Isn’t that the truth?! Things are things are things, but people – well – you don’t want to put them on a shelf to collect dust. They are much more fun! And it’s time to think about those things we are thankful for and by things, I believe I will make sure to mention peopley things. Whatcha think about that?
And awaaaaaay we go!!
184.108.40.206.5. Getting Away – We got away for a night to visit family in Mount Airy. We enjoyed taking walks down the hallways of the retirement community, taking pictures at entryways and in the various places for people to commune. There were several trees, all uniquely decorated. It helped bring on the spirit. We enjoyed a lovely visit with headed back home earlier than planned. Icy roads were predicted for this morning, so we thought it best to head back last night. It was a lovely drive back with very little traffic and we are grateful that was uneventful.
6. Six Sentence Story is always a great challenge. This time, I decided to think of the season and this is what I came up with: True Hearts are Never Absent I am grateful for Denise’s devotion with prompting us and challenging us each week.
7. Wedding! My great nephew is getting married this weekend. He lives in Alabama and they are going away to all things Harry Potter! I am very happy for them as they embark on new adventures together.
8. Education – As I am working on my latest book, I am finding that there are areas I want to focus on a little more in depth than originally planned. I had a pop-up opportunity to learn some new information and meet some really nice people who could be a resource. So, new connections, as well.
9. Poet Community – This weekend is the party for the poets in this area and I look forward. While I have read poetry to people before, it’s been a while. Maybe it’s time to break out of my comfort zone. Especially since I have been asked to read the poetry of a famous poet. I just don’t know who until they hand me the poem. Surprises!!
10. You! I am thankful for you coming here and paying a visit. Perhaps you would like to join in and add your post of thankfuls. | <urn:uuid:99c6a3d8-e5d9-4909-b816-a180b0bb77da> | CC-MAIN-2021-04 | https://prolificpulse.blog/2019/12/13/ten-things-of-thankful-december-13/?replytocom=3076 | 2021-01-22T13:43:03Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-04/segments/1610703529331.99/warc/CC-MAIN-20210122113332-20210122143332-00009.warc.gz | en | 0.978504 | 498 |
This was the type of novel that got better the further in you got as the plot evolved into a grander picture. The first half is pretty elusive, but as it all starts to fall into place you can’t help but like it. Also, you can’t help but believe in fate and how things in the universe happen for a reason, how two people could find each other face-to-face after many years have built up between them and they still feel that instant pull of attraction for one another. It gives you faith that everyone has someone out there.
I did like how the story was told from two different time periods and that we didn’t exactly know it until the story started weaving itself together with the clues the author started feeding to his readers. The coming together of the two times seemed a bit outlandish and cliche, but it actually worked in the way the novel was written. I loved the importance of the tape and the shell and how both held Ryan and Eve together, even while they were apart. Great story. | <urn:uuid:f0893001-e747-453e-a16c-713a1a04d82b> | CC-MAIN-2018-09 | https://lesliemdrake.wordpress.com/2014/08/ | 2018-02-25T23:03:46Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-09/segments/1518891817523.0/warc/CC-MAIN-20180225225657-20180226005657-00684.warc.gz | en | 0.989515 | 214 |
Three weeks after the 2011 Wyoming Legislative Session began, the Joint Appropriation Committee, or JAC, has released its $667.3 million supplemental budget bill. The bill, known as HB0001 is available to read on the Wyoming Legislature's website, a link is here:
The bill, which the JAC approved on February 2nd, includes $215.3 million in new General Fund spending, $196.4 million in federal funds, $183.4 million from the School Capital Construction Account, and $72.2 million in other funds. Co-Chair of the JAC, Representative Rosie Berger, comments.
The House and Senate are tentatively scheduled to begin debate on HB0001 and identical SF0001 – General Government Appropriations, commonly known as the “Budget Bill” on February 14th, when each body will receive identical “mirror” copies of the bill to debate. So, should the document be renamed the “Valentine's Day Bill?”
Does Berger anticipate any amendments?
The Legislature adopted the current $3 billion General Fund budget during the Budget Session in March of last year. That budget is effective for two years.
State agencies have the option of submitting supplemental budget requests during a General Session for consideration by the Governor, who then makes recommendations to the JAC for the year’s supplemental budget. | <urn:uuid:567f5dbd-2586-497f-97b6-e30cb7d6eab3> | CC-MAIN-2016-22 | http://www.sheridanmedia.com/print/news/state-supplemental-budget-released14599 | 2016-05-30T05:54:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-22/segments/1464049288709.66/warc/CC-MAIN-20160524002128-00147-ip-10-185-217-139.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.948709 | 280 |
I have been asking for help on this matter. I was struck by a vehicle in May 2011
Id has damaged my life and caused extreme hardship. My life is getting extremely miserable and I have not been getting the proper care and attention I need. I am literally starving cause my benefits have been revoked. I want this organization investigated. I have talked to others and coalitions are made about this agency.

As green building consultants and verifiers, we are intimately involved in single family and multifamily projects through the entire construction cycle. Fortunately for us, and much of the industry, construction has not been hit as hard (yet) as other industries, many of which came to a sudden dead stop in the last few weeks. Being able to work, however, does not keep us from being concerned about our employee’s health and well being when they are on job site.
We are currently not working in any occupied buildings and are establishing policies on how to handle our regular site inspections on all projects. Travel is becoming an issue for our team. When more than one team member needs to be at a site inspection, typically when we are doing final inspections with duct and envelope leakage testing, they are driving separately to maintain appropriate distance by not sharing a vehicle. This is manageable for local projects, however for long day trips, our travel expenses will rise significantly. Overnight travel is another challenge to overcome. Flying to remote projects is currently off the table, and a general concern about staying in hotels is leading some of our team to consider camping out on long trips. Thankfully we are in a good season for that activity.
Looking for alternatives
A remote video inspection policy was recently established by Home Innovation for NGBS projects, almost simultaneously with an internal procedure we created and tested. We expect to be able to implement these procedures on certain upcoming projects to further limit contact with other people on job sites.
Like many other businesses, we are conducting much of our work remotely, holding video conferences in lieu of weekly in person staff meetings. Most of our multifamily pre-construction project meetings have been web conferences for quite a while, as project teams are scattered around the country, but we have transitioned to web conferences for our local single-family projects recently, which can be challenging for first-time green builders we work with—time will tell how well this works out.
Getting others to behave
When we do visit projects, it challenging to maintain appropriate distances from others. Some contractors are taking the Corona virus threat seriously, using safe practices consistently, while others are more casual. I have found myself backing away from others who don’t give me my six-foot space on recent site visits.
One current project is to establish requirements for contractors to follow in order for us to provide them site inspections. This policy is expected to include requirements such as everyone within six feet of our team must wear a cloth mask or respirator, no other work going on in the areas we are inspecting, and confirmation that the job site has it’s own robust virus safety protocols. All our employees have respirators, gloves, sanitary wipes, homemade hand sanitizer we prepared from Aloe vera gel and alcohol, and are trained in their use and encouraged to take consistent and rigorous safety precautions.
It remains to be seen how long we will have to maintain these policies, and if enough construction work will continue to keep the industry afloat. While we have concerns about the health risks of being on construction sites, we believe that taking appropriate precautions and avoiding high-risk situations will allow us, as well as the industry as a whole, to survive while continuing to expand the country’s much needed housing stock.

Task Management Advise for Going Back to varsity
I actually had joined 1 day of vo-tech institution correct after senior high school, but shed out as i moved to Albuquerque, NM to get a job. My own studies were in consumer electronics technology, and I found that although We were very good with gadgets, software was first much even more interesting than electronics components to me. We were a pc geek (still am) and was a self-taught designer. I migrated into training and operations roles, and got caught within a lot of layoffs as well. Despite the fact that I actually had job history, it was first challenging to find unique jobs. I discovered the formal discipline of project managing and seen away I just had recently been doing it all incorrect, and realized I needed a degree alright to always be competitive. My spouse and i returned to school to get a BS degree in Task Management in 2005.
I liked the education far more than before. When I was 18, I actually got out lending options and could not genuinely feel just like I was paying for it. We skipped classes in some cases, and so forth. This time around, it was a degree I was especially interested in, and I applied other people to the material mainly because much seeing that I could truthfully. First, My spouse and i grasped the cost of the money I used to be paying (gladly paying) to get this education, and second I actually appreciated that the benefit would originate from what I just retained and used, CERTAINLY NOT in the piece of newspapers I’ve get at the final or actually the marks I received.
Write, Are thinking, and Apply
Starting my personal blog in was best for me personally, mainly because I would write about what I just was learning in school and how I could apply that during my working day job. We also began frequenting a large number of online discussion boards and browsing other sites on the issue. My spouse and i had recently been a administrator and was able a lot of projects in a lady, adhoc way. Prior to going back to varsity I had used a job to be a developer at that moment to receive into a business where the environment was the right choice to apply task management in a formal method. I was first trying to do the job my own way in to PM HOURS assignments exactly where We my own operations experience I should have have got gone for your higher forking over management location, but My spouse and i took a deliberate step back so that I was able to become part of a project staff and find out right from the inside. 100% of my task was major and applying assignments to improve processes, introduce motorisation, and integrate proprietary systems from mergers and acquisitions.
Contribute and Go Previously mentioned and Over and above
Lead in class as much as possible, and discover it seeing that a chance to master and better yourself. We tried to do extra study on matters of particular interest anytime I can (much of what I investigated was about PRIVATE MESSAGE strategies and numerous elements of management/leadership) It’s exactly about what you get from that, certainly not about the piece of paper documents. Another way to visit above and beyond is always to volunteer. You could begin a analysis group, a EVENING student golf club, or perhaps volunteer for the purpose of different institutions. We experimented with to start a PM student club inside my college, nonetheless by the time personal pressures may have allowed myself to carry out so, I had been graduating and wouldn’t have the ability to keep it survive. Experienced My spouse and i started out before this may have got happened. We also linked the Learners of PRIVATE MESSAGE SIG (Specific Fascination Group) along with the PMI and volunteered now there. Generally there are tons of SIGs in the PROJECT MANAGEMENT INSTITUTE that concentrate on particular matters you can check out. Look into other PM HOURS organizations due to the fact well, my own only encounter is with PROJECT MANAGEMENT INSTITUTE but there are others in existence.
Save Some Money
Also, and some thing more. I just suggest to find used text book instead of selecting them from your school book shop. This site comes anywhere close prices throughout multiple vendors to come across you the most affordable price. We saved thousands over the years by doing: Be sure to buy these catalogs in enhance, it usually takes a few weeks for them to arrive at you. Likewise, be sure to get the correct models! Have a lot of fun at institution!

The stimulus is not the bailout.
I’m compelled to write that because it seems a lot of people mix up the two.
In order to write the story that ran today, Small Businesses Weigh Recovery Act, I spoke with a lot of business owners so I could understand how the massive law has or has not impacted them. The responses were mixed, as is evident from the three anecdotes that made it into the final article.
But one common theme surfaced during my interviews – and that was confusion. It became apparent as I progressed with my reporting that many business owners don’t know what the stimulus was or what it was intended to do.
In fact, in several instances, when I asked a business owner for opinons about Obama’s stimulus program, he or she would respond that too much money went to the banks.
I would then say, “Are you talking about the bailout or the stimulus?”
The familiar response: “Is there a difference?”
To quickly review – and, I promise, this will be painless – the bailout (also called the Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP), was a $700 billion initiative that passed in late 2008. It was designed to infuse banks with funds in order to stabilize their balance sheets that had gone kablooey when the housing bubble burst. Bailout funds also went to the struggling auto industry.
The stimulus (also called the Recovery and Reinvestment Act, or ARRA) was a $787 billion bill that passed several months later. It intended to boost employment and economic output through grants, loans and tax breaks. The recipients were state and local governments, individuals, and businesses both large and small. (See, that wasn’t so bad, was it?)
I completely get why so many people can’t keep the two straight. As a reporter simultaneously covering the funds that flowed from each bill, it was difficult at times during the early part of 2009 to remember what was what.
It must be even harder to know the facts when reading the legislation isn’t a part of your daily job. As if the similar amounts – both in the $700-something billion range – weren’t confusing enough, they both came with nonsensical acronyms. And because they were passed relatively close to each other, it’s easy to jumble them, particularly in retrospect two years later.
I spoke with John K. Paglia of Pepperdine University about this when he and I discussed the findings of a report he had recently published on the stimulus. His study found that the vast majority of small companies think publicly traded firms got the most stimulus funds. (And in fact, many large corporations did indeed benefit from the stimulus.) But I wondered if that was because so many owners think the stimulus funds were directed to giant financial firms and auto manufacturers.
“Small businesses are a little less sophisticated in terms of knowing what these programs are,” he said. “The average small business owner, I don’t think he or she has the time, energy or focus to [distinguish] the true differentiation.”
Still, he stood by his results. In addition to surveying business owners, he also surveyed capital providers, who, he said, are more “in tune” with the policies. That segment of respondents, he said, also felt that publicly traded companies got the bulk of the stimulus money.
From my observations, business owners don’t care that that they muddle the bailout and the stimulus. In many cases, they see them in the same context: huge sums of federal money that did not reach them. | <urn:uuid:2c2c7883-2773-4f18-91e7-e62a5cb55dfd> | CC-MAIN-2015-18 | http://blogs.wsj.com/in-charge/2011/02/24/stimulus-vs-bailout-whats-the-difference/ | 2015-04-25T19:29:11Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-18/segments/1429246650671.76/warc/CC-MAIN-20150417045730-00245-ip-10-235-10-82.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.984048 | 763 |

Also known as a bat mitzvah pre shoot. This portrait session usually takes place a month or two before the bat mitzvah. The photos can be used in a variety of ways: room decor, signing boards, and on custom candy wrappers just to name a few. We did these photos at the clients home in Westchester because we had beautiful Spring weather and a expansive suburban property that made it interesting for me to shoot in nature. The intent here was to create framed fine art to hang in the home.

Listening to Edward Snowden at SXSW (+video)
Snowden said his leaks have made the US safer.
Former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden spoke via internet link on a panel at the South by Southwest Conference (SXSW) in Austin today. If you were hoping for fresh revelations, or probing questions about his motivations and decisions, you would have been disappointed.
His fellow panelists were Ben Wizner and Chris Sogohian of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), but Mr. Snowden, sitting in front of a screen with the US Constitution emblazoned across it, was the star of the show.
What did Mr. Snowden, currently residing in Russia to avoid arrest at home, have to say?
1. Public oversight.
Snowden said the US needs some new kind of "public oversight" of its intelligence community. "We need a watchdog that watches Congress, because if we're not informed, we can't consent to these (government) policies," he said.
Well, there is a watchdog for the US Congress, the president, and the various arms of the federal government they fund and regulate. That watchdog is called voters. You can argue that elected representatives have failed to adequately carry out their duties (or not), but trying to find a way around electoral democracy, warts and all, that leads to better protection of individual liberty is a problem that has bedeviled political philosophers for generations.
He attacked the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) court that provides secret warrants for surveillance inside the country as a "rubber stamp" for US intelligence and law enforcement (never mind that just today the court denied an NSA request to hold on to telephone metadata indefinitely). A criticism that the court is generally far too friendly to requests from the NSA and others would be far from unreasonable.
But, again, American voters do in fact have it in their power to change this. Or they could continue to vote in favor of the politicians who have presided over the expansion of domestic surveillance in the years since 9/11.
2. The Boston Marathon bombing wasn't stopped because of the NSA.
This assertion was arguably Snowden's most risible. He claimed that the NSA's bulk collection of metadata distracted the agency from focusing on terrorists and as a result, the Tsarnaev brothers were able to attack the Boston Marathon last year. He also asserted that Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the so-called underwear bomber caught trying to bomb a Northwest Airlines flight in 2009, likewise was able to board the plane because of this distraction.
This is nonsense. It's true that Russia contacted the FBI about one of the Tsarnaev brothers in 2011 and warned that he had contacts to militant Islamist circles in the former Soviet Union. But it's also true that the FBI looked into it at the time, including visiting the family home in Cambridge, and found no evidence of any criminal activity.
If the US was in fact the Orwellian hell-scape of surveillance and trampling of civil liberties that many of Snowden's supporters seem to think it is (or maybe just a little bit more like Russia), perhaps the brothers would have been indefinitely detained, or placed under permanent surveillance. But, well, there are laws against that, so two young men who went on to attack the marathon two years later were left alone.
Many people who have worked in or studied the US intelligence community have worried for years that the US is becoming overly reliant on technical data collection rather than human intelligence (AKA "old fashioned" spying). And if that was his point, he'd have received a chorus of "preach it, brother" even from corners within CIA and NSA headquarters.
But the claim that automated metadata collection stands in the way of better human intelligence – or better analysis of information, whatever its source – is simply not supported by fact. That database is queried when an individual or group is targeted because they've appeared on spies' radar. While the picture of NSA staffers spending their days looking at citizens' dirty pictures and idly trawling through metadata to figure out where so-and-so had lunch last Friday is an amusing one, it isn't true.
3. Snowden has improved US national security.
Snowden asserted that the vast number of documents he stole – at least 50,000 – and the disclosures connected to them have made the US safer. This is a rather extreme and almost certainly false assertion. While it's one thing to argue a principle – a little less security is worth it for a little more personal liberty or privacy – the disclosure of the means and methods of the NSA (and its counterparts in the UK and Australia) has made it easier for foreign intelligence targets – governments and non-state actors alike – to evade detection. One of his leaks, for instance, explained the technical means the NSA was using to track Al Qaeda operatives in and around Mosul, Iraq.
There are also concerns about the proliferation of documents he took, and what they might contain. Snowden insists that the documents he took can't end up in the hands of foreign powers. But there's no particular reason to assume he's right.
4. Questions I'd like to have asked.
Finally, here are a few questions I would have asked if I could of Snowden: "If your principal concern was what you took to be violations of the US Constitution, why steal and release so many documents that disclose uncontroversially legal surveillance on foreign targets by the NSA?" "Why not get in touch with the US government and provide a full accounting of everything you stole, to assist the US with damage assessment from the leaks? "How could you have possibly vetted and reviewed all the documents you stole? The numbers involved seem impossible for you to have come to grips with in the time available." And "How do you feel about having taken asylum in Russia, a country that has a much poorer record when it comes to civil liberties and the surveillance of its citizens than the US? | <urn:uuid:75c01788-ca77-4d5b-ba58-d2ce745b35fe> | CC-MAIN-2015-06 | http://www.csmonitor.com/World/Security-Watch/Backchannels/2014/0310/Listening-to-Edward-Snowden-at-SXSW-video | 2015-02-01T19:07:31Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-06/segments/1422121478981.94/warc/CC-MAIN-20150124174438-00152-ip-10-180-212-252.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.977264 | 1,214 |
A federal judge just ruled that the Weld County Sheriff has not done enough to protect medically vulnerable jail detainees from COVID-19.
"Plaintiffs’ conditions of confinement violate the Eighth Amendment to the Constitution," Philip A. Brimmer, chief judge at the U.S. District Court of Colorado, wrote in a May 11 ruling, adding that he "concludes that [the sheriff's] social distancing efforts with respect to medically vulnerable inmates has not been reasonable."
Brimmer's opinion, which was prompted by a lawsuit filed by civil-rights attorneys against Sheriff Steve Reams, requires the sheriff to compile a list of medically vulnerable detainees currently held at the jail and enact a series of measures to keep them safe by May 21.
"This ruling should be required reading for every sheriff who runs a county jail. Every jail houses inmates who fit the criteria for being especially vulnerable if they contract COVID-19. Every sheriff has the same duty the court identified here: to identify the prisoners who fit those criteria and take special measures to protect them, including social distancing, improved cleaning and sanitation, and provision of personal protective equipment," says Mark Silverstein, an ACLU of Colorado lawyer who was part of a group of local attorneys that filed the lawsuit on behalf of seven jail detainees.
In their April 7 filing, the lawyers asked a judge to certify a class of medically vulnerable detainees and order their release from the jail.
Although a majority of the detainees who were parties to the case have since been released, the legal fight will continue, since the judge ruled only on a motion for a preliminary injunction and didn't address whether medically vulnerable detainees must be released from the jail.
Attorneys representing Reams, whose office declined to comment on Brimmer's ruling, have argued that the sheriff did, in fact, take the COVID-19 threat seriously and ordered proactive measures to protect detainees in the jail.
The Weld County Jail has the capacity for 1,170 detainees. At the end of April, there were only 478 detainees housed in the jail.
But the case against Reams argues that he didn't do enough early enough. "Rather than taking proactive measures at the start of this crisis to comply with public health guidance, Weld County Sheriff Steven Reams has openly eschewed the seriousness of the pandemic and ignored the science and data underlying public health experts’ concerns regarding dangerous spread of the virus within overcrowded jails," the suit argues.
Like Weld County at large, the jail has been hit particularly hard, with at least ten confirmed COVID-19 cases among detainees and at least seventeen among deputies. On April 1, 78-year-old Charles Peterson died from COVID-19 two days after being released from the jail. According to a jail spokesperson, Peterson hadn't displayed symptoms consistent with COVID-19 while he was detained.
“Weld County’s lawyer argued that the judge should excuse the sheriff’s failure to take COVID-19 more seriously because there had ‘only been one death.’ Today's order makes clear that when it comes to COVID-19, half measures don't cut it. Jails need to take aggressive measures to keep medically vulnerable people safe," says Dan Williams, one of the lawyers representing the detainees.
On May 12, the Weld County Sheriff’s Office sent out this response from Reams to the ruling:"Weld County Sheriff’s Office staff are compiling data about medically vulnerable inmates at the Weld County Jail in accordance with the court’s order. Once that process is complete, the sheriff will decide about future jail operations that take into consideration risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic while also assuring the safety of Weld County residents."
Other Colorado correctional facilities have been the site of COVID-19 outbreaks. At the Downtown Detention Center in Denver, at least 84 inmates have contracted COVID-19 over the course of the pandemic. And at the Sterling Correctional Facility, a prison run by the state's Department of Corrections, 329 inmates have tested positive for COVID-19; two of those inmates have died.

Mergulhadores apanhados a tentar cortar cabo submarino...
Internet service in Egypt had already been off since 22 March, supposedly because a passing ship damaged a separate cable. The trio, who approached “hacking” from a different angle than usual, took to the water a day before repairs to the other cable were expected to be completed and service restored.
The effects of the ship taking out that cable were experienced as far away as Pakistan and India, Jim Cowie, chief technology officer at Renesys, a network security firm, told the Associated Press. Cowie noted that a severed cable can force wide scale data rerouting, with some of the packets traveling the long way around the world.

Oh boy, it’s time to have some fun. Yeah, you heard me; The Neptune Power Federation is here to deliver the vibes first created in the heat of the mid-late 60’s, blending off the cuff science fiction, bright colors and fuzzy guitar riffs into one heady concotion. Remember when heavy metal/rock was all about that? The early 70’s were all about your Iron Maidens (who are quoted directly on “Way of the Wizard”, a track on the album we’re going to discuss here), Led Zeppelins and Judas Priests, bands drawing their influence right from a drug-hazed, sex-filled vision of the New Age occult in America. Sure, it produced a lot of nonsense but it also provided metal and rock with the fuel they needed for their great flourishing.
The Neptune Power Federation are here to bring those days back. Their upcoming Neath A Shin Ei Sun is chock full of great stoner rock riffs and psychedelic touches, the crowning glory of which are the amazing vocals and their wide use of choirs on the album. Bundle that up with some great lyrics and a bold approach to changing the genre as fits the music, and you get The Neptune Power Federation. What in heaven’s sake are you still doing here? Head down below for your first taste!
[bandcamp width=100% height=120 album=2151102053 size=large bgcol=ffffff linkcol=0687f5 tracklist=false artwork=small]
I’ll be honest with you, the first passages of the title track from the album didn’t grab me too hard at first. I mean, they’re all great but pretty standard. However, closer to the end of the track, you suddently start hearing the choirs added to the vocals and your ear perks up. Then, the music breaks and a segement straight from the musical “Hair” comes on, the guitars break out in a glorious solo and the vocals amp everything up and notch and bam! You’re sold.
The opening track, being the first track released from the album, is a fantastic intro but it’s made all the more powerful by the closing track, which was released as the second single. “We Shall Triumph” is a much more expensive track, clocking in at over ten minutes. It also takes more influence from Rush or Queen, interjecting the psychedelic rock vibe with lots of emotion and melodrama. Featuring a meaty main riffs and vocals flirting with Rob Halford, “We Shall Triump” is an ambitious closing track, ending the album on a high note. It also flows expertly, bordering the lines of progressive rock without giving way on how much fun and energy it brings to the table.
Which is The Neptune Power Federation in a nutshell: it’s accessible, it’s fun but it’s also very well made, not willing to sacrifice quality for humour and lightheartedness. And why should it? Who said music has either to be accomplised or fun? Suits, that’s how! Resist their dull ways and open your third eye to the flooding pink light emanating from the mother that is The Neptune Power Federation; you won’t regret it.

|0.25″-diameter short-tail force sensing resistor (FSR) next to a 0.2″-diameter FSR with a standard tail.|
This force-sensing resistor (FSR) from Interlink Electronics is a passive component that acts as a variable resistor, with resistance decreasing in response to increasing applied force, which makes it easy to add a touch interface to your project or create a robot with much more sophisticated tactile senses than are possible with simple lever switches. The polymer thick film (PTF) device is optimized for use in human touch control of electronic devices and can sense an applied force anywhere in the active area ranging from a few dozen grams to a few kilograms (0.2 N to 20 N).
In our tests, the resistance exceeded 1 MΩ with no applied pressure and ranged from around 100 kΩ to a few hundred Ohms as finger pressure varied from light (a few dozen grams) to heavy (pressing as hard as possible). The resistance is very stable when the pressure is fixed, and the readings are very repeatable (there are no problems with hysteresis). This resistance range is well suited to work directly with the internal pull-ups of many microcontrollers such as AVRs and PICs. The FSR was responsive enough and sensitive enough to distinctly pick up light, rapid finger taps, and it was even able to pick up the vibrations of a small vibration motor placed on it on the motor’s side.
The 0.3″-diameter circular pad is flexible, light (0.15 g), and extremely thin (0.01″), and it has a circular active sensing area with a diameter of 0.2″. It does not appreciably compress when pressure is applied. The FSR has a masked adhesive backing for easy mounting, and the 1.4″ flexible male leads give you a convenient way to integrate the part into your project. The two male pins (called “solder tabs”) have a 0.1″ spacing, which means they are compatible with most solderless breadboards and perfboards, though the solder tabs are too short to work well with many 0.1″ connectors. (A very similar FSR with a slightly larger active area and a much shorter tail is also available; see the picture on the right for a side-by-side comparison of the two versions.)
Note that this FSR is not a load cell or strain gauge, and it is not suitable for precision force measurements. While it can be used for high-resolution dynamic measurement, only qualitative results are generally attainable. Force accuracy ranges from 5% to 25% depending on a number of factors, and the resolution is better than 0.5% of the full range. Please see the resources tab for more information, including force-vs-resistance curves, integration notes, usage tips, and suggested electrical circuits.
|A variety of force-sensing resistors (FSRs).|
Interlink refers to this product as part number FSR 400 in their FSR 400 series. We have eight versions of force-sensing resistors available, which lets you choose the one with the dimensions that best suit your application:
Note that the last two sensors in this list are FSLPs (force-sensing linear potentiometers) that let you detect both the amount of applied force and where on the strip the force was applied.

Tsars and stripes: Dior takes Russia
10/07/2013 12:00:00 AM
Dior returns to Moscow, staging a runway show in Red Square
Not since 100-plus gowns and a bevy of models were shipped to a Communist-era Russia in 1959 has Dior made such news in Moscow. Yesterday, the house returned to a very different city to restage its autumn/winter 13-14 show in historic Red Square. A mirrored pavilion, set up exclusively for the show, reflected storybook images of the Kremlin, Saint Basil’s Cathedral and GUM, the grand old department store and site of the original presentation.
While the centuries-old square has seen coronations, proclamations and, no doubt, heartfelt declarations, it’s the first time a couture house has been invited to show in the public space, and Moscow’s social set turned out in their (or Dior’s) finest. Model Elena Perminova chose a chic shorts suit for the occasion, finished off with an eye-popping (and quite possibly genuine) sapphire at her throat. Hometown designer Vika Gazinskaya accessorised with Bolshoi Ballet’s principal dancer David Hallberg. Miroslava Duma opted for bold Dior Resort 14 and national beauty Natalia Vodianova was primped in pink.
A performance by Bryan Ferry capped off the show before guests kicked on to the unofficial after-party at Simachev Bar, where Dior’s tsarinas hit the dance floor like it was, well, 1959. | <urn:uuid:04293d0b-302e-4094-879d-dda7384fc88a> | CC-MAIN-2016-50 | http://m.elle.com.au/news/fashion-news/2013/7/tsars-and-stripes-dior-takes-russia/ | 2016-12-09T03:57:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-50/segments/1480698542680.76/warc/CC-MAIN-20161202170902-00031-ip-10-31-129-80.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.917 | 337 |
Verizon Waives Call Charges, Enlists Employees, Customers to Assist Earthquake Victims in Nepal
BASKING RIDGE, N.J., April 27, 2015 /3BL Media/ - Verizon is calling on its employees and customers to join in assisting the victims of a devastating earthquake that struck Nepal and the surrounding region on April 25.
Verizon will also waive charges for long-distance calls and text messages from the U.S. to Nepalese numbers from April 25 through May 31 to support its customers who are trying to communicate with their families and friends in Nepal. If fees were charged, credits will be issued in a future bill statement.
Residential Verizon Long Distance and FiOS Digital Voice customers can directly call Nepal at no charge from April 25 through May 31.
All Verizon Wireless postpaid customers will be able to make free calls and send free text and multimedia messages from the US to Nepalese numbers. Postpaid customers are those who receive a monthly Verizon Wireless bill. In addition, Verizon Wireless will waive charges for calls, text messages or multimedia messages (applicable taxes and surcharges will still apply) sent from Nepalese numbers to Verizon Wireless postpaid customers located in the U.S.
Verizon Wireless supports text-to-donate programs, allowing its customers to make a $10 donation to qualifying non-profit organizations including:
- World Vision by texting NEPAL to 777444.
- The Red Cross by texting REDCROSS to 90999.
Text-messaging fees will be waived, and Verizon Wireless postpaid customers will see their donations on their next regular monthly bill. For customers using the company’s prepaid services, donations will be deducted from their prepaid balances.
“This is one of the most powerful earthquakes to hit Nepal in recent memory, and the need for support and relief is immediate and immense,” said Rose Stuckey Kirk, Verizon vice president of global corporate social responsibility and president of the Verizon Foundation. “With operations around the world, Verizon and its employees have a history of running to crises such as this one, and we’re committed to helping citizens of Nepal and the neighboring region as they begin to recover and rebuild from this devastating natural disaster.”

Oil spill clean-up costs overblown
I commend the Black Press team on the excellent and largely accurate three-part series Oil & Water regarding the potential increase in crude oil tankers in Vancouver harbour.
Unfortunately, the second part examining the effects of a spill contained numerous unchallenged errors.
Firstly, Rex Weyler’s claim that bitumen hitting the water separates into gases and creates a toxic cloud is sheer fiction. If he meant diluted bitumen (“dilbit”), it is still a misleading statement, in my opinion. Some of the light diluent will evaporate, but it is harmful only if people stay in the area downwind for some time.
Over a few days, the fumes dissipate. Like table salt, which is toxic above certain limits, it’s all about the dose.
As to the threat of toluene and benzene, their concentration in dilbit is less than one per cent, or one-30th of that in the gasoline you pour into your lawn mower.
The oil sinks to the bottom, Weyler claims. Some heavy crudes such as Mexican Maya may sink to the bottom of a fresh-water body, but typical Canadian bitumen should not in either fresh water (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency conclusion) or especially in our denser salt water.
However, the final result depends on the crudes shipped, and a turbulent fresh water river could cause such problems.
Mr. Weyler says he based his $40 -billion number for an oil spill clean-up “here” by comparing our situation to somebody’s estimated $50-billion clean-up cost for the BP offshore oil rig blowout in the Gulf of Mexico. He might as well compare it to the cost of a space shuttle flight; it’s apples and oranges.
First, there have been serious blowouts on oil platforms; in a century of tankers in B.C. waters there has never been a major spill, even in the half century before radar, electronic depth finders, GPS, tethered tugs, double hulls and coastal pilots on our tankers.
Second, a double-hulled Aframax tanker moving at five knots with tethered tugs in Vancouver Harbour has the safety feature of 10-14 individual tanks; even if the total tanker load were leaked (an impossibility in my view), it would be 12 per cent of the BP blowout of five million barrels.
Third, the BP leak was 5,000 feet deep, and unlike a tanker, had an unknown ultimate volume of oil escaping at high pressure and could only be inspected by remote submarines.
Fourth, the Gulf spill continued for over three months; oil is not left pouring out of a grounded tanker in Vancouver’s harbour for months.
Even Exxon Valdez, a tanker carrying twice the load of our Aframax tankers, which hit a reef at 18 knots and ruptured eight of 11 tanks, cost “only” $4.3 billion for clean-up and compensation (excluding punitive damages) in an extremely cold and remote area with no initial clean-up capability.
Colleen Doucette of The Oiled Wildlife Society of B.C. claims there are no laws forcing oil spillers to respond to oiled wildlife. This is a half truth. The Environment Canada website for the 1990 “National Policy on Oiled Birds” allows the Canadian Wildlife Service to take over oiled bird operations if the polluter is not doing an adequate job, charge them the costs of clean-up, investigate the incident, and take legal action.
Lastly, the unidentified person who commented that the port has handled oil tanker traffic for more than 50 years is half right. It’s been nearly a century since Imperial Oil opened Ioco Refinery in about 1915.

9 Signs You & Him Are In A *Mature* Relationship!
Being in a relationship can be a lot of work. But sometimes, you get lucky and find someone who makes it just so easy! You feel comfortable and secure with this person - and very seldom do they give you reasons to fight with them. Here are a few signs you’re in a mature relationship. Lucky you!
1. Your arguments are productive and have a solution…
You don’t just argue aimlessly for the sake of arguing, or because you’re angry and just feel like having it out with each other. If you fight at all, it's because you want to better a situation and come out of it stronger than before.
2. There is immense trust between the two of you
You’re not worried about where he is or what he’s doing even if you haven’t spoken to him all day. You know he’s probably just busy and will call you when he can. Your brain doesn’t even wander into “spy” mode.
3. There is no such thing as jealousy…
Again, this, of course, goes hand in hand with trust. Neither you nor your partner get jealous of the other girls or guys in your lives. You know that all the other women in his life are just his friends and you know your place in his life because he makes it so clear - and vice a versa. He makes it clear that you’re his priority - so there is no room for jealousy!
4. You have a huge amount of respect for one another…
And you always have each other’s back. You respect each other's choices and decisions and support one another. Everyone in your life knows that you guys are a team. You mess with one, you mess with the other too!
5. You never force your opinions onto the other…
You are definitely a team, but that doesn’t mean that if you like someone and he doesn’t, you have to dislike them too. And the same goes for him. He doesn’t have to dislike someone just because you do. You’re open enough with each other to accept that you both can have differences in choices and opinions - and that’s okay. You are still two individuals at the end of the day.
6. You don’t discuss your problems with the whole world!
You don’t like washing your dirty laundry in public! Yes, you love and respect each other. And while you may feel the need to vent once in awhile to your friends after you’ve had a fight, you know your limit and you know what is okay and not okay to say. You have a few close friends with whom you might discuss your relationship - but you make sure that it doesn’t become a matter of public knowledge!
7. You’re both equals…
You both split the bills, you both take turns picking a place to eat and deciding your weekend plans! It doesn’t always work the way one person wants. The relationship is as much about him as it is about you!
8. You show your love for each other…
Rather than just saying it with words! You realize now how important it is to actually make each other feel loved by doing small things rather than just saying it and not really backing it up with any actions.
9. You’re not worried about the future
You may not have even discussed the future properly, but you know that you have nothing to worry about. Both of you know that this relationship is headed in the right direction - and just knowing that is enough for you. You know, and so does he, that everything will happen at the right time!

COLUMBIA, Md. (FOX 5 DC) - The National Weather Service - Baltimore/Washington has confirmed an EF1 tornado touched down in Columbia Thursday during the evening's severe storms.
Howard County Fire and Rescue officials say they started getting calls about damage from the tornado around 3:40 p.m.
It left one street, Wayover Way, dotted with tree limbs and debris.
But a large tree toppling onto a home there left behind the most serious damage, splitting the home nearly in half. Neighbors tell FOX 5 several people were inside including a woman in her 70s and her son.
The woman was in her bedroom reading when the tree trapped her. Her son was able to pull her out and she was rushed to the hospital as a precaution.
"She was in her bedroom reading when the tree came through the house and he went in quickly and got her out. When she came out she had some scratches and she was covered in insulation from the house, so yeah. He saved her," said Deena Seifert.
She is expected to be okay, according to neighbors and a Howard County Fire and Rescue spokesman. | <urn:uuid:03becf87-313c-423b-92db-99b9c4a936a0> | CC-MAIN-2019-51 | https://www.fox5dc.com/weather/ef1-tornado-confirmed-in-columbia-after-severe-storms | 2019-12-06T09:32:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-51/segments/1575540486979.4/warc/CC-MAIN-20191206073120-20191206101120-00545.warc.gz | en | 0.985814 | 236 |
What to expect on your office visit
The visit is initiated by filling out forms and questionnaires
selected according to patient’s needs and concerns. For more efficient information
gathering we now offer new patients an email sent questionnaire forms which can be
filled in prior to the appointment. For those without email access we can send the forms
via regular mail. Questions regarding lifestyle,
nutrition, stress factors, supplements taken are included. Medical records
brought by the patient or sent from another clinic are reviewed at the same time
and questions are asked if the information from medical records need any clarification.
After the information is reviewed some additional information might
be asked if necessary. Written information gathering is followed by physical examination.
At the end of the visit recommendations are given regarding the
specific problem(s) or advice on preventive issues.
Payment is expected at the end of the visit, when the patient receives
the statement and receipt with the letter to insurance company requesting reimbursement
for my visit, if applicable.
I like to spend more time on the initial visit to get to know my patient well,
although it depends on patient's current objectives and needs and whether
it is practical for the patient.
Office visits are by appointment only.
The following forms of payments are accepted:
Credit Card (Master Card/Visa).
I will provide a coded medical bill, and a copy of the clinical record
if needed. This documentation should be submitted to the insurance company
to obtain reimbursement for my services.
Office charges are based on face to face time spent with the patient. Additional
charges may apply for tests and/or procedures.

Why Ageless Life Solutions does not bill insurance companies
Ageless Life Solutions does not bill any insurance companies, but
accepts all patients interested in our services and accepting our philosophy of
The biggest expense for the insurance company are hospital bills,
therefore the main objective for them is to keep the patients out of the hospital.
Medical services that help to avoid hospitalization are covered, but not the ones
focused on optimizing person's long term health.
Some of the services that we provide and recommend to maintain
and improve health may not be covered by the insurance company.
The insurance company usually reimburses the doctor
for an office visit or procedure when the patient comes being sick. Our philosophy
is focused on intervention before subtle symptoms and suboptimal function of the
body progresses into full blown disease. Some of the laboratory testing we
recommend to evaluate overall health and needs is not disease based and the insurance
companies might deny reimbursement for it.
By not billing insurance companies we are able to keep our overhead
costs lower and translate this into lower fees for our patients. This approach
offers us more time to be spent on keeping up with the latest medical information
and finding better ways to provide health care to patients. | <urn:uuid:74c5cfd7-c402-42ec-bcae-cd945392a6f5> | CC-MAIN-2017-04 | http://www.agelesslifesolutions.com/OfficeVisit.aspx | 2017-01-18T20:05:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-04/segments/1484560280319.10/warc/CC-MAIN-20170116095120-00363-ip-10-171-10-70.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.890666 | 648 |
Increasing Packet Capture Port Density with FMAD 40Gbps Packet Capture Systems and a regular switch. Using our 2x40G Packet Capture System and 2 separate switches you can achieve excellent cost per port capture numbers.
Increasing Packet Capture Port Density
The safest approach to packet capture is using Layer 1 Fiber Optical TAP`s as its completely passive (no active electrical components) and highly robust, your literally splitting the light on the wire and nothing else. Its not to say Layer 1 Fiber optic TAPs go bad but its extremely rare to hear this. The problem with this approach is, it creates an enormous amount of ports to capture.
Capturing a single 10G line, requires 2x10G ports, one for Transmit, one for Receive and it quickly escalates into a some what large number of ports to capture. To review we discussed in the post 10G TAP SPAN MIRROR. So whats new? our FMAD80 2x 40Gbps Packet Capture system is whats new!
The approach is using a switch's 40G up-link port as the SPAN/MIRROR port to our 40G Packet Capture system. This way you can run 2 separate aggregation switch's into a single Packet Capture system. The result can be some incredible port density at more than reasonable costs.
Low cost Bare Metal Aggregation
Using some of the low cost bare metal switches, for example the AUORA 720 with the OpenSwitch software is only $7,000 USD and supports 32x 40GH QSFP ports with breakout cables it can support a maximum of 124 x 10G ingress ports, with a single 40G egress SPAN port to our switch. Put two of these together with our FMAD80 system with 24TB of storage, and you have aggregation of 248 x 10G ports, with 80Gbps of capture bandwidth!
That makes the total cost of:
2 x AUORA 720 : $14,000 USD
1 x FMAD80 24TB : $48,000 USD
Total : $62,000 USD / 248 10G Ports
Resulting in... $250 / capture port, incredible really. Of course there`s limitations, its a maximum of 80Gbps capture rate meaning out of the theoretical 2,480 Gbps (248 x10G) you can only capture 80Gbps worth of data. However for many monitoring applications it may burst to 10Gbps but the 24H sustained utilization is typically closer to 1Gbps or less. None the less its an interesting approach on how to deal with a large number of Layer 1 fiber TAP`s.
An example setup is shown above, you could use a regular 24 x 10G port switch with 1 x 40G up-link with a much better over subscription rate. The final key point is using FMAD80`s automatic push functionality to output PCAP`s to a remote file server. This way our 2 x 40Gbps packet capture system acts as a temporary cache for buffering line rate data, with the storage server focusing on massive PetaByte level storage capacity.

Mavenoid Raises $2M to Automate Technical Support
Mavenoid, the troubleshooting platform, announces a $2 million seed round led by Point Nine Capital, with participation from Spotify’s first investor Creandum. The funding round also includes angel investors Andreas Ehn, Jeremy Yap, Erik Byrenius, Alfred Ruth, and Leo Giertz. As part of the investment, Christoph Janz, Partner at Point Nine, and Staffan Helgesson, General Partner at Creandum, will join Mavenoid’s board.
“The fundraising event is a major event for the company that will allow us to build up our engineering team further and also to expand to new markets,” says Gintautas Miliauskas, Co-founder of Mavenoid.
Mavenoid has started to establish itself as the future of technical support. Since launching less than a year ago, the company has signed deals with seven of the largest enterprises in the Nordics. Founded by two former Palantir employees, the company’s technology was born out of a diagnostic platform developed at the Swedish Institute of Computer Science in close collaboration with the Swedish Armed Forces to help mechanics repair tanks and terrain vehicles.
Mavenoid automates technical support with a virtual agent on the company’s support website, or app. It works much like a veterinarian for technical products, narrowing down the possible solutions to the problem by asking the human owner diagnostic, multiple-choice questions.
For example, if your equipment has trouble turning on, the Mavenoid-powered technical support might ask simple and structured questions that would diagnose the issue in the electrical system and provide the solution to fix it. Answering structured questions provides instant technical support that’s actually useful, and is much faster than expressing a technical problem in your own words, which is why chatbots can be so frustrating.
The company has quickly established itself with industrial players due to the reduced support costs and resolution times of automating common, but often complex troubleshooting tasks. This frees up customer service agents to focus on solving problems requiring a human touch. Another benefit is that Mavenoid takes days to deploy, not months. This is done by combining human knowledge with machine learning, using experts to bootstrap a simple model in order to start learning from customer interactions as quickly as possible. It’s troubleshooting-as-a-service, not a big IT project.
“Shahan and Gintas combine technical excellence with strong commercial ‘DNA’ and a unique vision for the future of technical support,” says Christoph Janz, Partner at Point Nine Capital and the first angel investor in Zendesk, the leading customer service platform. “I couldn’t be more excited to join them on their mission to build the best troubleshooting-as-a-service product in the world.”
Shahan Lilja, CEO and Co-founder of Mavenoid, adds, “I’m thrilled to have Point Nine Capital and Creandum join us on our mission to fix things faster, particularly because of their deep expertise in SaaS and scaling companies from the Nordics.”
When it comes to competitors, G. Miliauskas says “There are several other companies that are in a similar space to ours, but they take slightly different approaches. Some of them try to build sophisticated quantitative probabilistic models of faults in machinery, however, that makes the system setup much more involved. Training those systems requires understanding and estimation of conditional probabilities, which is difficult to do for their clients, so their product is more bespoke and more specialised. We aim for the 80/20 solution, with 80% of the benefit for 20% of the cost. On the other side of the market you have chatbots and simple information lookup systems, but they are often limited to a single exchange (you pose a question, and the system suggests a bunch of relevant articles). Our system is intended to guide the user through the problem discovery process rather than simply expect them to enter all of the information by themselves.”
With today’s funding, the company plans to make its virtual agent available via more channels, and expand outside of the Nordics. Mavenoid is currently hiring for both technical and non-technical roles in Stockholm. | <urn:uuid:10c9b138-a996-4420-848d-1c4491851ab2> | CC-MAIN-2019-39 | https://www.startuplithuania.com/news/mavenoid-raises-2m-automate-technical-support/ | 2019-09-23T04:50:44Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-39/segments/1568514576047.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190923043830-20190923065830-00418.warc.gz | en | 0.941804 | 902 |
Even before Google has completely rolled out Google Buzz for everyone, there have been protests and unhappiness about it from certain quarters on the web. Some people are unhappy about the increase in intrusion of their privacy and few others find Google Buzz as an addition to ever-growing noise in social networking world.
If you are one of those, feel lucky! It is not tough to keep away the Buzz from your Gmail inbox. According to Adam Pash, any Buzz notification automatically matches the Gmail query label:buzz, so all you’ve got to do is set up a quick filter to keep those Buzz notifications out of your inbox. Here’s how it works:
Filter Buzz Notifications Out of Your Gmail Inbox
1. Click on Create a filter link in Gmail (next to the search box)
2. In “Has the words” text box, enter label:buzz. Click on Next Step. Gmail will warn you that Filter searches containing label and a few other search operators won’t work, but don’t worry, they seem to work just fine, so click OK and move on.
3. Finally, tick the checkbox next to Skip the Inbox (Archive it) and the click the Create Filter button.
That’s it! From now on, your Gmail inbox should be Buzz-free. You can optionally add a special label to your Buzz items at this point, or you could just search label:buzz whenever you want to check out your Buzz notifications.
How to Turn Off Buzz completely?
In case, you want to turn off Buzz altogether, just find the tiny turn off buzz link at the very bottom of your Gmail window. I am using Adam’s screenshot as I am not lucky enough to get access to Buzz yet. | <urn:uuid:6eb10bbc-4cb2-4daf-8611-de6a8c3ba44a> | CC-MAIN-2016-40 | http://techpp.com/2010/02/10/how-to-hide-remove-google-buzz-from-gmail/ | 2016-09-27T08:48:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-40/segments/1474738660996.20/warc/CC-MAIN-20160924173740-00167-ip-10-143-35-109.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.894852 | 372 |

The basic reason of Russian rivers pollution is irrational using of natural water as washing agent. The centralized systems of the “technical” water preparation for different objects and return it after using to simultaneously cleaning are morally old-fashioned. As a washing agent are proposed to use the cycling into closed systems “working bodies.” The “working body” has to be special compose for each technological system. They are recommend to use the formed with components little inter solvability and to take into attention their facilities at the move through narrow canals and also at the phasic conversion. There are some examples of “working bodies” good choice.

A new issue has been reported by owners of the smartphone.
The screen of the new iPhone is flickering when the virtual keyboard is displayed, some users say.
YouTube videos showing how the display is affected have also been posted online.
The site writes that the problem only occurs when the handset is in portrait mode and the “.?123” button is pressed in the lower left corner of the keyboard.
The issue also appears when users are prompted to enter their Apple ID password.
Due to the fact that the issue only occurs in such specific circumstances, the site wnotes that the glitch may be a software error, rather than a problem with the 4-inch Retina display on the iPhone 5. | <urn:uuid:5f568acf-7499-4203-89a5-aacb7b9dc8b9> | CC-MAIN-2017-04 | http://www.inrumor.com/in/technology/iphone-5-users-report-glitch-with-onscreen-keyboard/ | 2017-01-19T00:17:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-04/segments/1484560280410.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20170116095120-00324-ip-10-171-10-70.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.945357 | 144 |
27 June 2010 13th Sunday in Ordinary Time
1 Kings 19, 16-21; Psalm 16; Gal 5, 1-13; Luke 9, 51-62
I found a story from the book, The Best of Bits and Pieces, compiled and edited by Arthur F. Lenehan:
An apple grower had built up a good mail-order business and was justifiably proud of his product. His apples were wonderful — crisp, juicy bright red, and shiny as a carefully polished brass rail. His customers came to expect only the best in taste and appearance.
Then one year a hailstorm occurred just before the harvest. Nearly every apple was marred by hail.
The apple grower had thousands of orders and checks, and his customers were fully expecting baskets and boxes of his bountiful fruit for the holiday season. He had a problem. If he sent out the pockmarked fruit he would have thousands of dissatisfied customers and his business would suffer — perhaps even dry up.
The problem was in the appearance of the apples. How could he turn this liability into an asset?
The fact was they tasted great. The taste was better than normal because cold weather improves the flavor of apples when they’re approaching ripeness. So the grower decided to fill the orders he had. But with each shipment he enclosed a card that said, “Note the hail marks that have caused minor skin blemishes on some of these apples. They are proof of their growth at a high mountain altitude where the sudden chills from hailstorms help firm the flesh, develop the fruit sugars, and give these apples their incomparable flavor.”
Nobody sent the apples back. And the next year, the apple grower got orders with many notes expressing a preference for hail-marked apples rather than unblemished ones.
In the Gospel, Jesus passes through Samaria, the easiest way from Galilee to Jerusalem, his final destination. But the Jews avoided it because of centuries-old rift with the Samaritans. The Samaritans employed all means to prevent pilgrims who would pass through their land to Jerusalem. As expected, Jesus was rejected. So, James and John were angry at the Samaritans, except Jesus. Jesus just took another route.
The apple grower and Jesus were presented with difficulties in reaching their goals. The solutions to their problems were similar but wise. They just took a different road. Often, difficulties block the road to our goals. Sometimes the best solution is not to curse the difficulty like James and John, but to use another approach like the apple grower or simply, just take another way. | <urn:uuid:4a8a52b1-5038-4fc4-b4f9-9037422a9654> | CC-MAIN-2021-17 | https://jboygonzalessj.com/2010/06/27/take-another-road/ | 2021-04-20T00:19:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-17/segments/1618038921860.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20210419235235-20210420025235-00140.warc.gz | en | 0.98478 | 541 |

DENVER -- The Denver Nuggets have lost another player who helped them reach the Western Conference finals.
Forward Linas Kleiza, who played four years in Denver, is taking his game to Europe.
Nuggets executive Mark Warkentien said Kleiza has chosen to play for Olympiakos, agreeing to a two-year deal worth $12.2 million. Warkentien said Kleiza's agent, Bill Duffy, informed him of the signing Monday. Duffy was flying back from Europe and unavailable for comment.
Kleiza, who provided the Nuggets with an outside shooting prowess off the bench, was extended a qualifying offer by the Nuggets in June, making him a restricted free agent and guaranteeing him a $2.7 million salary this season.
That's an 80 percent raise from the $1.5 million he earned last season but nowhere near what Olympiakos was willing to pay the Lithuanian forward who played at the University of Missouri.
Kleiza averaged 9.9 points and four rebounds last season. He got off to a sluggish start after the Nuggets pulled a four-year, $25 million contract extension off the table the night before the season started but came on strong down the stretch and was a key contributor off the bench in the playoffs along with J.R. Smith and Chris "Birdman" Andersen.
He averaged 6.9 points and 3.2 rebounds in the playoffs, after which he said he hoped to stay in Denver, although he was keeping all options open.
"I would like to come back. I had a lot of fun here. It was a good four years," Kleiza said after cleaning out his locker on May 30.
The Nuggets and their fans have watched other teams, notably the champion Lakers, Spurs and Trail Blazers, all get better via free agency this summer while they've stood pat and actually lost players.
The Nuggets retain Kleiza's NBA rights.
"His road back to the NBA goes through Denver," Warkentien said. "The simple thing is we move on, we'll replace him."

Over the last 10 days, the MIC’s election machinery bulldozed its way into the four estates in the Bagan Pinang constituency and appeared to be holding the “Indian bastion” from slipping into the opposition hands.
MIC president Datuk Seri S.Samy Vellu said the MIC wanted to keep its pledge to deliver as many Indian votes as possible to the Barisan Nasional (BN) in the Oct 11 Bagan Pinang state by-election.
He said that since nomination day last Saturday, almost 1,000 party members, including those from the Youth, Wanita, Puteri and Putera wings had “literally camped” at the predominantly Indian populated estates.
“We have maintained our position in the estates even before nomination day and have assured the Indian voters (in the estates) that the government will continue to bring changes and progress to them,” he said after concluding another six straight hours of campaigning in Bagan Pinang Tuesday night.
Bagan Pinang, which is the Teluk Kemang parliamentary constituency, has 30 per cent non-Malay votes.
Twenty per cent or 2,834 of the voters are Indians and are mostly concentrated in the four estates — Bradwell, Atherthon, Siliau and Sua Betong — and 10 per cent or 1,498 are Chinese scattered in the constituency.
The Malays account for 62 per cent or about 8,500 of the voters, including postal voters.
Samy Vellu said his confidence in getting the Indian voters’ support for the (BN) candidate would be further strengthened by Human Resources Minister and MIC vice-president Datuk Dr. S.Subramaniam’s scheduled announcement tomorrow on his (Dr Subramaniam’s) meeting with officials of Sime Darby which own the four estates.
Dr Subramaniam had said that he would announce details of his discussions with the plantation giant last Monday on the solutions to many of the estate workers’ woes.
Samy Vellu who is leading the MIC charge in Bagan Pinang, admitted that the Indian voters were not only concerned with developments but also wanted their rights to be protected by the government.
“We have held several discussions with the residents in the estates and they are happy with the initiatives being taken by our prime minister.
“They are very clear now. They know for a fact that the government has taken steps to bring progress to the Indian community and that it can only continue if the BN is given a stronger mandate,” he said.
Samy Vellu said other MIC leaders like deputy president Datuk G.Palanivel and Dr Subramaniam, who have also been campaigning daily, had managed to “break the barrier” with the Indian voters since the last general election where many of them had supported the PAS candidate.
“The environment and mood among the Indian voters is now different compared with the last general election,” he said.
He said the MIC expected a big turnout at the party’s Deepavali open house tomorrow at 8pm at the Sua Betong estate which would also be grced by Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin and other top BN leaders. | <urn:uuid:ed498557-d9a6-4a03-b1c9-58d5fc82a635> | CC-MAIN-2018-22 | http://www.bintulu.org/2009/10/07/1000-mic-members-camped-bagan-pinang-fish-indian-voters.php | 2018-05-23T20:30:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-22/segments/1526794865809.59/warc/CC-MAIN-20180523200115-20180523220115-00401.warc.gz | en | 0.969367 | 686 |

17th International Conference on Modeling Decisions for Artificial Intelligence
MDAI 2020, Sant Cugat, Catalonia, Spain, September 2 - 4, 2020
The conference is on different facets of decision processes in a broad sense. This includes model building and all kind of mathematical tools for data aggregation, information fusion, and decision making; tools to help decision in data science problems (including e.g., statistical and machine learning algorithms as well as data visualization tools); and algorithms for data privacy and transparency-aware methods so that data processing processes and decisions made from them are fair, transparent, explainable and avoid unnecessary disclosure of sensitive information.
The MDAI conference includes tracks on the topics of (i) data science, (ii) machine learning, (iii) data privacy, (iv) aggregation funcions, (v) human decision making, and (vi) graphs and (social) networks. The conference has been since 2004 a forum for researchers to discuss last results into these areas of research.
Previous conferences were celebrated in Barcelona (2004, 2013), Tsukuba (2005), Tarragona (2006), Kitakyushu (2007), Sabadell (2008), Awaji Island (2009), Perpinya (2010), Changsha (2011), Girona (2012), Tokyo (2014), Skovde (2015), St Julia de Loria (2016), Kitakyushu (2017), Mallorca (2018), Milan (2019).
MDAI is rated as a CORE B conference by the Computing Research and Education Association of Australasia - CORE.
LNAI Submission deadline: March 7th, 2020
LNAI Acceptance notification: May, 2nd, 2020
Final version of LNAI accepted papers: May 22nd, 2020
Early registration: June 9th, 2020
Conference: September 2 - 4, 2020
*Submission and Publication*
Original technical contributions are sought. Contributions will be selected on the basis of their quality. Papers should not exceed 12 pages in total (using LNCS/LNAI style). Proceedings with accepted papers will be published in the LNAI/LNCS series (Springer-Verlag).
We will also publish additional proceedings in a USB memory with a later deadline.
- DS track. Data science is the science of data. Its goal is to explain processes and objects through the available data. The explanation is expected to be objective and suitable to make predictions. The ultimate goal of the explanations is to make informed decisions based on the knowledge extracted from the data. Original contributions on methods, models, and tools for data science are sought.
- DP Track. Data privacy track. Privacy-preserving data mining, privacy enhancing technologies, and statistical disclosure control provide tools to avoid disclosure, and/or have a good balance between disclosure risk and data utility and security. Original contributions on aspects related to data privacy are sought.
- AGOP Track. Aggregation functions. Functions to aggregate data appear in several contexts. They are used for decision making and information fusion. Data science and artificial intelligence systems need these functions to summarize information, improve data quality and help in decision processes. Original contributions on aggregation functions and their applications are sought.
- DM Track. Human decision making. Decision making is a pervasive problem in intelligent systems, and decisions are to be made in scenarios where uncertainty is common. Most mathematical models for decision making under risk and uncertainty provide optimal decisions under certain constraints. Experience and studies show that these rational decision making models diverge from the typical approach human use to make decisions.
- GSN Track. Graphs and (social) networks track. Graphs are often a convenient way to represent data. Social networks is a paradigmatic case. Algorithms and functions to process graphs and to extract information and knowledge from them are of high relevance in data science. Original contributions on graph analysis are sought.
- RS Track. Recommendation and search track. Searching and recommending online information/items to users deals with both the subjectivity related to the user's needs and the uncertainty and vagueness that characterize the retrieval process, in particular on the Web and on social media where huge amounts of new contents are generated every day. For these reasons, original contributions on search and recommendation algorithms and applications are sought

NEWS By Fozzie Jun 06, 2014 at 7:18am (EST)
It's a sad day for Kingdom Hearts fans as Square Enix has announced that there won't be any new information about Kingdom Hearts III at this year's E3.
Square Enix exec Shinji Hashimoto let fans in on the bad news in a recent interview with Famitsu. This news comes just after the release of the new Kingdom Hearts 2.5 HD ReMIX trailer which had fans wondering what goodies Square Enix had in store for next week's E3 festivities.
Hashimoto also stated they won't be releasing any new information on Final Fantasy XV either.
On a positive note though, Hashimoto stated that Square Enix is "preparing for an event after E3 to make new announcements."
Hopefully this means Square Enix is working hard to finish up both titles so that we don't have to wait too long to play them, but in any case, this is definitely not the news we wanted to hear.
Special thanks to Sqexgal for the heads up. | <urn:uuid:7c7a7cf3-b9c0-4a60-8155-c0eaa28aeff1> | CC-MAIN-2019-09 | http://www.kingdomheartsunion.com/news/2503/dont-expect-any-new-info-on-kingdom-hearts-iii-at-e3-says-square-enix/ | 2019-02-19T19:56:57Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-09/segments/1550247491141.23/warc/CC-MAIN-20190219183054-20190219205054-00548.warc.gz | en | 0.957966 | 216 |

If you take Manchester City chief executive Ferran Soriano at his word, City are no longer interested in participating in the summer transfer market.
"We have a new right-back, a new holding midfielder and we will have a new central defender and that’s it. We don’t need to sign new players for the sake of it," he told reporters recently.
Of course, necessity can be the mother of reinvention when it comes to these sorts of sentiments. City signed Martin Demichelis very late in last summer's transfer window after Vincent Kompany was injured in the opening match of the 2013-14 Premier League season.
Assuming that City manager Manuel Pellegrini's team maintains sufficient health, though, it seems safe to accept Soriano's pronouncement as true.
Besides, there are still some loose ends to tie up, as the following slides will attest. | <urn:uuid:2d0032d6-dc3e-482f-8aae-8ca6e9023612> | CC-MAIN-2015-48 | http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2149940-manchester-city-transfer-news-and-rumours-tracker-week-of-august-4 | 2015-11-25T11:03:44Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-48/segments/1448398445080.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20151124205405-00157-ip-10-71-132-137.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.963134 | 185 |
Goodleaf Tree Climbing, located in Ryde on the Isle of Wight, was started by New Zealander Paul McCathie in 2015. In this blog, Paul shares some information about why Goodleaf Tree Climbing is a popular Isle of Wight adventure activity, and how you can get involved.
No one knows what recreational tree climbing is…
… and they’re curious! Recreational tree climbing with Goodleaf means climbing into the branches of a magnificent oak tree, using rope and harness and wearing a helmet. Many people expect a high ropes course; walking from tree to tree on wires, whereas Goodleaf is all about climbing in one tree.
The experience takes place in small groups of up to eight people and the emphasis is on fun. We provide everything climbers need including teaching our special climbing technique. If you’ve been rock or wall climbing, you’ll love learning something different.
Recreational tree climbing with Goodleaf is a chance to experience a unique place that very few people ever get to visit – the canopy of a tree. You climb at your own pace. There’s no one waiting at the bottom of your rope for their turn; you can tailor your climb to suit you.
Families can tree climb together
A visit to the Island is all about getting away from the mainland hustle to spend time together. Many families climb together at Goodleaf. We ask that all our climbers are age eight and over, so it’s a great activity to do when the kids are older and not so keen on spending the entire holiday building sandcastles!
It’s fascinating to see the role reversal within families – we get the kids teaching Mum and Dads (or grandparents) how to tie knots or reminding them what to do when they need to come down from the top of the tree.
It’s a low-tech fresh air fix
There’s no tech at Goodleaf (well, you can take photos if you want to!) and we like it that way. We’ve chosen a magnificent tree for climbing and the entire session takes place in the gorgeous surroundings of Appley Park, a green oasis just back from the beach in Ryde. You can’t help but get the fresh air fix everyone needs from a tree climbing session at Goodleaf.
Passionate about the experience
Goodleaf is a small family run business. We’re passionate about what we do and about making sure our climbers have the best experience we can offer. We pride ourselves on our warm welcome and our friendly, experienced instructors, many of whom have years of experience teaching outdoor learning.
It’s not all about the tree climbing
It’s true. In fact if you read the reviews on Trip Advisor you might think that people come to Goodleaf just for the flapjack! We provide refreshments with our two hour tree climbing sessions and, as well as a cup of tea, coffee or squash, we offer homemade Goodleaf flapjack. Full of oats and chocolate chunks, it’s the perfect way to re-fuel after climbing and sometimes we think our climbers come back year on year just to get another piece!
We’re a seasonal business
Goodleaf Tree Climbing is open from Easter through to the end of October half term each year. As well as running the two hour tree climbing sessions for families, we offer tree climbing for large groups. For those who want to climb higher, we run an intensive three day tree climbing course certified by Lantra and you can even camp overnight in the treetops. To find out more, go to www.goodleaf.co.uk.

Picking a trip that will help you not only relax and take a break, but also help you achieve your lifestyle goals can be tricky. There are 3 key factors to consider. Firstly, your current situation, secondly what sort of holiday and destination you like, and thirdly what you want to achieve.
Stressed out and Overworked – If you’re feeling this way and find very little time to chill out and have time for yourself then there are two possible options. A holiday to unwind or a holiday to re-focus and make some lifestyle changes. If you’re simply looking to unwind then I’d recommend going alone or with just one or two friends who have the same objective and ideally a cool, calm demeanour to help you chill and take it easy. Then pick something you like a find relaxing. That could be a beach holiday reading a book, walking in the mountains or spa holiday somewhere chic. Pick something you’ll love and make sure you minimise the amount of time you spend checking email and your mobile, or ideally ditch them completely.
If you’re looking to make some changes then you’ll want to use similar criteria to choose your trip, but research and find companies out there like ourselves who use coaches or some sort of other lifestyle change professional to help you clarify your goals and priorities, identify the blocks in your way and help you commit to taking appropriate action on your return home. When going on this sort of trip it’s often best to go on your own. You’ll still meet lots of other cool people who are in a similar situation and whilst our friends often have the best of intentions, they can’t help but influence your choices which may not be helpful in this situation.
Make sure you get away for at least 10 days as it can often take up to a week before you’re really able to wind down and get into the holiday vibe.
Lacking in focus or direction – If this is how you feel then the second set of recommendations above will also work for you. Choose a destination and activities that will inspire you and help get your creative energy flowing, and make sure you go with a reputable personal development/travel company that can provide the stimulus and support that you need.
In need of a health kick – If you’re feeling under the weather and lacking in energy, or keep getting sick, then you’re probably in need of a serious health-kick. Our bodies can only take so much and just like your car need a regular service to keep them in proper working order. There are lot’s of great health and spa type holidays available now, so you shouldn’t have too much trouble finding something to suit your budget. Pick something where everything’s already included and planned for you, especially your meals, so you can’t wimp out and let yourself off the hook. Ideally your trip will include a detox diet with meals and supplements supplied, some kind of bowel cleansing regime to help flush out toxins, some kind of restorative physical activity such as yoga, pilates, tai-chi etc, and some focused relaxation activity such as meditation. This combination will help give you a massive boost, but remember, you’ll need to continue this routine on your return for maximum benefit.
Again, make sure you get away for at least a week to 10 days to get the full effect.
My final tip to get the most out of your trip, whatever your situation and aims are, is to plan your support and structure to help you maintain the changes before you depart on your trip. If you wait until you get back then there is a greater chance of getting busy and life just getting in the way and your efforts fading on your return. So plan to succeed and make sure everything you need to keep up the change on your return is in place before you depart! Good luck and enjoy! | <urn:uuid:2a65da2a-5393-4c0e-9d3f-053d982075a4> | CC-MAIN-2015-22 | http://www.adventurebeyond.net/adventurer-news/ | 2015-05-30T02:09:23Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-22/segments/1432207930866.66/warc/CC-MAIN-20150521113210-00154-ip-10-180-206-219.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.952901 | 808 |

Choosing light fixtures that suit your home is truly challenging. You have to resolve issues like inadequate daylight and limited floor space. How can you turn your house from a gloomy to a bright and cheerful place? What to do if your space has an abundant rays of natural light? Continue reading for tips on how to achieve the perfect lighting for your home.
- Set Your Sights High With Striking Ceiling Fixtures
Infusing an eye-catching ceiling fixture will bring the attention of your guest upward and open up space. It can add effects and create drama in your room. They will have an optical illusion that space is larger than its actual size. But this does not mean that you will refuse all other sources. Ceiling fixtures will not help much if the natural light is not enough to lighten the room. Without the support of natural light, ceiling lights alone is hideous and is not capable of enhancing your room.
- Powder Room Is Good With Overhead Lighting And Sconces
A sconce is a candle holder that is attached to a wall with an ornamental bracket. This is believed to be suitable for powder room together with overhead lighting. Overhead lighting alone can have a harsh and overpowering effect that can make the room feel much smaller. A sconce can bring balance to your space and make it appealing when combined with overhead light, lamp and natural light.
- Pick The Lampshade Carefully
Lampshades are not just for decorative accents, they also create a diversion when it comes to the quality of light coming out of the lamp. Hence, it is vital to know your lighting goal when selecting a shade.
As most of us know, lighter lamp shades will have a brighter effect in the room while darker shades will be more contained focusing the light above and below the fixture.
However, it is okay to drop out of the idea of traditional lampshades, especially if you aim for your room to be bright and glowing. You can either opt for Edison-style lamps where bulbs (which by the way, use power resistor) are left exposed or choose lights with glass or mesh shades.
- Incandescent Light To Warm Up
The goal of picking lighting is to create a cozy feeling of home where you can find comfort and make you want to stay for a long time. To achieve that kind of feels, you may want to opt for incandescent bulbs (which by the way use a power resistor) that emit a softer, warm light. Yellow light sends signals to your body to relax for better sleep at night.
- Remember Task Lighting
You also need to consider the areas of the house that requires focused light for a task like a desk where you study. Your kitchen is also a busy area where you need task lighting. Why not install an under-cabinet light to make it easy for you to work on your countertop.
- Mirror Hanging On The Wall
Having mirrors in your home makes it appear larger. Not only that, mirrors that are placed directly across the window will make an illusion that you have a multitude of windows.
Choosing lighting that will fit your style and needs can be quite daunting. But putting effort to have great lighting can give you satisfaction and will make your home a comfortable place to live in. | <urn:uuid:5a732d7b-8b50-4847-9d45-ac016bcb8eff> | CC-MAIN-2020-45 | https://todayznews.com/how-to-find-the-best-lighting-for-your-home.html | 2020-10-26T12:34:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891228.40/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026115814-20201026145814-00247.warc.gz | en | 0.933616 | 669 |
Sun has quickly turned to rain in Cannes, but it hasn’t dampened our spirits. Delegates are out in full force to make the most of their last day at MIPIM.
We started the conference in style on Monday at our annual Go Dutch Dinner, welcoming 150 people for an evening of informal networking, food and drinks on the beach. It’s always the best way to start the week and it’s hard to believe that we’re now in the final stretch.
In our last 24 hours we want to take the opportunity to reflect on what’s been an enormously positive week, and one we hope will lead to positive outcomes for everyone. We’ve spoken to some of our key contacts in the industry to find out what they’ve been up to this week, and what they’re looking forward to in the next 24 hours.
Michael Riordan, Managing Director of Linesight UK, said: “Myself and my colleagues Rhonda and Andrew have been in Cannes this week, using the opportunity to meet with key clients and develop some new contacts.
“Our UK team are working on multiple high-profile projects in the commercial and PRS residential sector in Manchester, so we were looking forward to hearing about the latest trends and news from the city at the opening reception at the Manchester Pavilion on Tuesday.
“Important events for us included the hotel investment trends discussion on Wednesday afternoon and the senior living discussion on urban space where we compared notes with our peers and clients on the trends we can expect to see in the hospitality market in London, and our two senior living schemes on site in London and Devon this year.”
And there is still plenty to enjoy in the 24 hours, particularly if you’re invited to the best Thursday night parties. Trevor Goode, Partner and Head of the Planning and Public Sector team at Ashurst, added: “MIPIM provides a chance to facilitate networking between our clients, particularly at our client focused dinners and at our annual Ashurst cocktail party, this year on Thursday 15th March, which is attended by a range of our UK and pan-European clients.”
Looking back, one of the biggest conversations of the week has been London Festival of Architecture’s Elephant Campaign, which tackles discriminatory behaviour in the built environment industry and encourages industry leaders to commit to positive change. It’s a conversation that has dominated countless lunches, cocktail reception and dinners, and we’re feeling encouraged by the number of people proudly sporting their elephant badges along the Croisette!
We hope you’ve all had a successful MIPIM 2018 so far. We’ll be back in the coming days to share our top photos from the week, as well as some advice on how to tackle the all-important follow up back home – it’s not over yet… | <urn:uuid:559f02e8-8359-4b19-b962-244643a8aa18> | CC-MAIN-2019-39 | https://maximisingmipim.com/2018/03/15/reflections-on-mipim/ | 2019-09-15T14:24:39Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-39/segments/1568514571506.61/warc/CC-MAIN-20190915134729-20190915160729-00283.warc.gz | en | 0.946804 | 596 |
Federal law requires that the Environmental Protection Agency independent scientific reviews of the effects of its proposed regulations before implementing those regulations. But the bureaucrats in the Obama administration don’t believe laws apply to them, and the EPA routinely refuses to disclose any of the bad effects its rules would have on the economy. They just make the bad news disappear.
The EPA’s Clean Air Scientific Advisory Committee is meeting through Thursday in Chapel Hill, N.C., to debate its scientific and policy assessments of the proposed new ozone rule. Unfolding evidence says that this panel should be disbanded and EPA forced to obey the law and tell the whole truth before making any new rules.
Rep. Lamar Smith, R-Texas, chairman of the House science, Space and Technology Committee, uncovered the inner workings of EPA’s bad-news shredding system in testimony from members of the EPA’s own committee.
Dr. Roger McClellan, the former chairman of the clean air panel, stated, “I am not aware that CASAC has ever advised EPA to take account of the role of socioeconomic factors, unemployment or other risk factors influencing the health endpoints under consideration.”
EPA’s bad-news shredder works with two slashing blades: keeping CASAC members in the dark and making them dependent lapdogs through massive EPA grants.
Former EPA Assistant Administrator for the Office of Air and Radiation Jeff Holmstead testified: “It appears that, until recently, most CASAC members were not aware that they have a statutory obligation to advise the head of EPA on certain issues [bad effects of regulation]. … As far as I know, CASAC had never fulfilled this requirement as it relates to the ozone standard or any other.”
Read the whole thing to find out how much money the panel members on the “independent” CASAC receive in funding from the EPA. We’re talking millions of dollars. It’s almost like they’re being bribed into keeping their mouths shut about the harm EPA regs are unleashing on the economy. | <urn:uuid:4f36dd2f-9df2-4036-b3b9-2ceb55124662> | CC-MAIN-2015-22 | http://lonelyconservative.com/2014/03/how-the-epa-makes-bad-news-about-its-regulations-disappear/ | 2015-05-29T16:17:12Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-22/segments/1432207930256.3/warc/CC-MAIN-20150521113210-00065-ip-10-180-206-219.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.943641 | 426 |
I really just can't do art. It's not what I want to do, not what I want to pursue. I want to go into film, youtube videos and stuff like that. Writing as well. I just really use this site for talking with my friends now honestly, and I just don't want you guys to get your hopes up to high about me. I love you guys but I want to focus on what I want to do. Maybe I'll put up that warriors fanfic, maybe I won't. I rarely use this site anymore honestly and I just go on to look at my inbox.
So although I might put out suggestions, don't expect much from me. I am working on doing what I really want to do. | <urn:uuid:12103bcf-0c13-4b80-aa33-c2b3351bce93> | CC-MAIN-2015-48 | http://aquaswiftarrow.deviantart.com/ | 2015-12-01T12:47:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-48/segments/1448398467979.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20151124205427-00240-ip-10-71-132-137.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.992525 | 152 |
Today I was hoping I would be down at least a pound but I was actually UP. I think this can be attributed to two things 1) switching back to evening meetings and 2) retaining water and feeling bloated. But for once I'm OK with being up because being up on the scale doesn't mean that I actually gained weight! I know I didn't! I did everything right - tracked every day (23 straight days in a row!) and I worked out (earned 31 activity points!), so there is no mathematical way those 1.6 pounds are real. So I'll just wait until next week to see my real progress from last week.
WW Week 1 START: 10/30
(11/6) Week 2: -2.8 (happy)
(11/13) Week 3: -0.8 (disappointed...thought it should be more)
(11/20) Week 4: -0.2 (happy..I had a tough week!)
(11/27) Week 5: -1.6 (5 pound star!)
(12/04) Week 6: +0.2 (WTH because I had a great week! Earned 27 APs!)
(12/11) Week 7: 0 (Maintained...really?)
(12/17) Week 8: -5.2 (10 pound star!)
(12/24) Week 9: -0.2 (yay, kept that flu weight off!)
(12/31) Week 10: -3.4 (5% award!)
(1/8) Week 11: +1.6 (OK because I know I didn't really gain!)
Total WW loss: -12.4 pounds
I'm going to keep working hard like I have been and it will come off, at the rate my body wants to take it off. Sure I wanted to see a loss today but sometimes the results don't come exactly when you are looking for them.
Until later, happy living! | <urn:uuid:02caf3d7-6d35-4718-83d4-e631a34a74f2> | CC-MAIN-2018-05 | http://runningtowardhealthy.blogspot.com/2013/01/ww-week-11-weigh-in.html | 2018-01-21T08:13:46Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-05/segments/1516084890394.46/warc/CC-MAIN-20180121080507-20180121100507-00515.warc.gz | en | 0.979185 | 416 |
I love this post about focusing on what is important to you and your kids when choosing your battles by my writing friend Jennifer DiCamillo. Jennifer is the author of 37 books and has won well over 200 writing awards. She is a mother of five and grandmother to 8. She lives and writes in a haunted hollow in the Missouri Ozarks. Her pets include a 4 lb Yorkie named Pixie and a blue eyed paint stallion named W.C..
Picking Your Parenting Battles by Jennifer DiCamillo
I am a mother of five. I grew up in the seventies when Daisy Duke shorts were in. However, for my four daughters, I preferred to keep their butt cheeks covered. That was my first rule. But my girls are really long legged, so I had to draw another line. Shorts must be at least three inches long from the center seam. At least, that insured covering of the buttocks and other private areas. But then I decided fingertip length was better. You see, as a parent, you have to be flexible. If something doesn’t work, try again, make a new rule.
Then came the prom dress dilemma. I’m frustrated by the strapless and spaghetti strapped formals offered, as if sleeves were not used on modern clothing at all. I fought this battle, made a dress from scratch that was perfectly modest; and when prom pictures came back, my daughter was the only one who didn’t have a dress to match EVERY OTHER GIRL IN HER CLASS. My daughter forgave me, but I haven’t forgiven myself. I stood strong on the basis of modesty, and the fear of her losing her virginity on prom night. When in reality, both issues were character issues, not reliant on the straps or lack of sleeves on a dress. So, I actually lost the battle that I won at the time. I’ve cried repeatedly over what I think was a big mistake.
In a similar issue, I inspected my kids before church, sent them out to the car, climbed in, and half way to the church one day, I looked in my rearview mirror to see one of my daughters, after inspection, had added a poofy ponytail on the center top of her head, and let her sister draw (with an ink pen) a rather stylish headband across her forehead. Complete with an impressive starburst in the center. I was livid. I ranted about respecting God and self and embarrassing your family on top of all else.
It so happened that my daughter had to speak in front of the congregation that day…on judging other people. Or rather, not judging. I learned that she’d been a victim of a very churchy woman who didn’t like the length of her dresses, or how she dressed, period. After she spoke, eloquently on the subject I must add, many women approached me, said they loved the example my daughters all set. I complained about the headband and ponytail, to hear woman after woman say, “If that’s the worst rebellion you have to contend with, thank God.”
So, I’m here to tell you, don’t let a hairdo, or even a funky headband be your undoing. Don’t let a dress become a mortal war between you and your daughter. Relationships are fragile and need nurtured. Pick your battles, give in a little, and maybe you’ll win the war and still be friends with your daughter(s) when it’s all said and done. | <urn:uuid:a30aa16f-92a9-48f7-9248-78109ddea6ac> | CC-MAIN-2018-09 | http://margoldill.com/practical-moms-unite-picking-your-parenting-battles-guest-post/ | 2018-02-21T02:54:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-09/segments/1518891813322.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20180221024420-20180221044420-00062.warc.gz | en | 0.976841 | 747 |

Courts are quite formal places.
Criminal, family and civil courts are held in a District or High Court. You can see what a criminal courtroom might look like in our criminal court section.
When the judge comes into or leaves the courtroom, you must stand up. In most courts you should call the judge ‘Your Honour’ or ‘Judge’.
In the High Court, Court of Appeal and Supreme Court you should call the judge ‘Your Honour’.
In the court room, you must not:
If you give evidence (tell the court what happened), you have to promise to tell the truth. You can choose to make a religious promise (an oath) or a non-religious promise (an affirmation).
If you’ve come out of the courtroom and you’re not sure what the next step is, ask court staff - they’re there to help. Staff will be wearing name badges. | <urn:uuid:1a20fb0b-874e-44db-91d1-6c54ab3aa6cb> | CC-MAIN-2018-34 | https://justiceprod2-justice.cwp.govt.nz/courts/going-to-court/what-to-expect-at-court/in-the-court-room/ | 2018-08-22T00:01:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-34/segments/1534221219197.89/warc/CC-MAIN-20180821230258-20180822010258-00634.warc.gz | en | 0.944237 | 197 |

March 9, 2018:
My youngest daughter Alva thinks it's so fun with kittens again and participates in everything to do. She has chosen the names of the kittens and then the litter has been named and theme: << Alvas choice >>.
Girl 1 has been named Fia - SBI b / chocolate point. She weighs 175g. Girl 2 is named Mia and is seal point - SBI n with a weight of 160g. And the last girl 3 got the name Sofia with a weight of 160g. She is the SBI b - chocolate point or SBI c - lilac point.
When we were to take the pictures today, CH NO*Ped Alba Winter Princess insists on lying in a closet in the bathroom, so then she is just allowed to do it. (a little while at least). See new photos of them in their album.

Ideally every team should maintain a bell curve. That being said, this was a recent discussion I had with one of the seniors. ‘Freshers are lenient, reckless & lack professionalism/experience’ he said. But that is the whole point. Everyone was a fresher once. Freshers are enthusiastic to embark on their professional journey, are not bounded by professional processes, can think out-of-the-box. Just that they need proper guidance, relevant training & due diligence.
Micro Management kills the trust. Or it proves that there is no trust at the first place. And Freedom breeds innovation. It is when you give people the power & the freedom that ideas originate. And one out of five/ten ideas works out to be superb. It is when you trust in your team that they perform. When they know you are backing them. You believe in them & in their work. In their potential. A strong manager have full trust is his/her team – it is about the tasks, work and the value-adds, innovation. It is not about ‘controlling’, it’s about ‘managing’. Ever had a micro-management incident in your team? How did it impact the team morale? Or how a strong manager built the trust & team pulse?
A strong manager backing the team is the foundation to a successful team. A team succeeds when you entrust them to deliver & have full confidence in their caliber. It’s like a family, no one should point at your team for weakness 😉 at the same time internally you might need to introspect & keep improving. What say?
Knowledge about fundamental Testing concepts is necessary to crack an interview. But now-a-days only knowledge is not enough. Interviews are not just about the theory anymore. Every interviewer is looking for candidates who have practical exposure to different kind of situations and is able to handle them effectively. Most of the companies will have it as one of their selection criteria. And yes, it doesn’t depend on the technology. For every technology there will be situations that an experienced professional knows how to tackle. In this article, we will look at some of the situational FAQ commonly asked in a testing interview. But we will need your help here. It is just a beginning, please comment any situational question that you might have faced in a recent or any past interview. This would help us to collate an informative list for the Testing community. | <urn:uuid:38e99e8e-54cb-48b1-89e6-59be379d1c1c> | CC-MAIN-2021-17 | http://www.softwaretestingstudio.com/tag/team-management/ | 2021-04-18T20:05:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-17/segments/1618038860318.63/warc/CC-MAIN-20210418194009-20210418224009-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.966201 | 511 |

If you are experiencing a dental emergency please call one of our offices immediately for advice on how to proceed. We make every effort to see patients with emergencies the same day when necessary and have an after-hours answering service for contacting the dentist on call.
Dental emergencies can occur at the most inconvenient time. From tooth damage to a knocked out tooth, in most cases, your dental emergency should be handled by your dentist at Corbin Dental for the best possible outcome. Corbin Dental treats dental emergencies for both current and prospective patients in any of our three New York area dental offices. We will evaluate your immediate needs and see you the same day when deemed necessary.
Dr. Bruce Corbin and Dr. Richard Corbin recommend that you contact our office for advice to avoid additional damage or dental problems. There are a few measures that can be taken at home to minimize pain and stabilize the situation. In most situations where trauma has occurred, the use of a cold compress on the outside of the cheek to reduce swelling and an over the counter pain medication can minimize discomfort.
Here are some additional tips for managing a dental emergency until you can be seen:
- Chipped or damaged tooth: the need for a same day appointment will depend on the severity of the damage. If it is a significant chip and you can recover the piece of tooth, wrap it in wet gauze if available and bring with you to our office.
- Tooth pain: sudden or throbbing pain can indicate a range of dental problems or infection and should be addressed by your Corbin dentist as soon as possible. Contact our office and we will discuss your symptoms to determine the best course of action or the need for immediate attention.
- Knocked out tooth: call your local Corbin Dental office immediately in the event of a knocked out tooth. If possible, recover the tooth and place in a container of warm milk or hold in the mouth between the cheek and gums. We may be able to place the tooth back in the socket and support it with a small brace to allow for reattachment to occur.
- Broken dental crown: a broken crown can be repaired or replaced, depending on the location and extent of the damage. Contact our office to determine the level of urgency and schedule an appointment. | <urn:uuid:a1a6f94a-8130-4591-9b22-1389ed5a4dc9> | CC-MAIN-2020-29 | https://www.corbindental.com/dental-services/general-dentistry/emergency-dentistry/ | 2020-07-10T07:08:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-29/segments/1593655906214.53/warc/CC-MAIN-20200710050953-20200710080953-00427.warc.gz | en | 0.912151 | 462 |
A day in town.
A bus ride into Galway, what a busy town. Well I suppose it is Saturday and sunny. We get stopped by a hen do group with a to do list, because Brian is wearing socks and sandals today. Their inflatable man seemed a little worse for wear.
Galway is a lovely town with a small Saturday market, but also a medieval music festival. First we find these ladies playing outside one of the churches.
Then we visit the museum to see the instrument makers display, and then the Institute of Mechanics to hear a talk about horns.
The talk was packed and very interesting, with demonstrations of replica horns dating to 1000 years BC. At the time the original instruments we made the people of Ireland could caste the horns from bronze, a rare skill apparently. The speaker was very engaging explain where they had found the information and how they fitted into Irish legends. He was also very accomplished and being able to play tunes on horns with no tuning mechanism.
After another stroll around the very busy shops we caught a bus back to Salthill for dinner and the football - probably less said about that the better! | <urn:uuid:913a02f1-49a5-494e-9646-d4f506cfdcfc> | CC-MAIN-2022-21 | https://liz.two-drifters.co.uk/saturday-26th-may/ | 2022-05-26T08:59:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-21/segments/1652662604495.84/warc/CC-MAIN-20220526065603-20220526095603-00113.warc.gz | en | 0.9822 | 234 |

Viking Way reopened following head-on collision
A head-on collision closed Viking Way for more than an hour Wednesday evening.
The collision occurred at about 7 p.m. between Scandia Road and State Route 308. Poulsbo Fire and Kitsap County Sheriff's deputies responded.
Poulsbo Fire spokeswoman Jody Matson said a 19-year-old Poulsbo woman was motoring north on Viking Way in a Ford Taurus when a southbound SUV crossed the centerline and struck her vehicle. The SUV was driven by a 44-year-old Silverdale woman.
Both drivers were taken to Harrison Medical Center for evaluation, but Matson said neither appeared seriously injured.
"Miraculously, both were only minor injuries," Matson said.
The vehicles sustained severe front end damage and were towed.
Viking Way was closed until 8:30 p.m. and traffic was diverted along Scandia Road. | <urn:uuid:17c8e70b-116d-4f31-be89-2965e83b20a6> | CC-MAIN-2015-11 | http://www.northkitsapherald.com/news/82220017.html | 2015-02-28T05:24:21Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-11/segments/1424936461650.2/warc/CC-MAIN-20150226074101-00294-ip-10-28-5-156.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.971626 | 219 |
Exploring direct and indirect antecedents of self-reported ecological behaviors
The current study examined the direct and indirect antecedents of participation in ecological behavior. Specifically, it was hypothesized that promotion and prevention orientation would both significantly predict ecological behavior, and that hope and optimism would partially mediate these relationships. The results revealed that a promotion orientation significantly predicted pro-social behavior, but the hypothesized mediation was not significant. However, post-hoc analyses revealed that hope predicted pro-social behavior and that the relationship was mediated by a promotion orientation. Implications, limitations, and directions for future research are also discussed. | <urn:uuid:eb550394-2372-43ff-bc1a-641b613ba263> | CC-MAIN-2014-49 | http://repositories.tdl.org/asu-ir/handle/2346.1/30000 | 2014-11-20T20:56:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-49/segments/1416400372202.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20141119123252-00251-ip-10-235-23-156.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.963118 | 123 |
Head of the River Historic District
Houses on the New Bedford side of the river
|Location||Acushnet and New Bedford, Massachusetts|
|Area||16.5 acres (6.7 ha)|
|NRHP reference #||09000965|
|Added to NRHP||December 2, 2009|
The Head of the River Historic District is a historic district encompassing a village area at the head of navigation of the Acushnet River, which separates Acushnet and New Bedford, Massachusetts. The village is centered at the junction of Tarkin Hill Road, River Road, and Mill Road in New Bedford, and Main Street in Acushnet. The area went through two significant periods of development: the first was in the late 18th and early 19th century, and the second was in the early 20th century. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.
The Head of the River Historic District is centered on the Acushnet River's head of navigation, a short way north of its mouth into New Bedford Harbor. The river is spanned by a bridge whose oldest portion is a stone-arch span that predates 1850, and was widened with steel spans in 1959. The bridge carries Main Street in Acushnet on the east side, and becomes Tarkin Hill Road on the west side. The border between Acushnet and New Bedford comes up the river from the south, follows the bridge west, and then runs north on Mill Road, just west of the river. The oldest buildings of the district are clustered close to the bridge, while later development extends eastward along Main Street in Acushnet. The district contains only a few buildings in New Bedford on Tarkin Hill Road and Mill Road, with most of the remaining properties in Acushnet fronting those roads and Main Street.
Head of the River was one of the principal points of early development by colonial settlers in what is now Acushnet, and saw its first significant period of growth after the American Revolutionary War. Acushnet was originally part of Dartmouth, then New Bedford and Fairhaven, before incorporating in 1860. The oldest surviving buildings in Head of the River date to the 1780s, including the 1-1/2 story Swift House (10 Mill Road) and the Dillingham House (19 Main Street) as examples of this early period. The building at 17 Tarkin Hill Road, built c. 1800, is a rare commercial building from this period. The finest house from the period is the c. 1817 Hawes House at 17 Main Street. There are also several Greek Revival houses, but development languished in the area until the 20th century, when the Queen Anne house at 28 Main Street was built (c. 1900), along with a number of Craftsman and Dutch Colonial houses between then and about 1935.

$300 million each day that the government is closed for business. Many Americans have voiced their frustrations with the fallout from the shutdown on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter using the hash tag #DearCongress. Here, Bill Moyers shares his own thoughts on the shutdown, and the resulting sabotage of democracy.This week’s government shutdown has consequences for all of us, costing an estimated
“When the president refused to buckle to this extortion, they threw their tantrum,” Bill says. “Like the die-hards of the racist South a century and a half ago, who would destroy the union before giving up their slaves, so would these people burn down the place, sink the ship.” He goes on to tell us where the “reckless ambition” of the Republicans could lead us.
Bill Moyers: And now to the people who refuse to let democracy work. The people who hate government so much they’ve shut it down. Unable to abide by the results of democracy when they don’t win, they turned on it.
Republicans have now lost three successive elections to control the Senate and they’ve lost the last two presidential elections. Nonetheless, they fought tooth and nail to kill President Obama’s health care initiative. They lost that fight, but with the corporate wing of Democrats, they managed to bend it toward private interests.
So we should be clear on this, Obamacare, as it’s known, is deeply flawed. Big subsidies to the health insurance industry. A bonanza for lobbyists. No public option. And as The New York Times reported this week, “Millions of Poor Are Left Uncovered by Health Law.” Largely because states controlled by Republicans refuse to expand Medicaid.
As far as our bought and paid for legislative process goes, Obama’s initiative made it through the sausage factory. Yet even after both the House and Senate approved it, the president signed it, and the Supreme Court upheld it, the Republicans keep insisting on calling the law a “bill,” thumbing their noses and refusing to accept that it is enacted legislation.
Now they’re fighting to prevent it from being implemented. Here was their order of the day on Thursday from the popular right wing blog RedState.com:
“Congressmen, this is about shutting down Obamacare. Democrats keep talking about our refusal to compromise. They don’t realize our compromise is defunding Obamacare. We actually want to repeal it. This is it. Our endgame is to leave the whole thing shut down until the President defunds Obamacare. And if he does not defund Obamacare, we leave the whole thing shut down.”
Once upon a time when I was a young man working on Capitol Hill, it was commonplace that when a bill became law, everybody was unhappy with it. But you didn’t bring down the government just because it wasn’t perfect. You argue and fight and vote and then, due process having been at least raggedly served, on to the next fight.
That was a long time ago. Long before the Tea Party minority, armed with huge sums of secret money from rich donors, sucked the last bit of soul from the Grand Old Party of Abraham Lincoln. They became delusional. Then rabid. Like this:
Senator Steve King: If Obamacare is ever implemented and enforced, we will never recover from it. It is an unconstitutional takings of God-given American liberty.
Bill Moyers: That’s false, of course. Just like those right-wing talking points that keep grinding through the propaganda mills of Fox News:
Ainsley Earhardt on Fox and Friends: Thanks to Obamacare, doctors will be forced to ask patients about their sex life, even if it has nothing to do with the medical treatment that they are seeking at the time.
Bill Moyers: Not true.
Michelle Malkin on Fox and Friends: That healthcare plan puts a discount on the lives of elderly people and would result in the redistribution of health away from the elderly and the infirm to other special favored interests and patients.
Bill Moyers: Again, not true. Nor is this, from the multi-millionaire fabulist Rush Limbaugh:
Rush Limbaugh from the Rush Limbaugh Show: What we now have is the biggest tax increase in the history of the world. Obamacare is just a massive tax increase, that all it is.
Bill Moyers: That’s just a tiny sample of the lies and misinformation perpetrated by the right with the song and dance compliance of its richly paid mouthpieces. Sarah Palin set the bar for truth at about ankle height with those fictitious “death panels” that she still insists will decide our rendezvous with the Grim Reaper.
Sarah Palin on Cashin' In: Of course there are death panels in there, but the important thing to remember is that’s just one aspect of this atrocious, unaffordable, cumbersome, burdensome, evil policy of Obama’s and that is Obamacare.
Bill Moyers: Despite what they say, Obamacare is only one of their targets. Before they will allow the government to reopen, they demand employers be enabled to deny birth control coverage to female employees. They demand Obama cave on the Keystone pipeline. They demand the watchdogs over corporate pollution be muzzled, and the big, bad regulators of Wall Street sent home. Their ransom list goes on and on. The debt ceiling is next. They would have the government default on its obligations and responsibilities.
When the president refused to buckle to their extortion, they threw their tantrum. Like the die-hards of the racist South a century and a half ago, who would destroy the Union before giving up their slaves, so would these people burn the place down, sink the ship of state, and sow economic chaos to get their way. This says it all, they even shuttered the Statue of Liberty.
Watching all this from London, the noted commentator Martin Wolf, of the capitalist friendly Financial Times, says “America flirts with self-destruction.”
This man is the biggest flirt of all, Newt Gingrich . It was Newt Gingrich who twenty years ago spearheaded the right-wing’s virulent crusade against the norms of democratic government. As Speaker of the House he twice brought about shutdowns of the federal government once, believe it or not, because he felt snubbed after riding on Air Force One with President Clinton and had to leave by the backdoor.
It was also Newt Gingrich , speaker Gingrich, who was caught lying to congressional investigators looking into charges of his ethical wrongdoing. His colleagues voted overwhelmingly, 395 to 28, to reprimand him. Pressure from his own party then prompted him to resign.
Yet even after his flame out, even after his recent bizarre race for the presidency bankrolled with money from admiring oligarchs, even after new allegations about his secret fundraising for right-wing candidates, Gingrich remains the darling of a fawning amnesic media.
Newt Gingrich on Crossfire: I’m Newt Gingrich on the right.
Bill Moyers: On CNN.com the other day he issued a call to arms to his fellow bomb-throwers, “…don’t cave on shutdown.”
At least let’s name this for what it is, sabotage of the democratic process. Secession by another means. And let’s be clear about where such reckless ambition leads.

Africa’s connectivity gap: Extending connectivity across Africa to unlock growth and opportunities.
Satellite Connectivity is one of the key areas in bringing connectivity to underserved areas. Shifting from delivering TV & Video to becoming ISP's, this sector is in for massive change.
Many in Africa, especially those in rural and ultra- rural areas, have missed out for too long now. Limited connectivity has meant that the majority cannot experience even the basic connectivity that the population in towns and cities now take for granted. In many cases, mobile connectivity has limited rural reach and can barely meet the growing demand.
Current challenges due to the Covid-19 situation and its impacts have shown the importance of connectivity for growth and stability. TechAfrica News, together with SES, will explore how this is changing and how they, and we, can unlock opportunities and continue to connect Africa.

I hope you are all enjoying the holidays! A fun story I thought I’d share. Back in 1999, Gladney celebrated our 25,000th adoption by buying a $25,000 bond as a scholarship for the child when they reach college age. Well it happened!
Evan is now attending college. He is running track and plans to go to medical school. Below is his thank you when his parents, Tom & Lori, told him about the scholarship.
"It has been 19 years since the 25,000th baby was adopted through Gladney and 19 years since I was born. I thank you so much for the scholarship.
I hope that I make the Gladney organization proud of the young man I have become and I am very thankful that I was adopted to the family I am today. They pushed me on the field of academics and nurtured me on the field of athletics, even if for them this was uncharted waters. Today they created a young man who is an excelling athlete at what some people call a "New Ivy" school. Who later on has hopes to go on to medical school. And then to follow in his parents footsteps and join the military. This path my life has taken is entirely because of the parents that Gladney matched me with. I would like to thank Gladney for the perfect match they created 19 years ago and also for the scholarship that is helping to pay for the enrichment of my education that my parents have so lovingly given me the opportunity to pursue. I hope Gladney is around for another 19 years so that I will be able to adopt from them, when it comes time for me to have kids.
Thank you again,
Evan, Son of Tom and Lori "
Like Evan said – I hope we are around another 19 years as well!
Have a wonderful holiday and thank you for your continued support! | <urn:uuid:09dbbcf3-73d7-4fbf-921b-f9ac5e915dfa> | CC-MAIN-2019-09 | https://blog.adoptionsbygladney.com/gladneys-25000th-goes-to-college | 2019-02-20T03:04:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-09/segments/1550247494424.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20190220024254-20190220050254-00372.warc.gz | en | 0.98735 | 383 |
The lady Lakers hosted their nearby but out of division rivals, the Newport Tigers. Sunapee came into the matchup on top of division 4 with an undefeated record of 8 and 0 while the Tigers held a record of 4 and 2. This has been another dominating season for Sunapee, in fact, the Lakers haven’t even allowed a run since mid April as they’ve shutout their opponents in 5 straight games. But these two teams had a very close game back on May 1st, when Sunapee barely came out on top, winning 1 to zero.
Congrats to Sunapee on the win as the lady Lakers sure do look like the favorites to win a division four championship for the third year in a row. | <urn:uuid:e0911233-d62f-45d9-97bc-904949970941> | CC-MAIN-2021-39 | https://ycnnow.com/2017/05/12/lady-lakers-softball-takes-on-the-newport-tigers/ | 2021-09-25T18:49:19Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-39/segments/1631780057733.53/warc/CC-MAIN-20210925172649-20210925202649-00139.warc.gz | en | 0.977871 | 152 |
For all of you YouTubers constantly attending seminars or watching tutorials on how to expand your subscriber/viewer base, the answer might be right under your serape. If you are not wearing a serape, well then, my friend, it might be time you did.
As simple as it might seem, most YouTubers overlook the immense value of capturing foreign language markets. Instead of focusing on accessibility of content, usually they strive for an abundance of content — starting channels to focus on “special access” behind-the-scenes footage that is uninteresting or by offering the same bullsh*t “video review” or “gamer channel” that every clown out there does. Look, if your comedy, your politics or your commentary is smart and broad, it should translate across a wide spectrum of cultures (like “Baywatch”).
Now it might be as simple as adding foreign language subtitles (but then you are cheating out your English-only deaf crowd), but the reality is that as the country becomes more diverse, if you really want to be a top entertainer in your field, you should really adopt a second language. The smart money is in Mandarin and Spanish.
As a prime example of multicultural appeal, take this Italian-language song that someone turned into a cute/catchy animated video. The title of it, Pulcino Pio, literally translates to chirping bird (unless it doesn’t … I’ll be honest, this isn’t one of those things I’m going to look up). It’s kind of a “Nyan Cat” for the pasta crowd. This video, in its various versions and translations, has almost 100 million views. Of course, most of those views come from the song in its native tongue, but translations into English and Greek have kicked in several million views as well. Imagine your videos translated into Greek and Italian and Spanish and Mandarin — why you could become a humongous international star and bridge the gap between the murderous, barbaric East and the sweet, good-natured West.
Still don’t believe me? SMOSH, with their 7 million+ subscribers has a channel en español now. You think you’re better than SMOSH? Think again. | <urn:uuid:f054effb-b5ce-4f0d-9a94-ba06aabee6bf> | CC-MAIN-2015-35 | http://newmediarockstars.com/2013/02/foreign-language-might-be-key-to-increasing-youtube-views-video/ | 2015-09-03T02:28:01Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-35/segments/1440645298065.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20150827031458-00236-ip-10-171-96-226.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.944664 | 479 |
DNVGL- OTG-08 GUIDANCE ON BOTTOM SURVEY
The Offshore Technical Guidance OTG-08 gives guidance on the execution of the Bottom Survey of mobile offshore units. The bottom survey of MOU’s may be carried out as in-water surveys by divers or ROV’s, supervised by a DNV GL surveyor. The March 2019 revision includes a new Section 5 suggesting to fulfill the MODU requirement for bottom survey by inspection from the inside of the hull. This may in principle be applicable to all units if the ability to fulfil the regulations are met. It will be particularly beneficial for units operating in areas of pour visibility or harsh environment where the traditional in-water survey by diver or ROV is less effective or challenging to carry out. It will also represent a significant opportunity of cost savings for owners.
DNVGL-OTG-09: REGULATORY COMPLIANCE OF OFFSHORE UNITS / Atlantic Canada Regions - Certifying Authority and Classification Services
In this publication we provide an overview of the regulatory regime for Mobile Offshore Units intended to operate in regions off the eastern coast of Canada. The document outlines the processes by which the requirements of the administrations for the relevant Canadian regions can be met through application of Class systematics. Furthermore, the document stipulates requirements related to a Classification notation PROD(CAN) for hydrocarbon processing facilities intended to operate in areas under the jurisdiction of the Canada-Newfoundland & Labrador Offshore Petroleum Board (C-NLOPB).
DNVGL-OTG-10: DP-CLASSED VESSELS WITH CLOSED BUS-TIE(S)
Advanced dynamic positioning (DP) vessels can now meet critical safety regulations while gaining operational flexibility, efficiency and cost savings through new design and monitoring methods.
Our guidance document provides guidance on how systems based on closed bus-ties configuration can be designed and verified with additional protection and monitoring facilities, ensuring integrity and robustness. We address the critical issue of testing by recommending test requirements that safeguard equipment from damage during testing, while at the same time obtaining sufficient evidence of robustness.
DNVGL-OTG-11: WELL TEST EQUIPMENT SURVEY
Well tests often happen at relatively short notice and in many cases it is an activity arranged by the operator with little input from the rig owner.
Notwithstanding, the owner is responsible for the installation and compliance with applicable classification requirements. Furthermore, the design and installation is usually performed by a 3rd party “well test company” likely utilizing temporary equipment for (a large share of) the well test installation. Conclusively, a well test installation involves many different disciplines and applicable classification rules.
The above described situation can in many cases lead to an inefficient process and in some cases confusion with regards to requirements (as included in DNVGL Rules for classification), roles and responsibilities. This underlines the need for guidance assisting the well test companies and the rig owners to get the design prepared appropriately.
DNVGL-OTG-12: MOBILE OFFSHORE UNITS – LIGHTWEIGHT MONITORING AND CONTROL DURING THE OPERATIONAL LIFE-CYCLE
To ensure units are being operated in compliance with the applicable rules and requirements, a rig owner need to know the exact lightweight and centre of gravity at all times. The vertical centre of gravity (VCG) of the unit directly influences stability and, therefore, safety and the unit needs to be operated within limiting VCG curves. Apart from complying with various regulators’ specific requirements, correct lightweight parameters are directly linked to the variable deck load (VDL) capacity of the unit and hence have an economical value as well.
This guidance document provides an overview of the various requirements relating to lightweight determination and advices on follow up during the lifetime for the various types of offshore units.
DNVGL-OTG-13: PREDICTION OF AIR GAP FOR COLUMN-STABILISED UNITS
New edition June 2019: The air gap of a column-stabilised unit is defined as the vertical distance between the underside of the deckbox and the wave elevation. Negative air gap will occur if the wave elevation is higher than the underside of the deckbox. In case of negative air gap, possible slamming loads needs to be accounted for to the bottom plating and/or vertical bulkheads of the deckbox structure. The objective of this guidance document is to define a recommended procedure for estimating air gap for column-stabilised units in compliance with DNVGL-OS-C103.
DNVGL-OTG-14: HORIZONTAL WAVE IMPACT LOADS FOR COLUMN STABILISED UNITS
New edition June 2019: The air gap of a column-stabilised unit is defined as the vertical distance between the underside of the deckbox and the wave elevation. Negative air gap will occur if the wave elevation is higher than the underside of the deckbox. In case of negative air gap, possible slamming loads needs to be accounted for to the bottom plating and/or vertical bulkheads of the deckbox structure. The object of this OTG is to provide a guidance document for the loads to be used to document structural and floating integrity of MOUs that are subject to horizontal wave impact with the deck in the design conditions in compliance with DNVGL-OS-C103.
DNVGL-OTG-15: IN-WATER TERMINALS
DNV GL has several standards and publications relevant for designing and constructing in-water terminals, fixed or floating. These documents do not however provide specific guidance on non-floating and non-concrete in-water terminals. This guidance document specifically addresses non-floating and non-concrete in-water terminals, clarifies what rules and standards would be applicable for design and to what extent verification might be carried out, either through a normal classification approach or through verification services.
DNVGL-OTG-16: Offshore loading units (July 2019)
This document has been developed in order to assist designers and owners of offshore loading units on how these types of units can be classed with DNV GL. It clarifies how to apply DNVGL-OS-E403 Offshore loading units, and which rules and standards that are applicable for design and construction of these units. It also provides guidance on the different phases for the classification of these units like: Approval of design, survey during construction and installation, certification, commissioning, class transfers and inspections while in service.
DNVGL-OTG-17: Inspectjion planning of MOUs in-service by use of RBI methodology (August 2019)
This document has been developed in order to assist owners of offshore units on how they can use risk based inspection (RBI) techniques for inspection planning of their units. When planned and executed correctly these techniques can replace traditional calendar based inspection intervals. The document gives guidance on how to apply the RBI methodology and how the plans should to be refined in-service.
DNVGL-OTG-18: GUIDANCE FOR LONG-TERM NEARSHORE MOORING (January 2019)
This document has been developed in order to address the issue of long term mooring near-shore. It is recognized that existing rules and standards do not fully address this issue, since our POSMOOR Rules are primarily based on offshore bottom mooring and shipping codes primarily consider short term mooring at shore. In order therefore to clarify our approach to the specific challenges of near/at shore mooring we have now issued this Offshore Technical Guidance, to be used as a supplement to our existing Offshore Standard DNVGL-OS-E301 Position Mooring Systems. The OTG addresses aspects specific to mooring in shallow water and mooring at jetties or quayside for a long period. The document is particularly relevant for floating LNG regasification units (FSRU), floating LNG liquefaction units (FLNG) taking gas from shore, and floating storage units, but may be used for any floating installation with an equivalent mooring arrangement.
DNVGL-OTG-19: GUIDANCE ON ASSESSMENT OF EARLY PHASE DESIGN AND NOVEL CONCEPTS AND TECHNOLOGY (August 2018)
This guidance has been developed to help designers and owners by showing a process that can be used for verification during early phase design or when developing novel concepts and technology. This process can be used during early concept phase through pre-FEED to FEED phase. By doing the right evaluations at an early phase significant savings may be achieved during subsequent design and construction phases.
DNVGL-OTG-20: USE OF CLASSIFICATION AS PART OF EU OFFSHORE SAFETY DIRECTIVE COMPLIANCE (Sept 2018)
This guidance has been developed to give owners of floating offshore unit an introduction to EU “Offshore Safety Directive”, and show how classification can be used as part of the work toward demonstrating compliance to the directive. It provides examples of how classification and verification can work together to ensure efficient processes for both scopes.
DNVGL-OTG-22: Guidelines for compliance with Brazilian shelf state regulations (July 2019)
In this publication we provide an overview of the regulatory regime for Mobile Offshore Units intended to operate in Brazilian continental shelf. The document outlines the main requirements of the Brazilian regulators and how many of these can be met through application of class systematics. Furthermore, the document stipulates requirements related to a Classification notations Oil production Unit(BRA), Oil production Installation(BRA), Oil storage Unit(BRA), Oil storage Installation(BRA), and PROD(BRA) for hydrocarbon processing facilities intended to operate in Brazilian continental shelf. | <urn:uuid:1618916d-d777-4845-9359-f74fcaa57941> | CC-MAIN-2019-43 | https://www.dnvgl.com/maritime/Offshore/technical-guidance-otg.html | 2019-10-19T07:15:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-43/segments/1570986692126.27/warc/CC-MAIN-20191019063516-20191019091016-00160.warc.gz | en | 0.913281 | 2,037 |
How to Remove Mold from a Pontoon Boat Carpet?
What to you recommend to remove Mold and Stain from a pontoon boat carpet?
For your convenience, I’ve highlighted the hyperlinks. Click on the hyperlink to get more information about the selected product.
It all depends on what the carpet is made from. Most pontoon boat carpets are made from synthetic fabrics like polypropylene or acrylic and can withstand more aggressive cleaning. If you’re not sure, you should do tests in a small inconspicuous spot first before tackling the entire carpet.
A good solution for cleaning is Fabri-Klean. It’s tough on dirt but gentle on all fabrics, natural as well as synthetic. It’s also environment friendly so no problems rinsing into the lake or onto the ground and it won’t hurt your skin although I still recommend wearing rubber or vinyl gloves to prevent it from removing skin oils and drying out your skin.
First wet the carpet. Next spray on some Fabri-Klean and agitate with a scrub brush. A deck brush or scrub brush on a long handle works best and is easiest to use. Allow to work for about 10 minutes and agitate again. Now you can rinse clean and allow to dry. If the boat is on a trailer, drop the tong so the boat is on an angle. This will cause the water to drain to the lowest point and accelerate the draining. You can also use a shop vac to suck up the excess water to accelerate drying. When dry, brush the carpet to lift and fluff up the carpet nap.
If you still have mold stains, mix a solution of 1 cup Fabri-Klean, 1 cup chlorine bleach in 1 gallon of warm water. Test first to make sure that it doesn’t remove the color. Spray onto the stains and scrub with a scrub brush. Let it work for about 20 minutes, scrub again, and rinse clean. You may have to repeat this process a couple of times. Allow to dry as above.
If this is an ongoing problem, you can spray the carpet with Canvas Shield to waterproof it, protect against UV and resist mold growth. It will also make future clean up much easier.
Thanks for your question,
The Skipper Recommends: | <urn:uuid:f1517869-762f-4d4c-8488-4315939ef911> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.auroramarine.com/main/ask-the-skipper/how-to-remove-mold-from-a-pontoon-boat-carpet/ | 2023-10-02T14:55:20Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233511000.99/warc/CC-MAIN-20231002132844-20231002162844-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.917616 | 489 |

What am I doing wrong here?!
Most people Ive encountered do not like the taste of fondant so they peel off the fondant, assuming to find a nice layer of butter cream underneath. However, that has not been the case for me. All the butter cream is coming up with the fondant, leaving no butter cream on the cake. I am using 1/2-1 in of butter cream. Is that not enough? Why is it pulling all the butter cream off?
you may be doing everything right. How many times have you made a fondant cake? maybe it was just a fluke.
the few times that I have made a fondant covered cake I only put a light crumb coat on the cake, then a thin layer of buttercream, probably about 1/4 inch thick. then put on the fondant. since everyone peels off the fondant, unless if it's homemade Marshmallow fondant (that kids and people with a serious sweet tooth will eat.)
but to counter the lack of a thick layer of buttercream on the outside of the cake (under the fondant) I split my two cakes, to make four layers of cake. then I put a thick layer of buttercream and filling or chocolate ganche on the inside of the cake. It balances it out well.
however I do live in a colder non humid climate and it may not be applicable to where you live.
keep at it, forget the failures and celebrate your successes. and take photos of your successful cakes!!
Maybe your icing was too stiff?
Nothing wrong - the fondant has to stick to the icing underneath. How else is it supposed to stay on the cake? Are you trying to peel it all off before cutting the cake, or once it's on your plate?
If before cutting, don't! Just cut it with the fondant on, and then everyone is responsible for their own piece, and they can do what they like with it.
If once it's on your plate, well it doesn't matter. people can eat it if they want, or they can eat the cake out from underneath and leave the shell of fondant behind. | <urn:uuid:0a2b7f20-b707-44d2-ac94-2790027961c6> | CC-MAIN-2016-44 | http://www.cakecentral.com/forum/t/761874/fondant-and-butter-cream | 2016-10-25T02:28:31Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-44/segments/1476988719843.44/warc/CC-MAIN-20161020183839-00479-ip-10-171-6-4.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.954816 | 448 |

October – like all the months this year – flew by. Writing this update for The Twenty Percent feels surreal but somehow, it’s that time again.
This month was fun in many ways, but I’m ending it exhausted. I’m hoping November will bring more sleep.
With only two months left of the year, there’s still so much to do. It’s looking like I’ll have a lot to write in the next two months
Here’s what I’ve been up to in the past month…
- October overview
- Work update
- Freelance update
- October’s investing and saving
- What’s coming up this month
As I’ve already alluded to, this month has been busy.
Socially, I’ve spent a lot of time with my friends and boyfriend. This isn’t always conducive to reaching your financial goals and fitness goals – but it’s part of what makes life worthwhile. I’d rather take a little bit longer to reach my goals than make so many sacrifices to get there slightly quicker.
Tomorrow is never guaranteed so you need to enjoy life while you can and spend time – and usually some money – with the people you love.
Despite these slight fitness setbacks, I still had some running successes.
I competed in three races in three months. The first was the Royal Parks Half Marathon. This was a fantastic race with great support all round the course. It was strange to be around so many people again. I also got a new PB of 1.43.00, so I was very happy!
The next two races were both cross country races. Yes, these do exist outside of school and yes, I do them voluntarily. The latter of these two was a South of England relay championships. My team came 10th, which was a big achievement considering it was the first time we’ve entered.
Apart from running, I’ve enjoyed many a lovely walk with the pup. I’m not enjoying the sheer amount of mud on the ground, however. Fitz is having far more baths now the weather is turning – I don’t think he’s very impressed.
Covid-19 booster vaccines are also underway. I’ve done another two volunteering shifts this month, both in care homes. I’ll be doing more shifts as the winter moves on. It’s incredibly rewarding work and I’m grateful to be a (small) part of the effort against the virus.
Work is still very busy – no surprises there. The news never seems to slow down.
I’m also preparing to take on a much bigger role, so have been undertaking a lot of extra work to prepare for that. This opportunity is equal parts daunting and exciting. So, I’m trying to do as much as possible in advance to put myself in the best position when I officially take on the role in a couple of weeks.
October also saw my first business trip in over 2 years. I went to Jersey and Guernsey for four action-packed days.
Here, I gave two speeches in front of over 70 people – something my anxiety would never have allowed me to do a couple of years ago. I was really proud of myself for pushing through the barriers my mind created and actually enjoyed the experience.
While I like the flexibility of working from home, I’m quickly discovering some things are much better face to face. Socialising with colleagues and contacts in person makes networking far easier and more fun!
In between all of this, I somehow managed to find time for some freelance work. The beauty of writing for a living is you can do it from anywhere. I regularly write on trains, at my boyfriend’s flat, and even in cafes or pubs.
Downtime is very important and I make sure I do switch off and relax every day. Even with this, I still find time to freelance. Being organised allows me to make use of time that would otherwise be wasted.
I’ve written 5 extra articles this month and taken on a couple of editing tasks – leading to invoices totalling £600. Now to start thinking about my self assessment tax return again…
October’s investing and saving
I stepped up my investing this month. I’ve been guilty of keeping a lot of my savings in cash because I’m hoping to buy a house relatively soon.
However, interest rates are virtually non existent and I’m unlikely to be buying a property in the next 12 months. So, I decided to take my own advice and transfer a significant proportion into a Stocks & Shares ISA instead.
Already I’m up 3.5%. Considering I put 5 figures into the ISA, that’s a large return. Of course, it could go down again this month. Overall, I know I should get better returns than keeping the money in cash.
While I’m living with my parents, I’m trying to keep my savings rate high. So far this is working well, but the desire to spend more is strong. Everyone is making up for lost time and it feels there are multiple invitations to go out every week right now.
What’s coming up this month
November is going to be a big month for me.
I’m taking on a new role at work. It’s a big promotion for me and comes with a lot more responsibility and opportunities for me to really make my mark. I’m excited about the new job title but am slightly nervous about all it entails. There’s a lot of work I’ve got to do to get up to scratch first.
For this reason, I may be a bit quieter on here for a while. I’ll try to keep the content coming as much as possible but please be kind if my posts are slightly less frequent than normal. Hopefully I’ll be back to a normal posting schedule by December!
On top of this, I’ll be launching my 2021 #FoodbankAdvent campaign in partnership with the UK Money Bloggers Community. Keep your eyes peeled for ways you can get involved – I may have a few competition prizes on offer…

Ray Williams sentenced for his part in the collapse of HIH
Reporter: Emma Alberici
EMMA ALBERICI, FINANCE EDITOR, 7.30 REPORT: He seemed quite resigned to his fate, that he was expecting to go to gaol, and you could see that on his fairly steely, kind of, presence. But I think he was, like the rest of the court, quite surprised by just how lengthy the gaol term actually was; two years and nine months at the minimum non-parole period, and four and a half years for a maximum.
KATHY BOWLEN, PRESENTER: From the outside that doesn't seem such a lengthy sentence for a $5 billion collapse?
EMMA ALBERICI: Yes, but of course the Royal Commission, and indeed today repeated in the court, Ray Williams wasn't in and of himself responsible for the collapse of the company, even though he was, of course, the chairman and the ultimate boss. The fact is that this was just a case of mismanagement, not one person did anything like, you know, sort of scarper away money or anything like that, there was no major fraud. Ray Williams, basically, was overinflating the performance of the company. Indeed in one of those years he actually wrote in the accounts that it made $92 million more than it actually did, in an effort to make the public think that the company was in a better financial state than it actually was.
KATHY BOWLEN: What impact will the sentences this week of Ray Williams and Rodney Adler have on corporate Australia?
EMMA ALBERICI: Well, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, the corporate watchdog, has actually said they're very pleased with the sentences coming one day after the other, the first gaolings of people in relation to the collapse of HIH, because they do send a message to corporate Australia that white collar crime will be prosecuted and will be chased down.
KATHY BOWLEN: Do you think that the impact of the collapse of HIH around the country had some effect on the length of the sentence?
EMMA ALBERICI: I do, and when we talk about the length of the sentence today, versus Rodney Adler, that's a 45 year old man being put away for a minimum of two and a half years, versus Ray Williams, at 68 years old, being put away for nearly three years at the minimum. He'll be spending his 70th birthday in gaol. It is a lengthy time for someone of that age, who, the Court actually said today, was unemployed and unemployable as a result of what he's done. In a sense that's a part of the punishment. In a broader sense the collapse of HIH and what we're seeing now, with nine prosecutions; three have been completed, with Rodney Adler, Ray Williams and Bill Howard, who was another executive of HIH, those three cases have now ended. There are six more in train and others that ASIC have said they will be pursuing through the DPP, so...
KATHY BOWLEN: And...
EMMA ALBERICI: ... there are more prosecutions to come.
KATHY BOWLEN: What impact did the collapse of HIH have on the insurance crisis?
EMMA ALBERICI: Well the insurance industry more generally felt the effects of this $5 billion collapse because, of course, with such a big player having gone it put pressure on the rest of the industry. We know HIH had kept their premiums artificially low, so when they left, in order for the rest of the industry to be able to survive, they needed to put their contracts up. So we saw all sorts of people affected that were in industries that had absolutely nothing to do with HIH, because of the mere fact that they tried to seek insurance and saw their premiums absolutely skyrocket.
KATHY BOWLEN: Emma Alberici, thanks for your time.
EMMA ALBERICI: Thank you. | <urn:uuid:9bfdf08c-c858-4f4a-8b1f-06a522992978> | CC-MAIN-2015-06 | http://www.abc.net.au/stateline/vic/content/2005/s1346367.htm | 2015-02-01T11:53:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-06/segments/1422122245449.81/warc/CC-MAIN-20150124175725-00227-ip-10-180-212-252.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.976509 | 850 |

Rachel Helen O'Neill
21 March 1972
|Alma mater||Dublin Institute of Technology|
|Known for||TV chef|
|Television||Rachel's Favourite Food |
Rachel's Favourite Food for Friends
Rachel's Favourite Food at Home
Rachel Allen: Bake!
My Kitchen Rules
|Spouse(s)||Isaac Allen (m. 1998)|
Career as chef and writer
Allen went to the Ballymaloe Cookery School at the age of 18. After graduating from the school she cooked at the Ballymaloe House Hotel, eventually returning first to test recipes and then to teach at the school. She worked for a while as a caterer in Vancouver before returning to teach at Ballymaloe Cookery School.
In September 2004, RTÉ broadcast Allen's first series in Ireland Rachel's Favourite Food, which has also been broadcast in Australia, Canada and Europe, and elsewhere. A book, Rachel's Favourite Food, accompanied the series, published by Gill & Macmillan. Two further TV series and books followed, Rachel's Favourite Food for Friends and Rachel's Favourite Food at Home; reruns of the latter became part of Create's television schedule in the United States starting in September 2010.
Allen has written for many Irish publications, including three years with Irish lifestyle magazine Image and a weekly column in The Sunday Tribune Magazine. She has also contributed to BBC Good Food magazine and AWT at Home magazine. Rachel’s books have sold in excess of 1 million world wide.
In 2012, she was involved in a controversy over hunting pictures of her posted on Facebook. She soon appeared as a guest on The Saturday Night Show to discuss her behaviour. Allen won the 2012 Irish Book Award for Best Non-Fiction for Easy Meals.
March 2017, Allen opened her first restaurant 'Rachel's' in Cork’s Washington Street, part of a business venture with her husband, Isaac, and publican Paul Montgomery. The restaurant closed on August 8, 2018 for an eight-week, a €1m revamp. The restaurant was reopened and its name changed to Dwyers of Cork, to reflect the heritage of the original Dwyer’s of Cork factory.
September 2019, Rachel Allen returned as a judge and co-host with chef Marco Pierre White on the popular Irish television series The Restaurant. Allen joined the series after food writer Tom Doorley left in 2017.
Rachel grew up in Foxrock, a suburb of Dublin, Ireland. Her Icelandic mother, Hallfríður Reichenfeld, was in the fashion business and had clothes shops. Her father, Brian O'Neill, had inherited the Winstanley shoe manufacturing business. Rachel and older sister, Simone attended Alexandra College in Milltown, Dublin, which she attended from age three to 17. It was a three-month course at Ballymaloe that sparked her passion for food. It was while attending Ballymaloe Cookery School and learning from Myrtle Allen, Rachel started dating Myrtle's grandson, Isaac, when they were both aged 18. They married in 1998. The wedding took place at Cloyne Cathedral. The reception was at Ballymaloe House and they honeymooned in New York.
After graduating from the school she cooked at the Ballymaloe House Hotel, eventually returning to teach at the school. It was when an RTE producer enrolled in a cookery course at the school asked Rachel if she would like to do a TV show.
In July 2012, she received an Honorary Doctorate in Science from the University of Ulster at Belfast's Waterfront Hall for her contribution to the culinary arts. Her mother-in-law, Darina Allen, received an honorary doctorate from the same university in 2003.
In February 2020 her son Joshua was imprisoned for drug offenses. He pleaded guilty to possession for sale or supply of more than €22,000 worth of cannabis at the Ballymaloe Cookery School at Shanagarry in Co Cork in September 2018. He also pleaded guilty to a charge of possession of a small amount of cocaine. He was sentenced to 15 months. In a statement Rachel Allen and her husband Isaac said they were "devastated" by the arrest of their son Joshua in relation to the drugs charges.

Banks profiting during the economy's current tough times seems unusual, but for one local bank it's actually happening.
Wednesday, Hudson City Bancorp, who runs and operates Hudson City Savings Bank, announced that their profits for the third quarter have increased 64 percent.
Hudson City Bancorp, based in Paramus, NJ, earned a record of $121.9 million this quarter, which is more than they earned last year, and also more than analysts had expected.
According to Hudson City Chief Executive, Ronald Hermance Jr., the bank has achieved it's success this quarter due to its "conservative model."
Being the humble bank on the block, Hudson City concentrates on individual mortgage applications and does not hold unrated mortgage-backed securities. Also to avoid trouble, the bank holds no stock in mortgage giants like Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae.
In a statement, Chief Executive Hermance supported the bank's conservative model, saying, "We believe we can continue to take market share and grow organically at a strong pace while not compromising asset quality." | <urn:uuid:739a490e-c655-48ba-a8a4-fc42baefb673> | CC-MAIN-2014-35 | http://www.dailypress.com/topic/wpix-despite-hard-economic-times-s-101467,0,263445.story | 2014-08-20T08:07:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-35/segments/1408500800767.23/warc/CC-MAIN-20140820021320-00117-ip-10-180-136-8.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.958771 | 220 |

I played there...it's Morgan Wrights place....Hyzer Creek...very cool course. Some steep areas..wheras you are better off wearing high ankle support when you play.
The place has a well...electricity..well you can read the description. The cabin is small but badass....very expensive marine curved glass shower in there....sweet place....he had to fight to keep the structures there...pesky building permits and crap...he didn't drwa any when he started the project...then got lucky .He fought for over a year before he found and used a clause in NY law about fishing shanties & hunting cabins. Well worth the current bid at 11000...I would expect to see it close at 6 figures...I know what he spent on clearing the land in the picture.
Hell...I even helped him work on his mower deck.
Hell if one of you guys bids onit...look for my red Champ Beast at the bottom of 12...HA!!
30 acres in Eastern New York for less than $500/acre...with or without a cool course on it?! I gotta believe that bidding will get up over $2,000-$3,000 per acre by the end of the bidding, but who knows? Already prepped my wife though for a move to rural New York with the kiddies if that bidding stays under $20,000-$25,000...lol. :-)
It's a sweet course.....he bored holes into various rock with a coring bit.......then stuck the poles into them....he used, I believe, an industrial epoxy or hydraulic water stop cement...one of those rocks sits in the middle of a small stream...hole 16, I think. Most of the time the stream is just a trickle...but occasional it's flowing.
I will watching the bidding too....Might throw a bid on it too. It will likely be into 6 figures though....but hell even at 1000 per acre it's a steal. It is located in wine and horse country.....super nice area. The property is rugged and rocky...not real easy to develop. | <urn:uuid:1ced77e2-b62a-4d88-8f26-9a3c68ca3659> | CC-MAIN-2013-48 | http://discgolfer.ning.com/forum/topics/disc-golf-course-for-sale-on?xg_source=activity | 2013-12-08T22:46:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2013-48/segments/1386163826391/warc/CC-MAIN-20131204133026-00008-ip-10-33-133-15.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.94804 | 436 |

Grief is an intense sadness stemming from a loss you have suffered. While grief is often characterized as sorrow, it can also encompass a flurry of other feelings, such as numbness, anger, guilt, despair, hostility and anxiety. The appearance and duration of grief differs greatly from one person to another, and each experience is unique. There is no single, or right, way to grieve.

Have you been sitting on the edge of your seat, waiting to hear more about the Xoom 2? No?? Well, we have some news on the subject nonetheless: the sequel to the Titanic of tablets will be called the Droid Xyboard, and apparently that image above is a leaked promo shot of the slate.
Going by this shot of the tablet’s backside, it appears to be oriented more for portrait mode (the Xoom was a landscape-first tablet). It looks to have a similar beefy build to the Xoom, with some sort of plastic surrounding what looks like an aluminum plate.
Motorola looks to be taking a cue from Samsung in releasing multiple display sizes for the upcoming device. This one will come in two variants, a smaller 8.2 incher (Droid Xyboard 8.2), and a larger 10.1 inch model (Droid Xyboard 10.1).
Rebranding the tablet from its Xoom roots is probably a wise move. The original Motorola slate was a disaster, having been rushed to launch without working LTE or an SD card slot (these were only recently activated — via a mail-in upgrade). The buggy launch of Honeycomb and minuscule selection of Android tablet apps combined with an $800 off-contract launch price to guarantee that it would get eaten alive by the iPad 2.
With that said, I’m not sure if the Droid Xyboard is a wise new direction to take. The Droid part helps, but Android devices are already marketed too much for nerds, so the Xyboard part — which sounds more like a Decepticon than an iPad rival — doesn’t exactly ring of marketing genius.
Of course with the Droid branding, that means that the tablet will be coming to Verizon. It has also been leaked (and is evident in the image above) that both models of the slate will come equipped with LTE. This time, you won’t need to mail the device six months later to get the 4G data speeds.
There is no word yet on a release date, but early 2012 sounds like a reasonable estimate for the two new Motorola tablets. | <urn:uuid:95983517-be3d-4891-a42a-4f7a51ce48a3> | CC-MAIN-2016-50 | http://www.geek.com/gadgets/leaked-xoom-2-will-be-called-the-motorola-droid-xyboard-1442651/ | 2016-12-04T22:28:32Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-50/segments/1480698541426.52/warc/CC-MAIN-20161202170901-00184-ip-10-31-129-80.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.958193 | 445 |

@CobiHam11 is good. Barring injury, which is most certainly a possibility given we are in what is now a 7-month-long April Fool’s joke that is being played on the Razorback football program, Cobi Hamilton is going to leave Fayetteville holding the most prolific reception and receiving yards season in UA history.
As has been documented in this space previously following the 2011 season, Jarius Wright held the top spots in 7 of the 9 main receiving categories: Career receptions (168) and yards (2,934), Season receptions (66), yards (1,117), and touchdown catches (12), and Single game receptions (13) and yards (281).
With his 11 catches in last week’s game versus Tulsa, Cobi passed Jarius’ season reception mark putting Hamilton at 69. Cobi now is in the UA top spot for 3 of the 9 major categories, having also passed Jarius for single game yards (303) and tying Anthony Lucas and Alton Baldwin for Single game touchdown catches (3) thanks to his monster game against Rutgers.
Cobi currently sits 40 yards shy of the top UA season yards mark, 14 receptions behind career receptions, and 338 yards behind career yards. Given that he is currently averaging 7.67 catches and almost 120 yards per game, Hamilton is on pace to surpass Jarius in all three categories.
As for SEC records, Cobi is currently on pace to end in the top 3 in season reception and receiving yards spot, as well as top 20 career receptions and top 5 career yards. He has performed in big play fashion as well, having the 3rd best yard per catch average (16.86) of the players in the top 20 career yards.
Cobi has 4 of the 14 games with 10+ receptions (all this season). He is one shy of tying Anthony Lucas and Anthony Eubanks with 5 100-yard receiving games in a season, and is third with 8 career 100-yard games, behind Lucas’ 11 and Wright and Eubanks’ nine.
Where it does get interesting, is if the Hogs could somehow pull off at least 2 wins to become bowl eligible. If that happens, Cobi would have a shot at the following:
- 100 catch season, which would make him the first player in SEC history to reach that mark
- 1,500 yard season, which would be the third in SEC history along with Josh Reed and Alshon Jeffries
- 180+ career catches, which would put him in the top 15 in SEC history
- 3,000 career yards, which would be the third in SEC history along with Terrence Edwards and Josh Reed, with a chance of posting the top mark for career receiving yards
Regardless of whether the UA becomes bowl eligible, Cobi’s season has been one of the few bright spots of the 2012 season and has placed him in rarefied air, not only at the UA, but the SEC as well.
SG +1 – Left Coast style:
- Two weeks ago against Colorado, Southern Cal WR Marqise Lee posted the 2nd best mark in NCAA history all-purpose yards with 469. Included in that was 345 receiving yards, which is good for 5th most all time in NCAA history. This marked the 4th time this year a receiver has posted a 300+ yard game (Terrence Williams BAY – 314, Cobi ARK – 303, Stedman Bailey WVU – 303). Prior to this year, there has been just fifteen 300+ yards game in FBS history.
- Oregon RB Kenyon Barner’s 321 yards rushing was impressive and is the same amount that Darren McFadden shares with Frank Mordica as top SEC single game rushing mark. However it only places Barner in the 4th spot for single best rushing game in the Pac-12. | <urn:uuid:3e1b48be-b16f-4ab7-be89-0b71107b7db9> | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | http://bloghawgs.com/2012/11/08/ | 2013-05-20T21:58:19Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2013-20/segments/1368699273641/warc/CC-MAIN-20130516101433-00031-ip-10-60-113-184.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.981497 | 800 |

I’ve received several questions about the Foreign Service application process, so for the next few posts, I’ll outline how I approached each step. Up first? The FSOT.
The first hurdle in becoming a diplomat is passing the Foreign Service Officer Test, or the FSOT. This four-part computerized test is administered at testing centers around the U.S. (and abroad) and tests the “knowledge, skills and abilities that are necessary to the work of a Foreign Service Officer.” Many will tell your that you can’t study for the FSOT because it’s too broad. Do not listen to these people. There are strategies to taking any test and below I’ve outlined the strategies I used to pass the FSOT. Woohoo! Studying! Fun!
Most importantly, know the test. How many questions are in each section? How many minutes do you get for each section? How is each section scored? Know how to play the game by their rules. And just as importantly, know thyself. Which sections do you feel comfortable with? Which sections do you most need to prepare for?
Read through the official State Department Application Process and the information they’ve posted on the FSOT, specifically the official Selection Process Information Guide, which contains an explanation of each of the sections as well as practice questions. They also have a separate practice test and a mobile app with additional questions. I suggest taking the practice test in the Information Guide before you start studying, so you know where your strengths and weaknesses are. The suggested reading list is nothing but overwhelming, so click that link with caution (I read none of these books and did just fine). Speaking of which, do not panic. There is a lot of information in the world and you will not know it all. You don’t need to. Prioritize and make a customized study guide for yourself. The test is bizarrely random, so the name of the game is simply to feel prepared.
I’ve heard several people recommend the FSOT Yahoo Group (an unofficial State Department chat group) and it’s always a good idea to reach out to your Diplomat in Residence. Furthermore, peruse the news (I recommend the BBC app’s top daily stories) and read a few Foreign Service blogs. They a great resource for study tips.
Part 1: Job Knowledge
In my opinion, this is the hardest section because the questions are so wide-ranging. In the State Department’s own words, these multiple-choice questions cover, “a broad range of topics including, but not limited to, the structure and workings of the U.S. Government, U.S. and World History, U.S. Culture, Psychology, Technology, Management Theory, Finance and Economics, and World Affairs.” And you were worried there wouldn’t be a question on price elasticity and economic demand! Phew!
My background prepared me fairly well for the Management, Finance, and Economics sections. With “fairly” being the operative word. But I hadn’t taken a history or civics class since high school, so my knowledge of history and the inner workings of the U.S. government was quite lacking. So to study, I lined up the below outline for myself:
- Watch “America, The Story of Us,” a 12-part History Channel series. This was a good way to quickly review American history and see all the major events on a single timeline.
- Take a few free online Khan Academy courses. They have a million useful topics and are very well done. I reviewed the U.S. history, World History, and U.S. Civics courses.
- Familiarize yourself with the results of a few landmark U.S. Supreme Court Cases.
- Memorize the ideals of a few major philosophers, such as Thomas Paine, John Locke, and Immanuel Kant.
- Review some key Public Relations and Economic vocabulary. What’s asymmetrical communication again?
- Know how the U.S. government works. This is an important one. Know how bills become laws and the difference between the House of Representatives and the Senate. Know the chain of command of the government. Know what all the U.S. Federal agencies do and about when they were founded.
- Master the Sporcle global geography quiz. Know your countries. Also a useful skill on Flag Day.
Part 2: English Expression
This multiple-choice section simply tests your English grammar. In my opinion, it is very similar to the English Grammar section on the SATs and APs. If this is a tricky section for you, get yourself an SAT prep book and review the Grammar section.
Part 3: Biographic Questionnaire
For this section, know thyself and self-compliment effusively. The questions begin as multiple-choice. For example: How many times in the past year have you organized an event? Never? 1-2? 3-4? More than 4 times? Then the kicker: List these events in the box below, but surprise, a tiny character count! In my opinion, the hardest part about this section is the timing. There are a lot of questions and it flies by as you’re trying to condense all your accomplishments into a tiny text box. Finish the multiple-choice half of all of these questions, even if you don’t have a chance to fill in all the text boxes. For the text boxes, forget complete sentences and obscure event titles and try to give descriptions if you can fit them. So not: “Organized Paris Peace Treaties,” but “Negotiated end of WWII between nine warring superpowers.” And you know what else counts? Those weekly meetings you set up at work. And that study group you organized for your French class. And that charity run you volunteered at. So yes, you organized events like this more than four times in the past year. Self-complimenting. It’s an art.
Part 4: Written Essay
They’ve changed this section since I took the test. Currently, you get to choose one of three essay topics and have 25 minutes to write an eloquent and thought-provoking essay supporting your thoughts on the matter. The topics themselves aren’t overly difficult, but 25 minutes goes fast. So practice writing a few timed essays before you get to the test (especially if you haven’t written a proper essay since college). SAT essay prompts would be good practice here. Know what 25 minutes feels like and have a basic essay structure prepared that you can drop any topic into. Lastly, leave yourself time to re-read your paper. The computer will not have spell-check and typos will count against you.

“I decided to take this class out of curiosity and continued with the class because of the nice way I felt after doing the exercises. Movement in my left arm had been good but somewhat limited as result of shoulder injuries from an accident about thirty years ago. In fact, I was quite happy to be able to move the arm at all, after the doctor’s sad flawed prognosis. Then suddenly one day, during an exercise in class, there was my left arm – amazingly raised equally high and perfectly parallel to the right!“
