Announcing Scania Finance New Zealand
Posted: 05-May-2020 |
Scania New Zealand is pleased to announce its new business offering - Scania Finance New Zealand.
Scania New Zealand's goal is to provide total solutions to all our customers, and as the Scania business continues to grow and develop across New Zealand, this offering of a tailored financing opportunity to our clients felt like an obvious and timely extension of that service.
"This is an exciting development as we look to grow our customer's businesses together," says Scania New Zealand Sales Director, Deon Stephens.
"It represents much more than just offering finance on a truck – it's about being a trusted adviser to our customers.
"It's also about knowing we have the tools in the toolbox to support our customers within the transport industry and offering them solutions to help their businesses remain profitable and unlock their potential." Scania Finance New Zealand is an extension of what has been available in Australia with Scania.
Wayne Thomason, National Sales Manager for Scania Finance Australia and New Zealand says by opening this finance business in New Zealand means being able to help finance more Kiwi drivers into the seat of their next Scania.
"This includes creating new roles of our Business Development Managers. Having them on the ground working directly with our customers to help fund their new Scania plus the trailer that runs with that vehicle."
Two new Business Development Managers will begin their Scania Finance roles this month based in both Auckland and Christchurch - and work closely with the Scania sales team. | <urn:uuid:7f6703a1-2b6d-4f59-9983-737ae86137ba> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://nztruckanddriver.co.nz/road-torque-news/announcing-scania-finance-new-zealand | 2021-03-05T07:32:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178370239.72/warc/CC-MAIN-20210305060756-20210305090756-00157.warc.gz | en | 0.968174 | 320 | [

You will the standard Mac "GOOOOSH" sound, but keep holding the keys down until you hear this startup sound 3 or 4 times. Let go, and your computer will probably continue booting faster than it ever has. | <urn:uuid:0c4398ca-5f6e-443b-a117-68dce25cd85f> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://tips.petervcook.com/2005/01/mac-tip-of-day.html | 2021-03-08T12:17:54Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178375439.77/warc/CC-MAIN-20210308112849-20210308142849-00477.warc.gz | en | 0.932837 | 106 | [

Homeowners Insurance Lapse: What Happens If There's a Gap in Coverage
Homeowner’s insurance is important whether you have a mortgage or you’ve paid off your house. This type of insurance protects your home from different perils like theft, fire, and natural disaster.
Premiums are often paid with the monthly mortgage payment, if you’re financing your house. Or, you can send payments to your insurance company if you’ve paid off your loan.
Homeowner’s insurance only offers protection for as long as you pay your premium.
So if you stop making your payments — or if your insurer cancels your policy — this causes a lapse in coverage.
What are your options after a gap in coverage?
Here’s what you need to know about lapsing on your homeowner’s insurance, as well as ways to avoid loss of coverage.
What is a Homeowner’s Insurance Lapse?
A lapse in homeowner’s insurance is a period where you stop making your insurance payments.
Going without coverage for any length of time is considered a lapse.
But since most people pay homeowner’s insurance with their mortgage payment, you might ask: how does a lapse happen?
What Causes a Lapse in Coverage?
If you own your home outright, your insurance can lapse if you fail to pay premiums to your insurance provider.
After missing a payment, many insurance companies give their customers a 30-day grace period.
If you don’t pay by the end of this grace period, they’ll cancel your coverage.
Keep in mind:
If you have a mortgage, keep in mind that you’re not required to pay homeowner’s insurance with your mortgage payment. Many homeowners choose this out of convenience. But there’s the option to make premiums to your insurance provider. So if you stop paying your premium, this also causes a lapse in coverage.
Whether you have a mortgage or a paid-off house, your homeowner’s insurance company can cancel your policy for other reasons, too.
1. You lied on your insurance application
Home insurance companies can cancel a policy for various reasons, including lying on your application.
You might state that your property has certain security features. This allows you to qualify for an insurance discount.
Or, you might state that you don’t own a pet. If your homeowner’s insurance company conducts an inspection and finds out that you lied, they can drop your coverage.
2. You haven’t maintained the property
A homeowner’s insurance inspection might conclude that the home is in poor condition.
You might have fire hazards on the property, or certain parts of your home might be unsafe.
Your company will allow a certain amount of time to correct these issues. If you don’t comply, they can cancel your policy.
3. You’re too risky to insure
Additionally, your insurer might cancel your policy if your risk level increases.
Some home insurance companies have restrictions on certain dog breeds. If you get a dog on their restricted list, they may cancel your policy. In which case, you’ll have to find another provider.
Your insurance company may also cancel your policy if you file too many claims.
Insurance is for your protection.
But a lot of claims within a short time span indicates too many risks in your home.
What Happens If There’s a Lapse in Coverage?
It’s important to avoid any lapses in coverage. Your property is your biggest asset. So it can be costly to fix repairs or damages from fire or natural disaster.
Without insurance, you would have to pay for repairs out of your own funds. Homeowner’s insurance, on the other hand, protects your investment and alleviates some of the financial burden.
When you still have a mortgage
Mortgage lenders often require borrowers to have homeowner’s insurance. They have to protect their investment, too.
So if you allow your homeowner’s insurance to lapse and you don’t reinstate your coverage or purchase another policy, your mortgage company will purchase insurance on your behalf.
Your mortgage payment will then increase to compensate for this added expense. Your lender will pay premiums via your escrow account.
But while this is an option, it’s more expensive to have your mortgage company buy insurance for you.
More difficult/expensive to get coverage in the future
Another reason why you shouldn’t allow a lapse in coverage is that it becomes harder to get future insurance.
If another insurance company discovers a previous gap in coverage, or learns a provider dropped your coverage, you’re deemed a risky applicant.
This isn’t to say you can’t get future coverage, but you’ll pay more for it.
How to Avoid a Lapse in Coverage
The best way to avoid a lapse in homeowner’s insurance is to pay your premiums on time.
If you experience a hardship that prevents making a payment, call your insurance company immediately. See if you can get a payment extension. Or, your agent might make adjustments to your policy to lower your premium.
Also, don’t do anything that will increase your risk level. The higher your risk, the greater the likelihood of having your policy canceled.
Before getting a certain breed of dog or a trampoline, contact your agent to see whether this decision could impact your coverage. It also helps to be as transparent and honest as possible when getting a policy.
Some insurance companies will conduct inspections. So if you misrepresent anything on your insurance application, they’ll likely find out.
The good news:
Many insurance companies give policyholders time to correct issues that trigger a cancellation of their policy. You can protect your policy by acting quickly and making improvements to your home.
What to Do If Your Policy Has Already Lapse?
If your home insurance policy has lapsed due to unpaid premiums or cancellation, contact your agent to ask about reinstatement policies.
Sometimes, the company will reinstate your policy if you pay past-due premiums within a certain amount of time.
The sooner you act, the better.
If you need a cheaper premium, talk to your agent about discounts.
Typically, you can save money by bundling your insurance and getting multiple policies with the same company.
In addition to having homeowner’s insurance with your provider, you can also get auto insurance or life insurance through them.
Even after canceling your policy, your insurance provider might offer reinstatement if you take steps to minimize your risk.
Your agent can provide suggestions on how to make your property safer, thus insurable.
Keep in mind, some insurance is better than nothing.
So if your insurer cancels your policy, you’ll need to look into high-risk insurance options.
Fair Access to Insurance Requirements plans (FAIR) are one alternative. Just know that you’ll pay a higher premium due to your higher risk.
Tips for Managing Homeowners Insurance
Here are a few tips to keep your homeowner’s insurance policy in good standing:
- Only file a claim when absolutely necessary. Even though homeowner’s insurance protects against damage, filing too many claims can cause a provider to drop your coverage. For minor damage to your property, see if it’s feasible to pay repairs out-of-pocket.
- Take photos of your property. Your insurance company may inspect the property before finalizing the policy. To avoid having your policy canceled upon inspection, take photos or video of the property for your records. This documents the property’s condition at the time of application.
- Keep your property in good condition. Properly maintaining your property over the years can also reduce the likelihood of having your policy canceled.
- Don’t let the policy lapse. Having your homeowner’s insurance policy lapse for even a single day can trigger higher insurance rates.
- Compare high-risk insurance plans. If you’ve had your policy dropped and you need a high-risk policy, always compare plans with different insurance companies. This can help you find the best price.
- Never ignore a cancellation letter from your insurance provider. Often times, you can keep your policy by addressing your insurer’s concerns. Contact your company and get advice on how to keep your policy current.
- Don’t let your mortgage company purchase your insurance. If your mortgage company purchases a policy for you, you’ll have limited coverage. Although more expensive, these policies might only protect the actual structure, and not your personal property. These policies might also exclude other benefits like loss of use coverage.
Homeowner’s insurance is crucial, as it protects your most valuable asset. Theft, fire, or natural disaster can result in costly damages. Without a policy, you’re responsible for the financial loss.
It’s not only important to have homeowner’s insurance, though. It’s also important to keep your insurance.
Always pay your premiums on time and consult your provider if you run into financial hardship.

Public Transport and road access to North Wicklow ignored.
The Plan seems to ignore Wicklow in spite it having grown more than 3 of the 4 Dublin Councils. 45% of the population of Wicklow lives in the Metropolitan area and is thus obliged to accept high density development as happened with Charlesland. This % is much higher than other Mid East Counties. Population targets handed down to Councils insist on a large expansion of zoned land, for example, Greystones was required to rezone extra land for 24,000 compared to a current 17,500. The NTA must provide public transport and roads to cope.
Regional Planning Guidelines for the Greater Dublin Area 2010-2022. This is the superior planning document for the GDA and it states ‘an overall strategy developed as part of the NTA Vision document, a range of actions to improve the functioning of the M50/M-N11 area including measures such as traffic management and upgrade works, expansion of road capacity, bus priority, improved rail services and other identified options’.
This is the top listed project in the RPG Road Section. Of the 6 major radial routes out of Dublin it is the only one which has not been modernised. In addition Mr Creegan, of the NTA, gave a commitment to the RPG office that the NTA Strategy included dealing with this problem (more details below). The current Implementation Plan has ignored this high priority aspect of the RPGs and Mr Creegans commitment, given as part of the approval process of the NTA Strategy. The following items are among those that should be included:
Rail. The frequency needs to be improved. A report some years ago for Wicklow Co Co said that the most congested single track section was around Bray Head, which was at capacity, and recommended a passing loop there and at around Newcastle. However double tracking from Greystones Station to the South entrance to Bray Head tunnels would be much more effective. This would allow more flexibility for delays and allow a frequency increase. There looks to be enough space for this and Irish Rail asked for enough space to be left for a second track when the Harbour Plan was being developed.
Normally there is a 20 mph speed limit between Dun Laoghaire and Sandycove stations. This is too low for a modern rail system and work should be done on the track to speed it up. The journey time of 55 minutes to Greystones is long for a 20 mile journey.
Luas. This needs to be extended to Bray and possibly Fassaroe.
Bus. Express busses, with bus lanes and avoiding Bray Main Street, need to be used more to Greystones and other places. The NRA report (see below) states that better bus services will not work well with the present congestion on the N11 at Fassaroe. Thus this needs to be improved. More bus information signs are needed specifically at Blacklion, Charlesland and Kilcoole.
Further details of these points are below.
1. M50/N11 Status in RPGs as the top Road and Transport Scheme for Implementation to 2022
Regional Planning Guidelines for the Greater Dublin Area 2010-2022 S6.3.2 Road Transport
In addition to the above, it is recommended that relevant Local Authorities and transport departments undertake, as part of an overall strategy developed as part of the NTA Vision document, a range of actions to improve the functioning of the M50/M-N11 area including measures such as traffic management and upgrade works, expansion of road capacity, bus priority, improved rail services and other identified options.
Table 9 RPG. Proposed Transport Investment Proposals for GDA.
Undertake, as part of an overall strategy developed by relevant stakeholders a solution and range of actions and works to improve the functionality of the strategic road network, including the M50/N-M11 area, consistent with the NTA Strategy.
The only other road schemes mentioned in the RPGs are the Outer Orbital Route and Eastern Bypass both of which are to be implemented after 2022. The requirement to improve the M50/N11 and the N11 at Arklow are the only other schemes explicitly listed in the RPGs, the guiding planning document. The Arklow scheme is underway which leaves the M50/N11 as the only other one explicitly listed for the period to 2022.
2. NTA letter to Dublin Regional Authority, 20/7/2011
During the Statutory approval process of the NTA Strategy the RPG officials wrote to the NTA to ask how the strategy conformed to the RPGs. Mr Creegan’s (Director of Transport Planning and Investment) reply to the Dublin Regional Authority states that their Strategy ‘provides a comprehensive commitment to addressing the functionality and performance of the strategic road network (which includes the interface of the M11 and M50 motorways)’. I can provide you with a copy if you wish. The current Implementation Plan does not mention this at all.
3. NTA Proposals for Phasing… Transport Infrastructure … Cherrywood, conflict with NRA N11 Corridor Review Report.
The NTA proposals on Cherrywood SDZ state (10.6 p49) ‘it is necessary to review road capacity (M11/M50) over time as development occurs in Cherrywood’. This conflicts with the NRA Report below which states ‘it is not suited to cater for current traffic volumes’.
4. N11 Corridor Review Fassaroe Junction to Kilmacanoge March 2010. Roughan & O’Donovan-Aecom.
This is a comprehensive study of the problem produced for the NRA. It states (p3) ‘because of the piecemeal nature of the historical development of the N11 mainline in the Bray area there are a number of aspects of the route that are inconsistent with the overall N11 route standard, are non compliant with current road design standards and/or not suited to cater for current traffic volumes’. It lists a number of ways of improving the road.
It also states (p5) that putting the LUAS to Fassaroe will not improve traffic as it will still have to travel through the congested section to reach a Park n’ Ride there. In my view that Park n’ Ride would reduce N11 mainline capacity because of the large volume of merging/demerging.
‘Major public transport improvements are required to provide an alternative to car transport along the N11 corridor…enhanced bus services are probably the only realistic option for improving public transport links to the region south of Bray. Long distance express services would use the N11 route and would benefit from improvements to that route to reduce delays and congestion’.
Although the RPGs, the superior planning policy, list this road as the top one for improvement in the GDA no action has taken place to implement a single part of these plans in 3 years. Specifically these should be the interim ones in the merging report, item 4 Link N11 Western Parallel Road and 3 Upgrade Fassaroe Interchange. It would also be useful for the NRA, the NTA and the 2 Councils to set up a working group to implement these proposals. | <urn:uuid:eafcc57a-27a2-4efb-852c-54cba8cb42fb> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | http://derekmitchell.ie/submission-to-nta-integrated-implementation-plan-to-2018/ | 2021-02-25T12:48:39Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178351134.11/warc/CC-MAIN-20210225124124-20210225154124-00197.warc.gz | en | 0.942295 | 1,480 | [

Road bridge over River Teme, now pedestrian bridge. Dated 1905. Reinforced concrete, and brick. Single-span semi-circular arch aligned north-east/south-west about 27 metres across and four yards wide with pierced openings in spandrels. Cast iron railings with ball finials and standards spaced at about two yard intervals also with ball finials. Brick abutments with concrete capping. At north-east end are remains of an earlier bridge (probably early C18); brick with sandstone coping and splayed ends terminating in circular piers. Above the archway on both sides of the bridge is written "REBUILT BY WORCESTERSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL 1905". The earliest recorded bridge on the site was a wooden structure of 1548. This was rebuilt in brick probably in the early C18 and this brick bridge was replaced by a single-span iron one in 1797, the predecessor of the present bridge. A new road bridge was built in 1973 about 45 metres downstream. Although the bridge is dated 1905 it was not actually opened until 1907 because of structural problems.
The asset was previously listed twice also at List entry 1156623. That entry was removed from the List on 4 November 2016.

Thank goodness for good old Seattle Process. Although often damned as anti-progressive, Seattle Process also has — more than once — saved the city from major disasters.
One of the most dastardly of the threatened disasters was a 1960s plan by the State Highway Department (predecessor of the Washington State Department of Transportation) to impose a griddle of freeways across Seattle to accommodate hordes of ex-urbanites whom planners believed would choose to settle in the suburbs. Their plan was a Mid-20th Century nightmare, involving a new North-South freeway, an additional Lake Washington bridge or even two and an elevated viaduct walling off South Lake Union.
The backbone of the system was the R. H. Thomson Expressway, a six-lane freeway designed to stretch from the Duwamish to Bothell, destroying the Washington Park Arboretum, bisecting a dozen family neighborhoods and paving a major portion of the city. The Thomson was nothing less than a tsunami of cement, blessed by state and city engineers. That the horror never happened was thanks to some feisty citizens, who organized into two citizen groups, took advantage of process and, quite improbably, ended up winning.
What we are left with, the only tangible tombstone, is a pair of ramps to nowhere, reminders of the never-built R. H. Thomson. The ramps stand at the North end of the Arboretum and have been popular for decades with adventurous youth who have used them as diving and sunbathing platforms.
With the projected rebuilding of SR 520, the plan now is to tear those ramps down. However, there are some — Crosscut columnist Knute Berger among them — who believe the ramps or some portion of them, ought to be saved as a memorial to grassroots democracy. A group called ARCH — Activists Remembered, Celebrated and Honored — wants to keep two pillars and a cross piece of the old freeway, an archway, standing as a monument.
Those certainly are my sentiments. In my pre-newspaper days, I was one of that small rowdy group of citizens who opposed the Thomson and even named one of the opposition groups CAF (short for Citizens Against Freeways).
However, I have traveled to the Arboretum and talked with members of the Seattle Parks Board and the Arboretum Botanical Garden Committee, some of whom voted in 2011 to remove the ramps, citing environmental and safety issues. The Arboretum activists have declined to reconsider, although they have said that they would be willing to consider a monument, perhaps one containing a piece of one of the ramps.
As a veteran of that war, I am personally pleased to hear that the Arboretum officials are amenable to working on something significant. It would be tragic to think that there would not be some way to commemorate the decades long struggle, a classic David and Goliath encounter.
The scenes from that clash of wills still haunt and comfort me. I recall one long afternoon in Seattle City Council chambers when activists joined hands with forces from the Central Area. CAF volunteers were seated in back rows and joined hands with Black Panthers who yelled out that, if freeway builders dared pave parts of their city, they would fire the place. They yelled, “Burn, baby burn.”
I cheered then and still cheer in memory of indomitable activists like University professors Maynard Arsove and Bill Frantilla of CARHT (Citizens Against R. H. Thomson) and CAF founders Margaret Tunks, Dave and Joan LeFebvre, Laurie and Gary Ness and Lois and Jack Brooks.
Credit also goes to some right-thinking local officials like former mayors Wes Uhlman and Charlie Royer and former councilmembers Tim Hill and Phyllis Lamphere. When I look at those ramps to nowhere I think of all those citizens, all the twists and turns and I thank goodness we had Seattle process to use to defend our city. | <urn:uuid:ccb25017-9c4d-40d8-b2ce-aaf1201b8abd> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://crosscut.com/2014/05/ramps-nowhere-protests-memorial-jean-godden | 2021-02-25T14:12:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178351134.11/warc/CC-MAIN-20210225124124-20210225154124-00197.warc.gz | en | 0.969265 | 820 | [

We’re aware that many of our readers have hit political overload after the events of the last eleven weeks and therefore you’ve largely missed out on the frenzy the drunk-on-power Left has been on since the presidential election. The thing about a frenzy, though, is it doesn’t stop until it’s touched everything near it.
And the frenzy on the Left won’t stop until they’ve done a maximum amount of damage. For example, these particular loons are trying to incite a demographic which statistically accesses health care least advantageously than any other to…access less health care.
A press release this morning…
LOUISIANA CENTER FOR HEALTH EQUITY CALLS FOR BOYCOTT OF OCHSNER HEALTH AMID ALLEGATIONS OF DISPARATE TREATMENT OF BLACK PATIENTS
“Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health care is the most shocking and inhumane.” ~Martin Luther King
(Baton Rouge – January 18, 2021) The Louisiana Center for Health Equity (click link to view part 1 of the recording, view part 2 here) is calling for a boycott of Ochsner Health. The Center made this announcement during a virtual gathering and press conference on January 13. The issues of concern with Ochsner Health to the Louisiana Center for Health Equity are: 1) using our intellectual property, the Louisiana Center for Health Equity’s bold vision and LA40by2030 initiative without consulting us and 2) establishing another center in Louisiana with the same name “Center for Health Equity” and 3) allegations of Ochsner Health’s disparate treatment of Black patients with COVID 19 as detailed in an investigation by ProPublica, “Sent Home to Die.”
“We are aware that many community members seek primary care and specialty care with Ochsner Health. We by no means are asking the community or anyone to jeopardize their health in any way, but where there is an opportunity for choice to consider seeing other healthcare providers. The Louisiana Center for Health Equity is asking the community to boycott Ochsner Health until a full and complete investigation is completed which includes interviews with loved ones of patients who died of COVID-19,” said Diane Hargrove Jupiter, Chair, Board of Directors, Louisiana Center for Health Equity. The Louisiana Center for Health Equity is asking the community to share with us cases of disparate patient treatment by Ochsner Health by contacting us to share your story via email [email protected] or text 504-858-3998 or 225-772-7029.
“The Louisiana Center for Health Equity is presently experiencing first-hand Ochsner Health’s treatment of Black and Brown people. Ochsner Health is claiming to be committed to reducing health disparities and inequities in Louisiana. However, they have totally disregarded the only statewide organization with a decade long track record of doing this work and just blatantly plagiarized our intellectual property,” said Alma C. Stewart, President and Founder, Louisiana Center for Health Equity.
The Louisiana Center for Health Equity is also concerned that Ochsner Health appears to be becoming a monopoly in some areas of Louisiana that may limit patient’s choices, especially Medicaid patients. Furthermore, we believe these actions by Ochsner Health suggest a perceived pattern of systemic and pervasive disparate and unjust treatment of Black and Brown people based upon their unfair attack on the Louisiana Center Health Equity. All of this is happening during the COVID 19 pandemic that has itself had an alarming disproportionate impact on the Black community.
The Center is most known for leading the advocacy for Medicaid expansion through our Campaign for Healthcare for Everyone-Louisiana that has had among the largest economic impacts throughout Louisiana in our recent history while stabilizing our healthcare system and affording over 500,000 adults health insurance coverage. January 13th marked the 5th year anniversary of Medicaid expansion in Louisiana.
You’ve very likely never heard of the Louisiana Center for Health Equity, or Alma Stewart, its president. This is one of those fly-by-night non-governmental organizations which catches funding from an out-of-state left-wing foundation, and it serves as a vehicle for Stewart, who’s a former state government bureaucrat, to shop herself out as a consultant on things like HR and health care. Essentially, the way this works is it’s the old Jesse Jackson scam – they shake companies down for funding, and if they’re not satisfied with the results they’ll scream racism until they are.
Obviously Ochsner, who everybody understands didn’t have all that firm a handle on how to treat COVID at the beginning (nobody in Louisiana did, by the way, but lots of states were just as bad; consider New York, New Jersey and Michigan and their stashing COVID patients in nursing homes for a maximum body count), hasn’t proven its wokeness – so Ochsner gets called racist and they get a boycott.
Except what does boycotting Ochsner, which runs some of the best hospitals in the state, do for health care in the black community?
Not a lot.
Talk to doctors, particularly ER doctors, around the state and they’ll commonly tell you they see lots of black patients coming into the ER with severe medical conditions that have gone untreated for weeks, months and years. They’re on Medicaid, which the Louisiana Center for Health Equity has spent the last decade signing people up for and which does nothing to improve health care for its clients, so they have at least a semblance of health insurance coverage, and yet they don’t go to the doctor and don’t even have a clue about preventive medicine. So things like diabetes and COPD get a million times worse and then finally they’re on death’s door when they finally end up in the ER, and at that point there isn’t a whole lot the docs can do to fix them.
So boycotting Ochsner and putting out the message that the Ochsner hospitals are run by racists who want to kill black people is likely to…help bad healthcare outcomes?
Everybody realizes that Medicaid pays next to nothing in reimbursements to hospitals and health clinics, right? So if a population which is overwhelmingly on Medicaid were to boycott Ochsner, meaning its patient-load becomes more oriented to private health insurance customers, it probably doesn’t do a lot to negatively affect its bottom line.
Of course, the aim here is to create bad publicity, not a negative bottom line. The Left has demanded a boycott of Rouse’s grocery stores, and they’re more full now than they were before Donald Rouse, Sr. showed up in DC on January 6. But the public perception is that’s an “embattled” business, and most corporate managers are terrified of being in the crosshairs of the Left.
Even if the outrage is unjust.
Ochsner is going to fix this by paying legal settlements to the families of the COVID patients it treated with some degree of negligence, which everybody knows is likely to happen with respect to lots of hospitals around the country. And they’ll probably cough up some danegeld to Alma Stewart and/or her organization, probably by hiring her to advise them on how better they can kiss the ring of the Left. And all this will go away until the next demand for tribute comes down the pike.
And will any of that help to create better health outcomes in the black community? | <urn:uuid:73ed6f51-c26f-45eb-852b-b1959aaf134a> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://thehayride.com/2021/01/the-left-is-calling-for-black-people-to-boycott-ochsner-hospitals/ | 2021-02-25T13:17:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178351134.11/warc/CC-MAIN-20210225124124-20210225154124-00197.warc.gz | en | 0.951049 | 1,593 | [

This is a really fun main event!
I told myself I was going to stay away from picking it because I wanted to enjoy the fight and main events are generally devoid of betting value due to all the attention they receive from sharps and the public.
This one, though…
I really think I have a good read on it.
This doesn’t mean either fighter is a slam dunk, at all, though!
I think the betting line is off.
Derrick Lewis is the favorite here and I understand that but I don’t think it should be by very much.
I know he knocks fools out and Alexei has been knocked out a couple of times recently by big hitters like Derrick.
BetOnline.AG has the betting odds for this fight among others. Remember to bet directly from this article and let’s dive into this pick!
Derrick Lewis (-195) vs Alexei Oleinik (+165)
This is striker vs grappler if we have ever seen it!
Derrick Lewis, if you may have guessed, has zero career submission victories. He does, however, have 10 of 14 of his wins in the UFC by KO/TKO. 6 out of Alexei’s 8 UFC wins have come by submission.
When you have a KO artist vs a submission artist, the first question you have to ask yourself is who is the better wrestler?
Derrick Lewis has really only been taken down and controlled by one guy and that was one of the greatest fighters of all-time in Daniel Cormier. He has been taken down, though, by several of his opponents.
Derrick’s biggest advantage in the grappling realm is his ability to stand back up after he is taken down. Even though Lewis has won his last two fights, he was taken down 3 times in each contest.
Derrick gets away with hitting his butt or even back and making his way back to his feet because the heavyweight division doesn’t have many high-level submission artists.
With the exception of maybe Frank Mir, Oleinik is the #1 submission artist in the history of the heavyweight division in all of MMA.
If he gets you down, you probably aren’t getting back up without a tap or a nap.
With that being said, the Russian’s subs are better than his takedowns. That’s normally how it goes for guys who like to finish on the ground.
Alexei has the cardio advantage here and he loves loves loves to push the pace. He could very well push his 43-year-old chin into a right hand from The Black Beast, yes, but at (+165), I like the Russian.
I cap this fight nearly even but (-120) for Lewis due to the 8-year age gap so this is more or less a pick’em fight.
Lewis is notorious for having bad cardio or a “bad back” as he likes to put it and the pace of the Russian is tremendous for the heavyweight division.
While I do favor Derrick the farther the fight goes because he just needs one punch, I don’t think the fight will make it there.
I can see the Russian getting a sub in the first or second round.
Chris Weidman (-140) vs Omari Akhmedov (+120)
Oh Chris Weidman… How sweet it is to see you struggle.
Not only did you dethrone my hero but after a traumatic leg break from Silva in the rematch, you immediately ran around the Octagon with your hands high with pride.
— UFC (@ufc) July 6, 2020
I get it. I can check kicks pretty well myself and my sparring partners know they could be devastating without shin guards. So, it wasn’t an accident. Chris won fair and square but go back and watch any Thai fight or even Tyrone Spong in GLORY and you will see zero celebrations from the victor.
I don’t want to insult my countrymen and say it was kind of the American thing to do but it sorta was. We can be an arrogant bunch and it goes back to a point I make quite often about MMA fighters particularly those with a wrestling base.
They are all about winning and winning at all costs even if it means avoiding the fight within the fight and focusing solely on position and not finishing the fight.
- You first must show heart. That is the first line of respect.
- Secondly, you show your skill.
- Then, you get the win.
I’m not saying either philosophy is right or wrong. It’s just different.
- As a martial artist, I favor the Thai way.
- As a fan, I lean that direction as well.
- As a bettor, though, no way!
Give me the lay and pray guys all day. Round winners, wall n stall, etc. The fighters I used to hate for playing to the judges are the ones I cherish as a handicapper and bettor.
Chris Weidman isn’t the best example of a wrestler who plays to the judges but he has the perfect opportunity to be that guy on Saturday night.
Chris, even though his chin may be gone and he has never been the same fighter post-USADA, is still one of the best wrestlers in the UFC. His single leg takedown is legendary.
Akhmedov has a good base and will have a speed advantage as he recently came up from 170 pounds to fight at 185.
I don’t think his takedown defense is that good, though. If Chris gets in deep on any welterweight’s leg, I think they are going down.
Omari can pop, though, and Chris’s chin is kaput. That is the risk here. I don’t at all think the underdog will win a decision.
Chris needs a win here more than ever and I believe he will do what it takes to make that happen.
Omari’s cardio is also an issue but so is Chris’s chin after cutting a lot of weight. So, this fight isn’t a blowout for Weidman. Omari isn’t a 235 pound killer like Dom Reyes either, though.
We only need to cap Chris around 66% to win to make a play here, though, and I believe we can do that.
I think the Long Islander wins 2 out of 3 against Omari. He’s bigger and a better wrestler who has fought the much better competition in his UFC career.
Both the main and co-main events are interesting fights!
The main event between two of the best KO and Sub artists in the UFC’s heavyweight division could go either way. So, why are we picking that fight and betting money? Well, the odds don’t reflect our cap of the fight.
- If there is value there and we trust our call, then we make the play.
- If Derrick was the underdog, I might take him.
As for the Weidman fight, I really dislike the guy.
Nobody loves Anderson Silva more than myself and has hurt me just a little bit every single time I have heard his name since 2013.
I feel like he is in a good spot to get a win here, though.
It’s not a great spot. The UFC could have given him someone not as dangerous but a short, counter fighter who used to compete at 170 is a decent matchup.
This allows us to get a good betting line at least.
Get those wagers in now, guys, and enjoy the scraps from Vegas on Saturday! | <urn:uuid:3102853e-b87b-41c2-b2a9-bbf5aabf33c5> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://www.thesportsgeek.com/mma/ufc-apex-derrick-lewis-vs-alexei-oleinik-08-08-2020/ | 2021-02-25T13:21:44Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178351134.11/warc/CC-MAIN-20210225124124-20210225154124-00197.warc.gz | en | 0.972901 | 1,607 | [

A renowned martial arts pioneer is set to bring the ancient art of karate to Bayside's Adria Hotel this Saturday at the 25th Annual Grand National Open Martial Arts Championship, an amateur tournament designed to entertain spectators and promote the sport.
Great Grandmaster Aaron Banks, a 10th-degree red and black belt in karate, has been involved in martial arts since the early 1960s, founding the New York Karate Academy in Midtown Manhattan and performing in shows and demonstrations around the world.
This is the sixth year Banks, a martial arts promoter, has brought his tournament to Bayside. He hoped the thrill of seeing other amateurs kick, spar and shatter objects with the sheer force and discipline of their bodies would inspire spectators to take up karate.
“This might encourage people to join a school,” he said.
About 100 participants from all over the country have registered for Saturday's tournament, the fifth of its kind at the Adria, said Banks, 75, of Rego Park. The venue was chosen for its proximity to Queens and Long Island, where Shihan Robert Ornes, a master teacher and the event's co-organizer, has a martial arts school.
Aspiring karate masters were set to compete in pee wee, junior, adult and senior divisions in events featuring self-defense moves, sparring, breaking wood and even shattering concrete, Banks said.
Weaponry events will incorporate the short sword, bow staff and even nunchukus, an ancient fighting instrument composed of two short sticks held together by a chain.
Banks' tournament, now in its 25th year, encapsulates his role as both a master and early popularizer of the sport.
“I'm the one that turned martial arts into a form of entertainment,” Banks said. “It wasn't Bruce Lee, it was me.”
Banks was regularly featured on ABC's “Wide World of Sports” and several late-night talk shows in the 1970s and 1980s. He even performed a demonstration for Queen Elizabeth II in London's Royal Albert Hall in 1981.
“I probably wouldn't be alive today if it weren't for martial arts,” said Banks, who was able to quit smoking and drinking because of his involvement in the sport.
Banks, who still performs demonstrations, said martial arts had great mental and physical benefits for practitioners of all ages.
“I learned that it wasn't just about defending oneself,” he said of his own experience. “The discipline was so important, and I developed a tremendous awareness and alertness of my own self.”
The 25th Annual Grand National Open Martial Arts Championship is scheduled for Saturday, June 14, at 11 a.m. at the Adria Hotel, 220-33 Northern Blvd. in Bayside. Admission for spectators is $20 for adults and $10 for children. For more information, call 718-897-4468.

About Us / Our Mission
The Save Our Strays (S.O.S.) Animal Shelter was founded in 1981 to rescue stray and unwanted dogs and cats. Six years of hard work by dedicated volunteers and financial contributions from individuals and businesses allowed us to open our no-kill shelter in 1987. We are a private, 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization that relies exclusively on contributions and fundraising.
S.O.S. focuses the majority of its efforts in three areas. First, and foremost, S.O.S. provides a safe home for unwanted dogs and cats. Secondly, it tries to place these animals in good homes. Finally, S.O.S. seeks to educate the public about dog and cat overpopulation and the benefits of adopting a companion pet from a shelter.
S.O.S. serves this community and is dedicated to maintaining a no-kill shelter. Our past and present renovation and expansion projects reflect our commitment to ending the tragedy of pet overpopulation. While we unfortunately have to turn many animals away due to our small facility and small staff, we have rescued, rehabilitated, spayed/neutered, and adopted out over 3,000 pets.
Your support for our organization and your tax deductible donations can assist us in ending the needless suffering of thousands of animals.

Scientists recorded in 2020 the 28 shortest days since 1960. Therefore, the Earth’s rush to complete its turns around its own axis led to the days ending a few milliseconds earlier than the average. The event is not particularly alarming, given that the planet’s rotation varies slightly constantly, driven by variations in atmospheric pressure, winds, ocean currents and the movement of the core.
Thus, this faster spin of our planet could mean a second “negative” leap.
Earth is in a hurry to end its days
In many decades, the Earth was not as fast as what was recorded this year, strange in so many things. Being nothing alarming, it is, however, inconvenient for international timekeepers, who use ultra-precise atomic clocks to measure the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) by which everyone sets their clocks.
When astronomical time, defined by the time it takes the Earth to make a complete rotation, deviates from UTC in more than 0.4 seconds, UTC gets an adjustment.
Coordinated Universal Time, abbreviated UTC (Coordinated Universal Time), also known as civil time, is the reference time zone from which all other time zones in the world are calculated.
These adjustments consisted of adding a “leap second”, also known as “interim second” or “additional second”, to the year at the end of June or December. Thus it was possible to align astronomical time and atomic time again.
These leap seconds have been added, because the general trend of Earth's rotation has decreased since the beginning of accurate satellite measurement in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Since 1972, scientists added leap seconds each year and a half, on average, according to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
The last addition was made in 2016, when on New Year's Eve at 23 hours and 59 seconds, an extra “leap second” was added.
Could the year have less than 365 days?
However, according to Time and Date, the recent acceleration in rotation da Terra made scientists speak for the first time about a second negative leap.
So, instead of adding a second, it may be necessary to subtract one. This is because average day length is 86,400 seconds, but an astronomical day in 2021 will be 0.05 milliseconds shorter, on average. Throughout the year, this will represent a 19 millisecond delay in atomic time.
It is quite possible that a second negative jump is necessary if the Earth's rate of rotation increases further, but it is too early to say whether this is likely to happen.
International discussions are also taking place on the future of the second leap leap, and it is also possible that the need for a negative second leap could lead to the decision to end the second leap forever.
He referred physicist Peter Whibberley of the UK's National Physics Laboratory to The Telegraph.
Earth in 2020 was in a hurry
2020 was already faster than usual, astronomically speaking. According to Time and Date, Earth broke the previous record for the lowest astronomical day, set in 2005, 28 times. The shortest day of that year, July 5, saw Earth complete a 1.0516 millisecond rotation faster than 86,400 seconds.
According to the regulatory authority, the shortest day in 2020 was July 19th, when the planet completed a lap 1.4602 milliseconds faster than 86.400 seconds.
According to NIST, interleaved seconds have their pros and cons. They are useful for ensuring that astronomical observations are synchronized with the clock time, but can be a nuisance for some data logging and telecommunications infrastructure applications.
Some scientists at the International Telecommunication Union have suggested letting the gap between astronomical and atomic time widen until a "leap hour" is needed. This would minimize the disruption to telecommunications (astronomers would have to make their own adjustments in the meantime).
As noted, the International Earth Reference and Rotation Systems Service (IERS) in Paris, France, is the entity responsible for determining whether it is necessary to add or subtract a second leap. Currently, IERS does not have new leap seconds scheduled to be added, according to the IERS Land Orientation Center. | <urn:uuid:e2d1af70-c8f7-4c00-9daf-2d9f608211b5> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://allshapes.net/the-earth-is-spinning-faster-now-than-in-the-past-50-years-whats-up/ | 2021-03-05T10:35:20Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178370752.61/warc/CC-MAIN-20210305091526-20210305121526-00517.warc.gz | en | 0.954077 | 871 | [

You’ve been living your whole life with Toys “R” Us right? Well there might be a chance many kids in the United States won’t be able to get the same experience as you did.
Toys R Us has been around for six decades, and now 800 stores in the U.S. are going to close. On Sept. 18, 2017, they filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy due to the five billion dollars long-term debt. Then on March 14, they announced they were going to close or sell all 800 stored in the U.S.
This is a tragedy for many in the employees because if they do decide on closing Toys “R” Us, they are going to be left with no job. Some of these people need to provide for a family.
According to the article Toys ‘R’ Us will close or sell all US stores it said, “Meanwhile, no buyer has come forward to save Toys ‘R’ Us, and the company acknowledged its creditors are getting antsy. Toys ‘R’ Us said it realized its plan to stay in business through the 2018 holiday season wouldn’t work.”
I was a kid once who loved going to Toys “R” Us and complaining to my parents that I wanted a Barbie. It devastates me just knowing that, soon, Toys “R” Us will close and not every kid is going to get that experience of going to Toys “R” Us and wanting everything. | <urn:uuid:96145cd8-653c-431c-9454-e940e92c2385> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://highschool.latimes.com/la-river-school/no-more-toys-r-us-kids/ | 2021-03-05T10:10:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178370752.61/warc/CC-MAIN-20210305091526-20210305121526-00517.warc.gz | en | 0.980022 | 318 | [

A highly sensitive blood test to detect the level of protein troponin in blood has been developed by researchers from the UK to determine a person’s risk of having a heart attack. The paper is published in The Lancet.
The test is described as fast and convenient since it can be indicator of not performing the tedious heart attack diagnosis for two-thirds of the patients in emergency units, thereby decreasing the costs and procedures of admissions for acute chest pain given that hospital visits for chest pain in the UK are very common. The patients who might subsequently have a heart attack are meticulously monitored. However, most of these people do not actually ultimately have a heart attack. Therefore, the test will hopefully ease the procedures and the patients can be sent home instead of getting admitted to the institution.
“Until now there were no quick ways to rule out a heart attack within the emergency department,” said lead author Anoop Shah from the University of Edinburgh. “We have identified a cardiac troponin concentration (less than 5 nanograms per decilitre. ; <5 ng/L) below which patients are at very low risk of heart attack either during the admission or in the ensuing 30 days.”
The test was applied on 6,000 patients in several hospitals. It was found that 61 % of them – who had less than 5 ng/L of troponin in their blood – could have been safely discharged at early time itself.
“These patients are therefore potentially suitable for immediate and safe discharge from the emergency department,” said Shah. “These findings could dramatically reduce unnecessary hospital admissions and provide substantial cost savings for healthcare providers.”
Now, what about those having more than 5 ng/L of troponin? They were made to stay in the hospital for constant monitoring and tests. The findings indicate that they are 3 times more likely to have a heart attack than the other patients.
On the other hand, other medical experts are wary of the risks entailed in discharging patients early following a simple blood test. Commenting on the study, a team of physicians from emergency departments in Australia and New Zealand write:
“The ultimate validation for the safety and efficacy of discharging patients … will be the report of clinical outcomes after this threshold is implemented in routine clinical practice.”
“[W]hat further assessment, if any, is needed for those patients identified as low risk and suitable for early discharge? Trials are needed to assess the safety and effectiveness of clinical pathways that involve no further testing for such patients.” | <urn:uuid:b6ad4893-76ef-4db6-b53a-bd08fde9c12e> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://www.amazingscience.news/2015/10/simple-blood-test-determines-risk-of-having-a-heart-attack/ | 2021-03-05T10:40:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178370752.61/warc/CC-MAIN-20210305091526-20210305121526-00517.warc.gz | en | 0.961045 | 524 | [

Athens - National Opera (Greece 2009)
An architectural jewel with eco-friendly water solutions
The Greek National Opera has a new home which will become an exciting destination for music lovers and architecture connoisseurs alike. The new 28,000 m² (301,000 sq. ft.) auditorium is an architectural jewel, designed to enhance the opera experience for customers and artists alike.
Its world-class acoustics, mechanical capabilities, flexible staging, and innate beauty will position it for immediate entry into the world opera circuit, ready to play host to the most technically demanding operas, international multimedia art productions, and formidable solo vocalists.
The project is fully funded by the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (www.SNF.org) and will incorporate the National Library of Greece and the Stavros Niarchos Park, all designed by renowned Italian architect Renzo Piano.
On the completion of the project, the Foundation will hand the SNFCC to the Greek State, which will undertake its full control and operation. As well as being an architectural challenge the project has had the clear objective of being eco- friendly and incorporating many major technical innovations.
Water management solutions that pay
Aquality has added its professional water management expertise to the project and provided two Greywater Recycling systems, which allow the building to be super water efficient in the long run.
In Greece water is precious and every effort has to be made to retain and use all the water available. Water is collected from showers and hand wash basins and then re-cycled for toilet flushing and any other non-potable water applications like irrigation and cleaning.
Two Aqua Recycling Control systems have been installed to facilitate total treatment of non-potable water of up to 4,000 litres per day. This will undoubtedly result in significant savings over the coming years. | <urn:uuid:0d46bb1b-663b-4421-a67b-0a900d6da0a7> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://www.aqua-lity.co.uk/6331/athens-library-theatre-complex-greece-2009 | 2021-03-05T09:18:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178370752.61/warc/CC-MAIN-20210305091526-20210305121526-00517.warc.gz | en | 0.939138 | 383 | [

An election made under this section shall apply to all prepaid dues income received in connection with the trade or business with respect to which the taxpayer has made the election; except that the taxpayer may, to the extent permitted under regulations prescribed by the Secretary, include in gross income for the taxable year of receipt the entire amount of any prepaid dues income if the liability from which it arose is to end within 12 months after the date of receipt. Except as provided in subsection (d), and election made under this section shall not apply to any prepaid dues income received before the first taxable year for which the election is made.
A taxpayer may, with the consent of the Secretary, make an election under this section at any time.
A taxpayer may, without the consent of the Secretary, make an election under this section for its first taxable year in which it receives prepaid dues income in the trade or business. Such election shall be made not later than the time prescribed by law for filing the return for the taxable year (including extensions thereof) with respect to which such election is made.
An election under this section shall be effective for the taxable year with respect to which it is first made and for all subsequent taxable years, unless the taxpayer secures the consent of the Secretary to the revocation of such election. For purposes of this title, the computation of taxable income under an election made under this section shall be treated as a method of accounting.
If a taxpayer makes an election under this section with respect to prepaid dues income, such taxpayer shall include in gross income, for each taxable year to which such election applies, not only that portion of prepaid dues income received in such year otherwise includible in gross income for such year under this section, but shall also include in gross income for such year an additional amount equal to the amount of prepaid dues income received in the 3 taxable years preceding the first taxable year to which such election applies which would have been included in gross income in the taxable year had the election been effective 3 years earlier.
A taxpayer who makes an election with respect to prepaid dues income, and who includes in gross income for any taxable year to which the election applies an additional amount computed under paragraph (1), shall be permitted to deduct, for such taxable year and for each of the 4 succeeding taxable years, an amount equal to one-fifth of such additional amount, but only to the extent that such additional amount was also included in the taxpayer’s gross income during any of the 3 taxable years preceding the first taxable year to which such election applies.
The term “prepaid dues income” means any amount (includible in gross income) which is received by a membership organization in connection with, and is directly attributable to, a liability to render services or make available membership privileges over a period of time which extends beyond the close of the taxable year in which such amount is received.
The term “liability” means a liability to render services or make available membership privileges over a period of time which does not exceed 36 months, which liability shall be deemed to exist ratably over the period of time that such services are required to be rendered, or that such membership privileges are required to be made available.
Prepaid dues income shall be treated as received during the taxable year for which it is includible in gross income under section 451 (without regard to this section). | <urn:uuid:b5820108-7214-46b8-938b-29b79c28c3fc> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/26/456 | 2021-03-05T10:43:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178370752.61/warc/CC-MAIN-20210305091526-20210305121526-00517.warc.gz | en | 0.974992 | 806 | [

In my capacity as the first CEO of the London Medical Network, I have enjoyed the privilege of working with many of the city’s health care leaders to develop the business plan and initiate the operating network charged with delivering London’s innovation and job creation agenda in the medical and health care fields.
As such, it should be of no surprise that I am a huge believer in this strategy and huge advocate for our continued investment in it. Specifically, I believe that:
- London can become known in name and practice as the nation’s leading health care community.
- London can develop an health care apparatus that matches the recognition and economic output of similar health innovation centres as the Mayo Clinic and Cleveland Clinic.
And while the road to building such a noteworthy enterprise is likely to be painstaking long, I hold this perspective for several reasons.
- London’s health care sector is already formidable, contributing approximately $2 billion to the economy annually and employing an estimated 21,000 workers city-wide. As a result, health care is second only to manufacturing in economic contribution and employment in the city.
- While London is Canada’s 10th largest city by population, it is home to the 5th largest medical cluster in the country, two of most reputable research Institutes (Robarts and Lawson) in the field, and one of the largest concentration of medical researchers per capita anywhere in North America.
- London has already established its credentials as an innovative medical community. Since the formal inception of the region’s first medical school in 1882, London’s researchers and clinicians have amassed an incredible track record of medical innovation, one that rivals any medical community anywhere in the world.
Fortunately, the sector-specific strategies to capitalize on this opportunity are now in place. They include:
- Identifying and prioritizing those select areas of medical research in London that best lend themselves to impactful innovation and then assembling innovation teams comprised of research and industry players to monetize the opportunity and create jobs.
- Recruiting and retaining world-class medical research leaders capable of building London’s medical innovation capabilities.
- Collaborating with London’s impressive roster of health care assets to help introduce the innovations to the marketplace and create better patient outcomes.
- Loudly amplifying London’s long-standing and continued success in this sector – effectively making London synonymous with great health care in Canada.
It is worth noting that the London Medical Network (LMN) has already begun to make strides in this area. They include the recent establishment of a partnership between Western, the LMN and UK-based Renishaw PLC to establish a state-of-art 3-D additive manufacturing centre for medical devices. Western and Lawson have also done an impressive job recently recruiting and retaining four world-class medical researchers to our community.
However, it is also important to recognize that the economic and social impacts of this initiative will be neither immediate or evident for some time. The transition of medical innovation from the lab setting to the marketplace is incredibly long, sometimes arduous and often less visible to general populace. Still, the long-term benefits of creating a strong health-based economy that builds wealth and social good both locally and abroad, will prove worthy of London’s legacy and rewarding to its citizens.
It took the Mayo Clinic nearly 100 years to develop its $9 billion, 60,000-employee medical economy. In my opinion, London, with a little patience and lot of perseverance, has the assets and ability to reach a similar level of economic and social value in much less time. | <urn:uuid:06afc087-843e-4cf2-9535-9bb29a9f0473> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://thepaolattoreport.com/london-inc-part-6-health-care/ | 2021-03-08T18:12:23Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178385389.83/warc/CC-MAIN-20210308174330-20210308204330-00517.warc.gz | en | 0.957333 | 740 | [

A certain amount seems to be agreed about the history of Islamic fundamentalist ideology: Saudi Arabia sought to fend off criticism of the monarchy by pouring money into the proselytizing of Wahhabism throughout the Muslim world; this intellectual milieu opened the road from one form of commitment to other, more extreme, forms of commitment; both al Qaeda and Hamas benefitted from this in the past in the sense that there existed a broad tolerance for Islamist terrorism. However, now ISIS has emerged as the champion of conservative Sunni Islam. The “end-of-days” thread in the thought of ISIS has alienated many (perhaps most) Muslims. That still leaves people (the policy-makers, the politicians who front for them, and the scholars and intelligence officers who advise them) with dilemmas.
For one thing, ISIS might best be thought of as a coalition, rather than a coherent movement. On the one hand, it is essentially an Iraqi Sunni movement. Yes, it flourished in a Syria torn apart by civil war, but it has at its core Iraqi Sunnis who had participated in the insurgency that followed the American invasion of Iraq in 2003, then fled to Syria. On the other hand, it is an international “brand” that inspires malcontents elsewhere to act against both “Unbelievers” and “Misbelievers.” Will any one strategy succeed against ISIS or is it just an umbrella term for several separate wars?
For another thing, will mowing the lawn on a regular basis (i.e. drone strikes on Islamist leaders) accomplish anything? The answer probably depends on whether one is attacking a tightly circumscribed transnational terrorist network (like Al Qaeda) or a broadly-based insurgency (like the Taliban). Killing the leadership of a network will disorganize it and disrupt its communications. Killing the leader of a local insurgency may just lead to the movement coughing up another leader, one possibly more radical than his predecessor. The U.S. has faced this dilemma since 9/11. Starkly: hunt Osama bin Laden or invade Iraq?
For a third thing, “is the main threat the radicalization of Islam or the Islamization of radicalism?” That is, do some elements (individuals or groups) of Muslim communities move toward a conflict-oriented fundamentalism? If that’s the case, then the solution may be more effective policing to discern people headed down a pathway to violence. Alternatively, do some madmen just seek a “cause” with which to identify, and ISIS is the flavor of the month? If that is the case, then perhaps the defeat of ISIS will reduce the appeal of “jihad.” (NB: Probably both. So, where are the physical and psychological spaces where the two groups meet?)
The Wall Street Journal’s Yaroslav Trofimov reports that about a quarter of the ISIS recruits in Europe are actually converts from some other faith or from no faith, while many of the Muslims come from families that were non-observant. One way to read this is that secularization has left some people intellectually and emotionally adrift. Another way to read it is that troubled people search for some rock to cling to so they aren’t washed away in their inner storms. The two are not incompatible. Moreover, Trofimov is understandably pre-occupied by the danger of attacks in the West. What about the many more dissidents in the countries of the Muslim world?
Can ISIS be defeated? In one sense, yes, obviously. Bomb them back to the Stone Age. But can it “die”? Are Bozo Haram and Bangladeshi terrorists and “lone wolves” in California and Florida actually in touch with the Islamic State in any meaningful way? Or are they just inspired by the example? If ISIS is defeated in Syraqia, will it be discredited or will people continue to evoke it as an ideal? There are no easy answers to any of these questions.
Yaroslav Trofimov, “U.S. Killings of Militant Leaders Deliver Mixed Results,” WSJ, 27 May 2016.
Yaroslav Trofimov, “For Some New Militants, Islam is a Flag of Convenience,” WSJ, 17 June 2016. | <urn:uuid:d2f1d3cf-4e9d-414a-8da7-512e04f449d5> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://waroftheworldblog.com/tag/islamic-fundamentalism/ | 2021-02-25T17:07:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178351374.10/warc/CC-MAIN-20210225153633-20210225183633-00557.warc.gz | en | 0.953377 | 888 | [

What is the transforming power of love? Does it evolve us into our finest natures or does it unearth the loathsome qualities that are buried in the deepest soils of our flawed souls? Thomas Middleton and William Rowley’s brilliant The Changeling propels these questions into our minds and hearts courtesy of the finely wrought, emotionally fierce production of this seminal Jacobean revenge tragedy directed by Jesse Berger currently at The Red Bull Theater.
The production’s spectacle takes its artistic design (lighting, sets, costumes, effects), cues from the darkest themes of Middleton’s and Rowley’s play about beauteous, lyrical human elements gradually overthrown by malformed and wicked lusts that transcend judgment, spiritual temperance, and wholesomeness. The director’s choice of stark sets/backdrops painted a lustrous black, an absence of soft curtains or materials, the black or grey-toned costumes of the main characters contrasted with the white garb, masks and headgear of the fools and madmen, the transparent/partial-mirror reflecting partition signifying Alibius’ (the doctor), basement asylum in his house, each expertly symbolize and heighten the contrasts between goodness and evil, rationality, and madness in the production’s motifs.
There is no character in this darkly ironic and phenomenal tragedy that escapes into the light of moderation, integrity, and decency, except perhaps one. Most are fools and madmen/women when confronted with their will to power to achieve their wanton desires. In the main trope of the play, the will to exercise love without the mitigating force of empathy boils over into wanton licentiousness and murderous compulsions. These capsize the protagonists into a bloody and vengeful madness which comes to haunt and destroy them by the conclusion. On the other hand, this obsessive irrationality is contrasted with those the culture deems to be fools and madmen. Indeed, as this production subtly and cleverly emphasizes, there is little difference between those who become irrational and foment their lusts willfully harming all around them and those who refuse to be socialized into humankind’s hypocritical, cultural mores (which produce foolishness and madness), except this. The fools and madmen, perhaps are not so mad and foolish after all.
The director introduces the characters in the play’s opening by way of a briefly mannered, pantomimed scene that takes place in church where we are reminded of the mores and tenets of the culture that is leadened with hypocrisy and strict, rigid paternalism. It is in the church where nobleman Alsemero (a modulated and aptly tuned portrayal by Christian Coulson), spies Beatrice-Joanna (Sara Topham is wonderful in achieving the heights and depths of emotional pathos), and they fall in love “at first sight.” However, Beatrice-Joanna is promised in an arranged marriage to another nobleman. Though Alsemero is willing to “say goodbye” to this lovely creature upon hearing from her father (a fine Sam Tsoutsouvas), of her soon-to-be betrothal, he allows himself to become entangled in the intrigue of her arresting ways and her father’s hospitality to visit the castle and remain for a few days.
It is here that we note Alsemero’s lack of restraint and sound judgment. Despite the dialogue between them about wisdom, the opposite pertains. Alsemero allows himself to be encouraged by Beatrice-Joanna’s flirtations. He pursues her with amorous advances which she returns. The fruits of this forbidden love spur both on to overthrow Beatrice-Joanna’s father’s will and change the course of their destiny. They attempt to conceive of a viable plan that, with impunity, will eliminate her betrothed Piracquo (Paul Niebanck). Already, the obsession of their lusts has brought them to the edge of foolishness. It is through Beatrice-Joanna’s cunning wickedness that she alone plunges into the irrationality of a terrifying plan to effect her marriage to the gorgeous Alsemero and eliminate any possibility of a marriage to the disliked Piracquo.
This is no Romeo and Juliet, a whimsical teenage love, the avoidance of Juliet’s arranged marriage to Paris supported by Friar Lawrence and the Nurse, which ends up in two fateful suicides. This is a full blown revenge play with blood and horror, and the director and actors make the most of the subterranean undercurrents, passions and twisted torments of the characters, who justify their nefarious behaviors with benign “rational” excuses: i.e. all actions are right in the name of love.
The seemingly tender development of Beatrice-Joanna’s “love” of Alsemero is the actress’ and director’s spinning collaboration born of an acute understanding of Middleton’s and Rowley’s profound work. Beatrice-Joanna morphs from a sweet woman to the determined obsessive, who crafts her wiles to empower her destiny. Sara Topham nuances Beatrice-Joanna’s character as a fascinating reverse of her counterpart, the facially disfigured De Flores (Manoel Felciano is an absolutely amazing De Flores-subtle, lecherous, sensual, hideous, engrossing), who is as obsessed with her, as she is with Alsemero. Does he adore her enough to come up with a plan for her to stop the arranged marriage? And if he does, how will she then be able to get rid of him afterward? What payment would be enough to send him out of her father’s servitude?
Beatrice-Joanna finds De Flores’ fawning adoration of her loathsome, until she perceives she can employ his obsession to good use. The director, guiding Topham’s and Felciano’s performances, encourages us to appreciate the playwrights’ ironies; Beatrice-Joanna and De Flores are chiaroscuro images of one another. We are taken in with Beatrice-Joanna’s beauty and apparent good-will to stand up for herself and not be bullied into a loveless marriage. We are repelled by De Flores’ outer disfigurement and his inferior sycophancy and unmasculine kowtowing to her for “love.”
Yet, beyond the externals of physical attributes and cultural position, in their natures, wills and desires they are the same. Thus, they bond in blood; they understand how to plot and plan. They are clever and duplicitous and they dupe themselves and each other into fulfilling their darkest desires, thereby fitting their own and each other’s destruction. This is less an act of fate than actions of faithlessness. And most every character in the castle environs changes from light to dark, from happiness to sorrow and misery, from heavenly individuals to creatures of hell.
Parallel with the play’s dark ironies is the comic sub-plot of two gentlemen, Antonio (an excellent portrayal by Bill Army), and Franciscus (Philippe Bowgen with equivalent abandon), who behave as a food and madman becoming patients of doctor, Alibius (Christopher McCann), to pursue his well guarded wife Isabella (Michelle Beck measures her portrayal with skill). Antonio and Franciscus are obsessed with lust/love for Isabella and are willing to take great risks to fulfill their desires. But they are saved from themselves because Isabella, perhaps the only temperate and rational secondary protagonist in the play, rejects their advances after using her wiles to uncover their dissembling. Though this segment is not as compelling as that between Alsemero, Beatrice-Joanna and De Flores, nevertheless, Berger and the ensemble relay the comedic elements effectively to illustrate the themes of temperance and integrity as the playwrights fuse the development of both segments by the play’s conclusion.
The complications and grand twists which include ghostly hauntings and guilt-ridden visions comprise the two acts which clip along at a pace that thrills and engages. This is no small thanks to the exceptional teamwork by the acting ensemble and Berger’s conceptualizations and natural, seamless staging of the scenes of comedy interchanged with the intensifying events in the castle to the final realistic scenes of violence and gore. The Changeling should not be missed. You can see it at the Red Bull Theater until January 24th. | <urn:uuid:7c86ca14-5990-4108-951d-67cd3aa5ee0f> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://blogcritics.org/theater-review-nyc-off-broadway-the-changeling/ | 2021-02-27T07:22:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178358203.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20210227054852-20210227084852-00237.warc.gz | en | 0.946662 | 1,801 | [

The blast sent up a huge column of black smoke, but emergency services said several air quality measuring stations in the area showed normal readings, easing concerns about toxic pollution. However, police evacuated buildings within a 500 meter (1,640 foot) radius of the scene. Emergency services ordered the evacuation of five schools in the area. Firefighters said three of the injured were in serious condition, two for burns and one with a fractured pelvis. One of the workers, a 37-year-old man, suffered burns on 30 percent of his body, while one of his colleagues, 42, was burned on 18 percent of his body. It took firefighters eight hours to bring the blaze under control.The authorities are investigating the cause of the blasts. This is the second time in less than four years that a fire has erupted at the plant. | <urn:uuid:873ead51-3399-48b5-9dc2-16e3aa0fe1d4> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://www.roundnews.com/world/europe/6065-explosion-and-dozens-injured-at-a-recycling-waste-plant-at-30-km-of-madrid.html | 2021-02-27T06:16:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178358203.43/warc/CC-MAIN-20210227054852-20210227084852-00237.warc.gz | en | 0.983737 | 168 | [

The waves pounding on the beach, the refreshing sea breezes, the colossal hand-carved 12thcentury stone temple, the relaxed and happy ambience of the local folk, the bright red, yellow and blue cloth appliqué, and that bewitching pair of big smiling eyes looking out from every wall, every billboard, every poster, every calendar, every wedding invitation, every sticker, every button, every bead bag, every taxi and rickshaw, every windshield, every t-shirt, every shoulder bag – “This is Jagannatha Puri Dhama”, one of India’s most popular pilgrimage sites located in Orissa, 300 miles south of Kolkata and 60km from Bhubaneswar.
In Skanda-Purana (Utkala-khanda) it is mentioned that this most beautiful Sri Ksetra is spread over 10 yojanas (128km or 80 miles) and surrounded by sands. Utkala is another name of Orissa. Utkala is described in scriptures as the most holy place on this planet. Utkala is divided into four parts which represent the weapons of Lord Visnu. These four ksetras are known as Sankha-ksetra (Puri town), Padma-ksetra (Konark), Cakra-ksetra (Bhubaneswar) and Gada-ksetra (Jajapura, where the Viraja Devi temple is). Within this area of 10 yojanas, Puri is known as Sankha-ksetra because its shape resembles a conch shell. This Puri-ksetra covers an area of 5 krosa, 3 of which are immersed under the ocean, and 2 on land. This land is covered with golden sands and decorated with a blue mountain. The Lord Himself in His arca-vigraha form is residing here on the bank of the ocean atop the blue mountain. Sankha-ksetra spreads from east to west. Its head is towards west where Lokanatha Mahadeva resides.
Puri-dhama is known by different names: Purusottama-ksetra, Sri Ksetra, Nilacala-dhama, Jagannatha-dhama, Yamanika-tirtha, Martya Vaikuntha, Nilagiri, Sankha-ksetra, Dasa-avatara-ksetra and Nrsimha-ksetra. Glories of Sri Purusottama-ksetra Jagannatha Puri Dhama are mentioned in different Puranas:Skanda Purana, Brahma Purana, Vamadeva Samhita, Kapila Samhita, Padma Purana and Niladri Purana.
“SRI MANDIRA” – LORD JAGANNATHA TEMPLE
Eternal abode of Their Lordships Sri Sri Jagannatha, Baladeva and Subhadra
Jagannathah swami nayana-patha-gami bhavatu me
“O Lord of the universe, kindly be visible unto me.”
Jagannatha means “Lord of the Universe”. Jagannatha Swami is a unique Deity form of Lord Sri Krishna, who has especially appeared in Kali-yuga to deliver the most fallen souls. Merciful Lord Jagannatha accepts worship from one and all. Padma Purana states:
Samudrasyottare tire, aste sri-purusottame
Purnananda-mayam brahma, daru-vyaja-sarira-bhrt
“At Sri Purusottama [Jagannatha Puri], on the northern shore of the ocean, resides the Supreme Absolute Truth. Full of ecstatic bliss, He has assumed a transcendental body that appears wooden.”
Jagannatha Svami is called daru-brahman because He is the Absolute Truth in wood (daru), and because He destroys (daranat) the miseries of material existence. Daru Brahman means the Deity form of God, the Supreme Brahman, Parabrahman. It means the Supreme Personality of Godhead Sri Krishna who cuts away all sufferings and miserable material attachments, and then rewards one an eternal life of endless bliss in the spiritual world; He is Lord Jagannatha or Daru Brahman.
Being absolute, Lord Jagannatha is identical in person, form, picture, kirtana and all other circumstances. If one thinks that the form of Lord Jagannatha is an idol made of wood, he immediately brings ill fortune into his life. Lord Jagannatha is sac-cid-ananda-vigraha, just as the body of Krishna is sac-cid-ananda-vigraha. A pure devotee who knows the science of Krishna Consciousness makes no distinction between Lord Jagannatha and His body. Lord Jagannatha is identical with Sri Krishna (Krsnera ‘atma-svarupa). But in Jagannatha Puri, He appears as daru-brahma, a non-moving entity (sthavara-svarupa). Thus Lord Jagannatha and Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, although appearing as two, are one because They are both Krishna, who is one alone. The supreme desire to deliver the entire world meets in both Mahaprabhu and Jagannatha, and for that reason also They are one and the same. To deliver all the materially contaminated people of the world, that same Krishna has descended in the moving form (jangama rupa) of Gaura. (Caitanya Caritamrta Antya Lila 5.148-151)
Beauty of Jagannatha Svami
Lord Jagannatha has extraordinary form. Pilgrims in Puri often ask, “Why does the Deity of Jagannatha Deva have such an unusual form?” Answer is simple: God wants to appear like this, in this most unusual form, to establish religion in this most unusual age of Kali. Vamadeva Samhita and Skanda Purana state that Lord Sri Krishna appears in this covered wooden form out of His independent will and due to prayer of Brahma Ji. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu was very thirsty to see the Deity of Lord Jagannatha. Gauranga’s eyes became like two bumblebees drinking the honey from the lotus-like eyes of Lord Jagannatha who is Krishna Himself.
- The eyes of Lord Jagannatha conquer the beauty of blossoming lotus flowers and His neck defeats the luster of a mirror made of blue sapphires.
- The chin of Jagannatha Svami, tinged with a buff color conquers the beauty of bandhuli flower. This increases the beauty of Jagannatha’s mild smiling, which is like lustrous waves of nectar.
- Luster of Jagannatha Deva’s beautiful face increases at every moment, and the eyes of 100’s and 1000’s of devotees drink its honey like bumblebees.
- Feeling such great pleasure upon seeing the face of Lord Jagannatha, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu forgot everything. (Caitanya Caritamrta Madhya Lila 12.210-19)
Main temple of Jagannatha Svami soars 214 feet high. Temple complex comprises an area of 10.7 acres and is enclosed by 2 rectangular walls. Outer enclosure is called Meghananda Prachira (665 x 640 feet). Walls are 6 meters high. Inner wall is called Kurmabedha (420 x 315 ft). This ancient temple combines two styles: South Indian (Dravidian) and North Indian (Nagara). King Anangabhima Deva completed the temple in 1200 AD. Within the boundary walls of the Jagannatha temple there are 30 different temples. Outer wall has opening in four directions. East and main gate, Lion Gate (Simha-dvara) has two crouching stone lions. South gate, Horse Gtae (Aswa-dvara) has a pair of galloping horses carrying Jagannatha and Baladeva on backs with all Their martial glory. West gate, Tiger Gate (Vyaghra-dvara) has two stone tigers, and north gate, Elephant Gate (Hasti-dvara) has a huge stone elephant.
Cakra & Flags
The cakra (Sudarsana disc) above Lord Jaganantha’s temple is called “Nila-Cakra” (blue wheel). Nila-cakra is made of an alloy of 8 different metals. It is 11 feet 8inch high and has circumference of 36 feet. On every Ekadasi a lamp is lit near the wheel. Daily around 6:30pm, the Garuda Sevaka (a pujari flag bearer) fearlessly climbs up 214 feet to the Nila-cakra and fastens a number of flags to the mast fixed to Nila-cakra. Flags, which are bright red, white or bright yellow in color, are embroidered with a crescent moon and a sun in the middle, signifying that Lord Jagannatha is our ever-watchful, loving guardian both in the day and night. It alsom means that Lord Jagannatha rules the universe wherever the sun and moon shine. Nila-cakra sevaits, begin this hereditary service from age of 8, get the ability to perform this very difficult service by the mercy of Garuda, whose name they chant while scaling the shikara.
In front of main gate is a pillar 11m high called Aruna Stambha. On top of this single-stone pillar is Aruna, the charioteer of the sun god. In passage room of main gate is a Deity of Lord Jagannatha called Patita Pavana (saviour of the most fallen). It is visible from the road. One can stand behind Aruna Stambha and respectively gaze at the Nila-Cakra, flags billowing atop Jagannatha’s temple and Patita Pavana Jagannatha in front, and then offer humble obeisances. Seeing Nila-Cakra, flags and Patita Pavana Jagannatha is equal to direct darshana of Lord Jagannatha in the temple. (Caitanya Caritamrta Madhya Lila 11.195 purport)
Transcendental ambience within sacred space of the Supreme Lord Jagannatha: While approaching innermost sanctuary (Garbha Grha) of the Jagannatha Temple through the various halls and past many pillars and carved panels, a devotee is subtly influenced by sacredness of the architecture. He finds himself enclosed with the Supreme Lord in a dim, soothing atmosphere. His eyes find rest after fierce light of the day outside. Not only is lighting dim, but the air is filled with scent of flowers, burning oil lamps and incense coming from the sanctuary. Gradually his mood calms and his spiritual feelings are awakened as he approaches the Deities.
Garuda-stambha (pillar) stands along east back wall of the Jagamohana. It supports murti of Lord Narayana’s eagle carrier Garuda, who is admiring the Deity of Jagannatha Deva from this vintage point. Devotees regularly hug this pillar and offer prayers while seeing Lord Jagannatha. By doing this they feel blessings of Lord’s direct embrace. Gauranga Mahaprabhu used to stand here and offer obeisances and prayers while reeling in ecstatic bliss gazing upon saksatVrajendranandana Jagannatha Svami. Mahaprabhu’s divine finger prints are imprinted on the wall behind the Garuda-stambha. Srila Krishna dasa Kavriraj Goswami describes:
“Staying near the Garuda-stambha, Gaura-raya gazed upon the Lord Jagannatha. What can be said about the strength of that love? On the ground beneath the column of the Garuda-stambha was a deep ditch, which filled with the water of Gauranga’s tears.” (Caitanya Caritamrta Madhya Lila 2.54)
Kitchen & Maha-Prasadam of Lord Jagannatha
- Temple has largest kitchen in the world and feeds thousands of devotees every day. Kitchen can prepare prasadam for 100,000 people one day, and 250,000 isnormal on a festival day.
- Kitchen has astounding 752 wood-burning stoves, each 3’x4’ spread over one acre in the south east corner, far left inside the Lion Gate.
- 600 cooks and 1,000 devotees work daily in the kitchen.
- Chillies, onion, garlic, carrots and widely available “new-world” ingredients such as cabbage, potatoes, tomatoes, cauliflowers are not used in any preparation. Wide variety of locally available organic produce such as beans, tubers, squashes, melons, leafy greens, local spices like mace, cumin, fennel, nutmeg, cardamom, cinnamon, coriander, mustard seed and black cumin is used.
- Without electricity or machines, skilled chefs work under oil lamps over open wood fires. Every day they prepare more than a 100 different dishes and offer them to the Deities. Given only 1 day notice the chefs can prepare a full meal for up to 10,000 guests at a sitting.
- Every day, a fire sacrifice is performed in the temple kitchen. Afterwards, the cooks take embers from that sacrificial fire to ignite their individual stoves.
- All bhoga is cooked in earthen pots. Nine clay pots full of bhoga are cooked simultaneously upon one oven with 9 burners. Every pot of bhoga is placed before Lord Jagannatha, Baladeva and Subhadra, unlike most temples in India where only small portions of the entire meal are offered before the Deities.
- Everyday Lord Jagannatha is offered 56 items (chappana bhoga) for His pleasure: 9 rice preparations, 14 subjis & curries, 9 milk preparations, 11 sweets, 13 cakes, pancakes and patties.
- Jagannatha Temple kitchens are exemplary in many ways. Three things are of special significance: Preservation of ancient cooking standards, Training program for temple priests and Highly efficient system for distribution of temple prasadam.
Near the northeast corner, after climbing 22 stairs from Lion Gate on right side is where one can get Jagannatha maha-prasadam and experience the bliss (ananda) of tasting Lord’s unprecedented mercy remnants. There are 36 traditional communities (chatisha niyaga) who render a specific hereditary service to the Deities. Temple has as many as 6000 priests.
Deity Dresses (vesa) of Lord Jagannatha
Lord Jagannatha is regularly dressed in silk or cotton outfits enhanced with lots of pretty flowers, tulasi garlands and manjaris. Only sweet smelling flowers of white, yellow, gold, orange and pink colors are offered to Jagannatha Svami. Jasmines, marigolds and pink and white lotuses are Jagannatha’s favourites. Some devotees adore Jagannatha Svami as Sri Krishna, the majestic, opulent Lord of Dvaraka. Others see Him as Vrajendranandana, the simple, carefree cowherd of Vraja. This combination of simplicity and grandeur is prominently visible in the varieties of Lord Jagannatha’s outfits.
Nava-kalevara-yatra (or ritual of transformation)
Since the Deities are made from wood, each 12 years Nava-kalevara-yatra (or ritual of transformation) is held. After elaborate preliminary preparations, the right trees are found, Deities carved, transformation made and old Deities buried in the ground. Though as much as half million people attend the festival, most of the procedures are conducted in secret and no other than few appointed priests and servants can be present. First of all the special trees with the symbolic marks of chakra, conch shell, mace and lotus have to be found. The search party consists of exact numbers of man belonging to specific families and casts. After several stops they will reach village Kakatpur 80 km from Puri. The oldest member of Dayitapati family has to sleep in the temple of Goddess Vimala or Mangala, meaning “Auspicious One”. He must have a dream during this stay in which goddess tells him the exact location where the trees can be found. The tree for each of the four Deities will be in a different place (the fourth Deity is Sudarsan). When the search party locates the places, they may find many trees, but the sacred symbols will be found on only one of them. The Siva’s temple and pond has to be nearby. Very rare types of trees must be growing beside: The Varuna tree, which can protect you from snakes. It is said that this tree has the power to destroy all anger and pride. People today often carry a piece of Varuna bark with them if they must meet a bothersome person. The Sahada tree, which gives the power to forget oneself. The Vilua tree, which has the power to cure any disease, even heart disease, cancer and leprosy The cure is obtained by chewing its leaves. All three trees are very rare, whereas the Neem tree is very common. When the trees are found, they must construct a small hut nearby in which they will now reside. A great fire sacrifice is performed there to invite all demigods to give their blessings and cutting of the tree can start. First only the golden axe can touch the tree, then silver and after that iron axe can finish the work. 108 names of the Lord are chanted continuously. Neem wood will not decay for more than thirty years and it is one of the longest-lasting types of wood in India. Since “Neem” is called “daru” Jagannatha Deity is also called “daru-brahman”. Only members of the Dayitapati family have the right of carrying the huge log back to Puri and the descendant of the original carver can carve the Deity. Only few precisely designated servants can participate in the rites of transformation. Old Deities are placed in front of the new ones and three oldest members of Dayitapati family transfer “Daru-brahman” to the new Deities Not even the head priest can be there during this time. Nava-kalevara-yatra is actually this transformation ceremony during which all present have very intense experiences as they blindfolded transfer “life force” to the new Deities. Old Deities are buried in a place known as Koili Vaikuntha. Koili means “burial ground” and Vaikuntha means “Heaven”.
Non-Hindus tread the Humble Path
Although many western born convert to Hindu thought and Gaudiya Vaishnavism in particular visit Puri, they cannot enter temple to see Lord Jagannatha because temple law forbids entrance of “non-Hindus”. Srila Prabhupada speaks sympathetically, “We should not feel sorry about this, as long as we engage in chanting Hare Krishna maha-mantra. Krishna Himself associates with with devotees who are chanting His holy name, and there is no need to be unhappy over not being able to enter a certain temple. Such dogmatic prohibitions were not approved by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Those who were thought unfit to enter Jagannatha temple, Srila Rupa Goswami, Sanatana Goswami, Haridasa Thakura, were daily visited by Caitanya Mahaprabhu, and this indicates that Mahaprabhu did not approve of the prohibitions. To avoid unnecessary turmoil, however, these great personalities did not enter the Jagannatha temple.” (Caitanya Caritamrta Madhya Lila 1.63)
Out of His infinite compassion, Jagannatha shows Himself in 3 wonderful forms:
- Patita Pavana Jagannatha, Nila-Cakra & flags:Everyday Lord Jagannatha sits just inside Lion Gate as Patita Pavana Jagannatha smiling and glancing lovingly toward anyone who peeks in from the street, and also gaze at Nila-Cakra & flagsatop Jagannatha’s Temple. Seeing Nila-Cakra, flags and Patita Pavana Jagannatha is equal to direct darshana of Lord Jagannatha in the temple. (Caitanya Caritamrta Madhya Lila 11.195 purport)
- Jagannatha maha-prasadam: He arrears in His most relishable form as Jagannatha maha-prasadam for everyone to see by tasting. In the form of maha-prasadam He reciprocates very intimately with all His worshipers.
- Snana-yatra, Rathayatra & Ulta-Rathayatra: Their Lordships Sri Sri Jagannatha, Baladeva, Subhadra come out in full public three times a year – Snana-yatra, Rathayatra & Ulta-Rathayatra. At these times everyone can directly see their benevolent Lord, worship and pray to Him, pull Jagannatha’s chariot and relish His beautiful darshana to their heart’s content.
In addition, Sri Murari Gupta, an eternal associate of Lord Gauranga as confirmed in Sri Krishna Caitanya Carita Maha-kavya 3.4.39: “Whatever benefit is achieved by having direct darshan of Lord Jagannatha, the master of Purusottama Ksetra, one can obtain simply by regularly reciting the pastimes of Gaurahari.”

Corozal Town is the largest city in the district called Corozal, but with fewer than 10,000 residents it’s still not much of a city. Corozal Town lies only 9 miles from the Mexican border so part of its appeal is the clear contrast between Belize and its northern neighbor. The city of Chetumal, Mexico is only an hour away by bus, overlooking the same bay as Corozal Town.
Corozal Town has attracted a large expat population, but still remains a slow moving and sleepy town. The people are very friendly and there is something of a hippie vibe around. The setting overlooking the crystal clear bay is tranquil and makes this an ideal place to relax and just soak in the Caribbean atmosphere. English is the official language of Belize, but being so close to Mexico you’ll be hearing quite a bit of Spanish as well.
Hotels/hostels – Accommodations in Corozal Town are fairly cheap so there are no traditional hostels with dorm beds in town. Hotels run from budget and basic up to a few that are like mini resorts. With all the traffic going to and coming from Mexico, there are many Corozal hotels and guesthouses to choose from, and prices are quite competitive.
What to do – Relaxing is the order of the day in Corozal Town. This is a gorgeous section along the Caribbean and the town’s atmosphere feels much more like a lazy island than it does like a part of Central America. The one-hour bus ride to Chetumal, Mexico gives a fascinating contrast if you hadn’t already planned on going to Mexico. The cities are just across the bay from each other and yet could not feel more different.
Unlike the other island and beach cities to the south, this town does not have a large water sports infrastructure. There are operators that run boat tours to nearby islands, but it’s not a big diving or snorkeling spot.
There are the Mayan ruins of Santa Rita to visit right in town. Corozal Town was built on the site of a previous Mayan city, but a small cluster of ruins is all that’s left for visitors. There is also a butterfly breeding center at the nearby Shipstern Nature preserve.
Getting there – There is no commercial airport near Corozal Town, but it’s only about a 2-hour bus ride from Belize City, and the buses are frequent. There are also buses to and from other cities in Belize, as well as the regular and popular bus route that shuttles people back and forth to Mexico just to the north. | <urn:uuid:21890de4-98dc-4e9c-875f-08873a63f350> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://www.belizelogue.com/corozal/ | 2021-03-03T23:11:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178367949.58/warc/CC-MAIN-20210303230849-20210304020849-00557.warc.gz | en | 0.969752 | 552 | [

The tips and techniques explained may be outdated.
Follow this step by step Illustrator tutorial to create a cool ribbon style logo graphic with gradients and effects in Adobe Illustrator. We’ll create the graphic as a vector design to allow scalability as a logo and add flat and mono versions to keep the logo versatile.
Usually a logo project would involve lots of research in order to develop a brand that reflects the company, but for this tutorial we’ll focus just on the practical task of building a cool looking graphic in Illustrator. The design we’ll be creating features a continuous ribbon style shape wrapping to form a spiral.
Open up Adobe Illustrator and draw a long thin rectangle on the artboard. Remember, the initial dimensions that you create your logo doesn’t matter seeing as we’re working in vector. Unlike Photoshop the design can be scaled up and down without loss of quality.
Press CMD+C to Copy then Paste in Front (CMD+F) a duplicate of the rectangle then select the top two points of the overlapping rectangle with the Direct Selection tool. Hold Shift and move these points right to shear the shape.
Select both rectangles and hit copy, then paste in front a duplicate. Move them into position horizontally to continue the ribbon then right click and select Arrange > Send to Back to properly follow the pattern.
Zoom right in to the document and press CMD+Y to toggle on outline mode. Select the two new rectangles and carefully line them up where they join with the originals.
Repeat the process to extend the ribbon, then add one final diagonal rectangle to finish the left edge.
Make a copy of a single diagonal rectangle and go to Object > Transform > Reflect and select the Vertical axis to flip the shape for the opposite side.
Position the flipped rectangle on the right edge to finish off the basic logo artwork.
Lay out a colour scheme for your branding or download a cool palette from sites such as ColourLovers.com and begin replacing the default fill/stroke with vibrant colours.
We’ll create a flat colour version of the logo later so let’s continue with the eye candy and make the logo stand out with some cool gradient effects. Make a copy of the logo then replace each segment with a gradient fill. Select the original colour as the centre handle, then choose a darker tone for the first handle and colour pick the next colour for the last handle.
Blending each colour with the next helps enhance the flow of colour across the logo, while the dark to light tones on each rectangle help give the design a slight three dimensional appearance.
On the last piece choose the lightest colour from the palette but add a shadow effect by blending the gradient to a darker tone.
Click & drag with the Gradient tool to adjust the angle of the gradients to flow with the orientation of each rectangle to best see the blend of colour.
Select each of the vertical rectangles and give them the same gradient fill as the nearest rectangle using the eyedropper tool. To maintain the illusion of a spiral these colours need making darker to represent light and shade. Select each handle from the gradient and add more black to each colour to darken all the tones.
The logo design looks pretty cool with the gradient effects helping the design stand out and jump off the screen.
Draw a circle somewhere on the artboard and give it a black to transparent radial gradient fill. Squash the shape by dragging the top handle downwards to create a little shadow graphic.
Reduce the opacity of the shadow to around 15% then position it under one of the rectangles’ bottom edges.
Hold ALT and Shift while dragging the shape to create a duplicate and position shadow graphics along the whole bottom edge.
The shadow effects help ground the logo and allows it to sit within its surrounding space. This is the primary version of the logo complete, but let’s quickly make flat and mono variations to keep the logo versatile.
A flat logo is useful for small scales where the gradients and effects wouldn’t reproduce well. Make a copy of the logo and remove all the gradients and shadows, leaving solid colour fills.
A mono version is useful for when the logo is being placed on unusual backgrounds where the primary logo would be lost. Replace all the colours with a temporary grey.
The logo loses all of its definition without a little modification. Select the diagonal segments and go to Object > Path > Offset Path. Add a small amount of offset of around 0.3mm.
Select all the new offset shapes individually and create a Compound Path.
Deselect everything then select just the upright rectangles and the last diagonal segment and create a new Compound Path.
Shift-Select both compound paths then hit the Subtract option from the Pathfinder palette to punch out the offset shapes from the original rectangles to leave a stroke effect. The mono version is now recognisable and can be used in any colour.
This leaves the cool ribbon style logo design complete and ready to send off to our fictional client. The primary version looks great with all the gradients and effects, and will retain its quality when scaled. Then there’s the flat and mono versions that maintain the logo’s versatility and allow it to be reproduced anywhere. | <urn:uuid:33bdeb0b-0201-4c20-b008-9523e97cde87> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://blog.spoongraphics.co.uk/tutorials/create-a-cool-ribbon-style-logo-graphic-in-illustrator | 2021-03-07T05:10:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178376144.64/warc/CC-MAIN-20210307044328-20210307074328-00557.warc.gz | en | 0.862328 | 1,100 | [

GAME NAME: Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty
DEVELOPER(S): Blizzard Entertainment
PUBLISHER(S): Blizzard Entertainment
GENRE(S): Real-Time Strategy
RELEASE DATE(S): July 27th, 2010
Starcraft 2 was one of the most anticipated and long awaited games of all time. Blizzard, the team that has brought us games like World of Warcraft and Diablo, finally brings us the sequal everyone has been waiting on for over 10 years. Starcraft is an RTS (real time strategy) to the absolute core. It has a rock, paper, scissors concept which works really well. There are three different races that all have their own play style. You have the Zerg, who are a fast moving rush race. The well balanced Terran, and the slow but powerful protoss. So depending on your style you can choose many different tactics. As the story goes, it’s all about power, money, and saving the humans (Terrans) from getting destroyed.The core game play is that you have to collect minerals and vespene gas. With those you can build your army. You can upgrade your units to have better armor and better weapons. You can build everything from planes, tanks, a mother ship and many other things. The game is one of the most balanced games I have ever played. There is always a way to kill something but the key to the game is speed. If you can build units faster than the other guy, you will win. Blizzard always updates the game to make sure no one can find loop holes and cheat.
Starcraft 2 on single player mode is actually very good. Now unlike the original Starcraft you only get one campaign which is the Terran.The biggest change to starcraft 2 is the RPG elements to the game. When going between missions you will get to choose upgrades to different units and their weapons, armor, etc. What I also really enjoyed was the way everything was laid out. It’s like a comic book that you can click on and move, and characters can talk and interact with one another. Very cool. The gameplay is simple but extremely complex. Anyone can pick up and play the game but those that know the ins and outs of the games will be good at it. You mine minerals and gas to build your army. Jim Rayner, who was the hero from the first game, is trying to save the love of his life from the Zerg. Kerrigan, once a human but now is the queen of the Zerg, controls all of them. The love Jim has for her will not stop him from getting her back and will not let anything stand in his way.
The multi-player mode is the biggest thing about the game with the new Battle Net. You can play custom maps that anyone can make or play competitively with everyone across the world. What Blizzard has done very well is the is the ranking system that determines who you play and who you play with so you don’t have to face someone that has epic skills.
The graphics in the game haven’t changed too much of course. It’s in third person now so you can zoom in and out, everything is in HD but it looks the same as the other games. I believe they did this so everyone can play their game, because their last game you could play on your moms old computer. Probably the only thing about the game that was disappointing were the graphics. There are multiple games that have better graphics like War Hammer 40k which blows SC2 out of the water. The dialogue in the game was awesome from classic catch phrases when you click on the units, and great music through the whole whole game.
In closing, Starcraft 2 is everything you could have asked for in a sequal for a new RTS except the graphics. Great and familiar game play. Simple, yet complex. What would have been nice from Blizzard also would be to not come out with three titles but beggars cant be choosers | <urn:uuid:02db514d-852b-4de1-953e-93851c64bb98> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://gamegravy.com/review/starcraft-ii-wings-of-liberty/ | 2021-03-07T06:30:25Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178376144.64/warc/CC-MAIN-20210307044328-20210307074328-00557.warc.gz | en | 0.975578 | 817 | [

You don't need me, the news or a thermometer to confirm that it's hot out there. We Brits love to talk about the weather, and usually we're prepared for all eventualities, but this heatwave has left us in a bit of a pickle (who else is melting on public transport and consuming too many Soleros?). Let's just say 35-degree weather is not our comfort zone, so what is one to wear?
We've been gearing up for this blast of Saharan warmth for quite some time and have already told you all about the summer staples required for a decent heatwave-proof working wardrobe, the best sandals for keeping your feet cool, the breeziest dress style to opt for, what our team is actually wearing to the office right now and so on.
You might be on the lookout for inspiration, and maybe you'd like it to come with a celebrity stamp of approval. So rather than anything outrageous (remember, celebs can wear whatever they want when they've got chauffeur-driven cars and people to fan them), I've delved into the picture agencies to find you shots of A-listers wearing genuinely appropriate hot-weather outfits.
From Selena Gomez in a fabulous linen dress from Three Graces to Yara Shahidi's casual wear to way shorts, keep on scrolling to see and shop these looks.
Style Notes: Many girls have fallen for the slinky charms of a Réalisation dress over the past few summers. Emily does her usual summer styling trick and adds sneakers for comfort.
Style Notes: Not only are floral cotton dresses having a moment, but anything with a bit of swish and volume in this fabric will always be cooler to wear than a synthetic or tight-fitting option. You can always swap in sandals for a little extra foot-cooling. | <urn:uuid:4b5b3251-5156-4b43-bad9-449e2d1a6e41> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://www.whowhatwear.co.uk/heatwave-celebrity-outfits | 2021-03-07T05:00:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178376144.64/warc/CC-MAIN-20210307044328-20210307074328-00557.warc.gz | en | 0.945429 | 377 | [

A week after the riot at the Capitol, Tucker Carlson said he was disgusted with how Democrats and the media were using the violence to get more control over the government.
Carlson reiterated his view that the violence was wrong and should be punished, and then added that violence wasn’t the only thing Republicans were against. “We’re also against lying,” Carlson said. “Political propaganda is its own form of violence it. Destroys people’s minds. In the end, it enslaves them.”
“You can judge for yourself what happened last Wednesday in Washington . . . . You know what that was, and you also know what it wasn’t. It was not an act of racism. It was not an insurrection. It wasn’t an armed invasion by a brigade of dangerous white supremacists. It wasn’t. Those are lies.”
Carlson said Democrats and the media were demanding that people believe the lies because they thought it would give them more power.
“Something bad has happened therefore you have to hand the worst people in the world the keys to your life. See how that works?” he said.

bush conveyor chain
bush hog chain blade
chain tensioner bush
bush hog chain deflector
The roller chain is a chain used to transmit mechanical power and is widely used in home, industrial and agricultural machinery, including conveyors, plotters, printing machines, automobiles, motorcycles, and bicycles. It is linked by a series of short cylindrical rollers and driven by a gear called a sprocket. This is a simple, reliable and efficient power transmission device.
bush roller chain drive
High strength chains are generally built in accordance with ANSI or BS and are dimensionally identical to Heavy Series Drive chains, but are specially designed and incorporate pins produced from medium carbon alloy steel. These pins are through-hardened to give the chain a higher working load capacity and additional resistance to fatigue in high load and pulsating type applications. There is much more to consider when choosing chains than just load capacity
Praesent Sapien Massa Convallis a Pellentesque Nec.
There are many other variations of chain such as leaf and conveyor. Conveyor Chain, which as the name would suggests is used to convey products, generally within an industrial application such as a car factory.
Leaf chains generally have greater tensile strength than roller versions, and run over sheaves rather than sprockets. They are commonly used as counterweight for machine tools, elevator and oven doors, and fork lift truck masts, spinning frames and similar lifting or balancing applications.
Every forklift has a mast - two vertical interlocking rails guided by bushings and rollers. Operated by a lever in the cab, the mast is driven by hydraulic cylinders, linked to the forklift's motor or an air pump, which enable the mast to go up, down or tilt sideways.
how to bush up chain of hearts
The forks, also called blades or tines, are attached to the main body of the truck through a mast chain and lift chain with a gear at the top of the mast. When the hydraulic cylinders push the mast up, the gears on the mast push against the roller chains. Because the lift chain is attached to the forklift's frame, this makes the forks move up or down depending upon the rotation of the mastrollers.
chain tensioner bush
Specialty steel is used for the lift chain and mast chain so they can handle shock loads and withstand wear and tear. A special design of link plates and pins is necessary to make the chains flexible and to accommodate their reciprocating motion. The chains are guided by roller bearings and move over sheaves instead of sprockets. Because a Caterpillar lift chain will have different dimensions from a Daewoo truck, parts suppliers offer chains in bulk or cut-to-length for individual forklift operators.
bush hog tiller chain
Inasmuch as the bearings, bushings and chain system is constantly subjected to stress, it must be carefully inspected every day or before the truck is put into operation. Chains must be properly lubricated all the time. Rust and corrosion in the chain may require replacement of the parts. An elongation of the chain by more than 3% means that strength is reduced by 15% and the chain must be replaced. If plate cracking is discovered, a new chain must be installed before the forklift is put back into service. Twisted or turned pins may be caused by lack of lubrication and result in chain failure.

At New Lambton Family Dental, we understand that you want to enhance your smile, and find the best solution for tooth loss in New Lambton, NSW. Our dentists believe that dental implants are very similar to natural teeth.
A dental implant begins with an assessment by one of our New Lambton, NSW dentists. If it is determined that you are a good candidate for dental implants, the next step is x-rays to decide the best placement for your dental implant post.
Following this, Dr Maria Paez or Dr Jonathan Michael surgically implant your post—it is a small titanium screw that bonds with your jawbone to create a solid tooth root for your crown, implant-supported denture, or supported bridge. It generally takes several months for the implant post to thoroughly bond with your jawbone.
When healing and bonding are complete, you are ready for your restoration.
At New Lambton Family Dental, we colour and shape your restoration to match your smile.
The entire process may take several months, depending on healing time between implant post and restoration placement.
If you’re considering dental implants in New Lambton, NSW, we welcome you to call our dental surgery to book a consultation.
We proudly serve New Lambton, Adamstown, Kotara and surrounding locations. | <urn:uuid:aae5c922-e5c5-4a49-abc0-08265c63492b> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://www.newlambtonfamilydental.com.au/faq/process-dental-implant/23947 | 2021-02-27T10:41:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178358798.23/warc/CC-MAIN-20210227084805-20210227114805-00597.warc.gz | en | 0.91881 | 267 | [

"Life is about learning
no matter the cost.
If you follow your Compass,
you will never have lost.
Your Inner Compass That Could
Each and every one of us has an Inner Compass.
It is an in-born guidance that sends you quiet signals to help you navigate life from a place of inner truth, passion, and soul alignment.
Your Inner Compass is:
> the little voice in your head that whispers when something feels right or wrong.
> the gut feeling you get when you something just 'feels off'.
> the spark in your heart and the fire in your eyes when you are so passionate about something that there is nothing else you would rather be doing.
> the immediate answer that comes to you when reflecting on a decision to be make or a dilemma to resolve.
> your inner voice -- your very own unique-to-you soul GPS.
Your Inner Compass is your intuition, which connects you with your inner self and your inner truth.
Kids need to know they are in the driver's seat of their life and they have an inborn tool at their disposal to help guide them through the twists and turns of life with clarity and trust.
That's what Inner Compass Books do. Our books are meant to help kids learn how to connect, reflect, build trust, and follow their own inner compass.
Inner Compass Books are so much more than your average children's books.
Self empowerment lasts a lifetime.
Between the ages of birth to 7 years of age, children are forming their core beliefs about themselves and how the world works. This means, they are little sponges--absorbing information from what they read, watch, hear, learn, see, and experience. Imagine the impact of empowering messages in stories of following your inner compass, seeing mistakes as opportunities to grow, and knowing that you are powerful beyond measure. How could that affect their mental programming? Let's build those little ones up... for their lifetime.
Grow through what you go through.
Growth mindset is all the rage for a reason. It's powerful. When kids know that "Mistakes are for learning," it takes the pressure off to achieve perfection. Growing through what you go through, failing forward, and always looking for the learning in every mistake or problem is a powerful mindset that is ALWAYS conveyed and demonstrated in Inner Compass Books.
Self awareness matters.
When kids are connected with themselves, they are more self-aware of their needs, their feelings, and their emotions. Self connection leads to self reflection, self understanding, connecting with one's inner compass, and making conscious decisions that are aligned with oneself. Inner Compass Books demonstrate how various characters learn to navigate through challenges in life by being connected within.
"Reading without reflecting is like eating without digesting."
We believe in the power of self reflection. Not only can self reflection make you think, but it can also open up your mind and your heart to new possibilities.
What better way to encourage independent thinking than prompting self reflection with a question? Questions hold power because they allow the child to find their own answers. Each of our Inner Compass Books is complete with Reflection Questions after the story to allow the reader to dive deeper into the concepts within each book and reflect upon what he or she might have done if faced with a similar situation.
There is infinite value in learning to stay true to yourself.
People are, and always have been, swayed from their truth by what they think they should be, do, or have. Inner Compass Books show kids that following your passions, pursuing your dreams, sharing your unique gifts, and following your inner compass are incredible guideposts that hold infinite value. Our books also show that even if you stray off track from your truth, you can always reconnect and find your way back.
We cannot control how our children experience life, but we can choose to feed their amazing minds with empowering content and learning opportunities that teach them to trust their inner knowing, follow their passions, and create a life full of fulfillment, impact and purpose.
(Imagine if you read these books as a kid. What would you have done differently?

About the Author
For most of her life, Kristin Pierce was dominantly a left-brained, logical thinker who was greatly unaware of the many creative bones within her. For the past decade, she has been developing her intuition, which has allowed her to dismantle loads of limiting beliefs that were hiding her creative bones. In doing so, she discovered she was able to unearth other right brain qualities that were nearly impossible for her to access since childhood -- including creativity, imagination, and innovation -- which allowed all kinds of wonderful things to unfurl, such as these books.
Kristin is a self-awareness educator whose mission is to empower others to deconstruct their self-limiting beliefs that are keeping them small and stuck in order to rise to their potential, come alive, and impact the world.
One day, while completing a rhyming scrapbook for her baby, Kristin Pierce had a fleeting pipe dream enter her awareness...
Inner Compass Books was officially born in 2018 and it all began
with a pipe dream:

Americans will hand out 600 million pounds of candy this Halloween, making it the second-sweetest holiday on the books, trailing only Easter.
That’s a relatively modern phenomenon, the most recent permutation of an observance that stretches back more than 2,000 years, to the Celtic harvest festival of Samhain, pronounced “sow-in,” rhymes with “cow-in.” The celebration was appropriated by Christianity in the 8th Century and renamed All Hallows to celebrate all those hallowed saints.
The traditional night of fun before the holiday, All Hallows Eve, morphed into Halloween along the way, bringing with it Celtic tales of ghosts and goblins and medieval traditions that involved roaming door to door in costume, begging for food or money.
The holiday came to America with Irish and Scottish immigrants in the 1800s, but it remained predominantly focused on the harvest, with apples and cider as the main treats.
Fast-forward to 1920. World War I is just over, and American Doughboys have come home with a sweet tooth from the candy and other treats included in their rations. American and Caribbean sugar producers have a banner year, creating a glut that trashes prices, making candy production an easy business for all comers.
Many of America’s most iconic candies were created at that time, including Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, the Baby Ruth, Abba-Zaba, Bit-O-Honey, BB Bats, the Charleston Chew, Slo Pokes, Black Cows, Chuckles and Dubble Bubble chewing gum.
And Jujubes and Jujyfruits and Kits and Milk Duds, the Milky Way and Zero bars, Walnetto and O Henry!
1920 was also the first year in which a majority of Americans lived in cities, and the post-war period’s low unemployment and higher wages meant households could afford more store-bought goods. Homemade sweets were an early casualty, with retail candy replacing such traditional treats as doughnuts, taffy and candy apples.
Halloween was a godsend for manufacturers, who had been searching for another candy-focused fete to help even out sales between Easter and Christmas, their attempts to sweeten up George Washington’s birthday, St. Patrick’s Day and the Fourth of July having not quite taken off.
They found a willing ally in Herbert Hoover, then commerce secretary and on a campaign toeliminate inefficiency in business. (In doing so he stepped on so many other cabinet positions that he was known as “Secretary of Commerce and Under-Secretary of all other Departments.”)
“The confectioners were model clients of the Department of Commerce,” notes April Merleaux, a historian and the author of Sugar and Civilization. “They organized into industry associations, did cooperative national advertising campaigns, shared market information, used data generated by government-employed statisticians, and promoted modern business practices.”
Population density also helped spread the Halloween tradition, and by the 1950s it had become the widespread, kid-focused, costume-wearing, candy-grubbing event we know today. And, arguably, the perfect holiday for the perfectly planned neighborhoods of suburbia.
Halloween was always one of my favorite holidays. Not quite as good as Christmas, maybe, but certainly a notch above Easter, which also offered candy but required you to attend Mass.
In my day, during the early 1960s, neighborhood kids traveled in packs, sans parents, the older ones keeping an eye on the small fry. We were a ragtag bunch of pillowcase ghosts and wooden-sword pirates, others with a simple dime store plastic mask.
Homemade fudge or a popcorn ball were still common handouts when I was a trick-or-treater, even fresh-baked cookies or brownies. On the candy front, all those 1920s brands were still around, plus new treats like Smarties, Atomic Fire Balls, Sugar Babies and Bonomo Turkish Taffy.
There were three-packs of candy cigarettes, plus wax mini-bottles and sheets of candy buttons, as well as an assortment of loose pieces that ended up in the bottom of your bag, including circus peanuts, red vines and root beer barrels.
That I have as many of my own teeth as I do is a tribute to my parents, who confiscated our treat bags at the end of the night and doled the contents out so slowly that we often were eating candy corns at Christmas.
I’m happy to report they’re good anytime. Hope your entire month is a safe and happy one. | <urn:uuid:f292f40e-6caf-4852-85b3-c93764e25b1d> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://www.longislandpress.com/2017/10/29/from-the-publisher-sweet-memories/ | 2021-03-01T00:16:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178361808.18/warc/CC-MAIN-20210228235852-20210301025852-00277.warc.gz | en | 0.969612 | 975 | [

The Last Scramble
The Last Scramble of Avenger Red: F-89C Scorpion, 51-5853A
Many people do not realize it today, but in the early 1950s Americans believed a surprise attack by the Soviet Union was imminent. The threat of nuclear annihilation ensured that military planes on routine missions in the northern states were always packing “hot” guns. Planes known as “interceptors” were always ready to defend against anticipated bombers that might fly south over the frozen wastes of northern Canada. But in 1953, a plane based out of Wisconsin was involved in a different kind of engagement, which would later become known as the Kinross Incident. Wisconsin Air National Guard units were federalized during those early years of the Cold War. Truax Field ANG Base in Madison, was reactivated by the USAF on February 1, 1951. By 1953, two Air Defense Command fighter interceptor squadrons were based there under the command of Lt. Col. Harry W. Shoup. While most ADC units at the time flew older Republic F-84 Thunderjets, F-84F Thunderstreaks, and Lockheed F-94s, Truax received the most modern interceptors in the USAF inventory because of its proximity to Canada. The 432nd FIS flew single seat North American F-86D Sabre Dogs, armed with air-to-air rockets, while the 433rd FIS operated cannon-armed Northrup F-89C Scorpions. Both squadrons were part of the 4706th Air Defense Wing. Madison’s Interceptors Temporary Assignment to Kinross
Kinross Air Force Base was at the eastern tip of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, 20 miles south of Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. Like Truax, it had been deactivated at the end of WWII. With the start of the Cold War in 1948, and the Korean War in June 1950, Kinross was reopened on July 1, 1952. Kinross was a vital ADC alert-status base. It was tasked with providing air defense for Sault Ste. Marie and the Upper Great Lakes, and was the home base of the 438thFIS.
The squadron’s Rapid Deployment missions were initiated by USAF Ground Control Intercept (GCI) teams. Kinross interceptors were ready to scramble 24/7, whenever GCI ADC surveillance radars picked up unknown aircraft. When scrambled, GCI stations directed the interceptors to the targets. Two radar stations directed Kinross in November 1953: GCI station Naples P-66 and GCI station Pillow P-16. Radar from each isolated station covered 994 square miles.
In November 1953, the Lockheed F-94B interceptors usually based at Kinross, were sent to Arizona for aerial gunnery practice. Kinross needed jets ready to respond to threats so the 433rd FIS stepped in. Four F-89C Scorpion interceptors and their eight crewmen flew to Kinross. Scorpions almost always operated in pairs. Two pairs of Scorpions with their four crewmen waited ready in hangers. They took 12-hour shifts, standing on 5 minute alert.
The F-89C Scorpion Interceptor
The Northrop F-89 Scorpion first flew on August 16, 1948, and became operational in 1952. It was the USAF’s second all-weather jet powered interceptor. Its only mission was to defend the desolate arctic area of North America from Soviet bomber formations. It was a large jet with a wingspan of 56 feet and a length of 53 feet 5 inches. The improved Northrop F-89C Scorpion first flew on September 18, 1951, and among other refinements, had a fuel purging system to alleviate the danger of fuel vapor explosions. The F-89C Scorpion also received a strengthened horizontal tail and forged steel wing attachment points. There were a total of 164 of these C-version planes. In the last production, 19 of these planes were fitted with two Allison J35-A-33A turbojets rated at 7,400 pounds of thrust by its Solar afterburners. With the new engine, these Scorpions could hit 650 mph at sea level and 562 mph at 40,000 feet. It possessed an initial climb rate of 12,300 feet per minute and had a ceiling of 50,500 feet, impressive for the time.
In the Scorpion, the pilot sat in the front seat, and the radar operator sat in the rear of the pressurized cockpit. The C-version Scorpion used Hughes Aircraft x-band AN/APG-33 fire control radar. The air intercept radar incorporated the E-1 fire control system, and had a 20-mile range. Six M-24 Hispano-Suiza gas operated, 20mm auto cannons, were located in the nose with 200 rounds for each gun. The cannons had a cyclic rate of 850 rpm and a range of 7,000 yards. The F-89C Scorpion was very stable and reliable, capable of flying home on one engine. But with a combat weight of 33,100 pounds it was sluggish and disliked by day-fighter pilots.
The plane also had decelerons mounted on the trailing edge of the wings. These acted as both ailerons and split-air brakes. Brakes were deployed when diving or closing on a target. Extremely effective, these brakes once caused an F-89 Scorpion plane to fall from the sky when it was accidentally deployed. On the afternoon of November 23, F-89C Scorpion, serial number 51-5853A, call sign “Avenger Red”, was on five-minute alert status. Earlier in the day, the plane had been given a thorough pre-flight inspection (at 07:30 EST). Avenger Red was scrambled at 11:45 EST and returned to base at 12:45 EST. Upon her return, the ground crew immediately serviced and spot-checked her. She was towed back to the alert hanger and filled with an hour and 45 minutes of fuel.
By late afternoon, a low front centered over Northern Minnesota, was moving east with ceilings as low as 500 feet. Scattered light snow showers limited visibility in some areas to 1-2 miles. Horsefly Orders the Scramble
At the northeast corner of Detroit, Michigan, GCI station Horsefly P-20 operated a pair of powerful General Electric AN/CPS-6 medium range search/height finder radar sets. The units had a maximum range of 240 miles. Unexpectedly, at 18:00 EST, just as the sun had set, a blip appeared on Horsefly’s scopes. A bogey had materialized, and was possibly stationary over the locks at the east end of Lake Superior, near Sault Ste. Marie. The area was restricted air space because the locks connected Lake Superior with the other Great Lakes. The controller was alarmed. Later, the USAF would claim the bogey was over 500 miles away at the west end of Lake Superior. But the fact that Horsefly picked up the bogey tends to support that it was near the locks.
Horsefly notified Naples that it wanted a check on the unknown target, and assigned the bogey the designation A-27-A. Neither station received radio replies from target A-27-A. Naples called Kinross at 18:17 EST to scramble one interceptor. There was a 4,000 foot overcast, with a visibility of eight miles, when Avenger Red went airborne at 18:22 EST on the active air defense mission. Pilot Dave Eby watched the Scorpion scramble on afterburners, and climb into the night sky without incident.
Avenger Red’s Crew
Avenger Red was piloted by 26-year-old First Lt. Felix Eugene Moncla Jr. Always calm and collected, he possessed a slow distinctive drawl. He had received a BS at Southwest Louisiana Institute before enlisting in the US Army in WWII. After the war, he attended the school of medicine at University of New Orleans and applied for a commission in the USAF. He was called to active duty at the start of the Korean War as an officer pilot trainee and received basic pilot training at Connally AFB at Waco, Texas. Moncla went through advanced pilot training at Reese AFB in Lubbock, Texas and Scorpion F-89 training at Tyndall AFB in Panama City, Florida. He moved with his wife and son from Moreauville, Louisiana to Madison, Wisconsin in July 1952. His daughter was born there the following year in June.
Lt. Moncla’s radar operator was Second Lt. Robert L. Wilson from Ponca City, Oklahoma. Wilson was born on November 16, 1931 and had just turned 22. He was single and had been assigned to the unit in June 1952.
Both officers were relatively experienced. Lt. Moncla had logged 811:10 flight hours: 121:40 in Scorpion F-89s; 101:00 on instruments; and 91:50 at night. He had also flown T-33 and F-94B aircraft. Lt. Wilson had 206:45 hours of flight time, 11:30 at night.
Streaking Out to Intercept Bogey Target A-27-A
After Avenger Red became airborne, Lt. Moncla called Naples on channel 10 (UHF-2). The station was three miles southwest of Sault Ste. Marie and was operating GE AN/FPS-3 and AN/FPS-5 radar. Avenger Red was given a vector of 300 degrees magnetic at angels 30, or 30,000 feet.
As Avenger Red streaked out at 500 mph, several other GCI stations were monitoring the event as it unfolded. Pillow, Horsefly, P-67, and RCAF Station Pagwa C-14 and Armstrong CFS C-15 on the Pine Tree Line in Ontario, run jointly by the RCAF and USAF were all watching. GCI station P-34, was using AN/CPS-6B radar just southeast of Empire, Michigan and also had the power to monitor the situation. Twenty or more men were observing, or actively participating, in what would become known as the Kinross Incident. Several, off-record and contrary to the official USAF, reports stated that target A-27-A headed northwest, out over the lake.
GCI station Pillow was near the isolated tip of Keweenaw Peninsula, just 5 miles southeast of Phoenix, Michigan. The station had opened on May 1, 1951 and used GE AN/FPS-3 and AN/FPS-5 search radar. They had a range of 60 miles at 40,000 feet but under the right conditions could track to 210 miles. At Pillow, Second Lt. Douglas A. Stuart was monitoring the intercept. Pillow was reading Avenger Red faintly. The station’s radar was painting the Scorpion intermittently, on every other sweep, and Lt. Moncla’s radio transmissions were filled with static. Equipment checks showed no malfunctions at Pillow.
Naples was controlling the intercept and vectored Avenger Red for 19 minutes. Avenger Red had to make an additional, undocumented starboard turn early in the flight. Lt. Moncla’s flight time and the airspeed also indicated that there was more maneuvering unreported by USAF documents. At 18:41 EST, Naples turned over the control of Avenger Red to Pillow, although they continued to have poor reception with the fighter. Lt. Moncla had no such problem and radioed that he was reading them clearly. He was directed to switch to channel 12 (UHF-1) but when his reception remained the same Pillow instructed Moncla to switch back to channel 10. Lt. Moncla contacted Pillow at 18:45 EST and asked if the intercept mission should be discontinued due to the station’s weak signal reception. Lt. Stuart advised him that continuance of the mission was up to his discretion. Lt. Moncla continued to pursue still unidentified target A-27-A, informing Pillow that pilot discretion was approved.
Apparently, the target changed course and accelerated as Avenger Red approached. Moncla was instructed at 18:46 EST to make a port turn to 270 degrees magnetic and to descend to 7,000 feet. The air was stable with no turbulence, and visibility at 10 to 12 miles. Avenger Red was still above a broken layer of altostratus clouds running 10,000 to 15,000 feet, and a solid deck of stratocumulus clouds running from 2,000 feet up to 6 or 7,000 feet. There was moderate to heavy icing in all the clouds, but Avenger Red had deicing equipment. Lt. Moncla replied, “Steady on 270 degrees.” He now came in loud and clear, and Pillow told him so.
Pillow radioed a clock and range report to Lt. Moncla, along with the unidentified flying target’s track and altitude. Lt. Moncla acknowledged the message. Radar operator Lt. Wilson was unable to read the target and GCI continued to direct them. At 18:49 EST, Lt. Moncla radioed that he was descending through 25,000 feet. A westerly wind was blowing 35 knots at that elevation. Pillow relayed that Horsefly warned he might encounter icing conditions at the target’s altitude. Lt. Moncla acknowledged and then asked for “pigeons to home plate” asking for a vector and range back to his home base, in case of trouble. Pillow radioed 150 degrees, 125 miles and Lt. Moncla acknowledged.
Avenger Red Vanishes
Lt. Moncla entered Canadian airspace and Lt. Stuart instructed him to turn starboard (right) to 020 degrees magnetic, his cut-off vector. Normally, Scorpions approached targets from the rear. This was no game, the Scorpion was armed and ready to engage if its target proved unfriendly. Lt. Wilson continued to have problems locking on the target. GCI radioed at 18:52 EST that the unknown was at Lt. Moncla’s 11:00 position at 10 miles.
Lt. Moncla acknowledged and added that he did not see the target. Pillow relayed another clock and range report, and stated the target was moving from port to starboard. Station P-67, monitoring the interception, watched the Scorpion close in on bogey target A-27-A.
Through slight static, Lt. Moncla stated, “I have an eyeball on the target, am going in for a closer look.” With each transmission, the static grew and each message became increasingly unintelligible. They were 70 miles northeast of Keweena point, 40 miles southwest of the Canadian shoreline, and 150 miles northwest of Kinross at 48:00 north, 86:49 west. Pillow radioed that they would set up another intercept of the target if needed, but received no reply.
To the GCI stations, it suddenly appeared that the unidentified moving target either stopped, or unexpectedly turned 180 degrees accelerating toward the Scorpion. It is possible, but highly unlikely that Lt. Moncla accelerated greatly during the final intercept. Unexpectedly, the radar images merged at 8,000 feet.
At first, Pillow believed that Lt. Moncla was flying formation with the target, but his IFF signal (Identification Friend Foe) disappeared off the screen. Pillow frantically attempted to contact Lt. Moncla every few seconds.
A lone radar signal began to head north, and then vanished. Unofficially, radar operators claimed that it appeared as if the unidentified bogey target A-27-A had swallowed Lt. Moncla’s plane.
Naples was contacted and asked to radio Lt. Moncla while Horsefly ordered Kinross to scramble another interceptor. Another Scorpion, Avenger Purple, piloted by Second Lt. Howard R. Nordeck, scrambled at 19:42 EST. Avenger Black, piloted by Second Lt. Mingenbach, had already been airborne since 19:15 EST, on an unrelated Civil Aviation Patrol mission. Avenger Black raced toward the last coordinates of Avenger Red, as its radar operator attempted to make contact on UHF channels 1, 9, 10, 11, I (NATO), and the ANG channel.
Lt. Mingenbach of Avenger Black called Naples on channel 10 at 19:18 EST and was told to vector 330 degrees, angels 20. They were reading Naples clearly. Encountering cloud layers, Lt. Mingenbach radioed GCI and requested an altitude change to angels 30, which Naples granted.
At 19:35 EST both Lt. Mingenbach and his radar operator heard a brief, five-second transmission on channel 10 at 25,000 feet. Both men distinctly heard Lt. Moncla say, “I think we better…” followed by several garbled words. They felt that it was a communication from Lt. Moncla to Lt. Wilson. Unable to contact Lt. Moncla, Avenger Black broke through the clouds at 29,000 feet without icing and leveled at angels 30. Naples vectored Avenger Black to 270 degrees and then control passed to Pillow. They were 150 miles from home plate, over Lt. Moncla’s last known position, when Horsefly requested Pillow to instruct Avenger Black to letdown to investigate. Kinross warned that there could be severe icing in the clouds. However, Lt. Mingenbach’s plane, unlike Lt. Moncla’s, did not have retractable engine screens and he was not sure that his anti-icing system was operating. He hesitated to descend. Pillow and Naples could not override Horsefly, and they let Lt. Mingenbach circle the area at angels 30. Meanwhile, Avenger Black could clearly hear Naples vectoring Avenger Purple on their radio.
Capt. William Bridges, the Officer in Charge of Detachment 1, notified Kinross that they had an overdue aircraft at 20:07 EST. Capt. Bridges took off in the last Scorpion F-89C at 20:30 EST. When Avenger Purple was 30 miles from Avenger Black, Horsefly requested that all three interceptors return to home plate and land. Avenger Black was the last to return and had a normal letdown at 20:55 EST.
The 49th Air Rescue Squadron at Selfridge AFB was alerted that a Scorpion F-89 was down at 22:00 EST. Avenger Red had two rubber life rafts and its crew wore life vests, but the weather was frigid. Fourteen aircraft, a helicopter, and the USCG cutter Woodrush were hampered by snow and poor visibility. No trace of the missing plane was found.
Rumors soon spread at Selfridge AFB that a Scorpion F-89 from Kinross had been struck by a flying saucer, and the pilots at Kinross believed that Avenger Red was captured by the UFO.
A Mystery Explained
Initially, Truax Field released a press-statement that the missing F-89 Scorpion had struck an unknown target over Lake Superior. Appalled, the USAF offered a scant explanation for what happened to the plane, and erased any mention of the mission and the chasing of an unknown target from the records. Norton AF Flying Safety Division suggested that Lt. Moncla suffered from vertigo and crashed despite the fact he was flying on instruments. An AF officer told Bobbie Jean Moncla that her husband had undershot a Canadian airliner while identifying it and had hit the lake. A second officer solemnly told her that no bodies could be recovered as the jet had exploded at high altitude. The USAF eventually stuck with the explosion theory. The focus of the investigation quickly shifted from the cause of the disappearance, to the identity of A-27-A.
USAF officers soon began to state that the GCI radar operators had read their scopes wrong and that the UFO was merely a commercial Canadian DC-3. Officially, the USAF claimed that the target was a RCAF Douglas C-47 Dakota, a military version of the DC-3, assigned identification number VC-912. The C-47 had departed from CFB Rockcliffe on November 21 bound for Sudbury, Canada. Flying east, it had entered over the west end of the lake and wandered 30 miles to the north off its intended course.
The USAF stated the stray C-47 had been detected at the west end of the lake by Horsefly, even though that was well beyond the range of Horsefly. The crew of the C-47 included Flight Officer Lt. Gerald Fosberg, of the 412th Squadron. Lt. Fosberg stated that he had been flying in a straight line from Fort William airport, to Sault Ste. Marie at 7,000 feet. They had been flying at 170 mph above a solid deck. There were clear skies above and unlimited visibility. Lt. Fosberg was adamant that he was flying with radio directional equipment and was not 30 miles off course, nor was he ever contacted by GCI for identification purposes. Rather, Lt. Fosberg stated he was contacted by GCI after the loss of Moncla’s signal, and asked if they had seen the missing plane. Lt. Fosberg replied that they had not seen anything.
Ghost images were blamed for creating the target image on radar, implying that Avenger Red was scrambled to intercept its own radar echo or shadow, and had finally intercepted it over the lake. This incredulous theory was Project Blue Book’s explanation for the loss. Dr. Donald H. Menzel, UFO debunker and Harvard University astronomer, suggested that GCI had seen a phantom echo of the Scorpion F-89, due to atmospheric conditions.
It must be noted that the USAF did not include this theory in their accident investigation. | <urn:uuid:60a29d7d-34c9-4de8-a1c0-97996cb5b2e5> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://www.fatemag.com/post/the-last-scramble | 2021-03-02T14:02:05Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178364008.55/warc/CC-MAIN-20210302125936-20210302155936-00597.warc.gz | en | 0.977638 | 4,539 | [

Greenville, S.C., (Jan. 8, 2019) – The Hispanic Alliance, in partnership with the Community Foundation of Greenville and Furman University, is hosting a special event to unveil Hispanics in Greenville, a needs assessment study evaluating the current state of the Hispanic/Latino community in Greenville County. The public is invited to this presentation of the research findings on Tuesday, January 29th from 8:30 a.m. until 10:00 a.m. at the Commerce Club (55 Beattie Place, 17th floor, Greenville, SC). Dr. Courtney Quinn and Dr. Matt Cohen of Furman University provided consultation on survey methodology and data collection as well as the final data analysis and completion of a comprehensive report, which will be available for all attendees. Dr. Quinn will present a brief summary of the study’s findings and their potential relevance for the community at large. Adela Mendoza, Hispanic Alliance Executive Director and Bob Morris, Community Foundation of Greenville President will provide opening and closing remarks.
As a catalyst for strategic collaboration on behalf of the Hispanic community, the Hispanic Alliance has applied its cultural capital and understanding of the county’s social and cultural ecosystem towards the development of this community needs assessment. This initiative began in 2017 with an eye towards discovering gaps in access to essential resources and services, and pinpointing social disparities in areas such as education, health, and economic mobility. The organization hopes that the results of the study will be used by stakeholders across sectors to inform appropriate interventions and improve quality of life for the entire Greenville community.
Hispanic population growth in Greenville County continues to exceed the overall rate of growth, now comprising nearly 10% of the population. “This upward trend has been consistent for the past three decades, placing the Hispanic community squarely on the radar of forward-thinking community partners,” explains Adela Mendoza. “The Hispanic Alliance is committed to facilitating understanding and inclusion of this population in all aspects of society by providing reliable and up-to-date data, elevating its needs, assets, and aspirations, and helping partners build programmatic and systemic capacity to extend opportunity to all people”.
Surveys were conducted through in-depth interviews with four hundred Hispanic residents representing a broad segment of the population in various locations throughout Greenville County. The survey questions addressed availability of culturally and linguistically appropriate resources, as well as perceived barriers to access related to four key sectors: education, financial stability, healthcare, and legal services. As a result, this report is not only descriptive, but offers insight and guidance into areas of need and potential community interventions to achieve a more equitable community for all.
Funding for this endeavor was generously provided by Community Foundation of Greenville and the Graham Foundation. “Data is the basis for informed decision making and we were glad to help underwrite a study that articulates the contributions of the Hispanic families in Greenville County,” says Bob Morris, president of the Community Foundation of Greenville. The study was made possible thanks to these underwriters as well as the ongoing support of United Way of Greenville County, the Gilreath Foundation, and Hollingsworth Funds.

Can you believe tomorrow we will be celebrating Valentine’s Day? I feel like I have just gotten over all the Christmas cheer and no sooner here is another event calling for treats to derail our efforts!
Now I’m not all humbug about Valentine’s Day… in fact, any opportunity to show love and kindness and do something special for those we love is great.
Especially as some of us need reminding to do this (whether you think it’s just a commercial day or not).
But how do you show your love and support for those who you care about?
You see if you or your loved ones are fasting and focused on losing weight then don’t sabotage their efforts by buying them a huge box of chocolates (you know the ones mass-produced filled with sugar, fat and hardly and real cocoa). I know that it is given with good intentions but it can really hurt someone’s efforts, taking up all their will power not to binge and pig out on them!
Instead, support and encourage them.
And you can still give them a treat just a much healthier one!
Here are my suggestions below:
Buy them a small box of handmade premium quality chocolates that are made from 100% real cocoa containing at least 70% cocoa content. They are full-flavored and better for you!
This option still allows you to get some ‘brownie points’ but without giving them something that can just derail their efforts.
You see good quality real cocoa has many benefits such as making you feel good, is rich in antioxidants, acts as a stress reliever and it’s good for the heart, a great addition to your fasting diet plan… and they actually taste so much nicer!
You really can taste the flavors of the cocoa and other quality ingredients and can savor it; really appreciating the food……which is what we should do when we eat; slow down and appreciate the taste and sensory stimulus (as this also helps the brain know that you are eating).
So if you are going to give Chocolates go for quality over quantity.
And go for healthier options such as the ultimate ‘brownie points’ winner… prepare a batch of homemade healthy and delicious brownies or some of these other simple healthy recipes treats.
Another suggestion is:
To prepare a healthy breakfast in bed for your loved one.
Then go for a walk or do some physical activity together; something that gets you moving. It might be a lovely walk or a bike ride or it might be something fun that you wouldn’t normally do or take your walk at a different location like a beach, a mountain or just get out and throw the ball around with the kids as an entire family… something you have been thinking about for a while but just never done.
Make the gift and surprise more about your time and devotion and not so focused on the food and calories.
What do you think of these suggestions? I hope this helps!

It has been brought to our attention that a rule that was passed at conference has been presented incorrectly.
The rule that was passed is:
Article 259 – Officials 6. Stewards 6.1 The schooling area(s) and warming up area(s) should, and during National and Island championships, Premier and special competitions at the HOY show must always be supervised. One steward at least, should always be present whenever the arenas are in use to ensure that the rules are observed and practice arenas are not overcrowded so that all athletes get a fair chance to use the obstacles. Cups should be removed by the steward from practice arenas at the end of each day to prevent unsupervised jumping. A Chief Steward must always be appointed for NZ and Island Championships, Premier events, Young Horse Jumping Championships, and the HOY show from the list of National or FEI Stewards. All other events must have listed Stewards. See Annex 13.
The intent was to have written All other events SHOULD have listed stewards.
As a result of this we will not be enforcing this rule for this season. It is our intention that ESNZ Jumping Stewards become more commonplace at shows in the future but this will be phased in, and also advertised in advance.
We strongly recommend that stewards are present at all shows holding Series Classes.

No reader questions today. I've got a story of my own to tell. One sure to quake your bones, disrupt your sleep, and make you wonder why you ever bought a PC.
My Lenovo laptop started acting odd recently. Never mind the sordid details. Let me put a positive spin on it and say that some programs actually worked, and a few tasks didn't crash the PC. What was the cause? If it was malware, no scanner could detect it. The Registry? Three different Registry repair programs found and repaired all sorts of inconsistencies without positive effect. Would System Restore help? I ran it so many times Vista deleted all the restore points--presumably just to make me stop.
(If you're a Mac of Linux user, now would be a good time to go to the bottom of this article and add a smug, self-satisified "Windoze" comment.)
After a week or so of strife, I knew I had only one option left: reformat the hard drive and restore Vista. Luckily, I had written an article on that very subject only a few weeks ago. With my knowledge and my notes, what could be the problem?
With my experience, I should have known better.
Like most modern PCs, mine came with a hidden recovery partition. After all the proper backups, it should be easy to use that partition to restore everything on the hard drive to its factory state. Except I no longer had that partition. I deleted it when I upgraded my hard drive last August (click here for that nightmare).
Why do I do these things? I'm a fan of Bugs Bunny, but I keep acting like Daffy Duck?
Actually, I had had a good reason to delete that partition. The laptop came with an apparently wonderful image backup program called ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery. I used TVR&R (my acronym) to back up my hard drive soon after buying the PC nearly two years ago. Why waste hard drive space on a hidden partition that restores Windows to Lenovo's preferred settings, when seven DVDs would let me restore it configured for me?
How was I to know that Rescue and Recovery doesn't actually rescue or restore anything? Or at least not in my case. Whether I loaded the program from inside Windows or with the bootable DVD, it didn't even give me an option to look for backups from the CD/DVD drive.
I tried copying the contents of those DVDs to an external hard drive. That didn't work, either.
So I called tech support.
In the course of two phone calls, three hours, and uncounted additional gray hairs, I spoke to four support techies (and I use that term lightly). They all offered the same explanation: TVR&R only works if the operating system on your PC matches the one on the backup. When I pointed out that I hadn't changed the operating system, they had no explanation, although one was sure I had changed the OS because Vista, he insisted, had not yet come out in 2007. Eventually one admitted that there was no one in the building who had ever actually seen the program.
I think I kept my vocabulary under control, but I couldn't have been very pleasant.
There's a happy ending. I eventually found another image backup, one I created last summer, and not with TVR&R. It wouldn't be as clean a version of Windows as an older image would provide, but by then, I had wasted one day of what I'd hoped would be a one-day project, and I didn't really want to waste any more.
The funny thing is that up until this happened, I really liked Lenovo. They make great laptops.
My suggestion: Don't trust the recovery tool that came with your PC. Make an image backup when Windows is healthy, make it with a third-party program (click here for some recommendations) and stash it away in a safe place. | <urn:uuid:f336b252-1dd4-4c1a-8d00-292f1bbac44a> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://www.pcworld.com/article/157937/reinstall_windows.html | 2021-03-05T20:04:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178373241.51/warc/CC-MAIN-20210305183324-20210305213324-00597.warc.gz | en | 0.979359 | 810 | [

Ken stands, rigid, transfixed by the slick spreading under his feet. For reasons he can’t fathom, Ken wills the black cloud to expand, to extend another centimetre, another millimetre. An inky big bang. With the last of the oily liquid pulsing and swirling and warming his toes, images bob into his head, distressing pictures of tarred gulls dredged from old TV news. Then, unbidden, a name both long forgotten and yet somehow unforgettable.
“Amoco Cadiz,” he says, pointing to the capsized cafetiere at the puddle’s epicentre. “Look, Cynth. Remember how that was all over the papers during our honeymoon?”
For their ruby wedding anniversary, Ken had suggested returning to France, “for old times’ sake. One last fling. Doesn’t have to be Paris, Cynth. I know we’re not as young as we were. Maybe a few days in Brittany? I’m determined to try an oyster before it’s too late. Or Normandy, perhaps do some battlefields? You used to love a cafe au lait. I’m not suggesting taking the Fiesta, don’t be daft. We could go wild, splash some cash on the Eurostar, say? Trish says it’s amazing.”
Despite Ken’s myriad attempts to convince her, Cynthia wasn’t to be swayed.
“We swan off to France and when we come back, all we’ll have to show for it will be a new set of snaps,” she said.
“If we’re going to spend some money, I’d prefer to spend it on the house,” she said.
“That back room has been looking tired for far too long,” she said.
Hence the “sea moss” walls. The ivory linen Roman blinds. The new cream carpet.
Three weeks ago, on an unseasonably sunny Wednesday afternoon at the bowls club, Ken’s concentration had been disturbed by a figure barging through the pavilion doors.
“Dad! Don’t you ever answer your bloody phone? I’ve been ringing and ringing.”
Ken hadn’t seen Trish in that particular setting for years. Probably, he thought, not since one of the club’s family fun days. She’d had a similar scowl back then, he recalled. He lowered his wood and loped over.
“Trish. Keep it down. Where’s the fire?”
“Dad, it’s Mum. She’s at The Royal. She’s in a bad way. She slipped in the kitchen, Dad. Banged her head. We need to go, Dad.”
“Traumatic brain injury,” the doctor said.
“Massive internal bleeding,” the doctor said.
“Nothing we could do,” the doctor said.
Now Ken stands, rudderless, lost in a rapidly cooling decaffeinated slick. He’s still clutching the tray. Two mugs cling to the edge.
ED BROOM works in IT but tells his children he’s a lighthouse keeper. He lives in Ipswich and tracks down crinkle-crankle walls.

Which inmates participate in prison treatment programs? by Joan Petersilia Download PDF EPUB FB2
One in four or five inmates with identified needs participated in prison treatment programs related to these needs. older inmates were more likely to receive alcohol treatment, whereas younger inmates more often received education and job training.
whites were more likely to receive alcohol rehabilitation and blacks to receive drug treatment. In comparing treatment need with treatment received, it was observed that about one in four or five inmates with identified needs participates in prison treatment programs related to his needs.
Inmates participate in a total of hours of treatment over a 9-month period and programs have 1 staff member for every 24 inmates. Program goals are to identify, confront, and alter the attitudes, values, and thinking patterns that led to criminal behavior and substance abuse.

Dubai refutes claims about fake Facebook comments by sheikh's daughter on Egypt
Mahra Mohammed al-MaktoumDubai’s government has refuted claims that the daughter of a sheikh has protested her emirate’s stance vis-à-vis Egypt’s coup with controversial statements on Facebook.
“Statements circulated via social media attributed to Sheikha Mahra bint Mohammed al-Maktoum on the situation in Egypt are false and untrue,” the Twitter account of the Dubai government said.
Al-Maktoum reportedly posted a comment on a Facebook photo of her father, Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum, saying, “I’m sorry, father, but the reason for the bloodshed [in Egypt] is our money.”
“The false statements were circulated through media outlets citing a fake account on Facebook,” the government statement said.
Qatar’s foreign minister said Aug. 18 that his country had never given aid to Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood and that all assistance went to Egypt as a whole.
“As far as Qatar’s support for the Muslim Brotherhood, there are some wrong impressions about the aid Qatar is providing,” said Foreign Minister Khaled al-Attiyah, whose country is perceived as a backer of the Islamist group. | <urn:uuid:6e525930-72b1-442b-87bf-5a69e0bfa121> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/dubai-refutes-claims-about-fake-facebook-comments-by-sheikhs-daughter-on-egypt-52737 | 2021-03-07T11:54:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178376467.86/warc/CC-MAIN-20210307105633-20210307135633-00277.warc.gz | en | 0.947271 | 290 | [

Mesothelioma and Vietnam Vets
Military veterans have regularly been exposed to asbestos, and this means that they are at increased risk of developing mesothelioma, asbestosis, and other asbestos-related illnesses. In fact, the levels of pleural mesothelioma in Vietnam vets is higher than in any other population group. Because asbestos was able to fireproof, insulate, and strengthen virtually everything, it was considered to be a very useful substance for the military and was used in various items. Unfortunately, exposure to asbestos fibers has been found to be particularly dangerous because these fibers are carcinogenic.
Asbestos in the U.S. Military
For a long time, it was believed asbestos could prevent injuries and burns. While this is true, the reality is that it has also puts lives at risk. As soon as asbestos is damaged or broken, it releases fibers into the air, which can be inhaled or ingested. Once in the body, these fibers can cause tumor growth, including pleural mesothelioma. Now that it has been recognized that military personnel have had substantial exposure to asbestos fibers, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has put a number of solutions in place to ensure that those who have been affected by asbestos-related illnesses receive a variety of benefits.
The VA’s chief mission is to ensure military veterans are aware of the benefits that are available to them, and to provide them with the necessary tools to apply for these. Unfortunately, the process of applying for these benefits can be very long and drawn out. Having some awareness of the three types of benefits that exist will help to speed up that process.
- Disability Compensation – The first type of compensation that is available is disability compensation. This is provided to those who have sustained an injury connected to their service. Pleural mesothelioma is considered as an injury that is service connected, although Vietnam vets do have to prove that they were exposed. Usually, compensation for someone with mesothelioma starts at $2,800 per month, although it does depend on the number of dependents the veteran has, and how severe their disability is.
- Dependency and Indemnity Compensation – Next, there is dependency and indemnity compensation. This is offered to the survivors of veterans who died because of a service-related injury or disease. They are entitled to a monthly payment, the value of which depends on whether or not they are house bound and if they have any children, and if so, how many.
- VA Health Benefits -Last but not least, there are the VA health benefits. This means that Vietnam vets are able to receive treatment in various centers across the country. There are more than 1,700 sites that they can go to, and some 8.7 million vets are treated here each year.
Are You Eligible?
If you have been discharged or released from the military under a condition that is not dishonorable, then you are classed as a ‘veteran’. To be a Vietnam veteran, you must have served during the Vietnam War and have had at least one tour there. A number of other criteria are also of importance to determine eligibility and these include:
- How long you served
- Whether the asbestos exposure is considered as service-connected
- What your income level is
- How many dependents you have
- What VA resources are available to you
- Proof of diagnosis of mesothelioma
The key is that you must be able to demonstrate that your asbestos exposure happened during your time in the military and therefore could not have been avoided. This can be achieved through a document provided by an accredited physician. In this document, they should state there is in fact a mesothelioma diagnosis and that asbestos exposure during military service caused the illness.
Commonality of Mesothelioma in Vietnam Veterans
Anyone who served in the U.S. military before 1980 is potentially at risk of developing asbestos-related illnesses. It was used in all areas of the military and it is believed that millions of veterans were exposed. Those with the highest level of exposure are believed to be the U.S. Navy.
- Navy – The U.S. Navy had the most potential to cause asbestos exposure. Most of the Navy ships constructed until the middle of the 20th century, used asbestos from bow to stern. In fact, at least 300 different asbestos-containing materials were used in Navy ships. The areas with asbestos included the boilers, bedding materials, paneling, grinders, gaskets, valves, deck covering materials, cables, thermal materials, packing materials, millboards, adhesives, insulation, and pie covering. The highest risk of exposure was found in those who repaired any of these elements.
- Marine Corps – Asbestos was also extensively used in the U.S. Marine Corps, where men served both on land and at sea. The sleeping quarters, including piping and bedding, contained asbestos. All Marine Corps buildings were built and repaired using asbestos products, from floor to ceiling. Additionally, their land vehicles used them, and Marines spent a lot of time in those vehicles, which was when their chance of exposure was at its highest.
- Air Force – Those in the U.S. Air Force repaired and operated aircraft, many of which had asbestos in many of their parts. Anyone who worked on repairing planes were at risk of being exposed to asbestos. Additionally, many of the Air Force bases had buildings constructed with asbestos materials. Asbestos was found in joint compounds, tapes, adhesives, paints, and insulated pipes. Some of the bases were found to have particularly high levels of asbestos, including Arizona’s Williams AFB, Oklahoma’s Tinker AFB, South Dakota’s Ellsworth AFB, and Colorado’s Lowry AFB and Buckely AFB. Chanute Air Force Base currently still has high levels of asbestos.
- Army – Lastly, there is the U.S. Army, where asbestos was used to insulate many barracks and other buildings. This means soldiers slept and lived surrounded by asbestos fibers, often for many years. Whenever any type of repair was made to these buildings, the asbestos would get disturbed, leading to particles becoming airborne. The Army’s vehicles, including support vehicles, tanks, and helicopters, had very high levels of asbestos in them, including on the valves, gaskets, and breaks. The mess halls were constructed using materials that contained asbestos, and so were the barracks. Furthermore, Army personnel frequently had to help with the demolition of these types of buildings, where the asbestos would get disturbed.
Why Place Soldiers at Risk?
The fact that asbestos is dangerous is nothing new. However, it seems as if manufacturers and other businesses have been burying their heads in the sand for many years, not taking any steps towards eliminating the use of asbestos in their products. During the Vietnam War, asbestos was considered to be a miracle mineral and was therefore used in the construction of just about everything. It was versatile and affordable, which meant that it was perfect for the military to use. Unfortunately, the military personnel were placed in the unenviable position of possibly developing various asbestos-related illnesses, although the VA is offering a number of solutions to those who have indeed been diagnosed of having asbestos-related illnesses. | <urn:uuid:0a4d1783-3995-44b6-a1f0-cfea696768bb> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://mesotheliomatreatmentcenters.org/veterans/vietnam-vets-mesothelioma/ | 2021-02-27T16:19:32Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178358976.37/warc/CC-MAIN-20210227144626-20210227174626-00317.warc.gz | en | 0.980354 | 1,509 | [

Replica Hermione passes original's final resting place
Original frigate ran aground off the coast near Le Croisic, Loire Atlantique, on September 20, 1793.
The Hermione, the replica of the ship that carried Marquis La Fayette to help America during the War of Independence in 1780, will be in Nantes from May 23 to 28 - not far from the final resting place of the original vessel.
The original Hermione, a 12-pounder Concorde-class frigate, ran aground off the coast near Le Croisic, Loire Atlantique, on September 20, 1793.
She was travelling from the Loire estuary - where the vessel had been stationed for three months - to Brest escorting 12 ships, including two vessels filled with 65 guns.
The ship's commanding officer Captain Pierre Martin ordered the pilot Guillaume Guillemin du Conquet to take the most direct route to Brest. At 18h30 on September 20, Hermione ran aground at the Plateau du Four, a rocky outcrop four nautical miles off the French coast.
The vessel was evacuated the following morning. At court martial du Conquet was declared responsible for the loss of the ship, while Captain Martin was honorably acquitted. In November that year, Martin was promoted to contre-amiral and was given chief command of the Toulon squadron in early 1794.
He returned to the Atlantic coast when he was put in charge of forces at Rochefort, where the replica Hermione is usually berthed. He was made préfet maritime when the charge was founded in 1801, and remained in that post until 1809.
An archaeological excavation campaign undertaken in the summer of 2005 resulted in the recovery of several objects, including part of Hermione's rudder, and part of the anchor.

Even though their existing u-shaped configuration worked for their space, the couple decided to change their layout. “We planned for an L-shaped design with an island for better accessibility from each end of the room”, James said.
They had an idea of how they wanted their new kitchen to look and used the 3D kaboodle planner to create a few design concepts. This helped the couple visualise what their new kitchen would look like.
“We were so happy to ditch the existing green colour scheme for a more contemporary palette and were drawn to kaboodle’s luminess metallic and nougat truffle doors to create a two-tone look. The calcutta gloss laminate benchtop tied in amazingly with these two colours too”, Lucy said.
“I liked the combination of using discreet grip handles for our base cabinets and push to open hardware for our wall cabinets”, James said.
“The whole building process was really simple and Lucy even picked up a drill and gave me a hand.”
James had no trouble with assembling the kitchen because he’s worked on similar projects before but he did have an off moment when it came to ripping out the old kitchen. “He got a bit carried away and somehow the old benchtop found itself through our window… “, Lucy said.

PICTURE THIS: Russian Circles + KEN mode + Helms Alee @ El Rey Theatre, LA 3/10/14
Satan commandeering Godspeed You! Black Emperor would be an apt way to describe Russian Circles‘ punishing post-rock sound. The combined hardcore noise of KEN mode and Helms Alee helped get the El Rey crowd in the head banging mood for Russian Circles’ monster set, which included new music from their new album, Memorial. Chelsea Wolfe also made a guest appearance during the encore to sing the title track off the new album.

Install Nginx on Debian/ Ubuntu
Category : How-to
Installing Nginx on Debian or Ubuntu is as easy as a single apt-get command, however it does not install the latest version of Nginx. In fact, the latest stable Nginx version is 1.8 and the latest package in Debian’s standard repository is 1.2
To get the latest stable version we need to add a new source to our package manager. Before doing so, add the Nginx PGP key which is used to sign all packages. Run the below commands to download the key from Nginx.com, add it to our package manager and clean up the local downloaded file.
wget http://nginx.org/keys/nginx_signing.key apt-key add nginx_signing.key rm nginx_signing.key
We can now create the new source file with the Nginx repository location.
Add one of the following depending on your Linux distribution. You will need to change wheezy or trusty to the codename of your distribution version.
deb http://nginx.org/packages/debian/ wheezy nginx deb-src http://nginx.org/packages/debian/ wheezy nginx
deb http://nginx.org/packages/ubuntu/ trusty nginx deb-src http://nginx.org/packages/ubuntu/ trusty nginx
Finally, update your local repository cache and install Nginx.
apt-get update apt-get install nginx
Run -v on nginx and you should see something like version 1.8.0.
nginx -v nginx version: nginx/1.8.0 | <urn:uuid:2122737a-f8ab-47bd-a609-bb7748bd3f1f> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://www.jamescoyle.net/how-to/1678-install-nginx-on-debian-ubuntu | 2021-03-01T05:03:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178361849.27/warc/CC-MAIN-20210301030155-20210301060155-00637.warc.gz | en | 0.742314 | 358 | [

Prosecutor, Cumberland County (NJ) Prosecutor's Office
Jennifer Webb-McRae has been a member of Fight Crime: Invest in Kids since 2016. In January of 2010, Webb-McRae was nominated by Governor Jon S. Corzine to be the first African American, first female Prosecutor of Cumberland County. Previously, she was an Assistant Deputy Public Defender for the State of New Jersey for six years, served as Child Support Attorney for the Cumberland County Welfare Board, and worked in private practice.
Prosecutor Webb-McRae says that while prosecuting crimes and keeping Cumberland County residents safe is her primary responsibility, helping people make positive choices is equally important. She oversaw the creation of an Anti-Bullying educational curriculum and hosted a Youth Outreach Symposium. Webb-McRae is a native of Vineland, New Jersey. | <urn:uuid:76327384-5de1-4f45-8a35-b6fbb880bae7> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://www.strongnation.org/people/jennifer-webb-mcrae | 2021-03-01T03:31:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178361849.27/warc/CC-MAIN-20210301030155-20210301060155-00637.warc.gz | en | 0.969466 | 176 | [

Having a baby is hard fucking work. Sometimes they can be hard to make. Sometimes they’re TOO easy to make (I’d like to throw a shout-out to wine for sponsoring my children). And once they are inside you they have the ability to make you beg for an epidural after twenty weeks of carrying them. They make you piss yourself, they give you bacne, they make you so tired you think you might die, they make you hornier than a 12-year-old boy and they make you almost blow up the Google search engine with questions you NEVER thought you’d ask. (Eg: How can I find my own cervix? And once I’ve found it, how can I insert a vice out of my husbands tool shed to open it the hell up so I can pull my own baby out?).
Of course there are unicorns who walk around barely noticing that they’re a walking, talking human incubator, but we hate them. Most of us need wheelchairs and a 24/7 on-call psychologist to survive pregnancy. Eventually we stick our arm up our hoo-hah with an eviction notice that says, “Just pick a hole, and get the hell out”. Sometimes they will listen, most of the time they will give you the finger and continue their 2am dance parties. BUT they come out! Eventually! I mean they hardly just ‘come out’. Birth is what I imagine an exorcism to look like. Screaming, swearing, vomiting and begging for drugs until the thing that has been sucking the life out of you finally exits you dramatically.
As I said, having a baby is hard work. Which is why you need to look after yourself once you’ve made it to the other side. I first heard about placenta encapsulation from a friend when I was pregnant with my first child. Her first baby had recently exited her and she could NOT stop raving about how good the tablets made her feel. She told me all about the Blue’s Day thing and the Crying About 2975392 Times A Minute For No Reason thing that comes with becoming the proud new owner of a human being. And she SWORE that the tablets made a huge difference in this massive transition. And I believed her! I’d seen Kimmy K barbecue a placenta off eBay for it’s health benefits so I knew that there must be something to the whole ‘placenta eating thing’.
I figured that it’s good enough for Kim Kardashian it’s good enough for me! Plus we’re pretty much the only mammal that doesn’t back up childbirth with a placenta eating sesh, so if you don’t take every word the Kardashians say as Bible then you can at least trust the animals who don’t have access to the Internet. They KNOW how much good shit is in our placentas! They know that it’s our damn right to eat the sonuvabitch that has been sucking the life out of us for ten months.
And I get it, eating a placenta sounds a bit fucked (and borderline cannibalistic), which is what makes the encapsulation process all the more amazing! All you have to do is birth the damn thing and make sure to let your midwife know that your placenta needs to be placed in a bucket of ice (AKA: Placenta On The Rocks). Natalie from Placenta Vitality’s spidey senses then begin to tingle (kidding, you text her like a normal person) and she comes and picks up your placenta as ASAP as she possibly can.
You then forget all about it because you are still deep in shock about the new human in your arms, plus you have the impending trauma of shitting for the first time post-birth. Natalie does all of her witchy business on your placenta (which by the way, is surprisingly massive) and turns it into cute little purple tablets that taste like berries. Hurrah! By the time you’re home with your new bundle of joy you are equipped with your jar of placenta tablets, ready to tackle Motherhood like a boss!
I’ve had my placenta magically transformed into tablets twice now and I couldn’t recommend it highly enough! Natalie makes the process insanely easy, because she understands that a new Mum has a bit going on and doesn’t have time to be Google-ing placenta smoothie recipes. As I said, having a baby is hard work on our bodies. So it is INCREDIBLY important to do everything you can to replenish it and placenta encapsulation is an amazing way to do that.
(This is an article I wrote for the Sunshine Coast Baby Magazine…but with more swear words.)
If you want to get your placenta encapsulated and live on the Sunshine Coast you can check out Natalie’s website at https://www.placentavitality.c...
If you want to get it encapsulated but DON’T live on the Sunshine Coast, then I don’t know anybody. I’m sorry. How anticlimactic. | <urn:uuid:e12c0bc5-c1c8-4338-a8f5-5cbd43231074> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://www.womanbyabbyrose.com.au/blog/why-i-ate-my-placenta | 2021-03-01T04:14:44Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178361849.27/warc/CC-MAIN-20210301030155-20210301060155-00637.warc.gz | en | 0.951732 | 1,102 | [

A popular app has been removed from the Google Play Store after discovering that it distributed Trojan malware on Android phones to millions of users via an update.
Until recently, Barcode Scanner was a simple app that provides users with a basic QR code reader and barcode generator, which is useful for things like making purchases and redeeming discounts. The app, which has been around since at least 2017, is owned by developer Lavabird Ldt. , And it claims to have over 10 million downloads, as shown Wayback Machine.
Recently, however, a malicious activity log has been traced back to the app. Users began to notice that something strange was going on with their phones: their default browsers were getting hacked and redirected to random ads, apparently out of nowhere. For many people, it was not clear what caused the outage, as not many have downloaded any apps recently. After enough angry victims wrote about their experiences on a web forum, one user finally referred to the barcode as the culprit.
Malwarebytes researchers verified that a scanner was the culprit, and posted the New report This indicates that this application has introduced malware to serve ads on users’ phones, most likely by updating the application last December. The researchers said the update corrupted the previously harmless application, moving it from an “innocent scanner to an application full of malware”.
The researchers were able to distinguish the ad malware present in the barcode from the basic ad SDKs (programs user By publishers to launch ads within the app for monetization purposes). In the case of a barcode scanner, they are two completely different things. The researchers say that whoever injected the malicious code was able to hide its existence, adding that the app appears to have been intentionally switched from a normal application to a malicious application with malware through the update. According to the analysis:
It’s terrifying that with an update the app can become malicious as it goes unnoticed by Google Play Protect. We are confused that an app developer with a popular app can turn it into malware. Was this the plan from the start, to have an idle app, waiting for the attack after it hits popularity? I guess we’ll never know.
While Google has removed Barcode Scanner from its app store, it has not disappeared from the affected devices. Users of the application have to uninstall it manually from their phones.
The owner of Barcode Scanner, Lavabird Ltd. is registered. , At an address in London, according to Records Available online. The director of the company, Dmytro Kizima, resides in Ukraine. | <urn:uuid:f4fb643c-1899-4aea-bfac-711a84a30634> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://thedailyguardian.net/uninstall-this-android-barcode-app-with-malware/ | 2021-03-02T20:42:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178364764.57/warc/CC-MAIN-20210302190916-20210302220916-00317.warc.gz | en | 0.967521 | 530 | [

Still no new theme up yet! I was having some issues with a few items displaying the way I want, so more work needs done on the new theme. The biggest reason for delays are other projects taking up my time (and a bit of vacation here and there).

By Gary Walker
No other political body in California wields as much power with as little oversight as the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors.
The board’s five members represent 10 million people and control a county budget of more than $26 billion, including $3.4 million for each member’s office staff and discretionary spending, according to county reports. They oversee county health, public works, fire and sheriff’s departments as well as the foster care and juvenile probation systems, control residential and commercial development in unincorporated areas and sit on the MTA board.
For the first time since term limits were set for the office in 2002, supervisors are terming out of what used to be regarded as a lifelong job.
Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky, whose third district includes Venice and Santa Monica, must leave office in November after 12 years on the board.
Now eight hopefuls are vying to take over the seat — and the $181,292 annual salary that goes with it — in the June 3 primary election.
Six of them have confirmed their attendance on Monday at a candidates forum sponsored by The Argonaut.
For most observers, the contest boils down to a horserace between two well-known Santa Monica politicians with the ability to raise significant campaign war chests — former state Sen. Sheila Kuehl and former Santa Monica City Councilman Bobby Shriver, nephew of President John F. Kennedy.
Kuehl, 73, had raised about $630,000 for the race as of March 17, the most recent campaign finance report available.
Shriver, who turns 60 this week, raised about $547,000 and kicked in an additional $300,000 of his own money.
The two other candidates with legislative experience are West Hollywood City Councilman John Duran, a civil rights lawyer who bills himself a “fiscal moderate,” and former Malibu Mayor Pamela Conley Ulich, also an attorney.
Duran has raised $44,000 and Conley Ulich has taken in $2,000.
Other candidates have not reported significant fundraising and include: Los Angeles resident Yuval Kremer, a tutor; North Hollywood resident Rudy Melendez, a Hollywood lighting technician; Eric Preven, a former television producer; and environmental activist Douglas Fay of Santa Monica.
Conley Ulich, 47, has denounced the role of money in politics and says she is using social media to offset the financial advantage that Kuehl, Shriver and even Duran have on her.
Fay recognizes that his chances of winning are slim to none.
“It’s going to take a miracle,” he said. “It’s a long shot because I don’t have the money that candidates like Shelia Kuehl and Bobby Shriver do.”
Despite its importance, debate surrounding the race has so far been relatively tame, though Kuehl and Shriver have traded barbs about the financing of their campaigns.
Shriver, who has worked as an attorney, journalist and film producer, has rejected voluntary campaign spending limits. The decision limits donations directly to his campaign but not to independent expenditure committees, which are prohibited from coordinating directly with candidates.
Kuehl has made Shriver’s ability to fund his own candidacy a talking point throughout the campaign.
“It’s very difficult to run against a person who can self-finance,” she said.
Shriver did not return calls for this story, but previously complained on radio that “I haven’t had the long-term name recognition that some others have had,” presumably referring to Kuehl.
Kuehl was a member of the California Legislature for 14 years, where she represented Santa Monica, Malibu and a western portion of the San Fernando Valley.
Shriver’s donor list, however, includes high-profile entertainment figures such as film directors Jerry Bruckheimer and Rob Reiner, billionaire philanthropist Eli Broad, Facebook CEO Sheryl Sandberg and former Playa Vista Capital President Steve Soboroff.
Kuehl’s donors include attorneys, public employee unions and environmental organizations. A former child actress in the 1960s, Kuehl has also received contributions from the film industry.
Allan Hoffenblum, a Los Angeles-based political consultant, said the ability to self-finance is a part of the political process and in some cases a necessary component of political campaigns.
“Without money, you’re mute,” said Hoffenblum, a former Republican consultant who publishes the California Target Book, a nonpartisan political guidebook of state politics. “I think most people prefer that a candidate use their own money to money that comes from special interest groups.”
Then again, there’s the Meg Whitman effect. Whitman spent millions of her own money on the 2010 California gubernatorial campaign but was trounced at the polls by Gov. Jerry Brown.
“In California, people are much more discerning than in other states,” Kuehl said.
While it appears she is being outspent by Shriver, Kuehl said she is making up the difference by communicating face-to-face with voters.
“It means that you have to work a little harder to get your message out and it puts you in direct contact with more voters,” Kuehl said.
With competitive races for Congress, state Senate and state Assembly happening concurrently on the Westside, Hoffenblum said it appears Westside voters could have a larger say in the election of Yaroslavsky’s replacement than other parts of the district.
“I think the Westside could have much more of an impact than, say, the [San Fernando] Valley,” he said. “There does seem to be more interest in the Westside races.”
The Argonaut’s L.A. County Board of Supervisors Third District Candidates Forum takes place from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Monday at the Mar Vista Middle School Auditorium, 2224 Walgrove Ave., Mar Vista.

Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment. -Buddha

“The best way to predict the future is to create it.”
“As you think, so shall you become.”
It feels like there are wet tracks everywhere today in Australia. That will necessary limit my involvement in horse racing betting today.
That said, I have had a close look at the feature race from Randwick today, the Group 2 Warwick Stakes.
Given the track conditions I can not go past the Chris Waller trained mud lark Weary. To me this race, on a heavy track is made for this horse.
Best Bet: Sydney, Race 6, Number 8, Weary
This bet will be me only investment today.

The Board of Directors of Mid-America Arts Alliance (M-AAA), in a unanimous vote, has elected Holbrook Lawson of Tulsa, Oklahoma, as Chair-elect.

The Board of Directors includes members from all six M-AAA states: Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Texas.

Her term as Board Chair is four years. She will be pivotal in implementing M-AAA’s new five-year strategic plan that will include FY22 when M-AAA will mark its fiftieth anniversary.
About her appointment, Lawson said, “Mid-America Arts Alliance serves an important role in our region and delivers on its vision statement, More Art for More People. I recently led the Strategic Planning Committee on behalf of the Board of Directors. It was a collective process in imagining M-AAA’s future. It was a fascinating project that brought diverse perspectives together from a variety of stakeholders to assist in steering M-AAA’s next steps. I look forward to assisting in realizing this new inclusive plan as
M-AAA’s next Chair.”
Rich Vierk, M-AAA’s current Chair, said, “On behalf of M-AAA’s Board of Directors, I want to congratulate Holbrook Lawson on this appointment. I am so enthusiastic that Holbrook will be our first woman and first Indigenous Chair and brings us a strategic perspective that will lead us into the next important iterations of what Regional Arts Organizations will become.”

pot size per street in "hand details"
I fancy the "hand details" function but think it could be even better if pot size would be generated on each street, as some other trackers do.
An even better comprehension of the hand would be to add remaining stacks of remaining players on each street as well. For instant, here on the river, it is difficult to assume what are the pot size and stack sizes at first glance :
LOL, I had missed that number with no unit !
Thanks a lot for this information.
Just consider adding unit (€/BB) and remaining players stack sizes. | <urn:uuid:ed8ee8df-d148-4c76-ba3f-d3b4fedc0587> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | http://forum.hand2note.com/topic/2421/pot-size-per-street-in-hand-details | 2021-03-09T10:49:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178389798.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20210309092230-20210309122230-00317.warc.gz | en | 0.95408 | 127 | [

Slowly Slovakia (2001 – 2003), by a Slovak photographer Martin Marencin, is an extensive photo-essay depicting Slovakia of the early 2000s. Slowly Slovakia started off as a study of Slovak street advertising funded by a grant rom a national advertising agency. However, after one year it turned into a fully-fledged documentary project now split into six major sections – Advertising, MMI, Landscape, Red & White, People, and 2004.
Marencin wants us to see Slovakia full of paradoxes and contrasts, a country in transition where the old slowly disappears but the new appears equally slowly. It’s fascinating how Marencin really manages to convey that sense of absurdity thanks to the bold use of colour and composition. It’s an interesting and visually stunning body of work that certainly deserves more attention! | <urn:uuid:d637b582-b7d1-4532-ac27-c3e8112a9fcb> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://documenteast.com/2014/11/03/martin-marencin-slowly-slovakia-2001-2003/ | 2021-03-09T09:29:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178389798.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20210309092230-20210309122230-00317.warc.gz | en | 0.948794 | 170 | [

Answer me when I call, O God of my right! You gave me room when I was in distress. Be gracious to me, and hear my prayer.
How long, you people, shall my honor suffer shame? How long will you love vain words, and seek after lies?
But know that the Lord has set apart the faithful for himself; the Lord hears when I call to him.
When you are disturbed, do not sin; ponder it on your beds, and be silent.
Offer right sacrifices, and put your trust in the Lord.
There are many who say, “O that we might see some good! Let the light of your face shine on us, O Lord!”
You have put gladness in my heart more than when their grain and wine abound.
I will both lie down and sleep in peace; for you alone, O Lord, make me lie down in safety.
Food For Thought:
The line that stands out for me in this passage of Scripture is “Put your trust in the Lord.” What do you think that this line means? How do you place your trust in God? When have you been mistrustful of God? What made you feel that way?
God, you sent your Son into the world that we might live through him. May we abide in his risen life so that we may bear the fruit of love for one another and know the fullness of joy. Amen. | <urn:uuid:38dc9d17-368f-4526-bec1-f6ffa7971023> | CC-MAIN-2021-10 | https://fumcfw.org/april-14-2015/ | 2021-03-09T11:24:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-10/segments/1614178389798.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20210309092230-20210309122230-00317.warc.gz | en | 0.959097 | 300 | [

No Special Tools Required
You don't need any adhesives, tiles spacers or grout or to lay Decking Tiles. Everything you need for a quick and easy installation is included in each box.
Prepare the Surface
Interlocking Tiles can be placed on most hard surfaces. However, it's important that the surface is as smooth as possible, with no bumps, large cracks, uneven areas or surface depressions that would allow the Decking Tile
s to "rock" in place. If the surface is particularly uneven, you may need to level the surface with some patching compound or filler. We do not recommend the installation of Inter Locking Tile on bare ground.
Plan Your Design
It's easy to create unique patterns, designs and borders by using a combination of different tile styles. You can sketch your design on paper to try various design combinations. The possibilities are endless!
Lock the Tiles into Position
Start by placing an Interlocking Tile in the corner of the area that you want to cover, making sure the two sides of the tile with the tabs showing are facing outwards in the direction you will be laying the tiles. Place the edge of the next tile without the tabs showing over the black connecting tabs so these tabs lock into position with the corresponding slots on the underside of the second tile. Repeat this simple "lock in place" process with the remaining tiles, working in a diagonal direction across your entire design.
Completing Your Project
You can generally avoid cutting Interlocking Tiles where you need to fit around fixed objects, odd shaped areas or against walls simply by filling in the gaps or spaces with medium sized pebbles, volcanic rock or other landscaping material.

Happily, 2014 continues to bring stability in the federal estate, gift and generation skipping taxes. For decades these taxes have been used as a political football, bouncing up and then down as politicians used the tax to drum up votes…and their campaign funds…rather than address the tax in a reasonable manner. Finally, things seem to have fallen into place and we can make long-term plans for our clients without guesswork. Of course things can always change, but the politicians have moved onto other issues, and the taxes now effect so few people, the political will to make change has dissipated.
Under the current rules, the federal estate tax exemption protects the vast majority of families from paying any federal estate tax. And, because the federal estate tax exemption is adjusted, over the years inflation will not grow estates so they are subject to the tax. For now, only the most wealthy families are subject to the estate tax and the number of federal estate tax returns Form 706 filed continues to shrink. From 2003 to 2102 the number fell 87%.

The new SMU-Duke-NUS Medicine Pathway aims to groom future clinicians who can help mould the healthcare ecosystem with a multidisciplinary perspective.
Medical professionals are often academically exceptional, possess a deep sense of awe in discovering the human body, and find a sense of fulfilment in restoring health to those in need. However, physicians also play an integral role in the healthcare system, and need to grasp the structure and inner workings of that very system in order to make a meaningful impact.
While the practice of modern medicine is more rewarding than ever before with exciting breakthroughs in scientific and technological advancements, with new innovations also comes greater expectations.
Beyond expertise in medical science and the ability to communicate with patients, doctors need to pick up skills such as maximising care through technological tools, or navigating and shaping increasingly complex and digitalised healthcare systems to improve the quality of care for patients.
This is why the new SMU-Duke-NUS Medicine Pathway aims to groom future clinicians who can help mould the healthcare ecosystem with a multidisciplinary perspective. Students will pursue a four-year undergraduate programme at SMU in law, social sciences, business or computing, and gain a conditional admission to Duke-NUS’ four-year Doctor of Medicine (MD) programme.
Professor Timothy Clark, Provost of SMU says, “SMU is delighted to partner with Duke-NUS to offer this medicine pathway to our students who aspire to become doctors of a different kind – those who are not only trained in medicine, but also in their chosen undergraduate discipline.
Increasingly, societal challenges have become multi-dimensional, and solutions are often to be found at the intersections of different disciplines. We are confident that graduates of this pathway will be equipped with the skills.”
The changing face of healthcare
The organisation of healthcare provision has changed considerably over the past few decades. Factors such as rising healthcare costs, privatisation, public-private partnerships, emerging demographics trends such as ageing populations, and technological disruptions have all contributed to changes in the environment within which most healthcare systems around the world operate.
These changes have had significant implications for medical professionals. In the past, the division of labour in healthcare meant that medical professions were largely separate from managerial roles, but this is no longer the case. Such factors are also reshaping healthcare systems and services and these are having profound implications for the types of skills needed by doctors as well as those looking to take on other roles in healthcare.
The demand for people with hybrid skillsets – combining other competencies with medicine - is therefore on the rise. However, as a 2018 article “Medical School Students Getting the Business”, published in the American Association for Physician Leadership, suggests, the topics of healthcare financing, organisational management and process improvement are not usually covered in traditional medical school curricula even as “the need for physician leaders skilled in both clinical and business aspects is greater than ever.”
“Duke-NUS is excited to offer this new pathway, which gives undergraduates of diverse disciplines access to our innovative MD programme,” says Professor Thomas Coffman, Dean of Duke-NUS.
“Here, they can become adept at channelling their varied interests towards shaping the future of healthcare with precision and agility. This is what underscores our Clinicians First, Clinicians Plus distinction, where Duke-NUS clinicians get the opportunity of becoming leaders, innovators, educators and more.”
By producing clinicians with a solid understanding of the business and management of healthcare operations, the new SMU-Duke-NUS Medicine Pathway has been developed specifically to address the emerging demand for healthcare leaders with these hybrid skills.
A pathway to success
At the undergraduate stage students will pursue a four-year undergraduate programme at SMU and will also be mentored and participate in Duke-NUS enrichment activities in preparation for (conditional) admission to the Duke-NUS Doctor of Medicine (MD) programme.
Students accepted on the Pathway will pursue the courses required for their selected SMU programme as well as the Core Curriculum, which comprises 12 courses curated to nurture well-rounded and adaptive graduates. The courses stem from key pillars such as Numeracy, Writing and Reasoning, Modes of Thinking and an internship.
Furthermore, students are encouraged to take a second major in Health Economics and Management (HEM) and have the opportunity to participate in a six-month healthcare sector internship via the HEM Work-Study Elective.
Over at Duke-NUS, students will be mentored and involved in enrichment activities to prepare them for the MD programme, while still pursuing their undergraduate studies at SMU. A pre-medical course will provide students with the foundational knowledge, skills and attitudes to help them excel in their clinical and scientific training. Duke-NUS has designed a summer programme to provide insights into graduate entry medicine, roles of medical professionals and medical practice in Singapore. A shadowing programme pairs students with a Duke-NUS faculty and practising doctor who can provide insights into the medical profession; as well as medical specialities workshops, advising sessions with Duke-NUS faculty, and community projects. SMU students will also have the opportunity to observe how Duke-NUS students and faculty train within the SingHealth Duke-NUS Academic Medical Centre (AMC), and how this infrastructure allows the development of outstanding clinical education and research collaborations that translate to better outcomes for patients.
Students who complete the pathway will graduate with a Bachelor degree from SMU, and a Doctor of Medicine degree from Duke-NUS.
Maxine Hong, a first-year student at SMU School of Law who has been accepted by the SMU-Duke-NUS Medicine Pathway, suggests that an understanding of the relationship between law and medicine “is crucial to building a healthcare ecosystem of the future that is able to meet the evolving needs of society.”
“SMU’s holistic education and unique pedagogy would enable me to approach problems with fresh lenses, potentially discovering new and better solutions,” adds Maxine.
“This pathway presents a valuable opportunity for me to pursue my interests in both fields, and will equip me with the knowledge, soft people skills and a deeper appreciation to tackle the challenges of today and tomorrow.”
Geraldine Lee, a first-year student at SMU School of Information Systems who has also been accepted by the SMU-Duke-NUS Medicine Pathway says: “Technology permeates every aspect of our society, and contributes significantly to the advancement of medicine.
With SMU’s holistic education to nurture enterprising individuals who are equipped with deep knowledge in selected domains and possess a passion to give back to society, as well as Duke-NUS’ innovative curriculum, I look forward to blending and assimilating my knowledge in Computing and Medicine to contribute meaningfully to society.” | <urn:uuid:3659c69c-2db2-43e1-9f0c-8bd3ebd31fa2> | CC-MAIN-2022-40 | https://engage.smu.edu.sg/developing-leaders-healthcare | 2022-09-24T15:45:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-40/segments/1664030331677.90/warc/CC-MAIN-20220924151538-20220924181538-00677.warc.gz | en | 0.953535 | 1,429 | [

Access to preliminary research reports, application
forms, and cost/benefit analyses of ISPA financed projects
Environmental Association For the Earth vs. The Ministry
First Instance—administrative court case No. 1621/2004,
Sofia City Court, Panel ˛˛˛-v
The environmental Association For the Earth submitted a written request
to the Ministry of Finance (MF), demanding access to copies of the following
documents—preliminary research reports, application forms, cost and benefit
analyses of two ISPA financed projects – Highway Lulin, and the Regional
Depot for common, construction and dangerous wastes in the town of Russe.
In a response to the request, the MF issues a decision for partial access
to the requested documents—the preliminary research reports of the two
projects. The rest of the requested information has been refused.
The decision of the MF, in its part that denies access to the requested
information, has been challenged before the court with the argument that
no grounds have been given for the refusal.
Development at the First Instance:
In 2005, three court sessions have been held and three times the proceedings
