Economic news was largely negative for the week as new releases on housing starts and consumer spending fell below analyst estimates. Fourth quarter GDP was revised down 0.4% to a 2.2% annualized pace, bringing the 2018 GDP growth rate to 3%. In other market news, SOFR was relatively well behaved at quarter-end, when compared to the dislocations that took place at the turn of the year. The SOFR volume weighted median for March 29th was reported to be 2.65% on roughly $900 billion in volume, a 22 basis point increase in rate from the day prior.
Market participants will be looking forward to updated figures on retail sales, construction spending, the ISM manufacturing index and the March jobs report.

Proteas fast bowler Kagiso Rabada has admitted the past week has been “a bit of a whirlwind”, but he is taking it all in his stride.
The young bowler is currently suspended for the next two Test matches against Australia for brushing the shoulder of the visiting captain Steve Smith during the second Test at St George’s Park.
Cricket South Africa are appealing the decision, but the 22-year-old is just trying to put it all behind him.
“It is nice to have some quiet time, chill with family and friends, and get up to things that I normally would.
“It has been a bit of a whirlwind, there has been a lot of talk, a lot of hype.
National Police Commissioner General Khehla Sitole has called for calm and tolerance in Umlalazi, Eshowe, in KwaZulu-Natal following violent protests.
Hundreds of residents went on the rampage after a man was shot dead on the Gqobhokani farm.
According to police, on Wednesday two young men, one of them being 30-year-old Spamandla Xulu, were fishing at a dam on the Gqobhokani farm.
The men were confronted by a security guard who requested that they leave. An altercation ensued which led to the guard allegedly fatally shooting Xulu. The second man escaped uninjured. | 2019-04-21T13:15:58 | http://www.newspages.co.za/2018/04/09/ |
Excuse me whilst I try not to squeal and burst over the excitement of reliving this road trip I went on that I thought I would never get to do- not even in my wildest dreams!
At first we didn’t know we were on the famous route 66; it was just an extension of the grey road we’d been following through the wilderness for the best part of the day. Then, all of a sudden, we pulled up outside the Hackberry General Store, which was complete with a group of big butch guys on motorcycles outside who had stopped to get gas- it was all very Sons of Anarchy.
We hopped out to admire, take photos, and obviously chat to bikers who seemed very interested in our English accents.
The store itself was no more than a rusty metal shack, which was obviously part of its appeal. Most of the reminders of days gone by outside were rusting- old time cars, gas pumps, old vending machines, and Coca-Cola adverts. However, there was a red convertible old-style car, parked out on the porch, which looked in much better condition than everything else. Another thing I noticed is that no matter where you looked there was no forgetting where you were. Badge after badge, sign after sign had ‘route 66’ written on it somewhere.
It’s either a very well preserved general store or a very good mock up- I still can’t tell which! I think it’s a bit of both.
Before stepping inside you’d be forgiven for thinking it was just a museum now, but it’s still a shop-mainly a gift shop but a shop none-the-less, complete with lone shop assistant! The front sells postcards and keyrings- the usual gift shop tat- the middle has a mock-up of an old American diner, and the back is an apparel section. There were also toilets in there full of life-size Marilyn Monroe mannequins. I’m not gonna lie, trying to wee with Marilyn Monroe watching you is hella creepy!
After the Hackberry store we ended up at a route 66 road-marking (one of the last remaining ones I believe, although I have no clue which town it was in!). I know this will sound awfully cheesy but the way I felt standing next to the road-marking was unbelievable. I don’t know about you guys, but I associate route 66 with the old America and getting the chance to experience even a tiny bit of that was absolutely amazing. We became typical tourists and took a few (hundred) photos before hitting the road again.
Next we ended up in the little town on Seligman, Arizona. I’m absolutely terrible with all things geography so I have no idea how long it took us, or how far it was from our last stop. I don’t think it took us long… Anyway! According to my good friend Wikipedia, Seligman was on the original Route 66 until 1978, and is now a popular tourist destination, which might have something to do with it being the first stop on the longest uninterrupted stretch of route 66 heading west.
This place was everything you’d expect from Route 66, and it was amazing. There’s no way you could simply drive through this town without getting out of your car to explore further. In these surroundings it’s easy to imagine and old time America and the fun that was had on Route 66 in its glory days. This was highlighted by the humour that the area has not lost- dead chicken from the roadkill café anyone? How about some good old-fashioned teasing from the Snow Cap drive in?
We walked around admiring more rusty cars, life-sized mannequins, billboards, and a wooden outdoor toilet which looked like it would collapse at any moment (yes, I used it but very quickly and I’m sure people could easily see through the huge gap where the door didn’t meet the frame when it closed!). It felt like walking around a movie set.
There were more gift shops in this place, so we wandered around those for a while. I bought some stuff that I would never ordinarily buy because I thought I might regret not buying it once I got home. Note to self: you will never regret not buying a gift shop pen! After that we went to the world famous Snow Cap drive in for lunch and were teased by extremely sarcastic servers. We loved it! And, yes, I did fall prey to the door which said push on the side attached to the wall. Oops, I should have known! Whilst the wonderful staff and the fame of the place is the big attraction, the food deserves some recognition too; I had an amazing veggie burger and a chocolate malt shake that I’m still salivating about now!
All-in-all, although we didn’t do much of the road and only did it in a day, it was still the absolute road trip of a lifetime and a day that I’ll never forget.
If you’re ever wanting to do an all American road trip and are wondering if Route 66 is worth it: it is absolutely worth it! | 2019-04-20T08:44:58 | https://puttheworldtowrites.co.uk/destinations/usa/come-get-your-kicks-on-route-66/ |

"Acoustic Trauma is a found object. It's a work of the imagination made from shards and scraps of dialect, religious epic and history yoked together, allowing languages to sidle up side by side, allowing multiple identities to co-exist. Where there was danger of loss, Rajiv Mohabir has excavated and refashioned the fractured past into newness and wholeness, in an act deeper than translation. It is trans-creation, his poem a whole sorrow, a whole beauty, both whale song and exile's song; and it is reclamation, a process of self-discovery and rediscovery for the colonized subject fighting against the erasures of history."
A collection of translations from a single Indo-Caribbean Kabira folk song, reimagined into poetry, woven in and out of three languages. An experiment in language and translation, Mohabir merges the Imaginaries of three distinct worldviews into one poetic.
*na mash me bone* fuses original Guyanese folk songs with a spiritually charged English translation, a new rendering that sings its way back into the realm of the sacred. | 2019-04-24T00:59:20 | http://www.rajivmohabir.com/chapbooks |
Located in Chexbres, in the heart of the Lavaux UNESCO vineyards, the Lion d'Or is a lovely place, managed by the region’s well-known gourmet professionals. Their roots and their love of the Vaud canton are mixed together in a large, varied menu. Amateurs can find specialities such as “potence”, Australian fondue or “bitoque” (a Portuguese beef steak) among the many meat suggestions. Pizzas, a tribute to Italian cuisine, can be eaten on the spot or to go, while a large choice of pasta brings together “Nonna’s” expertise for a good price too.
The wine list accompanies the food menu, giving Lavaux wines pride of place but also allowing guests to discover Italian, Spanish and Portuguese nectars. | 2019-04-21T10:11:42 | https://www.montreuxriviera.com/en/P10194/lion-d-or-chexbres |
Chevy Chase, MD — An intricate new three-dimensional protein structure is providing a detailed look into how brain cells communicate rapidly.
The work describes a surprising new cooperation among the three proteins, and could offer insight into other processes where cells secrete molecules, including insulin and airway mucus. Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) Investigator Axel Brunger and colleagues report the results August 24 in the journal Nature.
When a group of neurons receives an electrical signal, the cells release chemicals called neurotransmitters nearly instantaneously – within less than one thousandth of a second. Neurons hold neurotransmitters in bubble-like structures called synaptic vesicles. These structures rest inside the end of long, thin projections that point toward neighbouring cells. To free neurotransmitters from their bubbles, neurons must fuse vesicle membranes with the outer membrane of the projections. This opens the bubbles and dumps their contents into the space between cells. The chemical signals then float to neighbouring cells to relay a message.
Scientists knew that three proteins are involved in spitting out neurons’ chemical signals. A group of proteins called SNAREs provides energy for membrane fusion. Another protein, called synaptotagmin, releases neurotransmitters when calcium ions appear following an electrical signal. A third protein, complexin, prevents cells from spontaneously releasing neurotransmitters. Synaptotagmin and complexin each partner with SNARE proteins, but until now, scientists could not explain how these three components worked together.
Brunger’s team at Stanford University synthesized portions of each component, allowed them to assemble into a complex, and coaxed the complex to form crystals. Then they determined the structure of the complex by measuring how the crystals diffracted x-ray light.
The crystal structure revealed two ways that the proteins interact. The first interaction – between synaptotagmin and the SNARE proteins – is identical to one Brunger and colleagues described in a 2015 paper in Nature. A second, unexpected, interaction revealed a relationship between all three components in the larger complex.
In this three-component interaction, a curly helix of complexin nestles near a helix in a synaptotagmin protein, arranged so that twists of the helices align like the threads of a screw. These helices also rest atop helices of the SNARE complex.
In collaboration with HHMI Investigator Thomas Südhof, the researchers engineered mouse neurons to produce mutated synaptotagmin proteins, which weakened the attraction between the three proteins. Cells with mutated proteins, or ones that lacked complexin, lost the ability to synchronize neurotransmitter release.
Based on their observations, the researchers propose that the three-part interaction locks down the SNARE proteins, so they cannot perform the membrane fusion required for neurotransmitter release until the right moment. Complexin pins the three proteins together, and synaptotagmin might unlock the SNARE proteins when triggered by calcium ions.
There are more than 60 different SNARE proteins in mammalian cells, which, along with various forms of synaptotagmin, are involved in hormone release and other cellular processes. A similar three-part interaction involving SNARE proteins may be used for other calcium-dependent cellular release processes too, Brunger says.

As civil litigators and family lawyers in Cornwall, the law firm of McClelland & Cook have decades of combined experience. After checking out our services on this page, don’t hesitate to call our office with any questions.
If family issues are not capable of being resolved by agreement or mediation, then a client may choose to avail himself or herself of the arbitration process or the court process to have the dispute finalized.
…and the defence of any of the above. Legal expertise is brought to bear to attempt to resolve such disputes by agreement, and failing agreement, the matter is usually resolved through the court process.
Why is a Lawyer a Good Resource?
The law is simple. The law is complex. For example, it is simple to say murder is against the law. However, a murder trial may take months to reach a decision and involve complex issues of fact, law and evidence. Simple and complex.
Resolving legal issues requires good fact gathering, a facility with the mediation or court process, rules, evidence and people. It is important to have an experienced legal guide to assist a client to maximize his or her opportunities within the legal framework in the process of bringing his or her dispute to a completion.
McClelland & Cook is here to assist clients that require our experience to solve their problems.

On the bright side, they'll be cheaper in China.
When it comes to fashion "investment pieces," it's easy to understand why Chanel bags are among the most popular internationally. Not only are the styles timeless, but there's a certain prestige — and consequent pleasure — that comes with purchasing one in a brick-and-mortar store. Something that has widely varied when it comes to the French label, however, is its international pricing. Due to currency fluctuations in different countries, Chanel bags in Asia have shot up in price, now costing nearly twice as much as they do in Europe.
Chanel is taking steps to effectively reduce this price difference, confirming in a statement to Fashionista that the brand plans to harmonize the prices of its most iconic bags worldwide — the 11.2, the 2.55 and the Boy bag — beginning April 8. For example, the price of Chanel's Boy bag, which currently costs €3,100 in Europe and ¥32,700 in China, will soon cost €3,720 in Europe and ¥26,000 in China. This move follows the recent depreciation of the euro, which, as of Monday, hit a 12-year low against the dollar.
The adjustments will be a boon for shoppers who don't want to travel, but bad for online resellers in Europe. The company said that resellers are a big part of why it made the changes, explaining that they "benefit from current price differentials and jeopardize the business, the image and the exclusivity of Chanel."
We imagine Chanel's European stores will see a spike in bag sales before the price increases take effect — and one on Ebay, following it. Global pricing of Chanel's other goods will gradually align moving forward, the company said.
And you can soon dress your little girl just like "Annie."
According to a new study, the Chanel flap bag might be a more sound investment than real estate.

Radiometer America’s ABL family of analyzers are often found in biopharmaceutical Good Manufacturing Process & Process Development suites. They are also found in academic university and government research labs. These labs may be involved in clinical studies at a hospital or government institution; alternatively, they can be performing research or acting as a contract research organization (CRO).
Research & biopharmaceutical facilities currently growing cells in media have unique needs that can greatly benefit from having a medical grade analyzer. During cell growth, researchers may measure pH dissolved gases, lactate, glucose, and electrolytes to monitor cell culture media. It’s important that these measurements are just as accurate during cell culture monitoring as they would be in a clinical situation.
The same is true for clinical research comparing the efficacy of treatments, protocols and drugs. Whether research is done in humans or animals, getting an accurate picture is paramount where only analyzers designed and FDA approved for clinical patient care will do.
Numerous research customers choose Radiometer based on the high sensitivity of our parameters, the small sample size requirements and high throughput of our instruments. Not to mention ease of use and limited to no operator maintenance. Accuracy and dependability are crucial in a research setting. After all, these research results will often lay down the foundation of tomorrow’s medical advancements. | 2019-04-25T17:47:51 | https://www.radiometer.ca/en-us/clinical-settings/drug-development-academic-research |
There are four K-9 teams and each team consists of a K-9 handler and a dual-purpose trained K-9. The K-9s are utilized for narcotics detection and patrol work. We, also, have a fifth team currently in training. This canine will be trained exclusively as a drug dog and will be used by our narcotics team. These dogs are trained to search for and locate illegal drugs; perform tracks; evidence searches; building and subject searches; and criminal apprehension. Whenever they are not on the job, they reside with their handler, making it a full-time partnership, not just one for work.
The Department is excited to welcome two new dogs and their handlers to our K-9 Unit. Officer Comer has received a new partner named Gunner and Officer Swiggett will be working with Koda. Both dogs are German Shepherds. These teams have already begun their 8 week training course, which began with a week of bonding with the dogs and exercises such as fetch, and their second week included obedience, tracking, and drug detection. We wish both the teams the best of luck as they work hard to get ready for their new jobs with the K-9 Unit. Keep an eye on our Facebook page for cool training videos of our teams.
K-9 officers apply through their chain of command to be considered for the position of handler. To be considered, officers have to have at least two years of police service. When an officer is selected for the K-9 program, the officer is matched with a K-9 partner and both attend a basic K-9 course that can last up to fourteen weeks. After basic training, the K-9 and handler must attend sixteen hours of in-service training each month. The training covers a variety of topics, such as legal updates and suspect tracking as well as drug and article searches.
The teams must attend annual certification trials conducted by the United States Police K-9 Association (USPCA). After completion of the trails, K-9 teams are certified in a range of categories. Aside from membership in the USPCA, some K-9 members belong to other police K-9 organizations and attend additional training conducted by those organizations.
The Burlington Police Department uses two distinct breeds of K-9 for the program, German Shepherds and Belgian Malinois, because both breeds have a proven record of intelligence, bravery, and athletic ability. Both breeds have a heritage as working dogs in the herding class, and their extreme sense of smell, alertness, and loyalty to their handler make them a valuable asset in times of danger. | 2019-04-24T09:49:04 | https://burlingtonnc.gov/463/K9-Unit |

It is important to check the air pressure of your tyres often. During the winter, it might be that you need to top up your tyres with air, as the pressure drops with decreasing temperatures.
Low air pressure in the tyres will negatively impact your fuel consumption of your vehicle due to increased rolling resistance. It also increases the tyre wear, which means you need to replace the tyres more often. Your car will also not perform as well as it should, if the tyres are not having the correct tyre pressure. This is regardless if you have summer or winter tyres mounted on your car. | 2019-04-21T14:56:29 | https://all-weathertyres.com/2019/01/10/remember-to-inflate-your-tyres-during-the-winter-season/ |

Samsung Has Unveiled That The Solar Panel-toting E1107 Will Be Released This Year.
Until now, Solar panels were used to channel energy to power watches, water heaters, lamps, mobile chargers but now a mobile phone from Samsung is powered by the light of the sun. The concept of an eco phone is nothing new but this is Samsung’s first solar panel equipped offering, although it comes with a regular charger too. Also known as ‘Samsung Solar Guru’ in India, E1107 Crest is a solar powered basic mobile phone that is built on the ‘green’ concept and has finally lined itself in the array besides Nokia and Sony Ericsson which have also designed models on the ‘green’ earth concept; even if they are not Solar.
“The Crest Solar represents our effort and commitment to strengthen our leadership in the solar panel mobile market,” said Executive Vice President JK Shin, head of the Mobile Communication Division at Samsung Electronics.
Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd has made impressive claims that the E1107 can be brought back to life from a completely dead state with just 15 minutes in direct sunshine. Outside of optimum direct sunlight conditions the phone will still charge, although the speed of charging is reduced significantly; worst case scenario is reported by knowyourmobile.com as taking a lengthy 55 hours for a full charge in dull conditions.
The Crest E1107, for eco-friendly, budget conscious types that don’t seem to be concerned with practicality, apparently can generate enough power for 5-10 minutes of talk time with one hour of exposure to the sun. Not surprisingly, the additional features are basic: a 1.52inch screen with a CSTN display that offers 65K colors at 128×128 pixels, FM radio, MP3 ring tones, embedded games and a powerful torch light. For consumer safety, the phone offers Mobile Tracker, which automatically alerts when the SIM card is changed or sends out an SOS message in an emergency. The Crest Solar also has a fake call feature, so users can pretend they have an incoming call to escape unsafe situations.
The Crest Solar E1107 is headed for India, South East Asia, Europe, and Latin America and is reported to cost a very reasonable $59. And, to satisfy Crest Solar users in various markets, Samsung offers localized features for different countries. For instance, it offers profile screening for bikers in the Southeast Asian market that provides incoming call alerts only from selected contacts for safe riding. The Crest Solar also provides specialized features for different religions, such as alerts for prayer time. | 2019-04-19T02:22:01 | http://www.gsmmag.com/samsung-e1107-crest-solar-phone/ |

Description: A lot of Neopians would love to be a faerie. Koph would love to be anything BUT a faerie.
Description: One of the reasons most Neopians preferred the new portal system over sailing for traveling, Roxias decided, was that if they just transported themselves to another land they wouldn't have to worry about turning into petsicles while traveling during the winter.
Description: "I'll take the east wing. You check the west one," Roxias whispered. Scout nodded, and handed him something. He looked down and saw a garlic bulb necklace.
Description: "How long can it possibly take to agree on the price of a pizza?" wondered Roxias aloud. He looked over at Pizzaroo and shook his head. "They've been at this for ten minutes already!"
"We've got your Elbuort friend. If you want him to live, you will do exactly what we say."
Description: "We're supposed to job shadow someone for Career Week," announced Avatar Elbuort one evening at dinner.
Description: "TIME TRAVEL!" the woman screamed suddenly.
Description: "And yet Sophie doesn't think he's an evil wizard?!" muttered Scout, eyeing the landscape before her in disbelief. "Who else lives in a neohome like this?"
Description: "Well, it might involve the two of us--"
"Oh boy, here we go."
"--retrieving this artefact called the Mirror of Dartis from the tomb of Avaryss the Terrible."
Description: If Xin or one of his younger siblings brought up wanting to be a knight, he'd probably recommend them sticking to something less dangerous, like baking.
Description: "We're lost," declared Madge after the group had circled back to the same oasis for the third time.
Description: Hansuke had never seen such joy as that which lit up Fyora's face when she saw the Mirror. "You found it!"
Description: Next Roxias gazed at the lupess for a moment, his ears drooping slightly as he did. But then his ears, as well as his body, straightened up, and he carefully stowed the picture in the pocket of his tunic right over his heart. “I will make good, Mam. I promise.
Description: "Welcome to Max's Inn. How may I help you, sir or...or mentor...no, that not right...magistrate?...Macaulay...?"
Description: While lupes are much better at seeing in the dark than, say, a human, the jungle was still very dim for him, and he could hardly believe Scout could track anything in this darkness. "Are you sure you can see his tracks?"
Description: "While you're out, could you bring me a taco?" called Scout as the two hurried off. "Prison food is terrible- annnnd, they're gone."

Android phones are storming the gadget world and today we’ll reveal to you some of the best Android Kitkat phones under $200. There are extremely powerful flagship phones like the Samsung Galaxy S5 which you can opt for or you can even go for the budget friendly phones that are produced by Motorola and other manufacturers from around the world.
We value our consumers more than anyone else and we would never recommend you Chinese firms that produce such phones. All the phones mentioned here are from some of the most trusted brands in the world. Google initially launched the Android Kitkat version 4.4.3 last year which was followed up by some updates from the Tech giant. Check out the budget phones detailed below that involves all the recent updates and run a smooth with a crisp display.
Moto G is undoubtedly on top of our list and there are plenty of reasons for this. It is considered to be Motorola’s most successful production that comes with A 4.5 inch 720p HD display, 1.2 GHz processor, 8 GB internal storage and a 1GB RAM. The phone also comes with the latest Android Kitkat version and is also available in the 16GB variant.
The phone was initially launched at a price range of $179 but you can now find it for as low as $99 on Verizon or some other quality sites.
Another exceptional budget phone from Motorola is the Moto E that comes with features and designs that are similar to the Moto G. Unlike the Moto G, this device comes with a 4.3 inch screen that is not HD and the internal storage is also reduced to 4GB. However the camera and the quad core processor are are all the same. You can find this device for $130 on Amazon.
This device comes with a similar approach to the Motorola phones and can be best bought for a price of $179. The phones consist of a 4.7 inch HD display, 1.2 GHz processor, 1GB RAM and an 8 mega pixel camera.
Well although this may be Chinese but it does deserve a bit of attention. You can consider this to be the best on the list but since it is not a Motorola one we thought it would be inappropriate to put in on top. The phone comes with a 5inch 1280X720P HD display that is bound to give you a crisp and clear screen. With an internal storage of 16GB, this device is powered by a 1.2 GHz Media Tek processor and a 1GB RAM. It has a rear 13MP camera and a front 5MP camera. The 2,500 mAh battery makes it a powerful device.
However it runs an older version of Android i.e., 4.2 Jelly Bean but the Kitkat update is near.
You can get this device for $219 on Amazon.

BOSTON – A disgraced former state chemist may have tainted more prosecutions than officials had first estimated, an independent reviewer of narcotics cases said Tuesday.
More than 40,000 defendants may have been affected by the chemist's mishandling of samples, said David Meier, an attorney appointed by the Massachusetts governor to review prosecutions connected to the state lab scandal.
Meier, who led a file-by-file review of narcotics cases in which Annie Dookhan tested samples, said he'll meet with prosecutors, defense lawyers and judges to discuss how to best use the findings.
Authorities had previously estimated publicly that Dookhan had tested samples involving about 34,000 defendants.
They have alleged that Dookhan tampered with evidence and faked results during her nine years at the now-closed Boston lab. The 35-year-old Franklin resident has pleaded not guilty to a 27-count indictment related to her alleged wrongdoing in cases stemming from six counties.
Gov. Deval Patrick thanked Meier for his work to try to help resolve the legal morass.
"Now, with this detailed information, the many participants in the criminal justice system can do the work of getting each individual case right," Patrick said in a statement Tuesday.
Officials also said Tuesday that the state had spent $7.6 million to date in dealing with the crisis. The Legislature has authorized up to $30 million to cover costs incurred by the court system, prosecutors, public defenders and other state agencies.
A year ago, Patrick ordered the lab closed after state police took over the facility through a budget directive and uncovered what they called Dookhan's failure to follow testing protocols and her deliberate mishandling of evidence.
The scandal sent a ripple through the state's criminal justice system, exposing thousands of convictions to legal challenges.
Meier, who previously served as a prosecutor in Middlesex and Suffolk counties and is a partner at Boston law firm Todd & Weld, started his review by generating a list of 690 people in state prisons and 450 in county jails who were serving sentences based at least partly on Dookhan-related drug tests.
But the list didn't include thousands of people who were awaiting trial, were on probation or were serving federal sentences in cases that Dookhan tested samples.
Police arrested Dookhan last September, and a grand jury issued an indictment in December that charged her with crimes including obstruction of justice and perjury.
Her attorney filed a motion last week seeking to have statements she allegedly made to state police thrown out.
Dookhan said police didn't give her a Miranda warning while doing an interview at her home in which authorities have alleged that she admitted to wrongdoing that included making negative drug samples into positive ones and "dry labbing," or testing only some drug samples and assuming the rest were positive.
A state spokesman said last week that least 337 state prison inmates have been let out of custody as a result of the lab scandal, and the Massachusetts District Attorneys Association said at least 1,115 cases were dismissed or not prosecuted because of Dookhan's involvement or due to problems with producing documents because of the lab closure.
Court officials also set up drug lab court sessions that special magistrates have been presiding over to handle motions brought by defendants claiming to be wrongly incarcerated due to Dookhan's alleged misconduct. | 2019-04-21T22:57:29 | https://www.foxnews.com/us/more-cases-linked-to-massachusetts-lab-scandal-review-says |
FC Goa will look to exorcise the ghost of the ISL final when they open their Super Cup campaign against a challenging young Indian Arrows side in a round of 16 match, in Bhubaneshwar on Saturday.
Goa, who lost the ISL final to Bengaluru FC, will be eager to end the season with some silverware. On the other hand, the developmental side of All India Football Federation, Indian Arrows will be optimistic about their chances after an impressive show against Kerala Blasters in the qualifiers.
This is the first time Goa and Arrows face each other in a competitive game. The two sides had earlier met in a pre-season friendly when a late winner from Princeton Rebello helped Goa to a 2-1 win.
The I-League side is unbeaten in the last four games of the season and the youngsters will look to carry the momentum against the Gaurs.
“We are playing against one of the best attacking teams in the country. It is definitely going to be a tough game. However, we are one of the top three teams when it comes to form. So, we would like to take that momentum into the game and make it a good game for the spectators to enjoy,” Indian Arrows head coach, Floyd Pinto, said.
“It is going to be a good game because both teams don’t like to sit back.The team that makes the better decisions and the least mistakes will come out on top. We need to be the best that we can be on the pitch,” he added.
FC Goa’ head coach Sergio Lobera emphasised on the need to have the right attitude to achieve a good result.
Lobera also spoke about the absence of midfielder Ahmed Jahouh in tomorrow’s clash.
In the second match of the day, ISL side Delhi Dynamos and I-League giants East Bengal are scheduled to play but the Kolkata side has pulled out of the tournament.
East Bengal board members Thursday decided not to participate in the Super Cup holding firm to the alliance of eight revolting I-League clubs.
The eight clubs have decided to boycott the tournament because the AIFF has not addressed their grievances in the impending domestic restructuring.
However, Delhi Dynamos went ahead with the press conference on Friday.
“The Super Cup is a knockout tournament, it is a do or-die situation. So, we are taking it step-by-step. We have to first concentrate on the match against East Bengal,” assistant coach Mridul Banerjee said.
Despite a disappointing season where they finished eighth, Banerjee is hopeful of a strong run in the cup competition to salvage some pride for the club.
“We have a very good combination of local Indian and foreign players. But we were quite unfortunate. We created so many goal-scoring chances, but we were not able to convert it into goals.
“We worked a lot on that problem under the able guidance of our chief coach. We hope that with the Super Cup, we will cross that barrier. | 2019-04-18T12:37:47 | https://www.india.com/sports/super-cup-fc-goa-face-a-challenging-indian-arrows-test-3616046/ |

Well, back in high school, one of my best friends told me this story. It’s true because it happened to one of her close friends that went to a different high school in my hometown. This actually happened. This girl always babysat for this certain family in a nice, medium sized suburban neighborhood. The family had two kids; the little girl was six and the boy was eight. They lived in a nice, two story house. But there was something weird about the family. They loved dolls. They had a huge collection of dolls. Kind of weird, but you know. And so they had dolls displayed in cases and dolls sitting out.
One night, the parents go out to a dinner party, and this girl comes to baby-sit the children. She takes care of the kids, feeds them dinner, plays with them, and then puts them to bed upstairs. After that, she comes back downstairs and sits on the couch in the living room to start watching TV. But the whole doll thing is really creeping her out. She just doesn’t like the way they are sitting there and seem to be looking at her. But the one that was really bothering her was this big clown doll that was sitting on a rocking chair near the couch. She tries to just forget about it but she can’t. She feels a little dumb, but she decides to call the parents and ask them if she can put a blanket or sheet over this clown doll to cover it up.
The babysitter runs upstairs, wakes the kids, and brings them outside to her car, where she calls the police from her cell phone. When the police got to the house and searched it, they found that the clown doll was actually a schizophrenic midget that had been dressing up as a clown and living in the family’s house for the past week.
The parents reported to the police that for the past few days the children had been telling them that a clown ghost had been coming to visit them at night. The parents said they had just chalked it up to the kids’ runaway imaginations. | 2019-04-20T14:30:37 | https://brightkite.com/essay-on/the-clown-doll-an-urban-legend |

Advertising and Public Relations students ventured outside of the classroom for a week to partake in the annual Ad Club New York Trip. This yearly endeavor provides students the opportunity to network with industry professionals while learning about their future career.
During the trip, students had the opportunity to visit Publicis and Saatchi Saatchi, Significant Others, Wavemaker Global, VML, Y&R, McCann Worldwide, and EP & Co. Each of these companies provided students the chance to connect with UT alumni.
Additionally, students utilized free time to explore everything that New York has to offer. Visiting the New York Library, admiring the Empire State Building, attending the longest-running Broadway show, “The Phantom of the Opera,” and trying new restaurants ensured that students never had a dull moment.

Welcome back to Rocky Top!
The faculty and staff in the School of Advertising and Public Relations welcome you back for the spring 2019 semester.
We have a lot of exciting activities planned for the new year including the AdClub New York City trip, an internship and job fair, AdClub and PRSSA meetings, UT Social Media Week, and a three-day trip to Atlanta's top public relations and advertising organizations.

Finding the right career path as a college student is a tough journey and looks different for everyone. For Matt Myers, a senior studying advertising, his journey included attending the advertising trip to New York City.
The AdClub is a student-run organization that hosts an annual trip to New York City to provide students the opportunity to tour advertising agencies, network with industry professionals and explore the city. Myers decided to attend the trip to New York because he wanted to better understand agency life, build relationships with companies and decide if he truly desired to pursue an advertising career in New York after graduation.
One aspect of the New York trip that makes it unique to other university trips is the freedom offered to the students during their week in the city. Although there is a schedule to tour specific agencies, students are given the opportunity to explore New York throughout the day, try new restaurants, and interview with companies on their own. Myers spent his free time attending a Broadway show and interviewing for summer internships.
The New York trip gave Myers and many other students the clarity they were hoping to find. After graduating this spring, he hopes to move to New York and begin his career in agency life, specifically in entertainment marketing.
After 20 years at the University of Tennessee serving as a faculty member, associate dean in the College of Communication and Information and Vice Provost for Academic Affairs, Dr. Sally McMillan will serve as interim director of the School of Advertising and Public Relations starting on June 1, 2019.
McMillan did not always plan on pursuing a career in academics. After changing her major many times, McMillan graduated with a degree in English from Southern Adventist University and went on to teach high school students for two years. After realizing that teaching at a high school level was not her calling, she went on to work in book editing and receive a master’s degree in public relations from the University of Maryland. Later, she moved to Wisconsin with her husband where she was hired by a software development company. Starting in the public relations department, McMillan quickly moved up to vice president for sales and marketing and later president of the company. However, McMillan questioned whether she wanted to work in technology for the rest of her life.
Because she had enjoyed adjunct teaching at the college level and had a passion for research, she decided to attend the University of Oregon, where she received a doctorate in mass communication and society. Upon graduation, McMillan taught advertising at Boston University but quickly realized that she did not want to live in Boston forever and applied for a faculty position at the University of Tennessee. McMillan started as an assistant professor and taught for five years before being recruited to serve as the associate dean in the College of Communication and Information. Five years later, she was recruited to be Vice Provost for Academic Affairs where she focused on developing a strategic plan for undergraduate students.
McMillan took advantage of her time in an administrative role to create positive change for undergraduate students. She helped develop One Stop and uTrack and revised curriculum to make it easier for students to graduate on time. Her work, along with the work of many others is reflected in the fact that the four-year graduation rate increased by 22 percent in 10 years.
Throughout her many years as a communication practitioner, technology executive, professor, researcher, and administrator, McMillan’s list of achievements does not go unnoticed. This past October, McMillan was awarded Alumna of the Year by the Southern Adventist University Alumni Association for her outstanding professional contributions to the fields of education, administrative leadership, communication and research. McMillan plans to take her experience and love for students into her new role as interim director to continue leading the School of Advertising and Public Relations in the right direction. See more about her award here.
The School of Advertising and Public Relations is hiring an intern for the Spring 2019 semester. This is a paid internship for registered University of Tennessee students. Applications are due to adpr@utk.edu by November 5, 2018.
Located in the College of Communication and Information, the School of Advertising and Public Relations houses two fo the most popular majors at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. The Advertising and Public Relations programs offer Bachelor’s, Master’s and Doctoral degrees. The programs are nationally and internationally recognized and accredited for the quality of their scholarship and instruction.
Our program offers opportunities beyond the classroom that involve professional internships across the nation, study abroad in various countries, and school sponsored trips to network with industry leaders and alumni in New York, Nashville and Atlanta. With its nationally recognized educators and wide-ranging opportunities, the School of Advertising and Public Relations continues to be a program of excellence at the University of Tennessee, preparing students and scholars to become innovative leaders in their respective fields.
On October 10, the Howard Baker Center hosted the US senatorial debate between Representative Marsha Blackburn and former Governor Phil Bredesen. While the debate took place, the university’s Adam Brown Social Media Command Center provided live social media analysis of the sentiment of the debate.
Dr. Courtney Childers and Brandon Boatwright oversaw the social media analysis of the debate. Boatwright is a doctoral student in the College of Communication and Information and the assistant in residence of the Adam Brown Social Media Command Center (ABSMCC).
A career in academia and research was not on Brandon Boatwright’s radar when he majored in journalism as an undergraduate student at Clemson University. During the early years of his education, he had full intentions of becoming a sports writer. It wasn’t until an internship caused Boatwright to be working long hours and late nights that he realized sports journalism was not his passion.
When Boatwright decided to go back to Clemson for his master’s degree in communication, technology and society, he was given the opportunity to teach. “When I was in the classroom with the students, I realized this is where I want to be,” recalls Boatwright.
Research is one of the many hats Boatwright wears on campus. He spends a lot of his time supporting research of various faculty members. “The ADPR community is awesome because I get to work with people who are much smarter than me every single day,” states Boatwright. He specializes in research that focuses on how an organization takes a stand on controversial issues, its decision-making process and the implications for the publics they target.
Boatwright also spends a lot of his time working in the social media command center. After working in Clemson’s social media listening center, this role of various tasks is familiar to Boatwright. Depending on the day, Boatwright is either working on the ABSMCC blog, giving demonstrations about the software to various courses so they can incorporate it into the classroom, analyzing the sentiment of social media posts regarding current events or facilitating research for other faculty members in the college. “It is such a robust tool, and it’s so rewarding that I get to help students feel confident and competent while using it,” says Boatwright.
When students spend an entire semester working on a project, they long for their ideas to be utilized for a real organization. For Alexandria Dodson and her fellow group members, Kayley Green, Maci Mays, Madi Mayfield, Bridgette Givand, Madeleine Constantine, this dream became a reality.
Dodson is an alumna of the School of Advertising and Public Relations and graduated from the University of Tennessee in December of 2017. During her final semester at UT, Dodson completed Public Relations Campaigns, a course that brings together all the skills that public relations majors have learned over the years in order to create a campaign for a real client.
Dr. Courtney Childers taught campaigns that semester and was tasked with choosing the client. The campaigns professors are often approached by a local nonprofit or small business looking for new ways to improve its communication efforts. Dodson and her fellow classmates were presented with Girl Talk, Inc. as their client for the semester. Girl Talk is a local nonprofit, founded by UT alumna Denetria Moore, that exists to empower young women to become their best selves by reducing the likelihood of teen pregnancy and helping them to advance educationally.
After recently celebrating its 10th anniversary, Girl Talk was looking to expand in donations and volunteers in order to serve more girls in the community. After learning more about their client, the various campaign groups worked towards creating a campaign that would help Girl Talk reach multiple audiences.
While all of the groups created campaigns that would benefit the client, Dodson’s group went above and beyond. By taking the time to interview the parents of girls being assisted by Girl Talk and going to the school programs to interact with the girls, Dodson better understood the client’s needs.
Following the campaigns groups’ final presentations to the client, Girl Talk immediately began implementing Dodson’s ideas into their organization. “Their project was bold and really captured the mission and vision of Girl Talk. #SheCan summarizes why we do what we do,” said Moore.
This social media campaign continued to transform when Girl Talk presented its #SheCan 2018 Fashion Show Gala consisting of professional women and Girl Talk girls walking the runway with poise and confidence.
“It was so rewarding to see our ideas come to life. #SheCan is so much more than a hashtag. It is a movement to empower young women,” said Dodson.

On Friday, September 7 two alumni from the School of Advertising and Public Relations won awards at the UT Knoxville Alumni Board annual event.
Among them were: Chris Grabenstein (BS/JEM ’77 & an emeritus member of CCI’s Board of Visitors) received the Distinguished Alumnus Award and Erin Hauck (BS/AD '07) received the Alumni Promise Award.
With 12 years of dedication to the University of Tennessee and its students, Dr. Elizabeth Avery Foster has been promoted to Professor. With a desire to form meaningful student relationships while conducting public health research, Foster positively impacts the lives of all individuals she encounters.
Despite her new promotion, Foster did not always plan on pursuing a career in academia. Originally a marketing major, she decided to change her career path to public relations because she was more interested in managing relationships. Foster completed her undergraduate studies at the University of Georgia before going on to receive a master’s degree in communications at Wake Forest University. At this point in her education, Foster had full intentions of being a lobbyist in Washington D.C. due to her interest in public health. However, her plans began to transform when she was given the opportunity to teach and research during her graduate program. “I realized how much I loved getting to know the students and their unique personalities. It was so rewarding to teach them skills that I knew they would use in their careers,” said Foster.
She went on to complete her PhD in mass communications at the University of Georgia. “After graduating, I took my first job at UT, and the rest is history,” Foster jokingly recalled. While teaching at UT, Foster pursues her passion for public health by conducting research on a variety of topics, including Zika virus and the opioid epidemic. The university’s proximity to the health disparities in East Tennessee fuels Foster’s desire to make a change. “I have this sense of responsibility to make life better for those people. I love doing research that could make a social difference,” said Foster.
Although Foster has reached one of her biggest goals by being promoted to Professor, her work is not done. She plans to focus more of her energy on studying public health issues at a deeper and broader level with the hope that she will continue to use her platform to positively impact individuals around the world, while simultaneously inspiring this same passion for public relations within her students.
While working with ADPR, Cara plans to bring a positive and refreshing voice to various social media platforms. She hopes to utilize her personal connection to the program to create a meaningful presence on social media that encourages ADPR students to engage and enjoy.

Laura Gamo was born in Colombia and moved with her family to Florida when she was six. After receiving her bachelor’s degree from the University of North Carolina in 2016, she started her master’s studies in UT’s School of Advertising and Public Relations as the graduate assistant to the Chancellor's Honors Program. Laura received an award from the Sammie Lynn Puett Endowment in Public Relations.
“I am finding my truth through words,” says Gamo. “As a woman of color and an immigrant to this country, I’ve become a unique hybrid as a student, an individual, and a professional. Having struggled to learn a new language and integrate myself into a host culture, I know the value of communicating with others and expressing ideas. More importantly, I recognize the need to empower and activate the voices of those who might be underrepresented or misunderstood."
In 2017, Gamo was selected from candidates across the country for a Multicultural Advertising Intern Program (MAIP) fellowship by the American Association of Advertising Agencies. In addition to her full-time paid summer internship at R/GA in New York City, she participated in a virtual training series and in weekly agency-sponsored professional development workshops focused on the host agencies’ culture, work, skills, and expertise. As of January 2018, she is a public relations intern at The Tombras Group in Knoxville.

Each spring, when Advertising students are awarded the Carol Poston Scholarship they gain something much more valuable than a scholarship. They gain a lifelong mentor.
CCI BOV member Carol Poston (AD ’81) is committed to paying forward all of the support and professional development she gained while at UT. Carol is the Senior Manager of Strategic Marketing Services at LifePoint Health in Brentwood, Tennessee.
“I had a great experience in the Department of Advertising, and I am proud to help anyone who is graduating from UT,” said Poston. | 2019-04-19T04:54:50 | https://adpr.cci.utk.edu/cmst-news |
Toronto Maple Leafs defenceman Roman Polak has been suspended two games for boarding Columbus Blue Jackets forward Oliver Bjorkstrand. The suspension was announced Thursday by the NHL’s Department of Player Safety.
The incident took place in the third period of Wednesday’s game between the Blue Jackets and Maple Leafs. Polak was handed a five-minute major for boarding and a game misconduct.
The suspension is Polak’s first and he’ll forfeit about $25,000 in salary.
The suspension means that Toronto will have to look to some depth players, which puts them in a unique spot in a season that has come without heavy costs to the lineup. The Maple Leafs have, after all, only lost 101 man games to injury this year.
Defenceman Alexey Marchenko will be the guy to replace Polak for those two games. He had a kick at the can when Connor Carrick was injured, but his spot was relinquished when the blueliner returned to full health.
Marchenko’s insertion to the lineup comes at a time when coach Mike Babcock has been juggling defensive pairings, sometimes mid-game and sometimes mid-shift.
Missing Polak for two games, then, might not do too much to the overall flow of things and it might even give Babcock a chance to try out some new looks.
30-year-old Polak has eight points in 67 games this season.
In 626 games with the Maple Leafs, San Jose Sharks and St. Louis Blues, he has 112 points – including 23 goals and 89 assists. | 2019-04-25T16:07:30 | https://news.hockeydraft.ca/2017/03/23/torontos-polak-suspended-two-games/ |
Surfboards have a very complex shape since they are made to be hydrodynamic objects. To understand the anatomy of a surfboard there are some parts that make it the best possible tool for gliding through the waves. Whether it is a 4-foot surfboard or a 13 feet paddle-board, the complexity is the same.
Surfboards have certain terms for each part, just like a human body, you will learn the anatomy of a surfboard. We start with the top of the board is the nose, then moving down to the rails, the fins, the tail, the leash, and so on.
Because a surfboards has numerous forces coming at them, they have a different shape depending on the wave and wind conditions. The core materials that are used to shape a surfboard but also evolved with time and technology are wood, foam, and fiberglass or epoxy. Nowadays, there is even more high-tech surfboards too; like the hydrofoil where the anatomy of a surfboard like this one would change on the fins.
As a shaper, a blank piece of foam can be transformed into a perfect brand new surfboard in a couple of hours or days. The shaper works on that one piece to have a perfect buoyancy, gravity, drag, and lift. All surfboards shaped can be either custom made or not and then bought by the perfect person to fit that surfboard. A surfboard will fit somebody the right way depending on the height, and weight of the surfer, as well as the conditions, being surfed in. It also varies in length, width, thickness, and so much more comes into it as you progress through the years of surfing.
As a result of different conditions, surfers, and waves; there are 7 common surfboard types; shortboards, longboards, fish boards, guns, Malibu, soft surfboards, and stand up paddle boards.
All surfboards, no matter the shapes have all the same features and anatomy. So let’s take a look at the main parts and design of a surfboard.
1 Nose. This is the front of the surfboard. The first 12 inches. The tip of the surfboard. It has a huge influence on paddling and maneuverability. It is also shaped higher on some surfboards but not all to give it a little bit more space between the water and the surfboard. It can be shaped wide or narrow depending on the surfer surfing it.
2 Tail. This is the back of the surfboard. The last 12 inches. The tail has a big influence on speed and maneuverability. It can be shaped very narrow and very wide depending on the surfboard and surfer.
3 Rails. The rails are the two sides of the surfboard. They are round edges. This is where you will grab your surfboard when carrying it. This is also where it has the thickness of the surfboard.
4 Stringer. The wooden strip in the middle of the surfboard going from the nose to the tail. It is placed right at the center of the surfboard and is vertical. The stringer increases strength and reduces unwanted flexibility on the surfboard.
5 Deck. The top surface of the surfboard. It is flat. This is where the surfer stands on their board and the place that is typically being waxed.
6 Bottom. This area is the bottom of the surfboard. It touches and rests on the water when surfing.
7 Fins Plug. These are located in the bottom tail of the surfboard. They are usually two holes for each surfboard or one big slice of a hole. These holes are shaped differently based on which kind of fin setup the shaper is using and also which brand fin setup the shaper is using.
8 Leash Plug. This is a small hole that is placed on the tail of the surfboard, it contains a metal bar where the leash rope will fit through.
Outline. The overall shape of the surfboard. This is just the whole surfboard.
Foil. The rate of a surfboard’s thickness from the nose to the tail.
Rocker. The amount of curve from the nose to the tail of the surfboard. You will see that rocker when looking down the surfboard. The rocker depends on the surfboard and what is being achieved with it by the surfer.
Concave. The contour on the bottom of the surfboard to channel water. The concave is the space where water travels from nose to tail of the surfboard.
Now let’s talk about a couple things that the surfboard would need to be able to get started and head out in the water.
Fins. The fins are a huge part of a surfboard. You install the fins in the fin plugs. They are considered the wheels of a surfboard. They are placed at the bottom tail part of the surfboard and are big on stabilizing the surfboards movement. They prevent the board from sliding sideways and help in direction, drive, and control. There are 5 different fin setups: single fins, twin fin, thrusters, quad, and five fins setup. They are also 3 main brands of those fins: FCS, FCSII, and Future Fins. Fins can be removed and put back on unless you have a very old surfboard that has glass on fins. But in today’s world, all shapers make the fins removable.
Leash. The leash is a rope that connects the surfboard and the surfer together. The leash is installed in the leash plug at the tail end of the surfboard. The leash is for the safety of the surfer not getting hurt or having to swim when falling off the surfboard. It also made so that the surfboard does not go all the way down to the shore hitting other surfers.
Traction Pad. The traction pad is located in the tail end of the surfboard, very close to the leash and leash plug. It is made so that the surfer has a really great grip to prevent falling off the surfboard. The traction pad is mainly for the back foot only depending on your surfing stance.
Wax. We put wax on the deck of the surfboard so that the surfboard has more a grip. Just like the traction pad, but up the deck for your front foot. Surfers wax their surfboard usually before every surf session to make sure the wipeouts are prevented as much as possible.
Last but not least, a surfboard is tridimensional and is categorized by three main points. All of these characteristics are different for the surfer, and the wave conditions that it is being surfed in.
The length of the surfboard. This is the measurement in feet and inches from tail to nose.
Width. This is how wide the surfboard is. It is measured from rail to rail in inches at its wide points.
Thickness. Measurement from the deck to the bottom at its thickest points. Also measured in inches. The thickness has a big impact on the buoyancy of the surfboard.
Now that you all the terms for the anatomy of a surfboard, it is time for you to get that surfboard and revised all of them. It is very important to know them all so that you can relate when somebody else talks about it. Also, when starting out, always buy or rent a bigger surfboard. Do not try to surf on a shortboard like the pros do. We all started somewhere and that is on a longboard or soft surfboard, so go ahead and grab one of those for yourself.
Did you just buy a surfboard or need a new traction pad?! Well today, we’re going to go over how to install and remove a surfboard’s traction pad so that you guys know how to do both when time comes to use it. Installing and removing a stomp pad is not hard at all, however, it is very tedious and time-consuming. So make sure you have enough time to spare to get the work done the right way.
To install a traction pad; it is fairly easy. You just need a new stomp pad and your surfboard. Remove the pad out of the plastic and glue it to the end of your surfboard where you put your back foot. To remove a traction pad; it can be a little tricky. You need to get some hot water, some acetone, and some strength. Just peel out the old pad using hot water, and pour acetone on the glue to get it all out. You need to make sure the glue is completely off to put a new traction pad eventually.
It is always fun to get new equipment, it makes it exciting and something to look forward to. A traction pad is probably, what I think, a very very important tool to have on your surfboard. It makes your back foot stay in place with the extra grip it offers. It also tells you where your back foot should be placed. And after all, it looks AWESOME! The board is not so naked anymore, it’s like a piece of clothing for a surfboard.
How to remove a traction pad is a question we get quite often when somebody just purchased a new surfboard. And honestly, not a lot of people out there teaching how to remove a stomp pad the right way! There is plenty of different ways to remove a traction pad, such as using a razor blade and so on, but we’d rather not use a blade so that we do not cut into the fiberglass so instead we use our strength, hot water, and acetone if needed.
The idea of removing a stomp pad is to peel off the traction pad completely and then get the glue off completely as well (this part is important so that you can put a new one in eventually).
Pour some hot water on the traction pad. That will make the material softer and easy to peel off.
Peel off the traction pad as much as possible. In reality, you want to peel it off all the way. Your stomp pad might come out as a whole or in little pieces like mine. If it comes out as little pieces, stay patient and peel it all off. I know this step might be tedious and time-consuming, but it is all worth it in the end. * If you need help getting the stomp pad corner off, use the wax comb to help you elevate that, and then peel off the pieces.
Once the WHOLE traction pad is off. You will notice there is glue where the pad used to be. The glue needs to be removed completely so you can install a new stomp pad with new glue.
To remove the glue off the surfboard, you can either get it out by rubbing your fingers on it and making a ball of glue, you can also get an eraser and get it off like that. But what we found was easier is using acetone on a towel or paper towel and rubbing the glue off with the acetone. It just makes it easier, but there is no easy way to do this either, you just need to rub the glue off all the way till there’s no more.
Now rinse your surfboard with water, to get all the leftover glue, stomp pad pieces, and acetone that are just hanging there.
Dry your surfboard off with a cloth.
Check if it is ALL removed. If it’s not getting it all out. If it is you are DONE!
Congratulations! You just removed your first ever traction pad off a surfboard!
Now that your old traction pad is off your surfboard, it is time to install a new one on there! This is the best part, you worked hard to remove the old pad that was on there and now the new stomp pad you just bought finally gets to go on your surfboard. It’s going to make it look sick and brand new! Adding new tools to my surfboards is my favorite thing to do so this is very exciting for me to teach you!
Before you start you need to figure if your new stomp pad is a 1 piece, 2 pieces, 3 pieces, 4 pieces, or more. For mine, it is a one piece (easiest to put on since you don’t have to calculate and align all of the other pieces together). If you are still debating on which stomp pad to buy, get a one piece for sure!
Your surfboard. All clean, free of glue, and dry.
To install a traction pad, it is really easy, all you need to do is do it slowly and be very careful on how to are putting it, if it is straight or not. Just little things like that will make it that much better when installing a traction pad on a surfboard.
Take the stomp pad off the plastic. But do not remove the paper glued to the back of it just yet.
Put it on your surfboard just to see where you want to install your new traction pad. I usually put the curved part of the traction pad where the plug for my leash is, it makes the stomp pad circle around the leash and usually is where we put our back foot when surfing. The sticker is still not out of the traction pad, it is just to see where you want it.
If you want it just like us and most surfers as close as possible to the leash plug, put it there.
Now that you like it where it is. Remove the protecting film one step at a time. As you are sticking the back of the stomp pad, and slowly moving forward, you are also pulling the paper off the glue as you are moving up. Do that very slowly all the way till the end.
Push down your new traction pad so that it sticks very well. Push down for a while and all over the place. Leave it untouched for at least 24hours, and to make it better you can always put a bunch of books or something heavy on it so that the traction pad that sticks on and lasts for a long time.
If you are not happy with the place and position it’s now in. You can pull it out and readjust it. Don’t do that too often though, it will get the glue used and won’t stick as good after that.
* If you bought a multiple piece traction pad, put it on the surfboard without removing the protecting film. And then remove the protecting film on the biggest piece first which is usually the middle part and then got down to the smallest which are the side pieces. When you do that, you can leave the other unglued pieces on the surfboard to help you see where to glue them exactly. Remember start in the middle, and then work your way to the sides and smaller pieces of the traction pad.
There you have it, surfers! We have explained and taught you how to remove and install a traction pad on a surfboard. It is pretty easy if you follow the instructions step by step and you will be completely fine and happy! Also if you would rather follow an instructional video on how to remove and install a traction pad, you can do that too! On our Surf Training Factory YouTube channel or the click the links above. Stomp pad can be so beautiful and make the surfboard look great so let’s get it and enjoy your next surf session out there!

Is a Carver Skateboard worth it for surf training?
Carvers skateboards bring a new dimension to skateboarding and surfing. While carver skateboards can be more expensive than their traditional counterparts, they offer a ton of advantages over the rest. In fact, carver skateboards allow you to surf the land. That is, the experience is so much similar to what you get on the waves.
The mechanism in Carver skateboards is somehow different from that of other skateboards. They are designed specially to mimic the fluid movement you experience will riding the waves on a surfboard.
All those impressive maneuvers you can do on the waves can also be reproduced on land using a carver skateboard. You can carve, pump the board to increase your speed, and glide like you would do if you were riding a surfboard. While this beautiful experience is rewarding in its own right, a carver skateboard offers additional benefits of helping you improve your maneuvers and increase balance before heading for the waves.
And the most exciting part of using carver skateboards is that the activity works the same muscle groups that are used during actual surfing, significantly boosting your form and technique. If you aim to improve your surfing game, there is no better way to get it right on land than carver skateboards. Truly, they are the real deal.
If you want to develop top turns, bottom turns, and improve your cutbacks; carver skateboards make these easier than any other skateboards as they allow you practice with sharper turns and greater speeds.
No matter your level of expertise in the sport of surfing, carver skateboards are perfect for improving your technique from beginner to pro level. It allows you to experiment with new maneuvers, increase your speed and correct your posture and form so you can perform better while in the water. Whether on the pavement or a skating ground, carver skateboards are an excellent way to take your surfing experience to the next level.
All of the skateboards listed above will always help you improve your surfing skills in and out of the water. Whichever one you pick, make sure it is the right size for you depending on your height and surfing stance. Here you can learn more about surfing step by step if you need to figure out your stance. so it can be the best skateboards for surf training for your body, as well as what you are trying to accomplish with a skateboard for surf training.
The Republic of El Salvador in Central America is surrounded by Guatemala and Honduras on the continental side, but it is the Pacific Ocean with its perfect beaches that call out to tourists from all over the world and others looking for the best surf beaches in El Salvador. With many different breaks, you can find the best surf beaches in El Salvador like Sunzal, La Bocana, El Zonte, Las Flores, Punta Roca, Punta Mango, K-59, and K-61.
The country is the most populated area on the continent, and the language of choice is Spanish. El Salvador is affectionately referred to as ‘Pulgarcito de America’ or the ‘Tom Thumb of the Americas’ due to its size and location. Crisscrossed with two parallel mountain ranges and about three hundred rivers, the area is dotted with lakes enclosed by the volcanic craters.
But it is the Pacific lowlands in the coastal areas that are the main attraction in the country due to the best surf beaches in El Salvador. Almost all the waves are all rights and a point break. The two world class waves in the country- Punta Roca and the Punta Mango which are gaining traction for more experienced surfers from all over the world.
There are different kind of waves you can choose from at the El Salvador coast, based on your experience level for surfing. While the Punta Roca and the Punta Mango waves pose challenges to the most experienced surfers, gentle waves like the El Zonte and Sunzal are viable options for beginners. The gentle waves with lesser swell, especially during low tide, can offer a great option for beginners who wish to take action into the world of surfing for the very first time.
While the country of El Salvador offers a wide variety of easy and difficult waves to surf, the best course for a beginner on the Pacific would be the east coast of the country. The beaches here are not steep, sandy bottom, and the area is safe. One of the main beaches in the area is Las Flores and there are many attractions around, including the Mangrove forests 3 km away. The volcano of Conchagua and the Lake of Algeria are other exotic locations you can check out on your trip to the east coast.
The El Zonte wave in the El Tunco Area is also a great place to start for tourists interested in having their first surfing experience. The waves are gentle and easy to handle and the warm community of locals can help you find your balance if you do not manage to find a surfing instructor. There will always be a local that is willing to teach you how to progress in your surfing skills for a small fee.
Almost the entire coast of the country faces the south which makes the south and south-western swells best suited for surfing. The waves are most consistent during the monsoon months of May to October, whereas March and April have great waves too with less rainfall.
The El Tunco area is a half an hour drive away from the airport in the capital city San Salvador and has everything that you may possibly need to set out on your surfing journey across the country. From a wide array of surf shops where you can buy your surf essentials, to bars, restaurants and cheap places to stay makes El Tunco one of the main tourist attractions. The best waves in El Tunco that are pretty close to each other are Sunzal, La Bocana waves, El Zonte, K-59 and K-61waves are not very far off. K59 and K-61 are actually a paddle away from each other depending on the mood you are in. It would be a straight shot with no obstacles in your way.
Sunzal is a relatively gentle depending on the swell size. You can surf a Sunzal head high wave as a beginner without a problem. Make sure that you do know how to swim well because if your leash breaks, you will have a nice, long swim back to shore. So stay on the inside if you are a little worried. This right point break can get heavy with more water flowing through. Paddle out to the right of the Kayu Resort to stay away from a rip current that will be the longest treadmill ride ever.
La Bocana is known as a left wave but is a workable right as well. Most ride the lefts and the rights are regularly open for surfing. So expect for this wave to regularly A-Frame and know that this wave is for experienced surfers since it is faster and has good air section. Both waves are particularly busy in the morning hours between 6 am to 8 am and also during sunset. It is better to surf this at mid-tide since it will give it more push.
The surrounding area of El Tunco is home to K-59 a beautiful right point break with some rocks but with a sandy bottom. As it sounds, K-59 is off of the main road on Kilometre 59 and it can get tricky to get there, so get a guide or really good instructions. There are locals there often selling snacks, water, coconut water and other pastries. You can stay at a hotel right in front of Sunzals right point break and then drive to K-59.
K-61 is an ever-changing wave that is really epic when the right swell is on. This right point break is crumbly, smooth to surf and on a normal day is pretty empty with no one around. You access K-61 the same way that you access K-59 so it is very convenient and awesome to have sick uncrowded beaches.
Mizata is a pretty uninhabited place with perfect breaks crashing over cobblestones and it is probably the second most consistent wave in El Salvador. It is a further drive about 40 minutes away. Since there really isn’t anything else for you to do there other than sleep, your time will be spent well in the water surfing great waves.
El Zonte is the easiest among the other three, not as fast and good for beginners. Although is it gets too big it might not be a good wave for beginners. This wave is located in a beautiful location with little restaurants and many local artists. It is a good idea to mingle with the local surf instructors to make it easier on catching some waves. There are a lot of boogie boarders and they catch the waves ahead of everyone so be careful dropping in. This break can be fun in small or large swells with some waves getting hollow. The best swell for this location would be a South, South West direction.
To many experienced surfers, this is the best wave. The right at Punta Roca is a world class wave that is hollow and can go up to 300 yards depending on the swell on a set wave. Surfers compare the way it breaks to Jeffreys Bay in South Africa. There is definitely more surfers in the water here and beginners should stay away from this break although there are days a beginner can come and surf the inside which is called La Paz. You want to make sure that you do not have sensitive feet since there are many rocks to walk on before getting in the water. Also, do not come alone, bring a local that can guide you to the lineup. The Women’s 6th Qualifying Round in Surfing was done on the Punta Roca wave.
A sleepy beach of exceptional beauty, this is an amazing getaway spot at El Salvador where you can find some little hotels and even camp out. This sweet right point break that has a hollow outside section with long rides down the line. Best tide to surf is low tide with east winds and you definitely will not be surfing here alone since many have found out about this break. You still will not find as many people as you would in Sunzal, La Libertad area. Make sure that you are a good paddler and are ready to defeat the initial rip current. There are other breaks around, each of these waves have a big swell, but it is suitable for beginners during low tide. El Toro and La Vaca are two breaks towards the North which are also right hand points.
This is another famous wave of El Salvador that attracts surfers to the shores of this country. A short boat ride away from the coast, this is a dream wave for surfers that works up to 10-12 feet with plenty of barrels. Punta Mango is a true surfers’ paradise that works at any tide and its best with a South, Southwest swell. There are sand and rocks at the bottom, so it is better for intermediate to advanced surfers. Not many tourists are attracted to the Punta Mango area unless they are exclusively looking for a surfing experience. The wave poses a challenge to the most experienced surfers in the world.
In the El Tunco area the La Sambra Hostel provides a good place to stay for backpackers. The Esymar Beach House will be of interest to those willing to rent a space. The Sunzalito Hotel is meant for tourists visiting with family and is the conventional tourist lodging in the area.
The AST Surf Hotel and the Punta Roca Surf Resort offer great places to stay after the daily surfing is done in the Punta Roca area.
It is best to stay at Last Flores and not at El Cuco when surfing in that particular area. The Rancho Mama Cata is right on the beach where you can stay for cheap. For a luxury living, the Las Flores Resort and the Mira Flores are promising choices. Another AST Surf Hotel and a Punta Flores Surf Hotel are also great choices for accommodation.
The cheapest accommodation at Punta Mango is the Rancho Mango but the conditions of stay are not that great. Hotel Los Mangos offers comfortable and a luxurious stay with a pool that rivals the beach itself.
When you want to surf Sunzal en La Bocana you can stay at Kayu Resort for a more upscale stay that has a refreshing swimming pool, and 2 spots where you can eat located in the hotel. With super friendly surf instructors and surfboard rentals, this is a must. Directly next to Kayu is Sunzal Reef Hotel. This hotel is way cheaper and very simple compared to Kayu. Most people that just come to surf stay at Sunzal Reef over Kayu. But if you come with your wife and kids, you would rather stay at Kayu.
Surfing in itself is an active way to explore the beautiful beaches and the coastline of the small country of El Salvador. While it may also be a great spot for sightseeing, being a geographical goldmine of volcanic craters and lakes, the more active approach of adventure is encouraged while on tour to understand the true essence of the country. Even for those who have never surfed before, El Salvador offers a way to gently embark on great adventures with surfboards and instructors ready and waiting. | 2019-04-22T12:54:49 | https://surftrainingfactory.com/author/salome-abeger/page/4/ |

TST's Coverage of The 6th Annual TriStateTuners Spring Meet, benefiting Make-A-Wish!
The 6th Annual TriStateTuners Spring Meet, benefiting Make-A-Wish, was a huge success despite being held at an all new location at Warminster Community Park, and having to be held on the rain date.
Thanks to huge support from participants and our sponsors, we saw over 2,000 cars throughout the day with an estimated 3,000+ people in attendance in total.
Although the final numbers are still trickling in, we were able to raise over $12,000 that will be donated in full to The Make A Wish Foundation of Greater PA!
This is a great opportunity to thank all of our sponsors who support this event and our community as a whole, and play a major role in raising the money that we do each year at The Spring Meet.
We also had many generous raffle donors who helped us add to our total donation. For a list of all of these sponsors plus all of our raffle donors, please visit our website at www.tstspringmeet.com.
Thank you to everyone who came out and found a way to donate, whether it was with a VIP Reserved Parking spot, buying an event tshirt or TST merchandise, buying raffle tickets, or buying food at the event... all of these things contributed to our donation totals!
We're looking forward to next year where we have the challenge of making the event even bigger and better, and trying to top our donations from this year. Thanks again to everyone who came out for a great event!
will it be held in warminster again this year?
Please go back to Morgantown..
Im 99.9999% sure it will never be at a Sonic Restaurant in the future. There are too many headaches on all sides of the logistics in trying to get it to legitimately work at a public food and retail venue. Its quite a challenge just getting everything to come together at the Warminster Public Park.
Hopefully we will be hearing something on its return this spring in the next few weeks....??
I'm pretty upset about that. The warminster place is a nightmare for traffic and the way it hasto be set up you have people wwalking through lines of car rubbing against them leaning on them its a disaster. You have one small VIP area and portapotties and roach coaches. Morgantown was the whole reason people went the had dunkin doughnuts and every type of food you could want and real bathrooms. Like I said before its its in warminster again this year I am staying home and I know all my friends are. | 2019-04-19T15:35:57 | http://www.tristatetuners.com/forum/showthread.php?s=e899c32b99e1e687efbec464e3345dd0&t=125449 |

When you are cladding any surface with brick slips you may have external 90 degree angles on the project such as a return around or a wall or window reveal and even on the outside of a fire place, brick slip corners also know as corner pistols allow you to complete a professional and tidy finish that will look like full size conventional bricks have been used.
Generally when you use a corner slip it will be identical in colour, shape, texture and size of flats pieces although some builders and tilers will add character to a wall by using a contrasting brick such a red flat slip with a cream or grey corner pistol. They are also used for making arches over doorways and above inglenook fireplaces as they are light in weight and can go around curves quite easily. | 2019-04-23T18:50:00 | https://www.thinbrick.co.uk/blog/archives/08-2016 |
With the all new PSS4000, Pilz Australia have launched a solution for all machine automation control and safety functions including motion control, diagnostics and visualisation. The primary aim of PSS 4000 is to simplify the decentralisation of control functions and reduce engineering work through the PAS4000 (Pilz Automation Suite), a new software platform which plays a key role in the system. It enables users to retain a centralised perspective of decentralised, distributed control structures. The PSS4000 automation system can be used across a whole range of industries for applications of any size.
With the PSS4000 automation system, Pilz Australia can provide solutions that comprise safety and standard control technology. The PSS4000 is designed as an automation system for all industries: for mechanical engineering and the manufacturing sector alike. It is a system that is easy to operate and considers the requirements for safety of man and machine from the outset.
PSS4000 provides users the benefits of a decentralised control structure, without the increasing complexity normally involved. There are no interface problems associated with the connection of multiple control systems. When identical control programmes and sub-functions are used decentralisation can help to achieve a higher level of reusability and increase the level of standardisation. This in turn allows for a modular structure, so that identical components can be reused with minimum effort. The benefits can be seen in greater availability, due to local error reactions, and higher productivity as a result of shorter reaction times across the whole system.
The PAS4000 software platform is used for all programming and parameter setting functions that are fully compatible with standard data and user interfaces. This makes it easier to start working with or upgrade to PAS4000 and also help to avoid multiple entries. This minimises the error sources which are often associated with manual data entry. PAS4000 offers established programming languages in accordance with IEC61131-3. Pilz Australia have also developed the easy-to-use configuration tool for the PNOZmulti safety system and PASmulti, which provides its own editor and is user-friendly.
Component-oriented programming is a key aspect of the PAS4000 software platform. Tested software blocks for common functions are available in a library, which can be expanded as necessary. An added new feature is the ability to expand this library with the customised components. The benefit can be seen in the high reusability of pre-defined functions and the reduced programming and engineering work. Working with components means that programming can be separated from the hardware design, so that projects can be processed in parallel. Once the machine functions have been standardised by creating components within libraries, it is simple to design the overall structure of the machine a user wish to build, based on initial information. The detailed function can be determined later.
With PAS4000 software platform, standard control functions and, for the first time safety functions too, can be completely created and managed symbolically. This mapping will be extended to the hardware at a later stage. All SafetyNET p devices will have direct access to this system-wide mapping table. The benefit is greater flexibility when implementing an application. This will have a positive impact not only during commissioning but also when changes are made later, because there will be no need to change the wiring. Neither will there be any problem exchanging hardware. Symbolic descriptions and addressing of periphery signals, programmes and devices can be implemented across the board. Self-explanatory descriptions make it easier to find the way round the plant or machine when programming and during subsequent service functions.
The PSS4000 automation system is based on the PSSuniversal decentralised I/O system. Head modules in various performance ratings have been developed in the PSS4000's first expansion phase. These are available for all safety-related and standard control functions. Connection to real-time Ethernet SafetyNET p is always a permanent component. SafetyNET p is used to network all the control components and it transfers safety-related and non-safety-related data, as well as data for diagnostics, visualisation and motion control.
The PSS4000 automation system is an alternative to system solutions. When the PSS4000 was developed, the specific needs of safety technology were considered from the outset. The focus was on user-friendliness, high flexibility and universal support for the user during the whole engineering process. With PSS4000, automation functions in the areas of safety and standard can be easily implemented across a whole range of industries from small to medium-sized machinery, right through to large-scale plants. | 2019-04-19T15:21:20 | http://www.ferret.com.au/c/Pilz-Australia/PSS4000-automation-suite-with-SafetyNET-p-devices-available-from-Pilz-Australia-n840244 |

cookie_on_fire (Vor 3 Jahren) #5588684I wonder how you're supposed to fit the ax into her hand? I saw that the handle for mine was a bit crooked, so I tried to see if the handle part comes off, but it snapped off ._.
So I guess that means no.
Did you figure out how to get the axe into her hand?
Her fingers are soft enough so that you can push the red portion of the handle into her palm. The handle itself does not detach.
For sale, $70 + shipping. Opened, but good condition. Original box great condition. PM if interested. Pics uploaded.

Elijah Jordan Wood ( born January 28, 1981) is an American actor. He made his film debut with a minor part in Back to the Future Part II (1989), then landed a succession of larger roles that made him a critically acclaimed child actor by age 9. He is best known for his high-profile role as Frodo Baggins in Peter Jackson's critically acclaimed The Lord of the Rings trilogy. Since then, he has resisted typecasting by choosing varied roles in critically acclaimed films such as Bobby, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Sin City, Green Street and Everything Is Illuminated. He starred in the film Day Zero (2007) and provided the voice of the main character, Mumble, in the award-winning animated film Happy Feet. He played an American tourist turned vampire in Paris, je t'aime. In 2005, he started his own record label, Simian Records. He was cast in the lead role of an Iggy Pop biopic to be called The Passenger, but after years of development, the project now appears to be shelved.

Your home must be the safest possible place to have your family all the time. Whenever you leave, your home should remain secure until you return. You can find some great advice concerning the safety of your home in this article.
The only time you should give out house keys to house cleaners is if you absolutely trust them. You need to ensure that they are honest and reputable according to references before you have handed over the key. Do a background check on them. If you’re hiring from a company, call the BBB for more information.
Buy a safe to keep all of your valuables in one place at home. You would hate for your expensive jewelry, personal family belongings, etc. to be stolen in case a burglar breaks into your home. Keep it hidden in a hard to find location.
When you set out to purchase home security equipment, remember to comparison shop. Prices can be very different from one product to another. Look at a number of different companies and get at least three quotes before selecting what you feel is the ideal plan for your home.
Do not open your door for people you do not know. People you do not know could have bad intentions or want to get an idea of how many valuable objects you own. Only open the door for people you are expecting.
Request information from your local law enforcement agencies about home protection packages. Many have quite a few helpful programs that you take, like on self-defense or other things related to your home. Get in touch today.
An extremely important tactic for keeping your home safe is changing out the locks. It might be that you have an angry ex-roommate or a bitter ex-partner, so changed locks will boost your security. Most locksmiths can accomplish the job within 24 hours.
Regardless of how long you think you’ll be gone, make sure to lock your doors. It may be a little surprising, but most burglaries and break-ins happen because the intruder just walks right through an open door. A thief can steal lots of stuff in a little amount of time.
Do not choose a home alarm system that monitors only your doors. All of your windows are possible entry points for a thief too. Have alarms installed for each window and any other entry point. You want the best security possible for your family.
If you install a security system, make certain to hide the wires well. An intruder can cut the wires or disconnect them and avoid the system. Instead, make sure the wires are hidden. This will add security.
Here you have been given an abundance of good advice. How will you apply it? Learning all you can about home security will enable you to protect both your possessions and your family. | 2019-04-24T06:35:01 | http://inovapcd.com/home-security-information-you-will-benefit-from-knowing/ |

DETROIT (2006-07-14) -- The Cadillac SRX crossover, critically acclaimed for its innovative design in one of the industry’s hottest new segments, now borrows a page from Cadillac’s rich and elegant past. The 2007 Cadillac SRX, launching in August, debuts a redesigned, hand-crafted luxury interior, bringing elegant Cadillac tradition into the modern world of the crossover vehicle.
The new SRX cabin utilizes Cadillac’s new “cut-and-sew� interior process that combines advanced technology with the hand-rendered precision of expert craftsmen. Coverings for components such as the instrument panel, center console and door trim are cut, sewn and wrapped mostly by hand. This enables details such as decorative French stitching, and the near elimination of gaps and seams for a superbly tailored appearance. This is the same painstaking process applied to Cadillac’s limited-production STS-V and XLR-V models, bringing old-world craftsmanship into the heart of the luxury marketplace.
The 2007 SRX’s redesigned cabin is more inviting and luxurious, with softer surfaces, new flush mounted switches and controls, and enhanced storage. The streamlined new design features a clever “hidden� storage compartment on the passenger side of the instrument panel. The wood trim on the passenger side deploys to reveal a surprisingly wide added storage bin above the existing glove box.
Another example of the detailed execution of SRX interior is also found on the passenger side of the instrument panel. The now-universal use of front air bags on new vehicles normally requires a visible “door� or opening in the dash. The hand assembly of SRX’s instrument panel enables the passenger front air bag to be invisibly concealed. Craftsmen use a technique called “skiving� to carve tiny perforations into the reverse side of the material, through which the air bag can deploy. This eliminates the conventional plastic cover and the corresponding gaps seen on nearly all other vehicles.
The wood trim on SRX envelops the cockpit, starting on the rear doors and continuing to the front doors and through the instrument panel. The optional trim uses a particularly rich authentic wood called Sapele Pommele. Sapele (sa-pell-i) is an exotic wood from East Africa , rarely used on luxury cars, more often favored by makers of fine home furnishings and high-end acoustic guitars.
SRX’s in-vehicle electronics and entertainment also receive a major enhancement for 2007. The renowned Bose 5.1 Cabin Surround ™ digital audio system is available as an option for the first time on SRX. The previous Bose system that had been optional now becomes standard. Also, SRX will offer a “theater� package consisting of Bose ™ 5.1 Cabin Surround ™ , DVD navigation and rear seat DVD entertainment. The audio system now also features an auxiliary port for connecting MP3 devices such as an IPod.
Named Car and Driver magazine's Best Luxury SUV for an unprecedented third consecutive year, the SRX luxury crossover delivers outstanding performance. The standard 3.6-liter V6 delivers good acceleration and fuel economy. The 2007 model also adds a six-speed automatic transmission (Northstar V8 models only) and a new Sport model. The Sport model includes a fresh exterior look with body-colored front and rear fascias and optional 18- or 20-inch wheels. The 20-inch wheels are the largest offered on any luxury crossover vehicle.

Founded in 1908, GM today employs about 327,000 people around the world. With its headquarters in Detroit , GM has manufacturing operations in 33 countries .

Round 1 – Western Bulldogs v Sydney: Almost, but we left it too late.
It is never easy writing after a loss, but at least we’re not the only ones lamenting our team’s average performance this weekend. Upsets have abounded and predictions for the remainder of 2019 have been penned, but these Round 1 results will most likely have no real bearing on September ladder positions. Or so I hope.
I can’t tell you how much I’ve looked forward to this game. And not just for the obvious reasons.
All of us footy lovers have endured six months of deprivation, starting off with the dreaded October – that month in the year when we go through the whole gamut of emotions surrounding our footy addiction: the highs from the victories, and the lows from the heartbreaking losses – especially in September. It is all-encompassing. Then our six-month ritual and devotion to our team is suddenly severed, and an almighty halt is forced upon us, whether we like it or not.
Adjustment and perspective are certainly required.
November heralds new adventures, and before we know it the cricketers are on our shores and our footy heroes have faded into a warm, fuzzy memory. Christmas, a new year, family holidays, back to our daily rituals, and suddenly March has arrived. We’re six months older and footy is now back in focus.
My hiatus these past months took a slightly different and unexpected turn, and at one stage I wondered whether I’d even make it to this game at all. Illness can play havoc with our plans.
As I lay in hospital before Christmas, one of my main incentives (apart from getting well again) was to be able to get to Melbourne to watch my beloved team play this first game of the year. I simply had to be there. I was determined, no matter what.
Adjustment was necessary. Change was needed. Challenges were aplenty. Perspective, on the other hand, was easy. Perspective is always easy. All I had to do was look around me at those terminally ill people in the hospital beds next to me, read the newspapers, watch the news, hear the stories of people and their suffering the world over, and perspective wins outright – every single time. Especially recently, with the atrocities in New Zealand still lingering.
Sitting at Etihad before the game, waiting for the boys to run out, my fantasies get the better of me. I’m rejoicing that I’ve actually made it down to Melbourne and to the game, and I feel optimistic that our current group of players will defy the now common perception outside the walls of our red and white family that the Swans will collapse this year. I also realise that footy adjustment is necessary. Our team, the fourth youngest squad in the AFL this year, have certainly made their changes. One of my very favourite players, Dan Hannebery, has gone; Gary Rohan has gone; the inspirational Alex Johnson has gone; and Towers, Foote, Newman, Robinson, Marsh and Brown have all played their last game for the Bloods.
On the brighter side, the new young boys from the Draft are ready to prove themselves; Dan Menzel will hopefully overcome his injury issues; Jackson Thurlow and Ryan Clarke will prove that Kinear Beetson is still the best in the business; Sam Reid will, surely, shine this year; Tom McCartin will build on his promise in 2018; Callum Mills, Sam Naismith and Lewis Melican will be fighting fit again, and those young guns Ben Ronke, Ollie Forent, Will Hayward and Ryley Stoddart will show us just how good they are. I’m also hoping Colin O’Riordan, James Rose and Jordan Dawson get more senior game time. And let’s not forget Nick Blakey – what a phenomenal player he promises to be.
Our experienced players will bind us together, and boasting the best forward in the business – the one and only Buddy – maybe we can prove to all how wrong their doom and gloom predictions are.
There was no way a Swans team was going to continue in that vein for the rest of the game. We fight back and we pride ourselves on that Bloods’ spirit, and that’s exactly what the boys did.
With only 1.5 on the board at half time and trailing by 33 points, we suddenly come to life, with goals to Blakey, Reid, Mills and Heywood, not only reducing the deficit, but giving Swans’ fans some hope.
The last quarter has the heart racing for the first time. Some brilliant play by Buddy sees Reid kick truly, followed by him dropping a mark close to goal, retrieving it and getting it to Heeney for his second. Papley adds another. Nick Blakey drops a sitter then regathers and kicks beautifully to Buddy on his own 20 metres out. We’re four points away from a miraculous win, but alas, the Dogs kick their only two for the term, and it’s all over.
Our fightback was courageous, but we left it too late. Good wins involve four quarters of footy, and we didn’t manage that on Saturday night.
With noticeable absentees Dan Menzel, Sam Naismith, Nick Smith, Ben Ronke and Kieren Jack all missing from this week’s game – the latter two excelling in the Reserves on the weekend – let’s hope some of them will return soon, and that we learn from our mistakes this weekend and turn in a blinder next Friday against the Crows.
Which brings me back to adjustment and perspective.
Heading back to Sydney on Sunday, my thoughts turn to not only my team and what they need to do to get back on track, but what I need to do in this year of challenge and change. After 20 years in Sydney, enjoying all its beauty – to say nothing of my beloved team’s success – Marshall and I are heading back to my place of birth, Melbourne. We’ll arrive down south just in time for the Carlton game at Etihad in two weeks, and have organised trips to all Sydney and interstate games for the remainder of the year. Hopefully we can continue to hold our Sydney and Melbourne memberships for as long as we’re able, travel when required, and continue to bathe ourselves in red and white glory until our dying days.
So glad you made it to the first game Jan. I was wondering how you were going health-wise more than anything and you have given us an update in your report.
As usual you have shown your dedication and loyalty to your beloved Swans while I squibbed it living only 250 ks from the action. I bunkered down with everything crossed hoping for a Bulldog’s win and then in true Bulldog’s supporter style, hoped we at least didn’t get thrashed.
With Buddy being available along with Sam Reid who usually stars against us, I was worried. When Heeney took that mark in the first five minutes I feared the worst. Even with the decent buffer on the scoreline, I knew it needed to be more when the Swans surged, but luckily we’ve found some more goal-kickers.
Best of luck with your shift to Melbourne. Albert Park would be nice not far from the Lakeside Oval.
Your regular readers have a hint of the weight behind your words and wish you the greatest good fortune.
Yes, we made it to the game, Neil, despite me still being a bit crook. These auto immune illnesses just hang around! We’ll be looking for a place to buy after we get down south on April 4, hopefully in South Melbourne/Albert Park area. Like to be close to the beach, even though Sydney beaches have spoilt us!
Your boys were just too good for us on Saturday night, Neil. Hard to know whether it was more about the Dogs’ good game or the lack of anything much from the Swans. Round 1 often throws up strange happenings.

When people tell me they didn’t like Rome, it’s like they told me they don’t like sunsets or puppies or Elvis Costello. Sure on the cuddly scale, Rome is less puppy and more Costello, but like the musician, Rome has a large body of work that encompasses a wide variety of eras over a long period of time.
Where else can you be walking down the street and look up from a fantastic pair of shoes only to see a two thousand year old structure just standing there like it’s no big thing? WHERE ELSE? OK, sure, perhaps, Turkey, Greece, Israel, and a few other places. But where else are you going to also eat a two hour lunch with some of the best wine in the world for a fraction of the price? Where else are you just going to stumble upon the ruins of Largo Argentina, just sitting in the middle of the city, and find out it’s not just an ancient temple, but also a present day cat sanctuary?
No matter where else I go in the country I always return to Rome. And each time I go I discover a new attraction that delights me and fills me with wonder. Rome is like a piñata and there’s still plenty of candy left to fall out.
I should say here that The Boot Camp is not a travel guide per se. These are just places I’ve been that I can personally recommend. It’s the places I tell friends when they ask, “What should we see?” So there will be many more hotels and restaurants and things to see in all of Italy that I can’t possibly know anything about, many of which I’m sure are wonderful and I’ve been missing out on all of these years. Likewise, your mileage may vary. You may not be as excited by my favorite places, some of which it’s been a few years since I stayed there so they may be different now for better or for worse. If you want to see something more up to date, start a kickstarter to fund my travel guide.
I prefer to stay in the centro storico, the old city. There you’re walking distance to all the major attractions as well as great restaurants, cafes and bars. Rome is an incredibly walkable city. You can have breakfast at the Pantheon, walk through Largo Argentina and the Jewish quarter, across the river to Trastevere, eat lunch, and then keep going down the river to the Vatican or up the Janiculum Hill if you’re so inclined.
Across the Tiber, walking up to The Janiculum Hill.
However if budget or other needs must, there are great places to stay all over the city: apartments for rent, fantastic Air BnB experiences, and other hotels that may offer more modern conveniences than the ones built into several hundred year old buildings.
In Piazza al Pantheon, I’ve always enjoyed the Sole Al Pantheon.
The rooms vary as do the rates, but if you’re looking for a splurge, there is a suite with a window overlooking all of the Piazza with a terrific view of the Pantheon.
Last summer I got a fantastic last minute deal at the Pantheon Royal Suite. The rooms are quite small, but nice, with robes and Molton Brown toiletries. Also, the bed is motorized to lift up, revealing a Jacuzzi underneath. Where else are you going to see that?
Both locations can be noisy as they’re right in the middle of a square with cafes serving until late. But you’re on vacation and you only live once: go be part of that noise.
I’ve also stayed in Campo di Fiori at Hotel Lunetta, which, like the Pantheon Royal Suite, has a spa in the hotel. The Lunetta has a roof top bar which is a great place to stop by on your way out or make it the last stop before you go back to your room. It’s on a side street off the Campo, so my experience was that it was less noisy that my stays near the Pantheon.
Years ago we also stayed at Hotel Smeraldo, which was a fantastic location and very affordable.
I’ve got a list of great restaurants and fun places to drink, but if you want someone to do all the planning for you DEFINITELY check out Marco Lori’s wine and food pairing class. He’s a dear friend and master sommelier and offers a 6 course meal with wine pairings that is the best deal in all of Rome! Plus you can learn something to bring back to your own dinner parties so you can always have a little Italy with you!
Don’t leave Rome without ordering Cacio e Pepe somewhere and if you see fried zucchini flowers (especially if they’re stuffed with ricotta) get them. The Italians do fried food like no one else. It is very lightly battered and fried, not dunked in batter and then served up like a heart attack. Also, get the potatoes. Something about Italian potatoes….they’re just roasted in olive oil, salt and pepper, that’s all, but I can’t make them taste like that in my kitchen at home no matter how hard I try.
One of our favorites in Rome is Ditirambo, right in Camp di Fiori. Get the truffle potatoes!
Gusto near the Piazza del Poppolo has a pizzeria, a wine bar and a fancier osteria. The pizzeria is known for their fried vegetables and zucchini flowers which my husband has been talking about being the best he’s ever had for the last 3 years. And the enoteca around the back serves wine by the glass if you’re looking for a mid afternoon break. Wines by the glass have traditionally been harder to come by, unless you just want the house wine, which isn’t always so great. But they have a wonderful selection here.
There’s another great wine bar in Campo di Fiori called Rosciolo. It’s not right in the square, but on a side street. They also sell gourmet food items like aged balsamic vinegar and truffle salts and do tastings of cheeses and meats, as well.
Aroma was a great place for drinks, with a patio that overlooked the Colosseum and was a great place to watch the sunset as the night lights came on around it. Unfortunately, now that side is reserved for the restaurant. The food there was very good, too, but it was on the expensive side and fancier than you get at most Italian restaurants. Which is fine, but not why I go to Italy. I liked it better than my husband. Aroma is also a 5-10 minute walk to Fori Imperiali if you want to go for a drink before eating there.
Now that you’re fed and rested it’s time to actually see the two thousand years of history I’ve been going on about.
The Colosseum and forum are must sees, but I think it helps to have a guide point out what you’re looking at and tell you the history. The ruins being ruins, it’s hard to tell your rostrum from your Temple of the Vestal Virgins.The Husband is a huge ancient history enthusiast; he actually studied Latin. He used this company and loved the tour, which had a grad student or Phd as his guide.
Even if you decide not to do the tour, look into getting tickets online ahead of time. And there’s always an audio guide.
We both really enjoyed it. It’s on the smaller, more manageable side so you’re not overwhelmed with gallery after gallery that you feel you have to get through and appreciate even though you have jet lag. It has a ton of Bernini sculptures that are really amazing to look at up close. We were in awe of the detail and texture he was able to put into the marble, like the way a hand presses into the flesh and makes it dimple.
This is an interesting museum with more ancient artifacts not too far from the Colosseum. I don’t think you need to be worried about tickets ahead of time and it could be a great alternative if there’s bad weather and you don’t want to be outside in the rain or cold.
A very large hand & a very jet lagged me at the Capitoline.
I’m going to say something really controversial here: skip the Vatican. Look, if it’s your second or third time or you have 5 days or like you’re super Catholic, then by all means go. But I don’t recommend the Vatican museum. It’s crowded and the tours are inefficient and chaotic and overpriced. Our tour guide went so quickly and so far ahead that she lost us and several others and this was the tour that came recommended. And they will tell you that you have to cover your knees and your shoulders and men can’t wear pants and you will show up in the dead of summer wearing pants with shoulders covered only to be surrounded by a sea of people wearing shorts!
Instead I would recommend taking a lovely walk through the Jewish ghetto, across the bridge to Trastevere, have lunch, and then keep going along the river to St. Peter’s Square and seeing the gigantic plaza that is the Vatican before walking back across the river to the Ara Pacis or the Villa Borghese.
This place is great and totally flies under the radar. It’s all frescoes, mosaics, coins and sculpture from ancient Rome and in remarkably good condition. Very un-crowded the day we went and the ticket also gets you into the Baths of Dioclesian and a church across the street. No need to buy tickets ahead of time or anything.
This is church near Piazza Navona with 3 Caravaggio paintings inside, just hanging there. Just walk right in! Another great alternative if all you have the bandwidth for that day is 3 paintings and a glass of wine near the fountains in the Piazza.
This is the home of an ancient Roman altar dedicated to the Goddess of Peace. It’s a gorgeous sculpture made out of marble, and situated in a light filled modern building. Another great thing to look at when you don’t have the bandwidth for observing ALL of ancient history in day. The basement is also gallery space. The day we were there it featured an exhibit on Roman food that was the perfect length. We came. We saw some beauty. We learned some things. And then we went to Gusto for a drink. Perfect Italian afternoon.
Lastly, I’ve never done this food tour, but a friend of mine just did the Trastevere twilight tour and raved about it. | 2019-04-20T00:40:29 | https://tessrafferty.com/2016/01/26/travel-rome/ |

New to Python? or already dancing some tango with it and you feel it’s time to dabble into some framework magic for web?
In this tutorial, I will be showing you how to get your first Django website up and running. Before we start, we need to have Python downloaded and installed on our System, to download and install python, click here .
Note: You need to already have a basic understanding of python, also I’ll be running this tutorial on a Linux based system, so most commands would follow suite the linux way. But there will be little or no difference on most.
To exit, type in ctrl + z.
Next thing we need to do, is set up our virtual environment, a virtual environment helps you run several versions of python/django right on your machine (e.g you could have two different python/django projects running on different versions, to avoid them clashing and to give you room to run them both without errors, the virtual environment comes to your rescue. One virtual environment = one python/django version).It’s strongly advised to always use a virtual environment.
Note: env_name should be replaced with the preferred name of your environment. (I like to name my environments with the django version installed in it for easier recognition).
Using ==1.8 only gives a direction to django about the particular version you want to install, in this case version 1.8. To just go ahead and download the latest version, input pip install django .
Note: project_name = name of your project . In this case, we’ll work with mask_off as our project name.
1) the init.py helps python treat the directories as containing packages; so as to prevent directories with a common name, from unintentionally hiding valid modules that occur later (deeper) on the module search path.In most cases, it’s usually an empty file.
2) The settings.py file contains all settings your project requires, as we progress, we’ll visit this file often.
3) The WSGI (Web Server Gateway Interface) acts as the interface our web server uses to interact with our web application. Read more about it here.
Migrations helps us make changes to our database schema without losing any data, each time we create a new model or make changes to a current one and run migrations, it helps update our database tables with the schemas without having to go through all the stress of dragging and recreating the database ourselves.
Yaah! our very own webpage.
Now we have our server running and a ‘webpage’ , but django takes pleasure in reminding us we still have a lot of work to do before we can proudly call this a webpage.
The second part of this tutorial would contain; Creating a new app in our project, working with Urls, Templates, Creating views and Linking pages. For now, take out more time to go through the steps again and again to become more familiar with them. Only practice makes perfect!
Thanks for the tutorial, Ada! I'll definitely try it this weekend.
There seems to be a lost link here.
Its great, well explained. Looking forward for next tutorial on creating a new app.
I have never worked in Django, but this tutorial and you are my go-to if I find myself in that world.
Hi Jeff, great observation, would def. follow that method in my next articles. Thanks! | 2019-04-20T12:33:52 | https://practicaldev-herokuapp-com.global.ssl.fastly.net/kolokodess/getting-started-with-django |

Doll clothes are fun and easy to make up. They don't take long and every little girl has a favorite doll.
The doll may be a Barbie Doll, American Girl Doll or a Baby Doll. I have three granddaughters so just about any type of clothing for the dolls is always appreciated.
They are just like little people and anything we ware can be made up in miniature for them. Knitting, crocheting or sewing these doll clothes and accessories are so much fun.
They say the best things in life are free. That is certainly true when it comes to being able to find great doll clothes patterns. Such as the baby doll and fashion dolls patterns shown here and absolutely free.
One of the things that makes free fashion doll patterns such a great deal is the fact that almost everyone knows at least one little girl who loves playing dress up with their Barbie or any other doll.
Playing dress up means having clothes for the doll to wear and lots of them. However, the price of those little bits of material and yarn when purchased in a store makes most parents and grand parents hesitate. However, free patterns means you can make Barbie and her friends clothing for little or no cost.
Now, if you are looking for a variety of free patterns check out the ones listed here. Using an array of yarns, you can turn simple and casual into elegant and formal. Be creative using different yarns and textures, beads and notions. You will be amazed at how these few things can add a whole new look to an outfit.
You can change the dresses easily, which can be shortened into a sheath dress or lengthen into a gown. Mix patterns and styles, have fun with colors to make these many patterns personal.
These are all versatile outfits that can be used for casual business wear or a day out. You little girl will love taking all of her doll friends and the new outfits to play. You don't need to spend a great deal on yarn. Use left over yarn from other projects, I never throw away an ounce or more of yarn.
You will find more patterns are added regularly, so do check back often. | 2019-04-26T11:58:19 | https://www.knitting-n-crochet.com/doll-clothes.html |

The debut LP ‚Concrete Compositions’ portrays Chronsky’s musical output from the past year and follows on seamlessly to his proceding EP. MPC driven beats, analoguesk samples and live recorded drums, trombone, bass and keys are the main ingredients of this record. The style range is broad and goes from nu jazz, soul and breakbeat to hip hop, but always with the certain lovely sound colour of an oldschool prodcution approach.
‚,I like making music and cooking food. That keeps my soul in balance.’’ This is a quote from Chronsky himself and keeping your soul in balance, is exactly what this 14 tracker is all about. It’s about to make moves on the dancefloor on a saturday night as well as on the couch on a sunday afternoon chillout. Get groovy, you will love this record! | 2019-04-22T16:12:09 | http://tiefparterrerecords.com/chris-chronsky-comcrete-compositions/ |
History is etched in every corner of the city of Chennai. While the city was the seat of power for many South Indian kingdoms through the ages, the documented history of the city began in the colonial times when the British stepped on the shores of Chennai and settled with the establishment of Fort St. George in 1644. Chennai played a theatre of battle between the British, and the French colonial forces and also the kingdom of Mysore. Subsequently, by the late eighteenth century, the city became a major naval port and a powerful administrative centre. After independence, Chennai became the obvious choice for the capital of Madras presidency.
Today, Chennai is the largest city in the southern state of Tamil Nadu, and located on the south-eastern Coromandel Coast off the Bay of Bengal, this vibrant metropolis serves as a gateway to the culture of South India. The city is a major hub of cultural, commercial and education in South India. The city of Chennai has also been endowed with the rich heritage of art and culture. Carnatic Music and Bharatanatyam are two of the best and biggest cultural exports of Chennai or broadly, the Tamil culture. The annual cultural event of Madras Music Season, where respected artistes pour in from all over the city to perform, is a chance when you can soak in the absolute magic of rich musical heritage of South India. Besides, the city offers a kaleidoscopic view to the rich South Indian drama, architecture, sculpture, arts and crafts.
Although the capital is predominantly composed of Tamil speaking people, yet the city pulsates with its cosmopolitan nature as inhabitants from all around the country as well as the world making it a vibrant place. In terms of art and culture, Chennai does not fall behind. The city has been blessed with the wealth of arts and literature. It is famous for its various cultural events, showcasing the performing arts such as Dance, Music and Drama at its best. Tamil literature is very rich in content and preaches ancient morals and values. Chennai is also popular for the glitz and glamour of Kollywood, the Tamil film industry. Many Tamil films have won acclaim in the international film festivals and have brought laurels to India.
In terms of economy and infrastructure, the city has gone through a tremendous change and is developing rapidly. There are a number of industries here such as automobile, technology, hardware manufacturing, and healthcare industries. The Automobile industry in Madras is one of the leading industries in the country. It is also the second largest exporter of Information Technology and Business Process Outsourcing after Bangalore. Apart from this, the city is a leading player in the fields of education and sports. There are a number of reputed educational institutions and stadiums here which mark the significance of the two in Chennai.
The city today is abuzz and alive with its varied mix of modern and traditional blend of culture and lifestyle. With the spread of globalization the city has also transformed economically and culturally, giving the city a distinct character. However, the humility and embracing attitude of the locals still remains unchanged and this is the charm that works to steal a visitor heart and leave him/her humbled with the urge to come back again.
Summer: 43 - 39 C.
Winter: 37 - 32 C.
Chennai is one of the four major international airports of India. The Kamaraj Domestic Airport and the Anna International Airport are located at Tirusulam, 7kms south of Chennai.

(Reuters) – Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc (CMG.N) has hired Brian Niccol, known for bringing “Doritos Locos Tacos” and mobile ordering to Taco Bell, as its next chief executive to turnaround the once red-hot burrito chain that has been battered by food safety lapses.
Shares of Denver, Colorado-based Chipotle were up 11.8 percent at $281.03 in extended trading, still less than half their $742 high set in 2015, before sales-crushing E.coli, Salmonella and norovirus outbreaks sickened hundreds of U.S. customers.
Niccol, 43 and head of Yum Brand’s Taco Bell since 2015, on March 5 will replace Chipotle founder Steve Ells, who built the chain on the idea that food could be both healthy and fast but failed to nail the operational prowess needed to guide it through several health scares.
While Chipotle excelled by promoting organic produce and antibiotic-free meat to distance itself from fast food, Niccol used feisty marketing and unusual food creations, such as the Doritos tacos and Nacho Fries, to excite customers. He also took aim at Chipotle’s customers, starting a higher-end Cantina chain and launching a healthier Cantina menu at Taco Bell.
Neil Saunders, managing director of GlobalData Retail, said Niccol’s operational discipline and creativity would be good for Chipotle, but not a guarantee of success.
“Chipotle still hasn’t recovered from its health scares and has a lot of work to do to rebuild confidence. The menu and concept are tired and customers are less enthusiastic about the brand than they once were. On top of all of this, there is a lot more value-focused competition in the market,” he said.
Taco Bell’s turnaround began under the leadership of Greg Creed, who is now CEO of the fast-food chain’s parent company, Yum Brands, and continued under Niccol, who joined the chain in 2011 as chief marketing and innovation officer, was president from 2013 to 2014 and became its CEO in 2015.
In 18 of the past 20 quarters, Taco Bell has reported growing sales at established U.S. restaurants – better than many of its rivals, including McDonald’s Corp (MCD.N) and Chipotle, said Maxim Group analyst Stephen Anderson. It also outpaced Yum chains Pizza Hut and KFC in same-store sales for 2016 and 2017.
Part of the success is attributed to mastering mobile ordering and launching breakfast, and Niccol in a statement referred to using menu innovations and digital communications at Chipotle.
Still, Chipotle cannot simply repeat the Taco Bell formula with better ingredients. Its assembly line food preparation style prevents it from doing a mix of high- and low-priced offerings that appeal to a broad range of diners, Mizuho restaurant analyst Jeremy Scott said.
It likely could add nachos and new beverages, including margaritas, with minimal disruption, but breakfast would be a heavier lift since workers use the morning hours to prepare food for the day ahead, said Scott, who expects more executive changes at Chipotle and restaurant franchising over time.
Ells said in November he would step aside after failing for two years to rescue the burrito chain’s sales and reputation, and he told investors recently he would not get in the way of a new CEO.
“His expertise in digital technologies, restaurant operations and branding make him a perfect fit for Chipotle,” Ells said in a statement announcing Niccol’s appointment.
Chipotle shares through Tuesday’s close had fallen 13 percent in 2018, adding to a 23.4 percent drop last year. That compares with a 22.8 percent gain in the S&P 500 Restaurants sub index <.SPLRCREST > in 2017.
Ells became sole CEO after co-CEO Monty Moran departed in December 2016, under pressure from hedge fund manager William Ackman, whose Pershing Square Capital Management LP is Chipotle’s largest investor with a 10 percent stake.
On Tuesday afternoon, Ackman’s team cheered the move, describing Niccol as their first choice.
“He is the right leader to reinvigorate the company and help it achieve its enormous potential,” said Francis McGill, a Pershing Square spokesman.
Ackman has been telling his own investors that Chipotle has enormous potential by innovating its menu and improving customers’ digital experience.
Last year Chipotle ranked among Ackman’s biggest losers and his Pershing Square Holdings fund lost 4 percent, the third straight year of declines. | 2019-04-25T04:59:17 | https://www.todaytells.com/chipotle-turns-to-taco-bells-doritos-locos-chief-as-new-ceo/ |

LuBara Dixon "Dickey" Simpkins (born April 6, 1972 in Washington, DC) is an American former professional basketball player best known for his tenure with the Chicago Bulls in the late 1990s. He is currently a scout for the Charlotte Bobcats.
A 6' 9" forward/center, Simpkins starred at Friendly High School (Maryland) and Providence College before being selected by the Bulls with the 21st pick in the 1994 NBA Draft. Caught behind Luc Longley, Bill Wennington, and later Dennis Rodman in the Bulls' playing rotation, he saw limited action in his first few seasons as a Bull, scoring just 513 points in 167 games.
Here are some character traits from Dickey Simpkins's birth chart. This description is far from being comprehensive but it can shed light on his/her personality, which is still interesting for professional astrologers or astrology lovers.
In a matter of minutes, you can get at your email address your astrological portrait (approximately 32 pages), a much more comprehensive report than this portrait of Dickey Simpkins.
Warning: when the birth time is unknown, which is the case for Dickey Simpkins, a few paragraphs become irrelevant; distributions in hemispheres and quadrants are meaningless, so are dominant houses and houses' accentuations. Therefore, some chapters are removed from this part.
Cheers for communication and mobility, Dickey Simpkins! The predominance of Air signs in your chart favours and amplifies your taste for relations and for all kinds of short trips, whether real (travels) or symbolic (new ideas, mind speculations). You gain in flexibility and adaptability what you lose in self-assertion or in pragmatism.
Dickey Simpkins, Fire is dominant in your natal chart and endows you with intuition, energy, courage, self-confidence, and enthusiasm! You are inclined to be passionate, you assert your willpower, you move forward, and come hell or high water, you achieve your dreams and your goals. The relative weakness of this element is the difficulty to step back or a kind of boldness that may prompt you to do foolish things.
Dickey Simpkins, the Cardinal mode is dominant here and indicates a predisposition to action, and more exactly, to impulsion and to undertake: you are very keen to implement the plans you have in mind, to get things going and to create them. This is the most important aspect that inspires enthusiasm and adrenalin in you, without which you can grow weary rapidly. You are individualistic (maybe too much?) and assertive. You let others strengthen and improve the constructions which you built with fervour.
The three most important planets in your chart are Saturn, Mars and Mercury.
In your natal chart, the three most important signs - according to criteria mentioned above - are in decreasing order of strength Gemini, Aries and Capricorn. In general, these signs are important because your Ascendant or your Sun is located there. But this is not always the case: there may be a cluster of planets, or a planet may be near an angle other than the Midheaven or Ascendant. It may also be because two or three planets are considered to be very active because they form numerous aspects from these signs.
After this paragraph about dominant planets, of Dickey Simpkins, here are the character traits that you must read more carefully than the previous texts since they are very specific: the texts about dominant planets only give background information about the personality and remain quite general: they emphasize or, on the contrary, mitigate different particularities or facets of a personality. A human being is a complex whole and only bodies of texts can attempt to successfully figure out all the finer points.
Your sensitivity is withdrawn, Dickey Simpkins: more than anyone, you tend to lock yourself in your ivory tower, as you are aware of a kind of superiority that may be real, though overrated. Your moods are not perceptible because you control them with a tight fist. It is difficult to know if you are happy or upset because you show nothing. You avoid situations which compel you to reveal your emotions because you are not demonstrative. Please, be aware that it is not your amorous behaviour that is being analyzed, but the daily expression of your sensitivity. You dread the crowd and you need calm, and even solitude, to feel comfortable. You are well-equipped to remain balanced in all circumstances, but it may prove beneficial if you progressively take a relaxed attitude and show more dedication, as you are worth it; it is easier for you to exteriorize your feelings when your projects or your ambitions justify that you do so. You do not practice gratuitous outpourings, particularly when your are with a group, because you are afraid to open up, as if you were on the defensive, without any reason most of the times.
What is it, that really appeals to you, Dickey Simpkins, to love or to please? You have so much charm and so much volubility that you easily manage to be what is known as a lady-killer. Feelings and intellect are so tightly mingled that you may not know any more whether you are really in love or whether you are acting. You have a taste for flirt and variety, and you appreciate very much complicated situations where no one knows where the truth lies any more. You shift from one game to another. To you, everything can be an agent for seduction, be it your attitudes, your words or the way you dress. You do not separate your actions from your desire to please. People who do not understand this are in trouble because, if they take your sweet and well-phrased speeches too literally, they are likely to undergo cruel disappointments: for you, it is only a matter of living in the moment and you never commit yourself because, above all, you loathe confinement, even just its thought.
Dickey Simpkins, your mental activity is exuberant. Ideas are buzzing at high speed and you have the ability to think of several different things and to simultaneously process them. You are less interested in actions on the concrete or physical plane, because once you “see” a solution, its implementation is not that important any more since the crucial thing is that your mind remains bubbling with excitement. You are cerebral and curious and your sexuality is filled with fantasies, where pleasant ideas are mixed up with amplifying and enriching desires. Therefore, you are not simple but if your partner follows you, the stake is really worth it. Verbal jousting, the pleasure to debate and to discuss are continuous, with you. The only danger is to irritate people who may not have your swiftness or your sense of humour.
This text is only an excerpt from of Dickey Simpkins's portrait. We hope that it will arouse your curiosity, and that it will prompt you to deepen your knowledge of astrology, as well as to visit and use the wide range of free applications at www.astrotheme.com.
Your Life Path is influenced by the Master Number 11, Dickey, which indicates a strong, demanding, and uncompromising destiny. It is all about revelation and early calling. You feel that you are entrusted with a mission, with the certainty that no setback could endanger it, and your own certitudes prevail over any other motivation. You have a lot of strength, and sometime, intransigence. Short-lived fashions and life vagaries cannot weaken your beliefs. You pursue a set direction, in quest of an extraordinary destiny, with the help of your intelligence, your inspiration and the natural influence you have over people. Even though your entourage may not always understand your secret determination and perceive you mainly as an impatient person, your fortitude overcomes many a doubt and obstacle. You can sacrifice everything for the sake of your deep aspirations. | 2019-04-22T18:24:02 | https://www.astrotheme.com/astrology/Dickey_Simpkins |

On the 9thof April, NET attends a meeting in Brussels to discuss the use of recycled plastic material in so-called "UN packaging". The meeting: "CEN / ISO reactivated Target group Plastics" is arranged at BVI. NET is the only representative from the Nordic countries. Here, the different possibilities and solutions for certification of UN packaging produced wholly or partly by recycled material and the different challenges that arise from this type of production will be discussed.
NET wishes in advance of this meeting input from our customers. If this is of interest to you or your organization please send us an e-mail with your concern/ questions and we will take it with us to the meeting and inform you about the status afterwards.
NET wish to be the first test institute in the Nordic region to obtain certification of UN packaging on the recycled plastic material, which is in correlation with the regulations as defined in ADR. We are already in discussion with raw material suppliers and several of our plastic customers about how this can be solved. The most important thing for NET and the plastic industry is to find an opportunity for using recycled plastic in the dangerous goods segment without compromising on the transport safety.
The last half of 2019 was characterized by hard pressure on all players in the segment to find a solution to the challenge of improving the environmental footprint for the plastic packaging. | 2019-04-19T15:02:06 | https://www.net17025.com/Netopp/Nyheter/Recycled-plastic/cid/a23648_30699/ |
Husband and Me in one of our self-directed ShootI am currently based in sunny Singapore.
I had at least 7 different shoots (and tons of fun). Crazy huh?
I am working as a full-time Designer and my studio is somewhat in the central of Singapore.
I believe that every couple is very unique and special.
Each has their own different love story.
That’s why I started Oh, Dear! Photography. To provide affordable*, yet classic vintage style photos. No stiff awkward point-at-sky poses, but true real emotions captured.
But this site will not only be showcasing the photos I took, I will be sharing some experiences I had during my own wedding preparations too. I am working on some DIY tutorials too.
A wedding is so expensive in Singapore. But there are lots of ways you can cut some corners and save up for that much needed holiday (Yay! Honeymoon!).
So check back more often!

Excerpts from my day-to-day thoughts and experiences of being a mother.
I am a happily married mother-of-two living in beautiful, sunny Western Australia (the land of the pristine beaches). I also have a dog and the semblance of a career which I try to manage on a part-time basis. And since we think that this doesn’t keep us busy enough we are also in the process knocking down our residence of six years to build a new nest.
One day, with my husband’s encouragement, I made a decision to trade the remaining time I have each day allocated to Netflix to start a blog. One which allows me to immerse myself in my passion for writing and at the same time share my experiences of being a mother. Because it’s scary and a little lonely at times, this experience.
It’s true that these kids do not come with a manual, but I believe that between the collective wisdom of the millions of mothers who have come before us and are now living through it, we will find a way through it. All we have to do is just to connect more, and that will make us realise that we are not alone. | 2019-04-20T01:18:34 | https://twokidsandalaptop.blog/about/ |
One of our ‘Cows in the office is a semi-professional rugby player. This means that from time-to-time he will inevitably bore us about his sport. The other day however, the entire herd was raving about a video from the Rugby Channel in New Zealand. Taking a leaf out of the NFL’s book, Sky New Zealand has made some “Fantasy Files” videos of their own featuring top New Zealand International players performing seemingly impossible tricks for the camera.
This video has been doing the rounds online but what makes this type of content so viral?
Despite both videos being used to promote a specific service, the videos have mass appeal. The content is simple – no understanding of the sport is needed and everyone can see and absorb something amazing.
Controversy. This element has really driven these two videos through. While some people moan about the tricks being impossible, others accept how well the videos have been faked. The other group love to just argue for or against either viewpoint.
Talkability. People love these videos because it sparks the imagination in to life. Is it really real?! What if it was?! What skills are people capable of?! All amazing conversation topics.
Both these videos have moved to a huge audience, often outside their target market. How? By being simple, controversial and remarkable.
Both the NFL and rugby versions are below. If you haven’t seen them, enjoy! | 2019-04-22T22:18:04 | http://www.hotcow.co.uk/Buzz-Blog/the-key-to-two-great-viral-videos.htm |

In 2018 Hirvihaara Manor celebrates it’s 100th anniversary with special menu and wines.
Compared to most European countries Finnish wine culture is very young as we are not a wine growing country. For us Finns, to understand the characteristics and differences of wines, it is easier to handle the topic through food.
“At Hirvihaara Manor, we have chosen this magnificient ingredient as the main course for our 100th anniversary menu. Wild deer is served in a black pot which ensures that all the aromas and flavours stay from the kitchen to the customer. When one opens the lid, hot steam full of meaty, earthy and forestlike smells reach one’s nose. Subtle spices such as thyme heighten the combination of tender deer meat and smooth celeriac purée.
Aromas of red and dark berries, combined with light smokiness, enhance the flavours of the food. Well balanced tannins give Chateau La Garde , Pessac-Léognan, enough structure without being too strong for the wild deer meat. The wine’s long aftertaste lingers pleasantly until the harmonious and elegant finish.
La Terrasse de La Garde, with its fruity and smoky notes, expresses the typicity of great Pessac-Léognan. Round and soft on the palate, it perfectly balances the full-flavoured wild deer meat and the creamy celeriac. Merlot dominant, the wine shows smooth, fine-grained tanins. This second wine is a proud exemplar of the character of Château La Garde superb terroir. | 2019-04-19T20:38:54 | http://www.dourthe.com/en/information-on-our-wines/what-to-drink-with-game/ |

Fifteen Things You almost certainly Failed to Understand about Starting senior home care business.
Starting a home-based business could be profitable, and a great way to achieve work and life balance. Growing a prosperous and profitable online business takes hard work and dedication. So exactly what do you have to do to create a profitable home-based business that can remain successful? This post is planning to look at what must be done for people who want an excellent business inside their homes.
Should you be starting a whole new home-based business, you will want an effective website. This gets your message over to the widest audience possible and can definitely increase sales. Obtaining a website ready to go will likely be facilitated every time a good web developer is hired.
Make a practice of depositing payments while you receive them. Make deposits daily, rather than per week. In case you have checks just sitting around waiting to become deposited, there is a greater chance these particular will get lost. Go within the bank and deposit with the employee. ATM machines might make mistakes, if you go inside you will certainly be positive that it goes in your account.

Sometimes, you can expect to even find companies that charge around 3 times the exact amount.
Keep excellent financial records of your spending and the costs of running your home business. Keeping your records organized and up-to-date may prevent enough time-consuming task of recreating your company expense history if you file your taxes. In addition, retaining your records will be helpful in case you are audited from the IRS.

So what is a girl to do when she moves to the city, has no prospects, but has a substantial fashion & lifestyle network? There’s quite a lot to do.
Co-designer of fashion brand Ruff Tung (dedicated to the plus size, and mothers trying to acquire taste) Bridget Pickering invited me to a summer soiree, in association with beauty therapy hub Sorbet Salon, located in Kenilworth, Cape Town. It was a relaxed meet-‘n-greet where people of different shapes and sizes got together and networked, got their nails done, browsed and shopped the latest Ruff Tung collection, and reviewed female, male and generally unisex products from Dermatologica, Environ and more.
Ludwig, Myself, Nicci and Bridget. Are'nt we just fabulous?!
The products are affordable as hell if you’re preoccupied with your skin and want to do something for it. Owner of the location, Nicci, offered up prizes to the attendees, as well as a warm ambiance off-set by the African sunset showering the location with amazing natural light.
Next door to Sorbet is a restaurant known as Bootlegger Coffee Company catered the event with finger foods that retired my hunger pangs for good; I’m talking mini Yumburger composed of grass-fed beef patty with tomato, rocket, crispy onion, gherkins, mustard mayo, and relish; there were Jalapeño BootPoppers, Chicken Strips with Relish, and glasses of 2014 Bianco Di Stellenbosch Pinot Grigio.
Everybody, including myself, chose to do their nails in some interesting Sorbet flavored colors, and the personnel revealed their unwavering willingness to help customers and deliver perfection with each client.
I rocked a tribal trademark Ruff Tung dress in black and white, from their latest collection, as well as lace-up black stiletto boots from Cotton On.
Keen to get your nails done? or does your body need a massage?

Re: Bonding Tungsten and/or Iridium?
Based off of what? When you pull the wire off does the wire break and leave material behind? Is it slightly embedded in the base material?
As Jerry and others have mentioned, ideally you want a transformer whose secondary has one or two turns to make proper spot welds. You’re after gobs of current for a very short interval (with pressure). Check out the attached two documents for a great primer on the subject. Of course you can weld two pieces together by pumping power in like you are doing, but a proper spot weld requires lots of current for a short duration to create an ideal nugget. Dissimilar metals and different thickness material require special attention to the electrode design to make the nugget form properly.
Last year I was struggling with spot welding a tungsten filament to an NPS support for a vacuum tube. George clued me in to the proper surface preparation requirements for the material being welded so don't forgot about that aspect too.
Here are some photos of the innards of a Hughes 250 Watt-Seconds impulse welder that I use for electrode welding.
The capacitors are charged to a maximum of about 450V and are discharged into the output transformer using surprisingly small thyristors.
The 450V capacitor bank and thyristor pcb. The large green wirewound resistor at bottom right is in series between the capacitor bank and thyristors.
Underside of thyristor pcb with the thyristors at top left.
The output transformer and primary winding selector switch for altering the pulse shape.
My 1950's Raytheon vacuum tube spot welder, (got it for free), also charges its oil capacitor bank to about 500 volts and is an adjustable 40 to 200 joule unit. Like your system, it has a monster transformer with 1/8" thick strap copper output windings. and the switching is done with large vacuum tube thyratrons. It gives a nice "thump" sound as the weld is made.
Small, capacitive discharge, spot welding systems give a consistent power delivery to what is welded each time.
Mine is an old hughes, I think max 40J. It uses a mercury contactor to dump the cap into the transformer.
While my inadequate resistance brazing transformer was working pretty well for soldering tungsten filaments to SS conductors, I decided I wanted something more. .
But... The whole machine was rather dangerous and clumsy (exposed line current wiring attached to variac by screw terminals, disconnect only on the hot line, no momentary switch, etc), ugly, and the pincers I made were never very good to start with and didn't get much better after I set them on fire trying to solder the power cables to them. To make things worse, the cables were very stiff when cold, but the insulation would quickly become melty and soft after a few seconds of welding.
So... I built this using the same transformer.
Box contains transformer along with a momentary DPDT toggle switch that switches the primary and a fuse holder for safety. Timing is by hand, in typical messy-and-simple Krase Laboratories style. Hold-pressure is also by hand -- for a while I thought this thing wasn't working (was barely getting workpieces red hot) but turns out I was using far too much pressure.
The tongs are very simple and a vast improvement. Two beefy terminal blocks (called "distribution blocks" are used to bond the hefty but flexible silicone insulated #6 (?) cables to the 1/4 inch copper tongs. Each has a brass section brazed to the end to accommodate the set screw to attach the pincer tips which are made of 8 AWG copper electrical wire. Note that brazing will make the copper DEAD SOFT and you need to hammer it a little to re-harden it up enough for further machining.
The terminal blocks also serve as mechanical structure; with a few extra holes drilled they are both epoxied and screwed to a leaf spring "hinge" made of thin stainless. I think a real hinge might be a good upgrade.
I broke both a drill and a tap trying to tap the copper, hence the brass.
Resistance welding is made very easy if capacitive discharge is used, as you just dial a voltage to get a rather precise joule energy in every weld.
Professional machines for the vacuum tube industry usually had a selector switch to choose joule energy.
My first resistance welder was a 10 volt 60 amp transformer feeding professional spot welder electrodes (welder supply). The electrodes helped, (no sticking), but it was still an art to judge pressure and on-time.
The Raytheon tube welder made small spot welds a snap. | 2019-04-21T06:44:39 | http://www.fusor.net/board/viewtopic.php?p=79032& |
If you are searching for HVAC Long Island NY, then that means you must be having some heating and air problems. Maybe your unit broke down or perhaps you are thinking about upgrading to a new one. Whatever the case may be, you probably have lots of questions and concerns. Heating and air conditioning units have become a major household appliance and the technology within these units has been upgraded dramatically from the old days. Replacing or repairing your heating and air conditioning unit is a major decision that you must take seriously. Below you are going to learn some information about your heating and air conditioning concerns.
If your unit has broken down, then you are going to be faced with the decision of repairing or replacing it. Many homeowners like to think that repairing the unit is the cheapest and easiest alternative, when in fact that might be the wrong decision. Of course, to most homeowners the cost of the repair is much cheaper than the cost of a new unit, but the homeowners are not taking into account the electrical consumption of the unit. A heating and air-conditioning unit that is older in age is going to consume much more electricity than a new unit. This in return is going to make those electric bills much higher. So when you factor in the cost of your electric bill that new unit is going to end up paying for its self.
Another thing that many homeowners do not consider is the type of Freon that their heating and air unit uses. Chances are that if your unit is five years or older, it probably uses R-22 Freon. R-22 Freon is being phased-out, which means that the price is skyrocketing and soon you will not be able to purchase this type of Freon at all. Every new unit contains what is known as R-410A Freon. This Freon operates at much higher pressures than R-22, which makes it more energy efficient.
If your unit contains R-22 Freon and it springs a major leak, then you probably are going to spend a significant amount of money repairing the leak and replacing the Freon. There is a very good chance that buying a new unit would be much cheaper and when you factor in how much money the new unit will save you on operating costs, you will be much better off going this route. This is not to mention the fact that you will now be upgraded with the new technologies.
A warranty should be a major consideration of any heating and air unit. With any new unit that you buy you are going to get a ten-year parts warranty. This means that within ten years, if your unit breaks down you will not be charged for the labor or part. However, after the first year you will have to pay for a labor fee. You should consider the fact that many HVAC Long Island NY companies will offer you a wide variety of warranties, when you buy your new unit. For instance, for an additional fee you could purchase a ten-year parts and labor warranty, which means within ten years, if your unit breaks down you will not have to pay for anything. | 2019-04-23T03:54:19 | https://tophvaclongisland.com/heating-air-conditioning/heating-and-air-conditioning-information-and-tips/ |
Warren and Magness are both budding which is surprising to me. Magness bloomed on ohxf333 last year but the blooms didnt make it. This year the tiny magness is covered in blooms.
Shout out to Clark and Matt for convincing me to not throw the towel and not top work my Warren pear 3 years ago. Here I am at the 8 year mark and saw my 1st blooms on the tree today.
Congratulations @Chris_in_GA your about ready to dine on premium quality pears this year or next! Pears like Ayers & Warren are quality pears that can be grown in the south! Makes me wonder why dont more people grow them?
Makes me wonder why dont more people grow them?
I grafted in a few scions of Warren onto existing limbs this spring. Thinking that I can shorten the fruiting time.
Let us know if you get fruit sooner than the 8 year mark.
Mine is 3 years old on OxHF87 rootstock. It looks like I am in for a long wait.
I have a combo pear pear, Blake’s Pride and Warren, from DWN, probably on OHxF33now coming into second leaf. The Warren is almost twice as vigorous as the Blake’s Pride. But the BP has a few flower buds.
My most vigorous and productive pear is a 5-year-old Conference which is about 15’ tall 10’ feet wide. 2018 was a banner year in which it lived up to the literature by being being absolutely laden with large, elongated fruit, much like Bosc, but in clusters like grapefruit. Picked hard ripe in late Sept-Oct. and ripened in a cool room, the fruit was excellent, nearly as good as top tier Comice, Bosc, or Ubileen. I can see why Conference has been touted as a leading commercial pear in Europe. The vigorous growth and branch-spread from the fruit load makes it a great shade tree. Only my larger, older Comice on seedling can equal the production of the Conference, thus far.
I am located in coastal N. California, so you may need to adjust for your area. Good luck.
I just checked my third year from graft Warren pear. It is loaded top to bottom with blossoms.
I grafted it in 2017 to OHF87.
I am hoping that it will fruit this year.
How old is the rootstock?
1 year older. It was just a tiny bareroot rootstock.
That’s very impressive. I grafted Warren on a Blake’s Pride tree (on OHxF 97) in 2015.
Also, in 2015, I grafted Magness and Fondante de Moulins-Lille.
2018 Blake’s Pride set fruit and will this year, too.
2018, Fondante set fruit and will again this year.
I also accidentally grafted two varieties on that big Warren’s branches. Both of these new varieties (grafted 2017 and 2018) show flower buds this year.
In short, Warren takes much longer than any varieties I grafted and I gradted about 15 varieties of pears.
Your Warren, if true to label, is really impressive, in deed.
I obtained the scionwood from Raintree Nursery during their grafting/pruning classes. I also obtained several other Asian and European pear scionwood. All of them are blooming this year.
They are all still in pots waiting for their permanent homes after I sample their flavor and decide if I want to keep them. Maybe growing in pots makes them precocious?
I don’t know but OHxF 87 is quite dwarf. That probably helps, too.
All are in 5-7 gallon pots. All are around 4-6 feet tall.
Maybe closer to 7 feet.
I grafted Warren in 2012 and 2013. The scion for my 2013 graft came from the 2012 graft. The 2013 graft hasn’t grown nearly as well or as big as the 2012 graft, but it made one or two fruits last year (2018) and it has plenty of flower buds now. The 2012 graft is probably 4-5" in diameter now – both grafts were on volunteer calleries – and it has yet to flower.
In 2017 I grafted Warren on a limb of my Potomac tree, rootstock OH x F87. I have two blossoms this Spring. Very unexpected. I did train the branch horizontal… This appears to me to be key.
I’m planning on doing some of my trees with the branch bending. I am sure if will be better than what I am getting, fruit wise, now.
@Chris_in_GA do you have some fruitlets forming on Warren? | 2019-04-19T14:44:35 | https://growingfruit.org/t/is-it-worth-it-to-grow-the-warren-pear/2574?page=5 |

Participants on the treadmill exercised with the goal of maintaining 60 to 70 percent of their maximum heart rate throughout the exercise session. "This range was chosen to replicate previous findings that have shown improved cognitive performance in response to this intensity," the researchers said.
"Yoga is an ancient Indian science and way of life that includes not only physical movements and postures but also regulated breathing and meditation," said study lead Neha Gothe. "The practice involves an active attentional or mindfulness component but its potential benefits have not been thoroughly explored."
"It appears that following yoga practice, the participants were better able to focus their mental resources, process information quickly, more accurately and also learn, hold and update pieces of information more effectively than after performing an aerobic exercise bout," Gothe said.
"The breathing and meditative exercises aim at calming the mind and body and keeping distracting thoughts away while you focus on your body, posture or breath," she said. "Maybe these processes translate beyond yoga practice when you try to perform mental tasks or day-to-day activities." | 2019-04-22T22:14:06 | https://www.nydailynews.com/life-style/health/yoga-20-minutes-boosts-brain-function-study-article-1.1366274 |
In July, news broke that Demi Lovato had been hospitalized for an apparent overdose. Although representatives for the singer refuted some of the claims, saying that "some of the information being reported is incorrect and they respectfully ask for privacy," in her first personal statement since the incident, Demi seems to confirm that she did indeed relapse.
She thanked fans for their support and promised to "keep fighting" and "focus on my sobriety and road to recovery."
I want to thank God for keeping me alive and well. To my fans, I am forever grateful for all of your love and support throughout this past week and beyond. Your positive thoughts and prayers have helped me navigate through this difficult time.
I want to thank my family, my team, and the staff at Cedars-Sinai who have been by my side this entire time. Without them, I wouldn't be here writing this letter to all of you.
According to People, sources close to Lovato say she plans to enter a treatment center when she leaves the hospital. | 2019-04-24T06:40:23 | https://www.marieclaire.com/celebrity/a22647124/demi-lovato-first-statement-since-being-hospitalized/ |
@NongpeeP he was talking about the drunk scene, he said he was embarrassed performing the scene. In personal life he doesn’t like drinking therefore he found it difficult and awkward even during the reading rehearsals. However he is thankful to everyone for enjoying the scene. The MC told him that he did a very good job, his performance was very natural and reminiscent of a green grape (very fresh) which made everyone laugh. @gumtaek glad to be any help.
We are all going to miss her so much. let’s hope she does some magazine spreads, I think it’s mandatory for the Suecomma ambasaddress to do one promoting the brand. She should do a magazine spread for Chaumet too!!!!
@NongpeeP and @gumtaek he said he found JH’s determination and manner of protecting SH very impressive and cool. The MC used his real name and he corrected her saying he was talking about JH and not PBG himself otherwise it would sound like he was complimenting himself In the second clip he said he didn’t have time to practice for the fanmeeting since they were busy with the drama. He feels apologetic towards the fans as he wasn’t able to devote more time to practice. He’s really modest! It was reminiscent of how Kyo was teasing him of practicing by himself in Cuba without telling her, maybe that’s the reason he was jumping around in that alley.. boy was practicing.
@gumtaek The kiss that JH gave JM in the playground was an ad-lib. Bogum decided to kiss him, P.O didn’t move during the scene and stood still during the kiss which made it weirder. When the MC teases P.O, he said it’s because he likes kisses. While showering he washes from down to up. He prefers mother’s cooking, pears over apples, snow boarding, cards over cash, dogs over cats chocolate, chicken over pizza and jajangmyeon over jampong. He sang drunken truth to one lucky member in the audience, he was singing over the phone while she sat in her seat. He didn’t use the mike so that only she could really experience the drama moment.
Seasons changed, the wind kept blowing but JH and SH will stand the test of time The girl by the beach was not alone.
Five men from the lighting team get two selfies with the queen. Meanwhile P.O.
@dukesa1122 Kyo doesn’t just have the most dedicated fandom, she also has the most dedicated troll army. I wish Kyo did a book about beauty secrets, she is a big fan of traditional treatments and massages.
This doesn’t exist yet , the production company will not start working on a director’s cut DVD unless they are happy with the number of interested queries. This is just a fictitious demand survey it is not a formal sale, so no exchange of money. They are just collecting information. English subtitles available for 16 episodes, I don’t think they have subtitles for the extras i.e unseen videos, behind the scenes, commentary and interviews.
I posted the link about 3 weeks ago, they are still taking pre-orders. It was limited to domestic shipping but now they are offering international shipping. http://m.yes24.com/Goods/Detail/68156485?scode=032&ozsrank=4 @tlireal all international fans don’t have to fill the survey just send an e-mail . I had posted this information about 2 weeks ago. You still have time to contact them.
Looking forward to Bogum’s fanmeetings, hopefully he gives us more insight into the drama. Looking forward to the DVD commentary, I think that will happen sometime after all his fan meetings are over. I really want to hear the BF team talk about the entire process of making Encounter. @stardustvoid what the painting in SH’s room didn’t show the viewers, the Little Prince was never alone. He was always with his fox. The painting is based on the little prince sculpture in Busan.
Thank you to everyone on this thread. Here you go, have some of the Cake they had tonight.
@leedonghaek I’m counting on you for super zoomed in kiss gifs.
Sorry babies, it was the last episode. no more adorable babies viewing episodes posts.

I call these gift ideas “stocking stuffers” but I think they fit into so many categories. I think they certainly are perfect if they fit in the stocking, but if not, I think they are perfect “smaller” gifts from the kids to Mommy. They are really just extra gifts to help the hubbies 😉 I think they are also great options for sisters, aunts, coworkers or hostesses.
I kept all the gifts below $50 and I am loving the variety.
I love everything tortoise shell but this bracelet is just screaming my name more than usual. The combination of the chain bracelet and the tortoise monogram is perfection!!
I have the Lilly Pulitzer planner from last year and absolutely love it. It gives me everything to keep me organized and I am certainly wanting another for 2018!!
YOU GUYS, if you don’t know about this little secret, Fresh Lips, let me just tell you!! This is truly satin on your lips!!! I also have it in a tinted shade for a bit of color…try this…you will thank me!!!
For all the makeup addicts out there, this sounds amazing!! I believe anything Laura Mercier is so good so I cannot wait to try this palette out!!
How classy and timeless are these earrings?? AND, they are generation-less. I just adore the navy and the pearl together, so feminine!!
I think coffee table books are the BEST gift to give but also to receive. I usually choose based on my favorite brands or my favorite colors. So, this one is a definite must for me!! | 2019-04-20T22:51:41 | https://tiffaniatbretonbay.com/2017/11/29/stocking-stuffers-for-us-gals/ |
← Royal Wedding! Just a day left!!!
Is this not the cutest thing ever! I just saw it on Green Wedding Shoes and am in love. This couple is local–right from Huntington Beach. Brandon Kidd shot their photos in San Juan Capistrano, not far at all!
So I really love how much thought this couple put into their photos! ❤ Major inspiration for anyone shooting there’s. I think the beach is way overrated for photos.
Just thought I’d share. See more here! | 2019-04-19T07:00:23 | https://thebridaldiaries.com/2011/04/28/cutest-engagement-shoot/ |
