A pinch and a punch for the first day of the month! December has hit us, so I hope you’re ready for the onslaught of Christmas decorations (which already started appearing prematurely last month) and cries of “where did the year go- it felt like July just the other day?!”
If you’re wondering what’s happening in Taipei this December, check out the article I wrote for Travelog (please click the title or the picture directly below)
It’s a round up of some of the amazing art, music, culture, festive fun and nightlife events on in Taipei in December.
The article features a mish-mash of events so hopefully there’s at least one event which might strike your interest! Obviously I was limited in how many events I could write about so had to select ones with the broadest appeal (hey, I might not like them but Super Junior are undeniably huge).
It wouldn’t be right of me to write about all these events and not attend them myself, so I’m planning to attend most of them:
- Video Art Exhibition: I’m hoping to catch it this weekend as it sounds incredible, so I’ll report back about it here! It’s only on until the 6th so make sure to get in quick!
- Giant Christmas Tree: I already have plans to see this monster of tree in Banqiao sometime this month. I was immediately sold by line “World’s only 360 degree 3-D Label Flash Christmas Tree”-I can’t wait to discover what exactly that means:)
- Fried Ice: This event will undoubtedly go off- the organisers are known for their fantastic parties (Havana anyone?), and they’ve been doing this particular event since 2012. Sadly, I can’t go myself as have a friend’s birthday. This is especially disappointing because pretty much the one slightly impressive sporting thing I can do is skate backwards.
- Hot Spring Festival: I have a deep dark secret I must confess- I still haven’t been to Beitou Hot springs (I know…I know), so with the weather becoming more chilly I will take the excuse to head to the festival and get my tourist on with a Happy Passport in hand.
December is going to be great guys! I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my bones (shout out to all the other Love Actually tragics out there!). Sure, it’s always a bit stressful because with the end of the year wrapping up there is so much to do in a seemingly shorter amount of time.
But finally, the time has come when I can legitimately sing All I want for Christmas is you, and only be judged on my song choice, and not also the awful timing of singing it all year long.
That’s a pretty good trade off I think. Cover your ears people!

Controversy[ edit ] Anthropologist Helen Fisher in What happens in the dating world can reflect larger currents within popular culture. For example, when the book The Rules appeared, it touched off media controversy about how men and women should relate to each other, with different positions taken by columnist Maureen Dowd of The New York Times and British writer Kira Cochrane of The Guardian.
Sara McCorquodale suggests that women meeting strangers on dates meet initially in busy public places, share details of upcoming dates with friends or family so they know where they’ll be and who they’ll be with, avoid revealing one’s surname or address, and conducting searches on them on the Internet prior to the date.

Why order comfort fit?
The advantage to a comfort fit ring - as opposed to standard fit – is an addition of metal to the inside of the ring, making it domed rather than flat. This allows the ring to slide more easily over the knuckle, as well as sitting more comfortably on the finger. Comfort fit is especially recommended for men's rings.

Cutie Fruities Plush Fruit Toys are adorable! A couple weeks ago I was contacted by a marketing representative for Cutie Fruities and was asked if DustinNikki Mommy of Three would like to collaborate with a review. I was sent a few Cutie Fruities products – two of the Cutie Fruities Minis Cups and one Cutie Fruities Basket for our use and review. So what are Cutie Fruities you ask? Well, they are little plush fruits that even smell a little sweet. There are minis that are really fun to collect and there are also fruit families that come inside the basket. These toys will be available in Walmart stores on June 1st!
Cutie Fruities Minis Cup
The Cutie Fruities Minis Cup is perfect for collectors. Filled with three mystery plush and over 40 to collect – common, rare and limited edition – these cups are the must-have travel sized snack for all collectors!
I am going to start with the Minis Cups. These cups are super cute and inside each cup, there are three surprise minis along with a collector’s guide/checklist. Inside both our cups, there was one Fruitie that was in a little bag that you had to open. The other two weren’t in a little bag. My kids like to call little toys in bags “blind bags” so I guess that is what I will call it.
I’m not sure why only one was in a bag but I have an idea that it’s because they are either scented or could possibly be a rare or limited edition one. Not that it will be guaranteed that you will get one of those ones though. One of the ones we got in a bag was a common one while in the other cup, we actually got one of the limited edition chocolate covered ones!
These little guys are so cute. One of my favorites was Blueberry Bear. Some of them are only fruits while some others are a fruit/animal mix. They each have a name and their names are embroidered on the back of each one. This little blueberry looks like a blueberry and a little bear in one! How adorable is that?! The limited edition chocolate covered Fruitie we found is super adorable too.
It’s name is Chocopear. It’s a little pear piece that looks like it has some chocoloate covering the top. This one smells really sweet too. I love their little faces. Each one has their own face making them all look like they have their own personality. Some of their faces are embroidered while others are not.
Out of both cups the six total that we got were two Lucky Orange, Blueberry Bear, Chocopear, Baby Banana, and Mama Apple. They all smell really sweet too. I can’t pick anything out in particular though and I think that’s because they are all inside a cup together and the scents mixed together. But it’s a light and pleasant fruity scent.
My daughter loves these little guys so I am going to have to make sure to buy some more when they become available at the store! I think the company does a decent job at trying to keep you from getting a bunch of the same ones and mixing them up pretty well. We only had two cups to begin with though but we still only ended up with doubles once – and they were not in the same cup.
Cutie Fruities Basket
Open the Cutie Fruities Basket for an entire fruit family – Mommy, Daddy, Baby and More! The Fruit Basket comes with four scented plush fruit slices wrapped in a fruit peel, a fruit fortune and sticker sheet. Turn your basket into a fruit themed play set for hours of fruit fun!
Next up is the Cutie Fruities Basket. Inside the basket is a larger plush fruit that can actually be peeled! The parts that can be peeled and opened are closed with velcro. As many times as our Pear that we got in our basket has been peeled, the velcro hasn’t lost any “stickiness”. The part that can be peeled is super soft and the face on this big piece of fruit is super adorable. I know, I say the word adorable a lot when it comes to these toys but I can’t help it. The fun of this one is that once the fruit is peeled, inside is a whole fruit family consisting of fruit pieces and slices!
The Fruit Family
The each fruit family piece has their names on the back of each one. Our pear fruit family included, Pear Pup which happens to be a little green pear. There are three pear slices and one is Papa Pear, another is Mama Pear and the other is Big Sis Pear. The last but not least is a smaller little pear that is pink and that one is Baby Pear. There faces are super adorable! There’s that word again. I love Pear Pup. His little puppy ears are cute. All the pieces have a really sweet pear scent to them and I love the scent!
Meet the Pear Family!
My daughter loves the basket just as much as the minis. The fruit family is pretty easy to put back into the big fruit and close it again too. I can see younger kids may needing a little help with it though maybe because the pieces do fit pretty snug. The basket can also be used as a play set. There is an image on the bottom of the basket and if the basket is on it’s side, you can use it like a little house with the scenery on the bottom of the basket.
We love them! They are fun for the collector for sure. The minis are super fun to collect and can be checked off with the checklist. There’s something really fun about surprise toys. At least my kids think so. My daughter is hoping to find some rare glitter ones when we buy some more.
The fruit family basket is super cute. My daughter loves it too. She thinks it’s a coolest thing ever. But I think the minis are more appealing to her since she’s older. She’s more of a collector. Of course her fruit family is also part of her collection as a whole.
I think the fruit family basket is great for imaginative play. Of course even the minis can be great for imaginative play too. The age recommendations are for ages 3 years and older. I think it’s a good recommendation since the minis are pretty small. Again, we love them. They are cute, fun to collect, fun to play with, fun to be surprised, and they smell pretty sweet!
Buy It: Cutie Fruities will be available at Walmart stores June 1st! I will update with average sale prices once I have an idea of what those are. Make sure to check out CutieFruites on Twitter, CutieFruities on Instagram and CutieFruities on Facebook!

Norwich man who suffered stroke on plane is home
PUBLISHED: 16:38 23 February 2011 | UPDATED: 16:38 23 February 2011
A Norwich man who suffered a stroke on a flight home from Australia is now back in the city and out of intensive care at the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital.
Housing manager Eddie Pleban and his wife Jeannie had been visiting their youngest daughter Sarah-Jane, 31, and their newest grandchild Charlotte in Perth on Australia’s west coast.
But as their Royal Brunei Airlines flight neared Dubai for a refuelling stop Mr Pleban was taken seriously ill and the Norwich couple, who live on Colman Road, spent more than a week in a hospital in the affluent Asian country.
Mr Pleban was flown home in a special medical plane at the end of last week, with several family members not far behind on a normal commercial flight.
His daughter, Louise Hamilton, knows her family still have many difficulties to face but is just relieved to have her family all together again: “Dad is making improvements all the time and came out of the intensive care unit on Monday. He is now in the Gunthorpe Ward stroke centre and it is just superb in there.
"Dad is making improvements all the time and came out of the intensive care unit on Monday."
“Now that all of us are together we can support each other and take it in turns to look after mum and dad.”
Mr Pleban needed a tracheotomy to help his breathing and ability to swallow. He communicates by blinking and use of an alphabet board, although his face has no paralysis and his family believe his brain is fully functioning.
The road to recovery remains a long one but there are encouraging signs as he has told doctors of feeling tingling in his arms and legs.
Mrs Hamilton said: “The consultants are always talking in terms of quality of life and the first thing they hope to see is if the patient can sit up in a chair. Dad was able to do that and that means he still has some core strength to hold himself up.
“We have no idea how long his recovery will take, or even if he will, but he really is pushing every day.”
Mr Pleban, 63, was born in Sunderland but worked for YMCA Norfolk as a catering manager for 26 years.
He is a grandfather of six and has one other daughter, 39-year-old Lila, and a son, John, who is 38, who are both now in Norfolk to support their parents.
Friends and former colleagues from YMCA Norfolk held an hour of prayer for Mr Pleban and his family on Monday at the YMCA building at Trowse, while his current work place Solo Housing, at Diss, have also been a big help.
Mrs Hamilton added: “We have been really grateful for that and I am very humbled by the support we’ve had, as well as inspired by our mum and dad.”
Mrs Hamilton’s Facebook group has seen tributes pouring in for her father, search for the group “I Love Eddie Pleban” if you would like to add yours.

Insulation® (ROI) for your Florida business or home. This copper coated product is the Most Advanced Insulation In The World! ROI Copper surfaces reflect up to 98% of the infrared heat in your home or business. ROI is an all-season insulation. In the Summer, this “Copper Radiant Barrier” insulation bounces heat rays out of your attic…and reflects heat rays back down in your business or home during the Winter. This keeps you comfortable in Florida year-round – while saving you money.
In fact, we are so confident in this superior, high-performing insulation product for Florida that we GUARANTEE your energy bill will be lower -- or we’ll pay the difference! Importantly, we have NEVER had to pay the difference! ROI is manufactured by Sigma Technologies International and PARSONS IS THE EXCLUSIVE ROI DISTRIBUTOR IN FLORIDA AND THE U.S.
All Radiant Barriers are not the same
One thin, blown-in layer of Reflective Optimizing Insulation (ROI) is equal to 7 feet of conventional/typical insulation.
Conventional radiant sheets of film are ineffective in the attic due to dust collection. The attic collects dust and adheres to both sides of the film -- including underneath wrapped rafter mounts! These radiant sheet products retain so much dust on both sides they become ineffective -- resulting in a very poor investment.
Reflective Optimizing Insulation (ROI) doesn’t depend on just one layer for performance. It l000’s of layers blown into the attic – looking like copper-confetti! We will dust the top layer and all the layers underneath will be dust-free – and they remain dust-free forever. This makes ROI a “Copper Radiant Barrier” that is forever-lasting insulation and an excellent insulation investment. This product reflects the sun’s heat – so your business or home will be cool in the summer and warm in the winter – making ROI the perfect insulation choice for Florida!
Benefits of Using Reflective Optimizing Insulation (ROI) In Florida
- It’s a no-mess, clean and safe installation process. ROI is lightweight and strong – lasting forever.
- Unlike other products, ROI insulation doesn’t retain heat nor absorb moisture. This eliminates the threat of mildew, mold or fungae growth in your attic!
- ROI has very low emittance (emissivity) value E = 0.03 – and this significantly reduces heat transfer by radiation. This product does not disintegrate, compact nor absorb moisture like mass insulation products – so product performance does not diminish.
- ROI is non-toxic and non-carcinogenic – and will not cause cancer. There are no substances to irritate eyes, skin or throat. It is SAFE – will not out-gas in the attic. ROI doesn’t over-heat – carrying a Class A/Class Fire Rating
- Rodents, birds and insects are not attracted to ROI because it has a “shiny” appearance.
- ROI looks attractive in spaces where insulation is exposed, i.e., commercial metal buildings.
- ROI won’t collect dust – saving on your Florida energy costs forever – GUARANTEED!
Why is Reflective Optimizing Insulation (ROI) better than Fiberglass and Cellulose Insulation?
Fiberglass and Cellulose Insulation products compact and absorb moisture – changing its performance and making it less effective. Pinching or smashing of the fiberglass/cellulose insulation also reduces its R-value. To be effective, fiberglass and cellulose must be kept fluffy and soft – without exposure to moisture. This insulation is not designed to stop radiant heat transfer – they just slow it down. And, when fiberglass/cellulose gets damp (which typically happens from moisture), it stays damp and can cause many issues in the home, as well as reducing its effectiveness.
Because of these issues, half of the fiberglass/cellulose insulation that you paid for is gone! This also means 50% of the R-value of fiberglass/cellulose insulation can disappear. And, wherever it is hot – like Florida -- fiberglass/cellulose is not as effective because of the sun’s radiant heat. So…within 10 days of showering and dishwashing, you can lose up to 25% of your new investment of fiberglass/cellulose insulation’s R-value!
Importantly, Fiberglass/Cellulose insulation can be used as a base for our very best insulation product --
copper-coated, blown-in Reflective Optimizing Insulation (ROI).
Our Florida insulation experts will conduct a Free In-Home Thermal Imaging Test
and guide you through options. We’ll create
a “Copper Radiant Barrier” to make your Florida business or home more
comfortable – and save on your energy bills – GUARANTEED!.

Here at our Levidrome News section we will publish or link to existing articles or news stories about levidromes. You could almost call it Levidrome Central. If you have any interesting articles or links, feel free to contact us. We will be happy to add the information on our pages.
It will also serve as chronology of the events as it follows Levi's quest in making levidrome an accepted word by the popular dictionaries (Oxford, Merriam-Webster, etc.).
We are slowly approaching the 2 year point from when the Levidrome video hit YouTube. We aren't the only ones who noticed.
William Shatner, an celebrity advocate for levidromes, tweeted to OxfordWords on August 28, 2019.
Hey @OxfordWords any updates on #Levidrome being added? It's been in popular use for nearly 2 years now.
And Oxford responded on August 30, 2019
Hello @WilliamShatner. Thank you for getting in touch. Levidrome doesn't yet meet the criteria to be added to the dictionary, but it is on our tracking list for potential inclusion in the future.
In our eyes that is a positive response. The fact that it is still on a tracking list means that it is still on Oxford's radar.
As usual, keep on spreading the word. #Levidrome | <urn:uuid:838e3a39-c7ee-4c7e-ac8b-ee1d5336c8ae> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.levidromelist.com/levidrome-list/news/2019/09/04/shatner-asks-oxfordwords-about-levidromes-oxford-responds | 2020-09-27T03:19:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400250241.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927023329-20200927053329-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.908041 | 284 |
A wedding is an important milestone that is worth planning hard for. All the elements of the event, big or small, should be given enough attention and a good amount of investment to ensure that the memories are drawn that day would last forever, not just for the couple but also for the guests. One of the things that you must plan out for is your transportation. After all, what’s a stylish wedding if you are not arriving in style?
Whenever plush, elegance, luxury, and style are used as adjectives, you could tell that people are leaning toward a limousine service in Miami for an option. Why not? This is definitely one of the most, if not the most, fabulous and sleek transportation option, perfect for the grandeur that weddings require.
The Charm of a Limousine
A high-end limousine definitely offers a statement of luxury in every turn. You can choose from a wide variety of limousines for rent, depending on your wedding theme and motif. Do you need it in vintage, rustic, or sleek modern style? You can have what you want without trouble by choosing the right kind of limousine from the ones available.
Limousines make a perfect bridal car for many reasons. For one, it can carry more than just the bride and the groom. You can even stuff the entire bridal party into one limousine. You can ask your rental company to provide benches that can be placed across the car so the bridal party can sit facing one another and have a pre-wedding toast while traversing the road towards the reception.
For another, limousines are packed vehicles. You can practically have a whole lot of features in one go — from audio and video players to refrigerators and stocked bars. That means you will have a lot of options for activities to indulge in while you are on the move. You can start the wedding party right there.
But yes, limousines are not your only options if you want to arrive in style on your wedding day. And they are also readily available for rent, just like the very dependable limo. You just have to be resourceful finding out where to get one.
Your Wedding Transport Options
There are a lot of wedding transportation options, as long as you are creative. You can turn even the most mundane vehicles into one stylish ride. You can choose anything from horse-drawn carriages to old yellow taxis to even vintage buses and well, modern vehicles, depending on what you can afford. Ask your wedding stylist and look for ideas on how you can dress up an ordinary vehicle to turn it into something that works well with your motif. There are a lot of things you can do, actually.
Your big day look has to be complete, and a sleek bridal car is well part of it. Its great of your budget has some space for a limo, but if not, you can also resort to other vehicle models that may not be as expensive but could be as fab. | <urn:uuid:b95fc748-6990-4a79-b4b8-fbd35d598d4d> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.maketheirday.com/how-to-arrive-in-style-on-your-wedding-day/ | 2020-09-27T03:12:27Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400250241.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927023329-20200927053329-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.951148 | 619 |
The year 2015 is an important year in the movie trilogy Back to the future. It is the year that Doc and Marty (Jennifer is also there), go to the “future”. And now we are here, everything has not quite turned out as filmmakers predicted, no hover boards yet and flying cars are not flying through the air. The films are in any case one of my favorites, the details of the script and stuff included is clearly masterfully executed. What do you need to succeed in time travel? I have collected some of the most essential items from the first film in an illustration. | <urn:uuid:3e3857df-fbe3-4c52-b078-d6384f771f62> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.mgulin.com/wordpress/tag/back-in-time/ | 2020-09-27T04:28:14Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400250241.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927023329-20200927053329-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.972509 | 121 |
What is Myofascia?
The term myofasical stems from two Latin words ‘myo’ meaning muscle and ‘fascia’ for bands. We are all pretty familiar with the importance and roles of the muscles but the fascia is less widely appreciated. It is often referred to as a connective tissue, and it is a 3D continuous web that extends without interruption from the top of the head to the tip of the toes. It surrounds and protects every other tissue of the body including all your organs, muscles, bones and ligaments. Therefore myofascial unit is the combination of the muscles and the fascia which surrounds them. When the fascia is healthy it allows us to move safely and without pain or restriction due to its supportive and cushioning properties.
- 40% of a muscles force can be redistributed laterally to the surrounding myofascia thus tightness in one area can affect other areas of the body.
- 30% of a muscles’ strength comes directly from the surrounding fascia, therefore fascial restrictions can lead directly to muscle weakness.
- It contains 15 times more sensory nerve endings than muscles, so it can be more pain sensitive.
- Fascial scarring and restrictions do not show up on MRI’s, CT scans or X Rays therefore and as such many people could be suffering with pain due to undiagnosed physical and/or emotional fascial problems.
How can we damage the fascia?
There are two ways in which the fascia can be damaged, either by itself or as part of the myofascial unit. The former occurs when the fascia hardens and scars in response to either physical or emotional trauma. This causes the fascial network to lose its cushioning mechanism which in turn creates an abnormal pressure and resultant adverse effects in the surrounding pain sensitive structures. Secondly when muscle fibres are injured the fascia around it will become short and tight, this causes uneven stress levels throughout the myofascial unit and also the surrounding areas.
Instrument Assisted Myofasical Release Techniques (e.g Graston)
As the above suggests the myofascial structures of the body play an important role in the development, progression and chronicity of an injury. Therefore it is important to thoroughly assess and treat these structures to achieve good rehabilitation results.
Assessment is usually performed via manual palpation skills to identify areas of restriction and pain. Recently there has been an advent of many tools which complement and aid both the practitioners palpatory skills and treatment. The most commonly known of these is the Graston spoons, however several more have been developed over the past few years such as the IASTM (instrument assisted soft tissue massage) or more traditionally Gua Sha has been used over the last 3000 years. Whatever tool the practitioner utilises the process involves applying a salve to the skin and then rubbing the instrument over the area to identify and treat areas of fascial scarring and restrictions.
Who Can Benefit?
Although this technique started out in the athletic population it’s healing properties are now known to extend further than this remit. Those that suffer with repetitive strain injuries, muscle strains and loss of motion and function due to an injury may benefit from instrument assisted soft tissue techniques. Please find below a list of injuries below which can respond well to it.
• Plantar Fasciitis (foot and arch pain)
• Achilles Tendinitis (ankle pain)
• Muscle Pulls
• Rotator Cuff Tendinitis (shoulder)
• Trigger Points
• Patellofemoral Disorders (knee pain)
• Lateral Epicondylitis (tennis elbow)
• Muscle Strains
• Medial Epicondylitis (golfers elbow) | <urn:uuid:d4267eac-c3f8-4a40-9207-777d5d323a32> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.morningsidechiropractic.co.uk/blog/myofasical-release/ | 2020-09-27T04:02:38Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400250241.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927023329-20200927053329-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.935848 | 787 |
Dancing through the New Year in recovery
Updated: Dec 27, 2019
'I'm never gonna dance again, sang George Michael to me back in the '80s. 'Me neither,' I whispered back, abut five years ago. At least, not now I'd stopped drinking. How could I fathom being a boogie queen again now that I was sober? I need a skinful to get the nerve to set foot on the dance floor, let alone shake loose once I was there. Sober was great, I thought, but boring. I was better off to crank up the stereo at home and dance like no one was watching while NO ONE WAS.
Almost five years after my last drink, dancing (in public) still really isn't my thing but I do have a few more clues and way more confidence about maneuvering my way though the demands of the silly season. Here are a few of my tried and true tips that have seen me stay sober and occasionally, have a lot of fun.
1. Say no to functions that you know are going to be all about the booze, and not much else. There is no point in putting yourself in a crazy-difficult situation if you don't have to. Bow out politely and if you can't make an acceptable excuse, plan to attend for a short time and have a convenient excuse to leave early.
2. Get involved in the planning if possible. If it's a work function, an extra hand might be welcome and could mean you could organise non-alcoholic beverages that go beyond orange juice and put the spotlight on good food.
3. Have your 'I'm-not-drinking' message ready to go. Whether you're revealing your recovery or just advising people that you aren't drinking 'today', be prepared for the odd person to question you. If you don't want to share your reasons for being sober, you could always give a generic excuse such as 'I'm not drinking for health reasons' or 'I'm driving'.
4. Put alcohol in its place – focus on people and ignore the fact that they may be drinking and you are not. Early in recovery, we don't have skills in socialising – alcohol used to do that for us. Now, it's time to build the skills of connecting authentically with other human beings. Being polite and interested go a long way. If in doubt, listen.
5. Redefine what fun means. When we're sober, the lights are on and the filters are off. What used to be 'fun' – think easy laughter, jovial comradery and inhibitions leaving the room – doesn't happen easily. In fact, those kinds of emotions, unless artificially (and temporarily) provided by alcohol are often only organically generated from deep, longstanding relationships with established friendships and family. These types of relationships take time to develop, as do the feelings that come along with them. A social situation with work colleagues or people you don't know well is going to be different when you're sober. Take this time as an opportunity to mature and develop your socialisation skills beyond awkward small talk.
6. Reinvent your identity: when I drank I thought I was the life of the party and the aforementioned 'Boogie Queen'. (This was in fact disputed by those close to me who thought I was just boring, repetitive and sloppy). These days I am far more interested in lively conversation and the occasional debate. I can still crack a few jokes but know when to fold 'em. Thanks sobriety.
7. Be grateful: the sober choices you make are going to take care of you in the future, eg, when you wake the next morning with a clear head and self-esteem intact.
8. Catch a ride on the false courage wave: If you're gonna try dancing, remember that most people will have had a few drinks to provide their own Dutch courage. They won't notice that you might have two left feet or are incredibly aware of every little detail in the room – they just want someone to keep them company through Come on Eileen or Mony Mony. Do it: it's a public service and you might enjoy it. | <urn:uuid:a89c283d-fd08-4d67-a6dc-e0aad325b7d0> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.oceanhillsrehab.co.nz/post/dancing-through-the-new-year-in-recovery | 2020-09-27T02:47:27Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400250241.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927023329-20200927053329-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.974798 | 860 |
COVID-19 Survey response analysis week three
Questions in the third survey cover a wide range of topics. Topics analysed in this report are:
- some positive experiences in the disability community
- information access and understanding
- access to personal protective equipment (PPE) and food essentials
- wellbeing: safety and loneliness
- access to COVID-19 testing and health services.
These topics were selected based on their importance for the wellbeing of disabled people and their family/whānau in the COVID-19 environment.
214 responses were received, with 94 (44%) completed surveys (ie every question answered). This 44% response rate compares well with the 49% response rate to the first survey and constitutes a significant increase when compared with the 24% response rate to the second survey.
One possible reason for the increase in the third survey’s response rate may relate to several changes made to this survey leading to less respondent fatigue, including removing and rephrasing questions and shortening the survey. The third survey was also split into separate versions for different groups: Standard-Disabled People/Whānau, Standard-Service Providers, Easy Read, New Zealand Sign Language-Disabled People/Whānau, and New Zealand Sign Language-Service Providers.
Of the 94 respondents who completed the entire third survey, 64 (68%) were disabled people and 13 (14%) were service providers. And of those 64 disabled respondents, 37 and 24 completed the standard (disabled/whānau) (SV) and Easy Read (EV) versions respectively. Three completed the New Zealand Sign Language (disabled/whānau) version.
It is important to bear in mind that the suite of online surveys is not reporting statistically significant differences over time. The survey questions have not been cognitively tested before being put online. In other words, the suite of surveys provides a snapshot of disabled New Zealanders’ life circumstances in the COVID-19 environment.
In addition, we know that there are disabled people without access to digital technology and those with specific impairments (eg non-verbal persons) who would be unable to complete the online surveys. To mitigate this issue, the Office for Disability Issues funded some non-government organisations to phone call disabled people, who do not have access to the internet, to assist those people to complete the surveys.
Some positive experiences in the disability community
In survey three, we asked respondents to tell us what good things had happened lately. 48 disabled people and their family/whānau shared positive things that had happened in their lives recently. The most common response was increased connection with family and whānau, followed by praise for staff and communities going above and beyond expectations. One response praised the “kindness from neighbours and friends”. Numerous comments supported the increased flexibility of disability services.
Several respondents commented on overcoming mobility and transport barriers by maintaining communication through technology. One respondent shared that “accessibility has increased a lot for me - no need to worry about commuting, all events are online, and I can actually socialise with people on an equal basis”. Respondents also said they had more time to cook, bake and garden.
14 service provider respondents shared similar positives, the increased connection with family/whānau was again the most common. They also noted the benefits of delivering more flexible services for disabled people and the positive impact technology had on the lives of disabled people and their family/whānau. One respondent noted: “The innovative passionate way in which people have come together. As a provider the positive has been the flexibility to finally be able to work with people how they want, not dictated to by a contract line, we want to make sure each individual is leading their best life in this time and into the future.”
Information access and understanding
In the third survey round, a total of 131 respondents to all versions of the survey directed to disabled people and whānau answered the question about the ease of finding and accessing information about COVID-19. Of these respondents, nearly 50% stated that it was “very easy” to find information. This is an increase compared to the second survey’s results, when only 39% of respondents chose this answer. When disaggregated between the EV and SV versions of the survey, 34.2% and 58.1% of EV and SV respondents respectively answered “very easy” (see Graphs 1 and 2).
Very few respondents to the disabled people and whänau surveys indicated that they found it “very hard” to find information about COVID-19. Only 5 of the 131 respondents across all versions chose this answer, that is, a percentage of 3.82% which is an increase on the second survey of 0.02%.
There was an increase in the weighted average of responses to the ease of finding and accessing information about COVID-19 between the second and third surveys. In the first survey, the weighted average for respondents to the SV and EV versions was 4.2, indicating that respondents found it rather easy to find information on a scale of one to five, where one is very hard and five is very easy. In contrast, the weighted average for round two of the SV and EV surveys was 3.5. This increased to 4.1 in round three. This is a promising development.
Some of the substantive comments relating to the ease of finding and accessing information about COVID-19 included: access to the internet and/or technology, needing help and support from others, and multiple modes of access to information. Other feedback related to: lack of time and information overload, and lack of targeted information for disabled people and their unique experiences/needs, particularly around support needs and availability.
Only 26 people responded to the service provider survey question about how easy it is for the people they support to access reliable information about COVID-19. The overwhelming majority agreed that it was easy to find such information.
As to understanding government information about COVID-19, 22% of EV respondents in the third survey said they found it “very easy” to understand, an increase from 14.6% in the second survey. In contrast, under 50% of the 114 SV respondents reported that that they understand government information “very well” (see Graphs 3 and 4).
As with the response to the question about accessing government information about COVID-19, there was an increase to the weighted average for the question relating to understanding this information. The weighted averages for surveys one, two and three were: 4.1. 3.7 and 4.0 respectively. This is a positive result reflecting increased clarity and provision of information in alternate formats.
The service provider responses in the third survey to the question on understanding government information about COVID-19 were similar to the second survey. That is, most respondents neither agreed nor disagreed that the people they support could understand this information. The weighted average remained in the “okay range as it has for all previous iterations of the survey.
Access to PPE and food essentials
9% of disabled respondents said they were unable to access PPE (13 respondents out of the 149 who answered), with 15% stating it was hard for them to access PPE. This is a reduction from the first two surveys. 103 respondents said they were able to access some, most or all of the PPE they needed.
Responses on the ability of disabled people and their family/whānau to access essential items remain similar to the first and second surveys, with 73% of disabled respondents finding it mostly easy or very easy to access food and essentials.
Wellbeing: Safety and loneliness
Of the 119 respondents to the SV and EV versions of the third survey for disabled people and whānau, 25% felt “mostly safe” in the home, whilst almost 65% felt “very safe”. 50% and 23% of the 30 service providers reported that the disabled people for whom they provide services were “mostly safe” and “very safe” respectively (see Graphs 5 and 6).
The number of respondents to the SV and EV versions of the third survey reporting being “very safe” was similar to the second survey. It is also interesting to note that the surveyed disabled people/whānau in both the second and third surveys felt much more positive about being “very safe” compared to the views of the service providers.
The only substantive comment made regarding the home safety question was an EV respondent’s need for more support, including equipment, support staff, respite and home help.
When the 141 respondents to the SV and EV versions of the third survey for disabled people and whānau were asked how well they are doing right now, 63% said they were “doing mostly well” to “very well” (see Graphs 7 and 8). This compares well to the General Social Survey (Stats NZ, 2018/19), in which 61% of the disabled people responding to a similar question on wellbeing rated their well-being as “okay” to “very well” .
It is interesting to note also that almost 56% of the EV respondents to the third survey reported “doing very well”, compared to only 21.5% of the SV respondents.
Service providers did not respond to the individual wellbeing question in the third survey.
Concerns expressed by disabled respondents in relation to the quality of individual wellbeing included: increased mental health issues, increased fatigue, fear and anxiety, uncertainty, and educational and accommodation concerns.
Regarding the question of how their family/whānau are doing at the moment, 27% of the 122 SV and EV respondents to the third survey for disabled people and whānau indicated that their family/whānau was “okay” (similar to the second survey). 38% of the disabled respondents reported family/whānau “doing well”.
Concerns impacting on the wellbeing of family/whānau were similar to the earlier surveys, including: isolation, missing family, increased anxiety, and delays in healthcare treatment.
As to the question of whether they felt lonely in the past seven days, 34% of the 108 SV and EV respondents stated that they felt “a little bit lonely”, whereas close to 54% had “not felt lonely at all” (see Graphs 9 and 10). Interestingly, in the General Social Survey (Stats NZ, 2018/19), 75% of disabled people reported being “not to a little lonely” in the previous four weeks.
Substantive reasons for loneliness mentioned included missing physical interaction and missing family, friends and co-workers
Access to COVID-19 testing and health services
Responses to the question about access to COVID-19 testing and health services were mixed. Of the 23 respondents to the SV and NZSL versions of the third survey for disabled people and whānau, 56.5% said accessing testing and health services went “very well” or “quite well”. 17.4% of those respondents either said it went “not very well” or “not at all well”. Only one respondent provided a further comment which was around a lack of support for autistic people going for testing.
The Office for Disability Issues considered it important to disaggregate the results for EV survey respondents. Only seven EV respondents answered this question in the third survey, with three responding that it went “very well”, two responding that “it was okay”, and one each responding, “not very well” and “not at all well”. Commentary included the challenge for deaf people to read and understand the facial expressions of the medical staff whose mouths were covered by masks.
In the first survey, disabled people and whānau had similar results to the second survey, with further concerns relating to issues around being denied testing, ineligibility for testing, and lack of service for people without a vehicle or access to a vehicle.
In the second survey, disabled people and whānau answered that access to COVID-19 testing and health services “was okay”. Commentary included: unhelpful Healthline staff, an inaccessible testing process, and lack of transportation.
The quantitative results for all rounds of the survey for service providers track similarly to rounds one and two for the disabled people and whānau versions of the survey (mentioned above). Service providers’ substantive comments were also similar, including the suggestion for home visitations for testing.

Now a day’s construction industries require more and more energy sources. According to a survey of India due to constructional activities, the pollutant like carbon dioxide increase about 17% and it affect global warming.
Gree building or eco-friendly building also called sustainable building is a new concept in the design approach right from planning which reduces the adverse impacts of the building on the environment
Eco-friendly housing is an experimental but statistical method. Eco-friendly housing material includes renewable energy (solar, wind energy), rainwater harvesting (R.WH ), recycling industrial waste etc.
Green building is a structure that is designed, built, renovated, reuse in an ecological and resource efficient manner. Eco-friendly building is designed to meet certain objectives such as protecting occupant health, improving employee productivity using energy, water and other resources more efficiently and reducing the overall impact on the environment.
Eco- friendly homes with energy efficient doors and windows, herbal gardens and rainwater harvesting and solar heating are now as fashionable as they are affordable. The use of locally available materials in the construction of a house that makes it eco-friendly and ideally eco-friendly homes cannot be high rise.
Eco-friendly homes are not just money-saving, but even have an aesthetic beauty which keeps the house cool in summer, warm in the water, recycle water, and harness sunlight green architecture is known it cut overall construction costs by close to 25%.
Most eco-friendly constructions also save valuable time. | <urn:uuid:14c8bb51-4635-46ea-9833-35403cafa787> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.polytechnichub.com/what-are-green-buildings/ | 2020-09-27T03:23:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400250241.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927023329-20200927053329-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.948106 | 303 |
Help please – Lost NHBC certificate and lender won’t remortgageMake Text Bigger
I need an urgent help please. I purchased a property off auction last November. I am at the stage of re-mortgaging it this month.
The Property was built in 2004, the builder went bust in 2009 and property was repossessed by bank.
The mortgage company has come back asking for the NHBC / Builders Certificate before they will complete the re-mortgage.
On a quick call to NHBC, they could only find 5 plots (9,10,11,12,1) out of the 12 plots (1 – 12) of the site plan that was registered. Also the door numbers are not on the details they have rather they have “plot” numbers. So my postal address is not in their computer.
NHBC have asked me to scan to them my TP1 document which shows the plan. But my property is showing as plot 6 which is not part of the 5 plots on their computer. Though I am yet to send my TP1 to NHBC.
NHBC also asked me to call Zurich or Premier as they might have it.
Now am asking is there a way I can get the Builder’s Certificate just in case Zurich or Premier don’t have it.
Will be much appreciated if any one here can provide some guidance.

EATON — The Eaton Safe Routes to School planning team will have tables at the three scheduled back-to-school open houses on Tuesday, Aug. 16 from 6-8 p.m. at Hollingsworth East Elementary, William Bruce Elementary and Eaton Middle Schools.
There will be information about the new Safe Routes to School program at Eaton Community Schools in partnership with the City of Eaton, as well as copies of the draft plan and maps showing the initial recommendations. Parents and other members of the public are encouraged to visit the open house to share comments and ask questions.
A group of community and school representatives, including the local Preble Trails cycling advocacy group, and city of Eaton officials created the draft School Travel Plan to ensure that walking and bicycling routes to school are provided for students in grades K-8. The planning team includes members of the consultant team that developed the draft plan.
Once the plan is approved, the community is eligible to apply for funds for items in it.
The Safe Routes to School Program is administered in Ohio by the Ohio Department of Transportation. Its goals are to:
•Improve the environment around the school to encourage walking and bicycling to and from school
•Expand the school’s curriculum and activities to include safety and education programs that will teach children pedestrian and bicycling safety
•Hold events to encourage walking and bicycling

Conor McGregor has apologised for using the word "f****t" in a recent video that went viral, stirring up a huge amount of controversy for the mixed martial arts champion.
Speaking to Ryan Tubridy on The Late Late Show, McGregor said he was sorry for what he said and that he did not mean to "disrespect" the LGBT community.
McGregor has been at the centre of a storm of controversy since a clip was posted of him last week using the f-word three times in a conversation with fighter Artem Lobov after the latter’s defeat in a UFC bout.
The Crumlin-born MMA star addressed the viral video and his comments for the first time in a pre-recorded interview with Tubridy in front of a live studio audience on Tuesday ahead of Friday night's Late Late Show.
He said: "I have to put my hands up there. I was watching a fighter, a sparring partner, a training partner, a friend, a brother of mine who has given his health, his body health, his brain health, everything to help me prepare for fights to give my brain health and my body health to entertain the public. That’s the fighter I was going to watch and support. I witnessed him lose a fight, and a potential career-ending fight, in a manner where the opponent was stalling and running away and I was upset.
"I was whispering in his ear and I was speaking on that and I said what I said. I meant no disrespect to nobody of the LGBT community. I didn’t mean no disrespect. You’d swear I was screaming at two people of the same sex kissing. I campaigned, when we were trying to get same sex marriage legalised, I was campaigning for that. It is another one where things just get blown out and they love to just, any chance they get they love to throw me under the bus. It is what it is. I’ll just say sorry for what I said and that’s it and try to move on from it."

HEISLAZY - He is Lazy
Original statement in spanish at http://www.dc.uba.ar/events/icpc/download/problems/taip2011-problems.pdf
As we all know, Humberto is really lazy. He is so lazy that he sticks his nose out of the window so that the wind will blow it for him. Obviously, he hasn't worked at all in his whole life. However, he got lucky and won a lot of money in the lottery. With some of that money he bought an empty field, and made build several houses inside of it, where he moved with his family and friends. Thus, Humberto can go in a straight line from any point in his field to any other, without having to make detours because of urban design (for the sake of simplicity, we consider the objects in Humberto's field as dots, so they don't interfere in Humberto's way).
Sadly, that was not enough for Humberto, so in order to walk even less he decided to have installed some catapults in strategic points of his field. Each catapult can send him from the point where it is installed, to any point at a certain fixed distance (that depends on the range of the catapult).
But, in spite of simplifying his life, the catapults made the task of choosing a way in the field a real headache, because Humberto wants to walk as less as possible. As tired as he is of all his problems, he decided to use the rest of his money to hire you to tell him the minimum distance he has to walk to move from a given point in the field to another.
The input contains several test cases. Each test case is described in several lines. The first line contains five integers N, P_X, P_Y, L_X and L_Y. N represents the number of catapults in the field (1 <= N <= 100). The pair (P_X, P_Y) indicates the coordinates in the XY plane ot the starting point for Humberto, while the pair (L_X, L_Y) indicates analogously the destination point (1 <= P_X, P_Y, L_X, L_Y <= 109). Each of the next N lines describes a different catapult, using three integers C_X, C_Y and F, that indicate the point (C_X, C_Y) where the catapult of strength F is installed. This means that Humberto may move, without walking, from the point (C_X, C_Y) to any point in the plane that is at a distance of exactly F from (C_X, C_Y). Assume that in each test case all the points given in the plane are different. The end of the input is indicated by a single line containing the number -1 five times, and it should not be processed as a test case.
For each test case, output a single line containing a rational number that represents the minimum distance Humberto has to walk in order to get from the starting point to the destination point, using some or none of the catapults. Round the answer to the nearest rational with two decimal digits. In case of a tie, round up. Print exactly two digits after the decimal point, even if that means ending the number with 0's.

Romanus Ugwu, Abuja
Twenty aspirants jostling for the All Progressives Congress (APC) Kogi State governorship ticket have threatened to work against Governor Yahaya Bello if the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) fails to adopt a direct mode of primaries to select the candidate of the party for the November 16 governorship poll.
Addressing newsmen during their protest visit to the national secretariat of the ruling party, they warned the national leadership of the party to rescind its decision on the mode of the primary election to avoid a repeat of the APC experience in Zamfara State in Kogi State.
According to the aspirants, “we write in respect of the outcome of the meeting of the NWC of our great party, the APC, which reportedly met on Friday, July 5, 2019, and adopted an indirect primary election in picking a governorship candidate for the November 16, 2019, governorship election in Kogi State.
“At an emergency meeting of all the governorship aspirants in Kogi State held on Sunday, July 7, 2019, we reviewed the decision of the NWC viz-a-viz our aspiration and resolved as follows: That the planned adoption of the Indirect Party Primary is inherent with serious negative consequences for the fortune of the party in Kogi State.
“We regret to observe that such a decision was taken without adequate consultation with critical stakeholders of the party in the state especially the governorship aspirants on the platform of the party and other contending groups in the polarised structure of the party in the state.
“The decision to adopt an Indirect Primary by the National Working Committee is fraught with severe implications. First, contrary to the information given to the National Working Committee, there are suits pending in an Abuja court seeking to determine the authentic executive of the party in the state. As a matter of fact, at the last hearing, the suit was adjourned till October 2, 2019.
“Second, arising from the pendency of the various suits to determine the legitimate party executive council in the state, the use of any factional delegate list may amount to an exercise in futility. And lastly, we may have unconsciously set a booby-trap for our party and the stage for the replay of the unfortunate Zamfara scenario.
“We observe that as a party committed to the enthronement of popular democracy, the resort to an indirect primary in the Kogi State chapter of the APC amounts to a muzzling of the wish of the generality of our party members, a victory for merchandised political culture and deference to Governor Yahaya Bello’s wish to be the judge in his own case.
“It is on record that Bello’s factional party executive council members, which he is angling as delegates for the indirect primary are peopled by his political appointees and loyalists who are on the payroll of the state government. It is also instructive to note that nearly all the 21 local governments’ party chairmen are Governor Bello’s coordinators. To subject other aspirants to this hostile political mechanism in the name of indirect primary amounts to a clear case of political ambush, gross act of injustice and trust betrayed.
“Whereas governorship election for Kogi and Bayelsa states are scheduled for November l6, 2019, we note with sadness the selective approach of the NWC in treating the primary election in Kogi State in isolation of that of Bayelsa State. As loyal party men, we would not fold our arms and allow our party to suffer huge political loss arising from the narrow ambition of a non-performing state governor,” the warned.
Interestingly, the secretariat of the ruling party was a battleground as thugs alleged to be loyal to Governor Bello declared war against the supporters of the aspirants, grounding activities at the secretariat and disturbing vehicular and human traffic.
The miscreants had in the morning hours thrown caution into the wind when they attacked correspondents covering the ruling party, accusing them of recording their violent actions and activities at the entrance gate of the secretariat.
The scene created by the thugs, bent on stopping the supporters of other aspirants from protesting, forced the national leadership to beef-up security with the arrival of several patrol vans, loaded with mobile police personnel. | <urn:uuid:54167cbd-4aef-41cf-8bea-6cc98d01011d> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.sunnewsonline.com/kogi-guber-20-apc-aspirants-threaten-to-work-against-bello-over-indirect-primaries/ | 2020-09-27T05:08:57Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400250241.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927023329-20200927053329-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.950965 | 908 |

April 18, this year’s deadline for taxpayers to file their federal income tax returns, is coming up fast, though help preparing those returns is still available to those who need it.
The Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program began providing tax help at schools and other sites around Cameron County in January. The program offers free assistance for households with incomes of $54,000 or less in preparing tax returns and taking advantage of tax credits.
Three VITA sites will provide assistance through April 18: The ITEC Center, Rm. F-6, at 301 Mexico Blvd.; Community Development Corporation of Brownsville, 901 E. Levee St.; and in Harlingen, La Hacienda Casitas, 3567 W. Business 83.
Keren Arista, financial stability coordinator for the United Way of Southern Cameron County, which leads the VITA coalition, said the three sites will be open every day except Sundays through April 18.
Walk-ins are welcome at ITEC, though it’s a good idea to call to make an appointment to ensure you’ll be seen, Arista said. The number is (956) 295-3761.
Appointments are required at CDCB and La Hacienda Casitas. To make an appointment, call (956) 541-4955.
Those with household incomes of $62,000 a year or less who don’t get their returns prepared by April 18 can still do them online at www.myfreetaxes.com.
Arista said the VITA sites typically see a spike in clients shortly before the deadline.
“It picks up the last two weeks before taxes are due,” she said. “That’s when people remember, ‘Oh yeah, I’ve got to get this done.’”
During the past 12 years, VITA’s volunteer tax preparers have helped more than 4,000 families claim more than $3.6 million in Earned Income Tax Credits. Arista said a growing number of clients use VITA’s services each year.
“It looks like we’ll serve more people this year than last year,” she said. “We had a 7 percent growth goal this year, and we’re on track to be right at that.”
Arista said the number of clients the program can help depends on how many volunteers sign up. VITA can always use more volunteers, who are required to receive IRS certification and training.
“We always have more volunteers start the program than finish because it’s pretty challenging,” she said. “The volunteers put a lot into it.” | <urn:uuid:803bf9e9-6293-40c2-9f7e-2b88f207ba71> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.valleymorningstar.com/2016/04/06/three-vita-sites-remain-open-through-april-18/ | 2020-09-27T04:01:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400250241.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927023329-20200927053329-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.949321 | 574 |
You want your employees to have a good relationship with your clients. That only benefits you and helps you grow your business. But what happens when one of those employees leaves and moves to a new business – or starts of one their own? They may have clients who are loyal to them and want to follow them. That can mean a big loss of income for you.
You may have heard the term "micro-business" and wondered how that type of enterprise differs from a small business. Basically, micro-businesses are a subset of the small business community. However, there's are no precise or agreed-upon criteria for a micro-business. | <urn:uuid:4503dd06-2506-4682-a426-37f76f2a3fa5> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.virtualgeneralcounselllc.com/blog/2020/09/ | 2020-09-27T02:42:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400250241.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927023329-20200927053329-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.981868 | 131 |

Baltimore’s mayoral autocracy
Baltimore has had a very poor run of Political Candidates, Police, and oversight.
In 2007 Baltimore elected Sheila Dixon, as Mayor. Wikipedia in the list of Mayors shoes terms and notes on as an example with Ms Dixon if she completed her term.
Ms Dixon is listed as Resigned from office in January 2010. What is not listed is she resigned because she was forced because she was caught stealing gift cards donated for the poor for the holidays and used them on herself. She Stole from the poor and gave to the rich.. or self. Convicted and part of a plea, so she could remove that black mark on her record.. she in 2016 ran again and almost won the election.
Her Successor was Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, pulled forward from the City Council Presidents seat.
Under her watch the Police were allowed to abuse the citizens and in the aftermath of the death of Freddy Gray, she ordered the police to stand down and let the rioters vent by destroying the city.
With that baggage she chose to not run for another term.
In stepped Catherine E. Pugh, who was the CEO of her own PR firm, unknown to most published books, and returned to try for Mayor after years in both as a State Delegate and Senator.
Again we have a person who has been in politics for an extended time and is well connected, but what was quiet in the halls of the Maryland Senate, was not so easy to hide in Baltimore city.
The final downfall is the same as most, greed and power. She sold Childrens books and did not deliver them, but instead delivered City contracts to those who paid to play. During her term she was involved with the Federal over site of the Baltimore Police and as any CEO of a PR firm, she vanished from the public eye every November as the murder count hit an all time high, to return in January only after the number reset.
One of her actions by proxy and by police surveillance was the active suppression of protests and banning of political signs at assembly. It was first refuted that people were not forced to leave or be targeted for any sign not provided. Some people ejected from the public events by the Mayors staff (though it was not supposedly sanctioned) was denied, that is until the police communication channel for events was reviewed and published. Police were active in targeting signs and controlling and intercepting anyone who had a message not provided
During her term she appointed a few police chiefs. The first she supported until she let him go after the highest year murder rate. (after the year ended)
She then tried to appoint without supervision, input or public review another Police Chief. In the end she stepped down under federal investigations into selling contracts for personal gain.
Now steps in Jack Young, former City Council President who stood by and rubber stamped all above mayors did, after taking the position on Stephanie Rawlings-Blake rise to mayor.
Where Mr Young will go from this, is up in the air. But he started in City Council in December 1996. It seems 23 years in office in one form or another is not enough.
He was in a position of power during police abuse, during mayoral corruption, during a mayor trying to appoint without review canidates as well as a time contracts for The Grand Prix of Baltimore, that while connected with the city were blocked from public review, in direct conflict with the law and FOIA.
In the end, even with direct theft from the poor, Baltimore City voters do not learn and do not care. Thats how corrupt candidates thrive. | <urn:uuid:f16b8c6c-ef4a-48ff-9cbd-1981ce7e400b> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://afg-media.us/baltimores-mayoral-autocracy/ | 2020-09-28T11:05:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.987234 | 731 |

My fiance and I met on Match. She'd moved back to the city where she grew up after a spell moving around the eastern half of the nation and I had just finished grad school, watching the majority of my friends move away while I stayed in town with a shiny new job in hand. She'd recall who messaged whom first, but I don't. Suffice to say she was smitten with the prose I had on the screen and three other key points: that I did not look like a complete creeper, was not married, and didn't make constant references to just wanting to have sex.
I met my wife on Craiglist in 2006. I was living outside of a southwesern city in a rural area. I'd grown up in NJ and moved out there after school to take a job.

I reached out to guys via email... I made my inquiries general but certain to something that I needed to find out more about them to make an effort to start up a dialogue...and kept those e-mails brief. Most of the time I not NO response back. The ones which did get back to me were scammers or individuals that were so far removed as to what I was searching for that I was wondering if the filters were working off of these websites. On the very few meet dates that I went on I made sure that presented my best self...but it were the men that set no attempt in. It was the men that brought up their preceding bad relationships and also would ask about mine. I 'd do what I could to steer the conversation into another way.

Jaspal Marwah is a regional planner working for Metro Vancouver, a regional planning agency, in Burnaby, BC. He is responsible for developing an action plan to implement the Metro Vancouver Regional Food System Strategy.
Kimberley Hodgson, Chair of APA-FIG, conducted this interview via email in October 2015.
What is your first and last name? Jaspal Marwah
What is your current position? Regional Planner, Metro Vancouver, Burnaby, BC
How long have you held this position? 2 years
What do you enjoy about your work? I like the variety of assignments and projects that I’m able to participate in – from technical work like processing requests to change land use designations, or assisting municipal partners in aligning their planning processes with the regional growth strategy, or championing a new plan or strategy like the regional food system action plan. My area of focus tends to also be in social planning issues, which I find rewarding to participate in. And it’s also interesting to focus on the connections and opportunities for local governments to collectively advance initiatives that are region-wide.
Similarly, what do you find challenging about your work? Working at a regional scale doesn’t have the same level of engaging technical, hands-on, on the ground type of planning work that happens at the municipal level. And political interests are always a challenge to navigate.
What areas of the food system do you focus on in your work? I’m working on an action plan to implement our regional food system strategy. My focus is on convening all of the local governments in Metro Vancouver to assess the current state of activity related to the region’s food system, to map out what’s happening on the ground in the next 5 years, and to address areas that need more effort. This initiative focuses specifically on the dimensions of the food system that local government have immediate control over and can directly engage with.
In the work that you perform, where does addressing food systems issues fit in? How has this changed over time? My involvement with food systems planning started out working with colleagues to plan and deliver a consultation series on different aspects of the regional food system, including some analysis of the feedback and outcomes. Following that, the food system portfolio migrated from a different department into the planning department, where I was able to take the lead on moving things forward in developing a regional food system action plan. Currently, food systems planning remains one of my lead projects.
Do you consider yourself a food systems planner? Why or why not? I consider myself a planner who is fortunate enough to be involved in food policy and food system issues. Although I enjoy being engaged in the regional food system, it is only one dimension to my overall planning work.
What is the biggest food systems planning-related hurdle your community/organization faced in recent years and how was it dealt with? One of the biggest challenges is in securing and sustaining political and organizational support for bringing food system issues into the local government sphere of activity. Some don’t always see the important role that local governments have in supporting the food system. Building connections among local governments helps create a network of peers and practitioners to learn from, and to develop common approaches and language around integrating food system issues into local government processes. Similarly, building relationships between local government and civil society groups seems to be a very effective approach to enabling a lot of on the ground activity.
How has your perception of food systems planning changed since you first entered the planning field? I started off in the green development/ sustainability policy field, and wasn’t aware of food systems and the connection with planning at that time. Since then, I’ve seen the steady growth of food systems issues in general within my community, and increasingly in the realm of local government interests. It is now a burgeoning field with opportunities for practitioners and supporters in the public, private and non-profit sectors.
Who has had the most influence on you as a planner? As a food systems planner? The colleagues and partners I worked with when I first started out in the consulting field helped provide perspective and experience to learn from and to understand the field more holistically. For food systems planning, my peers Janine de la Salle and Mark Holland have always been passionate voices and innovators in the field, and have helped bring food systems planning to the forefront of planning practice in Vancouver.
Do you have any advice for someone entering the food systems planning field? What makes you successful in your work? What skills do you use the most in your food systems planning related work? Don’t feel constrained by job titles or even distinctions between public/private/non-profit sectors – there are many paths that lead to food systems planning. Look for opportunities to be involved in food systems issues in your community – there are non-profits that are always looking for assistance, and who are doing a lot of the ‘on the ground’ work; municipal advisory committees with opportunities to be involved as a citizen; attend council meetings for food systems issues to get a sense of the discussion, debate, areas of concern from a local government perspective; and, if one is working in a planning company that doesn’t have any food systems experience, there’s an opportunity to bring the issue to the table as part of other projects. Like any planning work, the skills involved are varied and depend on the nature of your work, but some skills are always helpful, such as: systems thinking (to consider how all parts of the food system interact), facilitation (sooner or later you’ll be involved in some form of consultation and group work) and relationship-building (positive and productive relationships with other agencies is key to advancing food systems issues).
What do you wish you would have known before going to planning school? Planning is a broad, generalized field and has as many dimensions as it has practitioners. The education helps give one a sense of the field, but the real learning really only happens after planning school once you’re practicing!

The Twitter Auto DM
A couple of weeks ago, I posted about how much I (and all the people of Twitter) despise the auto DM. It’s puzzling why some people still do it, except that those who send these do so because they think … well, I have no idea why.
So for the past couple of weeks, I’ve conducted a sort of experiment. It’s nonscientific, because I’ve forgotten everything I ever knew about the scientific method, but I hope interesting nonetheless.
For every new follower I’m notified of, I’ve followed back and for those who have sent auto DMs, I sent the following DM in return:
Ooops! Sorry! My policy is to unfollow anyone who sends an auto DM. Everyone hates them, dontcha know? Over and out.
I thought I’d get at least one response back — obviously it won’t be via DM, but maybe they’d @reply me and say … something. Nada. Zilch. Zip. Which confirms my hunch that the folks who send these are Twitter robots. Not real people looking for connections, but just automated bots looking to beef up their follower numbers. So good riddance.
I remember when Twitter was populated with real people following each other. Imagine that. Listening and connecting, it was all about the interaction. Now there are way too many bots, too much noise and too many fake follower scams.
So I guess now I sound like one of those grouchy old social media folks getting all nostalgic about the good old days.
You’re not sending those are you? I didn’t think so. | <urn:uuid:a9417450-aabb-4534-bd7e-b3d1aca500a9> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://bethgsanders.com/the-auto-dm-experiment/ | 2020-09-28T13:15:33Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.948941 | 356 |

- Rep. Mike Doyle (D-PA)
The Energy Storage Tax Incentive and Deployment Act would establish an investment tax credit (ITC) for energy storage used at businesses or homes. This will help make energy storage technologies more affordable while working to make a cleaner and more reliable grid.
This tax credit would encourage homes and businesses to install stand alone energy storage technologies. This means they would receive the tax credit without having to pair the storage with a renewable resource such as solar. Passage would allow home and business owners to not only to utilize renewable energy but to complement its use by saving renewable generation for times when it is needed most. Not only will this help reduce electricity demand and owners electricity expenses, it may also decrease greenhouse gas emissions that would otherwise be associated with use of non-renewable resources. | <urn:uuid:e9f4a30f-2242-469c-b5a0-10a454011109> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://clearpathaction.org/legislation/energy-storage-tax-incentive-and-deployment-act-s-1142/ | 2020-09-28T11:10:44Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.961835 | 166 |
[SOLVED] Move an particle with an constant speed
I'm trying to make a line animation, it only seems that all the properties of the 3D Particle Renderer are doing an linear acceleration, instead of an constant speed.
How can I solve this issue ? I tried to play with the absorption / friction but I can't find the correct settings to make it work.

you used 'velocity delta', which in- or decreases over time. If you you use just 'velocity' all is fine.
Hmmm, I tried them all. But your method seems to be working now, perhaps my eyes are tired ;) | <urn:uuid:560bd00a-8d7e-486b-829d-554b09450754> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://community.troikatronix.com/topic/6015/solved-move-an-particle-with-an-constant-speed | 2020-09-28T12:06:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.950497 | 140 |
Where do you get your ideas? It’s a common question and my answer tends to stun people, if only for its honesty. I steal them.
I don’t plagiarize. That would be wrong. But I seriously doubt that I could tell a truly original story if I tried. It’s not that I lack faith in my abilities, but rather that I simply don’t think there are any truly original stories to tell.
Every story I develop in the future is, on some level, based on one or more stories I have read, heard or seen throughout my life. And I’m okay with that, because what makes my story mine and not those is me, my unique spin on the age-old tales.
I was in a screenwriting workshop years ago and the instructor had us do an exercise where we all watched the same scene from the movie After Hours (a brilliant piece of psychotic filmmaking if ever there was one). When the scene was over—maybe 3 minutes of Griffen Dunne and Rosana Arquette in a coffee shop at night—he had each of us write what happened next.
When we read our scenes to the class what we quickly discovered was that we had 8 different movies, one from each workshopper. Eight people working from the same starting point, 8 movies.
Everybody steals. Always have.
These are not coincidences, my friends.
So cut yourself some slack. You will bring something of yourself to your re-interpretation of other stories and you will mix and match them in ways that no one else would.
Hell, Laurence Olivier, Kenneth Branagh and Mel Gibson each filmed Hamlet and none of them truly matches the play that Shakespeare wrote. They may be the same starting point, but they are not the same movie. (The links are all to the To Be or Not To Be speech)
And if you’ve given your work to someone else to critique, and the first thing they give back to you is “This is a little too much like…”, STOP READING THEIR ADVICE because most of the rest of it is likely ill-conceived or just plain stupid.
Other people have taken photos of bees on flowers, but no one took the photo I took of that particular bee on that particular flower.
If you wrote a story when you were 20 and then wrote a story with the same plot when you were 40, I can pretty much guarantee that those would end up being two very different stories.
So relax. Tell your story, no matter where it comes from. Because in the end, you will make it your story.
PS. If you want a great book that further proves this point, check out Peter Desberg and Jeffrey Davis’s Show Me The Funny. More on this book in a future post. | <urn:uuid:f404d973-7a34-4c3f-a302-58e882a82da4> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://createdbyrcw.com/2013/03/18/no-news/ | 2020-09-28T13:12:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.968622 | 588 |
For readers unfamiliar with the term, a Private Placement Memorandum, or PPM, is usually a long document, often half an inch thick or more printed, that is given to prospective investors and used partly to describe the deal but mostly to explain the risks.
The PPM finds its origins in the lengthy prospectus required of companies selling securities to the public in a registered offering. Following suit, Rule 502(b)(2) of Regulation D requires an issuer to provide specified information to prospective investors in some offerings and in some situations – for example, where securities are offered to non-accredited investors in an offering under Rule 506(b).
But where securities are sold only to accredited investors under Rule 506(b) or 506(c), the issuer is not required to provide the information described in Rule 506(b)2) – or any other information, for that matter. The idea is that accredited investors are smart enough to ask for the important information and otherwise watch out for themselves.
Companies like Fundrise that offer securities under Regulation A or Regulation A+ are required to provide specific information to investors. But Crowdfunding under Title II of the JOBS Act involves selling only to accredited investors in transaction described in Rule 506. Therefore, the law leaves to the issuer and the portal what information to provide and in what form.
For them, what are the pros and cons of a full-blown PPM?
The cons are obvious. Nobody but a lawyer could love a PPM. A full-blown PPM is bulky and unattractive, repetitive and filled with legalese. Ostensibly written to provide information to prospective investors, PPMs have, through time and custom, become so daunting that prospective investors rarely even read them. From a business perspective, a PPM creates friction in the transaction.
However, the pros are also obvious. Although Regulation D does not require an issuer or portal to provide any information, an issuer that fails to provide information, or provides incomplete or inaccurate information, may be liable to disgruntled investors under 17 CFR 240.10b-5, the general anti-fraud rule of Federal securities law, or various state statutory and common law rules.
That’s why the PPM exists: to provide so much information to prospective investors (albeit in an unreadable format), and to describe the risks of the investment in such repetitive detail, that no investor can claim after the fact “I didn’t know.”
The question is whether the issuer and the portal can get the same benefit without all the disadvantages. And the answer, in my opinion, is a resounding Yes!
In fact, the trend in private placements over the last two decades has been away from the full-blown PPM and toward a simpler disclosure document. I have been representing issuers in private placements of securities for more than 25 years and never prepare a PPM except where required by law (e.g., with non-accredited investors). None of the issuers I have represented during those 25+ years has been sued for securities law violations – much less successfully – and in my anecdotal experience, claims arising from alleged failures to disclose material information rarely if ever hinge on the presence or absence of a full-blown PPM.
Not only are portals not required to provide a full-blown PPM, in my opinion the question presents portals with a great business opportunity. Given that information must be provided, the manner in which it is provided, in what format, with what visual effects, how clearly and with what explanation, could well distinguish a portal in the minds of prospective investors. With the technology inherent in the platform, not to mention the creative minds in the industry, I expect that the manner of providing information will become one of the key ways that individual Title II portals distinguish themselves from one another and that the Crowdfunding industry in general improves the process of capital formation. Someday we will look back on the thick PPM and ask “Can you believe we once did it that way?”
A portal that gets it right – and there will be more than one way to get it right – will also create some protectable intellectual property interests and the accompanying breathing space vis-à-vis its competitors and additional valuation on exit.

Twitter has been on what seems like a campaign to make the site a place for more meaningful conversations among users. Ever since last year, it has rolled out several features aimed at furthering this goal. Thus, on Tuesday, the company made another such feature available worldwide, across all devices.
The feature lets people control who can reply to their tweets. The beta testing stage for this feature began in May this year, where only a limited group of people were given access to the new element.
Enabling the feature is pretty straight-forward, and can be customized for every tweet.
When a user makes a new tweet, a new globe icon now appears below it, right above the options to add media files. Clicking on the globe provides people with 3 possible options regarding who can reply to the tweet.
The default option allows everyone, regardless of whether they follow the user or vice versa, to reply to the tweet. The second option allows only people the user follows to reply to the tweet. Lastly, a user can forgo the option of letting anyone except very specific people reply by tagging said people and enabling the setting to only let tagged peple reply.
For a tweet customized to exclude a user from among those who can reply, the reply button will appear gray due to being disabled.
Purpose of the Feature
As mentioned earlier, Twitter has been trying to make its platform a more sound and meaningful place for users to communicate. The power to limit replies is also a function of this end-goal.
According to Suzanne Xie, Twitter’s product management director, “sometimes people are more comfortable talking about what’s happening when they can choose who can reply.”
In other words, the feature is supposed to empower users and hand them control over who engages with their tweets directly and who doesn’t. Additionally, it makes new kinds of actions possible, such as conducting interviews with people by allowing only tagged individuals to reply to a tweet.
One important reason behind this is to create a barrier between users and trolls and abusers. Twitter is an intense place, with people trying to make themselves heard within a tiny word limit. This, along with Twitter’s usual site norms, has made the place a potentially toxic environment for many users. Mixed with its infamous cancel culture, it isn’t rare to see a swarm of users crackdown on one single person.
Some have argued that this new feature creates a vacuum around people’s beliefs and opinions, in turn squashing discourse and healthy debate. Addressing this backlash, Xie mentions that people can still retweet tweets they cannot reply to with comments. She further highlights that this feature reduces the potential risk of users facing abuse, threats, and spam.
What Do the Numbers Say?
Beta analysis has shown that users with the feature felt more protected against abusive responses. It also decreased the chances of getting spam replies.
People who had previously submitted abuse reports were 3 times more likely to actively utilize the feature. Additionally, those using this feature were also 60% less likely to mute or block other users.
On average, limiting replies prevented three abusive replies and added one abusive retweet with comment. Twitter’s analysts took these stats as a good sign.
However, there are obvious pitfalls to this feature. Users have expressed concerns about it enabling influential people, mainly politicians with less humanitarian values, to gain further validation for their views and avoid necessary criticism by limiting replies. But, as pointed out earlier, this can be solved by retweeting with a comment.
In addition, there are other Twitter features that make up for this. One such feature prompts users to read an article link before retweeting it.
The scenario, however, is still hit or miss for Twitter. While it is moving in the right direction, it still has many hurdles to overcome. It needs to create a greater sense of security among users as it is still constantly under fire for being an insecure platform. Recently, Twitter made headlines for a hacking incident in the company. It was also caught using phone numbers for advertisements from 2013 to 2019, a bad sign given that it has approximately 180 million monetizable daily active users as of now. | <urn:uuid:c2490663-0846-4043-a254-e359bcd3255a> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://dazeinfo.com/2020/08/12/can-twitters-new-feature-really-make-you-feel-safe/ | 2020-09-28T13:25:57Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.965837 | 854 |

This review contains NO SPOILERS in respect for the amazing creation by Marvel Studios. Please, if you haven’t already, go see Infinity War. #ThanosDemandsYourSilence
Avengers Infinity War is definitely the most anticipated film of 2018 and perhaps the decade, since it was 10 years in the making. Leaving the film left me empty, yet full. All of my concerns of how the studio would handle such a mash up of casts molded by different directors, promptly disappeared. Never have I been so anxious and excited for a Marvel film.
(I NEED ANSWERS!)
The Russo Brothers obviously heard concerns of past Marvel films. Whether that be the lack of memorable scores/music, no stakes in the fictional world, or having drama be undercut by jokes. This time around the comedy has great timing in the film and Drax truly shines as the comedic relief without being annoying. But… they really hammer the Avengers theme into your head. Like literally, every thirty seconds CUE THE AVENGERS THEME. Truthfully I actually found it pretty annoying once you realize how often it plays. Like any time an original Avengers does anything…DUN DUN DUN DUN dun dun dun.
However, the film really shatters your expectations. Each actor and actress strengthen their roles with dedicated performances. Tom Holland continues to impress me with his performance as Peter Parker/SpiderMan and Chris Evans will always have a place in my heart (especially with that beard). Yet again, another great villain is produced and executed. The film also continues the story lines of each character pretty well, picking up not exactly where they left off, but giving enough context clues to as how the characters arrived at that point. If that makes sense.
Films like this are too hard to talk about in full review without spoilers. Just know that the film does not have many faults. I gave it 11/10 because my little geek-girl heart felt so full and overwhelmed with the film. I know this isn’t much a review, but this is one of those films that you know will be good and that will be enjoyed. So, obviously no spoilers because I don’t want anyone experience ruined. Even though mine was ruined by a terrible AMC employee who thought it was a good idea to discuss spoilers on opening night. :)))))) Although, I’m definitely going to see it again, at least 10 more times.
So perhaps, my first spoiler-filled review is soon to come? | <urn:uuid:4cdcab2b-3d35-4c4d-bd18-231525947c6b> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://geekcrave.com/2018/04/28/avengers-infinity-war-review-spoiler-free/ | 2020-09-28T12:14:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.967871 | 513 |
Home renovations are usually a lengthy, and sometimes expensive, endeavor that many homeowners take upon themselves every year, typically during the warmer weather months.
While DIY projects can save you money and even be fun, there are some home renovations that should always be left to the professionals. Many home reno projects seem like simple fixes, but without the help of a trained professional, the task can quickly become more of a pain than a pleasure.
In worst-case scenarios, you’ll find yourself putting in more time and money than you would have if you called a professional in the first place.
So what are some of the projects you should never try to DIY?
For a proper window replacement, old windows and their frames need to be removed. The new windows will have to fit perfectly and then be secured into the same open area. This can be very time consuming and extremely dangerous if the windows that aren’t on ground level. Improper installation can lead to increased moisture inside the house, loss of heat or cool air, and a decrease in the home’s overall security.
Don’t cause your home more damage or money than necessary. While it can be rewarding to complete simple DIY projects around the home, large jobs should always be left to the professionals! | <urn:uuid:096bd773-d287-4ee1-bde2-197f92b17981> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://heritagehomedesign.ca/blog/six-home-renovations-you-should-never-diy/ | 2020-09-28T10:54:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.947247 | 261 |

I’ve been pondering the concept of perseverance recently and how it applies not just to large dreams and ideas but also to the simple concept of living each day. I think at times it takes more fortitude to continue with your life each day than it does to reach for our goals [the big and the small].
So often it is the little things in life that build up to a crescendo that makes you pause for a moment and say; can I keep doing this, can I keep moving forward as life throws speed bump after speed bump in my path. The big problems, these you can plan for, work around and assess as time goes by. But the little things, the ones you didn’t expect or just didn’t foresee, those are the things that will trip you if you’re not careful.
It’s one of the reasons when I saw this quote that something inside me just sighed and said – there it is, that’s just how I feel at the moment and how I make myself go through the day. So for all those who have at some point felt that soul weary sigh shudder through them don’t forget that life gives us choices in how we deal with the bumps in the road and it is those choices that we truly define ourselves.
Stepping back, shutting down and battening the hatches is no longer an option for me, regardless of how tempting it appears at times. When you think the price for quietude is worth paying know this, that in the cold dark of night when all you have is the honest voice in your heart you will realize that there is no price you’re not willing to pay to step back into the warmth of life and all its messy complications.
Solitude and quietude when chosen out of fear or shame are not the restful experience one would imagine. They bring only a sense of oppression that wraps you in layers until you are too encumbered to move and as such they do not provide the release from pressure that you imagined they would.
We all need time outs every now and then and that is a very different thing. Taking a moment or a day to just step back from the bustle and juggling of daily life is healthy and necessary. What is not is turning away from life and burying your feelings, all the while telling yourself that it is for the best, that it is too hard and that you will never get where you want anyway so why persevere. When the voices of people who would sit in judgement speak up in the corners of your mind and list the wrongs you have done, the people you have hurt or let down and the opportunities you have thrown away, then it is time to fight even harder.
In a way I’m lucky because I understand the lure of dropping out and I know that the lure is a lie. I’ve fought long and hard to rebuild my life, to recreate myself as the person I wish to be not someone who slid nicely into one of life’s niches and it is not something I am willing to lose. Although there are days when the tiredness and anxiety swell up and threaten to swallow me whole.
It’s then, strangely, that the little things in life, the daily tasks are actually a boon. Something to do that must be done, something simple and routine that you can work through until that feeling of being overwhelmed ebbs again. More importantly I remember that I am who I am today because of the fight I put up against the desire to continue in my silent life and that while I cannot change yesterday I do not have to be chained by it.
In fact holding onto the past too closely will actually cause more harm than moving forward in my life would. It’s one of the reasons that this image is one of my favorite quotes since it speaks to the writer and the survivor in me.
Too many people have an opinion of who I was, who I am and who I should be and once upon a time that would have mattered. Now it doesn’t and while that may seem harsh or selfish to some it is a matter of survival for me.
It doesn’t change what came before but I will not let the negative opinions of others shape the story of my life again. I did that once and won’t allow that to happen again. So in my pondering of perseverance I have come to the conclusion that it is this trait more than any other that enables us to move forward even when we think there is nowhere to go. | <urn:uuid:936f5193-c403-41ec-86f9-561a09159471> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://jenniferann1970.wordpress.com/2014/06/04/wondering-this-wednesday/ | 2020-09-28T11:51:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.969478 | 938 |

According to TalkSPORT, Colombia international James Rodriguez has ended his six-year association with Real Madrid in order to make the move to the Premier League with Everton.
The 29-year-old experienced a difficult 2019/2020 season where he was on the fringes of Los Blancos’ first-team and he made only 14 appearances across all competitions.
With just 10 months remaining on his contract, he was always expected that he would head for the exit door and the Toffees have managed to lure him with the presence of manager Carlo Ancelotti.
Ancelotti has a fond relationship with the attacker from their time together at Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, who he spent a couple of seasons on loan between 2017 and 2019.
The legendary Italian head coach had been keen on a reunion with the Colombian at Napoli earlier last summer, but that did not happen with Zinedine Zidane blocking the player’s departure.
However, Ancelotti has been granted his wish this time around and it is reported that Rodriguez has already agreed a three-year contract with the Merseyside outfit.
The overall price for the transfer has not been revealed, but the 13-time European champions were understood to demand around £20m to part ways with the attacker.
With the move to Everton, Rodriguez has the opportunity to revive his career after failing to secure regular playing time under Zidane during the course of the previous campaign.
Rodriguez should provide an instant upgrade for the Toffees in the number 10 position, but the only concern remains whether he can stay unscathed over a lengthy period of time.
Over the past two years, he has picked up as many as nine minor injuries which have kept him on the sidelines but, hopefully, he can stay fit for his new club and help them in their pursuit of European football.
James Rodriguez could be announced as an Everton player on Wednesday. He is set to become the club’s first major signing of the transfer window and could soon be accompanied by midfielder Allan from Napoli.

Here at Literature Works, we love writing that centralises place.
There is something about the effect of capturing a place in words that lends it a certain immortality, a legacy and that is one of the things we aim to celebrate: a place’s heritage and its impact on writers’ work. Capturing a place in words that lends it a certain immortality, a legacy and that is one of the things we aim to celebrate: a place’s heritage and its impact on writers’ work.
We were delighted to be sent an advanced review copy of Virginia Astley’s debut poetry collection, The English River, which simultaneously celebrates an iconic English landmark and a time in the poet’s life which has been immortalised in lyrical, complex poetry which provide an undeniable celebration of both time and place.
From the opening poem ‘Source’ and it’s calligrammatic form to poems like ‘The upper river after Christmas’ to ‘Beyond Greenwich’ and ‘Homecoming’, there is a real sense of the river Thames here. It’s ebbing and flowing, it’s changeability in various seasons and with various external influence is rendered knowable and more than that – the reader is introduced to the life of the river. Be that wildlife or the people of the river, they all live in these poems and have been captured in play with form, subject and emotion to create a unique reaction as one progressed upriver and through the collection.
Astley’s musical background couples well with her aptitude for photography here – the collection is punctuated by images taken by the poet – to create a journey for the reader which encourages deeper engagement with the river as a subject, as a body and as a place.
All the metaphorical references to rivers are teased out in these pages until the reader is left with a sense that they really have embarked on their own journey along its banks. A stunning debut which showcases Astley’s grasp of multi artform working to have created a collection which musical, complex, moving and beautifully well realised.
The English River is published by Bloodaxe, available today.
We caught up with Virginia to talk about The English River, the importance of place and how her multi artform background influences her writing.
1. The English River is your debut collection of poetry. Can you tell us a bit about the inspiration behind it?
I wanted to write about the Thames after returning to the river after some years away. Beginning my journey in a damp field in Gloucestershire over the course of three years I travelled downstream to the estuary in the North Sea. I’d grown up by the river and was curious to see if the resident lock keepers I remembered from my childhood were still living in their waterside homes. They were, but their way of life was under threat from the Environment Agency wanting to rent out their cottages for premium rents, by having one lock keeper covering several locks and no longer living on site.
As I grew up a little further downstream these upper reaches were unfamiliar, but their features: wide skies, stretching fields, chalk streams and willows, were all imprinted on my earliest self.
Spring came round, and the river, like a virus, had entered my blood. I left my home and returned to the river, basing myself at Benson lock where I worked as the lock keeper’s assistant. This is the reach where I grew up and as time went by I was increasingly unsettled by a combination of tiredness, continual rain and the river itself dredging all kinds of memories I would rather have left submerged. Balanced against this was the strong fellowship and solidarity I forged with my workmates. I learnt how to run the lock but the weirs themselves remained a dark art.
2. There is all of life on the river in the collection and the photographs are a charming and engaging accompaniment. How important were they to the writing process?
The poems were first written to punctuate a prose manuscript I was working on; they illustrated what was coming up next. I took many photos as part of this project to remind myself of the river and river folk when I was away. The year I was working there, 2012, was the wettest one on record. It simply didn’t stop! I was working six days on the river and then home for two days and I’d try and write from my notes and photos. I was in touch with Paul Evans and I think emailing Paul and his replies kept me going. It was quite bleak at times.
3. You completed a writing residency at Hardy’s Cottage in Dorchester as part of our project Writing Places last year, what were the most striking differences between time spent at the cottage (we know the pond there inspired you) and the time you spent documenting life on the river Thames and how did both experiences impact on your writing?
One of the main differences was when I was at Hardy’s Cottage I was very focussed on other people’s work and the process of inspiring and encouraging others to write. My own work took a back seat. Although in a way this paralleled the experience of working on the river as there I had to focus on the boaters and the rising water levels! But this way of writing in stolen minutes, making scribbled notes, or tapping the odd line into my phone before I fall asleep is well suited to poetry.
In both instances it was only in the time afterwards that I could make sense of the experience and figure out a little of what it meant.
One big difference was the influence of Hardy. I was very aware of treading through a landscape that he knew and loved, that features prominently in his novels and poetry. There is not a single writer who can lay such a strong claim to the Thames. By the river I don’t feel as though I’m walking in someone else’s footsteps, or quite the same sense of someone else’s presence.
Another striking difference is the physical landscape. At Hardy’s Cottage you very much feel you are in the woods. There feels a level of protection in this. The river is more open, you are in the wide river valley with far-reaching views. Very different to Dorset. It can feel very exposed by the river and the Thames is a force too; there’s something addictive about it. However, both landscapes are taken up by visitors passing through, while as a writer or someone working, you are far more static.
Both places – the river, and the heath about the cottage – are important to me, and the longer I spent in each, the more I came to miss each when I was away. I didn’t want to be inside the cottage at all, just out on the heath, in the woods or in the little shepherd’s hut. A lock keeper’s hut is a similar size and space to a shepherd’s hut. I like these basic forms of shelter. Both at Hardy’s Cottage and by the Thames I spent the majority of the daylight hours outdoors. Even in all that rain!
4. You’re prominently recognised as a singer and song writer. Can you tell us a bit about the transition from music to poetry?
I think there’s a deep connection between song-writing and poetry. They feel like hybrid forms of the same thing. Many songs and poems filter from personal experiences and for me there’s a sense of working things out by writing them out. Problems are solved walking too, again this link back to being outdoors. I started writing prose first, and then gradually poetry took over. But I miss writing music and lately have been writing music to go with the river poems.
5. What would a perfect day’s writing look like for you?
There was a perfect day at the cottage when the cottage was closed for the day due to a gigantic storm. No one came to the woods and yet, walking deep into the forest, under the trees you’d hardly know the storm was going on outside. I gathered a great supply of firewood and back at the shepherds hut fed the stove and settled down to write.
6. What are you working on next?
I’m working on shaping the poems I wrote during the residency last year and putting these with other poems I’ve written while working as a conservation assistant at Max Gate. My daughter and I perform regularly at Max Gate and are taking part in the Hardy Conference this year so there’s quite a bit to write and rehearse for these events too.
We’re also performing at Drift Records in Totnes on August 4th – this will be harp and poetry and I’ll be reading from The English River.

Upper Darby Divorce Lawyer – What is marital property?
Marital property is that property acquired during the marriage or acquired with marital assets. Marital property also includes any increase in value of the marital property which occurred during the marriage. Marital property is either real property, such as a home, condo, or vacation home. It is also personal property, such as a car, bank account, or jewelry. Marital property also includes any debt acquired by the couple during their union.
How is marital property equitably distributed in divorce?
First, it is best for the divorcing couple to reach an agreement on the division of their marital wealth and debts. If the divorcing couple cannot agree, the court will divide their wealth and debt by applying the principles of equitable distribution. This means the court will divide the wealth and debt fairly—or in such proportions and such manner ‘as the court deems just’.
Second, in PA, equitable distribution or the fair division of marital property does not mean that the couple’s wealth and debt will be split 50-50.
Third, there are many factors a court will consider when deciding the fair distribution of marital property. The length of the marriage and the existence of prior marriages are considered. Obviously, the age, health, income, work skills, and needs of each spouse are considered. Whether either spouse contributed to the other’s education or training is considered. The couple’s standard of living during their marriage is a factor. The value of non-marital property owned by either spouse is also a factor.
Other factors considered during the equitable distribution of marital property is whether either spouse has custody of any children. Also considered is whether either party contributed to an increase or decrease of the value of marital property. This factor includes the situation where one spouse was the primary homemaker during the marriage.
Finally, the particular situation of each spouse is considered. That is, the income source, medical needs, insurance policies, and retirement plans, together with the prospect of future assets or income, are considered. The financial situation of the parties at the time of the distribution, such as tax consequences and costs associated with the sale or distribution of the property are considered.

I’M BACK!!! Sorry for the extremely long absence! It has been a week and 2 days since I posted anything, and in that last post I even said “now that finals have started, I can blog more consistently.” Ha, guess that worked! I had every intention this year of blogging throughout all of finals, like I was able to do last semester. I even had a blogging schedule all planned out for myself so I would be able to give you guys something new at least every other day. Well, after my first one, which happened to be intellectual property, I had criminal procedure, constitution law and evidence and didn’t realize just how taxing it would all be. Going into finals, I thought my hardest was going to be my first final, and well my hardest ended up being the second and fourth. So time got away from me to say the least. I took a day off after my last one to get some of my affairs in order, and now I’m ready to post every day. And since I haven’t blogged in so long, I have a lot of manicures and makeup products to show you! And I also have a little bit of a surprise that I’m working on that I’m planning on finishing sometime in the month that I have off, so stay tuned! Anyways, I’m rambling because I’m not used to blogging … Onto the polish!
I picked up Orly “Halo” a while ago and finally have gotten around to trying it. Halo is a neutral gold microglitter with bigger pieces of silver glitter mixed in. The color seriously just shines! I think that the color is neutral enough that it can be worn for any occasion, all year round. Its not in your face, and the color is neutral enough to wear to work, but fun enough to wear on a night out. Whenever I look at this polish I always think of Burl Ives singing “Silver and Gold” in the old claymation Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer!
The formula on this polish was really nice as well! It was completely opaque in 2 coats! I love glitters that are opaque on their own. It did kind of fall into the microglitter trap, where the brush gets a little gloped up and weirdly spread out (know what I mean?). The dry time was really fast, as it is with most microglitters. Another thing about this polish that I’ve noticed with a lot of polishes with a similar formula is that it chips really easily. I had this on for 2 days and on the second day I had huge pieces flaking off. But since I like to change my polish a lot anyways, it was kind of nice to be able to chip it right off instead of dealing with remover. Overall, I really liked it and I think it will get a lot of use in my collection, either as an accent nail or as a full manicure!
What do you guys think? Do any of you have this polish? What is your favorite neutral glitter? | <urn:uuid:cab86f0b-174a-40fe-925b-5f72a9f066be> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://misshollyberries.com/2012/12/14/orly-halo/ | 2020-09-28T12:58:11Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.984578 | 646 |
Foods You Love Only if You Were Raised On Them
Cheeses span a wide variety of flavors and textures, and there are many that only the most sophisticated pallet can enjoy (or unsophisticated, depending on how you view it). But how many cheeses have their legality questioned? Casu marzu is a traditional Sardinian cheese made from sheep’s milk. The cheese is filled with live insect larvae that are supposed to soften the cheese and lower the fat content. If you eat the maggots when they have already died, the cheese becomes toxic, so Casu marzu connoisseurs have to be careful to chow down early, while being careful the larvae don’t jump into their faces.

What did you do this summer? It’s been a common refrain across campus in recent days.
The answer for countless students and faculty is that they traveled or just relaxed over the past few months. But many also incorporated work into their schedules, including the chair of Harvard’s Department of Visual and Environmental Studies, Robb Moss, who devoted some of his downtime to helping filmmakers realize their dreams.
For the past 12 years Moss has headed west in June to the Sundance Institute, a Provo, Utah-based nonprofit that supports independent storytellers in theater and film. The institute, founded by actor-director Robert Redford, is also the umbrella organization for the popular Sundance Film Festival, a launching pad for everything from indie favorites to feature-length documentaries to mainstream blockbusters. Over the course of eight days, Moss and fellow directors and editors from the United States and around the world gather at the institute to act as creative advisers on a range of documentary projects.
This summer, Moss, an accomplished filmmaker who has six documentaries to his credit, worked on four movies whose subject matter was as varied as it was profound: a transgender man in Turkey; military conflict in the Congo; the deadly world of prostitution in Seattle; and the devastation caused by a massive mud flow in Indonesia.
Moss sees his role as helping emerging as well as established directors, editors, and producers assess what they think they’ve done with their projects, figure out where they want to go, and determine what still needs work. It can be a delicate dialogue, with “complex, intimate kinds of conversations.”
“These are projects that people have poured their lives into,” said Moss in an interview in his Carpenter Center office. “They have to trust us, and we have to earn that trust.”
Much of his work involves “seeing the possibility” in a film’s rough cut. He likened his contributions to that of a trained artist. A casual observer sees a rock, said Moss, but a sculptor can see “the shape and promise of the rock.” Similarly, he said, the professional editors who collaborate on the projects have “an exquisite way of mining films for pieces that can make the most meaning.”
The work unfolds in trailers brought in specifically for the week, temporary offices that double as sound and editing booths and mimic the workspaces typically found on film sets. They are light on frills, said Moss, “just about going in and getting your work done.” The days are long, the work intense; discussions and debates often carry over into the evening hours at a local bar.
Redford checks in during the week. Moss calls him “really smart” and credits his vision for helping expand the reach of documentary film. “This would not happen without his original idea.”
According to Moss, about 100 films have passed through the institute’s labs since he started taking part in 2004. Many have gone on to critical acclaim, most recently “Forever Pure,” which tracks the events surrounding an Israeli soccer club’s acquisition of two Muslim players. The film has captured several awards and will have its international premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival this month. For Moss, the number of good films coming through the institute’s doors is significant. “It starts to create an impression in the field,” he said. “A community starts to grow and work starts to affect other work.”
Key to that work is the director-editor dynamic, Moss noted. The best editors bring their own sensibility to a project, he said, while remaining true to a director’s vision. As an example he mentioned his first editor, Karen Schmeer, who worked on his 2003 documentary “The Same River Twice” while she was also cutting Errol Morris’ Academy Award-winning “The Fog of War.” Moss lauded her “magical powers,” and said her editing “could not be more expressive of a director’s character and aspiration.”
Moss considers his summer work, like the work he does at Harvard helping develop future generations of storytellers, critical at a time when serious print journalism faces increasing financial constraints and “politics is mediated through Twitter and we have more and more virtual encounters with the world.”
Documentary film, said Moss, is “a kind of exacting way for us to connect with each other,” and a way to “get at parts of the world we would never have a chance to otherwise.” | <urn:uuid:9691ef12-86e4-4d01-b730-5a1fea82a882> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2016/09/lending-his-eye-to-the-visions-of-others/ | 2020-09-28T13:11:20Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.977096 | 962 |

Cockroaches are well known for liking to live in places that are filthy. However, they can even make places that are clean into a health hazard. Once they’re there, they can be nearly impossible to get rid of. You’ve heard the old saying about cockroaches being able to survive a global nuclear war. That’s because the grotesque villains are remarkably durable. A cockroach can survive without its head for an entire week. The cockroach will keep going until it eventually dies of starvation. When an infestation occurs, the dangers these pests produce are increased. Below, we’ll discuss those dangers.
Effects Of Cockroaches In The House
Things you probably do not want to know, but should: Cockroaches defecate and vomit on human food causing contamination. While this news alone is enough to make you sick to your stomach, cockroach feces has bacteria and parasites in it that can themselves be toxic. The very young and the very old are the most at-risk of this type of infection. Some of the bacteria, such as pseudomonas aeruginosa, are opportunistic infections that make those with weakened immune systems sick. Others, like the salmonella bacteria, cause a range of disorders from food poisoning to typhoid.
On top of those problems, those with sensitive allergies can find that the dust composed of cockroach carcasses extremely irritating. Roach husks are among the most common allergens reported.
Contrary to popular belief, cockroaches will eat humans while they’re still alive. Generally, however, if a human finds a cockroach on them, they’ll brush it off their body and try to crush it on the floor. However, individuals who are bedridden in unsanitary conditions may not even know they’re being eaten alive as it’s happening.
Typically, however, cockroaches leave humans alone. They recognize us as an external threat and run in a random direction when they are disturbed. Not the brightest of insects, cockroaches rely on the speed of their reproduction to durability to survive. When you see one cockroach in your home, you know that there are very likely more that you can’t see.
Living with cockroaches is not an option. Roaches are not smart enough to avoid human orifices. They will crawl into open human mouths, nostrils, and even ears.
Part of this process will require you to shore up any leaks in your home and transfer all of your food to plastic containers. The sense of doing this is to give the roaches an unsupportive terrain in which to live. They can easily get into boxes of cereal, and like many insects, respond well to moisture. Even pet food should be kept in a closed plastic container.
You will want to make sure that you wipe down all the countertops with cleaning liquid or bleach. Small particles of food that are too small for humans can provide sustenance for cockroaches. You will want to clean out your cabinets and lazy susans the same way. Just about any place where food can get to will need to be cleaned out. This includes appliances, floors, and garbage cans.
Leaky faucets and pipes will also need to be dealt with. You’ll want to make sure your sinks and bathtubs are completely dry and then plug the drains. Wet dishrags, towels, or sponges should be kept in airtight plastic containers so as not to make likely targets for roaches. You’ll want to check the drip tray under your refrigerator. If possible, empty water bowls for pets overnight or keep them outside. Keep toothbrushes in Ziploc baggies. Do your best to minimize the presence of moisture in your home.
Now the cockroaches are living in an inhospitable environment, your home is ready for pest control. Pointe Pest Control provides dependable cockroach extermination services to homes with an active infestation. This includes finding likely hiding spaces and poisoning them. We also have chemical pesticide that prevents the cockroaches from reproducing. The process includes using sprays or baits and then monitoring the situation and replacing the baits and respraying as needed.

Historians at Colorado State University’s Public Lands History Center created this website to explore the history of human use of the Cache la Poudre River during the last 150 years, using Fort Collins as a case study. The Cache la Poudre River originates in the Rocky Mountains and flows through Larimer and Weld Counties in northern Colorado before emptying into the South Platte River west of Greeley, Colorado. Residents of northern Colorado began building an infrastructure around the Cache la Poudre River in the 1860s, and soon communities such as Livermore, Bellvue, Laporte, Fort Collins, Wellington, Ault, Timnath, Windsor, Loveland, and Greeley used the river’s water. Today a growing population and a limited supply of water have complicated the agricultural, municipal, industrial, recreational, and ecological demands on the Cache la Poudre River. Transferring water from agricultural to urban use is common. With funding from the Colorado Agricultural Experiment Station, the goal of this website is to help citizens, policymakers, and managers make historically-informed decisions about the river’s future.
The content on this site is organized topically. Each topic provides a broad historical overview and then delves into detailed encyclopedic-style entries, biographies, photographs, maps, interactive content, primary source documents, timelines, video, and suggested readings. The Cache la Poudre River and its path through Fort Collins not only provide a case study of how one community in this semi-arid region has allocated water resources, but also how the river continues to influence the people that have depended on it, as we hope you will discover while exploring this site. | <urn:uuid:8ee9f6cc-6a0b-44a6-bcbc-956346fbfb7d> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://publiclands.colostate.edu/digital_projects/dp/poudre-river/ | 2020-09-28T12:10:01Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.912952 | 347 |
After leaving Grenada we had a wonderful sailing day and made our way North towards Carriacou. Two pelicans welcomed us in front of Sandy Island. What a wonderful place! A white stripe of sand with a few palmtrees, about 15 pelicans and a lot of hermit crabs – that’s it.
FALKOR and KISU joined us on Sandy Island as well. Emma, Kai, Jaël and Amina explored the island like small Robinson Crusoes and we enjoyed snorkelling and watching the pelicans. The snorkelling was actually so good that André and Markus from KISU planned to go diving on the next day as Markus has his diving gear with him on KISU.
So the next day we were getting ready for the big dive… We were all on KISU. Gaby was ready to look after the kids, Markus and André were ready, squeezed in their wetsuits, diving bottles prepared and I was ready to assist and keep watch in the dinghy. So actually everything was ready but…. Unfortunately not the wheather. It turned out to be one of the rainiest days since we have arrived in the Caribbean. So around 3 p.m. Markus and André finally gave up and had a glass of wine instead.
After all it was better like that, then in the evening André’s right ear startet hurting and on our way to Clifton (Union Island) next morning we stopped in Hillsborough on Carriacou where André went to the hospital and got some antibiotics for curing his infection of the middle ear.
Therefore we changed our original plan and skipped Tobago Cays as diving and snorkelling was off the list for at least two weeks. We stopped in Bequia instead and met KISU again.
As Karin was arriving on the 27th of January in Fort de France we sailed from Bequia straight to Martinique with just one over night stop in St. Lucia. The passage between St. Lucia and Martinique was quite rough with big waves but we arrived in Le Marin just right on time.
Baguette, pain au chocolat, cheese… foodwise Martinique is heaven… it is the best place for provisioning. And also for getting any repairs on the boat done. But it is Carribean so things can take a while… it took for example 6 days to find Karin’s luggage. Her bag was first stuck in Guadeloupe then flew back to St. Marten and finally was sent to St. Barths (no idea why). Luckily they confirmed there the receipt of the bag by mail otherwise it certainly would have been lost.
We all enjoyed the days with Karin and are looking forward to see her again in French Polynesia. | <urn:uuid:ff60bc3f-b529-4219-accf-2611629d78c6> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://sailingmirabella.com/2018/03/22/getting-north/ | 2020-09-28T12:17:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.975632 | 582 |
The first thing you should know is that I am not, generally, a person who believes in hiding vegetables in other, more “palatable” foods to get children (or husbands) to eat them. I admit I might sing a different tune if I had kids who truly would not eat any green thing, but my kids have been, even in their pickiest stages, still at least happy to eat things like carrot sticks and tomatoes and cucumbers. I have always figured between that, fruit, and a multi-vitamin, they will be okay until their palates naturally grow to appreciate more challenging veggies.
So the recipe I’m about to offer has less to do with subterfuge than it does with my love of surprising combinations of ingredients. But I’d be lying if I wasn’t also hoping that covering zucchini in chocolate might also entice my husband to actually eat it.
Recipe #4: Double Dark Chocolate Zucchini Bread
Before I continue, I do want to go on record as saying that most of the recipes I put forth here that have to do with cooking are my own. I may look around (online and in cookbooks) for inspiration, but I’m not (so far, anyway) replicating anything wholesale.
Baking, though, is kind of a different story because I am just not comfy enough with chemistry to be able to know how much of an ingredient another ingredient needs in order to work. So I’ve looked at a bunch of recipes for zucchini bread and chocolate zucchini bread, and made some small tweaks and additions to come up with what I’m offering here.
Makes 2 small loaves
2 cups shredded zucchini (about 2 1/2 small ones)
2 1/2 c. all purpose flour
1/2 cup cocoa (I used Hershey’s Special Dark* because I wanted a very rich, dark chocolate bread. You can use regular cocoa, too, just be sure it’s unsweetened baking cocoa, not the stuff you would use to make hot chocolate!)
1 1/2 c. sugar
1 c. canola oil
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips
* Oh, Chemistry. I almost failed it in high school, you should know. But I just now realized that somewhere along the way, I learned that the very dark cocoa that I have just suggested you use, is made by a process called “dutching” in which the cocoa solids are soaked in an alkaline solution before pulverizing in order to reduce acidity. And I recall now that you are not supposed to be able to use dutch process cocoa in recipes that use baking soda, which relies on the acid content in regular cocoa, for leavening. This recipe uses both baking soda and powder, and the bread rose just fine.(See pics below.) Maybe the presence of baking powder as well made this work? Anyone with a better science brain than I is welcome, encouraged, even, to weigh in here. Alton Brown, where are you?
Okay, back to the bread.
Peel and shred the zukes. Cheese grater to the rescue, but you could also use a food processor.
The batter will be gorgeous, glossy, pretty tacky, near-black in color. Add in the zucchini and chocolate chips. Stir to combine.
Grease and flour a small loaf pan or two if you have them available, (otherwise you’ll have to cook these one at a time like I did) and pour batter in. It should be about 3/4 full.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 50 minutes, or until a tester inserted in the middle comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for five minutes before removing to a rack and letting cool completely.
I thought this was very good, though there are some things I would like to change. Namely, I would add more chocolate chips next time and possibly even some applesauce or more zucchini for extra moisture, as it was just a tad drier than I would have liked. It already has a cup of oil in it, so don’t think the addition of applesauce means I’m advocating for a low-fat excursion here. I’m not, though you can if you want to. I won’t judge.
I’m also thinking of trying it with olive oil next time because I bet the flavor would marry well (or at least interestingly) with the dark chocolate. I like pretty assertive flavors, so.
My kids both liked this. My husband took a bite and proclaimed it “okay,” whilst grimacing. But I don’t trust him and neither should you. He is too far gone and ain’t never, it seems, coming back to this elegant summer veggie delight.
I dare you to detect any zucchini in there! So, if you’re bent on hiding some veggies, this is the place to do it. Otherwise, I’m calling this a perfect afternoon pick-me-up with a strong cup of coffee.

Hard to believe that today was my last day after nearly two years at my current job. It was a good two years, if a bit rocky by moments (ie. being made redundant then taken back on board with a different role last year amongst other things) but I’ve learned truckloads and met some fab people.
Now, I’ve got three days to wind down, attempt to chill out a bit before The Great First Day at The New Job. Some people say I should’ve taken a few days just to have a gap between the two, but 1. I’m too curious, can’t wait to start and find out what it’s all about and 2. I’d end up being restless at home!
It was a nutty week, so I’ll make the most of those three days (read: catch up with some reading, sleep lots, slob around in comfortable clothes) and then on with the new job!
For now, I need an early night. | <urn:uuid:ff9918ee-668a-4ac7-a45c-d1369d5d3288> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://thatcanadiangirl.co.uk/2007/05/04/the-end-of-an-era-sort-of/ | 2020-09-28T12:53:31Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.966404 | 215 |

Step 2. Once base coat is completely dry, position a sticker dot at the bottom of nail, right above the cuticle line. (Drawn on smiley faces: optional)
Step 3. Coat entire nail with your dark color. This will probably take a few coats.
Step 5. Finish with a quick-drying top coat, and ta-da! You now have nails that look like you just stepped off the New York Fashion Week runway!

Come watch us mash, ferment, and distill our internationally renowned products daily. We utilize traditional open-top Scottish style fermenters and distill in a 700 Gallon Vendome custom copper combination pot still.
Besides our high-rye mash bill we owe our success to careful mingling of casks at each bottling and the perfect Breckenridge snowmelt water used for proofing. The natural minerality of our water source ensures the luscious mouth-feel, depth of flavor, and long finish making our whiskey one of the very best in the World.
56% Yellow Corn, 38% Green Rye, 6% Barley
100% new American White Oak barrels, 53 gallon
Average Age at bottling
Most famous achievement

This last week has been very busy, but very rewarding as well! A while back I was invited to guest speak to the Johnson Elementary School 2nd Grade classes about Livestock Animals. My topic to share was ‘Livestock Animals, their attributes, and how they help humans solve problems’.
This is a very exciting topic to me because animals are a crucial part of human life all over the globe.
Each class began with a quiz about their knowledge of proper names for species, and boy/girl. I laugh a little right now because the first slide I put up was of cattle – but every class yelled “COWS!”. I explained that was not right because technically cows are the female, but no one would judge them for calling cattle, cows…hahaha!
After we had some fun naming livestock, the kids were challenged to match the animal with a product it provides. We then brought up the web of products and discussed many things we knew animals provided and a lot of things we didn’t know they provided!
They were excited to know donkeys are still used for transportation in countries like Thailand were roads are limited in mountainous areas.
It was amazing to learn that recent medical research has led doctors to use a pig’s heart valve as a replacement for the human heart valve when it fails to work properly. The pig’s heart valve is so well adapted that it works better than the mechanical replacement that had been used prior to this discovery.
Finally, we talked about the behavioral lessons we can learn from animals and how they interact with each other. I shared the story of Helen the blind, shy buffalo, and how she met her best friends Oliver the calf and a pot belly pig (sorry, name escapes me – we will dub her Sally). Although they are different from each other, they have learned to appreciate their differences and each make life worth living for group! What a concept for youth to learn to see and appreciate the differences in each other!
Over all, I’m thankful for the opportunity to visit Johnson again and I look forward to the 2nd grade PBL presentations later this year!
**Writers Note: Please feel free to contact me for your PBL or in classroom presenter needs.

Huntington Health eConnect Powered by Allscripts Enables Care Collaboration Across the Full Continuum of Care to Add to Safe, High Quality Health Delivery
CHICAGO and PASADENA, CA – July 20, 2010 – Allscripts (Nasdaq: MDRX) announced today that Huntington Memorial Hospital has selected the Allscripts Community Solution to power Huntington Health eConnect, a Health Information Exchange (HIE) that enables physicians, hospitals and other health care providers across the San Gabriel Valley to connect and collaborate for a team approach to patient care, regardless of where they are located or which clinical technologies they use.
“Huntington Health eConnect is another example of our commitment to provide the necessary resources to improve patient safety and care in our community,” said Steve Ralph, Chief Executive Officer of Huntington Memorial Hospital. “Our partnership with Allscripts started with our offering of HuntingtonRx earlier this year which has been well received by our affiliated physicians. Expanding our partnership and investment in the health of our community by building an advanced, secure method of care collaboration is vital to ensure the continued delivery of cost effective high quality care in our community now and for future generations.”
The Allscripts Community Solution combines the Allscripts Community Record with the Allscripts Community Exchange. The Community Record, powered by dbMotion , aggregates and harmonizes data from virtually any Electronic Health Record or other clinical IT system, enabling providers to view a virtual patient record across a health system or community. The Exchange efficiently connects and manages electronic transactions of all kinds between health systems and community/affiliated physician practices.
Using the Allscripts solution, Huntington Health eConnect will allow healthcare organizations and physicians to securely and confidentially view and share clinical information across the full continuum of care. The infrastructure is designed to support data from multiple sources in a variety of formats, and harmonizes the data into a uniform, aggregated, usable structure so it can be displayed or shared with other electronic health records, personal health records (PHRs), and decision support systems across the community. Practices still using paper charts can use a secure web-based ‘on-ramp’ to the virtual patient record and electronic healthcare highway for communicating and collaborating with other care providers connected through Huntington Health eConnect.
“Connecting both the hospital-based and office-based care environments and ensuring that all physicians and care givers can seamlessly share meaningfully harmonized data necessary for true care collaboration is a core requirement in meeting our goals for clinical excellence. ” said Debbie Tafoya, Vice President and Chief Information Officer at Huntington Hospital. “We are committed to delivering the information our caregivers need when they need it, in the method that supports the way they provide care.”
Allscripts Chief Executive Officer Glen Tullman commented, “Huntington Hospital is taking a leadership role by working with physicians across the San Gabriel Valley to provide them with new tools to work together, regardless of where they work or what systems they use. This partnership fulfills our shared vision of leveraging information technology to create collaboration between providers in all care settings, helping to improve the quality and lower the cost of care.”

The small Baltic state of Estonia is rapidly emerging as a
leading blockchain hub, now hosting some 700 blockchain companies with foreign
shareholders and challenging the Swiss city of Zug, also known as Crypto Valley,
to a new research by ORS CryptoHound, a blockchain and artificial intelligence
(AI) analytics startup.
ORS CryptoHound, which interviewed Estonian law firms, software developers and corporate services providers including NJORD Estonia, Comistar Estonia, Guardtime, Private Financial Services, Eesti Consulting, KRM Advisor and Consulting24.co, found that the four pillars that have helped Estonia pave its way to success are the possibility to set up and run businesses online, 0% taxes on undistributed profits, the ease of obtaining a cryptocurrency license, and advanced anti-money laundering regulations.
“Many entrepreneurs relocate their blockchain businesses to
Estonia due to existing cryptocurrency regulations, favorable tax regime, and
ease of doing business. More than 700
cryptocurrency/blockchain companies with foreign shareholders are
running their blockchain business from Estonia,” said Dmitri Lihno, the head of Private
Financial Services’ Estonian branch.
Estonia has been building out its e-government since the
mid-90s, and today still, the program continues to make headlines with bold digital
initiatives including the e-Residency program, which allows non-Estonians
access to Estonian services such as company formation, banking, payment
processing and taxation.
e-Estonia, a movement by the government to facilitate
citizen interactions with the state through the use of electronic solutions,
has birthed e-services such as i-Voting, e-Tax Board, e-Business, e-Banking,
e-Ticket, e-School, University via internet, the e-Governance Academy, as well
as the release of several mobile applications.
These digital initiatives earned the country a spot
in the highest echelons of the United Nations’ E-Government Development Index.
Mikk Maal from Comistar Estonia referred to the country as
“the most digital society in the whole world.” He mentioned that members of
their parliament hold sessions online, and foreigners can run Estonian
businesses remotely via their e-Residency
As part of the e-Estonian movement, the government and
public sector have been early adopters of blockchain, starting
testing the technology in 2008. Since 2012, blockchain has been in
production use in Estonia to protect national data, e-services and smart
devices both in the public and private sector.
“The whole Estonian ID-card system is built on an early blockchain
technology called Keyless Signature Infrastructure (KSI),” said Mikk Maal, a
co-founder of Comistar Estonia.
The Estonian KSI Blockchain technology currently protects a
number of different Estonian e-services, including e-Prescription database,
e-Law and e-Court systems, e-Police data, e-Banking, the e-Business Register
and the e-Land Registry.
“[The technology] shows information about companies in the
Estonian e-Business Register, e-Land register, and e-Court system, as well as
provides insight into when and how this information has been changed,”
explained Ain Aaviksoo, the general manager of Guardtime, a major software
developer for Estonia’s e-society. | <urn:uuid:f77c291d-2037-4634-8df8-2e4723e8bbca> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.bitcoindicate.com/2019/05/02/new-research-finds-estonia-challenging-switzerlands-crypto-valley-blockchain-leadership/ | 2020-09-28T11:19:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.915037 | 744 |

Bad odor from your dog's mouth is not just unpleasant -- it can also be a warning that your dog has a health issue that needs to be addressed. Some of the causes of bad breath in dogs include tooth decay, plaque, tartar, gum disease, gastrointestinal infections, kidney disease, sinus infections and mouth cancer. Sometimes bad breath in dogs is simply a result of having old food stuck between their teeth. Whatever the cause, you can help improve your dog's breath.
Take your dog to see a veterinarian. Have the veterinarian determine if your dog simply needs better dental hygiene, or if there is a more serious cause of the odor, such as mouth cancer. Ask the veterinarian to clean your dog's teeth, and get advice for follow-up home care.
Brush your dog's teeth daily at home. Use a soft bristled toothbrush or finger brush and toothpaste designed specifically for dogs. Purchase dog toothpaste in a flavor that your dog likes, such as beef or chicken. Let your dog sniff the paste first. Do not hold the dog down and force its mouth open. If you create a traumatic experience, it will resist you more next time and teeth brushing will become a difficult task. Instead, approach it slowly and with patience. Even if you are unable to complete a brushing on your first attempt, if you gently persist every day, once your dog is used to the idea it will be easy for you both.
Feed your dog crunchy food, not wet food. Do not soften the crunchy food with water, or mix wet food with crunchy. Dog food that is wet or soft is more likely to stick to teeth and cause bad breath.
Give your dog teeth-cleaning treats. Hard cookies and raw carrots are a good choice. Crunchy edible treats help scrape residual food off of teeth, which prevents bacteria and tartar buildup. Dog chew toys -- which you can purchase at a pet supply store -- can also help clean your dog's teeth. | <urn:uuid:2b532e3a-50a7-4395-ad9e-15a2eb318e9e> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.cuteness.com/article/rid-stinky-dog-breath | 2020-09-28T12:06:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.930368 | 439 |

In the absence of physical meetings at the club, we are offering information about online/phone meetings. Those can be found under the Meetings menu. We realize these are challenging times for everyone especially those of us with addiction issues, however technology makes it possible to still connect to each other and stay clean, sober and healthy in recovery. We are so grateful for your support and now you can still support the club and practice the 7th Tradition at virtual meetings through Venmo, our ID is @DupontCircleClub. More information can be found under News & Events
Below is the latest update from the DCC Board of Trustees.
June 20, 2020
Dear members and friends of the Dupont Circle Club,
As you know, Mayor Bowser will have the District enter Phase II on June 22. When this thing began back in March — more than three months ago — we never thought it would last this long.
Thanks to your support, we’re still in business. We’re working hard to meet your fellowship needs, and to meet you where you are.
Over 150 of you responded to our survey, and an overwhelming number of you want us to wait to open the Club until Phase III or longer. We remain committed to only opening when it’s safe for you to attend.
Your suggestions of how to make it work show your care and commitment to the Club.
Here’s some of your ideas for when we do open:
- Remove chairs to enforce social distancing
- Have meetings be first come, first served
- Do away with beverage service to protect monitors
- Don’t hold hands and don’t pass chips
- Keep supporting virtual meetings in any way we can
You are deeply divided by contact tracing, as are we. How can we make this District mandate work in a Club where anonymous groups meet?
And finally, we will mandate masks for entry with your full support. We will also have masks available for purchase.
One of the most innovative suggestions was to host just speakers at the club throughout the day and show them on Zoom. What do you think? Send me an email at email@example.com
Without the ability to pass the basket in the Club, we are having trouble meeting monthly expenses. We have a prudent reserve, but we aren’t sure how long that money has to last. Also, not all groups are paying rent since they’re not meeting at the Club.
Individuals can donate as little as $5 monthly and it still helps. Go to Donate to help. At this time, our monthly expenses are more than what our regularly scheduled monthly donations are. If you want to give right now, use @DupontCircleClub on your Venmo app.
With your assistance, we will get through this and be poised to open again as soon as feasible. Please be sure to sign up to get emails from us, and also check back at our website frequently www.dupontcircleclub.org.
Your Board of Directors is here to serve you.

A furniture and interior design company that celebrates Norwegian design heritage.
Founded by Annette Hoff, along with her partner Christoffer Kverneland and her sister Sunniva Hoff, Fram Oslo aims to make Norwegian design better known across the world. Every product made by the company is a love letter to Norway. Naturally, the brand’s name has a strong connection to the country. “Fram” refers to the world’s most famous polar ship, used between 1893 and 1912 by explorers Fridtjof Nansen and Roald Amundsen, the first man to reach the South Pole. The word “fram” also means “forward” in Norwegian and refers to a spirit of adventure and exploration. Here, it represents the company’s mission to bring Norwegian traditions and contemporary design into more homes around the world.
Apart from working with established and young designers, Fram Oslo also introduces their designs to various international markets, providing support to designers and connecting them to producers. The brand uses sustainable manufacturing methods and local materials to make modern, functional items meant to last for generations. The Fram Oslo collections draw inspiration from Norwegian design principles and the country’s cultural heritage natural landscapes, and traditional craftsmanship.
For the Bunad collection, the brand collaborated with designer Andreas Engesvik. The range of throw blankets and pillows pays homage to the traditional Norwegian folk costume, named “bunad.” Representing the costumes from various areas of Norway, the line recreates the specific colors of the folk costumes in pure new wool and contemporary patterns.
Made by the Grinakervev weaving company, each blanket and pillow is crafted according to Norwegian design and weaving traditions. All of the products from the Bunad series feature a modern zigzag pattern. Bright colors, bold contrasts, or delicate neutral hues reproduce the traditional bunad colors from Oslo, Trøndelag, Nordland, or Bergen, to name a few. The fine, pure new wool yarns give the Bunad blankets and pillows a soft, delicate feel. All of the items in this collection are elegant and comfortable at the same time. They enhance both the style and the level of comfort of living spaces.
The Norwegian Forest collection looks to the country’s woodlands for inspiration. Design duo Vera & Kyte have drawn inspiration from their own walks through forests to design the range. The towels feature bark or pine needle patterns. Their four colors represent the seasons and the way the natural landscapes change over the course of a year. Blue stands for winter, snow, and ice, while green represents the re-birth of spring. Yellow brings the brightness of the summer sun and a meadow’s vibrant flowers to mind, while red represents fall and the forest’s rusty hues.
The Haldar collection celebrates yet another aspect of Norwegian design, culture, and tradition. The name is a play on Norwegian words that refer to the act of holding onto things. Designed by Andreas Bergsaker, the line references the classic towel holders. More specifically, it draws inspiration from the old towel holder that has remained in the designer’s family for generations. A common item in kitchens across the country, the traditional towel holder’s purpose was to hold a beautifully decorated towel, with the everyday towels kept hidden. In this range, the designer has simplified the form of the traditional object. Minimalist and practical at the same time, the Holder products have a flexible mounting system that allows installation at any angle, in various compositions. Made of solid oak, the line features versatile colors like black and light brown.
All of the Fram Oslo collections are crafted in Norway, by companies with a long textile, weaving, or woodworking manufacturing traditions. Finally, Fram Oslo also continues the country’s long tradition of charitable work. The company donates 10% of profits to UNICEF programs. Discover the Fram Oslo Bunad collection in the Gessato Design Shop.

There’s no mistaking the fact that Nissan is rapidly increasing its production volumes for its 2011 Nissan Leaf in order to clear its order books and get 12,000 Leafs delivered in the U.S. by the end of 2011.
You’d think that by the start of next year, a Nissan Leaf might be easy and quick to buy, right?
Not necessarily so. Or rather, it may take a little longer than you’d hope.
Why? It boils down to two different stories we’ve come across in the last 24 hours.
Firstly, according to some would-be Leaf owners, the Japanese automaker is delaying the delivery of their cars until they can prove that suitable charging equipment exists in their home.
2011 Nissan Leaf
As Bloomberg reported earlier this week, some owners are being told that without showing Nissan proof that they have spent upwards of $2,000 on installing a dedicated 240V home charging station in their homes, their Nissan Leaf is not being delivered - despite the 2011 Nissan Leaf shipping with a 110V charging cable capable of charging it from any domestic outlet.
Particularly troublesome for those who rent, the requirement may also be a ploy to discourage Leaf customers from choosing to forgo the expensive hard-wired charging station in favor of an unsupported but proven hack to the 110V charging cable to charge their car from any 230V drier outlet at a fraction of the cost of an official charging station.
If that Nissan-induced delay isn’t bad enough for those on the waiting list, those who had decided to wait until the backlog was cleared before placing their order may have a nasty shock too.
2011 Nissan Leaf
Supply chain woes caused by the Japanese earthquakes earlier this year could mean the U.S. will continue to see a limited supply of Japanese-made leafs trickling into ports for the U.S. market - and U.S. production of the car could be held off indefinitely until Nissan’s supply chain and Japanese production volumes are back to full capacity.
Nissan’s assembly plant in Smyrna, Tennessee was scheduled to start making batteries for the all-electric hatchback as early as September next year, with full-scale production of the Leaf due to start in December.
Unprepared to give a firm start for U.S. production, Nissan bosses are focusing on restoring the Japanese production lines before worldwide production volumes are increased, but that could have a serious knock-on effect on Leaf popularity and sales volumes in an ever-increasingly competitive electric car market.
With both Ford and Chevrolet poised to make large numbers of domestically produced plug-in vehicles for the U.S. market in 2012, we’re not sure how many Leaf customers will continue to wait if alternatives exist.
What do you think of Nissan’s Leaf waiting list woes?

U2 kicked off the Australasian leg of The Joshua Tree Tour in New Zealand on Friday night, performing to a sold-out audience at Auckland’s Mt Smart Stadium. For Kiwi fans of the band, it was a hugely emotional occasion. Reuben Raj reports for Hot Press...
It was Noel Gallagher's unenviable task to warm up the crowd in the Mt. Smart Stadium, before the arrival of U2 for the opening of the Australasian leg of The Joshua Tree Tour. Gallagher sang and performed in his typical laconic style, allowing his ex-Oasis bandmate Gem Archer (guitars), Mike Rowe (keyboards), Chris Sharrock (drums) and Russell Pritchard from The Zutons (bass) to build each tune perfectly with the aid of a three-piece brass section. They played familiar Gallagher solo favourites ‘Holy Mountain’, ‘This Is The Place’ and ‘Black Star Rising’ and a new song, ‘Wandering Star’. The backing vocals of YSEE, Jessica Greenfield and Charlotte Marionneau weree a particular highlight, significantly lifting each song.
The crowd’s lust for Oasis material was quenched with ‘Wonderwall’, ‘Stop Crying Your Heart Out’ and ‘Don’t Look Back In Anger’. They finished with a rousing version of the Beatles’ ‘All You Need Is Love’, before Noel Gallagher and his ’exotic’ (Bono’s word, not mine) High Flying Birds took a bow.
The 200 x 45 ft custom-built screen on the main stage of The Joshua Tree Tour set is a towering mammoth of tech wizardry, made up of 1,040 individual video panels. It's been painted to look like a golden piece of cardboard with a silver Joshua Tree on top. The tree extends above the screen and becomes the visual centrepiece of the show. The B-stage that extends into the audience from the main stage is a perfect shadow of the tree.
Larry Mullen Jr. started up the familiar drum intro to ‘Sunday Bloody Sunday’, as Bono, The Edge and Adam Clayton walked over to join him at the B-stage for the start of the show. The packed audience surrounding the stage was turned into a bloody red sea by the stage lights, before the band powered into ‘New Year’s Day’ and ‘Bad’. The Edge’s signature guitar sound – underpinned by Clayton’s basslines and Mullen’s precise drumbeats – rang out loud and clear across the horizon and into the angry night sky. Bono sounded even better than when I heard him 10 years ago, during the 360° Tour in Houston, Texas.
“We worry about you, America… and that’s why we’re doing The Joshua Tree Tour,” shared Bono, before launching into ‘Pride (In The Name of Love)’, an anthem for equality that matters now more than ever. Moving words and provocative messages began to stream across the gigantic screen, as if to question our own actions (or inaction) in addressing social injustice.
The band ascended to the main stage to perform The Joshua Tree album in sequence, as the giant screen exploded into life. Dutch photographer and long-time U2 collaborator Anton Corbijn revisited Death Valley, Zabriskie Point and other locations to produce a brand new set of glorious and haunting films to accompany the band’s performance.
An endless road into the desert, a female cowboy with a lasso and a Salvation Army band were just some of the many striking images that visually complemented – and in most cases, heightened – the expressions and themes of each song. Some amazing real-time video effects were also employed, when Bono used a hand-held video-cam and a mini-spotlight to project images of the band and himself on the screen. Thick plumes of smoke coupled with a cold South-Easterly wind added to the apocalyptic mood of certain tracks, notably ‘Bullet the Blue Sky’ and ‘Exit’.
U2’s bond with New Zealand can be attributed in a special way to the late Greg Carroll, a man from Auckland, who was part of the U2 crew in the 1980s, and also a personal friend of the band. U2 paid their respects by visiting the One Tree Hill domain near Auckland’s Cornwall Park and also proudly sang the heart-rending ballad of the same name, ending with Greg Carroll’s handsome and happy face on screen. (See main photo).
They ended the main set with ‘Angel of Harlem’. But with the sense of anticipation still running high, U2 returned for a brilliant eight-song encore. Bono, adorned with face-paint and teasing his megalomaniacal side, took the energy in the stadium up a few notches with ‘Elevation’ and ‘Vertigo’. A mirror disco-ball, right on top of the towering cranes, shone brightly as the band led everyone on their feet throughout ‘Even Better Than The Real Thing’.
It was now time for a change of pace as Bono, sans make-up, sang ‘Every Breaking Wave’, from Songs of Innocence, with The Edge on electric piano. It is striking that something of such recent vintage was nonetheless one of the most powerful tracks of the night, showcasing Bono’s bold and versatile vocals. There was another special moment during the encore when photos of female pioneers and trailblazers filled the screen in sensational colours, while U2 performed ‘Ultra Violet (Light My Way)’ to support the One organisation’s Poverty Is Sexist campaign.
Saving the best (and perhaps the most memorable for many Kiwis) for last, U2 dedicated the incredibly moving ballad ‘One’ to the victims of the Christchurch Mosque Shootings, on 15 March 2019 – and to New Zealanders for responding to the horrific act in such a gracious and exemplary manner. With some of those victims having travelled up, to be at the concert in Auckland, it was a moment of unique solidarity and power.
Without a doubt, U2 continue to reign supreme with their dedication to peace, love and music: straight-up rock music that has it roots firmly planted in a commitment to justice and equality. The Joshua Tree Tour 2019 will see the band head to their first Tokyo shows since the Vertigo Tour in 2006 and also to Australia, Singapore, Seoul, Manila and Mumbai.
By the time it reaches Mumbai on 15 December 2019, The Joshua Tree Tour will have played to almost 3 million fans at just 66 shows, across Europe, North & South America, Mexico, New Zealand and Asia. In truth, however, it is a show that the whole world should see.

There is probably no other element in Japanese culture that more instantly recognizable and associated with Japan than Sushi. Show anyone in the civilized world a picture of sushi and they’ll know exactly what it is.
While there are scores of different varieties your typical sushi will have a core of meat morsels (usually seafood) and a vegetable or two, wrapped in white rice and then wrapped in a sheet of ‘nori’ (toasted seaweed).
Varieties include “temaki-zushi” which is a cone of nori with rice and vegetables inside. If you think of it as an ice cream cone you’d be on the right track, with the cone being the seaweed and the ice cream being the rice and veggies. Also there is “ura-maki’ which is the same as a normal piece of sushi, except that it has an addition outer layer of rice outside the nori layer.
The meats and vegetables used in the sushi’s core vary greatly, typical choices include:
- Pickled plumb
- Daikon (Japanese white radish)
As you can imagine sushi is readily available, be it at the convenience store, super market, restaurants and sushi shops. Quality varies, whereas you can spend $200 yen for some cheap sushi at the Hyaku Yen (dollar store) you can spend over $1000 yen at a sushi shop for a plate of four pieces.
For vegetarians, ‘veggie’ only sushi exists, which will have simply a slice of avocado or an alternative veggie in place of the meat.
A sushi plate is typically served with an assortment of dipping sauces/garnishes, such as ginger slivers, wasabi, soy sauce etc etc.
- And more
These fine fillets are served raw, usually on a platter of a few different varieties; along with wasabi, shredded daikon, and scallions.
Because of the preponderance of high grade meat, sashimi is typically more expansive than sushi.
What do you get when you mix sashimi and sushi? The answer is ‘Nigiri-zushi’
Picture a molded finger of rice, on top of which lays a fillet of raw tuna which completely covers it. And there you have Nigiri-zushi
Vegetables and seafood deep fried in a light coat of batter for a short amount of time. This dish came originally from Portugal and, like many other things Portuguese, was imported into the Japanese culture.
Or ‘Curry Rice’, as you may suspect this dish was imported from India, but over time has evolved, acquiring its own taste. It is a favourite among the Japanese and you will find this dish readily available on restaurant menus.
Japan’s answer to French Fondue (or maybe not), regardless of this dish’s origins it is set up similarly to France’s Fondue, Taiwan’s Hot Pot, and Singapore’s Steamboat. The question is who is copying who exactly? Or did they all independently invent the same thing?
There is a central cooking wok/pot with broth (not oil) which is then loaded up with a variety of veggies and spice. Guests then take turns placing meat thin slices of meat (meats include, pork, beef, shrimp, clam and others) for a few seconds and then recovering them with chop sticks or spoons and placing them on their individual plates.
A wide variety of condiments are at hand, spicy, sweat salty etc etc.
The words ‘shabu shabu’ are said to mimic the sound of stirring the pot with chop sticks.
Mashed potatoes and tidbits of pork are coated in a crunchy corn-based skin and then deep fried. The result is a tasty patty you can take with you on the go.
Varieties include beef, shrimp, chicken etc etc.
Being deep-fried it should be noted that they are in fact rather greasy (the skin soaking up much oil) so don’t be surprised if you get a headache after eating a few.
The omelet is cooked on a griddle and then drizzled with Japanese Mayo & a sweet worcestershire-ish type sauce, then it is topped with nearly a dozen different meats, veggies and spices.
A container of six gyoza in Tokyo will cost around $300.
A staple for American college kids as well as the Japanese themselves, instant ramen has been exported successfully all over the world, providing consumers with cheap, filling and somewhat delicious eating.
However real ramen in Tokyo bears no resemblance to the Top Ramen you may have had in American food stores. None at all.
A real bowl of ramen in Tokyo is quite often rather large, almost enough for a whole meal. It includes slices of pork, boiled egg, seaweed, onions, other greens and spices.
Your average bowl of ramen will cost apprx $700 yen at the lowest and $1000 at the highest. Of course you can go to the Hyaku Yen and score a bowl of instant ramen for $100 yen but there really is no substitute.
The broth is mildly flavoured and can include veggies, tempora, seafood and others.
Like ramen, there are even instant udon noodle packages available at some supermarkets.
Visually, there is not much to say about Soba. It’s a ball of noodles. But that doesn’t quite do it justice and may certainly insult Soba Chef Masters, who spend literally years mastering the fine art of Soba. It is considered equivalent to the art of Sushi, (Where chefs spend over four years learning and perfecting their craft).
But how much could there be to just a plate of noodles? Good question!
Much of the skill comes from the hand making the buckwheat noodles from scratch. The noodles are much thinner compared to Udon and are typically brown (due to the buckwheat) Occasionally in some specialty Soba shops you will find green tea soba (macha) which has a particularly unique taste.
It is served either cold or hot, in soup or standing along with veggies.
As you can imagine the flavour is mild and boring, however it is rather filling and inexpensive. Expect to find them for $100 yen at the convenience store.
Onigiri is a typical Japanese light eating snack, taking only seconds to prepare and costing literally just pennies. | <urn:uuid:3cbfa21e-6a1e-4047-ae5b-758187bbd0ca> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.japanimal.org/food-japanese-cuisine.php | 2020-09-28T12:24:01Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.954253 | 1,358 |
TMZ has confirmed … last October, Simon hooked up with a girl he met at Drai’s nightclub in Hollywood. He took her home, but the next morning she was gone and so was his computer and his wallet loaded with cash.
Simon — who has his Bev Hills mansion wired for security — called the cops. The footage showed the woman, cops tracked her down and she handed over the computer and the wallet sans cash.
Although it’s unclear exactly when Simon broke up with fiancee Mezhgan Hussainy, sources connected with Simon tell us it was BEFORE the theft.

If you drive regularly and pay attention to the vehicles around you, then you may be surprised at the number of business owned cars and trucks on the road. The individuals who are behind the wheels of those vehicles drive as part of their employment, but that doesn’t mean that they are any safer than your average, everyday motorist. They can be distracted, tired and even intoxicated, putting themselves and others at risk of being harmed in a serious car accident. When this happens and damages are suffered by an innocent individual, legal action may be appropriate.
However, an accident caused by an employee may open up more options for victims to recover the compensation they deserve. This reality can be attributed to the legal theory of vicarious liability. Under vicarious liability, an employer can be held liable for the actions of his or her employees. What does this mean for an accident victim? It means that he or she may be able to sue both the driver and his or her employer, thereby allowing him or her to have access to deeper pockets that may be better suited to paying for the full extent of one’s damages.
In order to succeed on a vicarious liability claim, a victim must prove certain elements. First, the plaintiff must show that the employee was on the clock at the time of the accident. Second, the victim must satisfactorily prove that his or her injuries were the result of a duty that falls within the employee’s scope of work. Lastly, the victim must prove that the employer was benefitting from the work being conducted at the time of the accident.
Of course, in order to win on a personal injury claim the victim will have to prove negligence and causation, but once a case for those elements is firmly established, then vicarious liability can be addressed. It is worth noting that proving these elements can be challenging, often requiring the skilled use of evidence, witness testimony, and competent cross-examination of the defense’s witnesses. Thus, many accident victims pursuing a vicarious liability claim find it beneficial to have a strong legal advocate on their side. | <urn:uuid:359f57c5-aba0-4b25-b08c-b2bd9d96ba34> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.phoenixpersonalinjurylawblog.com/2017/09/what-is-vicarious-liability/ | 2020-09-28T11:09:14Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.972974 | 423 |

Women traveling in India are often warned to be careful. But there’s another persistent danger that fewer visitors are aware of: Racism.
On the night of Jan. 31, a Tanzanian woman was reportedly beaten, stripped and paraded naked by a mob in the southern city of Bengaluru after a road accident. The woman was not involved, but the crowd assumed that she knew the driver responsible because he too was black, from Sudan.
While police in India do not keep a separate record of racially motivated crimes, incidents like this one come into the limelight every year. Last March, two separate mob attacks were recorded against African students in Bengaluru. In 2014, a huge crowd chased three African men through a subway station in New Delhi. The murder of a Nigerian living in Goa led to protests and a diplomatic standoff between the two countries in 2013.
Even aside from such attacks, expats in India, especially those from African countries, have horror stories to tell about the racism they face every day.
“The other day, someone spat at me,” said Hassan Mubarak, a Nigerian student who has lived in Greater Noida, a city outside Delhi, for three years. “They run away like I’m a monkey, just because of the color of my skin? It saddens me deeply.”
Mubarak is one of thousands of students from the African continent who move to India in the hope of a better education. Technical courses at private universities in satellite cities like Noida and Greater Noida attract hundreds of foreign students every year. While students form the majority of African expats in India, the country is also a popular destination for medical tourists because of its relatively cheap but high-quality hospitals.
However, despite seeing African expatriates, students and visitors in their midst for many years — centuries, in fact — many Indians are yet to become comfortable with them. The alienation makes stereotypes and rumors circulate quickly.
“Some are fine, but some are very noisy, they wear obscene clothes,” said Sunil Kumar, a security guard at a Greater Noida compound where many African students live. “One of them broke a guard’s hand here,” he added. Further questioning revealed that the guards had used sticks to beat the student after he had “deliberately” run an auto-rickshaw over a guard’s foot.
“They just look scary sometimes,” said Pradeep Kumar, a pizza delivery man. He referred to Africans as “habshi,” a derogatory word used for a community of African slaves brought in by the British during the colonial period.
“I heard once that one of them cut up and ate someone,” Kumar said. He did not know if the story was true and had never faced any trouble with African customers, but said he did not fear white visitors the same way.
“They run away like I'm a monkey, just because of the color of my skin? It saddens me deeply."
- Hassan Mubarak, Nigerian student
Words like the one Kumar used and others denigrating the color of their skin are all too familiar to many African students.
“I have never experienced it myself because I am lighter and sometimes confused for Indian, but my friends are abused in Hindi — people spit, point and laugh at them,” said 20-year-old Horacio Mendes, a student from Angola.
He has been in India for a year, and thinks that white visitors face similar ridicule. “It’s directed at any outsiders, but the Indians studying in the universities are better because they are younger and their minds are more open.”
As outsiders, many feel that they cannot claim the same rights Indians do, and that the police would not take them seriously. Nigerian student Emmanuel Anuwe points to discrimination among Indians themselves, like the racism faced frequently in Delhi by people from India’s northeastern states, who say that other Indians call them “chinki” — Chinese — and treat them as second-class citizens.
“You can tell people think you are dangerous or inferior by their body language, but it happens everywhere,” said Anuwe. “As an outsider I probably can’t complain, I just try to be approachable to Indians.”
Outsiders have little reason to hope that authorities will help. The Tanzanian woman attacked last month claims that a police officer was present during her ordeal but failed to intervene. In the days after the incident, police and state officials insisted that there was no racial motive to the violence.
In January 2014, a member of the Delhi state assembly, Somnath Bharti — then serving as state law minister — led his supporters in a raid on a south Delhi apartment housing several African women, whom he accused of operating a drug and prostitution racket.
The group did not have a warrant and no proof was found, while the women filed a complaint of molestation — yet many residents thanked Bharti for his service. He was subsequently re-elected. Several Africans living in the area, meanwhile, said they felt forced to leave.
While Anuwe says that racism is everywhere in the world, Mubarak finds it is worse in India. While he would have fought similar slurs and intimidation back home in Nigeria, Mubarak says, here he runs from confrontation.
“Even if they hit me, I won’t say anything because I am a foreigner,” he says. “It’s not my country.” | <urn:uuid:a4859e3d-064f-46e6-b865-9c7ad90d53fc> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.pri.org/stories/2016-02-25/being-black-india-can-be-deadly | 2020-09-28T10:50:38Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401600771.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928104328-20200928134328-00598.warc.gz | en | 0.975984 | 1,161 |
Letter: Stunned to have been ticketed at Stuart city docks
Boaters beware. I used the downtown Stuart city docks over the Thanksgiving holiday week and received a $25 parking violation.
When responding to contest the ticket, I was told if contested and was not successful there would be an additional $100 fine (factor in also a day of work missed).
This is unfair. Slips are not roped off and no signs are posted stating no dockage.
I was told I should have known because the 200-yard "ramp" (not dock) to land was posted.
City of Stuart, do what's right; post the slips to inform boaters, not pedestrians

Those who are acquainted with the many books and films produced recently about the 20 July 1944 plot to assassinate Hitler led by Count Claus Schenk von Stauffenberg may have the impression that the plot was a result of the aversion of the German aristocracy to the political ambitions of a commoner like Hitler. In fact, Stauffenberg’s failed attempt was only the last of a series of attempts to assassinate Hitler that originated from General Ludwig Beck (1880–1944). Beck was not an aristocrat but belonged to the officer class and resigned his post as Chief of Staff of the German Army in August 1938 mainly on account of his disagreement with Hitler’s aggressive foreign political aims.
The German aristocracy itself was incorporated into the National Socialist movement from the twenties on without much difficulty, even though some of the aristocratic National Socialists had to tolerate the contempt of peers who were opposed to the socialist aspects of Hitler’s government. According to Stephan Malinowski, in all, about 300 noble families of the lower aristocracy based in Prussia contributed about 3,600 members to the National Socialist Party, and the number of adherents from the upper ruling families rose from 70 in the thirties to around 270 by 1945. Most of these were Prussian and Protestant rather than Bavarian and Catholic, since the Bavarian Catholic aristocrats were dedicated to the House of Wittelsbach, whose crown prince, Rupert of Bavaria, was firmly opposed to Hitler and was exiled in December 1939 to Italy while other members of his family were interned for some years in concentration camps.
It is true that Stauffenberg and some of his fellow conspirators in the 20 July plot were shocked by Hitler’s extreme persecution of the Jews, but it cannot be clearly said that all of the conspirators were impelled by philo-Semitic sentiments since the German aristocracy was, in general, anti-Semitic and anti-Marxist like Hitler himself. Count Wolf-Heinrich Helldorf (whose 1934 essay is presented here) was in fact a vigorous anti-Semite in the thirties and may even have played a part in the organisation of the Kristallnach riots, though he eventually joined the conspirators led by Stauffenberg. That all the aristocratic National Socialists did not revolt against Hitler is also clear from the fact that the editor of the collection of essays here presented, Prince Friedrich-Christian of Schaumburg-Lippe, remained a proud National Socialist even after the war.
The following three extracts from the collection of nine essays by aristocratic National Socialists that was edited by Prince Friedrich-Christian of Schaumburg-Lippe, Wo war der Adel? (Where was the aristocracy?, Berlin: Zentralverlag, 1934), show that many of the aristocrats indeed welcomed the opportunity given to them by the National Socialist movement to renew their own aristocratic estate after it had been destroyed alongside the German monarchy in 1918. In turn, the elevated codes of conduct of the aristocrats as traditional rulers of the German domains helped to strengthen the chivalrous image that is often associated with the German military of the Third Reich. It is true, however, that the SS as developed by Himmler from 1929 came to represent the real elite formation of the Third Reich since it was originally created as a bodyguard for Hitler and expressed more directly the dedication to the Führer that was the hallmark of the entire Third Reich. The members of the old aristocracy were absorbed into the SS, as well as into the earlier SA, without much strain since the old and the new elites had in common a desire to renew Germany after its devastating defeat in World War I. One feature that may have been novel, however, about the involvement of the aristocrats in the National Socialist movement is the more socialist conception of themselves that they now manifested, no longer as superior leaders of an anonymous population of subjects but as close collaborators with the latter in the task of building a new German empire.

Count Bernhard von Solms-Laubach [1900–1938]
Director of the National Theatre,
The Aristocracy is dead – Long live the Aristocracy!
We do not wish to be sentimental, we admit openly that which everybody, however, already knows. That there is no aristocracy any longer in Germany that in its entirety is still capable of representing a clear ideal. The aristocracy is dead because it has killed itself. We stand before a sad remnant, before a burial mound that has been raised up with effort but without jewels, and unlamented, to which one has given the impressive name ‘German aristocratic society’.
And there was once a time when all the names had a strong resonance and an inner significance, when all the families had a calling in the nation, all the names and all the families as they are neatly recorded today in peerage lists and Gotha pocketbooks as though for museum purposes. There was a time when the German aristocracy was a living fact, when there was bound with the aristocratic name a sacred responsibility towards the people, when the German aristocracy was the bearer of a quite definite worldview, an idealistic worldview in which one’s own advantage could have no meaning compared to the duty to serve to the utmost the people, the country, the state and its representatives. Then the aristocrat stood naturally at the very front, as a spearhead, for the affairs of his people, ready to give up and sacrifice not only his life but also his possessions, if that might help. Everywhere in the Empire they were based in their residences and castles like the conscience of the people, watchmen and preachers, but always fighters for the existence of the Holy Roman Empire, each alone for himself, bound to one another only through the common goal – and one who did not acknowledge this goal through fighting and sacrificing and made it his own was considered a traitor, an apostate. Germany owes its life to this aristocracy.
But if Germany had depended on the present-day aristocracy it would have died along with it. The aristocrats still dwell everywhere in the Reich in their residences and castles, but it is only due to the people that they are recognised as their conscience. They no longer watch over or preach and, if they fight, then it is in defence of their property or their vanity. Every aristocrat no longer stands by himself, today they are organised, but their organisation lacks any goal that rises beyond their selfish aims. Anyone of them that acknowledges the goal of his nation in fighting and sacrificing and internalises this is today a traitor, a renegade.
This all of us who, members of the German aristocracy based on our origin, were able to be incorporated into the National Socialist movement during the battle period must have experienced in a personal way to a sufficient degree. One should not today expunge the fact that we took up the fight in the movement under the express disapproval of our so-called peers, that we were fought and laughed at. If we felt it as obvious to fight when our nation is in the process of fighting for its life — perhaps because we were conscious of the responsibility and the duties transmitted to us from ancient times by our name, that is, because we belonged to the German aristocracy — the opinion of our aristocratic colleagues was the opposite, namely, that we became National Socialists in spite of belonging to the aristocracy. We were, considered from the intellectual viewpoint of the German aristocratic society, actually the traitors, the renegades, and would have been condemnable if we had not been granted extenuating circumstances on account of our idiocy. Besides, it was not in good taste. Politically one had to be a German nationalist, but that one was not a monarchist was an absurd thought. For the further pursuits of the really energetic there was available, besides, the Gentlemen’s Club and, for the others, country riding clubs and — one may perhaps add — leadership positions in the Stahlhelm.
To express it briefly: the German aristocracy disgraced itself to death. It pathetically missed the last chance to prove its raison d’être. Here too exceptions confirm the rule. The question is hard and clear which the people today pose to you: Where were you aristocratic gentlemen when Germany perished? What did you do when the adversity became ever more unbearable? Where did you fight and what did you sacrifice? You thought of yourselves and how you could save yourselves! You thought of yourself and the welfare of your family and perhaps regretted the misery of the people, perhaps even found it depressing, but did nothing! Did nothing! And you dare to raise a claim even today to leadership?
The people have known you for long. I shall never be able to forget with what suspicion I was accepted into the National Socialist movement and in the SA on account of my name. With what mistrust the workers stood against me at first because they attributed to such a person everything bad rather than an honest National Socialist disposition. Remarkable how this mistrust, this suspicion accorded with the attitude of the aristocratic society members! National Socialist even though one is aristocratic. This contradiction signifies the self-esteem of the aristocracy and at the same time indicates its estimation among the people. Exclusivity, which arose from the obscurantism that was inclined to rest comfortably on the laurels of one’s ancestors and to skim off the cream of history as a traditionally born leader, the self-willed isolation, detached the aristocracy from the people and killed its instinct. The result: a great yesterday, a petty today and no tomorrow at all.
The people have become mature. The leaders and saviours have emerged from the people. Adolf Hitler arose from the soul of the people. You, aristocratic gentlemen, may bristle because that insults your vanity, because each of you in your opinion must be the leader, you might agitate and stir up trouble, as you still do today, but the aristocracy is dead, because you have killed it by your behaviour, your attitude, your selfishness. Besides, your inveighing too will cease. The aristocracy is dead and already there arises from the people a new aristocracy filled with the sacred duty of building up Germany. New names have once again a strong resonance and inner significance. A new elite has a new calling among the people. A new aristocracy rises again as the bearers of the idealistic worldview in which one’s own advantage cannot mean anything compared to the duty to serve the people, the country, the state and its representatives to the utmost. One who stands at the very front is the aristocrat!
The aristocracy is dead, long live the aristocracy! We thank our Führer that, when the old failed, he gave and trained for the people his new aristocracy, for which it is no longer a matter of names and external appearances but which simply exists and fights.

Dr. Achim von Arnim [1881–1940],
Professor of Military Science, Technical University of Berlin,
The German aristocracy belongs to Adolf Hitler
One can grow to be a National Socialist, but the disposition must indeed be inborn. Forms that are once internally imprinted begin to develop no matter how hard one tries to disperse them. As the son of a Prussian officer and a mother from Alsace, a certain dichotomy of temperament was allotted to me. Along with Prussian sobriety I possess enough imaginativeness and sprightliness to have a quick sympathetic understanding of new things.
My parents lived in various garrisons of the Imperial Guard and, like every officer’s son, I attended the high school. It was the nineties of the last century, in which the memory of the victorious wars of 1866 and 1870/1 was still alive. It seems to me that the German nation was brought too quickly to life through the success of Bismarckian politics. Wealth and splendour had fallen suddenly into the lap of our people, who had hitherto been modest and sober. It thereby lost its spiritual equanimity. The German, distinguished by his depth and his rich world of feeling, developed in the last 20 years of the century into a man of rational understanding and a materialist. The school offered no counterpoise. The teachers were not aware that they had to conserve in the best sense the tradition of German Humanism and the idealistic tendency of German Classicism. Of course there were among them men rich in ideas and pedagogically skilled, whose instruction I still remember with gladness.
In general, however, a too copious information was transmitted to us and, specifically, without any political influence. I can especially not forget that, during my schooldays, no explanation of the political development of our nation was given to us. We learnt nothing about social and economic development, nothing about the significance of the battles that began with the French Revolution, of the opposition to Liberalism at the beginning of the previous century, of the dissemination of the mercantile spirit and of capitalism. To be sure, one occasionally heard frightful things about the Social Democrats — at the elections one was frightened by the increasing percentages of their mandate. I went to school for many years in Spandau, there there was a strong population of workers with whom there was no connection at all. We high school students met only with our peers, and I always had the feeling that the boys of the public school were particularly rough and uncouth.
But a slightly better insight was then given by my entry into the army. In just a few months — and that is too short a time, the prospective cadet was, when he left school, consigned to the squads. I served in the First Regiment of the Imperial Guard and this had the best reserve troop from all of Prussia, tall blond men from the healthiest families of our nation. I had imagined the time in the ‘barrack room’ as something very unpleasant, as being in the company of a number of coarse, immature and boorish fellows and still remember my surprise that this image did not correspond at all to the reality. On the contrary, the young soldiers with whom one lived — 20 in a room — were actually, in their moral constitution and habits, cleaner and more modest than the higher society with which I later socialised. It was also not difficult to find the right tone in communication, one just could not act like something better — and indeed one was not, for, as a scholar, one was not so familiar with the practical matters of life as the young soldiers. I then had similar good experiences as a young corporal. This first period as a soldier, which lasted only a short time, was a period of learning, perhaps not for the prospective officer but for the growing man. Nowadays, the young men, and even the women, come into contact more often, through the German Youth, the German Girls’ League, the Hitler Youth and community service, with all strata of the working people. Thereby they develop a stable judgement and learn to have the necessary consideration in dealings with men of different backgrounds.
The pre-war officer corps, which I entered a year and a half later, did not at all correspond to the caricature that was made of it at that time in the Liberal satirical papers and in the bourgeois world. There was alive, especially still in the older generations, the sincerity and loyalty of the older generation that had fought the wars for unification. Fastidiousness in service, conscientiousness, the consciousness that one had to set an example through personal commitment, the feeling of responsibility for subordinates and even one of the necessity of a comradely relationship with them was totally alive.
But I became aware early of one thing, that this officer corps, not only in my regiment but everywhere else, represented an exceptional class that was, to a certain extent, separated by a glass wall from the life, activity and feeling of the rest of the nation. In it there lived on a portion of the eighteenth century. The officer was obligated to the warlord and felt himself bound only to him, and, because reverence for the monarchy and devotion to its sustenance was his political morality, the officer believed that he did not need to worry about other political questions. It was the time when Germany stood at its absolute peak economically. Everywhere great fortunes arose. One did not know of any unemployment. Every worker could hope that he could, through his own industriousness and economising, conduct his children to a higher profession. There existed therefore the total possibility that the upper strata would continually supplement itself from the people.
In reality, however, that took place only to a small degree. The institution of the ‘one-year service’ formed an absolute class border. One who had taken this test — he did not even have to have served for a year — belonged to the cultivated and higher strata, everybody else was a subaltern and belonged to the people. If we look back retrospectively at this period with Liberal eyes, we must ask ourselves how it was possible that Social Democracy rose so powerfully in a period when everybody had a good income. From a materialistic standpoint there is no answer to that. But from the idealistic standpoint, it is a question of the longing of a great part of our people who had reached adulthood in the course of the century for a national community, for a spiritual rapprochement with the so-called higher strata. Not all of us overlooked the role of the Jews in that period. But one who spoke of a Jewish danger was laughed at as a fantasist. If as a young man I had been invited to become a Freemason I would have accepted the invitation in the belief that one may find a rich spiritual life in this order. But this spiritual life and this understanding were lacking precisely in those classes with whom we officers socialised. The bureaucrats, owners of large landed properties and other highly placed persons with whom we socialised were duty-conscious and industrious but matter-of-fact men careful of their careers. Only seldom did one find intellectually open-minded and artistically inspired personalities. The attitude to the people was benevolent but derived from a feeling of an obvious inborn social superiority. Manual work was considered as inferior compared to intellectual work, which we supposedly performed.
We would have been able to obtain stronger impressions of the life and feeling of the people if there had existed the possibility of being instructed on worldview, political and social questions. But who would give this instruction? We officers were considered educators of the youth entrusted to us and doubtless did our best. Indeed, in the education for the soldier’s profession and war, performance was at an optimum. But the worldview education which we had to impart through our instruction had to be a failure because we ourselves lacked the necessary knowledge. It was indeed so, as the Führer said: before the period of service nobody cared about the young man, and after his service period neither. One knew hardly anything about the Marxist organisations and the trade unions. Their intensive propaganda work was hidden from us.
Then there came the war and very close contact with all strata of the population on the front in cohabitation, for weeks, in damp trenches and in basic accommodation. I definitely believe that not only I but all the older officers of the front felt that we had a close sense of bonding with comrades of all service grades and that in moments of danger it did not matter if one wore the epaulets of an officer or a corporal’s cross or a lance-corporal’s button. To all those who felt in this way the Revolution, with the sudden revolt of the soldiers against the officers, was then a bitter disappointment. One recognised soon that it was not the good elements of our squad that became mutineers and deserters but young elements that had been poisoned in their hometowns and were inexperienced, who had to suffer the bitter deprivations of the wartime in the last years and had perceived the affliction in their homeland. With no defenses, they were exposed to the influence of Red propaganda. The revolution period separated the men. The major part of the officer corps and the members of the former higher classes were starkly against the revolution and its manifestations. These men saw only the ugly external images and wished to hide from the knowledge that here a people who had been misguided strove for a better social status through a semi-conscious longing. They should not at that time have separated themselves in this way from the people but followed the path that Adolf Hitler did, attempting from the start to give the people what it strove for and to combat what was pernicious.
While most of the officers, also demoralised, had to take up the difficult battle for survival and persevered in their rejection of the social questions, I remained for a while vacillating and searching. Finally ,thrown in the country, I found myself one day, in 1925, a District Leader of the Stahlhelm. One had heard something of Adolf Hitler and his movement in Munich only through the Putsch. It is astonishing and hardly believable today how little one knew, here in the country in the east, of the National Socialists. I saw my duty as saving the small town workers, and especially the rural workers, in my district, filled with estates and small cities, from Marxism. These were strata of the population into which the Red organisation had not yet penetrated fully. The Stahlhelm had inscribed on its shield the spirit of the soldiers of the front, that is, the community of the comrades in the trenches. With lorries and bands we drove through the country, held speeches in every village — whereby there was also a ‘beer movement’ — and founded everywhere local groups of the Stahlhelm. Even the landowners and — what was not always very easy — the agricultural bureaucrats were won over to our ideas and, in this way, we succeeded in the beginning in achieving something that was of course not even closely as well-thought out, but similarly felt, as what Adolf Hitler strove for.
If later, after a seven-year activity as Stahlhelm leader, I turned my back on the organisation, I must give the reasons for that without wishing to hurt the former comrades of the Stahlhelm who had been won over to our cause. There had entered a certain torpidity in my feelings on account of the faltering politics of the federal leadership, which had to wriggle through with difficulty between a more conservative and military orientation and a social orientation, and, in the meantime, National Socialism had arisen among us. In all villages and small towns there were Brown departments, and the Stahlhelm people were the proof that these were really more active, that, in neighbouring Berlin, hard battles for rule were fought in the Red quarters, that a strong atmosphere of intellectual tension emanated from the Hitler movement and that a good and clearly orientated press helped the movement to move forward. The Stahlhelm found itself at a dead end since it did not want to fight in a parliamentary way and did not have the power to rise to power with arms. Finally the social question also seemed to me to fade somewhat. The workers won over by me and bound to me for a long time expressed many doubts about the goals of the Stahlhelm. They seemed to them as if they were all about a movement in favour of the old ruling classes.
So finally there was a certain discord because I freely acknowledged my view which favoured National Socialism, and that led to my exit from the organisation, which made some sensation at that time, when the SA was prohibited. There followed a period of bitter hostilities on the part of former friends and comrades. But I can only say that I have not regretted my step one day and have seen during my career in the SA so much that was elevating and invigorating that it seems to me a good fortune to be able to continue to experience the present times. If the Prussian aristocracy for the most part showed at first little understanding of the way that I took that must be explained by its strong adherence to the Prussian tradition. The feeling of rulership cultivated through the generations, especially of the rural aristocracy, perhaps made it difficult to find a way to our people the way we in the SA did. But I think that the conviction must seize some earlier, others later, but hopefully all one day, that another way than the one that our Führer has taken is not passable for our German people. If we wish to come through victoriously in the tremendous fight for survival that we must still undertake in order to sustain our nation, given our unfortunate international situation and our unequal mixture of races, it will happen only if all the strata of our sorely tested people march together with complete trust, and that is possible only in National Socialism.

The Aristocracy and National Socialism
The entire public and private life in Germany today is influenced in a decisive manner by National Socialism. Everything that was ready and willing to cooperate in the building up of the nation is gathered under the sign of the swastika. We have to regretfully acknowledge that the bearers of old aristocratic names are involved to an extremely small degree in authoritative positions in this work of construction within the movement and in the state. This fact is especially surprising considering that the NSDAP has declared not once but many times that it would reach out its hand for the purpose of cooperative work to anybody who would place himself at its disposal unconditionally. The reasons that led to this superior aloofness of the aristocracy should be investigated here, and I think that we will reach a conclusion most easily if we review once again the political development in our nation during and after the war and, in this way, examine the attitude of the aristocracy to the National Socialist idea.
The ruling and state-governing classes in the Bismarckian empire were the officer and bureaucratic classes. Aristocratic officers and bureaucrats stood here in a preferred and leading position. When Germany decided in 1914 on the fateful four-year long armed conflict and the Prussian German army marched in the glow of its centuries-old military culture to the defence of the homeland and carried the war to hostile countries, the Prussian German aristocracy, following the old tradition, occupied a leading position within this national army. This army fought and won in the battlefields of the whole world and, at its head, fought and bled the German aristocracy. Once again, before the great collapse of the monarchy and the aristocracy, those fit for military service from the aristocratic families were conscious of their proudest privilege sanctified by tradition: they died a heroic death in a natural fulfilment of duty.
If, later, people repeatedly and rightly pointed to the total inaction of individual families and members of the German aristocracy, one must, on the other hand, rightly acknowledge and ascertain that no class in Germany took part in this four-year long conflict with such an enormous sacrifice of blood and death as the aristocracy and declare that the best of us have fallen.
In the political leadership of the German nation in the pre-war and war years the aristocracy did not live up to its duties. The aristocracy and the people no longer understood each other. The aristocracy no longer spoke the language of the people and thus it failed, detached and separated from the people, both in internal and in external politics. In the foreign policy of that time, which was especially strongly influenced by the aristocracy and unfortunately also by Jewry, there was no politician or statesman who rose even a little above the average level. After the enormous blood sacrifice of the international conflict, the aristocracy seemed to have exhausted its last strength, which had been kindled in its old families even during the war. Only a few of us confronted the mutineers of 1918 vigorously. The throne and altar were abandoned, the Kaiser empire crumbled, and with it the aristocracy.
The history of the revolution is at the same time the history of the collapse and disintegration of the German aristocracy. The heroes of yesterday, the pillars of support of throne and altar, soon became spineless servants of a state that could be created only after the strongest supports of this state had bowed down before traitors and mutineers. When the red flags of the revolt fluttered and the mobs raged in the streets, they of course complained and protested but they forgot to fight, and found the required justifications for everything that they did and were not sparing in declarations dripping with patriotism. The majority of the aristocracy accepted the situation as it was. The majority of the aristocracy came to terms with the Weimar Republic. For the majority of the aristocracy and especially for the older generation it was still only a matter of a lesser evil that one had to put up with, in order not to lose everything. On major patriotic festival days the uniforms of the old regiment were brought out now and then to keep up tradition, one gave pleasant speeches at war associations and expressed the hope that God would indeed grant us better times once again. None of us wanted battle itself. Indeed it was much more convenient to be promised peace and order from the Weimar Republic and, for that reason, to change one’s attitude a little. It is worth mentioning that, in this period, Jewish families with and without noble surnames played the principal role in the aristocracy. Everything pressed round the golden calf and one was able to note, for example, with trembling fear, in Berlin society in the years 1924–1925, that degenerate aristocrats were tolerated guests in rich Jewish families, that all the so-called good houses were open to a notorious criminal like, for example, the Jewish state secretary Weismann. In general, one who disseminated propaganda for the ‘Realpolitik’ of the ‘statesman’ Gustav Stresemann, eulogising with many fine speeches in cities and the state, was valued as a specially intelligent aristocratic comrade. One put up with everything, even the worst phenomena of the time, and even the German aristocratic association, as a socio-economic organisation of the aristocracy, was in no way directive but satisfied itself merely with transferring external forms of the past to the republican present.
The aristocracy organised itself after 1918 chiefly in the German National People’s Party and the Stahlhelm and, in the battle years, both groups virtuously did everything that was in their power to make life bitter for us few National Socialists from the aristocracy and to mock and denigrate us and our battle for the German nation. The first great election assembly will always remain in my mind in which I was to appear in Halle for the first time in my life, in 1924, as a speaker for the National Socialist Freedom Party. In front of an overflowing assembly that absorbed with enthusiasm the programmatic representation of the National Socialist battle goals there spoke, after me, as a respondent, the party secretary of the German National People’s Party, and also the Stahlhelm leader in Halle, Senior Lieutenant Düsterberg, and a war-blinded Communist. While the performances of the latter were completely moderate, Mr. Düsterberg, who, as is well-known, is Jewish, used the opportunity to oppose the young freedom movement in the harshest way. Even at that time I was amazed by the blind hatred that filled this man but did not know that the formerly active officer of the military staff was Jewish.
Therewith I come to the saddest chapter in the history of the German aristocracy of the present. We stand before the shocking fact that that part of the population that, according to blood, race and a centuries-long tradition, was called and, as we believe, is still called to present to its people statesmen and soldierly fighters in the great freedom fight that the National Socialist movement had conducted for 14 years stood aside without any understanding of the great changes that had occurred in the German national soul, retreated into a completely misunderstood aristocracy and, often not without justification, invited upon itself the hatred and the contempt of large masses of the people.
The aristocracy took part only to an extremely small degree in the powerful battle within the country under the leadership of Adolf Hitler. It must indeed be said clearly that the aristocracy, and especially the post-war generation, succumbed frightfully quickly to the influences of liberalism and democracy. The smaller part of it encapsulated itself in the seclusion of conservative or nationalist clubs and in professional associations conducted in a parliamentary political manner. The German national Stahlhelm leaders in the aristocracy laughed at us ‘reckless and immature young people’ when we stated clearly in public that we love our German people and hate its enemies. They thought it was not ‘chic’ to get into close discussions in national assemblies with KPD and Reichsbanner people. If we fought in national assemblies and in the street with fellow Germans filled with hatred they spoke of us as hooligan elements that had unfortunately not learnt to behave according to their ‘class’.
Even if one accepts and understands — for the reasons that I have presented at the beginning of this essay — that the aristocracy in 1918 did not oppose any decisive resistance to Ebert, Scheidemann and Noske with their mutineering hordes, the meagre participation of the aristocracy in the political battle of Adolf Hitler will always remain incomprehensible. It cannot be explained or excused by anything that a class that presented to the people through the centuries leaders, and not the worst, refused adherence to the man who set about, after the collapse of the old leadership in Germany, to educate new young leaders, who however demanded even from these young leaders that they had to prove their suitability and set for each of us strong endurance tests before the title ‘leader’ was granted to us.
After the aristocracy had been unable through its own strength to change the fate of its people, we must, in retrospect, regretfully state that, even in the last part of the development of German history, which stood under the sign of victorious National Socialism, it did not understand to put a stop to its inner disintegration and cooperate in the new formation of affairs with all its forces. This failure of a valuable and, insofar as it is a question of the landed aristocracy, racially superior and healthy section of the population, is so much more regretful in that the National Socialist movement built and conducted on aristocratic principles had to correspond completely to the inner constitution of the aristocracy. Just as among the ancient Germans the best person in terms of family, clan and tribe was the heir-apparent and became the leader, so also in the National Socialist movement the best person in terms of performance and blood is the leader. People may say of the aristocracy that it is in the process of committing serious mistakes that can never be remedied, both to itself and to coming generations. There is no doubt there is forming in National Socialism a new ruling class of the German nation. If the aristocracy stands aside from this great aristocratic national movement, destiny will pass over it and then it would be better if it decided to discard its aristocratic titles which have becomes worthless.
The aristocracy stands at the turning point of its history. It is up to it to demonstrate, through its conduct in relation to National Socialism, that race and blood can overcome darkness and class conflict. If the aristocratic principle of the NSDAP according to which only one who fulfills special duties may claim special rights for himself penetrates the aristocracy of today, and if the aristocracy incorporates itself wholly and unconditionally in the great national community of Adolf Hitler, then the possibility will be offered to it even today of recovering its position in the German nation which has been strongly shaken by the events of the last 14 years. And then the proudest privilege of the aristocracy will remain that of offering its sons to the fatherland.
