This pale yellow, young miso is made from fermented soybeans and white rice. The taste is sweet and slightly mild, because the fermentation only takes two to six weeks. Despite the short fermentation period, you can still taste the umami. This shiro miso is delicious in snack processing and goes well with ginger and root vegetables.

SHIELD “1 Team 1 Nation” : Integrated Campaign
MAKE EVERY GAME FEEL LIKE A HOME GAME
As team sponsor, connect the 2015 Rugby World Cup Springbok squad with their fans and supporters at home.
We gave Springbok fans who couldn’t afford to travel overseas and watch their beloved team from the stadium a way to share their support and encouragement with the players. When the Springboks play at home they can hear their fans in the stadium. We made sure they felt them a continent away. Anyone could use our USSD line to send a message directly to the Springboks. Messages were printed and hung in their change room. Fans were rewarded for participation through spot prize giveaways and competitions.
The campaign hashtag #1Team1Nation was adopted by the country for the duration of the tournament.
Over 800 000 messages of support were received.

Top Hat Replacing TurningPoint
Starting on August, 2018, TurningPoint will no longer be supported by ITS and will be removed from ILE classrooms. Top Hat will be the only supported classroom response (clicker) system at the University of Missouri-Kansas City.
Top Hat is a clicker application and comprehensive teaching platform that allows instructors to present interactive slides, quizzes, polls, and more in physical or virtual classrooms. Students can use smartphones, tablets, laptops, and ordinary cell phones to respond to questions and polls. Canvas integration is available for grade book synchronization.
Visit the Top Hat support website for more information including pedagogical considerations, instructor/student quick start guide, and Canvas integration instructions.
Integration Moving to Canvas
The gradebook integration for Top Hat will be moved from Blackboard to Canvas for FS2018. Instructors will not be able to link BlackBoard courses with Top Hat after that. If you teach with Blackboard in the fall semester and wish to use Top Hat, contact Jing Zou to discuss possible solutions.
New Top Hat user or interested instructors, may contact Jay Meloff for a demo as well as for training on how to navigate Top Hat.
Already using Top Hat and need a refresh? You may view the 20-minute recorded training tutorial: Intro to Top Hat training. If you prefer a live training session, there are 45-minute workshops held on a weekly basis. | <urn:uuid:1045c5fa-a5ca-4f76-9ee6-413b65e2cf27> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://online.umkc.edu/top-hat-transition/ | 2022-09-28T15:58:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030335257.60/warc/CC-MAIN-20220928145118-20220928175118-00676.warc.gz | en | 0.877162 | 296 | [

It should really not be any surprise to any of you when I say I love taking photos. I mean heck, You’ve seen my Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin..the list goes on. There’s always an image I’m sharing and telling a story about. For as long as I can remember I’ve been obsessed with documenting my life. From high school days, concerts, hockey games, regular nights at friends houses & now more seriously since I started traveling. I love being able to capture the moments I experience to share with all of you, and to create a memory I can look back in print. So when Lindsey mentioned she had found a cool walking tour for our trip to Paris I was curious, I mean I can take my own walking tour in any city I go to with my camera in hand. The difference with this one? Swap out your phone or DSLR for a Polaroid! Yep, a polaroid camera!
I’ve shot with point & shoot cameras, DSLR cameras, disposable cameras, even film cameras (unsuccessfully I can add) but I’ve actually never had the chance to use a polaroid camera. So it was a quick “where do we sign up?!” from me & we had ourselves a tour scheduled with Paris Polaroid Tours. Founded in the summer of 2015, Paris Polaroid Tours is owned and operated by Steph and her team of Parisian photographers with a love for their city & a passion for showing off it’s best sides all the while providing you with back stories to the locations you’ll be shooting. Post tour I asked Steph what made her want to start this kind of tour and her reply was too good not to share, “Working as the marketing manager for We Love Pola (a Paris based company which sells and hires Polaroid cameras) for several years, I wanted to project my background in Cultural Tourism into the limelight. I wished to combine my skills in tourism marketing and management, my love for Paris and my passion for instant photography together to create an original concept”. Wanting to engage travellers, and not just drag them from one iconic monument to the next she came up with this fantastic company and has been welcoming travellers & photographers alike from North America, Australia, and The UK for the last few years. Believing entirely in the way photography tells a story, she definitely has created an opportunity for people to try their hands at polaroids and take home a few souvenirs for their memory wall too. #MakeParisYours is the # Paris Polaroid Tours uses and it couldn't be more true, their selection of tours will give you the opportunity to see Paris with a new set of eyes making it your own.
We met up with Steph, the owner & founder of Paris Polaroid Tours on Ile de la Cité, the island that houses Notre Dame, early on our last full day ready to get our hands on those cameras! Paris Polaroid Tours provides each person with a camera as well as a set of film to produce 10 photos that you’ll be able to take home with you at the end of the tour. From here she gave us a quick run down of the cameras functions and we set off on our Classic Paris Tour (there are 2 other options, which you can find here. Our first stop - Notre Dame of course! Taking in the absolutely incredible detail of this 12th century Gothic Cathedral is something best done slowly and from every angle. We were given a few tips at this point to make the best of our first photo subject and from here we walked North towards Pont Notre Dame & Pont Neuf letting Steph give us a serious history lesson about the landmarks and what the city looked like pre and post revolution.
We visited the infamous “love lock” bridge, which has now been cleared because the locks cause the bridge structure to sag (danger < love right?) but people have now taken up to leaving locks on another bridge nearby. From here we strolled alone the Seine towards the Louvre, and Place du Carousel taking in some more unique views other than the Glass Pyramid and finished up our tour at Place de la Concorde with views of the Eiffel Tower, Des Champs-Élysées & surrounded by some absolutely stunning fountains.
Although Lindsey and I had visited some of these locations earlier on in the week, being able to see them while learning exactly what they were built for or the historical facts behind them gave us a new appreciation for them and we were able to see them a little differently especially with the polaroid in our hands. Our 2 hour tour with Steph quickly turned into 3 as we made stops at While walking around we had been snapping photos of the landmarks we were learning about, and although the photo prints instantly when you click the shutter it does take several minutes for the images to actually form on the film so we put them in our pockets and continued on. It wasn’t until we got to the end of the walking tour that we finally got a look at our finished prints. Holding those moments we’d snapped on our hands definitely made the tour so much more special knowing we’d be able to take them home.
If you’re looking for a unique experience to make the most out of your visit to Paris I definitely suggest getting in tough with Steph and the Paris Polaroid team, and if you haven’t tried your hand at Polaroids before, I can assure you that after this you’ll go home & start pricing your own polaroid camera (or at least that’s what I did, Merry Christmas to me?). Un gros merci a Steph pour un matin magnifique!

Once again, no one can help you if you do not describe the problem. I
suggest that you post your Code Composer .pjt file, and describe the errors
or include a log. Are you having problems building Speex, or just running
I am now working with Speex on the 64x, 54x and 55x simulators (I will have
a post about this shortly, there is some problem with Speex 1.1.8 and the
54x/55x). The build was straightforward on the 64x, and I would expect the
6711 would not give much trouble. Of course, all of my tests have been with
the fixed point build, and the 6711 is a floating point part, I believe.
You can try building with and without the FIXED_POINT option. The DSP has
plenty of power to run Speex either way.

RAPID CITY, SD (March 31, 2022) – Today, the Family Heritage Alliance (FHA) Action released its scorecard for the 2022 Legislative Session. The FHA Action scorecard gives a snapshot of where South Dakota legislators stand on issues impacting the family. Members of the House of Representatives were scored on 14 bills, while members of the Senate were scored on 13 bills.
The scorecard can be found HERE.
Norman Woods, Director of FHA Action, outlined the importance of these scores:
“Every year, we hold lawmakers accountable to South Dakota voters by highlighting the lawmakers who stood strong for family values and those who didn’t. The purpose of our scorecard is to hold lawmakers’ feet to the fire, uncovering their voting records on cultural issues so that South Dakotans are fully informed when they go to the voting booth.“
FHA Action encourages citizens to study the scorecard and use the information in discussions with their legislators. The elected leaders who stood up for family values deserve our support. | <urn:uuid:bebe5177-f07b-4e74-87b4-2ea3ecdf9894> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://fhaaction.org/2022-legislative-scorecard/ | 2022-10-01T08:07:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030335573.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20221001070422-20221001100422-00676.warc.gz | en | 0.943394 | 215 | [

The case of Eric Garner is gaining new legs after news surfaced that the U.S. Department of Justice will reportedly file charges against the officer that applied the fatal chokehold on the Staten Island man. Daniel Pantaleo, the NYPD officer in question, will face yet unknown charges in the death of Garner which has caused some New York investigators to bristle at the federal involvement.
The New York Post reports that Washington-based DOJ prosecutors took over the investigation and usurped the Brooklyn team looking into the matter. Sources tell NYP that they believe an indictment against Pantaleo is coming soon and that the DOJ is looking to make an example out of the officer.
Pantaleo has denied publicly that he choked Garner to death and was given modified desk duty to the tune of earning $105,061 in 2015. Insiders close to the case are furious that the feds are going after Pantaleo despite the glaring evidence that supports the fact he did indeed apply the chokehold deadly maneuver that ended Garner’s life.

Prodos Games has just announced it’s August releases for their Aliens vs. Predator – The Hunt Begins miniature game. Next month we’ll be seeing a unicast release of the Praetorian, a unit they’ve previously released in multi-part. Also due for release next month is a new leader unit for the Alien faction, the Evolved Warriors!
As a xenomorph hive grows in size, on occasion, a Warrior will mutate into a unique type of its own. Highly adaptable, these creatures are often mistaken for a standard Warrior until it is too late for their enemies. Some of them are able to spray acid at close range onto multiple enemies at once, others can camouflage their exoskeleton to blend into their surroundings to leap upon their foes, and some of them are even able to heal the most grievous of wounds almost instantly.
Both expansions are due for release on the 14th of August and are currently available for pre-order. All pre-orders will also come with an awesome looking Specimen 6 miniature, based on the Alien you play as in Rebellion’s Aliens vs. Predator (2010)!

Hummus is truly one of my favorite go-to spreads for snacking. I love it on English muffins, crackers, for dipping veggies and more. I suppose I am a bit of a hummus snob, but I don’t always have time to make it from scratch. If a grocery store hummus measures up to my standards, it’s got to be amazing!
Well, I have struck hummus gold with Heluva Good! Hummus. Sure, the folks have sponsored this post, but I would not brag about this hummus if I did not truly find it to be delicious. My husband can attest to my euphorically eye-rolling expression when I took my first bite of Heluva Good! Hummus. Yup, it’s that good!
Heluva Good! Hummus comes in 3 delicious flavors.
Pair this classic with your favorite pita chips for the ultimate snacking experience.
Roasted Red Pepper
Bursting with red pepper taste, this hummus is the perfect complement to your favorite veggies.
Featuring the zesty heat of Heluva Good!’s well known horseradish, this hummus is sure to spice up your dipping experience. (Unfortunately, I could not find this one near me, but I am keeping a look out to try it in person soon!)
My daughter and I decided to get creative with our Heluva Good! Hummus presentation after being inspired by something we saw on Pinterest. I find that my kids are more likely to try something new when it’s presented in a fun way. Isn’t this flower scene cute?

I can relate to the position that Los Angeles Rams MLB Alec Ogletree has been put in. This time last year, he was looking to establish himself as a premier 'Will' LB in Gregg Williams' defense. Now? He's being looked upon to lead the defense. That can be an extremely difficult transition to make, especially when you consider that Ogletree was a safety that converted to linebacker at the University of Georgia.
To his credit, 'Tree is excited about the transition and is embracing the challenge. Gregg Williams has said that he's 'created a monster' and - given his past - that is quite the statement. Ogletree has all the athleticism you could ever want in a MLB. If he can harness that athleticism while handling the pre-snap requirements of the 'Mike' backer, the Rams D could go places in 2016.
Making the jump from WLB to MLB is no small feat. Middle linebackers aren't called the QB of the defense for nothing. They are required to know the playbook back and front, make all necessary pre-snap adjustments, and relay a ton of information from the defensive coaching staff to the field. The mental adjustment will be crucial if Ogletree and the Rams D are going to have a successful season.
'Tree will have to stay in his lane as well. At his best, he's an instinctual player. He reads then reacts and makes a play. After playing his first three seasons at OLB, can he play that way at MLB? Or will he be a step behind as he 'thinks' through a play instead of reacting. Getting into - and staying in - the mindset of a MLB will be of the utmost importance.
Stats are somewhat secondary in this situation, but if I had to project out I'd say that leading the Rams in tackles is a must. Toss in a couple turnovers and sacks and you have a Pro-Bowl level season on your hands.
Chances of Making the Roster (10/10)
Ogletree is the centerpiece of the Rams D moving forward. He's right there next to Aaron Donald, Trumaine Johnson, and recently PAID Mark Barron. He's going to be on the team. | <urn:uuid:ee8ee0b8-913d-4581-91a7-c14362efd5da> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://www.turfshowtimes.com/2016/7/29/12319008/2016-los-angeles-rams-roster-preview-depth-chart-alec-ogletree | 2022-10-04T01:37:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337446.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20221003231906-20221004021906-00676.warc.gz | en | 0.978352 | 467 | [

We had a long, tough day yesterday, but can absolutely *feel* all the Love, Light and Warmth being sent through the ether by you all ♥
To get to the quick, Dad is still on a respirator and his basic vitals are still solid without any type of drug-assist. He's unresponsive though, and yesterday's CT scan showed massive damage to core parts of his brain...
He looks surprisingly well and seems years younger somehow. The nurses were totally surprised to hear how old he was, and one actually told us yesterday that the night shift had been remarking about his strong physique and how handsome he was, and Addy and I were like, typical Dad! He's in a coma and the ladies are still flocking around him:)
Those nurses and his doctors have been So gentle and generous and caring, so respectful of all their patients (there've been four to five in the ICU this week) and so professional that it absolutely hasn't felt at all traumatic going to sit with Dad, and hold his hand, and talk with him.
One nurse in particular shared a secret with me yesterday evening while she was giving Dad a beauty treatment. She was asked me questions like "Is he ok with having a beard or should we shave him?" all the while letting him politely know what she was going to doing next. I asked her how she ended up being an ICU nurse, and she told me that twenty years earlier, it had been her laying in this same room in a coma after a bad car accident. She'd been taken care of so gently and well, that after she recovered she'd felt compelled to dedicate her life to helping patients like herself, and like Dad. She was kind of whispering, and let me know that this wasn't general knowledge among her colleagues.
I felt a bit overwhelmed by her story, by the beauty and simplicity of it. She told me that even in the deepest days of her coma, on a respirator and such, she'd heard what was said around her, and sensed things. Not everything, not every word, but enough. And so it became all-important for her to be with ICU patients and show them the respect they deserve, and to talk with them, to say things like, "Ok Þórir, now I'm going to shine a light in your eye...and now your other eye." There was nothing woowoo about it...she knew that even in the most dire situations, it might very well be that a patient was experiencing, on some level we can't understand, the environment around them, and that it was of utmost importance to provide them comfort in their otherwise helpless state ♥
I'm pretty sure I can speak for Addy and Mom when I say that spending time with the families of other ICU patients in the communal sitting room has been amazing. When your loved one is first admitted, and the nurses show you to the room to wait for news, it's disconcerting to see people lying under blankets, resting, or munching on snack, or, in my case, noticing after an hour or so that some semi-washed up actor was on the tv, giving a passionate interview about hand-picking the fabrics in his new men's clothing line. It all seems so petty when there are lives on the line!
But then, after some time passes, you maybe begin a tentative chat about the room's rogue espresso machine, and you find out that maybe they'd been there at the hospital every day, all day, for a week, and that's why they were so settled in. You share the stories of your loved ones, and you show deep empathy for each others' situations, because at any given time there might be three or four families in there, waiting. By the third day you feel like you've known them for ages, and when they get called in to meetings with doctors you give them that hopeful look as they go out the room, silently wishing them the best possible news.
And when, as happened yesterday, a family finds out that their loved one won't make it through the day you hug them, and nod in support because you've talked together about things like DNR requests, organ donation, quality of life, and the kind of person their loved one was before the illness or accident that brought them there. You hug and you let them know that they're doing the right thing, that they can be confident that when their mother or sister or brother or father or adult child had told them, in one of those deep conversations that all families need to have about illness, death and dying, that they didn't want to live life hooked to machines, or incapacitated, or as a strain and drain on others, that they meant it. That now was the family's time to be heroic, to set aside any (in many ways) selfish desires to have their loved one their life forever, no matter what, and heed the request for a peaceful passing.
You may never see these people again, but you've shared sofas and cookies and stories with them, and have been lifted up, in your personal shock, by all the love energy that fills that comforting room. And when a new family comes in, in manic shock or heavy silence, hopeful and scared in turn, you smile and give them time to adjust to you on the sofa, under a blanket, eating snacks, seeming maybe callous or uncaring to them at first glance, but ready to teach them the ways of that damn espresso machine when they're ready for some chat. It's an endless chain of families supporting one another, some of whom nearly live there until their loved one's recovery or passing takes them away. It's beautiful and soulful and they're people you'll never forget...
Dad's maybe not a very visibly religious man, but he's very very Spiritual, and highly in tune with the esoteric aspects of life. Many many times, more than I can recount, he knew that Addy or Mom or I, or one of his grandchildren, needed him. And he always dropped everything and heeded that feeling, calling at just the right moment, or coming by, to the rescue as it were. I know with every cell in my body that he's being bathed in your Light and Love, and that he knows it ♥ I've heard from a few dear souls that they've felt his presence Very strongly in the past days, as if he's visiting them, maybe giving a message, or saying goodbye...
Because he is leaving us, this we know now for sure. There's no turning back from the trauma his brain has experienced in core regions, the parts that control all the vital functions of the human life experience, of living well. He's so otherwise bodily fit, though, that his desire to donate his organs will be easily fulfilled, and in that way he'll save lives, and physically leave us as the Hero he's always been to so many.
He will never, though, be completely gone. This I guarantee. Like I told my ten year old son Óðinn, who Dad has been a father figure to, and has helped raise in so many ways: all you'll have to do is ask for his help, and he´ll be there for you. Speak to him, and he'll be listening. Share his stories and he'll live on through you, down the generations, becoming more mythic with each telling, as it should be when remembering the life of a great man.
Endless thanks for your support and concern and well-wishes. Addy and Mom are going to the hospital in a few minutes, and we will continue to stay by his side until his final transition.
He's led SUCH an amazing life, and I encourage you all to keep remembering the tales and jokes he told (remember the one about the cat who ran out of gas? hahaha:) and the adventures you shared with him, and his great big Aura and all that energy he's given to us all. Up to his last days he rose to any and all challenges put in front of him, and lived life to the full!
He always told me he wanted a Wake and not a dour Funeral, and though we may all be greatly saddened right now, I personally want to honor his request to be remembered with smiles and laughter, bittersweet as it may be. Addy, Mom, Valentína, Óðinn and I are coping well, especially with the strength being sent our way. And I understand that Dan, Jacob and Mekkin are booking flights from California as we speak - it will be very good to have them all with us ♥ Bless you all for your support!
Peace and Love to you all,
This is the original announcement that Addy and I posted on Wednesday, August 25th in the closed Fb group that we started:
Hi everyone ♥
As many of you know, and many don't, Dad took a very serious fall from the stairs in their apartment on Tuesday evening : (((
He's in ICU / gjörgæsla now, and has been since he was brought in. He experienced heavy brain trauma, with two subdural hematomas, one in his cerebellum, plus a skull fracture, and what is basically a broken neck, again;((
He lost consciousness on impact, or was possibly having another stroke while getting down the stairs and was unconscious during the fall itself. We have no way of knowing. He hasn't regained consciousness since.
The surgeon who took care of Dad on Tuesday told us today that Dad's vitals are stable, which is great. He's off the Fentonyl (the "induced coma" drug) and also off the Propocol (the painkiller) but he's still intubated (has a breathing tube). After the weekend the surgeon and the wonderful nurses and other doctors will take stock of the situation and reassess where to go from here.
I know this is shocking news, and hard to take in. I'm sorry for being so straightforward in this post, but I know that it's important to understand the situation so that we know what to pray for!
Right now, Dad needs lots of Light and Love, and needs us all to focus on our Very Best Memories of him, especially the daring, funny, adventurous, caring and endearing ones. If we all send Golden Light to him, we can do our part to assure that he isn't suffering, and that, whatever the outcome, he'll be Enveloped in Love and Warm Care.
Addy flew in today, and was here with Mom and I holding Dad's hands, and noticing every little twitch his muscles made - they give us Hope! ♥
Mom is doing well, is exhausted emotionally, but is in Function Mode, taking care of practicalities, but also spending as much time here with her husband, who is also of course her best friend, as she can.
For now, it's time to call in the Energy Troops and send our Þórir/ Thor all the best orka we can ♥ ♥ ♥
That's all for right now...I'm at the hospital, running low on battery.
Please feel free to post pics or memories of the Thor you know here. Addy and I will do our best to answer questions.
As he's in ICU, he really can't have visitors besides immediate family. And though I know you all will want to call Mom, please give her a bit of a break to catch her breathe and absorb this new situation. She's not on Facebook, but Addy and I will show her this group so she can read your well wishes <3 And we won't leave her alone for more than even a few minutes, we promise!
Ok, now I've got hit "Post"

PRIME VIDEO: The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power‘s first two episodes arrive on Prime Video beginning Sept 1. And while it looks epic in scale, it isn’t based on a Tolkien novel. It’s a totally new creation. So I think the success of the series will be determined by how fans connect to the new characters, and their story arcs.
The official words….
“Beginning in a time of relative peace, the series follows an ensemble cast of characters, both familiar and new, as they confront the long-feared re-emergence of evil to Middle-earth. From the darkest depths of the Misty Mountains, to the majestic forests of the elf-capital of Lindon, to the breathtaking island kingdom of Númenor, to the furthest reaches of the map, these kingdoms and characters will carve out legacies that live on long after they are gone.” | <urn:uuid:8c006a49-886a-406f-be27-4c515883d52f> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | http://www.nerdreport.com/2022/08/23/final-trailer-the-lord-of-the-rings-rings-of-power/ | 2022-10-06T16:16:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337853.66/warc/CC-MAIN-20221006155805-20221006185805-00676.warc.gz | en | 0.929875 | 193 | [

LONDON – As the aviation industry enters a new phase after 3 years of Covid-19 hibernation, the general consensus of the industry is a shift to sustainable energy and more consciousness of environmental impact.
The increase in environmental awareness has allowed companies like General Electric to innovate on their powertrain product to be more green and efficient.
Airbus and CFM International have declared a 50-50 joint venture between General Electric and Safran Aircraft Engines. Earlier this year in February, the two firms announced they would work together on an engine using hydrogen propulsion.
At the 2022 Farnborough Airshow, Airbus announced it would be advocating for CFM in participating in the RISE (Revolutionary Innovation for Sustainable Engines) programme which was introduced in 2021.
This environmentally conscious drive aims to push cutting-edge technology to better serve the development of newer generation CFM engines that will consume 20% less fuel and create 20% fewer emissions than most power trains in any commercial aircraft jet engines available in the market today.
These ‘newer’ CFM turbofan engines are expected to be inducted into the market mid-2030s. In the second half of this decade, GE will partner with Airbus to carry out flight tests on the new engines, using the Airbus A380 as a test bed, to use as a demonstrator programme.
In fact, companies of Airbus, CFM, GE and Safran are members of the Air Transport Action Group, which fully shows the commitment to achieving net-zero carbon emission in the industry by 2050.
Gaël Méheust stated with enthusiasm: “We have a vision and commitment to help the industry achieve its net-zero goals, and the open-fan flight test demonstration program is an exciting step toward achieving that.”
CFM open-fan architecture
The fan in front of the power train is ‘open’ because, unlike any other conventional turbofan engine, it is not covered by a shell or a case, which inevitably shaves off excess weight. This permits the engineers to enlarge the fans which allow for better propulsion, from higher volumes of air particles gathering around the fans rather than within the core.
The volume differences are called the bypass ratio, which is a crucial mechanical term in describing power train efficiency. CFM engines have gradually grown their bypass ratio over time from 5:10 in the 80s, to the LEAP engine, with a ratio of 11:1.
An open fan system could technically reach a ratio of 70:1, which means a 20% reduction in fuel consumption and emissions emitted compared to conventional engines.
Bypass ratio: The volume of air passing around the engine core vs. the volume of air passing through the core.
It looks like Hybrid electric engines and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) could aid deeper emissions and fuel cuts. GE has been proactively seeking to develop cleaner and more efficient products since the launch of its first CFM58 engines in the early 80s.
Since then, its team of talented engineers have never stopped working to reduce fuel consumption and Carbon emissions.
The Airbus A380 has been selected to be the test bed, and it looks like this is a new role for the aircraft, much like so the Boeing 747, being a guinea pig for major avionics and engine companies. | <urn:uuid:0d11f1cd-0e2e-4779-bb6a-6f537df3583b> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://aviationsourcenews.com/news/airbus-a380-to-test-cfms-open-fan-in-flight/ | 2022-10-06T17:12:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337853.66/warc/CC-MAIN-20221006155805-20221006185805-00676.warc.gz | en | 0.952885 | 681 | [

I have those nights. Ones where I wake up – wide awake. So comfortable, don’t want to move – but now the brain starts going.
I try to remember to ask: “Who do you want me to pray for Lord?” – but sometimes even when I remember and pray – sleep is illusive. Get up, stay put, get more comfortable, maybe just a drink of water?
It’s quiet then. I tiptoe out and pat the cat’s head. All alone with my thoughts and yawns. No lights. That’s when I can hear – myself and my wonderings, the quirks of our aging home, and the prompting. The Holy Spirit nudging me to consider things anew in the dim light. “And because we are His children, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, prompting us to call out, “Abba, Father.” (Galatians 4:6 NLT)
Here’s the deal – I don’t always get answers. Sometimes I don’t even know the questions. I’m learning the best way to spend wide awake time in the wee hours is in the quiet with Jesus.
Sure, my mind wanders off in all kinds of directions. But even a little heartfelt prayer here and there points me in directions I wasn’t aware I needed to go. We wander off God’s path all too easily, maybe 3am is for finding our way back.
“We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.” (Romans 8:26b NIV)
Then again, maybe this wee hours time is for the friend we heard is getting divorced, the loved one who is making bad decisions, even a call to pray for our nation or a situation that seems out-of-control or hopeless.
Sleepy me hopes there aren’t too many of these 3am times. When there are, maybe I should learn to cherish them instead of worry about my lack of sleep – or worry about anything for that matter. After all, one thing is for sure: eight hours of sleep or five, God has it all figured out. He’s teaching me listen for Him when I can hear best.

St. Louis, the Airport, and Everything You Need to Know
If you travel regularly for business, you know the unique struggle that is making through the airport. From long lines at security to finding reliable transportation from the airport to your hotel once your plane lands, airports can pose a ton of frustrations to the corporate traveler and make an already-pressed schedule even tighter.
Maybe you have a business trip on the schedule for St. Louis in the coming months. If so, count yourself lucky: not only is St. Louis one of the most dynamic and welcoming cities in the country, it provides a warm welcome to corporate travelers. Get familiar with St. Louis before you go with this video, which showcases some of the city’s best destinations.
If you’re excited about your trip, but are worried about the airport experience, have no fear. We’ve covered a few of the basics about STL car service, dining, and what you’ll need to know when your plane lands.
Your Transportation After You Land
Like most airports, STL has shuttle services that help transports patrons who have utilized long and short-term parking and a rail system to help you get from one terminal to the other within the airport.
If you’re like most business travelers, however, you won’t be using their parking services when you arrive back at the airport to catch a flight back home and that means you’ll need an effective and reliable means of transportation to get to STL when your business trip concludes.
That’s why booking chauffeured STL car service is the most reliable, effective choice for corporate travelers visiting St. Louis. You’ll have a local expert in your chauffeur who will be able to recommend local restaurants, hotels and hotspots, in case you need a night out or a place to make a splash with client. You won’t need to worry about the difficulty of navigating your way through an unfamiliar city, or whether you’ll be late to any of your appointments. Instead of waiting at the Rental Car Counter, you’ll be on the road just minutes after your flight lands.
STL car service also eliminates the headaches of driving yourself in a new city, and you’ll never have to worry about being late or struggling to find parking. Your STL car service chauffeur will drop you off right at the doors of your destination and be back to pick you up when you alert him or her.
Dining and Shopping at STL
Another thing that corporate travelers face in the airport world is flight delays. Especially with the uncharacteristic winter weather that has plagued the majority of the country this season, flight delays are always a possibility, but you don’t want to be stranded at STL with no idea where to find food or essential items when you need them.
Luckily, STL has plenty of options for dining and shopping should you find yourself with a delay or a special need during your time there.
If you’re dining in Terminal 1, there are restaurants like Brioche Doree, The Local and Grounded in St. Louis.
Terminal 2 includes eateries like California Pizza Kitchen, Great American Bagel, and Eighteen-76.
When it comes to shopping at STL, you have options in Terminal 2 that include CNN Newstand, Bookmark In Motion, and Discover St. Louis.
Although corporate travel can stressful, your trip to St. Louis can be well-planned out and enjoyable with the right amount of research. Book your STL car service, know the airport and make the most of your corporate visit to St. Louis.

On this image, I’m measuring the spectrum and depth of the sunshine in a room the place my firm, Ekonoke, is rising hops hydroponically. At our services, close to Madrid, we have now three rooms geared up with sensors that management lighting, temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide ranges and photosynthesis, amongst different elements. As soon as every week, I manually test the sensors to ensure that plant progress and density are heading in the right direction.
Ekonoke’s sensors additionally alert us to any issues — similar to a leak within the irrigation system — earlier than they have an effect on the crops.
Hops, the flower of the plant Humulus lupulus, are what provides beer its distinctive flavour. Rising them hydroponically means utilizing a minimal quantity of substrate for the roots. We additionally use a recirculating irrigation system that recycles many of the water we use to develop the crops.
I studied ecological agriculture at Wageningen College & Analysis within the Netherlands and, in 2016, launched Ekonoke with growth advisor Inés Sagrario. We grew leafy greens that we offered on to prospects. In 2020, we have been joined by folks with expertise in producing microgreens, and collectively we began testing indoor hydroponic hops.
This crop is in excessive demand worldwide however its high quality and amount are strongly affected by local weather and different variants. Right here, in our managed indoor system, we are able to obtain 4 yields a 12 months as a substitute of 1 — and with out utilizing pesticides.
This 12 months, we’ll transfer to a brand new indoor website of 1,000 sq. metres in Galicia, within the north of Spain, to start out producing at business scale. We’re establishing this facility in partnership with Hijos de Rivera, the Spanish firm that launched the beer Estrella Galicia greater than 100 years in the past.
Our collaboration’s first fruit — ‘Respect!’, a restricted version of a beer produced solely with our hydroponically grown Humulus — got here out in July. It’s the world’s first beer to be made completely with indoor hops. | <urn:uuid:111a6cfc-ee48-4b3e-9ba5-41f4a5bf41e9> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://suadicapratica.com/cheers-to-the-primary-beer-made-solely-from-indoor-hops/ | 2022-09-26T05:35:12Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030334802.16/warc/CC-MAIN-20220926051040-20220926081040-00076.warc.gz | en | 0.932576 | 459 | [

Monitoring all user activity on a PC or Mac 24/7 results in a massive amount of data and screenshot evidence. Sifting through the data is sometimes necessary, but using “keywords” that alert you as soon as a suspicious activity takes place is crucial. Alerts not only eliminates investigators overlooking an important piece of evidence, but they also lets you take action quickly to stop fraudulent transactions or to protect valuable data from being moved off of your network.
Keywords should be specific to your company and the individual being investigated, (e.g. AcmeTopSecret.XLS or server04\creditcardmaster). Additionally, predefined keyword lists can also be imported, covering more universal topics of investigation (e.g. bullying, sexual harassment, fraud, theft etc.). The FBI in conjunction with Ernst & Young created a 3,000 word keyword list around fraud. Some of the top keyword phrases used by employees in email communications with coconspirators include: | <urn:uuid:7d1f3028-e389-4b66-a4a3-369cdcc765ce> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://www.veriato.com/solutions/use-case/forensic-investigations | 2022-09-26T06:16:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030334802.16/warc/CC-MAIN-20220926051040-20220926081040-00076.warc.gz | en | 0.906765 | 198 | [

When shopping around for a good solid mailbox, you might have no idea what exactly you need. A mailbox isn’t something that you get or look for frequently, therefore you may not know about the choices and options out there. Lots of things have evolved over the years! How can you be aware of exactly the type of mailbox you will need?
Keep in mind that each mailbox in the USA must be authorized by the United States Postal Service (USPS) to be able to receive mail. In the event that you purchase an unapproved mailbox, you risk the USPS halting all delivery services to your work or home. Believe me, it happened to me when a company set up unapproved mailboxes at my humble abode.
I went 8 weeks without getting any packages or any mail. Not having mails delivered was a major disruption in various areas of my day-to-day lifestyle. Don’t allow this happen to your family or you, be sure you are shopping for products which have the USPS Postmaster General’s seal of approval. Second of all, have you got a home owner’s association (HOA) in your community or neighborhood?
If you do, you should talk to them just before purchasing a mailbox. Most condo communities, apartment complexes and HOAs have stringent rules about the design/style and construction of all mailboxes locally. If you don’t verify with them initially, and abide by their regulations, you risk getting fined, or also have your home removed. Don’t purchase a new mailbox until you are sure it really is right!
This point might appear obvious — for people who have a wall-mounted mailbox, just buy a wall-mounted mailbox. For those who have a curb-side mailbox, just purchase a curb-side mailbox. Many postal areas are extremely specific in the way the carrier is permitted to deliver.
In case you are in a community where in fact the postal carrier brings mail in a car, you need to continue to make use of a curb-side mailbox. Now the carrier won’t leave the car to walk to your entrance door in delivering the mail right into a wall mounted mailbox.
If you need a curb-side mailbox, have a close, good look at everything you have there already. Maybe the post is in poor shape, although the mailbox itself appears alright? Maybe the mailbox is crushed, however the post looks pristine?
With curb-side mailboxes, you can purchase each part individually, which is quite convenient for most reasons. Only if one component of your mailbox requires changing, you can purchase that part.
Mailbox deals can be found which have the post and the container, for a whole new look. In the event that you see a bundle and do not like one component, you can purchase each piece individually to get the precise style and design you would prefer.
If you want a wall mounted mailbox, look properly at what components either will not and will do the job. A beautiful, hand-produced wooden, incomplete mailbox shouldn’t be used in a location that is not secured by the elements, such as for example, an ‘open up’ porch or a location without overhang.
If the mailbox comes in contact with the weather elements or so, you should search for materials that won’t stain, rust or weather. Examine the product descriptions carefully before you agree to buy. You want your brand-new mailbox to last for years, not only for one season.
Is mail security a concern for you? If it is, you should think about locking mailboxes. If you are considering that a locking mailbox won’t be nice, you’re wrong!
Since identity theft through mail is on the increase, manufacturers are producing nearly every design of mailboxes with a locking solution — from the classic to the modern, ultra-contemporary mailboxes. If you want extra security, have a look at a product just like the dVault or Mail Boss for the best security you can get.
Buying a new home mailbox doesn’t need to be a complicated process assuming you have some assistance. Stick to these important factors, and you’re sure to get the perfect mailbox to meet your requirements. | <urn:uuid:e76012fe-d75b-45fe-ac7a-30ae97b6214c> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://craftsnate.com/get-the-right-mailbox-for-your-home/ | 2022-09-30T07:20:03Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030335444.58/warc/CC-MAIN-20220930051717-20220930081717-00076.warc.gz | en | 0.951793 | 874 | [

Driving Success: Washington DOT Manages Traffic 24/7 Using Video Wall of NEC Displays
Expand a regional traffic management facility and upgrade its technologies
A new, high-tech environment that allows traffic management employees to monitor real-time video of traffic conditions and control area roadways
When a regional traffic management center in Washington state outgrew its building – as well as the size of its roadway monitoring system – the staff realized it was time not just for a physical upgrade, but a technological one, too.
The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) built its first traffic management center to monitor and control traffic in Seattle in the 1960s, adding others across the state over the decades, along with new detection devices and cameras as technology advanced.
One of those facilities, the Shoreline, Wash., traffic management center, eventually outgrew its building. To allow the center to further expand, WSDOT built a brand-new facility dedicated to traffic management next door to the old building.
With the larger building, WSDOT had the opportunity to upgrade the center’s technology offerings, and jumped at the chance.
“The traffic management center in the old building had about 40 monitors, and we were always trying to squeeze in more, for more camera views,” said Michael Forbis, ITS program manager for WSDOT.
WSDOT knew it wanted a video wall configuration on a larger scale than its previous facility, and looked at a few options, but the reality of a tight state budget shaped its choices.
“One option we looked at was a complete monolithic wall of projection cubes or flat-panel ultra-thin bezel displays,” Forbis said. “We had the funds to do it, but we were concerned about future maintenance costs. Sometimes companies can throw money in a savings pool for future repairs or upgrades, but the DOT is a state agency and can’t do that.”
This meant that as the displays in the monolithic wall inevitably needed replacement, WSDOT would have to find extra money in its budget to do so, or create an entire formal project to replace it instead of swapping out pieces as needed.
“We wanted a solution that we thought we could easily replace,” Forbis said.
For its operations room, WSDOT settled on a video wall comprising 90 NEC Display Solutions P463 46-inch monitors, each with a NEC OPS-PCIC-SWS video processor. The video wall is made up of three sections: left, center, and right, with the left and right sections canted in toward the center of the room by 30 degrees. In the center of the video wall is a 3x4 configuration of NEC X554UNS 55-inch monitors, which measures more than 18 feet diagonally.
“The configuration we chose got us all the IP video and sequencing we wanted; plus, we can replace the wall in sections for smaller amounts of money over time as needed,” Forbis said. “We can put individual images anywhere on the wall, or, with the ultra-thin-bezel panels, we can also get a giant picture for the entire room.”
The 90-monitor configuration was not originally planned. The initial contract proposed two 72-inch individual monitors in the center instead of the 3x4 configuration, and about 70 42-inch displays making up the video wall, but Forbis said that after his team looked more closely at the contract, they realized they had to pick a specific manufacturer to correctly space the monitors out on the wall.
“I picked the NEC P463 and gave it to the CaD [computer-aided design] guy and said, ‘Put as many as you can on the wall,’” he said. “When we laid it out, we went from 42-inch displays in the original plan to 46-inch displays, and filled the whole wall up. We can’t get another monitor on this wall.”
Forbis said he selected NEC’s displays after a trial run with the technology.
“I bought two of the P463 and two computers and did some testing,” he said. “The software guys, and everyone else, thought they were really cool.”
Several features of the displays appealed to Forbis and his team, including the 24/7 run time, easy replacement, OPS computers and high efficiency.
“I especially liked the viewing angle and brightness,” Forbis said. “They were just nice, bright displays.”
Although WSDOT engaged an aV integrator, Diversified of Seattle, for the installation, Diversified account Executive Pete Monuteaux said that Forbis chose the technologies he wanted on his own.
“It was a different approach than what we typically do, because usually we’re in earlier, working with the client and making suggestions,” he said. “But we would have gotten the same result from using the NEC displays because they’re really a perfect fit for the application, and from an aesthetic point of view, they all blend well. There might be another brand out there that could have done the job, but I don’t think they’d look the same.”
The installation took place in part of 2015 as well as spring 2016. Both Diversified and Forbis said the installation overall went very well, with a few last-minute workarounds to accommodate.
For example, as Diversified was installing the monitors on the walls, the team discovered that the sheet metal in the false wall built to hold the brackets didn’t go up as high as they thought.
“The building has a two-foot raised floor, and when they laid the steel in the false wall to mount the brackets, we thought we had a foot or two to play with, but the sheet metal was actually measured from the concrete floor,” Forbis said. “So the top row of monitors needed some extra support, and we had to deal with that.”
another quirk was due to the building’s geographical location in the Pacific Northwest.
“The building came with an earthquake requirement, so we had to run the mounting by a structural engineer to make sure the monitors would stay on the walls in case of an earthquake,” Forbis said.
Jackie McNeice, installation manager for Diversified said that Forbis and his team exhibited an “exceptional” level of preparedness.
“He anticipated what we needed for seamless integration, from power and storage, to identifying space for server rooms,” she said. “Michael and WSDOT were also flexible and understanding problem-solvers, which made it a very easy project for us.”
The video wall and individual displays give traffic management center employees a way to view and manage current conditions of freeways, including accidents and maintenance projects, either on their individual desktop displays or on the large video wall.
“The video wall is used for collaboration and continuous monitoring of problem sections where we know accidents are likely to occur,” Forbis said.
The video comes from the approximately 750 cameras in the WSDOT system and traffic detectors on the highways, giving a real-time picture of traffic conditions. A display console is set up for the traffic signal operations group, which uses traffic data and live video from the cameras to change the timing of traffic signals when there are incidents or unexpected congestion.
There also are several control functions for road signs all over the state, such as signage showing the variable toll rates; as a roadway gets more congested, the express toll lane’s price fluctuates, and employees can instantly update the signage to reflect the price.
WSDOT has about 200 variable message signs around the state that it can use to flash messages, such as telling motorists what roads to avoid to get around congestion caused by traffic accidents.
WSDOT also controls a 260-ramp metering system, sometimes called flow lights, which limits how fast motorists get on a freeway.
Other monitoring operations include the roadways and pedestrian walkways inside tunnels, which are monitored 24/7. As WSDOT employees see issues like truck load spills or pooling water, radio operators can dispatch field workers to pick up spills or unclog drains. A 20-seat Emergency Operations Center in the same building uses a line matrix of eight NEC P403 40-inch monitors for traffic video. WSDOT information officers use the displays during emergencies to monitor local news to ensure they are getting out the correct message to the public. There is also a console WSDOT shares with area transit officials.
“During inclement weather, we get their personnel in here, so we can help directly manage buses to avoid problem spots,” Forbis said. “Plus, if they need roads sanded or plowed, we can dispatch maintenance from this location.”
All displays have OPS computers in them, and all are wired with Cat-6 cable to a back room via a large Cisco switch through which WSDOT routes all video traffic. An unusual feature of the computer system is its DIY element: State ITS employees wrote the applications that run on the OPS.
“One reason we went to the effort to do that is that we like having the licensing ourselves,” Forbis said. “We give it to TV stations and major networks and they can tap in to our video for their live newsfeeds, and don’t have to deal with licensing.”
WSDOT also installed five NEC P463 monitors in the office area. Each manager has one on his or her office wall, with two near the supervisors. The monitors include high-end Nextcom OPS computers and wireless keyboards, and are loaded with Microsoft Office and linked to the corporate network.
“Think 46-inch PC on your wall,” Forbis said. “Everyone loves these things!”
Forbis added that the displays in the monitoring and control system have been running 24/7 for more than a year with no failures.
“We never turn off this wall,” he said. “We’re very happy with all of the monitors.” | <urn:uuid:a60239c6-b814-48da-83d3-296e6dda5cb2> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://sharpnecdisplays-stage.azurewebsites.net/success-stories/washington-dot/138 | 2022-10-01T15:45:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030336674.94/warc/CC-MAIN-20221001132802-20221001162802-00076.warc.gz | en | 0.963914 | 2,171 | [

The ABCs of Septoplasty
Septoplasty is surgery to correct any problems in the nasal septum, the wall inside the nose that separates the nostrils.
The septum should ideally run down the center of the nose. When it deviates into one of the nasal cavities, it narrows that cavity and impedes airflow.
When Would I Need Septoplasty?
The main indications for Septoplasty are to repair a crooked, bent, or
deformed nasal septum that blocks the airway in your nose. People with this condition usually breathe through their mouth and may be more likely to get nasal or sinus infections. Septoplasty
may also be performed in cases where a patient is having uncontrollable nosebleeds or to repair a hole in the nasal septum, also called a nasal perforation.
The most common symptom from a badly deviated or crooked septum is difficulty breathing through the nose. The symptoms are usually worse on one side, and sometimes actually occur on the side
opposite the bend. In some cases the crooked septum can interfere with the drainage of the sinuses, resulting in repeated sinus infections.
How is Septoplasty Performed?
The goal of the surgery is to straighten out the nasal septum, to relieve obstructions, or other problems related to the deviation of the septum. An
incision is made internally on one side of the nasal septum. After the mucous membrane is elevated away from the bone, obstructive parts of bone and
cartilage are removed, and plastic surgery is performed as necessary. Then the mucous membrane is returned to its original position.
What Can I Expect After My Septoplasty?
Patients typically go home on the same day as surgery. Most septoplasty procedures successfully
straighten the septum allowing breathing to improve.
Back to Services & Procedures main page
What Are My Options?
If you have been diagnosed with a deviated septum or are having common symptoms associated with a deviated septum, we encourage you to
make an appointment to discuss your symptoms and options with Dr. Greene. A medical consultation is the best way to determine what course
of action is best for your individual needs. Call us at 239.263.8444 to set up an appointment today.
Did You Know?
About 70 to 80 percent of people have a septal deviation that's noticeable to an examiner.
A deviated septum that is moderate to severe can result in nasal obstruction.
If you find that you frequently have sinus infections, then it could be due to a deviated septum.
Most insurance companies and
Medicare cover Sinuplasty.
To be certain of your sinus surgery
insurance coverage, contact your
insurance provider or call our office
and we can help determine if your policy covers this procedure.

This gift does take some time to create but something that could last for a life time. All you need is a jar, paper and a pen. The jar could be something meaningful to the person you give it to. The rule is that the person will open one note every day until there are no more left. When I made this gift for one of my friends, I did a count down to her next birthday meaning I had to write 365 days worth of notes. To make it more interesting you can do some notes from films or TV programs they like, jokes, words or wisdom, things to do together, why you love them and there are many more types you can do. If you want to make it more eye catching, you can colour code the notes you write. | <urn:uuid:1a161d6d-9c68-4b0b-8313-bc46167fc355> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://projectme.platfform4yp.org/resources/do-you-need-a-gift-idea-for-your-family-or-friend/ | 2022-10-04T07:42:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337480.10/warc/CC-MAIN-20221004054641-20221004084641-00076.warc.gz | en | 0.972297 | 156 | [

The MIND in itself refers to the part of a person that enables them to think, feel emotions and be aware of things.
When last were you intentionally aware of your mind? Most times we just coast along with it and let it drive us in whatever direction it leads. When the mind is mostly left unattended, it randomly veers in the direction of the most predominant memories or thoughts from our life’s experiences.
Those memories (especially painful or sad) are referred to as predominant because they carry overpowering effects, borne out of circumstances we mostly had no control over Some examples are the death of a loved one, terminal illnesses, accidents not caused by us, etc. When left unattended, our minds revisit the thoughts from these past events and re-enact them. We sort of experience them all over again and the overpowering feeling of helplessness returns. The moment that happens, we become incapacitated in the present by memories of the past and are unable to function anymore. As long as we continually dwell there, we remain mostly unproductive. Allowing our minds wander also causes us to wander.

How did “Food Day / Film Day” become a reality?
I started EatDrinkFilms with the goal of providing entertaining original writing on food, beverages and the movies. But I also wanted to create a “food film festival” where we could celebrate the exploration of eating and drinking in cinema. While there are hundreds of memorable scenes in movies from Chaplin to Pagnol, Tom Jones to Five Easy Pieces, there is a terrific list of movies that focus on the pleasures (and sometimes downsides) from the consumption of food and drink. And there is a growing list of new movies to add to the collection.
Our plan is to present a full fledged “Feastival” in August, 2016. It will spread over eleven days in San Francisco, Marin, the Peninsula and the East Bay.
Food Day inspires Americans to change their diets and our food policies. On October 24, thousands of events all around the country bring Americans together to celebrate and enjoy real food and to seek improved food policies.
We offered to partner with Food Day to produce a sneak preview of our bigger event.
First we celebrate edible feasts – meals beyond the dinners most of us would ever experience.
Part of our plan has been to invite chefs to introduce a favorite classic movie.
Gayle Pirie and John Clark have made their Mission Street restaurant, Foreign Cinema, one of the city’s most consistently exciting eateries with the always superb food amidst a tribute to international cinema as evidenced by the wonderful collection of movie posters and screenings on the outdoor courtyard wall.
Gayle and John will present the Oscar-winning gastronomic classic Babette’s Feast at 1:15pm on Saturday, October 24. Arrive early so you can enjoy tastings of Vanilla Bean Organic Ice Cream from Straus Family Creamery and handcrafted meringues from The Grand Meringue.
We have created a visual essay of the multi-course feast Babette prepares.
Among the three San Francisco Premieres is a movie about a contemporary dinner that could not have been accomplished at the end of the nineteenth century when Babette’s Feast takes place. The producers of El Somni (The Dream) describe it as:
“An opera in a dozen courses and a banquet in a dozen acts … combining opera, electronica, poetry, 3D, performing arts, singing, reflection, painting, films, music and cookery.”
We offer a trio of featured articles about El Somni. First, find out about the Roca brothers, whose Barcelona based El Celler de Can Roca has recently been named The World’s Best Restaurant. Then we offer complex yet fascinating Roca recipes, a fish entrée and a dessert. Plus our Critics Corner has two different reviews of the film from expert food writers.
The screening of El Somni (The Dream) will be preceded by Spanish influenced tastings from Thirsty Bear Brewing Company, renowned for their tapas. Plus wine.
Later in the week we will bring you an excerpt from Michael Pollan’s best-selling book In Defense of Food, the basis for the new movie by Michael Schwarz, who will introduce his film on Saturday at 4:00pm and be joined by Dean Schillinger, MD from the UCSF Hospital and Diabetes Center, who is featured in the film, for a lively post-screening discussion.
There will be vegetarian goodies from La Mediterranee of Noe Valley before the screening.
We will also feature a review of The Ways of Wine, our third Premiere, which plays Saturday at 9:15pm preceded by Y Rousseau’s Tannat Russian River wine and chocolates. The film will be introduced by Master Sommelier David Glancy, founder of the San Francisco Wine School who will follow the show with stories of his friend Charlie Arturaola, the sommelier who “loses” his palate in the movie.
Plus “Eat My Shorts” will highlight the kinds of works you will see at our free program “Celluloid Appetizers” on Saturday at the Exploratorium’s Kanbar Forum at 11:00am.
The full “Food Day / Film Day” program can be viewed and downloaded here.
Gary Meyer started his first theater in the family barn when he was twelve years old. He directed a monster movie there and wanted to show it on the set. It became The Above-the-Ground Theatre where over 250 films were screened along with live productions, workshops and the publication of a literary/arts/satire zine, “Nort!” and a film newsletter, “Ciné.” After film school at SFSU he calls his first job as a booker for United Artists Theatres “grad school” that prepared him to co-found Landmark Theatres in 1975. It was the first national arthouse chain in the U.S. focused on creative marketing strategies to build loyal audiences for non-Hollywood fare. After selling Landmark, he consulted on many projects including Sundance Cinemas and the Brooklyn Academy of Music’s Rose Cinemas, created the Dockers Classically Independent Film Festival and Tube Film Festival for the X Games, and resurrected the 1926 Balboa Theatre in San Francisco. Meyer joined the Telluride Film Festival in 1998, becoming a Festival Co-Director in 2007-2014. He founded the online magazine, EatDrinkFilms.com in April 2014, and is preparing the EatDrinkFilms Festival for Summer, 2016 with a national tour to follow. A day of food films will be presented as part of Food Day on October 24 in San Francisco. | <urn:uuid:c7ea508e-428c-4965-9ea2-d87e2e54406b> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://eatdrinkfilms.com/2015/10/18/feasts-babettes-from-the-worlds-best-restaurant-food-day-film-day-special/ | 2022-10-06T23:49:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337889.44/warc/CC-MAIN-20221006222634-20221007012634-00076.warc.gz | en | 0.938742 | 1,203 | [

Services For Veterans
Housing and treatment services for homeless veterans struggling with substance abuse
On any given night 48,000 veterans are homeless. 2,399 of those veterans are in New York State (Department of Housing and Urban Development). This leaves New York State ranking 3rd among the states with most homeless veterans. Since 2010, the number of homeless veterans has steadily decreased. In 2016, Mayor Lovely Warren declared Rochester as a city without homeless veterans. Cadence Square is proud to be a part of that movement.
FLACRA’s Cadence Square Housing Program is an OASAS Certified program designed for Veterans. It supports three housing programs: Community Residence, Supportive Living, and Independent Living.
Cadence Square is a Community Residence for veterans struggling with a substance use disorder, mental health needs, or homelessness. FLACRA works closely with the Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC) in Canandaigua to offer counseling and residential services.
Supportive Living Apartments are available at Cadence Square and serve as a transitional step to independent living. Veterans living in our supportive living apartments have access to case managers, services at the VAMC, outpatient treatment programs, and weekly resident meetings. Public transportation is available. Additionally, FLACRA operates a small number of apartments at Victory House, located a short walk from the VAMC campus and on public transportation routes.
Cadence Square Apartments offers independent living on the Canandaigua VA Medical Center (VAMC) Campus in a new, quiet, pristine environment. The unique location allows veterans direct access to VAMC services just a short walk from their home. HUD and VASH vouchers are accepted for rent. FLACRA staff serves as a landlord. Service animals are allowed. There are one, two, and three-bedroom apartments available. | <urn:uuid:3ae9cd75-1201-44b4-8c41-05be4350441c> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://www.flacra.org/services-for-veterans | 2022-10-07T00:17:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337889.44/warc/CC-MAIN-20221006222634-20221007012634-00076.warc.gz | en | 0.930306 | 387 | [

Fox Says Diversity Leads To Good Ratings And Better Business
It's easy, when writing about network TV, to be cynical.
For example, when I heard the Fox network had been holding annual conferences on diversity, telling top show producers their casts and crew had to feature more people of color, I remained skeptical. What's the catch, I wondered?
Turns out, the network began talking about diversity as a business imperative about three years ago, shifting the conversation to the need for TV programing that reflects the multicultural reality of today's world to keep younger viewers. One year, representatives from several advocacy groups representing different ethnic minorities made presentations. The next time, Fox offered a simpler presentation.
The Deadline Hollywood blog reported on this year's event, held in October for more than 150 people including representatives from the top talent agencies in town, Def Jam Recordings co-founder Russell Simmons, and top executives from several Fox-owned TV and film business divisions.
The message: Diversity increases the chance Fox will pick up a new show, promote it, syndicate it and see it do well with audiences.
Years ago, an actor/writer working on a pilot episode for Fox told me she suspected a 2010 session just led producers to transform tertiary white characters into ethnic minorities, with no change in the scripts to acknowledge the shift in race or culture.
But then came this fall's sleeper hit, Sleepy Hollow, Fox's tale about the modern-day adventures of Ichabod Crane. Ichabod somehow awakens in modern times after a 250-year sleep. The story unfolds like The X-Files meets A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (except the Yankee moves forward in time rather than back). Crane teams with a young cop to tackle supernatural weirdness related to the return of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
And the young cop, Abbie Mills, is played by Nicole Beharie, an up-and-coming African-American actor who made a splash as Jackie Robinson's wife this spring in the film 42. Suddenly, the show was anchored by a strong black woman who gets to kick down doors, tote a trusty sidearm and play skeptical Dana Scully to Ichabod Crane's witchcraft-wise Fox Mulder (for the uninitiated, that's an X-Files shout-out).
When the show featured a storyline centered on Mills' sister, we got to see two black women in an action/adventure setting, fighting the bad guys instead of waiting to be rescued or seduced. It was exactly the kind of diverse casting I had been waiting for since 1999, when the issue hit a crisis point as the broadcast networks offered a fall slate of new TV shows without a single character of color.
This isn't just about helping redefine roles for black women on TV. In the case of Sleepy Hollow, it's about finding new storylines and fresh perspectives. An upcoming episode will find the duo facing the legacy of slavery — a storyline that a more old-fashioned network series might have glossed over now has a new twist with an African-American co-lead.
Look across Fox's schedule and you see similar diversity on the comedy Brooklyn Nine-Nine, featuring Andre Braugher, Terry Crews, Melissa Fumero and Stephanie Beatriz (when I met the cast in July, Fumero and Beatriz joked about their surprise at being on a show with two Latinas, but no one playing the "spicy character"). The network's Almost Human, which makes its debut Sunday and Monday, features African-American actor Michael Ealy as co-lead alongside New Zealand native Karl Urban.
And my friend and fellow TV critic James Poniewozik at Time magazine wrote a great online column about how Fox's adding Damon Wayans Jr. back to the cast of The New Girl breaks the unspoken "one black friend" rule on many TV comedies (I'd expand that to "one minority friend" rule, just to include shows ranging from Big Bang Theory to Super Fun Night, where the nonwhite best friend isn't black).
I'm told such casting at Fox is often a result of the diversity sessions, which now include corporate siblings such as FX and Fox Searchlight studios. In the sessions, the case is made that diversity is good business as well as a good deed. Casting an actor like Beharie doesn't happen unless someone is pushing for it, and it's been fun to see that move rewarded with strong ratings and an order for Season 2 before the first has barely started.
This makes it all the more ironic that Fox has been criticized as airing the most racist new show of the fall season, a comedy from the producers of Family Guy and Ted called Dads.
The show features Giovanni Ribisi and Seth Green as millennial video game entrepreneurs with horrifically embarrassing fathers. Said fathers aim insulting jokes at Latina and Asian-American cast members, including a bit where an attractive Asian staffer has to dress like a schoolgirl to distract a group of Chinese businessmen.
Some people reduced the controversy to a case of "don't make fun of minorities." But my theory is that the humor in Dads failed because it centered on stereotypes about the characters, encouraging the audience to see them as crude caricatures. You may be able to get away with that after viewers get to know characters of color; but if you begin by putting them in a cultural box, it's tougher to see them any other way.
There's one wild card left: How will white audiences react? Ask producers of long-ago shows such as Homicide: Life on the Street or The Wire, and they'll note that one reason their shows struggled for viewers was their casts were so diverse that white audiences seemed apathetic.
But today's TV executives are betting that millennials expect more diversity in their pop culture than previous generations — a thought echoed in a recent study released by UCLA that found more viewers were drawn to shows that mirrored the country's ethnic diversity, with smaller audiences for programs on either side of parity.
There's more to be done. ABC's Scandal proves there's ratings gold in giving a talented person of color the sole starring role. And there's a lot of hiring left to do before TV catches up with the country's population of Hispanics or features Asian-Americans and Native Americans.
But Sleepy Hollow just may teach a lesson some of us have been shouting for years.
Sometimes, by doing good, you can also end up doing well, too.

I’m a frequent visitor to Scotland, however most of the times it’s for business rather than leisure. In fact, most of the times it’s a round trip in one day – and all I see is the road from Glasgow airport to the office.
But I knew that there is so much more to Scotland than Glasgow (everyone should know this, ha), and I saw the most beautiful shots whilst watching Outlander – TV series set in Scottish Highlands. So we had to go – and we did, on our 11 year anniversary.
Within 4 days, we saw 7 castles, followed the path of Claire and Jamie in the key filming locations, and overall, travelled almost 500 miles. The trip took my breath away, so I’m sharing it with you, hoping to inspire you to add Scotland to your bucket list.
I fully recommend to put Outlander playlist on (Spotify) whilst scrolling through our journey. ❤ Continue reading “Scotland, you’ve won my heart!” | <urn:uuid:9e8d0e31-067d-475a-b2df-2ae8c08912d5> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://polina.rocks/category/travel/ | 2022-09-26T10:44:24Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030334855.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20220926082131-20220926112131-00276.warc.gz | en | 0.954879 | 212 | [

Pelvic Floor Therapy
Patients can benefit from physical therapy both before and after treatment that focuses on the pelvic floor — the muscular base of the abdomen that is attached to the pelvic bones.
Pelvic floor therapy for rectal cancer consists of training for the external muscles and internal muscles of the pelvic floor that may be affected by surgery or radiation. Surgery may remove or weaken key muscles used in digestion and bowel movements, and radiation may shorten muscle fibers in the pelvic floor. The effects of radiation can last five to 10 years after treatment.
Pelvic floor therapy can help with:
- Urinary continence
- “Clustering” — having a bowel movement three to seven times in a row
- Sexual dysfunction, including problems getting and maintaining an erection, vaginal dryness or tightness from radiation, and pain during intercourse. These problems may occur for the first time after rectal cancer treatment, or treatment may exacerbate earlier sexual dysfunction.
Pelvic floor therapy includes:
- Clinic visits where muscles are manipulated by the physical therapist, with the goal of having the pelvic muscles work together in a coordinated way after treatment. Biofeedback, training to turn muscle action “on and off,” may be a significant part of this therapy.
- At-home exercises including Kegel muscle exercises and deep breathing and relaxation exercises, which can help patients gain control over urinary function and bowel movements
- Diet recommendations: Some rectal patients find digestion of gluten, dairy and high-fat foods especially difficult after treatment.
If possible, patients with rectal cancer should seek out physical therapy before treatment to ensure that the pelvic floor is in the best possible shape, as well as after treatment. It is also recommended that patients with a temporary ostomy should receive pelvic floor therapy while their ostomy is in place, to prepare the muscles for when the ostomy is discontinued and bowel movements resume through the anus. Pelvic floor physical therapy usually begins with therapy sessions once or twice weekly, gradually tapering to fewer treatments over the course of three to six months after rectal cancer treatment is completed.
The ERAS Pathway: A Quicker Recovery After Colorectal Surgery | Colorectal Surgeon Jonathan Efron
Jonathan Efron discusses the implementation of the ERAS pathway across the Johns Hopkins Health System and its multiple benefits for patients, including reduced pain after surgery and improvements in breathing, moving and talking.
Patients of child-bearing age who are scheduled for radiation therapy may wish to take advantage of fertility preserving options before beginning their treatment. The Johns Hopkins rectal cancer team can recommend fertility specialists for both men and women to discuss these options. For men, sperm banking may be an option. For women, options include a laparoscopic surgical procedure called ovarian transposition, which temporarily moves the ovaries out of the field of radiation during treatment.
Colon Cancer Patients Couples Retreat
The couples retreat is for patients living with metastatic colorectal cancer and their partners and provide an opportunity to share and network with others facing the same challanges. It is designed to ease psychological distress for the patient and the spouse and faciilitate interactions in an environment that is comfortable and conducive to open frank discussions about emotional impact of metastatic colorectal cancer on the patient, spouse and other family members.

Finding the perfect screen printing press can be overwhelming. With all of the information out there, you can easily get turned around and confused just by the sheer number of options. Luckily, many printers have gone through this exact process before. Here are the top three factors to keep in mind when choosing a screen printing machine of your own.

SPACE AND BUDGET
Space and budget are the most important factors when choosing a press. Are you printing out of a kitchen or spare room? If so, you might want to invest in a table top screen printing machine. Limited space doesn't have to stop your ambition. There are tons of great table top screen printing machines on the market that are reliable and perfect for a small space. The Riley Hopkins 150 is a great press for printers starting their shops or looking to get their feet wet in the industry. Light and sturdy, it's perfect for a small shop space.
If you have a bigger budget and know you’re going to be printing lots of multi-color prints, one step up is the Riley Hopkins 250. With its XY and tilt micros, registering becomes a breeze. The base can screw into pretty much any table or press cart for an easy mobile option. You can print multiple color prints in your garage, in your kitchen, spare bedroom, attic: you name it. You can even take it on the road with you. There are benefits to being small!

If you've got some room to stretch out, go for the full sized screen printing machine. These presses are made to last. The advantage of going big is durability in the long haul. If you're planning to run this press eight hours a day or print in more of a production environment, you'll want something that can last for decades. Choose a press brand that has a good history. Make sure that whatever press you get, it is a joy for you to print on, because you're going to be spending a lot of time doing exactly that.
SMALL PRESS, BIG IMAGINATION
Amanda Dunigan, owner of Salt & Pine Co., started screen printing with a DIY press she built from 2X4s. Amanda initially was decorating shirts with vinyl, but soon switched to screen printing because the vinyl was peeling off her shirts after a while.
“It was gut-wrenching every time I got another message [from a client] saying that the shirt peeled,” Amanda said.
When it became clear that screen printing was Amanda’s passion, she invested in a more durable, precise press like the Riley Hopkins 150. It’s an investment, but worth it if you plan on screen printing for another source of income or for a long time.
No matter which press you purchase, remember it’s not the size of your press that matters, but the size of your creativity.

This may be the most challenging to decide because the more colors and stations you have, the more you can do, and the more it costs. How many colors do you want to be able to print per design? The number of colors you use in your design should equal the number of print heads you have on your press, including an extra head for a white under-base when printing on black or dark garments. This is because every head can hold only one screen, and each screen represents the stencil for only one color at a time.
The biggest thing to remember is to plan ahead. If you plan to print CMYK, you'll need at least four colors. If you're planning to only print one color spot color designs such as block text, you might not need as many color heads. The more colors you print though, the more print heads you’ll want on your press. Most production printers choose between a 4 and 8 color screen printing machine. This allows you to print versatile designs and even have more than one job up at the same time on the press. It's also very helpful for those rush jobs, or if you have multiple deadlines.
If you choose a screen printing machine with a lot of colors, you will want to add multiple stations too. Choosing how many stations you’ll want depends on how big the job is. Every additional station you have allows you to work that much faster. You will also want to consider having at least one additional station for flashing. Anything needing a white under-base will need to be flashed before printing additional colors onto. The more stations you have in-between, the less time you will have idly waiting for your shirt to flash and come back to you for the next layer.

If you want to print four-color designs, get at least a 4 color 2 station screen printing machine. If you want faster printing and less waiting, add more stations to your press and get a 6 color 4 station screen printing machine, or bump it up to an 8 color 6 station screen printing machine for a versatile and powerful screen printing machine.
Be prepared to invest in what you want the first time, or accept that you may need to expand into a bigger press later. Remember, it's totally okay to start small and expand later. Many screen printers start with a simple one color screen printing machine and get a bigger press when they’re ready. If you invest in a high quality press to begin with, you'll never get rid of it.
BUYING QUALITY AND BUYING USED
Joey Avila, owner of Avila Design Company, started his screen printing journey with a Riley Hopkins 150 and a few used screens from Facebook in a spare bedroom. He cured garments in his kitchen oven and washed out screens at his local car wash. When Jonathan Overmeyer, owner of Golden Press Studio, saw Joey’s drive, he knew he had to help.
“I’m just going to help a brother out,” Jonathan said. “I just wanted to see what he needs and I was like, ‘Man let’s make this a big deal and really hook him up.’ That was the start.”
The crew loaded up their truck with an exposure unit, washout booth, power washer, two flash dryers, squeegees, platens, whole line of FN-INK™, spatulas, water-based pallet adhesive, EZ Grip Squeegees, scale, screen tape, and a conveyor dryer.
Since then, Joey has upgraded his press, thanks to the screen printing community. He turned to the Rogue Printers Facebook Group in search of a press. He found a used Riley Hopkins WIN Series 6X4. The shop selling it was local: United State Print Co., located in central Indiana. The company had just upgraded to an auto, and was selling their manual press. The 6X4 was a perfect upgrade for Joey. With more stations, he could get jobs out the door quicker.
Upgrading your equipment will help you reach those high-profile jobs. Upgrading with quality equipment will ensure that your equipment hustles as hard as you do.
Pro Tip: Most large shops still have the manual press they started with, because you will always get small jobs. If you don’t want to keep your old, smaller press, you can sell it through a number of methods. Check out this blog to learn more.

MANUAL OR AUTOMATIC
Intention is key. If you're planning to just print by yourself, start a small brand or clothing line, or you simply love the act of pushing/pulling a squeegee, a manual screen printing machine should cover your needs. A manual press is the universal starting point for most small screen printing businesses and new printers.
Your space, budget, and production volume will also dictate whether you should go manual or automatic. Automatic presses cost more, take up more space, and output high volumes. As it has already been said, the vast majority of screen printers start off with a manual press. As their business grows, they work their way up into bigger and bigger manual presses until the day comes where their body simply cannot keep up with the demand of orders. Take a look at where you’re at now, set some goals, and get what you need to help you reach your goals.
Do your research so you know what you’re getting. Brands like Riley Hopkins® that have been around for decades and are routinely updated to stay ahead of the newest technology in screen printing are going to provide you with the best starting point. Good quality manual presses are an investment that grows with you. If you choose a high quality, manual screen printing press to begin with, your press will last you long through any expansion your business may undergo. You can always upgrade to an automatic later.

The most important thing to keep in mind when choosing the right screen printing machine is to identify your expectations. Once you do that, you're already halfway towards making your first print. | <urn:uuid:44e58ea5-8b09-4766-a7ea-5b5ff69a28d5> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://www.screenprinting.com/blogs/news/choosing-the-right-screen-printing-machine | 2022-09-27T17:12:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030335054.79/warc/CC-MAIN-20220927162620-20220927192620-00276.warc.gz | en | 0.954491 | 1,888 | [

Ask and you shall receive friends!!! 🙂
Spring is the perfect time to bring light-weight, bright scarfs into your wardrobe and outfit choices. Not only are they fashionable, they are functional too as it’s still cold and breezy out keeping the delicate area of the neck covered will help keep the rest of you warm.
I’ve put together a collection of helpful resources I’ve used/refer to when I want to give an outfit a new look, to dress up your outfit or to simply add some pizzazz with a scarf.
I personally have Three “go-to” knots for the scarves I wear:
1. The Giant Bow
There is really nothing to this scarf-tying technique. Simply drape the scarf around your neck (keeping it as long and both sides as even as possible), then criss-cross the two pieces into a bow as you would your shoelaces. You can keep the bow small…or fluff out each side of creating a larger puffy bow like I did above 🙂
2. The Side Braid
Now this one is a bit more tricky …leaving me to usually have to re-watch the YouTube vid once again, before wearing my own scarf like this. So I’m including the vid for y’all 🙂
Once tied, you can simply lift it over your head and keep braid in-tact. This way you have one always ready-to-go with this clever braid-tied-technique to save you time. Just saying’ 😉
3. The Fancy Knot
For much of the winter months, this was my scarf-knot of choice. It works really well with thicker, bulkier scarves …. but using light-weight ones work as well, just keep the knot nice and loose, and it’ll look great!
Lastly, check out The Knot Library for additional quick scarf-tying images to help you recreate the look of your scarf by trying a new knot to change the look around your neck 🙂

Gives the user a chance to run scripts that can not fit into a Macro.
2014-08-27 - (version not recorded) ∞
Is there some sort of
OutRunner_scriptPlay([script])type feature, so that I can run an OutRunner script from Lua code or a complex macro? If not, then this is a feature request.
/or- should achieve the same thing as
/or scripts- should have an "add" function.
/or play [script]- (new) play a script
- For a good implementation, see _DevPad .. the comments section says the author has worked on a new version which has even better highlighting.
- Right now,
/or scriptsdisplays a single dropdown box for all scripts. It would be nice to have a very very large number of scripts, and for the list of scripts to have nesting.
- When I have
/or scriptsopen, and I am editing a script, I'd like to be able to press escape and have the cursor removed from OutRunner so that I can, for example, type things in chat.
- Hotkeys to summon up specific code.
A way to hide that bar.

Essential oils have been used for centuries and they have a myriad of uses. One of these is their potential to repel mosquitoes.
When we spend much time outdoors, we become victims of these flying pests, which leave itchy bites and can transmit disease.
However, essential oils are excellent in keeping mosquitoes away and thus prevent these issues. Yet, you should learn which ones to use and how to combine them in order to get the best effects.
These are the best carrier oils for the mosquito-repelling essential oils:
- Olive oil
- Sunflower oil
- Witch hazel
You should always read the instructions on the bottle of the oil to learn how to properly dilute it in order to ensure it is safe for use.
- Cinnamon Oil
Cinnamon essential oil quickly destroys mosquito eggs and thus reduces the number of mosquitoes. Mix 4 ounces of water and 24 drops of this oil in a spray bottle, and spray on upholstery , clothes, as w plants and patio furniture.
- Lemon Eucalyptus Oil
Lemon eucalyptus oil has been used as a mosquito repellent since the 1940s, and it has been confirmed to be effective by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
According to a study published in the Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association, a 32 percent lemon eucalyptus essential oil ensures up to 3 hours of mosquito protection and stops about 95 percent of mosquitoes from biting.
All you need to do is to add one part of this essential oil to 10 parts of some carrier oil, preferably witch hazel or sunflower oil. Note that this mixture is not suitable for use in the case of children three years of age and younger.
- Thyme Oil
The Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association published a study that analyzed the way this essential oil works to protect hairless mice against mosquitoes.
Apparently, researchers found that it offers 91 percent protection. You should mix a teaspoon of either jojoba oil or olive oil with 4 drops of thyme oil and spray to keep mosquitoes away.
Also, you can add 5 drops of it to 2 ounces of water in a spray bottle and prepare a natural repellent.
Mosquitoes hate the smell of lavender, but apart from this, this essential oil can actually soothe mosquito bites.
You should dilute it as written on the bottle, and then dab some of it on the ankles and wrists to keep mosquitoes at bay. It is a wise idea to plant some lavender plants in your garden, which will protect you from these pests.
- Greek Catnip Oil
This essential oil is a member of the mint family, and a study published in Parasitology Research confirmed its strong mosquito repelling properties.
A single application will protect you from mosquitoes for approximately two to three hours. Additionally, another research study conducted at Iowa State University, which compared this essential oil to DEET, found that it is even 10 times more effective at repelling mosquitoes.
- Soybean Oil
A 2% soybean oil is excellent in the fight against mosquitoes, and due to this property, it is used as a primary ingredient in numerous commercial mosquito repellents. You can add some lemongrass oil to enrich its fragrance.
We suggest the following ultimate essential oil natural mosquito repellent:
- 30 drops of lemon eucalyptus essential oil blend
- 4 ounces witch hazel, rubbing alcohol, or vodka
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
In a small bowl, mix these ingredients and pour the mixture into a spray bottle. Then, spray before going outside, especially around water, and during mosquito hours, early in the morning.
Therefore, essential oils can be your potent ally against mosquitoes and the itchy, annoying bits they leave behind. Yet, always make sure you dilute the oil properly and do a small patch test to ensure it is safe and won’t cause any irritations, or allergies. | <urn:uuid:c5932cbc-ed0d-44b4-ad60-4f396fb6b8c5> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://usadailyreports.com/doctors-mosquitoes-wont-leave-alone-use-repellent-works-better-toxic-sprays/ | 2022-10-03T02:16:19Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337371.9/warc/CC-MAIN-20221003003804-20221003033804-00276.warc.gz | en | 0.94444 | 835 | [

Housed in NYU’s department of Comparative Literature, the Comparative Approaches to the Literatures of Africa, the Middle East, and the Global South (CALAMEGS) Student Working Group seeks to complement the certificate program of the same name. We aim to incorporate methods that make the field of Comparative Literature less Eurocentric while also introducing more comparative paradigms to those working in area-based fields. We are bringing in four scholars: Eric Hayot (Penn State) Luis Othoniel Rosa (Nebraska University), Amal Eqeiq (Williams College) and Susan Stanford Friedman (University of Wisconsin-Madison) who are working on the connections between or within Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Our aim is to situate the Global South within a set of critical practices around the archive. By this, we mean the re-examination of cultural production and practices overlooked in other paradigms such as postcolonial studies and the generation of alternate, non-teleological futurities. However, we are also interested in critically examining the practices of knowledge production in academia as it relates to the Global South; How can we prevent Global South studies from being co-opted by the neoliberal academic establishment as a site of knowledge extraction? | <urn:uuid:9a8b9ff0-c4ce-4283-b063-7068d7b5442a> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://as.nyu.edu/complit/events/2018-2019/calamegs-symposium.html | 2022-10-04T11:22:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337490.6/warc/CC-MAIN-20221004085909-20221004115909-00276.warc.gz | en | 0.929417 | 255 | [

The Institute for Atmospheric and Earth System Research, INAR, is a multidisciplinary research centre at the University of Helsinki. INAR carries out high-level national and international atmospheric and environmental research, producing research data for society to utilise. The research at the institute spans from the molecular level all the way to extensive global challenges.
Jouni Keronen is a Doctor of Technology and an MBA. In his research he has focused on solutions to mitigate climate change, developing energy technologies, and the deployment of IT in the energy business. He has deepened his knowledge of atmospheric research in leading posts in the Climate Leadership Coalition (CLC) and Fortum.
Last spring, Keronen retired from CLC. He was the first managing director of the organisation established in 2014, and still works part-time as the second speaker of its advisory committee and a consultant for CLC.
He has also held several leading posts in the international Fortum energy group, and has been a researcher at VTT and in Californian SRI International and Electric Power Research Institute. Keronen is also the vice chair of the Finnish government's Climate Policy Roundtable and a docent of the LUT University. In collaboration with Mari Pantsar, Keronen wrote the internationally acknowledged climate book At the Crossroads, which was first published in Finnish in 2019 under the name Tienhaarassa.
– Keronen is a great choice, because he has excellent knowledge of climate change as a whole and he is networked both nationally and internationally in the academic and business world. We hope that Keronen will help us develop significant international projects focusing on carbon cycles, says Academician Markku Kulmala, director of INAR and ACCC.
As Professor of Practice, Keronen wants to promote collaborations between INAR and leading international research and financing organisations in the same field.
– During this century, we must remove about the same amount of greenhouse gases from the atmosphere as we emit there from now on. No country has yet made sufficient commitments when it comes to carbon sinks and stocks on this scale. Since it often takes dozens of years to develop carbon sinks, we need to hurry with the large-scale actions. We also need more research data on this topic in order to activate countries in the matter, says Keronen.
The professorship is a part-time post lasting five years. | <urn:uuid:5f7cb44f-11d1-4bf0-ae82-0ba686d9e472> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://www.helsinki.fi/en/news/university/jouni-keronen-hired-professor-practice-institute-atmospheric-and-earth-system-research-inar | 2022-10-04T10:58:27Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337490.6/warc/CC-MAIN-20221004085909-20221004115909-00276.warc.gz | en | 0.951324 | 481 | [

Specifically indicated in irregular uterine contractions, [Viburnum opulus] is also used for muscle spasms of all types, including in smooth and skeletal muscles, bronchi (such as in asthma), arteries (contributing to hypertension), and the bladder. Its effect on smooth muscle appears to be greater than on skeletal muscle.
- American Herbal Pharmacopoeia
This probably won’t surprise you, given its common name, but Viburnum opulus is exceptional at relieving muscle cramps. It has a special affinity for smooth muscle tissues but works well for striated muscles as well.
Cramp bark for cramps! Sounds simple enough!
But plants rarely are that simple and, instead, have more complex ways of working in the body. For example, herbalist jim mcdonald categorizes cramp bark as an herb that “relaxes tissues and astringes tissues.” He feels that it both astringes mucosa and relaxes the underlying muscle tissues.
This monograph will look at the myriad of ways that Viburnum opulus works to relieve muscle cramping and astringes tissues, how to use it with the best results, and how to avoid using it like a Band-Aid solution without ever getting to the root cause of the problem.
Cramp bark is the herb that many herbalists reach for to relieve painful menstrual cramps. It seems to work best if taken 1-2 days before cramping starts, but can also be taken as needed.
Cramp bark is considered a uterine decongestant. Signs of uterine congestion include bloating, cramping before menstruation, as well as delayed menses. Uterine congestion can also be a pattern associated with endometriosis, fibroids and ovarian cysts.
I’ve talked to many women who have had menstrual cramps their whole lives and think that this is “normal.” Painful menstruation is not natural! It’s a symptom and can be addressed.
My take-home message is that, yes, cramp bark is stellar for relieving painful menstrual cramping. However, if a woman is continually experiencing painful cramps or other PMS symptoms, then it is far better to get to the root cause of the matter and get rid of them once and for all!
chief therapeutic error made when treating acute severe menstrual
cramps is to under dose, both in the size of the dose and its frequency.
The German author R.F. Weiss suggests minimum doses of 20-30 drops, and
a maximum of a teaspoon (Weiss). Doses may be repeated every several
hours. Ellingwood suggests 20 drops every hour.
- Paul Bergner, NAIMH Course Materials
Urinary tract infections and bladder infections are often associated with frequent and painful urination. Cramp bark can relieve the pain and decrease the urgent frequency as well. Of course, the infection itself will still need to be addressed, but cramp bark will ease a lot of the discomfort.
Cramp bark combines well with bearberry for bladder infections with painful cramping and frequent urination with little passed. - Herbalpedia
For acute cases of diarrhea, such as in food poisoning, we don’t necessarily want to prematurely stop the diarrhea. However, it is doubtful that cramp bark would have an inhibitory effect.
Spasmodic coughing can be the worst kind of cough. This is characterized by a dry cough, meaning no mucus is expectorated, and often gets worse at night. It can be spasmodic in nature, resulting in repeated coughing that keeps you from sleep, burns the throat and is all-around unpleasant.
Antispasmodic herbs like cramp barkcan relieve the muscle spasm causing this type of cough and therefore promote restful sleep.
There are many causes for high blood pressure and many ways to find solutions for high blood pressure. Cramp bark can relieve tension in the cardiac muscle, arteries and veins, which can contribute to decreased blood pressure. This is especially suited for the person with lots of stress, tension and a type A attitude. Of course, diet, lifestyle and other cardiac herbs will need to be used to make a difference in someone’s long-term health.
Have you ever “thrown out your back”? I have, countless times. One minute you’re doing a seemingly innocent thing like picking something off the floor (or you’re totally overdoing it gardening) and bam! something slips out of place and the pain increases steadily until lifting your pinky finger creates excruciating pain.
After a while the muscles around the area seize up, which immobilizes you even more. This is not necessarily a bad thing! Those seized muscles are protecting this vulnerable area. The holistic approach here is rest! Popping some pills or herbs and then heading back out to the garden is not a good idea and it can injure you further.
I often use cramp bark as a fomentation over cramped muscles when I’ve thrown out my back AND I rest and stay mostly immobilized. The cramp bark fomentation significantly decreases the discomfort, but I am also not going to push myself too much and increase the risk of further injury.
Another common way that cramp bark can be used is for restless legs. Restless legs are when your legs jump and move involuntarily as you are falling asleep. The underlying cause needs to be addressed, whether it is a nervous system issue or nutrient deficiencies (hint: magnesium deficiency is common). However, while figuring out what is going on, cramp bark tincture or cramp bark tea can relieve the spastic muscles and promote sleep.
Cramp bark is used by midwives for both a threatened miscarriage, early labor and during labor. Kinda sounds a bit contradictory. That’s the beautiful complexity of herbs.
Cramp bark can relax the uterus to stop uterine contractions if they are happening too early, such as in a threatened miscarriage or early labor. However, cramp bark also helps to tone and regulate contractions, which can facilitate a healthy labor.
though cramp bark is a uterine relaxant, it does not appear to
interfere with labor. Rather, it promotes uterine muscle tone and
regulates the rhythm of the contractions, resulting in effective uterine
contractions. Cramp bark is also indicated for afterpains and is useful
in helping the uterus to regain its normal shape.
- American Herbal Pharmacopeia
Headaches and migraines that are associated with tension respond well to formulas that include cramp bark. Here’s an example of such a formula from herbalist Robert Dale Rogers:
Cramp bark is a deciduous shrub that grows up to 4 or 5 m tall.
It is native to the northern hemispheres and is often grown as an ornamental shrub.
It has opposite leaves with three lobes. The leaves are 5-10 cm long.
The flowers are both male and female and are white. The flowers are corymbs that comprise an outer layer of sterile flowers surrounding the center of small fertile flowers. The flowers bloom in the early summer and are insect-pollinated.
The fruits are produced in drupes and are bright red.
As the name indicates, we primarily use the bark for medicine. Cramp bark can be used in a variety of ways:
Aviva Romm recommends the following tincture for pain in children:
Jamaican Dogwood (Piscidia piscipula) – Cramp Bark (Viburnum opulus) tincture (a 50/50 combination) is a reliable alternative to ibuprofen or Tylenol for pain relief.
5-10 drops to children under 5; 10-20 drops to children 5-12, and 2-3
mL to older children. Repeat the dose in 15- 20 minutes, then every 2-4
hours as needed. Jamaican dogwood is said to cause respiratory paralysis
in excessive doses; do not exceed the above doses and keep out of reach
- Aviva Romm, Plant Healer #6
William Cook wrote in 1869 that his favorite cramp bark preparation was a syrup:
best method of preparation is in some compound sirup; but it may be
formed into decoction by macerating two ounces in a quart of hot water,
expressing, evaporating to half a pint, and giving a fluid ounce three
or four times a day.
- Cook Materia Medica, 1869
I have no experience using the berries as food or medicine, so I rely on herbalist Robert Dale Rogers for the following:
The berries are rich in Vitamins C and K, and are used for coughs, colds, or a daily cordial that helps keep hypertension in check. The berries are tart, but delicious and can be preserved as a jam or ketchup for wild game. The berries contain water-soluble polysaccharides that possess immune stimulating activity and enhance phagocytosis.
The following comes from the American Herbal Pharmacopoeia monograph:
The American Herbal Pharmacopoeia says that there is no known contraindication or toxicity associated with cramp bark. Other herbalists list the following special considerations:
Viburnum opulus is a natural and safe pain reliever for pain that is caused by muscle cramping and tension. Pharmaceutical pain relievers, even mild ones, cause serious side effects, sometimes death. The CDC reports that NSAIDs cause around 7,000 deaths a year!
Cramp bark offers us another alternative that is safer, effective and potentially far cheaper. Given the wide range of cramp bark's abilities, it's a good herb to keep in your medicine cabinet.

GetAWAY: Learn about cheese in France
Editor's note: This is for Oct. 10 publication. There are two optional sidebars below. If you do not run them, please put the information number at the end of the story.
The French can talk about cheese until the cows come home. If you doubt that, take a tour in the Franche-Comté region with local farmer Jean-Francois Marmier, who goes by the nickname “Taz.”
“We need hours, days, months, years to talk about Comté (cheese),” said Taz, whose passion for cheese is surpassed only by his fascination with the Australian island of Tasmania, which he once visited – he even wears an Australian cowboy hat when tending his herd of 45 cows (and when giving tours).
And Taz is right that the fruity and nutty Comté is a cheese worth talking about, firm yet creamy, and among the most popular cheeses in France, a country where more than 600 varieties of cheese are produced.
Comté is very much a part of the culture of France’s Jura Mountains, a place of green hills and valleys, where you can easily tap into the real, unspoiled France – in this case eastern France near the Swiss border.
The cheese has been made there for 1,000 years using milk from Montbeliarde cows that graze in the lush pastures. And it’s becoming a tourist attraction. You can visit farms with cows, dairies where the cheese is created using traditional methods and cellars where the rounds of cheese are aged. The regional tourism department has even created a Comté Cheese Trail with driving route suggestions.
Taz, who gives tours of the local co-op dairy in the little town of Bouverans, enthusiastically explains the cheesemaking process. The cows are milked twice a day and the warm milk from his and a half dozen other local farms, some 530,000 gallons annually, goes to the dairy, where the cheesemakers do magic by adding rennet, an enzyme that comes from a calf’s stomach, creating a curd that in expert hands results in a light yellow cheese.
The Bouverans dairy produces 13 to 20 giant rounds of Comté per day, each weighing in at about 88 pounds. And the Bouverans facility is just one of 170 co-op cheese dairies in the region (and Taz one of 3,200 farmers contributing milk). After the rounds are firmed at the dairy for two to three weeks (the rind is created by salting), they go to one of 20 regional cellars to age. The most popular Comté, and the variety we usually see in the U.S., is 12 months old, and has a nice tang somewhat akin to Gruyere, although more aged Comté has an appealing sharper taste foodies may prefer (ask your cheese shop which varieties they offer).
Some 65,000 wheels of cheese can be seen aging at Fort Saint-Antoine in Malbuisson. The fort, completed in 1882, is home to the aging cellar Marcel Petite (www.comte-petite.com; Web site is in French). Here again, a tour will no doubt feature a guide with a passion for cheese – the look, the smell, the taste. Yes, cheese in Franche-Comté gets a treatment much like wine, with aficionados using multiple senses to evaluate the quality.
They peer at it, sniff it, press it between their fingers, even listen to it and, finally, spend as long chewing as they possibly can.
Lest you think the Franche-Comté region is all about cheese and farmlands, it’s also about quaint towns and mountain views (from the taller mountains you can see Switzerland), lakes filled with trout, deep forests and historic attractions.
A good place to base yourself is Arbois, a little town surrounded by green hills and vineyards. It’s where Louis Pasteur, inventor of the rabies vaccine, was raised and did a number of his experiments. You can visit his house, where rooms, including his laboratory, are furnished as they were at the time of his death in 1895 (Maison Pasteur, 83, rue Courcelles, Arbois, www.academie-sciences.fr/pasteur.htm; Web site is in French). The house where Pasteur was born in 1822 is about 40 minutes away in the city of Dole and is now a museum dedicated to the famed scientist’s life and work (Musee Pasteur, 43, rue Pasteur, Dole, www.musee-pasteur.com.)
Arbois’ downtown includes small shops under the arches of an 18th century arcade near the town square.
A must-do is a casual lunch at Les 4 heures du Cremier, a cheese shop with a little table nook in the back, serving delicious sandwiches and salads and omelets featuring, of course, cheese ($6.60-$9.40, 44, Grande Rue, Arbois).
Because this is France, there is wine in the Franche-Comté picture too, with a wine trail (www.jura-wines.com) taking visitors past market towns and wine-growing villages where some vineyards date back hundreds of years. Arbois also has a regional wine museum offering tastings. The key local product is vin jaune, which may not be to everyone’s taste – it’s a sherry-like yellow wine, made from the Savagnin grape – but it goes very well with Comté cheese.
OPTIONAL SIDEBAR 1
IF YOU GO
Fly nonstop from Logan to Paris on Air France (www.airfrance.com), Delta (operated by Air France; www.delta.com) or American Airlines (www.aa.com). You can take a high-speed train from Paris (www.raileurope.com), which gets you to Dole in about two hours, then you’ll need to rent a car to get around. Or include the region in a driving tour – it’s an easy day trip from Burgundy and a good stop on the road from Alsace to the South of France.
You should know: In the countryside, French language skills are helpful.
In Arbois, Hotel des Messageries (2, rue de Courcelles, 03 84 66 15 45, www.hoteldesmessageries.com) is more comfortable than fancy, ivy-covered outside and with a nice old-fashioned bar and a cheery breakfast room. $78-$83 per night for two.
In the small spa town of Salin-les-Bains, Residence Hoteliere Charles Sander offers big rooms by French standards, nicely furnished and with kitchenettes, from $83-$101 for two in summer high season (26 rue de la Republique, 33 384 73 36 40, www.residencesander.com).
If you prefer a city stay, in downtown Dole, near the main shopping street, is Hotel in Dole, Hotel de la Cloche, a three-star hotel, ($91-$128 for two, 1, Place Grevy, Dole, 33 3 84 82 06 06, www.la-cloche.fr.
Franche-Comte Regional Tourism Committee: www.franche-comte.org
OPTIONAL SIDEBAR 2
Comté cheese is a good source of calcium – a 3-ounce serving has 30 percent of the recommended daily intake for adults. The cheese is rich in vitamins A and C and a good source of protein. It’s made without additives, artificial coloring or chemicals. Comté is nice on a cheese plate and particularly good melted in fondue or grilled cheese sandwiches, or mixed in with eggs. Thin slices also make a nice salad topper. | <urn:uuid:bc12ec24-7e30-4255-b2db-bb0b62351cf3> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://www.hollandsentinel.com/story/news/2007/10/03/getaway-learn-about-cheese-in/46251483007/ | 2022-10-07T02:13:31Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337906.7/warc/CC-MAIN-20221007014029-20221007044029-00276.warc.gz | en | 0.935275 | 1,712 | [

Why Going On A Reality TV Dating Show Is Better Than Online Dating
When I was single and searching for the man of my dreams, I had the best job in the world – I was a reality television casting director for a big dating show. It was my job to search high and low for single hotties to cast on TV.
Being the resourceful (and, yes, perhaps a little desperate) late 20-something gal that I was, I often used my job as a dating service with just one client: me. If I was out recruiting and met a guy who wasn’t the perfect fit for the show, I’d often see if he was the perfect fit for me. Best. Job. Ever.
Along with scouring the country for man meat, I also had a tendency to exploit the world of online dating to entice guys to audition for the show.
I wooed available men off of all the major dating sites – Match.com, JDate.com (nope, I’m not Jewish), and, of course, the mother of all meet your match dating websites: eHarmony.com. Sure, I felt badly poaching potential soul mates from SexxyLexxi124 in Hoboken, NJ, but I had a job to do.
A few years into my reality show casting career, this got me thinking: so many singles spend massive amounts of time and money on dating sites – eHarmony being the biggest offender, with its mile long Relationship Questionnaire – with no guarantee that the man or woman on the other side of that insanely long personality test isn’t… well, insane.
I suddenly felt like I was doing a public service by putting people on TV and saving them from the clutches of online dating!
Let me explain.
Before the first rose, as it were, is ever handed out, every person you see on a reality dating show has been put through the reality TV casting ringer. In order to appear on a big dating show, you must first pass a series of tests. No, not I.Q. – when has that ever been a requirement? I’m talking more the mental and physical kind.
Depending on the show, you might undergo a Psychological exam to see if you are mentally fit for the show – these can often be around 800 questions. Sometimes, you’ll even meet with an actual Psychiatrist.
Next, you’ll undergo a physical exam. No, not the turn and cough kind – but rather an in-depth STD exam. (They have to keep that hot tub water clean, yo!)
Obviously we have to keep contestants as safe as we can, especially when spit swapping makes up 80% of the activity on a show. We take this very seriously and, sadly, this step is where we lose a lot of potential candidates. What do we look for? Big, scary STDs. Not like all STDs aren’t big and scary, but some can be treated.
I have to say, making the call to the gal who flunked the STD test is not a fun call to make. But someone has to do it. Let’s see eHarmony try that one!
Okay, you’re probably thinking – why the hell would anyone go on a really dating show over online dating if this is what they have to look forward to?
I admit, it can get intense. But think about it. WE DO ALL THE HARD WORK FOR YOU. If you’re getting poked and prodded – mentally and physically – you know YOUR DATE is, too. And isn’t it comforting to know that when you meet your potential soul mate up close and on camera, you know he’ll be free of all communicable diseases, major mental defects and hopefully criminal charges. (YES, we also perform super in-depth background checks, too.)
Hey, I’m totally not bad mouthing dating sites, though. It’s a great way to meet people and hopefully find true love. I know lots of friends who’ve met their “soul mate” that way. And I know not every person who applies to get on a reality dating show will be considered for or actually cast on the show. I’m just saying that if you can make it through the casting process in one piece, it’s a solid alternative that offers incredible benefits – being whisked away in a helicopter the least of them.

What does the rain mean for my crawlspace?
Rain! Rain! Rain! What does this mean in my crawlspace?
Moisture seems to have its eye focused on us here in the South. The shorter winter days have been filled with washout type rainfall, more so than most can remember in past years. Warmer temperatures have accompanied the massive amounts of rainfall and cloudy days. As the soil hits saturation limits, our rivers swell, roads become damaged and that moisture looks for areas to spread.
The dry dirt under your home can be one of the targets. The mortar joints and waterproofing (or lack thereof) around the foundation walls may also be a highway for the water to gain access into the crawlspace. Another possibility is that the foundation vents could be allowing too much humid air into your crawlspace. The list goes on!
But what can you, the homeowner, do about this?
- Look up! During the next rainfall, walk around your home with an umbrella in hand, to access the gutters and downspouts ability to shed the water properly away from your home.
- Are there areas where the existing gutters cannot handle the flow of water off the roof and cause the water to flow over the gutters, splashing against the foundation wall?
- Is there a downspout that empties onto the ground, that then drains back towards the house?
- Does the downspout simply empty its contents directly against the foundation wall?
- Look in! Take a peek in your crawlspace. Bigfoot does not live under there. We promise!
- Is there evidence of standing water or areas in the foundation where you can see light coming through? This would indicate a failure in the mortar joints of the foundation.
- The “M” word…. Is there a sign of fungal growth or mold on the wood members in the crawlspace?
- Is the insulation hanging down or sagging from the ceiling of the crawlspace? This is caused by moisture weighing the fiberglass down.
- Does the crawlspace smell musty or wet?
- Look around! Survey your yard during the next rain and observe the flow of moisture to or from your home. You know your home better than anyone! If there is evidence of moisture in certain areas, take note and take action! Typically, allowing the moisture more time to do damage will not make the problem disappear.
Based on your findings, the protocols for remediating the issue will be different. If water intrusion is the issue (water coming through the foundation wall), the water can be directed around the structure with perforated drain pipe. Or, piping the downspout runoff can be directed around the structure versus dumping all that watershed from the roof, directly against the foundation wall. A drain system and sump pump may be needed along the interior walls of the crawlspace.
This link provides an example of water penetrating a foundation wall from the crawlspace view.
Maybe your issue is puddling water in the crawlspace and you just can’t figure out how it is making its way into the crawlspace. This could be caused by the moisture moving under the footing and soaking into the dry soil in the crawlspace/basement as the water table rises. This is known as hydrostatic pressure. See image below:
Another issue may be caused by the humid air becoming trapped in the crawlspace, causing the insulation to absorb the moisture. The humid air outside enters the crawlspace through the foundation vents. These vents were once thought of as the solution to wet crawlspaces. We now know that they cause more problems than they solve. The longer humid periods throughout the year and the condensation from the duct work under our homes, causes condensation and blocking air flow, which magnify the challenge. In this case, a dehumidifier system may be needed to regulate the relative humidity in the crawlspace.
The bottom line is there are solutions are out there! Proper diagnosis is paramount. Implementing the solution correctly is close behind in importance.
Whether gutters need to be added/adjusted, proper drainage installed around the exterior foundation walls or installing a dehumidifier in the crawlspace, Noosa Pest Management can get your home back on track to a long healthy life! | <urn:uuid:8f641cbc-503b-41d7-ba27-4a61c5b908e9> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://noosapest.com/blog/what-does-the-rain-mean-for-my-crawlspace/ | 2022-09-26T12:20:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030334871.54/warc/CC-MAIN-20220926113251-20220926143251-00476.warc.gz | en | 0.93924 | 880 | [

In order to share both the agile mindset and the hands-on applications that Agile HR entails, we created a new explanimation video. Please enjoy! You can find the script under the video on this page.
Also, feel free to join the Agile HR Community on Linkedin. And take a look at our 3-day Agile HR training in New York City.
Agile HR – the new role of HR in agile organizations: the script
Agility is no longer a luxury: it might be the most important competence of organizations in our time. This means a fundamental shift in the way we think of HR. This is what we call Agile HR.
An agile organization often works with multidisciplinary, self-organizing teams. These teams can take on traditional HR responsibilities: team members look for job training together, recruit new colleagues together and sometimes even determine each other’s rewards.
All this change in organizations creates opportunities. With Agile HR, organizations are presented with the unique opportunity to make both the organization ánd HR more agile.
The are different way of doing this: if the HR-department is still a separate department, it can start working agile itself. By using Scrum, or Kanban, or Agile Portfolio Management, which visualizes which big HR-projects you work on, and makes transparent why the HR department makes certain decisions. HR will continuously learn and adapt, while collaborating with internal clients and stakeholders. This way, the HR department is always focused on the things that matter.
Then there are traditional HR instruments that are up for renewal. Like Strategic Workforce Planning, in which you make long term plans about the people and skills your organization needs. But that is still based on predictability and is often made in isolation by HR. Instead, you can try ‘Big Room Planning.’ Every 4 months, all teams share their quantitative and qualitative needs for new team members. And will act on it together. With Big Room Planning, managing the available skills and the recruitment of new people has become a responsibility of everyone in the organization.
The last way to implement agility in HR is for HR-professionals to take on new roles. As a ‘purpose-developer’, ‘trend watcher’ or ‘agile coach’, they help teams to improve their way of working, and make colleagues happier. Take the role of ‘Employee Experience Designer’ – someone who’s focused on improving the experience of the employee in the organization. The Employee Experience Designer ensures employees are serviced in a personal and delightful way, at every step on their journey through the organization.
In the end, agility is a way of thinking. It is not about controlling and prescribing, but about sensing and adapting. With a goal of delighting the customer, done by powerful, autonomous and happy teams. HR has a key role in spreading this way of thinking. That is why we wrote the Agile HR book, in which we share Agile HR practices and cases.

Iowa State picked an awful night to go 4-for-25 from the 3-point line.
In a contest where Kansas turned the basketball over 24 times compared to Iowa State’s eight, the Jayhawks still defeated the Cyclones by a 77-70 final.
Kansas’ two stud freshmen left their mark on Hilton Colisum. A guy who many are projecting to be the top pick in this summer’s NBA Draft, Andrew Wiggins, had 17 points to go with 18 rebounds. Meanwhile, the Cyclones simply didn’t have an answer for Joel Embiid, who went 7-for-8 from the floor to record 16 points and nine rebounds.
Iowa State was led by DeAndre Kane, whose ankle appeared to be fine. The senior guard had 21 points with eight rebounds.
Kansas out-rebounded Iowa State 53-36.
The loss dropped Iowa State to 14-2 and 2-2 in the Big 12. With the win, Kansas improved to 12-4 and 3-0 in league play.

My experience during the EdcampHome 3.0 time was, I didn’t attend.
Ok, that’s not true, I did attend, for about 15 minutes. The great thing about summer is our daughters are swimmers. After basketball, I’ve found swimming to be a great spectator sport, lots of drama in the pool, outstanding personal efforts, and in the end, it’s you against the clock. The problem with an outdoor season in Iowa, we have storms, which we did have one a while back and the meet that was cancelled happened to be rescheduled on the same day as EdcampHOME. *sigh* So, I got home, logged in, and found my home network wasn’t able to deal with Google Hangouts that night as I could not get into a session.
However, being the flexible, reflective, connected educator I am (bonus points for all those buzz words), I do have a few take aways:
1) This one is the biggest one – EdcampHOME is the PERFECT example of what flipped PD can look like. I didn’t make it and I feel bad about it, but as I go onto the website, each session was recorded for later viewing! There were two separate sessions and every one of them is here. Want to know more about coding? 25 minutes of viewed can help you learn more! A new 1:1 school? There are two different sessions dealing with that topic! Want to flip your classroom (heck yes!)? There were two or three sessions! If I can’t make it to a staff meeting, why can’t I click on the link where the meeting was recorded? Or why can an admin go through the big points, send it to us ahead of time, we watch, and come with questions? I love how this group models exactly what a flipped PD experience might look like. On top of that, because this is actually the third EdcampHOME, yes, you guessed it, all those sessions are on the web site too! Hours of teacher created ideas, thoughts, and discussion at our finger tips!
2) PLN building at it’s finest too! I’m a lover of Twitter (as you may have guess if you follow me), but Google+ certainly has it’s benefits. As I’d log in, I’d have teachers, administrators, educators adding me into their circles. While my Twitter PLN is wide ranging with educators, gardeners, authors, those in the whole food/slow food movement, and a few others, my PLN on Google+ is pretty narrowed on education. It’s more a Facebook flow and not to say that there still aren’t a wide range of posts that come up, I know logging into that, my focus is definitely on education. That’s certainly not a bad thing and in fact, I’ll log in to there to simply narrow my own focus.
3) Again, we are modeling what we’d expect of our students. I got home from the swim meet about 8:15 CST time, trying to get into the last session at 8:30. That means 9:30 P.M., EST, which means there are some teachers giving up their summer evenings that could have been spent sipping their adult beverages, reading a book on the deck who are instead taking an active role in their own learning. There was no stipend, no release time, no flex time involved. It’s events like this which make me proud of our profession and how much time we spend bettering ourselves for our students. We casually toss around “what’s best for students”, but knowing there were dozens and dozens of teachers giving freely of their time,that’s huge. Even afterwards, people like me, who didn’t get to participate live can use the resources and people to help better our classrooms.
From what I’ve read, the live event was great. I’ll keep trying to make one happen, but until then, I know that as long as this event continues, there will be hours of information that I can take in at my own pace.
Isn’t that what we want anyway? Students learning what they need when they need it?

Managed Services Enabling Successful Banking Experience
Posted On: June 21, 2019
The financial institutions have adapted brand new avatar, as the world transforms from brick and mortar to everything digital. Be it delivering multiple new and innovative financial services with an anytime-anywhere approach, or automating numerous business processes for onboarding, payment processing, etc, digitization has totally revamped the way banking and financial services industry works.
Business Process Management helps in transforming banks by providing better visibility and control of its critical processes, terminating errors, and enabling fast response time to customers. The banking and financial services industry (BFSI) is already driving BPM both at the domestic as well as at a global level and it is said that BPM projects in BFSI will be big money-spinners. As per a report by the Indian Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), BFSI is a key business vertical for the IT-BPM industry. Export revenue from the vertical stood at around US $62.40 billion in FY 2017, accounting for 53% of total IT-BPM exports from India.
Customer experience plays a vital role in brand’s advocacy. And managing the business to the core is even more important when businesses are getting technology oriented. So, how firmly we can make our services more likable for customers should also be well defined. Take a look:
Digital banking services are interactive and deliver a superior customer experience. By motivating customers to interact and share the experiences, you will be able to drive loyalty as well as brand awareness. Keys to improving customer engagement –
- Speak to your customers – Poor support phone calls can result in negative CX, so for building customer engagement and loyalty, one needs to speak thoroughly to customers. One really need quick and efficient management to find out information related to queries.
- Map Customer Journey –Monitoring end-to-end customer journey is an effective way to analyze all touch points where you engage your customers.
In financial institutions, customer service and agility are major concerns. Your response to customer queries should be clear and favorable in such a way that customers could utilize your brand and services happily. A customer service representative needs to have interactive Skills. In a time where everything has moved beyond traditional infrastructure, business is consistently on a search for empowered employees who can deliver a solution to queries of the clients with critical thinking. Technical skills combined with rich communication skills give a great competitive advantage to businesses. Customer service representatives should have good communication skills and problem-solving abilities.
For example, if a banking customer contacts the support team when he is not able to do the transaction through phone; he will only get a perfect resolution when the support team is dedicated towards a brand and its procedures.
To increase customer loyalty and provide more value to the experience, banks need to meet rising consumer expectations with a real-time engagement strategy which drive value for both customers and banks. With interactions moving to digital, financial institutions need good strategies to unlock user-level data across all channels in order to serve customers pro-actively. With mobile-app support management, you can indulge your customers in real-time communication. Lack of real-time communication or delays in fixing issues can lead to negative reviews or even removal of the app, however, with live chat, voice calls and other modes of real-time communication help in increasing app engagement and in turning passive users into active ones.
When we talk about industries going digital, the first thing comes to our mind is engaging with customers over multiple channels. Omnichannel strategy can help any business to locate customers, interact with them and close queries briskly. Having support from business across preferred touch points, customers feel satisfied with services.
Financial institutions need to put their customers at priority in order to expand revenue while providing efficient resolutions. Business Process Management permits financial institutions to analyze workflow and initiate best practices to support their products and services efficiently. It helps optimize business processes, increase revenue, and provide a greater competitive advantage.
To conclude with, BPM enables greater efficiency and reduces OPEX with existing applications and procedures. It accelerates client management processes and makes the decision making easier. While accelerating value in customer service, KocharTech is one of the largest technology enablers assisting brands in creating new opportunities to drive revenue in business.

WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Senators Ben Cardin (D-Md.) and Tim Scott (R-S.C.), members of the Finance subcommittee on Health Care, introduced the REACH Act. This legislation codifies the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) REACH program, which supports locally tailored and collaborative projects aimed at combating health disparities, with a particular emphasis on chronic disease prevention and response efforts.
“The COVID-19 pandemic has further exposed the public health and economic disparities in communities of color,” said Senator Cardin. “We must take action to address racial inequities in the U.S. health system to help these communities overcome barriers to accessing high quality health care. The REACH Act bolsters CDC’s current efforts to address health disparities by establishing sustainable funding to eliminate racial and ethnic health disparities.”
“The current pandemic has highlighted so many disparities that impact communities of color, including those in our healthcare system,” said Senator Tim Scott. “It’s important that our most vulnerable Americans are not being left behind. I am optimistic that we can reduce these inequities in our underserved neighborhoods, and I look forward to my colleagues supporting this legislation.”
If passed, the REACH Act would codify the REACH program by authorizing grants, contracts, and cooperative agreements to support projects aimed at enhancing health outcomes, preventing and managing chronic conditions, and reducing disparities faced by racial and ethnic minority populations. The bill would condition funding eligibility on a proven track record of leveraging community-based coalitions, along with a locally tailored needs assessment and the ability to effectively and immediately deploy evidence-based and evidence-informed strategies to achieve meaningful results. With respect to racial and ethnic health disparities, grantees would also work to increase the workforce of health care and public health professionals from underrepresented populations, support locally-tailored strategies to prevent and manage chronic health conditions, and enhance capacity to prevent and respond to infectious disease outbreaks through outreach, education, and other relevant activities. The REACH Act includes authorization of $70 million for each of fiscal years 2021-25.
According to CDC, as a result of the REACH program, more than 2.9 million individuals have benefited from improved access to healthy foods and beverages; roughly 1.4 million people have experienced more opportunities to be physically active, and approximately 830,000 individuals have gained access to local chronic disease management programs.

Motorola, Inc. has devised two new products to help companies maintain and manage their wireless local area network (LAN) systems. Offered under the name SMART RF (for Self-Monitoring at Run Time Radio Frequency), the tool allows I.T. managers to remotely analyze and perform network testing from a central location. They can also take advantage of new "self-healing" features for easier network management and improved wireless LAN performance. Motorola's AirDefense Advanced Troubleshooting system identifies wireless LAN configuration issues that impact on business applications. It helps users to reduce or eliminate bottlenecks and minimize downtime across the network, the company said. New features include an Access Point Connectivity Testing Module, which proactively identifies connectivity problems with periodic end-to-end wireless network testing, initiated over the air by a wireless sensor emulating a client. In addition, a Connectivity Troubleshooting Tool allows help-desk staff to analyze and resolve wireless client-connectivity issues, or escalate trouble tickets without the need for extensive wireless expertise.

Students at Cottonwood High School l let their voices be heard, their dance moves be seen, and their antics displayed all in the name of charity.
As part of the school’s efforts to raise funds for the Volunteers of America Homeless Youth Resource Center, Cottonwood put on an unofficial talent show where students contributed money in support of their favorite peer act.
Duets sang melodious tunes, dancers wowed the crowd, student body officers were auctioned off for dates, and an all-male drill team performed a number to the amused embarrassment of faculty members.
Between each performance members of student government walked the aisles with small buckets to collect cash contributions, which totalled more than $2,000. In response to the success of the assembly, Cottonwood High math teacher Rita Heagren agreed to shave her head in front of the student body.
Subsequent activities throughout the day also pushed Cottonwood toward their goal of raising $10,000 for the Center before winter break. | <urn:uuid:7a13bb90-70e6-418c-bd6a-353c2d2acf47> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://www.graniteschools.org/blog/2013/12/09/high-school-students-take-to-the-stage-to-raise-money-for-homeless-youth/ | 2022-10-01T20:54:11Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030336921.76/warc/CC-MAIN-20221001195125-20221001225125-00476.warc.gz | en | 0.949678 | 204 | [

Grateful Dead - Dick's Picks Vol 34 - Community War Memorial, Rochester, NY 11/5/77 (Limited Edtion 180 Gram 6LP)
If the saga of the Grateful Dead is a long strange trip, then we've definitely been along for part of the ride! First, we brought you the entire Dick's Picks series of live concerts on CD, all 36 volumes of it, many of them never before available at retail. Then we began putting out the Road Trips series, none of which has ever been in stores before. But now, dear Deadheads and Real Goners, the time has come to take the next step in our evolution as a key source for rare Grateful Dead recordings. It's time to cross...the vinyl frontier with the6-LP set, Grateful Dead: Dick's Picks Vol. 34--Rochester, NY 11/5/77!
That's right...we are finally putting Dick's Picks on vinyl, and, boy, have we picked the right one. How do we know? You told us! This was by far the best-selling volume on CD from our reissue campaign. And no wonder, it's from that magical year of 1977, with fiery performances of "Big River," "Jack Straw," "Deal," and "Eyes of the World" powered by a particularly lively Phil Lesh. But for many the highlight will be one of the truly great performances of "The Other One" in the Grateful Dead catalog, 12 minutes of surging intensity and building crescendos.
This Pick also included highlights from a 11/2/77 Toronto show, including a great medley of "Estimated Prophet"/"St. Stephen"/"Truckin'"/"Around and Around" (we've reconfigured the track listing to put all the bonus tracks at the end of the set for a seamless concert experience). Definitely a great place to begin our journey into the realm of Grateful Dead vinyl! Such a stellar performance deserves a great package with great sound.
For this Real Gone release, we've enlisted David Glasser at Airshow Mastering to remaster the set from the original tapes for vinyl. David's had a long association with the Dead; he mastered the soundtrack to the Long Strange Trip documentary among many other projects. For lacquer cutting, we turned to John Golden at Golden Mastering. John has worked with artists as far-ranging as Jonathan Wilson, Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, and Soundgarden among many others, and he is our go-to engineer for lacquer cutting. The test pressings were approved by David Glasser, the Grateful Dead's resident audiovisual archivist David Lemieux, and Gordon Anderson from Real Gone. We've pressed the set up on 180-gram vinyl for maximum fidelity, too. And we even scrapped the first pressing because it wasn't up to our quality standards. As for the packaging, we've placed all six LPs inside a hardshell box adorned with the original front cover and a custom back cover featuring a great shot of Jerry Garcia from the show. Inside, you'll find a 4-page, LP-sized, full-color insert offering photos from the original package along with the original trippy graphics. Each of these limited-edition sets is hand-numbered all the way up to 1500. This set will not be repressed once we run out of the 1500 limited edition copies.

In this first edition of Throw Back Thursday, we will be looking back at point guard Chris Wright. The Bowie, MD native played his high school basketball at St. John’s College High School (DC).
During his time playing for the Cadets, Wright was one of the top, if not the top player in the Washington, DC area. When he was a sophomore and junior, Chris averaged 22 points a game.
In 2007 which was Wright’s senior year, he averaged 30.5 points, 4.9 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game. He led St. John’s to a 24-9 record and helped them make an appearance in the WCAC Championship game where they lost to DeMatha.
At the end of the season, Wright was named DC Gatorade Player of the Year. He played in the McDonald’s All-American Game and won the three-point contest. Wright also made an appearance in the Jordan Brand Classic.
He is the all-time scoring leader at St. John’s with 2, 580 career points. Wright was the second high school player from the area to receive three Washington Post All-Met selection honors. The first player to do it was NBA Hall of Famer and DeMatha alumni Adrian Dantley.
Wright was listed as a four-star prospect by 247sports.com. He was ranked as the No. 1 player in Washington, DC and the No. 8 point guard in the nation. Chris ended up going to play college ball for John Thompson III and Georgetown. But before he committed, he had offers from schools like Maryland, DePaul, Villanova, NC State and Pittsburgh.
Chris played four years and 110 career games at Georgetown. He averaged 12.4 points and four assists per game. He scored a career high 34 points against Harvard in 2009 and dished 12 assist against Appalachian St and Coastal Carolina in 2010.
After college, Wright signed to play for the Olin Edirne in the Turkish Basketball League. In 2012, Chris signed a contract with the New Orleans Hornets but never made the roster. He then went to play D-League basketball for the Iowa Energy.
Wright averaged 15.3 points per game in his D-League career and made an appearance in the D-League All-Star in 2013. Chris went back to the NBA on March 13, 2013 as he signed a 10-day contract with the Dallas Mavericks. Wright played for Iowa Energy once again in 2014 and is now playing for Hapoel Holon of Israel. | <urn:uuid:d6e49987-f0ad-46af-a72d-ff02620430e0> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://insidethelockerroom.net/2016/04/14/tbt-former-mcdonalds-all-american-and-st-johns-guard-chris-wright/ | 2022-10-04T14:01:39Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337504.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20221004121345-20221004151345-00476.warc.gz | en | 0.982365 | 528 | [

My, the soap world is whirling with news. On the heels of Days of Our Lives delivering pink slips to Louise Sorel (Vivian) and Crystal Chappell (Carly), TVLine has learned that Nadia Bjorlin is leaving the NBC sudser when her contract expires later this summer.
“It’s a bittersweet moment for me, but fortunately I have been at these crossroads before, and I’ve always rose to the challenge in everything I pursued,” Bjorlin tells TVLine. “I will miss the cast and crew dearly, and they — including [executive producer] Ken Corday — will always be considered family to me. At the same time, I am excited for where this next chapter in my life takes me.”
In fact, Bjorlin already has her next gig lined up — a movie that she starts filming on August 1, the day before her birthday (and, just as importantly, the day of mine).
Bjorlin created the role of Chloe in 1999, worked on and off contract in 2004 and ’05, and then rejoined the cast as a regular in late 2007. Throughout her Days run, Bjorlin has made time for other projects, including the drag-racing movie Redline, guest gigs on NCIS and Two and a Half Men, and the web soap Venice. She also threw her lasso into the ring for NBC’s Wonder Woman pilot, but… well, let’s chalk that up as a bullet dodged.
Sorel said in an interview with TV Guide Magazine that the Days cast shake-up is designed to reinvigorate one of TV’s six (and soon to be four) remaining sudsers while also freeing up some coin to finance the summertime return of Drake Hogestyn and Deidre Hall (as John and Marlena). As Corday told Digest, “You will see … in the neighborhood of six characters leave Salem and five or six characters return or come to Salem, leading up to a huge September” — all at the hands of new headwriters/Passions alums Marlene McPherson and Darrell Ray Thomas. | <urn:uuid:f85641b6-075a-438f-9ad2-01bf7c049391> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://tvline.com/2011/06/07/soaps-scoop-nadia-bjorlins-days-are-over/ | 2022-10-04T13:47:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337504.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20221004121345-20221004151345-00476.warc.gz | en | 0.949842 | 463 | [

Three tattooers got together and had an idea for a tattoo shop that’s not really a tattoo shop. In fact, it’s more than that.
Those artists are Tanner Ramsey (Los Angeles CA), Cheyenne Sawyer (Portland OR), and Blake Wernli (Vista CA), and because they all live in different cities, they thought it might be nice to come together under one roof where they could tattoo but also showcase and sell all the other stuff they dig: original artwork, zines, music, clothes and, in the words of Tanner, ‘literally anything else we end up making.’ Flower Shop is like three imaginations shaken up in a box, and we had a chat with Tanner to find out more.
Tanner, in a nutshell, what is Flower Shop?
In short, Flower Shop is a collaborative art endeavor and an evolving experience that Cheyenne, Blake and I have curated together. We wanted to try and create our ideal artistic environment, one that has the flexibility to change and grow as we do. We all live in different cities, so we had the idea to take tattooing out of the conventional tattoo shop. We wanted to merge it with the greater art scene and make it a more immersive, community-inclusive experience.
And there are three brains behind it?
Yeah. Blake Wernli, Cheyenne Sawyer, and me, Tanner Ramsey.
How did you go with the name Flower Shop?
It’s a bit of a riff of the street name of our location, Rose Ave. in Venice. We added ‘shop’ to it so it can umbrella more than just tattooing. We sell merchandise, original artwork, and people can come and go as they please. We didn’t want it to explicitly say tattoo in the name, because we want the experience to be broader than that.
Why now, why Venice, and why you guys?
Well, it’s us because we all wanted to create something together instead of going to each other’s shops to tattoo. Now seemed like the perfect time to bring the community together since we had all experienced so much isolation over the past two years. Venice was the perfect starting place because skate and surf culture is influential and essential to us. We all grew up with strong ties to Southern California and all that comes with it, so for us to begin here seemed like the perfect idea.
Where is the pop-up housed?
413 Rose Ave, Venice, currently. We would love to expand and take it to different spaces around the country, maybe even the world.
Cool. And is this your first time doing a pop-up?
It is! It’s been a learning experience, and we’re excited to bring more creatives in as it evolves. There are unlimited possibilities when you get enough creatives together in a shop with no boundaries, and we’re excited to keep pushing as we grow.
Is there going to be a big opening party and can I come?
Saturday, June 25th noon till midnight. Food, drinks, DJ, good people, good times. Come, and tell all your friends! Also, Ollie told me you were a big fan of Drab Majesty?
Yeah, I am!
Alex from the band is DJing at the party on the 25th. Thought you would be hyped on that.
Flower Shop pops up @ 421 Rose Avenue Venice, CA, from June 20 to June 30. | <urn:uuid:8cd99276-f321-42cb-b7cb-e9c7964e3755> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://www.monsterchildren.com/flower-shop-more-than-a-tattoo-spot/ | 2022-10-04T13:55:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337504.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20221004121345-20221004151345-00476.warc.gz | en | 0.962394 | 729 | [

I usually make my own christmas cards but some years they are more ambitious than others. Short of time this year, so I made a stencil and then got going with a bit of a production line. I didn't have any coloured paper so had to wash some paper with blue and red for background. The stencil image is just done in white acrylic.
The stencil. I like old fashioned stencil card. Especially the lovely smell!
The finished cards before adding a message inside.
We have two new granddaughters - Molly and Sophia. I thought I would make them each a reminder of their initial.
They are both made in the same way. First I doodled the appropriate letter onto some fabric previously hand-dyed, then painted in as much as I felt like. Then I stitched using both free machining and some of the embroidery patterns already on my sewing machine. I think they are quite cute!
Both finished and ready to go.
The sun was shining too!
I love textiles and especially quilting. | <urn:uuid:591daa92-c87b-4fc8-94e1-677f19627bd9> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://www.stephaniecrawfordquilter.com/blog/archives/12-2014 | 2022-10-04T14:30:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337504.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20221004121345-20221004151345-00476.warc.gz | en | 0.968808 | 254 | [

Man jailed for sexual assault on care home OAP, 88
A MAN who sexually assaulted an elderly woman in a care home is today behind bars. Reginald Wynne Griffiths, 56, was spotted by a member of staff kissing and fondling the 88-year-old pensioner, who was physically infirm and suffered from dementia.
He denied the offence but was found guilty by a jury at Caernarfon Crown Court last month.
Jailing him for two years yesterday, Judge Merfyn Hughes QC said: “She was in what everyone would have supposed was a place of safety.
“What you did was nothing other than a shocking and disturbing attack on a defenceless old lady.”
Griffiths, of Ffordd Alban, Tywyn, must also register as a sex offender for 10 years.
He showed no emotion as he was sentenced and led away from the dock to the cells.
The attack took place in June 2008 and the woman died this January. The judge added: “The aggravating features are of course her great age and vulnerability. It’s not possible to know how your offending affected her during the last months of her life.”
Prosecutor Karl Scholz said the pensioner had been a resident at the home in Gwynedd, and Griffiths had been visiting another resident. The court heard Griffiths had been warned he was not to visit any other person in the home “without the express permission” of staff.
But he went into a room where he believed the woman would be sitting alone. “He then carried out the attack,” said Mr Scholz. A member of staff saw what was going on and alerted others.
The victim’s eyesight and hearing were poor and she was described as being an “extremely vulnerable lady”. She did tell Griffiths to stop what he was doing, but: “She would have been unable to do anything to prevent you,” the judge remarked.
The jury heard that in 2006 there was a probe into an allegation of an indecent assault on another resident at the home, and three visitors, including Griffiths, were all potential suspects. No charges were brought.
A Gwynedd Council spokesman said: “The council has procedures to ensure, as much as is reasonably possible, the safety of all council care home residents. These include the monitoring of visitors when they enter our residential homes. In accordance with the council’s protection of vulnerable adults policy, this incident was investigated by a multi-agency team which included social services and North Wales Police. Safety procedures at the home were thoroughly reviewed. The council is satisfied it has appropriate measures in place to safeguard residents.” | <urn:uuid:0424d657-a2a3-490c-8b7d-daf54db2451f> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://careappointments.com/care-news/wales/77788/man-jailed-for-sexual-assault-on-care-home-oap-88/ | 2022-10-05T22:47:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337668.62/warc/CC-MAIN-20221005203530-20221005233530-00476.warc.gz | en | 0.991306 | 567 | [

Geckos are small, mostly carnivorous lizards that have a wide distribution, found on every continent except Antarctica. Belonging to the infraorderGekkota, geckos are found in warm climates throughout the world. They range from 1.6 to 60 centimetres (0.6 to 23.6 inches).
Geckos are unique among lizards for their vocalisations, which differ from species to species. Most geckos in the family Gekkonidae use chirping or clicking sounds in their social interactions. Tokay geckos (Gekko gecko) are known for their loud mating calls, and some other species are capable of making hissing noises when alarmed or threatened. They are the most species-rich group of lizards, with about 1,500 different species worldwide. The New Latingekko and English 'gecko' stem from the Indonesian-Malaygēkoq, which is imitative of sounds that some species make.
All geckos, except species in the family Eublepharidae lack eyelids; instead, the outer surface of the eyeball has a transparent membrane, the cornea. They have a fixed lens within each iris that enlarges in darkness to let in more light. Since they cannot blink, species without eyelids generally lick their own corneas when they need to clear them of dust and dirt, in order to keep them clean and moist.
Unlike most lizards, geckos are usually nocturnal and have excellent night vision; their colour vision in low light is 350 times more sensitive than human eyes. The nocturnal geckos evolved from diurnal species, which had lost the rod cells from their eyes. The gecko eye, therefore, modified its cone cells that increased in size into different types, both single and double. Three different photo-pigments have been retained, and are sensitive to ultraviolet, blue, and green. They also use a multifocal optical system that allows them to generate a sharp image for at least two different depths. While most gecko species are nocturnal, some species are diurnal and active during the day, which has evolved multiple times independently.
Many species are well known for their specialised toe pads, which enable them to grab and climb onto smooth and vertical surfaces, and even cross indoor ceilings with ease. Geckos are well known to people who live in warm regions of the world, where several species make their home inside human habitations. These, for example the house gecko, become part of the indoor menagerie and are often welcomed, as they feed on insectpests; including moths and mosquitoes. Like most lizards, geckos can lose their tails in defence, a process called autotomy; the predator may attack the wriggling tail, allowing the gecko to escape.
Like other reptiles, geckos are ectothermic, producing very little metabolic heat. Essentially, a gecko's body temperature is dependent on its environment. Also, to accomplish their main functions; such as locomotion, feeding, reproduction, etc., geckos must have a relatively elevated temperature.
Shedding or molting
Video of leopard gecko shedding skin
All geckos shed their skin at fairly regular intervals, with species differing in timing and method. Leopard geckos shed at about two- to four-week intervals. The presence of moisture aids in the shedding. When shedding begins, the gecko speeds the process by detaching the loose skin from its body and eating it. For young geckos, shedding occurs more frequently, once a week, but when they are fully grown, they shed once every one to two months.
Close-up of the underside of a gecko's foot as it walks on vertical glass
About 60% of gecko species have adhesive toe pads which allow them to adhere to most surfaces without the use of liquids or surface tension. Such pads have been gained and lost repeatedly over the course of gecko evolution. Adhesive toepads evolved independently in about eleven different gecko lineages, and were lost in at least nine lineages.
It was previously thought that the spatula-shaped setae arranged in lamellae on gecko footpads enable attractive van der Waals' forces (the weakest of the weak chemical forces) between the β-keratin lamellae / setae / spatulae structures and the surface. These van der Waals interactions involve no fluids; in theory, a boot made of synthetic setae would adhere as easily to the surface of the International Space Station as it would to a living-room wall, although adhesion varies with humidity. However, a recent study suggests that gecko adhesion is in fact mainly determined by electrostatic interaction (caused by contact electrification), not van der Waals or capillary forces.
The setae on the feet of geckos are also self-cleaning, and usually remove any clogging dirt within a few steps.Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), which has very low surface energy, is more difficult for geckos to adhere to than many other surfaces.
Gecko adhesion is typically improved by higher humidity, even on hydrophobic surfaces, yet is reduced under conditions of complete immersion in water. The role of water in that system is under discussion, yet recent experiments agree that the presence of molecular water layers (water molecules carry a very large dipole moment) on the setae, as well as on the surface, increase the surface energy of both, therefore the energy gain in getting these surfaces in contact is enlarged, which results in an increased gecko adhesion force. Moreover, the elastic properties of the b-keratin change with water uptake.
Gecko toes seem to be double jointed, but this is a misnomer, and is properly called digital hyperextension. Gecko toes can hyperextend in the opposite direction from human fingers and toes. This allows them to overcome the van der Waals force by peeling their toes off surfaces from the tips inward. In essence, by this peeling action, the gecko separates spatula by spatula from the surface, so for each spatula separation, only some force necessary. (The process is similar to removing Scotch Tape from a surface.)
Geckos' toes operate well below their full attractive capabilities most of the time, because the margin for error is great depending upon the surface roughness, and therefore the number of setae in contact with that surface.
Use of small van der Waals force requires very large surface areas; every square millimetre of a gecko's footpad contains about 14,000 hair-like setae. Each seta has a diameter of 5 μm. Human hair varies from 18 to 180 μm, so the cross-sectional area of a human hair is equivalent to 12 to 1300 setae. Each seta is in turn tipped with between 100 and 1,000 spatulae. Each spatula is 0.2 μm long (one five-millionth of a metre), or just below the wavelength of visible light.
The setae of a typical mature 70-gram (2.5-ounce) gecko would be capable of supporting a weight of 133 kilograms (293 pounds): each spatula can exert an adhesive force of 5 to 25 nN. The exact value of the adhesion force of a spatula varies with the surface energy of the substrate to which it adheres. Recent studies have moreover shown that the component of the surface energy derived from long-range forces, such as van der Waals forces, depends on the material's structure below the outermost atomic layers (up to 100 nm beneath the surface); taking that into account, the adhesive strength can be inferred.
Apart from the setae, phospholipids; fatty substances produced naturally in their bodies, also come into play. These lipids lubricate the setae and allow the gecko to detach its foot before the next step.
The origin of gecko adhesion likely started as simple modifications to the epidermis on the underside of the toes. This was recently discovered in the genus Gonatodes from South America. Simple elaborations of the epidermal spinules into setae have enabled Gonatodes humeralis to climb smooth surfaces and sleep on smooth leaves.
Biomimetic technologies designed to mimic gecko adhesion could produce reusable self-cleaning dry adhesives with many applications. Development effort is being put into these technologies, but manufacturing synthetic setae is not a trivial material design task.
Gecko skin does not generally bear scales, but appears at a macro scale as a papillose surface, which is made from hair-like protuberances developed across the entire body. These confer superhydrophobicity, and the unique design of the hair confers a profound antimicrobial action. These protuberances are very small, up to 4 microns in length, and tapering to a point. Gecko skin has been observed to have an anti-bacterial property, killing gram-negative bacteria when they come in contact with the skin.
The mossy leaf-tailed gecko of Madagascar, U. sikorae, has coloration developed as camouflage, most being greyish brown to black, or greenish brown, with various markings meant to resemble tree bark; down to the lichens and moss found on the bark. It also has flaps of skin, running the length of its body, head and limbs, known as the dermal flap, which it can lay against the tree during the day, scattering shadows, and making its outline practically invisible.
Geckos are polyphyodonts, and able to replace each of their 100 teeth every 3 to 4 months. Next to the full grown tooth there is a small replacement tooth developing from the odontogenicstem cell in the dental lamina. The formation of the teeth is pleurodont; they are fused (ankylosed) by their sides to the inner surface of the jaw bones.
This formation is common in all species in the order Squamata.
Taxonomy and classification
Pores on the skin are often used in classification.
Several species of lizard from the Late Jurassic have been considered early relatives of geckos, the most prominent and most well supported being the arboreal Eichstaettisaurus from the Late Jurassic of Germany. Norellius from the Early Cretaceous of Mongolia is also usually placed as a close relative of geckos. The oldest known fossils of modern geckos are from the mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber of Myanmar (including Cretaceogekko), around 100 million years old, which have adhesive pads on the feet similar to those of living geckos.
Eublepharis macularius, the leopard gecko, is the most common gecko kept as a pet; it does not have adhesive toe pads and cannot climb the glass of a vivarium.
Gehyra mutilata (Pteropus mutilatus), the stump-toed gecko, is able to vary its color from very light to very dark to camouflage itself; this gecko is at home in the wild, as well as in residential areas.
Gekko gecko, the Tokay gecko, is a large, common, Southeast Asian gecko known for its aggressive temperament, loud mating calls, and bright markings.
Hemidactylus frenatus, the common house gecko, thrives around people and human habitation structures in the tropics and subtropics worldwide.
Hemidactylus garnotii, the Indo-Pacific gecko, is found in houses throughout the tropics, and has become an invasive species of concern in Florida and Georgia in the US.
Hemidactylus mabouia, the tropical house gecko, Afro-American house gecko, or cosmopolitan house gecko, is a species of house gecko native to sub-Saharan Africa and also currently found in North, Central, and South America and the Caribbean.
Ptychozoon is a genus of arboreal geckos from Southeast Asia also known as flying or parachute geckos; they have wing-like flaps from the neck to the upper leg to help them conceal themselves on trees and provide lift while jumping.
This section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it. (February 2020)
Most geckos lay a small clutch of eggs, a few are live-bearing and a few can reproduce asexually via parthenogenesis. Geckos also have a large diversity of sex-determining mechanisms including temperature-dependent sex determination and both XX/XY and ZZ/ZW sex chromosomes with multiple transitions among them over evolutionary time.
Madagascar day geckos engage in a mating ritual in which sexually mature males produce a waxy substance from pores on the back of their legs. Males approach females with a head swaying motion along with rapid tongue flicking in the female.

Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology. 21 (12–13): 1317–1341. doi:10.1163/156856107782328399. S2CID53470787. Gecko "feet and toes are a hierarchical system of complex structures consisting of lamellae, setae, and spatulae. The distinguishing characteristics of the gecko adhesion system have been described [as] (1) anisotropic attachment, (2) high pulloff force to preload ratio, (3) low detachment force, (4) material independence, (5) self-cleaning, (6) antiself sticking and (7) nonsticky default state. ... The gecko's adhesive structures are made from ß-keratin (modulus of elasticity [about] 2 GPa). Such a stiff material is not inherently sticky; however, because of the gecko adhesive's hierarchical nature and extremely small distal features (spatulae are [about] 200 nm in size), the gecko's foot is able to intimately conform to the surface and generate significant attraction using van der Waals forces.

Dubai e-Government gets Dh1.5bn in e-payments
Dubai eGovernment has reported a significant increase in the adoption of electronic services in 2009 compared with the previous year.
About Dh1.5 billion was collected from 1.4 million transactions that were processed in 2009 using Dubai eGovernment's electronic payment gateway, a secure platform for online payments. This represents an increase of Dh500 million over the previous year in which Dubai eGovernment collected Dh1bn from a million transactions.
The feat was achieved despite the fact that the number of departments adopting the electronic payment gateway in 2009 remained the same – at 22.
"Our strategy is to establish a centralised platform in providing e-services as we are strongly committed to supporting the gradual digital transformation of Dubai and the entire UAE," said Director-General Ahmed bin Humaidan. "This strategy contributes to the development of innovative channels that assist government departments in providing e-services to customers in a smooth, easy and effective manner.
"It also strengthens communication lines and collaboration among government departments in Dubai, with the understanding that each department plays an important role in satisfying the needs and requirements of customers, whether UAE Nationals or residents of Dubai.
"The positive results that we achieved in 2009 reflect the trust and confidence of the public in Dubai e-Government. We are also keen on developing new solutions and e-services and cultivating best."
He said the department's plans and strategies for 2010 included the continued development of e-service platforms and increasing the level of efficiency of e-services to satisfy the expectations of customers, whether government departments, individuals or companies.
"In addition, we aim to include more government departments and agencies in Dubai and achieve integration in the delivery of services through a unified platform, which we believe will contribute significantly to realising the Dubai Strategic Plan 2015."
The payment service allows customers to process payments through three methods: credit cards, the e-dirham and direct debit from the customer's account. This saves time while helping reduce long queues in government departments.
Currently, direct debit from the customer's account is available at three national banks – Commercial Bank of Dubai, Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank and Union National Bank.

Background: New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman was a rising Democrat star, rumored to be a future front-runner for the NY Governor and possibly a future presidential candidate. His career is now in ruins – couldn’t happen to a nicer guy. This is a man who saw himself as a crusader against all things Trump, filing suits against numerous Trump policies over things where I claim he had no jurisdiction. This is a man who threatened oil companies and their executives over so-called “climate change”. Pick a progressive cause and he was at the center of it. He held himself out to be a defender of women and a leader in the “MeToo” movement. Well, instead of fighting FOR women he apparently likes to simply FIGHT women. Four have come forward documenting his domestic abuse and more are certain to follow.
I always thought this guy was a power-mad scumbag and now we know it is true. Add “hypocrite of the year” to his title now.
Kudos to Ronan Farrow for first taking down Harvey Weinstein and now this rat. Farrow may be the only honest leftist (or maybe we can call him a liberal) on the planet. What he is doing shows a lot of guts. Dozens of people have been covering for these powerful progressives. | <urn:uuid:bcf20555-5517-48c2-8a35-dcbd3ec2a7b3> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://truthfreedomprosperity.com/2018/05/09/progressive-activist-sjw-feminist-new-york-ag-beats-women/ | 2022-10-07T06:58:05Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030337971.74/warc/CC-MAIN-20221007045521-20221007075521-00476.warc.gz | en | 0.980661 | 271 | [

Windows Server Backup: 6 Important Things You Need To Know
In light of recent global cyber attacks, businesses have begun concerning themselves with windows data protection, more so than before. The headlines from all over the internet about WannaCry have started a panic concerning the risks of unprotected data. Unfortunately, many companies have not been protecting critical information from malicious software and data breaches. Denial of service attacks and other natural or human-made disasters will cause mistrust between companies and clients, so we suggest getting data protection in the form of a server backup.
A windows data breach significantly impacts a business’s day-to-day revenue flow and reputation, which causes a domino effect of consequences. Any loss of server data, either temporarily or permanently, leads to significant fines for companies that operate in highly regulated industries. And we all know employees and clients don’t always understand the importance of staying up to date with their protection plans, but that’s why you need an expert. Data protection for windows servers has been exceedingly popular and successful among the biggest corporations and businesses because it can be trusted, and it’s reliable.
As vulnerable businesses explore options to safeguard their organizations, most quickly discover that they simply don’t have the in-house expertise, technology, or time required to build and manage a disaster recovery strategy. Therefore, when faced with the arduous task of creating a recovery strategy for lost data, a business will often turn to their trusted managed services provider (MSP) for help protecting their windows server data and mitigating potential revenue loss.
Windows server data protection services can sometimes seem like an extension or an add-on. For many people unfamiliar with technological software and website building, making a stronghold against information breaches is an afterthought because the ease and flow of digital information are seemingly safe within the confines of their devices. However, the frequency with which these cyber attacks have occurred should be motive enough to push individuals and business to build safeguards before the disaster strikes. If you’re still not convinced to back up your server with protection hardware, below are six more extraordinary benefits:
Agnostic Operating System
The best part about new technology is that it has become more user friendly. Speaking to a computer is not as complex or alien as it used to be. However, there are still struggles to getting a new device; learning a new operating system every time we get a new computer can be tedious. Though, for the most part, this won’t change, their are ways to smooth out the transitions from old devices to new ones. By getting a sophisticated windows system backup you ensure that your hardware is consistent with the rest of the office, as well as being installed correctly. This sure fire method, perfected by Storage Guardian over the last two decades, is not tied to an operating system, allowing you to restore any Windows OS. Agnostic systems also shorten the time it takes to get back to work by easily restoring data.
Boost your company’s revenue
Building a long-term relationship with your customer is important in today’s Tech driven market. Not only do long-term managed server data protection contracts provide you with a predictable and stable recurring revenue stream, but they also promote you as your customer’s trusted disaster recovery expert. This trust allows you to offer additional services with increased revenue potential. One of those value-added options is the cloud-based Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS). When your server data protection software includes built-in analytics that can pinpoint an individual customer’s Recovery Point Objective (RPO) and Recovery Time Objective (RTO), you will have the knowledge required to satisfy that customer with a premium DRaaS solution that will enable their business to return to operations in minutes instead of days.
Storage Guardian outlines this sophisticated process in the video below.
Help retain current customers
Businesses today are looking to increase efficiency by cultivating relationships and partnerships within the same companies, instead of dealing with multiple Information Technology (IT) vendors. The more sophisticated services you can offer, including critically managed server data protection services, the more you increase the chance of maintaining a partnership with your customer. Therefore, giving your clients the windows server data protection before they have a cyber attack showcases your credibility as a business which aims to protect, rather than merely increase revenue. After all, server data protection is like insurance; it should be offered in case of an accident and not in the aftermath of one.
Protect your reputation
Chances are, if a windows server data loss occurs, you will become a scapegoat for the company. Regardless of actual fault, a company will often blame the innocent because the cyber attacker is untraceable. In such a case, proactively educating your customers about the risks they face and proactively offering server data protection services helps shield your organization from any insinuation of culpability should disaster strike. When using logic and emotions to sway your clients to buy your services fails you, a credible argument will always make headway. In the case of windows server data protection services, being a reliable resource for information is necessary to advise your customers about the actual frequency and consequences of electronic server data breaches. Building your reputation, and your business’s credibility as a trustworthy association will also build your client’s credibility, boosting the entire partnership for future collaboration.
Easy deployment and management
Deploying a cloud-based windows server data protection solution onto your customer’s network is straightforward and quickly accomplished when you choose a vendor that integrates seamlessly with your RMM and PSA software. Having a better vendor system makes it all around easier and more sensible during any installation process. In the case that you go through one vendor, everything you need is designated in the same place. This smooth process provides a one-time install process which removes the antiquated system of hardware packages that used to litter software setups. Storage Guardian takes this approach, permitting the electronic interchange of server data to simplify the day-to-day management of your customers’ windows server data and accounts, increase technician efficiency and increases billing accuracy.
Regardless of what any company tells you, every couple of years the technology you use becomes outdated. If you want your company to stay on top of the market, you’ll want updates annually, server backs ups constantly, and the best hardware around. Having a system which runs through one vendor, with a backup, will allow you to easily restore data the second your new software updates are ready. Fear of losing old data should not stop a company from growing. We’ve all been in a situation where a factory reset, or system state reset seems easier than new software, or a clean up. But this kind of backwards thinking isn’t proactive. Server backups are tremendously important, and if they go wrong, it can cause data breaches, and software malfunctions. Therefore it’s always better to use a data backup service, like Storage Guardian.
In summary, With North America’s cyber security market expected to surpass $67,142 million by the end of 2025 according to Persistence Market Research, now is the time to add windows server data security services to your set of offerings and take advantage of the growing demand from businesses of all sizes. And remember: If you cannot provide your customers with a solution that will protect their critical business server data and give them peace of mind, other MSPs are waiting just around the corner to happily step in and take your place. MSPs have little excuse for leaving this kind of potential revenue on the table.

The Ethereum Merge is essentially the most important facet of the ETH 2.0 improve, since it can convert from a proof-of-work to a proof-of-stake system.
The transfer from proof-of-work to proof-of-stake consensus is the main focus of the improve. The enchancment, as beforehand reported, has been postponed till the top of 2022, with no particular deadline in sight.
The world’s second-largest cryptocurrency was meant to be weeks away from the “merge” a June improve of its blockchain Ethereum that may make it sooner, cheaper, and fewer energy demanding, promising a meaner and cleaner crypto future.
Ethereum Merge Will Help ETH
Messari’s senior analysis analyst Tom Dunleavy believes in a report titled “The Decoupling Thesis” that the Ethereum merger will probably be a significant turning level in buyers’ financial outlook.
He factors out that previously, the crypto market leaders, Bitcoin and Ethereum, had a excessive constructive affiliation with the broader US inventory market. For longer durations, the correlation between the 2 cryptos and the Nasdaq and S&P 500 index was 40-50 %, whereas for shorter durations, it was about 90 %.

Gold and US authorities bonds, alternatively, have traditionally had a destructive correlation with shares. However, this destructive hyperlink is weakening in the meanwhile. During the 2020 market droop, each gold and bonds, in addition to equities, fell.
ETH/USD trades at $2,821. Source: TradingView
“It’s certainly plausible that Ethereum’s highly anticipated upgrade to a proof-of-stake system could be delayed again given that this transition is highly complicated and still uncertain as to whether it can actually deliver on its promise of lowering costs and increasing transaction speeds.”
On April 11, Ethereum declined 8% from $3,215 to $2,947, the day Ethereum principal developer Tim Beiko introduced on Twitter that the June deployment had been postponed as testing proceeded. This month, it has dropped 13% to $2,844.
Following the merger, ETH will operate as a quasi-government bond. Stakers will put up cash in trade for a hard and fast fee of return, related to a bond precept. This can even cement Bitcoin’s standing as a type of digital gold.
The Merge May Push The Flippening Forward
Messari has projected that the broader crypto trade would divorce from international markets by 2022. Various segments of the crypto enterprise will proceed to acquire traction, in accordance to the market analysis agency.
Meanwhile, predictions that the merger will propel Ethereum over Bitcoin are nonetheless circulating. Noelle Acheson, head of market analytics at Genesis Trading, advised Reuters that after the merger, extra funds will flock to Ethereum.
ETH is at present buying and selling at round $2,850, with a market worth of $343.98 billion, whereas Bitcoin is at present buying and selling at round $38,200, with a market capitalization of $726.69 billion.

Curtius and Hofmann rearrangements are two important reactions which have as common intermediate a particular species, called nitrene (nitrogen analogue of carbene).
Curtius rearrangement is a useful reaction which allows to obtain a primary amine starting from an acyl azide. The resulting amine has a carbon less, because the last step of the reaction involves the loss of a molecule of CO2 . Although this is the most useful application of the reaction, changing the final step it is possible to obtain different products, such as carbamates or urea derivatives (in this case CO2 is not lost).
- Reaction mechanism
As anticipated, the starting substrate for the Curtius rearrangement is an acyl azide. We can obtain an acyl azide simply treating an acyl chloride with sodium azide, NaN3 (the nucleophilic species is N3 - ). For heating the acyl azide decomposes (it loses nitrogen, N2 ) to give an intermediate very special called nitrene. The nitrene has a nitrogen atom with atypical configuration; it is neutral, since surrounded by 5 electrons, but still presents an important electronic gap, since it is not in octect configuration. We could represent the situation of its orbit as follows:
Three orbital sp2 are completely filled and the p orbital is empty. This configuration makes this particularly nitrogen atom really electrophilic , so that the molecule rearranges, with a carbon - carbon bond transposition to give a new carbon - nitrogen bond.
The result is an isocyanate, a neutral molecule in which all atoms reached the octect.
At this point adding water the isocyanate reacts rapidly to give carbamic acid that spontaneously decomposes losing a molecule of CO2 .
Thinking about our starting substrate, we got a primary amine with a skeleton of carbon which corresponds to the group -R the initial molecule. It 'was lost, (in the case has been used H2O to hydrolyze the isocyanate) the acyl carbon atom.
Hofmann rearrangement (also called Hofmann degradation) allows to obtain the same products of Curtius rearrangement, with the difference that starts from an amide rather than by a acyl azide or an acyl chloride.
Since you are working with an amide (stable to hydrolysis reactions unlike an acyl azide), the reaction can be performed directly in an aqueous solvent.

This ongoing heat wave calls for refreshing white wines, and you can hardly go wrong by turning to Austria. Even just picturing this little Alpine country makes me feel cooler; centuries-old castles and tidy thick-walled villages watching over steep vineyards, above which the dulcet tones of Julie Andrews float.
In recent years, Austria has become justly famous (at least in some circles) for its high-quality and food-friendly Rieslings and Grüner Veltliners, both of which regularly make appearances on restaurant wine lists. I love these, and I tasted some fantastic examples at a recent tasting of Austrian wines.
But of course, I can’t resist going even deeper into obscurity. If you see a well-priced Austrian Riesling or Grüner, buy it; it will likely be an excellent value. But if you happen to find an Austrian white made with some other variety, grab that sucker and hold on with two fists. Some examples:
Johanneshof Reinisch Rotgipfler, 2011: The late-ripening Rotgipfler variety — the result of a cross between Roter Veltliner and Traminer — flourishes in the Thermenregion’s warm vineyards south of Vienna. This pale straw-colored example had a sweet pineapply aroma and a bit of prickle on the tongue. It turned surprisingly (but not unpleasantly) sour at the end, making it easy to pair with a range of foods.
Sattlerhof Steirische Klassik Gelber Muskateller, 2011: The Sattlerhof estate enjoys a particularly picturesque setting in the hills of the small Südsteiermark region bordering Slovenia. According to The Oxford Companion to Wine, many of the area’s best producers belong to the Steirische Klassik association, which works to ensure that wines represent the local terroir to its full potential. “Gelber Muskateller” is simply Muscat Blanc, one of the oldest known (and to my mind, one of the most delicious) wine grape varieties. It looked almost clear in the glass, with just a hint of yellow, and I loved its exquisitely floral aroma of overripe pineapple and lily-of-the-valley. Its juicy and almost tart flavor profile was not over sweet, and again, it would be sure to work well with all sorts of light summer recipes.
Sattlerhof Trockenbeerenauslese, 2010: Don’t be intimidated by the name (pronounced “Traw-ken-bear-en-owss-lay-seh). This typically German compound word indicates that the fruit used to make this wine is as ripe as ripe can be, with flavors and sugars concentrated by Noble Rot. If you like Sauternes or Tokaji Aszu, this wine is right up your alley. If you don’t like sweet wines, this one might just change your mind. Crafted with Sauvignon Blanc, this deeply golden wine had rich fruit and a lush, luxurious sweetness balanced — perfectly, beautifully, improbably — by a veritable kick line of acids. Sheer, unadulterated delight.
Zantho Muskat Ottonel, 2011: The Oxford Companion takes a dim view of this variety (also simply Muscat Ottonel), calling it “the palest of all the Muscats, both in terms of the color of the wine produced and in terms of its character.” Ouch. Zantho’s version, grown in vineyards squeezed between the marshy Neusiedlersee (Neusiedler Lake) and Hungary, is actually very aromatic, with a perfumy, floral nose. It’s not a wine to contemplate, but its sweet, sprightly, fruity and tart flavors make it a fun wine for summer. And since Zantho is one of Austria’s more well-known producers, with an easily recognizable lizard on the label, you have a fighting chance of finding this in your local wine shop.
Zantho Scheurebe Beerenauslese, 2010: Like a Trockenbeerenauslese, a Beerenauslese makes use of fruit affected by Noble Rot, but it’s not quite as concentrated or ripe. Apparently a different bottling from the one on Zantho’s website (listed as Traminer), this wine is made from Scheurebe, a cross between Riesling and some as-yet undetermined variety. A lovely gold, this wine smelled of green, honeyed apples and had notes of apples, peaches and even passion fruit. Yum.
Tement “Temento Green”, 2011: Set in the Südsteiermark region like Sattlerhof, Tement has a whole range of delicious whites of non-Riesling origin. This blend of Welschriesling (also known as Grasevina) and Sauvignon Blanc had a very green, fruity aroma, a prickle on the tongue and a sweet, rather vegetal flavor profile. It reminded me of a Portuguese Vinho Verde, making it a fine summer quaff.
Tement Steirische Klassik Gelber Muskateller, 2011: Also with a sweet, green nose, this wine morphed from sweet to acidic before tightening into a minerally finish. Very different from the Sattlerhof expression of the variety, but also excellent.
Tement Steirische Klassik Sauvignon Blanc, 2011: Almost clear, with an assertively citrusy and grassy aroma. These smells heralded the flavors to come; a mouthful of juicy grapefruit and grassy green. Bold and fun.
Tement Grassnitzberg Sauvignon Blanc, 2010: This fine single-vineyard Sauvignon Blanc reminded me of a subtler, more elegant version of the Klassik above. It was more refined and appropriate for a dinner party, whereas the Klassik was more of a racy broad more at home at a casual barbeque or picnic. | <urn:uuid:2ba91f18-2d14-4b92-b9d1-7d17ae7bd4fd> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | http://oddbacchus.com/2012/07/austrias-other-whites/ | 2022-09-27T23:03:38Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030335059.31/warc/CC-MAIN-20220927225413-20220928015413-00676.warc.gz | en | 0.911957 | 1,298 | [

Tom has been writing about poker since 1994 and has played across the USA for over 40 years, playing every game in almost every card room in Atlantic City, California and Las Vegas.
Becoming a Professional Poker Player
There is a phenomenon that occurs frequently among amateur poker players. A recreational player starts running well and winning consistently and comes to the conclusion that playing poker for a living makes a lot of sense. Hey, what’s not to like? It’s fun, it’s profitable, you can make your own hours, you are your own boss, quit when you want, play as long as you like, sleep till noon and the list goes on. Our winning recreational poker player’s only query at this point in his analysis is, “Why didn’t I think of this sooner”?
Assuming you’re not already a full time pro, have you ever thought of poker as a career path? I mean, really – how difficult can it be? You see these youngsters on TV that deposit $20 in an online poker account, begin winning, never look back and are now millionaires! While there certainly have been a couple of mind boggling success stories, when poker becomes your sole source of income the following cliché becomes very true; poker is a tough way to make an easy living.
I’m not saying becoming a poker pro can’t be done or is a foolhardy endeavor – after all many have made a successful crossover to professional poker and prospered. I am saying it takes some thought, introspection and honest evaluation of your talents, motives and determination to assess whether you are resilient enough to succeed in this unusual life style. Let’s examine some of the criteria that one should be focused to before making the plunge.
Are You a Winning Poker Player?
The real question is are you a winning player at stakes high enough to support the life style you demand? Two key criteria need to be addressed. First, you must know you are a winning player not just believe it because of anecdotal evidence. You must keep meticulous and honest records of your sessions to prove to yourself that over time you are a winning player. Keeping honest records is a must. I know some players tend to fudge the records slightly to make their statistics look better. This is nonsense of the highest order as lying to yourself can only be self defeating. I also think that you need a minimum of a thousand hours and, more realistically, two thousand to have a database of any relevance. So, if you’ve just won your last four sessions in a row for a total of fifteen hours and think you’re ready to turn pro – think again!
The second part of the proof is the stakes that you have been beating on a regular basis. Remember, if you’re playing low stakes and beating them like a drum those winnings will probably not be able to support you. You need to determine how much money you will need to earn in order to support yourself and, if not single, your family. If you have been keeping solid records, then you know your hourly earn rate over a thousand or more hours. You can then compute that against how many hours per week you plan to play and determine if the thought to turn pro is just a fantasy or could actually work. Here is a sobering fact – if you determine that you will need to play higher stakes to earn enough money to live on then the competition just became stronger and you will need to prove that you can still win against stronger opposition. Notice how the fanciful thought of being your own boss and earning a living while having fun at the poker table has begun to sound like a real job?
You also need to consider how large a poker bankroll you will need to survive the inevitable downswings that will occur. Every business needs working capital and if you are considering turning professional you will be starting your own business. The first step is determining what stakes you will be playing as discussed above. There have been many different bankroll requirements espoused in the poker literature. Let’s look at two versions, one for limit hold’em and another for no-limit hold’em.
Limit Poker Bankroll Requirements
The most common number used for limit is 300 big bets. That means, once you determine what stakes you need to play, anticipating an earn rate of one big bet an hour, you would multiply the big bet times 300. If you need to play $20-$40, which would yield (at 40 hours per week) $1,600, then you would require a bankroll of $12,000. The reader must also understand that this represents a very simplistic rule of thumb and there are many other variables that are beyond the scope of this article.
No-Limit Poker Bankroll Requirements
The bankroll swings that can occur in no-limit are far steeper than those of limit. Assuming we are addressing the current method of limiting the size of one’s buy-in, then a good rule of thumb is 20 to 25 maximum buy-ins. If you have determined you need to be playing in a $500 max buy-in game then you should have a $12,500 bankroll.
Amassing a Bankroll
If you are contemplating quitting your day job in pursuit of a career in poker, take the precaution of proving to yourself you can swim with the sharks and prevail while at the same time putting together the necessary bankroll to assist in a smooth transition. The best way to accomplish this is to identify the stakes you will need to win at in order to live well and begin playing while you still have an income stream. After each winning session, put half of your new found wealth in a locked up kitty until you have the requisite bankroll to start your business. Using the above bankroll examples should mean that by saving just half your wins you should be able to amass a $12,000 bankroll in about four months. Using a factor of $20 per hour when you really need $40 per hour is just prudent to build a bankroll before jumping into the deep end of the pool and turning your life upside down.
In addition to having the necessary bankroll to start your business you must also have a minimum of six months worth of expense money put aside because you can’t withdraw your expenses from your bankroll. If you do have what it takes, at the end of six months, your bankroll should have grown and you can begin to use profit for expenses.
Protecting Your Bankroll
You must also think about protecting your bankroll. For example, if you begin to lose having played at stakes of $20-$40 then you must drop down to $15-$30 until you rebuild what you have lost. If you’re going to be successful then forget about a bruised ego that may occur as you envision others seeing you dropping down in stakes. So what, who cares – your business has to embrace a temporary austerity program.
Of course, while weathering the storm your earning capacity is reduced and that is why it was prudent to be building your bankroll. If your bankroll takes a hit during a losing streak, you must own up to the fact that you need to rebuild it. There are only two ways to do that – one is by cutting back on your expenses thereby adding to it weekly and/or by adding to it through another income stream. If you do not ardently protect your bankroll you ultimately will go broke and be out of business. It happens to businesses all the time and if you turn professional and are relying solely on poker as your source of income then you are a business.
Other Factors and Pitfalls
No one knows the long term future of poker except to guess, since it has been around forever, its popularity will continue. If we accept that on faith then the real long term concern is if the games will remain beatable. One thing you must accept is even if you are a long term winning player, you must continue to work on your game away from the table which means reading the current literature, interacting in poker forums and honestly evaluating your play after each and every session. Having an associate or coach who you can trust to honestly evaluate your play and help you with leaks and new evolving strategies so you can continue to beat the games is also essential. Businessmen take courses, attend seminars and regularly interact with colleagues to keep their competitive edge – poker is no different. Oops, starting to sound like a job again… sorry.
Social life? Maybe I should say the lack of a social life. You will find that your life away from poker will mostly be with people that eat, sleep and dream abuot poker. First, you will be keeping odd hours or at least hours that the mainstream public does not keep. That fact in and of itself does not bode well as far as developing relationships outside and away from poker. Quite frankly, in my view, that isn’t the healthiest cocoon to live all your waking hours in. Secondly, your income will be somewhat on a rollercoaster ride which will tend to effect your moods. It will become a tedious chore to remain stoic in the face of soaring euphoria and plummeting despair. It can and is done but it will become a challenge.
Your Sense of Worth
Many people despise their jobs and just suffer through the hours to earn a paycheck. They dream of doing something that they would enjoy or would be inspiring such as becoming a doctor, social worker, teacher, soldier or a member of any number of other professions. One day they question what they do for a living, thinking it has no redeeming social value. They wonder how they became trapped in this job – and yes, it will be a job. Many play professional poker their whole lives, enjoy it immensely, cherish the friendships they have made through the game and never have a second thought. As they say, there ain’t no right or wrong here, it’s whatever floats your boat. The question you need to ask yourself before making the plunge is if you believe in your heart that you will enjoy playing cards for a living in five, ten, twenty or more years – or when it becomes evident that it is a job. You need to put in the hours just like a job. The difference is there are no paid vacations and it is one of the only jobs that you can go to work, put in a full day and come home with less in your wallet.
I’ve tried to offer up a fair and balanced view of becoming a professional poker player. There are many other elements which I haven’t delved into that are beyond the scope of this article such as – do you play just cash games or tournaments as well, paying taxes, age related considerations, funding benefits that an employer might offer and more. Suffice to say that if you really believe this is the life for you, have proved through record keeping and bankroll accumulation that you have what it takes, have satisfied yourself regarding the many other personal elements unique to your own situation, then go for it.
Let me close with a few suggestions if you’re on your way to professional poker. Continue to study and work on your game. Poker strategies are always changing as the game is fluid so don’t fall behind the curve. Learn all of the games as there may well be opportunities to play in a juicy seven card stud or Omaha game and if all you feel comfortable playing is hold’em, you’ll be at a disadvantage. Last and maybe most important – have a backup plan. Don’t allow poker to consume your life. If one day you do wake up and despise your current job you just might want to try something else – try and be prepared.

Tesla is leading the way into a cleaner, electric future.
Proud car owners swear by these sleek, four-wheeled paragons of energy efficiency. But, for many, the million-dollar question is: “How long does a Tesla battery last, exactly?”
There is little financial sense in saving on gasoline only to throw money at a new battery. It’s also a less-than-ideal scenario to have your battery pack deteriorate quickly.
That all being said, many fossil fuel advocates raise false notions about the battery lifespan. You shouldn’t let them scare you away from Tesla vehicles. These electric workhorses have plenty of range and resilience in them.
We are going to look beyond ballpark figures and find the exact answers for you.
Getting the Show on the Road
There’s a lot of hearsay and speculation surrounding the topic of Tesla’s car battery life.
We’re going to ignore all that nonsense and focus on facts and figures. Some of you may be saying already: “Wait, the coveted brand doesn’t publish official numbers”. While that is true, numerous drivers across the globe have disclosed their data.
The most reliable method of gauging longevity is completely draining the battery and then upping it to 100%. Tesla owners in the majority of available surveys have done exactly that.
Their diligence has allowed us to notice some significant patterns. The key thing isn’t just to calculate maximum lifespan, but also to take into account the rate of degradation.
According to European survey reports (from the Dutch-Belgium Tesla owners group), there’s a slight drop in efficiency after the 50,000-mile watermark, but it’s not more than 5%. After 160,000 miles, the battery operates at a 90% capacity.
These numbers are much better than those EV skeptics and cynics put forward.
How Long Does a Tesla Battery Last: Numbers Game
One would naturally expect there comes a point of more aggressive battery degradation.
Some people suspected this may occur after 300,000 miles. However, the aforementioned survey finds the battery retains 80% capacity after 500,000 miles. Over time, the degradation rate actually takes a dip, which is great news.
This is to say that short of a breakdown, it long outlives even the most cutting-edge combustion engines. To confirm this conclusion we examined other surveys and anecdotal accounts.
Thus, it seems safe to assume you should enjoy 90% battery efficiency well into the six-digit territory.
Some of them involve even more impressive figures. The Tesloop company argues there is only a 6% loss in range after 200,000 miles. There are experts who claim it could still run at 85% efficiency after half a million miles.
It should be noted Model 3 is unique, as it has a battery degradation warranty. For a standard battery, it guarantees 70% capacity after 100,000 miles, while the long-range battery has a 120,000 miles guarantee. This is a bit more generous than Nissan’s warranty for its Leaf model (66% over 100,000 miles).
As for degradation issues with models like Model S and Model X, you’re sadly on your own.
A Matter of Caveats and Nuances
Bear in mind average figures doesn’t always translate into individual performance.
It’s not entirely uncommon for the battery to last far less time than advertised. Nobody can completely shield owners against unpleasant surprises. But, data shows that only a small percentage of them (5.6%) experience battery failures.
Another piece of good news is Tesla warrants batteries for malfunctions and defects for 8 years. This means within this timeframe, the company will either repair or replace it free of charge.
Furthermore, we should underline some battery packs are more durable than others. A bulk of failure incidents are associated with 85 kWh batteries, which have been around the longest. On the other hand, Model S hit the road in 2012.
We have to wait a bit more to see how its battery holds up when taken to a real distance. Nevertheless, available data paints a promising picture so far. It would centrally be a surprise to find out that Tesla has somehow managed to lower the bar.
A Look into the Crystal Ball
In April this year, Elon Musk announced new batteries will be able to withstand the beating of 500,000 miles.
The body and drive unit will last double that, implying only one battery replacement over the total lifespan of the car.
In other words, an improved drivetrain should give you at least several decades. What is more, the company will provide battery module replacements for between $5,000 and $7,000.
Skeptics aren’t so convinced. They think these claims are more on the optimistic side. Even if that ends up being true, we rightfully expect to see significant improvements.
Of course, we should be fair and say that not everything is the fault or merit of the manufacturer.
In all likelihood, charging habits have an influence on the deterioration rates. Tesla stated on one occasion that consistent supercharging hurts battery health.
Environmental factors aren’t to be overlooked either. Extreme heat, for instance, is a bane of every electric battery’s existence. Other factors playing a role are average speed and frequency of fast charging.
Despite the hurdles though, Tesla vehicles are a rather cost-effective proposal. You should be able to enjoy many carefree hours behind the wheel. In the process, you also help preserve the environment.
And with fossil fuels running out, you might want to transition to EVs sooner rather than later.
Electric Dreams Do Come True
The dawn of the electric driving era is upon us.
Despite all the buzz and enthusiasm, many drivers still fear the battery may prematurely die on them. There are many concerns about lost battery capacity as well.
Well, different data sources have come together quite nicely. They dispel the uncertainty related to the question of “How long does a Tesla battery last?”
As it turns out, most of the suspicions are misplaced. Tesla has a well-engineered battery pack built to last. Its performance also declines slowly, over thousands of miles.
Failures and defects are quite rare.
For all these reasons, the present and the future look bright for Tesla and its customers. We live in times when technology is making leaps and bounds. Groundbreaking innovations are just around the corner.

The everyday of our family farm
PTO does not always mean Please Turn Over. Sometimes it can mean Power Take Off.
Great shot, well done Diane
The grain goes in then comes out. I can see the grain, good capture.
Yep, that is about it! The grain is stored in the silo, goes via auger to hopper, down through the roller that's driven by the tractor PTO (just like Andrew said), back up another auger and into the waiting grouper. From here we take the grouper of grain to the paddock where the cattle are, and auger it into a grain feeder. The grain feeder regulates how much grain the cattle can get, so they don't binge.
Now that's a clever farmer!
Love it.A farmer's version of 'the hip bones connected to the thighbone...'
LOL!! That's about right!
Loved Elephant's child's comment...LOL Farmers are good at figuring things out...they have to be.
Wonderful the tractor looks fractionally younger than I am. | <urn:uuid:7d8162de-0571-415e-81dc-c31bed8e0e3e> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://www.ourfarm-ily.com/2015/08/august-2-2015.html | 2022-09-27T23:22:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030335059.31/warc/CC-MAIN-20220927225413-20220928015413-00676.warc.gz | en | 0.941874 | 226 | [

Isolated Students, Exhausted Teachers and a Call for a Familiar Face
According to Daniel Malcom at the National Library of Medicine, current trends show that young people are feeling increased levels of loneliness and isolation. This directly correlates with feelings of community and closeness to the classroom. If we are not taking the time to address students' mental health concerns, then the classroom environment cannot thrive.
The effects of looping with students have been widely documented. I myself have seen the benefits of looping with my students not once, not twice, but three years. I know from experience that looping needs to have a stronger presence in this post-pandemic world. Now more than ever, we need to recognize the social-emotional benefits of looping for both teachers and students.
Students Crave Connection
In a post-pandemic world, I, like many teachers, have heard the rallying cry for greater social-emotional well-being practices and training in our schools. These practices and training have become an absolute necessity to any successful school. In 2021, Richard Weissbourd et al. with Harvard Graduate School of Education conducted a nationwide study which found that "61% of young adults… feel serious loneliness". With over half of our students feeling social isolation and loneliness, educators need to re-examine our practices and re-evaluate what is working and what is not. Without intervention, these feelings of social isolation and loneliness can lead to depression in our students.
One way students can continue to feel a sense of community coming back into school buildings is to see a familiar face in their classroom. This face can offer grounding for a student as well as established routines. Weisbourd et al. state, "About half of the identified lonely students in our survey… reported that no one in the past few weeks had taken more than just a few minutes to ask how they are doing in a way that made them feel generally cared for." This startling statistic shows that students are craving teachers to care about their needs in a genuine capacity. A teacher with a pre-established relationship with the student is better equipped to make the student feel cared for. An established community is the key to students feeling comfortable opening up to their peers and teachers. It also is the key to a teacher being able to converse with a student in a way that they will feel genuinely cared for.
The Teacher Burnout Crisis
With many of our students feeling this way, it becomes even clearer why teacher burnout is at a high level. The Washington Post has recently commented on this in their piece on the national teacher shortage. We expect teachers to navigate the curriculum and improve test scores. But to achieve that, teachers have to address the social-emotional needs of their students. Even as we return to the school buildings, teacher burnout rates remain drastically high. A recent Gallup poll states that "More than four in 10 K-12 workers in the U.S. (44%) say they "always" or "very often" feel burned out at work, outpacing all other industries nationally." In my personal experiences and conversations with professionals, high expectations with less support are a primary reason educators leave the profession. While a great deal of this is attributed to academic expectations, there must be more to the story.
Looping Kept Me in the Classroom
Throughout my experience with virtual teaching, I was disheartened, to say the least. I had physical reactions to being relegated to a screen all day. I am one of those people that needs to travel away from my living space for work. I struggled greatly with a true lack of work and home-life separation. I told myself that if the following year was going to be online as well, I would change my career. I am an active person, I go to the gym daily, and I am a social butterfly. However, during the pandemic, I couldn't bring myself to go to the gym. I saw my friends less. I needed a daily lunchtime nap to function and get through the day, which is something I have never needed before. What kept me coming back and turning my screen on were the students I had spent an entire year building relationships with in person.
Yes, like many teachers, I experienced the dreaded cameras off while teaching to a black screen. But I also had plenty of times when all cameras were on, and we would have a free-flowing discussion. My students had a stronger desire to connect to our learning community because of their pre-established relationships with their peers and me. When it was time to return to the classroom for the 3rd year in a row, I was overjoyed to be back with those same students. My mental and physical health improved, and my love for teaching came back like riding a bike. I did not enter the classroom starting fresh, I entered the classroom with momentum from previous years, and I firmly believe that coming in with momentum was what kept me moving. Getting started from a standstill was not something I was prepared to do.
Looping Can Improve Mental Health for Students and Teachers
Taking on a high level of social-emotional needs can be draining. And these demands have skyrocketed in recent years. We now have a system that expects teachers to reach curricular achievements but limits their ways of addressing students' social-emotional needs. That leads to feelings of hopelessness and frustration. Teachers who genuinely care for their students are struggling to do so because they do not have the time to establish relationships.
I do not think that looping alone will solve the teacher shortage. Teachers thrive on the relationships they are able to create with their students. If we can normalize the option of looping and allow teachers more time to build those relationships, job satisfaction could increase. The social-emotional well-being of our students is at the forefront of our minds. But if we do not prioritize the social-emotional well-being of our teachers, we are creating an environment that does not inspire our educators. Inspired educators create successful students.
I believe that a beacon of light that shines through, as it always does in education, is the face of a familiar teacher. As we face unprecedented social-emotional needs for students and teacher burnout, we cannot afford to start each year from scratch. Looping can provide the strong foundation that students and teachers need to thrive in difficult times.

Months from when it announced that it will be rebranding COON cheese due to the insensitive nature of the brand name possibly offending certain races, Saputo Dairy has announced the renaming of its product to CHEER cheese.
In a statement, the company said it wished to be seen as being part of “a culture of acceptance, inclusion and respect”.
The originally named COON cheese had been operating in Australia for over 85 years, and took its moniker from American cheese processor, Edward William Coon.
The name ‘Coon’ has been deemed as a racial slur against people of colour, most notably Aboriginals, for decades, with critics having long called for the brand to change its name.
“Treating people with respect and without discrimination is one of our basic principles and it is imperative that we continue to uphold this in everything we do,” said Lino A. Saputo, chair and chief executive officer at Saputo Dairy.
“Our decision to change the name of Australia’s much-loved cheese reinforces this commitment to build a culture of acceptance, inclusion and respect where everyone feels a sense of belonging.” | <urn:uuid:8d95bd0e-86dd-4b66-b7d6-4b34b9e7b5fe> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://creammagazine.com/2021/01/13/coon-now-rebranded-to-cheer-cheese-due-to-the-original-name-deemed-as-racist/ | 2022-09-30T16:10:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030335491.4/warc/CC-MAIN-20220930145518-20220930175518-00676.warc.gz | en | 0.972159 | 251 | [

Last month, I focused on the value of my mentors. Coincidentally, I recently came across a person on TV who refers to himself as “The Superconnector.”
Chris Winfield advises new college graduates to connect with the 20 most influential people in their lives — he recommends sharing the job they really want with them, and asking for their help.
I appreciate this lesson in networking. I wish networking was a skill taught in school when I was there. I suspect it is now. But in reflecting back, I realize I would have been completely overwhelmed by that advice.
First of all, when I was a recent college graduate, I had little to no awareness of who in my life was influential. I wasn’t thinking about “making connections,” professional or otherwise. In fact, it wasn’t until launching ABD Law, over 15 years into my legal career, that I fully understood the power of networking.
Also, I wouldn’t have been able to identify my “dream job.” My professional path has always been more about the journey. I wasn’t a kid that ever planned to attend law school. When I got to Penn Law, I was intimidated by students who envisioned saving the world after graduating. I’ve never even had a five-year plan. Does anyone still do this anymore?
Once becoming entrenched in Big Law, I just worked hard (often until the wee hours of the day/night). For many years, I was on the grind! This rigorous lifestyle built up my stamina and endurance, and reinforced my already solid work ethic. But, when I lost my job in Big Law, I suffered from the loss of my identity. After 16 years, I didn’t know who I was, if not an attorney in private practice.
Today, I’m grateful for my unwillingness to commit to any particular long-term professional plan. The practice of law has been disrupted by developments in technology. What I do today (solo practitioner, working from home) was inconceivable 10 years ago, let alone when I graduated from law school or college. Upon launching ABD Law, a variety of new and interesting opportunities arose and continue to come my way.
I embrace being a Rezooming Attorney, and once I started leveraging my network, I stopped looking back. Although I never know when or where my next deal is coming from, I’m comfortable with that uncertainty because I trust in my network and the goodwill I have developed within that community. Although it was a bumpy road getting here, I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Kudos to you, Chris Winfield. I applaud you for teaching the kids to think about the importance of networking early on in their careers. | <urn:uuid:5d69c237-7243-428d-ad6a-0619bd240b53> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://aimeebdavis.com/a-networking-lesson-and-reflections-on-a-professional-journey/ | 2022-10-02T00:43:27Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030336978.73/warc/CC-MAIN-20221001230322-20221002020322-00676.warc.gz | en | 0.981676 | 575 | [

By Maria Bonaventure
President Biden recently signed an executive order to split $7 billion in Afghanistan’s frozen funds, using the powers conferred on him by the United States Constitution and other laws, including the International Economic Emergency Powers Act (IEEPA), the National Emergency Act (NEA), and the United States Code.
The executive order states that the property of the Central Bank of Afghanistan held in the United States with the Federal Reserve will be blocked and will require US financial institutions to transfer this property into a consolidated account held at the Federal Reserve Bank in New York. The Administration will seek to facilitate access to $3.5 billion of those assets for the benefit of Afghanistan’s people and future, pending for a judicial decision.
The executive order also states that the remaining other half of the frozen assets amounting to $3.5 billion will be utilized to settle the claims of the families of the 9/11 the victims.
According to the parlance of international banking, normally, the relationship between a customer and the banker is that of creditor-debtor or debtor-creditor. To describe it briefly, if a customer maintains a credit balance in his account or maintains a deposit account, the relationship between the customer and the banker is that of creditor-debtor. The relationship is reversed to debtor-creditor relationship when the customer is a borrower.
It must be clearly noted that the relationship between the Central Bank of Afghanistan and the Federal Reserve in New York is a creditor-debtor relationship in case of account balances and deposits maintained by the central bank of Afghanistan. Gold deposits are maintained in the hands of the Federal Reserve as a trustee. Hence both the account balances and deposits and the gold reserves maintained by the central bank of Afghanistan must be treated to have come in the hands of the Federal Reserve Bank in its capacity as a banker for safe custody. These assets held by the Federal Reserve should be considered as assets that should be returned, and hence, cannot be divided or settled against any other claims – unless otherwise stated.
In banking practice, account balances are set off or appropriated towards irregular loan accounts and if any amount has come in the hands of the banker in any other capacity, say as agent or as trustee, the same could not be set off or appropriated against any other claims.
The executive order goes on to state that even before the August 15 turmoil, Afghanistan’s economy was on the verge of collapse. Widespread corruption crippled sectors that should have been profitable. The economy of Afghanistan was dependent on donations from donor countries and was not self-dependent.
Afghanistan has relied heavily on humanitarian assistance in the past, from civilian pay to teachers’ salaries. International grants provided about 75 percent of public spending and 50 percent of government funding. For the implementation of any project, whether digitalization of banking activities or electronic payment activities relied only on financial assistance. The minimum income from the export of agricultural products or carpets was not enough to sustain Afghanistan’s economy.
During the 20-year period from 2001 to 2021, none of the powers at the helm took any precautionary steps to exploit Afghanistan’s vast mineral reserves. No initiative was taken to improve the country’s basic infrastructure, such as providing transportation and even drinking water.
The factsheet itself reflects the fact that even before the Taliban seized power in Afghanistan in August 2021, widespread corruption was rampant and, therefore, the previous rulers were not genuine and did not fight for the cause of the country and the people of Afghanistan. The factsheet, referred here, is the paper that was issued by the white house informing about the blocking of the reserves of the central bank of Afghanistan. It should be noted here that even Ashraf Ghani’s victory over his main rival ,Dr. Abdullah Abdullah, in the last elections was disputed.
The factsheet, followed by a presidential executive order, states that the United States has been working closely with the United Nations to “transfer” $280 million in World Bank assistance from the Afghanistan Reconstruction Trust Fund (ARTF) to the United Nations last December.
The main purposes for which the ARTF is meant for are (1) to finance, among others, recurrent civilian operating costs including civil servant salaries and operations and maintenance expenditures, and (2) to invest in development fund aimed to fund individual development projects that support the national development strategy.
The $280 million grant was intended to increase food security and basic health services. ARTF has a $1.5 billion portfolio for the above two purposes. This equates to a gross diversion of funds because the ARTF targets and the proposed use for the $280 million transferred funds were quite different.
The whole world stood by the victims of the Twin Towers tragedy on that fateful day. It was also known to the whole world that all but one of the 9/11 victims’ families received precious compensation for that tragedy.
In addition, the US government itself was negotiating a smooth transfer of power with the Taliban and the previous Afghan government. What happened in Afghanistan was not exactly what the international powers wanted. But it is not in Biden’s interest to hold ordinary Afghan citizens accountable for the 9/11 attacks by freezing the assets of the Central Bank of Afghanistan and blocking aid that has been flowing so far.
Therefore, it is clear that the latest executive order signed by President Biden may not be in the best interest of ordinary citizens of Afghanistan, especially as the country’s fragile economy collapses and struggles to recover. The reserves do not belong to the Taliban, but to every single citizen of Afghanistan. Moreover, the terrorist elements who took part in the catastrophic 9/11 incident were later identified as nationals of Saudi Arabia, and the al-Qaeda leader was killed inside Pakistan. Thus, the 9/11 attacks have nothing to do with civilians in Afghanistan who are currently enduring the most difficult economic conditions.
It remains to be seen, then, whether the executive order will increase Biden’s popularity for simply blocking half of Afghanistan’s foreign reserves in favor of the families of 9/11 victims. Whatever the outcome of President Biden’s decision, the helpless people of Afghanistan will pay a heavy price for a crime they did not commit.
Maria Bonaventure has served as Chief Operating Officer (COO) with Azizi Bank, Afghan United Bank (AUB) and Maiwand Bank. He has also served as senior international advisor with Exchanger Zone – Aryapool group.

At MUST Clinic in Kernersville, North Carolina, and throughout the Piedmont Triad area, Zoe Stallings, MD, assesses where the patient is starting and what efforts have previously been made in her approach to weight loss. The team discusses a comprehensive plan after the initial consultation and works on goal setting. They encourage patients to start with screenings, followed by a strategic plan to correct deficiencies, boost metabolism, and improve nutrition management. They review exercise routines and make referrals to appropriate fitness experts when necessary. MUST Clinic believes weight loss can be achieved with proper support. Call or book online for a consultation.
If you’re overweight or obese, losing extra weight can be extremely beneficial for your whole-body health. Even dropping 5-10% of your total body weight typically yields significant health benefits, including lower blood pressure, reduced blood cholesterol, and lower blood sugar levels.
Weight loss plays a big role in chronic care management, preventive care, and improving the outcomes when you have a systemic condition like diabetes. MUST Clinic is here to help you unlock the path to weight loss success so you can look and feel better.
At MUST Clinic, you get comprehensive weight management.
Dr. Stallings begins by screening for underlying conditions, including diabetes and thyroid disease. Both diabetes and thyroid disease are endocrine disorders that can affect your weight, and they often occur at the same time.
You’ll also have a cholesterol blood test and body mass index (BMI) measurement. These biometrics are important in goal-setting and diet customization.
Dr. Stallings recommends a treatment plan if you have a chronic disease, and she incorporates your weight loss plan into your approach. Your weight loss plan includes full nutrition support, which consists of customized diet recommendations, food shopping advice, and more.
Active movement, aka exercise, is a great way to speed up your weight loss. It also has benefits for your overall wellness, like lowering your blood pressure, reducing heart disease risk, and preventing type 2 diabetes. After weight loss, exercise is important in maintaining your weight long term.
For many overweight and obese men and women, emotional eating — using unhealthy food for comfort when you’re stressed or sad — is a common issue. Dr. Stallings works with you to address emotional eating. She can help you identify your triggers and change behaviors to take control of your emotional eating.
At MUST Clinic, Dr. Stallings takes a whole-person approach to weight loss because it’s the best way to lay the groundwork for long-term success.
It depends on your specific needs and medical situation. In general, regular weight management appointments are important because they give you the resources and support you need to succeed.
MUST Clinic makes weight loss support easy. Dr. Stallings comes to you in person or meets with you online through virtual appointments. All appointments start with a phone visit, and the mobile clinic is thoroughly clean and sanitized
Good support is a MUST when you’re losing weight, so call MUST Clinic or click the online scheduler to arrange your appointment today. | <urn:uuid:3bf498dc-168e-4480-b28b-21641e8184a2> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://www.mustclinic.health/services/weight-loss | 2022-10-01T23:44:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030336978.73/warc/CC-MAIN-20221001230322-20221002020322-00676.warc.gz | en | 0.932787 | 632 | [

From a humble beginning over 25 years ago, Siksha ‘O’ Anusandhan Deemed to be University, known more by its acronym SOA, has emerged as a shining academic edifice today which has illuminated the educational skyline of eastern India.
A socially inclusive institution of higher education focused on quality education and innovative research, SOA has been churning out professionals in varied fields ready to meet the requirements and challenges of different sectors.
Coming into existence on July 17, 2007 when the Government conferred on it the status of a Deemed to be University under Section 3 of the UGC Act, 1956, SOA is considered as a centre of superlative professional education today. The university is home to nearly 15,000 students including from 15 foreign countries who have chosen SOA to chart out a future for themselves. The university has a faculty-student ratio of 1:10.75 with the number of faculty with Ph.D or equivalent degrees accounting for more than 75 per cent of the teachers.
Though just over 15 years old, SOA has been continuously listed among the top 25 universities in the country by the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF), instituted by the Ministry of Education in 2016, for seven consecutive years. SOA has been ranked 16th in the country by NIRF in the just released rankings for 2022 making it the third best university in eastern region.
SOA’s vision is to become a leading institution of higher learning in its chosen areas to prepare future generations through quality teaching and innovative research. Its mission is to become responsible, enlightened and productive citizens.
Already a name to reckon with in the realm of higher learning, SOA reached a huge milestone recently when National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) accredited the university with the highest Grade A++ with a Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of 3.88 out of 4.
The recent decision of the University Grants Commission (UGC) to grade SOA as Category-1 Deemed to be University has come as the newest feather in the university’s already glowing cap.
SOA was globally ranked in the 801-1000 bracket by the prestigious QS World University Ranking for 2022 after being placed in the 401-450 bracket in the QS Asia University Ranking in 2021. It was awarded Diamond University rating by QS I-GAUGE for outstanding performance in 2020. SOA was also the only institute in eastern India to get QS I-GAUGE E-LEAD (E-Learning Excellence for Academic Digitisation) for conducting online teaching-learning during the Covid-19 lockdown.
SOA found place in the Times Higher Education (THE) World Ranking, being listed in the 1201 plus category in university rankings, while it got ranked in the 601-800 bracket in engineering and technology and computer science in 2022. SOA was ranked in 601 plus category in health sciences and was placed in 401-500 bracket in THE Asia University Rankings in the same year. It was ranked in the 401 plus bracket in THE Young University Ranking and listed in 501 plus category in THE Emerging Economies University rankings in 2022.
SOA is recognized as Institution of Happiness (IOH) by QS-I-Gauge for the year 2021-22.
SOA has got the status of UGC 12(B) and is recognized as a DSIR-SIRO organization.
Significantly, 13 of the researchers in SOA found place in Stanford University’s prestigious world ranking of two per cent scientists which was drawn up on the basis of a subject-wise analysis in 2021.
SOA offers 24 Under Graduate and 67 Post Graduate, 15 Post Masters, Ph.D. and Post Doctoral programs in engineering and technology, management, medical sciences, dental sciences, nursing, pharmaceutical sciences, biotechnology, hospital management, hospitality and tourism management, law and agricultural sciences.
The university follows a teaching-learning process grounded on outcome and project based learning which has been paying rich dividends as students have been receiving lucrative placement offers every year. About 91 per cent of SOA’s engineering students graduating in 2021 have received job offers in top notch companies staving off the huge worldwide impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Five of SOA’s engineering programs have been accredited by National Board of Accreditation (NBA) while three have been accredited by Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) of USA.
Focused on research, the university has 9324 Scopus indexed publications to its credit so far with h-Index of 85 while Web of Science publications contained 5287 papers with h-Index of 77. The university has set up 16 research centres to promote research work in 26 thrust areas.
SOA runs the Institute of Medical Sciences and SUM Hospital, its faculty of medicine, with 1600 beds which has become one of the most sought after healthcare destinations in the east. The teaching hospital, with NABH and NABL accreditation, has 250 MBBS seats.
SOA was in the forefront in Odisha’s battle against Covid-19 when the first wave swept through the state in 2020 making exemplary contribution towards prevention and control of the pandemic. It set up four stand alone Covid Hospitals in Bhubaneswar, Kendrapara, Talcher and Chandpur in collaboration with the state government and ran two Covid Care Centres at Jatni and Jamujhari accounting for 2341 beds.
When the second wave struck early in 2021, SOA operated as many as five Covid Hospitals at Bhubaneswar, Chandpur, Puri, Talcher and Kendrapara (besides a Covid Care Centre at Jatni) having more than 2200 beds with around 500 doctors from Institute of Medical Sciences and SUM Hospital engaged in treating the patients assisted by nurses and paramedics who worked round-the-clock.
Message from Prof. (Dr.) Manojranjan Nayak, Founder president, SOA
‘A dream doesn’t become a reality through magic, it takes sweat, determination and hard work’, said Collin Powell, former US Secretary of State.
As we look back on Siksha ‘O’ Anusandhan’s journey spanning a quarter century, our experience matches the above statement of the renowned US army officer and diplomat.
SOA, as our university is popularly known, has faced numerous difficulties and obstacles in its endeavour to develop as a multi-disciplinary institution of higher education focusing on quality education and focused research. Its rise to be counted as the 16th best university in the country by NIRF is a testimony to the unrelenting effort of its faculty, researchers, staff and students to excel.
As a happy coincidence, the University Grants Commission has also conferred on SOA the status of Category 1 Deemed to be University as per the provisions of the UGC regulations which will entail a lot of autonomy to expand its activities.
On SOA’s 16th Foundation Day, I greet all whose contribution has helped the university to grow and expand over the years. The journey has just started and we have a long road ahead. I am confident that the willingness of the stakeholders to strive for excellence will help SOA reach its destination. | <urn:uuid:b46e5f76-edfc-4534-97dd-7e931cd73049> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://www.prameyanews.com/siksha-o-anusandhan-a-melting-pot-of-quality-academics-and-research-2/ | 2022-10-02T01:13:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030336978.73/warc/CC-MAIN-20221001230322-20221002020322-00676.warc.gz | en | 0.954972 | 1,502 | [
