Make Sure UV Protected Your Workforce
07 June 2016
There are approximately 40,000 new diagnoses of work-related skin disease per year and statistics show that skin cancer is a developing issue; of the 2055 cases reported of work-related skin disease, 73% were dermatitis and 19% were skin cancer.
So, what can employers do to minimise exposure to the sun for those who work outside?
In consultation with health and safety representatives and employees, employers should identify solar UVR exposure hazards and introduce control measures to reduce exposure such as choosing the right protective equipment, clothing and skin care products, as well as advising employees on UV protection and how to check for early signs of skin damage, changes or abnormalities.When it comes to health in the workplace, prevention is far better than cure!

“THIS IS CETI ALPHA FIVE!”
No, actually, this is not Ceti Alpha Five. But it is one of those reviews that I am really nervous to write. Why? you might ask. The answer is that this would be my second favorite film of all time. You might remember when I wrote my review of The Matrix that it was my favorite film of all time. Well this is the second film on that list.
It is true that I love pretty much all things that have to do with Star Trek, but I am not blind, nor do I place this film in second place of my favorite films list lightly. And indeed, as much as I love Star Trek, I think if I were to sit down and make a list of my top ten favorite films of all time, this would likely be the only Trek film on the list.
Warping out of Spacedock
Let me paint this picture for you properly. You see one thing that we often don’t think of is that in 1982 when The Wrath of Khan came out, there was not much Trek to build on. There had been 79 episodes in The Original Series, and one feature film that was quite frankly not much good.
While I do enjoy a few episodes of The Original Series it’s just not the most awesome TV show there has ever been. At times in fact, that show could get downright silly — cheesy to the point of painfulness. But one did not need a Vulcan mind meld to see that there was a lot of potential in that show, in fact there was just a lot of good to be had in the show, period. It was mixed in and around the cheese to be sure, but it was there. As saddled as that original Trek series was with late 60s culture, tropes, and cliché, it was still in many ways doggone good material. But the show was canceled because the ratings just weren’t where they needed to be.
So the fans pushed and pushed, Roddenberry pushed, rumors of more Trek abounded, and finally, in 1979, new Star Trek came about on the silver screen — lifeless, dull, dreary Star Trek. That first film is a classic example of what can go wrong when you think more highly of your material than you ought to think, when you don’t know your place, when you let your script get weighed down by heady ideals and concepts. That first film simply failed to warp out of spacedock and it left the franchise in a bad place indeed.
The Last of the Dilithium
And yet, for whatever reason, another Trek film was green-lit by the studio executives. But this time, the budget ballooning as seen on the previous film was not to be allowed. This time the fist was closed and the budget was $11 Million, no exceptions, no compromises. Additionally, Gene Roddenberry was given a “promotion” to executive consultant — this essentially meant that he would have no control over the production at all. As we will see, this turns out to be a very good thing. You see, in my opinion his concept of Star Trek was great, but his execution was terribly lackluster. His overly idealistic approach would often make his characters hard to relate to and provide little drama.
So for this “last hurrah” of Star Trek, Harve Bennett was brought in to produce, and he hired Nicholas Meyer to direct. Nicholas Meyer didn’t know much about Star Trek which in retrospect was actually probably an asset. He was surrounded with enough people who knew enough about Trek to keep him from stepping on the land mines, but he also brought a sense of irreverence that was needed and completely lacking on the first Star Trek film.
Thrusters on Full
One of the best things that was recovered in this film, which was completely absent in the first film, was the character relationships and banter. The old energy and synergy from the series was back at warp speed in this one. Kirk, Spock, and McCoy even get an old style banter session/meeting in Kirk’s cabin:
McCoy: Dear Lord. You think we’re intelligent enough to… suppose… what if this thing were used where life already exists?
Spock: It would destroy such life in favor of its new matrix.
McCoy: Its “new matrix”? Do you have any idea what you’re saying?
Spock: I was not attempting to evaluate its moral implications, Doctor. As a matter of cosmic history, it has always been easier to destroy than to create.
McCoy: Not anymore; now we can do both at the same time! According to myth, the Earth was created in six days. Now, watch out! Here comes Genesis! We’ll do it for you in six minutes!
Spock: Really, Dr. McCoy. You must learn to govern your passions; they will be your undoing. Logic suggests…
McCoy: Logic? My God, the man’s talking about logic; we’re talking about universal Armageddon! You green-blooded, inhuman…
And in fact, for the most part, the dialog in this film is exceptional, with only a couple of notable irritations and cheesiness.
Above all, this film is about the characters, the people, our friends in the Star Trek universe. The previous film had this element completely out of place with the special effects and the heady story taking front and center stage, leaving the characters lifeless and undeveloped. But this film centered entirely on the characters and put the special effects back in their place. And even though the story is great, it too is back in its place as part of a journey the characters are on.
And while this film does recapture the heart and soul of Star Trek, it does so, not by trying to capture and be something it is not, but by realizing it can never be what Star Trek was before, so why try? Instead we see an aging Admiral Kirk celebrating the big five oh, and being completely non-plussed about it. In fact he’s sulking.
Later in the film, he realizes he’s “getting senile” as he says when he was “caught with his britches down.”
Captain Admiral Kirk is on a journey, coming to grips with his “old” age.
Here too we see Spock has grown. Though a lot of his character development really happens at the end of the film, the implied development is really a lot of the basis for this film. He’s comfortable with himself, he knows who he is, he knows his place among the humans, he is dear friends with Kirk (and the others formerly of the Enterprise crew), and he’s okay with that. He is truly a fully human, fully Vulcan hybrid and he is at peace. This is a mature and developed Spock that we have never seen before. It allows for great banter, and great chemistry. There have been few times in the Star Trek universe, and indeed in any film, when the chemistry of characters has worked so well.
Spock: If I may be so bold, it was a mistake for you to accept promotion. Commanding a starship is your first, best destiny; anything else is a waste of material.
Kirk: I would not presume to debate you.
Spock: That is wise. Were I to invoke logic, however, logic clearly dictates that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.
Kirk: Or the one.
Spock: You are my superior officer. You are also my friend. I have been and always shall be yours.
Revenge is a Dish Best Served Cold
Of course one of the major problems with the first film was there was really no villain. Star Trek doesn’t always need a villain to be decent, as was proved by Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, but it usually works best if there is a good villain. Khan is legendary as a villain, and for good reason. Though in many ways over the top, and a bit of a caricature, it works very well. The villain has to be strong when facing off against Kirk because Kirk is such a strong personality, and Khan’s wit does match, even exceeds Kirk’s. Of course Khan also instantly gets the upper hand by not showing himself as the commander of the Reliant, a ship in Kirk’s own fleet that should be a friendly.
Ricardo Montalban thoroughly enjoys his role in this film and it shows very easily. From the very first time we see Khan slowly peeling back the layers of protective clothing against Ceit Alpha Five’s inhospitable atmosphere, to his captain Ahab like ramblings and bumbling of modified Shakespeare lines railing against Captain Kirk, he owns the screen. Even when he shares a scene (over the view screen) with Kirk, his presence very easily takes over the scene.
It is very clear that this film thrived on one of the best villains Star Trek has ever seen.
The one good thing anyone ever says about the first Star Trek film was that the music was awesome. And indeed it was. Jerry Goldsmith turned in some of his most amazing work of all time in my opinion. Unfortunately, Goldsmith and his score were now associated with what is widely considered to be the worst Star Trek film. The studio, producers, and director wanted to distance themselves from that film, and by association, that score. They also wanted something that was a little more in keeping with the spirit of the original Star Trek.
Composer James Horner was hired to write the score. It might be considered hard to follow up on the great work that Goldsmith did, but frankly, though different, his score is every bit as good. I love this score as much as the first film’s and indeed, I even listen to it a bit more. It managed to hit all the right notes at all the right times.
And whether because of budgetary reasons or creative choices, some of the most important aspects of this score are when Horner leaves a scene dry with no music at all. It works every well.
Horner and his work here don’t often get much recognition, and his score for the next film, Star Trek III: The Search for Spock is generally considered lack luster (and I would have to agree), but his work on this film is nothing short of amazing.
Actions Have Consequences
Above all, this film loops back around for some continuity and consequences. One of my biggest complaints with the original series was that every single episode was a one shot deal, the next episode related hardly at all to the previous episode. This was TV of the era, and it is far more common now for shows to have complete arcs, but such was not the case for The Original Series. Therefore it seemed as if none of Captain Kirk’s decisions, questionable or not, ever had any consequences. He could sleep around with women and have crazy relationships and flings and nothing ever came of it. He could maroon people like Khan on a planet and it was no big deal, never thought of or mentioned again.
But this film was the first time that we’ve swung back around to address some of these things as Kirk continues to climb the ladder of age. He’s fifty and there are things he regrets, there are things that he did that are coming back around. That crew from the Botany Bay that Kirk stranded on a planet all those years ago and never checked back in on: well their leader is loose and thirsty for revenge. That women he had a fling with when he was (presumably) a cadet: their son has issues. Kirk has to take some responsibility for his actions, he has to face the music, and it costs him dearly. As he says in the opening of the next Star Trek film, “this time, we’ve paid for the party with our dearest blood.”
Live Long and Prosper
One of the best and most creative things about this film is it’s opening sequence. And we actually have both the fans of the day, and the incredibly creative Nicholas Meyer to thank for that.
You see, this was to be one last hurrah for Star Trek, so Meyer decided he wanted to have a great death scene for one of the primary characters of the franchise: Spock. News leaked and the fans were angry — livid in fact. The letter campaign was something to behold as I am given to understand. And Nick was troubled. How could people settle in and enjoy this film if they were sitting on the edge of their seats waiting for Spock to die? Thus was born the Kobayashi Maru sequence, one of the greatest additions to the Star Trek universe ever devised.
The Kobayashi Maru was a test administered to cadets that had them sitting in a bridge simulator as captain. They receive a distress call from a ship in the neutral zone which Starfleet ships are not to enter. But it’s a distress call and the ship is loosing life support. There’s only one thing any good cadet can do, and that’s ignore the rules of the “no fly” neutral zone and rescue the ship. Only it’s a trap and the ship is “destroyed” around the cadet. It’s a no win scenario presented as a possibility every cadet may some day face.
So the film opens with this sequence. You as the first time viewer have no idea what is going on, only that some strange Vulcan looking woman is the “captain” of the Enterprise engaging in illegal rescue operations. The Klingon trap is sprung and all hands appear to be lost. Spock stands up to speak, the console blows up, and he “dies”. Then, in strolls Admiral Kirk, it’s all a simulation, Spock is okay, and everyone assumed that this death scene is what leaked and caused the rumors. Now they can settle in and enjoy the show.
Only, the viewer was duped. After enjoying a film of some of the best Star Trek ever created, we come to the end and it appears Khan is going to win. The Enterprise is badly damaged, there is not much of an engineering crew left, Scotty is suffering from radiation poisoning, and the chamber that must be entered so that repairs can be effected to the warp drive which will allow Enterprise to escape is flooded with radiation. In fact, no human can stand it long enough to make the repairs. But a half-Vulcan can last just long enough.
Cut to Spock’s empty chair on the bridge and a lump in my throat as it begins to dawn on Kirk exactly what happened… as McCoy’s voice croaks hoarsely over the intercom, “better get down here Jim… better… hurry.”
And this is the great death scene. I must admit that no matter how many times I watch this film, I still shed a few tears at this scene. Here are two friends, two heroes, two well known and beloved characters. They’ve been together for years, and one of them selflessly sacrifices himself to save ship and crew. Kirk is with Spock to the end, separated by glass so that they may not touch. But they can speak, and Spock struggles to utter to Kirk one of the most well known lines of Star Trek dialog, “I have been, and always shall be, your friend”. And then, finally, he tells his captain one last time, in his customary and well known way, “live long, and prosper.”
It is one of the most touching and heart wrenching scenes ever written for any film, not just for Star Trek, in my opinion.
This was to be the end of Trek. But producer Harve Bennett was having second thoughts, even as Spock’s death scene was being filmed. So He asked Nimoy, “What can you do to give us a little something we might be able to explore in a future film, should there be one.” Nimoy thought a moment, then proposed the mind meld scene with McCoy where Spock utters one, vague word, “Remember.”
It was the lifeline that Star Trek would need. And yet it was not enough. The original cut of the film shown to test audiences ended with Kirk and McCoy on the bridge, which is still part of the film. But that was it, it cut to credits. The audience was devastated, sad, teary.
Harve Bennett then added two additional elements to the end of the film. Those two elements are what is now the final sequence of Spock’s burial tube on the newly formed Genesis planet, and Spock’s voice over of the famous Star Trek tagline-monologue (traditionally spoken by Kirk in the Original Series). In essence, Harve Bennett gave us hope, and the film was better for it. The entire attitude of the new test audiences was changed by these additions. What we now have is the best Star Trek film made to date.
Not all will agree with me, but this is some very fine filmmaking and this film deserves a place on your shelf. If you have not seen it, shame on you, get out and buy the Blu-ray! Or download it from iTunes!
There is not enough I can say in conclusion. Though this film is my second favorite film on the one hand, it is also probably the film I am most fond of and have seen more than any other film. And so all I can say is, let us boldly go where no man has gone before!

Sometimes an album cover can reveal a lot. The cover for Compass, intricate without being inaccessible, colored with evocative poetic shades, provides evidence that the album’s contents shows young singer/songwriter and musician Conor Gains to be an era-defining talent in the making. The ten song collection is Gains’ solo debut and exhibits his potent command of blues, jazz, and contemporary music idioms framed by superb production values that reveal his many songwriting and performing layers. The songs exquisitely embody the qualities we see on the album cover without ever risking self-indulgence and the three year process of assembling this album, from living the experiences that inform these compositions through the actual recording process, allowed Gains the opportunity to amass nearly a hundred songs worth of material to pluck from when choosing those songs most representative of his artistic vision. Compass is more than just a powerful debut; it’s a forceful statement of purpose propelling Conor Gains into a brilliant future.
He tries on a number of stylistic hats with the album’s songs and none of them sound ill-fitting. I particularly enjoy how flawlessly Gains mixes seemingly disparate styles without any apparent hint of uneasiness. He does this on a smaller scale with songs like the opener “I Know”, but the tracks “Walking Alone”, “Ordinary Love”, “I’ve Been Looking for Your Heart”, and “Miracle”, among others, are impossible to pigeonhole as just one thing. Instead, rock, jazz, even a hint of flamenco, blues, and even hip hop collide and produce sparks instead of unlistenable dissonance. “Walking Alone” is especially memorable thanks to how well Gains’ lyrics refurbish traditional lyrical concepts in a personal and imagistic fashion while the later “Ordinary Love” and “Miracle” are stylistic smorgasbords where anything goes and it all comes together with a naturalness that sounds like Gains knew it would end up that way all along.
“I’ve Been Looking for Your Heart” singed my emotions as Gains’ far reaching vocal talents hit a definite peak with the aching phrasing and full throated commitment you’ll hear from this performance. “In My Head” and the penultimate tune “Darkness in the Light” boast some strong blues influences, but they are closer to the opening tandem of songs in the way they adeptly balance artistic considerations with the commercial. The finale “Mexico” is a last reminder that Gains is at home with surprising listeners and even after nine previous songs, it’s impossible to be unimpressed by his command of the material on Compass. These songs are so good that one cannot help but wonder about the quality of the tunes he left off – he likely has enough high quality material in the bag to keep releasing albums this good for years to come. Conor Gains’ Compass moves the needle for this talented young artist like nothing else before and provides him with a bevy of stage ready tunes that will only burnish and expand his already glowing reputation.

Whether employers like it or not, social networking and social media have found their way into most workplaces. Their appearance has meant many potential landmines for employers to navigate. Luckily, there are several relatively easy steps that every employer can take to decrease potential liability.
This checklist covers the steps an employer can take to prevent social media issues before they arise by using the employer’s policy:
1. Make sure that new hires are properly trained on the importance of social media.
- Prepare a policy or addendum to the employee handbook on the importance of social media and its impact on the workplace and organization. Reinforce the importance of reporting concerns and clarifying questions with supervisors and management before posting something that may be inappropriate or that violates the law.
- Prepare additional policies that address specific concerns such as personal emails and texts from company computers, use of company email or other technology to send personal messages, protection of trade secrets, and promotion of company products on social media websites.
- Make sure that any policy is acknowledged by the new hire in writing and maintain copies in the personnel file.
2. Create clear social media policies that leave little room for ambiguity and ensure that every employee acknowledges those policies.
3. If an employer wishes to gain access to restricted social media websites, consider the following:
- Try to obtain voluntary consent from an employee to access the website by asking the employee if he or she is willing to execute a consent form. It’s important that the employee understand that he or she is providing the employer with the password. Consider having the employee’s signature witnessed.
- Ask if the reporting employee is willing to provide a screen shot of the social media site.
- Make sure the employee understands that he or she will not be punished or retaliated against in any way if the employee is not willing to provide a password or voluntary consent, or revokes the consent at a later time.
4. If an employer wishes to safeguard its ability to review personal e-mails or text messages, consider the following:
- Prepare a policy that notifies the employee that the employer may review any communication sent over the company network, regardless of whether it is over the company e-mail or text messaging system or it involves a personal account using a company device.
- In the policy, notify the employee that his or her communications are subject to review even after the employee leaves, regardless of whether they concern business or personal communications.
- Make sure that the policy covers personal accounts that are accessed during work hours from company systems.
- Make sure that the policy expressly covers text messages and other forms of communication on personal handheld devices supplied by the employer.
- Make sure that the employee clearly and expressly acknowledges receipt and his or her understanding of the policy.
Stay tuned next week for Part 2 of this blog post, in which we will review what an employer should do to address employee conduct that violates the employer’s social media policy.
This checklist is taken from The Legal and Effective Business Use of Social Media in the Workplace by Theodora R. Lee, a senior shareholder/partner with Littler Mendelson, P.C., San Francisco. Check out the full article in the December 2012 issue of the California Business Law Practitioner, a must-have quarterly reporter with practical and timely information on business-related topics.

The Arctic is warming faster than other areas of the planet. Researchers are working to increase knowledge of the processes that affect this development. Changed wind patterns and changes to the circulation in the ocean are significant for how the increasingly thinner sea ice in the Arctic is spreading.
"Earlier, the processes in the Arctic have been more isolated, but now we are seeing a greater exchange with the surrounding regions. For example, we now have more north-south winds, which bring a larger inflow of moist air to the Arctic and which carries the cold out from the Arctic," says Ralf Döscher, climate researcher at SMHI’s Rossby Centre.
Changes affect the sea ice
A great deal of fresh water from rivers is channelled out along the northern European and Asian coasts. Research shows that an upper layer of fresh water just beneath the sea ice protects the ice from the affects of warmer water masses from the surrounding seas.
"We can see long fluctuations in the sea’s transport of warmth from the Atlantic to the Arctic. This affects the edge of the sea ice, which draws back as the supply of warmth increases," explains Ralf Döscher.
The sea ice cover will continue to decline, yet large variations from year to year are likely.
"Sea ice forecasts far into the future are associated with large uncertainties. So I think it is more pertinent to find out what the decline in sea ice in the Arctic means for the whole Arctic region, than trying to forecast exactly when it will disappear. Long before the ice has completely disappeared, it will have had a major impact in the area. Forecasts for the next few years, however, have the potential to be developed," adds Ralf Döscher.
Collaboration and multidisciplinarity
SMHI's climate research unit Rossby Centre has led the multidisciplinary project ADSIMNOR. The project links together process understanding and model development with new climate scenarios and user studies. Researchers from several institutions have participated.
Researchers from Stockholm University have broadened the knowledge of feedback processes in the climate system, among others, in connection with cloudiness with and humidity. From the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, researchers have shown that future climate scenarios in conjunction with statistical information can be used to simulate permafrost changes in local areas, such as Swedish Torneträsk.
At Lund University, researchers have examined how climate change affects vegetation in northern Europe and Asia. They have established that the vegetation boundary will move north and the eco-system will continue to bind carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
An important part of the work has been a close user dialogue. As the project has progressed, representatives of the reindeer industry, traffic and tourism have held talks with researchers about the objective of the research and information for users.
ADSIMNOR (ADvanced Simulation of Arctic Climate Change and IMpact on NOrthern Regions) is a four year project funded by FORMAS. The project will end in 2014.

Watch Out: Here Comes Generation Z
Generation Z is now entering the workforce. The oldest members of Generation Z recently turned 21 and are beginning to enter the workforce. Within the next decade, these numbers will soar and businesses should adapt their recruitment and retainment strategies if they want to attract top candidates.
They are remarkably different than their millennial predecessors and their arrival should force businesses to change their marketing strategies and rethink recruitment and retainment techniques.
The following article examines the typical characteristics of Generation Z and how they are expected to change the workforce.
Who is Generation Z?
Generation Z grew up during the recession, so they are thought to be more career-orientated than Millennials. They grew up hearing about the struggles of Millennials and they are trying to avoid making the same mistakes. They are more realistic and resourceful and desire to have more control over their careers.
Generation Z members aspire to be entrepreneurs. According to a study from Universum, 55 percent of Generation Z members are interested in starting their own companies. Like the Millennials before them, Generation Z shuns the traditional 9-to-5 office jobs and dreams of self-employment. Generation Z grew up witnessing the success of innovative startups like Facebook and Uber, as well as crowdsourcing. They have ambitious goals of developing their own startups and being their own bosses.
Generation Z and Social Media
While Millennials are undoubtedly digital, Generation Z grew up with the Internet and likely cannot remember a time without social media. They are more tech-savvy than their predecessors and are used to having information instantly available at their fingertips.
Generation Z, however, tends to shy away from many of the social media sites that other generations have embraced. They are aware of their “personal brand,” and have seen first-hand the damage that can come from posting an incriminating photo. As a result, they are turning away from social media platforms like Facebook in favor of more anonymous apps like Whisper, Snapchat and Secret.
Generation Z tends to gravitate towards more visual content. They like to communicate using emojis and emoticons, and prefer live-streaming media like Twitch and Ustream.

MANILA, Philippines – Andrew Tan-led Alliance Global Group Incorporated is spending more than P150 billion in capital expenditures from 2016 to 2017 primarily to accelerate expansion of its property, gaming, and quick service restaurant businesses.
Alliance Global president Kingson Sian said bulk of the two-year programmed spending will be for its property unit Megaworld Corporation, which plans to build more hotels as well as office and retail spaces.
“We continue to be optimistic about what lies ahead. That is why we have kept an aggressive capital spending plan moving forward,” Sian said.
“In 2010 to 2015, we spent an aggregate of P270 billion for our expansion projects. We will spend more than half of that amount for 2016 and 2017 alone, proving our positive outlook for our business,” he explained.
Sian said the group is planning to ramp up the development of office spaces to an average of 165,000 square meters (sqm) annually to hit 1.5 million sqm by 2020.
The conglomerate also plans to quadruple the number of hotel rooms to 12,000 by 2020 from the current 3,000 to maintain its position as one of the leading hotel operators in the country.
For its retail developments, Sian said the company intends to launch 80,000 sqm of commercial spaces annually to hit 633,000 sqm by 2020.
Alliance Global – through its leisure and gaming firm Travellers International Hotel Group Incorporated – will also start spending on the development of its second integrated resort and gaming complex called Westside City within government-sponsored Pagcor Entertainment City.
Westside City will be the 4th gaming complex to rise in Pagcor Entertainment City. (READ: Andrew Tan’s Manila Bay casino to open in 2018)
Alliance Global said its quick service restaurant business – through Golden Arches Development Corporation (GADC) – is spending heavily to increase its number of McDonald’s stores nationwide to ride on the overall improvement in consumer demand.
GADC is poised to hit its 500th store this year and is looking to grow the number to 900 stores moving forward.
Funding for the group’s two-year capital spending will primarily come from borrowings and internally generated funds.
Sian said the group is very much optimistic about the growth of the economy under the Duterte administration.
“We are a company that is very much invested in the country. While we recently went abroad for acquisitions, which is just a natural progression of the company, bulk of what we do is in the Philippines. Our capital spending is already laid out. We are not slowing down but in fact we are accelerating it. That tells you that we believe in the growth potential of the country,” Sian said. – Rappler.com

What exactly does David Moyes stand for? It is an open question that has touched the lips of many Manchester United supporters this season. For so long the Scot has been considered one of the Premier Leagues more reactionary managers in an era when the philosopher-coach has dominated. It is a précis of Moyes’ time at the top-level as much as a contemporary observation – one that has seemingly carried over to the 50-year-old’s first season with United.
Moyes reputation lies in relief to many of the game’s top managers; those that build teams conforming to a predetermined style. Pep Guardiola’s tika taka; Jurgen Klopp’s hard pressing game; Manuel Pellegrini’s intricate possession play; Arsene Wenger’s passing carousel. Even Brendan Rodgers has transferred his preference for possession football from Swansea City to Liverpool, as has Roberto Martinez to Everton.
Moyes, by contrast, has no philosophy of note; except the hugely predictable crossing game that has proven so ineffective this season. Predicated on quickly recycling possession into wide areas, overloading the flanks, and delivering crosses, United has scored just 38 Premier League goals this season. That’s 19 fewer than at the same time last season.
Yet, the £37.1 million acquisition of Juan Mata threatens to break the mold; to undermine critics of Moyes’ style. Characterised by some as a poor relation to modern football’s best, Moyes is now afforded the opportunity to adapt his philosophy with Mata in the side. The coach will have to if he is to get the best out of his new signing. Unless, of course, Mata breaks first.
There is, of course, legitimate discourse in Mata’s value to United. Not that there is any doubt in the 25-year-old Spaniard’s quality. In two full seasons with Chelsea the Spanish international twice claimed the club’s Player of the Year prize.
But at a time when the Reds’ vulnerability in central midfield – and at the back – has been stark, Mata is luxurious quality when Moyes could also do with a little more steel. It is problem United did not correct this window.
Still, in acquiring another creative talent, one that doesn’t fit into Moyes’ typical pattern, the manager faces a fascinating choice: to shape Mata into the Scot’s preferred system, or to evolve the habit of the past decade.
Indeed, Mata was deployed in a loose number 10 role against Cardiff City on Tuesday night and enjoyed 51 touches, but the Spaniard spent much of the night delivering cross-field passes to either flank. The contrast to Mata’s short-passing game at Chelsea, particularly under Rafael Benítez last season, is marked.
World-class playmaker or not, Moyes’ gameplan is still Moyes’ gameplan.
But that, of course, is where the debate really lies. Whether the Scot is ready to take his game on from a decade at Goodison Park. To use Mata, alongside Adnan Januzaj, Wayne Rooney, Robin van Persie, and perhaps even Shinji Kagawa, in a more fluid, less structured formation.
Time will provide the answer, although the manager’s history dictates it is an unlikely scenario. In fact Mata’s role will change again on Saturday, with United visiting Stoke City in the Premier League where the Spaniard is likely to start on the left in support of Rooney and van Persie in what looks much like Moyes’ 4-4-2 of old.
Whatever formation Moyes eventually adopts Mata’s capture has at least proffered the Scot more confidence than any of his victories with United this season. Perhaps more importantly the Spaniard’s introduction into the United dressing is the first step in what Moyes hopes is a transition away from a group of players who have largely failed him this season.
“I am disappointed we are not in a much stronger position,” admitted Moyes after capturing the Spaniard last weekend.
“I am disappointed with how we have played. I take the rap for that. But what I will do is make it right. I am going to get better players in.
“I have given every player the opportunity to show what they can do. If they want to be here they have to show it in the games. The message this sends is that we’re going for all the best players in the world.”
Even if the Glazer family’s predilection for parsimony has ended building a new side is no simple task. More so given Moyes’ total lack of experience in creating a team at the very highest level, if that is indeed the club’s summer plan. After all, the club’s market capitalisation on the New York exchange has lost more than 10 per cent since Moyes took control, seemingly prompting a new strategy to spend heavily for the first time in more than eight years.
First though United must surely qualify for next season’s Champions League. Without it dreams of signing Toni Kroos, Arturo Vidal, Luke Shaw or any of the many names brought up in the nation’s red tops will dissipate before a player walks through Old Trafford’s doors, let alone drags Moyes’ outfit kicking and screaming to a league title.
And that is where Moyes’ approach counts; where the shackles that have dominated United’s season can now fall. Those 38 goals scored to date might ordinarily suggest just 60 to 65 in the full campaign. To put that in perspective United scored 86 and 89 in the past two seasons under Ferguson. Everton failed to score more than 60 in any campaign during Moyes’ reign on Merseyside.
Goals are but a proxy for a more expansive style of course, although any observation of Moyes conservatism is hardly new. Rooney’s substitution for Chris Smalling in United’s draw with Southampton is just one example of many this season. Given a choice between a risk and a safer bet the Scot always takes the latter.
van Persie’s return to fitness will help United’s cause of course, as will Rooney’s reintroduction to the side after a month out. Yet, the Reds start Saturday’s fixture against Stoke six points adrift of Liverpool. Effectively seven with the Merseysiders’ vastly superior goal difference. It is a situation that requires United to win many of the 15 games remaining this season.
In that Mata is both a bold buy and a key player. It is not just that Mata could both create and score liberally as the season draws to a close, but that he might just prompt the manager into a rethink. In that there is but a small hope.

Famine Memorial Day Bill introduced – Peadar Tóibín TD
Sinn Féin spokesperson on Heritage, Peadar Tóibín TD, today introduced the Famine Memorial Bill in the Dáil which would provide for a fixed date each year in which the Famine Memorial Day will be held. Currently the Famine Memorial Day occurs on a date which varies between May to September each year, and which is determined only months in advance.
Deputy Tóibín said:
“The Irish famine poses an uncomfortable stain on the legacy of British imperialism. While the potato blight was a natural aberration - Ireland's people, who were utterly subjugated, whose land and resources were mercilessly exploited, suffered far more than any other people who suffered famines in Europe at the time.
“The lasting consequence of the Great Hunger was the massive depopulation of this country where over one million people died and a million people were forced to emigrate - these are very conservative estimates. The legacy with regards emigration is still here as well. The sad fact is, because of the start of mass emigration during the Famine, we still have emigration as a defining characteristic of the Irish population and we still see its effects in rural areas today.
“The response to the famine by England was, at best, indifferent and, at worst, utterly inhumane. Public works were established so that the impoverished and weakened men would labour at building useless roads, follies and other pointless projects for pitiful sums of money. Irish ports did not close during the Famine for exports and it is a matter of historical fact that millions of pounds worth of Irish food, including grain and even butter, were sent for export while hundreds of thousands were literally left starving to death. I am not deliberately being emotive on this issue - these are matters of fact.
“While myths abound with regards to the Great Hunger and how it could happen under Britain's watch, some have speculated that it was an attempt at depopulation or a manner to quell dissent by the obliteration of the poorest cottier class. No doubt the Famine painfully impressed upon the generation of O'Donovan Rossa that self-determination was a matter of life and death.
“We need a fixed memorial day to remember the Great Irish Famine, to remember the human cost and consequences of neglect, to remember the effects when an economic imperative is prioritised and to recognise the dark shadows of colonial ‘might’. Most of all, a fixed day of remembrance would to honour those victims and survivors of the Great Famine and allow us to remember what our ancestors lived through.
“It is an Irish tragedy, but with global significance. There is a plague on the Dublin Mansion House honouring the Native American Choctaw tribe who contributed so generously to the Famine victims. It reads: "Their humanity calls us to remember the millions of human beings throughout our world today who die of hunger and hunger-related illness in a world of plenty." There are 800 million such people around the world today. Let us fix this day of national commemoration so that we can remember those who suffer today, as those in this country did once.”

Children frequently feel an enormous quantity of rejection because it seems one parent penalizing and is leaving them. The rejection a child feels may persist into adulthood and is. Adults who have never entirely admitted their parents' divorce find their very own love relationships can be affected.
Remember, we are not referring to mass coming. We are talking a superior interactions. Think quality over quantity. Your engagements with women that are beautiful according to a relationship strategy might be a part of bar or your social circle. It might be that you have arranged even or via online dating in the pub. You just have to become comfortable around girls you find really appealing.
Pay attention to feelings wheneveryou're experiencing negative emotions. These emotions will allow you to combat disempowering emotions like hopelessness and depression. If anger makes you accept it, feel better and use it to pull you from the hole you are in.
Letting those previous experiences to ruin my future opportunities to allow love in my entire life. I went into things jaded with energy, maybe it was because I was unable to recall those parts of my life which were lively. There was also the chance that I just didn't want the responsibility of a relationship, and was approaching all aspects of my life with the" options Holyoke zoosk dating apps tinder" mentality. Sometimes we are not ready to comprehend who we're inside, or you may be still not beyond the past. There is nothing wrong with that, if I had just done a record of what I managed to bring to the table, but I might have saved a great deal of heartbreaks.
She reached up and kissed me softly. " C'mon in, I'll introduce you to Nadine. " I followed her to meet Nadine after I dumped booze and all the takeaway in the small kitchen and there, standing at the center of the wooden flooring was exactly what I could best describe as a goddess. Nadine was just as curvaceous as Emma, using also the most beautiful deep brown eyes, shaded in luscious lips and blue eyeshadow, painted red and also chocolate brown skin. Her natural black hair has been straightened and fell down onto a dress which exposing an onslaught of cleavage and hugged her curves, daringly Holyoke AB psych online dating episode cut. She smelled something oriental, of vanilla, sandalwood and perfume.
Some Holyoke Alberta tuning is demanded. Consider it like a guitar string. The pitch gets higher and higher Holyoke Alberta new backpage site for escorts it snaps, if you tune it tightly. But the pitch gets lower and lower till the series rattles from the frets and sounds like nothing, if you tune it too loosely.

I was and because she crumpled fuck buddy sext James River NS onto me along with her small size, I could move her easily, so I did. I slid my hands down and under her dress across her thighs, I quickly pushed upward it and she shimmied off it over her arms. She had on a pretty small white lace bra but it was ill- fitting and quite loose around her little titties so I popped the clasp and pulled it off, noticing at precisely the same time that her nipples were like little brown mushrooms, along with rock hard, standing out from the tender cones of her breasts. I pinched both rolling them between thumb and finger and she squirmed on top of me, and lay back down to press on her tits against my chest. I was covered with a tee- shirt, so I yanked that and pulled her back down to enjoy the sensation of these bullets.
This creates a really obscured line between prostitution and also dating. In the laws eyes however. . . the lines aren't so blurred whatsoever. Several judicial systems take into consideration sugar babies to be prostitutes; by approving cash to do sexual acts.
" Oral sex" " Yeah, go on tell me. " " No- one has ever put down their mouth there. And I used to have to struggle through all that hair for to myself if I could be bothered. But it just feels so amazing, so smooth and soft and my God when your tongue has been there, doing this thing. . . I don't believe I've ever had an orgasm like this, not even myself. " " And? " " You doing this has been wonderful, but I do not know what to do with you. It made me gag when it went too far and that I want you to come in my mouth. " " Fucking hell, I thought you said you were shy! " " So did I, but I do not know what you've awakened in me. I would like to do it all. " " Today? " " Why not? " Since I'd finished my dessert, I asked selfishly! We Holyoke Alberta where is the new backpage escorts back on her large bed and simmer lightly for a little while before she said, " Are you really not going to tell me what to do some longer? " " Yeah, OK but I do not believe I could pretend to be such a nasty twat like I was. " You can be nice but nevertheless tell me" She stood up and reached behind her to unzip the dress and online dating scout app it over her head, revealing a lacy bra which I already knew would match the rest.
Think of it as you get dressed to go to work. Maybe you don't like your work, or you do, however you put on an outfit, whether it's a suit scrubs, or something which separates you from the comfort of sitting around in your pajamas.
If you are experiencing a sexual relationship with someone special, do not you want this to be the best it could be? Do not you want to feel full? Don't you want an orgasm? Oh shit, I only said the word" orgasm. " Stop the press. Do we want to print that, as a man said orgasm. The second thing I must do is say" vagina" and" penis" and then I'm really on a roll. I am boiling baby, " online dating news. " I am going to warm up Oprah's couch when she interviews me, it is likely to sizzle.
This was the most confusing thing, because this woman was not only amazing, but she was had a heart of gold and bright, ambitious. Of Holyoke new escorts backpage those around her tried to solve her issue not be so picky and only pick somebody! She was too smart to fall into this pit of advice that is really poor and remained attentive to her heart. She knew that despite sting and the pain of loneliness, shecouldn't allow herself to lower her standards and to wait till she discovered what she really desired. Because she refused to go and give up, life was generous for her by bringing her the man of her fantasies! ! I am sure the moment you read the word" eventually" , you might have felt disappointment once more sink inside that heart of yoursbut the finally was really a great thing for her. Here is where the remainder of the story plays out. You see that her prince charming had come out of a rough relationship and needed some time. He was prepared to have the ability to enjoy again and that's just what happened, when fate worked his magic, the timing was perfect and they fell in catholic casual sex.
In general lesson from Steve: Stay away from people like this. I didn't mesh in the beginning but I ignored my gut helsinki hookers Holyoke AB of being alone. Sometimes it's far better to be alone than with someone who treats you like that.
Can I Overthinking It? Yes! But you aren't alone. Overthinking it is for most people the single biggest obstacle. It's too late When you allow yourself the time to ponder it. It's far too easy to talk yourself since you know thatyou're enjoying the odds each time you do.
I determined what the hell, I' d go for it. I shot him a fast message and we began talking. He seemed a little ignorant from the way he entered, great deals of chatspeak, yet not to the point that I needed a translation program to aid. He had a couple of' dealbreakers' detailed on his account, one was that the woman he was interested in could not live in your home. I still live in the house, so I made certain to mention that to him in among my messages. This was his feedback.
In case you didn't understand, when two men and women meet for the very first time, contacts, not the phone numbers are exchanged by them. WeChat is so that popular in China! How to set up WeChat? It is possible tosearch'WeChat'. Usually, any App shop ought to allow installing WeChat. Make certain to download /install the English casual sex comic hentai.
Additionally, as you work toward a relationship that is conscious, you begin to give up illusions about your partner and see her or him not as your savior but as another injured man like you who is unable to develop and to be healed.
Some of you have kids. And that's totally understandable. Which is why you should set things up in a manner that someone is taking good care of them whileyou're gone, and you will be just called by them at the event of an emergency.

S.H.E to perform at CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala next year
Popular Taiwanese girl group S.H.E is celebrating the Chinese Lunar New Year with fans in China next year. The trio will be performing at CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala on Lunar New Year’s Eve.
The news was confirmed by their music company, HIM international Music and the girls have expressed happily, “After almost three years, we can finally perform to our Chinese fans once again. We promise to give it our best on that day.”
On the other hand, there have been rumours that the production team has restricted S.H.E from performing as a group prior to the Spring Festival Gala. S.H.E has reportedly lost potential earnings of approximately TWD20million (S$840,000).
HIM international Music denied the rumours and clarified, “As Selina is still recovering from her burn accident, no arrangements have been made for S.H.E to perform overseas currently”.
The music company even sang praises for the thoughtful production team. The crew gave S.H.E “direct access” to the rehearsal venue as they were afraid that Selina’s skin would be sensitive to the weather in Beijing.

I wanted to send my friend in Belize some things, but I'm unsure of whether the items go to the post office, and then await pickup? or if they are actually brought to their homes?
Article Number: 136 | Rating: 5/5 from 1 votes | Last Updated: Wed, Dec 6, 2006 11:59 PM
They are kept at the post office.
The friend will have to pay any taxes due on the items when they
arrive. Letter and letter sized envelopes have no fee. Even when they
are thick sometimes. :>

For @cluudle’s prompt
The halls were dark. Something was howling in the distance. Something else was screaming.
Roanna was doing a decent job of holding it together. She’d grabbed the hand of the nearest classmate she could find, and they were moving calmly and meticulously through the darkness. Roanna had a flashlight in her free hand; Tamberlain had a long wooden stick in his off hand.
“Look, the stairs should be right around…” Suddenly, she couldn’t move. Panic, totally inexplicable terror, gripped her and wouldn’t let go.
“Ro? Ro? Shit, Ro, run!” Tamberlain, still gripping her hand, starting following his own advice, and, in the process, dragging her along.
Her frozen legs finally responded, and Roanna started running, too, as fast as she could. Something was wrong. Something was really, really wrong.
They saw the other two kids – Zuleyma and Merton, people they knew from class – running their way, but not in time to stop. They skidded, instead, heels dragging into the carpet.
Something hit their faces, first, and their outstretched free hands, something sticky and grabby. By the time they came to a full stop, their whole bodies were ensnared.
The panic released them as, behind them, someone started chuckling. “Panic trap. I love it.” A hand settled on Roanna’s shoulder. She couldn’t move her face to look, but she could see, in front of her, Zuleyma’s freaked-out expression. Her heart was still pounding, too, like it was trying to claw its way out of her chest.
“What?” The sticky stuff grabbed even at her lips, making speaking tricky.
“Panic trap. It makes you, well, panic.” There was another hand on her ass, very gently resting there. “And then, of course, my web. I hardly have to do any work at all.”
“You’ll see. Now, all of you, just say the magic words, and I’ll let you go. The web is acidic; it’s already trying to digest you, so I’d talk fast.
“Please?” Zuleyma tried.
“Not those words. ‘I belong to you, Segenam.’ Those words.” The voice was still chuckling. And Roanna’s face was starting to sting.

from the Campaign Finance Institute (CFI)
takes a close look at financing in the House and Senate elections of 2012. The report breaks down candidates’ receipts and independent spending by status (i.e., incumbent, challenger, open seat), party, and margin of victory, and finds that independent spending roughly equaled that of the candidates in close House and Senate races. CFI, a MacArthur grantee, shows that as of October 17, winning candidates for the House of Representatives had raised an average of $1.5 million, compared to $1.4 million for the full two-year cycle in 2010. Winning Senate candidates had raised an average of $9.7 million through October 17, compared to $9.0 million for the full two years of the 2010 election cycle.

Starting with Jaggery Kulfi today. Jaggery Kulfi is mildly flavoured with jaggery and is creamy and tastes very traditional. Jaggery gives it that feel. It is a nice dessert to serve your guests this diwali. A very traditional yet a nice twist to the regular kulfi.
I am a part Culinary Council of KitchenAid India. And the recipe for Roasted Chana is my contribution to their Blog. Hence i have mostly used KitchenAid Products.
2 ltrs – whole milk
1/2 cup – Jaggery powder
Almond slices and Saffron for garnishing
Take all the milk in a deep saucepan.
Bring it to a boil.
Reduce the flame to low and boil it till the milk reduces to 1/4th.
Keep stirring it occasionally with the spatula to avoid the milk from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
The milk should be now thick.
Transfer the milk to a blender. Add jaggery powder and blend for till smooth, for about 5 minutes.
Strain it to remove any dirt that might be there in the jaggery. Also straining removes all the foam that would have formed.
Let the mixture rest for 15 minutes and fill them into the terrace bowls or kulfi moulds.
Cover it tightly and freeze overnight.
Before serving garnish with almond slices and Saffron.

Cloud9 have raised $25 million (£18.9m) in their first round of venture capital financing from a number of high-profile companies in media, sports, and entertainment.
Investors include WWE, the Beverly Hills Sports Council, Raul Fernandez (co-owner of Monumental Sports & Entertainment), Michael Ovitz (co-founder of the Creative Artists Agency), venture capital firm Founders Fund and a joint investment from tech investors David Sacks and Bill Lee, according to a report by ESPN.
MLB veteran Hunter Pence is also claimed to have participated in the Series A financing, and will now have the possibility of sitting in on shareholder meetings as a board observer.
“We thought they were on their way. We looked at a lot of players, and they were the ones we put in the top tier.”
The news follows our report last month that had raised $19.7m of the $25m total, as revealed in a September SEC filing. It appears that Cloud9 was successful in completing the funding over the following weeks, with several backers from a $3 million (£2.27m) seed round as early as January increasing their stake in the company. FunPlus, Rick Thompson of Signia Venture Partners, Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, and Bill Lee are all reported to have raised their investments in the organisation.
WWE’s decision to invest in Cloud9 was a result of an assessment that the organisation and players were the most likely to achieve long-term success, said Chief Strategy and Financial Officer George Barrios.
“We just thought that Cloud9 team had developed lots of expertise and we’re just really, really impressed with Jack [Etienne, Cloud9’s CEO] and the rest of the staff; how professional they were, how organized and how much infrastructure they had built for a small organization,” George said. “We thought they were on their way. We looked at a lot of players, and they were the ones we put in the top tier.”
Cloud9’s funds come at a crucial time, with an expected $30m to go out in franchise fees after successful applications to spots in the North American LCS and the London base in Blizzard’s Overwatch League were reportedly granted. Uncertainty over those fees was the only reason that January investment was so limited, according to Jack Etienne.
“We didn’t really bring too much money into the company in because we didn’t know what the franchise and entry fees were going to be,” he said. “We didn’t know for sure which games we’d be a part of. It was a bit premature to have the sizable round that we ended up doing this time. It was always in the plan, even when we did our seed, we knew this was coming and the timing was going to be around when we knew what the franchising costs would be depending on what we were looking at. That’s what brought this on.”
Jack’s conversation with ESPN also revealed plans to build a Cloud 9 player facility in Los Angeles, although with few details to spare that appears to still be in the pipeline for now.
Esports Insider says: Cloud9’s investment is great news for the organisation, which continues to go from strength to strength under the guidance of Jack Etienne.

Cowboy, Kyle Hansen is the black sheep from the poster-family for dysfunctional relationships. His relationship as a hell-raising womanizer began at the ripe age of twenty-one when the woman he fell in love with became pregnant after she’d cheated on him.
Since then he’s been on a mission to prove her right. He doesn’t deserve to find someone who’ll love him.
Juel Evans’ world spins out of control when she comes face to face with the only man she’s ever loved. This cowboy is unredeemable, incorrigible, and pure alpha-gorgeous. She wants him as much as she always did, maybe even more. Teaching Kama Sutra had always come easily until she’s coerced into using her ex as a partner foe a demonstration.
Unbeknownst to Kyle and Juel, family and friend from Cactus Creek have decided to get them together again. Just as it seems there could be hope, the Hansen family suffers it’s worse tragedy ever. Will Kyle’s family drama keep Juel from telling him a dirty little secret?

October 16, 2009
In particular, basic ethical principles of responsibility are useful in looking at ways to tackle the climate issue, said Desai. The collection of speakers was hosted by the Tata Energy Research Institute (TERI), a nongovernmental agency which looks at matters of energy, environment, and development, and took place on 8 October.
Ethical questions on climate change include not just a fair allocation of responsibilities, obligations and costs in fighting it, said Manish Shivastava, a research associate at TERI who is working on a paper entitled “Technology, Ethics, and IPR: The Dilemma in Climate Change Governance.”
Intellectual Property, Ethics, and Climate Change
As technology is a key factor in combating climate change, ethical issues raised include who will commit what kinds of support for the development and dissemination of technology - generally, developed countries are seen as responsible for financial support, and developing countries as responsible for building favourable policy environments (tariff structures or foreign investment policies) for technology to come in, Shivastava said. And there is general agreement that IP rights encourage innovations and private investment in research and development, said Shivastava.
But IP in environmental technology may not look the same as it has in previous debates, such as over pharmaceuticals, in particular as related to HIV/AIDS medications in Africa.
“Most people think about IP and the high cost, taking the example of pharma,” but this may be a different situation, said another speaker who declined to be identified. In pharmaceuticals, the “cost of R&D is so high that IP can constitute something like 90 percent of the price of a technology.” But in green energy the IP is likely not to constitute more than about 10 percent of the product, the speaker asserted.
“There is a clear difference with pharmaceuticals, where IP is linked to a product” than “in the case of energy or environmental technology” which is “much more complex [and necessitates looking] at IP as a part of overall cost, and how to manage cost to make deployment happen,” said Anand Patwardhan, a professor at the Indian Instituteof Technology in Mumbai, with a background in environment, technology and public policy.
If there is a paradigm-shifting technology where the problem is IP rights, then there is already the option of compulsory licensing in the World Trade Organization Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights Agreement (TRIPS) agreement, the speaker said, which applies to any product and is not limited to pharmaceuticals.
Open Sourcing for the Environment
It is “definitely true that IPR is a social contract that balances public and private interest,” said Patwardhan, adding that “to the extent that there’s a public interest in more rapid development, you might want to think less about compulsory licences but more about how to encourage development that’s more open.” In open source development, “the ability to work collaboratively is enhanced” and “actually speeds up the technology cycle and makes it more diverse.”
Desai agreed. “With climate, we’re talking about process, not product,” he said, referring to the need for an economic paradigm shirt. “So we need a structure … like a transparency requirement.” This fits, he said, into the open source model of revealing source code.
Other solutions suggested by Shivastava included waivers on royalties for publicly funded technology, patent pools, or patent commons where rights holders pledge conditional waivers on their royalties.
Several participants also mentioned how critical it is that financing for both development and diffusion be provided.
Also contributing as research fellows of TERI, though not on IP issues, were Nitu Goel, who wrote on ethics in funding for adaptation to climate change, and Neha Pahuja, who spoke about measurable, reportable and verifiable goals.
BANGKOK – Humanity may be facing the single greatest threat to its future in history, yet significant political disagreements still stand in the way of common action needed to combat what will be a common crisis. One potential blocking point appears to be whether compulsory licensing may be encouraged for poor countries needing climate technologies.
The Bangkok session of the ongoing UN climate change talks drew to a close Friday with little progress on the most politically difficult issues: who should be obligated to undertake action to combat climate change, what actions should be performed, and who should be footing the bill.
Past UN discussions on this issue place the onus on developed nations to take the lead, citing historical responsibility for the problem. Some developed nations are also calling for commitments from the larger developing countries.
Concessions need to come from developed countries, said Michael Zammitt Cutajar, who chairs one of the working groups at the talks, in response to a question at a press conference on 9 October. “Of course,” he added, there will be no agreement “until developing countries are clear about how they can contribute.”
The technology-transfer negotiating text – in which intellectual property appears – if anything appears to have grown in length this week. A non-paper released by the chairs[pdf] on the final day, 9 October, contained a fifth option on intellectual property (up from four in the previous non-paper released 2 October IPW, Environment, 6 October 2009).
Creating and Distributing the Right Technology
Technology development and diffusion is one of the linchpins of the long-term strategy to reduce emissions that threaten the planet’s atmosphere. It is the development of new environmental technologies that will make necessary reductions possible, and it is access to new technology - along with capacity building and financial support - that will allow developing and least-developed countries to participate in the new, low-carbon future.
Within this framework, intellectual property is shaping up to be a complex part of the puzzle - perhaps even a deal-breaker if positions remain as diametrically opposed as they currently are - though it is as yet unclear what kind of an effect IP has on the diffusion of environmental technology.
On the other hand, a Bolivian submission from September[pdf; Bolivia's submission begins on page 8] that many developing country delegates referred to in Bangkok says proposes the UNFCCC reaffirm “that intellectual property has been a barrier to the transfer of and access to environmentally sound technologies and associated know-how [and] urgent action needs to be taken to overcome this barrier.”
And there has been concern among many developing countries, intergovernmental agencies and non-governmental agencies that climate change will lead to new forms of protectionism that will only further shut developing countries out of the market (see, for example, the recent report of Sangeeta Shashikant of the Third World Network on Climate, IPRs, and Protectionism).
The new paragraph in the text of 9 October, which sources said was added at the request of the “G77” group of developing countries and China reads: “Consistent with their obligations under international treaties and agreements, Parties may compulsorily license specific technologies for the purpose of mitigation and adaptation to climate change, where it can be demonstrated that those patents and licenses act as a barrier to technology transfer and prevent the deployment or diffusion of that technology within a given country.”
With such differentiated stances, the UNFCCC secretariat may lack the technical expertise to address these issues.
US, Others Take Exception to IP Exceptions
The United States signalled dissatisfaction that the section on IP remained in the chair’s text at all during the technology transfer group final informal meeting in Bangkok on 9 October, according to sources.
“The United States will not do compulsory licences,” Jonathan Pershing - deputy special envoy for climate change at the US Department of State - later told Intellectual Property Watch. On intellectual property, he said, the US “will look at things” that increase technology diffusion in the market, not compulsory licensing which “does the opposite.”
They are not alone in this stance. “We will not agree on any change in the system of IPRs,” Anders Turesson, chief negotiator on climate for Sweden on behalf of the European Union, told Intellectual Property Watch. “It would be counterproductive and counter the development of technology we need so badly.” Though, he added, in case of a specific technology need, solutions might be discussed. A separate participant to the technology transfer debates said there was “no willingness on the part of industrialised countries to discuss IP” during the Bangkok meeting.
The US statements are being watched in particular as it is currently the only industrialised nation that has not ratified the Kyoto Protocol, the last major environmental agreement to come out of the UNFCCC, which required a set of developed countries to commit to reductions in their emissions. It is also one of the world’s largest polluters both in aggregate and per capita, so it is seen as particularly important that the country sign on to the next generation of climate protection measures.
“There is no agreement in Copenhagen without the United States in it,” said Cutajar, who chairs the Ad-Hoc Working Group on Long-Term Cooperative Action, which is the umbrella working group under which technology development and transfer issues are being discussed.
There may be domestic difficulties in the US, however, as the Congress is still working on a climate change bill. Not having it complete by December “doesn’t mean that no deal is possible,” said Pershing, but added it was difficult to commit to specific numbers without Congress. The bill that passed the House of Representatives [pdf] earlier this year calls IP a “key driver of investment and research” and says “any weakening of intellectual property rights protection poses a substantial competitive risk to US companies” and says US funding to developing countries should “promote the robust compliance with and enforcement of” IP rights protection.
A draft bill before the Senate lists as one of its purposes in international clean energy deployment as to “promote robust compliance with and enforcement of existing international legal requirements” for IP protection. The bill was introduced by Democratic Sens. Barbara Boxer (California) and John Kerry (Massachusetts).
But is IP the Issue?
Some are questioning whether IP is the key problem in climate change, or whether infrastructure, lack of financing, or lack of capacity might be greater problems.
The “barrier is not IPR,” Turesson. The “barriers lie somewhere else… [in] poor situations, or environments.”
“Barriers to technology transfer look different in different countries, and they should be described” and addressed as such, he added. “Technology goes where capital goes” – so that in countries that are poor and not growing, then capacity building and financing is key.
Thaddeus Burns, senior counsel on IP and trade for General Electric, said tariffs on green technology add more to the price of the good than fees on IP licensing.
Lesotho in a party submission [pdf, Lesotho's submission begins on page 5] from May 2009 on behalf of the least developed countries (LDCs) said low capacity to adapt technology in LDCs might mean IP is of less significance than in “major” developing countries.
Others have said that a UNFCCC agreement with IP in it may not provide any additional rights on top of what is already guaranteed in the World Trade Organization Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights Agreement, which guarantees governments the right to issue compulsory licences, even without prior negotiation with the rights holder, in cases of “extreme urgency” or “public non-commercial use.”
Financing and The Need To Move Forward
Whatever activities are decided, from technology transfer projects to emissions reductions, financing them will be a critical issue. In particular, financial help for developing countries must be available.
“What is the point of taking your llama to a dry watering hole?” said Yvo de Boer, executive secretary of the UNFCCC, referring to the difficulty in securing funding resources. Industrialised country leadership and financial support are needed, he said.
“There’s been very constructive engagement from developing countries,” he added. “But without financial backing, what’s the point?”
Ambassador Di-Aping Lumumba of Sudan said in a press statement that there is a “massive leadership deficit” in developed countries, and called on their citizens to correct this.
These issues and others will be taken up again in Barcelona, during which time many delegates in Bangkok said they hoped substantial issues would be addressed and moved towards resolution.

Hemp Extraction by Ultrasonic Equipment
Hemp and Hemp Oil
The plant Cannabis sativa is distinguished into two main species, hemp and marijuana. Both contain CBD (cannabidiol) and THC (tetrahydrocannabinol). CBD is well known for its beneficial medical effects, acting anti-inflammatory and anti-anxiety, whilst THC is mostly known for its psychoactive abilities, which cause the so-called ‘high’. Hemp contains a significantly higher percentage of CBD, while THC is found only in trace amounts. This makes hemp the predestined source to produce high-quality CBD extracts, which are therefore also known as hemp extracts. CBD does not cause “high” effects, but its use can have relaxing effects and reduce anxiety and depression.
Hemp extracts are rich in cannabinoids such as CBD and CBG as well as terpenes – substances, which are known for their positive effects on health and well-being. Hemp extracts contain mainly non-psycho-active substances. THC, which is known for its psycho-active effects, is found in hemp in minimal concentrations of less than 0.3%. THC in such low dosis is negligible and produces no noticeable effects in the human body.
CBD is one of many phytochemicals in the hemp plant. These phyto-compounds are encapsulated in the vegetal cells of the plant. In order to produce hemp extract such as CBD oils, tinctures, capsules, lotions, creams or other supplements, the CBD must be extracted and isolated. To release the valuable cannabinoids such as CBD, CBG and terpenes from hemp, an extraction process is required. Hemp extracts can be produced via various methods such as ethanol extraction, hydrocarbon extraction, or supercritical CO2 extraction. A very efficient, rapid, safe and easy-to-operate technique of hemp extraction is the ultrasonic extraction.
- Higher yield
- Superior quality
- No thermal degradation
- Rapid extraction
- Simple and Safe Operation
- Green Extraction
Hemp Oil Extraction Process
Hemp oil or cannabis oil is a term often used for the isolated CBD oil from the hemp or cannabis plant, respectively.
There are two types of CBD oil production, which result in two different products. One is by isolating exclusively the CBD to produce a CBD isolate. The other type of CBD production results in full-spectrum or broad-spectrum CBD. Full-spectrum CBD is produced from the hemp leaves, stems, or flowers and gives a pure oil containing the full spectrum of all cannabinoids and terpenes in the hemp plant. Full-spectrum CBD oils have the benefit of the so-called entourage effect. The entourage effect describes the interplay of the manifold other cannabinoids besides CBD. The extraction of full-spectrum CBD oil is often the preferred process, because the full spectrum extract contains not only the benefits of CBD but also of all the other cannabinoids found in the plant.
Ultrasonic hemp extractors can be used to manufacture both types of CBD oils, CBD isolates and full-spectrum CBD oils.
Hemp Oil Extraction Methods and Equipment
How is CBD oil manufactured? In order to extract CBD oil from the cannabis or hemp plant, the cannabinoids such as CBD and CBG must be released from the cell matrix of the hemp material. There are several types of extraction equipments available. The most popular hemp extractors are ultrasonic CBD extractors, supercritical CO2 extraction, hydrocarbon extraction, and conventional solvent extraction (e.g. ethanol, methanol). Ultrasonic hemp extraction has the strong advantage that the sonication technology can be used with various solvents including water, ethanol, water/ethanol mix, glycerine, vegetable oils etc. This gives the manufacturer a wide range of possibilities to optimize the extraction. By selecting a specific solvent, the hemp extract can be produced to meet specific targets such as yield, purity, or final product.
After the extraction process, the phyto-compounds of the hemp plant (e.g. CBD, CBG, other cannabinoids and terpenes) must be isolated by a distillation. For the distillation, the crude extract can be optionally winterized before it is run through a short path distillation or evaporator.

Hemp Extract vs Hemp Oil vs Hemp Seed Oil
CBD oil is a concentrated extract from cannabis/hemp flowers or leaves that is dissolved in an inert carrier oil, mostly an edible oil such as MCT, coconut, sunflower, hemp seed, or olive oil. When the CBD oil is extracted from the hemp plant Cannabis sativa, it is therefore often called hemp extract or hemp oil. In comparison to the marijuana plant (which is high in THC and low in CBD), the industrial hemp plant contains large amounts of CBD and is therefore predestined for the production of CBD extracts. The term hemp oil is sometimes dually used for hemp-derived CBD extracts and hemp seed oil. However those both products – hemp CBD oil and hemp seed oil – are very different in their composition, effects and use.
Hemp seed oil is the vegetable oil, which is obtained by the cold pressing of hemp seeds. Hemp seeds do not contain CBD, but is rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Hemp seed oil is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids for vegetarians and vegans and is used for cooking and cosmetics. Hemp seed oil should be listed as cannabis sativa seed oil, whilst CBD-containing oils are listed as cannabidiol, full-spectrum hemp, hemp oil, phytocannabinoid-rich (PCR) hemp extracts.
Hemp Extraction by Ultrasonic Equipment Hemp and Hemp Oil The plant Cannabis sativa is distinguished into two main species, hemp and marijuana. Both contain CBD (cannabidiol) and THC
What Is The Best Way To Extract CBD From Hemp?
Keep reading to find out how to extract CBD, and which method produces the highest-quality CBD oil. While they all harness the power of CBD, they don’t all achieve the same degree of purity.
Why does CBD extraction matter?
To produce CBD oils, cosmetics or supplements, you must first extract the cannabinoid from raw plant material. Fortunately, the most abundant source of CBD is hemp, a selectively bred crop used extensively in dozens of commercial industries.
Although there are many ways to extract CBD from hemp, some methods are much more efficient and safer than others. It’s essential to know the difference, since how you extract CBD affects the purity and efficacy of the final product.
What are the options for extracting CBD?
Below, you will find a breakdown of some of the most common extraction techniques used, including their main pros and cons.
Solventless CBD extraction (by hand)
How does one make CBD extracts without using a solvent? Simply enough, you just have to apply heat, pressure, or a bit of friction to hemp flowers and leaves. How do you do that, you wonder? Well, if you freeze hemp flowers, you can shake the small trichomes loose and gather them together. These trichomes, as you might know, contain the full spectrum of cannabinoids and terpenes found in the hemp plant.
Pros of solventless extraction
• No additional equipment needed
• Makes use of the whole hemp plant
• Cheapest method of extraction
Cons of solventless extraction
• Yields are low and impractical
• No way of controlling purity, with minimal levels of CBD
• CBD extract contains plant material and unwanted cannabinoids
Olive oil CBD extraction
First, to perform olive oil extraction at home, you need to make sure your plant material is decarboxylated. In short, that means it undergoes the process of acidic cannabinoids being activated via heat. That, of course, happens when you smoke or vape it, but it can also happen if you put it in the oven.
Once decarboxylated, mix your plant matter with olive oil and heat it on the stove for several hours. CBD, other cannabinoids and essential terpenes will bind to the fats in the oil, creating an infused product. Finally, the mixture is left to cool before being filtered to remove any leftover plant material.
Pros of olive oil extraction
• Can be performed easily at home
• Relatively safe, with no previous extraction experience needed
• Greater degree of purity compared to solventless extraction
Cons of olive oil extraction
• Little control over the final extract
• Weak and unreliable CBD content compared to more professional methods
• Not suitable for commercial sale
Basic solvent CBD extraction
Solvent extraction is a rudimentary and risky practice, but it has fans. Essentially, it involves running a liquid solvent through decarboxylated hemp to remove cannabinoids and terpenes. The usual solvents include butane, ethanol, and hexane, so you need to safely evaporate any residual solvent post-extraction to ensure usable CBD extract.
Pros of solvent extraction
• Cheap and requires relatively small amounts of equipment
• Solvent CBD extracts have a respectable degree of purity
• Easy to scale for commercial production
Cons of solvent extraction
• Working with solvents can cause injury if not used correctly, they are highly flammable
• The oil can remain contaminated with solvent, which is dangerous for the end-user
• Higher temperatures risk destroying some essential terpenes and other smaller compounds
Supercritical CO₂ CBD extraction
In this method, CO₂ is manipulated to enter a supercritical state. With characteristics of both a gas and a liquid, it’s pumped through raw plant material under controlled conditions, stripping away essential terpenes and cannabinoids without damaging them.
Pros of supercritical CO₂ extraction
• Allows for the extraction of clean and safe concentrates without the use of additional additives or contaminants.
• Offers highly efficient yields, getting the most out of the hemp plant.
• CO₂ extraction is sustainable and environmentally friendly
Cons of supercritical CO₂ extraction
• Co₂ extraction is an industrial process, making it highly expensive
• Requires expertise to perform correctly
Which CBD extraction method is the best?
CO₂ extraction has significant advantages over other methods of producing CBD oil. First, you can pump supercritical CO₂ through hemp in such a way that it selectively picks up the cannabinoids and other compounds, leaving everything else behind.
Second, since it uses CO₂, it produces CBD oils free from chemicals and contaminants. And, when the extraction process is over, you can either reuse the CO₂ or release it safely back into the atmosphere. Thanks to this outstanding level of control, supercritical CO₂ has become a leading tool extraction and one that Cibdol uses to create all of its CBD extracts.
However, highly sophisticated extraction is only the beginning. Cibdol goes above and beyond for its customers, publishing a detailed analysis of every CBD product batch. Performed by an independent third-party, these analyses indicate levels of all common cannabinoids, allowing you to make the most informed decision possible.

It probably needs no introduction, considering its legendary beauty. Topkapi Palace, the palace of a thousand and one nights . Built in the 15th Century for Sultan Mehmet II, it was, until the construction of Dolmabahçe, the official residence of the Ottoman Sultans. Topkapi's location is strategic, as it overlooks the Bosphorus, the Maramara Sea and the Golden Horn.
In 1924, with the fall of the Ottoman Empire, the palace was turned into a musuem. It exhibits some of the most opulent and incredible objects. One thing I didn't expect to see was the Rod of Moses or David's Sword in the Chamber of the Sacred Relics! Plenty of other religious relics and Ottoman treasures are also on display.
Even though the entry fee might make you think twice, you really shouldn't miss out this incredible visit during your holiday in Turkey! The beauty of the gardens and the amazing mosaics at Topkapi bear little resemblance to the other Ottaman vestiges you will see.

Statistics by the American Plastic Surgeons Society prove breast augmentation is one of the most requested cosmetic surgeries. Research also shows that women need another breast augmentation surgery after 10 years, because implants leak over time or scar shells could develop around it. According to the American Society, surgeon’s fee does not include the cost of anesthesia, amenities, and materials. Price is associated with the doctor, region, and patient too. An average total of US$3678 was the cost of this surgery in 2013, according to one estimate. For coping with the impact of this surgery, a week away from work is generally the period required to recover. Another point to remember is that breasts with implants feel different. Silicone breasts are artificial and look, unlike natural breast tissues. Try on different sizes before deciding on one.
Another factor you need to consider is that a small A cup cannot suddenly make the transition to DD in one simple procedure. To adjust to the process, drastic changes need to be considered too. A gradual increase in cup size is preferred. Breast augmentation could even impact the ability to breastfeed in the future. Women who are obese, prone to smoking or have a strong family history of breast cancer can experience greater complications after surgery.
Medical conditions require that you should be screened and evaluated prior to surgical procedures. The choice of implants is either silicone or saline. The former constituted 77% of the implants used in 2014. The rest were saline. Implants have a lot of issues associated with them. For example, silicone implant ruptures are harder to detect. Saline implants, on the other hand, have ripples in certain parts of the breast. Another new process in place is the autologous fat transfer where fat can be moved from any part of the body to the breast. Women can also get areola reduction through a procedure known as mastopexy. Incision choices can vary from underarm, the incision in the crease of the breast or through areola removal. Prior to the surgery, a breast examination or mammogram is essential. Exercise such as cardio involves bounces and is not permitted after surgery, Implants are comfortable when the procedure is done after the birth of children rather than in the prepartum stage. Augmented breasts affect the poster much like the weight of natural boobs.

Augmented breasts affect the poster much like the weight of natural boobs.
When Do You Need Breast Augmentation
If breasts are sagging due to aging, childbirth, breastfeeding or weight loss, breast augmentation and breast lift may be needed. To be a candidate for breast augmentation surgery, you must be in good health. More major medical problems are a sign you need to be screened. Breast augmentation has been done for breast reconstruction after breast surgery for cancer. Patients should be near their ideal weight or less than 30 pounds overweight. You need to be 22 and above for silicone and 18 or more for saline implants. Risks and benefits of breast augmentation surgery must be carefully considered before proceeding forward.
Another factor that influences whether you should have breast augmentation surgery is the age. You should be 22 or above for the full development of your breasts to have taken place. If your medical condition makes you a wrong candidate for the procedure, it may be better to leave it aside.
What To Watch Out For
The more data there is regarding the procedure and how to look for a surgeon, the better the chances of attaining a positive outcome. Start your research process immediately. Talk with those who have undergone this surgical procedure. Speak with your primary caregiver and physicians too. Your gynecologist can refer you to a reputed cosmetic surgeon. View photos before and after on the internet or other media. Google breast augmentation to get an idea of what to expect. Video testimonies of those who underwent this surgery are also available.
You also need to check if your surgeon is certified and accredited. Once the information has been collected about breast augmentation, you can then make an informed decision about the same. Select two or three doctors for consulting and then make a judgment on the basis of who meets your needs best.
The question to Ask Your Plastic Surgeon
Some of the most important questions need to be asked before surgery, so preparation for the same can be made. What are the points you need to consider? Here are the right questions to ask your plastic surgeon.
Can you give me a background of your medical career?
Here, you are looking for someone who has performed successful breast augmentation surgery and is an expert in the procedure.
Are you board certified and accredited?
This is another question you need to be clear on. Board certification means the surgeon has been specifically trained to perform the procedure. To check if your surgeon is board certified, check his credentials and online details from official websites of certifying organizations.
What is the number of breast augmentation surgeries performed by you?
Check to see if the surgeon is an expert in the field. He or she should have an in-depth understanding of getting the best results and how to counter what can go wrong. Essentially, you need a doctor who is honest about the questions asked.
What is the time taken for recovery once the surgery is performed?
You need to be clear on the limitations you face post surgery. Recovery times are approximate but this will only work well if you don’t have unclear ideas about how the surgery takes place.
What are the pain medications to be prescribed and side effects following surgery?
Your doctor should be clear regarding these scores in turn. Some of the effects of opting for surgery may be permanent. Check the nature of pain medicines that will be prescribed.
What steps do I need to take before the surgery?
You may need to give up smoking, engage in weight loss and prevent the use of supplements such as vitamins, herbs, and minerals prior to the surgery.
How will surgery be performed and what will aftercare be like?
Not only the surgical procedure but also the aftercare that follows must be clearly delineated so that there are no issues.
Breast Augmentation: Decision Making
Breast augmentation is a procedure which is elective and not life-saving. Whether you choose to have it for personal or professional reasons, your motivation for going under the knife should be clear. You can make decisions about the nature of the implant, whether you need a breast lift, smooth or textured implants, the round or teardrop shaped implants. the nature of breast profile you choose, and the incision type you are comfortable with. Check where the implant will be placed– above or beneath the muscle.
Types of Implants
When breast implants are concerned, it is important to consider which implant works best for you. These come in two major types namely silicone and saline. An additional type is called cohesive gel.
The implant you choose to go in for depends entirely on you. What is the difference between Saline and Silicone implants?
While the incision length is 2.5 cm for saline, while silicone implants require a larger incision of 4 cm. While the outer shell is silicone for both types of implants, the fill is saline or silicone. The implant surface is either smooth or textured for both types of implants. While silicone implants are soft, the saline ones are prone to rippling. Rupture is easier to detect with saline implants. Average implant lifespan ranges from lifetime to a 5 percent chance of implant problems for both types of implants is there. Saline implants cost less than silicone.
What about cohesive gel implants? This is the type of silicone implant which is less likely to leak. Here, the shell of silicone is encasing a firmer composition of silicone. This is definitely leak proof because if the cut is made in half, there would be zero leakage. Folds and ripples are less likely to take place. These are not prone to force of gravity so won’t sag in time.
Bear in mind that implants are not measured in terms of a cup size used when purchasing a bra. Cup sizes lack standardization and there is no way to measure the breast tissue. Implants are therefore measured in volume in cubic cm and the range is 125 to 450 cc. The bigger this value, the larger the breast will be post surgery. Many women have breasts lacking ins symmetry and may need a massive implant in one breast. Smaller the height and width, the more compact the breast implant will be. Implants which are too big for you may sag or cause back pain at a later point in time.
Another point to understand is the cleavage is based on the width of the chest. The wider it is, the less cleavage there is. The surface of the implant should be either textured or smooth. Your body creates a capsule around the implant. If the surface of the implant is the former, then these adhere better to the implant. A textured implant will lead to rotating of the chest when a massage is carried out. Textured implants can ripple, as against smooth ones.
The Shape: Contoured or Round?
Breast augmentation can involve round or teardrop shaped/contoured/anatomical shape. Teardrop implants project further at the tip than the base and mimic the body’s natural contours. The shape depends on several factors. An unnatural shape can lead to an asymmetrical appearance. Other factors that come into play while choosing breast augmentation surgery are your body type. implant position and the accuracy and precision of the surgery.
Consider the Breast Profile
In breast augmentation, you have to consider the implant profile. This can range from moderate to moderate plus or high breast implants profiles. The size of the profile is directly correlated with the size of the implant. Therefore check if you want an athletic or a natural and rounded look. If you have a narrow build, choose an implant that is not too wide for your body. Moderate plus breast implant profiles are called normal or regular. A high breast implant is for an extra rounded appearance.
Type of Incision
Another important point is the nature of the incision. Plastic surgeons try to go with least invasive surgery but it is important to note that some implants are not pliable or cannot fit into a small size of an incision. Another consideration is the incision determines the extent of scarring. The different types of incisions are:
- Transumbilical or TUBA
The incisions can be anywhere from 1 to 3 inches in length. Most scars fade over a period of 1 year to 6 months.
Nature of Implant
Check whether your implant is placed over or beneath the muscle. Use inputs to make an informed choice. The decision for placing the implant is based on body type, skin nature, implant size, and your generic objectives. Two primary options for placement of implants are sub muscular and sub glandular. While the former involves implants partially or completely under the pectoral muscle. the latter includes placement of the implant over the muscle. The nature of the placement influences recovery and comfort following surgery.
Breast augmentation carried a lot of risks too. Situations occur when the implant moves out of the earlier position placed by the surgeon. Using textured rather than smooth implants positions the implant carefully.
Rippling is another problem associated with breast augmentation surgery. This is a wave type indentation on the breast’s surface which can influence the final outcome Complication comes from not filling the saline implants with the right quality to give it a proper shape. Saline should move around inside the implant for a ripple effect to be observed.
Rupture or leakage is caused due to trauma. This may take place leading to deflation especially if saline implants are used. Silicone implants rupture less conspicuously. Therefore, the US FDA holds that women should get MRI screenings every couple of years to check for ruptures if they have undergone breast augmentation.
Breast implants can also influence how mammograms are carried out. Capsular contractions when extremely well-knit collagen fibers gather around the implant leading to pain may also result, following a boob job.
Other common risks accompanying any surgery include bleeding, infection, anesthesia, nerve damage, temporary or complete numb sensations.
How to Get Ready For Surgery
Consider a list of supplements prior to surgery. Some of the supplements you need to avoid before breast augmentation surgery are herbs, minerals, and vitamins. This includes garlic, ginger, dark green veggies, fish oil, herbal supplements, vitamin E, Gingko Biloba, Liquorice, Golden Seal, Valerian, Feverfew, Melatonin, NSAIDS and more.
Special pre-surgery supplements may also be assigned. Drugs and alcohol, as well as smoking, or artificial tanning should also be avoided prior to surgery. You need to be clear about the draining tubes, how to keep incision areas dry, reduction of itching in the area, reduction of swelling and staying hydrated. Eat a diet low in sodium and apply cold compress after surgery. You need plenty of rest and ensure that you do not place pressure on the operated area post surgery.
Method of Breast Implant
Breasts continue to grow till a woman reaches her early 20s. So the US Food and Drug Administration has indicated that the right age for a silicone implant should be at least 22 years. While picking the surgeon, always consider the experience. Prior to breast implant procedures, meet up with your surgeon for an assessment. Breast augmentation is done either as an outpatient procedure or overnight in the medical facility.
Recovery After Breast Implants: Aftercare
Once the surgery is complete, the chest will be covered with gauze. Drainage tubes should be removed in some days. The patient will also have to wear a surgical bra until the healing process is complete. Don’t do any heavy lifting once the surgery is over. OTC pain relievers can help in easing the pain. Pain medicines may also be prescribed by your physician. Some swelling may be experienced when surgery is completed. Inflammations ease over time and scars undergo fading. The usual after surgery recovery process needs to be considered too. Possible complications after surgery are many. Some amount of pain, inflammation, tenderness, and bruising is common. Scars are more likely if surgery incision is long. Pain and nausea may also result. Surgeons will give you a directive about wound healing and how to care for the breast post the operation.
One may need postoperative bras, compression bandages or jogging bras for additional support as healing takes place. Avoid strenuous activities that could cause hypertension and blood pressure for around 2 weeks.
Check with your surgeon about the schedule for follow-up visits, limitations on activities, precautions that need to be taken and when normal activities can be resumed.
Breast augmentation takes only an hour. It requires a stay at the hospital for only some patients. Women recover in weeks. During the aftercare period, your movement may be restricted for some time. Once surgery has been completed, you may be asked not to pull objects which are greater than eight pounds in weight. Sports bras will be better than underwire bras during the recovery period. The activity should not be carried out for at least 6 weeks when it is strenuous in nature. Wearing compression wear and the right garments are essential to control the swelling. Itching and discomfort may be experienced once the surgery is complete. Incision or suture lines should be kept free from water for best results. Once the healing of the incisions takes place, scars are formed. Women with dark skin are more prone to get lump-like, raised scars called keloids. Laser scar removal, cryosurgery, and injections of steroids could be the cure.
If there is bleeding, severe inflammation, discoloration or high temperature above 105 degrees F, or vomiting, nausea, and loss of consciousness or convulsions, you need a doctor’s intervention immediately.
Average Cost of Breast Augmentation
Average fees associated with breast augmentation (and this is just the surgeon’s cost) is US$3,700. This does not include breast implants, medical facility fees, and anesthesia. A total bill can be as high as US$ 7900-8000. Considering cosmetic surgery, the cost depends on the surgeon, the location of the practice, the venue, choice of breast implant and concerned expenses. The prices of cohesive silicone breast implants, saline and silicone gel also differ. Consider factors like private surgical suites, hospitals, and ambulatory centers, as these can also make a difference in the cost structure.
An anesthesiologist can cost more than four hundred dollars per hour. The expenses taking anesthesia, surgeon fees, operating facility fees, and other expenses compound, reaching US$10,000 even. As it is cosmetic surgery, health insurance coverage for breast augmentation is not there.
So, when it comes to cost and recovery, a lot of factors influence whether you will have an easy time of it. This can make a difference in the outcomes as well. Recovery is based on how well you follow the medical care guidelines and how alert you are to the changes in your body, post surgery, Breast augmentation surgery is not for everyone. Consider all facets carefully before deciding you are cut out for it.

Aberdeen council HQ sale 'could fund improvements'
- 29 August 2012
- From the section NE Scotland, Orkney & Shetland
Proceeds from the sale of Aberdeen City Council's former headquarters could be used to pay for some city centre improvements, it has been announced.
More than 1,000 council staff vacated St Nicholas House for the newly-refurbished Marischal College building.
The 14-storey former HQ was erected in 1968 and is being demolished.
Labour - senior partners on the ruling coalition - said it was also exploring using Common Good Fund money to fund improvements.
Councillors voted to scrap the £140m City Garden Project plan to transform the historic Union Terrace Gardens last week.

What do RioTinto, DellEMC, Novartis, Tiffany & Co., Comcast, and Stanford Health have in common? Besides being global enterprises who rely on video collaboration to power massive shifts to remote work in response to Covid-19, they also use Vyopta along with Cisco Meeting Server (CMS) to optimize enterprise collaboration.
If you’re a Cisco Meeting Server customer, then you know CMS brings premises-based video, audio, and web communication together to meet the collaboration needs of the modern workplace. What you might not know is that you can push the power of CMS even further with monitoring and analytics from Vyopta.
Why do you need Vyopta with Cisco Meeting Server?
For starters, companies need to know the health of their CMS deployments, and they need alerts to notify them of when systems go down as well as visibility into which systems are up or down at any given time. In addition, without some kind of visibility into Cisco Meeting Server capacity, enterprises risk running out of capacity which means CMS servers can crash and scheduled meetings won’t start due to capacity issues. And if users happen to experience bad quality during their meeting, Cisco Meeting Server alone does not provide visibility into metrics for the meeting or participant to help troubleshoot root cause. Finally, if you’re in a situation where you are providing services where historical data on your meetings is important, such as a telemedicine provider or law firm, Cisco does not provide that data needed for adoption, utilization, and compliance reports.
Great, how does Vyopta help with quality of experience?
It’s not very productive to have IT teams living in Cisco Meeting Server. It’s far more efficient to be notified of when they need to log into a system to address an issue. Vyopta’s Collaboration Performance Management Monitoring (CPMM) solution shows Cisco Meeting Server up/down status on a visual dashboard as well as offering alerts can be set up to notify a user of when there is an issue. And when it comes to participant quality, Vyopta allows IT teams to quickly troubleshoot why a participant is having a bad experience or to rule out the Cisco Meeting Server platform as the issue. When users’ software clients and endpoints are registered to CMS, Vyopta can also gather performance metrics from the edge conference node or expressway, and the endpoint directly to better detect and diagnose quality issues. Vyopta is also the only solution that provides dial-back capability so users can look back at historical data in Cisco Meeting Server to discover trends and patterns that indicate an issue.
Cool, but what are the business benefits?
By having better visibility into Cisco Meeting Server with Vyopta’s CPM AnalyticsⓇ, companies can keep their CMS bridges available so employees can continue to conduct business for internal and external meetings in a more efficient manner. They can see Cisco Meeting Server license and bridging capacity and understand peak concurrent usage to intelligently throttle capacity to meet business needs and avoid service disruptions. Understanding the quality of meetings is also crucial to productivity and business continuity so knowing why a user had a bad experience and being able to rule things out makes the troubleshooting process quicker and easier to execute. Metrics related to adoption, utilization, and compliance also allow companies to understand how departments and geographic locations are engaging with collaboration differently and to better train users to have a successful experience. This way, business stakeholders can better understand employee engagement, a crucial metric during these Covid-19 remote work times. Lastly, Vyopta proactively notifies IT teams of potential disruptions, and allows them to troubleshoot not only live meetings, but also past meetings.
Sold, how do I give it a try?
Vyopta is providing a free extended trial of the CPM suite for Cisco Meeting Server customers through July 31, 2020. Act by May 31, 2020 to secure your trial.

Aleks Kolkowski on Embedded with the British Library Sound Archive
Every year, Sound and Music shine a light on the work of the composers who are currently in residence on our Embedded and Portfolio programmes. These are our New Voices of 2016. They are creating new, exciting and innovative music, across disciplines, all over the UK.
Aleks Kolkowski – enthusiast and expert in antique sound recording – reflects on his experience working with the British Library Sound Archive, where his work explores the notion of ‘hearing the present through the sound recording media of the past’. Describing how the advent of the ‘electrification’ of music has hindered the ‘human qualities’ of music-making, Kolkowski devotes his creative practice to wax cylinder recording, phonographs and gramophones, whilst also exploring recording on photographic materials such as x-ray film…
Describe your music in a few sentences.
A lot of my current music-making involves the use of old sound recording and reproduction technology and media. By ‘old,’ I mean 1900s cylinder phonographs, 1920s wind-up gramophones and also early electrical disc recording equipment for cutting 78rpm discs. I record on wax cylinders, lacquer (acetate) discs and also plastics, x-ray film and often on discarded CDs & DVDs, so I re-purpose media formats too.
These obsolete devices and media allow me to explore recorded sound as memory, our relationships to technology, to go backwards and forwards in time, to hear the present through the sound recording media of the past.
I tend to use a lot of archival sounds. These can be early recordings on wax cylinders, but I mostly record my own cylinders for use in performances or in installations. A fruitful source over the years has been early sound effects recordings on 78rpm records – mostly shellac discs from the 1920s & 30s. I’ve been collecting these for decades – the earliest I have is from 1908, the later ones are from the 1940s. I use them in performances where, typically, they are sequenced and overlaid using three or more gramophones. Rather than hear nostalgic music coming from the gramophone horns, you hear noises of industry, transport, test tones, bells, birds, crowds, vowel sounds and so on. These sounds are often ‘accompanied’ by the strains of my Stroh violin, a historic mechanically-amplified instrument that blends superbly with the sounds reproduced by the gramophone and phonograph.
I’m also an improvising musician and have been since the early 1980s. I play violin, viola and musical saw.
What attracted you to apply for the Embedded programme with the British Library Sound Archive?
Because the brief chimed with the creative work I’ve been engaged with over the past fifteen years or so - early recordings, wax cylinders and discs - and I had wanted to explore the BLSA collections for a long time. Having such close access to these national treasures is a great privilege.
How do you feel your residency is going? What has been your highlight?
I’m currently working with the Library’s ‘Bishop’ collection of sound effects for theatre, mostly from the 1940s, that were cut directly on acetate discs. The idea is to create montage compositions using selections from the 1000s of records I’ve listened through and I plan to publish a short selection of these pieces on vinyl in the autumn.
The highlight of the residency, so far, has been recording four wonderful poets on wax cylinders in the BL studios. They were Andrea Brady, Kitt Price, Hannah Silva and Andra Simons. Directly afterwards, I was involved in transferring the cylinders to digital files using the BL’s equipment, and I watched as the recorded cylinders entered the Sound Archive’s cylinder collection. There is always a thrill when you make a decent wax recording and listen back through the phonograph horn together with the performers. They may never have heard such a recording reproduced this way before, and often react as if entranced. Illogically, it’s as if we are hearing something new! But it was the keen interest and support from the technical staff and curators that was especially gratifying in this case. Most had never seen a cylinder being recorded before and as they have worked closely with the medium, through listening or making transfers, they were fascinated by the process.
What have you got planned for when your project has ended?
I have a new exhibition opening in La Station, Nice, October 2016, following a residency where I’ll be producing a series of original sound postcards. My latest sound installation, ‘Edison’s Eve’, currently showing at the Saint-Brieuc Museum of Art and History, will move to Le Bon Accueil sound art gallery, Rennes, in October for one month. The installation is based on Villiers de l’Isle-Adam’s science fiction novel ‘The Future Eve’ (1886). But I will continue working at the British Library Sound Archive for a collaboration with historian James Mansell and BLSA radio curator Paul Wilson as part of the ‘Being Human’ festival late in November. We will present a soundscape based on archive material from the interwar and Second World War period in response to the festival’s theme of ‘Hope and Fear.’
History, or the history of sound recording, seems to be a major focus of yours. What do you think the greatest game-changer in the history of recording is?
It has to be the advent of electrical recording around 1925. This changed everything: sensitivity and range, it opened the parameters for nature, field and location recordings, brought ‘realism’ to audio as well as creative possibilities with microphone placements, depth and ambience. It was now even possible to successfully record the sound of a room, hall or outdoor environment. All these sound like positive developments, but the relentless electrification of music, through new instruments, recording, reproduction and amplification technology, has resulted in the loss of human qualities in music-making in my view.
If you could have access to the sources in any archive in the world, which would you chose?
The Library of Babel.
What is it about wax-cylinder phonograph recording in particular that fascinates you?
Being able to record something and instantaneously ‘age’ it - the process seemingly transports the subject to a bygone era, 125 years ago. The surface noises produced by the sound inscription process, the surface marks and also imperfections in the wax substance create a patina or scrim of noises that force you to listen more closely to the recording. These acoustic recordings are also very impressionistic, they capture the essence of a sound remarkably well, but the missing frequencies, the fragility and faintness, all work on the imagination to fill in what might be missing as well as evoking the past. I always liken the listening experience to the recalling of memory, as opposed to modern electrical reproduction where you hear a virtual copy. Then there are the acoustic cylinder recordings of electronic music: when reproduced on the phonograph, it will sound as if the machine has transformed into an automaton - the electrically generated music becomes mechanical.
Why do you feel it is important to keep old recording techniques alive?
It’s not only a question of importance solely for historical research. There are musicians who work with old recording techniques and technology in order to recreate a specific sound, say of 1950s rockabilly records, the most impressive musician and recordist in this field being Louis Durham. Then there are those such as Paul Morris (Paul Morris Music) and Duncan Miller (Vulcan Records) who have devoted much of their lives to cylinder recording and manufacture of blank cylinders through a fascination with the medium. These individuals trade in nostalgia, but it shows that there is a lively commercial demand that keeps a range of supposedly obsolete recording methods alive, such as from radio, TV and film national archives, individual collectors, artists and the pop industry.
Learning about how recordings were made can help to inform archivists and technicians on how best to transfer the physical records to a digital format. It helps to have a deeper, more comprehensive, understanding of the medium you preserve and archive. Re-enacting early recording techniques, learning about how they were made, also can lead to a greater appreciation of the recordings and the ingenuity that went into making them. While the technology has survived in museums and collections and may therefore be studied and reconstructed if necessary, generations of skilled technicians who operated the equipment and made the recordings are dying out. We are losing a huge amount of tacit knowledge and it is important to engage these former recordists in research, to document their experiences and involve them as expert advisers in historical re-enactment projects.
The historical practice of ‘music on the bones’ involves recording music straight onto x-ray film. Can you describe what this was all about?
In post-war Soviet Russia, certain musics were banned, such as western jazz, rock and roll and even music by Russian emigres. Enterprising music devotees took it upon themselves to make such recordings available by copying forbidden records or radio broadcasts direct-to-disc, using discarded x-ray film as the blank recording medium, thus producing home-made flexi discs. They went as far as making the recording lathes and equipment from scratch, apparently modelled on a portable German Telefunken machine looted by Red Army soldiers during the war. What’s remarkable is that these bootleg records were made in their many thousands, each one individually cut or embossed in real-time. They were nicknamed ‘bones’ or ‘ribs’ records after the images on the x-ray film but are better known as ‘roentgenizdat’. While today we have a similarly flourishing DIY recording scene, where people share knowledge and skills to help construct disc recording lathes, in those days such activity in Russia could land you in a Gulag camp. The government campaigned against the bootleggers and some individuals received stiff prison sentences, only to continue making illegal records after release. The motivation wasn’t money but love of music and a desire to share it. The practice stopped, unsurprisingly, after tape machines became available in the Soviet Union during the 1950s. X-Ray Audio is a project initiated by musician Stephen Coates and photographer Paul Heartfield who have researched the history of roentgenizdat, collected the records and interviewed some surviving bootlegers and their former customers. They have created a touring exhibition, published a book and have staged events both in the UK and abroad. My role is in the recreation of x-ray recording using a vintage lathe during our live events where we have invited a variety of musicians to participate. There’s more information on the X-Ray Audio website.
This repurposing of media, using photographic material as the ground for a grooved sound recording, forms a part of my ongoing artistic practice. I am also making an edition of x-ray records in collaboration with the vocalist Ute Wassermann.
What do you feel ‘experimental’/’avant-garde’ music’s place is in contemporary arts, including pop-culture?
I remember when ‘experimental,’ improvised and avant-garde music still existed very much outside of mainstream culture. It used to horrify people, especially other musicians. These days it’s became more respectable; it’s studied, researched, institutionalised. While it’s good that people are no longer stigmatised or marginalised for making music that’s different, I think that the contemporary avant-garde has long lost its radical nature. But you ask if today’s pop culture can be radicalised by avant-garde music? I don’t think so. Noise music and industrial bands are the antithesis of pop; live coding requires a long attention span while silent or quiet musics are just not cathartic enough.
Is there a message within your music – if not to simply explore sound?
Messages from the dead are hidden within the surface noises of my cylinder recordings - WEVP (Wax Embalmed Voice Phenomenon).
Any message is left to the listener’s imagination. I don’t set out to make programme or rhetorical music, but I often collaborate with a poet or use texts or voices and there are often rhetorical concepts that underpin the work. In my solo performances where I use ‘found sound’ I will often structure it with non-musical narratives, but these are not made known to the public. I do get inspired by research and this definitely influences my music-making. Perhaps the most obvious use of metaphor and symbolism happens in my historically inspired sound installation pieces, where I compose for an array of autonomously sounding, antiquated music machines, instruments and other objects.
Do you have any recommendations of composers/artists to look out for in the next year?
These are only a few that come to mind and I’m sorry to all those friends and colleagues who I’ve missed out.
Aleks will be performing with Larry Achiampong at the British Library Sound Archive on Tuesday 12th July! Find out more about the free even here>>

The concept of opting for outsource human resources OKC is simple; when you move a large portion or all of your HR processes to an external vendor, it can help you reduce costs, improve service levels and help your internal Human Resources personnel shift their attention from payroll and pensions to various business-critical strategies. We at Partners HR have supported businesses from various industries with our human resources Oklahoma solutions.
How You Benefit
There are a number of different ways in which HR outsourcing can benefit your organization:
This is probably one of the main reasons why a lot of companies opt for Outsource human resources OKC solutions. In case of a staff cutback, an organization does not want to cut back their customer-facing personnel. Its also why they tend to outsource some other staffing functions and HR is one of them. When you hand over your HR function to a third party provider, it doesn’t always mean that you’re showing your in-house personnel the door. On the other hand, it means that the latter would be able to focus on other critical functions of the department. On average an organization can anticipate 20%-30% cost savings when they choose to hire outsourced HR personnel.
2. Focus on Your Core Business
While pushing paper and sifting through emails are key aspects of an HR employee’s job responsibilities, these can also make the people transgress from their core competencies. When companies outsource their HR requirements, the internal staff is able to shift their focus from all these mundane tasks to more mission-critical ones. When you reduce the administrative tasks to be done, the HR staff are able to focus on activities that have a higher value
3. Ease of Compliance
Today, most HR teams have been transformed by the developing policies and programs to ensure that the company is in full compliance with all types of existing laws. When you choose to hire the compliance expertise of outsource human resources OKC personnel, you have peace of mind that all these aspects will be managed without any slip-ups.
4. Access To High-Level Best Practices
Most HR department’s find it very difficult to get out of the drudgery of issuing forms an abiding by the newly-released policies year after year. Sometimes, this can render your internal staff’s processes and best practices out of date. In comparison, an outsource HR company has vast experience from and can provide recommendations on different ways to improve the processes within your company, which becomes a smart thing to do.
5. Overall Employee Satisfaction
Regardless of whether it’s the easy access to the latest survey tools that these companies offer clients or the anonymity that employees enjoy, and outsourcing HR functions boosts employee satisfaction, companies improve management practices, improve retention rates and uplift morale.
If you want to know more about our outsource human resources OKC services, contact us at Partners HR.

Connoisseurs of le cinema de Broken Lizard can take modest consolation that this ode to "cold, fresh joy" marks a distinct rebound for the Colgate University-spawned comedy troupe from the dregs of Club Dread and The Dukes of Hazzard. A pair of brewsky-loving brothers (Paul Soter and Erik Stolhanske) travel to Munich to scatter the ashes of their dear old dad (Donald Sutherland), where they stumble upon the titular Olympiad of inebriation and, after getting their asses whooped, vow revenge. Topped off with politically incorrect potshots at the Fatherland (characters escorted offscreen and shot, a jackboot-shape stein) and an impressively idiotic litany of drinking games (beer pong, trick quarters, the line chug), Beerfest bubbles with the cheeky irreverence of early John Landis and David Zucker. Yet, like almost every other American screen comedy of the moment, it's far too long in the tooth, with a scattershot final half-hour that seems the work of an editor battling a bad hangover. The Lizards are a likable bunch, but in the pantheon of pilsner-scented comic pleasure, Strange Brew's immortal McKenzie brothers could chug them under the table with one liver tied behind their backs.

Adios Mexicana; North America's oldest airline ceases operations
After struggling against the odds for over three weeks, Mexicana de Aviacion, on 27-Aug-2010 announced that all operations, including those of the group’s regional subsidiaries, MexicanaClick and MexicanaLink, would cease on 28-aug-2010. The not-unexpected outcome was attributed by Mexicana’s new owners, Tenedora K to “the group’s delicate financial situation when it changed owners a week ago, compounded by failure to reach agreements that would allow for the capitalisation of its three airlines.”
Overwhelming debt – and perhaps mishandling of the crisis – made further operations impossible
The new management, under the potential rescue consortium, Tenedora K, set out the resasons for its failure to revive the fortunes of Mexicana in the following terms:
- “Grupo Mexicana’s fragile financial situation, which has deteriorated further over the last four weeks due to the previous management’s decision to suspend ticket sales, forcing the company to continue operating in the interests of passengers without receiving any revenue.
- No substantial agreements were reached to give companies in the Group long-term viability.
- Lack of effectiveness in the insolvency (Concurso Mercantil) process intended to protect additional financial resources available to the company so it could to continue operating.
- Given the uncertainty of the situation, certain suppliers have begun demanding advanced payment of services that are essential to the airlines’ operations.”
Mexicana’s website tells the story
Adios to a venerable, if not very efficient airline
It was always going to be an uphill battle to recover, once the word spread about the carrier’s near collapse and bankruptcy applications, and the usual credit squeeze problems eventually appear to have killed any opportunity of a new life for the airline group, North America’s longest surviving.
As always, there is a very human side to this sort of collapse. To use management’s own words, “Today’s decision is a painful one for the 8,000-strong Grupo Mexicana family, but we will continue seeking out ways of securing the company’s long-term financial viability, so our passengers can once again enjoy the quality services they are accustomed to. We hope to be back in the air soon……”
Sadly that hope appears to be little more than forlorn at this stage.
MexicanaClick and MexicanaLink – an asset sale?
The service suspension has also grounded the two, reportedly profit making, regional subsidiaries - a factor that will be painful for the country’s smaller cities. However, given the local importance of these services, there would appear to be a reasonable expectation that these will be reconstituted in some form or other.
Whether this will be in the process of bankruptcy protection or in an asset sale is another issue. From what little information is available, it would appear that the first course of action may no longer be available. If an asset sale becomes the solution of choice, the Tendora K investors may even sniff the possibility of a profit (as they appear to have paid a very small amount to acquire the rights to Mexicana – perhaps not unreasonable where they would also inherit the carrier’s debt mountain), although this becomes legally complex.
oneworld to move to fill the gaps?
When Japan Airlines went into bankruptcy protection in Jan-2010, the one world partners rallied around to provide a range of supportive measures to help the Japanese flag carrier to survive. This was apparently not the case with Mexicana. The oneworld website today, 30-Aug-2010, still offers Mexicana as a member, still without qualification – “Mexicana, the leading airline in Mexico and Central America, became part of oneworld on 10 November 2009. Its subsidiaries MexicanaClick and MexicanaLink joined the alliance at the same time, as affiliate members. Between them, these three airlines serve more than 65 destinations in some 15 countries.”
As we have noted previously, Mexicana’s woes are however passed on to its oneworld partners, particularly those which have grown to rely on connections and feed traffic that Mexican have delivered and which now become unreliable or disappear altogether. But oneworld, as well as its competitors, have the possibility to make corrections in order to fill the void.
In a review on 17-Aug-2010, “Mexicana bankruptcy protection stalls; decline opens opportunities for others”, CAPA reviewed some of the immediate potential ramifications of the airline’s collapse and withdrawal from markets.
We shall provide a final assessment of the post-collapse status in a later report.
Mexicana’s last wave?

Jones Day again recognized among "Fearsome Foursome" in BTI Litigation Outlook Report 2022
The global law firm Jones Day has again been ranked among the "Fearsome Foursome" —the law firms that clients would least like to see as opposing counsel—according to the BTI Litigation Outlook 2022: Post-Pandemic and Beyond report, published this month by the BTI Consulting Group, Inc. The report is based solely on in-depth interviews with leading legal decision makers at Fortune 1000 companies, and ranks Jones Day in all nine of its litigation categories:
- Intellectual Property
- Class Action
- Securities & Finance
- Complex Employment
- Product Liability
- Complex Commercial
"General counsel and in-house litigation leaders recognize that Jones Day has the depth of legal talent and global scale to aggressively represent our clients in high-stakes matters anywhere around the globe," said Stephanie Parker, who co-leads Jones Day's Business & Tort Litigation Practice. "We will continue to make necessary investments to attract premier trial lawyers worldwide and support those lawyers with the resources they need to serve our clients with excellence."
"We are grateful that in-house counsel and executives at America's largest companies have once again identified Jones Day as an elite law firm for all types of commercial litigation," said Michael Gray, who serves as Co-Client Affairs Partner for the Firm. "This further illustrates why our clients trust us with their most important business disputes, torts, and civil litigation—from counseling through trial and appeal—in jurisdictions all over the world."
This is the eighth time Jones Day has been named to BTI's Fearsome Foursome list and this report marks the latest indication from clients about the Firm's extensive capabilities. Earlier this year, Jones Day earned "Most Recommended" status—for the 19th consecutive year—in BTI's "Most Recommended Law Firms" report for 2021. BTI has ranked the Firm #1 in its "Client Service A-Team" survey for each of the past five years. And most recently, Jones Day was named among BTI's M&A Powerhouse law firms for being one of "the leading law firms best suited to meet the transactional needs of clients."
To identify the 2022 "Fearsome Foursome," BTI conducted interviews between March 10 and September 16, 2021, asking 350 general counsel and in-house litigation heads which law firms they would least like to see on the other side of the table. The majority, unaided, named Jones Day and the other three firms on the list. BTI's analysis of current and future trends in litigation provided in the 2022 Litigation Outlook report is based on more than 20,000 interviews spanning 20 years with corporate counsel and other legal decision makers.

Tour de France winner Bradley Wiggins has been hospitalized after being struck by a car during a training ride in Eccleston, England, on Wednesday, and is said to have injured his ribs, hands, and wrist. Wiggins, the first Brit to win the Tour this past summer, is reported to have been hit by a van exiting a service station. “By the time I got there he had moved to a safer place but was still on the ground and he was in a lot of pain,” a nearby garage attendant told the Lancashire Evening Post. “He said he thought he had broken his ribs and while a lot of police cars arrived it was about 15 minutes before the ambulance got there by which time he was blue.” Team Sky has said that it will not issue a statement until Wiggins' condition is better understood. The 32-year-old rider had a banner year, winning the Olympic time trial, the Critérium du Dauphiné, and the Tour de Romandie.

Illinois dentists provide procedures and techniques that enhance the appearance of smiles. These services eliminate hindrances that could make the smile displeasing such as unwanted stains and damage. Cosmetic Dentistry Services Orland Park IL provide these patients with everything they need to achieve the best smile possible for the patient.
How Do Veneers Help Dental Patients?
Veneers are a thin device that is affixed to the outside of the tooth enamel. The dentist uses these devices to correct simple damage such as a chip or break. They also use them to cover up discoloration that isn’t eliminated through brushing. These devices are also used to correct slight alignment issues that are addressed by reshaping the teeth.
What is Dental Bonding?
Dental bonding is a procedure used to reconstruct damaged teeth. The dentist uses a composite resin to fill in cavities and broken sections of the tooth. The resin is reshaped and filed to look like natural teeth. Once the dentist achieves the preferred shape, they apply an ultraviolet light to cure the resin. This produces a strong replacement for the tooth.
The Brilliance of Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening treatments involve the application of peroxide solutions to lift and remove stains. The dentist applies the solution to each tooth individually. They use an ultraviolet light to maximize whitening potential. The dentist determines if the patient needs additional treatments to remove stubborn stains. They also provide a schedule for future treatments to maintain the whiteness of the tooth enamel.
Replacing Missing Teeth More Permanently
Dental implants are the most viable choice for replacing teeth permanently. The dentist installs these devices to connect to a titanium root with an abutment. The tooth itself is a crown that connects to these installations. The end results are a natural looking tooth that is affixed permanently into the jawbone.
Illinois dental patients acquire additional opportunities to correct aesthetic issues affecting their teeth. These opportunities could include the installation of devices to correct damage or to enhance the smile. Dental patients who wish to acquire Cosmetic Dentistry Services Orland Park IL to improve their smile should contact RK Smiles for more information today.

ABUJA, Niger, May 21 (UPI) -- About 120 insurgents were arrested in northern Nigeria as they planned the funeral of a commander killed earlier in the week, military officials say.
The arrests came Monday in the Borno state capital of Maiduguri, where military authorities have relaxed a 24-hour curfew after they said the security situation in the state had improved, the Nigerian Tribune reported Tuesday.
Brig. Gen. Chris Olukolade, director of defense information in Abuja, confirmed the arrests, adding that government troops had spotted a few shallow graves believed to be those of insurgents who had been hurriedly buried as government forces advanced.
He said the militants appeared to have fled toward Chad and the Niger Republic, but denied reports civilians had fled into the same countries. Photographs taken and used by the media that purportedly showed such migrations were "questionable," he said.
The police commissioner for the Federal Capital Territory, the area surrounding the national capital of Abuja, warned Monday that civilians fleeing the conflict in the north were flooding into Abuja, stressing the ability of local officials to deal with the influx.
Military officials eased the round-the-clock curfew in Yobe and Borno states that had left residents without access to food or water since it was imposed late last week.
In Yobe, residents now must stay off the streets only between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. In Borno, the curfew has been shortened to 5 p.m. to 7 a.m.

Calamity Hill Vineyard and Farm is located in the Eola-Amity Hills AVA in the beautiful Willamette Valley of Northwestern Oregon.
Our small vineyard and olive planting is at an elevation of 480 to 530 feet. We enjoy a view of the Willamette Valley with the Cascades and Mount Hood in the distance.
Our climate is mild due to our proximity to the Pacific Ocean (only 50 miles away by road). In summer we enjoy a perfect combination of warm days and cool nights which allows our area to grow/produce some of the very finest Pinot Noir wines in the world.
Calamity Hill is among the smallest vineyards producing wine for sale in Oregon. We are so small we don’t talk about acreage planted. Instead, we focus on each grapevine – 1910 in total. Our vineyard was planted in May of 2005, and covers about 1.75 acres of land.
Our original planting of Pinot Gris was 390 vines. In the Fall of 2008, we added an additional 110 vines. All are the 152 clone on 3309 rootstock. Our Pinot Noir, totaling 1410 vines, consists of five combinations of clone and rootstock. Pommard and 777 clones were grafted onto 3309 and 101-14 rootstocks, and the 115 clone is on Riparia Gliore rootstock.
We now have a total of 1410 Pinot Noir and 500 Pinot Gris vines. Pending growing conditions, each vintage, we expect to produce about 50 cases of Pinot Noir, 50 cases of Pinot Gris and about 25 cases of Rosé of Pinot Noir. In spectacular years, we will consider making a reserve wine, if the vintage deserves that additional cost of new oak and a year or two more aging time before release. To date, we have produced a Black Label Reserve Pinot Noir from the 2012 and 2014 crops. Starting with the 2015 vintage we will only make our pinot in the way we have made our 2012 and 2014 Black Label Reserve, i.e. we will make the very best wine possible from our harvest whether that means more or less oak, more or less time in barrel or bottle, we will do it.
Our rows are planted north-south. The property slopes gently to the North-North East. You will find very few vineyards that slope North in the Willamette Valley. The downside is that we have to work harder and let the fruit hang longer to get enough maturity and sugars in cool years. The upside is that our cool site produces better acids which are quite noticeable, especially in our Pinot Gris. The farm is made up entirely of deep Jory soils, ideal for farming pinot noir and pinot gris grapes.
We baby our vines and allow them carry less fruit than they are capable of carrying. But, by dropping much of the fruit, what remains stands a better chance of fully maturing and developing the great flavors we want.”

Thin Tapes are thinner, softer, invisible, and seamless.
Each Tape in bundle includes 20 single pieces and is 50 grams of hair.
We recommend 3-4 bundles (150-200 grams) for full head tape in installs.
Consult with your licensed professional to determine the recommended weight of hair needed for your install prior to making your purchase.
Tape-in extensions are for professional use only, applying them yourself or going to an untrained hairstylist will result in improper application and possible hair loss.
Tape in extensions can last up to 5-10 weeks but this will vary for each individual depending upon your daily lifestyle.
After the initial application you should refrain from working out, swimming or washing your hair for 48 hours to allow the adhesive to settle.
Tape in extensions are not a protective hair style.
Tape in extensions are recommended for individuals with healthy (non relaxed hair) that is heat trained.
Tape in extensions ARE NOT recommended for individuals experiencing any hair loss, breakage or thinning.
We recommend bi-weekly maintenance and keeping your hair free of any oils and product build up as this will shorten the lifespan of your tape ins. Oils and excessive product use will cause your tapes to slide out.
Do not apply conditioner or flat irons to the weft of the tape during your maintenance appointments. Apply conditioner only below the weft line.
We recommend tape ins to be removed by a licensed professional. We recommend using removal products specifically designed for tape ins.
We will not be held liable for hair loss encountered by improper installation and/or removal.

Lawrence, along with three of Nashville’s top songwriters Casey Beathard, Rick Huckaby and Mark Nesler, will take the stage Nov. 2 for an evening of musical entertainment at the Wilson County Expo Center.
It will benefit the Keith Edmonds Foundation, a local nonprofit that works to assist and empower child abuse victims.
Lawrence, a Wilson County resident, is well known for hits “Time Marches On,” “Sticks and Stones,” “Paint Me a Birmingham” and “If the World Had a Front Porch.”
His studio albums have accounted for more than 40 singles on the Billboard country music charts, with eight of those reaching No. 1.
Beathard has penned hits for many of Nashville’s best artists, including Trace Atkins, Gary Allan, Tracy Byrd and Billy Currington. He was named BMI Country Songwriter of the Year in 2004 and 2008. He was honored by BMI as co-writer of Lawrence’s No. 1 single “Find Out Who Your Friends Are.” Other hits to his credit include Eric Church’s “Like a Wrecking Ball,” “The Outsiders” and “Like Jesus Does.”
Nesler’s first No. 1 hit “Just to See You Smile” recorded by Tim McGraw, spent six weeks in the No. 1 spot on Billboard’s country music charts.
Nashville singer, songwriter and guitar player Rick “Huck” Huckaby is credited with a sound like no other in country music. The accomplished acoustic guitarist has traveled with Lawrence, as well as Tanya Tucker, Joe Diffie and Mark Chestnut, performing and playing guitar.
“This is a rare opportunity to bring the type of event to Wilson County that you would typically have to go to Nashville to experience,” said Keith Edmonds, founder of the Keith Edmonds Foundation. “We appreciate Tracy and his talented friends’ willingness to donate their time and talent to help us in our work with victims of child abuse.”
Tickets for Southern Stars and Mason Jars are $125, which includes admission to the show, dinner catered by Sammy B’s and valet parking. A cash bar will be available.
Doors open at 6 p.m., with dinner at 6:30 p.m., and the show will begin at 7 p.m.
Tickets for the Country Stars and Mason Jars show are available at keithedmondsfoundation.org

Today’s lamest headline is thanks to Discovery, which will soon announce a new docu-series called “Weed Wars,” featuring marijuana activist Steve DeAngelo and his work at the Oakland Harborside Health Center, the country’s largest pot dispensary.
The show will follow the journey of the plant from germination to harvesting to sales at Harborside, which has opened up a second location in San Jose despite “constant police monitoring and security sweeps,” says to the network. [EW]
So I guess the police sweeps are the “war” aspect of “Weed Wars”? It seems like every other reality show is some kind of war. “Storage Wars.” “Whale Wars.” “Cupcake Wars.” “Wedding Cake Wars.” The only war seems to be the one against irony. If TV networks named movies, The Social Network would have been called Friendship Wars.

Hiring has changed, big time. Old school recruiting is out, social recruiting is in. I think this is the first time I’ve actually realized just how much. I haven’t had a resume in years. Anyone I’ve hired in the past has been through the network and hired out of opportunity, and not necessarily need.
That’s why this was a relatively new process for me. Instead of asking people what to do, or researching it, I decided to start from scratch and do it the way I thought would be best for a modern hiring process.
But let’s get straight to the question you want the answer to:
How did I get 375k views & 150 candidate applications in 3 days?
Don’t believe me?
Here are the stats after the first 3 days:
*Doesn’t include the dozen or so that I received straight to my inbox*
I got 375k views on my job post, leading to over 150 applications in the first 3 days, all while building goodwill in the community (well, except with one person who I’ll get to later in the series).
Even more impressive, I could probably happily hire about 30 of them. Some are really, really good. It was very hard to whittle it down to 10, to 4, to 2, to 1. I’m not complaining. This is a GREAT problem to have.
So how exactly did it happen?
It’s very important for us to hire through the network. I’d say this would be the same for your business, but clearly the lowest hanging fruit hires are in your network.
These people are familiar with your business and the ecosystem you work within. They also have multiple common connections and value similar things to what you and your business value.
So the first thing I did was to rewrite our company’s core values. This was needed anyway as we’ve grown in headcount and mission quite a bit since the beginning. Once these were written, I had the basis for our job post.
The job post consisted of our core values, mission, and role. As you can see, we care about things that normal, good human beings care about. This is geared towards who we want to hire, and it’s important to hire people who value the same things as your business and current employees.
After that, I made a similar Google Form for the application, as you can see here. Yes, it’s super short, and I didn’t ask for resumes or anything other than their LinkedIn, start date, and homebase location. Why?
Simple. Your LinkedIn is your resume in 2017, especially in sales. If you’re proud of the work you do, it should be on display. This not only shows your competence, but also your passion and dedication.
Start date and homebase are to further weed out people who aren’t based on a US timezone and who can’t start until after October. You know they’ll apply, so this helps disqualify them quickly.
The next step was to get this out to the network.
Here’s the LinkedIn post that I wrote for it.
“Today is a bittersweet day. A little over two years ago I posted on LinkedIn that I was looking for our first sales hire, second full time hire overall.
I received quite a few responses for a small company. One eager fella caught my eye. He was junior, but I put him through some homework and he passed. I hired him and told him if you put in two years with me, you’ll get whatever job you want.
This week, Jake Spear did. He’s going to be a Sales Manager at one of the fastest growing B2B companies in LA, and will be working with some amazing VPs Kevin Dorsey and Dan Salazar.
That’s the dream for me. To build a mini-mafia like the guys at PayPal. You put in time with Sales Hacker, and we’ll be a stepping stone to a successful career.
So today I look for our next amazing salesperson. Give me two years, and I’ll give you an education that will set you on a path you really can’t get anywhere else.
You’ll work closely with me, and other Founders, VP Sales, and VP Marketing. So whether your next step is to start your own company, or be a leader at one in hyper-growth mode, you’ll be ready.
We’re growing fast, are bootstrapped, and have incredible momentum.
Will likely hire through the network, so please send your top salespeople our way!
Apply Here – https://lnkd.in/dDHUPwK”
The key elements of the post are:
- Vulnerability and honesty.
- Praise for previous and current employees.
- Emphasis on what’s in it for them and what makes this opportunity unique.
- Why our company, why our business. Elude to our mission/core values.
- Clear way to apply and link to the job post.
If you follow this model, I truly believe you can find the best talent in your employee’s networks.
Stay tuned for Part 2 being posted tomorrow!

ORLEANS — A 32-year-old man is wanted by police on charges of larceny and possession of heroin after not showing up for his arraignment Friday, according to the Orleans Police Department.
Police arrested Brian Taylor, of Orleans, on warrants during a motor vehicle stop Thursday. He allegedly stole several credit cards and charged thousands of dollars to them and sold stolen construction equipment at a pawn shop, a department statement says.
During the arrest, police also found Taylor in possession of heroin, the statement says.
Taylor was due to be arraigned in Orleans District Court on all those charges Friday but did not appear, police said.
Police believe he is still on Cape Cod.
They ask that anyone with information on his whereabouts contact their local police department.

Transcript of General Assembly and Welcome Session at “Building Trust on the Web” Consumer Reports WebWatch’s First National Summit on Web Credibility
Speaker: Jim Guest, President and CEO, Consumers Union
Good morning and thanks very much for joining us for Consumer Reports WebWatch’s first national summit on Web credibility, “Building Trust on the Web.”I’m Jim Guest, President and Chief Executive Officer of Consumers Union, publisher ofConsumer Reports andConsumerReports.org. As the head of this organization, I am very proud to have Consumer Reports WebWatch as a grant-funded project of Consumers Union. I’m pleased to see so many of you who’ve joined us today to learn about, and further the mission of, Consumer Reports WebWatch, which is to improve the quality and the credibility of information on the Internet and promote the adoption of best practices industry-wide. Consumer Reports WebWatch has developed guidelines for Web sitesto follow based on critical, consumer-driven criteria — to name a few: full disclosure, truth and transparency, accuracy, and privacy. The guidelines, by the way, are on the Consumer Reports WebWatch site,www.consumerwebwatch.org, and you have copies in your agenda packets. The work of Consumer Reports WebWatch is a natural extension of Consumers Union’s mission. For nearly seven decades, we’ve evaluated products and services through objective, expert, and unbiased testing and research; informed the public of our findings through our flagship publication Consumer Reports magazine, our Web site ConsumerReports.org, our special publications, and our TV and radio services. And we’ve protected consumers by championing their interests. Just like Consumer Reports and ConsumerReports.org, Consumer Reports WebWatch is independent and non-profit, accepts no advertising, and empowers consumers to make the most informed choices in the marketplace. And as you here today know better than anyone, one of the newest and most complicated marketplaces is the World Wide Web — or, as it’s sometimes called, “The Wild, Wild Web.” Now it’s easy for consumers to know and understand the difference between being in a library and being in a retail store. But it’s much more difficult to navigate the online marketplace, where the traditional rules do not always apply, and the distinction between news and advertising is not always clear. Launched almost exactly one year ago, Consumer Reports WebWatch was created to help consumers make their way through the maze of this complex, online world. The actual concept for starting a Web credibility project based at Consumers Union came about five years ago after the Project for Excellence in Journalism conference, sponsored by The Pew Charitable Trusts. At that time, print and new media journalists agreed there was a need to create effective standards to ensure appropriate separation of editorial content, advertising, and e-commerce on the Web. From there, Consumers Union secured grant funding from The Pew Charitable Trusts, the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation and the Open Society Institute — and it’s their ongoing support that has made Consumer Reports WebWatch’s vital research and this conference possible. Since that time the Consumer Reports WebWatch team has done a lot of work towards developing standards that can help build trust on the Web. And today we’re looking to all of you — leading business executives, Web publishers and decision-makers — to make the goals of this important endeavor a reality, and establish greater confidence in consumers’ online experiences. The truth is, we still have a long way to go. Today Consumer Reports WebWatch is unveiling key findings from three new research reports in the areas of health, travel, and search engine use that all have significant implications for Web credibility. While you will hear about these reports in further detail later today, I wanted to highlight several of the key findings. Through an evaluation of dozens of health Web sites, the Health Improvement Institute, in conjunction with Consumer Reports WebWatch, found more than 20 different guidelines governing these sites and a lack of consistency among them. Even more troubling was that some sites that claimed to be following particular guidelines were not actually adhering to them. In fact, of the Web sites that displayed the logo of the Health on the Net code — signifying that they subscribed to that set of principles — only 38 percent actually complied. With so many consumers relying on the Web for critical health advice, this is highly disturbing. Last year, Consumer Reports WebWatch found in its first quantitative study of 1,500 Internet savvy Americans that 60 percent did not know that many of these search engines take fees to list some sites more prominently than others in their search results. Consumer Reports WebWatch’s new report studied the effect on consumers’ behavior after discovering that companies do in fact “pay for placement.” Not only were virtually all the respondents surprised to learn about “pay for placement” — and some actually became visibly upset — but once they were aware of it, they tended not to trust the first result or even the entire first page. Consumers ought to be able to have confidence in their search results, particularly as these engines are often a first stop for those seeking information online. Finally, a note on hotel reservation and booking sites. Travel continues to be among the fastest-growing sectors of e-commerce, and indeed travel-related Web sites are a subject that Consumer Reports WebWatch has explored in depth in the last year. The ultimate conclusion from a joint Consumer Reports WebWatch/Consumer Reports investigation of travel sites, released in June of last year, was that consumers had to shop around for the best deals since no one site proved able to do it all. The same overall conclusion can be drawn of the new report by Consumer Reports WebWatch on hotel reservation and booking sites. While the Web has revolutionized the hotel industry, offering travelers unprecedented convenience and options, there was no single site that consistently provided the least-expensive hotel information. Once again, the responsibility falls to consumers to be vigilant about doing their homework. These findings from all three reports — and other research Consumer Reports WebWatch has undertaken — reinforce for us the importance of this project’s mission to improve the quality of online content through uniform, meaningful, and consistent guidelines; guidelines that will truly enable consumers to believe in the information they read and the sites they visit. Companies’ commitment to establishing this type of credibility — and accountability — would go a long way in building consumer loyalty and trust on the Web. I hope we all leave here today closer to that commitment. I’d just like to take a moment to extend my great thanks to some of the key players who have helped make Consumer Reports WebWatch and today’s summit a reality. First, I’d like to thank all of you for having the interest and taking the time to join in this critical conference today. I’d like to thank our distinguished keynote speakers, Louis Freeh, former director of the FBI, and Dr. Jakob Nielsen, a widely known and respected expert in the field of Web usability, as well as all the panelists that agreed to be here today. I’d like to thank the Online News Association for their great contributions to this conference, and I look forward to their two panels this afternoon. I would also like to thank Consumer Reports WebWatch’s director,Beau Brendler, and his entire staff for their incredible work this past year and for organizing this momentous occasion. Finally, I would like to give a very special thanks to our visionary funders — The Pew Charitable Trusts and the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, and the Open Society Institute. Thank you very much.

MLB Franchise Notes: Dodgers Made Late Play To Sign Prince Fielder
Published January 27, 2012
WINNING IS THE ONLY THING: MLB Network’s Tom Verducci discussed the Tigers signing Fielder and said of Tigers Owner Mike Ilitch, “There’s probably only a handful, maybe a little more, of owners who wake up every morning and they think about winning the World Series every day, even when its January. Ilitch is one of those guys." The Fielder deal "cost a lot of money," and people "are criticizing the money of the deal." But Verducci said, "The fact is he got a guy who he thinks is going to get him -- finally -- his first ring” ("Hot Stove," MLB Network, 1/26).
NOWHERE TO GO BUT DOWN: ESPN N.Y.'s Adam Rubin noted after Mets GM Sandy Alderson "revealed the organization lost $70 million last year, the Mets appear poised to have the biggest one-year payroll drop in MLB history -- roughly $52 million." Rubin indicated the drop "would surpass the former record: $48.4 million by the" Rangers from '03 to '04. The Marlins from '05 to '06 "had the biggest reduction by percentage, trimming nearly 75 percent of their payroll, but the total was $45.4 million." If the Wilpon family is to "survive as Mets owners -- which is their intent -- the austerity likely will continue into future offseasons, meaning fans bear the brunt of the payroll constraints with a less-than-optimal product" (ESPNNY.com, 1/23).
ENERGY BOOST? The co-hosts of MLB Network’s “Hot Stove” discussed the Astros possibly changing their team name during the “Real or Rumor” segment. MLB Network’s Matt Vasgersian said, “New Owner Jim Crane is kicking the tires on the idea of changing the name of the Astros. Real or rumor: The Houston franchise will be renamed the Houston Energy for 2013.” The four co-hosts began laughing, with MLB Network’s Verducci shaking his head and saying, “No, no please. How bad is that? It’s got to be a rumor.” Vasgersian added, “What would you rename that franchise? The Houston Humidity? ... What would you name it? There’s nowhere else to go.” Verducci: “Something plural would be nice, okay?” (“Hot Stove,” MLB Network, 1/26).

Our Appeal to UEFA – Please Keep Ritual Slaughter off the Football Pitch
When we heard the disturbing news that a sheep was slaughtered at the stadium of Kazakh football team Shakhter Karagandy ahead of its Champions League match with Celtic on Tuesday, we sprang into action. PETA appealed to the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) President Michel Platini asking him to ban the ritual slaughter of animals in European football.
UEFA claims to be “forward-looking”, and Platini himself has spoken about its “duty to protect the game, the players and our values”. Those values should certainly include not stabbing animals to death in barbaric pre-match rituals, and we’ve asked Platini to use his influence to make sure that this kind of bloodshed does not happen again in this season’s Champions League and Europa League.
Animal sacrifice has no place in modern society. We’re hoping UEFA will score a winning goal for kindness by taking a strong stand against this violence – for the sake of animals and for the many sports fans who don’t want to see the beautiful game tarnished with blood.

Naturally, we were repulsed and horrified yesterday as we listened to someone relate his story of setting up a campsite at Zion National Park last summer and being swarmed by hundreds(!) of the creeping, disgusting things. Not a couple, a few, or even dozens - he said 'hundreds'.
*(Note to family: If you ever hear me say anything along the lines of "Hey, we should go camping at Zion National Park," please realize that dementia has set in, because I will never, NEVER, utter those words again while I'm in my right mind).
Last night, we further discussed the awfulness of spiders and listed their horrific qualities. (I'm rating this "R" and discretion is advised!)
- They're silent predators
- They stalk and prowl at night
- They bite
- The way they move is just....wrong
- They crunch when squished - again, just wrong
- They have fangs
- They make webs. Ew. Charlotte may have been cute and charming - but that was a cartoon. Normal spiders don't help pigs.
- There are billions of them on this planet. Billions. And they keep reproducing.
So - talking about spiders brought up a decade-long debate that we've had in our house. While I realize there are spiders everywhere - I don't think tarantulas are extremely abundant (am I in denial?).
The following is an actual conversation:
Todd: Tarantulas are everywhere - even in our backyard.
Me: No way. They like hot climates like Arizona and Mexico. There might be some in our mountains or in Southern Utah - but not in our neighborhood.
Darren: It's true - they are all over the place. We probably have hundreds of them in the field behind our house.
This debate has been going on for years! YEARS! Please help us put it to rest and feel free to be especially vocal if you agree with me. ;)

ARGUMENT IN BARRETT TRIAL
IS OVER MOB OR NO MOB
The main clash in the trial of Ed
and Charles t Barrett and Arthur
Friedman yesterday was on the point
of whether there was'a-crowd of peo
ple or any excitement or rioting
around the corner of Fifth avenue
and Washington street the night of
June 15, 1912, when Frank Witt was
shot and killed.
Healy and Day, attorney sfor the
defense, showed that they wil claim
there was a disorderly, violent mob
there, and for that reason one of the
defendants, wearing a star and carry
ing a gun as a special policeman, was
justified in killing Witt.
Ass't State's Attorney O'Brien
came down heavy on this point in his
opening address to the jury and said
all the evidence is positive and be
yond dispute that there ' was no
crowd, that pedestrian street traffic
was normal, and all testimony of po
licemen and police officers will back
up this point.
"At the time of the shooting," said
O'Brien, "there was -nobody on the
car except passengers who had been
on and paid their fares. It was a norf
"raal situation. No people were on the"
car except passengers and they were
mainly women and children. Police
Sergeant Halligan was on duty on
the corner. He was in uniform. There
was such a complete lack of disorder
of any kind that Police Sergeant Hal
ligan was unoccupied, was standing
quiet, when the car on which the
muruer took place came down Fifth
avenue to the corner of Washington.
When Halligan went to the car on the
call of Motorman Enz there were no
people congregated about the car."
Sergeant Halligan testified: "I was
standing on the southwest corner of
Fifth avenue and Washington street
on the night of June 15, 1912. The
street was quiet and normal. There
were no crowds nor excitement, I
saw a car come from the south and
stop about ten feet south of Wash- j
ington street. I heard somebody pall I
T and saw the-raotornian step down
from the car.
"The motorman called to me, 'Offi-1
cer, come over here, there's a man
with his gun in his hand,.' I didn't no
tice any other people, around the car
at the time.
"I heard a shot ana I saw Conduct
or Witt fall from the car, with his
hands raised up over his head. As he
fell downward I heard him cry out
with pain, Tm shot.'
"I ran toward the front of the car
and in the front vestibule I saw three
men with guns. They were Edward
Barrett and Charles Barrett and Ar
thur Friedman. I couldn't pick out
the particular one that shot Witt.
"I fired five shots into the-vestibule.
Officers Flynn and eCdarburg came
running up to assist. The vestib'ule
was closed. Cedarburg put his gun
through a window and ordered them
to come out. They opened the door
then and came out and surrendered.
"Charles Barrett had a bullet
wound and was taken to a hospital.
Ed Barrett and Friedman were taken
to the station. All three of them re
fused to talk or make any kind of ex
planations as to why they were shpot
ing." Halligan's story was brought out
by questions from the state's attorr -ney.
At different points in Jiis story
he was. asked if there was' a crqwd
of any kind or an unusual gathering
of people. He testified: "No people
surrou' 'd the car at any time' and K
expla: that as street conditions
were ordinary before the shooting
and the murder took place .quickly
there was not time for a crowd of
curiosity seekers to collect.
Att'y Day for the defense took ex
ception to O'Brien's clajm 'that evi
dence would show the" defendants re
fused to make any statements or ex
planations when arrested. (' '

Pneumonia in newborns - serious illness
Often pneumonia Pneumonia - Symptoms and Causes in newborns is one of the manifestations of intrauterine infection, which began during pregnancy.But it meets and pneumonia caused by the organism of infection in the baby after birth.In any case, the disease is considered severe.
Why newborn baby can begin pneumonia
cause of inflammation of the lungs (pneumonia) in infants in the first month of life, most often bacterial (eg staphylococcus) or viral (cytomegalovirus, influenza) infection, and impaired patencyrespiratory tract (atelektaznaya, asphyxial).
predisposing factor for the development of pneumonia in infants are prematurity, prolonged hypoxia (insufficient oxygen supply to the tissues of the fetus) during pregnancy, birth injuries Birth injuries - than they threaten your child? .
Staphylococcal pneumonia in newborns
Staphylococcal pneumonia in infants is usually the result of infection in the maternity hospital in non-compliance with its hygienic conditions, as well as the mother in the first days of contact.Sometimes staphylococcal pneumonia develops against the backdrop of a viral infection.
Proceeds pneumonia this hard, with the development of areas of abscess formation in the lungs and with the formation of air pockets as a result of exposure to the toxin of staphylococcus, which dissolves the lung tissue.Often the disease is complicated by pleurisy (inflammation of the serous membrane covering the lungs) and pneumoempyema - accumulation of pus and air in the pleural cavity.Pneumoempyema formed by the destruction of the capsule of the abscess in the lung, the output of pus in the bronchi and pleural cavity formation messages with the lumen of the bronchi.
developing the disease in different ways, depending on the overall condition of the newborn, but most of all as the main manifestation of a high fever, shortness of breath, and sometimes respiratory disorders.Sometimes the severity of the child grows fairly slowly, as the development of changes in the lungs.
pathogens often exhibit resistance (lack of sensitivity) to many types of antibiotics Antibiotics - whether they will help you in the foreseeable future? .This greatly complicates the treatment of the primary stage, when antibiotics are required to appoint the first day of the disease, even before the results of tests on the sensitivity of pathogens to antibiotics.Especially dangerous is the use of antibiotics in the penicillin staphylococcal pneumonia, as they may stimulate the growth of pathogens.
viral pneumonia in infants
viral pneumonia in infants is usually caused by cytomegalovirus (CMV - a form of the herpes virus, type 5), and influenza virus.
CMV is interstitial pneumonia in newborns - ie inflammation in the connective tissue of the lung tissue basis.Most often, such pneumonia develops on the background of generalized cytomegalovirus intrauterine infection.This pneumonia, especially in debilitated newborns can manifest itself only shortness of breath.Some children may develop a dry cough paroxysmal dry cough - whether to worry about it? .The main thing in this situation - a timely diagnosis, but it is not so simple.Treat diseases using antiviral drugs (eg, ganciclovir) and the introduction of immunoglobulin antitsitomegalovirusnogo - tsitotekta.In addition, an antibiotic is prescribed, as in most cases, a viral joins bacterial infection.
respiratory infections from a virus pneumonia in infants often cause flu viruses.Process begins often with interstitial pneumonia, after which it can be complicated by development of focal or segmental pneumonia.Sometimes the cause of this complication is a bacterial infection.
manifested viral pneumonia in infants wheezing, breathlessness, vomiting, diarrhea, sudden bloating, intestinal colic, accompanied by a cry baby.The child becomes pale, bluish coloration of the skin is particularly visible in the nasolabial triangle and the fingers on the hands.
pneumonia in infants associated with airway obstruction
Premature babies cause of pneumonia may be the formation of hyaline membranes (walls) in the small airways (bronchioles) and alveoli (sacs at the ends of the bronchi).This pneumonia called asphyxial and runs very hard, including the development of atelectasis (spadenie) and emphysema (a dramatic expansion of the alveoli) of individual sections of the lung.
Pneumonia in infants with congenital pulmonary atelectasis or inhaled large amounts of amniotic fluid leak is usually very heavy and require mechanical ventilation.
Pneumonia in newborns - is always a serious disease.

After watching the TV series Rome I was wondering how much was historically accurate so I downloaded this book. The first half was very interesting and gives a unique view of Caesar Augustus's rise to power. The second half of the book was a bit confusing at times because the author jumped back and forth on the time line. Overall it was a good book and well narrated. It made the historical figure seem more like a living, breathing human rather than the stoic figure so often depicted in marble.
I rather enjoyed this book once i got past the narrators voice. Definitely worth getting if you want to know about Roman History.
I'm not a big history buff, so it has to be interesting in order for me to hang in there with it.
The author makes Roman history fascinating and interesting.
I highly recommend this book!
I enjoyed this book, and I adore the narrator's British accent. The book contains detailed information about Roman lives in and around 40 BC as well as Augustus' personal and political life, although I have to admit, after Actium, the book seemed a little dull and I struggled to finish the last third of the book, but it's still very informative nonetheless.
Tell us about yourself! I am addicted to Audio Books I read them all the time in the car, doing dishes, ironing, What ever.
Lots of good evalution. I enjoyed his take on the data. I liked the way he helped me understand the Roman look at life. He sort of debunked some of the sensational myth.
This is an extremely well written fictionalized account of one of the most fascinating historical figures who ever lived. Interestingly, very germane to present day US. That being said, and although I very much like to learn through reading, the delivery of this material was very dry, more like a history lesson than a novel.
So, if you're looking to be entertained, this may not be for you. If you're looking to be informed, you'll be pleased.
Told as a story and not a dry recitation of facts.
see above. I never could get into the book enough to finish it.
He did not
I might as well be sitting in a class, listening to a lecture for all the entertainment value. I'm sure he knows his subject matter, but I couldn't make a real person of this character as delivered. I want to be entertained, not advised.
This was a long and all to often boring story. Small pieces grabbed my attention but the story failed to draw me in.
After watching Rome on TV, wanted to learn more about what happened after Julius Ceaser. This book provided that follow up in an entertaining and thoroigh fashion. Sometime non-fictin can be tedious as a listen, but this book moved along and was read very well.
Addicted to Audible since 2009
I really enjoyed this book. Well written and the narrator was great. Definitely a good listen!

Most iPad users simply use Safari when it comes to searching the web. It’s quick, it’s easy, and it has all of the functionality you could hope for. However, Google has been offering a dedicated search app for some time now. That app just became a slightly more appealing option with a significant update today.
While the universal app brings updates to both the iPhone and iPad, it’s the tablet version that got the best of the new features. The iPad edition now offers the new Google tablet UI, along with Google Instant, side-by-side browsing and searching, full-screen image browsing, and easy Google Apps access.
Google Search is the perfect example of a native app that is competing with your browser for your time. However, unlike most native apps, the experience won’t be much different either way. With a few exceptions, this application is mostly just a wrapper for Google’s web UI for tablets. Why use this over Safari?
If you’re a big user of image search, that could be one good reason. The updated Google Search app lets you swipe through large versions of image results, in a “cover flow” type of format. It’s attractive, intuitive, and can’t be found in a browser:
The side-by-side browsing feature is another one of the nicer bonuses in this update. When looking at search results, tap on a link and that page will slide over from the right. You can then reposition it so that your results are still showing while you browse. It’s clean, simple, and easy:
Whether you will want to use this app over Safari is still debatable. Despite the attractive UI and cool new additions, significant features like Instapaper (or other Read Later) access and iOS 5 Twitter integration are conspicuously missing. If you don’t use these features — and like to have quick access to all things Google — then it may be worth checking out. For the rest of us, you won’t be missing much by sticking with Safari.

My favorite item from E! online Summer Fashion Guide 2011 was this adorable dip-dyed fringe necklace from Juicy Couture!
On a college budget you can't always shell out 98$ for a fabulous necklace so I found a few other budget friendly options .
|Free People ($38.00)|
Lucky for me... my favorite one of the bunch is also the cheapest!!!
This summer, don't be afraid to add a little fringe to your outfit... trust me, it will look good on you. :)

In a recent interview with TV Line, Originals star, Charles Michael Davis, dished on whats coming up for Marcel.
TV Fanatic: This week’s episode looks like a really good one for Marcel and for the viewers that have wanted to see more of his backstory a little bit.
Charles Michael Davis: There are some flashbacks in it which everyone loves.
TVF: How do the flashbacks link back to the present day, where there’s so much going on?
CMD: Everyone is trapped in the compound because the spell and they’re fighting off hunger. And they did a great job of crafting the story from World War I, which we always just kind of wanted to do [and] I was always wondering how they were going to put it together. And so we get to see the flashback when Marcel is fighting off hunger, it will take him back to World War I, and we’ll get to see how he was becoming a leader and sort of fighting off internal and external forces back then.
TVF: How would you say the Marcel we see in the flashbacks is different from the Marcel we’ve gotten to know in the present day?
CMD: I think his hair’s longer. [laughs] When I played it I wanted him to be a little bit more emotional, a little bit more raw, a little bit more to himself, I’m not quite concerned with what’s going on with everybody else…it’s like his growing teenage years.
You know, leaving home and branching out and finding who he is, as opposed to Marcel in present day in more of a mentor to the vampires, like Gia and Josh [and] pretty much the father figure to Davina so he already has responsibilities outside of himself, but in World War I he’s just dealing with himself. He has a different energy about him [and] a different way he kind of carries himself.
TVF: I feel that we’ve known he was in the war but will we see the decision making in that? I’m assuming it’s something he chose to do.
CMD: Yeah. And that’s something that we’ll find out and you’ll get to see in [The Originals Season 2 Episode 11]. Marcel deciding to go off to war and what it means with breaking the news to The Original family. But yeah, that was one of his decisions and I know we saw the return from war in Season 1. When he returns he has a warm welcoming, but anytime a parent has a kid that wants to go off to war, it’s sort of like, “Okay, well I respect your decision. Don’t take drugs. We’ll see you when you come back in the one or two years.”
TVF: Exactly. Don’t get killed, that sort of thing. How was it to shoot some of the World War I scenes with the combat?
CMD: Everyone was really excited about it. When we finally got on location, we had trenches built into the ground that were 6 or 7 deep down and we had mortars. It was kind of like in Tropic Thunder where you just want to blow things up and 15 mortars going off and we’re just walking through all these explosions. [The special effects advisor] gives a big speech beforehand for the safety meeting where he tells everybody, ‘whatever you do, don’t look at the explosions, you will go blind.’
TVF: Is it safe to say there was some serious choreography working around all those explosives?
CMD: We walk the path so that we wouldn’t get blown up. There was this great focus on set from everybody so things didn’t need to be said more than once or twice. We didn’t have to do any extra takes. We treated it like we were shooting a film. So everyone was really, really, really focused and came with like, defensive purpose. Even when we had to get our wardrobe dirty rather than have them dust us down, everyone was like, “No, it’s cool, I’ll roll around in the ground.” Like, ‘I’ll do what I need to do. We’ll make it real.’
TVF: Back to the present day, we saw Marcel getting a little bit busy with Cami in the beginning of the season but not much has happened since. Is there any romance heating up for him?
CMD: I think he’s taking a liking to Gia, so I don’t know if anything is quite romantic just yet but I think that he liked Gia from the start with how she was a warrior. And then as far as Cami goes, I think they’re obviously both a little preoccupied. You can’t even get out of the compound. There’s no making whoopee there. So there’ll be romance in the future maybe but not in the near future.
TVF: From what we saw last week, the vampires and werewolves are really starting to go at it with each other. Will that continue this week?
CMD: Yeah, for sure. Being trapped in there with time running down and also the hunger increasing, you build a lot of tension and so you’ll see that. So the whole episode will be filled with this sort of rising tension of everyone losing it on the inside and just wanting to eat Kol or Kaleb. Then you got the werewolves in there.
TVF: How did you feel challenged differently in this episode and moving forward?
CMD: This upcoming episode was a big turning point for me creatively about some things that I’ve kind of been sitting and wanting to do and so they became real and everything else has just been icing on the cake. It opens up more possibilities now, especially now, not dealing with the Rebekah storyline as much and also losing New Orleans to Klaus. It’s a rebuilding period. We have a third season so I’m pretty excited about that.
TVF: Looking ahead to later this season or even season three, what would be your hope for Marcel?
CMD: I’d like to see him build up to his inner circle again, to see him really become even more of a leader and see him patch up his relationship with Davina. I’d like to see him really go make a play again for New Orleans, like 100 percent, fully in. And then maybe if he got some super powers, I’m always game for that.
TVF: What super power would you like?
CMD: I don’t know, I mean, they already have mind control. I guess he doesn’t need claws like Wolverine. If he could shoot laser beams out of his eyes that would probably be helpful. But other than that, I don’t know. I guess he already is kind of a super hero.
TVF: I’m thinking like maybe we need to get you a guest spot on The Flash and get the laser beams shooting out of your eyes.
CMD: I guess that’s my new mission is to get a crossover on The Flash. I talked to Justin Baldoni about a crossover with Jane The Virgin. Use some of the guys that were in his proposal video, show up at the hotel, Marcel and Klaus are checking in, just randomly checking in and then that’s it, that’s the only scene.

The arrival in town of Legendary characters has wreaked havoc with the balance of power. New Giants are entering the lists, while Divine Beings are finally reaching Eternity!
From now on, players who have all the available characters and all the Legendary characters will move up to the Colossus ranking, while players with all the game characters, including Legendary ones, will move up to the Eternal ranking.
To find out more about the different ranks: http://www.urban-rivals.com/game/rules.php?show=ranks
Legend: all cards = more than 100% available card (not counting CR, with CR you will get above 100%)
I don't know if they count LD as available char or not, but
if you have more than 617 available characters, you will get legendary title
you have all non CR cards + all legendary = colossus
you have all cards, CR and non CR + all legendary = eternity
am I right?

Very excited - just booked the flights for my (our) honeymoon (late October) for 6 days in Kauai and 7 on Maui. One of my favorite parts of planning (okay, my ultimate favorite part) is getting on here and colllecting all of the must-hit food spots.
We'll be looking for all meals, and price points that won't break the bank (wedding planning hasn't been cheap!). Special fancy meals, local experiences, and can't-miss holes-in-the-wall. Please share your secret haunts!
Thank you so much, in advance

Part of marketing campaigns for hybrid cars is that they save money on gas. It would appear so, since the typical hybrid car uses less gasoline than a standard automobile with an internal combustion engine. However, a study has just been released which rakes hybrid cars over the coals for wasting a lot of money.
Study: High buy-in costs make some hybrids uneconomical
A new study has been released which calls the cost effectiveness of hybrid cars into question. The study, according to USA Today, was prepared by the website CarGurus.com, and it analyzes several generations of hybrid cars from 2003 to 2010. The study found that many hybrid cars and hybrid SUVs had too high a sticker price, or too high an increase in sticker price over traditional models, for any savings from gas mileage to make up the difference in price. The average difference in sticker price between hybrids and regular models was 17 percent. In order for the savings to pay for the higher sticker price, or opportunity cost, gas prices would effectively have to rise to $7 per gallon.
By the numbers
To calculate if a hybrid pays for itself, look at the difference in sticker price. For example, compare the base Honda Civic Hybrid Sedan versus the base Honda Civic.
- Civic Hybrid Sedan MSRP: $23,950 for the base model
- Civic Sedan MSRP: $15,805 for base model
The price difference is $8,145.
Then look at the combined gas mileage for both. Combined mileage figures are available from the Environmental Protection Agency at fueleconomy.gov. Bear in mind, these figures are entirely based on estimates.
- EPA (estimated) combined mileage of Civic Sedan Hybrid: 41 miles per gallon
- EPA (estimated) combined mileage of Civic Sedan: 29 miles per gallon.
Then, calculate the amount of gas that would be consumed per year. To do that, divide the average number of miles a person drives, conventionally assumed to be around 15,000 miles per year, by the combined mileage of each vehicle.
- Civic Hybrid Sedan: 15,000 miles/41 mpg = 365.85 gallons.
- Civic Sedan: 15,000 miles/29 mpg = 517.24 gallons.
Next, multiply those by the average cost of gasoline, which was $3.54 as of March 11, 2011, according to the Automobile Association of America, or AAA, to determine yearly fuel costs, assuming gas prices stay constant.
- Civic Hybrid Sedan: 365.85 gal. X $3.54 = $1,295.10
- Civic Sedan: 517.24 gal. X $3.54 = $1831.03
- Gas savings = $535.93 per year.
To see how long until the opportunity cost of the hybrid is recouped, divide the price difference by annual savings.
- Savings = $8,145 / $535.93 per year = 15.2 years to recoup the initial cost difference.
To recoup the initial cost of this hybrid, the owner must keep the car a significant amount of time and/or gas prices must rise significantly. Not all hybrids lose money; this is purely an exercise in speculation and does not include cost of repair and upkeep, nor any other savings such as on insurance. Other models of hybrid may save money. However, some have too high a buy-in cost to do so, and if buying one puts you in a position of taking out loans to make it to payday, the most economic decision is to look elsewhere for savings.

Which Brand of Whitey Bulger Film Do You Want to See on the Big Screen?
Johnny Depp is the latest of many Hollywood stars to hop on the Whitey Bulger movie bandwagon. Photos by Helga Esteb / Shutterstock.com (Depp, Affleck, Facinelli) and Jaguar PS / Shutterstock.com (Damon)
This weekend, news broke that Johnny Depp would play Boston mobster Whitey Bulger in Black Mass, a film based on a book about Whitey, the Irish mob in Boston, and the FBI. This Whitey Bulger movie is the third project to emerge since Whitey Bulger’s arrest in June 2011.
About one week after Bulger’s arrest, Deadline reported that Peter Facinelli (a.k.a. Carlisle Cullen from Twilight) was producing the film version of Street Soldier, a memoir by one of Bulger’s associates. In October 2011, Matt Damon confirmed to GQ that he and Ben Affleck planned to make a film about Bulger as well.
Now the question is, which of these three projects are you most excited about?
Whitey Bulger through the years. Can Johnny Depp pull off playing this Boston mobster, or will Boston native Matt Damon do it better?
Black Mass, starring Johnny Depp as Whitey Bulger
Johnny Depp’s project is based on the book Black Mass: The True Story of an Unholy Alliance Between the FBI and the Irish Mob by Dick Lehr and Gerard O’Neill of The Boston Globe. We all know Depp can play just about anyone and anything, but don’t let thoughts of Edward Scissorhands, Willy Wonka, and Jack Sparrow scare you off. Let’s not forget, after all, that in 2009 Depp played bank robber John Dillinger in Public Enemies.
Black Mass is on the fast track to production, which is set to start in May. The film is being produced by Cross Creek Pictures and Exclusive Media and directed by Barry Levinson.
Untitled Ben Affleck-Matt Damon biopic, with Damon starring as Bulger and Affleck directing
Matt and Ben, together again? Be still, our beating hearts. This collaboration still remains our most highly anticipated Whitey Bulger film, mostly because Affleck and Damon are Boston boys, and not unlike the Wahlbergs, the duo always represents Boston right. (Check out our oral history of Good Will Hunting, if you need a refresher.) Affleck and Damon have both worked on films about crime in Boston before—Affleck in the The Town, and Damon in The Departed, in which Jack Nicholson’s character was partly based on Whitey Bulger.
In the Matt-and-Ben version of Whitey Bulger’s story, Damon will play Whitey Bulger, and Affleck will direct. Casey Affleck will also be in the film, and Terence Winter of The Sopranos and Boardwalk Empire is writing the script. Affleck and Damon’s company, Pearl Street Films, is producing the film for Warner Bros. Pictures.
Street Soldier, produced by Peter Facinelli
Yes, Carlisle Cullen from Twilight also has his hat in the ring. When Whitey Bulger was arrested in 2011, Facinelli was supposedly already nine months deep in the film adaptation of the memoir Street Soldier: My Life as an Enforcer for Whitey Bulger and the Boston Irish Mob by Edward Mackenzie Jr. and Phyllis Karas.
Not much news has surfaced since the announcement of the film a year and a half ago, but of all three films in the works, we’re probably least excited about what this Twilight and Nurse Jackie star has in store. Unless of course, he casts Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart as Whitey and Catherine Greig. Then we’ll just be downright appalled.
Street Soldier was announced in June 2011 to be produced by Facinelli Films and Brookstreet Pictures.

Vegetable Painting is one of the most traditional ways of painting. It is a unique form of painting wherein fruits, vegetables, and herbs are used for showcasing your creativity. The different forms of painting can definitely be well executed with the help of paints. Watercolors and acrylic colors can both.
When we talk about the base for vegetable painting, numerous bases can be used. You can use blank paper or even opt for a canvas board. Some may even prefer to use t-shirts, pots, and cardboard for this purpose. Here, we show you different vegetables and elements that can happily be utilized for vegetable paintings.
7 Amazing Vegetable Painting Ideas For You!
Onions can definitely be utilized used in the process of vegetable painting. Onions have a design with different lines that differentiate the vegetable from other vegetables. You can use two different colors. A different color on the lower part of the onion and a unique color for the onion’s upper part. This design can be used for petals of flowers or be used to create an entire flower.
Potatoes prove to be a friendly companion for vegetable painting. They can be cut into any shape and size with the use of a sharp knife. You can cut the potato into half and then draw certain shapes on the potatoes. You can use a pen or a pencil for drawing elements. Once you are done, cut the potato in the shape you have drawn. These shapes could be stars, small trees, or the moon.
Capsicum or bell peppers already look like flowers when it comes to shape and size. They look like flowers from the inside. This vegetable is quite suitable for vegetable painting ideas. Apply paint on the edges of the vegetable and press it towards the base of the painting. You can even use different colors to show a shade in the actual outcome.
4. Lady Finger
Now it is a mini flower in the form of a lady’s finger. They can be used to make designs resembling the petals of a small flower. Bright colors like red, orange, and yellow can be used to display vividness in the painting. Ladyfinger can create a series of flowers in a field or even fill certain shapes with the ladyfinger print.
Broccoli looks like a bunch of mini flowers attached just to a stem. You can use this to create a painting with texture. You can show texture and highlight numerous shades in small dot-like features on the painting.
6. Curry Leaves
While floral paintings rock the concept of vegetable painting, there has to be something to complete the entire painting. You surely need to print the leaves when you print flowers on a base. Curry leaves can be used for showcasing leaves to the colorful flowers. You can even pluck leaves from trees or plants and use them in your painting.
Lemon is yet another perfect element for vegetable painting. It can definitely be used to create paintings for the wall. It can have a repeated texture on the paper or the canvas board that matches your home décor. Lemon has fibers that help in creating a line-like texture in the painting. A single color used for the entire painting would be lovely.
These are some of the most effective ideas you can implement in your paintings. Right from carrots to mini lemons, you can try experimenting with different vegetables. Some fruits and herbs might also be used for vegetable painting. Have fun and experiment with excellent ideas.

After six years of intensive research, veteran Canadian journalist and author, Ellin Bessner, hosts the first discussion about her new book Double Threat at the Todmorden branch of the Royal Canadian Legion on April 21.
Todmorden Branch 10
Jason Mullis waited patiently for the funeral to end. People paid their respects at a coffin draped with the Canadian flag and with flowers all around the gravesite.
“I knew something was different,” he said, “so I stood there for … hours waiting for everyone to leave.”
That’s when he finally spoke to Denise, the mother of the deceased veteran being buried. Mullis simply wanted to offer his assistance to her. He recognized the difficulties she might have faced as the mother of a former soldier who died by suicide.

Ghana Dynasty - African History for AP World History
Ghana Dynasty: 600 - 1200 AD
The Empire of Ghana was founded in 750 C.E. by West African tribes. The capital was located in Koumbi Saleh, which is located in present day countries Mali and Mauritania. They built their economy on trade because of their great accomplishment of gold mining. They also had many other tradable goods. This brought many people to the empire through trans-Saharan trade. The empire spread very quickly and grew very rapidly. The empire became very large and had large cities in its five hundred year long rule.

In 750 C.E, the Ghana Empire began when economic shifts allowed civilizations to form. West African Tribes took advantage of this and thus created Ghana. The Empire was during the height of trade and during the golden age of iron. They mined gold, which caused many people to come for trading. The Empire was very wealthy just as well as the people who lived there. They had a very tight military that could summon twenty thousand soldiers with one command. The entire reign of Ghana was built around trade. Trade allowed the Empire to form. Once settled, they domesticated the camel which helped with trans-Saharan trade. They could not travel across the dessert without worry. They traded salt which helped their bodies replenish due to the heat and helped restore sodium levels throughout the body. Whether people lived there or were traveling, salt was a very large necessity in the intrusive heat. Also traded, was ivory. Not only was it used to build but it was beautiful and many people wanted it. They had many goods that they traded, but the most demanded product was gold. It was a sign of wealth and had a large amount of beauty. Gold was in higher demand then than it is now. So the Empire became very wealthy, and very fast. Because of their traded goods, they could exchange goods on the Silk Road. They could interact with people from the Middle East and Europe while traveling and enjoying travelers.
Reasons for Success of Ghana
The Empire grew due to many contributing factors. The location of the empire was surrounded by African tribes that formed together and joined the empire. The population grew over time due to natural factors. Also, the Empire spread to grow crops and mine gold which helped them with trade. Expanding also helped them gain control of more cities that were the location of trade hubs. This resulted in more wealth from the Empire as a whole. People could own very large amounts of land and thus spreading the empire even further. Along with helping with population growth because the civilization was very wealthy and had a large amount of gold. Trade brought travelers, merchants, and traders. All three brought trading goods and new customs but some of the people decided to stay in Ghana instead of returning to their home. They all saw how happy everyone was in a rich Empire and people wanted to live there too.
Fall of Ghana
This did not last; however, when their General Abu-Bakr died the decline of the Empire of Ghana began. The Empire began to fall apart and was over thrown by the Soninkes.

In 2020, the Fed didn’t issue more than 30% of GDP in new money. Or maybe a bit less. You can look up the Protect Children Not Gun Uvalde Texas Pray For Texas T Shirt . That’s not enough to cause hyperinflation. Hyperinflation is defined as 50% or more price inflation during a 12-month period. 30% of GDP isn’t enough money to cause or sustain a hyperinflation. Now, with the exceptionally large money issuance by the Fed, why hasn’t inflation taken off to, say 10% or more per year? The Fed is issuing enough money for that to happen. For the last two decades, excess money has tended to flow into the asset markets. It boosted real estate prices up through 2007, and since 2010 has boosted a-historical real estate price rises and stock price rises.
You can choose to fuss about it or not. A lot of us choose to still acknowledge Valentine’s day, whether we spend that day complaining that it’s overrated, or not. Whatever the case, in the Protect Children Not Gun Uvalde Texas Pray For Texas T Shirt and developing world at least, Valentine’s is acknowledged by everybody. So obviously that makes it like Nike or Ray-bans, Armani or Gucci, you may not have it, but you still acknowledge it. Now what that means for the word ‘overrated’ is that Valentine’s Day is not overrated. And thus, you can’t judge a day to be overrated for anyone but yourself. And you can’t look for mass approval of your argument that Valentine’s day may be or may not be overrated. Because only you can choose what is meaningful to you, and that can change anytime. All I can tell you is to “Live your own truth.” So if Valentine’s Day this year so far is overrated to you, then yes, for you it currently is overrated. For some RSS fanatic, his truth is that V day is a national horror; it’s not the right truth, but for now as long as he doesn’t force his truth down someone else’s throat, it’s fine FOR HIM. Some ex lover somewhere may have seen a few beautiful Valentine Days, and this V day is painful, that is that person’s truth, in that moment.

Best Protect Children Not Gun Uvalde Texas Pray For Texas T Shirt
People make the Protect Children Not Gun Uvalde Texas Pray For Texas T Shirt to go to Yale for their own unique reasons. There are almost as many reasons as there are Yalies. Mine was simple. I chose between Yale and Harvard. I was a football recruit. My recruiting coach at Yale played for the raiders. I’m a raiders fan. That settled it. Not the most mature decision ever, but I’m glad I made it. I knew a woman at Yale who seemed a bit out of place. Not in a bad way, she was just different. This was the 1980s and she walked around in tie dye shirts and bell bottom jeans. She was very nice and very smart.
The hate is not directed towards his individual sense of Protect Children Not Gun Uvalde Texas Pray For Texas T Shirt solicitude and serenity. Instead, it blossoms out of his emergence through the breaking of the three-point shooting pattern hinges confinement; i.e., backdoor entrance into NBA stardom. Yes, he is a fantastic shooter. But, come on, more magnificent and adroit than Kyle Kookookoover? Not really. The coaches playbook was theb decision of a connived set up, the Warriors` staked roster content, and the current leniency towards shooting in the NBA has laid the blueprints to undeserving talent claim multiple MVPs. Don`t get me wrong, I love watching Steph throwing the rocks on the hardwood. And, as a Raptors` fan, I’ve got some underlying devotion of the family tree. That being said, I have to admit, I kind of hate his artificial superstar status too.

There is a short video about our Inventing the 21st Century exhibition at its home page which includes footage of what our Business & IP Centre looks like and features Samuel Houghton, the boy who invented a new type of broom; Tanya Ewing of Ewgeco, a utilities usage monitor, and Natalie Ellis explaining about her Road Refresher dog bowl invention. I'm there too as the curator.
The 15 products in the exhibition are listed on another page, with longer video clips for the same three inventors.
We have been gratified by the amount of interest the media has shown in the exhibition, and are pleased that many of the inventors in the show have been able to tell their stories on radio. Jim Shaikh of yoomi, the self-warming baby bottle, tells me that on Monday he got more hits on his website than in the past few months put together.

Probably the most alarming aspect pf the outage is that it knocked out the 911 systems in parts of fourteen states. It was reported that calls to 911 might get a busy signal or a recording saying that “all circuits are busy’. In other cases, 911 calls were routed to the wrong 911 center. Some jurisdictions responded to the 911 problems by sending out emergency text messages to citizens providing alternate telephone numbers to dial during an emergency. The 911 service outages prompted FCC Chairman Ajit Pai to call CenturyLink and to open a formal investigation into the outage.
I talked last week to a resident of a small town in Montana who said that the outage was locally devasting. Credit cards wouldn’t work for most of the businesses in town including at gas stations. Businesses that rely on software in the cloud for daily operations like hotels were unable to function. Bank ATMs weren’t working. Customers with CenturyLink landlines had spotty service and mostly could not make or receive phone calls. Worse yet, cellular service in the area largely died, meaning that CenturyLink must have been supplying the broadband circuits supporting the cellular towers.
CenturyLink reported that the outage was caused by a faulty networking management card in a Colorado data center that was “propagating invalid frame packets across devices”. It took the company a long time to isolate the problem, and the final fix involved rebooting much of the network electronics.
Every engineer I’ve spoken to about this says that in today’s world it’s hard to believe that it would take 2 days to isolate and fix a network problem caused by a faulty card. Most network companies operate a system of alarms that instantly notify them when any device or card is having problems. Further, complex networks today are generally supplied with significant redundancy that allows the isolation of troubled components of a network in order to stop the kind of cascading outage that occurred in this case. The engineers all said that it’s almost inconceivable to have a single component like a card in a modern network that could cause such a huge problem. While network centralization can save money, few companies route their whole network through choke points – there are a dozen different strategies to create redundancy and protect against this kind of outage.
Obviously none of us knows any of the facts beyond the short notifications issued by CenturyLink at the end of the outage, so we can only speculate about what happened. Hopefully the FCC enquiry will uncover the facts – and it’s important that they do so, because it’s always possible that the cause of the outage is something that others in the industry need to be concerned about.
I’m only speculating, but my guess is that we are going to find that the company has not implemented best network practices in the legacy telco network. We know that CenturyLink and the other big telcos have been ignoring the legacy networks for decades. We see this all of the time when looking at the conditions of the last mile network, and we’ve always figured that the telcos were also not making the needed investments at the network core.
If this outage was caused by outdated technology and legacy network practices then such outages are likely to recur. Interestingly, CenturyLink also operates one of the more robust enterprise cloud services in the country. That business got a huge shot in the arm through the merger with Level 3, with new management saying that all of their future focus is going to be on the enterprise side of the house. I have to think that this outage didn’t much touch that network, just more likely the legacy network.
One thing for sure is that this outage is making CenturyLink customers look for an alternative. A decade ago the local government in Cook County, Minnesota – the northern-most county in the state – was so frustrated by continued prolonged CenturyLink network outages that they finally built their own fiber-to-the-home network and found alternate routing into and out of the County. I talked to one service provider in Montana who said they’ve been inundated after this recent outage by businesses looking for an alternate to CenturyLink.
We have become so reliant on the Internet that major outages are unacceptable. Much of what we do everyday relies on the cloud. The fact that this outage extended to cellular outages, a crash of 911 systems and the failure of credit card processing demonstrates how pervasive the network is in the background of our daily lives. It’s frightening to think that there are legacy telco networks that have been poorly maintained that can still cause these kinds of widespread problems.
I’m not sure what the fix is for this problem. The FCC supposedly washed their hands of the responsibility for broadband networks – so they might not be willing to tackle any meaningful solutions to prevent future network crashes. Ultimately the fix might the one found by Cook County, Minnesota – communities finding their own network solutions that bypass the legacy networks.

Most social media professionals are aware that along with sharing curated content and posts it is also extremely important to share your created content and marketing messages at appropriate levels. Though some mistakenly post only their promotional posts, combining sales messaging content with selfless, relevant and interesting posts your audience will find valuable is an essential part of any social media strategy.
It’s perfectly alright to promote your brand and offers within social media. In fact, if you’re using social media for marketing, that should be one of the reasons you’re there in the first place. The issue becomes when and how often you post promotional messages, not if you do.
Many industry leaders tend to state that an effective ratio of shared/curated content is best at a level of somewhere between 75% to 85% of a marketers posts. The remaining 15% to 25% can be made up of your promotional, sales messages and created content. The idea is that since this is SOCIAL media, the goal is to provide selfless value to your audience, and that is done by sharing content and posts that they find valuable, not just your posts. This practice tends to start conversations with your community members. When this value based process is repeated over time, relationships develop that make people more open to what you actually do.
One of the challenges that social media marketers, brands and agencies have related to their marketing messages is not knowing all of the content and messaging they have available to share. This obstacle is magnified due to the fact that spreadsheets and Word documents are frequently the organizational tools used for this purpose. Not only does this make it extremely inefficient, it also tends to spread out workflow across multiple people, documents and platforms. This unorganized and disjointed process often results in less than optimal results, missed opportunities and an inability to take advantage of legacy content and messaging that could be utilized with improved effect.
These human and time intensive processes are often some of the biggest obstacles social media marketers have to deal with when it comes to consistent messaging and real revenue results within their social media marketing efforts. There are some specific steps to take that will diminish these issues and they all start with ONE.
Do you know what you have to share?
Let’s be specific here. What makes up your “what you have to share”?
Examples of social media marketing, sales and/or promotional posts are things like;
- Your home page
- Secondary website pages (About us, location)
- Individual Product/Service pages
- Your main blog home page
- Specific legacy or evergreen blog posts
- Landing/Signup pages
- Your other social profiles
- Specific created graphics and pictures
- Email newsletter list subscription pages
- Your text only quotes/sales messages
What URLs do you have that contain these kinds of posting opportunities?
- Your Website
- Your YouTube Channel
- Your Blog
- Your Facebook Page
- Your Facebook Page images
- Instagram pics
The intent of marketing and promotional messages in your social stream
should be to drive traffic to your offers, content and landing pages in an attempt to either;
- Increase traffic
- Convert traffic
- Drive sales/leads
- Educate on products/services you offer
As we stated previously, one of the biggest challenges facing social media marketers is efficiently and effectively managing marketing posts. This was one of the reasons that we created the Bundle Post Social Content Management System as an agency. The time-consuming and inefficient methods of managing spreadsheets and Word docs was a nightmare. Something had to change to make it more effective, less time-consuming and require less human resources.
In Part 2 we will discuss how to create and manage a repository of sales messages for social media posting and efficiently implement them within your social media management.

How to Check Name on JAMB Matriculation List for NYSC Mobilization

Research Report: EU capabilities in conflict prevention and peacebuilding: Challenges, strengths and opportunities of a Whole-of-Society approach
This report provides an overview of the research conducted in the framework of the EU supported Whole-of-Society project (WOSCAP) and draws conclusions on strengths, challenges and opportunities of EU capabilities in conflict prevention and peacebuilding. The first chapter of the report summarizes the main objectives of the programme and the different research activities undertaken. In chapter 2 we briefly present the main findings from the country and desk studies and reflect on the ways the political, social and geopolitical context affects EU capabilities. Chapter 3 reflects on the EU capabilities in three policy clusters: Multi-Track Diplomacy (MTD), Governance Reform (GOV), and Security Sector Reform (SSR). Chapter 4 focuses on the five cross-cutting themes that were selected for this study and that are relevant across the country studies and in each of the policy clusters: coherence, ownership, gender, ICT, and civil-military relations. On the basis of the material presented in chapter 2, 3 and 4, the final chapter first critically assesses EU capabilities to fund, to act and to coordinate / cooperate and moves on with a discussion on how EU capabilities can be enhanced by taking a Whole-of-Society approach.
