Aldi’s Ballincollig store has become the first Aldi store in Ireland to donate 25,000 meals to local charities through the grocery store’s partnership with FoodCloud.
FoodCloud’s innovative software platform allows stores to connect with local charities to ensure surplus food from grocery stores can be rescued.
Since the partnership between Aldi and FoodCloud started in 2014, Aldi in Ballincollig has provided almost 11,000 kilograms of surplus food, equating to a saving of €35,000 for the charities and community groups involved.
Charities which the Ballincollig store supports include Cuan Mhuire Farnanes, Ballincollig Family Resource Centre, and O’Connell Court.
Commenting on the news, Ciara Hosford, Aldi’s Ballincollig store charity champion said, that they were “delighted” with the milestone.
“No one likes to see our surplus food go to waste and knowing this is going to and helping the local charities that do so much great work throughout Cork is something that we are hugely proud to be involved in,” Ms Hosford said.
FoodCloud CEO Iseult Ward described it as “amazing” to see how the store had made such a difference to its local community in a short space of time.
While Sally Burke, from the local charity Cuan Mhuire Farnanes said that the donations have given the charity the capacity to provide more meals to those who need help most and also allowed the charity to use its budget for other essentials and help more and more people.

DUBLIN is ahead of London, but lagging well behind other developed cities as an attractive posting for expats.
The Irish capital has ranked as just the 34th best place to live, according to Mercer’s Quality of Living review.
Dublin’s ranking is ahead of London and Paris, but far behind a number of comparable EU cities, including top-ranked Vienna – which ranked first for overall quality of living for the 8th year running. Zurich, Munich, Dusseldorf, Frankfurt, Geneva, Copenhagen and Basel all ranked in the top 10.
Cities were ranked on criteria including crime, housing, recreational facilities, climate, and political stability.

The Minister of Tourism Dionisio D’Aguilar says it is critical that the government acquire the Grand Lucayan Resort in Freeport, Grand Bahama. He said it had no other choice but to intervene. He then referred to the Royal Oasis which closed its door more than a decade ago.
Supporting a resolution in the House of Assembly yesterday, the Minister said, “it would be an act of sheer cruelty and neglect toward the people of Grand Bahama for the government to idly stand by and let the Grand Lucayan, a prime hotel property go the way of the Royal Oasis.
“ I would like to make a quick reference to the Royal Oasis comparison. The Royal Oasis closed its doors sometime in 2004. It remains closed today. The International Bazaar which adjoins the hotel is now a ghost town, full of derelict and abandoned buildings.
“It’s state of near total disrepair is proving that once you make the fatal mistake of allowing a hotel to close, it is very very difficult, if not impossible to get it reopened,” Mr. D’Aguilar said.
He pointed to remarks made back in 2008 by then PLP opposition MP Fred Mitchell who said that the then FNM government should have considered purchasing the Royal Oasis Resort.
Mr. D’Aguilar said, “the FNM government was chastised by Mr. Fred Mitchell the then opposition PLP MP for Fox Hill to do more and was quoted in the Nassau Guardian on the 16th of August 2008 as saying, and I quote, ‘the FNM government ought to consider taking special measures to ensure that the Royal Oasis property in Freeport is opened, including buying and developing it if necessary to put people back to work.’”
The Minister then offered up the assurance that the administration will not be timid in making a decision.
“The government will act decisively in the best interest in the people of Grand Bahama and the people of The Bahamas.
“The numbers revealed a tourism sector that has received some traumatic body blows and we were elected in overwhelming numbers to do what is necessary to reverse the trend,” he said.
Mr. D’Aguilar said reopening the Grand Lucayan Resort is not just about the hotel, but about the prosperity of the nation. | <urn:uuid:0dbeb753-8ad0-46cb-9d9b-bb5badf3d454> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://jonesbahamas.com/minister-calls-resort-purchase-critical/ | 2024-04-18T06:49:30Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.970392 | 493 |

Brady and Logan’s wedding had it all! From a beautiful mountaintop ceremony at Cliffs at Glassy Chapel, to an epic reception at Larkin’s L, and plenty of incredible moments in between, this was a wedding not to be missed!
We started off the day at Soby’s Loft as the ladies finished up with hair and makeup before heading to the AC Hotel in downtown Greenville to grab a few photos of Logan getting ready. Soon we were up at the Cliffs at Glassy Chapel, where Brady changed into her dress and we took a few photos before the ceremony. Logan was mesmerized as he saw Brady walking down the isle of the chapel. With their I do’s said, we headed up to the mountaintop for a few more photos before heading to Larkin’s L for the wedding reception in downtown Greenville, SC.
Larkin’s L was decorated with beautiful drapery, string lights, and beautiful centerpieces. Soon it was time for the grand introduction as A-town A-list band started to play. After dinner and some speeches, everyone was out on the dance floor having the best time! It all ended with a beautiful sparkler exit as Brady and Logan drove off into the night.
Thanks again guys!!

Ah, the 30s. The age where women often find themselves balancing the tightrope of life with the grace of a seasoned acrobat. It’s a time of self-discovery, career advancement, perhaps a love story or two, and definitely a period of refined taste. What better way to celebrate the fabulous woman in her 30s than with a piece of jewelry that speaks to her soul, style, and the sophistication she’s embracing? Here’s our insider guide to picking out the perfect bling that says, “You’re not just getting older, darling. You’re getting bolder.”
1. The Statement Necklace: For the Bold and the Beautiful
Gone are the days of playing it safe. A woman in her 30s knows her worth and isn’t afraid to show it. A statement necklace, whether it’s a chunky chain adorned with a pendant or a sleek, geometric piece, tells the world she’s here to make waves. Choose something that complements her fearless nature, and watch her light up the room.
2. Stackable Rings: For the Chic and Sophisticated
If she loves to express her style in subtle, yet impactful ways, stackable rings are the way to her heart. These little beauties are perfect for mixing and matching, offering endless versatility. Go for a mix of metals, textures, and gemstones to reflect her multifaceted personality. It’s the perfect metaphor for her 30s: complex, beautiful, and utterly unique.
3. The Classic Watch: For the Timelessly Elegant
A classic watch is more than just a timepiece; it’s a statement of elegance, punctuality, and a nod to the future she’s building. Opt for a design that blends functionality with style—think sleek lines, a hint of sparkle, or a touch of vintage charm. It’s not just a gift; it’s an heirloom in the making.
4. Hoop Earrings: For the Fun and Flirty
Hoop earrings are the little black dress of the jewelry world—timeless, versatile, and always in vogue. Whether she prefers them big and bold or small and dainty, hoops are a celebration of her femininity and fun-loving spirit. Plus, they’re the perfect accessory for both a boardroom battle and a dance floor romance.
5. The Personalized Piece: For the Sentimental at Heart
Nothing says “I see you” like a piece of customized jewelry. Be it a monogrammed bracelet, a necklace with a pendant of her birthstone, or a personalized ring engraved with a date or message that holds special meaning, this is a gift that whispers, “You’re one in a million.” It’s a daily reminder of the moments and people that shape her story.
Wrapping It Up with a Bow (Or a Box)
Choosing the perfect jewelry for a woman in her 30s is about celebrating who she is and the journey she’s on. Keep in mind to pick a reliable jewelry store in your city previously checking it on JewelryBro platform.
So, take a moment to think about what makes her special, and let that guide your choice. After all, the best gifts are those that come from understanding and love. | <urn:uuid:c4db1afe-97d3-4f8d-9b63-ff8b9f5a11af> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://julstory.com/the-best-jewelry-gifts-for-women-in-their-30s-a-guide-to-gifting-with-glamour/ | 2024-04-18T07:38:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.923567 | 715 |

Not at all as pictures on the website
Ordered 4 of these curtains to fit the decor in my new home. When arrived, I opened one to try at the window, the curtain was very thin, see through, and when against the light it looked like in some places the ''velvet'' was rubbed off. Plus, very shiny, whilst on the website, in the pictures, they look thick and matt. Contacted the customer service and they refused to pay for the return label, despite the items being totally different as shown on the website, however they offered me 40% refund of the amount I spent on them just to keep them. Since they are nothing like advertised and quality looks so cheap, I had no use for them so had to return, at my own expense; now hopefully I will reimbursed as promised. So yes, if you want a product that is completely different from the one advertised and you also want terrible customer service, purchase online from Jysk.
This curtains are really lovely to and well made but stinks a lot. Good blackout and nice colour.
A méretre vágás utáni csík vasalása elég macerás volt. Azért sikerült. A függöny nagyon szép, és jól sötétít.
Sunt multumita de produsul achizitionat. Aspectul este 10/10. Singurul minus este ca rejansa nu a fost cusuta bine la capete si exista o posibilitate de a se "desira".
Visst rea 150kr st än 499kr . Jag hade då inte köpt dem vid ord pris. 2 av 4 är slitna kommer inom kort bli hål i dem av de hängs upp hamnar i solen. Som rivmärken. Jag orkar inte skicka tillbaka dem de blir slit och släng fort. Dom 2 hade kunnat bli billigare i mitt tycke, besviken.

I haven’t done one of these in a while because, frankly, I wasn’t reading a lot during the last big push to finish writing To Get Me To You.
In keeping with the small town vibe, I’ve been on a Jill Shalvis kick, reading the 11th Lucky Harbor book, He’s So Fine, which I really enjoyed. Cole is the sexy geek with a McGuyver streak. Who doesn’t love a guy who can fix anything with a screwdriver and role of duct tape?
For Olivia Bentley, Lucky Harbor is more than the town where she runs her new vintage shop. It’s the place where folks are friendly to strangers-and nobody knows her real name. Olivia does a good job of keeping her past buried, not getting too cozy with anyone . . . until she sees a man drowning. Suddenly she’s rushing into the surf, getting up close and personal with the hottest guy she’s ever laid hands on.
Charter boat captain Cole Donovan has no problem with a gorgeous woman throwing her arms around his neck in an effort to “save” him. In fact, he’d like to spend a lot more time skin-to-skin with Olivia. He’s just not expecting that real trouble is about to come her way. Will it bring her deeper into Cole’s heart, or will it be the end of Olivia’s days in little Lucky Harbor?
I also picked up the 4th Animal Magnetism novel, Rumor Has It, which totally has that whole tough guy needs to learn to lean on a strong woman vibe that I love so much. Yes Griffin, you’re wounded. Kate will make it all better for you. You’ll see.
He’ll help unleash the new woman in her…
Special Ops soldier Griffin Reid doesn’t exactly have happy memories of growing up in Sunshine, Idaho. He’s only come back to recover from a war injury, and while he refuses to admit he’s in a weakened state, he finds comfort in the last person he’d expect.
Kate Evans teaches fourth grade science in Sunshine, the place she’s always called home. Dreaming of graduate school and a happily-ever-after, she’s desperate to break out of the monotony of Sunshine. Luckily, a certain sexy man has just come back into her life.
To Griffin, Kate has always been his little sister’s friend, but now he’s finding her to be so much more. As both attempt to forge their paths, they must decide if their passionate connection can turn into something lasting…
And now that I’m finally finished with TGMTY (at least until my CPs come back with revisions), I’m up to my happy eyeballs in la Nora’s latest, Blood Magick, which I’ve been salivating for since I finished Shadow Spell in March. I nabbed it on preorder for $2.99 back in the summer, and since the Whispersync audio was available for only $3.49 and I had a $1.99 credit at Audible, that was a no brainer. It has me desperately wishing for sweater weather and roaring fires and wanting to put out candles and–well, okay, let’s face it–move to Ireland. I’ll settle for a million cups of tea.
County Mayo is rich in the traditions of Ireland, legends that Branna O’Dwyer fully embraces in her life and in her work as the proprietor of The Dark Witch shop, which carries soaps, lotions, and candles for tourists, made with Branna’s special touch.
Branna’s strength and selflessness hold together a close circle of friends and family—along with their horses and hawks and her beloved hound. But there’s a single missing link in the chain of her life: love…
She had it once—for a moment—with Finbar Burke, but a shared future is forbidden by history and blood. Which is why Fin has spent his life traveling the world to fill the abyss left in him by Branna, focusing on work rather than passion.
Branna and Fin’s relationship offers them both comfort and torment. And though they succumb to the heat between them, there can be no promises for tomorrow. A storm of shadows threatens everything that their circle holds dear. It will be Fin’s power, loyalty, and heart that will make all the difference in an age-old battle between the bonds that hold their friends together and the evil that has haunted their families for centuries.
It’s interesting (and probably all la Nora’s doing)–Ireland makes me think of magic. Scotland makes me think of warriors (Diana Gabaldon owns my heart there). It all feels perfectly timed since today is Halloween! | <urn:uuid:a2ff5513-d3d1-4878-8559-8c323b3abe40> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://kaitnolan.com/2014/10/31/fiction-friday-round-up-3/ | 2024-04-18T08:34:23Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.957451 | 1,038 |
Perhaps I’ve had cachete tacos in Kansas City before and not realized it. They go by a couple other names—cabeza, barbacoa.
In Spanish, cachete means “beef cheeks” (one part of the cabeza) and it is typically steamed, barbacoa-style.
But Taqueria La Nueva (12561 Antioch Road, Overland Park) is one of the few places that gets specific on its menu, and that was reason enough to beat the lunch rush at this bustling new south Overland Park taqueria.
I like offal, and I’m particular about it (don’t give me chopped and fried lengua, I want that braised and shredded). But as far as left-of-mainstream tacos go, cachete is big, beefy and easy to love, especially when you’re getting it for under three dollars a taco.
Here, beef cheeks—one of the toughest parts of the cow thanks to all that chewing—are braised for several hours until the meat is as delicate as a flower petal, then piled into double corn tortillas and loaded with cilantro and onions. —Natalie Torres Gallagher | <urn:uuid:eaec4c22-b59d-434d-8ece-704ee75f2501> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://kansascitymag.com/were-loving-the-beef-cheek-tacos-from-this-overland-park-taqueria/ | 2024-04-18T08:36:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.951267 | 257 |

Neptune is in Retrograde from June 28th – December 4th 2022.
Firstly what is a retrograde?
A retrograde is when a planet appears to turn backward in the sky. This happens due to an optical illusion caused by differences in orbit.
All the major planets (excluding the luminaries – the sun and the moon) go retrograde from time to time.
When planets go retrograde the impact of the planet changes and the type of activities that are recommended change too.
What is a Neptune Retrograde all about?
Neptune is the planet of dreams, spirituality, creativity, imagination, and illusion (or delusion) and is ruled by the sign of Pisces – and the 12th house of Rest, Retreat, and the Unknown.
Neptune represents where we can get confused or lost or seek to escape in our life. Neptune can place a haze over whichever part of the chart it touches.
It is considered to be a fairly harmonious planet but whilst in transit, however, it brings to light things that were previously hidden.
Neptune can be thought of as the Mystic.
So when Neptune goes retrograde this heralds a time for seeing the big picture, increased intuition, and more vivid dreams. During this retrograde period what was once unclear becomes crystal clear and if we have been lying to ourselves it’s much more difficult to ignore the truth. Neptune Retrograde is a wake-up call and it may provoke you to make big changes in your life.
During a Neptune Retrograde, we may feel spiritual, creative, and visionary.
A Neptune retrograde will ask us to be honest with ourselves once and for all and to release the limiting beliefs holding us back.
By the time Neptune turns direct, we will be ready to make some big changes in our lives that in the past we have not been clear on.
Where is Neptune retrograding in your chart?
Neptune will retrograde from 25-22 degrees Pisces in 2022 so take a look at your natal chart to see which house this is in for you and take note of any other planets around this area.
If you are not sure what the different houses represent then check out my FREE astrology basics course.
What might the position of Neptune’s Retrograde in 2022 mean for you?
In which part of your life do you need to get honest with yourself?
For me, it is in my 7th House of Partnerships. Whilst this could be about my relationship with my husband, what has been coming up lately are business partnerships and creating some strategic and mutually beneficial partnerships in my business. Over the last few weeks, a number of partnerships of one sort or another have been established and it’s been important for me to release any old hurts or limiting beliefs around partnering with others through my business. | <urn:uuid:32865356-a8d7-44e0-a4a6-236d0b7ff28b> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://kathrynhocking.com/neptune-retrograde/ | 2024-04-18T07:16:31Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.959872 | 588 |

How to measure pipe fittings is important to understand. Read all about the process below.
One factor determining how successful a particular piping project is involves accurate measurements. If you do not know how to measure pipe fittings and pipe sizes accurately, your project has already failed.
This is why learning how to take accurate measurements of pipe fittings, etc., is crucial and must never be taken for granted.
Finding the Right Pipe Fittings
As mentioned earlier, how successful your project is has a lot to do with the accuracy of your measurements. When it comes to fittings and pipes, you need to always find the perfect or right size.
This can be somewhat confusing, especially if you need to gather supplies of accurate sizes for a specific project. No one wants to be halfway done with the project only to discover that more than a few pieces do not fit accurately together. This could be why most commercial piping projects take ample help from professional Plumbing services so that these little details are sorted out smoothly, leading to reduced expenditure in the long run. However, pipe measurements are something that can be learned with a little effort.
Learning how to take accurate measurements of fitting sizes and pipes is not straightforward, but it is not rocket science. The most important step to take in order to speedily learn how to measure pipes and fittings accurately is to find and use the right measuring equipment for your next project.
How to Measure Nominal Pipe Size
Several factors and measurements can help determine the nominal size of a pipe. This includes the circumference or outside diameter.
In order to obtain an accurate reading of the nominal pipe size, start by measuring the circumference and threads per inch. If you are dealing with a female pipe thread, you have to measure the inside diameter at the widest point of the threads. But for male pipe threads, ensure you measure the circumference at the widest point of the threads.
Use these measurements to discover the perfect/right size in a nominal pipe size conversion chart.
Actual Dimensions vs. Nominal Sizes
‘Pipe size’ is often the element that causes many people to make errors. In reality, pipe size has to do with the pipe’s nominal diameter or size. It is the nominal size plumbers use when describing or shopping for fittings and pipes.
For instance, tubing – such as the soft copper used in rolls – is generally measured by its outside diameter. The outside diameter of copper tubing is usually rounded to the nearest 1/8th of an inch for top-notch accuracy.
The misleading aspect is that the outside diameter measurement of tubing is not the nominal pipe size. This often creates highly perplexing or confusing plumbing issues when measuring pipe size accurately.
Taking the measurement of the pipe is not the same as measuring both the outer and inner diameters. The diameters of the pipe can change, depending primarily on the thickness of the material used in making the pipe. Moreover, the pressure rating of that pipe has zero significance.
For instance, 2 different -inch pipes may have varied outer and inner diameters since they have varying wall thickness. This is the primary reason why the nominal size of a pipe plays a crucial role in measuring fitting and pipe sizes.
Pipes with heavy pressure ratings and thick walls maintain the same outside diameter, which will remain the same. This ensures you get a snug and excellent fit right inside a socket.
But as the pipe wall changes, its inside diameter becomes smaller while the outside diameter remains the same. This is the same for inch/imperial sizes as well as metric sizes.
The inch/imperial and metric sizes are 2 unique systems. The inch/imperial system typically labels pipe diameters in inches, while the metric system usually labels pipe diameters in millimeters.
What Manufacturers Do
Some pipe manufacturers employ the same molds for their inch/imperial fittings as they do for their metric fittings. For instance, a Comer fitting comes with 2 numbers. If these numbers read ’80 – 4,’ the fitting is precisely 80mm and 4 inches.
However, you should know that it can’t be both since these are different measurements. Since the manufacturers use the same mold, they do not change the stamp on the fittings.
For the ‘90 – 3′ example, you may need to measure the outside diameter in order to figure out whether it was a 4-inch or a 90mm.
How to Find the Right/Perfect Pipe Fitting
Finding the perfect/right pipe fitting can be somewhat challenging. You need to find a fitting with an inside diameter that is just large enough to fit perfectly around your pipe. This is why it is important to know the nominal size of the pipe, as this will enable you to find accurate fittings.
Any time you want to purchase fittings, let your buying decision be based primarily on the nominal size instead of the inner or outer diameter of the pipe.
Other Pipe Measurement Considerations
Another crucial factor to bear in mind is that tubing and piping are measured differently. You cannot use the same methods you employ for measuring pipe fittings for measuring tubing. This is because the latter is measured based primarily on the actual diameter of the tube.
This is because cross-linked polyethylene tubing (PEX) is becoming increasingly common in different settings. PEX is also named and measured differently than standard piping. This is important in case you need to replace PEX tubing.
Remember that you also need to select the thread type alongside the proper nominal diameter for your piping. NPT (national pipe thread) is possibly the most common and often features tapered threads for sealing and joining pipes.
However, other pipe threads could have different advantages for different types of joints. Ensure you choose the right type for the specific application you have in mind.
The first step to carrying out a perfect and successful piping project involves knowing detailed practical information or the nuts and bolts of your equipment.
The second most important step is purchasing high-quality pipe stopples to ensure the success of your piping projects. You need to know how to measure nominal pipe sizes and fittings, as the data obtained will help guarantee the overall success of all the piping projects you handle.
It is also important to remember that the inch/imperial and metric sizes are 2 different systems. The ambiguity of fitting sizes could save you lots of money and time. | <urn:uuid:a8df6959-0c97-4a37-8bd1-cf3258f7d023> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://kbdelta.com/blog/how-to-measure-pipe-fittings-process/ | 2024-04-18T06:37:14Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.955708 | 1,314 |
Written by Dr. Robert Ripley, General Surgeon
Hernias are enlarged natural openings in the body or separations of muscle that allow underlying tissue to protrude through them. An example of a natural opening hernia is the hiatal hernia that allows a portion of the stomach to protrude into the chest cavity. Most hernias occur across the abdominal wall between the rib cage and the hips.
Causes of hernias are weaknesses in muscle present since birth, separation of muscle due to a previous incision, being overweight, pregnancy, chronic cough, or chronic straining. The most common hernia is the inguinal hernia, and it is an example of a weakness in the muscle since birth. It is most common in men and usually presents as a lump or protrusion in either the left or right groin areas. The protrusions are usually associated with a dull ache or increased pain with heavy lifting. Other common hernias are umbilical, incisional, hiatal, and femoral. A hiatal hernia occurs in the diaphragm muscle and allows a portion of the stomach to herniate into the chest. Most of these are asymptomatic, meaning a person does not experience any common symptoms.
If left untreated a hernia will gradually increase in size allowing internal organs such as the small or large intestines to protrude through the hernia and become more painful. Sometimes the muscle will trap the bowel within it. This is called an incarcerated hernia. Sometimes an incarcerated hernia could lead to a strangulated hernia where the blood supply to the bowel is cut off causing the bowel to become gangrenous. When this happens, an emergency operation is necessary to repair the hernia and remove the gangrenous bowel.
In most cases a hernia repair is an outpatient procedure. So, there is no need to spend the night in the hospital. The most common way to repair a hernia is with mesh. The mesh is a thin sheet of synthetic material fitted to overlap the hernia. Over the next 3 months the mesh becomes incorporated in the surrounding tissue making a strong repair and a decreased likelihood of the hernia recurring.
Hernias cannot fix themselves, so surgery is necessary to treat symptomatic ones. In some cases, depending on your age, work status, lack of symptoms and other health problems, hernias can be safely watched.

In June of 2021, the City of Wakefield received a warning letter from the Kansas Department of Health and Environment regarding changes made to water quality standards for ammonia in wastewater treatment facilities.
The letter states that as a result of the new criteria, all NPDES permits in Kansas are now being reissued with more stringent effluent limitations for ammonia. The letter added that a review of effluent history of the Wakefield wastewater treatment lagoon for ammonia indicated the treatment facility can not meet the new limitations.
Wakefield’s Mayor, Leza Chryssovergis, said the Wakefield City Council and herself did not elect to undertake the project, but were required by the KDHE to make updates to Wakefield’s wastewater treatment facilities. Chryssovergis said the project is continuing to move forward now that a loan agreement with the KDHE has been signed and the City is in the process of purchasing the land necessary for the new lagoons.
At the time of writing, the KDHE’s letter to the City of Wakefield notes that roughly a third of the existing municipal discharging lagoon systems in Kansas could not meet the new ammonia limitations. | <urn:uuid:ae379a82-cfe7-4f7e-ad67-001fe6ff268a> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://kclyradio.com/clay-county/wakefield-lagoon-expansion-due-to-kdhe-regs-says-wakefield-mayor/ | 2024-04-18T06:29:12Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.950963 | 242 |

A federal grand jury in Topeka has indicted James and Equanda Bradford, of Junction City, for fraudulently obtaining disability benefits from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), according to the United States Attorney. The charges include conspiracy and theft of public money, property, or records.
According to court documents, James, a U.S. Army veteran, and Equanda provided false information to the VA regarding his caregiver needs and her caregiving functions. This led to the couple receiving $172,426 in disability compensation they were not entitled to. The indictment underscores allegations of deceitful practices in obtaining VA benefits.
The Department of Veterans Affairs – Office of Inspector General and the General Services Administration – Office of Inspector General are investigating the case. | <urn:uuid:9caf8c80-a450-432a-b540-5e757029f669> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://kclyradio.com/top-stories/junction-city-couple-indicted-for-deceiving-va/ | 2024-04-18T07:03:30Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.948606 | 156 |
ContactDutch and Belgians, divided by a common language
When the business community requested a more in-depth lecture about the differences between the Dutch and Belgians when it comes to living and working together, Harry rose to the task.
He read a multitude of literature, including Chamber of Commerce reports, political essays and comparative reflections by philosophers, expats, businessmen, etc. Websites were browsed and interviews were conducted.
All this resulted in a comparative seminar that examines the human differences between Belgians and the Dutch as well as political, cultural and economic differences.
Because it's possible that
Flemings and Walloons have everything in common except their language,
Flemings and the Dutch have nothing in common except their language!
So the lecture ‘Dutch and Belgians, divided by a common language !’ was born.
This talk explains why things can go wrong in ‘mixed’ companies or why misunderstandings can appear. After all, North and South are not the same!
But what can be done about it? How can we optimise those relationships? Through improved communication and understanding each other better!
That's the aim of this seminar.
A mirror is held up to both nationalities in a fun way. They'll discover that the differences between Belgians and the Dutch are/can be a real European strength. After all, weren't we the ones who started building the first piece of ‘united Europe’ via the BENELUX immediately after the Second World War!?!
Harry van Hest is a real Fleming, but his grandparents were from Tilburg/Holland. Fifty percent of the blood flowing through his veins is Dutch.
Years of holidays with family in the Netherlands have given him invaluable experience.
In addition, he has been giving talks, seminars and workshops in Belgium and the Netherlands for years. So Harry feels at home above and below the ‘rivers’.
But he was born and raised in Antwerp and this is also where he lives and works. And as you know perhaps, throughout history, Antwerp has always been the Belgian gateway to the Netherlands.
1) Seminar 60 - 90 minutes.
2) Extra 1: A Quiz
If desired this talk can be followed by an interactive quiz that involves EVERYONE in the audience via the ‘Yes & No’ or the ‘Hat on - Hat off’ formula (duration: 20 - 30 minutes)
3) Extra 2: Seminar combined and aimed at visiting Antwerp
Harry has developed a specific programme for Dutch groups that visit Antwerp. It starts with the seminar mentioned above or an adapted formula that emphasises traces of 'Holland' in Antwerp. (‘What Antwerp's residents don't know (or don't want to know), what the Dutch must know’).
After this talk Harry accompanies groups through Antwerp for an idiosyncratic view of the city. He weaves together economics, politics, culture, all things culinary (including beer tasting sessions) and lots of humour.
If companies/groups want to add a dinner formula or other tourist extras like a stay in Antwerp, Harry can provide a customised programme.

Coping Mechanisms for Palliative Care Patients
Palliative care represents a compassionate approach to medicine, focusing on providing relief from the symptoms and stress of a serious illness. One of the core components of palliative care is supporting patients emotionally and psychologically as they navigate this challenging period. Developing robust coping mechanisms is essential for patients, their families, and carers to enhance quality of life and foster resilience.
Before delving into coping mechanisms, it is crucial to understand what palliative care entails. It is an interdisciplinary medical care provided to those with life-limiting illnesses, with the goal of improving quality of life for both the patient and the family. It addresses the whole person, encompassing physical, psychosocial, and spiritual needs.
Encouraging patients to express their emotions can significantly ease their mental burden. Open communication with healthcare professionals, family members, or support groups provides a safety net that can help manage fear, anxiety, and depression.
Skilled counsellors or psychologists trained in palliative care can offer professional guidance. They build strategies tailored to individual needs, assisting in emotional regulation and offering therapeutic interventions such as cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT).
Many patients find comfort in exploring their spiritual beliefs. Spiritual care services assist with meaning-making and connection, which can be pillars of strength for both patients and families.
Meditation and mindfulness can nurture inner peace, offering respite from physical pain and mental turmoil. These practices promote relaxation and can help patients achieve a calmer state of mind.
Effective pain management is paramount in palliative care. Personalised pain control plans, including medications and alternative therapies, ensure that patients are as comfortable as possible.
Techniques such as deep breathing exercises, gentle yoga, and aromatherapy can aid in reducing tension and promoting relaxation, contributing positively to a patient’s overall well-being.
Despite illness, engaging in enjoyable activities tailored to a patients' ability can provide a sense of normalcy and fulfillment. Whether it's listening to music, creating art, or enjoying nature, these activities can be therapeutic.
Creating a comfortable living environment tailored to the patient's needs can have profound effects on their ability to cope. Simple adjustments such as proper lighting, accessible facilities, and a serene atmosphere can make a significant difference.
Maintaining social connections with friends and family can buoy a patient's spirits. Support from loved ones provides a network of care and a sense of belonging.
Community resources that offer practical and emotional support, such as home care services and peer support groups, are invaluable. They can reduce the family's burden and provide companionship and understanding for the patient.
Knowledge is empowering. Providing clear, honest information about the illness and treatment options can help patients and families make informed decisions and reduce uncertainty and anxiety.
Engaging in advanced care planning, including discussing preferences for future care, can offer patients a sense of control and alleviate stress for both themselves and their families.
Coping with a serious illness is never easy. However, with the support of a dedicated palliative care team and by employing effective coping mechanisms, patients can find ways to manage their experiences with dignity and grace. The strategies offered by palliative care are diverse—ranging from medical interventions to improve physical comfort, to psychological and spiritual support that nurtures inner strength. Together, they create a multidimensional support system that helps patients and their families confront the challenges of serious illnesses with resilience and hope.

Can You Drink Kombucha and Coffee Together? A Closer Look at the Potential Combination
My love for both kombucha and coffee has led me to wonder if it’s possible to enjoy these two beverages together. On one hand, kombucha is a fermented tea known for its many health benefits, while on the other hand, coffee is a beloved caffeinated drink that offers a much-needed energy boost. In this article, we will explore whether or not it is safe and healthy to drink kombucha and coffee in combination.
The Benefits of Kombucha
Before we delve into the potential combination, let’s first take a closer look at the benefits of drinking kombucha. Kombucha is made by fermenting sweetened tea with the help of a SCOBY (symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast). This fermentation process creates a unique beverage that is rich in probiotics, antioxidants, and organic acids.
One of the main benefits of kombucha is its probiotic content. Probiotics are live bacteria and yeast that promote a healthy gut microbiome. A balanced gut microbiome has been linked to improved digestion, immune function, and mental health.
Kombucha is also known for its detoxifying properties. The fermentation process produces organic acids such as acetic acid, glucuronic acid, and lactic acid, which help detoxify the liver and remove harmful toxins from the body.
Furthermore, kombucha is a great source of antioxidants. Antioxidants protect the body from free radicals, which are unstable molecules that can cause damage to cells and contribute to aging and disease.
The Effects of Coffee
Now, let’s shift our focus to coffee and its effects on the body. Coffee contains caffeine, a natural stimulant that can increase alertness and improve focus. When consumed in moderation, coffee has been linked to several health benefits.
Firstly, coffee has been associated with a reduced risk of developing certain diseases, including type 2 diabetes, Parkinson’s disease, and certain types of cancer. The antioxidants found in coffee contribute to its protective effects.
Moreover, coffee has been shown to enhance cognitive function. The caffeine in coffee stimulates the central nervous system, leading to increased mental alertness, concentration, and memory.
On the other hand, excessive consumption of coffee can lead to negative side effects such as insomnia, jitteriness, and increased heart rate. It is important to consume coffee in moderation and be mindful of your body’s tolerance to caffeine.
The Potential Combination
Now that we have explored the individual benefits and effects of kombucha and coffee, it’s time to answer the pressing question: Can you drink kombucha and coffee together?
There is no definite answer to this question as it depends on various factors such as personal tolerance to caffeine and overall health. However, it is generally safe to consume kombucha and coffee in moderation.
Timing is Key
If you decide to combine the two beverages, it is essential to consider the timing. Drinking kombucha and coffee simultaneously may not be ideal as the acid in kombucha can potentially interfere with the absorption of caffeine.
It is recommended to consume coffee in the morning to take advantage of its energizing effects. Save your kombucha for later in the day when your caffeine levels have started to decrease. This way, you can enjoy the benefits of both beverages without any potential interference.
Keep Hydration in Mind
Both kombucha and coffee have slight diuretic effects, meaning they can increase urine production and potentially lead to dehydration if consumed in excess. Therefore, it is crucial to stay hydrated by drinking water alongside these beverages.
Listen to Your Body
As with any dietary decision, it is crucial to listen to your body and understand how it reacts to certain combinations. Some individuals may experience digestive discomfort or caffeine sensitivity when drinking kombucha and coffee together. If you notice any adverse effects, it may be best to consume them separately.
The Bottom Line
In conclusion, drinking kombucha and coffee together is generally safe and can be enjoyed in moderation. Both beverages offer unique health benefits and can be a refreshing addition to your daily routine.
However, it is important to consider timing, stay hydrated, and listen to your body’s response. If you have any specific health concerns or dietary restrictions, it is always best to consult with a healthcare professional before making any significant changes to your diet.
Remember, balance is key, and enjoying kombucha and coffee separately or together should enhance your overall well-being and bring joy to your daily routine. | <urn:uuid:8f169fc8-e676-4230-a462-34cec0e4725c> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://kitchensurfers.com/can-you-drink-kombucha-and-coffee/ | 2024-04-18T08:24:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.944616 | 947 |

Music Teacher Scares Off Bear Using Nothing But a Trombone
If you live in the right area, you know that your trash receptacles, especially if it's a dumpster that takes a lot of food, work like a bear magnet. Schools are no exception to bears breaking into dumpsters, but one music teacher decided he had enough.
Over the course of a few days, a black bear kept showing up at St. John's Academy in Shawnigan Lake to try and get into the school's trash.
The first time the bear showed up, the school restricted the movement of students, not allowing them to go from class to class until the bear had left the area. Once it realized it wasn't getting into the cans, it left.
A few days later, on May 27th, the bear was back and ready for a snack.
Music teacher Tristan Clausen said one of his students had just left out of the outside door, but turned back into the classroom when she saw the bear was hanging around outside.
“I have a saxophone, a trumpet and a trombone behind my desk, so I grabbed the largest one that could make the most noise, which was the trombone, and started playing it as loud as I could as I walked toward the bear,” Clausen said. “I was thinking at the time that I should have learned the A&W theme song beforehand. Apparently, the bear didn’t care for my playing because he ran into the woods and I haven’t seen it since.”
Clausen said he wasn't too worried about the bear during the encounter.
“I wasn’t far from the door, but I could tell that the bear was frightened, which is why I wasn’t frightened myself,” he told VicNews. | <urn:uuid:dbaaaaa5-8989-485d-9108-7a4341fa655f> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://krna.com/music-teacher-scares-off-bear-using-nothing-but-a-trombone/ | 2024-04-18T07:16:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.989662 | 382 |

I have sensitive and acne-prone skin, this SPF blends very smoothly, doesn't irritate my skin. Also is very good as a base for your makeup, doesn't leave any flakes on the face. There isn't any scent, it doesn't make your face white, overall, I'm very satisfied.
I finally found a quality SPF that doesn't stick, spreads well, doesn't leave any film/traces. It is perfect under makeup. I recommend
Daily use, good product. It is recommended 💖
I am incredibly happy that after about 3 years I finally found an spf that suits me thanks to the reviews! light and that's the most for me :)
I highly recommend this cream. I have been using it for several months and I am very satisfied. It has a nice consistency and is similar to a regular cream (does not leave white marks like most SPFs) and moisturizes the skin well. It is also great for the summer because it is not noticeable and does not have a "mask" effect on the face. I highly recommend:)
At first I was very skeptical, as I have sensitive, acne-prone skin and zero experience with Korean cosmetics, but this SPF is really good. A light cream, it absorbs nicely into the skin, does not burden it in any way, dulls it, does not smell, does not sting and, above all, does not create new acne!
I tested many SPFs, from the less popular ones to the more popular ones, but something always didn't suit me. This one is fantastic - it absorbs great, leaves a natural finish, it is practically unnoticeable after absorption. I highly recommend.
I have to agree with all the positive opinions, the sunscreen is light, absorbs quickly and does not leave the skin greasy
It has a very pleasant texture, just right for oily skin types, I recommend it
I already have the umpteenth pack. I have combination to acne prone skin and this cream is one of the few that doesn't break out and make my acne worse. It absorbs beautifully in no time, I definitely recommend it💗 | <urn:uuid:52479d43-b84b-4fac-a349-62a35bb9cbe7> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://ksisters.sk/en/product/beauty-of-joseon-relief-sun-rice-probiotics | 2024-04-18T08:07:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.975918 | 482 |

In WEC Carolina Energy Solutions LLC v. Miller, 2012 WL 3039213 (4th Cir) decided July 26, 2012, the Fourth Circuit sided with the Ninth Circuit in deciding that the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (“CFAA”) does not apply to employees and former employees who were authorized to access the employer’s electronic information. The decision stands in contrast to the position taken by the Seventh Circuit in Int’l Airport Ctrs., LLC v. Citrin, 440 F.3d 418, 420–21 (7th Cir.2006). The Fourth Circuit rejects the interpretation of the CFAA taken by the Seventh Circuit, which interprets the CFAA much more broadly. The Seventh Circuit concludes that an employee’s misappropriation of electronic information from his employer is a breach of the employee’s duty of loyalty that immediately terminates his agency relationship and with it his authority to access the laptop, because the only basis of his authority had been that relationship.
WEC Carolina Energy Solutions Inc. argued that its former employee violated the CFAA’s ban on access “without authorization” by taking files from his work computer to a rival company. The employer had argued in the District Court that by misappropriating the information, Miller voided his agreement with the company, and, therefore, he was no longer permitted to access his computer under the CFAA. The District court rejected that interpretation of the CFAA and the Fourth Circuit affirmed. In so ruling the Court “ adopt[s] a narrow reading of the terms “without authorization” and “exceeds authorized access” and hold[s] that they apply only when an individual accesses a computer without permission or obtains or alters information on a computer beyond that which he is authorized to access.”
The Fourth Circuit, like the Ninth and Seventh Circuits, found the crux of the issue presented to be “the scope of ‘without authorization’ and ‘exceeds authorized access,’” but the Fourth Circuit finds the Ninth Circuit argument in United States v. Nosal, 676 F.3d 854, 863 (9th Cir.2012) (en banc), the better interpretation of “authorization” as being “that an employee is authorized to access a computer when his employer approves or sanctions his admission to that computer. Thus, he accesses a computer ‘without authorization’ when he gains admission to a computer without approval. Similarly, we conclude that an employee ‘exceeds authorized access’ when he has approval to access a computer, but uses his access to obtain or alter information that falls outside the bounds of his approved access. Notably, neither of these definitions extends to the improper use of information validly accessed. (citations omitted.)” Unlike the Ninth Circuit, however, which was willing to find that a CFAA violation could be established where an employee exceeded his authority under a company access policy, the Fourth Circuit ruling is even more restrictive than the Ninth Circuit’s view. The Fourth Circuit “adopt[s] a narrow reading of the terms ‘without authorization’ and ‘exceeds authorized access’ and hold that they apply only when an individual accesses a computer without permission or obtains or alters information on a computer beyond that which he is authorized to access.”
Given that the CFAA has both criminal and civil liability the Fourth Circuit chose to strictly construe the language. Even “under the Nosal panel’s approach, because [the employee] obtained information ‘in a manner’ that was not authorized (i.e., by downloading it to a personal computer), he nevertheless would be liable under the CFAA. See § 1030(a)(2)(C). Believing that Congress did not clearly intend to criminalize such behavior, we decline to interpret ‘so’ as ‘in that manner.’” The bottom line—the Fourth Circuit approach, “reject[s] an interpretation of the CFAA that imposes liability on employees who violate a use policy, choosing instead to limit such liability to individuals who access computers without authorization or who obtain or alter information beyond the bounds of their authorized access.”
While the lines of the split in Circuits has become more defined with WEC Carolina Energy Solutions LLC, predicting what the Supreme Court will do with that split is another story. My money is on Judge Posner’s interpretation in International Airport Centers, partly because he is a brilliant jurist and I practice in the Seventh Circuit, but mostly because that is the interpretation that expands an employer’s arsenal of protections against cheating employees. However, until the fat lady [U.S. Supreme Court] sings employers should continue to draft and implement a computer access and use policy for its employees that assumes that a well drafted policy violated by an employee can be enforced under the CFAA, so long as the employer can demonstrate $5,000 in damages to the employer resulted from the employee’s actions.

Nourishing the Earth and Your Flock: The Environmental Benefits of Feeding Chickens Black Soldier Fly Larvae Reared on Food Waste
As conscientious pet owners, we are constantly seeking ways to minimize our environmental impact while ensuring the well-being of our animals. When it comes to pet chickens, incorporating sustainable and eco-friendly practices into their care can have a positive ripple effect. One such practice is feeding chickens Black Soldier Fly Larvae (Hermetia illucens) reared on food waste. In this article, we will explore the environmental benefits of this feeding approach and why it is good for the planet.
Utilising Food Waste: Food waste is a significant global problem, contributing to landfills and greenhouse gas emissions. By feeding Black Soldier Fly Larvae reared on food waste to your chickens, you directly address this issue. Black soldier fly larvae are incredibly efficient at converting organic waste into protein-rich biomass. By diverting food waste from landfills and utilising it as larval feed, you not only reduce methane emissions but also contribute to the circular economy by upcycling food waste into valuable protein sources.
Reducing Landfill Burden: When organic waste such as fruit and vegetable scraps, leftover grains, and other food by-products end up in landfills, they decompose under anaerobic conditions, releasing methane—a potent greenhouse gas. Methane significantly contributes to global warming and climate change. By feeding Black Soldier Fly Larvae with food waste, you divert this organic material away from landfills, effectively reducing methane production and alleviating the burden on our environment.
Sustainable Protein Source: Traditional livestock farming relies heavily on resource-intensive protein sources such as soybeans and fishmeal, leading to deforestation, habitat destruction, and overfishing. Feeding chickens Black Soldier Fly Larvae provides a sustainable alternative. These larvae can be reared on a variety of food waste, including fruit and vegetable scraps, grain waste, and discarded bakery items. By utilising these larvae as a protein source, you reduce the demand for traditional protein sources and contribute to sustainable agriculture practices.
Water Conservation: Livestock farming, including chicken production, requires substantial amounts of water for feed production, animal hydration, and cleaning. However, rearing black soldier fly larvae for chicken feed is far less water-intensive compared to traditional protein sources. Larvae production requires minimal water, especially when compared to the water-intensive nature of growing crops like soybeans. By opting for Black Soldier Fly Larvae as chicken feed, you indirectly conserve water resources and help mitigate water scarcity challenges.
Nutrient Cycling and Fertilizer Production: The excrement from chickens fed Black Soldier Fly Larvae reared on food waste, can serve as a valuable nutrient-rich fertilizer. Chicken manure, combined with larvae castings, creates a potent natural fertilizer that can be used to nourish gardens and agricultural fields. By utilising chicken waste in this manner, you close the nutrient cycle, reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers and minimizing nutrient runoff into water bodies, which can lead to pollution

Feeding chickens Black Soldier Fly Larvae reared on food waste is a commendable practice for environmentally conscious poultry enthusiasts. By diverting food waste from landfills, reducing methane emissions, conserving water, and contributing to sustainable agriculture, you actively promote a healthier planet.
Additionally, the nutrient cycling potential of chicken manure combined with larvae castings provides an opportunity for sustainable fertilization practices. By incorporating this sustainable feeding approach, you demonstrate how small changes in our daily routines can make a significant positive impact on both our pet chickens' health and the health of our planet. | <urn:uuid:7254032f-24e9-489e-b85c-c37a958ccff0> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://larvalicious.com.au/blogs/news/why-feeding-your-pet-chickens-on-black-soldier-fly-larvae-is-good-for-your-chickens-and-for-the-planet | 2024-04-18T06:53:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.908564 | 795 |

Discovering the Best Dry Dog Food for Puppies
Bringing a new puppy into your home is an exciting and rewarding experience. As a responsible pet owner, one of the most crucial decisions you'll make is selecting the right food for your young companion. A well-balanced, nutritionally complete dry dog food is essential for your puppy's growth, development, and overall health. Here's a comprehensive guide to help you choose the best dry dog food for your precious pup.
Consider Your Puppy's Breed
When looking for the best dry dog food for puppies, it’s essential to keep in mind that different dog breeds have different nutritional needs. For instance, large-breed puppies require a diet with controlled calcium and phosphorus levels to support healthy bone development. Smaller breeds may have higher metabolisms and may need more calorie-dense foods. Ensure the packaging specifies that the food is suitable for puppies of your pet’s size.
Read the Ingredient List
The first five ingredients listed on the packaging are the most important. Look for high-quality protein sources like chicken, beef, or fish. These should be the primary ingredients. When it comes to by-products, some can be both safe and nutritious, but it may be best to avoid foods that list vague by-product ingredients like "meat by-product." Whole grains and vegetables should also be present to provide essential vitamins and minerals. (1)
Check for AAFCO Certification
The Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO) plays a pivotal role in ensuring the nutritional adequacy of pet food in the United States. Their established guidelines and standards are designed to safeguard the health and well-being of pets across the country. When choosing dry dog food for your puppy, paying attention to AAFCO certification is a crucial step.
What Does AAFCO Certification Mean?
When a pet food product carries an AAFCO statement, it signifies that the food has undergone rigorous testing and meets the nutritional requirements deemed necessary for a specific life stage, such as puppyhood. In the case of puppies, the food should be labeled as "complete and balanced" according to AAFCO standards for healthy growth. (4)
Avoid Artificial Additives
Steer clear of foods with artificial colors, flavors, and preservatives. Natural alternatives are typically safer and healthier for your puppy. These can be identified on the ingredient list and are usually named, such as "rosemary extract" or "vitamin E."
Additives you’ll want to avoid include BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole), BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene), nitrites, nitrates, MSG, melamine, ethoxyquin, MSG, and propyl gallate. (2)
Consider Special Dietary Needs
Every puppy is unique, so there’s a possibility that your pet may have specific dietary needs due to allergies, food sensitivities, and existing health conditions. In these situations, it’s crucial to work with a veterinarian to select the best dry dog food for your puppy.
Keep the following in mind:
- Allergies and Sensitivities: If your puppy has a reaction to common triggers like wheat, soy, or certain animal proteins like chicken or beef, you may need to provide a hypoallergenic or limited-ingredient diet. These specialized diets feature alternative protein and carbohydrate sources so that puppies become less likely to have an allergic reaction when eating these varieties. (3)
- Digestive Health: For puppies with sensitive stomachs or frequent digestive upsets, the best dry dog food option may be one with easily digestible proteins. Look for labels that mention “digestive support” to try one of these options.
- Joint and Bone Health: Larger breeds are sometimes prone to joint issues or bone-related health conditions. If you have a large breed puppy, a diet with controlled calcium and phosphorus levels is essential. These nutrients help to support proper bone development without putting added stress or strain on a puppy’s growing joints.
- Weight Management: If your puppy’s breed is prone to obesity or weight management has become a concern, you may want to choose a food blend formulated for weight control. These diets often come with reduced calorie content, though they still provide a puppy with the nutrients needed for optimal growth.
- Medical Conditions: Puppies with specific medical conditions like kidney disorders, heart issues, or diabetes may need a special diet tailored to his or her unique needs. In situations like these, consult with your veterinarian to find the best dry dog food for puppies with special needs.
- Prescription Diets: In circumstances where a puppy lives with a severe health condition, working with a veterinarian is a must. Upon evaluating your puppy’s needs, your vet may recommend a specialized diet that only a veterinarian can prescribe. (5)
Compare Price and Value
When shopping for the best dry dog food for puppies, it’s important to note that while cost should not be the sole determinant, it's essential to consider your budget. High-quality dog food may seem expensive upfront, but it often means better health and fewer vet bills in the long run. Do your best to choose a puppy food option that provides value and adequate nutrition but does not break the bank.
Puppies can have sensitive digestive systems, so a sudden change in food is not the best way to introduce a new diet to a young dog. When switching your puppy to a new food, do so gradually over a period of about 7-10 days to prevent digestive upset. Start by mixing a small amount of your puppy’s current food with the new product you’ve chosen. Over time, add a little more of the new food and reduce the amount of the old food you’re giving. Keep up the process until you have fully replaced the old food with the new food. (6)
Monitor Your Puppy's Progress
Keep an eye on your puppy's weight, coat condition, energy level, and overall health. If you notice any adverse reactions or sudden changes such as diarrhea, vomiting, gas, or bloating, reach out to your veterinarian for advice. He or she will likely be able to help you transition your puppy from one food to another in a way that benefits your pet and causes as little digestive upset as possible.
Choosing the right dry dog food for your puppy is a significant step towards ensuring a happy and healthy life. Remember to consult your veterinarian for specific advice tailored to your puppy's unique needs. With careful consideration and proper nutrition, you'll be setting the foundation for a long, happy life together.

Securing workload identities
Microsoft Entra ID Protection can detect, investigate, and remediate workload identities to protect applications and service principals in addition to user identities.
A workload identity is an identity that allows an application or service principal access to resources, sometimes in the context of a user. These workload identities differ from traditional user accounts as they:
- Can’t perform multifactor authentication.
- Often have no formal lifecycle process.
- Need to store their credentials or secrets somewhere.
These differences make workload identities harder to manage and put them at higher risk for compromise.
Detections are visible only to Workload Identities Premium customers. Customers without Workload Identities Premium licenses still receive all detections but the reporting of details is limited.
ID Protection detects risk on single tenant, third party SaaS, and multi-tenant apps. Managed Identities are not currently in scope.
To make use of workload identity risk, including the new Risky workload identities blade and the Workload identity detections tab in the Risk detections blade in the portal, you must have the following.
- Workload Identities Premium licensing: You can view and acquire licenses on the Workload Identities blade.
- One of the following administrator roles assigned
- Security Administrator
- Security Operator
- Security Reader Users assigned the Conditional Access administrator role can create policies that use risk as a condition.
Workload identity risk detections
We detect risk on workload identities across sign-in behavior and offline indicators of compromise.
Detection name | Detection type | Description |
Microsoft Entra threat intelligence | Offline | This risk detection indicates some activity that is consistent with known attack patterns based on Microsoft's internal and external threat intelligence sources. |
Suspicious Sign-ins | Offline | This risk detection indicates sign-in properties or patterns that are unusual for this service principal. The detection learns the baselines sign-in behavior for workload identities in your tenant. This detection takes between 2 and 60 days, and fires if one or more of the following unfamiliar properties appear during a later sign-in: IP address / ASN, target resource, user agent, hosting/non-hosting IP change, IP country, credential type. Because of the programmatic nature of workload identity sign-ins, we provide a timestamp for the suspicious activity instead of flagging a specific sign-in event. Sign-ins that are initiated after an authorized configuration change might trigger this detection. |
Admin confirmed service principal compromised | Offline | This detection indicates an admin selected 'Confirm compromised' in the Risky Workload Identities UI or using riskyServicePrincipals API. To see which admin confirmed this account compromised, check the account’s risk history (via UI or API). |
Leaked Credentials | Offline | This risk detection indicates that the account's valid credentials leaked. This leak can occur when someone checks in the credentials in public code artifact on GitHub, or when the credentials are leaked through a data breach. When the Microsoft leaked credentials service acquires credentials from GitHub, the dark web, paste sites, or other sources, they're checked against current valid credentials in Microsoft Entra ID to find valid matches. |
Malicious application | Offline | This detection combines alerts from ID Protection and Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps to indicate when Microsoft disables an application for violating our terms of service. We recommend conducting an investigation of the application. Note: These applications show DisabledDueToViolationOfServicesAgreement on the disabledByMicrosoftStatus property on the related application and service principal resource types in Microsoft Graph. To prevent them from being instantiated in your organization again in the future, you can't delete these objects. |
Suspicious application | Offline | This detection indicates that ID Protection or Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps identified an application that might be violating our terms of service but hasn't disabled it. We recommend conducting an investigation of the application. |
Anomalous service principal activity | Offline | This risk detection baselines normal administrative service principal behavior in Microsoft Entra ID, and spots anomalous patterns of behavior like suspicious changes to the directory. The detection is triggered against the administrative service principal making the change or the object that was changed. |
Identify risky workload identities
Organizations can find workload identities flagged for risk in one of two locations:
- Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Security Reader.
- Browse to Protection > Identity Protection > Risky workload identities.
Microsoft Graph APIs
Export risk data
Organizations can export data by configurating diagnostic settings in Microsoft Entra ID to send risk data to a Log Analytics workspace, archive it to a storage account, stream it to an event hub, or send it to a SIEM solution.
Enforce access controls with risk-based Conditional Access
Using Conditional Access for workload identities, you can block access for specific accounts you choose when ID Protection marks them "at risk." Policy can be applied to single-tenant service principals registered in your tenant. Third-party SaaS, multi-tenanted apps, and managed identities are out of scope.
For improved security and resilience of your workload identities, Continuous Access Evaluation (CAE) for workload identities is a powerful tool that offers instant enforcement of your Conditional Access policies and any detected risk signals. CAE-enabled third party workload identities accessing CAE-capable first party resources are equipped with 24 hour Long Lived Tokens (LLTs) that are subject to continuous security checks. Refer to the CAE for workload identities documentation for information on configuring workload identity clients for CAE and up to date feature scope.
Investigate risky workload identities
ID Protection provides organizations with two reports they can use to investigate workload identity risk. These reports are the risky workload identities, and risk detections for workload identities. All reports allow for downloading of events in .CSV format for further analysis.
Some of the key questions to answer during your investigation include:
- Do accounts show suspicious sign-in activity?
- Have there been unauthorized changes to the credentials?
- Have there been suspicious configuration changes to accounts?
- Did the account acquire unauthorized application roles?
The Microsoft Entra security operations guide for Applications provides detailed guidance on the above investigation areas.
Once you determine if the workload identity was compromised, dismiss the account’s risk, or confirm the account as compromised in the Risky workload identities report. You can also select “Disable service principal” if you want to block the account from further sign-ins.
Remediate risky workload identities
- Inventory credentials assigned to the risky workload identity, whether for the service principal or application objects.
- Add a new credential. Microsoft recommends using x509 certificates.

Trump Picks “Scalia Clone” to Replace Scalia on the Supreme Court
January 31, 2017 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us
When the ghoulishly reactionary U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia died last year, Obama’s choice to replace him was the conservative, “bipartisan” Merrick Garland. Powerful sections of the ruling class treated Garland as absolutely unacceptable. Republicans stonewalled his nomination and gambled on getting the chance to put someone on the Court who would continue to advance their vision of a reactionary, Christian fascist America. On Tuesday, their wish came true. Donald Trump announced Antonin Scalia’s replacement: Scalia’s “clone”— Neil Gorsuch, a federal judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit.
As we wrote when Scalia died:
Until his death, Antonin Scalia was a “vicious operative for the capitalist-imperialist class who sat on their Supreme Court...” He “made his bones” by viciously opposing affirmative action and voting rights for Black and other minority people; the rights of women to abortion; the rights of gay and lesbian people to marry and raise children, and to generally live their lives free from government persecution; and the basic legal rights of defendants in criminal cases. He consistently fought for capital punishment, on and off the bench....
Like Scalia, Gorsuch promotes “originalism” and “textualism,” claiming the Court must interpret the Constitution literally, as the Founding Fathers understood it at the time it was written. As the Founding Fathers would have understood it? The Founding Fathers were fucking slave owners! Remember, they counted enslaved people as 3/5 of a human being; equality for women wasn’t even a thought for them. No, this approach to the Constitution is not “neutral,” as those like Gorsuch would have you believe.
The reality is that the claim that the U.S. Constitution established a vision and basis for a society where everyone is “equal” is profoundly untrue. From its writing and adoption in 1787 to today, this Constitution has provided the legal justifications and framework for a society torn by deep inequalities, and the preservation of a whole economic and social setup in which a relatively small section of society rules over the masses of people in an oppressive, exploitative system. (For much more on the U.S. Constitution, see the revcom.us series “The U.S. Constitution and the Constitution for the New Socialist Republic in North America (Draft Proposal): Two Constitutions, Two Different Systems,
Two Different Futures for African-American People.”) For complete series see: Introduction , Part 1 , Part 2 , Part 3 , and Part 4 .
Now, the ascension of the Trump-Pence regime is not just a giant step backward—while this is still the same system of capitalism-imperialism, what these rulers are embarking on is to smash the previous norms, including different rights that people have won through great struggle and sacrifice, and slamming into place horrendous new fascist norms. Gorsuch’s nomination to the Supreme Court has to be seen in that context.
A New Yorker magazine article at the time of Scalia’s death summed up:
Scalia’s dissents pounded home that the Supreme Court had no business deciding that the Constitution protected abortion or same-sex intimacy. “The Court has taken sides in the culture war,” he warned, denouncing a decision protecting adult intimacy from criminalization. In his view, the Court was “departing from its role of assuring, as neutral observer, that the democratic rules of engagement are observed.” He said the same about the constitutional status of women’s equality, which he classed among “the smug assurances” of our time. His originalism promised to hold the Constitution above politics, but his judicial opinions reinforced the impression that his judging was only politics by other means.
Following in Scalia’s footsteps, Gorsuch has portrayed himself as being “above politics” while his rulings have contributed to the Christian fascist vision of the dominance of Christianity in public life. Before the Supreme Court appointment, Gorsuch was perhaps best known for his role on the side of Hobby Lobby, a company owned by Christian fascists who claimed they should be exempt, in the name of “religious freedom,” from the federal regulation requiring corporations to include contraceptive costs in the medical coverage for employees. Gorsuch wrote a concurring opinion in the 10th Circuit decision in favor of Hobby Lobby. The U.S. Supreme Court, consistent with Gorsuch’s position, declared the primacy of Christianity over federal law and ordered the government to stop enforcement of the contraception rule on Hobby Lobby.
In another case, Gorsuch supported the right of a city government to allow a religious group to display a statue of the Ten Commandments in a public park in the name of “religious freedom.” But when another group asked to be able to display their statue, the city said “no.” Gorsuch’s opinion upheld the city’s “First Amendment right” to allow a religious group to display a Christian symbol that was acceptable to most of those in the community, while denying the right to another group.
In a call for sweeping changes to the courts, Gorsuch wrote an article for the National Review in 2005, titled “Liberals & Lawsuits,” attacking liberals for fighting for justice in the courts. He laid out his view, paralleling Scalia’s, that the courts should not play, nor be seen as playing, a role as a recourse against injustice—not just injustice carried out by individuals but by the state. And Gorsuch specifically included the question of same-sex marriage:
American liberals have become addicted to the courtroom, relying on judges and lawyers rather than elected leaders and the ballot box, as the primary means of effecting their social agenda on everything from gay marriage to assisted suicide to the use of vouchers for private-school education. This overweening addiction to the courtroom as the place to debate social policy is bad for the country and bad for the judiciary.
So, while openly supporting the expanding influence of Christian fundamentalism in public life, Gorsuch at the same time declares to everyone else: “Don’t come to the court looking for justice.” As the unfolding horror of this fascist regime continues and intensifies, Trump’s appointment of Gorsuch to the “highest court of the land” is an ominous development. It enables Scalia’s ugly legacy to continue—a Supreme Court judge who claims his philosophy puts him “above politics,” while using the U.S. Constitution to sanctify, and give the go-ahead for, great crimes against the people, and against humanity.

OS X Mountain Lion changes a lot of small things with the way the operating system works. It also locks down a lot of default behaviors that many people were used to in OS X Lion. Thankfully, a group over at Github has compiled a huge list of the command line tricks that still work in Mountain Lion.
We talked about some of our big Mountain Lion annoyances last week. Between that and the Q&A we did, it's clear that people are still looking for ways to customize Mountain Lion to their liking. This list of command line tricks will get you on your way. Open up Terminal (Applications > Utilities), and type any of the commands on the list. For instance, Mac owners might be annoyed by the "Do you want to open this application?" dialog. It's easy to disable. In Terminal, type:
defaults write com.apple.LaunchServices LSQuarantine -bool false
Most of these are the same commands as previous versions of OS X, but the list is getting updates with new tricks in Mountain Lion as well as having old tricks removed. With all the new features in Mountain Lion, it's only a matter of time before people start discovering some of the cool tricks you can use to customize it. Head over to Github for the full list.

Dear Annie: In your response to “Loss and Regret,” concerning a teenager being sexually abused by an older female, you dismissed the legal aspect of this out of hand. The older woman should be brought up on sexual abuse charges against a minor. Anything less would be sexist.
Men are sent to prison for this kind of act. A recent acquaintance of mine was just sentenced to life in prison for a similar act, with no physical evidence and only the word of the victim. Letting this older woman off the hook for her misdeeds with a 16-year-old would just be wrong. The law pertains to both males and females alike. — Concerned
Dear Concerned: Thank you for bringing this up. You are 100% correct that this woman should be held accountable. Many readers wrote to say that I dismissed the legal aspect of the case because of my intense focus on helping the man to heal emotionally. One of the best letters was written by an attorney from Portland, Oregon, who specializes in helping young victims of sexual abuse when they are older. Read on.
Dear Annie: As an attorney who represents victims of child sexual abuse in civil cases across the nation, I read with empathy and interest the recent letter from your reader, “Loss and Regret.”
There a couple of insights that I would like to share with your readers.
First, for victims of sexual abuse, delayed understanding about the impact of abuse is normal. According to Child USA, “Most child victims of sexual assault disclose … during adulthood, with a median age of 48 and an average age of 52.” This delayed disclosure phenomenon is the result of the unique and insidious nature of the trauma of child sexual abuse — which prevents victims from realizing that they have been injured often until decades after the abuse itself has stopped. For victims of childhood sexual abuse, subconscious defense mechanisms mask the root cause of the problems they are experiencing and prevent the victim from understanding the causal relationship between the abuse and the injuries (i.e., that the sexual abuse from childhood is causing the adult depression, anxiety, etc.).
As our society becomes more aware of both the prevalence of child abuse and the reality of delayed understanding by victims, the national trend is toward liberalizing and eliminating statutes of limitation. In the last several years, New York, New Jersey, North Carolina, California, Arizona, Arkansas, Maine, Montana and Louisiana have all passed legislation that gives victims of child sexual abuse an open “window” of time (ranging from one to three years) to pursue civil actions regardless of how long ago the abuse happened. I currently have the honor of representing victims in cases in each of these states.
Other states — like my home state of Oregon, as well as Washington, New Mexico and others — have for many years used what is known as a “discovery rule.” Discovery rules tie the time limit on a victim’s civil legal claims to the victim’s subjective delayed discovery of the long-term impacts they have suffered. This is another mechanism of giving victims more time and a greater opportunity for justice.
While not every state has helpful laws for victims (yet), the bottom line is that the law is changing in many states to give victims more time to come forward.
Of course, like in any legal case, the individual facts and circumstances vary, and I highly recommend that any victim of abuse consult with an attorney who is experienced in representing child abuse victims. These cases are unique, and the goal should be to advance the healing of the individual victim — which is a very personalized consideration. What is good for one victim may not be helpful for another. After everything else they have been through, victims of child abuse deserve compassionate expert advice so they can make informed decisions for themselves.
I commend “Loss and Regret” for speaking out about this difficult topic. It is only as our society increases our awareness of the pervasive problem of child sexual abuse — and reforms our laws to better support victims — that the next generation of children becomes safer. — Lawyer’s Perspective
Dear Lawyer’s Perspective: Thank you for such a clear and succinct summary.

On 22 February 2017, LINQ management conducted a training workshop on Horizon 2020 Financial Management at Goethe University in Frankfurt, Germany. The seminar was hosted by the University’s Research Service Centre (RSC) and aimed at supporting staff members involved in the administration of Horizon2020 projects with a targeted and hands-on training. The first part of the training was provided by Julia Buech of LINQ management and consisted of a session on the financial rules and regulation of the EC’s current Framework Programme – complemented by a detailed presentation of the specifics of H2020 financial reporting, including best practice tips and clear guidance on the Dos and Don’ts in financial management.
LINQ’s part of the seminar was followed in the afternoon by a practical session held by RSC representative Dr Marco Betz, who focussed on the internal grant reporting mechanism at Goethe University based on specific examples and gave attendees the opportunity to practice the reporting process through the set-up of a sample Horizon2020 financial report.
The form and structuring of the training workshop and the practical approach were well received by participants and the information provided will surely be a valuable help for the Goethe University staff in their day-to-day administration of Horizon2020 grants. | <urn:uuid:3fb9006d-6a65-4a0b-8f66-a4052e7dfcdc> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://linq-management.com/news/linq-training-on-horizon2020-financial-management.html | 2024-04-18T07:46:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.960809 | 255 |

“Fetish” singer Selena Gomez has just unveiled in a shocking Instagram post that she had a kidney transplant, which she required because of her battle with lupus. That happened during summer when she was laying low, and now we all know exactly why.
The 25-year-old actress got the new organ from one of her best friends, also The Secret Life of the American Teenager alum, Francia Raisa. She has always been open about struggling with lupus over the past few years, but this summer it got so bad that she had to have the transplant done.
The heartbreaking Instagram post shows Selena laying on a hospital bed with tubes stuck into her hands, and Francia, who also posted a heartfelt message on Instagram, was laying on another bed. The two held hands side by side.
She didn’t state when she had the procedure done, or how long she took to recover in hospital, but we cannot imagine the trauma she’s been through and are incredibly inspired by her strength. You go, girl. | <urn:uuid:b5586108-bb8f-4a06-a0a5-5f89e7f5cd14> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://lipstiq.com/153611/selena-gomez-reveals-kidney-transplant-amidst-battle-lupus/ | 2024-04-18T07:37:30Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.983486 | 220 |
As much as it’s exciting to travel across the world and see the sights, you have to admit, the most dreadful part of travelling is… travelling. Of course, getting there is half the fun, or so they say. But if there were a means for us to just teleport to a destination, I’d be the first to do it.
And don’t get me started on the hassle of taking a flight. The stress that our skin goes through on flights is just devastating. Sitting on a plane for hours in dry, recycled air can take a toll on your largest organ. Find out how:
How Does Air Travel Affect Your Skin?
Because flight cabins often have extremely low humidity, you are quite likely to have dry and parched skin. Low humidity draws moisture from the deepest layers of your skin, making a dry complexion seem and feel more dry. If you have oily skin, on the other hand, the absence of moisture in your skin will cause your face to get greasier since there is no moisture to pull from your skin.
Thus, it’s safe to say that airplanes can definitely cause chaos on all skin types.
But there’s a solution to this problem. If you’ve already booked your next ticket for your holiday and are concerned about how your skin will fare throughout the flight, we’ve made your life a lot easier by providing you with tips on how to take care of your skin before and during your flight.
Before Take Off
Prep Your Skin
Prepping your skin before your flight is extremely crucial considering that you basically need to pack everything your skin needs before you board your flight. Getting a good night’s sleep before leaving for the airport, as well as following your skincare regimen from beginning to end, is critical to preventing your skin from being overly dry on the flight.
Pro Tip: Load up your skin with deep-hydrating products such as toner and moisturizer, and lock it all up with your go-to sunscreen to seal all of that moisture in.
Try To Get A Window Seat During Check-In
Getting a window seat is vital to controlling the amount of UV rays you’re getting throughout the flight. Hence, why sunscreen is so important and should be the last step in your skincare routine. When you’re on an aircraft, you’re quite near the sun, which can cause rapid skin ageing and even increase your chances of acquiring skin cancer. So if you’re by the window, you can close the shade and protect yourself from the harmful UV lights.
Sanitise Your Seat
Go Naomi Campbell when you arrive at your seat. Sanitise TF out of your area, because you can only imagine how much germs, dirt, grime and oil is on that seat. Just use a pack of disinfectant wipes, and wipe every surface area you can before you take a seat and settle for a long journey to your well-deserved vacation.
Wear A Face Mask
If you don’t want to startle your neighbours, skip this step and instead, use a moisturising serum every hour during your journey. If you absolutely don’t care, smother your skin with a deep-hydrating face mask. Your skin is much more valuable in your life than how others see you, so face mask all the way, sis. Plus, landing with deeply hydrated and nourished skin is the goal here to start your vacation with.
Drink Lots Of Water
Do not skip on hydration. And drink only water – no alcohol, soda or even fruit juice. It is critical that you keep your body hydrated at all times during your travel. Not only does your skin require it, but so do your interior cells, so drink plenty of water when flying.
Get Some Much Needed Rest And Stretch Whenever You Can
With long hours on the plane, you may as well rest before beginning your vacation the instant your plane touches down. Bring an eye-pillow and a blanket, and you’ll be able to get the rest you need. Also, depending on the length of your trip, stretch your limbs to ensure that all of the blood in your body is adequately circulated. If necessary, walk along the aisle. Avoid sitting for extended periods of time to avoid feeling sluggish at the end of your journey.

Brace yourselves, type-A, spreadsheet-loving, think-of-everything planners friends! I say this with lots of love and understanding, but things will sometimes go differently on your wedding day than you’ve imagined and THAT’S OKAY! I know that can cause a lot of anxiety, but the truth is that no wedding goes 100% as planned, but often times that leaves space for a better flow of the day. Different can be MAGICAL- trust me!
There are many things that you can do to keep things from actually going “wrong” on your wedding day. One is proper planning, and the second is attitude.
TIP 1: PLAN AHEAD
It’s hard for things to go differently (and harder still for them to go wrong) if you’ve planned for different scenarios- Plan A, B, C, etc.
Thinking through the potential hiccups before your wedding week gives you enough time to prepare and make plans for them. Your rain plan may not be as exciting as your outdoor ceremony vision, but are there elements you can work into it, or photo opportunities later in the day where you can still get those epic ceremony shots, just a little differently than you’ve imagined.
Of course, it’s also critical to hire reliable, reputable vendors that communicate openly and often. You may not be able to control the weather, (but damn, do we wish we could!) but you can control who is on your vendor team.
For the day itself, if you have someone on your side who asks the questions you wouldn’t think to ask, finds solutions for different outcomes, and is resourceful in the moment, you don’t have to worry about the potential disasters or even the minor details. Delegate the stress, worry, and obsessing to someone who tackles problems for a living, and thrives finding creative solutions- i.e. our team!
You want to be able to relax on your wedding day. With the right planner, you may not even know things were headed down that wrong path; they should be handled before you even hear about them- hopefully the next day!
TIP 2: ADJUST YOUR MINDSET
A wedding has many elements- wedding party, guests, vendors, and venues.
As the two guests of honor, being upset is the worst thing you can be as hosts. Your guests will follow your lead- whether that means you are joyfully breaking it down on the dance floor or if you are sulking over the DJ playing your favorite song while you were in the bathroom.
If something doesn’t go according to plan- seek out your planner (most of the time we can help!), acknowledge your disappointment, and remember that sometimes things go differently than you expect. Also, please remember that even as planners, we aren’t mind readers! We will try our best to anticipate your every need, but if the music is too loud (for you) during dinner or you’d prefer a pinot noir to the chambourcin you’ve been served- just let us know and we will do everything we can to fix it.
Maybe it is something big, or it could be something smaller, like your bouquet isn’t exactly as you envisioned it. Is it still stunning? Appreciating the differences for what they are, rather than stressing about what could have been, makes a huge difference to your overall experience.
After lovingly and carefully planning your wedding, so many elements will be just as you imagined, and many more will be beyond your wildest dreams. Trust me when I say- we want your wedding to be exactly as you’ve planned, but we also want you to go into your wedding day with the tools and the understanding to make sure you have the best experience possible. Things might go differently. And it will be wonderful.
Want to make sure things go to plan? Of course, it can feel overwhelming to think through every possible scenario ahead of time, but don’t worry: that’s my job, not yours. Our team help couples think through questions and find solutions to any potential hiccups way in advance of the big day- we make the plans so you can focus all your energy on having the best day ever.
Be in the moment with your partner, your family that has flown in from across the country, and your best friends from high school. Soak in every precious moment of the big day- because it goes fast! I’ll be there with an emergency kit ready to pass out an Advil to your aunt, bobby pins to your best friend, and help your grandparents find the closest restroom. | <urn:uuid:216cd524-a5d3-41a9-8c39-66ee4cea93d8> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://lissamarieweddingsandevents.com/the-1-thing-to-remember-as-you-plan-your-wedding/ | 2024-04-18T08:47:20Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.963062 | 979 |

I love AndroidTV or GoogleTV or whatever its called next. I enjoy the interface, especially the latest one. My previous TVs have all been Sony for the most part anyway. Why? Well they are good tvs for one, but two they also run AndroidTV as their default dashboard. That means I can install all of the same apps and don't have to worry about compatiblity etc.
The problem though is that AndroidTV sucks or at least it was the last time I bought a high end tv. A Sony Bravia 4K LED TV from 2015. The way that Sony have implemented AndroidTV on their TVs is actually what made me invest in dedicated players such as the great NVIDIA Shield (2019) and the MiBox 4s. It is a massive indictment on Sony that my $100AUD AndroidTV player imported from overseas performs better than my ~$2000 (in 2015 dollars) Sony TV. It boggles my mind. It actually has made me rethink my recommendations on friends and family who ask my advice. In Sony's defence I have heard they "fixed" the performance issues in their newer lines of tvs.
When I say performance, I don't mean quality of the picture, sound or necessarily how Netlix runs but rather moving around the dashboard is glacially slow, like treacle. Its an abomination. I just updated my Sony Bravia 4K 2015 to Android 8.0 with a security patch of Jan 2020 (Don't get me started on that front). The perfomance is even worse.
Aside from the fact that LG have cornered the market in OLED panels, their WebOS feels so snappy in comparison. Now, I still just use the NVIDIA Shield so I essentially don't need to actually use the TVs own dashboard but WebOS actually makes me want to use unlike 2015 era Sony AndroidTV.

In cooperation with ABF Malmö, Ariella Percat and Fredrik Eklöf from Listeners Without Borders, conducted a pre-study in Namibia in April-May, 2015. Our aim was to lay the foundation for a project with the local CBO (Community Based Organisation) Pots of Hope, a project that the Olof Palme International Center is looking into financing.
During the pre-study, Pots of Hope, ABF Malmö and Listeners Without Borders conducted a baseline on children’s right and on gender based violence in Kamanjab. Kamanjab is a village in the rural region Kunene.
We also met with several NGOs in the capital Windhoek to gather information and investigate possible partnerships. Since the project may encounter children and women and men who have had their rights violated, we want to make sure we can have a good support and referral system in place, with for instance other NGOs.
We have gathered our daily reports on this website (see earlier dates in this blog) and on Facebook. | <urn:uuid:97e0c48e-45f7-4a81-83d3-ae10b4395542> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://listenerswithoutborders.org/namibian-womens-and-childrens-rights-project/ | 2024-04-18T07:18:39Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.952051 | 217 |

Weight loss is one of the most common goals among many individuals, but achieving that goal can often be difficult and frustrating. Everyone has their own opinion on what works best when it comes to losing weight, so it’s easy to get off track by all the conflicting advice as you try to make sense of it. If this sounds familiar, then you’re in luck: here are practical tips for achieving your desired weight that has been proven effective! You’ll learn how to optimize your diet, create better habits around physical activity and motivate yourself beyond the initial challenge -all with an eye toward permanent lifestyle changes. So read on and discover how these strategies can help make your journey easier and more successful.
1.Eat Healthy and Balanced Meals
Eating healthy is one of the most important steps for successful weight loss. Incorporating all the food groups into your diet is key. Eating various fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, dairy products, and healthy fats like olive oil will provide you with the essential nutrients needed to meet your body’s needs while aiding in weight loss. Additionally, it is important to balance your meals throughout the day, eating breakfast, lunch and dinner and then supplementing with three snacks between meals if desired. This ensures that you get adequate nutrition without overloading calories or unhealthy intake.
2.Drink Plenty of Water
Staying hydrated is necessary for weight loss success. Drinking plenty of water helps keep you full and prevents overeating at meals or snacking too often. Additionally, research shows that drinking H20 before meals may help reduce total calories consumed by up to 13%. Drinking cold water can also help boost metabolism as it requires more energy from the body to heat it than room-temperature water. Aim to drink eight glasses per day spread out evenly over your day for optimal benefits.
Exercise is an integral part of successful weight loss because it helps build muscle, boosts overall metabolism, and helps burn more fat even when inactive. Aim to get at least 30 minutes of physical activity most days of the week; this could be anything from running to yoga or cycling to strength training at home or in a gym setting. Not only will exercise help with weight loss, and it has numerous other health benefits, including reduced stress levels and improved mood. Try to find activities you enjoy, as this makes it easier to stay consistent with a routine over time rather than burning out quickly due to boredom or lack of interest.
4.Track What You Eat
Tracking your caloric intake is a great way to hold yourself accountable and monitor progress. Many apps make counting calories easier than ever, so consider downloading one for extra assistance. Keeping track of what you consume will help you stick to healthier foods and prevent overeating or indulging in unhealthy snacks too often.
5.Get Plenty of Sleep
Getting adequate sleep is important for healthy weight loss because it helps regulate hormones related to appetite and metabolism, influencing how we eat and process food. Aim for seven hours of quality shut-eye each night to optimize these hormones and reap weight loss benefits. Additionally, studies have found that getting enough sleep reduces cravings for unhealthy foods and snacks. So, ensure you’re giving your body the rest it needs to stay on track with your goals!
Seeking out support from friends and family is a great way to stay on track with your weight loss journey. Having people willing to listen, encourage or offer advice when needed can be beneficial. Support groups or Weight Watchers meetings are great resources for finding extra help and motivation as you progress through your plan. So remember to take advantage of these resources if available!
Above all, being patient and realistic with your weight loss goals is important. Weight loss takes time, especially when done healthily. Taking the necessary steps towards your goal is okay, but give yourself grace if progress is slower than expected or desired. Weight loss can be hard work, so don’t get discouraged if you don’t see results as quickly as hoped; remember that good things come to those who wait!
Weight loss is possible and can be done healthily. Weight loss requires dedication, consistency, and patience but remember to reward yourself! Follow the tips listed above to help you reach your weight loss goals, and don’t forget to take it day by day – the best things come with time! Good luck, and have fun on this journey!
What is the #1 most effective way to lose weight?
The most effective way to lose weight is to eat healthy, balanced meals and exercise regularly. Fad diets can help you lose weight in less time, but they are only sustainable for a short time and often result in weight gain once you stop following the diet.
How can I get weight loss fast?
Weight loss fast is not recommended because it can be unhealthy and cause you to lose weight quickly. The healthiest way to lose weight is through gradual changes.
Can I lose weight without exercise?
You can technically lose weight without exercise, but it is not recommended. Exercise helps to boost metabolism, which helps with overall weight loss and also helps to maintain muscle mass during the process. Additionally, exercise can help to increase energy levels and reduce stress, both of which are beneficial for weight loss efforts.
How much should I weigh?
Your ideal body weight depends on various factors such as age, height, gender, bone density and muscle mass. You can consult your doctor or nutritionist for guidance. Weight alone does not determine health; instead, focus on maintaining a healthy lifestyle through balanced eating habits and regular physical activity.
What are some exercises that can help with weight loss?
Many different types of exercises can help with weight loss. Some popular exercises include cardio, weightlifting, and Pilates.
Cardio exercises are a great way to burn calories and lose weight. They include activities such as running, biking, and swimming.
Weightlifting is another great way to lose weight. Lifting weights helps build muscle mass, which burns more calories throughout the day.
Pilates is a great exercise for toning muscles and burning calories. Pilates helps to strengthen the core muscles, which can help with weight loss. | <urn:uuid:bdb74785-ef22-4842-af61-f0b3ef8ca529> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://livenewworld.co.za/7-tips-for-weight-loss-that-actually-work/ | 2024-04-18T08:02:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.955239 | 1,260 |
The clocks have sprung forward and people are starting to spend more time outdoors again. Longer days and warmer weather make it easier to start going for walks, runs, and hikes. It’s only natural that many use Spring to start getting back into the habit of exercise.
But getting back into working out can be difficult. If you are not careful, beginning an exercise routine after prolonged inactivity can lead to injury. Beyond that, just fitting a workout into a busy day can be a challenge.
At Live Urgent Care, we focus on patient empowerment, educating our patients so they can take control of their own health. And few things can positively impact your health like a daily exercise routine.
In this article, we’ll discuss some important items to consider how to start exercising in the warmer spring months.
List Out The Benefits of Exercise
Most people view exercise as a chore that needs to be done. But getting your motivation right is key to sticking with a workout plan.
Before you chart out how to start exercising, begin with listing the benefits you can gain through regular exercise. Consistent exercise reduces your risk of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and even certain cancers. A daily exercise routine can also help you maintain a healthy weight, promote stronger muscles and bones, and regulate your sleep.
Assess Your Current Fitness Level
Every journey starts somewhere, and you need to be honest about where your fitness journey begins. If you attempt to run a marathon the first time you go for a run, you will likely injure yourself and not stick with running.
Begin by assessing your current level of fitness. Are you typically active, or do you have a desk job where you work from home? Have you kept a daily workout routine over the winter or are you starting over again? Each of those questions will help you assess where you should begin.
Develop Realistic Goals
A goal is a great motivation tool, but an unrealistic goal has the opposite effect. Think about what you want to achieve and try to write out some trackable, manageable steps towards that goal.
For example, if your goal is to lose 20 pounds, you should aim to lose only one to two pounds per week. Another example might include weight lifting. If you want to bench press a certain weight, you should increase the amount you lift slowly and over time.
Writing out realistic goals will keep you motivated and will be much more helpful in showing you if you are on the right track.
Just Start Somewhere
Every great journey starts small. And your workout plans do not need to start grand.
Small amounts of exercise add up over time, and consistency is far healthier than one big day a month. However small it feels, starting and staying with a workout plan will yield far more benefit than you might imagine.
At Live Urgent Care, we can help you get started. Our urgent care centers provide physicals and wellness exams to make sure you are ready for exercise. We also treat sports injuries in case you go a little too hard too quickly. You can walk in or book your appointment online to get started on your fitness journey together. | <urn:uuid:84fdc0ca-62e2-4155-a703-a8bbab015820> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://liveurgentcare.com/how-to-start-exercising-safely-this-spring/ | 2024-04-18T08:27:14Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.949161 | 637 |
Maintaining a healthy life balance isn’t only important for your overall happiness and wellbeing; it can also help you be more productive in your career or lead to business success. If you’re living a balanced life, you will be able to focus your attention on your goals, take productive actions, and manifest your dream life because your focus isn’t consumed by what’s causing you imbalance.
The big question is…What does a balanced life look like? More importantly, how do we go about achieving it?
That’s going to look and be different for every single person because we all have different interests and values. That being said, there are steps you can take to change what’s NOT working.
The key thing to remember is that balance is not a final goal, but an ongoing process. Rather than trying to stay balanced, think of yourself as practicing balance, over and over again.
Here are 5 steps you can take to cultivate balance in your everyday life:
1. Spend time with yourself and become more self-aware.
Making time for yourself is probably the hardest thing to do if you’re overworked and overwhelmed by life, but it’s so important for lowering your stress levels, increasing happiness, and fostering creativity. Also, spending time alone and learning about yourself allows you to celebrate who you are and connect to your authentic self. It takes courage to be the person you are, especially when there are pressures to live a life that you think others want you to have. If you find yourself getting stuck, meditation is a great way to find that stillness within- it meets you exactly where you’re at, with no judgment.
2. Write in a gratitude journal.
Gratitude has to be practiced to be effective. You’ve probably heard people say “what you think you create” or “where thoughts go energy flows.” The idea is that your thoughts are powerful, and when directed in a more positive direction, a new thought pattern is created. Practicing gratitude does this by shifting your perspective and improving your mood, which creates space for more joy. Before you know it, you’ll start noticing yourself come back to life. Writing one or two things you’re grateful for each day encourages you to start actively looking for things, people, and situations you’re grateful for, which, in turn, can encourage more positive and less negativity in your life.
3. Practice self-care.
We spend so much of our time doing things for others, which is why it’s so important to do something for yourself (and regularly, too). It doesn’t need to be costly; a glass of wine, a nice bath oil, a yummy candle, a nice Yinsa face cleanse or beautiful flowers will do the trick. Quiet time with yourself allows you to rejuvenate and refocus, which helps bring balance to your life.
4. Find what’s important to you.
Ask yourself the tough questions: What’s important? What isn’t important? What brings you value? What doesn’t bring you value? Is your time being spent doing things that bring you happiness, or is it being blocked by other things in your life? Be honest about the aspects of your life that are not working for you. You may end up cutting things out of your life or having to let people go, and know that’s normal. You want to hold onto things (and people) that matter most to you and let go of those that only bring you down.
5. Live life at your own pace and adjust over time.
Figuring out that pace might be a little bit rough at first, but it will be worth it! Listen to yourself and do what you need to. If you want to take it easy on a weekend, do it. Splurge on that iced coffee and croissant from the cafe down the street! Do what’s necessary to keep you sane and happy. At the same time, if you’re goal-driven and want to live your life with intention, it’s ok to focus more on work than play. This may change over time as you get a new job or move to a new city or pick up a new hobby. Allow those changes to happen naturally.
Life is constantly trying to throw us off balance, and it’s up to us to get back on track when that happens. When we do find that beautiful balance, it becomes much easier to be excited to live each day, and for the opportunities that lie ahead. It’s going to take some work at first, but once you discover what works for you to cultivate balance your life, you will be more empowered than ever to live your life this way forever. | <urn:uuid:6cc1e50f-3163-4f39-989a-a98952841ab9> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://liveyinsa.com/5-tips-for-cultivating-balance-in-your-everyday-life/ | 2024-04-18T08:35:03Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.953542 | 1,006 |

Ella Reed, ‘20
German Studies, Physics, and American Studies Major
Entering college I had no idea that I wanted to begin a degree in German Studies — all I knew was that I wanted to continue learning the language. After my first undergraduate year, I already felt like I was a part of the German Studies community. I instantly formed a close connection with my professors, many of whom I am still in touch with today, and decided to make German one of my majors. This decision significantly influenced my academic career at Richmond as well as my postgraduate opportunities.
With the encouragement from professors, I was able to complete the summer program in Berlin. There I lived with a host family that did not speak any English, which provided a full immersion experience that helped to solidify my conversational skills. This program really pushed me outside of my comfort zone and ignited a passion for other cultures and languages. A year and a half later, I returned to Europe to study in Vienna during the fall semester of my junior year. Thanks to the level of the courses taught at UR, I was fully equipped to take all of my classes in German. The presentations, debates, and readings assigned in the courses at UR more than prepared me for what was to come. I was also given the amazing opportunity to work as a Drill Instructor for two semesters my senior year. This allowed me to grow closer to the German Studies faculty and practice a different skill set.
My study abroad experiences were incredible, but it was when I started to consider postgraduate routes that my German major made all the difference. While I had always dreamed of receiving a Fulbright Grant following graduation, I truly never imagined I would reach the caliber of applicants needed to even make it past the first stage. It wasn’t until a German professor reached out encouraging me to apply that I decided to go for it. With the help of the rest of the faculty for the five months of working on the application, I received a Community-Based Combined Grant in Vienna, Austria. While there, I taught English to students ages 10-18, took classes at the University of Vienna, and worked with the international organization Refugees Welcome.
I have made so many connections through this program and would not be where I am today without it. When I return from Austria, I will be attending law school at Villanova University with a full scholarship. I plan to pursue a career in Immigration Law, which is largely due to my experiences abroad that I gained through German Studies.

German Studies, International Studies, and History Major
Majoring in German Studies unlocked priceless opportunities both during and after my time at Richmond. As an undergraduate, the rigorous curriculum equipped me with the linguistic and cultural competencies to complete two major research projects in Germany. I also availed myself of UR’s dynamic summer program in Berlin. My courses further fostered an interest in foreign cultures that led me on numerous additional international programs to countries including Poland and India.
With the support of the committed faculty, I won a Fulbright scholarship to teach English in Germany following graduation. There, I worked to foster cross-cultural exchange by instructing schoolchildren in the English language and American history. The advanced seminars in German Studies at Richmond, taught in very small classes and in close dialogue with professors, enabled me to comfortably take part in in complex discussions of history and politics with Germans and other Europeans.
The program in German Studies provided me with a sure foundation to begin law school. The Richmond faculty’s emphasis on critical engagement with texts sharpens a skill that is essential in legal scholarship and practice. My combination of German Studies with International Studies and History made me familiar with the type of interdisciplinary learning that is also found in the study of law at my current institution. Finally, the teaching at Richmond, in combination with my experiences abroad, cultivated an interest in exploring law at the international level. I am excited to launch my legal career in an increasingly globalized world made more familiar by German Studies.

Returning to the United States in 2013 from a gap year as a high school exchange student in Germany, I was excited to start my studies at the University of Richmond. There, I enjoyed participating in German Studies courses where we discussed and analyzed topics of history, culture and current events. The small classes, which fostered plenty of opportunity to exchange ideas with classmates and professors, provided the perfect setting to hone my German skills.
I didn’t know it at the time, but the discussions, papers and presentations from my time at UR were giving me the tools I would need to embark on a German-language master’s program in Media Studies at the University of Innsbruck in Austria. The participatory and analytical nature of the German Studies programs at Richmond have prepared me to chime in with my Austrian classmates during seminar discussions, as well as dive into research endeavors and present my findings.
I plan to focus my studies on analyzing the similarities and differences in political media coverage between the United States and German-speaking countries. I’m glad that the interdisciplinary and interactive nature of the German Studies department at the University of Richmond has prepared me for this new and exciting challenge.

German Studies and International Business Major
With Germany’s position in the world today, being able to communicate in German or work in a German-speaking setting will certainly be of benefit to any student with his/her sights set on modern Europe. The UR German program set a solid foundation for my future career, and for that I am truly thankful. The academic rigor is part of what makes the German program superb. Students not only study German history and language, but also explore contemporary issues that affect German-speaking Europe. The German program is small, which meant that I had access to opportunities I would not have had at larger schools. I spent the summer after my first year taking language classes in Berlin, and the summer after my sophomore year I interned with a German company. Both opportunities were made possible by the resources and connections of the German program. I studied abroad for a semester of my junior year in Münster, where I took International Business classes in German. During my senior year, I applied for and was accepted to the Congress Bundestag Youth Exchange for Young Professionals, which allowed me to spend a year after graduation living in western Germany, attending lectures at the University of Cologne and completing a five-month internship at a small consulting company in the Ruhr Area. I am now about to begin my graduate studies in International Business and Cultural Studies at the University of Passau in Bavaria.

International Studies and Leadership Studies Major, German Studies Minor
My German studies at Richmond have been influential in my career path. While I took German in high school, Richmond courses solidified critical grammatical foundations, primarily through extensive reading and writing. During my junior year, I studied abroad at the University of Konstanz, one of Richmond’s partner institutions. Not only did immersion improve my confidence in listening and speaking, but it also piqued my curiosity in learning more about German culture.
After graduation I participated in the Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange Program (CBYX), a one-year work-study fellowship program, that added a professional dynamic to my German experiences. My language abilities honed at Richmond and Konstanz qualified me for advanced proficiency course, which later helped me land an internship in the German Bundestag, an extremely exciting opportunity for a dual International Studies and Leadership studies major and German Studies minor. These meaningful experiences and relationships solidified my next steps: some way, somehow, I would ensure that Germany continued to play a role in my professional life.
After CBYX, I pursued a Master’s degree in German and European Studies at Georgetown, where I concentrated in business-government relations to pivot my political background toward the private sector. Upon graduation I accepted a job offer in Frankfurt at a global strategic communications consulting firm, Brunswick. I advise global clients on developing and executing communications strategies on business-critical issues, primarily in the German market. Brunswick understood the value of hiring a native-English speaker locally who both speaks German fluently and understands the nuances of culture, business and policy making in Germany. My journey with the German language has come a long way since laying the foundations at Richmond – and it’s not over yet! | <urn:uuid:4149e56b-c688-4899-9dbd-740ac46774a8> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://llc.richmond.edu/academics/german/alumni-testimonials.html | 2024-04-18T08:14:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.966547 | 1,748 |
LLR-BOARD OF MEDICAL EXAMINERS
Approved by the Board: February 9-11, 1998 Board meeting
Service Area: Licensure, Physicians
Subject: Military Limited Licenses, Abrogation of
The Board has abrogated its policy and procedures regarding limited licenses for military personnel as a result of federal preemption. The purpose of issuing military limited licenses was to provide licensure and regulation for physicians in situations where the military services made external partnership agreements with hospitals or other medical institutions to deploy medical officers to practice medicine within the scope of their official duties beyond the bounds of federal enclaves. The 1998 Defense Authorization Act, Public Law 105-85, amended federal law, 10 U.S.C. § 1094 d)(1), to read as follows:
Notwithstanding any law regarding the licensure of health care providers, a health‑care professional described in paragraph (2) may practice the health profession or professions of the health‑care professional in any State, the District of Columbia, or a Commonwealth, territory, or possession of the United States, regardless of whether the practice occurs in a health care facility of the Department of Defense, a civilian facility affiliated with the Department of Defense, or any other location authorized by the Secretary of Defense.
(2) A health‑care professional referred to in paragraph (1) is a member of the armed forces who (A) has a current license to practice medicine, osteopathic medicine, dentistry, or another health profession; and (B) is performing authorized duties for the Department of Defense.
The Board therefore no longer requires nor issues military limited licenses, since the federal government has preempted the states under the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution. Those presently holding such licenses need not renew them. | <urn:uuid:4056cfd7-2419-4d27-afdb-1ccf1dd45b5b> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://llr.sc.gov/med/Policies/MilitaryLLAbrogation%20of.aspx | 2024-04-18T07:06:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.942808 | 368 |
Two French tourists were stopped and questioned by police on Saturday while taking photographs of the MI6 headquarters at Vauxhall Cross.
According to a report, one of the men was searched while police viewed images on their camera. Their personal details were also recorded, despite being allegedly advised by one of the officers that they hadn’t broken any law.
Pressure group I’m A Photographer Not A Terrorist organise regular protests against the harassment of photographers by police under Section 44 of the Terrorism Act 2000. Stop and search powers under this Act were ruled illegal last year. It appears that taking photos of London landmarks, even if those images are freely available on the internet, is still considered suspicious.

If you are currently suffering from acne, make sure you read this article now. In this article you will learn some of the best and most effective vitamins and minerals that can be utilized to cure acne quickly and effectively without getting any negative side effects.
The honest truth is that many vitamins and minerals as well as vitamins are very good helpers for fighting off acne. When it comes to curing acne, a good number of herbs, minerals and vitamins are very effective for they boost immune system, help eliminate toxins from the body and regulate hormonal levels.
When your body’s immune system weakens, your body starts showing signs of various diseases such as acne, according to health experts. There are also many other factors that affect our immune system and these factors include:

The U.S. Small Business Administration re-open the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan portal to PPP-eligible lenders with $1 billion or less in assets for First and Second Draw applications today, Jan. 15, at 9 a.m. ET. The portal will fully open on Jan. 19 to all participating PPP lenders to submit First and Second Draw loan applications to SBA.
SBA will continue its emphasis on reaching smaller lenders and businesses by opening to approximately 5,000 more lenders, including community banks, credit unions and farm credit institutions. It also plans to have dedicated service hours for these smaller lenders after the portal fully re-opens next week.
Earlier in the week, SBA granted dedicated PPP access to Community Financial Institutions (CFIs) which include Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs), Minority Depository Institutions (MDIs), Certified Development Companies (CDCs), and Microloan Intermediaries as part of the agency’s ongoing efforts to reach underserved and minority small businesses.
PPP loans have opened to CDFIs, MDIs, CDCs and Microloan Intermediaries. As the program re-opens for all First and Second Draw borrowers next week, the PPP will allow small businesses to keep workers on payroll and connected to their health insurance.
First Draw PPP Loans are for those borrowers who have not received a PPP loan before Aug. 8, 2020. The first round of the PPP, which ran from March to August 2020, helped 5.2 million small businesses keep 51 million American workers employed.
Second Draw PPP Loans are for eligible small businesses with 300 employees or less, that previously received a First Draw PPP Loan and will use or have used the full amount only for authorized uses, and that can demonstrate at least a 25% reduction in gross receipts between comparable quarters in 2019 and 2020. The maximum amount of a Second Draw PPP loan is $2 million. | <urn:uuid:3bf7c2ca-35e9-4780-8fe3-677c23209572> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://lscuinsight.lscu.coop/topnews/sba-reopens-ppp-loans-and-continues-emphasis-on-smaller-fis/ | 2024-04-18T08:25:46Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.95849 | 405 |

A Brave Space for Courageous Peace
4 Feb 2022
Webinar on Youth and Interfaith Relations during a time of uncertainty
Interfaith dialogue is often perceived as a theoretical practice for specialists, a formal activity that is disconnected from everyday life.
During the pandemic, however, young people have reached out in creative and constructive ways to engage in dialogue with friends from a variety of religious backgrounds. There have been conversations about coping with the impact of Covid-19 that draw on our respective spiritual resources. These conversations are taking place in everyday life, either through face-to-face meetings or online encounters. They challenge us to deepen our understanding of interfaith work and acknowledge the critical role of these dialogues in the work to build sustainable peace in all our communities.
The objective of this webinar is to facilitate a conversation between youth from different faith traditions, to share what they have learned about promoting constructive interfaith relations. It also seeks to draw out insights that can encourage more young people to contribute meaningfully in and beyond their own faith communities.
Join the Lutheran World Federation and the Al Amana Centre as we explore youth leadership in practical interfaith dialogue, spirituality in uncertainty, and the role of these dialogues in peacebuilding.

Martin Luther was born in the German town of Eisleben on November, 10th, 1483. He ignored his father’s wish for him to become a lawyer and instead entered an Augustine monastry in 1506. The Augustinians based their lives and theories on the work of Saint Augustine of Hippo (354-430 AD), who was one of the most productive writers of early christianity. Luther’s career went quite well and in 1508 he was appointed professor at the Wittenberg University.
It was in that capacity that Luther nailed his now famous Ninety-Five Theses to the doors of the Castle Church in Wittenberg. His intention was to get a debate started about several practices of the church that he was convinced were unbiblical and unjust. Still, he never intended to initiate a church reformation that would result in many new denominations being established. Most importantly, Luther disputed the validity of indulgences, which were kind of remissions from future (temporal) divine punishment for sins. Put differently, they were tickets that get you a place in heaven or at least keep you out of hell.
Luther’s most important message
The most important message that Luther wanted to deliver was that the biblical ‘good news’ is that Jesus has died for our sins. All that we need to do is faithfully accept God’s gracious gift. That’s it. We do not need to give our best to satisfy God. We do not need to try to achieve our own salvation. In fact there is nothing we can do to climb up to God.
As the trade in indulgences shows, everyday practice in Luther’s time was quite different. By supporting the system of indulgences the church actually made people think that they were somehow masters of their own destinies. Wrong, Luther said. The Bible shows us that God somehow needs to come down to us and help us out. You’ll get nowhere on your own. But God did help. He has sent Jesus. Faith then, is all you need. Faith unites people with Jesus Christ and restores the relationship with God. This was Luther’s core message.
The protestant reformation
Luther’s writings quickly spread across the German countries. His work turned out to be the start of an impressive reformation of the church in Western Europe. The argument between the reformers and the church leadership eventually got so out of hand that new protestant denominations were established with no links to the Papacy in Rome. The Lutheran church became the dominant denomination in Northern Germany and Scandinavia. Migrants from those countries later brought Lutheran thought to other parts of the world like Northern America. Today Lutheran churches are among the largest protestant denominations worldwide. Over 80 million people are members of a Lutheran congregation.
Lutheranism in The Netherlands
A small country in Western Europe The Netherlands nevertheless has had an enormous influence on the spread of christianity. However, the Lutheran church has always been very small in the Low Countries. The southern part of The Netherlands has always remained a predominantly Roman Catholic area while churches in the northern provinces are mostly reformed churches in the Calvinist tradition.
Most of the Lutheran congregations in The Netherlands were originally founded by immigrants from Germany and from Scandinavia. The majority of them settled near Amsterdam. Today there are about 12,000 Lutherans in The Netherlands. After a long and intense process the ‘Evangelical-Lutheran Church in the Kingdom of The Netherlands’, as the denomination was officially called, partnered with the largest Dutch reformed churches to become the Protestant Church in The Netherlands (PKN) in 2004. On the national level the Lutheran church ceased to exist. Local congregations, however, remain quite independent and still retain their Lutheran flavour in the mosaic of protestant churches. | <urn:uuid:c72ade1f-98a8-4d6d-863d-83cca2358310> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://luthersekerkhaarlem.nl/english/about-lutheranism/ | 2024-04-18T07:22:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.980428 | 790 |

FileZilla is an open-source file transfer protocol client (FTP). The app is available for most major platforms. If you run Windows, you can also download a FileZilla FTP server app. Since the Mac comes with an FTP server built-in, you don't really need another server. This FTP server is very light, it runs well and it has the advantage of being very customizable. It ships with a few themes and icon sets, and I am sure you can download more or create your own if you want.
FileZilla seems to have every feature that you would probably need in an FTP client. It has a quick connection bar that allows you to easily connect to servers without having to deal with site managers or anything like that. You simply need to type in the host of the server, a username and password, and a port. FileZilla is smart enough to type in Anonymous account details and to use port 21 (which is the default port for FTP servers) if you leave those fields blank.
On the preferences window, you can access the connection configuration wizard, which asks you a few questions and configures the app based on your answers. FileZilla supports active- and passive-mode connections and the SFTP protocol. It is a very complete FTP client. Make sure to go to the preferences window and see all it has to offer. | <urn:uuid:21b7958f-1f67-41f8-825d-833622d579de> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://macdownload.informer.com/filezilla/ | 2024-04-18T08:30:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.956226 | 279 |
Film Review – Anonymous
When the tagline of your film is “Was Shakespeare a fraud?,” you’re immediately courting controversy. Then, when your film proposes the idea that someone besides Shakespeare really wrote all his plays, and the man himself was simply an opportunistic actor who took advantage of a situation, you immediately put the reviewers of your film in a precarious position. One that teeters between critiquing the film in its challenging, historical context, and simply as the film itself, set apart from its accusations and presuppositions—which is exactly what writer John Orloff and director Roland Emmerich have done with Anonymous. By the time the film hits theaters and this review is published, there will already be a bevy of articles debating this very “what if?,” most of them doing their best to discredit any legitimacy the film may hold on its claim.
As if to preemptively illustrate this very point, the filmmakers have attempted a clever storytelling device that begins the film in the modern day, as actor Derek Jacobi stands before an auditorium full of people and begins to tell “the real story of Shakespeare.” As he does, an actor dressed in Elizabethan era clothing walks across the stage, indicating that Jacobi’s lecture will be accompanied by theatrical reenactments. The camera pans and follows the actor, Sebastian Armesto, in the role of playwright Ben Jonson; we then transcend time and are deported back to 1613 on the night of the burning of the Globe Theatre in London. Using a modern day context to connect the past to the present, Emmerich attempts throughout the film’s 130-minute running time to continuously draw parallels from the audience’s connections to storytelling in general. As audiences watch plays performed, they become outwardly affected by it, shouting their approval and disapproval, getting emotional in all the ways a story works to provide.
The central thread of the story focuses on Ben Jonson and his involvement in what is purported to be the biggest literary cover-up in perhaps all of history. Jonson, a not very successful playwright, catches the attention of one aristocrat, the Earl of Oxford, Edward de Vere (Rhys Ifans). In secret, de Vere meets with Jonson and proposes a business arrangement. It turns out that de Vere is secretly a writer, and has been, for political reasons, barred from publishing the plays he’s written in his own name. That’s where Jonson comes in; de Vere needs him to publish his plays in Jonson’s name. Through a series of narrative jumps back in forth in time, we are led to a moment of opportunity, where an actor by the name of William Shakespeare publicly claims credit for the just-performed play by de Vere, one Henry V. This somehow forces the hand of de Vere to use Shakespeare instead of Jonson as his pseudonym.
Most of Anonymous is deeply embroiled in the political scandals at heart of the Shakespearean controversy—namely, a secret and possibly incestuous relationship involving Queen Elizabeth (played by both Vanessa Redgrave and Joely Richardson), which leads to inspiring de Vere to write plays that will stoke the rebellious passions of the people and lead to an uprising historically known as the Essex Rebellion. Historical accuracies and claims aside, Anonymous‘s weakest aspect comes from its need to overcomplicate the political machinations behind the controversy. Bogging down the otherwise hypertensive pacing, the character drama on display plays out more like an extended episode of the television show The Tudors than it does a two-hour film billed as a political thriller. Fortunately, during these long and sometimes overwrought moments, we have the talents of Rhys Ifans and David Thewlis (who plays William Cecil, counsel to the Queen). Ifans’s command of identity is just this side of annoying arrogance, instead providing a confidence that feels comfortable to put stock in. It is because of Ifans’s ability to jostle these character traits in a fine manner that by the end of the film he almost makes the traditionalist in us want to throw caution to historical winds and say, yes you really did write all those plays. Thewlis gives the kind of performance that’s upheld his career since Mike Leigh’s Naked, frustrating to the point of near madness. That is to say, he does such a fine job of acting that his characters are the ones that agitate, to appropriate affect.
Director Roland Emmerich, who’s best known for his over-bloated, end of the world, sci-fi blockbusters such as Independence Day, 2012, The Day After Tomorrow, and Stargate, to name a few, has claimed this film as more of a passion project for himself. Though the film is more grounded in character drama and a far more down-scaled perspective on narrative, that doesn’t mean Emmerich has abandoned his flair for the sensationalism of spectacle. Instead, he’s just shifted the focus from action sequences to Shakespeare’s greatest hits. The film’s most exciting moments, besides its eventual rebellion-driven conclusion, are the first productions of the most famous scenes of Shakespeare’s most famous plays. Everything from “To be or not to be…” to “Et tu, Brute” is captured in a manner meant to be just as exciting as any gun battle or flight from disaster. Emmerich’s film achieves its most intelligent commentary in these sequences, not from attempting to lay claim on who was really whom, but, when it works, drawing those aforementioned parallels in audience connectivity to storytelling, or entertainment. As the actors in the 1600s perform these famous moments of theater, we are shown the audience’s insatiable desire to connect. An attempt on the filmmaker’s part to remind us of the beginning where a modern-day audience is about to be told the story we are watching, aiming to arise in us the same kind of connective emotion, which works simply by challenging the validity of one of society’s most revered writers.
As for Shakespeare himself, he gets the short end of the stick, as the saying goes. Portrayed by actor Rafe Spall as drunk, illiterate, and underhanded, this Shakespeare is sure to cause seething rage in even the most casual of fans. To Spall’s credit, he does a great job of playing the character so as to help further the postulation of the film’s premise. However, Shakespeare’s actual onscreen time is relatively small in comparison to Jonson’s, whose character development against the backdrop of this controversy is a competing theme along with that of the plight of de Vere, which ultimately serves to overburden the film, and, coupled with the underpinnings of the Essex Rebellion, leads to a rather strenuous final act. As we approach what feels to be a climax, it is only pushed further away to open up room for the overlapping narratives of the characters’ competing plotlines. Perhaps if stripped down a bit, the film wouldn’t feel so arduous. Addressing the inherent controversy in the film and whether or not it lays any creditable claims is best left to actual historians than this simple film reviewer, but based on the bit of knowledge that makes for deductive reasoning, it is probably best to take the movie’s historical claims on the same basis it asks you to believe in it, with a dubiously skeptical eye.

So I had everything set up and working perfectly and then I appear to have angered the camera that I was using. It now refuses to speak via USB. So until I get that fixed, this is as much as I can get done on the Tim Minchin stop-motion project.
However I did also complete a paper doll of Alan Turing. See it after the break.
Why is he a robot? I propose that he introduced the now famous Turing Test ironically and that he was actually an android from the future. | <urn:uuid:7c43b5a1-1893-4857-882d-f7ad1703f636> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://madartlab.com/of-mathematicians-and-minchin/ | 2024-04-18T08:37:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.992382 | 105 |

This drive to work will transport you back to 1987 when one of the best parodies was created. Back in the 1980s, there were no limits to what you could say on screen, and Mel Brooks took it all the way with his masterpiece. Whoever is driving this vehicle obviously thought so, too.
For those who haven’t seen the movie, you might miss this gem, or find it disturbing, especially on the road (so go and watch the movie). However, to us, those who have memorized the script and can never get enough, this is one great start to the day.
This poorly placed advertisement takes away from what is happening in this ad! At first glance, this bus quite obviously belongs to some kind of robot baby-making facility. Either that or the Terminator has mastered procreation. But then you realize that all this is — is a funny error. One so bad you forget what exactly it was you were looking at to begin with!
The baby's eye is fine; there is no need for donations to save the baby's vision, and her stomach (and belly button) are in a safe place, too. This is purely bad design and even worse execution. They were only given one job.
There is nothing odd about seeing a rustic old tractor making its way to the fields. In fact, a sight like this can actually cheer us up on the way to work, changing the urban scenery with a touch of farm delights. But what doesn't quite work here is the man in the suit.
When you see a tractor like this on the road, the next thing you would expect to see is a man in mussy boots and rustic overalls. Oh well, it looks like the recession had hit the big corporates, too, and this is the best company car they could afford.
The Traffic Light Guessing Game
Apparently, the traffic control center came up with a new game called "Who Can Guess the Traffic Light?" And hey, can you blame them? Imagine if you had to sit in a room staring at a screen all day, controlling a city's traffic. Wouldn't you want to spice things up a bit?
For everybody's sake, though, we hope this is just a case of an old traffic light that they forgot to take down. Otherwise, that intersection is just a disaster waiting to happen. And it's not going to be the only thing waiting. Can you imagine the drivers who would come across this and sit and wait for the lights to turn green?
Stay Out of the Bike Lane
This sign achieves something pretty amazing — it defies its own instructions! The sign reads, “Give cyclists space,” which is a great sentiment. Unfortunately, it completely undermines that statement by being positioned in the middle of the bike lane.
We have no idea what they were thinking when they put it up and dangerously blocked the bike lane, forcing bikers to swerve into the lane used by cars. Luckily, the cart has wheels, which makes this absurd situation easily rectified. Yet again, this is another great example of things you see while commuting to work that get you laughing and make your day great. | <urn:uuid:9e468924-0c37-4e7f-9b42-350fbd01fc5c> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://magazine.jpost.com/the-strangest-things-youll-see-on-your-daily-commute-to-work/63 | 2024-04-18T07:11:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.977697 | 652 |
There is a question that most founders ask when organizing their startup companies in preparation for fundraising with the angel and venture capital community:
“Should I protect myself against getting fired from my position with the company? Maybe a severance payment clause or a clause accelerating the vesting of my stock if the VCs fire me without cause?”
After all, so the argument goes, it is the founder who is inviting the VCs to the party—it is the founder’s company, and it is the founder who spent years working in a garage on weekends and late nights putting together the magic that will guarantee the success of the startup.
Right at the outset, it should be noted that protective provisions like this favoring founders in venture-backed companies are definitely an exception to the general industry convention. In most startups—and I would conjecture on the order of more than 90 percent—there are no such protections.
Although this state of play in the startup arena might cause some anxiety for founders, here are a few factors that will shed some light on the subject:
• Investors usually seek to establish a level playing field in negotiating the general terms for an investment. Agreeing to protective provisions favoring a founder in the event things don’t work out, in the VC’s view, violates this goal. There is no guaranty to the investors that their investment will be successful, and there should be no guaranty to a founder in terms of severance or accelerated stock if the company’s board of directors determines that it needs to terminate the founder’s employment.
• Almost every VC will tell you that the caliber and experience of the management team are in the top mix of factors they evaluate in making a decision to invest in the company; and in some cases, this capability is the top factor and the only one they won’t compromise on. This means that if a VC or group of VCs represented on the board determines that a founder has to be let go, in their view, it is usually the result of a failed company. Not just a company that needs to “pivot” in response to the needs of the market or the customer or the dictates of the technology—but a company that regardless of the tweaks has no reasonable hope of success with that founder continuing in a management position. Replacing a founder is one of the few levers that investors can pull to breathe new life into a company, and they do it as a last resort.
• The founder’s goal of raising money starts, of course, with pitching a viable plan—a great management team, a market with a huge sucking sound, a disruptive or compelling technology or approach, an effective market strategy and a near-term prospect of hitting key benchmarks. But as any entrepreneur knows who has raised money from the VC community, establishing chemistry with the VC firm and particularly the partner who will be championing the startup to the firm’s partnership is equally important. For the founder to suddenly condition the relationship on the inclusion of protective terms if things don’t work out is a tough sell. It sours the chemistry, and it tilts the playing field in favor of the founder. It is like asking for a prenuptial agreement right in the middle of a courtship. That is not to say the question isn’t raised, but the founder shouldn’t be surprised if the investor doesn’t respond well.
At the end of the day, everything is leverage. For the founder who is fortunate enough to have several VCs courting the company with term sheets and promises of fame and glory, asking for protective provisions in the event things don’t go smoothly might turn out in the founder’s favor. But it shouldn’t come as a surprise if the investor declines the request.

I would go for freshly chopped parsley or cilantro with a little drizzle of lemon juice. You can also add sauce, parmesan, or roasted pumpkin nuts.
Printable Full Recipe/Instructions are available in the recipe card at the bottom of the post. You can find important tips/tricks in the blog post.
Ingredients for Roasted Cauliflower
This air-fried cauliflower recipe lets you quickly cook a healthy side dish and it only requires 5 ingredients to prepare this crunchy and flavourful appetizer.
PLUS everything here will take you under 20 minutes, so if you realize you did not prepare enough, you can easily whip up another batch of this fried cauliflower:
- Cauliflower: Cut or break the cauliflowers into medium to small florets. make sure to cut the cauliflower into the same pieces or the outer will get overcooked before the middle cooked through.
If you like to use frozen cauliflower, you do not need to thaw, simply toss them in olive oil and seasoning. - Olive oil: Adding a little bit of extra virgin olive oil will help to crisp up the outer surface as well as add more richness.
- Bread crumbs: It helps to coat the outer surface and create a crispy coating.
- Spices: onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper
- Corn flour: If you run out of bread crumbs, you can add 1-2 tbsp of cornflour while tossing the cauliflower with the spices, it will give a nice texture to it.
- Egg (optional): you can dip the cauliflower in the egg then coat it with cornflour for extra crunchy and crip[sy texture. ( I did not use this, as this is a VEGAN recipe).
♦♦Keep scrolling down to the recipe card for a list of FULL ingredient amounts and detailed instructions for cooking Air Fryer Roasted Cauliflower.
How to Make Air Fryer Roasted Cauliflower
Cooking roasted cauliflower in an air fryer is very simple and quick. Though roasting in an air fryer and in an oven is quite similar, only the air fryer is quicker than the oven and yes it uses a lot of less oil as compared to the oven recipes.
So, let’s cook some roasted cauliflower in an air fryer (scroll down for full instructions):
- Cut the cauliflower into medium to small-sized florets, put all the ingredients in a bowl.
- Toss the cauliflower florets with seasonings and olive oil, combine everything properly (toss everything together like a salad)
- Place the florets on the basket, make sure you do not overcrowd the air fryer basket.
- Shake the basket midway for even cooking, fry until fork tender.
How to make Oil-free Air fryer Cauliflower:
You may get a bit different texture, but it will still turn out delicious and healthy(oil helps the cauliflower florates to get a crispy outer texture). You can use air fryer parchment papers to avoid the florates from sticking to the air fryer base. Air-fryer parchment papers are easy to use and cheap.
Roasted Cauliflower in a Convection Oven?
If you want to roast your cauliflower in a convection oven then simply follow the steps below:
- Cut your cauliflower into small-sized florets, toss the pieces with extra virgin oil, and seasoning of your preference or you can follow the spices listed in the recipe card.
- Spread the cauliflower in an even layer on a baking pan or sheet.
- Bake for 20 to 30 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Make sure to flip the cauliflower during the baking process to ensure it cooks thoroughly.
In my opinion, you cannot get the crispier cauliflower as compared to the air fryer version, as the oven misses the intense direct heat, but it’s good at its place.
How to Get Perfectly Roasted Cauliflower every time:
- Do not forget to preheat your air fryer or oven: the vegetable will get soggy if you forget to preheat the oven or air fryer, as the high temperature is very essential for the crispy texture.
- Dry the vegetable before roasting: To obtain the crisper texture on the surface, ensure the vegetable is dry enough or pat it dry with a kitsch towel and get that extra moisture out of it.
- Uniform size = Even roasting: always cut the vegetables in the same size.
- Combine the seasoning properly: combine and mix the seasoning and oil in a large bowl and make sure all the florets are coated properly.
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket

We at the Southern Maine Workers’ Center (SMWC) are fighting for a universal, publicly-funded health care system that honors our human rights. The protection and expansion of existing public health care programs are important reform measures that also grant us platforms to demand the system we truly need. Right now, the Maine Department of Health & Human Services is attacking our state’s version of Medicaid (known as MaineCare) by seeking what’s called a Section 1115 waiver, which would result in rule changes for people on MaineCare.
Proposed changes for abled-bodied adultsinclude: Proposed changes for all MaineCare recipients include:
Work or volunteer requirements Copayments for inappropriate Emergency Department use
Monthly premiums Allowing providers to charge patients for missed appointments
A $5,000 asset test
Elimination of retroactive coverage
Eliminating ability of hospitals to presume someone’s eligibility
In its application, DHHS expresses a desire to move away from MaineCare as an entitlement program and promote cost-conscious consumption of health care resources. The Department’s explicit aim is to make people’s experiences of MaineCare more like that of the private insurance market. This is the opposite direction of what Maine people want. Organizations collecting signatures on election day in support of a ballot initiative to expand MaineCare experienced overwhelming support from voters across the political spectrum for MORE access, not less. As stated in SMWC’s recently released report, Enough for All: A People’s Report on Health Care, a survey of more than 1,300 state residents found that 96% believe health care is a human right and 83% support the idea of a universal, public system. It is clear that people in Maine are increasingly dissatisfied with the pitfalls of profit-driven, private industry. Public programs”like Medicaid and Medicare”are some of the only things that work in this broken system. We are prepared to defend health care as a public good until it is granted as such to every resident.We are also troubled by the disparaging underlying assumptions about low income Mainers that are conveyed through much of DHHS’ language. They highlight personal responsibility and wanting to educate MaineCare patients about their impact on taxpayers, thereby mischaracterizing poor people as irresponsible and entitled. The realities of ordinary people navigating Maine’s health care landscape tell a different story.
Nearly a quarter of Maine people with health insurance are MaineCare recipients. 45% of Mainers live in what is called a health professional shortage area, and many face providers unwilling to accept MaineCare. This means hospital emergency departments often become a last resort for treatment of non-life threatening injuries and illnesses. In a largely rural state with limited public transportation infrastructure even in its largest cities, missing appointments is often an unavoidable reality for patients without access to individual vehicles, or those with limited mobility. Workers in the service industries often experience unpredictable scheduling changes, forcing them to choose between making a doctor’s appointment or missing out on wages. People understandably need help navigating the red tape of applying for MaineCare, something that hospital and family planning clinic staff have been able to assist with, and practices that would be curtailed by the proposed changes.
These complications require systemic solutions. The answer is not to incentivize providers to accept MaineCare through enforcing burdensome financial penalties on patients. Nor to discourage low income workers from saving what little money they can by forcing them to undergo an asset test to remain eligible for health care. Poor and working people in Maine already face enormous barriers getting quality, comprehensive health care. In SMWC’s survey, 71% of people felt that their human right to health care is not currently protected. The proposed changes would further raise the barriers people face, which would deny people even more essential treatments and medicines. This is terrible healthcare policy and deeply immoral. In fact, none of these proposals are intended to improve healthcare in Maine: they are driven by a punitive ideology that blames poor people for structural poverty rather than recognizing it is our economy and public policies that impoverish entire communities and fail to meet our fundamental human needs.” For these reasons, the Health Care is a Human Right Committee of the Southern Maine Workers’ Center opposes the above rule changes, and we encourage our members and supporters to speak out against them by:

Urban network analysis
Using graph theory and network analysis techniques to understand how cities work.
How can we leverage network analysis to visualize flows of pedestrians and ultimately design more vibrant cities?
Our urban areas are densifying, and new neighborhoods for urban dwellers are built all around the world. One of the main issues when newly developed neighborhoods spring up all at once is that they can feel “soulless” and “boring”.
In order to create interesting streetscapes that promote human interaction and spark chance encounters, we can leverage network analysis to better locate new neighborhood amenities such as grocery stores, bars, and restaurants. The hypothesis is that an “all day round” active neighborhood with well-located amenities is a safer and more satisfying place to live.
This video presentation was developed during my time at the MIT Media Lab. It uses Kendall Square in Cambridge, MA as a case study to illustrate how simulating and visualizing flows of pedestrians can inform urban planning to create “all day round” active neighborhoods.
The field of network analysis in cities has exploded in recent years, with incredible research coming out of places such as the MIT City Form Lab, but was still in its infancy when this project was undertaken. | <urn:uuid:a7ebeddf-e7ca-4733-9d70-f8571afc3cdd> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://manossaratsis.com/portfolio/projects/urban-network-analysis | 2024-04-18T07:25:46Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.960728 | 257 |
In an earlier post, I discussed the importance of maintaining a healthy microbiome – i.e., the population of microscopic organisms that live symbiotically in our small intestines and colons. They aid in digestion, help regulate metabolism and hormone levels, support immune function, protect the gut lining, and ward off harmful microorganisms. Diversity is the hallmark of a healthy microbiome with no more than 15% of its residents deemed potentially harmful.
When our microbiome is out of balance, we are far more susceptible to chronic illness and disease. According to Dr. Josh Axe, author of Eat Dirt: Why Leaky Gut May Be the Root Cause of Your Health Problems, a number of factors compromise our microbiome:
- A poor diet characterized by excess sugar and nutritionally bankrupt processed food
(Note: A test subject’s biodiversity dropped by 40% after eating a diet based wholly on fast food for 10 days!) - Dietary gluten that triggers production of zonulin, a hormone that causes the tight junctions of our gut lining to loosen up
- Overuse of antibiotics and antimicrobial sanitizers which kill off good bacteria with the bad
- Environmental toxins
Microbes die off and must be replenished. To nourish the good microbial population, we need regular exposure to the soil-based microbes found in dirt and other plant life. While it isn’t necessary to serve ourselves daily spoonfuls of dirt, it certainly doesn’t hurt to leave a little bit of dirt on the fruits and vegetables we consume. Microexposures reinforce good bacteria and help our bodies respond appropriately to pathogens. Those of us who own dogs and cats get a little dose of dirt every time we handle their dirty paws!
As an aside: I’ve always noshed on baby carrots at parties to keep me away from higher calorie snack foods. Until reading this book, it never occurred to me that packaged carrots tend to be bathed in chlorine to increase their shelf life. Chlorine kills bacteria in the gut!
Other than becoming a pet owner, what dietary and lifestyle practices support the cultivation of a healthy microbiome?
Dr. Axe favors getting back to nature. A few simple lifestyle adjustments might include: (i) walking barefoot on the ground daily; (ii) working in the garden; (iii) showering with water and no soap a few days per week to help maintain beneficial microorganisms on the skin; (iv) washing hands with water and certified organic therapeutic oils (e.g., tea tree, orange, melaleuca, rosemary) or Dr. Bronnor’s Pure Castile Soap; and, (v) swimming in the ocean.
As for food, Dr. Axe offers the following recommendations:
- Eat probiotic rich foods such as kefir, yogurt, and fermented vegetables.
(Note: Commercially prepared sauerkraut may or may not have been fermented; it could just be cabbage seasoned with vinegar.) - Drink raw, fermented, organic goat or sheep milk and cheese.
(Homogenization destroys essential enzymes and probiotics as well as oxidizes fats and creates free radicals.) - Substitute coconut flour or almond flour for wheat-based flour.
- Use extra virgin coconut oil for cooking and ghee, olive oil, or flaxseed oil for dressings, et al.
- Use bone broth and collagen powder to repair the gut’s mucosal lining and provide a rich source of minerals that the body can readily absorb.
- Avoid sugar and artificial sweeteners. | <urn:uuid:8c76b4a6-1688-4e14-acc5-25405732b4e8> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://marensymonds.com/diet-and-nutrition/dr-axe-says-eat-dirt/ | 2024-04-18T08:22:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.915206 | 728 |

Scented candles, in the sphere of interior decor and ambiance creation, have gradually made their way from being simple illumination sources to crucial elements that markedly augment a space’s aesthetics and aura. A pivotal actor in this transformation is the candle supplier. This article delves into the captivating domain of fragrant candle production, shedding light on the integral role of an elite candle supplier.
An elite candle supplier’s venture starts with choosing superior raw materials. The pillar of any fragrant candle is the wax and the wick. Choices often vary from paraffin, soy, beeswax to coconut wax. Each wax type possesses unique traits – paraffin wax is praised for its superior scent distribution, whereas soy wax is favored for its cleaner burn. The selection of the wick should also be meticulously done, factoring in the candle’s size, the burning duration, and the desired strength of the fragrance release.
Nevertheless, the defining feature of a scented candle is undoubtedly its aroma. Crafting the perfect olfactory profile is an elaborate task, akin to composing a musical piece. The candle supplier collaborates closely with fragrance experts to formulate a combination of scents that mingle harmoniously. The ‘notes’ of a fragrance – top, middle, and base – must be balanced to ascertain a scent that is delightful and multi-layered. The top notes create the first impression, middle notes constitute the core of the fragrance, and the base notes impart depth and durability.
Elite candle suppliers often transcend conventional boundaries and dabble with distinctive, exotic aromas, thus creating a spectrum of scent profiles. From the heady scent of Moroccan jasmine to the invigorating freshness of Siberian pine, these suppliers curate the finest fragrances worldwide. The outcome is a collection of candles that can whisk the user to a distinct epoch or locale, simply at the strike of a match.
Once the components are selected, the subsequent stage is the actual candle production. This stage demands accuracy and uniformity. The wax must be warmed to a precise temperature before the aromatic oils are incorporated, and the quantity of aromatic oil must be exact to guarantee an optimal fragrance release. The wicks are then aligned and fastened before the fragrant wax is decanted into selected containers. Following a period of hardening and curing, the candles are ready for their final touches, often including custom candle packaging that signifies the quality and personality of the candle enclosed.
In the final step, elite candle suppliers conduct rigorous tests on their products to ensure they adhere to the most exacting standards. They evaluate the burn duration, the scent throw, the wick’s stability, and the candle’s overall performance. Only after a candle has passed these strict tests does it secure its position in the supplier’s product line.
In summary, the manufacturing of scented candles is a fusion of creativity and precision, necessitating meticulous material selection, a refined understanding of fragrance blending, and an unwavering dedication to quality. Elite candle suppliers are vital in this process, producing fragrant candles that enchant the senses and elevate our environments. With their hard work and imaginative touch, they present us with products that do more than just light up our spaces – they help craft moments, trigger memories, and modify atmospheres. Indeed, the realm of fragrant candle production is a fascinating one, where the simple candle becomes a canvas for ingenuity and skill. | <urn:uuid:b81016ba-0615-432e-bbc6-0ebd81525faf> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://marketbusinessnews.com/the-art-of-scented-candle-making-by-premium-suppliers/339103/ | 2024-04-18T08:40:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.908725 | 704 |
Airbnb Overhauls Its Pricing Model, Ditches Pesky Add-ons That Show Up At Check-Out
For many travelers, the allure of an Airbnb vacation rental lies in the promise of unique experiences and the comforts of a home away from home. However, the excitement can quickly turn into frustration when hidden fees and unexpected chores pop up during the booking process or upon check-out.
In response to such complaints, Airbnb has taken steps to address these issues and improve price transparency, making it easier for travelers to plan their trips with ease, as reported by Yahoo! Finance.
The Ugly Surprise: Hidden Fees and Chores
Amy Smith and her husband stumbled upon a charming cottage nestled in the Vermont woods on Airbnb, a perfect location for their family vacation. The pictures were stunning, and the initial price seemed like a steal. However, hidden within the fine print was a hefty $150 cleaning fee and a list of chores that the guests were required to complete before checking out.
"It felt like the host was double dipping since we not only had to pay the cleaning fee but we were still required to do a significant portion of the cleaning ourselves," said Smith. This experience left the Smiths frustrated, and they are not alone.
According to Jamie Lane, the chief economist at AirDNA, a leading provider of short-term rental data and analytics, numerous Airbnb users have expressed their dissatisfaction with unexpected fees and chores that eat into their vacation time. Some markets may even impose additional fees for essentials like sheets, towels, or heating a pool, leading to unpleasant surprises for guests.
Airbnb's Response: Improved Affordability and Price Transparency
In December 2022, Airbnb rolled out a "display total price" button, a significant step towards improving affordability and boosting price transparency. This feature allows users to see the total cost of the rental upfront, eliminating the need to worry about hidden costs. Now, guests can make informed decisions about whether a property fits within their budget from the beginning of the search process.
Additionally, Airbnb has made check-out instructions and requirements more visible to guests. The company aims to ensure that hosts set reasonable expectations and avoid unreasonable demands that could further inconvenience travelers.
Samuel Randall, an Airbnb spokesperson revealed that the company spent six months analyzing feedback from its community of guests and hosts, millions of customer service tickets and social media posts to identify areas of improvement. He added that it is now Airbnb's long-term approach to ensure every policy and process in the Airbnb experience is "simple, straightforward, and consumer-friendly."
Forbes Advisor Report: Extra Fees Still Impacting Costs
Despite Airbnb's efforts to improve price transparency, a recent Forbes Advisor report suggests that travelers staying at an Airbnb this summer can still expect to face an average of 36% in additional fees on top of the nightly rates. These fees can quickly add up, significantly impacting the total cost of the stay. For example, a $250-a-night beach house could end up costing $340 per night when extra fees are factored in, amounting to nearly $2,400 for a week-long stay.
The Cost Comparison: Airbnb vs. Hotels
While the extra fees may seem discouraging, Jamie Lane assures that Airbnb remains a more affordable option than traditional hotels, especially for longer-term stays. The short-term rental industry's demand has escalated during the pandemic, and with international travel and off-seasona bookings on the rise, the industry's revenue is projected to reach $71 billion in 2023, up from $39 billion in 2019.

Wildfires of "apocalyptic" proportions have engulfed Saddleworth Moor, near Manchester, northern England, for several days this week.
The blaze began on Sunday 24 June during a heatwave which saw temperatures across the UK rise to record highs.
The fires — which set seven square miles of grassland ablaze — have resulted in the greater Manchester region being blanketed in a canopy of thick smoke.
Dry peat, high temperatures, and unrelenting winds are said to be hindering attempts to keep the fire under control.
A major incident was declared earlier this week, and people were forced to evacuate their homes as the blaze showed no signs of abating. The military was also called in to support firefighters tackling the blaze.
Firefighters warn that it could take weeks for the fires to be fully extinguished.
A local resident told the BBC the blaze "looked like the apocalypse" and another said it was like watching "ash falling like rain."
Local government workers have said they're praying for a "really good downpour" of rain, which would speed up efforts to extinguish the fire.
"We do need mother nature to help us quite frankly," Brenda Warrington, leader of Tameside Council, said during a press briefing.
"It's as dry as a tinder box up there. A lot of winds are fanning the fire," she added.
Matt Lomas, a resident who was evacuated from his home, told the BBC, it was "really scary" to watch the flames ravage the land near their home.
"We could see flames 50ft high like a raging ball of fire all on the hill side," Lomas said.
Lomas' wife Pauline said it's impossible to see "how bad it is up on the moors now."
"It's fantastic how much everyone is rallying round to look after us and it shows how seriously they are taking it if the Army is getting involved," she added. | <urn:uuid:aac51816-5081-4056-930d-835b3044de42> | CC-MAIN-2024-18 | https://mashable.com/article/saddleworth-moor-fire-photos | 2024-04-18T07:19:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-18/segments/1712296817200.22/warc/CC-MAIN-20240418061950-20240418091950-00368.warc.gz | en | 0.98788 | 404 |
