Stanford's newly renovated Virtual Human Interaction Lab was specifically designed for psychological experimentation in virtual worlds, says Associate Professor of Communication Jeremy Bailenson. "We integrate three virtual senses in a way that's very psychologically persuasive -- sight, sound and touch."
The state-of-the-art lab also offers a glimpse of the near future in household entertainment. "We're using this cutting-edge lab to try to think ahead by a few years to predict what household technology is going to be like and how that's going to affect people," Bailenson said. | 2019-04-24T20:34:18 | http://tjwallas.root.sx/social/stanfords-virtual-human-interaction-lab |
After their "free-range seats" are chosen, we begin with a lot of exploration - of the classroom, of each other, of ourselves. Each year, I give each student a journal for their warmups. The first few pages become a reflection of themselves as learners, along with a plan for what they'd like to accomplish this year. To get an idea about how they see themselves, I jump right in with these questions.
What do you want me to know about you, as a learner?
What do you consider to be your greatest talent or trait?
Who, in this classroom, do you consider to be friend?
Who, in this classroom, would you like to get to know better?
Remember when everything was new and you had to learn how to do the simple tasks you now take for granted? You learned to talk, to get food into your mouth successfully, and to walk. No one could do it for you and you never gave up until you were successful.
Well, guess what? That's what you're still doing!
Every new thing you learn is another first step. Will it be easy? Maybe, maybe not. Will you stumble? It's possible. Will you get back up and try again until you get it? I know you will! I promise you, I will be there to guide you. And more importantly, I will not deny your right to struggle, just like when you took your first steps, because that's how you learn.
What's something that took you a long time to learn, but now it's easy to do?
What is the best way for you to learn something new?
What do you do when something seems really hard to figure out?
Since math seems to be the most popular I've-never-been-good-at subject, I start with a fun place value game, Hi-Lo, that has students building 5-digit numbers, one digit at a time. It's non-threatening and it gives me some quick information about their understanding of place value, their ability to read large numbers, as well as their problem-solving strategies. It also lets me see who relies on a lot of teacher support, as well as who does better with verbal or visual directions. I pack a lot into this little game.
I always play along with them and let them see my moves. I tell them they're always welcome to copy my answers, but just know, I lose more rounds than I win. They see that I'm willing to take a chance that may or may not work out. This also gives me the opportunity to model losing gracefully, knowing it's not the end of the world and I might try something different next round.
They really enjoy this game because they realize that, YES!, they can do math! ...and the barrier starts to crumble.
At the end of the first couple of days, it's time to set some goals, and rethink their negative self-talk. We brainstorm possible sentence starters to replace "I can't." We talk about how doing things differently than they did before is how to get different results.
What do you want to really focus on improving this year?
What will you do differently to make that improvement happen?
What "I can't" thoughts will you change to "I can" statements? | 2019-04-19T16:56:43 | https://www.desktoplearningadventures.com/2016/08/secondary-smorgasbord-creating-positive_26.html |

Diabetes is a very serious illness. It has achieved pandemic levels in the United States. Today, we have a real opportunity for diabetic education. For patients with diabetes, eating a healthy diet and maintaining a daily exercise routine may be all it takes to manage their disease. However, the disease can also require strict care. The condition can be very serious but it can and usually does start out with smaller side effects that are difficult to notice. Specialists frequently prescribe pills or tablets for diabetics with an end goal of managing blood glucose by keeping it within normal ranges. Clinicians will work with patients to determine nutritional plans to help manage the disease.
Individuals diagnosed with diabetes have issues separating and acclimatizing carbohydrates into their body. Carbohydrates are generally foods that turn into sugar in the blood. This sugar is then broken down into glucose and transformed into energy by a naturally produced substance called insulin. Some foods may be worse for diabetes. Foods like pasta, white bread, potatoes, processed foods, and any foods made with white flour or rice are often high in carbs.
A lot of the stuff we eat is made up of sugar. So much, in fact, that it is sometimes hard to find sustenance that is not at its base, a type of compounded sugar. Items with sugar that breaks down very fast are often scored highly on the glycemic index(high is bad by most metrics). These items are not ideal for diabetics as they can cause blood sugar spikes. Usually the goal of diabetes management is to keep blood glucose within normal ranges for as much of the time as possible.
An eating regimen for individuals with diabetes enables them to reduce their intake of easily broken down carbs, as demonstrated in the Glycemic Index. The individuals who have been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes should seek the assistance of a clinician to bolster their knowledge of how diabetes works, so they can make healthier decisions.
An eating routine for individuals with diabetes is usually low in carbs and high in protein. Sugars and white flour are ideally not on the menu. Rice, pasta and any sustenance that is heavy in sugars, ought to be left on the shelf. Dieticians, diabetic cook books, and online resource may also help you better plan your meals.
The bad news is that diabetes isn’t slacking up. New cases are being found at an ever increasing rate. Society as a whole must improve their diabetes education, and that starts with your clinician and nutritional health. The good news is there is currently a developing collection of data about diabetes for patients with the disease that is accessible over the internet. Diabetes puts a substantial strain on the human body. Having a healthy eating routine can decrease the impact of the disease on the body and enable people with diabetes to carry on a healthy, productive life.
It is critical for people with diabetes to acquaint themselves with the Glycemic Index. Finding out what foods cause blood sugar spikes is essential for diabetes management. With this knowledge comes power. If your goal is to keep your blood glucose within normal ranges for as much of the time as possible, the key may be eating healthy and exercising regularly. Keep an eye on those nutritional labels. | 2019-04-26T14:44:21 | https://www.diabetic-shoppe.com/diabetes-mellitus-5/ |

Port Vale head to Tranmere this weekend still searching for their first away point after Tuesday's 2-1 defeat at Carlisle United.
The adage is you don't change a winning team, still less a defence which had just kept a clean sheet in Saturday's hard-earned 1-0 victory at home to Crawley.
But Neil Aspin had hinted in his pre-match press conference that he was considering changes. He said not changing a winning side shouldn't be a hard and fast rule....pointing out that Vale were excellent in winning 3-0 at home to Cambridge on the opening day only for the same side to be pretty awful in a 2-0 defeat at Colchester the following week.
Aspin was more impressed by the result than the performance against Crawley, as he had made clear after the game.
So, the 4-4-2 for that match was changed to a 3-5-2 for Carlisle as James Gibbons, David Worrall and the injured Manny Oyeleke made way for Nathan Smith, Antony Kay and Louis Dodds. The result was a back three of Nathan Smith, Connell Rawlinson and Leon Legge with Mitchell Clark and Luke Hannant as wing backs and Louis Dodds playing just behind Tom Pope and Ricky Miller up front.
Vale were pinned back for long spells of the first half but were much better after the break. Maybe that was at least partly because of a switch at half time as Cristian Montano was brought on for Dodds. Montano's pace made Vale more of a threat. The Valiants also switched to more of a 3-4-3 after the break.
I had Leon Legge and Luke Hannant neck and neck for the man of the match award. Legge had been excellent in his first league start, against Crawley, when he won everything that came his way alongside Connell Rawlinson in central defence. That performance earned him a place in the EFL team of the week - awarded for players in all three Football League divisions - not just League Two.
To his credit he managed to improve on that at Carlisle. He was Vale's outstanding player before the break, winning every battle in the middle of the back three when the Vale were under sustained pressure.
The 33 year old had a poor pre-season, although he was hampered by injuries, but now is showing why Aspin moved quickly to sign him from Cambridge at the end of last season after they decided to release him.
Hannant has played all across the midfield since joining from Gateshead in January, but added to his CV at Carlisle as he was used at left-wing back.
He looked made for the role, impressing with his industry and energy as he shuttled up and down the left. So, he was a contender for the Vale's man of the match even before his superb free kick to pull a goal back a minute from time.
It's often the case that a player's reputation grows when he doesn't play in a defeat. Let's not forget Oyeleke played at Colchester and didn't impress, so it wouldn't be fair to place to burden him with too much expectancy when he does return from his hamstring injury.
But he played well in the opening day win against Cambridge and was arguably Vale's best player before he was forced off injured after 38 minutes against Crawley. In fact his departure seemed to change the momentum of the game as Crawley were on the front foot from then on.
Oyeleke looks like the powerful box-to-box midfielder the Vale lacked last season so no wonder they are missing him. It is the Valiants' misfortune that he is out injured at the same time as Tom Conlon, who impressed the management and supporters in pre-season.
Oyeleke has been hampered by calf, knee and now hamstring injuries since his arrival from Aldershot, where he was player of the year. Tranmere this weekend may be too soon for him, but the Valiants need him fit and playing regularly as soon as possible.
No one at Vale Park is aiming for mid-table, the management want to aim higher than that. But should we really be unhappy if the Vale's position of 11th after four games, is the same after 46?
It's not impossible to finish a point from relegation one year and then challenge for promotion the following season, but it would be a hell of an achievement without a greatly increased budget.
The long journey home from Carlisle may have given 'Monty', as the popular winger is known to team mates and supporters, time to reflect on the turbulent nature of football.
He finished last season as one of the best left backs in the division having been converted to that position from left wing by Aspin in February.
However, he had probably his worst performance in that position during Vale's defeat to Colchester, missed the Crawley game with a back injury, then returned to the side at half time against Carlisle with great success, but as part of a front three.
The management like Montano at left back because they feel he is much better at driving forward from that position than sometimes receiving the ball with his back to goal when he is playing on the wing. It's hard to argue with that analysis when you consider Montano was a crucial player at left back last season having been a peripheral one in the first half of the season as a winger.
...and then just when that argument seemed to be settled, Montano went and played so well further forward at Carlisle.
Good luck to Neil Aspin and in his staff in working all this out. One thing is for certain, when Montano is playing well, he is a huge asset to this team. | 2019-04-19T00:30:22 | https://www.stokesentinel.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/port-vale-talking-points-carlisle-1925372 |

Traditional rum, which is also referred to as industrial rum, is made from molasses, which is a dark sticky juice and a by-product of sugar production. Foursquare, El Dorado, Plantation, Chairman’s Reserve, Diplomatico & Havana club are quite popular in that category.
So what is the difference traditional rum and agricole rhum?
The main difference is the raw material used. Agricole rhum is made from fresh sugar cane juice and is mainly produced in the French Caribbean. Rhum with an ‘h’ normally refers to agricole rhums. Clement, J.M, Trois Rivieres and Saint James are some of the rhum brands you might come across. | 2019-04-24T10:03:35 | http://rumming.co.uk/2017/01/18/traditionalindustrial-rum-vs-agriocle-rhum-rumming-adventures/ |
Brucie Collections gallery presents to you the works by Steve McCurry – an American photographer, to say the least, a legend in modern photojournalism who has been capturing in his acute photographs the joy and the suffering of our world for over 30 years.
McCurry made his name in late 70s, with the coverage of the conflicts between rebel groups and regular forces in Afghanistan just before the Soviet invasion. To make these photographs, which were published by The New York Times and subsequently spread around the world, the author risked his life illegally crossing the Pakistan border and emerging rebel-controlled areas. The coverage, frightening and at the same time deeply humane, won him the Robert Capa Gold Medal for Best Photographic Reporting from Abroad – the highest war photographer award.
At the end of 1984, the photographer got the Afghan refugee camp in Pakistan, where his most famous photograph was made – a portrait of an Afghan girl, whose aquamarine eyes stare at the viewer. It appeared on the cover of National Geographic and was later named as the most recognized photograph in the history of the magazine, having become a symbol of Afghanistan conflict as well as refugees and war problem around the world.
Steve McCurry has been a member of the renowned Magnum Photos agency since 1986, his photographs were published by the leading magazines, such as Paris Match, Stern, Time, Newsweek and Life, used by Amnesty International. McCurry is an author of more than ten photographic books and albums.
The photographer’s work is recognized with dozens of prestigious awards, more than once Steve McCurry was named Photographer of the Year by various magazines and associations, he has unprecedented four first prize awards from the World Press Photo.
You can see the selected works by Steve McCurry, one of the world’s most prominent reportage photographers, in Brucie Collections gallery starting May 15th, 2014. | 2019-04-19T22:59:13 | http://bruciecollections.com/index.php?p=2&s=&event=view&i=45&lan=en |
By far and away, in no particular order, the two at the top of the list shoulder most of the blame. You know the story by now. Ancel Keys .... McGovern Committee ... Low fat dietary guidelines ... we got fat because CARBS and INSULIN!!!
Who hasn't seen some version of this image implicating the Dietary Guidelines of 1980?
The Government & Big Food are in Kahootz!
In a recent discussion on Facebook, someone posted the following image as some sort of smoking gun showing collusion between our government and food manufacturers.
In an ideal world, I suppose the government should have marshalled its forces to educate the population on the already plentiful array of naturally low fat foods available and the most time-efficient ways of incorporating them into daily life. The government could have done a WAY better job of policing advertising and labeling claims, particularly labels referring to "low fat" and "whole grain". But that said, a less jaundiced look at the above reveals a reality already in full force circa 1990. Americans had become a convenience culture replete with restaurants and groceries offering fully prepared to heat-and-eat meals 24/7/365. In a culture where most children were fed increasingly in school, and didn't go home to single wage-earner two parent households at the end of the day, where most singles had no idea how to cook (pretty guilty here despite cooking with Mom a lot growing up), where did (and still do) most Americans go for foods? These convenient outlets.
In the late 80s and early 90s, as a single woman who worked full time, lived alone or with a roommate with whom food was not shared, and commuted a fair distance to go to grad school several nights a week, I remain grateful for Lean Cuisines. I enjoyed a few McLean Deluxe's from the drive thru on my way to class from work ... before those quickly disappeared from McDonald's menu. I was grateful for reduced fat cheese slices and lower calorie bread items to pair with lean cold cuts or tuna prepared with light mayo to bring lunches to work. And don't look now, but in addition to low fat items, as just mentioned, the low carbers have the food industry (for better or worse) to thank for a wide array of sugar-free sweetening options that actually taste good!
The biggest problem with encouraging the proliferation of low fat processed foods is that the food industry focused on substitutes for high fat foods, rather than creating low fat options by expanding food choices. It is because of this that so many believe the opposite of normal-to-high fat foods is cardboard. I don't buy the idea that the "industry" cannot profit from "real food". Anyone who believes that has never been to a Mexican restaurant in the Northeast.
The elimination of the upper limit on total fat would make it easier for industry, restaurants, and the public to increase healthful fats and proteins while reducing refined grains and added sugar.
At NO time in our country's history have food manufacturers been constrained in the fat content of the food supply. They just added *some* lower fat options to convenience menus. I discussed that in this post, that highlighted the Olive Garden menu of the day. Even Subway, the only fast food chain that actively advertises an array of low fat options, has plenty of higher fat fare. Forget 30%, peruse the menus of any of the family style restaurant chains, and it becomes obvious that eating a low fat meal is probably a futile endeavor.
Can we stipulate to the fact that Snackwells were an unmitigated failure and move on please?? What we need in this regard is so-called obesity experts and researchers to wake up to the real world and acknowledge the problem instead of trying to sell diet books and cook books. (I tweeted a chicken recipe from Ludwig's new cookbook that contained 5-6 added tablespoons of oil in a chicken recipe to serve 4 ... there's simply no need for that much oil in a sauce over chicken thighs!!). The problem is culturally ingrained eating habits and *norms*.
IF there is a problem with the food supply it *IS* that truly low fat options in the convenience niche are sorely lacking!
Since my switch in dietary strategy, I've pretty much come to the conclusion that there's no use trying to order a low fat meal while eating out. The choices are so few and even stand by sides cannot be trusted without checking first (even pasta with plain marinara sauce and steamed veggies will barely skate under 30% fat at some places, let alone be truly low fat as they ought to be!) . It gets a little better if one is selective in their packaged convenience food purchases, but it requires a lot more planning than it should. The 1990s era edict failed (miserably) to produce the convenience Americans darn near demand.
If you prepare and eat most of your foods at home, a very low fat diet is rather easy and extremely economical. If you pick and choose from convenience items available, it can be even easier without busting one's wallet. If food manufacturers could just stop adding unnecessary amounts of fat to the convenience food supply, that would be a most welcome start. I know that if I can make amazing, tasty, very low fat foods, *someone* out there has the where with all to translate this to a larger scale convenience market.
Of course this feeds into the perpetuation of macro fixation vs. focusing on foods, but I'm a pragmatist. I don't see the rather simpler macro-centered paradigms going away any time soon. In that spirit, maybe the solution lies in engaging the food industry to make meaningful change to the healthy options in the convenience food supply. FORGET THE SNACK FOODS. Focus on combining real foods into convenience meals!! Sure, we can do this for ourselves, but wouldn't it be nice if the food industry did more of it for us sometimes? | 2019-04-20T18:17:15 | http://carbsanity.blogspot.com/2018/02/maybe-solution-lies-in-making-food.html |
Our goal: enliven brands, interjecting passion and purpose. In doing so, we create meaningful connections to target audiences—engaging viewers and creating shared conversations.

Nielsen has begun the process for a possible sale of the business following interest from private equity firm Blackstone Group, according to an article in the New York Post. Blackstone may make a bid for Nielsen tomorrow, in a deal which could value the business at around $10 billion.
Founded by Arthur C. Nielsen in 1923, the company was acquired by Dun & Bradstreet in 1984, and then split into two separate companies: TV ratings arm Nielsen Media Research and consumer shopping and box office trends specialist AC Nielsen. In 1999, Dutch publisher VNU acquired Nielsen Media Research, and in 2001 it brought both parts of the business back together under the Nielsen umbrella. In 2006, Nielsen was taken private by a consortium of six firms - including Carlyle, Blackstone and KKR - for about $10 billion; then those firms took Nielsen public eight years ago.
Last Autumn, hedge fund Elliott Management Corp acquired an 8.4% stake in Nielsen Holdings, at an estimated value of $660m, with the aim of putting pressure on the Nielsen Board to sell the company. According to the New York Post article, Blackstone - whose Senior MD is former Nielsen CEO David Calhoun (pictured) - is now partnering with buyout specialist Hellman & Friedman to make a bid for Nielsen, and the latter firm's banker JPMorgan has set tomorrow as the deadline for first-round bids. Other possible bidders include Bain Capital, TPG Capital and KKR.
Last November, Nielsen hired former IBM exec David Kenny as CEO, following the announcement of a strategic review, which included evaluating alternatives for the entire company and its businesses - such as continuing to operate as a public, independent company; a separation of its Watch and Buy segments; or a sale of the entire company. | 2019-04-19T18:55:52 | http://www.mrweb.com/drno/news27449.htm |

Nightflyers follows eight maverick scientists and a powerful telepath who embark on an expedition to the edge of our solar system aboard The Nightflyer − a ship with a small tightknit crew and a reclusive captain − in the hope of making contact with alien life.

To find out more about the welfare and the flavour of your festive bird, there are five key questions you should ask, says Devon farmer Anna Bury. Anna, whose family runs the hugely-successful Eversfield Organic, sells hundreds of top-quality turkeys online every Christmas.
The Good Housekeeping taste test gave first place to a turkey from Iceland, which cost just £26. Produced and packed in Hungary, Iceland’s deboned turkey contained a lengthy list of added ingredients including water, maize starch and salt as well as others, in stark contrast to Eversfield Organic’s Devon reared organic 100 per cent pure turkey.
1. How old is this turkey? An organic, free-range traditional breed of turkey will be around six months old and will have reached full maturity. This means it will have a natural layer of fat and will be much more flavoursome when cooked, compared to a younger, immature bird reared with intensive farming methods.
2. What has it been eating? A certified organic turkey must be fed with organic feed, grown to strict standards no pesticides, artificial fertilisers or genetically modified ingredients. Organic turkey feed can cost up to 60% more than non-organic but is definitely worth it.
3. How was it raised? Organic standards mean that an organic turkey is a truly free-range bird, with everyday access to plenty of outdoor space and grazing, kept in smaller flocks. Organic birds will not have been debeaked or kept indoors for their lifespan, like many intensively farmed turkeys.
4. What breed is it? Slow-growing traditional turkey breeds - such as Norfolk black turkey or Bronze turkey - take longer to mature. This gives them a plump conformation of muscle and a natural finish of fat, making them tastier. Most turkeys consumed this Christmas will be reared and fattened as quickly as possible to keep costs down, not good for the bird or the nutritional content of the meat.
5. How was it prepared? Our Eversfield Organic turkeys are slaughtered and dry-plucked by hand on the farm, avoiding a stressful journey to an abattoir which is harsh for the birds, whilst stress can also toughen meat. The meat should be hung for at least seven days, which intensifies the flavour and increases tenderness. We then prepare our turkeys to oven-ready standards with the utmost care and attention. For us, both animal welfare and quality are paramount. | 2019-04-19T15:21:50 | https://www.theexeterdaily.co.uk/news/food-drink/five-questions-farmer-asks-when-buying-christmas-turkey%E2%80%A6 |

In 1974, when Ntozake Shange first released the cannon of Black girl magic known as For colored girls who have considered suicide / when the rainbow is enuf, her opening stanza was a call to all of us.
Anastacia-Reneé’s words frame so many questions: what is sacred, what is beauty, what is tragedy, what rites of passage have we endured to be initiated into the complexities of our humanity? These poems read like rituals, invoking ancestors and Becky alike in a nuanced honest reflection of this time in life.
These poems are stories of blackness, of queerness, of womanhood, and of all the identities we hold externally and internally that create the tapestry of who we are and who we want to be. | 2019-04-20T14:59:03 | http://www.blackocean.org/catalog1/v-ar |

Oral surgery treatment is the process of extracting teeth. Dr. Dbouk has extensive knowledge and training on how to provide you with a smooth and comfortable removal process when necessary.
One the most common procedures are the removal of wisdom teeth. Wisdom teeth – the last four teeth on the top and bottom of your mouth - typically surface between the ages of 17 and 25. Most people don't have room the in the jaw to accommodate them and need to have them extracted. Often times the teeth become impacted because of the lack of room to properly surface. | 2019-04-26T16:11:43 | https://www.seattledentalstudio.com/oral-surgery |

There are very few times I find words can’t adequately explain a performance. Togetherish is a fascinating, highly entertaining dance playing at the Factory Theatre Mainspace as part of the 2015 Toronto SummerWorks Festival that genuinely defies description.
Sitting in the theatre with a small audience, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect when two dancers began tying up the black stage curtains, revealing everything: black boxes, costume racks, speakers, all the exits. According to the program, Togetherish was originally developed as a quartet in a warehouse space, then became a duet for a gallery installation, and has been adapted for the theatre in its SummerWorks iteration.
I wish I could have seen every version of this dance. The choreography and direction by Meg Foley of Moving Parts felt like a natural extension of the theatre, fully removing the fourth wall in a way that I thought was brilliant. There’s no attempt to poke and prod at the relationship between the performance space and the audience. Instead, I felt like someone invited into a rehearsal where the performers were both serious about their work but also happy for the company.
Jungeun Kim and Drew Kaiser are amazing. Between their chemistry, energy, and stage presence I was swept away. When the show ended, I was surprised because it felt like no time at all.
What Togetherish really capitalizes on is the fun in live performance. Kim and Kaiser occasionally put on and turn off music, sometimes they request light cues from their technician, and at other moments they mumble lines to themselves and the audience. It’s both hilarious and striking because it really makes you look at the dance as part of the moment. I don’t think there’s a better way to describe it than an instant where everything comes together.
I doubt Togetherish will be everyone’s cup of tea but in my opinion, it’s a piece that needs to be seen. | 2019-04-19T17:04:35 | https://www.mooneyontheatre.com/2015/08/13/togetherish-meg-foleymoving-parts-2015-summerworks-review/ |

Back in the day, marketers labeled asbestos as a magic mineral for construction materials. Asbestos holds many qualities that made it useful for building materials. Its fibers are soft and resistant to electricity, heat, and corrosion by chemicals. People thought it was the perfect substance to mix with cement and plastics until they discovered the dangers. Asbestos has a myriad of public health concerns attached to its use. It causes asbestosis and a variety of cancers. Because of this, asbestos abatement is a common service needed. If you’re concerned, contact a professional for your asbestos abatement.
Asbestos doesn’t become dangerous until its fibers enter the air. When inhaled, asbestos fibers can seriously damage your lungs. One way it does this is asbestosis. Asbestosis is an aggravation in the lungs that can lead to scarring. Advanced stages of asbestosis can be fatal. This disease can also cause cardiac arrest. Even when non-fatal, asbestosis causes shortness of breath and a cracking sound when breathing. They haven’t yet found a cure for asbestosis.
This is one of the biggest side effects of asbestos exposure. Those who smoke or regularly spend time around other carcinogens have an even higher risk. If you experience coughing and hoarseness, or persistent chest pains and anemia after working near asbestos and its product, it’s best to go to the doctors.
Doctors linker asbestos exposure to many other forms of cancer. One of the more prominent is mesothelioma. This cancer forms in the membrane lining of the lungs and chest as well as the abdomen. It can occasionally affect the heart. Solely inhaled asbestos fibers cause mesothelioma. forms of cancer that have been connected to asbestos exposure include larynx, stomach, and oral. Esophagus and kidney cancer may also be connected to asbestos fibers in the air.
Of course, not everybody is at the same risk level or getting sick from asbestos. Asbestos exposure doesn’t occur in day-to-day life for most Americans. Some professions with a higher risk of exposure are construction workers, manufacturers, millers, and miners. Still, any risk can be too risky. For anybody worried about asbestos, call a professional. Atlantic Bay Contracting offers asbestos abatement.

Callisto is a non-profit that creates technology to detect repeat perpetrators of professional sexual coercion and sexual assault.
Sexual assault and professional sexual coercion are far too common and often never reported. The process of reporting can feel isolating—or worse, retraumatizing. Reporting also comes with its own set of personal and professional risks.
Callisto changes the equation. Our technology empowers survivors, providing options and allowing disclosure in a way that feels safe. Our unique matching system securely connects victims of the same perpetrator to identify repeat offenders.
Callisto Campus provides survivors with trauma-informed options for reporting sexual assault and is now in place across 13 partner institutions. Callisto Expansion addresses sexual assault and sexual coercion in professional industries.
Callisto Campus is designed to detect repeat perpetrators and empower victims to make the reporting decision that feels right for them.
Save time-stamped written records of a sexual assault.
Report only if another victim names the same perpetrator.
Report directly to campus administrators, without waiting for a match.
Under the Callisto "Matching Escrow," victims input the identity of their perpetrators under the precondition that, if a match is found, a Callisto Legal Options Counselor will reach out to each victim individually.
A Callisto Legal Options Counselor advises victims on their choices following a match, including reporting—only if this is the right route for them.
Callisto depends on your philanthropic contributions for our continued success. Donate today and support us as we work to combat sexual assault and coercion across institutions and industries.
Sexual assault survivors who visited their school’s Callisto Campus website were six times more likely to report their assault to their school or the police than survivors who did not.
Since 2015, 10% of records in the matching escrow system have matched. This means that Callisto has identified serial perpetrators in 10% of matching records since our launch. In school year 2017-2018, 15% of records entered into the matching escrow were matched.
On average, students using Callisto are three times more likely to seek out medical and emotional support services.
Since 2015, we have implemented Callisto Campus on campuses to support student survivors of sexual assault. Our partners include Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre, St. John’s University, Hobart and William Smith Colleges, Coe College, University of San Francisco, Pomona College, Loyola Marymount University, University of Oregon, Central College, University of Southern California, University of Denver, Stanford University, and Canisius College.
Callisto appreciates our generous community of donors and volunteers who make our work possible.
Our funders include Google.org, Y Combinator, Greylock Partners, The Skoll Foundation, The New York State Health Foundation, The New York Women's Foundation, The Levi Strauss Foundation, NoVo Foundation, The Horace W. Goldsmith Foundation, PIMCO Foundation, Fast Forward, The Harnisch Foundation, and many others.
Over 600 individual donors also contribute to Callisto. Many donors are survivors themselves, or they are allies who share our vision of a world where sexual assault is rare and survivors are supported. | 2019-04-20T22:26:00 | https://www.projectcallisto.org/ |
Stampd designer Chris Stamp's Spänst collection launches in May.
I am not currently in possession of a perfectly manicured loft with clean concrete surfaces, high ceilings, huge windows, and an expertly curated collection of art and ephemera scattered throughout. But I'd like to be. And while current circumstances dictate that such a thing won't be happening anytime soon, at least I—and you!—can channel some of that vibe with the new collaboration between Stampd designer Chris Stamp, graphic designer Maja Ganszyniec, and Ikea.
The Spänst collection is basically what happens when a streetwear mentality meets interior design. There are clear shoeboxes that let you show off your sneaker collection. There's a mesh wardrobe that lets views of your clothing show through at the right angles, so you can (covertly) display those grail pieces when you're not wearing them. There's a shoe rack that doubles as a skateboard rack—and there's even a skateboard, the first Ikea has ever produced.
"Fashion and furniture are different animals, but the creative process is similar," Stamp said in a statement. "Design, no matter the medium, is always about finding the right solution to a challenge."
"Design, no matter the medium, is always about finding the right solution to a challenge."
The collection also includes a few nods to Stamp's fashion background in the form of a hoodie and a T-shirt, plus accessories like a dad cap and duffel bag. Items like decorative tube lighting, pillows and blankets, and one particularly sleek armchair round out the offerings.
It might not be the same as scoring a brand new place to live, but considering the fact that all of these home and wardrobe upgrades are coming from the notoriously affordable folks at Ikea, you can bet it'll cost you a lot less that signing a new lease. The whole collection makes its debut in stores and online this May. Keep a look out.

GALESBURG, Mich. – Shared corporate values and a history of working together brought Eaton and Cummins together, under a new joint venture that will produce automated transmissions for global markets.
The partnership, Eaton Cummins Automated Transmission Technologies, was announced Apr. 10. On a conference call later that day, Ken Davis, president of Eaton’s vehicle group, said the 50-50 joint venture will include the design, development and sales of medium- and heavy-duty automated commercial vehicle transmissions, beginning in North America and then expanding across the world. Existing product, including the Eaton Procision and UltraShift Plus transmissions, will be covered under the JV but will retain their current branding.
Future products, some which will be launched later this year, will be marketed under the Eaton Cummins Automated Transmission Technologies brand. Eaton and Cummins for several years have worked closely together in bringing to market the SmartAdvantage line of integrated powertrains, combining Eaton automated transmissions with Cummins engines.
The deal was first discussed in September 2015, when Cummins chairman and CEO Tom Linebarger identified key areas for critical growth.
“We have been talking continuously since 2015 on ways we could take the SmartAdvantage concept to the next level, if you will, and this opportunity emerged through those discussions,” said Pence.
Davis characterized the partnership as “an extension” of the collaboration that already existed between the two companies.
“We think this fits very nicely with our core strategy of offering comprehensive system solutions to our global OEM and joint venture partners,” said Pence.
The JV will be based out of Eaton’s Galesburg, Mich. campus and transmission production will continue at existing plants. The joint venture still requires regulatory approvals and is expected to close in the third quarter of this year, around the time the first new product developed under the JV will be launched. | 2019-04-20T18:49:48 | https://www.trucknews.com/equipment/eaton-cummins-jv-extension-existing-collaboration/1003078157/ |
Poli’s Palace Theatre opened on September 2, 1922 with Wallace Reid in “The Dictator”. It was the biggest movie theatre ever erected in Connecticut, and the largest among Bridgeport’s 20-plus theatres.
The Poli’s Palace Theatre is one of two theatres built inside a single building (the other being the Majestic Theatre). The former Poli’s Palace Theatre has clearly seen better days.
It was later renamed Loew’s Palace Theatre, it is similar in style to the Waterbury Poli’s Palace Theatre.
Last renamed Loew’s Palace Theatre, it was screening adult movies in the Winter of 1974, (the Majestic Theatre had closed in 1971) and the Loew’s Palace Theatre was closed in 1975.
there is an excellent urban exploration video of this building and walk-through of both auditoriums. it was posted last month.there is no mention of the location in the video however i recognized it from the various pictures that i have seen and i’m sure that there are very few large double auditorium theaters in the u.s. it is worth checking out. that place still seems to be in very nice shape!!
Actually two videos. Someone needs to restore this building.
From what I saw in the videos both theaters seemed to be in nice shape. But they need to empty out the crap on the Majestic’s main floor.
It looks like renovation will finally happen for the Palace!
According to this article, the Exact Capital Group plans to renovate both the Palace and Majestic Theatres and the Savoy Hotel (to be expanded), as well as build two residential towers across the street and another residential tower nearby.
The Palace would be renovated into a banquet ballroom and a family-friendly indoor recreation center, and the Majestic into a performing arts center. They plan to begin work win about 12 months (late 2018).

From the Connecticut Post: BRIDGEPORT — Even as City Hall has launched a search for developers for properties along Main and Congress streets, ground has yet to be broken on the renovation of a pair of historic theaters nearby — a project offered up as a selling point to prospective downtown investors.
Related Stories New commercial and residential projects touted as reanimating Bridgeport Developer promises late 2018 groundbreaking for Bridgeport… Bridgeport City Council approves theater redevelopment deal Unions to Ganim: Include us in theaters project Zoning board OKs sale of theaters, hotel Bridgeport’s Office of Planning and Economic Development recently issued requests for proposals (RFPs) for the nearly two-acre Davidson’s Fabrics site, also known as the Middle Street Boys Club property, and for a 35,000 square foot surface parking lot used for police vehicles.
The city wants a mix of retail and market-rate housing on the parking lot, but has placed fewer restrictions on ideas for the Davidson’s building. Ideally that historic structure would be restored with “proposals that will draw patrons, dollars and activity into downtown (and) encourage overnight hotel stays” while also serving current and future downtown residents, according to the RFP.
Both RFPs promote a $400 million plan by New York-based Exact Capital, approved last September by the City Council, to restore the Poli Palace and Majestic theaters and Savoy Hotel to the north of Davidson’s Fabric and the cops’ parking lot. Residential towers — one 18 stories high — were also part of Exact’s winning pitch, selected from three responses.
Late last November, Craig Livingston, managing partner at Exact, had said the developer planned to break ground in “the back half” of 2018.
But as of this week, Exact, according to the city, is still piecing together the $50 million in financing needed for Phase 1 — rehabilitating the theaters and Savoy into a hotel with retail and performance/assembly space.
”We talk on a bi-weekly basis as to Exact’s progress on financing and tenancy on Phase 1,” wrote William Coleman, deputy director of planning and economic development, in an email to Hearst Connecticut Media.
Under the terms of the city’s deal with Exact, the developer had a year to assemble financing for Phase 1. Coleman said that the time period ends with the 2018 calendar year, not with September’s anniversary of the council’s approval.
Livingston, when reached by phone this week by Hearst, said he was on a conference call and asked that the reporter call back. He did not respond to subsequent requests for comment.
Coleman said Exact, beside working on financing and pursuing tenants, has also done market analysis and environmental assessment of the old buildings.
Though there has been no visible progress on Exact’s Bridgeport project, the company and its partners have, according to coverage by some Realty websites, broken ground on a similar redevelopment of Harlem’s Victoria Theater — Exact’s first experience with old historic performance spaces.
Michael Jordan, president of Jordan Electric, in mid-April attended a job fair the city and Exact held to promote the planned work on Bridgeport’s theaters and the potential opportunities for local and minority contractors. Unlike some other development deals, Ganim and the City Council did not insist Exact employ union labor — a move proponents said could provide more work for residents and minorities.
If the Palace was the largest cinema in Connecticut, it goes without saying that it was also the largest in Bridgeport. | 2019-04-22T08:51:04 | http://cinematreasures.org/theaters/1453 |
I am trying to get into the insurance business after a career in IT sales and not having very much luck with the companies I am interviewing with or have interest in. It seems all of them except for Union Bankers (a Burial Insurance and MA company) have negative comments posted about the company or management.
I'm a newbie and had looked into NAA and IFG both came up with alot of negative feedback and steered clear. I've been looking since back before Christmas and I think I finally came across a decent company, Physicians Mutual, haven't found alot of negative feedback as of yet and they really seem to have some really good products. The thing that sold me on them is they are very family oriented and seem to care about the individual and not just the bottom line. Now I'm just a newbie so I could just be to trusting but had a good feeling when I walked out of the office. Hope this helps some and hopefully everyone else will jump in and give there 2 cents worth.
Thanks Roger for your input. Just curious, but where did you find your information out about IFG being negative because I have googled and searched everywhere on the net trying to find something but could not find even a blurb mentioned about them.
I will give Physicians a look too. Thx.
If I remember right I checked it out on RipOffReport.com, but like you said in your original post IFG and NAA seemed to be alot alike, when I talked to both basically got the same pitch. Didn't like the idea of being totally on my own just learning the business, sounded like all your support was over the phone or on the internet. Just didn't seem like they were out to help you get ahead, seemed like you are disposable. Now I could be totally off base, but after talking to them and checking out reviews of each company just didn't seem like a good fit for me.
Well open mouth insert foot, guess it wasn't on RipOffReport, but I came up with it somewhere and when I remember I'll get back to you. Maybe it was a previous name or something along those lines, don't want to give you misinformation. Good luck let me know what you come up with.
Thanks Roger. I am suppose to talk with IFG and Union Bankers next week and will post my thoughts on both.
BTW, it seems like maybe you talked with quite a few companies before settling on Physicians; did you have a chance to speak with Union Bankers or Senior Life Services? Also, with IFG it seemed to be a strictly home-based job, did you find out if there are actual sales quotas and weekly/monthly meetings you attend or just completely on your own?
Seems like I did check out Union Bankers and they didn't seem to bad, just didn't have any opportunities where I live. IFG was strictly on your own, they didn't even have a manager close to me and that really set off red flags and I think some of the posts I'd read on here may have given me the idea that there are some pretty stiff quotas you have to meet or your done. Between the two, NAA and IFG, IFG sounded a little better, it just came down to the lack of support that really turned me away. Well keep digging, you'll find your niche, I almost gave up, but stuck with it and thanks alot to everyone who posts on here I was able to come up with something I think I'm gonna like. | 2019-04-25T07:58:48 | https://insurance-forums.com/community/threads/investors-financial-group-ifg-looks-similar-to-naa.508/ |
This year our personal start pursuit racing starts on 24th April it is intended that racing starts at 6.30 for a Mirror (rather than 7) to allow more sailing time before the breeze dies. If you arrive a bit late you may be able to request a small delay from our friendly race team!
To kick off the season, and at the request of several Wednesday Sailors, Mike McNamara has agreed to give a talk on the racing rules on the previous Wednesday evening i.e. 17thApril.
We would intend this kick off at 7 and Mike has promised to aim it at those who have done a little racing but would benefit from knowing more than just the port / starboard rule!
I intend to provide a baked potato meal around 6.45; if anyone wants to partake in this please let me know by Sunday 14thso I know roughly how many to bring!

Everyone will agree that your sink is one of the most important parts of the kitchen. This is a focal point, a place where people gather and get things done. The sink is one of the most useful tools in your entire home, and it’s also one of the most understated design features. It actually gives you a huge opportunity to change the entire look of your kitchen with one small piece. Not utilizing this area as a design feature is a huge mistake. It’s important to take in everything about your kitchen and to use it to enhance the overall style. While the cabinetry provides an essential function, the sink is the thing that you’re probably going to touch and use the most. It’s important that you get something that you like, and something that’s going to serve its purpose well.
If you cook quite a bit and spend a lot of time in your kitchen, then you want to make sure that you have an appropriate prep area. In order to get this prep area, you need to integrate everything surrounding the sink. The sink is generally one of the most important items in food preparation. This is because of its ability to sanitize and to provide a base of operations. This can be used for thawing, containing, cleaning, and everything else necessary to get that food on the table. Having a sink that’s too narrow can cause issues, and having a sink that’s too large can take up necessary counter space that you may need for other things. You need to find that Goldilocks area, that one place where the sink seems to fit all of your needs just right.
One model that is often overlooked is the single basin sink. This is the model that doesn’t have that middle divider that most of us have become so accustomed to. The single basin sink can offer a huge set of advantages that you just can’t find with other models. It’s also a really interesting look for your kitchen. This is because it strays from the traditional and makes a statement.
Only having one basin means that your sink isn’t being divided into two sections. While some may argue that this doesn’t give you the opportunity to wash and rinse, many others say that the dishwasher defeats this entire purpose. Having a wide-open place in your sink is a great way to prepare larger food items, and to actually be more productive in the kitchen. The extra space can make a huge difference, and it can help you to do things that are bit more complicated.
The sink can also look incredible when set into a granite countertop. This makes it look like it’s an up-to-date modern set up with the depression in the middle of the counter. Getting the right faucets and fixtures can push this over the edge. Many people have started using the touch faucets as a way to create a more hands-free design.
This combined with the minimalistic look of the single basin sink sunk into the countertop can be a great way to get that midcentury modern look that’s become so popular.
It can also be a great idea to use an online program to see the way that things are going to look in your kitchen before you actually put them there. Most people remodeling a kitchen are doing so on a fixed budget, and it’s very important that they know what they’re doing before they do it. Finding the perfect kitchen sink is a great place to start. | 2019-04-26T16:48:27 | https://www.houzersink.com/giving-kitchen-unique-look/ |
LED Chips market is expected to register a CAGR of over 17.76% during the forecast period 2018 – 2023. The report profiles the Lateral Chip, Vertical Chip, and Flip Chip providers of LED Chips Market for various End-users industries.
LED technology has captured the lighting industry by offering small and efficient lighting solutions to a different set of End Users. In the past decade, features such as enhanced efficiency, power saving, and compared to traditional lighting solutions, for instance, bulbs which have played a significant role in increasing the demand for LED’s. Moreover, the design process of the LED’s chips has directly influenced factors such as temperature, luminescence efficiency, wavelength, has reduced the overall operational costs. Hence with the improvements in the lighting technology of power LED chips, there is increased adoption of the LED solutions. Thus, with the rapid enhancement in the applications of LED solution, the innovation and consumption is expected to increase in the upcoming years, driving the LED Chips market.
The automotive sector position has largely been optimistic, driven by a shift in consumer demand towards the longer term, cost-effective automobiles. Moreover, recent changes in regulations aimed at reducing emissions may have a telling impact on the industry. Manufacturers have been proactively seeking to differentiate their products from their rivals by adopting next-generation solutions, such as LED lighting solutions. In addition to this, higher efficiency metrics for LED lights has enabled them to cut down on the number of light units deployed as a part of the lighting systems. Also, the increasing prominence of LEDs can also lead to the adoption of smart lighting systems (connected lighting) in industries. Given the flexibility of LEDs regarding color variation and brightness, it makes more sense for connected systems to use LEDs than traditional lighting sources.
Asia Pacific is experiencing a remarkable shift in lighting systems solutions where companies in this regions have been identified to adopt LED lights or smart connected lights (Smart LED’s) in manufacturing and industries plants compared to its counterparts such as luminous, and Linear Fluorescent Lamps are owing to the improved efficiency of LED lighting systems.
Over the last years, China has been gradually reducing the sale of incandescent light bulb products to, ensure that the outdated technology is soon replaced by something more profitable, advanced and environment-friendly. Recently the government of India has supported the plan of deploying cost-effective LED’s across the country among different end-users. According to the Indian government, LED adoption is driving to an annual energy savings of over 3,350 million kWh and resulting in avoidance of over 6,725 MW of peak demand.
For instance, the World Bank approved a USD 220 million loans and a USD 80 million guarantees for the India Energy Efficiency Scale-Up Program. This Program is to be implemented by the Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL), which will help to scale up the deployment of energy saving measures in public sectors and residential. As other countries in the region are expected to follow suit, the demand for LED’s is expected to increase.
Mar 2018: Samsung has enhanced the Chip-Scale LED Package Line-up by doing the revamping of FEC LED’s packages to be the industry’s highest light efficacy levels, to suit a wider range of lighting applications.

ORILLIA, ON: Conner Watt wins the men's individual title with an insurmountable score as well as the Humber Hawks men's and women's golf team both taking home team titles on Wednesday at Hawk Ridge Golf Course in Orillia.
Conner Watt, who won the men's individual title on Saturday at the Fanshawe Invitational in London, records his personal best tournament score to win back to back titles with an incredible eight under par (66).
The men's team as a whole were out to prove a point after being bumped to second place via tiebreaker on Saturday. No other team came close to the men's combined score as they won comfortably with a whopping 15 stroke lead.
On the women's side, Hawks won the team title with a combined score of 167 (McCallum's 78 and Marrast's 89) defeating Fanshawe's score of 174. Freshman Hayley McCallum placed 2nd individually with a score of 78, losing to the winner by a single stroke.
Hawks return Thursday for the Georgian Invitational. | 2019-04-24T22:46:48 | http://humberhawks.ca/sports/mgolf/2018-19/releases/20180919wqfpeo |
This week has been really busy. It was the council AGM on Tuesday and I was made the new deputy mayor. Even though it's a role you basically get because no one else wants to do it, I am pretty excited about it! It will be nice to see more of the nice side of local office - visiting community groups, attending events, and generally seeing all the good work that goes on in the borough. You can read more about it HERE.
On Wednesday it was the Community Council AGM. Marianna came with us to that one and looked adorable - but defied all attempts to get a nice photo. THIS is the best one we managed!

Singapore, 30 May 2016 – Labuan International Business and Financial Centre (Labuan IBFC) sets to target high net worth individuals (HNWIs) looking for wealth management solutions and business owners in Singapore looking to internationalise or regionalise their businesses.
Speaking at the recent Singapore chapter event as part of the nine-city Labuan IBFC Roadshow 2016 across ASEAN, CEO of Labuan IBFC Inc Sdn Bhd Danial Mah Abdullah said, “Without a doubt Asia Pacific has a huge potential for private wealth management activities with the amount of HNWIs expected to be the major drive”.
He added that the number of HNWIs in the region is growing at an annualised rate of 10.3% according to Asia-Pacific Wealth Report 2015 published by Capgemini and RBC Wealth Management.
This positive growth augurs well for Labuan IBFC to attract more international players and to develop its jurisdiction to become a premier wealth management hub in ASEAN in the near future.
“To cater to this growing need; Labuan IBFC provides one of the widest range of wealth management solutions for wealth creation and wealth preservation in Asia, either in conventional or Islamic space,” Danial said.
Home to more than 55 international banks, 200 licensed insurance related entities; and 38 trust companies; Labuan IBFC has seen a positive and sustainable growth in its business activities.
“The growth clearly reflects the robust and steady growth of the industry as well as the rising demand in Labuan IBFC’s products and services.” Danial said.
He went on to add that the jurisdiction offers the widest range of wealth solutions in Asia, either in conventional or Islamic.
These include solutions for wealth creation and wealth preservation such as private foundations and trusts that can be structured according to needs while adhering to strict international standards of governance, compliance and transparency.
“We believe that Labuan IBFC stands out as the ideal midshore jurisdiction with our balanced supervisory and regulatory framework,” he added.
Labuan IBFC welcomes the demands for greater transparency and effective exchange of information across all international financial centres as the Panama Papers issue has greatly demanded for such requirements.
“We welcome this development as business activities in Labuan IBFC have always been conducted under a strong set of rules and regulations that ensure the orderly establishment and operations of Labuan business entities including the licensing of financial institutions.
“Indeed the international focus on traditional offshore financial centres to some extent has allowed Labuan IBFC to stand out as one of the centres that abides to the international standards and best practice of good governance and transparency,” Danial said.
He explained that as Labuan is part of Malaysia, it extents that Labuan IBFC be also committed to the global standards and requirements on transparency and exchange of information, in addition to providing a business friendly operating environment.
“We believe that as businesses have to adopt the new normal of higher transparency requirements, it would be natural for them to consider establishing substance in a well-regulated jurisdiction which facilitates cross border transactions and investments. We would like to say that this jurisdiction is Labuan IBFC,” the CEO added.
The economic integration through the ASEAN Economic Community has allowed Labuan IBFC to be positioned as an ideal entry point for investors and businesses into ASEAN.
“Investors and businesses can gain access to a larger and more extensive marketplace in ASEAN while operating in a well-regulated and business friendly environment in Labuan IBFC,” said the CEO.
The Singapore chapter is one of the countries that Labuan IBFC Roadshow 2016 was visiting and the roadshow will also take place in Manila in the Philippines and emerging economies of Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam and Myanmar. The roadshow kicked off in Jakarta, Indonesia and has since visited Bangkok in Thailand and Hong Kong.
The Labuan IBFC Roadshow 2016 aims to target business owners in the region looking to internationalise or regionalise their businesses by offering Labuan IBFC’s diverse products and services in a regulated yet cost-efficient and business-friendly environment.
Themed ‘A Natural Choice for Growing ASEAN Businesses and Private Clients’, the event on Friday consisted of presentations on “What are International Business and Financial Centres: An Introduction to Labuan IBFC” by Danial and “Going Regional: Opportunities for Asian Companies” by executive director of PricewaterhouseCoopers Taxation Services in Malaysia, Jennifer Chang.
A panel discussion on “How can Asian Home Grown Businesses and Families Develop into Regional Powerhouses?” was also held during the event.

Base your sales and marketing recruitment plans on your business needs. Think about what you are trying to achieve in terms of sales and customer service. Look at your plans for entering new markets or boosting sales. Assess any marketing weaknesses and areas of underperformance. Consider alternatives to recruitment, such as outsourcing marketing projects or training existing employees.
Sales recruitment often focuses on recruiting salespeople to bring in new customers, but your analysis may well highlight other recruitment needs. Growing businesses often decide to recruit additional marketing skills - for example, in internet or social media marketing - to fill roles that have previously been contracted out to external suppliers. Weaknesses in overall sales and marketing performance may point to the need to recruit expertise rather than expecting junior employees to provide marketing support as part of general administrative duties.
You can use your analysis of your sales and marketing recruitment needs to define the roles you need to fill and the knowledge, skills and attitude you are looking for. For sales recruitment, existing relationships with your target customers may be a prime requirement. Junior sales roles, particularly in areas such as telesales, often demand a positive attitude and a thick skin. In other marketing roles, specific expertise - for example, experience in market research - can be essential. Knowledge of your business sector can also be a major advantage.
Personal contacts, recommendations and networking may help you find suitable sales and marketing candidates. But most recruiters rely on advertising or using recruitment agencies.
Recruitment advertising must reach the right people. National newspapers and websites are an obvious option for sales jobs. Marketing publications or the trade press for your business sector can be a better place to attract specialists. Local publications may suit recruitment ads for relatively low-level jobs. Publications that carry recruitment ads for similar jobs tend to be relatively promising.
Using a recruitment consultancy rather than advertising directly can have advantages. The right recruitment agency will typically have promising candidates on their books - often including individuals who are not actively looking for a job. A good recruitment consultant can also screen applicants for you so that you only interview promising candidates.
The way your job is advertised needs to attract the right candidates. Spelling out essential requirements helps explain the role you are offering and avoid time-wasters.
Even among sales professionals, relatively few enjoy spending most of their time cold calling in pursuit of new business. It's worth stressing any other elements of sales jobs: for example, developing existing relationships and repeat business. The remuneration package can be a key ingredient of the offer; potential applicants can often understand the nature and level of job being offered by looking at the remuneration details.
Look for evidence that candidates can deliver: for example, a record of achievement in previous roles or a relevant marketing qualification. Tests such as role playing a sales scenario or discussing market opportunities can help reveal an applicant's true ability.
Be prepared to sell the job to applicants, highlighting the competitive strengths of your business. Salespeople in particular will want to be convinced about the likely level of sales and commission they can achieve. | 2019-04-20T01:13:41 | https://www.marketingdonut.co.uk/marketing-strategy/marketing-recruitment-and-management/marketing-and-sales-recruitment |

Main features of ABB GIS, like extremely low space requirements and high reliablility, offer smart and economic solutions for complex switchgear applications, e.g. in densely populated areas, for aesthetic town planning or under severe environmental impact.
The first 800 kV GIS was built for the ALPHA installation in ESCOM‘s 800 kV system in South Africa and was handed over to the customer in March 1987.
Critical aspects of GIS design for high rated voltages, such as disconnector switching capabilities, transient overvoltages, insulation coordination, electromagnetic interference fields and electro- magnetic compatibility for secondary systems were carefully studied and solved.
The 800 kV GIS demonstrate well the advantages of GIS technology over air-insulated switchgear by ensuring higher safety for the operating personnel, being less sensitive to environmental factors, and requiring less space for its installation. | 2019-04-25T21:53:58 | https://www.industrysearch.com.au/gas-insulated-switchgear-elk-4-800-gis/p/23365 |

Over at the Wall Street Journal, the incomparable John Fund pops more of Mike Huckabee’s bubbles. He paints the former Arkansas governor as fiscally moderate-to-liberal, a mediocre long-term manager, and as somebody who harmed rather than built his state Republican Party.
But other than that small distinction, I have continued to stand by my story, for the plain reason that the words I used are accurate descriptions of what occurred. I did NOT say, for instance, that Huckabee broke any criminal laws. Instead, I described the actions themselves, actions where the facts have long been established even if the explanation, or interpretation of what they mean, can be in dispute — just as, in the realm of opinion, all sorts of facts can be spun all sorts of different ways. Example: Fact: The weather is partly cloudy right now. Interpretation one: That means it might rain. Interpretation two: It is not raining right now. By analogy, the reporting in my column, though, is of the variety that merely says, yes, there are indeed clouds in the sky. Of that, there can be no dispute.
Unless there is something I am missing, the FACTS as stated in my column remain unchallengeable. And I stand by my contention that there is no need to call a campaign to get explanations when the explanations are already on record, especially because I was there in Little Rock when some of the explanations were offered in the first place and covered them at the time. My column Wednesday dealt entirely with the public record, and provided the links to back it up.
But — and this is the point of this post: Here is a very sincere offer: If the Huckabee campaign will specify to me where my facts — not intepretation, but facts — are wrong, and convince me thereof, I will correct those facts just as quickly as I corrected my self-editing oversight concerning the use of the word “pardon.” I do not want to leave an inaccurate record — and firmly believe that I have not done so. | 2019-04-19T06:35:11 | https://spectator.org/9861_fund-huckabee-plus-offer/ |
Release date: November 19. Number of fans: 60, 000. Collection: Difficult to say. Don't surprise, this is not about any Hollywood movie's success saga. These were the statistics of Drupal 8 web development.
In less than six months of its existence (released on November 19, 2015), the number of Drupal 8 sites has crossed the 60,000 mark. Breaking the figure: 10, 000 websites a month, 2, 500 a week, 333 a day, 14 an hour! The jaw-dropping success story of Drupal 8 pumped so much energy that the community couldn't hold themselves from releasing Drupal 8.1.0 (April 20, 2016) with more enhancements. This success does bring a sense of responsibility on every Drupal web development company and Drupal web developer. The responsibility is to stay up to the expectation of clients, their prospects and customers. However, businesses that are looking forward to hire Drupal web development services must also make a prudent decision. Here, are a few do's and don'ts of Drupal web development.
Increase engagement, generate leads, increase sales, increase upsell or cross-sell, increase conversion rate, improve brand awareness and increase customer satisfaction, you need to inform to your Drupal web development company that what you want to achieve with the Drupal website.
Ask your Drupal web development company to leverage the SEO components available with the framework. This will give the necessary impetus to your website to stay on the top of SERP (Search engine result page). Even if you don't have an in-house SEO team, you can leverage the built-in components with absolute ease to make your site visible to your target audience.
Understanding the growing use of mobile devices make sure to have a responsive website that can connect with users on phones and tablets. Let them have a consistent experience across desktop and mobile platforms transcending the barriers of operating systems.
Before approaching your Drupal web development company, take some time to analyze the website of your competitors and jot down what you liked the best about them. Analyze look and feel, navigation, content placement, image placement and more.
Look and feel of a website is complemented well by the content it holds. Hire copywriters or approach some content development company to get it done for you. Communicate explicitly to them as what products/services you offer, and what USPs (Unique Selling Points) do they have. But don't miss to keep your Drupal web development team in the loop as they are responsible for the presentation part.
Bringing urgency in readers to view your products or services and take a decisive call is a must. This is the first stage of customer acquisition so you should put it precisely after reading the mind's of your target audience. For example, a banner that says "50% off all products", won't be that effective as one with "50% off on all products, CLICK HERE to view them."
A website is the first engagement platform where your prospects and customers come and, hence, let them have the best experience. Even if you know the fundamental of the Drupal website development, then also it's recommended not to take any chance and put your digital engagement model in any jeopardy. The impression should be effective enough to drive them ahead to do business with you, rather than repelling them taking refuge of your competitors. Approach a trusted Drupal web development company.
Let your visitors feel at home when they are on your website. Ask your Drupal web developer to keep the navigation simple and fast to let visitors find what they want without any fuss and delay. Content has a key role in conveying your message to the target audience. Make sure your content writing services provider is capable of doing so without any ambiguity. Seek feedbacks of your friends, family and colleagues. Ask them to judge the website from the user's point of view. Are they able to get the message? If they answer "No," then certainly the website needs a remake.
Knowing that the major chunk of your audience is on social media, adding social share buttons in a haste would just do bad. Unless you have a good social presence, resist from adding social buttons on your website as this might give a bad impression to them. Hence, if you are planning to do so, build a good reputation on social platforms first, particularly, where your target audience or customers are.
Going to ask your Drupal web development team to have a blog section? Wait. Make sure that you have time or resources to keep it updated on regular basis. Doing it merely for the sake of having it would do no favor. As outdated blogs build a wrong perception in the users? mind.
Don't let your target audience go out of your vision. Just for the sake of getting website traffic building a website to please every user or user segment would deviate you from achieving the goals. Make sure your website is built explicitly on the needs and preferences of your target audience.
Using fake or forged testimonials will only erode the trust of your prospects or customers. Use testimonials that sound real and specific to what you do, and in which readers can find themselves as potential customers.
We have covered some important aspects, but that doesn't mean there is nothing beyond its periphery. Remember, WWW is a place where change is the only constant. Keep reading the analytics of your website to know more what your prospects and customers want. Drupal 8 has everything to meet your needs and let you overcome challenges. Connect with us on Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn to know more on Drupal 8 web development.

Hand-made MLP Beanie plushies leftover SALE!
Sorry for disappearing after announcing that I was a vendor at Galacon 2014. I was really busy sewing. In the end I managed to sew 100 plushies.
Unfortunately, at Galacon 2014 there were a lot of other plushie makers and since our vendor table was located at the first floor at the rear end of the room, we've had a pretty bad location for selling plushies.
Nonetheless I'm still amazed that I managed to sell around 60 plushies!
On the other hand that means I've still got 40 plushies as leftover. Since I need space for making new creations, I'd be happy to sell them to people who are interested in my plushies, but either didn't get the chance to go to Galacon or didn't have enough money at the moment.
Please keep in mind that this journal is still a work-in-progress, as I have yet to upload more detailed pictures of the plushies I have left. If you can't wait for me to upload pictures of a certain plush, please write me a message and I'll quickly upload the one in question first.
Prices change according to how many plushies you buy!
Shipping expenses are 6€ for people living in Austria, 13€ if you live in Germany.
If you plan on buying more than three plushies, please write me a message to discuss the price.
If you are interested in buying plushies, please fill in the order form and send it as private message.
I ship to Canada, too!
How much would your plushies be in American Dollars? If it's cheep, could I mail the money to you instad of using PayPal because I can't use my paypal right now.
One Euro is currently 1,1 Dollars, so Beanies are 73US$ for Earth ponies and 79$ for Pegasus ponies.
Mailing the money is pretty inconvenient for me, since I can't use dollars in my country. I'd have to exchange them first and pay a high exchange fee... But I'm on holiday until the end of September anyway, so you might be able to use your PayPal by then again!
Well ok. When I'm 18 and if my PayPal is active with money, you will be the first person I will go to for a plush pony. | 2019-04-26T03:57:54 | https://www.deviantart.com/wolflessnight |

TIP! Above your blog posts, place a share button for Facebook. When someone visits your blog, they can easily share material they like with other people via social media.
What to do in the world of social media marketing can be hazy. In essence, it is your responsibility to post quality media to get that traffic you need. It may be tempting to simply flood your sites with useless content, but it is far better to take the time necessary to establish a credible brand. To successfully market with social media, understand your audience and utilize the advice discussed in the following paragraphs.
TIP! In order to achieve the best possible results, create links to tie everything together. Be sure your blog has easy to see links to your Facebook page, your YouTube videos and Twitter.
Produce new blog entries often and at regular intervals. With fresh and relevant content people will keep eagerly checking back in. It’s the same concept that is used by publishers of printed magazines and newspapers. Ensure that you are constantly asking people to return to your profile.
TIP! Allow customers to rate, comment and sort your items. Doing this will help to create a sense of belonging for your readers, increasing their sense of loyalty.
If Twitter is one of the components of your social media marketing plan, come up with tweets that are detailed and discuss different things. Offer advice and suggestions of interest to your customers via Twitter. Sprinkling these tweets in among blatantly promotional ones will keep your readers more interested in what you have to say.
TIP! It is necessary to keep in mind that social media requires you to remain active. It is critical to remain social if you intend to achieve success.
TIP! Combine social media and email marketing. When you send out a marketing email, be sure to include links to your Facebook and Twitter pages at the end of the email.
Your online storefront can become easier for your customers to use with effective social media tie-ins. Design a store on Facebook which can be readily accessed through your posts, as an addition to your independent site. This makes it possible to browse your inventory and make purchases right inside Facebook, and this is a feature that frequent users of the service will appreciate. Using this method you can allow them to stay on Facebook, which many of them would prefer.
TIP! If you upload video to YouTube, take advantage of the description field. Include links to your website, and an option to share the video on the most popular social networking sites.
For your business to succeed, you need to understand how to market with social media. When you get instant updates from customers online, but you have to maintain focus so that your business continues to profit. An excellent way to start your journey is by using the above information. | 2019-04-18T21:20:09 | https://www.asmussenmedia.dk/social-media-marketing-tips-that-may-suprise-you/ |

The EU will shortly publish a tax haven blacklist, part of a strategy to deal with the issue of global tax avoidance and evasion. The charity Oxfam has its doubts though, and has published a list of its own. No one wants their name to be on a list of noted undesirables, whether it’s for entry to a club or something else entirely.
That’s why, since the EU commission announced plans earlier this month to publish a tax haven blacklist in the wake of the Paradise Papers leaks, several governments have been scrambling to avoid what could be a damaging and embarrassing naming and shaming, DW reported.
Yet, there are those who think the final list—which is expected to be confirmed and released after being approved by EU finance ministers in early December—will be toothless as a result of political pressure.
Among the doubters is Oxfam. In a report published on Tuesday, the global charity confederation has assessed the tax collecting credentials of the 92 countries currently being assessed by the EU, as well as all 28 EU member states, which are not part of the EU’s review.
Claiming to use the same criteria as the EU, namely the examination of countries’ tax transparency systems and tax rates, the Oxfam report claims that a proper blacklist would have four EU member states—Ireland, Luxembourg, Malta and the Netherlands—on it.
Out of the 92 non-EU countries and territories being assessed, Oxfam believes 35 of them should be included on the final EU blacklist. Among that number are several European countries, such as Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Montenegro, Switzerland and Serbia.
It also includes Gibraltar, a British overseas territory located on the southern end of the Iberian Peninsula which is in fact, in the EU.
“We expect the countries identified by us to appear on the actual list,” said Tobias Hauschild, one of Oxfam’s tax experts.
As well as being critical of the EU’s decision to exclude its own member states from assessment, Oxfam is especially critical of the policies of Bermuda, the Bahamas and the Cayman Islands. Its report also calls for heavy sanctions and punitive measures against any countries named on the final blacklist. | 2019-04-25T08:34:10 | https://financialtribune.com/articles/world-economy/76975/oxfam-wants-proper-eu-action-on-tax-havens |

For 2018, the standard deduction is $12,000 for singles, $18,000 for heads of households, and $24,000 for married couples filing jointly. Your total itemized deductions must exceed the applicable standard deduction for you to enjoy a tax benefit from donating artwork.
Finally, please note that, if you own both the work of art and the copyright to the work, you must assign the copyright to the charity to qualify for a charitable deduction.
Donating artwork is a great way to share enjoyment of the work with others. But to reap the maximum tax benefit as well, you must plan your gift carefully and follow all of the applicable rules.

.. he Sussex, a French channel streamer was sunk, killing 80 civilians, some American, Wilson declared that if these attacks did not stop “the United States would have no choice but to sever diplomatic relations”5 with Germany. In the end not even Woodrow Wilson could keep the United States out of World War I. When the Germans declared unlimited submarine warfare, Wilson knew the United States would have to get involved. Still he hesitated, hoping for some event that would make an American declaration of war unnecessary. Instead two events occurred destroying all hopes of neutrality.
The first was the Zimmerman telegram. This was a message intercepted by Britain proposing a secret alliance between Germany and Mexico. The next event that pushed the US into the war was the Russian Revolution, in which Russia withdrew from the war, this meant the Allies lost a major part of their team, and without the United States, Germany would have surely won. In April 1917 Wilson asked Congress to declare war on Germany. He appointed able men to mobilize the economy and to command the armed forces, never interfering with either. By September 1918 Germanys army was in retreat, its civilians hungry and exhausted.
Wilsons’ real heart was in peace. He insisted on going to the Paris Peace conference himself, where he was greeted by European crowds cheering wildly. He and three other men, known as the Big Four, including Premier Vittorio Orlando of Italy, Prime Minister David Lloyd George of Britain, and Premier Georges Clemenceau of France drew up the Treaty of Versailles, based on Wilsons Fourteen Point address. Aspirations of world order were represented in his Fourteen Points: Open diplomacy, freedom of the seas, the removal of economic barriers among nations, reductions of armaments, the ending of imperialism, self-determination for national groups, the inclusion of Russia in the world community, and, most important to Wilson, the creation of an association of nations to assume collective responsibility for maintaining peace (the League of Nations). Wilson passionately wanted his Fourteen Points implemented, he wanted a treaty that would be fair to fallen enemy as well as to the victors.
After many compromises, the Treaty of Versailles was signed, including Wilsons League of Nations. Wilson formally got approval for his League of Nations, but when he returned home with the treaty, he found resistance to him and it. A group of senators refused to accept the treaty as a package, as Wilson demanded. Frustrated, Wilson decided to appeal over the senators heads to the country. He set out on a tour that took him through 30 cities in 24 days, this grueling schedule caused him to he suffer two strokes, the second one leaving his left side paralyzed.
For the next few weeks Wilson was near death, nobody was allowed to see him except for his wife who would carry messages to his bedroom and then emerge with an answer. When his mind finally cleared he was presented with Senator Lodge’s proposed fourteen reservations to his fourteen points. The treaty was rejected because neither Wilson nor Lodge was willing to compromise. Although Wilson was partially paralyzed by the stroke and suffering from other disabilities, he wanted the honor of a third nomination. If he had received it, he may have ran again, so great was his devotion to the League of Nations, which was created without the participation of the United States. The League never took off without the support of the United States behind it.
Wilsons political leadership experience was limited to his two year stint as governor of New Jersey. Nevertheless, he had no doubts about his ability to lead the nation, as he said in his inaugural address, “I summon all honest men, all patriotic, all forward looking men to my side God helping me I will not fail them, if they will but counsel and sustain me!”6 Part of his effective leadership ability, was that Wilson knew how to dramatize issues and to capture public attention. He did not think average citizens were qualified to lead. The leaders task was partly to sense the wishes of the people, but it was also to shape their ideas and to act where they would not naturally act. The Presidents leadership of his party gave him more influence over Congress, but more importantly his standing as the interpreter of the countries instinctive wishes and desires made him a unique national figure. He was the first president since Thomas Jefferson to address Congress personally, which he did several times.
The president, in Wilsons view, thus had extraordinary potential powers attained from his role as political leader and interpreter of the wishes of all people. In contrast to what the people had expected when they chose Wilson as the democratic nominee, he had proved that he could be a leader and that state government could meet the challenges facing it. His academic work had shown that he was not a profound thinker, but he had a rare ability to see the essentials of issues and to delegate authority to others to handle details. While considering issues he was open-minded and eager for practical suggestions about how to achieve a goal, and once he had made up his mind he was firm and consistent. Wilson adopted an approach to Congress that proved remarkably effective. He outlined the main objectives he wanted to achieve and left legislatures to draft special bills.
He made use of public opinion to influence the legislative process by going personally to the capitol to address Congress and by making other public speeches. The significance of the Underwood tariff is debatable but the skill and flexibility Wilson showed in getting it through Congress were not. If one of his reforms stalled in Congress, he would generate pressure on the lawmakers to act by calling public attention to the delay. Through Wilsons aggressive leadership, his administration was responsible for four constitutional amendments. The eighteenth amendment, prohibiting the sales of alcoholic beverages, was controversial because many leading brewers were German, and this made the drive against alcohol all the more popular.
However, the main cause was to conserve the food supplies for the war effort. One of his greatest strengths as a leader was his ability to focus on a single issue, identifying its essential points and dealing with it quickly and efficiently. Although the eighteenth amendment was eventually repealed by the twenty-first amendment it was what the country need at the time and was effective in that sense. Wilson thought that it was the presidents’ job to understand the hopes and dreams of America, which he believed were centered on a peaceful, secure world. Establishing his Fourteen Points, and the League of Nations in particular, was Wilsons method of keeping world peace. In his address, point number fourteen, was “an international organization that Wilson hoped would provide a system of collective security.”7 Wilson earnestly wanted this to guarantee the political independence of all countries, big or small. During the first year of peace, Wilson focused on the treaty fight.
Wilsons diplomatic leadership was strong, keeping the United States out of the Great War and helping in the peace effort afterwards, and he stuck with it, trying to pass legislation that would not only benefit the United States, but the whole world as well. Wilson, far more than any other world leader of his generation raised issues that needed to be confronted and set an agenda for future domestic and international policies. The Underwood Tariff shows successful domestic policy because it inacted a favorable low tariff, in which the United States was open to compete. It also showed mastery in leadership in the course that he used pushing it through Congress. Although his administration is often associated with World War I, Wilson sought world peace with his League of Nations.
Faced with decisions and appointments and foreign conflicts, Wilson was admittedly ill-prepared. Because of his concentration on world peace he did not recognize hostility when it was aimed toward the US Wilson, with a high sense of duty and destiny, administered a heady dose of domestic reform, in his New Freedom progressive legislation; and foreign intervention, in the League of Nations. Through his strong leadership, both domestically and diplomatically, the nation came out stronger than it was before. Wilson tried to apply his own moral standards to international politics, he was convinced that the president should be the people’s leader, not merely the nations’ chief executive.

If the term ‘Whey Protein’ is mentioned before bodybuilders, most of them, if not all, will understand what it is. The truth that it is a favorite of bodybuilders spells something interesting about it. The truth is that bodybuilders and everyone else requires a certain amount of protein in their bodies for healthy functioning. However, since it sometimes becomes impossible to acquire all the necessary protein quantity from food: Whey Protein comes in as an effective supplement.
It is the watery by-product produced when milk is processed during the making of cheese. This by-product is rich in protein, and that explains its use as a protein supplement.
Whey Protein comes in handy in managing weight because it is a high-protein product that is low in calories. In short, a person does not have to consume many calories while aiming for more protein. It helps in reducing weight by making a person feel full for long thus losing more fat while retaining muscle.
Proteins contain the building blocks that are necessary for muscle development and growth. As such, consuming it gives one faster and better development of muscles. This explains why it is common with bodybuilders.
The fact that consuming enough protein maintains healthy muscles means that as one ages, they do not lose muscle fast. Persons that consume the right amount of proteins throughout their lives tend to age slower than those with protein deficiency.
Proteins help in protecting the body by strengthening the immune system. As such, consuming Whey Protein benefits the body by promoting strongprotection against illnesses while maintaining the health of active people.
The above benefits explain why bodybuilders treasure Whey Protein. As the details suggest, it is not a preserve of the muscle-builders only as everyone can gain in some way from consuming them. | 2019-04-21T06:30:53 | https://amazecraze.com/what-is-whey-protein/ |

The number of health and fitness apps and devices has exploded in recent years. These technologies offer the user assistance in achieving a healthier lifestyle by offering personalised guidance or helping the user track any progress made. To complete these tasks, the apps collect a vast amount of information from the user, including heart rate, sleeping patterns, weight, food consumption, and even GPS location. Despite the potentially sensitive nature of the data these apps collect, there is very little transparency between consumers and these tech companies as to how the companies use the data and with whom it is shared.
The data collected by these apps have a high market value. Therefore, it is no surprise that companies behind these fitness devices and apps often sell the data to third parties, making a considerable profit from the practice. There is very little information publicly available about the details of these transactions. Consumers have become increasingly concerned as to how their data is used. As such, questions are now being asked about the data privacy practices of the booming healthcare application and device industry.
The BMJ recently published a study investigating the data privacy practices of these companies. The study revealed that nearly 80% of the apps studied (19 of the 24 apps) shared user data with third-parties.
The study investigated apps related to dispensing, administration, prescribing or use of medicines. For each app, the researchers ran dummy scripts to simulate the real world.
The researchers found that user data was shared with 55 different entities, from 46 parent companies. These companies either received or processed the data. Those entities included app developers, parent companies, and third-party service providers. Two-thirds of third-parties provided services related to the collection or analysis of data, including analytics and advertising. The remaining third provided infrastructure-related services.
The majority of apps (71%) transmitted user data to locations outside of the app. This information included the name of the device, the operating system, the user’s email address, and browsing activities on the device. Some of the apps transmitted even more sensitive information, such as the user’s drug list and location.
When considered on its own, most of the data is not particularly sensitive, such as the Android ID or device name. However, if the information were aggregated and considered altogether, it is possible that a third-party could identify the individual user to which it pertained. Several companies within the network could aggregate and re-identify user data.
The researchers detected 104 transmissions to entities external to the app, 94% of which were encrypted and 6% were sent in cleartext. The researchers discovered that 13% of tested apps leaked at least some user data in cleartext.
The researchers performed a network analysis which revealed that first and third parties received a median of three unique transmissions of user data and third parties were discovered to advertise the ability to share user data with an additional 216 fourth-parties. | 2019-04-23T06:28:16 | https://www.calhipaa.com/bmj-report-transparency-fitness-apps-user-data/ |
When it comes to ground training, nothing can beat a rope halter. Traditionally made of one long piece of rope, these streamlined halters help you to communicate with your horse efficiently and effectively.
We carry a wide assortment of rope halters from trusted brands like Double Diamond, Horze, Professional's Choice, Tough-1, and Weaver Leather. The rope halter provides ample amounts of pressure on the poll and nose area when the lead rope is used. If properly fit, the pressure will release immediately after you release the lead rope, giving your horse a clear reward signal. The pressure and relief that the halters provide allows you to provide positive reinforcement that your horse understands.
Rope Halters are often used by natural horsemanship clinicians as well as experienced groundwork trainers. The Stacy Westfall Rope Halter, Professional's Choice Clinician Rope Halter, and the Double Diamond Mike Major Halter have all been developed specifically for training and influencing your horse. They are great picks for young horses, green horses, or horses with difficult demeanors.
Some of the halters that we carry even come with a matching lead. For more bang for buck, check out the Professional's Choice Rope Halter with Lead or the Weaver Diamond Braid Rope Halter and Lead. The Professional's Choice Beaded Rope Halter and Lead adds additional flair with a gorgeous beaded noseband that is sure to complement your horse’s head while setting them apart from the herd.
While rope halters are highly versatile and can be used for training, leading, tying, even riding, we do not recommend them for unsupervised activities such as turnout and trailering.
Our experienced sales associates are always available to answer any questions you may have about purchasing or using a rope halter. | 2019-04-24T12:24:25 | https://www.cheshirehorse.com/tack/halters-leads/rope-halters |

A few months ago, Carmel Bond, founder of the Melbourne EA Group (MEAG) reached out to me after seeing my blog. Turns out we both work for real estate companies, just on opposite sides of the world! This is what is so cool about my career – EAs/PAs/Executive Secretaries/Chiefs of Staff/Coordinators of Chaos are so willing to connect and share, are so passionate about teaching other how to be successful in this role, and most importantly, so quick to support each other in this exciting, challenging, and often crazy world we’ve chosen to live and work in.
This week I had the privilege of being the featured guest on the Melbourne EA Group blog. Check it out and while you’re there take a look at the amazing work Carmel and her team are doing to support, teach, and inspire their fellow Executive Assistants.
Here’s another example of the power of the Executive Assistant network around the world. About three years ago I attend an amazing conference in NYC – Behind Every Leader. I felt like I had finally found my people and was in total awe of the presenters – all either current or former EAs to the greats like Jeff Bezos, Eric Schmidt, Mark Zuckerberg, JFK Jr, Nate Berkus, and Magic Johnson. I remember emailing my Exec, Adam, after the first day and telling him how amazing it was and how much I loved my career as an Executive Assistant. And he told me that one day I would be on that stage. Little did I know one day would come so soon!
Fast forward to sometime last year when Victoria Rabin, CEO and Founder of Executive Assistants Organization, which hosts Behind Every Leader, saw Adam’s blog about strategic partnerships and connected with us about speaking at Behind Every Leader this year in Washington DC and NYC. Circle complete. Victoria is a consummate badass and a huge advocate for the EA/Exec strategic partnership. I am honored to be a part of anything she’s doing and I hope I can inspire just one EA like those amazing individuals did for me several years ago.
Want to learn more about Behind Every Leader? Check out my interview with Victoria and Adam as we gear up for Behind Every Leader in DC in April.
Your turn! Share where you are from, one of your recent successes, and one of your current challenges in the comments. Together, we can all elevate our careers and master the art of leading and assisting. | 2019-04-25T13:51:34 | https://leadandassist.com/blog/page/2/ |
EyeStalker is available as an AppImage which means "one app = one file", which you can download and run on your Linux system while you don't need a package manager and nothing gets changed in your system. Awesome!
If you want to restrict what EyeStalker can do on your system, you can run the AppImage in a sandbox like Firejail. This is entirely optional and currently needs to be configured by the user.
If you would like to update to a new version, simply download the new EyeStalker AppImage.
If you would like to have the executable bit set automatically, and would like to see EyeStalker and other AppImages integrated into the system (menus, icons, file type associations, etc.), then you may want to check the optional appimaged daemon.
Thanks for distributing EyeStalker in the AppImage format for all common Linux distributions. Great! Here are some ideas on how to make it even better.
Please consider to add update information to the EyeStalker AppImage and ship a .zsync file so that it can be updated using AppImageUpdate. Tools like appimagetool and linuxdeployqt can do this for you easily.
The screenshot for EyeStalker has been automatically taken during a fully automated test. You can specify the URL to a nicer one by shipping an AppStream metainfo file. | 2019-04-18T11:26:42 | https://appimage.github.io/EyeStalker/ |

"Cured" by circumcision, as sleep in the eyes would be cured by beheading. Truth About Circumcision. Study No. Circumcision is a very important subject in the Bible. There is much ignorance on this subject today, so it behooves us to examine what the Bible says about circumcision.
With circumcision having assumed a distinctly Jewish connotation, it became grounds for anti-Semitic discrimination. History is littered with examples, such as the Seleucid King Antiochus, occupying Jerusalem in BC, who made the Brit Peri’ah punishable by death. The Roman author Suetonius records court proceedings, wherein a 90 year old man, suspected of evading the Fiscus Judaicus, or.
Circumcision is Not Medically Necessary. Did you know America is the only Western nation to implement mass infant circumcision? What does that tell you about the necessity of the procedure? Only 2% of males in the world today are circumcised (9/10th of those being in America.) In Douglas Gairdner recognized the lack of medical justification for circumcision, which led to the elimination. Circumcision is a hotly debated issue and an important one to discus.

Sun-dried, coarsely ground Eastern Mediterranean chile peppers--Aleppo, Marash, and Urfa--have complex flavor and are less spicy than supermarket-variety chile flakes. In the Sunset Test Kitchen, we love to sprinkle them on roasted chicken and potatoes, avocado toast, green salads, pizza, and especially scrambled eggs.
Annie Somerville of Greens Restaurant, in San Francisco, shares her campground breakfast favorite. She likes it so much that she added it to the restaurant menu and it has become a Greens brunch staple. This spicy dish is welcome at home or in camp.
Don’t let the name throw you off. It’s just devilishly delicious with a nice hot little kick. This has long been a favorite of college students and visitors to the Big Sky Café in San Luis Obispo, California.
We love this technique for soft, creamy scrambled eggs. Full-flavored cheeses and a touch of crème fraiche, and a distinctive Meyer lemon salsa verde make this an egg dish you’ll return to over and over. You’ll find lots of uses for any leftover salsa verde.

Master’s School children show off their henna designs (on hands for the girls and paper for the boys) that they made with the Living Stones team. The team shared the Gospel story through henna with the children.
Recently a Short Term Missions team from Living Stones Church in Reno, Nevada traveled to our campus in Vizag to serve the church planters, college students and children involved in our ministries. I asked one of the members on the trip, Carli, to share her thoughts and impressions of her time in India.
Happy girls with henna on their hands!
Hanging out with the kids and hearing them sing songs about Jesus, and light up when we did the story of Gospel in henna on their hands was hands down the most joyful part of the trip. Those kids were so loving and welcoming to us, along with the entire staff. The whole experience was joyful because you know that God has called each and every one of those kids intentionally to Master’s School. I can’t wait to hear about the work he does through each child there.
The most concerning, and emotional part of the trip for me was hearing all of Arjuna’s stories about the children who live in the boys home, and where they came from. It was evident that God filled and is filling a very big need for a loving father to be in the lives of these kids who are coming from such broken households. The concerning part was that I can see that the need is definitely big. The emotional part is that I can see the ways God is using Arjuna to point these kids to Jesus. Then after hearing the stories, actually interacting with the children, makes it that much more impactful because you see the joy and hope in their eyes.
When we went in to the kindergarten classroom to teach the Gospel through Henna, the most adorable thing was having the kids listen to our play, and seeing them interact with us! They were so excited for us to be there, and couldn’t wait to get henna or draw henna with us. I remember one day as soon as school was out and they all loaded up on the bus to go home, all of them stuck their heads and hands out of the window and yelled “Bye” to us as they were frantically waving. So adorable.
Good times at Master’s School.
I had been to Guatemala twice in the last couple of years before going to India. Because of this, it was really familiar for me to see the poverty level in the inner city, as well as some things that we Americans are not used to. I actually felt very comfortable when I got there, because I had known what to expect in regards to city living.
I felt adventurous in India as I was exploring the city on days that we went shopping, and also every time I sat down for a meal! The food there is so completely different form the food I am used to, and the tastes were completely new to me! The oat adventurous thing I did was try all of the new foods.
The mountains of India were the most beautiful thing! So many people told me so many things about India before I went, but no one told me how beautiful it was. I was in awe at the miles and miles of beautiful green mountains.
When we went to the church on the first day we were there, the people were welcoming us with open arms. They were getting our autographs and taking our pictures and giving us cold sodas and pulling up chairs for us. It felt like we were someone famous! But honestly, I feel like they were honored for us to be there, just as we were honored to be invited. Their hospitality truly made me feel a part of their family and made me second guess how I treat new people who come in to my home church.

My mission to do better than mid-table obscurity.
707.5 kgs @ 97kgs Eq very quick squat session. speed work, up 170 for 3 sets of 2.
707.5 kgs @ 97kgs Eq unfortunately just another quick session. deadlifting this time. all went well though, finally got equipment sorted for this though. will wear the metal deadlift suit but with the lighter zulu glove belt. big relief to actually get it sorted!
70x5, 120x3, 160x1, 200x1, 220x1, 232.5x1. all relatively easy.
707.5 kgs @ 97kgs Eq f**king work and a cold have left me exhausted. s**t preparation and i'm really not expecting much from this at all.
707.5 kgs @ 97kgs Eq ok, so despite my s**t prep this went really well for me!
bench: 137.5, 145, 150 Fail. got out of the grove of the shirt and ended up pressing it into the rack, gggrrr!
the deadlift hits the 'A standard' for qualification so means i can deadlift at the europeans next year. absolutely delighted with this.
not sure i would have given it on depth but 3 international standard refs gave it so its good enough for the day.
707.5 kgs @ 97kgs Eq best bench 145kg. really wanted more on this as had hit 155 recently with no problems and my comp bench has been stuck under 150kg for too long now. next time.
707.5 kgs @ 97kgs Eq best deadlift 245kg(PB).
really happy to hit the qualifying target which was always my goal for this comp. looking at this and the squat though, the speed would suggest i had a good bit more in me?
707.5 kgs @ 97kgs Eq still mid table obscurity but at least that's at a national level now rather than regional!
the comp itself was great, the best one ive been to by a mile. 3 monolifts, benches and platforms in the warm up area. the GPC welsh open was also really well run. starting to feel at home here. not really thought about what now comp wise, i will go to the europeans next june but have nothing else planned in between as of yet.
707.5 kgs @ 97kgs Eq argh ok, so longer than expected de-load but i needed the rest to be honest. back to training yesterday.

If you’re considering having a little something done, the good news is that you’ll probably end up looking almost a decade younger. However, the not-so-good news is that you won’t necessarily end up feeling any better about yourself. Self-esteem appears to be unconnected to a positive outcome after facelift surgery, according to a study done at New York Center for Facial Plastic and Laser Surgery, New York and published in October 2015 in JAMA Facial Plastic Surgery. Patients felt they looked almost nine years younger but there was no change in self-esteem.
A release from the publisher notes that facelift surgery can restore the appearance of youth to an aging face. As with all cosmetic surgery, psychosocial factors weigh heavily in both the decision to have surgery as well as defining the outcomes of the procedure. With the number of facelift procedures steadily increasing by nearly 30 percent since 1997, it is increasingly important to understand the psychosocial effects of this popular procedure.
Andrew Jacono, M.D. and coauthors of the study used a self-esteem scale to look at the outcome of facelift surgery as perceived by the patient to understand the association between self-esteem and the results of aesthetic facial rejuvenation.
The study included 59 patients undergoing facelift surgery from July through October 2013. Of the 59 patients, 50 completed the six-month post-operative questionnaire. All but two of the patients were women. The average age of the participants was 58.
Patients with low self-esteem had a statistically significant increase in self-esteem scores after surgery, while those with high preoperative self-esteem showed a statistically significant decrease in self-esteem scores. The group with average preoperative self-esteem showed a nonsignificant increase six months after surgery, according to the results. However, the overall difference between the average preoperative and postoperative self-esteem scores was not statistically significant.
While patients felt they looked nearly nine years younger, that perceived change in youthful appearance did not correlate with changes in self-esteem, the authors report.
“These findings underscore the complex nature of the human psyche as it relates to aesthetic surgery and demonstrates that patients exhibit a wide spectrum of psychological reactions after face-lift surgery,” the study concludes. | 2019-04-24T08:02:30 | https://thirdage.com/a-facelift-wont-necessarily-boost-your-self-esteem/ |

Far from being made obsolete by the Internet, authoritarian regimes are now actively shaping cyberspace to their own strategic advantage. This article argues that cyberspace authoritarianism has evolved over at least three generations of information controls. Moreover, authoritarians have developed an arsenal that extends from technical measures, laws, policies, and regulations, to more covert and offensive techniques, such as targeted malware attacks and campaigns to coopt social media. The article outlines the driving forces behind resurgent authoritarianism in cyberspace and questions what can be done to counter the tightening grip of authoritarians on cyberspace. | 2019-04-20T16:45:31 | https://muse.jhu.edu/article/586479 |

"Isn't there a limit on how many times we raise the debt limit?"
just something to think about as we set out, today, pondering the thoughts and posture of a president.
"From our first days as a nation, we have put our faith in free markets and free enterprise as the engine of America's wealth and prosperity. More than citizens of any other country, we are rugged individualists, a self-reliant people with a healthy skepticism of too much government.
But there has always been another thread running throughout our history - a belief that we are all connected; and that there are some things we can only do together, as a nation."
"For much of the last century, our nation found a way to afford these investments and priorities with the taxes paid by its citizens. As a country that values fairness, wealthier individuals have traditionally born a greater share of this burden than the middle class or those less fortunate. This is not because we begrudge those who've done well - we rightly celebrate their success. Rather, it is a basic reflection of our belief that those who have benefited most from our way of life can afford to give a bit more back."
So all things being fair now, "as a country that values fairness," the "wealthier individuals have traditionally born a greater share of this burden" -- giving us a moment when our president truly values tradition. And not done, he makes the assertion... well, it's the price to pay for being the ones who have "benefited most from our way of life." Which is it, Mr. President, do we teach our children to be self-reliant and prosper, or do we teach them that when they do (rest on their own self-reliance, create prosperity, and share it, ultimately, of their own free will) be prepared to give more of that fair share, cause that's only fair? Where do you preserve and support the genuine motivation and benefits anchored by tradition steeped in self-reliance?
"...we lost our way in the decade that followed. We increased spending dramatically for two wars and an expensive prescription drug program - but we didn't pay for any of this new spending. Instead, we made the problem worse with trillions of dollars in unpaid-for tax cuts - tax cuts that went to every millionaire and billionaire in the country; tax cuts that will force us to borrow an average of $500 billion every year over the next decade"
Thanks for the drone hit, Mr. President...indeed, because we have sooooooooooo many millionaires and billionaires running around -- and don't you just love how the two are always put together, like, what's the difference? It's all the same thing. They are crooks getting away with murder, while women and children are dying out there. You forgot to point out, that in the last ten years, our government's annual expenditures have ballooned from 1.8 Trillion in 2000 to 3.4 Trillion by 2010. While the last three years, under your presidency -- bearing in mind that for this year alone, the CBO projects a 1.6 Trillion dollar deficit -- the national debt has gone from 10 Trillion to 14 Trillion.
We are adding to the population of retirees everyday now. Baby Boomers are no longer booming. The annual revenue from our current bunch of yahoos no longer supports the 60% of the Federal Budget that currently pays the bills for retirement benefits, as well as a host of miscellaneous entitlements we'll just stipulate for "the poor." If you add the payment for just our debt service to the bottom line and do the math, only about 10% of our "revenue" is left for discretionary spending. That's it. Yes, they say you are brilliant, BUT let me remind you, it will never work out the way it does in your head, Mr. President, for your numbers do not add up...3.7 out with 2.6 in, equals a 1.1 deficit. simple simon.
"And so, by the time I took office, we once again found ourselves deeply in debt and unprepared for a Baby Boom retirement that is now starting to take place. When I took office, our projected deficit was more than $1 trillion. On top of that, we faced a terrible financial crisis and a recession that, like most recessions, led us to temporarily borrow even more. In this case, we took a series of emergency steps that saved millions of jobs, kept credit flowing, and provided working families extra money in their pockets. It was the right thing to do, but these steps were expensive, and added to our deficits in the short term.
So that's how our fiscal challenge was created. This is how we got here."
"We have to live within our means, reduce our deficit, and get back on a path that will allow us to pay down our debt."
"By the end of this decade, the interest we owe on our debt could rise to nearly $1 trillion. Just the interest payments"
"Most of us, regardless of party affiliation, believe that we should have a strong military and a strong defense."
Should? Most of us, those of us who respect America's Constitution, recognize that a strong military isn't just an option on the table -- it is paramount to our nation's security, mandated by our forefathers, and considered non-negotiable by we the people. It isn't lumped in somewhere between food stamps and early retirement benefits. just fyi.
Getting to a bottom, bottom line, "Those are both worthy goals for us to achieve. But the way this plan achieves those goals would lead to a fundamentally different America than the one we've known throughout most of our history."
hmmm where have I heard that before?
"A 70% cut to clean energy. A 25% cut in education. A 30% cut in transportation. Cuts in college Pell Grants that will grow to more than $1,000 per year. That's what they're proposing. These aren't the kind of cuts you make when you're trying to get rid of some waste or find extra savings in the budget. These aren't the kind of cuts that Republicans and Democrats on the Fiscal Commission proposed. These are the kind of cuts that tell us we can't afford the America we believe in. And they paint a vision of our future that's deeply pessimistic."
and then he simply goes off -- throwing everything on the wall -- a game of paint ball has got nothing on how he proceeded to riddle the right with attacks left, right and up the middle. Bridges collapsing, no college education, grandma literally getting thrown under the bus...not pretty. not even the truth. it's just what radicals do.
and partisan politics in Washington lives on to see another ugly day.
"Worst of all, this is a vision that says even though America can't afford to invest in education or clean energy; even though we can't afford to care for seniors and poor children, we can somehow afford more than $1 trillion in new tax breaks for the wealthy. Think about it."
no, you think about it. think about what you say, Mr. President. this is acting presidential? this is statesmanship? this is meeting in the middle? these are words from a leader for all Americans? this is how low you want to go?
"The America I know is generous and compassionate; a land of opportunity and optimism. We take responsibility for ourselves and each other; for the country we want and the future we share. We are the nation that built a railroad across a continent and brought light to communities shrouded in darkness. We sent a generation to college on the GI bill and saved millions of seniors from poverty with Social Security and Medicare. We have led the world in scientific research and technological breakthroughs that have transformed millions of lives.
This is who we are. This is the America I know. We don't have to choose between a future of spiraling debt and one where we forfeit investments in our people and our country. To meet our fiscal challenge, we will need to make reforms. We will all need to make sacrifices. But we do not have to sacrifice the America we believe in. And as long as I'm President, we won't."
doink, der it is... the walking contradiction reigns supreme again. halleluja.
"If, by 2014, our debt is not projected to fall as a share of the economy - or if Congress has failed to act - my plan will require us to come together and make up the additional savings with more spending cuts and more spending reductions in the tax code."
"require us to come together" What is he not saying here? Is he purposely planning on stripping Congress of their powers -- specifically, as it pertains to regulating taxation?
But no matter what we argue or where we stand, we've always held certain beliefs as Americans. We believe that in order to preserve our own freedoms and pursue our own happiness, we can't just think about ourselves. We have to think about the country that made those liberties possible. We have to think about our fellow citizens with whom we share a community. And we have to think about what's required to preserve the American Dream for future generations..
This sense of responsibility - to each other and to our country - this isn't a partisan feeling. It isn't a Democratic or Republican idea. It's patriotism."
You can take the organizer out of the community, but you can't take the community out of the organizer.
All in all, for nearly the entire 45 minutes, you pretty much pounce all over the right, one way or another, even injecting class warfare as a main theme; and yet, you still believe you can end on a high note...you sir, must think you are a pretty big deal to think you can really get away with that.
We are a country based on individual freedoms, individual liberties, with individual dreams putting individual self-reliance to the test; we are not endowed by our government, but by our Maker. Sure, collectively, you have it right, in part -- it does make us the strongest, free-est, rich-est, kind-est nation in the world -- and it has everything and nothing to do with the "millionaires and billionaires" and everything and nothing to do with the collective. think about it.

Equipping parents for spiritual conversations with their kids is one of the most important things we can do in kids ministry. Easter weekend is particularly a great time for this.
In the kidmin world, Easter weekend prep starts in February. We spend a great deal of time and energy making sure we have the volunteer schedule stocked, curriculum is ready to go, materials are purchased and environments are pristine in preparation for the mass of kids and families. It’s a weekend where we take more care than normal to ensure the message taught is that much more compelling.
Knowing it’s a key opportunity to capture families that have never been to our church (or retain the ones that haven’t returned since Christmas!) the need to make sure every detail is in place is critical. But one item I’ve missed in the past is equipping parents for the aftermath conversations.
Don’t get me wrong. We’ve always had something to put in the child’s hand to serve as a conversation starter. Something that prompts them to talk to mom or dad about what they learned.
But what have I put in the parents hands to help them?
On Easter weekend (just as every other weekend), kids are going to hear the Truth… digest the Truth… and hopefully respond to the Truth. If the message accomplishes what I pray it does, then kids will be processing long after they leave the church.
And if mom or dad is the one most likely to respond to the questions kids have about the gospel then what easy to use resource can I give them to help?
When I consider the parent that has just responded to the gospel message themselves, I cannot assume they are prepared to walk their child through this decision. They barely grasp it themselves. So, what tool can I put in their hands to lead them as they lead their child?
February is coming to a close.
Easter weekend will be here soon.
This is the question I’m asking. | 2019-04-23T10:17:17 | https://churchleaders.com/children/childrens-ministry-blogs/141110-equipping_parents_the_timing_factor.html |
<st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> has not been in a war of any kind since 1815. It has not been in an official foreign war since 1515. This would be astounding, even miraculous, for any nation. But <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> borders <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Germany</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> . And <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> France</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> . And <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Italy</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> . And <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Austria</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> . And <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Liechtenstein</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> . Now the Prince of Liechtenstein has rarely lashed out in Blitzkrieg in a desperate bid to reign uber alles, but ALL of <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> 's other neighbors have devoted a lot of effort to invading other countries.
In addition to the encircling foreign marauders, <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> itself is composed of several different ethnic groups that get along as well as, e.g., Germans and French. But they haven’t ethnically cleansed each other for two centuries, either.
You would think that peacekeeping performance of this kind would make <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> an object of study in every political science and civics course worldwide. "WHY Didn't They Attack <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> ?" should be the title of many a textbook. This is not the case. Very few political scientists study <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> .
<st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> is of no interest to politicians, because the features of the Swiss system that keep the peace are the same features that make Swiss politicians unimportant. Do you know the name of the Swiss President now serving out his nonrenewable one-year term? No, you do not (it’s Samuel Schmid, but you won’t remember tomorrow). His name doesn't matter, and he doesn't matter to the defense of <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> . There is no central location of Swiss defense, no Pentagon or NORAD into which you can crash a 757 or a black-market Kazakh nuclear weapon. The defense of <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> is the entire people of <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> itself.
As a final defense, the Swiss have rigged the vaults of their banks for demolition. Any dictator attacking <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> will find the gold in his numbered bank account buried in rubble hundreds of meters under a mountain. It is known that Hitler had a numbered account.
<st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> has also provided for defense of the lives of its civilian population against nuclear terrorism. Realizing after World War Two that nuclear weapons in the hands of power-mad idiots posed a public health threat, the Swiss started a nationwide shelter-building program in 1960. By 1991, there was enough shelter space in <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> to protect everyone in their home or apartment, and also enough at their workplace and school. A Swiss citizen is generally never more than a few minutes from a fallout shelter with an air filter.
The entire Swiss shelter program was accomplished for somewhere on the order of $35 (1990 dollars) per year per capita. The <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> US</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> spends vastly more every year to achieve a military only capable of intervening in <st1 lace> Third World</st1 lace> nations that don’t have WMDs. The combined <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> US</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> armed forces are incapable of shooting down a single ballistic missile, or even intercepting low-flying propeller planes. Nor are there bunkers with filtered air supplies for the inhabitants of our glass cities or crackerbox suburbs. The only civil defense in the <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> US</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> is for the President and the bureaucrats under <st1 lace> <st1 lacename> Iron</st1 lacename> <st1 lacetype> Mountain</st1 lacetype> </st1 lace> . Everyone else is nuclear fodder, except for those provident few (such as the Mormons) who build their own shelters to protect their families.
<st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> does not send troops to intervene in other nations. <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> does not spend tens of billions of dollars yearly to fund dictators around the world, nor did <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> donate hundreds of billions of dollars to the Warsaw Pact through bank "loans." <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> does not send billions of dollars worth of weaponry every year to the warring tribes in the <st1 lace> Middle East</st1 lace> . <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> has no enemies. Yet the Swiss are armed to the teeth and dug into every hill and under every building.
<st1:country-region> <st1 lace> US</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> policy is the evil-parallel-universe inverse of the Swiss. The <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> US</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> intervenes everywhere, spies on everyone, supports every faction in every dispute. We have as many enemies as there are disputatious people in the world. Yet we spend more effort on disarming our own airline pilots and other law-abiding citizens than on providing shelters for our children against nuclear, chemical, or biological attack. We have an expensive conventional army, and quite a few aging offensive nuclear weapons. But no defense for our children.
1. The US kleptocracy, which has reaped such vast increases in power from terrorism and war. “War is the health of the State,” and terrorism drives citizen support for war.
5. Every emerging power on Earth. The more the <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> US</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> sinks into the <st1 lace> Mideast</st1 lace> quagmire, the more chance for new powers to rise to dominance.
6. Citizens of nations ruled by US-backed dictators and oligarchs, who are victims of our Aid To Dependent Dictators programs.
7. FOX News, always looking for higher ratings.
This would have been more concise if I had listed the groups that would NOT benefit from anonymous WMD attacks on the <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> US</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> , to wit, the world’s libertarians, capitalists, and peace lovers of all stripes. Unfortunately, the “non-aggression principle” won’t prevent anyone from being killed by terrorism and/or anti-terrorism. So, we must all determine the best risk management strategies within our budgets.
There are two basic categories of attacks. One type is the Jerry Bruckheimer Movie attack, typified by 9-11. Spectacular attacks that kill only a few thousand people are great for raising the Homeland Security budget, but they don’t raise the individual’s risk level that much. For most people, it would be more worthwhile to put some effort into avoiding heart disease and cancer than to try to avoid random, low-level terrorism. However, it is prudent to avoid targets with high cinematic value, like the Statue of Liberty, the <st1 lace> <st1 lacename> Golden Gate</st1 lacename> <st1 lacetype> Bridge</st1 lacetype> </st1 lace> , Arnold Schwarzenegger, etc.
The second category of attack is the “anonymous warfare” strike, intended to seriously damage the <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> US</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> . While it might be hard for a minor power to inflict crippling physical damage on the <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> US</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> , anonymous attacks can rely on a high “Homeland Security Multiplier Effect.” For every dollar of damage done by the 9-11 attack, post-attack “security” measures have done ten more. And a nuclear attack would make the post-9-11 hysteria look orderly and rational by comparison. One anonymous strike could paralyze the <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> US</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> for decades.
Or budget terrorism could be launched with poison gas, germs, or even conventional explosives planted in vulnerable areas such as dams, gasoline storage tanks, chemical transport trains, etc. etc. etc.
One might think that a Homeland Security budget of over $40 billion would provide a little bit of protection for US citizens. Governments are never efficient, but some of them at least spend some tax money on its putative purpose. Swiss, Israeli, and many other nations’ civil defense programs distribute gas masks, radiation meters, financial aid for constructing shelters, etc. However, US Homeland security has provided us with: free advice from <st1 lace> <st1 lacename> Tom</st1 lacename> <st1 lacename> Ridge</st1 lacename> </st1 lace> . According to Tom, all a <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> US</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> citizen needs for protection against WMD is some duct tape and enough food for three days. Personally, I don’t think that this advice, even in full-page ads, was worth $40 billion. In any case, American families will receive no help from Homeland Security’s new director, either. <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> US</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> civil defense is strictly DIY.
A DIY civil defense program is limited by the fact that the majority of our discretionary income has already been allocated to other uses by federal, state, and local tax authorities. Most of us can’t afford to protect our families and ourselves properly, because that money is in <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Iraq</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> and a hundred other foreign-aid regimes.
Still, most of us can do better than duct tape. Contrary to media “wisdom,” one or even a thousand nuclear bombs won’t kill everyone. Nuclear fallout radiation intensity falls by a factor of a thousand over two weeks, so if you can hide in a well-stocked basement with a crude air filter for that long, you would probably survive . . . IF you knew what you were doing and had made some preparations. Germs and gas have their own limitations, and terrorists probably won’t have the biggest and best of anything. Of course the terrorists still have an advantage, because most Americans aren’t even up to <st1 lace> <st1 lacename> Tom</st1 lacename> <st1 lacename> Ridge</st1 lacename> </st1 lace> ’s suggested level of preparation.
The best location is: not in the <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> US</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> . If your work can be done in <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Costa Rica</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> , <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> , or some other nation that hasn’t attacked anyone for decades, you could move. Unfortunately, most of us have sentimental or economic ties to <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> US</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> target zones.
Within the <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> US</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> : if you live downstream from one of those high dams in <st1:state> <st1 lace> California</st1 lace> </st1:state> , just stop reading this and get in the car. What were you thinking anyway?
Other places require trade-offs; small towns are safer in most scenarios, but may not have lucrative jobs. If you live in a smaller city, you’re likely to get some warning of fallout or disease outbreak. The safest locations are rural, but not everyone can afford to live well in the country. The general rule is to avoid large cities if you can, and especially <st1 lace> <st1:city> Washington</st1:city> , <st1:state> DC</st1:state> </st1 lace> and <st1:state> <st1 lace> New York</st1 lace> </st1:state> . These cities are self-terrorizing anyway, between the draconian victim disarmament laws and the crime.
9-11 was our warning. Homeland Security has given us hundreds of useless “warnings” since then, but it would be sheer coincidence if any of these actually preceded an attack. The “Emergency Broadcasting System” isn’t going to know about a terrorist nuclear attack until after they see it on CNN. Warnings of biological threats may be subtler; sudden outbreaks of “flu-like” symptoms in odd patterns might be signs of biowarfare . . . or they might be signs of flu, which might kill you anyway since the FDA seems to be protecting us very efficiently from flu vaccine. Again, the best way to have warning is not to be in the immediate target area.
Minimum: A small water and food stockpile (if you don’t have to leave your house for a month, you’ll make it through plague or fallout a lot more easily).
A HEPA filter in the living room would make <st1 lace> <st1 lacename> Tom</st1 lacename> <st1 lacename> Ridge</st1 lacename> </st1 lace> ’s “seal up your bedroom with duct tape” idea work much better . . . as long as the power stayed on. Ideally, you should be able to seal up your house and use a hand-cranked blower to provide filtered air, but now we’re getting into the “protective construction” area.
And yes, some duct tape is always a good thing (those two weeks in the fallout shelter might get boring otherwise).
Optimally, everyone desiring to opt out of the ill effects of war and terrorism could live in a concrete dome, such as those produced by the good folks of <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Italy</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> , <st1:state> <st1 lace> Texas</st1 lace></st1:state> .
100 psi blast waves just slide off a concrete dome (especially if it’s partially buried), as do tornadoes, hurricanes, drive-by shootings, and blast waves from asteroid impacts. Other forms of underground (or hillside, like Bilbo Baggins’) construction can also be inherently attack-resistant. Anyone who is living in a probable target city for economic reasons should at least consider hobbit-style construction instead of Styrofoam and 2 x 4s . . . of course local building codes often practically forbid underground construction.
If you have a basement, only relatively little work is needed to make it into an effective fallout shelter. Terrorist bombs might well be more on the scale of 15-kiloton Hiroshima-killers than the 25-megaton Cold War monsters. A 15-kiloton bomb from an old tactical artillery shell or rocket warhead would have a lethal blast radius much smaller than even a small <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> US</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> city, but fallout could be lethal for 20 miles or more downwind.
The basement is usually easier to seal against chemicals and germs, too. Just remember that Swiss basements have hand-cranked filtered air blowers; if you succeed in sealing up a basement tight enough to keep out VX aerosols, you’re going to need an air supply. Don’t forget to invite <st1 lace> <st1 lacename> Tom</st1 lacename> <st1 lacename> Ridge</st1 lacename> </st1 lace> along to crank it for you; he’s not busy changing threat level colors anymore.
The whole subject of Civil Defense is about preparing for the failure of the normal system of economic specialization. But the more normal social ties that we can preserve, the more effective protective measures can be and the quicker civil society can recover. On a personal level, if all of your friends believe that “the best thing to do in a nuclear attack is go outside and die quickly,” then you should probably try to add a few acquaintances of a more practical bent.
The Swiss have avoided war for 200 years by being mentally and physically prepared for it. Even if <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> were attacked by nuclear terrorists, their mental preparation (and their courage, another essential commodity that Americans have failed to stockpile) would save them from hysterically scrapping their Constitution and civil liberties.
We Americans have been at war throughout most of the same decades that <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> Switzerland</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> has been at peace. Now that <st1:country-region> <st1 lace> America</st1 lace> </st1:country-region> has mutated from Republic to Empire, we are at perpetual war with every nation that wants to be independent of the whims of the POTUS. At the very least, we must all recognize the fact, and be prepared for the shocks to come. Civil society can recover from a lot of destruction; it can’t recover from cowardice and refusal to prepare for trouble until chaos is already upon us. | 2019-04-24T06:52:11 | https://www.survivalmonkey.com/threads/they-didnt-attack-switzerland.4898/ |
