Sites across the web are participating in what they've called "Internet Slowdown" on Wednesday, a day of action to defend the open internet and protest the efforts of big telecoms to create discriminatory internet slow-lanes.
Social media sites, internet freedom organizations, blogs, and media outlets are participating by displaying an internet loading "spinning wheel of death" symbol on their site. The image does not actually slow down the connection, but directs users to information about how to contact the Federal Communications Commission, Congress, and the White House with their concerns.
"We wanted to organize a protest that would actually show the world what's at stake if we were to lose Net Neutrality," Evan Greer of Fight for the Future, one of the groups organizing the day of action, told Common Dreams. "Do you want your favorite websites to load more slowly while corporate monopolies get to pick and choose which websites load more quickly?"
Over thirty organizations—representing more than 10 million people—have called for the day of action, with Fight for the Future, Demand Progress, Free Press, and Engine Advocacy playing a coordinating roll, according to Greer. Numerous websites that are household names are participating in the day of action, including Reddit, Netflix, and Etsy. According to Greer, the event boasts "tens of thousands of participants."
Earlier this year, the FCC—after heavy lobbying from the telecom industry—proposed new guidelines that would erode Net Neutrality, allow discrimination against online content, and give internet service providers the green-light to create fast lanes for certain sites while slowing down the rest. As the public comment period on the rules expires September 15, the organizations are urging supporters to contact the FCC and their elected officials to voice their opposition to the proposal and demand that Net Neutrality be defended. The FCC is expected to make a decision at the end of this year.
The day of action lasts until 11:59 PM. | 2019-04-22T18:53:25 | https://www.commondreams.org/news/2014/09/10/internet-slowdown-day-world-wide-web-rises-defend-net-neutrality |

Taronga Western Plains Zoo has won the Unique Accommodation Award at the Australian Tourism Awards gala ceremony held in Melbourne on Friday 5 February 2016.
Members of the Taronga Western Plains Zoo team were at the gala event to accept the prestigious award.
“This is an absolutely outstanding achievement for the Zoo, winning the peak industry award for the Unique Accommodation category,” said Taronga Western Plains Zoo’s Director, Matthew Fuller.
“This is the first time the Zoo has won the Unique Accommodation category at the national level, recognising our continued endeavours to develop and operate our unique overnight experiences to a global standard,” said Mr Fuller.
Mr Fuller said the win is a wonderful outcome following the Zoo’s significant investment in overnight experiences.
Over the past three years the zoo has undergone some exciting changes with the creation of Billabong Camp, redevelopment of Zoofari Lodge and the opening of Savannah Cabins self-contained accommodation, providing visitors with unique opportunities to wake up in the wild.
“We have benchmarked our experiences against some of the best nature-based operators in the world, and we’re thrilled that these experiences are receiving national and international recognition,” said Mr Fuller.
“The plan will see a number of significant projects take place at the Zoo, with $49.7 million being invested to improve the visitor experience and set Taronga Western Plains Zoo aside from any other Zoo in Australia,” said Mr Fuller. | 2019-04-23T22:04:07 | https://taronga.org.au/media/media-release/2018-07-11/taronga-western-plains-zoo-wins-gold-australian-tourism-awards |
The third US Open Pickleball Championships held in Naples, Florida is now in the record books! Each year this tournament has shattered the record for the most participants in any single tournament. This year’s record was 2,047 players, ages from 10 years old to 91 years young. Players from 47 states and 17 countries sweated and battled away, but always found time for lots of laughs and good clean fun!
Did you miss the action?
“The #1 area I think we all noticed a difference between year one, year two and the third year was the amount of spectators. We knew we were going to have 2,000 players throughout the week but we didn’t realize the amount of spectators. People that just decided to fly down to Naples to be part of the pickleball party! I would dare say we had somewhere between 8,000 – 10,000 spectators. Many also were from southern Florida as we did a pretty large radio campaign to get folks to come to the park to see what pickleball is all about. I think that paid big dividends as well.
And what to look forward to in 2019 … Well, they are working on that STAY TUNED!
The 17 countries represented were: Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Columbia, Germany, India, Mexico, Netherlands, Poland, Russia, Scotland, Slovakia, Spain, Switzerland, United Kingdom and USA. Players: 56% Male and 44% Female. 4,300 matches were completed.
I like this video because Alex Hamner and I are the first clip and I passed Cammy down the line. That was a rare moment as it is hard to get anything pass Cammy MacGregor! Dawson and MacGregor won that final. VIDEO: Amazing Live Stream Highlights from the 2018 Minto US Open Pickleball Championships.

Kitchen Aid is a brand that offers home appliances, and Whirlpool Corporation is the owner of this brand. The brand is known for its stand mixers, the basic design of which has not changed until now. Introduced in 1919, the "K" silhouette has become a registered patent of the company. Presently, the products of this brand are manufactured in different locations, and recently the company moved its staff to St. Joseph, Michigan, so that this corporate office can be near to the headquarters of Whirlpool. The key product, which is the electric mixer manufactured by the company is designed for mixing huge quantity of materials quickly.
There are currently 6 consumer reviews about KitchenAid available. Share your review.
Have a s/s double door built in refrig/freezer that is 6 years old and from the first year the ice maker would freeze up. We have had over 20 service calls to replace the same part and it doesn't last more than 3 months. We have to use a hair dryer to thaw it out at least 3 times a week. We have been told this part is no longer available and even though we have a service contract we are getting the run around. Worst product ever. Will go to LG or Samsung in the future.
I bought 4 KitchenAid appliances, refrig, dishwasher (2 drawer type), microwave and stove in 2011 for my new home. I have had problems with 3 of the appliances...the dishwasher has NEVER worked right. The drawers don't stay open so when I load it I need to use my leg to hold open. The stove operating system was replaced 2 weeks after I got it. And now the refrig has some sort of leak from the ice maker. Surprise! The microwave is fine. I will keep my fingers crossed. I won't be buying KitchenAid again!
We have purchased Kitchen Aid products in the past, and liked them well enough to purchase a Model KUDSS30Ixss dishwasher in June of 2011. What a mistake! There are times when the machine turns on when the control panel is lightly brushed up against. On several occasions we could not bypass the Control Lock button in order to start the machine. Additionally, the cheap plastic silverware holder insets do not fit properly, either falling down pulling out when loading or removing silverware. Yesterday the entire control panel was dead. No light came on. A check of the circuit breaker showed no problem there. A while later someone brushed up against the control panel and a light went on. We were then able to run the machine. Because of our experience with this machine we may not purchase another Kitchen Aid product.
I paid $1000 for a mircowave from Kitchen aid and it has never worked properly. They have come out 3 times trying to fix it and it worked for a short time. I have called, made appointment and no result. They out source to contractors that have no idea on how to repiar these items. I would never buy from them again due to their customer service and lousy products. I actually bought 5 ktichen appliances and 3 had problems but the other two are fixed now. Kitchen aid is not what they used to be.

THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- Aqib Talib created his opportunity on Sunday.
The Los Angeles Rams cornerback sat on a route by Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz at the goal line to intercept his first pass of the season. Talib nearly broke for a touchdown return but was tackled after 30 yards.
Days later, as the Rams prepared to face the Arizona Cardinals, Talib was still getting heckled inside the locker room for not returning the interception all the way.
"He should have cribbed that," Rams cornerback Marcus Peters said. "He just ain't got no vision. He should have went to the house though."
Talib offered a loud rebuttal: "C'mon now. Get your numbers up. Catch me if you can."
Talib has 35 career interceptions in 11 seasons and ranks fourth on the NFL's all-time list of interceptions returned for touchdowns with 10, behind Rod Woodson (12), Darren Sharper (11) and Charles Woodson (11).
Among his career goals: Take over the top spot on that list.
"I'll get there," Talib said, noting that each player ahead of him had a career that spanned at least 14 seasons.
For eight weeks this season, even as the Rams sprinted to an 11-3 record, Talib was sorely missed.
Wade Phillips' defense was forced to play without the lockdown corner after he suffered an ankle injury in Week 3 against the Los Angeles Chargers that required surgery and sent him onto the injured reserve list.
He was activated in Week 13, and his presence has reinvigorated a group that lost some of its direction without the six-time Pro Bowl player, whom the Rams acquired in an offseason trade with the Denver Broncos.
"You can see our team has gotten better since he's been back," said Phillips, whose defense Talib starred in when the Broncos won Super Bowl 50.
In Talib's absence, the Rams' defense allowed an average of 272.6 passing yards per game. Since his return, that number has dropped to 192.7. Passing yards per attempt has fallen off too, moving from 8.66 yards per attempt to 6.58 yards, while the rate of interceptions per attempt has climbed from 2.2 percent to 5.3 percent.
"There's just more urgency, more communication," said Los Angeles safety John Johnson, who leads the team with four interceptions. "There's more studying, more focus, more attention to detail."
Cornerback Troy Hill, who started seven games in Talib's absence, said the veteran's presence and leadership have especially been felt in the meeting room.
"Any indecision, he's going to force you to put it out there, like this is what we're going to do," Hill said.
Talib's return also has come with a sharp improvement on third down. When he was sidelined, teams converted 41.6 percent of their third-down attempts. With Talib on the field, opponents' third-down conversions have dropped to 31.7 percent.
"We're all just a lot more comfortable with each other and just having him back with us, like I said him playing with Wade, and then just have his leadership out there helps us pick up everything," said Peters, who has three interceptions this season.
Talib rehabbed vigorously to return from IR after a minimum of eight weeks, and the Rams have eased him into action.
Talib played only 26 snaps in a victory over the Detroit Lions in Week 13, when the Rams clinched the NFC West for a second consecutive season. He participated in 97 percent of the snaps (69-of-71) the following week in a loss to the Chicago Bears. And he played 100 percent (64) of the snaps in the loss to the Eagles.
"I'm definitely not 100 percent," said Talib, adding that the injury has affected his ability to accelerate. "But it get better every week."
In six games, Talib has three pass deflections, a forced fumble and an interception. The interception came early in the fourth quarter on Sunday with the Eagles on the Rams' 18-yard line.
The pick saved a potential touchdown and kept the Rams within striking distance, as they trailed 30-13.
Rams coach Sean McVay called it a "big-time play" and said it could have shifted the dynamic of the game.
"He understands where his play ops are, where he can be greedy based on some of the calls or where we are on the field," McVay said of Talib. "That's what's made him such an instinctual, great player, is the overall intelligence, the IQ ... matches up with the talent, the ball skills to be able to finish and make those plays."
For the first time in McVay's two seasons as coach, the Rams have lost back-to-back regular-season games. They must rebound Sunday, and hope for a Bears loss, to secure a first-round bye in the playoffs.
The late-season losses represent a similar situation to what Talib experienced with Denver during the 2015 campaign, when the Broncos finished 12-4 in the regular season and defeated the Carolina Panthers in the Super Bowl, despite dropping two games in December.
Talib said he remembered that December slump but noted, "It's football"; and like with the Broncos, there's no need for the Rams to panic as they prepare for their final two games of the regular season and the playoffs.
"You win some; you lose some. Everybody just got to go to work," Talib said. "We know the opportunity that we've got in front of us. So we just got to prepare, prepare, and get the mistakes out of our system and get ready to go on a run." | 2019-04-21T06:09:39 | http://africa.espn.com/blog/los-angeles-rams/post/_/id/39510/aqib-talib-should-have-cribbed-that-int-still-stats-show-his-influence |
Acne is a curse not just because it makes you look bad, but also because it makes you feel bad. You should never feel as if the situation is hopeless, because it isn’t. You can take great strides towards clearing up your skin by making use of a few easy tips. Read these wonderful tips that can help you get control of your skin and feel better about your appearance.
Eating to much meat and dairy will make your acne worst. This change in diet can help you by decreasing hormones in your body that have been known to harm your skin.
Do not mix acne cream. It may seem logical to throw every acne cream you own on the problem skin at the same time. Using more than one acne cream at the same time can end up irritating your skin and making your acne worse.
When it seems that your acne will never go away, see if natural facial products make a positive difference. Many commercially prepared skin care products contain harsh, irritating ingredients that can exacerbate skin problems. When your skin produces more oil, the pores get blocked which is what causes acne. Some natural products have an antibacterial effect, which can heal the skin.
Garlic is a wonderful antioxidant. Not only does it taste great, it can also help you combat skin issues. It functions by purging toxins within your body and helps develop new layers of skin. Drink a little garlic juice or spread some on your morning bagel in your efforts to ward off acne.
Are you aware that using a cell phone can result in pimples? Cellular phones get the oil from your face and hair and deposit it back at your face. You can avoid this by wiping your phone off with alcohol. When you are on the phone do not hold it right against your face.
Avoid the temptation of picking at your acne, as this can cause it to worsen due to the dirt and oil that can be found on your hands. When pores get filled with dirt and clogged up, pimples can result.
Does your acne seem like a never ending problem? Another common reason for chronic acne is weather related allergies. It is also important that you avoid stress. When you are stressed, your body will produce hormones that can lead to skin irritation.
A blemish stick is a good way to hide any blemishes you may have on your face. You can use this product to focus on the area that you have breakouts. Blemish sticks are less likely to block your pores than concealer.
Yes, acne can be difficult to endure, but these tips can help you make a fresh start, get rid of pimples, and have the clear skin you really want. No one should have to suffer from acne and with the willingness to find out what works for you and try a few new things, you could discover exactly the skin solution you’ve been seeking. | 2019-04-19T09:11:00 | http://pingbeauty.info/follow-these-easy-steps-to-battle-acne/ |
Bobbi Kristina Brown — the daughter of the late singer Whitney Houston — was found unresponsive, face down in a bathtub in her Georgia home Saturday before being rushed to the hospital, police said.
Brown’s husband, Nick Gordon, and a friend found her in the tub before 10:20 a.m. and started CPR, said Roswell police spokeswoman Officer Lisa Holland.
Police and rescue personnel arrived at the subdivision, north of Atlanta, and performed life-saving measures before Brown, 21, was brought alive and breathing to the nearby North Fulton Hospital.
Officer Lisa Holland, a spokeswoman for the Roswell police, said Brown, whose 22nd birthday is in March, was taken alive to North Fulton Hospital in Roswell.
The incident, which remains under investigation, comes a week after a TV movie about her mother and two weeks before the three-year anniversary of her mother’s death, which happened on the eve of the 2012 Grammy Awards.
Detectives don’t believe foul play was involved, and the incident is being treated as a medical investigation, Holland said Saturday afternoon.
No further information about Brown’s condition was made available. Police were last called to the home on Jan. 23 after a reported “fight,” but officers found no evidence when they arrived, Holland said.
Brown’s scare comes less than two weeks before the third anniversary of her mother’s death. Houston, a seven-time Grammy winner, was found submerged in a bathtub in a Beverly Hills, California, hotel on Feb. 11, 2012. She was later pronounced dead.
Brown is also the daughter of R&B singer Bobby Brown.
Houston, 48, had struggled for years with cocaine, marijuana and pills, and her behavior had become erratic. Authorities examining Houston’s death found a dozen prescription drug bottles in the hotel suite. They concluded that she accidentally drowned. Heart disease and cocaine use were also listed as contributing factors in her death. | 2019-04-22T22:07:59 | https://hypelifemagazine.com/celebritynews/whitney-houstons-daughter-bobbi-found-unresponsive-tub/ |
Highland Park girls basketball coach Mike Calhoun obviously is chomping at the bit to get his Lady Scots back at full strength.
But the fact that Highland Park is off to a 3-0 start without standouts Dariauna Carter and Jae'Mya Lyons could bode well for the Scots later in the season.
With Carter and Lyons, both second-team All-City picks a year ago, on the sidelines while recovering from ACL injuries, several Scot newcomers have been thrust into varsity playing time while other returners have stepped up to take on more prominent roles as team leaders.
Calhoun believes both of those things will make Highland Park stronger when Lyons and Carter are ready to return.
Despite being short-handed, the Scots have dominated their first three games, including a 61-42 win over city rival Shawnee Heights on Wednesday night.
Junior Cierra Sherman scored a game-high 23 points with five 3-pointers against the T-Birds while junior Ariyana Grassity added 11 points.
The Scots could face their biggest test thus far on Friday when Topeka West visits Highland Park for a 6 p.m. contest.
Friday's game will be the season opener for David Meseke's Chargers and it will be the Centennial League opener for both schools.
Topeka West junior Miyah Larson was a second-team All-City pick a year ago while senior Gabby Rivera was third-team All-City for the Chargers, who were 4-17.
The girls game will be followed by a 7:45 p.m. boys league game between the 0-2 Scots and Topeka West, which will be playing its first game of the year.
Highland Park is coming off a 55-53 road loss to Ottawa, with sophomore CJ Powell scoring 17 points and senior Jai'Shaun Spicer adding 11 points.
Rick Bloomquist's West team was 15-7 last season, but the Chargers graduated four senior starters off that team. Senior Korbin Kido is West's lone returning starter, but the Chargers look to reload from freshman and junior varsity teams that were a combined 34-6.
Washburn Rural improved to 2-0 with a 52-38 win over Shawnee Mission Northwest on Tuesday while Hayden opened its season with a 56-35 loss to Lawrence. Senior Carly Bachelor led Rural with 17 points and 10 rebounds while junior Kasey Hamilton added 16 points and freshman Emma Krueger 10. Junior Sophia Purcell led Hayden with 11 points against Lawrence while sophomore Rhen Calhoon added 10 points. Friday’s game will be the Centennial League opener for both schools. Game time: 6:15 p.m.
Shawnee Heights is coming off a 61-42 loss to Highland Park on Wednesday, with sophomore Adysen Burghart leading the T-Birds with 11 points. Sophomore Tatum Brown added eight points and junior Kam Wells seven. Ottawa dropped a 55-26 decision to Highland Park on Tuesday. Game time: 5:30 p.m.
Topeka High improved to 2-0 with a 72-59 non-league Tuesday night win over Kansas City-Schlagle, a Class 5A state tournament participant last season. Freshman NiJaree led the Trojans with 27 points while senior Jaryn Benning added 18 points. Junction City is coming off a 60-25 loss to Great Bend on Tuesday night. Both teams will be opening Centennial League competition. Game time: 6 p.m.
Seaman dropped a 56-54 road decision to Lansing on Tuesday in the Vikings’ season opener, with junior Chloe Carter leading the Vikings with 18 points while senior Megan Skoch added 11 points with three 3-pointers. Manhattan went 2-1 in last week’s Hays Shootout, with the Indians dropping a 48-36 decision to 5A power Aquinas on Saturday. Friday’s game will open Centennial League play for both teams. Game time: 6 p.m.
Washburn Rural posted its second straight decisive non-league victory, taking a 67-44 home decision over SM Northwest on Tuesday. Seniors Jordan White and Savian Edwards scored 15 and 12 points for the Junior Blues while junior Drew Bortz scored a career-high 11 points. Hayden, last year’s 4A Division II state champion, will be opening its season. Senior Levi Braun leads the Wildcats as Hayden’s lone returning starter. Friday will be a Centennial League game for both schools. Game time: 7:45 p.m.
Shawnee Heights was off Tuesday after romping past United Kansas Conference foe DeSoto in the T-Birds’ season opener last Friday. Sophomore Harvey Davis Jr. and senior Isaiah Bonjour both scored 14 points for Heights against DeSoto while junior Marquez Barksdale added 12 points. Ottawa beat Highland Park 55-53 on Tuesday, with Kobe Johnson scoring 18 points and Jayson Brown adding 12 points with three 3-pointers. Game time: 7:45 p.m.
Seaman opened its season Tuesday with a 68-47 non-league win at Lansing, with seniors Kobe Bonner and Trey Duffey scoring 27 and 15 points for the Vikings. Manhattan went 2-1 in last week’s Hays Shootout, winning its first two games before dropping a 60-55 decision on Saturday to Millwood, Okla. Both the Indians and Vikings will be opening their Centennial League schedule on Friday. Game time: 7:45 p.m.
Note: Topeka High will continue play in the Leavenworth tournament, facing Raytown South (Mo.) at 4 p.m. | 2019-04-26T16:47:03 | https://www.cjonline.com/sports/20181206/highland-park-girls-off-to-quick-3-0-start-despite-being-short-handed |
The Hippodrome Theatre originally opened as a variety theatre in 1914, and was then converted to a cinema in 1930. As the Hippodrome Super Cinema the premises changed hands on a few occasions, until it was converted back to a theatre in 1950 and renamed the Hippodrome Theatre. The theatre run touring shows through the decade, but the shows began to decline and eventually it closed down in 1959.
The building stood empty until it was bought by Mecca Ltd and converted to a bingo hall which opened in 1962. Alongside the bingo, the Hippodrome continued to have the occasional one night show and game of housey, housey (betting on pre-recorded horse races.) Like the cinema before it, the Bingo hall changed ownership several times before its closure. For the last section of its life, it was a part of the Walkers Bingo brand.
Since the closure of the club in January 2007, the Derby New Theatre Association tried unsuccessfully to buy the hall in the hope of returning it to its former use as a theatre. However, a fire at the premises in February 2008 has left the building's future less than certain. It currently stands empty.
Were you connected to the Walkers / Mecca Bingo Green Lane, Derby? Be it as a staff member or customer, we'd love to hear about this club when it was open - send your comments and memories about the staff, the members, the events and general atmosphere of this lost bingo club; to keep here for posterity's sake.
I was a bingo caller at 17 at the Hippodrome in 1965. It was alive. I think it was Frank Knight assistant manager, and Street or something like that who was the manager. He was ex-CID. I had to light the gas exit lights and put them out at night. It was really creepy on your own up in the 'gods. Friday and Saturday it was dress suit and cumberbuns. I called for Star bingo as well.
Listed below are a couple of clubs in the area as an alternative to the Walkers / Mecca Bingo Derby. | 2019-04-18T19:09:11 | http://playingbingo.co.uk/land-bingo/lost-halls/d/derby-walkers-bingo-green-lane/index.php |

This #MemberMonth we’re celebrating you!
Have you ever heard a story and thought, “I can relate to that” or “That’s exactly what I needed to hear today.”? The truth is, we all have a story to share. Heartfelt stories, courageous stories, embarrassing stories and stories that still make you laugh, even 10 years down the road.
Every IABC/BC member shapes our chapter with their unique story, and because March is IABC’s #MemberMonth—a month to celebrate the amazing people behind our chapter—we’re sharing inspiring stories about the true value of IABC/BC from members who have advanced their careers, made lifelong connections across the globe, found their purpose, cultivated networks and built skills in areas that were unfamiliar.
When Sheryl Gray realized she wanted to work in communications, she showed up at an IABC/BC committee meeting for volunteers and started writing profiles for the chapter newsletter. She later joined our board of directors.
When Ryan Paulson, wanted to make a move to the private sector he joined IABC/BC and volunteered on various committees. Through volunteering, he was able to work on projects that he didn’t typically get to do in his day-to-day work, and with the help of his IABC mentor, he realized what he wanted to focus on in his career.
Above all else, IABC is a community. A family. A tight-knit network of people who will support you through every stage of your career. Our members come from all kinds of backgrounds, work in various industries, and have a range of experience.

I am feeling super relieved at the moment, I have got just over a week off work so I'm hoping in this short period of time that I will manage to write up a couple of weeks post. I will still be posting 3 blog posts a week. Seriously though, if you're a mother and you work and blog everyday I take my hat off to you. I'm trying my best to keep to a schedule, haha.
Anyway, with that aside, over the last month or so I've been trialling out some new skincare from Skinbreeze. Admittedly I had never heard of Skinbreeze beforehand which is a surprise to me as many celebrities seem to be raving about their treatments. Skinbreeze is not necessarily a brand but a professional salon based treatment system who have their own skincare range. They cater for every skin type and skin concern possible.
For me though acne is my main concern since it started in my teens. I have tried many things to combat it such as over the counter medicines and even roaccutane which only resulted in the spots popping back up again. Acne really puts a dent in my confidence, and even though it's not as bad as it was a few years back before roaccutane, it's still present and affects me. As well as the acne, my complexion tends to look quite dull too, and dare I say it, lifeless, especially in the morning. I crave clear, glowing skin, and that's exactly what I was hoping for when I trialled the Skinbreeze Brightening Serum and Blemish Fix.
Let's talk packaging first shall we? It may seem slightly strange that the serum is within a syringe but I actually find it so much easier to work with as you're able to control how much product you need to apply. I find that I only need to dispense one small 'pump' to use all over my face.
The Blemish Fix is as you'd guess, for problematic, acne prone skin. It contains the main spot fighting ingredient, salicylic acid which helps to prevent oil from getting trapped in the pores. As well as salicylic acid it also contains hyaluronic acid and seaweed extract to soothe and hydrate. The instructions are to apply it every morning and night but I only applied it at night as I felt that it was too much for me to use twice a day. The Blemish Fix serum makes my skin feel incredibly dry so a moisturiser is definitely needed after use. Personally I didn't see any difference in my complexion at all, except for the tight, dry feeling that the serum left behind unfortunately. I'm so surprised seeing as it contains hyaluronic acid. I'm gutted I didn't get along with it.
As for the Brightening Serum, well, that's a totally different story. It's supposed to lighten and brighten any dull complexion and help towards reducing any pigmentation left behind from acne and brown spots too. Well it definitely takes my complexion from dull to bright and glowy, however I never noticed any change in my scarring from my acne. That's still as prominent as ever. It's instructed that I applied this on a clean face day and night and I stuck to that, just for a while, but eventually decided upon applying it in the morning before applying my makeup. It creates a nice illuminating base for my makeup for sure.
The Brightening Serum and Blemish Fix along with the rest of the Skinbreeze skincare range is available within all Skinbreeze Salons nationwide. From what I can tell it doesn't look like the Skinbreeze is available online unfortunately. | 2019-04-21T20:36:09 | https://www.bylaurenmay.com/2016/06/skinbreeze-skincare-brightening-serum-and-blemish-fix.html |

Rated 5 out of 5 by melodynyc from My Dream Winter Coat I got this coat last season as an investment piece to have for years to come. It has fulfilled all of my expectations. It is beautiful, well made, and warmer than any other coat I've ever owned. I have gotten so many compliments on it. This will be in my wardrobe for a long time.
Rated 5 out of 5 by ElenaB from Worth the price I bought this coat for my move to brace the northeastern winters, and it was 100% worth it! I can wear a thin long sleeve shirt underneath this jacket in 20 degree weather and still feel perfectly warm. The jacket isn't too heavy either despite insulating so well.
Rated 4 out of 5 by DJDJ from Very well made I am 5.2 and 100 lbs and XS fits me perfectly. It’s a beautiful jacket and I am very happy with my purchase.
Rated 3 out of 5 by Kjvb from Stylish jacket I bought this a month ago and it it warmer than I imagined. As a northerner I’m glad it comes with real fur as it is much warmer and looks better. But I’m disappointed with the arm length- it makes it impossible to use the wrist cuffs. Also, the inner lining is of a lower quality material then another S&K jacket I bought a few years ago.
Rated 5 out of 5 by TBarg from So Warm! I purchased this coat in November and I'm SO happy I did! It's been so nice and warm for sitting in those cold hockey rinks this winter! I ordered my normal size of small and it fits perfectly! Note, however, if you have slightly wider shoulders or longer arms this prob won't be a good fit for you!
Rated 5 out of 5 by JWS1240 from Well made beautiful coat This coat is flattering, warm and with thoughtful details. The coat does run big; hence, all the super small sizes are always out of stock. I had trouble completing the purchase online and their customer service department was extremely friendly and helpful.
Rated 5 out of 5 by AK88 from Super warm and cozy I got this in November and immediately felt the difference in quality and warmth between this and my Community parka from Aritizia - totally worth it, love the fit and colour.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Saundra from Warm and Stylish I am so happy with my new coat. It is the warmest coat I have ever owned, repels water, and looks good too. It has great features and pockets, and the fur is removable. | 2019-04-22T00:35:33 | https://www.soiakyo.com/us/en/saundra-mid-length-classic-down-coat/SAUNDRA-C.html |
Hey everyone My name is Andrew I am new here so i would like to introduce myself to everyone. I live in NY and although I am not newe to bikes, I am working my my first bike build that is not a chopper/cruiser type. I used to race closed circuit street bikes and dirt bikes.
I picked up a 1987Honda VT700c, its is just a mess right now its been sitting for a while and sat outside for the last year uncovered and untouched. was not kept properly but its an extremely good bike for a build.
I am tearing the bike apart and am here just checking out what people are up to. mostly here for info, knowledge and ideas.
since the bike did not come with front brakes at all, no calipers, master cylinder or levers and a seal leak.. I was thinking of replacing the whole complete front end of the bike with a Yamaha R1 front end. It would make my front end look alot beefier ofcourse but i am thinking it will also have 10 times better stopping power. Has anyone ever done something like this? or should I just rebuild the forks to stock and just add whatever is missing?
would like to hear peoples opinions and stories if anyone has any to share.
Thanks all and pleasure meeting everyone!
I am pretty new here but from looking around this site it is pretty clear the anything can be done to a motorcycle. If you are looking for a new front end I would take a look and figure out your steering stem length and diameter. Once you have these numbers then I would search for (look at modern Honda bikes, more likely to find a match in the same manufacturer) a front end that would be a direct bolt on. Depending on your end goal you might look at sport bike front ends or dirt bike front ends. I have spent a bit of time trying to stretch my front end out and in the end had to order longer fork tube to suit my build.
Happy Hunting and good luck with the build.
I would look at the neck bearing part number for the front end that you want to use. I suggest looking at All Balls or even Bike Bandit. If the part number is the same then the only thing you would have to look at is stem length. The Japanese bikes are usually pretty good about standardizing their stuff. For example: a Road Star and certain year R6 front forks will bolt on to a XS650 chassis. Hopefully this helps.
How would i do that? Just get shorter shocks?
Quickest cheapest way to lower a swingarm bike is with struts. Make 'em any length you want.
Rebuild the stock forks if the tubes arent pitted.
You can swap tubes/lowers from any bike as long at the diameters match the trees... axles, spacers and brakes will need some thought/effort. Pay attention to overall length too.
Stem swaps are not unheard of.
Ride now add front brakes later. If youre ok with that sort of thing. | 2019-04-24T22:36:04 | http://www.chopcult.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-49125.html?s=e6f85100aa6d951eb7aa81d87cadb8d9 |

A Michigan oncologist has pleaded guilty to 16 counts of health care fraud. The guilty plea comes a year after Dr. Farid Fata was indicted on charges he deliberately misdiagnosed patients with cancer in order to justify unnecessary treatment, including high doses of chemotherapy, and then billed insurers. Prosecutors are pushing for life in prison.
Angela, a nurse who filed a complaint against Dr. Fata after she interviewed for a job in his office, previously appeared on The Doctors, along with one of Dr. Fata's patients.
She attended the court hearing where Dr. Fata entered his guilty plea.
"I was so angry sitting in that courtroom, because truly he used his patients as commodities," Angela says. "They were commodities to him. If they were not sitting in his chemotherapy chairs, he was not making any money."
In September 2013, shortly after Dr. Fata was arrested on charges of health care fraud, Maggie, one of the Dr. Fata's patients who was misdiagnosed with cancer, spoke out on national television for the first time.
Maggie said Dr. Fata ran some blood tests and diagnosed her with multiple myeloma, a cancer of the plasma cells. He told her she needed to begin chemotherapy immediately. But after about six months of treatment, she said the side effects were so debilitating, she decided to seek second and third opinions. Both doctors found that she never had cancer and didn't need chemotherapy. By then, Maggie said, the damage already had been done.
"My quality of life went from being active with my family to being bedridden," Maggie said.
Maggie shares her story for the first time on national television, and hear from Angela, a nurse who filed a complaint after interviewing at Dr. Fata's office.
Surgeon and hospital safety researcher Dr. Martin Makary and oncologist Dr. Lawrence Piro discuss what might have led to Maggie's diagnosis. Hear what Maggie says she would do differently. | 2019-04-20T07:17:58 | https://www.thedoctorstv.com/articles/2787-doctor-pleads-guilty-to-health-care-fraud |

Heavenly Daze is the obvious hard sport line that is immediately left of the Nameless Demons dihedral and about 50' left of the start of Days of Heaven.
It is probably a little soft for the grade, but nevertheless the climbing is fantastic. There are several very hard moves (two of which are pulling over bulges) on postive holds but none of them felt reach-dependent or insecure. The definite crux comes around the 5th/6th bolt - ramping edges and difficult feet. The climb is very well-bolted: run out enough to make you not want to blow it, but the bolts are located well and the clipping holds are always good.
Three bolts, a pin, three more bolts, an epoxied stopper. Small wires can supplement the gear but they would be very pumpy to place.
Did the route shortly after the FA, with Patience and ripped off this huge tooth of a rock which landed exactly where her head would have been as she sat belaying. If I hadn't fallen and pulled her ever so slightly to the side, I would be writing a much different comment.... Needless to say, that was a very bad situation, and I can't believe we kept climbing. We both were running on a shot of adrenaline, for sure! | 2019-04-22T06:07:30 | https://www.mountainproject.com/route/105760314/heavenly-daze |

Promotions for 'Catching Fire' have included a fake website which features glamorous shots of the movie's main characters.
The 'Hunger Games' films star Jennifer Lawrence.
The fake publication is in line with the high priority placed on fashion in the superficial Capitol in Collins’s world and the way that the tributes who are chosen for the Games instantly become celebrities.
Cover Girl is also promoting products in tandem with “Catching Fire,” allowing consumers to “choose their district” and creating makeup looks based on the main products of each district. (A customer choosing district four, for example, would be offered blue and green products based on the fact that the district is responsible for much of the fishing done by the country).
Fans can also buy Capitol-inspired looks designed by the movies’ costume designer Trish Summerville through retailer Net-A-Porter.
According to Variety, Lionsgate marketing chief Tim Palen has spearheaded this effort.
Collins told Variety she is impressed by the marketing campaign.

Jesus is the Sovereign Lord. He demonstrated this with His victory over Satan, sin and death. Conquering these three demonstrated His sovereignty.
This Sovereign Lord rules with a “mighty arm.” Raw power is a frightening thing. Yet, Christ is kindly. Human goodness, in our own strength, goes sour. His goodness never fails.
“He gathers the lambs in his arms.” Jesus takes special care with weakest members until they mature. He gathers them close when they cannot stand, cannot follow, and cannot keep up with the pace.
“He carries them close to his heart.” Jan tells of a time when she visited her grandparents in WV during a flood. They had to walk over the river on a narrow bridge beneath which there were frightening turbulent waters. She has a tender memory is of her grandfather taking her into his arms, holding her close to his chest, and carrying her across. This is how our God carries us in times of great distress is we will trust Him.
“He gently leads those that have young.” No one is more vulnerable than those who care for others as a ewe cares for her young. Responsibility weakens us, delays us, and may be overwhelming. All who care for others have the promise that Jesus is there to lead. | 2019-04-19T08:20:31 | http://www.parkway-church.org/advent-devotions/2018/12/12/december-12th-the-arm-of-the-lord |

William Stout has had a long and acclaimed career as one of the finest painters and professional artists in the world. Best known for his love of dinosaurs, Stout has also painted murals, drawn comics, illustrated film storyboards and much more. His paintings of dinosaurs are legendary, and have resulted in Stout being offered commissions to paint the creatures on giant murals at museums. He also has released a number of books through Flesk Publications, which provide a great look at the work that this amazing artist has created throughout his career.
Jason Sacks: Your take on some of the creatures you illustrate is unique. How much did you try to follow the classical monsters, and how much did you bring yourself?
William Stout: With the trolls, I was following the style of Swedish children's book illustrator John Bauer. The Nome King was drawn in the style of classic Oz illustrator John. R. Neill. The dragons are strictly of my own creation, informed by my knowledge of dinosaur anatomy (except for the Sea Dragon picture which was solidly influenced by Arthur Rackham, and the Chinese dragon which was derived from several different ancient depictions of dragons on Chinese robes).
The Jabberwock was informed by John Tenniell's sole illustration of that beast; I tried to make it much more anatomically logical, though, as well as more rhythmical and dynamic. The monsters in the illustrations from Abu & The 7 Marvels were created in direct response to Richard Matheson's text. The Oni is my somewhat Westernized take on the Japanese creature. The Edgar Rice Burroughs were inspired by his ever-so-illustratable texts.
Sacks: Did you create some creatures of your own design?
Stout: Yes; the rest are pretty much just out of my head or influenced by my observations of nature.
Sacks: How did you come up with the ideas for them?
Stout: I do what I call "thinking with my pen". I always have a sketchbook with me so that I can never be in a situation where I can get bored. I like to make lots of little thumbnail roughs in an attempt to come up with interesting picture ideas and creature designs. I may not have a specific problem I'm trying to solve or even necessarily a subject matter in my head that I want to explore. I often honestly don't know where the heck my pen is going to lead me. That keeps it interesting for me.
Sacks: Did you try to follow a certain train of thought when depicting them?
ce could be lurking inside my pen, just waiting to spring out onto the next page.
If I'm stuck for a picture idea I will brainstorm and make a very quick long list of every word associated with the subject I am attempting to portray. Then, I'll take words from the list that are rarely, if ever, seen in association with each other and pair them up to create a fresh new concept or idea.
Sacks: You talked about having "problems that you want to solve" with your art. That's an intriguing phrase. How do you approach your art as "problems to solve"?
Stout: If you think about it, each painting and each illustration presents a problem to be solved. Typically for me, that "problem" is an idea I need to convey in an arresting manner. My goal is to solve this problem before me in a way that is fresh, surprising, original and interesting.
These creatures have been painted hundreds of times by some of the best artists in the business.
What can I do that they haven't done? In the case of The Mummy, for example, I depicted him wearing a pharaoh's headdress, something I've never seen before.
Besides depicting familiar monsters in a unique way, these paintings also have to function as covers that can be read from across a shop, hopefully enticing the casual observer to purchase the magazine.
When I am trying to solve a visual problem, I don't limit myself with the parameters of style. If the solution I come up with requires a style of art that I have never done before, I figure out how to duplicate that style. That's when my versatility comes in really handy.
Sometimes that means coming up with a style that doesn't yet exist. For example, I just created a new zombie painting for my 2012 Zombies! calendar. This was the image for October. Instead of doing another Halloween zombie, I decided to surprise my collectors with a Mexican Day of the Dead image.
I lived for almost a year in Mexico City while I was working on Dune and Conan the Destroyer, so I'm intimately familiar with the myriad of Day of the Dead rituals and icons. Nevertheless, I refreshed my memory by going through loads of Day of the Dead graphics, noting the common visual imagery among them — I found lots of cool stuff but I didn't find what I thought was an appropriate art style. I wanted this piece to be simple and graphic like traditional Mexican folk art, so I just made up a new style to go with the imagery I had come up with in my rough. It's honestly not like any other work I've done before. It's always nice to stretch yourself as an artist, something I strive to do as often as possible.
Sacks: What are some of your favorite creations that have come from the word association game you mention?
y combined "lance" with "dragon" and came up with the idea of a dragon barbecuing a knight, skewered like a shish kabob on the hapless knight's own lance. To sweeten this macabre scenario, I had the dragon dreaming about cooking the knight for his loving girlfriend dragon.
Sacks: Did you grow up seeing their work?
Stout: No, I didn't. We were very poor. As a little kid whenever I would wish upon a star it was almost always the same wish: that when I went back inside the house to my room, if I looked underneath my bed I would find a chest of books (I also loved food and would sometimes wish for my own package of cheddar cheese).
Sacks: Did your parents encourage your love for classical illustration?
Stout: No, not directly; they just weren't aware of classical illustration. Some of my first books, however, were Poky Little Puppy and Big Brown Bear, both illustrated by the great Gustaf Tenggren, who is still one of my favorite artists. Oddly, enough, though, as poor as we were, my parents would occasionally buy original oil paintings for the walls of our home — usually landscapes; some good, some bad.
Sacks: You're best known for your dinosaur art. Why do you love them so much?
Stout: The first movie I ever saw was the original 1933 King Kong. I was three years old. Not long after that I saw Walt Disney's Fantasia. I was awestruck by the Rites of Springsequence. I think the combo of the two damaged me at a genetic level; it's been dinosaurs, dinosaurs, dinosaurs ever since.
Sacks: You got to work early in your career with legends like Russ Manning and Harvey Kurtzman. Do you have any stories about working with them?
Stout: I learned an enormous amount from both of these great men.
Besides teaching me loads about the creation of comic art and turning me on to Japanese prints, by my own observation Russ Manning taught me how to be a great father (my own father left us when I was 14).
The biggest thing I learned from Harvey was to never assume knowledge. Once, when I was working with Harvey and Willy Elder on Little Annie Fanny, I began to pencil in a fire hydrant that Harvey had roughed in. "Wait!" He stopped me. "Do you really know what a fire hydrant looks like, or are you assuming you do?" he asked. "Grab the page and a pencil and let's go outside."
We walked out to the street where Harvey immediately spotted a fire hydrant.
"Now compare your drawing to the real thing."
The hydrant I had drawn would have been identifiable to any member of the public as a fire hydrant. But looking at a real one, I saw crucial details I had missed. I corrected my drawing. It now rang with vibrant authenticity. Although Annie was a comic strip, Harvey wanted her world to ring as true to its readers as the actual one in which we all lived.
Harvey never assumed he knew how to draw any hand position, no matter how many times he had drawn that same position in the past. He always drew hands looking at his own hands for reference.
I've been a stickler for that kind of authenticity ever since. It really slows you down, though. I call it my "Kurtzman Curse".
Sacks: You've done so much different art – fantasy paintings, nature paintings, murals, comics, storyboards, even a designer of rides at Disney parks. Is there one thing you love above others?
Stout: My favorite work is painting murals, oil on canvas. They're large, they're permanent (a true artistic legacy) and most of them are huge, difficult graphic problems to be solved. The more difficult the problem, the more I like it. I love doing the research for the murals as well. Research has always been a fun part of being an artist.
After mural painting, my favorite work is doing oil paintings of natural history subjects and creating comic book art. It's sad that comic art pays so poorly; it's just as hard (if not harder) to do than other forms of art.
I really like creating ink and watercolor pictures, too. Line is very important to me.
Sacks: Is there anything else you'd like fans to know about you or your work?
Stout: Despite my very black sense of humor, I won't take any job that is a detriment to or adds to the pain of our society. No tobacco ads, for example, or anything that promotes the hatred that cynically gets spewed out each day over talk radio.
They should also be aware that I will never intentionally try to disappoint them. A long time ago I took on Norman Rockwell's motto: 100%. That means that after all the negotiations are over, no matter how much (or how little) I am being paid for a job, I will put in 100% of my absolute best effort to solve my client's problems and create the finest work possible in the time allowed me. It's a terrific way to get good real fast, plus, knowing you tried your best, you never have to look back on any job with shame or regret, knowing you could have done better. | 2019-04-21T08:43:06 | http://comicsbulletin.com/william-stout-always-100/ |
Phoenix College offers the only Interpreter Preparation Program (IPP) in Maricopa County. The program consists of a variety of courses including American Sign Language (ASL), interpreting classes, Deaf culture, and related coursework.
to earn foreign language transfer credits.
American Sign Language (ASL) is the language used by the majority of deaf people in the United States and much of Canada. It is not a manual code of English but a visual/gestural language which has unique grammatical, lexical, and other linguistic features.
Interpreting is a complex task that requires a high degree of fluency in two languages. Students must become fluent in ASL, and those who become ASL interpreters must use advanced cultural and linguistic knowledge to ensure that communication between parties is natural and effortless.
Students who wish to become a certified interpreter must pass the Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf written and performance tests.
Note: As is common with other programs throughout the country, many graduates may pass the written portion of the national Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf exam upon completion of the program and continue to upgrade their skills for a few years in order to pass the skills portion of the exam.
Graduates of the ASL/IPP program may continue their education for a Bachelor of Applied Sciences degree at Arizona State University–West. ASU-West offers various areas of emphasis that can be pursued to complement students’ particular interests related to the interpreting field or other fields of study where skills gained through interpreter education may be an asset. Contact the Transfer Center for information.
Sign language interpreting is a rapidly expanding field with an increasing demand for qualified interpreters. Public and private agencies, businesses, and schools are often in need of professional interpreters to meet their mandated responsibilities for communication access. Interpreters may work in full-time or part-time positions, or they may do freelance work. Freelance interpreters enjoy flexible hours and a variety of settings including medical, legal, religious, mental health, rehabilitation, performing arts, and business.

...The Quran contains Islamic Monotheism; Allah’s promises, warnings and Commandments; stories of previous nations; and codes of the best conduct and behavior. These various subjects in the Quran have different effects on the heart. Some Surahs (chapters) of the Quran are more frightening than others.
The Messenger of Allah said, what translated means, "Hud (chapter 11) and its sisters (chapters 56, 77, 78 and 81) have brought me white hairs before their due time." [As-Silsilah As-Sahihah].
and he was clearly heard by those who were standing behind him. Furthermore, Uthman ibn `Affan said, "If our hearts were pure, they will never have enough from reciting Allah’s Speech (the Quran)."
"Then every person shall be paid what he earned, and they shall not be dealt with unjustly." [Surah Al Baqarah 2:281].
and then fell in Sujud. Then, he said to himself, "Here you are, you do the Sujud, so where is the crying?"
...Ibn Al-Qayyim said with regards to what one should do to cure his weak Iman using the Quran, "First you should remove your heart from the life of this world and settle it in the Last Life. Then, pay your full attention to pursuing the meanings of the Quran, and try to comprehend and understand them and what they were sent down to accomplish. Then, offer these meanings to the sickness that your heart feels, and when they touch the disease, they will cure the heart, Allah willing." | 2019-04-19T10:59:41 | http://www.khilafatworld.com/2011/03/healing-weak-iman.html |

A lot has been written about how millennials are different. Researchers have suggested that millennials have fundamentally different attitudes, values, perceptions, and preferences than prior generations, and their lifestyles will eventually transform our cities into bastions of sustainable mobility. Well, that’s unlikely to happen after all, according to new research published by a team of School of Civil and Environmental Engineering researchers specializing in transportation systems analysis.

“Man is perfect at his origin, a divine being who has degenerated into what we are.” — R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz, Egyptian Miracle.
“… primeval man was the truest model and representative of man, and that all human progress since, though upward in some things, has been in the main an unceasing deterioration…All the world that came next after primeval man honored and even worshipped their first fathers as very gods of light, knowledge and greatness.” — Joseph A. Seiss, Gospel of the Stars.
“Then she added a prophecy in which she foretold the approaching end of the Divine Age and the beginning of a new one, in which the summers would be flowerless, the cows milk less and women shameless and men strengthless, in which there will be trees without fruit and seas without fish, when old men would give false judgments and legislators make unjust laws, when warriors would betray one another and men would be thieves and there would be no more virtue in the world.” — Prophesy of Badb, War Queen of Ireland.
And then comes the question of why we don’t remember our past lives. We are constantly born into ignorance and the only knowledge available was what the gods gave us — religions and ideologies. After a few short years, we die in ignorance and then return again. This keeps the herd in order. Without any remembrance, we are imprisoned in ignorance, without the proper tools to break free. Occasionally a few great souls were able to liberate themselves, but the priests took control of their teachings. They skewed them and butchered them into religions.
“To see the universe as it is, you must step beyond the net. It is not hard to do so, for the net is full of holes. Look at the net and its many contradictions. You do and undo at every step. You want peace, love and happiness, and work hard to create pain, hatred and war. You want longevity and you overeat. You want friendship and you exploit. See your net as made of such contradictions and remove them — your very seeing will make them go away.” — Nisargadatta Maharaj.
See the matrix for what it is. It seems all powerful, without any way of escape, But it is full of holes. If you have an open mind, discernment and the eyes to see, this whole game is nothing more than a house of cards. In “Ask Simple Questions” I showed many examples of how this entire matrix is falling apart at the seams. The question is, will you wake up, or be dragged away in the net, to continue on the wheel of birth and death?

TORONTO -- Whither David Irving?
The British Holocaust revisionist, who entered and stayed in Canada despite an order barring him and another ordering him to leave the country within 48 hours, faced deportation to Great Britain as the CJN went to press Monday afternoon.
Minutes before midnight Sunday, Irving attempted to cross over into the United States, which refused to accept him. He spent the night at an immigration detention centre in Niagara Falls, Ont., pending a hearing Monday.
It is not known why U.S. officials refused Irving entry. Some speculate it may have been because the author did not truthfully disclose the purpose of his visit when he entered Canada, or because he entered Canada despite an order barring him from doing so.
Irving's odyssey began last month, when he was served in Los Angeles with an order barring him entry to Canada, where he had scheduled a two-week, five-province speaking tour.
Irving nevertheless sneaked into the country at the Niagara Falls crossing and made his way to Victoria, where he delivered a speech in a restaurant to about 100 supporters.
Just as he was about to finish, police officers moved in and arrested him.
Irving's lawyer, Doug Christie, then appealed to Federal Court for an injunction to rescind the order banning his client. Judge Barry Strayer allowed the ban to stand.
At an adjudication hearing Friday. Irving was given 48 hours to leave after Christie and officials of the immigration department struck a deal.
The deal allowed Irving to leave under a departure notice rather than a more serious and immediate deportation order.
But Irving made full use of the 48-hour window. He came to Toronto over the weekend, where he delivered a speech to about 100 followers at the Primrose Hotel.
It was after the speech he tried to cross into the United States.
Immigration department spokesman Milt Best told The CJN Monday morning that a hearing in Niagara Falls was called on charges that Irving did not comply with his order to leave.
Best said Irving was technically on Canadian soil after the stroke of midnight Sunday, when the 48 hours had elapsed .
He said Irving faces deportation to his native England because the Americans don't want him.
Irving has admitted he lied when he crossed the border into Canada . He said he told officials than he would be touring Ontario .
A t a press conference Monday morning, B'nai Brith Canada said allowing Irving 48 hours to leave ''is like giving the fox 48 hours to leave the chicken coop.
Marvin Kurz of BBC's League for Human Rights said strict terms should have been attached to Irving's departure notice and he blasted federal officials for agreeing to a plea bargain from Christie.
BBC also called for the establishment of an "interdepartmental" task force to monitor the movements of white supremacists and neo-Nazis. The group would like to see more co-ordination between the departments of immigration, Canada Customs and provincial attorneys-general .
Irving is best known for his belief that the number of Jews killed in the Holocaust has been greatly exaggerated and that gas chambers at Auschwitz, were erected after the war as tourist attractions.
Irving's deportation could mean his permanent ban from Canada. He is already barred from several countries, including Germany and Austria. | 2019-04-23T12:25:26 | http://www.fpp.co.uk/docs/press/items/CJN031192.html |

Interview with Victoria Reichelt: Objects in Danger. | 2019-04-26T00:54:44 | https://sharnewolff.com.au/ |
Monday night marked Elle magazine's 25th annual Women in Hollywood event, which recognizes female celebrities who have used their fame to for significant and worthwhile issues affecting other women worldwide. Among the star-studded recipients the queen mother herself, Lady Gaga.
With the recent release of A Star is Born, the world has seen Gaga dazzle red carpet premieres in gorgeous couture gowns and STUNNING hair and makeup looks as only Gaga can do.
Here she is at the UK premiere of A Star is Born.
Oh my gawsh, WOW! Here's our queen again looking like an actual crystal trophy I want to put on my desk and stare at forever and ever, amen!
I will now take time to say if you haven't seen A Star Is Born, I need you to PHYSICALLY run to the movie theater RN.
But let's be real, being stunned and in love with Gaga and her lewks is nothing new. She's been at this ish for years now!
It's gotten to the point where seeing momma monster in normal clothes feels weird and a li'l uncomfy!
So when our girl showed up to the Elle magazine event red carpet Monday night, her fans were quite surprised with her outfit choice.
This interesting Marc Jacobs slouchy, hobo-chic suit served a whole new type of Gaga realness.
People immediately took to social media to discuss this very important fashion moment.
Obvs, some little monsters were on board with Gaga immediately and fully supported the zoot suit vibes.
No tea, no shade, but where's the lie, tho?
How L. Gaga can even outdo her previously showcased red carpet couture moments is beyond me, but that's just what a true queen does.
Okay, honestly, this is just fan fiction that I wish would come true.
If you've seen A Star is Born (as previously instructed), then you'll know EXACTLY what I'm talking about.
I mean, we all have experienced our clothes not fitting right, we love achieving our #FitnessGoals, but something is telling me that was not Gaga's intention with this suit.
All zoot suit conspiracy was cleared up, however, once Gaga stepped on stage accept her award, presented by fellow powerhouse Jennifer Lopez.
The emotional embrace shared by these women is enough to make anyone teary-eyed.
"We are not members of a giant beauty pageant meant to be pit against one another for the pleasure of the public."
"Those men hid because they were afraid of loosing their power. And because they hid, I began to hide."
"This was an oversized men’s suit made for a woman. Not a gown. And then I began to cry."
"In this suit, I felt like me today. In this suit, I felt the truth of who I am well up in my gut."
Gaga has never turned away from difficult subject matter, especially when appearing for a lengthy interview on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert earlier this month.
Joanne is a STAN when it comes to her beliefs.
So needless to say, fans weren't surprised when Gaga gave them a speech that inspired and moved them.
They were grateful such important issues were being addressed by Gaga on such a huge platform.
Reactions online were filled with support and love for Gaga and her incredibly moving speech.
It's clear her speech spoke not just to her fans, but to sexual assault survivors everywhere.
So, thank you, Lady Gaga, for always being a boss queen who is never afraid to speak her mind and who wears her heart on her sleeve when it matters most.
I hope she can continue to inspire us all to do the same. | 2019-04-22T03:02:35 | https://diply.com/10763/lady-gaga-silenced-the-haters-who-were-dissing-her-outfit |

A total of 34 needy kids will get new bicycles and helmets courtesy of the annual Bikes for Kids drive organized by the Capitol Police.
Cpl. Randal Smith said seven of the bikes will go to the Eagle Valley Children’s Home, primarily to siblings of the patients there. He said the remaining bikes were turned over to the Salvation Army, which will distribute them.
Smith said he wanted to thank Wal-Mart for giving them a discount on the bikes. He said special thanks go to “Rich the bike builder” at the Douglas County Wal-Mart, who put them all together, and his supervisor Angie.
In addition, Trooper Cindy Campbell of the Nevada State Law Enforcement Officers Association presented Donna Clark of the children’s home and Salvation Army Captain Erica Helton each with $500 checks from the association’s members, which include the Nevada Highway Patrol.
Smith said those weren’t the only gifts they handed out Wednesday. He said also donated by groups of state workers were numerous teddy bears and other stuffed animals, blankets, hand crocheted hats, scarves and gloves.
This is the sixth year the Capitol Police have bought bikes and helmets for the needy. Smith said this is the largest number of bikes they have had yet.
It’s the first year the officer’s association has participated, but he said he hopes they join in next year again. | 2019-04-21T09:17:33 | https://www.nevadaappeal.com/news/local/capitol-police-give-kids-bikes-for-christmas/ |
Well that’s all for today! What was your favorite photo? Let me know your feedback in the comments below! If you would like to see more of my equine photography in the future, check out the gallery page on my blog. Until next time… don’t forget to hug your horse!
Do you like to take pictures of your horses?
Great photos. I am so looking forward to more! Maybe a Winter Photo look book?
Beautiful picture, Keeley! The second one looks so professional!
And I see you got all of them with their ears forward, congrats!
Aw, thanks so much Lia! I so appreciate your comment 🙂 Ha-ha it definitely was a hard task to get their ears forward! But, what really made their ears go forward was the clicking sound on my camera. Whenever I pressed the button, it made a click and instantly their ears went forward ha-ha.
Haha I should probably take more photos of my guys… But with a crappy camera and one not particularly photogenic horse (at least outside of shows lol) I’ve got some very bad photos of my guys lol.
Ha-ha totally understand! My horse isn’t very photogenic either. It takes a lot of work to get her ears forward 🙂 Thank you so much! I am glad you liked the photos.
AW, thanks girl! I can’t wait to see your photos too 😀 Thanks for commenting! | 2019-04-19T23:04:41 | https://www.horsechatwithkeeley.com/fall-equine-photography-lookbook/ |

Mohammed was arraigned before Magistrate G. O. Anifowose on a charge of stealing.
It was gathered that the accused was panting in the dock and when his plea was to be taken, he defecated and urinated uncontrollably right in the courtroom amid tears.
Following the desecration of the temple of justice by the accused, the court was forced to adjourn briefly.
The accused was immediately taken to the toilet to clean up.
Barely 20 minutes after, the court relocated to another room where his plea was finally taken.
The accused, who said he resides under the bridge at Iyana-Ipaja, a suburb of Lagos, summoned courage and entered a ‘not guilty’ plea.
The magistrate granted the accused a bail of N60,000 with two sureties in like sum.
Earlier, the prosecutor, Insp. Racheal Williams told the court that the offence was committed on 13 January, at Aina George Junction, Ilupeju, Lagos.

She said on their way, the accused offered to ride the motorcycle while the complainant took the passenger’s seat.

“When they were about getting to a police check point, the accused told the complainant that the police will arrest him for carrying a passenger and asked him come down.
“The accused told the complainant to meet him after the checkpoint.
“Shortly after passing the checkpoint, the accused sped off,” she said.
Williams further said the accused was apprehended with the help of the police.

Credit cards have become a universal commodity in many parts of the world. In fact, there are a growing number of purchases that cannot be made without a credit card, like some cash-less restaurants. But with the proliferation of so many different types of cards and points and rewards, is it actually good to have a credit card?
In short, my argument is yes, it is helpful to have and to use a credit card, but on the condition that the credit balance does not exceed your cash balance.
Credit cards give individuals a line of credit. For example, Average Joe decides to apply for a credit card. Company XYZ approves his application, and issues him a credit card with an $8,000 limit. This is his line of credit, and it means that he can spend up to $8,000 using Company XYZ's money for "free", provided that he pays back the balance within ~one month. The credit limits depend on the individual's credit history, income, and other factors, so it will vary from person to person. Poor college student Johnny will probably have a limit of $2,000, whereas Jeff Bezos would have a "black card" with no limit.
After opening my credit cards, I've consistently paid back these small "debts", and thereby solidified a great credit score. If you're looking to get a mortgage or other loan (or even rent an apartment), you'll probably need to provide your credit report. If you have no credit history (ie no proof that you've taken on debt and paid it off consistently), then it can be difficult to have confidence in loaning you money. A better credit score will also land you better terms (lower interest rates) on these loans.
Simply put - a credit card balance that doesn't get fully paid each month will compound each month - what starts as a small pile quickly becomes a mountain of debt.
The first two are simply a part of owning a credit card. They are usually not that expensive, and the transaction fees are typically paid by the merchant, not the customer. For example, if Sally decides to pay for her Starbucks coffee with her credit card, the transaction fees will be paid by Starbucks. However, if Sally is buying dinner at a small mom & pop restaurant, the owners may have a notice that reads, "Extra $0.50 charge for credit card unless order > $15".
However, the second two can really snowball into unmanageable fees. Different credit cards have different language surrounding the fees they charge on unpaid balances, but it's almost always difficult to parse through what you'll actually be paying. Don't let it get to this point to begin with. With APR of 20% or higher, a compounding credit card balance can absolutely demolish your ability to save. Often times, the enticing sign-up bonus is really to get that small pile of debt started. Some cards require upwards of $4000 to be spent in the first three months in order to receive the sign-up bonus. After that, if you're unable to pay it back in time, the credit card company will quickly recoup their losses from your ever-growing and compounding credit card balance. I personally had a net benefit of ~$1,500 from reaching my sign-up bonus conditions, but I did not intentionally push up my credit card spend to reach it. At the time, I also had all of the cash on-hand needed to fully pay down the credit card balance immediately.
Pre-condition: Are you a compulsive shopper? Are you prone to making unwise purchases in the spur of the moment? Do you already have significant credit card debt?
- If yes, do not sign up for a credit card. If you already have a credit card, pay off all of your balance, hide your card somewhere safe (and inconvenient to get to), unlink your card from all of your online accounts (Amazon especially), and pay for everything by debit card or cash. Keep your credit card 'active' if there are necessary monthly expenses, like phone bill, utilities, etc. Keep those on the credit card and automate your payments.
I usually pay off my credit card balance every two weeks so that the balance always remains low. Never put yourself in a position where you cannot pay off the balance, even for a few days.
This is a particularly dangerous trap to fall into, especially in the beginning. I paid off the $4,000 I needed to earn the sign-up bonus because I already had some major upcoming expenses (travel, hotels). I would have had to pay those expenses in cash anyway, so I charged everything onto the new card and paid it off immediately.
I am much less likely to make an online purchase if I have to fill in all of my credit card information manually. Simply disconnecting our information from Google, Amazon, etc. is not only beneficial from a security standpoint, but also makes it harder to make purchases. The harder it is to make the purchase, the more likely it is that we won't follow through with the purchase to the finish. If you're going to the mall, put the credit card in a place that's inconvenient to reach in your purse or bag, or maybe don't carry it at all. Simply bring the cash needed to make the purchase that was intended.
There will always come a time when it becomes tempting to spend on a large-ticket item because it's within your credit limit. Or perhaps there are a bunch of smaller items that you'd like, but do not need. All of these things can start adding up. Remain vigilant, or else the credit card may end up owning you. | 2019-04-26T04:52:35 | https://fivetalentscapital.com/archive/should-i-use-credit-card |
April was Distracted Driving Awareness Month and an excellent time to review workplace transportation policies. Each year, more than 35,000 people are killed on America's roads and traffic collisions are the number one cause of workplace deaths.
In a recent guest post on DOL's blog, National Safety Council President and CEO Deborah Hersman explains the dangers associated with distracted driving and describes available tools, including a free cell phone policy kit, to help employers protect workers from these risks.
OSHA reminds employers that they have a responsibility to protect their workers by prohibiting texting while driving. It is a violation of the OSH Act for employers to require workers to text while driving, create incentives that encourage or condone it, or structure work so that texting while driving is a practical necessity for workers to carry out their job.

used for luck and protection.
The Painting Project has finally left the office i share with nagasiva and is now dominating the SHOP! We have achieved one and a half red, green, and yellow walls, but the yellow is just an undercoat for the gilding, and we have not yet begun to gild. The contents of some shelves and cupboards have been displaced to a large tent. Our customers patiently wait as employees run down to the tent to fetch items temporarily out of the shop.
at the LUCKY MOJO FORUM!
The other day it occurred to me that even though The Lucky Mojo Forum has been online since January 2009, not a day passes but that i don't talk to someone who has never heard of it, never used it, or doesn't know how to find it -- this despite the fact that a full 20% of our site's web traffic currently comes through The Lucky Mojo Forum, that there are more than 5,500 registered members, and that more than 71,500 posts have been made there!
If you are not currently familiar with -- and posting to -- The Lucky Mojo Forum, you ought to check it out. It is an amazing community resource, where professional conjure doctors, part-time root workers, home practitioners, and total newbies can all get together and learn how to use spiritual supplies, perform authentic conjure spells, and, best of all, meet and make friends with like-minded folks from all around the world.
This past month, The Lucky Mojo Forum has been undergoing some long-awaited reorganizational changes in layout, and so i am going to take the opportunity to introduce you all to the various parts and portions of the board.
The Lucky Mojo Forum is divided into four major areas.
General: This is where news and announcements are posted, questions about the shop's shipping policies get answered, and you can find the answers to such arcane queries as "where did my post disappear to?" Although "General" is the most boring section of the board, because it is not about conjure or rootwork, it is where you can go to get technical help. 'Nuff said.
How To Use Lucky Mojo Spiritual Supplies in Hoodoo, Rootwork, and Conjure: This portion of the forum is categorized by PRODUCT TYPE. If you want to know how to use Conjure Oils, you go to the "Anointing and Dressing Oils" section. If you want to know about how to perform a ritual of spiritual cleansing, you go to the "Baths and Washes" section. Inside those sections there are threads about almost every product we carry, plus more general threads about types of spells. The Honey Jar thread alone has more than 2,300 posts -- enough to write a long book on the use of honey jars in hoodoo!
Ask Us For Help With Hoodoo, Conjure, and Rootwork: Here we have a NEW area of the Forum, where people ask questions about how to use hoodoo to remediate their own personal conditions and situations. This is the liveliest area of the Forum, with two dozen sections, ranging from "Help with Love, Romance, Marriage, and Reconciliation," through "Help with Liars, Thieves, Frauds, and Swindlers" and more! There are several sections dealing with money, jobs, and gambling luck, a section for curses, and even a section on how to do spellwork for pets.
Hoodoo, Rootwork, and Conjure Community: This is the place to introduce yourself to other Forum members, to ask about readings, to sign up to be a guest on the Lucky Mojo Hoodoo Rootwork Hour radio show, to learn about my Hoodoo Rootwork Correspondence Course, and to post testimonials about your favourite Lucky Mojo products and your favourite AIRR readers and rootworkers.
With an average of more than 70 posts per day, there is no way that one person could answer all of the questions that are posted, and so we rely on our very own community of friends to help out. The Moderators of The Lucky Mojo Forum are all graduates of my Hoodoo Rootwork Correspondence Course. Many of the Mods are also members of AIRR. And of course, because their hours and hours of help are highly appreciated, the Mods are enrolled in a rewards program all their own: every month they earn store credits for their work at the Forum site. When you see one of the names in GREEN, you know that your question was answered by an expert.
So... how do you join up? It's EASY! You just go to The Lucky Mojo Forum web site and register. It's FREE, it can be pseudonymous (if you want it that way), and best of all, it is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week -- "Your Conjure Consultation in a Box" -- LOL!
� Nagasiva and Elvyra have been busily havesting herbs for the shop. This week's crop includes magical batches of Comfrey Leaf, Yellow Dock, Yarrow, Feverfew, Rosemary, Oregano, and Magnolia Leaf.
� This month we welcome a new employee: Leslie Lowell. She is working with Robin in the shop, pulling orders, packing herbs, and generally bringing a fine level of customer service to the job.
� Oran Davis has been tweaking the The Crystal Silence League Online Prayer Requests Page for greater functionality. Thanks, as always, Oran!
� Our thanks also go out to Chris and Roger for their fine painting and decorative touches in the shop, and to Robin Petersen for keeping all systems "go" while Paint Chaos unfolds around her.
� Valentina Burton and David Alexandre, "The Fortune Tellers of Dallas" dropped by to visit the shop while in the Bay Area. Valentina is one of our favourite people, a strong reader and rootworker and if you are not familiar with her, be sure to check out her page at the Association of Independent Readers and Rootworkers.
� Cool new item in the shop: Really unusual Mongolian amulet-necklace-thingies featuring a cast brass Padmasambhava statuette wrapped in a leather "cloak" and flanked by two leather-wrapped Mongolian Buddhist protection packets. We've never seen 'em before, and the Chinese man who sold them to us said he got them from some "Mongolian traders who came over the border into China," so it is likely that we won't be seeing them again, after the stock in hand is gone. Or ... who knows? Maybe they will suddenly become really popular and you'll be seeing them in every mall in America! Not.
The Lucky Mojo Hoodoo Rootwork Hour, hosted by Dr. Christos Kioni of drkioni.com and catherine yronwode of luckymojo.com, is a live call-in show, where we read your Tarot cards and prescribe down-home, old-school conjure and rootwork remedies!
To get a FREE reading and rootwork advice, you must pre-register at either JujuCentral or at the Lucky Mojo Forum, then call in by telephone during that week's LIVE broadcast and press '1' to request to be on the air.

Rockstar Games is one of the best video games developers in the world. It is, of course, most famous for the Grand Theft Auto series, which has evolved over its lifetime from the Top-down 2D action of the original to the Open-world epic which is GTA V. However, Rockstar Games is more than just Grand Theft Auto, and its back catalog of titles deserves a closer look. What follows, is a list of the best titles Rockstar Games has released so far.

2013 did not start on a positive note for the global server industry. According to a pair of analyst reports released this week, server shipments and revenues both declined in the first quarter of 2013.
IDC reported global first quarter 2013 server revenue to be $10.9 billion, which is a 7.7 percent year-over-year decline. Gartner reported the revenue decline to be only 5.0 percent, coming in at $11.8 billion.
In terms of server shipments, IDC reported that 1.9 million units were shipped in 1Q13, which is a 3.1 percent year-over-year decline. In contrast, Gartner reported only a 0.7 percent decline in server shipments, with 2.3 million units.
"The first quarter of 2013 was certainly not a strong period for the server market on a global level," said Jeffrey Hewitt, research vice president at Gartner, in a statement.
Matt Eastwood, Group Vice President and General Manager, Enterprise Platforms at IDC, noted that ongoing consolidation and macroeconomic challenges are impacting the global server market.
"It is clear that challenging market conditions are increasing the competitive dynamics for server market share globally, particularly since compute represents a critical element of larger IT transformations that continue to reshape broader enterprise IT market opportunities," Eastwood said in a statement.
While overall global server revenues were down, Linux server revenues were up.
According to IDC, Linux server revenue grew by 3.4 percent year over year and now represents 23.1 percent of the total market.
In contrast, Microsoft Windows server hardware revenue declined by 4.2 percent, though Windows does still represent 52.2 percent of overall quarterly factory revenue.
Unix servers continued their steep decline, with a 35.9 percent drop in year over year revenues. Unix-based serves now represent 12.6 percent of quarterly server revenue.
This was the seventh consecutive quarter of revenue decline in the Unix server market, and all major Unix server vendors experienced a year-over-year revenue decline in the quarter when compared with the first quarter of 2012.
The title of top server vendor in the world depends on how the question is asked and who is answering the question.
According to Gartner, IBM is the top server vendor in the world by revenue. Gartner pegs IBM's 1Q13 server revenue at $3.02 billion and HP's $2.96 billion. In terms of server shipments, HP is the top server vendor, with 580,563 units shipped, and Dell comes in second with 516,355 units shipped.
IDC has a different view on the matter.
According to IDC, HP is the top server vendor in the world, with revenue coming in at $2.95 billion against IBM's $2.79 billion.
Of particular note in the IDC report is the three-way statistical tie for fourth place in server systems revenues. HP, IBM and Dell hold down the first three spots respectively. For fourth place, Fujitsu, Oracle and Cisco are all in a dead heat.
Cisco is the fastest-growing server vendor, though, with first quarter 2013 revenue growth of 34.9 percent, according to IDC. | 2019-04-22T04:01:22 | https://www.serverwatch.com/server-news/server-market-continues-to-decline-in-2013.html |

This blog addresses frequently asked questions about all aspects of fishing. All the Posts on this Blog are meant to steer fishermen and fisherwomen towards the correct lures and setup’s to use. Plus give helpful info on “How to fish certain areas” and the newest strategies on Saltwater Fishing.
If you are an avid Cape Cod Canal Fisherman then you know about the Tsunami Heavy Shad. There are 2 different sizes to this amazing soft plastic lure. You can either use the 5” 3 ounce or the 6” 4 ½ ounce shad. There are 4 colors, but the most effective colors out of the 4 are the Blue Back, Pearl, and Bunker patterns. There are many applications for correctly using the Heavy Shad, but the majority of people love jigging the shad on the bottom.
Especially with all the different braided lines on the market today, you will be able to feel every single bounce or piece of seaweed on you setup, while you are jigging. The Blue Back color is the best color for fishing in the Spring time because of all the River Herring and Mackerel that are migrating. The Bunker color is the reason for a lot of giant Striped Bass being caught in the Fall because of all the Pogies/Menhaden (whatever you wish to call them) that are running thru the Canal.
When casting the shad in the Cape Cod Canal make sure to cast at your 11 o’clock or your 1 o’clock, the direction of the cast depends on the direction of the current (East or West). I usually use this soft plastic when the current is at full strength because it will hit the bottom and stay close to the bottom, but also it will make it possible to swim the bait in mid-water. Don’t’ be surprised to have a fish hit it close to the rock bank during retrieval. This shad is the most preferred plastic because of the paddle tail. This paddle tail never stops vibrating and causing a commotion in the water.
This lure is an essential weapon for the Cape Cod Canal. If you don’t have it, then look at it in link below and buy some.
The Bullet Head Jig is a universal lure that fits perfectly on any Soft Plastic lure. The best Soft Plastics in my opinion are the 6”, 7’ and 9” Slug-Go’s. This Soft plastic lure is made by Lunker City, which is made in the USA. There are many others like Al Gag’s and Ron-Z 10” tails; these lures have a great taper to the end of the tail. All of these plastic lures fit perfectly fit on the bullet head Jig.
There are many different sizes to these jig heads. The best weight for the Cape Cod Canal is the 2-6 ounce weights. To effectively apply the soft plastic to the smooth surface of the jig head. You can use any sort of Super glue to keep the plastic from sliding down the shaft of the hook. The Bullet head Jigs we sell at our store are made by Heads and Tails. This company is based out of New York and they are made out of high quality lead that doesn’t really dent our crack.
You can ask anybody around the Canal. The Most effective fishing technique is Jigging. Using Buck Tail Jigs, Soft plastic tails and heavy plastic shads are the best lures to have in your jigging arsenal.
Check out the link underneath to see the specifications.
The Tony Maja Bunker Spoons have proven themselves over and over again to be the best and brightest trolling spoons around. The Maja’s come in many different colors and weights, so you can effectively use them in Shallow or Deep water. The 4 colors are White, Chartreuse, Green and Multi Color. These colors hit every part of the spectrum and match up to tons of baitfish. After my father and I at Canal Bait and Tackle placed the Maja Bunker Spoons on our wall we had to try them out, especially during the spring when the mackerel migrate up to New England.
I used the Maja’s first. My friend and I went out on May 20th just to the outside of the East End of the Cape Cod Canal. From May 20th to around June 7th. The 40 pound plus Striped Bass come thru the Canal. The setups we used were 7’ Bunker Spoon Rods that we custom made at our store, and the reels were 113H2 with 50lb Dacron backing line and 100yds of Stainless Steel Wire. The leader is just 30’ of 80lb mono leader with a 200lb Spro Ball Bearing Swivel. That is my favorite setup to use.
At first I was a little skeptical of the design because the spoons are kind of flat, so I thought the action would be limited. You usually want a wide 6-8ft span for the Spoon to travel left to right. This action allows the lure to cover a lot more water and attracts bigger fish.
As I started to let out line at the beginning of the troll, the Bunker Spoon proved me wrong. It moved perfectly and within 10 minutes we had the first Bass on the line. We only went out 2 miles at the end of the Canal heading NNE towards the CC Buoy and within 3 hours of fishing we caught 10 Bass. The biggest one was 36lbs.
So inevitably I use Maja Bunker Spoon’s all the time. If you haven’t seen the lure yet check out the bottom link to look at the Specifications.
Pyramid Sinker vs. Bank Sinker?
The 2 most popular sinkers to use for onshore fishing are the bank sinker or the pyramid sinker. A lot of people ask "What is the best sinker or weight to use for onshore fishing?" The answer is both.
The Bank Sinker is special because the tear drop shape makes it perfect for long distance casting and great for not being caught on a rocky bottom. But the down side to using the Bank Sinker is that it usually doesn’t sit in place in a strong current. These sinkers have a tendency to roll on the bottom.
The Pyramid Sinker is mostly used for weighting a rig for a sandy bottom. This weight cast just as good as a Bank Sinker, but if the area you are fishing has a rocky bottom, you will lose your weight and rig every time. The sharp points to the Pyramid Sinker will easily grab on to a rock and not let go. But, when used for beach fishing this sinker stick and embeds perfectly into the sand.
These two weights are used for different applications for fishing. That is the reason why the Bank and Pyramid sinkers are the most popular.
Spinning Setup for bluefin Tuna!!
Hi this is Jeff and Bruce from Canal Bait and Tackle.
Alot of people ask us "What is the best spinning rod and reel combination to catch Bluefin Tuna?" Our answer is for the rod use a Shimano Terez 7' rod and a Shimano Stella 20000 reel. This setup balances out really nice and is deadly effective for controlling a Small School Bluefin Tuna. I have attached a video of Riptide Charters Terry Nugent using one of these setups and catching nice bluefin's.
Listen to the drag system and think of the power this tuna has. Watching this video gets me pumped for to go out for tuna. Alot of money for the setup, but if you want quality and a guarentee to land a Bluefin then you need to check this setup out!

Blue, our old Aussie, joined us as an 8-week-old pup in September of 1997. Born on a Kansas cattle farm, he was a cute, blue merle out of full-blooded working Australian Shepherd parents. He had vivid blue eyes, which unfortunately faded to a pale, spooky blue-gray. For nearly 13 years, he was a close companion and a reliable helpmate. He died a week ago, apparently while out on patrol or perhaps in search of one the many big bones he had stashed around the place.
I’ve been kind of sad since.
Even though he was just a silly old nearsighted dog who liked to play in the pond.
For years he was my constant daytime companion. That started with the broken leg. At age three months, he and my then 10-year-old daughter tripped one another while running downhill. Both went rolling. The child was fine, and the pup came up yipping and limping. The vet put the leg in a cast and told me to keep him still and quiet, and keep that cast dry.
Seriously? Have you ever tried to keep a 3-month-old Aussie still?
I made a waterproof cover for the cast with a velcro closure and an elastic sling to hold it on. I took that pup everywhere with me for the duration — errands, the feed store, even the library although he waited outside under a tree so as not to break library rules requiring patrons to wear a shirt and shoes. With constant supervision, I managed to follow the vet’s recommendation. By the time the cast came off, Blue was used to being with me, and I was used to his company.
He sired a litter of pups when he was young, before his nearsightedness became apparent. None of the pups inherited that condition, but we had him fixed anyway, just in case there was a genetic component to the flaw. Despite his poor eyesight, he usually found ways to make himself useful. As we added a second dog, then a third, he switched from a leadership role to that of cleanup guy. He’d let the other dogs do the real herding much of the time and wait by the gate to tease and trick the stubborn ones into chasing him to wherever it was I wanted them all to go. He also showed great valor in the face of wandering skunks and twice guarded our retreat when we stumbled upon cranky ones, taking a shot for the team each time. The subsequent baths were tolerated with less dignity, but that may have been due to the soapy horns I kept making in his fur.
He wasn’t the perfect companion. In fact, he could be a real idiot. He barked at every doorbell that rang on television and had to be convinced there were no real visitors to greet. He went wild over fireworks, real or televised. I confess that in some of my less mature moments, I’d push ‘replay’ just to watch him repeat his silly antics.
In recent years, his eyesight grew worse. He started having trouble finding his bones sometimes. He’d blunder through the chicken flock when we were moving the birds and would only realize his error when the birds scattered. We had to teach him to work differently, and we had to remember to tell him where to stand or guard or do whatever job we dreamed up for him so he could still be useful.
The daughter who’d tripped with him all those years ago started taking time most days to help him find and move his bones. Got-Your-Bone was the game of the day, and he relished it. The other dogs, recognizing his increasing frailty, played along gently.
Time passed. The game continued. Sometimes one of the other dogs would move a bone, just for fun, then hang around a while to watch him search for it. Dogs do have a sense of humor, it seems.
There are things I won’t miss. The old dog farts. The old dog breath. Those strange dry dog turds he occasionally passed with gas. To his credit he did manage to look embarrassed about them.
Blue was laid to rest in the back forty near the final resting place of the old ram and the last of our old goats, who’d been with us nearly as long as Blue.
We’ll miss him. He was a good dog.
I remember when you brought him home. So hard to lose a well loved companion.
That’s dog’s biggest flaw – they don’t live long enough.
I hate reading posts like this, but I know about the love for a good dog!
Beautifully written Laura. Thanks for sharing Blue with us all this one last time.
My heart goes out to you. We’re losing Maggie.
Robin – Maggie’s irreplaceable, the perfect example of a farmcollie. She’ll be missed even by those of us who only had the chance to know her from your photos and stories. Your first year stories about her are the reason we got Sadie . . . then Bebe, Dinah, and of course Freckles.
Aww. I’m so sorry to hear you lost your dog. It leaves a big hole in your days to lose a best friend. | 2019-04-19T02:59:51 | http://www.thelandofmoo.com/2010/06/21/bye-bye-blue/ |
Harston lies some 3 km south of Cambridge in the valley of the river Rhee, by which it is bounded on the west. From north to south it extends for nearly 2 km, between the Rhee and the Hoffer brook on the south-west. It is bounded the parishes of Hauxton, Little Shelford, Newton, Foxton, Barrington and Haslingfield.
The soil lies on gault clay near the Rhee and chalk on the south-east; the bedrock is overlaid with alluvium beside the river and elsewhere with valley gravels. The land is mostly flat, rising very gently from under 15 metres by the river to over 20 metres in the south-east. It slopes sharply up to over 30 metres at St. Maggot’s Mount in the east, and over 45 metres at Rowley’s Hill to the south-east. The flat land by the river and drier chalk lands made it a good location for settlement, as did the bridging point across the river.
In earlier times, the main routeways ran east-west linking the important prehistoric Mare Way to the west with villages to the east. The crossing of the Rhee would have been in the vicinity of Harston mill and futher north at Burnt Mill bridge. Although no longer the main routeway, this east-west pattern continues today along the line of Haslingfield Road, Church Street and Station Road (formerly Baggot Road and before 1700, The Ridgeway). London Road which runs from the north of the village to Newton was part of the Cambridge to London coaching route in the 18th century. The village is now dominated by the north-south A10 Cambridge to Royston road. This was called The Portway from the 13-15th century and was part of the Dunsbridge turnpike road between 1793 and 1872.
Originally thought to have started as an Anglo-Saxon settlement, recent archaeological studies have provided a much earlier date going back to at least Bronze Age. A study by Cambridgeshire Council Archaeology Unit in 1993 at Manor Farm at the southern end of the village discovered Bronze Age ditches, cremations & artefacts.
Elsewhere there was a limited Roman presence as shown by some of the finds at Manor Farm, by spot finds throughout the village and by the discovery of 3rd century pottery kilns during construction work for the M11. | 2019-04-23T02:09:28 | https://www.harstonhistory.org.uk/content/overview/harston-overview |

I’m not alone. Throughout Christian history the place and authority of the Book of Revelation has been disputed. To this day some Eastern Churches do not include it in the canon of New Testament books. It is not read in the Divine Liturgy of the Eastern Churches, although it is read in Catholic and Protestant liturgies. Martin Luther, at the time of the Reformation called it neither apostolic nor prophetic, John Calvin wrote commentaries on every book of the New Testament – except Revelation.
It was included in the New Testament canon because it was believed to be apostolic in authorship and in its teaching. The book is attributed to John the apostle in the opening verses of the book. It’s focus on the Second Coming of Christ is certainly in keeping with recorded teaching of Jesus and with the writings of Paul and the other authors of the New Testament letters.
I am inconsistent in my attitude to the book. There are bits of it I love. The Church of England in its Daily Prayer from Common Worship includes no fewer than seven canticles taken from the Book of Revelation in its rich treasure of canticles for use in worship – and I love to say them at Evening Prayer. There are are some wonderful passages from the book – the letters to the Churches (Rev. 2-3), the vision of heaven (Rev. 4), the new Jerusalem (Rev. 21). But most of it I find dense and inaccessible. Which is something of a shame because I’m sure that, probably more than any other book in the New Testament, Revelation rewards being read as a whole (but I easily lose track and my mind wanders).
There are the major themes in the book which are important and central to Christian teaching. Revelation reminds us that suffering is a part of the Christian life and that there is a reward awaiting those who are faithful and resolute. It reminds us that God is in control of our destiny and will ultimately be victorious. It reminds us that the kingdom of heaven and the values of this world are in conflict and are fundamentally incompatible. But it is also negative about this world in a way that Jesus was not; it encourages, at least implicitly to distance ourselves form this world in way that Jesus never a did and that Paul wished to do but would not (Phil. 1.15-24) The book seems obsessed with sacrifice – Jesus’s and that of suffering Christians – and appears to take little account of the joy of the resurrection life.
I suspect that the book was relevant to the lives of the Christians for which it was written, persecuted and martyred; and it is easy to look at our world and see how for many Christians today the situation in which they find themselves is similar; and it’s not difficult to believe that, even in the West, our comfortable Christian lives might become much more difficult in the not too distant future. If that happens the Book of Revelation might be just what we need.
The Book of Revelation is fraught with difficulties of understanding, relevance, interpretation and accessibility. But it’s there, at the end of the Bible and I’ll guess I’ll have to just keep on reading it and finding in it whatever I can. Who knows, one day it might all fall into place and God will speak to me through its words. I’ll just have to wait and see. | 2019-04-26T08:45:40 | https://myexultemus.blog/2016/11/24/sometimes-reading-the-bible-is-hard/ |
Do you know how to adequately protect your smile during your teen years from oral accidents and injuries that can arise? During your teen years, you often partake in activities and events that can not only damage your teeth and gums but cause other issues to arise with your physical health. Not only should you be aware of various unhealthy activities such as drugs or smoking that may be linked to peer pressure influences but be aware of activities in your life that can put your smile at risk of oral accidents and injuries.
One of the most common risks associated with your teen years is from sports. By routinely playing sports and putting your smile at risk, you are running the risk of damaging your teeth and gums due to severe oral accidents and injuries that can occur.

Are you familiar with dental bridges? Although dentures are one of the most commonly known forms of tooth replacements, dental bridges are alternatives that are proven to be extremely effective. Unlike removable dentures, dental bridges, also known as fixed partial dentures, are permanently attached to your mouth.
The permanence of dental bridges is what gives them their durability. Because dental bridges are anchored to nearby teeth, they will hold solid to ensure other teeth will not move or slip around. This is also extremely important for bite stability as it can redistribute bite forces correctly amongst your teeth. Dental bonds can easily last up to a decade and provide a durable smile that has zero food restrictions.
Dental bridges are known for restoring the look of your smile and any issues associated with bite stability, space maintenance or impaired chewing, eating or speaking habits. With a dental bridge, not only will it improve the look of your smile, but its function as well.
Dental crowns are commonly used to “cap” or cover either a tooth or an implant that has been damaged. The tooth can be the cause of great discomfort until a crown is cemented on—which may strengthen the damaged tooth, improve your overall appearance, and improve the alignment in the mouth. Crowns are meant to be permanent and should only be removed by a dentist.
To make a crown, an impression is made. However, first, the dentist has to reduce the size of the tooth so the crown will fit properly.
-Ceramic: These are typically used on the front teeth because they can blend in well with your natural coloring. They are made from a porcelain-based material.
-Porcelain-fused to metal: This has a stronger bond than regular porcelain because it is connected to the metal structure, making it more durable.
-Gold alloys: This crown is composed of a mix of gold, copper and other metals. It has a strong bond, won’t fracture and does not wear away at the tooth.
-Base metal alloys: Made from non-noble metals, this crown is very corrosion resistant. It is a very strong crown and requires the least amount of healthy tooth.
-Gold and metal alloys have the best durability.
-Porcelain crowns may be less strong and can be more susceptible to pressure (like teeth grinding).
-Porcelain-based crowns may also irritate the other teeth if the surface becomes rough.
-Crowns can last a lifetime if properly maintained!
For more information regarding crowns or to schedule an appointment, please call our dentists, Dr. Jamil Sowan and Dr. Hisham Merdad, at (703) 844-0404. We, at Pop Smiles Dentistry, look forward to helping you in our Manassas, Virginia, office.
The American Dental Association notes that daily oral hygiene regimen is founded on brushing your teeth each morning and night, as well as thoroughly flossing at least once per day. When brushing your teeth, the ADA recommends that you use a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoridated toothpaste.
If you find that you’re having trouble cleaning a specific area of your smile, you might want to try using an interdental brush. This type of toothbrush is essentially a miniature toothbrush with an angled and tapered brush head that is designed to help you clean hard-to-reach places around the contours of your teeth.
Individuals who have traditional braces might also find that an interdental brush is helpful for cleaning around orthodontic hardware, as well as removing food particles from spacers and bands. Interdental toothbrushes are often sold in small packs in the oral hygiene aisle of most stores.
Once you have completed brushing and flossing your teeth, you might also want to vigorously rinse your mouth with antiseptic mouthwash. This can help remove loosened material while also reducing the overall population of bacteria in your mouth. Just make sure that it has earned the ADA’s Seal of Acceptance.
If you live in the Manassas, Virginia, area, and if you have an oral health concern, you should call (703) 844-0404 to schedule a dental checkup our dentist, Dr. Jamil Sowan, and the staff at Pop Smiles Dentistry.
Back in the 1960s, it was decided that fluoride would now be added to communal water supplies in certain areas to reduce instances of tooth decay, and these days about two-thirds of the United States have regular access to fluoridated public water, with most major cities now including fluoride in their water supplies.
However, many patients are wary of drinking fluoridated water since large doses of fluoride in children can result in a condition known as fluorosis, in which mild cases form white streaks on the tooth enamel and severe cases cause brown stains and potential breaks in the tooth enamel. Fluorosis can’t affect adults since their teeth are fully developed, and the CDC also regulates the fluoride in public water to ensure that they are safe for your child if your child receives additional fluoride from other sources such as fluoride toothpastes or treatments. The focus is to offer enough fluoride to fight cavities but not result in fluorosis.
If you would like to speak with our dentist, Dr. [dcotor_name], about the benefits of drinking fluoridated water in Manassas, Virginia, or if you need to schedule an appointment, you are welcome to contact Pop Smiles Dentistry at (703) 844-0404 today.
– Dental fillings are an oral health care restoration designed to eradicate cavities and prevent further tooth decay from occurring to a specified area on a tooth.
– Dental veneers are very effective tooth restorations crafted to cover up the fronts of teeth with a thin, yet durable shell that is customizable for the look your smile requires.
– Tooth whitening treatments are highly effective whitening systems designed to remove deep stains and discolorations and greatly improve the color and shine of your teeth.
– Dental crowns are very durable tooth restoration treatments built to cap or conceal a tooth on all sides down to the gum line for a customizable look and added protection.
If you want to experience the joys of tooth restoration at Pop Smiles Dentistry, simply call Dr. Jamil Sowan and our team at (703) 844-0404 to schedule an appointment at our dentist office in Manassas, Virginia.
The dental bridge installed in your mouth by the dental restoration specialists at Pop Smiles Dentistry is intended to replace your missing or severely compromised tooth. While it is made from special dental materials that are immune to tooth decay, the dental work will still require good oral hygiene practices.
Just like your natural teeth, the dental bridge will need to be brushed each morning and night, as well as flossed at least once each day. This will remove plaque, trapped food material, and other bacterial deposits before they can promote gum disease complications.
The slender, tapered brush head or an interdental brush can help remove food particles from hard to reach contours in and around the dental bridge. It can also help clean other minute contours around your natural teeth. They are often sold in small packs in the oral hygiene aisle of most stores.
If you’re struggling to fully floss around the dental bridge and the nearby gumline, you might want to try using a floss threader or a dental water flosser device.
Your regularly scheduled dental checkups with Dr. Jamil Sowan and his team are also very important for maintaining healthy gums and monitoring your dental bridge. This will serve to remove any hardened tartar while monitoring the health of your gums and the integrity of your dental bridge.
If you are in the Manassas, Virginia, area and you are having trouble cleaning around your new dental bridge, you can always call (703) 844-0404 to seek further advice from a member of Pop Smiles Dentistry’s staff. | 2019-04-24T04:46:04 | https://popsmilesdentistry.com/blog/ |

My hands-on skills have been developing over the course of three decades with intermittent clinical experience in the study of structural imbalances such as the degenerative diseases of Arthritis and related structural disorders. I am also experienced with fine tuning performance professionals such as Dancers, Musicians and Athletes so I have a knowledgeable understanding of the Body/Mind continuum when it is at its peak condition as well as in its most degenerative state. I work with different modalities such as Hoshino Therapy which is a refined form of Shiatsu, Myofascial release work, and Therapeutic Touch, which is working with the craniosacral rhythm of the body. My purpose with all clients is to help restore and promote the Vital Force of the body by removing its resistance to alignment.. This equally helps to release the accompanying resistances of the Mind. Living in a Body/Mind/Spirit continuum I do not see the body as a separate entity. It is constantly changing and evolving.
Concerning the above hands-on or manual therapies, Hoshino Therapy (Read article on Tomezo Hoshino) is my principle and dominant therapy as I find it to be most effective for a wide cross section of conditions. It is an expression of Oriental Philosophy utilizing as many as 250 specific points in a given treatment. The points are found along the tendon fiber of the muscles, and coincide with energy pathways called meridians. The experience of receiving a Hoshino Therapy treatment is like increasing the electrical or vitality system of the body. Even after one treatment there is a noticeable to a dramatic improvement from before.
My clinical training with Hoshino Therapy began with the study of Osteo-arthritis in the Florida Clinics but was not limited to working only on Arthritis. Long before the idea of “Sports Therapy” became popular, our clinics were treating sports injuries and basic tonify ing treatments to athletes from the surrounding High Schools, Universities and Professional teams such as the Miami Dolphins. As therapists, we were trained to discern the quality of a muscle from its most vital condition to the beginnings of debility that Professor Hoshino called Arthrosis. Treatments would include accompanying exercises to insure rehabilitation and longevity to a given joint area.
Holistic health has to do with taking the whole person into perspective and providing the necessary education to maintain a level of awareness in Self Care. Self Care is a prerequisite to the strengthening of health and well being. It includes a movement regiment that keeps the body and mind in harmony such as Yoga, Martial Arts, or exercises that are cardiovascular. Walking or jogging in fresh air with deep breathing can do more than most health clubs can offer. Along with movement is a nutritional component to health. This is easier than it sounds when common sense is applied to the “choice of food department”. But then again, yesterday’s common sense has become today’s mysticism, so a little review on the basics wouldn’t hurt. | 2019-04-26T02:03:24 | http://ronlemire.com/our_services.html |

Description: The following m files are written as part of my master's thesis at Masdar Instiute of Science and Technology.
The compressor model is a semi-empirical and designed to be used for a positive displacement compressor. The constants in Tchparm.m for compressor model are obtained from experimental data of a hermetic rotary compressor.
The HX's are modeled using discretization approach. The two-phase heat transfer and pressure drop in the fin-tube condenser and evaporator models are modeled using flow-pattern based models presented by wojtan, thome et. al. Correlations for two-phase heat transfer and pressure drop presented by Hsieh and Lin which are developed for R-410a fluid are used in brazed-plate evaporator model.
for modeling details and program flow charts.
Refprop is required for running the component model files. Optimization and global optimization toolbox is needed for running compressor model or if you want to solve for min. air or water flow rate for a given set of parameters in case of HX models. Tchparm.m file is necessary to run the component model files. The model testing file and data sets are given to ease the user in testing the component models.
5. miscelleneaous models parameters file (Tchparm.m) such as their physical description, fluid type, oil concentration etc.
6. Documentation consisting of component model details, assumptions, parameters considered etc.
The experimental data set consists of the data obtained from the test stand built at Masdar Institute and the test stands used in , . Their data sets are represented by d-deDUMIT DXd-deDt and d-deDUMIT Chillerd-deDt while the data sets obtained from the test stand at MI are represented by d-deDUMI DXd-deDt and d-deDUMI Chillerd-deDt depending on mode of operation.
It is to be noted that a constant heat load was maintained for data sets d-deDUMIT DXd-deDt and d-deDUMIT Chillerd-deDt by using a resistive heater. However, the heat load on the evaporator varied in the case of d-deDUMIT Chillerd-deDt and d-deDUMI DXd-deDt data sets depending on simulated or real outdoor conditions. The steady state was assumed to be attained by observing the temperatures and pressures of the system over a period of 30 minutes after any change in compressor or condenser fan speed in the case of d-deDUMIT Chillerd-deDt data set while a duration of 15-20 minutes was used in the case of d-deDUMI DXd-deDt data set.

Tuberculous lymphadenitis is one of the most common extrapulmonary manifestations of tuberculosis. The most common lymph nodes involved are in the cervical region. Lymphadenitis due to M. tuberculosis generally presents with enlarging neck lymph nodes over weeks or months associated with fever, weight loss and fatigue. Fine needle aspiration (FNA) of affected lymph nodes has been shown to yield a high sensitivity and specificityinthe diagnosis of tuberculous lymphadenitis. Specimens should be examined cytologically, as well as by AFB smear and cultures. The time between the onset of symptoms, clinical presentation and final diagnosis is often too long.We present a case of 60 years old man with tuberculous lymphadenitis, initially suspected of lymphoproliferative disease. | 2019-04-24T08:23:24 | https://journals.viamedica.pl/advances_in_respiratory_medicine/article/view/28086 |

Cooking on a plow disc is fun, smart and entertaining. You will enjoy the effect of the hot plow disc and how it creates delicious meals it makes.I think I have just found a new way to cook immense meals while camping. I live in the Midwest so finding an old tractor plow disk will be no trouble at all. As a matter of fact I saw one at a garage sale just last week.
Essentially a shallow wok, plow disc cookers serve up everything from buttery sauteed seafood and crispy fried fish to sizzling fajita fixings and piping hot tortillas. Making a plow disc cooker is a quick project requiring a plow blade, two handles, and trusty outdoor heat source. | 2019-04-20T03:04:16 | https://www.livinggreenandfrugally.com/how-to-make-a-plow-disk-wok-for-camping/ |

What a huge tree next door. When did the secretive neighbours move out?
They moved out early last summer.
oh The Light how fab. Gorgeous kitties too, as always, BUT is the hedgehog safe?
Haven’t seen the hedgehog at all this season. She may be around, or has moved on, or has succumbed to another fate. We shall wait and see. They have quite large territories so she may just be elsewhere for now. There were no reports of a hedgehog being found or injured during the garden works as far as I know. Plus there is still dense garden in the other house that backs on to ours – the one with the giant yew tree and leylandii.
I was directed to your blog by the Annie O’Dyne, who thought I’d like your cat pics. You are lucky that people in your neighbourhood restore old houses, rather than pull them down and build a dreary block of units on the vacant block, which happens in my area, that is supposed to have an heritage overlay. | 2019-04-21T03:03:01 | https://edwardianhouserenovation.wordpress.com/2017/04/02/spring-in-the-edwardian-house-2/ |
