I was at my daughter’s softball game last night and kicking myself that I didn’t bring a jacket! Yes, warmer weather is here, but a cool breeze and a little bit of rain can still warrant the use of a jacket.

Some homeowners are able to secure attractive financing terms via a line of credit or equivalent. Depending on your situation, an energy efficient mortgage (EEM) may be a good way to finance your solar panels.
PROPERTY ASSESSED CLEAN ENERGY | P.A.C.E.
P.A.C.E. programs such as the Sonoma County Energy Independence Program is a revolutionary solar financing method. The county will provide funding for the solar project and the end user pays the “loan” back through their property taxes. If the home is ever sold, the payments stay with the property just as any tax liability.
Solar leases work when the lease payment combined with the post-solar electric bill cost less than the original electric bill. Once the lease term is over, one has the option to renew or purchase the equipment at a reduced cost.
A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) is similar to a solar lease except, instead of leasing the solar energy system, you purchase the power it produces. In practice, both residential PPAs and solar leases reduce (or in some cases eliminate) upfront costs associated with installing solar panels.
This is a fairly new approach to solar financing that’s available in states where solar renewable energy credits (SRECs) are traded. In a nutshell, a financing company pays an upfront sum to you, the homeowner, to help cover the cost of solar panel installation. In exchange, you sign over the SRECs generated by your solar panels. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-22T10:39:31Z', 'url': 'https://www.northernpacificpower.com/residential-solar-financing/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
To the best of my memory bouldering in the Riverside area (namely Big Rock and Mt. Rubidoux) started to become "bouldering" and not just practice, warm-ups for "real climbing" with Lee Harrell. Lee had climbed with John Harlin in the Alps and Chuck Pratt in the Valley, and he was our mentor into the world of "serious" climbing. We (Paul Gleason, Keith Leaman, and I) would follow Lee around the largely unvisited rocks of Big Rock while he showed us one problem after another. Lee's home was also a focal point for young men interested in climbing, and it was through him we met Phil Haney, Jack Schnur and several local climbers.
Certainly other mountaineers and rock climbers had visited these areas first. The Sierra Club used these rocks for training, as did both the military and the Riverside Mountain Rescue team. But as far as we could tell, no other group worked the boulders like we did. Forming a tight little support group we would try and try a boulder problem until one (and then usually the rest of us) would be successful.
Through Lee Harrell we heard about John Gill and the amazing problems he climbed. Both Paul Gleason and Phil Haney went to Colorado to climb with Gill (although I can't remember who went first). They both came back with astounding stories and brought a new level of inspiration to the local scene. Paul in particular had a new attitude about bouldering, a higher level of commitment. He also had seen the power of the dynamic move and the value of physical training. At this time Paul was working at Highland Outfitters in Riverside and would boulder at Rubidoux almost every day before work. It was during this time that Paul met Rob Muir, another amazing climber. Paul then met, climbed with and inspired John Long, Richard Harrison, and Rick Accomazzo. The rest is well-known history. Rubidoux developed into a very well known, destination bouldering area; Big Rock was altered (many of the boulders destroyed) to construct a dam and a man-made lake. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-24T04:19:49Z', 'url': 'http://www128.pair.com/r3d4k7/Riverside.html', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
Apple simply introduced a brand new Watch referred to as Apple Watch Collection Four.
The brand new Apple Watch comes with a bigger, edge-to-edge display screen, giving it the most important facelift since its launch in 2014. The display screen is 30 % bigger than the earlier model, whereas the machine itself has change into thinner.

One of many apps makes use of electrocardiogram and is designed to detect the presence of atrial fibrillation, whereas the opposite is able to screening for sure coronary heart rhythm issues suggestive of atrial fibrillation.
“Shoppers are actually empowered to take extra management of their very own well being data to make higher knowledgeable choices about their medical care and wholesome residing,” mentioned FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb in a press release. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-22T04:01:35Z', 'url': 'http://news-edition.com/apple-watch-series-4-announced-price-and-release-date/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
These two soups are so easy. I don't peel my butternut squash which makes it even easier. Since for both soups you purée them, you barely notice the skin. Immersion stick blenders are great for soups because you don't have to purée them in batches. The second soup is vegan and gluten free, it's a staple when I have large groups of people over because it feeds about six or eight people - even those with the most specific of diets! | {'timestamp': '2019-04-24T23:59:11Z', 'url': 'http://illustratedfoodie.weebly.com/home/variations-on-a-theme-two-butternut-soups', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

Pakistani pastor Zafar Bhatti (56) has been in Rawalpindi’s Adiala Central Jail since July 2012, when he was charged with sending blasphemous text messages. On 3 May 2017, Zafar was sentenced to life imprisonment for blasphemy, a charge he denies. The mobile phone in question was not registered to his name.
LATEST NEWS (March 2019): In early March Zafar’s appeal hearing was postponed until 21 March, but it did not take place because of a lawyers’ strike in Rawalpindi, and was postponed again until 11 April.
Before his arrest, Zafar worked selling medicines and often went door-to-door with his presentation, also reading the Bible and praying with families in homes he visited. He founded and led a small NGO called “Jesus World Mission” to assist the poor.
A First Incident Report was lodged against an unknown person, but the police later arrested Zafar, charging him under section 295-C. They tortured him to extract a confession, but he insisted on his innocence.
Several reports proved that the SIM was not registered to Zafar but was registered to the holder of a different Computerised National Identity Card (CNIC), his colleague Ghazala Khan. In November 2012, she was arrested and charged with blasphemy. At her trial in April 2013, Justice Khalid Mehmood of the Lahore High Court refused to pass judgement against her and instead tried to convince the petitioner Ahmed Khan to forgive her. Ghazala Khan said she was innocent and did not want forgiveness but to be freed on merit. The judge showed her leniency as she was a woman, and granted bail. She died in November 2016 from Hepatitis C, aged 39.
In May 2017, Additional District and Session Judge Mohammad Yar Gondal sentenced Zafar to life in prison. Section 295-C mandates the death sentence, but because there was no evidence against him, he was sentenced to life imprisonment instead. He is waiting for his appeal to be heard.
In prison, Zafar has experienced pressure from Muslim prisoners to convert to Islam, and has been beaten several times. On 31 March 2013, his food was poisoned, which caused bleeding from the nose and mouth and left him in a critical condition for days. He is kept in high security and is not allowed out of his cell, where he has remained for six years. For security reasons, court proceedings have been carried out by the judge in the cell.
Zafar has developed diabetes since being imprisoned and experiences heart pain and headaches. He feels great sadness over the years he has lost.
On 25 September 2014, mistaken rumours circulated that Bhatti had been killed in his prison cell. It was not Bhatti who been attacked, but the prisoner in the adjacent cell, British Muslim Muhammad Asghar (71), who had been sentenced to death for blasphemy. Ashgar, who was arrested in 2010, had a history of mental illness.
Police officer Muhammad Yousaf, who had been deployed to protect Muhammad Asghar, shot him in the chest. The bullet broke two of his ribs and punctured his right lung, but he recovered in hospital. Prison guards arrested Yousaf, who had planned to kill all prison inmates accused of blasphemy.
Nawab lives alone and visits Zafar weekly. She was working as a domestic cleaner in three homes owned by a man who reportedly treated her “like an animal” until she developed double pneumonia and had to be hospitalised. The BCPA supported her through her illness and when she was released from hospital took her to a safe house and supported her recovery.
11 July 2012 Ahmed Khan, deputy secretary of the local branch of the Islamic organisation Jamat Ahle-Sunnat, filed a complaint at New Town police station, Rawalpindi, saying he had been sent text messages insulting the Prophet Mohammed’s mother.
22 July 2012 The police arrested Zafar, charging him under Section 295-C of the blasphemy laws.
11 November 2012 Ghazala Khan was arrested and charged with blasphemy in connection with the Zafar Bhatti case – her Computerised National Identity Card was registered against the phone SIM card in question.
8 April 2013 Justice Khalid Mehmood of the Lahore High Court tried Ghazala Khan but refused to pass judgment against her and granted bail. Ghazala died in November 2016.
25 September 2014 Mistaken rumours circulated that Zafar had been killed in his prison cell.
24 April 2017 Zafar’s trial opened. It had to be held in prison because of threats to his life. Judgment was reserved until a later date.
3 May 2017 Additional District and Session Judge Mohammad Yar Gondal sentenced Zafar to life in prison.
December 2018 On 18 December, Release International reported that Zafar’s appeal hearing had been adjourned the previous week.
January 2019 The Centre for Legal Aid, Assistance and Development stated that Zafar’s appeal would be heard on 12 February 2019.
12 February 2019 Zafar’s appeal hearing was postponed until 5 March 2019.
5 March 2019 Zafar’s appeal hearing was postponed again, until 21 March 2019.
21 March 2019 Zafar’s appeal hearing did not take place because of a lawyers’ strike in Rawalpindi. It was rescheduled for 11 April. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-23T00:28:08Z', 'url': 'https://www.churchinchains.ie/prisoner-profiles/zafar-bhatti/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
I am late getting out the updates this week! Here are some thoughts for the week and announcements.
I mentioned during Sunday's sermon that I was deeply challenged by John Owen on the topic of meditating on the glories of Christ. His words are so helpful... there are things that we find easy and natural to spend time meditating upon and meditating upon Christ requires mortifying those other thoughts when they occupy too great of a place in our hearts.
It is, therefore, to be lamented that men can find time for, and have inclinations to think and meditate on, other things, it may be earthly and vain; but have neither heart, nor inclination, nor leisure to meditate on this glorious object.
They hear of these things, they assent to their truth, at least they do not gainsay them; but they never solemnly meditate upon them... because they will not be at the trouble and charge of that mortification of earthly affections, that extirpation of sensual inclinations, that retirement from the occasions of life, which are required.
I hope you have been filled with adoration as we have been seeing the majesty of Jesus in Mark the past several weeks. It's been awesome for me to read passages in Revelation that connect to what we are studying right now in Mark about Jesus.
And as you contemplate the majesty of Jesus, here is a song filled with Scriptural truths about him. It is an anthem of praise which is becoming a favorite song around our home. I wanted to share it with you if you haven't heard it yet. Take some time to read these passages and learn this song - it will bless your soul. He alone is worthy of all blessing and honor and glory!
It is a communion Sunday. We will partake of the Lord's table together as we remember the death of Jesus in Mark 15:33-39. After the service we will have a Q&A focusing especially on discussing the building and our upcoming move (only four more Sundays at Santiam Place)!
We will reflect again on the cross Good Friday evening 4/21 at Santiam Place. We will have a one hour service with singing, partaking of communion together, Scripture reading, prayer and a devotional. We will land in Mark 16:1-8 which is on the resurrection on Easter Sunday. If you have friends, co-workers or relatives who don't have a church home, this is a great Sunday to invite them to church with you.
Simon and Mindy now have legal guardianship of Alaina! This is something that we have been taking before the Lord in prayer over the past year. I have been encouraged personally watching them trust in God's providence and desire to see him use this circumstance for his glory. Praise the Lord.
He arrived on 3/28 at 8:40pm. 7lbs., 18 1/4" long. The family is loving their new little guy - Ryan said he doesn't get hold Malachi very much with all the girls around :) and it's been a great adjustment with Myles. So much to rejoice in with them.
I get asked about ways of reading the Bible and in fact there are many ways to engage with Scripture (reading it, studying it, meditating upon it, listening to it, and memorizing it). But on the topic of reading, here's a link to some different reading plans if you are looking for changing the approach you have been taking to reading the Bible. There are benefits to various approaches and it can be good to read in different ways. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-18T20:36:06Z', 'url': 'https://cbcalbany.com/new-blog/2019/2/21/weekly-updates-amp-life-in-the-church-2hy25-4j3wa', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
When we talk about traveling, usually a very good strategy for we expect a successful trip is planning for it. When you plan an escape to Vegas, preparation in advance for the trip is really the lifesaver because so many people get upset for various and different reasons. Actually, like Cory McCormack (Vanity owner) says, “poor planning is going to mean poor results”.
The city of the lights is always fun, especially for us that come from another city like L.A and San Diego. There are more than 40 super nightclubs, countless of bars and restaurants in Vegas, and more than 40 wonderful hotels that we can pay less than $150 for unforgettable night. But the intention of this article is to guide you for more casino fun – for less!
Casinos can be great places to find excitement, see new sights and socialize. With a bit of luck, you might actually win some money. And with just a little research, you can plan a fun-filled trip at a big savings.
Large casinos are generally the most accommodating for first-time visitors and casual gamblers, frequently called “recreational players” in casino jargon. This large casinos is preferred by those kinds of players because they are more likely to offer the services these kinds of players enjoy including free game instructions, first-class entertainment and gourmet dinner. But the medium size casinos is the best ones for the occasional player that would like to have fun, but in same time, have the best odds for return to home with some extra cash!
In this case, the medium size casinos are the best ones. El Cortez per example features single deck games with $5 minimums, 3-to-2 payouts when you make a blackjack and other player friendly rules that reduce the overall house edge to just 0.2% – that is, the house makes an average of about two cents for each $10 bet, compared with up to 1.5% at other big casinos located on the strip. Actually, the casinos resorts outside the strip usually are the best bet! The South Point just 10min south if you drive from the Excalibur, per example, have some full-pay Deuces Wild Machines for video poker.
Like the slots machines? Usually this machines is programmed to pay out at least 85% of the money they take in, but higher-denomination slots tend to pay a greater percentage, as much as 97% for some $25 and up machines. But definitely, you best bet will be in medium size casinos without much luxury like the ones in downtown Vegas. By experience I can said that $10 slots machines have better odds than $5 machines that have better odds than $1 machines that have better odds than $0.25 machines.
Got the idea? But for not get your money out to fast and make your experience more enjoyable, play in $0.25 machines or even $0.01 machine but triple your bet. For example, feed a quarter in a classic Double Diamond slot and if three “wild” symbols come up, you win 1,000 quarters. But had you bet three quarters, you did win 15,000 quarters. Got it? My last advice would be to reminder you to plan your allowance for bet per day. In my case is from $25 to $50 maximum. Like the tip and this article? I appreciate if you can share it with your friends. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-19T22:22:49Z', 'url': 'http://www.soulbrasil.com/home/vegas-fun-for-less-know-how-to-play-your-cards/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
Advertisers want to know something from Facebook. Did I work with Cambridge Analytica at any point? Can you make sure?
Carolyn Everson, Facebook’s vice president of global marketing solutions says she has spent the past week contacting thousands of the company’s advertisers, helping them understand the ramifications of the ongoing Cambridge Analytica mess. She started by notifying Facebook’s client council, which is made up of several top marketing executives, last Saturday.

It is time to ditch our razors and grab this new-age portable device. Finishing Touch Yes! hair remover might really be the saving grace to all women, even men who shave as well. This device is a product from 'As seen on Tv'. I purchased it at the Duane read by my house for $39.99. It was one of those impulse buys, like I know I really hate using razors but then does it really work, is it really worth my investments? I was excited to try it out. I had a friends wedding coming up and really needed to groom myself. Razors are usually a hit or miss with cuts. So I bought it anyway and was wowed by it.
The device is very portable, you can travel with it, put it in your toiletries bag, use it at anytime. The Finishing Touch Yes! device was voted Product of the Year for Innovation in 2015. It is safe and I tried it and Yes! you get no cuts, no bumps, and no nicks after using it.

After years of wear and use, you will eventually need denture relines. That’s because when you don’t have the protection of your natural teeth, bone begins to deteriorate and shrink over time. Bone loss can make your jaw line recede and change its natural shape. This bone loss and change in shape will continue as years go by, which will cause you to need denture realignment.
At American Dental Solutions, we understand the importance a properly fit denture is to your self-esteem and well-being. We recommend a denture realignment every two years. Our expert denture services are designed to take loose uncomfortable dentures and make them feel great again.
With Denture relines, we start by removing some of the plastic from the inside of the denture and molding with another material to create the shape of your gums. Then the denture is sent to American Dental Solutions’ in-house dental laboratory, where the impression material is replaced with pink, hard acrylic in exactly the same shape as the original impression material. When returned, the denture now conforms to the contours of your mouth, providing a snug, comfortable fit.
Contact your local American Dental Solutions office for more information on denture realignment, or schedule your free consultation today. It only takes one to two days to complete a denture reline. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-21T12:29:30Z', 'url': 'https://americandentalsolutions.net/dentures/denture-relines/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

After spending three months in Georgia, Ant-Man and the Wasp has moved to the West Coast. The upcoming Marvel Studios film is set for two weeks of production in San Francisco to finish up principal photography.
Ant-Man and the Wasp began production on August 1, 2017. Director Peyton Reed and crew spent most of their time at Pinewood Studios in Atlanta, GA before recently stepping out for a quick stint in Savannah, GA. Now, the sequel will wrap up in the same city where the first Ant-Man started filming back in August 2014.
The first film was set in the San Francisco area, so we can expect the sequel to tell at least a significant portion of its story there. Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) may be an international fugitive after Captain America: Civil War, but Hope van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly) and Hank Pym have probably been back in home in the Bay Area this whole time, finishing up Hope’s Wasp suit.
Lilly is definitely a part of the production happening right now, as she shared her 4:15am call time for this morning on her Instagram account. Hopefully, she’s feeling better than when she made this post last night.
Sick in bed today. I need to be up at 4:15am for work tomorrow morning outside in the cold. Wish me luck and lots of REM! ?
Ant-Man and the Wasp spending a couple weeks in San Francisco matches up with the usual Marvel Studios production schedules. Most of the work gets done on or around the chosen studio lot before production briefly shifts to whatever location the story is actually set in to grab some exteriors and landmarks. Most of the time, that means finishing up in New York, but not for Ant-Man and the Wasp, a film starring two literal West Coast Avengers.
Ant-Man and the Wasp is due in theaters July 6, 2018. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-21T01:11:46Z', 'url': 'https://marvelstudiosnews.com/2017/11/07/ant-man-wasp-production-heads-san-francisco/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

Carlos Pacheco daily fantasy baseball projections for DFS sites such as DraftKings and FanDuel.
Carlos Pacheco current season averages per batting order spot along with 12 team mixed fantasy value ($). Only includes games started. Games started percentages for RHP vs LHP are based on last 30 days.
Carlos Pacheco projected to 150 Games vs RHP and LHP with 12 team mixed fantasy value. This helps identify a player's platoon value for fantasy baseball based on pitcher handedness. These projections by Steamer are a MUCH better indicator of a hitter's platoon splits than in-season stats since it involves multiple years of data and has been properly regressed to league averages. Since games are neutralized across players, values for everyday players may look smaller than for preseason/season to date/rest of season where they benefit from playing time advantages vs other players. In general, left-handed hitters have larger platoon splits.

Although reporting of deaths from self-harm varies between nations, data models devised by the team behind the Global Burden of Disease – which tracks all known causes of death by country – show a clear downward trend in global suicide rates.
In results published in the BMJ journal, the study estimated that 817,000 people killed themselves in 2016 – a slight increase of 6.7 per cent since 1990.
However, as the global population has boomed over the last three decades, the team found that the rate of suicide adjusted for age and population size fell from 16.6 to 11.2 deaths per 100,000 people – a plunge of 32.7 per cent.
In 2016, 34.6 million years of life were lost globally from suicide – that is, the age when suicide deaths occur compared with average life expectancy in a given region or nation.
The study found that the overall global mortality rate, including all causes of deaths, had fallen by more than 30 per cent since 1990, something often attributed to having fewer people living in absolute poverty and better access to healthcare. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-20T10:16:05Z', 'url': 'https://www.phnompenhpost.com/international/global-suicide-rates-decline', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
WARMLY WELCOME Fat Lady´s Charms! We are so proud to present Fat Lady´s Charms as the newest member of the PbC-Media-Family! We are looking forward for a really good time together!
FL Charms was founded in summer of 2001 in Norway. Five girls devoted to paintball wanted to play tournament paintball and started an all-girl team. The team needed more players and recruited them from Denmark and Sweden. Today the team is a Scandinavian based team with players from Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Lithuania.
The team name Fat Lady’s Charms confuse some people. It comes from the team “Fat Lady” that used to play at a local field in Oslo, Norway. The girls wanted to have Fat Lady in the team name to show its origin. Therefore it became the “Fat Lady’s Charms” (or lucky charms).
Really important to all members of Fat Lady´s Charms is to show the world that girls can play paintball. They try to inspire other girls to get into tournament paintball.

Sweet and Sour Meatballs is totally a thing my family would have for dinner growing up. I remember liking them, but I do not remember what was in the sauce or what we ate them with. These Sweet & Spicy Orange Meatballs are super easy, and could be easily adapted to be made in the crockpot. All it takes is a few ingredients and 30 minutes and you’ve got a delicious appetizer or put them over rice or potatoes for an easy dinner.
Even if you’re like our family, and don’t really get into the whole football party thing, you can still get into the tasty food. I mean, really. Appetizers are usually the most tasty things on the menu. My husband and I have been known to get just a few appetizers to share when we go out to eat (which really isn’t that often).
Anyway, these these meatballs are super tasty! They only take a few simple ingredients and 30 minutes and you’ve got some super tasty bites of goodness!
These Sweet & Spicy Orange Meatballs are perfect by themselves and would be an awesome appetizer for tailgating or any other gathering of people who like good food. They have just a little bit of spice to them (and you can definitely make it to your taste by adding more or less of the garlic chili sauce).
To be honest, though, our family eats this as main dish. It’s best over mashed potatoes, but we also like it over rice. It’s super quick for a weeknight and my kids all love it!
As an update September 2018 – this is still one of our family’s favorite meals. It is requested by my husband on a regular basis and the kids are always asking for meatballs!
Mix all ingredients in large saucepan over medium-low heat.
Cover and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
Continue cooking 15 to 20 minutes or until heated through.
Serve as an appetizer, or over mashed potatoes or rice.
Although this alfredo is on the healthier side, you wouldn’t know it because it tastes amazing! | {'timestamp': '2019-04-26T08:35:55Z', 'url': 'http://www.delectabilities.com/sweet-spicy-orange-meatballs/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

This inverter can run for 6.5 hours at quarter-load power from full fuel tank of 1 gallon. Its fuel is gasoline.
What is the P2200 function?
The P2200 function is a computer-controlled engine. This engine is self-regulating, so that it conserves power as the number of devices that are plugged in decreases.
This inverter generator can be run in parallel configuration with another Briggs and Stratton Generator of the same make and model.
Running at 58dB, the Briggs and Stratton PowerSmart generator is 38% quieter than a conventional generator of the same Wattage.
Equipped with a starting wattage of 2200 and a continuous running wattage of 1,700, this inverter is more powerful than the other inverter generators in its class.
The Briggs and Stratton brand is one of the most trustworthy brands worldwide for engines and generators.
The Briggs and Stratton inverter may disappoint ham radio users as it creates a lot of radio frequency interference. To fix this problem, customers will have to wind the inverter’s extension cords around ferrite toroid cores. This reduces the sounds of the Radio Frequency Interference.
The Stratton and Briggs inverter is non-CARB compliant. It does however have a muffler screen as well as discharging emissions which are within CARB compliance levels.
The Briggs and Stratton 30651 P 2200 Inverter will not run the A.C Unit in an RV. This deficiency mat be caused by the constant draws on RV power such as the 8amp converter that charges the coach batteries. These demands on the inverter’s power may make the wattage too low to run the AC.

A: Yes, this is possible. The Briggs and Stratton brand inverter generators can be placed into a parallel configuration, without them being of the same model. This means that you can link the P2200 to a 3000 model. You must buy a Parallel Kit to do this though.
Q: I do not want to leave gas in my generator so can I turn off the gasoline switch and let all the gas run out?
A: No, the gas can be switched off by the On/Off switch, but the carburetor will still have gas left inside it.
Q: Am I able to hook up some jumper leads from the inverter to my car, so I can charge the batteries up?
A: You can do this if you have first of all hooked up an adapter to the DC cables.
Q: Is there any way that the Briggs and Stratton 30651 inverter can be locked up so that it is not able to be stolen?
A: There are several ways to do this – one of the best ways would be to purchase a bike lock and thread the cable through the spokes of the RV or camper’s tyre, then through the top handles of the generator. That should secure it.
I hope that this review of the best Inverter generators has been helpful and that you have been able to make up your mind about which inverter generator you would like to buy. For my money, it’s the Briggs and Stratton 30651, but I suppose the final choice is up to you. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-21T10:13:23Z', 'url': 'https://bestinvertergeneratorinfo.com/briggs-and-stratton-inverter-generator-brands/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
I run this blog on Azure as a Web App. I was planning to host it using a VM just for fun but I dropped the idea and choose Web Apps for my blog as a simple medium with less deployment effort and no server management at all. This blog post is mostly me documenting the steps to deploy or host the application on an Azure Linux Virtual Machine.
As this is just a demo, I will provisioned a small VM. You can use Azure-CLI to do that or you can just do it from the Azure Portal. I am using Azure Portal to do that. My choice of selection is an Ubuntu 16.04 LTS machine where LTS stands for Long Term Support which means that I am going to get the support for this version for a long time. To Create a new VM in Azure, click the Virtual Machines icon on the left hand side navigation pane and then click Create Virtual machines link in the center of the page. It will open up another pane where you can select the type of OS or type of select a VM from predefined VM templates. In my case I am selecting Ubuntu Server and then the version as 16.04 LTS. To create a VM click Create button as shown in the screen shot below.
In the next pane, provide some basic details to create a VM. You can choose whatever you want as per your business needs. This is what my basic details looks like.
Please note that by default Super User or SU is disabled in Azure linux VM. If I want to execute any command as a root, all I have to do is to add sudo and use the same password for my user name on that VM.
Click OK and proceed to select the VM size. By default, it will present you with some recommendations from the Azure itself. Click on View All to view all VM size offerings available. I am selecting A1 for this example. When in production, you should choose very wisely based on your requirements.
I will leave the Settings as it is.
Hit OK to run the final validation. In the final pane, click OK again to submit the deployment request to Azure to provision a new VM. It will take a while to create a VM and once it is done it will open up a VM home page where you can see the stats for the VM and do other administrative tasks on your newly created VM. It is a server distribution of Ubuntu and hence there will be no GUI for us to work with. SSH will be our only way in to the VM here. In the VM home page click the Connect button and it will prompt you with the SSH command which you will be using to connect to this VM. Here is what I get after executing the VM command for the first time.
And this is it, we have an Ubuntu Server 16.04 LTS running the cloud. The next step is to install .NET Core on this VM.
After the update is completed, you are good to install the latest version of .NET with this simple command.
Once the installation is completed, create a new directory with any name of your choice. I give it a name testApp and cd into the new directory like so.
Because I am going to execute the dotnet command for the first time, dotnet CLI utility will populate the local package cache to improve restore speed of the packages and to enable offline access. Inside the testApp directory create a new web app by executing the below command.
Here I am telling the dotnet command utility to create a new application by using the mvc as a template with no authentication of any kind and targeted framework version is 1.1. Now if I do ls in the directory I will see the following contents.
Next thing to do is to restore the packages with restore command.
Our web application is now running on the VM. Now let’s try to access it from the local browser with the web address like this.
You will notice that you cannot reach the site you have it running on the VM. This is because of many reasons when working with VM. First the port 5000 is not accessible from outside. I have to create a firewall exception to make it accessible from outside. Even if I want to do that, it still not a good idea to have your site visitors to use 5000 as a port address along with the domain name. To overcome this issue and to have a more control over the web server, I now need to install a web server which acts as a reverse proxy for my .NET core application running on VM. One more thing I would like to highlight here is that when I execute the above command you can notice that the terminal window is now hanged up with the dotnet server running. If I terminate the command, it will also terminate my application. I will show you how to overcome this issue in the section where I am going to configure the Nginx server to serve as a reverse proxy for my application.
Internally .NET Core used Kestrel Server and is installed by default with the project. I cannot use it as a production ready server to host my application and therefore I am going to install Nginx web server and then configure it as a reverse proxy. To install Nginx I am just going to use a simple apt-get command to install it and then start the service.
After the installation is done, I should be able to access the default web page delivered by Nginx server by typing the IP address of the VM. If you try this now, it will not work because of the VM Network Security Group in Azure will not let you access it. By default only SSH connections are allowed to the VM. I want to have the HTTP as web applications work on HTTP. Under Network Interfaces of the VM, click on Network Security Groups. Here you can see the Inbound and Outbound security rules. Under Inbound Security Rules, you can see that there is only one rule which is allowing you to have a SSH connection with the VM.
Under Settings, click Inbound security rules and then click Add to add a new inbound rule.
I have selected the HTTP from the Service dropdown. This will automatically set the Protocol, Port range and Action. Click OK to set the rule.
Let’s try accessing the web page again and this time I should be able to see the default Nginx web page.
Time to configure the web server as a reverse proxy for my web application. Open the config file from the below location.
Add the below lines in the config file. The configurations I added are pretty self-explanatory. I recommend reading the complete configuration of Nginx here.
If you made the changes when the server was running then either restart the server to reload the settings or execute the below command to reload the settings without restarting the server.
To publish the website, you also have to publish it with release configuration. With .NET Core, there are 2 ways of doing it. The .NET Core Guide states 2 methods of deploying the web application.
For an FDD, you deploy only your app and any third-party dependencies. You don’t have to deploy .NET Core, since your app will use the version of .NET Core that’s present on the target system. This is the default deployment model for .NET Core apps.
For a self-contained deployment, you deploy your app and any required third-party dependencies along with the version of .NET Core that you used to build the app. Creating an SCD doesn’t include the native dependencies of .NET Core on various platforms (for example, OpenSSL on macOS), so these must be present before the app runs.
Based on the documentation and as I have already installed .NET Core on the VM, I am going with FDD approach. As said, this is the default deployment model and therefore, I am going to zip the publish content and FTP to the VM.
In my last post, I have build the application where I have integrated the Azure AD authentication in .NET Core web application. I will use the same application and publish it with Release configuration on my Windows machine and zip it. Here are the content of the release publish folder.
Now I can upload this to the VM. I have FTP already with me and therefore I am not configuring it on the VM. If you want to have a FTP server look no further than FileZilla Server. Execute the wget command to download the zip file.
By default, unzip command is not installed on the VM, install it by using the below command.
Extract the zip file in a directory name ADApp by executing the below command.
Change the working directory and try to run the application so ensure that the publish was successful.
Note that the directory structure is bit different in the screen shot and the below screen shot. This is because I have copied all the files and folders from the PublishOuput folder into the ADApp folder root.
When you run the application for the first time, you will notice the application will not start just like that. .NET Core CLI utility will first configure the environment and then the application is being executed.
To execute the web application, run the below command. The dll file is the one which is being executed by the .NET Core runtime environment.
The application started successfully on local server on port 5000.
But there are problems when I run the application like this. One problem is that the command line is now occupied and I cannot do anything. If I terminate the process than the web application will also stop and I will not be able to browse the site. The second problem is that i have configured Nginx web server to power my web application. The internal .NET web server is not something I can use in the production environment. In short, I need this application to be running by .NET Core web server on port 5000 like so but it should not hang up or limit me to use the command line. To overcome these two problems, I can either use nohup command or I can use something more powerful like supervisor. For now I am sticking with nohup as this is just a sample application. When I want to have more control I will switch to supervisor. Here is the nohup command in action. Giving me the terminal control back after I execute the dotnet command.
You can notice that first I execute the ps command to list down the processes running in the background. Then I execute the dotnet command with nohup and after that I execute the ps command one more time to check the running processes. You can see that I have the dotnet process running with process ID as 65164.
Just like at the time of configuring Nginx, I have checked whether I was able to access the default page of Nginx from my browser or not, I will now enter the IP address of my VM and this time I should be able to see my AD authentication application running.
The CSS is bit off in the web application and that is because of the inner URLs need to be configured with the different host name.
Now I have hosted a ASP.NET Core web application in a Linux VM in Azure. The web server I am using is Nginx. Currently I am accessing the web application by IP address of the VM but now I want to access it with a recognizable name. I have a parked domain with GoDaddy called theevilprogrammer.com. I want to associate this domain name to my web application and to do that I just need access to my VM and GoDaddy account.
Go to your domain registrar from where you can access the DNS settings of your parked domain. In my case it is GoDaddy. Select your domain and click on Manage DNS.
I have an A record in the DNS management of my domain. All I have to do here is to change the Value to point to the IP address of the VM. Once this is done, click the Save button.
Restart the Nginx server by running the below command. This will reload the configuration and apply those configurations which we have changed. Now I can check whether I am able to access my site with the domain name I have configured or not.
Open browser and type in the domain name which in my case is theevilprogrammer.com.
So this is how you can also run your .NET Core applications from the VM. Do keep this in mind that there are lot of Nginx configuration and Azure VM configurations you have to set before you go to production. This post is something which can get you started with your own application hosted on a Linux VM in the cloud but there are still lot of little and important things that you have to perform before going to production. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-23T20:09:28Z', 'url': 'https://midnightprogrammer.net/post/hosting-aspnet-core-web-application-on-azure-linux-vm/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

There can be no doubt that international experience in the workplace is excellent for your resume, and employers around the world will always look on international exposure as a positive point when hiring. For this reason, gaining international experience is vital - and with the choice available to participants, internships and trainees are now accessible all around the world.
As these programs are typically taking place in a business environment, access to healthcare is key as participants will want to be able to seek care quickly and easily. For this reason a strong PPO network is vital so that participants can locate providers - ideally urgent or walk-in clinics, so that they are not wasting time. Also key here is access to documentation, and with being in the workplace, most will have constant access to the intern - so making policy documentation and online claims tracking will greatly improve the smooth running of plans for these participants.
The type of benefits required for interns and trainees varies very much on their length of coverage. If they are only going to be traveling for a few months, then a short term, less comprehensive plan should be sufficient. However for those on longer term assignments will have a higher need for a more comprehensive range of benefits, perhaps with a higher policy maximum.
One very important thing to note on these plans, if personal liability coverage is written into the policy, this will not typically provide coverage in the workplace. A common mis-conception, but nearly all personal liability insurance plans written into medical insurance plans will exclude coverage in the workplace. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-24T11:52:21Z', 'url': 'https://www.envisageglobalinsurance.com/products/trainees-interns/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

The other day I was grabbing a snack at a local sport’s pub when I noticed what struck me as an odd scene on one of the TVs. At first glance it looked like a couple of people encouraging a large, mobile Pet Rock to win a race. Of course, the sport was Curling, and it was an Olympic Qualification Event on the TV. I had “heard of” curling before, but I had never seen it played.
It turns out, there is more to the sport than meets the eye. More about that in a minute, but first, for the uninitiated such as myself, it is always good to start with finding out the basics. Here’s a fun little two minute video from Curling Canada that does the job nicely.
Entertaining, but that video doesn’t really explain why the sport’s nickname is “Chess on Ice.” Here’s a video that explains more about curling and mentions the nickname.
There is even a whole Chess on Ice YouTube channel that explains the sport in great detail. Here’s a short introductory video from the channel that starts to give a sense of the complexities of curling strategy.
Better yet, the sport is the subject of a debate among physicists, and there are even scientific papers about it. Here’s a video from Smarter Everyday about the controversy.
You can find out more about this unusual Olympic sport on the World Curling TV YouTube channel and the World Curling Federation web site. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-25T00:20:55Z', 'url': 'https://cosma.org/2017/12/17/chess-on-ice/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
Serious scholars need a calculator that can keep up. Seartec offers a smart solution, in the form of the Sharp EL-W535HT scientific calculator. This calculator is easy to use but smart enough to teach students and help them practice mental mathematics. The EL-W535HT calculator has been equipped with sophisticated functionality in the form of different modes, and has other neat features for intuitive use.
This mode is a repetitive teaching mode for practicing mental mathematics calculations, such as multiplication table drills. The calculator marks answers and gives immediate feedback.
These allow the user to compress several steps, for example when creating a function, into one short-cut button. This cuts down on having to enter lengthy steps into the calculator each time for often-used functions.
Table mode can be used as a practice drill for multiplication tables. The table mode also allows the user to enter in an equation and receive a calculated a pair of coordinate pairs, which can then be used to draw graphs. Table mode never runs out of coordinate pairs which is excellent for teaching trigonometry, as well as helping users to understand where the CAST diagram comes from. Table mode can also be used to find factor pairs.
This mode deals with statistics appropriate for high school learners and certain undergraduate university students; such as determining mean and standard deviation. Entering information to retrieve statistical calculations is simple and only requires two buttons, which reduces the chance of errors.
This function has four different options for random number generation: rand (random decimals between 0 and 1 to three decimal places); r-dice (a die on the calculator – generates numbers 1 to 6); r-coin (generates 0 or 1 like heads and tails) and r-int (integers between 0 and 99).

Imagine selling insurance products for 30 years while never considering yourself a salesperson.
Now senior vice president of operations and compliance for Renasant Insurance in Tupelo, the personable Shempert admits she more or less fell into insurance sales as a career option in 1986.
And for four decades, Shempert has not only sold insurance, she’s been involved at every level of the industry, including holding the Accredited Advisor in Insurance designation, serving on multiple boards and teaching finance classes at the University of Mississippi’s Tupelo campus for a decade.
The Michigan native also has served as an expert witness in five insurance-related lawsuits.
Recently, Shempert was honored as the latest recipient of the J.H. Johnson Memorial Award at Independent Insurance Agents of Mississippi’s (IIAM) 118th Convention for her distinguished service to the industry.
Sitting in the audience with her fiance, Shempert was stunned to hear her name announced.
The award was created in memory of the late Col. James Henry Johnson, who was a founder of IIAM and served as its president on five occasions. Founded in 1899, the IIAM represents a network of more than 260 independent insurance agencies located throughout Mississippi.
Other than technology advances, little has changed in the insurance industry, according to Shempert.
Listening to the client remains job one.
Since entering the industry in the mid-1980s, Shempert has seen lots of changes.
Though born in Michigan, Shempert grew up in Corinth as a self-described ‘tomboy’ playing touch football and building forts.
“I spent a lot of time in the woods with the boys,” she said, laughing.
A big Dallas Cowboys fan and a long-time football season ticket holder at Mississippi State, Shempert enjoys hiking in her spare time.
“My sister and I have been very supportive of the Susan Komen 3-Day walks for about 10 years,” she said.
“Over a three-day span, we walk 60 miles to raise money and bring awareness to cancer. We do this once every two years, and it’s been extremely gratifying. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-21T02:11:26Z', 'url': 'https://msbusiness.com/2016/09/renasants-shempert-honored-johnson-memorial-award/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

Financial hardship doesn't just affect physical health; cognitive health suffers, too.
Financial health is closely related to physical health. Research has shown this, and that there are a variety of reasons why people in poor neighborhoods are not as healthy as those in wealthier areas. People in poor neighborhoods have less access to healthy foods compared to those who live in more affluent neighborhoods. They also tend to have fewer parks and outdoor spaces in which to exercise and decompress.
It's clear that living in poverty is not good for physical health, but what about mental functioning? There has not been much research on any possible impact, though a few studies have looked at the cumulative effect of socioeconomic hardship on cognitive function in the elderly.
But poverty makes younger people vulnerable, too, according to a new study. Young adults who grow up in poverty, and go on to experience financial hardship over the years, show reduced cognitive function.
“The overall size of [the] associations [we found] suggests that economic adversities experienced in young adulthood are important determinants of cognitive health in midlife,” the authors write.
Lead investigator, Adina Zeki Al Hazzouri, and her team collected income data six times from 3,383 adults over a 25-year period, from 1985 to 2010. In 2010, at a mean age of 50 years old, participants took three commonly used tests of cognitive function that are considered reliable measures of cognitive aging.
Young adults who grow up in poverty and go on to experience financial hardship over the years, show reduced cognitive function.
The researchers found a strong, incremental association between poverty and perceived financial hardship and poor performance on these tests. Those who had always lived in poverty performed significantly worse on tests of cognitive functioning than those who had never lived in poverty. The effect was more pronounced among African-Americans and women.
People are likely to experience income changes and mobility, especially between young adulthood and midlife, said Al Hazzouri, an assistant professor of public health at the University of Miami in Florida. So monitoring these changes over an extended time period may have significant implications for public health policy.
The study is published online in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-20T09:13:07Z', 'url': 'http://www.thedoctorwillseeyounow.com/content/public_health/art5107.html', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

Terms describe the translation of an DNS A record for IPv4 into a AAAA record for IPv6 – DNS46.
And DNS64 is translation of the IPv6 AAAA record into the IPv4 A record.
So, DNS46 will be used for accessing websites on the Internet that are IPv6 only and where your internal systems IPv4 only. Conversely, DNS64 is used for hosts that are IPv6 only to access legacy IPv4 services.
Thanks. And Fixed. Nice catch.
DNS64 translates A to AAAA so that IPv6 only hosts can reach IPv4 only resources through a NAT64 translator.
DNS46 would convert AAAA to A.
I agree with John. Can we get some clarification before confusion sets in, I stumbled across this post when googling for the difference between DNS64 and DNS46. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-21T08:13:12Z', 'url': 'https://etherealmind.com/network-dictionary-dns64-dns46/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
My first thought was, “If you need a holiday to remind you to tell people that you appreciate them, you’re doing it wrong.” Appreciation and gratitude should be free-flowing every day to everyone who contributes to your happiness and success.
This concept includes your clients, colleagues and, of course, support staff. The legal industry is a service industry. While it is a privilege to serve our clients, we couldn’t do it alone. Every day, our firm’s receptionist passes my door as she walks to our mailboxes. I like to randomly say, “Hey Peggy, you’re awesome!” I want her to know that she makes the lives of everyone in the firm easier — especially mine. She screens my calls, processes my bills, and keeps the office kitchen stocked with fruit snacks.
If you want to make a more concrete gesture of appreciation, try to give something you believe the particular person will enjoy. The minimalist probably doesn’t want a coffee mug with your firm’s logo on it, and your vegetarian colleague may not want to be treated to dinner at a steakhouse. Be creative and personalize it — the recipient will appreciate that you cared enough to think of them as an individual. If, for example, my firm wanted to give our receptionist a thank-you gift, we’d probably look into getting her tickets to the next NASCAR event (she really likes NASCAR).
Don’t wait for a holiday to tell someone you care about them. A message coming spontaneously from the heart matters the most. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-25T06:38:01Z', 'url': 'https://www.attorneyatwork.com/dont-need-holiday-show-some-love/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

Elliott Smith was one of the most gifted songwriters of the 90s, adored by fans for his subtly melancholic words and melodies. The sadness had its sources in life. There was trauma from an early age, years of drug abuse, and a chronic sense of disconnection that sometimes seemed self-engineered. Smith died violently in LA in 2003, under what some believe to be questionable circumstances, of stab wounds to the chest. By this time fame had found him, and record-buyers who shared the listening experience felt he spoke directly to them from beyond: astute, damaged, lovelorn, fighting, until he could fight no more.
What has received little attention is Capote's last, unfinished book, Answered Prayers, a merciless skewering of cafe society and the high-class women Capote called his "swans." When excerpts appeared he was immediately blacklisted, ruined socially, labeled a pariah. Capote recoiled - disgraced, depressed, and all but friendless. In Tiny Terror Schultz sheds light on the life and works of Capote and answers the perplexing mystery - why did Capote write a book that would destroy him? | {'timestamp': '2019-04-20T18:48:38Z', 'url': 'https://www.audible.com/search?searchAuthor=William+Todd', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
signs of a kidney stone (such as pain in side/back/abdomen, painful urination, blood in the urine).
The recommended oral dosage of Reyataz depends on the treatment history of the patient and the use of other co-administered drugs. Reyataz should not be taken together with ritonavir if you are also using the steroid medicine fluticasone.

The safety and tolerability of REYATAZ Capsules with and without ritonavir have been established in pediatric patients at least 6 years of age from the open-label, multicenter clinical trial PACTG 1020A.
The safety profile of REYATAZ in pediatric patients (6 to less than 18 years of age) taking the capsule formulation was generally similar to that observed in clinical studies of REYATAZ in adults. The most common Grade 2–4 adverse events (≥ 5%, regardless of causality) reported in pediatric patients were cough (21%), fever (18%), jaundice/scleral icterus (15%), rash (14%), vomiting (12%), diarrhea (9%), headache (8%), peripheral edema (7%), extremity pain (6%), nasal congestion (6%), oropharyngeal pain (6%), wheezing (6%), and rhinorrhea (6%). Asymptomatic second-degree atrioventricular block was reported in <2% of patients. The most common Grade 3–4 laboratory abnormalities occurring in pediatric patients taking the capsule formulation were elevation of total bilirubin (≥3.2 mg/dL, 58%), neutropenia (9%), and hypoglycemia (4%). All other Grade 3–4 laboratory abnormalities occurred with a frequency of less than 3%.
The data described below reflect exposure to REYATAZ oral powder in 155 subjects weighing at least 5 kg to less than 35 kg, including 134 patients exposed for 48 weeks. These data are from two pooled open-label, multi-center clinical trials in treatment-naive and treatment-experienced pediatric patients (AI424-397 [PRINCE I] and AI424-451 [PRINCE II]). Age ranged from 3 months to 10 years of age. In these studies 51% were female and 49% were male. All patients received ritonavir and 2 nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs).
The safety profile of REYATAZ in pediatric patients taking REYATAZ oral powder was generally similar to that observed in clinical studies of REYATAZ in pediatric patients taking REYATAZ capsules. The most common Grade 3–4 laboratory abnormalities occurring in pediatric patients weighing 5 kg to less than 35 kg taking REYATAZ oral powder were increased amylase (33%), neutropenia (9%), increased SGPT/ALT (9%), elevation of total bilirubin (≥ 2.6 timesx ULN, 16%), and increased lipase (8%). All other Grade 3–4 laboratory abnormalities occurred with a frequency of less than 3%.
In Study AI424-138, 60 patients treated with REYATAZ/ritonavir 300 mg/100 mg once daily, and 51 patients treated with lopinavir/ritonavir 400 mg/100 mg twice daily, each with fixed dose tenofovir DF-emtricitabine, were seropositive for hepatitis B and/or C at study entry. ALT levels >5 timesx ULN developed in 10% (6/60) of the REYATAZ/ritonavir-treated patients and 8% (4/50) of the lopinavir/ritonavir-treated patients. AST levels >5 timesx ULN developed in 10% (6/60) of the REYATAZ/ritonavir-treated patients and none (0/50) of the lopinavir/ritonavir-treated patients.
In Study AI424-045, 20 patients treated with REYATAZ/ritonavir 300 mg/100 mg once daily, and 18 patients treated with lopinavir/ritonavir 400 mg/100 mg twice daily, were seropositive for hepatitis B and/or C at study entry. ALT levels >5 timesx ULN developed in 25% (5/20) of the REYATAZ/ritonavir-treated patients and 6% (1/18) of the lopinavir/ritonavir-treated patients. AST levels >5 timesx ULN developed in 10% (2/20) of the REYATAZ/ritonavir-treated patients and 6% (1/18) of the lopinavir/ritonavir-treated patients.
In Studies AI424-008 and AI424-034, 74 patients treated with 400 mg of REYATAZ once daily, 58 who received efavirenz, and 12 who received nelfinavir were seropositive for hepatitis B and/or C at study entry. ALT levels >5 timesx ULN developed in 15% of the REYATAZ-treated patients, 14% of the efavirenz-treated patients, and 17% of the nelfinavir-treated patients. AST levels >5 timesx ULN developed in 9% of the REYATAZ-treated patients, 5% of the efavirenz-treated patients, and 17% of the nelfinavir-treated patients. Within REYATAZ and control regimens, no difference in frequency of bilirubin elevations was noted between seropositive and seronegative patients [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
The following events have been identified during postmarketing use of REYATAZ. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of unknown size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.

X Factor finalist Rylan Clark used his appearance on Saturday’s X Factor to make a joke at Gary Barlow’s expense, as he took to the stage on the love and heartbreak themed night.
The 23-year-old Essex boy – whose controversial saving on last Sunday’s show led Gary to storm off set – burst into a rendition of Back For Good as he kicked off his routine – only to tell the singer he was “only joking” before launching into a medley of uptempo songs including Groove is In The Heart, Pump Up The Jam and recent chart-topper Gangnam Style.
But while Gary appeared to see the funny side, it made no difference to his opinion of Rylan.
The catty exchange followed a moment earlier in the show which saw Gary and Louis shake hands and settle their differences over last week’s feud.
However it was a different story for other acts in Rylan’s category who won rave reviews from the judges as the evening progressed.
Jahmene wowed the panel by kicking off the show with his version of Amy Winehouse’s Tears Dry On Their Own – with Tulisa calling the 21-year-old “amazing” and Louis telling him, “You are one of my favourite ever contestants,” – while James Arthur also made a good impression, singing Mary J Blige’s No More Drama.
Meanwhile favourite Ella Henderson had another good week after wowing both judges and audience with a note-perfect rendition of Minnie Riperton’s Loving You.
The girls category also saw Lucy Spraggan fare well, covering Kanye West’s Golddigger in her own style, while Jade Ellis’ performance of Amy Winehouse’s Love Is A Losing Game was described as “amazing” by Gary.
Meanwhile the groups once again scored mixed results – with Union J’s cover of Leona Lewis’ Bleeding Love scoring good reviews from the judges, but MK1 and District 3 finding themselves on rockier ground.
“I don’t understand why Louis picked that song,” Tulisa said after District 3 had performed All 4 One’s I Swear, while Gary complained about the quality of the singing.
In the over-28s category, Melanie Masson triumphed with her version of INXS’ Never Tear Us Apart, but the judges weren’t so sure about Kye Sones and Christopher Maloney.
The results will be revealed on Sunday evening’s show, which will also feature performances from Rebecca Ferguson and Taylor Swift. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-19T18:28:50Z', 'url': 'https://www.whatsontv.co.uk/news/the-x-factor-rylan-gets-his-own-back-on-gary-206772/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
There is nothing for the club to say - the guy was only in for a trial and that presumably happens all the time. It's just the frenzy on here that made it any different. I'm sure dozens of unsigned players turn up at training throughout a season, it doesn't mean they are being given a contract.
The thing is you don't always get what you want. We have already signed 4 players who were targeted which is pretty decent. You want a player and them wanting you are two different things. Maybe the Slovaks' families did not want to move to Scotland; maybe they got better offers; maybe there are injury concerns; maybe they are house hunting right now. Once you have ran through all your targets (remember EVERY club is looking for players) you have then to consider some that weren't originally in the frame and some than just suddenly became available. Let's chill and see what happens.
Nice to see it’s not just us struggling to find a striker .
There are many reasons why deals may or may not work out, I'd like to hear where the club stands - whether we are, or are not, interested and pursuing.
So far we've lost 4 of the team that started against Kilmarnock, Lyness, Jones, Smith & Hammill.
We've signed replacements for Lyness, Jones & Smith. Are these guys better than the 3 guys replacing them?
No Idea, but then I've no idea if they are worse. Jones when Anton came in was one of our better players, Lyness did nothing wrong and in fact was a big contributor to our win at Motherwell. Smith v Lyons if the stuff being said about Lyons is correct then it’s safe to assume he is a better option, based on Smith’s season . Hammill is the reason we are still in with a chance of surviving. That’s not counting the fact that Anton may well be off, so all things considered we may well be weaker as a unit.
Actually quite liked Pal. And also Josh Todd - shame injury meant he never got a real run of games.
They love Josh Todd down at QoS, big Pal was always destined for dog meat though.
There are a fair few on here that thought players from Man Utd, Southampton, Middlesborough and Birmingham werent good enough for us. So just because player A. Comes from a championship/League one/Two club or has been loaned there means nowt.
what is a concern is it appears that aside from Lyons who required no scouting at all, we seem to have dried up already on the multitude of targets Gus had lined up.
We'll soon be back picking over the bones of players out of the picture at diddy premiership/championship clubs up here, and/or Oran getting free reign to populate our squad with a swathe of hammer-throwers from his old league.
Hammill is undoubtedly the loss and it was always going to be extremely unlikely that he could be replaced.
Only time will tell. I hope Sweeper is right and that we get a couple more in today or tomorrow. Big striker, winger and natural left back. After that loan players of quality in advanced positions.
I'm not looking for gifts. As another poster showed, in previous transfer windows, the later in the window the player signed then the better quality they tended to be.
You won't be disappointed then.
I thought he was at Everton but I think it's that he was an Everton fan.
I get what you're saying but guys like Newton and Dummett (and Billy O'Brien to a lesser extent) are very much exceptions to the rule.. Our record in this market is not cause for optimism.
I can see where you are coming from, though if he is one of the players we have monitored through our new vetting system, or at least done a bit of research on, there is nothing to say he's not worth having a look at.
The difference this time round to what Stubbs had done, is we are not quickfire signing anyone without at least having some sort of knowledge of them.
Every club with no money to buy players will be picking over the bones in the January transfer window majority of footballers contracts run out in the summer window.
You have no idea what targets or even how many were lined up and targets will change throughout January for several reasons players might not even become available till late on in January.
I get all of that, however, it doesn't stop me from wanting to hear more from the club. Happy with the business to date, just eager for more info.
We are all in the same boat . . . the good ship "Have Patience"
Cardiff striker Ibrahim Meite on trial according to The Sun.
Can’t be too sure. It could be a matter of waiting on the other club to get someone in before they release a player to us. We might as well wait until the window shuts before making our assumptions.
I thought someone boasting about their superhuman levels of empathy on another thread would at least show some of it in this case.
We have 4 fewer holes than we did last month for example. You could at least show some acknowledgement of that for a start. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-21T02:48:44Z', 'url': 'https://www.blackandwhitearmy.com/forums/index.php?/topic/26923-speculation-thread/page/609/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
August Bank Holiday – always a weekend of mixed emotions; nearly time to go back to school, and the Christmas trees have appeared in Woolworths (for younger readers, that used to be a sort of shop). But why not lighten the atmosphere and enjoy what promises to be a big weekend at Apedale. We are running steam all three days – and not just any old engine, but the newly-arrived Hunslet War Department Loco no.303. This is the only one of its type north of the equator. As if that wasn’t enough, Sunday is our annual Classic Cars Day when the site fills with polished chrome, that nice smell of leather and the sound of someone trying to start their Austin Allegro. Just £3 adults, £1.50 for kids on the train – and that gets you into to see the cars as well! What’s not to like? Maybe the thought of double maths before long….. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-24T16:50:14Z', 'url': 'http://www.avlr.org.uk/2018/08/august-bank-holiday.html', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

We went in to investigate and lo and behold, no greeter… and no chocolate. While you can still ask Cast Members for samples, it definitely takes away from the overall Ghirardelli “experience.” For many guests, passing by for a sample chocolate square made this store a sort of attraction in and of itself!
What do you think about the removal of the greeter position and the free chocolate samples?
Makes sense. Free and Disney never went together. That said, Disney Springs is the BEST property on WDW, Much better than Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios or Animal Kingdom. I know, no attractions like rides, but everything else is so much better run because Disney doesn’t run it.
You’re making it sound like it’s Disney’s fault that’s they’re stopping the samples, then you’re saying you like Disney Springs because it’s not run by Disney. It’s either one or the other.
Go away, then. Stop trolling the comments.
That’s good, now you can actually look at the merchandise they have for sale.
I will be coming to Disney at the end of April. Sad that there will not be greeting costumes at the door with free samples. I love Ghirardelli Chocolate so this will not stop my husband and I from coming in to buy your chocolate.
We vacationed in Orlando for a week in September and stopped twice at the store and they were only handing out samples one of the two times we went. Might just be dependent on the day?
It’s not, it’s a policy change.
When I went a couple of days ago, the lady working there said they started this change Christmas week.
Is it gone from California Adventure?
I must say it made me a bit sad. I never walked out of the store empty handed after having a sample. It just awakens your craving. Now I don’t even want to walk in. It feels very weird. And it is not that I won’t buy it if there is no free sample, but honestly I can have any other chocolate, nothing pulling me to the store now. It was also nice to try new flavours I would not necessarily buy on my own.
That’s too bad. Back in Sept.2016, I had forgotten about the greeters and samples there, so it was a pleasant surprise to meet them and get some free chocolate (my heart was set on a milkshake, at the time). Will still visit it, when we’re there this September. But it won’t be the same.
It was originally a perk for DVC members – Show your membership card and get a free chocolate sample. Much later it became free to all.
Great input, blu. I have seen guests just shove their hands into the sample basket without so much as a “Hello” or “Thank you!” to the greeter. Also Cast Members are awesome, so asking for a sample or a recommendation surely can’t hurt.
Sign of the times I guess. You can get a sample pack of healthy belgian chocolate at samplechocolates.com You could always bring it with to Disney. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-25T06:38:49Z', 'url': 'https://wdwnt.com/2019/01/photo-greeters-no-longer-offering-samples-at-ghirardelli-chocolate-shop-in-disney-springs/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

Maria of Sicily was born on 2 July 1363 as the daughter of Frederick the Simple and Constance of Aragon. Her mother died shortly after her birth, possibly as a result of the childbirth. When Maria was nine, her father remarried to Antonia of Baux, but that marriage remained childless, and Antonia died the following year. Her father was betrothed again, but a third marriage never materialised, and Maria remained his only child and heiress.
Her father died shortly after her 14th birthday and the regency was assumed by a group of barons knows as the “vicars”. Besides the Kingdom of Sicily, she also inherited the duchies of Athens and Neopatria. In 1379 Maria was kidnapped by Raymond of Montcada, a Sicilian nobleman. She was imprisoned for two years at Licata. She was eventually rescued by the Aragonese. She was first taken to Sardinia and later to Aragon, where she was married to Martin the Younger in 1384, who was a son of King Martin of Aragon and Maria de Luna. They returned to Sicily in 1392 with forces to defeat the opposing barons. Maria gave birth to a son in 1394, who was named Peter. Peter was Crown Prince of Sicily until his untimely death in 1400. They never had another child. She and Martin ruled Sicily jointly until Maria’s death in 1401. Her husband repudiated the Treaty of Villeneuve from 1372 and continued to rule Sicily on his own.
Maria is buried in Catania Cathedral, where her sarcophagus can still be seen.
After her husband’s death, he was succeeded by his own father, who by then had no legitimate successors. Sicily was then inherited by Ferdinand I of Aragon, who was a great-grandson of Peter II of Sicily. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-21T04:32:39Z', 'url': 'https://www.historyofroyalwomen.com/maria-of-sicily/queens-regnant-maria-sicily/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

Smell this, it's called 'Cowboy Cologne.' " Lili Singer stands in the nursery rubbing the leaves of a small gray-green plant between her fingers and takes a deep whiff. I follow her lead. The scent is pungent and heady - pure California hillside. We are visiting a new shipment of native plants that has just arrived at the Theodore Payne Foundation - a Sunland CA organization dedicated to restoring native California landscapes and habitats and educating people about them. Singer greets the plants like old friends. "Somewhere around 18, I discovered my God was in a carrot seed," she says. "To me, that process alone - growing something from seed - is miraculous."
So it's fitting that Singer took a position at the foundation as the director of special programs. Theodore Payne also found God in a seed. A young British horticulturist, Payne settled in Santiago Canyon in Orange County in 1893. "While he was there, he discovered matilija poppies and other California natives, and he saw development coming in," Singer explains. "He saw that people in California had no affection for their own beautiful plants. So he started collecting seeds and promoting them."
Now, Singer carries on Payne's legacy, bringing native plants to the masses and coordinating the foundation's popular garden tour, where members can see firsthand the beauty of native gardening. There is far more at stake here than pretty flowers, Singer says. "There are shrinking wilds out there and the garden can play an important role in preserving local plants and animals" by maintaining the continuity of native habitat.
Singer, a California native herself, first became widely known to Angelenos throughThe Garden Show, a live, call-in radio program on KCRW that she hosted from 1982 to 1996. Nearly encyclopedic on everything from aphids toZauschneria, Singer and her easy enthusiasm made the program ear candy for listeners. After the show went off the air, Singer worked as a garden consultant, wrote and published two award-winning newsletters, freelanced forThe Los Angeles Timesand has led garden talks at the L A County Arboretum & Botanic Garden since 2004.
As we exit through a nursery gate festooned with a climbing manzanita, Singer grows pensive. "Payne's idea of preserving California and the beautiful plants in it, as he saw the wild spaces going away, was visionary. We need to listen to his message even more today, because we didn't before." | {'timestamp': '2019-04-20T22:58:38Z', 'url': 'https://www.goinnative.net/blog/lili-singer-turns-californians-on-to-backyard-bounty', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
The general definition of an audit is an evaluation of a person, organization, system, process, enterprise, project or product. The term most commonly refers to audits in accounting. Audits are performed to ascertain the validity and reliability of information; also to provide an assessment of a system’s internal control. The goal of an audit is to express an opinion on the person / organization / system (etc.) in question, under evaluation based on work done on a test basis. Due to practical constraints, an audit seeks to provide only reasonable assurance that the statements are free from material error. Hence, statistical sampling is often adopted in audits. In the case of financial audits, a set of financial statements are said to be true and fair when they are free of material misstatements – a concept influenced by both quantitative (numerical) and qualitative factors.
Auditing is a vital part of accounting. Traditionally, audits were mainly associated with gaining information about financial systems and the financial records of a company or a business. However, recent auditing has begun to include non-financial subject areas, such as safety, security, information systems performance, and environmental concerns. With nonprofit organizations and government agencies, there has been an increasing need for performance audits, examining their success in satisfying mission objectives. As a result, there are now audit professionals who specialize in security audits, information systems audits, and environmental audits.
What is sales tax audit?
A sales tax audit is the examination of a company’s financial documents by a U.S. state’s tax agency to verify if they have collected the correct amount of sales tax from their customers. The purpose of a sales tax audit is to examine the business records of a vendor in order to determine if the appropriate amounts of sales tax revenue have been collected from the customer by the seller and remitted to the vendor’s state. The records reviewed during an audit often include: Sales Tax Returns, Worksheets and Canceled Checks, Federal Income Tax Returns, Corporation Tax Returns, General Ledger, General Journal and Closing Entries, Sales Invoices, Exemption Documents Supporting Non-taxable Sales, Charts of Accounts, Fixed Asset Purchases/Sales Invoices, Expense Purchases, Merchandise Purchases, Bank Statements, Canceled Checks and Deposit Slips, Cash Receipts Journal and/or Purchase Journal, Cash Disbursement Journal and/or Purchase Journal, The Corporate Book (Minutes, Board of Directors, Articles of Incorporation),Depreciation Schedules.
Why did I receive IRS Audit Letter?
Facing an IRS audit is highly feared by most taxpayers. Receiving an audit letter from the IRS is not anyone’s dream. Nobody wants to receive the dreaded IRS Audit Letter. Whether you are innocent or guilty, it still strikes fear in people because they have no idea what to expect. IRS is a government agency.
It is best, of course, to get professional assistance when dealing with this type of problem. Don’t meet with the IRS alone. After all, you are going into this situation cold and have no idea what to say or what to do. If you do have a certified public accountant assisting you, it will communicate to the IRS that you are taking it seriously, and that they will have to be at their very best to try and prove the case against you.
Keep in mind, the chance is good that your number just happened to be picked. IRS does do random selection of tax returns to audit. If you have been selected for an IRS audit, do not stress – be patient and call a certified public accountant who can help you.

The President said that the umpire 'insulted Pakistan' by accusing the team of ball-tampering.
President Pervez Musharraf had telephoned Pakistan's cricket team management in Britain and backed skipper Inzamam-ul-Haq's decision to keep his team off the field in the chaos-hit fourth Test against England at The Oval.
According to the Pakistan cricket management, Musharraf said that umpire Darrell Hair "insulted Pakistan" and the Pakistani skipper's decision to stage a dressing room protest over ball tampering charges during the tea interval was right.
However, Musharraf was not quoted directly by The News daily or by anyone in the cricket management.
"We have indicated clearly that we were willing to go out and that we want the match to continue," Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Shaharyar Khan said.
"The team were deeply upset at the implication they had been cheating. They wanted to protest by just waiting a few minutes and then come out to play," he added.
England was on Sunday awarded the test after a controversy erupted over the allegation that Pakistani players had indulged in tampering the ball and the team refused to continue with the game. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-23T00:06:05Z', 'url': 'https://www.hindustantimes.com/india/musharraf-joins-issue-with-darrell-hair/story-05Fic4fPSVz1FxGN2W2EuN.html', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

Louise Simonson was born Mary Louise Alexander in Atlanta, Georgia on September 26, 1946. Though best known as an American comic book writer, she has also been an editor and a colorist. Her best known work in comics are in such titles as Power Pack, X-Factor, New Mutants, Superman: The Man of Steel, and Steel. But how did she first get into the field of comics?
Well to begin with, in 1964 while attending Georgia State College, Louise met fellow student Jeff Jones. The two began dating and were married in 1966. Their daughter Julianna was born the following year. After graduation, the couple moved to New York City. It was there that Louise modeled for artist Berni Wrightson's cover of DC Comics' House of Secrets #92 (June–July 1971), which was the first appearance of Swamp Thing . She was then hired by McFadden-Bartell, a magazine publisher and distributor and worked there for three years. She and Jeff Jones split up during this time but she continued to use the name Louise Jones for several years afterward.
Louise then met the comic book writer and artist Walt Simonson in 1973 and the couple started dating in August 1974. They were married six years later in 1980.
In 1974, Louise Jones started her professional comic book career at Warren Publishing. She went from assistant to senior editor of the comics line, which included Creepy, Eerie, and Vampirella, before leaving the company at the end of 1979.
In January 1980, she joined Marvel Comics, where she initially worked again as an editor, most notably on Uncanny X-Men, which she edited for almost four years from issues #137–182. Louise, still under the name "Louise Jones", edited another X-Men spin-off, The New Mutants, at its debut in 1983. After leaving the series, she would have a "cameo" in New Mutants #21, drawn in as a slumber party guest by artist Bill Sienkiewicz). During this period, she also edited Marvel's Star Wars and Indiana Jones comics.
At the end of 1983, she quit her editing job at Marvel to try her hand at full-time writing under the name Louise Simonson. She created the Eagle Award-winning comic series Power Pack. The title, which debuted in August 1984, featured the adventures of four pre-teen superheroes. Simonson would write the majority of the title's first forty issues, even coloring one issue, that issue being #18. Her other Marvel writing works included Starriors, Marvel Team-Up, Web of Spider-Man and Red Sonja. Louise even helped her husband Walt Simonson color his "Star Slammers" story in Marvel Graphic Novel #6 (1983).
In 1986 Bob Layton, writer of the X-Men spin-off X-Factor, was running late on a deadline, and Simonson was called in to write a fill-in issue of X-Factor. This story was never published, since Layton ultimately turned his story in on time, but while writing it Simonson found herself inspired by the characters, to the point where she brought a list of her ideas to editor Bob Harras in the hopes that Layton might use them for the series. Instead, Layton ended up dropping X-Factor shortly after, and at Chris Claremont and Ann Nocenti's suggestion, Harras chose Simonson as his replacement. In #6, her first issue, she and artist Jackson Guice introduced Apocalypse, a character who would go on to make repeated appearances in the X-Men franchise. From #10 of the title, she was joined by her husband, Walt Simonson, on pencils. In #25, the creators gave the character the Angel blue skin and metal wings in a process which would lead to his being renamed as "Archangel". It was at Simonson's suggestion that X-Men writer Chris Claremont's "Mutant Massacre" story idea was turned into a crossover through all the "X-books", the first of its kind. Her run on X-Factor included the relevant installments of "Mutant Massacre", and the subsequent crossovers "Fall of the Mutants," "Inferno", and "X-Tinction Agenda". She ended her run on the title with #64 in 1991.
In 1987, beginning with issue #55, she became the New Mutants scripter. Similarly to X-Factor, she was originally brought in as a fill-in writer so that Chris Claremont could launch two other titles, but ended up writing the series for three and a half years, ending with #97 in 1991. It was during this run that she and artist Rob Liefeld introduced Cable, another important character in the X-Men franchise. In 1988-89, she and her husband co-wrote the Havok and Wolverine: Meltdown limited series painted by Jon J Muth and Kent Williams.
It’s also noteworthy to mention that Artist Paul Smith used Louise Jones' hairstyle on the character of Madelyne Pryor when introducing that character in Uncanny X-Men #168 (April 1983).
In 1991, Simonson began writing for DC Comics. She, artist Jon Bogdanove, and editor Mike Carlin launched a new Superman title, Superman: The Man of Steel — a title she would write for eight years until issue #86 in 1999. During that time, she contributed to such storylines as "Panic in the Sky" in 1992. Later that year, (along with Carlin, Dan Jurgens, Roger Stern and others) Louise was one of the chief architects of "The Death of Superman" storyline, in which Superman died and was resurrected. It was during that storyline, in The Adventures of Superman #500 (June 1993), that Louise and Jon Bogdanove introduced Steel, who graduated to his own title in February 1994, with Simonson as writer until #31. Steel even got his own feature film starring Shaquille O'Neal in 1997. Louise was one of the many creators who worked on the Superman: The Wedding Album one-shot in 1996 wherein the title character married Lois Lane.
In 1999, Simonson returned to Marvel to write a Warlock series, which featured a character from her previous New Mutants run. That same year, she wrote a miniseries, Galactus the Devourer, in which Galactus died temporarily. In 2005, she wrote stories featuring Magnus Robot Fighter for the publisher Ibooks, Inc. In 2007, Simonson wrote a one-shot starring Magik of the New Mutants as part of a four-issue event known as Mystic Arcana. In 2008-2009 she wrote several issues of Marvel Adventures. She also co-wrote the comic World of Warcraft, based on the multi-million player internet game, for Wildstorm, and a manga story, based in the Warcraft universe, for Tokyopop.
From 1993 through 2009, she wrote five picture books and eleven novels for middle-readers, many of which featured characters from DC Comics. Two YA novels, Justice League: The Gauntlet and Justice League: Wild at Heart, published by Bantam Books, were based on the Justice League cartoon. She wrote an adult Batman novel and the non-fiction DC Comics Covergirls.
Louise has also won many awards during her illustrious career. Most noteworthy being The Eagle Award for her work on Power Pack; The Comics Buyer's Guide Award for her work on The Death of Superman; and a San Diego Comic Con Inkpot Award for Outstanding Achievement in Comic Arts.
Of all the characters that Louise has created over the years, here is just a few.
Louise has had quite a successful career but none of it has gone to her head as she is one of the nicest and most humble people I have ever had the privilege of meeting. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-24T02:31:40Z', 'url': 'http://www.thefanofsteel.com/home/steel-profile/louise-simonson', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
The human brain is one of the final frontiers for technological innovation. Imagine a future where paralysis resulting from spinal cord injuries is only a temporary obstacle, rather than a permanent state. Imagine artificial limbs that can send the user feedback about how hot or cold their cup of coffee is, or just how tightly they are holding their loved one’s hand. Imagine a future where temporary implants can help an individual recover from a stroke or manage other debilitating neurological conditions. Now, all of these seemingly impossible medical applications of new technology stand to be within reach for bi-directional brain-computer interfaces.
ARM and the Center for Sensorimotor Neural Engineering (CSNE) have signed an agreement whereby the CSNE will develop a unique ‘brain-implantable’ system-on-a-chip (SoC) for bi-directional brain-computer interfaces (BBCI) aimed at solving neurodegenerative disorders. Based at the University of Washington, the CSNE is a National Science Foundation engineering research center working to develop innovative ways to connect a deep computational understanding of how the brain adapts and processes information with the design of implantable devices.
The research project will enable us to begin solving real world health problems with brain-implantable chips aimed at tackling a raft of debilitating neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease and even paralysis. The long-term goal is to assist people affected by neurological conditions, by engineering neurotechnology that will help the body heal, feel and move again.
The new SoC will play a vital role in decoding the complex signals formed within the brain, digitizing them so they can be processed and acted upon, with the end result of controlling the body’s muscle functions – which is the key to tackling neurodegenerative disease.
Brain-implantable chips need to be very small, highly power-efficient and capable. Our industry-proven ARM Cortex-M0 processor, the smallest ARM processor available, will contribute to this very important area of research by being an integral part of the CSNE’s brain-implantable SoC.
The project is a natural fit for ARM and our vision of improving lives around the globe by shaping a smarter, happier and healthier world with technology. Our ongoing goal of increasing the power-efficiency of ARM products aligns with CSNE’s advanced research work in developing low-power, efficient and implantable neural devices for medical applications.
The BBCI chip is being designed to address stroke, spinal cord injury and other neurological conditions. People who have experienced a stroke or spinal cord injury often have health issues, such as paralysis, which can impact their quality of life by preventing them from moving parts of their body, for example, a hand or an arm.
The research project will design a SoC which is able to take neural signals from the brain that represent movements the person with paralysis wants to make; before directing those signals to a stimulator implanted in the spinal cord itself. This will enable the person to make the desired movements when they want to, effectively overcoming their paralysis. In the future, the device will also be able to send information in the reverse direction, allowing the person to once again feel what their hand is touching.
Research is also demonstrating that use of such a system may eventually help to coax brain neurons to rewire in ways that help the brain recover from stroke. The result of this BBCI collaboration is development of neural devices that will benefit people by restoring sensation, limb function and augmenting the brain’s natural healing capabilities.
As it matures, this technology, when combined with the human brain - one of the most critical centers of the human body - could be used to solve myriad challenges in health care and beyond. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-20T16:48:15Z', 'url': 'https://www.arm.com/company/news/2017/05/arm-and-csne-team-up-to-develop-brain-implantable-chips', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
Managing stress effectively is an important part of maintaining overall wellness. Stress management skills do not come automatically; they must be learned and practiced. They are necessary to a successful recovery. Everybody experiences some stress in their lives. Some stress is positive and helps us stay healthy and feel active, but when stress becomes a constant condition, it can result in serious problems, physical and psychological illness, unhealthy lifestyles, including addiction.
How does stress show on the outside?
How does stress show on the inside?
Do I acknowledge stress and take steps to manage it?
How does our body respond to stress?
Stage 2 – Consuming Energy Stores: if it isn’t possible to escape from the first stage, the body begins to release stored sugars and fats from its resources, and a person feels more driven, pressured and tired.
Stage 3 – Draining Energy Stores: if stress does not get resolved, the body’s need for energy becomes greater than its ability to produce it, and a person becomes chronically stressed; at this stage, some people may begin to experience problems such as insomnia, errors in judgment, personality changes, heart disease, ulcers or mental illness.
Task-oriented coping – You think the situation through and take action to deal with it.
Emotion-oriented coping – You deal with your feelings and look for support from others.
Distraction-oriented coping – You use activities or work to take your mind off the situation.
Substance use may provide short-term relief from stress, but makes the situation worse in the long term.
Unmanaged stress can make it harder to solve problems and make healthy decisions.
Unresolved stress leads to relapse.
It is important to learn to manage stress effectively. The best ways to manage stress is to deliberately make time to relax. By gently and consistently re-directing our attention, we can learn to trigger the “relaxation response,” which reduces heart rate, blood pressure, muscle tension and other symptoms of excess stress. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-22T17:56:30Z', 'url': 'https://www.addictioninfamily.com/mental-health-2/stress-management-2/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

Playbill News: Bet On It: Disney Plans Fourth "High School Musical"
Bet On It: Disney Plans Fourth "High School Musical"
Disney has announced that writing has begun on the fourth installment in its lucrative "High School Musical" franchise.
With "High School Musical 3: Senior Year" slated for a fall film release, Disney Channel Worldwide president Rich Ross confirmed to the Hollywood Reporter that a fourth film is in the works.
There is speculation as to whether the young stars of "High School Musical" � including Zac Efron, Vanessa Anne Hudgens, Ashley Tisdale and Corbin Bleu � will return for a fourth installment. "Are we going to have all the cast back? Probably not," Ross informed the Hollywood Reporter. "Will we have some of them? I hope so."
The tales of Troy, Sharpay, Montez, Chad and gang continue to maintain popularity with 'tween audiences worldwide. After debuting on the Disney Channel in 2006, a concert tour and ice show were quickly launched. The ice show will also embark on a 2008 world tour, incorporating selections from the first two "High School Musical" films.
Shortly following its Disney Channel premiere, "High School Musical" was also fast-tracked for adaptation into a stage property of the same name. The 2006 stage musical, incorporating two new songs, has become popular with high schools and community theatres nationwide. Resident regional productions of the profitable crowd-pleaser have also popped up at major venues, and an ongoing national tour was launched in 2007.
Disney continues to capitalize off the force of "High School Musical" with a stage adaptation of "High School Musical 2" and High School Musical Jr. slated for licensing from Music Theatre International later this year.

Having forgotten my good friend Mark`s birthday recently, last night I decided to make him a belated birthday cake. I duly bought the ingredients for a Victoria sponge and beat and baked for the next hour or so. When it was time to take it out of the oven, lots of the mixture had overflowed and was now glued hard to the oven floor.
I thought, never mind and lifted the cakes out of the oven. They looked rather nice. After ten minutes I was ready to transfer them to a place to cool. Unfortunately and in spite of greasing the cake tins liberally with butter, the sponges had stuck to the tins. When I gently tried to prise them out with a knife they just fell apart in many light and airy heaps of brokenness.
I was disappointed and briefly contemplated making a trifle but then thought better of it and decided to make another cake in the morning and give the cake disaster to the birds.
When I got up this morning, inexplicably, the once light and airy cake had mysteriously altered and now weighed about two stone. I don`t have any idea how this transformation has taken place and it poses many metaphysical questions for me….. I took it outside to scatter over the garden for the birds and watched with interest as some crows and magpies alighted on the ground to eat their early morning feast.
One by one, the birds lay down on their backs and started rubbing their bellies with their feathery wings. One of them has just knocked my kitchen door and asked if he could come in for a lie down and two others are currently on my grandson`s bike in the hall, pedalling away furiously.

Those few words `something to eat` always fill me with dread since going for something to eat with my mother in law is so fraught with obstacles to happiness and so instilled with indecision, it is generally a nightmare to manage. However being a bit of a Buddhist and knowing that Buddha teaches us to surrender to the moment, that is what I did and we set off for Jeannie`s house. Jeannie and Joyce are sisters.
“What is The White Swan anyway?” And I said, “You know what it is Joyce, it`s a carvery, we`ve been there loads of times.” Jeannie said quite a lot in the back of the car about fresh vegetables and how Joyce should eat fresh vegetables.
Half way back Jeannie said, “Why don`t we go to The Peacock, they have lovely fresh vegetables there.” So I diverted the car again and drove them to The Peacock which is a really nice, traditional pub set in the Worcestershire countryside. When we got there I said, “You choose where to sit, I don`t mind,” so they chose a table in the back of the pub close to the balcony where the pretty French windows opened on to the lawn.
We started looking at the menu, “Oooh,” said Jeannie, “It`s a bit draughty! Are you sitting in a draught Joyce?” “It`s alright Jean, I`ll put my coat around your shoulders,” said Joyce.
I said, “Why don`t you find another seat where it isn`t draughty?” I always expect them to change seats at least twice and when all three sisters including Lillian are together it can take up to forty five minutes just to get them settled while they argue the toss.
We ventured into the far recesses of the dining room and eventually they found a table they both liked.
After we had decided what we wanted, a nice little waitress came over and asked for our order. One of the reasons why I don`t take Joyce for lunch very often is because she is so rude to staff, she speaks to them like they are flotsam and barely worthy of being flicked off her lapel. Take the last time I took her out, she snapped her finger and thumb at the barman and in a voice loud enough for the whole restaurant to hear demanded a clean wine glass, saying, “This one is dirty I can smell it, don`t tell me it isn`t I`m not stupid!” He was so polite and apologised even though he didn`t need to. I wondered whether he took the glass around the back of the bar, spat in it gave it a wipe round with his sleeve and returned it to her with a smile.
Anyway, to continue; “I want prawn cocktail,” she said to the waitress, “but I only like little prawns, I can`t eat the big ones, they make me feel ill, it`s something about the texture.” “But you like crayfish tails,” ventured Jeannie helpfully. “Don`t tell me what I can and cannot eat Jean!” said Joyce gritting her teeth and banging her little fists on the table.
I ordered breaded mushrooms with a blue cheese sauce, Jeannie had the prawns too which the waitress brought to our tables quite quickly.
“Those aren`t little prawns, I distinctly ordered little prawns,” said Joyce. “Take it back.” Jean and I were tucking in by now. My mushrooms were yummy.
The waitress apologised and enquired extremely politely what else my mother in law might like instead. “I suppose I`ll have soup,” she said with an expression that would have shrivelled a slug at ten paces. “Oh I think this is lovely!” said Jeannie, shovelling in the prawns. I ate Joyce`s cocktail. It was scrummy in a sharp, home made thousand island sauce served with rocket, my favourite. The balance of flavours was just right.
The atmosphere became thick enough to cut with one of the kitchen knives. Seeing the look of shock on Joyce`s face that I had the audacity to speak to her in this way, I sighed and placing down my knife and fork said, “Why don`t we ask them to put it in the microwave?” ” No it`s alright,” she said sniffily and ate a few mouthfuls, like she was some sort of martyr and then pushed it aside. Jeannie and I finished it, it was delicious.
For my main course I chose steak, well done, with chips, mushroom and vine tomatoes. Joyce had chosen rib of beef with mashed potato and green beans and Jeannie chose steak and ale pie with fresh vegetables.
Jean and I tucked in, our meal was great I really couldn`t fault it, the steak was cooked to perfection. After demolishing the contents of her pie Jeannie picked up the pastry case and ate it with her fingers. She was visibly enjoying her meal.
Joyce picked at her rib of beef, ate a bit, left the mash as it had horseradish in it and she doesn`t like horseradish, left her green beans, she doesn`t like green beans, so me and Jeannie shared what she had left. The beef melted in our mouths, it was heavenly, the gravy was a meaty melody on our tongues, the mash divine. Anything we couldn`t manage because we were so completely plodged, I wrapped up in tissue paper to take home for my lucky dog Alfie.
Joyce`s face maintained a thoroughly miserable expression as she attempted to put a dampener on the meal. It didn`t work.
We drove home more or less in silence but I didn`t mind, I was so happily full I wouldn`t have to eat for a week!
Letter to Cherry at Jenny Craig.
You have such a food-y name it keeps tempting me to call you Cherry Cake.
When I first contacted Jenny Craig I spoke to a colleague of yours called David. He has a lovely voice, a very engaging voice and sounded ever so like Dermot O`leary. On the other hand Cherry, you sound exactly like Lenora Crichlow who plays Annie in Being Human. This has led me to ponder whether I have in fact been having a conversation with 2 actors who are gaining experience for a forthcoming TV reality show but in any event a week ago persuaded by your lovely voice, I decided to join the Jenny Craig diet plan.
I wouldn`t normally fork out for a ready prepared diet as they are very expensive. This one is usually on offer at £11 a day or £301 a month which is way too much money for me to afford. At the moment though it is being offered at half price for the first month, so for just over a fiver a day they deliver to your door a months` supply of breakfast, lunch, dinner and loads of snacks. I think that`s pretty competitive. If I stroll over to ASDA near where I work to buy just my lunch, you can guarantee I`ll spend more than a fiver.
Anyway, I was full of enthusiasm and very excited when two large boxes arrived at my house packed with all sorts of goodies. I began the diet last Wednesday and for the first two or three days I was doing really well. Of course you already know that Cherry as you are my consultant and telephoned me on day 2 to see if everything was OK and it was….. at that point I felt really committed to sticking to the plan.
And then we hit the weekend. On Friday night `committment` got tucked away somewhere inside my head where I had also neatly stored `enthusiasm,` alongside `application`. I briefly reflected that if I took some exercise it would distract me from thinking about food, so I did, me and the dog walked to the offie and bought a bottle of California Soft and Fruity which was very nice.
By Saturday morning I was positively slathering at the mouth for something with fat in it so I ate several pieces of toasted rye bread laden thick with butter and marmite, a soft boiled drippy egg (delicious) and three chunks of extremely sharp Cheddar cheese.
Later, when my ex-old man woke up and sat down in the kitchen for his morning cuppa, I pointed out in an accusatory sort of a way that he had previously said he would cook me a balti. Tony is a particularly gifted cook, people travel from afar to taste his curries. He looked puzzled, “I thought you were on your diet,” he said. “Bugger the diet,” I replied. That evening he presented me with the most mouth wateringly delicious minced lamb and prawn balti cooked lovingly with butter, spices, chilli and creamed coconut, every spoonful was a spoonful of balti heaven. The home made naan breads were pretty spectacular too.
Yesterday evening my lovely daughter Becky called round with all the grandchildren. Beck and I sat in the kitchen chatting and laughing recounting our day and telling stories and jokes to one another over several generous glasses of Chablis. As we talked, so the grandchildren gradually rifled through my Jenny Craig boxes and noshed away most of the crisp and biscuit snacks, several tubs of Jenny Craig pot noodle, two portions of Jenny Craig lasagne, some Jenny Craig chicken and potatoes and a Jenny Craig Moroccan style chick pea tagine. There are five grandchildren so the boxes have been heavily plundered and are hugely diminished, it`s a tragedy! I should mention it was shortly after their feast that one or other of the two youngest managed to pull down the curtains in the living room and when I enquired which one of them had done it, they turned their sweet little faces to me and said, “we don`t know which one of us did it nanny.” Must have been the sugar rush from the extremely moreish Jenny Craig chocolate chip cereal bars.
I`m just off to bed now with a few midnight snacks. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-25T08:45:19Z', 'url': 'https://anightinwithnelly.wordpress.com/category/food-and-dieting/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

Osage County Emergency Management has banned all outdoor burning due to very high fire danger today, Monday, April 30, 2018. A forecast of possible wind gusts of up to 45 mph this afternoon contributes to the rangeland fire index in the very high category for much of northeast Kansas.
A county burn ban means no outside burning is allowed, and all burn permits are suspended until 8 a.m. May 1, unless the burn ban is extended.
The National Weather Service at Topeka forecasts today will be mostly sunny, with a high near 81; windy, with a south wind 20 to 30 mph, and gusts as high as 45 mph. In addition, NWS has issued a wind advisory that will be in effect from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-22T16:43:21Z', 'url': 'http://www.osagecountyonline.com/archives/29474', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

Heat 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add the sausage and cook, using a spatula to break it up into small pieces. Continue cooking until the sausage is well browned, about 15 minutes.
Add the minced garlic to the sausage and let cook for 1 minute or so, until fragrant. Then remove the sausage and garlic to a plate and set it aside for later.
Return the skillet to the stove top. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and all of the beef broth to the skillet. Bring to a boil and let cook for 1 minute to reduce slightly. Add the chard and cook, uncovered, for about 7 minutes, or until the chard is tender.
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fusilli and cook according to package directions, about 10 minutes. When the pasta is tender, reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water and drain the pasta.
Add the drained fusilli to the skillet that has the Swiss chard. Add the sausage back to the skillet as well and toss to combine. Add a bit of the reserved pasta water if the pasta seems dry. Sprinkle the pasta with the feta cheese and fresh herbs. Season generously with kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper, and drizzle with another two tablespoons of olive oil. Toss to combine, then serve. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-20T17:14:13Z', 'url': 'https://www.ericajulson.com/wprm_print/3007', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

Zecotek to Jointly Develop Commercial Radiation Detection Unit with Radiation Safety and Homeland Security OEM – Zecotek Photonics Inc.
Singapore, May 18, 2017 – Zecotek Photonics Inc. (TSX-V: ZMS; Frankfurt: W1I.F, OTCPK: ZMSPF), a developer of leading-edge photonics technologies for industrial, healthcare and scientific markets, is pleased to announce that due to the superior performance of its patented LFS scintillation crystal the major OEM developing radiation monitoring and detection devices is moving forward with Zecotek to jointly develop a large area, commercially ready radiation detection unit.
As previously announced in April and June of last year, the major detection OEM ordered Zecotek’s patented LFS scintillation crystals for two applications. The first was a device for large cargo screening at land crossings such as border crossings, airports, and harbours. The second order of LFS crystals were tested for screening applications for luggage, bags, packages, for high security locations including government buildings, sports stadiums, conventions centers and other crowded venues.
Due to the performance and the successful testing of the LFS crystals, the two companies have committed to jointly develop a commercial unit.
Increasing international tensions on homeland security, have contributed to the significant growth in the radiation safety market. Governments and private businesses need a radiation detection solution that is reliable and easy to implement. A scintillation detection system consists of scintillation crystals, photo detectors, electric signal and processing electronics. The units are smaller and more efficient than competing systems. LFS crystal based systems can be made to cover large areas and can be used in multiple application including radiation detection, assay of radioactive materials and physics research. They are less expensive to implement, have very reliable quantum efficiency and can measure both the intensity and the energy of incident radiation.
Zecotek’s patented Lutetium Fine Silicate (LFS) scintillation crystals have been specifically produced to provide quick and effective radiation detection of a large area. With a higher spectroscopic resolution and a decay constant that is 10 times faster and more accurate, LFS crystals are far superior than most competing crystals. The new scanning device will have the capacity for significant throughput with superior imaging performance and high resolution images.
The homeland security and radiation detection represents a sizeable market opportunity for Zecotek. Industry experts predict that the market for instruments specifically designed to measure radiation is estimated to grow to US$3.5 billion by 2022. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-18T12:46:29Z', 'url': 'http://zecotek.com/2017/05/18/zecotek-to-jointly-develop-commercial-radiation-detection-unit-with-radiation-safety-and-homeland-security-oem/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

'All things aren't equal for Tasmanian's with brain injury.' Deborah Byrne, BIAT executive officer, continues to raise awareness of brain injury with this 'talking point' article published in The Mercury Newspaper on Friday 26th of January 2018.
It is estimated that 2500 Tasmanians sustain a brain injury, across all severities each year.
Whilst it can be argued that life today is better for some Tasmanians with brain injury and their families, there continues to be groups that remain at risk of unnecessarily restrictive lifestyles, poor access to services and opportunities and other serious inequities.
The Brain Injury Association of Tasmania (BIAT) believe this is largely due to misconceptions about this disability amongst the wide range of services people with brain injury access and, more importantly, services not understanding why they need to be aware of, or have knowledge about, brain injury.
It remains a source of frustration to BIAT that brain injury has barely made a dent on the public imagination, let alone on those policies and practices that discriminate against and exclude people living with brain injury, frequently putting them at risk of neglect and abuse.
The impact of brain injury is often ongoing and can impact an individual's physical, cognitive and psychosocial functioning.
Common characteristics include problems with memory, judgement, decision making, communication, balance, impulsivity, managing behaviour, and depression.
These problems increase the risk of numerous socioeconomic factors, including unemployment, homelessness, drug and alcohol problems, family violence, poor mental health, contact with child safety services and suicide.
However, increased awareness of brain injury, and the support services available, has the potential to prevent the downward spiral of negative life events.The implications of the risks for individuals and families affected by brain injury are devastating, and represent significant financial and social cost to the Tasmanian community.
The 2009 Access Economic Report 'The economic cost of spinal cord and traumatic brain injury in Australia' provides detailed information on productivity and other financial costs associated with moderate and severe traumatic brain injury including: lower employment, higher absenteeism from paid work, reduced domestic productivity, premature death, carer costs and deadweight losses.
The report estimates the cost of traumatic brain injury in Australia to be $8.6 billion. With the rate of brain injury in Tasmania estimated at 2.2 per cent, the proportional costs for Tasmania is $189.2 million.
It should be noted this figure excludes mild traumatic brain injury, and that mild to moderate brain injury is on the rise in Australia. Furthermore, the term 'mild' refers to the severity of the initial trauma that caused the injury. It does not indicate the severity of the ongoing consequences which can still be complex and ongoing.
Research findings position brain injury as a contributing factor to, and consequence of, family violence, and suggest urgent attention is needed to ensure the effects of living with a brain injury are accommodated in current family violence intervention and prevention strategies.
People with disability, particularly brain injury, are more at risk of being jailed and, without adequate support or with interrupted care, of reoffending. Despite nearly all forms of disability being more common among prisoners than the general population, the National Disability Insurance Scheme specifically excludes prisoners.
There is a common belief that the NDIS will address many of the issues people with brain injury and their families face. In reality many people with brain injury will not be eligible for the NDIS or, without an enabling infrastructure, have the capacity to access the NDIS.
To compound the issue, the introduction of the NDIS has seen a reduction in the number of specialist brain injury service providers in Tasmania, with only one now remaining.
BIAT's future under the NDIS is also uncertain. Its closure, after 20 years of service, would result in a significant loss of social capital to the Tasmanian community.
Lack of understanding about the nature and characteristics of brain injury by successive Tasmanian governments has resulted in the brain injury programs and supports being shunted between government departments who believe responsibility lies elsewhere - with the health sector, with the disability sector, with the justice sector.
The services required by a person with brain injury are many and varied. Their needs do not sit neatly within any one government portfolio, including the disability sector. In fact, people with brain injury do not always need disability services and may be more likely to require mainstream services.
If people living with brain injury, and their families and carers, are going to be truly supported and included in Tasmanian society they need a whole of government approach - to ensure timely and equitable access to the specialist and mainstream services they need, and not-for-profit brain injury services continue to be an integral part of Tasmania's community sector.
By Deborah Byrne - executive officer of the Brain Injury Association of Tasmania.

Plot: Ben Holmes, a professional book-jacket blurbologist, is trying to get to Savannah for his wedding. He just barely catches the last plane, but a seagull flies into the engine as the plane is taking off. All later flights are cancelled because of an approaching hurricane, so he is forced to hitch a ride in a Geo Metro with an attractive but eccentric woman named Sara.
Taglines: He went from the eye of the storm, into the arms of a hurricane. Why watch the Force when you can watch... Forces of Nature?
Ben Holmes: Quoting Bishop Jeremy Taylor, "Marriage hath in it less of beauty but more of safety, than the single life; it hath more care, but less danger, it is more merry, and more sad; it is fuller of sorrows, and fuller of joys; it lies under more burdens, but it is supported by all the strengths of love and charity, and those burdens are delightful."
Ben Holmes: Are you going to be here when I get back?::Sarah Lewis: You know me.::Ben Holmes: I would not presume.
Sarah Lewis: I don't deserve heaven.::Ben Holmes: Oh Sarah, you deserve so much more than you think you do.
Ben Holmes: I haven't known you that long, but I think there may be something wrong with you.
Sarah Lewis: Two wayward travellers stuck in a Geo with a guy named Vic.
Sarah Lewis: What other options do we have? We have no options. None!::Ben Holmes: Yet somehow they seem more appealing than this.
Ben Holmes: Sarah, everybody loves you, you just... you just think they're all wrong.

Can you afford to use price comparison sites?
Can you AFFORD to use Price Comparison websites?
Landlords and Letting offers all kinds of landlord insurance at great value prices. One way to help keep these insurance products very competitive is to NOT appear on so-called price comparison websites. And of course it must be said that not all insurance providers do appear on these sites.
Almost all price comparison sites, whether they are comparing insurance, meals out or anything else, have to charge the companies that appear there a lot of money. This is simply because the sites themselves spend a large fortune advertising themselves in the most lavish of ways.
And who do you think ends up paying for this advertising? Yes, you guessed it!
The latest incredibly lavish productions show Aleksandr and Sergei encouraging people to go to the movies. You don’t want to go to the movies, you want the best buy! They even have a special website for you to view their gorgeous creations! If you have seen the ads, can you even begin to imagine how much this self-indulgent nonsense costs? It’s a price comparison site – not the latest Disney blockbuster!
Then there are the ads showing an irritating opera singer flying through the air, or eating a cornetto or whatever and Confused.com has the ubiquitous James Corden driving across America. I think we’ve all had enough of him haven’t we? And of course there are those awful excrutiating Moneysupermarket ads with inexplicably camp men walking about in hot pants or dancing with an equally camp Skeletor. All of these cost a fortune to make and indeed the TV time alone must be incredibly expensive.
You are probably the one paying for this nonsense!
And it all has to be paid for. And you will probably be the one paying for it because you can only be shown those companies who pay the price comparison sites to be listed and those companies have to cover this cost somehow. I cannot categorically state here that you will pay more by using the sites mentioned and I know that to some extent the economies of scale will play a part, but you can be sure that you are very unlikely to GET THE BEST DEAL by only shopping on price comparison websites. Simples!
NOT on price comparison sites.

I believe that the Twelve Visions Party’s “National Bylaws” is a groundbreaking document that will change the way political parties had behaved and misbehaved since the very beginning of this great nation. The Twelve Visions Party’s “Prime Literature” is of thousands of pages of very prime literature that develops an idea system. In which for a very much better and new world could raise and rise. This Prime Literature idealizes the Twelve Visions Party that has been in the works of author Mark Hamilton for more than three decades or more than thirty years. Which I believe that his thinking tools and applications will free our civilization from subjugation of political leaders and their ruling class pushers that are very much seriously downing America. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-21T00:31:00Z', 'url': 'https://www.theneothinksociety.com/testimonial/believe-twelve-visions-partys/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

Basunti overlooks a lake formed from the damming of the Beas River in the north-west corner of India. It lies in the western edge of Kangra Valley in the hill state of Himachal Pradesh. The nearest towns are Pathankot just over the border in the Punjab and Dharamsala, the administrative centre of Himachal Pradesh.
Pathankot, a small provincial city, is served by daily trains from Delhi and other parts of India and is a two hour drive from Basunti. Near Pathankot is another major rail interchange in Chakki Bank which too has a daily overnight trainfrom Delhi. There is also a daily internal air service from Delhi to Dharamshala airport.

You know those moments at the beginning of an infomercial in which at person is shown (usually in black-and-white) hopelessly failing at some simple task? Usually these scenes are accompanied by the sound of an overly dramatic narrator saying something like “Oh no!”, “Not again!”, or some other expression of woe.
An “Oh No, Not Again!” thanks to longtime reader Al Frank for letting us know about the “Thanks, Obama!” phenomenon. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-20T04:31:19Z', 'url': 'http://www.infomercial-hell.com/blog/2013/02/01/thanks-obama-internet-meme/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
Handmade with Love – Craft & Gift Market is going to be an incredible Craft & Gift Market this Saturday, February 12 in Easthampton. I hope you will come (if you live near enough). There are going to be many fabulous items for sale, including my mysterious photographs in several forms.
Hey, everybody, I have a request! I’m writing a book about negative experiences customers/clients have had in restaurants or retail shops. Particularly treated shabbily by either the employees and owners of the establishment themselves. For example, I’ve had MANY experiences where I entered a retail shop and felt that I ought to ‘thank the employees for allowing me to enter the store’. How’s this one – Several employees are just standing around behind the counter and there’s ONE customer (you) WAITING to be asked ‘can I help you?’ After five or ten minutes an employee turns to you, not saying anything (no greeting, nothing) waits for YOU THE CUSTOMER to respond to his/her silence. Your response is greatly appreciated and I shall add it as fodder to my book.
Thank you Sue, I do need a nudge. I’ve been working on my screen play and have begun writing a book about my experiences as a customer/client in businesses where servicing the customer/client is a bit lacking. It’s sort of a primer for people who are interested in improving their “bottom line.” I believe that’s a corporate term, money – you know, increasing profits.
It’s been my experience making sure the person who wants to spend their hard earned money on whatever your selling is more pampered. I just thought I would lend a helping hand in sharing some pointers that may possibly help increase their do, re, mi.
How are you doing, Sue?
Thank you all for all the feedback and help you have given me online and off … onblog and off. You helped me create a card I am very pleased with!! Please try to look past the border … it doesn’t truly exist … it is in another dimension and has reappeared uninvited.
I will try to continue to post more often. I am making a commitment to post at least once a week. I hope you will check me out and raise the roof if I don’t keep my word.
Here are the two winners so far – without borders – Now, it is possibly clearer as to which choice you’ll choose. In between the second or third hot dog that just came off the grill (or hamburger or tofu dog) feel free to send me a comment. This has been a difficult process for me – your kind patience during this time has meant very much to me. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-25T00:23:24Z', 'url': 'https://www.susanelkin.com/blog/category/where-i-am-going/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
Last weekend, I walked into a Lego shop at Takashimaya to look for a present, with absolutely no interest in what I always thought were “boys’ toys”. Instead I was completely charmed.
Now I need to go to Legoland!!!
They made the people from bricks too! Not those with features painted on yellow bulbs as heads!
Barack Obama in Lego. WOW!
After my research online, I decided I want to build my own city, and thanks to the Twitteers who gave me a list of shops to go to in Singapore, I found one of the sets that would make the city.
If you want to chart my progress, and see which are the two sets that I’ve ordered and are currently on their way, remember to follow me on Twitter for the latest updates!
Meanwhile, check out the remaining sets I’m waiting to get my hands on, that will help me complete my city.
Look at what some others have done!
This was built by Ralph Savelsberg.
See the remaining town he built.
There are countless talented Lego builders on the Internet. If you’re keen to see the evolution of Lego Police stations, you can check out Joshua’s blog.
As for me, I think his evolution is not quite complete, because he left out the Space Police collection.
Lego really opens up a world of role play and possibilities!
If you’re a Lego Fan or if you know someone who’s really good at it, please share.
A couple of days ago I posted a discussion on Facebook to find out what some people think of grown adults being seen reading fiction meant for children, teenagers or young adults.
As for me, I think it’s important to read young adult fiction because in a way, they represent what is the current fad and in order to communicate and relate to them effectively , we need to immerse in their sub-cultures.
Actually, I started this thread because one random day, I had the sudden urge to read “The Diary of A Wimpy Kid”, so I “un-embarrassingly” asked my friend if I could borrow her daughter’s collection.
I finished the first book the day I brought home the collection and I have to say it is very entertaining because it is a straightforward and unapologetic perspective offered by a teenager, whose particular stage in life is never comprehensible to the adults.
The truth is our parents were all teenagers once, so why can’t they seem to understand and stop nagging?
Because more often than not, they try to relate to the current teenagers by applying what they went through during their own years, completely disregarding the societal, environmental, economic changes that have occured since then.
It is the same stage in life, but it happened in a different time and place, so it’s no longer applicable to the current teenagers. Very often, parents’ attempts to communicate end up being “incessant nagging”, from the perspective of the teen, which eventually results in the 3Rs – resistance, reluctance and in some cases rebellion.
For me, I find it hard to go back to a previous stage in life once you’ve moved past it. The only way I can, is to immerse myself in the literature of that time, to hopefully gain something that I’ve lost along the way. Not that during my time, the Diary of the Wimpy Kid was around though. Which is why I bought “A Wrinkle in Time“, to return to the kind of stories that I was familiar with when I was a child.
Somehow, children’s book written around the same time, like those by Enid Blyton and Roald Dahl, packaged lessons that both children and adults can learn in an imaginative world.
It’s nice to go back in time once in a while, to remember what it was like when we didn’t have so much baggage to lug around.
Flamed by the YOG Flame?
My involvement with YOG began when I was invited to be one of the torchbearers. It was one of those opportunities that probably come once in a lifetime!
It was a huge privilege and honor to represent MediaCorp TV and my particular Journey of the Youth Olympic Flame started on the 7th August at lamppost 73 along Marymount Road.
Steven Chia was representing News and Shan Wee for Radio.
We had to report at CHIJ Toa Payoh that rainy morning and was told not to bring anything that couldn’t fit into our shorts pocket.
Here's Shan passing me the torch along Marymount Road.
The torch weighed 700g and wasn’t as heavy as I thought it would be, which I think is significant because the YOG spirit was never meant to be a burden.
The fact that many torchbearers come from all walks of life goes to show that YOG is not just for athletes or youths. It’s an event that everyone can participate!
After I completed my 100m, I hopped on the bus and headed to RI where there were a few interviews carried out.
Speaking of which, there was one that got some buzz on the Internet forums.
This is a perfect example on how using emotionally charged words in headlines can completely twist the story and mislead the reader.
I don’t know for sure, but I highly doubt it’s the reporter’s call because if that was her angle, it would have unveiled itself in the story. You see, she would have to interview people to get quotes to support her story.
and definitely the organizers – to find out the consequences (if any) as a result of my “selfish” act.
Now wouldn’t that be a story! But since there was nothing in her story to suggest that she was trying to fault me for my “selfish act”, I presumed the headline was designed by someone else after the story was written, which is not uncommon practice according to what I studied in journalism school.
I believe that if someone impartial were to read the article without first seeing the headlines, that would not be the natural conclusion they arrive at. Although I wouldn’t go as far as to completely rule out the possibility.
It’s easy to misunderstand the first paragraph in the absence of a full context because the reader has not been informed of it. The article did not include what was briefed to the torchbearers prior to our run; nor did I tell the reporter what my support runners said to me during my run. Even though these mundane information provide a context, which will allow the reader to better form their judgement, they just don’t add value to the story and is often not the focus of an article, in a newspaper whose main aim is to sell papers!
Having said that, it’s sad that whoever chose the headlines had to put a dampener on the celebration of something as rare as this. It was a day where strangers came together, regardless of race, age, gender, occupation, to support and cheer one another on like friends and made us truly one united people.
I’ve never been more proud that my country is hosting the YOG.
The last time I attended the National Day Parade live was at the National Stadium when I was performing in the band during my secondary school years. After that, I had to contend with watching the parade from television every year.
This year, it was held at Padang and by serendipity, I managed to get last minute tickets (at 5.20pm!) to the parade.
There was a massive crowd around City Hall area as everyone tried to catch a glimpse of the sky performances. We weaved through the mass of people and finally got to the venue, hot and confused. Thankfully there were a lot of ushers around to point us the right way.
I’ve never seen so many uniformed men converge at one venue!
We were supposed to be seated at the Green sector, but we were told there were no more seats, so we ended up at the Yellow sector and this was the sight that greeted us when we popped our heads out of the scaffold spectator stand.
I’m guessing you have to come early to “chope” seats? Anyway, we ended up sitting on the steps which was a lot less stress-free because it would be really disruptive to the rest if we needed to answer nature’s call.
The sea of red is gorgeous!
The backdrop complements the celebrations, especially when night fell and the lights took over.
I found out from the magazine in the goodie bag that there were 7 different designs of it.
I plucked out the candy portion and ate only the biscuit!
The President driving past our section.
I love the sounds of these jets! I especially like the display where 2 jets criss-crossed one another and when one of the jets took a vertical climb up into the sky.
The entrance and exit points for the formation performers were on the side I was sitting on, so I could snap these “behind-the-scenes” photos!
The flash on my camera reflected off the costumes of these performers.
Sparks and aerial performer really took the show to another level! The lights casted on the columns of the Supreme Court really made the show exceptionally colourful!
The costumes made them look like characters off some video game. Quite scary!
The aerial shot of this was gorgeous from the screen, where Kit Chan was perched at the tip of the crescent moon. It was the perfect formation for us to recite our pledge. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-25T06:27:31Z', 'url': 'https://ajollyaffair.wordpress.com/2010/08/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
That’s what the weather channel has planned for tomorrow. The brief blurb says 80% chance of heavy rain/wind. This is of course hurricane/tropical storm Ike now that it has made its way on land.
I am shooting the St. Charles Marathon tomorrow. Marathons go on, rain or shine. That means photographers work, rain or shine. I am shooting with the Action Sports Images team out of Kansas City. We are all digging up our wateproof shoes, finding rain protection for our gear and getting ready for a long and wet day.
Since I have to be up around 5:30 am, I decided to pack my bag tonight. Luckily I am shooting for specific shots and don’t need to bring a slew of gear.
A variety of energy bars.
Not pictured are my energy drinks, waterproof boots, microfiber shirt, light weight pants…etc.
The marathon starts at 8am. If it is raining hard all morning and very windy, it could get cold very fast. Last year, I stocked up on chemical hand warmer packs. I might bring a few just in case. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-25T02:32:30Z', 'url': 'https://www.gershphoto.com/st-charles-marathon-2008/', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |

That pesky First Amendment keeps getting in the way of people who want to trample it.
At the University of Hawaii, Hilo, two students were prevented from distributing copies of the Constitution – that wretched document guaranteeing freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly and stuff like that – and now they’re suing the university, reason.com reports.
Merritt Burch, president of the Young Americans for Liberty chapter at UH, and Anthony Vizzone, another member, were stopped by school officials on a campus information day, because, instead of staying behind their outdoor table, they joined others in walking around to distribute copies of America’s most treasured document. The administrators ordered them to stop violating a school rule by approaching students, dismissing the First Amendment out of hand.
Instead, university officials told the pair to go to “the free speech zone,” a muddy plot on the periphery of campus.
Aspiring defenders of the U.S. Constitution do not take this lying down, so these two students engaged attorneys from the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education and filed suit in federal court on Thursday. They are seeking injunctive relief, the right to distribute literature on campus, a revision of the policy, dismissal of the so-called “free speech zone,” and attorneys’ fees.
As King George III learned the hard way, you don’t mess around with uppity young Americans. | {'timestamp': '2019-04-20T12:37:54Z', 'url': 'https://www.bizpacreview.com/2014/04/25/university-students-sue-for-right-to-distribute-copies-of-the-constitution-on-campus-114854', 'language': 'en', 'source': 'c4'} | c4 |
