We have developed over the years key partnerships with the largest container leasing companies in the world that provide us with unparalleled global access to tens of thousands of used intermodal cargo containers every day. When these companies containers are no longer utilized within their fleet, they are retired from maritime service and become available for sale. Most of these retired containers are 20-foot dry, 40-foot dry, and 40-foot-highcube units, but specialized containers such as reefers, open tops, and flat racks are regularly available for purchase.
We concentrate on fleets that offer quality products maintained at a much higher standard than that which is usually available in the marketplace. Its our standard to sell “cargo worthy” condition or better and require our depot network to have inspected and repaired the containers to IICL standards – Cargo Worthy, IICL 5 or IICL 6.

The following is an excerpt from a samvaad (dialogue) session with Acharya Prashant.
Question (Q): Sir, man lives in society. How can we cut-off from society?
Acharya Prashant (AP): Who is that man? Are you afraid? Are you afraid of being cut-off from the society?
Listener 1 (L1): No, Sir.
AP: What you are calling as being cut-off from the society is an event. This event is important to you only if you are afraid of it, otherwise so much is happening. Do you talk about it? Being cut-off from the society, whatsoever it meant, is an event and that event is now being picked up by you. Why? Are you afraid? If not, then why are you talking about it?
Let that happen.
Society is not one thing. You create your own society. What do you think these hundred or thousand people that you know in your life, they are your society? There are millions of societies parallelly running.
You think, just as we said a little while ago, that there is this finite space (pointing towards the room) and the mind thinks that this room is all there is.
Similarly you think that this limited society, all your uncles and aunts, friends and relatives is society. There are a thousand new societies waiting for you, a thousand new worlds waiting for you. Why do you think that this is society?
Just because of fear, just because this society has exploited you. This society threatens you that don’t go away, remain here.

by Sarah Rockford, JOFEE Fellow Cohort 4, Maine Jewish Food Network at Colby College Center for Small Town Jewish Life – Waterville, ME
Fourteen years ago I read from parshat Eikev as a bat mitzvah. As I stood on the bimah and chanted my way through the aliyot, I reflected briefly that the eleventh-hour cramming I’d done over the past hours seemed to be paying off, but reading the final aliyah my concentration waivered, and I lost my place in the scroll. I continued to chant the Hebrew words I’d memorized while theatrically moving the lost yad along the rows of letters on the parchment. When I ran out of words in my head I stopped chanting and shot a desperate look at the rabbi—hoping he would reorient me so I could finish the portion. Our eyes met, he smiled, and congratulated me. I’d finished the aliyah from memory without realizing, and no one was the wiser for my mistake. Relieved and full of adrenaline I started to cry as the congregation began to sing Siman Tov U’Mazal Tov. I believe everyone thought I was having a profound spiritual moment, but these were tears of relief. I was just happy the ordeal was over.
Fourteen years hence I’m revisiting Eikev—these words whose performance made me shake in my shoes. I’ve gleaned some new wisdom this time around, as is often the case with our ancient texts that reveal different facets of themselves to us at different ages. I’ve found much richness and stories of food in this text that speak to my stomach and perhaps my heart too.
In Eikev we are introduced to the seven species, the Shiv’at HaMinim—the bounty of foods the Israelites are promised upon their arrival in the land of Israel. Wheat, barley, grapes, figs, pomegranates, olives, and (date) honey: truly a Technicolor bounty. I love that the beauty of this land is detailed in terms of the foods the Israelites will find there.
As God enumerates the wonders of the food in Eretz Yisrael, God also threatens to withhold the rain, and therefore these crops, should the Israelites forget their debt of gratitude and their obligation to fulfill God’s commandments. Where in Egypt the Israelites watered their fields by hand, crops in Israel, God explains, will be watered by the heavens, by the rain (Deut. 11:11-14). Where in Egypt the work of watering their crops yielded direct results, in the land of Israel it is the Israelites’ fidelity to God that ensures the success of their crops. God swaps the Israelite’s self-sufficiency for faith and this bounty of sweet foods. Beautiful and rich though the land is, faith in an unseen god proves more challenging a task than the labor of watering their fields in Egypt… Spoiler alert, the Israelites stray from God’s commandments, and are punished in kind.
What of that rain today? I would posit that the more things change, the more they remain the same. The health of our communities, like that of the biblical Israelites, depends on the rain in its time, and the regularity of the seasons. I am struck, here, by the parallel between the vulnerability of the Israelites and the precariousness of our modern society. We still rely on the land, but our shortsighted hunger and unchecked consumption have stoked self-destructive impulses—we are degrading the soil that feeds us, and rocking the weather patterns that water our fields. Just as the Israelites were warned, we too know what will happen if we fail to right our relationship with the environment… modern humans are ever as stubborn as those biblical Israelites.
Eikev reminds us of our perennial dependence on the land, and it reminds us of the debt of gratitude we owe for the food the land provides. Here I am reminded of a passage from Braiding Sweetgrass, by Robin Wall Kimmerer. She writes: “Knowing that you love the earth changes you, activates you to defend and protect and celebrate. But when you feel that the earth loves you in return, that feeling transforms the relationship from a one-way street into a sacred bond.” Eating the seven species feels like the land loving us back, it feels like the reciprocal bond Kimmerer writes about. I have access to not seven, but hundreds of species, hundreds of culinary delights that regularly grace my plate. What debt do I owe here? I’m not sure exactly, but it must be worth a lot of rain.
When I think about building a better, more reciprocal relationship between modern humans and the earth I feel at once complicit and insignificant. I look out the window to my little, shaded garden, and I see a neglected plot that is doing its best to eek out a few cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, and too many zucchini. It’s no Eretz Yisrael, but this garden works to feed me, and rereading Eikev I think perhaps I owe it a little more credit, a little more kavod. Maybe I ought to get out and pull some weeds this afternoon—it’s a place to start.

A Cooking Class for Young Families
Starting a family commences a period of change. Expectant parents very quickly transition from thinking for themselves to providing for a new life, and the preparation and anticipation can be overwhelming. Especially when thinking about how we want to feed our new families.
Setting the Table is designed to help couples think through these challenges with a Jewish lens. Participants learn essential tips and cooking techniques that will help them prepare meals for their growing families, highlighting seasonal and local ingredients. Following the cooking portion of the evening, participants gather around the table to enjoy the fruit of their labor and to learn from and grapple with ancient and contemporary texts focused on the experience of a family dinner table. The discussions lead the participants to think about how they wanted to frame their family’s experience around the table.
[myquote author=”Rachel G., Brooklyn, NY”]Setting the Table bridged the gap between sacred preparation and material details, just as food seems to do in Jewish tradition. For our family, it was an opportunity to think about how we would bring intention to our families’ eating habits, even just for the two of us until our son takes to dining at the table.[/myquote]
Setting the Table can be run as a one-time program, as a series of programs, or given directly to new parents as a helpful resource. In addition to yummy, simple recipes, this resource includes a Leader’s Guide for educators with sample programs for holidays like Passover and Shabbat, and also for everyday eating. It also features ancient and contemporary Jewish texts with guiding thought questions. [myspacer]
- The Recipes section features dozens of family-friendly recipes designed with new parents in mind.
- The Thought Texts section incorporates modern and ancient Jewish texts that focus on the experience of a family dinner table.
- Tips for Kids in the Kitchen offers a variety of fun ideas to increase children’s participation in the kitchen and in Jewish ritual for an early start on a healthy lifelong relationship to food and Jewish tradition.
UJA-Federation of New York has provided generous support for the creation and implementation of Setting the Table.

After Two Top Fives, Team Looking To Race More Limited Shows Before Season Ends
Selinsgrove, PA – September 7, 2023
by Addicted2Dirt PR & Media Mgmt
Photo Credit: Derick Kriner Photography
August was an especially tough month for Austin Berry. After two blown super late model engines in three weeks, he had to put an unplanned early end to his super late model season.
A couple days later his phone rang. A friend was offering the use of his spare limited late model engine. Berry said thank you but passed on the offer. He didn’t want to risk anything happening to the engine on his watch.
The friend called two more times that week and the last time didn’t take no for answer.
DATE: September 2, 2023
- Event: Butch Renninger Memorial
- Track: Port Royal Speedway
- City, State: Port Royal, PA
- Division: Limited Late Model
- Quick Stats: 31 cars, Qualifying 5th in Group 2, Heat 3rd (5), A-main 4th (10)
DATE: September 3, 2023
- Event: Labor Day Special
- Track: Selinsgrove Speedway
- City, State: Selinsgrove, PA
- Division: Limited Late Model
- Quick Stats: 25 cars, Heat 1st (6), A-main 2nd (3)
NEW BUT FAMILIAR
Berry entered his first career night of limited late model competition with uncertainties about how his car’s setup would need to differ from what he was used to with more power under the hood and how his driving style might need to change to make The Tire Mart Tire Pros of Harrisburg, Juniata Veterinary Clinic, Berry’s Siding & Seamless Gutter, SRI Performance / Stock Car Steel & Aluminum, VP Racing Fuels, JDS Racing, Locust Hill Custom Butcher Shop, Nathan Berry Beef Farm, Addicted2DirtPR.com, GO Lithium, Valvoline Pro-V Racing, Super Clean, Rocket Chassis, Austin Berry Racing No.86 competitive.
The format for the Butch Renninger Memorial at Port Royal Speedway tossed Berry into the deep end of the pool from the start. Group time trials during hot laps meant no practice, no time to adjust.
Berry turned the 5th quickest lap in his group, then used the time before his heat race to make adjustments. He made the right moves and drove from 5th to 3rd in his heat race.
Rolling to the green from the 10th position for the 25 lap main event, Berry went right to work moving toward the front. He cracked the top five just past the halfway mark of the race. He secured a 4th place finish in the closing laps to take home a top five finish in his first attempt in the division.
LOOKING PRETTY COMFORTABLE
With a very solid first night under his belt, Berry decided to make the trip north on Route 35 the following night to Selinsgrove Speedway.
Berry quickly proved his first night was no fluke. From his 6th starting spot in his 8-lap heat race, he drove into 2nd on lap two and on lap seven he claimed the lead. He went on to take his first limited late model heat race win.
The redraw put Berry on the inside of row two for the 20-lap main event. He settled into the runner up spot during the opening laps then jumped into an early lead.
Berry survived several restarts during the race, keeping Coleby Frye at bay. On the final restart with just six laps remaining, Frye wrestled the lead away and Berry settled for a 2nd place finish.
Two top five finishes in his first two career limited late model starts has Berry looking for opportunities to race a few of the bigger, late season limited races that typically offer an increased purse. With two super late model motors to repair this offseason, making a little cash instead of sitting at home makes sense.
Stay tuned to Austin’s social media outlets and Addicted2DirtPR.com/Events for schedule updates and announcements.
News Coming Soon on PanCan Raffle Items and 2024 Season Kickoff Party Tickets
With the season coming to a close, Berry will be raffling off the team’s tail banner that has been used all season to cover the rear suspension of the car, plus his special edition Pancreatic Cancer Awareness racing gloves. Details will be coming soon on how to enter. All proceeds will go to charity.
In January, Austin Berry Racing will host their annual season kickoff party which features great food, prizes and a live band. The popular event sold out last year with just over 300 fans attending. It was a fun event for all who attended and a big success for the team. Stay tuned for more information about that event in the coming months.

Team Will Take Upcoming Weekend Off to Reset
Winchester, VA – June 27, 2023
by Addicted2Dirt PR & Media Mgmt
Photo Credit: Paige Tedrick/WRT Speedwerx
Trever Feathers was looking forward to racing in his own backyard Saturday night. Winchester Speedway has been good to him over the years and it’s where he has the most laps, not to mention a lot of success.
That makes it a good measuring stick for his program.
Given the challenges of the 2023 season thus far and the amount of changes the team recently made trying to get back on track, it was a good time for that. To make it even better, Saturday was the Jimmy Spence Memorial. Spence was Feather’s great uncle.
- Date: June 24, 2023
- Event: Jimmy Spence Memorial
- Track: Winchester Speedway
- City, State: Winchester, VA
- Quick Stats: 25 cars, Qualifying 10th, Heat 3rd (3), Amain 4th (10)
Honoring Jimmy Spence
Feathers was slightly in disguise in the field of 25 cars that took to Winchester Speedway Saturday night for the Spence Memorial. That’s because the Winchester native’s super late model was sporting a tribute scheme to honor his great uncle, including the No.91 Spence made famous.
The night started off a bit average for Feathers. He timed 10th quick overall, then started and finished 3rd in his heat race. It wasn’t flashy but he was locked into a top ten starting spot and with the main event scheduled for 51 laps, there would be plenty of time to go to the front.
Feathers took the green from outside row five. After a dozen laps, he was still mired in 10th, treading water so to speak.
During the middle section of the feature, Feathers made his way into 8th and held that spot for fifteen laps before beginning to gain ground again. On lap 34, he cracked the top five, then briefly took 4th with fifteen laps remaining before dropping to 5th again.
As the race drew to a close, Feathers got one more shot at Kenny Moreland and wrestled the 4th spot away with three laps to go. He held on there for the checkered flag.
“It was a good night but my car probably wasn’t as good as where we finished. We got better as the night went but I think our tire choice, managing my stuff for a longer race and just giving the car what it wanted helped me move forward late in the race.“, Feathers said.
“We have made some progress but we still aren’t where we need to be. Good or bad, I put a lot of pressure on myself to perform. Like most teams, we need to run well to pay our bills.”
Following a lot of late nights in the shop recently working to turn their season around, Feathers indicated the team’s current plans are to sit out this weekend to reset, regroup and go over their equipment.
Tentative plans would be to return to action Saturday, July 8th at Port Royal Speedway in the Hot Rod Septic Treatment, Larry Royston’s Septic Services, Martins Pumping Service, McFarland Custom Painting & Wall Coverings, North River Farm, Clem’s Garage, Leggett Engine Research, Feathers & Sons Roofing, Coffelt Graphics, Larry Royston Properties, Larry Royston Equipment, Bilstein Shocks, Hoosier Tire Mid-Atlantic, Bo Feathers Racing, Barry Wright Race Cars, No.20.
11 races, 0 wins, 3 top 5’s, 4 top 10’s, 7 top 15’s
The answer to our last trivia question is Trever Feathers’ favorite soda/soft drink is Dr. Pepper!
Now, on to this week’s question. In 2012, Trever won his first Super Late Model race in his __?__ career super late model start at the Paul Johnson Memorial at Winchester (VA) Speedway.
Was it his:
- (A) 2nd start
- (B) 5th start
- (C) 8th start
- (D) 10th start
The answer in the next press release!
Sponsorship opportunities are available for the 2023 season.

There’s always some trend coming in each month or even week but keeping up with this fast fashion is not a small feat. What’s top-rated living room interior design currently In the market in Singapore is what we aim to discuss in our article.
Use of a coffee table

The addition of a coffee table in a living room is a good starting point for people who would like to have a bit of change but not with the expense of a lot of money.
A coffee table that comes with a unique design is something to choose from since what we are looking for is a simple yet trendy design for design admirers.
Color holds the most point when going with interior design. Most of the landed property should aim towards neutral colors which are soft into the eyes yet does a remarkable job.
Some of the popular neutral colors that go with living room wall design are beige, ivory, black, gray, taupe, and different shades of white.
Many senior people prefer this neutral color palette since it has a light color reflection that pleases the eye.

Add UX Notes mode (to Design and Prototype)
As UX, I would like to add page and object notes for my engineering and QA teams. These notes should be visible in PDF exports as well as in the online prototype. See proposed feature UX Design Prototype Link.
Yes. Please. I keep making mockups and then I can't create lines or text or notes to explain anything when doing the output for the teams UNLESS I make a separate screen for it .. which messes up my UI design.
Have the ability to annotate just by adding a simple sticky note. Acts as an easy way to capture thoughts/ideas while in design mode that you can look to later. Easier than creating text and stands out more. It's especially useful working remotely when co-designing and waning to just capture ideas directly in XD.

It renders the latest technology accessible to the masses, makes our favourite apps and websites a pleasure to use, and determines which brands and products we return to over and over again. To put it simply, design matters.
Petr Široký commented
I cannot believe this isn't a feature yet. I don't want to export the stupid prototypes just so I could type something in a browser. Keeping notes in one place would be super useful.
It's like the team behind XD didn't consider this being a significant part of a design process for many individuals and teams.
Please! I have to duplicate my artboards when adding notes so it doesn't clutter up my screen. Super annoying.
+ 1 from me and my team too
Mark Leta commented
Was really hoping this feature were a part of the tool at this point. Large hole in functionality to be able to effectively design UI's and convey specs.
Emamuzo Okerri commented
I would like to add notes to artboards in design and prototype mode that would be tied to the artboard when I share the prototype for review or development.
This would help me explain certain interactions in the prototype, especially those I cannot achieve with xd.
Adam Arends commented
A separate section next to Prototype that allows a complete comment/markup of the artboards by anyone with access. This feature would be something that looks and feels like Acrobat (a small dot that expands on hover or something. you can place the dot on the thing to comment on (like a thumb tack) and then place the comment on a "note" that can be moved and placed anywhere to keep it out of the way. A developer or anther UX can click/tab the "tack" and the comment/note pops up in it's placed location. All of this on another tab and out of the way during Design.
The notes overlay would be great if it was broken down into types of notes:
1. UX notes (what the feature is an how it works)
2. Design note (how it looks and how it is styled)
3. internal notes (user notes on things to come back to or ideas that go to another artboard
4. checklist within the notes would be great.
5. shared boards having an "excel-esque" conversation view on the notes (as excel does with comments).
Bartolomeo D'Alia commented
+1 This is a very important feature fo us.
Harun Alikadić commented
What if you add a "layer" like Pasteboard, called "Notes" that can be hidden. Whatever you add on this layer is above the artboards and Pasteboard.
This leaves space for future development, like signing for export (comments with pin).
It is unbelievable that this feature has not been implemented yet.
As a designer many a times i'd like to add a note on a specific component (like Axure used to allow) which i'd want the developers to pay heed to. Waiting till i publish the design to pin & add that note seems a very tedious process. These notes can appear once i publish the url & design gets shared. Much like annotating the design while i am creating it.
Enable inserting comments in the design like in Excel or Acrobat. Notes &/or comments create dialog about a specific design element without having to draw text boxes and lines to the point of interest.
Priya Harmalkar commented
First of all, just wanted to say co-editing feature is the best. thank you.
Is there a way to leave comments in Design mode? It would be great if the users (of that shared file) could save comments for each other.
A free plugin solution for now: https://designwithfocus.com/#features
Add annotations directly to your design files
Focus is all about adding annotations straight to your design documents. This means that all your notes, ideas, tasks, feedback and whatever else you want to jot down stays relevant and never gets lost again.
All your annotations are safely and securely sync'd to Focus so your data is all in one place.
This would help a LOT, otherwise I have to leave marks on the design itself which is really frustrating.
Amir Aghaei commented
This would really come handy. I currently have create separate doc to put all the notes about everything.
Now I make notes in the online prototype, but when you make a new link, the notes are not copied with it. This is unhandy, when I make a different version of the design for example, like a dark mode version, that need to have the same notes as the light one.

When starting a charity or non-profit organization it might be difficult thing to start since there is a lot involved in it. Championing this course will ensure that your organization is running properly to achieve its goals. By following the pointers in this article you will be able to run a successful nonprofit organization .
For you to achieve the goals you have set, you need to have a clear idea. The outcome you want to create for the world should be clearly defined. Achieving the organization’s goal is something that should be very clear to you and your staff. Planning the work And working out the plan will ensure that you achieve what you need. For you to be able to catch your marks, ensure that you have a list of things to follow and also have a timeline. Whatever resources you need should be stated clearly and also the method you used to check how you perform.
It’s good to have the discipline of saying yes to the excellent ideas only. Everything that An organizations want to do will not be possible since there has never been enough talent, money or time to facilitate it. At times you’ll have to say no even though it takes a thick skin to say so to family and friends, people who sponsor you and even your staff member for you to realize the success you have been working to achieve. Perfection should not stand on the way of achieving the great ideas you have been implementing. Excellent result is as a result of great planning, they are always faster and effective than you trying to perfect things.
Simplicity of your work plan will ensure that you reach the endpoint, if the plan is complicated and your members cannot understand it then its good too sit down and figure out how you can simplify it. As a leader play your role and maximize your time so that the rest of the work can be delegated to others who are able play their roles well. In every department and human resource evaluation, put in place performance standards that will guide your employees.
Stakeholders and donors will want to associate themselves with an organization that get the job done in a proper way and on time. Also remember that fake or fancy promises are counterproductive to your organization. Taking breaks from work will enable you to re-evaluate the process performance metrics and the people working in your organization. Giving your staff time off from work can have a positive effects on them as they might pull something new or different while on their vacation. Public relation is also something you should put into consideration because by relating well with the public, you are able to accomplish a lot in your organization.

Death of the Firstborn
Locusts, Darkness, and Death
The three final plagues – locusts, darkness, and death of the firstborn – were the most frightening and the most devastating. Fekhri Hassan estimated that as many as one-third of Egypt’s population died in these last plagues. What was God trying to tell Pharaoh? The plague of locusts consumed whatever the hail had left behind. Then darkness that could be felt settled upon the homes of the Egyptians, giving them time to consider their choices and what was coming next. The Ipuwer papyrus mentions strange phenomenon of heavy darkness. Was God trying to reach the Egyptians’ hearts while they meditated? In this lecture, Francois du Plessis explores the Bible and the archaeology connected with the tragedy of the death of the firstborn in Egypt and reveals the longsuffering of a God who is not willing that any should perish.

Strike while the iron’s hot. Two posts in one day! Turns out I could get the desired effect by using the Reverse Warping Method. (If I do say so myself, that is an excellent tutorial.) Note that the pattern is not centered on the square. On the left border you see complete “stars;” on the right you see 2/3 stars.Read More →
Easiest way to recognize you’re avoiding something?
It doesn’t get done … And doesn’t get done … And doesn’t get done …
Imagine that, unlike me, you want to make a project—sew squares together and arrive at something useful. Our imaginary project involves weaving “Companion Squares” that, when combined, contribute to a “Bigger Picture.” (The terms “Companion Squares” and “Bigger Picture” will be used throughout this article to describe the type of squares referred to—see photo caption.)
It’s helpful to know which corner is which when reading my blog posts because I often refer to corners and sides of the loom (or squares).
This information is also useful when it comes to joining your squares.
Please note: Corner 1 (cr1) and Corner 4 are usually interchangeable. There may be times when it matters that your squares are right side up (meaning cr1 at the bottom left), so please take care!
Have to say, this one didn’t turn out as I’d hoped. (It’s been redesigned and needs to be rewoven.) In its defense, I designed it on graph paper–long before I began designing with charts on the computer–using the palest pencil imaginable. It was hard to see the diagram to transfer it to digital media, so I can only imagine (because I can’t remember) how difficult it must have been to design. Apparently I had no trouble following my nearly imperceptible graphite marks because I wove what I wrote. Nevertheless, while transcribing the pattern I decided to make some improvements (untested at this point, but I’m certain they’re improvements).
Before I could transfer the semi-visible drawing to the computer, I thought I’d better get a look at the original so I could know what I was trying to copy. Here’s a rough sketch of what Road to Tennessee looked like in my quilt block book.
(Originally published 17 Oct 2017, now with updated diagrams)
I haven’t woven these two patterns, but I know they looked good as 4″ squares.
I offer them here for the 6″ loom.
The following information was originally on the Facebook Pin Loom Weaving Support Group. According to new Facebook policy (as far as I understand it) the post is considered spam because of all the links it contains. I don’t want to lose the information I’ve collected, so I’m posting it here. Read More →
I’ve been putting off writing this one because I thought I already had. Unlike the method in Part 5, I actually like this one a lot and have found it quite useful. For patterns that have a lot of O3s combined with U3s—particularly those with the U3/O3, O3/U3 star motif—this is a great warping configuration. (You can also use L1/2-4 for such patterns, but L1&2/3&4 will usually look better). I plan to post several new patterns soon that will show examples using this warping method (see Lattice Borders and variations for examples).

We’ll provide everything you need to have three great days of fishing. This includes tackle, rods, reels, plastic bait, plus flies and fly roads if specified. We also bring breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, and beverages. If you prefer to use your own fishing gear, feel free to bring a rod, hard bait, crank baits, plugs, or minnows. Transportation to and from the river will also be provided in addition to tents, sleeping cots, and dry gear.
You’re responsible for obtaining and bringing your West Virginia fishing license, which you’ll need to show your fishing guide before the trip. We recommend bringing sunscreen and weather-appropriate clothes, including rain gear, warm layers, sunglasses, and a hat. Ask for an Overnight Checklist for more details on what to bring.
This is a three-day, overnight trip, with approximately eight hours spent on the river each day. All trips depart during early morning.
The minimum age for this adventure is eight years old. You must have a current West Virginia fishing license, which you’ll need to show your guide during check in. All fishing trips are catch and release with artificial baits only. Consult with your physician before attempting any new activity.
Your fishing guide will discuss all specific safety requirements on site. Our guides know this river better than anybody, and they’ll help you with bait or fly selection and where to cast, plus instruction if necessary.

$23,439,724 siphoned illegally by Abacha family was recovered by British NCA
The British National Crime Agency (NCA) has reported that it ” recovered $23,439,724.98 siphoned out of Nigeria in the 1990s by the associates and family of former Nigerian Head of State, General Sani Abacha.
The funds form part of a larger pool of monies identified by the United States Department of Justice (USDOJ) as having been misappropriated by Abacha and his associates.”
The report on NCA website stated: “Acting on a request from the USDOJ, the NCA pursued nearly seven years of protracted litigation and international negotiation to obtain the recovery order, to enforce the US forfeiture order relating to the recovered monies. The funds have now been transferred to the Home Office for onward transmission to the USDOJ. The ultimate intention is for the $23.5m to be repatriated for the benefit of the Nigerian people.
Billy Beattie, Asset Denial Senior Manager at the NCA, said: “The NCA is committed to ensuring that the UK is not a safe haven for criminals to launder their proceeds of crime, and civil recovery of assets is a powerful weapon in this fight.”
“We work closely with UK and international partners to tackle the threat posed by corruption, which disproportionately impacts the poorest and most vulnerable members of society. We are committed to ensuring that those who perpetuate corruption do not benefit from their actions.”
It concluded that “The NCA case is ongoing with further monies having been identified by the USDOJ as having also been misappropriated by Abacha and his associates “

The demand for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) is increasing quickly due to the rise in traffic accidents on a global scale. To make driving safer and cut down on accidents, automakers are heavily investing in the development of these technologies. Customers are increasingly choosing vehicles with ADAS capabilities as they become more aware of the safety advantages of these systems. The need for ADAS is being further increased by governments drafting legislation to make such systems required in vehicles.
BEV segment to be the largest market by value during forecast period
BEVs have an increasing demand due to concerns about emission reductions worldwide. Due to the low availability of charging stations and the high cost of EV batteries, BEVs had a low demand. However, the demand for BEVs has increased significantly due to the decreasing cost of EV batteries at a fast and steady rate coupled with increasing EV range and a growing EV charging network worldwide. BEVs contributed to a considerable part of top-selling EVs in the market in 2022. BEVs are available in multiple segments, including sedans, SUVs, and hatchbacks. Many OEMs are launching electric vehicles to cater to the market demand. Tesla, Volkswagen AG (Germany), SAIC Motors (China), BYD, and Stellantis (Netherlands) are the pure electric vehicle companies topping sales. In contrast, OEMs such as Nissan, Toyota, and GM offer tough competition to electric vehicle manufacturers. Tesla is a bestseller in North America and Europe, whereas Wuling HongGuang Mini EV is a low-cost EV popular in China. BEV models such as Tesla Model X offer autopilot ADAS features, including adaptive cruise control, auto park, and lane departure warning systems. OEMs such as Nissan, BMW, Mercedes Benz, Ford, GM, and others provide ADAS features across their premium models. For instance, Nissan offers pro-pilot features to its Nissan Leaf and Nissan Altima electric cars. The pro-pilot ADAS features include ACC, IPA, and LDW. Similarly, Mercedes Benz provides a drive-pilot for its S Class model, which comes with autonomous emergency braking, blind spot detection, lane change warning, evasive steering assist, traffic jam assist, speed limit assist, and remote parking assist. Mercedes is one of the best providers of level 3 automation in passenger cars.

Software to be the fastest growing segment during the forecast period
Increasing demand for accurate and faster object recognition will be a major growth driver for the software segment of the ADAS Market. Modern vehicles are equipped with high-resolution cameras and long-range radar sensors for driver assistance. Hence, developments in image recognition technology will play a critical role in deploying these sensors in upcoming vehicles. Newer features such as pedestrian recognition, cyclist recognition, vehicle detection, driver monitoring systems, and traffic sign recognition are being tested, and plans to roll them out in more vehicles for improved occupant safety are underway. More sophisticated ADAS features would demand faster and more accurate software algorithms/platforms for detecting objects with low latency. BlackBerry (Canada) has developed QNX as a modular, flexible, and hardware-optimized software platform for ADAS applications. ADAS software consists of algorithms that perform pre-decided functions based on the input data from cameras, radar, LiDAR, and ultrasonic sensors. The input data is processed by the ECUs and activates the physical vehicle components such as steering, brakes, throttle, and others to evade accidents. The entire process is controlled and monitored by the software platform, from analyzing the input data to the decision-making. Automakers are turning toward deep learning as they look for innovative ways to enable smart camera applications and automated driving systems for next-generation vehicles. In December 2020, Renesas Electronics (Japan) developed an R-car software development kit. This complete software platform enables quick and easy software development and offers validation for smart cameras and automated driving applications used in commercial, passenger, and off-road vehicles. It manages the software complexity and supporting features ranging from entry safety compliance to advanced highway pilot.
“Europe is leading the ADAS Market as of 2022”
Automotive is one of the key industries in Europe. In June 2022, the region had 301 automobile assembly and production plants, of which 134 produce passenger cars, 41 produce vans, 52 build trucks, 66 produce buses, 72 make engines, and 18 make batteries. According to the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA), Europe accounted for around 22% of global vehicle production in 2022. The European automotive market registered steady growth in the last six years despite the recent global automotive slowdown. Leading European automotive manufacturers to offer high-performance engines and advanced safety features to stay competitive. Passenger car sales of major automakers such as the Volkswagen Group, Mercedes Benz, Renault, Hyundai, BMW, Toyota, and Stellantis led to the demand for ADAS-enabled vehicles in the region.
According to experts, stringent emission regulations and zero emission targets in Europe would majorly affect both passenger car and commercial vehicle manufacturers during the forecast period. The growth of the European ADAS Market can be attributed to technological advancements in driver assistance features such as traffic jam assist and blind-spot detection with rear cross-traffic and mandates that have been set up since July 2022 or features such as DMS, AEB and LCW in passenger cars. The growing shift to EVs and the growing demand for road safety will increase ADAS demand in the region.
However, the region will be affected by the upcoming recession, which will impact the automotive market. Factors such as the ongoing energy crisis and the increasing cost of living in this region, with minimal salary growth to match the price inflation, will lead to reduced automotive demand. Countries such as Germany, Netherlands, France, and the UK have already been severely impacted due to these factors.
Key Market Players:
The ADAS Market is dominated by established players such as Robert Bosch (Germany), Denso (Japan), Continental AG (Germany), Magna International (US), and ZF Friedrichshafen (Germany), among others. These companies provide ADAS components to global OEMs. These companies have set up R&D infrastructure and offer best-in-class products to their customers.

Caledonia Mining Corporation Plc Q1 Production Update
ST HELIER, Jersey, April 24, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Caledonia Mining Corporation Plc (NYSE AMERICAN, AIM and VFEX: CMCL) (“Caledonia” or the “Company”) announces gold production from the Blanket Mine in Zimbabwe (“Blanket”) and the Bilboes oxides project in Zimbabwe for the quarter ended 31 March 2023 (“Q1 2023” or the “Quarter”). All production numbers are expressed on a 100 per cent basis and are based on the final assay at the refiners.
Quarterly gold production at Blanket Mine was 16,036 ounces, 13 per cent lower than the 18,515 ounces produced in the first quarter of 2022. Production was lower than last year due to several individually insignificant mechanical breakdowns and logistical issues which have now been resolved and production in the early part of April 2023 has been better than expected.
Management re-iterates production guidance for Blanket for the year to December 31, 2023 of between 75,000 and 80,000 ounces of gold1.
Bilboes commenced production of gold from oxides derived from pre-stripping works in the last few days of the Quarter, producing 105 ounces of gold. Commencement of oxide production at Bilboes has been slower than anticipated, having been adversely affected by inconsistent grades, mechanical breakdowns and the poor availability of spare parts and alternative equipment.
As highlighted in the production guidance dated January 13, 2023, the on-mine cost/oz of Bilboes oxide production was anticipated to be $1,200-1,320 and is hence a relatively low margin activity which is primarily justified by the parallel benefit of pre-stripping in anticipation of the development of the Bilboes sulphide project. The Company is reviewing the initial evidence of this activity given some of the initial challenges and relative to the larger sulphide project, for which a feasibility study is being updated. Accordingly, going forward, we will report actual production achieved each quarter at the oxides project as part of the pre-stripping activities and, accordingly, have withdrawn guidance on the low-margin oxide production.
Commenting on the announcement, Mark Learmonth, Chief Executive Officer, said:
“Gold production at Blanket is usually lower in the first quarter of each year and increases in the following quarters. This trend is in evidence this year, albeit production in the first quarter of 2023 was below our target due to a series of issues including equipment failures and logistical issues. These issues have been resolved and production to date in April has been higher than expected.
“The small-scale low margin oxide operation at Bilboes is effectively a pre-stripping exercise for the larger sulphide project in respect of which we have commenced work on an updated feasibility study. The oxide project was adversely affected by the breakdown of contractor-provided drill-rigs which are used for evaluation drilling and the limited availability in Zimbabwe of spare parts or alternative equipment.
“In light of the foregoing, we reiterate production guidance for 2023 of between 75,000 and 80,000 ounces of gold from Blanket.
“We expect to publish further operating information and the financial results for the Quarter on or about May 15, 2023.”

Country A-Go-Go pays homage to country music’s roots featuring deep cuts from legends like Hank Williams, Jean Shepard, Tammy Wynette and George Jones to undiscovered artists of the 50s, 60s and 70s whose influence can still be found in today’s hits. The station captures the essence of those generations through its carefully curated playlist – even featuring vintage audio ads to take listeners on a journey through time.
Listeners will hear the changing tides of American culture over the course of three decades through a uniquely country perspective. Country A-Go-Go presents a voice of the people many have never heard before.
To make this station a reality Hanks and Daughtry scoured record bins around the country and turned to their own personal record collections, digitizing over 3,500 vinyl records of classic country. The station brings these classic hits out of the archives to showcase the music created during its greatest era that continues to impact the music still playing on the radio today.
“This is the music that I grew up with, and still influences the music that I love to this day,” said Daughtry. “The new generation of country music artists are amazing. The genre is having a huge comeback right now. Just take a listen to Garth’s new station, The Big 615! Country A-Go-Go reconnects listeners with country music’s origins to hear the legends that gave country its soul. This station is for any country music fan that wants to hear great music from a very influential time in history.”
The commercial-free station makes its debut on TuneIn during the week of Hank Williams’ 100th Birthday, with special programming that celebrates this important event in music history with some deep-cut recordings of the country legend.
Country A-Go-Go is the latest of several collaborations planned between Hanks and Daughtry. The first of which was Boss Radio 66, a station dedicated to classic rock 45s from the 50s, 60s and 70s.

For those of you who are in the process of booking a band for your wedding reception, you may be wondering how many hours you should hire your band for. No one wants their wedding reception to feel too short, or for guests to feel like it’s dragging on too long. So what’s the norm?
The standard block of time is 4 hours, which is also the typical reception length at venues, and 5 hours is plenty. If permitted by the venue, most bands recommend booking a 4-hour block to start and extending an additional hour the night-of if the dance floor is packed (rather than securing a 5-hour block up front). For your ceremony and cocktail hour music, consider going through the same entertainment vendor to keep things simple and easy (a smaller ensemble of musicians, or recorded music through the band’s DJ, if available). If you want to mix things up, you can of course consider bringing in separate vendors for your ceremony and cocktail hour music, such as string musicians for the ceremony and a bluegrass trio for cocktail hour. Going through one entertainment vendor for all music will be your most cost effective option, however.
Another option to discuss with your band is the possibility of having the band’s DJ play recorded music for that extra hour, should you decide to extend the 4-hour block at the end of the night. This is always the most cost effective option, rather than paying for 8 band members to perform—and it gives you a bit of a different vibe!

The National Consumer Complaint Database (NCCDB) allows consumers to file complaints regarding household goods moving companies, including brokers, carriers and freight forwarders. This system also allows HHG companies the ability to view the individual details of the complaints and to challenge duplicate or fraudulent complaints.
In order to access this system, please visit:
The following table reports the number of complaints lodged in the NCCDB against the selected HHG company in the last four years. When making comparison between companies, it is important to take into account the size of the companies. Larger companies are capable of handling more moves; and therefore, are more likely to have complaints lodged against them. The data shown above under fleet size can be used for assessing the size of a company.

What did you do at breakfast time this morning?My mouthfuls of breakfast were interspersed by taking frame after frame of an unfolding miracle birth. Here's why.
With the arrival of the summer weather (finally!) it has prompted some residents of our garden wildlife pond to move into the next phase of their amazing life-cycle. After re-establishing our pond around four years ago, we had been delighted that the dragonflies had chosen to lay their eggs in it shortly afterwards. Since then, we have been eagerly awaiting the day when the nymphs of the Southern Hawker dragonfly Aeshna cyanea, would crawl out at the end of their three years of maturing. Surviving by preying on other small creatures, such as tadpoles and other aquatic insects that live in the pond, we have watched as the tiny nymphs have grown bigger each year. Finally, on Sunday, we were excited to spot the signs that our first 'brood' were on the move, as empty nymph cases littered the sedge leaves.
So this morning, I set the alarm early and arrived at the pond-edge to find several new empty cases from those nymphs which had metamorphosed during the night, as is the nature of most of the Odonata family. However, there are always those that are the late risers and it was not difficult to find one such nymph. With the pond-edge being less than ideal to sit and photograph from, I make no apologies for then making life easy for myself. With one very restless nymph and a pot set up very quickly with a few blades of sedge I set myself up in my kitchen with nothing more than my little G12, and waited.
After a few attempts to climb the sedge, I watched as it finally clamped itself to a blade and started wriggling, followed very shortly by the splitting of the nymph case along the back of the thorax, almost missing the start as it happened so quickly.And so the series of images began- needless to say it took rather a long time for me to finish my breakfast as the literally, unfolding birth that was happening in front of me was truly captivating. Even having watched the event before, it still never ceases to amaze me how such a stunning insect can emerge from such an aggressive-looking creature.
After around an hour and a half it had reached the stage shown above, and that is unfortunately, where I had to leave it for a while whilst I attended to other business. Carefully moving it to the safety of an (empty) old fish tank in a quiet corner of the garden, I left it in the drying out stage. Returning four hours later, I was pleased to find the transformation almost complete. Lifting the assemblage from the safety of the tank, the first wafts of warm summer air hit the wings of the female Southern Hawker and with that, gave a litle flutter and off she buzzed on her maiden flight.
Below are the series of images, and if they prompt just one adult or child to look out for and watch the amazing spectacle, then I will be very happy indeed. It should be experienced at least once in a lifetime.

Chairman of Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing Company, Innocent Chukwuma, has faulted the media attacks on Abia State Governor Alex Otti for his recent purchase of 20 Toyota-branded vans for security agencies in Abia State.
Chukwuma who stated this on Friday at Nvosi, Isiala Ngwa South LGA during his visit to Abia State governor, Alex Otti, described Otti as the number one promoter of the Innoson brand.
“He’s the number one marketer of Innoson. Most of the vehicles bought by the government in this state, Abia, are Innoson vehicles and they are happy with the vehicles.”
He thanked Otti for his continued patronage and support.
On the current brouhaha that Otti shunned Innoson motors for Toyota, Chukwuma defended the governor, saying that Otti had placed an order for 20 security pick-up vans from his company, which the government needed urgently but were not available at that period of demand as Innoson had run out of stock at that period.
He noted that his company’s inability to supply the 20 vans at the urgent period of need, may have informed the governor’s option for another brand which according to Chukwuma, should not earn Otti criticisms.
The founder of Nigeria’s indigenous vehicle manufacturing company who also used the visit to announce his company’s plans to establish Compressed Natural Gas, GNG plant in Abia for use by diesel and petrol vehicles, disclosed that IVM is presently negotiating with officials of the Abia State government to set up a servicing and vehicles repairing centre in the State.
Receiving the business mogul, Governor Otti promised to maintain his support for the Nigerian indigenous vehicle manufacturing company and disclosed his administration has already purchased no fewer than 40 Innoson brands of vehicles.
He added that arrangements were ongoing to procure more vehicles, including 24 vehicles for members of Abia State House of Assembly.
The Governor reminded the Innoson Chairman that his own (Governor’s) official vehicle was still awaited from his company, to which the carmaker quickly promised to deliver by next week.
He assured IVM of the Abia State government’s readiness to partner with the brand, saying that the initiatives would create jobs for Abia youths and contribute to the State’s economic growth.
Akelicious recalls that Abia’s political space has been awash in the past four days with mountains of criticisms from the opposition members against Governor Otti’s purchase of Toyota vehicles for security agencies during the launch of Abia’s combined security outfit, Operation Crush.
The opposition members, including some PDP chieftains, had faulted the governor for shunning Innoson for another brand, despite the fact that he used Nigerian brands to campaign before his election as governor.

Manufacturer Miller Brewing Company
Miller Lite, also known simply as Lite, is a 4.2% abv pale lager light beer brand sold by MillerCoors of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States. Miller Lite competes with Anheuser-Busch's Bud Light beer. The company also produces Miller Genuine Draft and Miller High Life.

The light beer project miller lite wins gold in 2016
Miller Lite was essentially the first mainstream light beer. After its first inception as "Gablinger's Diet Beer," developed in 1967 by Joseph L. Owades, PhD, a biochemist working for New York's Rheingold Brewery, the recipe was given (by the inventor of the light beer process) to one of Miller's competing breweries, Chicago's Meister Brau, which came out with the Meister Brau "Lite" brand in the late 1960s. When Meister Brau ran into financial problems and sold its labels to Miller in 1972, the recipe was relaunched simply as "Lite" on packaging and in advertising (with "Lite Beer from Miller" being its "official" name until the late '90s) in the test markets of Springfield, Illinois, Knoxville, Tennessee, and San Diego, California, in 1973, and heavily marketed using masculine pro sports players and other, so-called, macho figures of the day in an effort to sell to the key beer-drinking male demographic. Miller Lite was introduced nationally in 1975. Miller's heavy-advertising approach worked where the two previous light beers had failed, and Miller's early production totals of 12.8 million barrels quickly increased to 24.2 million barrels by 1977 as Miller rose to 2nd place in the American brewing marketplace. Other brewers responded, in particular Anheuser-Busch with its heavily advertised Bud Light in 1982, which eventually overtook Lite in sales by 1994. Anheuser-Busch played on the branding style of "Lite" by highlighting the fact that their beer was called "Bud Light," as "everything else is just a light." In 1992 light beers became the biggest domestic beer in America, and in 1998, Miller relabeled its "Lite" brand as "Miller Lite."
In 2008 Miller Brewing Company test-marketed three new recipes – an amber, a blonde ale, and a wheat – under the Miller Lite brand, marketed as Miller Lite Brewers Collection.
In December 2013, as part of a product placement marketing campaign with the film Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues, Miller reintroduced the 1974 navy-blue blackletter font "Lite" packaging on its 16-US-fluid-ounce (470 ml) cans for a limited time (the original 1972 cans used a light-blue script logo). However, the vintage packaging succeeded so well that by September 2014, the company decided to switch back to the vintage packaging full-time, including on bottles and tap handles, mirroring the unexpected success that PepsiCo had in 2009 with its Pepsi Throwback & Mountain Dew Throwback lines in tapping into the retro-themed packaging market. The unexpected sales increase, combined with wanting to differentiate the packaging from Bud Light, were factors in the decision, with some consumers even stating that Miller actually improved on the taste when nothing changed in the beer itself.
Miller Lite won the World Beer Cup's gold medal for Best American-Style Light Lager in 1996, 1998, 2012, 2013, and 2016. It also won the Great American Beer Festival's silver medal in 2003 in the same category. At the 2010 and 2014 Great American Beer Festival, Miller Lite won the gold medal for Best American Style Lager or Light Lager, beating out Miller Genuine Draft, which received the bronze.
Miller Lite's long-running "Great Taste...Less Filling!" advertising campaign was ranked by Advertising Age magazine as the eighth best advertising campaign in history. The campaign was developed by the advertising agency McCann-Erickson Worldwide. In the prime of the campaign, television commercials typically portrayed a Miller Lite drinker noting its great taste followed by another who observed that it was less filling. This usually led to a parody of Wild West saloon fights in which every patron got involved in the dispute for no real reason, though in this case it was always a shouting match, and blows were never thrown. The commercials were closed with a voiceover from actor Eddie Barth, who read the slogan, "Lite Beer from Miller: Everything you've always wanted in a beer. And less."
To attract 'Joe Sixpack' to a light beer, these commercials started to feature both elite ex-athletes such as Ray Nitschke, Ben Davidson, and Bubba Smith but also oddball cultural figures such as Mickey Spillane (accompanied by a blonde, Lee Meredith, who is better known for her role as Ulla, the secretary in The Producers), and comedian Rodney Dangerfield. As the series of commercials went on, it began featuring athletes and celebrities of all sorts. Some commercials from this era include:
As the popularity of the ads and the number of athletes and celebrities that appeared in them grew, Miller produced occasional "alumni" ads featuring all of the stars, generally in some sort of competition between the 'Less Fillings' and the 'Taste Greats'. The ads usually ended with Rodney Dangerfield somehow being the goat of the losing team. In one of the last spots to feature Dangerfield, the Miller Lite alumni are competing in a bowling match. It is the last frame of a tie game, and Ben Davidson grumbles to Dangerfield, "All we need is one pin, Rodney." Dangerfield rolls the ball down the lane, only to have it bounce horizontally off the head pin and into the gutter, knocking down zero pins.
As part of this campaign, Miller Brewing ran a series of highly distinctive television commercials in the winter of 1993–1994 showing several fictitious "extreme sports" such as "Wiener Dog Drag Racing" (which featured two wiener dogs racing each other at a drag racing strip), "Sumo High Dive" (which depicted a Japanese sumo wrestler diving off a platform) and "The Miss Perfect Face-Off" (which featured beauty pageant contestants playing ice hockey). The tag line that followed was, "If you can combine great taste with less filling, you can combine anything." and the question "Can your beer do this?"
In 1995-1996, Miller Lite ran the "Life Is Good" campaign, which showed Miller Lite drinkers' aspirational transition to more fun via a Miller Lite bottle tap, like "Beach Rewind", where three men on a beach admired three beautiful women walking by, and could rewind, and enjoy, the scene repeatedly. The campaign was developed by Leo Burnett Company, and received the American Marketing Association EFFIE award for outstanding advertising effectiveness. The campaign included celebrities such as Larry Bird, Keith Jackson, and Richard Karn.
Beginning January 12, 1997, a series of surrealistic Miller Lite ads, purportedly made by a man named "Dick", began to air. They were hallmarked as such either at the beginning or the end of the commercial. The campaign was developed by Minneapolis-based ad agency Fallon. The series of "Dick" commercials was directed by Gerald Casale of the new wave band Devo. Such commercials include one where a middle-aged man sees the message "twist to open" on a Miller Lite bottle cap, and he proceeds to do the Twist.
The ad campaign changed back to using high-profile celebrities who were either on opposite ends of the spectrum or had bragging rights to exchange with the other. Notable pairings included the following:
In 2002, "Catfight", another high-profile commercial in the long-running "Great Taste...Less Filling" campaign, was denounced by critics as depicting women as sexual objects. The commercial featured two women, a blonde (Tanya Ballinger) and a brunette (Kitana Baker), discussing the classic "Great Taste/Less Filling" debate, except they engaged in a catfight, hence the ad's title, with the fight moving from a fountain to a mud pit, with the girls stripping each other of their clothing in the process. An uncensored version of the commercial ended in the muddy beauties, stripped down to their underwear, sharing a passionate kiss. The girls received much publicity from the commercial, and later starred in a few related commercials, videos and events.
In 2006, Miller Lite had an advertising campaign called Man Laws featuring celebrities that include actor Burt Reynolds, professional wrestler Triple H, comedian Eddie Griffin, and former American football player Jerome Bettis. The celebrities and other actors were in a "Men of the Square Table", a group meeting where they discuss different situations that should be included in the "Man Laws". The ads were developed by the ad agency Crispin Porter + Bogusky/Miami, and were directed by comedy film director Peter Farrelly.
In June 2010, commercials premiered featuring actresses Lindsey McKeon and Nadine Heimann as bartenders.
Miller Brewing Company began their NASCAR sponsorship in 1983 with driver Bobby Allison, advertising the Miller High Life brand and later in 1990 with driver Rusty Wallace, advertising the Miller Genuine Draft brand. In 1997, the company began advertising the Miller Lite brand on Wallace's #2 Penske Racing car. The car later earned the nickname "Blue Deuce", due to its number and blue paint scheme. Wallace retired following the 2005 season, and Kurt Busch was named as his replacement. Busch drove the "Blue Deuce" from 2006 to 2010. The car is currently driven by Brad Keselowski, who won the 2012 Sprint Cup Series championship.
Other promotion in motorsport included the sponsoring of Don Prudhomme's Larry Dixon-driven NHRA top fuel dragster from 1997 to 2007. Prior to that, Dixon was sponsored by Miller Genuine Draft. Additionally, Miller Brewing sponsored the Unlimited hydroplane of R.B. "Bob" Taylor in 1984 with the U-7 "Lite All-Star", driven by Tom D'Eath. The following year, Miller switched teams and brands with the "Miller American" Unlimited hydroplane owned by Fran Muncey and Jim Lucero--which resulted in the 1985 National Championship, and APBA Gold Cup wins in 1985, 1986, and 1987, driven by Chip Hanauer.

Predicting foundation response for offshore wind turbines Supervised by Britta Bienen, Conleth O’Loughlin
The aim of this research is to predict the installation and in service response of suction buckets supporting offshore wind turbines. This foundation concept is now being adopted in offshore wind farm designs. Following self-weight penetration into the seabed, the bucket is installed by pumping water out of the bucket, which creates a pressure differential across the lid and drives further penetration. In service, the foundation needs to resist the cyclic loading imposed on the turbine from the ocean environment. The mechanisms of suction installation (in layered soils in particular) and the effects of the installation process on the soil state are poorly understood. The evolution of foundation stiffness and displacement underpin the design. The research will be predominantly experimental, utilising recently developed purposedesigned experimental facilities. The project is a collaboration with Lloyd’s Register EMA and Melbourne University.

On Monday the 3rd of April, the Council of Europe’s Committee on Artificial Intelligence (CAI) will kick off its work towards the long anticipated AI Treaty. We are honoured that ALLAI co-founder Virginia Dignum will speak at the Inaugural Meeting of the CAI (High-Level Segment) and that ALLAI is an official Observer to the CAI.
What is the CAI?
The CAI is the successor of the CAHAI (the ad-hoc committee on Artificial Intelligence of the Council of Europe)*, and will be tasked with developing a legal instrument on AI based on the Council of Europe’s standards on human rights, democracy and the rule of law, an AI Treaty.
An AI Treaty
Where the ethics of AI were at the center of the debate in 2018 and 2019, the impact of AI on human rights, democracy and the rule of law started receiving the attention it deserves from 2020 and onwards. “AI impacts virtually all human rights, ranging from privacy to non-discrimination and from freedom speech to freedom of demonstration.” says ALLAI President Catelijne Muller, who authored an expert report for the CAHAI, that serves as a building block for the work towards a European AI Treaty.
“The CAI will be developing probably the most important document of our time. A legal instrument to protect the very foundations of our society in a world with AI: our human rights, our democracy and our rule of law. This instrument will determine what a world with AI will look like.” says Catelijne.
“It also remains important to keep AI researchers and experts involved in the discussions around AI regulation, though, says ALLAI co-founder Virginia Dignum, a long time AI developer and researcher herself. “They will be able to tell you how the technology works and why these inner workings lead to human rights’ impacts. Without this understanding, any regulation runs the risk of failing to achieve its objectives.”
ALLAI’s involvement in the work of the CAI
In 2020, by unanimous vote of the Heads of Delegations of the Member States, ALLAI was accepted as on of the 26 Observers** to the CAHAI and is continuing this position for the CAI. As such ALLAI will have first hand insights of the developments within the CAI, the direction in which the negotiations on the AI Treaty are going and will be able to continue contributing to the work of the CAI. The work of the CAI is anticipated to be concluded in November 2023.
* * *
* The CAHAI was tasked with examining the feasibility of a legally binding instrument on AI and developing such an instrument, based on the Council of Europe’s standards on human rights, democracy and the rule of law.
** Other observers are (a.o.): GPAI, Partnership on AI, Human Rights Watch, CCBE and INRIA.

Because why wouldn’t it? And hopefully, it won’t go too fast!
Well, we made it to Friday, and with that comes the promise of more commercials!
Yesterday, we watched commercials from November 2002, airing on a late-evening broadcast of a rerun on a basic cable network. Today, we’re watching commercials from one of the “Big Three” networks, from June 2001. The date on the tape label says June 5, 2001. The program was an episode of The Rosie O’Donnell Show, and Jimmy Fallon (who was hosting the MTV Movie Awards that week) was a guest.
If you told me 18 years ago that he would be hosting The Tonight Show, I would have told you you’re lying.
Included in this block of commercials:
Connecticut Governor John Rowland and his wife try witty banter as a selling point to get you to visit Connecticut during the summer of 2001!
Hidden Valley Ranch…now in a squeeze bottle!
Before Dad Bod, there was K-Mart commercials celebrating Father’s Day, and clothes for dads!
Michael Bloomberg…for Mayor!
I have nothing about this, other than the fact that it is a coffee commercial, and the Twin Towers were still a glorious part of the New York City skyline.
And finishing your chores so you can go on a date…priceless.
So go on, click play and relive the early summer of 2001 in all its glory!
I used to watch The Rosie O’Donnell Show when it was on, and sometimes, not just because there was a guest on I wanted to see. I loved her talk show!
I still find it hard to believe this guy became a talk show host. He always seemed so nervous!
And he never combed his hair!
These Throwback Thursday/Flashback Friday commercial blocks are a fun treat, and a nice way to usher in the weekend!

Book review: Rutgers v. Waddington: Alexander Hamilton, the End of the War for Independence, and the Origins of Judicial Review by Peter Charles Hoffer (Kansas University Press, 2016).
During the Revolutionary War, a widow named Elizabeth Rutgers and her sons were forced to abandon their brewery when the British occupied New York City in 1776. Upon their return, they demanded rent from Joshua Waddington, a Tory who had been occupying and running their establishment from 1778 until displaced by a New York state law enacted in 1783, restoring property to Patriots who had previously abandoned the city. Under the plain construction of the Trespass Act, one part of the elaborate “Loyalist code” meant to punish Tories and encourage them to mend their ways, it was quite clear that Rutgers was entitled to generous compensation from Waddington. In early 1784, the Rutgers would initiative a lawsuit in the city’s Mayor’s Court.
In Waddington’s defense his lawyer argued a brilliant, novel defense that relied upon a learned reading of the Laws of Nations (and its subset the Laws of War) that, coupled with the New York Constitution’s incorporation of the English common law into that of New York’s, he argued, trumped the statutory law as the governing authority. In addition, he continued, a proper reading of the recently ratified Treaty of Paris’s provisions regarding Tory property similarly barred the Trespass Act’s application to the case at bar, another novel assertion that had far reaching implications for the young nation. The Trespass Act thus disposed with, under this young and relatively newly minted lawyer’s logic, Waddington’s payment to the lawful British authorities largely ought to absolve him of any obligation to Rutgers.
Now, Rutgers was ably represented by her relative and State’s Attorney General, Egbert Benson, who was acting in his private capacity in this case (a situation unimaginable to today’s lawyer, but not uncommon at the time). Benson was a well-respected lawyer of substantial experience. Further, he had served in both the state’s constitutional convention and the assembly that had enacted the Trespass Act, placing him in an authoritative position to interpret both documents. After the litigation he would go on to receive further offices and honors.
But in the annals of American history Benson was a nobody next to Waddington’s relatively young and less experienced counsel, none other than Super Patriot and “ten dollar founding father” Alexander Hamilton.
Peter Charles Hoffer’s Rutgers vs Waddington: Alexander Hamilton, the End of the War for Independence, and the Origins of Judicial Review recounts and thoroughly examines this important but largely forgotten episode of Confederation-era history, and considers its importance as a political as well as a legal event. This new entry in Kansas University Press’s Landmark Law Cases and American Society series uses Rutgers to discourse on many aspects of Revolutionary New York. Hoffer covers both city and state politics, its tavern culture and court system, and the new generation of lawyers that emerged largely as a result of the state’s extensive series of laws aimed at keeping Tories out of public life, including bench and bar.
Hamilton in fact had made a lucrative niche for himself in representing Tories like Waddington in war-related property disputes, eventually handing over sixty such cases. It was not primarily the fees that attracted Hamilton, but the principle of law such cases involved. By honoring its treaty commitments and demonstrating it could put the Confederation’s legal obligations above parochial political considerations, America could also demonstrate that it was a serious country, worthy of respectful intercourse with other nations. He also recognized the dangers that persecuting Tories, particularly those in New York who possessed a great deal of intellectual capital, posed to both the young nation and to the city that sought what Hamilton saw as its rightful place as the leading commercial center.
At the heart of the Rutgers’ case was New York’s Loyalist code, a set of laws enacted to punish leading Loyalists and coerce others into supporting the Patriot cause. Loyalists were subject to many legal penalties and among them were the provisions found in the state’s Trespass Act, which allowed Patriots to sue loyalists who had used their property during the war for back rent thus sweeping aside standard common law defenses that might otherwise have protected Loyalists who had complied with the rule of the lawful British authorities at the time. While the law had not been enacted in 1783 it was given retroactive effect.
With New York’s law heavily stacked against his client, Hoffer writes that Hamilton chose to make the case about the nature of the confederation and the future of the union. He eschewed pursuit of a legal tactic that might have protected his client but would not have afforded him the opportunity to use the case of a large project of rehabilitating loyalists into New York’s political life. In Rutgers Hoffer detects a larger pattern in Hamilton’s legal practice in which he was already creating an intellectual framework for “a strong national government behind which stood men of property; an orderly and sound world …”
Law in Colonial America was much different in form and practice from today, and even a reader with legal training today would likely have great difficulty following many of aspects of colonial cases. The relationships between colonial state law, the common law, English law, international law and even the law of nature were unclear. This gave lawyers who had thought deeply on the nature of law and government, such as Hamilton, additional angles to argue, and their clients an edge. Fortunately, Hoffer has authored numerous books on colonial legal history and some of its most important cases. He is a sure footed guide, keeping his reader from getting confused by the arcane aspects of a bygone era when law was separate from equity and “form pleading,” the bane of a sloppy lawyer and his poor client. Where the record is incomplete, as is often the case from that period, Hoffer speculates intelligently on what likely occurred and why.
At only 130 pages of text, however, Rutgers v. Waddington must assume a fair amount of knowledge about the Revolution in general, and Alexander Hamilton in particular. An academic work, the prose is clear but spare. No one would confuse Hoffer with a David McCullough or Ron Chernow. A more detailed examination of some points, such as the tiny, cliquish nature of New York’s bar, go largely unexplored and would have added another dimension to understanding the personal dynamics involved. Moving much of the information in the final chapter regarding Hamilton and the nature of his enterprise forward would have helped break up some of the more dense legal discussion and propelled the story’s narrative.
Yet, Hoffers’ readers will come away with an expanded understanding of the Revolution from a legal standpoint, a deeper appreciation for the bitterness between Patriots and Loyalists, and the extent to which the New York community struggled with reconciliation (and the vital role law played in it). Livingstons, Schuylers, DeLanceys all make an appearance. James Duane plays an important role in the story as mayor and judge. Those interested in Hamilton will gain insight into the important but lesser examined period of his life between the Revolution and Treasury through which we can gain a glimpse into the development of his thinking that would shape his approach towards creating a new government and as its first Treasury Secretary. For the relatively small investment of time, Rutgers v. Waddington is therefore highly rewarding.
From their correspondence, it appears Rutgers would ultimate seek around $8,000, or roughly ten times what Waddington had offered in settlement.
In one of these roles, he would accompany Alexander Hamilton to the Annapolis Convention that initiated the call for the Philadelphia convention that would ultimately draft the Constitution. He would also be a member of the New York Convention that ratified the US Constitution. Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia, s.v. “Egbert Benson,” (accessed February 22, 2016), https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egbert_Benson.
Apologies to Lin Manual Miranda.
Among those portrayed despite not appearing for either party in Rutgers is Hamilton’s nemesis Aaron Burr. Burr was among the leading members of the postwar bar, who had made representation of Patriots in such cases an important part of his practice. Despite benefitting from this law, though, Hamilton worked for its repeal as contrary to the public interest. Hoffer, Rutgers v. Waddington, 99.
Francis Paschal, “The Law Practice of Alexander Hamilton, edited by Julius Goebel, Jr.,” Indiana Law Journal: Vol. 40: Iss. 4, Article 7 (1965): 603, accessed February 19, 2016, http://www.repository.law.indiana.edu/ilj/vol40/iss4/7). It was not the Loyalists themselves he was trying to protect, but the establishment of their property rights, which he saw as a vital part of rebuilding New York’s economy. Hoffer, Rutgers v, Waddington, 99.
Hamilton’s practice was lucrative, but his fees were not nearly what he could have charged. He tried to dissuade litigation and would not accept fees larger than he believed warranted even though as a member of a very small bar (around 40) he could have easily obtained them. See Ron Chernow, Alexander Hamilton (New York, Penguin Press, 2004), 188. The Rutgers case only netted him nine pounds, but opened his door to many more Trespass Act cases. Hoffer, Rutgers v. Waddington, 97.
Hoffer, Rutgers v. Waddington, 23.
Specifically, he might have removed the case to the chancellor’s court, presided over by the sympathetic Robert Livingston and where rules of equity, or fairness, would have governed rather than the outcome rather than the Trespass Act. Hamilton had written such a motion, but never filed it with the court. Ibid., 58, 64.
Ibid., 63
For instance, he discusses a related pamphlet exchange in which Hamilton lays out his understanding of the Tories’ place in society under the name Phocion, which drew a contrary response from Mentor. For many years historians thought Mentor might be a local physician, but Hoffer makes an interesting case that Aaron Burr might have been the author.

CM Lays Foundation Stone of Shahkam Flyover, Lahore Projects
Sardar Usman Buzdar, chief minister of Punjab, lay the foundation stone for the signal-free Shahkam Chowk flyover project, valued at Rs 4.23 billion, to facilitate the daily flow of 1.25 million cars.
The 606-meter-long, two-sided, three-lanes-per-side project would be completed in ten months, while land acquisition and open bidding saved Rs 395 million.
Under the project, a 6-kilometer-long defensive road will be dualized from labour colony to Multan Road, and two minor bridges will be constructed at the Hudiara Drain and canal.
In the meanwhile, he stated that three parking lots were being constructed at Sheranwala Gate, Masti Gate, and Ek Moriya Pul to accommodate over one thousand automobiles.
The prime minister announced the establishment of a network of shelter homes and almshouses to accommodate the unattended elements of society, as well as the recruitment of 10,000 police officers and the deployment of 600 new cars.
He remarked that it is gratifying that the Lahore police have concluded all high-profile cases in record time and that the CTD headquarters project has been finished by the PTI-led administration.
The government has increased the development budget by 66 percent, the health budget by 185 percent, the higher education budget by 286 percent, the school education budget by 29 percent, the agriculture budget by 306 percent, and the industries budget by 307 percent, while recovering PRA’s dues by 24.7 percent more.

Haskayne researcher advocates for ninja training to help leaders deal with real-world complexities
The legendary Japanese ninja stayed calm and effective while dealing with fast-moving dangers, constant change and life-threatening scenarios. Taking inspiration from this, a Haskayne School of Business researcher is now advocating for MBA students to learn ninja philosophy to deal with the complexities they may face in the business world.
Dr. Julian Norris, PhD'09, an instructor in the Haskayne School of Business, says learning how to keep "ninja-cool" in stressful situations is an important skill for business leaders. In the first published paper discussing ninja training in management education, Norris describes how the learning needed for complexity leadership may require deep shifts in worldview that can be aided by transformative experiences that incorporate the body and not just the mind. The article, “Ninja Training Meets Management Education: Integrating Taijutsu into an MBA Complexity Leadership Course,” appears in the Journal of Management Education.
While scholars agree that leaders need humility, courage and tolerance for uncertainty in order to best deal with complex situations, there is no agreement on how best to cultivate these qualities in MBA students. Exploring concepts from taijutsu — literally “body technique” — is one way to address this “core challenge,” Norris says.
“You don't have access to the full range of your most skillful self under all circumstances, and perhaps when you most need it,” says Norris. “Imagine you are faced with cascading complexity and stress and anxious employees. You may need to be at your best, but your reactive self may actually be at its worst in those moments.”
Bringing leadership skills to bear in a tense situation is something Norris likens to the difference between singing along to a song while alone your car and having to perform the song in Carnegie Hall with “a thousand stern faces gazing up at you.” While you can easily belt out the song in private, on stage your body would tense up, your heart would pound and your voice would squeak. “You'd be completely unable to do this thing that, under another circumstance, you could do perfectly well,” he says.
Moving from the metaphorical stage to the classroom, Norris argues that exploring the power of taijutsu is one way to help students become more self-aware, less reactive and more conscious. “We are finding embodied ways to draw from martial arts traditions to help prepare a generation of leaders who can really thrive in high-stakes, complex environments, make wise decisions and bring their most skillful selves — the full spectrum of their intelligence — to bear when they most need it.”

Straight-up force or power can be of little use in these scenarios. Rather, a leader needs to understand the dynamics and dig deep for the skills to deal with the situation. “The complexity which characterizes so much of our world is all about relational dynamics, about the connections between things, and being aware of those and moving skillfully with them,” Norris says.
Norris’ research explores several martial arts training drills that have been used in class for students to practise handling difficult situations. While not advocating that educators necessarily replicate the drills, Norris argues ninja training is one way of answering some of the big questions facing management education today.
“How do you go about cultivating curiosity and humility?” he says. “How do you teach people to access a flow state in which they're way more productive and able to adapt nimbly to rapidly changing circumstances? How do we educate people for the reality of the world and decision-making in very high-stakes situations? How do we give them not only the cognitive tools, but the capabilities that make those cognitive tools and skills come alive?”

If you’ve suffered from a personal injury due to a trip and fall accident, often the last thing on your mind is pursuing legal action. You might want to forget the whole thing, or you’re simply focused on recovering from your injuries.
Accidents are always a shock, and sometimes embarrassing. This makes it easy to overlook any responsibility on another’s part. A trip and fall case is especially tricky as there’s usually no second party present to blame.
But if you’ve suffered from a personal injury in any way, and it wasn’t your fault, you should be compensated! This time can be stressful and confusing, but if you act quickly in seeking an accident lawyer, you’ll be way more likely to get the compensation you deserve.
Why do you need an accident lawyer?
Be taken seriously
If you try to take on your case yourself, you’re putting yourself in a vulnerable position. It’s important to remember that you’re going up against an insurance company, not just against the business or property owner. If you’re unrepresented, an insurance company is highly unlikely to accept liability. They’re likely to assume that you don’t take your case seriously, and that the case itself is weak.
A trip and fall lawyer will automatically draw respect from the insurance company and allow a much smoother channel of communication. Having a professional represent you and your case will put you in a much stronger position.
It may seem like the easiest solution to simply represent yourself, but it’s pretty much impossible to be objective when you’ve been personally affected. Emotions can run high, and as neutral as you think you could be, it’s easier said than done.
Without an objective party on your side, you could seriously hinder your case. Why run the risk? An accident lawyer will give you objective and professional representation, saving you a lot of stress and hassle, and getting you the best possible outcome.
Without legal representation for your trip and fall case, you leave yourself in an easy position to be looked over. Insurance companies are likely to delay your case by being slow to respond and taking advantage of your lack of legal support.
Our accident lawyers know the ins and outs of trip and fall cases. They know the best ways to move things forward and how to avoid any unnecessary, and sometimes deliberate, delays.
Finding a knowledgeable and reliable accident lawyer is vital when you’ve suffered from a trip or fall that caused you a personal injury. We provide the support and care that you deserve during such a stressful and complicated time.
Don’t try to take it all on yourself, it will only cause you more stress and prevent you from receiving the compensation that’s rightfully yours.
We’re here for you!

HRH Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Bin Abdulaziz Alsaud, Chairman of Kingdom Holding Company (KHC) and HH Princess Ameerah Al-Taweel, Vice Chairwoman of Alwaleed Bin Talal Foundation received Ambassador Stephen A. Seche, Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for the Arabian Gulf in the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs at his office in Riyadh on Tuesday 18th October 2011. The meeting was also attended by Mr. Shadi Sanbar, KHC’s CFO, Ms. Nada Al Sugair, Executive Director, Finance and Administration, Mr. Mohamed Al Mujadidi, Senior Executive Manager, HRH the Chairman’s office, Ms. Heba Fatani, Senior Executive Manager, Corporate Communications and Dr. Nahla Alanbar, Private Executive Assistant to HRH the Chairman.
During their meeting HRH and Mr. Seche discussed business and economic issues, and the current status of the global economy. They also discussed Prince Alwaleed’s investments in the US in light of being one of the largest foreign investor there.
Also on the agenda of discussions during the meeting were women’s empowerment and Alwaleed Bin Talal Foundation’s role in supporting this initiative. Moreover, the discussions revolved around the University Centers funded by Alwaleed Bin Talal Foundation in the US for bridging the gap between East and West. These include a $20 million donation to Harvard University to create the University-wide Islamic Studies Program and $20 million donation to Georgetown University to create the Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding both supported in 2005. In addition 2004, Alwaleed Foundation also made a $5 million donation to establish the Center for American Studies and Research (CASAR) at the American University in Beirut (AUB) and donated $10 million to finance both the construction of the Humanities and Social Sciences (HUSS) building in the new campus of the American University in Cairo (AUC).
Recently, HRH received and held a dinner in honor of Mr. Larry Summers, Former Secretary of the Treasury of the United States and Former Director of the White House, United States National Economic Council for President Barack Obama. The meeting was also attended by Mr. Alberto Verme, CEO of Europe, Middle East, and Africa, Citigroup.
In May 2011, Prince Alwaleed was on a trip to the United States of America and during his visit to New York he met with Mr. Michael Bloomberg, Mayor of the City of New York and Founder of Bloomberg at the New York City Hall. Prince Alwaleed also attended the 15th Microsoft CEO Summit held at the Microsoft Conference. HRH’s visit was in response to an invitation from Mr. Bill Gates, Chairman of Microsoft to attend the event. During the same trip Prince Alwaleed granted interviews to prominent US media entities to discuss various topics such as his investments, the current status of the global economy and the Middle East.
HRH has significant investments in the US in the financial sector via Citigroup, in the media and entertainment sector through News Corporation, in the hotel sector through the Fairmont New York Plaza one of New York’s most distinctive landmarks, Four Seasons hotel via the management of Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts in which KHC hold a 47.5% interest, and in retail via SAKS Fifth Avenue.
Prince Alwaleed first invested in Citigroup in 1991, and is the largest single shareholder in Citigroup. In January 2008, Prince Alwaleed privately participated in a $12.5 billion private offering of convertible preferred securities of Citigroup. The direct investment was made alongside an exclusive group of leading international investors. The Prince converted the preferred shares in 2009 into common shares (voting shares) at $3.25 per share (32.50 after 10:1 reverse stock split).
HRH is the second largest shareholder in News Corp and also the beneficial owner of approximately 7 percent of News Corporation’s Class B Common Stock. The New York Plaza that is owned 50% by HRH through KHC underwent a $400 million renovation and reopened a few years ago. The hotel is managed by Fairmont Raffles Hotels International (FRHI) in which KHC holds a 35% interest.

Picture Story: United States
Josephine, on the left, is from the small fishing village of Togiak, Alaska, in the United States. Her first contact with Adventists was several years ago when she attended a Vacation Bible School (VBS) program. She was reluctant to go, but a friend’s persistence won her over. There she met Global Mission pioneer couple Chad and Liz. “I could feel their love for people the second I walked into the room,” she says. “Meeting them changed my life.” Chad and Liz shared Jesus’ love with Josephine even after VBS ended. They studied the Bible together, and Josephine decided to be baptized. “I’d never known love like this before,” she explains. “It was like someone had wrapped my shivering body in a big, warm blanket.” With Chad’s encouragement, Josephine became a counselor at Camp Polaris, a remote Adventist mission camp not far from her home. “I love working with children,” she says, smiling. “Now it’s my turn to wrap others in a warm blanket of love. It’s what I want to do for the rest of my life. Global Mission pioneers make a difference every day in the lives of young people like Josephine and inspire them to find God’s will for their lives.

The hours that the daycare provides are amazing! The location is very convenient as it is right off the interstate! In addition to daily care, they also provide a few extras, such as activities for the kids and date nights for the parents. The infant classes do a lot of art activities and I look forward to all the activities the daycare provides that my child can participate in as they get older.
One aspect my husband and I really enjoy is getting our child’s daily classroom sheet. It includes all of the bottles/food, diaper changes, and naps from throughout the day. It really helps us know what to expect once we get home. The teachers are very attentive and notice immediately if our child seems like they aren’t feeling well or didn’t sleep well. It’s great having our child surrounded by people that really care about him!

House Backs Ending US Support for Saudis in Yemen War
The Democratic-led U.S. House of Representatives on Wednesday approved a resolution that would end U.S. support for the Saudi Arabia-led coalition in the war in Yemen, as many lawmakers sought to push President Donald
Trump to toughen his policy toward the kingdom.
The 248-177 vote would not be enough, however, to overcome Trump's promised veto of the war powers resolution.
Democrats and Republicans reintroduced the war powers resolution two weeks ago as a way to send a strong message to Riyadh about the humanitarian disaster in Yemen and condemn the killing of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
The administration — and many of Trump's fellow Republicans in Congress — said the resolution was inappropriate because U.S. forces had provided aircraft refueling and other support in the Yemen conflict, not combat troops. It also said the measure would harm relationships in the region and hurt the U.S. ability to prevent the spread of violent extremism.
The Senate is expected to vote on the resolution within 30 days.
A previous version of the resolution passed the Senate by 56-41 in December. But it was not brought up for a vote in the House, where Republicans held a majority until Democrats took control Jan. 3, following sweeping victories in November's elections.
The United States has supported the Saudi-led air campaign against Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen with midair refueling, intelligence and targeting assistance.
December's Senate vote was the first time either chamber of Congress backed a resolution to withdraw U.S. forces from a military engagement under the War Powers Act. That law, passed in 1973, limits the president's ability to commit U.S. forces to potential hostilities without congressional approval.

Millions of people across Afghanistan continue to suffer for lack of basics, a
breakdown of infrastructure along with widespread hunger and disease.
The risk of Cholera and other contagious diseases, and the increasing
reach of famine threatens to undermine the basic well-being of generations
Add to that, the plight of women who have seen opportunities dwindle and
basic rights reduced to a limited indoor domestic subsistence. Across the
cities women & girls are unable to go to school and work which in turn has
decimated the role of NGOs who have had a major role in providing badly
needed help to Afghan people – all of which exacerbates the nation’s
Afghanistan’s literacy rate at the height of the US occupation was just over
50% for men and just under 30% for women. Today those rates have
plummeted while families endure starvation, unemployment and lack of
access to schools and jobs. Upwards of 90% of the Afghan population now
subsist below the poverty line, and according to a report by UNDP, those
numbers has risen to 97% by the end of 2022.
As a part of our commitment to offer educational resources to people
across Afghanistan we’ve partnered with ‘Herat Online School’, a UK-
based social impact nonprofit with the mission of empowering Afghan youth
through education. Formed by Angela Ghayour in response to Taliban’s
ban on girls’ education upon takeover of Afghanistan, ‘Herat Online School’
has set out to create equity in educational opportunity, encourage critical
thinking, and build capacity for Afghan youth to take control of their future.
We at ‘A More Balanced World’ consider this kind of partnerships as central
to the goal of expanding the spirit of a more just world and look forward to
collaborations at multiple levels between the two entities.

The Economic Times published a list of India’s fifty most valuable brands last month, based on data organized by UK based Brand Finance. The top rank was won again by Reliance Industries. India’s government-sponsored bank rose three ranks to become #2, its conservative financial policies and its wide reach in India are important factors, as is a top leadership team that is visionary; the State Bank of India is traded on the London and Mumbai stock exchanges but most of its shares are owned by the government. The third most valuable company is also state-run: Indian Oil Corporation. Employing over 100,000 Indians, IT outsourcer Tata Consultancy Services ranks fourth. Its sibling in the automotive business rose a notch on the heels of the Nano car. Tata Motors is ranked fifth.

Amsterdam Tram 2 Map – GVB Lijn 2 Lijnkaart – 2019
Amsterdam Tram 2 – Tram 2 follows the same route as Tram 12, but heads to Amsterdam South after Rijksmuseum stop. It is very similar to Tram 12 for the tourist as Tram 2 & Tram 12 follow the same path from Centraal Station to the Museums. Tram 2 does not stop at Museumplein or Concertgebouw, but stops at a station very close to it (Van Baerlestraat). VondelPark is on the Tram 2 route.
Sites: Centraal Station, Dam Square, Palace, Spui, Flower Market, Leidseplein, Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum, Museumplein & Concertgebouw with a short walk of less than 1km, Vondelpark
Comments: Very similar to Tram 12. Heads out to the suburbs after the stop between the Rijksmuseum and Concertgebouw.
Dutch Food To Try – Frites met Saus – Frites, or french fries, are everywhere in the Netherlands.
What differs is the amount of sauces that are available to dip your fries in. At Manneken Pis frite shop on Dam across from the Grasshopper has 20+ sauces. Try samurai, or my favorite, cheddar cheese which is not the cheese wi you may think it is when you see it. If you really want o go Dutch, ask for onions, uien(Ow-when) on top.

Earlier this month Google announced that the TF Object Detection API (OD API) officially supports TensorFlow 2. This comes as the tech giant has been working on making the TF ecosystem more compatible with frequently used models and libraries.
The company has been migrating TF Object Detection API models to be TensorFlow 2 compatible since a year, which was evident in the Object Detection API GitHub repository, since the last few months.
Google announced that it would include the following:
- Eager-mode compatible binaries
- A Keras-based suite of TF2 compatible models and new architectures such as CenterNet and EfficientDet
- COCO pre-trained weights for all of the models provided as TF2 style object-based checkpoints
- Access to DistributionStrategies for distributed training
- Colab demonstrations of eager mode compatible few-shot training and inference
- Support for keypoint estimation, data augmentation support, better visualizations, COCO evaluation
The company highlighted that this move aims at exposing users to the benefits of TF2 and Keras while being able to use TF1. “We believe that there might be many teams out there grappling with similar migration projects, so we thought that a few words about our thought process and approach here might be useful even for non-object-detection TensorFlow users,” it said.
With this, there are three kinds of users in the codebase — new users, existing TF1 users who want to migrate to TF2 and existing TF1 users who do not want to migrate just yet.
Google also shared a detailed strategy about how it aims to benefit all three categories of users. It said it would refactor low-level core and meta-architecture to work in both TF1 and TF2, treat feature extractors/backbones as being specific to either TF1 or TF2, leverage community-maintained existing backbone implementations, separate front-end binaries for TF1 and TF2, and more.
The company plans to continue to migrate large-scale codebases from TF1 to TF2 over the next few months. It also plans to offer a more integrated, end-to-end experience for researchers in the TF2 ecosystem.
TF2 which was released in September 2019 has brought about many changes such as adopting Keras as the official high-level API for defining models.

Amenhotep IV, also known as Akhenaten, was the 12th pharaoh of the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt and the son of Amenhotep III and Queen Tiye. He ruled from approximately 1353 to 1336 BCE and was one of the most controversial pharaohs of ancient Egypt.
During his reign, Amenhotep IV introduced a new religion and artistic style that would come to be famous as the Amarna Period. He abandoned traditional Egyptian polytheism and introduced monotheism, worshiping the sun disk Aten as the sole deity. This new religion had a profound impact on Egyptian society and art, as Aten became the central focus of religious and cultural life.
Amenhotep IV also commissioned several major building projects, including the construction of a new capital city called Akhetaten, located in the eastern desert. The city was designed to reflect the worship of Aten, with temples, palaces, and other buildings oriented towards the sun. He also commissioned the construction of several other important buildings and monuments throughout Egypt.
Despite his achievements, Amenhotep IV’s reign is also famous for its controversy and instability. He had several wives and children, including the famous Nefertiti, and his policies were often seen as disruptive and divisive. He also faced several challenges to his authority, including rebellions in Nubia and the Levant.
After his death, Amenhotep IV’s reign came to an end and his son, Tutankhamun, took the throne. Amenhotep IV’s legacy as a pharaoh is one of both controversy and innovation. His introduction of monotheism and new artistic style marked a significant departure from traditional Egyptian religion. And culture, and his building projects left a lasting impact on the landscape of ancient Egypt.

With the increase in demand for SEO services, SEO companies across the globe started to grow in number. You can virtually find them just about every country in the world. The question is, does your business really need the help of an SEO Company?
Search Engine Optimization is popular among various businesses. With almost a quarter of the total global sales attributed to online marketing, who would not care? Its power and role in the marketing campaign is evidently important, especially to companies that are incapable of physical expansion. Internet presents them an opportunity to expand with a minimal cost. For these reasons, SEO now holds a more significant role in boosting a company’s revenue.
SEO services are typically outsourced from developing nations like the Philippines and India. While majority of search engine optimization can be done at home by a knowledgeable webmaster, it is rare that you find freelance SEOs who work at home with reliable SEO qualifications. The need for an affordable SEO company has driven most western companies to embrace outsourcing SEO offshore.
It is true that search engine optimization need not be overly complicated like many companies make you believe but there are certain circumstances where the help of a search engine optimization company becomes indispensable. Here are some of the instances where it is advisable to seek the help of an SEO company:
Your business requires your full attention and you don’t have time to monitor your own website statistics.
Companies and businesses who don’t have qualified employees to perform the required search engine optimization. It is always preferable to hire experts over going through the learning process and do SEO yourself.
When after your efforts to optimize your website, you do not get any substantial improvements in your ranking and traffic, you need to get help from experts. An SEO firm can help introduce innovative SEO strategies that you might have not used yet. Moreover, companies that specializes on SEO have more resources to do the job.
Outsourcing SEO and choosing the right company to work with needs careful planning. You do not want to end up with companies employing all sorts of shady strategies that will harm your website. What you want and what you need is a qualified SEO company that can deliver results through professional and ethical SEO strategies. So to help you choose a good SEO provider, here are a few things to be wary about:
Companies that guarantee top rankings for your website. The truth is, no one can guarantee top placement on search engines. SEo companies employ strategies that are proven to have worked. Search engine algorithms are highly classified.
Choose SEO companies that are honest, upfront and realistic. It doesn’t mean the company is good when they charge high fee on their SEO services. There are a lot of SEO companies offshore that can deliver results for half the cost. You jus have to be patient in searching.
Choose SEO companies that offer scheduled reporting. Choose companies with complete contact information.
Your SEO company should regularly contact you and should constantly find new ways to achieve the best result for your website. They should be innovative yet ethical in their SEO practices.

Jesus Came to Save Sinners (MP3 CD)
A thorough message of salvation by faith in Christ, by the “prince of preachers, Charles H. Spurgeon.
Share this product
Format: Audiobook MP3 CD (1 CD)
This is a heart-level conversation with you, the reader. Every excuse, reason, and roadblock for not coming to Christ is examined and duly dealt with. If you think you may be too bad, or if perhaps you really are bad and you sin either openly or behind closed doors, you will discover that life in Christ is for you too. You can reject the message of salvation by faith, or you can choose to live a life of sin after professing faith in Christ, but you cannot change the truth as it is, either for yourself or for others. As such, it behooves you and your family to embrace truth, claim it for your own, and be genuinely set free for now and eternity. Come and embrace this free gift of God, and live a victorious life for Him.

Caitlin is super cute and sweet and her mom is too. I think it’s great how she can’t stop smiling even when you ask her to! She is a student at Eau Gallie HS and just got accepted to FSU so big congrats there! She wants to be a math teacher! We shot the session in downtown Melbourne. I’ve been hoping to set up a fun package for senior girls and team up with one of my favorite shops down there. If you agree then you might want to call DD and tell them! How FUN would it be to have a new outfit included in your package, borrow all the accessories we want and possibly be in some of the DD advertising? Call. Now. Request this awesomeness. But only with AGP of course. Anyone else would just be a copy cat.
We had Caitlin’s ordering session tonight so her and her parents got to view everything in her gallery up on the wall of my studio, go through and pick favorites, etc. They did a great job, what a decisive family! I had already picked MY faves, not that MY FAVES are always YOURS. But it’s okay and I’m not bitter. Not really.
Okay here is beautiful Caitlin, I am going to stop talking…
Yes this is what you call a moving train behind her. It is pretty stinking awesome if I do say so myself.
LOVE THESE AND YOU MUST LOVE THEM TOO!!! YOU BETTER OR ELSE I’M GOING TO BE SOOOO MAD! JUST KIDDING, BUT REALLY DON’T YOU LOVE THEM?

Confession: When I was somewhere north of 20 years old, I was on a beach somewhere in Virginia, attempting to explain to my brother and sister-in-law why it was so weird that the University of Michigan's mascot was the wolverine. It was like having a unicorn for a mascot, I said. Or a jackalope -- that mythical half-rabbit/half-antelope that adorns stupid postcards in the West. They weren't getting it and kept on insisting it really wasn't like that at all. Finally, I had to ask point-blank: Were they saying that wolverines were ... real?
It turns out that wolverines are real. I did not know this; I had never encountered a wolverine apart from the pages of comic books. I assumed that Wolverine was his own thing -- some half-man/half-wolf hybrid that somehow missed the werewolf title in a smart rebranding move.
So you have to believe me when I tell you that dire wolves are real and not another imaginary creature from George R.R. Martin. But here's a twist: They don't exist. The dire wolf once wandered through North and South America roughly 12,000 to 300,000 years ago during the Late Pleistocene era [source: San Diego Zoo].
Dire wolves looked quite a bit like wolves, although they were nearly a quarter heavier than the modern grey wolf [source: Narducci]. They also had larger heads and shorter, stouter legs than the not-as-big-and-bad wolves we know today. More importantly the dire wolf's reputation was its teeth, which were much bigger. Scientists believe that dire wolves used their enormous chompers to crush the bones of their dinner, as fossilized dire wolf teeth exhibit a pattern of wear that's consistent with bone chewing. Due to its gnawing, it is thought to have hunted and fed in a similar way to the hyena. These guys weren't just satisfied with the flesh: They were ready to bolt down the marrow and bone too [source: Illinois State Museum].
Scientists think that dire wolves fed on the large herbivores that proliferated at the end of the Ice Age. When the late Pleistocene extinction wiped out large numbers of these herbivores, it's possible that the dire wolf no longer had a reliable food source. But we can't say that with much certainty; as with many extinctions, no one is entirely sure what led to the dire wolf's ultimate demise [source: Illinois State Museum].
But cheer up: If you're dying to have your own dire wolf, the American Alsatian Breeder's Association is right there with you. They've been breeding some Alsatians to resemble the dire wolf's broader head, shorter legs and bigger body. Their furry friends aren't quite as big at around 130 pounds. Remember, these pups are in no way genetically related to the real dire wolves. But they're probably a lot friendlier -- and far less likely to crush your skull and eat it [source: Edidin].

Disney animators set pictures to Western classical music as Leopold Stokowski conducts the Philadelphia Orchestra. “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” features Mickey Mouse as an aspiring magician who oversteps his limits. “The Rite of Spring” tells the story of evolution, from single-celled animals to the death of the dinosaurs. “Dance of the Hours” is a comic ballet performed by ostriches, hippos, elephants, and alligators. “Night on Bald Mountain” and “Ave Maria” set the forces of darkness and light against each other as a devilish revel is interrupted by the coming of a new day.

"Well do you at least know the neighborhood she lives in?" Ayame pressed, his hands splashed against the low table as his loosely braided hair hung over his shoulder.
Shigure took a sip of his tea after he shook his head no. He knew that Ayame's passionate entrance earlier had probably woken up the rest of the house. Those lazy bones were still asleep. Though the fact that it was still summer vacation explained why that was, Shigure had expected that at least Tohru would have been up. She was usually such a dedicated girl that Shigure had forgotten what it was like to wake up and there not to be breakfast waiting for him. Not that Ayame seemed to mind the fact that there was nothing to eat at the moment. He was more fixated on his current topic.
"What do you know?" Ayame stressed his question as he leaned forward, trying to peer into Shigure's soul.
Shigure sat down his cup and let out a deep breath. It carried with it a ring of sadness. The slightly older one of the two knew that he didn't have many answers to the many questions that the both had.
"I know that she's been back in Japan since last December."
"But that was so long ago! I can't believe you hid her for that long! From me! When were you planning on telling me?"
There was a guilty look on Shigure's face as he leaned away from Ayame with his hands up. "Calm down, I only found her over a month ago. It's not like I was intentionally hiding her. But you know how it is, one thing just lead to another and with Hari's constant warnings I forgot to tell you."
The look on Ayame's face let Shigure know that he said something wrong. As did the way that Ayame continued to lean over the table. The only issue was that Shigure had no idea what he said that Ayame took so personally.
"Hatori knows but you didn't think to tell me?!"
Shigure chuckled nervously as he tried to move away from Ayame. His white haired friend was very passionate about this subject. Not that Shigure could blame him. He had been upset when he found out that Yuki went to see you without him. Shigure supposed that Ayame felt the same way now. Possibly even worse considering the fact that at least Shigure had known that you were back for a while. Ayame hadn't even had that much.
"Well then, that settles it," Ayame said dramatically as he leaned back to sit down properly.
"Settles what?" Shigure blinked owlishly.
"When Anita moves in with me you're not allowed over."
At that moment Shigure both wanted to smile at his friend's reaction and frown. It was amusing that Ayame decided that he needed to be punished. Normally they got along so well that nothing could divide them. So the idea of him using seclusion was amusing. On the other hand...
"Who said she would move in with you?" Shigure asked with a fairly casual tone. "Don't you live with Mine above your shop? What do you think both girls will think about that?"
Ayame went uncharacteristically quiet at that moment. It's what let Shigure know that he probably just made the situation worse. He knew that Ayame truly cared for his assistant and house Mine. He also knew that while Ayame was bold he wasn't stupid. They both knew what living with you would eventually lead to. And Ayame, especially, would never degrade you or Mine that way. So while most people might take Ayame's silence as a sign of victory, Shigure did not.
With you they could live a relatively normal life. And for a while that what they had both intended to do. Of course the whole sharing aspect might have been socially unacceptable to most people but at the point the had decided to do that, Shigure and Ayame had been used to sharing everything regardlessly. They had even planned how to explain why you would be seen out with either of them at any given time. Considering that most people mistook Ayame for being foreign because of his coloration they would have told people that you and he were siblings. With a family that could produce someone with white hair and gold eyes, anything seemed possible.
All of that planning had been before you left Japan of course. You had been gone for a decade. Both he and Ayame had been forced to move on. While Shigure had moved out of the estate and made a living as a writer, Ayame had stayed on the estate until he saved up enough to own his own shop. Eventually he put out an advert for help. And that was how he met Mine. Shigure had watched how close those two had gotten over the years. If it wasn't for the curse, Ayame May have even asked her to marry him. And if Kyo ever broke the curse that could probably still happen. But that was a big "if". Meanwhile neither of them needed Kyo to break the curse in order to have a full relationship with you. It was just that for Ayame that meant possibly losing someone he had grown to love while you were away.
Shigure truly felt for his friend's situation and the hard choices ahead of him. It was one of the reasons he hadn't told Ayame that you were back right away. He hadn't wanted to put his friend into that situation. But now he had by reminding him of the reality in his situation. He felt bad about it. And yet the selfish side of him, the one who wanted to be the only one in your life, rejoiced at the idea.
Shigure quickly wiped the gloomy look off his face as Tohru stood near the open door of the room. He smiled at her though he knew that Ayame had yet to muster the zeal to do the same.
"Hatori was on the phone. He wanted you to give him a call back soon."
"Did he tell you what he needed to talk about?"
It was unlikely that he did if it was a private matter. Especially if it had to do with the family. But if it was just about a routine check up, Shigure was going to avoid that call. He hated getting a check up. All of the instruments were always so cold.
Tohru shook her head. Her cute little working girl braids tossing about her head. "He said to mention Anita's name and..."
He was up and moving out of the room before Tohru could finish her sentence.
"...you'd run to the phone to call him back."

Marjorie Merriweather Post grew up in Battle Creek, Michigan, and was the daughter of Ella Merriweather Post and Charles William Post of the Post Cereal empire. Throughout her life and privileged travels, she collected objects, works of art, literature, and other objets d’arts worldwide. Here collection includes a vast number of Faberge eggs and the most extensive collection of Russian Imperial era works of art outside of Russia. These are now on display at her former home, Hillwood Estate, Museum, and Gardens. With the hope of collecting beautiful objects and creating enchanting gardens that would one day be displayed and enjoyed by the public, Ms. Post created an enduring legacy of natural beauty, history, and cultural exchange. We very much appreciated her collection on our inaugural visit to Washington D.C.
Hillwood Estate, Museum & Gardens

Address:4155 Linnean Avenue,
NW Washington, DC 20008
Admission: Purchase timed tickets here

Parking: Free parking on site
Handicap Accessible: No
Reservations are currently required to visit the estate & garden, and there are separate tickets for the mansion and gardens. We decided to stay here on a whim, and thankfully we could get in to see the gardens, but tickets for the manor were sold out for the day. I’d love to one day come back and see the entire property, but for now, I loved seeing the distinct gardens on the 25-acre estate, including the French knot garden shown above, the lunar garden, a Japanese-inspired garden, and an extensive rose garden.
The property also had a rather large glasshouse greenhouse with a vast array of colorful orchids, including several rare and challenging to cultivate varieties. I adore visiting gardens, and as you may have noticed, I make it a point to see at least one garden in each major city we visit. Hillwood Estate, Museum, and Gardens had one of the most lovely gardens we’ve visited in recent memory. There was even a cutting garden near the glasshouse, which the estate caretakers regularly take from to create floral arrangements displayed within the mansion.
Our experience here was lovely, and we enjoyed strolling the grounds, taking in nature, and admiring the gardeners’ expertise in crafting intricate floral and shrubbery displays. A giant topiary designed by the property’s gardeners was made from Ivy from Buckingham Palace in London, England, which was quite impressive. Parking was a breeze, and everything was easily walkable. We spent about 3 hours here and had an incredible time. If you love gardens, Hillwood Estate, Museum and Gardens is undoubtedly a must-visit in Washington, D.C.!

Palm Beach Kennel Club is no stranger to major tournament events, having hosted the only World Series of Poker Circuit stops in Florida, and now hosting two of them a year. Come December, the venue will host the third Ante Up Poker Tour series in Florida in two months.
“The World Series of Poker Circuit events have taught us many things and, along with our own experiences, we have learned to create a good mixture of chip stacks and structures for a truly competitive tournament,” said Tim Wright, poker room manager at Palm Beach Kennel Club in West Palm Beach, Fla.
The Ante Up Poker Tour event will run Dec. 11-14 and feature three official events and two others, capped by $575 buy-in main event with three starting flights and a $100K guarantee. The winner also will appear on the cover of the February issue of Ante Up, get a $1,650 seat in the 2015 Ante Up World Championship Main Event at Thunder Valley Casino Resort in California and a personalized tour champion’s jacket.
“We have always been a leader in the guaranteed tournament business and any big event like the Ante Up series should include one,” Wright said.
The rest of the schedule includes a $135 no-limit event, two nightly $135 no-limit tournaments and a $30 buy-in event with $20 rebuys that features a $10K guarantee.
“We have been running this $10K guaranteed tournament every Friday night for several years,” Wright said. “It is so popular we often include it in tournament series for continuity. The prize pool often exceeds the $10K.”
When not playing tournaments, players have a wide variety of cash games to choose from, including $1-$2 and $2-$5 no-limit hold’em, $2-$2 and $2-4 limit hold’em, $2-$5 pot-limit Omaha/8 and $1-$3 stud. Another unique offering is “Florida style” $5-$10 no-limit with a $100-$300 buy-in, which harkens back to when Florida law allowed for only a $100 max buy-in. These days, players may buy in for any amount they desire and players wishing to play as big as a $5K buy-in are encouraged to contact high-limit host Willie Melia at (561) 312-0728.
All of this plays out in the 63-table South Florida poker room, which recently completed an extensive renovation that resulted in a fresh, more modern decor and included new carpet, chairs, rails, layouts, paint, wallpaper and three new big-screen televisions, as well sleek wood finishing and accents.
“Since opening the poker room in 1997, we have had the great distinction of being one of the busiest, largest and most popular poker rooms in the state of Florida,” Palm Beach Kennel Club VP Joe Rooney said. “This renovation reinforces our commitment to our poker room operations and the players who enjoy the games here.”
The venue also offers live greyhound racing and simulcast wagering, four restaurants, including the recently renovated Paddock Club that boasts an impressive fine wine list and striking views of the greyhound oval, and several concession areas. And, of course, there are few nicer places to visit during winter than the West Palm Beach area, just north of Ft. Lauderdale and Miami metro areas.
“Come explore the beaches and experience for yourself what so many loyal visitors have already discovered to be the best way to experience Florida,” Wright said. “Enjoy a fascinating array of cultural venues, sample the culinary masterworks of celebrity chef-owned restaurants, take in one of dozens of internationally renowned destination events or fish or dive in the Gulfstream-warmed waters of the Atlantic Ocean.”

A man who violently attacked another with a cutlass in 2019 during an argument over mangoes has been ordered to pay a fine to the court and compensation to the victim for his medical expenses.
On July 31 2019, Cortwright DeSilva of Bolans chopped Karim “Solid Gold” Samuel multiple times about the body, leaving him bleeding profusely at the scene near V&M Supermarket in Bolans.
Samuel was rushed to the then Mount St John’s Medical Centre where his condition was described as serious and critical, having lost a lot of blood from the wounds to his neck, back, right arm and fingers.
He underwent emergency surgery during which he received blood transfusions.
The altercation between Samuel and DeSilva started over mangoes.
DeSilva was subsequently charged with wounding with intent to murder and when the case came before the High Court recently, he admitted to the charge.
On Wednesday, Justice Ann-Marie Smith told the accused that he must cover the medical bill of the victim in the sum of $16,000 and also pay the state $2,000.-Newsco

Rub the top of the cups between your finger and thumb to separate them and ensure that they are single rather than doubled or tripled. Place one paper baking cup in each section of the muffin tin. Fill each of the paper baking cups approximately 2/3 full of your muffin batter.
Do you need to spray paper baking cups?
Well, they do prevent cake from sticking to the paper – sometimes just to a minor degree, as illustrated above (that’s greased paper on the left, ungreased on the right). But sometimes, with more delicate cupcakes, greasing the cups actually prevents chunks of cake sticking to the paper when you peel it off.
Can you bake in paper cups?
Can you bake cupcakes in paper cups without a pan? Absolutely yes. You need to consider that the stiffer the paper, the more stable your cupcake liners will be.
What can I use if I don’t have paper baking cups?
Use parchment paper instead of cups, Chapple says, for an upgraded case for your muffins or cupcakes, and you’ll never worry about cupcake liners again. First, cut a sheet of parchment into five-to-six-inch squares.
What are baking cups used for?
Baking cups (aka muffin cups) are used to line muffin and cupcake tins when making cupcakes, muffins or fairy cakes. Their use generally replaces greasing or greasing and flouring the cups. They are generally single-use, disposable items made of pleated wax-treated paper or pleated foil.
Can I use aluminum foil instead of cupcake liners?
While cupcake wrappers are widely available from supermarkets and specialty baking stores, they are also simple and quick to make at home using aluminum foil if you’re ever in a pinch. … The foil should be cut approximately 1 inch larger than the outside edge of the cupcake molds.
Why do my muffins stick to the paper cups?
Muffins often stick to the bottom of the wrapper because we’re more likely to try to eat them warm, while cupcakes are cooled entirely so we can frost them. Cakes and muffins shrink a bit as they cool, so they’ll actually loosen their grip on the wrapper slightly as they come to room temperature.
Can I use paper cups for muffins?
Paper baking cups can replace butter or oil in a muffin tin; they prevent your muffins or cupcakes from sticking to the tin and crumbling into pieces when you try to remove them. … Fill each of the paper baking cups approximately 2/3 full of your muffin batter.
Can you bake cupcakes in paper cups without a pan?
If you don’t have any mason jar rings, you can just put the liners on a baking sheet by themselves. The foil ones are especially good for this, but you can also double up the paper ones and use them instead.
Can I use aluminum foil instead of parchment paper?
Aluminum foil is a viable substitute for parchment paper too, but again, depends on your intended usage. Foil is basically a very thin piece of aluminum. … However, unlike parchment paper and wax paper, foil doesn’t have anything that makes it nonstick.
Can I use wax paper instead of cupcake liners?
Don’t use wax paper to line baking sheets or cake pans or put it in a hot oven. Wax paper is useful in many other ways. … Use parchment paper to line baking sheets, cake pans, pie pans, and meatloaf pans, cook fish and vegetables en papillote, as a makeshift muffin pan liners, and for any of the tasks listed above.
Can I bake cupcakes without liners?
You can bake excellent muffins or cupcakes and remove them safely from pans without using baking liners as long you effectively grease your baking pan. If you don’t want to bother with liners or make a special trip to the store, you’re not alone. … Liners add to the cost of baking.
When using baking cups do you grease?
Yes, as long as they’re durable enough to stand on their own. Do I need to grease the cupcake paper liner? Nope! The grease is for the cupcake batter to not stick to the pan, and the liners do the exact same thing, so you don’t have to grease the paper liners as well.
Should I spray foil cupcake liners?
Also asked, do I need to spray foil cupcake liners? No, it is not necessary to grease your muffin pan if you are using a baking cup. These paper separators should be removed before filling the foil baking cups with batter.
How do you make baking cups?
- Find a small can or jar that fits inside the muffin well. …
- Measure strips of parchment. …
- Cut off the strip of parchment. …
- Measure squares of parchment. …
- Cut the strip of parchment into squares. …
- Continue cutting parchment squares. …
- Press the squares around the mold to form cups.

Panic serves a purpose in life and it can keep you safe in dire situations. For example, if you’re driving along and suddenly, an oncoming car is about to hit, your adrenaline kicks in and you sense of panic takes over as a form of survival. But a panic attack is different and you certainly don’t need a potential car accident to bring it on. In this article, we discuss how to cope with panic attacks so you can keep your anxiety at bay when panic isn’t serving a valuable purpose.
What is a panic attack?
A panic attack is a sudden episode of intense fear that can seemingly come out of nowhere, for no apparent cause and when no threat or danger is even remotely near. The intense rush of fear triggers severe physical reactions that can make you feel disconnected from your body and the world around you, nauseous, dizzy and completely frozen in time. Your brain may even have you thinking that you’re losing control, having a heart attack or dying, and as you can imagine, they are incredibly frightening.
Coping strategies for panic attacks and anxiety
Having a handful of coping strategies for anxiety is key to overcoming those anxious moments and sudden rushes of fear. Knowing how to cope with panic attacks will also give you the confidence and reassurance needed to go out there and face your fears and triggers, which is essential for getting over anxiety. But you don’t have to head into your panic attacks blindly and with no support. There are a ton of coping skills and strategies that you can use to calm an anxious thoughts and feelings as they come, so you can face your fears. The more you continue to do so, the easier that trigger will become and eventually, it won’t trigger any anxiety at all. Then, you can move onto the next things and the next, and eventually be free of anxiety and panic attacks.
Here are some coping skills, calming methods and relaxation items that can help you learn how to cope with panic attacks:
Use a spinning anxiety ring to induce a natural sense of relaxation
Spinning rings are an effective coping tool for anxiety that allow you to induce relaxation simply by spinning the band on the anxiety ring. They can be used as a fidget tool – and one that is far less distracting and noisy than other fidget items, to stay in the present moment or to slow your breathing and bring calmness into your mind.
Our collection of anxiety spinning rings are made with high quality silver, so you can wear them as much as you want without worrying about them breaking when you need them the most or turning your finger green.
Use deep breathing techniques
When panic attacks happen, your breathing becomes short, quick, and shallow, which can actually increase or worsen your anxious feelings. On the other hand, slowing down your breath can induce a sense of calm and bring you out of your panic attack. And your breath is always available to you, making breathing techniques one of the top coping strategies for anxiety. They’re also clinically proven to work.
There are a plethora of effective breathing techniques to use for anxiety but to get you started, one of the easiest coping strategies is box breathing, which combines breath and visualization for a double-whammy against anxiety. Here are the steps to using it:
- Pause for four seconds and imagine drawing one straight line of a square
- Breathe in for four seconds and visualize drawing a second straight line of a square
- Hold for four seconds and visualize drawing a third straight line of a square
- Exhale for four seconds and visualize drawing the last straight line of a square
Use grounding techniques to eliminate extra external stimuli
During a panic attack, everything that is going on around you – from the sounds to the sights – can make you fall deeper into your panic, causing you to feel disconnected and disassociated from your body and surroundings. An excellent coping strategy for this is to use grounding techniques, such as the one mentioned above. This will help you drown out some of the external stimuli and help you focus on calming down.
Use stone for anxiety relief
If you’re into crystals and all the healing energy that they offer, grab some stones for anxiety and stuff them in your purse, pocket or bra. Using crystals for anxiety relief is a simple and easy way to induce a sense of calm and confidence as you trek towards conquering those fears and triggers. You can also use stones for anxiety as a fidget tool or distraction: narrow in your focus on the texture, the energy, the colour, and whatever else you can find about that particular crystal. I am personally a huge fan of using worry stones for anxiety, as they have a long history of being an effective form of relief.
Get your body moving
When learning how to cope with panic attacks, one of the best things you can do is add in some regular exercise into your day. Exercise increases endorphins in the brain which effectively reduce anxiety and panic attacks while also allowing you to release any tension or stress being stored in the body. You can do something vigorous to sweat it all out, or enjoy a nice stroll around the block to start harnessing the benefits of exercise. Although, exercising outdoors does give you the extra benefit of fresh air, which is great for your mental health.
Challenge negative thoughts
Having negative thoughts is nothing to be ashamed of. We all have them. However, learning how to challenge your negative thoughts is an effective coping strategy that can stop anxiety in its tracks. For example, when a panic attack starts, your brain immediately goes to a place where the worst of the worse is going to happen. Your thoughts start telling you that you’re going to die or throw up or completely fall apart – all of which are negative thoughts that throw you even further into a panic.
Instead, try to challenge your negative thoughts with the coping strategies mentioned above or with the power of positive affirmations. For example, instead of thinking “I’m going to die!”, repeatedly tell yourself that you are calm, you are in control, you are safe and that you will get through this feeling.
Learning how to challenge negative thoughts is one of the most important things you can do when learning how to cope with panic attacks.
Practice mindfulness and meditation
They aren’t just buzz words! Practicing mindfulness can help train your mind to stay in the present moment when experiencing anxiety, which can help prevent you from being swept deeping into a panic. Meditation is a form of mindfulness that will completely transform your life and, if I must say so myself, is one of the best things you can do when learning how to cope with panic attacks. Here are some coping strategies you can use that involve mindfulness and meditation:
- Start every day with an intention
- Focus on your (positive) thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations
- Enjoy some adult colouring (our mini adult colouring book is perfect for doodling on the go)
- Visualize your thoughts as pictures or words
- Watch your thoughts float away without obsessing or analyzing them..
- Do a guided meditation or mindfulness practice
- Project positivity and happiness (invest in wishing other people well, instead of the opposite)
- Use binaural audio tones to re-program your brain
Use a happy place visualization
An excellent self-soothing technique is to imagine yourself in a peaceful, safe space where you can relax. This could be a place you have visited before and felt super calm and relaxed, such as on the ocean or in a forest, or it could be an imaginary place, like floating on a white cloud. You can choose any place that makes you feel safe and go there anytime you feel your anxiety creeping it. The key to using this coping strategy is to use all of your senses – your taste, touch, hearing, smell, and sight as you imagine your safe space. For example, if your safe place is at a beach, feel the sand between your toes, smell and taste the salty ocean air, and hear the rolling waves.
Use natural supplements for a healthy dose of relaxation
Sometimes all you need to overcome anxiety is a healthy dose of nutrition that can help you feel more calm. In fact, there are many vitamins and minerals that, when you don’t get enough of them, can cause a spike in anxiety. Magnesium is one of those things. In this case, you can consider taking Myer’s cocktail therapy, which includes a number of essential vitamins, such as Magnesium, Vitamin C, and B12. There are also supplements that can act as a natural healer, such as CBD oil. So, explore your options and if you aren’t sure what you need, take a look at our list of the top supplements for anxiety.
Whatever coping strategies you choose to use, remember that learning how to cope with panic attacks requires you to face your fears. You cannot avoid the things triggering your anxiety, but you also don’t have to face your anxiety all on your own. That’s what these awesome coping skills, strategies and relaxation items are for – to help you ease into those situations until they no longer trigger your anxiety. Grab a friend for support or consider online therapy to develop new coping skills that will help you along the way.

Review: New Microsoft Sculpt Comfort KeyboardPosted by aonenetworks On September 27, 2012
Those of us who type a lot know how uncomfortable a traditional keyboard can get. Many of us are always on the search for a new keyboard to suit our wrists better so we can type for long periods without discomfort. Microsoft has recently come out with a new keyboard called the Sculpt Comfort Keyboard that aims to accomplish this goal for a reasonable price. Read on and see if you might be interested in the features it has to offer.
About the New Keyboard
The Sculpt Comfort has been described as the “La-Z-Boy” of PC Keyboards. It’s Microsoft’s first release of a full-size keyboard in the last two years since they have been focusing on tablet-focused devices instead, so it’s no surprise that the design is fairly original, including Windows 8-specific keys. Some reviewers complain that the spacebar is simply too large, but Microsoft has an answer for this complaint. They say that the vast majority of typists use their right thumb only on spacebars, which leaves a ton of unused space that can be utilized for another useful function. Since the backspace is literally the third most pressed key on most keyboards, Microsoft decided to use the extra space wisely, and split the spacebar into two parts. The Sculpt Comfort has an option to turn the left spacebar key into a “delete” button instead of a space. The idea is that you won’t have to move your wrists at all to correct a mistake made on the screen, and is a useful application of the extra space.
The keys are absolutely huge so your fingers will have trouble missing the right key, and a padded wrist rest gives you 2.5 inches of comforting space to put your hands while typing. If you don’t like wrist rests, no problem; you can simply remove it. The key action has a “reduced sound and push quality” to make typing a soft, soundless activity.

The Cubs entered Sunday’s series finale in Baltimore looking for their first road sweep of 2017. Thanks to suddenly red hot offense and a new addition on the mound, it turned out to be a piece of crab cake.
Jose Quintana looked very good in his debut in a Chicago uniform. The Colombian lefty retired the first nine batters he faced, striking out five of them.
Former Rockies stud Ubaldo Jimenez was not nearly as successful for Baltimore. Willson Contreras doubled to open the 2nd inning, but he only made it to third on Kyle Schwarber’s follow-up double as he held to see whether it would drop.
Ian Happ made it three straight doubles with a shot to the gap in left-center to score two. Jason Heyward singled to score Happ, and a Ben Zobrist single scored J-Hey to build the Cubs lead to 4-0.
Jon Jay singled to leadoff the 4th inning and advanced to third on a nifty base-running play when Zobrist grounded to first. All that effort proved unnecessary when Kris Bryant pounded a two-run homer deep to left.
A 6-0 lead was more than enough Quintana, who was outstanding on Sunday. Excellent fastball command combined with a nasty curveball left Orioles hitters at a loss.
The Cubs played add-on in the 9th, when Bryant singled and Anthony Rizzo blasted a bomb to right-center. After Quintana left, CJ Edwards and Brian Duensing closed out the 8-0 Chicago victory.
Stats That Matter
- Willson Contreras is on an absolute tear of late. Four more hits today have raised WillCo’s batting average to .278 and his OPS to .823. He also caught Quintana’s terrific start.
- After a prolonged “slump,” Kris Bryant is on the upswing again. He got on four times Sunday: a walk, two singles, and the no-doubt homer.
- Jose Quintana’s line says it all: 7 IP, 0 R, 3 H, 12 K, and 0 BB. Of course most starts aren’t going to be this good, but even a fraction of that will win a lot of games.
The Cubs swept the Orioles to start the second-half and climb back over the .500 mark. If Chicago wants to get back in the race, now is the time to go on a roll. Will this finally be the time they do?
The Cubs head to the new Sun Trust Park to face the Braves on Monday. Jon Lester, fresh off the shortest start of his career, takes on Julio Teheran. The game is at 6:35 CT and airs on WGN.

Great magical hailstones pound down upon casting this spell, dealing 3d6 points of bludgeoning damage and 2d6 points of cold damage to every creature in the area. This damage only occurs once, when the spell is cast. For the remaining duration of the spell, heavy snow and sleet rains down in the area. Creatures inside this area take a –4 penalty on Perception skill checks and the entire area is treated as difficult terrain. At the end of the duration, the snow and hail disappear, leaving no aftereffects (other than the damage dealt).

Stephen R. Donaldson – Lord Foul’s Bane Audiobook
Stephen R. Donaldson – Lord Foul’s Bane Audiobooktext
Donaldson pulls you right into the character of Thomas Covenant so completely and also in such an engaging style …
You can’t aid however turn the next web page & read cover to cover to see just how Commitment keeps his sanity, stabilizing the real world catastrophe & influences of among liberal arts most dreadful illness states against the assurance of wellness, vigor, & wild magic in a desire realm … Lord Foul’s Bane Audiobook Free. Or is it?This was the initial, true, fantasy story I review, in eight grade. His writing still surprises me. Impressive. You might have to investigate a few words or 2. Lol. This is a publication that narrates the later life, of an extremely clinically depressed man with a clinical issue, that is moved to another world/universe where he has great power. If you such as tales regarding hero’s and also their starts, then you will certainly like this publication and also series.The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Skeptic: Lord Foul’s Scourge by Stephen R. Donaldson, is a sheer work of art! I typically do not review dream however from checking out the testimonials here at Amazon.com, I thought I ‘d give this a shot. I was NOT dissatisfied in the least. The tale is of a guy named Thomas Agreement who is a leper, a pariah in his community shunned by all. Without giving away way too much of the plot, our really reluctant hero is transported to an additional measurement where he is faced with a really real battle of great versus bad. What makes Thomas unique is that he is believed to be the version of the mythical hero, Berek Half Hand (cool name huh?) Likewise, Thomas posseses a ring of white gold that is the crucial to unknown power in fighting the dreaded Lord Foul the Despiser as well as his minions. All the characters are fully brought to life in this tale as well as are completely believable and also can have whole books blogged about them. The only issue that I have, though really minor is that the map at the front of the book could have been a little more clear. Some of the text and also diagrams were difficult to check out yet not too bad. I’m looking forward to the Illearth battle and also can not wait to review it! If you’ll like this, look into Gene Wolf’s books of the Sunlight series, there you’ll see some similarities that’ll make you think.First, please comprehend that when I describe Tolkien below, it is just in the sense of the grand extent of the globe that Donaldson creates with this collection of books. Donaldson’s Thomas Commitment publications are masterworks of creative delight, irritation, and also eventually victory. Both the irritation and triumph originate from the ins and outs of a complicated anti-hero whom the visitor will alternately want to curse and salute. The initial publication, Lord Foul’s Bane, is not without problems, and it does start gradually as others have kept in mind, yet the dedicated viewers will be awarded with an impressive of Tolkien percentages and also a globe which hurts to depart when the last web page is done. I have gone back to this series sometimes for many years, and it holds a location of honor in my collection.I have absolutely nothing brand-new to add to the positive evaluations below. I only would say that I read this series when it was first launched, and I got each brand-new novel after Lord Foul’s Bane as soon as they appeared. Donaldson is one of our finest Sci-Fi/Fantasy writers, and this is his seminal work. Stephen R. Donaldson – Lord Foul’s Bane Audio Book Download. Thomas Agreement is so fascinating since he most likely the supreme reluctant or “anti” hero. Add the character to a fantastic world packed with distinct creatures, personalities, as well as problems as well as you have the dish for wonderful legendary dream. If you have not read Donaldson, this is the location to start.In 1977, the year my boy was born, I initially uncovered the works of Stephen R. Donaldson, as well as made my first journey to “The Land” an enchanting location, loaded with light-filled wraiths, the incredible hillsides of Andelain, hurtloam (which heals all ailments), Giants, Ranyhyn (Equines who listen to the summons of those that require them years ahead of time in order to be where they are needed at the correct time), as well as, naturally, the hero of what would certainly become a prolonged series: Thomas Covenant, a writer with spontaneous Hansen’s Condition (leprosy), that is contacted us to “The Land” by a senior beggar.
