Arsenal ran riot against Burnley to boost their hopes of Premier League title glory And the Germany international thinks hard work is paying off as they look to secure a first league title since 2004. "We are in a good moment, we have won all of the games so far so it feels good," he said. "Behind that was hard work and there are many hard games to come. We have to continue the hard work. "We wanted to start the game very well and we lacked that at West Ham. We wanted to change that so the early goal was very important to us. "We scored a few more good goals and we're happy with the win." Arsenal star Kai Havertz celebrates his goal in Burnley Premier League win Burnley midfielder Josh Brownhil, meanwhile, admitted his side weren't good enough as they crashed to another difficult defeat. "Overall it wasn't good enough at all. We can work as hard as we want but the quality wasn't there," he admitted. "Some of the goals weren't acceptable. We've shown we can compete against some of the top teams and today it didn't feel like we did. "The majority of the goals we could have done better. "Switching off when they had a throw-in, getting out to the ball at the edge of the box, I could go through them all. It looked too easy for them."

Imagination, that was this year’s theme at IMEX Frankfurt. We, the team behind the GDS-Index, took this theme to heart, by reimagining the future of the index. And on this journey, there were lots of new encounters, lots of busyness, but mostly, lots of fun. Welcoming to the team our newest addition, Noah, we dived right into the madness of IMEX for his first experience on the job. It all started on EduMonday, with our first session “Sustainability on Trial: Who’s responsibility is it?” Dressed up with wigs and gavel, Guy Bigwood moderated the debate as the barrister, while Petra Stušek (Managing Director of Ljubljana Tourism) and Nalan Emre (COO of IMEX) acted as the judges for this contentious issue. In a very fun and engaging manner, the judges ruled that both destinations and event organizers share the responsibility in driving sustainability in the tourism and events industry. The core take-away: collaboration and systemic thinking is key. These messages have profound meaning, and we seek to nurture this awareness throughout our networks. For the remainder of IMEX we were working on our new interactive whitepaper. We had the pleasure of travelling around the globe (or in this case Messe) to conduct interviews with the most innovative and impactful destinations in the GDS-Index. We started at Ljubljana, made our way over to Melbourne, traveled to Barcelona, before being treated to a nice and warm networking session around food waste at Thailand’s booth. Our journey then continued with one of our top destinations: Copenhagen, before venturing to speak with Kyoto followed by Bangkok, and to then be surprised by the new ‘Business is Green’ campaign by Monaco. We ended our IMEX travels with a bang, by interviewing Gothenburg, our star destination, Lausanne-Montreux, and IMEX itself. So, get ready for eye-opening insights, vivid inspiration, and useful tactics for change, and make sure to check out the whitepaper itself on 5th of June! To go one step further in improving our governance and transparency, we conducted our first meeting with our new Advisory Board, with representatives from each region, and each one of our founding partners. Having all of these esteemed minds of great imagination in one room has generated precious inputs on the evolution and growth of the Index. To make this experience even richer, we ran sessions about the cool ideas inspired by the SDGs to spice up events, with Events Industry Council (EIC), and shared information on destination sustainability with Katarina Thorstensson from Gothenburg, which included interventions from Monaco and Thailand. One of the most enjoyable parts of this experience was preparing you for our new communications campaign, with our business cards game… did you get see it? If not, we hope to share it with you the next time we see each other outside of these virtual confines. IMEX: always a crazy, wild, and vibrant experience! Until next time!

Project will be one of the largest electronic health record cloud migrations to AWS to date, expected to enable life-saving technologies and save Geisinger several million annually Geisinger will be one of the largest electronic health records migrations to AWS to date and is planning to transition the majority of its systems and applications to AWS. The decision comes after a detailed multi-year review and selection process that identified transitioning to AWS will assist Geisinger in saving several million annually after implementation is completed – cost savings that can be used to make investments that support Geisinger’s mission to make better health easier. In addition to the significant cost savings, Geisinger’s cloud migration to AWS will enable the healthcare system to develop new, innovative technological advancements in areas like artificial intelligence, machine learning and more that will help improve access to and quality of care. It will also enable teams to create workflow efficiencies for employees to increase productivity while streamlining and simplifying daily work. “This is more than migrating applications to the cloud,” said John Kravitz, Geisinger’s chief information officer. “We know that rapidly evolving technology, such as artificial intelligence and machine learning, can help save lives. Not to mention that this will make our staff more agile and responsive so they can spend more time at the bedside, where our patients need them most.” As part of the effort, Geisinger has also committed to comprehensive cloud skills training for the vast majority of its 24,000 employees. Training is already underway with many Geisinger employees, and the training will be ongoing over the next five years. “At the end of the day, everything we do at Geisinger is about making better health easier,” said Kravitz. “This effort is no different. Technology is something that enables us to carry out our vision. Migrating to AWS does just that. Being more nimble with technology development and deployment lets our teams focus on doing what they do best – providing compassionate, world-class, easily accessible healthcare to the communities we have the pleasure of serving.” "AWS is thrilled to collaborate with Geisinger to support their mission ‘to make better health easier’ for their communities,” said Phoebe Yang, General Manager, Health at AWS. “It's a privilege to enable their teams with power of the cloud to gain operational and clinical efficiencies, upskill their workforce, and ultimately enable the health and wellness of those they serve.” Geisinger is among the nation’s leading providers of value-based care, serving 1.2 million people in urban and rural communities across Pennsylvania. Founded in 1915 by philanthropist Abigail Geisinger, the nonprofit system generates $10 billion in annual revenues across 126 care sites — including 10 hospital campuses — and Geisinger Health Plan, with more than half a million members in commercial and government plans. Geisinger College of Health Sciences educates more than 5,000 medical professionals annually and conducts more than 1,400 clinical research studies. With 26,000 employees, including 1,700 employed physicians, Geisinger is among Pennsylvania’s largest employers with an estimated economic impact of $15 billion to the state’s economy. On March 31, 2024, Geisinger became the first member of Risant Health, a new nonprofit charitable organization created to expand and accelerate value-based care across the country.

Delta 9 gummies have become somewhat well-known as a fun and handy approach to ingest cannabis. Still, its popularity fuels a lot of false ideas and misunderstandings. Many health enthusiasts are turning to the best delta 9 gummies for a natural way to unwind and relax. This page attempts to dispel some of these misconceptions thereby enabling consumers to make wise choices. Myth 1: Delta 9 Gummies will immediately make you “High”. One of the most often held false beliefs about Delta 9 gummies is that they cause an instant high. Unlike smoking or vaping cannabis, which has almost rapid benefits, edibles like candies have to traverse the digestive system before their effects are noticed. Depending on several elements like metabolism, dosage, and personal tolerance, this procedure might last anywhere from thirty minutes to two hours. Using these products calls for patience most of all. Myth 2: Every Delta 9 Gummy Is the Same Not every Delta 9 gummy is made equal. Different brands and formulations abound in the market, each with varying THC and other cannabinoid concentration. Certain gummies might have supplementary components like terpenes, CBD, or other botanical extracts meant to affect the whole impact. To make sure the gummies they purchase match their intended effects, buyers must pay close attention to labels and grasp the particular composition of the gummies they wish for. Myth 3: Delta 9 Gummies are dangerous. Eating Delta 9 gummies raises safety questions most of the times. Although overconsumption might cause unpleasant side effects like anxiety or paranoia, these hazards are usually connected with too much use rather than the gummies themselves. Delta 9 gummies can be a safe choice for people looking for assistance from many disorders, including insomnia, anxiety, or chronic pain, when used sensibly and in moderation. Understanding one’s limitations is absolutely vital, as with any material. Myth 4: Delta 9 Gummies Legal everywhere Another area where misunderstandings are rife is legal status. Delta 9 THC is prohibited at the federal level in the United States even although some states allow it. Customers ought to know the local regulations around cannabis use and possession. Moreover, restrictions might differ greatly between states, thus it is essential to be updated about the particular laws controlling Delta 9 items in your jurisdiction. In essence, making wise decisions requires an awareness of the reality around Delta 9 gummies. By dispelling these misconceptions, customers will be able to approach their cannabis trip confident and clearly. The best delta 9 gummies can elevate your social experiences, making gatherings more enjoyable and fun for everyone involved.

Northallerton Baptist Church History Northallerton Baptist Church History up to 1912. Source=h:/!Genuki/RecordTranscriptions/NRY/BaptistChurches.txt NORTHALLERTON BAPTIST CHURCH The Church at Northallerton has a history the interest of which gathers about a young Baptist of the name of William Stubbins. He, believing he was divinely prompted to undertake evangelistic work, left Retford, in Nottinghamshire, in 1844, and went out not knowing whither he went. Directing his steps northward, he at last settled at Northallerton. Unknown, and without resources, he visited the sick and dying, and held cottage services, and, to provide for himself the bare necessities of life, opened a day school. In 1850, he bought a plot of land at Brompton, built a chapel, and gathered a Church of forty-five baptised believers.*In 1866, he bought from the Wesleyans of Northallerton their disused chapel, and for twenty-three years conducted on every Sabbath two services at Northallerton and one at Brompton. As age advanced upon him his congregations declined, until sometimes only one member would be present at the Communion service. Never losing heart, he constructed a baptistry in 1883, and built a small manse in which he lived until his death. After his funeral, the cost of which was defrayed by the sale of his furniture, it was found that the chapel had been mortgaged and the property was offered for sale. The Rev. T. G. Rooke, B.A., Messrs. Arthur Briggs and W. H. Bilbrough instructed Rev. J. Haslam (Secretary of the Building and Extension Fund) to purchase the chapel and put it in trust for the denomination. The total cost of its purchase and renovation, with the exception of a small loan from the Loan Society, was contributed by them and a few other friends. It was hoped to make Northallerton the centre of a group of village Churches, and the Rev. F. Allsop undertook their pastorate under the auspices of the Association, in 1896, remaining until 1903. In 1897, the premises were renovated, and in 1900, a manse was built. Mr. Allsop was followed by Rev. J. Young, who removed to Canada, in 1910, and the Church invited Mr. Powell to succeed him. * William Stubbins held very strong General Baptist convictions, which prevented him from federating the Northallerton Church with the Association. from the "Present Churches" section of The Baptists of Yorkshire by Rev. J. Brown Morgan and Rev. C.E. Shipley

If you have replaced your roof within the last 5 years please send PAID receipt for installation or a statement from a licensed roofer showing installation date/estimated age of roof to email@example.com Insurance Producer, Garcia Insurance Partner Giovani, Insurance Producer, supervises operations at our Metairie location and serves clients at both Garcia Insurance offices. A spanish speaker, Giovani writes new business and services existing clients. As many of Gio’s clients are small business owners, he is able to help them with both their business and personal insurance needs. Gio originally started his career in insurance after Hurricane Katrina in 2007. Originally from Guatemala, he finds it gratifying to do business with the local hispanic community and help those where language may be a barrier to understanding much about insurance. He enjoys spending time with each client explaining the insurance process and policies and finding a combination of coverage that is right for them. Gio admits that insurance can be frustrating in the greater New Orleans area as insurance carriers tend to be picky, but he works extremely hard to find the best insurance coverage he can for each client. When Gio moved to New Orleans 25 years ago from Guatemala, he immediately fell in love with the community. He loves that everything is so close and accessible, and of course he loves the food! Life Insurance, Garcia Insurance Partner. Erik began his career in the insurance industry back in 2001 working for a company that provided home, auto and life insurance. In 2004, he joined his father’s insurance practice and began specializing in life insurance and investments. After four years, Erik decided to pursue his passion of financial advising and began his own independent firm, Garcia Financial Group. The post-Katrina home insurance market posed many challenges to homeowners in the greater New Orleans region and in order to preserve relationships with long-time clients and to continue to serve the families of existing clients home insurance needs, Erik co-founded Garcia Insurance Services with his brother. Erik brings his business development background, financial planning and investment experience to the Garcia Insurance Team. He views working in the insurance industry as one of his advantages as a financial advisor, as it has helped him truly understand the full spectrum of the financial services industry. Erik can often relate to his client frustrations regarding the high cost of insurance in Southeast Louisiana; the feeling of “I am paying all this money for insurance and I will probably never need it”. However, He has seen houses rebuilt after flood and fire, lawsuits paid and life insurance proceeds providing for widows and children all because of insurance. Erik has lived in New Orleans his entire life and loves that New Orleans is one of the few cities that has a soul. He is married and has 3 children. Brenda Arenas is our administrator in the Metairie office. She assists clients with flood, car and home insurance. While she does admit to feeling frustrated with the amount of paperwork and details needed in order to keep her clients policies active, she appreciates the fact that insurance provides protection and support if there is an emergency that isn’t predicted. Brenda believes insurance is there to get clients back on their feet and give them comfort knowing they are protected financially. Originally from Guatemala, Brenda moved to New Orleans 16 years ago. Her favorite thing about living here, along with all the other Garcia Insurance employees, is the food! Another fun fact: Brenda is also a nail technician on the side. Tammy Contreras, Administrative Assistant,helps with many of the behind the scenes processes at the Garcia office including processing commissions, reconciling accounts, contracting , and other special projects.. She enjoys working in insurance because it makes people whole financially and helps people get back on their feet no matter how big or small the incident is–from a leak in the house to a full-blown disaster. Although Tammy does find it can be frustrating dealing with the various insurance carriers, she believes that insurance in Louisiana is a necessity. Tammy has been living in New Orleans for 13 years and loves the rich culture and of course, the food.

By Lara Gruye | Junior Board Member, Global Giving Project Lead GG Photo Contest Semifinalist NETwork Against Malaria thanks you, our donors, for your continued support of our organization. Through NETwork, the funds you donate are sent to the priest in Uganda, the nets are purchased and given to the girls in the schools who are trained to use the nets. In turn, the girls bring nets home to their families and teach them how to use the nets. NETwork Against Malaria stands out because of its great emphasis on education, especially for girls. Educating girls is not valued in Uganda, and NETwork works to change that. For this reason, NETwork was selected to participate in Global Giving's Girl Fund: a conglomeration of organizations who work to empower girls worldwide. In addition to GlobalGiving's Girl Fund, NETwork was selected as a semifinalist in the Photo Contest. You can see the selected photo attached to this report. Our efforts, thanks to your help, have raised awareness about the detrimental effects of malaria on both health and education of children in Uganda. We thank you for your continued support, and look forward to working together to eridicate this disease. There is a solution, and thanks to you, we are saving lives, supporting education, and empowering children in Uganda. In 2014, I volunteered in Katulikire clinic during the height of malaria season. The nets distributed to the students are essential because they become the nets used by mothers to protect themselves and their young babies, who will sleep under the net with their mother for a couple years, from malaria. That day some babies came in with malaria. One baby was anemic and dying, and we did not have the ability to treat him, so we referred him to the hospital. Another few could stay at the health center. Then, a mother who had given birth at 30 weeks was having convulsions and high fever. A blood smear was very positive. We started the treatment, gave fluids. Malaria is a huge cause of premature labor—maybe the greatest cause. The mom survived and took her tiny baby back to the village. Matina was everywhere. I would go to the health center, and there she was with a sister or a brother to greet me. I would go to the school, and she would be fetching water, and she would come to greet me. I would go to the market, and she would be there. I would walk back home. Of course, there she was. Matina became one of my favorite students. She was always smiling and she was always going out of her way to greet me. The sister told me that she struggles very much in school. Fortunately, she has received one of our nets, and she is using it. She is staying healthy and she is studying hard. I hope that Matina will have the opportunity to stay in school and to go to college. Such opportunities are rare for those in Katulikire, but for someone as personable as Matina I hope that her great personality, and ability to work hard provide her with the opportunity! For now, she is safe from malaria and in a great school. She is one of the best off girls in the village.

When Google moved to “work from home” due to COVID-19 in 2020, I was a Founder-in-Residence in Area 120, Google’s incubator for experimental products. I had spent the prior two years in Area 120 developing Kormo, a jobs marketplace for the “next billion users” in India, Indonesia, and Bangladesh. With time at home to revisit my passion for music and writing, I had a chance to reflect on my belief in creator entrepreneurship, and how to make it part of what I built next. After spending time with dozens of creators, we consistently heard that building a digital creator business is time-consuming and difficult. This sparked a new project idea: Qaya, a product that provides web storefronts for creators who want to sell products and services directly to their audiences. Today, as part of Area 120, we are announcing Qaya’s U.S. beta launch. Qaya is a small and agile team dedicated to helping creators build businesses on the web. Our project began with a simple idea: creators are the next generation of entrepreneurs. As the CEOs of their own businesses, they need the same commercial tools as any successful founder. Since we began live testing in early 2021, we’ve learned a lot from creators on Qaya, their fans and other creator economy projects. Creators on Qaya sell everything from trapeze workout guides to wellness training videos, photo filters, beat packs, ASMR read-alouds, productivity templates, knitting patterns and much more. We support pay-gated and free products, with tipping, subscription and other monetization types coming soon. Creators use Qaya as the hub for their business activity across the web. Many link to their Qaya storefronts from their social media bios, and showcase digital products they upload or products and services hosted on other sites. We provide custom yourname.channel or qaya.store/your-name URLs, with payment functionality built in. We also developed customer management and analytics tools that creators use to connect with their fans and understand sales and content performance. Lastly, we know it’s important for creators to grow their audiences. So we’ve started to integrate with other Google products, including YouTube’s Merch Shelf. If you’re an eligible YouTube creator, you can now promote products from Qaya directly below videos on your YouTube channel. We’re focused on the U.S. today, but hope to bring Qaya to more countries soon. And, we’re exploring ways to support creators as they experiment with other types of digital goods. Google has always invested in creators, from publishers on the early internet to YouTubers today. Our goal with Qaya is to explore new ways to continue this work: giving creators tools to build successful, owner-operated businesses on the web.

Deputy head of Residential Property, Kerry Sharples, recently called for contracts to contain a ‘clean and tidy’ retention clause – where a sum of money is held over until after completion to ensure all of the sellers possessions have been removed and also that the property is in a clean and tidy condition. When buying a residential property the contract between a buyer and seller will contain a special condition stating ‘the property is sold with vacant possession on completion’ `Many people assume that simply moving out of your property on completion, with your furniture and personal possessions is adequate and see no problem with leaving rubbish in the shed, Kerry advised, after compiling a list of some of the unusual items sellers fail to take with them on completion. Animals, ashes and fridges full of out-of-date food have been some of things greeting buyers, who then have to incur costs and the time to arrange removal of the possessions that don’t belong to them. If the costs incurred are under £10,000 they can potentially be recovered. Read Kerry’s article in full to learn more about the issue facing homebuyers.

Ambulatory surgery centers, or ASCs, provide same-day surgical care, including diagnostic and preventive procedures that were once performed exclusively in hospitals. Green Mountain Surgery Center (GMSC) seeks to optimize our patients’ experience through clinical quality, convenience, and cost savings. Patients who choose to have surgery in an ASC arrive on the day of their procedure, have their surgery in a fully equipped operating or procedure room, and recover under the care of highly skilled nurses, all without hospital admission. On average, our patients pay approximately 45% less than they would if they had the identical procedure performed at a hospital. These savings are reflected in patients’ co-pays and co-insurance. The lower cost of care in our facilities also helps lower total healthcare insurance premiums. GMSC offers patients easy scheduling (through our surgeon’s offices), convenient access and short wait times. Patient satisfaction is a hallmark of the ASC industry and GMSC consistently receives satisfaction scores of ¬95%. Many patients specifically cite that our staff are positive, professional, and work well together as a team. Successfully starting the first multi-specialty ASC in the state of Vermont. Attract high quality physicians from outside the state who want to perform surgeries at an ASC vs hospital. All surgeries at GMSC are scheduled, so your procedure will never be delayed due to an emergency surgery. Surgery centers often have low cross-infection rates because we don’t treat people with viral or bacterial infections. Because of our surgery schedule, we know exactly how many staff members we need to serve our patients each day. Never being understaffed means we can truly focus on our patients. Being smaller than an acute-care hospital allows us to really tend to our patients, giving them a relaxed, friendly environment to rest in and recuperate.

St Albert the Great - Fire Damage The Small Works were enlisted on this project to restore a recently vandalised youth centre to its former glory. The project included a thorough strip out of the building to remove any fire-damaged elements and completely refurbish the whole structure, including the outer roof. The building has been completely rewired, replastered, decorated, and has a new heating system. New windows have been installed, as well as a modest contemporary kitchen and WC. Unfortunately, the fire damage did extend to the outdoor areas, but a brand new shed has been assembled and outdoor canopy installed. We'd love to discuss your next project

The constant drive to cut costs by diverting work to workers from other countries leaves New Zealand workers increasingly vulnerable, Green Party industrial relations spokesperson Denise Roche said today. Sealord confirmed it will cut 70 factory jobs, 11 office-based jobs and another 30 contract workers at its Nelson wetfish factory. A significant number of the company's onshore jobs in Nelson could end up being carried out by Russians on Sealord's Ukrainian flagged vessels. "The loss of another 111 jobs from Sealord in Nelson is the latest example of businesses using cheaper foreign labour while local economies shrink," said Ms Roche. "Sealord's actions show just how vulnerable New Zealand's regional economies are. "Sealord and the other companies that export fish to China and other countries for further processing are wasting lives and economic potential, and the Government need to start looking at how to stop the slide. "Sealord's actions for short term gain misses the bigger picture regarding sustainably managing New Zealand's declining fishing stocks. "The current Quota Management System needs to be rejigged to a no waste sustainable fishing model with increased stocks and collectively managed marketing. "Alternatives to the current slash and burn approach in our fishing industry need to be urgently looked into so that our fish stocks and workers are protected," Ms Roche said. "Our local resources should support work in our regions."

Solid wood flooring fits all styles of decor while having durability, minimal maintenance, long life, and visual elegance. No items could be found with the selected filters. Please try your search again. Solid wood flooring fits in with all styles of decor, whether you have a rustic country cabin, a sleek industrial loft, or an eclectic look all your own. Its durability, minimal maintenance, long life, and visual elegance make it a top flooring pick year after year. Solid hardwood flooring consists of strips of hardwood, also known as planks, that are installed over a subfloor like concrete. Common species used in hardwood flooring include oak, birch, walnut, cherry, maple, and hickory, among others. Each wood type has its own coloration and grain pattern, as well as a degree of hardness, which influences its durability. Similar to shopping for a new car, you have several factors to consider when deciding on the visual features of your new solid wood floors. What plank style best suits your space: standard width or wide plank? What shade, undertone, and grain pattern best compliment your design aesthetic? Do you want a stained or finished floor? Light, natural hues like ash wood flooring can add a modern touch to your open-concept home while rich, darker woods like an espresso-stained hard maple floor deliver drama to your Victorian restoration. While any kind of hardwood has the potential to withstand average wear and tear for decades, the extent of hardwood’s durability varies by wood species. Hickory is the hardest and therefore most durable wood floor available, with white and red oak not far behind. Maintaining the natural strength and beauty of your hardwood floors is as simple as sweeping or vacuuming regularly. This keeps them free of the everyday debris that gets tracked in by family and pets and can accidentally scratch your floors. Always check with the manufacturer for care instructions specific to your flooring choice. Solid hardwood floors can easily last up to 100 years, which is one of the key reasons for their never-ending popularity. The longevity of your solid wood flooring will depend on a few aspects, including: There are several installation methods available for solid hardwood flooring, and the best option for you depends on the type of subflooring in your home. Nail-down and staple-down installations fasten planks to the floor while the glue-down method adheres the flooring to the subfloor with a strong adhesive. Although you may be interested in installing your own flooring, we recommend seeking the help of a professional flooring installer. An experienced installer will be able to catch potential installation issues that a DIYer may not. Identifying possible mishaps can ensure that your flooring is installed with the durability and lifespan that it's intended to have. Many professional installers also offer unbeatable installation warranties that will give you peace of mind. Solid wood floors are popular and have high value for a number of reasons: For all the pros that come with solid wood flooring, there are some downsides to consider: There are fundamental differences between solid hardwood flooring and its near identical engineered hardwood counterpart. There are several factors to consider when choosing between solid and engineered hardwood floors, including subfloor material and climate between these two options. Keep these questions in mind: Expert Tip: Engineered wood can handle higher relative humidity and in places solid hardwood can't, like kitchens, below-grade basements, and over radiant heating systems or concrete slabs. Yes! Solid wood flooring is a smart choice for many homes, especially if you’re looking for long-lasting durability in areas that don't see a lot of moisture, like your living room or bedroom. This really depends on what matters most to you. Among the most popular are red oak and white oak floors, chosen for their durability and simple, elegant wood grain. Hickory hardwood is the densest hardwood used in solid flooring, effortlessly resisting scratches and dings. It depends on your needs. Solid hardwood flooring lasts for several decades, wears well, and can be sanded and refinished as needed. But it doesn't work well in high moisture areas, which is where engineered hardwood shines. Engineered wood is perfect for all rooms, including bathrooms and below-grade locations like basements. Solid hardwood floors can last 100 years or more if you follow your product warranty guidelines to clean them regularly and quickly tend to spills. The standard thickness for solid hardwood floors is 3/4 inches, though modern wide planks in 5/16-inch and 1/2-inch are also available. Thank you for contacting Carpet One Floor & Home. Your local flooring expert will reach out to you regarding your inquiry.

This week, I volunteered to speak to the 8th grade English class at Spencerville Academy. I was kind of nervous, but God calmed my nerves and I was able to give a good presentation. I told them about my spiritual journey and where and what God had taken me through. There were a lot of ups and downs in my journey, but in the end, it made me into who I am today. The main thing I wanted the students to understand was that when you’re on your spiritual journey, you must cling to God because He’s the only thing that will make sense during that period. It’s going to be tough and you may get down on yourself when things don’t go the way you want them too, but you must persevere and hold on to God’s promises. At the end of the presentation, I shared with the class all of the Guides that I’ve ever written. They had lots of fun reading, I’m just glad God was able to use me to speak to His children. Is God using you to speak to people? Tell me about it in the comments section.

The war on Cancer has been a battle for ages. More and more celebrities are becoming advocates for Cancer awareness. Every day we are hearing about “new” progress on fighting #Cancer. Yet, it’s been hit or miss; Some make it and some don’t. Chemotherapy alternatives have been the hope of many. The rich and the poor face many of the same options. The more popular available options for those who can handle out-of-pocket costs become very expensive alternatives. Without question, a natural alternative approach would provide the best long term health outcome. Are we really paying attention to the natural options available? I know that in Jamaica for example, I’ve heard of people there getting rid of cancer like a common Cold or Flu. The use Guinea Hen Weed to naturally cure themselves. This is something that happens all around us on a regular basis globally. In one country, one particular natural cure may be dominant. In another country, a different natural cure may be popular. It’s the norm for them to use a bush or plant in the form of a tea to renew their health. Why is it that this information is not centralized globally? I have my theories on this. It’s not right or fair to those suffering. It is wrong to intentionally have people suffer in their health for others to gain wealth. We’ve heard many times before about celebrities having access to things that most of us don’t. The equilibrium of great health comes down to knowledge – Not Money or Fame! Celebrity cancer survivors : World Cancer Day 2015 World Cancer Day 2015 will take a positive and proactive approach to the fight against cancer…

Because of course we need to maintain healthy boundaries & self care, to avoid being drowned in other people's shizz/random collective drama -the better to maintain emotional & spiritual hygiene; so when we do choose to open up & connect we do it with maximum conscious integrity. Happy Full Moon folks, lets bliss out & make it wonderful x

We have now finished all the VCU trials of Innovar project. This makes a total of 42 trials for Core bread wheat and 12 Core durum trials, 18 drought and 12 organic trials in the frame of the project. Altogether, a total of 84 Innovar field trials have been completed. During the first two trial seasons, we observed that in some of the environments, the disease pressure was very low and in these, there were no significant differences between the three management treatments performed in the Core trials. Thus, additional trials on Nitrogen management were included during the third season, to determine the interaction between the level of nitrogen and disease not foreseen at the start of the project. Each trial comprised three set of varieties: the first set was common to all trials, the second was common for each ACZ and the last one was site-specific and each variety was tested under 3 fungicide/PGR management regimes: full, optimised and minimal. From all these trials, many data were collected. These included phenotypic, phenomic, climate and soil data. Phenotypic data covered thirty different phenotypic traits related to crop development and growth, disease and stress incidences, and yield related traits. Additional measurements related to yield components such as biomass and senescence were also recorded by several partners. Preliminary analysis of data indicated important GxE interactions and highlighted the best or worse adapted varieties to the different agroclimatic zones (ACZ) as well as the main climatic variables responsible for the variety’s behaviour in the ACZ. Phenomic comprised a total of 169 drone flights. Data were collected by the drones through Micasense sensors cameras at 10 different key growing stages. Different vegetation indexes related to photosyntetic activity, biomass development, nitrogen uptake has been obtained. Climate data have been collected through meteo-stations installed in the VCU trial sites. Soil sampling in the different trial sites have also been completed (base line, spatial sampling). All collected data have been incorporated to the Innovar database which is a valuable outcome of this project, for its use in the frame of the project and in the future by other researchers. Data already recorded have allowed to perform preliminary analysis regarding genomic predictions. This showed that across ACZs, Pannonian ACZ showed the highest predictive ability for most agronomic traits. Within ACZ and the particular environments, the predictive ability increased in most cases for yield. According to the models a preliminary classification of the varieties according to a High-Performance Low Risk Scale have also been developed. This classification is at the core of the development of the InnoVar App, linked to the InnoVar website and database, that will enable growers to make the most appropriate variety choices based on their farm location, climate and disease risk. The Innovar trial protocol has incorporated additional treatments compared to conventional VCU trialling to gauge sustainability of the varieties in trial. In addition, the trial design allows for statistical comparison between low- and high-risk scenarios, for example, with and without fungicide. Its potential to estimate variety’s sustainability traits is being determined with data generated from the core VCU trials. The comparison of the varietal performance across multiple ACZ and growing seasons will also give an indication of their resilience to a range of biotic and abiotic stresses. Preliminary revision of VCU protocols will include DUS/VCU crossover characteristics such as growth habit, ear emergence or plant height. Methods to incorporate traits for sustainability, resilience and DUS/VCU crossovers are being studied, as appropriate into revised VCU protocols. Overall, the VCU trials and the information we are obtaining from them, will contribute to create a powerful resource for ongoing research for a more efficient use of resources, a better understanding of the crop x environment interactions and the prediction of the variety’s responses to climate change.

Anfield, Liverpool’s home, is a temple to flamboyant attacking soccer powered by passion. In Klopp, Liverpool finally found a manager who embodied the essence of the club. Klopp is dynamic, expressive, restless, driven-he feels every move and play, every tactical shift, every contact on the field. His eyes betray a wild ecstasy and agony as his team thrives or falls. His game plan demands relentless commitment-the famous gegenpress-and he is one of the great personal motivators in all sport. Raphael Honigstein, author of Das Reboot and Budesliga correspondent for the Guardian, has interviewed Klopp and followed his career since his early years, and better than anyone knows how to “bring the noise” to his subject. "Honigstein digs deep to reveal a competitive, charismatic, and thoughtful man who-though prone to apologizing for mercurial outbursts-has in many ways outperformed his own limitations through hard work and passionate determination. The jury's still out on his accomplishments at the legendary LFC, but fans of European soccer should love this page-turning take on one of the most fascinating figures in the sport."Booklist - On Sale - Feb 6, 2018 - Page Count - 352 pages - Bold Type Books

TOGO ABOLISHES THE DEATH PENALTY June 23, 2009: Togo's parliament voted unanimously to abolish the death penalty. The vote was witnessed by Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, who has been campaigning for a global moratorium on the death penalty as a first step towards its total abolition. âThe Togolese parliament has raised a voice for justice and human dignity,â Zapatero said. And Justice Minister Kokou Tozoun said: "I think that it's the best decision that we took in this year... we don't have the right to give death to someone if we know that death is not a good thing to give." Togo stopped applying the death penalty more than three decades ago. The last executions of people sentenced to death date back to 1978 and the last death sentence was handed down in 2003. As of June 23, 2009, there were at least six convicts on death row. (Sources: Xinhua, 23/06/2009; BBC, 24/06/2009)

Build your own planetarium and rotate the constellation plate until it matches the date and time. Have the direction you are facing (North, South, East or West) pointed towards you, then use the chart to find out which constellations you can see in the sky. Keep track of the constellations in the night sky in both the Northern and Southern hemispheres simply by switching out the constellation plates. The word constellation comes from a late Latin term cōnstellātiō, which when translated means “set of stars”. These sets of stars are an area on the celestial sphere in which a pattern or outline can be seen. Usually in the forms of animals, inanimate objects or characters from mythology. There are 88 officially recognised constellations with asterisms being a subset of star patterns and positions used for navigation. Known as astronavigation, this process allows an individual to locate their position using sights or angular measurements between heavenly bodies. This practice was mainly used at sea but now in modern times we use GPS instead. The most accepted time for constellations to be noted and used by humans is from 3000 BC in Mesopotamia where they were discovered on clay tablets and inscribed on stones. Constellations appear in many ancient cultures including Babylonian, Sumerian, Egyptian, Persian, Greek and Chinese. *Timber parts, constellation plates *CHOKING HAZARD: Contains small parts.

Calls on COP26 International Leather Industry Calls on COP26 to Reduce Reliance on Fossil-Fuels, Prioritise Natural Materials Frankfurt am Main, Germany, 28 October, 2021 - The German Leather Federation (Verband der Deutschen Lederindustrie e.V.), along with 30 other international leather industry organizations, today called on the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP26) to prioritise natural materials as a means of directly mitigating climate impact. The “Leather Manifesto”, written by the organisations, challenges the COP26 to recognise the cyclical, climate-efficient characteristics of natural fibres and their potential to reduce the climate impacts of consumer products. “Natural fibres are part of the biogenic carbon cycle and as such are comprised of carbon that has been in the atmosphere for a millennia,” the Leather Manifesto states. “These readily available raw materials, when ethically and properly produced, are an important replacement for fossil fuels, reducing the need for its extraction and retaining more carbon in the earth. Furthermore, at the end of life, properly produced natural materials will biodegrade, limiting their impact and mitigating harmful emissions, such as microplastic pollution, often associated with synthetic materials.” The Manifesto further notes that natural materials, such as leather, are often dismissed through a lack of understanding of the manufacturing process and its supply chain, or through the application of questionable science generally in the form of incomplete and incomparable or outdated Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs). Alternative materials, often fossil fuel-based synthetic alternatives, use this confusion to make unsubstantiated claims about their sustainability. "Leather, a natural material, one of the first upcycled products in the long history of mankind, will continue to play an important role in the circular economy, if we don't forget the connections." About German Leather Federation (Verband der Deutschen Lederindustrie e.V.) German Leather Federation - represents the interests of the leather industry in Germany and neighboring countries, is a member of COTANCE, the Confederation of National Associations of the European leather industry.

Rachel Weisz never puts a foot wrong when it comes to fashion, and proved so once again on Saturday night as she stepped out in Cannes. The Hollywood star - who is married to Daniel Craig - looked phenomenal in a strapless midnight blue gown embellished in sequins, as she posed on the red carpet at the 6th Cannes International Festival. Rachel styled her brunette hair in loose waves and opted for a natural makeup look, with a bold lip. The pair welcomed their child in 2018 but very little is known about her. In addition, Rachel shares her son, Henry, with her former partner, director Darren Aronofsky, while Daniel is also a father to 31-year-old daughter Ella from his previous marriage to actress Fiona Loudon. The pair split their time between London and New York City, and are notoriously private when it comes to their family life. Rachel opened up to The Guardian about the idea of being famous, and how she considers herself. "Celebrity – it really doesn’t mean anything to me. And it's no work at all to keep not showing up at events. It's no work at all, to keep a private life. Life can be demanding, life in a family can be complicated but I don’t even know what 'celebrity' means. I don't think of myself like that," she said. On balancing her busy work life with being a parent, she added: "When you have kids you do have to concentrate more on not bringing it home. And it is a skill to learn, that discipline. I think personally, it’s a skill that’s made me better at my job and better at my life – keeping the two very separate." Previously, Rachel also revealed why she kept her marriage to Daniel a secret. She told More magazine: "He's just too famous. It would be a betrayal. You have to protect your marriage. "When you're young, you tell your girlfriends everything. One of the great pleasures of not being an adolescent is that you don't have to share everything. When you're married, that door closes. The audience goes, and you're in your own life."

29th June 2015 I guess I should not be surprised that my computer was hacked again last night and access to Internet Explorer blocked. Fortunately, after the previous hacking attack I keep my website hardware and software totally separate and all the net at all times except when downloading an update. A few interesting bits of information have been brought to my attention. One is that Gilead actually donates to many (not all) of the major Hep C advocacy groups around the world, tens of thousands of dollars to each group and who knows how much to certain people with those groups. So if you contact your local Hep C advocacy group about getting Indian meds don’t surprised if they throw you the “Indian medication is dangerous, fake and illegal.” It is all rubbish. My own experience, since entering the world of Hep C advocacy, is that none of my local Hep C advocacy groups have ever replied to an email I sent. Not even once. That applies to mainland Australia and Tasmania. I know this might sound like a paranoid rant but it is my experience, but please make up your own mind what is going on. But think about the billions and billions of dollars Gilead is making from the combined suffering of millions and millions of human beings around the world. Don’t expect anything much from me today. I have got the worst attack of Man Flu in recorded history. It turns out that you can not take Aspirin with ribavirin; it thins the blood too much, which explains why I spitting up globs of blood this morning. Next time check medication compatibility dummy. I am answering emails, seeking sympathy and sleeping... that is it for today!

Lil Uzi Vert Previews New Music Amid Playboi Carti Beef Lil Uzi Vert is teasing more new music as fans remain confused about an alleged feud with Playboi Carti. Uzi took to Twitter late last night to preview a new track, which you can check out below. Are Playboi Carti and Lil Uzi Vert beefing again or readying to drop a new collab? That seems to be the question on everyone's mind this morning after a confusing exchange on Twitter last week that suggested both artists might drop new music today. It kicked off after Playboi Carti dropped his new song "@ MEH." Shortly after the release, Uzi tweeted the cover and captioned it "Just Meh." It's not clear whether it was a playful joke or if Uzi was pouring salt in old wounds. Take a look below. Back in March, following the release of Eternal Atake, Uzi tweeted, "Soon as He drop imma drop again," in what is widely considered to be a provocation to Carti. In response to Uzi's "Just Meh" tweet, Playboi Carti tweeted "MoNDay." To which Uzi responded “so u dropping Monday Bet it,” before mocking him with an identical "MoNDay" tweet. So far it's unclear if the exchange reflects their ongoing beef, or if this is a more amicable, orchestrated undertaking. As of this morning, Uzi has tweeted a snippet of an apparently unreleased track, suggesting that he will drop it if Playboi Carti comes good on his "MoNDay" tweet. Listen below. Meanwhile, neither rapper has yet to officially release a new track and the Internet is getting impatient. Scroll down for the best Twitter reactions.

Sprucing up the yard I’m still at it! I’m still sprucing up the yard here and there as I get a little time. This weekend I spent time on the perennial gardens. With the garden rototilled and settling, I turned my attention to the perennial gardens. By the time I finished one of them became an expanded perennial garden with room for annual vegetables and flowers. There’s so much work in setting up a homestead and making it our own that adding beauty can be lost in the shuffle. As good as it felt to have the garden prepared and ready to plant, working in the flower gardens was rewarding. It’s a small start to all that needs to be done to my new plots (remember that I’ve been here just over a year) but looking out the window this morning and seeing flowers that weren’t there 24 hours ago made me smile. Sprucing up the yard has had a fast return in smiles. I moved Johnny Jump Ups, a self-seeding annual, to the expanded garden, right by the back porch. It was overcast yesterday when I uprooted the clump and divided them. Soon after I put down the shovel for the day, the sky opened up and poured on the newly transplanted flowers. It’s overcast and drizzling today and for the next two days, perfect weather for transplants to settle in. Before the end of the season I’ll leave a few flowers instead of dead-heading and let them go to seed. Over the years the colors will change as the number of generations grow. This peony survived transplanting and winter and established its roots well. It will take a few years to grow before it flowers. I divided one plant into three. When they fill in and blossom together they’re be beautiful. When I’m sprucing up the yard next year I’ll probably need to add support for the peonies. Or at least I hope they grow that much in a year. This bleeding heart has been here for a very long time. It might have been one of the original plants in the perennial garden. It was overgrown, its root a massive, woody, hollow mess. There’s only one thing to do when it’s that bad – break it up with a spade, dig holes, amend the soil and split it up. I might have been a little too harsh. This and one tiny other shoot have come back. This is the original plant. So be it. It didn’t bloom last year and it might not this year but next year, it will be beautiful again. I’ll weed this bed when the rain stops, and I’ll be looking for other plants that might still pop up. It was nice to find the chives growing. I use a lot of them in cooking, dips and on baked potatoes. I divided the clump, spread them out and will pass one section on to a friend when she visits later this week. I bought an oregano plant at a garden show but I’m not sure it’s going to survive. It’s out there and now I want to see what happens. I ran out of oomph by the end of the afternoon. These pansies are waiting for me. They’ll be just fine right there for a few days as long as I remember to take them out of the tray. What’s growing in your perennial gardens? Are you adding annuals to fill space or because you like them?

A salivary gland scan is a nuclear medicine test that evaluates the function of the salivary glands. These glands include the parotid and submandibular glands, located on both sides of the neck just below the ears and under the jaw. Salivary gland function is assessed by the pattern of uptake and secretion of a radioactive tracer, technetium 99. Salivary gland scans can help evaluate patients with persistent symptoms of a dry mouth. They are also utilized to evaluate salivary gland swelling due to either infection, inflammation, or obstruction. Salivary gland scans are safe. The level of radioactivity used to obtain the images is low. However, women who are pregnant should not have this test unless absolutely necessary. If you are breastfeeding, the physician performing the test will advise you on the duration of time needed to elapse before you can resume nursing your child. The salivary gland scan, also called parotid gland scintigraphy, is a non-invasive test. It is typically performed in a hospital nuclear medicine department or out-patient radiology facility. You will receive an injection of a low-level radioactive marker and will be positioned in front of or under a gamma scintillation camera, which detects the radiation and produces an image. Imaging typically begins immediately after the injection to observe the progressive accumulation of the radioactive tracer in the glands. After 45 minutes you will be given a lemon drop, or a similarly sour substance, to stimulate the emptying of the salivary glands. Another set of images is then made for comparison purposes. The procedure takes about 60 minutes. No special preparations are needed for this test. It is not necessary to fast or to restrict medications before testing.

New figures show B.C. leading Canada in new construction during April 2024, but the numbers tell only part of the story. The value of building permits in B.C. rose by 81.8 per cent that month compared to March -— well ahead of Canada's overall increase of 20.5 per cent and the second-ranked province of Newfoundland and Labrador with 45.1 per cent. Neighbouring Alberta recorded an increase of 9.4 per cent, while Canada's two largest provinces -- Ontario and Quebec -- recorded increases of 8.8 per cent and 9.7 per cent respectively. Building permits issued B.C. in April 2024 totalled 3.13 billion -- up $1.4 billion from March -- and created a record-high 7,521 residential units — up almost 78 per cent compared to the previous month. Based on these figures, B.C. accounted for almost 28 per cent of all new residential units in the country in April. Much of the growth happened on the multi-residential side. Of the new residential units created in April 2024, 95 per cent were multi-residential units. Much of the new activity happened in Vancouver Census Metropolitan Area (CMA) with Surrey and Coquitlam having issued significant multi-residential permits. Other strong regional gainers were Chilliwack, Victoria and Nanaimo. B.C. also led the country in non-residential construction as part of what Statistics Canada calls "broad-based growth." But these figures should also be read with caution. The value of building permits and new created residential units can fluctuate significantly from month to month based on any number of factors, including weather. Year-to-year, Statistics Canada records 57,788 residential units created between April 2023 and April 2024, slightly less than the 58,383 created between April 2022 and April 2023. High interest rates coupled with various shortages have hampered construction across B.C. and Canada for the last year or so, but the Bank of Canada recently lowered a key interest rate with experts predicting that this cut will be part of a cycle. Experts have also praised the recent slew of housing policies, but have also cautioned against quick, immediate changes.

John Metchie III only arrived in Houston a few months ago, but his relationship with Houston Texans Offensive Coordinator Pep Hamilton spans back to his high school days. Hamilton worked hard to recruit the young wideout to the University of Michigan, where he served as passing game coordinator for two seasons (2017-18). "I thought it was a great relationship, until he decided to go to Alabama instead of Michigan," Hamilton said. All jokes aside, there were no hard feelings for Hamilton. He continued to follow Metchie even though he committed elsewhere. "I was always excited to see Metchie play when we watched him play when he was at Alabama," Hamilton said. "You root for the good guys." Fast forward to 2022, the two would cross paths again after the Texans drafted Metchie in the second round (44th overall) of the NFL Draft. Last season, Metchie ranked in the top 10 in the FBS in receptions (96) while accumulating 1,142 receiving yards (11.9 ave) and eight touchdowns. "You go back and you look at what he was able to do at a high level in college football," Hamilton said. "You go out and want to project how his skillset will translate to the NFL game. That's a big reason that he's in our building. Spending a lot of time with John Metchie when he was in high school as well. He's a high character young man and we expect that he'll hit the ground running whenever he's available." Currently, Metchie has been working his way back from knee surgery. He tore his anterior cruciate ligament during the Dec . 4 SEC Championship last year. While he didn't participate in OTAs, Head Coach Lovie Smith was optimistic that the rookie was "close" to hitting the necessary benchmarks to return. When healthy, Hamilton believes Metchie can be a dynamic player in the Texans offense. According to Pro Football Focus, Metchie recorded 640 yards after the catch in 2021 (6th among Power 5 WR) and 270 receiving yards after contact in 2021 (5th among Power 5 WR).

Meet the Boss is a How we made it in Africa interview series in which we pose the same 10 questions to business leaders across the continent. Salim Anjarwalla, managing director, African Cotton Industries (Kenya) 1. What was your first job? In my younger days I was a scout and we would clean windows for Ksh. 10. I was about ten at the time. The money would go to the Scouts Association. Later in life I qualified as an accountant and worked for an international organisation in the UK. 2. Who has had the biggest impact on your career and why? I have never thought of that. I never planned to come back into a family-run business but circumstances led to this. I am quite a content person. I can’t think of anybody. Yes I was very career minded and I enjoy engineering work but was there some event or somebody who was doing the same who really inspired me to be someone like that? Honest opinion, no. 3. What parts of your job keep you awake at night? New opportunities; I feel excited if there is a new opportunity. I am usually quite impatient so I like to make things move fast. I go full out, work long hours and try to get that implemented. I like to get it done as quickly as possible. 4. What are the top reasons why you have been successful in business? I am very conservative. I am not necessarily a high risk taker. If there is some opportunity I will look at it at least five or six times and mull over it. I will not just jump. I think as part of that conservative approach I don’t believe in miracles. If somebody says this thing is available at a [too low] price I will be suspicious. In my own way I think I am also quite innovative, be it in making small changes in the manufacturing process or distribution or in terms of how to cut costs. 5. What are the best things about your country, Kenya? The thing I like most about the country is the people. Kenyans are very friendly, very patient despite whatever happens in the country and they are very accepting. From a business perspective… when you want to know what they feel about your product they will very openly give you feedback straightforward. 6. And the worst? It has got to be the corruption and poor governance. 7. Your future career plans? At my age I still have a long way to go, hopefully. I have got three sons who studied abroad and they are all coming back to join the company. I will share my experience and knowledge in helping them develop the business further. As I told you initially I am quite a content person. I am not somebody who wants to work 24 hours, seven days a week. I will still participate in the business, but in partnership with the young blood. I am very excited about that. 8. How do you relax? I play some sports. I go to the gym. I also enjoy watching certain programmes and taking long walks. 9. What is your message to Africa’s young aspiring business people and entrepreneurs? We have challenges [in Africa] but I think there are amazing opportunities coming up. I think the youth should be conscious of their strengths and weakness and concentrate on improving themselves. You should also be customer focused in whatever business you do. One most important thing we often forget is knowledge. Get knowledge, it is much more easily available today through the internet. Most people get excited about going into business because they have one skill set, which they feel can make the whole business grow. But you need to understand many skill sets, so slow down a little bit, and get more knowledge and understanding about whatever business and industry you are going into. 10. How can Africa realise its full potential? It all comes down to the top leadership. We need good leadership because everybody else is so busy trying to make ends meet. Salim Anjarwalla is the managing director of African Cotton Industries, a Kenyan-based manufacturer of products such as ear buds, sanitary towels, toilet paper and cotton wool.

I gave it to the Longbottom boy, don't you remember? Magical Water Plants of the Mediterranean. It would have told you all you needed to know about gillyweed. -- Barty Crouch Jr./The Fake Moody (GF35) Magical Water Plants of the Mediterranean is a guide to magical marine plants. The fake Moody gave Neville a copy of this book after the first Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson of Neville's fourth year; it discusses gillyweed (GF14) Fake Moody (Barty Crouch Jr.) wanted Harry to win every task in the Triwizard Tournament in order to lead him to Voldemort, and he knew the Second Task involved diving underwater. So the plan was that Neville would read the book then suggest gillyweed as a solution. However, Harry never asked Neville for help, so fake Moody/ Barty Crouch Jr. made sure that Dobby the house-elf overheard a conversation about gillyweed between himself and Minerva McGonagall in the Staff Room. Always helpful, Dobby stole the gillyweed from Snape's potions closet and gave it to Harry (GF26, GF27, GF35). Snape was so upset that both gillyweed and Polyjuice Potions ingredients were missing, that he threatened to put Veritaserum in Harry's pumpkin juice (GF27). In the end, Dumbledore told Snape to give Veritaserum to the Fake Moody and the truth came out (GF35).

Name: Jess Insall Job: Financial Accountant, Steedman & Co Class of: 2020 What do you do? I am a Financial Accountant with specialist knowledge of cryptoassets and blockchain technology. I work with a range of start ups and individuals on technical and data analysis projects, as well as HMRC/FCA crypto compliance. How did you get to where you are today? Leaving HSOG after fifth year, I joined Johnston Carmichael as an Audit Assistant through their school leavers’ program. Working in an auditing capacity gave me a really good grounding in accounting, but when the opportunity came up to get involved in the crypto space I couldn’t turn it down! I started my current job with Steedman & Co in June 2022. Working in such a fast paced industry has given me the opportunity to speak at conferences, meet loads of interesting people, and learn a huge amount about how technology and innovation works. One of the best things about working in accountancy is the focus on professional development. Both my former and current employers have supported me through my ACCA exams, and I hope to qualify as a Chartered Accountant later this year. What is a standout memory of your time at The High School of Glasgow? I have always been someone who likes to keep busy, and the number of extra curricular activities at the High School made that pretty easy! The music department in particular was always such a lively place to be. What one piece of advice would you give to current pupils and recent leavers as they look to their futures? Think for yourself! It can be daunting choosing a path that is different than everyone else’s, but so worth it to build the life that you want for yourself. I have really enjoyed rolling up my sleeves and getting stuck into work straight out of school. It’s such a satisfying feeling being financially independent, and I’m so grateful to have a job that I love.

CAST IRON BATHS The genuine re-enamelling of a cast iron bath for restoration, renovation and re-conditioning purposes is a very specialised process. There are some companies that advertise and offer a home re-enamelling service, but this is not genuine vitreous enamel and is in fact a type of paint. This is a shorter-term solution, but it is not as hard or durable as genuine vitreous enamel. Genuine vitreous enamel is a type of glass, which is fused at high temperatures to achieve its unique combination of hardness and durability, which is unmatched by other finishes. Re-enamelling will involve shot blasting to remove the existing enamel, followed by specialist welding if there is any damage or heavy rusting, for example around the plug hole. It will then be coated with up to three layers of vitreous enamel. Each layer will be fused to the surface by heating in a furnace to a temperature greater than 750 degrees centigrade. It is this genuine vitreous that gives the long-life that is expected of a cast iron bath and returns them to their former elegance.

STEEL COMPANIES LIKELY TO TAKE EARLY ANNUAL MAINTENANCE SHUTDOWNS AMID UNVIABLE EXPORTS, STOCK PILE UP News: As per media sources, steelmakers are expected to cut production next month by advancing annual maintenance shutdowns to regulate inventory, amid a fall in domestic demand and due to the new export duty that has made international sales unviable. Views: Around 22% decline in steel prices since its peak in April 2022 has made buyers wary of holding inventory in anticipation of further price corrections. Traders and user industries of steel had dipped into their stocks. Once those got depleted, they are buying only as much as they need immediately. Consumption of steel has also come down as the seasonally slow period of monsoon arrives. As per media sources, all these factors have resulted in piling up of unsold inventory with steel mills, forcing them to advance annual maintenance shutdowns or even pare production by taking multiple smaller production halts of two to three days. Usually steel companies take 15-25 days shutdown in September or October, when domestic demand is low. However on the back of the current challenging situation many steel companies are likely to take annual maintenance shutdown in the coming month itself.

After their pictures, now it’s their beautiful love story that is going viral over internet. While sharing the love story, Dr. Paromita mentioned how she first met Dr Surbhi at a mental health conference in Kolkata. Surbhi was one of the speakers at the event that Paromita attended. Paromita expressed her wish to talk to Surbhi at the conference, however, with the latter having to return to Nagpur, keeping in touch would have been difficult. This is when Surbhi shared her Instagram id with Paromita, marking the beginning of their cute love story. However, for Paromita, it wasn’t love at first sight. “It was just an infatuation.” “I decided that we would go on a trip to the beach with our friends. I told her the plan and asked if I would propose to her there in front of everyone, would she reject me? She said, ‘No, why would I do that?’ So, I got my answer. So, the proposal that was supposed to happen on a beach in Goa or Mumbai turned into a grand commitment ceremony,” Paromita added. Opening up about her family, Paromita said, “My father knew about my sexual orientation since 2013. When I told my mother recently, she was shocked. But later, she agreed because she wants me to be happy.” Fortunately, Surbhi Mitra, who is a psychiatrist by profession, did not face any opposition from her family. “There was never any opposition to my sexual orientation from my family. In fact, when I told my parents, they were happy. I’m a psychiatrist and many people talk to me about living a dual life because they couldn’t take a stand for themselves,” said Surbhi. The couple plans to get married by 2022-end or the beginning of 2023. Like the ring ceremony, the couple has named their wedding ceremony “Civil Union.” How netizens showered their love over the couple show our society is opening to same sex marriages. As they say Love is blind and knows no status, religion or gender.

For those who are intending to go forward with a best intervention , the formation from the correct intervention workforce is important on the results on the method. You might have only one chance to persuade the addict to accept treatment method and it’s important to obtain the right combination of folks present in the drug intervention to maximize your possibilities of good results. It’s important to assemble a group when confronting an addict due to the fact most addicts are adept at defusing one-on-one discussions concerning the necessity for cure. For those who know any person that’s or has endured through the disorder of dependancy, you might be all way too familiar with the annoyance of one-on-one confrontations with the addict wherever you’ve got experimented with to persuade him to check in to procedure.. Extra than likely, you ended these discussions feeling discouraged, indignant and helpless, though the addict continued with their disorder. The reality is usually that addicts are gifted when it comes to their defense mechanisms. They’re going to lie, manipulate, deflect, decrease, rationalize, and just do about anything they are able to to safeguard their disease. The presence of the group of good friends and close relatives tends to diffuse the addict’s high-quality tuned defenses and place him in a position to acquire the messages of love and problem. The intervention team needs to be comprised of people who love the addicted pal or loved one and who have direct knowledge with their working with conduct. If at all possible, seem for people that the addict respects and will pay attention to. The intervention workforce variety process may well become a complicated buy because addicts oftentimes demolish relationships. If I learn that a relatives is having a hard time arranging a drug intervention crew, I will request the question who’d show up at the addict’s funeral if he died through the disease? As morbid as which will audio, it’s the inclination to drive residence the significance of the intervention as well as reality that folks die from your ailment of drug dependancy. Once a drug intervention team has long been assembled, the staff has to be produced mindful that the drug intervention should be absolutely devoid of anger and resentments that could are brewing resulting from your addict’s behavior. I remind them that it is properly standard to own individuals emotions, however, if they take place to surface throughout the drug intervention, the method might be sabotaged. The most effective remedy for these kinds of thoughts emanating within the drug intervention group is for the team members to procedure those feelings at one more location for instance a therapist’s office or Al Anon. The tone on the intervention need to be calm and depending on like and compassion with the eye toward the solution of cure. Preparation for your intervention is important. You’ll find many difficulties to take care of during the setting up course of action including day, time and placement of your drug intervention, variety of treatment method facility, the best way to insure the addict will go to, what takes place in the event the addict bolts outside of the home, likely objections to remedy voiced by the addict, as well as a big selection of other factors way too prolonged to checklist inside a transient write-up.

What you need to know - Apple is reportedly behind on its prototyping schedule for Apple glasses. - It isn't clear whether that's Appel Glass, or its mixed reality headset, however. The paywalled report says that P2 prototype testing of "AR glasses" was expected in the first quarter of this year, but that Apple hasn't met that schedule. However, it isn't clear how much credence we should give this report. DigiTimes' use of the word "glasses" would suggest that it's talking about Apple Glass, an AR device that is thought to be a number of years away from production. The device that had been rumored for a 2021 announcement is actually a different one altogether – a mixed reality headset. It's possible that DigiTimes is simply getting its wording wrong, however. Apple Glass, a new type of product that will piggyback off of an iPhone in a similar way to the non-cellular Apple Watch Series 6, is thought to be something more ambitious than a mixed reality headset. For that reason, we've heard suggestions that Apple Glass won't be ready until 2025 at the earliest. With all of this in mind, I suspect that DigiTimes is actually talking about that mixed reality headset, a device that will be similar to existing virtual reality headsets but with cameras attached so as to also offer augmented reality features and capabilities.

Reflecting on all the isolation, And social disintegration. This has affected every nation. It has been a tough year. There have been some kind reactions. With society torn in fractions. People sought their own distractions. During this tough year. Families have been separated. Many folks feel tired, frustrated. This COVID trash is really hated, And given us a tough year. Many people are chatting online. For others, the phone is their lifeline. At the end of this tunnel light will shine. When normality can reappear. ©2021, Jeannie Starr

The chief cooking influence on the Indian cuisine is the result of the noteworthy chronological raids by the Greeks, Mughals, British and the Portuguese. The lavish Indian Culture is the outcome of the affluent and diverse food mixed with the unmatched hospitality of the people. Indian dishes are simply irresistible and splendid. Visitors from any part of the world simply fall over them and treat their appetites. India is famous for its spices that can add flavor to any kind of dish. The variety of ingredients when blended with countless perfumed spices create delightful and mouth watering dishes. These dishes are very different in taste, color, appearance and texture because of the differences in areas. The magic lies in the skillful mixing of the varied spices which can tickle anyone’s appetites. Each country offers dishes of its own style. So is India. The ingredients used in the Indian cuisine are simply endless. Some of them are herbs like coriander; garlic, ginger, cardamoms, cinnamon, cloves, asafetida and aniseed are included in the dishes in a variety of mishmash and savors. Unlike many countries, salt, pepper and chilies are put in the dishes while they are in the process of being cooked and not sprinkled over when finished. Almost half of the Indians are vegetarians therefore majority of the dishes are prepared using milk, milk products like curds, cheese and ghee. The common food of India comprises of rice, maize and wheat which are basically called cereals. Wheat is consumed largely by the North Indians whereas rice becomes common dish amongst the South Indians. What is common in both is Curry and Dal. Of course, the methods of preparation differ here too and a variety of dishes can be prepared from these ingredients. The people have varied eating habits too depending on place to place. In India one can find numerous beverage types from place to place. Indians are totally crazy about sweets. If they could afford, then it is mandatory for them to have some sweets along with their meals on a regular basis. The Indian sweets are hand made and again include loads of ingredients in them which make them simply delicious. And they are so good in appearance that if you cast a glance over them you cannot resist the temptation of gulping them down your throat. Indian food can be broadly divided according to the four different regions i.e. North, West, East and South. Each of the regions offers its own range of delicacies. One needs to have a large appetite to taste them all. Next comes the spices, known to be the magical ingredient in any king of Indian food. Some of the most commonly used are asafetida or hing, clove or laung, cardamom or elaichi, cinnamon or dalchini, coriander or dhania, cumin seeds or jeera, ginger or adrak, garlic or lahusan, turmeric or haldi, chilly (green and red) or mirch and lots of various peppers. There are various breads that India has to offer like parantha, roti, naan and many more. The best part is, all of these breads have different tastes and are prepared in different ways.Indian delicacies do not come to an end after a meal but there is a special ‘Paan’ which is people consume after they have had their meals. It is nothing special basically, just a betel leaf rapped around some ingredients.

there were over 50 people there at the SUMAC centre. There were workshops where the people were broken up into three different groups: There was feedback, both of us introduced ourselves and contributed at various stages of the workshops and debriefings. In the afternoon the three workshops were: Technology/IT - Networking - Taking Action Both of us decided 'Taking Action' is where we wanted to be, the group wrote up it's agenda for discussion. Our group contained a lot of very passionate debate, it was also quite obvious at various times during the day that many are still unaware of the wide ranging effects of the National ID register comments such as it's a Big Brother policy were heard. We both made the point about needing a national day of action. A few suggested we didn't want a march around London as that seemed quite futile, however there was a lot of support for a national day of action, even if that would be a simultaneously day of action in our localities. The 'Taking Action' group voted for such a proposal. Other issues that raised were the finger printing of school children. The major issue of concern raised under the 'time scale' agenda item were the interrogation centres which through the day appeared to be the major concern in addition to the recognising the most vulnerable ie pensioners and children need serious support. One of the point raised in discussion was that anti-ID movement needed to be much bigger as the National ID Register will impact upon various other campaign groups, as ID will be able to be used to track political campaigners. The following link was mentioned to me in relation to the school based finger printing of children, which is attracting a lot of parental opposition here in Liverpool. The afternoon summary session raised many issues, the national day of action was again discussed, a few people were pushing for this, there were people digging their heels in saying there aren't enough people to organise a day action, when in actual fact 50+ people was three times the people we had at the Manchester gathering. A few of us wanted a vote for a national day of action on a particular day which none of us could agree on, April 1st, May day, St.Georges Day, etc. So an English 'compromise' was thrown up, three suggestions made and a vote had. I'm not entirely sure what we voted for, though I was told it was for a future national day of action. With the 69 interrogation centres being the focus for anti-ID protests it was suggested that due to the gaps in our defy-ID members we needed to organise on a regional basis, for example in the North West we have two strong bases in Liverpool and in Manchester, yet in other parts of the country there aren't members in town or cities with interrogation centres.

Australian scientists have reported they are overworked and underpaid in a large annual survey of the local sector which shows fatigue climbing and morale dropping as job losses and insecure work bite during the pandemic. The two peak groups, Professional Scientists Australia and Science & Technology Australia (STA), surveyed nearly 1300 of their members on salaries and workplace conditions, and say the alarming results show the need for long-term research funding from the federal government. “There is a grave risk that more of our brilliant science talent looks at that uncertainty and hits a breaking point and decides to exit science,” STA chief executive Misha Schubert told InnovationAus. “They may pursue different careers and not fully deploy their science training where the Australian public have invested so heavily. [Or] it may be that many of them go overseas, particularly when we’ve seen scientists with highly specialised skills lose their job in the research sector in Australia.” According to the survey, a full-time scientist in Australia is paid a base salary of just under $119,000 a year, with a total package of around $135,000. But wage growth has slowed in the last year and is now well below cost of living rises, while around one in four scientists are on fixed contracts of 18 months on average. Less than half the scientists surveyed said they were satisfied with their current level of remuneration while over one-third were dissatisfied. There is a gender pay gap of 17.2 per cent in scientific work in Australia, according to the results. Nearly two-thirds of scientists reported lower morale in the last 12 months after less than half reported it in last year’s survey. Fatigue has also gone up significantly, now reported by more than 70 per cent of the scientists surveyed. The findings come amid fears of further job losses across the university sector, after modelling showed at least 17,000 jobs lost at universities in the first year of the pandemic. “Every hour or day or week that a scientist spends worrying about whether they have a job in the very short term future is an hour or a day or a week that they’re not spending finding a cure for a rare childhood disease, working out how to stop species loss or helping Australia to make the transition to a clean energy future that science tells us we must make,” STA’s Ms Schubert said. The science groups, which between them represent more than 90,000 scientific and technical professionals, warn the alarming results show more than the widely felt COVID-19 pressures. The pandemic and its resulting job losses across the research and education sector has accelerated the effects of structural problems in Australian science like a lack of job security, particularly for early career scientists, Ms Schubert said. “We’ve seen the pincers of the pandemic and precarious work squeezing the science workforce in Australia. Right at a time when the role of science and the value of science has been visible to Australian public … We need to do more and better to safeguard the job security of Australia’s scientists, particularly in their early years, because these people are the future of the profession.” Ms Schubert said the federal government could address much of the pressure with secure, long-term funding and better job security in public institutions, while employers need to put science careers on a more secure footing, noting the former would make the latter much more feasible. A multibillion-dollar research translation fund is the most effective lever the government could pull to shore up the profession, Ms Schubert said, while also aligning with the Coalition government’s current push to commercialise more research work. Australia invests just 1.79 per cent of GDP into research and development. The rate has fallen steadily over the last decade and is now less than half that of global innovation leaders like Israel and South Korea, and below the global average for advanced economies. “That’s concerning because each of those other advanced economies are making a clear-eyed strategic choice to invest in R&D heavily,” Ms Schubert said. “Because they know that is the path to future job and income generation for their people in their countries. We should follow suit and really look at a pathway to deepen the investment we make in research and development. It’s our future income.” Do you know more? Contact James Riley via Email.

Autumn calls for ATV-esque footwear. The lug sole loafer delivers. We appreciate the style for its down-the-middle design, versatility and wallet-saving price tag of well under $100. While all the loafers on this list have a sturdy lug sole, few boost uppers as durable as L.L. Bean’s reinforced upper. Camper’s bulbous shape and eye-catching color should help you stand out just fine. The shoe maintains the classic penny loafer shape and stacks it on top of a sturdy, weatherized base. The cult of Dr Martens extends as far as lug sole loafers, and for those bold enough to weather the break-in period, the Adrian Tassel Loafer pays dividends. Discretely lugged for the utmost combination of formality and functionality, they’re dressy enough to work with near any tailoring, even in adverse conditions.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells are best known for their role in treating blood cancers. When used as an anticancer treatment, T cells are removed from an individual and engineered to boost their ability to target cancer cells before being returned to the body. The altered immune cells then seek out and destroy cancer cells with precision. Now, scientists at Memorial Sloan Kettering are deploying CAR T cells against other diseases, including those caused by senescence, a chronic “alarm state” in tissues. The scope of ailments that this potential treatment could include are debilitating conditions such as fibrotic liver disease, atherosclerosis, and diabetes. The work is published in Nature in the paper, “Senolytic CAR T cells reverse senescence-associated pathologies.” The success of CAR T cell therapy depends on having a good target. The first FDA-approved CAR T cells target a molecule on the surface of blood cancers called CD19. It is present on cancer cells but few other normal cells, so side effects are limited. Taking their cue from this prior work, a team of investigators sought to identify a target on senescent cells. “Senescence is a double-edge sword,” said Scott Lowe, PhD, chair, cancer biology & genetics program, Sloan Kettering Institute (SKI) and a senior author on the paper. “Cells in this state play an important role in wound healing and cancer deterrence. But if they linger for too long, they can cause chronic inflammation, which itself is a cause of many diseases. Finding a way to safely eliminate these cells would be a major therapeutic breakthrough in the treatment of these diseases.” Pathologically, the authors wrote, “the aberrant accumulation of senescent cells generates an inflammatory milieu that leads to chronic tissue damage and contributes to diseases such as liver and lung fibrosis, atherosclerosis, diabetes, and osteoarthritis.” They also wrote that eliminating senescent cells from damaged tissues in mice “ameliorates the symptoms of these pathologies and even promotes longevity.” By comparing molecules on the surface of senescent cells to other cell types, the MSK scientists were able to identify a molecule—urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR)—that is enriched on these cells and mostly absent on others. They then designed CAR T cells that recognize uPAR and tested them in several different mouse models of senescence-related diseases, including cancer and liver fibrosis. Fibrosis is a damaging process in which healthy tissue is gradually replaced by scar tissue and is a major cause of liver disease. The engineered cells successfully eliminated senescent cells from two different mouse models of liver fibrosis. As well, the CAR T cells improved survival in mouse models of lung cancer when given along with drugs previously shown to induce senescence in this cancer type. The team’s next step will be to determine whether the uPAR-directed CAR T cells can effectively combat other senescence-related diseases, including atherosclerosis, diabetes, and osteoarthritis. Eventually, they hope to develop the cells for clinical use in people. “This study demonstrates that T cell engineering and CAR therapy can be effective beyond cancer immunotherapy,” said Michael Sadelain, MD, PhD, director of the Center for Cell Engineering at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC), whose lab pioneered the first effective CAR T cells against cancer. “We think this approach has the potential to tackle a number of senescence-related diseases for which new treatments are badly needed,” Lowe added.

Market volatility drives more losses for Phoenix Companies The Phoenix Companies has posted a net loss of £127 million for 2015, faring slightly better than its $209 million loss in the previous year. The insurance firm said the loss was partially caused by unfavourable mortality, compared with expectations, driven by unfavourable universal life experience. Other drivers included external financial reporting expenses of $51.9 million, a $48.5 million charge to settle class actions relating to certain cost of insurance (COI) rate adjustments, and derivative losses of $34.2 million, which were driven by volatility in equity markets and interest rates. The firm also suffered net other-than-temporary impairment losses of $22.8 million. The company’s life insurance sector performed well last year however, posting annualised premium of $18.5 million, compared with $4.8 million in 2014. James Wehr, president and chief executive officer, said: “In 2015, Phoenix repositioned our life companies with an intercompany reinsurance treaty that benefited statutory capital, and we implemented product changes that increased profitability. “We also increased our distribution company’s revenue and EBITDA through growth in third-party business. At the same time, we made substantial progress on remediation and reducing financial reporting expenses.” “Wehr also said the firm’s merger transaction with Nassau Reinsurance Group received stockholder approval in December and that this deal is expected to close in the second quarter of this year."

Nikolai Fomin was born 1970 in Gorny village in the Urals, Russia. He currently lives and works in Kirov, Russia. Nikolai mostly operates in watercolor, mixed technique (watercolor and gouache and other oil painting techniques ) and Indian ink on paper. Nikolai also does oil painting and acrylic on canvas. The basis of Nikolai Fomin beautiful watercolor art is his love of wild nature, the beauty of a woman and the uniqueness of Northern tribes. Artist says that quite often his magnificent watercolor paintings are inspired by his favorite music and bewitching natural scenery. Nikolai says, that as more closely he gets familiar with the culture and the spiritual worlds of Northern folks and more time he spends with wild nature – the unique worlds arise in his mind. He also loves to discover more about the native Slavic Native Faith and the mythology of other nations like Uralic Neopaganism. You obviously can see the reflection of his deep interests in his watercolor landscapes. The heart of Nikolai fully belongs to the North, with its sharp contrasts of the heat and cold, the ice, snow, and water, with its fluffy beasts and ruffled birds. To the North with its beautiful legends and some kind of “frosty infertility” and its calmness. Nikolai Fomin is one of the best watercolor artists in Russia and many of his works have been acquired by individuals and companies in Russia, Sweden, the United States, and Great Britain.

“Who wants to carry bunches of bananas rather than go to work in a microprocessor factory producing the world’s most in-demand technology?” That was Costa Rican President Rodrigo Chaves’ question to young Ticos. He was visiting a region of the country that has a large banana production industry with US Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo. The US and Costa Rica have a similar goal, albeit for different reasons. They both want to grow the microchip manufacturing industry in the Central American country. For Costa Rica, greater FDI means a more skilled workforce, greater capital inflows, and fits into the country’s long term economic plans. On the other hand, the US is desperate to reduce their overwhelming dependency on the South Asian market for microchips. Investing in Costa Rica In 2014, Intel announced that after a nearly two-decade presence in Costa Rica, it was moving its production facilities to sites in China, Malaysia and Vietnam. This seemed like a setback for one of Central America’s most stable democracies. But ten years, a pandemic, and a few trade wars later, it is regaining the confidence of the tech sector. In August 2022, Intel inaugurated its only semiconductor chip assembly and test operations facility in the Western world in Costa Rica. Since, the company has said it plans to invest $1.2bln in the country over two years. In 2022, Costa Rica ranked first in Investment Monitor’s Inward FDI Performance Index, which measure’s a country’s inward investment levels against its gross domestic product. The country has also had huge success in creating a medical device manufacturing sector. This has been one of the country’s top export for years. How well do you really know your competitors?

President Chaves recently highlighted more tax incentives, regulatory reforms and a 99% renewable energy grid as part of the country’s appeal to foreign investors. They launched a “roadmap for strengthening the semiconductor ecosystem in Costa Rica” which includes: talent development, modernizing incentives, attracting investment and improving their regulatory framework. The CHIPS Act and the ITSI Fund Costa Rica became the first of six partner countries granted a special fund from the American CHIPS and Science Act in 2022. The international technology security and innovation fund (ITSI) is a $500m fund, distributed as $100m annual instalments over five years beginning in 2023. The fund aims to improve capacity in the semiconductor assembly, testing and packaging (ATP) sector in allied countries. A rise in geopolitical tensions and protective policies have been huge factors in determining FDI flows for the last two decades. The US’s focus on strengthening supply chains with stable allies and bringing production closer to home will likely continue to benefit Costa Rica’s plans of becoming Latin America’s Silicon Valley.
