IHT Wealth Management and US Wealth Management Announce Partnership and Strategic Transition Plan to Combine Firms
Phased Process to Position Combined Firm for Continued Growth through Enhanced Scale, Resources and Expertise
CHICAGO and BRAINTREE, Mass., Dec. 21, 2016 — IHT Wealth Management (or “IHT”), the Chicago-based super-OSJ focused on developing goals-based financial strategies for clients, and US Wealth Management, a network of experienced wealth managers providing holistic financial advice and wealth planning strategies, today announced that they have entered into a partnership and phased strategic plan to combine the two firms. The plan is expected to position the combined entity for continued growth and success by enabling it to offer advisors and their clients expanded resources, broader scale and an enhanced range of holistic financial planning capabilities, while providing a seamless succession roadmap for US Wealth Management Chairman and Chief Executive Officer John Napolitano. The two firms currently manage approximately $2 billion in combined brokerage and advisory assets.
As the initial step in the transitional plan, the partnership between the two firms will enable them to benefit right away from the respective strengths and insights that each brings to the table. Effective immediately, IHT Founder and President Steven Dudash has joined the US Wealth Management leadership team as Executive Vice President, Recruiting and Strategic Development. In this role, Mr. Dudash will share best practices on advisor recruiting and practice acquisitions, and will focus on solutions tailored to help advisory firms build strong succession strategies. IHT expects to benefit from access to US Wealth Management’s extensive business development and practice management platform, along with subject matter expertise in financial planning, estate planning and tax matters, among other areas.
Over the course of the process, IHT Wealth Management will purchase the equity of US Wealth Management in stages, allowing both firms’ advisors and their clients to smoothly and seamlessly transition to the combined company structure. IHT currently has 28 advisors in its network, while the US Wealth Management network consists of 30 advisors. No other changes were announced regarding the management teams of the respective firms, their headquarters locations or other operational issues.
IHT Wealth Management Founder and President Steven Dudash said, “The next several years will be a time of profound change for independent financial advisors. Evolving client expectations, industry consolidation and regulatory shifts such as the Department of Labor’s new fiduciary rule – among other factors – are expected to converge to create a difficult environment for firms that lack a critical mass of resources or the broad capabilities to serve the full range of clients’ needs. By combining our scale and expertise in helping advisors achieve their business and succession goals, our combined firm will offer the resources, flexibility and management insight to meet the challenges that lie ahead for independent advisors and their clients.”
US Wealth Management Chairman and CEO John Napolitano said, “While our firms currently manage over $2 billion in client assets, we are very much aware that the key factor that will differentiate firms in the years ahead will not be assets, but the ability to provide customized, thoughtful and comprehensive advice to meet the full spectrum of clients’ needs. The partnership and transitional plan we have announced today is evidence that we practice what we preach. This combination puts a stake in the ground stating that the USWM / IHT partnership is poised to help advisors elevate the service they provide to clients, and to offer business development and succession strategies that work.”
Mr. Napolitano continued, “Looking further down the road, I could not have found a better successor to take the reins at US Wealth Management when the time comes than Steven Dudash. Steve is 20 years younger than I am, and has built a team that demonstrates a unique gift for understanding the specific needs of each advisor and developing solutions to help them thrive. The IHT W-2 model – sometimes referred to as a ‘wirehouse lite’ model – is very appealing to advisors looking for more of an employment situation with benefits, and who don’t want the aggravation of opening their own office in order to be completely independent. We intend to implement that model immediately in selected US Wealth Management locations. I am very excited for the future of our two combined firms.”
Mr. Dudash concluded, “I am honored to have entered into this partnership with US Wealth Management, and to be entrusted with a key role in the future of both of these exceptional firms. We are confident that the decades of management experience that John’s team brings, in addition to USWM’s robust resources, will enable us to offer the scale and broad combined capabilities that any firm needs to grow and prosper in this new age of wealth management.”
Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

st: Saving data in compressed format? - wishlist...
As you might have noticed, "zipping" a .dta file often results in
compressed files that are less than one tenth of the original file size.
I couldn't find any documentation on a compressed stata file format - if
there is, please let me know and ignore the rest of this message. I
solve the problem of large files (in Windows) by compressing the folder,
so it uses less disk space, but it is still a problem when you want to
transfer or transport files.
I don't really know what it would take, but my guess is that it wouldn't
be too hard to store the files in some sort of compressed format, and
having Stata decompressing them on the fly when opening. I could even
think of having very large datasets (larger than physical memory)
compressed in memory... but that would probably slow things too much.
Since I don't think this will be implemented soon, could someone share
experiences on invoking Windows apps from within stata? I'm thinking
about doing some sort of "usezip" program that would open .zip files...
All the best,

Much coverage has been given to the digitization of business -- and the lack thereof in insurance -- both within National Underwriter Life & Health and on this website. We are touching on the topic again in our August issue with the feature, “One-click life insurance?
” which offers three hypothetical situations for the future of the industry. But are they really so hypothetical, or are they modern predictions?
When the feature ran online it understandably created a bit of buzz among our readers. If these predictions hold true, agents and brokers everywhere would be out of a job and – most likely – so would I. That’s a scary thought indeed.
But the purpose of such writings is not to invoke fear and anger, the purpose is to begin a discussion amongst insurance professionals around the “what if” scenarios – it’s risk management 101. We must begin to take notice. We must prepare. We must adapt.
– everything from smartphones to Big Data to cloud computing – is making it easier for everybody to do everything. Most significant to us, it’s making it easier for entities unburdened by legacy operating systems and solely brick-and-mortar networks, to enter fields in which they may not have experience with or vast knowledge of. And, as a recent Harvard Business Review article on the topic stated, “The industries most susceptible to disruption are those selling information-based services that can be delivered digitally – and a perfect example is the insurance industry.”
Further, EY, in their 2013 “Insurance in a digital world” report, states that insurers view digital as a key priority but are lagging far behind in implementing the necessary changes. In fact, 79 percent say they are not setting the baseline for digital or are still learning. With that knowledge, maybe it’s not so shocking that almost 80 percent of respondents do not see themselves as digital leaders.
But digital leaders we must become. And NUL is here to help all of our readers become leaders in the digital world by offering success stories of those agents or companies who have done just that, along with tips and advice on how to adapt successfully.
As for all insurance sales being done solely online, I don’t buy it. Yes, Amazon and Google could potentially – and perhaps successfully – sell insurance, but nothing can replace the knowledge, experience and face time a real life advisor offers a client. Nothing.
Plus, buying insurance online
is not for everyone. Consider the affluent market, the majority of which would opt for a trusted financial advisor to handle their complex estate and financial planning needs, rather than a “one-click” life insurance policy or IRA option bought through an online retailer.
The middle market, on the other hand, illustrates an enormous opportunity for agents and brokers when it comes to online sales. Middle income clients, especially those within the Generation X or Y contingent, would wholeheartedly embrace the thought of purchasing life insurance, health insurance, financial planning advice, etc. through their computer. They already buy furniture, cars, clothes and groceries that way. So why not insurance?
Just as Darwin found that the survival of the fittest was not necessarily a function of the strength or intelligence of species but rather their adaptability, so too with successful businesses. Senior insurance executives will need to figure out how to adapt, or risk having their businesses left behind as the industry evolves.
The digitization of insurance is not an “if” question but a “when” question. And we’re here to help.

The September 2012 Newsletter is now available for download here. This month’s highlight is on the Philmont trek, with photos included.
There will be a parents meeting tonight.
This is it! Troop 26 leaves for Philmont tomorrow. We are meeting at the Santa Barbara Train station @ 12 noon on Saturday, July 28th. Months and months of preparation (not to mention loads and loads of money- in unrelated news, REI is doing very well…) and planning are coming to fruition. However, as you finally get away from your parents for the next two weeks, we ask one final thing…
When your parents drop you off at the train tomorrow, please have them park and come check in with either Mr. Shaw and/or Mr. Stewart. There is one final Philmont form that must be signed by a “responsible” adult. Not that you were necessarily planning on a long, tear-filled goodbye, but I know the temptation to just have your parents slow down a bit, open a door and “Tuck and roll” your way to freedom.

…”Eagle Scouts are a different breed.”
And now science has finally proved this as fact.
At last, the results are in from the 2010 Baylor University study, Eagle Scouts: Merit Beyond the Badge, conducted by the university’s Program for Pro-Social Behavior under a grant from the John Templeton Foundation.
The researchers found statistically significant differences between Eagle Scouts, former Scouts who didn’t make Eagle, and men who were never in Scouting. The differences were grouped into seven areas: Health and Recreation, Connection, Service and Leadership, Environmental Stewardship, Goal Orientation, Planning and Preparedness, and Character.
The timing’s perfect with the 100th anniversary of the Eagle Scout Award this year. But what were the findings? How did Eagle Scouts rate? Read on for my complete analysis.
Find the article here, and get motivated (to be different….)!
Hi all! Our troop historian will submit to me his trip logs so we can publish them to the world.

Let’s face it, the quest to keep your home dust free is never ending.
More and more we’re hearing of the negative impact of dust and allergens in our homes, and I am one who is suffers from environmental allergies.
Featured image: Dust mite.
What turns out to be the x-factor amongst those trying to keep their homes clean is the ‘know-how’ about the best methods to keep dust under control.
Some of these techniques may be unfamiliar to you, yet, scores of people have already benefited from them. So, it’s time that you too equipped yourself with the knowledge to tackle dust and protect the inhabitants of your home 24 x 7.
How to keep your home dust free?
Keep your bed clean.
Make it a top priority to clean your bedding at least once in a week.
Though invisible to the naked eye, your bed is your home’s top dust accumulator as it is exposed to all kinds of microscopic dust particles such as dead skin cells, dust mites, dandruff and cloth fibers which have been separated from your bed sheets.
Change the sheets of your bed and wash them thoroughly. Also, dust your pillows.
The best way to remove dust from bed linen and your bed is to vacuum them.
Weather-proof your home.
At times, the weatherproofing of your home can also be a major contributor to the amount of dust that you have to deal with.
For example, if the seals covering your windows and doors are damaged and have holes in them, dust can enter your home quite easily. Check the window and door seals from time to time and replace them if you find that they have suffered any damage.
Avoid huge carpets or rugs.
Avoid using large carpets and rugs in your home.
Not only are they extremely difficult to clean and maintain, they also accumulate tons of dust in a very short span of time.
If using a carpet is an absolute necessity for you, then opt for those which have a smaller surface area so that cleaning it does not become a dreaded task for you.
Keep your home uncluttered.
The amount of dust that gets accumulated in your home is directly proportional to the quantity of ‘things’ that you have in your house.
A house which is cluttered and filled with a lot of furniture, electronic gadgets and other fancy stuff will obviously be a dust magnet. Cleaning such a house can be an absolute nightmare.
Keeping your home uncluttered and using only the furniture and things which are necessary will help make life a lot easier for you in terms of getting rid of dust.
Use a micro-fiber cloth for cleaning.
When cleaning dust, your intention should be to clean it completely without leaving any residue. Otherwise, you are wasting your precious time and effort.
Cleaning experts recommend the use of damp rags or microfiber cloth which is capable of attracting the dust particles and not allowing them to spread about. This will ensure that the surface you clean is completely void of any dust.
Regulars checks of home filtration systems.
If you have installed a heating and cooling system in your home, pay attention to the efficiency of its air filtration system.
If the efficiency of the filtration system is not up to standards, dust particles can effortlessly pass through the filters and ruin the cleanliness of your home.
Run regular checks on the filtration system in order to keep them functioning at least around 60%-70% efficiency. This can greatly cut down on the volume of dust entering your home. | <urn:uuid:1bb35ce0-8b5e-4f6b-ace4-c5ea66f50022> | CC-MAIN-2017-09 | http://www.featheringtheemptynest.com/lesser-known-tips-which-can-help-keep-your-home-dust-free/ | 2017-02-24T12:50:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-09/segments/1487501171608.86/warc/CC-MAIN-20170219104611-00330-ip-10-171-10-108.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.946882 | 752 |
I struggle with calling myself a “single mom” because that brings to mind a woman who is doing it completely on her own, with no help. I share custody of my amazing son, Smiley, so I only have him part time, and I have found a soul mate (the Writer) who I intend to be with for the rest of my life, but he travels a lot and cannot be with us as much as we’d like.
So…I’m a “singleish” mom.
I’m always a mom and I’m always a partner, I just don’t always have Smiley or the Writer with me.

U.S. Market Recovery Monitor - 24 April 2021
Hotel performance growth appears to be on hold when compared with the solid gains seen during the spring break period. In a week-over-week comparison, U.S. hotel occupancy was flat during 18-24 April at 57.3%. On a total-room-inventory (TRI) basis, which includes temporarily closed hotels, occupancy was 54.4%. Weekly room demand increased slightly and remained above 21 million for a sixth consecutive week.
Like in the previous week, weekend occupancy was above 70% (67% TRI). The emerging story is the gain in weekday occupancy, which has been growing steadily over the last month. In reviewing the room demand growth in the past four weeks versus the previous four weeks, weekday demand increased an average of 16% over the period versus a 10% increase on weekends.
The percentage of hotels with weekly occupancy above 60% went unchanged and remained above 52%. Large hotels, those with 300+ rooms, had the largest weekly occupancy gain week on week (+0.4pts) but occupancy stayed low on an absolute basis. When indexed to the comparable week in 2019, room demand for large hotels was less than half. Room demand for small (under 75 rooms) and medium (75-299 rooms) hotels continued to be strong as these types of hotels have regained 90%+ of the demand they had in 2019 during the past six weeks. Occupancy for small to medium hotels was 60% in the fortnight.
Room demand fell across the big three states (Texas, Florida & California), where weekly room demand has been above two million for the past six weeks. Florida had the largest room demand decrease, but weekly occupancy remained solid at 65% (TRI) and among the highest in the country. Occupancy in Texas, where demand fell the least of the three, was 62% (TRI) and flat from the previous week. Demand in both Texas and Florida was close to the level seen in the comparable week of 2019. Twenty-two states captured more than 90% of their 2019 room demand this past week with several surpassing the 2019 level.
Revenue per available room (RevPAR) rose 1% week on week (0.7% TRI) and indexed at 70 (67 TRI) when compared with 2019, meaning that RevPAR was 70% of what it was in the corresponding week of 2019. Thus, the industry is still in the “Recession” stage, as defined by STR. RevPAR indexed to 2019 has been at or above 70 for the past four weeks.
More markets were in the “Recovery” or “Peak” categories since the start of the pandemic. This week, 51% of the 166 markets were in one of those two categories on a TRI basis. Seventeen markets, down from 18 in the past two weeks, remained in the “Depression” category. San Francisco and New York were at the bottom with an index under 22. Outside the U.S., the percentage of markets in “Depression” remained unchanged from the previous week at 71%.
Looking at the U.S. chain scale demand relative to 2019, Economy had the highest weekly index (99) as it has for most of the year, whereas Upper Upscale had the lowest (44). Taking a closer look, 54% of reporting hotels in the Economy chain scale were in the “Peak” category with a weekly RevPAR higher than corresponding weeks in 2019. In comparison, only 8% of Upper Upscale hotels were at peak RevPAR with 53% in the “Depression” category. Upper Midscale, the largest branded chain scale, had 28% of its hotels in the “Peak” category this week. At the beginning of the year, 19% of Upper Midscale hotels were at “Peak” and a third were in “Depression.”
Overall U.S. ADR increased by a little less than 1% week on week with the Top 25 markets having slightly better gains than elsewhere. Overall, ADR was at 84% of the level achieved during the comparable week in 2019 and has been trending upward since early March.
As seen over the past two weeks, hotel performance will continue to meander until the start of the summer travel season. As a result, expect most metrics to remain flattish with only slight upward movement. However, recent trends in weekday demand are encouraging and could be a signal of returning business demand. Only time will tell if this is so.

One of the best things Ubisoft has done in recent years (besides giving birth to Assassin’s Creed) was to reboot the Rayman series. The developers must have realised that Rayman’s true strength had always been the excellent platforming action. And so they released a graphically super impressive 2D platforming game with great controls, great gameplay and a very unique soundtrack called Rayman Origins.
Luckily, Rayman Jungle Run for iPhone and iPad has a lot in common with its bigger console brother. It looks just as beautiful and is a very polished, very fun game. The biggest difference is the gameplay; while you have full directional control in Rayman Origins, Rayman Jungle Run is an on-rail game where you only need to help Rayman avoid various obstacles. You’ll be doing this by simply tapping the left side of the screen to jump and fly, and the right side of the screen to punch.
In the first few levels, all you need to do and worry about is jumping. The game will then introduce you to the concept of floating and finally into punching stuff. This is done very intuitively and creates a very nice learning curve. At first I was a bit worried that Rayman Jungle Run might be too easy because the first few levels were no real challenge at all. I was proven wrong pretty soon when I tried to complete one of the challenge levels that you first need to unlock before you can play them. I probably tried that level about 50 times and have yet to complete it.
The game is split into four chapters with ten levels each. The levels are full of coins that, if you wish to collect all 100 per level, you often have to find secret passages for. Collecting all 100 coins in a level will gain you a special zombie tooth. In each of the four chapters there is one special challenge level that can be unlocked by collecting five of those teeth. All of the levels have a very distinctive art style and look and feel very different. But while they all look different, they also all look equally gorgeous! Rayman Jungle Run really is a beautiful game!
So it looks as good as Rayman Origins, but unfortunately it doesn’t sound quite as good. The music in Rayman Jungle Run is very similar, but it does sound very repetitive and might get on your nerves pretty quickly. It doesn’t help that there isn’t a huge variety of songs either. But compared to how much fun I had with this game overall, I can forgive the weakness in the music department.
So my verdict is quite clear: If you like beautiful and challenging platforming games on your iPhone and iPad, there’s really no way around buying Rayman Jungle Run. For what it offers I also consider it a steal! | <urn:uuid:54ac9c4d-37ff-498b-9e5f-e231aa8c9b55> | CC-MAIN-2023-06 | http://taparena.com/2012/10/13/rayman-jungle-run-review-for-iphone-yep-its-awesome/ | 2023-02-01T18:34:31Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-06/segments/1674764499949.24/warc/CC-MAIN-20230201180036-20230201210036-00036.warc.gz | en | 0.972328 | 570 |
This was a sock pattern that I just had to make up - and when I had these leftovers available it seemed the perfect time had come. I really enjoyed knitting these up even if the yarn presented some issues as it likes to stick to itself which slows things down when trying to use 2 colours.
You'll recognise the dark one from the Father's socks I completed last month, the fog colour was a friends leftovers.

A pretty pair of anklets with a lace fold down cuff. I made these in size small so they knit up very quickly compared with the usual large size I make. There will be a bigger pair soon.

Getting ready for some summer fun - I hooked up a couple of pairs of the barefoot sandals in cotton with my 1.5 mm hook.
These are perfect for dressing up feet without wearing shoes.
No purpose other than fun.

Planning by Stealth
from newspaper reports over the country during the General Election campaign, a reader gained the very distinct impression that London and the Midlands were islands of prosperity in a sea of underdeveloped areas. Lancashire was depressed about cotton. Gloucestershire was dubious about aircraft. Tyneside, South Wales and Scotland were made to sound like Calabria. Most of our basic industries seemed either to be in a bad way, or if they were undeniably prosperous, They Were in the Wrong Area.

TIM first quantum computing for mobile optimisation
February 25, 2020
TIM claims it is the first mobile operator in Europe to implement quantum computing algorithms planning next generation mobile networks.
The computational potential of quantum computers means they can perform at around ten times the speed of established optimisation methods. TIM has optimised planning of radio cells, framing the problem within a QUBO (quadratic unconstrained binary optimisation) algorithmic model, carried out on D-Wave’s 2000Q quantum computer.
Quantum computers are based on qubits, basic units of information similar to ordinary bits, which exploit the principles of quantum mechanics to process complex problems and large calculations in extremely short times.
This has also made it possible to develop radio cell planning that ensures reliable mobile services with high performance, according to TIM. | <urn:uuid:2e0b5e88-b7c7-4ab7-86b4-118dda6a83e8> | CC-MAIN-2023-50 | https://advanced-television.com/2020/02/25/tim-first-quantum-computing-for-mobile-optimisation/ | 2023-12-07T07:24:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-50/segments/1700679100650.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20231207054219-20231207084219-00612.warc.gz | en | 0.907167 | 168 |

Linen in Midnight Blue, darkest inky blue. Gorgeous!
A linen with great tactile qualities and a few slubs in the weave which deliver fab texture. This is a great favourite of mine, as this linen is a good weight for dresses, trousers or jackets. It has wonderful feel when wearing and looks amazing, with a lovely jiggle to the fabric. It drapes well, with some body, so that it won’t be too light and flyaway while you are wearing it. If you would like a lighter weight for tops, shirts and so on, or a smoother and flatter weave, then some of the other Linens from outside the Rebecca range might be what you are after. | <urn:uuid:c9ee954c-e5f0-487c-bb1f-f4c0190fcea0> | CC-MAIN-2020-05 | https://www.bloomsburysquarefabrics.com/product/rebecca-linen-dark-blue/ | 2020-01-19T15:23:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-05/segments/1579250594662.6/warc/CC-MAIN-20200119151736-20200119175736-00511.warc.gz | en | 0.950203 | 146 |
SOCHI, Russia — If 1980 was the “Miracle on Ice,” this was the “Debacle on Ice.” If 1980 was about American kids winning with guts against overwhelming odds, this was about American pros wilting when the going got tough. Some 34th anniversary this was. This was the opposite of the Olympic ideal.
“Disappointing,” said captain Zach Parise. “A little embarrassing.”
Not a little. A lot.
There was no shame in losing to Canada in the semifinals Friday night, 1-0. Canada was the better team. There could have been no shame in losing to Finland in the bronze medal game Saturday night. A letdown could have been understandable.
But there was shame in this 5-0 loss because it wasn’t just a letdown. It was a meltdown. The Americans didn’t show the character that is supposed to define USA Hockey. They unraveled after things didn't go their way, freelancing, turning over pucks, taking penalties, letting the Finns pour it on.
They came for gold. They left as goats.
“It feels like you played this tournament for nothing,” said center Paul Stastny. “You win that quarterfinal game. You get excited because you know you’re going to play for a medal, and you come away with nothing. Not much to say. Just disappointing. Sour, I guess. A medal’s a medal, and it’s going to be with you forever, and we couldn’t come up with one.”
“Obviously,” said center Ryan Kesler, “that’s going to leave a hole in your gut for a while.”
[Related: Humiliating loss, jarring exit for Team USA]
The Americans are tired of hearing about 1980. That was long ago. Those were amateurs against the Soviet stars. These are pros against pros, and the United States has won silver twice in the NHL-at-the-Olympics era – in 2002 and 2010, losing to Canada both times. A gold medal would not have been a miracle here.
This team wanted to start a new conversation and beat Canada along the way. The Americans raised hopes by winning their first four games, scoring 20 goals, more than any other team in the tournament. They drew the Canadians in the semis and couldn’t wait to play them, and they got shut out. It hurt. “It was the game I think we wanted and got in this tournament, got it in the semifinal, and losing that game, it took a lot out of us,” said coach Dan Bylsma.
That meant trouble. While the Finns played their semifinal at 4 p.m. Sochi time on Friday, the Americans played theirs at 9 p.m., giving them less time to recover for the 7 p.m. faceoff on Saturday. The Finns also have won more men’s hockey medals than any other country in the NHL era – bronze in 1998, silver in 2006 and bronze in 2010. They wanted this more.
Don’t make excuses for the Americans. Don’t spin this into a positive – that they have high standards, that only gold matters. Don’t compare this to what happened in 1998 at Nagano, when the Canadians lost in a shootout to the Czech Republic and then lost the bronze to Finland. At least that game was 3-2.
[Photo gallery: Finland blanks U.S. to claim bronze medal]
The Americans did come out hard Saturday night. They did show some heart. With goaltender Jonathan Quick down and out, Kesler leapt in front of the gaping net like a Secret Service agent protecting the president. He took the puck in the chest as if it were a bullet.
But then Patrick Kane failed to score on a penalty shot, and Max Pacioretty failed to score on a breakaway, and they gave up two goals in 11 seconds early in the second period. Bylsma called a timeout and tried to wake up the players. Dustin Brown made mistakes on both goals, and Bylsma benched him, even though he is an alternate captain. “I’m not happy about it,” Brown said. “It’s the coach’s job to figure out the best chance to win, if that’s what he thinks, I’m a player. He’s the coach. That’s how it works.”
And then Kane failed to score on another penalty shot later in the second. Kane hit the right post, and the puck ricocheted into the air. He caught the puck in his glove and tossed it to the side like garbage. “No excuses,” said Kane, who didn’t score in the tournament. “I wasn’t good enough to help the team win a medal.”
And then it got worse. They let it get to them, and they came unglued.
“Once they got those two goals, a lot of frustration set in on our part, whether it was some feelings from last night, disappointment of being where we were,” Parise said. “We started trying to beat guys 1-on-1. We turned the puck over all the time. We got penalties. We just kind of stopped playing that team game that got us to where we are.”
Kane slashed his stick at the feet of a Finn and took a poor tripping penalty; the Finns scored just as the penalty expired. T.J. Oshie went off for interference; the Finns scored on the power play. Ryan Suter hit an opponent and went off for high-sticking; the Finns scored on the power play again. Kane added a late slashing call; somehow the Finns didn’t make it 6-0.
[Also: Teemu Selanne caps Olympic career with one more medal]
“It’s all disappointing, but it’s very disappointing the way the game shook out,” Parise said. “With a medal on the line, you get blown out, 5-0. That’s unacceptable at this point, at this stage of the tournament.”
The coaches sat side by side in the post-game press conference, as the coaches do after every game at the Olympics. After Bylsma answered a question about effort, Finnish coach Erkka Westerlund interjected.
“I have to say USA has maybe the best team in this tournament,” Westerlund said. “They play very well together.”
Westerlund was trying to help, but he only made it worse, highlighting the failure. Best team in the tournament? The Americans had lots of potential and high expectations, but what do they have to show for it?
Wins over Slovakia, Russia, Slovenia and the Czech Republic? As thrilling as the Russia game was, the Americans needed an eight-round shootout to win, and how good were the Russians, really? The Americans couldn’t match the Canadians. They not only lost bronze to the Finns, they lost it.
[More: Team USA's bronze medal bust: 'They look like the Russians']
“There was absolutely no part of anyone, I believe, that didn’t want to go into this game and win a bronze medal – absolutely none,” Bylsma said. “Everybody to a man today talked about the importance of this game and going into this game to win a bronze medal. But I do know the emotional toll and the disappointment of coming to this tournament, and wanting the showdown with the Canadians in that game, there was disappointment in losing, and that’s not going to go away.”
Neither will this.
“I think if we’re honest about this, these last two games, we had better performances in the tank and they didn’t come to the forefront,” said center David Backes. “That’s, I think, the disappointing thing.
“If we played our butts off and were ousted or had better teams against us, I think you can live with that. But when it’s less-than-stellar performances, especially in a tournament like this where it’s one and done, when you’re playing for your country, there really should be nothing held back. It’s going to be a sour, sour feeling for a while.”

Peppa Hide and Seek £14.99 @ Argos
This Peppa Hide and Seek sounds like a bit of a lark!
I loved playing hide and seek as a kid, in fact...I still do, truth be told.
There's just something about the anticipation of it all; it matters not if you are the hider or the seeker, will you find everyone? Or will you be found?! OH I LOVE IT!
If this works the way it's supposed to (and we've come across similar things that erm, how can we put this nicely...? Similar things that didn't quite do what they said they would!) then Peppa Hide and Seek is going to provide lots of fun in your household on Christmas Day, and Boxing Day, and lots of days after that!
The reviews I've read are pretty good actually, so it looks like you'll be safe to go ahead and get Peppa Hide and Seek for your little Peppa fan.
"I got this for my grand daughter and she loves it, she's only three but loves Peppa Pig. It was well worth the money, she carrys it everywhere; I would say to anybody thinking of buying this to go ahead and get it"
The concept is simple; someone hides Peppa, then with the help of the electonic teddy you find her as he tells you when you're getting hot or cold.
Nice and simple and a rather fabo price too; shame the seven AAA batterires aren't included with Peppa Hide and Seek, then it would be even better!

You can build a simple gantry crane that is portable. Small gantry cranes can be used on building sites to lift bags of concrete, pallets of lumber or any miscellaneous parts that are too big to lift by hand. Gantry cranes can also be used to lift engines, transmissions or other heavy parts used by mechanics. The beauty of the smaller gantry crane is that you can assemble it over the object, lift it and when you're done, disassemble the crane and put it away for future use.
Things You'll Need
- 5 wooden beams, 4-by-4-by-48 inches
- Hand saw
- Hand clamp
- Cordless drill
- Drill bit, 1/2-inch diameter, 8-inches long
- 8 bolts, 1/2-by-10 inches
- 8, 1/2-inch washers
- 8, 1/2-inch nuts
- 1/2-inch socket
- 4 chain and pulley systems
Video of the Day
Place one 4-by-4 post flat on the ground. Make a mark on the post 6 inches down from one corner. Place a straightedge from the opposite corner on the same end and draw a line down to the mark. This should be an approximately 60-degree angle.
Cut down the line with a handsaw to form a spear-like point on the post. Draw and cut the other three posts exactly the same.
Lay two of the posts out flat in the shape of an A; the angles should be facing each other. Stand the remaining post up vertically between the angles. The angles should fit flat against the sides of the post. Place a hand clamp over the end of the A-shape and tighten just enough to hold the vertical post up.
Drill four holes through the top of the A-shape with a cordless drill and half-inch drill bit. Space them evenly so that they penetrate completely through the legs and the vertical post.
Lay the other two legs out the same way. Release the clamp on the vertical post. Flip it over and place it between the other two legs. Drill through the top of the A-shape again just as you did on the other set of legs.
Insert 10-inch bolts through each hole going all the way through both legs and the vertical post. Place half-inch washers and nuts on the other end of the bolts. Tighten them securely with a socket and ratchet.
Grab the vertical post with both hands. Tip if forward until it's horizontal. Stand one of the other legs up in place on the end. Insert one of the bolts through the matching holes. Stand the other leg up and slide it onto the end of the bolt. Insert the remaining three bolts through the holes. Put on the washers and nuts and tighten securely to secure the legs on the gantry crane.
Loop four chain and pulley systems evenly spaced along the top of the beam. Lift a load on a single chain and transfer the load to the next chain to move the load from side to side. Or you can use a single pulley system and slide the load. | <urn:uuid:03112f0a-994a-49aa-baad-7d031c4a87bf> | CC-MAIN-2019-35 | https://www.ehow.com/how_12160263_build-aframe-wooden-gantry-crane.html | 2019-08-21T22:59:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-35/segments/1566027316549.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20190821220456-20190822002456-00480.warc.gz | en | 0.919003 | 649 |
If you love overnight oatmeal, this peanut butter version is delicious with none of the guilt! Have this healthy overnight oats recipe for breakfast, or as a protein filled snack/dessert.
These are easy and quick – prep time is about five minutes. Don’t forget to scroll to the bottom of the post for a video showing you how it’s all done!
I didn’t try overnight oatmeal until recently. Let’s be honest – I was dumb. I thought overnight oats might be soggy and that it just wouldn’t appeal. BOY was I wrong!
Overnight oatmeal is one of my new favorite breakfasts, and honestly, one of my new favorite healthy desserts. There are all sorts of overnight oats recipes out there, and this peanut butter version is one can be made a bit more healthy – or as guilty as you like.
Before I dive into the oats recipe, I want to address a few questions I’ve gotten related to this healthy oats recipe. Apparently quite a few people are new to overnight oatmeal as I was!
Do you eat this overnight oats recipe hot or cold?
You can eat them either way! What I’ve noticed is that overnight oatmeal is typically made hot for breakfast and cold for dessert. People also make them hot in winter, cold in summer. The choice is really up to you. I like them both ways.
What type of oats should I use?
You will want to use old-fashioned rolled oats for this overnight oatmeal recipe. Instant oatmeal gets too soggy, and steel-cut oats tend to remain a lot more chewy unless they soak for quite a long time.
If you like chewy, then you might want to go for the steel-cut oats. But for me, old-fashioned rolled oats are perfect and have the best consistency, hot or cold!
Is overnight oatmeal good for you?
It depends on the ingredients you add, but it is a very filling breakfast, snack, or dessert. They have a good amount of protein and fiber (as well as some other good stuff) so for me, I would consider these to be healthy overnight oats.
These overnight oats do have carbs and sugar, and most recipes will. So it really depends what you consider to be “good for you.”
I will say that to make this recipe healthier, you can remove the chocolate chips. I’ve provided the nutrition information for that scenario in the recipe card below.
One thing this overnight oats recipe has over similar peanut butter recipes is a lower calorie and fat count. The secret is PB2! Have you heard of this magical peanut butter powder?
I order it by the (big) jar and use in to replace regular peanut butter. It has 85% less fat calories than traditional peanut butter, is all natural, and has no additives.
I know I sound like an advertisement but it’s THAT good . . . and when you’re watching your calories, it’s perfect for that peanut butter-y taste.
How long can you keep overnight oats in the fridge?
Good news – you can keep them in the fridge for up to five days. So Sunday night you can make breakfast for the entire week, with one snack or dessert. Or maybe you love a friend or neighbor enough to surprise them!
Can you make overnight oats without milk?
Absolutely! You can make this overnight oats recipe with water, almond milk (like I did), soy milk, coconut milk . . . some people even make oats with juice!
I’m not sure about that, but to each his or her own. I’m partial to almond milk because I like the nutrients, the no-dairy, and the texture that the oatmeal provides.
Are you ready for the recipe? This overnight oats recipe is EASY and makes quite a bit in a short time frame. It took me about five minutes to put everything together and get it all into individual jars. You’re not going to regret trying this – I promise. Get the awesome overnight oats recipe below!
Peanut Butter Overnight Oatmeal
- 3 cups oats
- 3 cups unsweetened vanilla almond milk (or regular milk)
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- 1 cup PB2
- ¼ c honey (or maple syrup)
- 1/2 c mini chocolate chips
- Stir all ingredients (except chocolate chips) in a bowl. Divide between 6 containers or jars.
- Cover and refrigerate overnight. The oatmeal will thicken as the oats absorb all of the liquid.
- In the morning, heat up to desired temperature (or eat cold) and sprinkle with chocolate chips.
Doesn’t this peanut butter overnight oats recipe look delightful with those chocolate chips on top?
Peanut Butter and Chocolate Overnight Oatmeal
- Stir all ingredients except chocolate chips in a bowl. Divide between 6 containers or jars.
- Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- In the morning, heat up to desired temperature and sprinkle with chocolate chips.
You don’t have to try our recipe as-is. It’s relatively standard to start with 1:1 dried ingredients and liquid for any overnight oatmeal recipe and go from there depending on your desired consistency.
That means for everyone one cup of oats and ingredients, you’ll add 1 cup of milk (or water, or whatever you choose).
Possible ingredients/toppings for overnight oatmeal include:
- Fresh fruit – strawberries, bananas, blackberries, blueberries, raspberries
- Dried fruit – dried apples, apricots, cherries, shredded coconut, cranberries, figs
- Granola, flaxseed meal or chia seeds
- Nuts – Almonds, walnuts, pecans (use as a topping the next day if you don’t want them soggy)
- Spices – nutmeg, cinnamon, cocoa powder, pumpkin pie spice
It’s pretty fun to experiment with some different combinations and see which one is your favorite!
I’d love to know in the comments – what is your favorite healthy overnight oats recipe?

This. Oh sweet gods, this was the most painful thing I've ever gone through. 2 hours. Wasn't bad at all, until they started filling in Latios's wings on my ribs. That was agony. But I am so happy to have this tattoo as my first. It's been about a month. All healed and set in. Very lovely. I just adore these two Eon dragons to bits. And it even has a lot of symbolic meaning to me. Latinas represents myself. A wild, free, boundless and fun-loving spirit who is so much more powerful than she seems. And Latios represents all those who have been my guardians. My late Master Ellis, who died protecting what he loved. My best friend, who has always been there for me when not even the light was. And he represents the strength it takes to push on. To be strong, and to have the courage it takes to sacrifice for what you love and believe in. I am just so happy to have these two etched into my skin. Contemplating adding a tribal Lugia to the other side, or up my back. Complete the trio, you know?
Feel free to use the design, but please let me know if you do and credit me if you post pictures of it anywhere!

Practice Relating to Rule 129. The Act of Displacement
Under Georgia’s Criminal Code (1999), “deportation or other unlawful transfer … of protected persons” in an international or non-international armed conflict is a crime.
Georgia’s Law on Internally Displaced Persons (2014) states:
Protection of the Population from Displacement
1. Each person living in Georgia shall be protected from forceful displacement.
2. The Government shall:
a) take all appropriate measures to avoid situations that may cause displacement;
c) minimize inevitable displacement and damages caused by it;
d) ensure that the displacement does not last longer than required in the given situation.
In 2012, in its fourth periodic report to the Human Rights Committee, Georgia stated:
During the reporting period, the Government of Georgia has been consistently continuing its policy aimed at ensuring full enjoyment of the rights provided in the Covenant for the entire State population. To this end, the obstacles of outstanding gravity were imposed by the war with the Russian Federation in August 2008 and subsequent occupation of two regions – Abkhazia, Georgia and the Tskhinvali region/South Ossetia, Georgia. From … early 2008, the security and human rights situation in the mentioned regions tangibly aggravated, which have gradually led to unbearable living conditions for the local ethnic Georgian population still remaining there, in spite of the foreign power-backed ethnic cleansing in early 1990s. … The human rights violations acquired an indiscriminate character during the war and resulted in the new wave of ethnic cleansing.
In 2014, in its fourth periodic report to the Committee on the Rights of the Child, Georgia stated:
Due to Russia’s occupation of Tskhinvali Region/South Ossetia and Abkhazia[,] Georgia has been prevented from the opportunity to ensure protection of human rights, including children’s rights in th[ose] parts of the country. Serious facts of discriminations and human rights violations have been reported by numerous … reputable international organizations, committed predominantly against population of Georgian origin. … As a result of ethnic cleansing[,] hundreds of thousands of IDPs [internally displaced persons], predominantly of Georgian origin, are unable to return to their homes due to their ethnic belonging. Families who live in conflict zones are under constant pressure. They are forced to obtain Russian citizenship. If they refuse to comply they are threatened with punitive measures or expulsion. | <urn:uuid:f8817e8d-999f-4508-80d8-cd63633e7343> | CC-MAIN-2021-25 | https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/customary-ihl/rus/docs/v2_cou_ge_rule129 | 2021-06-15T17:50:21Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-25/segments/1623487621450.29/warc/CC-MAIN-20210615145601-20210615175601-00223.warc.gz | en | 0.926093 | 504 |

I haven't completely adapted to the new math of my blogging. I'm group blogging over at Women of Mystery, which I continue to flog for obvious and silly reasons. But that's not really the place for the odd, thematic collections of pages I somehow continue saving. Here's where I've learned to unburden myself of those items, and still find myself enjoying it. Onto the goodies.
1) A food writer realizes he has a disposition towards gout and sky-high cholesterol right before he goes on a week-long exploration of Edwardian eating: formal dress, 5 viscous and multi-coursed meals a day, no liquid but hooch and coffee. For once, a supersizing experiment with class and pedigree, until he describes the digestive effects, that is.
2) Just because I like the phrase, read how binging tipplers may benefit from a "liver holiday".

As the U.S. Supreme Court readies itself to decide major cases about Obama's health care law, Arizona's notorious immigration law, and the constitutionality of the Voting Rights Act, a recent editorial in the New York Times focuses needed attention on the connection between the Supreme Court and mainstream politics. According to the Times:
Each case grows out of a struggle between left and right where politics have pushed the law: between a quest for universal coverage and the defense of big health care providers; between an emphasis on openness and hostility toward immigrants; and between a promise of access to the voting booth made nearly 50 years ago and the unyielding opposition to keeping that promise.
This is not a new story, not by any means, but its lessons are worth remembering: just as the law thrusts itself into politics, it is also true that "politics shape the court."
This is an important reminder, especially in an election year, when conservative candidates will undoubtedly intensify their promises to nominate "strict constructionists." The hypocrisy is palpable; judicial activism knows no one party or ideology. But one thing is true: conservatives have skillfully managed to set the terms of the debate. This means that a decision striking down the VRA, for example, would be seen in conservative quarters as a triumph of our new federalism, not as an activist response to the work of Congress; yet a decision upholding the health care law would similarly be seen as a constitutional failure to uphold federalist principles. This is clearly nonsense.
I am not sure what it will take to alter the terms of the debate. But we should not stop trying. | <urn:uuid:19bef7b7-553d-449b-8b4d-41cf01b07b40> | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | http://coloreddemos.blogspot.com/2012/02/word-on-supreme-court-and-old-strict.html | 2013-06-20T10:17:30Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2013-20/segments/1368711406217/warc/CC-MAIN-20130516133646-00077-ip-10-60-113-184.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.959723 | 329 |

Cyrus Alexander, lately Fitch's agent, had occupied Alexander Valley, and below him now live Lindsay Carson and Louis Legendre. 58
The hilly peninsula between the bay and ocean, named after the Indian chief Marin, is indebted for a comparatively compact occupation mainly to its position relative to other settlements, and to the impulse given by the now secularized and decaying mission establishment of San Rafael. This lovely spot was budding into a town, and contained several settlers," besides Timoteo Murphy, in charge of the mission esAbove extend the tracts of Novato and Nicasio, the latter owned by James Black, and adjoining, those of Ramon Mesa and Bartolomé Bojorques. Rafael García and Gregorio Briones are located on the ranchos of Tomales and Bolinas, owning many cattle; and William A. Richardson holds that of Sauzalito, which is already an anchorage and supply station, yet with aspirations cramped by the closely pressing hills, and overshadowed by the looming metropolis.63

62 The earliest settler here, since 1826, had been John J. Read, who subsequently obtained the Corte de Madera rancho, where he planted orchards and erected a grist-mill, followed by a saw-mill in 1843, the year of his death. Angel Island was for a time occupied by A. M. Osio. Among other settlers were Martin and Tom Wood, the latter a famous vaquero.
63 On the map presented I mark with preference the names of settlers, giving the rancho only when the actual holder is in doubt, as represented by proxy or tenant, or claiming merely by virtue of grant. The preceding matter has been drawn from official documents, books, and manuscripts, with no small supplementing by the mouths of living men
Such is the detail of the picture which I wish to present of central and northern California in January 1848. I will complete it with some generalities of physical features and population, thus giving as a whole the inhabitants and their environment.
It is the dawn of history in these parts, presently to be followed by a golden sunlight flooding the whole western world. All along the centuries California had lain slumbering, wrapt in obscurity, and lulled by the monotone of ocean. The first fitful dreams of explorers in search of an ever-eluding strait, of cities stored with treasures, had subsided into pastoral scenes, with converts and settlers clustering round white-walled missions in the shadow of the cross. Then came the awakening, impelled by a ruder invasion of soldiers and land-greedy backwoodsmen, the premonitory ripple of international interest and world-absorbing excitement.
Strewn lavishly about is what men most covet, those portions of nature's handiwork called wealth and wealth-making material, the acquisition of which is the great burden progressive men conventionally lay upon themselves as the price of their civilization. These resources reveal themselves in the long snow-clad uplands of the Sierra, with their timber and metals, in the northern foothills, revelling in perennial spring, and in the semi-tropic vegetation of the central and southern valleys. The extremes of heat and cold, of desert aridity and unhealthy rankness, are rare and of small extent, serving rather to illustrate as remnants the method and means of nature in producing one of her masterpieces. Such are the unsightly marshes in different localities; the Colorado desert bordering the river of that name, and its link along the eastern declivity of the Sierra Nevada with the great basin of the interior, which in the south is marked by a dismal stretch of bare ridges and intervening valleys of sand and volcanic scoria, with occasional muddy salt pools and cracked surfaces frosted
SOME PHYSICAL FEATURES.
with alkali, and in the south by a rugged lake basin. Yet even here the evil is superficial, for nature has left compensation in many valuable minerals; and art promises to continue her task of reclamation by means of palm-lined canals, health-bringing eucalyptus groves, and rain-inviting forests.
It is a terrane younger than the eastern seaboard, wrought not by the same slow and prosy process of ordinary strata formation, but in many a fit of sion, with upheavals and burstings asunder, with surging floods and scorching blasts. The soil yet quivers and is quick with electric force, and climatic moods are fitful as ever; here a gentle summer's holiday, there a winter of magnificent disorder; between, exhilarating spring, with buds and freshness, and beyond, a torrid fringe, parched and enervating. Side by side in close proximity are decided differences, with a partial subordination of latitude and season to local causes. Thus, on the peninsula of San Francisco winter appears in vernal warmth and vigor, and summer as damp and chilly autumn, while under the shelter of some ridge, or farther from the ocean, summer is hot and arid, and winter cold and frosty.
While configuration permits surprises, it also tempers them, and as a rule the variations are not sudden. The sea breezes are fairly constant whenever their refreshing presence is most needed, leaving rarely a night uncooled; and the seasons are marked enough within their mild extremes. At San Francisco a snow-fall is almost unknown, and a thunderstorm or a hot night extremely rare. Indeed, the sweltering days number scarcely half a dozen during the year. The average temperature is about 56 degrees Fahrenheit, which is the mean for spring. In summer and autumn this rises to 60 and 59, respectively, falling in winter to 51, while at Sacramento the average is 58 degrees, with 56°, 69°, 61°, and 45° for the four seasons respectively. At Humboldt Bay, in the north, the temperature varies from 43 degrees in
the winter to 57° in the summer, averaging 51°; and at San Diego, in the south, it ranges as the extremes from 52 to 71 degrees, while the average of summer and winter and night and day does not vary over ten degrees.
In summer an equilibrium is approached; in winter the tiresome reserve is broken. By early autumn a wide-spread deadness obtains; the hills wear a bleached appearance, the smaller streams are empty, the plain is parched and dusty, the soil cracked in fissures from excessive dryness; green fields have turned sere and yellow, and the weeds snap like glass when trodden It is the period of nature's repose. The grass is not dead, but sleepeth. When the winter rains begin, in November, after a respite of six months, vegetal life revives; the softened soil puts on fresh garments; the arid waste blossoms into a garden. The cooler air of winter condenses the vapor-laden winds of ocean, which, during the preceding months, are sapped of their moisture by the hot and thirsty air. And all this is effected with only half the amount of rain falling in the Atlantic states, the average at San Francisco being little over twenty inches annually, at Sacramento one tenth less, and at San Diego one half; while in the farther north the fall is heavier and more evenly distributed.
In this dry, exhilarating atmosphere the effect of the sun is not so depressing as in moister regions, and with cool, refreshing nights, the hottest days are bearable. It is one of the most vitalizing of climates for mind and body, ever stimulating to activity and enjoyment. Land and sea vie with each other in lifegiving supremacy, while man steps in to enjoy the benefits. When the one rises in undue warmth, the other frowns it down; when one grows cold and sullen, the other beams in happy sunshine. Winds and

THE AWAKENING AT HAND.
currents, sun and configuration, the warm stream from ancient Cathay, and the dominating mountains, all aid in the equalization of differences.
Thus lay the valley of California a-dreaming, with visions of empire far down the vistas of time, when behold, the great awakening is already at hand! Even now noiseless bells are ringing the ingathering of the nations; for here is presently to be found that cold, impassive element which civilization accepts as its symbol of the Most Desirable, and for which accordingly all men perform pilgrimage and crusade, to toil and fight and die. | <urn:uuid:b8fb7803-5732-4370-a79b-2e9afb20633e> | CC-MAIN-2022-49 | https://books.google.si/books?id=lXgQAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA25&focus=viewport&vq=%22In+the+newly+made+raceway+of+the+saw-mill+recently+erected+by+Captain+Sutter+on+the+American+fork,+gold+has+been%22&dq=editions:UOMDLPajl3430_0001_001&hl=sl&output=html_text | 2022-11-29T02:13:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-49/segments/1669446710684.84/warc/CC-MAIN-20221128235805-20221129025805-00654.warc.gz | en | 0.942372 | 2,065 |

Hi. I upgraded to WordPress 2.3 today because I just noticed a bug in the tagging plug-in I was using which means that any time I approved a comment for a particular post, the tags associated with that post vanished. Pretty weird huh? WordPress 2.3 has native tag support which means no more wonky plugin/WP interactions. It also has — hidden in the manage > import > section — a tag importer that will either import your tags from popular tag plugins or import your categories as tags. This is all good news. I managed to do the entire thing in about 20 minutes including adding tags to my current template, adding the tag cloud, downloading new versions of a few other plug-ins, and re-doing the little hacks I always make to my WordPress install including a custom stylesheet, removal of all the extra cruft from the dashboard, and pulling in a del.icio.us feed of the “addme” tag into my now blank dashboard area. Here are a few links that were helpful to me in doing this upgrade
I changed my permalink structure a bit here. URLs to individual posts now contain the post number and the post title. They will also work with just the post number, so old URLs will work fine. I’m expecting it to function with no problems at all, but I’ve been wrong before. If you notice anything squirrely, put a note in the comments or email me. Thanks.
There has been a definite drop-of fin email since I decided to get rid of the mailform and just post my email address which is a definite shame. However, I don’t get a lot of mail, so having to wade through hundreds of spam emails per day just to read a note or two was not worth my while. In any case, people still send me inteersting stuff, here is a sampling of what I’ve liked recently.
- The Monster Librarian – a reader’s advisory site for horror fiction readers. I especially enjoyed the Genre Reader’s Bill of Rights.
- AskMeNow – supposed to be “your mobile lifestyle network” it’s a fee-based ($0.25) IM readyref service you can access from your phone. Check out their editorial policies.
- Bryan pointed me towards this great WordPress comment spam reducer. You may have noticed a painfully simple comment challenge where you have to answer the question “what color is red?” If you get it right, you can leave a comment. It’s done wonders for the maintenance time I spend here.
- Paul sent along this great little bookplate from this awesome book blog. Paul has his own awesome book blog.
- Josh from LibLime — remember them, they do install.support of Koha — write to tellme they have an RSS feed for their news page and alerting me to their new fancy Koha ZOOM ILS. It’s very Googly, try it out at Nelsonville Public Library.
I seem to have found a comment form that works; thanks to everyone for their advice and suggestions. I have also used a slightly modified version of the sociable plugin to add tiny links beneath each post so that you can socially bookmark any of them via del.icio.us, digg or co.mments. Sociable supports a lot of social bookmarking services, but in the interests of keeping the icon-noise level down, I started with the three that I use. Are there other sites that are listed on the Sociable page that you use often? As always, you can track when I’m using for my WordPress install on the wordpress mods page.
Hi. Thanks for bearing with me during my protracted WordPress upgrade. What’s that you say? You hardly noticed? That must because a) the WP upgrade process is pretty darned easy if you can read a recipe and b) I am becoming a l337 WP h@XX0r. Not like I can build my own plugins, but I can noodle my way around all the WP files and CSS with ease. For reference, the latest WordPress version is 2.0.4. Check to make sure you’re using it, and upgrade all your plugins while you’re at it. You can take a look at my wordpress mods page to see what plugins I’m using. Feel free to let me know if anything’s not quite working right, I tried to put it all back together correctly. | <urn:uuid:24b0d3a5-c8ee-42b0-be35-fad7d8fd33a5> | CC-MAIN-2022-33 | https://www.librarian.net/tag/wordpress/page/3/ | 2022-08-14T13:37:05Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-33/segments/1659882572033.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20220814113403-20220814143403-00674.warc.gz | en | 0.944951 | 946 |

Other than the snafu I had yesterday dropping a stitch these were an easy knit. Did a simple k2p2. cast on 72 stitches.
I was up at 4:30 this morning and started laundry and cleaning up. Had let the cleaning go these past two weeks. In between loads of laundry I cast on another preemie hat. This will be a gift for my BFF 2nd daughters 2nd baby. I was done by noon. The pattern is from the Knitting 08 calendar January 3rd. Called Cabled Baby Hats. I did the five cable hat but messed up and only did 4 cables. Used an #3 Clover 36". Here is is being modled on my Miss Revlon doll. She has been with me since I was 10 or 11 years old.
Here are two of my purchases from Knitting at the Lake 2008. Robin's Dad make baskets. What talent this family has.
This is the yarn kit I brought from Mary Jane, from Unraveled. She put this kit together to knit from Sally Melville's Knit Book, which I happened to own, "Shape it Scarf". Mary Jane also figured out the yardage for the Ladder Scarf that Kati had made. Somewhere there is a picture of her on someones blog for the life of me I can not find it. So I need to figure out which one to make.
In addition to L have another baby, The Ashley Fister Cole Foundation will have an auction that I need to knit something for. Ashley was the daughter of a dear friend and co-worker. One of their events is coming up soon. Morning at the Movies. J told me what the movie was but I forgot. In the past 5 years it has been at the Merrifield Multiplex. If you live in No Va you must attend. It is a blast, the kids have always been well behaved. We have the theatre to our selves.
well, have to go and watch the three Lost shows the had this past week. | <urn:uuid:b97af549-2c4e-42d3-bed8-628ca23c1cc8> | CC-MAIN-2018-30 | http://kseekreations.blogspot.com/2008/02/another-pair-of-socks-finished.html | 2018-07-16T12:30:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-30/segments/1531676589270.3/warc/CC-MAIN-20180716115452-20180716135452-00523.warc.gz | en | 0.983239 | 418 |
Our young people face an unprecedented assault on their faith. It seems to come at them from every side. One area that is effectively used by the enemy is social media. On media like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, it is very easy for people to share rhetorically powerful posts that can leave young Christians scrambling to find an answer.
Recently, my 14-year-old niece showed me a meme that generated a lot of debate on Instagram. The meme pictured a Bible lying on its side with hundreds of colored tabs sticking out of it. The meme said, “The Good Book? Pink tabs are for murder, purple for human or animal sacrifice, blue for rape, yellow for slavery, and green for misogyny.”
The question that this meme was trying to raise was pretty clear: How can a book that contains murder, animal or human sacrifice, rape, slavery, and misogyny be called good?
When challenges like this come up, I have a question: Does a book necessarily approve of everything it records? The answer is obviously, no. Consider your favorite news reporter. Just because she tries to accurately report on immoral events, like murder and rape, that does not mean she is an evil person. In fact, the news reporter could be a good person and abhor the immoral behavior that she reports.
So this challenge rests upon a demonstrably false assumption. This challenge assumes that everything contained in the Bible is commended by the Bible. This is simply not true. There are many things in the Bible that are described, but not prescribed. For example, David’s sin of murder and adultery are faithfully recorded in Second Samuel. However, it would be a gross mistake to conclude that God, therefore, approved of those immoral acts. On the contrary, the Bible condemns both murder and adultery (Exodus 20:13, 14).
Therefore, it is mistaken to think that God approves of all that the Bible records. So going through the Bible and marking off every instance of murder, animal or human sacrifice, rape, slavery, and misogyny will not tell you if the Bible is a good book or not.
There is a reason the Bible is called the Good Book, and it has to do with all the evil that is recorded in the Bible. Romans 5:6–10 says,
For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. For one will scarcely die for a righteous person—though perhaps for a good person one would dare even to die—but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Since, therefore, we have now been justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God.
The Bible shows us just how wicked we really are. Read it for yourself. Everyone who has ever drawn breath is a sinner. Paul calls us all “ungodly” and deserving of the wrath of God. That is the bad news. The good news is that God has a plan to save us. The Bible is a record of the unfolding of the plan of redemption. So the Bible is called “the Good Book” because it contains the good news that Christ has died to save sinners like you and me. That sounds pretty good to me. | <urn:uuid:68593365-0946-49eb-ab38-2e551aaae0b4> | CC-MAIN-2021-43 | https://www.str.org/w/the-bible-does-not-approve-of-everything-it-records | 2021-10-25T14:51:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-43/segments/1634323587711.69/warc/CC-MAIN-20211025123123-20211025153123-00246.warc.gz | en | 0.978898 | 675 |
The Arole Oodua & Ooni of Ife, Ooni Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Ojaja II on Sunday moved into ILEDI house at Iremo quaters in Ile-Ife where he remains incommunicado in an annual 7-day seclusion kick-starting the 2018 OLOJO FESTIVAL.
Ooni Ogunwusi is expexted to end the 7-day seclusion on Saturday when he will appear to the public with the Oduduwa’s sacred AARE CROWN traditionally worn once in a year by the Ooni.
The royal father said that the 7-day seclusion will be used as a point of contact to the Almighty Olodumare(GOD) praying for the Kingdom of Ile-Ife, State of Osun and the entire Nigeria for a new dawn of socio-economic advancement.
The Ooni who is the Co-Chairman of National Council Of Traditional Rulers Of Nigeria congratulated the government and people of the State of Osun for conducting themselves maturely before, during and after last Saturday’s governorship election.
While he praised the government both at the state and Federal level for creating a level playing ground for the people to exercise their franchise, the Spiritual father of Yoruba race worldwide also lauded the electorate for standing firmly on their principles while casting their votes.and specially commended the youths for being agents of peaceful coexistence rather than being agents of political violence during the gubernatorial election.
He praised the politicians of all the political parties for their decorum, he lauded the security agents for their unbias display of professionalism and appreciated the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for conducting the Osun gubernatorial election free, fair and credible.
“We all have now observed through this election that power belongs to the people, by the grace of God, very soon the best candidate will emerge as the state governor of the state of Osun.
“Osun now sets the pace of peaceful political conduct in Nigeria because what presently happens here in our state has never happened in the history of Nigeria for the election has become successful without any blood shed even though it is not yet concluded” Ooni said.
The African foremost monarch urged Nigerians to use Osun election as a template and believe that election can run successfully without using war ammunitions, opined that something good can come out of the nation, saying all politicians must be people’s sensitive, adding that nobody can be taken for granted and people are always ready to fight for their rights.
The highly revered king appealed to Osun citizens to give peace a chance even in the next rerun election affecting just four Local Government Areas in the state. He asked citizens to welcome the winner with excitement as only the God’s will shall come to pass. | <urn:uuid:7086b28c-aacb-48c8-b332-1e09ba1202e1> | CC-MAIN-2020-24 | https://smileinternationalmagazine.com/olojo-festival-2018-ooni-goes-into-seclusion-lauds-osun-electorate/ | 2020-05-30T21:49:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-24/segments/1590347410352.47/warc/CC-MAIN-20200530200643-20200530230643-00328.warc.gz | en | 0.959243 | 592 |

Singaporeans will no longer be able to use PayPal to donate to foreign-registered charities and non-profit organisations (NPOs) by the end of the month.
Online payment giant PayPal will stop providing this service because it lacks the required remittance licence.
It ended its personal payment service last month for the same reason.
However, users here can still make PayPal donations to charities and NPOs registered locally.
Local charities can also still receive payments from PayPal users with accounts registered outside Singapore.
Online shoppers are unaffected.
The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) said in a response to The Straits Times that offering such a payment service without any underlying goods or services transacted requires a remittance licence, which PayPal does not have.
“We’re following a specific law that the local regulators have asked us to follow. We take compliance very seriously,” said Mr Lawrence Chan, PayPal’s Asia Pacific merchant services vice-president.
He added that the move came after recent discussions with the MAS.
PayPal has been incorporated and operating in Singapore since 2005.
Customers were informed of the change via e-mail on Wednesday.
The payments will be phased out starting Thursday – users being gradually unable to send donations to foreign charities – before being fully discontinued by March 31.
Mr Chan said the number of affected customers is “very small” as PayPal’s core business is payment for commercial transactions.
He declined to give details on how many PayPal users there are in Singapore.
Last month, PayPal stopped allowing users here to wire money to one another, or overseas, for personal transactions like cash gifts.
PayPal has no plans to roll back any other payment service, said Mr Chan.
He declined to comment on whether the company will be seeking a remittance licence.
“We’re still supporting charities. They can still use us, they just have to register locally,” he said.
But national director of Habitat for Humanity Singapore Yong Teck Meng said the move would make donations to foreign countries harder. “If you encourage Singaporeans to give overseas, you’re elevating the whole giving culture and you’ll benefit locally as well (by making Singapore a better, more giving society). If you stop folks from giving overseas, you encourage a selfish mindset in charity.”
Habitat for Humanity Singapore will not be too affected as it is registered here and less than 5 per cent of its donors use PayPal, added Mr Yong.
The Money-Changing and Remittance Businesses Act requires remittance businesses to be licensed, banking law academic Sandra Booysen told The Straits Times.
The Act reduces the risk of people losing their money by trying to ensure that entities receiving remittance money are of good character and financially sound, said the assistant professor at the National University of Singapore.
“It is not a case of the MAS trying to obstruct donations to charity; it sounds to me to be a case of applying the law and requiring remittance businesses to be licensed,” said Prof Booysen. | <urn:uuid:900115bd-f6eb-4abe-82a5-ab597e7dd24d> | CC-MAIN-2019-18 | http://manjushrieducational.org/2014/03/ | 2019-04-23T12:30:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-18/segments/1555578602767.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20190423114901-20190423140901-00468.warc.gz | en | 0.757068 | 1,578 |

As a freelancer, it can be fairly straightforward to manage growth and scale modestly. You can increase your rates, double down on the number of hours you work, or diversify your offering. But at some point, you will run out of time. Freelancers are ultimately selling hours. And as a freelancer, those hours are limited.
Determining if and when you should hire employees to scale your business can be a challenge. This post will arm you with the information you need to make those hard decisions.
Understand the limitations of freelancing
The absolute maximum number of hours that a freelancer can work in a day is twenty-four. But that is neither sustainable nor scalable. Take into consideration your life circumstances and how many hours you can reasonably devote to your freelance business, without radically compromising your sense of work-life balance.
Once you have determined how many hours you are prepared to work, you should also think about the maximum amount you can charge clients for the work you do. Scope out market standards and compare your rates with the competition.
Multiplying your maximum number of chargeable hours by your maximum rates will determine your freelance business’ maximum potential earnings.
You may decide that this is an amount you can live with indefinitely. Or you may not. But identifying those limitations is a critical first step in deciding if and when you want to hire an additional resource.
Consider contractors (vs. employees)
While employees help you scale your business, they reduce margins and necessarily bring with them certain headaches and costs.
Before you commit to hiring employees, you might want to consider outsourcing to contractors. This option provides flexibility as well as potential access to a greater level of skill and expertise.
Commoditize your services
Another way to scale your business, without having to hire employees, is to commoditize. Consider whether or not there is a way to add a product to your offering – a book, a video series, an automated e-learning course or a widget. This will provide an additional revenue stream that will not necessarily drain the same amount of time and energy.
Are you risk averse?
Taking on an employee involves some risk. You will have payroll to meet. You will have ongoing HR considerations. You will need to train your employees. They may not work out. These are all serious considerations, and you need to assess your appetite for risk against your desire to scale your business. The net gains may not outweigh the costs.
If you are thinking of growing your business and hiring an employee, contact Miller Bernstein today to help determine if it is the right decision. | <urn:uuid:1b1f62de-5c93-40b2-b868-2e16356a4ff9> | CC-MAIN-2022-49 | https://millerbernstein.com/2016/09/29/expand-freelance-business-hire-employees/ | 2022-11-28T11:17:32Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-49/segments/1669446710503.24/warc/CC-MAIN-20221128102824-20221128132824-00308.warc.gz | en | 0.942824 | 535 |
If you have an Android phone, you may or may not know that the software and apps on your phone can be upgraded to give you access to new features. The version you have may not be the latest and greatest version available. So how do you update the operating system (OS) and apps to get access to the new features?
If you have purchased a phone in the last year to year and a half there may be an operating system upgrade available and the app developers are constantly updating the apps. Keeping your apps and operating system updated is a good way to make sure your phone operates at it’s best performance and you have all the features available to you.
Updating your phone is fairly simple and you can follow along in the video or walk through the steps below.
To update your operating system follow these steps; from the home screen go into your app list > Settings > (About Phone>System Updates) or just System Updates > check for upgrade.
To update your apps; go to your Play Store > Menu Button or My Apps > update all or update each > manual update > accept and download.
Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and Android Jelly Bean 4.1 are the latest operating system that most phones at the time this article is being published will use. Not all Android phones are created equally, your phone knows what it can work with and what it can’t.
PCMag recently wrote an article about which phones come with Ice Cream Sandwich OS and which may be getting it in the future. If your phone isn’t on that list, well its probably time to get a new phone. If it’s not on the list, it probably means your phone’s processor is outdated, your wireless provider will not provide the update or your phone may not support the OS upgrade.
In a few weeks we will have a post, “4 Differences in Android Phones,” so you can make sure you get the features you need when shopping for a new Android phone. Additionally we are another popular Android topic; “how to make sure your contacts and calendar sync to cloud.” If you don’t have a Nexus Google phone these don’t always happen automatically.
Tell us what you think!

Is there any way to filter out tasks based on how their due date is modified?
I'd like to be able to make a list of tasks due today (or overdue) where the date is not optional.
I have a lot of optional repeating tasks, where the world really won't come to an end if the due date isn't met. In any other circumstance, I'd only list a start date, but then I can't have them repeat on their own, like they do if the due date is optional.
So, I guess if filtering based on due date modifiers isn't possible, it would be nice to set up repeating optional tasks based off the start date, so they don't distract me from the tasks which are vitally due today. | <urn:uuid:3da786a4-2f63-426a-88bd-95c44aa83309> | CC-MAIN-2014-35 | http://www.toodledo.com/forums/2/4777/0/filtering-optional-tasks.html | 2014-08-27T10:52:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-35/segments/1408500829210.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20140820021349-00310-ip-10-180-136-8.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.970783 | 154 |
Many are the times when I’ve been told that I am a lot. Not only in the sense that I talk a lot but also that I think a lot (overthink?). Just the other day I was told that I am “wordy” which to be honest made me chuckle a bit.
This is like when I thought I was convinced I am a quiet drunk. I mean, I don’t even know why I thought that in the first place but that’s besides the point.
Is being “a lot” a bad thing? I can see why it would have a negative connotation especially in this world where we are forced to shrink ourselves. You know at times I’m not doing it purposely. It is just who I am. Some is genetics and if you’ve met my mum you know what I mean.
I wonder if someone can say that I share a lot. I probably do tell people a lot of what I’m doing. Is that being a lot? I don’t know. Is my “a-lot-ness” my defining characteristic? 😏 | <urn:uuid:d005fbe7-8581-48b2-908e-fd723a911492> | CC-MAIN-2022-27 | https://ciiku.me/2019/09/09/on-being-a-lot/ | 2022-06-24T23:17:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-27/segments/1656103033816.0/warc/CC-MAIN-20220624213908-20220625003908-00259.warc.gz | en | 0.981969 | 239 |

I spent a fantastic week in the San Francisco area in February to attend the Wisdom 2.0 conference, a gathering of 3,000 people enthusiastic about mindfulness, meditation, inner wisdom, business and tech.
I'll be sharing a series of posts from that trip alone, which was infused daily with so much serendipity that I came back with even greater confidence that my work with purpose and inner empowerment is much-needed and necessary for the modern soul.
Among the many highlights was a panel on Mindfulness & Medicine: The Future of Healthcare with Mark Bertolini, CEO of Aetna, Tim Ryan, Congressperson of Ohio (D), and Jon Kabat-Zinn, the father of evidence-based mindfulness-based stress-reduction (MBSR).
As someone who worked in the healthcare technology field for a few years, creating initiatives that link startups with hospitals seeking to pilot technologies with patients, I kept coming back to the fact that tech can be nice, but sometimes we were never really treating the root of the underlying problem.
And, as a patient of this medical system myself who believes that my inability to counter stress for years plus diet/nutrition issues from social pressures led in part to full-blown medical issues, I was literally sitting at the edge of my seat with this star panel, hanging onto every word.
They talked about:
- how an Uber-for-nurses could revolutionalize how we receive preventative care and promote community economic development (entrepreneurs - JUMP on this idea!)
- how government needs to align their spending to things that actually work to promote health, creating better living and working conditions and healthy environments
- how Bertolini used mindfulness and yoga to ease his constant pain after a horrific, near-fatal ski accident
- how Aetna has a Chief Mindfulness Officer(!), and gave its employees FREE meditation, mindfulness and yoga, and even did a study showing the decrease in healthcare costs, decrease in stress (cortisol levels) and increase in productivity.
- how schools across the country are seeing the incredible effects of mindfulness on lowering student suspension rates and cortisol (stress) levels, while increasing focus
The private Q&A afterwards was even better -- clinicians, dentists, patients, teachers, and parents all talked about how stress relates to mental health, physical health, and how more can be done to advance how institutions are providing health-care as opposed to disease-care.
This, of course, needs cooperation with federal and state governments in relation to billing and reimbursements and what types of providers and practitioners are allowed to offer service.
In addition, we need new public or private sources to fund rigorous clinical studies. Aetna published the results of their own study in the Journal of Occupational Health and is investing its own funds via the Aetna Foundation on related research and programs. (See a New York Times article here and a PBS segment interviewing Bertolini for more resources).
I came away, first of all, excited that these leaders are being the pioneers to integrate inner empowerment with everyday life in the corporate world. We all know that people need to lower stress and it takes time and guts for people to stand up for something that works, that may not be "conventional."
At the 2015 Integrative Health Conference, I remember that physicians talked about how effective and inexpensive alternative treatments are, including acupuncture, and how misunderstood they were for decades (and to some extent, still misunderstood). In fact, the Department of Defense had pioneered research and field studies in acupuncture and other forms of pain management years before it entered mainstream medicine.
Secondly, I came away inspired that people in the audience are all interested in seeing more advancement of integrative therapies and alternative therapies in their lifetime. The conference made it clear that just a few years ago, CEOs and leaders of our country used to be afraid to talk about mindfulness, meditation, or yoga, and now they are more likely to speak openly about it. Now it takes cooperation, cross-sector movement, and apparently organizing people to petition their congressperson to promote more opportunities in health and integrative medicine.
My third, and greatest takeaway, is that the more we have actual dialogue about inner empowerment and its role in everyday life, and the more people can experience its effects in lowering stress, the better.
Anyone interested in continuing the conversation in New York City? I'd love to start or be a part of these types of dialogues. Only with open conversation can we create anything truly inspired and game-changing. | <urn:uuid:3116b8a8-b387-4dfa-a683-d0259496d534> | CC-MAIN-2019-09 | http://www.beingmypurpose.com/blog/?category=Important+Conversations | 2019-02-16T20:44:46Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-09/segments/1550247481111.41/warc/CC-MAIN-20190216190407-20190216212407-00315.warc.gz | en | 0.958643 | 926 |

We found that CHRM3 was upregulated in a large?subset of?BPH samples. cells in the proliferating state, and blockade of ACS may have clinical implications for the management of BPH. Results Existence of ACS in the Developing Mouse Prostate Epithelium Our previous study demonstrated the existence of functional ACS in regulating prostate cancer growth and castration resistance (Wang et?al., 2015b). However, whether there is also an ACS in developing prostate epithelium and how this ACS regulates prostate development has not been determined. To examine the expression of cholinergic components in developing prostates, we performed immunofluorescent NMA staining of TUJ-1 (a specific neuronal lineage marker) and ChAT (choline acetyltransferase, a key enzyme for the synthesis of acetylcholine) in P5 mouse ventral prostate (VP) sections. While a substantial number of TUJ-1 immunoreactive nerve fibers were observed in the mesenchyme, no nerve fiber was seen inside the epithelium (Figure?1A). In sharp contrast, epithelial cells were strongly immunoreactive for ChAT, a key enzyme responsible for the synthesis of acetylcholine (Figure?1B). In addition, western blotting analysis confirmed the expression of?ChAT and vesicular CID 755673 acetylcholine transporter (VAChT) in postnatal mouse VPs (Figure?1C). Furthermore, we performed a fluorometric analysis to measure the synthesis of acetylcholine in isolated mouse VPs. We found that the isolated VPs could secrete acetylcholine after 2?days in cultures (Figure?1D). Since the parasympathetic nerve fibers were cut off during the dissection of VPs, most of the nerve fibers had degenerated and lost their functions after 2?days in culture (Figures S1A and S1B). Therefore, the acetylcholine was synthesized and secreted by prostate epithelial cells rather than from the nerve endings. Open in a separate window Figure?1 Prostate Epithelial Cells Express Cholinergic Markers and Release Non-neuronal Acetylcholine (A) Immunostaining of TUJ-1 (red) in P5 mouse VP sections showing lack of nerve fibers in epithelial tissues. Scale bar, 50?m. (B) Immunofluorescent images showing epithelium-specific expressing of ChAT (green) in P5 mouse VP tissue sections. Scale bar, 100?m. (C) Western blotting analysis of ChAT and VAChT CID 755673 proteins in various mouse tissues.

(F) Real-time PCR analysis of levels in P5 mouse epithelial cells and mesenchymal cells (n?= 3 experiments). (G) Immunofluorescent staining of CHRM3 (green) and CK5 (red) in developing mouse VPs. Scale bar, 50?m. Data above were analyzed?with Student’s t test. ?p?< 0.05, ??p?< 0.01, ???p?< 0.001. Error bars indicate?SEM. Activation of ACS needs not only the non-neuronal acetylcholine, but also the expression of muscarinic receptors in prostate epithelial cells. To examine the expression of muscarinic receptors in developing mouse prostate, we sorted prostate epithelial cells (lineage?EpCAM+) from mesenchymal cells (lineage?EpCAM?) by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) (Figure?1E) CID 755673 and measured the expression of muscarinic receptors, and were expressed at higher levels in?the mesenchymal cells than in the epithelial cells (Figure?1F), expression levels of and did not show much difference between the epithelium and the stroma. In sharp contrast, was more abundant in the epithelium than in the mesenchyme (Figure?1F). Immunofluorescent staining also confirmed the epithelium-specific expression of in P5 mouse VP sections (Figure?1G). All these data demonstrate the presence of acetylcholine, ChAT, VAChT, and muscarinic receptors in the developing mouse prostate epithelium. Consistent with CID 755673 our previous study that identified the existence of ACS in human prostate epithelial cancer cells, these findings together suggest that there is an ACS in the developing mouse prostate epithelium. ACS Regulates the Proliferation and Differentiation of Epithelial Progenitor Cells in Prostate Postnatal Development To investigate the possible functions of ACS in regulating prostate postnatal development, we performed organotypic cultures as previously described, as a convenient working system (Leong et?al., 2008, Wang et?al., 2008). To validate the organotypic cultures, we compared the expression patterns of ACS molecules in freshly dissected tissues versus the organotypic cultures. As shown in Figures S1C and S1D, we found that the cellular expression pattern of CHRM3 and ChAT in the 2-day organotypic cultures was the same as freshly dissected prostate tissues (Figures 1B and 1G). Real-time PCR analysis also demonstrated that the expression of cholinergic-signaling-related genes remained unchanged (Figure?S1E). These data validate that the organotypic culture system is reliable to study the roles of ACS in regulating prostate postnatal development. For organotypic cultures, postnatal day 5 (P5) mouse VPs were isolated and cultured in the presence of 10?M muscarinic receptor agonist carbachol. The branching morphogenesis was analyzed by counting the number of. | <urn:uuid:28583791-361f-4f7b-9df2-e179292a6c00> | CC-MAIN-2021-49 | https://cancerportfolio.com/%EF%BB%BFwe-found-that-chrm3-was-upregulated-in-a-largesubset-ofbph-samples/ | 2021-11-30T23:28:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-49/segments/1637964359082.76/warc/CC-MAIN-20211130232232-20211201022232-00201.warc.gz | en | 0.914232 | 1,267 |

Thank you for your question. There are several possibilities — but the fact that it has become a concern is the most important thing. Since it has been going on for quite a while and it seems to be more frequent suggests it is time to bring it to the attention of a neurologist. This will help determine if this is a purely psychological or neurological happening. From there you’ll be able to put a plan together for treatment.
Problems with Zoning OutAsked by xXEllieXx on with 1 answer:
From England: Okay so ever since I was very young I’ve had a problem with zoning out. When I was about 4 my parents became very worried, I zoned out in the middle of conversations and I could be walking from one room to another and end up walking into a door or wall because of it. I have two older siblings and neither of them ever did this so my mum was ready to bring me to the doctors but my dad thought it was just my age as well as an over active imagination. My older sister has aspergers syndrome so my mum feared the worst but when I was older (around 6-7) I got checked for this and like my other older sister, I was fine. I still did well in school, it never really affected that but I did zone out in class occasionally. It never went away but was less frequent after around 10 years old however now I am 15 and for at least 6 months now it seems to have been becoming more and more frequent. I’m zoning out more and more and when I finally snap back into reality I’m not even sure how much time has passed, its kind of like being in a trance. Its not like it only happens when I’m bored, I can be doing something I really enjoy and then I just zone out. I’m also developing a strange liking for a little bubble I’m starting to create, which is totally separate from the zoning out as I actually feel conscious during it. I just go into a kind of ‘bubble’ and begin imagining different things, I find this really comforting but I’m concerned about how much I’m enjoying it, I could do it for hours on end and it feels so much better then real life. I’m more concerned about the zoning out more though as I’m not actively imagining or thinking during it, I’m just kind of not there and I cant stop it happening, it just happens whenever. I definitely don’t think I have ADD or anything, I would just like to know whether I should be concerned about this behaviour or not.Problems with Zoning Out | <urn:uuid:e3144e47-7a4d-4429-ba52-4c366f55c57a> | CC-MAIN-2019-22 | https://psychcentral.com/ask-the-therapist/2016/08/16/problems-with-zoning-out/ | 2019-05-22T13:33:03Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-22/segments/1558232256812.65/warc/CC-MAIN-20190522123236-20190522145236-00399.warc.gz | en | 0.986765 | 556 |

NEW YORK — Maybelline New York is launching in June its new Mega Plush by Volum’ Express mascara, which marks the brand’s first gel-mousse mascara.
“Mega Plush gives women the lush lashes they crave. The look is fullness to the max, yet the technology behind the formula keeps lashes soft and supple so they won’t feel stiff or brittle,” stated Ali Goldstein, VP marketing for Maybelline New York-Garnier. “This is a breakthrough in the volume category.”
The new gel-mousse formula contains 40% less hard waxes. Volume is further amplified through its Flexor Brush technology. The oversized brush works two ways: The big bristles envelop each lash, while the flexible head shock-absorbs for less pulling and more lifting.
The new Mega Plush mascara, which comes in five shades, will be available beginning in June at a suggested retail price of $7.77. | <urn:uuid:d0007d6c-a8e7-4848-9ad6-302d59298378> | CC-MAIN-2015-32 | http://www.drugstorenews.com/print/477571 | 2015-07-28T06:53:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-32/segments/1438042981576.7/warc/CC-MAIN-20150728002301-00068-ip-10-236-191-2.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.903208 | 205 |

Seniors lose to Dolphin in Cork
- Published on 03 March 2013
We travelled to Cork to play Dolphin RFC in hope that we could win and kick start the rest of the season, and stay ahead of our neighbours Shannon. It proved to be a dissapointing afternoon on both counts.
Match Photos HERE
Playing into a slight breeze in the first half, we fell behind to a 2nd minute penalty by Barry Keeshan, who was virtually unerring for the afternoon.
We had an opportunity to level the scores in the 4th minute, but the kick went wide. We continued to press forward, and enjoyed a good deal of possession, but were unable to make any breakthrough, against the Dolphin defence. Their scrum and lineout was very solid, and in the18th minute we missed a drop goal attempt. From the drop off, they surged upfield and were awarded a penalty in the 20th minute, which was converted. Score 0-6.
Dolphin began to play a more expansive game and scored a good try in the 23rd min. We defended well for a period, but it seemed that anytime we got a turnover, we knocked-on or took the wrong option. Another penalty in the 31st min saw Dolphin increase their lead to 0-14.
We again attacked the Dolphin line and we were awarded a penalty which JJ Hanrahan converted. With the hope of narrowing the lead even further, before halftime, we leaked another try in the 40th min to leave the score 3-21 at the break. A dissapointing half for us, where it seemed that everytime Dolphin got into our half, they scored.
The 2nd half started well for us, and continued pressure earned us 2 penalties in the 45th and 53rd mins. Ben Martin kicked both, and the score was 9-21. Jack oDonoghue and Brian Walsh came on at this stage, and there was a glimmer of hope that we might further reduce the lead, but were unable to maintain the pressure.
A penalty and a drop goal within 2 min for Dolphin, increased the lead to 9-24, which, try as we did, were not able to reduce the lead. There were some encouraging displays from Mark Abraham, John Sutton and Conor Kindregan, and when Jack and Brian came on, they were always busy.
Dolphin got another penalty in the 77th min to complete the scoring at 9-27.
Not a great day for us, but we've got to carry on, and reduce our handling errors, and be more efficient with the ball in hand.

We are university students, and we do not have a place to hold Eid prayers or prayers for rain. For the last four years we have held these prayers in the sports stadium of the college, which is open and has a plastic surface covering the floor. What is the ruling on these prayers in this place?
Praise be to Allaah.
There is nothing wrong with your praying in this place. The events that happen there (sports) do not mean that the Eid prayers and prayers for rain cannot be held there, so long as it is clean and pure (taahir) and there are no impurities (najaasah) present. If you can find a better place of your own, that would be preferable. And Allaah is the Source of strength. | <urn:uuid:932f1cd9-86f5-446e-a73f-4fd8156440f2> | CC-MAIN-2015-14 | http://islamqa.info/en/10506 | 2015-03-31T05:33:33Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-14/segments/1427131300313.14/warc/CC-MAIN-20150323172140-00066-ip-10-168-14-71.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.96759 | 156 |

Dyson, the British company best known for vacuum cleaners and prized hair dryers, confirmed that its Board has ratified a decision to construct its first advanced automotive manufacturing facility in Singapore. The manufacturing facility is scheduled for completion in 2020. Earlier this year Dyson announced it was in the process of investing 200 million Euros in new buildings and testing facilities at its campus at Hullavington Airfield, UK. It continues its 2.5 billion Euros investment in new technology globally.
The first EV from Dyson will be launched in 2021
Jim Rowan, CEO of Dyson said, “The decision of where to make our car is complex, based on supply chains, access to markets, and the availability of the expertise that will help us achieve our ambitions. I am delighted to let you know that the Dyson Board has now decided that our first automotive manufacturing facility will be in Singapore. We will begin construction in December and it will be completed in 2020, meeting our project timeline.”
Dyson’s history in Singapore began 11 years ago with a small engineering team developing our high speed, digital, electric motors. The company has grown significantly since then, as it now employs 1,100 people, and has made over fifty million high-speed Dyson Digital Motors in Singapore.
The company plans to bring out its first electric car by 2021.

As a new mom, it can be really hard to take care of yourself with a little one becoming the center of your world. But it’s so important to make sure you are taking care of yourself so you can take care of your baby! So, here are my tried-and-true healthy living tips for new moms:
Definitely first on the list. Hydrating when you are pregnant is important, and it is just as important while you are nursing. The pros out there suggest drinking an 8oz each time you nurse. Lack of the appropriate amount of water/fluids is proven to increase your fatigue, and you don’t need any more than what you may already be feeling! My beverage of choice is usually water, but sometimes it just gets old, so I definitely gravitate towards something with a sweet fruit taste, but doesn’t have a ton of calories (or sugar).
I checked out my options at Walmart and stocked up on a few tasty drinks…
I grabbed the Diet Peach Tea Snapple, Neuro Bliss, and Brasilia Blueberry Bai5. (I want to try that Vita Coco soon too!) They are all pretty low in calories and taste great- a nice pick me up and change from water when I get tired of it.
2. Snack smart.
It’s hard to find time to prepare full out recipes (or meals), so having smart snacks around to curb your appetite is really helpful. It’s easy to grab a handful of chips or in my case- chocolate chips. But I try to keep fresh fruit and veggies on hand in single serve containers so I can just grab it and go. I also try to make a habit of hydrating and having a snack (beverage + fruit + lactation cookie, usually) when I am pumping to keep up my supply and to keep my energy going throughout the day in case I forget to eat (it happens, trust me!) It’s so important to get those nutrients in so you can pass them on to your little.
Let’s face it. Sometimes it’s difficult to find the time to shower everyday (and on days when you aren’t leaving the house, why bother, right?!) But honestly, a shower will make you feel like a million bucks. Turn on that warm water, lather up with your favorite body wash scent and just close your eyes. It’s invigorating and almost as good as a nap. Almost.
4. Take those vitamins.
Don’t forget to continue taking your prenatal vitamins. I’ve also heard that taking fenugreek helps with supply for nursing mamas (I got mine on Amazon). Try to keep all your medications in one place and take them at the same time of the day so it becomes a habit and you don’t forget! For me, it’s right by the coffee maker when I have my morning cup.
5. Accept Help
I was so grateful that T had two weeks of paternity leave, but after that, it was hard those first few weeks on my own during the day! My parents helped quite a bit, and friends would visit and bring freezer meals, dinner for that night, lactation cookies, you name it. Accept as much help as you need and don’t be afraid to ask for help either!
6. It’s ok to say “no”
At the same time, it’s ok so say no to some things. It’s important to have alone time with your spouse and new baby and get adjusted to your “new normal.” Even in the hospital, it felt like such a whirlwind that we only had our parents visit since we were incredibly tired and never really sleeping with doctors, nurses continually popping in. It is overwhelming to bring home a new baby and you are very sleep deprived getting used to a new routine. Sometimes, visitors who mean well, don’t realize how exhausting it can be. You love them, but it is okay to say “no” to visitors when you need space or are exhausted.
7. Take it all in.
Relax. Breathe deep. Snuggle with your baby. Savor all the precious moments and memories. It goes by so extremely fast. Don’t worry about the dirty dishes, piles of laundry, or long to-do list. I know I had a hard time with this initially and am still trying to work at it. But just remember to slow down and simply enjoy your new little bundle of joy!
Phew! If you made it through all those tips and pieces of advice- congrats! Here’s a little something to help you live a healthy lifestyle: enter to win a $50 WalMart gift card and $150 fitness tracker via the widget below.

Sometimes cycling shorts, whether they are baggy or Lycra are not up to the task and a set of dedicated cycling pants is the way forward. Offering extra protection from the elements as well as looking considerably more relaxed than Lycra shorts or tights, cycling pants offer a great alternative to the norm.
Cycling pants generally come in two styles, with one designed for casual cycling and commuting and the other built specifically for mountain biking. Commuter cycling pants are often highly durable, wind and waterproof and built to last and keep you safe on the road. With reflective detailing teamed with a casual look, these are great for all-round cycling use whether it's a short ride to work or several miles.
MTB pants are more specialized and offer much more padding and support to absorb the bumps. Many are designed to withstand the rigours of pure downhill mountain abuse and are tested at the very highest level on the World Cup circuit by the worlds best riders. Tough, rugged and incredibly stylish, no discerning downhill rider would be without a set of MTB pants! | <urn:uuid:eed6547f-013c-49e9-9822-9ec98d01b996> | CC-MAIN-2019-43 | https://www.tweekscycles.com/jp/clothing/clothing/cycling-pants/ | 2019-10-16T19:37:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-43/segments/1570986669546.24/warc/CC-MAIN-20191016190431-20191016213931-00217.warc.gz | en | 0.956496 | 218 |
I spent a good few hours plying my two bobbins of singles into one fat bobbin of two ply! I get obsessed at this point and can’t leave things alone until I have a new skein measured, washed and wound. I am so, so happy with this yarn!
It is 440 (!) yards of two ply in lace weight. This one is all mine. I am now going to spend a lot of time choosing the right pattern to make that knitted hug for myself.
First TdF goal completed!
I had a (surprisingly large) amount left over on one of my bobbins, I obviously lost a bit of energy and motivation on the last bobbin and decided enough was more than enough! So I spindle spun some white merino and plied them together into a summery barber-pole striped skein.
It reminds me of the blue and white porcelain from Hong Kong and Singapore that my mum collected years ago.
Onto the second TdF goal. I had a few futile attempts at spinning the silk on its own, but it just wasn’t going to be yarn that I could use (or look at). So, I had it blended with some white merino…
and my goal is to spindle spin a minimum of 100 yards on my bottom-whorl drop spindle. With only, what? One day left? I think that should be enough of challenge! | <urn:uuid:b0b88888-9ee9-4301-94cc-b588acdd9ef9> | CC-MAIN-2018-05 | https://whilemollynaps.com/2012/07/20/tour-de-fleece-part-deux/ | 2018-01-16T20:53:24Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-05/segments/1516084886739.5/warc/CC-MAIN-20180116204303-20180116224303-00214.warc.gz | en | 0.963751 | 302 |
This week, I’ve had to deal with some pretty tricky builders who have told big fibs and been unreliable. It has called upon me to be brave and confront them with my powerful voice. I find this difficult. I think we all do. Nobody relishes conversations like that. The alternative is to put up with it (be passive) or get all het up and shout at them (aggressive) which won’t get me anywhere.
I knew that the only way I was going to overcome it was to face my fear and step out of my comfort zone.
What is your powerful voice?
Your powerful voice is the one which you use when you are able to stand up for yourself, say you don’t like something or ask for what you want whilst staying calm remembering to be polite and respecting the other person. I want you to think about:
When might you need your powerful voice?
Children who are bullied or who have tricky friends really need to locate their powerful voice. It’s like a magic bullet which will keep them safe if they push beyond the scared feelings.
When do you feel you can speak up most easily?
A lot of us are more comfortable talking about tricky subjects in writing or on the phone because we have time to compose our reply. Have you seen those gorgeous books for parents, called Just Between Us where you and your child become penpals for those tricky topics. Children also like to talk when they think you can’t see them – in the dark when you tuck them in at night or in the car when you can only fix your gaze on the road ahead. At this point, I think it helps to reflect and ask if you are creating an environment conducive to sharing for your child?
When you are able to say what you feel, it’s great isn’t it? To be able to say how you feel is liberating. You have taken back your power. This is why I like to call it your powerful voice. You feel strong and confident. It feels like you are being you with nothing do hide. Do you feel carefree – like you have nothing to worry about or nothing to fear?
What happens if you don’t speak up?
When we swallow our feelings down or hold back on our words, it’s not good for us and we also give away our power to the other person. We need to be like our own best friend. We need to be loyal and true to ourselves. I also know some people who don’t say anything and then they go and complain about you to other people. Maybe you are too scared to tell them how you feel and you need some help learning how to deal with tricky people.
This is about having a win-win for both parties
Here are my top tips for discovering and using your powerful voice when you need to:
Tone of Voice & Body Language
- Shoulders back, stand tall and make eye contact
- Keep your body language open (no crossed arms or finger pointing)
- Smile and breathe (relaaaax)
- Be polite and have respect for the other person
- Keep your voice steady and clear (no mumbling or hesitating)
- It helps to remember you are on the same team so you can reach a compromise
It’s important that we listen as well as much as we use our powerful voice so we can hear what the other person wants as well.
Use I Statements
This is so that you take responsibility for your feelings and aren’t accusing the other person. So for example, you could say ‘I feel upset when you are mean to me. That is rude and not OK. Then you can make a request for what you want. ‘I would like you to speak to me respectfully.’
I find it helps to write down what you want to say and to say it aloud in front of a mirror or do a role play with a friend. Keep saying it like you are learning lines for a play.
The first time you step up and stand up for yourself, you may feel afraid. This is normal. Take deep breaths and go for it. You will feel fab afterwards and the more often you use your powerful voice, the more confident you will be. It’s like going to the gym to tone your muscles, flex your powerful voice as often as you can and it will come to you more naturally.
What stops you from doing it?
Sometimes children say to me that they are scared something bad will happen but they can’t tell me what it is. I think that’s because they have been punished for speaking up before. Other children tell me they are afraid that other people won’t believe them or they are worried people will think they are rude.
That’s because in the past these children have been punished for standing up for themselves or people have dismissed their stories or not believed them. Or they have been told they are mean or rude for standing their ground. I think this where authoritarian parenting falls short because it incites fear in the child and is the ‘do as you are told’ mentality which takes away the child’s voice and their ability to take charge in certain situations. They seek permission to do things instead of taking the initiative. This is why I’m a huge fan of Connection Parenting which role models respect and kindness.
It’s most definitely possible to be assertive and forceful without being rude or mean. If you follow the steps I’ve mentioned above and practise (Watch your tone of voice and body language) you can do it!
What if somebody still won’t listen?
Become a parrot ! What do parrots do? They repeat themselves over and over again. So you might say something like: ‘I don’t want to…’ Yes but I don’t want to….’Yes I hear what you are saying but I have said I don’t want to.
If you want to learn more about sticking up for yourself, setting boundaries with others and dealing with tricky people, Smiley Coaching can help you with that. I have two things to help you:
- some free parents for training for you so that you can safeguard your child for life
- I also have a new course starting in September called ‘Be Your Own Best Friend’ which will make sure you’ve got the skills to deal with these tricksters.
Imagine how great you will feel learning this at such a young age. By the time you are my age (that’s old!) you will be an absolute Pro! | <urn:uuid:811bc45b-ffb4-48aa-bb25-4c393ca2ca33> | CC-MAIN-2018-39 | https://smileyforlife.com/powerfulvoice/ | 2018-09-22T03:21:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-39/segments/1537267158011.18/warc/CC-MAIN-20180922024918-20180922045318-00237.warc.gz | en | 0.967948 | 1,386 |
Orlando Magic's Tobias Harris is inspired by his grandfather, a Tuskegee Airman
OAKLAND, Calif. — If Orlando Magic forward Tobias Harris ever needs inspiration, he never has to look outside his own family.
His 90-year-old grandfather, Lt. Col. John Mulzac, is a role model.
In 1942, when the armed forces were segregated, Mulzac joined the U.S. Army Air Corps. He became one of America’s first black military pilots, a group known as the Tuskegee Airmen.
“He always told us as kids that we could do anything in this world if we put our mind to it,” Harris said, a smile on his face. “He’s been definitely an inspiration to me, and I love him to death.”
Mulzac lives in Brooklyn, N.Y., with his wife of 67 years.
“The most important things that I do have is my wife, my grandchildren, my great grandchildren and all my family,” Mulzac told the British Broadcasting Corporation several years ago.
Mulzac doesn’t do many interviews anymore, but through one of his daughters — Tobias’ mom, Lisa Harris — he said he’s “proud” of his two grandsons in the NBA.
Harris and Phoenix Suns forward Channing Frye are just as proud of him.
Early in World War II, Mulzac and several other black servicemen were traveling from the north to Tuskegee, Ala., when they sat in the back of a crowded train car for a meal. When their food arrived, a conductor pulled a curtain that separated them from the white passengers.
Mulzac, who grew up in Brooklyn, wondered what was happening.
One of his friends told him they were being segregated from white people because they were south of the Mason-Dixon Line.
“I put my head down on the table and I cried,” Mulzac said when he spoke to the BBC.
But he still fought for his country.
He flew combat missions in Italy and North Africa during World War II. Later, he flew as a reservist in the Korean War and the Vietnam War.
He also worked in New York City’s fire department and as a sky marshal.
“He was just a hard-working man who wanted to see his children do better than he did,” Lisa Harris said.
Lisa is one of John’s and Beatrice’s eight children.
She is close with her sister Karen, who is Channing Frye’s mom.
Channing said his mom and his aunt — Tobias’ mother — have similar personalities.
“They come from a big family,” Channing said. “They’re tight-knit, and they are competitors, and I think it’s really been passed down to all of us.”
Tobias knew from an early age that he wanted to play professional basketball.
Channing, who is nine years older, set an example.
“As a kid, I used to watch all his college games at Arizona,” Tobias said. “I used to know all his stats. So I followed him. . . . It made me want to get in the NBA even more. He’s somebody I looked up to. I just always wanted to get to the NBA and be at that same level.”
“He’s very proud of me. He’s watched me ever since I was a kid. We always used to play in the city, so he got a chance to come to a lot of my games. He’s seen me grow from a little, fat, chubby kid to where I’m at now.” | <urn:uuid:db07e5f3-3f09-4901-922a-a4a9b2b649c8> | CC-MAIN-2014-49 | http://www.stripes.com/news/veterans/orlando-magic-s-tobias-harris-is-inspired-by-his-grandfather-a-tuskegee-airman-1.274165 | 2014-11-26T08:59:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-49/segments/1416931006637.79/warc/CC-MAIN-20141125155646-00179-ip-10-235-23-156.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.98552 | 811 |

A California appeals court has rejected a bid by Britney Spears' mother to have a defamation claim by the singer's former manager thrown out.
Lutfi sued Spears and her mother, Lynne Spears, for libel and defamation in February 2009. The case cited numerous passages from Lynne Spears' book, "Through the Storm," in which she accused Lutfi of drugging and controlling her daughter.
The allegations were also contained in court filings that led a judge to establish a conservatorship involving the Grammy-winning singer.
Lynne Spears' attorney, Michael Adler, declined comment.

West Virginia (1-2) at Virginia Tech (2-1), Thursday, 7:30 p.m. ET (ESPN)
Line: West Virginia by 1 1/2, according to FanDuel Sportsbook.
Series record: West Virginia leads 29-23-1.
WHAT’S AT STAKE?
The Mountaineers had a late loss against Pittsburgh and then an overtime loss at Kansas before beating up on FCS Towson last week. They'll be facing a Hokies team with a new coach in Brent Pry and a new quarterback in former Marshall signal-caller Grant Wells in an electric Lane Stadium environment.
West Virginia's offense against Virginia Tech's defense and crowd. Hokies fans turn Thursday night games into showcases for the program, but if West Virginia can get off to a fast start, it could curb their enthusiasm quickly. The Mountaineers' potent offense will face a defense allowing just 12.3 points per game, although two of their games came against Group of Five opponents. The Hokies are 13-5 at home on Thursday nights and 23-10 in all Thursday games.
PLAYERS TO WATCH
West Virginia: RB CJ Donaldson. The 240-pound freshman already has two 100-yard rushing games with six touchdowns along with a blocked punt. He is averaging 9.2 yards per rush, buoyed by an 82-yard run for a touchdown last week against Towson.
Virginia Tech: Wells. He was high with several early throws in his first start at Old Dominion, leading to two early interceptions, and figures to be pretty pumped up again to be facing the marquee program in his home state.
FACTS & FIGURES
The Mountaineers scored on all 10 of their possessions against Towson, with nine touchdowns. ... West Virginia’s defense has yet to make an interception this season. … West Virginia is 13th nationally in total offense, averaging 513 yards, but has allowed 14 touchdowns in three games. ... Virginia Tech ranks fifth nationally in total defense, allowing 201 yards per game. ... West Virginia won 27-21 last year in Morgantown, using a late goal-line stand to preserve the victory. ... The Hokies have been shut out five times in the series, but their current 349-game scoring streak overall is the fifth-longest in FBS history.

The American dealer franchise system might be on its last tank of fuel.
Since the advent of the mass production of cars, their sales have been filtered through a system of dealerships not affiliated with the carmakers. By acting as the middleman between the factory and the consumer, the dealer is free to negotiate and attempt to maximize profits. The downside for consumers, of course, is that uneducated people can be taken advantage of and charged more than necessary. The upside is that car buyers have local sales people and reliable service.
Tesla wants to change things up by selling directly to consumers in a retail model that could, and probably will, revolutionize how we buy cars.
There’s a complicated chain of events happening that could force states to amend their dealer franchise laws. Currently, not only are factory direct car sales frowned upon, they are illegal in most states. Funny how the lure of economic development can change things.
Earlier this year, Tesla announced plans for a $1.6 billion “gigafactory” to build batteries that will power future generations of electric automobiles. Four states were mentioned as candidates for the factory, including Texas and Arizona; states that have fiercely fought Tesla’s right to sell direct to consumers.
Interesting development, to be sure! Tesla is now leveraging the potential factory to negotiate for changes to the dealer laws, and it’s already working. Politicians know they won’t have a chance at landing the factory if their state doesn’t allow direct sales.
Not coincidently, Arizona lawmakers have introduced a bill to allow Tesla, and other electric carmakers, to bypass dealers and sell directly to consumers. Bill sponsor Warren Peterson said,
We wanted to send a message that Arizona is open for business.
What they’re really doing is sending a message that money is more important than the dealer laws and setting a precedent that other states will notice. With Texas lawmakers considering a similar bill, we might begin to see the fall of dealer franchise laws as we know them.
We probably won’t be buying Fords direct from Dearborn anytime soon, but if Tesla manages to get some laws changed, other automakers might begin to consider the possibilities.

The coalition behind Making Measurement Make Sense (3MS) launched a new offensive today in its bid to spread the word within the industry about viewability standards for digital advertising and to persuade the industry to embrace proposed standards.
The group—comprised of the Interactive Advertising Bureau, the Association of National Advertisers and the 4As—released a new 30-second video called “White Wall” that illustrates how ads that can’t be seen don’t make an impression.
The group also launched a contest inviting industry pros,
students and others to create and submit videos that explore the importance of viewability standards. The competition is seen as way of extending the 3MS campaign. Entries will be judged by a
cross-industry panel of CMOs, as well as agency and online publishing executives.
The winning spot will be announced at the IAB MIXX conference in September. More information on the contest can be found here.
“While the industry has recognized the need to shift away from served impressions … we are now faced with the challenge of raising awareness and encouraging adoption of the new viewable impression guidelines,” Duke Fanelli, EVP and CMO of the ANA.
The White Wall spot from FleishmanHillard depicts a young graffiti artist who spray paints a white wall, but the image he creates can’t be seen. The voiceover intones, “If you really want to make an impression, make sure your message can be seen. Learn how the new viewability standards benefit you.”
In March, the MRC lifted its advisory on viewability measurement for display ads, which it had imposed last year, citing inconsistencies in measurements across vendors. The MRC and IAB have proposed defining viewability as a combination of two measurements, including the percent of the ad in view (50% or more of standard ads on an active browser tab within the viewable space of the browser page) and the time that it was in view for (at least one second). The firms have also spelled out “special circumstances” for video and mobile, as well for other formats and situations.
The MRC is set to lift an advisory on viewability measurement for online video ad at the end of June. | <urn:uuid:294729ea-28d6-4bef-8818-47bcde4f2472> | CC-MAIN-2016-07 | http://www.mediapost.com/publications/article/227895/3ms-launches-new-viewability-campaign.html | 2016-02-08T19:26:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-07/segments/1454701153998.27/warc/CC-MAIN-20160205193913-00195-ip-10-236-182-209.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.948316 | 470 |

In this in-depth Getresponse testimonial, I have a look at a well-known email advertising solution and drill down right into its pros and cons. Is it right for your service?
You’re possibly here due to the fact that you’re questioning:
- What Is Getresponse?
- Does it have all the functions I require for my e-mail marketing?
- What’s the prices like?
- Just how does it compare with various other leading e-mail marketing solutions, like Aweber and Mailchimp?
- Can you really run a webinar with Getresponse?
- What’s the brand-new ‘Conversion Funnel’ attribute like?
- Is Getresponse user friendly?
- Should I use Getresponse for my service?
Read on to discover the response to all these questions, in addition to a summary of the essential advantages and disadvantages of Getresponse– by the end of this evaluation, you’ll have a much clearer suggestion concerning whether it’s right for you.
Let’s dive right in …
What Is Getresponse? Email Autoresponder Gsuite
Getresponse is an e-mail advertising app that allows you to:
- produce a newsletter and capture data onto it
- send e-mails to the customers on your subscriber list
- automate your emails to clients via use of ‘autoresponders’.
- view as well as analyse stats related to your email projects– open rate, click with, forwards etc
Over the last few years nonetheless, Getresponse has actually changed its emphasis substantially: the item currently intends be even more of an ‘all-in-one’ e-commerce as well as advertising service instead of simply an e-mail advertising and marketing device.
As necessary, in addition to email advertising, Getresponse now additionally provides e-commerce attributes, webinar organizing, landing pages and automated sales funnels.
Getresponse has actually been in business since 1998 as well as, according to the company, over 350,000 people as well as organizations now make use of the platform for their e-mail campaigns.
Whilst this userbase is not as huge as those for a few other email advertising and marketing devices (notably Mailchimp), it is large sufficient to provide confidence that the firm is well-established as well as is not most likely to go away any time soon.
There are four Getresponse plans:.
- Standard— beginning at $15 per month to send out an unlimited variety of emails to as much as 1,000 subscribers.
- Plus– starting at $49 per month for up to 1,000 subscribers.
- Specialist— beginning at $99 per month for as much as 1,000 customers.
- Max— negotiable.
As you include extra clients to your list, the boost. At the top end of the range, you can anticipate to pay $450, $499 or $580 monthly to use Getresponse with a checklist including 100,000 customers on the ‘Fundamental’, ‘Plus’ as well as ‘Specialist’ plans (respectively).
When it come to the “Max” plan, specific pricing relies on demands as well as listing dimension– if you have an interest in this strategy, you’ll require to get in touch with Getresponse to arrange a trial, review your needs and negotiate prices.
Significant price cuts are readily available if you pay in advance for 12 or 24 months of service (18% and also 30% specifically).
Along with the paid plans, a 30-day totally free test is additionally available, which you can access via this web link.
Trick differences in between plans.
All the Getresponse strategies cover the e-mail marketing fundamentals you might anticipate– core features include:
- the capability to import, grow and hold a customer checklist.
- an option of themes to make use of for your e-newsletters.
- autoresponder capability.
- receptive e-mail designs.
- split testing. Email Autoresponder Gsuite
- touchdown pages.
- comprehensive reporting.
- RSS/ blog site to-email functionality.
- extensive segmentation alternatives.
- social sharing tools. Email Autoresponder Gsuite
There are a number of differences between the ‘Standard’, ‘Plus” and also ‘Professional’ plans, but for me the essential ones are below:
- Automation builder— arguably Getresponse’s standout attribute, the automation building contractor (which allows you to develop complex autoresponder series based on individual practices) is readily available on the ‘And also’ strategy or greater (you can create 5 automations on the plus strategy; or an endless number on the other plans).
- Conversion funnels— you obtain access to more automatic sales funnels as you go up the pricing ladder.
- Webinars— this functionality is not offered in all on the ‘Fundamental’ strategy and the number of webinar guests is topped for the ‘And also’, ‘Specialist’ and ‘Venture’ prepares at 100, 300 as well as 500 specifically.
- Group administration— you can only have one user account on the ‘Basic’ strategy; by contrast you obtain 3 on ‘Plus’, 5 on ‘Professional’ and 10 on ‘Venture.
- Ecommerce – the deserted order recuperation function is just available on the ‘Plus’ plan or greater.
How does Getresponse pricing compare to that of its rivals?
As long as you enjoy to make use of among the entry-level ‘Basic’ strategies, the pay-per-month Getresponse strategies are on the entire cheaper than those provided by much of its essential rivals, specifically if you have a reasonably lot of e-mail addresses on your data source.
At the entry level database end of points, Getresponse’s rates is relatively affordable– you can host a database containing approximately 1,000 e-mail addresses for $15 a month with Getresponse, compared to $29 per month on Aweber and also Project Monitor. The prices for Mailchimp’s generally comparable ‘Criterion’ plan is $14.99 per month, but you do not get as numerous features for this.Email Autoresponder Gsuite
As you increase the rates ladder, Getresponse remains competitively priced.
If you have a call list having between 9,000 as well as 10,000 documents, hosting it on the ‘Fundamental’ Getresponse strategy sets you back $65 each month.
This works out to:
- $ 4 monthly less costly than Aweber.
- $ 24 per month more affordable than Project Display.
- $ 34 per month more affordable than Mailchimp (Criterion Plan).
Some other things to be aware of on the competitor pricing front:
- Some contending service providers– especially Mailchimp as well as Aweber– use free accounts for users with a handful of documents (however these do not provide the complete series of attributes that you hop on a paid plan).
- Some remedies (Mailchimp again being an archetype) bill you to host both subscribed and also unsubscribed contacts, which can come to be a considerable covert price. Getresponse just bills you for your energetic customers.
- If you are prepared to pay in advance for 1 or 2 years, you can avail of significant discounts with Getresponse that rivals don’t yet give.
So the bottom line is that Getresponse stacks up well against rivals in the rates department.
Yet what regarding functions?
Trick Getresponse attributes.
Comparative with other email advertising and marketing tools, Getresponse comes with an abnormally huge attribute set– even on its entry-level plan.
Not just does Getresponse offer all the essential stuff you ‘d get out of an email advertising platform– listing holding, design templates, autoresponders, analytics and more, yet as discussed over, it’s lately been expanding its feature readied to the factor where has actually changed right into an all-in-one advertising and ecommerce solution.
The concern is whether all this makes the product a jack of all professions and master of none.
Let’s pierce down into its key features to learn.
Autoresponders are e-newsletters that are sent to your subscribers at intervals of your picking.

Altogether, Getresponse represents among the much more affordable ways to host as well as interact with an e-mail database– it’s priced competitively in its industry. It’s likewise among the more intriguing items of its kind, in that it offers e-mail advertising, automation, touchdown web pages, e-commerce, sales funnels and webinars all under one roof covering.
It’s hard to think about any type of competing e-mail marketing solution that provides this ‘all round’ recommendation, and its cost-free trial size of thirty days is generous too.
I have actually been particularly excited by Getresponse webinar performance– it’s feature jam-packed, and exceptionally good value wherefore it is.
Some improvements to Getresponse do need to be made nonetheless.
Probably one of the most vital point Getresponse need to take a look at is presenting a GDPR certified cookie authorization mechanism for the touchdown web pages (and also the landing pages interface could do with an overhaul too– they could be a lot more user friendly).
I ‘d like to see more controls provided when it concerns data catch types introduced– you need to have the alternative to change them on or off on mobile.
And also finally, facilitating two-factor verification throughout login ought to be a top priority for the company.
I’ll sum up this Getresponse review with a rundown of the key pros and cons of using the product.

Pres. Ma. Oliva Z. Domingo, (Dr. Jose V. Abueva), VP Virginia Carino, Faculty, Parents, and Kalay Students, Good morning.
Before I start, can I just ask everyone to please give our awardees another round of applause. They deserve it.
Afraid, Overwhelmed, and Very Hungry. These words describe how I feel right now, standing in front of you guys. When Ma’am Cindy told me that I was given the privilege of talking today, I was terrified. At first I thought she was joking. I told her, “Ma’am, huwag, baka bumagyo.” Never in my life was I given the opportunity to talk in front of a large crowd, especially at an occasion like this – before lunchtime.
I actually considered giving up on this speech. But the thought of Ma’am Cindy being disappointed in me was more terrifying than talking to the crowd. I took it as a challenge, and here I am. But we’ve all experienced this, right – the feeling of wanting to give up? Like when you forgot to bring your English 2 book to Ma’am de Guzman’s class and you think to yourself “Ayoko na pumasok, cut nalang ako. Mag-sosorry nalang ako next meeting.” Or when you catch yourself bingewatching a TV series late at night and your classmate suddenly messages you on Facebook “Uy musta na paper mo? Haha” and you answer with “Paper? Huh? WTFFFFF. Ayoko na. Haha” Or when you promised yourself you will never eat fastfood again but then Jollibee suddenly comes up with a cheaper combination of a Burger Steak rice meal and spaghetti, only for 99 pesos? I’m pretty sure everyone here has experienced this. I know I have, especially the Jolibee part.
And this is what I want to talk about today. No, not Jolibee. I want to talk to you guys about wanting to give up. But first let me clarify: I am in front of you guys right now not as someone who is wiser, and definitely not as a role model. Rather, I am starting this dialogue with everyone here as a friend, a classmate, a fellow Kalayaan student.
And, as a fellow Kalayaan student, the feeling of wanting to give is something most of us have experienced in school, and in life. I personally went through a lot of this. And in truth it got so bad that at one point I actually gave up on myself and thought that I did not have any chance in life.
To better explain this, let me share a little bit of my past. Back when I was still studying in my previous school, I would cut classes, and then lie to my teachers, just so they would not drop me out of the class. I am far from a model student.
My “honourable” dismissal was inevitable, and I was expecting it. I allowed it to happen. And as it happened, I never even thought about going to school again. Unsurprisingly, If it wasn’t for my mother I would not even try to find a new school.
In August 11, 2015, I went to this school at 9am to enrol, but I was informed that I was past the enrolment period. I had to choose: do I go home and face my mother’s wrath, or do I look for another school? I did the only sensible thing a composed, mature or perhaps, desperate person would do. I held both of my hands together, slightly slouched, and begged the Registrar to accept me. “Please”. To my surprise, they chuckled. They asked me “Ba’t kasi ngayon mo lang naisip mag-enrol?” My response was “Kasi ngayon lang po ako nahimasmasan na kailangan ko palang mag-aral.” My response seemed to be magical. Before I knew it I was attending classes on that same day. Ironically, the school I entered when I had given up on myself was the one that accepted me with open arms – problems and all.
To me, like a lot of people, Kalayaan was a chance to redeem myself. It was supposed to be my safe landing spot. I was supposed to go back to my old school, or any school that had “the brand”.
I thought that I would never have to study for a day in my life while I was in this school. But boy was I wrong. There were times when I was thinking “Mas madali pa yung dati kong course kaysa dito”. My friends and I would spend sleepless nights trying to finish papers, pushing each other while throwing in jokes like “Sana walang class para mamove yung deadline HAHA”. This was about the time I realized that something in me changed. I was actually trying – not only trying, but I was doing my best.
I was actually striving, and I was making the effort to push myself. It was something new to me, and at the same time something fascinating. I was starting to be motivated, challenging myself every chance I get.
The more I challenged myself, the more I became prone to failures. I still am afraid of failing. But what is important now is that I never thought about giving up on myself ever again. I will make mistakes but that does not mean I failed. I committed mistakes but now I have learned to conquer them by learning from them. The thought of self-pity disgusted me. Why should I put myself down after feeling such joy and accomplishment?
This is where I realized that Kalayaan was not my second chance. There was no second chance; there were no repeats for me. I could not rewrite my wrongdoings. There was only the chance to become better. This is not to say that I am a good student. I still cut classes sometimes, I still don’t pass papers on time sometimes, and I still fall asleep in class, occasionally. But change is a process, and it never ends. It only ends when we decide to give up on ourselves.
I want each and every single one of you here to know that everyone has the capability to become better. Some of us just choose not to. Even worse, some of us choose to leave it to fate instead acting on it ourselves. I know I did. Please, challenge yourselves; recognize the feeling of wanting to give up. If anything, acknowledge it, but never give in to it. Learn from it. My greatest takeaway from my experiences is that it does not matter how you fall down. What matters is how you pick yourself up. How, not If. Trying is just the beginning. Actually giving your best effort is where the real journey starts.
So, my fellow problem students, before I finish I will not be leaving you with a question, nor will I give you a challenge. Instead, I offer you this idea: the next time you feel like garbage, or when you feel like you are not good enough, just remember that someone begged to be in this school. That someone failed in life simply because they gave up on themselves. That that person created lies just to cover up their laziness. He disappointed everyone he loved. If he could pick himself back up and become better, so can you. You, who are more talented, more intelligent, more of a person that he will ever be, and possibly even more qualified to be giving this speech. So don’t just believe in yourself. Believe in what you can do, and learn from what you fail to do. | <urn:uuid:900dbf0b-3fce-4629-bf31-a3d4841c5580> | CC-MAIN-2018-13 | http://kalayaan.edu.ph/2017/02/14/2017-recognition-program-students-response-by-marion-lomboy/ | 2018-03-18T03:57:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-13/segments/1521257645513.14/warc/CC-MAIN-20180318032649-20180318052649-00489.warc.gz | en | 0.983285 | 1,643 |
We hatched eggs last year. They were unsexed. We ended up with 19 roosters plus Monsieur … the original roo. We gave away 15. Kept four. It was all going so well, Monsieur ruled the roost. The ladies were fine. Winter came and went and the little roos are now adults. They are attacking each other, attacking Monsieur, and worst of all attacking, wounding, maiming and even killing our ladies. It’s time for action. We must kill them or give them away. This is hard as, despite the havoc they are wreaking, we love them. They are all very different and very interesting. But they must go. The slaughterhouse is full up for months, COVID_19 lockdowns going strong, so we must do this ourselves. Luckily we have YouTube and experienced friends. What we don’t have are the proper tools and equipment. We will improvise.
This leads us to the next issue, chick season is upon us. We thought of ordering some breeds we don’t have. With Covid-9 we dont really want to ship chicks (plus its not so good for the babies). We could get eggs… but we think we will hatch our own, again. This means we have to do it now as the ladies with less roos may not be fertile.
Hatching chicks is quite a bit of work. Killing roos does not thrill me. Especially since I am attached. Do both we will. And we may just get a delicious coq au vin in the process!
The world has changed so much since I last wrote. I will try to keep a record. Here in Maine I feel blessed, and, of course, afraid of what is too come. We are so lucky to have land to walk on, food, cats to snuggle with and lots of chickens and pretty eggs.
Winter is on the way. We expect snow later today. Yesterday I harvested the purple brussel sprouts, the last of the salad, and the final carrots.
I learned that certain plants can take a bunch of frosts and will definitely plant more of them next year. Things like carrots, parsnips, beets, peas (to a certain degree), rutabagas, kale, spinach, salad and cilantro have lasted well despite the cold and some with the help of row covers.
As of yesterday we are left with kale, spinach, parsley, some last salad greens under row cover, and some parsnips I am overwintering.
It has been a great season. At Veggies to Table, our non-profit, we have given away over 4200 pounds of fresh organic produce to our neighbors in need. Exciting times in Maine!
We knew it was coming and we busily harvested all that we could in the days leading up to it. We were able to get all of the squash, onions, tomatoes, and most of the carrots along with tomatillos, peppers and basil. We also picked, what seemed like tons of beans and flowers. There were zinnias, marigolds, dahlias and sunflowers.
Luckily we did this as last night the frost came and wiped out everything that was not frost hardy. Thankfully there is still a lot of lettuce, kale, spinach, radishes, leeks, brussel sprouts, arugula, parsnips, and some carrots growing in the garden.
The tomatoes have been ripening in the house (there are many), the dahlias have continued to bloom despite blackened leaves, there are still a few sunflowers, and the garden persists … for a while. Next year I will know to protect more crops from the first frost as now we have at least two weeks between that first frost and the next one!
It’s a mad dash to the finish line. We are harvesting like crazy as the nights are cool and frost is not far. There are still many tomatoes, peppers, salad, squash, radishes, spinach, kale, corn, tomatillos, and some more carrots, cucumber and zucchini. We also have a ton of zinnias, dahlias, sunflowers, and herbs. We continue to donate to community members in need through our non-profit Veggies to Table and are excited about the many collaborations and friendships we have formed along the way. Stay tuned for more on this once the harvest is finished. | <urn:uuid:c14e865e-9160-4fea-8555-a269230ac167> | CC-MAIN-2020-50 | https://paristomaine.com/page/2/ | 2020-11-24T20:35:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-50/segments/1606141177566.10/warc/CC-MAIN-20201124195123-20201124225123-00295.warc.gz | en | 0.972367 | 934 |

In an era of theory that is marked by a distinct motion away from the Classics as being somehow innately authoritative, a stress on the distance and difference between Greco-Roman discourses and our own contemporary discourses would normally provide the starting point for comparative investigations of classical antiquity. Even if we might agree that in antiquity there were many forms of political and social activity that are analogous to those of the modern era--even rhetoric defined broadly as a social and political phenomenon--, it may now seem counter-intuitive or at least unorthodox to suppose that there are "transhistorical" categories of social and political activity at all. Yet, this is precisely the provocative claim made by Nancy Shumate in her study of Juvenal, Horace and Tacitus: that the rhetorics of empire, and nation, which functioned to provide for Rome the essential building blocks in the development of its self-conception, have a transhistorical character. These rhetorical continuities are not merely tantamount to modern discourses of nationalism and imperialism; rather, they are different manifestations of the same thing, images created from the same "template."1
This is a serious question of urgent significance to the field of Classics. For if Roman rhetoric provided the "templates" for nationalistic and imperial rhetorics of the modern period, the interpretive categories of imperialism and nationalism, and hence even post-colonialism, as they are commonly understood, would have to be revised, and rewritten to include the Roman period. This is Shumate's stated purpose: she aims to challenge the orthodoxy of historical categories, and write imperial Rome into them.2 I find myself in the paradoxical position of having enjoyed this book's admirable readings and the critical methodologies it brings to these three Roman authors, while at the same time harboring reservations about the validity of its theoretical apparatus and argumentation.
In the first chapter, Shumate explores Juvenal Sat. 1-3 and 6, arguing that national anxieties about ethnicity, gender, and sexuality "drive nationalistic discourses" in the poetry (19). Here, however, Shumate consciously eschews the recent approach of such scholars as Ando, MacMullen, and Woolf, who see it as their obligation to emphasize the "signs of resistance on the part of those who bore the burden of that negative representation."3 Instead, she focuses on the city, its elite, and the production of national ideology. In Satires 1 and 3 she interprets the voice of the poem's speaker as the "reactionary rhetoric" of a Roman beset by a new influx of foreigners into his city (Jews, Syrians, and the other "sewage" brought in by the flow of the Orontes: see Sat. 3.61-6). The speaker perceives in these intruders a threat to his sense of place in the social hierarchy. In the second satire, Juvenal's speaker attacks Rome's "male gender and sex deviants," and in satire 6, the poem's narrator famously launches into an all out attack on the female sex. These satires provide Shumate with a richly illustrative context for the analysis of the charged gender dynamics of Juvenalian ideology.
Shumate calls attention to several features of othering that are worth mentioning here. She traces in these satires the persistent application of metaphors of vice, criminality, and disease to racial and ethnic groups, arguing that these texts depend on a putative imperial reader who can imagine the viciousness of a given race, its criminality, and its association with disease as being essential to that race. For Shumate these metaphors are tropes and structures that are "recycled" in modern projects of constructing national enemies (46-7). This theoretical move allows her to pursue what I see as the most interesting contribution of the book, namely, a comparison of the "proto-nationalism" of Juvenal and the contemporary modern nationalistic discourses of 19th and early 20th century England, the Weimar Republic, and Germany under National Socialism. In a particularly stimulating analysis, she compares the pastoral fantasies of Umbricius in Sat. 3 with the pastoral fantasies of the Weimar dystopian novel Deutschland ohne Deutschen by H. Heyck (1929), as well as the Nazi films Hans Westmar (1933), Hitler Youth Quex (1933), and Jew Suess (1945).
Chapter 2 will be familiar to admirers of Shumate's essay on Horace's "Roman odes" from Helios 2005; she expands on her ideas of that important article in a fuller exploration of Carm. 3.2, 3.5, and 3.6. In Horace Shumate pursues a different series of questions from those she asked of Juvenal--Horace is the "voice of the Augustan establishment laying out a program of national renewal" (55). These poems are characterized by the idealization of a national past, and the "implication of issues of gender and sexuality in that process--a central element of the 'backbone' of modern nationalistic discourse" (ibid.). Shumate then draws parallels to the crisis posed by modernity to the sexual mores of 19th and 20th century Europe. Pace Mosse, Shumate argues that in the nationalistic discourses of Germany and England, "the threat to masculinity was modernity itself" (G. Mosse, Nationalism and Sexuality: Middle Class Morality and Sexual Norms in Modern Europe [Ithaca, 1985]). Consequently, literary, political, and scientific texts "enshrined clear gender definition as a pre-condition to a flourishing national culture" (64).
In Chapter 3, Shumate analyzes the Germania of Tacitus, arguing it is an earlier instantiation of the Rosseauian "noble savage" topos, studied so famously by A. Lovejoy and G. Boas in Primitivism and Related Ideas in Antiquity (Baltimore, 1935). This chapter, much in the style of Hartog's work on Herodotus, interprets the presentation of the German 'other' as a mirror of Roman imperial society (F. Hartog, The Mirror of Herodotus: The Representation of the Other in the Writing of History [trans. J. Lloyd, Berkeley, 1988]). Consequently this mirror reflects both the virtues and vices of Roman society as it imagines itself, both its "self-righteousness" and "self-disgust." In both cases, the German barbarian serves to reaffirm a tenuous set of shaky norms that are perceived to be under threat. Here Shumate's comparanda derive largely from British texts of the High Empire: Darwin, Kipling, and the early field reports of Winston Churchill, written in 1895 and describing the British campaign against hostile Northern Indian "tribes" for The London Telegraph.
In the fourth and final chapter, Shumate returns to the fifteenth satire of Juvenal, an unjustly neglected text in which Shumate's reading is likely to renew interest. This satire recounts the story of two Egyptian youths who "descend into a spontaneous orgy of cannibalism" (131). In a most enjoyable style, Shumate unpacks this alluring if unsavory story as analogous to later British otherings of its abject colonial subjects, arguing that Juvenal's representations of the Egyptians are of the "sort that would have been at home in the imperialist literature of Victorian England" (ibid.).4 She concludes in a brief epilogue with a gesture of comparison between Roman imperialism and the 21st century imperialism of the United States, focusing on the othering of Iraq in the media and politics. This made for provocative reading and I was sorry it had not been expanded into a full chapter, perhaps even the first chapter.
My primary objection is not to the usefulness of these readings, but to the assumption that what lies underlies them is cultural "continuity." If Shumate aims to show that certain continuities of rhetoric are a universal tendency, how could it be that they had a genesis in any historical period, and especially the Roman, so well known for its rhetorical interrelations to the Greek age of the Sophists? Shumate is hardly unaware of the controversial nature of this transhistorical claim; indeed, on page 12 she acknowledges that the reader might suspect some anachronism in the use of nationalism, imperialism, and colonialism as interpretive categories.5
Shumate lays the theoretical groundwork to sustain such an admittedly heterodox argument in her introduction. She makes no claim to original scholarship on colonial or nationalist discourses per se, but rather notes that she relies "primarily on some of the more important and/or synoptic studies of the many produced in these fields in recent years" (14-15). For the theory that "the nation is a transhistorical phenomenon, recurring in many periods and contexts, irrespective of economic, political, and cultural conditions," she cites as primary architects J. Armstrong (Nations before Nationalism [Chapel Hill, 1982]) and especially A. Smith (The Nation in History: Historiographical Debates about Ethnicity and Nationalism [Hanover, 2000], 34-50).
This school of political theorists, known as the "perennialists" or "primordialists," provides the backbone of Shumate's hermeneutic framework. She does the heavy theoretical lifting on page 14-15, where she claims that "according to the 'perennialists,' particular nations, national identities, and even nationalisms may come and go, but the phenomenon is universal." Shumate adapts this interpretive schema to her own search for continuities of rhetoric, and in so doing allows for the use of contemporary sociology and its methodologies. But I am not sure why incorporating the perennialist theory into her reading was necessary--why cannot similarities across eras be instructive and worth studying in their own right, without having to imply that the comparands possess any transhistorical unity? I think that ultimately "continuity" may be a confusing term to use as the dominant interpretive metaphor in an investigation of historical categories, since it can signify both an unbroken tradition (e.g. a "continuous" narrative), as well as resemblances that recur in spite of other differences; we could hypothetically describe "continuities" between objects, concepts and arguments that are manifestly not stamped from the same template.
At the end of the day, I doubt that we can find a template for modern nationalism in Roman "proto-nationalism." Some symbolic continuity with imperial self-representations could possibly be detected. More or less everyone borrowed something from the Romans, including the Russians under Peter the Great. But this was more by way of claiming glory and asserting one's pretension as the heirs of Rome. As for nationalism, the case would have to be even weaker.
I would make a strong case for the modernity of nationalism. Imperialism is older, different, more ambiguous, and was possibly more inspired by the Roman example. Nevertheless, in many instances the legacy of Roman republicanism must have been of greater importance than Roman imperialism. For example, the Florentines and others were interested not so much in Rome's emperors or dictators, as they were interested in republican Rome as a way of justifying their struggle for city independence from the Holy Roman Empire and the Papacy.6 Republican discourse was influential in reviving the idea of patriotism, understood as the attachment to one's city-state or place of birth. But nationalism--the idea that the state should be founded on popular sovereignty--was different, if always clearly related to Northern European readings of the Florentines.7 Nationalism is much more modern and more related to the rise of civic consciousness and the struggle for parliamentary representation. Be that as it may, if the Florentines chose to emulate republican Rome--how could we deny the ability of Rome's successors to construct their own identities from whatever parts of Rome and Roman discourse they perceived as serving their aims?
One could argue, then, that a defect of this book is an over-reliance on the perennialist school for its sociological and theoretical underpinnings, a school which is hardly as well-established or respected as Shumate would lead us to believe.8 Nonetheless, this is a provocative, serious, well-written and well-executed monograph, that rewards the reader with persuasive and original readings of Horace, Juvenal, and Tacitus. Most importantly, Shumate challenges her readers to revise their suppositions about the relevance of Classics--and may transform their ability to do so--by providing a rich bibliography and consideration of contemporary critical work on nationalism, imperialism, and othering.9
1. Cf. page 7: "In fact the templates for these 'modern' discourses [sc. nationalism and imperialism] were forged in their essentials by the early Roman imperial period... what can be discerned are...interlocking sets of general rhetorical principles which are remarkably persistent from antiquity to our era in spite of radical differences." See further pages 13, 40, and 82-3.
2. Passim, but especially the introduction, page 7 and pages 15-16: "This book's contribution is in writing Rome into these studies [sc. of nationalism, imperialism and post-colonialism] in a way that lengthens their perspective and invites reformulation of some of their basic assumptions;" similarly on page 65: "In dating this development [of nationalist ideology] to the 19th century, [Mosse] betrays the historian of modern Europe's typical blind spot to ancient precedent."
3. C. Ando, Imperial Ideology and Provincial Loyalty in the Roman Empire (Berkeley, 2000); G. Woolf, Becoming Roman: The Origins of Provincial Civilization in Gaul (Cambridge, 1998); R. MacMullen, Romanization in the Time of Augustus (New Haven, 2000). See Shumate pages 14-15. For Shumate this is a political question: "In a sense Roman social historians participate in this revision when they interpret Romanization as creative cultural exchange (for example, Woolf 1998, MacMullen 2000)... or analyze... how provincials actively consented in their own subordination (Ando 2000)." She argues such studies "have a depoliticizing effect that lets classical antiquity off the hook for some of its more pernicious inventions," and that they can be read as a "subtle apology for the Empire." This point (as Shumate acknowledges) was famously made by C. Martindale (Redeeming the Text: Latin Poetry and the Hermeneutics of Reception [Cambridge, 1993]) in his analysis of Parry's "Two Voices" of Vergil's Aeneid," (A. Parry, Arion 2 , 33-80).
4. It should be noted, however, that this conversation is addressed not to a citizen of the city proper, but to a Roman provincial (15.1-2 Quis nescit, Volusi Bithynice, qualia demens/ Aegyptos portenta colat?). This might suggest a more dynamic model, even within Juvenal's narrative, for the production of ideology: it seems that provincials carry out a process of identity construction and othering similar to that of the urban elite.
5. "No one would argue that the ancient and modern worlds are not radically different places and that in studying antiquity we should not be cautious about assimilating the former to the latter, always conscientious of the anachronism that can result from casting ancient cultures in familiar terms and not taking them from our own. But this caution should not blind us to the common threads where they do exist."
6. On the significance of Roman republicanism to the political thought of Renaissance Florence, see H. Th. van Veen, "Republicanism in the Visual Propaganda of Cosimo I de' Medici," Journal of the Warburg and Courtauld Institutes 55 (1992), 200-209; especially useful is the edited volume Machiavelli and Republicanism, ed. by G. Bock, Q. Skinner, and M. Viroli (Cambridge, 1993).
7. For the centrality of Republicanism to modern European political discourse, Republicanism: a Shared European Heritage (edited by M. van Gelderen and Q. Skinner [Cambridge, 2002]) provides many articles meriting study; particularly incisive are "Empire and Liberty: a Republican Dilemma," by David Armitage, pages 29-45, and D. Winch "Commercial Realities, Republican Principles," 293-309.
8. For Shumate's representation of the perennialist school as a non-contested authority, see the introduction passim but especially page 7: "Anthony Smith, the prominent scholar of modern nationalism," etc. Against the idea that perennialists such as Smith and Armstrong constitute a well established consensus, see C. Kidd's discussion in British Identities before Nationalism: Ethnicity and Nationhood in the Atlantic World, 1600-1800 (Cambridge U. Press, 1999), 3-4: "The various broad churches of modernism are opposed by the primordialists, led by Anthony Smith, who believe that the modernist approach has led to a neglect of important continuities in the long-term evolution of national consciousness... Smith denies the contention that nations are 'invented', but his primordialism is qualified by the concession that modern nationhood, which draws on deep ethnic roots, is nevertheless not a direct continuation of older forms of identity, but is rather 'reconstructed' out of pre-existing materials. ...Quite apart from this debate over the historic provenance of nationalisms, there is the related issue of whether they correspond to underlying and enduring national 'essences.' Those scholars who advance essentialist interpretations of nationhood are, in academic terms, if not by the cruder criteria which reign in the public domain, an uninfluential minority." For a different interpretation of the domain and purpose of imperial history, see the work now on "New Empire studies," as in A New Imperial History: Culture, Identity and Modernity in Britain and the Empire, 1660-1840 (ed. K. Wilson [Cambridge, 2004]). Wilson imagines what a fully integrated imperial history of Britain might look like, and aims to deliberately overthrow the "old" imperial history by casting light on how empire defined Britain, rather than continuing to focus on how the British imposed their will on subjected people and places. Cf. also Wilson's "Old Imperialisms and New Imperial Histories: Rethinking the History of the Present," Radical History Review (2006), 211-34, and now also J. Connolly, The State of Speech: Rhetoric and Political Thought in Ancient Rome (Princeton, 2007).

Studio City, CA
To most people, the idea of starting something over from scratch might seem like a daunting task. But when that something is a rock band – a successful one with a gold record and a loyal following – the idea of starting over from scratch might seem downright unthinkable. To former Coal Chamber guitarist Miguel “Meegs” Rascon, starting over from scratch was not an option – it had to be done.
After the band’s Dark Days tour in 2003, Rascon knew that the time had come to start over. "Towards the end of Coal Chamber it was such a struggle to get along with everyone," said Rascon, recalling the turmoil. “I knew that I still had a lot of music left in me though. But this time around I wanted to make music with friends, people who are not only great musicians, but people who I trust and respect.”
Enter guitarist Matt Vanderlip, who Rascon had been friends with for many years. “Matt was not only a great guitarist, but a great person. He was someone that I knew right away that I wanted to work with. His guitar style perfectly suited what I wanted to do.” With Vanderlip in the fold, Rascon began writing and recording songs at his home studio in North Hollywood, California. “We wanted to create a sound that no one else had,” says Rascon. “I also wanted it to be sonically bigger and more melodic than what I’d previously done.”
The deviation from traditional metal led to Rascon experimenting with drop tunings even darker than those he used with Coal Chamber. “As much as I wanted to make something epic, it was really important to me that the songs were completely organic so that the melodies came naturally.”
While writing and recording, Rascon and Vanderlip searched incessantly for like-minded individuals to complete the band. After shuffling though several lineups, and playing with “what seemed like hundreds of musicians,” Rascon and Vanderlip eventually decided on drummer Nicco Villalobos. With a drummer in the equation, the band conducted a nationwide search for a vocalist – a search that yielded a demo from Atlanta-based singer Ted Dorward. “Once we heard him sing, we knew he was the guy we wanted,” Rascon explained. “We gave him a track without any vocals and what he recorded over it was incredible. It was 180 degrees from what everyone else did. We loved it.” Dorward was offered the position and within a week, he packed his bags for North Hollywood. The subsequent additions of bassist Ivan Dominguez and guitarist Scott Kohler were the final cogs, and with that, the band Glass Piñata was finally complete.
The band’s moniker draws its roots from Rascon’s personal experience as a musician. “The name Glass Piñata represents the fragility of the music industry,” explained Rascon. “Musicians can be delicate and sensitive, and sometimes easily broken...not unlike glass. When they’re thrown into a fickle industry that doesn’t mind beating every ounce of creative energy out of them in order to survive, it’s apparent who the piñata is.”
The final product of Glass Piñata is a sound that’s sure to please die-hard Coal Chamber fans as well as traditional rock fans and listeners new to the genre. Songs such as “Converge” and “Synchronize Within” illustrate the band’s penchant for combining vengeful guitar riffs with Dorward’s prodigious yet introspective vocals. The opening bassline of “Centerfold Life” quickly materializes into a harrowing dervish of Dorward’s vocal power alternating with Rascon’s ghoulish screams. And despite all the drop-tuned aggression, it’s Glass Piñata’s ability to methodically construct a thunderous sound along side a haunting melody that carries their attack. Vanderlip’s arresting arpeggios on “Plastic Figurines” resonate over a captivating chorus and Villalobos’ intricate drumming. “Forgotten” and “The Test” disarm the listener with deliberate guitar riffs and cyclopean drums before raging into a sonic fury, while the formidable “Climb Away” features a blistering chorus that bleeds into cacophonic instability.
Overall, the Glass Piñata arsenal is sure to win fans over with their heavyweight dichotomy of drop-tuned riffage and ethereal melodies. “I love this music so much,” says Rascon. “I had a great run with Coal Chamber and I’ll always treasure that part of my life. But to me, this is music that’s challenging and still brutally honest. There’s no more make-up, there’s no posturing. It’s not about the image or the clothes. It’s just about making music with a great group of guys and enjoying it.”
And for Rascon, that’s all he ever wanted to do. - Mike Chanpong, | <urn:uuid:8ebc39cd-cf03-495b-9da9-69744f1a9cf0> | CC-MAIN-2021-39 | http://li701-60.members.linode.com:8080/profile/glasspinata | 2021-09-17T10:15:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-39/segments/1631780055632.65/warc/CC-MAIN-20210917090202-20210917120202-00642.warc.gz | en | 0.972131 | 1,112 |

Preity Zinta loves Salman Khan as a friend, calling him her closest buddy. Even if the world turns upside down, she is sure Salman will never leave her side. He has always stood by her through thick and thin. She calls Salman a straightforward guy with a very big heart.
Preity’s latest film, Ishkq In Paris will see Salman Khan shake a leg with the actress. Salman’s ‘Main Aur Mrs Khanna’ saw Priety make a guest appearance in a song. However, she says, just because she did it, Salman did not agree to be a part of her directorial debut. IN no way did he return a favor.
“There is no hard and fast rule that just because I did a song in his film he does for me. Out of all the actors, he has been closet and most supportive friend in whatever I have done. Not just for this song but for music as well,” said Preity.
“For me, my first film as a producer has been an uphill task because you have to work hard in whatever you do. But he being there has made a huge difference to me,” she added.
The song which will see Sallu gyrate to is titled “Kudiye Di Kurti”, composed by duo Sajid-Wajid. It is a part of a wedding sequence.
Salman and Preity’s friendship is very old and hey share a super strong bond.
Talking about their friendship, Preity said: “Our relation goes back ten years and he has always been supportive. He is, has been, a friend, who has always been there irrespective of what the media or people say, he has a big heart. He is honest straight forward guy. For me he is so awesome.”
“Ishkq In Paris” is directed by Prem Raj, also features Arjun Rampal, French actress Isabelle Adjani and Gaurav Chanana. | <urn:uuid:6c430628-544e-44cb-922a-21f6ac175f6a> | CC-MAIN-2015-14 | http://bollywood.celebden.com/2012/09/08/salman-khan-is-my-closest-friend-says-preity-zinta/ | 2015-03-31T22:11:05Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-14/segments/1427131302318.44/warc/CC-MAIN-20150323172142-00286-ip-10-168-14-71.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.985663 | 424 |

Now that the Batman's out of the bag (and Wonder Woman, too) with Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, it's time for Warner Bros. to start rounding up the rest of the Justice League for their upcoming ensemble movie. While we already know who will be playing Aquaman and The Flash, one question that remains is who will be playing Green Lantern.
If it were up to Tyrese Gibson, that person would be none other than Tyrese Gibson. The actor has said before that he is "on a mission" to take up the mantle of Green Lantern. Now that Ryan Reynolds has defected to the X-Men movie universe with Deadpool and indicated that he has very little interest in once again putting a ring on it with DC, Gibson's chances are better than ever. But is he really in contention?
According to Gibson, the answer is yes. In the interview below with Larry King (via comicbook.com), Gibson says that he has met with Warner Bros. about the role, and while he hasn't heard back yet, he's still holding out hope. He also explained how the whole campaign began with someone posting fan art of him as Green Lantern on the Internet, and how his reaction might have actually hurt his chances for the role:
"I was like, 'Woah, that looks cool.' And I posted it on my Instagram, and it just went crazy — over 1,500 sites. And it was just all of this buzz, and I was like I might as well run with this thing. And I did. Pissed the people off, a little bit, at Warner Bros. because they thought that I had convinced the world that I had landed the role, which I didn't. And I said, 'If you go down my timeline, at no point did I say the role is mine.' But, you know, there have been other artists, actors and actresses who have put up images of them as a comic book character and ended up landing a role. So I was like, it's worth giving it a shot."
King then asked if Gibson had heard back from Justice League director Zack Snyder, and Gibson replied that he hadn't, but "I did meet with Warner Bros., though" and that "I got the muscles for it. I can do 1,500 push-ups right now." So if the number of push-ups he can do is a good indicator of whether or not he is going to get the role, then Gibson does indeed have a solid shot.
Gibson has proven that he can handle action movies with his role in the Fast and Furious franchise, and being a known quantity is always a big plus for getting cast in a big budget movie like Justice League. Whether or not he has the screen presence to portray one of DC's biggest superheroes is up for debate, but if he doesn't get the role it certainly won't be for lack of trying.
Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice is now playing in U.S. theaters. Suicide Squad will arrive on August 5, 2016, followed by Wonder Woman on June 23, 2017; Justice League Part One on November 17, 2017; The Flash on March 16, 2018; Aquaman on July 27, 2018; Shazam on April 5, 2019; Justice League Part Two on June 14, 2019; Cyborg on April 3, 2020; and Green Lantern Corps. on June 19, 2020. | <urn:uuid:e44e087e-9b10-475a-b46c-c6213119d122> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://screenrant.com/green-lantern-corps-tyrese-gibson/ | 2019-06-17T13:24:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627998475.92/warc/CC-MAIN-20190617123027-20190617145027-00074.warc.gz | en | 0.984073 | 701 |
Nicole Richie shared a laugh with friends on the beach in Malibu yesterday. Nicole was joined by husband Joel Madden, his brother Benji, pal Samantha Ronson, West Coast Vogue editor Lisa Love, and others in celebrating Fourth of July in the sand. She sported long blond braids for the event, which included checking out a fireworks show over the water. Nicole and Joel weren't the only stars who spent the holiday in the oceanside town since Reese Witherspoon, Ashley Tisdale, and Zac Efron also enjoyed Independence Day weekend in Malibu. Soon Nicole will be back to work, though, since she has House of Harlow's Fall collection, which now includes a handbag line, to promote before the pieces are available in stores later this month.

Football Drill Demonstration
Set up as shown with 2 cones (the disatance of which between can be modified depending on ability or challenge you want to set your players).
1 player on each cone and 1 player in the middle, 1 ball between the 3.
Players always take 2 touches, the ball is moved from one end, into the middle man and then to the other end before the sequence is repeated from the other side.
Ideally get your players taking the two touches with both feet, controlling with one foot and passing with the other.
Demand firm accurate passes to help improve the players first touches.
The player in the middle should look to move and find a new space to receive after every pass they make.
Ideally get the player in the middle to receive body open. If not then get them to open their body with the first touch that they take. | <urn:uuid:ad6f8113-3954-4543-96e0-aedfa08e1a6d> | CC-MAIN-2020-05 | https://www.sportplan.net/drills/Football/Passing-and-Receiving/2-touch-3s-Passing-MF0032.jsp | 2020-01-20T12:18:19Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-05/segments/1579250598726.39/warc/CC-MAIN-20200120110422-20200120134422-00299.warc.gz | en | 0.969329 | 180 |

Whatever fulfillment model your business begins with or migrates to is mainly responsible for its success or failure.
Read on to know about the different types of fulfillment models and which one is the most suitable for your business.
Types of eCommerce Fulfillment Models
There are three models of fulfillment. Deciding what kind of fulfillment model is best for your business depends on certain factors:
(a) the type of products you sell
(b) the order volume
(c) management of the inventory (either self-management or outsourcing to a third-party).
Let’s understand each of the three models in detail.
In-House Order Fulfillment
Also known as the self-fulfillment model, it happens when a seller fulfills the entire process by himself, without the involvement of a dropshipper or a third-party. This model is exercised by sellers who have small businesses and low order volumes.
There are a plethora of social sellers on Facebook and Instagram who pack orders from their homes and courier the shipments. It is a time-consuming model, hence, adopted by the sellers having less number of orders. However, when the orders increase and sellers witness business growth, they switch to a different model.
- Low cost
- Full administration
- Doable by everyone
- Increasingly complex
- Space allocation for inventory
- Requires Order Fulfillment Software
Sellers migrate to a third-party fulfillment model when the process becomes too complex to handle on their own. From the packaging of bulk orders to shipping them one by one, it is impossible to manage the process single-handedly, sans compromising the expected time of delivery and tarnishing the high hopes of your end-customers.
Outsourcing a major chunk of the fulfillment process to a 3PL service provider enables you to manage and dedicate time for core business operations seamlessly. A 3PL provider manages everything, mainly, the inventory and eliminates your woes for the same.
Considering 3PL service providers work with multiple fulfillment centers, they inhabit great logistical prowess that assures the continual growth of your business.

- Streamlined process
- Multiple Courier Partners
- Discounted Shipping Rates
- Dedicated Fulfillment Centre for Bulk Inventory
- External dependency
- Poor service of 3PL provider can make or break your business reputation
In this model, sellers neither manufacture nor store the products they sell on their store. The products are, instead, directly shipped by the manufacturer. When an individual places an order online, the order is either automatically or manually forwarded by the seller to the manufacturer. The manufacturer then ships the order directly to the respective end-customer.
Under dropshipping, the entire fulfillment process is handled by the manufacturer, signifying that the seller has no control over the operations. Hence, the satisfaction of the customers is directly reliant on the dropshipper.
- An easy-to-start online business
- Global accessibility
- A singular focus on product sales
- Diverse product catalog
- Less overhead costs
- Fast business growth
- Zero Product customization
- Low-quality control
- Limited Scope of Branding
- Singular parameter (price) for gaining competitive advantage
- Complex coordination among multiple dropshippers
Which Fulfillment Model to Choose?
Each of the three fulfillment models has its advantages and limitations. The best way to determine which fulfillment model is ideal for your business is to distinguish your business goals and understand its requirements.
If you are planning to start an eCommerce business and want to handle all the operations on your own, the In-House fulfillment or dropshipping model is best for you.
However, if you are a seller witnessing robust business growth; the Third-party model will work for you. All the medium-size businesses benefit tremendously with a third-party fulfillment model. Whatever your business plans shall be, Shiprocket provides the best eCommerce logistics services that are sure to keep your end-customers delighted.

The Nevada Unemployment rate drops in November, however the rate is still more than 3 percentage points above the national average.
The Nevada Unemployment rate for November released by the Nevada Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation (NVDETR) is listed at 10.8%.
There is good news and bad news with that number.
The good news is that as compared to the state’s unemployment rate in November of 2011, it is an improvement.
Last November the rate was 13%.
The bad news is that the numbers do not tell the entire story.
Yes, the rate has dropped but has it really dropped?
Many people simply stopped looking for work; others took on menial jobs as compared to the jobs they once held. If a person making $100,000 a year took on a job for $7 an hour, that is figured into the numbers as a good thing, when it is really a sign of still very deep problems within the economy.
Likewise, people that have simply stopped looking for work can skew the numbers as well, therefore the true rate of unemployment, and underemployment, is really much higher.
There is also some very bad news.
States that have been hit with high unemployment traditionally have offered what is called Emergency Unemployment Compensation (EUC) and State Extended Benefits (SEB) for those out of work to tide them over until they can find suitable employment.
Due to battles with Democrats and Republicans, the EUC program ends on week ending 12-29. Because of the inability of Congress to come to any kind of agreement, right now there is no extension.
Further the SEB program ended in July. SEB Benefits offer an additional 20 weeks of unemployment benefits for those in states with a high rate of unemployment.
Although the Nevada rate of unemployment remains in the double digits, the formula used to calculate a state’s eligibility determined that Nevada is ineligible yet other states with a much lower rate, such as New York, have people collecting state extended benefits.
With the fiscal cliff looming, President Obama had said that extending the unemployment benefits into 2013 is very important and must be part of the deal.
There is strong opposition from Republicans who seem to be more interested in preserving their tax breaks for the wealthy and taking away the payroll tax break for the working class.
Even though the Nevada Unemployment rate drops in November of 2012, the economy is still in the throes of a recovery and the looming ending of benefits will affect many. | <urn:uuid:8195de24-8574-4553-9b00-a4a91480eb2c> | CC-MAIN-2023-14 | http://www.lasvegasworldnews.com/nevada-unemployment-rate-drops-in-november/9953/ | 2023-03-23T12:12:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-14/segments/1679296945144.17/warc/CC-MAIN-20230323100829-20230323130829-00363.warc.gz | en | 0.972056 | 511 |

One of my prized clients was recognized last week in Phoenix as the Professional Farm Manager of the Year. I have been working with Dick Isaacson and his son, Ben, since 2014 to develop and implement an ownership transition plan. They have been very successful in its execution and are embarking on Phase II of the plan three years ahead of time! It’s been a pleasure to be a small part of their success. Congratulations Dick.
Read on for more on his story:
- Marion, Iowa, farm manager selected for respected industry award
- Annual award recognizes excellence in farm management and customer satisfaction
- Co-sponsored by Syngenta, Farm Journal’s AgPro magazine and the American Society of Farm Managers and Rural Appraisers
GREENSBORO, N.C., USA, November 1, 2018– Dick Isaacson, founder and owner of Agri-Management Services, Marion, Iowa, has been chosen to receive the 2018 Professional Farm Manager of the Year Award. The award, co-sponsored by Syngenta, Farm Journal’s AgPro magazine and the American Society of Farm Managers and Rural Appraisers (ASFMRA), recognizes farm managers who display excellence in client service and a commitment to agriculture.
Working in the agriculture industry for over 40 years, Isaacson opened Agri-Management Services as a sole proprietorship in 1990. He has grown the company to employ several staff members, including his son, who serve more than 50 clients across six states. Agri-Management Services has earned a reputation for providing outstanding customer service and possessing an extensive knowledge of farm management best practices
Peers and colleagues know Isaacson as an individual who is fully committed to the agriculture industry. “I work with several farm managers and have found Dick to be a pleasure to work with through several challenges. He has been calm and steady through the roller coaster of agriculture over the last decade,†said Matt Jungman, an associate who has worked with Dick for 10 years.
As a farm manager, Isaacson takes a personal approach to developing his business. He focuses on building lasting relationships with clients, which leads to long-lasting partnerships and new business referrals from his existing client base. “Client retention is an ongoing focus. Our contact goes beyond the written reports sent two to four times a year. We consider our clients part of the Agri-Management Services family. We work together when making decisions about capital improvements and other major changes,†he said.
Isaacson is an active participant of ASFMRA and considers his involvement in the organization to be at the core of his professional development as a farm manager.

|Age Decelerating Cream||
Age Decelerating Cream with kinetin is an Almay skin care product that does not appear to be offered by the company any longer. However, the product is still available through outlet website and online auction houses, so we feel it is important for consumers to know precisely what this anti-aging cream is all about. The Almay Kinetin Age Decelerating Cream claims to deliver dramatic results to the skin without the potential irritation risk of alpha hydroxy acids or retinol. It does so with what it touts are two newcomers to the anti-aging spectrum; kinetin and gluconamide.
Unfortunately, since it appears that Almay no longer carries the Kinetin Age Decelerating Cream, we were also unable to find important information like a complete ingredient list for the formula, customer testimonials or a money back guarantee. The good news is that if consumers do find the Kinetin Age Decelerating Cream for sale, they will undoubtedly find it at a greatly reduced price. However, without important information like the ingredients included in the mix, it is very difficult to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of this product.
Without an official website providing a complete ingredient list for the Almay Kinetin Age Decelerating Cream, we are unable to accurately determine whether this product will be safe for all skin types or particularly effective. The only two ingredients that we were able to identify in the formula include kinetin and gluconamide. These two “wonder” ingredients are touted as “powerful line-smoothing” substances on one website that still offers the product for sale. We will look further at these two substances to see if they really can deliver on their promises.
Kinetin, a substance found in plants, is known as a super moisturizer in skin care formulas. However, as other substances have appeared on the market with equal or better skin hydration abilities, kinetin is not frequently found in anti-aging products. We believe the best skin hydrator for anti-aging purposes is hyaluronic acid, due to its ability to help the skin retain moisture, smooth the skin’s surface and reduce the appearance of fine lines. Gluconamide is a common substance found in numerous hair care products and cosmetics. However, we were unable to find any research to support this ingredient as an effective anti-aging substance.
- The Almay Kinetin Age Decelerating Cream can be found on some websites for a discounted price.
- The product comes from a major company with a reputation for quality.
- Almay appears to no longer offer the Age Decelerating Cream for sale.
- We were unable to find a complete ingredient list for the product.
- The cream does not appear to include proven anti-aging substances like hyaluronic acid, argireline and matrixyl.
The Bottom Line
The Almay Kinetin Age Decelerating Cream appears to be lacking some key anti-aging ingredients that would boost its effectiveness in this area. Since the product does not seem to be offered by the company any longer, we believe consumers should look elsewhere for more potent formulas that are currently available. | <urn:uuid:12f7de78-ca3a-447c-9933-6f59dec8d903> | CC-MAIN-2014-41 | http://www.theperformanceleader.com/age-decelerating-cream-review/ | 2014-10-01T16:15:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-41/segments/1412037663467.44/warc/CC-MAIN-20140930004103-00325-ip-10-234-18-248.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.937176 | 710 |

How to Make Popsicles with Common Household Materials [Recipe]
Summer is here and it’s a great time to invite your children into the kitchen to mix up a batch of homemade popsicles. Your family can have a cool treat without worrying if it’s filled with mystery ingredients. From citrus and herbs to fruit and chocolate, the flavor combinations are endless. There’ll be no arguing because everyone can have their “favorites.” Plus, it’s an easy way for moms like me to get our little ones try new fruits. It’s okay if you don’t have fancy popsicle molds; I’ll tell you about three common household items that will work great for making these tasty snacks.
Save Money, Avoid the Waste: How to Make Popsicles at Home
I’m sure you all have more ideas, but I tested making popsicles in a plastic ice tray, silicone tray and paper cup. I know a lot of people like to use plastic wrap/cling wrap to keep their sticks in place. But I think aluminum foil is a better option as it can be reused and maybe even recycled (check with your service provider). If the foil is salvageable then I rinse and wad it up and use it to scrub pots and pans. Another great idea to reuse foil is tossing it in the dryer along with wet laundry to lessen static. We’ll explore this topic more another day; back to popsicle making.
Here’s how you can make one of my family’s favorite summer treats of Vegan Fudgesicles, made from frozen bananas, cocoa powder and vanilla.
- Blend together all of the ingredients. No measuring is necessary; add ingredients to suit your taste preferences.
- Choose whichever “molding” item you like and fill it about three-fourths of the way to the top.
- Cover snuggly with aluminum foil.
- Cut small slits into the foil and insert the sticks. Remember not to cut the slits too big to avoid having the popsicle sticks fall over and not freeze in place.
- Let the mixture freeze overnight or for at least 6 hours.
With a little twist, the ice tray was the easiest method for me. I removed the foil, and the sticks were frozen into place and clean-up was a breeze. The silicone mold was a tad bit more difficult, but a fork should work just fine to wedge them loose. Lastly, I turned the paper cup upside down and turned the stick and cup in opposite directions. You can rinse and save your cup to make more fudgesicles later on. I like all three of these “molds” because they are the perfect portion size for children (and parents) who are too busy enjoying Summer to sit still for very long. If you don’t have time to do these steps, you could just pour your fudgesicle mixture into a bowl and eat as ice cream. Yummy!
What are some other common household items you like to use to make popsicles at home? I’d love to hear from you. | <urn:uuid:810e8721-acd5-4372-b983-e4578b917964> | CC-MAIN-2014-49 | http://sustainablog.org/2014/07/make-popsicles-common-household-materials-recipe/ | 2014-11-22T10:14:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-49/segments/1416400377225.6/warc/CC-MAIN-20141119123257-00164-ip-10-235-23-156.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.944966 | 670 |

Student Convocation, 2019 – A Commitment to Excellence
- by Jizlibel Dohou
The Student Convocation at the Unification Theological Seminary (UTS) on Wednesday 27th of March was a great event to meet up with new students and touch base with professors and staff. A moving prayer was offered by Dr. Jacob David, an Anglican pastor, and UTS professor and chaplain.
One of two MCs for the event, Samuel Dennis (UTS’18), invited up the first speaker, Dr. Hugh Spurgin (UTS’77) the president of Unification Theological Seminary. Spurgin stressed that it is the students who are the most important asset of the seminary. Whether they are online students or in classroom students, they are vital to the standing of UTS. He spoke appreciatively about the first cohort of UTS Online students in Fall 2017 which launched the program. UTS Online has been enthusiastically received each semester since then.
Emphasizing the uniqueness of the UTS, “the Interfaith School,” and its dynamic mission of “bridging religious and cultural divides,” Spurgin informed the new students that there are many inter-denominational seminaries but very few Inter-Faith seminaries. UTS graduates are providing leadership in close to 100 countries throughout the world, effectively being channels of peace in each of those countries. He ended by giving his blessing to the new students of the seminary.
Carla Mongado, a soprano, who plans to be a student at the seminary in the Fall, then filled the Oak Room with song. Her touching and beautiful voice added a great sense of presence in the Oak Room.
Afterwards came a candle ceremony assisted by Joy Theriot, Interim Director of Student Life. Each new student held a lighted candle. Theriot explained that when the candles are lit, this represents peace within each student, a peace that would then shine out on the world.
The new students recited the Student Code, a code to guide their student life.
Unification Theological Seminary Student Code
I commit myself before God:
1. To develop my relationship with God through regular spiritual practices with full devotion of heart, mind and body;
2. To uphold and live according to the highest moral and ethical standards in my personal life and relations with others;
3. To respect the campus as a smoke-free, alcohol-free and drug-free environment, and to maintain my body at all times as a temple of God;
4. To refrain from premarital and extramarital relationships, sexual harassment and pornography;
5. To respect the diversity of cultural and religious traditions;
6. To attend enrolled classes and fulfill academic responsibilities with honesty and integrity;
7. To pursue my religious vocation with integrity upon graduation.
I recognize that admission to UTS is a privilege, and hereby make my sincere commitment in heart and action to the provisions of this code, and to all standards of the Seminary as described in the Student Handbook.
The audience was moved by a message from Roeline Ramirez, a current Master of Religious Education at UTS, Christian Education Coordinator and member of the Trinity United Methodist Church in New Jersey. Her journey to come and study at UTS served as the highlight of the convocation; she shared her great experience. Her experience of the seminary had opened her heart and served as her inspiration in fulfilling her mission.
Two students gave responses: Bishop Rene Ballenas and Regina Talja. Ballenas is a Master of Divinity student and a Seventh Day Adventist pastor. He asked all of the UTS students to become UTS “ambassadors” and to each bring one student to study at UTS. He was followed by Talja a Master of Arts student, who compared her discovery of UTS to finding an “oasis in the desert” which moved, inspired, and strengthened her life of faith.
Congratulatory and closing remarks were given by Dr. Keisuke Noda, Academic Dean, who encouraged the students to pursue studies with a commitment to excellence. He emphasized excellence as a virtue for UTS faculty and staff too.
Dasse Diarra an MDiv student, and the second MC for the evening, concluded the program by requesting one more song from Carla Mongado and a closing prayer and blessing from Dr. David. | <urn:uuid:64eb4efa-17cf-479e-a7b8-1a1fe28e0e0c> | CC-MAIN-2019-18 | https://uts.edu/news-and-events/638-student-convocation-2019-a-commitment-to-excellence | 2019-04-18T10:16:21Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-18/segments/1555578517558.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20190418101243-20190418122319-00000.warc.gz | en | 0.957028 | 919 |

When Did You First Read Twilight (year) and how many times have you read a Twilight Book (total)?
I started reading the Twilight Saga in 2008 just after I saw the movie. I have only fully reread New Moon, Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn (one reread each), but I love picking up the books and going back to my favorite chapters. for example, I have read (in Twilight) Chapter 5: Blood Type and Chapter 14: Mind Over Matter both a ZILLION times.
Team Edward or Team Jacob? Why?
I am Team Switzerland but definitely not Team Bella. I guess I choose to side with neither love interest because you could fairly argue that both of them are not safe for her, that both are perfect for her, that both care for her deeply, that they have both been complete jerks to her and to other people, have both done something completely stupid that screwed up everything. You could argue any way you wanted to in this debate and still have a 50/50 chance of winning. How about Team Alice?!
Which Character Are You Most Like?
I would say that I am probably most like Alice (and not just because she is oneof my favorite characters). She is just a very fun person with a great peronality and always wants to care for people and make them happy. Plus, I always have a wierd sense of deja vu, so if I turned into a vampire telling the future would definitely be my extra power.
The Host, Sarah Dessen books, Time Traveler's Wife, The Twilight Saga

I'm Phil Batzner - I work at Northwestern Mutual as Product Owner, and am a Marquette University alumnus.
I’ve been a witness to the evolution of the Internet throughout my entire life. Since I was born the year the Internet was created, I’ve never known what it was like to live outside a digital world. I was fortunate to grow up in an entrepreneurial household where I had the opportunity to learn innovation first-hand, fueling my passion for creating at a young age. As long as I can remember I’ve been creating—whether personally or professionally—and with my background in digital + my current endeavors in product, I keep creating. I keep building.
Now, I'm fortunate to work in technology where I use creative problem solving to identify, build and produce solutions for users to enhance their lives. As an advocate for purposeful innovation, I find myself prepared for what the unknown, yet to be discovered technological future holds.
When I'm not exploring the world or loving life in MKE, you can most likely find me DJing , enjoying a juicy burger, wearing bow ties and capturing life's moments through a camera.
Take a look around the rest of my website and portfolio, and I look forward to hearing from you in the future!

After spending a few days with daughter Darcey and son-in-law Todd and their cats, sisters Roxie and Pepper, I had a total giggle fit when I saw some Cat Butt Coasters by Krystin Long. Definitely a must have for my daughter and s-i-l. There were some free patterns on Ravelry, but I really liked the curved tail on this pattern AND I do like to support Indies. After buying the pattern, I searched for the perfect acrylic yarn which would match the cats’ coats and then quickly crocheted four coasters. You can see how well the yarn matches Pepper in the below picture.
“The Field of Blood is a British crime drama television series adapting Denise Mina‘s The Field of Blood which is set in 1982 and The Dead Hour which is set later in the same decade. The first series of two episodes was broadcast on BBC One on 8 & 9 May 2011 and a second series of two episodes was commissioned by the BBC in 2012 which aired on the 8 & 9 August 2013.” – Wikipedia
The main protagonist, Paddy Mehan (played by Jayd Johnson) in The Field of Blood was wearing this fabulous hat during one of the episodes. Pausing the program and taking pictures is the pits! Sorry, I did the best I could. The center of the hat was totally out of focus, but you can still see the “wheel”. My question is – this is crochet right? And to all crocheters – Have any of you seen a pattern like this? It kinda looks as if its a star. Was it constructed from the center and worked outward? It looks as if there is a crochet brim. Is this worked afterwards? I REALLY like this hat and would like to be able to make a similar one.
As we move into a three day weekend, it’s the perfect time to get a library card and enjoy all of the FREE eresources available to you. For years now, I’ve downloaded ebooks and audiobooks for free from the library. Now, to my great excitement, libraries are offering more and more FREE emagazine checkouts through Zinio. A quick screen shot shows some of the magazines I have been able to “subscribe” to through my local library. The nice thing is that the checkout NEVER expires so you can keep the ezines on Zinio for as long as you like. Read an issue you don’t care to keep? Just edit, click on the “X” and delete it! In addition, there are usually multiple issues to download. I downloaded four American Patchwork Quilting issues, etc. You don’t need a tablet or iPad to use Zinio, you can read it online on a regular computer.
Did you know that there are “State” librarian help desks online that can answer questions about libraries in your state? I “spoke” to one and found that as a California resident that I can get a free library card at most libraries in the state, I don’t have to be a resident of the county the library is in. In some states, I can pay $10/year and get a card. Good news to me since different libraries offer slightly different eresources. I am addicted to audiobooks and love to listen to them while knitting, sewing, crafting, etc. As one of those kids who loved being read to, the love continues. I’d say my very favorite audiobook narrator is Davina Porter. I’ve checked out books I don’t normally “read” just because I love her voice. Conversely, there have been some books that I haven’t been able to get past the first chapter because listening to the narrator is as if I’m hearing fingernails on a chalkboard.
After finishing one audiobook last night, I decided that I’d really like to listen to the Louise Penny books. I have five different library cards, by “visiting” each library I was able to download her first three books and put the others on “hold”. Hopefully this is new info to someone and you get a library card and join in the “e-venture”.
OK, I admit it! I’m a Pinterest Junkie. Did a search on Pinterest looking for free DIY tutorials for sewn, crocheted, and knitted baskets. Here are a Pinterest Plethora of ideas! Some of my favorites (Click on the pictures to go to the tutorial):
The Simple Color Totes instructions are not given, but they are based on the instructions found at the link.
Needing a “yarn fix”, by Yelping I found Aloha Yarns in Kaneohe a small town just outside of base. I am almost done with the second Tidal Wave sock, (gasp) and “really needed” some yarn for the flight home. Although the store was in an odd location, upstairs and next to a tattoo parlor I totally loved the store. Walking around and fingering all of the wonderful floor models and reading the tags I found a new, free pattern blog: Knit Purl Hunter. All of the store’s pattern models are fab and hand-knit by the uber-friendly owner. These are the three models she had knit using different colors of yarn than the pictures from Knit Purl Hunter. The Repeat Performance sock pattern is the reason I purchased the sock yarn. The models knit in the store were out of solid colors, but I’m hoping the Sock-A-Licious slightly variagated yarn will be useable in still allowing the wonderful play of patterns to show. Patterns on display at Aloha Yarns:
Other pattern I had to download:
I downloaded almost every free pattern at the site. Look at all of the lovely sock patterns! What’s absolutely lovely, is that there are free videos to accompany the patterns. This is a win-win site. Go now and visit! And, if you get a chance, visit Aloha Yarns it is a wonderful LYS.
~I LOVE my Kindle. Not only do I have tons of fiction downloaded to it, I also have “crafty-type” books. On a recents perusal, I found a lot of great deals on knitting and crochet books. You don’t have to have a Kindle to cash in on the deals, just download the app to your computer, iPad, etc. Loving this. All patterns/books are from Amazon and have price paid in the caption under the picture. Prices listed are for the KINDLE ebooks, not hard-bound books.
In November, the One-skein Lace ebook was on sale for $2.51 as was Knit Socks!: 17 Classic Patterns for Cozy Feet, so it pays to keep checking for sale items. This is just a sampling. I click on Kindle ebooks then search for knitting or crochet and lovely books pop up. I know there are other ebooks sites: Barnes and Nobel, Google Play, eBooks.com, iTunes, iBooks, and Kobo to name a few. It pays to check out the ebooks for great prices on craft books.
~Thanks to Blue Peninsula, I’ve discovered there is a first time ever Ravelry Indie Design Gift-A-Long. From November 1 to December 31 you’ll be able to win prizes and get discounts on patterns by dozens of indie designers on Ravelry. “Indie designers have donated lots and lots of beautiful yarn, patterns, gift certificates, and other goodies.” Head over here to join into the fun and have any questions answered. Sorry, no more time to write, have to head over and browse. | <urn:uuid:d6f95d04-7a48-446c-933f-4a91374f5c8c> | CC-MAIN-2018-30 | https://curlsandq.wordpress.com/category/crocheting-2/ | 2018-07-21T03:24:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-30/segments/1531676592309.94/warc/CC-MAIN-20180721032019-20180721052019-00427.warc.gz | en | 0.960154 | 1,643 |
On Monday, July 30 at 6:30 p.m. the Board of Larimer County Commissioners and the Larimer County Planning Commission, in a joint session, will hear a resolution to establish a two-year rebuilding program for the High Park fire area. The public hearing takes place at 200 West Oak St. at the Larimer County Courthouse Offices Building in the 1st floor Hearing Room.
The High Park fire destroyed 259 homes and numbers of accessory structures. The Larimer County Planning staff is recommending a two year program to assist fire survivors in their rebuilding efforts by providing a program that includes:
· provisions for temporary emergency housing
· provisions for temporary emergency accessory structures
· provides for the documentation of non-conforming structures and uses
· extends the timeframe to rebuild a nonconforming structure or reestablish a nonconforming use
· provides an administrative setback variance program for rebuilding structures
· provides a process for a property owner seeking to rebuild or reestablish business uses that have been operating without all required approvals and permits.
For further information Contact Larimer County Planning Department at 970-498-7683 or Planning Director Russ Legg at 970-498-7690. | <urn:uuid:3ccbe947-5709-494b-a57e-c82eb175a866> | CC-MAIN-2018-05 | http://northfortynews.com/nonconforming-buildings-setback-variances-topic-of-july-30-high-park-rebuilding-program/ | 2018-01-19T19:14:54Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-05/segments/1516084888113.39/warc/CC-MAIN-20180119184632-20180119204632-00470.warc.gz | en | 0.887227 | 241 |
