A recent National Science Foundation Distinguished Lecture series featured Michael Goodchild, a world-renowned geographer and director of the University of California, Santa Barbara’s Center for Spatial Studies. On November 17, Prof. Goodchild presented his evolving views on the development and distribution of geographic information, and how these are being significantly influenced not only by new technologies, but, in particular, by the volunteer efforts of interested non-professionals connected in with the new technologies.
Below is my take on Prof. Goodchild’s talk.
For the past five hundred years there has been a distinction between the professional experts who generate and distribute “official” or authoritative geographic information, and the amateur consumer of said geographic information. Maps, for example, were developed by professional “explorers” and distributed, often at high costs still today, by governments and other official organizations. Before this current era, however, the broader community was involved in communicating the details of the local and regional geographies. It seems, however, that with the advent of new social and connecting technologies, we are once again returning to these by-gone days of community mapping.
Prof. Goodchild discusses his more recent studies into how social networks and crowdsourcing activities by volunteers from around the world are successfully creating useful and new geographic information that rivals, if not routinely excels, what is generated by authoritative sources. What can be accomplished by a social network of individuals in terms of identifying geographic structures and other elements over broad distances or even over real-time scales cannot be reasonably completed by a lone researcher or by automated computers. This crowdsourcing efficiency from scale is one of the powers of citizen science and is why volunteers are beginning to be recognized and utilized by professional communities to help advance scientific work.
For example, with geotagging features on Flickr, valuable image data of geographic structures can be visualized into a comprehensive review of a region that may also contain direct textual accounts written by the volunteer photographer. Wikimapia is another example of a growing crowdsourced map that overlays detailed location information and stories onto the latest Google map. Volunteers zoom around the map and draw location outlines to identify the specific geographic content, and include additional information, stories, and photographs. With the extreme accessibility of geographic information, the role of the geographer is evolving into less of an analyzer of information and more of a synthesizer of geographic details from many sources.
A key issue arises during the synthesizing of volunteered information through the verification of its accuracy against authoritative information. False details will always be a prevalent feature of volunteered sources, but dealing with this feature is not necessarily an unreasonable task. Typically, just as content is being provided by the crowdsourced masses, so to will the filtering for accuracy be accomplished by the crowdsourced masses. And, the more popular a bit of volunteered information is, the more eyes will be reviewing the submitted data and chances of corrections as needed significantly increase.
In particular, Prof. Goodchild is trying to understand how useful crowdsourced geographical information is during emergency management issues, such as wild fires infiltrating residential areas in Santa Barbara, or damage reports post-earthquake in Haiti. With specific experiences of wild fires in California over the past several years, it was found that volunteered information about location and direction of raging fires were provided with near real-time resolution compared to crashed servers and severely delayed reports from “official” sources. Although the volunteered information contained false positives of wild fire location, and corrections may or may not have occurred on the short time frame, it is certainly better to think the fire is near your back door and make a decision to evacuate than otherwise.
Watch Prof. Goodchild’s 50-minute lecture and learn more about how the average, non-professional citizen is changing the field of geography. And, with the technology at your fingertips, you might be able to find ways to participate in useful geographic information development in your region of the world.

I never, ever thought I would write that headline. But I just did. The University of Michigan has signed an eight-year deal, worth a $7.5 million a year with the three stripers.
Nike bowing out of the game is either an indication that Nike doesn’t think Michigan is what it once was--although football has had three 10+ win seasons in five years, the basketball team hasn’t made it to the title game in 14 years and hasn’t even made the NCAA Tournament in nine years. Or it’s further confirmation that adidas is very serious about making strides in the U.S. They of course bought Reebok--and as of now, we’ll call that alliance a work in progress--and then they took over the NBA apparel deal.
Before Michigan signed a $1 million a year deal with Nike in 1994, school deals really didn’t exist. Michigan’s football and basketball teams were wearing Russell gear and Nike shoes (since the early 80s), but the shoe and apparel companies didn’t really see much value on the licensing/merchandising side. Instead, these companies would directly pay the coach for a deal.
Logos on jerseys also didn’t exist. Many people forget might forget that the “Fab Five,” which played their last games at Michigan in 1993 didn’t have any logos on their ridiculously long shorts. Michigan merchandise was the fourth best selling from January to March 2007, among all the colleges represented by the Collegiate Licensing Company. Royalties earned by Michigan were only trumped by the University of Texas, Notre Dame and the University of Florida.
A note to Michigan, only one adidas school has ever won the BCS National Championship (Tennessee in 1998). And, at least according to my research, no adidas school - for as long as logos have appeared on college apparel -- has ever won the NCAA men’s basketball tournament.
Here is how the Michigan deal sizes up with some other schools:
|ND||Adidas||10 yr.||$60 M|
|Michigan||Adidas||8 yr.||$60 M|
|UNC||Nike||8 yr.||$28.34 M|
|Kansas||Adidas||8 yr.||$26.67 M|
|Auburn||Under Armour||5 yr.||$10.5 M|
|Va. Tech||Nike||8 yr.||$ 9.7 M|

Steve Hochstadt: TThe shifts away from conservative positions on gay and interracial marriage and immigration signal the decline in the attractiveness of major elements in traditional Republican ideology.
Tina Dupuy: Mr. Bush announced he had to cancel his first trip to Europe since he published his memoir and admitted to authorizing waterboarding. There were calls for large protests and threats of investigations, so Mr. Bush opted (as always) to stay in Texas. So, we ignore him. The GOP doesn’t mention him. And the rest of the world wants to lob a giant shoe at him. To make this all worse, the only person who seems to be toeing the line for Bush is…Barack Obama. | <urn:uuid:4b3fa469-040a-45a4-bbb1-b02d836d31e7> | CC-MAIN-2014-42 | http://www.laprogressive.com/tag/illinois-republican-party/ | 2014-10-30T15:15:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-42/segments/1414637898226.7/warc/CC-MAIN-20141030025818-00142-ip-10-16-133-185.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.976056 | 145 |

After J.C. Penney cut 350 employees from its headquarters Tuesday, retail analysts said they are unsure how the company can continue to follow through with its transformation strategy. One analyst even said it was time for CEO Ron Johnson to leave, the Dallas Business Journal reports.
“The next step is the CEO has to go, I guess,” said Howard Davidowitz, chairman of New York-based Davidowitz & Associates, a retail consulting and investment-banking firm. “Because if it stays like this, the question will be, ‘What credibility does he have to do anything?’ He will have lost all credibility.”
Davidowitz has previously made his position on the J.C. Penney transformation clear, saying Johnson “caused incalculable damage” to the department store chain.
Other retail experts expressed more optimism about J.C. Penney’s plans, even as they said they were uncertain about the company’s turnaround.

Penney has 10 stores in Central Florida. | <urn:uuid:5a49f162-e577-409d-b4a8-a48d5719c1af> | CC-MAIN-2018-22 | https://www.bizjournals.com/orlando/morning_call/2012/07/jc-penney-analyst-ceo-has-to-go.html | 2018-05-20T14:36:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-22/segments/1526794863570.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20180520131723-20180520151723-00569.warc.gz | en | 0.970359 | 220 |

The beginning of July will be the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg. During the entire period, people have been playing the "what if" game, guessing what would have happened if this or that had happened differently at the battle. This may be a relatively benign pastime, but it is ultimately futile. We can't know what the alternate course of history would have been.
We can't know what would have happened if what did happen hadn't happened.
fall of Vicksburg and the loss at Gettysburg, the defeat of the Confederacy seemed to be inevitable. As far as I can see, the generals on each side, already tested in battle, did their best to assure that their sides would win the battle, but in the fog of battle unforeseen events intervened and their best laid plans went awry.
For us lesser mortals, it is well to remember that our forecasts are likely to be wrong, our plans to fail. At least we should have a plan B, and probably a C and D. It may also be better not to bet the house on any one prediction. | <urn:uuid:9cf29085-5e28-4ea8-abc6-b9e031081141> | CC-MAIN-2014-41 | http://stconsultant.blogspot.com/2013/06/thinking-about-what-might-have-been-and.html | 2014-09-23T18:21:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-41/segments/1410657139395.59/warc/CC-MAIN-20140914011219-00335-ip-10-234-18-248.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.987666 | 223 |
This city is flooded with blueberry muffins. Plain ones, sugar-dusted numbers, big ones, itty bitty ones, and others still, paired with everything from bran to corn. We loved some, hated others, and passed on a few. Our conclusion? There's one we can honestly call "the best" and many others which are simply great and worth a detour. In the end, blueberry muffins, like most sweets, are totally subjective. Taste is personalized, so we've made sure to included seriously delicious muffins on all ends of the spectrum.
Where to begin? See the list after the jump for our picks for the city's finest blueberry muffins.
The Best of the Best
We've tasted high and low, so let's begin with what is undoubtedly the best blueberry muffin in the city. Say hello to Locanda Verde's blueberry-polenta muffin. This is a gorgeous number, and I am head-over-heels obsessed with the pairing of blueberry and polenta in a plush, sweet muffin. The surface is lightly dotted with sugar crystals, the blueberries are aplenty, and the polenta brings about this moist, near nutty crunch. It is insane. Size-wise, it was one of the smaller, and it was also the most expensive ($3.75) muffin. But aside from that, what is there not to love? 377 Greenwich Street, New York NY 10013 (b/n North Moore Street and Franklin Street; map); 212-925-3797; greenwichhotelny.com
Best with a Crumb Topping
The blueberry muffin at Trois Pommes Patisserie ($2.50) in Park Slope is baked in a tin cup, and outfitted in a cinnamon-sugar crumb topping. Super tender with a fine crumb, and containing more than just a handful blueberries, this is a classic you could easily start with for breakfast everyday of the week. 260 Fifth Avenue, Brooklyn NY 11215 (b/n Carroll Street and Garfield Street; map); 718-230-3119; troispommespatisserie.com
Best with a Sugar-Dusted Topping
We're suckers for sugar-dusted tops, especially for the one found at Blue Sky Bakery ($1.95), bearing a tall, crackly, golden dome. Plenty of blueberries had clearly exploded in the baking process, streaking the innards an attractive hue. This muffin was less sweet that most others included in our list—if that's a big plus for you, mark this down. 53 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11217 (b/n Bergen Street and St. Mark's Avenue; map); 718-783-4123
Best in Mini Form
At Blue Ribbon Bakery Market, mini two-bite blueberry muffins are sold in a basket for just 75¢ apiece. They're tucked away next to the cash register, alongside cinnamon-sugar muffins, the only other muffin offered at the bakery. Powdery light and simple, we detected a haunting note of cinnamon and nutmeg, a swell pairing with blueberries. 14 Bedford Street,
New York NY 10014 (near Downing Street; map); 212-647-0408; blueribbonrestaurants.com
Best Greasy in a Good Way
You how sometimes things can be greasy in a good way? Yes. Those would be the blueberry muffins from Little Miss Muffin ($2). This muffin leaves a touch more of an oily stain in the brown paper bag than its competitors, but the flavor is so genuine and satisfying—an absolutely innocent and honest muffin. 174 Park Place, Brooklyn NY 11238 (near Carlton Avenue; map); 718-857-4963
Best Usage of Corn
The blueberry-corn muffin at City Bakery ($3) is a well-known sweet and justly so. The wide and flat topped muffin is surely a unique one with its super crunchy exterior and dense, cornmeal and blueberry outfitted. If this blueberry-corn combo is your sort of thing, head to Sarabeth's ($2.25) for a mini version that's more akin to blueberry-studded cornbread, as opposed to corn-studded blueberry muffin. There's a big difference between the two. City Bakery: 3 W 18th Street, New York NY 10011; 212-366-1414; thecitybakery.com. Sarabeth's: Chelsea Market, 75 9th Avenue, New York NY 10011 (at 15th Street; map); 212-989-2424; other locations at sarabeth.com
Best Usage of Bran
At The Grey Dog's Coffee ($2.70), the blueberry-bran muffins are huge, dense and very satisfying in that whole oat-y manner. There were fewer berries than we would have liked given the size of the muffin, but this was a hearty, muffin-can-make-a-meal find. 90 University Place, New York NY 10003 (near 12th Street; map); 212-414-4739; thegreydog.com; also in the West Village.
Best Asian Influence
Over at The Adore, a Japanese bakery/restaurant/tea house, the muffin is of an eggy sort with blueberries not mixed in the batter, but rather dotted across the top surface. This is perhaps as far as one can deviate from a traditional classic blueberry muffin, for it is but a touch sweet and reminiscent of Chinese sponge cake, only with a bit more body. 17 East 13th Street; New York NY 10003( b/n University Place and 5th Avenue; map); 212-243-8742
Best Straightforward Blueberry
The classic all-American muffin sits right in the bakery section at Friend of a Farmer's ($2.70) right off Union Square. Come in the morning around 9 a.m. and you might be lucky enough to find them still sitting in the muffin pans with steam billowing out the tops, waiting to cool down. These are straightforward muffins, no corn or polenta combo, no sugar-speckled top. Just a blueberry muffin some might call too sweet, and others, just dandy. 77 Irving Place, New York NY 10003 (at 19th Street; map); 212-477-2188; friendofafarmernyc.com
A similar muffin, though with a slightly tougher exterior but more blueberries can be found at Cranberry's ($1.50) in Brooklyn Heights, a gourmet food store known for their house-baked sweets. 48 Henry Street, Brooklyn NY 11201 (at Cranberry Street; map); 718-624-3500 | <urn:uuid:74d73f48-e5c8-48ad-a1d5-4c61281f7457> | CC-MAIN-2015-14 | http://newyork.seriouseats.com/2009/06/guide-to-the-best-blueberry-muffins-in-nyc-brooklyn-manhattan.html?ref=thumb | 2015-03-27T06:55:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-14/segments/1427131295619.33/warc/CC-MAIN-20150323172135-00046-ip-10-168-14-71.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.92663 | 1,444 |

In my most recent post, I shared about being in the midst of uncertainties and the good news is we received desirable news shortly after that. It was such a huge relief and we are EXTREMELY grateful.
The truth of the matter is this is just one of the many hurdles that we need to overcome. Still, I am hopeful that with the right coping skills, we will be able to surmount all the challenges.
I believe that no one is immune from such circumstance and I wish to share with you some pointers on how to keep our sanity during those moments of uncertainties. Here are eight coping strategies that have helped me tremendously.
1. Stay in the present
Worries and anxieties are always present when the future is unknown. Our thoughts often get ahead of us and we imagine thousand and one negative scenarios and that further increase our worries and anxieties. The most effective way to deal with this demon is to remain the in the present and avoid jumping to conclusion prematurely.
Undeniably, this takes great discipline and the willingness to let go of the obsessive thoughts. Keep repeating to self that the future is not here.
Remind self that I do not know what the outcome is and there is no point in torturing myself by imagining the worst. All that I have is the present moment and I need to cherish it.
This quote rings true: “Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow, it empties today of its strength.”
2. Enhance your sense of self-efficacy
What this means is to recall your past struggles and how you have managed to overcome them. One of the most important lessons that I have learned from my illness is that human being is resilient, much more than we can ever imagine. Realise that you have the capacity to deal with the future because you have the knowledge, skills and resources within you. You only have to dig deep.
How can you be certain of this? Refer to your track record, namely your past triumphs. Self-efficacy enables us to have confidence and strength in dealing with known and unknown challenges.
When things are beyond our control, it is important to recognize them as moments of suffering and extend self-compassion. Feeling helpless is a difficult emotion. It is painful and it makes one feel diminished and useless. We feel vulnerable and lost. Bestow patience and kindness instead of judgment during this time and it will help one to cope better.
I found a very useful mantra from the book, Self-Compassion by Dr Kristin Neff. It goes like this:
This is a moment of suffering
Suffering is part of life
May I be kind to myself in this moment
May I give myself what I need
Meditating on this mantra allows me to remember that I am not alone in my suffering because everyone suffers and it is part of life. This awareness connects me to others who suffer and brings about a sense of universality. Very often we feel isolated and disconnected because we feel as though we are the only one who suffers, which is far from the truth.
The mantra also reminds me to give myself what I need in moment of suffering. If what I needed is a good cry, that's what I should do. If I needed a helping hand, I must have the courage to be vulnerable and ask for it.
4. Reach out and get support
This coping strategy has saved me time and again. I am also immensely grateful that I have found my tribe whom I know will be there for me at a moment's notice. Because I believe in the power of prayer, I often activate my prayer warriors to pray for us when we go through trials in life. Their support and prayer give me tremendous comfort and strength to keep going.
I firmly believe that I have not collapsed under all the anxiety and pressures because I know there are many who are praying for us. I count on their faith when mine is weak.
Many people choose to withdraw and isolate themselves when bad things happen. It is understandable because it's extremely hard to be vulnerable and weak. Yet, this is where the danger lies. The more isolated you are, the more likely your negative thoughts supersede the rational ones. Seek a confidante whom you can trust and open up. Bottling up is never a good solution.
5. Strengthen the connection with your spouse/loved ones
Crisis occasionally drives a wedge between couples but it need not be so. You can turn it into a great moment of connection. It is crucial to strengthen the connection and allow the other to know that you are there for him or her. Even when you do not agree on how to deal with the situation, be sure to show your respect and willingness to listen to his or her point of views.
Create an environment that is safe to share your deepest feelings and thoughts. Be generous and show compassion. As much as you can, support each other to the best of your ability and journey together in overcoming the obstacles.
6. Keep your routine
It is very tempting to give up your routine and just spend the time moping and being miserable. Based on my experience this is not only ineffective but a waste of time.
If the waiting period is long, make use of the time to do pleasurable activities. For example, we arranged to meet up with a group of friends for dinner and had such a lovely time that we momentarily forgot about the anxiety. Distraction is an effective tool, which is not only helpful in working with young children but adults too.
7. Count your blessings
I am a firm believer in the power of gratitude and positivity. When crisis presents itself, it is very easy to lose sight of what is going well in our lives. We still have each other and our friends, a roof over our head, good health and numerous blessings. Writing my gratitude list helps me see the bigger picture and fortifies my faith that things are going to be okay no matter what happens. It generates hope and optimism that help one to stay afloat.
The Serenity Prayer continues to be instrumental especially when I am dealing with uncertainties. It enables me to see what are the situations that are within my control and what actions I can take. At the same time, it reminds me that there are things that are beyond my control and I need to learn to trust and surrender.
I hope you will give some considerations to these strategies and give them a shot. You will only know if it is effective when you try it.

This is the true story of two people and lots of injectable medication picked to share a few weeks together and have their lives blogged about to find out what happens when people get tired of getting shot in the ass and start getting pregnant.
I am a
soon-to-be 35-year-old woman using heavy duty fertility drugs for the first time who has, unfortunately, joined the ranks of those who have failed an IVF cycle. Outside of doping (I still have some HGH in the fridge), I’m an active gal who loves to compete. I’ve run a few marathons, completed in an ironman back in 2008, jumped on the crossfit train, and completed my first ultra-marathon in November as a little f-you to fertility. I am a teacher and a dog owner and the wife to the best man in all the land!
Procedures you know and love
Clomid: who doesn’t love a bloated belly?
IUI: No dice. But fun to play the game.
IVF #1: Four follicles. Three eggs. Two embyros. One transfer. Zero babies. Poop.
Why we can’t get pregnant
It’s him. It’s me. It’s him. It’s me. It’s me: low antral follicle count. AMH = .91. “Ovaries of a 40-year-old,” said the doctor. Not 40-year-olds I know, bitch!
Have I always been this sassy?
Yes. Think of me like Bridget Jones struggling with infertility. If I can’t laugh at it all and myself, what’s the point? | <urn:uuid:e27b918d-6b57-4c3d-8eb5-5a0865751c52> | CC-MAIN-2017-39 | https://dopingforbaby.wordpress.com/about/ | 2017-09-26T14:22:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-39/segments/1505818696182.97/warc/CC-MAIN-20170926141625-20170926161625-00161.warc.gz | en | 0.94879 | 373 |
Aggregate Recycling Corporation
Aggregate Recycling Corporation is an independent, family-owned business founded in 1987.
ARC is a multi-faceted environmental services company. It originated recycling non-hazardous petroleum-impacted soils. In 2002, a separate adjacent recycling facility opened which processes construction & demolition debris, woodwastes, asphalt shingles, concrete/brick/ledge and scrap green waste (brush, stumps, raw bark). In 2013, ARC opened an 11,664 S.F. enclosed transfer station. This facility accepts both MSW (Municipal Solid Waste) and single-sort recycling from commercial and municipal accounts.
In 2011, a stand-alone waste hauling, transfer and container service company, Shipyard Waste Solutions, was established based at the ARC facilities.
A raw bark processing, storage and transfer facility for wholesale all-natural bark mulch products is licensed and serving that marketplace in 2014.
ARC's recycling facilities are conveniently located minutes from interstate 95 at the Maine/New Hampshire border. We recognize that time is money. We will have you on your way quickly. On-site truck scales provide certified weights for all incoming materials and outgoing products. We strive to provide personal service, timeliness and cost competitiveness. In summary, performance without surprises. | <urn:uuid:afe8080d-a1a6-4ef8-98e7-dc2b499e82ee> | CC-MAIN-2017-17 | https://www.aggregaterecycling.com/ | 2017-04-30T03:04:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-17/segments/1492917124297.82/warc/CC-MAIN-20170423031204-00130-ip-10-145-167-34.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.929191 | 270 |
Great artists dying before their time is not new to rock music. But there have been few whose brief career has been such a mystery as Jeff Buckley’s—certainly not in recent history. Maybe the recent release of Elliott Smith’s posthumous From a Basement on the Hill will catapult him into the realm of the departed famous. But for now, it is the anti-hero Jeff Buckley who bears the full weight of having his career and its unrealized potential debated by the bored critic everywhere.
To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the release of his debut album Grace, Columbia Records released a three-disc set, including the original album, 12 outtakes, and a DVD that includes a documentary on the making of Grace and five videos.
The DVD is certainly interesting, and provides a nice look into the world that Andy Wallace and Jeff Buckley created at Bearsville Studios. Andy Wallace speaks about the recording process with more depth than most producers. It enables a closer look into Jeff Buckley’s personality and provides some insight into the dynamic psyche that Buckley used to give birth to the now gigantic songs. Watching the Jeff Buckley interviews are interesting but at the same time disquieting. The entire documentary and all five videos seem permeated by the specter of Jeff Buckley.
It is not, however, the DVD that raises the most questions about Jeff Buckley’s career, but rather the one new track on the disc of outtakes, the bluesy, soulful “Forget Her.” The song was ultimately scrapped at the last minute for the ethereal “So Real”. That “Forget Her” has eluded release for as long as it has is surprising. It fully embodies, the feel of Grace, and would have sat nicely on the album. Jeff Buckley’s voice and guitar is powerful and heartfelt. Listening to it (over and over) begs the question, “Why did he decide not to release it as part of the album?” In the stunningly packaged liner notes, Mary Guibert, offers the lucid explanation: “It was for personal reasons that Jeff had removed it from the album.” And herein lies the mystery that will always surround Jeff Buckley.
“Forget Her” casts more shadows on his career than has already surrounded it. While it sounds at home on Grace, it seems to fit just as well in the body of songs he had begun work for what may or may not have been Sketches for My Sweetheart the Drunk. So, what was it going to be? Were we going to see a commercial follow up to Grace? Was it going to be the dark and gnarled guitar of “Nightmares By the Sea”? It is likely the only answer given (if one were given it all) would be, “Jeff didn’t discuss it for personal reasons.” Often this comment can be interpreted to mean the artist is cracking up or battling with drugs. With the mercurial Jeff Buckley it means only that he wasn’t telling because he was likely going to change his mind.
The shroud over his career is also a result of such a limited body of work. Jeff Buckley was not a prolific songwriter like many of his idols. Or, if he was, he wasn’t telling anyone. It is unfortunate, not because fans jealously hang on every note he sings, but because the Legacy Edition is limited in its ability to truly capture his fragile genius.
Also contained here are stirring renditions of “Lost Highway” by Bob Dylan and Nina Simone’s “The Other Woman”. More impressive is the soulful track “I Want Someone Badly”, which Buckley performs with the band, Shudder to Think. The cut finds him in ‘60s R&B territory, and his voice doesn’t disappoint.
Some of the tracks contained on the Legacy Edition are culled from previous compilations and EPs; so many buyers will already have them. However, the intimate lost track “Forget Her” and the documentary are worth the purchase alone. Jeff Buckley brought a depth to his music and the world he lived in that is uncommon, to say the least. Colombia has sought to capture it, and does a reasonably good job, even if they fail to shed any new light on the enigma of Jeff Buckley’s legacy. | <urn:uuid:1c884a50-abdd-4a29-919d-1ac43ea5415b> | CC-MAIN-2015-22 | http://www.popmatters.com/review/buckleyjeff-gracelegacy/ | 2015-05-29T13:33:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-22/segments/1432207930109.71/warc/CC-MAIN-20150521113210-00076-ip-10-180-206-219.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.977457 | 921 |

A bit of a strange collaboration for you today.... though a collaboration none the less and with the incentive of free nail polish!
Models Own and Ford Retail have partnered up for 'Glam It Up A Gear'. Creating three unique limited edition shades to match the new Ford Fiesta.
So how do you get your hands of the 3 Models Own shades? Well throughout September you can register your details on the Glam It Up A Gear website and then head to your nearest Ford Retail Dealership for a free test drive of the new Ford Fiesta. Once you are done the trio of nail polishes will be sent off to you.
I personally don't see the relation of a car with nail polishes.... but if you are after a new car it's a nice added extra and if you just want to get your hands on the nail polishes then it's not too much hard work... granted you are the right age and can drive!
The three shades from left to right are - Hot Magenta, Fashionista and Candy Blue.
Hot Magenta has to be my favourite as it's ideal for autumn/winter. This is a lovely Oxblood shade with a subtle pink tone to it and looks super glossy on the nails. Next up is Fashionista which I would describe as an 'old gold' shade, a dull metallic shade that does take 3 coats but is a lovely autumn shade and would make a great base for glitter top coats. Lastly we have Candy Blue, which is darker than the swatch above and contains micro shimmer to it. Not my favourite but still nice.
It is a shame that these shades aren't available though any other channels but if you fancy a test drive of the new Ford Fiesta then you can fill in your details and find your nearest Ford Dealership here.

Kyrgyzstan has agreed to allow Russia to create a unified military base in the country, combining all of the various facilities that the Russian armed forces now operate there. This is something that Russia has been seeking for some time -- two years ago they proposed paying for such an arrangement in weapons. (So, one wonders if this new announcement is connected to the recent agreement to supply Kyrgyzstan with over a billion dollars in weaponry.) The agreement was reached in September, though just formally signed (and announced) by President Almazbek Atambayev this week and will go into effect in 2017, reports RIA Novosti:
It will include the four military facilities Russia has in Kyrgyzstan at present.
The agreement was signed for a term of 15 years with an option to extend for five years.
Russia has a weapon test range in Karakol, a signals center in Kara-Balt, a radio-seismic laboratory in Mayly-Suu and a Collective Security Treaty Organization airbase in Kant.
So why was this sort of bureaucratic reorganization so important to Russia? It will make it harder for Kyrgyzstan to kick out any of the particular facilities, notes Vasily Kashin, an analyst at the Moscow defense think tank Center for Analysis of Strategies and Technologies. He tells The Bug Pit:
The four original Russian military facilities in the Kyrgyz republic were functioning according to different agreements and had different statuses (Kant was in fact a Collective Security Treaty Organization base, not simply a Russian military base and originally some multilateral activities were planned there, on other facilities there were different agreements, some quite outdated). Such a situation made the Russian facilities politically vulnerable, giving the Kyrgyz side much space for various claims (in Kyrgyz situation that would be easy to start any kind of litigation against the Russian side). Currently all these facilities are belonging to one legal entity (the integrated military base) and the Russian interests are very well protected from any possible political developments in Kyrgyzstan. | <urn:uuid:60d1920d-2ad8-4fab-ada7-25ccf4a22773> | CC-MAIN-2016-22 | http://www.eurasianet.org/print/66323 | 2016-06-01T01:48:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-22/segments/1464053379198.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20160524012939-00114-ip-10-185-217-139.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.966717 | 416 |
I am finishing off my first year of nursing and have been searching for months for information on summer work programs and opportunities for nursing students in hospitals here in Canada. Although I have found dozens of opportunities for employment for nursing students in the states, I have found nothing at all for anything in Canada. I have tried to contact hospitals all over the country and those that responded said that they cant help me. I am really upset at the fact that all the skills I learned this year will be wasted if not forgotten over the summer due to lack of opportunities.
If their are any canadian students out there who know of any work programs in hospitals for nursing students please let me know!!!!!!

I'm a Canadian RN currently working the US,however I did complete all of my education in Candada....I hate to tell you but there are almost no jobs in Canada for newer RN 's let alone student nurses (Hospital positions anyway), I know of no hospital programs for student nurses...don't fret though because home health agencies WILL hire a student after they have completed 6 months of Nursing school and this does look great on a resume come graduation time. Call Olsten Health Services (just look in the Yellow pages under Nurses) I worked for them my entire time in Nursing School. Good Luck!

The Science Behind the Aging Process and Potential Interventions to Slow it Down
The aging process is a complex and multi-faceted phenomenon that is not fully understood. However, scientists have identified several key mechanisms that contribute to aging, including:
Telomere shortening: Telomeres are the protective caps on the ends of chromosomes that shorten as cells divide, eventually leading to cell death.
DNA damage: Over time, DNA accumulates damage from a variety of sources, such as exposure to toxins and radiation, which can lead to mutations and cancer.
Inflammation: Chronic inflammation is thought to contribute to the aging process by damaging cells and tissues.
Free radical damage: Free radicals are molecules with unpaired electrons that can damage cells and contribute to aging.
Hormone imbalance: Declining levels of hormones such as testosterone and estrogen can contribute to aging.
There are a number of potential interventions that may slow down the aging process, including:
Caloric restriction: Studies have shown that reducing calorie intake by 30-40% can extend the lifespan of certain animals, possibly by reducing oxidative stress and inflammation.
Exercise: Regular physical activity has been shown to improve health and extend lifespan in animals.
Antioxidants: Antioxidants such as vitamin C and E can neutralize free radicals and reduce cellular damage.
Telomerase activators: Telomerase is an enzyme that can lengthen telomeres, potentially slowing down the aging process.
Sirtuins activators: Sirtuins are a class of enzymes that play a role in regulating cellular metabolism, and activating them may also slow down aging.
It’s worth noting that many of these interventions are still under research and not all of them have been proven to be effective. | <urn:uuid:90db34bb-75c0-4fa9-a975-4338d2c76d6e> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://aeternum.site/the-science-behind-the-aging-process-and-potential-interventions-to-slow-it-down/ | 2023-09-24T21:20:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506669.30/warc/CC-MAIN-20230924191454-20230924221454-00365.warc.gz | en | 0.943143 | 362 |

NTN Corporation Receives 2021 “CHO” MONODZUKURI Innovative Parts and Components Award
Mt. Prospect, IL – NTN Bearing Corporation of America, the parent company of BCA Bearings, is proud to announce NTN’s award of a 2021 “CHO” MONODZUKURI Innovative Parts and Components Award. NTN won this award for the development of High-Speed Deep Groove Ball Bearings for electric vehicle (EV) and hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) applications.
NTN’s award winning High-Speed Deep Groove Ball Bearings are designed for ultra-high-speed applications in motors and gearboxes used in EVs and HEVs. To achieve the high speed rotational capabilities required by these applications, NTN revised the materials used in the ball retainer for increased strength, and designed an improved pocket profile where the retainer and rolling elements have direct contact to minimize distortion caused by centrifugal forces. The developed products have identical package dimensions to conventional bearings, which enables them to be interchangeable. They are engineered to use grease or oil lubrication, depending on the application. In recent years, there has been an increased demand for oil lubrication, which has the advantage of cooling to compensate for heat generation, which improves efficiency.
“We are very proud of this award”, remarked Rob Barrett, Sr. Manager – Bearing Applications Engineering and Development, NTN Bearing Corporation of America, “NTN is guided by our corporate philosophy of contributing to international society by developing new technologies and products, and these High-Speed Deep Groove Ball Bearings for EVs and HEVs, embody that philosophy by advancing the future of mobility.”
To develop these products, NTN relied on years of research and technology to minimize frictional energy loss and optimize internal bearing specifications. The development of these products contributes to the continued growth of EV and HEV technologies by supporting high-speed rotation with a dmn value* of 1.8 million (depending on conditions). The development of these technologies contributes to the realization of a decarbonized society, which is an important component of NTN’s corporate “Nameraka” philosophy, which promotes being eco-friendly for the good of all.
The “CHO” MONODZUKURI Innovative Parts and Components Award is awarded by the MONODZUKURI Nippon Conference and Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun, Ltd, for parts and materials that make significant contributions to the development of industry and society. The awardee is selected from manufacturers of parts and materials related to machinery, electronics and automobiles in fields related to the environment, health, biotechnology, medical equipment and everyday life.
* dmn value: An indicator that expresses the rotational performance of bearings and is calculated by multiplying the bearing pitch circle diameter (mm) by the rotational speed (min-1).

Whether you’re migrating to an owner-operated facility, a colocation data center, or a cloud/hybrid environment, managing the risks and complications involved in a data center move is a challenge even for experienced data center professionals. Checklists and other resources to manage the tasks required for moving your data center are a good start. Data center colocation services often include assisting customers with the migration. But did you know that Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) software also can help you simplify planning and avoid many of the risks associated with migrations?
Although data center management software is often considered a tool to be implemented after the move, it provides some surprising benefits even before the hardware is installed in your new facility. Here are three little-known ways that you can use DCIM software to make planning and executing a data center move easier and less stressful:
1. Accelerate your data center asset management.
Most data center moves start with an inventory of what you have, so you’ll know what equipment needs to be moved. This typically results in an updated asset inventory for your new facility. A comprehensive DCIM solution can jumpstart your data center asset management and eliminate much of the human error associated with a manual inventory by discovering at least some of the devices on your network.
Since you will have an accurate inventory of your equipment, your assets can easily be imported into your data center management database without concerns about data quality. Keeping track of your assets in your DCIM software also saves you time once the new facility is up and running.
2. Create a virtual buildout of your new data center deployment.
Figuring out exactly where to place your equipment in your new facility is a key challenge during a data center move. You need to plan not only to check that you have the space necessary but also to ensure that you have enough power capacity as well, including resources that would be needed for a failover situation. You also need to ensure that you have the right lengths of cable to connect equipment properly without creating spiderwebs and spaghetti in your data center.
Creating a virtual buildout of your deployment ensures more accurate data center capacity planning. You can make sure that all your equipment fits before the physical migration, which saves both time and effort on hardware installation while also reducing the potential for issues to arise during the physical move. Additionally, your data center management software should graphically display floor maps, cabinet elevations, and power and network layouts so all teams involved in the migration understand how their respective areas fit together in the new facility.
3. Print out work orders for data center change management.
The physical move and hardware installation is the culmination of the planning done up to that point. However, it’s easy to botch the execution of your data center move when the migration is taking place in the middle of the night, and the move team doesn’t include the same people who planned the infrastructure. (For example, if you’re moving to a colocation data center, the physical move might be included as part of your provider’s services.) An experienced data center move team can limit the potential for errors, but additional clarity around hardware installation adds additional protection against mistakes.
Change management capabilities in DCIM software give you a single system from which to print out work orders that can be physically attached to the equipment to be moved. The work orders would include not only where the equipment is located but also the cables required to connect it. This decreases the risk of hardware being installed or connected incorrectly. Data center management software also enables you to track the status of your moves, adds, and changes accurately.
Note: If you’re not currently using data center management software or data center monitoring tools, a data center move is a great opportunity to start a DCIM project. The DCIM software can be added into the budget as part of the larger migration project, increasing its chances of being approved. (The DCIM software will be an extremely small part of a much bigger budget.)
Data center management software doesn’t have to wait until after you move your data center. Start your DCIM project before the migration so you can get the most out of your software and your new facility from Day One.

A National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report released last month shows that although men tend to drive faster and more recklessly, women are far more likely to cause an accident by stomping on the wrong pedal.
Of course, when NHTSA factored age into the study, drivers under 20 and older than 76 were much more likely than everyone else to do the same thing, but across all age groups, women were the ones yelling "oops" most often when it came time to choose between the stop and go pedals.
Almost two thirds of pedal misapplication crashes were found to be caused by women, with the figure being significant enough for whoever wrote the report to suggest either incredulity or genuine I-told-you-so excitement by italicizing the words two thirds in an other wise drily written federal study.
But NHTSA seems to have done its homework, having relied upon a variety of sources for its study — everything from technical material published between 1980 and 2009 to the 2,411 wrong pedal wrecks recorded in the North Carolina State crash database between 2004 and 2008 (apparently, Tarheels are really good crash reporters).
The study found that most of the pedal misapplication crashes — 77 percent by the news analysis standard (which was thought perhaps to have been skewed by the "newsworthiness" of reported stories) and 57 percent in North Carolina — occurred off the roadway, in parking lots, driveways and the like. Inattention was also an issue, with 44 percent of the accidents involving distracted drivers, as were health, mental issues and age.
The most infamous wrong pedal crash occurred in 2003, when an 86-year-old motorist crashed into a busy farmers market in Santa Monica, Calif., killing nine and critically injuring 14.
But the bottom line is that most of the wrong pedal crashes over the past 20 years or so were caused by women. Does that mean that men are better drivers? Maybe in parking lots.

This kid should never play basketball again and this coach should be fired!!
YYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!! Lmfao that has to be the GAYEST commercial ever! I say that every time it comes on. It literally makes me mad whenever that commercial comes on my TV.
I haven't laughed that hard in days, that commerical was supreme gay, his teammates being pissed is even funnier and when the coach says good job, I literally died laughing. So stupid.
How about you shut the hell up alex and take a seat on the bench.
wut a couple of pu$$ie$
Hey LazarusMunoz, good call.
haha yeah if i said I touched it last my coach would be pissed and tell me not to say anything
he kinda looks like chris paul
Good lord this is appalling. Just, wow.
If I said that when I was playing summer league ball in middle school, my legs would still be sore from suicides.
"I touched it, coach. I tou--"
"Now your ass is gonna touch the bench! The only two things you're gonna touch for the rest of the season is the bench with your ass and the line with your hand!"
I am all for that in the first half lol. But when the game is on the line no one would say anything! And if i would of told my coach that i touched it. Then he would of told me to shut the hell up and get my ass back out on the court! Or he would of said "Well then we will miss this shot and lose if they were suppose to get it!"
so many bad calls throughout the course of a game i have no probelm at all taking advantage of a ref making a mistake.
I get so PISSED when I see that commercial. If I played for a HS team and my teammate said that and my coach let him do that, I would transfer immediately.
Lol @ the white kid who sounds like Napoleon Dynamite.
"It's the championship game! Gosh! Freakin' idiot!"
What ever happened to sportsmanship people :P
Michael Jordan - "I pushed off... I pushed off on Bryon Russell, coach."
Scottie Pippen - "Come on, Michael! The ref did not call that!"
Ron Harper - "You gotta be kidding me, Michael!"
Steve Kerr - "It's the championship game!"
Luc Longley - "Talk to him, coach!"
Michael Jordan - "I pushed off. It's their ball."
Phil Jackson - "Try to foul Ostertag when they inbound. Bulls on three... One, two, three..."
Team - "BULLS!"
Scott Burrell - "Nice going, Michael..."
Michael Jordan - "Sorry, coach."
Phil Jackson - "Michael, Michael... Good call..."
We play that way here. Bad referee calls lead to player frustration and can end up in hard / cheap fouls.
I also find that the opposition team will "return the favour" and call one back later that we didn't get so it usually works out fair in the end.
I'd honestly hate winning a game that I didn't deserve to.
Would drive me insane.
Did anyone notice he didnt even touch it, but the other guy did?
the best part has to be that touching, inspirational music that ques when alex admits his fault | <urn:uuid:1a4a06f4-2259-497e-814c-8807cfa1d9bc> | CC-MAIN-2016-22 | http://www.nbadraft.net/forum/kid-should-never-play-basketball-again-and-coach-should-be-fired | 2016-05-27T00:29:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-22/segments/1464049276415.60/warc/CC-MAIN-20160524002116-00082-ip-10-185-217-139.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.964668 | 733 |

Hunk Drake Tyler has just turned 19 and can't wait to serve the Church of Latter Day Saints overseas on his mission, but first he seeks the approval of his bishop, Connor Maguire. Noting that a good Mormon missionary has to be ready for whatever the world gives him, Bishop Maguire orders Drake to undergo a physical exam. The bishop "fortunately" has the authority to conduct it himself, and orders Drake to strip naked. Something just doesn't seem right as Bishop Maguire starts to fondle Drake's ripped body and gropes Drake's cock. The bishop retrieves a riding crop and orders Drake on his knees; now something's definitely not right. The bishop's warm demeanor turns cruel and perverse as he crops and facefucks Drake in the name of the church. The exam continues to push Drake's physical limits as he's bound and flogged in a stress position, balancing one-legged on a stack of books. Drake takes Bishop Maguire's cock once more in his mouth and ass. The bishop moves the boy over to his desk, fucking him doggy style while zapping his tender body & tormenting the boy's shoulders with clover clamps. Bishop Maguire tears the clamps from a wailing Drake and busts a hot load onto the boy's tight ass before feeding Brother Tyler all of his cum. For the final test, Drake spreads his seed all over the Book of Mormon before cleaning every drop of cum off with his tongue. | <urn:uuid:cfd712cd-1b00-458c-b9ba-4cf36ca3f01c> | CC-MAIN-2020-24 | http://freekinkmen.com/video/Hot%20Mormon%20Jock%20Fucked%20in%20Bondage%20to%20Prove%20His%20Devotion%20to%20the%20Church/i30161/ | 2020-05-25T22:00:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-24/segments/1590347389355.2/warc/CC-MAIN-20200525192537-20200525222537-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.964483 | 368 |
This week was really good! We found 5 new investigators (we have about 30 total now....) and committed some more to baptismal dates! It is so great to see how the Lord is preparing people to hear the gospel! Most of those people have been found through tracting, which is slightly unexpected. We apparently did so well that we have been asked to teach in zone training on 'Finding by the Spirit'......Yay??
One of those people we tracted into is Earnest. We were tracting in his apartment complex and someone slammed the door on us. He was sitting outside and saw what happened and said "well, that was rude!" We of course had to talk to him after that :) Earnest is Baptist (of course) and has a very strong love of God and is very open to what we have to say. He is so great! He is definitely able to feel the Spirit when we teach him, he just doesn't always recognize it, which we are working on. He does what we ask him to do and he wants to come to church! He is very interested in the gospel and I know that his testimony is growing. I love being able to see the joy the gospel brings and how much it blesses those we teach. Earnest has gone through some really hard times and still struggles with that but he understands that it is through Christ that his pains will be erased. He has some addictions but he knows that he needs to get rid of them and that they keep him from being able to fully communicate with God. He said that God can't understand 'cloudy prayers' which is what happens when he smokes/drinks.
I love being able to testify of the power of the Atonement and that it covers everything. We have multiple investigators who are working on overcoming addictions and it is so powerful to see how Christ and His Atonement give them the strength they need to do that.
One of my favorite things this week has been the dictionary I got in the MTC. No, really. I have learned so much just by looking up words, especially ones that I have an understanding of. Something my companion did this week that I also started was reading her patriarchal blessing and looking up the words. I started that too and have already learned more and understood more of what it is telling me. I would invite all of you to do the same thing. I promise you will learn new things and understand it in a new way.
Personal revelation is amazing! I love knowing that I can get personal answers to questions and that God is aware of me as an individual. Ask Him for understanding, He will give it to you.
Fun story from the week:
We had gone to an appointment with one of our investigators but the house was dark. We knocked anyway. Her mom yelled that it was open, so we went in. The house was totally dark and we stood in the living room for a little bit trying to figure out what to do. The member who was with us wondered if the girl we were visiting was even home. We called her name and she didn't answer. Her mom apparently assumed we were her daughter, so she came downstairs. Completely naked, apparently. The member with us made eye contact with her and then the mom realized we weren't her daughter. Yikes!! It was a very awkward few minutes while we stood in the living room waiting to see what would happen.....

A couple of days ago I published the most recent income report for 2 niche sites that I purchased in January of this year.
Perrin and I sat down and recorded our thoughts on the sites and some of our plans going forward. In the podcast today, you will find not just a report on the income, but a more in-depth discussion about why one site is showing a lot of promise and why I am considering selling the other website.
Overall, we cover some of the lessons we've learned so far from purchasing these 2 sites. And we also discuss several interesting items that didn't make it into the last blog post including Mug Rootbeer, a Brandon Sanderson novel, kindle ebooks, SteveScottSite.com, eCommerceFuel.com, and a couple of other projects I'm working on.
As always, if you enjoy the podcast, I would love it if you left a review on iTunes right here.

Studies have shown that 91% of ERP companies have sadly received in the range of 31 – 80% of the projected value they expected to receive when they implemented their ERP software. In this 2018 report from Panorama, 95% of ERP customers saw process and bottom line improvements but for various reasons 91% of companies did not “finish the last mile”. The main reasons I have seen companies not realizing the full value include:
- Not doing a full process review upfront – to find process improvement opportunities
- Purchasing the software with a budget first priority, instead of a strategic company improvement priority.
- The implementation of the ERP took longer or was more expensive than expected so “finishing the race “ seemed too difficult.
Everyone wants to maximize their IT dollars, while simultaneously finding ways to stay competitive in the economic landscape. Is there low hanging fruit in your ERP implementation? Have you always wondered if that website, logistics system, real time business intelligence or customer experience system – could somehow work seamlessly with your ERP? Have you wondered why getting critical information isn’t flowing to the people who need it, causing undue disruption to your critical business processes? Have you ever wondered if vendors, customers or employees could interact remotely with your system in safe and secure ways? I call these your “low hanging fruit” opportunities. A good partner, focused on the well being of your business will be quickly able to help you look at what is possible, in the most expeditious and cost effective.
Many of these examples of low hanging fruit – don’t require a new ERP or even an upgrade. They need an ERP specialist who knows your industry or better yet your specific business. It takes skill, knowledge and sometimes a dash of courage to think outside the traditional box. This professional can dig into the problem, present you with options and proposes options that start with easy (quick and effective), medium (more investment, greater return) or large (the complete solution that sets you up for the future).
The studies suggest that 91% of companies like yours aren’t receiving the full value you envisioned you receive from your ERP system. Likely there is value, that is relatively easy to acquire without expensive ERP changes or upgrades. If you have always wondered why the system doesn’t… call a Mibusoft ERP specialist today and we can help you “take a hold” and help you “finish the race”. | <urn:uuid:ea309644-8dd1-4244-a2e9-e998fd7fe39a> | CC-MAIN-2023-14 | https://mibusoft.com/your-erp-system-are-you-receiving-full-value-not-likely/ | 2023-03-26T14:41:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-14/segments/1679296945473.69/warc/CC-MAIN-20230326142035-20230326172035-00280.warc.gz | en | 0.946029 | 544 |

"We'll Do Your Mom First," I Said 9
"She's fallen asleep," Kev announced when I got back from the washroom. I'd rushed off to the pisser the second the movie had ended.
"She has?" I asked innocently.
"Do you think she's okay, I can't seem to wake her."
"It's late. She was probably just tired, maybe we better help her to her room," I suggested.
"Why, do you think something wrong with her?"
I smiled. I watched my friend and saw as realization suddenly dawned. "You didn't put something in her drink did you?"
"You get her arms, I'll get her legs," I answered as I moved over and stood between her legs.
"What was it?" Kevin asked as I put my hands under Mrs. White's legs and slowly pulled then up off the ground.
"Don't let your mom fall," I ordered as I started to pull her up off the couch and towards me. The kimono spilled open as I did and the hem of the matching nightie she wore below rode high up onto her thighs.
"We can't," Kevin said even as he grabbed his mom's shoulders.
"Michelle's wearing sexy white lace panties tonight," I told my friend as we started across the room with his mom in our arms.
"Don't call her that ... she's Mrs. White to you," he answered, trying to assert some authority even as his eyes strayed to his mom's legs. At his angle he couldn't see her panties.
"She dressed up in her sexiest panties for yours truly, I'll bet she was hoping I'd get to see them."
"She did not."
"You go first.... go backwards," I instructed as we neared the playroom door.
"Don't look at her," he ordered as, backing up, he struggled to hold his mom up. My supporting hands had moved up even farther and were now right under her bum.
I ignored him and then when he stumbled a bit I told him, "God Kev, don't touch your mother's tits!" One of his hands, slipping, had grasped his mother's breast.
"I'm not. Fuck, you should have gone first." A minute later, after struggling down the hall to the White's master bedroom, we deposited Kevin's mother in the middle of her king size bed.
"We'll have to take off her robe," I instructed as I undid the sash that held it together. "Lift her shoulders up so I can get it off."
"Do we have to? Couldn't we just--" He stopped as the outer robe slipped off his mom's shoulders and down her back. The matching nightie, once exposed, was décolleté and tightly hugged the full breasts that were clearly braless. Both of us could easily see the dark circles of her areolas and the nipples that protruded up from them. "Will, we can't--"
I ignored him.
"Nooooo." A moaning protest as he watched me slip one of the spaghetti straps of the gown off her shoulder. Then the second. Mrs. W's breasts were perfect.
"What are you going to do?" he asked as I worked the garment down over her hips. She was wearing matching lace, bikini panties. I pulled them slowly down. Mouth agape, he said nothing as I arranged his mother's hands at her sides and spread her knees slightly. Her blond bush stared up at me. He said nothing when I turned and left the room. He was still sitting in the same position on the edge of the bed next to his mom when I reappeared thirty seconds later. Except he had a huge hard on sticking out from his now undone fly. I had my digital camera in my hand.
He came out of it when I took the first picture. "She's my mom." he said. I handed him the camera.
"I want you to film me," I told him as he took the offered camera, then I scrambled up the bed between his mom's legs.
"Film what? You're not going to--"
"My first nipple," I answered as my hand closed around Michelle White's left breast. Seconds later I'd bent over her and captured her right one between my lips. For minutes I feasted on her, my sucking lips continually darting from one nipple to the other.
"She'll wake up," Kev protested in the background. I finally pulled back from the succulent orbs.
"Your turn," I offered as I cupped one of Mrs. White's breasts in my now sweaty palm and squeezed it.
"It's wrong," he protested.
"No." I took his hand and placed it on his mom's tit. He groaned but he didn't let go. "It's so wrong," he said as his other hand closed on her other breast.
"Put it in your mouth, like you did when you were a baby," I encouraged as I pointed the camera and pushed the record button. He did. It had been eighteen years since he'd sucked at his mother's nipples. As his hands and mouth worked I slipped back off the bed and then quickly shucked my shorts. Then I climbed up back between them, my hard cock bobbing up against my stomach.
"She trims it," I said as my hands slipped up her inner thighs.
"Trims what?" he asked as he looked up from his mom's breast.
"Her blond bush," I said as my left hand slipped over her mound.
"Don't touch it," he ordered, watching intently as I spread the lips of his mom's sex.
"Jeeesus Kev, look at this man," I said as I bared her pink insides.
"What?" He'd forgotten her breasts. "What is it?"
"Her clitoris, look, right here," I said as I gently nudged the little bud with my finger.
"She'll wake up," he said as I dipped my head and then lightly put the tip of my tongue on her bright pink protrusion. "Are you sure that's her clit?"
"Oh fuck... oh fuck... oh fuck," I groaned into her slit as my tongue ran up and down the moist channel.
"What? What is it?"
"Look how pink she is inside. You have to taste it Kev."
"What's it like?" I moved back. A second later Kevin White's tongue was inside his mother's vagina!
"It's my turn," I ordered two minutes later, but Kev ignored me until I forcefully pulled his head back. It was my cocks turn.
"What are you going to do? You're not going to put it inside mom are you?" Kev asked as I moved in.
"Not today," I answered as I brought my straining, engorged erection right up to the now glistening lips of his mom's vagina. "I'm just introducing myself," I added as I slid my cockhead up and down her channel.
Then I pushed the middle finger of my left hand inside her . "What's it feel like?" he asked. In his excitement Kev was actually panting.
"Fuck, she's tight ... but wet ... Christ really wet Kev," I told my friend as I slipped a second finger inside.
"She is? Are they supposed to be?"
"But it's so tight. I don't think my cock will ever fit in here. Oh my gawd she just squeezed my fingers."
"She did? Let me try now, it's my turn," Kev demanded. I slowly pulled my fingers out of his mother. Then brought them to my face and smelled them. Then I held them under Kev's nose. His hand was slowly palming his cock.
I held the camera and stared filming once Kevin had positioned himself between Mrs. W's legs. Excited, he actually slipped the bulb that was his cockhead completely inside his mom. Then quickly pulled it out. Then, after looking at me, as if to get my okay, he pushed it in again.
"Push it in all the way," I encouraged. And then I filmed him as he pushed every inch of his long cock deep inside his mom. She groaned in her sleep.
"It's tight Will, it's squeezing me too," my friend groaned as he slowly pulled it all the way out.
"Do it again," I told him. He immediately obeyed. "Again," I ordered.
"Oh fuck, I'm going to cum," he stammered even before he'd bottomed out the third time.
"Jesus, take it out, don't cum in her," I ordered. The first thick creamy strand of cum exploded from the end of his penis scant milliseconds after he'd pulled out. Scrambling to his feet, and still spurting, he raced to his mother's bathroom. | <urn:uuid:115904db-497c-4012-aada-c0cf437add0c> | CC-MAIN-2015-35 | http://www.looti.net/12_6016_10.html | 2015-09-03T02:29:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-35/segments/1440645298065.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20150827031458-00225-ip-10-171-96-226.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.995148 | 1,888 |
Springfield was a hub of Underground Railroad activity for people escaping slavery by traveling north through the Connecticut River Valley of western Massachusetts. Aella Greene's series of articles in the Springfield Republican newspaper, drawn from primary sources of 1900 documented some of that activity. The Springfield History Library & Archives is replete with artifacts, primary source documents, and research materials related to the issues of slavery, abolition, John Brown, the League of Gileadites, and the UGRR in western Massachusetts.

S:CRAFT solid panel shutters are a classic shutter style with an elegant finish
A style that dates back over 200 years, solid shutters are a firm favourite for our customers with Edwardian and Victorian period properties.
Solid Wood Panel Shutters For Your Home
Solid panel shutters offer an elegant look whilst giving total control over light and privacy, with enhanced insulation benefits.
Opening the panels fully will let in as much sunlight as possible during the day and shutting the panels at night will help to block out any external light sources.
Crafted from our premium hardwood ranges, Fiji and Sumatra, you can choose from a wide range of colours and wooden finishes to tailor your solid shutters to your home style.
Call us on 01270 619 006 to book an in-home appointment with our shutter design specialists or alternatively get in touch via the website and we’ll call you back.
Our solid wood internal shutters look great, we ordered them specially for our arched windows so their shape was emphasised rather than hidden by curtains and we ordered a couple of rectangular ones too for other windows in the same area. They look stunning and were well worth the wait!Rosalind Finn

As ministry leaders, we are constantly in the limelight. Our service is often very public, receiving praise and acknowledgement from those around us. Every week, everyone sees what we do. They see the way we lead our teams. They see us cast vision and implement systems. They know we hold significant leadership positions in the church. Sure, they may not fully understand what it looks like to wake up when it’s still dark on a Sunday morning to get to church with a smile on our face. But they know who we are and that we serve our church.
I was struck by this as I led worship at a church about month ago. The service wrapped up and the pastor ascended the platform to dismiss the congregation. He thanked me publicly as the worship leader and the congregation clapped in response. Everyone was dismissed and I gathered my guitar, cables, pedals, etc., checked to make sure the stage was cleared, and began to walk out the door. I turned and nearly bumped into the person gathering used communion cups. There was a team of 5 people breaking down chairs and setting up tables for an upcoming event. The crew in foyer were cleaning dirty coffee pots and the nursery team (who had been their equally as long as me) sat on the floor scrubbing toys with disinfectant. Every one of these people worked incredibly hard and sacrificially, but none of them received a public thank you.
It made me think: where am I serving “thanklessly” in my life right now? As a worship leader, it’s sometimes easy to think that because my job is service-oriented and at church, I’m excused from finding other areas to serve. However, God calls us to humble ourselves and to serve in the shadows. Though we may not receive a thank you on the other side, we are refined through the process.
The greatest among you will be your servant. For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.” – Matthew 23:11-12
Jesus had a very public ministry on earth. He fed the five thousand, performed jaw-dropping miracles, and shared the gospel from a platform that brought thousands to hear what he had to say. Yet, at the same time, He was humble. He met the woman at the well and heard her story. He washed the disciples feet. He befriended and dined with those everyone else hated. He humbled himself and gave the ultimate sacrifice as he hung upon the cross.
For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” – Mark 10:45
As women who have been called to lead, I wonder: how can we imitate Christ’s humility by finding places to serve and love on people in anonymous, “thankless” ways? Maybe you need to find an outlet for service outside of your church, where people don’t know you. Or, perhaps you need to use the platform you’ve been given at your church to mentor one of the younger girls who looks up to you. Perhaps you are a mom and your thankless service is changing a million diapers a day and making nightly dinners. Whatever that humble service is for you, know that God is glorified through the works of your hands.
How do you find ways to serve, outside of your primary ministry role?

On average, women apply more than 7 different products on her skin daily. This is a huge toxic burden on our skin accumulated after years. Needless to say, all commercial products use foaming agents and artificial preservatives. Why take the chance when you have the option of reducing toxic build-up in your body? Pureness. Honest. Goodness. We make every effort to raise awareness of what these tounge-twisting ingredients may do to our body over years of exposure and use. | <urn:uuid:50517b7a-e873-4501-bcf5-7383be9bca19> | CC-MAIN-2021-25 | https://savannagoodness.com/ingredients-to-avoid/ | 2021-06-13T11:55:32Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-25/segments/1623487608702.10/warc/CC-MAIN-20210613100830-20210613130830-00625.warc.gz | en | 0.928666 | 99 |
Cerebral lateralization has been suggested to convey a selective advantage to individuals by enhancing their cognitive abilities. Few, however, have explicitly compared the cognitive ability of animals with strongly contrasting laterality. Here, we examined the influence of laterality on learning performance in the crimson spotted rainbowfish, Melanotaenia duboulayi, using a classical conditioning paradigm. We also compared the learning ability of wild caught and captive-reared fish to examine the influence of rearing environment on cognitive performance. Laterality was established by observing which eye fish preferred to use while viewing their mirror image. Subjects were then conditioned to associate the appearance of a red light with a food reward over 7 days. Our results revealed that left-lateralized fish learned the conditioning task faster than right-lateralized. These results provide further evidence that cerebral lateralization can play important roles in cognitive function which likely have diverse fitness consequences for animals in their natural environments.

New Jerseyans pay more for health insurance than most other places in the country. That’s according to a new report issued by the Department of Health and Human Services.
“The real difference is that the cost of services in New Jersey is higher — the cost of doctors, the cost of hospitals,” said New Jersey Association of Health Plans President Wardell Sanders.
According to the federal report, New Jerseyans pay an average premium of $148 per month. That’s 55 percent higher than the average $82 premium paid in all the other states in the federally-facilitated marketplace.
“Looking at Medicare data, other sources, it’s pretty consistent. We use more specialty care here, we use more hospital care, particularly toward the end of life, people with chronic conditions, more hospital re-admissions than elsewhere. A lot of those indicators are improving but they are improving elsewhere too so we remain an outlier on cost,” explained Joel Cantor, director of the Center for State Health Policy at Rutgers University.
New Jerseyans do get more subsidies to help pay for our high premium costs than many other places. But some say that those subsidies may not last if the cost of health care is not brought under control.
One solution that’s getting a lot of attention is a model of care some like to call “concierge care for the masses.”
“For example, helping people manage their own chronic conditions, that’s a huge driver of cost. If I have diabetes for example and I end up in the hospital repeatedly because my blood sugar gets out of whack, I need to learn how to manage that better. But the primary care doctors also need to be available more. Off hours availability, telephone availability, phone calls from the office to remind me to take my medicine, fill my prescription and so on. And those kinds of things are just really starting to ramp up,” said Cantor.
“It’s really changing the way care is delivered and paid for. Better coordination, better dialogue between payers and it’s very patient centric,” Sanders said.
Sanders also says that New Jersey needs to step in on out-of-control emergency room price gouging.
Some say health care costs need to be made more transparent, so the consumer can shop around and make more savvy choices.
“It’s very difficult for a consumer to call around to get any type of information,” said New Jersey Health Care Quality Institute Vice President Linda Schwimmer. “We’re going to go to a more consumer driven market where consumers are gonna need to know what they are purchasing, how much it’s gonna cost them, what are their options and what’s the quality of what they are getting.”
And Schwimmer says those big subsidies we’re getting to help shoulder the cost may not be sustainable. She thinks bigger subsidies should go to the insurance plans that do the most to lower health care costs. | <urn:uuid:79231444-d1ab-48c7-a7a7-5209adfb15ff> | CC-MAIN-2016-36 | http://www.njtvonline.org/news/video/nj-pays-highest-health-insurance-premiums-through-obamacare/ | 2016-08-26T23:23:11Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-36/segments/1471982296721.55/warc/CC-MAIN-20160823195816-00075-ip-10-153-172-175.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.940188 | 637 |
test code errors in platformIO
I have downloaded Visual Studio Code and set it up on my Windows machine.
I have copied Bills test codes from the DB1 GitHub pages and saved them using PIO.
they are all showing errors!
"comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions"
"not declared" is another, the variable is declared at the bottom of the code.
Does anyone else have the same issue or am I doing something wrong here?
I recently setup vscode with PlatformIO following the directions in the Dronebot Workshop Youtube video. To test the code related to the video I did the following and all seemed to work ok. I use Windows 10.
1. Downloaded the zip file "PlatformIO+-+DronBot+Workshop.zip" using the url dbot.ws/piocode.
2. Extracted files. I put them in user folder "Documents/PlatformIO/PlatformIO+-+DronBot+Workshop"
3. Opened vscode and did File->Open Folder ... From file selection dialog selected folder of the test code (i.e. "Arduino Blink Test")
4. Opened src/main.cpp in Explorer pane
I did have an issue when I tried almost any thing in PIO with Windows 10 blocking programs access to files in the Documents folder. Problem was related to "Controlled folder access" feature. You can turn this feature off or allow specific apps though. I decide to use allow function - I added programs as I found them (something failed - I checked what program was blocked and then added it.)
Not sure this helps. If you post more specifics on what you tried I can see if I can help you.
When you're retired, every day is Saturday.
@vieuxgeek Without having the exact code you are trying to compile, it ia almost impossible for anyone to help you. Perhaps you could but the link drop the link you are trying to compile here and someone could give you a better answer. My guess is both errors are correct. You should never compare unlike types. Either make them both sighed or both unsigned. In both 'C' and 'C++', variables must be declared PRIOR to use. Arduino IDE lets you get away with it but it is not good coding practice. Try moving the variable declaration to the top of the file but below any includes.
thanks guys, yes the code runs in the Arduino IDE, so iy seems its the problem you specified. | <urn:uuid:a8905e4e-ec49-42a4-a30b-8ed7b18bdf97> | CC-MAIN-2023-14 | https://forum.dronebotworkshop.com/arduino/test-code-errors-in-platformio/ | 2023-03-21T01:48:14Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-14/segments/1679296943589.10/warc/CC-MAIN-20230321002050-20230321032050-00667.warc.gz | en | 0.933869 | 532 |
A "savage" rapist has been given a life sentence with a minimum of 18 years after shattering a woman's skull and leaving her for dead near a children's play park.
Cocaine user Zakarya Etarghi, who was on licence at the time after receiving a nine-year sentence for robbery in 2012, attacked a woman in her 50s hours before pleading with friends to get him on "a truck out of the country".
The victim was left with life-threatening injuries near the play park off Cedar Road, Leicester, just after 4.45am on August 3 last year.
In a statement read to the court on Monday, she described the attack as "like something out of a horror film".
Etarghi sent "incriminating" messages to his friends after the attack, including one which said: "I can just see it, today is the day I get nicked."
Other messages, sent to friends on WhatsApp, indicated he would have "handed myself in by now" if his "bro wasn't coming out", and that he was "looking at 10 to 20" - which the prosecution suggested was referring to the number of years in prison.
The defendant's trial was told that he searched the internet for "crime news" and paid "close attention" to the incident in Cedar Park.
He then fled 60 miles away to Stoke-on-Trent and "laid low" for a fortnight until his arrest.
His victim suffered massive facial trauma, a complex open skull fracture with bleeding to the brain, life-threatening low blood pressure, contusion to the left lung, spinal fractures and significant brain injuries.
DNA profiles obtained from blood on pieces of paper and cigarette packets in the defendant's flat matched the woman.
A jury of six men and six women convicted the 24-year-old defendant of attempted murder and rape after being told to "steel themselves" to hear the facts of the case.
Etarghi, of no fixed address, admitted he was in the park that night but denied both charges, claiming someone else must have been responsible.
Flanked by four dock officers at Leicester Crown Court on Monday, the defendant, wearing a white shirt and a black tie, showed no emotion and looked straight ahead as he was sentenced.
Jailing Etarghi for life, Judge Nicholas Dean QC said: "It is difficult to conceive of more serious offences of their type than the offences you were convicted of.
"This was also a most brutal sexual attack - savage is not too extreme a word to use of the sexual and physical violence used by you.
"The facts and circumstances of the events in the Cedar Road park would lead anyone to the conclusion that you were and are dangerous.
"You were responsible for controlled and extreme sexual brutality and physical violence of a most callous and horrifying type.
"Your efforts after the events to evade arrest and your lack of remorse for your actions suggest a man little troubled by his own capacity for brutal violence.
"It seems to me that you were being violent whilst you raped and sexually abused (the victim), and being violent not just to overpower her, but violent to gain sexual gratification."
Etarghi's previous convictions were read to the court, which included a series of class A drug offences, battery, assault and robbery.
In a statement read on her behalf by prosecutor William Harbage QC, the victim said: "What happened was like something out of a horror film.
"I think he's a horrible and disgusting human being because what he did goes beyond anything that I can speak of.
"I feel like I constantly need help and cannot live my life as independently as I once did.
"Sometimes I just sob to myself because it is so hard."
Describing her experience of the trial, the victim continued: "I had to walk out at one point because it all got too much.
"I could not stand the lies that were being said about me. I felt totally humiliated by the whole thing.
"Despite all this, I'm glad I came to court. I wanted justice and that is what I got. I wanted him to know that he can't make life any worse for me than he already has.
"I'm still here, I'm still alive and for that I'm grateful." | <urn:uuid:df12faa6-2505-4d72-8fac-ee48ee189865> | CC-MAIN-2020-34 | https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-news/savage-rapist-zakarya-etarghi-who-16026552 | 2020-08-06T10:03:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-34/segments/1596439736902.24/warc/CC-MAIN-20200806091418-20200806121418-00381.warc.gz | en | 0.985127 | 892 |

Best known for its ultra-affordable, thong-friendly wine series, Flipflop (or all-lowercased flipflop, as they write it) is now branching into rum, with two equally affordable sugar-based spirits.
There’s not a lot of information on provenance available: They hail from “the Caribbean” and are four-times distilled, but that’s all the info provided. We tasted both of varieties, which are now shipping.
Flipflop Silver Rum is surprisingly clean and easy, with a traditional sugar-based nose and a finish with plenty of molasses in it and a lightly chalky, coconut and chocolate character. Very modest medicinal character on the finish, like a clean vodka. Amazing quality for the price. 80 proof. A-
Flipflop Spiced Rum is spiked with “spices and natural flavors,” which tinge the nose with a bit of orange character. A bigger body brings with it some typical spiced rum character — more clove than cinnamon, but both are evident — and a broader, vanilla-fueled finish. There’s unfortunately a quite bitter aftertaste, though, which spiced rum fanatics will not likely thrill to. 70 proof. B-

Creative expression has been found to be valuable in providing people in recovery with a comfortable way to discuss difficult issues, relieve stress, and find common ground with their peers, supporting their long-term recovery success.

Police say the attack that transformed a popular New York City bike path along the Hudson River into a scene of terror was perpetrated by a lone man they consider a terrorist.
A family friend described the suspect as calm and hard-working, while President Donald Trump derided him as "sick and deranged." A picture of the man's life only just began to emerge in the immediate hours after the Tuesday attack that killed at eight people and injured 11 more.
A look at what is known about Sayfullo Saipov:
A YOUNG IMMIGRANT
Officials who were not authorized to discuss the investigation and spoke on the condition of anonymity identified Saipov as the attacker and said he is 29 and originally from Uzbekistan.
He came to the U.S. legally in 2010, the officials said, and it is believed that he lived first in Ohio after his arrival.
An acquaintance, Dilnoza Abdusamatova, said Saipov briefly stayed with his family in a Cincinnati suburb upon immigrating.
"He always used to work," Abdusamatova told The Cincinnati Enquirer. "He wouldn't go to parties or anything. He only used to come home and rest and leave and go back to work."
DRAWN TO FLORIDA
Authorities said Saipov had a Florida driver's license and some public records showed an address for him at a Tampa apartment complex.
Residents at that complex said FBI agents came by Tuesday evening and conducted interviews.
Michael Roberts, 30, an overnight shift worker, said he was asleep when the agents showed up at about 5:30 p.m. but that they interviewed his cousin. He said both he and his cousin had moved in only a week ago and had never heard of Saipov.
A friend who met Saipov in Florida, Kobiljon Matkarov, told The New York Times and the New York Post that he seemed like a "very good guy."
"My kids like him too. He is always playing with them," Matkarov told the Post.
NEW JERSEY TIES
Officials said Saipov was living recently in New Jersey, where he allegedly rented a Home Depot pickup truck an hour before driving it onto the bike path.
On Tuesday night, police investigating the deadly rampage surrounded a white Toyota minivan with Florida plates parked in the parking lot of a Home Depot in Passaic, New Jersey.
The van was parked near the company's rental trucks.
The ride-hailing company Uber said Saipov passed its background check and drove for the service for six months, making more than 1,400 trips.
The company said it banned him from the service after the attack. It said it was in touch with the FBI and offered its assistance and that it was reviewing Saipov's driving history but found no related safety reports.
COMMERCIAL TRUCK DRIVER
Records show Saipov was a commercial truck driver who formed a pair of businesses in Ohio.
The first business, Sayf Motors Inc., used the address of a family friend near Cincinnati with whom Saipov had stayed for a couple of weeks after his arrival in the country.
The second, Bright Auto LLC, used an address near Cleveland.
A trucking industry website listed Saipov at a Paterson, New Jersey, address that authorities were searching Tuesday night. Court records related to trucking-related infractions list Saipov with addresses in Paterson and the Cleveland suburbs.
According to the records, a warrant was issued for Saipov's arrest in April 2016 when he missed a hearing on a misdemeanor for not having the right brakes on his vehicle. He resolved the case in November 2016 by pleading guilty and paying $200 in fines and court costs.
NO DIGITAL FOOTPRINT
No social media accounts linked to Saipov emerged immediately after the attack, but there were possible clues to his personal life.
A marriage license filed in Summit County, Ohio, lists a man by the name of Sayfulloh Saipov marrying Nozima Odilova on April 12, 2013. It lists the same Cleveland-area apartment noted as the headquarters of Bright Auto LLC.
The license lists Saipov as a truck driver. His wife is about six years younger. Both list Tashkent, Uzbekistan, as their hometown. | <urn:uuid:e5e15bbd-ac0d-49cb-9d5d-ea6909ca3bfc> | CC-MAIN-2018-22 | https://www.ibtimes.co.uk/who-sayfullo-saipov-6-things-know-about-new-york-truck-attack-terrorist-1645403 | 2018-05-26T06:52:54Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-22/segments/1526794867311.83/warc/CC-MAIN-20180526053929-20180526073929-00444.warc.gz | en | 0.981868 | 904 |
When Kathleen posted that Being Boss was looking for contributors to the site I immediately thought I should make a playlist. Blogging isn’t really my jam. I love good blogs, I appreciate good writing, I occasionally produce good writing, but it’s not my go-to format.
This implies that I have a “go-to format,” which I don’t. Like any good millennial I dabble, however the area I dabble in the most is music. I have zero musical talent. I can’t sing to save my life. My parents were forced into music lessons as children and hated them. Therefore, they did not force a single musical instrument on my brother or me. We are just big music fans, which is a great prerequisite to being a deejay. It’s a great medium to share our fandom.
A quick note on this playlist: I was trying to think of a theme—I love a good theme—and some months moving forward will have a solid theme. This one doesn’t. It has been a crazy start to the year, and my counter to crazy is long walks and loud music.
So I made the list I needed to walk to.
You don’t have to walk to it. You can work to it, dance to it, cook to it, drive to it, even put it on shuffle! You’re the boss. | <urn:uuid:08eba8e0-57fa-49ea-8011-3885876f2be2> | CC-MAIN-2019-18 | https://beingboss.club/articles/boss-playlist-music-long-walks | 2019-04-20T20:39:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-18/segments/1555578530040.33/warc/CC-MAIN-20190420200802-20190420222802-00231.warc.gz | en | 0.967786 | 298 |
Welcome to Day 2 of Madeit Fashion Week 2016
I hope you enjoyed yesterday’s shows, it was a real treat for me and Anna to see everyones interpretation of DROP. The standard at Madeit Fashion Week 2016 is high and the talented stars of the show sure know how to rock the Drop.
Be excited for today’s shows, they will not disappoint. Enjoy the music and marvel at the exceptional sewing, modelling and photography skills of the Anna, Ute and Eva. And be sure to stick around to the end for the Daily Giveaway.
First up we have Anna from Blogless Anna. Anna likes: staying in her pjs all day, bright colours and fragrant roses. She dislikes: sniffing, cucumbers and changing the sheets.
I’m just glad there’s a comma after the sniffing.
Take a closer look at Anna’s short sleeve Drop Dress.
Now give a warm welcome to Ute, Ute likes rainy days, matcha latte and teaching Tai Chi. She doesn’t like grocery shopping, vacuuming her car and cooking just for herself.
I have identical dislikes to Ute, grocery shopping is so dull and it takes away from valuable sewing time. I have a solution though Gousto or Hello Fresh. But neither of them have sponsored Madeit Fashion Week so I’m not adding a link. Ha ha!!!
And lastly today we have Eva from By Eva Maria who made a Drop Dress for her teenage daughter. Eva likes walking in the grass barefoot, champagne (no wonder we’ve run out today, and we bought 2000 bottles) and wandering in cities she doesn’t know.
She doesn’t like the smell of buses (weird! do buses all have the same smell?), red cabbage and her own morning moodiness.
I spy a beautiful teenager in a stunning red Drop Dress go take a peak.
That’s it for Day 2 of Madeit Fashion Week, thank you for coming and I hope you have been inspired to make a Drop Dress or Top for yourself. If so, sashay on over to Madeit Patterns and use code‘MFW2016‘ to get 20% off DROP.
And in our Daily Giveaway today you can win* a free DROP pattern by being the 8th person to leave a comment on Anna or Eva‘s Drop blog post.

JUNEAU (AP) A bill to double the amount of money people can contribute to state political campaigns was approved by the House on Monday.
But it touched off a bitter fight on the House floor from both Democrats and Republicans who argued that it would derail campaign finance reforms imposed in 1996.
Rep. Bob Lynn, R-Anchorage, said the measure would strengthen the hold incumbents have on their seats and make it more difficult for newcomers to compete.
''That fellow is still only going to get the $25 and $50 contributions so you have widened the gap and you have put a chilling effect on the democratic process,'' Lynn said.
''To me, it's about the same category as somebody putting in a bill to double our salary. I don't think anybody here would want to do that,'' he said.
Senate Bill 119 would raise campaign contribution limits placed on individual donors, political action committees and parties.
Here's some of the increases:
Raise from $500 to $1,000 a year the amount an individual can give to a single candidate or political action committee;
Raise from $5,000 to $10,000 a year the amount an individual can give to a political party to influence elections.
Raise from $1,000 to $2,000 a year the amount a political action committee can contribute to a candidate.
Raise from $1,000 to $4,000 a year the amount a political action committee can contribute to a political party.
The bill also makes several changes to the Alaska Public Offices Commission, which is charged with overseeing campaigns.
The agency would hold hearings on election complaints more quickly, have greater latitude in ruling on so-called ''issue ads'' and require electronic reporting by candidates to give the public quicker information on contributions.
Rep. Tom Anderson, R-Anchorage, said the measure also requires candidates to report the names of each person who contributes to a candidate rather than those that give more than $100.
Anderson said the measure is endorsed by the Alaska Public Offices Commission and is meant to adjust the cost of campaigns with inflation.
The Murkowski administration had earlier proposed saving $500,000 by eliminating the commission and having its work transferred to the Division of Elections and the Department of Law.
Murkowski's chief complaint was that the agency moved too slowly in responding to election complaints. The agency had proposed this bill during discussions with the administration.
But critics of the measure say the good done by the bill is overshadowed by the increased limits, which they argue is well in excess of inflation.
They argue the changes repeal elements of a 1996 campaign finance reform law adopted by the Legislature to replace a voter initiative to restrict campaign funding.
Rep. Harry Crawford, D-Anchorage, who worked on that ballot initiative, said he would spend this summer trying to get a similar measure back on the ballot.
The bill allows wealthy contributors to contribute more to candidates who may be influenced by their backing. ''That's why I call it the sugar-daddy bill,'' Crawford said.
The measure could come up for another vote in the House under a procedural move. It would then go to the Senate to consider the changes made to the bill.
Two amendments attempting to roll back the contribution limits proposed in the bill failed. Senate Bill 119 passed 22-15.
Reps. Ethan Berkowitz, D-Anchorage; Sharon Cissna, D-Anchorage; Crawford, Les Gara, D-Anchorage; Carl Gatto, R-Palmer; Max Gruenberg, D-Anchorage; David Guttenberg, D-Fairbanks; Beth Kerttula, D-Juneau; Vic Kohring, R-Wasilla; Albert Kookesh, D-Angoon; Lynn, Carl Moses, D-Unalaska; Dan Ogg, R-Kodiak; Paul Seaton, R-Homer, and Bruce Weyhrauch, R-Juneau, voted against the measure.

The Manchester Baby was one of the first stored program computers. It used a CRT tube to store data and worked sequentially a bit at a time. It took about an hour to find a factor of a number but it was revolutionary and the first of the Manchester machines.
Was Baby the first computer?
There was a time when there were no computers - and then there was a time when there were. You might be tempted to conclude from this that there was a “first” computer but the more I look into the history of the early days the more I become convinced that there wasn’t.
The reason is that once the idea of a stored computer was in the air lots of different people caught its scent. Even a tiny whiff was enough for them to re-invent all they needed to build a computer.
How clear this vision was varied greatly from one group to another - but in all cases it was enough for them to build a working machine. You can get into arguments about whose machine was switched on first or even which machine was a real computer - but this just hides the deeper truth.
Manchester was one of the three main UK centres of computer development in the early days - the others were Cambridge and the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) at Teddington. Even though Cambridge built the first full size working stored computer, Manchester got a small machine - the “Baby" or Small Scale Experimental Machine - going first and so can claim the title of “first working stored program computer”.
But this isn’t the Manchester School’s most important claim to fame - they built computers in the plural.
The two key people in the story of the Manchester computers are Freddie Williams and Tom Kilburn but there were many other important influences and contributors.
Frederic Calland Williams (1911-1977)
Tom Kilburn (1921-2001)
Williams was an engineer and very keen on the new science of electronics. He gave the first course at Manchester, where he was an assistant lecturer, on “electro-technics”. Even in these pre-electronic days computing had started to put down roots at Manchester. Hartree’s mechanical differential analyser was already built and in use and Williams was at work designing a “curve follower” for it. This expertise in analog computation and electronics made it natural for Williams to work on radar for the TRE (Telecommunications Research Establishment) when the war started.
Kilburn first met Williams at the TRE facility in Malvern. He was a mathematician but his first war time assignment was to help Williams, then a Senior Scientific Officer, to develop electronics for radar use. He managed to learn practical electronics reasonably fast and soon came to be regarded as “useful”.
The Williams Tube - the first DRAM
Towards the end of the war Williams became editor of a 24-volume work on electronics - the importance of which was that it was published by MIT. This gave him the opportunity to visit the USA in 1945-46 and while there he heard of the work going on at the Moore school, where ENIAC was under construction. He also visited Bell labs where they were working on the problem of removing ground echoes from radar traces. Williams thought of using two CRTs to store the outline by passing it backwards and forwards between the two.
A page from volume 18 of the MIT Radation Laboratory Series from http://www.oldcomputerbooks.com
On his return to TRE he started work on building a demonstration system but then he realised that he could use the same technique to build a single tube digital storage system.
By December he had a digital system based on a single CRT that could store 1 bit! It worked by leaving a gap in the trace or no gap in the trace. When the beam scanned the line a second time there was a pulse just before the edge marking where the gap was last time and this could be amplified and fed back to put the gap back in again. Of course if the gap wasn’t there last time there was no pulse and the trace was continuous. It was a classic two-state system idea for storing digital data.
The data is stored in the tube by creating a small charged area around where the electron beam hit the tube. Normally the tube had a phosphor coating which made the pattern visible but later tubes did away with the phosphor. A pickup electrode in the form of a mesh is placed over the face of the tube and this can pick up the tiny current when the charge is readout by passing the beam over the same spot. Unfortunately this wipes out the charge and it has to be refreshed to maintain the storage. Also the charge leaked away over time making it necessary to refresh the screen by reading every bit and writing it back to the same location.
When the news of the success in storing a single bit reached the NPL they decided that they wanted Williams to build a storage device for their computer project - the ACE. But Williams realised that the ACE, Alan Turing’s design for a computer, relied far too much on delay line storage to be easily converted to CRT storage so he returned to Manchester to develop his idea further. | <urn:uuid:5e812e15-a30f-4f11-b7c7-b286bb5fa303> | CC-MAIN-2014-15 | http://www.i-programmer.info/history/9-machines/22-baby-mark-i.html | 2014-04-25T00:22:05Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-15/segments/1398223207046.13/warc/CC-MAIN-20140423032007-00199-ip-10-147-4-33.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.973608 | 1,077 |
Police are blaming impairment for a rash of driving mishaps on the weekend, including a flipped car, a severely damaged traffic pole, a damaged guard rail, speeding and erratic driving.
Five people are facing charges in four separate incidents between Saturday and early Sunday morning.
Sunday at 2 a.m. police saw a 2007 Chevrolet traveling east on Seminole Street at 80 to 90 kilometres per hour in a 50 zone.
Officers stopped the car at Pillette Road and Reginald Street. They say they found a 22-year-old male driver and 29-year-old male passenger who appeared to be under the influence and were acting suspicious, police said.
Officers found a jar on the car floor with a small amount of marijuana and a marijuana grinder.
Police said a drug recognition officer confirmed the driver was under the influence of a drug.
Charges of impaired driving, dangerous driving and possession of a narcotic are being pursued.
About the same time, police were tending to a flipped 2002 Chrysler at Dougall Avenue and Eugenie Street.
Officers found the upside down car in the middle of the road and a severely damaged traffic signal and pole.
The driver sustained minor injuries. Police administered a roadside breathalyzer which resulted in a three-day suspension.
The 40-year-old male driver from Windsor was also charged with careless driving.
The damage to the car and pole is estimated at $20,000.
In yet another incident, police are thanking a citizen who contacted officers about an erratic driver in a 1988 Corvette traveling at high speeds on E.C. Row near Central Avenue.
Shortly after the call, about 6 p.m. Saturday, officers say they located the driver in South Windsor on Dominion Boulevard.
The driver ignored police, at first refusing to pull over, officers said.
He was eventually pulled over and blew nearly two-and-a-half times over the legal blood alcohol limit, police said.
Police charged the 52-year-old man with impaired driving and impounded his car for seven days.
At about 4 a.m. Saturday, a 23-year-old woman was arrested for impaired driving after falling asleep at the wheel then hitting a guard rail and a concrete barrier while driving on E.C. Row.
The Windsor woman had been stopped in her car at a red light waiting to turn onto Central Avenue from E.C. Row, said police. A witness reported to police that when the light turned green, the car did not move. The witness honked and pulled up alongside the car, discovering that the 23-year-old appeared to be passed out at the wheel, said police.
While the light turned back to red, the witness honked again, causing the woman to awaken and drive through the red light, said police. Rather than turning onto Central, the woman drove straight into a guard rail and then continued driving east on the E.C. Row.
Police said the woman was seen swerving about on the E.C. Row with a flattened tire and at one point struck a concrete barrier on the overpass at Jefferson Blvd. As she continued along the expressway, her flattened tire spewed smoke and eventually almost came off as she passed Banwell Road, said police.
The woman was stopped by Windsor police just inside Tecumseh. She was arrested and faces charges of impaired driving. Her car was impounded.
Police said nobody was hurt in the incident. | <urn:uuid:5e57971f-61c5-447b-a8dd-e3012875165d> | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | http://blogs.windsorstar.com/2012/11/11/impaired-drivers-arrested-after-flipping-car-erratic-driving/ | 2013-05-22T20:21:20Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2013-20/segments/1368702444272/warc/CC-MAIN-20130516110724-00052-ip-10-60-113-184.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.978031 | 711 |
Unfortunately my extended family has decided that FB is the only means for communication so I can't do away with it if I want to know what is going on. I even found out that my grandson was in the hospital with pneumonia thru Facebook! **sigh**
It's totally sickening that people can't even pick up the phone anymore.
My sister uses it to air her "I'm drunk and not taking care of my kid antics" and to pick fights with my brother who said he misses MY kids, and he sees her ONE all the time (He hasn't seen his niece and nephew in about 3 years because the last time I was in Indiana, he was up-state, and I don't mean that as a euphemism LOL).
My brother also uses it to try and look "redneck" by misspelling everything and then blames auto-correct
I'll admit my random period.between.words I do is because of my phone, and that's because the space button is so close to the period button
I overshare. Always. It's who I am. Ask people in Friday night's chat ;)
I am sorry about the whole situation. I have a couple friends who complain about everything and anything but nothing in specific and if you ask about it, they get in your face like you shouldn't know. It is rather annoying.
I do daily updates about our day, but again thats' because we are so far away from friends and family that they check in on us through FB so they aren't calling daily (thank goodness because I'd never get anything done if I were on the phone all day!)
As to Missi's OP: Missi, it's cuz you're her mom. LOL, she doesn't want your opinion (which includes the truth about the drink's unhealthy contents), she just wants to brag about it with her friends. It doesn't matter how old she is... I know cuz I get annoyed when my mom posts Motherly things on my fb statuses rotfl! But she didn't have to delete and she definitely didn't have to send you a nasty text!
And I was so afraid that my loud mouth brother would post the name we'd picked out for DS on fb before he was born that I didn't tell him the name. Heck, I didn't even tell my mom cuz I was afraid she'd tell my brother and he'd blab it on fb! And only my close family (like my mom and dad--since they were flying down to visit lol) knew my c-s date. I only said "mid February" when people on fb asked when I was due. | <urn:uuid:145eb1b9-6639-4396-841f-a8499ff61d47> | CC-MAIN-2014-15 | http://forums.gingerscraps.net/showthread.php?17237-WHY&p=198698 | 2014-04-16T04:22:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-15/segments/1397609521512.15/warc/CC-MAIN-20140416005201-00000-ip-10-147-4-33.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.990431 | 549 |

European Medicines Agency staff survey indicates that the future of public health in Europe is at stake. To complement the European Commission’s assessment of all bids for the relocation of the Agency submitted by Member States that will be published later this month, EMA is making available the results of its most recent staff retention survey, which raised serious concerns.
The survey was launched on 4 September 2017 in the context of EMA’s business continuity planning, after all candidate host cities were known and EMA staff had the opportunity to study in detail the 19 Member States’ bids.
The results of the survey emphasize the importance of the upcoming decision on the EMA’s future seat as the retention of skilled and experienced staff is crucial for the Agency’s continuity of operations.
The outcome that was shared with staff earlier this month revealed that for certain locations staff retention rates could be significantly less than 30%. This would mean that the Agency is no longer able to function and, as there is no backup, this would have important consequences for public health in the EU. In a best case scenario, EMA could keep up to 81% of its workforce.
In accordance with the current business continuity planning, four clusters of candidate cities have emerged. The first cluster includes those cities where 65% or more of EMA staff indicated that they are likely to move. In the second cluster are cities where staff retention would range between 50 and 64%. The third cluster includes those to which between 30 and 49% of staff are likely to relocate. In the last cluster are those cities where less than 30% of EMA staff said they would follow.
In order to prepare for its relocation, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has been working on a business continuity plan aimed at ensuring that the assessment of medicines is not disrupted and that patients in Europe continue to have access to high quality, safe and effective medicines. Since November 2016, EMA carried out several staff surveys to help the Agency prepare for staff losses and to improve planning for succession and knowledge transfer. Some staff losses can be absorbed with EMA’s business continuity plan, but beyond a critical threshold the Agency will no longer be able to fulfil its mandate to protect the health of European citizens. | <urn:uuid:caa62603-e9bb-470a-b0af-dc69e9a8317c> | CC-MAIN-2017-51 | https://gmpnews.net/2017/09/ema-released-update-on-its-post-brexit-relocation/ | 2017-12-13T07:25:01Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-51/segments/1512948522205.7/warc/CC-MAIN-20171213065419-20171213085419-00504.warc.gz | en | 0.973923 | 455 |
Talking about sex with a new partner
One of the things that differentiates a friendship from a relationship is physical intimacy. While sex isn’t the most important aspect of a relationship, it should be something you can talk about with a new partner
Sex talk is not a subject to be discussed on a first date. Wait until you’re feeling confident that the connection between you is strong and that your relationship naturally seems to be moving in that direction. Although it may be easier, and less embarrassing, to get swept away on a sea of passion, it could be something you regret not talking about later.
No matter what your age, sexual health has to be on the agenda when you’re considering having sex. It’s not just how many sexual partners your date has had in the past, but also how many they’ve had. For example, if a man has had five previous partners in his life and each of them had five partners, that’s the sexual health of at least 25 people that you need to take into consideration.
The most reassuring thing you can do for each other is to go to your local sexual health clinic and get a clean bill of health. Even if you think you have never has any symptoms of a STD. Infections like Chlamydia often have no external symptoms but can still be passed on. If untreated, Chlamydia infections can cause serious reproductive and other health problems with both short-term and long-term consequences. It’s always better to be safe than sorry.
This is another aspect of sex that should not be taken for granted. Don’t assume that your partner has taken responsibility for this. Talk about it and make sure you’re both clear and happy about the precautions in place to avoid an unwanted pregnancy.
Most people don’t have sex on a first date but it’s more common on a second or third. If there’s a strong physical attraction this is understandable, but there are merits to holding back on the physical side of the relationship. Sexual intimacy exposes yourself at your most vulnerable. If this is a relationship you’re serious about, then taking the time to form a strong emotional connection, with a sense of safety and security, will lay better foundations for something lasting.
Some people are at the other end of the spectrum and want to wait until after they’re married before they have sex. Whatever your views and preferences are it’s important to be able to have a frank and open discussion with your partner. If you don’t feel you know them well enough to have an intimate conversation, then it’s probably too soon to have sex.
Sex and intimacy
Love knows no age limits and many people find love later in life. Sometimes age or health can limit the sexual activity you can engage in but there’s no reason why you can’t still have a deeply fulfilling relationship.
If there are limitations on the sexual activity you can participate in, it’s doubly important that you develop a strong emotional connection before you have an open discussion about sex. There are many ways to be intimate and affectionate with each other, and the important thing is that you’re both able to get physical pleasure and satisfaction within the relationship – how that’s achieved is up to you to decide as a couple.
To your own self be true
Giving your body is the most precious gift you can give to someone. Sex should not be used as a tool to control or manipulate someone, but as a physical expression of the love and desire you feel for each other.
No matter how eager your partner is to get physical, it’s important that you only do so when you are totally ready. Anyone who respects you, will respect your feelings and will be happy to wait.

When the masses purchased the iPod nano in droves last year, some were buying them as a supplement to their older 30, 40, and 60GB music players. That's nothing to be ashamed about. The more the merrier I always say! But when these second-time iPod consumers came back home with their glossy white shopping bag, carefully opening the made in Cali reprezent what what! packaging... something was missing. Accessories! Doh!
Originally, all of the add-ons from previous iPod (3g, 4g, and mini) models would not work on the stick-a-licious nano... until now. Battery Technology has created the u-Link, an adapter for old accessories. It fits snugly onto the bottom of the nano via its dock connector and headphone jack. Once attached, accessories (except for recording modules) can fit on the ports positioned on the booty of the u-Link.
Normally, I'd argue that the nano was made for just a quick run around the block. Apple made it small for a reason, right? It's much too pretty to be manhandled by old components twice its girth. But on the other hand, the u-Link makes the nano just as functional as the white bricks that we've come to know and
worship love without dropping $bling$ for new accessories that many us already own.
The u-Link will be available online soon and will retail for US$29. Would you be caught dead ghetto-fying your nano? | <urn:uuid:faa51851-1e5b-4c6a-986a-f873a1a006b3> | CC-MAIN-2016-40 | http://arstechnica.com/apple/2006/02/2934/ | 2016-09-28T15:46:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-40/segments/1474738661555.40/warc/CC-MAIN-20160924173741-00240-ip-10-143-35-109.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.968611 | 312 |
There’s not much to say about “Page One” that hasn’t already been said. I saw the feature-documentary at the L.A. Film Festival, and found myself agreeing with the reviews by Michael Kinsley for the NY Times and Kenneth Turan for the LA Times. Both found the work’s lack of a clear narrative – it jumps from topic to topic – a distraction. To me, it seemed like the film spreads itself too thin. It dives into juicy topics but doesn’t stick with any long enough to generate insightful, thoughtful commentary.
General audiences might appreciate this quick look into Dying Newspapers 101. But for journalists, it’s old news, so to speak, that the newspaper business model no longer works, and that papers face competition from blogs and sites like The Huffington Post and Newser. The documentary doesn’t offer any new perspectives or innovative insights.
Of course, it’s fun to watch New York Times reporters race around the newsroom. One looks like an octopus as he types on three computers at once. And the main character, David Carr, merits the spotlight. At first, I worried that the filmmakers would use this media writer with the wisecracks, throaty voice and “textured” past (drug addiction) as a gimmick. But Carr seems to offer the most concise and thought-provoking comments out of all the talking-heads.
I happened to attend the screening surrounded by an audience of journalists, including many from the L.A. Times. We all seemed to giggle and gawk at the same moments.
After the credits rolled, David Carr and James Rainey, L.A. Times media writer, stationed themselves in front of the audience to discuss the film. Rainey pointed out the parts he liked and probed Carr with new questions. Both seemed to enjoy the chance to continue the conversations that had only begun to spark up on screen.
The New York Times review concluded by recommending that viewers see “His Girl Friday,” a film from the 1930s about newspaper-men and -women caught in a battle of the sexes. I recommend watching “End Times,” a clip made by the Daily Show a few years back. Like “Page One,” it takes viewers inside the New York Times and interviews top editors. It seems to consider all the same questions, too — but in only five minutes. And is much funnier. | <urn:uuid:528426e5-5e01-48ad-bfd9-60af0d747505> | CC-MAIN-2017-51 | https://dainabethsolomon.com/2011/07/05/page-one/ | 2017-12-15T23:45:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-51/segments/1512948580416.55/warc/CC-MAIN-20171215231248-20171216013248-00585.warc.gz | en | 0.954991 | 515 |
State officials laud economic impact of the arts in the PA Wilds
For Immediate Release: April 8, 2019
State officials laud economic impact of the arts in the PA Wilds
Region recognized in National Governors Association report
HARRISBURG – A reception for the Creative Makers of the Pennsylvania Wilds – A Traveling Public Art Show on March 27 provided an opportunity for state officials to celebrate rural creative makers and the impact they have on the Commonwealth’s culture and economy. It was also a time to recognize the inclusion of the Wilds Cooperative of Pennsylvania as a prime model in the National Governors Association’s 2019 “Rural Prosperity through the Arts & Creative Sector” report.
Displayed in the Pennsylvania Capitol East Wing Rotunda Gallery for the month of March, the exhibit featured members of the Wilds Cooperative of Pennsylvania (WCO), a network of hundreds of artisans and place-based businesses from the 13-county region known as the Pennsylvania Wilds. The closing reception brought together around 50 people, including these rural artisans, representatives from various state agencies, and the general public. However, thousands more were exposed to the exhibit over the duration of the display.
A project of the Pennsylvania Wilds Center for Entrepreneurship, Inc. (PA Wilds Center), the exhibit was supported financially by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts (PCA).
Karl Blischke, PCA executive director, noted that the exhibit of images “highlights numerous artisans and their skill and craft in making their authentic and genuine crafts.” He applauded the PA Wilds Center’s foresight in “recognizing the cultural and economic impact of Pennsylvania Wilds creative makers.”
Blischke read a number of statistics gathered from the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis’s 2016 Arts and Cultural Production report to illustrate his point: $23 billion is added to the Commonwealth’s economy from the arts sector, 175,000 are working in the arts, and $11.2 billion is earned by these producers.
Blischke pointed to the achievement of the Pennsylvania Wilds being cited by the National Governors Association’s report, which is described as a new action guide that “offers research insights and lessons learned from states that are harnessing the power of the arts to drive rural prosperity.” This was the second time in 2019 that the work of the Pennsylvania Wilds Center was highlighted in a national study. In February, the Appalachian Regional Commission released its “Strengthening Economic Resilience in Appalachia” report, which looked at McKean County and the broader Pennsylvania Wilds as a case study “to understand how coal-impacted communities can transform and diversify their economies and build resilience against future economic shocks.”
“Thank you for helping these creative makers bring their products to market,” Blischke said, adding that creative makers and workers are a key part of the economy. “We should champion the state’s creative sector.”
The Creative Makers of the PA Wilds Exhibit has been a three-year effort by the PA Wilds Center, a nonprofit that has a mission of marrying conservation and economic development in a way that inspires the region’s rural communities. In practice, this work sees the nonprofit simultaneously promoting the lifestyle brand of the Pennsylvania Wilds as a premier outdoor recreation opportunity and working directly with hundreds of small businesses, artisans and producers that are tied to the landscape. The goal is to help these businesses, members of the WCO, to grow, find new market opportunities, and to ultimately stimulate local economies. This exhibit seeks to showcase the efforts of rural makers, bringing private processes to public spaces.
Many local partners are involved in the effort to grow nature and heritage tourism in the region as a way to create jobs, diversify local economies, inspire stewardship and improve quality of life, including the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR), Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development (DCED), and the PCA. Representatives from each agency spoke at the reception in late March, with a focus on the power of the arts, the power of place, and the power of travel in the Pennsylvania Wilds.
“My staff and I are proud to be building rural Pennsylvania’s largest network of creative entrepreneurs and makers. These folks influence our regional brand and visitor experience in a unique and powerful way and make our towns and villages more vibrant. They are an economic force in their own right – businesses in our network created 82 jobs over the last two years. And they also make our rural communities and the major employers there more competitive,” said Tataboline Enos, executive director of the PA Wilds Center.
“If you know the Wilds – it’s the size of Massachusetts, but only four percent of the state’s population calls it home. A lot of our makers make their stuff out of the public eye. We needed to capture it,” Enos said. She credited Managing Director Abbi Peters for taking the idea and turning it into reality, with the exhibit now featuring 49 artisans, nearly 200 images strong, and growing.
“Abbi Peters has a unique perspective and skill set for creating vehicles that help elevate and ultimately monetize the arts, which is an often overlooked economic powerhouse for the state,” said Enos.
Enos then read a statement from First Lady Frances Wolf. “By increasing awareness of artisans and craftspeople in the area, PA Wilds Center helps stimulate local economies, inspire stewardship, and create a cultural destination that celebrates the beauty of the commonwealth. I am certain that the creative makers involved in this exhibit will continue to inspire others for many years to come,” Wolf said.
When PA DCNR Secretary Cindy Adams Dunn approached the podium, she challenged the crowd to close their eyes and imagine the Pennsylvania Wilds: the water, the place, the beauty – a few hours away from busy Harrisburg.
“The place … is an important part of why the economics work for the creative makers,” Dunn said. She noted that flagship visitor destinations like the Elk County Visitor Center and Kinzua Bridge State Park Skywalk provide great opportunities for makers to grow their markets based on place. “The beauty of these jobs is that they’ll never be outsourced to China. The people are embedded in this place.”
Carrie Lepore, Deputy Secretary for Marketing, Tourism, and Film at the PA DCED, also spoke to the power of the Pennsylvania Wilds. “It is so amazing to me what has been accomplished in such a short amount of time. The Pennsylvania Wilds is a known entity and a point of pride.”
She went on to add: “Tourism is transformative. Tourism is bipartisan. Tourism is an economic power.”
It helps fund education, infrastructure, and other programs vital to citizens of the Commonwealth, she said.
“Investment in this industry is not an expense. It’s an investment in Pennsylvania’s history, people and places,” Lepore continued, pointing to a 3:1 return on investment for tourism spending. Looking at the exhibit around her, Lepore said the images capture “the heart and soul of the region. They reflect the culture and personality of the Pennsylvania Wilds.”
Concluding the afternoon remarks was PA Wilds Center’s Peters.
“I want to thank each of you in this room for your role in our work, from the makers in their studios to the policymakers in Harrisburg,” she said. “It’s wonderful to know that together we can connect not only these people in their communities, but to the larger marketplace.”
Bringing some of the images to life, the reception included light refreshments made by food artisans from the Wilds Cooperative of Pennsylvania who were featured in the exhibit, including maple-covered pecans and cashews from Miller’s Purely Maple and pretzel bark from Highland Chocolates, both out of Wellsboro, and coffee samples from Alabaster Coffee Roaster & Tea Co. of Williamsport.
The Pennsylvania Wilds region includes Cameron, northern Centre, Clarion, Clearfield, Clinton, Elk, Forest, Jefferson, Lycoming, McKean, Potter, Tioga and Warren counties.

By The Little Mulberry Project
The start of spring has provided a wonderful opportunity to explore the seasonal changes in colours, shapes and textures. Watching the blossoms arrive has been a particular favourite for my little ones – the delicate bursts of colour from the rough “boring” branches.
Enabling little ones to experience, investigate and get creative with our natural environment has wonderful benefits for their physical and emotional health. It also helps to foster a life-long appreciation and connectedness with our natural world.
We decided to create our own blossoming branches with some assemblage art (3D collage). We collected branches and explored different ways to attach colours like blossoms – painting some branches and wrapping others in wool, beads and painted pasta. Threading is a wonderful fine motor skill so we carried on threading the leftover beads and pasta into fun necklaces.
- Branches, twigs and pinecones
- Beads or other colourful loose parts
- Coloured Wool
- String (or craft wire)
- Take a nice spring walk to find some branches, twigs and pinecones.
- Let little hands paint different pasta shapes and set aside to dry.
- Paint or decorate branches, twigs and pinecones by wrapping in coloured wool.
- Thread dried painted pasta, beads and any other loose parts on to string or extra wool (craft wire for bigger little ones would add some extra structure to the collage).
- Start assembling the blossom branch by wrapping the threaded pasta and beads around the decorated branches.
- Place on the table as a lovely spring centrepiece!

At Gaslamp Chiropractic, our interdisciplinary health team is fully committed to being one of the area's leaders in innovative healthcare that always puts the "whole person" ahead of the disease, illness, or injury. We're proud to offer a variety of chiropractic and medical services that can help each patient reach their full potential for health and wellness, both inside and out. Indeed, we do much more than diagnose and treat conditions like neck pain, back pain, and headaches or migraine. We also provide beauty and skin treatments that can improve your look and your confidence. If you live in or near Gaslamp District, Downtown San Diego, Little Italy, Marina, or East Village and have been looking for ways to improve the health and appearance of your skin, our chiropractic facility may have just the thing for you: safe, effective, and affordable Botox injections.
Botox is a safe and effective medical treatment for wrinkles and fine lines on your skin. The medication is derived (strangely enough) from bacteria that causes botulism and is is applied directly to specific facial muscles via injections. Don't worry--Botox injections won't cause you get botulism! Instead, they work to smooth out wrinkles by blocking nerve signals that are normally sent to the muscles of your face. This decreases facial muscle activity and promotes a smoother, more youthful appearance by reducing the "squeezing" of the muscles around your eyes, forehead, and mouth that otherwise produce the most common types of wrinkles--from Crow's feet to brow lines to frown lines. Our downtown San Diego chiropractors and nurse practitioner have seen impressive results for our patients after even just one treatment.
At Gaslamp Chiropractic, we have a nurse practitioner on staff who is licensed and certified to provide Botox and other medical treatments that rejuvenate and revitalize your skin, including Juvederm, Voluma, and chemical peels. Here's what to expect when you come to our Downtown San Diego clinic for Botox injections:
Most of our patients from Gaslamp District, Downtown San Diego, Little Italy, Marina, and East Village notice an improvement in the appearance of their skin within a few days, with the best effects noted after about 2 to 6 weeks. It's interesting to note that Botox injections have been used medically (not just cosmetically) for decades in the treatment of various other conditions including severe muscle spasms, severe underarm sweating, overactive bladder syndrome, and even severe migraine headaches.
Botox injections are incredibly effective and safe, however results are temporary. Most of our patients notice that after about 3 months, the effects of their Botox treatment wears off, and they often choose to reschedule another appointment.
Certain people may not be ideal candidates for Botox injections, including people with heart disease, breathing problems, bleeding disorders, and certain autoimmune and/or neurological disorders like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS or Lou Gehrig's disease) and myasthenia gravis.
Like any medical procedure, cosmetic use of Botox injections should always be provided by a trained and licensed healthcare professional to help reduce the risk of complications. You may notice mild side effects in the days or weeks following your Botox injection, including muscle weakness, dry mouth, headache, blurry vision, cold or flu-like symptoms, and redness or swelling at the injection site. If any of these side effects persist, or if you notice any rare but potentially severe adverse reactions--including chest pain, difficulty breathing, hoarse voice, or significant swelling and pain, especially in an area not injected with Botox--you should call your doctor right away.
It's important to remember that virtually any procedure carries at least some risk, and that our interdisciplinary staff does everything it takes to ensure that your experience with Botox injections goes smoothly--no pun intended!
Gaslamp Chiropractic is one of our community's premier health and med spa facilities that offers a widge range of chiropractic and medical services to meet your health needs and goals.

Attorneys for all sides are still reviewing the court’s decision to deny harness-race licenses.
By LAURE CIOFFI
VINDICATOR PENNSYLVANIA BUREAU
NEW CASTLE, Pa. — It appears it’s back to the Pennsylvania Harness Racing Commission for two groups vying for the state’s last harness racing license.
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court issued a ruling this week upholding the earlier decision to deny a racetrack license for proposals in both Lawrence and Beaver counties.
However, the court’s decision stated that both could reapply for reconsideration by the harness racing commission.
New Castle businessman Carmen Shick, who along with his two siblings has proposed a race track and casino near the Ohio border on U.S. Route 422, said his attorneys were still studying the decision and had not advised yet how to proceed.
“Obviously we are disappointed with the Supreme Court’s decision. However, we are encouraged in its finding that guilt by ancestry is frowned on,” Shick said.
One of the main reasons the harness racing commission rejected the application for Shick’s Bedford Downs was alleged organized crime ties to his deceased grandfather.
Valley View Downs
Shick appealed that decision to Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court and received a favorable decision, but the state harness racing commission and other potential track operator, Valley View Downs, took the matter to the state supreme court.
Valley View Downs spokesman Rick Kelly was encouraged by the supreme court decision.
Valley View, proposed for Beaver County, Pa., had been rejected because of problems with the track’s design and location.
“We are prepared to address any of the commission’s concerns regarding the easily remediable site and track design issues,” Kelly said.
Valley View Downs is owned by Centaur Inc., which recently bought full interest in Hoosier Park in Anderson, Ind.
Anton Leppler, executive director of the state harness racing commission, said the commission’s attorneys were still reviewing the court decision Tuesday and the commission has not decided how it will proceed. | <urn:uuid:b0071c83-befc-49ee-95be-fa31a9aaa122> | CC-MAIN-2015-22 | http://www.vindy.com/news/2007/jul/04/battle-continues-for-racing-licenses/ | 2015-06-03T04:10:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-22/segments/1433195036618.23/warc/CC-MAIN-20150601214356-00061-ip-10-180-206-219.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.974316 | 445 |
When a consumer declines to buy a product, or a manufacturer opts not to produce, they are practicing source reduction or waste prevention. This, the “reduce” part of the reduce/reuse/recycle “mantra,” refers to any method used by a generator (the consumer or the producer of a product) to reduce the amount of solid waste requiring recycling, composting, incineration, or disposal. In other words, if it doesn’t exist (or you don’t buy it), you don’t have to decide how to keep it out of the waste stream.
Source reduction strategies include
- buying bulk foods
- avoiding single use items
- renting, borrowing or sharing tools that are occasionally needed
- design products to use fewer raw materials in production, last longer &/or be reusable
- buy or produce non-toxic products
Oregon’s Waste Reduction Hierarchy
Oregon law emphasizes the critical importance of waste reduction, meaning our combined efforts to prevent waste, reuse materials, compost organic waste, and recycle materials to reduce the disposal of waste.
The Oregon Legislature made its first comprehensive commitment to waste reduction in 1983, when it passed the Opportunity to Recycle Act. The Oregon Recycling Act of 1991 strengthened that commitment. These laws established solid waste management policies and designated jurisdictions responsible for the recovery (diversion) of waste from landfills.
The Acts also recognized that some waste reduction practices produce more environmental benefits than others. They affirmed that, in order to conserve energy and natural resources, we must prioritize reducing waste generation (recovered materials and landfilled materials) over simply diverting material from the landfills. In other words, waste prevention is more important than material recovery. The following hierarchy, set by the Legislature, reflects this priority.
- Reduce the amount of solid waste generated
- Reuse material for the purpose for which it was intended
- Recycle material that cannot be reused
- Compost material that cannot be reused or recycled (added in 1991)
- Recover energy from solid waste that cannot be reused, recycled, or composted
- Dispose by landfilling, or other method approved by the state, any solid waste that cannot be reused, recycled, composed or from which energy cannot be recovered | <urn:uuid:eebd2102-f201-4aa8-85f9-f73845fb5d64> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://jocomasterrecycler.org/reduce/ | 2021-02-27T03:03:46Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178358064.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20210227024823-20210227054823-00402.warc.gz | en | 0.914648 | 476 |
NEW LONDON -- A former Catholic school teacher accused of sexting with a 14-year-old student is scheduled to go on trial later this month.
Jury selection is underway in the trial of 31-year-old Robert Pfeiffer scheduled for April 22. The Day of New London reports Saturday that the former Academy of the Holy Family history teacher turned down an undisclosed plea agreement and will go to trial.
Authorities say Pfeiffer resigned from the Sprague school in 2010 after friends of the girl saw the messages and threatened to report him. The Hebron man has been free on bail since his arrest last April. | <urn:uuid:43198bfa-800e-4910-aa59-892079e9b2ca> | CC-MAIN-2014-52 | http://www.nhregister.com/general-news/20130406/former-catholic-school-teacher-accused-of-sexting-student-will-go-to-trial-3 | 2014-12-20T20:50:04Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-52/segments/1418802770399.32/warc/CC-MAIN-20141217075250-00015-ip-10-231-17-201.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.977844 | 130 |

A wanted man who failed to appear in court for allegedly slitting another man's throat has been caught after police say he tried to commit another crime.
Larry Niko Mausali was caught by Parkersburg Police officers around 8 o'clock Thursday morning.
Captain Keith Roberts says officers were dispatched to an attempted burglary on Harrison Avenue.
The owner of the home gave a description of the suspect matching that of Mausali's.
Captain Roberts says around the same time, dispatchers received another call from a citizen who recognized Mausali and knew he was wanted by police.
Officers caught up with Mausali near 17th and Race Streets where he took off and was later caught.
He was arraigned in Magistrate Court and charged with a felony for breaking and entering, and two misdemeanors for fleeing and carrying a concealed weapon.
Circuit Court officials say Mausali is set to appear there sometime next week.
He is currently behind bars in lieu of a $55,000 bond.
Updated: Sept. 3 9:12am
According to the Parkersburg Police Department, Larry Niko Mausali has been captured.
He is being arraigned in circuit court this morning.
Stay tuned to WTAP.COM and WTAP News @ Noon for more details.
In this week's edition of the Mid-Ohio Valley's Most Wanted we have for you a Parkersburg man wanted for Unlawful Assault and Failing to Appear.
Parkersburg Police Chief Gerald Board says, in December, Larry Niko Mausali got into an altercation with another man in a Parkersburg parking lot and then Mausali put a knife to his throat and cut it.
Chief Board says Mausali was charged with Malicious Assault, but later pleaded guilty to a lesser charge of Unlawful Assault.
Mausali posted bond and was put on house arrest until his sentencing Monday, but Mausali never showed up to court.
"Anytime you use a weapon towards another human being I consider them dangerous, so I wouldn't try to apprehend him, just give the information to us and let us handle that end of it," says Chief Gerald Board.
Mausali faces two to five years behind bars for his Unlawful Assault charge.
Chief Board believes Mausali could still be in the area.
So, if you have any information on where he could be, please call the Parkersburg Police Department at 304-424-8444.
You can catch the next edition of the Mid-Ohio Valley's Most Wanted next Wednesday, on WTAP News at 6. | <urn:uuid:a93d7e8f-2c41-493f-8f65-0649a28f0dc4> | CC-MAIN-2016-26 | http://www.thenewscenter.tv/home/headlines/56748117.html | 2016-06-29T01:51:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-26/segments/1466783397562.76/warc/CC-MAIN-20160624154957-00046-ip-10-164-35-72.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.967568 | 556 |

The majority of people eat with their eyes first, so a good cook will make the food look great when they present it. This is also true when it comes to the kitchen, so decorating this room has become very important. Cooking in a dull and lifeless area can make food preparation into a necessary chore, but bringing a kitchen to life can inspire even a novice cook to work wonders with food.
There are many staples in modern kitchens such as a refrigerator, stove and sink. Each of these is a functional piece, and few cooks would want to be without any of them. Stainless steel is the current trend in appliances, so it is up to the cook to find kitchen accessories to provide color to a kitchen that might be considered dull. There are many options available, and cooks around the world have found another type of creativity in this area.
Pots, spoons and spatulas are an important part of cooking, and they used to be consigned to drawers or cabinets near the stove. Modern cooks have found they come in a rainbow of colors, and hanging them on the wall is a great way to decorate with pieces that will see a great deal of use. Their shapes may be functional, but the vibrant colors make them an asset during a hectic meal preparation.
Bowls, mixers and even salt and pepper shakers have now become part of the decoration in modern kitchens. While some of them do reside in cabinets between meals, their appearance is a sign that cooking is underway. Bright colors and fanciful shapes help enhance the atmosphere surrounding the creativity that goes into cooking a delightful meal. Each accessory adds its own particular form or flavor to the process, and they give modern cooks a reason to continue their hunt for the perfect meal. | <urn:uuid:da4e2e4d-6141-47af-9aca-546058788041> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | http://www.threlkeldweb.co.uk/decorating-with-kitchen-accessories | 2024-03-02T17:39:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947475833.51/warc/CC-MAIN-20240302152131-20240302182131-00591.warc.gz | en | 0.970719 | 355 |
Washington, 31 October 1996 (RFE/RL) -- A recent paper by a senior World Bank economist says that as the nations of Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union stabilize and transform their economies to market-based systems, they can expect to see investment increase by five percent or more per year over the next decade.
Economist Zia Qureshi says that total investment in these countries "could average a little over $200 billion a year over the next 10 years (in 1997 dollars.)"
Qureshi was writing about the adequacy of the global supply of capital and asked: Is there enough to go around?
The paper concludes that there is indeed, but says the savings necessary to make enough available is not automatic.
"The greatest influence on world capital markets will be the savings in industrial countries, which account for about three-quarters of the world's total annual savings," the paper says.
"Unfortunately, the average gross savings rate in OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development) countries has fallen by about 5 percentage points of GDP (gross domestic product) since the early 1970s."
Saving in developing countries won't automatically rise to meet the need either, the paper argues, noting that institutions conducive to higher savings will be needed, underpinned by stable economies with fiscal discipline.
The paper concludes that in the end, most countries must look to domestic resources and savings to finance their increased investment. And the bank projects that real gross domestic investment in developing countries is expected to rise by about 7 percent per year from now to the year 2005.

That has prompted the United States to plan a crackdown on the theft of trade secrets as well as the piracy of intellectual properties such as CDs and computer software.
A bill signed by President Bill Clinton three weeks ago received almost no notice, but institutes a major change in the American legal arsenal by making the theft or misappropriation of trade secrets or intellectual property rights a violation of federal law.
The law includes not only fines of up to $5 million on individuals and $10 million for organizations, and prison sentences of up to 15 years, but also provides for, according Clinton, "criminal forfeiture of property used in or derived from economic espionage or trade secret thefts, and preserves the confidentiality of trade secrets in court proceedings."
The ability to confiscate property from those convicted of these crimes has been a major element of the U.S. war on illegal drugs, putting millions of dollars into government coffers in recent years.
Clinton said trade secrets are "an integral part of virtually every sector of our economy and are essential to maintaining the health and competitiveness of critical industries operating in the United States." He said companies foreign and domestic have been losing "billions of dollars in lost revenues" because U.S. laws were antiquated and could not deal with modern computer theft and piracy.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce welcomes the legislation, but says it needs to be even tougher. An executive of the chamber says it is a "good but incomplete first step" and that next year the chamber will push for a new law allowing victimized companies to recover damages in civil suits.
American Hopes To Expand ATM Network Across Region
Michael Brown, the American entrepreneur behind the Euronet BV independent network of automatic bank teller machines (ATMs) based in Warsaw, says his firm hopes to install 2,000 of the machines in Hungary, Poland and other Central European countries before the end of the century.
Brown told the "Wall Street Journal" recently that Eastern and Central Europeans still tend to buy almost everything with cash. But he said use of the ATM system -- making cash available at convenient locations around the clock, as well as allowing the direct purchase of goods at cooperating merchants -- will rise dramatically as more machines become available.
The general manager of Citibank's Hungarian retail bank, Atul Vorha, says there is already "an almighty rush into bank cards."
Euronet will have a busy four years if it hopes to achieve the goal of 2,000 machines. According to the journal, Euronet currently has only 81 ATM machines in Hungary and 19 in Poland. | <urn:uuid:4b972aaf-1182-4a12-b7a4-369887f04f84> | CC-MAIN-2016-50 | http://www.rferl.org/a/1081953.html | 2016-12-03T11:55:14Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-50/segments/1480698540928.63/warc/CC-MAIN-20161202170900-00382-ip-10-31-129-80.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.950883 | 903 |

Each case proceeded through lower courts, with judges ruling in favor of the gay couples who were denied services.
Then, last year, the U.S. Supreme Court sided with the cake baker in a 7-2 ruling in the Colorado case, known as Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission. After that, the nation’s highest court returned the florist case to the Washington State Supreme Court, asking the lower court to review its earlier ruling and decide whether it must reverse it in light of the Masterpiece Cakeshop decision.
On Thursday, Washington’s nine justices gave their unanimous answer: Thanks for the note, but we think we got it right the first time.
It’s a decision that didn’t surprise legal experts, who say that the Washington case — filed against Barronelle Stutzman, the owner of Arlene’s Flowers in Richland — has less in common with the Colorado case than it might appear at first glance.
“The Cakeshop case was really very, very interesting when it came out, because the public perception of the case was very different from the actual legal ruling of the case,” said Theodore Myhre, a senior lecturer at the University of Washington School of Law. “The perception of the case was that this was basically religious freedom triumphing over gay marriage and anti-discrimination laws. And that’s not what the Cakeshop ruling did at all.”
In that case, the U.S. Supreme Court sided with Jack Phillips, the owner of Masterpiece Cakeshop in Lakewood, Colo., primarily because of the specifics of how he was treated by the Colorado Civil Rights Commission.
In essence, the high court set aside the lower-court ruling against Phillips not because the justices agreed that he should have the right to refuse to serve a same-sex wedding. The justices ruled that way because, they said, members of the state Civil Rights Commission showed unacceptable hostility toward Phillips’ religion when reviewing the complaint, and did not consider the case “with the religious neutrality that the Constitution requires.”
In particular, the high court took issue with one Colorado commissioner’s comment that, “Freedom of religion and religion has been used to justify all kinds of discrimination throughout history, whether it be slavery, whether it be the Holocaust.” The court further objected to the same commissioner’s subsequent statement: “It is one of the most despicable pieces of rhetoric that people can use ... to use their religion to hurt others.”
By contrast, in the Arlene's Flowers case, Washington’s high court justices said they “painstakingly reviewed the record for any sign of intolerance” — either by themselves or by the Benton County Superior Court — and found nothing.
“After this review, we are confident that the two courts gave full and fair consideration to this dispute and avoided animus toward religion,” the court’s decision from Thursday reads. “We therefore find no reason to change our original decision.”
Myhre, the senior lecturer at the UW law school, said it is “a pretty uncontested principle” that businesses covered by statewide public accommodation laws — such as the Washington State Law Against Discrimination — don’t get to choose who to serve based on their owners’ viewpoints.
“When you open your business to the public and you profit from the public, you have to not discriminate against the public,” Myhre said. “You can’t hang a sign in your window and say, ‘No Blacks and no Jews.'”
At the same time, the Masterpiece Cakeshop ruling was so narrow in its scope that it largely skirted the greater question: whether the right to freedom of religion means business owners can decline to provide creative services for same-sex weddings, said Scott Skinner-Thompson, an associate professor of law at the University of Colorado..
“My view of a lot of the language in Masterpiece is that it did affirm that anti-discrimination laws, generally speaking, do not violate merchants’ First Amendment religious freedom or expressive rights. But that was not a holding,” Skinner-Thompson said, noting that the high court decided in favor of the baker for a completely different legal reason. “By deciding on those narrower grounds, they were in some ways punting on the more difficult issue."
Attorneys with the Alliance Defending Freedom, who are representing Stutzman, said they will appeal the Washington court’s latest ruling, and once again ask the U.S. Supreme Court to take the case. John Bursch, the group’s senior counsel and vice president of appellate advocacy, said Stutzman’s lawyers will reassert their earlier position that the government cannot force someone to complete a task involving creative expression — such as building custom floral arrangements for a same-sex wedding — if doing so goes against their religious beliefs.
“I never turned down anyone because of who they are,” Stutzman said during a press phone call Thursday.
It’s unclear whether the U.S. Supreme Court will decide to take up the Arlene's Flowers case this time.
Kellye Testy, a law professor and former dean of the UW School of Law, said the thoroughness of the Washington state Supreme Court’s opinion from Thursday leads her to think “it would be less likely” that the U.S. Supreme Court would decide to take up the Arlene's Flower’s case going forward. “It looked to me that Washington state did exactly what the U.S. Supreme Court asked them to do,” she said, referencing how the Washington justices scoured the court record for instances of animosity toward religion.
Yet the makeup of the high court has changed since last year. Since former Justice Anthony Kennedy, who wrote the Masterpiece Cakeshop decision, has been replaced on the high court by Justice Brett Kavanaugh, there could be greater interest in taking up cases dealing with topics of religious freedom, Skinner-Thompson said.
To put those questions to rest, the high court also could review other lower-court cases involving business owners declining to serve gay couples in Oregon or Arizona.
For their part, the two Washington men whom Stutzman denied floral services in 2013 said they were “thrilled” with Thursday’s ruling by Washington’s high court, and did not mention possible future court proceedings.
“Discrimination hurts, especially while planning what should be one of the happiest times of your life,” Curt Freed and Robert Ingersoll said in a statement. “We hope that this ruling will prevent what happened to us from happening to others.” | <urn:uuid:c236c4be-286e-47cf-ae37-d0db1f532df3> | CC-MAIN-2023-06 | https://crosscut.com/2019/06/why-was-gay-wedding-case-turning-out-differently-colorados | 2023-01-28T07:41:22Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-06/segments/1674764499524.28/warc/CC-MAIN-20230128054815-20230128084815-00265.warc.gz | en | 0.960804 | 1,419 |

On display for four months at the Boston Society of Architects’ exhibition gallery, Balancing Act: Urbanism & Emerging Technologies was an interactive public exhibition that provides a thoughtful lens through which to examine current conditions of our urban environments and the future of emerging technologies in the design and development of global cities. The culmination of three years of design, research, and curation in partnership with organizations and institutions around the world, Balancing Act poses a series of questions that engage the community in conversations on how we can balance emerging technologies with the human experience to suggest a roadmap for making our cities more livable, equitable, and sustainable. The exhibits were sourced from future-thinking scientists, architects, and innovators and comprise 20 individual initiatives, two interactive/multimedia features, and three extended studies into what we have called “urbanistic imaginations.” The exhibit spanned the full Space gallery, including interstitial spaces for question-and-answer bulletins and hands-on exploration of analytical technology. The project was the result of a successful competition entry to exhibit at Space.
Featuring a deliberate array of initiatives, such as autonomous automobiles, UAV (unmanned aerial vehicles), and hyperloop, the exhibit proposed jarring new possibilities that may fundamentally change how we design and live in cities. The project earned the participation of many different contributors, including such groups as Foster + Partners, MIT Senseable City Lab, Virgin Hyperloop One, City Form Lab, and several more. Through drawings, models, digital media, and other objects, the exhibit is a smart, vibrant, and urban-future-ready look at what may be next.
This exhibit, designed to travel to other cities, brings intangible initiatives to human space and scale, makes unheard-of concepts understandable and accessible to all, and embraces a full range of communication forms. CBT interviewed architects, students, inventors, scholars, and featured a large-format video of their thoughts on how technology will change their – and our – lives. The exhibit used highly instructive and illustrated posters, interactive media projections, prototypes of future vehicles, and three-dimensional models to express ambitious views of what will come.

If you are the family members member or friend that has therefore graciously volunteered to host a baby shower for the expectant mother, then you possess probably realized just how costly it can be to sponsor a shower these days. In this article, I’ve place jointly a list of some of my favorite exclusive baby shower games that are easy on the budget, but still a heap of fun to play.In addition, I’ve also included some of my favorite assets for free printable games along with links to materials and decorations from Amazon. I like the parties in a package….they take all the guesswork out of decorating and have saved me a ton of period in the past.If you are in the age bracket where you’ve been attending lots of baby showers, chances are that you’ve run into this popular game along the way. The idea of this game can be for every person to think how big mommy’s tummy is certainly all the way around. The host should purchase some cheap toilet paper, yarn, or thread that can be utilized for the measurement. You pass the roll of toilet paper (or yarn with a scissors) around to all the guests and instruct them to tear or cut off the length that they think will measure the same as mommy’s waste line. After everyone has their piece of paper or yarn, have mommy stand in the middle of the room and have each guest wrap their string around mommy’s tummy. The guest that has the length of paper, string, or yarn that is closest to the right size wins the game.Buy (or borrow) about 15 small baby items such as pacifiers, baby socks, rattle, baby shampoo, etc., and place the items on a large tray or cookie sheet. Give each of the guests a blank piece of paper along with pen or pencil. The hostess should take the tray of items and quickly walk around to each of the guests (stopping for simply a few seconds at each location so the guest can have a quick look). Then the hostess should cover the tray up or take it into a separate room. Using a timer with about two minutes, the guests should write down all the items that they saw on the tray. The guest that gets the most items on the list wins.Since this game is so popular, guests often know what’s coming so here is a little twist that can get some laughs and giggles. The hostess parades around the tray just as was suggested in the above game rules. However, instead of asking the guests to write down what was on the tray. You make up a series of questions about the hostess carrying the tray (about what she was wearing). For example, was the hostess wearing earrings, what color was the hostess’s shirt, how many rings was the hostess wearing, what color were the hostess’s shoes, etc. The guest that paid attention to the hostess and got the most answers correct wins the game.This game is one of my all time favorites and it is a great choice for co-ed baby showers. Your guests will be rolling on the floor laughing at one another. For this game, you’ll need small miniature sized baby bottles that you can buy either online or at a local retailer. If you plan to give them to Mommy after the shower, you should get BPA free bottles. You should have one bottle per guest. Give each guest a bottle and ask them to fill it with the beverage of their choice (beer, water, soda, punch). Before starting the game, make sure each guest has filled their bottle to the line. Alternatively, you can just fill all the bottles with beer or punch and then hand them out to your guests. Once each guest has a bottle, you are ready to go. The winner is the person who drinks the contents of their bottle the fastest so just yell, ready, set, go and see who wins. Be sure to have your video camera poised and ready to record this funny game.If you’ve ever had the pleasure of changing a baby boy’s diaper, you know that it is necessary to move quickly because it is only a matter of time before he “springs a leak.” This game is a great choice when mom has a bouncing little baby boy on the way. Divide your guests into teams of two giving each team a blue latex balloon filled with water (try to fill all the balloons with the same amount of water to keep the game fair), some diaper pins and a classic cloth diaper. One team member will be blindfolded and they will be tasked with putting the diaper on the balloon. The other team member must poke a hole in the top of the balloon and then direct her blind-folded partner (speaking, but no hands) to get the diaper on the balloon. The first team to successfully diaper the baby boy balloon wins the game…of course, they must finish before the balloon fully deflates.My favorite idea for a baby shower centerpiece is a baby diaper cake. If you aren’t familiar with the term, it is essentially a nonedible cake that is constructed from either disposable or cloth diapers. Normally, you can add in small baby items such as booties, pacifiers, comb and brush sets, and more. It does double-duty as the centerpiece at the shower as well as your gift to the expectant mother.You can either make your own diaper cake or buy one online when you search for Baby Baskets. They sell tons of diaper cakes in various themes so you should be able to find one which fits in with your theme and color scheme perfectly. The cake shown to the right is their Sweet Safari Baby Diaper Cake for a girl baby shower.Yet another LOL baby shower game that is a great choice for couples showers too! Your guests will finish up with messy faces so get your video camera ready for this one. Break the guests into teams of two and give each person a sizable bib (I like the big plastic bibs you can buy for a lobster party). Team members sit across from one another and they are both blindfolded. Each person has a little jar of applesauce, bananas or other tolerable baby food along with a spoon. The pair must feed applesauce to one another once you say ready, set, go. The first team to finish all the applesauce or baby food wins.To comment on this article, you must sign in or sign up and post utilizing a Unique Shower Curtains

The professional grade hand-held leaf blower manufactured by Efco does a great job of clearing leaves and other debris that collects on your lawn. Operating on the highest specifications, the Efco SA3000 30.5 cc Petrol Leaf Blower generates a jet of air that approaches 700 m³/h. The powerful jet reduces the amount of time spent finishing a lawn care project. Although Efco designed the leaf blower for large residential properties, the machine operates just as effectively on commercial plots. The very low noise level keeps your neighbors happy, as you can blow leaves well past dark and not disturb anyone on the block. The reliable engine starts in all types of weather conditions.
In addition to the powerful jet, this leaf blower operates on a powerful 305cc two-stroke engine that lasts 10 times the life spans of lower priced petrol leaf blowers. Something this powerful must place a lot of stress on your arms, back, and shoulders. The fact is the Efco SA 3000 30.5 cc Petrol Leaf Blower possesses an ergonomically friendly design that balances the weight across your body. Low vibrations create a comfortable leaf blower that allows you to complete jobs uninterrupted.
Efco claims the leaf blower presents no weight issues, but many customers beg to differ. In fact, the biggest problem with the Efco SA 3000 30.5 cc Petrol Leaf Blower lies with the heavy materials used to construct the machine. Moreover, the company claim that the leaf blower allows users to work with one hand seems a bit preposterous. Users love the efficency of the leaf blower, but the weight of the machine increases the time spent blowing leaves.
· Powerful two-stroke engine
· Generates a powerful jet blast
· Low vibrations
· Design balances weight across body
· Very low noise level
· Too heavy for some users
The combination of a powerful engine and air flow unit makes this leaf blower appear to be a no brainer for your lawn care equipment inventory. Lack of vibrations and low noise levels works great for both you and your neighbors. The design of the machine balances weight across your body. Therein lies the only issue with the leaf blower. The heavy materials used to manufacture the leaf blower produce a heavy machine that some users can’t handle.>>> Click Here For Pricing & Reviews on Amazon <<< | <urn:uuid:3389ae5b-0d14-4b1d-9d49-e8c2dbf9649a> | CC-MAIN-2019-22 | https://lawnmowerwizard.com/petrol-leaf-blower-reviews/efco-sa-2700-petrol-leaf-blower-review/ | 2019-05-22T17:11:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-22/segments/1558232256887.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20190522163302-20190522185302-00303.warc.gz | en | 0.908872 | 489 |
