Washington, Oct. 27 (ANI): Apple could launch iPhone 6 next year in summers.
In a research note, Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster said he expects Apple’s sixth-generation iPhone to come with ‘a larger screen option’, adding that it could be a ‘blockbuster’.
According to the New York Post, the news of early release of iPhone 6 is good news for the phone lovers and potentially for Apple shareholders.
The stock has been sagging over the last 12 months amid slumping sales growth and could use a boost from a ‘blockbuster’ product.
Last quarter, Apple eked out revenues of 35 billion dollars, which were flat from a year earlier.
In addition to the ‘blockbuster’ iPhone 6, Apple could also release brand new products like a watch and television, the report added.

Blessed are the Cheesemakers

First, my own body. Though the milk in
Next, the persecution. First, the stares: it was hard to go anywhere without people glaring at my cheesehead. Then, the questions: “Why are you wearing that foam hat in the shape of a giant cheese wedge on your head?” “Sir, you know you’ll have to take that off for airport security?”
And finally, the misunderstandings. For weeks I searched grocery stores, restaurants and bars for cheese curds so I could relive my past. No one understood me. It’s like I was speaking another language.
What are cheese curds? Heaven in your mouth. Cheese curds are fresh, young cheddar cheese in its natural, random shape before being processed into blocks and aged into store-bought cheese. They have a very small window of eatability and are rarely heard of outside of
Oh, how I long for the days of lactose tolerance, cheesehead freedom and squeaky deep-fried cheese. Unfortunately, to this day, the persecution against cheese-enthusiasts is still rampant.

We’re just a little misunderstood. So grab an udder. Hug a cow. Tell a cheesy joke. Tolerate lactose. And pass the cheese. Just try not to cut it, at least not in public.

Patriots give Mayo five-year extension
DENVER - The Patriots ensured that linebacker Jerod Mayo won’t be going anywhere any time soon, signing him to a five-year contract extension yesterday that will keep him with the team through 2017, a league source confirmed to the Globe.
As is generally their custom, the Patriots did not release a statement on the deal.
The 10th overall pick out of Tennessee in 2008, Mayo’s rookie contract was not set to expire until after the 2012 season. He’s one of the few players to receive an extension in a noncontract year during Bill Belichick’s tenure.
Almost since the day he arrived in Foxborough, Belichick has lauded Mayo’s on-field smarts, instincts, athletic ability, work ethic, leadership, and consistency. Teammates see Mayo as a younger version of Belichick in terms of his approach to the game.
The last Patriots player to receive a contract extension soon after signing a rookie contract was Ty Warren. The defensive end signed a six-year contract when he was drafted in 2003, and was given a five-year extension in August 2007, though he was released during training camp this year.
Vince Wilfork played through his rookie deal and was briefly tagged as the Patriots’ franchise player in 2010 before he received a five-year deal. Logan Mankins had to wait six seasons and a half-year played under a reduced restricted free agent number before he got a six-year contract this August.
Mayo did not have to wait.
The NFL’s Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2008 was a first-team All-Pro last year, making his first Pro Bowl after leading the NFL in tackles with 193 (115 solo). He also recorded two sacks, five pass breakups, three fumble recoveries, and a forced fumble.
Last week against the Redskins, he sealed the game with his second career interception. Mayo’s first pick came a week earlier against Indianapolis.
Mayo missed two games in October because of a sprained medial collateral ligament. He said Friday that the injury is “getting better,’’ but MCL sprains can only fully heal with rest.
Still just 25 years old, the Virginia native has a team-leading 75 tackles and has been credited with four quarterback hits.
Mayo’s base salary this year is just $600,000; in March 2010, his contract was restructured and he received future salary money in an upfront bonus. Because of that, he still counts just over $5 million against the Patriots’ salary cap this season, according to league documents.
His base salary next year is set to be $750,000, though there is an escalator in his contract that could increase that by as much as $800,000. Mayo will still count just over $5 million against the cap, again because of the prorated bonus money.
The Patriots’ next major contract to address is Wes Welker: The receiver is in the final year of the five-year contract he signed upon his arrival in 2007. He has topped 100 receptions in four seasons here, with a low of 86 last season a mere seven months after undergoing surgery for torn knee ligaments. | <urn:uuid:7fd18163-317c-44b2-9c5f-18e64fac2e08> | CC-MAIN-2017-04 | http://archive.boston.com/sports/football/patriots/articles/2011/12/18/patriots_sign_jerod_mayo_to_five_year_contract_extension/ | 2017-01-22T13:14:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-04/segments/1484560281424.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20170116095121-00295-ip-10-171-10-70.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.985526 | 674 |
BEIJING: Four years ago a Hong Kong magazine displayed the photos of 14 Chinese human rights defenders on its cover. ''They fully deserve to be Asia Week's 'People of the Year' because in 2005 they have brought dazzling light to institutional reform,'' the article read inside.
It all now reads like a tombstone inscription for China's 30-year struggle towards the rule of law.
One of the 14 photos was of Gao Zhisheng, who disappeared after releasing a harrowing account of the torture he endured during a previous detention. His wife, Geng Ge, fears he may no longer be alive. Another got run down while riding his bicycle.
In fact, most of the human rights stars of 2005 have since been detained, beaten, debarred or sacked.
''Now it is only me, Pu Zhiqiang and Fan Yafeng,'' said Mo Shaoping, who many regard as the doyen of China's human rights lawyers. ''The others are either in jail or have had their licences removed.''
That was last week. This week Fan Yafeng was sacked from China's most important government thinktank, the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. He isn't taking it personally. There are bigger things at stake.
''I lost my job. That's not my failure; it's a crisis for the Communist Party of China,'' says Professor Fan, a legal scholar, human rights defender and leader of China's informal church networks.
''It means the CCP cannot endure the mainstream views of Chinese society and the international community.''
Until last year there was a sense that China was moving towards greater political transparency and accountability. There was an assumption that Chinese governance would have to evolve as society grew ever more complex and demanding.
But the weight of evidence suggests the Party is tightening its control everywhere. This trend is most apparent in the institution many believe to be most important to China's future.
''Development of the legal system is reversing, it is definitely not progressing,'' says Mo. ''The paramount national interest is that China is run by the rule of law. You can't enforce rules of the game by arresting people.''
Mo's motto is to be meticulously professional and keep his head down. While he represents Falun Gong and other dissidents he has always worked within the system, but the system is making that harder all the time.
''In the past I, like many others, have been contacted on the implementation of judicial independence and transparency and asked about the path forward,'' he says. ''But this has stopped in the past two years.''
The tide of China's legal development turned in 2006 when the Politics and Law Committee decreed that ''professionalism'' was no longer a worthy ambition within the judicial system.
In 2007 President Hu Jintao replaced ''professionalism'' with the ''three supremes'', which dictates that all judicial work should uphold the interests of the Party, then society and lastly the law.
Last year a security apparatchik from the Politics and Law Committee, Wang Shengjun, was promoted to president of China's Supreme Court even though he had never studied law.
This year most of the Beijing lawyers who regularly take on politically challenging ''rights protection'' cases failed to get their practising certificates renewed. And the security apparatus has been detaining, kidnapping and beating up people closer to the legal profession's mainstream.
''It didn't use to be the case that people would 'disappear'. They would be arrested,'' said Nicholas Bequelin, an expert on China's legal system at Human Rights Watch. ''That reflects the growing import of the security apparatus and the fact they can brush off demands from other agencies.''
Legal professionals who pride themselves on working with the system are being treated as dissidents. It's a process that can be self-fulfilling.
Professor Fan believes China is closer to its ''crisis point'' than many believe. ''The Government has given up all political reforms. Their only aim is to protect their own interests.''
But the harder the Communist Party drives democracy away, the faster it will come, he says.
''If the Government always wants to put down China's civil society movement, then maybe China's democracy will come very quickly. Only if they withdraw can they gain more political support from the people and international society.''
Xu Zhiyong, a rising star who also featured on the Asia Week cover and heads a public advocacy centre called Gongmeng, was beaten and arrested on tax charges in July before being released on a form of bail.
''I am an optimist in the long run,'' he says. ''More and more lawyers are prepared to defend dissidents and stand up for independence of the courts and help people fight for their rights.''
But what if the Government increases its repression even faster? ''If China reaches crisis point it won't be because of the economy,'' says Xu. ''It will be because of the accumulated rage from social injustices.'' | <urn:uuid:922bfbe2-3092-4f2b-a35a-a960e57de39a> | CC-MAIN-2014-23 | http://www.smh.com.au/world/people-power-loses-to-chinas-harsh-justice-20091106-i25l.html | 2014-07-29T06:05:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-23/segments/1406510265454.51/warc/CC-MAIN-20140728011745-00327-ip-10-146-231-18.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.966678 | 1,017 |
Many investors tend to be overconfident, immodest, underestimate the level of knowledge and information that they need in order to minimise their risk. They tend to heavily rely on free property investment reports without understanding what they are actually getting and what they are missing.
We all know the saying: ‘when you pay peanuts, you get monkeys’. This is the truth particularly when you make an investment property decision and you need independent research so you can make a decision what to do, and sometimes, even more importantly, what NOT to do.
In order to understand what you really get, we need to break down the property reports into components.
This is basic for property reports and there are dozens of data sources that are used by a company like RiskWise Property Review. In addition, people are not aware of the costs associated with high quality data sources and a research team. These costs start with hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, and could easily reach the one million mark.
It is important to understand that the data that the big 4 banks and RiskWise use, is completely different from the data that is included in the ‘Free Property Reports’, and that the amount of data analysis and research invested by companies like RiskWise Property Review is very high.
Get a custom-made report by a professional property investment reviewer for smarter property decisions.
Is the data in the ‘Free Property Reports’ complete?
Few of the very basic things that an investor should looks for, from a data perspective, are:
- What is the risk associated with poor / negative capital growth for each property;
- How many properties are in the pipeline and what is the additional % to the current stock
- What is the estimated future projection of capital growth
Without this data, the investment approach is often very naïve’ relying only on historical data and assuming that the future capital growth will be very similar to the historical growth – this could be a major mistake.
And what about the Information ?
In Financial Services there is a saying ‘data without information is meaningless’ and the meaning here is that even when we have the data, there is crucial information that we need in order to make a decision. One of the prime examples is macro-economic factors, and in particular, sustainable economic growth. Based on our research, where an area enjoys and is projected to continue enjoying sustainable economic growth, dwelling prices carry a low level of risk and in 83% they also outperform the benchmark.
Another information-related factor is the dwelling preference of owner occupiers for property type and configuration. Without having this information, the risk of poor capital growth is significantly higher.
Who is the ‘Research Team’ ?
We often get ‘Free Property Reports’ and ‘Free Research Reports’ from real estate agents. This research has been conducted by their ‘Research Team’. The key questions are:
- who are they – a respectable company NEVER hides their research team
- what their qualifications are – advanced degrees, strong research background, typically from very large companies is what you’re looking for; and
- what have they published lately – that’s what we, research companies, do: share our research results with the public
Are the reports biased ?
Many of the free property reports and the free research reports are provided by real estate agents who have a vested interested in the deal. Therefore, some of the reports might be biased, presenting only the good attributes, ignoring the major risk factors. A prime example of that is units in Brisbane CBD, that is high on our 100 Danger Zones report. Research reports that are provided by real estate agents who sell properties in the area do not contain information regarding the high level of risk that property investors are facing.
Does the report meet your specific needs?
The answer to this question is very often ‘no’ due to the simple fact that every investor has a very specific investment strategy, circumstances, risk appetite and financial position.
While, from a first view, ‘Free Property Reports’ look like a good source of information, if they are not tailored to your specific needs and circumstances, their added value is very limited.
Top tips on property reports:
- Get your research reports from a research company that specializes in research (that’s why it is called a research company)
- Ensure that each report contains, amongst other information, the risk rating associated with your planned investment and the number of properties in the pipeline and a risk of oversupply
- Ensure that in addition to data, the report contains information, including macro-economic factors on the area
- Check who is the ‘Research Team’, and particularly the Head of Research, and what their education, qualification and experience are, and which articles have been published in the media in the recent months
- Do not rely only on a report that is provided to you by a real estate agent who has a vested interest in the deal
- Ensure that the report meets your specific strategy, needs, circumstances and risk appetite. If you rely on a report that does not meet all of these criteria, by using this report, you’ll run in the wrong jungle

The path to becoming a professional hostage negotiator can be a winding one. There are training courses and certifications, but an important aspect of dealing with a crisis is experience. Someone fresh out of college could take every negotiator training course ever offered and still not get a job as a negotiator. The bedrock of a negotiator's career is several years working as a law-enforcement officer (whether with the police department, FBI or other law-enforcement group) or in the military and dealing with crisis situations on a regular basis. "You hone your skills as an officer, because you talk to people all the time. A lot of the people you talk to, while not in an 'official crisis,' are in some kind of crisis situation," said Lt. Schmidt. "You learn a lot just from active listening and interacting with people."
Education and training is important as well, and there are plenty of courses being offered to help police officers, FBI agents, military personnel and others learn how to negotiate in a hostage situation. The Public Agency Training Council (PATC), a private company that offers training courses to law-enforcement agencies, has courses on dealing with emotionally unstable persons, specific tactics for use in negotiations and complete negotiator courses (see PATC: Hostage Courses). The International Association of Hostage Negotiators also sponsors seminars and training courses (see Training Schedule and Information).
A hostage negotiator's training is never complete. The FBI and other agencies offer recurring training seminars. The Cheektowaga Police Department's crisis negotiators have teamed up with other law-enforcement agencies in their region to form an association that meets several times each year to offer critiques, suggestions and support.
To explore one example of the training process for a hostage negotiator and find out what type of factors trainees are evaluated on, see the Hostage Negotiation Study Guide 2003 developed jointly by the International Association of Chiefs of Police and the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center.

I often receive requests from experts who would like to gain speaker experience so they can eventually speak at BlogWorld, but they’re not quite sure how to go about doing this. The thought of public speaking can be overwhelming and figuring out where to start can be equally as daunting. For many, it’s simply a confidence thing as most folks just want practice in order to get over their nerves.
Truthfully, it’s not difficult to find places to speak. The hardest part is getting started.
1. Try Video
If you don’t want to jump in with both feet, trying getting your toes wet with video. They beauty of video is that it will allow for you to practice as much as you want while receiving feedback from others. Create videos to teach others how to do what you do, or use video in replacement for text in your blog posts. Granted, uploading something to YouTube isn’t the same thing as standing in front of a room full of people, but it’s a starting point and will help you to gain some confidence.
2. Participate in Webinars
Shy types appreciate giving webinars. No one has to see you, they won’t know if you’re nervous or even if your shirt is inside out. Attendees aren’t the only ones who benefit from attending webinars. Speakers also gain experience, establish expertise and get their name out there. Don’t forget to allow Q&A’s in order to practice interacting with your audience and make sure there’s a feedback survey sent to attendees so you know how you did.
3. Go local
My first speaking gig was at a blogging seminar at my local library. Libraries, networking groups, business organizations and even businesses bring in speakers all the time. Get your start with one of these local locations. Many towns want to work with and showcase their local experts.
4. Take some classes or join a local chapter of Toastmasters
Community colleges all offer public speaking classes and noted public speakers also offer classes and seminars. Your local chapter of Toastmasters will even give you people to practice on. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with taking lessons in order to learn to be an effective public speaker and gain confidence.
5. Speak at smaller conferences and networking events
If you don’t feel confident starting big, start small. Look to see where the smaller events are being held. Many businesses hold conferences just for their employees. Also local chapters of business organizations hold conferences and seminars all the time. Find out where the small events are in your neck of the world and grow your network and expertise. Gain experience and go bigger. | <urn:uuid:339bf3e5-11be-4709-bc9c-533dd3170a48> | CC-MAIN-2019-51 | https://www.blogworld.com/2011/01/17/5-tips-for-gaining-speaker-experience/ | 2019-12-08T17:17:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-51/segments/1575540511946.30/warc/CC-MAIN-20191208150734-20191208174734-00053.warc.gz | en | 0.957746 | 557 |

Wedding eye makeup is not only about shadow and liner. It begins from a good foundation, like the whole bridal look itself. For longer enduring wedding makeup, a clear canvas, foundation or ideally wedding eye makeup primer should be applied to the entire of the lid. This will give something for the shadows and liner to stick to, and give extra durable power. Airbrushing a base for the eyes is another great way to acquire a flawless base. Airbrushing the entire foundation for bridal makeup is much suggested.
Wedding makeup is all about having good look in the flesh, and in photographs. For the photographs, the use of makeup requires being heavier than normal, but this doesn’t have to mean looking overdone. There are actually three main areas that require extra attention. They are brow bone, middle lid, and inner corner of the eye. These are the areas that necessitate catching the light, and if done properly, will make eyes look defined, multi-dimensional and shining in pictures, and certainly in the flesh.
For the brow, you have to choose a highlight color that is reflective, but not glittery. A good pearl white or cream is wonderful. The highlight doesn’t require going along the whole brow bone. It just requires going in the area directly below the arch of the brow-this will draw the light to that area, making the brows look more defined, and giving the face dimension.
And for the middle lid, after you have applied the eye makeup look, then take some of the same highlight color as used on the brow bone and dab it into the center of the eyelid. This will not be completely noticeable to the eye, but the reflective pearlescent particles will catch the light in a photo and create the eyes look wider and brighter.
When focus on the inner corner of the eye, you can apply the same highlight color again, dab it into the inner corner of the eye, over the tear duct. This can be blended a little along the bottom lash line as well. This touch gives glow to the look, and gives a fresh feeling to the eyes. In photographs this will also counter any tendency for eyes to disappear into a dimensionless shape, as the points of reflective material at the three key areas will catch the light and bring the eyes alive.
If you take these points into your consideration, then wedding eye makeup can really be the centerpiece of your look that will create not only a beautiful look in the flesh, but a beautiful look in the flash. And it is seen as though you will be looking at the pictures for years to come, both are similarly vital. | <urn:uuid:d7079350-76bb-4ed7-9058-ecb70cfbbced> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://cherrymarry.com/2012/04/tips-for-wedding-eye-makeup/ | 2021-03-08T12:49:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178375439.77/warc/CC-MAIN-20210308112849-20210308142849-00051.warc.gz | en | 0.928323 | 540 |

Over the years, we’ve thought of hundreds of ways of protesting the system which allows LGBT individuals to be second-class citizens.
We’ve thought of protesting by not paying taxes — which could land you in jail. We’ve chained ourselves to the marriage bureaus — which just winds up with cut chains and a night in jail, maybe a few photos on a gay blog or two.
We’ve even tried “Day Without a Gay” where LGBT people took the day off of work to show just how numerous we are — but in an economy like this one, we all need a paycheck, gay and straight alike.
Then, earlier this week, in a rather simple statement and wonderful declaration of his second-class citizenship, openly gay New York musical theatre actor and model, Jonathan D. Lovitz challenged one of his civic duties.
Jonathan posted on his Facebook page about his experience while being considered for jury duty:
“Had an intense day at jury duty. During voir dire we were asked who would not be impartial. I raised my hand and said ‘since I can’t get married or adopt a child in the state of New York, I can’t possibly be an impartial judge of a citizen when I am considered a second class one in the eyes of this justice system.’ You wouldn’t believe how people in the room reacted. Was I wrong for saying that?”
Lovitz was excused from jury duty, as the moment you say you cannot be impartial you will undoubtedly be excused.
So Lovitz not only got to stand up for himself as a self-respecting gay man, but he also got out of jury duty for the next few years!
I highly recommend this same action for any LGBT individual that gets called in for service.
If you want to take the chance and take part in a little civil disobedience, I’d even recommend sending in a letter along with your summons explaining your position — although this may be an arrest-risk. Your best bet is to show up and do the same thing Jonathan did.
Lovitz will soon be appearing on the Logo reality series “Set-up Squad.”
Editor’s Note: The state of New York permits single LGBT and joint adoption, as well as second-parent adoption. | <urn:uuid:dc4cb370-9618-4f8e-b460-f9abb252a7db> | CC-MAIN-2017-13 | https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2011/03/want-to-get-out-of-jury-duty-just-say-youre-gay/ | 2017-03-25T11:37:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-13/segments/1490218188924.7/warc/CC-MAIN-20170322212948-00244-ip-10-233-31-227.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.962494 | 489 |
Saying that politicians pander is like saying that water is wet. But some pandering is more egregious than other. This is especially true when candidates who ostensibly believe in smaller government genuflect at the altar of a big-government program simply because it is supported by an important voting block. A classic example is Republicans who want to cut spending on public broadcasting or planned parenthood but shrink from reforming Social Security or Medicare. After all, seniors vote. I shouldn’t be disappointed, but I am.
The latest example of fair-weather principles, is the renewable fuel standard, a government mandate that benefits corn farmers in the Mid-West, while driving up the cost of gas and food, and actually harming the environment. But the first step on the road to president is the Iowa Caucus next January. Therefore, we are treated to the spectacle of supposedly free-market GOP candidates trekking to the Iowa Agricultural Summit and pledging their eternal fidelity to ethanol (with the notable exceptions of Ted Cruz and RandPaul).
I write about it in this week’s column for National Review Online:
One note: After the column was published, I was contacted by Marco Rubio’s office. He does indeed have a position on the RFS. He thinks it should be phased out someday, but not now. So add Sen. Rubio to the list of panderers. | <urn:uuid:0df7ba9c-fa4f-45c4-83af-8e479e0276cd> | CC-MAIN-2020-34 | https://tanneronpolicy.com/2015/03/13/the-pandering-begins/ | 2020-08-09T14:51:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-34/segments/1596439738555.33/warc/CC-MAIN-20200809132747-20200809162747-00021.warc.gz | en | 0.951902 | 279 |

- Wedding: June 2013
I’m normally well a bum. I have naturally wavy ugly hair… so i straighten it everysingle day. But thats all i do. It takes me like 5 minutes to straighten and i don’t touch it.
I’m not a girly girl at all, and lets face it i’m married so i really don’t have anyone to impress – my husband likes me all natural anyway. But wowing him would be fun!
But I still come across all those girls that do their makeup every day and their hair and i’m just all blaahhhh…I don’t have very high self confidence so i thought maybe actually “feeling” pretty might help!
So here we go ladies – tips…
I’d like to get those big wavy curls toward the bottom half of my hair… i guess i’ll have to grow out my hair for that though. I heard of ways to curl with a straightner so i might try that. But what hairspray would you use that doesn’t leave your hair like hard and clumpy and will actually hold all day.
But literally i don’t even own makeup and i have no idea where to start. I hate that heavy feel that it gives and it always just clogs my pores and gives me more zits … i have no idea what brands or anything…. Oh and i’m on a budget – like a steep budget so the cheaper the better (or if they sell it at Belk then i have a gift card) I do have some makeup brushes that i got as a gift that i don’t even know what they do. I’m clueless.
Its gotta be easy and not time consuming because i’m a beginner and i’m looking for basics here that are not quite wedding style… and not quite walmart eyeshadow where all i know how to do is make a line. lol | <urn:uuid:28de13c9-6c04-43b3-9e9f-1ec81e0c0f23> | CC-MAIN-2017-17 | http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/looking-for-some-make-up-curly-hair-tips/ | 2017-04-28T10:24:44Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-17/segments/1492917122933.39/warc/CC-MAIN-20170423031202-00042-ip-10-145-167-34.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.944872 | 425 |

This is an excerpt from the 1952 memoirs of the Odessa Film Studio’s legendary first director Mikhail Kapchinsky. The excerpt provides a remarkable historical window on the events that took place in Odessa immediately after the conclusion of the civil war and the implantation of the Bolshevik agenda. This is the first time that any part of Kapchinsky’s memoirs have appeared in English. The physical copy of the memoirs exists in only one manuscript form; it is the first object in Odessa Film Studio Museum’s collection. We thank the Odessa Film Studio for their kindness in allowing us to publish this selection.
Before October 1916, there were about eighty cinemas spread all over Odessa. Large ones, medium ones, small ones. Some were located in former storefronts, with the sidewalks as their lobbies. By 1921, only six movie theaters were left. Projectors were cramped in tiny booths. The reels were played manually. The image, projected onto makeshift screens, moved either too fast (to the delight of schoolboys, the main demographic of the audience – eliciting hoots, hollers, ad stomping) or crawled at a snail’s pace. The wallpaper in the auditoriums was peeling, the ceilings cracked. The floors were covered in a shin-deep layer of sunflower seed shells and other debris. The filaments of small coal lamps barely glowed pink.
Darkness. Filth. Stale air. Dreariness.
Two of the theaters had no seats – the viewers watched the films standing up. Tickets were sold, but in an unrecognizable form. Simple bits of paper with a stamp on it – a stamp no one knew the meaning or provenance of.
Could it really go on like this?
A small squad of like-minded individuals had already gathered in the Odessa Photo and Cinema Committee wanting to discuss this problem – the future Prombank director Saul Levin, film rental specialist Vladimir Ivanovich Karpovski, and Isidor Mikhaylovich Rosenblit.
Mr. Rosenblit deserves an aside of his own, seeing as he was one of the head figures in the Regional Command.
I don’t recall how it stood in the rest of Ukraine, but in Odessa, in 1921 a short campaign entitled “Peaceful revolt” was taking place. The entire party organization of the city took part in the campaign. Members of the bourgeoisie, which were unfortunately (for them) plentiful in the city of Odessa, had their large apartments, precious items, and much of their property confiscated. On the orders of the Government Committee, I headed the commission on reviewing the complaints and petitions connected to the confiscations.
Once, an elderly gentleman in a worn-out two-piece suit came into my office – this gentleman’s last name happened to be Rosenblit. The following is a conversation that took place between him and myself. I do not want the reader to judge me for including it, or to believe that I am including it for some sort of comedic relief. This is simply not the case. The times back then were grim, and there was very little room for levity. Perhaps there will be some critics who will find it to be “excessively Odessan”, that is vulgarly leaning on tropes of Odessan humor. To which I would answer – it is not “excessively” so, it is indeed very accurate. In some essence this conversation captured the realistic air of the times. The words exchanged paint a portrait of a distinct person, a native Odessa who played an important role in the Regional Command.
Without further ado, this is the exchange that took place between us:
“Good day and good health to you!”
“I am listening”
“Should I tell it all at once?”
“Well, between us, I don’t really need anything.”
“Well, you can be on your way then. God be with you.”
“Well, I won’t be able to do that, because as you all say today: God doesn’t exist. At all.”
“What a character,” I thought to myself.
“Where do you work?” I asked him.
“Where could I possibly work, not being a member of a professional union? No one will hire me. I’m not part of the working class, per se. Who would hire me? Would anyone? What do you, yourself think? I am a former capitalist…note that I say former.” he answered.
“Excuse me, but there are many people waiting to be seen…” I told him impatiently.
“They can wait. What do they have to rush for? I am here to make you a compelling offer.”
The strange visitor made himself more comfortable in his chair and continued:
“Young man, you all, the kinds that became the bosses now – you are always running around rushing. Stop a little, rest, otherwise your heart might suffer for it – god forbid.”
Something about this visitor compelled me – I am not sure what it was. And this despite his confession of being a “former capitalism”, something which would make him very unpopular in any circle in those days.
“It can be very useful to hear another person out. Even if you consider him stupid. Listening can yield results. I want to make a proposition to you, and, if God forbid you should not like it then that’s fine. But give me a chance to present it.”
“Have you heard of Mr. Popov’s tobacco factory?” he asked me.
“The one that produces ‘Salve’ cigarettes?”
“Yes, that same one! ‘Salve’ brand cigarettes, famous all over the world. Do you know who was the owner of the majority of the shares? Me. Have you perhaps heard of the Doly perfume factory as well?”
“I have not.”
“How is that possible? Their soap…what a fine soap!” his eyes twinkled.
The strange man kissed his gathered fingers, conveying his high opinion of the Doly soap with a gesture.
“And the Ashkenazy Bank, have you heard of it?”
“Well, all these companies are me. My name is Isidor Mikhaylovich Rosenblit. Will you try to remember it, please? Show me a man in Odessa, or even in Nikolayev, who does not know who Isidor Mikhaylovich is…there is no such man. You will not find him!”
Rosenblit shifted his weight in his chair yet again, getting comfortable. It was beginning to seem that he was planning on staying here a long time.
“In all honesty, between you and me, in absolute honesty – I cannot say I adore this Soviet government of yours…but I must do business. If I cannot do business anymore, I might as well reserve a grave at the Second City Jewish Cemetery…tell me, do you know anything about finance? Don’t answer that. I know that you don’t. I am a non-party member finance specialist. I will tell you honestly, I always lived and worked by this motto – let others talk while you stay quiet. What did I have to talk about? A financer is able to produce money out of thin air. I stay quiet – if someone needs something from me, let them talk and I will listen. I have to admit that when the Soviets came and took even the shirt on my back away from me, that’s when I suddenly became a talkative man. Even my Leia said then – you, Isidor, have become an unbearable chatterbox; watch out so that the Cheka doesn’t come for you. Why would they come for me? – I said. What am I, a counter-revolutionary? No, I am not a counter-revolutionary. Anyone can confirm. Let them ask anyone who knows me.”
“Mr. Rosenblit, can we speed this along perhaps”
“I suppose I can sum it up. I see you are looking at my suit…I bought it at the street market. Your comrades took everything I own. They left my shares, though. They said ‘you can just throw these in the dumpster’. And they were right…no one will take these, even for free. What else is there to say? The war is over, thank God…we’ve gotten rid of the pogrom inciters, Petlyura and Denikin’s men…that’s all very well, but if you think that you can continue to live and prosper without us finance workers, you are very wrong. This is me, Isidor Mikhaylovich, saying this to you. The Soviet government will need banks, accountants…there is no way around it. Mark my words. The economy will revive, buying, selling; it’s no joke in such a huge nation. And your Lenin…well, he is a smart man.”
“I’m still not understanding; how can I be of use to you?” I reiterated.
“Young man, comrade, I believe you misunderstood me. It is not you that can be of use to me, but the other way around. Tell me, are you in charge of the cinemas?”
“Let’s say I am.”
“I know a few things about movies. We lent money to rental offices, even Khanjonkov visited us, and we know about your cinemas. They’re in bad shape, aren’t they? Bringing losses instead of profits. Am I correct? From what I know, the situation is dire. I’ve come to you with a wonderful idea. Don’t hold it against me, an old man, but see – if you have half a brain, you will listen to me.”
I did listen to the idea. Despite my expectations, it was delivered in a short, businesslike, efficient and persuasive manner. I listened to everything Isidor Mikhaylovich Rosenblit – this man, who according to himself was known throughout Odessa and even in Nikolayev – had to say. I listened to him, and I must say, his idea intrigued me.
“Could you return in a week?”
“Why not? It would be my pleasure. Of course I could!”
I was beset by strong emotions, completely and for a long time. Rosenblit’s idea would not let me rest. It held my mind in a vice, burned, boiled, gnawed at me.
I tried everything I could to exorcise Rosenblit the tempter from my mind. It’s a ridiculous idea, I told myself. It’s futile. I’ll get off easy if I’m only laughed at…it could be worse, if it gets to the wrong ears I will never live it down – maybe not even live at all. Try to transport yourself to 1921. Try to understand the atmosphere of the time. Then you will have a clearer image of my predicament.
Rent out our cinemas? We can’t, so what way out is there? Today, six cinemas are on their last breath. Tomorrow, one by one, they will begin dying out.
Of course they wouldn’t allow it, but in the interests of the cinema…the situation truly is dire, after all. I don’t see another solution. Why can’t we at least try it? For six months, maybe even a year? If it doesn’t succeed, we’ll reverse everything. What could go wrong with that?
In dealing with him, Isidor Mikhaylovich Rosenblit turned out to be a decent, honest, and capable man; a skilled finance expert who gave a great deal of his time, talent, and strength to the committee despite being well into his sixties. I worked with him for several years, up until his death.
Now, back to our problem. We’ve already discussed the six Odessa cinemas and their sorry conditions. Where were we to go from there?
We gathered our small collective and thought and thought and thought. We brought up various options, some were instantly and harshly dismissed. Finally, Rosenblit’s suggestion came up for discussion.
The plan consisted of renting the cinemas to their former owners or other private entity on certain conditions and with certain restrictions for a period of one year. They would restore them, provide furniture, and hopefully make them functional and profitable again.
“Are we Bolsheviks or not?” fumed Saul Levin. “Are we going to sell our ideas now? To fatten that capitalist scum, the bourgeois bastards? No! I do not agree!”
“You’re right, Saul. We’re not some kind of petty merchants.”
“If I may say so, comrade Levin” Rosenblit interjected politely and quietly, “I personally have no intentions of buying or selling your ideas, because I do not even understand them. I know one thing – in the Café Fanconi, or the stock market on the corner of Pushkinskaya Street – ideas are not a viable product. They have no value. You might as well give them away for free. Ideas aren’t aspirin or currency. Your six cinemas right now are nothing. They’re not cinemas…they’re laughable, crippled and squalid places. People laugh at them, but Kruglyakov and Shoshnikov (the former owners), despite being a part of the bourgeoisie are smart people who do what they do well. People like us, comrade Saul Levin, stand to learn a lot from them. Am I correct or not? We are giving them walls riddled with holes, filthy floors, rancid squalor – and we will be getting money in return for this. You can disseminate your ideas in your movies, comrade Saul Levin.”
“The walls in the cinema are ideas too! You, comrade Rosenblit, need to familiarize yourself with the party’s ideology,” Levin answered disdainfully.
“Saul, you just said a very stupid thing.”
“I sure hope we don’t get kicked in the teeth for this.”
“We’ll survive. You and I have sturdy teeth.”
Vladimir Ivanovich Karpovsky, worried as always, twirled his long mustache:
“Let’s stop burying our heads in the ground like ostriches. We don’t have the people, the means, the equipment, not even the money for even small-scale renovations. What are our cinemas? They’re pigsties, basically. It’s embarrassing to walk into them.”
We spoke a lot. We fought. We argued. Finally, it was decided that Levin and I should consult with the Regional Committee.
With my voice shaking (because of the implications of our suggestion), I reported to the Regional Committee Secretary the nature of the situation and the details of our argument. Levin conveyed his protests in a way that was perhaps somewhat calmer and more logical than it was at our previous meeting.
“What’s wrong with people more experienced than us working in the cinemas for a while”, I was speaking in a tone perhaps raised too high, “and us receiving six fully renovated movie theaters and all the added experience in return? What’s the risk? Perhaps there is a small one, but risk is a necessity. Cinemas all over Europe bring enormous profits to their owners, and ours simply leech from the government – and they require a lot…how much longer can this go on?”
“Well, you are making some sense. Prepare the material, make a report to the Bureau, we will listen and discuss it then,” responded Comrade Secretary Khatayevich (the future secretary of the Central Committee of the Ukrainian Communist Bolshevik Party).
Twenty-two movie theaters were rented out for the duration of one year. Yes, twenty-two. You might wonder, where did the twenty-two come from, if before it was mentioned that we only had six more or less functioning theaters.
Well, what happened was something truly unexpected. As soon as word spread about the planned rentals, we were overwhelmed by queries from former owners. Vacant buildings in various parts of the city resurfaced as potential movie theaters.
The conditions of the rental were the following:
Complete renovation and the removal of any defects by our engineer. The renter will provide all necessary furniture and equipment. After the expiration of the rental period, the theaters and all the property contained in them will be transferred to the Regional Photo and Film Committee, entirely and without compensation, as per the original agreement. Tickets will be typographically pressed and numbered, verified by the Regional Financial Department, and sold at counters under our approval and control. The Committee receives 25% of the gross profit. We are under no obligation to cover any of the costs related to staff or any other necessity.
Some might consider it superfluous to discuss the restoration of cinemas in three Ukrainian regions within a memoir entitled “By the Black Sea”. After all, the main aim of our recollections is to describe the construction and launch of the Odessa Film Studio – the forerunner of all Ukrainian cinematography.
However, I consider this issue to be one of utmost importance – without a widespread and functional chain of cinemas and the profits stemming from it, all talk about cinematography would be empty blather. We are telling about these movie theaters as an extremely important factor – if not, in fact the decisive one.
The agreement with the renters was notarized by the legal sector of the Odessa Regional Executive Committee.
Theaters in other regional centers, such as Nikolayev, Vinnitsa, Kherson, Kamenetsk – Podolsk, Proskurov, Berdichev, and Elizavetgrad were rented out according to the same set of conditions. In smaller cities, the agreement was somewhat different.
However, when the Regional Command was dealing with movie theaters, no one could even dare dream about the construction of a film studio. We were trying to make our theaters profitable for the government.
The renters renovated and furnished the theaters, and each one was approved by a separate act. The foyers and auditoriums were equipped with chairs and all the necessary equipment. Where it all came from, I have no idea. Perhaps the former owners had stashed it away at the right time.
The streets once again sparkled with colorful movie posters and announcements in that inimitable Odessa style.
In one theater on Moldovanka, we saw a huge and colorful billboard. A severed head and the splayed out dead body of a woman were drawn on it. The title announced, “Doomed Love, or, the Horrors of the Jewish Progroms”. The film showing was a Swedish drama starring the well-known actress Asta Nilssen and the equally famous Morrison.
Did the viewers complain? Not at all. They got used to it.
We were politically naive at the time, or perhaps just due to youth, I was amazed at how we were able to fool these experienced entrepreneurs – they were from the Odessa industry after all!
The cornerstone of our financial success and our lucky charm that Rosenblit said to me once:
“You’re still dressed in this military garb and had a Mauser on your hip just recently, but you know nothing about commerce. Nothing at all, believe me. It wasn’t us that fooled them – quite the opposite.
But times are such that we can’t do without them, and so it is.”
To indicate the utmost necessity to us of Kruglyakov and his ilk, Rosenblit made a slicing motion across his throat with his finger.
Many things were restored – cleanliness, order, new screens, bright lights, curtains, a musical duet of violin and piano in every single theater, and even live performances by musicians in some of the theaters preceding the feature screening (Khudozhestvinniy, Express, Ampir, Utochkin). Ilya Nabatov, Vladimir Koralli, Mikhail Raskatov among others graced the stages of these restored cinemas. The renter Shoshnikov even managed to stage live sound accompaniment in his theater, recreating the sounds of the events on the screen as they happened.
Well, what next? The main thing was missing. Where would we get the films? What we had was obsolete. There was nothing to show. Films are worn out beyond recognition, some are missing titles, scenes are missing, static obscures the images….it is sometimes impossible to understand which movie you are watching.
The renters managed to restore some of the old films. They added introductory frames and subtitles in between the scenes.
But all this is just a drop in the sea. | <urn:uuid:7464bf05-2215-4925-bf16-f95db5380895> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | http://odessareview.com/by-the-black-sea-yakovlich-2/ | 2019-07-19T20:42:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195526359.16/warc/CC-MAIN-20190719202605-20190719224605-00490.warc.gz | en | 0.972054 | 4,553 |

Yes more painted figures for Matt as part of his ever growing Russian Civil war collection. The figures are all 15mm and from Peter Pig. One was slightly damaged on arrival to me, so a very slight repair was carried out. And now it is hardly noticeable and not noticeable at all unless you are actually looking for it!
16 figures in all and while they should have grey and even black lambs wool on the head gear IN ADDITION to the white shown only a true rivet counter would really care about such a thing and having checked with Matt he is happy with the all white sheepskin hats. Again If we were really being picky they should also have white crosses inside the red of their hats but at this scale they would not actually bee seen. So I have left them out. it would be like adding eyes to 15mm figures. I am sure some painters do but in all honesty I do not!
I am back on 28mm figures for a while, both historical and walkers. Starting them all today. So with luck they should be seen by the end of the week.
If you Live in the UK enjoy the Bank Holiday. With luck see you soon.

When it comes to airbrushing away inconveniences, the San Jose Mercury-News can teach those 1938 Soviets a thing or two.
Case in point: their story on suspected serial killer Chris Dorner (complete with handy ‘RACISM’ headline and camo-American flag photo) refers to his “14-page manifesto.” Hmm. 14 you say? I seem to recall it was 22. I wonder where those missing 8 pages vanished.
Luckily the M-N provides a link to their “transcript” of Dorner’s rambling rant.
Oddly enough there seem to be a few words missing that appear in complete version. Words like “gun control.” And “Obama.” And “Hillary,” and “Piers Morgan,” and “NRA,” and “Chris Matthews.”
In fact, the M-N seems to have disappeared an entire 8 pages worth of star-struck mash notes to media celebs and lefty politicians, threats to George Zimmerman, and death wishes to NRA officials.
Well, I suppose it wasn’t that newsworthy, and they were probably running out of pixels. Who am I to question the judgment of professional journalists? | <urn:uuid:a99feb77-633a-4d5f-a913-1893adec055a> | CC-MAIN-2016-36 | http://www.breitbart.com/blog/2013/02/08/the-san-jose-memory-hole/ | 2016-08-28T00:28:19Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-36/segments/1471982932747.45/warc/CC-MAIN-20160823200852-00217-ip-10-153-172-175.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.961317 | 269 |
Sorry, Everyone: Amy Poehler and Will Arnett Broke Up
Well, this one hurts. People reports that Amy Poehler and Will Arnett — two hilarious, attractive, and, above all, normal-seeming people — have split up after nine years of marriage. What?! Nooooo, etc.
The last time we were talking about a celebrity breakup it was Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes a few months back, and this Arnett and Poehler thing is pretty much as far on the opposite end of the spectrum as you can get. Yeah, sure, maybe it’s silly to model your own hopes of a loving coupling not on the long and solid marriage of your grandparents, or any of your immediate loved ones, but on some strangers we only know from TV. But come on! They’re so funny! They were perfect for one another! And, like, my buddy was playing softball in the West Village once and Amy and Will were walking by with their kid and stopped to watch the game for a little while, and he said it was pretty adorable. Meanwhile, People rubs the salt in the wound with this quote from Arnett, from 2009: “The first time I saw her onstage, I said, ‘I’m gonna marry that girl.'”
So it is at this point that I’d like to remind us that just because they’re splitting up doesn’t mean that what they had for all those years — and, by proxy, what we all had — wasn’t real, and won’t be real forever. Also, sorry for preemptively ruining your Friday. | <urn:uuid:93ed2984-5faa-469e-9613-84f6702aad1c> | CC-MAIN-2016-07 | http://grantland.com/hollywood-prospectus/sorry-everyone-amy-poehler-and-will-arnett-broke-up/ | 2016-02-14T12:43:38Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-07/segments/1454701962902.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20160205195242-00016-ip-10-236-182-209.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.973865 | 342 |

LIFE REWARDS ACTION
A blog post by: Alejandro Chabán
Action enables us to transform the invisible into the visible. Good things don’t just fall out of the sky. Without action, there’s no success. Often, I passed up going out with my friends on the weekends because I Knew the next day I wouldn’t be in any condition to exercise and write. This were conscious decisions I made base on my desire to reach my goals.
I stayed focused and that’s why I achieve what I set out to do. I often hear people finish a phrase by saying, “God willing”. Now, I have a strong faith in God, and I know that at the end of the day, His will will be done because He knows what’s best for us. But I also know He can’t do anything for us if we aren’t willing to help ourselves. Just saying “God willing” won’t help us to achieve what we want in life. Everything requires effort, action, desire, and perseverance. I want to emphasize “perseverance” because starting something is much harder than finishing it. Perseverance is a huge part of being successful.
“Action enables us to transform the invisible into the visible”.
People compares themselves to me in a lot of ways and say, “Wow, you’ve really accomplished a lot,” or “Hey, how were you able to grow your company so quickly?” “Chabán, yo came to this country without knowing how to speak English and look at you now.” “Chabán, you’ve managed to keep the weight off. Lucky you!” Friends, I promise you, magic and luck have nothing to do with what I’ve been able to achieve. It’s all about action, effort, perseverance, and patience in my day to day life. God rewards har work. I used to wake up at 3:30 am to go to work and after working on Despierta América, I head to my YES YOU CAN! Office to continue working. I used to work on the weekends because I didn’t have enough time during the week days to work on other projects, like my books, my conferences, and my new YES YOU CAN! Products instead of going out and partying. There is nothing wrong with partying, but to get ahead and reach your goals, you have to commit yourself to hard work and dedication.
If you are not willing to pay the price and sacrifice to reach your goals, then change your goals to something you can achieve. Success in life isn’t measure by what you achieve, but by the obstacles you overcome. Remember, success only happens when your dreams are greater than your excuses. | <urn:uuid:ebbcf5d6-2ac3-4631-91c3-2bd95ec376d4> | CC-MAIN-2020-45 | https://www.alejandrochaban.com/life-rewards-action/ | 2020-10-30T15:49:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107911027.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20201030153002-20201030183002-00395.warc.gz | en | 0.958971 | 600 |

Nestled on the base of Sumas Mountain within the Fraser River Valley is an enthralling spot known as Clayburn Village. One of many things that makes it so particular is that the people who live there perceive its historical past and the importance of preserving it.
I learn one of there contracts and it says when you transfer with out giving 45 days discover the agreement goes null and void so no exit charges are applied, additionally for those who move to completely different utility space… The explanation it’s a must to pay exit charges with a supplier is as a result of by signing a contract for five years they are buying 5 years value of gas all of sudden for you. (that’s how they earn cash, buying in bulk is cheaper). So they should charge and early exit fee to cowl there losses.
I learned all this with my 2 daughters particularly with my youngest who is now in her early 30’s and out on her own and I’m very pleased with her. Letting go is the hardest thing to do. Raising them to be adults in an adult world is a whole lot of work. Children ought to be learning accountability, not play on a regular basis. The need to be taught that there are consequences to every action they take-good or dangerous. That doesn’t get throughout when they’re allowed to do anything they want and never have the responsibility handed right down to them when rising up.

The downside to this idea is that it would require an order of the court docket.

Channing Tatum has officially landed the role of Gambit, aka Remy LeBeau, in an upcoming X-Men spin-off film, a source close to the production has confirmed to BuzzFeed.
Producer Lauren Shuler Donner, who has been overseeing the X-Men films since the franchise kicked off in 2000, confirmed the casting to Total Film at the U.K. premiere of X-Men: Days of Future Past, putting to rest a month's worth of speculation after Tatum himself said that he was in talks with Donner for the role of the popular Cajun card shark at the MTV Movie Awards.
But the role will not be for X-Men: Apocalypse, the sequel to Days of Future Past which is already slated for release in 2016. Instead, Tatum will headline his own Gambit spin-off movie. That film has no set release date — nor does it have a screenplay or director. But in March, Fox did claim dates for a slew of comic book films, including a new Wolverine movie and the sequel to the unreleased Fantastic Four reboot. One of those dates, July 13, 2018, was reserved for a untitled Marvel Comics film, so it may be a while yet before we see Tatum tossing supercharged playing cards as Cajun thief Gambit.

This was a last minute decision for me. I had done the artwork for it and after a brief lapse of reality...it just didn't fit. So I called my friend Dave and asked if I could use one of his sketches I saw a while back. (He's also credited on the left side of the poster.) I redrew the sketch in illustrator....sheepishly going for that delicious Saul Bass look but not trying that hard.
It was fun to just DESIGN the thing. I wasn't worried about line weights, light sources, proportions or anything. It's nice to stray from the boundaries you set up for yourself.
Then I did that MEKONS poster and jumped back into my cage. Discipline is fun too.
i was totally surprised that this was by brian ewing. why? because i'm easily surprised. brian ewing is good. really, really good. nice style switch. and my favorite band name is in this. it's really long, guess which one it is. | <urn:uuid:7b004eb2-1c1f-42fd-8d30-e8b4ed5802aa> | CC-MAIN-2015-32 | http://gigposters.com/comments/9029_Girls_Against_Boys.html | 2015-08-03T07:08:03Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-32/segments/1438042989510.73/warc/CC-MAIN-20150728002309-00305-ip-10-236-191-2.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.99163 | 209 |
We do not test any of our products on animals and never have, we prefer to rely on our knowledge of essential oils, ingredients, plants, flowers and established technical information and professionals to ensure effective and safe products.
We believe there is already a “safe” and known group of product ingredients used in the cosmetics industry which leaveenough scope to be creative and innovative in product formulation without the need for anymore animal testing on new experimental ingredients.
Our team of human volunteers are the only form of testing which we carry out.
Our suppliers each also agree to not to carry out animal testing on the products and ingredients we purchase. We have a self-imposed cut-off date of 2006 (this was the date our cosmetic formulations came into being) although in reality our suppliers normally have animal testing dates far in excess of this or have never tested at all.
In addition to our standard policy, it is also our policy to ensure that no company that purchase our products either in "bulk raw" form or in finished product conducts any form of animal testing. If we find that a company is involved in animal testing in anyway that purchases from us, then we will cease supply immediately. It is a term and condition that by purchasing from Naturallythinking you will not involve yourself or your company in any form of Naturallythinking, any violation of this will be dealt with as per any violation of our terms and conditions.

A novel by Owen Sheers (Faber paperback)
In this country the number of books and films devoted to the two World Wars does not diminish with time perhaps because we now live in a relatively protected environment so have to look back to find times of intensity and challenge. But how would it feel to have one’s country invaded by foreign troops? For many people throughout the world it is not a theoretical question and it haunted me, giving a contemporary relevance to Owen Sheer’s novel, which presupposes the failure of the 1944 Normandy landings and subsequent invasion of Britain.
The author’s spur for writing came from stories he once heard, and subsequently found to be true: in 1940, when invasion had seemed an imminent possibility, a secret unit of resistance fighters was formed among the farmers in the Black Mountains. They were the Auxiliary Units Special Duties section, vowed to absolute secrecy, with bunkers and weapons hidden in the hills in order to sabotage enemy lines. Drawing on this background, Owen Sheers envisages what might have happened had all the seven farmers in the secluded Olgon Valley heeded the call to arms.
The story begins when it gradually dawns on the women that, without a word, their men have disappeared in the night. How were they to cope with the milking, the ploughing and the heavy work, with only each other for support? Survive they could not have done, particularly through the heavy winter, the valley cut off by snow from the rest of the world, had it not been for a small German patrol that came to be stationed in the valley. Under an enlightened officer they begin to offer the women assistance, offers at first only grudgingly and tentatively accepted, though for the men it is a healing experience to work on the land after the rigours of active military service on the front line. News of the war reaches the valley only intermittently: the fall of London, Birmingham captured. As I read the familiar names, and envisaged the loss, it jolted my habitual responses stirring an impulse of patriotism. How would it feel to have foreign troops stationed in our major cities and how could it do other than lead to atrocities perpetrated by each side?
Most of the novel however takes place within the close confines of the valley. The sense in which the women are rooted in the land, and their kinship with the animals that ensure their livelihood, is conveyed with deep conviction. The focus is in close-up: Sarah, the heroine, can feel the indentations in the horsehair mattress where her husband has lain, and experiences that these gradually ease from the landscape of the bed as time passes. She cannot but feel attracted to the educated German officer who can offer practical help and who reconnects her with her young girlhood encounters with poetry and stories that she heard from David Jones while he was staying with Eric Gill and the community of artists at Llanthony Abbey.
In the farmhouse he has requisitioned, Albrecht, the officer, can feel the indentations in the kitchen table that generations of farm hands have made with their elbows. He longs to be able introduce Sarah to the world of art and culture that the war has forced him to abandon, but how can these two, at once attracted to each other but separated by their backgrounds and the circumstances of war, relate to each other? The situation reminded me of the intense way that Irene Nemirovsky treated the subject in Dolce, the second part of Suite Francaise, though that was written under the pressure of the actual German invasion.
How far is it possible to discern the human face beneath the mask of the enemy? When does trust become reprehensible collaboration? It is this territory that the novel so delicately examines, leaving the question open. I felt nourished by the experience of reading this novel and now want to seek out the author’s previous work: http://www.owensheers.co.uk/
This review made me want to read the book. I was, at first, disappointed. Setting the scene, with what seemed- but was it my own impatience? – rather laboured descriptions of that lonely Welsh valley and of the women left to farm without their husbands, took a long time. And yet, I know that country a bit, and love it.
For me, the book came to life with the arrival of the Germans, and then their work together with the abandoned women during the long snowed-in winter, for sheer survival. During this part of my reading I did not worry about the ending- just like the characters in the book. But finally the thaw did come- and contact with the outside world was bound to take place. What would happen? Would old enmities resurface? Who would prove to be the biggest danger- the English/Welsh insurgents, or the German army wondering why that unit had not contacted them for so long? Could the frail but precious resumption of a more human existence by the soldiers survive the effects of war?
The author’s “Afterword” seemed to sound a different note. I found in it the sound of justification: “The struggle against fascism” brings us back to the world of clichés. Assassination led- in actuality, and in the book- to terrible reprisals by the occupying army, the loss of many innocent lives for the sake the death of one enemy. And the “insurgents” of the resistance- in other countries and other times they are called terrorists.
Then I reread the review, and appreciated it all the more. | <urn:uuid:1c77909e-6db5-454f-a974-f11917ad5e48> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.in-between.org.uk/books/resistance/ | 2020-09-22T23:19:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400208095.31/warc/CC-MAIN-20200922224013-20200923014013-00265.warc.gz | en | 0.971467 | 1,159 |
Only 1 Bank Failed the Stress Test
Today after the market closed, the Federal Reserve announced the results of its latest round of stress tests (link opens PDF), which are designed to gauge how well the nation's largest banks would hold up under three hypothetical and increasingly severe economic scenarios.
While there are multiple components to the test, one of the most important looks to the impact that the "severely adverse" scenario will have on the Tier 1 common capital ratios of the nation's 18 largest bank holding companies. The objective is to maintain a level above 5%.
Bank Holding Company
Pre-Test Tier 1 Common Capital Ratio
Post-Test Tier 1 Common Capital Ratio
Bank of America
Bank of New York Mellon
Fifth Third Bancorp
As you can see, all but one of the institutions maintained Tier 1 common capital ratios above the requisite 5% benchmark. The lone exception is Ally Financial, which saw its capital base erode by 79% under the severely adverse scenario, from 7.3%, down to 1.5%.
Conversely, BB&T and the custodial Bank of New York Mellon experienced the least capital erosion, watching their capital levels fall by only 0.1 percentage points.
Of the four traditional too-big-to-fail banks -- JPMorgan, B of A, Citigroup, and Wells Fargo -- Citigroup came out looking the best in terms of Tier 1 common capital, with a post-test ratio of 8.3%. It should be noted, though, that it started at a significantly higher point than the others, going into the test with a ratio of 12.7%. JPMorgan, on the other hand, saw its ratio fall to 6.3%, most likely as a consequence of its significant investment banking operations and global footprint -- and the same happened to Goldman Sachs.
The bank that investors have probably watched the closest, B of A, saw its hard-fought capital base fall by 40%, down to 6.8%. This is notably much better than it did last year, when its post-stress tested capital was an estimated 5.7%.
Looking forward, the big question is whether these results will be good enough to convince the Fed that dividend hikes are in order. Assuming the individual banks don't release this news sooner, investors should learn this next Thursday, giving the tested institutions time to digest the above results and decide whether they'd like to resubmit their capital allocation requests.
In the past, both Citigroup and Bank of America have had such requests denied; however, few analysts, myself included, believe that will happen again this time. Earlier today, the veteran banking analyst Richard Bove predicted that all of the banks are "going to show increases in dividends and the percentage increases could be very big in some cases."
With respect to Citigroup and B of A specifically, Bove went on to note that: "What you're looking for in names like Citigroup and Bank of America is some increase in dividends to certify that the Federal Reserve is not unhappy with them." As I discussed here, noted bank analysts Meredith Whitney and Tom Brown had expressed similar sentiments earlier in the year.
Suffice it to say, the proof is in the pudding.
While it's still too early to gauge the market's reaction to the stress test results, many bank shares are trending lower in after-hours trading. Morgan Stanley is down by 1.5%, Goldman Sachs by .08%, JPMorgan by 0.85%, and Wells Fargo by .033%. Heading up, alternatively, are shares of Citigroup, BB&T, and The Bank of New York Mellon. And B of A and US Bancorp are both even since the close.

With significant challenges still ahead, it's critical to have a solid understanding of this megabank before adding it to your portfolio.

That is an knowing editorial by Kal Kassa, the head of industry pattern at hoseki and an Ethiopian Bitcoiner.
Diverse multinational institutions are failing to entire their supposed missions and targets. Institutions luxuriate in the United Worldwide locations and the diverse workplaces they work with put up narratives of “sustainable finance reforms,” but most celebrated events in Canada, Sri Lanka and the Netherlands portion characteristics that would per chance well also support the be taught of dynamic teams in diverse nation-states this day.
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, is arguably the diplomatic capital of Africa. With increasing support, funding and high-probability financing from diverse institutions over the past century, Ethiopia has trended in direction of being a feudalist monarchy and then a Marxist/Leninist Convey. Most lately, our history includes innovative democracy below a series of poly-ethnic federalist states.
As these dynamic populations get elevated get admission to to freedom instruments luxuriate in telecommunications and bitcoin, I suspect there’ll be “comely deflation,” as captured by Jeff Booth in “The Worth of The next day to come: Why Deflation is the Key to an Great Future.”
“A chook within the hand is worth two within the bush.”
We are seeing improvements on the Lightning Community and most lately, with the FediMint scaling solution. To catalyze our imagination extra, I employ lets survey case-be taught internal tribes and villages living off-grid. As this training emerges, we’ll have the choice to enter a brand novel section in our financial history where a village can inquire the audit of its village elders and receive a verifiable response on a trustless ledger. I accept as true with that can elevate billions of of us into this digital century.
Figuring out channels and how they open as much as crew security will yield a rising bounty. Social contracts and advanced questions of collective security will an increasing selection of be negotiated with out the interference of international institutions luxuriate in the United Worldwide locations and the diverse more three-letter institutions which is likely to be proving to be cancerous, vestigial organs. As an different, decentralized instruments and tech-savvy uncles would per chance well also support teams and identities fabricate consensus.
By means of unknown events outlined in “The Fourth Turning: An American Prophecy” and unknown events that part for recordsdata and coercion, I accept as true with suspended pockets of tag will develop into unlocked as more cost effective microprocessors yield a rising market portion. There are daring thinkers that accept as true with this would possibly occasionally flee up productivity across many industries internationally. I accept as true with more of this innovation will happen as source code that’s free of where it’s a long way currently hosted. I accept as true with most celebrated failures of diverse non-fungible token (NFT) “tribes” will flee up improvements and data tag in our on-line world. Mental property rights, as properly as to the replace agreements and unproductive tariff rates that govern international replace will additionally plow thru a world reckoning. Negotiations with the World Substitute Group are ongoing and Ethiopia has yet to resign its marketplace sovereignty. Sorrowful international locations luxuriate in Ethiopia are positioned to grab pleasure in these phugoid-luxuriate in volatility cycles.
Most attractive to Ethiopia and Ethiopians will be what which implies for institutions such because the United Worldwide locations. Past my restricted conclusions, I suspect there’ll be more forensic audits of diverse institutions that claim to portray a grunt or flag. I extremely suspect these institutions employ online advert and promotion instruments (each and every official and unofficial) to persuade centered populations. As detailed in “The Sovereign Particular particular person,” these forms of truths will be inconvenient and advanced to fathom for the statist or the central banker in all of us.
“Know properly the location of your flocks, and focus for your herds, for riches develop not last without end; and does a crown suffer to all generations?” — Proverbs 27: 23
In leisurely 2017, at an overpriced brunch in Addis Ababa, I turned into made responsive to something called “Bitcoin.” This wasn’t the first time I heard the note from a look, but this turned into the first time I heard it in most cases known as a tool for Ethiopians. This is able to presumably thoroughly be a name to motion to every principled member of the crew. In the increasing different of international locations where the Convey has develop into the enemy, or at easiest an untrusted third get collectively, Bitcoin would be the tool of enterprise emancipation. Residing in Addis Ababa as a privileged particular person of a diaspora offers me some views into these events. Most urgently, novel peace treaties are inevitable for the length of periods of collapse.
In the 14th century, hawala turned into being aged to facilitate replace on the Silk Avenue, a replace route that appealing noteworthy replace between international locations from Asia to the Mediterranean and North Africa — not to be stressed with the Silk Avenue web web verbalize.
As we pass right into a brand novel generation, I have a rising suspicion that replace routes will develop into unbound from mature laws, and freedom between markets and expansive populations will catalyze the expansion that the realm desperately wants.
Sooner than my family immigrated to the United States, my father, luxuriate in his father before him, aged launch-source instruments to present protection to his property in Ethiopia. Dubbed “Kalash” from its Russian translation, this tool turned into critical for diverse teams internal this past century.
My father turned into a classically professional engineer for the length of the 1970s and labored hunting for petroleum deposits among unforgiving land formations within the Ogaden Convey of Ethiopia that borders Somalia. He sporadically strikes a chord in my memory about energy recordsdata that turned into falsified within the title of an imagined collective for the length of that length. In 1994, my father and our family had been awarded a “vary visa” and relocated to the U.S. For the next decade or so, working as a technician on the manufacturing ground at Tyco World in Silicon Valley turned into noteworthy more lucrative than digging empty ditches for oil barons in East Africa.
Currently, the recordsdata and data wars in Ethiopia are most evident in dilapidated cities with diverse reinforcing cleavages and an inability to present protection to their properties and their lives. The Marxist/Leninist regime removed weapons from my oldsters’ dwelling as they came into vitality at some stage within the cities and villages of Ethiopia. At the present time, I suspect launch-source instruments of peace and the affected person, God-fearing training we observe on every day foundation will flee up our dumb liberation.
“For to him that’s joined to the total living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dumb lion.” — Ecclesiastes 9:4
Officially crowned in 1930, primarily the most uncommon appointment of the leisurely-Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie turned into that “He held the portfolio of Minister of Training in his have fingers unless 1966.” Historians this day are left along with his relentless pursuit of training, donating his palace to the nation’s first university and sending college students into seek in a foreign country purposes all all around the realm. His Imperial Majesty turned into if nothing else an educator of thought and dignity.
Lower than 10 years later, after easing the academic influences of Ethiopian college students, a flurry of Soviet-subsidized and student-led protests, seasoned with an unhealthy response of American-led intervention, spurred a glum age from which now we have yet to totally emerge.
From 1974 to 1991 Ethiopia turned into a communist grunt. At the unpleasant layer of our celebrated training, our successes (and novel disappointments) are captured easiest by Dr. Aklilu Habte as he lectured at the Library of Congress — the context of which is that he left Ethiopia almost right this moment after the Marxist-Leninist revolution. The verbalize more without delay discusses compromised quality at institutions of elevated training. Politically appointed educators, as our nation’s first Minister of Training many cases observed, is a really troubling and caring trend. At the present time, Ethiopia’s training has been arguably debased beyond recognition.
This separation of options from the monetary unpleasant continues to motive a disproportionate amount of anguish in Ethiopia. Most evident and most paralyzing would be the debasement of human lifestyles. I suspect this would per chance presumably have something to develop with the grunt-subsidized historical legacy of ethnic federalism. It would be beyond mercy that within the ’90s (comely a few years following Rwanda’s history) our institution-led leaders requested Ethiopians to identify themselves beyond title and the many recordsdata fields we’re aged to within the West. As an different, in Ethiopia, we must the least bit times constantly be reminded that the ethnic identification of every citizen turned into branded on grunt-issued identification playing cards. This statist culture of retain an eye on and labeling at the ethnic level equates to racism and catalyzes violent trends to unprotected nationality’s tribes in rural Ethiopia. It’s a long way my gaze that digital, bot-luxuriate in and undefined identities react in identical wave patterns and frequencies across networks and channels. Dishonesty at centralized institutions will proceed to misrepresent tag and data right into a cascading flame. Compare into the algorithmic decisions of sure applied sciences and the unexpected flare of identification-primarily primarily based massacres would per chance well per chance gentle be exhaustively and apolitically studied. In my restricted capability, I additionally suspect there is an upsetting relationship relating to diverse keywords drilled into charity-led recruits — most observable to the Ethiopian citizen are the 17 Sustainable Building Desires (SDGs) designed to be a “blueprint to enact a bigger and more sustainable future for all.” For context, these “SDGs” had been achieve up in 2015 by the United Worldwide locations Long-established Assembly and are supposed to be performed by 2030.
In my gaze, the United Worldwide locations has didn’t enact diverse milestones of growth as an group. Furthermore, the United Worldwide locations and its endless workplaces, projects and crosscutting purposes can no longer characteristic in any civilized trajectory attributable to an inability to totally yarn for explain staff and beneficiaries of their funding. Additionally, the placement and activities of its diverse digital and physical sources are sophisticated to right against attack vectors, each and every home and foreign.
Treatments would per chance well per chance gentle be considered given these UN-held sources are sitting in an arguably unproductive manner and extra draining our nation’s ancient financial growth. As we enact on the effectiveness of these institutions, my gaze is that the meek college students at Qala Bitcoin are comely and would per chance well per chance gentle inherit the realm, as they’re completely positioned to develop into future contributors and maintainers of Bitcoin.
“Only some years within the past, conferences to grab veil of African concerns had been held launch air Africa, and the destiny of its peoples had been determined by non-Africans. At the present time, … thanks to the conference of Accra and now of Addis Ababa, the peoples of Africa can, at prolonged last, deliberate on their have concerns and future.” – Haile Selassie I at the Summit for the Structure of the Group of African Unity in 1963.
Convey-primarily primarily based recordsdata campaigns and institution-led propaganda will proceed on this wicked, digital world. As the bounty widens, outsized rewards for productive activities will naturally conspire. Unintentional actions and political events will recordsdata us in direction of any true institutional collapse as obligatory. Private values will commence to grab on a lawful paradigm and treaties de jure will must be revisited at every level.
I will be blinded by patriotic responsibility or my background in audit products and companies, but I be aware that in 1963, Emperor Haile Selassie talented more than 200,000 sq. meters of land to the Group of African Unity (OAU). Over the next few decades, these sources had been transferred to the United Worldwide locations Financial Payment on Africa (UN–ECA). The OAU quietly dissolved to develop into the Africa Union (AU). At the present time, the AU painfully sits in a Chinese language-constructed headquarters that makes employ of Huawei-subsidized cameras.
I propose that any of these sources, deemed to be unproductive or misplaced by Addis Ababa’s land administrators, would per chance well per chance gentle be auctioned off to the ideal bidder. The amount raised will most positively make stronger Ethiopia’s climb out of debt. I additionally suspect that this pure and unexpected evolution will yield a surplus to extra funding in hydroelectric vitality facilities as fragment of Ethiopia’s persisted push to develop into energy unbiased. Carrying out Mano and the Ethiopian Bitcoin crew would employ to harness this energy into the Bitcoin community. As we survey persisted lawful collapse on one indecent and a financial collapse on one other, suspended human energy will veil itself and add tag to our rising world.
As these truths and events unfold, of us within the World South are faced with novel instruments. Draw close support custody in every sense and be fully unapologetic to damaged-down paradigms as a topic of international consensus. These conclusions are not novel, but would per chance well per chance want some added urgency given the mercurial increasing annual replace deficit internal Ethiopia and loads of international locations in identical stipulations.

Okay, she obviously does because she published "Son of Stitch'n Bitch", there are pictures of men knitting at Stitch'n Bitch groups in her books, there's that guy on the cover of "Stitch'n Bitch Nation", and she does mention the fact that men knit.
I just got "Stitch'n Bitch: A Knitter's Design Journal" from a GUY at work (he's actually in Sacramento) and I love it... it's great and has a lot of cool stuff in it. However, there are about 80 pages of "Design Pages" - "to sketch out sweater ideas using a variety of dress-up dolls. Choose the doll with the body type that's most similar to yours (or the person you are knitting for)."
Every page has a female doll, complete with bra and panties... just waiting to receive her sweater. I thought maybe she'd have a few pages with a male doll... what about the male dolls who don't have sweaters, huh? | <urn:uuid:d804f1ac-be13-4be9-b521-5d55bb39f95f> | CC-MAIN-2014-41 | http://www.menwhoknit.com/community/node/3949 | 2014-09-17T17:51:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-41/segments/1410657124236.90/warc/CC-MAIN-20140914011204-00184-ip-10-196-40-205.us-west-1.compute.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.976 | 212 |
Improve English Vocabulary
There are more than 250,000 words in the Oxford English dictionary. This numberdoes not include slang or technical words. However, a good English speaker would normally use only 15,000 to 20,000 of these words. If you think your vocabulary is weak, a little effort everyday over a six to nine month period can go a long way in improving it.
Here are EnglishLeap’s top ten vocabulary improvement tips –
1. Make reading the newspaper a daily ritual. You may be comfortable reading a particular section but make an effort to read different articles on every page. The editorial page is highly recommended not only for vocabulary but also for structuring and presenting thought.
2. Make it a habit to read a new book every week. It is not surprising that those who read a lot develop a good vocabulary. You can consider becoming a member of the local library. Make a list of wordsthat are new to you and look up their meanings in the dictionary.
3. Watching English movies and television shows is important for improving English and learning new English words. The best part about watching English videos is that you can learn the correct pronunciation as well.
4. Use vocabulary cards. Vocabulary cards are used by students who are trying to learn many words in a short period of time. You can make your own cards by writing the word onone side and the meaning on the other side of a square piece of paper. It is a convenient tool to learn new words in your free time
5. Use the internet. The internet is an unlimited resource for reading material. Pick up a topic of your choice and search for articles about it. You will come across plenty of material to read, which you might find interesting, and importantly, will also introduce you to new words. Be sure to look them up in a dictionary.
6. Don’t forget the new words. The best way to ensure that you never forget the new words you learn is to start using them in your day to day conversation. Do not try to force them into a conversation but do use them if you think they are appropriate.
7. Learn pronunciation. Most dictionaries provide us with pronunciations of words using phonetic symbols. It is important to learn the sounds that correspond to these phonetic symbols, in order to become comfortable pronouncing new words.
8. Learning in groups is always more fun. If you have friends who also want to improve their vocabulary, then you can form a group and share new words with each other. You can meet at regular intervals and measure your progress.
9. Learn the root words. Root words are words from which words grow with the addition of prefixes and suffixes. For example: The word vocabulary is derived from the Latin root word‘voc’, which means 'word' or 'name'. Other words like advocacy, vocal and vociferous are also derived from the same root word. Hence, if you can recognize some root words, you will get a fair idea of many derived words. Check out our list of common root words.
10. Keep revising. While it is important to read and learn new words, it is equally important to revise what you have learnt. Fix a particular day of the week to revise all the words you have learnt in that week and add them to your daily vocabulary.

Photo taken in:Zamost'ye townYear when photo was taken:1920Country name at time of photo:PolandCountry name today:Poland
My maternal grandfather Iona Wolfenfeld. This photo was taken in Zamost'ye town in Poland, around 1920, Strizhevskiy studio. My grandfather is rather old, looking 65-70 years old, having gray hair and a big gray beard, wearing a kippah and a long jacket, reading a big book - perhaps this was a Torah book, having his glasses on it.
My mother's family lived in Poland since ancient times. In the end of the 19th century Poland was under the Russian rule. I don't know the exact date and place of my grandfather Iona Wolfenfeld. I don't know the first or maiden name of my maternal grandmother. My mother's family lived in Zamost'ye town of Radom district.
My grandparents didn't have many children by the standards of their time: older son Yakov, son Peretz, my mother's older sister Gintsia and my mother Malka, born in 1896. My mother was much younger than her older brothers and sisters, and their children were almost the same age as my mother. The children got Jewish education: the boys finished cheder, and the girls studied with a melamed at home. Grandfather Iona knew the torah and Talmud and taught his children Hebrew, Jewish prayers, history and traditions. They followed kashrut and celebrated Sabbath and Jewish holidays in the family. My grandfather usually wore a long jacket and a kippah, and my grandmother also wore traditional Jewish clothes and a wig. Grandfather Iona was a contractor in the Russian troops in Poland.
In 1914 WWI began and in 1915 the Russian army began to retreat and there were refugees from Russia moving to the south and to Ukraine. My grandfather's family temporarily settled down in Poltava where my grandfather bought a two-storied houses with eight rooms.
In 1919 all of my mother's relatives moved to Poland that separated from Russia after WWI. My mother never saw her parents, sister Gintsia or brother Yakov again. She corresponded with them for a long time, but terminated this correspondence in 1937 since it was not safe to continue it. The fate of my mother's family was tragic. According to the archives grandfather Iona and grandmother were kept in the Warsaw ghetto where they perished. | <urn:uuid:d40902c2-cee7-433f-b611-612c3f15edf6> | CC-MAIN-2021-21 | https://www.centropa.org/cs/node/103688 | 2021-05-14T23:29:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-21/segments/1620243991829.45/warc/CC-MAIN-20210514214157-20210515004157-00268.warc.gz | en | 0.985056 | 505 |

Today, I’m going to show you how to make mango juice from mango pulp. Mango is one of the most popular fruits in the world, and for good reason. They’re absolutely delectable, and not just as a standalone fruit. Mangos are used to create a number of different dishes like mango milk shakes and mango puddings. Mangos aren’t hard to make either. With just a few ingredients you can quickly whip up a batch of tasty homemade mango juice!
Mango Juice Recipe
In the summertime, mango juice acts as a body and mind coolant. We do consume the market-available preserved mango juices, but they contain fewer mangoes overall as well as coloring and preservatives. So let’s produce mango juice at home without any coloring or preservatives.
Ingredients for Mango Juice
- Ripe Mangoes – 5-6 (1.5 kgs.)
- Lemon – 7 (250 gms.)
- Sugar – 5 cup (1 kg.)
Method – How to make Mango Juice
Remove the sugar and place it in a basin with 500 g (2 1/2 cups) of water. To boil the water, leave the bowl on the stove. 5–6 minutes of boiling time will yield one string of sweet syrup. Now extinguish the flame and let the syrup to cool.
Mango pulp should be removed from washed, peeled mangoes and placed in a separate bowl. Put the pulp in the mixer, and use it to create a thick paste.
Lemon juice is extracted and placed in a small bowl.
Once the syrup has cooled, add the mango pulp and lemon juice. They should be thoroughly mixed before being sieved. Place a bottle of this juice in the refrigerator after filling it. This juice can be consumed for at least a month. Take 1 part of the concentrated mango juice and add 5 times as much water anytime you want to drink it. Juice and water should be thoroughly combined before adding ice cubes to chill it.
It’s time for your freshly produced mango juice. Give these to your children whenever they return from school or anytime they feel the need for a refreshing beverage in the sweltering summer heat.
How to make the Mango Juice instantly.
Instant mango juice is available to you. Remove the pulp from 250 g of mangoes, add it to the mixer, along with 4 table spoons of sugar, 3 glasses of water, and the lemon juice. Then, turn the mixer on. After sifting the mixture, pour the juice into a glass and top it off with ice cubes to chill it.
Mango Passion Fruit Juice
Looking for a cool mix to make your day more bearable? This mango passion fruit juice is the ideal balance of sour, sweet, and cool.
Juice of Mango, Passion Fruit
I had the advantage of being able to go outdoors and pick our own fruits to create juices when I was younger.
Almost every type of tropical fruit was available to us. A few additional fruits include cherries, pommerac, oranges, grapefruits, pommecythere, passion fruit, pomelos/shaddock, and a variety of mangos, including Julie, Ice Cream, and Starchy.
Juice mixtures ranged from simple single fruit drinks to those created with whatever was currently in season.
Mango and passion fruit are a delicious pairing. Even Starbucks offers a mango passion fruit smoothie, after all.
This is a cool beverage with natural flavors. Tropical flavor and a fresh blend will tempt your taste senses.
a blend of acidic from the passion fruit and sweet from the juicy mango.
Drinks with great fruit combinations are so reviving.
What is passion fruit?
Other names for this fruit include grenadille, maracujá, maracuya, or lilikoi; it is also occasionally spelled passionfruit.
Passion fruit grows on a vine and can be either yellow or purple in hue. They were mostly yellow while I was growing up.
It tastes really sour. Some may even say tart. But as it ripens, the sweetness increases.
What is consumed is the fruit’s interior. The interior is pulpy and seed-filled.
I am aware that the seeds can cause some people some worry, but there is nothing stopping you from eating them. Ask my little one.
Antioxidants abound in passion fruit, which is also known to contain large amounts of beta-carotene.
Nutritional benefits of mango
Mangoes, the best fruit ever, will then be added.
There are thousands of different kinds of them. And mangoes have a plethora of advantages.
Mangoes have a variety of advantages, including:
- help with digestion
- promote a healthy gut and eye health
- clears the skin
- lowers cholesterol
- aids with clearing the skin from blemishes
How to select the best mangoes?
In order to get the mango for this recipe at its sweetest, it must be ripe. similar to the ingredients we’d use to make mango ice cream.
Squeezing a ripe mango gently will reveal whether it is tender. not harsh and rigid.
When you touch the skin, it must gently give, similar to how ripe peaches do.
For this drink, I try to stay away from stringy mangoes. However, you can make advantage of them. Simply strain them to remove the string and obtain the juice
Ingredients for making passion fruit mango juice
Fresh fruit is required as one of the best components for this drink.
- Fresh mango pulp.
- Passion fruit pulp.
- Angostura bitters.
Equipment and tools
For this recipe it would be good to have a:
- some sort of sieve. You can use cheesecloth or a standard sieve, which is what I do.
- a suitable non-reactive basin for collecting the strained juices. Plastic containers sometimes retain the fragrance of the previous item you stored in them, which is why I dislike using them.
- a competent blender of some kind. The mixer does not have to be a well-known brand. In reality, blending the mango pulp in my ninja blender went really well.

Mangoes and passion fruits should be washed. Even though we won’t be using the skin or shells, we still don’t want any trash or filth in the area.
Scoop out the pulp and seeds of the fresh passion fruits by halves them. We’re aiming for half a cup.
With a spoon, mix the pulp into a fine-mesh sieve to get the liquid through. Keep a few seeds for garnish.
Mango meat should be separated from the skin and seeds. In order to prevent your blender from sticking, mix the pulp with just enough water. It shouldn’t be overly runny.
Blend the mango pulp and passion fruit juice together.
Juice mixture should also contain sugar and water. As this might vary depending on how sweet your fruits are, adjust to taste.
After adding the bitters, cool.
The passion fruit seeds can be used as a garnish at the base of the glass and are best served chilled.
Substitutes | Additions
- Even while I like to use fresh fruit when making these drinks, some companies sell the pulp already prepared for consumption if you don’t have access to fresh fruit.
- Various pulp products are available, including frozen mango pulp and passion fruit pulp. They can be purchased at Walmart and several stores located in sizable Caribbean neighborhoods.
- Want a tasty frozen beverage? Use the frozen concentrate to try this concoction. ideal for relaxing poolside. A mango passion fruit rum drink will take you on a tropical vacation when a little rum is added.
Tips for making mango passion fruit juice
- Simply pressing the pulp with a spoon to get the juice from the passion fruit is the best method.
- Make sure your mango is not green and acidic to taste because passion fruit may be quite tart.
- Use granulated sugar to prevent the liquids’ colors from being altered.
Mango Juice – Nothing says summer like gulping down a big old glass of fresh, tropical tasting juice on a hot afternoon. This is one of my favorite drink recipes during mango season because it’s quick and easy and, more importantly, super delicious. This one is for you, all my fellow mango lovers! 🥭
Every single person in my family, literally, adores mango juice. Did I mention that it’s easy to make and only needs a few ingredients? You read it right; it’s simple to create and a hit with everyone. Where are my harried mothers? You all are aware of the success of this recipe.
Mango juice also has a wonderfully refreshing quality. especially if you love mangoes as much as I do. It is sweet and tropical, a terrific pick-me-up when the summer heat is getting to you.
What is Mango Juice?
Mango juice is exactly what it sounds like—mango juice. If you’ve ever drank mango nectar from a can, you’ll understand how thick the liquid from mangos can be. In order to create mango juice with an actual “juice” consistency, water is added.
- Mangos – This fruit is sweet and meaty, and it tastes delicious both as a snack and as a beverage.
- Sugar – This item is optional, but you can use it if you want to increase the sweetness.
- Mint Leaves – This herb provides a lovely garnish and is the key ingredient in my preferred sugar syrup.
How to Make Mango Juice
The Sugar Syrup
- Start the Simple Syrup – In a small saucepan, mix the mint leaves, water, and sugar. While stirring, bring to a boil until the sugar dissolves. For one minute, simmer. After taking the syrup off the heat, allow it to steep for about 30 minutes. (Photos 1-2)
The Mango Juice
- Peel and Slice Mango – Along the mango seed, cut the sides. Without cutting through the mango peel, make grid-like cuts in the mango flesh. With a big spoon, separate the flesh from the skin and remove the cubes. See my tutorial on for more advice on how to complete this stage. how to cut a mango. (Photos 3-5)
- Puree – In a blender or food processor, add the mango flesh and water, and pulse until smooth. (Photos 6-8)
- Finishing Touches – In a container, pour the mango juice. After that, taste and add the sugar syrup. You can choose how much sugar syrup to use in this step at your discretion. To combine, stir.
- Serve Add ice cubes and mint leaves as a garnish. Take a deep breath and relish!
- By replacing the water in your mango juice with coconut water, orange juice, pineapple juice, or any other favorite beverage, you can make it even more tropical.
- Mango nectar can be made instead of mango juice by omitting the water and only adding sugar syrup. The final product will be a mango beverage that is both thicker and sweeter.
- Add milk to a mango smoothie instead of water. Delicious and creamy!
Tips and Tricks
- The consistency of this mango juice recipe is entirely up to you. If you like a juice that is thinner, add extra water.
- If you decide to add sugar syrup, do it gradually and taste the juice along the way until you get the appropriate amount of sweetness. If the mixture isn’t sweet enough, you can always add more sugar syrup, but if you add too much, it will be difficult to remove.
You can prepare mango juice a few days in advance if you’d like because it keeps fresh in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days. Mango juice is even freezer-friendly. Making it ahead of time is possible because it keeps well for three months in the freezer.
Serving and Storage Instructions
Serve chilled mango juice! Once the glass has been filled with ice, swirl it briefly before serving.
Mango juice should be kept in the refrigerator in a pitcher or container with a lid. Mango juice can be frozen in any airtight container. Personally, I enjoy using ziplock bags.
Simply take the frozen mango juice out of the freezer the night before you intend to consume it. You can start serving it right away when it has thawed.
Can I put mangos in a juicer?
You can, however if you want to extract the juice from mangos, a blender or food processor works best. Compared to a juicer, a blender’s shredding and grinding will extract significantly more juice from the fruit.
Are mangos high in sugar?
Yes, mangos have a lot of sugar compared to other fruits. If you are watching your sugar intake, you can probably still enjoy this juice, but definitely skip the sugar syrup.
What is mango juice good for?
On a warm day, I’m feeling revived! Mangoes do, however, provide a number of health advantages. They are rich in minerals including potassium, calcium, phosphorus, and iron as well as a ton of vitamins.
What Goes With Mango Juice
So many recipes pair wonderfully with mango juice. Personally, I enjoy serving it with Caribbean fare like Jamaican jerk chicken or rice and peas.
It also goes well with coconut shrimp or anything spicy. Try it with a plate of kelewele (spicy fried plantains) or Poulet DG, and you’ll see what I mean. 👌 | <urn:uuid:14970354-e323-4fa2-a87b-5fdbb3b835d6> | CC-MAIN-2023-06 | https://thesuperhealthyfood.com/how-to-make-mango-juice-from-mango-pulp/ | 2023-01-31T23:47:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-06/segments/1674764499891.42/warc/CC-MAIN-20230131222253-20230201012253-00805.warc.gz | en | 0.925286 | 2,907 |

The SAN JOSE and the EDMONTON will both be gunning for a victory on 4/14/2017 at 10:35 PM when they meet in a game matchup.
SAN JOSE vs EDMONTON
When: 10:30 PM ET, Friday, April 14, 2017
Where: Rogers Place, Edmonton, Alberta
|77||SAN JOSE||0 (-110)||5 -105
TV: 10:30 p.m. ET, NBC Sports Network, TVAS, NBC Sports California (San Jose), Sportsnet, (Edmonton)
PREDICTION: Oilers 3, Sharks 1
Oddsmakers currently have the SAN JOSE listed as 125-moneyline favorites versus the EDMONTON, while the game’s total is sitting at 5.
EDMONTON, Alberta — As Game 1 of the Western Conference first-round series between San Jose and Edmonton progressed, something became clearly obvious; that the Sharks postseason experience was a key factor against an Oilers’ team that featured a slew of players making their playoff debuts.
Despite the crowd noise in Edmonton and falling behind by two goals, the Sharks took over the game, won 3-2 in overtime and ended up outshooting the home side 44-19. There were long periods where the orange-clad crowd appeared frustrated by the Oilers’ lack of both puck possession and time spent in the offensive zone.
The Sharks hemmed the Oilers into their zone for long periods of Game 1, and Edmonton struggled to make the transition passes that would allow the defensemen to find some of the team’s fleet-footed forwards.
San Jose will look to take a 2-0 lead Friday at Rogers Place.
“I know we’ve got to be better with the puck,” Oilers star center Connor McDavid said after the team’s practice on Thursday. “Both blue lines, I thought coming out we were a little bit sloppy at our blue line, and I thought that’s something we’ve been pretty good at all year.”
McDavid, who had 100 points on the season, was limited to one assist in his playoff debut.
“We weren’t going to go 16 and 0,” said Oilers center Mark Letestu, who, with 18 career playoff games under his belt, is one of the team’s veterans in that regard. “We didn’t expect to sweep these guys, either. The idea was to come in today (to practice), flush it, and be ready for another game.”
Anyone who has been around Oilers coach Todd McLellan for any period of time has heard the “flush it,” adage. He’s been using it all season long — win or lose, he doesn’t want his players to dwell on the past. He wants his team to always be focused on what’s next.
“There’s no panic in this room,” said Letestu. “We know we’re a lot better than we showed. We had a good first period, but, after that, it was a pretty poor game on our part.”
The status of Sharks veteran center Joe Thornton is up in the air. He’s in Edmonton, he’s been at practices, but he didn’t dress for Game 1. A knee issue kept him out of the final week of the regular season. But, by guaranteeing at least a split of the first two games in Edmonton, Sharks coach Peter DeBoer doesn’t have to rush Thornton.
“We hope to be in this for a long time and, if I get a couple of days here and there, it would help me out in the long term,” Thornton said Wednesday.
But the Sharks did get a boost in Game 1 with the return of Logan Couture, who had been out since March 25 after taking a puck to the mouth. The injury was so serious he required extensive dental surgery.
“Let’s be honest, this guy’s a world-class player,” said DeBoer. “Even at 75 percent, he’s still better than most guys in your lineup. He’s a playoff-type player, and I don’t think it was an accident that he led the league in playoff scoring last year, and he wasn’t going to be kept out of the game last night.”
Couture had 30 points in 24 playoff games last season as the Sharks went all the way to the Cup final, only to lose to the Pittsburgh Penguins in six games. Couture may be playing at only 75 percent, but as the series goes on he will get better and stronger.
While the Sharks did a great job limiting McDavid in Game 1, they understand it’s simply not enough to key on one star player.
“The Edmonton Oilers are much more than Connor McDavid,” said DeBoer. “He’s a great player and he’s a guy you have to pay attention to, but we’ve learned over the season they’re much more than that and much deeper than that. Our game plan wasn’t just about Connor McDavid, it was about our team game all over the ice.”
Oilers defenseman Adam Larsson was absent from the team’s practice on Thursday, but McLellan said it’s a “maintenance day” for the team’s top-pairing rearguard. He said Larsson will play Friday.

U.S. Fiscal Year 2019 Funding Bill Signed Into Law Includes Spending for Health and Human Services
On Sept. 28, 2018, President Trump signed into law a fiscal year (FY) 2019 funding package, which includes spending for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The bill was passed earlier in the week by the U.S. House of Representatives. Of particular interest to family scholars, the HHS bill contains next year’s final appropriation for the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Department of Education (ED), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), and Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), among other federal departments and agencies. This marks the first time in more than 20 years that this bill, which tends to be one of the most divisive among Republicans and Democrats, was signed into law on time.
COSSA (The Consortium of Social Science Associations), of which NCFR is a member, has been covering the FY 2019 spending bills' progress, and will continue to do so. | <urn:uuid:487b4f64-f7c2-41cc-a7e3-65573d25142e> | CC-MAIN-2021-31 | https://www.ncfr.org/news/us-fiscal-year-2019-funding-bill-signed-law-includes-spending-health-and-human-services | 2021-07-29T06:03:31Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-31/segments/1627046153816.3/warc/CC-MAIN-20210729043158-20210729073158-00054.warc.gz | en | 0.954056 | 223 |
SocioCentral.com – The Best Social Media Sites
Socio Central is where you should go if you are looking for new social media communities to become an active part of. This site turns that search process into a really straightforward one, as its members not only share all the communities they know personally but also rate them. They rate them, they review them, they tag them… the idea is to give people who have never heard of such communities before a ready understanding of what to expect if they visit them.
Note that not any old site can be included here. Only sites with voting features and social technologies are considered for inclusion. A standard blog would never make the cut.
Naturally, sites such as GoWalla and Foursquare have already been added to this database (and extensively commented, too). Yet, I think the true value of Socio Central will become apparent once sites that are always neglected begin picking up mentions here.
SocioCentral.com In Their Own Words
SocioCentral provides its members with an educational platform to discover social media networks and gain a deeper understanding of this growing field. Members will discover networks for themselves, but also rate, review, tag and share other online communities, helping to educate their friends along the way. The database is the heart of our platform, where members can learn about existing social media communities. SocioCentral presents a dynamic variety of online communities to help you in many ways.

Since there are no body acne cures many people are looking for a remedy for body acne. Experiencing body acne breakouts can be horrendous. For some people, it has severe effects on self esteem and can even lead to social withdrawal, depression and anxiety. The lesser effects may involve limiting outdoor activities or constantly covering up the breakouts so that nobody sees it. Body acne can also result in permanent scarring.
Most people who have body acne do cover it up which makes others think that it is rare. I assure you, it is not. Many people experience body acne breakouts. It is more common in teenage boys and men, but teenage girls and women sometimes experience it as well.
You will be amazed to know that many students, athletes and even soldiers experience body acne. This type of acne is called acne mechanica. Body acne is caused from pores and hair follicles getting clogged with oil and dead skin cells and being invaded by bacteria. The fact that this range of people put pressure on their skin and traps heat against their body for an extended time through the use of tight clothing, sports equipment or packing supplies such as backpacks, makes them more vulnerable to body acne.
These acne irritating actions cannot be avoided and there is no body acne cure which makes constant acne body treatment necessary to keep the acne under control and to prevent breakouts.
In the medical field of dermatology, there are many types of treatment for acne. Minor breakouts sometimes respond well to topical products that contain salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. More severe forms are treated with antibiotics, oral medication and topical solutions, or even surgery and injections.
Many people are opposed to using such treatments long term to control acne. I am one of them! Since I’m a registered nurse, some people find that odd, but through my training and experience I have witnessed that long term exposure to oral treatments can be bad for you and the body will eventually form a resistance to the medications.
A lot of topical treatments for acne cause sun sensitivity, dry skin and redness of the skin. I passed up the standard treatments for acne a long time ago and started using natural home remedies instead.
I admit, I’m a skin care junkie, so my original home remedy contained many steps and most people fail to stick to such a regime. I knew that it wouldn’t work for my teenage daughter as well as it worked for me because of her natural resistance to consistency. So, I went to work to develop a product for her that was simple to use, yet effective.
The result was deMistify. It is made from organic and all natural ingredients. It can be used as a one-step acne body spray to treat body acne and to prevent further breakouts. The people who have used it to treat body acne have told me that it is an amazing product, much better than other acne body home remedy solutions that they have tried.

MONKEYS with Parkinson’s disease-like symptoms have had their suffering eased by an injection of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) into their brain.
Jun Takahashi of Kyoto University in Japan and colleagues injected these cells into monkeys whose brains had been damaged by a chemical that destroys dopamine-producing neurons and so causes Parkinson’s symptoms.
Two monkeys received hESCs that had been matured into an early form of neural cell. Six months later, the monkeys had recovered 20 to 45 per cent of the movement they had lost before treatment. Post-mortems a year after treatment showed that the cells had developed into fully functioning dopamine-secreting neurons. Another monkey that received less-mature neural cells also showed improvements (Stem Cells, DOI: 10.1002/stem.1060).
“Monkeys starting with tremors and rigidity [began] to move smoothly, and animals originally confined to sitting down were able to walk around,” says Takahashi.
The team says it will probably be four to six years before clinical trials in humans begin.

Tune in to this “Kitchen Table Conversation” style of Conscious Inquiry. No frills but great content!! Don’t Miss out!
“All I want to do is bring out the greatness in great people – and that’s what I want to do for you.” It was that phrase that Doc Childre, the founder of HeartMath told Howard Martin that has led to a 40 year journey of learning and leading others in an extraordinary understanding of the intelligence of the heart.
Together, Doc Childre and Howard Martin embarked on uncharted territory, delving deep into the quest to comprehend the vast spectrum of human and spiritual life and even consciousness itself. This brave exploration eventually led to the founding of HeartMath, a cutting edge research and development organization providing unique tools to boost performance, productivity, health and well being.
In this interview with the executive vice president of HeartMath, Howard Martin shares his very personal story about how his meeting Doc Childre, literally took his life in an unexpected direction. This is the first time he’s ever shared this story publically.
We also discuss life after 2012 and the acceleration of change, the practical application of intuition, and of course the incredible work that HeartMath has done to bring about an evolutionary change in understanding the expanded role that the heart plays in our lives.
This interview was conducted on site in Los Angeles at the Conscious Life Expo in February of 2013.

Back pain medications and treatments can cut down or completely relieve you of your discomfort. The most commonly complained about body part for pain, whether in the upper, middle, or lower section.
The most effective way to relieve back pain is to avoid causing injury. Preventative measures can decrease your risk of hurting yourself or aggravating a pre-existing condition. Check out causes for back pain, ways to lessen or get completely rid of pain, and tips to avoid pain.
Reasons for Back Pain
Back pain can come from injury, illness, and the natural aging process. It can develop and worsen over time or show up suddenly. Common conditions that cause back pain include the following:
- A sudden awkward movement or lifting something too heavy can cause back muscle and spinal ligament strain. Constant back strain can also cause muscle spasms.
- Spinal disks have soft material inside that cushion the vertebrae. The disk can bulge or rupture and press onto a nerve, causing pain. An accident or injury could cause a bulge or rupture. Disk disease is also a possible cause.
- Arthritis and osteoarthritis in the spine, or spinal stenosis, cause space around the spinal cord to narrow.
- Osteoporosis occurs when painful fractures develop due to porous and brittle bones.
- Other health and lifestyle factors increase your risk of getting back pain. The following puts you at risk for developing pain in your back and other areas:
- Older age increases your likelihood of developing back pain, commonly around 30 to 40 years of age.
- Not exercising leaves your muscles susceptible to weakening, and unused muscles in your abdomen and back can cause pain.
- Excess body weight adds stress to your back.
- Improper lifting can cause back strain.
- Smoking decreases blood flow to the spine, increases the risk of osteoporosis, and causes coughing, leading to herniated disks.
- Diseases like arthritis and cancer can lead to pain.
- Psychological conditions like depression and anxiety can make you more susceptible to back pain.
While you cannot stop aging, you can live a healthier lifestyle to avoid causing back pain. The best back pain management is prevention. But if you are already suffering, several back pain relief methods can lessen the pain or gt rid of it completely.
Back Pain Relief Treatments
Lower, middle, and upper back pain relief methods can be passive, such as through meditation and relaxation, active, like doing back exercises, and medical with pain medications. You and your doctor should consider the cause of your back pain when reviewing treatments.

While you might not want to hear “just wait and see” when you are in pain, but some lumbago relief is simply a waiting game. If you experience pain after an injury, you will need to wait for your injury to heal.
For instance, you may need severe upper back pain relief after a sports injury, like pulling a shoulder muscle. It still takes time to heal from strains and other muscle injuries, no matter what therapy you use.
However, some home remedies can help ease your pain while waiting for your back to heal. Heat and cold therapy expands and constricts blood vessels, both of which reduce discomfort. No matter which temperature treatment you are using or alternating between both, restrict heating and cooling packs to no longer than 15 minutes on your body.
If you are looking for middle back spasm relief, a massage could relax your muscles. Massages ease pain and can loosen and stretch muscles. The practice of massage encourages your body to heal itself since it increases blood flow.
During your healing time, you may want to look into your lowering your stress levels. Stress releases chemicals like cortisol, which can cause your muscles to tense and your body to be hyperalert. A stressful lifestyle can make back pain worse.
Sleeping can be difficult when you are in pain. Likewise, poor sleeping positions can worsen back pain. Consider if a new mattress or sleeping arrangement could help reduce your pain, like sticking a pillow between your knees as a side sleeper.
Stand Up, Stretch, Keep Moving, and Exercise
You may think the best upper back relief is just to relax, but inactivity can aggravate pain and weaken muscles. Stretching and movement keep muscles active without causing too much strain on injuries.
Some back pain management professionals would recommend exercising as a way to combat your pain. Stretching and exercises can relieve you of current discomfort and prevent future injury from effortless neck rotations to reverse dumbbell flies.
Yoga, for instance, can help with upper back spine pain relief by helping you align your neck, shoulders, and spine. The child’s pose is good for lower, middle, and upper back relief, as it stretches and elongates your spine.
Each sciatic nerve affects a side of your body, and nerve pain can feel crippling. A slipped disk or a bone spur can cause pain in your sciatic nerve. This pain can feel like burning, numbness, weakness, and more.
Working with a physical therapist could help strengthen muscles that support your back and improve your posture. Many sciatic nerve treatments involve exercise. A therapist will create a personalized plan to do with them and at home.
Seeking Professional Help
You may need back pain medication for serious pain. Over-the-counter medications like NSAIDs (ibuprofen and naproxen) are pain relievers and anti-inflammatories.
For lower and upper back pain management, you may want to speak to your doctor about prescription medication. Muscle relaxers, for example, can treat and relieve muscle spasms and tight muscles.
Your doctor may suggest an epidural injection if you have tried other back pain relief methods for more than six months. An epidural injection is a steroid shot into your spine.
Acupuncture is an ancient Chines medicine practice that involves sticking thin needles into strategic points on the body to relieve pain or cause another outcome. It can take six to eight weeks to feel the effects of acupuncture, but it does not work for everyone. | <urn:uuid:4e40e0b1-b550-4c90-95ab-da5369db1eb0> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://healthtips-online.com/getting-rid-of-back-pain/ | 2022-10-02T03:18:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337244.17/warc/CC-MAIN-20221002021540-20221002051540-00672.warc.gz | en | 0.915635 | 1,252 |
#PodGoals is an in-depth examination of outstanding podcasts from the world of geek and pop-culture entertainment. I listen so you don’t have to . . . then I tell you how amazing they are and that you should listen anyway.
Grown Ups 2 (2013), Adam Sandler’s teetering monument to mediocrity and fart jokes, has been called many things by critics. “Lazy” and “pointless” are what they say when they’re trying to be magnanimous. “Desperate,” “slothful,” “indulgent,” “sexist,” and “abrasive” come into play when the gloves are off. My favorite comment on the movie comes from Matt Patches of Time Out: “In the first five minutes, a deer walks into the star’s bedroom and urinates on his face. It’s all downhill from there.”
It’s safe to say that everyone agrees on Grown Ups 2 being a world-class cinematic turd, ranking just below Cthulhu in terms of psychological balefulness. So why would two men, who are in presumed possession of their full faculties, agree to watch the film 52 times over the course of a year and record their reactions after every viewing—reactions that amount mainly to sub-human mental deterioration and abject despair?
Tim Batt and Guy Montgomery, both 20-something Kiwi comedians, first met in 2013 while working on U Late, an after-hours comedy show on the now-defunct New Zealand public-access channel TVNZ. One of their regular bits consisted of Montgomery interviewing Batt as he improvised reviews of the best and worst toilets he’d used that week. That example encapsulates their style, though the pair doesn’t focus chiefly on the scatological. Their free-flowing bits are an elevation of the mundane and evince an alchemical desire to manifest comedy from base elements . . . and, OK, maybe make a few poop jokes along the way.
The two became fast friends and developed a concept for a podcast entitled The Worst Idea of All Time. The pitch: pick a bad film, watch it once a week, every week (no exceptions), for a year and record their reactions immediately afterward, capturing the fresh, lemon-faced indignity of having to stomach cinematic garbage. Choosing the film was their initial challenge; they first floated Con Air but decided it was too fun in its trashiness. The Room, though awful, was nixed for being too naively charming in its ineptitude. The pair eventually landed on Grown Ups, the 2010 Adam Sandler “comedy” starring the comedian and his friends, but decided instead to go with its sequel as an extra twist of the knife. “What could be worse,” they posited, “than a sequel to a film that should have never existed in the first place?” (Neither had seen Grown Ups before they began watching Grown Ups 2.) And off they went.
The resulting 52 episodes and subsequent 30-plus hours of the podcast document a descent into madness and human misery to rival the tragedies of any nation or age. All right, “madness” might be overstating it, but it could at least be described as “severe mental itchiness.” The pair start their viewings with high spirits, but as early as Week 7 (with more than 75 percent of the way left to go) they have to institute a “no phones” rule, as they’ve both been seeking solace in their electronic devices and neglecting the film.
Tim is especially fastidious about this in early shows; he’s determined that they will watch every minute consecutively and record immediately after viewing, preserving the full experience. (He initially had hopes that they would reach the Guinness Book of World Records for their feat, but later complications and the absence of a Guinness representative to document their achievement would thwart that dream.) Guy, though game, is somewhat more lax—Tim more than once chides him on air for having fallen asleep during the film’s run time. But who could blame him for trying to escape into sleep or for succumbing to the inanity of their task? You’re watching the same film, over and over, week in, week out, its dialogue, actions and rhythms becoming as familiar as your own reflection. And the film is Grown Ups 2, which the New York Times described as “raunch-lite devoid of emotional resonance.”
By Week 10, in the guise of play-testing the rules for their Grown Ups 2 drinking game, they let alcohol into the equation, and that’s where the standards really begin to crumble. By Week 29, hash gets involved, and the pair drift further into loopy, plaintive ruminations on what exactly the hell it is they’ve gotten themselves into. It’s easy to sympathize with their need for chemical distractions; back in the late teens of episode numbers, while straining to milk comical observations from such an awful film, they struck upon the sobering revelation that there was so much farther to go. The end is a mathematical reality but is nowhere in sight. Tim points out that even after they surmount Week 26 (the halfway point), their destination will seem further away than ever and that even when they reach their goal, he won’t be sure of what they’ve accomplished exactly. They’re trapped in a (more) existential production of Waiting for Godot. Their goal is an apple, continuously blown out of the grasp of their hungry hands by cruel winds. And the apple is rotten.
Full confession: I haven’t seen the film. I considered watching it for the podcast, much in the way Ewan McGregor “considered” shooting heroin to prepare for his role in Trainspotting (ill advised). But Time and Guy, smartly divining that their listeners might attempt the same, are careful to repeat a warning every week on air: “Do not watch this film.” I’ve complied with their wishes, and the result for me is a surreal experience, like watching someone die from poison gas through the window of an airtight room. They seem really upset about something, they’re clutching at their throat, but the source of their distress remains unclear. Without having seen the unfunny bits they describe, the flat characters and set-ups, the kindergarten-level humor, I developed the impression that the entire thing was some huge, immaculately crafted bit of experimental theater—there is no movie. These young men are attempting something of Borgesian ambition, assembling a fart-filled Uqbar out of dust and shadows that will mystify, repel, and elate observers for years to come. But sadly, IMDB and Matt Patches assure me that Grown Ups 2 is indeed real. Adam Sandler is simply an Omega-level hack, and these two guys are just thrashing in the dirt like dying snakes. Hilarious dying snakes, though.
While enacting their shadow play of existential human schadenfreude, Tim and Guy use their Olympic-level improvisational talents to execute a master class of finding humor in their circumstances. Accompanying the drinking game are segments like:
- “Paddy Schwartz Party Time!”: the boys single out a favored screen moment of glorified extra Patrick Schwarzenegger (son of the Governator and Maria Shriver), all while angling weekly for a sponsorship deal with Blaze Pizza (in which they’re convinced Patrick has an ownership share) and speculating on his relationship status with Miley Cyrus (they have since split).
- “The Steve Buscemi Mystery Tour”: Tim and Guy theorize, without having seen it, what type of accident could have led to the disfiguring injuries Steve Buscemi’s character sustained during Grown Ups 1. They posit scenarios that include vehicle crashes, wild animal attacks, and attempted self-murder/suicide through time travel to explain his misfortune.
- “The Shining Light”: The hosts’ one desperate shot at trying to find something, anything, to enjoy about their latest watch of the film. As you’d expect, the low-hanging fruit gets picked early in the early episodes, the technical aspects get stripped for parts near the middle, and near the end of the podcast’s run “The Shining Light” becomes one of the weirdest, most reliably hilarious segments, in which two beaten men desperately try to compliment their attacker.
Apart from the segments and commentary, much of the amusement of the show comes from listening to two active young men trying to wedge a viewing of a godawful movie into their weekly routine. 9:00 a.m. on Monday morning is what they first commit to, but that quickly devolves into bleary, late-night catch-ups, often recorded sotto voce as to not wake sleeping flatmates. At one point, Guy goes on a pre-planned, month-long holiday to Europe but is continually frustrated in his Skype-recorded sessions with Tim that he has to watch Adam Sandler and company frolic malevolently on an 11-inch screen while the treasures of the Continent lie just outside his hotel room window.
They record a commentary track to be watched along with the film, but still insist that this film must not be watched. They invite guests on the show, fellow comedians and film buffs, who provide additional humor as well as their pitying disbelief that Guy and Tim are inflicting this torture on themselves. Through it all, the pair remain resolute (if unhappy) in the face of what they’ve signed up for. It’s become part of their lives, something they’re saddled with that they can’t avoid and can only dread. Like Maika Monroe in It Follows, they must shrink from it, powerless, weaponless, running from a beast that lurches slowly towards them every seven days. (That’s an example of great film that they probably missed while locked in a monster movie of their own making.)
The belly of the beast lies in the 30s, but as the boys crest the 40th show, things begin to look up. The show evolves beyond mere self-harm for sport. The outlook is clearly brighter; the light, though faint, is at the end of the tunnel. The plan is to have their final, 52nd watch before a live audience in Los Angeles. The Indiegogo campaign they create to bankroll their trip to America reaches nearly 200 percent backing. The podcast commentary becomes more hopeful, less cynical. The pair arrive early in L.A. and record one episode of the podcast entirely in a local Kmart. (The film is rife with conspicuous Kmart product placement, which receives no end of speculation from the hosts about what dark pacts have been made to bring this cinematic monster to fruition.) They rent a camper van and stay overnight in Joshua Tree, delivering an ebullient show hardly concerned with the sad, small film they’ve watched on a portable DVD player in the darkness of the desert. They eat Blaze pizza. They get Patrick Schwarzenegger’s face tattooed on their butts.
And then, the hour arrives. Guy and Tim head to Cinefamily in L.A. to watch the film one last time and record a podcast in front of a live, sold-out audience. Two things strike me about their 52nd and last commentary on the film. Firstly, Guy and Tim, who have been on TV and radio in their native New Zealand but are unaccustomed to a world stage (certainly not one in L.A.), handle their SoCal crowd with astonishing ease. It shouldn’t really be a surprise for someone who has listened to more than 30 hours of these two, spinning entertainment out of deer piss, but I couldn’t help but be impressed at their onstage rapport, the way they bounce off each other, creating new bits and still finding comedy in a movie that has none, even in front of a cosmopolitan crowd 2000 miles away from home.
The second thing that struck me was their exhaustion. Call it jet lag, call it a semi-sleepless night with the coyotes at Joshua Tree, or blame the Vodka Red Bulls that undoubtedly flowed once they’d reached the City of Angels, but I imagined I heard a weariness in their voices as they cracked up the crowds at Cinefamily. They’d accomplished their goal, they had slain the beast, but in the end they were reduced somehow—mortal, like butter scraped across too much bread (to borrow a phrase from one of their countryman’s films). They’re present, but there’s a palpable sense that this is almost over, despite the fact that they’ve arrived in the Mecca of televised comedy, their show has hit over 650,000 downloads on iTunes, and they’re looking at a packed crowd that wants to hear them talk at length about Adam Sandler’s worst movie . . . in a few short hours, they’d finally be free. Only two things remained before the trip home: Episodes 53 and 54.
Episode 53 was a Q&A for the Cinefamily audience recorded just before their 52nd watch, in which Tim and Guy answered questions like “Where’s Tanya?” (an extra from the film who was teased by the pair for an on-air interview that never actually materialized), “Where’s Tim’s knife?” (don’t ask), and other minutiae about hobbits and Peter Jackson. It’s a fun show, though the duo’s obvious exhaustion makes it a little scattered. Episode 54, taped at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater in L.A. before a full audience, is where Guy and Tim would finally see the original author of all their pain: Grown Ups 1. Any “hero’s journey” metaphors are totally screwed at this point, but let’s say this is Sean Connery coming in at the end of Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves . . . or, more accurately, Patrick Stewart showing up at the end of Robin Hood: Men in Tights. The result is unsurprisingly sedate and a bit of a snoozer. Of course Grown Ups 1 is awful; what did they expect? They’ve won. The dragon is dead. Only so much fun can be had with tea-bagging its corpse.
Home now in their figurative (and, I suppose, literal) Shire, Guy and Tim are still at work. Guy co-hosts a Kiwi TV adaptation of the YouTube show FailArmy (which has a hilarious, jeremiad story of its own that is an article to itself), and Tim continues to work in television and on radio. If our slowly emergent Lord of the Rings metaphor were to continue, this would be the part where they’d live happily ever after and one of them would sail to the Undying Lands while the other . . . married his sweetheart or became mayor of the Shire or something. (The films are a little blurry on that part.) But, like the continually ending Return of The King, the story not quite over yet. A second season of The Worst Idea of All Time is currently in progressin which Tim and Guy, having learned nothing, tilting at new windmills and jesting at their scars (and tats), have committed to watching the film Sex and the City 2 once a week, every week, over the course of the next year. Their frenzied screams can be heard weekly, through iTunes and Stitcher or on their website, WorstIdeaofAllTime.com.
My recommendation: a must-listen, if not for improvisational comedy to rival Comedy Bang Bang, then at least to know exactly when to pull the trigger when someone says “Kill me . . . killlll meeeeeeee.”

Review: West Coast Premiere of “Our Class”
Aquinas writes that the conscience can be mistaken, from use of a false premiss. The play Our Class, as an exercise in conscience, depends on how securely it is “based on a true story,” as the publicity states. All too certainly, there is a true story of the two mass graves at Jedwabne, Poland. But what is it?
Playwright Tadeusz Slobodzianek was trained in Polish puppet theater, and perhaps puppets penetrate the soul with less distraction than actors in the flesh. Director Matthew McCray, of the Son of Semele Ensemble in Los Angeles, represents violence—a rape, murders, beatings—with stylized postures in the flow of conversation. A stacking of chairs is understood as a stacking of slain bodies. The slam of a chair to the floor is heard as the crack of knuckles against a skull. Wrapping one’s arms around a chair from behind is the posture for grabbing a beard and cutting a victim’s throat. Artful puppetry conveys the penetrating thought, just short of driving the faint from the theater.
There is also the skipping of young children, with which the play begins—ten children: ethnically, five Polish, five Jewish, in the Polish town of Jedwabne. The play ends, after each has died in peace or in violence, with all recognizing each other simply, and turning toward the front of their classroom to sing a child’s song.
In between is a strenuously contested interpretation of Polish and Jewish history during WW II, while under Soviet Russian invasion from the east and Nazi German invasion from the west. During an interim between Russian departure and German arrival, some writers claim, the one thousand six hundred Poles of Jedwabne, acting on their own, without firearms, set upon and murdered their one thousand six hundred Jewish neighbors, without suffering a single loss.
“Half the town murdered the other half,” as published in popular commentaries of the event, including one by George F. Will, who surely can’t demonstrate what he claims to believe. Playwright Slobodzianek ‘s deft puppetry of the maneuvers might be the most plausible suggestion of the “military mastery of the Poles” hypothesis.
Slobodzianek doesn’t show how the one thousand six hundred Jews were ordered out of their houses and onto the town square. But he does relate an intention by his character the German Amskommendant, in white silk scarf, to “put the Jews in ordnung.” However, whether the initial roundup was driven by Poles or by Germans is left unstated.
Objections are held by some who resist the charge of Polish culpability: that the German Einsatzgruppen executed the event, while forcing some Poles, and inciting others, to assist. However, the playscript accepts a repeated narrative, which is that Poles exercised the sufficient animus, and the Germans the merest necessary. And it probes, as being necessary, attitudes of antisemitism, but also shows Jews favoring the new world of the Soviets.
It should be stated here and now that official numbers for the massacre, from the most recent investigation, stand at about 40 Polish perpetrators and 300-400 Jewish victims. So the swirl of numbers cautions us to distinguish between history and promotional commentary.
Here is the story told in the Son of Semele Ensemble production with the crispness of a snare drum: the pulse of voices, kick of boots, clink of glasses, slam of a chair. The tempo in the Friday performance was precise. The performers in each case established familiar personalities.
Division between the two ethnicities becomes severe with the Soviet invasion, and the young Polish men react against the invader, while watching the young Jews celebrate the Russian arrival, converting the church into a movie theater.
The Poles form a defense group, the White Eagle, getting drunk and plotting the execution of the Soviet Major. But one of the Polish boys, Zygmunt, has been duped into becoming an informant to the Major, and Russian reprisals follow against the plotting Poles. The informant’s secret perfidy leaves blame to fall violently on the Jews, a murder and a rape.
The Russians retreat, the German gendarmerie arrives, and the Amskommendant now manipulates Zygmunt into service of the Nazi Germans. His father was killed by the Russians, and this point is used by the commander. A pogrom has begun. The actors, moving in the round, describe the horror.
Jews are forced from their homes onto the town square to be paraded about and abused. Two of the Jewish classmates evade the roundup, and find uneasy accommodation with Polish lovers. On the square, classmate Zygmunt, conveying orders from the Germans, directs the Jews to enter a barn, under pretext of shelter for the night.
Within the barn a massacre is organized by a military veteran, old townsman Sielawa, commanding an axe, hammer, and butcher’s knife, backed by sticks and clubs. The veteran cuts the Rabbi’s throat and directs a systematic slaughter. Kerosene is poured into the barn, through the roof, by a giddy Pole, and the corners are set afire by four Polish classmates. Within, Dora drops her baby and chokes in the smoke.
The described system for slaughter is this: six killers per victim—two killers holding the victim’s arms, a third holds the legs; the axe man and the hammer man knock him out; the butcher cuts open the throat and belly. Two men throw the body into a prepared shallow pit. Rest breaks, with substitutions, are given for members of the slaughtering team. This process is implied as repeated indefinitely, with the murderers unhindered by the other victims waiting in the barn.
This interpretation is dramatically overwhelming, but a critic gripping his chair can find it difficult to accept the practical account of the activity within the barn. Such mastery by robust Poles seems unlikely without direct action by the armed German force. Some testimony holds that a German military truck rolled up and green uniforms jumped off with containers of gasoline. And how was the shallow pit in the barn prepared?
I make my reservations explicit because a popular narrative is being improvised in the sphere of reviews and publicity, with an iconic but false figure of “1,600” victims endlessly repeated. The innuendo blames Poles for the Holocaust, a canard resisted by both Poles and Jews.
The Los Angeles Consulate General for Poland made a significant misstep in approving and distributing the Ensemble’s publicity for Our Class, which referred to the massacre as “an act of wartime genocide.” Upon question from California Polonia, the Consulate corrected its phrase to “an act of wartime murder.” But the Ensemble retains the term “genocide” in its ad copy.
So the equivocation persists. Under the United Nations Convention for Genocide—i.e. the accepted definition—questions must remain at issue: who did it, and with what intent.
A president of Poland apologized for the massacre, but did so prior to the forensic investigation. And then the forensic investigation was shut down, prematurely and abruptly.
At his Colin Miller Memorial Lecture in 2003, I questioned the honoree, Prof. Jan T. Gross, author of the popular exposition of this massacre, about the premature termination of the forensic investigation, which he acknowledged with disapproval, stating, “And had it not been prematurely terminated, then we would really know.”
Hence, we do not really know. Aquinas would indicate a weak minor premiss: the how and who of the event. As instructional material, the play would need special handling to be presented without objection in the California school system, for which State Education Code requires accuracy and proscribes adverse reflection. And hence, the forensic investigation must be resumed to settle the question.
The barn scene ends the first act. The second act concludes with smarmy conduct by the Poles, concealing their shame, and frustration by Menachem, now a lieutenant in Soviet security, limited and hindered by his superiors while attempting to secure revenge and justice against his murderous classmates. A Rabbi from New York, himself one of the Jedwabne classmates, arrives to deliver his indictment.
I speak of a framework of puppetry, but the flesh and blood actors create characters with which we become familiar since their childhood in their classroom. This enables cutting ironies to be expressed—the Jewish bride of the rescuing Pole receives wedding gifts from the Jews’ despoiled houses; the priest uneasily affirms the heroism of the murdered Rabbi, while the script has it that he himself participated.
Reviewed here is the West Coast premiere of Our Class, by Tadeusz Slobodzianek, in translation by Ryan Craig, presented by the Son of Semele Ensemble at the Atwater Village Theater, 3269 Casitas, Los Angeles 90039, with performances extended through May 11. Tickets and information: sonofsemele.org.
For an historian’s analysis, consider The Massacre at Jedwabne, by Marek Jan Chodakiewicz, holder of the Kosciusko Chair of Polish Studies at the Institute of World Politics. For the function of the German military photographers who were reported, without explanation, by Prof. Gross, as present at the massacre, consider this disturbing photograph and its caption: this is Kovno, or Kaunas, in Lithuania—but also what the Jedwabne crimes may have looked like, including uniforms. God keep and rest the souls.

Silicon Valley is the epicenter of companies with cool perks, and now we can add Evernote to this list. Based in Mountain View, Calif., Evernote employees work in a creative yet productive environment and have access to some of the best perks in the business. My favorite perk is the twice-monthly professional housecleaning.
Adam Bryant of the New York Times recently interviewed Phil Libin, chief executive officer of Evernote. In his interview, Libin talks about Evernote’s corporate culture, the benefits of working at the company and of course, the twice-monthly housekeeping service. Bryant asked Libin why he decided to offer housecleaning to his employees. His response:
“We thought that we needed to get spouses and significant others on our side. I want the pressure from them to be, 'You better not be thinking about leaving Evernote.' I don’t want the pressure to be, 'Maybe you should think about going somewhere else?'"
I like that kind of perk and as a spouse of someone who works for a company with great benefits — although it doesn’t have the outside-the-box type of benefits of Evernote — I can appreciate the “you better not be thinking about leaving your company" train of thought.
Evernote employees also have unlimited vacation and don’t have to worry about pesky office phones interrupting their busy workday. In a region where companies try to out-perk one another, Evernote definitely stands out.
If you’d like to take advantage of the unlimited vacation, no office phone and professional housekeeping services offered at Evernote, you may be in luck. The company has several positions open at its Mountain View campus including engineers for Android, Mac OS X, and iPhone OS as well as system administrators, a human resources manager and even two internships.

Mid South Synergy consumers may experience electric power outages as a result of tornados, high winds, lightning and flash flooding that could be associated with Hurricane Ike’s landfall forecasted for early Saturday morning 9/13 along the upper gulf coast of Texas.
Where this storm makes landfall will ultimately determine the extent of damage and hazardous conditions, and of course, the extent of any inconvenience to residents. Consumers in the six counties served by Mid South Synergy are encouraged to consider electric safety during and after the storm.
If used improperly, a back-up generator can make life a lot more dangerous!
If you plan to use a portable back-up generator for temporary electric power, follow the manufacturer instructions to protect you and your family. Also, DO NOT connect the generator to the house wiring unless you have had a qualified electrician hook up the standby electrical system, including the installation of a transfer switch to isolate the generator from the electric utility service. Without the transfer switch, the power from the generator will “back feed” through the transformer and raise the voltage to 7,200 volts, a level that can easily kill any serviceman trying to restore the power down the line. In addition, when the power is restored, it may cause an electrical fire and /or destroy the generator.
Downed Power Lines
Assume that any downed power line is “live.” If power lines are lying on the ground or dangling near the ground, do not touch the lines. Notify your utility company or local law enforcement authorities as soon as possible that the lines have been damaged, or that the lines are down. Do not attempt to move or repair the power lines. If you can, stay nearby to warn others away from the downed line.
Wiring and Appliances Exposed to Water
If you have appliances or equipment exposed to water, never assume they are safe to use after they have dried. Before you try to use any electrical appliance that has been exposed to water, take it to a qualified service technician.

With a storm of this magnitude we have taken extra precautions as we are in the final stages of planning with crews being strategically staged throughout our territory for power restoration efforts after Ike has left our area. Rest assured that if this hurricane affects the area, Mid South Synergy will have crews working to restore its members' electric service. We do not plan to send crews out during the storm, as safety is our number one priority. At this time, Mid South crews will be working until midnight on 9/12 because of necessary final planning. After midnight tonight, depending on the severity, path and duration of Hurricane Ike we do not intend to send crews out until Hurricane Ike has passed and is at a safe distance away from our service territory. We will then mobilize our damage assessment teams for the coordination of restoration operations.
Mid South offices and communications
At this time each of our offices in Huntsville, Navasota and Montgomery will be open to the public until 5 pm on Friday and will remain closed during the weekend. However we will be accepting correspondence (such as outage information) through our nite-drop boxes and drive in window facilities. If customers feel the need to contact us for any reason over the weekend (in the event of Ike), we strongly encourage them to utilize our automated outage reporting system by dialing our number 1-888-525-6677, option #1. We also encourage our members to access our website www.midsouthsynergy.com for updated press releases and outage reporting.

If you’re one of the 15 million people who has visited Mission Bay in the last year, you know what a special place it is for the region. City leaders and planners decades ago envisioned the Bay as a system of Parks Within a Park to take advantage of the size and varied resources offered, and to create distinctive recreation areas. (See the Mission Bay Master Plan). Central to the Parks Within a Park vision was the consolidation of natural resources in the DeAnza Cove area, and the preservation of wetlands.
Newer entertainment and recreational offerings have come at a cost to the historic natural resources. Today, Mission Bay’s Kendall Frost Reserve in the northeast quadrant of the Park, hosts 40 acres of tidal wetlands, a mere one percent of the 4,000-acre complex that existed historically. This small remnant is fenced with controlled access for preservation purposes but is home to 154 species of native birds that frequent the marsh, as well as fish, reptiles, and crabs and other invertebrates, all depending on this small wetland for survival.
DEANZA COVE PLANNING AND REWILD
City leaders in December 2015 launched an initiative to plan for the long-term future of DeAnza Cove (an amendment to the Mission Bay Master Plan). For no fewer than three years, the City sought community input on the redevelopment of DeAnza Cove while taking into consideration major goals of the Mission Bay Master Plan such as the restoration and creation of additional wetlands, and the Parks Within a Park concept. As of Summer 2019, the plan has not been completed, although three alternate land use proposals were developed. Critical to these land use plans is integrating the vision for the Mission Bay Master Plan, and chief among these is the restoration of wetlands.
Enter San Diego Audubon Society with their long term vision for wetland restoration in the northeast corner of the Bay– ReWild Mission Bay – to provide opportunities for plants, animals, and neighbors to thrive, and survive as our climate warms and water levels rise. The plan includes access points to invite in the public to enjoy the nature in our collective backyard. Where the City’s plan alternatives offer some options for wetland restoration, ReWild offers a larger restored wetlands area.
Our collective goal? To ensure the city gives ReWild a deliberative and serious hearing as part of any long-term plan for DeAnza Cove that accommodates projected sea level rise and considers both community resources and coastal dependent land uses for the long-term success of the Bay.
In Fall 2018, C-3 hosted a Breakfast Dialogue on the topic of ecotourism to explore the long-term development of Mission Bay. That led us to begin a partnership in early 2019 with the San Diego Audubon Society, UCSD Natural Reserve System, and Scripps Institute of Oceanography. We urged the City to pause the planning process and ensure that a robust restoration of wetlands is considered in addition to improving recreational opportunities and developments. This effort has been in major support of the ReWild vision with the goal of creating new and unique recreation experiences for all San Diegans and tourists alike, with trails, vistas, peaceful fishing spots, non-motorized boat access, and plenty of space for camping and the fields and grass that the community uses and has prioritized.
Join our advocacy efforts by attending an upcoming Mission Bay Advocacy Meeting.
The C-3 Mission Bay Park Advocacy team is preparing a 4 year strategy to align with the City of San Diego’s long range planning efforts specific to the DeAnza and Campland properties.
This strategy includes:

They’d just walked from Walmart, which wasn’t too far away. But it wasn’t too hot yet. Offered to give them a ride back to their car. Know you shouldn’t do that but I did.
They declined and we began talking about my book and writing projects. Expressed much interest in ‘Till Death Do Ua Part,’ and they happen to live not far from us. Seemed like they understood the subplot of having a brain injury and being forever changed. May meet them or something soon to give them a copy.
Miss Jessica also comment commented how trying and overwhelming it would be as us for parents to watch our own young children having to go through something like that. Blessed. And it’s a blessing to bless others.
At lunch today with Alyssa at Taco Bell, we happened to sit by a gal with her two young children, ages 1 and 3. Got to talking and she said she and her husband really wanted to read my book. Said they’ll review it for me on Amazon (thank you, Miss Jessica and husband), then pass it along to others. We’re trying to expose awareness of brain injuries….which is why I’m putting this next book together. Slowly.
Loving the brain injury support group on facebook that I’m a part of. Wonderful to have a group of people all over the world who have been affected by brain trauma and realize and comprehend what each other is going through. Most of these would be brain injuries and it does include a number of caregivers and medical personnel. Privilege to have a good relationship with a number of them. Messaging several on fb and usually speaking to another on the cellphone on a regular basis. Jamie and Asheley, two brain injury survivors who are combatting this wicked condition without physical symptoms in a way have a harder time. In a way a blessing, but in another quite unfortunate in that the majority of people do not understand the intricacies of their/our condition. (Just with my physical impairments it may be more obvious.) Most people usually do not take the time of day to understand or rationalize that they are not making up their impairments, their symptoms and unfortunate characteristics up. And so glad I’m thinking of this late at night now….maybe some of it can be used in an upcoming book I’m working on. Excited to get to work with Jamie nearly every other month; and those locally from the hospital’s brain injury support group on a more frequent basis, and also my other friend from church who was in my small group. Yes, it is a delight but also a tragedy there are so many of us. This only represents a sample. If research from my book holds true, unless more frequent now, a TBI occurs every fifteen seconds. | <urn:uuid:cfdca09b-d7b1-41e8-9554-e02a08cd6692> | CC-MAIN-2020-50 | http://lettucewrite.com/2017/06/ | 2020-11-29T19:41:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-50/segments/1606141202590.44/warc/CC-MAIN-20201129184455-20201129214455-00376.warc.gz | en | 0.973988 | 636 |

The emotional impact of identity theft is far-reaching and extends well beyond the initial discovery and subsequent process of clearing the theft.
The Identity Theft Resource Center routinely conducts focused surveys on identity theft, asking victims who have reached out for support from the organization to participate in the voluntary research to help the industry better understand the root causes, illicit methods, and recovery experience from this type of crime.
The survey results are then compiled into a report that the ITRC shares with a wide variety of industry stakeholders to help develop a broader picture of what identity theft really entails.
On Wednesday, October 29, the ITRC and other industry organizations will celebrate the 11th annual National Cyber Security Awareness Month with the release of the ITRC’s most recent survey report, “Identity Theft: The Aftermath.”
The Aftermath survey polls identity theft victims who’ve reached out to the ITRC for support, and asks them some poignant questions about how being a victim has impacted their lives. Apart from the details shared about what is involved in recovering from an identity theft, survey respondents also shared personal stories of financial and personal security effects, and the impact on their sense of trust.
According to one victim and survey respondent, “I haven’t been able to get a loan to go back to school and finish my degree, which has made finding a job nearly impossible.” Identity theft is now affecting this victim’s livelihood, and leaving emotional and financial damage.
Please join us next Wednesday, when the full survey results are unveiled, at a free live event at Google headquarters in Washington, DC. The panel of experts will discuss ways in which the industry as a whole can leverage this information to better serve victims and consumers.

A residential suburb that straddles three outer London Boroughs, including, a small part of east Barnet, a south-west corner of Enfield and a small northern corner of Haringey, New Southgate is a pocket of North London that acts as glue for neighbouring areas. History tells us that New Southgate only really emerged as a district because from 1851, as Colney Hatch was slowly erased from the names of schools, churches and most other organisations. Residents sought to distance themselves from a lingering social stigma associated to them by the large mental health institution, Colney Hatch Lunatic Asylum.
However, in that time, New Southgate has come into its own. What was the Colney Hatch Lunatic Asylum, is now the luxury residential housing of Princess Park Manor and Friern Village. It has its own rail station, New Southgate, that gets you into Central London in 20 minutes. Meanwhile it’s just 10 minutes’ walk to Arnos grove for the nearest Underground service. And due to its strategic location based around Arnos Grove roundabout, you have easy access to neighbouring areas, including schools, amenities and parks, such as Friary Park, Arnos Park, Broomfield Park, Brunswick Park and more.
Location, location, location is the name of the game when it comes to house hunting, and New Southgate’s unique, strategic location nestled between more affluent areas offers increased value. It takes the sought-after N11 postcode of its older brother, Southgate, but as it’s set around the outskirts of town, you tend to get a lot more house for your money, without losing any of the access to transport, amenities and entertainment.
The closest Underground Station is Arnos Grove in Zone 3 on the Piccadilly line.
New Southgate Station is in Zone 3 and can get to Moorgate (or Kings Cross at weekends) in 20 minutes.
New Southgate is well served by London Buses routes: 34, 184, 221, 232, 251, 298, and 382 pass through the area. Bus 34 runs overnight on Friday and Saturday nights between Barnet and Walthamstow Central. The N91 night bus runs between Cockfosters and Trafalgar Square nightly.

And corporate CEOs are receiving massive incomes at a time when the country has unacceptably high unemployment rates.
We have entered the Bermuda Triangle of economic indicators, where our economic compass has gone haywire. The U.S. stock market has entered a period of extreme volatility. Stock indexes lost over 5% of their value the day after S&P’s debt downgrade, only to fully bounce back a few days later.
Eventually, these extreme market fluctuations will subside. Until that occurs, however, the market’s volatility will ripple through the economy with very real, albeit uneven, force.
These wild fluctuations in the stock market are causing consumers to tighten their spending, thus causing increased pressure on small businesses. While large companies can weather the storm by dipping into cash reserves or discounting prices, the neighborhood business has no such buffer.
Small businesses, already squeezed for operating capital by vendors and lenders, will need to adopt methods to bring stability to an otherwise unstable and uncertain landscape.
Here are five such tips for doing so.
1. Request Better Payment Terms
Although banks are hesitant to provide small businesses with access to capital, there is an alternative form of financing available — trade credit. By asking for longer payment terms such as 60, 90 or even 120 days, a small business can turn their receivables into a form of operating capital.
2. Social Networking
Facebook and Twitter are not just for fun; they are also immensely powerful business tools for marketing and customer outreach. Even better, they are free. Chances are, your customers are already on these networks, which is why you need to be there too. Heed Seth Godin’s comment that “five thousand people who want to hear your message are more valuable than five million who don't.” Rather than cast a wide and perhaps ineffective marketing net, employ Facebook and Twitter to target your audience directly and inexpensively.
3. Improve Customer Service
Economic uncertainty often compels companies to reduce all expenses, but some cuts will prove more expensive in the long run. For example, as a cost savings, your competitors may be skimming on customer service. You should resist the impulse to do the same. Remember, it’s generally more expensive to acquire new customers than to keep existing ones. Furthermore, when others are cutting the quality of customer care, improvements to your service will get your company noticed.
4. Use Online Directories
In order increase traffic to your business (both online and off), seek out web directories that are free or where registration is relatively inexpensive. Google Places offers a free and useful directory of businesses. Bing, CityGrid and other business directories offer similar services through which consumers can learn about your company.
5. Separate Your Personal from Your Business Credit
Apply for a credit card under the name of your business as opposed to your own name. Building a business credit history distinct from your personal credit will enable your business to qualify for better payment terms, credit lines, loans and other forms of capital.
Keep in mind that banks and other lenders will not loan to a business if lacks sufficient credit history, so if you haven’t established credit card and checking accounts under your business’ name, now is the time. Over time, the switch will provide the double benefit of building up your business credit while protecting you from having to give personal guarantees. | <urn:uuid:b405b4f3-1a74-40ba-aa1e-b0b07ffaad95> | CC-MAIN-2016-07 | http://mashable.com/2011/09/08/economic-instability-small-business/ | 2016-02-11T17:18:11Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-07/segments/1454701162094.74/warc/CC-MAIN-20160205193922-00278-ip-10-236-182-209.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.950127 | 753 |
Summer Fruit Tortrix Moth
Carroll, Juliet; Peterson, Kelsey
The summer fruit tortrix moth is an insect pest native to Europe and Asia. It primarily feeds on apples, cherries, and pears, though it has over 50 other plant hosts. While summer fruit tortrix has yet to be discovered in the United States, its arrival and establishment could be devastating.

TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) - Hong Kong's Ann Hui has won the best director award for her movie "A Simple Life" at Taiwan's Golden Horse Film Festival.
The jovial veteran director says she was surprised that Saturday's award did not go to one of the promising younger directors also nominated at the event for Chinese-language movies.
"A Simple Life" also won Andy Lau the best actor award and Deanie Ip the best actress honor. Ip plays a domestic helper who copes with her own aging while serving her master, played by Lau.
Lau said the awards would encourage Hong Kong's lagging film industry to keep producing good movies.
The best film award went to Taiwanese director Wei Te-sheng's "Warriors of the Rainbow: Seediq Bale," an epic film about an aboriginal tribe's uprising against Japanese colonial rulers. | <urn:uuid:da6feb05-a3c1-4012-a04a-9160ef4074c5> | CC-MAIN-2017-04 | http://www.newstribune.com/news/news/story/2011/nov/27/simple-life-big-winner-taiwan-film-festival/491075/ | 2017-01-20T09:59:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-04/segments/1484560280825.87/warc/CC-MAIN-20170116095120-00512-ip-10-171-10-70.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.97355 | 182 |
Now that the server stuff has all been resolved, I’ve recovered from my illness, and even trimmed my beard, IC is back on its game. Here’s a megamix of singles that came my way in September and early October.
Welcome Back, Welcome Back, Welcome Back
1. “Land” – I, The Mountain. This band isn’t afraid to rock out a tune that starts out as a delicate folk tune, and the tension between the two moods makes the song. The video is also fun!
2. “Pinhole of Light” – Heart-Ships. If the Walkmen, The National, and Interpol collaborated on a tune, it might be this twitchy, nervous, and ultimately incredibly catchy.
3. “Dream On / Dream Off” – Ghost Twins. Shoegaze meets a four-on-the-floor beat and dark guitar riffs. I’m pretty sure this would be incredible live.
4. “Till You See” – Magazine Society. Dance-rock with a swooning emotive bent in the chorus? Muse would be proud.
5. “Big Night” – My Grey Horse. Hazy in mood but precise in execution, My Grey Horse walks the thin line between indie-pop and indie-rock memorably.
6. “Do You Ever?” – Phia. If you’re not familiar with the kalimba, Phia will show you how to use it in an infectious pop song. FFO: Regina Spektor, M.I.A., Ingrid Michaelson.
7. “Beginning” – FIGHTs. Nigh on unexplainable, except that this is the most celebratory instincts of several genres all clamoring for the attention of your ears at once. Absolutely great.
8. “8 Bit Intro + Hide in the Light” – Sir Wes Al Gress. Reaching into Girl Talk-influenced areas, Sir Wes gives us a fractured, bouncy, interesting take on electro.
9. “Tears Apart” – Letters to Fiesta. Combining Fleetwood Mac mysticism with propulsive post-punk rhythms and feel, things get awesome real quickly here.
10. “Caribbean Cask” – Casual Strangers. Do they have beaches on other planets? If so, this is the gently rolling soundtrack to your interstellar mai tai.
11. “Parking Drama” – Turing. This 15 minutes of slowly-unfolding, guitar-driven post-rock achieves that rare (but coveted) feel of a true dramatic/cinematic event via distinct movements.
12. “Hear Me Out” – Paper Electric. Somewhere between Bjork’s unusual moods and The Postal Service’s clickitack indie-pop lies the oddly engaging Paper Electric.
13. “Monday” – Lonely Child. Chill R&B that calls up Radiohead tensions … with beatboxing. Yes.
14. “Listen” – Teen Daze. Teen Daze doesn’t need my help but his music is just so beautiful. I have to keep posting it.
15. “All’s Not Spoken” – Kayte Grace. Smooth, gospel-inflected singer/songwriter immerses me with strong vocals and trumpet. | <urn:uuid:522fba37-f433-46a6-b137-4c38f378859a> | CC-MAIN-2019-35 | http://independentclauses.com/singles-megamix/ | 2019-08-24T13:52:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-35/segments/1566027321140.82/warc/CC-MAIN-20190824130424-20190824152424-00200.warc.gz | en | 0.881072 | 723 |
How To Sell Digital Products At The Most Profitable WAY On JVZOO.
How To Sell Digital Products At The Most Profitable WAY On JVZOO, JVZoo Member addresses 5 major problems:
PROBLEM 1 -Memberships Platforms are Notoriously Hard to Setup & Integrate
Most solutions require more than one plugin or software to get going.
You have to create and configure multiple membership levels, deal with permissions and have to test each level to ensure users can access what they’ve just purchased.
Not to mention if you want specific features like drip feed content – that’s even more headaches. Then, of course, you have to integrate your product with a payment gateway or marketplace which is no picnic.
PROBLEM 2- You Need Separate Products To Create Pages and Secure Product Access
It’s super important to have a professional looking members area which is easy to navigate and gives users the best customer experience.
But, with most membership platforms or WordPress based solutions, you will need one solution to build these pages and another to deliver your content – that’s crazy. Worse still, these applications need to work together, free of bugs which is often the biggest problem.
PROBLEM 3- Hosting Pages, Website Security & Maintenance Is Too Complicated For Most
As a new vendor you have to navigate your way through hundreds of hosting plans, figure out site & server security & that’s even before you get started.
Then, of course, you have to make sure your membership software & page builders all work together – that’s 3 separate support desks to deal with when things go wrong.
PROBLEM 4- No Marketing Tools to Help Vendors Accelerate Their Growth
Most membership platforms are missing the basic things like customers satisfaction surveys and User Quizzes to Test what they learned.

President Trump addressed his Monday comments regarding how his predecessors communicated with the families of fallen soldiers without budging, and this time he brought chief of staff John Kelly into it. He originally claimed that "most of" his predecessors didn't make such calls, including President Obama, a stance softened to Obama "probably did sometimes and maybe sometimes he didn't. I don't know. That's what I was told." Politico reports that in a Fox News radio interview, Trump reiterated that he believed it to be unclear how former presidents handled things: "As far as other representatives, I don't know. I mean, you could ask General Kelly did he get a call from Obama," referring to when Kelly's son died in November 2010. "You could ask other people. I don't know what Obama's policy was. I write letters, and I also call."
Kelly's son, 2nd Lt. Robert Kelly, lost his life in Afghanistan by stepping on a land mine. That the subject even came up is the fault of CNN, which raised the question Monday, and fake news, Trump said: "There's nothing to clarify. This was, again, fake news CNN. I mean, they're just a bunch of fakers." NBC News and the Hill both received confirmation from a White House official that Kelly did not receive a call from Obama. The official didn't specify whether Obama reached out via letter or some other form of communication. As for Trump, "I think I've called every family of somebody that's died, and it's the hardest call to make."

Packing a healthy school lunch
A school lunch should give children the energy and nutrients they need to
get them through an active afternoon. When planning lunches keep these tips in mind:
- Include at least one serving from each food group from Canada‘s Food Guide
- Rather than buying pre-made lunch kits, make your own healthy “lunch kit” with divided containers and small ‘bite-sized” crackers, cheese cubes, left over chicken chunks, veggie sticks or fruit slices
- Get your kids to eat more veggies…send cucumber coins, zucchini sticks and pepper strips with dip
- Don’t drink your fruit…send water instead. Save the 100% fruit juice for home

In this article, Martin Bond discusses XML and its associated APIs and standards, and how XML can be used to create flexible structured data that is inherently portable. This excerpt is from chapter (Day) 16 of Teach Yourself J2EE in 21 Days, second edition, by Martin Bond, et. al. (Sams, ISBN: 0672325586)
Today, we take a bit of a departure from J2EE and its emphasis on programming elements to look at what is fast becoming the lingua franca of the Internet—the Extensible Markup Language (XML).
Throughout the book so far, you have seen many ways in which XML is used within J2EE applications to describe the structure and layout of the application. Today and tomorrow, you will study XML and its associated APIs and standards to gain a fuller understanding of how XML can be used to exchange data between different components in your applications.
Today, you will learn about
How XML has evolved from the need for platform-independent data exchange
The relationship between XML and both Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML) and Hypertext Markup Language (HTML)
How to create well-formed and valid XML documents
The Java API for XML Processing (JAXP)
How to process XML documents with the Simple API for XML (SAX) and the Document Object Model (DOM)
How XML is used in the J2EE platform
This book is about J2EE, of which XML is just a component. To learn more about XML, take a look at Sams Teach Yourself XML in 21 Days, which covers everything you need to know about XML and related standards.
The Drive to Platform-Independent Data Exchange
Applications essentially consist of two parts—functionality described by the code and the data that is manipulated by the code. The in-memory storage and management of data is a key part of any programming language and environment. Within a single application, the programmer is free to decide how the data is stored and represented. Problems only start when the application must exchange data with another application.
One solution is to use an intermediary storage medium, such as a database, and standard tools, such as SQL and JDBC, to gain access to the data in such databases.
But what if the data is to be exchanged directly between two applications, or the applications cannot access the same database? In this case, the data must be encoded in some particular format as it is produced, so that its structure and contents can be understood when it is consumed. This has often resulted in the creation of application-specific data formats, such as binary data files (.dat files) or text-based configuration files (.ini, .rc, .conf, and so on), in which applications store their information.
Similarly, when exchanging information between applications, purpose-specific formats have arisen to address particular needs. Again, these formats can be text-based, such as HTML for encoding how to display the encapsulated data, or binary, such as those used for sending remote procedure calls. In either case, there tends to be a lack of flexibility in the data representation, causing problems when versions change or when data needs to be exchanged between disparate applications, frequently from different vendors.
XML was developed to address these issues. Because XML is written in plain text, and shares similarities with HTML but uses self-describing elements, XML provides a data encoding format that is
And perhaps most importantly, license-free

On Thursday April 4, 2019 the Fowler Center had the opportunity to present their “Employees for the Global Goals” workshop to the Provost Scholars. The Provost Scholars program is a partnership between Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) and East Cleveland City Schools. The Provost Scholars travel to CWRU two times a week to participate in mentoring and seminars, among with other opportunities.
The presentation was given by Fowler Center Senior Director Katherine Gullett and AIM2Flourish Manager Megan Buchter. Topics covered included an introduction the the UN Sustainable Development Goals, or Global Goals, and provocative questions surrounding how the participants might support and apply the Global Goals in their current and future lives.
The Fowler Center is grateful to the Provost Scholars Program for including us in their programming and for allowing us the opportunity to present to a group of such inspiring young people.

I’m starting a semi-regular feature on this blog dedicated to computer bugs. When I have written a lot, it will become a book.
The business of making anything very large and very complex also robust and reliable is hard. Software that represents hundreds (and sometimes thousands) of man-years of human effort, all of it devoted to managing complexity by the use of programming languages, is by any meaningful measurement both large and complex.
There are a lot of large, complex things in the world whose robustness and reliability we rely on for our lives and livelihoods. We build bridges, buildings, dams, power plants, vehicles, sewer systems, power distribution systems, waste treatment plants, communications networks, legal systems, and medical equipment the failure of which could cost many lives and/or enormous amounts of money.
And we need to be able to build computers at least as reliable as those systems. For the professionals in the industry, the quality of the software we produce is already something we rely on for our livelihoods. For our customers, it is what they rely on for their entertainment, for their communications, for their productivity, usually for their own livelihoods, and sometimes for their lives as well. And for everybody, software is increasingly a necessary part of the operation and/or construction all of the other large, complex public systems that we are all forced to rely on for our lives and livelihoods.
Doing good software QA has so far seemed to be an art that exceeds human understanding. No matter how many things you remember to check for, a new bug will always be one you didn’t check for. Bugs always appear in new contexts and new systems, and their variety seems infinite. There just isn’t a checklist you can run down to see that your software is secure or bug free.
But I started thinking about that, in the context of a flight instructor who had explained, in detail, that the pre-flight checklists that pilots and crews use before takeoff are figuratively written in blood. Every item on those lists is an item which has failed or been left undone on a previous flight usually with fatal results. These items are on the checklists because specific people died in specific crashes as a result of not checking them. Aviation checklists are a pilot’s way of trying not to die of a mistake another pilot has already made.
Aviation checklists will never be a way of certifying the complete safety of aircraft. Failures of design, maintenance, and pilot alertness can render any aircraft unsafe. So can sabotage, enemy action in wartime, hijackings, bird strikes, obstructed runways, re-entering satellites, and random falling cows. No matter what you check for, a new aircraft crash will be caused by something you didn’t check for. Malfunctions and failures always appear in new contexts and new systems, and their variety seems infinite. There just isn’t a checklist you can run down to see that your aircraft is safe.
But the checklists help. A pilot who checks to make sure of the things that are known to have killed other pilots, or helped them to survive, is in fact much less likely to repeat fatal mistakes. Things caught as pilots go down the checklists have saved a lot of lives. And a pilot who is aware of the things on the checklist is more aware of how his or her plane works and what conditions must be met for its safe operation in general.
That leads me to an approach to software QA that I don’t think I’ve seen much attention devoted to. Software QA books are mostly written in the form of “ought to’s” and “shoulds” and “I think this practice will reduce this kind of error” and other such propositions. We need to do that kind of thinking, but we need to do it in the context of a body of specific, citable evidence in the form of cases, against which that advice can be checked. I can’t easily think of anyone who has sat down and looked at a big set of real evidence – meaning specific bugs that actually happened in the context of specific software – and tried to draw from them a list of items to check.
Instead, people have attempted to extract very broad principles and patterns that apply to all bugs, and in some cases the result has been on the level of personal opinions and platitudes. This is because the topic is so large and complex that confirmation bias can confirm any pattern that people expect to find and people can see in it whatever they’re prepared to see in it or hope to see in it. It takes very disciplined thought, or obsessive attention to minutiae, or both, for a human being to see instead what is actually there.
So, I’m proceeding to the other end of the spectrum from the kind of software QA books I’ve seen in the past. I’m not going to try to deal with the data as a huge undifferentiated mass, and present a general system or methodology that should help with everything. I’m not the kind of super-genius who could look at all the data and understand it all at once, and see what’s there instead of what I expect to see, and develop a methodology to find or eliminate all bugs. Even if I did understand all the data at once, I don’t believe that I could derive from it an underlying principle that explains or can be used to prevent the origins of all bugs, because I don’t really believe such a principle exists.
So instead of trying to be that brilliant in terms of a big picture, I’m going to concentrate what may be obsessive attention on minutiae. I’m going to try to deal with the data as individual cases, and try to extract at most a few specific applicable lessons from each case. I’m going to try to make a meaningful checklist.
This proceeds at least in part from my belief that actually reviewing cases of real bugs, in the context of thinking about what caused them and what could have warned of their emergence, will help people to understand how and why bugs happen in a broader sense, and to think more broadly about how their software works and what conditions have to be true for it to work well. Checklists make planes safer, I believe, at least as much because they promote a more general understanding of the aircraft and its design and its needs, as because of the individual items they remind people to check. In a similar vein, this is a work which hopes to promote a more general understanding of software and how errors happen to it and affect it, as much as a checklist of specific items and lessons.
I hope to help raise the bar of basic knowledge to the point where we can have more meaningful, informed, evidence-based discourse about the broad software QA principles everyone tries to derive, or about general practices to help us avoid the circumstances and conditions in which bugs arise.
So: Welcome to my Journal of Cybernetic Entomology. I hope you like bugs, because we’re going to meet a lot of them. | <urn:uuid:d9560692-aac1-4399-b87e-7d2cd25cf04a> | CC-MAIN-2018-34 | http://dillingers.com/blog/2015/02/12/cybernetic-entemology/ | 2018-08-21T19:16:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-34/segments/1534221218899.88/warc/CC-MAIN-20180821191026-20180821211026-00466.warc.gz | en | 0.96648 | 1,480 |

Salvage Team on its way from Cape Town – Friday 16th June
A salvage team from SMIT Salvage, under the leadership of Salvage Master Captain Ian Carrasco, left Cape Town on Friday 16th June destined for Tristan da Cunha with the aim of solving the challenging problem of the grounded PXX1.
A reassuring message received from the company is optimistic in its style :
‘ We can assure you that our team is comprised of experienced professionals who are motivated by the prospect of a challenge and look forward to working and communicating with locals in an open and transparent manner. Please be aware that we run all of our operations with due care for personnel safety, operational safety, environmental protection and live and work by the slogan ‘ “Do it right- first time”.’ Salvage Team’s Rough Journey West – Tuesday 20th June
The salvage team aboard tug ST ‘Zouros Hellas’ captained by Salvage Master Ian Carrasco have reported a delayed passage to Tristan da Cunha due to high seas. The crew have been suffering sea-sickness and the estimated arrival time at the Edinburgh anchorage is now 18.00 GMT on Thursday 22nd June.
The team will have room for two Islanders with local knowledge of the Trypot Bay site of the stricken oil platform ‘A Turtle’, and will proceed to this site as soon as formalities are cleared with the Tristan Government Administration. Salvage Tug ST Zouros Hellas
The tug is 1487 gross tonnes & 66.7 metres long. Its two engines can produce 10,000 BHP and it has a maximum speed of 15 knots, and a service speed of 11 knots. It has accommodation for 27 officers and crew. The tug carries several towing wires up to 1800 metres long and with a gauge of 26 or 32 mm.Rescue Mission Underway
ST Zouros Hellas arrived at 16.30 GMT on Thursday 22nd June at the Tristan anchorage, passing MV Edinburgh en route to Cape Town. The salvage team came ashore for a planning meeting. It was decided to travel to Trypot Bay to reconnoitre the site, including looking at anchorage positions taking depth soundings. They plan to take the tug in close enough to the rig to attach lines to it and then work from there.
A team of Islanders was headed by Police Inspector Conrad Glass, and Natural Resources Officer James Glass, accompanied by Mark Swain, John Lavarello and Martin Green. John and Martin are fishermen with local knowledge of the Trypot reef gained from setting crawfish pots over the years. The party departed in the small police RIB, with James Glass travelling on the tug. All the Islanders returned in the RIB. Rig Inspection Complete – calculations to re-float underway
Poor weather between Saturday 24th June and Monday 26th June prevented Islanders joining the rescue team aboard the tug Zouros Hellas. Radio reports indicated that the team have completed their rig inspection and were calculating whether the rig could be successfully re-floated.
On Tuesday 27th a RIB has set off from Calshot Harbour crewed by Neil Swain, Jack Green, Martin Green and John Lavarello. Report from Salvage Master Ian Carrasco received Tuesday 27th June
The rig has been inspected and it is believed that it can be floated off. The salvage team have been getting systems (compressor and emergency generator) running on board the rig. The Naval Architect is doing the necessary calculations to see what can be done to float the rig. It was discovered that one of the columns on the starboard side was flooded. Three columns on the starboard side aft are permanently aground, all other pontoons have floatation. Soundings have been taken to the seaward of the rig in preparation for removal. Thursday 29th June – 1st Flotation Attempt Fails – report from the salvors
The weather improved and at 08.40 the tug positioned herself close to the rig. The rubber boat was launched at 09.10 to pick up the floating line on the towing pennant of the rig and hand it to the tug. The tug anchored at 09.15 and preparations were made in the morning until using various power settings either side of high water at 15.00 in an effort to re-float A-Turtle. Although there was a lot of shaking in the rig, she did not move one cm. During the towing, the salvage team worked on the rig to replenish some fuel for the navigation lights generator and the emergency set. The re-floating effort was stopped at 17.00 and the tug retrieved her anchor at 17.30 as the wind and sea had increased again. Following the failure of Salvage Tug ST Zouros Hellas to free the stricken rig, a decision has been made to mobilise a second tug to help free A Turtle from the Trypot reef. Saturday 1st July An attempt was made to get aboard the rig A Turtle but the swell was too big to gain safe access. Sunday 2nd July
The salvage team expected to carry out a dive inspection on the starboard side pontoon but dive conditions (swell and visibility) were not suitable. Also found that two ballast tank on the starboard side are flooded having been penetrated from the outside. They are preparing to place pumps on board to see if they can reduce the quantity of ballast water on board through pumping or air pressurisation. This will take a few days to set up in preparation for when the second tug arrives. Monday 3rd July – News from Salvage Master Ian Carrasco
Conditions at the Rig in Tripod Bay were again suitable for gaining access today. The salvage team is at present fabricating flanges for air connections for pressurizing the tanks that are tidal. [Open to the sea] In addition electric pumps and hoses have been positioned in the starboard pump room in an attempt to lower the level of water, and create more buoyancy when it comes time to re-float the rig. Approximately 100 tons of water was pumped out of the starboard centre column in 2.5 hours today. Soundings taken today indicate that the port [seaward side of rig] ballast tanks are intact. [not open to the sea] Status of the rig remains unchanged since the previous inspection, although the rig is still being subjected to heavy bottom contact on the port side, with resultant shuddering. Tuesday 4th July – News from Salvage Master Ian Carrasco
The salvage team did not manage to gain access to the Rig this morning due to the prevailing onshore winds and unsettled sea conditions.
The second tug, Fairmont Sherpa, is now scheduled to leave Cape Town during the morning of Wednesday 5th July, ETA Tristan Monday 10th or Tuesday 11th July. The tug has a capacity of some 200 tons bollard pull. It is now calculated, that, in tandem with ST Zouros Hellas, it should provide enough power to re-float the Rig. Friday 7th July – Edited news bulletin from Salvage Master Ian Carrasco
Very strong north-west winds and rough seas have prevented access to the rig this morning and the forecast is poor for the weekend ahead.
Plans for the dispatch of a second tug from Cape town have been changed and delayed. It is understood that the tug ‘Sea Tiger’ is due to depart on Saturday 8th July, ETA Tristan da Cunha Thursday 13th or Friday 14th July.Monday 10th July – Edited news bulletin from Salvage Master Ian Carrasco
Strong winds over the weekend have continued to prevent access to A Turtle, and today there are strong South West winds and heavy seas. It is thought seas will moderate tomorrow, meanwhile the tug Zouros Hellas has anchored at the Tristan Settlement anchorage and some of the crew are spending a few hours ashore.
The tug Sea Tiger’s departure from Cape Town has been further delayed.Tuesday 11th July – Edited news bulletin from Salvage Master Ian Carrasco
The salvage team was not able to board the Rig again this morning due to a large SW swell and unsettled sea conditions, which makes it unsafe for them to board by R.I.B.
Yesterday afternoon the Tug “Sea Tiger” was ready to leave Cape Town for Tristan when she encountered technical problems in the engine room, and was not able to depart. We are awaiting confirmation as to the extent of the damage and time frame necessary for her to complete the repairs. In the meantime the Owners/Underwriters of the Rig “A Turtle” are looking at other alternatives.
At present we are anchored off the Settlement seeking shelter from the South Westerly swell.Wednesday 12th July –
Rescue mission encounters further problems :
A Turtle further damaged by storms – search for 2nd tug continues –
Latest Edited News from Salvage Master Ian Carrasco (Corrected 14th July)
The salvage team managed to board the Rig today to carry out an inspection, and continue with efforts in preparation for the second pull attempt. As a result of the low pressure frontal system that passed through the Island over the last few days, further damage has been noted on board the Rig:
No 2 column on the starboard side is letting in water through several cracks
No 4 & 5 SB ballast tanks on the starboard side are breached and letting in water
The rig is now listing 2.5 degrees to port. [ Previously 2 degrees ]
Our Naval Architect is re-evaluating the situation on board the Rig, which should be complete by tomorrow with recommendations. The salvage team has been making steady progress on board. Drainage of compartments continues, and we expect to carry out a dive inspection on the Rig when conditions are suitable.
No confirmation has been received to date on the availability of the second Tug, now that Sea Tiger is not available, and the Rig Owners are looking at the possibility of using a tug working out of Cameroon – West Africa , which may be available from 13th July. Thursday 13th July
Latest Edited News from Salvage Master Ian Carrasco
The salvage team managed to board the Rig today to carry out an inspection, and continue with efforts in preparation for the second pull attempt. During the inspection a further ballast tank on the inboard starboard pontoon was found to be tidal, 2 m of water was found in the pump-room on inner starboard side, and efforts to pump water from flooded columns and ballast tanks continue. No further news of a 2nd tug being booked to assist. During dives it was confirmed that the rig remained in its original position when it went aground on the Trypot reef, and this contradicts a report, received on 12th July and based on GPS, that the rig had moved 27 metres towards the shore. That report has now been erased. Saturday 15th July
Latest Edited News from Salvage Master Ian Carrasco
The salvage team boarded the rig and the inspection revealed details of breaches to columns and build up of black volcanic sand. The rig was ballasted today on the port side pontoon to secure it on the sea bed in anticipation of bad weather approaching.

Latest Edited News from Salvage Master Ian Carrasco
The salvage team were not able to gain access to the rig today due to unfavourable weather conditions. There is no further news on the passage of a second tug, following problems with Sea Tiger’s sea worthiness a week ago, and attempts to book another tug on 12th July. Wednesday 19th July
Report from Tristan Administrator Mike Hentley
Captain Ian Carrasco came ashore yesterday as they were sending a crew member back to Cape Town on the Kelso (which sailed on Tuesday evening) on end of contract. He and his team have succeeded in stabilising the rig so that, once refloated, it will be seaworthy enough to make it to a dockyard for the full repairs needed. But the company have yet to complete arrangements to charter the second tug needed to refloat it and take it safely and securely under tow. Warren Glass of Natural Resources Department will join the salvage team environmental officer to ensure that all of our conservation interests are being met, and the Island Store is providing additional supplies for the crew as their stay here has been longer than initially planned! Thursday 20th July – Thursday 27th July
Latest Edited News from Salvage Master Ian Carrasco
Warren Glass joined the vessel on 20th July, and stores from the Island Store were taken aboard. Poor weather continued to prevent access for this period. No further news of a second tug being secured to assist in re-floating the rig. Friday 28th July – 42nd day of Zouros Hellas’ rescue mission
Salvage Mission postponed for better weather and a more powerful tug
Latest Edited News revised on 1st August
Heavy weather conditions off Tristan da Cunha continue as forecast. A decision has been taken to postpone attempts to re-float the oil rig A Turtle until winter weather has moderated, so Zouros Hellas has now returned to Cape Town. The salvors will await favourable conditions and the availability of suitably powerful tug (s). This is unlikely to be until September at the earliest. The Insurance Company have advised Tristan that they are reputable, are not abandoning their responsibilities but are merely deferring the operation until later in the year in the difficult circumstances.August 2006 – Tristan waits for news
Tristan da Cunha awaits the return of the salvors when a tug (s) of sufficient pull (200 tonnes +) become available. We learn that all are presently on long-term charter, but that 3 will become available in the second half of September, so that a float attempt is not now likely until early October, weather permitting.
The salvors have thanked the Islanders for their support and assistance during the attempted salvage operation. They have also assured the community that the rig only contains small quantities of pollutants, all safely contained on the upper decks of the rig, 15 metres above the waterline. The emergency generator on the second deck contains some 600 litres of gas oil, contained in a tank in the generator compartment. Most other oils and lubricants are contained in 25 litre containers and 210 litre drums.
Islanders have been warned to stay away from the rig, as it is nearly 40 years old, badly corroded, and poses a large safety risk to any personnel on board.The rig was being towed to Singapore for repair and refurbishment. Meanwhile, winter seas continue to batter the stricken rig, which is directly offshore the Trypot Rockhopper Penguin Rookery to which breeding pairs are now claiming nest sites ready for egg laying in September.Despite assurances from optimistic salvors, there must be a concern that the rig could break up to an extent that a salvage operation ( to its planned destination of Singapore for repairs ) will not be worth the expense, given the original state of the rig and subsequent damage. Dives to make environmental assessment – report updated on 25th September
Divers Sue Scott and Geoffrey Fridjohn arrived on the SA Agulhas to carry out dives from the stranded oil rig to make an assessment of any alien marine life it might have brought into Tristan waters. Sue and Geoffrey have made previous studies of the Tristan marine habitat and tristandc.com awaits their findings with interest. Sue Scott is preparing a publication on the Tristan marine ecosystem and it is hoped an illustrated article will appear in the January 2007 Tristan Newsletter.
James Glass, Tristan Head of natural resources reports on 25th September that due to extremely bad weather only two dives have been carried out since their arrival. The first attempt to dive at the rig lasted only ten minutes due to heavy swell, the second, which occurred the next day (22nd September) was more successful lasting 55 minutes, and involved collecting specimens, and taking photos. In the better conditions of lighter swell and slightly improved visibility, they were able to examine the outer legs on the seaward side of the rig. The upright parts of the rig legs were coated with large quantities of dead coral, barnacle and oyster shells, while the horizontal sections had less coral but more oyster and other bivalve shells, amongst them were some live animals. Many of the barnacles (at least three species) at depth were alive, as were some oysters, a few small hard corals, a few large mussels, large dark red anemones, all of which are non-native to Tristan. Collections of all the living biota were made, and will be process in the next few days. The weather has since turn nasty but every opportunity will be taken to carry out more dives at the rig as soon as the weather improves.28th November 2006 A Turtle’s last rights : confined to the deep
tristandc.com can reveal that the Governor of St Helena and its dependency Tristan da Cunha has issued a permit under the Environmental Protection (Overseas Territories) Order 1988, for the stranded rig to be disposed of at sea, with due regard to meeting environmental concerns. We now expect a suitably experienced contractor to be appointed to undertake the job of removing the rig as soon as possible. Work could begin as early as mid-December. It may be that the Kelso will be chartered to support the salvage work. If so, the Edinburgh will probably replace the MV Kelso on the first New Year scheduled sailing between Tristan & Cape Town. 30th November : Oil Rig in perspective
This photograph was taken during the St Andrew’s Day circumnavigation of Tristan by HMS Edinburgh by Janice Hentley. It shows the grassy slopes of Tristan’s eastern extremity at Sandy Point, the Oil Rig still stranded of Trypot Bay, the rugged lava peninsular of Stony Hill protruding behind, and to the South West the jagged Nightingale Island. HMS Edinburgh’s helicopter also provided access to the rig for a survey team and we await their report and hopefully some spectacular photographs. 30th November : Swiss Oil Rig Newspaper Article
Zurich based newspaper Tages-Anzeiger has today published an article by journalist Christian Schmidt on the stranding of the oil rig “A Turtle” on the shores of Tristan da Cunha. The can be translated as : “An oil rig in a sea of silence”.tristandc.com and the Tristan Administration provided information for the story, and the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office have also provided a ‘Press Lines’ briefing containing questions and answers which are reproduced below. The January Tristan da Cunha Newsletter will feature a detailed feature on the oil rig saga, hopefully confirming its removal from Trypot’s shores. 11th December : Salvage Team Appointed to start work this month
A contract for the salvage of the oil rig was awarded to Titan Maritime of Fort Lauderdale, USA on 6th December. Their team of salvage workers will sail from Cape Town in two parties and will arrive over the Christmas period. Their aim will be to carry out the work as quickly as possible. A contract for an environmental inspection will be signed shortly. 14th December 2006
tristandc.com has learnt that a chartered plane will fly from Stansted Airport in England to Cape Town on 18th December with specialist equipment to be shipped to Tristan da Cunha to aid the efforts to remove the stranded oil rig from Trypot Reef. 26th December 2006
MV Kelso arrived on Friday 22nd December with the advance salvage party plus the environmental team who will be completing the marine survey which Sue Scott started during her September visit. The salvage work to prepare the rig for floating began on 23rd December and will take an estimated three weeks. 30th December 2006 The Titan salvage team have been working on the oil rig from MV Kelso all week in sometimes difficult conditions with strong winds and heavy sea swell. The environmental dive team (Warwick Sauer, Brian Godfrey & Ross Wanless) have also been assisting.The 3180 tonne salvage tug De Hong, built in 2000 in China, chartered by salvors Titan and sailed from Cape Town on Christmas Eve, Sunday 24th December, and arrived at Tristan on Friday 29th December. Captain Lu and his crew then took Towmaster Kees van Assem and the Titan new arrivals round to Trypot Bay. Once the tug is on station there, Kelso is expected to come up to the Settlement for supplies Salvage Underway Photograph from Tristan Administrator Mike Hentley of the salvage tug De Hong alongside the stricken oil rig A Turtle on Saturday 30th December getting (what is hoped will be) the final stage of the oil rig’s removal underway. Thursday 4th January : Progress report from Mike Hentley
Preparations for the refloat of the oil rig are going according to plan. Divers are starting to insert air bags in the flooded areas in order to give buoyancy to the pontoons and columns on which the structure will float. New wire is being spooled on the two huge winches aboard the rig which will be used to anchor it when the floating operations begin, and which then will help pull it off the reef when the towing starts. The plan is to lift her up and float her off, so surplus pipe work and structure (such as the helideck) will be cut away and back loaded on to the tug in order to reduce weight first (every 5 tonnes of scrap weight removed will give another centimetre of buoyancy – not a lot of people knew that!). A small team of Tristanians are assisting with the work: handling the boats shuttling the work teams and supplies between the rig and the Kelso/De Hong accommodation & support vessels, and assisting with the scrapping/weight reduction operations.5th January : Titan have arranged to charter MV Edinburgh to bring urgently needed supplies, bringing forward the planned trip from 18th to 12th January, to arrive on Tristan c. 18th January.Thursday 11th January : Progress report from Mike Hentley
Salvage operations are going well, with some 300 tons of scrap metal already removed to reduce weight and assist flotation of the rig structure. The divers may have to resort to drilling – or even blasting – a way through the reef on which the rig is stranded in order to float it out to sea.
There have been unforeseen delays as the salvage team encounter and work around problems not anticipated during the original brief survey visit in October. It is understood that the Titan team are now looking at the spring tides on or around 18 February as a suitable time to attempt the re floating and towing, and that they are rearranging their work programme accordingly.
and from a special correspondent ….
trisrtandc.com has also learnt that the rig will be towed some 12 miles from the island to finally consign the rusting hulk to the deep, provided the 6357 tonne platform can be shifted (despite listing and crumpling of its legs as it has been driven ashore) and floated off.
Hopefully the spring tides on 18th February will also be accompanied by light winds, rare on Tristan, but more likely at this time of year. Friday 18th January
MV Edinburgh arrived in Trypot Bay and delivered important materials and additional fuel to the tug De Hong in support of the salvage operation. Half-Time Break?
Report from Mike Hentley on 23rd January
With preparation work to refloat the oil rig stranded at Trypot Bay about 50% complete, the salvage tug De Hong came up to Edinburgh Settlement on 23 January to top up water supplies, and the Kelso (on charter as support vessel) joined her later in the day so that the salvage team could stretch their legs and spend some hours ashore. The beginning of the end?
Could this be the start of the final countdown for the salvage operation? Although it could take another 3 weeks yet, this formal 7 days notice below sent from the salvors Titan on 29th January enables the salvage team to take advantage of any favourable weather and sea conditions occurring after that to attempt to refloat the rig.‘…Titan may attempt to refloat the A TURTLE in approximately 7 days. The actually refloating date will be determined on the success of the salvage team in the coming weeks, as well as the weather conditions’. News from Mike Hentley received 30th January 2007 A Turtle has now been stranded on the Trypot Reef since early June …
storm damage makes a re-float more difficult, but the Tristan community
hope that Titan Maritime live up to its name, remove the oil rig from Tristan’s South-East shore
and leave Trypot Bay’s Rockhopper Penguin colony in peace!

Frequently Asked Questions about the Oil Rig stranded at Trypot Bay
Q. What is the situation regarding the oil rig stranded on the British island of Tristan da Cunha?
A. On 7th June 2006 an oil rig beached at a remote bay on the island of Tristan da Cunha. The rig had been decommissioned in Brazil and was being towed to Singapore. It was released from tow in heavy seas to prevent the loss of both the rig and tug.
Q. What is the environmental impact of the rig?
A. Regular environmental inspections will be carried out to determine whether there will be any detrimental environmental impact to Tristan’s flora and fauna from the rig, and whether any invasive species have been introduced to Tristan waters.
Q How did the rig come to rest on the coast of Tristan da Cunha?
A. We believe that prevailing currents carried the rig to Tristan da Cunha. It had been adrift for several weeks before being sighted.
Q. When was the UK Government first made aware of the rig?
A. The Owner’s agents contacted the FCO on 13 June 2006, saying that the rig had beached on Tristan da Cunha.
Q. What do the UK Government and the rig’s owners propose doing with the rig now?
A. A permit has been issued by the Governor of St Helena, to the owners of the rig, granting permission for the rig to be removed from Trypot Bay and setting out the conditions for that removal. This decision has been taken following advice from a number of environmental and other experts to ensure the unique environment of Tristan da Cunha is protected.
Q. Why hasn’t it been moved before now?
A. Extreme weather conditions have made it impossible to re-float the rig before now.
Q. Is it guaranteed that the rig can be moved?
A. The rig owners, through their agents, are carrying out a structural survey to see whether it is still sufficiently robust to be moved without breaking up.
Q. What will happen to the rig?
A. Experts advise that the rig may not be in a sufficiently sound state to be towed any great distance. The possibility is therefore being examined of scuttling just within Tristan waters and away from the fishing grounds, subject to an environmental survey.
Q. Does the rig contain any pollutants?
A. The rig was decommissioned prior to leaving Brazil. It is possible that small traces of pollutants remain but this cannot be clarified until the environmental survey is complete.
Q. When can we expect the rig to be removed from the beach at Trypot Bay?
A. Before the end of the year.
Q. Is the rig a danger to navigation?
A. No. The Tristan group of islands is one of the remotest places on earth and well away from all the major shipping lanes.
Q. Who will bear the costs of the rig’s removal and make good any cost to the Islanders for possible damage to their Island’s environment?
A. The issue of cost is being discussed with the Owner’s agents and the rig insurers.
Q. Who are the oilrig’s owners?
A. The owners are TMT Co. Ltd. They are represented in London by Charles Taylor Consulting Services Limited.
. What is the latest position?
A. A contract for the salvage of the oil rig was awarded to Titan Maritime of Fort Lauderdale, USA on 6th December. Their team of salvage workers will sail from Cape Town in two parties and will arrive over the Christmas period. Their aim will be to carry out the work as quickly as possible. A contract for an environmental inspection will be signed shortly. | <urn:uuid:09b23b33-a99c-42bd-8a13-092a17f8c145> | CC-MAIN-2017-26 | https://erikclaire.wordpress.com/2007/02/06/the-continuing-saga-of-the-oil-rig/ | 2017-06-28T15:45:46Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-26/segments/1498128323711.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20170628153051-20170628173051-00508.warc.gz | en | 0.960195 | 6,270 |
09 Mar What Is SEO Ranking?
Consider your website as a living, breathing entity existing on the internet, which needs constant updates to keep it alive. An updated website allows you to interact with your visitors, more often, hence developing relationships with your customers as well as gaining powerful rankings on the search engines.
Search engine optimization or SEO is basically the process through which the visibility of a website or a web page in a web search engine’s unpaid results is affected — often referred to as “natural, or “earned” results. In general, the earlier (or higher ranked on the search results page), and more frequently a site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine’s users, and these visitors can be converted into customers.
Importance of fresh Content:
Businesses, especially small ones, are heavily increasing in numbers within Singapore, which is why if you are a new business which wants to develop in to a large firm, you would need a lot of fresh content and updates on your website in a way which is engaging and catches attention of a higher rate of people. Updating your website not only includes uploading articles, images, competitions, polls, or videos (related to your brand/service) on the website but also paying attention to the web design and updating it every now and then to add in new features which catch the attention of more people.
The secret sauce to ranking number 1 on Google’s Singapore rankings is to pay more attention the keywords you’re using and most importantly, since you’re a new business trying to fly, you need to keep it localized for a while and don’t try to compete with millions of websites around the world. Also, by keeping it local, you might as well gain more website traffic because Google’s Pigeon update gives priority to local results if it feels that the visitor’s query is related to local businesses.
Influence of fresh content on SEO ranking:
- Fresh content allows you to keep your audience informed and updated, which means that through this you’ll be able to keep your current customers subscribed and pave way for the entry of new customers as well. This audience engagement allows you to develop long-term loyalty in your customers, which then translates into returning traffic which adds a lot of value to your website puts you in good standings within Google’s rankings.
- Many businesses strive hard to become the industry authority in the eyes of Google but aren’t really aware of how to do so. The perfect strategy for this is to follow the main SEO adage- “content is king”. You need to make your content engaging, exciting, and most importantly, maintain the quality of your content. The more informative and valuable your content is the greater authority potential and rankings your website will attain.
- More content means more opportunities for your site to contain more keywords. Since keywords rank high on the algorithm chart for search indexing and ranking, you should focus on adding in a lot of keywords but do remember that it isn’t just about cramming in as many keywords as you can because Google looks at top quality content when it comes to indexing a site. | <urn:uuid:fe775a29-9c7c-4999-a23e-4101f8c8bd16> | CC-MAIN-2020-10 | https://www.iluma.com.sg/what-is-seo-ranking/ | 2020-02-21T08:26:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-10/segments/1581875145500.90/warc/CC-MAIN-20200221080411-20200221110411-00274.warc.gz | en | 0.946736 | 666 |

” There are many challenges and opportunities in designing, developing and maintaining services for participatory modes of governance, not to mention their co-creation and peer-to-peer aspects. We ask what can be learned from current research, and what is happening already beyond academia? With the aim to increase the opportunities for dialogue between the Finnish scene and the international context, we gather this collection of articles that deal broadly with the relationships between peer-to-peer dynamics, and public services. Most of the cases presented are illustrative of recent developments and discussions in Finnish society, however, also included are broader international perspectives, giving historical reflection and future-oriented speculation on what might be the outcomes.” | <urn:uuid:a7a6bd1b-e61a-4dd2-9141-c8f754014c4f> | CC-MAIN-2016-22 | https://snuproject.wordpress.com/2012/06/03/book-releasetowards-peer-production-in-public-services-cases-from-finland/ | 2016-05-25T09:04:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-22/segments/1464049274324.89/warc/CC-MAIN-20160524002114-00134-ip-10-185-217-139.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.957992 | 437 |
