It makes me sad to think that my father-in-law, Walt Schulenberg has been in Heaven now for over 5 years….not sad for him, but for me. He was such a sweet man, and having him for a father-in-law was always a blessing. When I first met my father-in-law, I liked his sense of humor, his willingness to help others, and his love of family. Early on, I probably would have said that my husband was very different that his dad, but as time went on, I realized that he really wasn’t. I discovered that the traits that I love about my husband came to him from his parents, and especially his dad. I think that is more common than we know, and the older each of us gets, the more we notice the traits of our parents. It is very much their legacy, living in their children.
I began taking care of my in-laws in 2007, and my father-in-law was somewhat surprised that I would devote so much time to them, but in reality, they were like second parents to me, and they had given me so much…not just in things, but in the gift of their wonderful son to be my life partner. They showed him how to be the amazing man I married, so how could I possibly not show them how great I knew they were. Life is a cycle. We raise our children with the hope that they will find someone to share their life with, and who will share their family too. My father-in-law was a great dad to his kids, in-laws, and grandkids. I feel very blessed to have known him.
Dad was a great teacher. He taught both of his boys to work on cars, build things, and to be responsible hard working men. His boys, and his girls too, have all become responsible, successful people, who all helped to take care of their parents as the end approached. It was their way of giving back to the wonderful people who raised them. It is sad to know that they have passed on now, and we do miss them very much, but we also know that they are not hurting or suffering in any way now, and that makes the pain of loss easier to bear. Today would have been my father-in-law’s 89th birthday. Happy birthday in Heaven, Dad. Thank you for the gift of your son, Bob, who is the love of my life. You raised him well. We love and miss you very much, and look forward to seeing you again in Heaven.
Everyone’s home life growing up is different. Some homes are very reserved, some are chaotic, and others, like mine are simply wonderful. We always knew that our parents loved us and that they loved each other too. In our house, there were kisses and hugs all around, but we got the biggest kick out of our parents kissing. Dad would come home from work, and give Mom a big kiss, and my sisters and I started singing a song we made up…”Mommy and Daddy are kissing!!” The more we sang the song, the more they continued to kiss. We loved teasing them about kissing, and they love having us tease them. Of course, there was no embarrassment on either side, because we loved that our parents demonstrated their love for each other. What makes a kid feel more secure in the stability of their parents marriage, than a daily show of love.
Of course, kissing wasn’t the only way my parents showed their love for each other. My dad was always the gentleman. He was very protective of my mom. He treated her like a queen, and made sure that we respected her too. He was a hard working man, and we never wanted for anything that we needed. Nevertheless, it was never the things that made us rich. It was the love of our parents that made us rich. There is nothing more comforting than to know that your parents will be there with you and for you. And mom, for her part, always made our home welcoming and inviting, not to mention teaching us to keep house and to cook. One of my favorite memories of my childhood was coming home for lunch on a school day, to find chicken noodle soup and grilled cheese sandwiches. That was my very favorite lunch, and it was great to come home to Mom’s cooking.
I’s like to say that there was never any drama in our house, but my parents had five daughters, and…well, drama is just a part of the deal. You get five girls to the age of their teens or close to it, with one phone, and everyone wanting to have their turn, and you have drama…not to mention the fights over the bathroom with all of us trying to get ready for school or a date. I suppose mom understood, but dad had to be a saint, and that’s all there is to it. With one bathroom, a wife, and five daughters, dad just had to wait…forever!!
Nevertheless, while there may have been a little bit of drama, our home was a house filled with love, laughter, singing, and yes with mommy and daddy kissing. Today would have been my parents’ 64th wedding anniversary. They will be spending it together in Heaven. I’m sure it will be a beautiful day, and I wish we could spend it with them, but for now, that is not to be. Happy anniversary Mom and Dad. We love and miss you very much.

Jared PickensFinance Professor
Cash is cool again.
We live in an age of instant gratification. We can get almost anything we want with a click of the mouse, a stroke on the keyboard, a slide of the finger on our smart phones…or the swipe of a credit card.
In fact, I’d be willing to bet that the majority of you only have cash in your wallet after Christmas and your birthday. I’m no different. I find debit and credit cards to be so much more convenient than cash.
Let’s face it, it’s a hassle to have to stop at the ATM to withdraw cash every time you want to buy something. Although if stopping by the ATM was our only option, maybe we’d think twice before spending money. Research actually shows that using debit or credit cards instead of cash causes us to spend more money…a lot more.
Certain studies have shown people to spend up to 47 percent more when they use a credit or debit card compared to people who use cash. Why? Well, for starters, when you swipe a card you don’t FEEL like you’re spending money. There’s a psychological impact that comes with watching your wallet get thinner, but you don’t feel that physical loss when you use plastic. Think about it. Pretend you only have a $10 bill to get yourself through the day. Would you still stop at Starbucks in the morning for that double tall, nonfat, one pump, extra hot mocha? Probably not. Using cash sets a real, tangible limit on the amount of money we spend.
Let’s look at another example. Say you go out for dinner and decide you only want to spend $20. If you take $20 in cash with you, you have set a real boundary. If your bill ends up being more than $20, you are either washing dishes or dining and dashing. However, let’s say that instead of taking cash you set only a mental boundary of $20 and plan on using a credit card. You have now put yourself in a position where there are no physical consequences of meeting your goal. There is really nothing stopping you from spending a little mor
e because the charismatic waiter talked you into a dessert. After all, what’s another $7.50? And you don’t feel the consequences until much later on when you realize you’ve gone way over your budget and you’re tapping into savings to cover your credit card bills.
It is often thought that people become financially independent or “rich” because they either inherited the money or invested in some hot stock that made millions. The truth of the matter is that most individuals become financially successful because they understand how to control their spending, pay themselves first and avoid financial mistakes. Wealth rarely comes from the rich uncle who left his nephew or niece millions in a trust fund, nor does it come from a smart-looking individual who looks at stock charts on five computer monitors while day trading in the market. You don’t have to completely understand investments, retirement plans or tax planning to achieve financial success. You simply have to set some attainable goals and be wise with your money.
I’m going to try something new this month, and I challenge you to try my experiment with me. Let’s take the first step towards financial success by seeing how much money we can save if we use only cash for the next month. Here’s what I want you to do:
• Log onto your bank account and make a note of how much you’ve spent on credit and debit cards in the past 30 days (excluding rent, utilities, and other regular bills).
• Set a budget for yourself for the next 30 days based on how much you want to save. Personally, I’m going to aim to cut back by 30 percent.
• Come up with a plan that works for you to make sure you have cash with you when you need it. Maybe you want to stop at the ATM once a week and take out ¼ of your budget. Maybe you want to just keep enough cash with you for the necessities and force yourself to go to the ATM before all of your big purchases. The important thing is, do what works best for you.
Try this for a month and let me know how well this experiment worked for you. How hard was it to only use cash? Did you save money? Is this a plan you think you’ll stick with for a while? I wish you all (and myself) luck with this experiment. I hope it helps us all realize how cool cash can really be.

A SAILOR’S POSTCARD FROM PALAU……….This is a fascinating factual account of a challenging voyage in command – The author served his apprenticeship with the Bank Line, and has written an interesting lifetime memoir called, ” A TRAMP FOR ALL THE OCEANS”. ( See details on this site)
A sample paragraph………….On the second day we had two stoppages, each of about 2 hours, due to main engine defects. The third day was similar with a couple of stoppages. This caused me to become concerned and I ventured to enquire of the Chief Engineer, if he had any doubts we could easily put into the small Port of Wewak or even Vanimo, but he assured me he had everything under control and the events of the past 2 days were quite common occurrences for this ship. With some hesitation I accepted his advice to continue towards Palau, but, as a precaution I replanned my courses to remain about 15 miles off the New Guinea Coast until abeam of Wewak, before heading North West, directly towards the Palau archipelago. This I concluded was the safest bet in case things went drastically wrong.

Album review: Joan As Police Woman & Benjamin Lazar Davis - Let It Be You
PUBLISHED: 09:56 01 November 2016 | UPDATED: 09:56 01 November 2016
Joan Wasser marks 10 years in showbiz with this cool, classy collaboration.
Not many collaborations can have crystallised over a shared love of the musical patterns of pygmy music emanating from the Central African Republic.
But soulful soloist Joan Wasser and fellow Brooklynite and multi-instrumentalist Benjamin Lazar Davis initially bonded over this specialist interest after separate trips to Africa.
Let It Be You is loosely inspired by these rhythms - but you’d struggle to spot it.
Recent single Broke Me In Two introduces the record’s overarching aesthetic, lacing crunchy electronica and treated instrumentation through simple riffs and motifs with Wasser’s distinctively soulful, leaping voice injecting essential soul and heart.
It’s a love song with a pop heart in a less traditional mould, paving the way for the accessible and surprisingly poppy Overloaded, which introduces Davis’ nondescript vocal and is painted with blocky, primary-coloured synth notes and a melody that lolls gently from side to side.
When they join one another in vocal interplay, Wasser sounds even more exotic next to Davis’ flat and smooth delivery.
Although the stuttering, programmed percussion is taken a step too far in Motorway, the rest is consistently, coolly intriguing.
The title track pops and struts with the attitude of a Fashion Week runway model, while at the other end of the scale is six-minute closer Station, which delivers the album’s most portentous atmospherics. Its delicate, intimate guitar-and-vocal beginning breaks into dramatic, cymbal-heavy drums, vocal and instrumental notes that are stretched over a slow and ominous rhythm, tantalising the hairs on the back of the neck. Pygmy patterns in evidence or not, this is an impressive set.

The Best HDR Image Processing Software for Mac and Windows
Multimedia • Updated on Feb.27, 2019
There are a few things that only professional photographers hear about. HDR isn’t one of them.
In the past couple of years, many camera apps have brought HDR support to smartphone apps. You will not need a fully-fledged software if you have a mid-range smartphone with better camera.
But, that’s not how things work when you capture photos using a DSLR. You need a dedicated HDR processing software if you need better control over your professional photographs.
Well, before we actually start talking about HDR Processing tools and the best ones, we think we should get a quick look at what is HDR, what it means to you and why would you need a HDR Processing.
The world of HDR
In case you did not get that yet: HDR stands for High Dynamic Range. So, you should first understand what is dynamic range. Dynamic Range is the ratio of light to dark. Digital cameras and smartphone cameras have a limit when it comes to capturing this dynamic range.
The actual imaging technique may miss something — which is actually visible for the naked eye. This is where HDR Photography comes in. HDR Processing makes sure that the image can reproduce a higher dynamic range, as to make it look better.
Before (SDR) and After (HDR)
While HDR can bring out every color in a sunset, over-processing the images can also take away from the detail you captured. HDR photography uses digital imaging and the sensors in cameras to differently map what the cameras capture in order to create a more dynamic contrast.
The sensors in cameras are far less dynamic than the human eye, but HDR processing software will differently map shadow and highlights by overlapping several different exposures of the same image. The software takes each level of exposure and combines the data, distributing the light captured by the sensors across the image more accurately.
There are a few more things an HDR software can do — in order to make the photograph more awesome.
Tone Mapping is one of the great things you can expect from an HDR software. You may get a flatter image when you subject it to HDR effect. Through tone mapping, you can adjust this and get a better photograph.
Some photographers use HDR Software for noise removal as well. Noise may be present when you combine two images to form an HDR image. Thanks to the plenty of editing tools inside, you can use it for optimizing the details.
Being relatively easier than the likes of Photoshop, you can use HDR Software for editing photos also.
If not HDR, you can use the HDR software for bulk optimization as well. Personally, I use my favorite HDR software for editing photographs in bulk.
So, an HDR software does more than applying the HDR effect.
Now that you have an idea, let’s start finding the best HDR software out there.
How we chose the best HDR software
Well, there are more than a few HDR processing software in the market. And, don’t you dare expect random selection to give you an effective HDR processing software. So, when it came to choosing the best tools, we had some criteria in our mind. Some of the core aspects were:
We wanted the HDR software to be quite simple to use and gain expertise in. To say the least, HDR is not something like rocket science, you know.
The tool should be performance-friendly when it comes to rendering and development. This would save a lot of time in the long run
We also recommend a tool that is multi-platform — Windows and Mac, to start with. This can offer a seamless HDR processing experience almost everywhere.
Of course, the tool must not compromise features like Tone Mapping and Optimization. These can effectively convert the HDR processing software to a not-so-bad photo editor.
In addition to these, our selection also looked at aspects like additional features. It’s nice to have some extra editing features. If you want an HDR image and make some quick edits to the image, these features come in handy. However, the four points mentioned above were given the utmost importance in selection. Shall we now get into the tools?
Aurora HDR is a reputed tool for HDR processing photographs. Both professionals and beginners have been using this awesome tool for years. Developed by Skylum/Macphun, Aurora HDR is noted for the brand-new features it packs.
It does not matter whether you want natural HDR or creative HDR effects. Aurora HDR can offer you a superb experience. We really loved using this latest version and we believe it deserves the top position here. Before we go further, let’s see what’s new in Aurora HDR.
What is new in Aurora HDR?
Compared to the previous version, almost everything in Aurora HDR has been improved. However, we believe the following additions are great for every photographer out there.
Quantum HDR engine Quantum HDR Engine from Skylum is the best addition to Aurora HDR. It is powered by AI and can offer a better tone-mapping process now. The best part is that the new engine has been proven effective for both bracketed and single photographs.
More Aurora HDR looks Aurora HDR Looks are presets that can come in quite handy. In the latest version, Skylum has included some more looks from reputed photographers. You can count them in when you are not so sure about individual HDR looks.
HDR smart structure HDR Smart Structure now takes care of details and more in your photograph. It makes sure that your photo looks fantabulous even after you’ve done the HDR part. Here too, we have to thank the Artificial Intelligence at work.
Furthermore, Aurora HDR now offers enhanced support for other apps like Photoshop, Apple Photos, Luminar, Lightroom etc.
Now, to the full review. Ready, folks?
Aurora HDR review
Nothing much has changed here to say. Once installed, you can start Aurora HDR quite immediately. If you don’t have prior experience, you can use the Tour feature as well. It does not matter even if you do not have bracketed images. Aurora HDR can help you create an HDR image from a single image or a single RAW file.
Therefore, you can simply open the file/files and start seeing the magic of Aurora HDR. If you’re already familiar with the tool, you can check out features like Batch Processing as well. From downloading the install package to creating the first HDR image using the program, Aurora HDR takes just only a few minutes, which is great.
The user interface
An intuitive User Interface is one of the best features we found in Aurora HDR. Nothing much has changed from the previous version. Once you have loaded the HDR image, you can choose the convenient viewing options as well. On the right side, the Optimization, Editing and HDR Control panels are available for easy access.
If you ask me what I love about the UI of Aurora HDR, my answer would be customizability. There are times when I just need to add a simple preset. And, there are times when I need a fully-fledged control panel for editing. Aurora HDR UI can be optimized for both these needs. You can simply hide/toggle toolbars and sidebars for the maximum productivity.
The HDR experience
Thanks to the awesome UI, it feels really easy to create an HDR image using Aurora HDR. As we said, it lets you create HDR from single images, bracketed images and RAW files. In all these cases, the tool gets the job done in a few seconds. We had tested Aurora HDR on a MacBook Air, one of the low-end Macs now in market.
So, if you are planning to run Aurora HDR on a mid-end or low-end device, it would be great. If you’ve a high-end device, though, the performance would be unbelievable. We really loved how Aurora HDR managed to focus on useful features and performance than making a messy interface. Altogether, the whole experience of making HDR images from Aurora HDR is pretty great.
Noteworthy features in Aurora HDR
As it happens, Aurora HDR does a few more things other than adding HDR effect.
It’s a full editing suite
Aurora HDR is by far one of the best minimal editing suites I’ve seen. Of course, there is no comparison with tools like Adobe Photoshop. But, take this scenario: you have made an excellent HDR image but it won’t look good without a few corrections. It has sections like Colour Toning, Glow, Image Radiance, LUT Mapping and HDR Basic edits and Colour Correction.
Aurora HDR looks collections
There are some amazing in-built presets in Aurora HDR. These are expected to make your job easier in the long run. If you are a beginner, you may not know which settings are suitable for which scenario. Using the HDR Looks panel, you can choose the best option. The collections include Architecture, Landscape and Artistic. You can also get pre-built looks from some of the reputed photographers who use Aurora.
To say that the workflow of Aurora HDR is productive is an understatement. It feels really easy to get started with the tool and finish everything off. For instance, as we said, you can optimize the Viewing panes as per your needs. On a personal note, I find Aurora HDR as the better option than using two tools for HDR processing and image editing.
By the way, did we tell you that Aurora HDR is designed for professionals? So, it offers plug-ins for other software like Photoshop and Lightroom. Skylum developers don’t want you to stick onto their own software, it seems. The point is, at the end of the day, you can have the best HDR and image manipulation options.
Availability and pricing
Aurora HDR is available for both Windows and macOS as of now. It doesn’t matter whether you have a MacBook Pro or Surface Tablet, it delivers the best experience. The devices should have minimum 8GB of RAM to smoothly run Aurora HDR, though. Coming to the price, you can grab the bundle license by paying just $99.
Skylum is offering some promotional discounts if you have been using Aurora HDR old version. You can log in find out more. Anyway, there is no doubt that the latest version of Aurora HDR is worthier than the $99 you have to pay. And, it has managed the top-pick position of the best HDR processing software for the second time too.
Photomatix Pro 6 is another great tool when you are looking for HDR processing tools. It’s available for both Windows and Mac but isn’t that feature-rich. On the other hand, you can use Photomatix Pro 6 as an easy way to do HDR stuff. Unlike Aurora HDR, Photomatix Pro 6 does not offer many editing features either.
Looking at the User Interface, there isn’t much newer. You have the traditional interface with the photograph on the center, controls on both sides. Although not as rich as Aurora, Photomatix Pro 6 offers a collection of pre-sets as well.
Getting started with Photomatix Pro 6 and using the program would be an easy task. From adding the photo to HDR and exporting the final file, everything happens so cool. However, we think it could have improved the User Interface designs.
Last but not the least, Photomatix Pro 6 is available for macOS and Windows. Resembling the case of Aurora, it wants you to pay $99 for lifetime license. Some other features of Photomatix Pro 6 include plugin support and Quick Export options.
Aurora HDR and Photomatix Pro 6 were not the only considerations we had. Out of the 20+ choices we had, here are some of the worthy contenders.
HDR Projects 4 is yet another popular HDR Processing software we’d considered. It’s different from Aurora in many ways. For instance, it does not allow much customization. You have to select the HDR style first and then import the photograph. HDR Projects 4 offers a better collection of pre-sets though.
There are more than 150 HDR pre-sets that you can apply. Rendering is quick and HDR Projects 4 does not consume much resources either. In many ways, HDR Projects 4 User Interface resembles that of Aurora HDR, but that is actually good. We hadn’t much trouble in getting used to it.
It should be noted that HDR Projects 4 is a better choice for hardcore professionals. It’s offering a number of advanced features that we hadn’t seen in others. The problem is that the features aren’t that organized per se.
Despite all these, if you have $99 to shell out, HDR Projects 4 is a great choice for sure.
easyHDR is a multiplatform HDR software that you can count on. It’s available for Windows, macOS and Linux distros. Compared to the tools we have listed, easyHDR is more minimal. Still, it allows you to process HDR photos in the shortest time possible.
Coming to the User Interface, easyHDR has kept simplicity intact. You don’t have to worry about the complex toolbars or designs. On the left side, it shows the available presets and, on the right, you can use the tools to bring major edits to the photograph.
Performance is an area where easyHDR becomes a pain in the ass. You may have to wait for some time for rendering the HDR exports. Similarly, you don’t have the best collection of presets. Even then, we’d suggest easyHDR for those who need a customized way to handle their HDR projects.
The Home and Commercial versions of easyHDR are available for $39 and $65 respectively.
Yet another awesome tool in the market, HDR Darkroom is one of my personal favorites. It has been designed with simplicity in mind. From choosing the right style to mapping the correct tone, everything can be done so effectively.
You can simply drag-and-drop the photo and applying the HDR presets. The performance part is so quick and impressive for most people. We also loved the simple interface with two sidebars. Coming to advanced set of features, HDR Darkroom offers Batch Editing as well.
If you ask us why we recommend HDR Darkroom, the reason is the User Interface itself. Within a simple set of options, HDR Darkroom has managed to offer comprehensive control. Indeed, you cannot compare these features with those of Aurora or Photomatix.
HDR Darkroom costs $89 per license. You can run it on either Mac or PC.
As you have seen, all the programs we’ve covered above are paid. Luminance HDR is an exception here. You can use this software without any limitation to build HDR images. It’s not the fastest HDR processing tool in the market though.
Compared to the other contenders and top picks, Luminance HDR is pretty slow. If you are getting the HDR images from a RAW file, you will have to wait even further. But, the point is that you can get the final HDR image without watermarks or other limitations.
Due to the same reason, we would not recommend Luminance HDR for hardcore professional. On the other hand, if you just want to understand the whole HDR Processing thing, Luminance HDR is the best place to start. It is available for Windows, macOS and Linux.
The bottom line
So far, we have seen how all the top six HDR Processor software performed. We tested all these software in a bunch of ways, finally comparing the HDR output image.
Considering all these point, we believe Aurora HDR deserves to be at the top position. It brings the best of all words, be it an impressive UI, best-in-class performance or best compatibility.
So, if you are looking for some real magic in your photographs, make sure you go for Aurora HDR.

Algebraic topology for understanding data
Adwaith Vijayakumar (~adwaith) |
Every data which we encounter in nature has an underlying shape and extracting this shape provides us with meaningful information about the topology of data.
In many practical applications involving classification and quantification, an idea regarding the underlying topology of the manifold from which the data points are sampled is necessary. Computational algebraic topology involves combining group theory , topology and linear algebra for extracting the topology underlying behind a noisy samples from the underlying manifold. A lot of packages has recently been developed in the area of computational topology. The talk presents a brief introduction to basics of computational topology and portrays how the existing python tools available for computational topology can be utilized for various applications.
- A gentle introduction to topology and algebra (10 min)
- How to associate algebraic structures to topological spaces (5 min)
- Analysing sampled version of topological spaces using a boundary homomorphism (5 min)
- Computing betti numbers using python (5 min)
A brief idea about metric topology and linear algebra.

Tough times are coming for my sweet family.
Inevitable changes are seeping into our lives.
We have fought the good fight. We have done our best.
Every person has his own portion of time.
My daddy’s is ending in his eighty-eighth year here.
I am coming undone at the thought of it.
We have always been we.
My daddy, my mama, my sister and me.
Who will we be?
He taught me to tie a figure eight knot this week.
I have been tying granny knots my whole life.
“A figure-eight doesn’t come loose like a granny.” daddy says.
Maybe I need to tie a big figure-eight knot around myself.
Maybe I should tie myself to a tomato stake too; so I won’t blow over or break down.
He has been busy building his planes and directing garden maintenance from his chair.
Those planes, that chair, the shop, the garden, the mountains.
He is everywhere. I cannot imagine him not being there.
Who will we be, we three?
I do not want to know, but we shall see.

Eye diseases – disease presentations
Macular degeneration, glaucoma or retinitis pigmentosa: What do they all mean?
Perhaps you have already heard about some of these conditions. But what exactly do they entail? In the following sections, we present a concise overview of the various conditions and treatment options.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD)
Macular degeneration is the most common reason for people being classified as „blind“ in western industrial nations. Even today, every 10th person over 70 years of age is affected by it. The clinical picture of AMD manifests itself in two ways: „wet“ macular degeneration and „dry“ macular degeneration. In both cases, the so-called macula, the area of maximum visual acuity in the eye, is gradually destroyed. This means that AMD patients have a „hole“ at the centre of their vision. However, the rest of their vision, the so-called peripheral vision, is usually retained. AMD patients are, therefore, especially in need of help, since, of course, the centre of our field of vision is important for all activities.
We have developed the NuCentro especially for people with age-related macular degeneration. Available in different versions, it is an aid to vision that redirects the light rays to the not yet affected areas of the retina thanks to specially ground lenses. In the best case scenario, the patient can regain almost normal sight.
Glaucoma is caused by increased fluid pressure in the eye. The most common causes are an overproduction of intraocular fluid by the gland responsible for producing it or inadequate drainage because of a too narrow chamber angle or a clogged drainage system.
An untreated cataract will always bear the risk of irreversible damage to the retina, as the increased pressure may squeeze large parts of the choroid. This is directly responsible for supplying the retina with nutrients and if these nutrients are unable to reach the retina, this area will be starved within a short space of time. Eye pressure is measured in mmHg (millimetres mercury) and should not exceed 21 mmHg. Normal intraocular pressure should lie between 918 mmHg. Higher or lower values may not be a direct warning signal, but should be clarified nonetheless.
We offer special aids to vision for people with glaucoma.
In cataracts, the eye lens gradually turns cloudy. There are three main types of cataracts: the cortical cataract, the subcapsular cataract and the nuclear cataract. This is also the sequence in which discomfort increases for those affected and is due to the different way they spread in the eye lens. The cortical cataract starts in the periphery of the lens and spreads to the centre, leaving the area necessary for seeing untouched until the end. This is the last of the three cataract types to be noticed by those affected, as nothing changes until the “final“ window is closed. The subcapsular cataract spreads across the entire area from the back to the front or vice versa. Only few persons notice the gradual loss in visual acuity. The nuclear cataract is located right in the “centre of the image“ and is therefore unpleasant from the outset.
They all have one thing in common. They can be fully healed by an operation where the natural eye lens is replaced by a synthetic lens. This surgical procedure has been performed successfully millions of times and is one of the safest surgical procedures known to modern medicine. However, before undergoing such a surgical procedure, you should consider whether you prefer seeing into the distance without glasses or reading without glasses afterwards. Both is possible and should be decided on according to your needs. We also provide special visual aids for persons with cataracts. If you have questions, please do not hesitate to contact us, we would be pleased to provide advice on this topic.
Retinitis pigmentosa is a hereditary disease in which the retinal cells initially degenerate and then die. The damage first begins in the outer part of the retina and then progressively spreads towards the centre. The patient develops tunnel vision because only the centre remains. RP patients usually have more problems orientating themselves indoors and out than with the typical areas of reading or other close-up work since the necessary retinal areas are not affected. Sadly, there is no treatment for RP that can stop the progression of the disease. We offer special aids to vision for people with retinitis pigmentosa.
Diabetic retinopathy is a disease of the retina of the eye caused by diabetes. The progressive damage of small blood vessels causes initially undetected damage to the retina and may eventually result in blindness.
There are three types of retinopathy: nonproliferative retinopathy, proliferative retinopathy and diabetic maculopathy.
Nonproliferative retinopathy is divided into mild (aneurysms of the smallest blood vessels), moderate (bleeding in the retina) and severe retinopathy (far advanced changes, retinal infarcts, and neovascularization).
The insidious thing about the first retinal changes is that the person affected by them does not notice anything.
If the retina no longer gets sufficient blood, the dangerous mechanism of the formation of new blood vessels arises. These new vessels may grow into the vitreous body. They are also prone to bleeding and can become detached from the choroid membrane due to scarring of the retina. Vison is completely destroyed and the eye becomes blind.
In the case of diabetic maculopathy, liquid flows out of the diseased blood vessels or a vascular occlusion forms.
This gives rise to water retention or bleeding in the macula, so that it swells and oedema occurs. The result is an increasing loss of visual acuity.
We offer special aids to vision for people with diabetic retinopathy.

Project #119: Raindrop Pillow
This Raindrop pillow is a fun way to reuse an old sweater. You can shape it any form you like.
What you’ll need:
*an old sweater
*a fat quarter of fabric (I used black polka dot fabric)
*small piece of black felt
*black embroidery floss
*coral embroidery floss
Step 1: Draw a rain drop on the butcher paper leaving 1/4 seam allowance.
Step 2: Pin the template to the sweater and cut the raindrop shape out of the sweater.
Step 3: Cut the raindrop shape out of the polka dot fabric.
Step 4: Put the two raindrop pieces together right sides together and sew with a 1/4 seam allowance. Leave a 3 inch opening at the bottom.
Step 5: With the black felt cut four legs leaving 1/4 seam allowance. Sew the legs together and turn right side in (you might need to use a chopstick). Stuff the legs.
Step 6: Attach the legs onto the raindrop.
Step 7: Sew on the eyes and mouth and you’re finished!

Sky sports presenter and respected commentator Martin Brundle, thinks that Red Bull driver Max Verstappen’s aggressive driving in Hungary was too ‘junior formula’.
A thrilling final stint to the Budapest race saw Ferrari’s Kimi Raikkonen try in vain to overtake Max Verstappen for 5th place. The pair came close to touching on various occasions, before they finally did touch on lap 57.
Many thought that the Red Bull drivers defending was ‘hard but fair’, Brundle wrote this in his sky sports column after the race.
‘Max’s defensive technique is too junior-formula for my liking. When he’s defending, he tends to loiter in the middle of the track and then at the last moment move to the side of the track where his opponent attacks, and cut them off. It all looks a little too late – and it’s asking for trouble.
There’s absolutely no doubt in my mind that he will end up with some punctures and race ending damage with this technique. He was very lucky on Sunday that the contact with Raikkonen’s Ferrari wasn’t more grievous but this style will hurt him soon and it’s clear the other drivers are becoming frustrated with it to the point that one of them will have him off to teach him a lesson.’
Brundle also went on to draw comparisons with legendary drivers Ayrton Senna and Nigel Mansell.
‘It’s what a Mansell or a Senna used to do whenever they thought a young driver wasn’t showing due respect. Max moves late, he moves fast and he moves frequently – we could argue all day whether he moved twice or even three times when he was defending against Kimi. He is rubbing up against the rules, damaging his own car and on the verge of coming to major grief with his peers.’
4 time champion and teammate to Kimi Raikkonen, Seb Vettel also waded into the argument after the Budapest race saying:
“I think of Max’s strengths is he’s very aggressive, obviously sometimes you overstep the line,” said Vettel.
“I think he will calm down, give him a bit of time. But it’s also one of his strong points – of course, when you are fighting with him and sometimes here or there the car in front is not behaving fair, then it’s not great.
“Kimi is one of the fairest guys in the field, but that’s how it is sometimes. The race is long, the season is long, so I’m sure they’ll meet again.”
Will they meet again so soon this weekend? Red Bull and Ferrari are locked in what is turning out to be an intense battle for second spot in the championship. Both sets of drivers vying to beat the ‘other’ team, and also driving for No.1 status within “their” team.
Perhaps more so at Red bull as Dani Ricciardo looks to stamp his authority over his younger teammate. Is Max becoming a marked man? Strap yourself in for some mighty action coming our way.

SECTION 1 - Historical Tanks 1/100 - This section has mostly Soviet heavy tanks from World War II, but also some early Cold War designs as well. My primary goal is to eventually complete the entire KV and IS tank families. I am starting to add some rare German vehicles as well, some of which do not qualify as tanks, but they have tracks and guns and were used in the war. If you visit this blog post
, you can download the latest version of my tank model database to see my completed and pending projects. Please note that any tank in this section that does not have "1/100" before its name is available in multiple scales.
SECTION 2 - Historical Tanks 1/285 - This section contains nearly everything in the previous section, as well as different variants thereof from different years. Furthermore, some of the models that I've made are available only in the smaller scale, such as the experimental U.S. heavy tanks and the British engineering vehicles. As of this update, the only tank available in 1/100 scale that is NOT available in 1/285 scale is the T-10M. Most of the these models are available as single tanks, a pair with the turrets on a sprue, or five with the turrets on a sprue. I did this to reduce the cost of building a tank division. However, with the most recent change to the pricing algorithm, it is much more cost effective, especially for collectors not interested in large quantities of identical vehicles, to buy these directly from my website
SECTION 3 - Fictional Tanks - When I started out, I had some fictional designs that closely resembled experimental Soviet designs, and all of them were in the same section. As the numbers of these increased and the designs became more varied, I saw fit to split this section of my shop. The most unusual item in this section is the ShU-255 Chuyinka Assault Gun: one day, I thought to myself "what would happen if I crossed a KV-2 with a dalek casing?" The ShU-255 was the result, and I made it a chuyinka weapon, which brings me to...
SECTION 4 - Chuyinka Empire - Models of war machines used and/or built by the chuyinka, a race of hyperintelligent, genetically-engineered, shapeshifting avian creatures from the planet Varanganska (all my own creation). These war machines (as of this writing) include the steampunk airships that they used to regain superiority over the mammalian races after they returned from the brink of extinction, as well as the ultra-powerful space weapons that they employed to bring entire galaxies to heel in later millennia. If I ever find the time to get Lightwave up and running on my computer, I'll even upload little figurines of the chuyinka themselves.
SECTION 5 - Adornments - This is the section for musicians, cosplayers, and anyone else seeking some unique and/or edgy accessories. This section includes jewellery and key fobs. If some of the items in this section look familiar, that is because I have supplied them for an Etsy shop called "The Alto Clef
SECTION 6 - Sailing Ships - You might notice that some of my ships are labelled as "1/700," but when you look at "what's in the box," it says "1/1000." This is because many of my earlier models were larger than they should have been, so I simply changed the scale. As more and more ships become available in multiple scale options, this problem may begin to disappear. This section is here only because I had gotten requests for a wide variety of sailing ships after uploading my first trireme model, and just went crazy experimenting with different designs and rendering techniques. Some of these models are small, very simple game pieces, and others are much larger, more detailled miniatures. In short, model shipbuilding has been my most valuable learning experience here on Shapeways.
SECTION 7 - Galley Game Pieces 1/1200 - Unlike the previous section, which is quite varied, this section contains only sets of 1/1200 scale ancient war galleys and similar ships. I started making these as 3d playing pieces for Avalon Hill's Trireme board game, but I'm sure that they will be suitable for other board games as well. All of these game pieces are colour-coded in the shop: red for the Romans/Italians, blue for the Greeks/Byzantines, yellow for the Egyptians, purple for the Phoenicians/Carthaginians, orange for the Ottomans, pink for the Chinese/Koreans, green for the Japanese, black for the vikings, and white for civilian/multi-faction ships. Of course, you can order the models in any colour you want, I simply chose different default colours to make it easier to sort through them all. In addition, you may have noticed that not every faction I listed has representation - yet.
SECTION 8 - Steamships - As the number of steamships in my shop has grown, I saw fit to add this section to make them easier to find. Some of these are historical ships, but most are my own creations. There is some overlap of this section with sailing ships, given that sailing steamers were quite common during the 19th century.
SECTION 9 - Steampunk Airships - As I get time (and inspiration), this section will fill up with all kinds of crazy designs. Right now, there isn't much here, but the introduction of black high-definition acrylate should open up a world of possibilities that simply didn't exist before in 1/1000 scale. This section, more than anything else, needs input from other designers (preferably fellow steampunks who don't have a Frankenstein's Monster of a computer to run CAD software, as I do).
SECTION 10 - Tank Parts - this section contains model tank hulls and turrets, so that customers can mix and match to create rare or fictional 1/100 scale models. This section also contains turrets in other scales, such as 1/144 and 1/30.
SECTION 11 - Ship Parts 1/300 - this section contains masts and hulls for 1/300 scale model wooden ships of all eras, from ancient Mediterranean war galleys to 18th century frigates.
SECTION 12 - Miscellaneous Parts - this section contains components for models other than tanks or sailing ships.
SECTION 13 - Random Art Objects - this section contains, you guessed it, random decorative items and mathematical art.

In my fast start out in coffee business, I did not have a lot of interest in joining coffee farming because of the requirements were quite high and as a fresh graduate from Makerere University, with no income or money, I found farming quiet hard. With the savings that I made from being an assistant hub manager in Kabonera Coffee Farmers Cooperative Society Limited, I managed to start as a young coffee farmer in Kyamuyimbwa Sub County with a garden of less than half an acre.
As a 28-year-old with a growing family, I have learned over the years that earning an honest living is always the way to go and I want my children to learn the same. Though my coffee farm is quite new, from the previous sale through the cooperative, I managed to bulk 76 Kg of FAQ and this gave me a big push towards developing my homestead. Some of the money I received I managed to renovate my house and the other for paying for household needs like water, electricity, food, healthcare and many others as the need arose.
We as cooperative are registering farmers so that we ensure that services are passed on to everyone in the group and this is being done through an online system that we believe we shall be able to share with different stakeholders that would like to engage with the cooperative.

Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit. (NKJV)
Words kill, words give life; they're either poison or fruit—you choose. (MSG)
Have you ever met someone and every time they open their mouth it was something negative or depressing? You asked them how they are doing? "I am barely making it." Just plain negative! Do not speak negative over your life! Speak life!
Remind yourself of the WORD!
I am lender and not the borrow. (Deuteronomy 28:12)
I am head not the tail. (Deuteronomy 28:13)
I am more than conqueror. (Romans 8:37)
I have the power to cast entire mountains into the sea and wither fig trees. (Matthew 21:21)
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.(Philippians 4:13)
Everything God made was for good; therefore use your tongue for:
GOSPEL instead of GOSSIP
PRASIE instead of PERSERCUTION
HOPE instead of HATE
WORSHIP instead of WHINING
EVANGELISM instead of EVIL
I pray for self-control over whatever comes out of my mouth. God, every time I open my mouth let my words be acceptable to You.
In Jesus Name,

It's hard to get a good night's sleep in orbit. Astronauts on the International Space Station see a sunrise every 90 minutes or so, which leads to some seriously messed-up internal clocks. Sleeping pills help a bit, but now scientists think they can game circadian rhythms more naturally—and effectively—with new light bulbs.
Sleep is regulated in part by melatonin, a hormone the body produces when the eye detects darkness. “Light is the most important cue for resetting the clock,” neuroscientist Steven Lockley says. In a replica of the ISS crew quarters, photobiologists installed color- and brightness-adjustable LEDs, and volunteers came in for light baths at different intensities. The results: The lower the light, the more melatonin in volunteers' blood, potentially improving their sleep.
Now researchers are testing how different wavelength combos affect alertness. Red-shifted light allows sleep, and bluish light wakes you up, so the next question is whether astronauts can sleep better and then perform better with wavelength-controlled illumination. By 2016, NASA plans to install the bulbs in the real crew quarters—and its astronauts can get some well-deserved shut-eye.

Message from Manuel Mangani – Amethyst Malta
My colleagues and I would like to invite you to the setting up of a Non-Governmental Organisation called Amethyst which will concern itself with alcohol-related problems. The idea is to muster the expertise of people from diverse standpoints and fields of expertise (including service users) and pool knowledge, ideas and skills to provide some services in the field of alcohol treatment not currently on offer, to provide a platform for educational activities about alcohol use and abuse to specific sectors of the population and to raise awareness about alcohol problems and the specific legal and educational measures which can tackle them.
The first General Meeting will be held on Friday 23rd February at the Capuchins’ Hall in Floriana (past Floriana Health Centre’s main entrance) at 5.45pm. Membership will most likely cost €10 (€15.00 for couples).
People who have experienced difficulties as users of alcohol and their relatives, workers in the treatment of alcohol-related problems and those involved with alcohol policy, public health and health information, together with others who are interested in the relationship between alcohol and individuals or alcohol and society are invited to attend the General Meeting. Any friends or colleagues of yours who would like to attend would also be welcome.
We would appreciate if you could let us know by return of email whether you – and any friends/colleagues – will be attending or not.
o.b.o the Steering Committee

The one test challenge every business experience is getting exposure to the right customers. The right consumers are the individuals most likely to be interested in your product and, therefore, buy it. Marketing revolves around identifying the ideal consumer and getting their attention.
A marketing agency will also ensure that they do everything to market your product at the best price possible. Media Group will not only offer marketing advice but also ensure that your marketing goals are reached.
What You Must Take into Consideration
There are some things that you must consider before you attempt to market your product. The idea is to be in a position to not only identify your customers but also connect with them.
Here are a few tips to follow.
1. Accept That You Have a Particular Audience You Are Targeting
It is rare to have a product that is meant for a general audience. Most business people have specific audiences they target. For instance, most cosmetics company such target younger women. That is why they employ models of a certain age group during their marketing campaigns.
You will need to accept that you also have a certain customer in mind. That is why you put certain qualities in your product. A marketer works with you to identify who this customer is and how to reach them and get their attention.
2. Figure Out a Method That Will Identify Your Target Customers
There are various avenues you can use to reach the customers that you need to address. First off, you have demographics which include gender, age and location. In addition, you have culture, beliefs, opinions and attitudes.
These days, you also need to figure out social media usage. There are multiple social media sites and new ones keep coming up. It is easy to figure out which age bracket prefers which social media platform.
For instance, younger audiences tend to gravitate towards Instagram and Tik Tok. Older audiences are more comfortable with Facebook and Twitter. Depending on your target age group, you will be able to use the necessary platforms to reach your clients.
Naturally, you should plan to exploit multiple platforms. Even one on one reaches via WhatsApp and email are effective.
3. Figure Out the Best Medium You Need to Use to Communicate
Technology has multiplied the channels marketers can use to market their products. Location may dictate the channels you use. For instance, if you only sell locally, your local dailies and media houses can get your message out.
However, if you plan to ship internationally, you can exploit the internet through social media platforms. As you grow, you can also use international media outlets. Begin by researching how your target customers receive their information.
Most people are on social media platforms these days. That is one avenue you cannot afford to ignore. Also, blogging and WebPages are quite popular with a lot of people.
4. Evaluate the Effect of Your Marketing Campaigns
Sometimes marketers will have an audience in mind and target their marketing gimmicks towards them. In the process, they realize that a different group of people is more interested in the product than the initial audience.
This response also depends on the channels you use to reach your customers. Feedback is very important because it tells you whether you are making headway or not.
You must avoid making assumptions about your customers. Adjust your strategies accordingly and create campaigns that fit in with the new reality. The initial campaign can be used as a learning experience.
Targeting and connecting with an audience is very important for your business. You should exploit every opportunity and channel available to create awareness of your product. However, if a different audience responds better than the intended one, simply roll with the punches.
The first campaigns will teach you a lot and you may make a few errors in spite of your best efforts. The idea is to take the lessons and grow from them.

Casino games, notably Roulette and Baccarat, are my favorite games. All casinos are giving these games; I bet on lots on online casinos, but my beloved casino is baccarat casino. It is currently offering free $30 bonus for those who are joining their site. There is no issue if you choose to ask me why people decided to participate in 바카라후기.
Online casinos are among my 밀리언카지노, and I take part with techniques that I get from other sites and experience. This approach helps me elevate my winning chances. Lots of casinos have also cut on restriction or decrease restriction by providing the best strategy to help me win on each table. Baccarat casinos have a betting restrict. However, at this point, baccarat has an offer for newbies. Whenever I am doing technique betting, I usually have high chances of hitting the target after several attempts, even if I don’t end winning.
Another function that makes me keeps with baccarat is the consumer solutions given by the casino. The casino company offers twenty-four hours online support to the players. Once you click on the web help symbol, a support consultant can result for your requirements immediately. Baccarat customer care is standby to offer help whenever there is an issue concerning approving my bet, updating my bill or payments as well as delay and so on.
The customer desk is always at stand by to solve my issues. Before signing up with a casino, I usually check the web help conversation always to guarantee the casino offers the best service whenever a client asks for help. Baccarat passed my evaluation on outstanding help requirements. Besides that, I also check other client’s reviews as well as how the betting site responds to their issues. It has been great so far with baccarat betting site.

This spring Jason Mendelson and I taught a class called Venture Deals with the Kauffman Fellows Academy. It was a blast so we’ve decided to do it again.
KFA uses NovoEd as their platform. Jason and I spent two days recording videos around our Venture Deals: Be Smarter Than Your Lawyer and Venture Capitalist explaining each section and going deeper with Q&A. The course is a MOOC that includes significant Q&A that I participated in throughout the course, along with a weekly Google Hangout covering different topics.
Some of the reviews from the course kind of say it all:
- “It’s one thing to read a book, blog, article, etc about venture deals but the process of assignments with a team is like doing a virtual reality journey – you feel as if you are actually pitching a VC. Can’t compare this to reading an article.”
- “Team based, good chance to interact with other students”
- “The quality of the video content, as it complemented the book, was fantastic.”
- “Straight forward approach to learning about VC deals “
- “A course at a university would have charged $2,000 to $3,000 and likely not have the caliber of instructors.”
- “These Google Hangouts are priceless and Brad Feld has been outstanding on this course.”
- “The Venture Deals class is awesome because it bridges the trust deficit between Founders and VC’s”
Sign up for the course now – it’ll be running from June 16th to August 2nd. Use the discount code 2VD20 to get 20% off the price of the course.

When Van Halen Played Their Last Concert With the Original Lineup
Any rock band with a flamboyant frontman is bound to face its share of personality conflicts, and in the preening David Lee Roth, Van Halen had a singer more flamboyant than most. By the mid-'80s, not even the world-beating success of their smash 1984 LP was enough to keep the group's volatile blend from blowing up in the band members' faces.
Tension in the ranks was nothing new for Van Halen. But in the past, more often than not, it had produced a net positive effect, with the separate sides in conflicts over musical direction meeting in the middle to create the band's signature sound – an eminently radio-friendly combination of hard-rock crunch and pure-pop sheen. It added up to multi-platinum magic with 1984, but it also pushed their bond to the breaking point, and by the time they hit the road to start promoting the album, the writing was pretty clearly on the wall.
The primary tug of war was between Roth and guitarist Eddie Van Halen, involving everything from creative pace to creative output. Roth's stated aims, as always, were crystal clear. "I've always been a showoff," he told the Sunday Times in 1984. "But I've also always had something to say. I will express myself through other avenues. Just so long as I'm famous. So long as the spotlight's on Dave."
It was that attitude that helped drive a wedge between Roth and his bandmates – and sparked persistent rumors that he'd break ranks to start a solo career. In public, however, harmony generally prevailed; as Roth told the Face in October of that year, "Barring any acts thereof, Van Halen will continue forever." Even then, he quickly added, "But if we don't, which I suppose is possible, you know what they say in the music business: here today, gone later today."
Things didn't seem as cheerfully cavalier behind the scenes: Roth traveled under separate cover during the 1984 tour, and even during the pre-TMZ era, the widening divide was hard to disguise. "There was always tension between me and Edward," he shrugged. "But then there’s always tension with me and everyone!"
That tension continued to rise throughout the first half of 1984, as the band hit the road for a four-leg North American tour. Even with a series of sold-out dates, one of the biggest albums of the year and a trio of Top 20 singles at their backs, the group was rapidly losing steam, and by the time they started a run of European shows with the Monsters of Rock Tour in August, they were approaching the end of an era.
The band played its final Monsters of Rock date on Sept. 2, 1984 in Nuremberg, Germany, closing out the 1984 tour by playing what would prove to be their final date with Roth for more than two decades. Things didn't fall apart quickly, however: Early the next year, when Roth started his solo career with the Crazy From the Heat EP, he still insisted that he was part of the band, using a guest appearance on Late Night With David Letterman to proclaim: "I've got strong tribal instincts, and we'll be going to the studio sometime in the next month to start arguing again."
That proved excessively optimistic. Roth quit the band not long after, with his departure made official in mid-August 1985, opening the door for Sammy Hagar to step in and front Van Halen through a series of hit albums and singles. Like Roth before him, Hagar departed the lineup in acrimony, leaving in 1996 and beginning a bumpy decade that saw both Roth and Hagar returning for brief stints that sandwiched Gary Cherone's brief tenure. Once among the biggest bands in the world, they seemed irreparably broken.
"We were in the middle of this thing and it was getting bigger and bigger," said Alex Van Halen in an interview with fan newsletter the Inside. "Individually, we were so far apart that it was like night and day. We were never together, although it looked like we were from the public's standpoint. That's why in 1984 it was very natural for it to fall apart. We saw it coming, even though when it actually materialized, it was a surprise."
In the end, though, sometimes we're better off with the devils we know – and finally, after years of silence and an even longer stretch of discord, the Van Halens reunited with Roth for a tour in 2007 and a new album, 2012's A Different Kind of Truth, and subsequent tour. It wasn't perfect: Co-founder Michael Anthony had been forced out after touring alongside Hagar, and a substantial portion of the record was culled from older demos. Still, the album did accomplish something fans long thought all but impossible, restoring Dave and Eddie to their rightful positions on opposite sides of one of rock's best, longest-running battles.
"We accused each other of betrayal and thievery and lies and treachery," Roth laughed in a 2012 interview with the Los Angeles Times. "And it was all true. We were all guilty. Dig up the past, and it's going to get all over everybody. And, man, do we have a past."

If you are shopping in the upper-end of the double-cab bakkie market and are prepared to pay the price then you should take a closer look at these 5 most expensive double-cab bakkies.
The new, Navara-based Mercedes-Benz X-Class was recently launched in South Africa and it now wears the crown as the most expensive double-cab bakkie on sale in our market. The current top-of-the-range X250d 4Matic Power automatic derivative comes in at an eye-watering R824 205 before you start ticking off options! It’s powered by a biturbo 2.3-litre diesel engine with 140 kW and 450 Nm of torque that is mated to a 7-speed automatic transmission.
Of course, there are cheaper X-Class’ on offer too and if you opt for the more workmanlike, entry-level X220d Progressive with 120 kW and 403 Nm dispatched from its 2.3-litre turbodiesel engine, you are looking at a price of R646 071 for manual or R699 071 for the automatic. Both engine choices are offered in either 4x2 or 4x4 guise.
It does not end there though, Mercedes-Benz will be introducing a V6-powered X350d model later in 2018 to rival the Amarok V6 and it will arrive with 190 kW and 550 Nm of torque. However, it is expected to cost a small fortune with pricing expected close to R1 million. Ouch!
Watch our video review of the Mercedes-Benz X-Class below!
Prior to the arrival of the Mercedes-Benz X-Class, Volkswagen’s Amarok was the most expensive double-cab bakkie in South Africa, but now looks like "good value for money" when parked next to the X-Class.
The Amarok range is headlined by the 3.0 V6 Extreme 4Motion derivative priced at R791 300. It offers peak outputs of 165 kW and 550 Nm of torque, but there is a further overboost function that lifts power to 180 kW and torque up to 580 Nm, making it the most powerful diesel double-cab currently on the market. This derivative is equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission.
Volkswagen will also be launching a more potent Amarok V6 version in 2019 with power outputs of 190 kW and 580 Nm of torque (with an overboost function that increases power to no less than 200 kW for up to 20 seconds).
A 2.0-litre turbodiesel engine with 103 kW and 340 Nm is offered with pricing starting at R515 600, while a bi-turbo 2.0-litre diesel engine with 132 kW and 400 Nm of torque is also available (those derivatives start at R551 500). Both engines are offered in 4x2 or 4x4 guise.
Watch our video review of the Volkswagen Amarok V6 below!
Toyota Land Cruiser 70 Series
Although it’s perhaps not as modern as the other double-cab bakkies on this list, the Toyota Land Cruiser 70 Series is highly regarded as a robust and reliable workhorse and it has a devout and loyal following in South Africa.
The V8-powered Land Cruiser LX derivative is equipped with a 4.5-litre V8 turbodiesel engine that offers a heady 151 kW and 430 Nm of torque and is fitted with a 5-speed manual transmission. It’s the most expensive double cab in the range with a price tag of R743 200.
The more affordable diesel option is a naturally-aspirated 4.2-litre diesel engine with 96 kW and 285 Nm of torque which is also mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. Pricing for this derivative is R662 400.
You can, of course, opt for the cheaper 4.0-litre V6 petrol derivative with 170 kW and 360 Nm of torque, which is priced at R632 200.
The tried-and-tested Toyota Hilux is the best-selling bakkie in South Africa and the limited edition Hilux V6 4x4 Raider Dakar edition is currently listed as the most expensive Hilux in the range with a price of R662 700. It’s fitted with a 4.0-litre V6 petrol engine with 175 kW and 376 Nm of torque and mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission. Read more: Toyota Hilux Dakar Edition Price Announced
The standard Hilux 4.0 V6 4x4 Raider is priced at R651 800. The 2.8-litre GD-6 4x4 Raider automatic is the pick-of-the-range and offers 130 kW and 450 Nm of torque, coupled with a 6-speed automatic transmission and priced at R601 600. This derivative can also be had in Dakar guise for R621 000.
Here are 5 things you should know about the Toyota Hilux!
The mighty Ford Ranger is hugely popular in South Africa and currently ranks second in terms local sales. The Wildtrak 4x4 double cab, which is priced from R633 500, is perched at the top of the range with its bullish styling and powerful 3.2-litre turbodiesel engine that offers up 147 kW and 470 Nm of torque. A 6-speed automatic transmission is standard. The 118 kW / 385 Nm 2.2-litre turbodiesel engine is also worth consideration with pricing starting from R445 500.
Ford recently announced that the facelifted Ranger will come to market in 2019 fitted with the same 2.0-litre, bi-turbodiesel engine that powers the Ranger Raptor (also due in 2019) with 157 kW and 500 Nm of torque. A new 10-speed automatic transmission will also be offered on the facelifted Ranger when it arrives. We expect the Ford Ranger Raptor to be priced at about R800k.

Open enrollment is underway for Medicare Part D, and those patients are being urged to compare plans instead of just sticking with the same one.
There are a number of changes to the drug coverage plans for 2020. That includes everything from deductibles and initial coverage to catastrophic coverage.
Webb City pharmacist Koby Prater says picking the wrong plan can drive up costs by hundreds of dollars.
“The plan with the $15 premium is not always the least expensive,” Prater explained. “And usually, those lower premium plans do have a deductible that has to be met the first of the year right after Christmas, and property taxes.”
Prater adds that he, and many other pharmacists, will help patients weigh their options to make sure they pick the plan that’s right for them. For program details, you can click here.

Home Online catalogues Art on Paper. Recent Acquisitions 13. Léon Cogniet Paris 1794 – 1880 Paris Moonlight Reflections on the Sea Léon Cogniet’s awakening to landscape happened during his time in Rome. The French painter had moved to the city shortly after winning the Grand Prix in 1817, and together with Achille-Etna Michallon (1796-1822), he belongs to the generation of painters trained there who directly applied the teaching of Pierre-Henri de Valenciennes (1750-1819). The Musée des Beaux-Arts of Orléans, depositary of Cogniet’s studio stock bequeathed by his widow in 1891, holds a great many testimonies to the artist’s work as a Romantic landscapist. A series of views in oil depicting the Normandy coast, in particular,1 reveal his sensibility to atmospheric effects and his gift for rendering flowing visions of sky and sea. These seascapes, which various inscriptions allow us to date between the years 1850 and 1870, share many similarities with the present drawing. In this case, however, the use of a dry technique is uncommon among the artist’s landscapes: he generally executed them in oil on paper, or even in ink. He appears to have kept these works for his own use, subsequently mounting several of them.2 The square format of the work, which emphasises the abstract dimension of this night-piece, is equally unexpected. Above all, though, it is the textural effects describing the vaporous foam – created by means of impastos of oil paint reworked with a brush,3 or, in our drawing, with white chalk heightening – that express Cogniet’s originality to the utmost. The artist, with the sparest means, evokes this moonlight on the sea, making the most of the paper’s colour and texture to bestow an overall harmony on his drawing. The moon’s reflections are rendered in white chalk, applied in distinct accents on the crest of the waves or blended with the stump. Sky and sea appear to merge in one and the same shifting liquid element. The vertical of the cliff alone, on the right, connects this vision with the tangible world. Ultimately, the artist sought to create a total sensorial experience, as visual as it is tactile, suggesting the impression of a mist enveloping the beholder. A lonely silhouette,4 at the foot of the cliff, gives this scene its melancholy, contemplative mood. In this drawing, Cogniet achieved a formal freedom and poetic impression that the rest of his graphic oeuvre might not suggest him capable of. As its provenance is not known, it is difficult to come to a conclusion about this sheet which, exceptionally, bears the artist’s monogram: should we, perhaps, suppose it was a personal work given to a near relation?

But the law was not retroactive, so inmates with a death sentence imposed before that date can choose between firing squad and lethal injection. An inmate who chooses the firing squad sits in a specially designed chair in which guards restrain his or her arms, legs, and chest. The head is loosely confined so that it remains upright. The condemned inmate wears a dark blue outfit with a white cloth circle attached by Velcro over the heart. Sandbags behind the chair catch the four — or five — bullets and prevent ricochets.
He jumped up, staggered several feet, and fell forward, crying out: “Oh, my God! My God! ” Three of the four bullets entered Wilkerson’s body above the heart. The fourth ripped into his arm. Witnesses reported that he lay writhing in pain for twenty-seven minutes before he was finally pronounced dead. Hal Schindler also described a botched firing-squad execution in September 1951 at a new prison in Point of the Mountain, Utah. News reports at the time provided scant details of the execution. Twenty-five years later, Tribune reporter Clark Cobb unearthed information that only two of the four bullets fired from a distance of fifteen feet struck Eliseo Mares.

Testosterone is a steroid hormone from the androgen gathering and is found in warm blooded creatures, reptiles, winged animals, and different vertebrates. In well evolved creatures, testosterone is emitted basically in the testicles of guys and the ovaries of females, albeit little sums are likewise discharged by the adrenal organs. It is the key male sex hormone and an anabolic steroid.
In men, testosterone assumes a key part in the advancement of male conceptive tissues, for example, the testis and prostate and additionally advertising auxiliary sexual qualities, for example, expanded muscle, bone mass, and the development of body hair. Also, testosterone is fundamental for wellbeing and prosperity and the avoidance of osteoporosis.
On normal, in grown-up guys, levels of testosterone are about 7–8 times as extraordinary as in grown-up females, at the same time, as the metabolic utilization of testosterone in guys is more amazing, the every day creation is something like 20 times more stupendous in men. Females are likewise more delicate to the hormone. Testosterone is seen in generally vertebrates. Fish make a somewhat distinctive structure called 11-ketotestosterone. Its partner in bugs is ecdysone. These omnipresent steroids propose that sex hormones have an old evolutionary history.
Testosterone could be utilized by a competitor as a part of request to enhance execution, however it is recognized to be a manifestation of doping in generally dons. There are a few requisition techniques for testosterone, including intramuscular infusions, transdermal gels and patches, and implantable pellets. Supplement of the hormone brings about easier metabolic creation through the Farquharson marvel, making long haul reliance for enhanced execution level.
Anabolic steroids (counting testosterone) have likewise been taken to improve muscle improvement, quality, or continuance. They do so straightforwardly by expanding the muscles’ protein union. Thus, muscle strands get bigger and repair quicker than the normal person’s. After an arrangement of embarrassments and attention in the 1980s, (for example, Ben Johnson’s enhanced execution at the 1988 Summer Olympics), denials of anabolic steroid utilization were replenished or reinforced by numerous games associations. Testosterone and other anabolic steroids were designated a “controlled substance” by the United States Congress in 1990, with the Anabolic Steroid Control Act. The utilization is seen as being a genuinely risky issue in current game, especially given the lengths to which competitors and expert labs go to in attempting to disguise such misuse from games controllers. Steroid ill-use at the end of the day came into the spotlight as of late as an aftereffect of the Chris Benoit twofold homicide suicide in 2007, on the other hand, there has been no confirmation demonstrating steroid use as a helping factor.
Some female competitors may have regularly more elevated amounts of testosterone than others, and may be asked to agree to a “helpful proposal”, either surgery or pills, to lessening testosteone levels to a level thought worthy to contend reasonably with others.

Last week, the European Parliament tweeted a video about Article 13, informing the public that their memes are safe. The video was criticized for being inaccurate and this week, things got worse. It turns out that the video was created by a major media company, which lobbied extensively in favor of the EU Copyright Directive.
Later this month, Members of the European Parliament will cast their final vote on the EU Copyright Directive.
This includes the controversial Article 13 which is praised or condemned, depending on which side you’re on.
With just days to go, both camps are doing all they can to have their voices heard. Various rightsholder groups are calling on the public to support the livelihoods of artists and creators, for example. On the other hand, opponents are organizing protests, both on and offline.
Interestingly, the European Commission and Parliament also got involved, both with a clear pro Article 13 stance. The Commission started mid-February by referring to opponents of the proposed legislation as a “Mob.” This article was later deleted, as it was apparently “misunderstood” by the public at large.
Then last week, the European Parliament chimed in by publishing a pro Article 13 and Article 11 video. This was an odd move, as it’s clear that not all Members of the European Parliament are in favor of the proposals. There still is a final vote, after all.
Making matters worse, the video includes all kinds of misleading or plain false information, as Pirate Party MEP Julia Reda highlighted.
“The video says a lighter regime applies to platforms that have a turnover below 10 Million *or* less than 5 million unique visitors. This is just wrong. Actually, the lighter regime only applies if both criteria are met, and platforms are also younger than 3 years old.”
Your memes are safe ?
Freedom of expression is not affected ?
It’s all about fair payment to content creators ?
— European Parliament (@Europarl_EN) February 27, 2019
These errors only served to rile up the “mob” of opponents, instead of convincing them that all was fine. While that was enough reason for concern already, things took a turn for the worse yesterday. At least, from a PR perspective.
Reda decided to use her privileges as an MEP to look into the origin of the video. She found out that it wasn’t created by the European Parliament itself but was outsourced to a third-party contractor, Agence France-Presse (AFP).
This isn’t unusual in itself. External contractors are used all the time and AFP is a reputable news agency. However, in this case, it certainly looks bad, as the same organization was the driving force behind a pro Article 11 lobbying campaign last September.
“The video by the European Parliament to inform the public about the Copyright Directive was made by an organization which has a massive conflict of interest,” says Reda, summarizing her findings.
Even if all the wording in the video came directly from Parliament, involving a third-party stakeholder doesn’t look good PR-wise. Especially when the video itself is highly controversial and in part misleading.
In all fairness, there has also been plenty of misinformation from some opponents of Article 13. There are always extremes on both sides. Ideally, however, the European Parliament should remain as objective as possible, at least until the final votes are cast.
With its video, the European Parliament only riled up the opposition, something which runs completely counter to its intentions.
Something similar also happened when Volker Rieck, managing director of the anti-piracy firm File Defense Service, released ‘evidence’ of a smoking gun recently.
In the past Rieck has frequently accused US tech companies of funding Article 13 opposition, describing it as an assault on politics. This belief was strengthened by a study which looked at the location of people who Tweeted in opposition of the Copyright Directive, including the #saveyourinternet tag.
The research, which used the social media analytics tool Talkwalker, revealed that a disproportionate amount of all tweets came from the United States, mostly from Washington DC. In some cases, more tweets came from the US than the EU.
From the report (now removed)
These findings, which led to the suggestion that US corporate interests are influencing EU politics, were shared in a letter to Members of the EU Parliament. However, soon after it was sent it became apparent that the data is far from perfect.
It turns out that Talkwalker attributes tweets to Washington DC when the user doesn’t share his or her location. This explains why the tweets of Julia Reda and others ‘appeared’ to come from the US, when they were clearly not.
While there is no sign of any deliberate intent to mislead in this instance, the whole episode was rather unfortunate. And again, it only added fuel to the fire for those who are staunchly against Article 13. After being branded a ‘mob’ they were now branded as ‘bots.’
This inspired some people to take their protests to the streets. In Berlin, Germany, people protested at the headquarters of the CDU party this week, shouting “We are no bots!” And they certainly didn’t travel all the way from Washington DC.
— Change.org DE (@ChangeGER) March 5, 2019
During the weeks to come there are more offline demonstrations planned throughout Europe, mostly Germany.
Responding to questions from the public on Reddit, Julia Reda called on people from other countries to get involved as well. These demonstrations make a bigger impact than writing to MEPs or tweeting a message.
“This is the most powerful proof that people really do care about it, and it has led many MEPs to change their minds. But we can’t win this vote with protests in Germany alone, they need to spread to other countries,” Reda said.
Those in favor of Article 13 are not sitting still either and are continuing to both lobby and protest.
Whether it’s wise for the European Parliament to get actively involved any further is doubtful. The video has shown that such efforts are not going to convince those who have made up their mind. On the contrary, in this case, it completely backfired.
Many thanks to TorrentFreak for the breaking news.

ZTE is no stranger to T-Mobile, having released devices like the ZMAX on the magenta network, but it’s rare that we see a high-end ZTE phone on T-Mo. That’s changing with the Axon Phone.
ZTE today officially introduced the Axon Phone, its new high-end Android device for the US market. It’ll launch on July 27 for $449.98 and it’ll be available from ZTE’s own website as well as Amazon, eBay, and Newegg. Here’s what you can expect to get in exchange for your hard-earned $450:
- 5.5-inch 2560×1440 display
- 2GHz octa-core Snapdragon 810 processor
- 16-megapixel rear camera with f/1.8 lens, second lens for refocusing after taking a photo or applying bokeh
- 8-megapixel front camera
- 32GB of storage (24.35GB available to the user)
- 4GB of RAM
- LTE bands 2/3/4/5/7/12/13/17/29/30
- Support for Hi-Fi audio with headphones, mono speaker at bottom of unit
- 3000mAh battery
- Android 5.1.1 with a “relatively light skin”
With LTE bands 2, 4, and 12, ZTE’s Axon Phone should play nicely with T-Mobile. ZTE has also said that the Axon Phone supports Voice over LTE, but the company isn’t able to confirm support for Wi-Fi calling.
ZTE has primarily been known for entry-level and mid-range phones in the past, but it appears to be working to shed that reputation with the Axon Phone, which is a new brand for the company. What do you think of the Axon Phone? Are you interested in picking one up when it launches later this month?

6 Questions with 2019 AUC Graduate, Dr. Arash Rahimi
What’s some advice you have for students pursuing their medical degree?
Start strong and don’t stop. It’s definitely an uphill marathon that doesn’t end but it’s rewarding all along the way. Medical school is very difficult — and to excel and succeed will consume your entire life. I learned to become extra efficient when working in order to maintain time for family and friends.
Any words of wisdom for those considering your chosen field of surgery?
General surgery is one of the most taxing residencies, but don’t be discouraged if you don’t have the highest board scores. Program directors are looking for individuals that are hard-working, moldable, persistent, have a strong foundation of knowledge, are humble, and can maintain a great attitude despite the stressors.
Did you have a favorite AUC course or a professor whose class you really enjoyed?
My favorite course was Pathology with Dr. Cecil Cone. I thought about pursuing pathology my entire medical school career and even obtained a competitive clerkship at Mt. Sinai in New York City during my fourth year. I was proud to leave a positive image of AUC for future students.
Did you always know that you wanted to be involved in medicine?
I always loved physics and found it fascinating. I studied civil engineering for two years before making the switch to medicine. I always knew I wanted to devote myself to changing lives and figured that medicine was the best way to do that. I also love physiology/science in general and knew I would enjoy the work.
What is campus life like at AUC? What stands out about your AUC classmates?
Sint Maarten is unbelievably beautiful and surprisingly modern. There are endless things to do with your free time: perfect beaches, sunset boat rides, swimming in crystal clear water, fishing, and plenty of beautiful sites to hike to. The island is a true French and Dutch experience with some incredible food. And, just like home, there are movie theaters, grocery stores, ACE hardware, ATMs—almost anything you need.
As for AUC students, they’re some of the coolest people I’ve ever met and several remain, to this day, some of my best friends. We all have such unique and interesting stories. Hanging out with them after an exam that we all spent weeks and weeks studying together for was so rewarding. Those were my favorite weekends: just enjoying the beach with my colleagues.
You’re currently in residency, how’s life now?
Life as a surgical resident, especially as an intern, consists mainly of two things: work and sleep! But all jokes aside, residency will be the toughest experience any medical graduate will face with many, many new responsibilities. But with new responsibility comes new friends, new adventures, and there really is still time to go out if you try — just don’t tell my program director.
Dr. Arash Rahimi is currently a general surgery resident at Danbury Hospital in Danbury, Connecticut.

We just returned from an open party 3-day trip. We headed down south to fish from the Kelp Paddys, excellent YT fishing. We didn't see any sign of Tuna there so we made our way West. We saw tons of fish, but only ended up landing 2 tuna. 1 120# BFT & 1 31# YFT. Beautiful weather and happy passengers the entire time. We tied up this morning at Fisherman's Landing with limits of YT, about 20 Dorado and the 2 Tuna. Great trip in the books.
Crew and passengers will post and provide images but back at the office Jen is the one who makes it all happen!

In the last forty-eight hours we’ve seen just how mischievous the media can be when they’re deprived of their regular feats of live-action.
Yesterday evening, we covered the fact that Pedro had been stitched up by the press – pedro-leaving-chelsea-this-summer-rumours-are-based-on-a-misinterpretation-of-an-interview-given – and, in stark contrast what had been printed previously, had not decided to leave Chelsea this summer.
Overnight, another story has broken whereby another Chelsea player, this time Tammy Abraham, has stepped forward quash press speculation that when it comes to contract talks, the striker is not seeking to become the highest-paid player at the club.
Abraham took to his Instagram account to announce, in response to the fact the above inference had been corrected by an unknown news source and as reported by The London Evening Standard
“Finally, some real news.”
In his first full season, in the first team, 22-year-old Abraham has done remarkably well netting on 15 occasions and also scoring his first international goal for England.
But, naturally, Abraham is aware of all the transfer speculation linking the club with the acquisition of another top-notch striker and, as you’d expect, simply wants confirmation as to his role at the club and is, therefore, playing his cards very close to his chest.
The young striker still has two years left on his current contract so there is no immediate rush to strike a new deal.
A season can, if it is a successful one, consist of 70+ games and as we’ve seen this season, injuries can strike, therefore the club, as Abraham probably appreciates, has to make provision for this.
I believe that after being so patient with the development of Abraham, sending the striker out on loan to Bristol City, Swansea and Aston Villa, Chelsea are not going to see the most promising young centre-forward they’ve had on their books for years leave.
Is that a view you concur with?
Please feel free to air your views in the comment facility beneath this article.

A kind and resourceful nanny in her time conquered the hearts of many movie lovers. English manners, speech, and methods of upbringing were inherited not by one generation and still help many mothers to find a common language with their children. The remarkable news for all fans of this film was that Mary Poppins in 2018 will return to the screen. I cannot believe that after all these years we will be able to follow the development of events in a typical English family and learn new and useful methods of upbringing.
For the first time, the world saw the story of the wise nurse Mary in 1964. Then the viewer was amazed by how harmoniously and quickly this lady joined the Banks family, and how she changed the foundations of the family. If you want to know all known information about the second part of the adventures of Mary Poppins and also the answer to the question: “When does Mary Poppins 2 – Mary Poppins Returns come out?” then watch the article below.
A team of real professionals is responsible for the entire process of creating the movie “Mary Poppins Returns”:
- Rob Marshall (director).
- John DeLuca (producer).
- Pamela L. Travers, David Magee (screenwriters).
- Dion Beebe (operator).
The company “Disney” in 2015 announced plans to shoot the sequel to the popular movie and immediately after the announcement began to realize its idea. It should be reminded that after the release of the original picture, it brought its creators more than $ 100 million. The authors of the continuation hope that their creation will collect more impressive sums and win the hearts of true connoisseurs of classical cinema.
When is Mary Poppins 2 – Mary Poppins Returns coming to theaters in 2018?
The movie will come out only in 2018.
The talented English writer Pamela Travers wrote a truly outstanding literary work. Thanks to an uncomplicated and at the same time fascinating plot, the screen version brought to the creators five Oscars and world recognition.
London. It is 1930. Great Depression. The plot of the announced film revolves around Michael and Jane Banks. Children grew up and got their own families, but still, cannot refuse support of their beloved nanny. Michael already has three children who like to have fun and “test” the nerves of parents. Life situations plunge Michael into constant trouble, anxiety and personal problems. Careful Englishwoman Mary Poppins will not stand idly and will try to help the former pupil. Children in no case should suffer because of the problems of adults.
The movie Mary Poppins 2 – Mary Poppins Returns trailer is available. You can watch it on the YouTube.
Surprisingly, the nanny does not change her views of life – she always looks perfect, adheres to classical views in upbringing and, of course, travels with a black umbrella. This method helps Mary to appear at the most unexpected moment and just when others are in desperate need of her help.
From the new film, the viewer will be able to learn for himself a lot of useful rules, without which it is impossible to grow up to be a good, successful and developed person. In addition, the history of an English family will be interesting not only to children but also to adults, because we are improving and educating a person throughout life.
- E. Blunt as Mary Poppins
- L.-M. Miranda as Jack
- D. V. Dyke as Mr. Dawes Jr
In the USA, Mary Poppins 2 movie release date in 2018 is scheduled for December 25.
The UK should wait for the movie until December 21, 2018.
Thank you for being with us!

A West Monroe Reunion!
Dan and Alli, our close friends from West Monroe, made plans to come and visit South America in late May – and we were super pumped to see them in our last stretch down here. They hoped to see some of Chile, head over to Mendoza, then fly out of Buenos Aires. These were places that we really wanted to experience as well. It had always been an understanding with them that we’d be able to spend any and all weekends with them, but in-between time would be TBD, based on the schedule at the Foundation. With Fair Trade Day behind us, it gave everyone a little time to breathe at Chol Chol. When we mentioned to Susana that Dan and Alli were coming down, she said, “You must not miss them!” so we were able to spend a week exploring Argentina with them in the second half of their trip!
It was definitely a flurry of fun travel and experiences. Brace yourselves, this is a long one.
First stop, Mendoza!
After we had an evening reunion with Dan and Alli over some wine at their hotel restaurant, we parted ways and made plans to meet in the morning for our early morning bus ride to our first destination, Mendoza.
The route itself seems pretty straight, but as you get closer to the Chile/Argentina border, you wind up through the Andes Mountains. We were able to book the first row on the top of the double decker bus, so the views were spectacular. We booked the first bus out, as we heard the line to cross the border can be horrendous (our Airbnb host in Mendoza said she once waited TWELVE hours!). It was the first border crossing we’ve done where Chile and Argentina are in the same building. All-in-all, we were through in under two hours, so that was a win!
Our Airbnb host picked the four of us up from the bus station in Mendoza and brought us to the house, which was in a small town outside of downtown Mendoza, closer to the wineries. She brought us by the downtown bakery and corner store to pick up some groceries for our stay, which was really nice. We headed back, made up a quick charcuterie board, and opened our first bottle of wine.
We relaxed, unpacked, hung out, and then made our way to dinner at our first parilla, or Argentinian steakhouse. It would be the first of many steaks consumed.
The next morning, I woke up to make some coffee and found that there were a bunch of tiny ants in the electric tea kettle. I brought it over to the sink to see if I could rinse them off, and I found a trail of them going over our charcuterie dishes into our bag of delicious baked goods — nooooooo! I broke the bad news the team and we told Laura, our host. That couldn’t squash our excitement (get it? I can’t say the same for the ants) for what we had planned for the day – exploring the famous Uco Valley!
Laura not only was an Airbnb host, but also a travel agent, really. She scheduled all of our winery visits and lunches for the weekend, it was great. She wasn’t able to drive us because of an emergency with another Airbnb resident, so her sister Marta drove us.
The first stop was Solo Contigo, and it was stunning. The valley had just experienced their first snowfall of the year, so the mountain range was so beautiful, it looked like a green screen. We toured around the property, which also served as the owners’ home, and sat in a very comfy couch area to sample the first of many Malbecs, along with a Cabernet Franc and some blends.
After the tasting, we headed over to our lunch spot, but not before we passed by a building with full floor-to-ceiling glass windows overlooking the vineyards, with exercise equipment inside. “It’s the gym,” said Marta. LOL. Maybe we’d successfully work out if that was our backdrop every day!
We arrived at Siete Fuegos, a restaurant by Francis Mallman. (If you haven’t watched the Chef’s Table on him, do yourself a favor and watch that right now. It’s incredible. Dan and Alli made fun of my enthusiasm for him. But he might be the most interesting man in the world.)
We walked in and were seated on the terrace. It couldn’t have been a nicer day – the perfect temperature, no wind, no bugs, and staring out at the beautiful mountain range while sipping splendid wine and amazing dishes.
It was really neat, the kitchen was really open and welcoming, and invited us to explore the grounds and watch them prepare and plate our food. The food was just divine – we all ordered something different so we could all sample each other’s plates. After dessert, we wandered around the property and took some photos in the vineyard. It may have been one of the best meal experiences I’ve had.
After lunch (which, by the time we finished, it was 5pm), we headed back to the Airbnb to nap and relax. We stopped by the bakery to get some homemade ravioli and decided to stay in for the night. Nick wasn’t feeling so great, I think he might have caught a stomach bug, so he was in bed for a while. We somehow didn’t realize that the boxes of ravioli were about 100 each (instead of 50), so we ended up making 200 ravioli for four people, haha. It was delicious.
The next day, we had hopes of going for a hike, but with Nick not feeling well and everyone a bit tired from the events of the past few days, we decided to sleep in a bit. I don’t think I’ve slept in since we’ve been here! It was a great feeling.
We had plans to go to a winery in Lujan de Cuyo (where we were staying) for lunch, and then do one more tasting in the afternoon before heading to downtown Mendoza. Laura had plans to drive, but was a little later than we had thought, because of the aforementioned other Airbnb guest. You could tell the tension was growing a bit, we were all packed and ready to try more wines. When we finally arrived, we opened the front door to ask her some logistical questions, and there was AN ADORABLE PUPPY IN THE FRONT SEAT! “I can drop her off at my mother’s if you don’t want her to come,” she explained. No, Laura, the puppy is coming with us. All moods were uplifted at the sight of Luna, the little stray puppy that Laura rescued.
We drove to the lunch spot, and the property was beautiful. It sat on a little pond with some willow trees. We opted for the wine pairing with a three-course lunch, and ate in a little wine cellar room. It was splendid. We got to try some Malbec Rose, among other types of wines. It was a nice, relaxing lunch. We wandered the grounds a bit to take some photos, then made our way to our last tasting.
All of the places we visited were not particularly busy, which was nice. It’s fall in South America, so all the leaves of the vines were turning red and yellow. It was really pretty as we drove along the sprawling vineyards.
Our last spot was Budeguer, which felt like a remote castle. We were greeted right away and guided on a wine tour throughout the facility. This particular winery drew inspiration from all parts of Argentina and included art from Argentinian artists, so it made me excited to experience Buenos Aires. We sat in the upstairs area and sampled a few of the wines. It was a really nice way to end our wine tasting adventures.
After the tasting, Laura dropped us off at our new Airbnb in downtown Mendoza. Since we had dinner reservations and an early morning flight, we decided to switch locales for easier logistics. Nick and Dan ran to a local wine store, and Alli and I enjoyed some rosé while we got our bags in order. We then headed to a dinner at 1884, another one of Francis Mallman’s restaurants. We just decided to go big with that in Mendoza! It was a little fancier than Siete Fuegos, but the menu was quite a bit more extensive. We enjoyed our final hurrah dinner in Mendoza with many steaks and of course, more wine.
Second Stop, Buenos Aires!
After a great couple days in Mendoza, we hopped on a quick flight to Buenos Aires where we checked into a nice Airbnb in the neighborhood of Palermo, where we’d be staying for three nights. Since there were no delays in any of the travels, we had some time at our apartment to relax and get unpacked before heading towards the center of town for a walking tour.
The “city center” tour that we did lasted about three hours and provided a great overview of the city and history. We’ve had pretty good luck with tour guides throughout South America and today was no different. On the tour, we visited the congress building, Plaza de Mayo, Palacio Barolo, Mothers of the May Square, the Pink Government House, and much more. It was interesting hearing about the history of Argentina from a local, especially since he had strong opinions of the past and current political climates. Also, the Argentine economy has had its rollercoaster run in the past years and he discussed this. For example, last year, $1 USD was 19 Argentine Pesos, but this year, $1 USD is up to 42 Argentine Pesos – so needless to say, the locals haven’t had a great economic run.
The tour ended downtown and so we opted to take the train back to our Airbnb. That was a mistake. It was rush hour, and we got on at the first stop. So while it was relatively easy to get on the train, the next 10 stops were just throngs of people trying to get on a very crowded train. Not fun. Anyways, this night the four of us actually split up, as it was Dan & Alli’s anniversary, so they wanted to do a little 1-on-1 dinner, which totally worked for us! Based on a recommendation from our W-Trek guide (his name was Santiago, if you recall), we went to La Bomba de Tiempo – a weekly Monday night show at a music hall which features percussionists and guest musicians. It was really awesome. We didn’t know what to expect, but we enjoyed the show for about 90 minutes before realizing how exhausted we were and heading back to get some sleep.
The next day was our big “experience” day. Sarah had found a Polo Lesson Experience outside the city that we signed up for. Yes, we’re talking polo as in riding horses and hitting a ball with a long mallet kind of thing. First of all, I’m not really great with horses – the whole riding an animal thing isn’t really my style, but I’m competitive and the whole polo thing had me all in. We got picked up by a gentleman named Ezekiel who drove us about an hour to an Estancia that had polo fields. First of all, if you were to describe what you thought a typical Argentine polo player looked like, I’d say it was Ezekiel. He was tall, longer hair, and wearing a long sleeve collared shirt. He was incredibly nice, and you could instantly tell that he could murder us on the polo field.
We arrived and we were quickly assigned horses and then walked around the property to get “comfortable” with the horse. After a short walk, we got onto the field and Ezekiel and his two playing partners started getting us to “gallop” up and down the field with our horses. At this point, you don’t have really any other choice than to just go all in and try to figure this out. So here I am, kicking the horse, and holding on (only one hand since you have to hold the mallet with the other hand), and it’s going pretty well. Well, we start doing some drills (e.g., just trying to “dribble” the ball down the field) and I’m having some fun. I felt like lacrosse and golf played a big role in being able to accomplish anything. The whole riding the horse was the x-factor, but my horse (named Red Bull), was good to me.
Now that we were all comfortable (side note: we weren’t comfortable haha), we played a game of boys vs. girls – where it was 2 pros with Sarah & Alli and 1 pro with Dan & me. Unfortunately, the girls won. Fortunately, it was an absolute blast. We played for about 30 minutes and it was just a really fun experience. By the end of it, you could barely hold the mallet anymore. Not that it was super heavy, but the grip strength just wore off. Also, riding a horse and trying to move fairly quickly definitely hurt your legs and butt. We were all so incredibly sore the next couple days as a result (honestly, I’m still sore and bruised a bit). Long story short – I couldn’t recommend this experience enough.
As if the day wasn’t fun enough already, we then had a great lunch at the Estancia – some more steaks for us. We got a tour of the grounds/property, which was really great. We were the only other tourists there (other than another couple taking some wedding pictures). The super bonus highlight? THERE WAS A CORGI ON THE PROPERTY THAT JUST LOVED US AND WANTED TO SPEND ALL AFTERNOON WITH US. Please see the photos below. Sarah and I tried to keep him.
The experience finally ended and Ezekiel drove us back to the city. We relaxed for a little bit before heading back out for TANGO NIGHT! We booked an Airbnb Experience with a local woman who gave us some Tango lessons for an hour in her studio. It was just the four of us in the class, so it was great to get some close attention. However, I was really bad, and it showed later. After the quick lesson, our host took us to a milonga (basically a bar where people dance Tango and other style dances) for us to try out our new moves. The place was really small, and the dance floor was tiny. So while we were taught to Tango in a pretty large room with no one else, us trying to dance in public resulted in barely being able to move which was a little difficult. We tried a few times, but then opted to watch the more experienced dancers. It was really crazy to see all the different moves up close. I liked this experience better because if felt authentic – as opposed to going to a Tango dinner show or something like that. I liked seeing everyone dressed like normal people and dancing all up close. At this point, it was about 1 a.m. so we went back and called it a (very long, but super fun) day.
The next day was our “play it by ear” day, as we just expected to walk around and visit various neighborhoods and locations within Buenos Aires. We found out that this day was a scheduled strike in the city by various union workers, so all the public transportation was shut down. So we opted for Ubers, lots of walking, and about 5 minutes of bike riding (well, for Sarah & Alli at least, as Dan & I couldn’t find available “divvy-like” bikes to use). We visited San Telmo neighborhood in the morning and grabbed a late breakfast. Then went to La Boca and enjoyed all the colorful scenery and houses. Enjoyed a quick churro/wine afternoon snack break, and then went to Recoleta Cemetery. This cemetery was similar to the one we saw in Punta Arenas, but much larger. We made a few more stops (old theatre converted into a book store, Bosque de Palermo park), before making our way towards dinner. Like any normal people, we had some time, so we opted to get some ice cream and beers before dinner (everyone loves a little ice cream app!).
We went to dinner at Don Julio Parrilla – another recommendation from several people as one of the best steak places in Buenos Aires. This was definitely more of a “white tablecloth” experience, but it had fantastic cuts of meat! Dan and I each had the tomahawk and it was delicious. Also, the mashed sweet potatoes stole the show a bit – it was like eating a tasty cloud. From there, we tried out two speakeasies, but you could tell that the last couple days were weighing on us all as we were exhausted. It had been a great couple of days.
The next day, we had an early pick-up and headed to the airport. It was there, that we had to say our goodbyes. Was sad, but we’re less than a month away, so we’ll see them soon. In other news, big “THANK YOU” to both Dan & Alli, who ended up taking our roller bags home with them. Given our time here, we have purchased a good amount of textiles from the Foundation (we’ve gotten orders from friends, family, and we’ve also bought some ourselves), and so we needed to make some room to bring stuff back. Dan & Alli taking items home will help us accomplish that feat. It was great seeing some of our West Monroe family in South America!
Third Stop, Iguazu Falls!
Heading to Iguazu Falls has always been on my bucket list. Knowing that we’d be in Chile for 6 months, it was a goal of mine to accomplish while we were completing our Fellowship. Given that we found ourselves in Buenos Aires later in a week, we felt that we could take on Iguazu Falls on the weekend and still get back to Temuco for work first thing on Monday! Therefore, instead of flying from Buenos Aires to Chile, we went up to Iguazu Falls and flew into the airport on the Argentine side (note: it’s way cheaper to fly inside the country than cross borders). We had a tour scheduled leaving from Brazil the next day, so once we landed, we got an airport transfer to take us over into Brazil. We hadn’t done much research on this process – and crossing borders are total hit or miss in South America. Luckily, this was a breeze! We didn’t even have to leave the car leaving Argentina (they had a drive-thru window!) and entering through Brazil took about 1 minute as there was no one else in line. It was awesome.
We got dropped off to our small apartment and IMMEDIATELY went to find our favorite Brazilian delicacy: ACAI BOWLS. There was one about a half a mile down the street and it was absolute heaven. Gosh, they are so good. From there, we just relaxed at our apartment, as it was raining, and then found a cute local place for dinner. Overall, a pretty laid back day of travel and getting settled.
The next day was our big day to see IGUAZU FALLS! So a little background – Iguazu Falls can be visited in Argentina and Brazil (just like Niagra Falls with US & Canada). We booked a full-day tour through Urban Adventures (thank you Mike, Alison, Megan, and Ryan for the gift!) which was to take us to see the falls from both sides. Our luck continued, and the tour (which was advertised to be up to as many as 12 people) was just Sarah and me. PRIVATE TOUR! We got picked up by our guide (named Lulu), and she first drove us over to Argentina to see the falls from that side.
We got to the park, and honestly, it had massive Disney vibes. Sarah and I didn’t do much research on the falls because we knew we had a full-day tour, but once we got there, it was like a very large park with lots of trails, activities, etc. to visit. We got to the park as it was opening (again, similar to Disney haha), and hopped on a small train that took us to the end of the park to visit “Devil’s Throat” – or a part of the falls that is very powerful and has lots of the falls culminating in a “small” corner. This blog is going to get really repetitive as I say over and over again that “it was awesome” – therefore, IWA now means, “it was awesome”.
From there, we went back into the park and hiked the upper trail to see many of the falls along the large stretch on the Argentine side. IWA. The trails weren’t that crowded since it was the off-season, and we got to do way more hiking than I thought we’d get to, which was a plus. Also, it’s very humid in this part of Brazil/Argentina (it is the jungle after all), but it was cool and not that humid, so the weather was really great. IWA.
After this, we elected to do an optional boat tour that took us onto the river and next to (and even under) the falls. This portion took about two hours – 30 minute drive to where you get into a boat, a 45 minute boat tour, and then another 30 minutes back. The boats were pretty standard looking, but had some powerful engines, which were quickly put to use as we headed up the river, fighting the rapids, towards the falls. The driver was great and got us really close to the action and we were all soaked. Luckily, they gave us dry sacks for our backpacks and extra clothes and what not. Sarah and I bought some cheap ponchos to help protect us a bit, but honestly, there wasn’t anything you could do to prevent getting soaked. IWA.
That was the extent of the Argentina side. So we quickly changed into dry clothes, and met back up with Lulu who was waiting for us after the 30-minute drive back from the boat. We did the hour drive to the Brazil side (crossing the super easy borders again). The Brazilian-side experience was much shorter than in Argentina, as there are fewer trails and walkways to complete. However, I must say that the views in Brazil are far superior. Even with a lot of mist, we were able to get some great panoramic views. Again, IWA. Also, from the Brazilian side, you can get closer to Devil’s Throat and go out on some walkways. While we thought that our only opportunity to get wet was on the boat tour, we were wrong, as we got totally soaked again by doing various walkways. It was all worth it. All in all, touring the falls from both sides WAS AWESOME!
Lulu dropped us back off at our apartment around 6 p.m. (a full 10+ hour day), so we relaxed before heading out to one final dinner of the trip. Since we were in Brazil, we had to stop by a churrascaria (Brazilian steakhouse), for a nice all-you-can-eat feast. Needless to say, health took a back seat this past week.
We woke up on Saturday and had a 4 p.m. flight leaving Iguazu (again, from the Argentina side). Since we had the morning open, I found a good local golf course for us to play, so we got in 18-holes before getting picked up and heading out on our 31-hour journey home. In getting home, our main goal was to make sure we were in Temuco by Monday to get back to work, but also save as much money as possible. Therefore, we had the following itinerary:
- 1-hour car transfer: Iguazu Falls (Brazil) to Iguazu Falls (Argentina)
- 2-hour flight: Iguazu Falls (Argentina) to Buenos Aires
- 2-hour flight: Buenos Aires to Mendoza
- Overnight Stay in Mendoza
- 8-hour bus: Mendoza to Santiago
- 2-hour flight: Santiago to Temuco
If you couldn’t tell from the post, we had a great final adventure in South America. It was great seeing friends, knocking off some much desired locations, and gearing up for the final push at the foundation. We’re ready to finish what we started!

Richard Marsh | 17 July 2018
Red Devils could welcome duo this summer
Coral have priced up Danny Rose and Willian at 7/4 apiece to join Manchester United.
The Red Devils are clear favourites to land Tottenham Hotspur left-back Rose, with Paris Saint-German next up at 7/2.
And Chelsea winger Willian is also 7/4 to head North after plenty of movement in his next club betting.
Barcelona remain the Evens favourites to pick up the Brazilian, while Manchester City are now 8/1 to make a surprise swoop for the midfielder.
Coral’s John Hill said: “Punters are still convinced that Willian will be a Manchester United player before the summer transfer window closes as they continue to back the Brazilian to move to Old Trafford, despite Barcelona being the favourites to land the player.”
“Danny Rose’s Tottenham career could be coming to an end this summer and it is Manchester United that punters feel will be his next destination as they top the betting ahead of PSG,” added Hill.
**Willian’s next club
Evs Barcelona, 7/4 Manchester United, 8/1 Manchester City, 10/1 PSG, 14/1 Inter Milan, 16/1 Real Madrid, AC Milan
**Danny Rose to sign for during the summer transfer window
7/4 Manchester United, 7/2 PSG, 4/1 Everton, 8/1 Manchester City, 16/1 Chelsea

Determining the gender of your child has never been easier! The pages of Ashley Spencer’s How to Conceive the Gender of Your Choice, will allow you to uncover the secrets of gender selection. The medical science contained within the ebook originates from a rediscovered lost seminar and has been compiled in such a way that it will effortlessly aid you in your quest of having the baby of your dreams.
Spencer’s game-changing method of predetermining the gender of the conception of your child boasts a staggering success rate of 94%! The fruit of extensive and meticulous research, this ebook is overloading with knowledge on gender predetermination. It’s also laid out for you in an easy to follow, hold-you-by-the-hand structure.
It includes everything from gender-specific diets, time frames to sexual positions to maximize the chances of conceiving the gender of your choice, ideal for parents wishing for a specific gender to complete their family. This guide also comes with an ironclad money-back guarantee, which safeguards your investment!
This simple yet effective method has even got doctors and medical professionals noticing. You’ll be amazed at how doctors and specialists praise the comprehensiveness of this ebook is in detailing all the factors and components needed for you to determine the baby of the gender of your choice.
Pick The Gender of Your Baby Review – Scam or Legit
It will definitely be worth your while to place a mere investment in the Pick the Gender of Your Baby, as customers are presented with a staggering 94.8% success rate. Three things that greatly affect gender determination are gender-specific diets, intercourse positions and timing your menstrual cycle. Those two reasons are: to help a couple to choose the gender of their next child and to help a woman to understand when she is likely to get pregnant.
Couples, especially the women, have to follow a strict dietary pattern specific to the preferred gender, as well as adopting the appropriate sexual positions. This process will test the couple’s devotion in determining the gender of their next child. However, the methods contained in How to Conceive the Gender of Your Choice is by no means impractical, it’s still very much doable and amazingly easy to follow.
As aforementioned, the three factors that greatly affect the outcome selection are; timing, diet, and sexual positioning.
‘Timing,’ refers to the different times in a woman cycle where it’s best to have sexual intercourse to favor the odds of having a specific gender. Complement that with gender-specific dietary patterns and sexual positions, you’re well on your way to having the baby of your dreams!
While it’s true that the system does not have a 100% success rate, it does boast a staggering 94.8 success rate, which is pretty amazing.
If you’re wondering why an effective selection method such as this isn’t more widely recognized by the general public, you’re not alone. Apparently, this is because this method falls under the category of an ‘alternative’ approach. The majority of doctors and health professionals scoff at the idea that an alternative method could actually be more effective than modern medicine.
And let’s not kid ourselves here, the health industry is worth trillions of dollars. There’s no way big pharmaceutical companies are going to let some low cost, natural approach get in the way of their profits.
Anyway, the bottom line is that this ebook delivers! It really does. So there’s really no point in spending $12,000 on IVF when you could just invest a fraction of that amount on this ebook and get the exact same results! It’s a no brainer.

We are grateful to the Rayne Foundation for awarding NAPA with a grant to extend the reach of our Helpline. The grant has enabled us to bring a dedicated Helpline manager to develop the service. We have set up a new FREEPHONE number and have extended the opening hours. Sylvia Cowleard joins us for 12 months as Helpline Manager, here she shares a bit about her background and her interest in activity, engagement and Helplines!
Thank you. It’s really great to be joining NAPA and I am really looking forward to working with the team. I’ll tell you a bit about my career, but I won’t go back too far, cos that’s so far back it might feel like a history lesson. Over the course of my career I have had many and varied positions, including working in education and Human Resources, it was called ‘Personnel’ back in my day. After being a family carer, I decided that I would like to move into the care sector. At first I was in HR dealing with all aspects from recruitment to training and development and everything in between. The least enjoyable part of my role was writing policies and procedure and it didn’t take me long to realise I was at my happiest when I was either delivering training or out on the floor coaching and mentoring the staff in care delivery and activity provision, working on the front line where the real work takes place. I also worked with managers to help them develop their skills to enable them to ‘lead’ people and ‘manage’ papers and finances. That’s a really important distinction to make. In 2004 I decided that I should follow my heart and leave behind the policies and procedures and devote my time to training and development, so I set up Beeches Training in 2004 and I am delighted to say we’re still providing training and development, care qualifications and help and guidance to the care sector with a focus on dementia. As well as travelling all over the country delivering training and qualification programmes, I’ve also run a support group with a colleague, for people with young onset dementia and their families providing support, but also a variety of activities for everyone to enjoy together. That was at St George’s Hospital in Tooting, London. I’m also working with musicians from Wigmore Hall running Music for Life sessions in care Homes, and for people with young onset dementia who may still be living in the community. It’s so important that young people don’t get forgotten. We even managed to run Music for Life sessions over Zoom, for people with young onset dementia and their family carer, which was a challenge. But it has been great fun and we’re amazed at what we’ve achieved, even writing a song and setting it to music! The sessions look very different, but the ethos is the same. Now it’s time for a new challenge with the Helpline.
Everybody, including families, carer workers, activity coordinators and even managers will at some point find themselves in a situation that they are not sure about. Having a dedicated helpline will enable those people to feel confident that there is some support for them. Working in the care sector can be stressful and emotional and it is really important that people don’t feel ‘alone’. Family carers are at even more risk of feeling isolated and not knowing who to turn to. We all need support especially when we give so much to supporting others.
My first priority is to ensure we have the ‘dreaded’ policies and procedures in place to provide a foundation on which we can build a Helpline that is supported by a professional, empathetic team who can provide free, independent and impartial advice and information about activity and engagement to anyone supporting a person requiring care.
Over the next twelve months I would like to see the Helpline providing a first class service to those who need it. I also want to be able to analyse the calls we get, to enable us to develop resources and training in response to identified needs.
I love sharing what I have learnt over the years from this work, but it’s just as important for me to hear other people sharing their experiences too. For me, it’s all about the outcomes, and by that I don’t mean the completion of the activity. When I’m training people I always tell them, ‘It’s the journey that is important, not the destination.’ By this I mean, it really doesn’t matter if a person cannot complete the entire activity, it’s how they are enjoying the process they are engaged in. This is particularly relevant to working with people with dementia of course, but I think it applies to everyone. In the mid-nineties I had an illness that left me with very little mobility and it was about four years from the start of the illness to me being about to walk unaided. During that time I learnt the hard way what happens to our body and our mind when we are not very active. The benefits of activity for us all are great, both physically and mentally. I enjoy the moment of success of another person. It is so satisfying when I have supported care teams and family carers to deliver personal care in a different way, so that it becomes an ‘activity’, or encouraged them to try something different and it works. The personal care becomes enjoyable for all, instead of tense and full of anxiety, or the person has been encouraged to walk a few extra steps every day and eventually they walk to the bathroom … or wherever … you know, it’s just seeing people succeed when they think they can’t do it. I remember supporting a gentlemen who could no longer tie his shoe laces and we worked together a little bit at a time, until eventually he did it. And that’s what he said to everyone he saw that day, “I did it!” His Mount Everest moment. That’s what I love about what I do.
I know some people won’t get this, but you know, I love my work. When I’m not answering calls on the Helpline I will be in the training room (when that’s allowed) or a Webinar, or creating something artistic with a musician and several people with young onset dementia. When I’m not working I enjoy my garden, especially when the weather is warm enough for me to use my hot tub. I love seeing my grandchildren and it has been really strange only being able to see them on the portal, but I have just recently had a visit from some of them. I also like taking my dog, Max, out for a walk, when allowed.
Thank you Sylvia and Good luck!

DC FanDome is going to be the biggest event in the history of the company, and it seems they now know one day can’t contain it.
Originally, Aug. 22 was going to be wall-to-wall DC madness, but it seems fans have asked for a bit of a breather. The Hall of Heroes (i.e. the movie panels and a few others) will take place on Aug. 22 as planned. All of the other events have now been pushed to Sept. 12 in a second DC FanDome event called “Explore the Multiverse.”
Here’s the trailer for the Hall of Heroes.
It looks as though we’ll be seeing a lot of videos and footage from the upcoming movies, including The Batman. We can’t wait!
As to splitting the event into two days, we’re for it. Having built our schedule recently, it was going to be difficult to cover movies and television all in one day and do justice to each panel. This will allow us to give each the focus they deserve.
DC FanDome kicks off on Aug. 22, be ready!

The Pinky Swear Foundation was selected our Outstanding Non-Profit for the month of September 2019. In a series of four articles, we found out who they are, how you can help, met some of their All-Star children, and learned how we can volunteer. We hope you continue to follow their mission and their events in the future. —EH Stafford, Managing Editor
Keeping the promise to help kids with cancer and their families.
The hardships inflicted on families because of childhood cancer are often not quantifiable. The financial burden of increased expenses, while income may be decreased – due to reduced work hours or even unpaid, extended leave – can seem overwhelming. The stress reliever of a weekend of family fun is immeasurable. A sigh of relief knowing that the mortgage is paid for the month is another. Pinky Swear Foundation’s financial assistance and family experience programs provide help to these families in need.
Since 2003, Pinky Swear Foundation has supported families’ quality-of-life with direct financial aid for basic needs, and through experiences that create emotional support, including:
- Stable housing: Rent and mortgage payments, necessary home repairs
- Reliable transportation: Car payments, insurance, repairs and gas cards
- Groceries: Healthy food on the table for kids and families
- Payments for bills: Utilities, childcare, and other unique family needs
- Memorable experiences through family getaways: Worry-free, quality time together out of the hospital
- Ability to stay with their sick child and reduce expenses: Convenient, stocked food pantries in hospitals
How you can support Pinky Swear
- Make a donation
- Host a food drive for our pantry
- Sponsor an All-Star Weekend of respite for a family.

If you’re hurt in a drunk driving accident, the driver and other parties may be liable for your injuries. There could be a number of other parties who hold liability for damages done in the wreck, depending on the circumstances of the case. If you were hurt in a DUI accident, consult a Des Moines personal injury attorney to find out who may be liable for your injuries.
Third parties who may hold DUI liability include:
- Restaurants, bars and establishments – If a restaurant, vendor or establishment knowingly serves alcohol to a visibly intoxicated person, they may be held liable for damages if a DUI accident occurs.
- Social or party hosts – If a drunken driving collision happens after the driver leaves a party or social gathering in which alcohol was provided, the host of that party or event may be held liable for injuries.
- Passengers in the vehicle – A passenger could hold DUI accident liability if he or she allowed another passenger to get in the vehicle while aware of the driver’s inebriated state.
- Police officers – In some instances, if a police officer allows a driver to continue driving while intoxicated, he or she may be considered liable.
- Taxi driver/company – If a cab or limo driver drops a noticeably intoxicated person off at his or her car, the driver or company could be held responsible in the event of a drunken driving accident.
If you were involved in a DUI accident, you may be due punitive damages in addition to the compensation you receive for your injuries and other damages. This is intended to punish the party responsible for your injuries and discourage such behavior in the future. Your lawyer can review your case to determine if you may be due these damages as well.
Learn more about car accident claims in our article The Legal Insider’s Guide to Iowa Car Accidents: 7 Secrets to Not Wreck Your Case. Call 1-(888) 435-9886 to speak to a Des Moines personal injury attorney at Walker, Billingsley & Bair about your case today.

In our last post we talked about using Multi-Category Security (MCS) instead of Multi-Level Security (MLS) to provide isolation on systems with different levels of sensitivity. In this post we'll cover creating a more secure pipeline via containers.
A common pattern in MLS environments is to have a series of processes to guarantee the flow of information between networks at different levels, but to guarantee that no information gets accidentally leaked. These pipelines are sometimes called dirty word filters.
Imagine an MLS environment, where you have two networks connected to a machine. One of the networks is at Top Secret and the other network is at Secret. Now you might have a process downloading content from the Top Secret Network, another process, the filter process, examining the downloaded content and moving approved data from the Top Secret content to the Secret content. Finally you have a third process that is taking the Secret content and sending it out the Secret network.
We want to make sure that the data only flows in this direction, and guarantees that the Secret Process could not just listen to content on the TopSecret network, or go and examine the TopSecret content itself. These systems are usually controlled with SELinux and MLS labeling.
The problem with SELinux and MLS in this environment is that the policy is difficult to write, and you can end up with lots of accidental Access Vector Cache (AVC) messages (SELinux messages) just because of normal process activity. For example, every process on a standard SELinux system can see each other. The Secret Process executing a ps command, would generate SELinux errors indicating it tried to examine the Top Secret Process.
Using Podman and Containers to improve the process.
If you combine Podman containers with SELinux you can make it a lot simpler to confine and control the information flow. You can also make it more secure by taking advantage of additional security features in containers.
Use Podman to put the Top Secret, Filter, and Secret processes each into separate containers. The processes within the container will no longer see the other processes on the system, as well as the processes in the other containers.
Each container gets its own networks, meaning that Top Secret will only see the Top Secret Network, and Secret will only see the Secret network. In the Filter container, eliminate all networking. Control data flow by making the Top Secret data writable from the Top Secret Container, but read only from the Filter Container. The Filter Container can write to the Secret Content, and the Secret Container can only read the secret content.
From an SELinux point of view we can actually have the processes inside of the container run with the same type, but then control the information flow just using the MLS or MCS Labels.
The third part of this series described using a tool like Podman to separate each of the processes in your pipeline, makes them more secure and easier to write, and maintains the trustworthiness of an SELinux/MLS Environment. In the last part of the container security series we will focus on network traffic control in Red Hat OpenShift.

Musculoskeletal pain is as common in pets as it is in people.
Most pets will be affected to some degree by the time they get old. Arthritis can be part of this. “Arthritis” means ‘inflammation of a joint’ – it can happen at any age, to any joint which is not functioning normally. The osteoarthritis which is more common in old age is often the result of years of wear & tear and there is a lot we can do to help.
We should not just assume that an animal is ‘just slowing down with age’ because they are a bit slower to get up in the morning, or lagging behind on walks. In many cases there are conditions which can be treated, improving quality of life and prolonging happy life. The old fear that ‘they’ll just want to put him down’ is very far from the truth these days – we can help!
The first and most important aspect is to establish accurately what is going on, when an animal is stiff or lame or slowing down. It is pointless and even dangerous treating for arthritis if your pet has an underlying illness which is affecting muscle or joint function, or perhaps a heart condition. Blood tests may be suggested. X-rays may be required to confirm a diagnosis of arthritis, but not in every case.
If arthritis is diagnosed, there are many things that can be done to help – in fact, we have more treatment options for pets than are available for humans! We will offer:
- dietary supplements to support joint health & function
- prescription diets (which do the same thing)
- arthritis injections (which also help joints heal)
- pain relief if required
- physical treatments (animal biomechanical treatment)
- exercise programs
- weight loss programs
- stem cell injections
…and sometimes, there are surgical options available. Most pets can be kept happy & comfortable for a long time in older age if conditions are picked up early, and managed appropriately. We can help!

At Raven wellness we approach the body with a holistic view point. This means that when the body shows pain or an injury we still assess the entire body to see where the dysfunctional pattern has started. Most often what the body shows is after many signals that something is wrong and it started somewhere completely different to the area of pain. Thats why we look at the entire body and and work with what we find after the initial assessment.
With the coaching we address all the other aspect of your life that are often usually a little more challenging to address and work with. Here we address health patterns and mindset, the way you form habits and the way you pattern your behaviours. Life coaching brings you to the next level of self growth, empowerment and self healing.

HLC III (Holistic Life Coach Level III)- C.H.E.K Institute
Visceral Manipulation Therapist VM1 - Barrell Institute
Are your organs talking to you? Are you forever seeing practitioners who never really get to the bottom of the problem or help you to truly heal. If this is the case then you may have some organ dysfunction. Visceral manipulation makes sure that the organs mobility and motility are working in alignment with you entire visceral system. As like muscles your organs get tired and tight and restricted and can cause an array of bio-mechanical issues. If you've been seeing one practitioner after the another with little or no relief then this may be the next step for you.

ArmInfo. Attempts to aggravate the situation in some schools in the Vayots-Dzor region are of concern. This is stated in a widespread statement by the Ministry of Education, Science, Culture and Sports, in connection with the strikes organized there today with the participation of schoolchildren and teachers opposing the implementation of the Amulsar mining project.
<Attempts to aggravate the situation in some schools of Vayots Dzor are considered alarming. Our student has already proved that he has sufficient will and ability to protect his rights and fight for them. Given this fact, we urge all adults to refrain from speculating in children's emotions, and not to use artificial methods to make independent decisions. Our goal is the formation of an independent and educated citizen, and it is desirable that the actions of all of us be aimed at serving this idea, without depreciating it>, the statement said.
At the same time, the report notes that the Ministry will examine all fixed cases and appropriate assessments will be given, and measures will be taken if necessary.
To note, today, residents of the city of Jermuk and the village of Gndevaz from the early morning of September 20 have been holding protests against the exploitation of the Amulsar gold mine. Opponents of mine exploitation are declared strikes. Dozens of students and a number of school teachers from the region joined the strikers.

English name: Chanard’s Mud Snake (aka “Sind River Snake”)
Scientific name: Enhydris chanardi
Thai name: งูสายรุ้งลายจั่นอาจ (Ngu Sai Rung Lai Chan-Ard)
Description: To 55cm long. A very short, thick water snake. Body is grayish-brown above with a pale stripe on the 3rd row of scales on each side and a row of small dark dots running just above it. Other rows of less distinct dark dots are found higher on the body. Underbelly is pale with a grayish zig-zag line on the edges. Head is broad and mottled yellow and grayish-brown.
Relevant scale counts: 21 midbody scale rows which remain 21 at the neck. Scales have no striations. Has two pairs of flared chin shields with with second pair equal or longer than the first. 116-125 ventral scales.
Similar Species: Jagor’s Water Snake lacks the pale stripe, has large dark blotches rather than small dark dots, a 1st pair of chin shields longer than the 2nd and 23-25 scale rows at the neck.
Mekong Mud Snake has striations on the scales and 2-3 longish chin shields with the first pair longer than the second when there are 2 pairs, as well as 136-153 ventral scales.
Rainbow Water Snake lacks the dark spots, often has additional light dorsolateral lines, has striations on the scales and 154+ ventrals.
Range: Recorded only in central Thailand from Bangkok area as well as Nakhon Nayok and Chantanburi provinces.
Habitat: This snake is found in freshwater bodies in the Chao Phraya drainage. Like other members of its family, it likely spends nearly all of its time in the water.
Place in the ecosystem: Living populations have not yet been studied, but it likely feeds on fish and frogs. Would be eaten by larger snakes, large fish, monitors, and wading birds.
Danger to humans: Is a rear-fanged snake like other members of its family, but is not dangerous to humans.
Conservation status and threats: This species was recently described from 15 museum specimens, all of which came from Metropolitan Bangkok or the surrounding area. The most recent of these records was about 20 years old. There are concerns that development in Bangkok may have destroyed much of its habitat and it may be extinct in Bangkok. The above photograph from Nakhon Nayok Province represents the most recently seen living specimen.
Interesting facts: New species are not always found out in the wild. This species was discovered in 2005 by two biologists who examined Jagor’s Water Snake specimens from many museums and discovered that a number of the records were actually mislabeled and represented a previously unknown species. The species was described from these museum specimens, the most recent of which was nearly twenty years old and some of which had been collected a hundred years earlier.
Unfortunately, the Chanard’s Mud Snake might be gone almost as soon as it was discovered. Nearly all of the museum specimens of the species come from Bangkok, which is a tough place for water snakes to live due to its high degree of development. It is possible that some Chanard’s Mud Snakes persist in Bangkok, but their status may be fragile. Hopefully the more rural surrounding provinces have enough of the species in less developed areas that it will be able to survive.

We Are The East Anglia Dragon Boat Race Champions
2nd September 2019
Netmatters Takes The Win!
It was a big day for Team Netmatters on Saturday.
After weeks of training at our office in Wymondham on a make-shift boat that is very much stuck on dry land, the time had come to compete in the annual East Anglian Dragon Boat Race taking place at Oulton Broad.
Sponsored by Warner Leisure Hotels, 18 teams from businesses across the region entered the race, all looking to get one thing – that famous Dragon Boat Race trophy!
The event is one of the largest water events in East Anglia with crowds in the thousands coming down to support the rowers. The event is important for its fundraising efforts for local charities such as RNLI Lowestoft Lifeboat, Caister Lifeboat, Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and Nelson’s Journey who all benefit from the money raised.
Following the success of our 2016 win, we were keen to try again so, we rounded up a team of 14 of our best rowers and began training for the big event. Twice a week, during lunch breaks and after work, we had intensive training sessions, getting us ready to take on the other teams and the water at Oulton Broad.
When the big day came around, we were ready. We put our best 10 men (and women!) into the boat and gave it our all. We started well in the first heat with a time of 53:79 – beating our closest rival by 3 seconds!
We remained on fire for the rest of the heats, coming first in each race with a time of 51.17 in the second heat and 51.94 in the third. Not bad at all hey? It spurred us on to deliver the same result in the semi-final.
We went into the semi-finals raring to go, with 9 teams, including us, itching to get to that final race, we knew we had to work hard to beat them. We dug deep and pushed forward, using all of our strength to get across that finish line first.
The hard work paid off and we were announced as finalists – we were so close to the win we could almost taste it. We didn’t let it deter us though and kept our competing heads on.
And The Winners Are...
As a result of our effective teamwork and competitive edge, we are thrilled to announce, we were crowned the CHAMPIONS of the event – something we are very proud of. We all received our medals and covered ourselves in champagne to celebrate! A great end to a great day.
Our director James said after the event: “We’ve had a great time going up against other local teams and everyone has done amazingly. I am proud of my Netmatters team, they continuously work together to drive results, in and out of work! Thank you Gable Events for having us and to everyone who came to support us”
If you are looking to be part of an award winning, motivated team, we are looking for people to join us! Get in touch with us below or call us today on 01603 515007 to discuss the roles we have available.

Supermarket chain Iceland has brought a touch of winter to the Christmas shop by launching a new concept - Shopping on Ice.
Bosses have transformed the supermarket aisles in their branch in Stratford into an ice rink.
They hired 12 rink experts to work through the night to refit the entire store with 250sq metres of synthetic ice.
A locker room area was also installed where shoppers were invited to swap their footwear for skates, allowing them to glide through the aisles picking up their messages for the festive period.
Iceland also decided to liven up the Christmas shopping period by providing 'penguins' for kids to use after a survey found nine in 10 children reckoned going round the festive stores was dull.
The instore skating trial passed the test of two professional skaters who took to the ice delighting shoppers with a performance.
Neil Hayes, marketing director at Iceland, said: "At Iceland we know Christmas is and exciting time, however it can be a struggle for lots of families as there’s so much to do.
"We wanted to add some magic to Christmas food shopping and the in store skating experience has certainly done that’.

"Vowel Movements" b/w "Blackest Beat" 7"
As necessary as the word "haunt" is for a band that dubs themselves "witch gaze," Is/Is, a trio hailing from Minneapolis/Portland, (Replacements country), really lay on the reverb. Following their four-song EP, This Happening, Is/Is are releasing a two-song 7," "Vowel Movements" b/w "Blackest Beat." Grunge/shoegaze fetishists should be very pleased. "Vowel Movements" has an air of swampy dread to it that's sort of stunning to listen to as the song plays with tempo, slowing up enough for singer/guitarist Sarah Rose to sing her piece, which she does with just enough snarl to detect attitude. It's hard to get around the fact that Rose and Co. sound dismayed, gorgeously pensive and just dark, which is probably the perfect mix of criteria for 90s alterna-pop.
The B-side, "Blackest Beat," doesn't necessarily deviate from "Vowel Movements"' tone, but the riff bears a more lighthearted swagger and their tempo shifts seem a tad more playful. I'm positive that this sounds great on a turntable, the undulating waves of guitar tones and Rose's voice, which sounds as constant as the air she expels.
Check out this video of their song "Eating Hourglasses" from their This Happening EP.
A note to the band: It's a shame you weren't the first to come up with "Vowel Movements."

Maria, Toni and I pushed past Mark into Toni’s place. A few months ago I met Toni. I liked her and she liked me. We started dating a few weeks ago and she introduced me to her friends. I like hanging out with Maria and Mark, but Toni’s house-mate surprised me.
Shelly and I had history. She was my first girlfriend in high-school. We were together for a year and during that time we had a lot of firsts as we fell in love. When it came to an end I was heartbroken.
My relationship with Toni was going nicely when she introduced me to Shelly. I hadn’t seen Shelly since we broke up and even though I liked Toni, I couldn’t stop some of the old feelings for Shelly returning.
I had never seen a dead body before. Shelly just lay there, unmoving and dead. I almost lost my balance and aimlessly stumbled towards the kitchen, using the bench for balance. Behind me I heard a noise coming down the hallway from the bathroom. It was Grant, and he held a blood stained rag. I put the pieces together.
My instincts kicked in. I grabbed a knife off the bench and thrust it into Grant’s chest. I felt powerless against my emotions, Grant stabbed Shelly and he had to pay. Blood rushed through my veins as I plunged the knife into Grant again and again.
Mark struggled to overpower me as I continued to stab Grant, not even Mark was going to stop me making Grant pay for what he did to Shelly. Mark finally managed to restrain me against a wall. I continued to struggle, but went nowhere.
As I started to calm down Mark loosened his hold over me. I wrestled free and ran. Straight past Shelly, out the open door and past Maria. I had to get out…

In an effort to avoid a ban in the U.S., popular social video platform TikTok aims to partner with cloud services company Oracle. TikTok parent ByteDance proposed a deal in which Oracle would serve as tech provider in the U.S., although details have not been revealed regarding any potential changes to TikTok’s ownership structure. ByteDance submitted the proposal to the U.S. Treasury Department and Secretary Steve Mnuchin announced plans to review it this week with a particular emphasis on security issues. If approved, the deal could make Oracle a major advertising player that is more relevant to younger audiences.
Expressing national security concerns, among other issues related to ongoing China-U.S. tensions, the Trump administration gave ByteDance an ultimatum to sell TikTok to a U.S. company or face the app being banned. Last month, TikTok’s new CEO Kevin Mayer resigned, citing the evolving “political environment” — and then this past weekend, ByteDance rejected a bid by Microsoft, which had recently teamed with Walmart on a proposal.
Rather than accepting Microsoft and Walmart’s offer, the proposed plan would have Oracle hold a stake in TikTok. The partnership would also make the U.S. tech giant the “trusted technology partner” for the app’s user data here in the U.S., a move intended to satisfy the Trump administration’s concerns. According to sources, the deal would address data security issues but would still require approval by the White House and Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS).
“If approved by the U.S. and Chinese authorities,” suggests Engadget, “the months-long hand-wringing over the app, which highlights teenagers dancing to songs, may be over.”
Oracle provides infrastructure to government agencies such as the CIA, NSA, and Naval and Air Force intelligence. “Oracle’s close ties with the U.S.,” as well as co-founder Larry Ellison’s relationship with President Trump, “will likely mean that there’s a higher chance of approval.”
Secretary Mnuchin said the U.S. will review the proposal this week. “I will just say from our standpoint, we’ll need to make sure that the code is, one, secure, Americans’ data is secure, that the phones are secure and we’ll be looking to have discussions with Oracle over the next few days with our technical teams,” he told CNBC.
TikTok currently has more than 100 million users in the U.S. and has expanded 800 percent in the last two years.
This story is expected to evolve over the next day. ETCentric will have additional details tomorrow.

Some folks switch their diets as often as they change their clothes – but diets aren’t always simply fads that come and go within a few months. Some diets have actually become so popular that they have helped to define entire years and even decades! You’ll almost certainly remember the meat-and-butter-packed Atkins diet or the trendy South Beach Diet of the early 2000s.
With that said, let’s take a closer look at the most popular diets of the 2010s. Do you think that any of them will make their way into the 2020s like Lucky Nugget Online Casino and our fantastic casino games did?
The Grapefruit Diet
The Grapefruit Diet was a very popular option back in the 90s, and it even made its way into the 10s later down the line. This diet, like others such as the Cabbage Soup Diet, followed a similar premise: eat low-calorie foods and you will lose weight. Such diets often include an average of 500-800 calories a day, which unfortunately meant that people’s bodies literally began to starve on them. They fell out of popularity when it became known that such a low calorie intake could harm your metabolism in the long run.
The Alkaline Diet
Remember when people were obsessed with reducing the pH of their bodies in a bid to shed extra pounds? Celebrities like Gwyneth Paltrow loved the Alkaline Diet, which included alkaline foods like fruits, vegetables, nuts, legumes, seeds and grains. ‘Acidic’ foods like alcohol, dairy, bread, pasta and meat were a no-no for those following this eating plan.
Atkins and South Beach
The Atkins and South Beach Diets both maintained that cutting carbohydrates like pasta, rice and bread out of your menu would help you to slim down. Some people, particularly those with insulin resistance and type II diabetes, still swear by them today.
The Mediterranean Diet
The Mediterranean Diet is no fad! Doctors across the globe still maintain that this is one of the best eating styles for your health. The diet encourages you to eat fresh veggies, fish and poultry, legumes, nuts, seeds, olive oil, and the occasional glass of red wine.
The Macrobiotic Diet
Madonna’s legendary Macrobiotic Diet mandated cutting out red meat, poultry, eggs, dairy and anything made of wheat. It replaces those foods with tofu, tempeh, sea vegetables, and copious portions of steamed veggies.
Between 2010 and 2016, people went mad for gluten-free alternatives to traditional wheat-containing foods. Classic breads, pastas and flour products were replaced with alternatives that contained no gluten, which was said to cause systemic inflammation and gut issues. ‘Gluten sensitivity’ also became a major buzzword during this time.
Weight Watchers and Jenny Craig
Oprah sang Weight Watchers’ praises back in the day, while Kirstie Alley swore by the Jenny Craig diet. Both plans offered numerous tools to assist with weight loss, like meetings, point systems, food delivery, recipes, consultations and special low-calorie products. One of the biggest downsides – aside from the cost – was that these programs did not teach you how to make your own healthy dishes, meaning that many people picked up weight after stopping them.
Paleo and Keto
Paleo was all the rage in 2013, the year in which it was the most-Googled diet keyword. Also known as the Caveman Diet, it requires dieters to eat foods that were probably available during the Paleolithic era. This includes fish, eggs, red meat, fruits, vegetables, herbs, nuts, seeds, and healthy fat sources – all free range and grass fed, of course.
Keto came as a spin-off of the Paleo diet, and is still very popular today. The ketogenic diet mandates high protein, high fat, low carbohydrate eating that relies mainly on animal products. Even veggies are a no-go in many cases on this diet. Popularised by Kourtney Kardashian and the likes, the Keto diet aims to lower your carb intake to 30g a day, which will put your body into ketosis or ‘fat burning mode’.
Vegan and Whole Food Plant Based
A diet free of animal products is not new by any means, but it has seen a recent surge in popularity. 2019 was dubbed the ‘year of the vegan’ as more and more folks chose sustainable, plant-based foods to address issues like animal cruelty, climate change and health issues.
Whole Food Plant-Based or WFPB is a branch of veganism that allows dieters to only eat whole, unprocessed foods from plant origins. It offers creative substitutes for animal/processed products, like cream cheese made of soaked cashews and pizza bases made of cauliflower and ground macadamias.

The state of California surpassed 75,000 jobs in the solar sector last year, growing 38 percent over the previous year and dramatically exceeding all other states in the country.
According to The Solar Foundation’s 2015 State Census, released today, California has five times more solar jobs than Massachusetts, the second-ranked state for solar employment, with 15,095 jobs.
Nevada ranked third with 8,285 jobs, up from 5,900 jobs in 2014.
The U.S. solar industry has been growing dramatically in all corners of the country, according to Andrea Luecke, president and executive director of The Solar Foundation. Since 2012, more than half of all U.S. states have at least doubled their solar workforce. And since the last survey, 15 states saw their solar job numbers grow by more than 30 percent.
The census measured changes between November 2014 and November 2015. This year, researchers collected data from more than 19,000 companies and received fully completed surveys from more than 2,300 companies.
Rhode Island emerged as the biggest job creator based on percentage increase, adding 600 jobs to its nascent solar market over the year. South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Florida, Nebraska and Mississippi also saw strong job growth.
“For a technology that makes up only 1 percent of our energy mix, I think it’s astounding that one out of every 83 jobs created in the U.S. is in the solar industry,” said Luecke.
But as the U.S. solar market matures and policies change, there’s bound to be some regional job shuffling -- and there could be some significant job losses.
The census showed that Arizona, for instance, lost jobs over the year-long study period, falling from 9,170 positions to 6,922. As a result, Arizona dropped from the third-best state for solar jobs to the seventh.
Arizona still ranks among the top states in terms of overall solar capacity, but new capacity additions have slowed as utilities approach their renewable energy targets amid ongoing policy uncertainty in the residential solar sector.
In late 2014, the municipal utility Salt River Project imposed new fees on solar customers that drastically reduced the number of systems installed in the utility’s territory. Other regulated utilities in the state are now seeking to add new solar charges or at least reduce compensation for net-metered systems. GTM Research expects the market to flatline if new fees are implemented.
Recent policy changes in Nevada are expected to have a similar chilling effect.
Nevada rocketed up the job ranks in 2015, climbing from the seventh-best state for solar jobs to third. Then last month, the state's Public Utilities Commission implemented a decision to lower the net-metering credit and add new fixed fees on rooftop solar customers. Nevada is now expected to miss its projected 18 percent job growth rate for 2016.
Nevada job controversy
Shortly after the policy change came into effect in Nevada, SolarCity, Sunrun and Vivint announced they would have to shut down operations in the state. Several local installers also announced layoffs, resulting in hundreds of job losses overall.
SolarCity alone cut 550 jobs and shuttered its new training center. The very people who had been trained at the center were hired to dismantle it days later, according to Chandler Sherman, public affairs manager for SolarCity.
Anne-Marie Cuneo, director of regulatory operations at the Nevada PUC, said in a recent local television interview that the job loss “breaks my heart.” But the solar jobs issue isn’t cut and dried, she added.
According to Cuneo, PUC staff asked intervening solar companies to release their Nevada-specific employment data during the net-metering proceeding in order to inform their policy. However, the solar companies objected, claiming “it wasn’t pertinent to the case.”
Cuneo also challenged the widely reported figure that Nevada has nearly 6,000 solar jobs, which refers to the 5,900 jobs reported in The Solar Foundations’s 2014 State Census. Cuneo said the study used a very broad definition for “solar job” that included even her own position among the tally.
Luecke explained that the jobs census includes five categories: installers, manufacturers, sales and distribution, project development and construction and “other.” Jobs counted in the "other" category include people working in finance, law, the nonprofit sector and government who have stated that they spend at least 50 percent of their work hours on solar.
The methodology itself is modeled after the Bureau of Labor Statistics' employment tallying practices, with additional input from the Department of Energy, and was validated by Cornell University.
While there may be some debate around the exact numbers, hundreds of solar workers in Nevada have still lost their jobs. They can be seen protesting, and many are now backing a referendum to restore the original net-metering rules.
Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval said he would set up a “rapid response program” to help solar workers find new jobs. Sherman of SolarCity said it is a nice gesture, “but what would have been better would have been to allow them to keep their jobs in a really successful industry.”
Recent experiences demonstrate how much solar companies rely on strong pro-solar state policies, said Luecke. But they’re also adaptable. In Arizona, with some of the policy uncertainty now “baked in,” Luecke said solar installers expect to return to growth this year.
The California market will also continue to charge ahead, with 19 percent job growth expected in 2016. The recent NEM 2.0 decision is expected to bolster growth in the rooftop solar sector.
There have also been big policy wins on the national level, including the extension of the federal Investment Tax Credit. Dan Shugar, CEO and founder of NEXTracker, said the progressive shift away from coal spearheaded by the Sierra Club and others has also created an enormous amount of space for the solar sector to grow as coal is replaced.
“This shift is huge; it’s tectonic,” he said.
NEXTracker is currently seeing exponential growth, Shugar added. Six months ago, the company was shipping 15 megawatts of product per week, and today it’s shipping more than 110 megawatts per week. The growth stems in large part from a merger last year with Flextronics, which has been a net benefit to the U.S. job market. Since November 2014, NEXTracker’s U.S. team has tripled from roughly 50 to 150 employees.
A national version of the solar jobs census released last month found that overall solar employment numbers had grown 20 percent year over year. The solar industry now has more than 208,000 employees, surpassing the total number of jobs in gas and oil extraction.
National solar job growth is expected to increase 14.6 percent in 2016.

A German expat herself, she discovered that available language classes were not meeting expats’ needs, because they are too focused on grammar and theoretical knowledge without teaching the vocabulary needed in daily life. As she’d been looking for another challenge, she decided to start Hungarian For Expats.
Together with a Hungarian teacher, she prepares the material for the modules which combine three features. First, each module focuses on a single theme, such as Food, Socializing, or Health. Second, each module defines a list of common words relevant to this theme, which students then learn through stories and interactive exercises. Finally, every module concludes with a real life practice where students apply their newfound knowledge.
The model works: What Mechthild loves most is to hear students’ stories about positive interactions with Hungarians.
1. When did you arrive in Hungary and what brought you here?
I arrived here two years ago, in summer 2017 as an expat spouse. I loved the city from the first moment, but not speaking the local language felt overwhelming.
2. Have you ever been an expatriate elsewhere?
Yes, I lived as an expat in Belgium and the US.
3. What surprised you most about Hungary?
I was quite surprised about how much Hungarians help each other out. Just the other day I was stopped twice in the street. Once, a lady stopped her car to offer me a ride up the hill, because it was too warm. Later the same day, another lady stopped and offered me a lift down the street, because it was raining.
4. Friends are in for a weekend - what must they absolutely see and do?
Cross one of the Duna bridges to enjoy the wonderful view, if possible by night. I would also take them to a cake shop or let them taste my own túró gomboc (cottage cheese desert).
5. What is your favourite Hungarian food?
I really like lecso, a kind of ratatouille with green peppers, especially if cooked over the fire.
6. What is never missing from your refrigerator?
Mustard and nail polish.
7. What is your favourite Hungarian word?
I love of the words that have a lot of "e"s in them, such as remélem (I hope) or egyetem (university). My favorite is “következik”, which means “comes next”. I find it funny that there is a proper word for this.
8. What do you miss the most from home?
If by home you mean Germany, where I haven’t lived for 16 years, it would be my parents.
9. What career other than yours would you love to pursue?
I find programming pretty fascinating. But I am sure that I would miss social interactions pretty quickly.
10. What's a job you would definitely never want?
To work as a cashier or in a factory line.
11. Where did you spend your last vacation?
At Lake Tisza. It is a beautiful nature reserve and a great place to bike. For me, it was also good to practice Hungarian. I remember buying bread from a mobile bakery that drove around town every day, just like the Tesco delivery cars. The quality of the bread was ok (yes, German people are bread snobs ;-) ), but I felt good for talking to the driver in his language.
12. Where do you hope to spend your next one?
In Transylvania. That’s a place that I would never go to from Germany, simply because it is too far. Several people recommended it strongly, especially for its scenic landscapes.
13. What was your favourite band, film, or hobby as a teen?
I really liked Nirvana and Bon Jovi.
14. Apart of temptation what can't you resist?
I can’t put down a really good book - my self-discipline simply goes down the drain. There have been evenings where I switched off the light, then got up again, read some pages, went back to bed, just to get up to continue reading.
15. Red wine or white?
As long as it is high quality, definitely red. I have tasted wonderful wines in Hungary.
16. Book or movie?
17. Morning person or night person?
Morning, unless you wake me up at 5am.
18. Which social issue do you feel most strongly about?
Climate change, because it affects all aspects of our lives and will distort whole communities.
19. Buda side or Pest side?
Buda for living, Pest for going out.
20. What would you say is your personal motto?
I have two:
1) Be the change you want to see in the world
2) You can’t fail if you don’t try.
That’s why I started my business and encourage other women to do so as well!

On your next trip to Burkina Faso’s capital make sure you consider our Ouagadougou car hire services when it comes to your personal transportation needs. The city is also referred to as Ouaga – pronounced “Wa-Gha” – it’s situated in the area known as the Mossi Plateau right in the center of the country.
The city is served by Ouagadougou Airport which as opposed to most other capital cities in the world is not at the edge or beyond the city’s limits it’s actually situated in the city center. Taxis are the way to travel around this city and many of them will be available at the airport however your best choice by far would be to employ our Ouagadougou car rental services and have a car ready for you at the airport so that you can drive yourself to your destination as soon as possible.
The capital features wide tree-lined boulevards and quite a few interesting sights such as the National Museum of Arts and Craft, the Nouveau Grand Marche and the Moro Naba Palace.
The Nazinga wildlife reserve is worth spending a couple of days at as you will get to see a lot of wildlife in its natural habitat and everything ranging from antelope to vultures. The reserve is situated at a five hour drive from Ouaga and as such having your own car would prove to be very useful.
The city offers many possibilities to experience its particular vibe and atmosphere first hand, such as the Moro Naaba ceremony which takes place every Friday morning at a quarter past seven in the morning. It is a fifteen minute ceremony which symbolizes a historical event.
One important place to consider visiting is the Village Artisanal of Ouagadougou which is a sort of a shopping mall for local arts and crafts. This is a place where you can shop for a wide array of local artifacts with considerably less hassle than if you were doing it on the street.
These are some of the main things that you can expect to see with the help of our Ouagadougou car hire services on your trip to Burkina Faso.

Citing a Washington Post article about COIN operations in Salinas, CA
The Salinas COIN operation is largely a response to Mexican drug gangs:
The gang problem dates back decades in Salinas, headquarters of the northern California network known as La Familia or Norteños. Organized in regiments, the gang operates more coherently in Salinas than its rival, the Mexican Mafia based in Southern California, according to Sgt. Mark Lazzarini, a Salinas police officer. He briefed the Monterey contingent and calls it a "godsend.".
For nearly two generations now, American polity has been a response to the 1960's. Proponents of the Afghan and Iraq war are largely persons who believe that Vietnam could have been won; while opponents are largely persons who instead believe it should not have been fought. Music, sex, drugs, religion, civil rights - you name it - positions today largely reflect positions adopted back in the 1960's.
This framework - the entire debate on both sides - poorly fits today's world. It has become a cliche - quite frankly a bore.
Mexico simply does not fit into this over-worn 1960's dichotomy. It was not part of that debate; and you simply cannot fit it into any hippie vs. redneck refrain.
And Mexico has its own dynamic. This dynamic is flowing into Salinas, right now, as Lind describes. It is flowing into Europe, as so many posts on this blog have described. It poses a challenge the 1960's framework cannot account for and which we can no longer ignore. The results will be chaotic - hopefully exciting, potentially disruptive, perhaps violent, but certainly not boring.

Don’t expect romance or eloquence from David Michôd’s new film “The King”, which is released in South Korea this week before its upcoming online release on November 1st. This is a solemn and brooding reinterpretation of a series of plays by William Shakespeare including “Henry V”, so you may be disappointed with a number of notable changes in the film, but, at least, it is not wholly without interest thanks to the good efforts from its main cast members.
After the opening scene showing the grim and bleak aftermath of a battle, the movie immediately thrusts us into the problematic political situation surrounding King Henry IV of England (Ben Mendelsohn). It is around the early 15th century, and his country has been suffering from civil wars while the military conflict with France is still being continued, but he is not that willing to solve this complicated circumstance as his body keeps getting deteriorated due to serious illness, even when one of his followers throws a blatant comment on how he lets things get worse day by day without doing anything at all.
More aware of his impending death, Henry IV calls for his eldest son Prince Hal (Timothée Chalamet), who has been spending time with lowlife bums in one of the seediest areas of London since he became quite estranged from his father some time ago. Although he is not that willing to meet his father again, he eventually comes to the court as advised by his loyal drinking buddy Falstaff (Joel Edgerton), but he is only told that his younger brother will succeed his father instead of him.
Prince Hal is not so upset by his father’s decision, and he instantly goes back to his usual days of drinking and other debaucheries, but then a series of unexpected incidents push him toward the position he never wanted from the beginning. After his younger brother dies due to another civil war, he finds himself next in line for the crown again, and then he gets a sort of closure between him and his father right before his father’s death, which promptly leads to his ascension to the throne.
Once he officially becomes King Henry V of England, Prince Hal goes all the way for distancing himself from his former self, and he also tries to bring some changes into his exhausted country with the assistance of his advisor William Gascoigne (Sean Harris), but he cannot help but feel self-doubt and uncertainty at times. As his younger sister, who is incidentally the Queen of Denmark, shrewdly points out to him during their little private moment, being a king is a lonely and risky business because there is not anyone to be wholly trusted in court, and the situation between England and France becomes more tense especially after a rather insulting gift is sent to him.
Although the king wants to do as little as possible on this increasingly troublesome political matter, there eventually comes a point where he eventually decides that enough is enough. With the full support from Gascoigne and other lords, he boldly embarks on the battle with France, and he also appoints Falstaff as his commander-in-chief because he knows there is a wise and seasoned war veteran behind Falstaff’s seemingly seedy appearance.
During the following battle sequences, the movie curiously sticks to its restrained tone as before. In case of the first battle sequence, it is more or less than a long, arduous waiting game while lots of fireballs are periodically hurled toward a castle, and how this situation is resolved in the end may be a bit too anti-climactic for you. In case of the supposedly climactic sequence unfolded in Agincourt, the movie closely looks at all those grisly and grimy details of soldiers fighting to death on a muddy field, and that is certainly far different from what we saw from Laurence Olivier’s “Henry V” (1944) or Kenneth Branagh’s 1989 film of the same name.
Although the movie often trudges during its second half, it is mostly held together well together by the strong lead performance from Timothée Chalamet, who feels quite different from his Oscar-nominated turn in “Call Me by Your Name” (2017). While initially looking casual and youthful as required, Chalamet is believable in his character’s subsequent transformation along the plot, and he also handles well a crucial scene where his character has to galvanize the army before their big battle, though it is a bit of shame that he is not allowed to deliver something as rousing as that famous speech in Shakespeare’s aforementioned play.
The other notable main cast members did an adequate job of filling their respective supporting roles. While Joel Edgerton, who wrote the screenplay with Michôd, has a little juicy fun with playing one of the most memorable characters created by Shakespeare, Sean Harris and Ben Mendelsohn are dependable as usual, and, as an arrogant French prince, Robert Pattinson gleefully chews his scenes with a deliberately ridiculous Gallic accent. Although she only briefly appears in two scenes, Thomasin McKenzie, who was unforgettable in Debra Granik’s “Leave No Trace” (2018), leaves considerable impression, and the same thing can be said about Lily-Rose Depp, who holds her small place well during her few moments with Chalamet.
While it is not entirely successful in its reinterpretation attempt on Shakespeare’s plays, “The King” is a fairly competent period drama on the whole, and I enjoyed its mood and performance to some degree although I felt impatient with its rather ponderous narrative pacing from time to time. I am glad to watch it at a movie theater instead of watching it at my home later, but I will not urge you to watch it right now.

Several millennia of further development meant that all associated processes for more hair growth are available independently and must be initiated simply.

For which customers is FreshDepil not the ideal decision?
After all, it is undeniable that any woman FreshDepil optimize hair growth can get results faster by taking FreshDepil.
But as long as you think that you can only consume one tablet and change all your difficulties in a short time, you should look at your point of view again.

Thus, you must take into account that you FreshDepil only from trusted traders - for this purpose, follow our service - to prevent imitations (fakes). A fake product, just in case a seemingly favorable cost factor may attract you, usually has little effect and can be in the worst case with an uncertain outcome.
Let's take a look at the content of the supplement
If you look at the ingredients of FreshDepil on the label, the following components are particularly striking:
In fact, it is useless, in the unlikely event that, for example, such an agent of that product group contains a suitable ingredient but that is far too low a dose.
Everything is in the current state of the product in the good segment - in this moment you can hardly go wrong in the progress and order carefree.
Anyone can use it easily
Here is a simple theorem: Follow the instructions of the manufacturer to.
You do not need to get any ideas about the reaction in advance.
Thereupon it wants to be clearly and unequivocally stated that the mentioned product can easily be integrated into the daily routine.
This is confirmed by customer reports from many consumers.
A wide range of guidelines for the right application, maximum quantity and potency as well as other specifications for the product are included in the packaging and can even be viewed online.
Can we expect progress soon?
Hundreds of users say you've seen a tremendous improvement the first time you use it. It often happens that already after a few weeks already successful success stories can be booked.

Many of the users use the product for this reason again and again after many years!
It therefore seems to be an advantage to use the product for a while and to persevere in spite of individual communications attesting to rapid results. Also contact our support for more information.
Reviews of FreshDepil analyzed
To say without a doubt that the impact of FreshDepil actually good, it does not hurt to look at experiences from forums and reviews from others. Research results can never actually be used as a help, because in principle they are only used with prescription Remedies made.
By researching the before-and-after comparisons, consumer opinions and reports, I was able to deal with how effective FreshDepil in practice:
FreshDepil ensures pleasing results
The current experiences with FreshDepil are surprisingly completely satisfactory. We have been controlling the market for these items in the form of tablets, balm and other aids for years, have already obtained a lot of advice and also tried it out for themselves. As satisfying as FreshDepil, however, experiments are hardly over.
It is by no means only useful in increasing hair growth, but is just as convenient to use
The product - our final conclusion
On the one hand, the manufacturer's claimed successes and careful composition deserve recognition. Those who can not be converted by themselves can instead listen to the high number of satisfied users who speak for themselves.
Finally, one may conclude: The product keeps the promises made in every way, so that the test is definitely worthwhile.
So if you are interested in them, FreshDepil would FreshDepil be recommended. However, one thing is important at all times: Order the product directly on the original manufacturer's site each time.
It is never clear what you get from unverified providers.
Particularly noteworthy in this is the great trump card of the easy-to-use application that only costs you a few minutes.
An experiment is undoubtedly a good idea. I was allowed to try out enough hair growth products to say that FreshDepil to be a surprising special case.
The following are typical typical mistakes that you should under no circumstances repeat:
Definitely a bad idea is the way to use dodgy third party instead of the original manufacturer's side of this product.
With these platforms, there is a risk of acquiring imitations that are probably ineffective and, in the most critical scenario, have a negative impact. This makes it noticeably more powerful compared to Titan Gel . In addition, users are lured with great promises, but eventually you are still pulled over the table.
Therefore, our advice: In the event that you order the product, you do so exclusively through the authorized online retail of a verified supplier.
Based on thorough research on other offers has emerged: Only with the recommended online retailer here you can be sure that you acquire the original.
How do you find the current bid prices?
Now let go of daring research attempts, with which you will nevertheless buy a counterfeit at the end, by clicking on one of the links checked by our team here. These offers are checked cyclically, so that price, conditions and delivery are always the best.

It may be the most popular browser in the world, but even some at Microsoft still hate Internet Explorer.
The name, that is. According to an "Ask Me Anything" session on Reddit, members of the Internet Explorer development team debated renaming the venerable browser, presumably in an effort to eliminate any distaste from the software's earliest days.
"It's been suggested internally; I remember a particularly long email thread where numerous people were passionately debating it," Microsoft's Jonathan Sampson, wrote. "Plenty of ideas get kicked around about how we can separate ourselves from negative perceptions that no longer reflect our product today."
"The discussion I recall seeing was a very recent one (just a few weeks ago)," Sampson added. "Who knows what the future holds :)"
For the last few years, Microsoft has tried to separate the modern version of Internet Explorer from its legacy: a relatively slow, insecure browser saddled with proprietary features.
According to Net Applications, Internet Explorer as a whole commanded 58.01 percent of the desktop browser market, a level that it has maintained for several years. The problem is that most popular browser version, period, is IE8, at 21.56 percent. IE8 was the default browser that shipped with Windows 7, although Microsoft has shipped a version of IE11, its most recent release, for that OS.
Microsoft has long argued, correctly, that more modern browser releases are more stable, offer better performance, and support more open standards than earlier releases. Meanwhile, Microsoft's marketing department has been busy making whimsical videos and establishing Web sites, such as browseryoulovedtohate.com, that poke fun at the older code.
"This is something we've been actively doing for some time now," Sampson noted. "Each successive release of Internet Explorer has seen more and more adoption of existing web-standards." Microsoft's IE team works with Google, Apple, and Mozilla on developing new standards for driving the web forward, he added.
More IE extensions coming, someday
Members of the IE team also said that they hope to improve extensions for the browser, putting them on a par with Mozilla Firefox and Chrome. The "Modern" or Metro version of IE doesn't permit extensions, period. For now, however, they're busy ensuring that IE extensions for the Windows 8 desktop don't themselves contain any security vulnerabilities that could imperil IE and its users.
"We're still looking into this and haven't completed our plans, so it's still too soon to project whether we'll invest here," Jacob Rossi, a program manager for Internet Explorer, added. "But definitely on our radar (and has been for previous releases)."
But don't expect a Mac version of IE anytime soon. "We don't have plans for that at this time, " Rossi added. Instead, Microsoft has been busy developing sites like modern.ie and provided free virtual machines support to allow Macs to test sites on Internet Explorer without needing to run a native Mac version of Internet Explorer, he said.

Economic methods of enterprise management.
The methods of control are the setmeans and methods by means of which the controlling subject acts on the object of management in order to achieve certain goals. Through them, the main content of the so-called managerial activity is successfully realized. The management method in principle characterizes the completed act of influence on any management object. There are socio-psychological, economic, organizational management methods.
Managing an enterprise, a specific entity usuallyapplies not one, but several methods at once, that is, their combinations. All of them are in dynamic constant equilibrium and organically supplement each other. Economic management methods or organizational - it does not matter, they are all aimed at people who carry out different types of work.
Economic management methods - there is nothingOther, as ways of influence on all property interests of concrete people, and also their associations. Their position in the system of existing methods is a priority. In addition, economic methods of managing an enterprise in a market economy are the basic ways by which one can influence people's behavior, activate their work and increase the overall business activity of certain enterprises.
Their basis is the economic laws that100% objective, and also the principles of remuneration for any work having its own peculiarities at each enterprise. Socio-economic management methods should use economic incentives to lead to activization of all employees in the required direction and at the same time contribute to increasing the economic potential of the collective, firm or enterprise as a whole.
There are such economic methods of management: planning, that is, the development of plans that determine what the state of the economic system will be, and what ways to go, what methods and means to use to achieve it. This method involves the adoption of various planning decisions by authorized persons or bodies.
The second method is commercial calculation. This is the way of farming. It is based on the measurement of the costs of a particular enterprise for the production of its products with real results of economic activity, for example, revenue, sales. It is also based on the full reimbursement of production costs solely at the expense of income. It is necessary to ensure profitability and economical use of resources. Workers should be financially interested in the results of their work.
The third method is the balance method. It involves a comprehensive and thorough analysis of all economic processes. For example, the labor balance is the balances of electrical equipment, fuel, building materials, labor balance of use and availability of labor resources in general, and financial balance of all money expenditures and incomes.
The fourth method is lending. He provides that it is possible to create conditions that will prompt enterprises to use credits rationally and wisely, to repay them in a timely manner.
The fifth method - market pricing - isregulator of commodity-money relations, as well as the most important economic tool with which you can measure the cost of production and prices, and so on.
There are also such economic methodsmanagement, as profit, which is the main result of the enterprise. Remuneration of labor is an important motive for working life. And the last method is a bonus. It is designed to determine the individual contribution of each employee to the final result of production.

Under Section 38(1) of the Localism Act 2011, the Council is required to produce a pay policy statement each financial year.
In order to meet this requirement, the policy must be approved formally by the meeting of the full Council by the end of March each year. The policy can be amended in-year; it must be published on the authority’s website (and in any other way the authority chooses); it must be complied with when the authority sets the terms and conditions for a chief officer; and it must have regard to any statutory guidance on the subject.
The Council's Pay Policy Statement (PDF, 163KB) for the financial year 2019 - 2020 was agreed at the meeting of the Council on 20 March 2019.
The Pay Policy Statement refers to a number of other policies. These are listed below, and can be downloaded from the documents section of this web page.
- Senior Officer Information
- Senior Manager Pay Review Process (DOCX, 62KB)
- Market Supplement Policy and Procedure
- Temporary Responsibility and Honoraria Guidelines
- Overall Remuneration of Chief Officers see Statement of Accounts)
- Performance Appraisal Guidelines
- Pension Discretions
- MKC Redundancy Policy

The Local Government Pension Scheme is an intrinsic part of the employment contract for all members of staff. The availability of the scheme is a factor that is taken into account when setting levels of pay, so it should not be viewed as some kind of additional 'bonus'. The Local Government Pension Scheme is a funded scheme, which means that employees and the Council contribute to it every month – putting money aside to pay their pensions in the future. The rules governing the pension scheme are contained in regulations made by Parliament.
All staff at Milton Keynes Council, including the Corporate Leadership Team are able to reclaim a restricted range of legitimate and evidenced business expenses, including business travel.
The Pay Multiple is defined as the ratio between the highest paid member of staff in the authority and the median salary of the whole of the authority's workforce. In Milton Keynes Council, this relationship is as follows:
- Highest paid employee (Chief Executive) = £176,000 per annum
- Median salary (Full Time Equivalents) = £26,470 per annum
The pay multiple is therefore 6.6:1
This ratio is below the expected multiples of 8.1 - 12.1 for the public sector as identified in the Hutton Review of Fair Pay in the Public Sector (March 2011) Report. A lower ratio provides the council with better value for money.
Gender Pay Gap
Here at Milton Keynes Council, we are extremely fortunate to employ a diverse workforce in a breadth of roles. We are committed to equality within our workforce and our flexibility, working practices and wide range of roles ensure that we encourage and support employees to come to work for us, and develop their long-term career to stay with us.
We are required by law to carry out Gender Pay Reporting (GPR) under the Equality Act 2010 (Gender Pay Gap Information) Regulations 2017. GPR is used to assess the levels of gender equality in the workplace and the balance of male and female employees at different levels.
This involves carrying out calculations that show the difference between the average earnings of men and women at MKC; it does not involve publishing individual employees’ data. The Gender Pay Gap Report (DOCX, 108KB)provides information at the snapshot date of 31 March 2018. This information is also published on the government’s gender pay gap website.
As you will see from the report, we’re doing better than the national public sector pay gap. We are extremely proud of the service our workforce provides to the community and to employ such a diverse workforce.
The government introduced a number of changes in April 2017 to encourage employers to offer more apprenticeship opportunities to both their current employees and to new staff joining their organisations. One of the changes introduced requires public sector organisations who employ more than 250 staff to have a target to achieve an average 2.3% of their workforce on apprenticeship programmes. MKC’s data is set out here (DOCX, 61KB).

How do I know if I need to file more than the Form 1040?
The 2018 Form 1040 uses a "building block" approach so the federal tax return could be reduced to a single, simple form. Taxpayers can supplement this form with new numbered schedules, if needed. These new schedules are:
Form 1040 (Schedule 1), Additional Income and Adjustments to Income
Taxpayers use this schedule to report items such as capital gains, unemployment, compensation, prize or award money, gambling winnings or to claim deductions, such as student loan interest deduction, self-employment tax and educator expenses.
Form 1040 (Schedule 2), Tax
Taxpayers use this schedule to report amounts they owe for the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) or when they need to make an excess advance premium tax credit repayment.
Form 1040 (Schedule 3), Non-refundable Credits
Taxpayers use this schedule to claim a nonrefundable credit other than the child tax credit or the credit for other dependents, such as the foreign tax credit, education credits, general business credit.
Form 1040 (Schedule 4), Other Taxes
Taxpayers use this schedule to report other taxes they owe and must pay, such as self-employment tax, household employment taxes, additional tax on IRAs or other qualified retirement plans and tax-favored accounts.
Form 1040 (Schedule 5), Other Payments and Refundable Credits
Taxpayers use this schedule to claim a refundable credit other than the earned income credit, American opportunity credit, or additional child tax credit or have other payments, such as an amount paid with a request for an extension to file or excess social security tax withheld.
Form 1040 (Schedule 6), Foreign Address and Third-Party Designee
Taxpayers who have a foreign address or a third-party designee (other than a paid preparer) use this schedule to report this information.
4. Will filing the 2018 Form 1040 be different?
With nearly 90 percent of people now using tax software, the IRS expects these changes will be seamless for taxpayers who take advantage of the benefits of e-filing, and the IRS expects e-file use to continue to increase.

There is more of a demand for writers on the Internet today than there ever was. Many home workers are making a nice income for themselves just from writing, whether it be blogging or freelance writing in general.
If you’re not familiar with the term, freelancing is working for various business professionals at the same time and also without any long term commitment. In fact, the key to making a sizeable income from your writing is doing just that. Work for more than just one client or company. You’ve heard the term “don’t put all your eggs into just one basket.” You want to spread them out into many baskets and write for several clients and you will yield more profits by doing so.
Have you been searching for writing opportunities? Below I’m sharing with you a variety of ways to make money from writing.
Blogs are well known for their personal nature. Many people blog for just the pleasure of it, or for a hobby. Also, who says you can’t have fun with a blog and make money at the same time?
Blogs can be both, personal and business, and have grown into a vast popular marketing media. In fact, a lot of webmasters have turned their websites into a blog and have been successful. Blogs are more search engine friendly and therefore, are indexed faster than a website is.
Most bloggers are looking for ways to make a steady profit. There are many important factors to remember when making a profit with blogging.
1) You can create several blogs that are within your niche and make a considerable amount of income, you don’t have to have just one. Remember about spreading out your eggs? You should always opt for multiple income streams.
2) Make your blogs search engine friendly. Use keywords or keyword phrases for your blogs that you want to be well ranked for so people will find you. Try to use those keywords in your blog title as well if possible.
3) Set up a free account to use Google AdSense on all your blogs. It’s absolutely free and an excellent way to earn revenue for displaying targeted ads on them. Take the free tour at Google.com/AdSense/.
4) Sign up with several affiliate programs. There are lots of free affiliate programs you can join and make a nice profit for making a percentage of all sales. Some good ones to start with are, ClickBank.com, commissionjunction.com, and affiliate.com. You can post product reviews concerning all products and also include graphics to maximize your affiliate traffic.
5) If you are involved with direct selling, blogging is an excellent marketing tool for pitching sales for the products you are representing. Create a static home page and also a about page explaining what the blog is about and a brief explanation of each product. You will also want to create a contact page including your real name, email and phone number so your customers can easily contact you.
6) You can also blog for others. Many webmasters are looking for bloggers due to time conflicts. Offer to do this at a set rate. Often times you will find blogging jobs listed at problogger.com. Make sure and check back often for updated jobs. You can find blogging jobs by doing a search on Google.com as well.
7) You can also make some nice extra cash by simply creating blogs (with domain names) and establishing them by getting them high up on the search engines, and then selling them. I see people doing this every day and making a nice profit. People do this with websites as well.
If you’ve been involved with article marketing for awhile (you have been submitting articles on other websites and directories including your web links), you may want to branch out with freelancing and start writing for profit as well.
There are so many venues in which to make money with freelance writing. There are websites that will pay you for writing articles. By doing a search for these, you won’t be short on finding results. There are new “paid for article” websites being created every day.
There are also webmasters willing to pay you for article content, website copy, and newsletters, just to name a few. Freelance writing is definitely NOT a get rich quick scheme. It is a legitimate way to make an honest income for those that like to write, posses basic writing and grammar skills, and also for those that have patience in creating a clientele list.
It takes time to make freelance writing a success. Of course you will have to advertise your services. If you are searching for a way to make money instantly, then look elsewhere, as a writing profession may not be a good fit for you.
