Greek authorities and health officials are closely monitoring arrivals at the country’s borders amid growing concerns about an increase in imported cases of the coronavirus and are on standby to impose new restrictions if necessary.
Already the government has said that restrictions will be tightened at the Promachonas Greek-Bulgarian border crossing from 6 a.m. on July 14. Anyone on a non-essential trip will be forbidden entry unless they can present a negative Covid-19 test conducted up to 72 hours prior to arrival. That decision was taken on Friday following an emergency meeting of government officials and health experts called by Prime Minister Kyriakis Mitsotakis following mounting concern about an increasing number of tourists from Balkan countries testing positive for Covid-19.
If the trend continues along today’s lines, experts estimate that the number of imported cases of coronavirus will exceed 1,200 by the end of August. According to the National Public Health Organization, the first 10 days of July have already led to 196 cases of coronavirus being linked to foreign arrivals out of a total of 326 cases nationwide, a rate of 60 percent. In the last 10 days of June, 72 of the 294 cases were found to be imported, a much lower rate of 24.5 percent.
Health experts’ greatest concern however is the imported cases which are not traced and can lead to localized spikes in the virus. If unsourced cases – namely infections whose origin cannot be determined – increase to more than 50 a day, this would likely prompt authorities to impose stricter measures such as the obligatory use of protective masks in public areas, Kathimerini understands.
“When we took the decision to open the country to tourism between the end of May and early June, the epidemiological situation in countries like Germany, Italy, Serbia and Israel were very different to today,” Gkikas Magiorkinis, an assistant professor of hygiene and epidemiology at Athens University, told Kathimerini. | <urn:uuid:fd47c877-d4b8-42a4-8fa3-83b938e93d28> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.ekathimerini.com/news/254637/concern-over-unsourced-covid-cases/ | 2023-09-23T18:10:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.950735 | 405 |

We all like a story about rediscovering treasures, right? Well, that’s just what happened recently at EMBL Grenoble!
After a big office clean-up, a medal of honour issued by the French Ministry of Labour, Employment, Vocational Training and Social Dialogue was unearthed after years remaining hidden in a closet. This medal was intended to reward an EMBL Grenoble alumnus, retired engineer André Gabriel, for his 35 years of service.
André started working at EMBL Grenoble in 1973, where he joined the Instrumentation Team and made seminal contributions to the development of X-ray detectors. The medal recognising his service came many years after André’s departure from EMBL Grenoble. For reasons unknown, it ended up in a drawer, only to see the light of day again recently.
Administrative staff at EMBL Grenoble were able to contact André, who was very happy to learn about the discovery. André, who will soon turn 85, even agreed to visit the site again – where he finally received his medal from Head of EMBL Grenoble Stephen Cusack. | <urn:uuid:ebc04cd8-572f-4950-8f21-bd1d448ff9df> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.embl.org/news/alumni/a-hidden-medal/ | 2023-09-23T18:36:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.974527 | 239 |

Throughout history, gemstones have been used for their beauty, rarity, and value. But beyond their aesthetic appeal, many cultures have recognized the metaphysical properties of gemstones, which are believed to have healing powers. These properties have been studied for thousands of years and passed down through generations, with many people still using them today.
So, how did humans start understanding the metaphysical properties of gemstones?
The use of gemstones for their healing powers can be traced back to ancient civilizations. For example, in ancient Egypt, it was believed that certain gemstones had the power to heal and protect the wearer. They would often use lapis lazuli, a blue gemstone, in their jewelry and architecture, as it was believed to enhance mental clarity and spiritual enlightenment.
In ancient Greece, gemstones were also believed to have healing properties. Hippocrates, often referred to as the father of medicine, wrote about the healing properties of various gemstones, including emerald, which was thought to be effective in treating eye diseases.
In ancient India, gemstones were also used for their metaphysical properties. In the Ayurvedic tradition, certain gemstones were believed to balance the body's energy centers, known as chakras. For example, ruby was used to balance the heart chakra, while sapphire was believed to balance the throat chakra.
In traditional Chinese medicine, gemstones were used in conjunction with acupuncture to promote healing. They believed that each gemstone had a different energy that could be used to restore balance in the body.
Today, the use of gemstones for their metaphysical properties is still widespread. Many people use gemstones in meditation, as they are believed to enhance focus and promote relaxation. Others wear gemstone jewelry for their healing properties, such as rose quartz, which is believed to promote self-love and emotional healing.
So, what are some of the metaphysical properties of gemstones?
Each gemstone is believed to have a different energy that can promote healing and balance in the body. Here are a few examples:
Amethyst: Promotes spiritual growth and enhances intuition
Rose quartz: Promotes self-love and emotional healing
Citrine: Promotes creativity and abundance
Clear quartz: Enhances clarity and amplifies the energy of other gemstones
Black tourmaline: Provides protection and grounding
Lapis lazuli: Enhances mental clarity and promotes spiritual growth
Tiger's eye: Promotes courage and strength
It's important to note that the effectiveness of gemstones' metaphysical properties is based on personal beliefs and should not be a substitute for medical advice or treatment. If you are interested in exploring the healing and metaphysical properties of gemstones, it's always best to do so under the guidance of a qualified professional.
In conclusion, the use of gemstones for their metaphysical properties can be traced back to ancient civilizations. Through the centuries, many cultures have recognized the healing powers of gemstones, which are believed to balance the body's energy centers and promote physical, emotional, and spiritual healing. Today, the use of gemstones for their metaphysical properties is still widespread, with many people incorporating them into their daily lives for their healing properties. | <urn:uuid:2c62d26a-ffd3-4b3e-9bfe-fb0f0893bc2f> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.emsgemshandmade.com/post/metaphysics-gems-a-brief-history | 2023-09-23T18:37:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.963764 | 648 |
Being able to quit things that don’t work is integral to being a winner.
– Tim Ferriss
Our world is full of people, but how many of us are really talking to one other? How many opportunities do we miss because we are afraid to share our thoughts and feelings about the things that matter?
Most of us avoid getting to know people who are outside our immediate circle of family and friends. And when we question how well we actually know the people closest to us, the unfortunate answer may be not well at all. We hide behind the walls we’ve built to keep us secure from people we don’t know well and haven’t learned to trust. And whether we intend to or not, the more we depend on email, voicemail, fax, and other media to share information, the better hiders we become.
Ironically, the only way we can truly be safe and successful is to be in meaningful relationships with other people, not hiding in isolation. We build meaningful and lasting relationships by having meaningful conversations. The way to build support systems, uncover opportunities, or help others is to talk about things that matter on a regular basis with the people around us.
To do this effectively, we need the courage to come out from behind our walls and create an environment that encourages others to open up and communicate. We need to learn and use the following four S.A.F.E. steps to building great relationships.
S=Solicit – be open to others
People will want to talk with you if you show an interest in them and you are open to their opinions. Asking someone questions such as “Where did you grow up?” or “Where are you going on your next vacation?” will reveal more details about this person, and help you find more things in common, than asking “What do you do for a living?”
In most organizations, there is a wealth of ability and talents just waiting to be tapped. But if people aren’t talking, these hidden treasures never come to light. A good way to build a safe environment at work is to be observant and ask questions. If you are a manager, ask your employees about their backgrounds, hobbies, and accomplishments and use the information to the organization’s advantage.
A=Attend – be mentally and physically present
If you want a colleague to open up to you, give him the attention he deserves. Demonstrate with your eye contact and body language that your conversation is the most important thing you are doing at that time. Don’t answer the phone or work on the computer.
Ask questions that drill down and across the topic, you are discussing so you can explore his thoughts from various angles. Regardless of what you hear, don’t judge or criticize. Use discernment to interpret what he is saying, and listen in terms of what you want to accomplish with this relationship.
Another consideration is the physical environment. Is privacy important or is it ok to talk where others can hear? Would a conference room or your office make the other person feel more at ease? Neutral territory and even ground are usually helpful when you are trying to resolve a conflict. Remember that the environment can influence how easily people share their concerns.
F=Focus on what’s important
Many people are afraid to express their feelings or to ask for what they want. Or they simply don’t know how to clearly articulate their thoughts. You have to listen with all of your senses, not just your ears. If you are interviewing a job applicant, notice if he looking at you or around the room. Ask yourself how you feel about the answers he is giving you. If you are hearing the right words but something doesn’t feel right, you can get more information by asking about his feelings on the subject. Try a few open-ended questions and then summarize what you understand you’ve been told.
If an employee complains about one thing then brings up other problems, help him focus on what is most important to him by surgically removing whatever is getting in the way. Don’t let him dwell on things that are not productive to the conversation. And don’t assume, as people often do, that you know what he needs. You’d be amazed at how much you miss when you assume you know what someone is talking about.
E=Encourage Honest Communication
Most people encourage limited communication by their attitudes and behaviors. We condition others to approach us in certain ways by how we respond to their requests for our attention. If your boss is always busy, rushed, or distracted when you approach her, you’ll think twice before you come to her with a problem she should know about.
To encourage honest communication, treat people with respect, even if they are not in the room. Don’t allow finger pointing, gossiping or the use of absolutes such as “always” or “never.” Don’t put up barriers by asserting your rank or talking above their heads. Do let them know that you care about what they are saying and that you will use whatever they tell you for them, not against them.
If a problem arises, don’t punish people for making mistakes when they are trying to do their jobs or help the company succeed. Instead, ask, “What were you thinking about when you did that?” or “How did you come to that conclusion?” Try no-fault problem resolution meetings. Rather than look for who is at fault, why not find the problem? Bring the problem to the table, not the person to the woodshed. This will give you a better chance of identifying and figuring out together what the problem is and how to fix it. Another benefit to this approach is that once trust is established, people will bring you problems and take ownership of them. This will save you time and the company money many times over.
The key is to demonstrate on a consistent basis that you are there to help in any way you can. Leaders are here to serve, not to be served. Model this behavior and people will come to trust you and your intentions.
Meaningful dialogue takes time and effort. But it is necessary if you want to create quality relationships. What it costs on the front end will pay you great dividends on the back end in terms of enhanced teamwork, quicker problem resolution, and increased individual responsibility. Because you were interested enough in being in dialogue with them, people will work harder for you. They will give you the information you didn’t ask for and didn’t know was out there. They will “cover your back” when you didn’t know it needed covering.
No one gets anywhere without someone else helping them. People who climb the ladder with others pushing them up are happier than those who climb it by any other method. You never know when you might need help and, if you have invested your time in getting to know the people around you, when you need support you’ll know whom to call.
When you master the steps to keeping your communications S.A.F.E., you have the key to tearing down the walls between us, and to building lasting relationships throughout your personal and professional life. What is the value of creating an effective dialogue with those around you at home, in the community, and at work? Priceless!

The Van Loan School at Endicott College’s Director of Graduate Licensure and Fellowship Programs Dr. Aubry Threlkeld; and Associate Director, Graduate Licensure Programs Dr. Bethany Rice, are both scheduled to present at The Inclusive Education Summit (TIES) in Adelaide,Australia.The summit will run October 26-29 at the University of Southern Australia and will explore questions like, “What kind of world do we want to live in?” and “How might education help us to achieve that vision for our children?”
TIES invites educators and others from around the globe to present research or inclusive education projects on the following sub-themes: Educational Exclusion; Indigenous Education; Disability and Education; Refugee Education; Education for Children Living in Remote and Rural Areas; Poverty and Education; Children Living in Areas of War and Conflict; Religious and Ethnic Exclusion/Inclusion; LGBTG Education; and Education Policy-Making and Reform.
Rice will be presenting “Emerging from the Shadows: Developing a Culture of Literacy in Rural Secondary Schools” — new work that examines the literacy environment and practices in rural secondary schools in the state of Vermont.
“The needs of rural schools are often overshadowed by their urban counterparts,” said Rice. “By highlighting successful literacy practices in rural schools, I hope to offer a model for other communities.”
Threlkeld will be presenting new work on the future of inclusive education research. “Crip Studies in Education: A Theoretical Exploration” offers a way forward for disability studies in both education and inclusive education through the centering of disabled people’s voices, and new theoretical interventions from community scholars.
“We cannot continue to merely talk about inclusion,” said Threlkeld. “We have to practice it and the voices of people with disabilities need to structure it.”
Rice and Threlkeld will also jointly present “Autoethnography as Critical Reflective Practice: Themes in Teacher Candidates Stories of Teaching and Learning.” Through this work they hope to call attention to how teacher candidates develop their beliefs in education, and raise awareness of how those beliefs impact students.
“Attending and participating in a global conference like this is invaluable,” said Threlkeld. “Sharing our research, and learning from others, gives us all an opportunity to collaborate on providing a better future for the world’s young people with disabilities.”

Why We Need Sleep
Sleep is one of life's necessity's needed to maintain good health. In fact, without it, our health is sure to fail! Sleep allows our body to rest, to repair itself, and to cleanse itself. Our body performs different functions when we are awake than it does when we are resting. If we want to be ready to face new day and be our best, we need to rest! It just isn't an option and when we cheat ourselves on sleep, we deprive our body's account and sooner or later, that account is going to need to be replenished. The body's job is to maintain health, it will steal from Peter to pay Paul and when Peter has no more to give, things start to collapse.
How Much Sleep Do We Need
Well how much we need actually depends upon our age. Babies and toddlers require the most. Most babies require at least 16 hours per day and most toddlers seem to need around 11- 12 hours per day. School aged children as well as teenagers need at least 10 hours per day. Adults and seniors need at least 7 - 8 hours of sleep per day. Those of us who have been blessed with children or nieces and nephews are not surprised at how much kids actually sleep during their growth spurts. When you are a baby, toddler or teenager, the body is continually evolving and that is why the body requires so much of it. Think of all the things that the body needs to accomplish from those first steps through puberty. If we want to maintain optimal health which also includes a healthy mind we need it!
Our sleep is broken down into cycles, with each cycle taking approximately 90 minutes to complete. These cycles are a combination of two various stages - Non REM Sleep and REM (rapid eye movement).
During our 90 minute cycle, we drift through the various stages of Non REM and REM. Non Rem consists of a very light sleep to a very deep sleep. This very deep stage of Non Rem Sleep is when those delta waves kick in and it is difficult for anyone to wake up. By the time we have reached this deep stage, our breathing, brain waves, heart rate and blood pressure as well as body temperature decreases or slow down. It is during this deep stage that our muscles and tissues are repaired and hormones are secreted to balance the body.
REM sleep begins after the Non Rem Stage of deep sleep and it begins the portion of our cycle where rapid eye movement occurs and our dreams become vivid. Our muscles become more rigid and our breathing and heart rate can vary based on our dreams. They say REM cycle is also where our mind processes and files the days activites, and offers the most benefit for the replenishing of the mind.
Don't under estimate the 90 minute sleep cycle. Experts say that a restful night isn't just about how many hours your rest. It is also about completing the 90 minute sleep cycles. It is said that a good night's rest should consist of transitioning and completing several 90 minute cycles. They say adults and seniors need between 7 - 8 hours per night. In fact, if you schedule your sleep pattern on 90 minute sleep cycles, you will feel better if you sleep 6 hours or 7 1/2 hours as opposed to 5 hours or 8 hours. Six or 7 1/2 hours completes the 90 minute cycle where 5 or 8 hours wakes you up in the middle of a cycle. If you are having trouble waking up or are fatigued in the afternoon, review how many hours you have slept and see if you possibly woke up in the middle of one of your cycles.
These cycles are so important they have books about them, calenders, and apps to make sure you make the most of them and obtain a good night's rest. Check out the following book: The 90-Minute Baby Sleep Program: Follow Your Child's Natural Sleep Rhythms for Better Nights and Naps or Google's App The 90 Minute Sleepy Time Calculator or the ITunes App The Sleep Cycle Alarm Clock.
Many people struggle with sleep disorders that can and often do prevent them from achieving REM sleep and completing their 90 minute cycle. These disorders include:
- Restless Legs Syndrome
- Sleep Apnea
The above disorders can pose great threat to your overall health. If you feel you have could have one of these disorders, you should seek assistance.
Health Problems associated with a Lack of Sleep
Scientists believe the more deep stages and REM stages our bodies do not achieve, the less our body is able to repair itself. This weakens our overall immune system and can create chemical imbalances throughout the body. Lack of sleep increases our risk for the following problems.
- Many Chronic Diseases
- Cardiovascular problems including Heart Disease and Stroke
- Increased Risk of Accidents
What can you do to get a Good Night's Rest
There are many things that can interrupt or disturb your patterns. Many people who deal with physical symptoms such as pain, or medical conditions such as asthma may find it difficult to rest when they are not feeling well. Anxiety or depression can also impact how well you sleep. Too much light in your bedroom, pets on the bed, alcohol can all have an effect on how well you rest.
You may have problems sleeping if you have a hard time waking up, need a daily nap, or fall asleep while watching tv in the evening. To make sure you are getting a good night's rest try to go to bed and get up at the same time each day, making sure you are completing your 90 minute cycles. Ensure your bedroom is quiet and dark and that you find its enviroment relaxing. Also, I have noticed that if I eat a late dinner, I tend to not rest as well, so try to avoid eating large meals before bedtime.
One can see why these disorders should be addressed sooner than later and why you take steps to improve your sleep. If you take the time to exercise, drink healthy water, and eat food the way nature intended, then don't cheat your health by not getting enough rest! Your life depends on it! If you have trouble falling asleep, consider trying one of the following to help. When I can't close my eyes and rest, I get up and use the chi machine to help me unwind and turn off my mental chatter. I will also often use my Sleep Aromatherapy Inhaler. You may also want to try some essential oil blends like Refuge Calming Blend so you can create a pillow spray or add a few drops to a kleenex and put it under your pillow. You may also want to try an herbal supplement like Herbal Sleep. Here's To a Good Night's Rest!

EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) or "Tapping", created by G. Craig, is a simple technique to treat emotional disorder by tapping on acupressure points with fingertips, stimulating some meridian points on the body.
By practicing Tapping / EFT, you can harmonize your energetic system in order to decrease too strong emotions that could block you (like fear, grief, anger, guilt, worry, etc...) and make them disappear and be replaced by calm and harmony feelings.
EFT is a step by step approach to "clean" any traces and memories that are contributing to the emotional and energetic disorder.
It is possible to use EFT to treat phobia, trauma, mourning (any kind of) etc...

Game of Thrones is heading toward the finish line and HBO is already developing a prequel to keep the world of Westeros alive and on TV. And there could be another spinoff about the Stark sisters, Arya and Sansa?
"Oh, I would sign up for that!" Maisie Williams told E! News.
"I would sign up for that, I wouldn't sign up for any other spinoff…I wouldn't sign up for any other spinoff unless Maisie was in it," Sophie Turner said.
"Nice, me neither," Williams said.
"And no one else," Turner added.
When the two TV sisters and real-life besties sat down with E! News ahead of the Game of Thrones season eight premiere, the two discussed their first impressions of each other, their last day on set and what their favorite quality about the other is. Get ready for sweetness overload.
As for more show-related questions, we also asked them what would happen if Arya, Sansa and Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) met and they played coy.
"I'm sure Sansa would be like I'm the hair queen," Williams said.
And about Arya's kill list, will she complete it? "There's a lot of names on there," Williams said.
"Do you remember all the names?" Turner asked her.
There are six episodes and maybe eight names left. "I think she could make that," the both said.

Many Americans are getting ready for pool season and fun in the sun. Unsurprisingly, we’ve seen an increase in the popularity of GLP-1 agonists for their effectiveness at weight loss.
Obesity rates continue to rise nationwide.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over 40% of Americans are obese (BMI >30). An additional 31% of the population is overweight (BMI 25-29.9). This is a major public health concern as weight issues can lead to other chronic conditions like diabetes, musculoskeletal concerns, hypertension, and some forms of cancer.
Not only is obesity dangerous if left unmanaged, but it is also costly.
According to the National Institutes of Health, employers pay over $70 billion annually for obesity-related costs. It’s no surprise that the popularity of Type 2 diabetic drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro are hitting the media airwaves for their effectiveness toward weight loss.
The desire of over two-thirds of the American adult population to lose weight has employees pushing for their employer-sponsored health plan to cover the costs of these drugs. Ozempic (FDA-approved to treat diabetes) has also been FDA-approved for weight loss under the brand name, Wegovy. Mounjaro is currently approved for diabetes, yet its FDA approval for weight loss is still pending.
Employers recognize these medications are costly to the health plan if covered and require long-term use.
If an employer decides to cover these drugs (or not), the best long-term solution for weight loss and weight management is truly behavioral health modification.
So, what low-budget options can employers consider for promoting weight management and wellbeing in the workplace?
- Employees who seek weight loss should be encouraged to change the underlying causes of overweight and obesity issues that may stem from lifestyle factors.
- Employers can address their employee population’s health and weight management by promoting health and wellbeing at the workplace. There are low-budget (to no-budget) options in the marketplace. One low-budget option for employers is FREE phone applications that can support employee wellbeing and weight management.
In addition, EPIC encourages employers to develop strategic communications to promote a more well-rounded plan for weight management, chronic condition prevention, and risk reduction within their employee population.

We report the magnetocaloric effects and temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) of La0.85Ag0.15MnO3 epitaxial thin films grown on single-crystal substrates of LaAlO3 (001) and SrTiO3 (001) using the chemical solution approach of polymer-assisted deposition (PAD). The film thicknesses are in the range 30-35 nm. Magnetocaloric effects, with entropy changes of -2.14 J/kg.K, in the case of the LaAlO3 substrate and -2.72 J/kg.K for the SrTiO3 substrate, (corresponding to a magnetic field variation of 2T) were obtained at room temperature. The refrigeration capacity at this field variation reached large values of 125 J/kg and 216 J/kg, indicating that these films prepared by PAD have the potential for microcooling applications. The temperature coefficient of resistance has been calculated from the resistivity measurements. A maximum TCR value of 3.01 % K-1 was obtained at 309 K, which shows that these films also have potential as uncooled thermometers for bolometric applications.

As “Little Children” begins, the tranquility of the upper-class suburban town of Wyndam, Mass., has been disturbed. A skinny, middle-aged pedophile has moved into the neighborhood, fresh out of a two-year prison stint for exposing himself to little boys. Already, the town’s parents are posting fliers on telephone poles, warning their neighbors about the man’s presence.
But this isn’t a movie about sexual predators. The little children of the title are involved only tangentially, mostly as a way of connecting the adults to each other. The irony, missed by all of Wyndam’s anxious, indignant citizens, is that the ex-con doesn’t pose nearly as great a threat to their peace of mind as their other neighbors do.
This is the second feature from “In the Bedroom” director Todd Fields, and it’s a markedly more satiric, more visually interesting affair than the somber (but spectacularly well-acted) downer that “In the Bedroom” was. The way Fields tells this story, which he adapted with Tom Perrotta from Perrotta’s book, is unflaggingly engaging, like a novel that gets more audacious with each chapter.
The most noticeably unusual feature is the film’s use of a narrator who is not also a character in the story. With the authoritative, detached, and slightly wry voice of Will Lyman (who voices PBS’s “Frontline” series), the narrator is omniscient, and the film surprises us by constantly expanding the story to include new characters, always introduced and explained in Lyman’s comforting tones.
We first meet a bevy of housewives who gather at the park every morning with their children. Three of them are more or less interchangeable; the fourth, Sarah Pierce (Kate Winslet), is different from them, and all four know it. Sarah, the wife of a workaholic husband and mother of an adorable little girl, isn’t as pristinely efficient as her robotic counterparts. Sometimes she forgets to bring a snack for young Lucy. She feels unfulfilled, something her fellow moms can’t relate to, or at least not that they could admit.
The other three giggle and swoon over Brad (Patrick Wilson), a handsome househusband they’ve dubbed “Prom King” who occasionally visits the same park with his little boy. They’ve never spoken to him, a fact that encourages Sarah to finally break the ice and prove she’s different from these silly-minded housewives. Brad and Sarah start a friendship together, ostensibly so their kids can play, but really because they enjoy one another’s daytime company.
Brad’s wife, Kathy (Jennifer Connelly), is supportive but emotionally cold. She sends him out to the library every night so he can study for the bar exam (he’s already failed it twice). Every night on his way to the library he passes a skate park where teenage boys spend hours perfecting their skateboard tricks, and he winds up stopping to watch them instead of studying. There is nothing untoward or sexual in his admiration of them; it’s his own youth he’s recalling. These guys are the age he was when he was a football hero, young and virile and full of potential. He was so happy then. What happened?
Brad and Sarah’s friendship goes further than it ought to, and one of the film’s minor disappointments is how predictable that is, and that is happens for the usual reasons: their spouses are distant, they don’t understand them, etc., etc. (The other minor disappointment is the use of the old trope where characters read a novel — in this case “Madame Bovary” — that parallels their lives. Don’t people in movies ever read books that have nothing to do with anything?)
While Sarah and Brad are the main focus, we also learn the stories, sad, funny, or both, of their friends and neighbors. That includes some scenes with the pedophile, Ronnie (Jackie Earle Haley), whose aged mother (Phyllis Somerville) thinks he’s a good boy who just needs a girlfriend to help settle him down. They are constantly harassed by Larry (Noah Emmerich), an acquaintance of Brad’s who has made it his duty to make life a living hell for Ronnie and his mom.
Fields has grown as a director since his auspicious debut film. “Little Children” is superbly handled all the way through, but one scene sticks out in particular. In the midst of a heat wave, parents have their children at a public pool when Ronnie the sicko suddenly shows up to take a dip. Fields gives the scene the full “Jaws” treatment (without the music), using little dialogue and only a perverse, subtle sense of humor to make the sequence look like a shark attack.
The point, ultimately, seems to be that dangers, both physical and emotional, lurk everywhere. Presenting sunny suburbia as having a dark side is not a new tactic, of course, but Fields and company present this grim, smirking fable with refreshing ingenuity. It combines sardonic humor with a piercing glance at the soul-crushing blandness of daily life.

Go for something tangy and delicious with this easy Orange Olive Oil Loaf. Made with orange juice and orange zest and completed with a deliciously sweet glaze!
The most delicious citrus baked treat
Have you enjoyed your fair share of chocolate desserts so far this season? Are you over the cookies and pies want something different? Okay, I know, I know. One can never have too much chocolate or pie.
But just in case your taste buds are in the mood to switch dessert up a bit, here is one of my all-time favorite citrus recipes. This orange olive oil loaf is a delicious cake (or bread, depending on what you want to call it) that is made with simple baking ingredients, orange juice and zest, and an incredible three-ingredient glaze.
The best part? It’s easy. Just mix the batter and bake, and then mix the glaze and drizzle it on top!
Ingredients in this orange olive oil loaf recipe
Ready to dive in? Start by gathering all of the ingredients that you’ll need for both the loaf and the glaze. Here’s everything listed in the order that you’ll use it!
- Almond flour: First up for the loaf, you will need 2 cups of almond flour.
- Tapioca flour: Then, supplement the almond flour with 1/2 cup of tapioca flour.
- Baking soda: 1/2 tbsp of baking soda will help the loaf cook properly.
- Salt: Add flavor with 1/4 tsp of salt.
- Eggs: 3 eggs will help the ingredients bind together and contribute to the texture of the loaf.
- Olive oil: Every baked good needs oil of some sort! Use 1/3 cup of olive oil.
- Honey: Add some sweet flavor by including 1/2 cup of honey.
- Orange juice: Finally, the orange flavor! Start by adding 1/4 cup of orange juice.
- Orange zest: Then, follow the OJ with 2 tbsp of orange zest.
- Vanilla: Last but not least, finish off the batter with 1 tsp of vanilla.
- Powdered sugar: The base of the glaze is made with 1 cup of powdered sugar.
- Orange juice: Add more tangy flavor with 1 tbsp of orange juice.
- Olive oil: Finish off the glaze mixture with 1 tbsp of olive oil.
Tools needed to make an orange olive oil loaf cake
As for measuring out ingredients, plan to use the following cup sizes: 1/4 tsp, 1 tsp, 1/2 tbsp, 1 tbsp, 1/4 cup, 1/3 cup, 1/2 cup, and 1 cup.
How to make a citrus olive oil loaf
Orange olive oil loaf is one of those treats that seems like it would require a ton of effort. In reality, it’s quite easy!
To begin, start by preheating the oven to 350°F and greasing an 8×4 loaf pan.
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet until everything is incorporated.
Then, pour the batter into the greased loaf pan. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool.
While the loaf bakes, prepare the glaze by whisking together all of the glaze ingredients.
Once the loaf has cooled, drizzle the glaze on top. Cut into slices and enjoy!
Can I use a loaf pan size other than 8×4?
Yes, feel free! But note that a different sized pan will require a different baking time. Be sure to keep an eye on things to prevent burning and bake until a toothpick comes out clean!
I don’t have oranges but I do have lemons. Can I replace the oranges with them?
This would probably be delicious! Feel free to give it a whirl using the same measurements listed in the recipe card below. Don’t forget to add some lemon juice to the glaze too!
Find yourself with a slice or two left over? Don’t worry, orange olive oil loaf stores quite well! Simply cover in plastic wrap or tin foil or place in an airtight container. Store at room temperature — not the refrigerator — to keep it nice and moist!

A new technology enables both interactive communication and observation capabilities with a telepresence robot platform
Thanks to recent strides in robotics and mobile devices, telepresence technology has opened up numerous possibilities at both the K-12 and higher-ed levels, where remote observation and communication can come in handy.
Educators and students are exploring a new way to remotely observe and interact with colleagues and peers with a telepresence robot that enables face-to-face communication.
Using Kubi, from Revolve Robotics, users download an app onto a tablet and connect the tablet to Kubi using Bluetooth. The tablet sits on a robotic platform. Other users can then “navigate” to Kubi with a browser. This lets them control the robot remotely over the web, including moving it for face-to-face communication.…Read More | <urn:uuid:ef038b20-6732-4f57-a297-36792cec66be> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.eschoolnews.com/tag/telepresence/ | 2023-09-23T17:34:31Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.889775 | 170 |

German railroad company Deutsche Bahn announced that its greenhouse gas reduction targets have been approved by the Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi). Deutsche Bahn’s targets, including its goal to halve CO2e emissions by 2030 relative to 2006 levels and achieve climate neutrality by 2050, are considered to be in line with the 2°C Paris Agreement category.
SBTi was formed as a collaboration between CDP, World Resources Institute (WRI), the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), and the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), with the goal to establish science-based environmental target setting as a standard corporate practice. Achieving approval of targets by SBTi is a significant milestone for companies’ sustainability efforts, with many companies joining the initiative, but only slightly over 400 receiving approval globally to date.
According to Deutsche Bahn, the approval confirms that travel by train is active climate protection. SBTi lists the company’s targets as follows:
“Deutsche Bahn commits to reduce scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 50% across transportation services on a per passenger-km, tonne-km, track-km, and per station basis by 2030 from a 2006 base year. Deutsche Bahn commits to reduce scope 3 emissions from freight transportation and bus services 50% per tonne-km and passenger-km by 2030 from a 2006 base year. Deutsche Bahn commits to reduce absolute scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions 100% by 2050 from a 2006 base year.” | <urn:uuid:886548fb-31b1-4633-854a-6bac7ba53891> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.esgtoday.com/deutsche-bahn-ghg-targets-approved-by-science-based-targets-initiative/ | 2023-09-23T18:36:38Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.941075 | 312 |

President-elect Joe Biden’s nomination of Neera Tanden, the president of the Center for American Progress think tank, for director of the Office of Management and Budget has ruffled more than a few feathers. The controversy surrounding Tanden comes after she deleted over 1,000 tweets following the nomination, as well as her behavior during Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (D-VT) most recent presidential campaign.
Tanden has been an advisor on a number of Democratic presidential campaigns, including former presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama. She also aided Hillary Clinton during her 2016 presidential run against Donald Trump.
Her problems with Sen. Sanders arose during his second presidential campaign, during which he accused her of “[calling] for unity while simultaneously misaligning [his] staff and supporters and belittling progressive ideas,” in a scathing letter to the Center for American Progress. Shortly thereafter, the New York Times published a piece alleging that she had punched Center for American Progress editor Faiz Shakir in 2008, after he had asked Hillary Clinton an interview question about the Iraq war. This was a soft spot for Hillary and according to the write up, Tanden punched Shakir in the chest following the exchange. Tanden maintains that she pushed him.
Shakir went on to be campaign manager for Sen. Sanders, which is why the recent nomination by President-elect Biden comes as such a shock.
Tanden has also been known to get into fiery debates with Republican elected officials and left-leaning Democrats alike, including some of the very senators from whom she now needs support. She has also deleted over 1,000 tweets, some of which include pointed digs at senators.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer criticized Republicans on the Senate floor today, describing negative reactions as “crocodile tears.” Schumer says “the hypocrisy is astounding” in response to Republicans attacking Tanden behind tweets.
Despite the growing criticism, Tanden tweeted on Monday that she is “beyond honored” to be nominated by Biden for the vital role. She continued by saying, “My mother relied on public food and housing programs to get by, now I’m being nominated to help ensure those programs are secure.” | <urn:uuid:f34ad36a-c96b-4f75-bb5c-882b3b239353> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.essence.com/news/bernie-sanders-neera-tanden-nomination/ | 2023-09-23T19:03:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.976839 | 467 |
Former prisoners in Virginia have one less barrier to overcome when it comes to voting.
Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe announced yesterday that the state would be abolishing a rule that required the felons to pay outstanding court fees before they would be allowed to register to vote once they were released. Various civil rights groups, including the American Civil Liberties Union, had been calling for the change, calling the current requirement a modern-day poll tax. Under the new regulations, ex-prisoners—the majority of whom are Black—will still be required to pay the fees, but, if unable to do so, they won’t be barred from voting.
McAuliffe’s announcement yesterday will automatically reinstate voting rights to more than 8,000 individuals throughout the state.
“These changes move the Commonwealth forward at a time when voter participation is particularly important to the future ecumenic prosperity of our minority communities,” State Sen. Mamie Locke (D) said in a statement. | <urn:uuid:92153530-f3d4-4f9a-8a40-324c7082be91> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.essence.com/news/virginia-law-makes-voting-easier-former-prisoners/ | 2023-09-23T16:55:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.93704 | 203 |

On 19 December the Executive Director of eu-LISA Mr Krum GARKOV and the Estonian Minister of the Interior Mr Hanno Pevkur signed the Site Agreement between the Agency and the Estonian Government.
The Agreement, consisting of 25 articles outlining the rights and obligations of both signatories, commits to the construction of a new headquarters for the Agency in Tallinn and defines a number of rights for the Agency’s employees, in line with other agreements signed between established EU Agencies and their host states.
Mr Krum Garkov thanked the Minister for the conclusion of the Site Agreement, noting that its signature is a clear proof of the continued support of the Estonian authorities to the Agency.
Under the terms of the Agreement, Estonia has undertaken to build a head office with space for 100 employees for the Agency. The building will be available for eu-LISA to be used free of charge and the office should be ready by December 2017. The Estonian budget strategy 2014-2017 has assigned 8,4 million euros for this purpose.
The Agreement also defines the status and rights of the employees of the Agency. Thus, for example, the principle of privileges and immunities as per the Protocol on the Privileges and Immunities of the European Union will apply to the staff in the execution of their duties. Additionally, the staff of the Agency and members of their household are not subjected to immigration restrictions in Estonia.
The agreement was approved by the Management Board of the Agency on 17 December via written procedure and the signing took place in eu-LISA’s premises in Tallinn on 19 December.
eu-LISA has already signed Site Agreements with the government of France for the operational site in Strasbourg on 5 December 2013 and with the government of Austria on 27 May 2013 concerning the back-up site of the systems. | <urn:uuid:3c460fbf-8585-4a79-87d8-ddd84c023062> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.eulisa.europa.eu/Newsroom/News/Pages/Estonia-signs-agreement.aspx | 2023-09-23T18:36:44Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.963094 | 382 |
The European Union (EU) often is considered impossible to transform because it is governed by treaties that only can be revised by unanimity. While national politics, despite all the limitations of representative democracy, is an arena in which competition is arbitrated through universal suffrage, European politics often is perceived as being totally out of citizens’ control, governed through elitist, and often confidential, negotiations that are insensitive to the public’s discontent and aspirations. Are there only two choices––accept the EU as is or leave it?
First, this reasoning ignores democracy’s historical dynamics. The fact that a regime protects the status quo through formal rules never has prevented a democratic revolution. The authoritarian monarchies of the 18th and 19th centuries were much more conservative than today’s EU. Nevertheless, they have been transformed. The history of democracy is the history of its conquests, of its emergence where it was least expected.
Second, this reasoning does not reflect the reality of European politics. No, the EU is not blocked by the unanimity rule. Throughout its history, governments have invented many ways to overcome this obstacle and elicit reforms despite a reluctant minority:
- Compromise. If all member states had to agree on everything every time they drafted or revised a treaty, European integration would never have even started. Major advances were rarely consensual, but were made possible through transactions between states.
- Threatening the minority with marginalisation. This is what happened in the case of the 1986 European Single Act. Margaret Thatcher's UK (as well as Denmark and Greece) voted against the opening of negotiations to revise the Treaty of Rome, but eventually joined the negotiations out of fear of being left behind while other member states moved forward.
- Differentiated integration. The euro, Schengen and defence cooperation are policies that some states chose not to embrace from the outset, but did not prevent other member states from adopting them.
- Replacing treaty revision with an intergovernmental agreement between some member states only. This was done for the 2012 European Fiscal Compact, adopted by 25 states, but rejected by the UK and Czech Republic.
If these strategies could serve the objectives of yesterday’s elites, why should they not serve the democratic aspirations of today’s citizens?
Furthermore, it is possible to reform the EU and increase citizens' power without needing to revise treaties simply by reforming some member states’ practices.
For example, this is how the US presidential election became democratic. Indeed, the US Constitution leaves each state free to decide how to appoint the electors who vote for US president. Originally, most states chose them through their legislatures. The practice of choosing them via popular election became progressively widespread during the 19th century. This evolution was not the result of a constitutional amendment, but of state-level reforms.
Similarly, an EU member state today could declare: ‘On this important issue, the position we will defend in the EU Council will depend on the mandate our citizens will give us by referendum’. As for the appointment of the European Commission’s president, which currently is accomplished through negotiations between national leaders and members of the European Parliament, a member state could commit itself to consulting its citizens on their preferred candidate before taking a position. If these practices were to spread, even to a few member states, the nature of concerned EU decisions would change radically.
Therefore, the formal problem of unanimity largely is overestimated. However, a political problem remains.
If the democratisation of practices affects only one member state, citizens’ voices will not make a decisive impact. The Greeks experienced this bitterly after the July 2015 debt referendum. A large majority of Greek citizens voted against the agreement that the EU proposed, but Greece, nevertheless, found itself too isolated to be able to oppose the united front of all the other member states and eventually gave in. Therefore, it is not necessarily enough for citizens to have their say. They must have it in a sufficient number of member states so that their voices cannot be ignored.
Here again, political elites already have demonstrated that it is perfectly possible to transform the EU's political system by aggregating national mobilisations. This is how the European Parliament initially was empowered. Indeed, the European Parliament originally only had consultative power. How did it become a key player in EU decision making? Beginning in the 1960s, it benefited from the mobilisation of national parliaments, which pressured their respective national governments through the following message: ‘The parliamentary powers we exercise at a national level should also be exercised at the European level; that is why we will only ratify the treaties you have negotiated if they include provisions strengthening the European Parliament’. The German, Dutch and Italian Parliaments in particular have been at the forefront of this fight, and parliaments exercised pressure in enough member states for governments to be obliged to consider their demands.
Could citizens do in the future what parliamentarians did in the past? Can we imagine that one day, the governments of a significant number of member states will arrive in Brussels and say to their counterparts: ‘My citizens are demanding strong measures in favour of EU-level democracy, such as the popular election of the Commission or the creation of a European referendum on popular initiative. I cannot agree on anything if I do not have guarantees on these points’?
In other words, is it conceivable for a coalition of simultaneous popular mobilisations in favour of democracy to be formed in Europe?
To answer this question, we need not probe the future; it is the past that we must examine. A European revolution is possible because it already happened.
In the 19th century, Europe was governed by authoritarian monarchies. In 1815, these monarchs formed the Holy Alliance, with the objective of protecting each other against future revolutions. However, in 1848, in almost all parts of Europe, with the notable exceptions of Russia and the UK, people simultaneously rose up to demand democratic reforms. The chronology of the first few months speaks for itself:
- January: revolt in Sicily, then in southern Italy
- 24 February: barricades in Paris and proclamation of the Republic
- 4 March: uprising in Munich
- 13 March: uprising in Vienna
- 15 March: uprising in Budapest
- 17 March: uprisings in Venice and Krakow
- 18 March: uprisings in Milan and Berlin
- 21 March: mass demonstration in Copenhagen
- 24 March: riots in Amsterdam
All over Europe, people protested, demonstrated, waved tricolour flags, created assemblies, voted, drafted constitutions, signed petitions and founded free newspapers and political clubs.
Contemporary actors were fully aware that they were participating in a European movement. The news of uprisings in other countries often was celebrated. The French February revolution kicked off the mobilisation in Germany. In May, a demonstration was held in Paris in support of Polish revolutionaries. In June, young Romanians who had fought on the Parisian barricades sparked a revolution in their own country.
When reactionary forces hit the continent, the democrats did not forget the European nature of their struggle. In July 1850, revolutionaries exiled in London created the European Democratic Central Committee. Members included Alexandre Ledru-Rollin, who had been Minister of the Interior in the French 1848 provisional government; Giuseppe Mazzini, who had founded the Young Europe movement in the 1830s and had been one of the leaders of the Roman republic established in 1849; Arnold Ruge, the main spokesman of the democratic party in the German Frankfurt Parliament, founded in May 1848; and Wojciech Darasz, who represented Polish democrats. In the face of the Holy Alliance of monarchs, these men called for the formation of a ‘Holy Alliance of People’, the union of European democratic parties and the reorganisation of Europe by a congress of representatives from all nations. For them, ‘European democracy’ was based on brotherhood among nations against the ‘League of Kings’.
Unfortunately, the regimes put in place during the 1848 revolution generally were short-lived, and the European Democratic Central Committee’s hopes were not fulfilled. European brotherhood soon gave way to rivalries and wars.
And yet, how can we not be struck by this precedent? A European democratic revolution was possible during the days of assertive nationalism and horse-drawn carriages, but we are told that it would be impossible in today's EU? How can we not see the current relevance of this struggle by pro-democracy citizens, both against the elites who sought to suppress their voices and against ethnocentric chauvinism that weakened them by pitting nations against each other?
The 1848 revolution reveals a truth that has been repressed from national memories. No, democracy was not born within isolated and inward-looking nations that the EU would now artificially link to each other. Quite the contrary! National democracies were born and took their first steps in the context of a European movement. The precursors who fought during the heroic age––when shouting ‘Long live democracy!’ could cost you your life––spent their time crossing borders, circulating ideas, drawing inspiration from their neighbours, embracing foreign causes and hoping for a continent-wide victory. Reactivating the European revolution’s rhetoric today does not mean weakening national democracies; it means reminding them of their origin, of their baptism.
Sometimes, remembering leads to action. Remember, Europe!
My name is Pierre Haroche and I am a specialist in European integration and European security.
In this blog I present my thoughts on EU democracy, defence and identity. If you are interested in my proposals, do not hesitate to get in touch!
My book (in French) is a commented anthology of literary texts on the idea of Europe, since Antiquity.
Writers, before politicians and civil servants, have made Europe by invoking it. They made it through their vision, their sensitivity, their taste. Europe is an entity that cannot be reduced to the sum of its parts, but encompasses them. From ancient myths to contemporary issues, a journey through an uncertain continent in the company of Hesiod, Ovid, Victor Hugo, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Thomas Mann, Stefan Zweig, Henry James, Albert Cohen, Aurélien Bellanger, Orhan Pamuk, Laurent Gaudé and many others. | <urn:uuid:a3ba718c-9847-4d93-8f33-3e994887315d> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.europetothepeople.eu/blog/is-a-european-revolution-possible | 2023-09-23T18:10:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.970676 | 2,150 |

Karaage is Japanese style fried chicken.
Karaage can be a meal or a snack and it is very popular dish ordered at Izakaya(Japanese tavern).
The difference between Japanese karaagae and western fried chicken is that western version uses seasonings too but dried ones, like spices, salts and peppers. On the other hand Japanese karaage uses liquid seasonings as like soy sauce, squeezed garlic, squeezed ginger and etc.
Usually the chicken with soy sauce and other seasonings and then covered by either flour or starch and deep fried. Due to it is marinated, the inside is juicy but outside is crispy thanks to the flour or starch. Then, no need to add sauces on it.
This karaage was taken in Hakodate, Hokkaido where karaage is also called as ZANGI. Nakatsu city in Oita prefecture in Kyushu and Niihama city in Ehime prefecture in Shikoku also have local special karaage too. | <urn:uuid:2f133ea7-46e8-43b9-8fc5-9c0d252d4701> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.evolutionjapantour.com/post/2017/12/03/karaage | 2023-09-23T19:17:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.948106 | 210 |
Being Accessible does not mean you are available 24/7/52. We all have limits on the degree to which we can be reached by co-workers, and you should feel comfortable enforcing and expecting others to honor these limits.
Can you be too successful at modeling accessible behavior? Is this an example of “too much of a good thing”? We all know that sunlight is a good thing, yet too much can cause skin cancer. We know that the human body needs sugar to survive, and yet too much may cause diabetes. If you’re wildly successful at being accessible, you may find your calendar under attack.
Your goal is to make sure you are being accessible to serve the needs of others, not to become their servant.
Behaviors of Those Successful at Accessibility
- For advance requests to see you, schedule times that work within your calendar.
- For unexpected knocks on your office door, ask if the question/topic is urgent or not. If not urgent, say something like the following: “I’m interested in speaking with you, yet I have a report that I am working on that is due in about an hour. Can we schedule a time for us to chat? Let’s quickly look at our calendars and schedule something.”
- For topics that are urgent and you don’t have time to address, ensure that your unexpected visitor knows that you have only a moment of time. Focus your comments on next steps and possibly identifying another individual who can act on your behalf. “I’m interested in speaking with you, yet I have a report that I am working on that is due in about an hour. Can you give me a minute recap of the situation so I can at least help you identify your next step?”
- For times when you need to focus on work without interruption, find an available conference room, a vacant office, or the employee cafeteria. Seek other ways to get your work done before you stay in your office and close your door.

This book encompasses total fifty chapters as per CCIM's newly framed UG & PG syllabus. It is designed in such a manner that it also stands useful to the diploma courses in Ayurveda pharmaceutics framed by few universities.
The wide-ranging concepts of Bhaishajya Kalpana are dealt here in a rational and sincere manner, keeping in mind the interests Ayurveda scholars. This book is categorized into three segments; the first segment is from chapter 1 to 4 which has history & the fundamentals of this science. Chapter 5 to 41 is recognized as the 2nd segment which has all the pharmaceutical prepara- tions with their explanations and typical examples. The third segment is considered from chapter 42 to 50 which deals about the modern aspects of the pharmaceutical preparations.
RAVINDRA ANGADI M. D. (Ayu) The author completed his under graduation from D. G. M. Ayurvedic Medical College, Gadag, of Karnataka University Dharwad in the year 1997 -98 and post graduation in the subject of Bhaishajya Kalpana from A. L. N. Rao Ayurvedic .Medical College, Koppa, of Rajiv Gandhi University Bangalore in 2003. Since then he is working in the Post Graduation Department of Bhaishajya Kalpana, at S. D. M. College of Ayurveda, Udupi. He is now assistant professor and university recognized post graduation guide in his department. He has presented several papers in different national, international and state level seminars and CME's in his subject Rasashastra and Bhaishajya Kalpana and also in the subject ofDravyaguna.
Ayurveda, a divine and complete life science, developed in Indian subcontinent by the great ancient sages. It is the oldest medical tradition of the world. The doctrine of Ayurveda is based on the harmony of sarira-manasa dosas viz. vata, pitta, kapha & sattva, raja, and tama. Equilibrium state of sarira-manasa dosas provides healthy status to the human body, where as imbalance status causes diseases. This status is synchronizing by the nature using materials already present in nature. Nature is the abundant source of all kinds of material distributed into the plant animal and mineral kingdoms Requirement of diet and drug fulfilled from the same.
Under the four pillars of successful treatment (catuspada of cikitsa) drug occupied important second position. Drug is a tool of physician. Appropriate drug can only serve the problem. Hence Bhaisajya Kalpana subject was developed. In the curriculum of this subject all the scattered material and factors related with drug manufacturing and dispensing are compiled and frame the syllabi. From the historical back ground to chronological development, fundamental principles (adhara-buta siddhanta), weights and measures (mana), anukta-lesokta paribhasa, collection and storage of raw material, basic and their derivatives, anupana, ausadha kala etc. all the topics are included into it.
According to Ayurveda, there is no material in universe which can not be used as medicine (nanausadhibhutam jagati kincid dravyamupalabhyate tam tam yuktimartham ca tam tamabhi-pretya. C.S.Su, 26:12). But it should be in appropriate situation and with proper yukti (wisdom). Applying yukti Ayurvedic physician became able to transform natural materials, (plants or animal products or even materials) into easily administrable pharmaceutical preparations. Ultimately a whole new branch of Ayurveda emerged by the name of Bhaisajya Kalpana.
A drug material by which physician treat the diseases, or the material which is useful for medicinal purposes, is known as ‘bhesaja’. ‘Bhesaja’ and ‘bhaisajya’ are same or it is synonymous (bhesajameva bhaisajyam). ‘Kalpana’ denotes the meaning of planning (kalpanam yojanamityartham). Preparation for internal/external uses/administration (prayogah vividhah) or (sarire prayogartham) is known as ‘kalapana’. Without proper processing of material we cannot attain their therapeutic property. Hence processing of material is essential. Processing of material for therapeutic purposes is known as ‘Bhaisajya Kalpana’. In the developmental stream of civilization, drug manufacturing part of Ayurveda also developed. Scattered descriptions of various preparations are found available in Vedic literature. But in Samhita it can be seen in well arranged manner. Whole Ayurveda presented in eight folds known as Astanga Ayurveda’. Bhaisajya Kalpana is an art and science of preparing and dispensing medicine. Ancient scholars first able to modify the raw material into the form of swarasa, kalka, kwatha, hima and phanta are put under heading of pancavidha kasaya kalpana. Depending upon this, inn later period, many other formulations were developed to attain ready palatability, longer shelf life, low dose, quick action, easy dispensing and handling.
Earlier drug manufacturing was not separately taught. It was a part of Kayacikitsa. Physicians were managing/preparing/formulating and dispensing drugs by him for their day to day patients. But now the scenario has changed. Ayurvedic physicians engaged themselves mainly in diagnosis and treatment. They fully depends upon the market. Market is full of spurious and substandard drugs and with that success in treatment is doubtful. Otherwise Bhaisajya Kalpana subject included in Ayurvedic curriculum with the idea to trained the students in theory and practical of drug manufacturing. But due to lake of interest and facility this part became weaker and unable to create confidence in learners. For the success in Ayurvedic treatment Bhaisajya Kalpana part of leaning needs to encouraged.
I appreciate this intellectual and multidimensional work of Dr. Ravindra Angadi completed in the form of text book. Author’s intelligence and hard work reflecting in this his own write. In recent past few versions of Bhaisajya Kalpana became available in English. This book will offer a standard, important, useful and popular work on Bhaisajya Kalpana in English. Author has tried his level best in this book to cover the entire BAMS and MD syllabus of Bhaisajya Kalpana recently reviewed by the CCIM. I hope this work will be useful to the students, teachers, and researchers working in the field of Ayurveda and Bhaisajya Kalpana and certainly they will appreciate the way of presentation and its easy language. It is a creditable achievement of the author and I am sure that this book will definitely find a wider appreciation in the field of Ayurveda.
I congratulate the young and intelligent author for this literary contribution for the benefit of student community.
I am glad to introduce the work ‘A Textbook of Bhaisajya Kalpana Vijnana’ before the student fraternity of Ayurveda. Here a sincere attempt has been made with the idea of fulfilling the requirements of present day curriculum. The wide-ranging concepts of Bhaisajya Kalpana are dealt here in a rational and sincere manner, keeping in mind the interests of the UG and the PG scholars. This book may be categorized into three segments:
First segment is from chapter 1 to 4 which has History & the Fundamentals of this science.
Chapter 5 to 41 may be recognized as the second segment which has all the Pharmaceutical Preparations with their explanations and typical examples.
The third segment may be considered from chapter 42 to 50 which deals about the Modern Aspects of the pharmaceutical preparations.
First two segments are crucial for both UG & PG scholars. Third segment will be an additional knowledge for UG students but again essential for PG scholars. I have earnestly tried to keep the concepts simple to the possible extent for the better understanding of all the under graduate, post graduate and the diploma student fraternity of ayurveda. I sincerely believe and hope that this work will serve the needs of student community. I welcome the thought provoking suggestions for further elucidation of the concepts explained.
At the completion of the task of writing this book, I remain humbly grateful to all the individuals who have played a role in making it possible.

Flattered triples sales and grows internationally
Flattered’s design language has a clear Scandinavian heritage, classic expression and a relaxed approach to fashion. The shoes are made by hand in Spain, the rest is taken care of from Stockholm. In recent years, sales have picked up considerably and sales have more than tripled since 2019. Today, around seventy-five percent of purchases are made through Flattered’s own sales channels, and recently the US overtook Germany as the company’s largest market.
-We want the brand’s playful approach to fashion to permeate everything related to Flattered. From the experience in the web shop, to the smoothness of both delivery and return, says Gustav Lidén, CEO and one of the company’s founders.
With tripled sales in just a few years, several warehouses and multiple sales channels, the company needed to take a comprehensive grip on orders, inventory and purchases,
-We had been working with Fortnox for a long time and it worked well, but in order to take the next step, we needed to collect orders, inventory and purchases. The choice fell on Extend Commerce, which could also be integrated with Fortnox, says Gustav Lidén.
Spares streamlines logistics – and can grow further
Since 2015, Spares sells spare parts and accessories for mobile phones, tablets and other digital devices online. Both under its own name, but also via teknikdelar.se and the e-commerce platform batteriexperten.com. With an almost infinite number of variations and models, the warehouse is constantly changing.
Customers include both companies and individuals and now the aim is set on more customer groups, marketplaces and sales channels – and new opportunities to grow. One step in that direction is a close collaboration with Extend Commerce.
-We had a different business system before, but it didn’t work quite as we wanted. Then we started looking around and found Extend Commerce. On one hand, we liked the personal contact and expertise, and on the other hand, the product itself, says Talal Alshammari, CEO and founder of Spares Nordic.
When you change systems, you also need to look ahead, and think “where are we in X number of years?”, and ensure that the system can handle it. Now we’ve had the new business system for a while, and our first impression hasn’t changed.
Magnificent solutions and small details, since 1999.
Over the past twenty years, we have developed and refined our solutions, so we know that the difference lies in the details.

Today we have the market’s best system for managing orders, inventory and purchases.
Our customers are in different industries and have different conditions, but they have one thing in common: they place very high demands on us as a supplier. We’re happy about that, and we work every day to meet their demands.
Extend Commerce is run by the owners, and since we manage the entire process 100%, we have full control over development, implementation and support. We strive to make everything as standardized and scalable as possible. This means that you only pay for what you use and avoid large – and costly – external consulting projects.

PAX (6): Caroline, Dipstick, Funyun, Maytag AI, Nair, uga
We all arrived at our usual spot, only to find that there was no Q. As we were all headed back to our cars, one PAX stopped, looked back, and boldly stated, “I shall take the lead… on the warmup. Someone else got the rest? Cool.”
And off to the Dam we went.
SSH, Weed Pickers, Imperial Walkers, Windmills, arm circles, Michael Phelps
The Merkin Mile! 10 Merkins at each intersection on the way up, 10 squats at each intersection on the way down. Mary for the 6 at the boat launch, which included flutter kicks, American hammers, and dying cockroaches.
Mosey back to the parking lot for some coupon clipping. Colt 45’s X2, then short lap. Repeat, long lap. Repeat, short lap. Hey, we’re doing this a lot… maybe we should do something else? Thrusters X15, arm raises X15, American hammers X15, then short lap. Rinse, repeat. Ok, now what? Colt 45’s. X1 and then it was time.
Dipstick pulled out his Palm Pilot and read out the calendar:

Hey my friends – I’m starting off this workweek feeling quite relaxed after our nice long holiday weekend! On Friday night, we had Thanksgiving dinner take 2 – hooray for leftovers. It was just as delicious the second time around.
Thankfully we also had some pie and ice cream leftover. 🙂 Pumpkin pie = one of my absolute favorite desserts!
Matt and I took home the leftover turkey meat and the leftover turkey carcass, which was awesome. Homemade soup, our favorite! We made broth by boiling the turkey bones with veggies (celery, onion, carrot, and garlic) and water, then reducing to low heat and letting it simmer (covered) for about 6 hours.
Our house smelled amazing and the resulting broth was delicious – so rich and flavorful! After the 6 hour simmer, we strained the turkey bones and soft veggies from the pot, leaving just the broth. Rather than making a big soup we left the broth separate and sauteed some veggies in another separate pan, then just poured the broth over them in our bowls. This way the veggies/other ingredients won’t get soft and gross and we can do different variations of the soup!
On Saturday night we had one with carrots, celery, brown rice (leftover and already cooked), and turkey.
Last night we added some other veggies to the mix – zucchini and spinach as well!
As before we added the broth to a smaller pot of cooked veggies, which was just enough for the two of us.
Other leftover creations included a delicious wrap filled with leftover turkey, cranberry sauce, greens, avocado, and mustard. I made this again the next day but with hummus instead of mustard!
I was fighting off a bit of a cold and took Friday and Saturday as super low key rest days from exercise. By Sunday I was luckily feeling up for a run date with friends – hooray!
It was one of those perfect fall running days in DC – low 50’s and super sunny. My favorite! Also, I’m proud to say that Sokphal has now perfected the art of the running selfie.
We did one of our standard favorite DC loops. Felt so good to be out and about! I was surprised when we finished and I saw that we had done 7.2 miles – wow! Great run. I’m still loving this “I’m just training for life and not a race” phase, especially with this great running weather. 🙂
Speaking of – I created a fun new running tank I think you guys will love as much as I do! “Count Miles, Not Calories.” 🙂 It’s only available until December 6 so if you’re into it, here’s the link to buy it. It would make a great holiday gift for your favorite non-diet/intuitive eating runner! 🙂 Just an FYI if you are between sizes, I’d size down – it runs a little large.
Have a great day guys!

Dan had a clear call on his life but to do it he needed to give up his sales dreams. As he pushed into money more, the less it satisfied. In his words, "I was in complete rebellion against God." With multiple things collapsing around him, Dan had no choice but to turn back. The results were eye opening.
I was working my dream job in sales, and I was crushing it, when God called me to go to Bible college. I was doing so great in my career, and He asked me to leave it to study and become an intern and serve the church. So I went to God and said, "No. I'm not gonna leave my dream job just so that I can serve the church and make no money."
So God started to change things in my life. I started to find sales less enjoyable. My relationships at work started to change. My sales were going downhill. The more money-hungry I became, the more my sales went downhill. Other things were going wrong too, like my dad's dad, my grandfather, came down with cancer, which was awful, and my brother started to become incredibly suicidal.
My entire life had been perfect, and then within a few months it just crashed. I started to recognise the things that mattered in my life. Ultimately, it came down to God. I said, "Okay, Lord, I can't pay rent. I need to go see my parents and support my dad and support my brother."
Two weeks later, I moved back to Invercargill to study. As soon as I got there, I realised that there was a whole lot of reading that I needed to get done. Well, I had Irlens, which is this disease that you're kind of born with. Inside my eyes there are light receptors which go down this tunnel, and mine was damaged. So one eye receives and processes light faster than the other. As a result, the world is quite shaky and blurry.
Your mind can combat this, kind of like software changing everything, but it means that it uses a whole lot of brain power. So after 25 to 30 minutes of reading, it will put me to sleep. And I was trying to read all these leadership books that needed to get done so I could finish my studies. I remember one day, it was a Monday, I think it was my first week, I was sitting there crying. I was like, "I've given up my dream job. I just went through these awful few months of my life to sit here failing before I've even started." I just broke down in tears, going, "How can I? I can't do this."
We had a prayer meeting that evening and everyone was around in a circle praying for people. I said, "Oh, I kinda need my eyes healed because I can't pass my internship unless God heals my eyes." And then the young adult pastor put his hand on me and prayed. I don’t know what happened, but I just started crying, just absolutely broken in tears. I said, "Hand me a Bible,” and they put a Bible in front of me and it was the first time I could see the words clearly. I couldn't believe it.
So I went two weeks straight reading the whole New Testament. I couldn't stop. I could read fire hydrants now, the ones with small writing like, "Pull this tab." I’d never read that before. All these little signs I couldn’t read before, like ones in the office that had numbers to call, I could see those numbers now.
The strangest one was looking at carpet. Carpets are quite weird shapes and there's lots of little hairs making lots of textures, so it makes it quite shaky and blurry. For the first time, I saw carpets not move, which was unbelievable. I actually felt dizzy because it felt so normal going forward from there.
I couldn't believe it. It was such a strange moment. I was against God, in complete rebellion against Him, and He was still faithful to me. Even though I'd sworn off Him, hated Him, couldn't believe He'd put me through such a difficult trial, and for Him to show such faithfulness to me.
When you are going through such tough times, the wisest thing to do is just be honest with God and say, "I can't do this Lord. You need to be my strength to get through this." | <urn:uuid:45dca45d-a4f2-4a44-b6b7-316bf1d8d8bc> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.fantailstudios.com/watch/tby-s1-ep7 | 2023-09-23T18:11:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.992671 | 935 |

Meet the support team
The success of the Farjo Hair Institute is based not only on clinical excellence but also first class patient care. The latter would not be possible without the excellent work of our support staff who are key members of the Farjo team.
Together we ensure that every aspect of the Institute operates constantly to the highest standards with an unerring focus on patient satisfaction.
A former patient of Drs Farjo, Mick McHugh joined the Farjo Hair Institute in 1993 as a reference point patients can talk to. By 1995, he joined the Farjo team full-time as the patient liaison manager. Since then, Mick has become an integral part of the institute, dealing with patient enquiries and needs outside of the operating room.
Emma joined the set up in 2016 to ensure we continue the smooth running of our busy clinics. Emma’s may be the first voice you hear when you phone us, or the initial one to respond to your emails. Together with the rest of team, she provides support for our patients and staff alike to ensure an excellent patient journey
2016 marked Sara Roberts’ 20th year at Farjo and those of you that have visited us before will definitely know her friendly face! Sara joined Farjo in 1996 as a registered nurse and hair transplant technician.
As surgery manager, she is responsible for the smooth day-to-day running of the operating suites and the recruitment and ongoing training of the surgical staff. For over two decades, Sara has developed into a cornerstone of the practice and a true advocate of our methods and philosophy in her position as Surgery Manager.
In 2016, and in true Farjo tradition, she became the first European hair transplant nurse to chair the Surgical Assistants Program of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS) World Congress that took place in Las Vegas, USA. In 2018, she surpassed that by becoming the first European to be awarded the ISHRS ‘Distinguished Assistant Award’, the highest honour in our field. It took place in a glamorous ceremony at the World Congress in Hollywood, USA.
Arita has recently re-joined The Farjo Hair Institute team to lead our non-surgical procedures geared towards rejuvenating thinning hair. Arita spent three years with us as a Surgery Technician before leaving to complete a Physician Associate Master’s degree at the University of Manchester. We are delighted to now have her back on the team and playing an integral part of The Farjo Hair Institute’s non-surgical services.
Arita’s specialty interests include Regenera Activa’s Autologous Micrografting Technology (AMT), and Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) treatments. However, additional non-surgical treatments will be available from the team very soon. These treatments can also be provided as a top-up or enhancer for those who have undergone hair transplant surgery.
When asked what her favourite part of her role at The Farjo Hair Institute was, Arita said:
“I love working in such a niche area with a close-knit team. Everybody at the clinic plays an important role in our patients’ success stories and the collaborative approach helps set us apart. My role is very patient-focused, and I am lucky to work with people over a period of time that allows me to build strong relationships and to help make a difference to their lives.” | <urn:uuid:1f8b057f-5de4-4b28-bffb-c77271bbc7b2> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.farjo.com/about-farjo-hair-institute/our-support-team/ | 2023-09-23T18:25:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.954447 | 705 |
Although many reliable, trustworthy casinos are online, you will unavoidably run into the occasional fake. By making themselves appear authentic, fake internet casinos can steal money from customers. They will employ customer support teams and create websites that look fantastic. They may even obtain licensing from offshore nations, and their URL domain names will be SSL encrypted. So, how can you recognize a phony online casino? For some quick techniques to determine the legitimacy of a site, see how to recognize a fraudulent casino online.
Always research before depositing to distinguish a trustworthy casino from a fraudulent website. Start by perusing the website’s corporate data. Before gambling with huge bets, read reputable evaluations and try out little sums. And don’t just rely on one or two signs; check as many as possible. While a phony business may have scores of favorable online evaluations that have been purchased or are themselves created, a legitimate casino may have unfavorable ones. In light of this, here are five criteria to assist you in choosing whether a casino is worthwhile visiting.
1. The first tip for identifying a phony online casino is to seek a license.
Simple and quick rules. The first thing you should look at is a casino license. Don’t wager on an online casino’s website if it lacks an operating grant from a respected gambling commission. It is relatively easy to determine whether an online casino or sportsbook is licensed. You only need to check at the bottom of the page. You may see the licenses a casino holds by visiting one of the legitimate Casino Online Australia websites, which openly publish their license numbers and regulators.
You may be sure a company has been thoroughly inspected thanks to licenses granted by countries located all over the world. The Kahnawake tribe in Canada, Caribbean island nations like Antigua and Curacao, or Central American governments like Costa Rica issue licenses to US casinos. The UK, Alderney, Gibraltar, Malta, and Curacao are a few of the European countries that are regarded as having some of the most trustworthy casino regulators in the world.
Fake casinos are typically unregistered and uncontrolled, though this is sometimes the case. Why would they go through the process of getting licensed and run the danger of lawsuits when they are frequently only meant to last a few months? Stay away if the website’s footer needs to be completed and the casino appears to be operating without a license. But more than a license is required to ensure a casino is genuine.
2. Payment terms and procedures
Make a tiny investment in testing a platform’s withdrawal speed if you need more convincing. Certified third parties make the servers and payment processors used by reputable gambling sites, and money should be in your account reasonably promptly. It’s a scam if you can’t pay a modest amount or it takes more than a day to receive your money. Make sure the casino always makes payments on time.
Verify the casino’s acceptance of your preferred method of payment as well. A lack of deposit options can be cause for concern. A variety of money transfer mechanisms should be available, along with at least one credit or debit card. Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are typically favorable indicators. It is impossible to deceive many people using cryptocurrency wallets since they are immediately identified and banned from currency exchanges for engaging in harmful activities. So, even if you don’t intend to use cryptocurrency for betting or gambling, you should see if the platform supports it.
3. Game choice
Sports bookmakers do brisk business, particularly in games like baseball, basketball, and football. If someone is placing bets without a license, licensers are strict and swift to act, and they will quickly take down that website. Check if the website offers sports betting, even if you are only interested in spinners and card games. All trustworthy websites only offer sports betting if they have the necessary licenses. However, if they do, it indicates that they are a reliable platform. Additionally, if you’re interested in sports betting, examine what’s available at US-based online sportsbooks.
Slot machines should also be widely available, but the game developers must be reliable. A casino may use fraudulent software if it offers games from software providers you cannot find anywhere else. Always keep an eye out for a game’s payout %. You shouldn’t waste time playing slots with a payout rate below 94%. Online casinos in the USA will direct you to reputable websites so you may check out the games on offer.
And play some demo games. Real online gambling sites could provide a demo account or anything referred to as a “no deposit bonus.” In the hopes that you become a regular customer, they will let you try out games until you find ones you like. Additionally, you will be given some virtual money to use before you have to contribute any of your real money. If there isn’t a choice like that, the site is likely predatory and wants to take your money before you know you’ve been duped.
4. Always read internet reviews to identify a phony online casino.
Poor casinos are quickly reported online, and few people fabricate stories about their online gambling adventures. If 80% of the reviews state that a casino does not process withdrawals, steer clear because it is probably unsafe. Information about a casino’s failure to pay winnings, sudden modifications to the bonus’s requirements, or strange justifications for closing a player’s profitable account will spread swiftly online.
You may rely on several websites to read honest reviews of secure online casinos. A quick Google search may find the most popular review websites, and it’s a good idea to visit several of them. Some websites even permit visitors to leave feedback; if they are sincere, they won’t have anything to conceal. You can be sure that you have located a legal establishment if you find a casino operating for more than three (preferably five) years without receiving any complaints or payment problems.
5. A lack of certification for testing
The majority of respectable casinos want to show that their games are fair. After all, this will only draw in new gamblers. To accomplish this, specialized auditing firms like iGaming Labs, eCogra, and Technical Systems Testing repeatedly run the games. The deal’s randomness and the accuracy of the advertised returns (RTP%) are then shown using the data. On their homepage, legitimate operations will display badges with links that may be checked against their certificates. You can confirm that the audit is current by calling the testing business provided.
There is no such thing as a fair game when dealing with dishonest businesses. Refrain from squandering your money if you find yourself in a casino where the games need to be more suitable. Instead, pick trustworthy websites where all games are fair. You may read more about it here. You are choosing a Reputable Online Casino: Best Advice for Players. Once you have a solid platform, be sure to continue playing wisely. Set a reasonable limit for your bankroll and avoid going overboard. If you maintain your composure, you may take advantage of all the perks and perhaps win some hefty payouts. | <urn:uuid:5b9e35d3-836b-41b1-b31f-ae17ee41b8c3> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.femaleeyefilmfestival.com/how-to-recognize-a-fake-online-casino/ | 2023-09-23T16:37:57Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.936131 | 1,472 |
FEnEx CRC PhD Scholar
PhD Title: Direct ammonia reduction of iron ore
Narasimha graduated with a Bachelor of Technology in Chemical Engineering degree from Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University Hyderabad, India in 2017 and a Master of Technology in Chemical Engineering degree from Osmania University, India in 2019. He joined the Master of Professional Engineering degree at UWA in 2019 and later shifted to the PhD in Chemical and Process Engineering program in 2021.
Narasimha’s PhD research focuses on the use of NH3 as a reductant for direct reduction of iron ore for iron production, which currently uses coke derived from coking coal, resulting in significant CO2 emission. Ammonia (NH3) can be made from Australia’s rich renewable energy resources and if proven through my PhD research as a carbon-free reductant of iron ore reduction, can make an enormous contribution to decarbonising the iron and steel industry. Using both laboratory fixed-bed reactor technique and modelling tools, Narasimha will study the mechanisms and kinetics of NH3 – iron ore interactions and establish the reaction rate equations for reactor design and process development. | <urn:uuid:23640e0a-6683-4197-a271-7ea0977fe976> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.fenex.org.au/people/narasimha-naidu-nukala/ | 2023-09-23T18:05:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.920606 | 241 |
Quaker Cloud Program to be Phased Out by December 2023
After much research, work and discernment, the Quaker Cloud website-hosting program of Friends General Conference will be phased out by December 1, 2023. No additional Quaker Cloud clients will be accepted. To give adequate transition time, all meetings currently using Quaker Cloud have one year to back up their website content and/or migrate it to another hosting service. We are grateful to everyone who made this service possible and all the meetings who use it. In part, there are simply better alternatives to the Quaker Cloud now than when we launched the service in 2011.
For over a decade, Quaker Cloud has served as an important outreach and engagement tool for Friends meetings and other Quaker entities of all sizes. FGC has endeavored to offer Quaker Cloud as a simple and unified way for Friends to share information about community activities.
As site administrators were made aware in June 2022 FGC was not able to initiate a content migration of Quaker Cloud sites from Drupal to WordPress as planned. The expense and complexity of the migration would have cost FGC over $100,000 and potentially hundreds of hours of staff time.
In addition to this urgent concern was a chronic concern: advancements in web hosting technology over that period of time have outpaced FGC’s staff, volunteer, and financial capacity to continue hosting this program. In other words, there are now many more economical and simple website platforms for meetings to use now than existed when Quaker Cloud was originally launched.
Considering the potential unplanned expenses of a complicated content migration, the existence of easy-to-use and inexpensive alternatives for meetings, and appreciating that FGC has a goal of expanding capacity for communication and connection through new initiatives, FGC staff and volunteers recommended that Quaker Cloud is phased out as a program over the next 12 months, with final closure occurring December 2023. Central Committee (FGC’s governing body) agreed with this recommendation at the October 2022 annual meeting.
This decision may still come as a surprise to meetings and website admins. Here we offer a deeper dive into this decision.
FGC would like for you to know that we appreciate immensely every meeting who has been part of the Quaker Cloud community, and we welcome you to avail yourself of the resources that FGC plans to roll out for you in the coming months, namely:
- A WordPress theme that you may use for your new site template, which is scheduled to be available by February 2023.
- Educational workshops hosted by our website partners to guide you through the process of site migration, available after the roll-out of the new theme.
- A peer-to-peer network of Quaker website administrators and social media managers that will provide support and best practices between one another, coming Spring 2023.
FGC has already created a resource for meetings desiring a web presence.
As always, FGC offers a free Quaker Finder page for any North American Quaker meeting desiring a presence. Please visit Quaker Finder to search for and update your meeting’s existing entry. (If you cannot locate your meeting’s page, please click the button to start a new page.)
We appreciate the patience of all those who participated in Quaker Cloud from its inception to its existence today. We are hopeful that together, we can create a community of Friends who are invested in connecting and communicating with one another, with seekers, and with the general public through websites, social media, and tools that FGC offers today and in the future. | <urn:uuid:48788d34-eb79-4937-884d-20e1ee1dd6e4> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.fgcquaker.org/2022/11/14/quaker-cloud-phase-out/ | 2023-09-23T18:20:03Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.955222 | 734 |

Rehome a Pet
Five Acres is proud to partner with Adopt-a-Pet.
Five Acres is proud to partner with Adopt-a-Pet to support a new rehoming process that helps community members find new homes for their pets, rather than needing to surrender them to a shelter. Here are the benefits of rehoming your pet:
No one knows your pet better than you, so you know what type of home is best for them! When you look for a new home for your animal, you’ll be able to provide medical history, any quirks or behaviors exhibited, what your pet likes and dislikes, and anything that is going to make a new home successful.
The shelter is scary and stressful for animals. There are so many unfamiliar sounds, smells, and situations that can all make animals feel on-edge and maybe even lash out, making it harder to be adopted.
Rehoming your pet also saves space in the shelter. We get calls everyday from other rescues asking if we can take in animals from them. The more animals we have to take in from homes, the less we can say “yes” to these rescue partners.
Keeping pets in homes and out of the shelters not only helps that pet, but it very well may help save the life of another animal in need!
When you choose to rehome your pet through Adopt-a-Pet there is no fee, and applications are managed by the qualified staff at Adopt-a-Pet. You will be able then to see the applications and possibly meet the adopters. Adopt-a-Pet also has many resources to be able to help you through this big decision. | <urn:uuid:8292d53e-13d2-4bc3-a9d0-8f0df5b8dd51> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.fiveacresanimalshelter.org/rehome-a-pet/ | 2023-09-23T17:39:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.966478 | 350 |

PostTHE 10 STEPS FOR A SUCCESSFUL PROJECT
Medicus is an orthopedic laboratory that manufactures prosthetics and orthotics. In 2016, in the beginning, stages of relocating its production facilities, the Medicus management team called on Sensei Groupe-Conseil to help them create the development plan and assess their needs for the new plant.
Gino St-Pierre, the Sensei’s organizational performance consultant, would have to first focus on the company’s current workstations. These standard lean manufacturing workstations, made of steel and wood, were quite restrictive as they were costly and time-consuming to modify. Read on to discover the reasons why Medicus chose the modular system to optimize its productivity and improve the ergonomics in its plant.
Estimated reading time: 3 minutes
One of the main challenges with regards to the workstations was to manage company growth when the floor layout had to be reconfigured. Medicus was limited in its choices and processes.
This practice was costly and time-consuming. Since the workstations were far from optimized, the employees’ tools and equipment were scattered all over the place. That entailed the staff having to repeatedlly go to different areas to get the material required to accomplish their tasks. It became imperative to reduce movement waste.
Our equipment could now evolve according to the company’s needs instead of having to buy new workstations.
Christian Thiffault, Director of the production center at Medicus
By working in-depth with the Flexpipe product, the maintenance employee has first-hand knowledge of the vast majority of the parts and can suggest various options and find solutions to problems.The production employee can thus concentrate 100% on his main task.
When a company relies on its staff’s creativity, it is then possible to reduce the MUDAs (non-added value tasks) and achieve greater overall performance. An industrial maintenance employee can play an important role when it comes to improving the quality of a company’s production management.
Since implementing Flexpipe in 2018, over 60 workstations, tables, and need-specific modifications have been created. Changes that previously took weeks are now made in less than a day, because the only basic tools required are an Allen key and a pipe cutter.
The flexibility of Flexpipe components has doubled production capacity and significantly reduced labor movement. Each person carries out his duties at his workstation, and if sometinhg impedes his productivity, maintenance will assist in finding a solution to the problem.
When implementing a modular system, it is highly beneficial to tap the expertise of an in-house maintenanceemployee. This person will be able to change existing structures and manage Flexpipe part inventory. Additionally, he can draw designs and pitch ideas to create new ones.
Getting him involved is key for small and large business alike. As the maintenance employee works with the assemblers, he becomes the go-to source to zero in on wastes and potential improvements regarding:
Flexpipe structures are now prevalent at the Medicus manufacturing plant. Reconfiguring workstations has allowed employees to have all the equipment they require within reach to accomplish their tasks. As such, they can do their work far more simply and quickly. Another major win of the process is that employee satisfaction has soared. When listening to employees’ needs, it’s much easier to create an inviting and efficient work environment! | <urn:uuid:8f120c05-3bc3-4914-ad99-6458f3f64b7a> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.flexpipeinc.com/us_en/case_study/maintenance-employee-influence-productivity-sme/ | 2023-09-23T16:39:32Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.958449 | 751 |

Noble M600 Supercar Test Drive
Jeremy Clarkson heads out on to the Top Gear test track in a new British supercar, the sensationally fast (and expensive) Noble M600.
The M600 has a Volvo-based Yamaha 4.4-liter DOHC twin-turbo V8 producing 650 HP with a top speed of 225 mph.
The 2,800 pound 1,250 kg supercar can accelerate from 0-62 mph in 3 seconds flat and require only another 3 seconds to achieve 100 mph.
It competes in the same category as the Ferrari F430.
The British supercar will cost around £200,000. Only 50 will be made annually.
The Noble posted an impressive time of 1:17.7 around the Top Gear Test Track with The Stig behind the wheel.
The M600 was the fourth-fastest behind the Gumpert Apollo, Ascari KZ A10 and Koenigsegg CCX.
It beat the Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron and the Pagani Zonda Roadster F in lap times around the Top Gear test track.

Changes in condominium association laws that were recently enacted with an aim to curb fraud in associations seem to have had a strong impact in increasing the general awareness of the problems facing Florida condo communities. A few major media outlets have followed up on the news of the law with reports about arrests involving South Florida associations.
Several months ago the Miami Herald reported that the administrator of an Aventura condominium named Admirals Port had been arrested on charges of accepting thousands of dollars in bribes and stealing cash from the building’s laundry machines. Donovan Staley was charged with organized fraud, grand theft and the use of a phone to plan a crime, and he could face up to five years in prison.
“Donovan Staley abused the trust of the condo directors and owners to line his own pockets,” said State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle at a news conference at the time. “We want the community to know that the new law is going to make a difference.”
The Herald article indicates that authorities believe Staley asked an electrical firm working in the building to add $6,000 to the invoice and remit it to him in exchange for the community’s future business. There is also video of Staley allegedly taking money out of the community’s laundry machines, from which authorities say he stole more than $3,000. (Click here to read the article and watch the video of the state attorney’s press conference in the newspaper’s website).
A case involving the theft of valuables from a Singer Island condominium by one of the property’s maintenance employees was recently covered by the Fox television network affiliate for the Palm Beaches and Treasure Coast. Police tracked the unit owner’s gold bracelet engraved with his name and discovered that it had been pawned by Steven Kos, who was a maintenance worker with access to the keys for the units at the East Pointe Condominiums where the theft occurred. In addition to the bracelet, police also say that Kos pawned additional jewelry and other items from the theft at local pawn shops, and he has been charged with burglary, grand theft and six counts of dealing in stolen property. (Click here to read the report in the station’s website).
These recent cases should serve as a reminder to Florida community associations of the level of safeguards and vigilance that must be put in place in order to help to prevent theft, fraud and abuse by association and management employees. In addition to the implementation of security and administrative protocols that help associations to avoid becoming a victim, the criminal penalties prescribed by the state’s new condo fraud law have now made associations better equipped to engage law enforcement than ever before. | <urn:uuid:0a649266-d7fd-4872-bccb-f442f4895df4> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.floridahoalawyerblog.com/condominium-workers-charged-theft-wake-new-fraud-law/ | 2023-09-23T16:59:32Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.968023 | 551 |
Eric Larson and Valerie Talbot aim to share their aviation experiences with the masses through their popular YouTube channel, Skyline Baron Pilot. The channel follows the two pilots as they fly their Beechcraft Baron B58TC around the southeastern U.S. as well as the Caribbean.
Eric was the first one of the pair to learn how to fly and similarly was the first who wanted to live at a residential airpark. He spent a considerable amount of effort trying to get into the airpark lifestyle, finally breaking the barrier in 2013.
Their new home at Antiquers Aerodrome (FD08) in Delray Beach, Florida, has proved to be a great base of operations for the married couple’s various flying memories.
“I grew up about two miles from the airport, but never knew it existed because I wasn’t a pilot. I really wasn’t looking for an airport community, but then I became a pilot. While I was looking at the sectional charts, I wondered what ‘PVT’ meant. After learning that it meant private, I drove over and checked out the airport,” Eric says.
“It’s a gated community, so I would go there to wait for someone to let me in. Once I was in, I would go and talk to random people—asking how I could get a house in there. I spent a lot of time at the airport, expressing my interest in moving there. That’s how it happens a lot at airparks, because there’s not often a lot of homes that go up for sale. I got through the gate and became acquainted with some board members and just about every day I would come in asking, ‘has anyone passed away…is anyone moving…is anything happening?’ I was clearly a nuisance.”
After about nine months of persistence, Eric finally caught a realtor that was putting a for sale sign in a front yard. Eager that something finally became available, he immediately jumped out of his car, started a conversation, and made a deal to buy the house within a day.
According to the couple, the lifestyle of living at a fly-in community has been everything they thought it would be and more. They both claim that their lives would be markedly different if they lived in a “normal” neighborhood.
“You want to be 100 percent immersed in aviation living here. You want to be a pilot living in a community like this, or an aviation enthusiast. If you didn’t like aviation, living at an airpark wouldn’t have the same energy. It wouldn’t have the same appeal. And it wouldn’t have the magic that it does. I say it a lot, but it really is magic,” Eric stated.
A lot of this magic is the result of how easy it is for the two to enjoy one of their premier shared interests, flying. As Aviation Ambassadors for The Bahamas, it’s no surprise that the country is a frequent destination of the two.
“We can fly for only 20, 25 minutes and we are in The Bahamas,” says Valerie. “It is really convenient to be able to fly right from our backyard directly there. We go to Freeport a lot. Grand Bahama—where Freeport is located—is one of the biggest islands, and that’s one of our main ‘home’ islands, we would call it. We know more people there than we do anywhere else in the country, as of now. Eric started going there years, years, and years ago, first by boat as a kid.”
A few years ago, they sought to replicate their positive experience at Antiquers Aerodrome by purchasing a second home at an airpark in northeast Georgia. Buying the hangar home was Valerie’s idea this time.
“Eric actually didn’t want to purchase a home at Heaven’s Landing (GE99), at first,” she says. “Every single time I would stop at their booth at an airshow, I would be drawn by the beauty of the airpark, its homes, and the area where it’s located. I kept telling Eric that ‘we have to go there; we have to go there!’ In the meantime, I got my pilot license and told Eric that this would be a great place to escape from the heat and see beautiful mountain scenery. I just craved that vision.
“One day our instructor had a convention in Nashville, and I wanted to get some cross-country time in the Baron,” she continues. “It worked out to where I would be able to fly there with him and went to Heaven’s Landing as a detour. I told Eric that I had planned the flight and that I had booked a tour with Mike [Ciochetti], the airpark’s developer]. Well, Eric was blown away and thought it was just amazing there. We came back from our trip and Eric began researching the community even more. Maybe six months later, we narrowed it down to a piece of land that we made an offer on. It took me a while to finally convince him and he had to see it firsthand before I was able to.”
Thinking about their shared fly-in community experiences, Eric and Valerie agree on three things that are irreplicable about living at an airpark.
- When your aircraft is your hangared at your home, you’re only seconds from the runway.
- The couple’s mechanic performs their Baron’s annuals and other maintenance at their home.
- An offsite hangar is an unnecessary expense when you have a hangar home.
- 100LL is not marked up at Antiquers, so that saves the couple a considerable amount of money on fuel.
- Being around like-minded pilots and aviation enthusiasts is the best part about living at an airpark, Eric and Valerie contend.
Routinely rubbing elbows with other pilots often leads to impromptu hangar conversations. Eric notes that there are some really interesting aviators that they are fortunate to call their neighbors.
“There are legends of aviation that live in both communities. I mean straight up legends,” he says. “Not to mention there are famous individuals and those who have done a lot for civilization and humankind. There are astronauts, mechanics, war heroes, explorers, military pilots, and other amazing humans. Almost every home is like an encyclopedia of aviation knowledge. We have brought dozens of other pilots to the communities to see them. We give them tours of the neighborhoods and they are blown away.”
“Everyday living here it’s hearing different stories from neighbors,” he continues. “It’s anything from ‘my Cub isn’t running right,’ to ‘I was in Egypt or New York City yesterday.’ A lot of residents have jet-type aircraft, so you hear world stories daily from friends—which is really cool to have over a beer or iced tea. They will knock you on the floor with the stories that you tell. And it’s not a unicorn thing every once in a while, it’s every time!”
Just how the couple has found that curating a YouTube channel has amplified their voice, living at an airpark also allows them to more readily share their flying experiences.
“Everything we do, almost every day, involves aviation. And that’s because we live at an airport. You get to learn more about airplanes this way. I could talk about it for a week and it’s great to be able to share aviation with others. Even when a new neighbor comes in, it’s so cool learning about their journey and where they come from. There’s a lot of sharing between all of us,” Eric concludes.
Reach out to the flying couple if interested in visiting either airpark and they would be more than willing to assist: [email protected] | <urn:uuid:04536b64-c6b8-4921-9d16-57e70a733dea> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.flyingmag.com/finding-a-home-for-a-beechcraft-baron/ | 2023-09-23T18:59:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.977535 | 1,703 |
by Nina Sabin - Travel
Most of our trips so far from Saudi have been to the European and Asian countries. We traveled a couple of times in the Middle East. During this next adventure, we drove from Saudi Arabia to UAE and Oman. We had nine days to cover about 1120 km (700 miles).
Our trip began with a 10-hour journey from our home in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia to Al Ain, UAE. When driving in the Middle East, you need to make sure your vehicle is up-to-date with fluids and maintenance. Off of our compound there is literally a desert with maybe a few towns along the way. You don’t want your car to overheat while driving in the desert. The most important rule when driving - don’t go alone. Always caravan with at least another car in case you break-down or have an accident. You don’t want to be suck in an area that is desolate.
It’s always challenging to find a bathroom in the Middle East or if you do find one is it worth using it. All the bathrooms are holes in the ground they call hammam (eastern toilet). This may be easy for guys to use, but it is a much more challenging experience for females. The ones in the gas stations are even worse than you can imagine, most people would rather go outside than use those bathrooms. We were fortunate as our friends traveling with us had a portable commode with them.
Our day wasn’t over after the 10-hour drive. We then had a two-hour process to go through the border. Needless to say it was a long day and we were tired.
We chose to go to Al Ain to help with Vacation Bible School for the children of the missionaries that are reaching out to the people of the Middle East. Once a year the missionaries get together for a group gathering and some “R and R”, while their children are being cared for. John was in charge of helping with the games and sports, and I helped with the bible stories and crafts.
We also had time to explore Al Ain. Al Ain is an oasis city and the second largest in the emirate of Abu Dhabi. One amazing site is Jabel Hafeet. It stands 1,200 meters tall and is completely barren. We took a winding road to the summit. We enjoyed seeing the amazing panoramic views from the observation spot of the countryside. There were also numerous caves and sites of archaeological excavations to explore.
You can’t drive around the Middle East without seeing livestock and camels. In one car we saw a lamb, cow, and chicken. We called that mixed grill, which is a popular dish served throughout the Middle East. It is usually served as pieces of meat on a plate with Arabic bread and not in the bed of a truck.
On our fifth day of our trip, we left Al Ain to travel to Nizwa, Oman. This was about a 100 km (62 miles) of driving. Once again we had to go across the border. This was the year 2004 and the strangest thing we found was they did a retinal scan. This is the one and only time in all of our travels that we actually had to do a retinal scan to cross a border.
While we were waiting at the border we noticed the ladies in Oman have a very different looking veil than in Saudi. Saudi women’s veils (niqabs) are made of black silky or cotton material and have slits for the eyes. In Oman the ladies wear a gold mask (burqa) that is made out of metallic material and covers the lower part of the face. They believe it enhances a woman’s beauty.
The hotel we stayed at Oman had traditional Middle Eastern décor. Pillows to sit on instead of chairs seemed to make the experience more authentic.
Nizwa is known as an important area with outstanding Islamic architecture located in the interior of Oman. Jebel Akhdar is a mountain range that you can see from anywhere in the city. It is impressive and majestic.
Omanis gave Nizwa the nickname 'Centre of Islam' because it was the historical residence for several schools of Islamic jurisprudence. Nizwa was among the first Omanis cities to embrace Islam. The main landmark of the city is the large blue-domed mosque.
Since it was our oldest daughter’s eighth birthday, we bought a cake at a local bakery. We have found that Middle East cakes look amazing, but usually taste like cardboard. We found out they don’t use oil to make the cakes moist.
On the drive back to Saudi, I had the opportunity to drive on the UAE roads. Woman at that time could not drive in Saudi, so it was very exciting for me to be able to drive on the Middle Eastern roads.
If you want to travel to UAE or Oman, buy our itinerary to learn more.

Tax-Loss Harvesting: A Strategy for Your IRA Investments
Maximize Your Retirement Savings Potential
Have you ever wondered how to make the most out of your IRA investments while minimizing your tax burden? Tax-loss harvesting might be the answer you've been looking for. This strategy can enhance your overall investment returns and help you build a more secure retirement nest egg. Read on to learn how tax-loss harvesting can play an essential role in optimizing your IRA investments for a more comfortable retirement.
What is Tax-Loss Harvesting?
Tax-loss harvesting is an investment strategy that involves selling an investment that has declined in value, thereby realizing a capital loss. This loss can then be used to offset any capital gains taxes you might owe on other investments, effectively reducing your overall tax liability. Tax-loss harvesting can be a powerful tool in your arsenal, especially for retirement investors seeking to minimize their tax burden and maximize their long-term growth potential.
Tax-Loss Harvesting and Your IRA Investments
While tax-loss harvesting is commonly applied to taxable investment accounts, it can also be a useful strategy for your IRA investments. Here's how it works:
- Identify your underperforming investments: The first step in tax-loss harvesting is identifying the investments in your IRA that have declined in value. These losses, once realized, can be used to offset any capital gains taxes you might owe on other investments.
- Sell the underperforming investments: Once you've identified the losing investments, sell them to realize the capital loss. This is the key step in tax-loss harvesting that allows you to take advantage of the tax benefits.
- Reinvest the proceeds: After selling the underperforming investments, you'll want to reinvest the proceeds into a different, but similar, investment. This will help you maintain your overall investment strategy and risk profile while benefiting from the tax savings.
- Offset capital gains: The realized capital loss can be used to offset any capital gains taxes you might owe on other investments. This is the primary benefit of tax-loss harvesting, as it helps reduce your overall tax liability.
The Benefits of Tax-Loss Harvesting for Retirement Investors
Implementing tax-loss harvesting within your IRA investment strategy can provide several key benefits, including:
- Tax savings: The most significant advantage of tax-loss harvesting is the potential tax savings. By realizing capital losses, you can offset capital gains taxes on other investments, effectively reducing your overall tax liability.
- Enhanced investment returns: By reducing your tax burden, tax-loss harvesting can help enhance your overall investment returns. This can lead to a more substantial retirement nest egg over the long term.
- Portfolio rebalancing: Tax-loss harvesting can also serve as an opportunity to rebalance your portfolio. As you sell underperforming investments and reinvest the proceeds, you can adjust your portfolio's asset allocation to better align with your long-term investment goals and risk tolerance.
- Risk management: Implementing tax-loss harvesting can help you manage risk within your IRA investments. By selling underperforming assets and reinvesting the proceeds into similar investments, you can maintain your desired risk profile while benefiting from tax savings.
Harvesting a Brighter Financial Future
In conclusion, tax-loss harvesting can be an effective strategy for optimizing your IRA investments and maximizing your retirement savings potential. By implementing this approach, you can benefit from tax savings, enhanced investment returns, and improved risk management. As a retirement investor, it's crucial to explore all available strategies to ensure a secure and comfortable financial future. Consider incorporating tax-loss harvesting into your IRA investment plan and reap the rewards of a savvy investment approach.

Garlic-Parmesan Chicken Wing Appetizer
- Ready In:
- Boil the wings for approximately a half hour to cook off all the fat.
- Drain in a colander and rinse off any remaining fat particles.
- In a food processor, combine the 3 heads of garlic, olive oil and Tabasco sauce.
- Puree until smooth.
- In a dish combine the cheese, breadcrumbs and pepper.
- Mix well.
- Dunk the cooked wings into the garlic puree and then immediately into the dry mixture to coat.
- Place in a shallow baking dish.
- Repeat until all wings are coated.
- Bake in 425 degree oven for 35 minutes. This will make them crunchy and brown.
- Check them at approximately 25 minutes, depending on the size of the wings they may already be done and you don't want the breading to burn.
- Remember, they are already cooked since they were boiled first so once the crust is browned they can be taken out.
- Every oven varies as does the chicken size so watch them carefully.
- Once they burn they don't taste the same. Enjoy!
- These will keep overnight if you want to make them a day ahead. I bread them and then put them in the fridge. This way all I need to do is pop them in the oven once my guests arrive. They take approximately 45 minutes if I make them this way, but check them at 30 minutes again to be safe.

Mmm... garlic. If you really like garlic, you will love these. If you don't or just think it is okay, try a different recipe, it is very, very strong and I could even smell the garlic in the stairwell outside my apartment. :D As I love garlic, I loved these. I halved the recipe because they are only 2 of us, but the halved amounts worked out just right for the chicken I had with the puree and breading mix amounts. I like the idea of using it for drumsticks too, I will have to give that a try sometime. I have done a similar recipe with melted butter and drumsticks (without the garlic) so I think it would work out well. Thanks for sharing! Made for PAC Spring 2014.
These crunchy wings went over very well at my house. I just hate that I couldn't reuse the garlic puree, as there was so much left of it (I only used 2 whole bulbs). I wonder if I could let them sit overnight in the puree, then bread them right before baking? Or maybe skip the breading altogether, and boil the remaining puree to make a sauce? Also, I used a package of 22 wings, and there was enough breading for all of them. Will definitely try again. Thanks for the posting!

You may have lofty goals for retirement, like getting to travel the world. Or maybe your goals are more modest -- you simply want the option to live in a comfortable home, pursue hobbies, and spend time with loved ones.
No matter what your retirement plans look like, a solid nest egg could make them possible. And the good news is that you don't need to dump hundreds of thousands of dollars into your 401(k) or IRA to get there. These three moves, in fact, could turn $100,000 in contributions into $1 million by the time your senior years roll around.
1. Buy dividend stocks
Dividend stocks offer two opportunities to make money. First, there's share price appreciation. Over time, the value of your stocks can grow, leaving you with more wealth to enjoy.
But also, the dividends you receive from those stocks represent money you can, and should, reinvest from year to year. Doing that will help you grow even more wealth -- without having to lift a finger (this especially holds true if you set up your dividends to get reinvested automatically).
2. Buy index funds
Index funds are passively managed funds whose goal is to match the performance of different benchmarks. And while they won't be your ticket to beating the market, they could help you generate some pretty strong returns in your IRA or 401(k).
Another perk of index funds? They take the guesswork out of investing. If you're not all that skilled in analyzing individual stocks, you don't have to sweat it. Index funds effectively let you own bunches of stocks at a time, only without having to do much research. They also lend to diversification, which is an important thing on the road to growing wealth.
3. Invest in real estate
As mentioned, it's a good idea to branch out in your portfolio. And real estate could be your ticket to doing just that.
You can't go and invest your IRA in an income property (you can buy one separately, but that assumes you have the capital and appetite for risk). But what you can do is load up on REITs, or real estate investment trusts.
REITs are companies that operate different properties and derive revenue from tenants. What's great about REITs is that they're required to pay a minimum of 90% of their taxable income to shareholders as dividends. As such, those dividends tend to be generous.
But also, the value of REIT shares can rise over time -- especially if you put your money into growth-driven sectors. And that could leave you very wealthy over a longer investment window.
Get ready to enjoy your dream retirement
You may have the goal of retiring with $1 million -- or more. But that doesn't mean you have to contribute $1 million to your retirement account. All you really need to do is choose your investments wisely and stay invested over multiple decades. If you stick to that plan, you may be floored by the amount of money you end up accumulating. | <urn:uuid:00c78848-f3e6-40a4-a3f8-7d7ef4ec5f12> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/04/10/3-ways-to-grow-100000-into-1-million-for-retiremen/ | 2023-09-23T19:16:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.961288 | 616 |
In a free-wheeling interview with Audi, Virat Kohli bats his views off the cuff while we bowl a couple of googlies at him. He shares stories about his crazy friends, the most adrenaline pumping moments he’s had off the field, in his Audi, everything he loves about driving, and the career he would have chosen if he wasn’t this great at Cricket. Catch the skipper at his candid best.
Q: What is the one silly thing you did with your friends recently?Virat:
My friends seem to do silly things all the time. In fact, I would have to sit down and think of the times they did something sensible. On a daily basis, they are talking about the funny things they’ve done and all the nonsensical things that happen around them. They hardly talk about anything constructive or serious. So I can’t pin-point anything. They are all very silly and I think we should get them to do a video as well, to get some sensible things out of them. That will be something new!
Q: Favourite car memory?Virat:
I remember a really funny incident. Back in 2012, I took my sister out in my R8 which I had just got. She had no idea how powerful this car was. When I told her the drive was going to be different from anything she had experienced, she didn’t believe me. I deliberately drove up to a longish road and when it was clear, I stepped on the gas. We could really feel that pull of the car and she bawled out, “I felt like everything is moving in my stomach,” and she was almost crying. I still remember that I just couldn’t stop laughing. She couldn’t control what she was feeling and she had tears in her eyes after feeling all that force of the car pulling through. That, for me, is the best car memory that I have.
Q: If you could pick another profession other than cricket, what would it be?Virat:
I don’t know but maybe I would be a stylist. I like looking for good clothes and I like combining clothes in my own head. I have understood over the years, what would look good with a particular piece of clothing. Tops and trousers and jeans- combining all of them with jackets and stuff like that. So maybe I would try my hand at being a stylist.
Q: What is your guilty pleasure as far as a car is concerned?Virat:
With my hectic schedule, I rarely get to do more than drive into the city and back home. So I really look forward to times when it’s not going to be so hectic and I can enjoy driving and listening to good music, without being recognised. So I crave to just be able to go on a normal drive, which is longer than my usual, daily travel distance, and to enjoy and feel the car and just really relax. I think that’s really quite relaxing.

Releasing the list of candidates for the polls slated to be held in November-December, BRS president and Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao said that development will be the only agenda for the party.
KCR, who is confident of BRS winning another term in the new state, promised that under BRS, Telangana will march ahead on the path of development and reach new heights.
“For other political parties, elections are a game but for BRS it is a task,” he said after releasing the list at 2.38 p.m., the auspicious time set by ‘pandits’.
KCR made it clear that BRS is going alone in the elections.
“The question is irrelevant after the release of the list,” he quipped when asked if BRS would have an alliance with the CPI and CPI-M.
The BRS chief, however, said Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM) will remain a friendly party for BRS.
“They have been our friendly party since 2014 and our friendship will continue,” he said.
The BRS will be fielding candidates in seven seats held by MIM in Hyderabad but this will be a friendly contest.
KCR, who exuded confidence that BRS will retain power by winning 95-105 Assembly seats in 119-member Assembly, also predicted that BRS and MIM will win all 29 seats in Hyderabad and old Rangareddy districts.
KCR was confident that people of Telangana will bless BRS with another mandate to steer the state on the path of progress.
He said Telangana state made rapid strides in a short span of time after its formation. The per capita income has increased from 1.20 lakh to Rs 3.12 lakh, surpassing large and developed states like Gujarat, Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu.
KCR pointed out that Telangana also stands number one in the country in per capita power consumption and it is the only state providing 24 hours quality power to all sectors.
He appealed to the people to also back BRS to make a clean sweep in Lok Sabha elections.
He exuded confidence that along with MIM (Hyderabad seat), BRS will bag all 17 seats.
When asked about BJP exuding confidence of coming to power in Telangana, he called it a joke of the century. To another query, KCR said the Karnataka elections results have no relevance to Telangana.
“People are now realising what is happening in Karnataka. There are power cuts even in Bengaluru which we don’t expect. The Congress party has gone back on the election promises,” he said.
KCR recalled that in the 2018 elections, Congress party in Telangana had promised to waive farm loans up to Rs.2 lakh.
“We had said that this is not practical. We promised to waive farm loans of Rs 1 lakh. People trusted us. The same will happen now,” he said.
The BRS chief also ridiculed the Congress party over its promise to increase social security pensions to Rs 4,000 per month and recalled that when in power it was paying only Rs 200.
He also hinted that the government may increase the pension amount. He defended the announcements being made by the government ahead of the elections.
“We are not math. We are a political party and will avail all facilities which are available, till the last minute,” he said. | <urn:uuid:301cffe6-eab8-4523-b844-ed26195c08d5> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.forevernews.in/politics/telangana-polls-brs-to-declare-manifesto-on-oct-16-829620 | 2023-09-23T18:31:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.964367 | 749 |
My husband thinks it would be a great concept if I began wanting into creating my very own bakery. Ginger oil manufacturing is one of the most worthwhile meals processing business that may be began as small scale foundation also. I actually like the best way all of the fashions featured in Extra are women which are actually over 40 (not twenty-somethings to remind you that you simply’re not so young anymore). Completely different licenses and permission is required in initiating microbrewery business. I loved your style suggestions for women over 50. You clearly know a lot about vogue.
Or maybe do it the old school way with a bunch of magazines and clip out each article or commercial that may suggest a enterprise thought to you. Different necessary substances, such as enterprise abilities, business planning, best authorized structure choices, methods (advertising, promoting, promoting, pricing, social media and so on), are important for your success. If you love what you do, your ardour to your dream enterprise will shine by. Your idea should create value in order for individuals to purchase it, thus producing income for your business to be sustainable. Latex rubber thread manufacturing is likely one of the most worthwhile rubber business ideas that may be initiated as small scale basis additionally. Others have been when faculty students came residence and there was an additional load, after medical procedures, after holidays.
Having met with business homeowners both regionally and internationally, I bring recent ideas that will help you generate extra revenue. The other consideration: I famous you’re hoping to start a household quickly…that in itself is a full time job, so watch the timing of new business & new child hitting on the identical time. To be able to make the precise adjustments to position your self and grab your share of the market, you have to have a look at client spending in the submit-Great-Recession years and put together to tailor your online business accordingly. Maybe you haven’t any concept what enterprise you’d take pleasure in and nothing really jumps out at you. Most so-called new ideas are some kind of twist on or extension of an current thought. Visit a neighborhood retailer and take a look at the various product ideas that people got here up with to fill those store cabinets. But there’s nothing mundane about making numerous money and building a successful enterprise.
Beginning a brand new enterprise will be daunting I know, especially in case you have been out of the job marketplace for some time. Go visit your native chamber of commerce, or the native Small Enterprise Administration office and/or the town corridor office that handles business registration. Hundreds of thousands of business homeowners profit by selling routine unglamorous companies, equivalent to window washing, car restore, sandwich making, constructing upkeep, home cleansing, and plumbing.
I undoubtedly like your idea of beginning at residence and utilizing the net as a software to help develop a clientele, that would be something I might simply do once I’ve done extra research on competitors, and beginning a enterprise typically. I would encourage you to give this a attempt if you wish to earn some extra cash and start to build your individual enterprise. Please notice that this checklist of seasonal business ideas is organized on the idea that you simply live in a 4 season temperate climate within the Northern Hemisphere. You do not need a completely new thought to succeed; in truth, there are only a few completely new ideas. | <urn:uuid:a7e311c4-1873-4c01-96cc-8d7fb28355f1> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.forex-asset-management.com/reward-suggestions-for-law-grads-and-bar-examination-takers.html | 2023-09-23T18:29:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.951932 | 694 |
CPattern, a provider of software solutions in the field of foreign exchange (and other fields as well) launched a new and interesting product: a tool for detecting when traders are about to abandon. The early identification allows brokers to encounter such cases and perhaps to prevent the abandonment.
Earlier, CPattern launched a product called Converter, used to identify when traders are about to convert from demo traders to real ones. Another product is the interest “Guardian Angel” tool for traders. More details from the press release are available below:
CPattern, the pioneer of real time Business Intelligence in the trading industry, announces the launch of a new analytics tool: Detection of Early Signs of Customer Abandonment.
After intensive research into traders’ behavior, based on historical data of thousands of traders, CPattern is now capable of modeling trading patterns that are associated with abandonment. The innovative service allows brokers, for the first time, to be one step ahead of their customers: CPattern sends the broker signals in real time when a given customer starts showing signs of abandonment. This highly valuable data enables the broker’s retention agents to engage with the right trader, at the right time and with the right reason.
Online brokers need to crunch enormous amounts of data on a daily basis and the larger the broker, the more difficult it becomes to monitor the data and extract meaningful information. In most cases, when traders choose to quit trading, brokers will learn about it only after it has already happened, and getting customers back to trade requires significant efforts and resources. This new service allows brokers, for the first time, to monitor all their traders’ activity in a very simple way and in a matter of seconds.
“Identification of signs of abandonment touches a sensitive nerve in the industry”, says Oded Shefer, CPattern’s founder and CEO: “We are leading a revolution in customer retention. Our behavioral models and technology now enable brokers to make customer retention more data and timing driven, efficient, systematic, objective, and accurate. Along with the Converter (real time identification of demo users likely to make a deposit) and the Guardian Angelâ„¢ (a powerful real time personalized feedback system), CPattern now offers a comprehensive value chain across the trader’s life cycle”.
The VP Marketing of a large broker in Turkey recently commented on the new service: “My sales agents are really happy with CPattern’s signals. It makes their job much easier. The sales agents can now contact customers and demo users exactly when needed. CPattern’s signals allow us to monitor all the trading activity and react almost immediately to many types of complex events. This is the next generation of customer care”.
CPattern is already working with several leading brokers, and collaborates with Boston Technologies and LivePerson to deliver its analytics services to online brokers. | <urn:uuid:c0cbd54d-8b96-416f-922c-97bcacfdd879> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.forexcrunch.com/cpattern-launches-traders-abandonment-detection-service/ | 2023-09-23T18:55:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.919776 | 593 |
Rosberg looked more comfortable than Hamilton in FP1, but the latter turned the tables in FP2. The Englishman was fastest on the soft-compound Pirelli tyres and got a great lap out of his supersofts, whereas Rosberg was six-tenths off on that rubber and didn’t get a good lap on the red-banded rubber. Both men had off-track moments, Hamilton also spinning in both sessions. The team uprated both power units that were previously used in China, after spending two development tokens to enhance the fuel system – and hence power – throughout their supply range.
Lewis Hamilton - FP1: 1:38.127, P2; FP2: 1:37.583, P1
“It’s good to be back in the car after what’s felt like a pretty long wait since China. It’s been a constructive day to start the weekend, too. We got through most of our programme except one last little bit at the end as some of my tyres were flat-spotted but no big drama there. I think we’re looking strong here – but we need to keep working hard if we are to try and stay ahead of the Ferraris. They look like they might be another step closer this weekend. We’ve got a few things to look at to make sure we perfect the setup for qualifying, so we shall see how it goes...”
Nico Rosberg - FP1: 1:38.849, P1; FP2: 1:38.450, P3
“It’s been a solid start to the weekend. It’s difficult to get it right at this track, as there’s only a small window where the tyres work perfectly and a lot of places where you can easily make mistakes. I didn’t manage to hook up a full quick lap on the supersoft in FP2. But, aside from that, it was a good day. The car felt good on a quick lap this morning and again on the longer runs this afternoon, so that’s very encouraging. It’s great to back here in Russia and I very much look forward to the rest of the weekend.”
Paddy Lowe, Executive Director (Technical)
“We ran a fairly regular programme today. There are two main challenges of this circuit. The first is to get a clean lap, as there are a number of tricky braking zones – particularly at Turn Two. The second is to understand how to get the best from the tyres. As a relatively new circuit, the tarmac is still very smooth, making it difficult to generate temperature in the rubber – particularly in cooler conditions like we’ve seen today. Nevertheless, we end the day reasonably happy, with all of our Friday homework complete and both drivers satisfied with setup thus far. We’ve brought some minor upgrades to the power unit this weekend, including a new engine oil from Petronas. The main test item of the day was to make sure that this package was all working correctly for the rest of the weekend, which seems to be the case. Tomorrow will be all about understanding how to get the best single lap pace out of the car for what will undoubtedly be a close qualifying battle with Ferrari.”
Sainz found a decent balance early on and was happy with the way his day went, but Verstappen admitted that he was struggling with oversteer as his STR11’s sweet spot continued to elude him.
Carlos Sainz - FP1: 1:40.654, P10; FP2: 1:39.465, P11
“It feels good to be back here in Russia. As I said before arriving here, this is a track that I enjoy and today we were able to cover all of our run plan with no issues, so I’m happy with that. I’m pleased with the car so far and I’m looking forward to the rest of the weekend. As we’ve seen during the first three races, the midfield is extremely tight so we need to keep working because it’s not going to be easy.”
Max Verstappen - FP1: 1:41.134, P15; FP2: 1:39.501, P12
“Quite a difficult start to the weekend. I experienced a lot of oversteer and we haven’t found the right solution for this yet. It felt very tricky out there today – it’s difficult to enter the corner in the right way because when you try to go a bit faster you easily end up off track. Fortunately though, it’s only Friday, so we still have some time to work on this – it will be a long night but I’m confident we will be ready for tomorrow.”
Phil Charles, Chief Race Engineer
“It was a bit of a mixed bag for us today. The track was quite low grip and we found the last sector in particular quite hard to master for a lot of the running. Overall Carlos was a bit happier: he hit on a balance he was quite happy with in the long-run on soft tyres, but we didn’t really get a clean lap in with him on the shorter runs. For Max it was a bit of a different story; we clearly have a bit of work to do tonight because we didn’t really hit a sweet spot with him today, so we will put the hard work in tonight to get him happy and back to where he normally is.”
As Sirotkin made an impressive debut in Magnussen’s R.S.16 in FP1, Palmer had a torrid time coping with the same vicious snap oversteer that hampered him in China. He fruitlessly tried to find a decent balance while completing aero assessment work which included back-to-back front wing comparisons, a spin and a few off-track excursions. In the afternoon Magnussen did the tyre assessment work and was cautiously optimistic for the weekend.
Kevin Magnussen - FP2: 1:40.193, P15
“First impressions are okay after today and the car isn’t too bad here. Evaluating the tyres was the main job in FP2 and the track was fairly consistent throughout the session. It’s quite distinct with the tyres here actually; there is no big difference between the soft and super soft tyres and there is very low degradation so it’ll be interesting for the race. We have a few things to work on before tomorrow’s morning practice session, though the pace we showed today is probably not far from where we are. Hopefully we can have qualifying with no mistakes or issues, then take it onto the race and seize any opportunities that come our way.”
Jolyon Palmer - FP1: 1:41.671, P18; FP2: 1:40.688, P18
“I wasn’t able to get a good balance or find the sweet spot today which is always a little frustrating. Fortunately, we’ve had a good reliable day with both cars so there’s plenty of data for us to work from to make improvements for tomorrow. The track’s quite slippery out there but we accumulated a lot of laps without drama. We just need to dial-out the unwanted oversteer and I think there’s more pace to come.”
Sergey Sirotkin - FP1: 1:40.898
“My target for today was to give the team exactly what they wanted from the session. I tried to remain very calm even though it is, of course, very exciting to get to drive a Formula 1 car. Obviously, it’s always beneficial when your lap time looks good but I felt comfortable delivering at today’s level even if it wasn’t as comfortable as it could have been with my seat. I am happy that I have started this long programme with Renault Sport Formula One Team in a positive manner.”
Alan Permane, Trackside Operations Director
“A productive first day for us. It was Sergey’s first time in the car and he did a very positive job for us. We weren’t able to get the seating position perfect for him yet despite this he delivered good pace and feedback. Jolyon had a straight-forward couple of sessions concentrating on aero development in the first session and a further front wing back-to-back comparison as well as tyre work in the afternoon. Kevin didn’t suffer from missing FP1 and was able to deliver everything required from FP2. We’ve still got some work to do, in particular with an oversteer balance. There are improvements possible, but it’s a reasonable start to the weekend.”
Massa had a clutch problem for most of the morning, but recovered to go fifth fastest on supersofts. Bottas was quicker in FP2, and believes the team can be more competitive here.
Felipe Massa - FP1: 1:39.365, P5; FP2: 1:39.289, P9
“I think it was a positive day. I’m happy with how the car is performing in the short runs and the long runs with the tyres. I think that maybe this is a better track for us than other tracks. But we just need to wait and see, and try to do the best we can.”
Valtteri Bottas - FP1: 1:39.802, P7; FP2: 1:39.185, P6
“It was a good Friday. We managed to test everything we had planned to, including a number of new aero parts. The results from these tests are looking good which is positive. Tyre behaviour is the key at this track and that will be our focus tonight. We’ll be trying to get a bit more out of the shorter runs and maybe we can also still improve on the longer runs, although our long run pace is looking good at the moment so I’m hopeful that we can do well over the weekend.”
Rob Smedley, Head of Performance Engineering
“We had a very complex test programme today. We looked at various suspension and set-up options, we’ve been looking at aerodynamic configurations with the front wing, and we’ve been doing our homework on the tyres, so it’s been really busy. We’ve collected all of the data that we need to but we have a long night ahead to make sure we have the car optimised for tomorrow. The team’s done a good job in getting through the programme after the clutch actuation problem we had with Felipe’s car this morning, which put us on the back foot, but we managed to recover and get through everything that we needed to. The car looks reasonably competitive on low and especially high fuel, which is what we’re always working towards. So for this stage of the weekend we are where we need to be, maybe even a little bit further up the road.”
Ferrari brought new upgraded power units for both SF16-Hs, plus new front wings. Vettel was third fastest in FP1, but on the basis of his single lap on supersofts in FP2, and Hamilton’s sole good lap on them, the deficit from red to silver was 0.6s. Adding to Ferrari’s disappointment, Vettel’s car then developed an electronic problem which forced him to sit out nearly an hour of the afternoon session and lose out on valuable race running. Raikkonen struggled for pace relative to his team-mate in FP2, having been close in FP1, and said it was hard to get the tyres working properly. There was further bad news in the evening when it was revealed that Vettel will have to take a five-place grid penalty as his gearbox needed changing. It is not yet clear whether that was related to the electronic problem.
Sebastian Vettel - FP1: 1:39.175, P3; FP2: 1:38.235, P2
“Looks like we had an electric problem, but I am sure we can fix it. Still, it is a shame, because now we are lacking some laps, especially in the long runs on race trims, which would have allowed us to see how competitive we are. But Kimi did the homework for the team, so it is not too bad. Also, here in Russia we know roughly what to expect. I think we can still learn a lot from what other people did. In qualifying trim we still have some stuff to improve. I think the car was getting better though. The track was quite dirty in the morning and then during the day it came more towards us. I felt happier as the day continued, it's true that for the race we are lacking a bit of information, but we will see tomorrow morning, when we have another practice session.”
Kimi Raikkonen - FP1: 1:39.332, P4; FP2: 1:38.793, P4
“It was not an ideal day, one of those days you struggle to make the tyres work and get the car where you want. I wasn't doing any proper lap, but today it's only practice, I'm sure we can improve for tomorrow. Overall I think we just have to work on the set up to make it as we want and then it should be ok. We have a new engine and new parts on the car, so far it has been working well. We wouldn't use any new thing if we did not expect it to be good.”
Button had a spin in FP1, and both he and Alonso had some exciting off-track moments in FP2. Each felt that there is work to do on the balance of the MP4-31, but there is optimism this weekend that at least one of them will make it through to Q3.
Fernando Alonso - FP1: 1:40.771, P12; FP2: 1:39.400, P10
“Getting at least one car into Q3 tomorrow would be good news for us. I think that’s possible. I know in the past that our results on a Friday make us perhaps a little over-optimistic about our chances for Saturday, but the car felt good today. We’re not 100 percent there yet – there’s still a little bit more to come from McLaren. Let’s see if that’s enough to get us into the top 10 in qualifying.
"The car was a little unbalanced in certain corners, and we maximise the power, and make the tyre work – at the right temperature, then we can improve on 12th position.
“I hope tomorrow we can maximise our potential.”
Jenson Button - FP1: 1:40.663, P11; FP2: 1:39.196, P8
“It’s been a positive day, overall. We’ve been quick on Fridays before, and we know that we face the prospect of having to save some fuel in the race, but hopefully we’ll be able to knock on the door of Q3 tomorrow and be capable of scoring some points on Sunday.
“If we can qualify inside the top 10 tomorrow, we’ll be somewhat limited on tyre choice, but it’ll be possible to race well from there; you’re with the quicker cars, able to run in the DRS and can let them pull you along.
“This circuit tends to be quite easy on tyres – we’re able to do a lot of laps on them. I think people are still thinking about one or two stops in the race – most probably one. I think it’ll be an interesting weekend.”
Eric Boullier, racing director
“The Sochi track is deceptively challenging – and today’s sessions underlined the fact that finding a perfect balance around here is tricky.
“In the morning, we undertook a significant amount of aero and set-up development work. That made it difficult to get an accurate read on the balance, both drivers complaining that the car felt unpredictable and difficult to drive with confidence. Fortunately, we made a good deal of progress over the lunchbreak, with the result that Jenson and Fernando reported that the car felt much better in this afternoon’s session.
“It’s encouraging that we managed to get both cars into the top 10 this afternoon. While qualifying inside the top 10 brings additional strategic challenges on race day, it’s our aim to get both cars into Q3 tomorrow. Such a result will certainly prove motivational for the entire team, and a good indicator of the solid progress we continue to make.”
Yusuke Hasegawa, Honda R&D Co Ltd head of F1 project & executive chief engineer
“As both drivers have carried over their power units from the Chinese Grand Prix, Honda’s key focus during today’s free practice sessions was to provide stable running, which in turn enabled the team to concentrate on Sunday’s race set-up.
“It’s too early to tell how representative Jenson’s and Fernando’s practice results are, because all of the teams ran different fuel-loads and settings, but overall our longer stints on the soft tyres have been solid and with decent pace.
“We know that fuel economy will be tough here, so our main focus now is to manage this in the best way possible for Sunday’s race.”
Both race drivers got through their programmes, though Hulkenberg’s was necessarily halved so that Celis could get another run in FP1.
Nico Hulkenberg - FP2: 1:39.795, P13
“The track conditions were not great this afternoon and the wind made it a bit tricky, but it was the same for everyone and this is what you expect on a track so close to the sea. I still think we have a lot of information to help us make the right tweaks to improve our performance for tomorrow. I am feeling good about the weekend: the track is very enjoyable to drive and it throws quite a few challenges your way.”
Sergio Perez - FP1: 1:40.287, P9; FP2: 1:39.867, P14
“It’s still quite early in the weekend, but the first feeling is positive. We completed a busy programme with several long runs, so we already have a good understanding of the tyres. There’s still a bit of work to do in terms of balance, but we should be competitive and fighting for a place in the top ten in qualifying tomorrow.”
Alfonso Celis - FP1: 1:43.432, P22
“I am happy about the work I did today and also about writing a page of Mexican motorsport history together with Sergio and Esteban – with three Mexicans on track. My main priority was to avoid mistakes and complete the programme the team had planned for me. I wanted to take a few more risks compared to Bahrain, but the track conditions were quite tricky and in these circumstances you can’t be selfish – you need to focus and ensure you keep your nose clean. We had a busy programme of aero evaluation and I am happy I was able to deliver the information the team needed.”
Otmar Szafnauer, Chief Operating Officer
“All in all, a routine Friday, even though the overcast conditions this morning made the air a bit colder than what is forecast for qualifying and the race. The afternoon was a bit better and we collected all the data we need to analyse this evening. Sergio’s plan focussed more on long run performance, while Nico had a slightly different programme to account for him sitting out FP1. I feel we can get more out of the car in qualifying trim, so that will be our main focus tonight and during FP3. We are happy with the indications we are getting from our long run data, but choosing the right strategy will be crucial because it’s not easy to overtake here and track position counts for a lot.”
Nasr was happier than of late after getting a new chassis for the weekend, and this time it was Ericsson who was struggling at the Swiss team.
Marcus Ericsson - FP1: 1:41.962, P19; FP2: 1:41.652, P22
“It was not the ideal Friday for me. Nevertheless, I ran many laps today gathering a lot of information on the car-side. This track has a unique asphalt, which makes it challenging to get the tyres to work. We saw it last year, and again today, and I have been struggling to get the tyres in the right window. We have tried different set-ups, but we are not going in the right direction yet. We have to look into the data and see what we can make better for the rest of the weekend.”
Felipe Nasr - FP1: 1:41.085, P14; FP2: 1:40.740, P19
“I was able to complete the programme as planned today. I covered a decent mileage, which was important in order to understand how the tyres behave compared to last year. The car is a lot more together compared to the previous race weekends. I was satisfied with the pace on soft tyres, but we have to work more on the supersoft compound. We tried some set-up work for the run on supersoft tyres, which did not work out as we wanted it to. We have to analyse this, but I think there is room for improvement.”
Like many, Haas struggled to find grip all day as the tyre temperatures failed to reach their optimum, and Gutierrez also lost a bit of time in FP1 when his VF-16’s battery needed recharging.
Romain Grosjean - FP1: 1:41.385, P17; FP2: 1:40.260, P16
“It was good to be back in the car. Sochi’s a track I quite like. We didn’t have a very easy day trying to assess how to work our tires and how to work the car. We can improve and make the car better. Hopefully, we can find those answers for tomorrow, as our performance is not exactly where we want it to be right now. Again, it’s all about working and learning everything. We’re struggling a little bit today, but I’m sure the guys are going to react well.”
Esteban Gutierrez - FP1: 1:41.238, P16; FP2: 1:40.508, P17
“I’m pretty happy how the day went overall, as we managed to complete a lot of laps. We’re not as competitive as I would have hoped, but we gathered a lot of data today. We’ll be looking over that to try and optimize our set-up as much as we can. In FP1 we had a small interruption this morning, and then this afternoon we looked to be heading in the right direction. We’re still working on our setup with the supersoft tyres, so I think FP3 will be important for us to get a good reference for qualifying.”
Guenther Steiner, team principal
“FP1 we had a small issue with Esteban’s car, which took us about 50 minutes to fix. Then we had to recharge his batteries, but it was no big issue. Between the two practice sessions we had good runs. We did quite a lot of laps - more than we’ve done before in two free practice sessions. We are still chasing our set-up for here. We need to get the tyres in the window where they work properly. Otherwise, we got a lot of running in and we’ll see what we can come out with for tomorrow morning in FP3.”
Haryanto lost a lot of FP1 when his MR05’s steering rack had to be changed, while Wehrlein’s car needed a new floor. Both were frustrated by the circuit’s refusal to rubber in, and compounding that at the end of FP2 the German rolled to a halt with a lack of power.
Pascal Wehrlein - FP1: 1:42.483, P20; FP2: 1:41.148, P21
“It was a difficult day today. The track was very slippery and so we struggled with a really low grip level. As more and more rubber goes down the conditions will keep improving so we remain positive for the rest of the weekend. We’ll have a good look at the data tonight and see what we have to do to prepare for a better day tomorrow.”
Rio Haryanto - FP1: 1:42.687, P21; FP2: 1:41.080, P20
“During the first session, we had a problem with the steering rack, so we lost about an hour of track time, but it was good that we still made it out before the end of the session. The mechanics did a very good job. Overall we’ve completed some good low and high fuel runs, so we collected a lot of data and looking at the pace it was also pretty good, but we still need to improve to get closer to the other teams.”
Dave Ryan, Racing Director
“We’ve had our fair share of frustrations today. This morning we had to change the steering rack on Rio’s car, which cost him a lot of time in the garage, and around the same time we had to replace the floor on Pascal’s car, which was less than ideal. However, the crews did an exceptional job to recover the situation but even so we could have done without the interruption. By comparison, this afternoon was pretty straightforward in that both Rio and Pascal got through their respective programmes. This is good in that we have a lot of information about the tyres to go through this evening but at the same time we are very aware that we have quite a bit of work to do to improve our performance in time for qualifying tomorrow.”
Ricciardo briefly trialled the new Red Bull aeroscreen at the start of FP1, then just kept his usual fifth place behind the Mercedes and Ferraris and ahead of Bottas’ Williams, in FP2, despite being the only one of them to rely on the soft rubber.
Daniel Ricciardo - FP1: 1:39.650, P6; FP2: 1:39.084, P5
“It was different this morning running with the aeroscreen, not having the wind rolling on me and the engine sound was different as well. The visibility was pretty good, so first impressions were fine, it was driveable. Where we have the structure in place is pretty much where the mirrors are so I wouldn’t say it hindered any more than we are now in terms of visibility. Peripheral vision was fine as well. The talk about open cockpits has been going on for a while and that’s fair enough. It would be great to keep it as it is but obviously with accidents that have happened, especially more recently, I think not exploring this seems a bit disrespectful. The plan is to probably try it again on a different circuit with different scenery, a bit more undulation or something like that or maybe a night circuit. The lights could be interesting how they reflect off the screen so we’ll give it a bit more running.”
Daniil Kvyat - FP1: 1:40.218, P8; FP2: 1:39.193, P7
“I think all in all it was quite successful running today. We did a useful amount of laps, and did short runs and long runs. The tyres will be very challenging here - to understand which one works better for which conditions and so on, so it will be interesting tomorrow to understand the strategy for qualifying. We have plenty of data to analyse tonight, we have to really see what the options are and what the best things to do are for Saturday and Sunday. This track has always been quite interesting in terms of tyre behaviour, so we really have to make that work. It’s quite close between us and Williams at the moment, it’s one of the tracks which should suit them the best this year. If we can take the fight to them and maybe get ahead of them, that’s our goal, that would be good.”
Paul Hembery, motorsport director
“Soft and supersoft tyres were seen in both sessions today, and different strategic choices from Mercedes and Ferrari about how those tyres were used. With just under a second between the two compounds, the supersoft seems set to be the qualifying tyre tomorrow, and it will be interesting to see whether or not the medium tyre comes into play during the race weekend at all. We’ve got plenty of data to look at now, but initial indications suggest that a one-stopper could well be possible here: although it’s unlikely to be quickest way. This all depends on track evolution though: a hallmark of Sochi that will continue throughout the weekend.” | <urn:uuid:46c58a31-01d5-4fe9-8ed2-1b3609bd1c90> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/features/2016/4/friday-in-sochi---team-by-team.html | 2023-09-23T18:55:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.971877 | 6,283 |

As we are now in the autumn period, boots are the current footwear. The same awaits us during the upcoming winter. However, if you thought that such footwear can easily match everything – you are wrong. Boots, especially those that reach to the knee or above the knee, are trendy this season. However, during the fall or winter, we usually wear pants. Therefore, here are the pants you can match well with your knee-high boots.
Knee High Boots: A Fashion Hit This Autumn
For some of us, autumn has arrived faster than expected. Many of us have already started to rearrange our wardrobes and shoe cabinets. If you have already packed summer clothes and summer shoes and sandals, and you want to open the door to autumn things – we will tell you what to focus on this season. One of the main fashion trends this fall is classic knee-high boots. This fashion detail seems to get to the surface every now and then – and delights us again with its simplicity and versatility. You probably already have at least one pair of these boots in your closet – and if you don’t, it’s time to look for them.
Why Choose Knee-High Boots?
Boots have always been and remained footwear that speaks of a person’s style. Today, we can see those in so many variants. There are over-knee, up-to-knee, or ankle boots – and can be with a heel, platform, or flat. You can even find summer models worn by many ladies who consider themselves stylish. Nevertheless, we will agree with the majority of fashion designers in the thesis that classics are still unsurpassed – at least when it comes to boots. Knee-high boots were and remained a synonym for style. Depending on what you choose, you will also show your authenticity. However, you should know how to combine those with your wardrobe. In this respect, during autumn and winter, we are partially limited – because we mostly choose to wear pants. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t match everything well – and YES, you can be perfectly styled. Therefore, here are some suggestions and answers to the question of which pants will look best with knee-high boots.
Knee-High Boots And Pants?! Can They Match And How?
Although it is an unwritten rule that knee-high boots match better with knee-length skirts – this does not always have to be the case. Of course, it all depends on the model you wear. One thing is sure – you can match them well with pants as well as with other parts of clothing such as shirts, sweaters, or coats. Also, we should not forget about fashion accessories such as bags, which can complete your look – and additionally accentuate your boots and the pants you wear. We have some suggestions that can help you find your winning fashion combination for this fall. Of course, if you still haven’t got your pair yet – rely on a great online offer. You can find various models of knee-high boots on websites like https://www.dreampairshoes.com/collections/womens-knee-high-boots.
Combining Pants And Knee-High Boots
Although it is not always easy to match knee-high boots and trousers, it is not impossible to do it and still look perfectly styled.
Knee-high pointed-toe stiletto boots and skinny pants
There is probably no combination in which you will feel so free – and yet so feminine. Pointed-toe stiletto knee-high models are very feminine and sexy – and a combination with skinny pants will emphasize your body line. On the other hand, a woman who wears this combination of boots and pants has sufficient freedom of movement. Unlike a skirt which you constantly pull and adjust – skinny pants give you freedom of movement. However, at the same time, these pants will follow your body line and emphasize every curve. Such an outfit can be a complete hit for ladies who know how to highlight their sexiness and femininity in a good way.
Cowboy boots and jeans
That is a pure classic. When you want to look casual and yet stylish – this is a combination that cannot fail! Cowboy boots are right up to the knees, and with good jeans and a plain white shirt, you will look incredibly good. You can complete the whole combination with a deerskin jacket with fringes and large earrings in the form of golden rings. Simple, comfortable, and so stylish.
Rocker knee-high studded boots and leather pants
This combination rocks – and suits ladies who are wild at heart. Although these also look phenomenal with skinny jeans – we still vote for leather pants. OK, even leather leggings can go through. However, you should break up the monotony with the color of a T-shirt that you can wear under a leather jacket.
Riding boots and leggings
Another combination for stylish ladies. First of all, a very comfortable wardrobe and shoes give you ease of movement – no matter what you do during the day. In addition, this combination can be very stylish, even posh. If you complement this combination of trousers and boots with a coat in the popular camel color, you will have a winning combination. In addition, an accessory such as a hat or gloves will additionally contribute to making the whole combination look “expensive”.
Wide Legs Don’t Match Such Footwear!
So, as we can see, this type of footwear can be successfully combined with trousers. They are perfect for creating chic styling, which is also very elegant and casual at the same time. You can wear them with a variety of clothing for the transition period. Whether you like skirts, wide cut or very tight, or you’re a fan of women’s skinny pants, you can’t go wrong with these boots. Certainly, a model that does not go well with these boots is wide legs – because they make the appearance look messy. As for other clothing parts – they look perfect with shirts, light sweaters, and T-shirts, as well as blazers and jackets. If you like a relaxed way of dressing, you can even wear them with hooded sweatshirts and look attractive.
The Bottom Line
Although many people don’t think knee-high boots and trousers are a good fashion combination, we have proved the opposite. They can be your trump card for creating a striking outfit. You can pair them with the same color and material as your handbag, or they can serve as a detail to break up a monotonous look. | <urn:uuid:96e8656d-edcd-416c-a1e2-e5188bb5426f> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.fotolog.com/wear-pants-with-knee-high-boots/ | 2023-09-23T16:58:33Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.962892 | 1,387 |

President Trump on Friday continued his crackdown on illegal immigration, signing sweeping new orders that tighten the country’s refugee and visa policies –suspending almost all refugee admissions for four months and indefinitely barring entry for some Syrians.
Trump signed the executive action at the Pentagon, where he met with the joint chiefs of staff and participated in the swearing-in ceremony for Defense Secretary James Mattis.
"We don’t want them here."
Trump said the new measure was intended “to keep radical Islamic terrorists out of the United States of America.”
“We don’t want them here,” Trump said.
The executive order also suspends visa entry into the U.S. from seven countries that have predominately Muslim populations. They include: Syria, Iran, Iraq, Somalia, Libya, Sudan and Yemen.
The order also creates an “extreme vetting” process for any and all immigrants and visitors to the U.S.
House Chairman Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, told Fox News, “It’s a safer day for America.”
American Civil Liberties Union Executive Director Anthony Romero blasted Trump's plan as unconstitutional.
“‘Extreme vetting’ is just a euphemism for discriminating against Muslims," Romero said in a statement issued moments after the signing. "Identifying specific countries with Muslim majorities and carving out exceptions for minority religions flies in the face of the constitutional principle that bans the government from either favoring or discriminating against particular religions."
Trump defended the executive order during an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity.
"Right now, the FBI has over 1,000 [terrorism] investigations going on … and these are people that we let in," Trump said from the White House Thursday. "We don’t need this. Some people have come in with evil intentions. Most haven’t, I guess, but we can’t take chances."
Trump added that the U.S. has taken in tens of thousands of people.
“We know nothing about them,” he said. “They can say they vetted them. They didn’t vet them, they have no papers. How can you vet somebody when you don’t know anything about them and they have no papers?”
Civil rights and refugee advocates around the world have sounded the alarm over Trump’s executive order after a draft copy was leaked late Wednesday.
“These actions taken by Donald Trump are tantamount to a Muslim ban,” Abed A. Ayoub, the legal and policy director for the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee. “This is the Muslim ban that was promised by him on the campaign trail.”
As president, Trump has the authority to set how many refugees are allowed in annually. He can also choose to suspend the program altogether. Following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, President George W. Bush suspended refugee processing. It was later restarted.
In the last budget year, the U.S. has accepted 84,995 refugees of which 12,587 were from Syria. Former President Barack Obama set the refugee limit for the current budget year at 110,000.
Sources close to Trump tell Fox News he has plans to cut that by more than half to 50,000.
In an interview with CBN, Trump said persecuted Christians from Syria would get priority.
“They’ve been horribly treated. Do you know if you were a Christian in Syria it was impossible, at least very tough to get into the United States? If you were a Muslim you could come in, but if you were a Christian, it was almost impossible and the reason that was so unfair, everybody was persecuted in all fairness, but they were chopping off the heads of everybody but more so the Christians. And I thought it was very, very unfair. So we are going to help them.” | <urn:uuid:40aaceca-3edd-4a50-9e6b-9adb85102760> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-signs-executive-order-for-extreme-vetting-of-refugees | 2023-09-23T19:17:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.97532 | 812 |

The two things we really missed over the last 18 months was our shops and the heady release of the dancefloor. Luckily, we were able to combine both recently as we threw a knees-up at our Coal Drops Yard store in Kings Cross, to celebrate the launch of our brand-new collaboration with Charles Jeffery LOVERBOY.
Fred Perry x
Charles Jeffrey LOVERBOY
Capsule Collection Launch
We threw a knees-up at our Coal Drops Yard store in Kings Cross, to celebrate the launch of our brand-new collaboration with Charles Jeffery LOVERBOY.
The collection is inspired by British youth culture and individualism and Jeffery’s formative experiences of the burgeoning nu-rave and indie scene that dominated his early years in London. So, it made perfect sense that the Scottish designer made sure the tunes were on-point for the launch.
First up Josh Quinton warmed things up with a seamless blend of disco, house and party classics.
Before Foundation FM resident Lagoon Femshayma kept things moving with an eclectic set of high-energy dancefloor fillers and pop classics.
The Charles Jeffery LOVERBOY Fred Perry collection will launch in three separate capsule collections, with the first collection available to shop online now and in select Fred Perry stores. | <urn:uuid:b2de757a-c559-4dd9-b583-078ab0753f7d> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.fredperry.com/sa-en/subculture/category/collaboration/charles-jeffrey-loverboy-launch | 2023-09-23T17:59:38Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.927666 | 269 |
Some women like to remove their pubic hair while others wish to leave those untouched. However, cleaning the pubic hair doesn’t determine the hygiene of your genitals. There are no health benefits of removing pubic hair.
Here are a few things to answer your question ‘how to remove pubic hair’:
- Depilatories – It’s a painless way to get rid of your pubic hair. However, it’s important to keep in mind that not all hair removing creams are safe to use around your genitals. You should read the label of the cream to find it if it is suitable to use on the vulva. Also,make sure you don’t leave the cream for a very long time as it may not be safe for the sensitive skin of the pubic area. If there is any redness, bumps, and itching, then it means that you are allergic to the hair removal cream.
- Shaving – Shaving is highly popular among women due to its ease and convenience. However, as it doesn’t pull the hair from the roots, the hair grow back in a couple of days. Another issue with shaving is the growth of stubble that makes your genitals itchy. Some women avoid shaving because they think that shaving causes the hair to grow coarser which is not true.
- Waxing –Waxing is another way through which you can remove your pubic hair. The wax is heated, and a thin coat of warm wax is applied on the skin. A thin cloth-like fabric is kept on the wax before it hardens and when the wax cools off, the strip of cloth is pulled off causing hair to come out from the root. With regular waxing, the amount of hair and hair re-growth in the area is significantly reduced. However, if you are waxing your pubic area for the first time, it is advisable to do it in the salon from a professional.
- Laser hair removal – Laser hair removal provides permanent results. However, the results depend on the skin and hair type of person. Several sessions are needed to get permanent results. Wearing protective eyewear is important while taking laser hair removal treatment. It may also fail to bring the desired results. So it’s important to discuss the expectations with an expert. Laser hair removal is also an expensive procedure.
There are different ways through which you can remove your unwanted pubic hair; however, not all are suitable for everyone, so it’s advisable to pick whichever suits you the best. The aim is to remove the pubic hair with little pain and discomfort. | <urn:uuid:88f488a9-cca7-4722-896f-f3f80a6bf26b> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.freecelebritygraphics.com/how-to-remove-pubic-hair-in-a-painless-way/ | 2023-09-23T17:44:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.963658 | 544 |
USO Honors Stanley C. Middleman with Chairman Award
Freedom Mortgage reports record philanthropic efforts in 2018
Mount Laurel, NJ - January 9, 2019 - Freedom Mortgage and its founder and CEO Stanley C. Middleman were recently presented with Liberty United Service Organizations' (USO) esteemed 2018 Chairman's Award in honor of their service to the military community and their support of Liberty USO. The award recognizes Freedom Mortgage for making a difference in southern New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Freedom Mortgage is one of the nation's largest full-service non-bank mortgage companies and a leader in VA and government-insured lending.
Working with Liberty USO has been truly gratifying, Middleman said.
I wholeheartedly support their mission of enhancing the quality of life of the U.S. Armed Forces personnel and their families. He added,
It's an honor to receive the Liberty USO's 2018 Chairman's Award. We look forward to continuing our support of this outstanding organization.
The Liberty USO award capped a record year of giving for Freedom Mortgage. The company donated to various military and civilian non-profits nationwide and gave thousands of volunteer hours. It participated in a wide variety of food drives, event sponsorships and collections supporting communities around the country. Most recently, Freedom Mortgage employees collected over 3,400 toys nationally at the company's annual toy drive. Beneficiary organizations include the Salvation Army, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Ronald McDonald House and Toys for Tots.
During the holidays and all year long, we give back to our communities and to our active-duty and veteran service members, Middleman said.
We have a strong culture that is deeply focused on philanthropy, which makes our year-round calendar of giving possible.
Freedom Mortgage's commitment to giving back to active-duty troops, veterans and their families remains the pillar of its Team Freedom Cares employee engagement and corporate giving program. This year Freedom Mortgage employees collected more than 2,600 backpacks and school supplies for military families across the country and sent over 1,000 handwritten notes to traveling troops through USO airport lounges. The Skating for Service event raised more than $11,000 for the Liberty USO, and another $5,000 was raised through the Freedom Mortgage 5K Run/Fun Walk benefitting the Liberty USO and Homes for Our Troops.
Freedom Mortgage is also committed to helping in the fight against hunger through a national partnership with Feeding America. Now in its third year, the 2018 Team Freedom Cares Food Drive collected nine tons of food items for Feeding America food banks in AZ, CA, FL, IN, MD, NJ, NY and PA. Freedom Mortgage was also a returning sponsor of the Southern N.J. Summer Meals program providing nutritious breakfasts, lunches, dinners and snacks to 6,400 local children who normally depend on their school lunch program as a source for meals.
Each year Freedom Mortgage sponsors the Cooper Hospital Foundation's gala and the American Cancer Society of Southern New Jersey's Hope Gala. At the ACS 2019 gala in April, Mr. Middleman will be recognized as its Man of the Year for the company's contributions. Freedom Mortgage also sponsored the Spark! Fishers community event in Fishers, Indiana, where the company has a large mortgage servicing facility. The company also celebrated its one-millionth customer at the event by paying a local military veteran's mortgage for a year.
Freedom Mortgage's community spirit is inspired from the top down and shared among its employees.
Giving back to military veterans and their families and helping those less fortunate in our local communities is such an important part of our company culture, Middleman said.
I'm proud of all our philanthropic work, and I'm grateful for all of the hard-working and generous people at Freedom Mortgage. Together, I believe we're making a difference.

Real estate investors face many risks when building new commercial or residential properties. In most cases, their rate of return makes it worth their while, but there are times when the risk doesn't pay off. This can result in a significant financial loss, negatively impacting their future investments. Umbrella insurance can help take the sting out of those losses and allow them to continue to invest in more profitable properties. Investing in real estate is lucrative if you know how to protect yourself.
Common claims associated with real estate properties often have to do with various landlord/tenant issues. This can include tenants that damage property or third-party litigation that involves damages to property caused by the tenant. Vacant properties are common haunts for trespassers. If a trespasser is injured while on the property, they may try to sue the landlord. Poorly maintained properties may also be the subject of lawsuits.
It's essential to know your variables and your different types of risks. Work with a commercial insurance broker to ensure you get the proper umbrella coverage to cover your risks sufficiently. Depending on the type of commercial property you own, you must choose the right umbrella coverage to ensure you are adequately covered.
Umbrella insurance covers any claims that exceed the cap of your traditional policy. Umbrella policies can range from $1 million to $20 million. The amount of an umbrella policy will depend on multiple variables and the type of property you have invested in. When your insurance broker looks at your holdings, they will create an umbrella policy that best suits your needs.
An excess liability policy only extends the limits of one type of policy. With an umbrella policy, all your policy limits are extended, so you are fully covered. Each property will be covered equally under an umbrella policy if you have multiple properties. Umbrella coverage goes much further than just your general liability policy.
Umbrella policies cover bodily injury, property damage, and contractual liability. Physical injuries and property damage are quite common in certain types of properties. Contractual liabilities involve broken contracts or leases. It also consists in assuming a landlord's tort liability. An umbrella policy will not cover intentional property damage caused by a landlord or personal injury to a landlord. There are specific lines of coverage dedicated to these types of claims.
If you are trying to determine the cost of your property, you will have to consider the different variables. They include the value of the property, its location, and its overall value.

01/08/21 – San Diego Union Tribune: Developer 1HWY1 has spent four years and $18 million refining a 2 million square-foot project that includes multiple hotels, shops, an event center and a blue-tech campus.
After spending more than four years refining a now $2.5 billion project, the developer picked to completely redo the existing 70 acres of land and water that make up San Diego’s Central Embarcadero appears to be on the cusp of receiving a key determination from the state agency tasked with protecting California’s tidelands.
The decision in question, from the California State Lands Commission, relates to whether a handful of unconventional tideland uses, such as office space and brand to use and enjoy tidelands.
Following years of back and forth, a preliminary finding in favor of the developer could come in a few months, 1HWY1 told the Union-Tribune and the agency confirmed. It would help finally push more formal — and public — consideration of a highly anticipated project that has yet to graduate from the realm of the conceptual to the actual.
Should State Lands find that project is consistent with the Public Trust Doctrine, Seaport San Diego would then begin to travel down the long road of approvals, as overseen by the San Diego Unified Port District, which holds the land on behalf of the public. It starts with board approval of the project description, ends with certification by the California Coastal Commission and includes a likely two-year-long environmental analysis period in between.
1HWY1 anticipates finalizing and submitting its formal project description to the port by June. If OK’d by the board of port commissioners, the project would then undergo environmental review. A best-case scenario could see the developer break ground in 2024 or 2025.
“This is a very large and complex project and the 1HWY1 team has proposed some unique programmatic components. Therefore, it will take time to ensure it’s done right — and we’re more focused on that than on how long it will take,” said Port Commissioner Michael Zucchet, who is the incoming board chair. “That’s not unusual anywhere, and certainly not unexpected when we’re talking about a potentially multi-billion dollar proposal on a prime location on the Southern California coast.” Read More>

Serie A giants Juventus have reportedly the likes of Atletico Madrid and Barcelona in the race to sign midfielder Juan Mata. The Spain international has been with Manchester United for the past five years but his future with the club remains uncertain beyond the ongoing campaign when his contract concludes.
According to Tuttomercatoweb, the Bianconeri are monitoring the proceedings of the former Chelsea man after getting the green light from Cristiano Ronaldo. Furthermore, it is added that Turin giants are prepared to offer the Spaniard with a lucrative three-year contract as they look to ward off competition from other top European clubs.
Mata has been a credible performer for the Red Devils over the past five years, but he has not managed to replicate the same form from the time at Stamford Bridge. As such, he has generally struggled to secure a regular starting role and that has remained the case during the ongoing campaign, where nearly 40 percent of the appearances have come off the bench.
At present, Mata has failed to reach a breakthrough with United regarding a contract extension and reports have indicated that the Red Devils have remained reluctant to match the player’s demands. The Spaniard is understood to want at least a two-year contract to remain committed to the club but the board seem to have made it clear that they would offer a maximum of one year with the option of another 12 months.
Meanwhile, Mata’s teammate Ander Herrera has likewise been in a contract standoff with the club but that has been more focused on the wages rather than the proposed length of the deal. The Basque player has recently been touted for a potential move to Paris Saint-Germain, who are open to the prospect of matching his £200,000-a-week wage demands. Herrera has made nearly 200 appearances for the club to date. | <urn:uuid:e43a80ac-ffa8-48a0-86ce-2b67c955b2f2> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.gamertics.com/juventus-join-the-race-to-sign-manchester-united-attacker-on-a-free.html | 2023-09-23T18:23:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.97719 | 370 |
Alphabet Lore Games first began as a simple series of YouTube animations, not games, which the creator, Mike Salcedo, meant to use in teaching children the letters of the alphabet, which goes in the order of A, B, C, D, E, F, G.... and so forth, with us being positive that if you are reading this, you know what we are talking about!
Each letter has its catchphrase, which it says and acts out as they appear on the screen in their respective video, and after we reached the letter Z with the videos, the next shorts that appeared presented various mini-stories where the letters interacted with one another in all sorts of funny ways!
There is always something happening in the world of these letters, and, considering how popular they have become, it was only a matter of time before games with Alphabet Lore online were to appear, and we are happy to say that we have a category for them, great content to play from it, and, most importantly, when new ones appear, our team will be the first one to share them with you all, guaranteed!
Let's learn what makes Alphabet Lore Games so fun and educational!
We invite you to play through classic formats such as Alphabet Lore coloring games, where you get to paint the letters, solve jigsaws featuring them, and even solve puzzles that are more dynamic and interesting, such as puzzle games with pins, merge and fight games, where you go to war, and let's not forget about maze games where you need to get them out!
Who would have thought, but even shooting games have made their way into the series, where the letters have come to life and invaded your town, so you need to shoot them all down without dying yourself. There have been not only crossover with the highly-popular FNF Games category of our website but with other popular internet crazes, such as the Rainbow Alphabet Lore Game proves!
It goes without saying, but this is a series just in its inception stage, so you can rest assured that many more great games are going to come, for kids and adults of all ages, and you can bet that our team will be bringing them around first, so make sure to check around and not miss out on even one of them! Let's start all this educational fun right now, and maybe tell your friends to come around just as well! | <urn:uuid:e3e5276a-31c5-4f19-a522-6c057040780c> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.gameszap.com/alphabet-lore-games.html | 2023-09-23T16:42:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.976836 | 486 |

I was just emailed this link to an old blog post from early in July. The blogger is FOX Sports Broadcast Associate Bryan Biederman. I'm not sure who that is, but apparently his blog focuses on going to different ballparks and picking up girls. No not like you think, well maybe that way too, probably like that, but also literally picking up girls... off the ground.
I guess every blog needs a niche and he seems to have found his. I'm not sure how this started or how he convinces women to let him pick them up. Most people over the age of 3 don't like to be picked up. Women no matter how petite are not comfortable being picked up because their weight is an issue. What if the guy can't pick them up? He's physically not strong enough or let's out huge moan? Plus who let's a random person touch them at all? I guess that's where the Fox Sports press pass comes in. Chicks will do anything for the press pass.
So this dude makes it to San Diego and meets the "Pod [sic] Squad". He picks one of them up and gets some photos. I don't recognize either of these squadders which means one of two things. Either these are imposters or there is an evil version of the Pad Squad, let's call them the Pod Squad, they balance out all the good that the real Pad Squad does. Well I guess there is a third option but it is much less fun, maybe I've just never seen these two.
Fox Sports Blogger can have this niche, we here at Gaslamp Ball aren't very strong and have bad backs. Maybe they could pick us up or carry us to our seat or something, that'd be alright. | <urn:uuid:ce70377d-ab3d-40cd-b7dc-b3d29b7a18b4> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://www.gaslampball.com/2007/8/12/13730/6351 | 2023-09-23T17:23:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233506528.19/warc/CC-MAIN-20230923162848-20230923192848-00698.warc.gz | en | 0.984781 | 362 |
