Are You Liable to Pay Land Tax?
If you own any property that is not your principal place of residence, including a holiday house or unit, you may be liable to pay Land Tax. This includes property that does not earn any income. Your will need to register with Revenue NSW register for land tax.
The amount of Land Tax payable depends on the combined value of any Taxable Land you own or have an interest in, excluding exempt land. The value of Taxable Land does not include any structural improvements, such as a house. Also, you do not pay Land Tax in NSW on any properties you own outside of NSW.
Your home or as it is termed your “principal place of residence” is generally exempt from Land Tax. There are however certain other exemptions, which may apply and we can advise you if property owned by you is exempt from the payment of Land Tax.
The land tax threshold is $692,000.
The amount of tax paid is $100 plus 1.6% up to the land value between the threshold and the premium rate threshold, $4,231,000, and 2% thereafter.
Where land is owned in partnership, regardless of the number of partners, the threshold is still $692,000.
An individual’s interest in a partnership may also be assessed if that owner holds other land individually or with other partnerships.
Since 2007, the value used to determine your land tax liability will generally be the average of the land value for the current tax year and the land values for the previous two years. Where a parcel of land was only recently created (eg by subdivision or amalgamation) the average value will be based only on the land values for those taxing dates when the newly created land item did exist. | 2019-04-22T21:01:12 | http://kellylaw.com.au/index.php/land-tax/ |

SOME doctors have decided to charge patients who are insured with the Všeobecná zdravotná poisťovňa (VšZP) insurance house.
VšZP is Slovakia's largest health insurer, and around 70 percent of Slovaks are insured there. Under Slovak law, health care treatments are free, with minor exceptions.
Doctors from the Slovak Chamber of Physicians (SLK) have refused to sign new contracts with the VšZP, arguing that the payments the insurers are offering for the procedures the doctors carry out are too low. Slovakia's Health Minister, Rudolf Zajac, has threatened to strip the doctors of their licenses.
Doctors themselves are not completely united over the issue. While SLK members refuse to sign the new contracts, the Slovak Union of Medical Specialists as well as the Union of Private Doctors signed the deals and accused the SLK of politicizing the issue.
"The contracts are good, and whoever says the opposite is lying," said Andrej Janco, head of the Union of Medical Specialists. | 2019-04-21T04:44:59 | https://spectator.sme.sk/c/20001645/some-doctors-charging-cash-from-patients.html |
I am travelling solo to Barcelona. I was wondering if anyone has any tip on how to enjoy the beach when travelling alone.
As in, is it safe to leave your belongings on the beach when you go for a dip? If not, are there any lockers on the beaches in Barcelona?
First thing you should do after purchasing your egg is to test ride its watertightness. Put a piece of paper in it, lock it up and throw it in a sink/bucket full of water. Then wiggle it around for a few minutes. Take it out, open it and check the paper: if it's wet you either did not close the egg properly or it leaks.
One possible way of carrying the egg whilst swimming could be replacing the lanyard with a longer one so that you can wear it diagonally across one shoulder like a shoulder bag. Other options include tying it to your swimming trunks, wearing it around your waist, your neck, or wearing a rubber weight belt of the type used by freedivers on which you can strap the box. The needed comfort also depends in how much swimming you are planning to do.
Some of the beaches in Barcelona have lockers, according to the official municipal website. This information is everything but easy to find, since it's usually only listed on the individual webpage of each beach. The results of my searches show that the following beaches have lockers: Nova Icaria, Somorrostro, Bogatell, Mar Bella, Barceloneta (in Catalan only - Consigna). Hopefully this information is up to date. Note that the existence of lockers doesn't guarantee you to find a free/available one to use. Hence why I suggest the dry egg as a first option.
I´ve never been to Barcelona, but generally beaches have kiosks where you can buy drinks and food. I usually leave my belongings in a kiosk I intend to eat/drink something (or already have). Kiosk owners are usually more than happy to hold your belongings while you're in the water. If you don't intend to eat/drink something, it's a small price you pay for a little security.
Just to be a little more safer I lock my belongings, normally a small backpack. It doesn't prevent someone from taking your whole backpack while inside the kiosk, but makes it harder for someone to pick your stuff inside.
I would recommend you to take a train and go a beach further from the city, where you can be a bit less cautious; but in the beaches of Barcelona, never, ever, leave your stuff alone when your are going to swim. Barcelona is a top destination for tourists, but also for pickpockets. They are really good and there are probably some of them in the beach waiting for people to go into the water. The only "good" thing is that they will never hurt you, they are just after your belongings.
My first bit of advice is that you shouldn't bring anything to the beach except your towel, swimsuit, flip flops and a bit of cash for a snack. No need to bring your passport or your ridiculously expensive mobile phone.
That said, I don't think you need to buy any special gadget. Just approach the person next to you and ask him (or her) if they mind to keep an eye on your stuff while you are swimming. If they say it is Ok (95% will say so while smiling to you), just put your bag on their towel and enjoy your swim. Please understand that people of Barcelona hate pickpockets more than anyone, and they will feel sympathy for a tourist who is scared to be robbed.
"Em vaig a banyar; et faria res vigilar un moment la meva bossa, si et plau? No trigaré massa."
"Voy a bañarme; te importa vigilar mi bolsa un momento, por favor? No estaré mucho rato"
"I am going to swim; would you mind to keep an eye on my bag for a moment, please? I will not stay long"
As a general rule take as little as possible and preferably things without value.
Check if the beach has lockers. There are some beaches with lockers and keys that you strap around the wrist. You find these systems many times in swimming pools but some beaches have it.
Take the least possible. Take only coins and put them in a pocket in your swimming suit (preferably one that you can close). In case your clothes get stollen you allways have some money to call someone or something else. This, in principle, is only possible if you stay or live near the beach.
Sit near a family. If you want to go to the water kindly ask them to have a look. Just the fact that you are near other people is already a dissuading factor.
Ask some café or beach bar to keep your stuff. I would not advise this as the first strategy. As you can imagine they probably have many requests. If you do that at least consume something there. You can also check if they have a paid service for it.
Use a water proof bag. You can put your most valuable things in it and take him to the sea. You can find them in several sizes. The one in the picture is particularly suited for a mobile phone but there are other shapes that might be more convenient to you. You can find them starting around 5euros.
You could invest in a travel safe. The one pictured below is water-resistant, though not waterproof. So you can't carry it into water. It can be fixed to a pole or a piece of furniture via the cable that comes with it, though it would best if you leave it in the beach lockers when available so you wouldn't have to keep an eye on it.
Craftily hide your belongings (you have limited space) in a 'soiled' diaper next to your towel.
I've been to the beach solo around the world a number of times. it's perfectly reasonable (in most civilized places) to leave a beach towel, a bag of things, and perhaps a chair if you're so inclined alone on the beach. If you're worried about someone stealing from you then covertly dig a hole in the sand and bury some stuff within this hole, fill it in, and cover with your towel. Someone around you will definitely notice if a stranger is literally digging through your stuff.
There's quite a few bars, restaurants, and hotels adjacent to or close to the beach. You could ask the staff if you could leave your stuff there. I found the beach between the W-hotel and Port Olimpic near Barceloneta (https://goo.gl/maps/V0vqc) the most pleasant. But it's quite busy there, especially in the summer.
As for lockers, never seen them there.
To protect your stuff from being stolen on the beach, don't bring them to the beach.
Your job, when combating theft, is to make everything you have uninteresting. If they see you put stuff in your car, that's interesting. If they see you leave stuff on the beach, that's interesting.
If you drive up, park, and get out of your car ready to get in the water with they key safely attached to your body, that's not very interesting.
Put lots of heavy rocks in your bag. Rocks are much more dense than bricks or concrete, and are easy to find almost anywhere. A heavy bag is harder to steal conspicuously.
If there are no rocks around, then fill plastic shopping bags with sand and put those in your bag.
Place your valuables outside the [rock|sand]-filled bag. That bag becomes a decoy, and your valuables should be inside another bag which is buried in the sand under your towel.
Put grease or tar on the handle of your bag. if you are more malicious than I am, you could even put something painful on it such as Ben-Gay cream with lemon juice and small bits of broken glass and crushed sewing needles. I pity the thief who grabs that handle too quickly.
You should always be cautious, never trust any place, country or city, even those with fame of secure.
In the particular scenario of beaches, I never bring with me valuables that are unnecessary. As I will be taking a proper shower back in the hotel, I seldom require any expensive watch, credit cards, rings or phones in the beach. The same applies to valuable SLR cameras that can be damaged with sand, salt and humidity.
Bear in mind that beaches are spaces where people go light in clothes, so bad boys can take a fast scan of you and your valuables while approaching to the area and determine that you are a prey well before you even take a sit in the sand. If you bring cases, boxes, a necklace with a key, a bracelet with a key or protective sealed bags,... you easily call their attention.
The first rule to security while travelling is: avoid showing you have value and project an image of being poor like a rat.
Try to bring just your hotel card, a few euros, perhaps your mobile, all of this wrapped in two plastic bags. Then, bring a towel and your food.
Now once in the beach, take your time to bury the plastic bags with valuables in the sand, in a discrete manner, and place your towel and anything heavy (beach chair, large bag with just food...) on top to mark your "treasure point" to avoid losing the track. Take a bath and return. Keep an eye to your space while swimming, thought.
In the unlikely event that somebody puts his/her eye on you, they won't dare to start a treasure hunt to take your hypothetical valuables, as long as you have shown yourself low profile, because they risk to be easily caught on the spot. They will prefer easier targets that have already shown options (people that have shown their mobiles, money, cards, ... and then stored them in ultrasafe bags). Burglars will shift to those targets to take their keys, boxes,.. because they want to play a safe game, and their victims have shown they already have value. You haven't.
is it safe to leave your belongings on the beach when you go for a dip?
If not, are there any lockers on the beaches in Barcelona?
You're off to Sitges or? In broad general terms there's a shortage of beach lockers in Barcelona area.
Further, it would be completely normal that lockers are removed, closed, added, broken, being painted that day etc. JoEr has kindly googled for you, but there's only a (say) 30% chance of that online information being accurate.
Consider - as gmauch explains every beach has concessions renting chairs and the like. Perhaps it's possible to pay these guys to look after stuff? I do not know if that is a common solution.

Cyaneae is a Greek name meaning "dark blue" and also "clashing rocks", though nobody knows why it was so named or which meaning it is supposed to have. Cyaneae is famous for its many sarcophagi which surround the site. There may be over 300 of them and this place has the most sarcophagi of any Lycian site.
Cyaneae is situated on a plateau with a rocky slope to the north descending very steeply to the plain of Yavu below. Two chipped stone axes have been found on the site, but it was probably not continously inhabited until the 5th century BC and was perhaps part of a group of Dynasts' residences in the Yavu mountain region during that time. In the fourth century BC, during the Early Hellenistic period, Cyaneae became the center of the polis territory. It seems to have been one of Lycia's important cities, given its strategic location and its large settlement area. An ancient road leads directly to the harbour of Teimiussa. However, though it is listed by many ancient geographers, they give no information about it. Cayaneae reached its greatest point during the Late Roman and Byzantine periods. Reconstruction work was done and many new buildings were constructed (mainly churches). The city walls were also slightly extended and some earlier stuctures had to be destroyed, but some were incorportated right into the walls, such as free-standing tombs and sarcophagi. Cyaneae was abandoned in the 14th century AD, it is thought due to the pressure of the advancing Seljuks.
Visiting Cyaneae: This site is not as easy to access as some sites such as Letoon or Xanthos. There is a hiking trail up from the village of Yavu, off the main Kaş-Finike road. The hike takes about 45 minutes and my neighbours say it is well worth it. An alternative is to drive directly to the site, as we did. About a kilometre southwest of the signpost for Cyaneae on the Kas-Finike road is a track road that winds up to the site (about 4 kilometres), past a semi-nomadic settlement. I don't recommend this way unless you have a jeep-like vehicle as it would be too rough going for a car.
The city is surrounded on three sides by fortification walls, the southern side is steep enough that walls were not needed. The walls mostly date from later periods and are of poor construction, with three entrance gates.
Upon the hill of the acropolis, which was the settled area, some classical elements can be seen including preserved stretches of walls, sarcophagi with lovely reliefs, a series of decorated rock-cut tombs. But the majority of building remains are from the Roman Imperial period (particularly the second century AD). There are the remains of a bath built in honour of the emperor Antoninus Pius. There are also inscriptions in which Cyaneaen citizens were proclaimed to be benefactors.
A theatre dating to pre-Roman times, built into the slope of a hill on the west side of the acropolis is well-preserved, though the stage building is in very poor condition. It has holes for the anchoring of wooden post that must have supported an awning to provide shade.
Sarcophagi and other tombs date from the 4th century BC to Roman Imperial times. One of the oldest sarcophagi is that of a Lycian nobleman by the name of Khudalije and is richly decorated with reliefs. The necropolis is long and part of it extends along a path between the theatre and the acropolis and contains hundreds of sarcophagi. Almost all of the sarcophagi here, like the majority in Cyaneae, date from the Roman period. The second part of the necropolis is located along a difficult to reach cliff of the southern face of the hill with rock-cut tombs of an early date. An unusual tomb dated to the third century BC is also found here, a simple Ionic temple-type rock-cut tomb once belonging to a certain Perpenesis and his wife as well as some of their relatives.
Other structures at Cyaneae include the Stheneleion (a market hall that was later turned into a church) at the northern edge of the agora as well as a poorly preserved triple-bayed triumphal arch at the northeast part of the city wall.
from which I have taken much information about the site.

2012 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc Roussanne Vieilles Vignes (aged in a 50/50 blend of stainless steel tanks and oak barrels for eight months): Vivid yellow. An explosively perfumed bouquet evokes ripe melon, nectarine and mango, and powerful mineral and floral elements add vivacity and lift. Broad, sappy and deeply concentrated, offering intense orchard fruit and pit fruit flavors that stain the palate while showing surprising vivacity. Strikes a deft balance between richness and finesse, picking up ginger and honey flourishes on the back half. Clings with outstanding energy and persistence on the finish, leaving sappy pear nectar and floral notes behind.
Ce sont les Temps Modernes, le chef d'oeuvre de Charlie Chaplin, où il refait le monde plutôt que de se soumettre à lui. La couleur est or jaune. Dans le bouquet, de délicates et déterminées fragrances salées résistent vaillamment aux très contemporains parfums de fumée, de crème brûlée et de figues séchées qui les entourent. L'attaque est débordée par les arômes d'abricots, de marmelade et de croissant au beurre qui tapissent le palais. La rétro-olfaction est délicieusement turbulente. Les exhalaisons de zestes d'agrumes, de lavande et de verveine y dynamitent tous les sens du dégustateur. En finale, de subtiles effluves d'amandes déconstruisent un gigantesque et solide édifice de mangues, de miel, d'ananas et de melon de Cavaillon. Très émouvant, comme toujours.
Complet, longueur remarquable et caractère unique dans l'appellation. Un des sommets du Rhône en Blanc.
This white Chateauneuf du Pape has notes of marmalade, buttered citrus, orange rind and lavender. A good body with voluptuously textured white very rich, that's balanced by gorgeous purity and freshness. It is a very complex wine which pair very well with grilled fish, seafood and cheeses.
Gorgeous, with lush mango, creamed pineapple and Cavaillon melon fruit flavors that glide along, featuring a light fresh butter edge that holds sway on the finish. Despite the alluring, tropical profile, the lovely backdrop of verbena and wet stone should blossom with cellaring.
Even more impressive and coming from a single parcel of vines planted in 1909, the 2012 Chateauneuf du Pape Roussanne Vieilles Vignes is an off-the-hook effort and certainly the greatest white produced in the Southern Rhone. Offering up exuberant and perfumed notes of marmalade, buttered citrus, orange rind and lavender, this full-bodied voluptuously textured white has knockout richness that’s balanced by gorgeous purity and freshness. Always showing brilliantly in their youth, this cuvee can shut down and be hard to judge when (or if) it will come back around. Per the Perrin family, every vintage goes through this stage and re-emerges at some point. You can drink them in their exuberant youth (which is my recommendation), or cellar them and hope for the best.
Less heavy and more lifted and aromatic than the regular bottling. Very sweet palate entry and then something nutty and rewarding with a hint of marzipan. Round and well balanced – though maybe not as refreshing as the regluar? It is bigger and softer.
Caractère plus nerveux et un rien plus fin que 2011, forme aussi riche, grande longueur, sur le miel de fleurs, l’abricot et un début de beurré qui fait partie du type. Grand vin. | 2019-04-20T11:10:15 | http://www.beaucastel.com/nos-vins/?vincod=Q501CF |

NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. oil fell nearly 2 percent on Thursday, despite a larger-than-expected decline in U.S. crude inventories, while global benchmark Brent was little changed, pushing the spread between the two to its widest in more than three years.
Brent crude losses were more limited, as the prospect that the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries will bring its supply-cut deal to a close by the end of the year has had a greater effect on the U.S. benchmark due to ongoing worries about U.S. infrastructure constraints.
“The market is concerned that in the longer term increases in oil production combined with refining problems and limited outbound pipeline capacity,” said Andrew Lipow, president of Lipow Oil Associates in Houston.
U.S. crude production has been rising to record high levels since late last year. In March, it jumped 215,000 bpd to 10.47 million bpd, a new monthly record, the EIA said on Thursday.
Brent crude futures for August ended down 14 cents to $77.56 a barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate July crude settled $1.17, or 1.7 percent, lower at $67.04 a barrel.
At one point, the premium for Brent over WTI surpassed $11 a barrel, the largest spread since March 2015. That spread has doubled in less than a month, as a lack of pipeline capacity in the United States has trapped a lot of output inland.
“The Brent/WTI is blowing out. I think there must be what looks like some capitulation going on in the spread between those two contracts,” Saxo Bank senior manager Ole Hansen said.
The wider premium makes U.S. crude exports more competitive than those linked to the Brent price, such as North Sea or West African grades of oil.
Brent had hit a three-week low below $75 a barrel on Monday after OPEC and its allies, including Russia, indicated they could adjust their deal to curb supplies and increase production.
That news helped boost Brent as it suggests a slightly less committal approach to adding barrels to the market.
“The fact that we saw the Saudi/Russia announcement last week could have attracted some interest in narrowing the spread, given that we were looking for some of the geopolitical risk (in Brent) to be removed, but that’s been overtaken by the domestic widening in crude prices in the U.S.,” Hansen said. | 2019-04-23T01:18:53 | https://www.reuters.com/article/us-global-oil/us-crude-tumbles-widening-brents-premium-to-3-year-high-idUSKCN1IW02J |

John, a tricky winger has been on a loan from Benfica. He had signed up to a season-long deal from Benfica last August. He has made a few appearances this season. Since the emergence of Paul Lambert, John has been unable to feature due to his hamstring injury that has sidelined him for months now. John recently returned to training recently, but rumours have it that Benfica wants to loan him to a Spanish side, Deportivo la Coruna.
Borthwick-Jackson, who is currently on a loan from Manchester united, is about to have his loan deal cancelled in a few days. Like Ola John, Borthwick-Jackson is yet to feature under Lambert. The 19-year old last appeared on the 3-2 defeat to Derby county at home in November.
Jed Wallace is likely to seal a move away from the club soon. Wallace has been in the club for a year and a half following his move from Portsmouth in 2015. Last season, he was sent on a loan to Millwall. He had featured in Lambert’s first game as manager of Wolverhampton Wanderers in which they dew 0-0 to Presto North end in November. A permanent move is very likely for him. | 2019-04-23T08:52:08 | https://www.helpthewolves.org/four-players-set-leave-wolves |
On February 2, 2017, the members of M.T.O. Shahmaghsoudi® Vancouver Center hosted an Open House with the intent of showcasing the newly renovated Center. Invitations were extended to contractors involved in the renovation process, and neighbors who patiently observed during this period. The program included introductions to M.T.O. History, Hazrat Pir’s Biography, M.T.O. Farsi School, M.T.O. Youth Group activities—including a musical performance by the Youth, presentations on Sufism: A Bridge Between Religions, and zikr. In order to share an aspect of what is practiced at M.T.O., the program was closed with an invitation to the 100 guests in attendance to take part in zikr. After the program, the presenters and guests gathered in the lower hall of the building where they enjoyed snacks, beverages, and had a chance to engage in conversation. The neighbors expressed their gratitude for having been invited and given the chance to see the outcome of the construction, and the contractors, along with their families, were delighted with the outcome of their contributions. | 2019-04-22T04:51:47 | http://www.mto.org/mto_usa_events/events/77/ |
This is just too much. Even as our federal government drowns in debt, military spending continues to balloon like crazy. And as if the trillions we owe weren’t enough already, the Pentagon just set aside another $500 million dollars to fund 5,000 more shotgun guys.
Seriously. Where does it end?
While the Department of Defense probably has some rationale for this exorbitant spending, the fact is that the $500 million price tag for these shotgun guys’ training, equipment, and shotgun bullets will fall on American taxpayers who had no say in this. Add onto that the cost of the dynamite and flamethrower guys the Pentagon hopes to have in the field by 2019, and it’s clear that America just might spend itself to death without our enemies abroad lifting a finger.
Already, hawkish politicians are leaping to defend the spending. John McCain’s office released a statement insisting that “21st-century threats demand 21st-century responses, and the biggest mistake we can make as a nation is to fail to adapt. Today, that means shotgun guys. Tomorrow, it might mean scuba guys.” But with fewer and fewer fighter guys deployed on the ground around the world, it’s hard to see how another 5,000 shotgun guys will actually make Americans any safer, even if additional funding is eventually allocated for unlimited ammo and grenades.
Whatever your politics, we can all agree that just blindly throwing money at national defense is only a recipe for a bigger and bigger deficit. And between initiatives to construct hover tanks to move the shotgun guys around, to upgrade their shotguns with poison and lightning bullets, and to develop jetpacks to outfit our existing shotgun guys, the Pentagon is on track to burn through billions more in the coming years. At the end of the day, you have to ask: Does America really need state-of-the-art missile turrets on the buildings that make shotgun guys more than we need schools and bridges?
One thing is definitely clear, though: Enough is enough. | 2019-04-26T15:35:34 | https://news.clickhole.com/out-of-control-the-pentagon-just-allocated-500-millio-1825120501 |

Hi, my name is Randi and I love creating confections that are both delicious and gorgeous! I’m the owner and cake designer behind Sugar Euphoria, a bakery and cake design studio located in Raleigh, NC where we create confections for all of life’s special moments. I’m married to my college sweetheart, Jeffery, and we recently welcomed home our daughter, Finley Alese.
Born and raised in Nassau, The Bahamas, I now live in a Raleigh, NC and have deemed my self a hybrid island/country girl. I’m a disciple of Jesus, a lover of sweet tea, and an aspiring yogi. I’ve recently become obsessed with lipstick, I love everything metallic, and have a ton of chambray blouses in my closet. One of my dreams is to travel the world, although my happy place is on a beach with a minty drink in hand. Oh, and I’m a Tar Heel through and through.
Get a good night’s rest! It’s been really difficult lately, as our family of two just became a family of three with the birth of our daughter Finley. However, I really try to get at least 7 hours a night. That way I feel refreshed in the morning and I can be my best self for my family, employees, and customers.
I’m sure it’s not really a secret, but I drink lots of water and only use Dove soap and Aveeno lotion. I have super sensitive skin and I find that being consistent with the products I use really helps. Also, making sure that my eyebrows are groomed makes me feel like superwoman!
Most days I’m in yoga pants, Crocs, and my Sugar Euphoria tee, so when it comes to looking more put together, jeans (I’m really loving the ‘boyfriend’ look), a simple t-shirt and a cute and colorful scarf is my go-to. I also love statement jewelry pieces, like large earrings or necklaces. I have really big hair, so I find that smaller, more delicate pieces of jewelry get lost under all of it. In terms of make-up, my look usually consists of a bright lipstick, eyeliner, and full brows.
Curry chicken,cole slaw and jasmine rice. It was one my mom’s go-to meals when I was growing up and reminds me of home. For the curry chicken, you just dump everything in the pot at once and let it simmer for a while – super easy. Plus, it makes for really delicious left-overs!
Whoa! This is a tough one! I follow so many beautiful and inspiring accounts, but I’m really loving The Little Big Company’s Instagram feed. They style really unique, fun, and beautiful dessert tables in Australia. We’ve teamed up with Suite Paper to launch a party & dessert styling service, so it’s really cool to see all of the amazing things that people are doing in that field.
Going to church on Sunday morning and then over to my in-laws’ house for Sunday dinner. The fellowship at church, the sermon, the time spent with my family, all of these things make me so joyful and energized for the week ahead.
A ton of washi tape (I think I have about 10 different colors) for my Simplified Planner, hand sanitizer, my wallet, chapstick, and cell phone, Oh, and an insane amount of edible glitter from a recent photo shoot.
Everywhere! When designing cakes that are on-trend, I find inspiration from articles of clothing, or a pattern from an envelop liner that I’ve come across, even from a floral arrangement and that’s what makes cake designing so much fun! Also, I pull a lot of inspiration related to flavor profiles from the Caribbean and other places I’ve visited.
We know you’re busy. How do you balance all of your work responsibilities with your home and personal life? Any tips for our readers?
I had no idea how hard it would be to balance baking and running a brick and mortar shop with my home and personal life once Finley was born. I thought I could just walk in to bakery, put her down and jump right into baking, then go home to cook, clean, and spend time with my husband, but that hasn’t been the case at all! Slowly, but surely I’m getting into a routine at work and at home. I’m learning to give myself grace when things don’t do exactly as planned and I think that is so crucial to juggling it all. I would also say to be selfish with your time. It is OK to tell people that you just can’t do something if it is going to conflict with the things you’ve made a priority.
What’s your favorite app for helping you do life?
Honey book has really helped me get my life together! I love that I can store all of the weddings, events, and orders in one place. Plus, which the Google Calendar integration I can add personal calendars to Honeybook. Now I have all of my appointments and activities in three different places – Honeybook, my Simplified Planner, and Google Calendar. It helps to make life a lot less chaotic. | 2019-04-26T12:15:52 | http://emilyleyblog.com/2016/06/simplicity-series-randi-smith/ |

Another Fashion Plates has come and gone! I didn't blog about it right away because I was waiting for the professional photos from the photographers to become available. Well here we are a few weeks later and only a sampling have been shared. So I can't wait any longer to share about this amazing event. . . photos or no photos!
I got involved with the MS Fashion Plates committee over 4 years ago because I thought it sounded like such a fun event and I wanted to volunteer for something different (another than a MS walk). Well little did I know that I would end up modeling that first year and the following two years too! So while this was my fourth year being involved in the event it was my FIRST time actually watching it from the audience and it was SO fun!
I actually wasn't allowed to model this year because a couple of years ago as a committee we decided to put a two year "term limit" on models in order to give more women a chance to participate. We have a long wait list. After two years you have to take a year off before being allowed to participate again. It has worked out well and brought a lot of new ladies into the event who are awesome!
For those of you who don't know all of the "models" are REAL WOMEN who have MS! It is the coolest event ever! We were the first in the country to do anything like this and now the ladies in Maine did one this year modeled after our event. Next year Long Island is planning to do one too!
The committee works for the entire year before the event to plan it. One of our biggest tasks is getting donations for our incredible raffle baskets. When I say basket I don't mean one little basket with a couple of things in it. They are usually overflowing onto the floor as you can see above. Each basket has a theme and is valued at well over $1,000. Sadly I did not win any but two of my friends from the committee did so that was exciting (and hopefully they will share)!
The event is done at lunch time and includes a meal prior to the program and fashion show! This year my mom came as well as three of my friends with their moms! We were the mother daughter table and I failed to get a photo (I was sick and out of work all week so I totally had to rally for the event).
Ports and Company, a local boutique, provides all of the clothing for the event. This year they brought these awesome lulu tattoos and since I'm on the committee I got to try them out too! All the models had them and they looked fabulous on the runway. They make such a fun accessory and they stayed on really well.
Mary Sue (her initials are MS - get it?!) was at the event too and we encouraged everyone to take a selfie with her and share it on social media!
For the finale of the fashion show all of the alumni models went on the stage. It was really fun to see all my friends up there and we got to cheer on the models as they walked the runway one last time!
Anthony Everett, host of the tv show Chronicle, returned as our emcee this year. He has a personal connection to MS as his mother had it and he is very committed to the cause.
After the show with my friends and fellow committee members! Love these ladies!
The fabulous Fashion Plates committee!!
The beautiful models including Lori Grande (first row, second person from left) who took a break from emceeing and instead walked the runway as a model! Not only that but Lori went public nationally with her personal MS story. You can read the article here. It is hard enough to go public when you are a regular person but I can only imagine how much harder it is when you are a public figure. Lori has been so brave to share her story and I hope it helps many people know that you can still be successful even when living with MS!
If you haven't had enough watch this video to get a glimpse of this fab event. You'll she some of the beautiful clothes too!
It really is hard to put this event into words. You just have to be there to experience it. It is like nothing else I've been involved in and I'm so proud to be a member of the committee that puts it all together!
For my local friends and readers please SAVE THE DATE! I would love to have you experience this event for yourself. You won't be disappointed! Oh and it is on Friday the 13th so you never know what to expect!
My mother has MS - - - and it completely changed who she was as a person.
It is wonderful you are so active - - -this autoimmune disorder needs to be cured.
Looks like it was a great event. Love the dress you wore.
I'm sad I had to miss Fashion Plates this year.
Next year, I want to attend & bring my Mom. I think she'd be impressed. Maybe someday she'd consider modeling.
Looks like such a fun night!! You look fantastic in that dress! | 2019-04-21T16:03:10 | http://www.jodibeansblog.com/2014/12/fashion-plates-2014.html |

The Wire is thought to have come about from crosses of the Old English Terrier, smooth coated Black and Tan Terriers of England, Bull Terriers, Greyhounds and Beagles.
They were used by hunters with the foxhounds to locate foxes when they went to ground by barking and so pinpointing the position of the fox for the huntsman.
They can be traced back to the middle of the 19th century when both smooth and broken coated were from the same origins and classed as one breed. Later, devotees of both coats bred like to like and developed the Wire and Smooth Fox Terrier as we know it today.
The breed Standard for this dog was drawn up in 1876 by Officers of The Fox Terrier Club and there are few differences with today’s Standard. Now the weight for dogs is more clearly stated and docking, though customary, is optional.
Fore and hind legs move straight forward and parallel. Elbows move perpendicular to body, working free of sides. Stifles turning neither in nor out. Good drive coming from well flexing hindquarters. | 2019-04-22T16:02:00 | http://cassarnon.com/?page_id=92 |

KISS (Keep It Simple and Sassy).
I have been writing so much about work wear fashion that I decided to post a look of the day. Here, I touch on a lot of key elements that I have discussed in prior posts.
Simple, sophisticated and appropriate for the office without making you feel as if you do not have any fashion sense.
This is part of 6 of the L.O.V.E series… a journey to find happiness came with heartache, lies, and betrayal. If your just reading this part go back and read part 1-5, understand why I am torn between Ryan and Tyrone.
I don’t diet, I eat clean. I have decided to change my lifestyle that does not make me live on a diet plan or diet program for the rest of my life. Eating right is a lifestyle change. I am not perfect, the last five days I have not been preparing food simply because I had no food in my house. I was eating out more and more. Even though I was working out I was not preparing my food. I love to workout means I need to eat clean as well.
Today is the annual World Meningitis Day. It is held to raise awareness about meningitis, getting vaccinated and providing support to those who have the disease.
Are you looking to make a big purchase this year? Do you want to buy a car, home or start a sole proprietorship? Congrats on your decision, but have you checked your credit report?
Come celebrate Earth Day 2014! Saving our planet is very important we don’t want our future generation to live on a dump instead we want them to have a place where they can flourish and grow. | 2019-04-21T20:11:29 | https://rateds4superwoman.com/2014/04/ |

Here is our latest ad. Comments, questions? Email, Facebook or Tweet us.
Here at FANNY LEE & TheTeam (fannylee.ca), we measure our performance by how satisfied / happy our customers are with our real estate services. It is the only thing that we brag, if we ever do that.
When we debuted our regular full page ad on Ming Pao Property GoldPage ( 明報地產金頁 ), we ran a series of "HAPPY CUSTOMERS" ad paying tributes to our wonderful clients.
他們 全都是 我們 的 Happy Customers.
THEY all are OUR Happy Customers.
Interested in learning what they say? You could watch and read their testimonials on our YouTube channel or web page.
When our clients search for their homes, they often take into consideration schools available in the area. In addition to the word of mouth reputation, Fraser Institute's (F.I.) school performance report card is a common benchmarking reference. As a realtor as well as a parent, I have keen interest in following their reports.
2011-2012 Ontario Secondary School Report Card was just released. Here is the list of the top 31 high schools in Ontario.
We plotted these 31 schools in Google Maps. At a quick glance, you can see that the majority are located in the Greater Toronto Area. 21 of them are GTA-based.
In addition to the Victoria 3 semi-detached we posted here, there is a Bishop's Gate at Victoria Square Churchill 1 semi-detached available for assignment sale.
The exciting Bishop's Gate at Victoria Square community (Woodbine & Woodbine Bypass) is here. Soon. If you missed the boat earlier, there is an opportunity for a Victoria 3 model semi-detached.
A GTA home sells at an average of $510,580 (TREB Feb.'13). Townhomes in the 905 area have steadily appreciated in price (+7.1% in last 12 months). However, homes at $500k - 530k with convenient locations are in high demand. If this is what you are looking for, we have just listed a house that may well be your future home.
71 Daniel Reaman Cres in the vibrant Thornhill Woods, near Dufferin & Hwy 7/ Hwy 407 offers great transportation access. This 1,850 s.f. 3 bedroom townhome enjoys a 9 ft ceiling on the main floor and a walk-out basement providing plenty of space to live and grow.
"Stricter mortgage lending guidelines that precluded government backed mortgages on home sold for over one million dollars and the City of Toronto's addition upfront land transfer tax arguablu played a role in the slower pace of luxury detached home sales."
We marked up on the summary.
* Number of resales dropped 15% compared to last year (leap year).
* The average GTA home resale price this February is $510,580.
* Over the past 12 months, average sale prices of semi-detached and townhouse increased by 5.6% and 6.7%, respectively. | 2019-04-21T06:58:00 | http://www.fannylee.ca/2013/03/ |

It can be tempting for researchers to apply for the grants with the biggest payoff; however, according to Memorial researchers Dr. Charles Mather, head, Department of Geography, and Dr. Barb Neis, a University Research Professor in the Department of Sociology, sometimes taking things one step at a time is a better long-term plan.
The pair has received a coveted Insight Grant from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) to complete a long-term, interdisciplinary study into Canada's Northern shrimp industry. Interestingly, both believe that their participation in other, smaller, funding programs contributed to their successful application.
"The tendency is to think that if you're doing research you should just apply to the councils, but, in fact, in a new area, it's good to do the background research, and build going forward," explained Dr. Neis. "There were three levels of funding that eventually led to our Insight Grant."
First, the Community University Research and Recovery Alliance (CURRA) (www.curra.ca) provided funds to hire a student researcher and a Conservation Corps intern. From there, Drs. Neis and Mather applied to the Harris Centre Applied Research Fund, an annual competition that provides up to $15,000 per research project. Their project assessing the economic development potential of various shrimp industry models was approved, and as a result, they were able to approach the Canadian Capture Fisheries Research Network (CCFRN) to provide the funds needed to hire a postdoctoral fellow, Dr. Paul Foley.
"CCFRN really only had funds for a fellowship, not field research, so the Harris Centre funding was able to close that gap," said Dr. Neis. "Together the funds were able to cover a much broader range of activity than one or the other."
"The previous projects were smaller-sized elements of the bigger question we wanted to address: 'How do we understand this province's fishery, post-cod?'" explained Dr. Mather.
With the preparatory projects under their belts, a group of committed community partners and the validation of the previous funding organizations, the final application to SSHRC fell together quite naturally.
"When the SSHRC reviewers responded to our application, they said that it looked like we had already gotten a lot of the work done . . . the project was likely to be successful," said Dr. Mather. "I think it's a question of impact. SSHRC is under pressure to show that social science research is having an impact."

Second implementation, counter B will get reset to zero with positive edge of reset and will stay there till reset is cleared. After reset is cleared (or 0) the counter will act as free running counter with positive edge of clock. So as long clock is running and reset is 0, counter will be incrementing till 2^8-1 (=127) value and then restart from 0.
Verilog RTL code examples for counter are discussed below. In this code we have implemented three free running counters with different reset scenarios.
First implementation, counter A is free running counter with positive edge of clock. So as long clock is running counter will be incrementing till 2^8-1 (=127) value and then restart from 0.
Third implementation, counter C will get reset to zero with negative edge of reset and will stay there till reset is set. After reset is set (or 1) the counter will act as free running counter with positive edge of clock. So as long clock is running and reset is 1, counter will be incrementing till 2^8-1 (=127) value and then restart from 0.
Verilog rtl code for above three counter are discussed below. | 2019-04-23T00:57:50 | http://fullchipdesign.com/verilog_free_counter_resetn.htm |

Published a 114-paged magazine (Twice). Kickstarted $6,000+ and then $10,000+.
Sold out of all 350 copies of Issue One—Issue Two is currently available online.
Read the full review & interview with SevenThirty DC here.
Skinny Dipper Magazine is an independent print publication that explores the intersection of art and adventure. We use photography, illustration, and writing to highlight stories of raw experience while examining the character of the mid-Atlantic region that formed the magazine’s artistic and intellectual perspective.
Issue One includes interviews with artists Tim Skirven and Kelly Sheridan, photography by Heather Cromartie and Pat Nolan, as well as writing from William Plews-Ogan, Samuel Dworkin and Christa Prater. It also contains original art work, photography and writing from me and my partners, John Schengber and TJ Rinoski.
We sold out of all 350 copies of Issue One within six months of publishing.
We were able to print these 114-paged, velvet-matte-bound magazines through a successful Kickstarter campaign that raised over $6,000.
In Issue Two we explored personal and social vulnerability in hopes of encouraging regional artists and thinkers to tackle the hard questions together. We expanded the scope to explore our world even more holistically: through society and the environment. We successfully raised over $10,000 through Kickstarter, and John, TJ and Lydia produced a tour de launch parties in RVA, DC, and NYC as well as a brand new line of merch.
Through these years, we’ve realized that the world needs us naked and deep dived into opening up, in the hopes of finding comfort and mutual vulnerability. With these two publications, we hope you’ll come skinny dipping too.
p.s. Enjoy some disposable film from our launch party for Issue One and Issue Two. At the former, Nesta played, and brought the roof down (well, the ceiling, actually) and the latter was the perfect blend of a big ole’ reunion and local craftsmanship. | 2019-04-18T14:52:28 | https://lynnlnakamura.com/skinny-dipper-magazine |

Unlike other biblical letters, John does not address his letter to any particular church or person. He writes to all Christians, of all ages, in every generation. He is writing to believers, true Christians, who are following the Truth. It is our greatest desire that the Lord would use this study in the Epistle of 1 John, to give you a hunger for His Word so that your joy will be full, your forgiveness complete, your faith unwavering, and your assurance of eternity secure. | 2019-04-21T04:37:59 | https://store.growingthrugrace.com/products/337-1-john-inductive-bible-study.aspx |
Why use Gtechniq C1.5 Silo Seal?
Silo Seal is very easy to apply. The high gloss finish will leave you yacht’s surface looking radiant whatever the weather at sea.
The sun’s ultraviolet rays are one of the harshest natural elements that you are faced with when looking after any boat, yacht or other marine vehicle, especially when it comes to premature dulling of paintwork and decks. That is why the UV absorption filters in Gtechniq C1.5 are fantastic, they act as a barrier allowing you to spend more time sailing your yacht than cleaning it.
One coating is sufficient for a normal yachting season, but more frequent applications are recommended for areas that are more exposed to UV rays – particularly those that are finished in darker colours whose pigments are more prone to UV degradation.
C1.5 is water, dirt and stain repellent making wash downs both easier and less time consuming. Used in conjunction with UV-Wash and P1M Nano Composite Polish, C1.5 will contribute towards significantly lower maintenance costs as your gel or paint finish will retain its quality for longer through better protection.
On top of that, it removes the need to use harsh cutting compounds and cleaning chemicals to restore prematurely dulled finishes. Maintained correctly Silo Seal will remain on a surface for approximately 3 months. | 2019-04-21T06:30:05 | http://www.inspired-automotive.co.uk/product/gtechniq-c1-5-silo-seal-100ml/ |

Theresa May's recent tough talk as home secretary about "getting the immigration system back under control" has bolstered the Conservative party's support from anti-immigration groups such as Migration Watch, but also forced business groups such as Universities UK to object that the "government's tough rhetoric threatens to undermine the multibillion-pound market in foreign students".
This government will probably bend to business interests over nationalist ideals – but they must look reluctant, in order to retain sufficient support among white British working people. Anti-immigration rhetoric is a foil for the party's elitist image, and plays off internal factions while deflecting criticisms onto opponents.
So the Conservatives have a good problem: their net migration target might fail, but if so they will get more support than if it succeeded. They might look clumsy, but they could not have planned a better outcome. Did they?
The Conservatives' immigration stance arose from the scramble for the anti-immigration vote during the late 2000s. Rising immigration under New Labour had generated a backlash that breathed life into the far right of UK politics, turning the British National party (BNP) into an electoral worry for both main parties. Gordon Brown's declining Labour government desperately courted BNP sympathisers by promising "British jobs for British people". The Conservatives' counter suit was its 2010 election campaign promise to cut annual net migration from hundreds of thousands to "the tens of thousands".
This battle for the anti-immigration vote bequeathed two legacies. One was the electoral destruction of the BNP, in a hollow victory for its ideological opponents: the party was defeated not because its anti-immigrant ideas were rejected, but because these ideas were taken over by the mainstream parties. Indeed, the other legacy of the fight for the right in 2010 was that the Conservative party pinned its flag to an anti-immigration mast.
Net migration targets are ineffective because several immigration channels are beyond control. Freedom of exit defines liberal democracies and therefore emigration, the other half of net migration, cannot be capped. European Union migration to the UK cannot be hindered, and asylum and family migrants have recourse to the courts.
The Conservatives have painted themselves into a corner because the remaining immigrants – workers and students – are needed by the UK economy. As the Migration Observatory shows, student inflows have grown fastest, partly because inflated foreign fees are shoring up a tertiary education sector faced with funding cuts. Cutting student numbers further strangles revenue and recruitment streams. This would alienate the base of any self-consciously pro-business government; predictably, some in the cabinet have opposed the targets, including the industry-beleagered business secretary and universities minister.
In this context, the home secretary's rhetoric sounds blustery. The former Cabinet Office chief economist, Jonathan Portes, has detailed how May's tough talk to the centre-right Policy Exchange thinktank stretched the facts. Vince Cable may be mollified by the idea of interviewing "considerably more than 100,000" prospective foreign students every year, but can the government afford to indulge the far right with an expensive inquisition in a time of austerity? Fighting words aside, ditching the quixotic net migration target might soon be the least worst option.
Why are the Conservatives in this position? Perhaps they did not foresee the consequences of their election promises. But, intriguingly, those consequences are politically optimal: by reaching for the impossible on net migration, the Conservatives can burnish their nationalist credentials without ultimately taking action that would jeopordise their pro-business, light-touch-regulator image. Such happy mistakes are rare. Maybe it is no mistake.
Perhaps the net migration target has been set up to be knocked down, so as to satisfy mutually incompatible political demands on the Conservative party. This is a text-book tactic. Rightwing social conservatives want less immigration so as to preserve national identity, but rightwing economic liberals want cheap, pliable foreign workers. Leftwing social liberals see migration as a right, but leftwing economic conservatives want less immigration to protect native wages and working conditions. The immigration divide is therefore not between the traditional left and right, but between liberals and conservatives. To hold the centre, a government must satisfy both wings of its own party, and court strange bedfellows across the aisle.
In other words, when faced with an impossible task, one option is to look busy, avoid sudden moves, and pass the buck. If the promised immigration cuts are scuttled, mutinous Liberal Democrats and cash-strapped universities are easy scapegoats. Viewed from this perspective, the UK Conservative party's net migration cuts look less doomed to fail than designed to do so. | 2019-04-24T14:26:31 | https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/jan/14/immigration-policy-designed-to-fail |

At a press conference in Los Angeles on Tuesday, May 24th, Judas Priest announced what is to be its final world tour. The first North American date kick off October 12, 2011 in San Antonio, Texas, with Thin Lizzy and Black Label Society as support. Guitarist Richie Faulkner, who was recently hired on as K.K. Downing's replacement, was present along with singer Rob Halford, guitarist Glen Tipton, bassist Ian Hill, and drummer Scott Travis. Seated in front of the gathering of press and media, members of Judas Priest answered questions regarding the upcoming farewell tour, a forthcoming album (of which three tracks have already been mixed), and how new recruit Faulkner fits into the fold.
"He satisfies everybody's need for how Priest should sound," said guitarist Glen Tipton of the 31 year-old Faulkner, whose recent job was guitarist of the Lauren Harris Band . Tipton added, “Some songs I haven't played for thirty-five years, Richie's got 'em down. It's great."
So, is this tour really farewell for the Metal Gods?
"It will probably be the last chance that most people will get to see Judas Priest live. We want to go out one final time and play our songs, just be together with the audience," bassist Ian Hill commented on the tour, which is predicted to last 18 months.
"There's an area in show business where you really need to look at what you've done and be proud of it and make that exit in a really classy way. And that's what we're attempting to do," added Rob Halford. "We still have this tremendous love for what we do: heavy metal music," continued the singer, fondly. "And the fans that support us are a constant inspiration." | 2019-04-19T09:20:56 | http://knac.com/article.asp?ArticleID=7953 |
Smt. Meira Kumar, Hon’ble Speaker Lok Sabha, Sh. Brij Behari Lal Butail, Hon’ble Speaker, Himachal Pradesh Vidhan Sabha, Dr. Charanjit Singh Atwal Hon’ble Speaker Punjab Vidhan Sabha, Shri Jagat Singh Negi Hon’ble Deputy Speaker, Sh. Prem Kumar Dhumal, Hon’ble Leader of Opposition, My colleagues in the Council of Ministers, Members of Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha, Chief Parliamentary Secretaries and Hon’ble Members of Vidhan Sabha; distinguished guests and officers both of the State and Centre Government.
I am extremely honored to have this privilege to address you in this prestigious moment when this premier Legislative institution is celebrating its 50th year of existence. This is a precious moment for us because this function underlines this Assembly’s successful glorious fifty years. During these five decades of its functioning, the State’s Legislative Assembly has established sound precedents and traditions and has reinforced democracy as a whole. It is pertinent to mention here that the Hon’ble Members of this Legislative Assembly have always maintained high dignity and conventions of this House for which we all should be proud.
MPs and MLAs are legislators and are not part of the executive. Their job as elected representatives of the people is to hold the government, whether it is the state government or the Central Government, accountable.
As Legislators, we have the very great responsibility of representing our citizens. Now a days the aspirations of the people have become very high, hence the duties of the Legislators, in the present scenario, have not only been multiplied but have also become complex as well. Primarily, the Legislators are supposed to be constituency based and they are required to take every care of the interest of their constituents but while doing this, they should not ignore their duties towards the nation and the State to which they belong. Legislatures are the forum where the desires, needs, emotions, expectations etc. of the masses are being put forth by their elected representatives. Legislators are the constitutional link between the Government and the people, and it is through this that the aspirations and needs of the people are communicated. If this point of contact between people and the State was not functioning freely and successfully, then our system would have failed. We should effectively use Legislature as a forum for raising the grievances of the people, so as to ensure them a decent and dignified existence.
Presently there is a need to create ideal conditions for all our citizens, regardless of their caste, creed and religion. This could only be achieved if vast segments of the masses, who have been kept out of the main stream of our socio-political life, enjoy justice and equality and other democratic rights, for which my Government is committed. Our State has achieved many a milestones in the field of strengthening the economy of the Pradesh and this could have been possible due to positive and healthy suggestions made by the Hon’ble Members on the floor of the House while deliberating on issues of public interest.
This has always remained our effort and concern that each and every area of the Pradesh and strata of the society should be developed fully and in a balanced manner. We are satisfied that we have come very close to this target by pursuing practical and positive approach. We are proud that in many fields our State is a role model.
Today, we are celebrating the golden jubilee of this House. Fifty years are surely a mile stone in the history of an institution, it gives us an opportunity to reflect from where we started, where presently we are what our goals to be are achieve. Himachal Pradesh Legislative Assembly has a long history, which began from the year 1925 when this Council Chamber was constructed. Right since the British era many issues were debated in this House to solve the problems faced by the people of the Country. When Central Legislative Assembly used to meet here many important resolutions of far reaching implications were adopted. Among these an important resolution to empower Indian women by conferring voting rights to them was moved by Pt. Moti Lal Nehru which was unanimously adopted in this Hall. Hence, it was a historic step in the direction of removing gender disparity in the exercise of this political right. This resolution was moved a year after the British women got their right to vote in the House of Commons. Similarly Vithal Bhai Patel was elected as the first Indian President of the Central Council.
I have been a part of this House for the last three decades and many memories as Chief Minister, Leader of the Opposition and as a Member of this Legislative Assembly are still fresh in my mind. I have never seen that standard of debate in the Legislative Assembly or has any unruly conduct for a Member or group of a Members let the dignity of this House lowered. I also want to inform the distinguished gathering that the time loss due to disruption in this House is almost nil and the House conducts its business smoothly during the seasons. Moreover, there is hardly any loss of precious time of the question hour in our State as is the case elsewhere in the Country.
This trend of disruption of the question hour is growing day by day which is not a healthy sign for our parliamentary democracy. Most of the time, due to frequent disruptions, of the question hour in the Parliament/State Legislatures is wasted instead of eliciting information on important public issues from the Government Question hour, the first and perhaps the most informative hour of the day when Parliament/State Legislatures are in session has been the worst victim of disruptions by members of Parliaments and State Legislatures. This rising tendency of disruptions of the proceedings of the House needs to be curbed and this can be achieved with the collective efforts of the Legislators.
I am confident that our endeavour to collectively address the challenges today faced by the Legislators will prove to be rewarding. I am sure that this August Assembly will greatly benefit from the valuable suggestions given by Smt. Meira Kumar, Hon’ble Speaker Lok Sabha in her address. With these words I once again heartily welcome this distinguished gathering. | 2019-04-23T14:16:47 | https://thenewshimachal.com/2013/10/chief-minister-virbhadra-singh-speech-at-vidhan-sabha-during-golden-jubilee-celebration/ |

Final Fantasy XV on the go is soon becoming a reality. The title arrives next month for mobile phones in its entirely re-designed form.
I'm actually interested in trying this, but I don't have a strong desire to play it until all the episodes are out.
This is really interesting. I don't know how many people were proclaiming that FFXV had a great story, but I'm sure that there were enough fans of it to warrant this type of a release. I know Square has been looking into how to monetize their IP more extensively between major releases, so it doesn't hurt to check out additional content. Honestly I'd rather see some not so AAA rpgs that just have a great story and battle mechanics released on a semi regular basis, but it's probably too much to ask at this point.
I've been waiting for FFXV to be released on PC so I'll finally get a chance to see the modern FF soon. | 2019-04-20T10:11:21 | https://forums.rpgamer.com/discussion/26865 |
Is it a Sparrow? Is it a Wren?
How many times have you heard a twitter in the trees and looked up to see a colourful (or not so colourful) little bird singing on a branch? Well, truth be told, most of the time I don't see it, I just hear it. But either way, I can rarely tell what kind of bird it is. Apart from your common magpie or pigeon, I'm pretty useless when it comes to naming birds.
If you are the same as me, but are interested in learning more about the birds in your area, then you can always attend an 'in the field' bird identification workshop at the Wildfowl and Wetlands trust.
The course will be taught by the photographer, Andy Bunting. As well as participating in a bird watching session, you will develop your skills for bird identification by learning the tools of the trade. Find out what sounds each species make, see the subtle differences in markings, and find out which are the best tools to use - i.e. binoculars - for taking on the hobby of bird watching. | 2019-04-18T13:39:09 | https://www.weekendnotes.co.uk/bird-identification-workshop/ |

The main reason these loan MERS is trying to foreclose need to not be allowed to administratively foreclose is you will find that with VA loans that were placed into Ginnie Mae pools in the Mortgage Backed Securities program, and are now currently being service by Wells Fargo Bank are being done illegally because the Note was long ago separated from the Note as it was signed endorse in blank and relinquish to Ginnie Mae.
The truth is that once the loan where place into the pools there could not be a lien situation at all against the properties. MERS is not the Beneficial in Washington Mutual VA & FHA because the bank did relinquish the loans and now the bank is dead as in failed bank and is no longer a member of MERS as it cannot perform bank activity and Ginnie Mae who is suppose to be the owner of the Notes is not a member of MERS as a Lender so MRES does not have un-broken chain of ownership!
Just remember this and that is most all FHA & VA loan a put into a Ginnie Mae mortgage backed securities pool, however they are dealing with non enforceable contracts. The illegal foreclosures of government loan have contracts that are not recorded because party that cannot legally claim the function the contract demand it function like be a leader.
This entire scam by Ginnie Mae is base on a Blank Note that they are not inserted into, because the US law says Ginnie Mae is not a lender. So as MERS claims they are acting for the current lender yet Ginnie Mae is suppose to be in physical possession of all the Blank Notes, how then does MERS claim a beneficial right for lender or assign when you and every should know the Note being blank is void of any legal name of an owner of the document because it is blank.
So if we the military in the case of VA loan are being abused by the Federal Government explain why President Obama cannot get the housing crisis under control because Ginnie Mae who is wholly owned by we the people in that it is 100% the Federal Government’s property. If you can get your own company to follow the law and have looked the other way, is the reason why whoever is the party claim to be the “holder in due course” need to bring the Note to court and show where that Note has been endorsed to the party making the claim plus some type of bill of sale.
You can only have a lien if your owned a debt and at not time in the history of Ginnie Mae has a home owner every owned Ginnie Mae a dime because by law Ginnie Mae cannot originate or buy or sell a home mortgage loan.
I can see the judge asking Mr. MERS who is Mr. Blank on these Notes and how do you represent BLANK, if it endorsement which is referred to as a BLANK NOTE because it does not list who the owner is.
So how does a entity that cannot purchase a home mortgage loan as order by the US Congress out in Oregon claim its owed a financial debt from anybody went it never borrowed anyone money or purchase the debt from anybody?
The answer is it cannot happen!
Every citizen in Oregon that had or had a Washington Mutual Bank or that the bank purchase your loan from another bank or mortgage company and it was foreclosed or is going through foreclosure and you had or have a VA or FHA loan simply ask for the courts to look at the Notes because they are all Blank and MERS nor anyone else could foreclose on your home. Crime does not pay as long as the court systems work!
Start getting ready to move your families back home. To my fellow military families Hua!

Active adult communities are real estate developments that offer independent, relatively maintenance-free living to residents aged 55 and over. In “age restricted” active adult communities, 80% of homeowners must be 55 and over, while “age-targeted” communities simply market to the 55+ crowd.
Many of the residents continue to work part or full time, which is why the term “active adult retirement communities” is less accurate. The residents are not opposed to children (or grandchildren!) either. Rather, the 55+ component simply assumes that people at the same stage of life probably share a few leisure-time interests and pursuits.
At its most basic level, “active” means independent, so active adult communities offer no assistance with daily living activities, such as meals, medication, housekeeping and personal care. They do usually present a variety of on-site activities and easy access to natural or cultural attractions, shopping, nearby medical facilities, and large metropolitan areas.
But active adult communities are not simply real estate. Residents are also choosing a community and a lifestyle. Today’s active adult communities go beyond the old stereotypes of shuffleboard and knitting (although those activities are often still on the schedule for those who love them). Some communities promote a resort or vacation feeling through activities and amenities, while others emphasize social or cultural life.
Arts and crafts and social pastimes include scrapbooking, painting, ceramics, mahjongg, bridge, movie nights, afternoon tea, and holiday cookouts and gatherings. Some active adult communities also offer continuing education classes, such as bird-watching, history and genealogy, while others partner with nearby universities to offer academic classes and cultural events.
If all of this organized activity seems more like a hyperactive community, rest assured that active adult communities emphasize friendliness and relaxation as well, balancing time at home and hanging out with neighbors and friends. | 2019-04-23T14:54:13 | https://www.charlottemove.com/Pages/ActiveAdultCommunities.aspx |

But although it’s fast by comparison, it’s still slow enough that I’d highly recommend changing the bulb over to a broad-spectrum LED light source. If the machine jams while you are asleep you could be likely to wake up to melted/ruined film that you can never get back — or worse a fire.
It’s a nice setup. With three big drawbacks. But all are solvable.
Super 8 runs at 72 frames/foot. 50 foot rolls are all that’s available these days [3600 frames]. Some old rolls came in 200 foot lengths [14400 frames]. I have a few spliced together 400 foot reels (of regular 8, at 80 frames per foot). One or two reels won’t pose much of a problem. But when they start adding up, it’s going to put a lot of wear on the camera. A good pro DSLR will handle between 150k-200k shots before the shutter gives out. If you do this a lot, I recommend getting a good machine vision camera. About the same $$ as a used consumer SLR, and still mre than HD capable.
Heat. The projectors are not meant to run cool. They rely on the film moving past the gate fast to keep the heat from damaging the film. When you do freeze frame, they kick on extra fans. Luckily, many of the old bulbs can be replaced with plug in LED modules. McMaster-Carr had them for my old Bell&Howell projector. They might for others too. The other upside is that LED bulbs will last way longer than a straight replacement bulb will.
Lastly, diffusion. Not all projectors have adequate diffusion between the bulb and the film for evenly lighting the frame. This isn’t much of a problem when capturing reversal films (like Kodachrome or Ektachrome). But becomes critical when you want to capture reversal films (like Vision3). A bit of frosted glass or a couple of diffusion gels (with a LED bulb of course) would solve this cheaply and easily.
I LOVE seeing projects like these! Great job!
PS: Extra style points for shooting Pentax digital.
Hello Hubang, did your old Bell&Howell projector have a DLH bulb in it? If it did can you give me a part number for the LED module that you got from McMaster-Carr. I’m very interested in converting my 466ZB Belland Howell projector to a LED lightsource since the OEM bulbs now sell for $100+.
No, it was a DLD bulb. It also looks like McMaster-Carr stopped stocking LED projector bulbs. At least, I can’t find it any more.
Great hack if I ever saw one. I have to wonder about the camera’s shutter life, though. Even if it is good for 100,000 exposures, doing this sort of thing will chew that up fast.
@Charles: I think part of the charm of this is that the particles transferred over to the film. It really maintains the look and feel that would come from watching that 8mm film.
I do think that John’s idea would definitely be worth a look. I had a projector jam on me and melt some priceless family film. Since then, I’ve switched anything I have over to LEDs. That might be worth a writeup and submission in and of it self….
what is the shutter life of a digital camera? if its 5million than not big deal, 1mil is another story.
dude you should start a transfer service. make your hack pay for itself and then some!
Just did the same thing without modifying a projector. Just project onto a matte white card, roughly 3 feet from the projector. Most low-end models can be or will naturally be focused at this range. Get a decent video camera and set it up parallel to the projector. Zoom and focus (I found it easier to focus on a sheet of paper with black and white print before runing the film). Correct cropping, etc later.
I have to agree the limited lifetime of a DSLR shutter mechanism (the top of the line D3 or 1D are rated for ~300,000 actuations) really make this more academic than practical.
The movie studios use some kind of purpose built scanner to digitize old films (saw on some television program).
Instead of LEDs, you could put an external xenon flash in the projector. Less power, less expensive, and much brighter.
I built a stepper motor attachment for a negative scanner, so I could do a dozen standard-8mm films.
Then I chanced upon someone who did it professionally, with frame-by-frame DSLR imaging for $20/reel. In the end I just got them to do it as my own effort would have dragged out for a long time. I had the option of getting them on a playable DVD or as the raw frames in an AVI, I elected for the latter so I could post-process them myself.
Better to just ‘get it done’ and preserve your family history NOW rather than put it off as a ‘gonna do’ because you never know if you won’t be able to do it – eg. house fire, film degradation or just plain misplacing or losing the films.
This is how I did it about 12 years ago: A crappy VHS-ish camcorder lol.
It’s nice having the actual projector running as the background noise in the film transfer, hearing the random sprocket pops, etc… I may re-do these with an HD camera soon, though.
What an idiot…That DSLR will be trashed after transferring one single movie. I would use a hi-res web camera, not something with a shutter.
Thank you for your thoughtfully worded advice, poot, but I dispute your poorly-thought-out assertion that I’m an idiot.
This was a retired dSLR with 50k shots on it already. The 17k more this project took isn’t significant. Want to put a number on it? 17k shots out of 250k expected, on a body worth maybe $200. That would be $14 well spent.
$14 is cheaper than my time it would require me to even find a ‘hi res web camera’, even if it would be suitable. Which, BTW, out of the box it would NOT be.
This is an excellent idea. One idea for the shutter is to perhaps defeat the internal shutter on the camera and just attache a rotating shutter within the projector mechanism (or use the shutter on the projector to begin with). Don’t let all these people get you down with their problematic observations. It’s people like you who just find a way to make things work.
I’ve worked with a WorkPrinter 8mm transfer machine which uses synch pulses between the machine and our crappy DV camera. Looking at the mechanisms it’s just a few bridge contacts on a rotating wheel, a 20Kohm resistor and a yellow rca cable lol. ANYHOW I’m rambing, thanks for the inspiration!
how about combining GregTheSquare’s advice with Rachel’s. defeat of the shutter on your camera, throw the whole setup under a black cloth or something to prevent outside light from getting in, and replace your projector lamp with a xenon flash connected to the camera. The shutter is always open, but no light hits the sensor until the flash fires. This solves concerns about backlight heat makes the setup a lot quieter (no fans, no shutter click), provides better lighting, uses less power, increases lifespan… ok i’ll stop. What do you think?
Genius! Did you project the image straight to the sensor of your pentax or did you have the projector lens on there?
Brilliant Sir. Thanks for giving us hope to preserve the 8MM Film that was part our family and something I have to tell my children about their Grandpa -ma.

This is not medical advice , I am posting this for educational and informational purposes only. This compliments the other post I did on recovering from endotoxemia.
Is caused by oxidative stress, inflammaton and infection. Those can also lead to Nitrosative Stress which can cause superoxide, and peroxynitrite which are very damaging to the body especially the brain and nervous system. These are a form of Reactive Nitrogen Species. (RNS) Nitric Oxide dependent reactions lead to formation of RNS through the reaction of Nitric Oxide and O2-, peroxynitrite (ONOOH) is formed and leads to oxidation, nitrosation (addition of NO), or nitration (addition of NO2) .
Nitric Oxide is formed from Nitric Oxide Synthase (NOS) which can also produce O2-. Other sources are Xanthine Oxidase, NADPH oxidase, and Myeloperoxidase. There are three types of NOS, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS, NOS2), endothelium NOS (eNOS, NOS3), neuronal NOS (nNOS, NOS1) They no longer use the numerical references to NOS because it inaccurately described them.
Nitric Oxide is a signaling molecule. When functioning properly it is involved with the homeostasis of our blood pressure. Nitric Oxide is released by the endothelial of the smooth muscle to promote smooth muscle relaxation. This increases the diameter of blood vessels to prevent high blood pressure. Oxidative stress and nitrosative stress can deplete NO causing high blood pressure.
Nitric Oxide has antithrombic effects. So if NO is depleted or production is inhibited by free radicals then excessive blood clotting can occur. Impaired NO production can lead to hypertension, preclampsia, diabetes, obesity, erectile dysfunction, and migraine headaches.
NO is generated as a normal part of an immune response. White blood cells known as phocytes have both inducible and inhibitory enzymes to control NO. NO secreted as part of the immune response uses NOS free radical properties and it is toxic to bacteria, causing DNA damage and degredation of the iron sulfur center.
NO increases expression of superoxide dismutase which catalyzes superoxide anion to hydrogen peroxide. NO upregulates Heme oxygenase 1 and ferritin expression which reduce anion concentrations in blood vessels. This prevents blood vessels from leaking. Inflammation , endotoxins, farm chemicals and many other things can inhibit this. This leads to hardening of the arteries because the body will use cholesterol and calcium to plug the leaks.
NO helps convert thiol groups including cysteine residues in proteins, to form s-nitrosothiols. Thiols are organo sulfur compounds. Our bodies need sulfur for many things and all cell need it. If sulfite levels get high from BH4 , CBS issues, gut dysbiosis or candida it could interfere with the proper function of the thiol groups. S-nitrosylation is an important mechanism for dynamic, post translational regulation of most all major classes of proteins. Post translational regulation is control of gene expression.
Guanylyl known as the NO receptor. Activate guanylyl cyclase enables the production of the cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) . cGMP activates and regulates the enzyme G-kinase. G-kinase modifies proteins in cell through phosphorylation of the myosin light chain kinase which causes smooth muscle relaxation.
Chronic expression of NO can lead to cancer of the epithelium, juvenile diabetes, multiple sclerosis, arthritis, and ulcerative colitis. NO is an oxidising free radical and does cause some oxidative stress on the bodies membranes and tissues. Sustained No production can result in tissue toxicity but most damage is caused from NO causing peroxynitrite formation.
NO protects organs from ischemia, but can contribute to reperfusion injury by increasing inflammation and oxidative damage.
NO forms complexes with transitional metal ions, including those regularly found in metalloproteins. The main trap for no is oxyhemoglobin (oxygen loaded form of hemoglobin) , which binds to NO faster then oxygen. The reaction produces methaemoglobin other NO sensitive metalloproteins are NOS, Cytochrome P450, Ferritin, Ceruloplasmin, mitochondrial respiratory chain. NOS is discussed later, Cytochrome P450 is a very important for detoxing the body. Ferritin helps regulate iron homeostasis. Ceruloplasmin is a copper-carrying protein that is involved in iron metabolism. Mitochondrial respiratory chain is involved in cellular energy.
As NO rises it oxidizes hemoglobin. In healthy individuals about 1% of total hemoglobin has been oxidized mainly by NO. Excess oxidative stress causes excess NO. which can make methemoglobin higher. Methemoglobin contains Fe3 which cannot bind to oxygen. Curcumine and Lactoferrin reduces Fe3 levels in the body. Curcumin can make you anemic if taken for too long because it can also chelate the good iron from the body. Excess methemoglobin is called acquired methemoglobinemia. This can cause skin discoloration, shortness of breath, lethargy, headache, dizzyness, brain fog. Methylene blue helps with this because it is caused by sepsis but those who are G6PD deficient cannot take methylene blue it could kill them.
Some causes of high NO levels.
Prolonged or frequent immune system activation. Which is common in those with CFS, MS, and Fibromyalgia. The most common cause is viral infection. But any number of infections can cause this especially mycoplasma. So to reduce peroxynitrite levels it is important to reduce the viral load on the body, calm the immune system and reduce inflammation.
Low levels of NO will cause low levels of ATP which means the cells would have less energy. This also disables autophagy preventing recycling of mitochondria.
NOS is calcium dependent. iNOS is primarily expressed in macrophages a type of white blood cell of the immune system that engulfs and digest cellular debris, foreign substances, microbes, cancer cells and any other cell that does not the type of proteins specific to healthy cells. They are found in almost all tissues in the body. They are expressed primarily after induction by cytokines(small proteins involved in cell signaling) , especially IFN-Y and lippopolysaccharide (endotoxins) . Lippopolysaccharide is abbreviated LPS. Because iNOS contributes to inflammation and destroys parasites and infections it is a major contributor in septic shock. Excessive iNOS can lead to vascular permeability.
Reactive oxygen species works together with reactive nitrogen species to damage cells. Reactive oxygen species produces hydrogen peroxide which can be very damaging to the body. Reactive nitrogen produces peroxynitrite which is also very damaging to the body. Normally the body can neutralize them but when under excess oxidative stress from emotional stress, physical stress, infection, toxins or from nutritional deficiencies the body cannot neutralize and detox the reactive nitrogen and reactive oxygen species. It is a cycle that can be difficult to break. The inflammation that is caused prevents the body from being able to detox and also the metabolic issues it causes puts an even heavier burden on the body because it produces toxins adding to the burden. This is why it is very important to address the nutrient deficiencies caused by illness or toxins and to reduce inflammation.
Endothelial NOS (eNOS) is primarily responsible for the generation of NO in vascular endothelium. Endothelium is a monolayer of cells lining the interior surface of blood vessels. No produced by eNOS in the vascular endothelium plays a crucial role in regulating vascular tone, cellular proliferation (process that results in an increase in the number of cells), leukocyte adhesion (white blood cell), and platelet aggregation. eNOS is dependent on calcium and synthesizes NO from L-arginine and oxygen which binds to the heme group of eNOS. Heme is the part of red blood cells that contain the iron which is needed to transport oxygen. The binding of Tetrohydrobiopteran (BH4) is essential for eNOS to generate NO. In the abscense of BH4 which many toxins like glyphosate, mercury and endotoxins can cause eNOS shifts from a dimeric to a monomeric form, thus becoming uncoupled. This causes a production of superoxide anion by eNOS instead of NO. It is a highly reactive free radical that damages the cardiovascular system. This also causes phenylketonuria, ammonia build up in the body because phenylalanine can no longer be recycled. Eating things high in phenylalanine like meat or potatoes will increase the ammonia levels making a person suffering from this sicker, their urine will get dark and smell and when very bad their body odor will be strong.
eNOS causes a reduction in Cationic Amino Acid Transporter 2 (Cat2) which mediates the L-arginine transport needed for raised NO production.
When functioning properly eNOS prevents hardening of the arteries and damage of the blood vessles. It has anti-artheriosclerotic effects. Oxidative stress can cause it to become uncoupled causing many health problems because this also increase reactive oxygen species. This is the one that will cause issues throughout the body because many metabolic pathways will be effected. There are natural ACE inhibitors that will reduce the damage when this happens. Remember the goal is homeostasis. Once the issues that have caused it’s uncoupling have been addressed focus on healing. To continue to take allopathic or natural things to treat symptoms keeps you on a hamster wheel because you have to address the cause. Treating the symptoms will not resolve the problem it will only reduce the symptoms. Enos is very important to the healing of soft tissue throughout the body so it is very important for all pathways to be functioning. Through indirect processes fluoroquinolones also inhibit BH4 and interfere with eNOs. BH4 is involved in the production of serotonin, and L-Tyrosine so inhibition or uncoupling can have dramatic effects on our brains.
Neuronal NOS which used to be known as NOS1 is constitutively(always active) expressed in the central(brain and spinal cord) and peripheral (nerves throughout the rest of the body) neurons and some other cell types.
nNOS functions include synaptic plasticity in the Central Nervous System, central regulation of blood, and vasodilation via nitrergic nerves.
Peroxynitrite is formed when NO reacts with superoxide (O2-) which it readily combines with. The higher the levels of NO present the great the risk of it reacting with super oxide to form peroxynitrite. Peroxynitrite can cause oxidation to hemoglobin causing anemia.
When peroxynitrite is formed it depletes the bioactivity of NO which effect the bodies ability to regulate blood pressure, platelet activation, and vascular cell signaling. This can result in high blood pressure, and hardening of the arteries. When NOS enzymes have limited L-arganine or BH4 they my produce superoxide instead of NO. The can be transformed to peroxynitrite. BH4 reacts with peroxynitrite and is oxidized to biopterin. BH4 is also oxidized by neopterin which is an indication of an immune response. This causes inflammation which in turn can stimulate more peroxynitrite synthesis.
Peroxynitrite can react with other components of the cell including lipids(fats), thiols(organosulfur compounds) , amino acid residues(an amino acid contained within a peptide or protein) , DNA bases (adenine, cytosine, guanine,thymine) , and antioxidants.
Peroxynitrite can react with other molecules to form additional types of RNS including nitrogen dioxide (N2O2) as will as other chemically reactive free radicals which include peroxynitrous acid, hydroxyl radical, carbon dioxide, carbanate radical and dinitrogentrioxide.
Peroxynitrite can react directly with proteins that contain transition metal centers. Therefore it can modify proteins such as hemoglobin, myoglobin, and cytochrom C by oxidising heme into it’s corresponding ferrous forms. Two of the most common reactions is cystein oxidation and tyrosine nitration. These reactions affect protein structure and function so have the potential to cause changes in the catalytic activity of enzymes, altered skeletal organization and impaired cell signal transduction. So it can hinder the bodies ability to heal and examples of illnesses caused by changes in the catalytic activities of enzymes are illnesses such as porphyria and phenylketonuria. Also with the cells ability to communicate impaired all heck can break loose.
Both NO and peroxynitrite can oxidize the iron-sulfur protein based enzymes in the Krebs cycle (citric acid cycle). The iron-sulfur protein is known as Aconitase. Krebs cycle is involved in producing cellular energy. It is the metabolic pathway that connects carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism. So problems with this pathway would have dramatic effects throughout the body. So we can see the importance of reducing peroxynitrite levels.
No reacts with nitrogen dioxide (NO2) presumably instead of superoxide to form Dinitrogen Trioxide (NO3) , which is a type of reactive nitrogen species. All nitrogen oxides are good oxidizing agents. This cause excess Cyclic GMP, vascular collapse and septic shock, s-nitrothiol formation on proteins (thionitrites).
Now you should be able to see why iNOS has been implicated in inflammatory bowel disorders.
GTP cyclohydrolase increases BH4, folate is needed to produce it. Do not take folic acid it is man made and can build up in the body causing health problems.
Vitamin C the real vitamin C not man made, Vitamin E and Folate not to be mistaken for Folic Acid which is man made and can build up in the body damaging the NMDA receptor and increasing the risk for cancer. These all scavenge peroxynitrite.
COX2 inhibitors reduce peroxynitrite. In my list of supplements I listed some things that will inhibit COX.
Getting rid of infection and reducing inflammation reduces peroxynitrite.
Reducing toxins in the body especially glyphosate and heavy metals reduces peroxynitrite.
How Nitric Oxide Species are produced.
Disregulation of NO can cause many health problems from diabetes to cancer.
Though I do not agree with statin use because it does more damage to the body then oxidative stress does, this article has a good summary of Nitric Oxide production and the enzymes that regulate it.
iNos has been implicated in inflammatory bowel disease.
Inflammation and infection are known causes of hardening of the arteries. The blood vessels start to leak and the body uses calcium and cholesterol to seal the leaks resulting in hardening of the artieries. INOS causes leakage in blood vessels in response to inflammation and infection. This is why it is very important to address the infection and inflammation.
Excess iNOS production can cause anemia.
eNOS issues have been linked to cardiovascular disease, erectile dysfunction, hypertension, diabetes, and obesity.
This is cause by oxidative stress .
Toxins and infection can lead to excess NMDA receptor activation which can lead to nitrosative stress.
Epselen can scavenge peroxynititrite but has not been approved for usage for anything but mental disorders.
Thymoquinone reduces oxidative stress which damages the brain.
Baicalein found in sculletaria and plantain herb protects from peroxynitrite damage. | 2019-04-21T23:01:19 | https://iamajuicer.wordpress.com/tag/chronic-fatigue/ |
Here are some of the more common uses for paracord we could think of, but the uses are really only limited by your imagination. Keep your eyes open for video demonstrations of the more complicated applications such as making snares and building a raft.
#2 Repair torn clothing with the internal strands which slide easily out of the kernmantle (casing). Use a makeshift needle or be sure to keep one in your first-aid kit.
#4 Rig a makeshift tow rope. A single length of paracord has been tested to handle 550 lbs of weight, so wrap it securely 10 times and you have the ability to pull 5500 lbs.
#6 String up a clothes line. Wet clothes are uncomfortable when you’re camping and dangerous when you’re trying to survive.
#8 Replace your shoe laces. Just burn the ends and thread them through.
#10 Use it as dental floss. Pull out the internal strands and keep up your hygiene even in the woods, or to get that pesky piece of meat out from between your teeth.
#25 Lash logs or other items together to build a raft.
#26 Tie snow shoes. Bend a 1” branch in a teardrop shape. Tie it securely then weave the paracord back and forth across the opening. Tie this to your shoes.
#28 Make a sling to throw stones for protection and food.
#31 Make fishing line by cutting a length and pulling out the internal strands (there are seven of them, each of which comes apart into two, so there's 14 thin lines if you aren't catching really big fish). Just tie them together.
#32 Make a fish stringer. If you’ve just pulled the strings out to make fishing line, the remaining kernmantle (the colored sheath) would be plenty strong enough to hold fish. Otherwise just cut a length, and tie through the gills.
#35 Tie straight sticks around a broken limb to make a splint.

Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz, Jr., discussing the role preferential rents play in the boroughs.
Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz on Thursday proposed pairing new rent restrictions with a tax-break for property owners in a bid to address the New York City housing market’s Sword of Damocles: the threat of sudden, massive rent increases in regulated apartments where tenants right now enjoy preferential rents.
About 966,000 apartments in the city are rent stabilized, meaning landlords cannot typically raise the rent year to year more than the Rent Guidelines Board (RGB) allows in its annual decision. Last year, the RGB allowed rents on one-year leases to rise no more than 1.5 percent.
While property owners can boost rents on rent-stabilized units in other ways—by claiming costs associated with capital improvements, or qualifying for a bonus when an apartment changes hands—the RGB level is generally the hike a landlord can legally impose on the same tenant absent some capital work.
Unless, that is, the landlord—or, more to the point, the real-estate market—has given tenants a break in the past.
In some areas of the city and for many years, legal rents authorized by RGB increases were higher than the rental market would pay. So landlords offered discounts, called preferential rents. And that was good for those renters who got them, in the short term.
The problem for tenants and housing advocates, who consider rent-stabilized units a bulwark of affordability in the city, is that under existing law landlords can raise the rent to the legal rent whenever they want. In other words, all the foregone increases of the past can be implemented at once. If deep discounts were offered in years gone by, that could mean a whopping one-time increase in rent—something far higher than 1.5 percent.
According to the report released by Diaz, some 260,378 apartments in the city now have preferential rents. That’s 29 percent of all rent-stabilized apartments, and 7 percent of apartments overall. An Independent Budget Office analysis found that the average gap between the rent that was being charged and the rent that could be charged was $286 in 2008, but a much higher $444 in 2015.
That rent gap is highest in Manhattan ($800) but preferential rent is a bigger deal in the Bronx, where 11 percent of apartments feature one. Some neighborhoods are especially dense with vulnerable apartments, like Two Bridges in Manhattan, Bay Ridge in Brooklyn and the Ground Concourse corridor in the Bronx.
“New York State must reform its rent laws, and that includes strengthening tenant protections and closing the preferential rent loophole,” said Diaz in a statement accompanying the report.
Diaz doesn’t propose ending preferential rents per se. He supports a bill that would prevent landlords from jumping to the preferential rent during a tenancy; the jump could be made upon vacancy, however. That would create an incentive for landlords to push tenants out, so Diaz also calls for stronger tenant protections that would impose “increased civil penalties and compensatory damages” if that occurs.
Most interesting, and novel according to Frank Ricci, the head of government affairs at the property owners’ trade group, the Rent Stabilization Association, is Diaz’s tax proposal.
“As always the devil is in the details and how workable it is,” he adds.
Diaz says the property-tax break will not be a net cost to the city because, by salvaging preferential units, his policy will save the city money on homeless shelters and the other costs generated by displacement. Landlords have long complained, with some justification, that the city’s property tax system unfairly burdens multiunit buildings, and that the RGB has failed to account for the increases in property taxes and other fees that landlords face. The property tax system could see reform this year.
Tenant advocates were skeptical of the tax element of Diaz’s plan.
“I wholeheartedly agree With making the preferential rent the legal rent for the duration of a tenancy. However, landlords should not be compensated for ignoring New York City Rent Guidelines Board’s decisions each year,” said Delsenia Glover, Director of Tenants & Neighbors. “Public money should not be used to reimburse landlords for rent hikes that are unjustified in the first place. It is fiscally irresponsible and further undermines the rent regulation framework” she added.

We've been experiencing some pretty good weather these past couple of weeks. A heatwave that was promised for once appeared and the sun has been out more often than not. Now I'm not one to complain, I much prefer the sunshine to the wind and rain however it can be a tad too hot at times especially for the kids. But you can't miss an opportunity to get outdoors so what better way to fend off the heat than having an epic water gun fight in the garden.
I think this was really just way for the husband to get himself a super soaker but passing it off as being for the girls made it acceptable. A trip to Argos and his wallet £36 lighter soon meant the kids would be ready for war to cool down.
Little Layla was busy napping indoors when the following battle occured, she was the only one to remain dry but thankfully we all survived to tell the tale.
I was trying to hide by the back door taking photos but this didn't stop me from getting a soaking.
Daddy Hazelden found is seat at the filling station, in other words where the hose was located but this also became his weapon of choice.
They were using the shed and garden toys as barriers and hiding places but no place was safe!!
I'm not quite sure who won in the end but really it was just so nice to hear the girls laughing and having fun, the garden served its' pupose well. I'm hoping for plenty more bright and sunny days once the Summer holidays arrive.
Perfect summer garden fun! My kids did this yesterday afternoon just for the fun of it too. It always goes down a treat even if you do end up with a soggy wash load at the end!

Today, a new California legislature got sworn in for the 2013-14 legislative session, with new members, new margins, and a renewed mission to implement health reform and improve health care in general.
Both Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg and Assembly Speaker John A. Perez mentioned health issues in their opening remarks after being formally re-elected to their leadership posts.
In talking about the budget, Senator Steinberg specifically highlighted the cut of dental coverage in Medi-Cal as a major cut that was made in bleaker budget days–as one he will work to restore. He recalled going to a free dental clinic at Cal Expo, and see endless lines of people (mostly working families) requiring root canals and dental surgery, who had put off basic care for years.
New benefits of the Affordable Care Act come online on January 1, 2014, and the goal is to start signing Californians up for these new coverage options in October 2013–less than ten short months away. Thus starts a sprint to get California ready to implement federal health law and maximize its benefit, after an election than re-elected the President and virtually all Congressional supporters of “Obamacare,” and in California passed Proposition 30 that firmed up the financial foundation of state services on which these new reforms will be built.
The special legislative session on health reform implementation is expected to consider the new rules for insurers (including banning denials for pre-existing conditions), and the expansion of Medi-Cal. Much more work is needed at the Department of Health Care Services, Department of Managed Health Care, Department of Insurance, and the new health benefits exchange, now called Covered California.
That’s why we are excited about tomorrow’s SYMPOSIUM & HEALTH ACCESS 25TH ANNIVERSARY EVENT TOMORROW. To spotlight the legislative, administrative, and organizing work needed, Health Access is sponsoring a post-election symposium on Tuesday, December 4th, at the Citizen Hotel in Sacramento. While looking to the future, it will also be a time to revisit the past, as Health Access celebrates 25 years of advocacy. This two-part “Fulfilling the Promise” event will include a program and discussion to lay out next steps for California health advocates, timed right after a consequential election, and with newly-named chairs of key health committees.
Following the program at 5:00 p.m. will be a reception celebrating the progress we have made over the past twenty-five years with a short program to recognize key California leaders, including the recently passed UCLA professor Dr. E. Richard Brown.
If you can join us, we look forward to seeing you! | 2019-04-22T00:16:50 | https://health-access.org/2012/12/starting-the-legislative-session-right/ |

How Far Back Do Credit History Reports Go?
When it comes to applying for credit, it is important to know how far back lenders look on credit history reports. Just because potential customers have paid all of their bills on time in the past 2 years does not mean that they will get approved for credit. Yes, it is true that credit reports show payment history for the past few years, but reported late payments can remain on credit history reports for several years; this information becomes apparent when customers learn that their credit score is not what they expected. Knowing what information is on a credit history report is the only way to maintain a good credit history.
Information remains on annual credit reports as follows: inquiries – 2 years, late payments – 7 years, paid tax liens – 7 years, unpaid tax liens – 15 years, collection accounts – 7 years, judgments – 7 years, and bankruptcies – 7 to 10 years. The information may surprise many people, but it’s true. Depending on the creditor, information may remain on credit reports for less than the specified time. Some creditors remove the information after the accounts are paid in full so that their customers can begin rebuilding their credit.
Pay bills on or before the scheduled payment date. Lenders do not always hold payment history issues against potential customers. They may consider your current payment history. For example, paying all bills on time for 2 or 3 years may make it possible to receive credit and improve credit.
Request removal of old information reported to credit bureaus. Some lenders are likely to remove the information as soon as the debts are repaid. They have the right to remove negative information related to accounts after the accounts are clear. Late payments usually remain, but whatever information can be removed from credit history reports is good.
Apply for credit with a small credit line. Part of the reason for past credit issues may have been the misuse of credit. Applying for credit in small amounts may help rebuild credit and helps consumers use credit responsibly. Applying for a credit card or a personal loan may prove to be a great decision that can help to build credit.
Find a professional to help rebuild credit. A credit specialist can help their customers rebuild their credit quickly. In addition to offering ways to pay off debt quickly, they can also provide helpful tips to help maintain current good credit standings. These professionals know about credit laws and customers rights so they will ensure that their customers make the right decisions.
Do not use credit cards more than necessary. Credit cards with less than 30% of available credit help customers maintain a good credit score. High debt and maxed out credit cards lower credit scores very quickly, but paying them off can raise scores quickly.
No one wants to deal with the frustration of payment issues remaining on credit history reports. The best way to handle the problem is to control the future by finding ways to rebuild credit and raise credit scores. In time, consumers may be able to receive credit. | 2019-04-23T09:54:18 | https://www.registerednursern.com/how-far-back-do-credit-history-reports-go/ |

The 1815 campaign has long proved a popular campaign for wargamers, providing set piece battles fought between armies that were both different yet almost equal in battle, having honed their martial skills over twenty years of warfare. It is fitting, therefore, the Dave Brown’s first scenario supplement for General d’Armee focusses on the inconic actions. We invited Dave into Lard Island News to talke about Reisswitz Press latest release.
We first asked what six actions ae covered in 1815, The Hundred Days.
“The Hundred Days campaign has many interesting actions, but I was keen to reflect the multi-national nature of the forces involved in thwarting Napoleon’s plans whilst at the same time showing that even the biggest of actions can be broken down into smaller, discrete engagements where we focus on one chapter of a battle. As a result we begin with the Battle for Gilly near Charleroi with the Prussian General Pirch fighting a delaying action against Napoleon himself. After that we head to Quatre Bras where Marshal Ney faces the Prince of Orange in one of the most fasmous actions of the campaign. After that wehead to Ligny where von Zeithen as he and General Vandamme fight for the key village of Saint Amand.
What, we wondered, was it that apepaled to Dave about the period?
“It’s the fact that the forces are varied and different but not unbalanced. The French had a solid infantry, supported by masses of heavy cavalry, guns and of course the Imperial Guard. But they are not over-powering; the famous Armee du Nord was not as proficient as its earlier predecessors in the campaigns as 1805, 1807 or even 1809. The army was dogged with uncertainly about its generals and leaders, where they experienced enough, were they worn out or worse still, were they traitors?
Wellington’s army was not longer the army of Spain, lacking many of his peninsular veteran regiments, in their pace were inexperienced allies, including Dutch, Belgium’s Nasseurs and Hanoverians. Blucher’s Prussian army, was a collection of line and reservist regiments, lacking proper heavy cavalry or guard support, but nonetheless held together by an excellent officer corps.
These elements made each army distinctive, but meant that battles tended to be close run affairs, whether fighting Quatre Bras, Ligny or Waterloo nothing is guaranteed, leading to many nail-biting moments. Will Wellington arrive at Quatre Bras in time with sufficient reserves to stop Ney, how long can the Prussian hold out in the villages at Ligny and how long can Napoleon delay the Prussians at Waterloo in order to defeat Wellington?
1815, The Hundfred Days is 45 pages long with a historical introduction to introduce the gamer to the campaign and provide an insight into how and why things happened as they did. The six scenarios provide full lists for the forces involved, rates their commanders and provides complete briefings for each game along with victory conditions and terrain notes.
The 1815 The Hundred Days scenario supplement is available in PDF format and designed to allow you to print out the relevant pages for each scenario and use them again and again. The book is beautifully illustrated with photographs and specially commissioned maps to make the campaign come to life. It is available for £8.00 internationally or £9.60 if the dreaded VAT is charged within the UK and EU.

When you search for a book on LibraryThing.com, you can search many different online databases, including Amazon and the Library of Congress. If the book you are looking to add has an ISBN, there is a good chance you can find it in one or more of the databases. However, a lot of books can’t be found online, so you’ll have to add them manually if you want to include them in your LibraryThing library.
You’ll be taken to the next page, where you can input the book’s details. “Title” is the only field that you have to fill out, but if you have more information about the book, you can add as much as you want. Book descriptions on LibraryThing can be fairly specific – you can add publisher information, a plot summary, and even any tags that will help to classify the book. If you’ve already read the book, you can also add your review or rating on this page.
When you add a book manually, by default it is set to be added to your library. You have to add it to at least one of your collections, but you can choose which one – your wishlist, to-read list, favorites, etc. If you have a custom collection set up, you can add it to that one instead.
Once you click Save at the bottom of the page, the book will be created and added to whichever collection(s) you specified. If you want to edit anything about the book (for example, if you want to add a cover image) you can click the pencil icon next to the book in your library and change whatever details you want. | 2019-04-19T15:21:02 | https://www.userlinux.com/how-to-manually-add-book-to-librarything/ |

Tonography has greatly added to our understanding of aqueous humor dynamics, but we have few observations of the early histologic changes in the eye induced by elevated intraocular pressure. This contrasts with the abundant observations that have been made on the late changes.
The present paper reports a study of the early histopathologic changes induced in rabbits by experimental elevation of the intraocular pressure. | 2019-04-21T00:27:26 | https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamaophthalmology/article-abstract/626811 |
Why teach about migration? Migration is inherently a geographic issue. It touches on themes of physical geography (such as climate and landforms), cultural geography (political systems, political instability, political boundaries, demographic trends past and present), sociology (perception, push and pull factors), and many more. It changes over space and time and is an excellent way to teach spatial concepts and skills. Since the dawn of humankind, migration has always been present; thus, it ever remains a current issue. It is also relevant, causing deep and long-lasting changes in culture, language, urban forms, food, land use, social policy, politics, and much more. Migration is a global issue that affects our everyday lives. It is also a personal issue, because each of us has a migration story to tell about our own ancestors and families.
One of the maps in the Esri coolmaps gallery enables you to visualize migration data over time and space in a 2D and 3D tool that is a powerful and effective tool, yet it easily works in any standard web browser without any software to install.
The map opens in 3D mode and in Play mode, showing a set of data for selected countries (the UAE, Mexico, China, and Singapore during the 1990s, 2000s, 2010, and 2013. This selected set provides a good introduction for teaching about the patterns, relationships, and trends in the data. The time periods are shown below the lower part of the map, with the out-migration and in-migration available for each of the four time periods. The thickness of the lines coming out from or going to each country selected indicates the amount of migration, and the end points of each line indicates the countries sending people to or receiving people from each country. For each country, the raw number of out- and in-migrants is indicated, along with the percentage of that country’s total population for each time period. After viewing the introductory data, use the “pause“ button to stop the Play mode and to select among the list of the world’s countries. The interactivity--being able to select countries, years--the compelling cartography, and the ability to switch between 2D and 3D modes combines to make this an incredibly useful teaching and research tool.
As with any web GIS tool, always ask the students, “Where did the data come from? Can you trust it?” In this case, the data came from the United Nations Trends in International Migrant Stock: The 2013 Revision is provided by the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs. Use the “i” button to go to the data’s source. Encourage the students to investigate the data at its source, and to study how and when it was collected. According to this data set, how long does a migrant have to live in a country before he or she is no longer considered a “migrant”?
I also encourage you as the instructor to have the students use this map to help them understand migration patterns and number. As we have written elsewhere in GIS education essays, this could be an excellent supplement to the other sources you use. For example, ask, “How has Australian immigration changed in amount and in the countries sending migrants to Australia over the past 25 years? What are some of the social and political changes that are occurring in the country with the changes in migration? What do you think Australia will be like in 25 years if current trends continue?” These questions illustrate that the visualizations help students understand geographic phenomena, but can also be used in tandem with other sources – such as journal and newspaper articles, the Census Bureau’s international database, ArcGIS Online maps and story maps from Esri, and other resources that could shed light on the topic, changes in demographics in cities and rural areas, and much more.
One of my favorite things about teaching with maps is that they often confirm some hypotheses and shatter others. These maps confirm some of what I knew about migration, but they also raised questions and shattered other preconceived notions I had. For example, I expected the amount of migration to the USA to be high in raw numbers and as a percentage of the USA’s population, and I also expected the in-migration list of countries to include most of the countries around the world. But I didn’t expect to see such a high percentage of Reunion Island’s population moving to the USA. Is it part of climate-induced sea-level rise migration, perhaps? Also, as expected, I found the number of countries that sent people to Somalia to be small, and the number of countries receiving Somalians to be somewhat higher. But I did not expect to see so much flow from Russia to the UK, and vice versa, nor did I expect to see that Australia currently has the highest percentage of migrants living there of any country, at nearly 50% of the total population.
For a few more ideas on how to teach with this tool, along with a short tutorial on how to use it, see my video.
If this map intrigues you, be sure to explore the other maps in the “Esri coolmaps” gallery. These maps cover a wide variety of topics from economics to natural hazards and much more. They rotate in and out periodically, so be sure to check back often. All of them make effective teaching tools.
Michigan's GRACE Project (GIS Resources and Applications for Career Education) helps students use GIS. GRACE uses a coordinated and multi-tiered approach for educators and students alike, and works with communities across the state to identify partners interested in high school student interns with GIS knowledge and skills.
Last week, at the Great Lakes Research Center at Michigan Tech, in Houghton, in "copper country" of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, I joined dozens of community members to watch 10 presentations by students. They had worked for six weeks on paid internships, building data about their communities, analyzing it, interpreting it, and preparing their findings for the community. These were students in grades 9-12 who had learned about GIS from their teachers, been interested enough to complete an independent training program of about 20 hours of online courses from Esri Training, done the necessary paperwork and interview for an internship, and then exercised their brains day after day in summer.
The students grappled with issues common to GIS professionals and others: challenging community problems don’t come with a manual; data capture takes brains and persistence; not all data are equally good; initial findings don't always match expectations; there are many ways to analyze data, which can influence interpretations; and, no matter how much work one puts into a project, there are always more questions. Wrestling with such challenges required substantial skills, and new ones every day. Students needed to work independently and in groups, learn new concepts and skills aggressively, cope with different data formats and resolution, and use and interpret different means of converting many individual reports into a more useful broad display.
Across the state, GRACE has worked with cohorts of teachers, building their skills, and helping them introduce students to GIS. Their first summer of student internships, in 2016, yielded impressive stories. This summer expanded on those, from big cities to small towns. Students in varied communities recognized GIS as a stepping stone to a better future, for themselves, their community, and the larger world. Teachers recognized that GIS has value in all industries. Employers recognized that students have tremendous capacity and interest in the welfare of their world, and what they lack most are the pointers and permissions. GRACE points the way to a better tomorrow with GIS.
It is rewarding when one looks at innovative student projects. Below is an example of one such project, where the Insights for ArcGIS app was used by a student, Zach Matek, to visualize data in his Final Project in a Spatial Analytics course at Johns Hopkins University.
What was impressive from an instructor perspective, was the fact that Insights was not taught in this particular course (though it will be in the next offering). The Insights app was shared with the student as an option to explore on his own, seeing that it could be useful to his project, and he was able to quickly create a workbook and perform analytics to enhance his project - without any instructional guidance!
The use of the Insights app was a small part of the project, but it presented the data in a clear way. Zach, a part time student, works for RainKing Solutions, which is a market research firm that helps businesses identify likely buyers of technologies on global scale using predictive analytics and sales intelligence. The organization collects data on global corporations, and sells this data to companies in the Business-to-Business (B2B) marketplace. GIS of course can aid in this effort, and Zach is testing the technology in his current workspace.
Are the instances of Salesforce’s customers in statistically significant clusters?
Is there statistically significant clustering of customers based on certain weighted fields such as revenue, number of full-time employees, and IT budget?
Where is the median center of their customers?
Where is the center of their customers for each of the Census Bureau’s four study regions –Northeast, Midwest, South, and West?
Below are some screenshots from Zach’s workbook, please note that the interactivity of the maps and charts is lost in the screenshots - in a sense, the static nature of the screenshot does not do it justice. The live nature of the maps and charts, and the exploratory tools, was fantastic in the Insights app.
Salesforce data was exported from RainKing’s CRM to a CSV file, which was used in the Insights app.
Data on Microsoft’s CRM was exported from RainKing database and compared with Saleforce customers.
The Density of customers was measured using the Calculate Density tool.
Three scatter plots show the relationship between budgets (IT, Sales, and Marketing), and Revenue – all yield an R2 over 0.9, which is not surprising.
Four charts provide insight into the nature of the categorical data – through Bubble Chart and Tree Maps, the number of Salesforce customers is compared by state and city.
Salesforce customer data was compared with several demographic factors – 2012 State Population, 2016 Median Income, and the Population with Graduate Degrees.
Zach’s project involved a lot more that what was shared above, but the ease of use of Insights and its applicability was joy to observe. He also created a video tutorial, to be shared in future courses or otherwise, attached here. Thank you, Zach!
Roxana Ayala was the opening speaker of the student team on stage at Esri's 2013 User Conference. Having just completed 11th grade at the Math, Science, and Technology Magnet Academy of Roosevelt High School and LAUSD, in the Boyle Heights neighborhood of East Los Angeles, Roxana and her 90 classmates had worked with GIS for only four months, in a pair of adjoining classrooms (Social Studies and English) housing 15 laptops between them, on a wireless network that ground to a halt when a 12th computer signed on.
But she and they persevered, digging deep into learning about their community by gathering data of personal interest and analyzing it in ArcGIS Online. Some continued the next year, and because of her work, Roxana got to speak to educators, and governors, and even stand in the White House and shake President Obama's hand. At college, she continued using GIS, getting into summer internships in support of her double major in environmental science and urban studies.
To help mark the 25th year of Esri's program for K12 schools, Roxana agreed to come back and talk about how GIS had helped her discover and steer toward some big goals.
"I hope that in the future I go to graduate school and attain a Master's in the field of environmental science, and continue using GIS in order to demonstrate to the world how precious and vulnerable the planet is, and how important it is to fight for our planet. I also do hope to become a role model for many low-income, first generation students of color, and empower them to dream big, just like I did ... GIS has the power to create powerful maps that tell stories, and that can be translated throughout the world, and I really do hope to continue this legacy, and ... continue telling stories in an effort to build a better tomorrow."
Two days after her EdUC talk, and four years after her initial appearance on the main stage of the Esri conference, Roxana strode out after a terrific presentation by three 4-H youth from Tennessee, to help the world connect the dots about deep learning with GIS in school. Students like Roxana, who get exposed to powerful ways of seeing the world, and get to dive into personal projects with it, can make a tremendous difference, for their future, for many others in communities near and far, and for the planet.
Just a little change in trajectory early enough can help someone change the world. Jump in to GIS in your class, and help someone else begin to in theirs. Imagine a future in which all students join Roxana in changing the world.
Get Ready, Get Excited, for GIS Day!
GIS Day is drawing near! This year, it will be held on 15 November 2017. I wanted to share 6 things about GIS Day with you.
What is GIS Day? The theme of GIS Day is "Discovering the World Through GIS". GIS Day provides an international forum for users of geographic information systems (GIS) technology to demonstrate real-world applications that are making a difference in our society. The first formal GIS Day took place in 1999. Esri president and co-founder Jack Dangermond credits Ralph Nader with being the person who inspired the creation of GIS Day. He considered GIS Day a good initiative for people to learn about geography and the uses of GIS. He wanted GIS Day to be a grassroots effort and open to everyone to participate.
Host an event at your organization -- school, community or technical college, university, nonprofit organization, library, private company, government agency, or even in a park outside--sometime during or close to GIS Day week (15 November 2017). Post an announcement about your event on www.gisday.com. It doesn’t have to be elaborate or something that consumes a lot of your employees’ time, but something where you open a section of your organization to the community, other departments in your organizations, or local schools, universities, community colleges, and clubs, to showcase what GIS is and what you are doing to make a positive difference in the world using GIS. It doesn’t have to even be on the actual GIS Day; the point is that your event is promoting the benefits GIS brings to communities, your organization, and society. Or, look at the map on the GIS Day website to find an event near you that you can attend!
Find resources on the website www.gisday.com. Together with a few other good people at Esri, I have made about 75 changes to the website since last GIS Day. The resources improved on the website include story maps, hands-on activities, videos, strategies on how to work with students and the general public, and much more. Stay tuned for updates of the press releases, and so on.
Get some geo-swag! The first 250 organizations that register for GIS Day this year around the world will receive 1 box of some wonderful GIS-related items that you can use for promoting your event.
Be a GIS champion! I am seeking organizations who are GIS and GIS Day champions around the world to highlight the good things they are doing, to be featured in articles on GeoNet, ArcNews, and other outlets. Videos too! If you know of an organization that should be included, or think that yours should be, please let me know via gisday@esri.com.
Questions? Please email gisday@esri.com. I am on the receiving end of those emails and respond to these on a daily basis.
I hope this is helpful. Thank you for promoting and supporting GIS Day!
ArcGIS Enterprise can be deployed on many different platforms, both on internal infrastructure and in the cloud. This blog will describe a series of items to keep in mind as one launches ArcGIS Enterprise in Amazon Web Services (AWS). The steps outlined below can be considered for various implementations of the ArcGIS Platform, regardless of the infrastructure it is installed on.
The main purpose for launching ArcGIS Enterprise in this example was to provide access to a portal to be used by students in a MS in GIS program, along with access to Insights for ArcGIS.
There are a number of System Requirements that we need to keep in mind as we implement ArcGIS Enterprise. First, we would start with a base ArcGIS Enterprise deployment, which includes an ArcGIS Server, Portal for ArcGIS, ArcGIS Data Store and two ArcGIS Web Adaptors. Then add additional server sites, as needed, to support additional capabilities.
NOTE: This is just an example of an implementation, there are many possible variations for the outlined steps.
Launch an AWS ArcGIS Enterprise instance (one of the available Esri AMIs).
Ensure it fulfills the system requirements for ArcGIS Server and Portal for ArcGIS – as a start m4.2xlarge, 32GB, 8 virtual cores system was used.
A new security group was created in a VPC with all required ArcGIS ports (see ports used by ArcGIS Server, Portal for ArcGIS, ArcGIS Data Store). Using a launch-wizard or default security groups is generally not recommended, because they will allow all traffic in.
Once the instance was launched, the windows password was retrieved using a .pem file, and a remote desktop connection was made.
A few logistical items were done, such as removing IE Enhanced security configuration, set default browser of preference, and install any programs of interest, such as ArcGIS Pro, Notepad ++, etc.
The World Wide Web publishing service (Windows service) was started, then set to Automatic start.
The ArcGIS Data Store and Portal for ArcGIS Windows services were started as well. The startup was changed to Automatic, versus manual. Why do this? Some of the components of ArcGIS Enterprise run under a dedicated Windows service (Arc GIS server, Portal for ArcGIS and ArcGIS Data Store). These services need to be running.
Have a preferred domain in mind, i.e. gis.myuniversity.edu. IT department was contacted with the preferred domain name and the internal IP address of the instance. This is how eventually the DNS entry for the website was setup, that will map a domain name, such as gis.myuniversity.edu, to the IP address of the AWS instance. This would work for internal access, then IT setup a NAT for external access.
Add the machine to Active Directory domain (IT staff with proper permissions performed this) and confirm that the proper DNS records updated.
Add a desired account to the local Administrators group, that way that person could login to the AWS instance using their university credentials, versus the local Administrator account.
The university’s IT practice recommended against using Elastic IPs – on premises DNS was used. They focus on setting up internal access only first and then using a NAT for external access (one of the next steps).
Request SSL certificates (CA certificate) issued to the domain.
University IT departments use various services. Some of the common ones are GlobalSign, Comodo, DigiCert, others.
Certificate Signing Request (CSR) was created.
Once certificate was received, it was installed and configured. An example is here.
Certificate was bind to the website.
At this point, the IIS Welcome URL (https://gis.myuniversity.edu ) was able to be reached while on the university network, but not outside of the network.
IT created a Public IP NAT, then updated the DNS entry with the Public IP address.
After NAT records were updated with the Public IP, https://gis.myuniversity.edu was able to be accessed from anywhere (good indicator one could proceed).
In a nutshell, all traffic was coming through an internal networked IP – the AWS machine was hidden from the outside world. Note that this is just one possible scenario of networking and implementation.
RDP port was not open on the NAT. This means that one had to be on the university network to make a remote desktop connection to the instance.
Ensure that Portal for ArcGIS, ArcGIS Server and ArcGIS Data Store services are running and startup is Automatic.
When creating the Portal Administrator Account, ensure there is proper storage on the drive where the components are installed. There have been issues with users trying to do the installation with small amount of space, for example 10GB, left. Also, proper permissions are needed for the windows account under which the Portal and Server windows services are running.
NOTE: Make sure step 19 of the Deploy Portal for ArcGIS on AWS documentation is done to set the portal’s system properties in the Portal Administrator Directory.
IMPORTANT: Follow this workflow to avoid redirect errors – the Web Adaptor URL has to be changed to https://gis.myuniversity.edu/portal in the Portal Administrator Directory.
6. Request enterprise logins, commonly referred to Single Sign On (SSO).
Worked with IT to configure a SAML-compliant identity provider with the portal.
In this particular case, IT staff requested that a portal account with Administrator privileges be created for them, and they enabled SSO.
This step is very important to save time when it comes to user management – this means that no additional logins for students had to be created, and they could just login to the portal and the Insights for ArcGIS app using their student credentials.
Any comments or additions are welcome.
How are Esri MOOCs Different from other E-learning Offerings?
Esri offers five different Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs). My recent experiences suggest our MOOCs are still a bit mysterious to students, educators and professionals.
In this post, I want to highlight how our MOOCs are different from Esri’s other free e-Learning offerings (Web Courses, Training Seminars, Videos and Tutorials).
1. While some free e-Learning resources are accessible to everyone, others require you or your organization to own qualifying products under maintenance.
MOOCs are free to anyone, anywhere who wants to learn. All required accounts and software are provided for the duration of the course, without cost.
2. E-learning resources are video- or text- based; there is no interaction with the instructor or other learners.
While there is no “real time” instruction in an Esri MOOC, each course is led by an experienced instructor. Instructors guide students, provide support and answer questions, often on topics beyond the course content. Further, students are encouraged to help one another. Instructors acknowledge “the most helpful students” with Esri prizes.
3. E-learning resources are available on demand. Students can take them when they need to learn or review a topic or technique or whenever they feel the itch to learn.
MOOCs are more like college courses. Students must register in advance, or within the first two weeks of a course to join the current offering. Exercises and other assignments must be completed by the end of the course.
4. E-learning resources run minutes or up to a few hours.
MOOCs run over a four or six-week period. The course material is introduced either all at once or week by week.
MOOCs focus on broader topics such as spatial analysis, location analytics, building apps without coding, applications of imagery, and cartography. While students use Esri software, MOOCs are not designed to train students to use specific features or software packages.
6. E-Learning Web Courses include quizzes and exercises; other learning formats depend on videos and text.
Here again, MOOCs are more like college classes. They include video lectures and conversations, step-by-step exercises, class discussions and quizzes.
Fall classes will be starting soon! I have prepared a 5-page guide to Esri e-Learning to help you identify and select Esri web courses for inclusion in your own college or university courses.
To create the list, I combed through the Esri training curriculum and selected the current web courses, MOOCs, and a few tutorials, that I felt would be most beneficial for introductory or intermediate levels. The document includes ArcGIS fundamentals, as well as selections from core capabilities: mapping and visualization, spatial analytics, data collection and management, and imagery and remote sensing. I also included a list for green infrastructure and GeoDesign.
Each list is organized into three sections so that you can compare and choose available courses based on what software students will use: ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Pro, or ArcMap.
A few questions and discussion points applicable to academic setting came up in a recent Web GIS Administration workshop during the Esri Educational User Conference in July 2017, and we thought we could share them with the community in case others had these same questions.
For anyone using Enterprise Logins (SSO), since a group is likely created for a course or a program in the respective enterprise identity store, can we automate certain workflows based on that group?
Currently a way to accomplish this is through a script using the ArcGIS API for Python or the ArcGIS REST API. A possible scenario for a script is to create a custom role equivalent to Publisher but with other privileges, such as enable Esri Access, assign ArcGIS Pro license, assign credits, etc., then assign it to all users in a group coming from a roster or LMS.
Managing large number of users - some universities hold on to their student identities indefinitely. What are the best tools to manage large number of users and what are the recommendations to clean up inactive accounts? Is there a setting that if an account is inactive for a period of time, it can be removed? Disabled members still count toward the number of users in an organization, so simply disabling a member may not be a solution.
ArcGIS Online Development team is currently collecting requirements for large organization management and potentially timing out users. We are hoping to get some more bulk tools out for late 2017 or in 2018 (subject to change).
Currently the best tools to clean up inactive accounts are using a script that tracks last login or tags for deleting. This can be done via the ArcGIS API for Python or the ArcGIS REST API.
Please consider voting for the existing idea to Set Expiry Date for User Account.
Automatic provisioning of ArcGIS Pro – what are the future plans that would allow automatic provisioning of ArcGIS Pro licensing for anyone who joins an organization? This is particularly important when enterprise logins (SSO) are implemented since the ArcGIS Online administrator does not know when users would login, so provisioning happens manually. If accounts are created manually for a class, the provisioning is still an extra step, but at least it could be done at time of user/group creation.
Automatic provisioning for ArcGIS Pro isn’t on the road map, yet. It has been brought up to the ArcGIS Online team for consideration. Please consider voting for the existing idea.
Is there an existing enhancement request or need for multiple federated logins? For example, if an ArcGIS Online organization is being used for a school district, but the various schools in the school district have multiple identity stores – what would be a way to accomplish this?
This is under consideration by the ArcGIS Online Development team as well. Please consider getting in idea logged, to our knowledge one has not been logged yet.
5: Is there a way for students to know how many credits they have left?
This is on the ArcGIS Online road map for users to be able to check their credits. Please consider voting for the existing idea.
We’d like to see more examples and uses of social logins and how they work with enterprise logins.
Social logins are especially relevant to K-12 schools which may use Google Classroom or other social media accounts. Social logins give you the ability to allow the members of your organization to be able to sign into ArcGIS Online using their credentials from various social networks. They are different than enterprise logins (often referred to as SSO), and currently there is no connection between the two.
Social logins are your Facebook or Google account which can be used to create a new ArcGIS Online public account. Once you have created a public account, you can sign in to ArcGIS Online and other Esri sites such as GeoNet and Story Maps using your social network login. With the recent ArcGIS Online 2016 updates, we can now even join an ArcGIS Organization by either creating a new account using your Facebook or Google credentials or using an existing public account created using Facebook or Google credentials (only if the organization is configured with the settings which allow members to sign up and sign in using Social network credentials).
When a student leaves the university, how could they transfer their certificates from Esri Training courses to another account?
Students can call Esri Customer Service (service@esri.com or 888-377-4575) to have their training history transferred to another account. This will ensure that the students have an ongoing record of any Esri web courses taken.
Can one share content from ArcGIS Pro when using a concurrent use license?
Yes. While Concurrent Use licensing for ArcGIS Pro in academia is discouraged, it is possible. If implemented, one can still login to their ArcGIS Online organization in ArcGIS Pro, using named user credentials. This will be necessary if one wishes to publish content to the web, or use any of the ArcGIS Online maps and services. More licensing-related and other ArcGIS Pro questions can be found here.
Data Governance discussion – tools such as Geo Jobe Admin Tools and ArcGIS Online Assistant are extremely useful for managing workflows relevant to academia, but data governance guidelines specific to the institution should be established, especially when applied to transferring content from one ArcGIS Online organization to another. Providing access to content, whether to a 3rd party provider, or from one organization to another, could be of concern in some instances.
Planet Earth is a noisy place. Some sounds are made objects on, above, or below the natural landscape, and others by things that humans have constructed upon that landscape. Test your knowledge about those sounds by using my new "Sounds of Planet Earth" story map. This story map contains 100 sounds. After listening, take the quiz for each sound to test your answer on what each sound is. Some are easy, and some are intentionally very challenging!
Each point on the map is associated with a sound. You can navigate to each sound through the map interface, or use the navigation bar on the left side of the map to move to each sound in numeric order, or feel free to skip to specific sounds. One you choose a sound, a player appears, allowing you to listen to it. A link appears below each sound for you to submit your guess as to what that sound is. The quiz is optional but is a fun way to engage with the content.
Each sound player shows the interactive web map next to it; for example, Sound #20. In this case, the map gives a mighty good clue, but in other places around the Earth, the map provides very little additional information!
Here is the answer for Sound #20. In this case, I provide a few answers that would be acceptable, instead of just one answer. Oops, I just gave the answer for this sound away!
How did I create this story map? 1) I created a spreadsheet with city, state, country fields for each sound. My goals included wanting to have sounds of nature and sounds created by people, a diversity of different places around the world, to spark spatial thinking, and for them to be interesting. I used my own sounds because I own the content and did not need to seek permission to use them.
2) In ArcGIS Online, I added this spreadsheet and created a feature service and a map from it. In the map, I used a custom sound speaker graphic created by a wonderful artist that I know for the point symbol. Using the technique to access the new basemaps that I discussed here, I used the Modern Antique basemap for this story map for something fun and different. I used the new functionality with Arcade expressions to label my features. I shared the map with everyone.
3) I selected and downloaded 100 of my videos from my YouTube channel and used Camtasia from TechSmith to separate out the audio. Web utilities exist that allow you to download audio files from YouTube but beware--most of them contain nasty malware and worse. Camtasia works very well for this task, and is much safer; plus, you can trim your sound clips. Why did I download the videos in the first place? Well, I originally wanted to point directly to my YouTube audio from my story map but after several tries, I could not get this method to work. So, on to Plan B of downloading, stripping out the audio, and uploading, as I explain below.
4) I converted my 100 sound files from wav format from Camtasia to MP3 using Format Factory. I have used Format Factory for many years and it works well for conversion of audio and video files into different formats.
5) I uploaded the 100 mp3 sound files to a library on www.archive.org. Archive.org is the Internet Archive, a non-profit library of millions of free books, movies, software, music, websites, and more. For each file, I provided metadata and made them Creative Commons in licensing so that anyone can now use them. In a spreadsheet (separate from my spreadsheet that I used for my geocoding, above) I recorded the URL for each mp3 file so I could point to the sound file in my story map.
6) I created 100 quizzes and answer keys using Google Forms. I then viewed each quiz, recording the URL in my working spreadsheet.
7) I used the Map Journal story map app to build my sound story map, pointing to the map that I created in step 2. For each sound, I set the appropriate map scale and extent. For each sound, I edited the HTML, pointing to my sound file and to the quiz.
When done, I tested each sound to make sure it was working, and that the correct quiz and answer key was associated with each sound.
One of my blocks of code looks like this, below, with the first string representing the sound file and the second string representing the quiz, below. So, it shows that if you and your students can get comfortable with a little bit of coding, it can reap great rewards.
I hope the story map is useful and sparks ideas for what you could do with these tools. I encourage you to continue your exploration by studying physical and cultural geography, getting out onto the landscape, and observing with all 5 of your senses. Then, try creating a story map like the one I made with your own sounds, photographs, text, and/or videos! You can use my technique or try another method of creating a sound-based story map.
If this topic interests, you, a few of my other favorite sound story maps include Alan Lomax's documentation of the music of the South, a concert tour by the Grateful Dead, and that doesn't make you grate-ful, more Dead here from 1977, some of the traditional Christmas holiday music from around the world, the Sound of Music filming locations, and a map on the Lakota language that I created with James Rattling Leaf.
Thank you for reading about my Sounds of Planet Earth map: Hear the sounds, examine the map, test your knowledge, get out onto the landscape, observe with all of your senses, and make story maps of your OWN sounds! | 2019-04-18T12:31:04 | https://community.esri.com/community/education/blog/2017/08 |
LUIGI LOQUARTO (gig) – Luigi Loquarto (1982) is an italian visual artist living and working in Trani, Italy. My artistic research is focused on nature, particularly on stones; this natural element characterizes the landscapes of my land, Puglia. I am ispired by dry stone walls and "trulli", but also by pebble beaches of Puglia; my paintings often represent accumulations of stones. | 2019-04-24T18:16:33 | http://www.luigiloquarto.com/ |
At present we do run ValeforServ and also rely on other servers that are not affiliated with our forum. So in short you must respect our rules and other private server rules to an extent where you are not going to get removed or banned.
Our community has tried their hardest to follow other server rules, but find that some rules should not apply. Our own gaming style differs from other servers in that we refuse to accept limitation on Team Faction creation.
- Each Team Faction may be run by any registered or active user, but the Team Faction known as Cerberus must have an active staff member.
- On the Team Faction applications once approved will be locked, outside comments on these applications will be deleted if found inappropriate. | 2019-04-24T15:53:52 | http://phantasystaronline.forumotion.com/t88-server-rules |
