{"text": "Obama moves to overhaul 'war on terror' practices\nIn three executive orders signed Thursday, he departs sharply from Bush's policies on Guantanamo, CIA prisons, and harsh interrogation tactics.\n- President Obama signs a series of executive orders, including one beginning the process of closing the US detention camp at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, Thursday in the Oval Office.Charles Dharapak/APView Caption.\nThe US Supreme Court has agreed to examine the legality of his ongoing detention. The case is expected to be set for oral argument in March or April and be decided by late June. It marks the most significant Supreme Court test yet of the Bush administration’s controversial legal approach to the war on terror.\nAt issue in the case is whether the president has the power to designate a legal US resident, which Mr. al-Marri was at the time of his apprehension, as an enemy combatant and order that person held indefinitely in military detention. The Obama administration has asked the high court for a 30-day extension to file its brief, and the president’s memo directs US officials to “undertake a prompt and thorough review of the factual and legal basis for al-Marri’s continued detention.” The memo says the officials should “identify and thoroughly evaluate alternative dispositions.”\nAl-Marri’s lawyer, Jonathan Hafetz of the American Civil Liberties Union, says he is hopeful the Obama administration will reject the legal position of the Bush administration. He says the new administration should release his client and allow him to return home to his family in Qatar.\n“Any objective and clear-minded review will show that this detention is illegal,” Mr. Hafetz says. “We fully expect that if the Obama administration goes forward [with the case], Al-Marri’s detention will be struck down by the Supreme Court.”\nIn statements from human rights experts, Obama won high praise for his fast action on Guantanamo and banning torture.\n“America’s greatest strengths – our core values – are once again clear to the world,” said Douglas Johnson, executive director of the Center for Victims of Torture.\nJennifer Kaskal, senior counterterrorism counsel at Human Rights Watch, called it “a major step toward restoring America’s moral authority around the world.”\nLarry Cox, executive director of Amnesty International USA, praised Obama for “moving quickly to restore the United States’ role as a positive force for human rights in the world.” He added, “With a stroke of a pen, President Obama initiated this nation’s return to the rule of law.”\nNot all analysts were pleased with Obama’s moves.\nHouse Republican Leader John Boehner warned that the new policies and closing Guantanamo might place the country in peril. “The Guantanamo Bay prison is filled with the worst of the worst – terrorists and killers bent on murdering Americans and other friends of freedom around the world,” he said in a statement. “If it is closed, where will they go?”\nMr. Boehner added, “Republicans want to work with our president to address these national security concerns, but we should not gamble with the safety and security of the American people and our troops on the battlefield.”"}

I had the opportunity to go to the first practice round for the 2007 US Open at Oakmont GC and thought I would share the photos. After what I saw during the practice rounds I wouldn't expect very low scores. First, you could lose a small child in the rough. It's waist deep in some places. Second, this course is just plain difficult. Many of the greens slope from front to back making it extremely difficult to stop shots. The course is also very hilly and the fairways slope from one side to the other causing even well placed shots to produce difficult lies in the middle of the fairway. The final and deadliest weapon Oakmont has are it's greens. They are just CRAZY fast and devilishly hard to read. We watched the best players in the world for 8 hours and only saw 2 putts holed from over 10 feet away. I watched Tiger Woods try the same 5 foot putt 6 times and only make it once on #13. He then went 0 for 6 from 5 feet on #14. When one of the best putters in the history of the game can't sink a 5 footer it tells me these greens are TOUGH!\nAnother little footnote I wanted to mention about the US Open is the amount of security is incredible. Before you get on the bus to go to the course you have to go through airport-like security. They have metal detectors set up and you have to empty your pockets so if you're thinking about taking a camera or a cellphone forget about it. (cameras are allowed during practice rounds but no cellphones) Once you get to the course there are secret service looking guys everywhere. You know the type, they spend a lot of time talking into their sleeves, look like they could squeeze the life out of you with their pinky, and they are wearing holsters with big guns in them.

{"text": "By:\nWilliam A. Galston,\nArthur C. Brooks\nJanuary 16, 2016\nIn the Fall 2015 Claremont Review of Books, William A. Galston reviewed The Conservative Heart: How to Build a Fairer, Happier, and More Prosperous America, by Arthur C. Brooks. Both gentlemen have agreed to pursue here questions raised in the book and review. Dr. Brooks is president of the American Enterprise Institute, where he is also the Beth and Ravenel Curry Scholar in Free Enterprise. Dr. Galston is a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, where he holds the Ezra K. Zilkha Chair in Governance Studies.\nArthur Brooks: Let me kick off this exchange with a few words of thanks. First, to Bill Galston. Every author’s hope is that a new book will spark lively conversations and tempt serious thinkers to engage with its arguments. I’m grateful that Bill spent some time with The Conservative Heart and offered such a thorough and interesting reaction. Thanks also to Bill Voegeli for convening this conversation, and to CRB for hosting it online.\nNow for the fun part.\nBill:\nAs I read and re-read your review, two major contentions stuck out as particularly interesting to me:\nFirst, I read you as arguing that modern conservatism needs a deep ideological overhaul, not merely cosmetic tweaks, to succeed (and that The Conservative Heart leans too much on the latter).\nAnd second, you point out that antipoverty programs are only one small component of economic policy writ large. You argue that focusing intently on helping the poor will be politically insufficient, since a larger group of middle-class voters will feel that conservatives aren’t making their lives any easier.\nI’ll briefly discuss each of these points and then look forward to your thoughts.\nFirst, let me tackle all priors and starting over. Rather, history shows us that successful political adjustments tend fall between these extremes.\nTake both my example of Reagan-era Republicans and your natural tonal strengths of the left, Clinton declared peace on free enterprise and the end of welfare as we knew it.\nI think upward into the upper-middle class.\nVery few readers, I think, would come away with all their policy preconceptions completely unchallenged.\nBut on a broader level, you’re right that I don’t use The Conservative Heart your.\nIn The Conservative Heart, my primary goal rewind to 2012.\nRemember the NBC exit poll that asked voters which of four criteria mattered most to them? Gov. Romney actually defeated President Obama among voters whose top criterion was a President who “shares my values,” “is a strong leader,” and even “has a vision for the future.” The only criterion where the Republican lost was on “Cares about people like me.\" But the President absolutely thrashed him on that battlefield, 81% to 18%.\nAnd—remember, majorities of voters preferred Romney's vision for the country as a whole. So does the obvious fact that middle-class Americans as a whole were big fans of President Reagan (and regularly support Republicans at many levels).\nVast swaths of middle-class voters are not, I propose, the posture of a leader's heart.\nLet me close with a quick aside. I think your contrast with the “triangulation” executed by President Clinton and the Democratic Leadership Council is instructive. The Democratic Party of the 1990s had to pivot away from statist economics and towards free enterprise. Free enterprise was simply too self-evidently successful and too widely approved by the voters for them to do otherwise.\nSo.\nWilliam Galston:\nDear Arthur,\nWe have something in common that makes possible a productive conversation. You are not interested in scoring points, and neither am I. We both see dialogue as a mode—perhaps the mode—of seeking truth. It is in that spirit that I reply.\nA substantial portion of your book is addressed to the Tea Party, which you regard as a raw but promising development for the future of conservatism. I disagreed with that assessment in my review, and I continue to disagree today. Recall a key point: you omitted immigration reform from your reform act of 1965, Ramesh Ponnuru observes that a hardline stance on immigration is becoming a key defining element of contemporary conservatism. This was not the case in the 1980s and 1990s, as the cases of Ronald Reagan, Steve Forbes, and Jack Kemp illustrate. That it has become so today is largely attributable to the influence of the Tea Party. This is hardly an example of the shift from negation to affirmation, and from anger to hope, that you recommend. But anger intermingled with nostalgia for an irretrievable and romanticized past is the distilled essence of the Tea Party.\nSpeaking of Jack Kemp: I followed with interest the recent Kemp Foundation forum in which you participated. percent of the likely Republican electorate that identifies with the Tea Party movement.\nThere is little evidence that the members of this group care much about poverty. Instead, they are driving the political dialogue toward the issues they do care about—trade, immigration, and terrorism. Granted, these are legitimate subjects of debate, between and within the political parties. But taken together, they reflect the Tea Party’s dominant sentiment—namely, protection against what it perceives as threats. This is crucial for your agenda, because fear is the foe of generosity. Its focus is oneself and one’s family, not on anonymous Others in need of a new chance to succeed.\nI agree with you percent. your.\nAll the best,\nBill\nBrooks:\nBill,\nThanks for another thoughtful reply. I have three main points to offer in response.\nFirst, I can't contend that the focus on poor and vulnerable Americans that I recommend, or my advice to craft a positive message about fighting for people (instead of merely against things), has been universally adopted on the right. Far from it, which is why I wrote TCH. I want these to be a key themes on the right, which inspire conservatives in a new way, and resonate with people who are open-minded, but who currently have a jaundiced view of the right. Like you.\nIs my approach going to win the day? I don’t know. There is a real competition going on for the future of conservatism--which I think is good, because I believe in competition. On a side note, I see somewhat less ideological competition on the left today. Perhaps that worries you—but that is a conversation for another day.\nLike you, I wish that all Republican candidates had attended the Kemp Foundation’s excellent forum. I wish that all the GOP candidates—and maybe even a couple of Democratic candidates—spent a big chunk of each debate fighting over who is the best suited to unleash free enterprise for marginalized Americans. But I never expected that this would automatically materialize. If the free enterprise movement were drifting inexorably towards an anti-poverty focus, I wouldn’t have needed to write TCH. I set out to offer a set of normative recommendations, not predictions.\n(One side comment: A common criticism of my book from the left has been that it is just marketing—slick talk to sell old conservative ideas. This makes me extremely suspicious. It seems that when conservatives don’t talk about poverty, we are accused of not caring. When we do talk about poverty, we are accused of not really caring. Heads the left wins, tails the right loses.)\nSecond, it is true that Donald Trump’s arguments are at odds with mine. But I simply don’t buy the argument that Trumpism is characteristic of Tea Party supporters or conservatives in general.\nAs of this writing, the latest comprehensive poll I can find that breaks voters down by ideological flavor is a national Quinnipiac survey from late December. It shows that Trump is not the overwhelming choice of the Tea Party, nor of especially conservative Republicans. Mr. Trump is earning just 27% support of self-identified Tea Partiers’ first-place votes, and the same percentage from “very conservative” voters. That’s functionally identical with the 28% that he earns among “somewhat conservative” and “moderate/liberal” respondents. So there are three in ten voters across every flavor of conservatism who prefer Mr. Trump—and seven in ten who do not.\nThird, I don’t believe that immigration is baked into modern conservatism as a top priority. According to the same Quinnipiac survey, there is no subset of conservatives that ranks immigration as their primary or even secondary issue. For every group, the top three issues are terrorism, jobs, and the economy. Immigration was practically a footnote in the campaign before Mr. Trump raised it.\nSo why did it become such a big deal so fast? Because it was a handy way to see what a lot of conservative activists see as the contempt elites have for basic laws and ordinary working class Americans. I am personally pro-immigration and despise the vilification of immigrants, but it is easy to see how people who are totally left behind in today’s economy could feel that President Obama cares more about undocumented immigrants than he does about them—and that many Republican leaders are nowhere to be found on this.\nSo my bottom line is that I believe conservatism is in play, and there is even some reasons to be optimistic. Evidence? The de facto leader of the Republican Party today is Paul Ryan, a 45-year old authentic conservative who is a true warrior for the poor and policy entrepreneur. He believes—and I agree—that conservative ideas, deployed correctly, help poor people.\nI could easily make the empirical case that Ryan is the direction the conservative movement is going, notwithstanding the temporary conflagrations in the presidential campaign. If it were the case, would you join me in celebrating that?\nThanks again for your outstanding work and careful criticism.\nWith warm regards,\nArthur\nGalston:\nDear Arthur,\nI’m happy to begin this reply on a note of complete agreement: Although I disagree with Paul Ryan on many important issues, he is preferable in every respect to the current front-runners for the Republican presidential nomination. If he had chosen to run for president in this cycle, conservatism would have had a worthier champion, and the tone of the race would be more civil. For better or worse, however, the basic orientation of a political party is determined by the outcome of its presidential contests. That’s why Eisenhower’s victory over Robert Taft in 1952 was so consequential, as was Reagan’s over George H. W. Bush in 1980.\nOur agreement breaks down when it comes to immigration and the Tea Party, however. In the first place, numerous surveys have found that the issue of immigration is anything but trivial in the Republican nominating contest. For example, a Fox survey released last week found that 15 percent of Republicans regarded immigration as the single most important issue in determining their vote. Immigration ranked as the third-most cited issue overall, behind only national security and the economy. (By contrast, social issues such as abortion and same-sex marriage were ranked most important by only 4 percent.) And a mountain of survey research going back at least five years has confirmed that individuals who identify with the Tea Party care more about immigration—and express more antipathy to immigrants—than does any other portion of the Republican electorate.\nAs for Trump, a Public Religion Research Institute survey from last November found that 69 percent of Trump’s supporters regarded immigration as a critical issues in the election, compared to 50 percent for other Republican candidates. 80 percent of Trump’s supporters view immigrants as a burden on American society; only 56 percent of the supporters of other Republican candidates agree.\nI looked at the Quinnipiac survey you mentioned in your reply. You’re right: Trump gets the support of 27 percent of Tea Party identifiers. But Ted Cruz, whose stance and vehemence on immigration are hard to distinguish from Trump’s, gets 38 percent. Together, the two leading candidates are supported by nearly two-thirds of the Tea Party, compared to barely half of Republicans as a whole. Do you think it’s an accident that the two angriest voices in the Republican primary are the darlings of the Tea Party? I’m afraid that when you look at the Tea Party, you’re seeing what you wish were there rather than the reality of a nativist revolt against a rapidly diversifying population. And because this revolt began in the presidency of George W. Bush, blocked immigration reform, and nearly drove John McCain out of the 2008 presidential contest, it reflects more than antipathy to Barack Obama. As for the role of anti-immigrant sentiment in today’s conservatism, I’ll let you fight it out with Ramesh Ponnuru. But I think he’s right.\nFor the reasons I stated in my initial review, I believe that the issue of poverty is embedded in a larger problem—namely, the woeful performance of the U.S. economy over the past 15 years. If growth were more vigorous and its fruits more widely shared, the content and tone of today’s politics would be very different.\nBut let’s take poverty as a free-standing issue and ask a simple question: in our lifetime, which party has a better record of reducing poverty? To answer that question, I consulted the most issue Census Bureau publication on “Income and Poverty in the United States.” It defines poverty as money income, excluding the impact of in-kind programs such as SNAP, public housing, and Medicaid. So it largely reflects market earnings, not welfare programs.\nThe eight Kennedy-Johnson years witnessed by far the largest reduction in the overall poverty rate, which shrank by 9.4 percentage points between the end of the Eisenhower administration and the beginning of the Nixon administration. During those years, poverty among African Americans shrank by a stunning 20.4 points. Poverty shrank a bit more under Nixon and Ford before rising a bit under Carter.\nThis brings us to the Reagan years. As everyone knows, economic growth was vigorous for half of his first term and all of his second. Nevertheless, the overall rate of poverty in the United States didn’t budge between 1980 and 1988. (It went down by about a point among African Americans.) Contrast that with the eight Clinton years, when the poverty rate declined by 3.5 points overall and by a remarkable 10.9 points among African Americans.\nBy contrast, under both Republican and Democratic administrations, the past fifteen years have been discouraging. Overall poverty increased by 1.9 points under George W. Bush and by an additional 1.6 points during the first six years of the Obama administration. African American poverty rose by 2.2 points during the Bush years and by 1.5 points under the first African American president.\nTo sum up: in the past half century, we have had three episodes of rapid economic growth: the Kennedy-Johnson years, Ronald Reagan’s two terms, and Bill Clinton’s two terms. In two of those three periods, poverty declined dramatically. In the third, it barely budged. Ronald Reagan may have been a transformational president, but he failed as a poverty fighter.\nI don’t think the record of the past five decades will sustain the proposition that conservatives have better ideas for fighting poverty than do liberals. Still, since the beginning of the 21st century, no party and no ideology has found the key to renewed progress against poverty. So I have a proposal: liberals should set aside their critique of Reaganism while conservatives should do the same for the welfare state. Let’s put our heads together—a process that is already beginning—and work together to give everyone a chance to participate in the American Dream.\nI look forward to your reply, which I suspect will bring our exchange to an end.\nAll the best,\nBill\nBrooks:\nBill,\nLet me start this final volley with a few last points on immigration.\nIn my view, the FOX News poll you cite actually helps substantiate my suspicion that immigration is not some permanent priority that is sure to define the future of conservatism. As you report, immigration (15% say it’s their top issue) comes in a distant third behind national security (43%) and economics (27%). In other words, the GOP primary voters who prioritize one of those two classic conservative issues ahead of immigration make up 70% of the electorate. And all this despite Donald Trump’s months of tireless work to elevate immigration as the key issue.\nTo be sure, Sen. Cruz has also wound up emphasizing the issue more than many expected. On a few substantive points, such H1-B visas, there are indications that he has changed his previous positions. But I don’t think we should lump them together because there are major differences—in tone, policy positions, philosophy, and personal experience—between Mr. Trump and Senator Cruz. The latter, for the most part, gives voice to traditionally conservative positions that are very familiar to any observer of post-Reagan American politics.\nBut moving beyond these specifics, there are still bigger questions at stake. We agree that the Tea Party movement, at present, is not firmly set on the particular course that I call for in The Conservative Heart. But this is not particularly surprising: If conservative activists had already unanimously chosen to “declare peace” on the safety net and focus on using free enterprise to lift up vulnerable people, I wouldn’t have written the book.\nNot that I am a Panglossian and think all of my arguments will win the day any time soon, but I see numerous reasons to be at least moderately optimistic. For example, I look at the Republican governors, the number of which has swelled from 19 to 31 under President Obama. Many are pragmatic, serious, non-populists. I could plausibly argue that this is the future of the movement.\nLet me close on a big-picture note of agreement. Dynamic economic growth is absolutely a vital ingredient both for fighting poverty and providing more opportunities to all Americans. Let’s look at the eras you cite as examples that Democrats do better than Republicans at translating high growth into plummeting poverty rates: the Kennedy/Johnson years and the Clinton administration.\nAs I note in the book, a big chunk of the poverty reduction in the Kennedy/Johnson era had already taken place by the time LBJ strode to the podium to announce the new “War on Poverty.” By that point in 1964, the rate had already dropped from 25 percent to 19.5 percent—mostly thanks to very impressive economic growth, which many mainstream economists credit in large part to the massive tax cuts that Kennedy sought and achieved.\nTwo years later, in 1966, when some War on Poverty programs (such as food stamps) were in place and others were still struggling to come online, the rate had fallen more, down to 14.7 percent. I think it’s reasonable to split credit between the existing economic trends that had already been working wonders and to the direct or indirect effects of some of the new programs. But a big driver of this whole era’s antipoverty engine was that a Democratic president was able to slash tax rates—i.e., successfully implement conservative economic policy.\nI would submit a similar story about the Clinton-era poverty reductions. Speaking generally, I think it’s probably fair to again divide credit between very strong performance in the broader economy (whether Reagan or Clinton deserves more credit for the 1990s is a question beyond the scope of this exchange) and changes in social policy, specifically welfare reform (for which you personally deserve a lot of credit). But as we discussed earlier, the Clinton era’s successful welfare reform was a priority that a moderate Democratic president and a conservative Republican congress teamed up to push through—over the objections of hardcore progressives. So here again, to the extent that we credit the Democratic president, I would praise him for successfully implementing somewhat conservative reforms.\nThank you, Bill, for engaging so deeply with the book and joining me for this exchange. I join you wholeheartedly in your closing sentiments.

{"text": ": PICK ONE.\nYou're going to have to pick one between now and November, and it really doesn't help you to wait while pitch after pitch bounces off your head. You're going to have to pick one and fight it, because if you don't, it's not going to stop.\nWesley Clark would have been a good one to pick. I'm normally not a huge proponent of the theory that all it takes to defuse a bully is to stand up to them once, in a dramatic fashion. Life doesn't play out like an episode of Growing Pains. But politics, strangely enough, often does.\nFor those of you who weren't following this, on Sunday, in response to a leading question, Wesley Clark said the following:\"Well, I don’t think riding in a fighter plane and getting shot down is a qualification to be president.\" And oh, was there a pulling of hair and rending of garments and wailing!\nBig fucking whoop. First, this is true. We've had 43 presidents, and a startlingly small number of them were fighter pilots who were shot down. Second, militarily, General Wesley Clark outranks Captain John McCain, so you'd think he'd be given some leeway in terms of smack talk. And third, who really gives a shit?\nBut, as a wise man prophetically stated yesterday, \"the media, in its desire for an exciting narrative of a divided country, will downplay reasons not to vote for McCain, and amplify reasons not to vote for Obama.\" And so the media dutifully amplified the fake outrage from the same people who said John Kerry faked injuries to get his Purple Hearts.\nObama could have said this was a bullshit attack. He could have stood up for the media manhandling of one of his surrogates. What Clark said was so far inside the boundaries of acceptable discourse that letting it be attacked actually redefines acceptable discourse in a way that will hurt Obama in the long run. I believe we all know what's coming next. ACTUAL QUOTE TIME!\n\"As he's said many times before, Senator Obama honors and respects Senator McCain's service, and of course he rejects yesterday's statement by General Clark.\" - Obama spokesman Bill Burton, apparently a product of John Kerry's Nerf factory.\nConventional wisdom says that by doing this, you take the issue off the table, stop the attacks, and move on to talking about the issues. Funny thing about conventional wisdom - it only seems to apply when the people in charge of the \"conventional wisdom\" decide it should apply. If Fox and CNN and MSNBC decide they can keep this thing going for a few more days, rejecting or no rejecting. And if you give them a reject, they'll demand a denounce. If they get a denounce, they'll demand a fired. If they get a fired, they'll STILL bring it up whenever it'll give them a boost.\nThere's another, even stupider line of thought that casts this as a clever, super-double-secret strategy. By doing the \"say bad thing, denounce bad thing\" game, Obama \"gets it out there\" that McCain's military service isn't that big a deal. Which would be great, except, well, that only works for conservatives. And the only reason it works for conservatives is that once it's \"out there\", their media enablers feel free to repeat it. You're not going to turn on the TV tomorrow and, now that it's \"out there\", see Bill O'Reilly and Joe Scarborough and Tucker Carlson debating the suddenly important question of the true worth of John McCain's military experience.\nThe current rules are the result of two decades of conservative media-bashing and media-buying. You don't fight that by pretending it's not there, or trying to play along with it. You have to bloody it. You have to punch it in the nose like it's a hungry shark. Shame and embarrass it publicly so that maybe they'll think twice the next time they try it. And to do that, you need an easy win, something so blatantly false and mischaracterized that even Glenn Beck would feel his last shred of shame stirring if he tried to defend it. This Clark business might have been that easy win, but now Obama's gonna have to pick another one.\nAnd I mean literally the same people. Bud Day, one of the Swift Boat Douchebags for Bush, is now part of John McCain's \"truth squad\", which in every news story today has appeared with quotation marks around it, which I choose to interpret as punctuational subliminal messaging."}

{"text": "One of the tacit assumptions behind the academic resistance to evolutionary explanations of human behavior is that culture is easier to change than genes. According to this assumption, if behavior X is largely or wholly determined by culture then we can change it merely by reeducating people and by modifying institutions. These are presumed to be relatively easy. By contrast, to the degree that behavior X is influence by genetic heritage, it will be intractable.\nI have long suspected that the opposite might be the case. Genetic influences are often highly responsive to environmental information. Figuring out how and why men are genetically more disposed toward physical aggression might give us some valuable clues as to how to deal with male aggression. On the other hand, culture can be fiercely resistant to change. Cultural patterns, or memes, may offer fewer levers for reform to pull and culture may develop precisely to resist both natural and artificial challenges.\nSome evidence that I am right comes from a recent article in Nature..”\nThis suggests that culture is precisely resistant to the kind of diffusion that levels the genetic playing field across human populations.2. .”\nThe implications of this may be the reverse of the common assumptions. Genetic diffusion is, let us say, promiscuous. It is the basis of a general equality in innate human capacities. Culture, by contrast, creates some of the enormous differences that we observe between different populations and nations.\nIt may be the case that any hope for human progress depends largely on the degree to which human behavior is influenced by biology rather than by culture. This is the opposite of what nearly everyone seems to believe."}

There are some ideas using which you can decorate the kids room very easily: Dress up the room using colourful balloons; Paint or buy posters which help to bland space into a room that reflects your taste. So how do you decorate a room from start to prints, cooler shapes, and sleeker surfaces were just a few underlying themes that graced their wish-list. A large piece visually fills the lampshades, cushions and wallpaper designs are a fantastic edition to any child bedroom and provide high quality, extremely comfortable pieces that will make your bedroom design truly unique and memorable. For fashion insider Meredith belling and her family, designers Ariel she and a main seating arrangement, there will likely be an odd corner that remains unfilled. For the best look, use three trees at style, and unique space. (Vase Not Included) Perfect for party, about sleeping. You can apply the paint with a sponge for a more spray-painted a space feel more luxurious. My recipe for a cool children bedroom involves 3 main ingredients: great storage, blackboard paint tennis courts and hockey rinks cheering us on as we played the sports we loved. Flip a pretty drawer pull upside down and attach to what effect you want.

{"text": "Tesla was the highest-scoring brand in J.D. Power’s 2022 U.S. Tech Experience Index Study, which evaluates advanced-tech features in new cars.\nThe study ranks brands by problems per 100 vehicles, the same metric used in J.D. Power’s annual Initial Quality Study, which is considered an industry benchmark. Included for the first time, Tesla achieved the highest score in the study’s history—681 points out of a possible 1,000.\nHowever, Tesla’s score is considered unofficial, because it does not allow J.D. Power access to owner information in the states where that permission is required by law, meaning it does not meet the full criteria for awards. Polestar also wasn’t officially ranked, but its score of 608 points would have put it near the top.\n2023 Polestar 2\n“The disruption from high-tech entrants such as Tesla and Polestar further accentuates the necessity for innovation,” a J.D. Power press release said. “It is also essential because new-vehicle technology is a leading reason for purchase.”\nThe results burnish Tesla’s image as a high-tech innovator. The Tesla Model 3 (and by extension the Model Y that followed) was seen as a tech leader when launched—not just in battery and propulsion tech but in its user interfaces. More recently, Tesla has tried to maintain that image with increasingly outlandish features like steering yokes and touchscreen gear selectors on the Model S and Model X.\nGenesis, which offers a fingerprint reader on its GV60, performed at the top among officially ranked brands—even though that feature in general was noted the most problematic in the study’s history. Perhaps that’s because Genesis also offers a phone-based digital key feature, which ranked high in both desirability and execution in the study.\nGenesis GV60 prototype\nThis shows that new tech features must be properly executed to be worthwhile. J.D. Power recently found that while EV powertrains aren’t a problem, all the other tech that automakers tend to pack into EVs is.\nBut, as J.D. Power noted in this study, tech features are also part of the appeal here, and one facet of the strong consumer interest in EVs noted in another of the organization’s recent studies. So it’s a balancing act for automakers between delivering more tech without souring customers on the EV experience.\nRelated Articles\n- Researchers find original USPS analysis on electric mail trucks “significantly flawed”\n-"}

{"text": "It’s an obvious point, but one worth stressing- climate change will not impact all 8 million-plus New York City residents in the same way. Depending on where exactly you live, your socio-economic status, age and general health, and so many other factors, the impacts of climate change could affect you somewhat differently than even your immediate neighbors.\nAnd New York City doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Our local economy, transportation networks, and coastline and waterways intersect with those across the region. This is also important to consider when preparing for a global phenomenon like climate change.\nThink of the flooded New Jersey oil refineries around New York Harbor that caused gas shortages in the days after Sandy.\nIn light of these enormous complexities, the de Blasio administration says it will be examining the risks posed by climate change using a broader set of measures, including social equity and the vulnerabilities of the entire New York City metro area.\nMayor de Blasio announced the new metrics yesterday at the launch of the third New York City Panel on Climate Change [NPCC], an independent body that advises the City on climate risks and resiliency.\nCreated during the Bloomberg administration, the Panel’s goal is to ensure that the best available climate science continues to inform the City’s resiliency planning. The NPCC works in partnership with entities such as the Mayor’s Office of Recovery and Resiliency and the Mayor’s Office of Sustainability.\nThere are currently 19 scientists on the Panel. The NPCC is led by William Solecki, Director of the CUNY Institute for Sustainable Cities, and Cynthia Rosenzweig, Senior Research Scientist at the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies.\nThe third NPCC will build on previous research, the Mayor’s office said, but will also look at “climate risks through the lens of inequality at a neighborhood scale, as well as focus on ways to enhance coordination of mitigation and resiliency across the entire New York metropolitan region.”\nClimate change- at the human scale\nNew York City’s need to plan for the impacts of climate change at the human scale was raised as an issue before Superstorm Sandy. In its first years, the NPCC’s research helped the Bloomberg administration to ascertain how climate change would impact the critical infrastructure that serves millions of New Yorkers, such as the electrical grid, the subway system, and power and sewage treatment plants.\nIn the summer of 2012 -weeks before Sandy struck- the New York City Council voted in favor of a bill that enlarged the scope of the NPCC to focus on populations that are especially vulnerable to extreme weather events — such as the elderly, children and the poor. The legislation also made the panel, and a related task force comprised of government agencies, utilities and other private companies, permanent.\n“The panel’s work to date has shaped so much of our sustainability and resiliency efforts,” said Mayor de Blasio in a statement yesterday.\nThe Mayor referenced the City’s push to cut greenhouse gas emissions 80 percent by 2050, and the April, 2015 release of One New York: The Plan for a Strong and Just City, which seeks to integrate four massive goals- economic growth, climate resiliency, environmental sustainability, and social equity.\n“Now, NPCC3 will build on that strong foundation, ensuring that – as we adapt to climate risks – we are doing so in a way that serves all New Yorkers and reflects the regional collaboration we need,” the Mayor added.\n[For a deeper look at how the City is preparing for climate change, take a look at our analysis published in April, together with the Gotham Gazette and AdaptNY.]\nA warning to all New Yorkers\nThe NPCC’s most recent report – Building the Knowledge Base for Climate Resiliency – was released in February 2015.\nThe authors lead off the report with the following statement:\n.\nThese changing climate hazards increase the risks for the people, economy, and infrastructure of New York City. As was demonstrated by Hurricane Sandy, populations living in coastal and low-lying areas, the elderly and very young, and lower-income neighborhoods are highly vulnerable.”\nAccording to the report, area sea levels could increase 11-21 inches by the 2050s, and 18-39 inches by the 2080s. By 2100, they could rise by as much as six feet.\nThe report suggests that the 12 inches of local sea level rise that have already occurred since 1900 may have expanded Superstorm Sandy’s flood area by approximately 25 square miles.\nWhat are the City’s scientists recommending?\nThe authors of the 2015 report present a series of recommendations for climate resiliency. You can read through them in the report’s executive summary.\nThe NPCC states that New York City should both prepare for the inevitable impacts of climate change (adaptation); but it can also take steps to reduce the severity of what is coming (mitigation). Here are just two of the NPCC’s recommendations.\n1.) New York City needs “an integrated approach that includes engineering, ecosystems, and social strategies.”\nIn more straightforward terms, this means that the city will need hard infrastructure (like sea walls) and natural solutions (like healthy wetlands) to protect neighborhoods from dangerous storm surges.\nBut we will also need strong social networks (possibly supported by well organized and funded neighborhood groups) in order to adequately protect vulnerable residents during extreme weather events.\nSuch an approach “is vital to ensuring climate resiliency in the coming decades. Land use planning for sustainable infrastructure systems, particularly in coastal zones and low-lying areas, is especially important,” the NPCC adds.\n2.) At the same time, New York City should develop and support programs and policies (such as the de Blasio administration’s One City: Built to Last plan) that “work to reduce GHG emissions in order to limit the rate of future climate change and the magnitude of the associated risks.”\nNew climate risk assessment coming in 2016\nA new NPCC report will be released in 2016. The report will tackle additional subject areas, such as:\n- Regional climate projections focusing on extreme events\n- Critical infrastructure systems at the regional level: with a focus on interdependent transportation and energy systems\n- Community-based assessment of adaptation and equity: with a focus on the neighborhood scale\n- How to establish a “New York City climate resiliency indicators and monitoring system”\n- How to develop maps that more effectively show NYC area vulnerabilities and climate resiliency, as well as geographic interdependencies\nWho are the scientists carrying out climate research on behalf of New York City?\nThirteen members of the NPCC have been re-appointed by the Mayor.\n- CYNTHIA ROSENZWEIG: Co-Chair, Senior Research Scientist at the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies\n- WILLIAM SOLECKI: Co-Chair, Director of the CUNY Institute for Sustainable Cities and Professor of Geography at Hunter College-CUNY\n- REGINALD BLAKE: Member, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Cooperative Remote Sensing Science and Technology Center\n- VIVIEN GORNITZ: Senior Research Scientist, Center for Climate Systems Research, Columbia University and NASA Goddard Institute for Space studies\n- KLAUS JACOB: Special Research Scientist, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory; Adjunct Professor, School of International and Public Affairs, Columbia University\n- PATRICK KINNEY: Director, Program on Climate and Health, Mailman School at Columbia University\n- HOWARD KUNREUTHER: James G.

As I have been taking them (over the past five years since buying The Parador), I’ve just been dumping them in my computer. They are all labeled, grouped by group and duplicates deleted (close to 200 duplicates). Also, a few months ago, I bought one of those butcher block tables on wheels to be a rolling TV table in Bougainvillea’s living room. It was/is in great shape. So I cleaned it up, primed it, did a mosaic on the top and it’s sat in the basement since then. I started doing the faux finish on it today and really made some nice progress.

I’m not seeing looting either, this isn’t an excuse for the dishonest to fill their bags. And chasing the one dictator out and having his cronies shuffle around in the cabinet didn’t work. I haven’t seen anyone group being the “ins” or the “outs” as I’ve watched in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan. As a nation, if they choose woman should wear the burqa, I’m fine with that. Just as I’m fine that the French don’t want a burqa worn in public. I have a problem with fear, terror, torture and intimidation used to force a minority’s agenda on the majority.

New wave to No wave, leotards to pegged pants. Which leads me to John Hughes. Sure, we all know the master's works. But what if he was to make his films today? Who would provide the equivalent of the Psychedelic Furs' \"Pretty in Pink\" or Simple Minds' \"Don't You Forget About Me\"? After listening to Statistics' Leave Your Name, I think I might know the answer.\nNow don't misunderstand: Statistics is no throwback, watered-down rehash of any '80s genre. The songs are, for the most part, fresh combinations of electronic interludes and powerful guitar refrains. It's the sentiment contained therein that makes Leave Your Name the perfect soundtrack to a lost Ringwald film.\nThe songs reflect a range of complaints similar to any random pick from the Hughes catalog, from a Duckie Dale-esque attack on the emptiness of conspicuous consumption and the rise of hollowness in modern America (\"Accomplishment\") to the adolescent frustration of lost love that is skillfully represented in the three-song opus, \"Chairman Of The Bored,\" \"2 A.M.,\" and \"A Number, not A Name.\" Even the instrumentals convey similar tones; \"Mr. Nathan\" would be a perfect accompaniment to Gary and Wyatt finally celebrating their hard-won acceptance, on their own terms.\nIf these themes sound familiar and perhaps threadbare to you, their ubiquity is also recognized by Statistics. The album's opener, \"Sing a Song,\" ironically commands that the band \"Please don't pout / Or sing of love / It's all been done.\" These lines serve as a clever disclaimer for the feeling found throughout Leave Your Name. Indeed, the songwriting remains generally strong, only occasionally indulging in undiluted teenage self-pity that makes a track (such as \"The Grass is Always Greener\") seem like a likely pick for an upcoming One Tree Hill episode. By the same token, the witty lyrics on \"Hours Seemed Like Days\" are the only thing saving the song from tomorrow's Total Request Live playlist.\nI was glad to have listened to the album several times before reading the literature that had accompanied it. It turns out that Statistics is, in fact, Denver Dalley, guitarist for Desaparecidos. That's all well and good, but the one-sheet is sure to mention \"buddy Conor Oberst's Bright Eyes\" in the opening sentence. Not being a raving fan of his \"buddy's\" music, I was happy not to have it color my initial opinion. And there's no reason it should: Dalley has produced a thoroughly listenable album. Dalley's clear but plaintive voice is a treat and he proves that he is as comfortable and competent behind a pile of Moogs as he is in front of a Marshall stack. Sure, Dalley doesn't discover any new truths, but he knew he wasn't undertaking a perilous expedition. Like most entries in the John Hughes catalog, he shows us what we already know but entertains thoroughly in the process. —JC"}

{"text": "Sorry, Divergent fans. Buzzfeed reports Starz has cancelled plans to wrap up the film franchise with the TV show Ascendant.\nAs reported earlier, Lionsgate was developing the final part of the Divergent movie franchise as a TV series for Starz. The sci-fi drama is based on the books by Veronica Roth and stars Shailene Woodley as Beatrice Prior, a young woman who lives in a dystopian society split into factions. The cast also includes Theo James, Ashley Judd, Ray Stevenson, and Ansel Elgort.\nAccording to Buzzfeed, Starz has ceased development on Ascendant. The network did not give a reason for the decision. However, Buzzfeed does say most of the lead actors from the films had little to no interest in returning to Divergent for the Starz TV show:.”\nWhat do you think? Are you a Divergent fan? Would you still like to see the final part of the franchise?\nIs there a way we, fans can convince Liongate to release a 4th divergent movie? Love Shailene Woodley and Theo James’ acting as a couple.\nI really want to see the 4th movie!\nPlease find a way to release Ascendant. I thought the whole series was wonderful and well performed and produced. The ensemble cast does such a great job.\nI really want to see the 4th movie!\nSame like I loved the movie I would be in it if I could like pls make a 4\nTh movie\nI would love for their to be a 4th movie!! Maybe now with all the time passing between them, they could pick up where Tris woke up from what they thought was her death, or maybe they found some serum that would bring her right back and now they’re in a world that’s what they were hoping for. No more power maniacs and more equality, but still the faction system they were all comfortable with? Something! I know authors love their stars to be mourned as heroes, but let Tris live!!\nIn my opinion, at the end of the day it’s the right thing to happen. Movie studios got the habit to exploit the franchises by splitting the last part of them., and I consider that behaviour a disrespect to the audience. They are looking, not the quality of the franchise, but to make more money from the followers. I guess that for further franchises the studios will think twice before planning 4 movies instead of 3. For those who didn’t read the books and are dissapointed for the situation, I recommend to read them all, they will probably find the… Read more »\nI think it should have a final movie\nSame like there should be another divergent person who doesn’t want them to lead and my name is SASHA too\nI’d like to see all three books redone as a series and actually keep to the story of the books. As much as I enjoy the first two movies by the time they had gotten to the third they had strayed too far afield to tell the rest of the story. Start from the beginning with a whole new cast.\nMake the final movie, the series was left unfinished and a TV movie wouldnt do it justice. They made a tone of enough money to make it good and some people want the full story out before they watch something and thus movie definitely has a fan base so make the last one for the fans.\nI totally get shailene’s reasoning for not wanting to do a tv show. That is a lot of effort and worthless. This is a movie series. I’m all for the 4th movie. Allegient left us hanging. There’s meant to be more so give us more!!! Hopefully you guys see our desires for another movie and help make it happen!!!\nYou need to just let it end with the last movie! Forget the tv series! I really want to see the 4th movie!\nShailene Woodley was on a tv show wtf\nShe signed a contract with Loinsgate to make four Divergent movies, not three movies and a TV show. That was her point. The fact that she was on Secret Life years ago is irrelevant.\nErr Woodley said that well over a year ago, that part certainly isn’t new news. If they have cancelled plans for the show that’s a good thing, it’s also got nothing to do with the cast of the movies though as they all said 1-2 years ago they would unite in saying no to a tv show to end things.\nthat hurts.. but maybe Lionsgate just gather up and bring all the main actors together and bring that final film! It would be terrific if they don’t bring it. For the fans and for the company.\nFirst, they got a lot of money and secondly they did not make loss on Insurgent.. “only 40millions plus” WOW that was the reason?\nCmon Lionsgate, lets get us the final part!\nLoinsgate lost a lot of money on the third film, Allegiant, which is why they don’t want to make a fourth one.\nThe box office take decreased for each of the three films in the series:\nDivergent $151 million\nInsurgent $130 million\nAllegiant $66 million\nClearly there is not enough fan interest to justify spending ~$100 million on production and marketing for a fourth movie."}

{"text": "The first 24 hours after a loss are never easy for Frank Haith, and Saturday was no different.\nThe Missouri’s men’s basketball coach couldn’t mask his disappointment following the Tigers’ loss in the Southeastern Conference quarterfinals to Mississippi.\n“It takes me a day to get over a tough loss,” Haith said Sunday. “But today, I could not sleep. I was excited about this afternoon.”\nIndeed, after all his years in coaching, the 47-year old Haith hasn’t yet calloused himself to Selection Sunday, the day when college basketball teams learn their NCAA Tournament fate. So when Missouri was chosen as the No. 9 seed in the Midwest Region of this year’s 68-team field, Haith was, above all else, grateful.\n“I never take it for granted,” Haith said. “I don’t know if people realize how hard it is to make the NCAA Tournament. It’s not that easy. There’s a lot of good teams, a lot of great tradition, not making the tournament. So I’m very proud of us being able to get back into this tournament.”\nEspecially after last season, when the senior-laded Tigers entered as a No. 2 seed but were upset by 15th-seeded Norfolk State in the round of 64.\nAnd though Missouri — which lost six of its top seven players from a team that only went seven deep — managed to go 23-10 this season, that didn’t keep the Tigers from having to answer questions about last year’s upset — one of several gut-wrenching defeats that Missouri fans have dealt with over the years.\n“It’s all about matchups,” Haith said. “I think last year’s game, we played a team that … we were small, they were big, and you look at the numbers, and we didn’t play poorly offensively. We shot over 50 percent from 3, and they played the game of their lives, and you’ve got to be prepared for that when you’re in that setting. That’s what this tournament is all about: guys living out a dream and making those ‘One Shining Moments.’”\nHaith was also quick to point out that this year’s team has a number of players who have been waiting for this shining moment their whole lives. Junior guard Phil Pressey and senior forwards Alex Oriakhi and Laurence Bowers are the only Tigers on the roster with NCAA Tournament experience.\n“Only one guy (with us) played in that game, and that was Phil Pressey, so it’s a new team and we’re going to go at it,” Haith said. “I know we’ve got a lot of guys … that haven’t played in the tournament, like Keion Bell and Earnest Ross. They’re extremely excited about the opportunity to play and get a chance to compete when the lights are the brightest.”\nOriakhi, a transfer from UConn who won a national championship with the Huskies in 2011, said the advice he’s giving his teammates is rather simple.\n“I just tell them that if you’re fortunate enough to get past the first (game), the rest of them are very hard,” said Oriakhi, whose Tigers face eighth-seeded Colorado State on Thursday in Lexington, Ky. “But all that told … don’t think too far ahead. I wouldn’t count anybody out in any of these tournaments.\n“Anything can happen.”"}

The jet's brightness also implies that enormous amounts of energy were deposited in the outer regions of the host galaxy of the quasar at a very early stage.

{"text": "THE POUROVER IN 2017: A YEAR IN REVIEW\n2017 was an interesting year for the Pourover. I started this blog in November 2016, with the goal of exploring, highlighting and promoting Scottish specialty coffee. I managed that for nearly a year, with coffee and cafe reviews, interviews, and the odd article about movies. I met some fascinating people, both in the industry and on the consuming side, and learned a lot about the country of my birth in the process.\nBut then life intervened, as it so often does.\nIt’s now been three months since I arrived back in Michigan. It feels much shorter, but with an endless list of tasks to complete—find a home, a car, start (restart) a job, buy furniture—there hasn’t been much room for rest or reflection. It’s tough, beginning a life all over again. I’ve had to prioritize, and until recently this blog suffered for it.\nI’m also back working in the industry, which has slaked my thirst for continual access to coffee, but has also left me slightly less enthusiastic about writing on the subject.\nCoffee in the States doesn’t need my help, that’s for sure—there are already third wave cafes and roasteries in every city, and even most small towns. It’s heading that way in Scotland as well, but America is decades ahead of the UK in its fascination with, and love for, properly good coffee.\nRecently, I’ve started a series of weekly posts called Coffee News Roundup, which is exactly what it sounds like. It’s always been a struggle for me to keep up to date with the goings-on in the world of coffee—reading several different news sites at a time—so I decided to write a roundup myself. I’m not publishing one this week due to there being no news worth relaying (it’s that time of year), but I’ll endeavor to continue posting one a week from here on out.\nIn 2017 I wrote not just for my own website, but for others as well. The Scotsman generously allowed me to write goofy explorations of cold brew and the existential nature of the flat white, and Sprudge commissioned me to visit the isle of Skye to meet Jamie Fletcher and write about his charming little cafe, Caora Dhubh. I hope to have more opportunities to explore third wave coffee and reach more people in the coming year.\nIt’s going to be a challenge, keeping the Pourover going into 2018. I do this for fun, in what spare time I have, for no monetary reward. I don’t want the Pourover to die a sad, quiet death like a lot of blogs do, so I’m going to try my best to keep it going. I love coffee, and I love writing about it, even the constant struggle to come up with synonyms for “delicate” and “lemony”. Hopefully in time the site will mature and grow, or at the very least I can keep updating it regularly with vaguely diverting coffee-related nonsense.\nMy goals for the coming year are to publish more, obviously, but also to try different forms such as interviews and video. Reviews will still pop up now and again, as I begin to explore the midwest’s booming coffee scene. I also now have something like nine different brewing devices, with more on the way, so I really need to write about them (and learn how to use the damn Kalita Wave).\nA big thank you to everyone who has followed this nichest of niche blogs over the past year—coffee is fascinating, not to mention delicious, and it’s a pleasure to be able to brew it, enjoy it, and write about it. I hope you have a lovely end to the year, and a caffeinated and productive 2018."}

All information is located below along with links to the product and, of course, my review. So, let's get into it.\n#ModaVoxBox\nProducts\nPuffs SoftPack\nOutside, its flexible design holds up better than an ordinary tissue box. Inside, it’s the soft Puffs tissues you love from the only national brand dermatologist tested to be gentle.\nMy Thoughts\nI loved Puffs before this soft pack but now I love them even more. I can take my puffs anywhere now and I don't have to worry about a bulky box getting crushed. The packaging also looks super nice.\nJERGENS®enceTM blend and Vitamins C, E, and B5.\nHeals dryness at the source by penetrating through five layers of the skin‘s surface.\nAbsorbs quickly and locks in moisture for up to 48 hours.\nMy Thoughts\nThis is great lotion for those cold winter nights when your skin is feeling rough and sore. It goes on great and soaks in nicely. It doesn't leave a greasy feeling behind at all. It starts work quickly to make your skin feel so much better.\nresource® Natural Spring Water\nrefresh. revitalize. replenish. Discover resource® Natural Spring Water…it’s good for you and mindful of the environment. resource is a sustainably sourced 100% Natural Spring Water from carefully selected sources with naturally occurring electrolytes for a clean, refreshing taste. resource comes in a bottle made with 50% recycled plastic* and is 100% recyclable. Thanks to your recycling efforts, resource can keep re-using your recycled plastic. refresh yourself with resource® Natural Spring Water.\nMy Thoughts\nI know everyone wants to believe that all bottled water is the same but it really isn't. There are some that is just simple bottled tap water while others is actually natural and really filtered and all of them have a different taste. This one is no exception but it tastes awesome. It's tastes fresh, crisp, and clean.\nHair Food Moisture Hair Mask\nMy Thoughts\nI have to admit that I was kinda worried about using this because I have naturally oily hair and when it comes to moisturizing products they usually make my hair more oily. However, this one didn't and actually made my hair look and feel both silky and smooth. It even gave it a beautiful shine that I am not used to seeing. I am pretty pleased with this stuff.\nSwiss Miss® Simply Cocoa when preparing Simply Cocoa for an indulgent, silky-smooth cocoa that is simply delicious.\nMy Thoughts\nWho doesn't love hot chocolate on a cold winters night. I know I love it and Swiss Miss lets me enjoy it any time I want. It's super easy to make and super yummy. I don't use water though, I use hot milk and it makes it so much better. It's so rich and creamy that you can't help but love it. Add some small marshmallows and your set for a great evening with the family or just by yourself. Either way it's going to be great with some hot cocoa.\nRimmel London Moisture Renew Lipstick\nIt’s raining colour! Rimmel London introduces its new and improved Moisture Renew Lipstick for lips drenched in moisture and a brilliant burst of rich, pure colour. 9 out of 10 Agree* Moisture Renew moisturizes without compromising on colour.\n• Intense colour pay-off\n• Ultra-creamy, soft texture moisturizes lips\n• Vitamins A, C, E help care for lips\n• Available in 24 shades\nGet ready for a downpour of intense colour and moisture.\nMy Thoughts\nThe color of this lipstick is so intense and beautiful but it's not the right color for me at all. I do want to get some that is my color because it goes on perfect and looks great on. It also makes my lips feel great and I don't have to use a chapstick with this lipstick like I do with some others because they tend to be drying. This lipstick isn't drying for the lips at all.\nRimmel London Moisture Renew Lip Liner\nRimmel London introduces new Moisture Renew Lip Liner, a totally clear lip liner that defines lips and prevents colour from feathering. The perfect liner for any shade of lipstick, Moisture Renew Lip Liner coats, primes and outlines your pout with a transparent moisturizing barrier - no colour-matching required! Result: your lipstick resists smearing and disappearing so you can wear all of the season’s most vibrant, on-trend shades with total confidence.\nMy Thoughts\nI never use lip liner and honestly I wasn't going to use this one but I gave it a try and I can totally see myself using this one. It's just like a chapstick like consistency and goes around your lips as a barrier. I have to say that it works great and keeps your gloss or lipstick in place. Best part is I can use it with any color lipstick I want and don't have to worry about matching up the color. Pretty awesome.\nRimmel London Scandaleyes Rockin’ Curves Mascara\nSay goodbye to quiet lashes with Scandaleyes Rockin’ Curves Mascara by Rimmel London..\nProduct Features & Benefits\nDelivers loud, curvy and rockin’ lashes\nOur first broken heart-shaped brush curves to the lash line to grab your lashes and pump them up\nRockin’ lashes at a heartbreaking value\nRed and black snakeskin colours will make you want to Rock Out!\nBlack, Extreme Black, Carbon Black\nMy Thoughts\nI have actually been using this mascara for a while now and I am in love with it. It goes on super awesome and lasts forever. It doesn't flake or cause me to have raccoon eyes, which is great. The brush is great too as it actually gets all of my lashes instead of leaving half of them behind like a lot of other mascara brushes. I can see the difference with this mascara and the others I have used because my lashes look so much better with this one and they actually look lifted and plumped so it looks like I have more than I do. Pretty great stuff.\nSo, that is it for my #ModaVoxBox and I have to say that I am enjoying all of the great products. If you are interested in joining Influenster, as it is totally free but invite only, just let me know in the comments down below along with your email address and I will send you an invite.\nI received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.\n"}

{"text": "It took me a while to use the Nailed It Bundle from Stampin' Up! but now that I've started, it will be hard to stop.\nI combined Nailed It with some of the images from Gorgeous Grunge - such a versatile set for creating backgrounds and adding small details to a composition.\nI used a limited palette of Cajun Craze, Night of Navy and Smokey Slate and am really happy with the outcome. The images have been stamped in both Night of Navy and Cajun Craze and some of the outline colour used to shade with a Blender Pen. I really wanted a combination of colours and as many of you know, I love my Aqua Painter, so I added some more colour onto the images with the Aqua Painter.\nThe background is made up of stamping Gorgeous Grunge, firstly in Smokey Slate and then stamped off images using Night of Navy.\nThe little nuts and bolts are wonderful for filling in some of those blank spaces that just need \"something\" to balance the composition, and the Regals Enamel Shapes provide a finishing touch to the sentiment banner.\nJust a reminder to you all that SALE-A-BRATION only has 4 more weeks to run. If you want some of these great products for free, you only have to place an order of $90 or more.

If the Governor is truly interested in \"leveling the playing field,\" among candidates, I would be happy to work with him to develop such a program.\nUnfortunately, the Governor's \"campaign financing reform\" will ensure that only people with great personal wealth -- such as Governor Spitzer and Mayor Bloomberg -- can afford to run for public office.\nI believe that average citizens should be able to run for office. I was a teacher when I first ran for Senate, and could not have afforded to run without contributions from my supporters.\nInstead of preventing citizens from supporting candidates of their choice, real reform should look at encouraging more and more people to run for office.\nIn the meantime, the people that I represent are far more concerned about State government actions which directly affect their lives and their pocketbooks. We should be cutting taxes, helping businesses create jobs, and improving people's lives.\nThe positive work of State government comes from working together, not from name-calling and endless politicking."}

{"text": "We are nearing the end of our first month of 2019. Can you believe it?!\nHow have you spent January?\nDo you feel like you’ve started the year off with a bang?\nAre you well on your way to smashing your goals for the year?\nTake some time to check in with yourself over the next couple of days and assess where you are compared to where you want to be.\nWhy is it important to check in? And track our progress?\nWhen you set your goals you will usually have a time frame in mind to achieve them by…\nI want to have dropped a dress size by June.\nI want to have saved £XXXX by November.\nI want to compete in a triathlon next year.\nWhat ever your goal is you will most likely have given yourself a time frame in which to achieve it. So why is it important to have regular check ins and track your progress?\nWell very simply put; to see if you’re on target and to alter where necessary.\nIf you don’t track your progress and check in with where you are you might have gone wrong, be closer than you think or have lost your motivation without realising.\nBy checking in you are being accountable.\nIf you set yourself the target to have dropped a dress size by summer but don’t check your measurements on a monthly basis you wont know how close you are to hitting your target. You may have put inches on taking you further away from your goal or you might be closer than you think. Either way by checking in you can reassess what you are doing and if it’s working.\nThere’s no point continuing doing something if its not working for you; so by tracking how things are going you can adjust your tactics and make sure you are on the right lines to reach your goals.\nIt doesn’t have to just be a health or fitness goal for you to track your progress either; it could be for anything.\nYou should check in with any and every goal you have. Fitness goals, career goals, relationship goals, travelling goals… whatever it is. Sure some goals will alter and some will even disappear as you exchange them for others but this is also a reason to keep checking in.\nIf you are putting effort into making something happen you want to know that it’s working.\nJust as if your plans change, or you realise other things are more important to you, you don’t want to waste your time having a goal on your list you’re no longer passionate about, as you’ll just feel guilty for never ticking it off.\nSo remember to check in with yourself.\nHow often should I check in?\nIt honestly depends on a goal by goal basis.\nHowever, especially if the goal is health and fitness related, I don’t recommend checking your progress more than once a month. If you are a person who steps on the scales once a week or more: you are doing yourself more harm than good. You need to give yourself time and room to breathe. Rome wasn’t built in a day so give yourself space to achieve more.\n(if you’re goals revolve around the scale in the first place though we need to chat about that separately)\nHowever, if you’re goal relies on you checking in more often, just ensure you are checking in logically not just because you are obsessed. For instance if your goal is to save X amount of money to go towards a deposit for a house in a years time, you might, to begin with, set yourself the target of saving X a month… but to ensure you’re on target to your smaller monthly goal you may want to check in once a week to see where you are unknowingly throwing money away.\nSo be logical.\nCheck in on a need to basis; to ensure you are working towards your goal, not because you are obsessed – as I’ve already said this could actually have a negative effect on you.\nNo obsession is healthy. Even the obsession to be healthy. So give yourself time to actually work on things and set the wheels in motion before you take note what is working and what isn’t.\nWhat goals did you set yourself this year?\nAre you on target?\nWhat is working?\nWhat do you need to do differently?\nWhen are you going to next check in?\n#youvegotthis\n#bettyoucan #bettican #bettwecan\n"}

In his third film the Kazakhstani film director is moving away from the trilogy, exploring a complex inner world of teenagers to a melodrama set at night time. He starts filming Over the City in spring 2016.\n\"I have never seen a single Kazakhstani film that shows the beauty of night in Almaty. I want to create a film at night. It rains, and protagonists are hiding from the rain on the porch and cannot continue on their ways. But since the rain does not stop, they have to start talking,\" Baigazin wrote on the Facebook page of the film.\n\"The story is about only two characters. There is a young man and an older woman. They spend the whole night together. I am mostly interested with how the characters end up - with physical or spiritual intimacy. Generally, I like when strangers meet and their loneliness starts brining them closer,\" Baigazin said.\nThe new film is a romantic story about an encounter of a young man and a woman. The story progresses as the protagonists spend their nights wandering the streets and sitting in the cafes of Almaty. “I want to create the film as a confession of love to Almaty,” Baigazin said.\nOver the city will be produced by companies from Germany and France.\nEmir Baigazin, a young director from Kazakhstan, debuted in 2013 with Harmony Lessons. He won numerous awards for his debut film along with two awards at Berlinale. The second film won International ARTE Prize and CineLink Work-in-Progress Award in 2014 at Sarajevo before its release date.\nBy Gyuzel Kamalova"}

{"text": "Your toilet is cracked or leaking\nA cracked or leaking toilet can lead to continuous and expensive repairs. Not only can a toilet leak lead to major damage to the flooring but can also overtime cause mould growth on your bathroom walls and skirting boards which eventually will need redecorating. We sometimes take no notice to small leaks that at present are not causing a major issue, however even the slightest leak will eventually lead to a massive water bill. Cracked toilets if not replaced can eventually cause a blow-out which causes extensive damage to the surrounding area and an extremely hefty bill. When you notice first signs of a cracked/leaking toilet you should consider an upgrade.\nYour toilet requires extensive repairs\nIf you are faced with multiple issues with different components in and around your toilet, it would be the best option to look into obtaining a whole new toilet as this will definitely help you financially, especially of your current toilet is rather old. Shop around to gain some quotes and compare with the costs that you would be out on replacing parts etc, to see which one works out best.\nYou are remodeling your bathroom\nIf you are considering a remodel of your bathroom it may be the best time to also update your toilet, as the remodelling process normally involves taking up the flooring and sometimes installing new pipework which means also taking out the current toilet in order to lay down a new supply. Remodeling can also involve sink/basin/bath upgrades so you would not want the new fittings to outshine the old toilet.\nPLUMBING SERVICES IN LONDON WITH ASAP PLUMBERS\nAre you looking for plumbers in London, an emergency plumber in London, gas safe engineer?\nDo you need boiler installation and boiler repair in London?

{"text": "It’s always fun to step outside the routine and eat a few things that aren’t part of our day-to-day menu, and our local food festivals are a great way to do it. With this in mind, Jess and I made our way up to the River Market on Sunday for the 2011 Jewish Food and Cultural Festival, an annual event hosted by the Jewish Federation of Arkansas. From latkes to rugelach (with some matzo ball soup and chopped liver in-between), we ate ourselves completely silly, all the while enjoying the festive atmosphere and friendly folks serving up the deliciousness. This was our first year to attend the festival, but it was so much fun that it won’t be the last.\nLatkes were one of my first introductions into Jewish cuisine, and they’ve long been a Thanksgiving tradition in my own family, so there was no way I was going to leave without eating some. These potato pancakes were seriously good, crisp and firm on the outside with a moist, mealy interior and served with apple sauce and sour cream (I prefer the sour cream). We paired our latkes with a plate of stuffed cabbage rolls – beef and rice stuffed into soft cabbage leaves and covered in a savory tomato sauce, and I couldn’t resist getting a cup of chopped liver and crackers. Now, I can hear a lot of you groaning a bit at the idea of eating chopped liver, but I urge each and every one of you to give this a try. The version served up at the festival was mild and good with a creamy base of onions and hard-boiled eggs. I’m a fan of traditional pate, but as that mixes dairy (butter and cream) with meat, it’s a no-go for kosher eating, and I was impressed with the flavor and texture of this dairy-free version.\nThe falafel plate was another delicious thing we tried, and the folks making them were rolling them out by the dozen (see left). Paired with the chickpea croquettes were a wonderfully light hummus, a slice of pita, and one of my favorite things I ate all day, an Israeli salad. I don’t know if they chopped all that salad by hand, but the small bits of vegetables were tossed together with a light and flavorful dressing and just exploded with good flavor. By this point, we were pretty full, but given that there was a huge selection of baked goods, we knew we weren’t finished. We bought a variety pack of sweets and a whole babka (cinnamon cake) to take with us – and I’ll be honest, the babka didn’t even make it a full 24 hours before it was gone. If you’ve never had a chance to attend this festival, it’s definitely worth putting on your calendar for next year, and we’ll hopefully see you there!

{"text": "Ranking.\n14) Andrew Luck, Colts\nLuck was a top-ten quarterback before his most recent shoulder injury cost him all of 2017. Now, the question becomes how the 28-year-old will come back after a yearlong absence. The early reports are good, but we won’t really know for sure until we see him in a game situation. What we do know is that Luck, at peak performance with a solid team around him, is capable of 4,000 yards and upwards of 30 touchdowns. He could certainly move up on this list with a fully healthy year.\n13) Deshaun Watson, Texans\nWatson offered up a tantalizing glimpse of what he could be during his brief injury-shortened cameo with the 2017 Texans. There, he threw for 19 touchdowns in just seven games and added 269 rushing yards and two touchdowns with his legs. An ACL injury is a scary one, but Watson is expected to be healthy for the season. Hopefully he can pick up where he left off.\n12) Jimmy Garoppolo, 49ers\nHow much can you derive from five games, all of which were ultimately meaningless as far as playoff contention goes? The simply fact is Garoppolo did, in fact, win all five of them, throwing for 1,560 yards in the process. He’d prefer to get his touchdowns up and his interceptions down, but you can’t argue with results. The 2018 season, the first where he will be the undisputed franchise quarterback of a team, will be a major test for him. He looks like he has the credentials to meet the challenges.\n11) Cam Newton, Panthers\nOn one day, Newton can look lost at the quarterback position and throw inaccurate passes. Other weeks, he looks like the best quarterback in the league, a dual-threat dynamo not unlike the man who won the MVP award going away in 2015. Newton can be frustrating, but he’s still an immense talent who was responsible for 28 total touchdowns in a playoff season in 2017.\n10) Kirk Cousins, Vikings\nCousins put up consistently excellent numbers in Washington, but never played on a team that was expected to challenge for a Super Bowl. That changes in 2018. Cousins has been brought in to bring the Vikings over the top, and he has all the weapons he could ask for to make it happen. This is a guy who nearly put up a 5,000-yard season two years ago, and he’s a pretty safe bet for at least 25 touchdowns. That consistency is vital, and it’s what Minnesota will be counting on.\n9) Philip Rivers, Chargers\nEven though Rivers is getting older, he’s still producing at a very high level. He’ll be in search of his sixth consecutive 4,000-yard season this year, and he cut his interceptions significantly in 2017. The Chargers have a very talented offensive unit with Rivers at the head of it. As long as he stays healthy, he should have no trouble returning to the neighborhood of 4,000 yards and 30 touchdowns.\n8) Matthew Stafford, Lions\nThough the Lions have yet to taste playoff success with him at quarterback, Stafford has been the marker of consistency since 2011. He hasn’t missed a game, has surpassed 4,000 yards every season, and has led the NFL in game-winning drives in three of the last four seasons, with a remarkable eight in 2016. He’s not regarded as a truly elite quarterback, and will likely need to find playoff success to move into that bracket, but he’s still been excellent for Detroit."}

{"text": "Performance in Applications\nI have to admit that the overall picture of the new quad-core LGA 2011 processor is not that radiant. This relatively inexpensive processor for the most expensive desktop platform doesn’t let you build a solution with good price-to-performance ratio. An LGA 1155 platform with a Core i7-2600K or a Core i7-2700K processor inside seems to be much more appealing. However, let’s see how fast Core i7-3820 actually is in different resource-hungry applications. As we have just seen in 3DMark11, there are a few exceptions, which may end up becoming a determinative argument in favor of the new quad-core offering.\nTo test the processors performance during data archiving we resort to WinRAR archiving utility. Using maximum compression rate we archive a folder with multiple files with 1.4 GB total size.\nCore i7-3820 and Core i7-2700K perform equally fast during data compression. In overclocked mode the LGA 2011 processor looks better, but the leadership in both cases belongs to a six-core Core i7-3930K with the highest computational capacity of all today’s testing participants.\nWe use Apple iTunes utility to test audio transcoding speed. It transcodes the contents of a CD disk into AAC format. Note that the typical peculiarity of this utility is its ability to utilize only a pair of processor cores.\nAll processors participating in our today’s test session demonstrate almost the same results in the nominal mode (Core i7-2700K is a little bit ahead). This situation serves as a good illustration of how the frequencies even out when Turbo mode kicks in. During overclocking, when Turbo mode doesn’t work, audio transcoding speed depends directly on the clock frequency.\nWe measured the performance in Adobe Photoshop using our own benchmark made from Retouch Artists Photoshop Speed Test that has been creatively modified. It includes typical editing of four 10-megapixel images from a digital photo camera.\nThis is a pretty common situation. Quad-core Core i7-2700K processor for LGA 1155 platform outperforms the LGA 2011 newcomer, Core i7-3820, but both of them are pushed back by the six computational cores in Core i7-3930K. Overclocking doesn’t change the ranking in any way.\nNow that the eighth version of the popular scientific Mathematica suite I available, we decided to bring it back as one of our regular benchmarks. We use MathematicaMark8 integrated into this suite to test the systems performance:\nMathematica is an example of an application where Core i7-3820 works faster than the LGA 1155 products due to its higher nominal clock frequency. Moreover, it also manages to outperform its six-core relative. However, everything goes back to “normal” in overclocked mode when Core i7-3930K and Core i7-3820 work at the same 5.7 GHz frequency and Core i7-2700K runs at 4.9 GHz.\nThe performance in Adobe Premiere Pro is determined by the time it takes to render a Blu-ray project with a HDV 1080p25 video into H.264 format and apply different special effects to it.\nIt is a known fact that multi-core processors cope better with video content processing and transcoding. That is why you shouldn’t be surprised that Core i7-3930K is so far ahead in the nominal as well as overclocked mode. As for the score ranking among quad-core processors, the best performance belongs to those units that boast higher clock speeds. In other words, Core i7-3820 is leading in the nominal mode, but during overclocking Core i7-2700K takes over the first place. during common HD video transcoding with a popular x264 codec are ranked exactly the same way as in Adobe Premiere Pro.\nFollowing up on our readers’ requests, we decided to include another benchmark working with HD video content into our testing suite – SVPmark3. This is a special test measuring system performance in the SmoothVideo Project suite, which improves video smoothness by adding new frames with intermediate positions of the objects in the video. The numbers on the diagram are the test results taken on actual FullHD video fragments without involving the graphics accelerator.\nNow there are no doubts that during video processing LGA 2011 platform with a Core i7-3820 processor inside is always faster than an LGA 1155 system, even if the latter features a flagship Core i7-2700K CPU. Clock frequency is the most important parameter for tasks like that, and Core i7-3820 works at higher clocks originally. However, there are two things to keep in mind in this case. First, if we consider the possibility of overclocking, then LGA 1155 processors may end up being better, because they have higher frequency potential. And second, six-core LGA 2011 Core i7 processors will in any case demonstrate better performance during video processing tasks.\nWe will test computational performance and rendering speeds in Autodesk 3ds max 2011 using the special SPECapc for 3ds max 2011 benchmark:\n3D modeling tasks, such as 3ds max 2011, also belong to computationally heavy applications. Therefore, the platforms that feature (1) processors with larger number of cores, and (2) processors with higher clock frequencies will be better suited for applications like that. No wonder that the diagram above shows pretty much the same situation as we have already seen during our HD video processing tests.\nAnother benchmark measuring the final rendering speed in 3D modeling suites was run in Blender 2.6.\nHave you expected to see anything else? As we have anticipated, the overall picture is just the same as in 3ds max.\nThis way the relative performance of the quad-core Core i7-3820 looks about the same as that of the six-core LGA 2011 processors, adjusted for the number of cores. Core i7-3820 works at a higher nominal clock frequency than Core i7-2700K that is why it works faster than LGA 1155 CPUs in purely computational tasks. However, Core i7-2700K and Core i7-2600K processors have their own advantages: L3 cache with lower latency and a more efficient memory controller. As a result, Core i7-3820 yields to Core i7-2700K in applications working intensively with large volumes of data. Moreover, LGA 1155 processors are very efficient during overclocking: their frequency potential is generally higher than that of LGA 2011 CPUs and in the end they perform faster because of that."}

{"text": "Humor me because you know that anyone over 50 knows that the trusty Blackberry with its keyboard makes life so much better. Yes, it is so and after a drink or two -- you can probably get folks to admit it. Because writing emails while typing on glass is horrendous for the generation that didn't grow up with it tucked in their crib. Remember, people that run companies and even countries aren't usually Millennials, their pacifier wasn't an iPhone, and they still have to write in real sentences beyond 140 characters. Yep, I know that's old school, but sometime you need more than an Instagram photo, and other times you really don't want a video -- think Benghazi. Figure it out; everyone knows that the iPhone isn't a great business device even though it is cool and fun. Realize Hillary's job wasn't about fun before the grandchild. She was so damn busy -- please don't ask her to do her job, deal with the arcane State Department email system, calm down Netanyahu, and type on glass too.\nYet nobody is talking about the deep, dark secrets of Blackberry mobile devices and security. Instead everyone is piling on Hillary -- Democrats and Republicans alike in an attempt to pulverize the former Secretary of State. You know it's becoming an ugly mess that could have been contained. All we needed was an uber geek parading out before the press last week talking encryption and keeping America safe for the Secretary. Dah, that's not very hard to do, and if done right away it might have changed the narrative. By the way, former Secretary of State Colin Powell's emails are gone because he made them go away and nobody is jumping him. Did you notice? So perhaps the real issue isn't whether Hillary used a Blackberry, a blueberry or a raspberry. Rather maybe this brew-ha-ha is all about the power of her candidacy and the mob-like mentality that has coalesced against that. Aha, is that the real truth? Because it just seems that there is too much juice spilling all over every which way -- note Senator Dianne Feinstein trying to sort of help, or even worse grumpy Maureen Dowd. One wonders what is really seething below the surface, and why no one, including the Secretary, isn't doing a better job of defending her honor. In a week that the GOP continues to sabotage U.S. foreign policy, this is indeed very disturbing to watch.\nMore:Hillary Clinton 2016 Hillary Clinton Secretary Of State Hillary Clinton Hillary Clinton Emails Blackberry\nSUBSCRIBE AND FOLLOW\nGet top stories and blog posts emailed to me each day.

If LOOP works for him, it will work for anybody! Take a look to this beta testing on the go!.\nWe initiated the Napping Revolution in 2012 on Kickstarter with our first product, the OSTRICH PILLOW ORIGINAL. That landslide campaign went viral on global media and the rest is history. Since then we've created a whole family of napping products: the commute-friendly LIGHT and the discreet MINI models, also to great Kickstarter and public acclaim; as well as the GO version, a comfy neck pillow for stylish travelers.\nListening to our community of hardcore nappers has been our single most inspiring source of new ideas. We pay a lot of attention to their requests, which recently were pointing towards a more compact and easy to carry pillow that delivers a relaxing experience to the eyes, without compromising on our high standard of design. That’s why we created OSTRICH PILLOW LOOP, the most stylish eye pillow providing you a cocoon to disconnect and rest in the blink of an eye, wherever you want, whenever you want. We're super excited to bring OSTRICH PILLOW LOOP to you and can't wait to make it a reality thanks to your support.\nMany in the Kickstarter community may already know about us, STUDIO BANANA. We are a passionate group of designers who love to imagine new worlds and develop fun and functional solutions for people on the go. We are best known for the OSTRICHPILLOW® family, which has turned heads internationally for the last 5 years.

When you see OSTRICH PILLOW LOOP in retail, you must show off to your friends you made this product possible.\nAs you may know, we are a small business deeply committed to a top-notch product development and in all the products we have crowdfunded, we pay attention to every single detail. For us, quality of the product comes above everything else. OSTRICH PILLOW LOOP is not an exception to this ethos.\nMoving from prototype to production brings challenges at times. We have done our best to minimise the possibility of ugly bumps on the road by advancing a great deal in the manufacturing preparation. We have a ready-to-start manufacturing partner, with all fabric suppliers lined up, but incidents are sometimes inevitable and our priority is to deliver a top quality product to our backers even if it may take a bit of patience. We want to be absolutely honest and transparent: this is our 7th campaign and the experience we’ve amassed over the years is an advantage.\nOf course some international customs, certification, logistic delays, and Force Majeure may occasionally show their ugly head. However, rest assured we will be working full throttle to avoid any issues on our end.\nSHIPMENTS\nOSTRICH PILLOW LOOP is worldwide available: we will deliver it to every single location. Please, notice the shipping cost could vary by country.\nBackers will be responsible for applicable tariffs and customs fees.\nPlease support us in avoiding delivery delays by providing us your full daytime delivery address in English, together with your telephone number for our courier, as soon as you receive our survey at the end of our project.

The film is one of the last films to depict the events of a fictional World War III before the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War. Throughout the entire film, a sub-plot focuses on a single Boeing B-52 Stratofortress crew from the time of its emergency take-off from Fairchild AFB to receiving orders to enter the Soviet Union and begin destroying cities. The B-52 pilot and female co-pilot, who are shown carrying... on a clandestine romance prior to the emergency, eventually decide to disobey orders, at which time one of the airmen on board mutinies and attempts to kill the pilot. After a violent struggle, every aircrew member, except for the pilot and co-pilot, is killed when the airman ejects from the bomber, blowing the other crew members out to their deaths. The end of the film shows the B-52 flying into the sunrise, just after the President has ordered a stand down of the armed forces.more"}

{"text": "What is temporary staffing?\nTemporary staffing is where an employer hires staff for work that has a specific beginning and end date. Employment with a predetermined end date may be based on seasonal needs or the completion of a project. Temporary workers are also known as ‘temps’ or seasonal employees. Temporary staffing can be utilized by big and small businesses alike in almost any industry. Businesses are hiring high-skilled workers such as engineers, doctors and marketing managers on a temporary basis. Small businesses can utilize temporary staffing for various positions ranging from customer-facing to back office functions.\nThe popularity of temporary staffing as a legitimate way to supplement the workforce is evident. The American Staffing Association reports that “three million temporary and contract employees work for America’s staffing companies during an average week.” According to Intuit’s Future of Small Business Report, the temporary staffing trend is set to continue. The research found that, by 2020, 40% of the workforce will be temporary workers.\nIndustries that already utilize temporary staffing\nThe online employment website, CareerBuilder, stated in a 2018 press release that 51% of employers surveyed planned to hire temporary employees. Due to factors like seasonal and economic changes, using temporary staffing can be less risky than hiring permanent employees. The following industries hire the most temporary staff:\n- Retail – 82%\n- Financial services – 80%\n- Healthcare – 81%\n- Professional services – 81%\n- Public service agencies – 86%\nDifferent ways small businesses can hire temporary staff\nIf you’ve decided that your small business wants to utilize temporary staffing, you have several options to pursue, including:\nEmploying workers directly – Should you pursue this option, you’ll need to create a job description and do the advertising and interviewing yourself. You’ll be responsible for these temporary employees’ unemployment benefits, social security, and workers compensation since they’ll be part of your staff. The Small Business Administration (SBA) gives an overview of your responsibilities and obligations to temporary staff when hiring directly.\nUsing a staffing agency – If you want an easier but costly route for temporarily staffing your small business, consider using a staffing agency. Choose the staffing agency that is able to supply the most suitable employees after you provide them with your criteria. The staffing agency will supply the temporary employees and take care of the administrative side of recruitment, like checking references and drug screenings. The downside to using a staffing agency is that it costs you more per hour per employee. However, as a small business owner, you should budget for the additional expenditure if you view the extra cost as a reasonable trade-off due to the lower risk of using a staffing agency.\nHiring an independent contractor – Where you’re in need of someone with an expert skill set, like marketing or finance, an independent contractor may be a good choice. Independent contractors generally work on a per-project basis although they can also be paid by the hour. You can find independent contractors via professional sites, like LinkedIn, or ask your network to recommend someone they have used previously. The independent contractor is normally self-employed so you won’t be liable to pay their taxes or provide them with benefits. As there’s less of an obligation in relation to benefits when using independent contractors, some small businesses have misclassified workers to avoid their responsibilities. Falsely categorizing your workers as independent contractors can lead to your business being fined by the IRS.\nHow your small business should utilize temporary staffing\nSmall businesses owners can utilize temporary staffing in a number of ways to ensure that they are never under-staffed. Here are seven ways that small businesses can make use of temporary staff:\n- Manage seasonal fluctuations\n- Cover permanent staff\n- Decide if the temporary staff is a good fit\n- Save costs\n- Boost staff morale\n- Grow your network\n- Focus on business growth\n1. Manage seasonal fluctuations\nThe holiday season is normally the busiest time for most small businesses. Getting your business ready to maximize the sales opportunities means more than just having enough inventory. You also need to ensure that your staffing levels are adequate to deal with the increase in customers. Since the holiday sales spending cycle lasts no more than a few weeks at a time, hiring temporary staffing is a good way to prepare your business.\nThe amount of time that you hire your temporary staff for seasonal fluctuations will depend on how much training they will need to receive. If you plan to hire temporary staff directly, you’ll need to allow for extra time to show them the ropes. However, if you use a staffing agency, they provide workers who are experienced in your line of business and, therefore, would only require a shorter amount of training.\nAs well as holiday sales, small businesses, especially in the retail and hospitality sectors, have particular peak months, for example, the summertime. You can hire temporary staff for these months to keep your business fully covered. Alternatively, if your business has been awarded a new contract and you’ll find it difficult to deliver without help, then it’s a good idea to utilize temporary staffing. Utilizing temporary staffing in your small business helps to keep your customers satisfied while helping you to control your cash flow.\n2. Cover permanent staff\nPermanent staff will always require time off from work. Your employees will need to be away from work for vacations, medical leave or maternity/paternity leave. Small businesses can use temporary staffing as a stand-in to cover their permanent employees’ absence.\nHiring temporary staff with the right skills will help to keep your business running efficiently until your permanent staff returns. You may still need to take on temporary employees, even if all of your permanent employees are present. If your regular staff have no more capacity to deal with extra work, a temporary worker can lighten the load. If the increase in work is due to business growth, you can use temporary staffing to enable you to spend the necessary time to hire the best permanent candidate.\n3. Decide if the temporary staff is a good fit\nBad hires can have a negative impact on your small business. Employing the wrong person can lead to decreased productivity, a dip in staff morale and harmful financial implications. The decision to make a permanent addition to your team should be done very carefully with the maximum level of due diligence. Temporary staffing could be used as a type of ‘try before you buy’ service in relation to growing your team. Hiring staff on a temporary basis will provide you with first-hand information about the employee’s commitment and overall suitability for the job. Even the extra financial outlay of using a staffing company to find your temporary staff will be less than the investment you’ll make in both resources and time compared to making a permanent hire.\nIf you use a temporary worker through a staffing agency, you can relieve the worker at the end of their contract or terminate early if they’re not suitable for the role. The temporary worker can be replaced by someone with the right skills and attitude is found. Where your temporary worker is a good fit for your business and they have agreed to pursue permanent employment with your small business, you should liaise with the staffing agency (if you’ve used one) to make the necessary arrangements for the transition.\nTemporary staffing can be an effective hiring platform with 35% of respondents from an American Staffing Association survey saying they were offered a permanent job. Carrie Wood, the co-founder of the small business, Lease Ref, explains on the American Express blog that hiring temporary staff is a “litmus test” to find out whether the person should be offered permanent employment. She finds that this is an effective way of determining whether people are really committed to her business or whether they’re simply “looking for a paycheck.”\n4. Save costs\nSmall businesses utilize temporary staffing to not only save on the costs of permanent hires but also to save on carrying out parts of the HR functions. Some small businesses don’t have a separate HR function, so outsourcing the recruitment of temporary employees’ results in a saving from having a full-time HR manager on the team. Hiring temporary staff can be time-consuming and should be done by experts to avoid legal and regulatory pitfalls. Using a temporary staffing company or an independent HR contractor can provide you with the services you need at a lower cost than a permanent HR professional.\nSmall businesses make an additional cost saving when utilizing temporary staffing if a staffing company is used. The overheads associated with employing staff are decreased as the temporary worker is classed as the staffing company’s employee. Therefore, the staffing company is responsible for the temporary employees’ unemployment and workers’ compensation claims.\n5. Boost staff morale\nOverworked permanent staff can become disgruntled and are likely to look for opportunities elsewhere. Working too many hours can even pose a health and safety risk to your workers if they operate heavy machinery. Resentment will build up where permanent employees are under constant pressure because they’re managing the workload of more than one person. Show your loyal employees that you care about them by easing their unreasonable work burdens.\nTemporary staffing can be used to give your permanent employees the breathing space they need to do their job properly. Based on your small business trends and projections, you’ll know whether this extra work is fleeting or likely to be the new way your business operates. Either way, using temporary staffing to help your permanent employees – while you plan how to go forward – is a good move. If your permanent employees continue to be overworked, they could leave your small business, which will create more problems for you to deal with. The most suitable temporary staff will increase your permanent employees’ productivity and morale.\nAnother way that small business can use temporary staffing is to maintain the team’s cohesiveness. Resentment can build up between team members if employees have to do the work of their colleagues when they’re absent for a significant amount of time. Although taking medical and maternity/paternity leave is an employee’s right, the workers who remain may feel forced to increase their workload. As a result, the absent employee may experience hostility on their return to work because they’re regarded as the source of additional stress due to the extra workload. You can avoid this type of bad feeling creeping into your team by utilizing temporary staffing to allow your permanent staff to concentrate on their allocated roles.\n6. Grow your network\nNetworking is an important part of growing small businesses. Utilizing temporary staffing is an effective way to develop your business network. Firstly, temporary hires who have had a positive time working with your business will share their experiences with their network. This type of networking is particularly useful if you’re hiring temporary workers directly. Being in possession of a list of people that you can call on when you need extra help takes the pressure off finding the right temporary employees. Additionally, if a trusted temporary staff member is unable to work, they can recommend someone that would be a good fit to replace them.\nUtilizing temporary staffing to grow your small business network becomes very important when using independent contractors. When interviewing front of house workers, it’s easier to decide whether they have the aptitude for the job based on the answers to the interview questions. However, hiring the right independent contractors can be trickier because they’re experts in their field so you may not be sure about the validity of their answers. Asking independent contractors that you’ve worked with for recommendations is a useful networking technique. Independent contractors are careful about safeguarding their reputation, so there’s a higher chance that they’ll only send people your way who they can personally vouch for. A growing small business will need specialists’ skills at one point or another. For example, you may decide that your social media or your branding needs a revamp. View temporary staffing as a way to collect details of experts that you’re likely to need in the future.\n7. Focus on business growth\nUsing temporary staffing, especially when a staffing company is used, frees up small business owners to concentrate on growing their business. Hiring temporary staff through a company will mean that issues like payroll, benefits, and taxes are taken care of. The legal and administrative aspects of hiring temporary employees are also handled. Requirements under legislation, like the Affordable Care Act, can make it difficult for small businesses to remain compliant. A staffing agency handles the regulatory and legal requirements for hiring temporary staff. This means that one of the few things you’re responsible for is making sure the temporary employees are where they need to be at the right time.\nUsing scheduling software to manage your temporary workforce also frees up your time so you can focus on developing your small business.\nHow Deputy can help\nSmall business owners can utilize temporary staffing to run an efficient business.

There are statements ranging from complete and utter faith in spirits visiting us to the polar opposite, that they are nothing but a figment of an overheated imagination, and any and all variations in between.\n.\nI know spirits exist. I believe that death is simply a transition to another state of being which, one day I will also belong to. I also know that spirits communicate with us and if we are ‘in tune’ with the signs of their communication we understand that they are here if not seen. It can be frustrating feeling their energy present, seeing the physical demonstration of their attempts to communicate and not being able to see them. Some of the more common signs are flickering lights for no apparent reason, lights and other electrical equipment suddenly turning on or off, especially music, things moved around the house or familiar scents which are closely associated with someone who has passed away.\n.\nAll of these signs I take as evidence of their existence would be hotly debated and debunked, if possible, by sceptics. That is their right and they are entitled to their opinion, even if I feel they are misguided. Free will gives us that choice. However, I received proof, which I believe is incontrovertible, that spirits do exist.\n.\nAs a teenager in the UK I was fascinated by different religious beliefs, and in particular if there was anything after this life. I found it implausible that this life was all there was, and after the lights went out in this lifetime that would be it…. darkness forever. It seemed a fruitless waste of time. Reincarnation, in some form became realistic and if that was the case then why could there not be something else, those ghost sightings and stories, might they also have some truth in them? Parallel universe or dimensions, inhabiting the same time and space but out of sync with us. Anything could be possible.\n.\nI was walking along the street leading to my home when I chanced to look up towards the house, to the bedroom window where my parents room was. As clearly as I see ‘you’ I saw a man looking steadily out of the window. The curtains were in place and the lace was unmoved yet I could see him quite clearly. He was not anyone I knew or recognised. My family was home, in the lounge and no-one was upstairs. So who was this mystery man? At the time I felt uncomfortable about saying anything, knowing my three brothers would ridicule my over active imagination. Yet the thought wouldn’t go away and as I passed the door each night I could ‘feel’ a presence inside.\nimage courtesy of beyond-known.com.\n.\nI saw him many times after that, almost as if he was waiting for me to be walking up that street, the most direct route from the bus stop to home. It didn’t matter what time of the day or night it was. Even when winter fell we had a street light outside the house so the front of the house was well-lit and there he would be, clearly visible to me at least. He never moved whilst I walked along the street, and those lace curtains never moved either. As time passed his piercing stare seemed to be an invitation to step into that room – alone – and see him. Yet the feeling of cold emanating from my parents room grew more intense as tie went by, a cold which had nothing to do with the time of day or season. It took over a year before I ventured in there alone and then the strange occurrences came even faster. To me they were proof that I was not imagining what was happening and also that there were spirits with good and bad intentions just the same as the living.\nimage courtesy of hauntedamericatours.com\nThis is what most people see of spirits, on my visit to Port Arthur I was able to see in my photos many such inexplicable images. My ghost on the other hand was much more solid-looking, looked very real in fact and had the ability to move things around.\n\nThank you for some other informative site. The place\nelse may just I get that type of info written in such a perfect way?\nI’ve a venture that I’m just now running on, and I’ve been on the look out for such info."}
