Crochet Summer Poncho Pattern
Last summer, Mikey taught us the Cool Poncho pattern. We had lots of requests to make this in the round instead of 2 separate panels stitched together. So this Summer Poncho is an adaptation of that pattern. It is easier to adjust to any adult size and you just crochet more or less to your desired length.
This is the perfect poncho for a cool summer evening. Just enough to toss on to keep your shoulders warm. You can wear it with the points down, or turn it sideways and wear it off the shoulder for a fun look.
- Crochet Cabin Hibernate Blanket Pattern
- Crochet Better Together Afghan Stitch Along
- Crochet Spiced Up Shoulder Cozy Pattern
- 15 Crocheted Summer Tops
This was made to fit a size large, but it can be easily sized up or down by just adjusting how many rows to fit. I used less than 2 Caron Cakes in Lavender Cake to crochet this easy project.

The Wordfence Threat Intelligence team has discovered a vulnerability in pouluar plugin Download Manager, installed on over 100,000 sites.
Download Manager, designed to allow site content creators to share downloadable files that are stored as posts. These downloads can be displayed on the front-end of the WordPress site for users to download.
Vulnerable versions allows an authenticated attacker to delete arbitrary files hosted on the server, provided they have access to create downloads. If an attacker deletes the wp-config.php file they can gain administrative privileges, including the ability to execute code, by re-running the WordPress install process.
The vulnerable versions of the plugin register the deleteFiles() function that is called via the before_delete_post hook. This hook is triggered right before a post has been deleted and its intended functionality in this case is to delete any files that may have been uploaded and associated with a download post.
Wordfence Premium, Wordfence Care, and Wordfence Response received a firewall rule on July 8, 2022 to provide protection against any attackers that try to exploit this vulnerability. Wordfence Free users will receive this same protection 30 days later on August 7, 2022.
To stay safe its recommend to ensure that your site has been updated to the latest patched version of Download Manager, which is version 3.2.53 at the time of this publication.

- 90 Day Fiancé -I Spent Weeks Researching Lana's Dating Profiles & Here's Everything I Learned
It’s easy to feel confused about the state of the world these days. Global pandemic. Protests. Giant murder hornets. And somehow, some way, Lana from 90 Day Fiancé: Before The 90 Days is actually a real person. These are bewildering, complex times.
Svetlana, who goes by “Lana,” and whose last name I can’t find anywhere, is (was?) the 28-year-old Ukrainian girlfriend who David Murphey, a 60-year-old single man from Las Vegas, N.V., met online nearly seven years ago.
Like many 90 Day couples, Lana and David had never met in person before David’s appearance on the show. But unlike many 90 Day couples, David had never even video-chatted with Lana, yet had traveled to Ukraine three separate times to meet her, only to be ghosted by her every time he went.
Needless to say, when David traveled to Ukraine for a fourth time with 90 Day cameras in tow and Lana still didn’t show, fans were pretty convinced that Lana was, at best, simply using David for money and at worst, a digital compilation of stock photos and deceit.
Even though watching David road trip alone through the Ukrainian countryside with nothing but a Google translate app and a deeply misplaced sense of hope was good TV, it was still deeply heartbreaking. It seemed like it was time to give up — no one really says “fifth time’s a charm.” But, no one is like David, either.
Much to everyone’s horror (and likely, 90 Day producers’ glee), David decided to go back to Ukraine to meet Lana for a second time this season, making this his fifth trip from Nevada to Ukraine to attempt to meet Lana.
This time, though, on his fateful trip filmed for Season 4 Episode 11, which was titled “King Of Wishful Thinking,” Lana actually showed up. Even more shocking, she was actually, you know, real.
Now, whether she’s verifiably 28 years old (there’s a lot fan speculation about her seeming much older in real life), attracted to David at all, or capable of expressing human emotion (look no further than this “hug”) is still up for debate, but we do know for sure that she’s — and I can’t stress this enough — real, and that she looks like her online profile photos.
And here’s the thing: There are a lot of photos of Lana online.
In fact, as many a 90 Day Reddit sleuth has pointed out, Lana’s online dating profiles, or profiles that use Lana’s photos for profiles (the two are not the same thing!), are numerous. One could even call them prolific. “Svetlana from Pavlograd” has covered all her bases when it comes to the “meet Russian and Ukrainian women online” dating sites and clearly, something is working about her online presence.
(I reached out to both David and Lana for comment about their relationship, Lana’s current dating site profiles, and I asked for confirmation about her age, but didn’t hear back before publication.)
Let’s face it, David is a mostly normal, successful guy with some cats, a mysterious former professional bowling career, and a shockingly robust head of hair. Sure, he may have truly tragic taste in leather coats, but one still has to wonder why he couldn’t find someone whom he could confirm within the first three meetings was a real person.
What, exactly, was so special about Lana’s online presence that drew David in, why are Lana’s profiles still up on the internet (when she’s supposedly in a relationship with David) and what does it all mean? Let’s find out.
Lana’s Dating Profiles
Veronika Love’s concept is pretty simple — you pay for “credits” that you spend in order to talk to Russian and Ukrainian women online. According to its website, the cheapest option available is for first-time subscribers, and the deal offers 20 credits for $15. The most expensive option is 1,250 credits for $499. To chat with a woman costs two credits per minute, and if you’d like to view a woman’s photo gallery, it will cost you five credits each time you look at it.
While it’s not clear exactly which site in particular David used, it is clear from what we see on the show that he did use these types of Ukrainian dating sites that require users to pay money per message to chat with women.
As an example, let’s say David used this particular site and chatted online with someone like Lana for 30 minutes every day for seven years. Doing so would’ve cost him 153,300 credits, which adds up to — wait for it — $61,197.36.
David has admitted on the show to spending over $100,000 on his relationship with Lana, even before meeting her. When you consider that the absolute cheapest option for flights from Las Vegas to Ukraine is about $800, plus other travel expenses, plus the fact that it costs even more to simply view a photo from a woman, you can see how spending 100 grand or more might not be easy, but it’s feasible.
“David himself claims to have spent $250,000-$300,000 on communication and gifts for Lana over the last seven years,” Kim tells me over email (and David admitted this in the Tell All, Part Two, that aired Monday, June 8.) “People usually downplay this number, so I'm going to guess that David has spent about $500,000 over the course of their relationship.”
But enough about how David has spent a ton of money finding “love;” let’s explore instead what made him fall in said “love.”
On the dating site Veronika Love, Lana’s dating profile — which notably still exists today despite the fact that, when this season of Before The 90 Days ended, she and David were engaged, which usually means you are not also on dating sites — includes the following highlights :
- In her bio, Lana says she is looking for a “sincere, sensual, modest, manly” person. She also says that “some wildness would also be welcome.” Please let it sink in that David read this and thought, “Ah, yes. It me.”
- She also says that she doesn’t want to “engage herself in just a quick relation.” No word on whether that means she prefers the slow-moving pace of seven years of only AIM messenger-style chats, but alas.
- Lana describes herself on the site as “dedicated, cheerful, and with a good sense of humor.” She also loves “yachts and sea, cooking, and traveling.” She does not, however, seem to have a preference when it comes to cats.
- She has 36 visible photos on her profile, all which seem to be professionally shot. These photos are visible to everyone, but you can only expand them (which is to say, make them bigger than the size of a quarter) if, of course, you pay money.
Ladies1st-Attractive is, indeed, a website you can visit, but its appearance makes it look more like a site that would give your computer a virus. Like Veronika Love, its concept is pretty straight-forward: Pay money to talk to various Russian (or Ukrainian) women. It’s a little more, shall we say, provocative than Veronika Love, which is reflected in Lana’s bio.
Some highlights from Lana’s profile on this site:
- The site has given her a trust level of “76%,” (along with a literal gold badge) which, despite its intention, doesn’t quite seem like a ringing endorsement.
- It lists her profession as a “financier,” which I guess makes sense when you consider how long she controlled David’s finances, amirite.
- On this site, she says she is looking from a man in the age range of 23-65.
- She also writes that her ideal man would help her with “‘good advice,” and that she wants to “be able to throw myself into his arms. I want him to be sensual and attentive, strong-minded and faithful. He should be ready to share many activities with his woman, to make fun together and explore both souls and bodies of each other with mutual pleasure.” *Shudders*
Hot Matcher is another one of Lana’s online profiles and, for the most part, it’s similar to the others — but a little more basic. There are a couple notable differences in the few bio details it does share. First of all, Svetlana is listed as 32 years old rather than 28 years old.
The only description she has in this profile, though, other than the dozens of photos, is that she’s listed as a “never married lady with gray eyes and fair hair.”
And these online profiles aren’t the only three. Lana has more profiles on sites like AnastasiaDate and LadaDate, too. There are minor differences to all of the above, but the one thing they all have in common is that they are “pay-per-letter” (PPL) or “pay-per-minute” dating sites, as opposed to membership-based dating sites like an eHarmony or a Match.com.
PPL sites aren’t two people paying to have help in finding a match, but rather one person (usually an American man) paying a website minute-by-minute for the privilege of being able to talk to a woman with a profile on the site.
But as Elena Petrova of Elena’s Models, an anti-PPL, membership-based dating site for men to meet Russian and Ukrainian women alleges, the women on these PPL sites don’t have any control of their profiles — even if they’re not using them.
“The agencies control the profile, photo, and the text,” Petrova claims in a blog post. (FYI: A membership to Elena’s Models starts at $19 a month, and includes unlimited instant chat messaging with up to 50 women. If you want to video chat, have direct contact information, or have the profile you’re viewing verified, it will cost more.)
The American Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has several warnings about romance scams, though they do not mention PPL sites specifically. In general, its advice, which David could have used, is:
- Never send money or gifts to a sweetheart you haven’t met in person.
- Take it slowly. Ask questions and look for inconsistent answers.
- Check the person’s photo using your search engine’s “search by image” feature. If the same picture shows up with a different name, that’s a red flag.
- Talk to someone about this new love interest. And pay attention if your friends or family are concerned.
Many PPL dating sites aren’t blind to the fact that some users may think they’re scams and they have language that reassures a potential or current subscriber.
Veronika Love’s FAQ section says that its website and services are “overseen by an anti-scam organization that provides member protection and security.” It goes on to explain that dating “agency managers personally know every lady and we are sure that all of them are real. Before registration we check every lady’s passport and all ladies’ photos represent the facts!”
1st Attractive Ladies says on its site: “Most of the women on our website are represented by local dating agencies, where they contact our representatives in person ... We watch out for suspicious activity ... Unfortunately, due to the large number of profiles, it is impossible to filter out all scammers.”
Hot Matcher didn’t have any anti-scam information listed, but it could be visible if you’re a registered member.
What It All Means For David And Lana
Back to David and Lana, specifically: 90 Day expert Kim tells me, “David and Lana [seem to have] never had any real deep conversations, or at least we see no evidence of that… Lana never mentions David's family and friends, and he never mentions hers,” she says. “They don't appear to know anything about each other.”
Could this be because David has been talking to bots for the better part of a decade, sending a million “mmmms” into the digital void?
“On our latest podcast,” Kim says, her co-host “Kyle and I speculated that it's a pool of women that respond to these guys on these types of sites.” Which would make sense, since, like she said, David and Lana seem to be total strangers.
And if these user reviews on Veronika Love are to be believed, maybe that theory holds water:
“The sheer volume of letters you receive on a daily basis is clearly bot driven,” one user alleged in their review. Another man claimed he did a two-week trial on the site and received 848 messages from interested women.
Another user, Claude F., claims to have tried a very problematic experiment on the site in order to get answers about the legitimacy of the hundreds of messages he received. Forgive the English spelling and grammar errors; here’s his review in his own words:
“I put my real picture and I receive hundreds of answers from beautiful women who are 30 years younger than me...I change my picture, find on the net the picture of the fattest man on the planet, and guess what? Nothing changed... hundred of answers for this fatty,” Claude F. claimed, clearly still bitter about his discovery.
There are, however, positive reviews of Veronika Love, too. Thirty users gave it five stars; 19 gave it one star. One user titled their post “Best site ever!” and wrote: “I was skeptical after reading some bad reviews but this is one of the best Russian brides sites on the web! They are always in touch and they care about their customers and we are setting up a few meetings right now.”
Others tout the realness of the women, how beautiful they are, and how easy the site is to use.
David was quite open about his history with these types of dating sites in a recent Instagram Q&A, saying, “I stopped dating in the U.S.A. 15 years ago. Every time I did I would start thinking about Ukraine, so I stopped trying so my heart was free just in case I went to Ukraine," he said.
"I have dated well over 100 women in Ukraine. Turned down many marriage proposals and have been turned down twice myself.”
Should David just get his own 90 Day spinoff at this point? Would watch.
Where David, Lana, and You and Me Stand Today
When Season 4 of Before the 90 Days ended, David had just pulled an engagement ring out of his leather duster and presented it to Lana just before he boarded a plane back to the U.S. And much to everyone’s surprise, Lana said yes.
On the Sunday, June 7 Tell All, Part One, we hardly got any information about David and Lana, but we did find out that David is in quarantine with a shit ton of juice, that he hasn’t spoken to Lana in six days, and that he knows that her dating profiles are still active on the web.
When Big Ed shouted out over the Zoom call that Lana is on the dating sites because, “It’s a job for her! She gets paid!” David responded: “Get him out of here!”
According to Kim, most people are on Big Ed’s side. “I think viewers universally think that Lana is 100% getting paid for interacting with and keeping David on the site … I think she's getting a cut of the payments being generated by email translations and other charges incurred by men interacting with her on the site,” she says.
“The only person that doesn't believe this,” Kim continues, “is David.”
In the Tell All, Part Two, David said he knows that Lana is still on the dating sites, because, he said, that's how she talks to her friends. She just moved to Kiev, with her sister, and when she gets depressed, she needs to go online and chat with her friends that she's made on the site over the past seven or eight years. Host Shaun Robinson asked for clarification: "These men are actually paying her to be in a friendship with her, correct?"
David replied: "They're not paying her, they're paying the site, by the minute, to talk to her, yes."
Robinson pressed: "You still, to this day, don't think she's scamming you?" David replied: "I know she's not scamming me."
Then he went on to say that he's been to Ukraine over 20 times since the '90s (!), that he's chatted with over 1,000 women online (!), that he was inspired to find love in Ukraine after receiving a catalog (!) in the mail (!) 30 or so years ago that enticed him to visit the country to attend a "social" (!) where he might meet an eligible Ukrainian woman (!).
Will we ever know if David knew what he was getting into when he started using PPL sites? Did he read all the negative reviews? Did he ever Google Lana? Did he see the theory on Reddit that Lana may already have a family — and that her nephew might actually be her son?
None of it matters. When Robinson asked David if he and Lana are still together, he said: "Today, I would say, we're not together."
But, wait, is he still engaged to Lana? "Yes."

Legal Issues with AI-Generated Art
AI-generated art has raised several legal concerns due to its unique nature. One of the main issues is determining the ownership and copyright of the artwork. Since AI systems are responsible for creating the art, it becomes challenging to identify the original creator.
Another legal issue is the potential infringement of existing intellectual property rights. AI algorithms can be trained on copyrighted material, leading to the creation of derivative works that may violate the rights of the original creators.
Furthermore, AI-generated art can also raise questions about the authenticity and originality of the artwork. Without a human artist’s involvement, some argue that AI art lacks the emotional and creative elements traditionally associated with artistic expression.
Legal Issues with AI-Generated Images
In addition to AI-generated art, AI-generated images have their own set of legal concerns. One significant issue is the potential misuse of AI to create deepfake images, which can be used to deceive or manipulate individuals.
Deepfake images raise privacy and consent issues, as individuals’ likeness can be used without their permission. This can lead to reputational harm and the violation of personal rights.
Moreover, AI-generated images can also infringe on existing intellectual property rights. If an AI system is trained on copyrighted images, it may produce similar or derivative works that could be considered infringements.
Does AI Violate Intellectual Property Rights?
AI itself does not violate intellectual property rights. However, the use of AI algorithms to create art or images can potentially lead to copyright infringement if the AI system is trained on copyrighted material.
It is crucial to consider the source of the training data and ensure that the AI system does not produce works that are too similar to existing copyrighted works.
Is AI-Generated Art Legal?
The legality of AI-generated art is still a subject of debate and interpretation. While AI systems can create unique and visually appealing artwork, the absence of human involvement raises questions about the artistic process and the emotional elements associated with art.
From a legal perspective, the ownership and copyright of AI-generated art can be challenging to determine. However, some argue that if a human artist is involved in the AI’s creative process, they should be recognized as the author and holder of the rights.
Ultimately, the legality of AI-generated art may vary depending on jurisdiction and the specific circumstances surrounding its creation.

There’s a lot of firsts this summer. My family’s first garden, my youngest’s first sleepover, my family’s first time floating on a mountain river and our first time to host an 80’s party.
A few summers ago, my oldest asked if we could have a party. Not just a regular old party with friends but a themed party where everyone dressed in costume. At the time he was really into Greek Mythology, thanks to Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson novels. The date also happened to be the summer solstice, so essentially we had a family-friendly toga party.
Last year we decided to have our themed party on July 7. In case you didn’t know, July 7 happens to be Ringo Starr’s birthday, which is a great excuse for a summer-themed party, if you have a certain pre-teen Beatles fan in your home.
Unsurprisingly, when I asked my oldest what he wanted to do most this summer, his reply…a party. He wasn’t sure on a theme though. I turned to the trusty old Google machine and looked up historic events on his proposed date, July 12th. There wasn’t much that excited me or my son. In 1954 President Eisenhower put forward a plan for an interstate highway system – I mean that’s pretty awesome if you’ve ever driven a family of five anywhere! In 1976 the first “Family Feud” game show made its debut. But none of these seemed to interest my 11-year-old son.
Then the light bulb went off – what about the day after, which would be Friday, July 13th?!
My immediate thought, having been his age during the 1980’s, was Jason, Freddie, Chucky – how about an 80s party! Of course with younger children, we wouldn’t make it scary. But the scary trio from the 1980’s were my muses.
The five days leading up to the party, my son requested that we not listen to any music past 1989. That wasn’t such a difficult task for us, but there are some B-side gems out there that we’ve all forgotten about, that will make you question your entire childhood. We also prepped by watching lots of music videos, which can only be found on YouTube. Remember music videos? Is there still a channel for that?
There’s a lot to a decade, ten years to be precise. Movies, music, cultural events, historic events – some I vividly remember – the Berlin Wall, Mary Lou Retton, unmarked “white vans”, the 1984 New Orleans World Fair…so many uplifting moments. But as an adult, I know now some of the negative moments during that decade, that I was too young to comprehend, or were glossed over by childhood memories. I know my children will look back to the decade of their youth and learn of the negative and troublesome events – my oldest is already much too aware. As parents, at some point, we have to have those conversations about the world around us and do our best to let our children develop their own opinions and thoughts about current events. My husband and I are proud that our oldest son is not only tuned in but also shows compassion to what is happening in the world around us.
But you know, sometimes, with all the chaos in the world, and our own parental responsibilities, jobs, boards, PTOs, IEPs, bills, etc…it’s nice to escape to our youth, with our own youth, and Fight for Your Right to Party.

Now, if you’re looking for a soup that packs in the veggies, look no further than this recipe for homemade vegetable soup.
This vegetable soup’s loaded with a mix of flavorful, colorful veggies that are full of savory flavor swimming in a full-flavored tomato-based broth.
You don’t need any fancy ingredients for this fantastic vegetable soup that takes only 45 minutes to make from start to finish.

This rice soup is loaded with flavor and savory ingredients such as wild rice, butter, celery, carrots, onion, vegetable broth, evaporated milk, thyme, and salt.
And did you know that wild rice is a special kind of grass that’s usually grown in the Midwest? It’s very hearty, with a chewer texture than white rice, and does not get soft or soggy even under high temperatures.
I have to admit. I was one of those folks who thought they didn’t like split pea soup until I tried this recipe and had my mind blown!

Are you tired of your laptop battery draining quickly and leaving you constantly searching for a power outlet? Look no further! I’ve got the perfect solution for you – a reliable replacement battery for HP laptops. With this powerful upgrade, you can say goodbye to low battery anxiety and hello to uninterrupted productivity.
When it comes to laptop batteries, HP is known for its quality and performance. Whether you’re a student, professional, or casual user, having a reliable battery is essential to ensure that your laptop stays powered up throughout the day. With an HP replacement battery, you can trust that it will provide long-lasting power and keep up with your busy schedule.
Battery for Laptops HP
Long-Lasting Battery Life
One of the key reasons why you need a reliable replacement battery for your HP laptop is to enjoy long-lasting battery life. A high-quality replacement battery can provide you with extended usage time, allowing you to work or play without constantly worrying about running out of power. Imagine being able to work on important projects or binge-watch your favorite TV shows without interruptions caused by a dying battery.
Investing in a reliable replacement battery ensures that you have the power you need to keep going throughout the day. With advancements in technology, some replacement batteries are designed to offer even better performance than the original ones that came with your laptop. They are built with high-capacity cells and optimized power management systems, enabling them to deliver superior longevity and efficiency.
Compatibility with HP Laptop Models
Another crucial reason to opt for a reliable replacement battery specifically designed for HP laptops is compatibility. Not all batteries are created equal, and using an incompatible or generic one may lead to compatibility issues or poor performance. By choosing a replacement battery from a trusted manufacturer that specializes in providing batteries for HP laptops, you can ensure seamless integration and optimal performance.
Reliable replacement batteries are engineered to meet the exact specifications of various HP laptop models. This means they fit perfectly into your laptop’s battery compartment and function flawlessly with its internal circuitry. Whether you own an HP Pavilion, Envy, EliteBook, or any other series, there’s likely a compatible replacement battery available that will restore your laptop’s power capabilities effectively.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Laptop Battery
Battery Capacity and Performance
When selecting a replacement battery for your HP laptop, one of the key factors to consider is its capacity and performance. The battery capacity determines how long your laptop can run on a single charge. It is usually measured in milliampere-hours (mAh) or watt-hours (Wh). The higher the capacity, the longer your laptop will be able to operate without needing to be plugged in.
To ensure optimal performance, it’s important to choose a battery that matches or exceeds the original battery’s specifications. Manufacturers often provide information about the expected battery life based on average usage patterns. This can give you an idea of how long you can expect your laptop to run before needing to recharge.
Manufacturer’s Reputation and Warranty
Another crucial aspect when choosing a laptop battery is considering the reputation of the manufacturer and their warranty policy. Opting for batteries from reputable manufacturers ensures better quality control and reliability. Established brands often invest heavily in research and development to deliver superior products.
In addition, take note of the warranty provided by the manufacturer. A solid warranty demonstrates confidence in their product’s durability and performance. Look for warranties that cover defects or premature failure within a reasonable timeframe so that you have peace of mind knowing that you’re protected against any unexpected issues.
In conclusion, opting for a reliable replacement battery for your HP laptop is essential if you want to enjoy long-lasting battery life, ensure compatibility with your specific model, and benefit from an easy installation process. By choosing a trusted manufacturer that specializes in producing batteries designed specifically for HP laptops, you can power up your device with confidence and avoid any unnecessary inconveniences caused by unreliable or incompatible batteries.

Four-time gold medalist Simone Biles revealed she was sexually assaulted by the Team USA gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar. The 20-year-old said in a statement, “I too am one of the many survivors that was sexually abused by Larry Nassar. Please believe me when I say it was a lot harder to first speak those words out loud than it is now to put them on paper. There are many reasons that I have been reluctant to share my story, but I know now it is not my fault. This behavior is completely unacceptable, disgusting, and abusive, especially coming from someone whom I was TOLD to trust. As I continue to work through the pain, I kindly ask everyone to respect my privacy. This is a process, and one that I need more time to work through.”
Aziz Ansari Speaks Out
Over the weekend, an anonymous woman came forward on a site called Babe.net, claiming Aziz Ansari was inappropriate with her on a date. Although she never told him to stop, she did says she gave the writer and actor “non verbal clues,” you can read the full story here.
Aziz released a statement, “In September of last year, I met a woman at a party. We exchanged numbers. We texted back and forth and eventually went on a date. We went out to dinner, and afterwards we ended up engaging in sexual activity, which by all indications was completely consensual.” He continued, “The next day, I got a text from her saying that although ‘it may have seemed okay,; upon further reflection, she felt uncomfortable. It was true that everything did seem okay to me, so when I heard that it was not the case for her, I was surprised and concerned. I took her words to heart and responded privately after taking the time to process what she had said. I continue to support the movement that is happening in our culture. It is necessary and long overdue.”
We are already seeing the horror of the Trump administration’s anti-immigration policies. On Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. day a Michigan man was deported to Mexico after living here for 30 years. He moved to the U.S. when he was 10 years old and had been trying since he was an adult to get legal status but because he was born one year earlier, he didn’t qualify to apply for DACA. The Obama administration gave him extensions and the Trump administration kicked him out. According to Detroit Free Press, “He has no criminal record — not even a traffic ticket — and pays taxes every year.”

By Senator, Lena C. Taylor
With the November elections behind us, the eye towards campaign promises loom heavily with voters. Resoundingly and from coast to coast, tangible access to affordable health care topped the list of most polls asking voters what issues they cared most about. In noting the recent election of Keith Ellison as Minnesota’s Attorney General, he has already begun listening sessions on one of those health-related issues-prescription drug prices. Ellison, a former Congressman and Deputy Director of the Democratic National Committee, is planning to continue a lawsuit began by his predecessor, Lori Swanson, against the manufacturers of insulin. He also has committed to developing a task force to explore how to address high drug prices. In reviewing a recent contact from a state resident to my senate office, Ellison’s plans were top of mind.
In her letter, the constituent lamented the continuing inability to keep up with the rising cost of her husband’s prescription drugs. The writer questioned what we were doing as state legislators to address the issue. Additionally, as local residents start a new health year, they are surely facing increased health care co-payments, prescription costs, and painful decisions about how to pay for these changes. To make matters worse, at the beginning of 2019, nearly 60 drug makers raised their prices on nearly 300 drugs. We know this because states like California require drug companies to provide notification if they intend to raise the US list price on any drug by more than 16 percent over a two-year period. Along these lines, is my absolute frustration at the manufacturer, Mylan, who raised the price for EpiPen, an epinephrine auto-injector used to treat allergy reactions, from $57 in 2007 to about $500 currently.
So, the likely question is what can taxpayers do to stop these increases in often life-saving medications.
The one thing that consumers need to understand is that in the United States, drug pricing is not regulated. It is left up to the market to decide what prices it will tolerate. Insurance companies and major agencies are left to negotiate drug prices for themselves. This is not done anywhere else in the world, for the most part. Other countries have government agencies or a committee that either negotiate drug prices or decide not to cover drugs whose prices they feel are too high. Another issue the amount of time it takes for a generic version of a drug to be approved or in some cases, allowed at all. We do have drug monopolies in this country that are enabled by the lack of intervention by the government. Those monopolies include pricing and the continued mergers in the pharmaceutical industry. Bottom line, even though there is legislation that was offered in Congress last session to begin to tackle this issue, until all congressional members get serious about making these drugs affordable, we will continue to deal with this problem. Therefore, the one thing we can do is call our federal legislators to demand a resolution.

Q. Is it permissible to wear a Football T-shirt that has the logo of a beer company on it?
A. In terms of Shariah, it is not permitted for a Muslim to wear any clothing that advertises or promotes beer, alcohol or any unlawful activity.
Thus, it is not permitted for a Muslim to wear a T-shirt that bears the logo of a beer company on it as this would be advertising and promoting the brewery company and industry.

The Olive Table extra virgin olive oils are premium oils produced by our family in the southwestern part of Greece known as Messenia. The Olive Table’s mission to bring fresh, high quality Greek oil to the U.S marketplace at a reasonable cost to the consumer and to build a reputation based on quality products and a superior level of customer service.
And so far our mission is being accomplished…within a year of launching our first product, both our Private Reserve and Organic Early Harvest oils were endorsed by the Savantes New York 2013 tasting program. Established in 2001, International Savantes presents training courses and events, and promotes excellence in extra virgin olive oil. The first Savantes program was presented in Melbourne, Australia in 2001 and courses have since been presented in New York, New Zealand, South Africa, Spain, Italy and the United Kingdom by a range of international olive oil and culinary experts.
As endorsed by the Savantes program, The Olive Table Extra Virgin Olive Oils tasting profiles are described below.
The Olive Table Private Reserve Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a fresh green aromatic oil that has a delicate to medium intensity. The aroma is one of dried herbs along with apple, tomato and dried mint. On the palate, the taste is one of dried herbs along with a slight chicory bitterness and mild radish heat with a nutty finish. It is balanced and harmonious and has a subtlety which is very attractive on the palate.
The Olive Table Organic Early Harvest Single Estate Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a balanced, complex and harmonious extra virgin olive oil that exhibits differentiation from other Greek oils of this style. The aroma is that of dried herbs with a hint of fresh green herbs and honey. On the palate, the fruitiness contains a dried herbal taste with radicchio bitterness and mild radish pepperiness with a nutty finish. The style is also delicate bordering on medium.
And this is what food critics, retailers and consumers have to say about our olive oil:
“…very fresh and both oils have really wonderful texture – buttery, melting, thick but light.”
“As a lifelong consumer of specialty oils, particularly varieties of olives from everywhere, it [The Olive Table Private Reserve] truly is outstanding in cooking, as a marinade base and in dressings with vinegar and citrus juices! I was startled by its lilting, prickly bitterness on the tongue which quickly gives way to a subtle, lingering, slightly sweet and gently-peppered aftertaste revealing a richness that is rarely found– even in the most prized artisan oils. It has become my favorite heated with smashed garlic and coriander seed for dipping. The beautiful color enhances what is a unique flavor and makes a fine presentation on any table.” – Portia Arthur, Owner, The Fortunate Cookie
I sampled your oil at the Woodstock Farmer’s Market this morning, and immediately came home with my baguette and the oil and made myself the simplest of snacks. I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy this oil… it’s so fresh and lively, and I know I will use it on everything.” – Heather Steliga, Woodstock Farmers Market customer
“…smooth, mild but with a “pepper” finish. Clean. When I took a sip, the first impression was of a very smooth, buttery and mild flavor and then I got a little bite at the end. In fact it was quite peppery…we use a lot of olive oil in cooking and just drizzling over food, etc. and I would enthusiastically recommend your oil to anyone looking for a superior olive oil, and again I’m Italian and of course biased towards the Italian olives!” – Gina Auriema, Woodstock, Vermont
“I have discovered your wonderful oil. I used to order cases several times a year from a company in California. But now I am a convert to Greece, so to speak.” – Alix Klingenstein, Pomfret, Vermont

Aquariums are captivating microcosms of aquatic life, offering a window into the enchanting world beneath the water's surface. Whether you're a seasoned aquarist or just starting with your first tank, you've likely encountered the persistent green menace known as algae. Algae growth can turn your once-clear aquatic haven into a murky, unsightly mess if left unchecked. However, with the right knowledge and a few proactive measures, you can prevent algae from taking over your aquarium and ensure that your fish and plants thrive in a healthy environment.
Understanding Algae: The Uninvited Guest
Before we dive into the strategies to prevent algae growth, it's crucial to understand what algae are and why they find their way into aquariums.
Algae are simple, plant-like organisms that can range from microscopic single-celled forms to large, multicellular structures. They thrive in aquatic environments when conditions favor their growth, and aquariums provide an ideal habitat. Algae are fueled by light, nutrients, and carbon dioxide (CO2), all of which are abundant in aquariums.
Here's why algae become a common concern in aquariums:
Light: Most aquariums are well-lit to support the growth of aquatic plants. However, this same light can promote algae growth if not controlled.
Nutrients: Fish waste, uneaten food, and decaying plant matter release nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus into the water. Algae thrive on these nutrients.
CO2: During the day, fish produce CO2 as they respire, which can contribute to algae growth if not balanced.
Now that we've unraveled the mystery of why algae love aquariums, let's explore how to prevent their unwelcome takeover.
Strategies for Preventing Algae Growth
1. Proper Lighting:
Use a Timer: Install a timer for your aquarium lights to ensure a consistent lighting schedule. Aim for 8-10 hours of light per day for a freshwater planted tank, adjusting as needed based on the specific needs of your plants and algae growth.
Choose the Right Bulbs: Opt for aquarium-specific bulbs that emit light within the optimal spectrum for plant growth while minimizing algae-promoting wavelengths.
Consider Dimmers: Some advanced lighting systems allow you to adjust light intensity throughout the day, mimicking natural sunlight patterns and potentially reducing algae growth.
2. Maintain Water Quality:
Regular Water Changes: Perform routine water changes to remove excess nutrients and dilute waste. Aim for 10-20% water changes every 1-2 weeks, depending on your tank's size and stocking.
Clean Substrate: Gently vacuum the substrate during water changes to remove debris and decaying matter that can release nutrients.
Use Purified Water: If your tap water contains excessive nutrients or impurities, consider using purified or RO/DI (reverse osmosis/deionized) water for water changes.
3. Limit Feeding:
Feed Sparingly: Avoid overfeeding your fish, as uneaten food contributes to nutrient buildup. Offer only what your fish can consume in a few minutes and remove any uneaten food promptly.
Use High-Quality Food: Invest in high-quality fish food with balanced nutrition to minimize waste and excess nutrients.
4. Aquatic Plants:
Plant Density: Maintain a healthy density of aquatic plants to outcompete algae for nutrients and block light from reaching the water's surface.
Fast-Growing Plants: Include fast-growing plants like hornwort or water sprite to consume excess nutrients and shade the aquarium.
Regular Pruning: Trim and prune your plants regularly to prevent overgrowth, which can lead to dead or decaying plant matter that fuels algae.
5. Algae Eaters:
Introduce Algae-Eating Fish: Certain fish species, such as Siamese algae eaters, bristlenose plecos, and otocinclus catfish, are natural algae eaters and can help keep algae in check.
Algae-Eating Invertebrates: Consider adding shrimp (like Amano or cherry shrimp) and snails (such as nerite snails) that graze on algae.
Clean-Up Crew: Assemble a "clean-up crew" of algae-eating creatures to help control algae in your tank.
6. CO2 Injection:
CO2 Control: If you have a heavily planted tank, consider injecting CO2 to promote plant growth, which can help reduce available nutrients for algae. However, be cautious and monitor CO2 levels closely to avoid harming your fish.
Excel and Other Carbon Supplements: Liquid carbon supplements like Excel can provide an alternative to injected CO2 for promoting plant growth and algae control.
7. Avoid Direct Sunlight:
- Tank Placement: Keep your aquarium away from direct sunlight, as this can encourage excessive algae growth due to the abundance of light.
8. Use Algae Control Products Sparingly:
- Algaecides: While chemical algaecides are available, they should be used as a last resort and only when other methods have failed. They can harm aquatic life if not used with caution.
Remember that a balanced approach is key to preventing algae growth. It may take some trial and error to find the right combination of strategies that work for your specific aquarium.
Monitoring and Adaptation
Consistent monitoring of your aquarium's conditions is crucial in the battle against algae. Here are some monitoring tips:
Algae Species: Familiarize yourself with the types of algae in your aquarium, as different species may require specific control methods.
Water Parameters: Regularly test and maintain proper water parameters, including pH, ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates, to ensure optimal conditions for fish and plants.
Nutrient Levels: Test for nutrient levels, particularly nitrates and phosphates, and take action if they exceed recommended levels.
Algae Growth Patterns: Observe when and where algae tend to grow in your aquarium. This can provide valuable insights into the causes and potential solutions.
Plant Health: Keep an eye on the health of your aquatic plants. Healthy, thriving plants are your best defense against algae.
Conclusion: A Pristine Aquarium Awaits
Preventing algae growth in your aquarium requires patience, diligence, and a good understanding of your specific setup. By carefully managing light, maintaining water quality, and implementing preventive measures, you can create an aquatic environment that thrives with vibrant fish and lush plants while keeping algae at bay. Remember that every aquarium is unique, so don't be discouraged by setbacks. With time and experience, you'll master the art of maintaining a pristine aquarium where your aquatic companions can flourish. Happy fishkeeping, and may your underwater world be a source of joy and beauty!

Before the Supreme Court overturned DOMA, discriminatory policies cost same-sex married couples as much as $500,000 over a lifetime.
JAISAL NOOR, TRNN PRODUCER: Welcome to The Real News Network. I’m Jaisal Noor in Baltimore.
In what’s being hailed as a historic day for marriage equality, the Supreme Court issued two major decisions Tuesday, overturning the Defense of Marriage Act, or DOMA, the 1996 law that blocks federal marriage recognition and benefits for same-sex couples in states that allow gay marriage, and in a separate decision, it effectively restored same-sex marriage in California, making it the 13th such state.
Now joining us is Lee Badgett. She’s a professor of economics and the director of the Center for Public Policy and Administration at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. She also serves as the research director of the Williams Institute on Sexual Orientation Law and Public Policy at the UCLA’s school of law. Her most recent book is When Gay People Get Married: What Happens When Societies Legalize Same-Sex Marriage.
Thank you for joining us.
M. V. LEE BADGETT, PROF. ECONOMICS, CPPA DIRECTOR, UMASS AMHERST: Thanks for having me.
NOOR: Can we start off by just getting your reaction to these two historic rulings [inaud.] Supreme Court?
BADGETT: They’re very important. They will affect the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. There are about 100,000 same-sex couples who’ve gotten married in the U.S. but still haven’t been able to tap into the full rights and benefits of marriage, and the DOMA ruling opens that up today. And then there are 100,000 couples who live in California who had a very brief window of opportunity to get married, and a bunch of them did, but there are still many more who want to get married. So it’s going to change things dramatically for same-sex couples in the U.S.
NOOR: So you’ve studied the economic implications of same-sex marriage. Talk about what benefits DOMA blocked same-sex couples from getting.
BADGETT: They’re quite extensive, actually, everything from being treated equally in the tax system, which had a number of impacts. In fact, the case that the Supreme Court heard today involved a woman who had been married to her partner of many decades. And they got married in Canada. And when her wife died, she had to pay $363,000 in estate taxes that she wouldn’t have had to pay had she been married to a man. So that’s probably the far end of the spectrum in terms of the actual quantitative side of things.
But for same-sex couples in general, many of them would pay less in taxes if they were recognized by the federal government and could file jointly. Same-sex couples who are married will have to pay taxes on the value of insurance that they get from one of the partner’s employers. That adds up to an average of about $1,000 a year for same-sex couples. They don’t have the ability to get Social Security survivor benefits or spousal benefits when they retire or when one dies. If they are federal employees, they don’t have the ability to put their same-sex spouse on health insurance or to cover them through retirement benefits. The list is very, very long.
A couple of New York Times reporters actually tried to add up what all of these costs were. And they took into account some of those things that I mentioned, as well as having to hire accountants and lawyers to try to navigate between federal and state law. And they said that in the worst case scenario, it could cost a same-sex couple and their family over half a million dollars over the course of a lifetime. And that’s a big difference. That’s a half a million dollar difference [same-sex] couples would not have to pay. So this has a really big effect on the ability to access these important benefits that help support families.
NOOR: And do states that allow same-sex marriage, can they expect other economic benefits?
BADGETT: Yeah. I think the states that allow same-sex couples to marry will find that their citizens will be in better shape economically, which is good for their children, it’s good for those couples, and so it’s good for the state as a whole. I think it’s also likely that now that marriage will come with those benefits that we’ll see more same-sex couples actually getting married, and I think that’s a good thing for the stability of those families. So I think that’s the impact on the couples and the state.
We do know from research that same-sex couples spend a lot of money on their weddings when they get married. So those new weddings in California and some of the other states will mean tens of thousands, millions of dollars in new spending that’ll help create jobs, that’ll generate some more tax revenue. So those are all things that are good for the state. And we know that state budgets are actually improved by recognizing same-sex couples and giving them the right to marry. So from an economic perspective it’s really a win-win situation all around.
NOOR: Now, for the 37 states that still do not allow same-sex marriage–and it’s important to remember that the Supreme Court’s decision does not affect those 37 states. It’s still up to those states to decide whether they want to allow same-sex marriage or not. Do you think the repeal of the Defense of Marriage Act will maybe cause at least some people to maybe consider at a time of economic depression to maybe reconsider this, the ban on same-sex marriage?
BADGETT: I think it will certainly put more pressure on them to do that. Now that same-sex couples will have the right to full marriage when the states allow them to, will mean that there are additional incentives to try to push states to open up marriage of same-sex couples.
It’s still actually an open question, though, about what will happen to couples who get married in a place like Massachusetts and then go back to Texas or Florida. Will the federal government recognize those marriages or not? We don’t really know the answer to that question yet. I think it’s something the Obama administration will have to sort out, and they will have to decide how to interpret that Supreme Court decision and decide which couples will be able to tap into the federal benefits.
So I think overall if that happens we’ll see many, many more couples getting married across the country. And I think–as I said, I mean, I think even states that don’t want same-sex couples to get married, if they have same-sex couples who are able to marry and those families were strengthened, I think that would be good for every state that has same-sex couples. And, actually, they all have them.
NOOR: Well, thank you for joining us.
BADGETT: Thanks for having me.
NOOR: And thank you for joining us on The Real News Network.

Opportunity Zones in the Real World: The Retail Coach and Manassas Capital Connect the Dots on Opportunity Zones
A lot of articles are written about Opportunity Zones; many confusing and some just wrong. The Retail Coach has partnered with experts on this subject – Manassas Capital and together we will answer some real-world questions. We will touch on the basics briefly and then give examples of how Opportunity Zones can be an opportunity for you. If you are looking for other investment options, you may want to try investing in VT markets.
To buy a stock, you used to have to call an individual known as a stockbroker, who placed the order on your behalf. This process was complex — and expensive. If you’re ready to jump into gold investment projects, we’re here to help. Fortunately for everyday investors, the industry has changed dramatically over the past couple of decades. Our team of experts at cradio has compiled a list of the best trading platforms and what you should look for to help you get started.
- Opportunity Zones were created as part of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act to encourage investment in low-income urban and rural communities nationwide.
- State governors designated the zones based on census tracts. There are more than 8,700 qualified Opportunity Zones across all states, territories, and the District of Columbia.
The mechanism to encourage investors to invest is a tax incentive. Looking for a guidance to focus well on your investment, then check out this finance mastermind here for great help!
Here’s how it works:
- An investor sells an investment and receives capital gains.
- He has 180 days to invest those gains in an Opportunity Zone Fund.
- If, for example, he has a profit of $100K from the sale of his investment and invests that in an Opportunity Fund this year, he pays no tax on that $100K this year.
- After five years his taxable amount is reduced by 10%. If he sells his shares in the Opportunity Fund, he pays taxes on $90K. If he stays in, the five-year mark just lets him know his 10% reduction in taxes has been earned.
- After seven years he has earned a 15% reduction on the taxable amount. So, he pays tax on $85K. He writes a check to pay taxes at the seven-year mark. Now here’s where the tax incentives get really interesting. If the investor stays in the Opportunity Fund for 10 years then the profit made from the Opportunity Fund investment is tax free!
Here’s an example. One big focus for The Retail Coach is revitalizing downtowns. Many cities have
downtowns and many of those are historic districts. There are vacant, older buildings that need
refurbishing, bringing up to code and modern amenities.
- An Opportunity Fund buys one of these buildings for $100K. Then fund managers Sydney fixes it up within three years (The law requires you spend as much on refurbishing as you spent on the building, minus the value of the land.)
- Retail tenants and restaurants move into the building and start paying rent. Maybe apartments are built on the upper floors and residents start paying rent.
- It increases in value to $300K in 10 years.
- It is sold after 10 years.
- That $300K is tax free!
Distressed areas normally have a tough time attracting investment. Opportunity Zones encourage investors to make a difference and invest in their community, region or state without the investment being only charitable in nature. The tax incentive helps make the return from these investments higher. But the project still needs to make sense even if these incentives were not available. If you want to learn some other modern tricks that will help you raise and protect your investments profits, find some help with James Dooley.
Another quick example.
A small town has a low-income, blighted area with some boarded up buildings in a designated Opportunity Zone.
- An investor who owns some apartments sells his apartments and receives capital gains.
- He decides to buy a McDonalds franchise because he has received market research from The Retail Coach that tells him this would do well in this town.
- He sets up an Opportunity Fund.
- The fund buys one of the buildings, fixes it up according to the requirements already mentioned in the previous example.
- It becomes an income producing business.
- The investor receives the tax incentives.
- The investor can sell building and the Opportunity Zone business in 10 years. The profit on
both is tax free.
There are creative ideas and solutions to make Opportunity Zones work. Many of these Opportunity funds will be small groups of state, regional and local investors. As in the example above, it might be one investor.
Other examples of Opportunity Fund investments include building a strip center from the ground up, a convention center, ball fields, schools, co-working spaces, incubators, workforce housing and much more.
The Retail Coach and Manassas Capital consult with cities, investors, developers, retailers, businesses, chambers and EDOs to educate and provide guidance to take advantage of this exciting opportunity. The consulting includes identifying projects, finding investors, helping cities develop a plan for projects, advice on layering incentives, setting up Opportunity Funds and helping manage those funds.
The Retail Coach, founded in 2000, is a national retail consulting, market research and development firm that combines strategy, technology, and creative expertise to develop and deliver high-impact retail recruitment and development strategies to local governments, chambers of commerce, and economic
development organizations. They have experience in leading municipalities in over 500 communities in 35 states.
Manassas Capital serves as an investment advisory firm assisting investors and local governments to develop a strategic plan to capitalize on their Opportunity Zone designation. Manassas also provides developers and investors with fund raising and fund management services and serves the investment community as a critical source of proprietary investment opportunities that will create long term capital appreciation due to the unprecedented tax advantages created through the Opportunity Zone program.

Abstract: The addition of graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) to a paraffin-based solvent, eicosane was performed at various wt.% and subsequently the synthesized GNP/eicosane composites were analyzed by a variety of machines. The characterization of the GNP/eicosane composites was performed by the TPS technique for the measurement of thermal conductivity from 10°C to 35°C. At a wt.% of 10 GNP filler the composite had a thermal conductivity four times that of unfilled eicosane. Additional methods of analysis involved TEM, SEM and AFM among others. The amount of GNP filler didn't affect the melting point of the composite, although increasing amounts of GNP decreased the energy storage capacity of the composite slightly, which is acceptable in return for the increased thermal conductivity.

Pinocchio toy theatre circus illustrated for Benjamin Pollock’s Toyshop by Hannah Dyson. ‘The Adventures of Pinocchio’ was written by Carlo Collodi and first published in Italy in 1881. The original story was a dark cautionary tale for children and very far from the animated film version that most of know and love. However, never fear this version tells the story through scene changes and characters with a happy ending!
The Pinocchio toy theatre circus is a complete story to cut-out and make. The pack contains 7 sheets with scenes from the Ringmaster’s marionette show, Toyland circus and Pinocchio rescuing Gepetto from the giant whale. Set up your theatre and reimagine the story with the characters included. Easy to follow instructions and a brief story are included. You will need scissors and glue to construct your theatre so whilst the completed theatre is suitable for young children of 3+, the cut-out and making needs to be done by an adult or supervised older child. We recommend this is as a sit down at the table project for adults and children to do together.
Cutting out paper models aids fine motor skills, eye hand coordination and visual perception in children. Constructing a paper theatre from start to finish will help with focus and attention and at the end of the project the child can fire up the imagination with a story in 3-D to play with.
- Illustrator: Hannah Dyson
- Assembled size: 23 x 25 x 9 cm

- Material: A4 Colour Prints on 300gsm card
- Age Suitability: 6+ for playing (adult supervision needed for making)

Top Five Reasons to Love Beach Plum Farm
It’s October, and Mother Nature has (finally!) given us a reason to celebrate autumn with tumbling temps and falling foliage. If you’re looking for a way to pumpkin-spice it up at the shore this fall, look no further than the Beach Plum Farm in Cape May.
Beach Plum is a 62-acre working farm engaged in regenerative agricultural practices to provide farm-to-table ingredients for area restaurants owned by the Cape Resorts Group. The group’s founding partners were inspired to develop a local food source after research revealed historic Congress Hall once served fresh produce grown on its own farm. Wanting to provide that same level of authenticity, the Beach Plum Farm was created. Today, Beach Plum produces over 100 varieties of fruits and vegetables picked and served the same day at Cape Resort restaurants, including the Ebbitt Room, Blue Pig Tavern, Rusty Nail, The Boiler Room, Louisa’s Cafe and more. Located a mile from the ocean and less than two miles from the restaurants it serves, Beach Plum Farm provides fresh ingredients for salads and side-dishes that faithfully compliment seafood plucked from the ocean that same morning as well. The farm also sources eggs, chicken and pork from heritage hogs.
But the Beach Plum is much more than just a working farm—it is also a market, a kitchen and a beautiful destination for visitors to the Cape who are looking for some off-beach fun. Here are our top five reasons why Beach Plum Farm is the place to be this fall (or any time of the year!)
1. You can bike here
The Beach Plum Farm is nestled in the center of the Cape, accessible by flat, easy-to-navigate country roads. In fall, you will be treated to a beautiful display of foliage along the tree-lined roads. In fact, the drive to Beach Plum is gorgeous at any time of the year. With its location less than two miles from the inns and resorts of Cape May, the ride is easy for all ages and abilities.
2. You can eat here
Inside the beautiful Beach Plum barn, you can start your morning with delicious breakfast sandwiches and freshly squeezed fruit and veggie juices ordered from the walk-up rustic kitchen window. At lunch, you can dine on fresh salads and sandwiches while you sit on a patio and soak in the beautiful outdoors. On select dates in October and November, you can enjoy an intimate Fall Farm-To-Table Dinner featuring local chefs who will serve up dishes using ingredients harvested that day. Dine under the stars or in the festive hoop house and enjoy meals prepared that day including farm-raised meats, organic produce and herbs. Can’t get here this fall? No worries—the Beach Plum Farm runs special dining events throughout the year, including their Holiday Farm Dinners in the hoop house, under pine garland and twinkling lights in an intimate setting. Summer events include special barbeques and pig roasts, and many more events throughout the year.
3. You can shop here
A two-story market provides visitors with the opportunity to purchase fresh produce. Select from items currently in season such as apples, squash and other types of fall produce. You’ll also find beautiful items handcrafted by local artisans, as well as an array of farm-inspired merchandise. Local delicacies such as jams and honey are also available. In fall, you can pick your own pumpkins and other harvest-themed items and decorative elements.
4. You can bring your family here
The Beach Plum Farm provides fun family-oriented activities for all ages. You can take a farm tour, enjoy a horseback ride around the grounds and visit the animals that call this quaint farm home. Family fun is planned during the holidays and throughout the year, making Beach Plum Farm a definite must-do for year-round family outings down the shore!
5. You can sleep here Imagine waking up to the sound of a crowing rooster on your Cape May beach vacation! Beach Plum offers comfy accommodations in six historic cottages and barns located on farm grounds where nights can be spent around a fire, gazing at the star-studded sky. During your stay, you’ll have use of golf carts or bicycles to get around, and your fridge will be stocked with eggs and meats for you to cook yourself (or you can forego the cooking and eat in the barn at the farm kitchen). Each residence includes a cooks’ kitchen, living room, dining area, screened porch, washer/dryer and wood stove, as well as signature bedding and complimentary WIFI. In season, guests have access to the farm’s swimming pool and use of Congress Hall’s beach service.
In addition to all this, Beach Plum Farm is a great destination for meetings, reunions and weddings.
With so many options for visitors, the Beach Plum Farm is a must-see this season. The Beach Plum Farm is open daily, 8:00 am – 5:00 pm. Dining events are by reservation only.

There are 378 Masters Of Wine in the world (which is different from a Master Sommelier). Total. Tim Hanni is one of those 378 people, and one of the first two resident Americans to complete the rigorous exam required to earn the title. In short, he knows his stuff, and I am confident he’d be cool with that colorful language because he’s got a bit of a knack for the art himself. He demonstrated both his areas of expertise in a recent speech, during when he said, “We need to start a campaign to stop wine and food pairing as we’ve created a lot of bullshit around the idea.”
Forgive the GIF, but it’s warranted:
The Drinks Business reports that Hanni was speaking “passionately” at January’s 2019 Sauvignon Blanc Celebration in Marlborough. The speech concerned the need for the wine industry to begin celebrating wine drinkers, rather than finding ways to exclude or belittle them. Suggested food pairings need, in his mind, a complete rethink.
“A perfect wine pairing doesn’t exist. We’re doing a lot of damage the way we’re matching wine and categorizing it... A lot of people enjoy being arrogant about wine and consider entry-level wines as being unsophisticated... We need to celebrate the diversity of consumers, not make them feel stupid. You can serve Sauvignon Blanc with steak—why not?”
But it isn’t just that food and wine pairings tell consumers that specific pairings are somehow wrong. It’s also, according to Hanni, just bullshit in general. He said that France has no history of matching food with wine. “We made that up,” he said, adding:
“We need to get over the notion that food and wine grew up together. Food and wine matching is pseudo science full of metaphors and misunderstandings.”
I spent a lot of time working in a fancy wine and cheese store, and it’s true that people often steer away from what they actually want to drink because it’s not the “right wine” to pair with a steak or whatever. But not everyone likes reds, man! This is incredibly refreshing. Hanni isn’t saying that food and wine can’t be enjoyed together. He’s just saying there’s no correct answer, and also that people should’t be dicks.
It’s not the first time he’s raised the point. Here’s a 2012 Q&A in which he calls the idea of traditional food and wine pairings “an imaginary la-la-land that lives in the minds of the practitioners as reality” that’s just a “basis for telling people what they should, or should not, eat and drink.” Here’s a piece on a 2013 event during which Hanni, also a chef, argued for “flavor balancing” as an alternate activity and said: “Wine pairings are a fraud.”
In short, he’s been banging the drum for quite some time, and it’s just the swearing that got our attention (thanks to The Drinks Business’ report on the speech).
There’s one last delight to be found in TDB’s piece. A poster claiming to be Bartholomew Broadbent, another revered wine expert, left this gem in the comments:
I know what my friend Tim Hanni is trying to say and to some extent I agree. However, I think he missed the point of wine and food pairing. Any wine can be paired with any food perfectly enjoyably. However, a great food and wine pairing is one which improves the experience of both the food and the wine, indeed, creating a new gustatory experience which isn’t accomplished with either one on its own. Mature Vintage Port and Stilton cheese is a perfect example. Or, as Julia Child once told me right before we were about to conduct a Madeira tasting together: “Bananas, we must have bananas! The greatest food and wine pairing in the world is Madeira with bananas.”
Add that to the list of things I learned about bananas today.

Paid2tap has been gathering some heat over the past few weeks. With more people joining this platform recently, it has got me wondering: is Paid2tap legit?
Well, there is only one way to know. As usual, I picked up my computer, conducted my regular ‘insider’ research, and prepared this exclusive Paid2tap review.
In this comprehensive review, we’ll look at the concept of Paid2tap. Also, I’ll show you if you can make money on this platform. If you can, I’ll show you exactly how to make money on Paid2tap.com.
After an overview of Paid2tap, you’ll have my usual analysis that ends with my thoughts about this platform. So, sit back and read this Paid2tap.com review to see if the website is worth your time.
What is Paid2tap.com?
Paid2tap, or Paid to Tap, maybe Paid2tap.com, is a newish earning site that makes the same promises as most of its predecessors. You’ve probably grown tired of the easy-to-make but impossible-to-keep promises that they make to defraud unsuspecting users.
Paid2tap promises to “literally” pay you to tap. That seems like a clever naming attempt from the platform, but we’ll see how the entire business model is.
I want to point out early in this Paid2tap review that it “literally” claims that the average pay for a member of the platform is $8,150. If they aren’t referring to Zimbabwean dollars, I’ll say this claim is extreme.
Let’s pretend we didn’t see that and carry on with our Paid2tap review.
According to the official website, you can make $500 today at home, work, or school. Paid2tap will pay you to invite your friends, test free apps and games, taking surveys, and more.
Just this early, this platform is already showing a disturbing similarity to a particular income program I reviewed recently. I won’t spill the beans yet until I have some evidence.
Paid2tap also has a testimonials page showing some of the Trustpilot reviews they almost certainly paid for. You can see all the characteristics of paid Trustpilot reviews there, with many people quitting their job to focus on this platform.
There is also a 21 seconds YouTube video recommending Paid2tap below the Trustpilot reviews. This video is most probably one of the things you must make before getting your audio payment. Otherwise, the reviewer is most likely a paid Fiverr freelancer or the founder’s girlfriend.
I know I sound somewhat negative, but I’m trying my best to stick to the truth.
While Paid2tap claims to be based out of Netherlands, incorporated as a property with over a million shares since launch, most of these claims, if not all, are false.
There is no registered company in the Netherlands that goes by that name and not a company with one million shares.
Lying about your corporate status is an unforgivable sin, but as usual, we’ll pretend like we didn’t see it.
Before drawing this section to a close, check the below screenshots.
Did you notice any similarities between the two?
The one above is from Social Rebel, a Surveyj spinoff for which I published a review yesterday. If you connect the dots, you’ll notice that Paid2tap and SocialRebel are both products of…
Let’s save that for later.
How does Paid2tap work? | How to earn on Paid2tap
Before going on a rant about why Paid2tap shouldn’t exist, let’s look at the platform’s compensation plan.
If you’re planning to join this platform, you must pay attention here, as these are the activities that should fetch you about $8,000 per month, more if you’re hardworking.
Here is a list of tasks you are required to complete to earn on Paid2tap.
Creating an account
You know how this part goes. After signing up for an account, you automatically get an “audio” $25 on your balance. However, we’re still yet to see anyone withdraw this registration bonus to a bank account.
Paid2tap pays its members $25 to test apps, at least. While this doesn’t sound bad, I don’t understand how they get developers that pay $25 to test a single app.
That price is enough to buy millions of app installs on Fiverr, lol.
You expected this, right?
Paid2tap will pay you $50 or more to answer a survey on their website. From my experience as an online earning expert, any platform that pays over $5 for any survey is either giving away money or scamming people of their money.
You know what?
This review feels precisely like the one I wrote for SocialRebel yesterday. The compensation plan is the same, except that they changed the numbers.
While SocialRebel pays $50 for every registration from your affiliate link, Paid2tap pays $2 per link click and $10 per signup.
How to Withdraw Your Earnings on Paid2tap
You can withdraw your earnings on Paid2tap by clicking the Cash Out button on the side menu and adding a payment method.
I wrote this same thing yesterday, only that I was writing it for SocialRebel, not for a Paid2tap review.
Guess what? Paid2tap also has that annoying “Road to 1st Cash Out.” If you want to know what it means, read about it in my SocialRebel review.
How to register for Paid2tap
Signing up for this platform is easy. You only need an email address to sign up. You can always add your payment information later.
Open the website in your favourite browser, and it will load up a registration form right on the homepage. Fill in your details correctly, and you’re in. you don’t even need to verify your email address.
And did I also mention that you get $25 for signing up?
Is Paid2tap another SocialRebel?
You’d have already noticed that SocialRebel is a recurring name on this review. If you’ve never heard of Social Rebel, I’ll introduce it here, and I’ll show you why it appears so frequently.
Social Rebel is like a clone of Paid2tap or vice versa. Honestly, I don’t know which of these platforms cloned each other, but I know they’re both carbon copies that are not worth your time.
What’s more disturbing is the fact that both of these platforms look and feel strikingly similar to one I reviewed much earlier, Surveyj, not to mention that they’re all based in the Netherlands. These findings led me to a conclusion.
It’s either Paid2tap, Surveyj, and SocialRebel are both operated by the same group of people trying to defraud users of their money.
But, it can also be that someone out there is selling a script for an online earning site. This is the most likely conclusion, as the minor differences show that they’re all from the same source.
If the platform were owned by the same person or group of people, they would take measures to ensure that none of the websites can be linked to the other or themselves.
In short, investing your time in Paid2tap is akin to wasting it. If Surveyj already taught you a lesson, there’s no use relearning it.
Is Paid2tap a scam? | Paid2tap Review
Yes, Paid2tap is most likely to be a scam. The Trustpilot reviews you see on their website are fake, and the YouTube video is most likely incentivized. No one earns $8,000 from wasting time on the website, and you should check out other opportunities instead.
If you are “smart” enough to quit your job for the platform, I’ll suggest that you start looking for another job as soon as possible.
There are so many false claims on their website that I don’t even know where to start. However, let me keep it organized and start by debunking their “trusted” lies.
Paid2tap is full of lies. They claim they’re trusted in over 140 countries and by a series of high profile websites and news outlets.
Let’s start with the high profile websites first. Here is the list of websites that trust Paid2tap.
Save the Student, BuzzFeed, CNN Student News, Forbes, The New York Times, and the Associated Press. That’s somewhat similar to the websites that trust SocialRebel too.
Just that SocialRebel takes it to another whole level. However, this is a Paid2tap.com review, so I’ll only debunk that of Paid2tap.
No articles mention Paid2tap in any of those news sources. Don’t take my word for it; check my screenshots below (and check it yourself if you have the time).
Here is the result of searching for Paid2tap on Forbes.
No results. It seems like Forbes haven’t heard anything related to that in their lifetime.
What about Save the Student; at least, they are more into those kinds of stuff.
Save the Student couldn’t find any content matches?
Okay, let’s try BuzzFeed.
Well, it seems like they found someth… Oh, it has nothing to do with Paid2tap, and Paid2tap wasn’t even mentioned in the article.
And now, to the 140 countries facade, Paid2tap isn’t even multilingual. I don’t think any world language unites 140 countries; so, that’s most likely a lie.
Also, almost all of the Trustpilot reviews are from Nigeria, with a few from India. I can assure you that the founder of this website is somewhere in Nigeria, reading this review over a cup of coffee.
Also, I learned that one of the tasks you need to do before your first payment is giving them a five-star review on Trustpilot. No wonder they have so many “wonderful” reviews.
If these don’t convince you that this platform lies shamelessly, I don’t know what will.
Paid2tap has been around for two months. While that isn’t exactly old, it is almost a whole month older than SocialRebel, the platform I accused them of copying.
Turn out that Paid2tap wasn’t the one copying SocialRebel; instead, they were the one being copied.
Let me point something out here. When I was conducting research yesterday (for SocialRebel), I plugged the supposed name of their CEO into Google, and it brought up the obituary of a guy that has died since 1995.
Now, searching for Williard Clarke on Google brings up the obituary of a guy that has died since 2010.
If you don’t have a CEO, please don’t list any. I hate seeing obituaries.
Trying the exact search on LinkedIn brought up the profile of a guy who had experience as a Janitor with Alpine services. He couldn’t have become the CEO of a company by now, could he?
Conclusion | Is Paid2tap legit or a scam?
I don’t particularly like dashing people’s hopes, but I equally hate dishonesty. Telling you anything else apart from the fact that Paid2tap is a scam would be dishonest.
If you were planning to join this platform, it’s not worth your time. There are many other earning opportunities on the internet, but none of them will pay you $25 just for signing up.

Photo : APUnited Nations: India on Monday called for direct contacts and negotiations between Russia and Ukraine to cease the hostilities between the two countries and said New Delhi has been and will continue to remain in touch with both Moscow and Kyiv. India’s Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN Ambassador R Ravindra said India continues to underline the need to respect the UN Charter, international law and the sovereignty and territorial integrity of States. He was speaking at the UN Security Council briefing by Foreign Minister of Poland Zbigniew Rau, Chairperson-in-Office of Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE). “India has been consistent in calling for an immediate end to all hostilities in Ukraine. Our Prime Minister has repeatedly called for an urgent ceasefire and that there is no other path left but of dialogue and diplomacy,” he said. He further said that India has been in touch with both the Russian Federation and Ukraine and will continue to remain engaged. “We continue to underline the need to respect the UN Charter, international law and the sovereignty and territorial integrity of states,” he said. Expressing concern over the mounting human toll and the humanitarian situation in Ukraine, he said India undertook intensive and immediate steps to evacuate its nationals from conflict zones in Ukraine. “Till date, about 22,500 Indians have returned home safely. We are grateful to all our partners for their support in our evacuation efforts,” he said. Ravindra thanked the Polish foreign minister for the generosity and help extended to Indian citizens, in their safe return from conflict zones in Ukraine. He also lauded the role played by Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) and said, “OSCE has been playing an important role in facilitating the implementation of the package of measures across both sides of the contact line in eastern Ukraine.” “However, recent developments in Ukraine and consequent deterioration of security situation have halted the functioning of the Special Monitoring Mission,” he said. He said that India supports support OSCE Minsk Group’s continued efforts for a peaceful resolution of the conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan. Russian President Vladimir Putin on February 24 launched what he called a “special military operation” in Ukraine and warned other countries that any attempt to interfere with the Russian action would lead to unprecedented consequences. Since then, Prime Minister Modi has held several telephonic conversation with Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and called for an immediate end of violence.

For a long time ‘doing it right’ and ‘being good’ in what I thought were the eyes of others ran the unconscious ways I would think, feel and act. Situations in which I thought I was being ignored my mind used as proof that I was doing it wrong and that ultimately there was something wrong with me. I feared this meant disapproval and abandonment by others.
When I started doing The Work in 2016 I experienced room for what I was thinking and believing without condemnation. Emotions could surface in a safe, still space. I found a way to access wisdom from within. I have experienced The Work on mother, father, siblings, religion/God, addiction, eating disorder, romantic relationships, work, money, life and death.
Doing The Work is a home coming to me each time. It has brought healing from heartbreak, freedom from self-imposed rules, trust in the natural unfolding of life, self-acceptance, a sense of taking responsibility for myself, a mentality of cooperation, an ability ‘to rest’ in not knowing, a stronger connection to what I am feeling and clearer communication as a result.
Thoughts about death, being doomed, and self-hatred have no hold on me anymore; rather, it has turned around to: I am here, so there must be something right with me. Doing The Work continues to be humbling journey of meeting myself and others with understanding.
If you are interested in peace and clarity, it would be a privilege to do The Work with you.

Pedro Proença kicks off the Thinking Football Summit
The second edition of the Thinking Football Summit has started! Pedro Proença, President of Liga Portugal, and Rui Moreira, mayor of the Porto Council, kicked off the event, which is taking place at the Super Bock Arena in Porto from today until next Saturday, after an opening speech by moderator Pedro Pinto.
Pedro Proença recalled the first edition of the Thinking Football Summit and promised an even better second edition. "A year ago, on this very stage, I said that there would be a before and after to the Thinking Football Summit. Time has proven me right. Last year's success has motivated us even more for this year's edition," said the Liga Portugal President.
After thanking the city of Porto and all the partners involved in the event, Pedro Proença highlighted the support of all the professional clubs. "During the three days of the event, we will have several presidents as speakers, sharing their experiences and the projects they have implemented," said the Liga Portugal president to an audience that included the heads of clubs, district and regional football federations, trade associations and former players, including former FC Porto players Beto Pimparel, Jorge Andrade and João Pinto.
Without forgetting the fans and an event designed with them in mind, Pedro Proença listed some of the issues that will be discussed, namely the contextual costs of professional football.
"According to the last yearbook, professional football generated more than 3,500 jobs, contributed more than 617 million euros to the GDP and paid more than 214 million euros in taxes. For the third year running, we have three teams in the group stage of the Champions League, competing on equal terms with the biggest clubs in the world, in a context of complete inequality compared to their opponents, especially in terms of taxation. Let's all make an effort to remove the obstacles that increase inequality in relation to our opponents," warned Pedro Proença.
Rui Moreira, for his part, highlighted the organisation of the Thinking Football Summit in Porto for the second year running. "This second edition will serve to consolidate the project. Congratulations to Liga Portugal and its president, Pedro Proença. Liga Portugal has an umbilical cord with the city of Porto. For a city that lives and breathes football, it's a privilege to host this event," said the mayor.
The Thinking Football Summit runs until next Saturday and will feature more than 200 speakers. Check out the full schedule on the event's website.

In the Are Ricola Cough Drops Keto Friendly article, you will find various additional information regarding Are Ricola Cough Drops Keto Friendly, including, are halls cough drops keto friendly, and ricola sugar free cough drops.
So, let’s look at the full review of Are Ricola Cough Drops Keto Friendly, below.
What is the keto diet
Before knowing about Are Ricola Cough Drops Keto Friendly, here’s an explanation of ‘What is the keto diet’. The ketogenic diet, also known as the ultra-low-carb diet, is also called Keto. The ketogenic diet is high in fat, moderate protein, and very few carbohydrates. A typical ratio of 70-80 percent fat, 10-20% protein, and 5-10% carbohydrates is the norm.
How does the keto diet work
How can you eat so much fat while still losing weight? Water loss due to a dramatic, acute reduction in carbs is the main reason for initial weight loss. When you reduce nearly every category of food (in this instance carbs), you will also have fewer options and likely eat less.
In addition to eating less, your body will go into ketosis if you consume most of your calories from fat. Your body will then get its energy from ketones, not glucose. It’s important to understand how your body uses energy from foods to understand ketosis.
Your body prefers to use glucose (sugars in the carbs you consume) as an energy source. Your body will go into ketosis if you drastically reduce your carb intake and replace it with fats. The liver produces ketone bodies from stored fats, which are used to produce energy in the absence of glucose.
No matter what your diet is, losing weight will only happen if you eat fewer calories than you burn.

Trends are never solo venturers. They travel with others. This is why ‘should we do/have done something else?’ is so important to discuss
From the Blog on ratings
We often think of rating systems to be about quality of a product, service, experience. However, they are mostly expectations and interaction ratings.
Ratings can be useful if you are willing to engage in a discussion; willing to ask why and genuinely listen. You don’t have to agree.

Owners of Hyundai and Nissan cars are the most common victims of car theft in Costa Rica.
From January 2011 to March 2012, 5,585 vehicle robberies were committed in the country. Of the thefts, 16 percent (897) involved a Hyundai brand, and 13 percent (747) involved Nissan. The third and forth most victimized brands were Suzuki (545) and Toyota (514). The data, first reported by the daily La Nación, comes from the Office of Plans and Operations, an arm of the Judicial Investigation Police.
When it comes to motorcycles, Yahama choppers (463) were most likely to be stolen.
Most of the stolen cars are broken down and sold for parts.
Overall carjackings are down in Costa Rica. Thefts fell from 1,157 cases to 1,002 cases during the first quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. However, carjackings rose in two provinces, Heredia (124 to 162 cases) and Cartago (63 to 81 cases).
Motorcycle thefts fell from 411 in the first quarter of 2011 to 313 in 2012.

Once again we have moved. This time from Aosta to our new home in the region of Emilia Romagna, in a tiny town called Carbona. Here we rented a small appartment which was an old home with a large garden. The garden was looking out over the hills and a river. Apart from the train tracks on the other side of the house, the place was sleepy and quiet. Luckily the trains only ran a few times per day and that equals no problem.
Because we had moved so often the last few weeks we took a few days to relax. We hung out, worked a bit, and dipped into the river called “Reno” a few times. The day before we departed we wanted to atleast do this region some justice by visiting the city of Bologna and try to eat as much of the delicous food as we could.
Bologna food tour
So without any breakfast we took the train to Bologna. The train system here is surprisingly modern and easy. We just downloaded the Trenitalia app, bought the tickets using the payment method of and our choice and we were ready to go. Whenever you are checked by the conductor, just show the app with a QR code, easypeasy.
We did some preparation in advance of which kinds of food we wanted to try. When we arrived in Bologna we headed straight for the city center. Here are the things we tried during the day:
- Espresso (ofcourse)
- Tigelle (with ham and cheese)
- Croissant with pistache cream filling
- Pizza, a margharita with buffalo mozzarella and fresh basil and a pumpkin and sausages one. (the pumpkin one was awesome)
- Gelato, we had pistache, mango, hazelnut and a ricotta and fig icecream. So good..
- Ragu Bolognesa, slightly different to the “Bolognese” sauce we are used to. More meat and less vegetables.
- Salumi platter with parma ham, mortadella, ricotta and parmigiano reggiano.
- Crescentine and more Tigelle, these came with the salumi
- Beef and potato dish, not really a italian staple but Ellen was not a fan of the pastas.
- A tortellini type pasta filled with pistache, ricotta and parmigiano.
As you can imagine, it was great and we absolutely rolled into the train back home
In between the food carnage we still did some sightseeing ofcourse. There was plenty of things to see and do in this surprising city. We had to book some things in advance due to covid restrictions and we had to show our vaccination pass. In one occassion they even took our temperatures.
We made one mistake while booking one of the sights. Bologna is known for its towers scattered accross its city center and we wanted to clime the biggest one. We had booked this ascend at 16:30h. Knowing that there was no elevator and the only way up is by climbing 400 stairs. Because our legs were already mush at that time, we decided to skip the ascend. We enjoyed a slow stroll through one of the massive Cathedrals instead.
All in all it was a great day in Bologna, we enjoyed the city and its food and we were glad we took the day to check it out.

This past month, I immersed myself in trying to understand issues of race in contemporary culture, including inner city poverty, unconscious prejudice, and mass incarceration. What did I learn? That it will take superhuman amounts of humility, honesty, and selflessness to remedy the struggles so many face today. To be candid, I’m not certain if our finger-pointing society has the virtue required to do it.
Which is why I needed to dream with Jesus’ friend John—“After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb” (Revelation 7:9). Look at the uncountable crowd in John’s dream! From every nation. From every tribe. From every people. From every language. The saved are Africans, Americans, Asians, Canadians. They speak English, Arabic, and all the accents you can choose for Alexa. Your people, my people, all people are there. If unrepentant racists were allowed into heaven, they would hate the VIP section. Because in heaven there is fellowship without discrimination, praise without hesitation, and worship without segregation. If you love diversity, you will adore eternity.
That glimpse gives me the motivation I need to keep fighting so that God’s will might be done here on earth as it is there in heaven. I pray that it fuels up your heart to fight for truth and justice too.

01/6From helping stray animals to meeting ailing fan, 5 times when Shraddha Kapoor won the internet with her kindness
Bollywood star Shraddha Kapoor is one of the popular names in the industry who has had several hit films under her credit ever since she debuted with ‘Teen Patti’. While her impeccable on-screen characters clubbed with versatile style file keep hitting headlines, it’s also her kind gestures towards animals, nature and even fans that make her a person with a golden heart. Take a look:
Shraddha Kapoor is among the first few stars who extended monetary help to paparazzi and photographers in need during the tough times of the COVID-19 pandemic. Apart from this, the actress who is also an avid animal lover, made a donation to an NGO to help feed stray animals during the lockdown.
In the latest, Shraddha melted everyone’s hearts when she turned into a wedding officiator for her best friend and makeup artist, Shraddha Naik’s D-Day. While a video clip from the white wedding has now gone viral, later the MUA shared, “Dear Shraddie, From getting introduced in a professional set up 12 years back to becoming friends then best friends to you being the officiator of my wedding ️ We’ve come a long way! Thank You for officiating our wedding It meant the world to me & Richie!.”
04/6Tribute to Sushant Singh Rajput
Shraddha left netizens teary eyed with her moving tribute for her ‘Chhichhore’ co-star Sushant Singh Rajput who passed away in 2020. Sharing a glimpse of a book gifted by SSR, she opened up about her conversations with him and said in a long eulogy, “Been trying to accept what has happened and coming to terms with it is very difficult. There is a huge void... Sushant...! Dearest Sush...! Full of humility, intelligence, curiosity about life, seeing beauty in everything, everywhere! He danced to his own tune.”
05/6Aarey forest crisis
Shraddha was among the first few celebs to join thousands of civilians protesting against BMC’s controversial decision to slash trees of Mumbai’s Aarey forest to make space for the ongoing construction of the metro’s car shed. Joining hands with Mumbaikars, she was spotted standing firm on the road holding a placard and chanting slogans to give her voice to the cause.
06/6Meeting an ailing fan
The actress trended for days after she made her way to meet an ailing fan at a hospital amid her busy shooting schedule. Fulfilling the fan’s wish, she donned a burkha to avoid the crowd and later revealed, “I’m so so happy that I was able to go & meet Summaya today. She’s such a precious little angel. Praying for her recovery. @ketto please let me know how I can help with her treatment & all the best with all the work you guys are doing.”

Derek wrote in, and had a great question:
Derek writes: Being a complete newbie to real estate investing I started with listening to podcast, reading blogs and forums and looking to network with others. My question is, would wholesaling being a good avenue to build capital so that I can venture into flipping and/or buy and hold opportunities?
Speaker 1: Welcome to the real investing show with Tim heritage each day, we’ll provide real investing for everyday investors. Tim is a nationally recognized real estate investing expert podcast, host and public speaker. He built his businesses from the ground up and is here to help you do the same. Here is your host Tim heritage.
Speaker 2: Welcome back to real investing. I’m Tim heritage today, Derek Wrights being a complete newbie, the real estate investing. I started with listening to podcasts, reading blogs and forums, and looking to [00:00:30] network with others. My question is, would wholesaling be a good avenue, the build capital so that I venture into flipping and or buy and hold opportunity? Well, Derek, that’s a great question. And it’s probably the first question that most people listening to this podcast have because in general, most Americans don’t have excess capital that they can just sink 20, 30, $40,000 into a house and wait for it. So wholes sellings, that thing that many people turn to is a way to build up capital. [00:01:00] And as a way to, uh, scale their real estate investing business, I’m a big fan of wholesaling. I still wholesale. Uh, as we sit here this week, we will probably close on one wholesale this week and sell two or three more, uh, at least two more, uh, to investors that will close in the next couple weeks.
Speaker 2: So it’s still a very active part of my business, but I will tell you Derek, the part of my business, that it is, is to dispose of the inventory that I am able to generate through my advertising in a profitable manner. [00:01:30] In essence, I don’t have an interest in a mobile home in Quinland Texas on an acre, but when the people call me and they say, they’ll take $30,000 for it. And I look and see it’s worth a hundred, I’m not just going to say no that doesn’t fit my business strategy, call someone else. So we go out and give ’em the 30,000 they’re asking and then turn around and sell it to someone for 60 or $70,000, and then take that money and then put it into play in our desired exit strategy, which would be [00:02:00] at the moment, a lot of Airbnb or corporate housing type properties.
Speaker 2: So yes, wholesaling is a good avenue to build capital. That’s your question. I will tell you though, there’s a lot of people that get stuck in wholesaling. They never really make it out of wholesaling. So if you are going to be in wholesaling, never lose sight of the reason you’re doing it because the money can be addictive and it’s really easy to get 30 or $40,000 and then level up your living expenses, et cetera. Now, I’m not saying that you shouldn’t [00:02:30] celebrate your wins and enjoy those, you know, spoils of war, but Derek, you have to be really careful in wholesaling because the power of, I think ed Myla just wrote a book, the power of one more. If I were had just kept one more property, just one more property per year for the 10 year 20 years, I’ve been doing this, it’s a difference in net worth of 10 million.
Speaker 2: So just hear that, right? It start with wholesale, build up your cash, live as low on [00:03:00] the hog or low on the totem pole as conservative of a lifestyle. As you can build that cash up and get into the buy and hold game. And I, I’m a fan of having a day job and then treating real estate as an investment. It’s makes it a lot easier, a lot more enjoyable, but yes, if you’re wanting to go full time and you’ve got the bug, I highly encourage to, you know, grab a hold of that feeling and, and be an entrepreneur, but just know you’ve gotta watch out and stay focused on what your [00:03:30] dream is. And like my website says, the business is the vehicle, not the dream, right? And so don’t get caught in the transactional lifestyle, really focus on the wealth mindset and wholesaling can be a great way to get you there. So Derek, thank you for the question. I hope this helps. Remember if you’re listening to this episode, hop on over to, I have lunch, money.com. Submit a question. We’ll see you tomorrow.

THE KURGANOVA SHOCK TROOPS (KST)
Led by the ultra-powerful Kurganov family, the Kurganova Shock Troops are a highly organized and disciplined army with underlying Eastern European themes. They also benefit from the support of strong cyber-enhanced paganic magic. This, among other things, allows them to 'waken' the 'were' gene that can transform some members of the Kurganova army into giant were-wolves or were-bears.

Fire Prevention on Construction Sites
Few work environments pose a bigger fire hazard than a construction site. U.S. Fire Administration figures indicate that there are more than 4,800 construction site fires each year, resulting in approximately $35 million in property damage. Construction fires are difficult to contain for a wide variety of reasons, such as the high volume of flammable materials on the site and the absence of adequate fire protection systems.
Common Construction Site Fire Hazards
There are numerous potential construction site hazards that can cause a fire:
- Combustible materials: Most construction sites are filled with materials that can easily catch fire, such as liquid fuel, lumber and protective coverings for equipment. These types of fires can spread quickly and cause extensive damage in a short period of time.
- Electrical wiring: Faulty, exposed or improperly installed electrical wiring is a major fire hazard at many construction sites.
- Unattended heating units: The use of space heaters is common at many construction sites in colder climates. However, they pose a significant fire hazard if they’re left unattended or placed too close to flammable materials.
- Careless smoking: While there may be rules in place that prohibit smoking on a construction site, they don’t always prevent construction workers from smoking on the job. It only takes one carelessly discarded cigarette to ignite a deadly blaze.
- Arson: Many construction fires are intentionally set by vandals or disgruntled workers.
Construction Site Fire Safety Tips
While it may be impossible to eliminate all building site hazards that can cause a fire, there are a variety of preventive steps site managers and employees can take to minimize the risk. These include:
- Substituting flammable building materials with flame retardant products wherever possible
- Keeping the site free of discarded trash
- Strictly enforcing no smoking policies
- Restricting the use of space heaters in high-risk areas
- Properly training workers on safe work practices
- Storing combustible materials away from buildings that are under construction
- Ensuring all electrical work complies with all applicable fire and building codes
- Keeping all equipment in proper working order
- Placing fire extinguishers at individual work areas and ensuring workers know how to operate them
Taking Appropriate Security Measures
Tight security can help to prevent acts of vandalism and arson. Consider installing perimeter fencing around the site and all equipment and material storage areas. If hiring trained security personnel is not a practical alternative for your construction operation, a high-quality security system including strategically placed video cameras, motion detectors and access control devices can provide reliable around-the-clock site surveillance.
If you manage residential or commercial construction sites in the Phoenix, AZ area, Titan Alarm, Inc. can design and install an effective security system that will fully protect the property and give you peace of mind. We offer the most innovative site security products on the market, including IP cameras, access control systems and motion detection devices. We can also install a fire alarm system with 24/7 monitoring that ensures early detection if a fire breaks out. Contact us to schedule a no-obligation consultation today.

It was a rainy night for the Midwest Supermodified Series and after 2 rain delays Lorain Raceway Park, track owner Randy Maggio was determined to ensure his fans, racers and family would get their race & honor The Nancy Henes 36 lap memorial. Fans and racing family’s throughout, come faithfully to pay tribute and also witness JJ Henes, the young hot shoe and 3rd generation driver get his first Supermodified feature win in honor of his grandmother Nancy Henes.

Prince George’s Community College chooses Hitachi 4K and HDTV cameras for two educational projects
Founded in 1958, Prince George’s Community College (PGCC) in Largo, Maryland has selected cameras from Hitachi Kokusai Electric America, Ltd. (Hitachi Kokusai) for two separate projects last year: a new production studio dedicated to student instruction, and a 4K studio upgrade for its PGCC-TV educational access channel.
PGCC-TV is available to more than 750,000 cable subscribers in Maryland. Until last year, the PGCC-TV studio doubled as a classroom for students in the College’s mass communication concentration, which prepares students for career positions in television, video, film, radio, and other mass media industries. In 2019, the College invested in building a second studio designed exclusively for teaching and learning in its new Center for Performing Arts (CPA). This in turn gave PGCC-TV the opportunity to expand its community engagement in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.
“With the addition of the smaller studio, our plan is that the PGCC-TV studio will not only be for students, but also opened for the community to be able to learn how to use the equipment and to rent it for their community video projects,” said PGCC-TV Manager Dr. Angela Mathis. “While our external roll-out has been delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic, our goal is to continue expanding our partnerships with non-profits, government agencies – including our local county government, which provided the funding for our upgrade – and others in the community.”
Having used Z-HD5000 cameras from Hitachi Kokusai since their last studio renovation in 2012, PGCC-TV again looked to the company to help achieve its latest goal of offering 4K acquisition and recording. “Prince George’s Community College wanted to stand out in the marketplace by becoming the only institution of higher education to have a 4K studio in our county, if not the entire state,” explained Dr. Mathis. “We worked closely with integrator Digital Video Group (DVG) to upgrade our equipment and infrastructure. I believe we are the only two- or four-year program in Maryland that can shoot and record in 4K, and people are looking at us as a place they can go for high-quality production.”
The College purchased four SK-UHD4000 Ultra HD cameras for the PGCC-TV studio. While the educational channel is currently broadcast in HD, content can be recorded in 4K to an AJA Ki Pro Ultra unit and mastered to HD in post-production. “We can edit in 4K even though we are mastering HD, and I am very impressed with what it looks like,” said Dr. Mathis. “The SK-UHD4000s have met or exceeded our picture quality expectations.”
Hitachi cameras were also the preferred choice for the new CPA educational studio, with the College purchasing three Z-HD5500 HDTV models for the facility. “We had a lot of success with students using the earlier Z-HD5000s at PGCC TV, so we wanted to continue using Hitachi cameras in our new facility,” said Dr. Sherelle Williams, mass communications professor at PGCC. “The Hitachi cameras have great image quality and I like the fact that they’re an industry standard, so the students are gaining experience that will benefit them once they go out into employment.”
Dr. Williams also highlights the merits of the operational consistency between the Z-HD5500s used for instruction and the SK-UHD4000s used by PGCC-TV. “We value having some continuity between what we use for productions on the student side and what PGCC-TV produces on the professional side,” she explained. “Students can train on Hitachi cameras in one studio and be immediately comfortable with them in the other.”
Production Coordinator Marshall Johnson has been with the College for 10 years, and highlighted the role Hitachi cameras have played in the evolution of the PGCC-TV studio. “They have given us a level of professionalism we hadn’t had before,” he said. “We are always trying to grow with the times, and value technology that allows us to improve. Hitachi Kokusai has been very good in their ability to grow with us.”
“From both an operational and instructional standpoint, I am very proud to use the Hitachi 4K cameras,” concluded Dr. Mathis. “I think they were an excellent choice. They give a good quality image, they’re very easy to train on, and knowing that I am training students on products they will encounter in real-world situations gives the students and myself a lot of confidence.”

When it comes to enjoying a perfectly cooked steak, having the right tools at your disposal can make all the difference. A high-quality steakmesser set is an essential kitchen tool that combines functionality, style, and precision to enhance your dining experience. In this article, we delve into the world of steak knife sets, exploring their importance, key features, and why investing in a set can take your steak indulgence to new heights.
1. Unleashing the Power of Serrated Blades
Steak knife sets are equipped with sharp and serrated blades, designed specifically for effortlessly cutting through tender, juicy cuts of meat. The serrations on the blade enable a clean, smooth cut without tearing or damaging the meat fibers. This ensures that every bite of your steak is perfectly sliced and retains its flavors and juices, allowing you to savor the full experience of a succulent steak.
2. Craftsmanship and Durability
A premium steak knife set is a testament to exceptional craftsmanship and durability. These knives are typically constructed from high-quality stainless steel, ensuring longevity and resistance to corrosion. The blades are precisely forged, honed, and heat-treated to achieve optimal sharpness and strength. With proper care, a well-crafted steak knife set can become a lifelong kitchen companion, ready to elevate your dining experiences for years to come.
3. Ergonomic Design for Effortless Cutting
Comfort and ease of use are paramount when it comes to steak knives. A good steak knife set is designed with ergonomics in mind, providing a comfortable grip and balanced weight distribution. The handle materials can vary, ranging from classic wood to modern synthetic materials, each offering its own aesthetic appeal and tactile experience. The ergonomic design ensures that you can effortlessly glide through your steak with precision and control.
4. Versatility Beyond Steak
While steak knife sets are specifically designed for slicing through steak with finesse, their utility extends beyond a single type of meat. These versatile knives can be used to cut through a variety of foods, such as roasted poultry, pork chops, or even crusty bread. Their sharp serrated blades make them suitable for any dish that requires a clean and effortless cut, making them a valuable addition to any kitchen.
5. Style and Presentation
Steak knife sets not only excel in functionality but also elevate the aesthetic appeal of your dining table. With their sleek designs and elegant finishes, these sets add a touch of sophistication to your culinary presentation. Whether you’re hosting a formal dinner party or simply enjoying a steak with family, a well-crafted steak knife set enhances the visual experience and adds an element of refinement to the occasion.
6. Care and Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and performance of your steak knife set, proper care and maintenance are essential. Handwashing and immediate drying are recommended to prevent any staining or corrosion. Regular honing and occasional sharpening will maintain the sharpness of the blades. Storing the knives in a knife block or sheath will protect them from damage and ensure they are readily accessible for your next steak feast.
Investing in a high-quality steak knife set is a decision that will significantly enhance your steak dining experience. From their precise serrated blades and durable craftsmanship to their ergonomic design and stylish appearance, these sets are tailored to meet the needs of meat lovers and culinary enthusiasts alike. Elevate your dining table, savor the flavors, and enjoy the perfect slice of steak with the perfect companion—a steak knife set that exemplifies excellence in both form and function.

If you’re a property manager, you know that keeping your properties clean and well-maintained is crucial for tenant satisfaction. However, with so many other responsibilities on your plate, finding the time to handle all of the cleaning yourself can be overwhelming.
That’s where maid services come in – they can save you time and energy while ensuring that your properties are always looking their best. By outsourcing your cleaning needs to a professional maid service, you’ll have more time to focus on other aspects of managing your properties.
Whether it’s handling tenant complaints or coordinating repairs and maintenance, having one less thing to worry about will make your job easier. Plus, when you hire a maid service, you’ll benefit from their expertise and specialized equipment that can tackle even the toughest cleaning challenges.
From deep-cleaning carpets to tackling mold and mildew in the bathroom, these professionals have seen it all and know how to get the job done right.
– Maid services save time and energy for property managers, allowing them to focus on other aspects of management.
– Trained professionals with specialized equipment and cleaning products ensure spotless cleaning, improving air quality and preventing damage and wear-and-tear.
– Maid services can increase tenant satisfaction and retention rates, attract high-quality renters, and even be used as a bargaining tool for lease negotiation.
– Customizable cleaning plans with affordable pricing and flexible scheduling options provide peace of mind for property owners, increase revenue potential, and can even increase property value by up to 10%.
Time and Energy Savings
By outsourcing cleaning responsibilities to a maid service, you can enjoy an efficiency boost and productivity gains. Instead of spending valuable time and energy on cleaning tasks, you can allocate those resources towards more pressing matters, such as managing tenants or improving your property’s overall appearance.
This increased efficiency not only saves you time but also allows you to focus on other areas of your business that need attention. In addition to saving time and boosting productivity, a professional maid service offers expertise and equipment that may not be available in-house.
Maid services employ trained professionals who use specialized cleaning products and tools that are designed to deliver superior results. With access to the latest technology and techniques, these experts can clean efficiently and effectively without damaging your property. By using a maid service for all your cleaning needs, you can rest assured that the job will be done right every time.
Professional Expertise and Equipment
When it comes to professional expertise and equipment, hiring a maid service for your properties can provide thorough cleaning of even the toughest messes.
With specialized tools and techniques, these professionals can tackle dirt and grime that may have been overlooked by previous cleaners.
This level of deep cleaning not only improves the appearance of your properties but also contributes to improved property maintenance and longevity.
Thorough Cleaning of Even the Toughest Messes
You’ll appreciate the thorough cleaning provided by maid services, even for the toughest messes that may have been overlooked or neglected. With their deep cleaning techniques and eco-friendly solutions, they can tackle any challenge that comes their way.
Maid services are equipped with powerful tools and equipment that help them get rid of dirt, dust, stains, and grime from every nook and cranny of your property. Moreover, professional maids use a meticulous approach to ensure that every corner is spotless.
They pay attention to details such as baseboards, ceiling fans, blinds, and windowsills – areas where dirt and grime tend to accumulate over time. By doing so, they prevent mold growth and improve air quality in your property. You won’t have to worry about unpleasant odors or hidden messes when you hire maid services.
All in all, a thorough cleaning ensures that your property looks its best while also improving its longevity by preventing wear and tear caused by neglect or improper upkeep.
Improved Property Maintenance and Longevity
Maintaining a clean and tidy home with the help of professional cleaning can save you money in the long run. With regular maid service, your property will be kept in top condition, reducing the need for costly repairs or replacements due to neglect or damage caused by dirt and grime buildup.
Not only does this improve maintenance efficiency, but it also enhances cost effectiveness. By investing in maid service for your property, you ensure that every nook and cranny is taken care of.
A clean environment promotes better health and well-being for everyone residing within the vicinity. Furthermore, improved property maintenance guarantees longevity, raising its overall appeal to potential tenants.
With these benefits at hand, enhanced property appearance and tenant satisfaction are just around the corner.
Enhanced Property Appearance and Tenant Satisfaction
When it comes to property management, attracting and retaining high-quality tenants is vital for success.
By utilizing professional maid services, you can enhance the appearance of your properties and increase tenant satisfaction, ultimately leading to higher retention rates.
Not only does this result in a better image for your properties, but it also increases their value and revenue potential.
Investing in quality cleaning services can make all the difference in keeping your tenants happy and ensuring the long-term success of your business.
Attracting and Retaining High-Quality Tenants
Attracting and retaining high-quality tenants is easier when a property manager offers maid service as an added benefit. Prospective tenants often consider the amenities offered by the property before signing their lease agreement. By providing regular maid service, you can differentiate your property from others in the area and attract tenants who value cleanliness and convenience. This may also result in higher rental rates or lower vacancy rates, ultimately leading to increased revenue.
In addition, offering maid service can help with tenant screening and lease negotiation. When prospective tenants see that your property offers professional cleaning services, they’ll understand that you’re committed to maintaining a clean and safe living environment for your residents. This can make them feel more secure about choosing your property over others that don’t offer this amenity.
When negotiating lease terms, you can also use maid service as a bargaining tool to encourage tenants to sign longer leases or agree to other favorable conditions for both parties involved. By offering this added benefit, you can improve tenant satisfaction while also boosting your bottom line.
This improved bottom line will be further enhanced through increased property value and revenue potential which we’ll discuss in the subsequent section of this article.
Increased Property Value and Revenue Potential
By providing an added benefit like maid service, property owners can not only increase their revenue potential but also enhance the overall value of their investment. Offering professional cleaning services to tenants can be a major marketing benefit for property managers looking to attract high-quality renters.
With customizable cleaning plans and competitive pricing, maid services can give your properties a competitive advantage in the market. Not only does offering maid service help you market your properties better, it also has direct financial benefits. By keeping your units cleaner and more presentable, you can charge higher rents and retain tenants for longer periods of time.
Additionally, regular cleanings help prevent damage and wear-and-tear on surfaces and appliances, extending their lifespan and saving you money on repairs and replacements down the line. With all these benefits in mind, it’s clear that adding maid service to your list of amenities is a smart investment for any property manager looking to boost their bottom line.
Customizable Cleaning Plans
With customizable cleaning plans, property managers can tailor the maid service to fit their specific needs and budget, giving them peace of mind knowing their properties are well-maintained.
Here are four emotional benefits of customizable cleaning plans that’ll make you feel confident in your decision to hire a maid service:
- Freedom: With flexible scheduling options, you can choose when the maid service comes to clean your property. This means you have more time and freedom to focus on other important tasks related to managing your property.
- Convenience: A customized cleaning plan means tailored services that cater specifically to your needs. You don’t have to worry about any unnecessary or irrelevant cleaning tasks being performed, saving you both time and money.
- Affordability: Customizable cleaning plans offer affordable pricing with various budget options available. This allows you to make an informed decision about which option best suits your financial situation without compromising on quality.
- Expertise: Maid services with customizable cleaning plans typically employ professional cleaners who have the expertise and experience necessary to maintain high cleanliness standards for all types of properties.
With these benefits in mind, it’s easy to see how hiring a maid service with customizable cleaning plans can bring peace of mind for any property manager looking for reliable help in maintaining their properties’ upkeep without sacrificing quality or affordability.
Peace of Mind
Having customizable cleaning plans brings peace of mind to property owners, as studies have shown that a clean and well-maintained property can increase its value by up to 10%. Maid services offer tailored cleaning plans that cater to the specific needs of the property.
By having a professional team take care of the cleaning tasks, property managers can reduce their stress levels and focus on other important aspects of managing their properties. Moreover, with a maid service taking care of the cleaning responsibilities, productivity is improved.

Experts say that toilets and toilet tanks can last up to 50 years if they are maintained properly but that doesn’t mean you won’t run into problems eventually. Over time, a toilet tank can become wobbly or cracked meaning that’s time to change your toilet tank for a new and improved one.
If your toilet tank is riddled with hard water stains and rust, or you just simply can’t get it clean, it’s time to replace the toilet cistern. Hard water stains and rust can compromise the toilet tank causing leaks or worse.
Replacing a toilet tank or toilet cistern is an easy and simple task that shouldn’t take more than an hour at most. When replacing a toilet tank, you’ll also want to go ahead and change the flush lever, flapper, fill valve, gasket, and other inner working pieces of the toilet tank. Experts also say that changing out the inner workings of your toilet and the toilet seat itself can increase the longevity of your toilet
Below, you’ll find a list of materials needed as well as a step-by-step guide on to replace your toilet tank.
- Basin Wrench or Adjustable Wrench
- Pliers or Vice Grips
- Toilet Tank Mounting Bolts
- Toilet Tank
Tip: If you are replacing the toilet tank, be sure to double-check the box and ensure that it comes with all of the parts you’ll need to get the toilet working again. You’ll need the following for your toilet repair:
- Fill Valve
- Rubber Flapper
- Rubber Gasket
- Spud Washer
- Flush Lever
- Water Supply Hose or Water Supply Line
If the toilet tank has all of the inner working pieces, then you won’t need to worry about picking them up individually.
How to Remove a Toilet Tank
- Begin with shutting off the water supply line. The water valve is located behind the toilet and is usually sticking out of the wall behind the toilet basin. Turn the knob or lever until the water is completely shut off.
- Flush the toilet 1-2 times to cycle the water out of the toilet tank.
- Lift the tank lid and place it somewhere safe and out of your way. You’ll need to soak up the remaining water inside the toilet tank with a sponge, preferably a larger one. You need to do this to ensure that you don’t make a huge mess when removing the toilet cistern from the basin.
- Once you’ve finished removing the remaining water from the toilet tank, it’s time to discount the water supply line from the toilet tank. Lay down 1-2 rags or a towel to catch any dripping water. Using a pair of pliers or vice grips, break loose the plastic nut that connects the water supply line to the bottom of the toilet tank. Do the same for the other end of the line.
- Inspect the water supply line. If the line still looks intact and mostly viable from what you can see, you’ll be able to re-use it later. It’s recommended that you soak the water supply line in White Vinegar for up to 30-minutes. Its well help break up any rust stain or hard water buildup you may see on the exterior as well as the interior.
- Using a basin wrench or adjustable wrench, you’ll want to now loosen the mounting bolts that mount the toilet tank to the toilet bowl. Usually there are two bolts, one on the left and one on the right, but some toilets have a singular bolt in the center of the toilet cistern. Depending on where the mounting bolts are located, you may need to lose the metal washer on the bottom of the bolt, otherwise, you’ll just need to reach inside the toilet tank with a wrench and remove the bolts.
- Inspect the mounting bolts. If the bolts have a rust stain or hard water build up, you can soak them in White Vinegar as well. However, if the bolts are stripped or generally look old or the rust isn’t easily scrubbed off, you’ll need to replace them.
- Now, you can remove the toilet tank from the toilet tank from the toilet bowl. When replacing the toilet tank or making fixes to the originally toilet tank, mounting it back onto the toilet is as easy as pie. You’ll need to inspect the rubber spud washer to ensure that it hasn’t become compromised or is crumbling due to age. If you’re good to go, you can begin by placing the toilet tank back on top of the toilet bowl carefully.
- If you’ve chosen to re-use your old bolts, it’s recommended to scrub away can visibly rust or hard water build up with a small wire brush. To re-mount the toilet tank, you’ll need to screw in the bolts and tighten them with the basin wrench or adjustable wrench. Don’t tighten too much, just enough that it’s tight enough that there won’t be a water leak.
- If you chose to re-use your old water supply line, it’s recommended to scrub away can visibly rust or hard water build up with a small wire brush. To re-connect the water supply line, you’ll need to screw the plastic nut back on to the water supply valve and use the vice gripers or pliers to tighten it. Do the same when reconnecting to water supply line to the bottom of the toilet tank.
- Turn the water valve back on and allow for the toilet cistern to refill completely.
- Check and make sure that you do not have any leaks coming from the toilet tank, the mounting bolts, or the water supply line by flushing the toilet 1-2 times.
Most hardware and toilet supply stores will carry individual toilet tanks on hand in their stock. Anything can happen to your toilet tank may it be a crack, rust, or you just want to change it out for a nicer one. Removing your toilet tank and replacing it is a super easy job that doesn’t require a plumber.
Just remember to read the boxes contents to ensure that all of the inner working pieces are included, otherwise you’ll need to buy them separately for your toilet to function properly. You’ll need to have a fill valve, rubber flapper, rubber gaskets, and mounting bolts.
If you’re unsure whether or not to replace your water supply line and mounting bolts, it’s best to go ahead and replace them anyway. Having any kind of water leak can create hazardous problems and eventually become a costly project. Water leaks can affect the longevity of your toilet causing not only a higher water bill, but also the cost of a new toilet.

Enhances ride comfort and handling response by using a hydraulic control system to control the suspension stabilizer bars in response
to road surface and driving conditions during cornering or off-road driving.
The KDSS has hydraulic cylinders positioned on the front and rear stabilizer bars, and controls the operation of the stabilizer bars by
switching a hydraulic circuit using electronic control. When driving on-road, the passage of fluid between the front and rear hydraulic
cylinders is blocked and the effectiveness of the stabilizer bars is utilized to suppress the roll of the vehicle while cornering.
During off-road driving, the passage of fluid between the front and rear hydraulic cylinders is opened and the effectiveness of the
stabilizer bars is restrained. In this way, the suspension stroke is maintained, and off-road driveability is improved.

2010 Toyota 4Runner Add to Rich Heritage With More Power, Better MPG
When the first Toyota 4Runner sport utility vehicle (SUV) was launched back in 1984 it was a revolutionary new vehicle based on the mechanics of the four-wheel-drive Toyota pickup truck. The 4Runner combined the versatility and go-anywhere ability of four-wheel-drive with the comfort and utility found in passenger cars.
Twenty-five years, four generations and more than 1.5 million sales later, the 4Runner continues to evolve while remaining close to its roots. The all-new fifth-generation 4Runner is even more rugged and athletic, and packed with more power and better mileage. A completely redesigned interior and unique cargo area make the newest 4Runner smarter, more comfortable, and more versatile than ever.
“Backed by a quarter-century of heritage combined with the integration of the latest comfort, convenience and performance technologies, the all-new fifth-generation 4Runner has evolved into one of the most advanced mid-sized truck-based SUV’s on the market while at the same time staying true to its roots as a rugged and durable off-roader,” said Bob Carter, group vice president and general manager of Toyota Division.
More rugged than the Highlander and more versatile than the FJ Cruiser, the 4Runner combines the toughness and durability of body-on-frame construction with multi-use design that excels at a wide variety of tasks.
The newest 4Runner is taller, wider and longer for 2010, and is available in a variety of configurations. It will be offered in three models, top-of-the-line Limited, a well-equipped SR5, plus a Trail grade for those who require maximum off-road capability.
Drivetrain configurations include rear wheel 4x2, part-time 4x4 and full-time multi-mode 4x4 with a locking center differential. All 4x4 models are equipped with a 4.0-liter V6 mated to a five-speed ECT-i automatic transmission. The 4x2 models will be equipped with either a 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine mated to a four-speed ECT automatic or the 4.0-liter V6 with the five-speed ECT-i automatic. Optional third-row seats allow for up to seven-person capacity.
The design strategy for the new 4Runner emphasizes a more rugged, powerful stance. Large diameter wheels and tires were added to not only improve off-road performance, but also enhance the 4Runner’s truck-based characteristics. In addition to its styling emphasis on ruggedness and outdoor adventure, the new design utilizes a combination of Toyota’s classic boxy form and progressive styling.
All 4Runner grades feature rugged new bumpers and wider shoulders, with newly designed head- lamp and tail-light systems, which offer a newly-minted, technical design quality and better nighttime performance. The front ends square fender flares meld with a muscular profile that links with a beefy and square rear bumper and back door.
Aluminum alloy wheels are 17-inches in diameter on SR5 and Trail grades and 20-inches on the Limited, and include a full size spare.
In addition to its distinctive front grille, the SR5 grade also adopts overfenders and mud guards to help tackle inclement weather and off-road conditions. A roof rack comes standard for hauling equipment for outdoor activities.
The Trail grade is designed to maximize off-road performance with a superior approach and departure angles, high ground clearance, and an array of functional upgrades for the most demanding active outdoor enthusiast. It can be distinguished by a unique hood scoop, unique 17-inch wheels, black outer mirrors, front and rear bumper guards and dark smoke treatment on the head and tail lamps.
The Limited and SR5 grades add to the muscular design with special touches that provide a premium appearance. The front end includes a chrome-plated front grille insert, fog lamp bezel and front bumper molding. Front and rear overfenders and side skirts are color-keyed. Chrome plating is also found on the side molding, roof rack and rear bumper.
Turn signals on SR5 and Limited V6 grades are now incorporated into the outside mirrors, along with puddle lamps.
4Runner is available in six exterior colors. Three new colors, Shoreline Blue Pearl, Magnetic Gray Metallic and Classic Silver Metallic, join carryovers Blizzard Pearl, Salsa Red Pearl and Black.
2010 SR5 V6 4x4 shown in Salsa Red Pearl (3Q3)
2010 Limited 4x4 shown in Shoreline Blue Pearl (8V5)
2010 SR5 V6 4x4 shown in Magnetic Gray Metallic (1G3)
New Engine Choices
The 2010 4Runner is powered by a new 4.0-liter V6, which now generates 270 horsepower and 278 lb-ft of torque. Through the use of advanced engine management that includes dual independent Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i), the new 4.0-liter engine offers the best of both worlds, adding more power while improving efficiency. For 2010, the new V6 engine produces 34 horsepower more than the prior V6, and 10 horsepower more than the optional V8 of the previous generation.
Additional mileage improvements have come from careful attention to wind flow, reducing aerodynamic drag to a Cd of 0.365. EPA-estimated mileage improves from 16 city and 21 highway to 17 city/23 highway for the 4x2, and from 16 city and 20 highway to 17 city/22 highway for 4x4 models. Both achieve an EPA-estimated 19 mpg combined, an improvement of more than five percent. With the new 4.0-liter engine, maximum towing capacity is 5,000 pounds.
In addition to the upgraded V6 engine, a proven 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine with VVT-i is available on the 4x2 SR5 model. The gutsy DOHC, 16-valve 2.7 makes 157 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of torque. Mated to a four-speed automatic transmission with 2.80:1 first gear and 0.753 overdrive 4th, the 2.7 delivers 18 city/23 highway mpg.
4x4 Capability Designed-In
To build on its tradition of rugged body-on-frame construction, the newest 4Runner shares the same platform as the FJ Cruiser. Extensive frame and body reinforcements have been added, using high-tensile materials to add strength without adding weight. SR5 and Trail 4x4 models have a two-speed lever-operated, part-time system with neutral position, while the 4Runner Limited is equipped with full-time, four-wheel-drive with a locking center differential and employs a three-mode, center console-mounted switch. The new 4Runner is also equipped with a stronger rear differential over the previous model, thanks to a gear ring that has increased in size from 7.87 to 8.18 inches.
To enhance grip, the A-TRAC system is now standard equipment on all 4x4 models. The system can distribute driving force to any one wheel in contact with the ground, making terrain irregularities and slippery patches transparent to the driver. An electronic-locking rear differential is standard on the Trail grade. Axles house 3.73 gears, or 4.56:1 with the 2.7-liter engine and the differential housings have improved seals for better resistance to mud and water.
An array of advanced features, formerly only available in the Land Cruiser, further boosts off-highway capabilities. The Trail grade offers Toyota’s Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System (KDSS) as an option. KDSS radically improves terrain-following ability by disconnecting stabilizer bars to allow for more axle travel, and better suspension articulation in slow, difficult terrain.
Toyota’s Crawl Control (CRAWL) feature is standard on the Trail grade. CRAWL is an adjustable electro-mechanical system that can be tuned to match the terrain by selecting any of five speed levels. The system maintains an appropriate speed that keeps the vehicle under control and minimizes the load on drivetrain and suspension components. The CRAWL feature helps make traversing difficult terrain easier and safer. With the transfer case shifted into low range, Crawl Control regulates engine speed and output (along with braking force), to propel the vehicle forward or in reverse at one of the five low-speed settings. This allows the driver to maintain focus while steering over very rough level ground or steep grades, without having to also modulate the throttle, or brake, pedals.
The Trail grade also features a Multi-Terrain Select system which allows the 4x4 operator to dial in wheel slip control to match the terrain. In loose terrain such as mud and sand, more-than-normal wheel slip is permitted, allowing wheel-spin to work in the vehicle’s favor. On bumpy moguls, or solid rock, wheel slip is minimized and the system acts more like a limited slip. The Mogul setting is for any extremely uneven terrain, such as V-ditches, slopes, and ridges, uphill or down.
All 4Runner 4x4 models are standard-equipped with Downhill Assist Control (DAC), which is designed to augment the low-speed ascending ability of low-range by holding the vehicle to a target speed with no driver intervention. All V6 4Runner models come standard with Hill-start Assist Control (HAC), which provides additional control for off-road driving by helping to keep the vehicle stationary while starting on a steep incline or slippery surface.
On-Road Driving Dynamics
The new 4Runner may be a truck-based SUV, but it offers the kind of drivability and riding comfort more often associated with car-based platforms.
Coil springs over gas shocks are used at all four corners for a comfortable ride and controlled handling. A double-wishbone independent front suspension, combined with new, variable-flow rack and pinion steering, makes for precise control on demanding roadways. The four-link rear suspension minimizes rear axle hop and assures a smooth ride for back seat passengers.
The Limited grade comes standard with an X-REAS suspension system that further improves performance, comfort and control. X-REAS automatically adjusts the damping force of shocks when driving over bumpy surfaces, or when cornering. The system uses a center control absorber to cross-link shocks on opposite corners of the vehicle, substantially reducing pitch and yaw by offsetting opposing inputs. With X-REAS the new 4Runner corners flatter, smoother, and handles choppy pavement more easily.
Every Safety Precaution Considered
On-road vehicle dynamics are further enhanced by a suite of high-performance, state-of-the-art safety systems. Standard on 4Runner is Toyota’s Star Safety System™, which includes Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) with traction control (TRAC), an Anti-Lock Brake System with Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist. Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) helps to ensure stability by compensating for oversteer or understeer. The system uses selective braking and modulated engine output to keep the vehicle in line with the driver’s intended course. On 4x2 vehicles, the Auto LSD (Limited Slip Differential) system allows for better traction on slippery sections of roadway.
The four-wheel ABS with EBD provides the 4Runner anti-lock stopping control with optimal brake proportioning, whether the vehicle is loaded or unloaded. Hill-start Assist Control (HAC), standard on all 4x4 models and the 4x2 V6, suppresses backward roll when switching from brake to accelerator. All 2010 4Runners have active headrests for driver and passenger, three-point seat belts for all seats, an energy-absorbing body structure and an energy-absorbing hood to help protect pedestrians.
A system of eight standard airbags includes front, side-mounted and knee airbags for the driver and front passenger, and side curtain airbags for the second and third row.
The 2010 4Runner now offers the new Safety Connect™ telematics system. Available by subscription, with or without the optional navigation system, Safety Connect offers four safety and security features: Automatic Collision Notification, Stolen Vehicle Location, Emergency Assistance Button (SOS), and Roadside Assistance.
In case of either airbag deployment or severe rear-end collision Automatic Collision Notification is designed to automatically call a response center. If a response agent cannot communicate with the occupants, the agent can contact the nearest emergency-services provider to dispatch assistance.
Pushing the in-vehicle “SOS” button allows drivers to reach the response center to request help in an emergency as well as for a wide range of roadside assistance needs. If a 4Runner equipped with Safety Connect is stolen, after a police report is filed and the driver contacts the response center, agents can work with local authorities to help locate and recover the vehicle.
Safety Connect is standard, factory-installed hardware on the 4Runner Limited and available via an active subscription. An included one year trial subscription will be offered on equipped new vehicle purchases.
A rear-view monitor system is standard on Limited and Trail grades and optional on the SR5. The system displays in the rear-view mirror, helping to keep track of hard-to-see objects to the rear of the vehicle. A rear clearance sonar system is standard on SR5 models.
Everyday Convenience and Utility
The all-new 4Runner has been thoughtfully equipped with features and systems to create a comfortable travel space, allowing for convenient operation in everyday use.
The larger interior has been completely redesigned with comfort and utility in mind. The front seats have a greater range of adjustment, both vertically and front to rear.
A bright, highly visible dash houses speedometer, tachometer, voltage, fuel and temp gauges, plus a combination meter that offers multiple functions. An Eco-Driving feedback system allows the driver to manage fuel consumption in real time. Within easy reach of the driver is an overhead console that organizes the off-road control switches into one location. Features like a compass indicator and outside temperature display add functionality in outdoor settings.
A manual climate control air conditioning system is standard on SR5 and Trail grades. An automatic dual zone climate control air conditioning system is standard on the Limited. The system features driver and passenger independent temperature controls, providing separate comfort levels.
For second-row passengers, a newly sculpted front seat-back shape provides additional knee space. A center armrest has been added, and the second-row seats now individually recline up to 16 degrees in four steps.
Third-row seating has been enhanced with a larger, more supportive seating area. Access to the third row has been improved by splitting the second-row seats into a 40/20/40 configuration and adopting a one-touch walk-in function.
A rich leather interior is standard on the Limited grade and optional on SR5. The interior sports newly designed interior color schemes, using Black (Limited only), and Sand Beige. Graphite and Sand Beige fabric is standard on SR5 and Trail. Water-resistant fabric seats are standard equipment of Trail models.
The cargo area has been re-engineered to be more versatile than any SUV on the market.
More cargo space is available due to the fold-flat second-row rear seats, which do not require removal of the headrest for rearrangement. For models with three rows of seats, the third row seats are split 50/50, and they readily fold flat to allow the seatback to become the floor of the luggage compartment. They can be folded from the side, or at the rear, using separate one-touch mechanisms. With this new arrangement, more cargo space is available without removing seats, and longer items can be conveniently stored.
A Smart Key System featuring keyless entry with push-button start is standard on the Limited grade. The system allows the driver to unlock or start the vehicle by carrying the keyless remote. The back door window has jam control, like the moonroof and power side windows.
Another convenience feature is an available pull-out cargo deck that is capable of carrying up to 440 pounds of weight. The cargo deck slides out to make loading heavy items easier. When extended, the sturdy cargo deck can also be used to provide seating, sheltered by the hatch, for tailgating and campsite relaxation. For models with the sliding deck, a 6.4-liter capacity storage box has been installed behind the rear seat, for handy storage of tools or other items.
Audio with “Party Mode”
The SR5 base audio system has an AM/FM/CD player with eight speakers, providing quality sound throughout the cabin and is XM® Satellite Radio capable with a SDARS tuner.
Standard audio on the Trail grade and optional on SR5 is an AM/FM/MP3 CD player with eight speakers, integrated XM Satellite Radio (includes 90-day trial subscription), USB port with iPod connectivity, hands-free phone capability and music streaming via Bluetooth® Wireless Technology, and steering wheel audio controls.
The Premium JBL audio system has a six-disk in-dash CD changer and 15 speakers for outstanding audio performance. For models equipped with the optional navigation system, a four-disk CD changer is used, and XM Satellite Radio, Bluetooth, and iPod with MP3 control functions are included, with 15-speaker JBL audio. Reception has been enhanced on and off-road by adopting a fender-mounted, pole-type antenna. The navigation system includes a large seven-inch monitor and features an eco function that allows you to monitor fuel consumption per minute in real time, and fuel consumption per interval.
A “party mode” setting raises the bass and transfers the equalization to the rear of the vehicle to provide excellent outside audio for tailgating. Party mode benefits from rear hatch-mounted speakers and is actuated by a switch, installed in the instrument panel to the right of the driver’s seat (rear hatch speakers function with, or without, party mode).
“In 1984 the first 4Runner helped cultivate and foster the up-and-coming SUV market, said Carter. “When the new 4Runner launches later this fall it will continue to be a perfect fit for young, and young-at-heart, outdoor and off-road enthusiasts.”
Prices for the all-new fifth-generation 4Runner will range from $27,500 for the SR5 grade 4x2 with a four-cylinder engine to $39,800 for the Limited grade 4x4 V6. The pricing represents an excellent value as 4Runner starts with a price point more than $1,000 less than the current generation’s lowest price model.
The MSRP of the most popular selling 4Runner, the SR5 4x4 V6, will remain the same as the previous generation at $30,915 even though it receives more than $1,700 in added equipment. Value is further enhanced on all 4Runner grades with an array of performance, safety and convenience upgrades.
Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc., reported 2010 4Runner total calendar year-end sales of 46,531 units, up 136.5% from prior year.

A common cause of heel pain, plantar fasciitis can cripple anyone from marathon runners to runners. tiger woods.
Although one of the most common of all soft tissue injuries, this condition is caused by inflammation of the plantar fascia (the ligament under the skin on the bottom of each foot) (hence the name “-itis”). as shown). says the expert. It is also a mechanical failure requiring physical intervention. stretch And strengthen the ligaments and muscles of the foot.
If you have plantar fasciitis, you can’t just rest your feet. Researchers say the soles of the feet are extended, the arch of the foot is tensioned, and supportive shoes are worn to gradually return to walking.
Common treatments for plantar fasciitis include cooling and immobilizing the foot to combat the inflammation. Prolonged bed rest (the first step in a “RICE” treatment regimen consisting of rest, ice, compression, and elevation) may increase recovery time for the plantar fascia, they said. Keith BarrProfessor of Molecular Exercise Physiology, University of California, Davis.
“The lack of exercise and immobilization actually make the injury worse,” Barr says.
Burr and other experts say to speed up recovery, you need to stretch your legs to put tension on the plantar fascia and physically stretch the ligaments to promote healing.

In this step-by-step video course, you'll learn how to rig a Skeleton 3d model. We'll be using Blender - the free and open-source 3d content creation suite - and the free auto-rigging system Rigify.
The final result from the course
By the end of the course, you'll have a fully rigged skeleton model, animated using mocap and retargeting. You can even get it ready for export to a game engine, should you wish to.
Why rigging a skeleton is Difficult
The rigging and weight painting techniques you learn in most tutorials are meant for "standard" characters with skin and clothing.
Rigify offers amazing features such as twist bones (aided by bendy bones) out of the box.
Automatic Weights and advanced add-ons such as Voxel Heat Skinning help us quickly skin connected meshes.
However, when applied to a Skeleton, many of these techniques are not just useless ...but they cause more problems than they solve. :)
How this Course can help you
In the course, you'll learn:
- how to tweak the default Rigify settings and make Rigify suitable for rigging a Skeleton.
- special weight paint techniques to quickly and efficiently bind the mesh bones to the rig bones. Many bones in the skeleton need to stay solid at all times (leg bones, upper arm, cranium, etc.) while others need to bend or twist (lower arm bones, spine, ribcage, etc).
- custom rigging techniques. You can rig almost the entire skeleton with simple Rigify building blocks. But to achieve certain advanced effects we'll need to create custom rigs from scratch. I will show you how to create those and also, how to seamlessly integrate them with the other Rigify parts.
Simple or Advanced: The choice is yours
Whenever possible, I tried to give you a choice between simple and advanced techniques.
- The "simple" techniques will help you achieve good results with minimal effort.
- The advanced techniques will show you how to get even better results with some additional effort
Not exactly a Beginner's course
This is a step-by-step tutorial but a basic knowledge of Blender is required. I'd also recommend a basic understanding of Rigify. If you are new to Rigify I am going to provide the necessary resources to get you up to speed with Rigify. Just understand that you may need to do some additional learning before diving into the Skeleton lessons.
Part 1: Intro & Resources
Just saying "hi", and introducing you to the course, resources, and ways to contact me.
Part 2: Mesh Prep
"If you fail to plan, you plan to fail". We'll prepare the model and organize the scene. This will make our rigging work much easier
Part 3: Metarig
We'll quickly align a standard metarig to the skeleton. It will need a lot of customization down the line but it's a start.
The next 5 parts will each focus on the rigging and weight painting of a specific section of the skeleton.
Part 4: Legs, Feet, Teos
Part 5: Arms, Hands, Fingers
Part 6: Torso (Pelvis, Spine, Ribcage)
Part 7: Clavicle and Scapula
Part 8: Head, Neck, Jaw
With that, the skeleton rigging is done but I have included additional chapters that you may enjoy.
Part 9: Custom Rigify Script
We'll be using a new feature of Rigify (Blender 3.0+) which allows us to run a script as soon as we generate the rig. This way we can customize the rig even further and in ways that are not possible otherwise.
Part 10: CleanUp
An important but often neglected part of rigging: clean up your scene, and double-check that everything works!
Part 11: Props
We'll give the skeleton Props that it can hold (a shield and a sword, how original!)
Part 12: Retargeting
I'll show you my workflow for retargeting using the Rokoko addon (free) to correctly transfer mocap data to the Rigify rig (including IK retargeting)
Part 13: Game Engines export (Coming soon!)
Out of the box, the Rigify rig is not meant for export to game engines. But I'll show you a solid workflow to export a clean game rig to Unreal or Unity (or any other engine).
Part 14: Conclusion
For the superstitious among you who would feel uneasy if the course had 13 chapters.
English subtitles (auto-generated)
I strive to speak clearly but to aid comprehension I have included subtitles for all videos in the course (srt, sbv, and vtt formats). The subtitles are fairly accurate but since they are automatically generated there may be slight inconsistencies such as "rigify" being subtitled "rigidify" or "pose mode" = "pause mode" etc. :)
I am here to help
If you are ever stuck while following the course, you can always email me and I'll try to help you. You'll find my contact information when you purchase the course. Or if you want to ask me something before buying, please see: https://cgdive.com/contact
Is the Skeleton 3d model included?
Yes, you'll have access to the same 3d model that I am using in the videos. You can also use your own model if you prefer.
What version of Blender will I need?
The version I use in the video is 3.1 and I recommend that you use the same or later. However, you will be able to follow along with older versions such as 2.93 or even 2.83 LTS. In the videos, I try to anticipate that people may be using different versions of Blender and try to suggest what to do.
Are the skeleton and rig anatomically correct?
Not in a scientific sense. We will be rigging a skeleton model for animation, games, etc. While the result is fairly realistic, it is not a simulation of real skeletal anatomy.
The tone of the course is casual and you will rarely hear me use the Latin name of bones etc. (because I don't know them ... Wait, did I say that out loud? )
Can I rig a cartoony skeleton with the same techniques?
I think so but I can't guarantee it. If it's just the looks and proportions that are cartoony, then it should be fine. But if you need, say, extreme limb bending, you may need to improvise and change the setup somewhat.

Faith and Patience
Faith has been likened to a seed, a mustard seed. When you plant a seed, you nurture it, water it, give it nutrients and ensure it has the right atmosphere for its growth.
Seeds require a particular climate to grow. Plant an apple seed in a tropical climate and you have so much work on your hands for it to grow. Plant a mango tree in the same climate and it’s a walk in the park!
So if you’re believing God for divine health, surround yourself with scriptures, teachings and people that will help your faith in that area. Whatever it is, make sure the climate for it is right.
Your seed also doesn’t grow the same day you plant it. Faith requires patience, a lot of it. Don’t settle for an inferior immediate reward. Suffer long to receive faith’s great and lasting reward.
You will eventually get what you’re believing God for, but wait for it. Patience is a good virtue to have when walking with the LORD.
I pray for everyone who has faithfully trusted in you LORD, waiting patiently for their miracles. Manifest Your power in their situations. And give them the reward for their faith in you and in Your word, in Yeshua’s mighty name. #Selah.
Have joyful day. Agape ❤

Why doesn't Spine return an error code when exporting from the command line?
I get the following error:
Image for slot [slot: effects/Froth_1, bone: Effects] not found: effects/Froth_1
And my pipeline happily runs with no way to alert us to an error. These piplelines compile every .spine file overnight so they are unattended. Some kind of error code would be nice. Or even some consistent formatting so the error could be grepped out of the output?

Are ‘missing’ construction workers re-appearing?
In surveys, builders keep flagging one major concern: they can’t find enough labor to keep up with their workflow.
Yet construction hiring was one of the brightest spots in a stellar November jobs report, with 46,000 jobs added. Residential construction hiring has averaged 10,400 in 2015, down a bit from 13,525 per month in 2014, but still strong.
“Actions we’ve been taking to attract labor are starting to pay off,” said David Crowe, chief economist for the National Association of Home Builders.
Builders are stepping up outreach to all kinds of nontraditional groups, like veterans, Crowe said. They’re partnering with community colleges and local unions to develop training programs. And yes, they’re also starting to raise wages, though that’s on a piecemeal, local basis.
Still, Crowe said he’s “been making it clear” to builders and local builder associations that the relative wage premium that construction workers enjoyed before the housing bust has fallen. He said his efforts have been met with “reluctant acknowledgment” but also some concern about passing on wage increases to bargain-hunting homebuyers.
The NAHB has taken some heat for what many analysts consider grandstanding about the difficulty of finding workers. Mark Price, a labor economist with the Keystone Research Center who’s studied the issue, called himself “pretty skeptical of claims of a skill or worker shortage in construction because I don’t see rapid growth in wages in this sector.”
If builders are starting to come around to the reality of paying up to attract workers, that should start to show up in the Labor Department data within a few months, Price said.
Price’s calculations show that from April 2006 to January 2011, the peak and trough of the most recent cycle, residential construction shed 1.5 million jobs, or 42.4% of the industry.
The question of where those “missing builders” went has taken on a life of its own. The Wall Street Journal has followed the question closely, and researchers at the Census Bureau also investigated.
Their research found that 60% of displaced construction workers left the labor market altogether or moved into other industries.
Price thinks those industries are most likely lower-wage sectors like hospitality and retail, areas which even during the early, anemic part of the recovery, were “growing and offering more certainty than construction was.”
He thinks certainty, even more than higher wages, may be the issue that’s holding up more robust hiring of construction workers, especially as the job market keeps heating up. “Workers are probably asking, how much work do you have? How long are you going to have work? Even if you’re offering slightly higher wages, I think I’d be asking how much promise do you have that I’m going to have this work once this project is over. “

What is your Zodiac Sign if you were born on February 2?
If you are born on February 2nd your Zodiac sign is Aquarius.
As an Aquarius born on February 2nd, you try to be unique in some way. Being unique is a very big personal value to you.
This is due to the fact that you often look at everybody else as simply being generic. It seems that whatever differences they may have is, at best, cosmetic, and at worst, a simple label, that people can take on or off.
You tend to look very highly on your own personal uniqueness. You think you are a very special person.
Not surprisingly, a lot of people tend to dismiss you as somebody who is just trying to create a trend, or worse yet, a person who’s just starved for attention.
You also tend to have a very strong artistic side. However, learn that to get good at art or any kind of creative expression, you have to sacrifice time, effort, and energy.
In many cases, you often feel that your artistic expression is so refined enough in its raw form that people would be able to “get it”. They rarely did.

While facts do have its place with you, you’re more interested in possibilities, and the ability to take what exist and extend to its imaginative possibility.

You are ready to say the answer, and that’s why you tend to be quite persuasive.
People born on February 2 Personality Traits
Aquarius people generally speaking, are very creative people. They live in an ideal world and coming up with new innovative perspectives are not difficult for them.
The big challenge for you is not coming up with an idea, but making sure that the idea is realistic enough based on the logistics, infrastructure and resources you have available to you.
It’s one thing to come up with something interesting, it’s another to come up with something innovative and practical.
On an emotional level, you tend to be quite secretive. You often feel that you are the only different person in the room and you feel that people simply won’t get you.
You’d be surprised as to how conventional your emotions can turn out to be.
Positive traits of the February 2 Zodiac
People born on the 2nd of February are, by definition, honest, talented, and creative. You place a high premium on honesty and integrity because you believed in the ideas.

Negative traits of the February 2 Zodiac:
The negative traits of people born on this day really boil down to their tendency to view themselves as separate, and special from everybody else.
Well, the sad truth is that, we are actually more alike than we give ourselves credit for. A lot of the things that you are feeling are not new.
People have felt them before, people are feeling them now, and guess what, people will probably experience them long into the future.
This doesn’t mean that you are not special. It doesn’t mean that you are a hag. You are not unique in the absolute sense of the word.
What this does mean is that you need to be more open-minded about commonalities instead of just trying to bang a drum regarding how special and different you are.
February 2 Element
Air is the paired element of all Aquarius people. For people born on February 2, the aspect of air that is most relevant to you is its explosive nature.

My top tips for those with a February 2nd Birthday –

Do yourself a big favor and stay focused on one or two things at a time.

If You Often Dream About Beaches, Then You Should Do This

Often, there will be tons of different themes arising in these dreams that can be fun to dive into and explore more.
However, if you were born on 2nd February, watch out for those nights you dream of beaches, the shoreline or the sea in general.
These dreams often occur when you’re most in need of indulging your personal freedom.
As an Aquarius, it’s very important that you have the personal freedom to explore new ideas and concepts, and when dreaming of the beach, your mind is calling to unknown shores over the horizon – the new frontiers, so to speak, that you are yet to uncover.
Beaches can also indicate a need to relax or recover from the stresses and strains of life, so you can take the literal hint to book a vacation from beach dreams if you want!
Final Thought for the February 2 Zodiac –
Your main challenge is to mature in terms of your need for attention. Just because people are not giving you adulation and praising all the time, doesn’t necessarily mean that they don’t appreciate you.
You need to understand that appreciation also takes many different forms. Just because you have a particular picture of how being valued looks like, it doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s the only game in town.

Whether you drive for Lyft full-time or part-time, you’re now enjoying the pay, perks, and prerogatives of being self-employed—from setting your own hours to building customer relations. With the onset of tax season, you face a new business challenge: filing your taxes in a way that minimizes your tax liability. Follow these tips on how to use your Lyft 1099 to complete your tax return and maximize your tax deductions.
• If you were paid more than $600 in non-driving income such as referral bonuses, you should receive Form 1099-NEC to document these payments.
• For 2022, if you receive more than $20,000 and 200 transactions for ride payments during the tax year, Lyft is required to send Form 1099-K to you and the IRS. This threshold is reduced to $600 without regard to the number of transactions beginning in 2023.
• You’re required to report all the income you earn, whether you receive a 1099 or not. See your Lyft Driver Dashboard for a complete record of how much you earned in driving and non-driving income.
Two kinds of 1099 tax forms
Since you are in business for yourself and not an employee of Lyft, you will not receive a W-2 wage and tax statement from the ridesharing company. Instead, you’ll probably receive one or more 1099s, depending on how much you earned from certain services. Here are the forms you are likely to receive and the IRS requirements for issuing them:
- For tax years beginning in 2023, Form 1099-K if you generated more than $600 in third-party payment transactions or for tax years before 2023 if you generated more than 200 third-party payment transactions and more than $20,000 in gross ride receipts. This is the IRS requirement, however, you are likely to receive the 1099-K even if you have fewer transactions with less gross receipts. There is no threshold for payment card transactions.
- A 1099-NEC (1099-MISC in prior years) if you received $600 or more in non-driving income (e.g. new city bonuses, mentoring, referral fees)
Keep in mind, you are responsible for reporting all the income you earn, whether you receive a 1099 or not. For example, if you earned $400 in referral fees, you may need to report that income, even if you didn’t receive a 1099-NEC. You can always see exactly how much you earned in driving and non-driving income on your Lyft Driver Dashboard.
Many new Lyft drivers have the misconception that they only need to report income reported on a 1099. This isn’t true; all income must be reported. Failing to report your income can cause tax problems down the road. The IRS can audit your taxes going back three tax years (or six years if the IRS finds you have under reported your income by 25%). If you report both driving and non-driving income next year, but only report driving income this year, that might raise a red flag for the IRS.
Reading your 1099s
Your 1099s include many boxes, but you usually only need to be concerned with one box on each form:
- Box 1a on 1099-K
- Box 1 on 1099-NEC
These report your gross earnings in each category.
You might notice that the amount in Box 1a of 1099-K is larger than the total amount you actually got paid. This is not an error. The figure on the form reflects the total amount your customers paid, including the Lyft commission. Don’t worry, generally you can deduct Lyft fees from your income as a business expense.
Please refer to your Lyft Annual Summary for details about your earnings, online miles, and business related expenses which may be deductible. The ability to deduct business related expenses may vary based on how you set up your business. Online miles are the sum of all miles:
- Driven while you waited for a ride
- Were en-route to a passenger
- While you were on a ride
How and where to report your Lyft income
As a business owner, you’ll calculate your ridesharing earnings on Schedule C, Profit or Loss from Business. If you are using TurboTax Premium, check out How do I enter my Lyft tax information? for step-by-step instructions.
- The total of your driving and non-driving income goes on line 1.
- You’ll subtract your business expenses from your income to find the “net profit or (loss)” from your business and enter that figure on line 31 of Schedule C. Your business expenses will reduce your income and your tax liability.
- You’ll enter the Lyft commission on line 10, “commissions and fees.”
The Lyft Annual Summary sheet also reports your Online Miles, which might only be a portion of your business miles. You’ll enter your total business mileage on Schedule C. These miles are the starting point for calculating your “car or truck expenses,” which you will report on Schedule C.
You’ll use Schedule C to deduct all your business expenses and calculate your business profit. You’ll then report your business profit to the IRS in two places:
- Form 1040, your personal tax form, where you will enter the income you earned from all sources: W-2/employee work, other self-employment, unemployment, etc.
- Schedule SE, if your total business income was $400 or more, for calculating self-employment taxes (Social Security and Medicare)
TurboTax Tip: If you receive multiple 1099s for your ridesharing business, you can combine the income from all of them on one Schedule C, since they all relate to the same business. However, if you have another side gig, such as cleaning services, you’ll typically complete a separate Schedule C for that business.
Do I need to complete separate Schedule Cs or SEs for the 1099-K and 1099-NEC?
No. You can combine the income from both 1099s on one Schedule C, since both forms relate to the same business. In fact, you can include the income from any other driving services you may have provided on the same Schedule C.
If you earn self-employment income from other types of businesses, you’ll need to complete a separate Schedule C for each business you run. For example, if you operate a Homejoy cleaning services business, you’ll complete a separate Schedule C for it. To report all your annual income, you’ll need to total up all the profit from your Schedule Cs and use this number on both Form 1040 and Schedule SE.
What mileage can I claim as a business expense for my Lyft driving?
Lyft’s Annual Summary sheet and your Driver Dashboard both show all miles driven while you waited for a ride, were en-route to a passenger, and while you were on a ride. You generally can report all this mileage, because you were working at the time. You might be able to deduct additional mileage if you can show that it was related to your business. To claim business miles from offline driving, you must have detailed records of each trip, including its purpose.
Why are there two 1099s for my ridesharing business?
The rules for the issuance of forms 1099-K and 1099-NEC are spelled out by the U.S. tax code. Lyft provides both to be in full compliance with IRS rules.
Do I send my 1099s to the government along with my tax return?
No. Forms 1099 are not returned with your tax return. Use them to calculate your gross income and then keep them for your records. If you didn’t receive one or both 1099s, report the income from your Driver Dashboard and take a screenshot or print out the page for your records.
With TurboTax Live Full Service Premium, have a dedicated expert uncover every tax deduction and file your investment and self-employment taxes for you. Backed by our Full Service Guarantee.

Every week there’s a new diet that people are talking about, from a cabbage soup diet to a baby food diet.
Fad diets might seem like an easy way to lose weight, but most of them simply don’t work. They all involve cutting something out of the diet, when the best way to stay healthy is to get the right amount of all the food groups.
You might lose a lot of weight really fast if you stick to one of these diets, but the weight does tend to come back when you return to eating normally. Plus, there’s a danger to your health if you’re not getting enough vitamins and minerals.
Detox diets are particularly popular at the moment. It’s claimed that they cleanse your body of toxins and can help you lose weight.
If you’re considering starting a detox diet talk to you GP first, because some can be harmful to your health. The Irish Nutrition and Dietetic website has some good information on detox diets.
If you eat a balanced, nutritious diet and combine it with regular exercise, you should be able to reach a weight that’s right for you. For more information on making sure you’re a healthy weight, talk to your local GP.
Taking your body mass index (BMI) can also be a good starting point for evaluating your weight. Check the Nutrition and Health Foundation to calculate your BMI.
Don’t stress out
While it’s important to eat healthily, becoming too focused on your diet can lead to negative thinking. Don’t view food as the enemy. If you eat something unhealthy, try not to feel guilty, just aim to eat more healthily the next day.
If you feel like you’re stressing out about what you eat, or how much you weigh it could be a sign of a bigger issue. There is lot’s of support for eating disorders. Bodywhys is a great organisation to check out for more information.

A song about the safe spaces we create for ourselves, and the
exhaustion of feeling scrutinised outside of these boundaries.
Turn Up The Volume wrote: “A lot of angst and frustration erupt from the
very first moment that this raging burst attacks your stereo. Daylight Robbery‘s
sizzling post-punk exorcism grabs you by the throat from the get-go and never

you’ll experience a mind-crushing nightmare in broad daylight.”
HAVVK has now launched a brand-new video to visualize the song.
The clip explores themes of expectation and infringement of safety,
particularly for women and gender non-conforming people. It was directed

Hough: “It’s about a girl who’s living the same day (or nightmare) over and over again.

In today’s hyper-competitive business landscape, where customer-centric strategies reign supreme, two essential acronyms have taken center stage: ICP and ABM. Mastering the concepts of an ideal customer profile (ICP) and account-based marketing (ABM) can be the key to unlocking growth, increasing ROI, and building stronger, more meaningful customer relationships.
In this post, we’ll explore the significance of ICPs in relation to your ABM strategy and how they work together to supercharge your marketing efforts.
At its core, an ideal customer profile (ICP) is a detailed description of the type of customer who is most likely to benefit from your product or service. It goes beyond basic demographics and delves into firmographic and behavioral data to create a comprehensive profile of your ideal customer. Your ICP should answer questions like:
Essentially, an ICP helps you define the type of organizations you want to target, while buyer personas help you understand the individuals within those organizations and tailor your marketing efforts to their unique needs. Both concepts are valuable for effective marketing and B2B sales strategies, especially when used together. Your ICP guides your overall targeting strategy, while buyer personas provide the detailed insights needed to create personalized content, messages, and experiences that resonate with the people who matter most within those organizations.
Account-based marketing (ABM) is a targeted marketing strategy that focuses on engaging and converting targeted high-value accounts or prospects rather than casting a wide net to attract a broad audience (the blanket marketing approach). ABM takes your ICP and applies it strategically to your marketing efforts. Let’s look at how it works in detail.
Now that we have a clear understanding of ICP and ABM individually, let’s explore how they complement each other.
ICP provides the foundation for ABM by helping you identify and prioritize the right accounts to target. With a well-defined ideal customer profile, you can ensure that your ABM efforts are directed toward accounts that have a higher likelihood of converting into customers. But if you could continually improve the ICPs you work from, what would happen?
ABM takes the insights from your ICP and uses them to create highly personalized content marketing campaigns. By understanding your ideal customer’s pain points, goals, and challenges, you can craft messaging and content that resonates at a deep level. In turn, this helps deliver personalized lead nurturing to help close deals. As you collect more content engagement data, you’ll build clearer pictures of the most likely people to buy from you. Collecting data at this level informs sales pipeline growth and revenue forecasting.
When ICP and ABM work in harmony, you reduce wasteful spending on marketing efforts that don’t align with your target audience. This results in a higher return on investment (ROI) as the data you’re collecting helps direct resources to accounts most likely to convert.
Try our free ideal customer profile templates and start building better profiles.
Turtl’s highly detailed content analytics dashboard is perfect for helping you create your ICP. Turtl Docs give granular insights about readers – from time read to which widgets were used. Turtl even reveals exactly who viewed a specific part of your document – and how many times. Here’s a shot of the dashboard.
Telenet and LeadFabric used Turtl’s analytics to form a deeper understanding of their customers. This led to a 10x increase in subscribers.
In the world of modern marketing, understanding the importance of ICP in relation to ABM is crucial for success. By defining your ideal customer profile, you lay the groundwork for effective account-based marketing campaigns that engage high-value accounts with personalized content and messaging. The symbiotic relationship between ICP and ABM can lead to increased ROI, stronger customer relationships, and ultimately business growth. So, if you haven’t already, it’s time to embrace the power of ICP and ABM in your marketing strategy.
Try Turtl to see the power of engagement. You can start a free trial and get going with various templates for various types of ABM content creation.

Princess Diana's former butler believes he "must share her secrets" with her sons, Princes William and Harry.
Paul Burrell — who worked for the late royal for a decade until her death in 1997 — is preparing to undergo surgery for prostate cancer and is haunted by the idea he may be running out of time to tell the estranged brothers "the truth".
He told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "I know some of it isn't pretty, but if I leave this place and go somewhere else they’ll never know. I think they should know.
"My illness has focused my attention on telling the boys things before it's too late — telling them what they really should know. I think Diana would say to me, 'Paul, you must make this a priority. You must go and see my boys'.
"She confided in me and there are many things I have never spoken about, but now I feel the time is right."
The 64-year-old former servant wants to "try and do [his] bit" to help William and Harry reconcile and believes what he has to say could do just that.
He added: "I think what I have to say could bring the boys back together, which Diana would have desperately wanted. I will only tell them the truth, that is all. I am not looking for anything in return.
"Wouldn't it be wonderful to see the boys repair their relationship and to be back where they should be back. The public would love that. I'd applaud that.
"I'd love to see William put his arm around his brother, but I don't think we're going to see that because there are too many obstacles in the way.”
Paul is particularly keen to sit down with the Prince of Wales and "fill in the gaps of those years that are missing in his mind".
He said: "While he was away at school, he could ask me any question, and I will be able to answer. I want just to say the truth. Some of the truth may be difficult, but if he doesn't know, he's not informed.
"There are things that happened in their mother's world, which they may not have knowledge of. And I think it just might fill in some blanks.
"If we ever sat down, I would say to William, 'This is within these walls and will never come out'."

Yet another progressive hypocrite who wants everybody to panic at his climate change alarmism while living as if he doesn’t even believe it:
— New York Post (@nypost) May 21, 2016
Leo DiCaprio picked up an environmental award in NYC this week — but hypocritically expanded his carbon footprint by 8,000 miles when he obtained the honor, by taking a private jet from Cannes, then flying straight back to France on another jet for a model-packed fund-raiser a night later.
DiCaprio was at the Cannes Film Festival this week, and was spotted there partying at club Gotha on Monday with model Georgia Fowler, then jetted back to New York for the Riverkeeper Fishermen’s Ball at Chelsea Piers on Wednesday, where he was honored by the clean-water advocacy group and Robert De Niro.
The Post reports that DiCaprio “hitched a ride” on the private jet of a friend who obviously hasn’t bought into the Left’s emissions alarmism either.

Chicago, IL: The gold-selling Shekinah Glory Ministry (SGM) has a new CD, Refreshed By Fire (Kingdom Records), hitting stores this Tuesday, September 14, 2010. The new album features the majestic ballad “Just For Me’ that just debuted at #22 on the Billboard Top Gospel Digital Songs chart and is building momentum on the corresponding radio airplay chart.
Alto-voiced LaTosca House co-wrote and led SGM’s 2007 smash “Jesus” which reached #5 and spent 29 weeks on the Billboard Hot Gospel Songs chart. Now, House, who joined SGM in 2006, is back on the microphone for “Just For Me.” The song was recorded during a Standing Room Only live recording session this past May at Valley Kingdom Ministries International’s main sanctuary in Chicago.
Kingdom Records is a leader in African-American praise and worship music with hits such as Shekinah Glory Ministry’s 2001 breakthrough smash, “Praise is What I Do.” The million-selling SGM is not a choir. Instead, it’s a dynamic ensemble of psalmists, minstrels, and banner bearers who perform “under the anointing of the Holy Spirit. “ Their Hebrew name means “the glorified presence of God.” Their CDs Praise Is What I Do (#5 peak Top Gospel Albums) and Shekinah Glory Ministry Live (#3 peak Top Gospel Albums – 103 weeks on the chart) were both certified gold in 2005 and 2008 respectively. They also have three gold or platinum DVDs to their credit.
When asked what she attributes SGM’s success to, House said, “We don’t mind showing ourselves. When I have the mic, it’s me and the Lord and where He takes me is where I go. We take our focus off people and allow God to take over. When we worship God, we shouldn’t let anybody hinder us from our praise. Our impact is that we are transparent, willing vessels.”

Retrieval of Chemical Abundances in Titan's Upper Atmosphere From Cassini UVIS Observations With Pointing Motion
Cassini/Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrograph (UVIS) Far-UV observations of stellar occultations at Titan are well suited for probing its atmospheric composition and structure. However, due to instrument pointing motion, only 5 out of tens of observations have been analyzed. We present an innovative retrieval method that corrects for the effect of pointing motion by forward modeling the Cassini/UVIS instrument response function with the pointing motion value obtained from the SPICE C-kernel along the spectral dimension. To illustrate the methodology, an occultation observation made during flyby T52 is analyzed, when the Cassini spacecraft had insufficient attitude control. A high-resolution stellar model and an instrument response simulator that includes the position of the point source on the detector are used for the analysis of the pointing motion. The Markov chain Monte Carlo method is used to retrieve the line-of-sight abundance profiles of eleven species (CH4, C2H2, C2H4, C2H6, HCN, C4H2, C6N2, C6H6, haze, HC3N, and C2N2) in the spectral vector fitting process. We obtain tight constraints on all of the species aside from C2H6, C2N2, and C6N2, for which we only retrieved upper limits. This is the first time that the T52 occultation was used to derive abundances of major hydrocarbon and nitrile species in Titan's upper and middle atmosphere, as pointing motion prohibited prior analysis. With this new method, nearly all of the occultations obtained over the entire Cassini mission could yield reliable profiles of atmospheric composition, allowing exploration of Titan's upper atmosphere over seasons, latitudes, and longitudes.

The ability to make optimal decisions under uncertainty remains important across a variety of disciplines from portfolio management to power engineering. This generally implies applying some safety margins on uncertain parameters that may only be observable through a finite set of historical samples. Nevertheless, the optimized decisions must be resilient to all probable outcomes, while ideally providing some measure of severity of any potential violations in the less probable outcomes.It is known that the conditional value-at-risk (CVaR) can be used to quantify risk in an optimization task, though may also impose overly conservative margins. Therefore, this paper develops a means of co-controlling the value-at-risk (VaR) level associated with the CVaR to guarantee resilience in probable cases while providing a measure of the average violation in less probable cases. To further combat uncertainty, the CVaR and VaR co-control is extended in a distributionally robust manner using the Wasserstein metric to establish an ambiguity set constructed from finite samples, which is guaranteed to contain the true distribution with a certain confidence.

Naga Munchetty has said she “won’t put up with” trolls on social media and has an “assertive” way of dealing with them.
The BBC Breakfast host was in conversation with author Matt Haig as she filled in for Emma Barnett on BBC Radio 5 Live on Tuesday.
Speaking about how she deals with negative comments on Twitter, Munchetty said: "I have rather, shall we say, an assertive way, of dealing with people who abuse me on Twitter."
"I don't like it, I won’t put up with it," she added, noting that people "say anything" on the social media platform that they "would never say to your face".
"Not that I'm inviting anyone to say anything horrible to my face in real life, just don't say anything horrible to me," said Munchetty, 45.
Recently the presenter found herself being praised for her handling of someone dishing out online abuse.
In a now-deleted tweet, a troll called "Paul" was said to have criticised a pair of silver shoes she had worn that morning on BBC Breakfast.
In response, she messaged: "1. Add a picture of yourself to your Twitter profile,” she said.
“2. Think about what you Tweet before you write. 3. I'll leave you to guess this one.”
Paul - Three suggestions:
1. Add a picture of yourself to your Twitter profile
2. Think about what you Tweet before you write
3. I'll leave you to guess this one. https://t.co/QxzxvqrVkS
— Naga Munchetty (@TVNaga01) July 16, 2020
Last year, Munchetty made comments about Donald Trump that stirred up a storm at the BBC.
During a discussion on BBC Breakfast about the US president telling several congresswomen to "go back" to their own countries, she said that “every time I have been told, as a woman of colour, to go back to where I came from, that was embedded in racism”.
The broadcaster initially partially upheld a complaint against the presenter, saying she had breached editorial guidelines, before director-general Tony Hall reversed the decision.
Munchetty was supported by numerous high-profile figures prior to the overturning of the decision.

We propose the use of a frequency-dependent photothermal measurement as a complement to light-flash, i.e., time-dependent, measurements to determine the through-plane thermal diffusivity of small, thin samples, e.g., semiconducting polymers and small organic molecule crystals. The analysis is extended from its previous use with some opaque conducting polymers to materials with finite absorption coefficients, such as crystals of 6,13-bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl)pentacene. Taking into account the finite absorption coefficients of the latter gives a value of diffusivity, D ≈ 0.10 mm2/s, much smaller than previously estimated and more consistent with its expected value. We also briefly discuss the effects of coating samples for the measurement to improve their optical properties.

This is the beauty of the EToro system. There is no set cut off point. Some investors are just more consistent than others, while some might be profitable from time to time, but not consistently. Given that there is no rigorous or rigid set cut off point to specify who the “most prolific” or “most lucrative” are, the Filter/Select method provides you, the investor, a lot of flexibility to identify who is the most likely to earn money for you … for your particular time frame and for your particular investment objectives.
If an investor wants to exclude specific financial investments or specific time periods from his or her portfolio, they can. They likewise have the choice to keep their chosen investment mix in their own personal portfolio.
Is eToro safe for beginners?
In addition to the monetary examinations, the Financiers’ column gives the most recent (past couple of months) stock rates for popular stock categories. In this area you can learn about “hot” and “cold” stocks. Hot stock determines those that have been recently ‘hot’ (up 10% or more in a few days), and cold stock determines those that have actually dropped a couple of percentage points or more. Hot traders normally like to hang onto hot stocks, while cold traders tend to take out of financial investments that have actually dropped. Withdrawal Under Review Etoro

The Great Debate: Should Preschoolers Be Reading?
It can be challenging as a parent to determine when your kid is ready to begin reading. Others may feel it’s preferable to wait until their preschool has a natural interest in reading. Some parents may feel pressure from society to have their preschools read before they even start school. To assist you decide what is best for your kid, we will examine the reasons for and against training preschools to read in this article.
The Argument for Early Reading
Many academics agree that introducing reading to young preschools can help them succeed in school. Early reading instruction can benefit kids’ vocabulary, comprehension, and critical thinking abilities. As a result of being able to comprehend and interact with their surroundings, it can also boost their self-assurance and self-esteem.
According to research, preschools should be introduced to reading between the ages of 2 and 7, when the brain is most sensitive to learning language. By exposing preschoolers to letters, sounds, and words, parents can help them build a strong foundation for future academic success.
The Argument Against Early Reading
Although teaching preschoolers to read has many advantages, some experts feel that it is best to wait until a preschool is ready and interested in learning. When a kid is forced to read before they are ready developmentally, it can lead to frustration and anxiety, which can have a bad impact on how they feel about learning in the long run.
There is no established age at which a kid should begin reading since preschools mature at varying speeds. Preschools may get disinterested in learning and develop a bad relationship with reading if they are forced to read before they are ready.
Signs Your Preschooler May Be Ready to Read
How can you tell if your preschooler is prepared to begin reading? Observe the warning indicators listed below:
1. Interest in Letters and Words – Does your preschool show an interest in letters and words? Do they ask what letters spell or point out letters they recognize?
2. Ability to Recognize Letters – Can your preschool identify some letters of the alphabet, even if they don’t yet know their sounds?
3. Love of Books – Does your preschool enjoy being read to and like looking at books on their own?
4. Ability to Sit Still and Focus – Can your preschool sit still and focus on a task for a short period?
5. Ability to Follow Directions – Can your preschool follow simple directions, like “point to the letter A”?
These indications suggest that your preschool may be prepared to begin reading if they are present.
Tips for Teaching Your Preschooler to Read
If you’ve decided that your preschooler is ready to start learning to read, here are some tips to help you get started:
1. Start with Phonics – Teach your preschool the sounds that each letter makes, as well as how to blend sounds to make words.
2. Use Repetition – Repeat sounds and words often to help your preschool remember them.
3. Make it Fun – Use games, songs, and other fun activities to make learning to read enjoyable.
4. Read Together – Read with your preschool often and let them see you reading for pleasure as well.
5. Be Patient – Learning to read takes time, and your preschool may not pick it up right away. Be patient and supportive and let them learn at their own pace.
Alternatives to Teaching Your Preschooler to Read
There are many methods to support your preschooler’s language and literacy development even if you’ve determined that teaching them to read isn’t the best option for your family. Here are some alternatives:
1. Encourage Play-Based Learning – Preschools learn through play, so providing them with age-appropriate toys and activities can help them develop their language and cognitive skills.
2. Read Together – Even if your preschool isn’t ready to learn to read on their own, reading together can help them develop a love of books and an interest in language.
3. Exposure to Language – Speak to your preschool often and expose them to a variety of language experiences, such as songs, stories, and conversations.
4. Foster Creativity – Encourage your preschool to express themselves creatively through drawing, painting, and other forms of art. This can help them develop their communication skills and creativity.
5. Use Educational Apps – There are many educational apps and programs available that can help preschoolers develop their language and cognitive skills in a fun and engaging way.
The choice to teach your preschooler to read is ultimately a personal one that should be based on your preschool’s specific requirements and developmental stage. You may decide what’s best for your preschool by paying attention to their interests and skills.
The Role of Phonics in Early Reading
Phonics is a method of teaching reading that involves teaching preschools to associate sounds with letters or groups of letters. While some educators contend that phonics is not necessary for preschoolers, others disagree and say it is crucial for success in early reading. This can explore the benefits and drawbacks of using phonics to teach preschoolers to read.
The Importance of Reading Aloud
One of the most effective methods to promote a love of books and language in young preschools is to read aloud to them. This can go over the advantages of reading aloud, like improved vocabulary and comprehension skills, and advise parents on how to incorporate it into their preschools’ daily routines.
The Risks of Early Reading
Early reading instruction for preschools has numerous advantages, but there are also some drawbacks. This can investigate the possible drawbacks of early reading, such as the possibility of placing too much pressure on kids and leading to their complete loss of interest in reading.
Individual Learning Styles
What works for one preschooler may not work for another since every preschool learns differently. This can explore the various learning preferences preschoolers might have, such as visual, auditory, and kinesthetic, and give parents advice on how to modify their teaching style to suit their needs.
The Influence of Screen Time
Preschoolers frequently use devices like tablets and cell phones for extended periods. This can explore the potential effects of screen time on early reading development and provide tips for parents on how to balance screen time with other activities that promote language and cognitive development.
The Role of Parents in Early Reading
Parents play a crucial role in their preschoolers’ early reading development. This can explore how parents can support their preschool’s reading development, such as by creating a literacy-rich environment at home and modeling good reading habits.
The Importance of Building Vocabulary

The primary Laptop networks had been devoted Unique-goal devices like SABRE (an airline reservation procedure) and AUTODIN I (a protection command-and-Regulate procedure), each designed and implemented from the late nineteen fifties and early nineteen sixties. Via the early nineteen sixties Laptop companies had started to utilize semiconductor technological innovation in business merchandise, and each conventional batch-processing and time-sharing devices had been set up in many significant, technologically Sophisticated companies. Time-sharing devices permitted a computer’s means to be shared in speedy succession with multiple people, cycling in the queue of people so speedily that the computer appeared committed to Each individual consumer’s duties despite the existence of numerous others accessing the procedure “concurrently.” This led on the notion of sharing Laptop means (called host computers or just hosts) about a whole network. Host-to-host interactions had been envisioned, as well as use of specialized means (like supercomputers and mass storage devices) and interactive entry by remote people on the computational powers of time-sharing devices located in other places. These Suggestions had been to start with understood in ARPANET, which set up the 1st host-to-host network connection on October 29, 1969. It absolutely was produced through the Innovative Investigation Assignments Company (ARPA) of your U.S. Department of Protection. ARPANET was one of several to start with general-goal Laptop networks. It related time-sharing computers at governing administration-supported research internet sites, principally universities in the United States, and it quickly turned a essential piece of infrastructure for the computer science research Local community in the United States. Applications and apps—like the uncomplicated mail transfer protocol (SMTP, usually known as e-mail), for sending short messages, plus the file transfer protocol (FTP), for more time transmissions—speedily emerged. So as to obtain Expense-efficient interactive communications among computers, which usually talk in short bursts of knowledge, ARPANET utilized the new technological innovation of packet switching. Packet switching will take significant messages (or chunks of Laptop details) and breaks them into scaled-down, workable parts (referred to as packets) which can vacation independently about any available circuit on the target vacation spot, where by the parts are reassembled. So, as opposed to regular voice communications, packet switching isn’t going to demand a solitary devoted circuit among Each individual pair of people. Commercial packet networks had been released from the 1970s, but these had been designed principally to deliver economical use of remote computers by devoted terminals. Briefly, they replaced very long-distance modem connections by significantly less-high priced “virtual” circuits about packet networks. In the United States, Telenet and Tymnet had been two these kinds of packet networks. Neither supported host-to-host communications; from the 1970s this was even now the province of your research networks, and it would continue to be so for many years. DARPA (Protection Innovative Investigation Assignments Company; formerly ARPA) supported initiatives for floor-primarily based and satellite-primarily based packet networks. The bottom-primarily based packet radio procedure delivered cell use of computing means, when the packet satellite network related the United States with quite a few European nations around the world and enabled connections with extensively dispersed and remote regions. With all the introduction of packet radio, connecting a cell terminal to a computer network turned possible. Nevertheless, time-sharing devices had been then even now far too significant, unwieldy, and expensive to be cell or perhaps to exist outside the house a weather-controlled computing ecosystem. A solid inspiration Hence existed to attach the packet radio network to ARPANET in an effort to make it possible for cell people with uncomplicated terminals to entry time-sharing devices for which they had authorization. Similarly, the packet satellite network was used by DARPA to backlink the United States with satellite terminals serving the uk, Norway, Germany, and Italy. These terminals, having said that, had to be connected to other networks in European nations around the world in an effort to get to the end people. So arose the necessity to join the packet satellite net, plus the packet radio net, with other networks. Foundation of the online market place The online market place resulted from the effort to attach several research networks in the United States and Europe. 1st, DARPA set up a plan to research the interconnection of “heterogeneous networks.” This plan, called Internetting, was based on the freshly released principle of open up architecture networking, by which networks with described conventional interfaces could well be interconnected by “gateways.” A Functioning demonstration of your principle was planned. In order for the principle to operate, a whole new protocol had to be designed and formulated; certainly, a procedure architecture was also necessary. In 1974 Vinton Cerf, then at Stanford College in California, and this creator, then at DARPA, collaborated on the paper that to start with explained such a protocol and procedure architecture—specifically, the transmission Regulate protocol (TCP), which enabled differing types of devices on networks all over the entire world to route and assemble details packets. TCP, which originally bundled the online market place protocol (IP), a world addressing system that permitted routers for getting details packets to their final vacation spot, formed the TCP/IP conventional, which was adopted through the U.S. Department of Protection in 1980. Via the early eighties the “open up architecture” of your TCP/IP tactic was adopted and endorsed by all kinds of other researchers and inevitably by technologists and businessmen all over the world. Via the eighties other U.S. governmental bodies had been seriously involved with networking, including the Nationwide Science Foundation (NSF), the Department of Vitality, plus the Nationwide Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). While DARPA had performed a seminal part in creating a modest-scale Model of the online market place among the its researchers, NSF worked with DARPA to broaden use of all the scientific and tutorial Local community and to help make TCP/IP the conventional in all federally supported research networks. In 1985–86 NSF funded the 1st 5 supercomputing centres—at Princeton College, the College of Pittsburgh, the College of California, San Diego, the College of Illinois, and Cornell College. From the eighties NSF also funded the event and Procedure of your NSFNET, a national “spine” network to attach these centres. Via the late eighties the network was functioning at countless bits per second. NSF also funded several nonprofit area and regional networks to attach other people on the NSFNET. Several business networks also commenced from the late eighties; these had been quickly joined by others, plus the Commercial World-wide-web Trade (CIX) was formed to permit transit visitors among business networks that otherwise wouldn’t happen to be permitted around the NSFNET spine. In 1995, right after substantial evaluate of the situation, NSF resolved that guidance of your NSFNET infrastructure was not necessary, considering that quite a few business providers had been now inclined and in a position to fulfill the requirements of your research Local community, and its guidance was withdrawn. Meanwhile, NSF had fostered a competitive assortment of economic World-wide-web backbones connected to one another as a result of so-called network entry factors (NAPs).

You can earn money from YouTube by staying anywhere on earth. All you need is a stable internet connection and access to a valid Gmail account. In this section, we will discuss how to earn from YouTube. You can monetize your YouTube channel in several ways. Let’s talk about the most popular way of channel monetization. It is termed as the "YouTube Partner Program (YPP)".
YPP Monetization Requirements
To avail the opportunity of YouTube Monetization through the YouTube Partner Program (YPP), you need to fulfill some requirements. On 16th January 2018, YouTube declared the latest eligibility requirements for YPP from any YouTube channel.
Your channel must have a minimum of 1,000 subscribers.
Your channel must have a minimum of 4,000 hours (2,40,000 minutes) of watch time within the past 12 months
Your channel must comply with YouTube Terms of Service, YouTube Partner Program policies, Community Guidelines, and YouTube spam policies.
How to Check the Total Number of Subscribers
To start earning from your YouTube videos, you need to enable monetization in your YouTube channel. First, go to youtube.com. Then, sign in to your YouTube account and click on your Profile icon on the top right corner. A drop-down list will appear where you will find a button called "Your Channel". Clicking on this button, you can see the total number of subscribers of your channel. If your channel has got at least 1000 subscribers, then you have passed the first requirement of YouTube monetization.
How to Check the Total Watch Time
To check the total number of "watch hours" you need to navigate to the analytics section of your YouTube channel. Inside your channel page, you will find the button “Creator Studio”. Now if you click on this button, the system will take you to the content list of your channel. On the left sidebar, you will find the “Analytics” button.
