Hands down, Guzaarish is the best movie made in 2010. The acting, set design, cinematography, script and direction express the broad lush brushstrokes of archetypal existential inquiries about death, love and life. On a local Goa radio station the protagonist Ethan Mascarenhas (Hrihik Roshan) starts his broadcasts speaking the message written above while lying paralyzed as a quadriplegic. His radio program spreads magic, hope & inspiration to avid listeners making it difficult to imagine how he has lived with a spinal injury for the last 14 years. The plotline in Guzaarish is driven by the many wonderfully human tragic delightful emotions pushing and pulling the film’s characters in a battle over what Ethan announces as Project Ethanasia. As the organs of his body are deteriorating Ethan wants to choose his moment of death rather than suffering through the inexorable erosion of his once vital health. His nurse Sophia (Aishwarya Rai) devotes 12 years of her life to serving Ethan. In a culture where euthanasia is a rarely discussed taboo, this film opens up questions of what is compassion and who has the authority to decide how and when a human being must live and die. Since I don’t want to spoil the plot, I won’t say much more except that the story kept me riveted & emotionally engaged. How this film & its actors were not nominated for Academy Awards is beyond me. Heck, Guzaarish didn’t even get consideration for Best Foreign Picture. Perhaps the Academy is unaware of the Indian film industry. While Slumdog Millionaire got Oscar recognition in 2008, it was listed as a British romantic drama. Not an Indian film which is odd considering Slumdog was filmed in India with an entirely Indian cast. BTW: Did I mention Hrihik Roshan & Aishwarya Rai are physically gorgeous? Anyway, check out Guzaarish. It’s a gorgeously shot film designed to probe deep into your own notions of what it means to love through unimaginable suffering or watching someone you love suffering. Netflix features it as an Instant Play. Let me know if lands in your heart like it did mine. Here’s a beautiful version of “What a Wonderful World” sung by Hrihik Roshan.

If you’re wont to believe in Mayan bullcrap, 2012 will be the last year terra firma stands firm. JUICE seeks the help of saged scenesters to give us a look into the crystal ball for a much needed insight into what will happen in the year 2012, hoping to gain some foresight of what will end in the year (if not the world). Rather, some tell us of their predictions, others of what they want to happen, and some offer fantasy scenarios. We’re not complaining, it’s better than watching John Cusack in 2012 the movie again… Humans, we love predictions. Everyone likes to play Nostradamus on and off. When JUICE asked me to predict in 200 words what’s going to end in pop culture in 2012, I faced a huge wall of stumbling block… [Puts on Akta Angkasa’s ‘Chatetan Konkerit’] First, I never belonged to the pop culture. Second, I was never a believer in prediction. Last but not least, I rarely play Nostradamus, I play God. Hence, I can’t predict what’s going to end in pop culture in 2012; I can only give my prophecies. In no particular order: Sevencollar T-Shirt To Call It A Day After three albums, well two, excluding the “lost” Freeway, Dreaming And Broke, what else? After witnessing how Radiohead destroyed themselves – well, Thom Yorke, single-handedly actually – Ham, Duan, Keng and Adil are smart enough to not take the same path. Unless Duan stops singing and uses his voice as an instrument, SCTS is to call it a day. Death to Dubstep If Jon Davis was quoted to say Korn “were dubstep even before dubstep”, this much glorified genre is already 19 years old. It should, as pop culture tends to (from my understanding or lack of understanding), normally last for two years, three if you push it. Mawi, M Nasir and Jamal Abdillah Goes Metalcore Metalcore will take over Malaysian music by storm. The genre has already expressed their mainstream-friendliness with covers of Justin Bieber and Bruno Mars. In 2012 we will witness a signing spree by labels – as this was written one band is already under the wings by one of the majors. Next, in bridging the gap (for the bands) and staying relevant (for the featured guests) we will see Mawi, M Nasir and Jamal Abdillah dropping choruses in metalcore songs.

Prof. Jed Macosko holds a B.S. from MIT and a Ph.D. from UC Berkeley. He was a postdoctoral researcher under Prof. Carlos Bustamante, and also under Prof. David Keller. The Macosko-Holzwarth lab is currently focused on the mechanical properties of cancer. Prof. Macosko first collaborated with Dr. George Holzwarth in 2004 to explore how multiple motor proteins pull a single cargo in living cells. Prof. Macosko also partners with the lab of Profs. Keith Bonin and Martin Guthold to develop a new drug discovery platform and with Dr. A. Daniel Johnson of the Department of Biology to develop new teaching technologies. George Holzwarth, Research Professor George Holzwarth is a Research Professor in the Wake Forest Physics Department. Our lab is interested in 3 problems: 1) the load-dependence of molecular motors, especially kinesin-1, and how multiple motors cooperate or interfere with one another; 2) how cells move along two-dimensional surfaces; 3) how cells penetrate gels, layers of cells, and the extracellular matrix.. Using video microscopy of gfp-labelled peroxisomes, we record the thermally driven motions of vesicles in live cells. From the vesicle tracks, we extract intracellular mechanical properties such as the elastic and viscous shear moduli of the cytoplasm. These moduli are likely to play a role in the dynamics of cell deformation. A long-standing difficulty afflicting the analysis of particle tracks is their start-stop nature. We’ve been developing a hidden Markov, variational Bayes, Gaussian mixture model to objectively separate tracks into 2 or more states characterized by whether the vesicle is motor-driven or obeys the laws of diffusion. Amanda Smelser, PhD Candidate Amanda is a PhD candidate in biochemistry and a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow. She is interested in the mechanical properties of breast cancer cells and the influence of microenvironment stiffness gradients on their invasive potential. To determine the viscoelastic properties of normal and cancerous mammary epithelial cells, she tracked peroxisome motion in motor-inhibited and ATP-depleted cells. She is now developing 3D photoactivatable collagen environments with stiffness gradients for determining if normal and cancerous breast cells experience durotactic migration and localize to regions of specific stiffness. Amanda is also a fiddler in a bluegrass band from Walkertown, NC called The Grassifieds.

Denton and Reddish MP, Andrew Gwynne, has co-signed a letter to the Prime Minister expressing concern about the many Commonwealth-born, long-term British residents who have been incorrectly identified as illegal immigrants and calling on her to find a “swift resolution of this growing crisis”. Many long-term immigrants who arrived from the Commonwealth as children in the 1940s have been told they are here illegally; in response over 100 MPs have co-signed a letter to the PM asking her to do more. The letter was written by David Lammy MP, Chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Race and Community, and has been signed by Jeremy Corbyn, the Chair of the Home Affairs Select Committee, Yvette Copper MP, as well as the Conservative MPs Sarah Wollaston, Bob Blackman and Peter Bottomley. The letter urges the PM to find an “effective, humane route” to resolve an immigration anomaly that has caused “undue stress, anxiety and suffering” to many. Last week at a meeting of the Commonwealth heads of government Downing Street rejected a formal diplomatic request to discuss the immigration problems being experienced by some Windrush-generation British residents, rebuffing a request from the representatives of 12 Caribbean countries for a meeting with Theresa May. The refusal from Number 10 has had the effect that Caribbean diplomats have been left with the impression that the UK government is not taking a sufficiently serious approach to the problem that is affecting large numbers of long-term UK residents who came to Britain as children. Andrew Gwynne said: “The news that Windrush kids, who were educated, worked and lived in this country for over half a century, are finding it difficult to establish legal status is very serious. I find it staggering that it has taken a letter from over 140 MPs to force the Government to act. “I am although encouraged by the news emerging from Number 10 today that Theresa May has decided to climb down from her previous position and now wants to put things right – we will hold her to that.”

Since there are different other alternatives, this is an endlessly improved choice that taking a gander at by methods for the paper classifieds. An additional bit of leeway of using the net is that you land adrift far predominant photographs of the spot. Exactly when you have picked a few other options, there are express centers that you require to consider. Unquestionably the primary point to think about when examine for a fitting. For lease is the sum it costs. Your assurance will be perceived by the spending you set. The fundamental control you have is the proportion of cash you are anxious to pay month to month for the rental charge. Adjacent to the lease, consider various costs that require to be paid when you remain around there. If you are searching for something sensible, filter for a studio for lease. A little house supplies you a little assessed region, anyway it is extensively savvier appeared differently in relation to a one bed room place.

The Starr Arms Model 1863 Percussion “Army” Revolver was designed as a simplified and more robust version of their earlier Starr Model 1858 Double Action Revolver. The simplified action was also intended to be less expensive to produce and thus more cost effective, for the US Government to purchase. Like the earlier M1858 Double Action Army, the gun was a six shot, .44 caliber percussion revolver. However, the M1863 utilized a single action lock work, instead of the delicate and complicated double action lock of the M1858. The M1863 also had a longer barrel, measuring 8” in length. This was an increase of 2” over the earlier M1858. The production of the M1863 started at about serial number 23,000, continuing from the end of the production run of the earlier M1858 Double Action revolver. Some 32,000 of the “improved Army” revolvers were produced by the Starr Arms Company between the end of 1863 and the end of 1865. In September of 1863, Starr received a contract to deliver 25,000 of their Improved Army Revolvers at the rate of $12.00 each. The contract specified that 1,000 guns were to be delivered during the month of October (1863), with additional deliveries of 2,000 guns per month over the next twelve months until the contract was fulfilled. Starr delivered the first 1,000 of the Single Action M1863 revolvers in December of 1863 and a total of 24,002 over the twelve months of 1864. During the American Civil War, the M1863 Starr was issued to a number of US cavalry regiments, including the 1stColorado Cavalry, the 6th & 7th Michigan Cavalry and the 11th New York Cavalry, just to name a few. After the Civil War, the obsolete Starr revolvers of all patterns were returned to various US arsenals and remained in storage until they were eventually disposed of. The first major sale of Starr .44 revolvers was in October of 1865, when 99 of the revolvers were sold from the Watervliet Arsenal at the price of $5.00 each. Over the next 36 years Starr revolvers were sold from a number of US Arsenals. The largest single sale of .44 Starr revolvers took place in December of 1870, when the Austin Baldwin Company acquired 20,000 of the revolvers from the New York Arsenal, purchasing them for $8.00 each. The last major sale of .44 Starr revolvers occurred on June 19, 1901, when Francis Bannerman & Company purchased 7,537 of the revolvers from the New York Arsenal, paying between 2.13¢ and 27.55¢ each; a far cry from the original contract price of $12.00 for the single action guns, and $20.00 or more for the earlier double action revolvers. This is example of the Starr Model 1863 Single Action Army revolver is in FINE condition. The right side of the gun is crisply marked STARR’S PATENT JAN 15 1856 and the left side is marked STARR ARMS Co NEW.YORK. There are a variety US government sub-inspector marks crisply stamped on the frame, barrel, cylinder and trigger guard, primarily the capital letters C and M. The serial number of 39232 is present on the center of the frame below the loading level recess and on the cylinder. The serial number is also found in the frame cut out under the hammer. The revolver’s serial number suggest it was delivered at some time in 1864. The grip also retains two mostly legible inspection cartouches. The script letters GKC are present in an oval cartouche on the left side of the grip, with the script inspection LAB on the right side. The first inspection cartouche is that of George K. Charter, a civilian sub-inspector who not only inspected a large number of Starr revolvers, but also S. Norris & W.T. Clement contract Model 1861 Rifle Muskets and Ames swords. The “LAB” mark is one frequently found on Starr carbines and is the mark of arsenal sub-inspector L.A. Brown. Little is known about Brown, but as noted he inspected Starr carbines as well as handguns, particularly the earlier production Double Action Model 1858 revolvers. Charlie Pate’s survey of inspection marks and cartouches that is published in U.S. Military Arms Inspector Marks notes only one example in his survey of a Starr M1863 with the LAB cartouche, and also notes that the GKC inspection is not common on these revolver either and is usually encountered in the 37,XXX-39,XXX serial number range. The gun retains about 65%+ of its original blued finish, averaged overall. The .44 caliber, 8” round barrel retains most of its original blue, which has thinned and shows wear and loss but still covers most of the barrel. In addition to thinning, the blue does show some scattered minor scuffs and mars and some very lightly scattered flecks of surface oxidation; most notably on the left side of the barrel. The frame retains much of its original bright blued finish, with most of the loss due to flaking which is the reason that most Starr revolvers show significant finish loss. The cylinder retains only some scattered traces of its original bright blue, again the apparent victim of flaking. The exposed metal has developed and attractive smoothly oxidized brown patina. This same smooth oxidation is present on the frame of the revolver where the finish has flaked. The hammer retains about 30%+ of its case coloring, with some traces of vibrant color. Most of the hammer finish has faded and dulled to a darker, duller, mottled gray appearance with flecks of color. The loading lever retains only traces its original case coloring, with the majority of the lever faded to a smoky and mottled blue-gray patina. The metal of the gun is mostly smooth and free of any significant pitting but does show some scattered patches of very minor freckled surface oxidation as noted above and some minute areas of lightly scattered minor pinpricking. The gun remains in excellent mechanical condition and times, indexes and locks up perfectly. The cylinder retains all of its original cones (nipples) and they are very fine, crisp condition with no breaks or cracks. The bore is about FINE condition as well. It is nearly all partly bright with crisp rifling present and shows only some scattered areas of darker oxidation and some frosting in the grooves. The Colt style loading lever and catch work as they should, and the gun breaks down easily with the removal of the hinge locking screw at the upper rear of the righthand side of the frame. The one-piece walnut grip is in near FINE condition as well. There is a tiny chip missing on the lower leading, as well as some scattered dings, mars, impact marks, and the usual bumps and mars from service and use. The grip is solid and free of any breaks, cracks or repairs and has never been sanded. As noted, the grip retains two nice cartouches on the sides which show some wear from use, but remain mostly legible. Overall this is a very nice condition example of the Starr Model 1863 Single Action Army Revolver. The gun shows some real-world use but has clearly been well cared for and never abused during its service life. While high condition M1858 Starr double action revolvers are relatively common, the single action M1863s saw more service (both during the war and as post war surplus) and are difficult to find with any level of finish on them. This is particularly true of Starr revolvers which are well known for their finishes flaking off, even with limited carry and use. The Starr M1863 was the third most used handgun issued to the US cavalry during the war, and no display of Civil War era martial revolvers or cavalry arms is complete without one. This is a really fantastic, very crisp example that any serious collector would be proud to own and display.

Thinning hair and hair loss is always a confronting experience, but surgical treatment can feel like a big mission to take on too. Scalp micropigmentation is one alternative to hair transplant surgery that is becoming increasingly popular to address hair loss. Scalp micropigmentation provides a non-invasive and pain-free solution that doesn’t require the implantation of hair follicles. It’s quick, painless, and the results are immediate. Minimal time is required in the chair for the procedure. Patients who wear a hairpiece can benefit from this procedure, and it can also be done on facial hair such as eyebrows. This article explains the process of scalp micropigmentation, how it works and the results you can expect. What is scalp micropigmentation? Scalp micropigmentation (Direct MPG) is an innovative hair restoration method for hair loss and sparse hair. In Direct MPG (also known as Cosmetic Hair Follicle Replication), hair-like dots are created on the scalp to mimic the appearance of hair follicles. It’s not a tattoo, nor a form of cosmetic makeup. Patients are able to achieve the look they want generally in 1-2 sittings and enjoy immediate results. To achieve a thickening effect on your hair, scalp micropigmentation can be used in between current hairs to make the hair appear denser overall, or it can be used on a bald area to create a shaven look. It’s a semi-permanent treatment with results lasting 3-5 years. Micropigmentation: expected results The most natural-looking results are achieved by using ink that matches closely with your hair colour. When the technique is applied to a razor-shaven scalp, it will give the appearance of growing stubble. For those who micro-pigment in between current hair, it will give the appearance of having more hair follicles. Anyone dealing with androgenetic alopecia, whether male or female, can use the micro-pigmentation technique as a solution to hair loss. It provides a non-invasive and pain-free solution. Limits of micropigmentation The downside of micropigmentation is that the small dots that mimic hair follicles do just that – they only mimic hair follicles. With longer hair, micropigmentation won’t help with actual density, it just creates the appearance of it on the scalp. If you’re wanting to actually grow back thicker hair in the lengths, consider looking into hair loss medication or a hair transplant microsurgery. Sometimes the best results can be achieved by combining a couple of different treatments together, but the ideal solution will be different for everyone. If you’d like to speak to someone about your options, you can book an online or in-person consultation with one of our Hair Growth Specialists.

The new year is almost here, and with it comes Celebrity Big Brother, the first U.S. version of the CBS reality series to feature famous people. The season begins in February, but the network is already starting to tease it with a new TV commercial and several tweets from host Julie Chen. See the Full Schedule for Celebrity Big Brother>>> The TV commercial doesn’t offer any real details on how the two-and-a-half week season will work or which celebrities might show up, but it could still provide clues about what to expect (besides the unexpected). The add proudly celebrates “the craziest house on television” with three quick clips from Big Brother 19. There are fights (Mark vs. Josh), showmances (Cody and Jessica) and general silliness (Paul riding Jason like a bull). No Real Housewives on Celebrity Big Brother?>>> This could suggest that the tone for Celebrity Big Brother will be similar to the original, only now with famous people. I’m not sure if three weeks in the house is enough time for any celebrity showmances, but as we saw in season 19, relationships can be formed very quickly inside the house. Host Julie Chen, who will return to preside over the celebrities, has also started tweeting in anticipation of the event. In this promo poster she asks “…are you ready for it?” The photo features Julie holding an HoH key, the Power of Veto and a Houseguest key, which is used for nominations. While the season will be incredibly short, the fundamental structure of the game will remain the same. …are you ready for it? — Julie Chen (@JulieChen) December 22, 2017 Finally, in early December Julie tweeted a photo of herself getting ready for the new season. She’s relaxing in an HoH robe and used the hashtag #WinterIsComing. Clearly this is in reference to Celebrity Big Brother airing in the Winter, but could it also be a casting clue. Maybe the show will feature an actor from Game of Thrones (the HBO fantasy drama has had such a massive cast over the years that it wouldn’t be too hard to find someone). Before you laugh at that idea, you should know that in January 2017, the British version of Celebrity Big Brother featured Thrones alum James Cosmo, who played Lord Commander Jeor Mormont. So it’s not totally impossible Getting ready… #WinterIsComing — Julie Chen (@JulieChen) December 2, 2017 Are you excited for Celebrity Big Brother? Celebrity Big Brother Rumors: Who Might Be in the House?>>> Celebrity Big Brother premieres Wednesday, February 7 at 8/7c on CBS. For more CBB news, like BuddyTV’s Big Brother Facebook page.

The Human Company offer is based on fundamental values ​​such as innovation, quality, sustainability, familiarity and relevance of the territory. You can find all these values in our villages or hostels, city campsites or chic country resorts Investments The Group's desire to invest again in Italy, focusing on the enhancement of the environmental and social context and on the respect for the heritage and for the natural and landscape resources of the area, is the motivation behind new projects. Each Village will have its own unique character, able to embrace not only the strong identity of the surrounding area, but also the exclusive experiences offered. In this light, the Group's development plans are ambitious and focused on highly innovative projects: two new villages in Veneto, the largest in Europe located in Eraclea and the project for the conversion of an Enel thermoelectric power plant into a tourist resort in Porto Tolle, as well as the Sport Village project in Cavriglia, in the heart of Tuscany, a unique project in Italy linked to sports tourism and the acquisition of the Montescudaio Village, a facility on the Tuscan Coast. Eraclea Village With a total area of 250 hectars, Valle Ossi is an exceptional location of natural value. It can benefit from a strategic and privileged location: surrounded by the Laguna del Mort, River Piave estuary and the Eraclea Mare litorale, the area is the perfect location for the development of a tourism reality. The ambitious project presented by Human Company proposes the realisation of two distinct areas: the tourist-receptive area, designated to the realisation of an Open Air Village on a total surface of 95 hectares, and the naturalistic area, dedicated to the rural tourist and territorial park of Valle Ossi, whose main peculiarity will be to maintain the landscape features of the reclamation and to enhance the pinewood, the Laguna del Mort and the area of the natural rural park. With an overall extension of 95 hectares, the Open Air Village will represent the heart of the project. The Village will have a 5-star classification and will mainly aim to recover the existing building heritage, historical and cultural testimony of the area. The area dedicated to hospitality will include an allocation of about 3100 pitches, mainly for mobile homes. Citizens of Eraclea and tourists will have at their disposal a series of facilities included into the village, for a more complete offer and an extraordinary unique experience. An entire area will be dedicated to the dispersed hotel with dedicated facilities. Inside the Village, guests will have at their disposal a series of free facilities, including a system of multifunctional sports facilities and a huge water park of swimming pools and lagoons, able to meet the expectations of any type of tourist. Approximately 150 hectares of the total area will be dedicated to the Valle Ossi rural and territorial tourist park. The area will maintain the characteristics of the reclamation landscape for the enhancement of the pine forest and the Laguna del Mort. The 2 km pristine beach will make the tourist stay even more unforgettable. The Village mobility will be 100% green: a system of public or affiliated cycle paths of about 10 kilometers will allow access to the common property of the beach, the Laguna del Mort, the pine forest and the River Piave estuary. The eco-friendly footprint will also be visible in the presence of shuttles and trains, exclusively electric, for moving within the Village. Eraclea in numbers: • 250 Hectars total area • 94 Hectars of Open Air Village • 3.100 pitches designated for camper and mobile homes • Up to 14.000 visitors per day Porto Tolle Village DELTAFARM Project originates from the Futur-E program promoted by Enel. The program aims to convert 23 Italian thermoelectric power plants into innovative and eco sustainable places. Based on the circular economy model, the transformation of the site will provide a new opportunity for the local community: science, art, culture, tourism, research centre and new industrial activities will be developed and promoted. With an extension of 380 Hectars, the industrial site is located in a unique environmental context. Delta del Po area - appointed as UNESCO heritage - is a biosphere reserve of exceptional importance for biodiversity of the flora and fauna ecosystem. The conversion of the site will see the development of an innovative Open Air Village, a water sport centre and a research centre. The Open Air Village will rise on a total surface of 117 hectares and it will be an ideal location for those who want to live an experience able to combine the natural beauty of the area with a wide offer of complementary facilities. The sports centre will be a reference point for water sports and for various activities. Thanks to multifunction sports areas, it will be possible to practice different types of activities, such as tennis, soccer, surfing, swimming and rowing. Porto Tolle in numbers: • 380 Hectars total area • 117 Hectars of Open Air Village • 2.200 pitches designated for camper and mobile homes 20 hectares of wooded area • Up to 8.000 visitors per day Cavriglia Sport Village In the heart of Tuscany will arise the Sport Village, an Open Air Village entirely dedicated to professional and non-professional sport, and to maintaining the state of psycho-physical well-being of people. All this through the creation of extraordinary synergies with the surrounding territorial context. The project area will have a total extension of 152 hectares and will be divided into two main zones, both focused on sports and physical activity: a tourist area and an area dedicated to professional sports. The tourist area will have as main protagonist the Open Air Village. The village will be the reference point for the professional sports facilities’ visitors thanks to a complete range of services. The Sport Village offer will be extremely wide and designed to create a constant interaction between the guest and the surrounding area. In order to ensure optimal use of the sports facilities, these will be located in different areas of the Sport Village: an area entirely dedicated to high sport specialization - professional type - and an area adjacent to the Open Air Village, divided into water park and a space for free-use sports. Guests will also have the opportunity to use a nine-hole golf course and illuminated cycling circuits immersed in the surrounding natural area. The visitor who wishes to practice competitive sports will have at his disposal a six-lane indoor pool, an outdoor Olympic-size pool, a soccer / rugby field, tennis courts, 4 basketball courts, a 110- metres athletic track, an area dedicated to the long jump and a multipurpose Sport Arena. The tourist will also find a centre for sport research, orientation and medicine. The tourist will also have paddle, tennis, beach volley / tennis courts, a skate park, a bike centre and outdoor training areas. These services will be free and used for pure recreational pleasure. Cavriglia Sport Village in numbers: • 116 hectars total area • 26 hectars of Open Air Village • 40 hectars dedicated to sport activities • 1.200 pitches designated for mobile homes • Up to 6.000 visitors per day Montescudaio Village Starting from the summer of 2020 the Montescudaio Village, located in one of the most beautiful areas in Italy, will become part of the offer of open-air villages of the Group. With the Montescudaio Village, Human Company's open-air facilities have grown to nine, thus consolidating its leading position in Italy and strengthening its presence in Tuscany, where it currently has three sites: the Park Albatros Village along the Costa degli Etruschi (the Etruscan Coast) (LIVORNO), the Norcenni Girasole Village in Valdarno (FLORENCE) and the Florence Camping in Town at the gates of the Tuscan capital. Nestled in a 170,000 m² forest and about 4 km from the beach of Marina di Cecina, the new village will undergo an upgrade and renovation of its existing facilities. A new lagoon and a water slide will be added, overlooked by a new pool bar, and the supermarket will be complemented by a takeaway. Finally, on the housing unit side, new units will be introduced for the medium-high range Giotto Plus, Leonardo, Eden and Greeny, the new mobile homes built according to the principles of bio-architecture, to ensure maximum relaxation and well-being for all types of visitors. Montescudaio in numbers: • 17 hectares total area • 595 accommodation units • Up to 2,000 visitors per day Birkelt Village Summer 2020 brings with it the opening of the latest Human Company acquisition: Birkelt Village. In the heart of the Mullertahl valley, eastern Luxembourg, the Birkelt Village is settled in an ideal location a few kilometers from the town of Larochette, dominated by the imposing ruins of its 12th century castle. The village, which is expected to open in early April, has various types of accommodation, including luxury mobile homes and tent-camper-caravan pitches, as well as services and facilities with high quality standards, with particular attention to families with children. Birkelt Village is Human Company’s first open-air facility abroad and marks the Group's internationalization also in this sector (after PLUS hostels in Berlin and Prague).

‘One Time’ used a cautious approach despite dropping the 40 year-old Italian in the very first round, boxing beautifully to a shut-out win on all three cards 120-107. The crowd booed the lack of action from knockout artist Thurman, who may have been guilty of playing it too safe in controlling the fight from start to finish. Afterwards, Thurman called on Argentinian Marcos Maidana sitting at ringside to agree a future clash at the same venue. Also on the bil, former world champion Abner Mares shared five manic rounds with hardened Jose Ramirez before retiring the Mexican on his stool before the sixth session began. Advertisements Mares, 29, dropped the dogged Ramirez in the first, third and fifth rounds to eventually take the stoppage win and move to 28-1-1 in a highly entertaining match-up. Earlier, Jermall Charlo set-up a world title chance against IBF light-middleweight champion Cornelius Bundrage in 2015 with a dominant win over Lenny Bottai. The 24 year-old established his superiority from the off, catching Bottai at will to take the first two rounds comfortably, until a huge shot in the third round ended the bout. Bottai attempted to get to his feet, but was clearly out of it, and referee Jay Nady rightly waved the fight off just seconds before the corner threw in the towel.

To remove the buttons, carefully pry the tabs under the locks on the side with three tabs. Then the othe side can be wiggled off. I bought a spare just in case. So make sure if you're replacing the old one, you get one with the latch on it.

This question is asked whenever anyone is presented with vinyl flooring, but the truth is that there are two options on luxury vinyl flooring - also known as luxury vinyl tiles (LVT) - and they are a choice between glue-down tiles or click-together planks. Whilst both are waterproof and offer similar attributes when it comes to satisfaction, they have different requirements when fitting to the floor. Depending on the subfloor, one may be better suited than the other so it's important to consider that. Glue Down There are a few requirements and measures that need to be taken before installing the glue-down method. Having the benefit of being a cost-effective alternative to clicking together planks, you will need to make certain that the existing subfloor is all flat. You may end up requiring a professional to install this method which would require more spending. However, if the room is a high-traffic area such as a kitchen it is considered a much more suitable option. An adhesive will be required to provide the flooring with its stability and keep its natural appearance, making sure that furniture will not leave a heavy indent. Adhesive choices depend on the room you choose, as some areas will require additional consideration. Click Together This is a preferred option for those wanting a no-fuss installation and can be done by those inexperienced with flooring with ease. Without the need for adhesives, panels such as Invictus flooring require no tools and can be simply put in place. As this is slightly more expensive than a glue-down choice, you save money on not requiring a professional installer due to its relative ease. Being the preferred choice in vinyl flooring and retaining its popularity is down to its simple installation as it is its moisture resistance - along with its easy-clean design. As a weekend DIY project anyone can do and not require the cost of the extra adhesive to make the flooring stay in place, the click design has been the choice for many households and commercial properties. Which Is Better As with any choice, it's important to view the pros and cons of each product. Whilst both provide more scratch resistance than real hardwood, vinyl can scratch from heavier and sharper objects. However, sections are easy to replace which makes it a cost-effective option and it can be avoided by fitting felt pads to furniture feet. If temperatures in the room fluctuate then the glue down vinyl flooring method is a preferred option as the adhesive will prevent the flooring from expanding and rising over time. This is not an issue for plank flooring in a temperature-controlled room. Click-together vinyl allows for an underlay to be fitted underneath giving a more comfortable option than glue down. As a perfect partner for underfloor heating systems, both methods offer year-round comfort and cosiness. With vinyl flooring, you certainly have a great quality product no matter your installation method, and with a warranty that tends to last upwards of 20 years, it will certainly provide the lasting look you are looking for.

Maryland-based The High and Wides are a string band with a sound unto themselves. They draw on a wealth of experience playing straight-ahead bluegrass music together, but flout genre conventions while chasing its wild “hillbilly music” roots and assimilating influence from new-wave, rockabilly, and experimental music. Their 2018 debut album, “Lifted”, reached #10 on Billboard’s bluegrass chart and was called “quietly revolutionary” in No Depression and “stunning” in Bluegrass Today.

Removing the entire contents of our bedroom so the floors could be sanded and sealed. Time to sand: First coat completed: Floors are done. Last night N put primer on all the walls.

A common accusation against online poker is that players are manipulating the game’s randomness. This practice can favor house employees, “bots,” and multiple players. The rationale for such behavior is to increase bets and prevent discouragement to new players, but it is both unnecessary and foolish. Attempts at manipulative dealing could be caught by third parties, because such software is not in the public domain. But in some cases, these claims are not substantiated. One such website is an Indonesian-based poker site. It offers both foreign currency and uang asli, a popular method of depositing funds on online poker sites. In addition to offering players the option of depositing in uang asli, this site also features live chat and whatsapp 24 hours a day. It has also won numerous awards for its online poker software. The game of blackjack requires a basic strategy. In blackjack, the goal is to reach a total of 21. However, if you are lucky, you can win if your first bet is higher than your previous one. If you hit the latter, you’ll get a blackjack, which is the same as getting a 10. If you’re planning to play poker on IDNPoker, you’ll want to be careful about payment transactions. The site requires you to provide banking information from a bank you are eligible to use, and you can’t use a VPN to enter from a western country. But if you’re willing to go through the hassle of VPNing into IDNPoker, it’s well worth it. The poker site offers plenty of payment options, including Skrill and Neteller. If you want to learn more about online poker, IDN poker is a great place to start. Not only will it help you learn more about poker, but you can play whenever you want – at any time of the day or night. There’s a game out there that’s right for you! IDN Poker is Indonesia’s best online poker site. With so many choices, you’ll be able to find the perfect poker game for you. One of the most popular games on the internet is texas poker. You’ll need at least two players and up to nine players in order to play. Each player gets two kartu to play. They’ll combine them at the meja permainan. If they combine their kartu, they’ll be considered pemenang. In this way, they’ll earn the highest payouts. If they can combine all of their kartu, it’s a royal flush, or straight flush.

CAIRO, Nov. 2 / Tass /. The victims of an attack on Egypt on the Coptic bus (Egyptian Christians) attacked seven people and the same number was injured. This is reported in the electronic version of the Al-Ahram newspaper, referring to an official source in the Ministry of Interior of the Republic. As indicated earlier, a group of armed men opened fire on a minibus with Christians near the Sacred Monastery of Egypt, Egypt's El Minya province. It is known that the convoy had three buses, one of them hit. The soldiers arrived in an SUV, blocked the road and opened fire. Among the dead – three children. Christians were sent to pilgrimage to Sohag (Upper Egypt) when the terrorists were shocked. The drivers of the two cars, after hearing the shooting, managed to extract them from the bomb and the escape. Meanwhile, according to the sources of security forces Al-Ahram refers to, the monastery's main road is now closed for security reasons. For this reason, the Kopts used unprotected bypass roads, one of which was attacked. According to the Ministry of the Interior, on-site investigators are already working on getting to know the circumstances of the case. The task force created by the head of the department head is looking for attackers. The information portal, Copts United, referring to the congregation's representatives, previously informed that 10 people were victims of this attack. After the incident, the Coptic Church has already called on Christians to carry out the trip to the remote monasteries, many of them in Egypt. Terrorist attacks against Christians In May 2017, in the same area, a militant group launched an armed attack on the Copts busses when they went to St. Sámuel Monastery. Then about 30 people were killed, including young children, dozens of wounded. In April of the same year, in the Egyptian Christian churches where celebrations of palm trees (Palm) were held on Sunday, significant terrorist attacks were committed. First, in Tirana, 60 km north of Cairo, a suicide bombing explosive was launched at the Anglican cathedral in Mar-Girgis (St. George). When all public attention was focused on the events of the city, a second explosion plummeted near St. Mark's Cathedral (Mar-Marcus) in Alexandria. The bomber trying to get in was stopped by the police to check with the metal detector, and a few seconds later he was only two feet from two police officers. A total of 45 people died that day and more than one hundred wounded. Following the terrorist attacks in the country, an emergency situation has been introduced by President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, which is still in force every three months. The country's president, who is currently attending the 2nd World Youth Forum in Sharm el-Sheikh on November 3-6, expressed his condolences to the victims' families. "I condemn the martyrs who have fallen in the hands of traitors, who undermine the solidarity of our country," said the president. does not affect our nation's desire to continue fighting for survival and creation.

The Ray Green Speaking competition is held each year for Year 11 & 12 students to speak on a specific topic. This year the prompt was “Caught in the crossfire” and we were blown away by the depth and passion of the speeches given by five of our brave students. Ray Green attended The Friends’ School from 1925 to 1934 and was an active member of the Friends’ community. Ray keenly participated in the School Lecturette Competition and the Annual Literary society Competitions each year. Ray died in 1943 in a flying accident and, as a result, his parents established the Ray Green Memorial Prize for students who excelled in public speaking. Left to Right: Andrew Gibson, Khushi Bhugwanadin, Hugh Magnus, Riley Curtain, Zoe Adams, Anna Reynolds and Darcy Webster-Jones. This year we had five gifted students participate in the competition, each with their own perspective on the phrase “Caught in the Crossfire”. Khushi Bhugwanadin gave a thoughtful speech about Freedom Fighters being “caught in the crossfire” or perhaps even catching others in their crossfire. Darcy Webster-Jones spoke beautifully about divorce and how it catches children and innocent bystanders in the cross fire and offered some advice around being mindful of others in these situations. Hugh Magnus spoke passionately, relating being caught in the crossfire to being without agency, discussing this concept in relation to Australia’s first nations peoples. Runner-up Zoe Adams discussed victims of many different types of conflicts, from global conflict right down to local, personal conflicts. Finally, our winner, Head Boy Riley Curtain, explored the phrase “Caught in the crossfire” and how it is often used (particularly in the media) to take focus away from the perpetrators of crime and violent acts. Riley’s speech was powerfully delivered and well-reasoned. Thank you to our judges, Andrew Gibson and Anna Reynolds who had the difficult task of picking a winner and runner-up out of this amazing set of speeches. Well done to all of our speakers for the 2021 Ray Green Speaking Competition. It can be very daunting to get up in front of a large group of your peers to speak, especially on such a broad and intricate topic.

The jawbreaker is a show-stealer in the world of candy. From its kinda scary sounding name to its trademark white candy coat and festive rainbow paint splatters, you can't miss these spherical sweets anytime you walk into a candy store. You get the feeling they've been around forever, and yet, it's hard to pin down exactly when jawbreakers made their entrance onto the sweets scene. Some believe that jawbreakers are descendants of the sugar plum, which is a hard-coated candy that has been around since the 1600s. What we do know is that Salvatore Ferrara, an Italian baker that immigrated to Illinois, Chicago, in 1919, is the one who popularized jawbreakers in the States. Since then, the Ferrara Pan Candy Company has grown and merged to become the big candy company we know today: the Ferrara Candy Company. You may know jawbreakers by another name: gobstoppers. That's the term used in the UK for these hard-shelled sweets. Relatedly, the name "Everlasting Gobstoppers" comes from British author Roald Dahl's 1964 novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, where he envisions a gobstopper that never grows smaller and lasts forever, changing colors and flavor like magic. Even if they're not really everlasting, jawbreakers do last a long time and change colors and flavors in real life thanks to a high-tech process that can take close to a month to complete. Here at Mashed, we've got all the sweet details for you to munch on. Jawbreakers start with the hard candy center Facebook Though these candies seem to last forever (hence the description "everlasting"), you probably remember getting to the sweet, sour center of a jawbreaker and feeling that sense of accomplishment of a job well done. For classic jawbreakers, that hard candy center is where candymakers start their work. Weighted tumble blocks are placed into an industrial-sized panner. The tumble blocks are necessary for crushing and mixing the candy center ingredients together into a fine powder. Dextrose, powdered coloring, flavoring, and fruit acids are added to the panner along with the blocks. After the tumble blocks and panner work their magic for about ten minutes, the powdery mixture gets transferred to a custom pill-press device. There, a high-powered piston molds it into the round tangy candy center we all know and love. Can you believe how much work goes into just a small part of our beloved jawbreakers? That's just the beginning. Bubblegum centers are also popular in jawbreakers Facebook Before we get to the color-changing layers, we can't forget the lengthy process that goes into making another popular kind of jawbreaker: the ones with chewy, gooey bubble-gum centers. Bubble gum centers require a different process in the beginning, though the layering process is the same as with hard-centered jawbreakers. Candymakers blend synthetic rubbers with powdered resin to dissolve the rubber. Then, thickeners and preservatives are added. After a four-hour steaming and mixing process, the mixture is placed into trays for cooling. The batter cools for 24 hours, and then corn syrup is added for softness and sweetness. Finally, sugars and flavors are added to the gum as well as icing sugar, which makes the gum easier to chew. Several machines are used to slice and shape the gum into ball centers for jawbreakers. Once these gumballs are cool, they're ready for building on layers to create a jawbreaker. Layers upon layers are added to jawbreakers Facebook What about all those layers and layers of flavor and color that make your tongue change color? That's the best part, in our opinion. Being rude and sticking your tongue out at people is so much more fun when the insides of your mouth are a lurid shade of blue. Those layers are actually the most time-consuming part of the jawbreaker-making process. Once the hard candy centers are finished, they're taken to a very loud "engrossing" room, where multiple layers of flavoring and colors are added to the candy. The candies are spun in rotating panners (that's the loud part) while the syrup is added. Next, more dextrose powder is added to help build up layers. Then come multiple stages of flavored coloring, like cherry, lime, lemon, and blueberry. Each layer makes up one of those colors that make your tongue look like you're from another planet. Each layer must have two hours to set before another layer can be added, so you can imagine how long it takes to make these color-morphing candies. The coating increases the size of the candies into the big jawbreakers we're used to seeing and chomping on. It can actually take more than three weeks to make a jawbreaker Instagram We call them Everlasting Gobstoppers across the pond, but they're not just everlasting to eat. The process can seem everlasting when it comes to making these colorful sweets too. While some jawbreaker candies take a few days to make, other versions can take more than three weeks to complete! Take, for example, the Jaw Busters brand of jawbreakers. The company starts with a tiny, single granule of sugar and adds liquid sugar to build it up to half the size of a Jaw Buster. Just creating this sugary center takes about 21 days. The company then follows up with colors and flavoring in a traditional jawbreaker layering process. If you've had Jaw Busters before, you'd know these aren't even the biggest jawbreakers around. Can you imagine how long it would take to make those HUGE jawbreakers you see in candy stores? Finishing touches for that classic jawbreaker look Facebook We know it's a classic jawbreaker the second we see that classic white coating and rainbow paint splatter. Some think that the origin of the white coating came from Ferrara's original product, an Italian treat called Confetti or Jordan Almonds. It's a sugar-coated almond candy, traditionally with a white candy shell. Confetti Almonds also come in a colorful candy coat, which may have inspired the confetti-like paint splatters we see on jawbreakers today. Confetti Almonds are also made with a panning process, which might have led Ferrara toward developing a method for making jawbreakers. Today, that method is done on a large scale in industrial-sized panners. Once all flavored coloring has been added to the candies, two more layers of white coating are added to the candy. A glaze is poured onto the candies to seal in all the layers. Finally, candy makers use spray bottles of coloring on the candy while the panning machine rotates to ensure an overall paint splatter effect. How were jawbreakers made early on? Instagram Obviously, we've made leaps and bounds when it comes to candy-making technology, especially with the help of industrial-strength machinery and AI functionalities to ensure controlled processes. While we don't know for sure when jawbreakers were invented, we do know the older methods of making similar coated candies was much more labor-intensive. Early coating pans were just kettles suspended on a chain that a person had to manually swing over an open fire. Candy making advanced somewhat in the early 1800s when pans fitted with shafts were invented. However, these pans still had to be manually turned during the coating process. In 1860, the Industrial Era enabled the manufacturing of industrial pans and introduced panning techniques that candy makers still use today for coated candy. Today, we have updated versions of industrial pans that are automated and capable of making large batches of jawbreakers at a time. Is there a way to make jawbreakers at home? Instagram Is there a way to make jawbreakers in your own kitchen? You may not have industrial panners and pill presses at home, so mass-producing these candies at home might not be feasible. Sorry, Ferrara wannabes. But it is possible to make just one giant colorful jawbreaker at home for the heck of it. Sure, if you've got tons of sugar, patience, and a lot of time on your hands. You'll start with six cups of sugar, which is only half of how much you'll need to complete the job. You'll melt it in water and corn syrup and add food coloring. Once your candy thermometer gets to 300 degrees Fahrenheit, you'll pour the very hot mixture into a round hemisphere pan. Then repeat to make the other half. It takes several hours for these candies to cool and harden. Once that's done, you add some more liquid candy to stick the two halves together. Lay out some newspaper and use a toothbrush or paintbrush dipped in food coloring to get that class paint splatter effect. Now you're out of sugar, but you have a giant candy to impress your friends with! Variations in jawbreakers Facebook Bruisers look just like classic jawbreakers, with white coating and paint splatter designs, except they're humongous. Bigger than your average golf ball, they measure up to over three inches in diameter! These overgrown sweets are impossible to wrap your jaw around, so your best bet is to lick or bite gently at them until they diminish in size. Before you start eating a Bruiser though, make sure you've set aside plenty of time and energy. The standing official world record for the time it takes to eat a Mega Bruiser Jawbreaker is 17 days, four hours, eight minutes, and 19 seconds! You might want to have a plastic sandwich bag handy to keep your jawbreaker in so you can save your work. Another variation of the jawbreaker is the popular Atomic Fireball. Ferrara describes these as a "spicy hot ball of sweet burning cinnamony deliciousness." These fiery candies are a bright red color to match the spicy taste. Since candies like these are meant to last a long time, we recommend that only spicy food lovers try these flaming fireballs of sweetness. Exploding jawbreakers? Twitter Jawbreakers have been around so long that myths and stories about them abound. You may have heard the same urban legend we came across, which is that some jawbreakers have exploded and injured people before. Unfortunately, this is one urban legend that turned out to be true, as shown by an episode of Discovery's Myth Busters show. Police records confirm that a jawbreaker exploded when a young child took just one lick at the candy after microwaving it. Another nine-year-old's jawbreaker exploded when she licked the candy, which left severe, painful burns on her face and arms. These were found later on to be chemical burns. The hosts of Myth Busters decided to look into what conditions caused these jawbreaker explosions. They confirmed that the combined effect of the candy left in its plastic packaging and left out in the sun or under any other radiant heat source (they used a conventional toaster oven) resulted in a hard shell with molten candy insides. We aren't sure why licking the candy caused the explosion for these kids, but we're definitely going to avoid microwaving or leaving these candies out in the sun. Jawbreakers on film Instagram Like everyone else, we love anything related to the '90s: the fashion, the music, the movies! Clueless is a popular throwback, but have you heard of its darker, campier cousin, Jawbreaker? Starring '90s goth queen Rose McGowan, this black comedy is often compared to other famous movies, such as Heathers and Mean Girls. In the movie, a group of well-dressed, popular girls always celebrate each other's birthdays with a frightening prank. The prank takes a fatal turn on their ringleader's birthday when they gag her with a giant jawbreaker that ends up choking her to death. The rest of the movie involves the gang trying to cover up their accident in a web of blackmail, deceit, and of course, head-to-toe makeovers. Though this movie wasn't loved by critics when it came out, it has since become a cult classic and an important remnant of '90s-era retro aesthetics. The literally killer story remains a source of inspiration for costume designers and moviemakers alike. In fact, the slowed-down hallway walk from Mean Girls bears a striking resemblance to the scene in Jawbreaker. And, of course, this story gives the jawbreaker even more notorious cult status as an edgy and decorative candy for the ages.

Talowa was born from the desire of two young, passionate and committed African women, Manolli Ekra and Sarah Ferdjani. One, an urban planning consultant and an international development expert, while the other an urban nomad and creative consultant. Their fist encounter was in Niamey, West Africa, where they both worked in the International Humanitarian sector. Their common passion for natural cosmetics, aromatherapy and the development of the continent’s human and material potential gave life to the great, social entrepreneurship project called TALOWA, a socially engaged Beauty retail. At a time when the demand for beauty is pushing to it’s extremes (skin bleaching, excess use of heat or damaging hair styling and slowly weakening hair shafts), we felt compelled to help young women, in particular, black African women, to re-learn not only to love themselves but also to maintain what they are endowed with: beautiful hair (natural or straightened) and a bright, natural skin. The Talowa line is inspired by recipes and beauty secrets of grandmothers, studied and customized with a little kick to match our modern lifestyle.

A colorado llc name search will tell you whether your chosen name is available. You should check for standards and restrictions as well to make sure the name is unique and not taken by another company. The best way to choose a name for your company is to avoid being one of the many companies with the same name as yours. Performing an llc name search is important if you want to protect your business’s reputation and success. Colorado LLC Name Search Choosing a company name for your limited liability company Choosing a company name is one of the most important aspects of setting up your new business. It will help you stand out in your industry, attract customers, and tell people what you offer. llc registration is an exciting milestone for any entrepreneur. However, it is equally important to choose the name wisely because it will influence your company’s marketing identity. Choosing an eye-catching and creative name will help you promote your business and get customers to notice it. The most important thing to remember while choosing an llc name is that it should be memorable. You should be able to quickly recall the name of your business once you say it. Also, make sure the name sounds smooth when spoken aloud. Although these are not the most important aspects, they are nevertheless crucial. Listed below are some guidelines to keep in mind when choosing a company name. If you have any questions, make sure you seek professional help from an attorney. If your company is a limited liability company, it must have a name that says “limited liability company.” This means that the name cannot contain any words that refer to another type of business. For example, it cannot contain the word “incorporated.” The company name should be descriptive of the products and services you will be providing. Choosing a name is a fun and exciting part of starting a business. An impressive company name will help create a positive impression among potential customers and help you stand out from the competition. Another important consideration when choosing a company name is whether the name is available in your state. In many states, companies can only have one legal name. However, in other states, you can have more than one. In some states, variations are allowed as long as they are not already registered by another company. A name should be unique and distinctive enough to differentiate it from another. If you aren’t sure, make sure you check with the state’s office to ensure that the name you chose is not taken by another company. A good name for your LLC is essential to your business’s success. It can save you from lawsuits and build trust with your consumers. It can also set you apart from your competitors. If you’re not sure about the name for your company, Incfile offers guidance for the process and ensures that you are legally compliant. It costs $0 to use Incfile to form an LLC. Paul is a freelance writer and a small business owner. He enjoys hockey, Earl Grey tea, the mountains, and dogs. While the name for your limited liability company should be easy to pronounce and memorable, you should also consider trademarks before settling on a particular name. Remember, it’s important to choose a name that has no other registered trademarks in your state. Choosing a company name that is similar to a trademark can result in a trademark infringement lawsuit, so it’s critical to do some research. Performing a business name search to make sure the name hasn’t been taken by another business Performing a business name search to make certain the name you’re thinking about hasn’t already been used by another business is a necessary step before you open your doors. You can do this by searching the Internet for the name you’ve chosen and see whether it’s available for purchase. Before you even start the search, you should read possible names out loud to determine if they’re easy to say and if they have trademarks on them. While a general Internet search can help you determine whether a certain business is already using your company name, a proper business name search will reveal any common law trademark rights, registered domain names, and social networking profiles. This can complicate your marketing efforts. It’s better to avoid this situation if you can, so a proper business name search can save you time and money. Once you’ve determined that your chosen name is available, you can perform a business name search to make sure it hasn’t been taken by a competitor. Most states have an official business name availability search tool, which is run by the state agency in charge of business filings. Depending on where you’re based, this search will include state and local databases. Before you decide to use your business name, you should check the database for trademarks in your state. Other states will have databases as well. A business that uses a similar name or one that’s similar to another company’s name will be held liable for trademark infringement. This could lead to a lawsuit and forcing you to change your business name or pay damages. Therefore, before you register a business name, you should perform a business name search to ensure the name is unique and hasn’t already been taken by another business. If you’re planning to start a business in Illinois, you should first perform a business name search through the state’s eCorp page to ensure that your chosen name hasn’t already been registered. A business name search can be expensive, but it’s worth it if your business name is unique and has no competitors. It may even be available if no other business has used it before you do. Before performing a more detailed business name search, you can perform a quick screening search through an online business name search engine. This type of search is inexpensive and will tell you if a desired business name is in use elsewhere. The quick screening search will also tell you whether your desired business name is available in another country. If it has, you’ll need to conduct a more detailed business name search. Using the Business Database to find out if a name is available If you’re considering creating a colorado llc, there are several things you need to know before you can file for it. One important piece of information is the name of the entity. Although the name of a company is the most commonly used method of searching, you can also search for a business by ID or Document Number. When searching for a business name, use as many keywords as you can. Using the Business Database will return any results that match your keywords. The Colorado Secretary of State’s Website offers an online tool that can help you search for business names. You can use the business name search tool to determine if the name you’ve selected is available. All you need to do is enter your business name, ID number, or document number, as well as any trademark or trade name. Alternatively, you can use Social Searcher, which lets you search for businesses by their trademark or trade name. The Business Database contains millions of business names and the identifiers they include. You can use the Business Database to find out if a colorado llc name is available or similar to it. Once you find a name that matches your criteria, click the search button to see a list of the entities that have that name. If your search returns more than twenty results, you may need to narrow down your search by submitting your search in the advanced tab. Once you’ve decided on a name, you can search it in a number of different business databases. Using the Business Database to find out if a colorado llc name is available is an easy and convenient way to check for availability. Namecheckr searches several major sites at once, which means you can find out if a name is already in use. Alternatively, you can also search for business names by filing a Statement of Reservation of LLC Name through the Secretary of State’s website. This form allows you to search the business database for available names and allows you up to 120 days to use the name after the reservation has been filed. You’ll need to pay a fee of $25 to reserve a business name. A business name must be unique and represent the products or services you’re selling. Additionally, it must be unique and distinct from other businesses. Using definite articles, symbols, fonts, and abbreviations won’t make your business name unique. Avoid choosing names that are confusable or similar to another business name. If the name you’re looking for isn’t available, you may want to look into trademarking it.

Russia’s leading truck maker KamAZ intends to boost exports to 25 percent of output and return soon to pre-crisis level of overseas sales, KamAZ said on Thursday. The company intends to boost exports by increasing truck supplies to Kazakhstan, which it views as a priority sales market. “The strong demand for KamAZ vehicles among Kazakh consumers is explained by several factors. First of all, Kazakhstan is a country rich in natural resources, with large oil, gas and uranium deposits while KamAZ offers a wide range of specialized vehicles for operation in the oil and gas extracting industry,” KamAZ said. “Secondly, the Kazakh economy is developing intensively on the back of foreign investment, which has contributed to the growth of construction. Also, a modern highway will run from China to Western Europe and KamAZ trucks are actively used in its construction,” the company said.

This mixed media painting - Be Kind. Our Choices Affect Many Generations.- was a response to a poem by the lovely poet Molly Middleton Meyer called Into The Rain. It is about a strong woman who refused to let a horrible injustice bring her down. I love experimenting with pastels & acrylic on canvas to achieve this soft, grainy texture. When I was little, my grandfather would take me to a park that had a winding creek throughout. When the water was low, you really got a sense of the power it had to carve out these towering banks – some hanging in a sort of gravity defying hook jutting out over the water. We looked for wildlife – although hoping to see muskrats, turtles and frogs, it was a thrill to see a snake or two slither into the water as we surprised them and so rudely interrupted their sunbathing. I remember the anticipation of what we might see around the next bend, his repertoire of bird calls and the songs we would sing along the way. Kicking aside horse-apples as we strolled along, he would explain that the water might look smooth on the surface, but could be churning underneath – sometimes life is like that. I have always loved Bettas or Chinese Fighting Fish. There are many types and colors of Bettas. This was my Betta, Jewel. He was a vibrant violet specimen and lived almost 3 years! I don't know why I didn't take more pictures, but I did get a few blurry ones with my cel phone and was able to paint this portrait of him and his favorite bowl decoration - the pink high heel. I had the most fun incorporating the clay pieces, making the mosaic on his body and dyeing the fabric for his fins. Addison's Debut is a portrait of a generous and talented photographer who I met while belly-dancing. He is so kind to take & post pictures of dance performances. I also enjoy photographing dancers & musicians - usually for reference to paint at a later time, and one time I happened to be in the audience when he had his drumming debut! What struck me the most about his performance was his sweet smile and colorful attire. He was wonderful! I had to paint this! This mixed media painting has Graphite, Sharpie, Acrylic & Pastel. This mixed media painting celebrates the curves of a woman. Having made a few belly-dance costumes myself, I wanted to emphasize the complexity with crochet, sculpture and jewelry design incorporating natural stones, glass, fiber, clay, metal, beaded trim & shells on top of the Acrylic Paint. This mixed media painting is of a beautiful winged dancer. Her silver & gold metallic wings glowed with the stage lights in almost every color of the rainbow. I tried to capture the movement in the fabric, the highlights, shadows and hints of magenta & violet. This dancer's momentary downward glance was so stunning to me. The softness of her smile, the magnificent profile of her headdress...it was this moment of vulnerability, humility or reflection in this gorgeous dancer's thrilling tribal dance that captured me. Every time I looked at the photo of her I knew I had to paint it and share her beauty. Does she know how beautiful she is? A small detail painting from a fountain at the Heard-Craig House's Tea Garden. This mixed media painting is a combination of Pastels & Acrylic on canvas. I started the sketch for this piece at an En Plein Air Workshop with a marvelous painter, Rusty Jones, in the Tea Garden that afternoon. A few years ago, I felt as if God was telling me to use everything I had learned over the years in my art work, which resulted in some of my favorite pieces - like this mixed media piece that has Acrylic Paint, Polymer Clay, Paper, and Fiber galore.

The cable came off one of the pullies and the garage door closed crooked and wouldn't open, leaving me stranded with two cars inside. I called Mega and Steve was at the house within 45 minutes. He quickly assessed the problem- it is a 40 year old heavy wooden double door and original track and springs and it wasn't properly aligned. He got it back into alignment and got the cable back in place, and he adjusted the automatic garage door opener so it was working properly. Excellent service by Steve, and very fast response in an emergency situation. I will definitely use Mega again in the future.

Avant-pop songstress NAVA released her latest single, ‘Gaz’ on the 22nd of April via Oyez! The song was produced by 555n (an AI art, sound art and music production project created by artist and composer Gadi Sassoon) and mastered by Alex Trecarichi at Monodynamic Studio in Milan, and follows the release of her previous single, ‘Senti’. The singer has earned support from around the world with publications such as i-D Italy, FLAUNT Magazine, The Line Of Best Fit, CLASH Magazine, Kaltblut, Rolling Stone Italy, Metal Magazine, EARMILK, Il Fatto Quotidiano, and RockIt amongst others as well as airplay from BBC Radio 6 Recommends and Tom Ravenscroft, BBC Lancashire’s On The Wire Show, BBC Merseyside, Worldwide FM, The Wire’s Rewired Show on NTS Radio and KEXP to name but a few. Tehran-born and Milan-based, this year marks a new era for Nava Golchini as she approaches her creativity with a different perspective – learning to balance her Persian and Italian sides. As she embarks on this adventure, NAVA finds inspiration in the works of Sevdaliza, Sega Bodega, Arca and Rosalìa while her own sound can draw parallels to the stylish works of Arca, Grimes and MØ. Futuristic elements meld into the world of pop as we’re introduced to NAVA’s latest enticing single. Telling the tale of a menacing siren calling to her prey, ‘Gaz’ manages to combine mysticism with a forceful, in-your-face attitude highlighted by glitching basslines and sultry vocals. Speaking of the single, NAVA tells us: “With Gaz I was able to explore my Persian roots on a whole new level. It’s so strange because when we were in the studio the first time working on the track, the beat we started from had quite a Persian flair to it. I was quite surprised because when I was jotting down the melody for the chorus, only Persian words or idioms came to me! And like always, I let the creative process flow because it’s the most honest.”

After 2021’s financially successful release of Mass Effect Legendary Edition, and recent announcements of another entry in this video game franchise, it’s interesting to consider this franchise as an innovation strategy example: how it became as popular and lucrative as it is. While any number of reasons might explain why each subsequent entry in this franchise sold better than the last, it’s no doubt partly because of the simple but effective innovation strategy Bioware used to design each subsequent game in this franchise. Innovation Strategy Example: Feedback-Based Development The developer of the Mass Effect franchise, Bioware, intentionally designed each Mass Effect game in response to criticism of the last one. In a video interview by Game Informer the director of the first three games in the franchise, Casey Hudson, described this process in detail. To summarize, for months after each game’s release, Bioware would collect negative and positive feedback from reviews, forums, youtube, etc. Then, they would sort the feedback into a document and organize it into a prioritized list of categories with potential fixes or changes. This document would provide a blueprint for the next game. For example, when Bioware was collecting feedback about Mass Effect 1, Hudson notes the list had a whopping 48 categories of feedback, with each category itself containing multiple suggested changes. In short, when designing sequels to its games, Bioware would collect feedback, organize it into categories with subgroups, and prioritize which feedback and changes seemed most important. This example of a strategy for innovation is simple and effective, but it does come with risks. #1 Risk of This Innovation Strategy Example Perhaps the most obvious risk with the way Bioware innovated the design of its games is that it is by no means self-evident which feedback should be listened to and responded to. This isn’t a problem unique to game design. Responding to feedback is a necessary step when innovating or creating anything new: to be successful, product innovators need to respond to consumer needs. How to Balance the “Customer is Always Right” with Good Design In this regard, it’s helpful to consider what Mark Brown, the video essayist behind Game Maker’s Toolkit, has suggested are relevant principles when responding to player feedback. Don’t listen to a vocal minority: use data to confirm, clarify, and contest player feedback. Identify problems, not solutions: use feedback to generate questions to diagnose issues. Don’t let changes create a boring game: trying to please everyone dissatisfies everyone. In other words, it’s unwise to assume that seemingly popular feedback about proposed changes is as popular as you think, or would actually solve the problems it proposes it would. For, in truth, negative feedback only directly suggests where people experience frustration, not what causes it. It is rarely (if ever) the case that a proposed solution accurately diagnoses the core problems. Innovation Strategy Example: Changes Over Time The Mass Effect franchise provides a clear example of what happens when this innovation strategy misuses feedback. For example, it’s well known that Mass Effect 1 received lots of negative feedback about how it organized its armor, weapons and customization items. Bioware’s response in Mass Effect 2 was to cut down the amount of weapons, armor, and customization items, which disappointed many reviewers on release. As a result, Mass Effect 3 reintroduced the options Mass Effect 2 cut, but with a different UI system than Mass Effect 1. That solved the real problem: the unwieldy item interface in Mass Effect 1. In short, while Bioware has been successful with innovating based on feedback, it too has made mistakes. Ultimately, if you want to innovate a better thing, you have no real choice but to listen to feedback. But you need to be careful not to let that feedback make your product worse. People don’t always know what they need, but feedback remains key to diagnosing their problems.
