All about poodle and dalmatian breed mix
If you are thinking about getting a dalmatian dog, there are some things you need to know about this mix. Dalmadoodles are highly intelligent and love to work with their owners. They also have high energy levels and are great runners, so they’re perfect for long walks or running. This breed also has a high level of loyalty and protectiveness. They’re a loyal and intelligent dog that loves people and will be very loyal and protective.
Dalmadoodles are loyal
The Dalmadoodle is a hybrid dog that combines the attributes of poodles and dalmatians. Although the dog is usually medium-sized, it can be smaller or larger depending on the breed mix. These dogs are generally very loyal and friendly, but they can be stubborn and can ignore commands. Male Dalmadoodles may become obsessive, while females are less likely to suffer from separation anxiety. While Dalmadoodles are intelligent and loyal, raising one can be a challenge.
The Dalmadoodle is a demanding pet and may require some time off to play. As a high-energy pet, Dalmadoodles need plenty of kibble and exercise. You should plan on purchasing a bag of Dalmadoodle food every few weeks. Make sure to buy high-quality food without corn or wheat and that it contains plenty of protein, fruits, and vegetables.
They are affectionate
The Poodle and Dalmatian breed mix is known for its intelligence and affectionate nature. Poodles love to play and learn tricks. They are excellent entertainers and do well in a family environment. Despite their hunting heritage, they enjoy the company of other dogs and are affectionate and obedient in all situations. In the 1800s, a crossbreed was created from the poodle and the Dalmatian. The result is a highly intelligent and friendly dog.
Poodle and Dalmatian breed mixes are highly intelligent and affectionate. They need routine training and require the patience of their owners. Poodles come in various sizes, with the standard weighing between four and 70 pounds. Dalmadoodles are medium to large-sized dogs, ranging from fifteen to nineteen inches tall. They weigh forty to seventy pounds. Poodles are also affectionate with children.
They are intelligent
Poodle and Dalmatian breed mixes are among the smartest dogs on the planet. While the Poodle has a high IQ, Dalmatians have a stubborn streak and can be difficult to train. These dogs are loyal and people-focused and tend to be stubborn. They also have a tendency to bark, although this is usually mild. They also have a wide range of grooming needs.
The first dogs recognized as poodles were used as carriage dogs, and their agility, endurance, and affinity for horses made them a great choice for the job. They also have high levels of adaptive intelligence, which is the ability to learn new tasks and solve problems. They were the best at what they did. These qualities make them intelligent and suited for households with children. They are very popular in the U.S. and are among the top 100 most popular dog breeds.
They require a lot of attention
This breed mix will require lots of attention and exercise. Poodles are generally calm and gentle, while Dalmatians are lively and energetic. Despite their gentle natures, Dalmatians require a lot of exercise to remain healthy. These dogs shed their coats regularly, so you should prepare your home for the shedding process. Dalmatians also require a lot of socialization, so you should be prepared for a lot of training sessions.
This breed mix requires a great deal of attention, as it is a high-shedding and allergy-producing dog. It needs to be groomed frequently, including their nails and ears. You should also consider obedience training as they are very intelligent and need a lot of interaction with humans. However, it is still important to consider the personality and health of your Dalmadoodle before making a decision.
They are hypoallergenic
Many people believe that a hypoallergenic poodle and dalmatan breed mix will be hypoallergenic. In reality, a hypoallergenic dog is not an entirely common occurrence. In fact, some breeds are hypoallergenic more often than others, but Dalmadoodles can be considered a hypoallergenic choice. They are hypoallergenic due to the fact that the Poodle genes are more prevalent in the mix, creating a curly coat that traps dead hair and dander.
A hypoallergenic poodle and dalmatan breed mix is a hybrid that combines the adorableness of both parent breeds. They are a great choice for families with children, as their hair doesn’t shed. A Cockapoo has the temperament and body agility of both poodles and dalmatians, and is very intelligent. They also tend to be extremely affectionate, so you’ll never feel lonely with this dog. They are very playful, and their hair is non-shedding, making them perfect for allergy sufferers.
They are athletic
The Poodle and Dalmatian breed mix is a fun and energetic dog. This mix was first used for hunting ducks, but today it is a favorite household pet. Both are known for their high intelligence and athleticism. The poodle is also known to be hypoallergenic and is a great companion for people who are allergic to dogs. There are several types of Poodles, including miniature, standard, and giant.
This dog breed has an athletic build and a curly coat. It has large ears and a tail. Its head is rounded, and its dark brown and fluffy eyes are characteristic of this breed. The Dalmatian Poodle breed mix has curly coat and spotting like a Dalmation. It is an active crossbreed, requiring at least two hours of exercise daily.

A Development of the brain
a Embryo with a greatest length (GL, see p. 4) of 10 mm, at the beginning of the 2nd month of development. Even at this stage we can see the differentiation of the neural tube into segments that will generate various brain regions (see C):
• Medulla oblongata (gray)
• Pons (gray)
• Cerebellum (light blue)
• Midbrain (mesencephalon, dark blue)
• Interbrain (diencephalon, yellow)
• Forebrain (telencephalon, red)
b Embryo with a GL of 27 mm, near the end of the 2nd month of development (end of the embryonic period). The olfactory bulb is developing from the telencephalon, part of the pituitary anlage (neurohypophysis) from the diencephalon.
c Fetus with a GL of 53 mm, in approximately the 3rd month of development. By this time the telencephalon has begun to overgrow the other brain areas. The insula is still on the surface but will subsequently be covered by the cerebral hemispheres (compare with d).
d Fetus with a crown–rump length (CRL, see p. 4) of 27 cm (270 mm), in approximately the 7th month of development. The brain has begun to develop conspicuous gyri and sulci.
Note: The telencephalon grows over all the other brain structures as development proceeds.
B Brain vesicles and their derivatives
The cranial end of the neural tube expands to form three primary brain vesicles: the forebrain (prosencephalon), the midbrain (mesencephalon), and the hindbrain (rhombencephalon). The forebrain (telencephalon) and interbrain (diencephalon) develop from the prosencephalon. The mesencephalon gives rise to the superior and inferior colliculi and related structures. The rhombencephalon differentiates into the pons, cerebellum, and medulla oblongata. The pons and cerebellum are also known collectively as the metencephalon. Some important structures of the adult brain are listed at far right to illustrate the derivatives of the brain vesicles. They can be traced back in the diagram to their developmental precursors.
C Development of the nervous system: cross section through the neural tube, neural crest, and dorsal ectoderm
During development, the neural groove folds away from the overlying dorsal ectoderm and closes to form the neural tube. Cells migrate from the lateral portions of the neural groove to form the neural crest on each side. The central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) develops from the neural tube, while the peripheral nervous system develops from derivatives of the neural crest (see p. 76).
D Differentiation of the neural tube in the spinal cord region during development
Cross section, cranial view.
a Early neural tube, b intermediate stage, c adult spinal cord.
The neurons that form in the basal plate are efferent (motor) neurons, while those that form in the alar plate are afferent (sensory) neurons.
The area between them—the future thoracic, lumbar, and sacral cord—is another zone that gives rise to preganglionic autonomic neurons. The roof plate and floor plate do not form neurons. A knowledge of how these neuron populations are distributed is helpful in understanding the structure of the hindbrain (rhombencephalon, see E).
E Embryonic migratory movements of neuron populations and their effect on the location of the cranial nerve nuclei
Cross section, cranial view. (Visual aid: If we compare the spinal cord to a book, it would be closed in a and open in b and c.)
a In the initial stage, the motor neurons are ventral (anterior), and the sensory neurons are dorsal (posterior). The arrows indicate the directions of migration.
b In the early embryonic stage, the neurons of the alar plate migrate laterally and ventrally (anteriorly).
c In the adult brain (medulla oblongata and pons, derivatives of the rhombencephalon), we can distinguish four nuclear columns (after His and Herrick) that contain functionally distinct cranial nerve nuclei (from medial to lateral):
1. Somatomotor column (lilac)
2. Visceromotor column (orange and green stripes)
3. Viscerosensory column (light blue)
4. Somatosensory column (dark blue)
A Development of the neural crest cells
At 3 weeks’ development, the notochord induces surface ectoderm in the medial embryonic disc to thicken and form the neural plate (neuroectoderm). The neural plate differentiates to form the primordia of the nervous system. Neural folds are raised on each side of the neural plate, and a median groove develops between them—the neural groove. This groove subsequently deepens and closes to form the neural tube, which sinks below the ectoderm. Portions of the folds that do not contribute to neural tube formation differentiate to form the neural crest. While neural crest cells in the future head region start to migrate even before the neural tube is closed, crest migration in the trunk is delayed until tube closure. Cells destined to form the neural crest detach from the ectoderm at the fusing margins of the neural tube and undergo an epithelio-mesenchymal transition, diving into underlying mesoderm, where they begin a long and tortuous migration. As the neural tube differentiates into the central nervous system, migrating neural crest cells settle in different locations and develop into sensory and autonomic ganglia, endocrine glands, melanocytes, cartilage, and other structures (see B and C) (after Wolpert).
B Main migratory pathways and derivatives of the neural crest (after Christ and Wachtler)
Neural crest cells originated in different regions have different migration paths and fates. Those from cranial levels contribute to cartilage and bone in the head and neck, and to cranial parasympathetic ganglia (see C). Those from thoracolumbar levels do not become skeletal cells, but generate peripheral neurons, endocrine cells, melanocytes, and Schwann cells. This diagram shows the migration of the neural crest cells in the trunk of the early embryo (4 weeks’ development, see p. 7). They follow three main migratory pathways:
① Dorsolateral pathway (melanoblasts, which differentiate into melanocytes)
② Ventrolateral pathway (ganglioblasts, which differentiate into sensory nerve cells in the dorsal (posterior) root [spinal] ganglia)
③ Ventral pathway (cells differentiate into neurons and associated cells of the paravertebral sympathetic ganglia, into chromaffin cells of the adrenal medulla, and into autonomic plexuses in the gastrointestinal tract)
Thus, the neural crest can develop into a variety of seemingly unrelated nonneuronal cells as well as peripheral ganglion cells. These unusual characteristics of the neural crest—its pluripotential capacity and wide-ranging migration—have consequences when its differentiation or migration is defective. Disruption of neural crest development may deprive organs of their autonomic innervation (Hirschsprung disease). Tumors derived from neural crest cells tend to be highly malignant and difficult to treat. (See D.)
C Neural crest derivatives in the head and neck region
Besides the equivalents of the structures named in B (e.g., melanocytes), other structures in the head and neck region that originate from the cranial neural crest are skeletal and cartilaginous muscles and muscles of facial expression.
a Cranial neural crest derivatives in the adult skeleton: facial bones, hyoid bone, portions of the thyroid cartilage.
b Most of the facial skin is derived from the neural crest.
D Diseases of neural crest derivatives (selected examples)
Parasympathetic visceral ganglia
(malignant childhood tumor)
Enteric nervous system
Glial cells (Schwann cells, satellite cells)
Malignant melanoma, albinism
Pheochromocytoma (adrenal gland tumor)
Endocrine cells of the lung and heart
Carcinoids (malignant tumors with endocrine activity)
Parafollicular cells (C cells) of the thyroid gland
Medullary thyroid carcinoma
E Development of a peripheral nerve
Afferent (blue) and efferent (red) axons sprout separately from the neuron cell bodies during early development (a). Primary afferent (sensory) neurons develop in the dorsal (posterior) root (spinal) ganglia, and primary motor neurons develop from the basal plate of the spinal cord (b). Interneurons (black), which connect sensory ganglia and motor neurons, develop later.
F Structure of a peripheral nerve
A peripheral nerve consists entirely of axons (also called neurites) and sheath tissue (Schwann cells, fibroblasts, blood vessels). The axons transmit information either from the periphery to the CNS (afferents) or in the opposite direction from the CNS to the periphery (efferents). Axons may be myelinated or unmyelinated. The latter have a much slower conduction velocity and are usually fibers of the autonomic nervous system (see p. 97). Among the investing layers of the nerve, the perineurium ensheaths the nerve fascicles and provides an important tissue barrier (see p. 95).
A Topography of the nervous system
a Posterior view, b right lateral view.
The central nervous system (CNS), consisting of the brain (encephalon) and spinal cord, is shown in pink. The peripheral nervous system (PNS), consisting of nerves and ganglia, is shown in yellow. The nerves arising from the spinal cord leave their bony canal through the intervertebral foramina and are distributed to their target organs. The spinal nerves are formed in the foramina by the union of their dorsal (posterior) roots and ventral (anterior) roots (see p. 83). The small spinal ganglion in the intervertebral foramen appears as a slight swelling of the dorsal root (visible only in the posterior view; its function is described on p. 83).
In the limbs, the ventral rami of the spinal nerves come together to form plexuses. These plexuses then give rise to the peripheral nerves that supply the limbs.
B Spinal nerves and cranial nerves
Anterior view. Thirty-one pairs of spinal nerves arise from the spinal cord in the peripheral nervous system, compared to 12 pairs of cranial nerves that arise from the brain. The cranial nerve pairs are traditionally designated by roman numerals.
Note: The first two cranial nerves, the olfactory (II) and optic (I) nerves, are not peripheral nerves in the strict sense, but outpouchings from the brain, which means they are pathways of the central nervous system. They are enclosed within the meninges and contain cells that are exclusively found in the central nervous system, oligondendrocytes and microglial cells.
C Terms of location and direction in the CNS
Midsagittal section, right lateral view.
Note two important axes:
① The almost vertical brainstem axis (corresponds approximately to the body axis).
② The horizontal axis through the diencephalon and telencephalon. Keep these reference axes in mind when using directional terms in the CNS.
D Schematic representation of information flow in the nervous system
The information encoded in nerve fibers is transmitted either to the CNS (brain and spinal cord) or from the CNS to the periphery (PNS, including the peripheral parts of the autonomic nervous system, see p. 96). Fibers that carry information to the CNS are called afferent fibers or afferents for short; fibers that carry signals away from the CNS are called efferent fibers or efferents.
A The nerve cell (neuron)
The neuron is the smallest functional unit of the nervous system. Neurons communicate with other nerve cells through synapses. The synapses that end at nerve cells usually do so at dendrites (as seen here). The transmitter substance that is released at the synapses to act on the dendrite membrane may have an excitatory or inhibitory action, meaning that the transmitter either increases or decreases the local action potential at the nerve cell membrane. All of the excitatory and inhibitory potentials of a nerve cell are integrated in the axon hillock. If the excitatory potentials predominate, the stimulus exceeds the excitation threshold of the neuron, causing the axon to fire (transmit an impulse) according to the all-or-nothing rule.
B Electron microscopy of the neuron
Neurons are rich in rough endoplasmic reticulum (protein synthesis, active metabolism). This endoplasmic reticulum (known also as Nissl substance) is easily demonstrated by light microscopy using cationic dyes, which bind to the phosphodiester backbone of the ribosomal RNAs. The distribution pattern of the Nissl substance is used in neuropathology to evaluate the functional integrity of neurons. Neurotubules and neurofilaments are referred to collectively as neurofibrils in light microscopy, as they are too fine to be identified as separate structures under a light microscope. Neurofibrils can be demonstrated in light microscopy by impregnating the nerve tissue with silver salts. This is of interest in neuropathology because the clumping of neurofibrils is an important histologic feature of Alzheimer disease.
C Basic forms of the neuron and its functionally adapted variants
The horizontal line marks the region of the axon hillock, which represents the initial segment of the axon. (The structure of a peripheral nerve, consisting only of axons and sheath tissue, is shown on p. 77.)
a Multipolar neuron (multiple dendrites) with a long axon (= long transmission path). Examples are projection neurons such as α-motoneurons in the spinal cord.
b Multipolar neuron with a short axon (= short transmission path). Examples are interneurons like those in the gray matter of the brain and spinal cord.
c Pyramidal cell: Dendrites are present only at the apex and base of the tridentate cell body, and the axon is long. Examples are efferent neurons of the cerebral motor cortex.
d Purkinje cell: An elaborately branched dendritic tree arises from a circumscribed site on the cell body. The Purkinje cell receives many synaptic contacts from afferents to the cerebellum and is also the efferent cell of the cerebellar cortex.
e Bipolar neuron: The dendrite branches in the periphery. Examples are bipolar cells of the retina.
f Pseudounipolar neuron: The dendrite and axon are not separated by a cell body. An example is the primary afferent (= first sensory) neuron in the spinal ganglion (see p. 91).
D Synaptic patterns in a small group of neurons
Axons can terminate at various sites on the target neuron and form synapses there. The synaptic patterns are described as axodendritic, axosomatic, or axoaxonal. Axodendritic synapses are the most common (see also A).
E Electron microscopy of synapses in the CNS
Synapses are the functional connection between two neurons. They consist of a presynaptic membrane, a synaptic cleft, and a postsynaptic membrane. In a spine synapse (1), the presynaptic knob (bouton) is in contact with a specialized protuberance (spine) of the target neuron. The side-by-side synapse of an axon with the flat surface of a target neuron is called a parallel contact or bouton en passage (2). The vesicles in the presynaptic expansion contain the neurotransmitters that are released into the synaptic cleft by exocytosis when the axon fires. From there the neurotransmitters diffuse to the postsynaptic membrane, where their receptors are located. A variety of drugs and toxins act upon synaptic transmission (antidepressants, muscle relaxants, toxic gases, botulinum toxin).
F Cells of the neuroglia in the CNS
Neuroglial cells surround the neurons, providing them with structural and functional support (see G). Various staining methods are available in light microscopy for selectively demonstrating different portions of the neuroglial cells:
a Cell nuclei demonstrated with a basic stain.
b Cell body demonstrated by silver impregnation.

A Structure of a spinal cord segment with its spinal nerve
Superior view. The spinal cord is made up of 31 consecutive segments arranged one above the other (see B). An anterior root and a posterior root emerge from the sides of each segment. The anterior root consists of efferent (motor) fibers, while the posterior root consists of afferent (sensory) fibers. Both roots from one segment unite in the intervertebral foramen to form the spinal nerve. The afferent (sensory) fibers and efferent (motor) fibers intermingle at this junction, so that the branches into which the spinal nerve divides (see below) contain motor and sensory elements (except for the meningeal branch, which is purely sensory). This division into branches (rami) occurs shortly after the anterior and posterior roots unite to form the spinal nerve. Consequently, the spinal nerve itself is only about 1 cm long.
The principal branches of the spinal nerve have the following functions:
• The anterior ramus innervates the anterior and lateral body wall and the limbs.
• The posterior ramus innervates the skin of the back and the intrinsic back muscles.
• The meningeal branch reenters the spinal canal, providing sensory innervation to the spinal membranes and other structures.
• The white ramus communicans carries white (= myelinated) fibers to the ganglion of the sympathetic trunk.
• The gray ramus communicans carries gray (= unmyelinated) fibers from the sympathetic ganglion back to the spinal nerve (the functional significance of this is described on p. 97). The anterior and posterior rami of the spinal nerves subdivide into further branches.

Scouting the DuKane
BataviaCoach: Kevin Jensen
Last season's record: 5-11
Top returners: Brooke Carlson, so. (G, 5-6).; Tessa Towers, sr. (F, 6-5).; Claire Nazos, sr. (G, 5-5)
Top newcomers: Addison Prewitt, fr. (G, 5-8).; Hallie Crane, fr. (F, 5-9)
Worth noting: Batavia certainly has one of the more potent 1-2 punches teams will see this year with Carlson and Towers returning. Carlson, already one of the top players in the conference as a sophomore should only get better after her 14.5 point and nearly four assists per game output last year. Towers, a Wisconsin recruit, has long been a double-double machine and averaged 17.1 and 12.3 rebounds per game last season. Nazos, a Dubuque recruit, is a steady shooter from the outside and a multiyear starter. Don't overlook Nicole McLaughlin, an honorable mention all-conference selection last year. "There is a great mix of experienced seniors and talented youth. Batavia will get varsity contributions from all four classes this season. Tessa Towers leads that way and continues to get better and better. Brooke Carlson is as dynamic as they come with the ball in her hands," Jensen said.
GenevaCoach: Sarah Meadows
Last season's record: 8-4
Top returners: Cassidy Arni, jr. (F, 5-11); Leah Palmer, so. (G/F, 5-11); Zosia Wrobel, sr. (F, 6-0)
Top newcomers: Caroline Madden, so. (G, 5-6); Rilee Hasegawa, jr. (G, 5-2)
Worth noting: The Vikings' backcourt will certainly look different without Kate Palmer running the point anymore, but they return Arni and Wrobel in the frontcourt who are both solid shooters and all-around players. Leah Palmer should build upon a steady freshman season. With that nucleus, the Vikings appear to be in good shape heading into the season but it'll be interesting to see how the rest of the rotation develops as the weeks come. "[I'm] really excited to worked with this group for girls," Meadows said. "They are working hard and they will be fun to watch. We are so ready for a full and somewhat normal basketball season. Our conference and schedule is really tough. There will be some great girls basketball played this winter."
Glenbard NorthCoach: Stephen Wit
Top returners: Kayla Rushford, sr. (G); Chloe D'Alexander, jr. (F); Bella Eggert, sr. (G)
Top newcomers: Jasmine Jackson, sr. (F); Mikaela Quinn, so. (G).; Autumn Rohde, jr. (G)
Worth noting: Glenbard North graduated five seniors from last season, which represented a lion's share of its scoring. Rushford is the only returning player who played in every game last year, so she'll be a key piece all season to bring along the next wave. Eggert and Jackson are two who will be pushed to take on larger roles on both ends of the floor. D'Alexander and Rohde should add some grit and toughness. "This a tight-knit group that is fun to coach. They are looking forward to the challenges ahead, especially our tough DuKane Conference schedule," Witt said.
Lake ParkCoach: Brian Rupp
Top returners: Sara Balli, sr. (G, 5-9).; Gabi Burgess, jr. (G, 5-6); Ellie Helm, jr. (G, 5-11)
Top newcomers: Grace Cord, jr. (F, 5-11); Michela Barbanente, jr. (F, 5-10); Danielle Schlink, sr. (F, 6-0)
Worth noting: The Lancers are an intriguing team and figure to be improved from an uncharacteristic down season the year before. Lake Park returns three high-caliber starters in Balli, Burgess and Helm, who Rupp says are all improved. Cord is expected to take on a starting role and will add some scoring inside and outside. Schlink will bring length and some pop from the outside as well. The bench offers some athleticism and could be a strong defensive unit. "We have an athletic bench that could cause some problems defensively for other teams," Rupp said.
St. Charles EastCoach: Michael Murphy
Last season's record: 7-9
Top returners: Torrie Kortan, sr. (G, 5-9); Emma Yakey, sr. (G/F, 5-8); Lexi DiOrio, so. (G, 5-8)
Top newcomers: Olivia Kiefer, sr. (F, 5-8); Hannah Masud, jr. (G, 5-6)
About the Saints: St. Charles East should be poised for a solid season, as it returns four starters from last season's team: Yakey, Kortan, DiOrio and Alexis Maradis. Kortan is expected to be a top scorer. Though technically not a true newcomer, the Saints are looking forward to welcoming back Kiefer, a starter from the 2019 season, who is returning after a year away from the program. Cali Papez, who grabbed four rebounds per game last year, is expected to slide into a starting role after a prominent bench role from last season. "[Kortan] is on pace to be a 1,000-point career scorer and has a chance to become school's all-time leading scorer," Murphy said. " ...[Papez] will move from the sixth-man role to a starting position and is another coveted [Division III] prospect."
St. Charles NorthCoach: Mike Tomczak
Last season's record: 12-3
Top returners: Reagan Sipla, so. (F, 6-1).; Alyssa Hughes, jr. (G, 5-7).; Erin Stack, sr. (F, 6-3)
Top newcomers: Katrina Stack, so. (F, 6-1).; Addy Uhmlauf, fr. (G/F, 5-7); Hannah Ganser, fr. (G/F, 5-7)
Worth noting: The North Stars are returning a boatload of talent and should figure into the conference title mix and beyond at season's end. They return a number of multiyear starters in Hughes, Morgan Klug and Stack, while Sipla should build upon an extremely promising freshman campaign. Hughes is a phenomenal shooter from anywhere on the court and will be a matchup problem for any team, as is Sipla. Eva Saltsman will bring good energy and rebounding. Keep an eye on Stack, who should push for serious playing time out of the gate. "We've been [a good shooting team] the last several years ... we've been able to help develop some really good shooters over the years," Tomczak said. "We're very fortunate, in my opinion, to -- at almost any given time -- have five players on the floor who can shoot the three. There's an adage about living and dying by the three, but we hope to have enough versatility this year, so when that shot is not falling or when teams try to take that shot away, we've got some things we can do to finish inside."
Wheaton NorthCoach: Dave Eaton
Last season's record: 13-3
Top returners: Claire Hyde, sr. (G, 5-5).; Caroline Gaither, sr. (G, 5-7); Lindsey Shanahan, sr. (G, 5-6)
Top newcomers: Sara Abdul, fr. (G, 5-7); Zoey Bohmer, so. (F, 5-11); Eden Pearson, jr. (G, 5-8)
Worth noting: The Falcons graduated a group of seniors that went 72-26 over their four-year careers. Wheaton North will look to content behind returning four-year year varsity starters Hyde and Gaither. Hyde and Gaither have been top players in the DuKane Conference throughout their career and it's expected they'll help usher in the newest era of Falcons. Hyde, last seasons's DuKane Conference Player of the Year, is a four-year varsity starter who averaged 20.1 points as a junior and made 54 3-pointers at a 38.5% rate. "We have some young talent that will continue to improve as the season progresses. Freshman Sara Abdul and sophomore Zoey Bohmer will look to be key contributors to the Falcons," Eaton said.
Wheaton Warrenville SouthCoach: Rob Kroehnke
Last season's record: 9-8
Top returners: Lily Huntzinger, sr. (G, 5-9).; Hannah Struebing, so. (F, 5-10)
Top newcomers: Ellie Farrell, sr. (F, 5-7); Megan Economos, sr. (F, 5-7)
Worth noting: WW South will be looking to build upon a steady season, a team headlined by DePauw recruit Huntzinger. Struebing, Campbell Bastian, Farrell and Economos will also be key contributors for a team looking to make a splash in conference play. "[We have] good experience returning, and promising newcomers. [We are also] looking forward to a full schedule," Kroehnke said.

Battesimo offers a wide range of baptism blankets for girls In the old days, a completely new baptism blankets for girls, white or light Ivory piece of cloth, was used for this moment, which was never washed or used for domestic purposes. Now manufacturers of baptismal clothes for children offer a wide selection of baptismal towel for girl, which can be sold either separately or as part of baptismal sets for boys and young girls.
The Battesimo trademark of designer clothes for children aged 0 to 8 years, Battesimo, in addition to collections of elegant and everyday wardrobe items for boys and girls, offers everything necessary for the Ceremony Day of Baptism: for a girl, this is a baptismal dress complete with a headdress – a bonnet or beret, as well as a mandatory attribute — a christening blanket girl.
One cannot do without a baptism blanket when a baby of any gender is baptized: bathing in the font is one of the most important moments of the ceremony and symbolizes the moral and physical pure of the soul and body. After the water procedure, the baby is taken by adults in a blanket.
The baptism blankets are equipped with a lace hood — a beautiful decorative element will indicate the location of the baby’s head, for girls a small addition in the form of a symbolic bow with rhinestones will be appropriate. In the cold season or in a cool room, knitted blankets for baptism may be preferable to cotton blankets. Like the baptismal hoods, the baptism rugs absorb moisture and warm the baby, because the extremely soft texture gives only comfortable sensations.

Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner recently confirmed their divorce via Instagram, shortly after the former was spotted without his wedding ring. “Statement from the two of us: After four wonderful years of marriage we have mutually decided to amicably end our marriage,” they wrote.
“There are many speculative narratives as to why,” the statement continued, “but truly this is a united decision and we sincerely hope that everyone can respect our wishes for privacy for us and our children.” There’s this narrative that the Game of Thrones star was a “bad mom” who left Jonas to raise his kids alone.
Fans immediately came to Turner’s defense, with Rolling Stone saying it’s “misogynistic” to believe the claims. Some internet sleuths also compiled headlines of the Camp Rock alum previously blaming other women like Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato, and Ashley Greene for his actions. Here’s a closer look at this whole divorce drama.
Why Is Sophie Turner Labeled A Bad Mom Amid Divorce From Joe Jonas?
TMZ‘s sources were the first to kick off the “bad mom” rumors about Turner. Multiple insiders claimed that Jonas saw something in a ring cam that “made him realize the marriage was over.” That same day, the Daily Mail exclusively reported that the X-Men actress partied “without a care in the world” just days before they announced their divorce.
“She was great company and a really good laugh. I couldn’t believe how happy and relaxed she was. You would never have thought that she was going through a divorce,” the bar manager said of Turner’s leaked photos at the DropShot bar in Digbeth, Birmingham where she was filming her upcoming ITV series, Joan.
The barkeep added that he was surprised when the 27-year-old mom of two confirmed her divorce a few days later. “She never once spoke about her husband or kids and never mentioned anything about getting divorced,” he said, noting that it seemed like Turner “was missing” her single days.
“So, when the news came out a few days later, I was very shocked, but it also made sense because it was obvious when I was with Sophie that she wanted to return to her days of partying,” he continued. “I sensed that she was missing those times.” At that time, Jonas was coincidentally photographed having lunch with his kids, peddling the “bad mom” story even more.
What Did Joe Jonas Say About The Bad Mom Claims Against Sophie Turner?
Jonas’ side of the “bad mom” narrative got even stronger when some fans dug up an interview of Turner calling herself a “homebody” who couldn’t keep her “social butterfly” husband at home with her amid viral photos of her partying in Birmingham. However, TMZ later clarified that the Another Me star was indeed struggling after the birth of their second child and that Jonas was “less than supportive.”
“Our sources say, after their youngest child was born a year ago July,” wrote the outlet. “Sophie didn’t want to leave their home … she didn’t want to be photographed or go to events. Nevertheless, she attended several events with Joe, but at one specific event, several people who were there said Sophie made it clear she was uncomfortable and didn’t want to be there.”
Apparently, that incident started to put a “strain in the relationship.” TMZ added: “Shortly after that event, there was another in which Joe attended but Sophie didn’t. Our sources say Joe complained Sophie was MIA and felt she needed to get out more. It was clear to the people who were there and heard Joe …”
Days later during the Jonas Brothers’ concert in L.A., the lead singer addressed the issue onstage. “I just wanna say, look: If you don’t hear it from these lips, don’t believe it,” he said to the audience. “Okay? Thank you, everyone, for your love and support. Me and my family love you guys.”
Inside Joe Jonas’ History Of Blaming Women
In the Pop Culture Chat Reddit sub, a fan compiled the headlines above of “Joe Jonas blaming women for his own behavior,” per the post’s title. It includes the time he said it was Cyrus and his Camp Rock co-star-turned-girlfriend, Lovato who got him “to try pot,” as well as the time he vilified Ashley Greene after he non-consensually revealed to the public that he lost her virginity to her.
Fans were quick to recognize a “pattern” in Jonas’ behavior. “I smell a pattern and I think Joe Jonas may have awakened the hounds who will dig through his past and bring up every time he blamed a woman for his mistakes,” wrote a commenter. “Especially since all the women were much younger than him too.”
Another one said that it doesn’t make him the good dad he’s trying to portray in contrast to his “bad mom” wife. “Idk much about him honestly but if he’s not capable of making his own decisions he shouldn’t have custody of his kids. Yup I said it,” suggested the Reddit user.

The slow decline of a footballer is something that can make a lot of football fans feel extremely old. For many, the fact Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo no longer play in Europe and rule the Champions League is hard to comprehend.
Being a couple of years older, Ronaldo is the one hitting more milestones associated with the slow decline of a career in football. The lack of a nomination for the 2023 Ballon d’Or – the first time he has been omitted since 2003 – was one, but now he has reached another.
Not all supporters place value in video game ratings but EA Sports FC 24‘s raft of scores for footballers worldwide have revealed plenty about how certain players are viewed in the modern game.
The new figures certainly don’t make for great reading if you’re a Ronaldo fan.
For context, there are many players who would dream of having Ronaldo‘s rating in EA Sports FC 24. Those on Career Mode and Ultimate Team could still do much worse than having Ronaldo’s rating, which has dropped to 86 in the new game.
That is a four-point downgrade from the previous iteration of the game, FIFA 23.
Just like with the Ballon d’Or, it seems there are plenty of consequences from the move to Al Nassr in the Saudi Pro League. Ronaldo has still been scoring frequently since his Manchester United exit and subsequent move to the Middle East at the start of 2023, so it seems his rating has dropped largely down to the league he is scoring goals in.
That being said, Karim Benzema and Neymar are in the same league and have ratings of 90 and 89 respectively, so something about Ronaldo’s play has led the game creators to chip away at his rating more severely.
This is the lowest rating Ronaldo has had in EA’s football game since the 2007 edition, a whopping 16 years ago.
In that game, the likes of Wayne Rooney, Gianluigi Buffon and Ronaldinho were the highest-ranked players, but Ronaldo was still on the up at Manchester United. He was given an overall score of 87 in that game.
The Portuguese forward had always sat above 87 since 2007, but now he has dipped under to 86.
In terms of other Saudi Pro League stars, Riyad Mahrez matches Ronaldo with a rating of 86, as do N’Golo Kante, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and Sadio Mane.

Awesome, thanks! I actually just deactivated Backup Buddy…that seemed to fix the issue. Don’t know if it was a Backup Buddy issue or not, but I’m thinking it was just a disk space issue. Time to clean out some old plugins!
Perfect, that did the trick. Thanks Robin!

I think you are right. It is showing as a default wp template.
I wish BBpress had a shortcode to add to a page for the search results. Seems logical since they have other shortcodes that it would be a no brainer for them to create one.
Or even function code to put in my child theme functions file. I am not a developer so nothing I can do.
Seen other people commenting about the search results page. Don’t think BBpress cares though!
Appreciate your looking at this for me wpturk.
You are a super hero!
Oh my, you are a life saver! Was able to delete 18,000 users. Thank you so much!
I have one other problem that is related to the forum global search feature. I can submit another ticket if you prefer but here is the issue.
The search results page has our logo and a long list of our menu items stacked before you can see the search results. Here is a search I did: StandUpGirl Search Results
This site is a Divi template and I use the divi theme builder to create global header and a mega menu for the items that are showing in the purple background.
Any ideas for me to fix this?
Appreciate all you are doing for me.
Thank you so much!
Will this also find any user who did not create a topic or a reply in bbpress?

Eddie Odio, the booming 6-foot-7 play-making machine for the BC basketball team, caught up with Sports Editor Teddy Kolva to discuss some off-season endeavors, his uncanny ability to throw down and the Boston Red Sox.
What initially drew you to Boston College?
When I was little, I always liked the Red Sox, and for some reason I always wanted to move to Boston. The coaching staff moved from Cornell and they are all great. All of these things really grabbed my attention, Coach Donahue really sold me on his coaching philosophy.
About the Sox: How do you think they will fare this year?
Well, Jackie Bradley Jr. hit—what was it—over .400 in Spring Training? I am a big fan of him. I think they are young but should be pretty good down the stretch.
Let’s go back to your monstrous dunk against Duke—that really electrified the crowd and got people in the stands going. Could you draw on how much you value play making and how important it is to you to get that big dunk or block?
That’s an important part of my game, I try to bring that extra spark and energy to the team—if that gets the fans excited—it’s definitely a plus and something that we all feed off of as a team. There’s nothing better than that.
Speaking of dunks, where did your hops come from?
Well, I wasn’t very athletic when I was little. But then in high school I started playing volleyball sophomore and junior year, which really helped get my jumping up. There’s so much jumping in that sport it just came naturally. It kind of translated onto the basketball court later.
What’s your personal outlook for next season?
On a personal level, I feel like I could improve a lot this off-season. I made a big jump from last year, but I know I need to get stronger and be more of a force in the paint. I need to keep doing what I have been doing, too.
On a more team basis, have you talked about goals for next season?
Yeah, definitely. We hope to compete for an ACC and be in the top part of the ACC. Our ultimate goal is definitely to be making a run in the NCAA tournament, which would be good considering it has been a while. We know we are capable of making it happen.
Coach Donahue underwent some pressure in the beginning of the season after losing a string of bad games. Did you ever sense that that knocked him off guard, or did he always maintain a steady, confident mentality?
Coach is absolutely a steady, confident guy. He knew we were a young team. Maybe he did not expect a slow start, but he knew there would be some troubles in the beginning. He also knew that later in the season we would be developed, though, and look what happened. He never lost his composure.
What is it like to have ACC Rookie of the Year Olivier Hanlan as your teammate?
Olivier is a great point guard and deserved ACC Rookie of the Year. He is a guy that just elevates every one else’s play. We can always rely on him to put up points and that is huge.
Brad Bates has a lot of plans for basketball next year. In the “State of the Heights” forum, he confirmed that student section seats would mirror Cameron Indoor. Can you reflect on how important that would be next year?
I think that would be a great help and bring so much energy to the stadium. How it is set up now, the students are kind of distant from the court and we don’t get to feel the emotion as much. So, that would be awesome. I know Coach D has been proposing that since he got here.
What are your thoughts on the phrase “moral victories?” Does it mean anything to you?
As a team, we don’t believe in “moral victories.” I mean, if you don’t win the game, you don’t win the game. We don’t want those “moral victories” next year. I know that against Duke, people thought it was a “moral victory” because it was only a one-point loss. But, truthfully, we knew we had that game and we knew we were the better team—we let it slip away. We don’t speak of the term.

Wilson Duff: Coming Back, A Life
Review By Ted Binnema
July 14, 2022
BC Studies no. 214 Summer 2022 | p. 130-131
Wilson Duff’s life had enough pathos and controversy to inspire two fictional operas, a novel, and considerable gossip. It is about time for a factual biography. This thoroughly researched and well-written book is a must for anyone interested in Duff, and in the history of anthropology, archaeology, museums, and totem pole preservation in the Pacific Northwest. Robin Fisher interviewed no fewer than sixty people and conducted extensive documentary research, including in the considerable papers of Duff himself, to offer the most detailed portrait that we can ever expect to obtain. It is a superb contribution.
Fisher’s early chapters trace Duff’s formative years from his birth in a working-class family in Vancouver in 1925, to the end of his role as a navigator in World War II bombers. Those years are important for understanding Duff (and would be interesting to anyone interested in children and youth of that generation), but they predate Duff’s interest in Anthropology. It was in 1948, when Harry Hawthorn recruited him that Duff turned to that discipline. When he graduated from UBC in 1949, Duff already anticipated his appointment as provincial anthropologist at the British Columbia Provincial Museum. Fisher explains the personal and intellectual influences that brought him there. After completing an MA in 1950, Duff worked at the museum for fifteen years before joining the faculty at UBC in 1965. Those years are the subject of three chapters that explore and explain Duff’s most controversial legacy.
Duff contributed to ethnology and archaeology, museum practice, totem pole preservation, and education (of the public and of university students). When most British Columbians were indifferent to Indigenous art, and when some journalists disparaged totem poles as hideous monstrosities, Duff negotiated the removal and preservation of the poles with the consent (and sometimes at the request) of Indigenous communities.
Having attended some of Fisher’s talks about Duff, I doubt that this book will end all controversy. It should, however, dispel myths that remorse over his role in the removal of totem poles drove Duff to suicide in 1976. By 1976, Duff thought the time for removing totem poles had passed, but he believed that it was right to do so when and how he did (with the support of the Indigenous people who owned the poles). Fisher also cogently defends the more important argument that Duff’s respectful efforts to preserve totem poles and other artifacts were instrumental in defending Indigenous claims, ensuring that Indigenous art flourished, and bridging the gulf of understanding between Indigenous and non-Indigenous British Columbians.
There is little doubt that, although shy and nervous, Duff profoundly influenced thousands of students who crowded into his UBC courses and the many who attended the Indigenous art exhibits he helped plan and promote. Fisher also explores that legacy. He also shows that Duff was early among academics to have his students ponder the ethics of removing artifacts from Indigenous communities.
Duff had tragic flaws. Convinced that his parents had rejected him, guilt-ridden over his inadequacies as husband and father, insecure about his standing as academic and educator, Duff succumbed slowly to his “own neurotic personality” (Duff’s words) (298). Depression, anxiety, and guilt, coupled with a belief in reincarnation, eventually led him to suicide. Fisher sensitively takes the reader through Duff’s tortured later days.
Much has been said and written about Wilson Duff, and Fisher’s is unlikely to be the last word. However, Robin Fisher has put the life and work of Wilson Duff in its historical context in a way that is unlikely ever to be surpassed.

Top 5 Qualities to Look for in a Roofer Service Provider
Roofers can help homeowners with roof repair, roof replacement, and other related services. They can also advise on the different roofing materials available and what warranties may be offered.
An excellent roofer will provide clients with a detailed, written estimate of expenses at the end of each consultation. This will help clients make informed decisions when choosing a contractor.
Reputation is the overall opinion that people have about you. It’s one of the most important things to consider when choosing a service provider because it gives you an idea of what to expect from them.
A positive reputation will attract more customers to your business, so it’s a must-have for any roofer. It allows you to include line item images in quotes so clients can quickly identify the issue and how you plan to solve it.
When looking for roofers, you want to ensure they have the right amount of experience. Look at how long they’ve been in business and see how many projects they have completed in the past. You can also ask them about their roofing processes and materials, so you know they’re using quality products that will last years. A good roofer will have high standards and always go above and beyond regarding their work. You can usually tell this by their reviews on Google, Facebook, and other review sites. Look for consistency in positive and negative reviews.
Roofers are responsible for installing, repairing, and replacing roofing materials. They are also responsible for inspecting and assessing the condition of existing roofs to determine the best course of action for a repair or replacement. Because of the nature of their work, they should have a strong sense of responsibility and always adhere to safety standards. Additionally, they should be capable of meeting deadlines and maintaining good working relationships with clients. Those interested in becoming Roofers can enroll in a four-year apprenticeship program to learn the skills and earn their journeyperson certificate. They can find programs in many provinces and territories. Some of the job duties include:
Roofers score high on extraversion and are often highly motivated by external stimuli, such as people and exciting surroundings. They are also conscientious individuals who plan and take pride in their work.
Insurance is an essential factor to consider when hiring a roofer service provider. You should check if the company has workers’ compensation and general liability insurance to protect yourself and your property in case an accident occurs. A roofing contractor should also have commercial auto insurance if they need to drive a work vehicle for a project. Furthermore, it is vital to ensure that the policy has continuous coverage, as gaps in insurance can leave you vulnerable to liabilities. In some states, workers’ compensation is mandatory for roofers and contractors.
Workers’ comp provides immediate financial coverage for medical expenses and lost wages if an employee gets injured.
Customer service has become a critical component of any business. Studies show that customers will leave a company after just one bad experience.
To provide exceptional customer service, your team members must be able to communicate with customers professionally. This includes writing emails and other non-voice communication channels. Ensure your employees have excellent grammar, spelling, and punctuation skills to quickly and accurately answer customer questions.
Another critical aspect of excellent customer service is empathy. This involves understanding the customer’s point of view and where they are coming from. This can help de-escalate a conflict and create a positive customer experience. In addition, it can be a great way to build trust. To practice this, listen carefully to your customers and ask clarifying questions.

Solar panels can bring benefits to your business today, tomorrow, and years from now. Find out how they can transform your small buisness!
Reduce Building Costs By Installing Solar Panels on Your Commercial Building
Want to reduce business expenses or attract more tenants to your building? Find out the cost, financing options, and benefits of commercial solar panels.
Want to cut costs while helping your business? Going solar could be the answer – but it’s not for everyone.
Rooftop solar can save your business money and even provide a little extra income, but it’s a long-term investment with high up-front costs. Find what questions you should ask to determine if your business will benefit from taking a leap toward renewables.
Does Your Commercial Building Use a Lot of Power?
Commercial buildings in Las Vegas can use a lot of power throughout the year, especially during the hot summers and short, sharp winters. Even buildings that are entirely empty (due to shelter-in-place restrictions) are still consuming large amounts of electricity, mainly thanks to HVAC units that need to run and electronic systems that are still plugged in. Electricity Local reports that the average monthly commercial and industrial electricity bills in Nevada are $440 and $19,800, respectively. As utility costs continue to increase with time, it’s wise to find ways to reduce power usage in your commercial building.
Benefits of Using Solar Panels for Commercial Buildings
Solar panels can reduce your energy costs by harvesting solar energy for your business or building throughout the lifetime of your solar panels, which can be twenty years or more. With a solar array, you can avoid spikes in demand and price for energy. The property will also be insulated from power outages or disruptions that can affect grid users. Solar power usage can entice new tenants to your building or raise the profile of your own business, by using the eco-friendly energy from your building as a selling point.
How Long Does it Take to Install Commercial Solar Panels?
Commercial solar projects can take weeks or months, depending on the total number of solar panels, the installation location of the solar panels, the type of building, and many other factors. The weather, the size and experience of the crew, and local regulations from the government and utilities are other significant factors that affect the timeline of a solar panel installation. Working with an experienced local solar company can speed this process along, as they’ll know how to navigate each step of this process.
While solar panel systems’ costs vary from state to state, Nevada has strong fundamentals that make solar panels a good option for many businesses. According to EnergySage, a leading solar shopping marketplace and information source that is supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, Nevada has one of the lowest solar panel installation costs in the country, with 2020 prices at $2.80 per watt and $2,800 per kW.
Solar panel installation costs depend on several factors, including the size and experience of the team working on your system, the time it takes to schedule inspections, and how long it takes to make the necessary arrangements with your local utility company, so they can accommodate your production. The average commercial solar installation costs range from $40,000 to half a million dollars. But of course there is a return on investment, with electric bills being significantly reduced.
Commercial Solar Panel Financing Options
If you’re looking for ways to finance a solar panel purchase, you’ll have several options:
- Federal Investment Tax Credit: The federal government offers businesses the opportunity to deduct 26% of the cost of their solar panel system from their taxes.
- Solar Loan: The company that sells you the solar panels will often provide you with financing for your purchase in the form of a solar loan. Private lenders also issue loans for solar panels. Solar loans are just like any other loan, so try to choose one with a low interest rate.
- Solar Lease: Instead of purchasing a solar system outright, you can instead lease it and purchase the energy they produce. This can still save your business money on utilities while helping you avoid the large capital investment solar panels require.
- Solar Power Purchase Agreement (PPA): Business owners also have the option to enter into a solar power purchase agreement (PPA), which allows them to pay only for the electricity the solar panels on their roof generate. They do not have to pay for the solar panels themselves.
How Installing Solar Panels on Your Commercial Building Will Reduce Costs
By understanding the solar-to-electric process, property owners are more likely to understand its benefits. In summary, the solar panels’ photovoltaic cells transform energy from sunlight into direct current electricity. This type of electricity is sent through an inverter, turning it into alternating current electricity, which is then sent to the building’s electrical panel to be used throughout the property. This eco-friendly process can help your business or building save money in the following ways:
- Reduced or potentially negative utility bills
- Increased property value due to solar panels
- Improved brand image thanks to renewable energy
Bell Solar and Electrical is one of the leading commercial solar panel installation companies in the Las Vegas area. We’ve been serving customers across the Las Vegas Valley since 2007 and are ranked among the top 10% of contractors in the State of Nevada. If you’re interested in installing rooftop solar panels on your commercial building, we’ll work closely with you to help you find the solution best suited to your needs. If you’re interested in solar options for your home, we can also schedule an estimate with you.

VERY exciting news!!
Variety has just revealed that The Power of the Dog will have its world premiere in competition at the 78th Venice International Film Festival which is scheduled to take place from 1 to 11 September with director Bong Joon-ho presiding over the main jury.
From their article:
Jane Campion, a Cannes legend who remains the only female director to have won the Palme d’Or with “The Piano,” will have her latest drama “The Power of the Dog” world premiere in competition at the Venice Film Festival.
A Netflix Original, “The Power of the Dog” stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Kirsten Dunst and Jesse Plemons. The movie’s screenplay was penned by Campion, based on the 1967 novel of the same name by Thomas Savage.
Set in the 1920s, the film is about a pair of wealthy Montana brothers, Phil (Cumberbatch) and George Burbank. Phil is brilliant and cruel, while George is fastidious and gentle. Together, they are joint owners of the biggest ranch in their Montana valley. When George secretly marries local widow Rose (Dunst), an angry Phil wages a relentless war to destroy her by using her son Peter as a pawn. Pic is produced by BBC Films, Campion’s Bright Star banner and See-Saw Films.
The Venice Film Festival declined to comment.
Campion is no stranger to Venice, where she premiered “An Angel at My Table,” which won the fest’s Grand Jury Prize in 1990, three years before her “Piano” Palm.
Variety understands that “The Power of the Dog” had been invited to world premiere out of competition at the Cannes Film Festival but Netflix opted instead to have it unspool at Venice, where the film can compete. As per a rule set by its administration board, the Cannes Film Festival can’t invite films in competition if they don’t have a local theatrical release planned.Source: Variety
According to the Biennale’s website, the line-up will be officially announced in the last week of July, so fingers crossed this will be confirmed!!

Due to this, she dares not begin to love one other particular person for the fear that she might deliver them in poor health-luck. Those who ask properly might get even low-cost rooms because of the (marginally) substandard high quality. It comes not only from the bed of President Andrew Jackson but also from his ghost. Individuals say they’ve heard it walking across the room. Jackson’s ghost is rumored to hold out within the Pink Room as effectively. Actor James Dean got into his Porsche 550 Spyder with his mechanic Rolf Wuetherich and set out for a race. Folks have seen Abraham Lincoln’s ghost strolling down the halls and staring out windows. Reports of unusual sightings and unexplained laughter emanating from the foyer have surfaced for years.
Nursing houses require the assessment and monitoring of residents by a registered nurse (RN), who is typically required to have between two and 6 years of education. Why do they wonder, don’t they merely apply for residency and get within the original method – similar to what so many of their ancestors did one hundred years in the past? Built in 1906 for Superintendent Captain Richard Deane of the Mounted Police, the house was moved from its original location in 1914 to make means for the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway. The Deane House in Alberta, Canada, is the haunted house equal to James Dean’s cursed set of wheels. In line with legend, nonetheless, Dean’s Porsche wasn’t finished spreading misery. And just like Dean’s Porsche, the home was a cell.
With such a violent past, it’s no surprise that some say the home stays haunted at present. Another first lady, Dolley Madison, has reportedly been quite territorial with White House renovations.

Your office environment needs to keep up with the ever-evolving landscape of business technology and working trends to survive and thrive. The modern workplace has streamlined business processes, and flexible working options have greatly improved employee morale.
A study conducted by HP revealed that 72% of workers believe outdated technology harms productivity, and 62% of managers said up-to-date technology would help boost employee engagement. The easier your employees are able to work and collaborate with quick and efficient technology, the more efficient your company will become.
By progressively adapting to modern workplace technologies, businesses have been able to greatly increase productivity and take advantage of the associated advantages.
What is a modern workplace?
The modern workplace is a business set-up that has been designed to meet all the technical, physical, and locational needs of your day-to-day operations.
Employees expect more flexible working situations; they want to be able to work from home, or at a café, in their own time, rather than in an office building five days a week. Flexible working arrangements has improved productivity; a recent survey stated 61% of Australians prefer a hybrid working model – choosing when to come into the office and when to work elsewhere.
The modern workplace provides teams with the necessary means to excel and achieve what they need to do in their day-to-day operations, regardless of location. With cloud-powered technology, for instance, you can move from one method to another without losing critical information and data.
The Microsoft 365 suite is a prime example of adapting technology to suit flexible working situations. Its solutions focus on creating more secure endpoints, to ensure all the business data is protected on all devices being used.
The Microsoft suite also allows for greater collaboration and communication through Microsoft Teams; users can chat in multiple channels, video call multiple team members, and collaborate together on projects instantly through various documents.
Applying productivity tools that enhance the modern workplace experience has many benefits for your business, and can be easily implemented with the help of a managed services provider.
The business benefits of a modern workplace
Modern workplace solutions have been proven to increase employee productivity, which in turn enhances customer satisfaction. These, in turn, boost revenue and profits, which allows you to bring in more potential clients and drive success in your field.
Adopting a modern workplace gives your business effective tools to increase overall productivity and keep your company ahead of the competition.
- Employee morale boost
Happy people make for productive employees. Implementing a modern workplace gives a nod to the ever-important work-life balance. Your employees are more comfortable choosing their working environment; this way, when they do come into the office, it’s because they want to. Not only does this improve overall team morale, it allows for genuine bonding between co-workers.
Flexible working arrangements also greatly reduces fatigue. Some of your employees may be commuting over an hour to get to and from work every day. Taking away that travelling time is another important factor in improving your company culture.
- Productivity increase
A modern workplace isn’t just about remote working; it’s about creating a modern, digital workplace. People work from PCs, laptops, tablets, and even their mobile phones. Having the ability to access work-related documents and projects from any device boosts the ability to work from anywhere.
A modern technological environment is a key consideration when it comes to modernising your workplace. It also helps to automate workflows – simple, repetitive tasks like adding calendar dates and collating data through modern technology will give your employees more time to focus on the important things.
- Enhanced security
Most modern workplaces are hosted on cloud platforms, like Microsoft Azure. The more your workforce is decentralised, the tighter your security needs to be.
Fortunately, technology aimed at serving the modern workplace has taken secure access concerns into consideration. Azure, for example, comes with security created to protect your assets and data with the latest tech at every endpoint.
Two key desires in all business ventures are to save time and money. Modernising your workplace will drive efficiency and decrease your operating costs.
Modern workplace solutions allow for quicker response times to customers, quicker decision-making, reduced travel, and greater collaboration – all of which lead to increased revenue and profits for your business.
Boost your company value
Creating a modern workplace for your business environment is the way forward; it enables you to keep ahead of the curve, streamline your business processes, and greatly improves your company culture.
The IT experts at Bespoke have modern workplace solutions designed to suit any business model. Contact them today and bring your company into the future.

The rumors are true. Lexus is developing a manual transmission for electric vehicles. It aims to offer the technology in the production version of the Electrified Sport concept, which is the spiritual successor to the LFA. The company already has a system prototype in UX 300e. Watch the demonstration at 1:30 p.m. in the video above.
Just like the regular manual, there is a clutch pedal, gearshift, even a tachometer. It is a software based system, and the code can reproduce the driving experience of various vehicles. Drivers can choose their preferred setting.
The Lexus video doesn’t specify how the driver selects the settings, but may relate to the knob with the L4, BEV, and V8 settings. Motor1.com contact Lexus for more details.
Rumors of a Lexus sports car using a manual gearbox surfaced in August 2022. Early prototypes of the technology reportedly limit power from the electric motor and gear changes open up additional output.
Beyond the manual gearbox, Lexus is preparing more technology for the production-spec Electrified Sport concept. It will get the company’s One Motion Grip steering-by-wire system. The arrangement eliminates the mechanical connection between the steering wheel and the front wheels. The automaker claims the setup provides better low-speed agility and road stability. The RZ 450e will be the first model available with this feature.
The road Electrified Sport concept will also have brake-by-wire technology. Lexus hasn’t outlined any details about this system yet. This model will also feature Direct4 all-wheel drive.
Powertrain specifications on the model are still a mystery. With all-wheel drive, we hope to have at least two electric motors. The company projects acceleration to 62 miles per hour (100 kilometers per hour) in about 2.0 seconds.
There are no battery specifications yet. Lexus projects a range of just over 435 miles (700 kilometers), but it’s unclear which test cycle this figure came from.
Lexus hasn’t said when the production-ready Electrified Sport concept will arrive. In the video, the company promises that it’s not just a concept.

The Roadster has evolved from a small two-seater to a large and equally powerful one. These days, even the top-spec models from the brand have convertible versions, which brings us to today’s showdown on the tarmac.
What we have here are four European convertibles in that part of the world, courtesy of Carwow. These cars have three things in common: two-seater, convertible roof, and powerful engines that prioritize open-top exhilarating fun. If you want a breeze on the high-speed highway, these cars should be on your short list.
But which one is the fastest? This drag race should provide a final score.
First, the statistics. The Mercedes-AMG SL 55, introduced last year, is powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 that produces 469 horsepower (350 kilowatts) and 516 pound-feet (700 Newton-meters) of torque. It is a detuned version of the SL 63, weighing 4,299 pounds (1,950 kilograms).
The 992-generation Porsche 911 GTS stands out as the only rear-wheel drive competitor in the group. The twin-turbo 3.0-liter flat-six produces 473 hp (353 kW) and 420 lb-ft (570 Nm) of torque, used to tow 3,560 lbs (1,615 kg) – its lightest weight.
Meanwhile, the BMW M850i is the heaviest competitor with a weight of 4,685 lbs (2,125 kg). It used a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 engine that developed 523 hp (390 kW) and 553 lb-ft (750 Nm) of torque.
The Jaguar F-Type R is the only supercharged model here, with a 5.0-liter V8 making up to 567 hp (423 kW) and 516 lb-ft (700 Nm) of torque. It’s slightly heavier than the Porsche but still light at 3,946 lbs (1,790 kg).
With all those numbers, which do you think wins the quarter mile sprint? How about a rolling start? The race above should give you the answer but as a hint, it’s not what you’d expect.

Cash is the fuel that keeps the small businesses growing. Without access to business loans, even the most successful brands could experience a serious cash flow crisis.
Unfortunately, small businesses struggle to obtain business loans from traditional owners of capital, like banks, credit unions, and venture capitalists.
To keep business operations afloat, most entrepreneurs turn to alternative lenders to get cash quickly to salvage dire business situations.
Obtaining a Merchant Cash Advance is one of the quickest ways available to businesses that need to get their hands on quick money to cover bad cash flow. But like any other borrowing vehicle, MCAs have their own pros and cons.
This article exposes the myths and facts surrounding Merchant Cash Advances(MCA) so that you can make an informed decision before sinking into debt with this type of borrowing.
Let’s jump right in!
What is a merchant cash advance?
This is an alternative funding source available to businesses, especially those with poor credit history. A finance company advances the borrower a direct deposit to be repaid based on an agreed percentage of future credit card sales.
The lender deducts a certain percentage of each credit card sale you make daily, but you may be lucky to find a few who accept weekly or monthly payments. APRs are expressed in factor rates of 1.2 to 1.5 and can easily run into triple digits.
What makes MCAs attractive to entrepreneurs is that they offer cash quickly to businesses with poor credit without the need for collateral.
Merchant cash advance: Pros and cons
- Faster lending: An MCA lender offers you cash immediately or within a few days. Money will be in your account around 2-5 business days.
- No need for collateral: MCA companies don’t ask you for collateral. Thus, your business and personal assets stay safe.
- Loans for poor credit: MCAs are targeted at businesses with poor credit profiles. Lenders won’t mind your credit score as long as your daily sales can cover repayments.
- High APRs: Average annual percentage rates range between 40%-150% and may go up to 400%.
- Shorter repayment terms: Repayments terms are usually 3 to 12 months
- Requires a credit card processor account: You must have a credit card processor account with at least $50,000 annual credit sales.
- Two years of credit sales: Some lenders may require you to have long-standing credit sales history of 2 or more years.
- Hidden fees: If sales are low and repayment takes longer, the lender may assess an additional fee of up to 10% of the borrowed amount. Late fees may also apply.
4 Merchant cash advance myths debunked
MCAs are loans
Contrary to popular opinion, this isn’t a loan but an expensive purchase of the borrower’s future credit/debit card receivables.
Unlike loans, MCAs don’t adhere to a fixed repayment schedule and have no specific lending terms. Money is automatically deducted from the borrower’s credit card processor account daily or weekly until the balance and accrued interest finishing.
You may lose business or personal assets
This is not true because you don’t need to pledge collateral to secure an MCA. The loan is secured using your future credit card sales. Thus, you only need a healthy history of annual credit sales to qualify.
Cash advances are for failing or desperate businesses
Many people associate MCAs with desperate business people who have nowhere else to turn to. That’s not always the case. Any type of business, including successful brands that need cash quickly, can obtain it to inject cash flow into their business.
With rejection rates at 63%-80%, even businesses with solid credit profiles and a long trading history face rejection when applying for SBA or traditional bank loans. Therefore, many merchants may turn to MCAs.
MCAs are the only faster source of financing
Finally, many small businesses turn to MCAs because they think they are the only faster funding source. While that could have been true many years ago, it’s no longer the case. Today there’s a crop of online lenders that offer small business loans within 24 hours at favorable terms than what you would get with one.
Visit the link in the intro to learn more about an MCA vs. a small business loan.

When I ascended to the top floor of the Blair-Caldwell African American Research Library in Five Points, I had the Western Legacies gallery all to myself, except for the voices (1) talking about the Black Seminoles in a video and (2) greeting customers entering a barbershop run by a black resident of Denver.
Despite the competing recordings, I lingered in the exhibit for the barbershop. The mirrors (not shown in the photograph) magnified the space, and there was something elegiac about the chair sitting there empty.
The exhibit honors Robert Smith, an early Denver barber who freed his family from slavery and brought them West. His son followed in his footsteps as a barber in Denver, one of the independent occupations open to black men in the first part of the twentieth century.
Next to that room is another, smaller room describing the career of James Presley Ball, “one of the earliest and most accomplished African American photographers of the 19th century.”
There is so much more than these two rooms I’ve described. I have to confess I spent so much time in that part of the museum that I didn’t have the energy to explore the rest in any detail. Here are a few things I learned while watching the video about the Black Seminoles:
- They were slaves who escaped to Seminole territory in Florida and lived among the Seminole Indians in separate villages.
- The Seminoles comprised members of such southeastern tribes as the Muscogee Creek, Miccosukee, and Apalachicola.
- Describing the status of Black Seminoles is complicated, because some of the Indians in Florida owned slaves, but their concept of slavery was generally less draconian than that practiced in the British colonies.
- The Seminoles were expelled from Florida in 1838 and embarked on the Trail of Tears, which led to Indian Territory (now Oklahoma). The Black Seminoles who survived were threatened with slavery once again. In the 1840s, a few Seminoles escaped to Mexico, where the government employed them as militia fighting, ironically enough, the Indians.
- In the 1870s, the US government employed Black Seminoles as army scouts in the Texas Indian wars. Many eventually settled in Brackettville, Texas.
- Recently, the Seminole Tribe of Oklahoma decided to exclude the Black Seminoles (called Seminole Freedmen) from membership, thus denying the Freedmen any share of the compensation the US government gave the tribe for its expulsion from Florida.
- Nowadays Black Seminoles live from Oklahoma to Texas to Mexico to Florida to Andros Island in the Bahamas.

The first thing that needs to be mentioned in the 1xBet vs. 22Bet showdown is almost identical interface solutions. However, it is fair to say that the modern industry has already built up certain standards in terms of the look and functionality of betting websites. Newcomers will hardly see or feel any differences at first at all.
Nevertheless, we will give the point to 1xBet here. While it is debatable, because some users will find its UI more clutched up, it is difficult to argue that it is more modern. It features a pleasant blue and white color scheme and displays all of the tabs right on the main page. Its interface just works; intuitive navigation is possible due to simple icons that mark different tabs. Moreover, the top left corner of the page includes a number of functions like “Bets via Telegram”, “Statistics”, “Smartphone App” and some more.
When we do prefer the approach of 1xBet, the website of 22Bet is still one of the best in the current market. The layout of the UI is identical for both pages, while the main difference is in the quantity of the tabs. In addition, the theme of the 22Bet site is based on the green pallet. Another difference is that you have to click on the Registration button to fill in the information here, while the competitor allows doing it right from the main page.
22Bet vs. 1xBet: Place Your Bets
Right from the start, you can be sure of the quality of real-money betting with both 1xBet and 22Bet. The main initial requirement for getting access to gambling on these portals is the availability of a personal account with actual valid information about the user.
The process of creating an account will not bring anything new to the table. With 22Bet you choose between “By Email” and “Social Networks” options of registration, while with 1xBet the variants are “One-click” and “By Phone”.
Information required for registration:
- Country and preferable currency;
- Valid phone number;
- Email address;
- First and Second name of the user;
- Promo code (optional);
- Confirmation code (if you use email instead of the phone number).
To be able to finish the verification process, you only need to provide your personal valid information. It is only when you have gone through all the steps of registration you can deposit money and start gambling. This aspect brings points to both sides in the 1xBet vs. 22Bet competition because each of the websites supports money transfers in Indian rupees. With the lowest threshold for deposit of 75 INR for the first competitor and 80 INR for the second one, their services can truly be called accessible.
Instruction for placing a bet:
- Choose among Sports, Esports, TV games, or Live sections on the main page;
- Select a particular sport and a subcategory (Leagues, particular event, etc.);
- Click on one of the betting options (outcomes) and adjust the value of the deposit in the bet slip on the right side of the screen;
- Confirm your actions.
The platform performs the money operations automatically. The credits will be deducted right after you place a bet, and in case you win, you will get the multiplied sum back almost instantly. There is clearly a tie between 1xBet and 22Bet in terms of this aspect. There is no doubt that you will be satisfied with the betting system of both portals.
1xBet vs. 22Bet: Whose Odds are Better?
While both websites pack some of the best odds on the Indian market, the side-by-side 22Bet vs. 1xBet comparison does not have a clear winner. As the leading platforms, they include all the important events and most of the time offer identical betting odds.
Considering the popularity of football betting via the reviewed platforms, we decided to ensure you that both of them cover the full range of sport’s events:
- UEFA Europa League;
- Premier League of England;
- Champions League of UEFA;
- UEFA Conference League.
The same goes for literally every sport you can possibly think of. Even with Esports, the selection of betting options is truly outstanding. India players can be 100% sure that all of the major sports events that take place in their country are also available for betting at both 22Bet and 1xBet websites.
1xBet vs. 22Bet in Terms of Promotions for Beginners
It is clear that the bonus system is one of the key factors punters consider while making a choice of the platform. All the advanced platforms on the current market have quite similar features in terms of functionality and services, as you might have already noticed in this 1xBet vs. 22Bet review/comparison article. However, the approach to rewarding the new members of the community differs a lot across the board.
With 1xBet, new customers can multiply their first deposit by 2 just by accruing at least 75 rupees. The highest threshold is 8000 INR so you can get as much as 16000 rupees as a bonus by using the promotion to its fullest potential.
However, to be able to withdraw the bonus credits you must place the value of the bonus on 5 accumulator bets that contain at least 3 events each. Make sure to double-check the validity of particular betting options for meeting the wagering requirements of the promotion (the odds have to be 1.4 or higher). Also, do not waffle; you have to make it within 30 days after activating the bonus.
As for 22Bet, the matching bonus is also 100%, but the limit for the first deposit is 2000 rupees higher. Therefore, by accruing 10000 INR you obtain 20000 INR as a bonus. However, it comes with a corresponding price; the wagering requirements are also a bit stricter. You need to bet the bonus credits 5 times on the events with odds of 1.5 or higher within 7 days after claiming the Sign Up offer.
Instruction for claiming the bonus:
- Open the main page of 22Bet or 1xBet and navigate to the registration section;
- Sign up to the platform using the instruction above;
- Opt for using the Welcome bonus;
- Deposit a sum even or bigger than the minimum deposit using the preferable payment option;
- The bonus credits will be added to a separate account automatically.
While comparing 1xBet vs. 22Bet we think that the first platform has a slight edge over the second one in this aspect. However, at the end of the day, both of the competitors do provide generous rewards to their clients.
Comparing the Withdrawal Process of the Sites
While trying to cash out your winnings at 1xBet or 22Bet for the first time, you will find out that the “Withdrawal” button is greyed out. Do not panic, all you need to do is to provide some personal information and verify its validity. The process itself is quite simple with both portals and takes approximately 20 minutes to fill in the information and up to 2 working days to get the approval from the support service.
Documents you have to provide:
- A document that proves your identity (Passport, Driver ID, or Voter ID);
- Account statement from the bank;
- Postal code and verification of your living address;
- Utility bills.
We could not miss describing the selection of the payment options of the competing websites. While both of them offer pretty similar lists, the main differences lie in the values of minimal cashouts and processing times.
|Withdrawal option||Min. limit 1xBet||Processing time 1xBet||Min. limit 22Bet||Processing time 22Bet|
|Visa cards||₹110||Up to 7 days||₹132||1 hour|
|MasterCard||₹110||Up to 7 days||₹132||1 hour|
|Bitcoin||₹110||15 minutes||₹132||1 hour|
|EcoPayz||₹110||15 minutes||₹132||1 hour|
|WebMoney||₹110||15 minutes||Not supported||–|
|Neteller||₹110||15 minutes||Not supported||–|
|Bank Transfer||Not supported||–||₹132||1 hour|
|Giropay||Not supported||–||₹132||1 hour|
As you can see, the cash-out time with 1xBet is significantly faster than with 22Bet, while the minimum amount for withdrawal is also lower. This brings another point to this platform in the tight competition. However, it is fair to point out the convenience and stability of the banking system of 22Bet too. Neither of the websites charges additional fees for transfer operations.
22Bet vs. 1xBet: Comparing the Deposit Process of the Sites
Real-money gambling cannot go far without constant deposits to the platform, which in its turn can only be possible with a convenient selection of payment options for accruing credits.
Take a look at the available methods of the websites:
|Deposit option||Min. limit 1xBet||Processing time 1xBet||Min. limit 22Bet||Processing time 22Bet|
|Bank Transfer||Not supported||–||₹80||Immediate|
Unfortunately, none of the platforms accepts payment methods like UPI, which are especially convenient for users from India. However, Indian players can use other available options, considering the fact that both websites officially support Indian rupees as a currency. It is worth mentioning that there are no fees for accruing money and transfer operations take virtually no time, regardless of the payment option.
22Bet vs. 1xBet: Sportsbook Comparison
Of course, one of the key aspects of any betting platform is the selection of sports and events you can choose for betting. We have already briefly mentioned the diversity of both 1xBet and 22Bet sportsbooks. It includes over 30 disciplines in total, which cover all the popular sports you can think of. The websites of the competitors display the available options on the left side of the page, where you can see the name of the sport and the number of betting options currently available for it (for example Football (121)).
Here are some of the common picks:
- Ice Hockey;
- Ski Jumping;
- Formula 1.
It would take too much time to describe or even mention all of the points from the list of options, but you should already have an idea about its versatility.
Another feature to mention in this section of the review is the in-built player for watching live translations of the events. This is where both 1xBet and 22Bet got it right; almost every event has its own live stream that any user can freely watch.
Moreover, the window with the player can act as an overlay on the main page of the website, so you could keep track of your bets or place new ones while watching the stream. The size and placement of the window are also adjustable, which makes its use even more convenient.
This section of the review has no winner either. Both platforms are great for sports betting with a vast range of options and live streaming features.
22Bet vs. 1xBet: Whose Mobile App is Better?
The increasing popularity of mobile gambling has made it almost obligatory for platforms to provide a separate application for the part of their audience that prefers tuning in from a smartphone. Both 1xBet app and 22Bet app follow the trend with their top-notch applications you can download for Android and IOS devices. Low system requirements and the small size of the extensions make them accessible to clients with older and less capable devices.
In terms of choosing only one of them, there is no right or wrong. In fact, the functionality and interface of the applications are almost identical to the full-fledged browser version of the platform. Therefore, all the points regardless of the features of 1xBet and 22Bet from the review above count for their apps as well.
1xBet vs. 22Bet: Language Options
It is obvious that both 1xBet and 22Bet, being huge international platforms, provide an option to change the language of the interface. In fact, both websites allow choosing from over 60 variants. It is fair to say that the quality of the translation is on a decent level regardless of the language you stick with.
Even though the customer support of the websites is available mainly in English, customers from India will not find difficulties speaking Hindi with the representatives. They use translation services to provide convenient international support for every client.
User Reviews of the Platforms
The last word in our 1xBet vs. 22Bet comparison should be dedicated to the comments from the actual clients of the platforms. There is no doubt that their thoughts usually represent the situation in the most objective way.The majority of players seem to enjoy low withdrawal limits of 22Bet as well as its high betting odds and regular winnings. On the other side, customer support and the selection of new events conquer the hearts of the 1xBet customers. The ratio of the reviews is 100% on the positive side with only a little share of the customers unsatisfied with some aspects of the gambling portals. We recommend exploring the forums and blogs on the topic to check the comments yourself as it might be the key factor in your decision-making process.

2023 Indian Premier League Predictions, Betting Odds & Winning Tips (March 31 – May 22)
One fine day fifteen years ago, India kicked off a domestic T20 cricket league called the Indian Premier League. The IPL was created as a means of developing local Indian players in the shortest form of the game and generating extra revenue. Few would have thought that the Indian Premier League would explode in the way that it has – now, it is more valuable than FIFA and the NBA and is arguably the most-watched cricket event in the world. And it’s about to get underway this year, for the sixteenth time.
IPL 2023: Cricket Event Details
This IPL 2023 season is shaping up to be one of the most competitive yet. The Gujarat Titans will be looking to defend the title they won in their inaugural season, while a reinvigorated Delhi Capitals side will be looking to challenge as well.
Throw in some perpetually successful sides such as the Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings, and we have fantastic competition on our hands. Read on for everything you need to know about the next seven weeks as our experts bring their IPL 2023 predictions based on the latest odds.
|Tournament:||The TATA Indian Premier League 2023, 16th edition of T20 cricket|
|Venues:||Cricket stadiums across India|
|Dates:||Friday 31 March to Sunday 22 May|
2023 IPL Odds to Win Outright
We’ve got loads of high-quality analysis and IPL 16 betting tips to come, but those who are eager to jump straight in and bet on IPL 2023 online can consider the following outright winner odds:
- Gujarat Titans to win @ 6.00 (5/1)
- Delhi Capitals to win @ 7.00 (6/1)
- Mumbai Indians to win @ 7.00 (6/1)
- Rajasthan Royals to win @ 8.00 (7/1)
- Royal Challengers Bangalore to win @ 8.00 (7/1)
- Punjab Kings to win @ 8.00 (7/1)
- Lucknow Super Giants to win @ 9.00 (8/1)
- Chennai Super Kings to win @ 10.00 (9/1)
- Kolkata Knight Riders to win @ 10.00 (9/1)
- Sunrisers Hyderabad to win @ 13.00 (12/1)
Those who love to bet on cricket will immediately see that bookies are predicting the Indian Premier League Season 16 to be very tight. While the Gujarat Titans are clear favorites on 6.00 (5/1), they are barely double the odds of the last played Sunrisers Hyderabad, on 13.00 (12/1). This reinforces the mantra that in T20 cricket, it’s anyone’s game.
Based on the 2023 IPL outright winner odds, the toughest rivals to the Gujarat Titans will be the Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians, who both sit on 7.00 (6/1). However, right behind these favorites are the Rajasthan Royal, Royal Challengers Bangalore, and Punjab Kings, who are all on 8.00 (7/1). Even those who are out of the top five favorites are in with a chance this season, as the Lucknow Super Giants, Chennai Super Kings, and Kolkata Knight Riders are only on odds of 9.00 to 10.00 (8/1 to 9/1).
Understanding the IPL 2023 Cricket Competition
Held annually since 2008, the TATA IPL consists of ten teams from seven cities and three states across India. The IPL’s popularity has skyrocketed due to its compact format and inclusion of high-profile players from cricket teams around the world, similarly leveraging a franchise model to the English Premier League does in football.
Last Five Winners
- 2018 – Chennai Super Kings beat Sunrisers Hyderabad
- 2019 – Mumbai Indians beat Chennai Super Kings
- 2020 – Mumbai Indians beat Delhi Capitals
- 2021 – Chennai Super Kings beat Kolkata Knight Riders
- 2022 – Gujarat Titans beat Rajasthan Royals
The Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings have traditionally dominated the IPL, winning nine of the past fifteen seasons and four of the last five. However, newcomers Gujarat Titans claimed the title last year and will be looking to signal a changing of the guard by defending their title again this year.
IPL 2023 Format
This season, the IPL will see teams split into two groups of five. Teams will then play home and away matches against all of the teams in the opposite group to them, facing each side twice and those in their own group once.
|Group A||Group B|
|Mumbai Indians||Chennai Super Kings|
|Kolkata Knight Riders||Sunrisers Hyderabad|
|Rajasthan Royals||Gujarat Titans|
|Delhi Capitals||Royal Challengers Bangalore|
|Lucknow Super Giants||Punjab Kings|
These groups are only relevant for determining the season’s fixtures, as points will be collated in a unified standings table. The top four teams will then advance to the playoffs, with the No.1 and No.2 sides competing in a Qualifier 1 Final and the No.3 and No.4 teams playing an Eliminator Final.
The winner of the Eliminator will face the loser of Qualifier 1 in a Qualifier 2 Final, with the winner of Qualifier 2 playing the winner of Qualifier 1 in the Grand Final.
Top Five Favorites & IPL 2023 Predictions
Enough of the details; here’s what you came for: Our 2023 IPL season predictions and preview. Below, our experts take a look at each of the top five favorites this year and analyze how they expect them to perform this season.
Gujarat Titans @ 6.00 (5/1)
As the defending champions, the Gujarat Titans have to be in the equation for the title in the IPL 2023. With the brilliant captaincy of Hardik Pandya, there’s every chance that Gujarat will be real title contenders.
- Captained by Hardik Pandya
- Finished 1st in IPL 2022 (Champions)
- Big names are Rashid Khan, David Miller, and Kane Williamson
The Titans have a strong batting lineup, with an all-Indian opening pair, mature middle order, and plenty of fireworks as well. The only question is around the pace bowling attack, which is a little tentative, should any injuries strike. Josh Little and Mohammad Shami lead the attack, with Rashid Khan taking care of the spin – depth is a concern, however.
IPL 2023 Prediction for the Gujarat Titans: Third
Mumbai Indians @ 7.00 (6/1)
As the IPL’s most successful franchise with five titles to their name, the Mumbai Indians will be desperate to forget last season’s horror last-place finish. They’re well placed to do so this year, having made some good signings at the IPL 2023 auction, namely Australian all-rounder Cameron Green.
- Captained by Rohit Sharma
- Finished 10th in IPL 2022
- Big names are Jofra Archer, Cameron Green, and Suryakumar Yadav
The biggest issue for Mumbai will be their bowling, as Jasprit Bumrah has been ruled out of the IPL 2023. If Jhye Richardson or Jason Behrendorff have a big season, however, they could well be title contenders yet again.
Predicted finish for the Mumbai Indians in IPL 2023: Runners-Up
Delhi Capitals @ 7.00 (6/1)
After narrowly missing out on the playoffs last season, the Delhi Capitals will be eager not to make the same mistake this year. However, the loss of Rishabh Pant as a big-hitter and captain is a significant loss for Delhi, who will struggle to fill the void left by Pant.
- Captained by David Warner
- Finished 5th in IPL 2022
- Big names are Rilee Russouw, Mitchell Marsh, and Lungi Ngidi
The concern for Delhi is if their big top order fails to fire, they have a relatively unproven middle order. Even the presence of the recent T20 Cricket World Cup winner, Phil Salt, can hardly solve the issue. It feels as though their season largely pivots on the form of Warner, Shaw, and Marsh, who could carry them; or see them fall.
Royal Challengers Bangalore @ 8.00 (7/1)
Could this be the year that the Royal Challengers Bangalore finally win the IPL? They’ve finished runners-up three times but have never in 15 years lifted the trophy. Yet again, they have a strong squad, but in previous years there has been little correlation between their firepower and results.
- Captained by Faf du Plessis
- Finished 3rd in IPL 2022 (lost Qualifier 2 Final)
- Big names are Virat Kohli, Glenn Maxwell, and Josh Hazlewood
Bangalore have an imposing squad, with the experience of du Plessis and Kohli at the top, the firepower of Maxwell and Karthik, with the bowling nous of Hasaranga, Hazlewood, and Siraj. It’s hard to see them not making a deep run here unless the old RCB curse kicks in once more.
Royal Challengers Bangalore Prediction for IPL 2023: Champions
Rajasthan Royals @ 8.00 (7/1)
The Rajasthan Royals will be rueing their missed opportunities in the IPL 2022, which saw them fall at the final hurdle to the Gujarat Titans in the Grand Final. After winning the inaugural IPL season, the Royals are yet to add another title and will be desperate to do so this season.
- Captained by Sanju Samson
- Finished 2nd in IPL 2022 (lost Grand Final)
- Big names are Jos Buttler, Joe Root, and Trent Boult
With two in-form English batsmen, the Royals have some hope of a title this year. However, it feels as though their squad is missing a signing or two. They’ll certainly need opener Yashasvi Jaiswal to step up in the opening slot and the likes of Kuldeep Sen with the ball as well.
IPL 2023 Rajasthan Royals Prediction: Sixth
Best 2023 Indian Premier League Tips
Enough previewing; let’s look at the cricket IPL-16 odds and get straight to the best bets we can place on IPL 2023! Below are our top two predictions, based on the latest odds from IPL betting apps:
Royal Challengers Bangalore to Win @ 8.00 (7/1)
That’s right, this is it. The year that the Royal Challengers Bangalore finally win an IPL! After years of having great squads and underperforming, we say it will all come together for RCB in the IPL 2023.
Firstly, this is a much better team when Virat Kohli is focusing on his batting rather than captaining. Last year, under Faf du Plessis’ captaincy for the first time, RCB were excellent, making a deep run to the Qualifying 2 Final, which they narrowly lost. We expect the group to be even more galvanized around du Plessis’ leadership this year and again make a deep run.
Secondly, they’ve got winners in all the right positions. They have experienced and world-class openers in Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli, followed by middle-order firepower in Glenn Maxwell and Dinesh Karthik. The bowling nous of Wanindu Hasaranga will squeeze out wickets in the middle overs, while the star power of Mohammad Siraj and Josh Hazlewood is an excellent strike bowling attack.
Add in the depth of having Reece Topley and Finn Allen on the bench should any starters have injuries or poor form, and this looks like a winning side. Back them at 8.00 (7/1) and be ready to party it up in Bangalore in May!
Mumbai Indians to Make the Final @ 4.50 (7/2)
We say Mumbai will bounce back strong from their horror season last year and show why they’ve won a third of all the IPL seasons contested. Expect this strong campaign to be based around Jofra Archer rekindling his best form and Rohit Sharma having another big 500+ run season.
Mumbai will also need their Aussies to stand up, with Cameron Green costing a fat cheque in the IPL 2023 auction. However, he’s been performing well in his national duties and could well be a big reason why Mumbai make it all the way to the finals this year.
Our Recommended Indian Premier League 2023 Predictions
- Royal Challengers Bangalore to Win @ 8.00 (7/1)
- Mumbai Indians to Make the Final @ 4.50 (7/2)
The greatest cricketing spectacle on earth is about to get underway, and all cricket punters are searching for IPL 2023 predictions. Stadiums will be seething with passionate Indian fans, all going wild for their favorite IPL team. But who’s fans will have the most to cheer about this season?
We say that finally, after 15 years of trying and failing, this will be the season that the Royal Challengers Bangalore take the IPL trophy home. Under the leadership of Faf du Plessis, they looked good last year and have all the right components to make a winning run this year – but not without some stiff competition from the likes of Mumbai.

True Scale Terminators – A size comparison guide
UPDATE 24/03/23: With the preview of the new Indomitus Terminator kit by Gamesworkshop, I have included a scale update at the bottom of the article.
I’ve recently gone down the True Scale Terminator rabbit hole. I love the idea of using terminators with my Primaris Minotaur army, but it seems like the standard terminators don’t really hold up in comparison to Primaris Intercessors as they are just too small.
The aim here is either to buy terminators and use them out of the box, if their size is large enough, or to use them as the basis for a conversion into something larger. An additional option is to use gravis armour with terminator components.
Before I went off buying models, I wanted to see if there was any size difference between the patterns of terminator armour in the various model ranges, allowing me to work out which are the largest terminators available. Photoshop seemed like a good way to put this to the test. What planned to be a quick job turned into a much larger project; it turns out Games Workshop sells a LOT of different terminators! I’ve tried to include as many of them as possible here, ignoring some of the older kits and character models.
Things to note:
- I’ve scaled each model to its correct base size.
- The red line represents the centre of the base, or the bottom of the feet/foot. This isn’t as easy as it seems due to how the models are posed or positioned on the base.
- The blue line represents the eye level of the Primaris Intercessor which is my comparison model.
- I’ve also included a Heavy Intercessor as a comparison as this could also be a good basis for converting true scale terminators.
- While as accurate as possible, there are some variables such as the angle of the photo, positioning of the model on the base, the pose of the model, and even things like different camera lenses which could all potentially lead to inaccuracies. However, even taking those things into account, this should be good enough to make some decision as about which models to use.
Narrowing down the list
I’ve listed below what I consider to be the best options, choosing the largest model, but also removing those from the list which won’t easily make a terminator squad. For example, I haven’t included Abaddon because it’s just one model. Similarly, Lord Filthius & Tainted Cohort have been discontinued. [EDIT: The Lord Filthius set is now back on sale so might be worth another look.]
With those models in mind, here are a few options for making True Scale Terminators. I’ve still not decided which route I’ll go down and I’d love to hear people’s opinions on these options or other methods which I might not have considered.
Option 1 – Indomitus Armour:
The easiest method is to just buy the Season 2 Heroes range. The Heroes range does feel like GW’s attempt at making true scale First Born. Getting hold of these minis might be tricky though. In the UK, you can buy Rise of the Orks which includes the five-squad model. Captain and Ancient models also exist in the Heroes range but are much harder to find – unless you live in Japan!
Option 2 – Relic Armour:
The Cataphractii pattern holds up well and the newer resin kits from Forgeworld appear to be larger than the standard plastic models. You could certainly take the Blood Angels and Dark Angels squad and remove some the chapter specific iconography. Tartaros currently seems too small, which is a shame as I really like that pattern of armour. If Forgeworld were to produce a Tartaros chapter-specific kit in the future, maybe these would also go up slightly in size.
Option 3 – Chaos Armour.
It’s certainly possible to de-chaosify a mini. I’ve already been doing this with the Abaddon model for my custom Asterion Moloc, so the standard Chaos Terminators would fit in well here. The Blightlord terminators are certainly some of the biggest terminators, but it would be a lot of effort to remove all the nurgle elements from the mini.
Option 4 – Custodes
While these are some of the largest terminators, the Aquilon being the largest of all them all, these are also the most divergent from the classic Indomitus pattern. You could make up your own armour pattern. Minotaurs are known for having Arkonak Pattern Tactical Dreadnought Armour, for which there are no visual references, so it would be easy to explain why your terminator armour looks different from the standard Indomitus Pattern.
The Aquilon armour has the additional handicap of only coming in squads of three from Forgeworld and also being very expensive. There’s a fantastic tutorial over on Death of a Rubricist on converting up Aquilon Armour.
- Kit bash using Gravis Armour / Heavy Intercessors. A few people have already done tutorials for this, such as Black Wing Painting and Pete the Wargamer.
- Upscale terminators using classic True Scale method:
- From The Warp has a guide which bulks out the waist, though I feel the legs also need to be larger. Maybe this method could be combined with Gravis legs? I’ve seen other methods adding greenstuff between the torso and legs.
- Veteran Sergeant has a tutorial showing what is considered a classic method for making true scale First Born minis. This method might translate into terminators.
- Master of the Forge has a detailed method upscaling a terminator and the scale looks very good. However it requires a lot of work with greenstuff so would take a long time to do a whole squad.
- Combine Terminator parts with Stormcast Eternal minis, something I plan to do for an Inquisitor conversion down the line.
UPDATE 24/03/23: New Terminators on the way
Gamesworkshop recently revealed that new Indomitus Pattern Terminators are on the way. I thought I would just do a new size guide comparing the new terminators against some of the old, in this case, the old Indomitus Pattern armour and the most recent terminator plastic kits, that from Space Marine Heroes 2 and the Chaos Terminaor.
You can see they’ve kept all the key elements of the original sculpts while increasing the scale, even larger than that of the Heroes range. Two design changes to note are the scopes above the head have changed sides, and the belt buckle has changed design from the Crux Terminatus to the standard belt buckle used by Primaris marines, a nice touch to keep the terminators inline with the new Primaris range and makes it nice and easy to add on some Ptergues to the model to kitbash these minis.

Miltiades or Miltiadis (short: Miltos) is a Greek name. Several historic persons have been called Miltiades (Μιλτιάδης).
* Miltiades the Elder (died c. 524 BC) wealthy Athenian, and step-uncle of Miltiades the Younger
* Miltiades the Younger (c. 550 - 489 BC), tyrant of the Thracian Chersonese and the Athenian commanding general in the Battle of Marathon
* Pope Miltiades (died 314), African saint and pope
Other people named Miltiadis
* Miltiadis Evert, Greek politician, born 1939
* Miltos Gkougkoulakis, Greek footballer, born 1977
* Miltiadis Goulimis, Greek politician, born 1844
* Miltiadis Iatridis, Greek naval officer in World War II, born 1906
* Miltiadis Manakis, Greek pioneering photographer and filmmaker, aka Milton Manachia, born 1882
* Miltos Sachtouris, Greek poet, born 1919
* Miltiadis Sapanis, Greek footballer, born 1976
The son of Cypselus. He was a man of considerable distinction in Athens in the time of Pisistratus. The Doloncians, a Thracian tribe dwelling in the Chersonesus, being hard pressed in war by the Absinthians, applied to the Delphic oracle for advice, and were directed to admit a colony led by the man who should be the first to entertain them after they left the temple. This was Miltiades, who, eager to escape from the rule of Pisistratus, gladly took the lead of a colony under the sanction of the oracle, and became tyrant of the Chersonesus, which he fortified by a wall built across its isthmus. In a war with the people of Lampsacus he was taken prisoner, but was set at liberty on the demand of Croesus. He died without leaving any children, and his sovereignty passed into the hands of Stesagoras, the son of his half-brother Cimon. Sacrifices and games were instituted in his honour, in which no Lampsacene was suffered to take part (Herod. vi. 34, 38, 103).
The son of Cimon and brother of Stesagoras. He became tyrant of the Chersonesus on the death of the latter, being sent out by Pisistratus from Athens to take possession of the vacant inheritance. By a stratagem he got the chief men of the Chersonesus into his power and threw them into prison, and took a force of mercenaries into his pay. In order to strengthen his position still more, he married Hegesipylé, the daughter of a Thracian prince named Olorus. He joined Darius Hystaspis on his expedition against the Scythians, and was left with the other Greeks in charge of the bridge over the Danube. When the appointed time had expired, and Darius had not returned, Miltiades recommended the Greeks to destroy the bridge and leave Darius to his fate. Some time after the expedition of Darius, an inroad of the Scythians drove Miltiades from his possessions; but after the enemy had retired the Doloncians brought him back. It appears to have been between this period and his withdrawal to Athens, that Miltiades conquered and expelled the Pelasgian inhabitants of Lemnos and Imbros and subjected the islands to the dominion of Attica. Lemnos and Imbros belonged to the Persian dominions; and it is probable that this encroachment on the Persian possessions was the cause which drew upon Miltiades the hostility of Darius, and led him to fly from the Chersonesus, when the Phœnician fleet approached, after the subjugation of Ionia. Miltiades reached Athens in safety, but his eldest son Metiochus fell into the hands of the Persians. At Athens Miltiades was arraigned, as being amenable to the pen
alties enacted against tyranny, but was acquitted. When Attica was threatened with invasion by the Persians under Datis and Artaphernes, Miltiades was chosen one of the ten generals. Miltiades by his arguments induced the polemarch Callimachus to give the casting vote in favour of risking a battle with the enemy, the opinions of the ten generals being equally divided. Miltiades waited till his turn came, and then drew his army up in battle array on the ever-memorable field of Marathon. (See Marathon.) After the defeat of the Persians, Miltiades endeavoured to urge the Athenians to measures of retaliation, and induced them to intrust to him an armament of seventy ships, without knowing the purpose for which they were designed. He proceeded to attack the island of Paros, for the purpose of gratifying a private enmity. His attacks, however, were unsuccessful; and after receiving a dangerous hurt in the leg, while penetrating into a sacred enclosure on some superstitious errand, he was compelled to raise the siege and return to Athens, where he was impeached by Xanthippus for having deceived the people. His wound had turned into a gangrene, and, being unable to plead his cause in person, he was brought into court on a couch, his brother Tisagoras conducting his defence for him. He was condemned; but on the ground of his services to the State the penalty was commuted to a fine of fifty talents, the cost of the equipment of the armament. Being unable to pay this, he was thrown into prison, where he not long after died of his wound. The fine was subsequently paid by his son Cimon. See Herod.iv. 137; Herod.vi. 41, Herod.132-136; Pausan. i. 15, 3; Nepos, Miltiades.

Mending Hearts by Janice Kay Johnson has David Miller returning to Tompkin’s Mill after being absent for six years. He fled after the death of his best friend and business partner, Levi. David feels that Levi’s death was his fault, and the guilt has been eating at him. The day after he returns, David encounters Miriam Bowman at a barn raising. Miriam and Levi had been courting and most people believed they would soon announce their betrothal. Miriam blames herself for Levi’s death. She works at the local quilt shop and has yet to marry. With the Bowman farm bordering David’s new property, they are thrown together frequently. It gives them a chance to talk and they become friends. David has loved Miriam since she was a teen, and his feelings continue to deepen. He does not feel he is worthy of Miriam while she does not feel worthy of love. Miriam and David need to overcome their feelings of guilt if they are to move forward with their lives and have a fulfilling future.
Mending Hearts by Janice Kay Johnson is the 2nd A Tompkin’s Mill Novel. It can be read as a standalone for those who have not read Turning Home. I thought Mending Hearts was well-written with developed characters. I like that we get to catch up with the characters from Turning Home. David Miller and Miriam Bowman both feel guilt over the death of Levi. Both of them need to come to terms with Levi’s death plus forgive themselves. It is the only way they can move forward with their lives. We see Miriam and David struggle with the guilt and loss of faith. I like that we get to know Miriam and David as well as their families and community. I like how the people in the community help each other. If someone has a need, they are there to assist (whether they want it or not). I thought Mending Hearts was an emotional novel about love, forgiveness, family, faith, and second chances. I like the drama in the second half of the book. It added another level of depth to the story. We get to see Miriam and David struggling with their faith. They are both having difficulty turning their troubles over to God and relying on Him. I did find the pace of Mending Hearts to be a little slow at time plus there is repetition. I also thought the story was a little long. These small issues aside, I enjoyed Mending Hearts. I especially loved the puppies (they sounded adorable) and Copper, the horse David was training. Mending Hearts is a heartwarming Amish tale with buggy rides, barn raising, quality quilts, fixing fences, disquieting guilt, and a special someone.
Mending Hearts publishes Tuesday, February 23 and it can be obtained from Amazon*. Turning Home is the first A Tompkin's Mill Novel. Finding Hope is the third A Tompkin's Mill Novel and it will publish on June 29. I appreciate you stopping by today and reading my review. Tomorrow I am sharing Farm to Trouble by Amanda Flower. It is the beginning of A Farm to Table Mystery series. I hope that you have a sparkling day. Take care of yourself, be kind, and Happy Reading!

So, looks like we are going to have another Bersih rally.
Honestly, I'm not surprised.
The Pakatan people need to keep the people interested in their bullshit. That's why they are going to have all these rallies. Lynas la, Chinese education la, Pengerang la, ya di da ya di da....
Doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that it's all just to counter BN's momentum of support which is snowballing as the general election comes ever nearer.
All those talks about environment ka, electoral reform ka, whatever ka are all bullshit, ok? All that matter is for them to topple the BN government.
Najib can follow whatever they say or give whatever they want, and still they will not stop the nonsense because those things about environmental protection, better electoral system or whatever else are not what they really want. What they want is power. That's all that they want. The rest - let me repeat, are all BULLSHIT.
Sorry aarr, today I feel like being harsh a bit. Bad mood leh. Nobody seems to love me today....never mind.
Ok, do you all think they will be happy if the Parliament Select Committee adopted all their demands, even those which doesn't make sense?
Come on la, let's get real. They will just come out with another excuse to have their happy happy rallies. That one they say only la. Really. Up to you all la want to believe or not, but that's how I see these people and their nonsense.
To me, it's the only way for them to keep themselves relevant as the general election draws near.
Well, you all just wait and see. My prediction is that, this is going to be the story line -
They are going to demand to make noise at the Dataran Merdeka. The authorities will say no and proposed for them to have it at the Shah Alam Stadium. All sorts of nonsense will follow. Demand to see the Yang DiPertuan Agong, meeting with the PM, meeting with the police etc etc. In the end, they will still go and have their hu ha hu ha in downtown KL so that they can have that dramatic effect. Police going to fire a few tear gas and a bit of water cannon. Then they are going to claim that the police are brutal, the government despotic etc etc. Marina Mahathir also going to have some fun promoting herself as a cool liberal, something like that daughter of Fidel Castro. Well, to cut it short, the whole circus again lah.
But, really la. Do you all think the ordinary people will be impressed ka with all these crap? I mean, for those people who lead an ordinary life, work hard for a living, thankful for what they have, and grateful for the good life that they have in this country. The Pakatan people keep saying our country is so bad that it's like Zimbabwe. Really ka? That bad ka? How many of those Pakatan people have ever been to Zimbabwe to make the comparison?
Our electoral system so corrupt ka? Is it like North Korea? Or is it like China? Errr...China, the next number one world economy got election ka? Eh, you all check yourself lah.
Eeeerrr....the funny title....eerrr, that one I simply simply put only. Just for fun. hehehehehe
You all remember this nice looking pot belly pig or not? Familiar or not?
Nice piggy piggy :-)

Vijay Iyer: ‘We’re all improvisers and we’re all creative people making choices every step of the way.’
Vijay Iyer is not only of the most interesting pianists and composers at work in modern music; he’s also one of its most contemplative and compelling, a Harvard professor of music who can talk hip-hop and funk and politics in one uninterrupted stream. In this interview with The List, he discusses his diverse influences, from James Brown to the Carnatic tradition, and the kinds of musicians who make the most powerful collaborators. “It’s like some kind of collective action, in the political sense of people putting their bodies on the line together,” he says of his ensembles. Iyer joins fellow piano innovator Craig Taborn for a rare duo set at Big Ears 2019.

Universities – along with their centers, departments, and colleges – vary greatly in the vibrancy of their respective academic culture (intellectual climate). Nevertheless, no university can be complacent about the vitality of their culture for academic excellence – least they lose it. Of course, there is no single academic culture.

Trees, grass and weeds can be fatal for many allergic people in their prime blooming period at the latest. Once the pollen concentration in the air is high, people with hay fever have to fight symptoms such as sneezing fits or eye irritation. A particularly strong pollen allergy can trigger allergic asthma. But how does this allergic reaction arise and what causes it?
Pollen allergy: an overreaction of the immune system
When you breathe in, pollen from the air reaches mucous membranes and leaves behind plant protein residues. Pollen allergy sufferers are also sensitive to this protein. Your immune system classifies the substance as a threat and tries to reject the protein. The body makes antibodies that combine with histamine. Together with so-called leukotrienes (inflammatory-promoting messenger substances), this substance triggers an inflammatory reaction and is ultimately responsible for the development of allergic symptoms. This process can be observed on all mucous membranes that are exposed to pollen protein. This includes the eyes, nose, and throat.
Noticeable complaints of reactions to the mucous membranes are redness, itching and swelling. However, pollen can also reach the bronchi and cause severe respiratory problems up to asthma attacks.
What are the factors that can promote hay fever?
Why the immune system for those who suffer from allergies in particular The time of the main flowering It appears that such an exaggeration has not been fully explored. However, it can be said that the predisposition to allergies is genetic. Although not every baby born to parents with allergies will have an allergy, the risk of allergies increases.
Children whose respiratory tracts are irritated in the long term by cigarette smoke or fine dust are also more likely to develop hay fever. To prevent disorders of lung development during pregnancy, which can later lead to an allergy to pollen, you must abstain from smoking.
Another possible explanation for a pollen allergy could be excessive hygiene during childhood. The alleged hygiene hypothesis states that children who come into contact with other children, dirt, and the like at an early age can have a stronger immune system. The immune system must be trained by persistent environmental influences.

Plastic Free Deodorant
As time goes on and the damage done to our planet becomes more and more evident, it becomes even clearer how important it is not just to limit the amount of harm we do but actively combat it.
The good news is that there are so many ways we can lessen our carbon footprint. In fact, these ways are so plentiful we do not even notice them in our day-to-day lives.
Chances are, nearly all of the products we use daily could be either swapped out or altered for a more environmentally conscious version. From bringing reusable bags to the grocery store to buying second-hand clothes and more - sit back and think about how you spend your time and if there are steps that could make that time more eco-friendly.
The Bite team likes to focus on improving daily necessities like personal hygiene. That is why we are so proud to offer our sustainable and effective Toothpaste Bits, as well as our plastic-free and compostable toothbrushes. In addition, we offer our newest product: 100 percent plastic-free, baking soda-free deodorant.
We want to offer an option that is healthier for you and our planet and make sure that you can feel ethically sound while using our products. After all, when brushing your teeth, you should be focused on reaching your molars, not on whether your toothpaste provider is actively contributing to the 380 million tons of plastic dumped in our oceans every year.
But enough about toothpaste, we are here to talk about one of its equally necessary peers in the world of hygiene: deodorant.
Is There Plastic In Typical Deodorant?
Like many products on the market today, plastic is nearly everywhere. Whether you look at the packaging, the means of production, or the product itself, it is clear to see that these products would not be what they are without the dangerous and chronic overutilization of environment-harming plastics.
That is why it is so important to actively seek out deodorants that blaze a new trail, one that shows plastic is not a necessary part of a product.
Think about the classic deodorants you grew up using, or possibly the ones you still use today. By the way, if you still use conventional deodorants, do not feel bad.
Just picture walking through the cluttered and busy aisles of a drug store. If you are seeing what I’m seeing, each deodorant option looks nearly identical to the last. It is a sea of plastic-encased deodorants, far from the zero-waste options that could become emblematic of a more sustainable future.
Picking up a plastic-free deodorant stick in these stores is often like trying to find a needle in a haystack, but you don’t even know what the needle looks like. Everything is so similar without offering sustainable benefits to you or the environment.
These products advertise natural scents like vanilla, coconuts, lavender, and more, without coming anywhere close to the real versions of those natural substances. Instead, they are chock full of parabens, aluminum, and other fillers.
As it currently stands, most mainstream deodorants on the market come with an abundance of plastic. The prominence of these options sends a message that this is the only way to have a functional, effective product.
Luckily perception is not reality, and in fact, there are so many ways to create a deodorant that will deodorize everything you want it to, without doing harm to the environment in the process.
One of the most readily apparent examples of overuse of plastic in deodorants comes from their applicators. These are almost always made entirely of plastic, and this amount of cheap, non-biodegradable plastic often hides a relatively small amount of actual product. In so many ways, there is a total lack of transparency.
Another issue with plastic applicators and the other many small plastic components that make up a tube of deodorant is that it can be confusing which types of plastic can be recycled or not.
This might not seem like too big of a deal, but in reality, putting a type of plastic that cannot be recycled in with recycling can cause a lot of damage. It can either cost a great deal of money to sort out or can prevent entire loads from being recycled properly.
It is not common for manufacturers to deliberately comment on their recycling practices or the recyclability of the materials used, so it is important to do your own research about the products you purchase.
So as long as you know how to sustainably and adequately dispose of your deodorant packaging, you should be good, right? Well, it’s not necessarily that simple. This added complication manifests in the form of pesky microplastics.
Microplastics are tiny pieces of plastic that cannot be broken down further. These pieces have the potential to do immense harm to both our oceans and wildlife, making them a real cause for alarm.
Many products that we use for hygiene and beauty contain microplastics and microbeads (a formerly popular exfoliating agent made of small plastic balls). This means that even properly recycled plastics are not necessarily safe, because the formula itself, which does not get recycled, contains plastic. The best option is to go with an entirely plastic-free deodorant.
Why Is It Important To Stay Plastic-Free?
There are so many reasons in our modern era that it is crucial to stay plastic-free, but the main one is that our over-use of plastic directly contributes to the destruction of our oceans and environment as a whole.
On the bright side, this does mean that we have a way to make a tangible difference in how we affect our planet, and that is by cutting down on our use of plastics.
What Makes Bite’s Plastic-Free Deodorant So Special?
Bite’s Plastic-Free deodorant is not only unique in terms of what it doesn’t contain, but possibly even more so for what it does. Yes, the packaging is completely reusable and free of plastics. And yes, the deodorant itself is free of aluminum, palm oil, and baking soda, but it is about more than that.
The packaging is sustainable, refills are entirely compostable, and the deodorant is both vegan and cruelty-free.
Aluminum-Free, Baking Soda-Free, and Palm Oil-Free
We are beyond proud to say that our zero waste baking soda-free deodorants wick sweat on any skin type.
Those with sensitive skin, or those who simply prefer to be able to pronounce their ingredients, will be immensely comforted by the fact that our deodorant is made up of all-natural, aluminum-free ingredients.
We offer three distinct, natural scents in our deodorants. Whether you select Neroli, Rose Vert, or Santal, it is impossible to go wrong.
Vegan and Cruelty-Free Ingredients
Our deodorant uses shea butter to lock in moisture (not sweat) while locking out undesirable odors and bacteria. We also utilize coconut oil and more natural components to create eco-friendly deodorants that are responsible, sustainable, and most importantly, they really work.
Durable, Refillable Case
When you order Bite’s Plastic-Free Deodorant, you will receive 2 deodorant refills and one metal case and metal lid, making it an infinitely more environmentally friendly deodorant than its many plastic counterparts. You can also receive compostable refills that can be inserted right back into your applicator every four months.
Carbon Neutral Shipping
All Bite products are shipped with the intention to decrease our carbon emissions.
We utilize existing shipping routes. It’s essentially the public transportation of shipping. All of your items come to you right when you need them, but postal carriers do not have to go out of their way, greatly reducing our carbon footprint.
Does Plastic-Free Deodorant Really Work?
This is the big question, the one on everyone’s mind. And, honestly, we get it. The last thing you want is to realize your deodorant stopped working midway through the day, so allow us to assuage those fears once and for all. Yes, plastic-free deodorant really works!
Zinc ricinoleate is widely known for its tremendous odor absorbing capabilities, making it an ideal candidate to make up many natural deodorants. From powders to glass jars, to deodorant creams, to balms, this is a natural ingredient well worth using regardless of the package it comes in.
There are countless options for finding a healthier deodorant option, but thankfully an increasing amount of them are plastic-free.
Many of these plastic-free options also contain organic ingredients like rosemary, essential oils (tea tree oil, eucalyptus, bergamot, peppermint, lemon, grapefruit, orange, etc.), cocoa butter, and more.
Through knowing your body and what ingredients you prefer, finding the perfect plastic-free deodorant for you will be as easy as applying it.

Cryptocurrency and blockchain technology has been gaining a lot of attention in recent years, but for many, the concepts can be confusing and overwhelming. This step-by-step guide aims to provide a basic understanding of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology.
Step 1: Understanding Cryptocurrency
Cryptocurrency, also known as digital or virtual currency, is a form of money that exists solely in digital form. It uses cryptography to secure and verify transactions and control the creation of new units. Cryptocurrency operates independently of a central bank or government and can be exchanged for traditional currency on various online platforms.
Step 2: Understanding Blockchain
Blockchain technology is the backbone of most cryptocurrencies. It’s a decentralized digital ledger that records transactions across a network of computers. Each block in the chain contains many transactions; once a block is added, it cannot be altered. This makes blockchain extraordinarily secure and resistant to fraud.
Step 3: Decentralization
One of the key characteristics of blockchain and cryptocurrency is decentralization. This means no central authority controls the network or the transactions. Instead, transactions are recorded on a decentralized ledger and verified by a computer network, making the system more secure and resistant to fraud.
Step 4: Smart Contracts
Another critical aspect of blockchain technology is smart contracts. A smart contract is a self-executing contract with the terms of the agreement between buyer and seller being directly written into lines of code. Smart contracts allow for the automation of transactions and can be used in various industries, such as real estate and finance.
Step 5: Use Cases
Blockchain and cryptocurrency have the potential to change various industries. Some possible use cases include:
- Digital identity verification
- Supply chain management
- Remittances and cross-border payments
- Banking and Finance
- Internet of things
- E-voting systems
In conclusion, cryptocurrency and blockchain technology are complex concepts, but understanding the basics can give a good understanding of their potential impact on various industries. Cryptocurrency uses blockchain technology, which is a decentralized digital ledger, to secure and verify transactions, it operates independently of a central bank or government, and it has the potential to change the way we think about money and how we execute transactions.

BJain Homeopathic Omeo Renal Drops Online
INFORMATION ABOUT DISEASE:
Nephrolithiasis (kidney stones) is a disease affecting the urinary tract. Kidney stones are small deposits that build up in the kidneys, made of calcium, phosphate and other components of foods. Between 1% and 15% of people globally are affected by kidney stones at some point in their life. They have many causes and can affect any part of urinary tract ? from kidneys to urinary bladder. Oft en, stones form when the urine becomes concentrated, allowing minerals to crystallize and stick together. Risk factors include high urine calcium levels, obesity, certain foods, some medications, calcium supplements, hyperparathyroidism, gout and not drinking enough fluids.
The initial presentation is oft en with renal colic – severe pain caused by stone passage – triggered by movement of a stone from the renal pelvis into the ureter, which leads to ureteral spasm and possibly obstruction oft en associated with nausea and vomiting. Lower urinary tract symptoms such as dysuria, urgency, and frequency may occur once a stone enters the ureter. Treatments of renal stones include general management and medical management. General management include dietary measures such as limiting the consumption of food rich in animal protein, food having excessive oxalate (spinach & cabbage) and increasing the fluid intake.

I tried to access the FPS setting of the render settings in a shader node through a driver expression. The attempt was successful, but I got a warning and a tip saying:
WARNING: Driver expression may not work correctly
TIP: bpy.context is not safe for renderfarm usage
According to this thread the proper way to set the active scene is through
Therefor, I assumed, that the proper way to get the active scene would be through
bpy.context as well.
This warning however makes me feel like there is a more proper way to access scene data (like render settings) through drivers so they would also work in renderfarms.
So my question is: How do I properly access this kind of data in a driver expression?

Since announcing our new study on Inflammatory Bowel Disease, we’ve received questions not just about the study, but about the disease itself.
1. You have been diagnosed with Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis by a qualified physician.
2. Your willingness to submit a saliva sample for DNA testing and complete online surveys related to your condition.
3. You have access to the internet.
4. You are at least 6 years old (those under 18 require a parental consent to enroll).
5. You are not a current 23andMe customer.*
6. You reside in the United States.*If you are a current 23andMe customer, learn how you can participate here.
IBD – which includes both Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis – is often difficult to diagnose. The symptoms can sometimes be confused with other conditions.
The symptoms can also come and go making arriving at an accurate diagnosis very difficult.
Recently, Dr. Jennifer Choi, the Associate Director of UCLA’s Center for IBD, gave a detailed talk on the condition. Neither Dr. Choi nor the UCLA Center is involved with 23andMe’s study, but they are a great resource for information about the condition.
While the video of that presentation is long, and is sometimes graphic, Dr. Choi very clearly explains everything from the anatomy involved to the differences between Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis.
It’s a helpful primer both for those who have the condition and people who care about them, who are trying to understand what they are going through.
We’ve included the video below, but be forewarned that there are some graphic photos in the presentation that may be disturbing for some.

This was the first week being an Intern at Aeste. One of the tasks given this week was to learn about Git.
It’s a version control system primarily used to efficiently manage code in software development.
There are a lot features that makes Git a powerful management tool. We can ‘commit’ any change we’ve done
on a ‘branch’ we’re working on. Lots more Git features were tested on a sandbox Git repository
to further our understanding on how Git works. Furthermore, we learnt about how Git development is structured
in the company. That means whatever we’ll be working on in the weeks to come should follow a certain model such
as having a ‘develop’ branch that holds the latest development changes and a ‘feature’ branch which holds current development of new features that will eventually be merged into the develop branch.
Next, I was tasked to go through documentations to get familiar with the 32 bit family of Microchip PIC micro-controllers, the MPLAB-X IDE on which to develop applications for the PIC micro-controller and lastly MPLAB Harmony, a fully integrated Embedded Software Development Framework that provides software modules configurable through MHC (MPLAB Harmony Configurator), easing the development process by providing the the basic structure of code of complex projects involving different peripherals.
After going through the documentation for the Harmony Framework, I tested out the features of a development board called the PIC32 Ethernet Starter Kit. I wrote a simple application controlling the LED’s on the board via the switches. Moreover, I tested the Harmony framework with the TCP/IP stack in setting up an HTTP web server hosted on the internal flash of the PIC32. Once the IP address of the board has been set up, it was a matter of typing it in the web browser to view the web page hosted by the demonstration application. Upon examining the webpage, several functionalities can be observed such as real-time hardware control of LED’s and switches on board and the HTTP GET and POST methods for file uploading and form processing on the PIC32 HTTP server.
Lastly, I was tasked to learn and test the Harmony USB on the PIC32. However, after checking the documentation and
testing all the configuration files for the USB demonstration on the PIC32, I found that the USB demonstrations were not compatible for the Ethernet Starter Kit. Overall, the first week was great and I’m looking forward to the new challenges and things I’ll learn and contribute in the following weeks of my internship.

In a boost for firms using open banking, the FCA has published a policy statement seeking to remove identified barriers to continued growth, innovation and competition in the payments and e-money sectors. The FCA also hopes that it will increase resiliency and improve customer protection standards.
On 29 November 2021, the FCA published a policy statement on its Regulatory Technical Standards on Strong Customer Authentication and Secure Communication (SCA-RTS), its approach to payment services and e-money (the Approach Document) and its Perimeter Guidance Manual (PERG).
A key development is the new ‘Article 10A’ exemption. Currently, customers are required to re-authenticate every 90 days with their account servicing payment service provider (ASPSP) when accessing their account information through a Third-Party Provider (TPP). The FCA’s view is that requiring strong customer authentication (SCA) every 90 days creates friction when using TPP services and increases the likelihood of customer attrition (some TPPs experiencing rates of around 20-40% at the 90 day mark when SCA is required). Instead, therefore, TPPs will only need to reconfirm customers’ consent (not SCA) every 90 days in an effort to reduce customer friction.
Other changes to the SCA-RTS include:
- requiring certain ASPSPs to provide dedicated interfaces to enable TPP access to customer account information for retail and SME payment accounts;
- amending requirements on providing interface technical specifications, testing interfaces and fallback interfaces by ASPSPs intended to let ASPSPs innovate and launch products and services more quickly; and
- allowing ASPSPs with a deemed authorisation under the Temporary Permissions Regime (TPR) to rely in the UK on an exemption from setting up a fallback interface granted by a home state competent authority located in the EU.
The FCA is also updating its Approach Document, namely to:
- clarify expectations of firms following questions from industry;
- enhance firms’ resilience through prudential risk management and safeguarding requirements;
- make general changes, such as to regulatory reporting requirements; and
- reflect onshoring changes to the regulations following EU withdrawal and the end of the transition period.
Finally, the FCA is also amending PERG to update guidance on certain exclusions from the Payment Services Regulations (PSRs) and Electronic Money Regulations (EMRs), including the application of the limited network and the electronic communications exclusions. These changes are intended to help industry identify when business activities fall within the scope of the PSRs and EMRs.
For further reference, the policy statement can be read in full here.

What is Prudent Asset Allocation?
Prudent Asset Allocation (“PAA”) is an overarching investment strategy that separates investors assets into two channels and manages the movement from one to the other in a way that maximizes the safety of the first channel and maximizes return in the second. In this way investors earn as much as is feasible without putting their wellbeing at risk.
Prudent Asset Allocation: The Preservative Component
The first channel is called the Preservative component and contains assets needed to fund present and short term future expenditures. Assets in the Preservative component are allocated to each of the next five years and used to fund ongoing expenses, planned purchases, emergencies and other spending in those years.
In the event that the Preservative component for one year is exhausted, “loans” can be taken from succeeding years. In this way, unexpected situations are immediately covered and the “loans” repaid by withdrawals from the Growth component when market conditions are favorable.
The Preservative component uses payment instruments and investments that can be converted into payment instruments with no penalties or delays.
Prudent Asset Allocation: Growth Component
The second channel is called the Growth component and maximizes investment return on assets that will not be needed in the short term. When the planned need to use the Growth component is within five years, a gradual shift is begun into the Conservative component.
The Growth component is invested in a diversified portfolio that can reasonably be expected to appreciate in value over the time until the assets are needed. Historical data shows that the worst broad equity markets (S&P 500) recover within five years. Investors can expect that unfavorable markets could last that long.
While highly speculative investments are not advised, there are no restrictions as to the types of assets that can be used. The keys to Growth investment selection are:
- A robust history of high returns
- Proven ability to recover from declines
- Diversified investments to avoid concentration risk
Prudent Asset Allocation Benefits
The key benefits of PAA are:
- A balance of Preservative and Growth components that is specific to investors current situation.
- Elimination of concerns of making ends meet.
- Elimination of fears of market ups and downs.
- Maximum return on long term assets.
- Continuously adapting to changes in personal situation and investment markets.
- Ability to always wait for market recovery before making withdrawals
Source of Confidence
Confidence in the securities markets is achieved by a clear understanding of what aspects and conditions merit confidence. The securities markets vary widely in the potential return, risks and the irrational relation between the two. It is therefore necessary to limit exposure to only the most predictable investments and the realistic threats.
This brief will limit its examination to investments with a proven history of reliability and address those risks that have a reasonable likelihood of repetition. While conjecture can lead to millions of possibilities, the boundaries are events that have occurred within the United States during the modern era.
Learning from Experience
The S&P 500 was selected as the model for this evaluation because it is the most credible index of the performance of major US equities and has sufficient history to reflect the best of times and the worst of times.
The actual experience since 1940 covers a wide range of conditions that have tested the predictable securities markets. The responses to these threats have been highly consistent and create the foundation of PAA to take maximum advantage of an enormous growth potential while avoiding the potential risks.
The Consistent Pattern
The investment returns of a $1,000 investment in the S&P 500 each decade since 1940 was examined separately and findings were that:
- Every decade, regardless of the events that occurred produced positive returns.
- Market declines were recovered within five years.
- The only investors that had negative returns are those who withdrew from the market before the market had recovered, that is “in the valleys”.
It is therefor evident that if investors did not withdraw during the valleys, no investor would suffer losses!
Three key requirements to avoid valley withdrawals are:
- Investor must have the confidence that the market will recover. This confidence can be developed from the decade by decade analysis presented in this brief.
- Investor must have an alternative source of funds until the market is recovered. This is achieved by preserving the funds needed to meet spending in investments that are not subject to fluctuations in value.
- Investor must be diligent to check if investments are in a valley and take steps to avoid the withdrawal.
Decade by Decade Performance
The following table shows the value of a $1,000 investment made at the start of each decade from 1940’s to 2010’s. In spite of major world and financial events, each decade had positive returns. Note that these results reflect the political, regulatory, economic and structural environment in the United States and uses a highly diversified investment portfolio with a limited number of holdings (S&P 500).
Ending Value of S&P 500 Investment of $1,000 Held for the Decade
Valleys of Performance
The following charts show the periods during which withdrawals would result in actual losses for investors. Withdrawals should be avoided until the valley ends. The start of the valley is indicated when the investment return for the previous year is negative. The end of the valley is indicated when the value of the investment recovers to the previous high point.
Notable Events of 1940s
- 1939 – 1945: World War II
- 1940: Investment Companies and Investment Advisers laws enacted.
Notable Events of 1950’s
- Post war boom
- Korean war
Notable Events of 1960’s
- 1963: Kennedy Assassination
- Viet Nam war
Notable Events of 1970’s
- 1973: Middle East Oil crisis
- Stagflation and double digit interest rates
Notable Events of 1980’s
- 1981: Lowered taxes and interest rates
- 1987: Market crash
Notable Events of 1990s
- 1990: The Internet is Born
- Fall of Berlin Wall and Soviet Union
Notable Events of 2000’s
- 2000: Tech Wreck & Dot Com Bubble
- 9/11 Attacks
- 2008: Financial Crisis
Notable Events of 2010s
- 2011: Occupy Wall Street protests
- Historically low interest rates and low inflation
The evidence from the entire modern era inspires caution and confidence. The prudent use of investments to protect and grow holdings requires two concurrent strategies:
- Preservative… for assets that are needed for short term expenditures. These assets are explicitly designed to maintain their value in good and bad economic times and as a consequence earn very low returns.
- Growth… for all remaining assets. These are held in securities that have proven long term records of returns that include downturns and recovery from those downturns.
Essential to the success of this prudent approach is ongoing forecasting of short term expenditures and a reasonable provision for unplanned needs. Forecasts are adjusted regularly to ensure that expenditures for at least five years are covered by a combination of expected income and Preservative assets.
Application of Experience
The PAA Worksheet is a tool that assists in the forecasting of expenditures and projects the adequacy of Growth assets to support the long term needs.
The modern era used in this brief is the period from 1940 to date during which the foundations of the economy and securities markets have been in place. These include the US Constitution, laws, regulations and business structures and practices.
For the period before 1957, a composite was used that reflected S&P performance, had the index existed.

If you have been looking for a way to sell your domain for the highest price, you can try using an online auction site like GoDaddy. Since the company is the biggest name on the Internet, it is sure to attract more interested buyers. However, you will have to put more effort into setting up the auction page and estimating the true value of your domain. This can be a very time-consuming process, but it pays off in the end when you get an unbelievable offer.
List for Sale
One of the easiest ways to sell your domain is to use GoDaddy's Sell My Domain feature. It allows you to list your domain for sale by creating a "For Sale" landing page on your website. It also provides tools to help you determine the estimated price for your domain.
To use the Sell My Domain feature, you must have an active membership with GoDaddy. If you don't have one yet, you can get one for $4.99/year. This will allow you to list your domains for sale in their database. Once your domain name is listed, it will be shown in search results on over 120 registrars and reseller websites. It has helped hundreds of thousands of names enter the domain marketplace.
Once you have a membership, you can choose from several listing options. There are three main types of listings: Offer/Counter Offer, Buy Now, and 7-Day Public Auction. In the Offer/Counter Offer format, a buyer can make an offer and you can accept or counter it. After the seven-day period, the offer expires and the winning bidder gets the domain.
When selling a domain, you must make sure that you price it right. This is the only way to get buyers. However, if you do not know what to price it at, you can just use a regular trade etiquette. Most of the domain marketplaces have an escrow service that secures the transaction and protects both you and the buyer. The escrow service will hold the funds until the domain has been successfully transferred.
When it comes to selling your domain names, one of the best ways to do this is to list them on auction sites like GoDaddy. These sites are well-known for their auction and listing options. If you are selling a high-value domain name, consider using a broker.
Afternic Transaction Assurance
Afternic Transaction Assurance is a process that guarantees the transfer of a domain from the selling registrar to the buying registrar. This process ensures that the money for the domain will reach the seller and that the domain will be delivered to the buyer as quickly as possible. The process involves commission fees and the transfer of the domain to the buyer.
If you have been looking for a way to sell your domain, then you've come to the right place. Flippa is an online marketplace that allows you to list your domains and attract interested buyers. You can choose to sell your domain through an auction, or you can list it as a classified ad. To get started, simply enter the name of your domain in the field provided. Flippa will then ask you how you want to sell it. The options include an auction, classified ad, or private sale. You can even select how long you want to sell your domain for.
Flippa is a decent marketplace for selling your domain names, and their filtering features are great for letting you find buyers. The platform also attracts a lot of traffic, and many buyers flock there each month. The process is also relatively simple, and there are special departments for financing, valuation, and legal help.
When you sell your domain name on Flippa, you'll want to make sure that your listing is visually appealing and contains a clear photo. The photo should be a screenshot of your site, free from watermarks. Moreover, make sure to respond to any buyer inquiries you receive. This will increase your chances of closing a deal. Remember, it may take time to find a buyer for your domain, so be patient.
Another popular marketplace is BrandBucket. If your domain name is unique, you might want to consider selling it on BrandBucket. This marketplace is designed specifically for domains with unique brandability. However, you can't list your domain name on this platform yourself - it has to be approved by a team. The website charges 30% commission on successful transactions. The other marketplaces usually charge between 10-20 percent.
NameSilo is an alternative to Godaddy when selling domains. The company offers an affiliate program and a reseller program. As a reseller, you'll earn between 3.5 and 7 percent of the sale price. NameSilo pays through PayPal and wire transfer, and offers payment plans. The site also lets you create sub-accounts for your clients, and you can even offer a $1 off coupon code.
The company has over 400 domain extensions and also offers web hosting and email services. It also has a website builder and WordPress integration, as well as discounts for bulk domain purchases. Another benefit of using NameSilo is their marketplace, which lets you buy and sell domain names. In addition, you can use NameSilo's advanced search tool to find domains that fit your business's needs. This tool lets you look up to 500 domains at a time, and it can also be used to import a list of domains in.csv or.txt format.
However, NameSilo lacks in some areas, such as onboarding. While it offers some additional options for setting up your domain and website, it doesn't provide sufficient details. Customers should be aware of what they're looking for in a company and choose one that matches their goals and needs. There are positive and negative reviews about NameSilo, but remember that you're buying domains, so trust is essential.
As mentioned above, GoDaddy has more than 20 million domains listed on its aftermarket platform. The company reports that domains were responsible for 10% of its total revenue and was its fastest-growing segment in terms of revenue growth. The company's overall revenue for the first quarter was $70.9 million, a 15.4% year-over-year increase. It also reported that its domain services division added 200,000 passive domain names to the aftermarket, spurring increased activity among domain investors.
When you're ready to sell your domain name, you can use eBay's Sell My Domain feature. eBay offers a variety of different options for you to sell your domain name. For instance, you can choose to list it as a "buy now" or a "sell later" listing. A "buy now" listing is not a traditional auction; instead, you tell buyers the price you want them to pay, and they can make their best offer at that price.
Regardless of which method you choose, it is important to have a safe payment method in place before you begin selling your domain name. Most selling platforms use escrow services to protect both parties. They will not release the funds to the buyer until the transaction is complete. If you have any questions or want to make sure the transaction goes smoothly, a reputable escrow service will handle everything for you.
Another option is to list your domain name on a domain auction site such as GoDaddy Auctions. These sites typically have the lowest registration fee and provide instant notification of changes. Additionally, you can negotiate with the seller before the auction ends. The downside to these services is that you must pay a commission, but the peace of mind you get is well worth it.
Choosing a reputable domain auction site is important. Choosing a reputable company will help you sell your domain for maximum profit. If you're selling a domain on eBay, you'll want to make sure you're being as specific as possible about the transfer terms. If the auction goes through smoothly, you should be able to push the domain to the winning bidder's account within 48 hours. Moreover, eBay offers a number of free tools for listing your domain, such as adding free photographs or screenshots of appraised value.

So you finally get to go to Bali? Of course you've seen stunning pictures of this magical island on Instagram. Ready to see all of the breathtaking spots for yourself? Here's everything you need to know about one of the best tours on the market!
Bali, baby! There are literally not enough happy words in the English language to describe how this island makes us feel. The culture? Perfect. The food? Perfect. The scenery and adventure waiting for you? Both perfect. You get the idea. Bali should be on every single person's bucketlist because there is really nowhere else like it. And if you get the chance to go? TAKE IT!
As an English-teaching volunteer with International Language Programs, you'll get several vacations that you and your group get to plan. If you're volunteering in Thailand, well Bali is just a six-hour flight away and literally our favorite place to spend one of those vacations. It's tropical, delicious, and full of the best and kindest people you'll ever meet.
Ready to have your own adventure volunteering abroad? Let's get started:
How To Apply
There is a surprising amount of stuff to do on this island, but insider's tip, we honestly don't recommend just going for the beaches. Sure, if it's been a long time no see for you and the beach, then stop by for a day or two. Here's a list of some of the best and worst beaches in Bali! But there are way better beaches in Thailand in our opinion, so we recommend enjoying more of the culture and adventure activities unique to Bali instead. One of the best places to do this is in Ubud! Here's some ideas for how to make the most of a couple of days in and around this cultural hub.
Of course you could plan an itinerary and hire a taxi driver to take you around to each spot. But there is nothing like having your own Balinese guide who picks you up from your AirBnb, tells you the history of the island, explains the culture (which is super unique), fills you in on the religion and sacred ceremonies of the island, shows you all of the most beautiful spots, and is basically a pro photographer too. Trust us, there is really nothing better.
Want to know how to get all of this in one day? Do the Bali Instagram Tour! Yes, that is its official name. Heads up, it isn't cheap, at least when compared to the cost of everything else on the island. But the $70 you'll spend per person is worth it! So here's the best place to book the tour with all of their information. And this is why it's a tour you cannot miss.
Everything You Need To Know About The Bali Instagram Tour:
- Basic Info
- Gates of Heaven
- Tirta Ganga Water Palace
- Tukad Cepung Waterfall
- Tegallalang Rice Terraces and Swing
This tour is an all day thing! We're talking 8-10 hours. Ours actually ended up being about 12, so just leave the rest of your evening open. The best thing about an organized tour is that you don't have to plan a thing! The price for this one includes:
A friendly, local tour guide.
Entrance fees for everywhere you go.
Transportation to and from your hotel or AirBnb from just about anywhere on the island.
A 10-minute ride on the famous Bali swing.
Make sure you bring your camera (duh!) and some snacks since lunch is not included. If you're lucky, you may get a tour guide who buys you fried bananas and local fruit. You'll also probably stop by a cutie place to get lunch, but you will have to pay for your own.
Also don't forget your sarong since you cannot go to the temples without one and that is half of the tour! You can still wear shorts, just make sure you have a sarong to wear over them and cover your legs. And wear a swimming suit under your clothes and shoes that can get wet since you'll be headed to a waterfall!
Gates of Heaven
We're pretty sure the name says it all? This gate represents the separation between the outside world and the safety of the temple. With an active volcano, Mount Agung, in the background (usually covered by clouds), this is one of the coolest, most memorable places you'll ever visit. Located at Pura Lempuyang, it's about a 2-hour drive from Ubud. The temple itself has incredible architecture, making this one of our favorite places in Bali.
If you're lucky, there will be a man there who uses a small mirror to get the perfect picture. He literally puts the mirror under the lens to make it look like a reflection pool — yep, there's not actually a reflection pool right there; it's all an illusion.
You won't need to worry about tipping him because your guide will do it for you.
Tirta Ganga Water Palace
This sacred area is a maze of lush gardens, trickling fountains, and fish ponds. It was completely destroyed by the eruption of Mount Agung in 1963, but has since been rebuilt and is more beautiful than ever.
Your guide will buy fish food so that you can feed the HUGE koi fish as you step across the stones in the large ponds. It's a pretty surreal experience and outside of the gates there are sometimes local Balinese people with snakes, bats, owls, and other pets for you to hold and take pictures with for a small fee.
Tukad Cepung Waterfall
This short hike is different than anything else you'll experience on the tour. With your guide, you will walk down hundreds of stone steps (PSA: Bali is so so full of steep stone steps, so be ready for your thighs to burn). They lead to a hidden pool below this beautiful waterfall that flows over the top of high rock walls.
The hike back up is quite the trek, but there's a cute little snack shack along the path so you can try some of the local favorites. The area is very lush and tropical, with a little river running along the trail. The pictures from the waterfall don't turn out as well as some of the photos from the rest of your day will, so this is a place to just soak in the breathtaking (literally) beauty of natural Bali.
Tegallalang Rice Terraces and Jungle Swing
Definitely the most photographed and iconic place in Bali! The time of year will affect whether or not the rice terraces are covered in green rice plants, but it's stunning no matter what. The location our guide took us to also included some delicious herbal tea tasting. Is it magical to sip on steaming pink and yellow drinks as the sun sets over huge coconut palm trees? Rhetorical question.
On this swing you can get as high as 250 feet above the ground which is thrilling to say the least (we'll just say we're grateful for the harness)! You'll get to try facing both forwards and backwards so you can see the 360 degree views the swing offers. We think it's worth trying even if you're a little afraid of heights. It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience for sure!

6 Benefits of Blending Arts, Sports & STEM at Summer Camp
Children’s brains are like little sponges, soaking up and retaining an amazing amount of knowledge! For parents, watching youngsters learn and grow proves rewarding and exciting. But in addition to gaining wisdom and intelligence, kids also need opportunities for physical activity and creative expression. Summer camp provides all three through an inclusive and blended arts, sports and STEM course experience.
At KidzToPros (KTP), we teach kids STEM concepts through games and activities like Minecraft and Wonder Robotics. We also expose and encourage their creative sides through performing or visual arts. Then, they’re up and moving, conditioning their bodies while playing sports like basketball and tennis. This kind of blended summer camp adventure benefits students academically, socially and physically.
Why STEM, Arts and Sports ALL Matter
Kids need balance. As parents, we know that scholastic achievement leads to a more promising future. However, we also want our children to understand the importance of being active and healthy, and appreciating the arts.
Playing sports benefits kids in numerous ways. During KTP summer camp, our students learn the importance of healthy bodies and minds. Staying active at summer camp allows them to direct their energy in appropriate ways, while having fun and learning important concepts.
At KTP camps, we recognize the importance of balancing different interests. We know that learners who incorporate knowledge, information, physical activity and artistic expression into their daily lives usually become more well-rounded and educated adults who mesh well with the world around them.
That’s why a summer camp experience that blends all these elements together takes center stage at KidzToPros’ camps. Blending STEM, sports and arts courses opens up new worlds to children who might otherwise never experience them.
How All 3 Work Together
Arts, sports and STEM work together in many different ways – and learning about one often helps students understand the other. For example, math and science, both STEM topics, feature prominently in sports. We learn about an athlete’s statistics, how far a soccer player can run in a certain amount of time, or how to calculate the trajectory of a basketball. Physics helps us understand how a player improves over time with the right training.
The same kind of connection holds true for arts and technology. For example, both math and music expression involve fractions. Theater set designers use math theories to measure, incorporate geometric shapes and apply spatial reasoning.
The arts allow young people to interpret, present and share STEM work with a broader audience. KTP campers use drawing, comedic performance or film production to broadly share the knowledge and talents they gain in robotics, programming, math or science. Wouldn’t a science fair with an art show or movie expo be amazing?
6 Benefits of Arts, Sports and STEM Summer Camps
Still curious how a blended summer camp experience benefits kids? Read on to find out!
1. Makes Children More Well-Rounded
When you expose your children to more than one discipline, it helps them better understand the world. They discover connections between subjects and learn more in the process. For instance, history teachers partner with language arts teachers because learning about different eras is richer when you bring in books written during that period. The same is true for arts, sports and STEM: Kids get a richer educational experience learning about many paths to knowledge, rather than just one.
2. Introduces Kids to All the Opportunities Around Them
Wouldn’t it be awful if kids thought they only had one option for a successful future? At KTP summer camps near you, kids learn about arts, science, technology, engineering, mathematics and sports. Let them try a bit of everything to find their true interests and passions. It makes high school and college so much more interesting, as they discover different definitions of success for themselves.
3. Helps Kids Find Their “Voice”
Exposure to the arts teaches children both verbal and non-verbal ways to communicate. It shows them how to better articulate their emotions using both their voice and body language. Kids also sing, draw, paint, write creatively or tell stories that show what they’re feeling.
4. Introduces Multiple Ways to Demonstrate Talent
A child who creates a robot that moves and talks is not any more or any less talented than a soccer player or artist. Let’s open up the definition of ‘talent’ to include every child who uses their abilities to create or do something new!
5. Builds Physical, Emotional and Intellectual Strengths
KidzToPros offers multiple STEM, arts and sports camps because every kid deserves to shine. When children run, play, work together, create and learn, they get stronger. Their muscles and bones grow, they express themselves appropriately, and they learn academic skills that help them earn higher grades in school. It’s a win all the way around!
6. Provides More Options for the Future
When a child discovers more pathways to success, it increases the odds they’ll take one. If it isn’t coding or programming, maybe it’s graphic arts or athletics. Experimentation helps them find what they’re good at and gets them started on a journey toward learning more, which also leads to scholarships, college and meaningful post-school lives.
Discover Blended Summer Camps Near You
Engaging kids on different levels to explore STEM, arts and sports together teaches the importance of a life involved in all three disciplines. KTP camps offer simultaneous lessons in all three, such as the importance of reasoning, teamwork and strategizing. When we give children a well-rounded summer camp experience, we open doors for them that they might not have found without us.
Discover all our sports, arts and STEM camps near you, and give your kiddos all the benefits of a blended summer camp experience!

Social skills can be one of the more complicated areas for SLPs to treat. It’s in the world of pragmatics that we find a lot of complicated, confusing, gray areas and often wrestle with what areas we need to focus on to help our students. I am going to share some tips for working on social skills and perspective taking with students.
This past school year we had a couple of autism evaluations for students in 5th-6th grade. At first glance, these students seemed like they had typical social skills, but they were struggling with peer interactions at school. We planned out a full evaluation where we assessed language skills and pragmatics in a variety of ways. One of the areas we decided to focus on with our students was in the area of perspective taking.
Often times our students with social disorders get really good at learning the “rules” for politeness, basic interactions, greetings, etc., but there are so many more underlying skills that need practice, too. One of these areas is perspective taking.
I look at perspective taking as two different, but similar, skills: being able to see things from another person’s perspective, and being able to look for different possible scenarios in a situation. Allow me to explain…
When looking at a scene playing out in front of us, it’s easy to jump to one conclusion and go with it. Looking at the photo below, you might initially think, wow, he’s giving her a car! But what else could be happening? Maybe he’s letting her drive for the very first time…maybe it’s her older brother letting his sister borrow his car. Sometimes our students need practice looking at situations with different perspectives.
To practice this skill, I like recommend using real photos, or even short video clips. Try to find realistic situations that your student might be able to relate to in some way.
Help students practice thinking about who the people in the photo are and how they could be related. Start with the obvious and then build from there. Look at what is happening in the photo. What could each person be thinking. Look for clues in facial expressions and posture.
I have a social skills and perspective taking resource that I created to help with this. This resource includes 30 different real photo scenarios. Discussion questions are also included to help students talk through different ideas while looking at each photo.
Here are some files you can use for teaching perspective taking.

Early diagnosis of cancer improves outcomes by starting treatment at the earliest possible stage when treatment is most likely to be successful. An important step in early diagnosis is spotting changes in your body and bringing them to the attention of your doctor so the reason for the changes can be identified. Self-exams play an important role in helping you spot changes. A good place to start is with your skin.
When caught early, skin cancer is highly curable. The best way to recognize changes to your skin is to examine yourself head-to-toe every month.
What to look for:
• A new growth or an existing growth that changes in size and appears pearly, transparent, tan, brown, black, or multicoloured
• A mole, birthmark, or brown spot that gets larger than a pencil eraser, becomes thicker, or changes in texture or colour
• A spot or sore that continues to itch, hurt, bleed, crust, or scab
• An open sore that does not heal within three weeks
How perform a skin self-exam:
• Inspect your face, especially your nose, mouth, and the front and back of your ears. Use mirrors to get a clear view.
• Thoroughly inspect your scalp. Use a blow dryer to separate your hair and expose every section of your scalp so you can view it with a mirror. It may be easier if you can get a family member or friend to help.
• Scan your hands and arms. Look at your palms, the back of your hands, and between your fingers. Continue up your wrists and arms, and don’t forget your underarms.
• Check your torso. Start with your neck and move down to your chest, including the undersides of your breasts, then your abdomen.
• Inspect your back. Stand with your back to a full-length mirror and hold a hand mirror, moving it as needed so you can view your whole back, including your neck, shoulders, upper back, lower back, and buttocks.
• Examine your genitals using a hand mirror.
• Scan your legs, front and back, using a hand mirror where necessary. Start at your thighs, move down your shins to your ankles, and finish with your feet, including the soles and your toes.
There is some debate about the value of breast self-exams in detecting breast cancer early when treatment has the best chance of being successful. While some healthcare professionals question the value of these exams, many physicians and health-related organizations firmly believe that breast self-exams are an important screening tool, especially when used in combination with regular physical exams by a doctor, mammograms, and sometimes ultrasound or an MRI.
What to look for:
• A change in size, colour, or shape of the breast
• Any lump, swelling, or distortion
• Breasts that are unevenly shaped
• Dimpling, puckering, or bulging skin
• Redness, soreness, or rash
• A nipple that has changed position or turned inward instead of sticking out
• Signs of fluid coming out of one or both nipples
How to perform a breast self-exam:
• Begin by standing in front of a mirror with your shoulders straight and your hands on your hips, and inspect your breasts carefully, turning from side to side so you can see all areas of your breasts. Alternatively, you can perform the exam while lying down using a hand mirror. If you do it lying down, your breast tissue will spread out and become thinner, making it easier to feel what’s below the skin. Another option is to do it in the shower with your breasts lathered, making it easier for your fingers to glide smoothly across your skin.
• Using the pads of your fingers, not your finger tips, examine your left breast with your right hand and your right breast with your left hand. Keeping your fingers flat and together, use a circular motion to feel for anything unusual. Cover the whole breast area from your collarbone to the top of your abdomen and from your armpit to your cleavage.
A testicular self-exam is a simple pain-free test that helps a male become familiar with his testicles so he will be able to notice any changes.
What to look for:
• A lump
• Pain or swelling in the scrotum
• Any change in size, shape, tenderness, or sensation
• A soft collection of thin tubes above the testicles
• A testicle that you cannot feel because it has not properly descended into the scrotum
How to perform a testicular self-exam:
• This test is best performed standing, either during or just after a shower when the scrotal skin is warm and relaxed.
• Gently feel the scrotal sac to locate the testicles.
• Using one hand to stabilize the testicle, use the fingers and thumb of the other hand to firmly but gently feel the entire surface of the testicle.
• Repeat the procedure on the other testicle.
The next step
Self-exams are just the first step in the early diagnosis of any health problem. If you notice anything unusual or anything that concerns you, see your doctor for further testing to identify the cause of the issue. That way, if there is a problem, it can be addressed at a stage when treatment is most likely to be successful.

For over a century, McMurray Hatchery has remained dedicated to preserving rare and exotic poultry breeds. Today we carry over 120 breeds of chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, guineas, peafowl, pheasants and other rare and exotic birds.
As part of our dedication to the preservation of these breeds, we are excited to announce that this year we are donating 10% of the proceeds from sales on all Heritage Breed day-old baby chicks for the week of May 19th to The Livestock Conservancy as part of International Heritage Breeds Week (May 19-25, 2019).
“We appreciate the overwhelming response to those who purchased and participated in preserving our Heritage Breeds, specifically this past week. Because of your generosity, we are thrilled to announce our donation of $5,141 to The Livestock Conservancy. This donation will help further the work the Conservancy does to track vulnerable livestock and poultry populations, increase awareness about rare breeds, and share with people how the breeds can fit into their particular farms, homesteads, or backyards,” says McMurray Hatchery Vice President, Thomas Watkins.
“We are grateful for this donation from our long-time friends at Murray McMurray Hatchery, would like to thank everyone at McMurray Hatchery and the customers who purchased chicks during International Heritage Breeds Week. Nearly half of the breeds on The Livestock Conservancy’s priority list are poultry and waterfowl, which makes Murray McMurray an important partner in our conservation efforts. These funds, along with new heritage breed flocks being established from the birds McMurray sells, will help The Livestock Conservancy carry out our mission to protect endangered breeds from extinction,” says Livestock Conservancy Executive Director, Dr. Alison Martin.
Though International Heritage Breeds Week has ended, the fight to end the extinction of these Heritage Breeds has not. Join our efforts in preserving these endangered breeds by participating in the discussion (#HeritageBreeds), starting your own flock of Heritage Breeds available from McMurray Hatchery or donating to livestock conservation organizations like The Livestock Conservancy. If you have questions about a breed, or need help placing an order, call our offices at 800-456-3280.
The Livestock Conservancy is America’s leading organization working to protect over 150 heritage breeds of livestock and poultry from extinction. Included are donkeys, cattle, goats, horses, sheep, pigs, rabbits, chickens, ducks, geese and turkeys. Founded in 1977, The Conservancy is the pioneer organization in the U.S. working to conserve historic breeds and genetic diversity in livestock. The Livestock Conservancy’s mission is “to protect endangered livestock and poultry breeds from extinction.”
Why are domestic breed of livestock and poultry in danger of extinction?
Modern agriculture and food production favors the use of a few highly specialized breeds selected for maximum output in intensively controlled environments. Many traditional breeds do not excel under these conditions, causing their popularity to decrease and leaving them faced with extinction. Although these breeds do not fit today’s mainstream model of agriculture, they are exquisitely suited for backyards and small to medium-sized farms, and their genetics are valuable to all of agriculture.
Why is genetic diversity important?
Like all ecological systems, agriculture depends on genetic diversity to adapt to an ever-changing environment. Genetic diversity in domestic animals is revealed in distinct breeds, each with different characteristics and uses.
Traditional, historic breeds retain essential attributes for survival and self-sufficiency – fertility, foraging ability, longevity, maternal instincts, ability to mate naturally, and resistance to disease and parasites. As agriculture changes, this genetic diversity may be needed for a broad range of uses and opportunities. Once lost, genetic diversity is gone forever.

World Children’s Day was first established in 1954 as Universal Children’s Day. It is celebrated on 20 November each year to promote international togetherness, awareness among children worldwide, and improve children’s welfare
According to the United Nations, World Children’s Day offers us an opportunity to advocate promote and celebrate children’s rights. This, therefore, translates to dialogue and actions that build a better world for children.
Essentially, World Children’s Day is UNICEF’s annual day of action for children, by children. On this day children and young people are raising their voices on issues that matter to their generation and calling for adults to create a better future.
This day is coordinated by the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) which works in promoting children’s welfare. This year’s theme is a better future for every child and children across the globe will reimagine a better future for themselves and all.
There is no better way in securing a country’s future than to invest in its children. Millions of children globally are living without basic needs and are therefore the most affected due to their vulnerability.
According to Their World Organization many children are missing out on basic health services, education and protection. This is simply because they were born into poverty or because of their ethnicity, religion or race.
It adds that COVID-19 has widened this inequality gap and the social, economic and health impacts of the pandemic will reverberate for years to come, threatening child rights.
As we celebrate this day, it is good to note that this day is when theUnited Nations adopted the Convention on the Rights of the Child which states that children:
- Have the right to an education
- Must be treated with dignity and respect
- Should be cared for, allowed to develop and to be part of their communities
- Have the right to express their own opinions and take part in decisions that affect them
- Have the right to be protected against violence and discrimination
What do we need to do?
We all have a role to play in ensuring that we secure the rights of children
- As a parent, we are called upon to educate children on their rights as education starts at home
- Businesses are required to pull together to achieve sustainable development goals and help children thrive and fulfill their potential
- For young people, we are called upon to raise our voices at every opportunity on various platforms.
Over the years, MYDAWA has been at the forefront of advocating for children’s rights through its products and services. MYDAWA has ensured that it provides quality access to basic medical care to families.
On this day we encourage every member of society to advocate, promote and celebrate the rights of children. They can do so by coming up with solutions on how to create a better world for the children.0

The easiest way to test your logo design is to create a logo in black and white. You really need to ensure that your logo is as easy to understand in black and white, as it is in color. By designing your logo in black and white, you are maximizing your logos potential so that it can be used anywhere, in any medium; for business cards, invoices, or even blurry-old fax reports! The color can come later!
I often feel that a logo is spoiled by overuse of color and unnecessary detail (I especially believe that color gradients should NEVER be used in logo design)
The following logo examples are proof of the power of simplicity and the power of black and white. These designs should inspire you to think in simple, overcomplicated, elegant design terms:
These logos are proof that your logo design should work as (or even more) effectively in black and white as it does in color. Test it out for yourself; if your logo doesn’t communicate an idea in black and white, chances are, it will be just as ineffective in color.

We debunk the most common myths and misconceptions about the flu vaccine with Dr. Aaron Beck
- Can a flu shot actually give you the flu?
- Do you need to get a flu shot every year?
- Should infants get a flu vaccine?
[2 MIN READ]
If it’s time to start plucking the turkey and decking the halls, it’s time to get your flu shot. Flu season is officially here, according to the Centers for Disease Control. By now, almost everyone knows the tried-and-true way to avoid the congestion, headache, sore muscles, and cough that accompany this serious disease is an annual flu shot. So why doesn’t everyone get one?
Dr. Aaron Beck, a family practice physician at Providence Medical Group takes a look at the most common flu myths and misconceptions and explains the truth behind the fiction.
It's too late to get a flu shot - the flu season has already passed.
FACT: "We usually give flu vaccines through April or May. That may seem late, but we've had late flu seasons in the last two years of monitoring. If you have the vaccine any time during the flu season, it can help. The goal is that the vaccine will reduce the symptoms even if you do catch it," said Dr. Beck.
The flu vaccine will make me sick.
FACT: “The flu vaccine can't infect you with actual flu illness. This is because flu shots given by injection have either been killed or weakened. I do occasionally see some folks who have mild symptoms of body ache which I suspect may simply be their bodies responding to the vaccine. Any aching is typically short-lived and very mild,” said Dr. Beck.
I should not get the flu vaccine when I am sick.
FACT: Doctors recommend that you recover from any acute or short-term illness prior to receiving the flu vaccine. This allows your immune system to focus its attention on the vaccine and not on fighting another illness.
Babies six months or younger can’t receive the flu vaccine.
FACT: “I agree. Flu vaccines are most effective when given on schedule, starting six months after birth. It’s critical, then, that if you spend time around infants that you receive a vaccine to prevent against influenza. We call this ‘cocooning.’ Cocooning protects an infant by lessening the chance that the baby will be exposed to the flu virus by his or her caregivers,” said Dr. Beck
Every person who gets a flu shot helps keep their community healthy.
FACT: The flu vaccine doesn’t just protect you; it helps protect the people around you by hindering the spread of the illness.
“Influenza is a potentially serious disease! Although many individuals can mount a successful counter attack, there are many individuals—specifically children, people with long-term disease, and seniors—who have great difficulty responding well,” said Dr. Beck.
Healthy people don’t need the vaccine.
FACT: Even healthy people can get sick from influenza. It is an aggressive and potentially serious disease.
“The flu is one of those nasty diseases that consistently surprises me in the clinic with how ferocious it can be,” said Dr. Beck.
You don’t need the flu vaccine every year.
FACT: The virus changes its makeup every season, so a new shot is needed every year to protect against the new virus.
The flu vaccine starts to work immediately.
FACT: It takes about two weeks for the vaccine to work well so it is wise to get it prior to when we actually see the virus circulate in our community. Get it in October or early November.
Children may need more than one vaccination.
FACT: Children getting a flu vaccine for the first time should receive two doses given at least four weeks apart.
Don’t let myths and misconceptions prevent you from getting the care you need. Flu shots are a proven way to prevent the flu and the toll it takes on your health.

Although procedures are not required any longer, they are still frequently used as a way to describe how a company operates. This makes a lot of sense when it comes to quality but can be significantly harder when it comes to procedures in safety management. In the end, working safely is more about culture and mindset than it is about writing down how to do things safely.
As we touched upon a couple of times before, safety has a lot to do with culture and how the company perceives safety and working safely. Writing these things down doesn’t really help. People need to be trained and made aware of the values of the organization when it comes to safety. Simply creating a safety manual isn’t the way to make it work. The safety culture needs to be in the veins of the organization, and everybody needs to breathe it.
Procedures and Manuals
Writing down the safety procedures and manuals is key as a means to hold knowledge. These documents describe how the organization perceives safety and how important it is everybody operates with a safety-first mentality. However, they are rather worthless when it comes to sharing information. Most of these documents are written by people behind desks, while the most risks are with the people in the operations. These documents are written with the best intentions and do have a critical role, but they should never be used as the only way to communicate safely with the people in the field. You simply cannot read a 6-page document every time you start working.
Better Ways to Communicate
Although the procedures are important documents, the organization needs other means to communicate safety protocols and values. People in the field and shop aren’t going to read these pages of text before they go to work.
Pictograms are a great way to communicate. They are easy to understand regardless of the language you speak. Sometimes they do need a little explanation along with them but that is limited. Pictograms can be stuck around the shop to remind people, for example, what kind of PPE they need to have for a certain job.
When there is more to communicate, such as values or more elaborate procedures, videos can come in handy. The videos allow for very clear and easy-to-understand simplification of what is written down in a document. A video can be used to communicate the safety values of the organization or simply show how someone needs to lift something heavy.
Although this is a form of textual communication, a memo can do the job as well. These are, most of the time, a short description of what is going on. They are like an extract of the document to make it simple and quick to understand. Sometimes memo’s even come with easy-to-understand pictures.

As the year 2022 draws to a close and the new year begins, let us reminisce the famous song by Bing Crosby titled Let’s Start the New Year Right which has the words,
“Let’s watch the old year die
With a fond goodbye
And let’s keep our hopes as high
As a kite.”
The year 2022, would have been a year full of success or a year with many disasters or it even could have been a mixture of both good and bad. However, let us forget all that happened and put the past behind and focus on this New Year which has dawned upon us.
Here are 10 tips to start the new year right and make it a success by maintaining it throughout the year. (https://www.zazzle.com/ideas/lifestyle/how-to-start-the-new-year-off-right)
- Journal every morning and night.
- Organize your living space.
- Meditate and improve your sleep schedule.
- Limit your time on social media.
- Pick up a new hobby or activity.
- Cook something new once a week.
- Create a workout plan.
- Drink more water.
- Reconnect with old friends.
- Visit your family more.
- Meet new people.
- Try to learn something new every day.
- Read more books.
- Express your feelings to family and friends.
- Plant more trees and live with nature.
May this New Year be a year full of success, blessings, and hope!
Extending warmest wishes to everyone for an outstanding and amazing 2023. The famous Scottish song ‘Auld Lang Syne’ which is sung all around the English-speaking world gives us a succinct message on what our thoughts should be in the New Year.
“Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And the days of auld lang syne?
For auld lang syne, my dear
For auld lang syne
We’ll drink a cup of kindness yet
For the sake of auld lang syne“
The clear English translation for the above so-called Scottish Gaelic lyrics are as follows,
“Should Old acquaintance be forgot,
and never thought upon;
The flames of Love extinguished,
and fully past and gone:
Is thy sweet Heart now grown so cold,
that loving Breast of thine;
That thou canst never once reflect
On long past times?“
May a rising year shine upon you the rays of success and a joyous reality where dreams come true.

Today, we will be exploring the world of carding a bit and following the path of a kid on his way to becoming a full-fledged carder. I spent about an hour on the basics of the investigation.
The tools I used for this post include:
I started by jumping into OIMonitor and looking at some of the projects that are pointed at credit cards and other types of financial fraud.
This site will do:
In this exercise, I decided to target the newer guys to the forum as their operational security would be a bit lower.
In the screenshot above, we can observe we’ve got a guy looking to move some cash. He’s obviously new to this scene, so we will probably find mistakes easily. There are a number of approaches we can take here, but I’m going to start by running his alias through SocialNet as it looks to be somewhat legitimate.
Great! I’ve found a number of profiles with that alias, including a few that are older. Next, I’m going to try to verify that the accounts we see here are actually the guy from the forums. My first stop is location.
Interesting, I’ve found that the address linked to his Skype is in Canada. He said he was in Canada in the post, so this is good news. It’s very possible someone could be impersonating him, so let’s follow the white rabbit and see if we can connect him to these profiles.
To expand the search, I’m using some features of SocialNet. First, I’m utilizing his alias and expanding that into a number of email addresses. I’ve discovered a ProtonMail account. This isn’t indicative of our target being evil, but it’s common that people who value privacy tend to have ProtonMail accounts.
Next, I’m going to investigate the content of these accounts. While digging around, I’ve determined this guy likes video games and has been online since he was young. He has a large number of followers on Instagram, but most importantly, he’s left his email on his Twitch account.
This is great news. After putting the email into SocialNet, we see interesting connections showing that this is indeed our target’s Skype and Twitch account, along with a new alias. Most important of all, I’ve uncovered an actual social networking profile.
This is a much better picture of our target. We’ve found a second Skype with the same city, as well as learned about a few more email addresses. Now, it’s time to dig into the social network and determine if this truly is our target.
This is what my Maltego graph looks like after a few minutes of investigation.
What have I learned?
- I’ve mapped his family.
- I’ve mapped his friends from school.
- I’ve mapped his girlfriend of 5 years.
- I know his mom’s address (and probably his).
- I know what he likes (sketchy things).
- I know he was in some TV commercials.
But most importantly, I’ve found a pretty solid indicator that this guy is the person we are looking for. He’s the admin of a group about “hacking” with this familiar face/moniker as the banner:
Now, it’s important to understand this doesn’t 100% prove this IS the guy in the carding forum. It does give us some very strong indicators that he’s our guy. With some more investigation and time (more than an hour), I’m sure we can build a wonderful case around this and possibly stop someone from stumbling into a world that will take them down paths they should not be walking.

I do not allow people to use Telnet on servers that I manage, because usernames and passwords are transmitted over the network as clear text. As concerned about security as people are, I am surprised at peoples’ insistence on using FTP. FTP, a network protocol that also transmits password information as clear text, continues to be widely used. Problems arise in the use of FTP when firewalls are set up between clients and servers. For example, giving clients the option to use either active or passive modes creates more headaches for network administrators who may already have configured FTP servers to listen on specific ports that firewalls are configured to expose. Even more problems are apparent when trying to use FTP over a tunnel.
FTP is broken. Stop using it and adopt secure file transfers with SFTP. FileZilla is an open source SFTP client for Microsoft Windows. Other graphical SFTP clients that support other operating systems are also available.

Diary management is an art of juggling people and priorities, relying on quick communication across a spread of people. Remote working can make diary management harder – so here are some crucial solutions to help you navigate around the challenges.
Challenge: handling multiple meeting requests efficiently
People who manage diaries must sit down with their managers on a regular basis to go through a myriad of meeting requests and other priorities. It is therefore essential to find an efficient alternative to physically doing this while working remotely. Firstly, create a list of meeting requests and other items for the diary in a document you both have live access to – a Google Doc or similar is ideal for this. Outline items in date order and add to it over time, then organise a regular conference call with your manager to go through everything. In the meantime, have a standard line you use to reply to everyone requesting meetings, which states when you are next due to discuss all outstanding diary issues.
Challenge: liaising with stakeholders
Getting your manager to agree to regular catch-ups specifically about diary items is the first hurdle. Next is efficiently communicating with everyone else who is requesting your manager’s time. This would usually rely on quick conversations with stakeholders in the office, as well as phone and email communication. It’s crucial to find other efficient mechanisms for communicating with people. Firstly, use tools such as Doodle polls to quickly identify a date and time all participants are available. For communicating with internal stakeholders, tap into technology already available within your company, such as live chat in Microsoft Teams. If there are PAs, EAs and individuals you’re in touch with regularly about your manager’s diary, ask them if it’s ok to call or text them to ask quick questions about availability.
Challenge: ensuring all participants have access to the right technology
Diary management while remote working also brings logistical questions about how meeting participants themselves will communicate when the event comes around. This takes some planning, so decide on your preferred medium as a company and state this clearly as soon as you send out meeting requests. For example, if you use Zoom or Microsoft Teams, send out the meeting link and joining instructions along with the calendar invite. Remember that people will be working from different computers and operating systems – so provide a little extra information about how participants can put all the correct technology in place ahead of the scheduled meeting. Send out reminders in the days leading up to the event too. And finally, standardise how recurring meetings will be run remotely and which technology they will use – then get the information in the diaries of all relevant parties for the next few months.
Challenge: making time for work as well as communicating
When teams work remotely, the number of calls and video conferences increases rapidly. While this is crucial, it’s also important to ensure the right balance of time is left for doing some focused work. There is also a temptation to work longer hours and be available for an extended period while working remotely – and while your manager may be willing to do this sometimes – it is important to use diary management to separate work time from family time. A good way of doing this is to use colour codes within the diary – distinguishing calls and video conferences, blocks of time for specific pieces of work, and family commitments. Keep an overview of these overarching colour codes to achieve a well-balanced diary.
Diary management for teams who are remote working requires a different way of thinking and making use of new ideas and tools. But efficiency, remote working and diary management can go hand-in-hand if you focus on these key areas.

Passover is, no doubt, one of the most important events in the dynamic ecosystem of Judaism. If we talk about the major Jewish holidays, Passover is indisputably one of them. Well, this event generally occurs during the spring and people associated with this Judaism culture observe this event on the day of 15 as per the Jewish Calendar. This is also Hebrew Calendar. Passover is considered as a major festival among the Three Pilgrimage Festivals.
There are as many festivals as there are mosquitoes after a rain.Kent Jones
The other two festivals are Sukkot and Shavuot. Jews in the Israeli Land observe this event for 7 days. But, if we see the matter from the perspective of yom tov sheni that is one of the major concepts or thoughts in halakha, we will get to know that Jews across the globe also celebrate this day for eight days. However, it is completely based on the Diaspora that has a close association with the concept of the fundamentals of yom tov sheni. It is also known as yom tov sheni shel galuyot.
Well, as per the Bible, we get a concrete meaning of Passover. It actually indicates the Exodus of the Israeli children from the ecosystem of Egyptian slavery. Well, it was in the last phase of ten plagues when God actually disregarded the abodes of the Israelites. It is the time when Passover sacrifice took place. People on the first night of Passover eat the Passover lamb with matzo and herbs. Passover lamb is also called Passover Sacrifice.
If we talk about the rituals in the ecosystem of Judaism, we must talk about the Passover Seder. It is the most extensively celebrated ritual. It actually indicates the beginning of the Passover in Judaism or Jewish Holidays. People associated with this culture observe this day on the day of 15 as per the Hebrew calendar. Unlike others, Hebrew day generally starts at the sunset. The day occurs in the last phase of March as per the Gregorian calendar. The duration of Passover Seder is seven days in the Israeli land and if we talk about the duration of this festival outside the Israeli land, people generally observe it for 8 days. Talking about the Seder, it is a kind of storytelling ritual that is mainly performed by a specific community. They tell the story regarding the expulsion of the Israelites from Egyptian slavery.
Origin Of Passover
It is very important to know the origin of Passover. People associated with this culture believe that this Passover derived from the idea of the apotropaic rite and it has no relation with the Exodus. Anyway, if we talk about the apotropaic rite, it actually ensures the protection of families. It is a kind of ceremonial that is observed within a clan. Hyssop that is a kind of shrub is added to the blood of slaughtered sheep. It purifies the blood and then, they sprinkle it on the door and lintels in order to ensure that demons could not enter.
Know More About This Event
In Judaism, Passover is called Pesach whereas, in Hebrew, they call it Pesah. As per the Hebrew Calendar, it started on the day of 15 as per the Nisan month and ends on the 22nd. However, it actually ends on the 21st in the lands of Israel. During these seven or eight days, they do not eat any leavened food such as bread or any kind of mixture. They only go with unleavened foods such as matzo.
It indicates the sufferings of Hebrews. Apart from this, it indicated the haste with which the Hebrews were left in Egypt during the time of Exodus.

Painting and rigging a Bark or any miniature ship can be a daunting task, especially for beginners or those with limited painting experience. However, this painting guide offers a simple and time-efficient approach to achieving a respectable tabletop standard using minimal supplies. It is possible to complete a ship project in a single sitting, making it an accessible option for those looking to whip up a ship in an evening
Ships are a huge part of Blood & Plunder but they can be an intimidating hobby project, especially if you’re new to miniature gaming or don’t have a lot of painting experience. With resin hulls and wood and elastic rigging pieces, they aren’t your standard Games Workshop gaming miniature.
This painting guide is my attempt at painting up a ship at a respectable tabletop standard with minimal paints, equipment and time spent on the project. I did the entire project in one sitting and while that’s not a great way to do it, I wanted to see if it was possible. It is much better to let glue and coats of paint dry for much longer than I allowed here, but if you want to whip up a ship in an evening with only a handful of paints, it is possible!
I’m using (nearly exclusively) Citadel Contrast Paints for this project. They are a little expensive but they save you many steps and produce a nice finished product compared the amount of effort they require.
Before You Begin Rigging a Bark
Here is the complete (except for sail paper) set of paints, supplies and tools I used to paint and rig this Bark.
- Bark from Firelock Games
- Rigging guide downloaded from Firelockgames.com
- Light ivory poster board for sails (29 cents at Hobby Lobby)
- White glue
- Light grey spray primer
- Vallejo matte varnish spray
- Snakebite Leather Contrast Paint
- Aggaros Dune Contrast Paint
- Black Templar Contras Paint
- Cygor Brown Contrast Paint
- Blood Angels Red Contrast Paint
- Sky Grey Vallejo Paint
- Hobby knife
- Small, medium and large brush
- Hole punch pliers (optional)
I tried to do everything in a careful sequence here so parts had some time to dry but if you aren’t trying to do the project in a huge hurry, the order of how you approach various parts of the project is not as important. I tried to include a clock in every picture so you can get a good idea of how long each step takes.
You really should thoroughly wash and dry your resin hull before priming as well. I didn’t this time, just an experiment and it’s been fine so far. The primer stuck without any issue. We’ll see how it wears…
Here we go! I opened the box at 11:39 and worked pretty quickly.
Step 1 – Glue the Chain Guards into the Hull
These fit fairly tightly so just put a little glue at the back of the piece of wood and push it in tightly. Dry fit it first to make sure it fits. Sometimes you have to shave it down a little. I did this first to give these pieces time to dry before rigging them in the same evening.
Step 2 – Clean Up the Hull with a Knife
The gun ports are the main project here. Cut out the thin film of resin and then shave the sides of the ports smooth.
I found a pretty nasty area on the stern above the tiller area. There can be some bad areas at the waterline as well you can either sand or shave down with a knife. I did all this work with a standard craft knife.
Step 3 – Prime the Hull
Prime with a light colored spray primer. I used a very light grey, I find that if I prime with white I have a hard time getting a good even coat over the white hull. But a light color is important to have under the GW Contrast Paints so don’t use a brown, black or dark grey.
Make sure to get a good even coat all the way around and take special care to get both sides of every rib of the interior walls.
Step 4 – Stain the Masts
You can use a wash or stain but the Contrast Aggaros Dunes does a great job. Make sure to get the ends of each dowel as they can be easy to miss.
You can paint all the little extra pieces while still in the sprue since the edges are already dark from the laser cut.
The paint soaks in fast so you can flip the sprue and do the other side right away. Leave the plastic on one side while doing the first side, then flip and peel off the second layer of plastic.
Step 5 – Clean Up the Cannons and Swivels
The cannons and carriages have a lot of flashing and mold lines on them. The cannon carriages are especially bad and you can take a lot of time on them if you really want to. Try not to obsess. Unless you like obsessing over this sort of thing!
I spent 6 minutes on them and they weren’t perfect but good enough!
Step 6 – Prime the Cannons
This is a two step process. Spray one side now and let them dry. You will flip them and spray the other side later.
If you want to use gun port hatches, prime these now as well. I left them off this model. Historical sources indicate they weren’t that common on smaller ships like this and they’re a bit of a pain to glue to the hull!
Step 7 – Paint the Hull Exterior
I made it super simple here and just used one color for the entire exterior. If you wanted to get fancy, you could use dark grey, dark brown or black for the horizontal ridges.
I used Snakebite Leather for the hull. Leave the panels on the stern clear for now so you can add some color later.
I used a large brush for most of the hull then swapped out for a small brush to do the edges near these panels. I made some messy mistakes here but I planned for that and we will touch it up later after this has dried. Contrast paints are hard to control and you always have to do some touch up on edges.
This took 16 minutes and the majority of the that time was spent being careful of where the paint stops along the interior rim. Don’t let too much paint pool in areas or you’ll get big dark smudges.
Step 8 – Finish Priming the Cannons
Flip all the swivels, cannon barrels and carriages and spray the opposite sides.
Step 9 – Assemble the Masts for the Bark
The contrast paint soaks into the wood fast. It would be better to wait longer but after 35 minutes they weren’t sticky so I forged ahead!
Some of the parts were a little tight so I used the knife to ream out the holes on a couple pieces. Just be careful not to exert too much pressure with the knife and split the pieces.
The bowsprit comes in three pieces. Don’t glue the vertical piece on the very end yet. Let the two other pieces bond first and we’ll come back to that tricky bit later.
You have to glue the 3 little pieces together that hold up the horizontal spars now, and you’ll attach the spars later. See picture above.
Step 10 – Paint the Deck
This was fast and easy. Use a large brush and spread a nice even coat of Aggaros Dunes over the deck. You can cover the hatches if you like but I left them white and came back to them later with Snakebite Leather.
I find this paint to dry really nice and even so you don’t have to worry about blotches here are much as you do when painting the hull exterior.
5 minutes and done! We’re one hour in so far and we have our masts drying, the largest part of the hull and the deck painted and the cannons primed!
Step 11 – Touch Up Stern Panels
Paint over any brown bits on the panels on the side and back of the stern.
I used Vallejo Sky Grey but anything light will do. Just make it as even as you can.
Step 12 – Paint the Cannons
I used Blood Angels Red for the cannon carriages. These little guys are tiny and annoying to paint. I did it in two steps. I simply held them with two fingers and painted everything I could and then came back to paint the rest a little later.
You’ll wear a glove on your non-dominant hand if you’re smart (I didn’t).
I used Black Templar for all the swivel guns and cannon barrels.
If you want to use gun port hatches, this would be the time to paint them as well.
Step 13 – Finish the Bowsprit (almost)
Getting the vertical piece to stick to the bowsprit is tricky. I’m applying the glue now, then letting it set for a few minutes to get tacky, and we’ll put the pieces together in a bit. Just apply the glue and let it sit while we move one.
Step 14 – Prepare the Sails
The hull is still drying so we’ll prep the sails! You can print out the sail template on the Firelock Games download section here.
The absolutely simplest way is just print pages 2-3 of this sail document double sided on heavy paper and cut them out and use them. I didn’t have heavy paper that would work with my printer so I cut out these sails as templates.
I then traced the size onto a sheet of 29 cent thin poster board (Hobby Lobby) and cut those out. Try to cut straight but don’t obsess yet. You’ll likely have to trim when after the masts are set.
I give the bottom some shape but you don’t need to.
You can also use sheets of flexible craft foam. Paper is the cheapest and simplist and you can find nice ivory or cream colors in the scrape book section of your local craft store. You can use a pen or pencil to add some vertical lines like the Firelock template has if you like. I went for simplicity and speed here and just used the plain ivory paper.
Step 15 – Attach the Spars and Finish the Bowsprit (for real this time)
You might have to resize these holes a little. Get the piece close to where you want it, apply some glue to the mast and then slide the piece over the glue.
It’s now been 10 minutes since we applied the glue to the end of the bowsprit. It’s nice and tacky and you can attack the vertical flag staff bit. Find a way to balance the bowsprit so it doesn’t fall off while it dries.
Be careful to set the spars nice and straight while they dry.
Step 16 – Finish the Cannons
Using the red and black, got back and complete the pieces of the cannons and carriages that couldn’t be hit on the first pass.
Step 17 – Paint the Interior Walls
This was the most time consuming step. Getting an even coat without letting it bleed onto the deck was difficult. Painting both sides of every rib took a long time!
I used Cygor Brown here which is much darker than the exterior Snakebite Leather. You could concievably swap sections and do the exterior dark and the enterior light, or save money and do both areas the same color!
This took me 17 minutes!
I let this dry upside down so the thin paint didn’t pool near the deck and bleed into the light colored decking.
Step 18 – Assemble the Cannons
I put a drop of glue on both posts and two center contact points of each barrel.
One minute and done!
Step 19 – Paint the Deck Hatches
I used Snakebite Leather here again for the hatches. You could just paint them the same color as the decking but I find some contrast nice.
Use one of your smaller brushes for the edges where the hatch meets the deck. This takes a little care and time.
Step 20 – Paint the Stern Panels
I used the same red as I used on the cannon carriages here.
You can apply a couple coats in quick succession if you want a nice rich color.
Step 21 – Fit the Masts for the Bark in place
You can just slide the two main masts in without glue but you’ll need to glue the bowsprit as the rigging puts upward pressure on it.
Put some glue on the end of the dowel and on the gap in the hull where the bowsprit locks into place.
Make sure everything lines up nice and straight.
Step 22 – Start the Rigging
You could wait on this until after varnishing the hull but the varnish doesn’t do much to the elastic line so I went ahead and did it before varnish.
The rigging on the Bark is very simple and is ideal for a first rigging project. Simply thread the elastic line through the chainguard, up through the hole near the spar and back down through the other hole in the chain guard, pull it snug, tie a square knot and trim.
You can apply a drop of glue to secure the knot but if you pull it tight enough, the elastic thread will hold. I’ve never used glue on mine and they hold forever if you pull them snug.
You can trim the line pretty close if you’re knot is tight.
We’re two hours in and it looks like a ship!
The rigging for the whole ship only needs 5 lines. Four go from the chain guards to the main masts and one goes from the top of the front mast to the bowsprit. I prepared this line by making a knot thick enough to not pass through the hole but didn’t pull it tight yet as I wasn’t convinced the wooden parts had set enough yet.
Step 23 – Trim the Sails
Put your sails in place and see if they need to be trimmed.
Mine were a little too large and I cut the top off straight.
I then punched 4 holes in the top of each sail so they were ready to tie on to the spars later. I used a leather hold punch but you could use a needle or cut small hole with a knife.
Make sure the holes are spaced so they don’t interfere with the mast in the center.
It’s so close to finished!
Step 24 – Touch up the Cannons if Necessary
At this point we’re stalling a bit to give the hull paint more time to dry. I went over my cannons again and found that there was some white peaking through here and there, especially at the mouth of the barrels.
Step 25 – Finish the Rigging and Touch up the Masts
The bowsprit felt stable so I went ahead and tied off the line from the mast to the end of the bowsprit. Be careful not to jostle that silly vertical piece at the end of the bowsprit! You don’t want to have to glue that again.
Tie and trim!
Assmbling the masts made some scratches in the paint so I touched them up with the Aggoros Dunes.
Step 26 – Let the Paint Dry
It’s ready for varnish now but some of the interior wall paint was still sticky so I took a break.
Call of Duty Mobile for 20 minutes.
Step 27 – Varnish the Ship and Cannons
I put the swivel guns in place for this step.
Apply a spray varnish over the entire ship. I make sure to apply this generously to the deck since that’s where all the metal bases make contact with the ship.
I used Vallejo’s Acrylic Matt Varnish but army Painter and Testor both make fine varnishes as well.
Step 28 – Attach the Sails
I let the ship sit for a little more than 5 minutes before proceeding. The hull wasn’t nearly dry but the masts had soaked it all up and were fine.
Using snug square knots, tie the sails to the spars.
Pull the knots snugs and trim with your knife or scissors.
Tie the four knots on one side then flip the ship around to the other side.
Tie and trim again. I like to curl the paper a little to put a curve into the paper sail.
Step 29 – You’re Done! Go to Bed!
This ship needs to dry for a good while before actually using it or putting models on the deck, but it’s finished! That took 3 hours and 2 minutes from opening the box to complete.
Let me again emphasize that spreading this project out over a couple days is better so pieces and areas have more time to dry, but if you’re careful and do things in a smart order, you can storm through a ship in an evening!
Those red cannons add some color!
With the two main masts loose in the hull, you can turn them a little during games as you cross the wind, or even take them out and put them flat for transport.
This is a very basic method for painting a ship and I hope it can be helpful for players who want a simple and affordable approach and aren’t sure where to start. For a much more refined approach that yields a more polished finished project, check out Guy’s Sloop Painting Guide.
I want to reiterate that painting an entire ship in an evening is not the best approach. Letting glue and paint dry longer is a better practice but I wanted to show that it was possible.
Drop some models into the ship and away you go!
If you look closely at these pictures you can see the rigging lines got a little cloudy from the varnish spray. It would be better to rig after varnish.
Thanks for reading! I hope you found something helpful here.

To get through Canadian Winters, it’s imperative to support your immune system. We are very aware nowadays that we share our existence with a plethora of microorganisms, not all of them friendly: bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. Our immune system plays an important role in the ongoing struggle to keep us healthy. The efficiency of our immune system in keeping us free of disease, determines our level of immunity, which can be weakened pretty easily if we don’t make health a priority. In addition to this, many viruses live longer and can replicate faster in colder temperatures – so supporting your immune system to keep it in tip top shape, especially in the winter, is so important!
The immune system can be weakened by many factors including, but not limited to:
- Lack of protein and other immune-building nutrients from a poor diet, or poor absorption of nutrients
- Lack of beneficial bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract
- Environmental pollutants and toxins
- A weak or stressed liver
- Insufficient or poor-quality sleep
- Stress (including physical, mental, or psychological) which causes the release of cortisol which is immunosuppressive
- Lack of exercise/movement, impairing lymphatic drainage and decreases immune cell function
There are many ways, including diet, supplementation and lifestyle recommendations that can help nourish and support your immune system.
Diet: Balance & Moderation
To support your immune system, it is so important to focus on eating whole foods and having a macro-balanced diet (including adequate complete protein, healthy fats, and whole grains). It is important to avoid refined processed foods, sugar, alcohol, artificial sweeteners, coffee, tea, or any caffeine, stimulants, and carbonated beverages. Furthermore, to avoid foods one is sensitive to. Drinking a lot of pure water or herbal teas, increasing fibre intake, and dark leafy green vegetables and other chlorophyll-rich foods will help support the immune system.
Supplementation: Build & Boost
When it comes to immune health, there are two components to consider: immune builders and immune boosters.
Immune builders are necessary for the immune system to function properly – they are also referred to as immune supporters.
Here are some immune builders, and can be found in whole foods and/or supplements:
- Probiotics: without healthy gut bacteria, our bodies are at risk of developing any number of infectious illness.
- Protein: eat complete protein – all white blood cells and immune system tissues require sufficient protein.
- Zinc: this is a mineral that is involved in almost every enzyme reaction in the body.
- Vitamin A: stimulates the production of killer T-cells in the body.
- Vitamin B: support antibody production.
- Vitamin C (with bioflavonoids): immobilize microbes, neutralize microbial toxins.
- Vitamin D: increases self-destruction of mutated cells.
- Essential fatty acids (omega 3s): important for all important immune function.
Immune boosters don’t build new immune cells but stimulate the existing system. These are excellent to push our immune system into action but are to be avoided by people with autoimmune diseases.
Here are some immune boosters to consider:
- Garlic: antioxidant and stimulates production of glutathione, which supports detox.
- Echinacea: stimulates antibody and interferon production.
- Astragalus: enhances immune cell ingestion of microbes.

Before starting supplements of any sort, it is recommended to see a holistic health care practitioner to ensure you are taking professional grade supplements, as well as to ensure that what you take works for you and your current health situation.
Lifestyle: Stress, Sleep & Movement
Stress levels and sleep are two important lifestyle considerations.
High stress levels will create higher levels of cortisol in your system and this will suppress the effectiveness of the immune system. Ensuring that you are keeping stress levels down will help support the immune system. There are different ways to do this including meditation, deep breathing exercises, yoga, walking in nature, a day at the spa.
Getting adequate rest and a good quality sleep every night will also support the immune system. During sleep, your immune system releases cytokines, a type of protein. Some cytokins are required to fight an infection or inflammation – and sleep deprivation will affect their production!
Lastly, ensuring that you continue to move throughout the day is beneficial not only for mental health in these darker months, but also to move fluids in your body clearing toxins more easily to reduce the stress on your immune system. It doesn’t have to be big to be helpful. Consider taking the stairs rather than the elevator or escalator, doing some mild stretching and movement while watching your favourite show, or throw in some squats, lunges or arm circles as part of your morning routine to get things moving.
Recipe: Nourish & Support your Immune System
We all know that Great Grandma’s homemade soup had magical powers – we now know that bone broth (when made fresh) helps heal our gut and support our immune system, as it’s filled with protein, Vitamins A, Bs, C, E, Zinc, and Selenium. Enjoy this wonderful 2 step recipe!
- 1 Whole Chicken Carcass (about 2 lbs of bones)
- 1 Carrot (peeled and chopped)
- 1 Yellow Onion (diced)
- 2 stalks Celery (chopped)
- 3 Garlic (cloves, halved)
- 1 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1 tsp Sea Salt
- 1 cup Parsley (chopped)
- 6 cups Water
- Place the bones in the slow cooker. Add all remaining ingredients. Set slow cooker to low and let cook for at least 12 hours.
- After 12 hours, strain the broth through a strainer or mesh sack. Discard the vegetables that you strained out. Allow broth to cool. Once cool, remove the layer of fat that forms on the top, save it for future cooking. Consume or freeze broth until ready to use.

Blue Jean Chef® 3-piece Knife Set
Every cook needs good knives in the kitchen, which is why I decided to launch the Blue Jean Chef® brand with a set of knives. The set includes an 8-inch Chef’s knife, which will be your best friend in the kitchen and the workhorse for all your meal prep. For the smaller jobs, a 3-inch paring knife is the perfect tool for the job. The last knife in the set is a 7-inch Nakiri knife with grooves along the side of the blade. This knife gives you a straight cut, but the grooves help prevent food from sticking to the blade.
Blue Jean Chef Fully Forged Cutlery Set. The 3-piece knife set includes a 3″ Paring Knife with Sheath, a 7″ Grooved Nakiri Knife with Sheath and an 8″ Chef’s Knife with Sheath. These uniquely designed knives are fully forged from the tip of the blade to the end of the fully enclosed tang for superior strength and durability. Thoughtful soft touch handles resist slipping while the thick bolster in the center provides a natural balance while cutting.
Learn all about a Nakiri knife, including how to use it with a video lesson here.

Literary sources about Roman Jerusalem are scarce and provide little useful information for reconstructing the history of the city from the second to fifth century. Additional information is provided by epigraphic evidence and numismatic material, but archaeological data are without a doubt the most important source for a better understanding of Roman Jerusalem.
In the last decades the Israel Antiquities Authority has exhibited a growing interest in the archaeology of the Roman period of Jerusalem and our knowledge has increased considerably because of IAA excavations both in the old city of Jerusalem and in its immediate vicinity. Since the results of the excavations are increasingly published in English in addition to Hebrew, they are reaching a wider scholarly audience. A few years ago, the Journal of Roman Archaeology published a volume about Roman Jerusalem in its supplementary series including thirteen contributions, presenting new and insightful material. Shlomit Weksler-Bdolah was one of the main contributors to that volume and (co)author of a number of papers. Now she has published a monograph which presents a comprehensive survey of all archaeological remains available to date from the Old City and its environs that are useful for reconstructing the development of Roman Jerusalem. The focus of the volume is the urban layout of the city as well as the relationship of the city to its hinterland. While scholars in general tend to distinguish between the Roman period of the city (i.e. the time until the Christianization of the city in c. 324 CE) and the Byzantine era (i.e. 324-636 CE), Weksler-Bdolah takes a different chronological approach by discussing the period from the destruction of Jerusalem by Titus in 70 CE to the early decades of the fifth century when the city seems to have reached its maximum size and was surrounded by a wall.
The book sets off with a useful introductory chapter sketching the chronological and historical framework, the available literary sources and the history of research. The next chapter concerns a thorough discussion of the military camp of the Legio X Fretensis. After the destruction of Jewish Jerusalem in 70 CE this legion was stationed in in the city and stayed there until probably the end of the third century when it was moved to Eilat on the Red Sea. The legion was omnipresent in Jerusalem and must have dominated urban life to a great extent, including construction and engineering work as appears from the many stamp impressions on bricks, roof tiles and ceramic pipes, building inscriptions, and motifs associated with the legion on coins. Weksler-Bdolah’s focus, however, is on the site, layout and size of the camp, which is not easy to establish considering the scarcity of the archaeological remains of the camp. Like most authors before her, Weksler-Bdolah locates the camp on the summit of the city’s southwestern hill—the site of the Upper City and Herod’s palace of the Second Temple period; this is indeed the most likely location. Based on the analysis of the scant archaeological remains she makes a convincing argument for the demarcation lines of the camp which differ somewhat from earlier interpretations (Figure 12). The military camp was connected to the Temple Mount by the so-called Great Causeway, suggesting possibly that the site was still of importance for religious reasons. According to Weksler-Bdolah, the Temple Mount may have housed the Capitolium as mentioned in Cassius Dio (66.6.1), although his information is not commonly accepted by scholars, and it may have held a sanctuary for the imperial cult as well. The status of the Temple Mount in Roman Jerusalem is highly uncertain considering that there are contradictory literary sources about possible sanctuaries and it is impossible to perform excavations on the spot. In addition, the Temple Mount as highest point of the city was strategically important, which may explain its interest for the Roman army.
An important new phase in Jerusalem’s history is its establishment as Colonia Aelia Capitolina by the emperor Hadrian, the archaeological vestiges of which are comprehensively discussed in chapter 3. The date of the renaming and refoundation is an issue of scholarly debate: was it before or after the Bar Kokhba rising of 132-135 CE? Based on numismatic and epigraphic evidence, Weksler-Bdolah argues convincingly that the foundation of Jerusalem as a Roman colony should be connected to Hadrian’s visit to the city in 129/130 CE. The re-founded city had an orthographic layout, and a large part of the chapter is devoted to the archaeological remains of the main thoroughfares (the western and eastern cardo and the decumanus) as well as of secondary streets. In this chapter Weksler-Bdolah also discusses the free-standing city gates (the city was surrounded by a wall only in the beginning of the fifth century), plazas, public and private buildings. Considering the fact that Aelia had a pagan population and the city had a variety of polytheistic cults, as testified by numismatic and epigraphic evidence, the archaeological evidence for pagan sanctuaries is remarkably scarce. Based on predominantly literary evidence there may have been a Capitolium temple on the Temple Mount, a temple of Aphrodite/Venus—probably to be identified with Tyche according to Weksler-Bdolah—on Aelia’s forum, and a sanctuary for Serapis/Asclepius near the Pool of Bethesda.
Aelia changed character again in the fourth century, gradually becoming a Christian city, as examined in chapter 4. Weksler-Bdolah suggests that the earthquake of 19 May 363 CE catalysed a change in the urban landscape tied to the rapid Christianization of the city. Still, only two churches dated to the fourth century are testified: the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and the Church on Mount Zion. Christianization occurred especially in the near vicinity of the city (e.g. the Mount of Olives) where monasteries and churches were founded. The city expanded to the south—the author discusses the remains of a residential area south of the Temple Mount—but the large site of the former military camp probably remained unoccupied. Fourth century Aelia had a mixed population of pagans and Christians; Greek became the main language, as we see from inscriptions, although Latin and Aramaic were also spoken.
Weksler-Bdolah devotes considerable attention to Aelia’s rural hinterland in chapter 7, discussing imperial roads, military outposts and workshops along these roads, as well as settlements and residential buildings (Roman villas), and road stations, thereby making clear that Aelia was well-connected to the outside world. Other chapters deal with Aelia’s water supply (cisterns, pools, and aqueducts) and the cemeteries outside the city.
This volume offers a very useful overview of the development and transformation of the urban landscape of Roman Jerusalem between 70 CE and c. 400 CE based on its archaeological remains. Questions remain, such as the function of the Temple Mount in the cityscape, and the relative absence of archaeological data for urban dwellings and pagan sanctuaries. Nevertheless, the archaeological vestiges laid bare in the last decades have added significantly to our knowledge of Roman Jerusalem and it is to be expected that in the future that knowledge will increase with new finds.
Weksler-Bdolah has done a wonderful job in sketching a clear picture of the development of Jerusalem’s/Aelia’s topography and landscape. The many figures and especially the beautifully produced colored maps make that picture even more vibrant.

Mohamed Salah is awarded after the game against Bournemouth to the player of the game. The Egyptian, however, passes the award on to a teammate.
It has long been known that Mohamed Salah is one of the most down-to-earth players in the world of football.
The Egyptian proved this once again with a beautiful gesture after Liverpool FC beat AFC Bournemouth 4-0.
The top Reds star scored three goals to get his team to the top of the Premier League table and was to be presented with the Man of the Match Award. (Source www.bettingsites.ng)
Salah passes award to Milner
Salah, however, decided not to accept the award, but instead paid tribute to the impressive career of his teammate James Milner, who was up against Bournemouth for the 500th time in the Premier League.
“I must congratulate him on his great career. He deserves it today. I won’t accept the award,” Salah said in a double interview with teary-eyed Milner at Sky Sports.
The team of coach Jürgen KloppAnzeige climbed through the 13th victory in the 16th Premier League game: Here geht´s to Klopp´s Biography to the top of the table and is now one point ahead of Manchester City.

Can you lose your hearthstone?
If you are missing your Hearthstone, check your character’s entire inventory by going to the bank, opening your bags, and searching “Hearthstone” in the search field on your main backpack. If your Hearthstone is not in your bags, go to the nearest Innkeeper.
How do I lower my hearthstone cooldown?
The cooldown of a hearthstone was also lowered to 30 minutes. This trick involved creating a group for an easily accessible instance (such as the Stockades), zoning in, then passing lead to the other person and leaving the group, thus forcing the system to teleport you to your hearthstone point.
How do I get Shadowlands Hearthstone?
The Eternal Traveler’s Hearthstone is a Toy added to your collection when you purchase the Epic Edition of World of Warcraft: Shadowlands. It does not change the effect of existing Hearthstones. To locate the Eternal Traveler’s Hearthstone, open the Collections window, then click the Toys tab and look for it within.
How do you recover hearthstone in Dalaran?
If you still can’t find your Dalaran Hearthstone, talk to Amisi Azuregaze in the Legerdemain Lounge in Dalaran to receive a new hearthstone. You can travel to the Broken Isles using the portal room in your capital city.
How do you get DK in Hearthstone?
Unlike other classes, Death knights start without a Hearthstone (you will have a Hearthstone set for the instanced introductory quest line, but it will disappear after you end it by traveling to Stormwind). However simply setting any inn to be your home will add a Hearthstone to your inventory.
How do you become a DK?
You first need a level 55+ character of any class on your account. This will unlock the Death Knight class for you and only on this account. No, you keep your old character. You simply have to create a new character and choose Death Knight as class.
When can death knights leave starting area?
You don’t get to leave the DK starting zone and go to SW (or anywhere else) until you will be about level 64. This is due to the current 100% bonus exp event. The DK starting zone is designed for you to FINISH it at level 58 – ready to go right to Outland.

Unlike traditional lotteries, most online lotteries are run by private companies. These companies act as middlemen, facilitating transactions among players who wish to play for a chance to win the big prize. Although these online lottery games aren’t as widely available as those run by the government, they still allow players to buy tickets for official government lotteries. Additionally, they have a much wider pool of games to choose from.
The legality of online lottery games is a controversial issue. While many states have allowed them to operate, others have prohibited them. However, a few states have taken steps to reduce the regulatory burden on lottery operators, including Illinois and New York. Some states have also limited online lotteries to instant win games and keno.
While the US Department of Justice initially ruled that online lottery sales were not illegal, that decision was reversed in 2011 by a judge. Afterward, the New Hampshire lottery commission filed a lawsuit against the Trump Administration. This lawsuit was successful and the Illinois Lottery implemented its online lottery sales program in March 2012. There are now seven states with legal online lotteries.
There are a number of benefits to playing the online lottery. Not only do you get to play with real money, you also have the opportunity to play multiple games at once. Some states also offer scratch cards that you scratch with the click of your mouse. You can win great prizes by winning one of these games!
Another advantage of online lotteries is the ease of managing your bankroll. You can control how much you spend on your tickets, when you play, and when to stop. This allows you to have a more enjoyable gambling experience.
While federal law allows the sale of lottery tickets online, many states have been hesitant to adopt such a policy due to concerns of increased fraud and difficulty in preventing sales to minors. They are also concerned about the loss of lottery tax revenue. These concerns have led to a need for regulations to protect players and the integrity of the market.
There are several benefits to joining an online lottery, including legality and safety. Online lotteries can also be played for free or for a fee. Before joining an online lottery, it is important to learn the cost of the tickets and any fees the lottery agent may charge. This will allow you to determine whether the lottery is legitimate and if there are any hidden fees.
Legality in 45 US states
The legality of online lottery sales has caused a bit of confusion in some states. While it is generally legal, some states have shied away from it, such as New York and Illinois. These states feared that offering online lotteries would violate the Wire Act, which prohibits interstate gambling. Some states, including Illinois and New York, sought an opinion from the Justice Department, but their request was rejected.
However, online lottery sales are becoming more popular, with more states joining the fray. Currently, online lotteries are not legal in all states, but a few Northeastern states, including New Hampshire, have taken the lead in legalizing online lottery sales. In New Hampshire, players can play e-Instant games on their computers and mobile devices. Other Northeastern states are considering legalizing online lottery sales as well.
Legality in District of Columbia
There is some debate about the legality of online togel singapore in District of Columbia. Those opposed to the idea point out that D.C.’s gambling laws have few criminal penalties for players, but there are still some penalties for operators. These include setting up or hosting illegal gambling devices, but the penalties are less serious than in most US states. In 2011, there were 15 arrests in the District for gambling-related charges.
In terms of gambling, there are no casinos in Washington DC, but social gambling is allowed. As long as you’re not hosting a game, don’t collect a large rake, and don’t disclose to others that you’re playing, you’re fine. However, the same can’t be said for casino games or pari-mutuel options.

The Dangers of Gambling
Gambling has been around for thousands of years, and its roots can be traced back to ancient China. Around 2,300 B.C., Chinese people used tiles to play a primitive lottery-style game. Today, gambling is a popular pastime and can be profitable if you use the right strategy and techniques. In the second quarter of 2021, US gambling revenue will reach $13.6 billion, a record for the industry.
Responsible gambling means understanding the odds
Responsible gambling is all about gambling responsibly, so that you can have fun while making sure that you’re not harming yourself or others. It also helps prevent addictions to gambling. While gambling may seem like a harmless pastime, it can easily turn into a serious problem if you don’t know when to stop.
There are several ways to make responsible gambling a success, and it starts with understanding the odds of games. Many casino games have set odds associated with them. Blackjack, for example, has an almost four-in-five chance of winning a hand. Similarly, craps, roulette, and three-card poker have specific odds.
Problem gambling is an impulse-control disorder
Problem gambling is a serious impulse-control disorder, affecting those who are addicted to gambling. It can cause emotional, family, and legal problems. The disorder can be mild or severe, and it often worsens over time. Problem gambling is also associated with other disorders, including substance abuse, unmanaged ADHD, depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder.
Problem gambling affects up to 15 million people in the United States, and is increasingly common among young people. It can affect employment, personal relationships, and finances, and can even lead to criminal activity.
It can lead to financial ruin
Gambling is a subtle vice that can cause financial ruin. It gives the illusion that you can make easy money, but the house will always win. Those addicted to gambling must be aware that gambling can lead to ruin if it is not dealt with immediately. In addition, the problem can affect family and career relationships. Moreover, problem gamblers may resort to illegal means in order to get money, such as stealing from employers or loved ones.
If you’re suffering from gambling addiction, the first step is to get help from a debt management agency. These agencies can help you create a budget and reduce interest rates for gambling debt. This process will take time, but will help you get back on track financially. Gambling debt is similar to other types of debt, and you will have to develop a repayment plan with your creditors to pay them off.
It can lead to mental health problems
Gambling is an addictive habit that can cause physical and emotional health problems. Gambling compulsively can cause a number of problems, including depression and suicidal thoughts. Those who engage in compulsive gambling may also experience physical problems such as headaches and stomach aches. They may even suffer from insomnia, anxiety, or depression. In addition to these physical effects, compulsive gamblers may experience stress-related issues that may affect their relationships. These people are also more prone to suicidal thoughts.
Problem gamblers often report experiencing relationship distress, financial difficulty, and legal difficulties. Some also experience family and intimate partner violence. Suicidal thoughts and behavior are also common among problem gamblers. Problem gambling also affects the community by increasing criminal activity.

GENERAL PHENOMENA OF THE HEAVENS-DEFINITIONS AND PRELIMINARY OBSERVATIONS.
1 Astronomy, or Plane Astronomy, is the science which treats of the motions, distances, magnitudes, and appearances of the heavenly bodies. Physical Astronomy applies the principles of mechanics to explain their motions.
2. General Observations. If, on a clear night, we fix our attention on the heavens, and continue to observe them at intervals for a few hours, we may, without the aid of any instruments, make some useful observations. It will be seen that the stars retain the same positions with regard to one another; but that their positions with respect to the earth are continually changing. Those in the eastern part of the heavens become more and more elevated, and others that were not at first visible, come into view, or rise. Those in the western part, descend lower and lower till they go out of view, or set. In the southern part, some will be observed to rise,
ascend to small elevations, and then descend and set, to the west of their places of rising.*
3. Circumpolar Stars. If we direct our attention towards the north, different phenomena are presented. In that part of the heavens, there are many stars which do not set. Those that are descending continue to do so till they arrive at certain lowest points, and then begin to ascend. They appear to revolve or describe circles about a certain star which seems to remain stationary. This star is called the Pole Star. All the stars that do not set are called Circumpolar Stars.
4 North Pole. When the pole star is more accurately observed by the aid of suitable instruments, it ceases to appear stationary. It is found to have an apparent motion in a small circle, round a certain point as a centre, or geometric pole, distant about 11° from it. This point is called the North Pole of the heavens, or simply the North Pole.
5. Diurnal Motion. If our observations are repeated on successive evenings, we find the same stars moving in the same manner, and occupying, at any given time in the evening, very nearly the same positions with regard to the earth as at the same time the preceding evening. The stars, therefore, and indeed all the heavenly bodies, appear to revolve round the earth from east to west, in about twenty-four hours. This motion is called the Diurnal Motion.
6) The Moon. If the situations of the moon be observed on successive nights, it will be found that she changes her position among the stars, moving among them from west to east: that is, in a direction contrary to that of the diurnal motion. By this motion she makes a complete circuit of the heavens in about twenty-seven days.
The Sun. The sun also appears to have this motion from west to east, among the stars. This may be inferred from observing the position of different groups of stars after the sun has
* Here and in other parts of the work, unless the contrary is mentioned, the observer is supposed to be in the United States, or southern or middle parts of Europe.
If our observations are repeated at intervals for some weeks or months, we shall find that the sun appears continually to approach the stars to the eastward of him. He thus, in the course of a year, appears to make an entire circuit of the heavens.
Owing to this apparent annual motion of the sun, the groups of stars visible at a given hour in the evening, and their positions at that hour, are very different at different seasons of the year.
& Planets. There are likewise several stars which have motions among the other stars, moving generally like the sun and moon, from west to east; though sometimes for short periods they appear to move in the contrary direction. These are called Planets.
Five of the planets, named Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn, are visible to the naked eye, and were known to the ancients. Within the last seventy-five years, thirty-three others have been discovered with the aid of the telescope, without which they are invisible. Their names are Uranus, Neptune, Flora, Melpomene, Clio, Euterpe, Vesta, Iris, Metis, Phocea, Massalia, Hebe, Lutetia, Parthenope, Fortuna, Thetis, Amphitrite, Astræa, Egeria, Irene, Thalia, Eunomia, Proserpina, Juno, Ceres, Pallas, Bellona, Calliope, Psyche, Hygeia, Themis;* these with the exception of Uranus and Neptune are called Asteroids.
Satellites. Observations with the telescope show that somet of the planets are accompanied by one or more smaller bodies, whose positions are continually varying. These small bodies, are called Moons, Satellites, or Secondary Planets; those named in the preceding article being called Primary Planets.
Of the Satellites known at this time, four revolve around Jupiter, eight around Saturn, six around Uranus, and one around Neptune.
10. Planetary Regions. The sun, moon, and planets, with their satellites, move through nearly the same region of the heavens, the courses of the moon and planets, except Pallas and one or two other Asteroids, not differing greatly from that of the sun.
1. Comets. There is a class of bodies that appear occasionally in various parts of the heavens, moving in various directions among the fixed stars, and only continuing visible for a few weeks or months. These are called Comets.
A comet is not unfrequently accompanied by a faint brush of light, projecting from it on the side opposite the sun, and extending in some cases to a great distance. This is called the tail of the comet.
* The names of the two last discovered have not yet been announced.
12. The Earth. The earth is a body of a globular form. This may be inferred from the following well known facts. When persons on board a ship at sea, observe another ship receding from them, they first lose sight of the hull; then of the lower sails; afterwards of those that are higher; and lastly of the most lofty sails. To an observer at the mast head, the receding ship continues visible long after it has ceased to be seen by those on deck; the different parts eventually disappearing to him in the same order as to those below. This takes place in whatever direction the ship recedes, and in whatever part of the ocean the observations are made. Hence it follows that the surface of the ocean must be globular; and as the general level of the land does not greatly differ from that of the ocean, the whole earth may be regarded as a globular body.
By methods that will be noticed in a subsequent chapter, it has been ascertained that the earth is nearly, though not exactly, a perfect sphere, and that its diameter is about 7912 miles.
13. Fixed Stars. Those stars which do not sensibly change. their positions with regard to one another are called fixed stars. They are at an immense distance from the earth. This may be inferred from the fact that the angular distance of any two of them is found to be the same at whatever part of the earth the observation is made. It has indeed been ascertained by means which may hereafter be understood, that the distance is so immensely great that the angle contained between two lines conceived to be drawn from one of them to opposite sides of the earth must be less than the ten thousandth part of a second. We may therefore regard the diameter of the earth as an insensible quantity in comparison. with the distance of the stars.
In consequence of their immense distance, the fixed stars appear merely as luminous points, even when viewed with telescopes of high power; whereas the planets, when thus viewed, present sensible and measurable discs.
14 Celestial Sphere. It is not supposed that the fixed stars are all at the same distance from the earth. But since their distances are all so exceedingly great that no change of position on the earth produces any appreciable change in their positions with re

Página 76 - But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none; And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not; And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away.
Página 78 - By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter; choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.

ly pastor of the FIRST INDEPENDENT CHURCH, at Baltimore, (a taking title for UNITARIANISM): Author of a large volume 8vo-upon the doctrine, ordinances, &c. of the EPISCOPAL CHURCH-а powerful, clear, cool, impudent book: a very able theologian a good scholar-and a strong, plain writer, with a disposition to be a fine writer, which plays the devil with him, occasionally. He was also editor of the UNITARIAN MISCELLANY-i, e. the author-and is yet a large contributor. The U. M. is a clever thingdone up in good style-sent all over the country-and sold for a song. Mr S. was chaplain to Congress for a time (See Dec. 1824, p. 426); but, much to the credit of his good sense, after two or three years of trial, has given up the pulpit-a place, for which he was not well qualified, (as a speaker, we should say,) and has betaken himself to writing; business for which he is qualified-save when he forgets himself and presumes to be rhetorical, warm, or generous.
SPRAGUE-CHARLES. A young man of Boston, Massachusetts-a merchant's clerk, we believe, who obtained prize after prize, among the poets of his country, for his ADDRESS on the opening of sundry theatres. There is not much poetry in these papers, thus written; but-after all-they are about as good, and about as poetical, as the best of ours, by Johnson, Pope, Garrick, Byron, etc.
STITH. We have confounded several persons, (each of whom has written a HISTORY OF VIRGINIA,) with one another, in our recollection. -That, by STITH, however, if we do not mistake, is a very good account of the state. SMITH is not an American writer-if he were, we should like to spend a little time upon his heroick achievement, from the time of his adventures among the Moors, until he went, in the same spirit of chivalry, among the North American savages.
STEWART-Professor : An able writer on theology: the champion of ANDOVER, a place where Calvinistic theology is taught (the College of the PRESBYTERIANS): The CATHOLICS, by the way, have their Colleges in MARYLAND: The EPISCOPALIANS theirs at PRINCETON, New Jersey: the UNITARIANS theirs at Harvard University--Cambridge-MASSACHU
VERPLANK-A sound, beautiful writer. We know but little of him, or his writings, which are only a few papers: one of the SALAMAGUNDI people, we are told: A DISCOURSE of his, before the New York Historical Society, about 1818-is a fair specimen of his power.
WALTER-WM. В.-A young man, of Boston, Massachusetts; educated at Harvard University, for the business of preaching Unitarianism: But, having anticipated his time; preached before he had got a "licence"-gone about, rather too freely, giving unto others, what had been rather too freely given unto him ;-having, to say the truth, done some very foolish, incoherent, brilliant, queer things (for a preacher) in the way of poetry, lectures, &c. &c.-he was never able to obtain a preaching "licence."-He wrote SUKEY (an imitation of Don Juan)-with a few other POEMS, published afterwards.-They are a compound of strange, beautiful poetry; audacious plagiarism; and absolute, vulgar nonsense.-Logan, therefore, was laid at his door. But Neal, who, undoubtedly knows the truth, declares that Walter is entirely innocent of Logan: that he never saw a line of that;
WALSH, ROBERT, Jr.-AUTHOR of a small book on the aspect of AFFAIRS IN FRANCE, which was handsomely puffed in the Edinburgh-(quite enough that, we suppose, to show its value:) EDITOR of a quarterly journal, in America, for which he has fifty times more credit than he deserved: Of the AMERICAN REGISTER, (if we do not mistake the name,) a large compilation, with some original matter of his, under the head of "ELEGANT LITERATURE:" Of the ArPEAL, from the judgments of those (among others) who had been puffing him here:-And of the NATIONAL GAZETTE, Philadelphia.
The first BOOK is well written with a little over-doing: the JOURNAL was clever, solid, and useless: The review of the FEDERALIST in it is quite ridiculous, though it is talked about, as a commentary thereon. The REGISTER was badly contrived: So was the APPEAL, which, by the way, "clumsy" as it was, must not be looked upon, as the work of "ROBERT WALSH, JUNIOR, ESQUIRE;" but, in truth, as the work of a great multitude, who had been diligently employed, for a long time before, in collecting - material—which, whatever else we may say of it, is authentic. The VOL. XVII.
whole, taken together, is a bad, mischievous, provoking, unavailable piece of work. It might have been made, with half the talent of Mr Walsh, a popular, and useful book.-It might have done much, to allay the prejudices of our countrymen; the foolish apprehension-the blind, absurd, perpetual deference of his.-Nobody reads it, now: nobody ever will read it, here.
Mr Walsh is a man of highly respectable talent; a pretty good scholar; and a well-trained, serious, heavy writer. But he has no strong originality-none at all. His writings are like those of any other plain, sensible man, who knows how to express himself clearly: that is, when, like Mr Sparks, he is content with doing what is possible for him to do.-He has been rash enough to venture into the hot, glorious atmosphere of Burke once or twice; to imitate him-with a show of eloquent, bold indignation, excessively ridiculous in Mr W.: to steal some of his ideas, which he could no more handle or hide in his own workthan he could so many red-hot thunderbolts, in a snow bank.
His NATIONAL GAZETTE is one of the very best papers, that we know of.
WATERHOUSE, DR. A medical writer of great notoriety, in Boston, Mass: a good man-a very useful one-a pretty good writer-nevertheless.
WATKINS, Dr TOBIAS. A man of good, sober talent: a fine reasoner-a classical writer: Editor of the PORTIco-a so-so sort of a journal, taken altogether; but, for a wonder, in America, entirely original: the reputed Editor of the NATIONAL JOURNAL, (Washington, district of Columbia) — a weekly, or semi-weekly paper, which is authority, in political, and literary matters.-Watkins brought Neal out.
judge of Pennsylvania: or president" rather of some court.
WILSON.-The ORNITHOLOGY of this naturalist, we look upon as quite a magnificent affair for America. The plates are good: colouring fine: typography capital: editorial matter excellent.
WILKINSON-GENERAL JAMES An officer of the American revolutionary war: (See IRVING, KNICKERBOCKER, p. 62,) a general in the last : IHis LIFE, by himself, in three or four arge American 8vos; equal to as many English 4tos, will be valuable, though it is not now. It is well written crowded with historical facts, of which he was an eye-witness: with good military and political criticisms -for which he will have credit hereafter. His open attack, upon some other American generals; Mr President Madison; John Randolph, and some others, will be pleasant reading, some half a century from this time.
WILLIAMS. The HISTORY VERMONT, by this Mr W., is a good, substantial book. The information is particular, without being tiresome; the style quite good enough, we think, for the subject.
WIRT-Attorney-General of the United States: a Marylander. The works of this man are, THE British SPY-a beautiful duodecimo, with some fine writing in it: THE OLD BACHELOR-a parcel of Essays, not worth reading: and Life of PATRICK HENRY, (one of the most extraordinary men that ever lived :) a piece of extravagant eulogy, wherein the biographer has overlooked everything but himself, in his passion for rhetorical ornament.-Mr Wirt is, nevertheless, a good, and beautiful writer; but he has never yet written a book worthy of himself. See vol. XVI. p.
WOODWORTH-a poet-a novelist -a critic-an editor. We know little or nothing of him, in either capacity. A few of his little songs are tolerable; his novel, the CHAMPIONS OF FREE DOM, is intolerable; his talent, as a critic, and editor, somewhere between the two-neither tolerable, nor intolerable.
WYATT-Rev. Mr, pastor of an "Episcopalian church" at Baltimore; author of a book upon the Rites, Usages, and Authorities of the PRO
TESTANT EPISCOPAL CHURCH; a controversial work of no great merit : One of the best men that ever breathed.
Enough. Our undertaking is now over; our labour done; our end, for a time, accomplished. Now, therefore, are we willing to put our whole character; our character, not only for plain dealing; but for truth and soberness; wisdom and humanity, upon the issue. We knew well what we were about. We had no common purpose to serve; no idle, sneaking, dastardly spirit of any kind-either of hatred, envy, or uncharitableness: no unworthy motive; no mischievous inclination to gratify.-We had only that within us, which will do the great cause of English literature-that literature, which is put forth in the English language, we should say, on both sides of the water-more good, fifty times over, than gentleness, or daintiness:-we had only a feeling of stern impartiality in the matter; a bold and courageous determination—we believe a wise one-to say whatever might be of use; and, whatever we said at all, to say truly, come what would of it.
This we have done. Many mistakes; a few omissions, a very few, may lie at our door, perhaps; but nothing worse; not a single word of wilful misrepresentation. We have been doing that which was never attempted before-we have been giving a critical history of the literature of a whole people, without having a book to refer to, (except in two or three cases lately,)
without having a note, or a memorandum of any sort-altogether from recollection. There must be some errors, therefore; it cannot be otherwise.
We undertook this; we have done it. Our work is complete. The adventure was a serious one; worthy of any man's power; no lazy pastime, for a warm, summer afternoon. It has been seriously done-however it may appear :-conscientiously done.-Whatever may now be thought of our disposition or purpose-abroad, or at home-in Great Britain; or in America,-we dare to say that our motive is honourable, fair, and open; that our good wishes toward America-and so it will prove-are sincere: that our feeling of brotherhood for the people of America; and for those, in particular, who are addicted, after any fa
shion, to literature, is hearty: and what is more that our very language, inconsiderate, or intemperate or unworthy as it may seem; bitter and cruel, as it may be-low as it undoubtedly is, now and then, is nevertheless the language of truth; and always that which it deserved.
It is never the language of habitmere habit; nor of levity, however it may appear. We never use words of course, are never taken by surprise (in these matters)-wherefore, we do hope to have the credit of choosing our words with a full knowledge of their power, in every case. Is our language low? -we stoop, only that we may heave the greater load: we draw back, only that we may run forward, with more power. We bend lower than other people, only that we may spring higher-go nearer to the earth, sometimes, only that we may bound further from
We have continued, as we began using low words, unless they were wholly beneath us, whenever the subject required it; whenever they were more suitable, expressive or vigorous, than high words: whenever-for that is the only criterion of propriety in language, after all-whenever they were the natural, instantaneous coinage of our thought-whenever they were the mother-tongue, as it were, of our ideas. -We never much liked raising our voice; or talking beautifully-anywhere at any time.-We had always rather lower it, even for emphasis.We had rather be understood-feltremembered, for a little time, with censure; than be praised-read-and forgotten, as people of high breeding or soft, pretty words, generally are, before the sun had gone down.-Of all emasculation, that of a man's thought -his own language-his own offspring, for fashion-sake-is most abominable. We would have our children go unmutilated; and we, ourselves, would rather talk English, than sing Italian.
Our object, after all, was nothing but what is now obvious to everybody. We would bring about, so far as in us lies; by every means in our power, - without flattery or falsehood, a speedy reconciliation between two great empires the people of which have been foolishly, wickedly warring together, openly or otherwise, for nearly fifty
years:-we would promote, by our steadiness; our honesty; our impartiality, a good understanding between, perhaps, twenty-five millions of human creatures-children of the same fathers-members of the same family
who, in the division of their inhe ritance, have been scattered all over the world: we would set a fashion between the literary men of Great Britain, and those of America-(knowing well, that it is they, who set what fa shion they please, in the two countries)
the fashion of plain dealing-cordial manly-and worth attending tosparing nobody-neither ourselves, nor our brethren, if they come in the way of our enterprize.
To do all this effectually, in a way that would be permanently useful conclusive-and, as we hope, leave nothing for future explanation, we have undertaken, among other serious matters, to do that for our brethren, over the seas, which no journal of their own, will, or can do for them-with anything like the same beneficial effect; we have undertaken, while furnishing our countrymen, with amusement, we hope; with solid information, which they may depend uponwhich they could not get in any other way, and which will be more valuable twenty years hence, than it is now, we are certain; while doing this, we have undertaken to show the people of America what has already been accomplished among themselves, by themselvesand what may yet be accomplished, if they will go about it worthily, among themselves-for the world of literature.
We do not say this, lightly-arrogantly-or without caring what we say. It is true-perfectly true- and we know it. Our journals here, have done the literary people of America, nothing but mischief. Their own have done them little or no good. We, ourselves, in our small way, severely as we have spoken throughout, of their faults, have positively done more for their encouragement, fifty times over, than all their own journals together; and all of ours-except our own.
The Quarterly; the Edinburgh,nay, even the Westminster, which would be, if it were not for great zeal, without knowledge, the friend of all their other institutions, on "t'other side,"-good or bad-have so abounded in error-blundering self-contra
diction-or absurd, miserable, selfdestroying falsehood-one way or the other, about America-now for-now against her ;-one day, with a ponderous gravity; another, perhaps, like a fellow, who goes about breaking heads, or spitting in people's faces, for the fun o' the thing that now, they are never taken up, in America, but for the purpose of proving from their pages, that, while they are all quarrelling with one another, they all agree in abusing America.
They our brethren over the Atlantick-have journals of their own, courageous enough: with temper and ability enough, to do that work, which we have now done for them.-The NORTH AMERICAN REVIEW-80 called, we hardly know why-is anything out a review of North American Literature. It is made up chiefly of prize essays upon the learning or policy of Europe-under the name, perhaps, of reviews upon some foreign books. And why-Because, if they handle the same questions there, in that Review, which are handled here, by our reviews, they will be better understood, here-and obtain a reputation sooner here, than if they confine themselves to American affairs; of which, by the way, our chief men, here, in the literary world, know just nothing at all.-'The reputation of every American journal, in America, depends chiefly, upon its reputation here.
Not one book, perhaps, out of every two hundred, actually written by native Americans, at home, is ever mentioned at all, in the North American Review: not more than a tenth part of the whole in the quarterly list' of new publications: nor one author, out of every dozen or twenty, who really deserve it. Besides, when they do undertake an American writer, it is in such a pitiful way-to be sure. They go shuffling and wriggling about him like young puppies about a strange animal-undetermined whether to yelp or fawn-run away-or bite.
ture, their own countrymen should pull them over the coals. They dare not play the devil with anything—as we do however willing, or able they may be-or however fine the oppor tunity-They are quarterly' people, forsooth; and, whatever may be their duty-whatever may be the tempta tion-they must keep up what such cattle are pleased-we dare say-to call their dignity.
We pity them for it.-We-thanks be to Him, that made us-and filled us, we hope, with blood of another temperature-we have no such bugbear in our way.-Dignity !-A curse on such a word, where it interferes with justice! It is-though but a word-a place of refuge-one of the old sanctuaries, to which the manslayer might fly, with his plunder about him.-We would abolish them, utterly.-We give no quarter-we take none.-Our periodical attacks, whatever else they may be thank Heaven-are not like theirs-the people of dignity. They would sooner let a great criminal escape, than give judgment upon him-without a wig -a gown-or a long quarterly speech. But we-if need be-like Haaroun Alraschid himself, will see the bastinado given, before we leave the spot, in our knightly perambulations: tuck up our gowns: away with our wigs, into the kennel: do execution upon him, with our own hands-or cut him up, for all eternity-if the ends of justice require it.
They dare not praise heartily, lest WE should laugh at them: They dare not condemn heartily, lest, peradven
In short-we can get along without stilts or trumpets; aye, and in our generation, of a single month, drive more vagabonds, more fools, more banditti from the Temple of Literature, than all the quarterly people, together, for a twelvemonth: put more bold, impudent ruffians to open shame, while they are chousing the public
the pilgrim-or wayfaring mantwenty times over, than all of those dignified, awful personages-whoif they use their pocket-handkerchief, give due notice thereof; and blow their

P. S. We hear of a pleasant "awakening" over the "other side" among the Yankee people. They have just given WASHINGTON ALSTON (see 1824, Aug. p.133: Nov.p. 560) 10,000 dollars (L.3000) for his BELSHAZZAR'S FEAST -a price unheard of in America.-We take some credit for this affair to our

Sometimes free trials are underrated. It’s like you get to test drive a car for days, and finally, it helps you clear your mind about whether you should buy it or not. The ultimate satisfaction is when you get a free trial for days and months, where you can actually try the product/service for good before making your purchase decision. Believe it or not. This is the way.
How To Get Audible FREE Trial?
In that way, Amazon’s Audible is the perfect example. Because I became a regular Audible user only after trying it first for myself. I was skeptical when audiobooks were getting popular, and I wasn’t interested at first. Then I replaced audiobooks with podcasts and music/songs for a while. And it was just perfect. It’s not like I don’t listen to songs or podcasts, but now I listen to audiobooks as much as I listen to songs. It’s just incredible.
To get started, you just need a free Amazon account to sign up. That’s all. You can choose any 2 titles free with an Audible Premium Plus trial. By default, if you don’t have an Amazon account with “Prime” membership, then you will get 1 credit, through which you can get 1 audiobook for free. But, if you have a “Prime” membership when you sign up, then you will get 2 credits, aka 2 audiobooks for free. You can get Amazon Prime here!
Go to this Audible Free Trial link, sign up quickly, and get two free premium audiobooks. Audible’s audiobook database is enormous; you can browse their library and get any of your favorite audiobooks. You can listen to their sample audio before you buy them. Some of the audiobooks are narrated by the authors themselves, and some others will be narrated by professionals or famous celebrities. You can let us know in the comments if you want to have some audiobook suggestions and recommendations according to your taste. They have best-selling audiobooks, popular podcasts, exclusive Audible Originals, and much more. If you want to know more you can check this full Audible review as well.
After purchasing the audiobook(s) with your free credit(s), you can start listening quickly. You can do this multiple times within your trial period. You can listen on your desktop/laptop or use their Android or iOS app for this. Not just this, if you have an Alexa-enabled device like Amazon Echo, you can also use that to listen to your audiobooks. Personally, I listen to good bedtime stories while sleeping. Trust me; it does wonders. You can cancel anytime before your trial ends, and you won’t be charged for that.
And if you have enjoyed your experience, then you can renew your plan automatically and continue enjoying audiobooks. They also have cool discounts and offers. They also have a current promo where you just have to pay $5.95 for the first 4 months. This is highly recommended if you love audiobooks and want to get started with a good membership plan asap. Either way, you can try the trial and see how it works out for you. Happy Listening!

So you’ve isolated your own wild yeast, or perhaps something unique from a bottle-conditioned beer. How do you hold on to that pure culture, ensuring that your hard work isn’t wasted and that you can go back to that culture time and time again?
It’s time to start building your pure culture library.
Unfortunately, agar plates are not a long term microbe storage solution; they will eventually dry out and destroy your pure culture. Check out these two solid options and find the process that works best for your home yeast lab.
Before proceeding, checkout Bootleg Biology’s Backyard Yeast Wrangling Tool Kit. Everything the experimental homebrewer needs to capture wild bugs, create agar plates, and isolate wild yeast.
Good Notes (not optional)
Good Notes (not optional)
Method #1: Agar Slant
(6 months to 1 year storage)
A slant isn’t much different from making agar plates, the difference is you’ll be pouring your agar blend into a sealed container.
- Determine how much agar media liquid is required. Pour water into your tube/vial and lean against a very short object at an extreme angle. The goal is to get as much surface area as possible. If the amount you poured into the tube is reaching up to the cap, pour off some of the water or find another object to rest it on at a greater angle. If using 30ml transport tubes, ~12ml of liquid resting on a kitchen trivet typically works well. Now multiply that amount by the number of slants you wish to create.
- Prepare agar media. Follow instructions in Creating Plates section for recipe and initial preparation of agar media liquid. Let it cool long enough so you don’t accidentally burn yourself, but not long enough to set.
- A note about autoclaving: This process is crucial to ensuring you maintain a pure culture. The ideal device is an autoclave, but pressure cookers are a whole lot cheaper and just as effective! FOLLOW PRESSURE COOKER MANUAL DIRECTIONS EXACTLY. While this is a common household cooking device, it can be extremely dangerous under pressure. Also ensure you are using a vial or tube that the manufacturer states is autoclaveable, if not, glass will shatter and plastic will melt (this makes yeast wranglers very sad).
- Sterilize media. Pour your prepared agar mixture into each vial/tube at your previously determined amount and seal the cap loose enough so that it won’t come off (goal is to ensure the hot steam can sterilize as much of the vial/tube as possible), place in racks inside pressure cooker then seal according manufacturer’s instructions. Heat at 10psi/240F for 15-20 minutes.
Alternative method: No pressure cooker? Place agar filled vials in a test tube rack in a pot filled with water at a level that goes slightly above the liquid level in the vials, and bring water to a boil for roughly half an hour. This is the least ideal method and does not guarantee sterilization, but will likely kill most microbes in the environment that made it into your vials.
- Set it and forget it. Follow pressure cooker instructions as to when it is safe to open and remove vials. Careful, they’ll be hot! Tighten the cap of each container. Remove each vial/tube and place on previously determined object and angle. It will take roughly 30mins to an hour for the agar to cool enough to set, much longer than if you were making an agar plate. Once the agar has set, the tube/vial can be stored upright at room temperature until you’re read to use.
- Streaking refresher: Make sure you’ve read the Streaking Plates section of Isolating Yeast first. The ideal culture to use to inoculate your sterilized slant is a single colony from a streaked agar plate. That way you know you’re working with a pure culture.
- Streak slant. Working underneath your heat source, loosen the lid of your slant, heat sterilize your inoculation loop, then let it cool. Quickly open the lid of your agar plate, pick up a colony from the agar plate with your loop, and quickly close the lid. While still holding the loop with yeast colony, pull the lid off the slant and turn the vial/tube upside down. A small amount of condensation may drip out, this is ok! Holding the slant at a 90 degree angle with one hand, streak back-and-forth quickly to put a “lawn” with your loop on the agar side of your slant (this doesn’t have to be pretty, you’re literally just trying to get as many microbes on the slant as possible). Quickly seal the lid.
- Incubate. Keep inoculated agar slant in a warm, dark room for roughly 2 days to a week. Long enough that you can see a significant amount of growth.
- Storage. Place in a refrigerator for 6 months to a year. Periodically you will need to transfer your culture to another slant to ensure viability.
Method #2: Glycerin Freezing
(1-3 years, potentially longer)
Freezing cultures is the most ideal method for storing cultures long term. In fact, the standard for yeast labs is to freeze their master cultures using a variation of this process. In their case, they’ll use an ultra cold -80 Celsius freezer. The typical home freezer only gets down to roughly -20 Celsius, which is close enough for our purposes.
So what IS the purpose of this type of banking? Is it even worth the effort? While yeast for the most part goes dormant at refrigerator temperatures, not all metabolic functions have stopped. Because of that, cell death will occur with time (albeit significantly slower than room temperature). Also, at non-freezing temps you are putting some amount of selective pressure on the cultures, so over time there will likely be some kind of genetic drift. This is why labs keep their master cultures so cold, so the yeast never changes and they can essentially have an unlimited supply of the master culture…locking in all of their original attributes.
So what does glycerin do? Even though vials of glycerin & yeast will freeze, the glycerin acts as a kind of buffer preventing ice crystals from forming. That means yeast can survive the process, as their cell walls won’t rupture (causing cell death).
- Start with a liquid culture. It’s easiest to perform this process with a culture you’ve stepped up to at least 100ml. Refrigerate your flask so that the yeast flocculates to the bottom, which will allow you to pour off the liquid on top.
Sterilize tubes with glycerin. Fill a number of autoclavable tubes with 2ml (20% of total liquid volume) of food grade glycerin (pipettes make it easy), any extras can be stored at room temp for later use. It’s ideal to always use pre-sterilized tubes, but since you’re going to have to sterilize the glycerin inside the tubes it doesn’t really matter. Place in test tube rack inside pressure cooker with lids on loosely. FOLLOW MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE. Heat at 10psi/240F for 15-20 minutes.
- Fill tubes with pure liquid culture. Follow pressure cooker instructions as to when it is safe to open and remove vials. Careful, they’ll be hot! Tighten the cap of each container. Once they’ve cooled to room temp, move to draft-free area. Remove flask from refrigerator, and move to draft-free area. If possible, spray down outside of flask with rubbing alcohol (or less ideal, StarSan) to prevent outside contamination. Carefully remove top from flask, pour off top liquid into another container. Loosen and remove lid from sterilized glycerin vial with one hand, and pour flask from yeast into tube with the other hand, replace lid. Shake up vial until glycerin and liquid yeast are evenly mixed.
- Deep freeze. If you have a freezer without an autodefrost cycle (you’ll know because you’ll have regular ice build up), you can stick your glycerin/yeast vials in then move on with your life. If you don’t, you’ll need to store the glycerin/yeast vials inside of something insulated like a cooler, further insulated with ice packs. Why does it matter? Autodefrost freezers regularly cycle on and off to bring the ambient temperature up in order to prevent ice build up. Yeast do not like this. Constantly fluctuating temperatures with quickly kill your pure culture, so try to insulate your culture from large temperature changes as much as possible. This is why it’s also always safest to have multiple backups (slant, liquid, etc) when freezing your cultures to ensure one mistake doesn’t permanently destroy your yeast buddies.

Back in June 2019, we announced the availability of a new training course, Displaying and rendering graphics with Linux. At the time of this announcement, the training materials were not available though.
Since then, Bootlin engineer Paul Kocialkowski has been very busy preparing those training materials, and has successfully delivered the first edition of this course to one of our customers in Spain early September. After taking the time to polish those training materials following this first course, we are now very happy to publish and share this 200+ slides deck, covering a wide range of graphics related topics:
- Image and color representation
- Basic drawing
- Basic and advanced operations
- Hardware aspects overview
- Hardware for display
- Hardware for rendering
- Memory aspects
- Performance aspects
- Software aspects overview
- Kernel components in Linux
- Userspace components with Linux
See also the detailed agenda of this training course. The LaTeX source code for all our training materials, including this graphics training, is available in a Git repository. It is worth mentioning that this training only consists of slides and demos, and does not include practical labs done by the participants, in order to keep the training logistics manageable and the duration reasonably short (2 days).
Here are a few slides showing various aspects of this training course:
By publishing this training materials right after our first course, and under the Creative Commons CC-BY-SA license, Bootlin sticks to its commitment of publishing all its training materials under a free documentation license, to better spread the knowledge in the entire embedded Linux community.

Celtic are investing heavily in the transfer market again this winter as Ange Postecoglou tightens his grip on Scottish football.
The addition of Oh takes his total of new signings to four and his spending up to almost £8m.
The club could not be in a healthier financial state and that is because we are not only prudent when we buy, but also when we sell.
Sell on clauses bring in extra millions to the club and Barry Ferguson reckons that this summer, we could be about to be quids in again as he predicts Kieran Tierney to move from Arsenal to Manchester.
Speaking on The Go Radio Football Show, Ferguson said, “He is too good to be on the bench. He is too good. Plain and simple.
“And I don’t think he’ll be happy. He strikes me as the type of guy who wants to play.
“He’s good enough to play.
“If he doesn’t play in the next few months, I don’t think he’ll be going in this window, I think the next three months will be key if Kieran Tierney is going to stay at Arsenal.
“And if he’s not going to play, then I think he will ask to go. And don’t be surprised if Man City or Man United is going to be interested.
“For me, he is a top player.”

The Process for Getting Dentures Boynton Beach, FLPeople may find it difficult to hear that they need dentures. After all, losing a few teeth can cause enough difficulty. The very notion that one is going to need artificial teeth instead can be difficult to adjust to. Fortunately, we have the tools and experience to help patients adjust to dentures in order to live a comfortable lifestyle. In fact, dentures can provide a natural appearance and remain fully functional. People may find it difficult to hear that they need dentures. After all, losing a few teeth can cause enough difficulty. The very notion that one is going to need artificial teeth instead can be difficult to adjust to. Fortunately, we have the tools and experience to help patients adjust to dentures in order to live a comfortable lifestyle. In fact, dentures can provide a natural appearance and remain fully functional.
The type of issues an endodontist treats
Resorption and tooth lossFollowing the loss of one’s teeth, resorption will begin to take effect. Adult teeth stimulate the jawbone, sending signals throughout the body. Once teeth fall out and stop stimulating the jawbone, the body will absorb the calcium in the jawbone to distribute to other areas of the body. Due to this, many people will experience a change in facial structure after losing some or all of their teeth. This is a main reason for why we recommend partial or full dentures to replace missing teeth. People who do not replace teeth will notice sagging or an indent in their cheek due to the jawbone weakening. While there are a variety of aesthetic changes, people will also find physical issues with missing teeth, including:
- Difficulty eating and speaking
- Sensitive areas of the mouth where the tooth used to be
- Risk of gum disease
- Need for more frequent visits to the dentist

The Dentures ProcessTo begin the dentures process, we will need to examine the patient and determine the best choice from full dentures, partial dentures, or another option. In some cases, if the remaining teeth are infected or weak, we will recommend a tooth extraction first. By removing the remaining teeth, we can then provide a set of fully-functional artificial teeth by installing dentures. Once we determine the best course of action, we will clean the teeth and remove any, if necessary. We will then make a mold and take measurements of the mouth. We will use this mold to develop the dentures and ensure they are a custom fit to the individual patient. This way, patients will not have to spend as much time worrying about the dentures falling out or being uncomfortable. It is important to note that there will be an adjustment period for the patient when first wearing the dentures. Following the appointment, the patients may need to wear temporary dentures until the new ones are complete. However, this step in the process can vary per each situation. We will send the mold and measurements to a dental lab that will create the custom dentures. After we complete the dentures, we will have the patient come in for a fitting. During the fitting process, we will make sure that the dentures fit properly and make any necessary changes. We will also go over proper care for the dentures and recommend the time for the next appointment to keep an eye on the dentures. There are a few things that patients need to know about the adjustment period. It will take around two weeks to completely adjust to the dentures and using them. The first step will be to avoid eating hard or chewy foods such as nuts and caramel. Proper oral hygiene will involve removing the dentures at night and leaving them in a special solution overnight. The patient will still need to brush the gums and ensure that there are no bits of food in the dentures. During the first few weeks, there may be some minor irritation and discomfort. However, the discomfort will subside after the adjustment period. The patient may need more adjustments in the months ahead, which we will be happy to schedule when necessary.
