Over six years ago I formed a Job Club that has helped members of the community find employment. Residents advise me of job openings in their place of work and I share the job opportunities with those who subscribe to a jobs e list at least weekly-- sometimes a few times a week. If we hear of job opportunities from non residents, these job opportunities are also sent to those who subscribe to the list. If you are out of work and want to have your name added to the jobs e list please let me know. Over 200 people have found jobs through this effort-probably more!
During the summer months I have been working with the Greenburgh School district to create a new Greenburgh Technology initiative at Woodlands High School. Our goal is to create a program that gives students a demanding course of study that prepares them for 21st Century careers especially in high-wage, high-demand positions including computer coding and programming, application development, network management and data analysis. We are in the process of finalizing details.
Another job creation initiative: The town and Greenburgh School district started an innovative architectural mentoring program, working with respected local Architects. Students are eligible to receive $10,000 scholarships upon competition of the program. The program started in January - with the first group of Woodlands students completing the first architect/mentoring program last June. The goal: to give students a head start on becoming architects/engineers.
A third job-training program is also in the planning stages: training hard-core unemployed to become painters. This initiative - a joint private/public partnership with the Theodore Young Community Center.
Our barber in training program -started last year at the Theodore Young Community Center has been successful in helping unemployed find employment. The barber in training program has been profiled nationally - in the Wall Street Journal, in USA TODAY and in many other media outlets.
Finally, we're working with bio tech companies like Regeneron and Acorda - making Greenburgh the bio tech capital of the Hudson Valley. The recently released third draft of the Comprehensive Plan which Councilman Francis Sheehan has been chairing, is identifying initiatives that will help us sound job creating businesses to our town. | 2019-04-23T16:47:32 | http://www.greenburghny.com/Cit-e-Access/news/archnews.cfm?NID=38552&TID=10&jump2=0 |
hi everyone, new to the fourm. having some issues trying to remove the apron, the only thing holding me back now is the feed box underneath hitting the end block for the lead screw and feed screw. any suggestions around this ?
just ended up splitting the apron.
Which way are you trying to remove it?
When I dismantled my L5 to move it (it was the only way available), I removed the leadscrew and feed-shaft completely, chocked the underside of the apron with blocks of wood then separated the apron from the saddle by removing the Allen screws that hold it up.
There also a couple of dowels in there so be sure to lower it and refit it vertically.
Obviously, take the leadscrew especially out carefully and slowly, with as much support as you can give it, so you don't bruise its and the half-nut's threads against each other. | 2019-04-26T07:36:40 | https://www.model-engineer.co.uk/forums/postings.asp?th=141369 |

Remote and spectacular, the icy peaks and vast Glaciers of the Karakoram offer unparalleled opportunities for adventurous trekking. The 62km long Baltoro Glacier is Pakistan’s number one trekking destination. Seven of the world’s twenty-five highest peaks rise above this glacier, while the lower reaches are surrounded by some of the world’s highest granite walls and spires.
This challenging trek gives great views of four 8,000m peaks (K2, Broad Peak and Gasherbrum I & II) and is thought by many to be one of the best high mountain treks in the world. Some of the wildest and most dramatic landscapes on earth are found in the vast, rugged Karakoram Range situated in Northern Pakistan. The Baltoro Glacier meets the Vigne and Godwin-Austen glaciers at the huge natural amphitheatre of Concordia. This is one of the most spectacular mountain campsites in the world. The huge pyramid of K2 only 10km distant dominates the view and creates a very special atmosphere. Our programme allows three days in the upper reaches of the Baltoro Glacier to savour the majesty of this unique place. The highest point reached on this trek is the 5,650m summit of the Gondogoro La. This is a challenging and technical route, which links the high glacial basin of the upper Baltoro with the green Hushe Valley to the south. The view from the summit is one of the most overwhelming mountain panoramas in the world, with four of the Karakoram 8,000m peaks close at hand. Our itinerary combines all that is best in the Karakoram: a visit to K2 Base camp, a challenging ascent of a high pass, and the chance to experience two very different valleys. This trek offers variety and excitement. It is an unforgettable mountain experience. | 2019-04-23T01:01:49 | http://x-ploregroup.com/holiday/baltoro-k2-base-camp-trekking/ |

Is Apple Playing Games with iTunes Rentals?
Last night, my friends decided to rent Superbad since some of them had not seen the movie already. They looked for it on Comcast OnDemand but it was no longer available. I knew I’d rented it in HD from the AppleTV store, cheaper than Comcast, so we looked there as well. I was surprised to find that Apple now only has Superbad for sale at $14.99 and no HD version.
Where is the rental version of this movie? Why has it suddenly disappeared? The AppleTV was even kind enough to remind me I’d already rented this movie when I tried to buy it.
I wonder what’s going on here… is Apple carrying out some kind of experiment? Do you know of any other movies removed from the rental pool?
Chime in with your comment. We’re now using the Disqus system for your convenience.
I noticed this, too. It's not what I expected after watching the announcement that Steve Jobs made (at either WWDC or MacWorld, I can't remember which). They need to stay consistent or customers will become frustrated. I'd bet it has something to do with the studios, though. After all, why would Apple want to *remove* content from its store? They would want to add more and more content to attract more customers, make more money, get more users on board with using Apple products, etc.
when is commin'out? Why has it suddenly disappeared? The AppleTV was even kind enough to remind me I’d already rented this movie when I tried to buy it.
yes you are right?Apple on Tuesday also added games for purchase from iTunes. Playable only on fifth-generation iPods, and not playable in iTunes, the titles available for US$4.99 each are Tetris, Mahjong, Mini Golf, Pac-Mac, Cubis 2, Bejeweled, Zuma, Texas Hold 'em, and Vortex. The last two were developed by Apple, while the others were adapted for the iPod by their original publishers. | 2019-04-26T03:52:29 | http://red66.com/2008/05/is-apple-playing-games-with-itunes-rentals/ |
. I invested in this navy linen blazer and hand-woven fedora to help me deal with summers in the South. Neither were cheap, but thanks to solid construction, I should be able to wear for a couple decades.
As someone that likes (well, tries) to look stylish, but also is concerned about the negative effects of consumerism, I have an inconsistent and contradictory interest in fashion.
I'm often impressed by the creativity from designers like the late Alexander McQueen and I enjoy street fashion photography as a hobby, but I also know that the industry helps generate an unsustainable cycle of planned obsolescence and contributes to a great deal of wasted money and resources.
I recently attended New York's Lincoln Center for the Mercedes Benz Fashion Week where I saw some great leading edge fashion -- a lot of it very interesting, beautiful and creative -- but I was more interested in spotting the classic looks that demonstrated how I prefer to dress.
Below are some photos I took using Instagram and my notes on what there is to like (or dislike) about the clothes from a sustainable fashion point of view.
. Note: It's entirely possible that this oversized Darth Vader helmet will be the "it" thing for Spring 2013, but in my professional opinion, I think this is a trend to pass on. As great as it looks, it just won't last.
Fashion Week is held in cities around the world in the Fall and Spring to display the new styles designers and brands want you to buy. Media swarm these events to tell consumers what's going to "be in" next season. It goes without saying, but this system of changing your style or wardrobe every season to fit what the designers want to sell isn't really sustainable. But there's a better way!
This is Catt Sadler and I have to say I think she's beautiful and looks great here. But, since we're talking about sustainable fashion, I thought these pants were a good example of something that you may want to avoid. Bold patterns and prints can be great, but they go out of style quickly. The black tank top on the other hand is something a woman could probably use for many seasons in a variety of ways.
Like everyone on our team, I care about the environment and make a lot of conscious decisions to reduce my impact in life, but none of us are perfect and when it comes to clothes, I haven't always been leading a good example. We all probably have or have had items in our wardrobe that we never wear and wonder, "why did we buy that?" Well, that has happened to me a lot over the years.
In the past few years, I've donated to Goodwill boxes and boxes of printed t-shirts, embarassingly patterned dress shirts, cheap, ugly ties and pants that were way too baggy for my body type. When I became more informed about the environmental impact of consumerism, I began analyzing these bad habits to understand my purchasing mistakes. Everything I ended up not wearing and getting rid of was purchased either on impulse, to fit a fleeting trend, or because it was so inexpensive. And all of these items were purchased without consideration of the impact on the environment.
. This guy was a little snazzier than I like to dress, but he looked sharp, demonstrating that a blue suit with black shoes is always in style.
In the past couple years I've also started learning about clothes from sites like PutThisOn, which bills itself as a site for "learning to dress like a grownup." Check out their right-hand rail where they list some helpful guides on how to find quality shoes, how to tell a good suit from a cheap suit, what basic pieces a guy should have in their wardrobe and so on. I think learning to spot quality was an important step in learning to shop sustainably.
First, do I really need it?
Second, am I sure I really need it?
Third, do I need it right now?
Is it high-quality and built-to-last?
Is it a classic piece that will remain in style for many years?
Is this an heirloom piece? Could I pass it down?
And, of course, I will consider the origin of the materials and the circumstances under which it was manufactured.
. This is Dandy Wellington.
While Dandy Wellington has taken on a persona to fit his sense of style, with so much of it depending on vintage pieces, you could argue this is one of the more sustainable ways to dress. While you may not want to go so decidedly retro, the lesson here is to spend money on a good suit. Wear it forever.
Sometimes sustainable fashion just means using what you have. If they fit, vintage beat up jeans almost always look good. Suede shoes are a good investment, because they last forever if you take care of them. And a nice leather portfolio or briefcase is another item that you can either find in a thrift store or invest in and pass it down to your son.
I liked this look because it just looks so damn smart. As I commented on Instagram, "if I ever need to rescue a kidnapped heiress, track down stolen historical artifacts or travel in time to solve a murder mystery, I want him on my team."
One way I like to think about these types of looks was if they are "time machine-ready." If you're wanting to buy clothing that will look good through a number of seasons, you should think like this. Could you jump in a racing Delorean and look okay wherever you ended up? If you swap in a white shirt, this is time machine ready.
When you break down this look, it's really just a good pair of jeans, a shirt, boots and a vest. Oh, and a good hat. That's not much. But investing in high-quality (or vintage) for these pieces will give you pieces that can be used in a number of ways for a number of years. And never go out of style.
Again, like a good hat, a good vest is a good long-term investment. You can wear it in a number of ways and it will last a long time.
This was solidly retro, but still time machine-ready. The idea here is he could wear this 50, 60, 80 years ago or that far into the future and probably look okay.
Another way one can dress is to establish a personal "uniform." I was fortunate enough to spot the legendary photographer Bill Cunningham. Cunningham is always wearing the same blue jacket. It has helped create his legendary status, but it has also saved him a lot of money and time not wasted deciding what to wear.
How do you balance your concern for the environment with your sense of style? Share any tips you have in the comments! | 2019-04-21T22:44:48 | https://www.treehugger.com/sustainable-fashion/classic-style-or-seasonal-trends-viewing-new-york-fashion-week-through-sustainable-lens.html |

DAVIS (AP) — A small group of University of California students have taken over a vacant building on the Davis campus.
UC Davis spokeswoman Claudia Morain says the protesters entered the two-story building after a noon rally Tuesday and were still there Wednesday.
Morain says the small building was recently the home of the Cross Cultural Center and will soon house some student affairs programs.
Campus officials say they are monitoring the situation to ensure campus safety and minimize disruption to student services.
Student Artem Rafkin told The Sacramento Bee says the protesters plan to use the building as the center of operations for the campus Occupy movement.
UC Davis administrators have come under fire since school police pepper-sprayed student protesters during a crackdown on a campus Occupy camp in November. | 2019-04-19T16:52:35 | https://www.recordnet.com/article/20120125/A_NEWS/120129918 |

Tiny organisms could replace controversial live animal testing.
(ISNS) -- Mascara is a staple in many women's beauty routines, helping to give the eyes the coveted "pop." But before a new cosmetic hits the market, it must be tested to determine how much it could irritate the eyes it adorns. In the U.S., this can be done using traditional live animal testing methods, such as the Draize test, which involves applying mascara or other test chemicals to the eyes of albino rabbits.
However, over the last 20 years, scientific breakthroughs, new legislation and ethical concerns regarding live animal cosmetic testing have led to an increase in the development and validation of alternative tests. These range from testing cosmetic toxicity on the corneal layer of removed cow eyes, to cellular tests that detect and monitor cells’ pH levels after chemical exposure.
So far, no single test on animal tissue has been accepted as a complete replacement for the Draize test for all types of chemicals. But a new study conducted by scientists at the University of Liverpool in England suggests that utilizing very tiny model organisms – ciliated protozoa – may be a cheaper, reliable alternative to live mammal mascara testing.
David Montagnes, a protozoologist at the university’s Institute of Integrative Biology, and undergraduate student Hayley Thomason decided to use protozoa as model organisms for their research because of their ability to act as living detectors for environmental toxins.
For the study, Thomason chose six commercial mascara brands at random and painted thin layers of each onto microscope cover slips, which were placed in chambers filled with the protozoa. Thomason and Montagnes were able to examine the mascara’s potential toxicity by measuring the tiny organisms' growth rate.
They used two ciliates – so-called because of the hair-like structures on their exterior. One is the Paramecium caudatum, also known as the slipper ciliate because of its shape. The other is Blepharisma japonicum, nicknamed the eyelash ciliate for its long row of cilia. Both were chosen because of their large size, historic use as model organisms and genetic similarities to humans.
Because of the ciliates' size, Montagnes and Thomason were able to use a microscope to observe and measure the population growth, which varied according to the brand of mascara and the amount of mascara in the chamber. Some brands killed the protozoa, while others left them unscathed.
Montagnes said the study is a “proof of concept” – a cheap and easy way to test toxins and reveal differences between products.
“Are those differences related to something that’s going to affect humans? Since both of the cells that we used are eukaryotic cells, and we’re made up of eukaryotic cells, you would expect that there would be some correlation there,” Montagnes said.
Besides being inexpensive and resilient, Montagnes said protozoa are ideal because they have a similar metabolism to higher animals, but aren’t classified as such.
Now that the study has been published in the International Journal of Cosmetic Sciences, Montagnes said the next step is cross-referencing the research with epidemiological work or biomolecular techniques.
Barile noted that there is much work to be done and “stringent criteria” to be met before the method could be validated by the U.S. government or the European Union. He said scientists need to continue testing with protozoa, and added that testing a larger sample of chemicals that have already been tested with other methods would add to the validity of the study.
If ciliated protozoa do prove useful in cosmetic testing, Barile said the outcome would be a new sensitive, non-animal test – one that fits into the overall goals of the cosmetic toxicology field.
He summarizes those goals as reducing the number of higher animals used in tests, refining tests so they’re less painful and developing tests that don’t require any higher animals. | 2019-04-20T02:17:35 | https://www.insidescience.org/news/protozoa-show-potential-cosmetic-testing |

Centennial College is an accredited diploma and degree granting educational institution located in Toronto, Canada. Centennial College offers educational and career advancement diplomas in various different disciplines through its 7 faculties. Centennial College programmes comply with standards of the Ontario Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities (MTCU).
Centennial College was the first school that opened its doors to students in 1960s during the formation of public college system in Ontario province. The school officially started in October 1966 as Ontario Colleges of Applied Arts and Technology. Centennial College's first campus site came to be known as Warden Woods campus and its first enrolled batch comprised of over 500 students that registered for about 16 courses. Centennial College added various different disciplines under its academic wings over the new few decades.

Information Transfer Economics: How RGDP got its slopes?
To talk about the cause of “slow growth in measured productivity” as if it is just one, not five, things causes confusion.
I agree that you should definitely keep in your head the possibility that anything you observe may have more than one contributing factor! However you should also keep in mind that the other extreme -- a collection of just-so stories that explain your personally selected features of one particular measure of the economy -- can cause just as much confusion.
The gradual decline in NGDP growth is explained in this model by it becoming more probable that a given dollar is facilitating a transaction in a low-growth industry (that the distribution shown here shifts to the left with increasing size of the economy).
Is this correct? I don't know, but I'm doing my best to test it against new data in order to mitigate the possibility of fooling myself with just-so stories.
Perhaps I'm missing something, but I've thought one large factor in the productivity slowdown since 2008 is the slowdown in investment that accompanies economic slowdowns.
Well, NGDP = C + I + G + NX and I is the most cyclical component, so with any recession a big change in RGDP = NGDP/P is going to be associated with a big change in I/P (real investment). A larger recession is going to have a larger fall in I/P.
But as these are all just definitions. "I" is just the leftover partition of currently produced goods and services that aren't consumption, government spending or net exports (the well-defined three). Basically a fall in RGDP is a fall in at least one of, if not all four: C, I, G, and NX. However saying one or more of these components fell doesn't necessarily explain what has happened since those components are just names we've made up.
For further (and more nuanced) thoughts on this, check this post out. | 2019-04-19T18:44:23 | http://informationtransfereconomics.blogspot.com/2016/09/how-rgdp-got-its-slopes.html |

Last week I had the privilege to travel to Costa Rica as part of a scouting visit for a student study abroad trip. In completing an article about Guatemala, I was surprised to learn how little English-based writing has been done about Central American media, so I was curious to learn more about Costa Rica and its media.
Among the countries in the region, Costa Rica is perhaps the most stable. Tourism, mostly by people from the United States, drives the economy. Exports such as medical tech and baseballs also contribute to the economy. The country faces challenges with drug trafficking, immigration (primarily from Nicaragua), poverty, law enforcement, and gender-based violence.
Journalism plays a strong role in Costa Rica, as it does in most Latin American nations. Journalism there faces familiar challenges, including reputation loss, fake news, and funding declines. People are more informed than they ever were, however. User access to news is primarily through mobile devices, then television, and finally tablets at a distant 3 percent.
Entertainment television is dominated by United States programming. For example, the cable offerings included movies such as the Lord of the Rings trilogy (with the Elvish subtitled in Spanish) and The Proposal (don’t judge me). The country receives telenovelas from other countries, but it has no telenovela of its own.
One person frustrated with these offerings asked me why reality shows like 90 Day Fiance continue to appear on television. While the media might tell us that these are shows we want, arguably the bottom line informs these shows’ creation, which are cheaper and faster to produce than expensive sitcoms like The Big Bang Theory. The person asking made a compelling argument for how that show promotes human trafficking.
Another strong point that emerged from the week’s discussions is the importance of representations. The influx of U.S.-based programming squeezes out local programming and its voices. That influx also brings its fair share negative gender and ethnic stereotypes. The question arose: Why don’t audiences resist the negative representations more? Films like Wonder Woman and The Black Panther offer the rare exceptions in an otherwise overwhelming sea of negativity, at least in fiction.
Social media became a question as well. Mobile devices accessing news also access social media, though digital inequalities exist and coverage doesn’t reach the more rural and remote areas. Social networks there are more in person than online.
Advocacy groups use social media to help people and to promote their actions. Gender-based violence, particularly femicide, remains a problem in rural areas. Focusing on the potential victims, education provides one of the strongest means to escape it, as many women don’t know what options are available. In-person meetings play a strong role, but a Facebook page also encourages people to share their stories.
Another problem is incestual relationships between older men and teenage girls, and as a result the rate of teen pregnancy is quite high. Girls lack education, role models, and self-esteem to break that cycle, though some groups work to empower these girls through life skills, relationship skills, and critical thinking skills. Documentaries such as Girl Rising and Half the Sky help call attention to this issue, though each in its own way.
I also heard about a local documentary that followed one pregnant teen’s story: Kassandra: Una Mama de 13 Años. It was produced by NTN24 — Nuestra Tele Noticias 24– and some excerpts of the film are available.
In all, these observations only begin to scratch the surface of the media and social media in Costa Rica. Online searching makes learning about the media organizations, social movements, media productions, and social media possible, but there is something to be said about learning from the people making and using the media for their own purposes.
I enjoyed learning about Soy Niña — thank you for coming to speak with us. Best wishes on your continued success in empowering young women! | 2019-04-23T04:12:46 | https://www.documentarysite.com/2018/05/mi-viaje-a-costa-rica/ |

So it’s been fairly silent on the blog when it comes to the living room. As you might remember we had a big demolition round.
We tore a lot of things out already, but we still had to do more. Like stripping all the old plaster from the wall. In the next picture you see one of the living room wall partly stripped.
After we did that we did nothing for a while in the living room, so we were able to set up our table and chairs here.
And it was so funny to me. Because if you don’t know we have this huge renovation going on, this could even pass for a nice interior picture. With the soft light through the window, the rustic brickwork and the striking red chairs.
Dust and tools all around. Chairs that don’t match and a grubby floor. But it’s ours!!!
After finally getting everything done in terms of demolition we could start making some actual progress!
So the walls are bare and we closed off the hallway.
And a big step forward was the placement of our en suite door.
The alignment needs to be altered slightly (it’s positioned to much to the right of the frame when it’s closed in my opinion), but what a different feel this already creates!
Love, love, LOVE the en suite door.
I must admit I would have preferred to sand down the door and paint it first, but now it’s hanging there I will have to make it work.
And then it was finally time for some big changes. Starting with the insulation of the living room. And the bay window looks different already.
The other walls are not ‘outside walls’, so they don’t have to be insulated.
I haven’t talked much about the insulation itself. But as you can see (clearly and repeatedly) we choose Unilin for our house.
Unilin is a PIR product (a thermoset plastic foam) and relatively thin compared to other insulating materials. The also offer one of the highest insulating values.
We were a bit limited in the ways of insulation we could pick, because we don’t have a cavity wall (this was not custom building practice back then) and we can’t insulate from the outside of the house (because it would alter the house and you need a permit for that).
So while it is not the cheapest material around we decided we would do it anyway, because the house could be (a lot) more sustainable. We won’t be able to do all the modern ‘green’ upgrades, but where we can we will.
And then it was time for the plasterboards to be placed!
The wall and the bay window was done. As well as the ceiling. The wall with the en suite and the (ex) doorway to the hallway have not been done. They will get stucco right on top of the brickwork.
So that’s it for this update. Next one will be a big one, because that will feature stucco! And hopefully paint as well?
Curious about progress? Leave your email address and we will send you an update when something new is posted. | 2019-04-22T12:55:37 | http://www.housetreebeast.com/progress-report-on-the-living-room-1/ |
Registration dates are published in the Academic Calendar in this Catalog, in the Registration Handbook published each semester, and in the Academic Calendar published on the Office of the Registrar website. Times and details of registration, and instructions on how to register for courses via the myUCCS Portal are published in the UCCS Registration Handbook each academic semester.
The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment requires that all students born on or after January 1, 1957 must provide a copy of documented proof of immunity to Measles, Mumps and Rubella (MMR). Housing students must provide proof of a meningococcal vaccination or booster vaccination within the past five years, or sign the Mandatory Meningococcal Disease Information waiver form prior to move-in. See the Wellness Center under the Student Life and Services section of this catalog for further information.
Census date is the last day to drop full semester length courses without penalty and receive a tuition refund for each course that is dropped. Full semester length courses are courses that meet the full 16 week term in the fall and spring and 8 weeks in the summer. Courses dropped prior to census date are not assigned an official grade. Courses dropped after census date are non-refundable and are assigned with an official grade of “W” (Withdrawn).
Short courses are defined as courses that meet in a nontraditional or condensed pattern within a semester. These courses are often called “intensive” courses. These types of courses have special academic and financial deadlines that differ from full semester course deadlines. Short course deadlines are published on the Office of the Registrar website.
Students are allowed to add full semester length courses without instructor permission/approval for the first seven days of the fall and spring semesters. In summer semesters, students are allowed to add full semester length courses without instructor permission/approval for the first three days of the semester. After the aforementioned deadlines, students must acquire approval from the instructor to enroll in a course. Only the instructor approval to add a course is required until census date. After census date, instructor and dean’s approval are required. Special deadlines apply to short courses.
Students may drop courses freely prior to the published census date for each semester and receive tuition refunds for each course dropped. Refer to the census date policy above.
After census date, students may drop full semester courses freely until the 10th week of the fall and spring semesters and the 5th week of the summer semester via the myUCCS Portal. A grade of “W” will be automatically assigned to courses dropped after census date.
After the 10th week of the fall and spring semesters and the 5th week of the summer semester, courses may not be dropped unless there are circumstances clearly beyond the student’s control (e.g., accident, illness, etc.). In addition to the instructor’s approval, the dean of the college offering the course must approve the drop. If approved, a Course Change Form or Complete Withdrawal form is required. If the instructor or dean judges that the situation does not meet the course policy for drops, he/she will not sign the form and the student will not be dropped from the course. Course Change Forms will not be accepted without required approval and signatures, and the drop is effective the date in which forms are received by the Office of the Registrar.
Students receiving financial aid or veterans benefits must also obtain the signature of the appropriate certifying official.
Tuition assessment for courses added after initial registration, which would result in additional tuition charges, will be added to the student’s bill. Full semester courses added by undergraduate students after each term’s census date are not eligible for the College Opportunity Fund stipend.
Nonregistered students: Individuals who wish to attend regular session main campus courses and are not currently registered students can contact the Online and Academic Outreach Office to audit courses on a space available basis. To qualify as an auditor, an individual must be 21 years of age or older. Individuals are not eligible to audit courses if they are under suspension from the University. No academic credit is earned.
Registered students: All students attending regular session classes who elect to participate in a class without receiving credit must register for the course and sign up for No Credit (NC grade). The tuition and fees for No Credit courses are the same as for courses taken for credit. In order to register for no credit, the student should complete a Credit Change Form indicating the course for which no credit is desired. Deadlines and rules for registering for and changing a No Credit course are the same as for Drop/Add. No Credit courses appear on the CU transcript with a grade of “NC” and no academic credit is earned. These courses are not eligible for financial aid. Also see Grading Policies and Drop/Add.
The University reserves the right to cancel, postpone, or combine scheduled classes and to change instructors.
A full-time undergraduate degree student is one who is enrolled for at least 12 credit hours each semester. Undergraduate degree students are considered part time when they are enrolled for fewer than 12 hours. These criteria also apply for unclassified students without a degree.
A full-time graduate student is one who is enrolled for 5 credit hours of graduate level coursework, or at least 8 credit hours in a combination of graduate and undergraduate coursework acceptable for graduate credit, or any number of thesis/dissertation hours.
Unclassified students with a degree-seeking student loan deferment must be enrolled for 12 credit hours to be considered full-time.
Withdrawal means that the student is dropping all courses for which they are registered for in a specific term/semester.
A student will be allowed to withdraw from full semester length courses during the first ten weeks of the fall or spring semester or the first five weeks of the summer term. After this time, a student may not withdraw unless the circumstances are clearly beyond the student’s control; this requires the approval of the instructors and dean of the student’s academic program.
A student receiving financial aid or veteran’s benefits must obtain the approval of the appropriate certifying official. Financial aid may have to be repaid.
The student must obtain approval from the Student Financial Services - Cashier’s office.
A withdrawal becomes effective on the date the withdrawal form, completed by the student and signed by the student’s dean and required certifying officials, is received by the Office of the Registrar. Eligibility for a rebate or refund of the total bill is determined by the date the form is receipted by the Office of the Registrar, NOT the date the student stops attending class.
Unless the student follows these procedures, the withdrawal is not effective and grades of “F” will be recorded for all courses not completed.
Note on short courses: Short courses are defined as courses that meet in a nontraditional or condensed pattern within a semester. These courses are often called “intensive” courses. These types of courses have special academic and financial deadlines that differ from full semester course deadlines. Short course deadlines are published on the Office of the Registrar website.
The University will discontinue a student’s program(s) if there is no enrollment activity for three consecutive semesters. A student must reapply with the Office of Admissions if they wish to enroll in courses after their program(s) have been discontinued due to no enrollment activity. Students who are admitted to the University and do not enroll for the semester they are admitted will be discontinued for no enrollment activity. A student must update their application status or reapply if they wish to attend the University for a future semester.
Degree students should refer to the appropriate school or college section of this Catalog for information regarding eligibility to return.
Non-degree seeking (unclassified) students’ (major code NDLD, NDUD, NDHS or NDDW) continuation is contingent upon maintaining an overall grade point average of 2.0 upon completion of 12 or more credit hours. Failure to maintain the required average will result in an unclassified student being suspended. The suspension is for an indefinite period of time and becomes part of the student’s permanent record at the University. While under suspension, enrollment at the University is restricted to summer semesters.
Unclassified students are not placed on academic probation prior to being suspended.
Master and Doctoral degree candidates who have finished all coursework must be enrolled in a zero-credit placeholder titled “Candidate for Degree.” Master or Doctoral degree candidates should register for this zero-credit placeholder the semester in which they will be taking a comprehensive examination, defending a thesis, dissertation, report, or project. Please see the Course and Program Fees webpage on Student Financial Services (Bursar) website for fees associated with this placeholder.
A student is initially classified as an in-state or out-of-state registrant for tuition purposes at the time an application and all supporting credentials have been received in the Office of Admissions. The classification is based upon information furnished by the student and from other relevant sources. The requirements for establishing residency for tuition purposes are defined by the law of the State of Colorado (Chapter 23, Article 7, Colorado Revised Statutes, 1973, as amended). After the student’s status is determined, it remains unchanged in the absence of satisfactory evidence to the contrary. Classification standards conform to state statutes and judicial decisions and are applicable to all of Colorado’s state-supported colleges and universities. The student who, due to subsequent events, becomes eligible for a change in tuition classification, whether from out-of-state to in-state or the reverse, has the responsibility of informing the Tuition Classification Officer in the Office of the Registrar after such change occurs, in writing within 15 days. If an adult student or emancipated minor establishes domicile outside of Colorado, this student must send written notification within 5 days to the Tuition Classification Officer.
Any student who is 23 years of age or older, or is an emancipated minor as defined by law, is qualified to change their domicile and their tuition classification status. Detailed instructions as to the procedure to follow and the necessary petition forms are available from the Tuition Classification Officer, Office of the Registrar. The deadline to submit a Petition for In-State Tuition is the first working day of the month of the semester for which the change is requested.
Petitions will not be acted upon until an application for admission to the University and complete supporting credentials have been received.
Changes in classification are made effective at the time of the student’s next registration semester.
A student who willfully gives wrong information to evade payment of the out-of-state tuition is subject to legal and disciplinary action.
Petitions and all required documents must be submitted no later than the following dates prior to the semester for which the change in status is sought.
Late or incomplete petitions will not be considered until the next semester.
Special rules for residency apply to active duty members of the U.S., Colorado National Guard, and Canadian armed forces permanently stationed in Colorado, as well as their dependents; and Olympic athletes in training. Strict deadlines of certification for each semester that one enrolls are enforced for these individuals. Members of the U.S. military, Canadian military, and Colorado National Guard, their family members, and Olympic athletes who are undergraduate students and qualify for a waiver of non-resident tuition ARE eligible for the College Opportunity Fund (COF) stipend. Please contact the Tuition Classification Officer in the Office of the Registrar for details.
Honorably discharged members of the armed forces and their dependents moving permanently to Colorado qualify for in-state tuition in certain circumstances. Contact the Office of the Registrar for additional information.
All credentials (high school and/or college transcripts, test reports, etc.) used for admission become the property of the University of Colorado. When a student has been out of school for five years, their file is destroyed.
The Permanent Record Card showing all academic work done at any of the University of Colorado campuses, including credit courses through Online and Academic Outreach, will be maintained in perpetuity.
Courses are grouped by the semester in which they were taken.
For students graduating from colleges and schools represented on two or more campuses, there may be no campus designation.
Emphases within a major, as well as academic minors (completed at time a degree is awarded) are recorded on the transcript.
General and departmental honors are recorded on the transcript.
University of Colorado transcripts of student academic records can be ordered through the transcript ordering portal at www.uccs.edu/registrar. Expedited processing (Electronic PDF, FedEx, Same Day Pick Up) and easy online payment are available. Additionally, standard paper transcripts are available and will be processed within 5-7 business days from the date the transcript was requested. Standard paper transcripts are sent via first class U.S. mail.
Currently enrolled Colorado Springs students can view/print their unofficial transcript by accessing their myUCCS portal. Unofficial transcripts are not available to former students or alumni. If you are a former student or alumnus, you will need to request an official transcript through the transcript ordering portal (www.uccs.edu/registrar).
Transcript orders must be requested using: the online transcript ordering system, an in-person written request, or written request through U.S. mail. The University of Colorado Colorado Springs does not accept transcript requests via fax, email, or telephone. Transcripts are prepared only at the student’s request. Copies of transcripts from other institutions cannot be furnished.
NOTE: Official transcripts will be withheld for students with any outstanding financial obligations to the University, or if any restrictive holds have been placed on their student record.
Please visit www.uccs.edu/registrar/transcripts.html or call 719-255-3361 if you need further assistance.
The word preceding the course number identifies the subject of the course. The first digit in the number indicates in a general way the class level of the course: 1000- level courses are primarily for freshmen, 2000-level courses for sophomores, 3000-level for juniors, 4000- level for seniors and 5000- and 6000-level for graduates.
The Catalog that governs a student’s graduation requirements is the one in effect at the time of the student’s most recent admission into the college or school of the student’s degree program. However, additional catalog year criteria will be applied based on the criteria below.
Compass Curriculum - The catalog year for the Compass Curriculum will be determined by the semester in which a student most recently matriculates to UCCS as a degree-seeking undergraduate student.
College - The catalog year for the College will be determined by the semester of the student’s most recent admission or declaration of intent to seek admittance to the College in which they will be seeking a degree.
Major/Minor - The catalog year for the Major/Minor will be determined by the semester of the student’s most recent declaration of a major or minor. Note that for the professional school programs, the Major and College catalog year may be the same.
Students always have the option of moving to a newer catalog year than the one in which they were initially declared. However, once a student moves to a newer catalog year, they cannot move back to an older catalog year.
Policy of the Board of Regents requires that students declare a major by the time they have 60 hours toward their current degree or by the start of their junior year.
It is the policy of UCCS to adhere to the final examination schedule as published online on the Course Information Center each semester. While it may be appropriate not to give a final in some cases, such as laboratory courses, seminars, and colloquia, final examinations should be given in all other undergraduate courses. Fall and spring semesters have a final exam schedule. Summer final exams are generally taken on the last day of the course.
Exceptions to this policy should be agreed upon by the faculty member and the chair of the department no later than the beginning of the semester in which an exception is requested. The resulting decision should be announced in writing to students in the class during the first week of classes.
The scheduled final examination period should be considered an important part of the course and used as a final examination period or for additional instruction.
The final examination in a course should be given as scheduled and not at other times even if the faculty member and all students in a course agree to such a change.
The week of classes preceding the scheduled final examination period should be used primarily for continued instruction and may include the introduction of new material. No hourly examinations are to be given during the week preceding final examinations.
b. such an exception for an early or late examination will not prejudice the interests of other students in the course.
When students have three or more examinations on the same day, they will be entitled to arrange an alternative examination time for the first exam or exams scheduled on that day. Such arrangements must be made no later than the end of the 10th week of the semester (i.e., at the end of the drop period). Students will be expected to provide evidence that they have three or more examinations in order to qualify for exceptions.
This policy applies to all undergraduate students, including seniors. Graduating seniors should not be exempted from final examinations. Such exemptions are inappropriate on both procedural and academic grounds.
Grades, when posted, are available on the myUCCS Portal at www.uccs.edu.
The instructor is responsible for whatever grade symbol (A, B, C, D, F, P, I, or IP) is to be assigned. Special symbols (NC and W) are indications of registration or grade status and are not assigned by the instructor but are automatically converted by the grade application system, explained under Pass/Fail Procedure.
Each College or School individually determines the use of +/- grading.
Beginning spring 2009, the University of Colorado discontinued the use of an IF or IW for an incomplete grade. Up through fall 2008, students who were assigned a grade of an IF/IW had one year to make up the grade or it would convert to an “F” or “W”. Students assigned an “I” have one academic year to earn a grade. After one year, the “I” will be converted to an “F” and recorded on the student record, without formal notification.
The student must ask for the incomplete grade. An incomplete grade is given only when students, for reasons beyond their control, have been unable to complete the course requirements. It is understood that a substantial amount of work must have been satisfactorily completed before approval for such a grade is given.
If an instructor decides to grant a request for an incomplete (“I”) grade, the instructor sets the conditions whereby the coursework will be completed. The coursework must be completed within a year, but the instructor may also set less time than one year for completion. The student is expected to complete the requirements within the established deadline.
The instructor, with approval of the department, determines if the course should be retaken. If a course is retaken, the student must register for the course and pay the appropriate tuition.
The final grade (earned either by completing the course requirements or by retaking the course) does not result in deletion of the “I” incomplete (or IF or IW grade prior to spring 2009) symbol from the transcript. A second entry is posted on the transcript to show the final grade for the course.
At the end of one year, an “I” grade that is not completed or repeated will be regraded as an “F” grade. Requests for an extension of time to complete the course beyond the one year deadline cannot be approved.
Students who wish to register for a course on a pass/fail basis must do so during regular registration.
Changes to or from a pass/fail basis for full semester length courses may be effected through census date for the semester. After this period it will not be possible to change registration unless it is approved by the dean as a specific exception. Special deadlines apply to short courses.
Only 6 hours of coursework may be taken as PF in any given semester.
Students should refer to the rules of their particular school, college, graduate program and/or department for additional information regarding the guidelines and limitations of pass/fail registration.
The record of pass/fail registration is maintained by the Office of the Registrar. Academic deans and faculty will not be aware of specific pass/fail registrations. All students who are registered on a pass/fail basis appear on the regular class roster and a normal letter grade is assigned on the final grade roster by the professor. Once grades are Posted in the Student Information System, the PF-designated classes are converted. Grades of D- and above convert to a grade of P Grades of F remain.
The grade point average is computed by multiplying the credit points per hour, (A=4.0, A-=3.7, B+=3.3, B=3.0, B-=2.7, C+=2.3, C=2.0, C-=1.7, D+=1.3, D=1.0, D-=0.7, F=0) by the number of hours for each course, totaling the hours and the credit points, and dividing the latter by the former.
The grade point average is therefore 47.2 divided by 15, i.e., 3.147.
The grade point received at another institution will not be used in computing the student’s grade point average at the University of Colorado. However, all University of Colorado coursework will factor into the cumulative CU GPA regardless of the campus at which the course was taken.
Grades of P, H, NC, Y,W, IP, I, (IW and IF prior to spring 2009) are not included in the grade point average. “I”s that are not completed within one year are calculated as “F” in the GPA at the end of the one-year grace period.
It is University of Colorado policy that the undergraduate GPA, the graduate non-degree (unclassified) GPA, and the graduate degree GPA are calculated separately as academic careers.
Students should refer to their academic dean’s office for individual grade point average calculations as they relate to academic progress and graduation from their college or school.
College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) provides undergraduate students the opportunity to earn credit for GT Pathways content areas or other degree requirements. A listing of CLEP exam titles, score requirements, UCCS course equivalencies, and GT Pathways categories are available on the Transfer website at http://www.uccs.edu/transfer/transfer-credit-advising/credit-by-exam/college-level-examination-program.html.

Every effort will be made to determine eligibility in advance and only students who have met requirements will be permitted to participate.
Commencement exercises for graduates of the summer and fall semesters are held in December. Spring semester commencement is held in May. Graduates will receive diplomas approximately eight weeks after the end of the semester in which the degree is conferred.
Diplomas will carry the designation of the campus where the majority of the academic work was done at the upper division level.
General and departmental honors are shown on the diploma. The discipline is indicated in award of departmental honors.
The Bachelor of Science or Arts (BS or BA) will indicate the field of study, such as business, chemistry, electrical engineering, or physics. Diplomas do not display emphases within the field of study. Official transcript will display the emphasis within the field of study or program completed.
In the Graduate School, the degree designation is Master of Arts, Master of Science or Master of Sciences, Master of Engineering, Master of Public Administration, Master of Criminal Justice, Master of Business Administration, Doctorate of Philosophy, Doctorate of Nursing Practice.

Hawks coach Rob Beveridge admits Illawarra were their own worst enemy in a failed last ditch finals push Brisbane this week, but he remains adamant his squad won’t quit in their final two games of the season. Illawarra’s hopes of making the post-season went up in flames in a heartbreaking 98-87 overtime loss to the Brisbane Bullets on Thursday night. Despite leading down the stretch and having three chances to ice the game in normal time, the Hawks were gunned down by the hosts in the added period. Import guard Jordair Jett missed a pair of crucial free throws with 30 seconds remaining before Todd Blanchfield spurned his effort from inside the key in the final seconds. The Hawks retained possession after Blanchfield’s miss, but an errant inbounds pass from AJ Ogilvy denied them any chance of taking another shot. Brisbane then dominated overtime to keep their own playoff dream alive while crushing Illawarra’s chances. "Obviously it is disappointing to lose in overtime but we had our opportunities to win the game," Beveridge said. "One of the lessons we always taught to the young kids is that free throws win games. We were up and we missed a couple of free throws, we turned the ball over, we missed three foot shots and lay ups. "Right now it is not a blame game towards anybody because I thought the effort and the fight was fantastic, but from a learning perspective, it will be reinforced that this why we have to be better from the free throw line. This is why we have to box out." While the late misses proved costly, Beveridge pinpointed another area of the game which he felt had truly cost the Hawks. "We lost the game because of rebounding," Beveridge said. "It was 18-2 on second chance points. That just doesn't get it done. We always look at the one percenters and all of those little things. "When we do all that we are a very good team. But we shot ourselves in the foot tonight. We gave up way too many offensive rebounds at crucial times." Illawarra (12-14) would now need to win both of their remaining games against New Zealand Breakers by enormous margins and for both Adelaide 36ers (14-12) and Brisbane (13-13) to lose their matches. Beveridge admitted the Hawks’ chances of making the finals were ‘done’, but said he was proud of the way his troops had competed in the second half of the season. "We just didn't get our stuff together in the first half of the season but the back half has been fantastic," he said. "We have beaten every single team in the league and we were fighting for a playoff spot on [Thursday] night. And that was a hell of a game. "I am super proud of the guys. Obviously there is a lot of disappointment because we lost and the reality is we are out. We have to close out the last two games. We can't quit. We won't quit." Illawarra host New Zealand on Saturday night at WIN Entertainment Centre.

spamassassin is a very nice collection of perl modules to analyze spam bodies for spam.
A test on a spam corpus of one day (60 k spams) revealed, that 50% of the spams are duplicates if one only considers Subject, X-, MIME-headers and the mail body.
What we want to do: don't make the effort on one spam twice. Ever.
That means: if spamassassin decides on one particular email, that it is spam it will be considered spam forever.
The point here is to accelerate Spamassassin not to replace it!
So we stick to a MD5-sum calculation and remember the digest of spam within a berkeley-DB file. | 2019-04-20T21:15:31 | https://peter.schlaile.de/dejaspam/ |
Mohammad Ali Baqiri was only ten years old when he boarded the rickety boat headed for Australia. He remembers climbing aboard with his older brother, his parents remaining in Pakistan. He remembers travelling for seven days at sea, unsure of when they would reach Australian waters. He remembers being intercepted by the Australian Navy.
It took two hours for the surviving asylum seekers to be plucked from the water that day. Two female asylum seekers drowned.
In 2014 the global number of refugees hit 50 million. The world has not seen mass migration this large since World War Two.
Despite such high numbers, the Australian government has closed off its borders to asylum seekers arriving by boat through the introduction of Operation Sovereign Borders.
Operation Sovereign Borders stipulates that all asylum seekers who arrive by boat to Australia must be held in offshore processing centres. If they are found to be genuine refugees, they will also be settled offshore.
The United Nations has reported that Australia’s treatment of asylum seekers breaches its human rights obligations under the UN Refugee Convention. The Australian public, however, largely support the policy.
The second verse of Australia’s national anthem Advance Australia Fair, particularly the line “For those who’ve come across the seas, we’ve boundless plains to share” has truly been forgotten. But why are Australians are so unwilling to open their doors? One reason appears to be a perceived lack of integration by refugees in Australia, including a reluctance to work.
“There is a myth that people who come as refugees to Australia are just passive recipients of charity, that they don’t come to Australia to contribute and that they are a drain on resources,” explains Lucy Morgan, Information and Policy Coordinator for The Refugee Council of Australia.
Mohammad would also like Australia to wake up. The now 26-year-old Law and Management student at Victoria University is an avid campaigner for refugee rights.
“If we don’t praise our multiculturalism we’re not going to get anywhere,” he says.
Mohammad knows about getting somewhere. After three years spent in Nauru, Mohammad was granted a Temporary Protection Visa to live in Australia.
Mohammad settled in Dandenong, before moving to Shepparton in search of work for his older brother who was struggling after being denied access to English classes. Mohammad went to school, focused on learning English and eventually became the school captain at McGuire College in Shepparton. His brother now owns a farm employing local workers.
Mohammad’s story is not unique. A report from the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre found asylum seekers are more likely to start their own businesses than the general Australian population.
“If you’ve taken the risk of having to flee your country and you’ve lost everything, the risk of starting a small business may not seem quite so scary,” Morgan explains.
Another man who did just that is John Gulzari. A Hazara from Afghanistan, John arrived in Australia by boat in 1999. After gaining his citizenship in 2007, John started his own real estate business.
“One of the reasons I was pushing to run my own company was to prove that I was not an economic migrant,” John says.
While the business did not thrive, John did. John became the first Hazara refugee candidate for the Victorian state election. John believes asylum seekers want to integrate into their communities. He considers integration as caring for, and contributing to, the country that he says saved his life. It’s not about drinking a beer and watching the footy.
John celebrates Australia day with pride, volunteers with the Country Fire Authority and participates in Anzac marches for the fallen soldiers who gave their lives so he could be safe in this country.
“We march every year because of how privileged, how lucky we are living here without any war or fear of killing,” he says.
Lucy Morgan says unlike other migrants, refugees do not have the option of returning home and therefore tend to fully commit to their new country.
“Once they are given the opportunity to restart their lives, they often grab that opportunity with both hands,” she says.
But opportunities are not always easily found.
In 2014, the Abbott Government introduced the Temporary Humanitarian Concern (THC) Visa. THC visas restrict visa holders from receiving English classes, sponsoring families and applying for any other permanent visas.
“The issue that we see with temporary protection visas is that the visa denies people the support to settle,” Morgan says.
News of a push within a major Australian party is good news for asylum seekers like John Gulzari. While he has had the opportunity to call Australia home, many others do not.

It's sometimes tricky to truly revel in our daily lives. But it helps to balance daily play with the celebration of life's major milestones. Lighten up, laugh, and play with friends, family, colleagues, even strangers on a train. Daily play is dress rehearsal for life's major celebrations - a birthday in Central Park, Thanksgiving in Atlanta, New Year's in Paris, or a wedding in Detroit. Whatever you revel in, we hope you'll be inspired by the revelry here on POCKETKNIFE.life.

Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego knew that their first allegiance was to God and they should worship only him. Nebuchadnezzar did not recognize any authority above his own; he wanted to be the object of worship. He had commissioned a great statue and ordered that everyone must bow and worship his image or face execution by fire in a furnace.
This statement enraged the king so much that he raised the temperature to the point that even the soldiers in charge of these men were killed by the heat. But God protected his servants from the fire and allowed them to leave the furnace unscathed. After the dramatic rescue of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, the king had a change of heart and praised God. Their faith mentored the king himself.
Do you have the courage to stand up for your convictions in the face of adversity?
Father, give us the courage to be faithful in adversity. May we reflect your image even in hard times. In Christ, Amen. | 2019-04-26T16:08:40 | https://today.reframemedia.com/devotions/witnesses-to-the-king-facing-adversity |

A winning combination in the game of blackjack - is the most important and significant part of the game. Collected or received the necessary combination of 21 points, the player automatically wins the money, what is the purpose of the game. Although collected 21 points - there is no guarantee of winning, because the exact same combination of both the player can collect the dealer. But in fact, such a situation may be deemed reasonable. Because the player is not losing your money and the game continues. Moreover, often the casino https://netentcasinoslist.com/best-casino-bonuses offers a bonus for match points. A bonus - it's always cash.
Thus, the goal in blackjack is a collection of 21 points or collection number of points closer to 21 , which is greater than the dealer, but does not exceed 21. And it does not matter what cards will be collected cherished number. For example, you have collected 19 points and your opponent-dealer - 17, it means that you win, because the border in 21 you have not exceeded, but the amount scored more points than your opponent. The picture shows that the player and the dealer could not collect the right combination, but the player is still in the black, because the dealer's cards scored 26 points - but it's overkill. A player's cards close to 21 points, but do not exceed that number. Only on the number 2 player scored 23 and gave the dealer the bet. It turns out that at a rate of $ 1 (a total of five golf rates = $ 5) visitor casino wins $ 8, not even typing a blackjack!
Do not forget that to play blackjack better strategy , which increases the chances of winning several times. This simple system will help is mainly in black. Usually, in a game of blackjack at an online casino http://casinopokergratis.com/ , computer tells you whether or not to make a move or gather additionally card. Sometimes newcomers blunder or a player may simply reflect and accidentally access Maps. Therefore, the computer asks a further question as to whether you want to get a card. Thus, trying to warn you that you are now going to make a risky move. This is a very handy feature, so if you play this card game for the first time, then choose a casino that will help during the game. For example, Casino, which besides tips on the screen always displays the total amount of credit card rates and the value of the win or loss. | 2019-04-25T00:20:22 | http://www.oddballgamerz.com/21-blackjack-game.html |
Walk into most any Harley-Davidson dealership and someone will come and greet you. At Timm’s Harley-Davidson of Augusta, Georgia, that “someone” is two English Bulldogs. And chances are you will be laughing at their antics before you have a chance to do anything else. Winston and Otis are 2-year-old brothers who have grown up in the dealership. They belong to Jeff Hanson, the GM, and the dealership is their second home. They arrive with Jeff each morning just as they have since they were puppies. In fact, Winston has missed less work days than some other members of the team.
Although they are brothers, they have very different personalities. Winston is very active and loves to have a ball thrown so he can chase it. He’ll even chase an imaginary ball and the customers have a field day watching him chase a ball that isn’t there. Otis is more of an old soul. He loves to sleep and eat. He takes lots of naps, which can get annoying for Winston because he wants to play. As a result, Otis will chase Winston and the end result is one of the many wrestling matches that happen each day.
All this work wears them out so once they get home it’s time for snuggling with Jeff’s four boys and then straight to bed. On weekends they rest up so they can be ready for their grueling schedule of customer service at the dealership.
But the guys do have one other job. Timm’s H-D has a popcorn machine and that stuff can get everywhere. So, the dogs make sure that any popcorn that is dropped on the floor is cleaned up. In fact, they patrol regularly looking for dropped popcorn.
So, for folks traveling through Georgia visiting H-D dealerships, make sure to stop by and meet the bulldog brothers. They’ll be waiting! | 2019-04-20T05:22:18 | https://thunderpress.net/editorial/columnists/shop-dogs-doing-the-bulldog-harley-shuffle/2019/01/16.htm |

The visit to the USA was considered very rewarding in 1981, when eleven surgeons and eight wives travelled the furthest distance the Society had ever ventured. In Richmond, Virginia, where James Robinson had once worked and now orchestrated the Society’s visit, members were welcomed by Thomas Nelson Page Johns (known to one and all as Tommy) and his wife Helen, an ex-New York tennis champion. The English contingent visited the 300-bed private Johnston-Willis Hospital, founded in 1909, which had moved to its present site in 1980. 315 doctors had admitting rights. Here good surgery was seen in well-equipped theatres. A similar private hospital, the Chippenham, was also toured.
At the hospital of the Medical College of Virginia, the Society was welcomed by Professor Lazar Greenfield who told them that Thomas Jefferson had tried to start a medical school in the eighteenth century by importing doctors from Europe, but they were massacred by the Indians. The medical school was re-established in 1837, and received state assistance and its current name in 1853. This lively centre, with much on-going research, was currently being re-built. In Charlottesville, the University of Virginia Hospital was visited, an old building with cramped facilities where surgery was observed in its 16 operating theatres. The social and sightseeing aspects of the visit in 1981 were quite exceptional.
By contrast, on our visit to Washington in 2003, we were hampered by new legislation intended to protect patient privacy which severely constrained any hospital tours in the civilian sector, though our visits to the Walter Reed Hospital and United Services Military Universities were highly instructive. Although we were not entertained by our hosts, a splendid programme of sight-seeing and dining was arranged by our Secretary, whose military connections proved invaluable. | 2019-04-20T12:40:59 | https://www.travellingsurgeon.org/visits-archive/international-visits/usa/ |

“India might import a portion of the items in sunlight based and wind vitality from China right now. In any case, there are organizations in India which fabricate these items, both in extensive and little scale, which have a great deal of potential for fares,” Mehta said.
The Washington DC-based Global Solar Council, a universal assortment of private players in the sunlight based power industry, of which Pranav Mehta is the director, works in close coordinated effort with worldwide bodies, for example, the UN-supported Abu Dhabi-based IRENA (International Renewable Energy Agency) and a few local affiliations and industry gatherings, including Jordan-based Renewable Energy Society.
“Since Indian sun based and sustainable power source industry has increased gigantic skill by setting up a few uber extends just as little activities, including endless number of undertakings in rooftop top sunlight based portion, our organizations will almost certainly encourage different nations, particularly in the Middle East and Africa areas, in their endeavours to advance sustainable power source bigly,” Mehta said.
India has set an objective of accomplishing 175 GW of introduced limit of sustainable power source by 2022 – 100 GW of sun oriented power and 75 GW of wind control – making it among the main five nations on the planet in making interests in the segment. | 2019-04-24T06:44:00 | http://gulftomorrow.com/india-to-target-united-arab-emirates-saudi-arabia-with-new-renewables-transport-body/ |
I was invited to help celebrate the Weidner Center in Green Bay singing in their 25th Anniversary Concert. I shared the stage with 2 other sublime performers - Brad Little and Wayne Lin - who both also had personal connections to my hometown.
I performed alongside Brad Little (Phantom). The concert also feature Wayne Lin on violin.

On Friday, Discover launched a new website that allows consumers to look at their credit score for free online. Known as the Discover Scorecard, this program provides a free FICO credit score, along with basic information about the person’s credit history.
Discover has been providing free FICO scores on credit card statements since November 2013, but this new program does not require users to be a Discover cardholder. By entering some basic personal information on CreditScorecard.com, users can gain access to important details about their credit. FICO scores are used by 90% of the top lenders in the United States, so having access to these scores gives consumers a good idea of whether they qualify for a loan or line of credit.
In addition to seeing their credit score, users can see recent credit inquiries, payment histories, revolving credit usage, and more. Unlike traditional credit score checkers that put a ding on a person’s credit, checking your score through Discover’s program will not impact your credit. This is a new, affordable way to monitor credit, and it could change the way Americans track their financial accounts.
The information on the Scorecard is refreshed every 30 days, so users can track changes in their credit on a monthly basis.
There has been a significant movement for consumers to have free access to their credit scores. Two years ago, the Consumer Federal Protection Bureau urged credit card issuers to provide free credit scores for their customers, saying it would give them a chance to better track the health of their credit.
Several credit card companies now provide free credit scores to their cardholders, but Discover’s move is the another step where credit card companies are providing a free score to all consumers regardless of whether they are a customer.
Capital One was a pioneer in this area when they introduced their CreditWise app in March. This gave any consumer their free TransUnion credit score, and updated that score on a weekly basis. The app also gave notifications if there was a change in the consumer’s credit report. | 2019-04-19T07:05:50 | https://www.lowcards.com/discover-now-offers-free-credit-scores-to-all-consumers-42362 |

Intel’s new premium processors prompt a motherboard makeover.
No matter how you feel about 2017, it’s been a great year for CPU releases. Intel and AMD have doubled down on core counts, prodding processor speeds to new heights and producing some of the slickest silicon since Sandy Bridge. Motherboards have been a different matter, however.
Intel’s sweet Z270 chipset and its silky-smooth setup turned out to be the exception rather than the rule. AMD had plenty of teething problems with Ryzen and Threadripper, and Intel’s X299 introduction supporting Skylake-X was beset by testing board recalls, rushed BIOS updates, memory issues, and other bleeding edge problems across a range of manufacturers that took months of work to overcome. The rapid competitive pace may be bringing long awaited tech to the marketplace sooner, but there’s been a price paid in stability and patience.
Practically speaking, this means waiting a few months before building the latest and greatest system is the wise move. Unless you like playing beta tester, let the firmware updates catch up with the bugs, and wait for happy owner reports to be the rule, rather than the exception. Anticipation beats an early-adopter ulcer.
The good news is that X299’s awkward introductory phase is officially over and there are plenty of motherboards to choose from for HEDT enthusiasts. All the products evaluated for the guide now feature mature, well-sorted firmware and broad memory support, a big step up from the situation during the summer. A few are even second-generation redesigns.
Since the HEDT platform is known for Pentagon-level pricing, special care has been taken to offer reasonably priced picks for the midrange and entry level, along with some alternatives for rig builders with deeper pockets.
ASUS’s leadership at the high end has been besieged on all sides by hungry competitors like Gigabyte and MSI, so it’s welcome to see they’ve upped their game recently with the Rampage Extreme VI. The latest version of ROG’s top motherboard doesn’t rely on the circus atmosphere previous editions used to push excitement, instead presenting a confident, futuristic design sure to turn rig builder’s heads.
The style here is subtle, with silver and black brushed metal heat sinks that house AURA lighting RGB LEDs, which can be configured for a variety of pulse and trace effects or turned off completely. ASUS’s goal of streamlining the Rampage sees components bundled previously as add-in extras incorporated directly into the motherboard with some impressive results.
Previous variants of the Rampage included goodies like overclocking display modules or high-speed Aquantia network cards in the box, both of which are now part of the standard onboard compliment of features, no slots or drive bays required. Networking is especially well represented, with every conceivable wired and wireless network standard present and accounted for, from 3T3R 802.11AD WiFi to 10 Gigabit Ethernet, backed by top-shelf integrated hardware from Intel and Qualcomm. Few home networks today can keep up.
M.2 support jumps to three 4-lane sockets, including a unique adaptor that converts unused DIMM slots into an M.2 drive connector using the CPU’s I/O lanes for improved performance. Slot design allows for full-speed x16 four-way SLI, a rare capability of note to the cryptocurrency crowd and other multi-GPU aficionados.
This M.2 adaptor sits in a slot just to the side of the right DDR4 bank. Intel’s VROC RAID is supported.
ASUS’s newfound focus also pays off with the best overclocking experience for X299, taking the lab’s 7900X to a stable 4.8 GHz with careful tuning. VRM temps were noticeably cooler than the others, although MSI’s X299 XPower Gaming AC wasn’t bad in this regard either. The Extreme VI also had no problems working with every stick of DDR4 it came across sans hiccups or major adjustments, including a few gentle memory overclocking tests. Given everyone’s early firmware issues with X299, this felt miraculous.
Incidentally, wattage numbers at these clocks and core counts are insane, so if you plan on overclocking be sure to back up your build with a beefy, well-made power supply in the 1000-watt or better class. Skylake-X’s crazy resource requirements can make the best PSUs sweat, and the difference between a smooth build experience and frustration can come down to feeding it plenty of clean, stable power. Even well-made 750-watt power supplies won’t cut it, especially paired with exotic graphics card configurations.
The screen disappears behind the mirrored surface when not in use.
The most visible boutique feature is the OLED system display built into the I/O shroud that provides clockspeed, error codes, and temperature information. The display is also customizable, and supports short GIF-style animations and logos. The board is clad with a selectively transparent metallic plating that appears solid but allows lighting effects and the OLED display to shine through when activated. The combination looks fantastic, especially paired with a tempered glass case like Corsair’s 570X.
ASUS earns every penny with exotic features and unique looks.
Surprisingly, while the board’s in-box presentation was good, the more mundane task of finding drivers and setting up the software was troublesome. Corrupted downloads, scattered file listings, installation issues, and sparse instructions make initial setup stressful for newcomers. Combine that with a BIOS that’s easy to get lost in, and it’s a simple matter for first timers to get in over their head. If you're new to the HEDT arena, you might want to stick with a slightly more mundane setup.
MSI sailed to an easy midrange victory with the X299 Gaming Pro Carbon AC, a utility infielder that offers every feature you’d expect along with impressive performance and style at a reasonable price, a rarity for the HEDT platform.
For the many enthusiasts asking for toned-down styling options, including gamers, MSI has delivered a restrained overall appearance, although the tunable Mystic Light LEDs stand ready if you want to party.
MSI’s X299 Carbon Pro AC can dress for any occasion.
Clad in grey and black, the Carbon Pro can also change up its appearance sans light show, via alternate heatsink snap-in plates that come in the box or can also be 3D printed in any style or color, with logos or without. This is a nice touch, and makes MSI’s board one of the most flexible when it comes to rig customization. The standard mounting points for 3D-printed accessories are also present, providing the full DIY experience for system builders with big imaginations.
Performance is strong, with the X299 Carbon Pro AC providing a solid overclocking experience topping off at 4.6 GHz before things start getting too toasty, just a few ticks short of the sample 7900X’s full potential. Memory support with current BIOS revisions is also good, running the lab’s G.SKILL and Corsair memory in dual and quad configurations at speeds up to 3600, although the latter required a few tweaks for full stability.
Dual four-lane M.2 slots and a U.2 connector deliver high-speed drive access along with eight SATA 6Gbps ports for more traditional storage media. Intel’s v219 Ethernet and AC-8265 WiFi handle networking with typical aplomb, and the rear panel offers four Gen1 USB 3.1 ports and a pair of Gen2 ports, including one with a Type-C connector. Supplementing the chipset are a mix of ASMedia’s ASM3142 controllers and ASM1074 hub, which provide the USB 3.1 Gen2 support.
While the price is more than fair for the stability and features on tap, the exotic feel that’s traditionally been part of the HEDT experience is lacking here. It starts with ephemera like cheaper packaging and fewer box goodies, but it doesn’t take long to realize that more useful extras are also absent, such as dual or 10G Ethernet controllers, 3T3R or 801.11AD WiFi, a third M.2 slot or bundled expansion cards. These features aren’t required for most people, but it’s nice to have options. ASUS’s X299 Prime Deluxe is a good step up for rig builders looking for a little more; just be sure you really want those extra features since the price jump is significant.
After an absence in the budget segment of the motherboard guide since the days of Haswell, ASUS’s Prime X299-A snatches the entry level crown from the MSI’s Tomahawk series with a combination of style, refinement, and BIOS features that make it the de facto choice for X299 enthusiasts looking for a baseline motherboard or budget build.
Overclocking tests with Skylake X defied expectations and produced processor speeds of 4.6GHz, equaling some midrange competition. Memory stability was also good, although it’s best to stay at or below 3200 and use qualified DDR4 if stable long-term CPU overclocks are the goal. Also make sure to provide plenty of air circulation as the VRMs get hot.
Looks are a strong point for the Prime, with the white and silver scheme used since Z170 aging particularly gracefully here. A modest Aura implementation provides LED excitement for those looking for flash, and the diagonal, brushed metal heatsink designs are attractive without being garish. Color coordinators should take note that subtle touches of pale green are used on the shroud and chipset shield. These accents look fine on their own, but may clash with certain components, so plan appropriately.
Intel’s v219 Ethernet covers LAN duties and USB includes four version 3.1, Gen1 ports and two Gen2 ports, one with a Type-C connector. The back panel features a BIOS flashback button, and the board itself has a memory reset switch. WiFi however is absent.
Audio starts with the Realtek ALC1220A codec and is backed with ASUS’s Crystal Audio enhancements, once again putting it on par with more expensive boards here on paper, although during testing the midrange and high-end boards tended to produce a slightly richer and cleaner sound. Nevertheless, audio was crisp and drivers were well behaved, you’d need a good set of headphones to notice the difference.
This generic aspect of the Prime X299-A is also its biggest liability. While the rest of the hardware recommended here tries to engage the user in some way or otherwise set itself apart, the Prime X299-A is happy to be the company man. For some, this uniformity provides a stable platform building experience while for others it’s the boring choice. There’s a case to be made for drama-free hardware, however, especially when shopping on a budget.
Note that MSI already has an answer to the Prime in the form of the updated X299 Tomahawk AC. This board arrived at the lab too late for inclusion in this feature, but with WiFi, a lower price, and more personality, this newcomer is already challenging the Prime for entry-level supremacy.
Intel’s previous X99 HEDT chipset is well loved by enthusiasts, and the first to really gain traction as more than an exotic sideshow. Partially due to X99’s long desktop shelf life, where three generations of compatible processors saw time in socket 2011v3 motherboards, the platform was a stable and rewarding investment. Even now Jarred’s benchmarks show some surprising wins for the aging 5930K, and that’s not even factoring in the great overclocking headroom processors like Haswell-E provided.
CPU design is going wide rather than long these days, with cores multiplying faster than clockspeed advances, and results are mixed. While all those extra threads keep a system smooth and facilitate multitasking, designs with lots of cores tend to have lower IPC for several reasons.
On X299, one of those reasons is Intel, who prefers utilizing mature, stable technology in the IT-oriented business markets from which the HEDT system architecture is derived. Well-developed previous-generation core designs are used and beefed up with cache and system memory advances, along with other perks.
While these compensate somewhat, nothing improves IPC better than the one-two punch of higher clockspeeds and improved core designs. As a result, IPC is always paradoxically higher in Intel’s consumer-market offerings, Coffee Lake being the latest example, since they offer the newest cores at the fastest speeds. It’s also harder to produce high clockspeed processors with many cores at the foundry level, since the chances of a low-performance core sneaking in and dragging the CPU to a lower bin go up dramatically as the core count rises.
Intel recommends AIO watercooling at a minimum for X299 systems.
Intel employs several strategies to minimize these problems, including new advanced turbo modes that favor multiple cores and the introduction of a hybrid CPU, Kaby Lake-X, which takes an overclockable late model core, disables the integrated GPU, and puts it on an LGA2066 package, creating a clockspeed happy, high IPC, low core variant for those looking to mix the HEDT experience with today’s CPU technology.
Not all X299 boards support these processors, however, and their low I/O lane counts and lower total memory limits their appeal to the big iron customers common in this segment. Still, Kaby Lake-X remains an easy path to X299, lowering the entry price to the no-limits HEDT platform while also providing a comparable gaming experience to the fastest processors available in the standard consumer market. The fact that most push 5GHz without trying hard also puts them ahead of the 7700k for many enthusiasts, especially overclocking hobbyists.
The motherboards recommended in this guide all received various forms of hands-on evaluation including enclosure installation (full tower, mid-tower, and test bench where applicable), performance benchmarking, stability testing, and a follow-up period of real-world break-in usage that focuses on gaming, entertainment, and media software.
When possible, all tests are performed with the same components installed to remove any variables except the motherboard itself. We also researched the entire field of gaming motherboards and narrowed the list down to the best, most competitive boards before choosing which boards to test.
Benchmarks include AIDA 64 Extreme, Cinebench 15, Crystal Disk Mark, FireStrike, PCMark 8, DPC Latency Checker, and others with all relevant results reflected directly in the review sections for each board. The real-world break-in period encompasses office and creative work, media streaming, and gaming with a variety of demanding titles such as GTAV, Total War: Attila, Warhammer 2, Company of Heroes 2, DiRT Rally, Bioshock Infinite, Metro: Last Light, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Far Cry Primal, Hitman, and others.
Gaming tests are run at 1080p at medium to high settings to remove any bottlenecks caused by graphics card performance. Rather than outright speed, scores are reviewed for outliers that indicate stability or driver issues. When possible, both single- and dual-graphics card configurations are tested to insure motherboard stability in SLI and Crossfire situations, at high refresh rates, and using 4K resolutions. High-resolution tests are performed on LG’s OLED C7 for clarity purposes.
Overclocking benchmarks include a uniform CPU multiplier test at a fixed Vcore voltage (1.2V) as well as auto overclocking software (where applicable) and fully tuned manual overclock results. Stability tests are performed with AIDA64’s stress utility and extended runs of the gaming software suite at varying levels of detail. | 2019-04-22T22:20:44 | https://www.pcgamer.com/uk/best-x299-motherboard/ |

We celebrated a special occasion at Canlis this week and overall I was disappointed. The service is good but not great, the view is stunning, cocktails and wine were excellent but the food was seriously lacking. For the exceptionally high prices and the addition of a James Beard nomination this year, I expected a top notch culinary experience on par with fine dining in New York and San Fransisco and it was not that.
Staff greeted us at the door and hung our jackets. We were about 15 minutes early for our reservation so we enjoyed some cocktails at the bar. We had a lemon drop and a martini. Both were excellent. We were then brought over to our table and and had the gorgeous view to look out on. The chef sent over some gifts from the kitchen. I do not know exactly what these were. They looked like artful tree branches with matcha powder and there was creme fraiche. There was nothing particularly remarkable about the taste. My husband has malbec with his dinner and I had the chardonnay. We both enjoyed our wine very much.
The remaining courses were fairly forgettable. I had the radish with poached oyster, the crab, halibut as a main course, the soufflé, the chef sent macarons to the table and I had coffee to finish. The halibut was by far the most disappointing dish I tasted. The fish was cut exceptionally well but the plate was almost completely white. The only color was the crab sauce that was added to the dish table side. The fish was almost completely bland. There was little to no taste at all. Absolutely nothing I had that night was anything special. While the presentation was nice, food should taste good! At this price, food should taste amazing and we a truly satisfying and memorable experience. I do not think we will return.
My problem was that we had high expectation given prior review of Canlis. Everything about the restaurant is average, not great and certainly not good value for the money. Compared to other high end restaurants in other metropolitan areas, Canlis lacks in culinary experimentation, food presentation, menu development and basic taste. There are many other and better choices to showcase the Seattle culinary expertise.
The menu lacked imagination and the presentation of the food left much to be desired. The desert was all but tasteless. The wine list was solid, though, but very expensive, even for a "high end" restaurant. This was one of the most expensive meal we have ever had (and we have had dining experiences at the old Noma, Amass, Fat Duck, Bæst etc) for a food experience that was average at best.
First, I want to say that service there is EXCELLENT! I have had the best service everyone I go there. The best patt was when my daughter was able to go into the kitchen and choose her ice cream with th e server. Nice touch! With that said, the selection of food was less to be desired... or more of a select taste. Presentation was excellent however. We will reserve a return visit for sure... when we are up for trying something out of norm.
Tremendous service, superb food, great view, delicious cocktails, excellent music!
They even provided pillows since I was recovering from broken ribs, but without making a spectacle. Loved it!
Everything was great! Food, service, ambiance!
Outstanding dinner with great service and view.
Amazing evening with friends. Food was exceptional. Sommelier exceptional. Who can pass up the view ? Wish more folks would adhere to the dress code or Canlis would politely ask them to leave if not dressed properly. It's not too much to ask.
Great experience celebrating a Birthday! Amazing view, good service, good food, and classy.
Exceptional service and food. The best meal my husband and I have enjoyed on our weekends in the city thus far!!
It was excellent when we went several years ago. Now it's fantastic! Elevated cuisine and a tasting menu on a par with the best in the country. And of course, the view is amazing. Thanks much!
Went to Canlis for a major milestone birthday event for my wife. After being around for pushing 70 years I think Canlis is still the best restaurant in town: amazing and creative food, service that is outstanding without being stuffy, an iconic location overlooking Lake Union, and classic Northwest Contemporary architecture. Of course it's crazy expensive (all in for 6 people inc. tax, tip, one round of cocktails and two bottles of wine was a bit over $1300) but well worth it for the (occasional) special occasion. Everyone should go there at least once. Only quibble is that the cocktail service is slow ( have experienced this on other occasions as well). The bar is small and it seems like sometimes they get overwhelmed.
I really enjoying my time at Canlis. The service was absolutely outstanding from the time we pulled into the driveway to the minute we left. Our servers were always available and explained all the food, how it's made and what's in it, but at the same time I didn't feel overwhelmed by their checking in on us. The food options were quite exotic so you have to have a certain pallet to enjoy them. The prices are steep but it's worth it for a special occasion.
Had our wedding anniversary dinner here. We were immediately greeted by someone who took our car. Proceeding to the inside we were greeted and taken to our table. Everyone was knowledgeable and kind. Even though we dressed up for the occasion, we felt like these people were friends. Food was great! Not the norm, at least for us. Excellent spirits! There was a slight snafu with getting our car, only because the timing was slightly off. The overall experience was lovely. We will be here again!
Amazing! Truly wonderful. I will be back! Service was phenomenal!
Came here for our joint birthdays. We loved the entire experience -- from the service to the food. Considering we got four courses at $105, an amazing view and piano tunes -- I think Canlis provides a lot of value, too. I took off one star for food because the fish was a bit on the salty side and my fiance's rabbit sausage was just OK. Otherwise, the food was so good. Cocktails were nice and strong.
Off the chart good. Our server was one of the best we ever had.
Impeccable food and service as always. Canlis is worth every penny you'll spend. They make you feel as if you were part of the family.
Never disappoints! One of my favourite places to eat period!
We've been coming here for the past four years for our wedding anniversary. And each year always exceeds the previous. If you're unsure of what to do on a special occasion Canlis is your go to place. The service is fantastic, the food is outstanding, and the ambience is perfect for that special someone. Not sure what to eat, always go for the tasting menu. You can't go wrong!
This restaurant should be apart of the Michelin guide .
Great intimate dining spot. The staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome and comfortable. The food was excellent and well-prepared and with each course the dish was described in a very informative manner. The atmosphere was very cozy and the noise levels was very low. The views were spectacular with even a rainbow making an appearance.
Canlis deserves it's reputation as an excellent restaurant with top notch service. Also good view and comfortable venue. Maybe a bit pretentious, but some of that is okay and can add to the fun. All dishes we had were superb except for the halibut, which was bit bland. Canlis Salad was great. The porridge interesting which is a good thing.
Over-the-top service, incredible views and ambiance, exceptiinal food...what more could you ask for? My husband and i have been to great restaurants all over the country, and I have to say Canlis delivers on every level, best dining experience we've ever had.
Perhaps one of the most over-rated restaurants I've been to in years. Service was impeccable, but the food average at best. Lovely dining room (and view) but what was on the plate was not memorable...and $140 bottle of beer on the menu? Seriously? Impossible to find decent wine or beer at reasonable prices to pair with dinner.
Kudos to Matthew however, for elevating the experience above the mundane.
We were so excited to take our friends of 45 years to Canlis. They were visiting from New York City.
-we asked for a quieter table...we couldn't believe how loud the piped in music was, when we politely asked TWO different waiters to have it turned down ( it was emptying out) we were told it was an old system so it couldn't be adjusted??? Really?!
-we had to ask for a wine list and were told by our obnoxious waiter that it was across the restaurant so it might take a bit?????
This was not our first time at Canlis ... but it may be our last.
The atmosphere and physical location is truly exceptional. The bartender was stuffy, but the rest of the wait staff was wonderful! The food is good, but most of what we had, we've already forgotten... Really, really expensive for forgettable food.
Great service, tasting menu was great and definitely walked away full. Service was on point. Food was great and had interesting flavors.
What can I say about Canlis, it is always a magnificent experience. Food is amazing. Ambience is over the top!
Service impeccable and a wine list above the rest! Sommeliers are very well educated is all wines and will assist with pairings. Thank you Canlis.
Out server Mathew was great. He took out son to the kitchen to meet the chef because it was is bday. Great hospitality and service!!!
After living in the area for many years, my fiancee and I decided to FINALLY try Canlis. It's an iconic Seattle institution; and we thought it was time we tried it. Everything was OK. Our server was knowledgable and the wine pairings were great. We each had the tasting menu and wine pairings. Unfortunately, while everything was OK, the food quality did not justify the $600+ price (for the two of us). The lamb main course was amazing, and the Canlis salad was great. Everything else was just OK, except for the smoked oyster dish, which was just weird. It was all a bit disappointing, and would have been disappointing even if it had been half the price. We've had better meals for much, much less $ at Lark, Altura, Spinasse, Bateau, The Whale Wins, Dahlia Lounge, Walrus and the Carpenter, Tilth, Girin.... But.. At least now we know not to bother. With all that said, the serving staff was very professional; although it seemed odd that nearly every dish and wine pairing was presented by a different person. Overall a disappointing evening.
We had an incredible evening....the ambiance...very attentive staff, and exquisite food...combined with some exceptional libations....made for a perfect night. We will be back soon.
This was an anniversary dinner and we were disappointed. We've shared our anniversary at this location before but the food was not at the same caliber as it was for the previous meal. The service was attentive but slow.
Excellent experience. It exceeded expectation. Service was impeccable and food delicious.
Excellent, innovative food along with classic dishes. Superb wine list. As always superior service, particularly from the cellar master Jackson.
This experience was amazing. The service and food were outstanding. It felt like we were the only table in the restaurant.
Excellent overall. Service was the best we have experienced in America. Never felt rushed and the wait staff was attentive and informative about every aspect of the meal. The view and ambiance were exceptional. We will return whenever in Seattle.
Perfection! The view, the service, the food, the wine..... a fantastic dining experience. Our waitress & Sommelier were outstanding. We can't wait to go back.
Canlis doesn't disappoint. The meal was fabulous and the service excellent as always.
Amazing experience and worth the trip. When in Seattle and looking to celebrate, make the effort through Canlis! | 2019-04-26T11:48:34 | https://www.opentable.com/canlis |
After just a few seconds of admiring the Hagstrom Tremar Viking Deluxe, we just couldn’t leave it off our chart of the best jazz guitars – it’s just beautiful! Established in 1958, the Swedish brand has a platoon of fans and many professional artists using their instruments including Kurt Cobain, Elvis Presley, David Bowie and Jimi Hendrix. One of their most iconic guitars is the Viking, and this delightful mid-range semi-hollow body reissue is an awesome tool for any jazz guitarist. Let’s see how it stacks up.
As Hagstrom say, the Tremar Viking Deluxe is indeed dressed to kill. Although it is actually based on the original Viking from the 1960s, this modern reissue feels quite contemporary in style. The Viking’s 24.75” scale length body is made entirely from laminated flamed maple – not that you’ll know it from looking at it, as the whole thing is enrobed in a deep glossy black paintjob with elegant white body binding adding great definition. The neck is made from Canadian hard maple and set into the body. Under the hood is Hagstrom’s patented H-Expander truss rod, which – in a nutshell – provides incredible rigidity, to allow for a very low action and thin neck.
Combine this with the double cutaway and you’ll find that all 22 frets are entirely accessible. Hagstrom use Resinator as the fretboard material, which is a stable and consistent composite with a similar sound profile to ebony, and one that is very welcome in this guitar. This is finished with striking pearl block inlays, to complete an all-round luxurious look. The only thing lacking a little was the setup out of the box – it feels in need of a little attention to reach optimal playability. Otherwise it’s a beautiful model with a reassuringly heavy weight and solid feel.
Most notably, this Viking is kitted out with two Hagstrom HJ-50 covered humbuckers at the bridge and neck position, controlled by an individual tone and volume control for each pickup, along with a pickup toggle switch on the upper bout.
Hagstrom go to town with the rest of the hardware on this Viking, as it sports a set of fantastic tuners with a very distinctive pyramid design and precise 18:1 tuning ratio. These tuners, combined with the self-lubricating GraphTech Black Tusq XL, keep tuning very stable, while the chrome tune-o-matic bridge and that excellent Hagstrom Tremar Vibrato tailpiece allow for beautiful on-board vibrato effects.
Onto sound and it’s just as lovely as the design and build. Acoustically, it doesn’t have a big projection, although it certainly more than audible for practice – more so than your standard electric guitar anyway. Through the humbuckers is where it excels, offering the distinctive Hagstrom tone that’s won over so many players through the decades. There’s a vintage midrange-heavy feel, which can produce some wonderful sounds ranging from the smooth, warm tones that jazz players crave, right up to bright bell-like tones for lead playing.
It’s easy to see why the Hagstrom Tremar Viking Deluxe is such a popular model. Despite a few setup issues, it’s a solidly built guitar with great design, playability and tone for jazz guitarists – although it feels versatile enough to cope with any vintage-tinted style. A worthwhile contender.

What do you do after an accident? Here are some practical tips.
Safety is number one. Make sure you and everyone else involved in the accident is safe. If you or anyone else is injured call 911 immediately. Do not assume anyone else is calling.
Stay at the scene and contact the police. No matter what the circumstances, you want to make sure that you contact the police, get a police report and the name and badge number of the responding officers. It is illegal in some places to leave the scene of an accident, no matter how severe the accident was. And it goes without saying you should be honest with the police. If they ask you if you’ve been injured, and you do not yet know, say you are uncertain rather than no. Pain and injuries may not become apparent for hours, days, or even months after the accident. And the adrenaline you are experiencing after an accident may mask and hide your injuries and symptoms. If you say you have not been injured when you are asked at the scene, the defendants will try to use that against you in court.
Leave the vehicles, but move to the sidewalk or a safe location. If the injuries are serious or there is a dispute about who or what caused the accident, leave the vehicles where they are until after the police arrive. Do not let anyone convince you otherwise. Place your flashers on and turn your engine off. If there is any damage or debris on the road, leave it until the police arrive. While the cars should remain, you should move to the sidewalk or shoulder as soon as safely possible.
Get eyewitness information. Get the names and information of anyone who stopped to help or witnessed the accident. If you do not get this information, it may be impossible to find these witnesses at a later date.
Take photographs of everything. This includes the scene, the other driver and their passengers, the cars, the locations of the cars and any debris, and any cameras or businesses in the area.
Write down a summary of what happened. You want to write down as soon as possible a comprehensive summary of the events leading up to the accident, what you remember about the accident, and what happened after the accident. Write down the weather conditions at the time of the accident. Also, draw a map that shows to the best of your recollection what happened and where everyone was located right before the accident. Save this so you can give it to your attorney if and when you contact an attorney.
Contact an attorney. If you do not know an attorney, ask your friends. Time is of the essence. Critical evidence, such as video footage, could be lost if you do not act quickly, and an attorney will have the skills and resources to gather this information. Attorneys may also have the contacts and knowledge to help you obtain the medical care and treatment that you need. Oftentimes states will have “no-fault” systems whereby a certain percentage of medical care and treatment is covered automatically without charge to you, along with compensation for lost wages and other damages. An attorney can help you collect these benefits.
Seek Medical Care. Make an apt to see your family doctor or a family practice doctor. You want to make sure you explain to the doctor the things that are bothering you after the accident. Make sure to tell the doctor everything. If your arm hurt before the accident, but hurts worse after the accident, explain how the pain has changed. And pay attention for signs of whiplash. These could include (1) neck pain and stiffness (2) loss of range of motion in the neck, (3) headaches, (4) tenderness in the shoulder, upper back or arms, (5) tingling or numbness in your arms, (6) fatigue, and (7) dizziness. If you experience any of these symptoms you need to see a doctor.
Keep a file. Keep everything that you receive or send concerning the accident in a file. Start a new email file folder and save all your emails there.
Do not post on Social Media: Resist the urge to post photos on social media. Defendants could use what you post on social media later to try to twist the facts against you, or understate your injuries.

SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - June 5, 2007) - Just in time for summer, Metromint (www.metromint.com), the original mintwater, with the unique cooling sensation, now has four vibrant varieties to choose from: super cool Peppermint, subtle Spearmint, bright Lemonmint, and juicy Orangemint. Metromint doesn't just taste fresh, it feels fresh. Real mint stimulates the brain to open your senses and send cooling sensations throughout your body. Long after your first taste, the mint continues to invigorate. Metromint is the perfect way to beat the summer heat.
All four mintwater varieties are made with pure water, and absolutely no sweeteners, preservatives, or calories. Nothing but all natural ingredients and a surprisingly vibrant taste.
Whether you're looking for a way to kick your soda habit, reduce your calorie intake, or just long for a refreshing drink with just a little more oomph than plain water, Metromint provides hydration and keeps your cells happy so they (and you) can thrive.
Prevention Magazine highlighted the anti-fatigue properties of Metromint in "How to finish your workout feeling fabulous." Weightwatchers.com recently dubbed Metromint "one of the top ten food trends to watch." MTV VJ and "Entertainment Tonight" correspondent Vanessa Mannillo included Metromint on her list in US Magazine as "one of the beauty essentials that she can't live without." Dr. Charles Stuart Platkin a.k.a. The Diet Detective refers to Metromint as a "Calorie Bargain" in his new book: "The Diet Detective's Countdown."
Each variety of Metromint is designated with a numerical chill factor. From mildly cool Orangemint (-3) to super cool Peppermint (-9), the chill factor is a comparative scale that measures the range of minty refreshment. No matter which variety you choose, you'll experience all-natural refreshment with the cooling sensation only found in Metromint.
taste that awakens your senses.
orange grove in full bloom.
Metromint stimulates the senses, soothes the stomach, and restores the mind. Exactly the kind of benefits you just can't get from plain old bottled water. And exactly why style- and health-conscious consumers are drinking Metromint.
Mint stimulates the brain, while sending cooling sensations throughout the body. The natural menthol in Metromint freshens the breath and can clear congestion related to colds and allergies. Enjoyed before a meal, mint increases the flow of digestive juices. After dinner, it soothes the lining of the digestive tract. Pregnant women with upset stomachs and morning sickness report Metromint's calming, all-natural benefits.
Metromint is the brainchild of Rio Miura and Scott Lowe. Born in Japan, with a background in product and fashion design, Miura conceived the recipe for Metromint and designed the packaging. Lowe, a Stanford graduate with a degree in International Relations, is responsible for product development and oversees operations. Together they run Soma Beverage Company, LLC., a small group dedicated to making great-tasting beverages that combine the purest ingredients with innovative packaging and extraordinary taste.
Metromint has single-handedly created a new beverage category called mintwater, which combines the properties of functional and flavored water. Metromint is also quickly gaining popularity in the enhanced and premium bottled water categories.
Metromint continues to win accolades from national media including U.S. News & World Report, Real Simple, Self, "The Today Show," CNBC and the Food Network. Metromint Peppermint was introduced at the New York Fancy Food Show in July 2004 and won a "Best of 2004" new product award from Bevnet.com. Metromint Spearmint was introduced in March 2006 at the Natural Products Expo West, won a Best New Beverage Award and received a 4-Star rating from BevNet. Watch for Metromint on the Food Network's "Unwrapped," airing in August 2007. Look for all four Metromint varieties at the Fancy Food Show in New York, July 2007.

It’s not a common material to use for lighting but the raw appearance of concrete means that it can create an interesting effect when light is cast onto it. Several companies and individuals now offer concrete light products with a mixture of pure concrete to mixed materials. Using wood and concrete seems to work really well due to the contrasting feel of materials. The wood offers warmth and nature and concrete represents the coldest, industrial and most stark of materials around.
Have a look at some of the products I have picked and see what you think. | 2019-04-21T06:53:30 | https://adamchristopherdesign.co.uk/concrete-lighting/ |

Boston College men’s hockey will again be on the international stage this winter.
Goaltender Joseph Woll and center Aapeli Räsänen have been selected for preliminary rosters in the 2018 International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) World Junior Championship. Woll, a St. Louis, Mo. native, was named to Team U.S.A., while Räsänen was chosen for Team Finland. Associate head coach Greg Brown was also named an assistant coach for Team U.S.A. for the third time in his career.
Both players represented their respective countries in this tournament last year, and are favorites to return to the full 23-man roster, which is expected to be named on Dec. 23. World Juniors will take place from Dec. 26, 2017 to Jan. 5, 2018 in Buffalo, N.Y. The trio will likely miss the Eagles’ home matchup against Connecticut on Dec. 30. If either the U.S. or Finland reaches the tournament’s title game, those players will likely miss the Ice Vegas Invitational on Jan. 5 and 6 against Michigan Tech and Arizona State/Northern Michigan.
Seven members of the 2017 U.S. National Junior Team that won gold last year will return along with Woll. Among them are two Boston University players: forward Patrick Harper and goaltender Jake Oettinger. Last year, BC had five players on participate in the tournament: Colin White and Casey Fitzgerald joined Woll, while Jesper and Julius Mattila played for Finland. Team U.S.A. has won gold three times in the last decade—2010, 2013, and 2017—and bronze twice—2011 and 2016.

Passive dreaming and zero action will not make your dream come true. In order to achieve something one has to turn a dream into a goal and make a detailed plan of its realization - this principle has been the motto for the residency of artist Alevtina Kakhidze in St Petersburg. The participant of the 4th season of TOK’s project ‘Critical Mass’ has been working with young people from the youth club ‘Energiya’ for three weeks. Over this time they have been discussing each other’s hopes and plans and Alevtina has been helping the young people to create individual routes of achieving their dreams. Creating a detailed plan of following one’s dream thus has appeared to be a unique mental and creative task that has stimulated the teenagers to believe in themselves and ignore a sarcastic saying ‘Dream on!’, which can be very discouraging when you’re young. This has also boosted their confidence and showed ways of how desirable things can be reached as well as has given them better understanding of what they want and what they’re capable of in order to reach it. The dreams of the young people are very different - some are of rather material nature, like buying a house, some want to change something about themselves or obtain a new skill and some just want to regain the ability to dream.
All the individual routes are to be presented at the event concluding Alevtina Kakhidze’s residency, which will be held in the format of a performative conference ‘Dream Cartographers’. All dream achievement strategies will be revealed!
‘An antipode of a dream is planning, a to-do list that we write down in our calendars. If you carefully plan the process of achieving a dream and present it in a format of a road map with all the significant turns and roundabouts, the dream will turn into a goal which is easy to reach! It is important to imagine a very detailed picture because it helps to understand what needs to be done to reach this goal already today. When we just started the project I asked the kids how they see me - as a mentor? as an adviser? as a fairy? But they decided that I will be just Alevtina’.
Alevtina Kakhidze was born in 1973 in Zhdanovka, Donetsk region, Ukraine. In 2004 she graduated from the National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture in Kyiv, graphic department. In 2004 – 2006 she studied at the Jan van Eyck Academie, Maastricht, Netherlands. She is the Kazimir Malevich Artist Award winner in 2008, First prize winner of the Competition for Young Curators and Artists, Kyiv, Center for Contemporary Art at NaUKMA in 2002.
She is a participant of numerous international and Ukrainian art projects including 6th Moscow Biennale, Manifesta 10, St. Petersburg, Russia, Drawing Class for Collectors within the 7th Berlin Biennial, You are at Home of Vladimir Alevtina Suzi Penelopa at Ya Gallery, Kyiv, Working for Change, a project for the Morocco Pavilion within the 54th Biennale di Venezia, I’m late for a plane that’s impossible to be late for (with the support of Rinat Akhmetov Foundation for the Development of Ukraine), Якщо/Если/IF (Perm, Museum for Contemporary Art PERMM), 1989–2009: Turbulent World – Telling Time (Berlin, Art Academy, Kiev, National Art Museum of Ukraine, Moscow, National Center of Contemporary Art etc.), Endless Sphere (Kyiv, Center for Contemporary Art at NaUKMA) etc. | 2019-04-20T06:55:41 | http://tok-spb.org/new/en/events/dream-cartographers |

Hacienda Heights is an unincorporated census designated place that is located in Los Angeles County. Perhaps the most notable landmark in Hacienda Heights is the Hsi Lai Temple, which is the largest Buddhist temple in Southern California and covers more than 15 acres of floor space. Additionally, Hacienda Heights is known for the Puente Hills Mall which was featured in the motion picture Back to the Future.
If you are facing legal charges in Hacienda Heights, you should probably speak to one of the experienced Hacienda Heights lawyers in the area. These attorneys regularly represent their clients in many legal areas including divorce, automobile accidents, contracts, real estate ,wills, criminal defense, DUI, personal injury, employment, business, and more.
The owner of a restaurant in Hacienda Heights is currently facing a lawsuit that claims she falsely advertised a sushi making class and fraudulent took the money of her students. The lawsuit claims that the owner advertised in a Chinese newspaper two positions in a sushi making class that would cost $3,000. Two students came forward and were promised a job in the Hacienda Heights restaurant upon completion of the course. The students paid up, and instead of making sushi, were instructed to clean the defendant’s house and do her chores. Before the completion of the class, the owner told her two students that classes would be suspended due to a shortage of fish. Instead, she enrolled another student with the promise of a job at her Hacienda Heights restaurant. None of her students ever learned how to make sushi, nor did they ever work at the restaurant.
If you have been the victim of some wrong in Hacienda Heights and you want to take legal action, you will most likely have to file your complaint at the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles. This is the largest and busiest court system in the state and this is why it is important that you have a qualified local attorney to represent you.
It is easy to give up your legal battle before it even starts if you have been having a hard time finding a great Hacienda Heights lawyer. This is where LegalMatch can help you. We offer you a free online service that can quickly and easily match your case to attorneys in your area that are excited about helping you and have the skills to do so. Best of all, when you use our service, you get access to hard to find information like attorney profiles and past client reviews. | 2019-04-25T02:19:14 | https://www.legalmatch.com/find/hacienda-heights-ca-lawyers.html |
I’m not usually a trendy person. The whole idea of “going green” would have been laughable to me a few years ago. I’m still not very good at it. Convenience and cost are still more important to me. I was laughing yesterday when J and I pulled our groceries out of her SUV. We always bring reusable shopping bags to the store….so we’re good that way. The funny thing about the whole scene was J was carrying the reusable shopping bags and I was carrying a case of bottled water. They kind of cancelled each other out.
A few days ago, I was reading Forest Street Kitchen. ImagineAnnie has a long, detailed post about the struggles of trying to live green for someone who really wants to. I, on the other hand, am selfish.
Times are tough. I haven’t had a full time job since moving to Michigan, but J and I still do pretty well for ourselves. We’re smart shoppers and unfortunately, that means not buying local, organic food from farmer’s markets. I feel bad about it, but I don’t feel bad about saving the money.
I would encourage you all to check out the post “It’s Not Easy, Being Green.” It’s a very interesting, well thought out post about how hard it is to actually live a green lifestyle.
I agree! Ann’s post is well thought out and well written. She is one smart cookie! | 2019-04-26T09:06:34 | https://midmichigandining.com/2009/08/31/hard-to-go-green/ |

Systematic program to target articulation and literacy skills simultaneously!
Literacy Speaks! is based on orthographic instruction (printed cues) and allows you to introduce children to sound-letter correlations using a sound-targeted approach while displaying essential sight words. Using the natural progression of letters-to-literacy, children develop literacy skills, expand language, enhance phonological awareness, and improve speech intelligibility - all simultaneously!
This strategy not only corrects articulation and motor-planning errors but provides students with an early literacy foundation that encourages successful development of reading skills.
Click here to view progression.
Taking a few minutes to read a book that introduces the target sound is an easy way to begin a therapy session.
Start with a single letter card.
Identify the letter and introduce the sound correlation.
These help children learn letter shapes while producing target sounds.
Go on a letter hunt.
Engage students in a fun and functional method to find target sound-letter correlations in various environments.
Once the sound is achieved, introduce the word.
Don't reveal the pictures until after the target sound is pronounced correctly at the blended word level with printed cues!
These encourage generalization of targeted sounds at the word level in classrooms and at home.
Introduce sight word cards and combine sight word cards with the target word cards to establish target words in phrases.
Don't reveal the picture until after the target sound is pronounced correctly at the blended word level with the printed cues.
Continue to use the sight word cards combined with target word cards to turn the target words into sentences.
Start small and eventually see if your student can choose different cards to create a sentence.
Create a storybook and read it with your student.
Children love these whimsical books and have such a sense of accomplishment once they are able to read them out loud themselves. Just imagine their smile!
Read to a child today and you will build the literacy foundations for tomorrow! | 2019-04-21T22:17:13 | https://www.northernspeech.com/phonological-awareness/literacy-speaks-kit-2/ |

Dollar Stores have a sort of unique place in our society. We look at them as discount shops where you can buy cheap, poorly put together products. However, Dollar Stores have actually become a great place for you to save money on certain usable products. Whether you are saving money for that great fishing trip or for your next Caribbean scuba diving excursion is beside the point. Listed below are 12 products you need to buy at the local Dollar Store.
Would you trust the future of your parenthood to an item you bought at the local discount store? Well, when it comes to pregnancy tests you can do just fine shopping on the cheap. Dollar Stores sell pregnancy tests that are the exact same product as their higher priced retail counterpart. A pregnancy test from a higher priced chain could run you nearly $10 to $15 dollars. Save your money and check out the local DG. If you are still uncomfortable using a cheaper pregnancy test than just buy two and you can test them against each other and know that you are getting an accurate reading with the product.
Whether or not you think buying Hallmark style cards for a family member is cool or not is irrespective here. If you DO want to buy a nice birthday or Christmas card then you can get them cheap and high quality at the local discount store. The biggest benefit of shopping for greeting cards or Holiday Cards at the local Dollar Store is that most people don’t know to shop there, leaving some of the best options still on the shelf. Save your holiday card money for the European river cruises you’ve been looking at. Okay, you won’t save that much money but every cent counts — right?
If you are a broke college kid moving into your first apartment then you probably don’t have much when it comes to kitchenware. Heading over to the local discount shop can lead you to a nice and wide selection of cheap kitchen utensils and tableware that is both serviceable and affordable. We’ve gotten stoneware bowls and microwavable mugs for just a dollar or two each and they’ve lasted forever. You should even see a variety of different designs or colors. Besides, you’ll also find all of those odd Star Wars or Disney themed dishes on occasion, as well. Of course, you won’t save enough money to book that swanky hotel reservation online for Mardi Gras — but it’s a start, right?
Is there anything more annoying to spend money on that is still so required to have? If you are a shampoo freak like us then you need to find ways to get good quality products without busting your bank account. Our local Dollar Store has an entire aisle dedicated to clearance items and it is always stocked with premium shampoo and conditioner brands. Instead of spending $6 a bottle why not opt to spend only $2 or $3? The cruises to Scandinavia beckon!
Do you have a vicious sweet tooth? We do, we’ve probably spent enough money to buy a couple of rental cars thanks to our Snickers addiction. If you just have to have some candy then make sure you get it from the local Dollar Store. Whether you need candy for an afternoon snack or a trip to the movies, you’ll never find it cheaper than at the Dollar Store and you’ll still be getting all of the top notch brands. Besides, your dentist will thank you.
So this sort of ties back into our kitchenware listing but we feel like it deserves special mention. Don’t fall prey to those plastic container slingers that roam the streets during the summer and instead just get your Tupperware needs filled here. You’ll be able to find 2 and 3 packs of plastic containers for only $1 or $2 each, a far cry from the $6 or so that you’ll spend at the local Wal-Mart. They probably won’t last you forever but the money you save can add up and go a long way, especially when you’re looking at those discount hotels for a potential vacation.
If you are the kind of person that likes to keep your home representing the holidays then the Dollar Store is the place to shop! Dollar Stores will frequently rotate in and out their stock of seasonal decorations and you’ll be able to get just about whatever you want for a couple bucks. Waiting until the end of the season will make these decorations even cheaper though we question the sanity of anyone who wants to hang up Halloween decor months after the actual big event. In any event you can always buy supplies ahead for when the season loops back around.
Depending on the size and quality of your local Dollar Store you should be able to find a grocery aisle or two. Many Dollar Stores focus on having a nice selection of canned foods on hand for customers and you can rack up quite the cart full of food before you run out of money. Canned food at the Dollar Store is just as good as anywhere else and it is more affordable than anything. Just make sure you are buying what you need and not what you want, it’s easy to lose sight of your budget when everything is so affordable. Some Dollar Stores are moving even closer to becoming a part grocery store. Higher end dollar stores will even have frozen and refrigerated sections for you to pick through. While the variety is never guaranteed you should always be able to find some high quality groceries for an affordable price.
Did you go to play your favorite video game when you realized that the controller was dead? In a snip you can head over to the local Dollar Store to grab yourself a stack of affordable batteries in just about any size or shape. Dollar Stores will offer the high quality brands you are used to for their close-to typical price, but there will also be an off brand available for you as well. Cheaper batteries are typically worse than their premium counterparts but not so bad that they won’t work out if you need them to. Hey, when you need to land a car rental cheap enough to afford you have to cut your budget in some places!
When it comes time for your Spring Cleaning session the first stop you should make will be at the local discount shop. Dollar Stores are filled to the brim with affordable, high quality cleaning supplies that will just make your life easier. From bleach and rubber gloves to polish and air freshener, your discount shop has what you need. Keep an eye on expiration dates as you shop around and check for potential damaged packaging and you should be good to go.
If you are a new parent or an old hand at raising children then you know just how much goes into keeping your little guy or gal clean. Save some money by shopping at the local Dollar Store for all of your baby cleaning supplies: baby wash, baby oil, diapers and so on. You can even find baby lotions for decent prices. Obviously you will want to take a proactive approach to analyzing ingredients and making sure that the product is good for your child. If you find something that fits your needs then the Dollar Store will probably be the cheapest place to snag it.
Alright, so you are finally all moved into your new place but you need to hang up some pictures and do some general work around the house. If you are near a local discount Dollar Store then you’ll likely be privy to a generous array of cheap tools that can be perfect for your needs. You won’t be finding all of the highest quality, brand name tools but you will find hammers, nails, screwdrivers and so on. For just a few bucks you can get the stuff you need for general house work wile worrying about power tools and all of that stuff later. | 2019-04-22T20:32:35 | http://static.dailyforest.com/travel/12-things-must-buy-dollar-store |

In the spring of 2014, my husband and I spent four months traveling through Central America and through The Caribbean. It was the best trip we made in a long time. This is a collection of some unforgettable beaches where we spent time swimming, sleeping, eating mango , drinking beer and watching sunsets.
Thanks @seojups for letting us know about this place.
In Costa Rica there are so many amazing beaches! Protected by the government there are no hotels, bars or sun beds - just untouched sand and nature.
swimming until the sun goes down.
With stunning sunsets reflected in the black sand.
So awesome ✌️✌️✌️ makes me jealous!
@jordanfoy thanks! I'm like jealous at myself at the moment..😁😆 wish I was in any of these places instead of cold sweden 😖 haha.
@cimek you wanna try be in grey grey + more grey England! I hate Winter haha! Much rather be on one of hear beaches! Beaches don't come like that in England!
I adore Costa Rica! Such an amazing place and the people are delightful! | 2019-04-21T08:22:57 | https://steller.co/s/3rqvksaMrvM |
Molecular imaging is providing new insights into human physiology and disease. It provides more accurate diagnosis, cancer staging, restaging and treatment monitoring, and allows for highly accurate determinations of cardiac and brain function. Molecular imaging thus enables more appropriate and timely treatment decisions. Improved PET/CT and SPECT/CT systems and techniques that allow us to detect tumors measuring a few millimeters in diameter can help to initiate treatment when the tumor burden is still small, and cancers are potentially curable.
Another very important clinical application is the longitudinal imaging follow-up of cancer patients. Innovative software allows the comparison of serial PET/CT and SPECT/CT images using a single, simple navigation tool to interpret images and report findings, according to the experience of Andreas Wahl, MD, of PET/CT-Zentrum Hamburg.
Technical innovation such as a wider axial imaging field in PET/CT translates into a 30 percent increase in sensitivity and 78 percent increase in count rates, according to Stig Larsson, PhD, professor at the Karolinska University Hospital/Institute in Stockholm. This also results in shortened imaging times and might further improve diagnostic accuracy.
SPECT imaging using CT-based attenuation correction improves image quality and diagnostic accuracy in myocardial perfusion imaging of patients up to and over 400 pounds, details James Corbett, MD, director of cardiovascular nuclear medicine at University of Michigan Health System.
Novel imaging technologies such as PET/CT and SPECT/CT have resulted in improved diagnostic accuracy in cancer diagnosis, staging and monitoring. Similar advances in diagnostic accuracy are becoming evident for patients with heart disease. Together with the development of new imaging probes, these technologies have made molecular imaging a clinical reality.

November Update, Yes I'm Still Here!
So whats new at Hackmypi?
So I know we have been pretty quiet on here recently, but there is alot going on in the background I wanted to make everyone aware of, 2019 is set to be an exciting time! Over the past year I have been working on and off on some software projects, seeing as hackmypi.com started out and still is meant to be a place to teach people new skills, I have been working on something pretty cool that will hopefully work straight towards that. Over the last year or 2, Amazon Alexa has released for the Pi as has Google Assisstant. As awesome as this is, there is one huge issue the way I see it. Both require logins and active developer accounts with their respective companies. While this isn't really a huge issue, I like to have the freedom to develop anything I want, without having to register it to an account and setup user profiles with these monstrous companies.
Persephone was originally a project title I came up with for a modular open sourced personal assistant, that would have the ability to import new functionality WITHOUT requiring a reboot of the core system. Based on the Twilio and ngrok back ends I layed out in my Temperature Monitoring post, Persephone is (for now) a strictly sms based personal assistant whose code is 100% open source and being documented so you, the user, can follow along and build your own functions! The code can self import new modules, creating a pre-import real time compile of the code you are trying to import, to protect the integrity of the main function by not importing code that cannot properly compile.
Written largely in python, Persephone is meant to be built on. It is meant to hack, change, add, remove, tweak anything and everything about it. With documentation and examples built in, Persephone allows for an open source personal assistant that you can tailor to your unique needs, or help others by becoming a shared developer for it! All future software based projects will hopefully tie into persephone in some way, with app based versions on their way.
For now Persephone will launch with just a few features. Setting alarms, sending texts to others masking your number, and if you have the EnviropHat, temperature monitoring. The code is almost ready to launch, and I plan on releasing some major updates to it over the next few months, as I do have plans to reorganize how it is structured for scalability. Eventually expect to be able to take it anywhere in a portable form, and integrations with Alexa and Google Assistant. For now, all you will need is a Twilio account (which is very cheap).
New websites, features etc coming to Hackmypi!
It has always been my intent to grow Hackmypi past just Raspberry Pi's. There is a huge world of hacking out there, DIY electronics, cosplay, DIY anything! Hacking is and always has been a curiosity, a longing to try and do things yourself, or modify things to do something new. 2019 will yield a new website that Hackmypi will be under, which willbe announced in the coming months. Hackmypi will stil be the primary location for anything Raspberry Pi related, however there will be a new site open to anyone who wants to post anything DIY. | 2019-04-19T22:22:16 | https://hackmypi.com/novemberUpdate.php |
Masada, Isreal - LTG H Steven Blum, chief of the National Guard Bureau, looks toward the Dead Sea from Masada, Israel, on Dec. 3, 2007. Masada was a mountain fortress held by Jewish rebels in revolt against Rome in the year 73. Blum spent four days in Israel to bolster the National Guard Bureau's relationship with the Israeli Defense Force's Home Front Command and discuss joint exercises and other possible exchanges under the aegis of U.S. European Command. | 2019-04-19T03:10:34 | https://www.nationalguard.mil/Resources/Image-Gallery/News-Images/igphoto/2000013921/ |

The Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers have a lot to answer for… Not only is the conference I attended in Denver in September 2010 responsible for my meeting Eve Morton and Queen Calisto, but it’s where I met Layla Messner (@LaylaMessner), Dawn Embers (@DawnEmbers), Mireyah Wolfe (@MireyahWolfe), and Frankie Blooding (@SMBlooding) as well. Well, meeting Layla may be throwing roses at it because it was more like a Layla sighting. As I’ve mentioned before conferences can get crazy and this one was no exception. I saw and briefly spoke to Layla and occasionally waved across a crowded room, but beyond that we didn’t have the opportunity to chat. But there will be other conferences I’m sure.
Dawn blew into town on the night before the conference and joined the group for a bit as we all chatted about our travel, and which sessions were most important for us to attend. Dawn had her plan all mapped out and once the conference began, she executed her plan… which meant we barely saw her after that, or at least I saw her here and there, but didn’t get much of a chance to chat with her.
Frankie wasn’t actually attending the conference, but lived somewhere in the Denver greater metropolitan area, and she came by for pie after the first night. I tend to be the clueless one, and I didn’t even know what was going on until ordered to go have pie with Frankie. Well, I had coffee, but the group had a great time chatting and Frankie quickly became a member of the crew. So much so, that we snuck her in to the hospitality suite the next night. Shhhh – don’t tell anyone she was there.
Right up front, I’ll tell you that the graphic adorning this post was selected specifically because of Mireyah Wolfe. It reminded me soooo much of her, I had to use it. I really enjoyed meeting this fireball from podunk Louisiana and she made the conference memorable in more ways than one. Mires, as she is also called, kept threatening to go up in flames if she crossed the threshold of a church (which I for one wanted to see), and although the youngest of the group, definitely held her own in the conversations. One of my favorite memories (sorry Mireyah) is when she tried Sushi for the very first time. The facial expressions were priceless. Suffice it to say, Sushi is not going to be high on her list of favorite foods for quite some time. But what I admired was her determination to try the food, and to experience life. Plus, she now gets to use the experience in her writing. I can’t wait to see how.
And I love you too, hon. <3<3<3 It was a blast meeting you. And I'm sure we'll meet again.
Haha. I just found this post, LK. Too funny. And true. In fact, I think I introduced myself in the washroom *gasp, cringe*. But to be fair, we did meet on Twitter beforehand and I suppose hellos are more okay there than pitches or requests for autographs ;).
You’re right… I think we did say hello in the washroom. And yes, the posts were primarily about the friends I met on twitter, which I then met in person – even as fleeting as our meeting was. It was a busy conference. | 2019-04-22T16:12:22 | http://bethecatblog.com/2011/01/the-people-of-2010-part-iv/ |

Since I’m seeing news-reference again to the infamous Year without a Summer, I resurrect this piece from a couple years back. 200 years ago this month, a Ballston Spa, New York newspaper story stated that June 6, 1816 dawned cold and snowy. In the “Year without a Summer” it was reported in Ballston Spa that 5 inches of snow fell in June, and 12 inches during June through August (This was report was cited previously by Albany, New York’s Channel 13 WNYT News in a June 6, 2012 story).
In New York State and New England, growing seasons of 160 days were reduced to 70 (Winchester 2003). Famine and emigration were triggered. In North America, snow and frost recurred during late spring and summer from Canada to the mid-Atlantic. Europe was hit just as hard with weather-related food and economic crises.
Curtin Archaeological Consulting, Inc. frequently performs archaeological surveys at sites of early 19th century homes in the towns around Ballston Spa (such as Ballston, Malta, Stillwater and Saratoga Springs) where people tried to live through the severe, wintery conditions of this unusual summer. We are mindful of the challenges they faced as we document their history. We are also aware that the “Year without a Summer” indicates an extreme that may have been approximated occasionally in more remote, less documented periods of the past. It may help to estimate the limits of extreme cold climates after the Ice Age (cf. Snow 1980:158).
The “Year without a Summer” was caused by the volcanic eruption at Mount Tambora in Indonesia during 1815. The Tambora eruption and its effects are referred to by Simon Winchester (2003) while he put the Krakatoa eruption of 1883 in context. Krakatoa is better documented in terms of eyewitness accounts and the use of trans-oceanic telegraphic communication (which wasn’t around in 1815), but the Tambora eruption is reckoned as the greater of the two. Greater, that is, in terms of the amount of material ejected and the height it attained in the atmosphere. The winter effect during the summer of 1816 was caused by this material circulating and blocking sunlight high in the sky, probably higher than the estimated 22 miles reached by volcanic material from Krakatoa. Winchester (2003:293) notes that periods of cooling are generally associated with volcanic eruptions. However, the 1815-1816 correlation appears to represent a climate extreme like no other since the so-called AD 536 event, also believed to have been triggered by a volcano (Keys 1999).

In this presentation, we introduce the Always Encrypted feature of Azure SQL Database and discuss the business necessity for its use in the Financial Fabric DataHub. We share the Financial Fabric DataHub implementation details focusing on the integration of Always Encrypted, Azure SQL Database and Azure Active Directory.
Thanks for a fantastic video. I built my own "Always Encrypted" demo on my local machine using SQL Server Express (2016) along with an app to access it. When encrypting columns I ran SSMS as "Administrator" so that I could create the certificate in the Local Machine store, rather than in the Current User store, in order to demonstrate the ability to enable/disable multiple users for plain-text visibility. When I run as a different user that has enabled private key visibility ("read" permission in the certificate) everything works fine. But if I turn off that same user's private key visibility, instead of seeing encrypted text in the app, the application times out with this InnerException: "Failed to decrypt a column encryption key using key store provider: 'MSSQL_CERTIFICATE_STORE'. The last 10 bytes of the encrypted column encryption key are: '11-F0-FF-31-DF-61-23-AD-38-9A'. Keyset does not exist." It's the same user with the same permissions, so there is no question that the user can access the Local Machine certificate; the only difference is the private key access that you showed in the demo. What am I doing wrong? Thanks. | 2019-04-25T16:14:34 | https://channel9.msdn.com/Events/Ignite/2016/BRK3162 |

FedEx to Modernize Retirement Plans?!?!?!?!
MEMPHIS, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--FedEx Corporation (NYSE: FDX - News) today announced new measures it is taking to modernize its retirement plans for most of its employees. These measures will take place in the coming year and are in direct response to recent legislative, regulatory and demographic changes that continue to dramatically reshape U.S. retirement benefit needs.
FedEx will continue to offer highly competitive retirement benefits funded entirely by the company and will also enhance its 401(k) plans. The company expects to spend about the same amount on its employees' retirement plans over the long run as it would have spent under the current design and current rules.
Under the new program, most eligible employees who participate in a pension plan will begin accruing future benefits under a cash balance formula, which FedEx calls the Portable Pension Account, effective June 1, 2008. Any benefits already accrued under a traditional pension benefit formula will be capped as of May 31, 2008 and will be payable monthly at retirement. These changes will not affect the benefits of current retirees.
Shifting demographic trends among retirees resulting in greater life expectancy, healthier lifestyles and desire for greater control, portability and inheritability of retirement benefits.
"The retirement landscape is shifting dramatically and we have a responsibility to our employees and shareowners to meet these challenges head on. We have been studying these issues closely and actively participating in the debate about retirement program reform and believe that given the circumstances this is the right thing to do for our employees," said Alan B. Graf, Jr., executive vice president and chief financial officer of FedEx Corp. "In light of the unacceptable risk and volatility that the accounting-rule and funding changes are presenting, FedEx is making necessary changes to ensure that the company will remain competitive and help our employees prepare for a comfortable retirement."
Graf said that the Pension Protection Act, signed into law August 2006, allows FedEx to enhance its 401(k) retirement plans and to expand the number of workers covered by its Portable Pension Account, a cash balance feature that FedEx introduced in 2003.
In addition, demographic trends make it apparent employees need to be more active in saving for their retirement and participating more fully in 401(k) retirement plans. "The future is clear: Employees are living and working longer and retirement plans need to offer greater flexibility," said William J. Cahill, FedEx corporate vice president, human resources. "Updated FedEx 401(k) plans will make saving easier and investments more diversified so retirees can better control their finances."
FedEx summarized many of the changes to employees in a series of communications that began today, and it will share additional information and educational materials in the coming months.
Eligible employees who have accrued benefits under the traditional pension benefit formula will receive transition credits.
Under the 401(k) plans, FedEx will increase its matching contributions for most employees and will provide additional investment options. FedEx will take advantage of changes under recently enacted legislation that allow it to automatically enroll employees and increase their saving contributions each year to boost savings.
"FedEx retirement plans are part of an outstanding total benefits package for our employees," Cahill said. "Planning and saving for retirement is a partnership between FedEx and its employees, and we are committed to helping our employees enjoy a financially sound future."
FedEx Corp. (NYSE: FDX - News) provides customers and businesses worldwide with a broad portfolio of transportation, e-commerce and business services. With annual revenues of $34 billion, the company offers integrated business applications through operating companies competing collectively and managed collaboratively, under the respected FedEx brand. Consistently ranked among the world's most admired and trusted employers, FedEx inspires its more than 275,000 employees and contractors to remain "absolutely, positively" focused on safety, the highest ethical and professional standards and the needs of their customers and communities. For more information, visit www.fedex.com.
Certain statements in this press release may be considered forward-looking statements, such as statements relating to management's views with respect to the financial impact of the changes to the company's retirement plans. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from historical experience or from future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Potential risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the impact of any future pension-related legislative or accounting standard changes and other factors which can be found in FedEx Corp.'s and its subsidiaries' press releases and filings with the SEC.
This won't apply to us. Our retirement plan is negotiated. FedEx has had the "portable pension" for all non-pilot newhires since about 2002.
True, but does it apply to the management guys who currently have a DB Plan? Are we the only ones left with a DB Plan? Yikes!
The way the company press release reads, you'd think this change to the company's retirement plan is the best thing since sliced bread for the average employee. It looks like what is actually going on is a cost reduction for the company for its pension obligations. I would love to know what the net effect will be on the average mechanic's (and other Fedex employees) annual retirement income. Anyone smart on a retirement restructuring like this? Anyone think the average employee will understand the implications of today's action on their retirement?

Said the Delta, USAIR, United Alpa members. To me it sounds like the other fdxers are getting what NW did, far superior to the others. Not b1tching about our retirement but sure would like to look at some numbers for Defined Contribution next time (with a freeze of current DB).
didn't the company offer us the cash balance plan? Our R&I committee obviously didn't think it was a very good deal.
Maybe, but we didn't try very hard to improve it either. Just think that some things not on the table last time should be next time. Again not complaining, very happy with the contract, just think my money is safer in my hands long range. | 2019-04-26T13:45:24 | https://www.airlinepilotforums.com/cargo/10094-fedex-modernize-retirement-plans.html |

On orglearn's sample resume pages, you will find phrases that you can combine to create your own sample resumes for different needs. The site provides information on how to write job resumes to match different employer requirements, resume templates and resume statement examples for your skills and competencies. This approach has been take as a one off sample resume can be too restrictive and because resumes and cover letters need to be tailored to each employers specific requirements. There are also some sample phrases that can of creating a section on the scope of the positions you have held in the past.
Resume writing is a critical and perhaps stressful task that many find difficult and confusing. So if you are confused about resuming writing, hopefully these few resume pages will help. If you don't know what to write in a resume start by reading the job ad and building statements that explain why you have what the advertiser wants.
I guess it would be best if you took a quick look at the main resume template and samples at orglearn resume samples first. As another resume advice site puts it "writing a great resume does not necessarily mean you should follow the rules you hear from others". Although the resume page I have referred to has a particular resume format it is best to remember each resume is (as the other site puts it), "a one-of-a-kind marketing communication" that should reflect what you have to offer that matches the employers needs. It should not however as the other site suggests just "be appropriate to your situation and do exactly what you want it to do". Lets be honest here... employers at the time of receiving your resume and hopefully interviewing you are interested in themselves not your career aspirations.
If you are a student and need to build a resume you will have some lack of experience issues with your resume. The resume sample referred to above can still be used as many of the activities you have engaged in can provide the skill and scope statements you need.
From another site the statement "highlight your achievements like your projects, extracurricular activities, summer jobs and any other part time experience" and add sample statements that demonstrate "your soft skills that are required in all professional jobs". Soft skill that employers are particularly interested in include. the ability to manage budgets, meet deadlines, reduce costs and of course get on and work with others. Any examples you can give of writing proposals, public speaking and problem solving are always winners.

Phoenix Rising: Two Lovers reminds us that its star can be just as compelling on screen as off.
Remember when Joaquin Phoenix was known for being a talented movie actor, instead of for being a mutant hybrid of Crispin Glover, Grizzly Adams and the Beastie Boys? That was awesome.
At this point, it’s still impossible to know whether the human performance-art project Phoenix has become is some gigantic goof, or if he really has drunk long and deep from the crazy fountain. But in either case, it’s a shame that this public circus has become the story, when Two Lovers really should have been the story. Because this Phoenix kid? He can actually act a little.
In his third collaboration with writer-director James Gray, Phoenix plays Leonard Kraditor, a guy with more than few issues. We meet him on the brink of what is (at least) his second half-hearted suicide attempt, the result of some indistinct mix of possible bipolar disorder and a bad breakup. While living with his parents in Brooklyn and trying to get his life together, Leonard meets Sandra (Vinessa Shaw), the daughter of his father’s friend and possible business partner. She’s the kind of woman people call “a nice girl”: pretty, sweet and utterly without drama.
But at around the same time, he also meets Michelle (Gwyneth Paltrow), his new neighbor. And Michelle is the anti-Sandra: a vibrant blonde and recovering addict for whom a long-standing affair with a married man (Elias Koteas) is occasionally the least dramatic element in her life. So naturally, Leonard finds himself drawn to Michelle, even as he begins a relationship with Sandra.
Gray has quietly built a career on sturdy New York-set dramas like The Yards and We Own the Night, earning critical respect for that quiet sturdiness even though it’s more impressive as an abstract idea of observational indie cinema. But Two Lovers is actually a throwback to Gray’s first feature, 1995’s Little Odessa, which employed the same Brighton Beach setting for the same kind of gripping character study. In his more recent features, Gray has seemed to begin with a situation, building characters around it. Here, he’s back to building his situations out of his characters.
And here, he’s got a couple of great characters as a foundation. Michelle is exactly the kind of emotional tornado that attracts people who equate damage with depth, and Gray paints her in the kind of broad, sympathetic strokes that allow both her appeal and her self-destructiveness to emerge. Paltrow, it seems, has only gotten grudging respect as an actor when she’s gotten respect at all, but here she nails Michelle’s mess of a self-image without ever turning her into a caricature.
But the show really belongs to Phoenix’s Leonard, and it’s an amazing symmetry of writing and performance. Gray walks a tricky line between making Leonard charming and making him wounded, refusing to oversimplify him as a morose depressive. Phoenix latches on to that complexity, and finds a perfect way to pitch moments on either side. He turns a simple roll of the eyes—as he spots Michelle getting into her lover’s chauffeured car—into a commentary on the absurdity of his pursuit, and finds a wry delivery when asked by Sandra if he knows her employer, pharmaceutical manufacturer Pfizer (“Yeah, I know it well.”). Every decision we watch Leonard make—from the very first to the very last—becomes a part of a guy who doesn’t seem to know from one moment to the next what will make him happy, or what will allow him to live like an adult.
If anything blunts the effectiveness of Two Lovers, it’s how thin the third side of this triangle feels by comparison. Sandra never entirely makes sense as a character; she claims that plenty of guys would want to go out with her, yet her attraction to Leonard sometimes feels like an act of desperation. The above description of Michelle as the “anti-Sandra” isn’t quite accurate, because ultimately, Sandra seems to exist largely as the anti-Michelle—a representation of the normal domestic life that Leonard can’t quite find it in himself to embrace, rather than a woman with her own interior life.
That still leaves two pretty strong legs to stand on, especially when Phoenix might have supported the film on his own. If he ever gets back around to performing in movies, rather than in the real world, maybe we’ll once again be able to focus on the work. | 2019-04-22T14:58:07 | https://www.cityweekly.net/utah/two-lovers/Content?oid=2136792 |
As the 2019 elections enter a crucial bend, the Kwara Development Foundation, Kwadef has advised voters to take advantage of the poll to exercise their constitutional right to elect their leaders of choice through the ballot box. Kwadef, a non- government organisation which embarked on voters’ sensitisation program in Ilorin, the Kwara State capital on Saturday, enjoined prospective voters to eschew violence and not to allow themselves to be used negatively by politicians during the poll. The voters, who expressed their readiness for the poll, advised the group to intensify the enlightenment program and to help ‘open the eyes of the people’. In a post-event press conference, Dr. Kolawole Afolabi, the president of the group explained that the group remains a non-partisan group with non-partisan interest. He added that as the nation moves to perform the next electoral ritual, the group has decided to step forward and work towards enacting a focused development paradigm for mobilising the collective strength of the people Kwara to achieve sustainable socio- economic growth. According to him, Kwadef is seeking a non-partisan roadmap to restore deliberate thinking, planning and acting together to restore the glory of Kwara State. He maintained that the exercise was the beginning of a series of intervention programs that will spread over a long period of time. | 2019-04-20T08:27:37 | https://dailytimes.ng/kwadef-sensitises-voters-ahead-of-2019-elections/ |
