I’m currently creating our proof of concept with Dropbox and Boxifier. Everything syncs fine when I add a folder with Boxifier. With Smart Sync being a relatively new feature for Dropbox, Smart Sync does not work with Boxifier. The green checkbox appears next to folder and file I used to back up using Boxifier. When I go to the Smart Sync context menu item for the folder and switch it from Local to Online Only, the file will not switch modes. It stays in Local mode (green checkbox).
I was wondering how to get Smart Sync working. If it is not currently supported, do you have an ETA on what it will be implemented or fixed?
Smart Sync is not currently supported because it has certain requirements from the underlying filesystem. Boxifier works by virtualizing the filesystem underneath Dropbox so that it can sync folders from various filesystems, but some of those filesystems are not compatible with Smart Sync. Moreover, Smart Sync operates using a kernel driver, which complicates things even further.
The context menu which stays in Local mode is on purpose. Boxifier integrates with Dropbox in order to achieve that. If Boxifier were not integrated with Dropbox to handle this scenario, marking those folders as “Online Only” would trash their contents. Some people like to think that Boxifier is just doing some fancy symlinks, but just try to set “Online Only” on a symlinked folder (without using/installing Boxifier) and you will just trash its contents.
I would love to hear your thoughts on how making Smart Sync work with folders that are synced by Boxifier would benefit you. I mean it. Please let me know.
“I would love to hear your thoughts on how making Smart Sync work with folders that are synced by Boxifier would benefit you.”
We have ~1TB in NAS storage backed up to Dropbox for Business using a PC on our network that is running Boxifier. So far, so good.
Our remote users would like to be shared into the NAS files up in Dropbox AND use Smart Sync to not have their local drive filled with all 1TB of NAS files. We have tried doing this twice in the past year; most recently about a week ago (mid-Mar. 2018). The failure has been the same each time: Despite a Smart Sync default setting in Dropbox of “Online Only” for all new shares and despite right clicking on the NAS root folder in Dropbox on the PCs and selecting “Online Only,” the NAS files “leak” into our users local drives filling them up. This does not happen with other non-Boxifier folders that are shared and Smart Synced, but none of them are near the size of the Boxifier NAS share. Maybe leakage is occurring there but it is too small to notice.

Teens Arrested in Mercer Island Anti-Semitism Graffiti Spree
There’s a long list of things that Jewish teenagers have to worry about in high school: zits, gym class, overbearing mothers, but now, students at Northwest Yeshiva High School on Mercer Island can add anti-Semitism to the list. On the eve of Yom Kippur, security cameras caught three teenage boys defacing the school building with swastikas and making “references to gas chambers,” according to SeattlePI.com. The Mercer Island community pitched in to make sure the building was clean of graffiti before Yom Kippur services began in the school’s sanctuary.
The Mercer Island Police Department did not take this crime lightly, as it followed a string of other acts of vandalism that took place earlier in the week. The Seattle Times reported that two of the teenagers have been caught and are now keeping each other company in juvenile detention. One 18-year-old remains on the loose, but Detective Pete Erickson told SeattlePI.com that boy’s attorney expects him to come forward. If only that was the end of it for the students at Northwest Yeshiva High School; basketball tryouts are right around the corner.

In today's fast-paced world, maintaining joint health is crucial for staying active and enjoying life to the fullest. Whether you're an athlete, a weekend warrior, or someone who simply wants to maintain mobility as you age, supporting your joints with the right nutrients is key. That's where JointFlex Pro Gummies come in—a delicious and convenient way to promote joint health naturally.
The Power of Glucosamine Sulfate
Glucosamine Sulfate is a well-known and extensively researched ingredient for joint health. It's a natural compound found in healthy cartilage, particularly in the fluid around the joints. As we age, our body's natural production of glucosamine decreases, leading to the gradual wear and tear of cartilage and, consequently, joint discomfort.
JointFlex Pro Gummies are enriched with Glucosamine Sulfate, helping to support the structure and function of your joints. By replenishing the body's glucosamine levels, these gummies assist in maintaining the integrity of cartilage, reducing joint pain, and improving overall joint flexibility. Regular intake of glucosamine has been shown to alleviate symptoms of osteoarthritis, making it an essential component of any joint health regimen.
The Antioxidant Power of Vitamin E
JointFlex Pro Gummies also contain Vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that plays a crucial role in protecting the body's cells from oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is a significant contributor to the aging process and can accelerate the degeneration of joint tissues. By neutralizing free radicals, Vitamin E helps to protect joint cells from damage, promoting long-term joint health.
Additionally, Vitamin E supports the immune system, which is essential for maintaining overall health and well-being. A strong immune system ensures that your body can repair and recover efficiently, which is particularly important for those with active lifestyles.
Why Choose JointFlex Pro Gummies?
JointFlex Pro Gummies are more than just a supplement; they are a commitment to maintaining an active, pain-free lifestyle. Here's why you should consider incorporating them into your daily routine:
Convenient and Delicious: No more swallowing large pills or dealing with unpleasant tastes. JointFlex Pro Gummies are easy to take and come in a delicious flavor, making your daily dose of joint support a treat rather than a chore.
Natural Ingredients: Our formula is carefully crafted with natural ingredients that work synergistically to support joint health. With no artificial colors or preservatives, you can trust that you're giving your body the best.
Supports Mobility and Flexibility: Whether you're running a marathon or simply enjoying a walk in the park, JointFlex Pro Gummies help keep your joints in top shape, allowing you to move with ease and confidence.
Promotes Long-Term Joint Health: With the combination of Glucosamine Sulfate and Vitamin E, these gummies not only provide immediate relief but also support long-term joint health, helping you stay active as you age.
JointFlex Pro Gummies offer a simple yet effective solution to joint health, combining the benefits of Glucosamine Sulfate and Vitamin E in a tasty, convenient form. By including them in your daily routine, you're taking a proactive step towards maintaining your joint health, ensuring that you can continue to live life on your terms—pain-free and full of energy.
Invest in your joint health today with JointFlex Pro Gummies and experience the difference for yourself!

What Is The Wahls Protocol?
Dr. Ken Sharlin is the only M.D. in the world to be a Wahls Protocol Certified Health Professional
The Wahls Protocol, named for Dr. Terry Wahls, is a functional medicine-oriented approach to treating multiple sclerosis and other autoimmune conditions. It emphasizes specific nutritional strategies, movement, and stress-reducing practices with targeted supplementation to reverse the course of these chronic diseases.
The inspiration for The Wahls Protocol came from her own life experience when, after several years of waxing and waning symptoms, Dr. Wahls was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Despite a career in academic medicine at the University of Iowa, and access to the best conventional medical doctors and treatments, by 2006 her condition declined the point that she was restricted to a wheelchair. She tried the Paleo Diet, and by chance, after she discovered the principles of Functional Medicine, through research and self-experimentation, she perfected what is known today as The Wahls Protocol. She is now ambulatory and able to ride her bicycle 20 miles. Dr. Wahls spreads her message of therapeutic lifestyle medicine through her book, speaking engagements, clinical research, and her practice at the Veterans Affairs Hospital in Iowa City. Dr. Wahls also holds a faculty position with The Institute for Functional Medicine.
Sharlin Health and Neurology serves Ozark and Springfield with functional medicine treatments that help Alzheimer’s, Dementia, Multiple Sclerosis, and many more. Contact our clinic for more information on our Springfield Wahls Protocol programs and get a start on transforming your health today!

A digital multimeter is a single the most functional and handy devices in your car store. It is important to possess a superior product and fully grasp how to use it appropriately. A digital multimeter is truly 3 gadgets in a person. It is a voltmeter that evaluate electrical prospective throughout a device in volts. It is an ammeter that steps the quantity of electrical existing by means of a gadget. This is calculated in amps. Eventually, a electronic multimeter is an ohmmeter that measures electrical resistance of a product. Electrical resistance is measured in ohms.
These days, contemporary electronic multimeters are created to be rugged and uncomplicated to operate. A fantastic multimeter will have a rugged plastic scenario and significant, simple to use selector knobs. The top rated component includes the electronic study out display screen. This is one thing you should carefully test out just before you obtain one. Make guaranteed the display screen is huge adequate to examine it and make confident you see the readout in daylight. Chances are you will be using this instrument outside the house in immediate sunlight.
Under the electronic readout is a substantial knob called the functionality swap. The function change lets you to transform the modes the digital multimeter operates in. For example, you can simply adjust from voltmeter to ammeter to ohmmeter with the turn of the dial. Again make absolutely sure the functionality swap is big and effortless to operate. Most operate switches have roughly 8 positions. Most have three V markings that evaluate voltage. They measure AC, DC and small voltage currents in the millivolt variety. Future there will be two positions marked with A~ and A=. The A~ measures AC existing in amps and the A= measures DC current in amps. The upside down horseshoe Ω measures resistance in ohms.
In buy to evaluate voltage, initial turn on the electronic multimeter and enable it go by its startup technique. Usually the digital readout lights up and the unit goes by way of its self diagnostic checkout. At the time that is done you are ready to evaluate volts. Now turn the function swap to V= to measure DC volts. Now you will need to link the red and black qualified prospects to the digital multimeter. Hook up the crimson guide to the red enter terminal labeled VΩ and connect the black lead to the terminal labeled COM for popular terminal. Now you can measure volts by putting the purple guide on the terminal with the larger potential and the black guide on the reduced a person.
To measure amps, the prospects should be connected in a distinct trend. 1st set the perform swap to A= placement. Link the black direct to the COM terminal. Now you have to hook up the pink guide to the terminal labeled 300mA. Now you are completely ready to link the meter in collection the machine staying calculated by opening up the circuit and inserting the meter amongst the open details. The success will be in milliamps simply because you are applying the 300mA terminal.
The third element of a electronic multimeter is its potential to evaluate to Ohms. Ohms is a measurement of resistance in an electrical circuit. Initial disconnect all wiring and electrical power sources from the system getting calculated. Now turn the function change to the Ω position and connect your sales opportunities. The pink lead is connected to the terminal labeled VΩ and the black terminal connects to the COM terminal. The show will show OL. This is regular and usually means there is an overload. Now join the prospects across the product to measure the Ohms.
These are the basic functions of a digital multimeter. Try to remember to shut off your multimeter prior to storing it back again in the your toolbox.

Celebrate Valentine’s Day with Trove’s Beloved Heckbugs in Love 2024 Event.
gamigo has announced the return of the Heckbugs in Love event in its hugely popular voxel-based MMO, Trove. Heckbugs in Love 2024 Edition will be available on all platforms from February 6 until February 20.
This year the Heckbugs have once again found their way into Verdant Veins and Sunken Sunvault, and they’ve finally infested the last cave in Geode, the Moonlight Grotto. Trovians must embark upon the adventure by summoning Heckbugs with some Hecky Chow, then the real business can begin.
Matching two Heckbugs is a very dangerous affair. So dangerous that if left to their own devices, they'd be alone forever. They need help to meet other little Heckbugs while remaining protected from Heckbug Invaders. Normal Heckbugs are one thing, but those twisted by the Shadow are especially dangerous!
Each Heckbug helped in the Geode caves can drop a new lockbox that rewards Crystals, Heckbug Eggs, and even a new Heckbug Ally. With eggs to be found all over the caves at this time of year, players should be sure to collect and hatch them to unlock and receive three new companions.
However, gamers should take pause before celebrating a job well done, as the worst is yet to come. New to the event this year is the Heckbug Hunter, who will appear at the end of the questline. His motives are unknown but his eyes are haunted and his mission is clear - rip, tear, and destroy.
By completing The Hunter’s daily quests, Trovians will be able to return to him and purchase untradeable crafting materials.
Additional Trove Updates
Duraveln the Bamboo Dragon will be coming to Trove PC on February 2 to celebrate the Chinese New Year. The event will bring fun features including:
The Successful Stalk Ally - This ally will appear for only two days during the event
Exciting giveaways on Trove social media channels

The Chinese New Year event will start on consoles at the end of February, and with it, the Successful Stalk Ally will sneak into the game.
Heckbugs in Love 2024 will be available on all platforms from February 6 until February 20.

Authentic and powerful music
Anja Gantner: Life is full ... (How do you finish the following sentence)
Ted Hall: Life is full challenges and opportunities. Try to match those together and things will work out fine.
EA Birkett: Life is full infinite possibilities and probabilities, from steep
mountains and crevices, to open plains and dense forests. Likely we will
encounter them all multiple times. When we understand this, there comes
a balance to our thinking and understanding as you realize that the
cycle will come around again, leaving you better able to climb the
hills, jump the crevices, enjoy the wide open plains and not get too
lost in the forests.
Anja Gantner: What are you most grateful for in your past / present life?
For the people that I'm close to.
The possibility of becoming a better human being.
Anja Gantner: What is your worldview or philosophy of life / motto?
Do what you love to do and use your gifts. To never stop growing in knowledge and compassion.
to try to do everything with respect and to the best of my ability.. be
it art or sweeping the the floor.. in essence, to never stop trying to
be better, to learn, to be wiser and deeper in my understanding of
Anja Gantner: What role does the environment play in realizing your passion / goals / dreams or not losing focus?
The environment. like this current pandemic (Corona), is an issue that must be addressed because the consequences are real.
My answer here ties is exactly the same as my answer for "life is full of.." (complete the sentence).
Focus on what you can do and do it the best you can.
Anja Gantner: What do you think is your life's work in this world?
To bring music to people.
Again for it is the same question and answer as my life philosophy -
question, but I would also add that if I do my work well, I might be
able to touch some people and help them to better understand their
life's story, or be able to put frayed or confused emotions into
Anja Gantner: What are you doing to have a good time?
Bringing music to the world.
It doesn't matter what I'm doing (or at least I try to turn it in this
direction), I always have a good time. Happy or sad, playful or serious.
Maybe this doesn't make sense to you and it doesn't always make sense
to me but perhaps one day it will.

The annual event celebrates the birthday of St. Augustine’s founder, Pedro Menéndez de Avilés. This year was his 491st birthday.
“A few new things happened this year and it all went well,” Smith said.
The Gala benefits Heritage Tourism, which restores historic monuments around town by putting up plaques beside them and helping with the preservation of artifacts. Various volunteers who help the Gala run smoothly, including Flagler students, dress in 1500s’ attire courtesy of the Government House and re-enact, greet guests, and help out where needed during the formal event.
There, the procession of costumed volunteers followed SAG actor Chaz Mena, who played the role of Pedro Menéndez, to the Lightner Museum to the occasional shouts of “Viva Menéndez! Viva St. Augustine!”
In the Lightner Ballroom, patrons enjoyed cocktails and hors d’ oeuvres followed by dining on the Mezzanine. The Gala held an open bar and dancing until midnight with live music provided from The Company.
“In the past, sometimes people didn’t stay right up until the end,” Smith said. “The sign of a successful event is when many stay until the end and sing and dance with the band; this time the guests were out having a great time even as late clean-up started after midnight.”
Devin Vaché, former president of Flagler’s Spanish Club, and David Estler, both recent Flagler graduates, volunteered this year.
A few unexpected changes arose, but all still turned out well.
“Chaz Mena’s wife was supposed to come and play Menéndez’s girlfriend beside him, but she couldn’t make it unexpectedly,” Smith said. “So, Flagler theatre student Laci Burlison, who is also chair of the wardrobe department, stepped up and got the acting role of Menéndez’s girlfriend. Jessica Solomon also only learned the day before that she would have to sing the National Anthem because of an emergency situation in which the hired singer couldn’t make it.”
Solomon wasn’t sure if she was going to be able pull it off but she’s glad she did.
“At first it was intimidating,” said Solomon. “I was told what to wear down to a tee and had to run out the day before to buy a dress, and make sure I had the shoes. But they needed someone and I said hey, I can sing the National Anthem.”
Smith said Flagler student talents were put to use at the Gala Menéndez.
“Two future stars got their debut [at the Gala],” she said.

To refill your service or add a plan from your reserve, press one. To activate your device, press two."
"For any other service, press eight. If you are calling regarding home Internet service, press one."
I heard about Straight Talk Wireless through television ads. I was interested in their Internet service, so I called 855-222-2355 to speak with a customer representative. Like most customer service numbers, my initial interaction was not with a human greeting me cheerfully. Instead, an automated voice response system began by thanking me for calling Straight Talk Wireless and telling me I could press “2” for Spanish. After that, the system informed me that the call “may be recorded,” but I could visit a link on the company’s home page for information about their privacy policies.
A consumer can call the customer service number at Straight Talk Wireless to learn more about wireless services, devices, and home internet. Upon answering my call, the voice response system shared a menu of options, including adding a plan, activating a plan, adding a line to an existing account, changing a phone number, technical support, phone purchases, SIM cards, accessories, and home internet. To access these options, I needed to press a number between one and eight that corresponded with my choice. Pressing nine would return me to the menu.
I chose home internet service, since I was curious about what Straight Talk Wireless offered. I had to hold for the next representative and listen to the usual automated background music while waiting. Another voice response system message encouraged me to continue holding for the next available representative.
Surprisingly, the hold time was not long, and a customer service representative greeted me and said they would be “more than glad” to help. I asked them about their Internet service and learned that it involves my purchasing a home internet plan. The representative explained that I would need a home router and shared the monthly fee. However, the individual asked for my phone number and home address, which I hesitated to share. Since I initiated the call, I decided it should be fine to share the information to learn what I needed to know about the service.
The representative used the information to determine if Straight Talk Internet was available in my area. Unfortunately, I cannot access the service where I live. However, they told me the service is expanding, so I should check back to find out when it would become available.
Overall, my experience with the Straight Talk Wireless customer service number was not bad. The automated menu was somewhat long, but once I chose my preference, the wait time for speaking to an associate was brief. The individual seemed friendly and eager to help, which was impressive.

Chelsea And Atletico Madrid Likely To Work Out Deal For Joao Felix.
Atletico Madrid and Chelsea are working on a deal that can see Joao Felix remain in London at the end of the season.
Felix joined Chelsea on loan in January for €11.5m and are also paying his salary. Chelsea appear to be happy with Felix’s contribution so far, despite the fact that his numbers (2 goals in 9 appearances) are not making the headlines.
The relationship between Felix and Diego Simeone at Atletico Madrid appears ropey at best, and since his departure Atleti have been the second best side in Spain. Captain Koke Resurreccion has even recently admitted that Felix’s presence was not helping this season.
The Portuguese is seemingly very happy in London, and as a result of all these factors, Relevo say he is looking likely to stay at Chelsea next season.
The clubs are talking over a deal that would likely be in the region of €100m for Felix, although it might involve some form of delayed payment or variables to lessen the fee.
Felix and Simeone never seemed to find a way of making it work together. If Los Colchoneros can regain most of his €129m transfer fee in a more depressed market, then it would likely be a beneficial deal for them.

In October 2019, I was fortunate to be seconded from London to PLMR’s Global Communications Alliance partner in Ottawa, Bluesky Strategy. The Canadian General Election was just days away, and the two leading political parties were much closer in the polls than an outsider might have assumed. From the UK, Justin Trudeau seemed like the obvious winner, with his youthful and progressive appeal. However inside Canada, Trudeau’s track record over the last four years, coupled with some personal scandals, had many of his former supporters considering voting a different way.
The team at Bluesky Strategy are well-known across Canada’s political circle, and it was a pleasure to watch and learn from them as they tracked the polls and advised their clients in a range of sectors including, aerospace and defence, education and agriculture, on the different possible election day outcomes. The team were creative in their external communications, offering a daily insights HTML and a weekly podcast to contacts, alongside their day-to-day consultancy. The opportunity to share ideas and best practice with an international partner was incredibly valuable and provided much food for thought.
A personal highlight for me was shadowing, Bluesky Strategy’s Principal, Susan Smith, to high-profile media interviews. In the lead up to the General Election, Susan sat on several panels with other political commentators sharing her views on the election campaign and upcoming results. It was inspiring to watch her speak so confidently and passionately about Canadian politics, and exciting to know her words were being televised and watched across the country.
Beyond learning about the political landscape in Canada, I also learnt about some very interesting briefs and policy issues. For example, the one-year anniversary of the legalisation of Cannabis occurred whilst I was in Ottawa, and there were active conversations about the next steps for the policy. Whilst the landscape for legalisation is not yet primed in the UK, I have no doubt that it will be a prominent issue in the future and having this type of background knowledge from Canada will be very useful.
Outside of work, the team at Bluesky Strategy were extremely kind and took the time to show me around Ottawa and the surrounding area. Former Member of Parliament, Joe Jordan, gave me a personal tour inside of the Canadian Parliament and colleagues also took me on a trip to Gatineau Park – memories I will never forget!
I will continue to collaborate with colleagues at Bluesky Strategy from here in London. Since leaving Ottawa, I have already worked with some of their consultants to share advice to my UK-based clients with an interest in Canada. This type of on-the-ground intel is really invaluable to my work, and indeed was why the Global Communications Alliance was set up, allowing for collaboration between like-minded, high-achieving communications agencies around the world.
Thank you very much PLMR and Bluesky Strategy – thank you Kevin, Susan, Tim and Stuart – for giving me this once in a lifetime career opportunity.

Control of tissue homeostasis by the extracellular matrix: Synthetic heparan sulfate as a promising therapeutic for periodontal health and bone regeneration

Proteoglycans are core proteins associated with carbohydrate/sugar moieties that are highly variable in disaccharide composition, which dictates their function. These carbohydrates are named glycosaminoglycans, and they can be attached to proteoglycans or found free in tissues or on cell surfaces. Glycosaminoglycans such as hyaluronan, chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate, keratan sulfate, and heparin/heparan sulfate have multiple functions including involvement in inflammation, immunity and connective tissue structure, and integrity. Heparan sulfate is a highly sulfated polysaccharide that is abundant in the periodontium including alveolar bone. Recent evidence supports the contention that heparan sulfate is an important player in modulating interactions between damage associated molecular patterns and inflammatory receptors expressed by various cell types. The structure of heparan sulfate is reported to dictate its function, thus, the utilization of a homogenous and structurally defined heparan sulfate polysaccharide for modulation of cell function offers therapeutic potential. Recently, a chemoenzymatic approach was developed to allow production of many structurally defined heparan sulfate carbohydrates. These oligosaccharides have been studied in various pathological inflammatory conditions to better understand their function and their potential application in promoting tissue homeostasis. We have observed that specific size and sulfation patterns can modulate inflammation and promote tissue maintenance including an anabolic effect in alveolar bone. Thus, new evidence provides a strong impetus to explore heparan sulfate as a potential novel therapeutic agent to treat periodontitis, support alveolar bone maintenance, and promote bone formation.

The easy mode is way too easy. We've seen this type of puzzle way too often.
The medium mode is slightly harder. Each tile has either 3 or 4 colors.
The hard mode is fantastic. And very hard. As you slide a row across, each tile rotates 90 degrees. So there are 2 tasks: solving for the position of each tile and the orientation. I've tried it only once and ran out of moves.

On Wednesday, David Hurrion, teacher of horticultural subjects at all levels, broadcaster, editor, designer and a Designated Judge for the RHS, demonstrated the breadth of his knowledge and experience by taking us time-travelling around the world.
He began his fascinating talk with a slide depicting the separation of the seven continents causing plants to evolve into distinct groups, and continued to demonstrate how mountain ranges, rivers and other landscape characteristics, including climate (position vis-a-vis the sun) also impacted on the plant world. Human beings had a huge effect, intentionally (by collecting plants to bring home) as well as unintentionally (by carrying seeds home in their clothing).
David illustrated his talk with colourful slides of a wide range of flowers and plants from all over the world, some of which are reproduced here; he frequently dropped in nuggets of information such as why plants from the Himalayan region (as well as spring bulbs) have their dormitory period in summer, or how the Great White Cherry came to be reintroduced after it had become extinct in Japan.
David’s enthusiasm and passion for plants was most evident towards the end, when he cautioned the audience to be aware of human action and its effect on he plant world, based on the different aspects of his own garden, and his conclusion: East is Least, West is Best.
David has a very informative website with beautiful photographs at http://davidhurrion.com, as well as a YouTube channel with useful instructions.

When it comes to backgrounds involving altitude, it’s easy to think of JJ and Kelly Menozzi — the husband/wife winemaking team of Aluvé stationed along Walla Walla’s Mill Creek Road. From here, the retired Air Force pilots didn’t need to reach far into the Blue Mountain foothills for fruit from Les Collines, French for “the foothills.” Bright red fruit notes of raspberry and Bing cherry are joined by cocoa powder and pepper. On the palate, blackberry and herbs are framed by a marvelous mouthfeel that creates balance among the tannin, acidity and oak while leaving room for a boysenberry finish. “This clicks all of the boxes,” noted one panelist.

A strong-willed child will often push boundaries and limits. They might have intense, angry outbursts or refuse to comply with instructions. Often, parents of these children will feel exasperated and be at a loss for what to do.
Fortunately, there are some strong-willed child parenting techniques. They will help children go from obstinate to well-behaved. This behavior will spill over into other parts of their lives, enabling them to get along better with teachers and peers.
Below, we’ll get into our tips for parenting strong willed children. Keep reading to learn more!
Identify the Root
Strong willed children seldom act out for no reason. Instead, they often do so because they’re experiencing large emotions or disagree with the way a situation is panning out.
Unless you identify the root of your child’s outbursts, you might not have as much success in handling them. So, see if you notice a pattern. Does your child tend to get upset when you don’t allow them to do a certain thing? Do they seem to be trying to communicate a pent-up emotion to you?
Address the Emotion
Once you’ve identified the root of the outburst, address your child’s emotion. Make sure you do this in as gentle and non-confrontational a way as possible. Say something like, “I know you’re frustrated right now.”
That way, your child will know that you’re not faulting them for having emotions. Instead, you’re explaining why they can’t do whatever they want to do at the time.
If your child continues to act out, tell them what the consequences will be. Remember, throughout the entire interaction, you should avoid raising your voice or appearing angry. Allowing your emotions to spike might cause the situation to escalate.
Should the child keep doing the behavior, enforce the consequences. If you don’t, your child will learn that they will be able to get away with their stubborn behavior even when you say you’ll punish them.
Set Clear Boundaries
Children thrive when there are plenty of clear, healthy boundaries in the home. In fact, some children act out just to test the boundaries.
So, tell your child the boundaries and the consequences for breaking them.
Sometimes, strong willed children will wonder why they aren’t allowed to do certain things. If you have this type of child, resist the urge to say, “Because I said so.” Instead, give them a brief explanation.
Praise Good Behavior
A strong-willed child will benefit from praise or rewards for good behavior. Psychologists refer to this as positive reinforcement.
Kids learn which behaviors are acceptable and which aren’t from how adults react. Rewarding and praising good behavior will show the child how you want them to act and give them the incentive to continue doing so.
Raising Strong Willed Children
Raising strong willed children can pose its challenges. If you use the techniques above, however, you should be able to reduce your child’s outbursts and encourage healthier behaviors.
If you need someone to help you look after your child during the day, you’ve come to the right place. Our facilities come equipped with staff experienced in taking care of and nurturing young minds.

Remote work destinations in Albania
If you are searching for a place to take some days off your permanent work location and to work remotely, Albania can be a very good choice. It has delicious food, cheap services, cheap hotels / Airbnb if you book on advance, and in general very kind and helpful people. In this article, I will list some locations that can offer you some peaceful and interesting remote working days.
Theth is a small village surrounded by spectacular mountain views, located within Shkoder County. This can be a suitable remote working destination for one week or more if you prefer the village life. The views there are fantastic and it is difficult to get bored there. Some activities to do in the free time include hiking, wandering around in the village, experiencing the delicious culinary, getting to know the local traditions, learning about Kanun. Almost every hotel there has internet connection, so it won’t be an issue to work remotely. Some hotels are more experienced than others with tourists who seek remote work, so have a look at Google reviews before choosing your stay.
Durres is a port city, the second most populated city in Albania after Tirane. During non summer seasons, it is a quite city with still much to offer. Renting an apartment for a couple of weeks or more should be relatively cheap and you can easily find sea-view apartments in Airbnb with good prices. On your free time there, you can enjoy walking on the beach, exploring the archeological remains like the amphitheater which is very famous worldwide, tasting delicious sea food that can be found easily in every corner of Durres. The sunsets there are amazing, so you can experience it every day from the balcony of your rented apartment.
Berat is a city in central Albania, with Osum river passing across it. You can feel the good and relaxing energy of the city once you arrive there and start walking through the city’s narrow roads. You can be amazed from the mountain Tomorri’s views from every corner of the city. If you have some free time, going for a hiking there is really worth it. If you are into history, the city has a lot to offer knowing that the city’s history began at ~ 6th century B.C. as an Illyrian settlement. You can find delicious food, welcoming people, beautiful nature, unique architecture, and peace everyday of your stay.
Korca is another beautiful Albanian city to consider for remote working. It is a cozy city, with a good vibe and a lot of culture and history to explore. You can rent there old traditional houses and feel like you are travelling back in time. The best season to go is winter because you can experience the full coziness of this city when all house chimneys are on. The city offers traditional delicious food like “petulla te fshira”, “kernacka”, “lakror”, etc. Internet connection is present everywhere, so it won’t be an issue to work from there. In addition, during the weekend, you can visit some sorrounding villages like Voskopoje, Vithkuq, Dardhe. During winter, you can enjoy the snow and if you are into skiing, you can do so in Dardhe village.

Sports betting has many forms, including traditional betting on sports events, In-play betting, Spread bets, Over/Under bets, and prop bets. In addition, some sports allow players to bet on things that don’t directly relate to the game, such as the length of the national anthem during the Super Bowl or the color of the Gatorade worn by the winning coach. A recent survey by the Morning Consult found that 25% of Americans over 21 have made at least one sports-related bet. Another 18% of American adults have bet at least once a month.
In-play sports betting involves betting on a live game. There are many varieties of in-play betting, with some regulated and others unregulated. The types of in-play betting that are regulated may be those that require a longer decision period and are only available in specific venues. However, the regulations generally prohibit in-play betting online.
One study focused on the characteristics of people who place in-play bets. It found that those who bet on in-play events were significantly more likely to engage in problem gambling compared to non-players. The study also revealed that in-play betting is common among players. More than three-fifths of participants placed bets after an event started. These bettors primarily used internet-based methods, which are illegal under Australian regulations.
One of the best ways to make money on sports is to place spread bets. This type of bet is very flexible and allows you to put money on the underdog team as long as their implied probability of winning is lower than 50%. Usually, these point spreads will be displayed next to the teams’ names.
Spread bets are the most popular types of bets in the NFL and NBA. However, other sports have begun to use them as well. Another popular type of bet is called a moneyline bet. This is a bet that predicts the winner of a game. The moneyline option is best for games with low point spreads.
Over/Under bets in sports gambling increase your chances of winning real money. However, they should be used with care. You must learn about the odds before you start betting. You should also keep your budget in mind. Moreover, you should enjoy sports betting as a hobby and not as a source of extra income.
An Over/Under bet is a wager made on the combined total points scored by both teams in a game. It is based on a number set by the Las Vegas bookmakers. This bet is increasingly popular with bettors, as it’s easy to understand.
Many sportsbooks offer a variety of prop bets for different games. You can also place a wager on who will score more points, or how many touchdowns the team will score in the game. Some sportsbooks offer a large variety of prop bets, and others are more limited. In order to find the best odds, you should enroll in multiple sportsbooks and compare the odds.
Prop bets are a popular option for those who enjoy wagering on events that do not affect the overall game outcome. While these bets may not appeal to professionals, they are popular among casual sports fans, who appreciate variety and the thrill of making a correct call. Prop bets can range from predicting the color of Gatorade to multiple outcomes in one game.
Legality of sports betting
Since the Supreme Court’s Murphy decision in 2006, sports betting has grown in popularity, and even states that have previously been reluctant to offer gambling are exploring the possibility of legalizing it. But before that, sports gambling was almost a pariah. In the 1950s, the federal government viewed sports betting as an organized crime and a threat to the nation’s morality and prosperity. A special Senate committee was formed, led by a Tennessee senator, to investigate the problem.
While the legality of sports betting is still a subject of debate, most Americans believe that states should be allowed to decide whether to legalize the industry. This is especially true of avid sports fans, who are much more likely to support legal sports betting. But while many Americans do support the practice, many others don’t even know that it’s legal in the US. This is evident in a national survey by Greenberg Quinlan Rosner, a polling firm hired by the American Gaming Association (AGA). This poll asked people their opinions on sports betting and their opinions on PASPA, which prohibits single-game sports betting outside of Nevada.

Choosing Parenthood Through Fertility Options for Single Parents
Understanding IVF for Single Parents
IVF is a widely used fertility treatment that involves combining eggs and sperm outside the body to create embryos, which are then transferred to the uterus. For single parents, IVF offers the opportunity to conceive using donor sperm. This process begins with ovarian stimulation, where fertility medications are used to encourage the ovaries to produce multiple eggs. These eggs are then retrieved and fertilized with donor sperm in a laboratory. (Source: AshaIVF)
One of the key considerations for single parents undergoing IVF is the selection of a sperm donor. Donors can be anonymous or known, and extensive screening processes are in place to ensure the health and genetic suitability of the donor. This careful selection helps to maximize the chances of a successful pregnancy and the birth of a healthy child.
Choosing the Right Fertility Clinic
Selecting a reputable fertility clinic is crucial for single parents considering IVF. Clinics vary in success rates, available services, and support for single parents. Choosing a clinic with experience in treating single individuals and a track record of successful outcomes is important. Additionally, the clinic should offer comprehensive support services to help navigate the emotional and legal complexities of using donor sperm and becoming a single parent.
Emotional and Practical Considerations
Single parenthood by choice comes with unique emotional and practical considerations. The decision to pursue IVF and raise a child alone requires careful thought and preparation. Support networks, including family, friends, and support groups for single parents, are vital in providing emotional support and practical assistance. (Source: Care Fertility) It is also important to consider the long-term implications of single parenthood, including financial stability and the ability to balance work and parenting responsibilities.
Financial Aspects of IVF for Single Parents
The financial aspects of IVF are important considerations for single parents. IVF can be expensive, and the costs can vary depending on the clinic, location, and specific treatments required. It is essential to understand the financial commitment involved, including the costs of medications, procedures, and donor sperm. Some clinics offer payment plans or financial assistance programs to help make IVF more accessible.
In addition to the immediate costs of IVF, single parents should also consider the long-term financial responsibilities of raising a child. Creating a budget and planning for future expenses, such as childcare, education, and healthcare, can help ensure financial stability and reduce stress. (Source: Guardian Life)
The Path to Parenthood
For single individuals, the path to parenthood through IVF can be both challenging and rewarding. Advances in fertility treatments have made it possible for single men and women to achieve their dream of becoming parents. By carefully considering their options, seeking support, and planning for the future, single parents can successfully navigate the journey to parenthood.

A garment, sheet or tablecloth that’s more yellow than white instantly loses all its charm, and you won’t enjoy wearing it anymore. Your prettiest blouse is turning more and more yellow and you’re sad about it – don’t panic! Thanks to a few tricks, you’ll be able to restore its radiance and wear it again with pleasure.
1 – LEMON
Known for its whitening properties, lemon is a citrus fruit of choice for your laundry. For this System D preparation, you’ll need 2 grams of salt and the juice of 2 lemons. You can also replace the salt with bicarbonate of soda, also renowned for its ability to whiten fabrics. Mix all these ingredients in lukewarm water and place in a basin for an express hand-wash. Lemon is a natural household product. You’d be wrong to deprive yourself of it!
2 – SUDDEN BICARBONATE
Biodegradable, practical and non-toxic, it’s the ultimate household product. In laundry, baking soda is a cleaning agent that removes dirt and yellowish stains caused by perspiration or dampness.
This gentle abrasive restores the shine to white linens. For machine washing, pour two cups of baking soda into the drum. For hand washing, add half a cup of baking soda to the water and soak the yellowed laundry. It’s a good idea to sprinkle the product directly onto the stains, then rub.
3 – SODA CRYSTALS
- Soak the garment or linen for 1/4 in a solution of one teacup of soda crystals to one liter of hot water.
- Scrub stains.
- Leave for a few minutes, then rinse.
4 – POWDERED MILK
To give your clothes a second life, there’s nothing like a little dehydrated milk. Mix it with water and soak your clothes in it. For even more impressive results, dry your clothes in the sun. This tip is also valid for classic milk, provided you soak it for an hour in the drink.
5 – HYDROGEN PEROXIDE
It’s a well-known fact that you can do a lot with hydrogen peroxide. Using a cloth soaked in hydrogen peroxide, rub the stain. Rinse, wash as normal in your washing machine and you’re done. Effective, isn’t it? Your little white dress is as good as new again!
6 – SAVON DE MARSEILLE
Marseille soap is known for its many virtues. Not only can it whiten your favorite white pants but it can also fight yellow and gray stains. All you need to do is soap your clothes, leave them in warm soapy water for an hour, then rinse and leave to dry. Simple, isn’t it?
7 – WHITE VINEGAR
Known the world over for its many uses in home care, white vinegar is also a great ally for softening and staining yellowed clothes.
Its acidic compounds easily penetrate fabrics, removing color-affecting compounds.
What’s more, it’s just as effective as chemical fabric softeners, which can be highly toxic, leaving your clothes feeling pleasantly soft.
- ½ cup white vinegar (125 ml)
- ¼ cup detergent (62 ml)
- Mix white vinegar with your usual detergent and place in the detergent dispenser of your washing machine.
- If your clothes are really damaged, you can immerse them in a basin containing vinegar and water.

Hey there, I’m Matt, and I’ve had a pretty wild ride with my hamsters over the years. Back in college, I had a pair of Syrian hamsters named Bonnie and Clyde.
They were the cutest little furballs you’ve ever seen, and I was convinced they were the perfect pets for a broke college student like myself.
But little did I know, my life was about to be turned upside down by their love life.
One day, I walked into my dorm room to find Bonnie and Clyde doing the dirty right there in their cage. I was equal parts shocked and mortified. I mean, I knew they were brother and sister, but I had no idea they were into that kind of thing.
I immediately did some research and found out that yes, hamsters can and do mate with their siblings. In fact, it’s not uncommon for them to do so in the wild.
So, can hamsters mate with siblings? Yes, they can and they do.
The Science of Hamster Mating
Hamsters are known for their high reproductive rate. Female hamsters can give birth to litters of up to 14 pups, and they can do it multiple times a year.
In the wild, hamsters live in large colonies and often mate with whoever’s available. So, if a brother and sister end up living in the same colony, it’s not uncommon for them to hook up.
In captivity, things are a bit different. Most pet hamsters are kept in individual cages and don’t have the opportunity to mate with a wide variety of partners.
This is where things can get a bit tricky. If you’re not careful, your pet hamsters may end up mating with their siblings.
The Risks of Inbreeding
Mating with a close relative can lead to a host of health problems, including genetic disorders and birth defects.
Inbreeding can also increase the chances of certain diseases and conditions.
Inbreeding can also weaken the genetic diversity of a population, which can make it more susceptible to diseases and other threats.
The best way to prevent inbreeding is to separate siblings and other close relatives as soon as they reach sexual maturity.
If you’re planning on breeding your hamsters, it’s important to do your research and find partners from a different bloodline.
And if you’re just keeping hamsters as pets, it’s a good idea to keep them in separate cages to prevent any accidental matings.
Can hamsters mate with their parents?
It’s highly unlikely, as most hamsters will avoid mating with their parents or other close relatives.
How can you tell if a hamster is related to another hamster?
It’s not always easy to tell if two hamsters are related, but a good rule of thumb is to avoid mating hamsters from the same litter or from the same bloodline.
Is it safe to breed hamsters from the same litter?
It is not recommended to breed hamsters from the same litter due to the increased risk of inbreeding and genetic disorders.
What should I do if I find out my hamsters are related?
If you find out that your hamsters are related, it’s important to separate them as soon as possible to prevent any accidental matings.
If you’re planning on breeding them, it’s best to find partners from a different bloodline.
Hamsters can and do mate with their siblings, but it’s not something you want to encourage if you’re keeping them as pets.
Inbreeding can lead to a host of health problems and can weaken the genetic diversity of a population.
So, if you want to keep your hamsters healthy and happy, it’s best to separate siblings and other close relatives as soon as they reach sexual maturity.
And remember, just because Bonnie and Clyde got it on in college, doesn’t mean it’s a good idea for you and your hamsters.

A fundraising event hosted by a charitable organization and linked to Donald Trump may have broken the law if it explicitly benefited his campaign, as an IRS rule bars charities from endorsing candidates for elections.
Border911, a Trump-backed charitable organization led by Tom Homan, his former Immigration and Customs Enforcement chief, hosted a gala on April 4 that Trump attended. Other attendees included former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy and Matt Whitaker, who served as chief of staff at the Department of Justice under Trump.
The nonprofit group campaigns against illegal immigration and seeks to persuade swing voters to vote for border security, without explicitly telling them to support Trump. According to the invitation, tickets for the event ranged from $1,200 to $100,000.
Concerns have been raised that the organization may be breaking the law with its links to Trump. The Border911 Foundation received its charitable tax exemption from the IRS in August 2023, which prohibits it from participating in partisan political campaigns.

Supplements are gaining popularity amongst the health conscious. With notable studies and research, herbal medicine is proving effective at remedying a number of ailments. One particular supplement could help fight off symptoms of cold and flu and ensure the body’s immune system is in tip top form.
- Vitamin D warning: A sign when you drink you’ve had too much
According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), dry winter air allows the flu virus to survive and transmit itself.
Additionally, NIH research suggests that the coating of a flu virus becomes tougher at temperatures close to freezing, making them more active, more resilient and easier to transmit in the winter.
Taking a supplement that can help fight these factors could make a huge difference to one’s health.
According to research, echinacea could help prevent colds and flu.
Echinacea is a popular herbal supplement that’s available in many commercial products.
One of the common ways to use echinacea is to drink it in tea. The amount of echinacea tea you need to drink to reap its benefits varies depending on the tea itself and how strongly its brewed.
Echinacea can also be found in liquid tincture, tablets, ointments, capsules and extracts.
What is Echinacea?
Echinacea is a plant whose roots and leaves have been traditionally used for medicinal purposes.
Echinacea plants are also called “purple coneflower,” and three species of plants in the echinacea classification are used as herbal supplements.
Echinacea plants can be found in eastern and central North America.
They have been identified as having anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antiviral properties.
- Best supplements for cholesterol: Try this natural remedy
How echinacea can help prevent flu?
Drinking echinacea tea has been found to be effective in shortening the duration of one’s flu symptoms.
Studies have shown that echinacea can reduce the odds of developing a cold by 58 percent and reducing its duration by one to four days.
Taking echinacea regularly may also influence the flu vaccine tube more effective at starving off the disease.
Echinacea is available in tablets, tinctures, ointments, capsules, extracts, and, of course, tea.
Four grams (two teaspoons) of dried echinacea root boiled in eight ounces of water is considered a “serving” of echinacea tea by the Mayo Clinic.
Two to three servings per day are recommended to keep the immune system healthy; up to five servings are acceptable when you’re already sick.
Echinacea is also available in dry form which allows a person to control how much echinacea they actually ingest.

If you want to know more about how to look good, then this article is just right for you. The below article provides some excellent tips and secrets on maximizing your inward and outward beauty.
Make sure you exfoliate before you use a fake tan. This will make your skin more smooth and will get rid of any dead skin. This helps your sunless tanner look smooth and even after you apply it. This also enhances the lifespan of your tan and makes it look more like the real thing.
A fluffy brush and a dusting of matte powder are all it takes to freshen up your makeup if you need to go from daytime to night. You can enhance your cheeks by using some shimmery powder on them.
Your hair follicles are very sensitive at this point because they are still open. You can experience extensive skin irritation if you follow through with tanning. It is also important to stay away from products that contain a scent when you are finished with sugaring or waxing. They may also irritate the skin, making it difficult to soothe.
By putting moisturizer in your foundation, it will last longer. Beyond extending the life of the foundation, it will give you an attractive glow, rather than a caked-on, heavy look.
Wash makeup off thoroughly prior to going to bed. Use some warm water and a soft cloth; you can also use make up remover. Afterward, wash your face with your normal skin care regimen. If you do not get rid of the make-up, you might clog your pores and get pimples.
Be sure to exercise moderately every day. Daily exercise will help your body to stay looking young, fit, and healthy. It is definitely essential for personal beauty. You should be physically active for around twenty minutes each day. You could vacuum your home, walk around the block or whatever is exciting to you and gets you moving.
Buy duplicates of your favorite beauty products if you can. Keep these in a place that is convenient, like your purse or at work. This will keep you prepared should you forget part of your makeup routine on the go.
Honey needs to be on your beauty shopping list. It has many benefits when applied topically and eaten. When mixed with sugar, honey can be applied directly to your skin and used to exfoliate. Dropping some into a moisturizer helps your skin retain moisture for longer. Adding a tiny bit honey in your shampoo can make your hair shiny and softer.
Epsom salts are an excellent addition to your beauty routine. There are many health benefits to using epsom salts, including its use as a laxative and a sore muscle reliever. Prepare Epsom salts with a little lavender, mix into a paste using some water. Apply the paste to any problem areas, and leave it there all night. Your skin will look better by the next day.
Taking care of your hair is really important to your overall appearance, even if you’re a rugged, manly man. Conditioner is something you should always use, it’s not something you should view as an option.
Eyebrows are something that can increase a person’s beauty immensely. You should never let yourself have a uni-brow. If your eyebrows seem to connect in the middle or if they are too thick, you should trim them to enhance your appearance.
If you have facial skin that is dry, you may need to see a beautician for an application of an intensive moisturizing treatment. This kind of treatment was made to help with skin that’s dry on your face. It also refreshes your skin while smoothing it out because it rids it of dead skin. Herbal extracts, along with vitamins and minerals, can increase the elasticity of your skin and help restore the skin’s level of moisture.
You can be beautiful at any age if you have the right information. Thankfully, you’ve read this article and know how to adjust your beauty regime while you age. You can look great at any age.

Former President Trump said Sunday that a national abortion ban is “off the table,” but left the door open on the conversation by saying “we’ll see what happens.”
“Let me just tell you, I think that it’s something that’s off the table now, because I did something that everybody has wanted to do, I was able to get it back to the states,” Trump said on Fox News’s “Sunday Morning Futures.”
The former president said overturning Roe v. Wade was something “every Democrat and Republican wanted.”
“Everybody wanted it, and I did it,” he said. “Now, we’ll see what happens. I will say this, that issue has been, in my opinion, largely defused.”
Trump’s comments come a week after his wife, former first lady Melania Trump, went on the show and said she was pro-choice.
Abortion has been a difficult issue for Republicans, including Trump and running mate Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) on the campaign trail, as Democrats hammer them on the topic. Trump has said abortion policy should be left up to the states, while Democrats point to the number of states implementing strict abortion bans.
The former president said earlier this month that he would veto a federal abortion ban if it came across his desk in the White House.
But he also applauded the work of the conservative justices on the Supreme Court who overturned Roe v. Wade, taking credit for appointing them.
“For 52 years they’ve been fighting. Every legal scholar said it shouldn’t be in the federal government, it should be in the states and a vote of the people, let the people vote,” Trump said. “And I was able to do that because of six very brave and very smart [justices].”
Trump said it’s “very important” to have exceptions on abortion, including the life of the mother, rape and incest.

The diabetes and weight loss drug Ozempic could lower the risk of Alzheimer’s disease among people with Type 2 diabetes, according to a new study published Thursday.
Alzheimer’s disease is the seventh-leading cause of death in the United States, with roughly 120,000 people dying from the disease each year, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
There are about 7 million people in the U.S. who live with Alzheimer’s, and that number is expected to nearly double by 2050, according to the Alzheimer’s Association.
Researchers at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine looked at three years’ worth of electronic records of almost 1 million people with Type 2 diabetes.
The research group found that people who were prescribed semaglutide — the main ingredient in Ozempic — had a 40 percent to 70 percent reduced risk of developing Alzheimer’s compared to Type 2 diabetics who took one of another seven types of antidiabetic medications, including insulin.
Researchers also compared semaglutide with the use of other GLP-1s like lixisenatide, dulaglutide and liraglutide.
Semaglutide’s possible risk reduction for Alzheimer’s was seen across gender identities, age and weight groups, the study notes.
The study’s findings add to the research showing that GLP-1s, a group of diabetes and weight loss medications, may have more health benefits than boosting weight loss or regulating blood sugar levels.
One study published earlier this month suggests that the main ingredients in Ozempic and Mounjaro may help some people overcome drug and alcohol addictions. Another study published in May suggests that semaglutide may help protect Type 2 diabetics from kidney failure and chronic kidney disease.
It also supports research presented earlier this year suggesting a connection between GLP-1s and reduced Alzheimer’s risk among Type 2 diabetics.
But the Thursday study has limitations because it relies on data gathered from digital health records and requires further investigation, researchers said.
“Our results indicate that further research into semaglutide’s use will need to be further investigated through randomized clinical trials so alternative drugs can be tested as a potential treatment for this debilitating illness,” said Rong Xu, a biomedical informatics professor at Case Western and lead author of the study.

Can't Stop Fate
by Debra Kayn
Series: Ronacks Motorcycle Club #4
Genre: MC Romance
Mel Davis pledged his life to Ronacks Motorcycle Club as a sixteen-year-old runaway. He's committed his share of crimes through the years as he went from prospect to lifer, but none more dangerous than falling in love with Raelyn and her son, Dukie. Then, one night, he makes a decision that will forever change his life. And, he has no one else to blame but himself.
Five years after the death of her husband, Raelyn Williams has settled into managing the club-owned Pine Bar & Grill. The love, support, and protection she receives from Ronacks while being a single mom raising the son of a deceased Ronacks member provides her with everything she needs. Until, her wild mom, eccentric Grandma June, and her younger brother arrive at the bar out of the blue in a beat-up motorhome, complicating her life and disrupting her safe haven. Maybe their craziness is rubbing off on her because she suddenly finds Mel too sexy, too tempting, too dangerous.
There's no way she'll compromise herself by getting involved with another biker again. The club always comes first, and it only takes one dangerous activity for her to lose another person she loves.
She won't do it.
Raelyn glanced at Mel once she sat behind the desk, putting space between her and the biker. Lately, she'd become aware of depending on him too much. The feelings he evoked in her were too appealing and reminded her of how it was to be married. Even the frustration of never knowing when he'd show up. If he'd be late coming home. Or, how he knew exactly how to push her buttons.
At six foot two inches tall, a solid two hundred pounds, Mel had practically grown up with her during her twenties. He was three years younger than her, and during her marriage, she'd viewed him as an irresponsible man who partied hard, wasted his money, and used his status within the club to get his fill of women. But, during the time she'd grieved for Duke, had her son on her own, Mel had stepped forward and looked out for her. Though some days it felt like they'd gone in too different of directions to remain friends.
She became needier. He became more responsible.
Mel sat down on the couch in her office and stretched his legs. She bit her lip taking in his muscled thighs. He'd come back from his run with the club heavily whiskered and even more appealing. If it were only the fact that she was sex deprived and she found Mel sexy, she would've dealt with the problem months ago. Maybe even years ago.
At thirty-one years old, her brain told her she was still young enough to go out and find a good guy to fall in love with, who would be a good father for Dukie and settle down to enjoy a good life as a small family. Her heart told her that she had the best family already and not to wish for more or risk everything she had in her life. The Ronacks Motorcycle Club provided her with everything she needed. If she married outside the club, she'd lose the security they provided.
She shook the hair out of her face. Except, sex. God, she missed sex.
Debra Kayn is the author of the Bestselling Bantorus MC series, Moroad MC series, Red Light: Silver Girls series, Hard Body series, Playing For hearts series, and a huge backlist of books. She lives with her family in the Bitterroot Mountains of beautiful Northern Idaho where she enjoys the outdoors, the four seasons, and small-town living.

Econyl®︎ HALF TIGHTS(MEN)
SAVE OCEAN WITH RUNNING
Running tights with a comfortable fit
Running tights are great for sports as they don't hinder movement. Our Econyl®︎ HALF TIGHTS offers just the right amount of compression without compromising comfort. The moderate fit is snug enough so it won't ride down when you are running. The fabric feel is soft and thick enough to create a clean silhouette. Slipping into a pair of these will keep you moving and motivated.
Well-designed pocket to hold your phone
We pay attention to details that runners care about. A good pocket on a pair of running tights should keep the content securely but also not cause you any discomfort. Through trial and error, we found that a vertical pocket on the side hip is as the best solution. It will keep your phone from bouncing around when you are moving. Most importantly, placing the pocket at your hip is the most comfortable and won't affect your performance.
Choose Sustainable Fabrics
90% less CO2 emissions than conventional nylon

Compared to regular nylon, production of Econyl®︎ uses 60% less energy and emits 90% less CO2 by utilizing renewable energy. Even though it is a recycled material, the quality of the fabric is on par with conventional nylon.
HERENESS directly licenses this next-generation material from Aquafil. The attached Econyl®︎ tag is a sign of trust, and the colorful designs come in various patterns, so you can look forward to seeing which design your tag arrives with.
Saving our oceans from plastic pollution
According to WWF, at least 8 million tons of plastic waste (equivalent to 50,000 jumbo jets in weight) are dumped in the oceans every year, adding to the eixisting 150 million tons of marine plastic pollution. Econyl®︎ not only reduces waste, but promotes reuse of resources. By using Econyl®︎, we are cutting plastic use throughout our supply chain and lessening the impact of our products on the environment.

Lloyd Banks and 50 Cent have grown apart since their G-Unit days, with 50 even calling Banks “lazy” in his 2020 book Hustle Harder, Hustle Smarter. But during a recent interview with GQ, Lloyd Banks opened up about his healthy relationship with 50 Cent and revealed he gave him words of motivation during their last conversation.
“It’s the same. We’re brothers,” he said about their relationship. “We came into this together—we’re never all going to be doing the same thing at the same time at this point in our careers. You know what I mean? The last conversation I had with 50 was basically him telling me to get whatever I left out there. Because some hiatuses were planned and some weren’t.”
He continued, “But I can’t sit and cry about spilled milk. I’ve gotta go out there and make it happen. We did something special that will never be done again. Honestly, there are more positive moments than anything else. That’s where I’m at with [50 Cent and Tony Yayo]: We’re brothers and it’s always going to be that way.”
In his book Hustle Harder, Hustle Smarter, 50 Cent said he felt like he could have done a better job teaching Lloyd Banks and Tony Yayo “how to evolve and change their habits,” claiming they had “unfulfilled potential.”
“While I was out hustling, Banks was more content staying on his porch and watching the world from there,” he says in the book. “Banks wanted things to come to him, as opposed to going out and getting them for himself. That’s not me trying to assassinate his character—the guy has ‘Lazy Lloyd’ tattooed on his arm. He literally wears his laziness on his sleeve.”
Lloyd Banks had more positive words about 50 Cent during a recent appearance on the Joe Budden Podcast, where he gave him high praise for his skill as a songwriter.
“He wasn’t just a writer, he was an exceptional songwriter,” he said on the episode that premiered on Thursday (July 14). “Just conceptually and sticking to the whole subject matter, which was a plus for me because you’re looking around the game, there wasn’t many like that. Some of the biggest artists weren’t the best songwriters – he was.”
He added, “The outros, the bridges, all of these things I learned from watching him record. And they were cheat codes because if I had the illest 16, he would steal the show. I didn’t have that yet.”

The African Development Bank (ADB) recently announced that it was providing US$287 million in funding over the next three years to Cape Verde. This investment will go towards developing the country’s infrastructure, according to an announcement from Cape Verde’s ambassador to Portugal, Arnadlo Andrade.
“The ADB’s announcement of a US$287 million programme for the next three years means significant support for Cape Verde in terms of the options made in its development strategy and infrastructure options. This is a good sign because it gives all the partners confidence to continue focusing on the country,” the ambassador said.
The announcement for ADB investment comes on the heels of aid that was recently granted by Portugal and Austria. Portugal provides direct budgetary aid to the country and will provide 7 million euros between 2008 and 2011. Austria’s Finance Minister Cristina Duarte recently announced an accord to provide 4 million euros in aid to Cape Verde. This money is aimed at implementing the country’s environmental policy, according to the announcement.

A distributed workforce security plan has been made paramount because of recent, global, events. Where should technology leaders start?
How has the pandemic-induced movement towards remote work affected security and productivity of different organisations? And what do these organisations have in common when trying to adapt and grow in unison with a distributed workforce security plan?
With Keme Nzerem moderating, the speakers of this roundtable include:
- Ahmed Nabil Mahmoud, CISO, Standard Chartered Bank
- Amanda Hamilton, CIO, City and County Healthcare Group
- Hicham Faik, Global CISO, Attijariwafa Bank
- Kieran Higgins, Head of Digital Workplace Transformation, Cisco
As the working world evolves into one of a hybrid nature, it is paramount that those working from home can not only perform like before, but can do so securely. Kieran Higgins, head of digital transformation at Cisco, explained that security is about making sure people have access to the necessary tools virtually, as the pandemic has stunted office resources.
Amanda Hamilton, chief information officer at City & County Healthcare Group, informs us that for her, connectivity was a vital factor in prioritising security and productivity. She goes on to discuss the prevalence of PPE in a pandemic amidst a competitive market and how it meant resorting to the use of the government and third parties from around the world.
When a worldwide epidemic occurs and alters our way of life as we know it, not only must we develop the technical intricacies of our organisations, but we must also make room for an alteration in culture. A distributed workforce security strategy must understand the cultural components of a workforce if it is to become embedded within its psyche.
Ahmed Nabil Mahmoud of Standard Chartered Bank spoke of the technical complications within the financial field: “the main concern that was coming there was the leverage and the usage of different collaboration tools because of the massive push to work remotely”.
He reflected on the difficulty of having no playbook amidst such unprecedented times, and how the intense culture change is hard to navigate.
Hicham Faik of Attijariwafa Bank agreed that the distributed workforce security challenge was technical and cultural. In regard to the technical shift, he revealed that VPNs were put in place to secure connections and strengthen the way people access applications, as this used to be accessed from inside the network. Education is a huge part of culture and it was another priority to explain to employees how to connect securely from their houses.
Briefly outlining issues that can arise from this change, Faik mused over the question of companies asking employees to use their personal phones from home. Do they have the right to ask this? He explains that three of the main challenges of this cultural shift were privacy, communication and safety.
Another crucial element in workplace culture that each field has in common is equality and ethics. With remote working having to operate so differently and being a far newer approach, there are gaps and areas for improvement.
Amanda Hamilton discussed this, explaining that “the experience in office was robust, whereas remote working was more discreet…so as to not open up entire systems to remote access.” She concludes by saying that we must now open up systems in as seamless a way as possible, so that those who retain remote working have an equal experience.
Kieran Higgins adds to this notion, stating that democratising the relationship between in-office work and remote work aims for an “equitable relationship between the in-office experience and the remote experience”, thereby bringing together a single solution for a distributed workforce security plan.
Questions to be considered
Of course, such a shift is not achieved without difficulty, and the participants of the conversation explain the main obstacles to overcome.
Ahmed questions what might happen to IT staff that need to work remotely to solve problems. He then goes on to voice his concern over what happens to business managers that need to have the right reporting from business applications, as pre-pandemic there was access from the inside, and finally he questioned what will happen to developers in regards to critical infrastructures from outside the network. These are all concerns that are in the process of being actively addressed and worked around by businesses all over the world.
It seems that each individual values HR and strategy, standard operating procedures (established teleworking, monitoring of VPNs etc.) and proactive discussion regarding performance, limitation and awareness within a shifting organisation. It is through these key factors, that the participants believe security and productivity is achieved.
This roundtable on distributed workforce security was created in partnership with Menlo Security.

Lynn Wyatt is the featured subject on Tory Burch's website. (The two are such good friends that the designer stayed at Wyatt's home during a recent Houston visit.) In a segment on The Tory Blog called "Cat's Meow," Wyatt, who is referred to as "style icon, legendary philanthropist and major league hostess," shares the secrets of her success and talks about other topics.
We thought we knew everything about Wyatt but we learned a few things from the exchange. Among her answers:
I love being a Texans because: The Texas girl has an innate can-do spirit, a combination of athletic prowess and smarts!
The best piece of advice I've ever received: Live in the moment. Laugh a lot and love a lot.
The secret to being a good hostess: To do all the preparation and work, even at the last minute, then when the doorbell rings, have fun at your own party.
Book I'm reading now: Alice Munro's Runaway. Munro has an understanding of people dealing with life between women and men that is eye opening.

challenges experienced in the just concluded grade three assessment.
Recently Kenya conducted its first grade three assessment under the competency-based curriculum, CBC. The ministry of education and the relevant stakeholders saw this as a feasible exercise after the pilot study conducted in 235 schools in 2018.
The roll-out was aimed at testing the competency of early learners. However, the learners are not to be ranked at the end of the exercisehence making it different from the usual exam setup.
During and prior to the roll-out, the schools experienced a number of challenges. some of the challenges included;
Lack of resources
Public primary schools lacked the required resources to facilitate the roll-out. the assessment was sent to the school in soft copy, this required printing hence access to the internet.
It came to our attention that some of the schools didn’t have computers or even printers to carry out the work. Due to this inefficiency, they had to outsource the services in far of places which ended up being costly.
Parental engagement was one of the key components to ensuring the success of the CBC. This required the parents to be actively involved in the learners affair.
However, this couldn’t be achieved if the parent didn’t understand the requirement or lacked the capacity to provide for said child. As a result of this, the responsibility of providing for the student squarely fell back to the schools that also lack the required resources.
The Ministry of Education, Teachers Service Commission and the relevant stakeholders were charged with the responsibility of ensuring that the teachers were well trained.
The trainings were conducted half hazardly and in a rushed manner. This later on impacted negatively on the quality of education offered and the preparedness of the pupils.

British Airways has unveiled a new uniform for the first time in nearly 20 years. The collection, designed by Ghanaian-British fashion designer Ozwald Boateng OBE, will be worn by more than 30,000 members of the airline’s staff beginning in Spring 2023.
According to a press release, the collection includes a tailored three-piece suit for men with regular and slim fit style trousers, as well as dress, skirt, and trouser options for women, as well as a modern jumpsuit, an airline first. Female cabin crew can now choose between a tunic and a hijab.
To create the collection, Boateng spent time shadowing colleagues in their roles at the airline. The airwave pattern, which appears on jackets, t-shirts, buttons, and ties, was inspired by the movement of air over an aircraft wing, according to British Airways. The jacquard fabric used across all tailored garments features a variation of the airline’s iconic speedmarque, according to the airline.
The airline has been secretly testing the uniforms for the last six months to ensure that they are fit for purpose, according to the airline.
“Designing this uniform was a vast and painstaking undertaking that went far beyond clothes,” said Boateng, who has been working on the collection since 2018. It was all about inducing an internal energetic shift. One of my primary goals was to create something that spoke to and for the airline’s employees. Something that inspired and empowered them, encouraged them to take pride in their roles, and most importantly, made them feel seen and heard. Despite the airline’s strong heritage, it was critical to assist in creating a new narrative of change and transcendence while remaining timely.”
Boateng was born on the 28th of February, 1967. Many people like and admire the fashion designer for his signature take on classic tailoring and bespoke style. Boateng was born in Muswell Hill, North London, after his parents immigrated from Ghana in the 1950s. He draws inspiration from his father’s impeccable suits when he was younger.
His passion for fashion has been evident since childhood, as evidenced by the fact that he was only fourteen when he found himself a summer job sewing linings into suits.

With the arrival of the holiday season, many HR departments are tasked with handling important aspects of workplace operations such as scheduling vacation time and making preparations to wrap up the year. And often, with all of this work comes the opportunity to celebrate another year and have some fun with colleagues at the annual holiday party.
When planning your company’s holiday party, however, there are several legal considerations that you will want to bear in mind. Although it is intended to be fun, the party is still a work event, and it is up to HR to make sure that everything goes off without a hitch.
One serious concern for HR is sexual harassment. Even if the party is held out of the office, it is still a company event, and transgressions that take place can still have ramifications for the business. However, as Payscale notes, a lawsuit may not always make the company liable. It is important to employ best practices to ensure that a lawsuit does not happen at all and that all employees are able to have a safe and fun time.
A sexual harassment claim is not the only threat an office party can pose. The article goes on to further explain the possible dangers of an employee becoming injured or even dying as a result of a company event. Involving alcohol may contribute to the possibility of an accident taking place. Ultimately, it is up to HR to know the possible liabilities involved in different celebratory events, and act in the best interest of the company.
When it comes to maintaining a safe and compliant workplace, a comprehensive HR software solution can help manage every important detail.

Photography is an art form which one does only out of passion. People do have a passion of framing things, scenes and lives in order to capture moments. But only passion will not help if one needs to take photography as a career.
In order to give the career a good back support one needs to do a photography course which has to have some academic validation. There are some photographic institutes where one can enrol themselves and get a degree on what they are passionate about.
Now, if one has the basic knowledge of photography; then they can easily take up the advanced courses that are offered in a photographic institute. Technology is taking its own course and things are developing real fast. In advanced course, people can get to learn how to stay at par with the technological advancement in photography so that later when they take it up as a profession they should never appear as backdated in front of the client. But of one has no knowledge in photography and still wants to take up a photography course; because they want to learn it; then they can always opt for a beginners course where they begin with the basic use of camera and the knowledge of the functions of different parts of a camera.
Not only this, but a photography course also has several other variations. One can take up a professional course depending on what kind of photography they want to pursue on future. There are different genres in photography like food photography, portrait photography, product photography, nature and wildlife photography, fashion photography and many more. One always needs to take up a course depending on what genre they want to take up as a career option.
When taking up a photographic course one should keep in mind certain things. They should check online to find out about the institutes and check their reputation before enrolling there. Also checking their teaching staff is also very important. One can also take recommendations from friends who have already done a course in photography.
Check whether the course you are trying to enrol in whether have both practical and theoretical classes or not. This is because; in a photography course, practical classes are very important because it is not only about theory. If one is enrolling in a wildlife and nature photography course; then the faculty should take them for an excursion in a wildlife sanctuary or in any other place to find out how well they have grasped the knowledge that has been given to them in classes.
Also one needs to check how well, the course structure in designed. One can compare the course structures among institutes before finalising down one course. Also check the course fees in an institute. One should zero down to a course only if it fits their budget.
One can take courses on some best photography classes and then obtain a degree so that they can take it as a profession easily.

Interbank closing: PKR gains four paisa against USD
- Web Desk
- Jun 28, 2024
WEB DESK: In the closing trading session of the fiscal year 2023-24, the Pakistani rupee (PKR) concluded on a positive note, showing a slight uptick of 0.01 per cent against the US dollar (USD) in the inter-bank market on Friday.
The local currency settled at 278.34 at close, marking a modest gain of Re0.04 compared to its previous close of 278.38 on Thursday, where it had appreciated by Re0.02.
Throughout recent weeks, the Pakistani rupee has generally held steady within the range of 277 to 279 against the US dollar. This stability comes amidst Pakistan’s ongoing efforts to secure a substantial International Monetary Fund (IMF) bailout programme.
Notably, the rupee, which had stood at 285.99 against the dollar on June 27, 2023, has maintained relative stability for the majority of the fiscal year. This stability has been supported by regulatory measures implemented by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) last September aimed at curbing illicit currency trading and smuggling.
During the fiscal year 2023-24, the PKR recorded a year-on-year appreciation of 2.8 per cent against the US dollar, marking a significant turnaround after three years of depreciation.
Market analysts attribute this appreciation to improved economic indicators observed over the fiscal year, including a narrowing current account deficit, increased foreign inflows, reduced spreads between open and inter-bank rates, and various administrative interventions.
Meanwhile, internationally, the US dollar has been strengthening, poised for its second consecutive quarterly gain and reaching nearly a four-decade high against the yen in Asian markets on Friday.
This movement comes ahead of a crucial US inflation report, underscoring global economic dynamics impacting currency markets.

Shortly after the blast occurred, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif condemned the attack, expressing sorrow over the loss of life. He ordered for immediate medical assistance to the injured, and requested an incident report from the Balochistan government.
Similarly, the Chief Minister of Balochistan, Sarfraz Bugti, also condemned the attack, stating that “terrorists are targeting innocent civilians.” “We will pursue the terrorists and bring them to justice,” Bugti said, adding that “we will eradicate terrorism from Balochistan.”
The Federal Minister of Information, Atta Tarar, condemned the blast, stating “we are determined to eradicate terrorism from the country.” He added that “we will take every necessary step to eliminate terrorism from the nation.”
Chief Minister Punjab Maryam Nawaz offered her condolences before stating that “terrorists who attack unarmed civilians will certainly face their end.”
Governor of Balochistan Jaffar Khan Mandokhail stated that “there is no room for such incidents in a peaceful city like Quetta.” He ordered for immediate and strict action to be taken against the perpetrators of the attack.
“All available resources will be used to prevent such incidents,” the governor stated. He also instructed for immediate medical attention to be provided to the injured.
Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi expressed sorrow over the horrific events, as he prayed for the speedy recovery of the injured. The Interior Minister offered his sympathies to the families of the deceased, after he condemned the perpetrators stating “terrorists who target innocent people do not deserve any leniency.”
Following a call with Sarfraz Bugti, Naqvi said that “together, we will take joint actions against terrorism.” The Interior Minister remarked, “the federal government will provide all possible assistance to the Balochistan government in the fight against terrorism.”
Pakistan People’s Party chairman Bilawal Bhutto also expressed sorrow over the tragic attack, as he offered condolences to those affected saying, “we share in the grief of the affected families.”

Thursday Night Football lit up the Philadelphia skyline as the Eagles faced off against the Minnesota Vikings, delivering an action-packed showdown that had fans on the edge of their seats. With a final score of 34-28 in favor of the Eagles, this game was a rollercoaster of emotions. Let's break down the key moments and standout performances that led to the Eagles' thrilling victory.
Eagles' Ground Game Dominates
One constant throughout the game was the Eagles' formidable ground game. They rushed for over 250 yards, showcasing their prowess in controlling the game's tempo. D'Andre Swift was the star of the show, rushing for an astonishing 175 yards, marking the most rushing yards by an Eagles player since LeSean McCoy in 2013. This performance was especially crucial with Kenneth Gainwell sidelined due to ribs injury.
One standout sequence occurred in the first half when Philadelphia orchestrated a 16-play, 75-yard drive, featuring an impressive 13 rushes. Jalen Hurts, the Eagles' dynamic quarterback, contributed two rushing touchdowns, emphasizing his versatility as a dual-threat quarterback. His total of 28 career rush touchdowns ties him with Cam Newton for the most through a QB's first 50 career games.
Despite some inconsistencies in the passing game, the Eagles proved that their ground game is a reliable asset that can carry them through tough situations.
DeVonta Smith's Breakout Performance
DeVonta Smith, the Eagles' rookie wide receiver, had a breakout game that left fans in awe. Smith recorded four catches for 131 yards and a touchdown, including two receptions for over 50 yards each. His speed and route-running abilities were on full display, showcasing his potential for a stellar career in the NFL.
Cornerback Darius Slay boldly predicted that Smith is on the path to becoming one of the league's best receivers, and while it may be too early to make such claims, Smith's performance undoubtedly suggests a bright future ahead.
Hurts' Sneak Attack
Jalen Hurts' knack for converting QB sneaks into touchdowns was evident once again. Including playoffs, he has an impressive 10 rushing touchdowns on QB sneaks since last season, a remarkable feat considering he has seven more than any other quarterback. The "tush push" strategy, where teammates push him forward, has been instrumental in his success, with Hurts converting 34 of 36 sneaks in the last two seasons, including playoffs.
Pivotal Defensive Play
With the Eagles nursing a 13-7 lead in the third quarter, defensive end Josh Sweat made a game-changing play by knocking the ball loose from Vikings' quarterback Kirk Cousins. Fletcher Cox's recovery and subsequent return to Minnesota's seven-yard line set up a Hurts touchdown, shifting the momentum decisively in Philadelphia's favor. This pivotal play marked the turning point in the game and sealed the Eagles' victory.
Vikings Struggle with Ball Control
While the Vikings managed to turn a 27-7 deficit into a one-score game on two occasions in the fourth quarter, their struggles with ball control proved costly. They lost four fumbles in the game, including one by star receiver Justin Jefferson as he reached for the end zone. These turnovers, combined with a sloppy performance in their Week 1 loss, set an unwanted record for the Vikings, making them the first NFL team since 2003 to lose six fumbles in the first two games of a season.
The Vikings now find themselves at 0-2 and facing a challenging schedule with games against top quarterbacks Justin Herbert and Patrick Mahomes, along with a matchup against the formidable San Francisco 49ers. To salvage their season, they'll need to address their ball security issues and revitalize their running game.
In contrast, the Eagles are flying high with a 2-0 record. While their passing game may have had its ups and downs, their dominant ground attack and emerging star, DeVonta Smith, make them a team to watch as the season unfolds. Their next challenge awaits on September 24th, Monday night, against the Los Angeles Chargers, who are 1-0 and set to face the Titans on September 17th.
The Eagles' victory over the Vikings was a testament to their resilience and adaptability. With promising performances and a commitment to their ground game, they have their sights set on a successful season ahead.

Following the outbreak and spread of the deadly Coronavirus, the Federal Government, Wednesday, advised all travellers from Nigeria, including those, planning to travel to China, to suspend their travel plans until further notice.
This advisory was dropped by the Minister of Health, Dr Osagie Ehanire, while addressing State House Correspondents in Abuja.
He was speaking in regards to Nigeria’s preparedness to prevent the new global health scourge, the Coronavirus, from spreading to Nigeria.
Ehanire also said those arriving in the country from China or any of the countries with a major outbreak of the disease would be under watch.
“In view of the trending stories around the Coronavirus, it has become very necessary to issue a travel advisory to Nigerians.
“The first is that all Nigerians and all from Nigeria, intending to travel to China should delay all their travel plans until further notice, except it is extremely essential for them to do that trip.
“All persons arriving from China or any country that has a major outbreak is advised, if they have no symptoms at all, to self isolate, meaning that they stay indoors in their homes for at least two weeks and if they develop any symptoms, like cough, catarrh, sneezing, breathing difficulties within this period, to report to the nearest health facility.
“We are also advising all airlines to report any case of a passenger falling sick on-board before the plane lands. That is a requirement in the agreement. Nigerian Port Health Services, Nigeria Centre for Disease Control are on alert at our airports and other points of entry. That is the advisory.
“We don’t have statistics on the number of Chinese returning to this country, [from Lunar Year holiday] but what I can telling you is that for those who traveled and meet the conditions we mentioned can come back to their work.
“I also want to remind you that there are very many Nigerians in China who will be coming home, not only Chinese and other people who have works to do in Nigeria from that area. We are not using your nationality as a criterion, we are using your state of health”, he said.

Community member Vikas Arora left this comment on Brené Brown’s TED Talk, Listening to shame.
“Your openness, honesty and exposure to vulnerability has truly moved me. Your insight into shame is inspiring at so many levels. There is another TED talk in there somewhere that I feel could benefit cultures that believe that shame is a weapon that gives people power over others.
I did believe that vulnerability in men is seen as a sign of weakness. This view changed recently when I saw my 17 year old son, who generally is far removed from expressing emotion, break down and cry when my wife told us that she might be diagnosed with cancer. His vulnerability became her strength and mine. It has brought us closer together.
It’s always good for men to show their vulnerability among those that love and respect them. It shows trust, comfort and inner strength.”

The number of new permanent residents to Canada under the Start-Up Visa (SUV) immigration program more than doubled in May from April, reveals the latest data from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
In May, 75 foreign nationals became new permanent residents to Canada under the entrepreneurship program, up 114.3 per cent, or 40 additional new permanent residents, from the 35 during the month of April.
In the first five months of this year, the SUV welcomed 250 new permanent residents, or 4.2 per cent more than the 240 during the comparable period last year.
Canada’s Immigration Levels Plan forecasts new arrivals of 3,500 by the end of this year through the federal business category. The category includes the SUV and the Self-Employed Program.
Ontario, Nova Scotia And Newfoundland All Saw Canada Jobs Growth In June
Canada Targets French-Language Candidate In Fourth Express Entry Draw This Week
Prince Edward Island Issues 90 Canada Immigration Invitations In New PNP Draw
As overall immigration to Canada dipped by 34.6 per cent in April compared to the previous month, so too did the number of new permanent residents arriving through the SUV fall that month. In April, the SUV welcomed 30 per cent fewer new permanent residents to Canada, only 35, compared to the 50 in March.
But then immigration to Canada roared back to life in May, spiking back up 55.1 per cent to 45,825 new permanent residents, far above the 29,545 new permanent residents to the country in April. And the SUV’s figures followed in tandem.
Ontario And British Columbia Are SUV Hot Spots
The most popular destinations for immigrant entrepreneurs arriving under the SUV so far this year have been British Columbia and Ontario.
The West Coast province of British Columbia had welcomed 105 new permanent residents through the SUV by the end of May while Ontario had received 110 new permanent residents through the program.
Alberta added 15 new permanent residents through the program during the comparable period this year. Manitoba welcomed 30 immigrant entrepreneurs through the SUV in the first five months this year. Nova Scotia added 10.
None of the other provinces or territories added any new permanent residents through the SUV in the first five months of this year.
The SUV program generates much lower overall numbers of new permanent residents than federal worker programs, such as the Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) and Federal Skilled Trade (FST), the Provincial Nominee Programs (PNP) or the regional economic development programs including the Atlantic Immigration Program (AIP) or Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot (RNIP).
Due to these smaller numbers, the monthly fluctuations in the number of new permanent residents under the SUV can sometimes seem exaggerated when examined in percentage terms.
Work Permits Allow SUV Candidates To Come To Canada While Application Being Processed
Candidates applying under the SUV program can initially come to Canada on a work permit supported by their designated Canadian investor before their application for permanent residence is finalized.
The entire process of applying for permanent residence to Canada through the SUV is currently estimated by the IRCC to take 33 months.
A designated venture capital fund must confirm that it is investing at least $200,000 into the qualifying business. Candidates can also qualify with two or more commitments from designated venture capital funds totalling $200,000.
A designated angel investor group must invest at least $75,000 into the qualifying business. Candidates can also qualify with two or more investments from angel investor groups totalling $75,000.
A designated business incubator must accept the applicant into its business incubator program. It is up to the immigrant investor to develop a viable business plan that will meet the due diligence requirements of these government-approved designated entities.
Immigrant Entrepreneurs Often Use Services Of Business Immigration Lawyers To Set Up Companies
That investing and the development of the business is usually done with the help of business consultants in Canada’s start-up ecosystem with oversight from experienced corporate business immigration lawyers who can ensure a start-up’s business concept meets all industry-required terms and conditions.
The basic government-imposed candidate eligibility requirements for the SUV are:
- a qualifying business;
- a commitment certificate and letter of support from a designated entity;
- sufficient unencumbered, available and transferable settlement funds to meet settlement funding, and;
- proficiency in English or French at the minimum Canadian Language Benchmark level 5. However, it frequently occurs that higher levels of English are needed to meet due diligence requirements imposed by designated entities.

What’s a Good Search Engine?
Some popular and effective search engines include Google, Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, and Ask.com. Google is the most widely used and highly regarded search engine due to its fast and accurate search results. However, other search engines such as DuckDuckGo are noted for their emphasis on user privacy and not tracking user data. Ultimately, the best search engine for you will depend on your search preferences and priorities.
What are 5 major search engines?
What is the cleanest search engine?
DuckDuckGo is often considered one of the cleanest search engines due to its focus on user privacy and lack of targeted advertising. It does not track user activity or collect personal information, making it a popular choice for those seeking a more private and secure search experience.
What won’t Censor Political Speech?
First Amendment to the United States Constitution, which protects freedom of speech, including political speech. Laws and regulations that restrict political speech, except in cases of clear and present danger or incitement to violence, are generally considered unconstitutional. However, certain forms of speech may be subject to limitations, such as obscenity, defamation, incitement to violence, or hate speech.
What is censorship in politics?
Censorship in politics refers to the deliberate suppression or control of information, ideas, or opinions by government authorities or powerful entities in order to manipulate public perception, shape political discourse, or maintain their own power. This can include limiting freedom of speech, press censorship, restricting access to information, or controlling the spread of dissenting viewpoints. Censorship in politics can have a significant impact on democracy, transparency, and the ability of citizens to hold their leaders accountable.
What does the censor indicate?
The censor indicates that certain content has been removed or modified to comply with guidelines or regulations, often to protect sensitive information or maintain social standards.
Difference Between Good Search Engine and Censor Political Speech
A good search engine is one that provides accurate and relevant search results based on the user’s query. It does not censor or manipulate search results to favor a particular political agenda or viewpoint.
On the other hand, censoring political speech involves suppressing or limiting the dissemination of certain political views or opinions. This can be done by search engines by manipulating search results to hide or de-prioritize certain political content, or by outright blocking or removing content that goes against a particular political narrative.
The main difference between a good search engine and censoring political speech is that a good search engine aims to provide unbiased and relevant search results, while censoring political speech involves controlling the flow of information to suppress dissenting opinions or ideas.
When selecting a search engine, understanding what each platform offers in terms of privacy, data handling, and approach to content filtering is essential. Google, Bing, and Yahoo lead with extensive features and algorithms, while DuckDuckGo is popular among privacy-conscious users. A reliable search engine should balance fast, accurate results without prioritizing specific agendas. Ultimately, the best choice will depend on individual needs—whether prioritizing comprehensive search power, privacy, or an uncensored browsing experience.

Swiggy's ongoing IPO brings it head-to-head with market leader Zomato.
Zomato’s FY24 performance — with ₹12,114 crore in revenue and first-time profits — outshines that of Swiggy, which remains loss-making despite the latter’s revenue growth.
Moreover, brokerages indicate that Zomato is outperforming Swiggy in multiple areas beyond just revenue. According to Motilal Oswal, Zomato surpasses Swiggy in gross order value, profitability and market share.
Elara Capital pointed out that Swiggy's quick commerce service, Instamart, trails behind Blinkit in several key metrics, including revenue growth and take rates. The analysis suggests Zomato is solidly positioned against Swiggy across various performance indicators ahead of its anticipated market debut.
Here is a breakdown of the revenue sources for both companies

Being a successful entrepreneur is difficult and it is easy to become derailed very quickly. In our podcast ‘5 Stages of Service-Based Entrepreneurship’, Darnyelle Jervey Harmon says “An employee mindset will keep you stuck in the launch stage”. Moving forward from being a struggling startup to a profitable company depends largely on your mindset as a business owner. And one of the most efficient ways to get into the mindset of a successful entrepreneur is through embracing new business tools like data analytics.
In a nutshell, data analytics for businesses enables entrepreneurs to predict the actions of their customers based on past data. For instance, Atlanta Small Business Network shares how business data analytics can yield recommendations about products and services to customers. While it’s true that hiring analytics experts or buying data analytics tools can be expensive, considering what it can do for your struggling startup it’s bound to pay for itself in the long run. By being able to anticipate customer needs through the latest analytics software, you can better organize your product inventory or service menu, build long-term relationships with clients/customers, and ultimately stride towards long-term growth. The formula is simple: the more informed you are about your customer base, the better you can do business.
Besides, whether or not you personally believe in the value of business data analytics, the numbers speak for themselves. Maryville University reports that the analytics technology and solutions market will enjoy a compound annual growth rate of 11.7% by 2020. The online university also notes how the global revenue of big data analytics in 2020 is predicted to balloon to a staggering $203 billion, while the U.S. business data analytics market alone will be worth $95 billion. These numbers are a clear indication of the value of data analytics to the future of business, particularly banking, process manufacturing, discrete manufacturing, government, and professional services. If you’re a small business owner, you’re going to need analytics on your side if you want to stand a chance against established companies in your industry.
Let’s be honest – there’s still something that’s holding you back from accepting the role of analytics in business. It’s true that for really tight budgets, the annual cost can be significant, and analytics is only truly worth the cost if it’s applied long-term. This is understandable – no small business would be willing to take money from vital departments in order to pay for a whole new solution, especially when your ROI is still largely unpredictable. But as Entrepreneur notes, good data analytics can tell you what your bottom line figures can’t – answers to questions that are vital for your company’s growth. While ordinary accounting can tell you how many customers you had and how much money you made, analytics can tell you who’s buying your product, why you’re gaining or losing customers, and even give you an accurate estimate of just how loyal your customer base is. Having this information about your small business can make you a significantly more competitive player in the game. The younger your business is, the more you need business data analytics on your side.
