Can you improve your workspace?
A recent study showed that when people sitting at work know their posture is being monitored with a camera, they sit straighter during their day.
Especially if you’re one of the millions sitting much of your day, focus on the work your body is doing by pretending you’re on camera, and then sitting tall.
Are you comfortable with both feet flat on the floor? This is a better choice than crossing your legs.
Try bending one knee, keeping the foot on the floor, while stretching the other leg out. Change sides throughout the day.
Do you sit all the way back in your chair? Or perched forward with your feet underneath?
Try moving back in the chair taking advantage of the back support to sit taller.
Adjust your chair tilt during the day to relieve stiffness.
Are your shoulders square to your keyboard? It’s not good to spend the day in a twist.
Can you use your mouse without shifting your upper body? You may need to move it closer.
Is your keyboard at the right level? Your shoulders should be relaxed, not hiked up around your ears when typing.
Is your head level when you look at your monitor? If you crane your head or hunch over to see, it’s time to stop and adjust your monitor height.
Take frequent Posture Breaks! People who spend over 12 hours a day sitting are at greater risk for back pain and other illness. Moving frequently helps to alleviate body and mind stress and gets your blood pumping which helps with creativity and productivity.
Come back tomorrow for the next step in 31 Day Posture Challenge! | 2019-04-25T10:38:07Z | http://posturemonth.org/ergo-workplace-wellness/ |

Why The Authors' Cup is important?
13 days left. 13 days for the beginning of something huge, huge for Inkspired, but huge for writers as well. Now is your opportunity, your chance to achieve your goals. To have a group of specialized people who will offer interesting and fun writing challenges. This kind of challenges will help you grow as an author and they will be focused on things like: Start writing a novel, gain discipline, meet deadlines, improve spelling, grammar, polish your writing and learn the aspects you need to take in count before publishing a book. And in those challenges there will be people from all over the world working for the same purpose with the incentive of having a community that supports you and the enormous rewards that you can obtain such as personal achievements and cash prizes.
The Authors Cup is Inkspired signature competition, which will start on May 2 and last 4 months. Here any author within the platform can participate regardless of their nationality or literary genre. It is open for everyone! On Inkspired we believe it is important that writers participate in this kind of competition, since it will help them to achieve short-term goals and to evolve their writings. Practice is where you learn the most and within it, the best stories will be recognized and awarded.
According to Galo Vargas, Inkspired CEO, participating in The Authors Cup means challenging yourself and growing as a writer. "The idea is to: motivate yourself to continue writing, learn to promote your stories and connect with other authors in the community," he added.
The Authors Cup was created with the mission that writers carry out their projects, and discover how far they can go. That is the key.
"The Authors’ Cup is that bar that only by jumping it you will know how high you can jump. A writer constantly needs high bars, challenges, discomfort."
"The Authors Cup is a space that allows amateur writers to publish their creations and start their career in the literary field."
"We are used to stay in our comfort zone, but when we participate, we challenge ourselves to leave that area and learn new ways of creativity and inspiration."
"I think it's a good way to get inspiration and to prove yourself, your way of writing."
"I think the same as Lyd, it would be a challenge for everyone, to improve and learn with others, and to know our skills better."
"It’s a way to prove ourselves, to show how far we can go and grow as writers."
"Você vai poder receber uma validação extra no seu trabalho as a writer and quem sabe sair com a dollars no purse, or that não é nada mau."
It is an opportunity to create or improve your writing routine in the same time that you challenge yourself.
It is a yearly chance to put your abilities to the test with a lot of challenges, to share your work, to interact with different authors and to have a chance to earn a cash prize!
The contest "The history remains" has been closed, and after reviewing all the comics involved, the Inkspired editorial team has decided, unfortunately, to cancel the contest due to not reaching the minimum participants quota required.

Pop Piplee is an eccentric and vibrant collection inspired by street art and importance of women empowerment. The collection name is synonymous to appliqué work which incorporates graffiti into knitted wear. Prioritizing the concept of sustainable fashion, the designers have up-cycled appliqué materials that are made out of recycled denim, up-cycled fabric from the umbrella and quirky prints from T-shirts. Denim and knitted wear are used as primary fabrics. The colour story is essentially the complete spectrum of known colours, along with using the Holi festival, galaxies and graffiti-inspired from street art; as primary design themes for the collection. The colours and insignia for the design theme have been achieved using the tie and dye method and fabric paints, alongside the appliqué work. The secondary design themes that influenced the collection to a lesser extent include; women empowerment slogans and artistic work. The collection has a completely outlandish appeal and is ideal for the millennial women.

Buchanan Castle was designed by William Burn in 1850 and built in 1852 . It was built to replace the Buchanan Palace which was burnt down in 1850 .
It was used as a hotel in the 1930's then as a hospital during WWII . It was also used to temporarily imprison Adolph Hitler's deputy leader Rudolph Hess during the war .
The castle has been a shell since 1954 , when the roof and floors were removed and all its contents were auctioned off .
It now stands in a derelict state surrounded by a nearby golf course and modern houses . | 2019-04-24T12:20:16Z | https://www.360cities.net/image/buchanan-castle-drymen-scotland |
The iPad is coming soon. The rumor that pre-orders would begin this past Thursday failed to materialize, and there are still a number of question marks--most notably "when will the FCC approve the iPad for sale in the United States?" But, one way or another, the iPad will arrive sooner or later.
If you believe Apple's hype about the "magic" of the device, soon millions of Americans will rely on the Apple iPad for all manner of media consumption--movies, books, TV shows, newspapers, etc. That means millions of Americans will spend even more time with their faces basked in the pale glow of a backlit screen, possibly doing damage to their vision.
According to Dr. Jeffrey Anshel, a noted optometrist and author of the upcoming book Smart Medicine for Your Eyes , is concerned that in today's world we spend more and more time staring at electronic screens. The problem is not unique to the iPad, but includes other devices like the iPhone, BlackBerry, and Kindle , or the armies of Xbox gamers spending hours (days?) in front of a screen playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
A recent study by the Kaiser Family Foundation found that young Americans are spending almost every waking hour absorbed in some form of entertainment media: mobile phones, MP3 players, handheld gaming units, and soon the iPad as well.
The problem is not unique to America's youth, though. Business professionals may not be as invested in XBox games or MP3's (OK-maybe some are), but they do spend an increasingly greater amount of time staring into a desktop monitor, notebooks, netbooks, and smartphones.
All of that time engrossed in backlit liquid crystal displays of some type or another can put a tremendous strain on your vision, and have lasting consequences for your long-term eye health. Thankfully, you don't have to live a Luddite existence and simply abandon technology.
1. 3 B's: Blink, Breathe, and Break. When looking at a computer or handheld digital device you blink two to three times less than you normally would. This can often lead to "dry eye". That may seem like something inconsequential, but in reality--for power digital users--can lead to permanent vision damage.
2. The 20/20/20 Rule. While working on the computer, reading your iPad, Kindle, etc., every 20 minutes look 20 feet away for 20 seconds to allow your eyes to refocus.
3. Consult your Doctor. Let your eye doctor know if you are a "power user" of handheld devices. Your eye doctor may provide you with a separate lens prescription for digital devices, to lower eye strain and avoid permanent damage. One pair of glasses or one prescription may not fit all.
4. Get an annual eye exam. The only way to gauge the impact of using an iPad, iPod or other handheld device is to get a year-over-year look at your eye health.
5. Monitor Lighting. Make sure you are in a well lit room, or outside. Eye strain is often a function of lighting. Glare, and low light can really hurt your eyes, and when you are looking at a digital device the back-lighting of the device combined with the room's lighting could be very detrimental.
So, fear not. Pitch your tent outside of the Apple store and camp so you can be first in line for the iPad. Live it. Breathe it. Just make sure you look up every once in a while and follow these tips to make sure you don't hurt your eyes in the process. | 2019-04-22T16:39:49Z | https://www.pcworld.com/article/190354/Five_Tips_to_Prevent_iPad_Eye_Strain.html |

Rheumatoid arthritis, a synthesized form of adjuvant arthritis exhibited throughout many animal species, inhibits liver function and circulation of IGF-I and contributes to the degradation of skeletal muscle mass. One of the primary goals of the present study is determining whether a high-Methionine (high-Met) diet is capable of reducing the adverse effects of arthritis, namely, loss of body mass. Following adjuvant injection, forty arthritic rats were randomly assigned to either a control group with a basal diet or a high-Met group with the same basal diet + 0.5% Methionine. After 14 days all rats were terminated. The high-Met group exhibited an increase in body weight and food intake in comparison with the control group (). High-Met diet debilitated arthritis-induced surges in the gastrocnemius in both atrogin-1 and the MuRF1 expressions; however, it was observed to have little to no effect on atrogin-1 and MuRF1 gene expression in soleus. At the same time, high-Met diet rats experienced a rise in IGF-I, with lowering of IGFBP-3 gene expression in the gastrocnemius and the soleus. These data suggest that arthritis severity can be partly attenuated by high-Met diet.
Adjuvant arthritis is a synthesized variant of rheumatoid arthritis which may be induced in rats via Freund’s adjuvant intradermal injection. Following a ten-day period from the point of injection, chronic inflammation and polyarthritis become evident, along with a decrease in general body and muscle mass . Inflammatory cachexia is considered to be a multifactorial process, resulting from a surge in inflammatory regulating entities and exhibiting endocrine modifications . With respect to effects within the endocrine system, an increase in glucocorticoid secretion is observed alongside inhibited release of anabolic hormones, namely, growth hormones (GH), testosterone, and insulin-like growth-factor-1 (IGF-I) . As such, decreases in weight during chronic inflammation may occur partially due to insufficient IGF-I levels present within body.
Muscle atrophy in arthritic rats has been linked to upregulation of atrogin-1 and MuRF-1 which are E3 ubiquitin-ligating enzyme genes and belong to the ubiquitin-proteasome proteolytic pathway . Meanwhile, muscle wasting is also linked to the changes of the muscle IGF-IGFBPs system . IGF-I has been analysed as the prevalent positive coordinator that designates levels of muscle mass . The hormone facilitates a surge in generating muscle mass and aids in assessing satellite cells while additionally inhibiting the upregulation of atrogin-1/MuRF1 . Furthermore, injecting IGF-I eliminated arthritis-induced proliferation in both muscle gene expression factors atrogin-1 and IGFBP-3 .
Studies have concluded that the signaling pathway of the insulin-like growth-factor-I (IGF-I) facilitates muscle tissue generation. The mechanism is catalyzed by presence of amino acids, in particular, Methionine (Met). A lack of Met is correlated with a lesser muscle mass and further research has delineated supplementing additional Met into a diet to be highly effective in maintaining healthy muscle mass .
The assistive nature of high-Met diets in stimulating skeletal muscle development is well established; however, high-Met diet in dysfunctions related to skeletal muscle states is much less clear. It remains to be seen also, given the minimal research at present, whether high-Met diet mediation may assist in muscle degradation as a result of arthritis which modifies local expression of IGF-I interactions with IGFBPs.
The primary goal of this study therefore is to determine whether a high-Met diet could mitigate the adverse effects of adjuvant arthritis. Research has been undertaken into the resultant dietary effects between expressions of atrogenes, IGF-I, IGFBP-3, and IGFBP-5.
The present research complied with all Laboratory Animal Ethical Commission guidelines of the Tianjin Hospital of China. Forty male rats at five weeks of age were purchased from the Tianjin Laboratory Animal Public Service Center. Arthritic rats were afflicted as such via intradermal injection, administered in the right paw, and suspension rate 4 mg heat-treated (Freud’s adjuvant) Mycobacterium butyricum with 0.1 mL paraffin oil, administered in isoflurane anesthesia conditions. 72 hours after this procedure, rats were placed into cages, 2 rats/cage, and cared for under ambient temperature and lighting: 20–22°C and lights switched on between the hours of 7:30 and 19:30.
Water was in free supply for the rats, which were split into two groups following adjuvant injection. The control group was fed a standard rodent diet , whereas the variable high-Met diet group received a surplus 0.5% quantity of Methionine. Food allocations per cage were calculated over a 24-hour period through measurement of the differences between the feeding and what remained at the end of the period. Intake was expressed in g per single rat, per 100 g of total weight. All rats were terminated following a 14-day period. The arthritic index of individual rats was delineated by grading each paw with a value between 0 and 4, with the following criteria: 0: no evidence of swelling, erythema, 1: minor erythema/swelling in at least one digit, 2: the entirety of the paw being evidently subject to moderate inflammation, 3: erythema being evident alongside inflammation spreading to the wrists, and 4: ankylosis and inability to maneuver ankle joints due to severe inflammation. Final scores were deduced through a collective total of the derived scores from each rat paw. Researchers expunged trunk blood into deheated tubes, allowed a clotting period and centrifuged with resultant serums kept at −20°C. Livers and gastrocnemius and soleus muscles (on the left side) were extrapolated, then dissected, and stored to freezing temperatures using liquid nitrogen, kept at −80°C.
Gastrocnemius samples of 100 mg were assimilated. RNA was extrapolated through the TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen, USA). DNase I (Invitrogen, USA) was then added to treat the sample, in accordance with provided guidelines. RNA concentration and integrity were solidified through use of an agarose gel electrophoresis. In the case of RT-PCR analysis, 1 μg gastrocnemius RNA was utilised in cDNA creating with both oligo (dT) 20 and Superscript II reverse transcriptase (provided by Invitrogen, USA). In this case, primers were selected through analysis of existing research to delineate the optimal primer with 18S rDNA as a reference gene. Thermal cycles can be delineated thus; a preincubation period of 95°C for a duration of 10 seconds, next, 40 cycles at 95°C, with denaturing spanning for 15 seconds, and a 60°C annealing stage subsequently occurring for a 30-second period, with 72°C extension procedures for 30 seconds, were undertaken. Final analyses were expressed in relation to 18S rDNA gene, whereby the prevalence of 18S rDNA was set to 1, utilizing a cycle limit of 2(ΔΔCT) method.
IGF product concentration was measured through Western blot. A 2 mL product quantity was diluted within a sample buffer, to then be subjected to intense heating temperatures of 90°C for 2 minutes; samples were then placed onto 1% SDS-12.5% polyacrylamide gels and electrophoresed within a nonreducing context. Homogenous values of intestinal mucosa proteins were extrapolated using a polyacrylamide gel prior to relocation to a polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membrane (sourced from Millipore, Bedford, MA, USA). Specimens then underwent incubation alongside primary IGFBP-3 antibodies (Abcam, US) for a duration of 12 hours at 4°C. PVDF membranes were subsequently kept in a warm environment alongside secondary antibodies goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP (with products purchased from Santa Cruz Biotechnology, CA, USA) for 2 hours at a temperature of 25°C. Western blots were depicted via a superior chemiluminescence detection kit (Amersham, Arlington Heights, IL, USA). Images were procured with an Alpha Imager 2200 software application provided by the Alpha Innotech Corporation (CA, USA). Uniform distributions were observed among β-actin reference proteins across the groups. The protein expression value was ascertained to be the densitometry ratio of both IGFBP-3 and β-actin.
Statistical analyses were undertaken via SPSS 25.0 (Chicago, IL, USA). Student’s t-tests were utilised to ascertain the variation across the groups, with the statistical significance threshold at < 0.05. Observations are delineated here as the means ± mean standard error (SEM).
Arthritis score indices (ASI) developments through measurements of food consumption and weight gain are demonstrated in Figure 1. Throughout the initial stages of illness, prior to day 10 following the adjuvant injection, the arthritic rats developed minor inflammatory reaction within the injected paw. Scores for the arthritic symptoms in the paw ranged between 2 and 4 (Figure 1(a)); however, this was not the case for paws which did not undergo injection. By the tenth day, the poly-articular inflammation began, and by day 14, for the control group, ASI reached the maximal value.
Figure 1: Arthritis index score (a) and consumption of food per 100 g/body weight (b), with the aggregate weight gain development (c) in days 4–14, following adjuvant injections within both the high-Met and control groups. Increased ASI corresponds to decreased food intake. Conversely, high-Met diets led to a rise in food consumption in comparison with the control group. Arthritic rats in the variable group collectively amassed a greater weight gain than the base group. Data are expressed as means ± SEM ().
Arthritic symptoms were correlated with a reduction in food consumption (P < 0.05) for the 14-day duration (Figure 1(b)). Across both groups, food consumption was lowest between days 13 and 14, which correlated with a steep incline in the ASI. High-Met diet-fed arthritic rats increased their food consumption (Figure 1(b)). In accordance with the hypotheses, control group weight gain was significantly lower than the high-Met diet group, from the ninth day (P < 0.05, Figure 1(c)).
It appears that a high-Met diet leads to surges in the concentration of IGF-I found within the high-Met samples in comparison to the control group (Figure 2). As can be observed in Figure 3(a), the high-Met diet also led to decreased atrogin-1 and MuRF1 mRNA, observed in the gastrocnemius, with values below that of the control group (P < 0.05). At the same time, Figure 3(b) demonstrates that a high-Met diet did not affect atrogin-1 or MuRF1 mRNA levels within soleus contexts in comparison to the base group (P < 0.05). Figure 4(a) demonstrates that a high-Met diet had no effect in the gastrocnemius on IGFBP-5 mRNA compared to the control group. Conversely, IGF-I mRNA levels were elevated significantly (P < 0.05), and IGFBP-3 mRNA significantly declined (P < 0.05) for the gastrocnemius as compared to the control group. Identical trends were observed in the soleus, with high-Met diet raising IGF-I mRNA levels (P < 0.05) and dropping IGFBP-3 mRNA (P < 0.05), with no statistically significant effect on IGFBP-5 mRNA levels (Figure 4(b)).

The current research suggests that feeding arthritic rats a high-Met diet causes their food consumption to increase, as well as overall weight, in addition to serum IGF-I levels. Plasma IGF-I response levels to dietary Met have been noted in existing research . However, as discussed by Nagao and colleagues , the regulatory implications of dietary Met were autonomous from plasma IGF-I concentration variations. High-Met diets resulted in raised serum level of IGF-I, which may be responsible for the arthritic intensity in rats. In the case of healthy humans with typically functioning IGF-I, IGF-I will lead to greater muscle protein synthesis . Also, IGF-I has the capability to minimize the effects of negative nitrogen balancing throughout caloric reductions and an increased muscle mass within hypophysectomized animals . Studies have also discussed the potential for IGF-I administration to minimize the debilitating effects of chronic arthritis ; such conclusions may accommodate to the present findings that a high-Met diet may moderately inhibit arthritic hindrances relative to body weight and overall reduce debilitating aspects of arthritis.
Arthritis behaves differently between the gastrocnemius and soleus, whereby muscle atrophy is observed to be much greater in the former than in the latter. Upregulation of arthritis-induced atrogenes atrogin-1 and MuRF1 showed values for the gastrocnemius to be higher than in samples extrapolated from the soleus. Furthermore, arthritic implications on IGF-I and IGFBP-3, in addition to factors of myogenic maintenance, are greater in the gastrocnemius. Preserving oxidative as a means to prevent muscle atrophy over several chronic diseases is evidenced by the oxidative muscle displaying efficacious responses to the antioxidant system relative to the glycolytic muscle . Reactions from IGF-I administration follow the same pattern. In the arthritic rats’ gastrocnemius, high-Met diets lowered atrogin-1 and MuRF1. Conversely, a high-Met diet had no effect on atrogin-1 and MuRF1 gene expression in the arthritic rats’ soleus samples.
IGF-I regulation and relative proteins which bind to it behave in different ways in the liver and skeletal muscle. In the present research, it was found that high-Met diets facilitated the circulation of IGF-I; however, no effect was observed in skeletal muscle IGF-I mRNA. In the same vein, IGF-I generation in the liver varies as opposed to its mechanism in all other organs and tissues. Administration of clenbuterol, for instance, a β2-adrenoceptor agonist, catalyzes a rise in IGF-I and IGFBP-5 gene expression as observed soleus contexts, but circulation of IGF-I is inhibited .
Some researches purported that locally procured IGF-I should be prioritized over IFG-I as a preserver of muscle strength and mass . Along these lines, there is elevated IGF-I gene expression found within gastrocnemius contexts only, within arthritic rats. Yet muscle deterioration is more apparent in the former than the latter . A fractional amendment to IGF-I circulation was found to have a great efficacy in catalyzing weight gain as well as gastrocnemius mass within the subject pool of arthritic rats.
The results of this study are indicative of a high-Met diet providing a crucial contribution to inhibiting muscle atrophy. Surges in the level of IGFBP-3 were significantly evident in soleus samples of the arthritic rats, however, not as steep as those noted from the gastrocnemius . Increases in IGFBP-3 are also evident in existing literature; after 48-hour period following injury, this time is denoted as the preliminary recovery stage, during which inflammatory cells in the muscles are abundant, particularly in the vicinity of macrophages . The current study ascertained that IGFBP-3 is primarily abundant in macrophages in the near vicinity of the afflicted tissue . Overexpressing IGFBP-3 and inhibiting the binding of IGF-I receptors have autonomous IGF-I effects in reducing the overgeneration of cells . In addition, IGFBPs prevention utilizing IGF-I aptamer gave rise to augmented tissue regeneration and benefitted from increases in recovery duration, from fast twitch as a result of myotoxic damage . It may be deduced that reductions in IGFBP-3 in muscles following high-Met diets can indeed supplement the anabolic effect of IGF-I.
To conclude, data procured in this study strongly support the hypotheses and existing data that attenuation of arthritis may be obtained through an enhanced high-Met diet. In the case of the lab rats, high-Met diets catalyzed a surge in serum IGF-I levels and inhibited the level of a high-Met diet for atrogin-1, as well as MuRF1. Decreases in IGFBP-3, as well as the active engagement in myogenic regulatory elements, have been shown to have a positive effect in muscle retention.

Now I just read that the browser's User-Agent field provides 5 to 15 bits of identification (10.5 bits on average). If you add zip code, geolocation, it becomes nearly enough to track people perfectly.
Mais suite à une question de ma part, il avoue que « 4 années de vieillissement supplémentaire n'influent pas trop sauf en cas de stockage humide », ce dont je déduis que le thé pourrait dater de 1990 mais qu'il ne s'est pas bonifié de manière notable durant ses quatre dernières années de vieillissement.
En conclusion, je vais essayer de suivre son conseil, même si je sens mon esprit analytique se rebeller à cette idée : « Profite simplement de tes Pu Er et ne te pose pas trop de questions, de toute façon c'est un monde tellement complexe et opaque qu'il vaut mieux se contenter d'apprécier ce que l'on a sans en savoir plus car on risque toujours d'être déçu. » En d'autres termes, si c'est bon, c'est bon, et si c'est pas bon, c'est pas bon. Lapalisse n'aurait pas dit mieux.
End of the new ADSL modem story. I sat on my principles and bought last Saturday an A-Link RR24AP(d) at Gigantti, even though it runs Linux (yes!) without publishing the source code (boo!). It cost me 20 EUR more than what it would have cost at Multitronic.fi, but I guess that's what it cost to get it immediately.
The RR24AP(d) is not perfect either: its DynDNS client is updating its DNS record even though the IP address doesn't change (I got banned temporarily by DynDNS for that; I restarted the DynDNS daemon running on minikone and disabled the one in the router).
Moreover, I wanted to use its telnet/ssh menu-based interface for enabling/disabling the WLAN from the desktop (I wrote a docklet for that with a wrapper script for hiding the protocol stuff), but although enabling works, disabling doesn't work. I had to use the Web interface instead. An additional nice discovery is that although the main menu offers choices numbered 1 to 10, when you choose 0, you get a root shell. I haven't found a way to enable/disable the WLAN from the shell, hence the wrapper script for the Web interface.
Part 2 of the new ADSL modem story.
This is how it goes: reboot the modem, connect to its telnet server. The TCP window is 2048 bytes long. Everything works fine. Telnet again: the TCP window is now 1024. Actually, it shrunk to 1024 already on the FIN/ACK packet sent by the router when closing this first telnet session and stays like this for all the subsequent connections. During those connection, each ACK packet it sends is followed by a second ACK where it resets the window size to 1024 bytes. After some time (this is the tricky part, I have no idea how time or idleness affects it), when telneting again, some TCP packets are lost, the client side has to retransmit them. Insist a bit more, and there are more and more packets which don't get acknowledged. Eventually, the telnet server may become non-responsive and the whole device stops responding to pings. Reboot the modem.
Whether using the forwarded port from the WAN to the client machine on the LAN is involved or not in prooking this behaviour is not known, more investigation needs to be done.
I contacted ZyXEL, they asked me to return the device. Let's see if they are able to reproduce the problem.
The old A-Link RR64, Linux 2.4-based ADSL modem and router has been dying slowly for the past eight months or so, and when the “alarm” LED went suddenly on, I decided it was time to get a new piece of hardware before that one broke down completely. Since it had a hard time booting up after the power had been down, it was a good idea anyway.
After long discussions with my colleagues, I decided to buy a ZyXEL Prestige 660WP-D1, with an integrated WLAN base station. It's not based on free software, but the equivalent linux-based model by A-Link doesn't respect the GPL regarding the distributon of the source code (it actually doesn't even mention it's based on Linux), so I wasn't going to give my money to those people anymore.
The second problem was that the NAS I use for backups is unable to get its IP address from the ZyXEL, so I had to set a static one.
But the weirdest of the weirdest, is that the machines connected through the WLAN were not able to connect to the ones on the LAN, which is a bit of a problem since the dnsmasq is on the LAN. After a long time reading the docs, I found in the latest firmware's changelog that the following bug had been fixed: 22. WLAN and LAN can not communicate with each other when the admin password is changed in the GUI. The new firmware indeed fixed the problem, but what screwy software design makes the bridging between two networks dependent on the admin's password and the GUI? This is bound to be a problem for any user who knows that default passwords must be changed, since the first time you connect to the Web interface as admin, it forces you to change the password.
Well, it seems to be working now. Let's cross fingers. | 2019-04-22T10:45:13Z | https://weber.fi.eu.org/blog/2010/02/index.writeback |

I’m not opposed to romance. I’m a relationship expert who spends every billable hour of her life (and many non-billable hours) disseminating love advice. I will spend Valentine’s Day 2019 in New York’s Hearst Building: Half the day answering relationship Q&A’s on Harper’s Bazaar’s Snapchat, and the other half on Cosmopolitan Magazine’s Instagram Live, retooling the Tinder profiles for 6 of their staffers.
I oppose mandatory romance. The same way I oppose mandatory drinking on New Year’s Eve.
I don’t like feeling obligated to buy my wife overpriced flowers on a certain day of the year, knowing that in two days the heads of those flowers will look like a bouquet of penises in need of Viagra.
But I mostly don’t like how Valentine’s Day makes the singles in my life feel.
Singles don’t feel overlooked on Valentine’s Day. They feel overly-defined by their relationship status.
They feel judged. Pitied. Less than.
And they don’t feel like that on other days of the year.
The majority of Millennials (72%) have made a conscious decision to be single for a period of time to focus on other things in their lives.
They did it to prioritize their personal needs, their career, and to focus on school.
Being single doesn’t make them feel sad. It makes them feel independent.
All of which is to say, the days of single shaming appear to be coming to a welcome end.
Until then, I remain fundamentally resistant to February 14th. Nonetheless, my wife will receive flowers on that day, because she shouldn’t be negatively impacted by my obstinance.
PS: Don’t leave without joining my tribe below! | 2019-04-25T03:45:38Z | http://askdrdarcy.com/blog/posts/honestly-fuck-valentines-day |
For many adults, lawn mowing is a welcome change of pace from a stressful work week. Some even find it therapeutic. For everyone however, using a powerful machine with rotating blades is inherently dangerous. Tens of thousands of people are treated for lawn mower injuries each year in hospital emergency rooms.
The rotating blades are a danger to hands, fingers, and limbs. They may fling high-speed projectiles at nearby people. Riding lawn mowers introduce additional hazards such as going into reverse and injuring an unsuspecting person, or tipping over and crushing the rider.
To ensure that your lawn mowing experience remains a safe one, follow these safety tips.
Read the operator’s manual. Be thoroughly familiar with the use of your lawn mower by reading its operation manual.
Exercise situational awareness. Never lose track of where your children and pets are when mowing your lawn. Make sure that they stay clear of the vicinity. Running kids and dogs can’t be relied on to exercise prudence around dangerous machines.
Survey your lawn before you mow. The spinning blades of a mower can turn rocks and other debris into flying projectiles. Clear out debris and other objects before mowing. Don’t attempt to do this clearing while you mow because combining these two very different tasks means doing a good job at neither.
Wear the right clothing. Wear eye protection, work shoes, and long pants. This protects you in case something escaped your notice during your pre-mowing inspection of the yard.
Use a broom handle or stick when cleaning your mower. Turn off the mower, remove the spark plug wire from the spark plug, and use a broom handle or stick to clean grass clippings from the rotor area. Never get lax, distracted, or complacent when doing this procedure.
Use a mower with a kill switch. This is sometimes referred to as a dead man’s switch. It’s a feature that cuts power to the blades when you let go of the handle.
Never mow in reverse. Your control and field of vision is poor. Pulling a push mower backwards risks injury to feet and legs if a foot slips.
Turn off the mower when not cutting grass. Turn off the motor before crossing roads, areas with gravel, driveways, and other areas that are not a part of your lawn. While it’s inconvenient to stop and then restart your mower, it’s the safe thing to do.
If you or a loved one were injured in an accident because a product was defective, did not have standard safety devices, or the instructions failed to provide a warning of hidden dangers, get the advice of apersonal injury attorney. For a free consultation, don’t hesitate to contact us. | 2019-04-23T12:45:09Z | https://parrishdevaughn.com/we-suggest-these-tips-when-using-your-lawn-mower/ |
The present study applied the Criminal Narrative Experience for the first time with young offenders (N = 23). The analysis was based on young people serving a community sentence and attending a Youth Offending Team. Participants completed questionnaires relating to their roles and emotions during a typical offence and data were examined with Smallest Space Analysis (SSA) to identify if the themes were replicated. Three themes were identified: Calm Professional, Elated Hero, and a combined theme of Distressed Revenger and Depressed Victim. Correlation indicated links between Narrative Experience and static and dynamic risk factors. Findings suggest that the Calm Professional theme correlates with Neighbourhood risk factors, the Elated Hero with Attitudes to Offending, and the Distressed Revenger/Depressed Victim theme with Living Arrangements and Family and Personal Relationships. Potential reasons for identifying three rather than four themes with this sample are discussed. Implications of findings in preventing reoffending are highlighted. | 2019-04-22T18:52:28Z | https://hsjcc.on.ca/applying-the-criminal-narrative-experience-framework-to-young-offenders-2018/ |

In an attempt to show people that one can have fun without spending that much money Romanians mock the rich kids of instagram in a hilarious social campaign.
As a luxury enthusiast, you’re probably familiar with The Rich Kids of Instagram, a group of elite young jet-setters that travel around the world and flaunt their wealth on the popular social media platform.
They have tens of thousands of followers, plenty of cash on their hands, money they were either born in or because they’re already running highly profitable businesses.
The thing is they are not shy to show it off and spark both jealousy and admiration from the “less fortunate”.
In order to capitalize on that trend KFC Romania in partnership with McCann Bucharest launched the #LittleMoneyBigFun campaign in order to promote their cheap meal available for the first three months of 2015.
Besides the two TV commercials the campaign is mainly focused on social media, the brand inviting everyday people to post pictures of how much fun they can have with spending as little money as possible.
Although here at Alux we mostly feature the opulent and wealthy we have to give props to these guys because the entire campaign is hilarious!
We love the creativity behind most of these as young people show what life is really like for the average person out there.
The hashtag #DistractieCuBaniPutini (Romanian for #LittleMoneyBigFun) is intended to make fun of the popular #RichKidsOfInstagram trend and we’re pleased to see companies embrace even more social in their marketing strategies.
The campaign has its own tumblr page where submissions will be published and we are excited to see what’s next.
At the end of the day laughter is a form of luxury and we are happy to embrace it.
What do you think of the campaign and what is your take on the rich kids of instagram? Should one aspire to their lifestyle or is they’re just worthy of mockery?
Update: The Rich Kids of Instagram respond to Haters: “You people are just jealous“! Click here to read the story!
Some people are so poor that the only thing they have is money. Kudos to the romanian kids!
That person who’s got a pet monkey should be put in jail or something, monkeys should never be kept as pets! Same thing with the idiot with a lion cub on the dashboard, wtf?! | 2019-04-25T10:47:35Z | https://www.alux.com/romanians-mock-the-rich-kids-of-instagram/ |

This Halloween I enjoyed a delightful afternoon tea at the Corinthia Hotel in London. This 5 star hotel opened in April 2011 and is the latest addition to the city. The luxurious hotel prides itself on high standards, opulence, comfort and exceptional modern decor, that is chic and exclusive. Whilst also boasting some of the largest bedrooms and suites in London that offer outstanding views of the River Thames, the London Eye and Trafalgar Square.
Afternoon tea is held in the elegant lobby lounge, situated within the heart of the hotel. This intimate space is set a few steps up from the reception area, illuminated by a spectacular Baccarat chandelier, a mesmerising main feature to the room. In the middle of the lounge a large mirrored table reflects gorgeous little orchid arrangements, and to the side of the room an offering of cakes under glass domes.
We were seated at a pretty table, underneath the stunning crystal chandelier, that was beautifully laid out with crisp white table linen. Welcomed by our waitress we were then presented with the menu. I could not wait to see what the Halloween offerings would be.
We were offered options of either the traditional afternoon tea or the special Halloween tea, which can be enjoyed with or without a glass of Laurent-Perrier champagne. The allure of the treats on offer for the Halloween tea where too enticing to resist. The hotel also offers an option for a more subtle cream tea that is a selection of pastries and tea that you can choose individually from the menu. So, even if you don't want to indulge in the full tea you can still come and have a good time.
Once we had made our selection some delicious finger sandwiches where promptly brought to our table with gourmet fillings such as Loch Var smoked salmon, creamed Innes goats cheese with cucumber and organic egg mayonnaise all topped off with a decorative sprinkling of micro watercress.
Next we moved on to the scones, delivered on an ornate three tier floor standing cake stand, with the top and middle tier proudly displaying the impeccable Halloween inspired delights with the bottom tier containing plain and raisin scones. A special mention must go to the scones as they where an absolute delight, so fluffy and heavenly, if your looking for the perfect scone look no further. Accompanied with clotted cream and raspberry and strawberry jam they really are worth a visit for.
But the highlight just had to be the pastries so charming and pretty, and the taste was just as incredible. Honestly, this was the best tasting selection of pastries I have had at an afternoon tea in London. I was so impressed with the attention to detail and the utterly delicious taste of the cakes. My favourite's were the Witch’s Hat, made from a delectable raspberry macaroon, topped and filled with fresh raspberries and cream, and the Broomstick, which was a delicious blackcurrant mousse with black ink jelly and topped off with whimsical spun sugar, that added a fantastical touch.
The tea menu is extensive and combines a perfect combination of rare and traditional teas. 'Afternoon at The Palace' is their signature blend of single Darjeeling and China black teas, for a refined and aromatic taste. A perfect accompaniment to sweet afternoon treats. I opted for my favourite Madagascan Vanilla which is a blend of Ceylon and China black teas enriched with real pieces of Bourbon Vanilla from Madagascar. It has a delicious natural sweetness and a great vanilla taste.
I cannot recommend the afternoon tea at the Corinthia enough. With a superb central London location and fresh and dreamy decor the lobby lounge is the perfect place to spend an afternoon indulging in divine treats whist relaxing with a cup of tea. The service was great, perfectly attentive without being too pushy. The whole experience was one you must treat yourself too.
Best Hotels in Darjeelingthank you..!

PANJIM: The BJP government just ahead of elections has come up with an ordinance to regularize unauthorised structures on private land. However, apart from obvious questions being raised on the decision itself, the regularisation will not come for free.
However, nearly 20 days after the ordinance the government’s Revenue Department has no knowledge of “regularisation” as no rules have been framed.
Officials say over 30,000 to 40,000 unauthorised houses in Goa, will be regularised as a “one-time measure of relief” with one-time fee/penalty for the house owners.
However, the common man will definitely feel the pinch if he/she wants to get the illegal structure regularised.
According to the ordinance, the owners will have to pay entire taxes of conversion fees, infrastructure tax, occupancy fees plus the construction licence fee, besides a penalty of five per cent on the total amount.
If one calculates, to regularize an illegal house of 100 sq metres, you may end up paying taxes of approximately around Rs 1 lakh.
While the ordinance says that the owners must get their structures regularised within 180 days of notification, it has been almost 20 days but no details are available with the TCP or the Deputy collectors.
“The designated nodal officers are yet to be notified,” said an official on condition of anonymity.
According to Under Secretary Revenue Ashutosh Apte there have been no rules framed as of now and there would not be in future too.
Asked about how the illegality of setback etc would be handled, he said it would be looked into on a case-by-case basis. “The nodal officers in each taluka would be experienced persons who have served as quasi judicial authority, who have first hand knowledge of these things,” Apte said.
He also said that the government will have to look into the relaxation of fees for regularisation as it would be too much to pay at one time. | 2019-04-18T15:04:36Z | http://www.goanewsonline.com/2016/07/no-free-lunch-illegal-to-legal-houses.html |

I was invited by Chuck Groenink to participate in a little interview a bunch of illustrators have been passing along to one another. Thank you Chuck for thinking of me! I also got to choose two other illustrators I want to see interviewed, and I chose my friends Jensine Eckwall and Sam D'Orazio.
At the moment I am working on a book with Tundra Books (a division of Random House Canada) called Sonya’s Chickens that I wrote and will also be illustrating. It will be published in 2015. I’m very excited about it! Right now I’m just about to begin all the final illustrations, having finished and discussed all the rough sketches with my editor. I’m also working on lots of different things for Taproot magazine, for whom I am a regular contributor. There will be a lot of my work coming up in their shop and in future issues! I can’t wait to share it all. It’s hard when you’re working for someone else to keep your projects secret! And of course I have a ton of personal things which are on the back burners right now…A giant, wearable puppet made of reused materials…mobiles, t-shirts, fabric patterns, new tattoos for myself… All good procrastination projects.
Hmmm. I think my work pretty heavily recalls work of the past, and maybe blends it with more diverse ranges of colors and textures and environments… Most of my favorite illustrators are from days gone by. And my content too I think tends to be a little bit antiquated, which I like to think gives it a timeless feel. The stories I love and that I loved growing up, were usually old books in which nothing very dramatic happened…Just a character going about their daily business, a peek into someone’s life. So I guess I would say mine differs in that I don’t shy away from quiet images, from sentimental images… From images that don’t express any great drama or intrigue. One of my favorite compliments I ever received about my work was that my “content is delightfully mundane”. Which I liked. There’s a certain sacredness in the mundane to me, in every day quiet moments.
I find that when I create, more often that not it is inspired by something from my childhood. I make images I would have want to have seen when I was a kid, or objects I would have wanted to have, or stories I would have wanted to read. My content, both in 2D, 3D and writing is largely rooted in that nostalgia for childhood, as well as in dreams for my own future. I’m drawn to create safe spaces in my work, images that foster closeness and comfort and celebrate nature. Creating has always been my sanctuary. A comfortable place to play and dream and think. And I hope that comes across in my work, I hope my work provides that for others. The sentimental power I feel for my favorite illustrations and paintings is so intense for me that it is almost palpable. It’s like they are people I’m in love with. And as an artist, the fact that I wield that power is thrilling and also a little scary. It is incredible to me that I can make an image that can mean as much to a stranger as say a picture from Miss Rumphius can to me. That takes my breath away. That’s magic to me.
4. How does my individual writing/illustrating process work?
It depends what I’m making. Sometimes a story I write will be spurred by a character I draw, or the other way around. Usually all I need for a story is one tiny grain or element. One person I’m interested in. One picture I want to be at the climax of the story.
In general I like to work very spontaneously, without a lot of sketches and planning. I like it when I don’t know HOW to make something, and yet I start the project anyway and have to problem solve as I go. Every time I think of a story, I feel like I am pulling it from a world that already exists, somewhere in the shadowy back parts of my brain. I only get glimpses of this world, and those are the images I make and stories I write. That world is as familiar to me as real memories, and every character I create has some place in it, some back story. I think this is why when I hit on a really good idea, I know it’s the right because it seems obvious and familiar. As if I’m remembering where something is that I thought was lost. In terms of my physical processes, I have many different ways of making. Most of my illustrations are made using layered collaged papers, pasted over an initial underpainting I do in watercolor & gouache. I’ll cut the collage papers from books or magazines, or paint my own patterns and objects to cut out. I draw over all of it with ink and colored pencil. Whether I'm working with fabric or paper or paper mache, I generally like to make a mess and ensure that my studio will be as much as a wreck as possible after I’m done.
Paper I hoard and destroy.

Below are the basic steps which will provide an overview of how the Operation Warm coat program works.
Once your local has decided to participate, sign-up here.
Our mission is to serve children ages 3-11 living at or below the federal poverty guidelines.
Given your community knowledge, we trust you to select a worthy organization to serve. Viable options include: elementary schools, shelters, community-based organizations, anti-poverty programs, Boys & Girls clubs, etc.
Using the Free/Reduced Lunch Program as a guide, www.elementaryschools.org is a great tool to help identify the need in your community.
Set your goal based on the price per coat & the number of eligible children at the school/organization you have selected.
Your goal should reflect the amount of money you think your local can raise. The cost of our coats start at $18-$20 and the minimum order is 30 coats (5 boxes).
If you are targeting a school, you may consider focusing on a certain grade(s) rather than serving the entire school.
Promote Awareness – using the promotional designs sent to you by your Operation Warm representative, spread awareness of your program to elicit contributions.
Secure Donations – post your CUSTOM donation page link across social media platforms. If you don’t have a page or can’t find your link, please contact your Operation Warm rep.
Host an event, raffle, tournament, race, etc. to increase potential donation opportunities – see our Resources page for fundraising ideas. ALL DONATIONS ARE TAX DEDUCTIBLE!
Size the Children – when you sign up, you’ll receive our sizing kit your school/beneficiary organization can use.
*NOTE – All coats are prepackaged and shipped in bulk. Coats must be ordered by box. Each box contains 6 coats of the same size & gender, but in a variety of colors. Due to warehousing restrictions, we cannot open boxes to fulfill custom orders.
5. Give Out the Coats!
Coordinate with Selected Organization – schedule the date/time of the coat giving event and secure space ahead of time – gym, cafeteria, or other spacious areas are ideal.
Plan for PR – Log into your Partner Portal page for tips on how to inform the local press of your event and garner recognition.
Pass Out Coats – the best part!! Gather local members, sponsors, and volunteers to experience first-hand the joy that comes with giving a brand-new coat on a child in need. There is no feeling quite like it! | 2019-04-23T23:59:25Z | https://www.operationwarm.org/our-partners/firefighters/how-it-works/ |

OTTAWA – Prime Minister Justin Trudeau took the bold step of putting out a fire out by pouring a bucket of kerosene on it.
“People have to know that when I am quite determined – I make something happen one way or another!” shouted Trudeau to journalists as he rolled on the ground to put out his burning clothes.
Liberal MPs applauded Trudeau’s decision, before promptly fleeing due to smoke inhalation and encroaching flames.
According to sources, Andrew Scheer was gleefully watching the flames consume the Liberal party from a safe distance, and vowing to avoid such problems in his future government by never selecting any Conservative candidates with an ounce of integrity. | 2019-04-22T22:22:30Z | https://www.thebeaverton.com/2019/04/trudeau-opts-to-put-out-fire-with-kerosene/ |

He was at it again on Monday, tweeting that since it was “really cold outside,” we “could use a big fat dose of global warming!” Sick burn, Donald!
Indeed, it’s been kind of cold on the East Coast over the last week. But, Trump’s local weather report notwithstanding, 2015 is still on track to be the warmest year on record, globally. And today, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration released data showing that this September was the hottest September on record (the records go back to 1880), following an August that also experienced record-breaking heat.
The dark red blob off the U.S. West Coast is El Niño, which is continuing to strengthen and is expected to produce above-average rain and snowfall in California this winter (although probably not enough to end the state’s epic drought).
Sorry, Donald. I think we have a big enough dose of global warming already. | 2019-04-23T16:34:45Z | https://grist.org/politics/donald-trump-is-wrong-about-climate-change-again/ |
The purpose of the volunteer program at Welland is to both increase food access by maintaining a productive Orchard using organic, holistic orcharding practices, and increase food literacy by educating volunteers on fruit tree care, harvest and use. We hope to make this process fun and engaging, and to this end have a few ways that volunteers can get involved in depending on what they’re looking for and what their time commitment is.
This program is for folks who really want to zero in on learning about specific aspects of fruit tree care, such as nutrition, pest & disease management and pruning. These volunteers will be mixing and applying holistic sprays, pruning trees and monitoring diseases & pests according to the season. They will be working closely with the Coordinator to implement the holistic tree care plan for the Orchard, which is based on the book The Holistic Orchard: Tree Fruits & Berries the Biological Way by Michael Phillips (book not provided).
Volunteers meet once monthly for a full day of orchard care where we will focus on tasks that are particular to each time of the year. Some of the topics we will cover include: pruning, grafting, nursery management, integrated pest management, fruit quality, and harvest.
Each session will run from 10 am to 4 pm on either Mondays or Tuesdays (to be determined) and will typically include one hour of teaching & observation at the orchard, followed by 4 hours of hands-on practice in managing a community orchard. At lunch break, which can be had picnic style in the park, participants will have the opportunity get to know each other and share their interest and expertise.
To apply, download and fill out the application form here and send it to Julia at [email protected] by Monday January 28th at noon. Please feel free to get in touch with any questions!
Work Bees are regular volunteer days when anyone who is wiling is welcome to come by and lend a hand with maintaining the orchard. These days are a great opportunity to familiarize yourself with the Orchard, meet new people, and learn a bit about fruit trees, pollinators or soil building. There’s a low commitment level, you can just come when you have a free Sunday. Tasks vary with the season, but generally work bees are family friendly times to come and pitch in on things like mulching, weeding, fruit thinning, or harvest; each time is a little bit different.
Work Bees are every 1st and 3rd Sunday of the month from March to October (except holiday weekends). In the spring & fall we meet in the afternoon to take advantage of warmer afternoons, and in the summer we meet in the morning before it gets too hot to work!
Dates for 2019 will be announced soon!
If you are interested in helping with pruning in February, please email the Coordinator at [email protected] with your availability (weekdays or weekends) and level of pruning experience (beginners welcome! We just also need enough experienced folks to help out too). Pruning dates will be scheduled based on volunteer availability.
To stay up-to-date with times & activities for the drop-in work parties, sign up for our email list by sending a message to our Coordinator (see above email) and/or ‘like’ our Facebook page and keep an eye out for upcoming events.
Is your school or workplace looking for an opportunity to get their hands dirty, spend the day outside working together & contribute to an amazing community project? If yes, get in touch! Email [email protected] for more information. | 2019-04-20T10:18:14Z | http://lifecyclesproject.ca/our-projects/welland-community-orchard/volunteer/ |
Reckitt Benckiser conducted its recruitment drive on Monday, September 10, 2018 at the IBA Main Campus. The session was attended by more than 300 students.
Syed Ismail Ali, Campus Ambassador of RB for the IBA, executed the session in coordination with the Career Development Center.

John Huang will be the guest host of Morning Tip Off WKJK1080 (also on iheart) at 8 am this Wednesday, August 1. Leading off for The Leach Report and Kentucky Sports Radio.
(LEXINGTON, Ky.) – The term “make or break” is far too often used to describe a season poised on the slippery slope of either astounding success or demoralizing failure. Once again this year, a tortured Kentucky football fan base is perched precariously on such a slope—with emotions running high and patience running low. Whether he likes it or not, head coach Mark Stoops finds himself in that proverbial make or break year entering his sixth season at the Wildcat helm. A 26-36 (12-28 SEC) won-loss record and back-to-back bowl appearances is nothing to scoff at, but neither is it something that will put talk of buyouts and hot seats to permanent rest. This is the year to poop or get off the pot, fish or cut bait, win big or strike out.
Stoops’ most lasting off-the-field legacy may just have been his ceremonial pitch at the Lexington Legends game this past summer. The 51-year-old Youngstown, Ohio native threw a perfect strike from the top of the mound. Not coincidentally, that evening was also Coach Mark Stoops Bobblehead night. As one of the many fans gifted with a plastic replica of his nodding oversized noggin, I thought it appropriate to ask Coach Bobblehead the following questions that all True Blue inquiring minds want to know.
Q: The first question deals obviously with the starting quarterback mystery. With Stephen Johnson graduated and Drew Barker giving up football, Kentucky is left with four potential starting quarterbacks who have never thrown a pass in a real live game. In this age of automatic redshirts and well-planned transitions, how does that even happen? Redshirt sophomores Gunnar Hoak and Touchdown Terry Wilson are apparently neck in neck for the starting honors against Central Michigan on September 1. Redshirt freshmen Danny Clark and Walker Wood remain a couple of steps behind. Whoever emerges the victor will have to rely on a veteran offensive line with at least one returning player at every position to offset their own youth and inexperience. OK Coach, with that in mind, who’s going to start at QB this year?
Q: For somebody who built his reputation on coaching players in the secondary, Kentucky’s secondary under Stoops’ tutelage has been abysmal. Last season, the Wildcats finished 13th in the league in pass defense despite returning nearly every starter. The supposedly all-star caliber talent the likes of Chris Westry, Derrick Baity, Mike Edwards, Darius West, and Lonnie Johnson gave up a whopping 3,271 yards—tied for the second most yards given up by a Kentucky defense dating back to the end of World War II. The good news this year is that Kentucky’s defensive line should be much better, thus taking some of the pressure off of the aforementioned secondary. Despite the supposed improvement in the defense across the board, the coach is still responsible for covering the Florida receivers, right?
Q: Kentucky’s conference schedule may once again be their undoing. As is usual and customary every year, the so-called experts pick Stoops’ troops to finish near the bottom of the pack. As if road games at Florida, at Texas A&M, at Missouri, and at Tennessee weren’t challenging enough, the Wildcats also face a murderer’s row of returning all-star caliber opposing quarterbacks. Missouri’s Drew Lock, Vanderbilt’s Kyle Shurmur, South Carolina’s Jake Bentley, Georgia’s Jake Fromm, and Mississippi State’s Nick Fitzgerald all are back after finishing in the top 10 in passing in the league last year. Hey Coach, if you couldn’t stop them last year, how in the world do you expect to contain them this year?
Q: Back in the summer, Coach Stoops described the drug related arrest of former safety Marcus Walker as something that really hurt the program. That’s probably an understatement given the fact that police found more than $95,000 in cash and 52 grams of cocaine inside Walker’s apartment near campus. Although swiftly dismissed from the team, it simply was not a good look for everyone involved. The incident with sophomore offensive tackle E.J. Price and his bizarre tweets this past spring also wasn’t a good look for the program. There’s been so much speculation about what happened during the few hours that Price was apparently off and then mysteriously back on the team that I thought Coach Stoops might want to enlighten us.
Well, there you have it—an interview chocked full of as much information as if the real live Mark Stoops were here answering the questions. As you can see—just like the real Coach Stoops—Coach Bobblehead has remained fairly mum about many aspects of his team and how he expects the season to play out. Perhaps he’s feeling the pressure of the upcoming “make or break” year. It’s more likely that he’s biting his tongue right before unleashing his sixth-year juggernaut on an unsuspecting football world.
Do I think it’ll happen? It’s still a bit too early to tell. A lot will depend on quarterback play. Once Kentucky returns home from Gainesville after their tilt with the Florida Gators, things will begin to crystallize. That’s only the second game of the season, but I think we’ll know something by then. Any final thoughts, Coach?

Monmouthshire County Council staff once again showed their support and commitment to Fairtrade this past week as many came along to the two Fairtrade sales organised by the Council’s Sustainability Policy Officer, Hazel Clatworthy.
The Council are very grateful to a volunteer from the Usk Fairtrade Forum, who brought lots of stock along to sell in Usk’s County Hall, and to the Mustard Seed Shop in Magor Square who ran the sale in the Magor offices. In total, about £200 was spent on biscuits, chocolate and Fairtrade gifts and stocking fillers.
This means that the farmers, producers and craftspeople who produced these items have been paid a guaranteed, fair price for their work, and have also had a Fairtrade premium which their community can choose to invest in things like schools, healthcare, clean water and so on. | 2019-04-25T15:42:30Z | http://monmouthshirefairtrade.org.uk/fairtrade-sales-at-monmouthshire-county-council-offices/ |

The visitor guide to Rait in Perthshire with information about the town, attractions in the town, accommodation and hotels in Rait.
Rait is a small but beautiful, largely residential village in the Braes of Gowrie in Perthshire. The village overlook the low lying Carse of Gowrie and the River Tay beyond. Standing north of a minor road crossing the sidlaw Hills through the Glen of Rait, the village is seven miles north east of Perth. The en routes inside Rait are usually not used to go to anywhere else, so it helps in account of the survival of a settlement extremely charming. There is a large farm steading at the east end of Rait, which was built in 1837. Recently, this has been converted to become the Rait Antiques Centre.
Relatively ancient seat once held by the Bruces and now a wedding venue. Also has self-catering properties on the estate. | 2019-04-24T03:57:39Z | https://www.scotland.org.uk/guide/places/rait-visitor-guide |

The historical period over the glorious past came to an end to be followed by the most horrible era of all Jewish tragedies.
Oradea's 30,000 Jews shared the fate of the world Jewry and among the six million martyrs, we find the consecrated names of our own parents - children - brothers and sisters - loved ones. It is exclusively thanks to Colonel Imre Reviczky's humane attitude that the number of victims was not much higher.
Imre Reviczky remained a Human Being in the noblest sense of the word in a vast ocean of inhumanity. By all means available to him he tried to save the ill-fated Jews. He issued mass conscription orders to Labor Battalion units in Nagybanya (Baia-Mare) to save in this fashion Jewish men from sure death or suffering that otherwise awaited them, were they to be deported. He defended the Jewish slave laborers under his jurisdiction with unbelievable courage from the cruelty of the overseers, almost at the risk of his own life at times. He exerted his best effort in trying to mitigate their difficult situation. Among others, he gave special treatment to the Sephardic Chief Rabbi Halberstam of Kolozsvar (Cluj), exempting him from marching and all physical work by keeping him always at the district quarters. However, the gendarmes took advantage of a day when the Lieutenant Colonel was not on the premises and deported him to Auschwitz.
A street has been named in memory of Lieutenant Colonel Reviczky in the city of Sefad, Israel. The Yad Vashem Remembrance Authority awarded him the title of The Righteous Among The Nations.

reminder of: Kohn, the baker.
Aside from thirty-some thousand Jewish people who lived in Oradea, some smaller and larger Jewish communities existed in the surrounding provinces as well. Most of them had a temple, ritual institutions, and rabbinates.
This was a well-organized community. The first Jewish residents settled here in 1848, by permit from Count Stubenberg, owner of the locality at the time. The greater majority of this orthodox community lived a strictly observant lifestyle. They had already built an imposing synagogue between 1886 -1888. Chief Rabbi Juda Rosner z.c.l. was one of the distinguished members of the Hungarian Orthodox Rabbinate. A great Talmud scholar, he also led an important yeshiva abroad. Several hundreds of his students learned their basic Talmudic education there and they always remembered the merits and outstanding human virtues of the great Gaon with love and respect. The community maintained a secular school and a Talmudic school, both of high standard. The leaders of the congregation were: József Nussbaum, Salamon Farkas, Miklós Kohn, Sándor Klein, and Fábián Weisz. Salamon Mindszent, Jakab Roth, and Márton Kohn distinguished themselves as gabbayims. The moving force behind the dynamic Zionist life in Székelyhíd was Jenoo Weisz. Ödön Róth and József Farkas took active part in the works of the K.K.L. Erno Róth, Nándor Rosenberg, etc., were altruistic activists in the life of the community. Naturally, the Jews of Székelyhíd also became victims of the great Jewish tragedy and suffered through all the horrors of labor service, ghettoization, and deportation. Only about 90 people survived from this 800-member Jewish community. Jahrzeit to honor the dead is commemorated on the holiday of Shavuot.
Today there are no Jews living in this important locality. The synagogue was demolished and the survivors immigrated, mostly to Israel. The same applies to former Jewish residents of neighboring villages Kiskereki, Érdolaszi, Érköbölkút, Hegyköz, Szentmiklós, Szentjobb, Nagykágya, and Csokoly.
Nagybárod was a main congregation that included the Jewish population of the following localities: Kisbárod, Cseklye, Nagypatak, Sonkolyos, Banlaka, Bárod-Somos, Bucsa, Feketetó, and Feketepatak. From the beginning of the XVIIIth century, they already recorded vital statistics here from Csucsa to Mezotelegd. Chief Rabbi Ráv Ámrám Jesájáhu Müller, who resided in Mezotelegd, officiated here before deportation. They had rebuilt the synagogue in 1919 and had a variety of institutions mikvah, Talmud-Tóra, etc., - for the benefit of the members. Mór Schwartz, who enjoyed great popularity and respect based on his personal qualities, was President of the Jewish Community for many years. Mihály Rosmann and Bernát Gross were the trustees. Jeno Hemlei and Albert Salamon managed the business of the Chevra Kadisha. As in the case of the other neighboring villages, all Jews from Nagybárod were also first taken to Osi Telep in Nagyvárad, and then deported. The only exception was a war widow, Helén Packer, who succeeded in hiding the Torah scrolls and other religious relics. She later made aliyah and died in Pardesz Cháná. At the time of her aliyah, she brought along an abandoned child who lived with a family of farmers, thus saving him. The locality had a population of 204 Jewish people.
Originally, this locality belonged to the Chief Rabbinate of Oradea, however, Chief Rabbi Benjamin Fuchs relinquished it in a noble gesture, saying: "I wish to give an opportunity and assure a livelihood to young talented rabbis." The community in Élesd had a beautiful synagogue and the usual ritual institutions. It elected Ráv Sámuel Klein (Schmelke), son of R. Jákob Solem Klein of Halm, as its Chief Rabbi. The great Talmud scholar and popular chief rabbi shared the tragic fate of his congregants, including his wife and ten children. He was deported and did not survive. There were 372 Jews living in Élesd. The survivors of deportation resettled in part in Oradea, while others emigrated.
This locality, with approximately 30 Jewish families, belonged to the Rabbinate of Oradea. Lázár Sternberg established here a flourmill and oil press with a large production capacity. Later, his three sons-in-law, Sámuel Nussbaum, Ármin Selzer, and Vilmos Stern took over the management of the mill and the estate. At the same time, they held important roles in the domain of Jewish public life. Ármin Selzer, an excellent scholar of the Hebrew language, was a prominent personality within the Mizrahi leadership. He made aliyah to Israel in time, while the others were deported. Today, there are no Jews living in this township.
Similarly, this village also belonged to the Rabbinate of Oradea, yet by favor of Chief Rabbi Benjámin Fuchs, Ráv Mose Zvi Adler, a highly distinguished and learned Talmud scholar functioned as rabbi in this locality. Ráv Adler was the son-in-law of E. Moshe Klein, the "réter ruf", Rabbi of the Temple Poálé Cedek in Oradea. He published several Talmudic works. Diószeg was one of the oldest Jewish settlements, Jews having lived here in the XVIIIth century. In 1944, the community had 196 Jewish residents.
A well organized community with a large membership functioned in this locality until deportation. Chief Rabbi Ráv Zvi Kohn officiated here until he was eleceted Chief Rabbi of the Derecske congregation. The community had 137 Jewish members.
This town became independent from the Oradea Rabbinate already by the consent of Chief Rabbi Landesberg of Oradea. The first elected chief rabbi was Rabbi Mordecháj Léb Winkler, one of the great Gaons of his time. He authored several Halachic works. Later, Chief Rabbi R. József Cháim Fischmann, son of the renouned R. Feish Fischmann - famous Mágid of Pozsony functioned as rabbi. After his death, his son-in-law, Ráv Ámrám Jesájáhu Müller followed in the rabbinical seat. Before deportation approximately 100 Jewish families lived in Mezotelegd. Presently, one or two survivors live in this township.
The so-called Sternberg Mill from this village provided in part the flour to the bakeries of Oradea. After Mr. Sternberg's death, his sons-in-law, Ábrahám Rosenbaum and Herman Neumann took over the management of the mill. The congregation had 40 members.
In the larger communities of Bihar County, such as Bihar (108 Jews), Rév (63 Jews), the Jewish population reached a few hundred. However, there were smaller villages where only one or two Jews lived. They made their meager living from small grocery stores or taverns. Nonetheless, there were cases where Jews owned large estates and had important social standing.
It was February 13, 1944 when Eva Heyman wrote her first notes in the diary. "I turned thirteen - on 13 and I was born on a Friday."
She wrote these lines in the house of her grandfather, Dr. Rezso Racz. (Dr. Rezso Racz's father - Dr. Sandor Rosenberg - was Chief Rabbi of the Oradea Neologue Jewish Community and later moved to Arad.) Eva lived with her grandparents, because her parents divorced and her mother (whom in her diary she calls Agi) remarried. She became the wife of Bela Zsolt, the well-known writer and publicist. Because of the many problems Bela Zsolt encountered at that time, his wife did not move from his side. "This is my first birthday, for which Agi did not come - she writes. I know she will have surgery, but she still could have come. There are doctors in Oradea as well. She didn't come home for my thirteenth birthday. Agi is happy now. Uncle Bela was freed from prison..."
The last recording in the diary dates to May 30, 1944. The fate of the Oradea Jewry has been decided during these three months. The value of the diary consists in the fact that it reflects the atmosphere of those tragic days - the anarchy, the glimmering hope and the despair. Orders are passed in the first days following March 19: the Jews are gasping, perhaps they can hide a few things, perhaps something can be saved. The liquidation however, is prepared according to precisely worked out and psychologically tested plans. When the ghetto-order is made public, people virtually become paralyzed. We were waiting for three days that they come to take us. We were waiting in the house and watching for the arrival of the police. "Little Diary, I have never been this afraid" - confesses Eva.
Without a doubt, Eva's diary is a priceless document, left by an exceptionally talented thirteen year old girl, the honest testimony to the tragedy of the European Jewry. An adult could never arrive to such a level of honesty. This little girl sees everything, hears everything, takes note of everything. She is filled with death premonitions, and though she does not mention them as such, every line she writes is a cry for help to a different, better, more truthful world. As her contemporaries in the other ghettos, Eva Heyman is also writing, to leave testimony of the suffering and injustice. Let the world know what happened in Europe in the middle of the twentieth century!
Eva Heyman could not escape, but she tries to save the Diary. When her grandmother's former Christian maid, Mariska Szabo is allowed into the ghetto for a few minutes by a "friendly gendarme", she secretly passes on the Diary to her and entrusts her to keep it safe.
Mrs. Bela Zsolt published Eva's Diary in 1948 in Budapest, while the Hebrew version was published in 1964 in Jerusalem. Dr. Lajos Marton describes the history of the Oradea Jewry, its social and cultural characteristics, speaks about Eva's family and about the atmosphere in which the Diary was born, in a twelve page introduction for the Hebrew version. Additionally, he wrote explanatory notes to the text, to render in a concise manner ideas that are foreign to the Hebrew reader.
Otherwise, this was the first volume Yad Vashem has consecrated to the catastrophy that has befallen the Hungarian Jews.
In his introductory study, Dr. Lajos Marton also discusses some problems of the Diary. First, he raises the question of authenticity, then examines, whether the Hungarian published text of the Diary is the same with that of the handwritten version? After having considered the concrete facts and logical premises, he arrives at the conclusion that the "text of the Diary is probably authentic."
Dr. Marton spoke to Mrs. Friedlander, who according to the Diary wasAgi's best friend, and she said that after liberation she heard about the existence of the Diary. She also knew that Agi has weighed at lengthwithin herself the idea of publishing it.
We too, believe that the text of the Diary is authentic, but notnecessarily complete. It arrived to the press in a shortened version. This operation has been carried out by Agi. (Eva's mother).
On the last page of the Diary there is mention of the fact that Bela Zsolt's family is preparing to escape from the Oradea ghetto. "Agi and Uncle Bela are whispering something now, that we may staybehind in a typhus hospital, supposedly we will say that uncle Bela hastyphoid fever. This may be possible, as he had it in the Ukraine"- writes Eva.
As we see, Eva was also included in the escape plan. However,when it comes to execution, only Bela Zsolt and his wife escaped. They first got to Budapest, then with the Kastner group via Bergen Belsento Switzerland.
Who knows what happened within the emotional world of the little girlknowing that her mother escaped without her? Without a doubt, EvaHeyman, who so honestly and openly spoke about everything in her diary, did not hide her life's biggest disappointment.
The text we have in our possession however, makes no mention of any of these items.
According to us, this is the explanation why Agi has "considered at length within herself the idea of publishing the Diary."
The mother's dilemma, however was not solved by this either. It has not calmed her raw emotional state.
Eva's Diary hardly saw the light of publishing, when Agi reached for the poison and ended her greatly agitated, bumpy, unfortunate and conflicted life.
Somehow, word got around that uncle Bela and Agi were here and in the afternoon, Agi's girl friends came over. Uncle Bela was visited by his best friend in Oradea, uncle Sandor Friedlander. A large crowd has gathered, when uncle Bela and uncle Sandor Friedlander went out to a cafe. Less than ten minutes later, uncle Bela and uncle Sandor Friedlander came back, both of them white as the wall. I can still here uncle Sandor's voice: We are all ruined, the Germans are in Budapest since this morning.
Today they came from the Jewish Community and they took away nearly all the linen. The Germans request almost daily something from the Jews, one day the typewriter, another day the carpets, today the bed linen. First, grandmother tried to negotiate, then she said it was futile, and let them take it. She did not even want to make selections, she handed the keys to the linen closet to these total strangers, the same keys which in the olden days she would not easily give even to Juszti or Agi.
Juszti came by again today. Her eyes were red from crying, as if she were Jewish herself. She says she will die because she can't save me - whom she loves most in this world - from possibly what awaits me.
Grandmother Lujza was very happy to see me, she is very calm. She says she doesn't mind if she has to die. Yes, but she is 72 and I am only 13 years old. Grandmother Lujza is worried only about my father, my aunt, aunt Lilli and myself. She says that now it is of utmost importance to stay healthy, because then one can endure everything. While there, a lady came in running with the news that Emil Vaiszlovics was arrested and taken to the Elementary School on Koros Street. They broke into his hotel and the Germans and Hungarians robbed him of everything they could. Even though grandmother is not on speaking terms with Emil Vaiszlovics, she was still terrified. Grandmother Lujza believed that they will not dare touch Emil Vaiszlovics, after having been beaten up by the Romanians because he was so pro Hungarian. Grandmother Lujza questioned if it has been worthwhile for Emil to be so 'Hungarian'...Now they even helped the Germans rob the hotel, instead of defending him.
My little Dairy, from now on I see everything as a dream... We started to pack, taking from everything the quantity Agi has seen written on the poster. I know it is not a dream, but I can't believe it. We can also take bed linen, but we don't know when they are coming to take us, so we can't pack the bed linen just yet. Agi is making coffee all day long for uncle Bela and grandmother is drinking cognac. No one says a word. My little Diary, I was never so afraid!
I have no idea how it will be later, I always think this is the worst, then I realize on my own that everything can become even worse, actually much worse. Until now, there was food to eat, now we won't have any. On the inside of the ghetto we could visit one another, now we are not allowed to get out of the house...Agi doesn't mind anything if they only leave us alive, that is what she keeps constantly saying... Last night I dreamed of Juszti, my little Diary, and in the morning I woke up crying.
You see, my little Diary, I told you the other day that everything could be worse? You see how right I was? They started the interrogations at the Dreher beer factory. You know my little Dairy, the gendarms don't believe the Jews that they have nothing left... Now everyone in the house is shaking with fear, wondering when are they going to be taken in for a beating at the Dreher.
Patience daddy, this can't last forever!
My little Diary, now it all comes to an end! The ghetto has been subdivided into districts and they are taking us all away.
My little Diary, everyone says that we will remain in Hungary, that they gather the Jews from the entire country somewhere around the Balaton region for work. But I don't believe it. It must be terrible in the freight car and now nobody is saying any longer that they are taking us, but rather that they are "deporting" us. I have not heard this word so far and Agi says to uncle Bela: Bela, don't you understand, they are deporting us! A gendarme is walking up and down in front of the house. Yesterday, he was in the Rhedey Park, because that is from where the Jews are being deported. Not from the real train station, as here the town's people can't see them - says grandfather.
Much do the town's people care. If the Aryans didn't want it, they could have stopped our ghettoization. But they were rather enjoying it and even now they don't care what will happen to us.
This gendarme, whom uncle Bela calls a friendly gendarme, because he never yells at us and doesn't address women in the familiar form, came in the backyard and told us that he will live the police force, because it is inhuman what he has witnessed in the Rhedey Park.
They forced 80 people in freight cars and they gave them altogether only one bucket of drinking water. But it is still more awful that they are sealing the cars with padlocks. People will surely suffocate in this terrible heat! The gendarme said he truly didn't understand these Jews. Not even the children cried. They were all like sleepwalkers. They got into those cars stiff, without a word.
The friendly gendarme didn't sleep all night, while other times, he said he is fast asleep as soon as he puts his head down. This was such a horrific view, he related, that even he could not sleep. Even though he is a gendarme!
Now Agi and uncle Bela whispered something about us remaining behind in a typhus hospital. Supposedly, we will say that uncle Bela has contacted typhoid fever. This is possible, because he had it earlier while in the Ukraine. I don't know, I trust mostly nothing, I can only think of Marta and I am afraid that the same thing will happen to us as it did to her, even though everyone says that we are not going to Poland, but only to Balaton.
Yet, my little Diary, I don't want to die, I still want to live, even if it means that only I remain behind from this entire district. I would wait for the end of the war in a cellar, or in the attic, or any hole, I would, my little Diary, I would even allow that cross-eyed gendarme who took the flour from us to kiss me, only not to be killed, only to be left alive! | 2019-04-22T01:02:12Z | https://www.jewishgen.org/yizkor/oradea/oradea320.html |

All too often a diagnosis of arthritis is offered up for non-specific pain, especially with regards to the lower limb. Sometimes even when the diagnosis is correct it is viewed as non-resolvable and to be accepted without treatment other than non-steroidal antinflammatories. As medical/clinical specialists it is often easy to allow factors like age, weight, general health, trauma or limited mobility, cloud our judgement or limit our diagnostic capabilities.
This show addresses the necessity for all of us, myself included, to question the appropriateness of such diagnoses and if correct, the need to investigate the underlying cause. Very often it is possible to find ways to minimize and even eliminate the causitive forces, thus increasing mobility, comfort and prolonging the functional life span of joint in question.
In our field of practice the way an individual walks will often increase or acclerate the destruction of a joint. Alternatively the pain associated with that joint may be influencing their gait. In discovering which is these is the actual case for each individual, we assess all the diagnostic information and then most importantly then review video images of the patient walking.
Several years ago I found myself in just such a situation with regards to the destruction of my right knee joint. Due to an inherited structural misalignment, the cartilage was all but eroded away. Having had a couple of orthopaedic consultations and surgical interventions I was presented with the prospect of awaiting an eventual knee replacement in the not so distant future and told to cutail my passion for watersports and snowboarding. Fortunately, an encounter with an enlightened orthopaedic surgeon witha good understanding of structure and function, resulted in a Tibial Osteotomy, and changes to my functional orthotics. Thanks to Dr. Giffin of the Fowler Kennedy Institute, in London, Ontario, I just bid farewell to another fantastic painfree kiteboarding season, and now pray for snow in Southern Ontario, so I can hit the slopes with my sons in the coming days. | 2019-04-22T06:40:32Z | http://www.podiatryassociates.ca/blog/date/2012-12-01.html |

What do Bone Broth, Veggie Broth and Elderberry Syrup have in common?
How does immune boosting, inflammation busting, antioxidant loaded, cold and flu preventing, digestion helping sound? And those are just a few of the benefits in these marvelous homemade concoctions, plus they all taste fantastic and have multiple uses!
Before sugar plums start dancing, turkeys are basting, pies begin baking, cookies are rolling…first, let’s work on boosting our immune systems, because full confession, I love all things Thanksgiving and Christmas, especially all of the wonderful goodies and foods, but I do recognize that we need to keep our systems running and it’s a known fact that sugar depresses the immune system.
Here are three recipes that you can make over the weekend, that separately or together will do marvelous things for your body!
First give this amazing Beef Bone Broth a try, I’ve long know about the benefits, but honestly hadn’t made it — until a couple of weeks ago! And WOW, have I been missing out, BIG TIME! Cook with it, sip it, make it!
Next, try this incredible Homemade Vegetable Broth, infused with great flavors and loaded with vitamins and minerals! Wonderful to use anywhere you’d normally use vegetable broth, or drink it all by itself.
Lastly, as a daily tonic, for all ages! Give this Homemade Elderberry Syrup a whirl, for everyone from your toddler to Granny! Stir into yogurt, drink it straight, toss a shot into your smoothie.
Plan for it, or save it for after the new year, when we all decide to eat healthier, but I encourage you to try and make at least one of these before the holiday season. Let’s arm ourselves for the upcoming flu and cold season!
May the Lord bless and keep you, may He make His face shine upon you, may He give you rest when you are weary, strength when you are weak, hope when you are hopeless.
I hope you can creatively get them to eat them. The broths while wonderful by themselves may seem a bit more palatable if made into a delicious soup! The syrup I don’t think you’ll have to disguise! Pray you are healing!!
This looks really intriguing! Do I use in place of ‘cooking stock’ in recipes or does the recipe actually need to call for bone broth? Is it a 1:1 ratio?
1:1 my friend. Doesn’t need to call for bone broth at all, you’ll just have a richer more flavorful broth less likely to need to add a lot of additional seasonings to whatever you put it in. Thanks K, so appreciate you!! | 2019-04-25T06:59:14Z | https://www.thefreshcooky.com/immune-boosters-cold-flu-fighter/ |
The Beovision 8902 was a stereo version of the Beovision 8802. In countries where the Beovision 8900 had been sold it replaced this model, though in the UK it was, along with the smaller Beovision 7802, the first stereo Beovision model to be offered. Text copyright © Beocentral. Unauthorised reproduction prohibited.
Although at the time of its introduction there were no stereo TV broadcasts in the UK, stereo video tapes had become available and the Beocord range offered two new models, the Beocord VHS 80 and VHS 90, to play them. The stereo Beovisions were the natural companions to these new machines, especially as the Beovision Video Terminal remote control unit provided with the Beovision could operate the Beocord as well. Text copyright © Beocentral. Unauthorised reproduction prohibited.
The Beovision 8902 used the same 77XX series chassis as the Beovision 8802 and offered identical picture performance. It was fitted with a 26” 30AX tube which allowed a slim cabinet to be produced, the appearance of which was accentuated by the increased width of the frontage. The audio system comprised two high quality loudspeaker systems (the woofers of which were housed in resin bass-reflex cabinets held in place by resilient rubber mounts), a 2x15W Hi-Fi stereo amplifier and an A2 stereo decoder (though A2 broadcasts were never radiated in the UK). Stereo AV sources (video tape, video disc, home computer) could be connected directly via either the DIN A/V or the SCART socket (a new feature in the Beovision range). Extra loudspeakers and stereo headphones could also be connected. Text copyright © Beocentral. Unauthorised reproduction prohibited.
A new cabinet finish was offered for the Beovision 8902 (and the 7802): Whiteline. Whiteline went beyond the white cabinet inlays that had been available for Beovisions since the 8800 inasmuch as now the whole cabinet back was white, as was the Beovision Video Terminal (a special version made for Whiteline sets only). Whiteline models cost more than the standard teak/rosewood ones but they did include a factory fitted teletext decoder. Text copyright © Beocentral. Unauthorised reproduction prohibited.
The Beovision 8902 was deleted from the range when the LX series made its first appearance in 1987. The model which directly replaced it was the LX 2800. Text copyright © Beocentral. Unauthorised reproduction prohibited. | 2019-04-18T16:31:21Z | https://beocentral.com/beovision8902 |

Listener Hannah wrote in after shadowing physicians, noting that many of the morbidly obese patients she observed resisted their doctors’ advice to lose weight.

"Royalty or not, it’s always a bad idea to police women’s bodies and wardrobes."
In this op-ed, writer Mekita Rivas unpacks the sexist reaction to Meghan Markle's thigh-high slit dress and explains why it's never OK to shame women for their clothing.
Now that she’s expecting her first child with Prince Harry, Meghan Markle is in the spotlight like never before. Currently, the parents-to-be are currently embarking on a tour of several countries belonging to the British Commonwealth. Their first stop? Australia, where it just so happens to be springtime, a season that typically calls for breezy dresses and sleeveless tops. So, it makes sense that Meghan chose to wear a maxi dress with thin straps and a thigh slit from Reformation during an appearance.
Shaming women for their clothing is unfortunately nothing new, and the Duchess of Sussex has definitely received a lot of heat for breaking archaic royal fashion protocols in the past. She’s worn wedges despite the fact that the Queen reportedly dislikes the shoe style. She’s also gone bare-legged when the rules state that she’s supposed to wear stockings with dresses and skirts. | 2019-04-20T05:10:40Z | https://www.teenvogue.com/story/meghan-markle-thigh-high-slit-reformation-dress-australia |

Every corporate in the world is focused on smoothing out its operations to provide a more seamless experience for both its clients and workers. In turn, it’s expected that the company will become more efficient in its operations which will then translate into increased profits. One such focus to promote productivity in the workplace involves the use of online PDF creators and converters to handle all the PDF work. Of the many such tools online, sodapdf has stood out. A good PDF creator should have several qualities that make it an asset to people using it. Here are some of the reasons why corporates need to adopt the culture of using online PDF creators.
At the office, your workflow is quite essential. With positive workflow, you can be sure to get everything in your to-do list. An online PDF solution doesn’t mean that it’s less effective than the usual PDF solutions that need to be installed to use. By embracing onlinePDF solutions, you get everything a regular PDF program can do but with the added layer of portability and comfort.
Today, many people believe that work is where they are. They don’t need to be in the office to get some work done. This is the beauty of an online PDF platform. Online PDF platforms assist the user to have all the power and functionality a normal PDF processor has so that you can be able to get some work done wherever you are in a café, train, or even a plane.
Teamwork in the workplace bears some really wonderful fruit. When the members of a team are working together as a unit, solving problems and getting things done becomes that much easier. With access to your OneDrive, Google Drive and Evernote, you can very easily permit others to edit the content. In case some signatures are needed by various parties, it can also be made possible with electronic signatures.
Due to the sensitive nature of content in some documents and memos, online PDF platforms give the user an opportunity to enhance their security. In fact, online platforms such as ourselves take security very seriously and hand our customers some features we know can make a difference in their everyday life. These features include whiteout, password encryption, redaction, digital certificates and so much more. By using these features, you can make sure that only the right eyes see a certain document.
Every corporate knows how important productivity in the workplace is. With online PDF platforms, you can take care of every PDF related need from the comfort of any device of your choosing. By keeping everything on a digital platform, tasks such as finding certain documents becomes a lot easier because of the simpler querying. Placing an entire platform online means that you can carry your work wherever you decide. With all the features packed on there and others also on the way, it’s possible to create every sort of PDF and convert them from one form to another online. | 2019-04-22T16:49:00Z | https://techfire.in/online-pdf-converters/ |
We rely on donations to pay our authors and keep the lights on. Help us bring you more great posts like this.For the past couple of years, the demand for better representation has been pretty heated between those who have it and those who don’t. If you are white, male, straight, and cisgender, then you’re in the first group. If you’re not, then you’re tired of not seeing yourself and seeing bad representations of yourself in the media you enjoy. Yet, there are also some who have so little decent representation that they feel threatened by other groups who want the same.
Recently, I came across a tweet from a black freelance writer named Rebecca Theodore. The tweet was reacting to the claim that Asian American kids don’t need superheroes because they have Jackie Chan and anime. The surprising thing was that the claim was made by a random black guy who was responding to Theodore’s support of an Asian American Iron Fist. Not only is this idea ridiculous, but it also promotes the idea that marginalized identities are only allowed a certain amount of representation. This way of thinking makes it seem like if one marginalized identity starts getting representation, other marginalized identities won’t have any.
In fact, this idea is especially harmful for any marginalized identity that needs representation. Black guys who feel threatened by an Asian American Iron Fist are no different from white guys who feel threatened by a black Mary Jane or Iris West. When actress Zendaya Coleman was originally announced as Mary Jane, people got upset that a black woman that would be playing a character that was originally a white redhead. In a similar reaction, some of fandom for the television series The Flash has been making racist comments about actress Candice Patton. Yet, no one said outright that black women didn’t need to be in superhero projects until a black woman started to demand them.
Back in August, another black Twitter user @MistyKnightsTwistOut called for a superhero film starring a black woman and received so much backlash that she coined the term “Catwoman Defense”. People kept asking her, “What about Storm?” and “What about Catwoman?” while not considering the fact that these characters had lackluster portrayals on-screen. In fact, lackluster representations are often all marginalized people get.
I didn’t get into superhero fandom until recently because superhero films made me feel out of place as a queer woman of color. I would watch Storm shoot a few lightning bolts to help out the other X-Men and Catwoman fight another woman and feel nothing at all. The more films I saw, the more I became convinced that all women of color could do was look pretty, help the men, and fall in love with men. Everything changed once I discovered Ms. Marvel’s Kamala Khan.
Earlier this year, I bought Volumes 1-4 of the Ms. Marvel Kamala Khan comics and finally found a superhero like me. She was brown like me and nerdy like me and I really loved it. I especially related to the comic’s first arc, where Kamala learns that she doesn’t have to sacrifice her personal and cultural identities to be a superhero. Kamala Khan gave me the representation I’d never thought I’d get and I started to explore more superhero comics as a result.
A similar event occurred after I watched Marvel’s Luke Cage a few weeks ago. Even though its main protagonist is a black male, I could see some of myself in him as well as female characters like Misty Knight and Claire Temple. As someone with an Asian mom, I was also happy to see an Asian couple that reflected some of my experiences with her. Seeing myself reflected in this show made me want to start watching other superhero shows. As of today, I am more than halfway through season 1 of The Flash and enjoy it just as much as Luke Cage. One character in particular, Iris West, has made me want to become a superhero journalist.
Just because Asian people have Jackie Chan and anime doesn’t mean that they should be satisfied. Just because black people have Luke Cage and Black Panther doesn’t mean black women should be satisfied. It is bad enough that white guys tell marginalized identities to settle. Marginalized identities shouldn’t tell each other the same. Both black and Asian people supported Luke Cage because they saw themselves. If we can do that, then marginalized identities can learn to keep supporting each other while demanding better representation.

A team of researchers has discovered that chemoresistant lung cancer cells suppress immune functions and strengthen resistance to chemotherapy by producing interleukin-34 (IL-34) — a type of cytokine.
Chemoresistant cancer cells secrete IL-34, which induces production of immunosuppressive macrophages and enhances chemoresistance of the cancer cells.
Chemotherapy is one of the most important treatments for many cancer patients. In recent years, chemotherapies that target the immune system have been developed, resulting in remarkable advances in cancer treatments. However, the ability of tumor cells to escape immune destruction and acquire resistance to chemotherapy remain major obstacles to effective cancer therapy.
It is known that immunosuppressive macrophages accumulate at tumor sites where the tumor cells have become resistant to chemotherapy. Assistant Professor Muhammad Baghdadi, Lecturer Haruka Wada and Professor Ken-ichiro Seino of the Division of Immunobiology at Hokkaido University’s Institute for Genetic Medicine, conducted research with collaborators based on a theory that chemoresistant tumor cells produce an unidentified substance that increases tumor-associated macrophages, thus enhancing their resistance to chemotherapy.
In the latest research, the team cultivated chemosensitive A549-DS, made from A549 lung cancer cells, together with the chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin, to create doxorubicin-resistant A549-DR. The researchers examined the two cells, finding a large amount of IL-34 was produced in the A549-DR, but not in the A549-DS. They also found that the IL-34 produced by A549-DR contributed to the production of immunosuppressive macrophages. Furthermore, their experiment showed that IL-34 enhanced the chemoresistance of A549-DR.
In experiments using mice, researchers found that A549-DR was resistant to the chemotherapeutic drug when transplanted in mice, while A549-DR with depleted IL-34 became sensitive to the same drug, suggesting that IL-34 enhanced chemoresistance in the animal body.
Furthermore, researchers discovered high levels of IL-34 in tumors removed from several lung cancer patients. They also examined the prognoses of post-operative patients — studying those with, and those without IL-34 in their tumors, finding that the former’s prognoses were poorer than the latter’s. | 2019-04-24T01:09:07Z | https://scienmag.com/il-34-new-possible-target-tackle-drug-resistant-cancer-cells/ |
Colin Bateman, the cricket correspondent for the Daily Express, has written this hilarious account of what happens when he and a disparate group of friends (aged 19-71) set off for a 1100 mile charity bike ride around all 18 of the cricket counties of England and Wales. They had no idea what perils lay in wait around the next bend. And neither did the guest riders who joined them for a day here and there, and included former England cricketers Angus Fraser and Steve James, both of whom have contributions to make to this tale of two wheels.String Fellows reveals the tensions that build up when six good friends are taken out of their comfort zone for 16 days of pain and pleasure in the saddle. The story takes us around the by-ways of Britain, exploring its curious folk and folklore. It tells very personal tales of each county cricket club and what exactly makes Britain ‘grate’ when viewed from the saddle on another back-breaking climb into a cruel head-wind. You do not have to like cycling to cricket to enjoy this humorous tale but by the end of it you probably will.
For generations the traditional focus for those wishing to understand the roots of the modern world has been France on the eve of the Revolution. Porter certainly acknowledges France's importance, but here makes an overwhelming case for consideringBritain the true home of modernity - a country driven by an exuberance, diversity and power of invention comparable only to twentieth-century America. Porter immerses the reader in a society which, recovering from the horrors of the Civil War and decisively reinvigorated by the revolution of 1688, had emerged as something new and extraordinary - a society unlike any other in the world. | 2019-04-21T20:27:37Z | http://fodreport.net/full/hacking-it-tales-of-a-very-provincial-newspaper-journalist/ |
THURSDAY, May 24, 2018 (HealthDay News) — South Asians in the United States have increased proportional mortality rates from atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), although there are no unique risk factors in this population, according to a scientific statement from the American Heart Association published online May 24 in Circulation.
Annabelle Santos Volgman, M.D., from the Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, and colleagues address the prevalence of and risk factors associated with ASCVD among South Asians in the United States. South Asians represent one of the fastest-growing ethnic groups in the United States.
The researchers note that in contrast to the finding that Asian Americans aggregated as a group are at lower risk of ASCVD (largely due to the lower risk in East Asian populations), South Asians have higher proportional mortality rates from ASCVD compared with other Asian groups and non-Hispanic whites. Based on a review of the current literature relevant to South Asian populations, the biology of ASCVD is no different in South Asians than any other racial/ethnic group. Most of the risk in South Asians can be explained by the increased prevalence of known risk factors, including those related to insulin resistance. In this population, no unique risk factors have been found.
“This scientific statement focuses on how ASCVD risk factors affect the South Asian population to make recommendations for clinical strategies to reduce disease and for directions for future research to reduce ASCVD in this population,” the authors write. | 2019-04-20T20:23:56Z | https://www.physiciansweekly.com/atherosclerotic-cvd-mortality-higher-in-south-asians-in-the-u-s/ |
Welcome to Gratitude House of Dallas, TX – An upscale & structured transitional sober living home for men in recovery from drug addiction, alcoholism and dual-diagnosis issues.
The Dallas/Ft Worth Area has become well known for its broad array of notable and highly recognized addiction recovery resources. From drug rehabs to transitional sober living homes and various independent recovery resources, there is no shortage of options here for those whom are within the grips of addiction and/or alcoholism. As the science of recovery and its many forms makes new strides, we at Gratitude House continue to focus on integrating both, classic recovery principles along with new formulas & approaches in helping our residents build new lives and strong foundations in their new-found sobriety!
Gratitude House is much more than “sober living;” as a matter of fact we offer one of the few transitional aftercare/sober living residences throughout Dallas, Texas that is actually owned & operated by a LICENSED PROFESSIONAL COUNSELOR. There is much more to see and learn about our beautiful environment and positive, proactive atmosphere – MORE INFORMATION.
The most common scenario as to the role a sober living residence will play during the course of one’s recovery process, is that of a transitioning environment following residential drug rehab/addiction treatment and prior to resuming a return to total independence. Since the recovery process essentially entails a complete overhaul of mind, body & spirit nearly all addiction treatment professionals agree that a 30, 60, 90 day inpatient program is but a beginning and must be bolstered by a gradual entry into this new sober way of life if one is to best ensure long-term recovery. In the case of Gratitude House, however, various clinical and practical components exist within our structure that not only improve our resident’s long-term success rates, but in some cases our services can even present a very affordable solution to high-cost, cookie-cutter residential treatment! | 2019-04-21T02:51:48Z | http://gratitudehouses.com/ |

The prevalent approach in Western countries towards health is generally based on symptom care rather than on health prevention and promotion.
Usually we begin to deal with our health when there is something wrong with it, instead of taking care of it in advance, through conscious daily choices about food, movement, sleep, stress management, and so on: in short, our everyday lifestyle. Commonly we prioritise other duties and interests ahead of a focus on healthy lifestyle throughout our younger years and address health concerns when they arise later in life.
This kind of approach, focussing on symptoms, makes it necessary to look for immediate and fast solutions once the problem arises, without worrying about the reason for it, and without a more comprehensive view and a long-term management of the problem.
Just to give you a couple of examples: keeping an incorrect posture at work, never exercising, or eating too many preserved and processed foods, can cause, among other things, headaches. BUT, instead of changing posture, starting to do some yoga classes, or eating more fresh and whole foods and avoiding bad wine, if I have a headache I will probably take a tablet to address it. Easy! Or, let’s say I do not drink enough water, I smoke often and I do not eat enough healthy foods, so my skin is dry, opaque and wrinkled. Instead of drinking more, quitting smoking and eating more vegetables and nuts, I will probably buy an expensive face cream. Much easier!
This approach applies perfectly to weight management and diet as well, but with even more complex facets. The weight gain which leads to overweight and obesity, as well as other eating related issues, develop gradually over years through every daily lifestyle choice, every repeated unconscious behaviour we put in place, and many other factors we don’t notice or overlook, which become consolidated habits, routines, needs and preferences, and which also bring slow and imperceptible changes in the body and the brain.
But at some point, after years of this lifestyle, we realize that we can no longer keep going that way, because the clothes are no longer fitting, we feel often tired and off, or we have constant issues like reflux or constipation, SO we immediately look for a fast solution, the panacea for all corporate ills, that can make everything disappear in a moment, no matter the process that has led to that condition over time. A magic pill, a magic diet, or the super-food of the week.
The point is that a strict diet certainly can make you lose a lot of weight in the short run, but it will bring more weight in the medium-long term because it will reduce variety, it will make you feel hungry and trigger your desire for ‘prohibited’ food. Adverts say super-foods are full of benefits, and this can be true, but no one alone is resolute or immediate if anything else changes. Only making gradual modifications in the wider overall picture of your practices will make you able to achieve and manage wellbeing without effort.
For instance, instead of cutting out all carbs or over-eating chia seeds, try to increase variety and include some healthy foods gradually in your meals every day, such as vegetables and whole grains; chose stairs instead of the elevator more often, or walk the dog a few times more over the week. At the same time, just begin to reduce counterproductive and harmful practices step by step, for instance putting two tea spoons of sugar in the coffee instead of three for two weeks until you are used to it, replace snacks and junk foods with fruits and nuts, reduce screen time, etc. In the medium term you will gradually and naturally start to feel the benefits of these small changes, and they will allow you to keep going on this track without a lot of effort. Your mood will change, and your energy will increase.
Let’s stop believing in magic, and take a more proactive approach. Our health is in our hands, much more than we realise! With what we have found so far about nutrition and mental health, we believe this is a particularly important approach for both your physical health and mental health.

The Doombringer. The Accursed One. The Mouth of Malevolence. The Devourer Who never sleeps. These are but few of the names and titles that refer to Kulthis, Ayreon's ultimate face of evil, father and progenitor of all that is foul and perverse in the realms. He cares for every evil creature, his own dark vision of the world and the law, and uses whatever means he can to further the triumph of his cause. His tools are guile, fear, supression and outright force as well as unquestioning followers that zealously promote his agenda.
Unless one lives in the City of Infernal Darkness or among the denizens of the Underdark, one seldomly openly reveals one is a follower of the Dark God. If a church or shrine of the god is ever revealed to the leadership of a city or township, it immediately sends forces to that location and wipes it out. The reach of Kulthis is widespread, hidden among secret enclaves and cults spread across the continent, but unless they are within the near-grasp of Lokatar, they do not remain in place for long.
This does not stop Kulthis's minions from attempting to spread the word of their lord, nor from attempts to conquer lands near the empire of Lokatar. His priests and templars are in constant war with Antagil to the west, and with Ardun to the east, and they are forever devising ways into other realms, Ophir, Crescent, Ishikawa, Korum, and the undersea kingdoms. It is said that among the minions of evil, Kulthis's are the strongest, for their faith empowers them with various abilities concerned with elemental darkness as well as granting them the ability to manipulate the souls of their victims.

I will be identifying the legal criteria for offer and acceptance in a valid contract. Case study examples.
Bader SherbajiUnit 21 ? Assignment 1Task 1 & 2 In the first task of my assignment I will be identifying the legal criteria for offer and acceptance in a valid contract. Then for the second task I will explain the law in relation to the formation of a contract in the above situation. Offer: ?An offer is a definite promise from one of the parties to the agreement made. They make this promise with the intention that it shall become binding or legally enforceable as soon as it is accepted by the person receiving the offer.? (Dooley, 2010) Contract-offers: One of the main rules of acceptance is that the offer has to be accepted on the same terms of which it was made. One of the factors that indicate an offer hasn?t been accepted is when a counter-offer is made. The main effect of a counter-offer is to terminate and end the original offer and create a new one. Communication of Offers: Offers must be communicated with to the other party. This usually happens in many means, either verbal or written, both of which are valid. If the offer isn?t certain, and is too vague, then it comes invalid. When a person enters contract negotiations with another, they must be aware of the terms to which they are agreeing to. There is an exception to this rule however, when a person makes an offer to a contract with many people, or theoretically speaking, to the entire world. This is known as reward cases. Acceptance: ?The formal agreement to accept an offer.? (Dooley, 2010) There are several factors that must be considered when looking at acceptance, these factors are; 1. Under normal circumstances, the acceptance of the offer has to be communicated with the person who made the offer, who is also known as the offeror. 2. The acceptance of the offer has to be in the form which is specified in the offer, such as written, verbal or so on. ...read more.
Daniel subsequently went to another computer shop and bought the same computer but for 800 pounds. In that afternoon, Eva phoned Angus and said that she longer wished to buy the computer anymore. Now I?ll be talking about the types of contracts that Angus actually made with each of his customers and I?ll explain the law related with those situations. Angus and Bobby: Bobby was the first person to get back to Angus on his offer through post. Acceptance by post is considered one of the exceptions to the main rule that acceptance must be communicated with the person making the offer, hence when posted, acceptance is considered to be immediately effective as long as the letter is correctly addressed and the stamped envelope is posted in a letterbox. The postal rule states that when agreed that parties will use the post as a mean of communication, the postal rule will apply. Angus however stated that the computer will go to the first person who accepts it on Saturday, and by person he means the first one who comes to his shop, and meets him in person there. He never just said that the first person who accepts will be the one he sells the Bell Supreme to, so despite Bobby being the first to accept, he wasn?t there in person. Bobby would?ve been be the rightful owner of the new Bell Supreme as he was the first to accept Angus?s offer on Saturday, but since Angus stated that it was to be in person, he wasn?t bound legally to Bobby in any way. Bobby can?t sue Angus for not accepting to work with him as Angus never mentioned the first to accept it by post will get the computer, so Bobby as no right to sue Angus over anything. A contract wasn?t formed to begin with. Angus and Catherine: Catherine was the first person to arrive at Angus?s shop on Saturday morning and she offered Angus a check for 500 pounds for the computer, one that Angus has refused. ...read more.
Dorrianne informed her that this aircraft would enable her to successfully complete her trips without having to stop for refueling, something that was clearly wrong. Dorrianne also sold Shirley the aircraft at 1 million pounds more than what it?s actually worth, something which has unsettled Shirley in her business. The impact that these requirements, if true, for Shirley would?ve allowed her to successfully carry on with her business plans and would?ve kept her from incurring a considerable expense in setting up her business. However, due to the fraudulent misrepresentation by Dorrianne, Shirley was forced to shut down her business as the aircraft was unable to fly between the two cities without the need to refuel. Shirley also incurred a considerable expense by having to spend 1 million pounds extra at 5 million pounds on the aircraft which cost only 4 million pounds. This means that there has been a breach in contract by the offeror, which makes the contract invalid. There has been a breach of conditions made by Dorrianne, as the product clearly didn?t match the requirements promised to Shirley. This can immediately lead to the contract either becoming invalid and to terminate. There are also other remedies for such situations such as damages, mitigation, rescission and so on. It is up to Shirley to which case to pursue Dorrianne at and what to sue her for, but given that there was a huge impact on Shirley and her business due to Dorrianne?s action, it would be highly unlikely that Shirley would just go for rescission. Dorrianne might have to pay many damages that she has caused for Shirley, unless she can prove otherwise that this was an innocent misrepresentation or a negligible one, which is very highly unlikely. Dorrianne?s actions that have impacted the requirements for the valid contract has caused Shirley to shut down her business and lose considerable expenses so there has been multiple breaches in the contract by the offeror which makes it invalid and Shirley would have the option to terminate the contract immediately or sue for other charges. ...read more.

The primary information will allow the business to gather information that would be of interest to them and is beneficial to them in some way. While secondary research may be useful, it may not always fit with the needs of the business as it was conducted with a different purpose in mind.
confidence is built up and people will buy more and more from the business thus gaining more money and having more money for other departments The operations/productions and marketing department have a direct link. The operations department simply makes the product and the marketing department will market it in-order to sells the product.
to the fact that people want to eat healthier and Ginsters is not seen as a healthy product. This will lead to Ginsters not being able to achieve this aim as they will not be selling a large proportion of their savoury products this will mean that they cannot become the savoury product leader.

This month in publishing news, it’s been all about the publisher’s best friend: the indie bookshop! The 2017 Independent Bookshop Week got well underway towards the end of June with the announcement of its annual Book Award, with winner Sebastian Barry praising the importance of independent bookshops and the culture they help to build. Publishers, too, seem to have thrown their weight behind this year’s celebrations with more gusto than usual, and the whole industry was set abuzz by hundreds of offline events and online by the lively #IBW17 hashtag.

For us, biodiversity and sustainable materials are not fashionable words, but intrinsic to everything we are and do.
Biological diversity really comes down to ‘natural variety’, and every space, on the ground or on a roof, however large or small, can support wildlife, both animals and plants.
The type of green roof planting and habitat creation we provide is designed to enrich an area or structure with biological diversity.
We encourage the use of a variety of growing substrates and substrate depth to ensure that a range of plants can grow, but as importantly, a range of different bugs can find refuge on the roof.
Some bugs like bare and very dry habitats and roofs are ideal to create this type of habitat. Certain bee species rely on flowers with special sepals, such as the Trefoils, Toadflaxes and Vetches.
It is also important to ensure that there are flowers in bloom from April to September. This provides a food source for bees throughout their foraging season. Plants, like Toadflax, which flower mid to late summer and early spring bulbs, such as Grape Hyacinth help at either end of the season.
Toadflax is also important for a rare UK moth, the Toadflax Brocade. The Common Blue butterfly feeds on bird’s foot trefoil and medicks. The Small Blue feeds on Kidney Vetch. The Dingy Skipper’s caterpillars also feed on Bird’s Foot Trefoil as well as Horseshoe Vetch. Rock-rose, Crane’s and Stork’s-bill species are good for the Brown Argus. As some grasses colonise the roof, other butterfly species, such as the Meadow Brown and Small Heath might find food plants on the roof.
It is also good to have a mind for the bugs, which though small and unassuming find refuge on derelict/brownfield sites and dry grasslands. The increasingly rare small black beetle (name?), depends on Autumn Hawkbit; as this plant flowers late in the year, it also provides an ideal nectar source for bees and butterflies.
The importance of providing larger stones and pieces of timber as give added humidity on the roofs for spiders and beetles. Birds make use of these structures for perching while searching food.
Logs, both dried and rotting, are important for a whole range of bugs. Some like the sun beaten logs to nest in, while rotting logs can host a range of invertebrates that include stag beetles. Boulders and bare areas can be very important too. There are a number of spiders that like to hunt in these areas, such as money, wolf and crab spider species. Small mounds of coarse sand can be habitat for a number of mining and solitary bees to nest on the roof.
‘Study of invertebrates on green roofs – How roof design can maximize biodiversity in an urban environment.’ Research undertaken by Gyongyver Kadas.
We can always try to answer questions about plants and wildlife, but for local expertise your local Wildlife Trust is a great place to start. Local soil types, corresponding native plants, and feeding and nesting wildlife all vary greatly around the country.
Much of the materials in a Green Roof Shelter are reclaimed, re-used, or recycled. From the re-use of shipping containers, to reclaimed timber used as cladding & roof fascias, reclaimed aggregates & substrates for planting, and recycled plastic ‘lumber’ for rotproof retaining plates. Habitat panels combine a mix of found materials for invertebrate nesting & overwintering.
Re-used materials vary greatly as to what is recovered, be it re-used decking from seaside piers, cedar planking from school buildings, or granite from railway tracks. They’re all great materials to re-use. For anything exposed the the elements that would be liable to rot, we use recycled plastic ‘lumber’, made from collected waste plastics.
We try to be intelligent about using new materials (and have considerable material experience), sourcing those which have the lowest environmental impact long term.
Many ‘new’ materials are already part recycled. Mill steel and aluminium contain significant proportions of recycled material (usually dependent on current metal values/prices; the higher the world price, the more economical it is to collect & reintegrate recycled metals).
Most of the new timber we use is European softwood, and all the new timber we use is FSC certified.
Our re-used shipping containers have usually traveled in excess of 50,000 miles. The life to date of the container is inscribed in the registration and payload information on the container doors. As part of the container’s refurbishment, the whole has been repainted, and the container data reapplied.
We can also take existing containers away and replace with a completely refurbished container with planted green roofs and habitat walls.
Our green roofs keep the container interior cool in hot weather, and because the container has two roof layers protecting it from the elements, it’s life is considerably extended.
We use growing mediums that are made from recycled secondary wastes – recycled crushed brick, organic green waste compost, recycled ceramics. We do not use imported material such as pumice.
A low nutrient level is necessary to allow wildflowers to thrive without grasses and other plants out-competing them. Grasses will often colonise with time.
In most cases a green roof won’t be green all the time. It is important to understand that a green roof will vary through the seasons. In long hot dry summers no natural grassland will be green we can’t expect a green roof to be. With the right approach it is possible to ensure that there is flowering from March through to October.
Patience can be important. Many of our roofs have been around for a number of years and each year we look forward to seeing how they have changed. What new plants have arrived? What is going to flourish this year?
The green roof shelter system uses recycled plastic supplied by Filcris.
90% of our habitat walls come from a reclaimed source, whether it be reclaimed cedar for the frames, local logs, rocks, sheeps wool and other materials. Materials that get taken by birds for nesting, will need to be replaced over time. Locally found materials will always be the ideal for creating habitat panels.
We promote the use of native plants, especially in terms of meeting local and region biodiversity targets for butterflies, insects and other invertebrates. We would normally include some non-native flowering plants to extend the nectar season for solitary bees, hoverflies, butterflies and moths. We can obviously plant according to your needs, and are very happy to give advice.
We source our small plant plugs and seeds from recognised native suppliers as certified by FloraLocale.
Our roofs can be planted responsively to target species, so pocket habitats can be established with particular plants identified as food sources.
When used in public spaces, the wild plants on roofs tend to be free from accidental or mismanaged herbicide spraying. | 2019-04-20T05:07:12Z | https://greenroofshelters.co.uk/biodiversity-sustainable-materials/ |

So I uploaded a couple pix direct-to-site with no problem.
I was given 2 extra slots to upload, for 4.
I uploaded 4 more using the exact same method I did before to find them - Google.
Two were approved, but two were deleted with the reason stating that no images are allowed that are for sale anywhere.
I now only have 1 additional upload left for today, which means I was penalized for having done this by having one of my bonus uploads removed, with no way to know that these were for sale somewhere out there in the big ol' www.
So... my question is, given that 1. the images are freely available through GOOGLE IMAGE SEARCH, and 2. are not marked in any way that they're for sale somewhere, how am I supposed to contribute to this site without being treated like I did this on purpose and can't be trusted? I can understand if I just don't have the history to back up my upload 'trustworthiness' but deleting the images would have sufficed; doing so AND knocking me down a peg completely discourages me, as a new uploader, from wanting to bother (it's not like we get paid to contribute and there's plenty of content without my help). I guess I can always go back to lurker status if this is just going to happen.
What's your username on the main site? Can't find "gonor".
The images in question have a James Cook / FTVideo watermark. We often try to delete images from female muscle paysites preemptively in order to avoid stepping on their toes. There is no good way for us to tell which specific images are in the members only section or not.
The other images you uploaded (Natalia Romashko) were deleted because she has asked not to be on the site.
Ok. Well I'll have to pay closer attention next time.
Hello! I just had a similar issue, wherein I uploaded two photos that came directly from the girl's public Instagram page. They were rejected because they may also be from a pay site (apparently one of them may be from HerBiceps?).
That said, given that she posted them herself publicly, shouldn't they be accepted on here?
I'm just trying to share with the community here, as I think they'd like those posts. Not trying to step on the toes of the pay site owners.
It's really hard to enforce it in some cases but not others, which is why we have the blanket rule in place. | 2019-04-24T02:43:56Z | https://forum.girlswithmuscle.com/index.php?topic=5458.msg20572 |

With 114 colleges in Massachusetts, the issue of sexual violence and assault on campuses is on the minds of many students.
That's why Northeastern University senior Jace Ritchey attended a summit at Harvard University on Saturday, where about 100 activists, politicians and survivors of sexual violence gathered to discuss how to tackle the issue.
Ritchey said the first step to staving off sexual violence on college campuses is to require schools provide an anonymous sexual misconduct climate survey to see what that institution's specific needs are.
"If we don't know what's happening and we don't know how students feel and what students are aware of in terms of what resources they have in the first place, we won't really be able to move forward with the right staff members that can really respond in a cohesive manner to a situation like sexual violence on campus," Ritchey said.
U.S. Rep. Ayanna Pressley, a survivor of sexual assault herself, delivered opening remarks at the event, vowing to push for a "survivor justice agenda," while representing the Massachusetts' 7th Congressional District in D.C.
The agenda she spoke of includes guarding and fortifying "protections for survivors, relative to access to trauma and behavioral health services, to reporting guidelines to investigations," she said. "It means justice."
For Ivy Lee -- co-founder of the advocacy group The Every Voice Coalition, which organized the summit with the Harvard Law School Harassment Assault Law-Student Team — advocacy on the behalf of survivors is particularly important.
"I'm a survivor of sexual assault," she said. "It directly impacted me, but it also impacts the people who love me — all the people I know now and will know in the future will be impacted by this."
The Every Voice Coalition's goal is to end sexual violence on college campuses in Massachusetts. It previously pushed for a bill in the state Legislature that would require all institutions of higher learning to provide an anonymous climate survey. It never passed, though.
Massachusetts House Speaker Robert DeLeo, who attended the summit, said the bill's failure to pass was a matter of legislative mismatching and lack of time. Last year, both the state House and Senate drafted their own versions of the climate survey bill, but the legislative session ended before the two chambers could reconcile the proposed laws.
This year, though, DeLeo said, it'll be different.
"I'm [at the summit] early in the [legislative] session to make sure that everyone knows that this is a priority," he said. "We can take a look at it much earlier in the session, try to work with our colleagues in the Senate and get in on the governor's desk. That's the way I want to see it get done this year."
DeLeo said it's his hope to get that legislation passed this year. | 2019-04-20T20:40:22Z | https://www.wbur.org/edify/2019/02/23/harvard-university-sexual-violence-summit?fbclid=IwAR2a_ymXaUCT5DMDef2SycAbDjUHTWjHGQKc8uNmdBtUKe8XwDfhKmFYJMw |

We propose in this paper a new routing method that utilizes hop distance information and transmitting history. Most of conventional routing methods use global and real-time information such as the number of waiting packets at nodes. In addition, they assumed that these real-time information can be accessed instantaneously at every node. These unrealistic network circumstances, however, limit applicability of routing methods. On the other hand, our proposed method in this paper uses transmitting histories held by each node to diversify routes of packets. In addition, any packets to exchange global information is not necessary. Numerical simulations indicate that our proposed method shows higher arrival rate of packets for various scale-free type communication network models.

Because of the strategic nature of special operations, the Special Forces is an autonomous force.
Operations are controlled at the highest level to ensure security, a short line of command, and the optimization of inherent capabilities. Key capabilities and specialized skills enable the effective conduct of operations under severe conditions, anywhere in Africa.
The SA Special Forces is a force multiplier for the South African National Defence Force to be utilized within the security community. It has its headquarters in Pretoria and is supported by units specializing in amphibious, air and landward operations, as well as a dedicated logistics capability.
Based in Pretoria. The General Officer Commanding (GOC) Special Forces commands, controls and coordinates the activities of the various SF Regiments from a headquarters (HQ) located in the Swartkop Park nature reserve on the southwestern outskirts of Pretoria. Colloquially called “Speskop”, the headquarters also houses the Special Forces’ operational planning as well as administrative support staffs.
This Force is still the most respected in Africa. | 2019-04-26T14:33:26Z | http://www.recce.co.za/the-hq/ |
Despite Forest Hills' proximity to Jackson Heights, or perhaps because of it, we don't have much in the way of Indian restaurants. Yes, the zip code has Baluchi's, the oft maligned, but in reality not-bad-albeit-timid, microchain. But that's about it. ... No, we also have Haveli, and Pike, having ordered delivery from them on a number of occasions, had been a hearty advocate of their deliciousness. "Had been" because that was before we decided to dine there in person.
Haveli rests on that somewhat depressing stretch of Queens Boulevard between "downtown" Forest Hills and Union Turnpike. The part that feels like you've traveled back in time to 1981. Pike and I walked in around 7. Inside, Haveli is massive. "You could fit a Barnes & Noble in here. Or at least most of one." Pike remarked. "Certainly a supermarket." I replied. And Haveli's gargantuan-ness was only emphasized by the glaring fact that we were its only patrons. For our entire meal, we sat alone under huge crystal chandeliers like guests who arrived at a wedding a day late. Not only was nobody else there and not only did nobody else come in, but nobody was ordering anything either. Almost nobody. One delivery (Pike noticed).
To start with, I ordered a passable, if thin and bland Mulligatawny Soup. There are some mulligatawny soups (a curried lentil soup) that will knock your socks off and make you wonder why people even bother to eat anything else. This was not one of those. I doctored it up with a few of the sauces on the table, which it sorely needed, but even then, it wasn't making me yearn for a second bowl. And, espite alleging to be made with diced chicken, I assure you that there was none. I don't think I've ever had bad Samosas, and they were good here, too (though how deep fried mashed potato dumplings could ever be anything but delicious is a mystery to me). The Haryali Kabab appetizer, grilled chicken marinated in mint and coriander was also good, but it was a wee bit unsatisfying. It had little depth beyond being lightly seasoned, though it was quite moist.
Our entrees soon came, and Pike was looking forward to his go-to dish, Chicken Tikka Saagwala, a grilled chicken in a creamy spinach sauce. But when he started eating, he was nonplussed. It was bland, as was my Chicken Tikka Masala, a grilled chicken served in a soup of spiced tomato sauce. "Every time I ordered delivery, it was so much better." Pike said, wondering whether the kitchen was having an off day or if the wait staff took a look at two white guys and said to the kitchen "dumb it down for these two." Honestly, we, or at least I, could barely taste anything through the volume of sauce, and the sauce wasn't exactly blowing me away. Balichi's has started looking better, I can say that. Oh, we also got some Naan. After all, who wouldn't? The Naan was good.
So if you're wondering if I can recommend a restaurant that felt like sitting in a deserted banquet hall, that serves food which was certainly no better than other Indian restaurants I've eaten in, at prices are no less expensive, and which was served with zero presentation whatsoever... well, I guess I'd have to return for another meal and see if it improves. As of right now, no, I can't recommend them. However, all that being said, they get a pretty good Yelp rating.
Three appetizers, two entrees, two naans, and two diet colas came to $67 plus tax and tip. | 2019-04-19T18:30:58Z | http://eateryrowforesthills.blogspot.com/2014/03/haveli.html |

Through our Social and Recreational Programme, we aim to provide relief from the trials of daily life and much needed companionship for our families. We organise coffee mornings, iftars, Eid parties, day trips, Summer outings and more to help families unite and experience a return to normalcy.
During our weekly coffee mornings, families who have been affected by anti-terror laws unite. This allows them to socialise with one another without fear of being marginalised or judged. Sharing experiences, advice and skills, they begin to feel less isolated and alone.
On special occasions like Eidal-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, the festivals that occur at the end of the month of Ramadan and at the conclusion of the annual Hajj pilgrimageHHUGS organise gatherings for families. We know that holidays can be the loneliest time of year without a husband, father or son to celebrate with. To take their minds off of every-day life we try to ensure they are not alone and still enjoy the happiness of that day, whether that’s giving them a change of scenery, taking them on all expenses paid trips to theme parks and gifting them vouchers for Eid and presents for the children and elderly. We also cover the costs of other regular social activities such as gym membership, sports clubs and recreational activities for children, helping them to grow in confidence.
At HHUGS we sincerely believe that comfort and social support brings long-term emotional benefits, giving the wives and children of detainees the ability to resume a wholesome and balanced life. | 2019-04-23T03:54:22Z | https://www.hhugs.org.uk/2014/07/social-recreational-programme-srp/ |

The USA offers unrivalled opportunities to get out on the road and experience not one, but dozens of superb USA scenic drives. Whether you are a visitor to the States or a local, one of the best ways to get an in-depth look at the country is to undertake one of the amazing Great American road trips that are out there waiting for you. On this type of holiday the journey should be more important to you than the final destination, and when you start making your plans try to incorporate enough time to be able to disregard tight schedules and just follow your heart.
If you are doing the trip in a RV, Motorhome or Campervan rental, you are already at an advantage, and will have a lot more flexibility to just stop and enjoy that dramatic sunset or perfect little village. The length of the adventure will depend on the amount of time you have – try not to fit too much into one trip; it’s no fun spending hours and hours on a highway and having no time to enjoy yourself along the way. Remember, it’s all about the journey!
Classic Route 66, which runs all the way from Chicago to Los Angeles, is almost an institution in America, a tour of discovery along a historic and vaguely kitschy part of the country where time has stood still. This is a great place to get off the highway, amble along at your own pace and enjoy the eclectic towns and attractions along the way, ending up in Flagstaff. From there you can continue along the Oak Creek Canyon Route to Sedona, where there are amazing outdoor activities to enjoy before continuing on your way to the Grand Canyon and then on to Las Vegas, for a major change of pace!
The West Coast offers the Pacific Highway, one of the most iconic Great American road trips for you to include in your itinerary. If you can, start in the far north, on the Pacific North West coast in Seattle, and make your way down the coast to Los Angeles at your own pace. Along this route you get to drive along the Oregon coast, visit Crater Lake, Redwood National Park, the wonderful Napa Valley – be sure to spend a few days here enjoying the vineyards and tranquillity – before reaching San Francisco.
Drive across the Golden Gate Bridge and visit Alcatraz, before continuing on the most popular section of the trip, past Monterey, Santa Barbara and finally ending up in Los Angeles. This is a wonderful trip for the whole family, with a great number of excursions and activities available all along the way, and excellent RV campsites.
For a great coastal vacation drive the scenically magnificent Overseas Highway from Miami to Key West. This 150 mile journey on US1, takes you over the ocean via Key Largo and the spectacular Seven Mile Bridge that links Marathon and the Lower Keys. The scenery is amazing, there are plenty of good RV Parks and the bathing and snorkelling are wonderful in the clear warm water. | 2019-04-22T14:33:48Z | https://www.go4motorhomerental.com/scenic-drives/usa/ |
