President Trump’s summit with North Korean dictator Kim Jong-Un — this one in Hanoi — has concluded with no agreement. I have embedded Trump’s 37-minute press conference with Secretary Pompeo in its entirety below (thank you, MSNBC). It is worth a close look. Kim wanted sanctions lifted in their entirety in exchange for too much of nothing (the dismantling of the Yongbyon nuclear complex). It had always worked for Kim in the past. Why not this time?
Nicholas Eberstadt had warned against a bad deal here in the New York Times. However, Trump did the right thing; he walked. “It was about the sanctions,” Trump said. Pompeo expressed optimism that they would ultimately reach a deal, as did Trump. They are now headed back to the United States.

By Linda Dillman
Groveport Road residents in Canal Winchester are concerned about the proposed re-configuring of the roadway in front of their homes.
A preliminary plan for the Gender Road and Groveport Road intersection called for adding a lane along the right-of-way on land owned by private citizens. Public Service Director Matt Peoples said the city went back to the drawing board when the plan generated a lot of reaction.
By not adding the through lane along Gender Road from Groveport Road to Foxhill Drive, Peoples said the plan not only eliminates the need for the city to procure additional easements, it also reduces the cost. The bulk of new construction would be on land on the north side of Groveport Road owned by the city. In addition, the bike path would shift a little north to where it crosses Gender Road.
“There will be no construction outside of existing pavement limits,” Peoples said. “We can show we’re not impacting any residential property. We have plenty of room with acquiring the Detty property.”
However, resident Brian Carney is not happy with plans to increase the number of lanes along Groveport Road along property he’s owned for two decades. He said the city already took a significant slice of his land during a previous road project.
“I haven’t seen any studies about the soil on the land owned by the city indicating they can widen the road,” said Carney. “What happens if they can’t build there? Will they ask for more of my land? We’re not anti-development. We’re just protecting everything we’ve worked for for the last 20 years. I saw the new plan and I’m still not happy with it. It impacts the safety of our homes.”
Carney said if the present plan goes through, his family and visitors will have to cross three lanes of “busy” traffic to access his driveway. In light of a recent incident, where a car barely missed the house east of his property during a late-night accident, Carney felt opening up the intersection will open up the area to more traffic and an increased risk for a more serious accident.
“In the last month or two, we’ve seen a huge increase in truck traffic,” said Carney.
Resident Jim Bohnlein said he does not know why they need to make changes to the intersection and run the risk of impacting traffic and property values.
“The new proposal looks more problematic with traffic,” said Bohnlein. “I think the intersection is just fine as it is. There’s not a problem.”
According to Peoples, the Gender Road OPWC Phase IV project is not a “done deal” and still needs to proceed through the application process, which includes a public hearing.

When most people consider the switch from working in an office to working remotely, they only focus on the benefits of remote work. Fewer distractions and interruptions. No boss checking in on you or lurking over your shoulder. Checking email in your underwear.
Once they’ve made the switch and started working remotely, however, they soon realize that maintaining communication and operating effectively as a member of a distributed team takes a LOT of work – sometimes more work than when they commuted to an office and sat in a cubicle everyday.
I’ve learned some important things about working remotely over the last few years, but perhaps the most important was figuring out how to work effectively with my distributed coworkers. For a 100% remote company like Tribe to be successful, it’s necessary to build a team of people with the right mix of professional skills and personal attributes. Finding those people can be really tough, and it starts with being a good distributed team member yourself.
Here are 5 Rules for Being a Good Distributed Team Member
1. Don’t Be a D*$k
This should just be a generally life rule, but it’s especially important when working as part of a distributed team. No one like to work with a jerk, whether it’s in an office, factory, retail store, or on a computer from hundreds of miles away. Being cordial and friendly is especially important in a remote work environment because you’ll likely have no other contact with your team members like you might have in an office setting. You won’t be able to apologize for snapping at a coworker over a few happy hour beers on a Friday, so make it a point to be extra nice with all of your internal team communication.
2. Take Initiative
Working remotely requires a high level of self-motivation and discipline. In a way, a good distributed team member is kind of like a mini entrepreneur, managing and growing the area of the business that they are responsible for. Being proactive and taking initiative when it comes to solving problems, responding to clients, or handling day to day tasks is critical for distributed team members.
3. Be an EPIC Communicator
Trust is the most important component of a successful remote working relationship. And what builds trust? Yep, goodcommunication. But it isn’t enough to just be a good communicator – you need to be an EPIC communicator in order to be a good distributed team member. All of your communication, from internal chats and emails with team members to phone calls with clients, needs to be on point. This may require you to develop more effective communication habits, but it will pay off huge for you and your remote team.
4. Always Be Honest
As I mentioned earlier, trust is the most important component of a successful remote team. In addition to communication, a major factor in developing trust among your distributed team members is honesty. Make sure you’re always honest about everything you do: time tracking, working hours, task management, finances, etc. The minute your team members think you’re being dishonest is when things can start to go south quickly.
5. Be Accountable
Who was supposed to follow up with that client? Was that proposal sent on time? Why did we miss that project deadline? If you’re the guy (or girl) who’s always passing the buck on your responsibilities, than remote work probably isn’t for you. A good distributed team member is accountable for their actions, both good and bad. They make sure tasks get completed on time, and they don’t come up with a million excuses when something doesn’t get done. They make it right and move on.

Senior Client Partner, Global DE&I and ESG Strategist
Help show workers how to overcome instead of being overwhelmed. Find areas where there are connections, not division. And do what leaders always should do: inspire.
In the wake of a week that has shown how divided the country remains in the political arena, business chiefs find themselves looking for ways to focus all the energy Americans put into the election back into the workplace. Reviving the troops, so to speak, is never easy in years when the Oval Office is at stake. But it’s even more of a challenge amid the unprecedented events of 2020.
It is possible, though. At least, that’s what leadership books and studies have been saying for decades. Looking for ideas relevant to the current times, we spoke with some Korn Ferry experts after Tuesday’s historic vote, discussing leadership, engagement, and inclusion. Here are five actions they suggested:
Anticipate, and de-escalate, the tension.
Based on the vote counts, the United States is deeply divided. As the days drag on, votes get counted, and lawsuits pile up, tempers are bound to flare, says Andrés Tapia, a Korn Ferry senior client partner and the firm’s global diversity and inclusion strategist. “Leaders need to be ready to douse potential verbal and even physical altercations because now the stakes are super high,” he says. The best way to do that is by reinforcing the commitment to peaceful resolutions, both in the organization and democracy generally. “This is a time to encourage patience and fairness and remind employees to respect the process and be supportive of every vote being counted and letting democracy run its course,” advises Tapia.
Keep people busy.
At a time like this, the proverbial watercooler talk could be a leader’s worst nightmare. Will the votes in Wisconsin be recounted? What will the courts do about Pennsylvania? Will things stay peaceful? The conversations could be a drag on everyone’s productivity.
Such speculation is hard to stop, of course, and it’s important for leaders to acknowledge that the election is on everyone’s mind. Alan Guarino, vice chairman of Korn Ferry’s Board and CEO Services practice, says one way to dissuade speculation is by encouraging employees to keep their heads down and “get on with the work of the company.” Compared to the alternatives of watching the news all day or endless speculating on the results, Guarino says, “people might be glad to have a full day of work.”
Double down on purpose.
The pace of change is only going to accelerate, regardless of the election’s ultimate outcome. Leaders must make clear what the constants are within an organization amid that rapid change, says Kevin Cashman, Korn Ferry’s global leader of CEO and executive development. He points to purpose, values, and operational agility as behaviors to focus on and reinforce to get employees aligned around a common goal. “Leaders can’t plan and forecast their way through this, but they can elevate the situation with more vision,” Cashman says.
The goal, he says, is to make employees feel they can overcome, rather than be overwhelmed by, the system. “Employees are looking to leaders to help them get their energy back and leaders can do that by getting them to buy into something bigger than what they are fighting,” says Cashman.
Move from division to diversity.
It may seem impossible, but leaders need to find points of interconnection that employees can align around with that and utilize their differences, says Jane Stevenson, Korn Ferry’s global leader for CEO succession and vice chairman of the firm’s Board and CEO Services practice. While approaches and solutions may be different, people are facing many of the same overarching issues, among them safety amid the pandemic, healthcare coverage, and job stability. Research shows more diverse organizations perform better financially, after all, and that includes a diversity of thought. “Finding common ground amid our differences helps build community and is something both the nation and business desperately needs right now,” Stevenson says.
One of the strengths of democracy is the counterbalance created by a diversity of voices. Business success is no different. “Leaders need to leverage contrasting points of view to create better corporate wisdom and more effective outcomes,” Stevenson says.
Bring the enthusiasm … in spots.
Great leaders aren’t necessarily the smartest or strongest, but they all ultimately inspire others to perform. Both presidential candidates often rely on raw passion, using it as a way to motivate people in a variety of ways, whether it's to donate money, volunteer time or get out and vote. And in this case, it worked: more than two-thirds of eligible Americans voted in the election, the highest level in more than a century.
Both candidates tapped something inside the people who followed their speeches or attended their rallies. “When a leader brings that passion, it creates something that people want to follow. It transmits power,” says Sonamara Jeffreys, Korn Ferry’s co-president of Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
The enthusiastic approach may fall on its face for a leader trying to motivate people to say, construct a house. But deployed wisely, enthusiasm and passion can align the leader’s vision with the needs of others, ultimately creating a cohesive, top-performing team.

Copolymer Production Cost Reports
Copolymer production cost report provides a comprehensive analysis and know-how for setting up a Copolymer production plant. The study covers all the requisite aspects that one needs to know for the production of Copolymer. This includes manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure requirements, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, etc.
Copolymer is a type of polymer comprising two or more distinct repeating units or monomer species; for instance, Lego blocks that contain several acrylonitriles, butadiene, and styrene subunits is a type of copolymer. Most of the commercially significant polymers are copolymers, such as nitrile rubber, polyethene-vinyl acetate (PEVA), and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS).
Copolymer is formed using multiple species of monomers via copolymerization. They are a diverse class of high molecular weight substances made by chemical combination, typically into long chains, of molecules of two or more simple compounds (monomers that form the polymer). Some types of Copolymers are Butadiene styrene copolymer, nitrile rubber, styrene isoprene styrene etc. They are classified on the basis of their structures. The ones with a single chain are called linear copolymers, while ones containing polymeric side chains are known as branched copolymers.
Copolymers are mainly used for enhancing or modifying some properties of plastics. It is employed in the production of several products, such as tires, plastics, and tubes which drives market growth. They are also used as corrosion inhibitors as well as for improving plastic material's mechanical properties. Copolymers of hygroscopic and hydrophilic polymers usually have applications in drug delivery, cosmetics, and self-polishing paint applications.
Furthermore, Acrylic copolymers find application in the production of personal care products like eyeliners, nail polish, sunscreens, lipsticks, skin lotions, etc. As membranes, Graft polymers can be used for splitting gas and liquids and also in emulsifiers and biomedical applications furthering the market demand.
Spandex, employed as synthetic fibre, is a block copolymer, which is like other block polymers, including polyester and polyamide TPEs that are used in sports goods, hose tubing, and automotive components. Also, Nylon -6-6- is a type of copolymer commonly used for carpeting, in textiles, as well as an engineering material in bearings and gears as it has self-lubricating properties.

It was just a matter of time. Giancarlo Stanton is healthy, he looks good, he’s locked in. He’s going to have a monstrous power year. We really enjoy him.
Career home run number 211 was a dramatic one. You see, the Marlins are a pesky breed. They waited out Jacob deGrom through all the swings and misses, he racked up 13 strikeouts; but the Marlins simply wouldn’t die. Fernando Salas entered the game to try to get it to the ninth, and Christian Yelich hit a game tying home run to make the score 4-4.
Then Stanton got his chance. Love the call of this one and what is usually a tepid crowd in Miami seemingly erupting. It was a great moment for the upstart Marlins, who have taken this series after facing Noah Syndergaard and now Jacob deGrom.
Here’s Stanton’s third long ball of the 2017 season:
Marlins final holds up at 5-4. They’re to 6-5 on the season. They play inspired, tough, gritty baseball. We’ve watched them a good bit – and they just seem to battle night in and night out.

Don’t let knee pain stop you…
The affordable solution to prevent and treat knee pain
We feel your pain. And we know that being in pain can ruin your day – and your life.
That is why we started our mission on sourcing, developing and manufacturing products that help you feeling better and giving you back the joy of life.
There are various causes of knee pain. Knees are the joints in your body that hold most of your weight. Whenever you move, kneel down or just bend your knees, there are massive forces acting on your knees. Beyond that there is additional pressure that acts on your bursts, ligaments, meniscus, tendons and bones of your knees. Over time even basic activities or sports exercises can lead to knee pain. And if not treated right, this can get really bad…
Support, Prevention, Compression
Our knee braces are developed to help you, regardless what your causes are. You can wear them for all kinds of sports, like running, hiking, football, basketball, in the gym or just at home during everyday activities. This comfortable, lightweight support relieves knee pain and swellings and give your knees just the perfect support and stability.
Controlled compression throughout the joint and the relief of pressure over the patella are the key features that took us months of development. But we finally reached a point where the balance of these key components is just perfectly right. Other great features are…
Anti-skid silicone makes these braces always stay in place. Most other braces can get really uncomfortable when they slip and skid. Keeping them in place guarantees the perfect protection and support at all times. To reach that goal we developed a unique insert made of anti-allergical silicone, so you will never have to reposition your brace again.
Comfortable, yet highly elastic fabric does a great job when it comes to putting them on or off. The innovative knit prevents bunching or pinching and make them so comfortable. You will almost forget that you are wearing a brace. The fabric that we use is also used in the personal care industry for hygienic reasons. This means less smell due to sweat and bacteria for better skin comfort.
Over time we made the fabric better and better. We were able to implement a major upgrade which is anatomically knitted for a precise fit and features a new level of breathability.
The fabric will not retain heat, but will will also make sure that your skin does not cool down. Keeping the perfect temperature is key for your comfort, especially when wearing a brace for longer periods and not just during sports.
The number one choice for athletes
Our Painless Knee Support Braces are being worn by professional athletes all around the globe and many of them swear by them. The lightweight fabric and non-matched comfort let you forget that you are even wearing a knee brace. They can be worn regardless which other gear you want to wear. Over or under running pants, directly on your skin or in combination with other little helpers. The choice is yours.

As we approach a certain age, many of us start to consider heart disease and what we can do to prevent it. Why the worry? Well, as the leading cause of death for men and women, almost 600,000 of us, or 1 in every 4 deaths in the United States is a result of heart disease every year. So, what exactly is heart disease and how can it be prevented? Read on to find out!
What is Heart Disease?
Heart disease is the term given to a group of different health conditions that affect the heart. In the United States, the most common form of heart disease is called coronary artery disease (CAD). CAD is often responsible for serious cardiovascular events like a heart attack, heart failure, chest pain, and irregular heartbeat, also called arrhythmia.
Symptoms of Heart Disease
The warning signs of heart disease often don’t appear until you’re having a heart attack, but there are some symptoms that could start indicating trouble is on the horizon. Symptoms of an emergency or impending heart attack may include:
- Chest Discomfort
- Nausea, Indigestion, Heartburn or Stomach Pain
- Pain that Spreads to the Arm
- Dizziness or Lightheadedness
- Throat or Jaw Pain
- Eat More Fruits and Vegetables: There is nothing more basic than the fact that vegetables and fruits offer vitamins, minerals, and fiber to help control cholesterol. If you do nothing else, work on incorporating more plant life into your diet. Some ideas are to eat salads every day, make yourself raw snack veggies like carrots, celery, pepper strips, and cucumbers or grab a banana with breakfast. Soups are also a great way to add vegetables into your diet.
- Select Whole Grains: Avoiding overly processed baked goods and white flour are key. When you have a choice to make, go for the whole grain options in pastas, breads, and other types of foods. When possible, skip the bread and eat your grains whole, for example, oatmeal or rice.
- Use Flax Seed: Flax seed is a wonder food full of healthy omega 3 fatty acids which are thought to be very protective of the heart and arteries. You need to store the seeds in the fridge and grind them in a coffee grinder right before eating for the best benefits. Add to salads, baked goods, or oatmeal for a nutritious boost. Flax has some laxative effects, so limit yourself to just a tablespoon or two a day.
- Cut the Fat: We’ve all heard the reputation that beef and other high fat meats have for “clogging arteries.” Unfortunately, many of us really enjoy a good steak or bacon cheeseburger, so if you don’t think you’ll be able to cut out red meat entirely, try to eat it infrequently and when you do, eat a small portion. Cheese and other dairy products are also very high in the types of fats that lead to inflammation and high cholesterol. When possible, limit your intake and select the low-fat varieties of dairy products for a healthier heart.
According to the National Institution of Health, there are four types of exercise: Endurance, Flexibility, Balance, and Strength. Of these, endurance, or “cardio” exercises are the best for a healthy heart. Endurance/cardio exercise increase the heart and breathing rates and include things like walking, running, hiking, swimming, biking, aerobics, etc. It is important to do some cardio every week; how much depends on your health factors, so consult your doctor. It is important to always check with a doctor first before starting any new exercise routine, not just cardio, particularly if you are advanced in age or have any other chronic health conditions. If while exercising you find yourself feeling dizzy or unable to catch your breath, you are probably working too hard and should stop.
Consult Your Doctor
At least annually, go in to your regular doctor for a checkup, but more often if you have heart issues or other risk factors. Have your cholesterol and blood pressure checked, and be sure to talk to your doctor about an additional stress that might be bothering you.

The video below has over 1,261,113 ( 1.26 Mio ) views. The rescued Pitbull is an 11 year old pet dog who led a neglected life after being abandoned. When he came with the Blue Cross sanctuary, his face was covered with matted fur.
Ashley writes in the video comments:
my heart broke for this angel. im glad Hes better. hes precious
It broke everyone’s heart to believe what he could have gone through.
He remained in such a pitiable state that the sanctuary team might not see what sex he was or what breed he belonged to.
When he was finally groomed as well as cleaned, his true shades shocked everyone. He was taken on by David and Doreen, two elderly couple who wanted an elderly dog.

What if you’re eating and having a discussion about a certain topic? Searching on your phone would mean your food gets cold. Or what if you’re lying on the couch without your phone and you want to control the lights? The voice recognition service called Alexa can solve those issues. In this presentation I will show you how to integrate Alexa in your home automation setup with openHAB. That way you can control your lights and everything else with your voice. openHAB is used as an example, you can use Alexa with almost any software and hardware. Last but not least I will show you how to create your own skills in Java to add functionality to Alexa. The skills are deployed with Maven to AWS Lambda as a serverless application. One of the examples connects an Alexa skill to a Spring Boot application running on AWS Lambda.

East Surrey College hosts County Lines Awareness Event
As part of the ongoing work to tackle the threat of drug trafficking and knife crime in the county, officers from Surrey Police Safer Neighbourhood and representatives from Crimestoppers Surrey joined the staff at East Surrey College to raise awareness as part of County Lines Intensification week.
On Wednesday 1 March, students were welcomed by a signed van outside the College with key messaging about county lines. This provided students with information about the fearless youth service, which develops effective anti-crime resources for young people and their families.
Throughout the day, students could attend workshops and speak with representatives in our Winter Garden to find out how they can help support the local community by reporting any drug-related crime. Students were also able to meet Hector, the trainee puppy, giving students an insight into the role dogs play in the force.
PC Richard Mcewen, from Reigate and Banstead’s Safer Neighbourhood Team, said: “Working closely with local schools and colleges is an important part of our commitment to safeguard communities from the devastating effects of county lines.
“We were able to speak openly with the students at East Surrey College about some of the risks involved with drugs, including exploitation and other associated dangers, such as knife crime."
“By having these conversations, we can work together as a community to spot the signs of county lines activity and protect those most at risk of exploitation.”
Lindsay Pamphilon, Chief Executive and Principal of Orbital South Colleges, added: “East Surrey College was delighted with the opportunity for students to hear more from the police about County Lines, talk to officers, and gain a first-hand understanding of the importance of keeping our community safe.”
If you’re concerned about drug-related crime in your area or think someone may be a victim of drug exploitation or knife crime, please call: 101 or report online at www.surrey.police.uk.
Alternatively, contact the Crimestoppers charity completely anonymously at 0800 555 111 or use the anonymous online form at https://crimestoppers-uk.org/

Everyone has seen retail strips in stores, commonly used in corner stores, drug stores and grocery outlets or retail centers. They maximize space usage, free up footprint acreage on shelves, and provide ready access for products either for personnel behind a counter or for customers in shopping aisles. But how do these simplistic plastic tools enhance retail so much? In a word, capacity. Retail strips allow vendors and retailers to take advantage of the vertical space every physical building has, whether on walls or shelves. And by doing so, it adds additional room and capacity to sell more products. That in turn creates more sales, more revenue and, ultimately, more income.
The value of retail strips is not a new one. Trying to use vertical space for product selling has been around for centuries since the first vendor opened his or her physical shop in a building and stored product on shelves versus just on the floor or booth at ground level. However, the modern retail center or store, while a far cry from those early huts, are still plagued with the same program: there is only so much physical space available to sell products. Grocery stores, in particular, they are extremely sensitive to space use because there is so much product and limited space to sell it all.
Probably the most functional retail strip tool was the Clip Strip, invented back in 1980 by one Edward Spitaletta. At the time, it was just a very basic form of fashioned flat plastic sheet, but many times simplicity is what wins the day. In short, the tool provided a retailed the ability to take advantage of a vertical wall, whether it was behind the shelf or on a bare wall, to not only add more product availability but to make it very visible as well. No surprise, many smaller stores and crowded grocery stores took up the idea immediately. Today, folks still see clip strips in regular use at gas station market stores, corner stores, small family grocery stores and more. Additionally, the tool is not limited to just the food retail industry. It works for any product packaging that can essentially be suspected by hanging.
The original clip strip was a very basic design; it generally anchored to the wall and hung down. Then the vendor attached various units of the products being sold to the clip strip hooks, keeping the product in place suspended but easily removable as needed as well. As product units were sold, they could be replaced with new stock changed with other items that could hook and hang the same way. However, as the value of the tool grew, so did the demand to be able to suspend far more different types of products. Heavier products were a particular need that couldn’t be handled by the original plastic clip strips. So, the variety of options grew as well. Both plastic and metal clip strips are available now, easily able to hold up heavier product units without issue.
An additional aspect involves clip strips that can be placed in a free-standing mode, an advantage of selling vertical again where there might not be a wall per se but plenty of space to sell product otherwise lost via conventional shelving. Utilizing special stand equipment, these free-standing clip strip designs help maximize floor space where there might not be vertical structures per se, such as open floor facilities.
Some of the biggest retailers today rely on clip strips on a regular basis. While a good amount of retail selling has definitely moved to e-commerce online, there is still a traditional demand for physical products, particularly in the consumable goods markets. Where a product has to be bought on a regular basis to meet people’s needs daily or weekly, no one wants to wait 3 to 5 days for it to be shipped only to find things broken or spoiled. Instead, they want the convenience of physical shopping for a personal schedule that day. So, retail stores have the opportunity with clip strips to meet such needs actively and conveniently.
Is physical retail going to wane over the next decade? Probably not. That impact would have already occurred in the 2000s with e-commerce had it really become a replacement gamechanger, even despite today’s kerfuffle over Web 3.0. For durable stock and large items, there is more traction in the digital world, especially given the price point differences. However, for regular retail, people still value the convenience of physical shopping over the supposed value of doorstep delivery, especially in areas and neighborhoods where “porch pirates” are common and a recurring problem. As a result, retailers would be mistaken to assume that they are going to move less inventory. In fact, people are consolidating trips and wanting to find more of what they are looking for at the same location, driving up demand to carry more products.
As a result of the above, retail strips will continue to be an essential product placement tool, especially for businesses with a lot of visual placement, walkthrough consumer traffic, and physical consumable goods to be sold. The computer hasn’t replaced everything, and it is clear that also won’t happen anytime soon either. In the meantime, Clip Strips work effectively and continue to support bottom line net income stability for retailers.

“Accidental Rapist” from Marie Fortune’s blog
The Rev. Dr. Marie Fortune, founder of the FaithTrust Institute and author of several books on sexual assault and domestic violence, says the controversial song, “Accidental Racist,” by Brad Paisley and LL Cool J caused her to think about the so-called “accidental” oppression of people. “As a white woman raised in the South, I’ve heard the angst expressed before,” she writes,. “I just don’t buy it.” But she goes on to say the song provided a take-off point for writing another version, which she calls “Accidental Rapist.” Its message relates to FaithTrust Institute‘s efforts to increase awareness of sexual violence, while working to end it through its training, consulting, and educational resources.
Related: See related references to rape culture in our Link of the Day this past March 26. See also “Ten things to end rape culture,” an article in The Nation. Addressing this issue is relevant at any time and all the time, but perhaps all the more so right now as Congress is demanding that immediate action be taken to curb the escalating statistics on rape in the military. (If you haven’t seen the revealing and shocking documentary,The Invisible War, about rape in the U.S. military, you can now rent or purchase it on DVD. It puts a human face on the damage caused by such assaults and is eye-opening in a way that’s impossible to grasp through statistics alone. See the trailer and clips about it on the PBS Independent Lens website.)

As a family on the road, I write a lot about our lives as “tourists” but what is it really like to be a family living in an RV?
There is so much more to the fulltime RV lifestyle than National Parks and museums. A few people have referred to our trip as a vacation. I understand how it would seem that way.
But it’s not a vacation.
Just ask Brent about how many hours he works a week. And ask the boys how they feel about school. And just because our toilet is in the RV doesn’t make it any more fun to clean.
My point is this is our life and much of our life takes place at “home” and in our “backyard”. An ever changing backyard is the second best thing about being a family on the road. The first best thing is slowing down and just being together.
With this in mind, I’m starting a new series of posts called Our Backyard. Our Backyard is to remember the simple moments that happen in and around our RV, to capture what it’s really like to be a family on the road, and to share the campgrounds we call home.
Don’t worry. I won’t be taking any pictures of me cleaning the toilet.
Thing Two enjoying his quill and ink.
Thing One walking the dogs.
An after dinner walk to watch the sunset.
Sunsets make everything magical even a beach covered in trash.
An abandoned camper.
There were a lot of choices for camping in the Outer Banks. We stayed at Sands of Time campground because they gave us our Passport America discount (50% off) every night. It was the least expensive campground we could find in the Outer Banks.
While it wasn’t fancy it was clean, quiet, cute, and the staff were super nice. It is also near the middle of the Outer Banks making it an easy drive to many places.
Our backyard in the Outer Banks.
It’s good to be a family on the road.

Your laugh was loud
and a little goofy
because it was genuine.
Whatever genetic abnormality you had
that doctors didn’t have a name for
that made you a bipedal encyclopedia
and made your soul squeaky clean was
a gift to us and yourself
even if you didn’t know it.
John and I still make fast and funny banter
at family get-togethers but ever since that bus hit you
our celebrations have gotten a little quieter.
The grandparents’ dinner table
is a little less crowded now when there’s a birthday
or Christmas shindig.
Your corny jokes that never changed,
delivered with a toothy grin
and occasional spittle,
feel like the highest comedy now, classics.
You knew your sudden shoulder rubs and the quiet
off-color musings that accompanied them
would give us a laugh.
It’s bullshit that your birthdays stopped so suddenly.

How to Deal with a Burst Pipe and a Flooded Home: 10 Simple Steps
Homeowners want to know what to do when a ruptured pipe plagues their home. This problem rarely occurs, but knowing what to do if a pipe breaks somewhere in your home is important. Homeowners who are unaware of this problem often face water damage to floors, walls, and valuables.
But many Comfort Air knows how to help struggling homeowners with a broken line. Our plumber has detailed the reasons, indicators, and how to respond. It’s easier than you think! By following these tips, you will reduce the water damage your home faces, and plumbing problems will soon be new.
Causes of broken pipes
There are many reasons why a pipe ruptures. Many factors can play a role, but sometimes most homeowners suffer from a few common causes. Pay attention to your plumbing system year-round, as pipe breaks rarely happen overnight. Here are some of the most common causes of burst pipes:
First, corrosion can cause the pipeline to rupture. Corrosion occurs due to an imbalance in the pH value of the water. Rust can also cause a lot of corrosion. In either case, the corrosion will last for a long time until the pipeline fails. Rusted and out-of-balance pH values can compromise the strength of the pipeline and lead to leaks or ruptures. Because well water generally contains a high concentration of iron, rusty pipes are more common in homes with well water.
During harsh and cold winters, pipeline freezing is a big problem. When the temperature drops below 32 degrees, the water in the pipe freezes. This can weaken the link in the pipe and cause it to break. When the temperature rises rapidly, such as when hot water is added, the ice or the pipes are destroyed. If you’ve ever had a long, cold winter, warm your home to avoid this problem.
In most cases, pipeline movements are accidental. Sometimes after winter, the pipe moves because the low temperature causes it to shrink. Changes can also occur when other parts of the pipeline are repaired or when the water pressure is too high and the pipeline shakes. If this movement increases the water pressure in a certain area, the hose will rupture.
The water pressure also increases because there is a blockage somewhere in the pipe. If the blockage is near the drain, it won’t cause much of a problem for the plumbing system. However, when an occlusion forms in the deep end of the pipe, water pressure is created around the occlusion. Water is leaking from the hose because it has nowhere to go. The pipeline ruptures when the pressure becomes too high to handle the metal.
Deal with a Burst Pipe and a Flooded Home
Homeowners have more control over broken pipes than they realize. Actual repairs should be done by aprofessional flood damage service, but procedures are in place to minimize water damage. These require little plumbing knowledge and are a quick way to keep important parts of your home from coming into contact with water. Implement these simple tips before the plumber arrives.
Put off your hand.
Stop watering first. When a burst occurs, no new water is Needed a flood damages San Diego in the piping system. Water already in the system is easier to remove than new water. Wait for the plumber to tell you that you can turn the water back on.
Call the plumber.
Then call a plumber. Do it as soon as possible to minimize the damage. You never know when the plumber will be home, so call as soon as possible to reduce the wait time. The plumber diagnoses the cause, discusses a solution, and fixes the problem. Preventive maintenance can also prevent a broken pipe, so you should schedule maintenance visits all year round to avoid this problem.
Eliminates water quickly to avoid excessive water damage. When a pipe does rupture some degree of water damage is needed to flood damage in San Diego, but the sooner the water is cleaned, the less likely it is to cause irreversible damage to your property. Quick cleaning ensures that mold and mildew do not grow. The longer the water stays, the more likely these materials are to grow, so clean and dry the area quickly.
Empty the faucet.
Drain the faucet to remove any residue from the system. Dehydration can reduce some of the pressure in the hose and make sure the hose is dry to prevent water leakage. Wash the toilet several times to drain the water from the toilet. Start with cold water, then move on to hot water. Make sure the boiler or water heater is off when doing this.
Add hot air.
Frozen pipes should be heated slowly to avoid further damage. To do this, increase the heating of the house. If there is still not enough heat, use a hairdryer to heat the hose. It heats up slowly, but at a rate sufficient to prevent the hose from breaking again. Dramatic temperature changes can rupture pipelines.
Leave the door open.
Leave the door open to circulate the hot air. Rooms with exposed ducts require more air circulation to dry the ducts and their surroundings. You want the hose to dry as quickly as possible, so always make sure there is air circulation. The hotter the air, the faster the water dries.
Repair the sleeve.
Repair housings and temporarily repair burst pipes. Slide the housing over the pipe to cover the hole or repair any damage. Because the water in the pipe accumulates in a short time, it can be used at home. However, since this repair is temporary, it does not take much time. Call a plumber as soon as possible to have the pipe repaired.
Rubber, wood chips, clips.
Rubber, wood, and clips are also ways that homeowners can fix broken pipes in a short time. Place the rubber on the burst area, cover it with a block of wood, and secure it together. This will keep the water in the pipe in no time. This method is not as long as the sleeve, so it is only used in emergencies. Immediately contact a Professional flood damage san Diego to have the pipe repaired.

I hate to talk about my afflictions but my advisors recommended to me to write and publishing my writings and that´s why I´m thinking about doing a special blog, which will talk about lives of heroes whose lives can improve, can be written about ,experiences and emotions that happen in this period that we have had to live are so unique and exciting and entertaining, to see If this really relax me.
<—-ALS exists à There is no doubt about this.
I love to remember a very certain phrase: “If you have over 40 years and you don´t have any pain, that means that you´re dead”. Therefore, when I turned 40 I suffered from some herniated discs which I faced with a lot of positive energy, looking for alternatives which helped me to improve my health condition, without complaining, because I was already 40 and I was aliveand that´s why every single morning I saw everyday as a challenge to confront . the doctors taught me that my body would be the best source of information to reduce the pain suffered by people with some herniated discs .Teaching and learning have always been passions in my professional and personal development.
Talking about heroes, saying is more or less easy but doing much more complex .Above all in silence, with perseverance and order. Well, I feel like a hero because the strengths that I have I use every day to improve my personal development.
Technically I have a degenerative disease of the nervous system that compromises the individual’s ability to move. Initially the disease produces a body weakness progressing to paralysis affecting motor autonomy, oral communication, swallowing and breathing. However, the senses, the intellect, the musculature of the eyes, the heart and the functions of the bladder, the intestines and the sexual muscles remain intact. The ALS attacks the nerve cells responsible for controlling the voluntary muscles (motor neurons or motor neurons). These cells are located in the brain stem and in the spinal cord, and are normally activated when the mind gives the order of movement. The motor neurons do not have the capacity to reproduce again or to repair themselves, in such a way that once they die, there is no way to recover them. So we have to learn to live with the strongest motor neurons and communicate with the world with those that are alive and are really “hard”, moving the muscles that have touched each one.
For this reason, my job is to prevent motor neurons from dying. For this, here are many actions that I have programmed in my agenda that nobody will “certify” that is contributing me, whether is good or bad. Therefore I´m taking the risk with courage and passion and without fear of adventure. It´s like when you start a stage of the Camino de Santiago without knowing the forces, the orography, the climatology are going to be coordinated to achieve the proposed stage and therefore we look inside to see If we can take the next step.
The medical system helps a lot to have information about the state of health, identify and measure the symptoms and see the evolutions by comparative means. Therefore, I´m given to the system to know and access to this information. As I said before, I work in parallel with the help of friends and family who have explored improvements in their health by going to homeopathic or similar techniques. Everyday that passes I observe the stability of my health, I give more value to these techniques although I can´t know what works best, which doctor contributes more, which of the family councils or friends are more efficient. So I have to guide by my instinct, which is basic: I´m going to try it if it´s not incompatible with what Im doing and If It doesn´t have side effects that I can´t live with. Therefore, I´m taking an average of 44 pharmaceutical and homeopathic products or doses or whatever you want to call it. It´s not easy, not at all. But we had to live this episode of life in the era of new technologies to make it possible to carry an app on the mobile phone that helps us to control and track what we have to take at any moment and, above all, if the head fails at some point, the ir the technology that fails the least.
There is no doubt that the biggest affliction to have, the one that costs me most , is the one that was related to my profession: frequent oratory and now I can´t speak fluently withoutsounding really disabled . Obviously, what I´m doing is to try and not feel bad with this deficiency and to work with speech therapy and get down to work continuously in my daily life. I even dare to speak in public in front of my friends and family knowing that I was going to seem like a drunk, with the standing as a teacher. I have overcome, perfectly that impression, in such a way that nowadays it doesn’t´ deter me to speak, although I know that my tone doesn´t sound so good, nor my pronunciation, nor my mixture with emotions or food. It´s also true that in the end, the most of the people with whom I share the dialogue have sympathy with my situation in a commited way and make an effort to understand what I´m saying . It´s like when we travel abroad and we are interested in what the “foreigner” is offering us, the more we are interested in the subject or the person who proposes it to us the more we understand the language.
Adelante à Let´s go in Spanish.
ELA, esclerosis lateral amiotrófica = ALS, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Having a good digital reputation is important to the success of your business. Check out this guide for a few tips and tricks on building a great reputation.
Did you know that 82% of consumers read online reviews for local businesses? It’s the new word-of-mouth marketing. And if the word is positive, you’ll see flourishing results.
This means it’s high time to invest in your digital reputation.
What is your digital reputation, and how do you build a good one? Here’s a quick guide to the basics of digital reputation and a few steps you can take to build yours.
What is a Digital Reputation?
Your digital reputation is the positive perception of you, your brand, or your business based on information that appears about you online. Another way to think of it is the public’s opinion of you based on what they see online, or how they interact with you online.
Think of it like meeting someone for the first time. If they’ve heard of you before, or other people have discussed you before, your reputation precedes you. The same thing goes for your digital reputation. It shapes the expectations people have of you and your business.
What Determines Your Online Reputation?
Much like your personal reputation, your online reputation is an amalgamation of factors. Anything that represents your business or the way you do business online is a representation of your online reputation.
Your social media is an excellent example, but so is your website, your content, your online reviews, the search results when someone Googles your name, and even how fast your team responds to questions online.
Think about the last time you Googled “lunch near me”. Did you look at the stars and the recent reviews? Did you choose based on those stars and reviews? Most people do, which means they’re forming opinions about you before they ever interact with you.
That’s your digital reputation in action.
And while many businesses think reputation is something that happens to you, it’s actually something you can shape. Every time you engage with the public through social media posts or another positive review, it’s an opportunity to bolster your reputation.
This is what we call reputation management, and it’s based on the fundamental understanding that your business reputation matters.
Why Your Company Reputation Matters
As Warren Buffet once said, it takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. And in business, you ruin your stock prices in the process.
For example, did you know that executives estimate 44% of their market value is directly attributable to the CEO’s reputation?
In plain English? That means your reputation is both a repository of shareholder value and a means to grow it.
How to Build a Digital Reputation
So, how do you build a digital reputation–a good one, that is? To borrow a cliche, one brick at a time.
The reality is that no one tactic will save your business. No one tactic will make your business flourish, either. It’s all about consistency and building a positive reputation across the board over time.
If you’re new to digital reputation management, your best bet is to bring in the pros–like any other form of marketing, reputation management is a full-time job, and you want to make sure it’s done right.
That said, there are things you can do to help yourself outside of hiring a professional. Here are two things every business should try:
1. Review Encouragement Platform
One of the best things you can do for your digital reputation is to encourage reviews–preferably positive ones.
To be clear, you should not bribe customers into leaving good reviews. That’s unethical. But you can encourage customers to leave feedback. Most people are reasonable and fair, and simply asking for feedback often bolsters your rating on its own.
To do this, work with your marketing team to identify areas where you could encourage feedback, like immediately after a purchase. Make it quick and unobtrusive and so easy a toddler could do it.
You should also incentivize employees to capture positive feedback, as this motivates them to encourage feedback.
2. Claim Your Listings
Did you know that competitors can and often do claim your business listings? It might sound ridiculous, but it’s a common competitive tactic–it allows them to manage your reputation their way, i.e. a way that works out in their favor instead of yours.
So, it’s time to claim your Google My Business listing.
If you need to create a listing, sign in through Google My Business, create an account, and follow the prompts.
Once you’ve filled out essential business information (like your name, address, phone number, and business category) you’ll be asked to verify it.
If you get an onscreen message someone else has verified your business profile even though you know no one at your company did, you can claim ownership of the listing.
Even if you didn’t create a Google My Business listing, there’s a chance you already have one. You can claim it by searching your business name in Google Maps, selecting the right one, and click Claim This Business and Manage Now.
You’ll have to verify the listing, then follow the onscreen prompts.
Once you have your listing, managing it is a full-time business in and of itself. For example, this is the spot where many people leave reviews, so you have to be responsive.
Let’s Build a Business Reputation You Can Be Proud Of
You know your business. And we know digital reputation management.
So if you’re ready to take charge of your digital reputation, get in touch today to learn how our team can empower your business online.

HoloMonitor M4FL in the Spotlight:
A Recap of EACR and ISSCR 2023
Recapping the recent events of ISSCR 2023 and EACR 2023. We are thrilled to share the exciting experiences we had as a company and the launch of our latest product HoloMonitor M4FL. Being part of these scientific conferences was an incredible opportunity for us to connect with leading scientists, key stakeholders, and professionals in the life science industry from around the world.
EACR 2023 in Turin
Our team of Lisa Lindström, Amandeep Dhillon and Lisa Bodily was present at booth #101 at EACR 2023. We showcased our latest non-invasive live cell analysis tools for cancer research and had great discussions at the poster sessions.
HoloMonitor M4FL World Premiere at EACR and ISSCR 2023
The highlight of both conferences was the world premiere of our latest innovation, the HoloMonitor M4FL system. Our new live cell imaging system combines holography and fluorescence imaging. This enables researchers to obtain unparalleled quantitative live cell data while minimizing light exposure and reducing phototoxicity. The positive feedback from conference attendees confirmed that HoloMonitor M4FL opens up new possibilities. This includes various new research applications, for example, co-culture or cell death assays.
We want to say a massive thank you to everyone who visited our booths and explored our non-invasive tools. And to all of you who engaged in great discussions about how our technology advances research within oncology, stem cells and regenerative medicine!
This world premiere of HoloMonitor M4FL at these scientific conferences marks an important milestone in our journey of pushing the boundaries of non-invasive live cell imaging. Thank you once again to all the attendees, organizers, and partners who made these events a resounding success.

According to Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, former Cowboys linebacker Victor Butler visited with the Browns Monday, but left without a contract and is "headed to Philly" to visit with the Eagles.
Butler, 25, was a fourth-round draft choice of the Cowboys in 2009 and was a key reserve player in Dallas. Last season, he played in all 16 games and made two starts, recording 23 combined tackles and three sacks. Despite playing behind DeMarcus Ware and Anthony Spencer, the 6-2, 245-pound Butler still has 11 career sacks to his name.
The Eagles had reportedly been interested in Butler earlier in free agency.

Imagine you are given a pill to swallow that granted you with a superpower, albeit in a temporary manner.
Such is the setup behind Netflix’s not-so-high-concept Project Power, which instantly reminded me of Neil Burger’s Limitless. To refresh your memory, the aforementioned 2011 sci-fi thriller involves a struggling writer played by Bradley Cooper discovers a newfound potential after swallowing a mysterious pill. The pill itself contains a super drug that will unlock a person’s full capability one-hundred per cent.
In Project Power, the movie centres around a new drug in the form of an illuminated capsule that has been hitting the streets of New Orleans. The drug in question provides a five minutes’ worth of a varied superpower ability for whoever ends up popping it into their mouth.
A dedicated New Orleans cop (Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s Frank) is looking to stop the organisation that supplies the drug in the first place. By any means necessary to the point that he’s willing to fight the crime by taking the pill himself. He teams up with Robin (Dominique Fishback), both an informant and an aspiring rapper who happens to be one of the drug-dealing teenagers selling the pills.
Elsewhere, Art a.k.a. The Major (Jamie Foxx) is an angry ex-soldier on a personal quest to locate his kidnapped daughter (Kyanna Simpson’s Tracy). And his only hope to fulfil his mission is enlisting the help of Robin.
Mattson Tomlin’s screenplay, which mixes the currently-in-demand superhero formula with a gritty action thriller plays things pretty straightforward. Frankly, it’s nothing that you have never seen it before. Right to the extent where the superhero genre itself heavily indebted to Marvel comics, namely Fantastic Four, X-Men and The Incredible Hulk.
Co-directors Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman brought their A-games when comes to the movie’s visual stylings. They collaborate with their Nerve cinematographer Michael Simmonds again, infusing the streets of New Orleans with the familiar nighttime glow.
And just like that 2016 techno-thriller, Joost and Schulman have the eyes for staging some thrilling and at times, visually propulsive set-pieces. The earlier scene involving Gordon-Levitt’s Frank chasing a bank robber with both invisible and camouflaged abilities is worth mentioning here. At one point, there ‘s a seemingly continuous 360-degree take shot from the inner perspective of a see-through chamber as we witness Foxx’s Art taking down the guards on the outside. And while the special effects are devoid of anything original, they remain cool and entertaining enough to look at.
Project Power also benefits from a better-than-average cast, beginning with Jamie Foxx’s committed performance as a desperate individual who got nothing to lose as long as he’s able to find his daughter at all cost. It’s the kind of a no-nonsense portrayal that he’s good at.
His co-star, Dominique Fishback delivers a solid supporting turn as Robin while the long-missed Joseph Gordon-Levitt, recently seen in 7500, deserves equal mention as Frank. My only gripe is that his role feels as if he’s rehashing the same John Blake character in The Dark Knight Rises (2012). But even for all the familiarity, he manages to nail his role well enough in this movie.
Project Power is far from a great action/superhero-movie hybrid but remains decent enough for what it is. However, the nearly 2-hour length could have used some tightening in terms of its pacing. The final third-act, which takes place in a cargo ship, tends to lag behind.

Bangor Wastewater Project Scoops Engineering Excellence Award
04 January 2016 14:56
The NI Water team working on the Bangor Sewerage Improvement Programme has scooped a prestigious CEEQUAL award (Civil Engineering Environmental Quality Assessment) in recognition of their work to upgrade a Pumping Station at Luke’s Point, Ballyholme in Bangor, as part of the overall programme of improvements.
The scheme will improve the sewerage infrastructure in the Bangor area, improving the water quality in Ballyholme strand and will help to meet Northern Ireland Environment Agency Standards (NIEA).
This CEEQUAL award aims to assist clients, designers and contractors to deliver improved project specification, design and construction of civil engineering projects. It celebrates the commitment of the civil engineering industry to achieve high environmental, economic and social performance. It rewards project and contract teams that go the extra mile to achieve distinctive environmental and social performance in their work.
Bill Gowdy Director of Engineering Procurement at NI Water said:
“This award is a great achievement for the Luke’s Point team who received an “excellent” whole team award. The team successfully overcame many engineering and environmental challenges to complete a successful sustainable sewerage Improvement Project.
“The work at Luke’s Point is part of the overall Bangor Sewerage Improvement Project, which represents an investment of approximately £8 million to upgrade and increase the capacity of the sewerage infrastructure in the area, achieving compliance with NIEA standards and EU directives for bathing water quality.”
“We worked closely with our entire project team to achieve this award, including contractor BSG Civil Engineering and AECOM.”

By Dr Suzanne Bartolini, Naturopathic Doctor
As the warmer weather falls upon us, many people begin to experience the discomforts of allergies. Symptoms can range from runny nose and sneezing, itchy, watery eyes, recurring ear and sinus congestion or infections, headaches, skin rashes, hives, general fatigue, and the list goes on… Allergies are brought on by a hyper-sensitive immune response to several substances, whether they are inside our homes or in the environment. This includes pollens, mold spores, dust, dander from household pets, dust mites, certain foods in our diets, etc. So what can we do?
Here are a few tips to stop allergies from taking over this summer:
• Rinse your nasal passageways daily – Studies have shown that nasal irrigation is effective for adults as well as children. Allergen irritants can be rinsed out of your nasal passages using a simple warm saline solution with a netti pot or squeeze bottle.
• Try self-acupressure – There is an acupressure point on either side of your nostrils where your cheeks and nose meet. Apply moderate pressure and massage this area with your fingers for 2-3 minutes.
• Eat foods that strengthen your immune system – Foods rich in antioxidants such as leafy green vegetables improve immunity, which in turn improves allergies. A large part of our immune system lies in our gastrointestinal tract so good probiotics are also beneficial.
• Incorporate anti-inflammatory fruits into your diet – Fruits such as papaya, kiwi, and pineapple contain bromelain, which is an anti-inflammatory enzyme.
• Avoid foods that irritate the immune system and produce excessive mucous - This includes refined and packaged foods, sugars, caffeine, dairy products, and certain grains to name a few.
• Drink green tea – Some teas contain natural antihistamines. Since histamines are released during an allergic reaction, incorporating natural antihistamines will help the immune system.
• Stay well-hydrated - Water is important to keep the sinuses hydrated and is essential for proper lymphatic drainage. Adequate water intake will flush excess mucous and clear toxins.
• Don’t forget simple things like washing hands after working or playing outside and bathing in the evening to keep pollens out of your bedding.
*Each person is unique. The above suggestions are simply the beginning steps for eliminating allergies. If you have been suffering from allergies, you may want to consider a Naturopathic approach, which strengthens the body and immune system through proper diet strategies, cleansing, acupuncture, and balanced supplementation. Book in with Dr Suzanne Bartolini to learn more about how a Naturopathic Doctor can help. Dr Bartolini is in clinic on Wednesdays

This widget will help you to start your prefered apps or call your best friends - but with style!
!NEW! moved swipe functions to new free app 'CircleLauncher Swipe'
You can add some frequently used apps or contacts to this launcher and start those apps or contacts with one click from a circle, a horizontal or a vertical line. Use the included launcher icons, load your own image or use a icon from any icon pack (CircleLauncher icon packs, ADW and Go Launcher icon packs supported). If you slide over the icons, they are animated a little bit mac-like ... just try it!
Parallax FX [beta]: look behind the widget like on iOS7! This effect can be enabled in the settings: 'More Settings' > 'More ...' > 'Parallax FX' - the result is highly dependent on the sensor in your phone ... some are perfect, other will not work very well. Looks best with '3D Image Live Wallpaper' :-)
Additional features in the full version:
- custom icons for the icon on the homescreen
- support for ADW icon packs for the icon on the homescreen
- vertical and horizontal launcher versions
Some icons in the screenshots are from 'CircleLauncher IconPack One', 'Minimal UI', 'Glasklart Go Nova Apex Theme', 'Circles Theme', 'Motif' and 'Rain' - the clock is 'lockscreen watch'.
Please don't move the app to the sd card - it won't work!
If you noticed a bug or have any questions, please send me an eMail.
Directly call phone numbers
- direct calls for the contact version direct from the app
Read contact data

SAN FRANCISCO — The point out legal professional general’s office has declined a request by San Francisco’s freshly appointed district lawyer to just take about a case involving a relative of her partner and a different linked to Mayor London Breed’s brother.
District Attorney Brooke Jenkins was appointed by Breed previously this month to change ousted District Attorney Chesa Boudin.
Soon after her appointment on July 8, Jenkins asked Attorney General Rob Bonta to consider more than the scenario of Breed’s brother, Napoleon Brown, and the prosecution of two men charged in the killing of Jerome Mallory, a cousin of Jenkins’ husband.
The Attorney General’s Office advised Jenkins in a July 22 letter the San Francisco District Attorney’s Office environment has “taken suitable steps to build an moral wall all over DA Jenkins, which stays in area and eliminates any moral concerns about the situations.”
In 2018, Breed was fined $2,500 for using official stationery to publish Gov. Jerry Brown asking to commute her brother’s sentence.
Brown has served additional than 50 % of a 44-yr sentence and is asking for a reduction in his prison sentence for a 2000 armed robbery and the death of the getaway vehicle driver, who was his girlfriend. A resentencing listening to for Brown is scheduled for Aug. 15 at a San Francisco court docket.
Mallory, 18, was fatally shot in San Francisco’s Bayview District in 2020.
Jenkins stated in a statement Wednesday that she will not get involved in the instances “to keep away from any look in any respect of a conflict.”
“I am discovering no matter whether other local agencies may be an option. Irrespective, these situations will be managed in accordance to the legislation and with integrity,” she included.

In today’s digital age, dating has taken on a whole new dimension. With the rise of online dating platforms and the advent of social media, the dating landscape has become more diverse and complex than ever before. Whether you’re a seasoned dater or just dipping your toes into the world of romance, understanding the nuances of modern dating is essential.
The Online Dating Phenomenon
Online dating has revolutionized the way people meet and connect. With a few swipes or clicks, you can browse through a vast pool of potential partners. However, it’s important to approach online dating with caution. While it offers convenience and access to a larger dating pool, it also comes with potential pitfalls such as catfishing, ghosting, and misleading profiles. It’s crucial to maintain a healthy skepticism and take the time to get to know someone before rushing into a relationship.
Authenticity in the Digital Age
In the age of social media, authenticity can be elusive. People often present idealized versions of themselves online, carefully curating their profiles to showcase only the best aspects of their lives. However, it’s important to remember that no one is perfect. When dating, it’s essential to be genuine and transparent. Building a connection based on honesty and authenticity is more likely to lead to a meaningful and lasting relationship.
The Importance of Communication
Effective communication is the cornerstone of any successful relationship. In the realm of dating, clear and open communication is crucial. Whether it’s discussing your expectations, boundaries, or expressing your feelings, being able to communicate effectively helps build trust and understanding between partners. Remember to actively listen, be respectful, and express yourself honestly to foster a healthy and thriving connection.
Dating can be a rollercoaster of emotions, and it’s important to prioritize self-care throughout the process. Take time for yourself, engage in activities that bring you joy, and maintain a healthy balance between dating and your personal life. It’s also crucial to set boundaries and recognize when a relationship isn’t serving your emotional well-being. Remember, your happiness and well-being should always be a top priority.
Rejection is an inevitable part of dating. Not every connection will lead to a long-term relationship, and that’s okay. It’s important to approach rejection with resilience and a positive mindset. Remember that rejection is not a reflection of your worth as a person, but simply an indication of compatibility. Use rejection as an opportunity for growth and self-reflection, and keep an open mind as you continue to explore the dating world.
The Power of Patience
In our fast-paced society, patience can sometimes feel like a lost art

About Pumpkin Drop Cookies
Nothing quite says fall quite like pumpkin flavored anything, and one of my absolute favorites are these pumpkin drop cookies.
And sure, maybe that’s because I adore pumpkin. Maybe it’s the amazing combination of soft cookie and crunchy walnut. Or maybe it’s the fact that I don’t need to whip out my non-existent baking skills because these cookies can be lumpy and unpretty and it’s totally okay.
But no matter the reason, these cookies have become a must-make for fall comfort snack food in our house.
Why are they called drop cookies?
To put it simply, drop cookies refer to how the cookie batter is placed on a baking sheet.
Because the dough isn’t placed. It’s dropped.
The idea is simple: scoop out a small amount of dough, hold it a few inches above the baking sheet, and let the dough drop and hit the baking sheet.
And better yet, you don’t need to fix or “neaten up” these cookies. The idea is to let the cookie dough fall where it may, so they might be lumpy or uneven – and that’s totally okay. The messier these cookies are the more identifiable they will be as true drop cookies.
Do you need to chill the dough?
When it comes to baking cookies, one of the most important steps is whether or not you chill the dough.
And for this particular recipe, you do not need to chill the dough.
The “beauty” of a drop cookie is the motion of letting the dough drop to the baking sheet, giving these cookies a uniquely messy look. The dough wouldn’t drop or splay as well if it was made firmer by chilling.
Do you have to use raisins or walnuts?
This recipe is written to include raisins for a touch of subtle sweetness and walnuts for a little texture, but ultimately, both ingredients are optional (or can be replaced with other things you might like more, such as chocolate chips or different types of nuts).
However, keep in mind that omitting raisins or walnuts completely will result in a smaller yield for this recipe (up to 5-10 fewer cookies per batch).
Pumpkin Puree vs. Pumpkin Pie Filling
When it comes to holiday treats, you’re going to be faced with two types of canned pumpkin in the baking aisle:
Pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie filling.
And while these types might seem interchangeable, there is a slight (yet significant) difference.
With pumpkin puree, the only contents are cooked and mashed pumpkin (or a variety of winter gourds), with no added flavors or spices. Pumpkin pie filling is made with cooked and mashed pumpkin, too, but it also has flavor added, typically with pumpkin pie spice.
The key difference here is convenience. If you don’t have (or don’t want to buy) pumpkin pie spice, using pumpkin pie filling can save you some time and effort; you simply add it to the recipe and skip measuring the spices. However, it does limit your ability to control the taste, and if you’re using the pumpkin pie filling with other flavors, there’s no way to guarantee how they’ll interact.
This is why you’ll see many homemade recipes use pumpkin puree (which, again, is just the gourds, no added flavor) and season and spice the recipe by hand as needed. It is a tad more work but it also gives you more control over the flavor of your fall treats.
How long are drop cookies good for?
Once prepared and cooked, these pumpkin drop cookies can be stored in a sealed container on the counter for up to five to seven days.
Can you freeze pumpkin drop cookies?
If you’d like to always have a batch of these cookies on hand, the easiest way is to freeze them for later. There are two ways you can do this.
To freeze the raw dough:
- Mix all ingredients, then scoop out about one tablespoon of dough (the same way you would before baking).
- Drop cookie dough on a tray and freeze for at least two hours or until outside is no longer tacky. Once firm, transfer to a freezer bag or a storage container with a sealable lid.
- Drop cookies can be stored for up to six months. When ready to bake, thaw in the refrigerator overnight, then bake like normal.
To freeze the baked cookies:
- Bake and allow to cool completely.
- Store cookies in a single layer in a freezer bag or storage container. If you need to stack the cookies, separate each layer with a sheet of wax paper.
- Baked cookies and be stored for up to three months.
Notes & tips for drop cookies
- If you’re doing a lot of baking, I highly recommend having some silicone baking mats on hand. Baking cookies takes enough time without having to cut or measure parchment paper. Or if you prefer using parchment paper, you can try using pre-cut parchment paper sheets instead.
- Plus, some quality baking sheets are a must for a cookie baking extravaganza!
- For this recipe, I highly recommend using a stand mixer or a hand mixer. This recipe would be difficult to make by hand with a whisk.

How to make pumpkin drop cookies
This next part is only a photo tutorial of the recipe steps. If you’re looking for the full recipe measurements and instructions, scroll down to Recipe Details.
Step 1 – In a medium bowl, mix together the following dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and nutmeg, then set the bowl aside for now.
Step 3 – Drop the mixer speed to low and mix in the pumpkin puree, egg, vanilla, and dry ingredients.
Step 4 – Turn off the mixer and use a spatula to fold the raisins and walnuts into the batter.
Step 5 – Scoop up about one tablespoon of cookie dough and “drop” it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. The idea with drop cookies is for them to be imperfect, so don’t worry if the cookie dough is a little rough around the edges. Repeat this step until all the cookie dough has been used.
Step 6 – Bake!
Step 7 – Serve and enjoy!
Pumpkin Drop Cookies
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and nutmeg. Set bowl aside.
- Drop mixer speed to low and add egg, pumpkin, and vanilla extract. Mix until all ingredients are just blended, particularly the egg, about 1-2 minutes.
- Keeping mixer speed on low, slowly blend in dry ingredients, about 1/2 cup at a time. Mix until dry ingredients incorporate and there are minimal clumps, about 2-3 minutes.
- Remove bowl from mixer. Add raisins and walnuts to bowl, then use a spatula to gently fold them into the batter.
- Use a spoon to scoop out about 1 tablespoon (less or more, as desired) of cookie dough. Hold the spoon about 2 inches above the baking sheet, then use another spoon to scrape down and allow the dough to “drop” on the baking sheet. If possible, refrain from fixing the cookie dough look neater; drop cookies should be a bit uneven. Repeat this step until all dough is used, placing cookies about 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.
- Bake cookies for 8-10 minutes. Tops of cookies should no longer appear damp and have some resistance when touched (but not too firm).
- Let cookies rest on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
- Serve cookies immediately.

Posted: 3:40 p.m.
Paul Brown Stadium's scoreboard crew keeps putting up points with its third straight national award under the direction of JungleVision producer Scott Simpson.
The Information Display and Entertainment Association (IDEA), the premier professional association for the big screen/game entertainment industry, recently recognized the Bengals and PBS with the Golden Matrix Award as best in the nation for football stadium.
In the previous two years the Bengals got a Golden Matrix for Best Music Videos, one of which was "Fear 'da Tiger" by Bootsy Collins.
"We're pleased with the industry recognition that comes with this award," said Vince Cicero, the Bengals director of corporate sales and marketing, in Wednesday's press release. "The focus ... has always been to deliver the very best product for our football-savvy fans and their enjoyment of the game."
FRIDAY NIGHT TV LIGHTS: The Bengals have been notified that PBS is going to be live Aug. 31 when they play defending Super Bowl champion Indianapolis on the NFL Network in the preseason finale.
The 7:30 game is the last of eight NFL preseason games scheduled for NFL Network during the 2007 preseason. The Network broadcast 44 other preseason games on tape delay.
NFL Network plans to simulcast using feeds from both the Bengals and Colts preseason networks. The game still airs on the Bengals preseason flagship (Channel 12 in Cincinnati), as well as on preseason affiliate stations in Dayton, Columbus, Lexington and Louisville
That makes for back-to-back PBS games on national TV because the Bengals open the season with a 7 p.m. Monday game on ESPN Sept. 10 against another set of defending champs, the AFC North Ravens. Three weeks later PBS goes prime time for the last time in '07 in another ESPN Monday-nighter against New England.

What Is a Puppy Drum Fish?
The puppy drum fish, also known as the red drum fish, is a popular saltwater game fish found in the coastal waters of the Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of Mexico, and the southern United States. Its scientific name is Sciaenops ocellatus, and it belongs to the drum family, which includes other well-known fish species like black drum and speckled trout.
The puppy drum fish gets its name from the drumming sound it produces by vibrating specialized muscles against its air bladder. This sound is often heard during courtship and is used as a means of communication. These fish are known for their reddish-brown coloration, which fades to a silvery-white belly. They also have a distinctive black spot near the base of their tail, which is believed to resemble an eye and possibly confuses predators.
These fish are highly sought after by anglers due to their impressive size, hard-fighting nature, and delicious flavor. Puppy drum fish can reach up to 40 inches in length and weigh over 50 pounds, making them a thrilling catch for fishing enthusiasts. They are also known for their ability to put up a strong fight, often making long runs and powerful head shakes.

IFloodS Observes Severe Storm Outbreak
Credit: Walt Petersen /NASA .
On Wednesday afternoon, June 12, a severe storm outbreak developed and moved across central and eastern Iowa, and then western Illinois, spawning huge thunderstorms and several tornadoes. NASA's Polarimetric (NPOL) precipitation radar, currently deployed in Iowa as part of the Iowa Flood Studies field campaign for the Global Precipitation Measurement mission, rapidly scanned these storms as they moved across the state.
The NPOL radar observed numerous distinctive hook echoes in many supercells, one only 25 miles (40 kilometers) to the north. The “hook” feature is produced by rain, hail or other debris being wrapped into the mesocyclone of the storm and is historically considered a classic indicator for potential tornado-production. In fact, tornadoes were visibly confirmed in and near the towns of Belmond, Latimer and Hampton, Iowa to the northwest of NPOL.
The Iowa Flood Studies (IFloodS) experiment is a ground validation field campaign being conducted in advance of the 2014 launch of GPM Core Observatory to evaluate uncertainties in satellite retrievals of rainfall, and to find the best ways of using the satellite estimates in hydrologic applications related to flood prediction. The field campaign, which is taking place from May 1 to June 15, is a partnership between NASA and the Iowa Flood Center at the University of Iowa, Iowa City.
The NPOL radar and a second NASA radar deployed in the field, the Dual-Frequency, Dual-Polarimetric Doppler Radar (D3R) are managed by NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center out of the Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia.

If you are a construction worker in Iowa, you will likely know that you should never work at an elevated level without a fall protection harness. However, have you received training in the proper use of such a harness? Do you know that, even if it arrests your fall, your life may still be at risk? Suspension trauma could cause your death if you hang in the harness for too long.
The purpose of a fall harness and its lanyards is to prevent you from striking the ground or another surface at a lower level. Once it has succeeded in that role, the harness can become a life-threatening hazard.
After an arrested fall, suspended in your fall harness, you will likely experience physiological effects that could cause your death if rescuers do not remove you promptly. This insidious danger follows the following course of reactions:
- Harness hang syndrome and orthostatic intolerance are other names for suspension trauma, which occurs when your body remains upright without movement.
- Hanging without movement prevents blood from following the normal flow of blood through the heart and lungs and back to the legs. Instead, blood pools in the legs because the relaxed state of your leg muscles allows the expansion of the veins in the legs.
- Without the normal blood flow, your brain, lungs and other organs will suffer oxygen starvation.
- The lack of oxygen in your legs will cause the blood cells to start the anaerobic respiration process in desperation to produce energy.
- This process breaks down the blood sugars into lactic acid. When lactic acid builds up, it can become life-threatening when rescuers put your body in a horizontal position after your rescue.
What are the symptoms of suspension trauma?
Each incident is unique, and while some victims develop symptoms quickly, the bodies of others may take up to 20 minutes to react. Injuries suffered during the fall will affect the level of trauma you experience and the time it will take to show the following symptoms:
- Along with a numb feeling in your legs, you might become sweaty, and your skin might feel clammy and cold while your pulse speeds up.
- Nausea may follow along with breath shortness, and you might become lightheaded and dizzy.
- As your vision becomes blurry, you might eventually lose consciousness due to the lack of movement.
- If you faint, your blood pressure will drop, and there will be even less oxygen going to the brain.
- At this stage the situation becomes critical. If rescuers do not remove you from the harness within five minutes, brain damage might begin.
- If you remain suspended and unconscious for longer, severe brain damage can follow. Organ failure can occur, and you might suffocate and die.
Your rights to safety
While this might seem like a heartless rendition of a potentially life-threatening situation, it is meant to underscore the importance of learning all about fall protection. The fact that you strap on a safety harness may not save your life. Furthermore, learning all about safe rescue techniques is equally crucial because the danger continues even after a victim is back on the ground.
If you are a victim of a construction accident that left you suspended in a fall harness for some time, your workers’ compensation benefits may take care of medical expenses and lost wages. You can utilize the services of an experienced workers’ compensation attorney to navigate the claims process on your behalf.

The Isibindi Safe Park opened its doors to the community of Loeriesfontein, late 2018 and has already carved a place in the hearts of the wider community where it plays a crucial role. This month the spotlight is turned to throw light on National Child Protection Week.
The Safe Park was built to provide a safe and caring environment for children and youth who are especially at risk and vulnerable, within the community of Loeriesfontein. It provides access to the services of family-focused professional Child and Youth Care Workers (CYCWs), offering continuous support to children and families.
June is a particularly significant period, with additional interventions taking place, both in the lead up and during National Child Protection Week, which will be commemorated between 28 May and 4 June, themed “Let Us All Protect Children to Move South Africa Forward”.
Despite South African laws that govern the treatment and protection of children, high levels of poverty, violence and inequality means that children are susceptible to exploitation, abuse and neglect.
“This is why children need special protection, because they are among the most vulnerable members of society and through Isibindi, children and their families are supported by the CYCWs who provide specialised child and youth care services, not just at the Safe Park, but also in schools and at home too,” said Marita, Isibindi Project Manager.
Various stakeholders work together with Isibindi’s core team to increase awareness and impact around National Child Protection Week, including SANCA and the SAPS, who recently presented a discussion on crime and domestic violence, in addition to a number of child and youth focused activities.
The Safe Park infrastructure houses an office, homework area and a kitchen, which serves lunch for the children. Outdoor activities are conducted in the secure enclosed park and co-ordinated by the trained Child and Youth Care Workers who also provide care, support, and facilitate school homework.
The centre takes care up to two hundred children a day and served an estimated 4 500 meals over the December and March school holiday period alone.
Whilst Isibindi is aimed at children between the ages of 3 and 18, the programme also reaches out to provide support to the whole family, when needed, through home visits. Furthermore, by working in close collaboration with the South African National Council on Alcoholism (SANCA) and the South African Police Service (SAPS) the Safe Park is able to offer ongoing interventions and programmes that cover topics such as crime, domestic violence and substance abuse.
“The Safe Park is fundamental to the community, with children and caregivers turning to the resident Child and Youth Care Workers (CYCWs) at the Safe Park when in need of assistance,” concluded Vanessa Fredericks, Economic Development Manager for Loeriesfontein Wind Farm and Khobab Wind Farm, providers of the funding for the Safe Park’s construction, training CYCWs and continued support of this fundamental ongoing social intervention programme.
Loeriesfontein 2 Wind Farm
In December 2017, Loeriesfontein 2 Wind Farm (138 MW) achieved its Commercial Operations Date on schedule and budget as part of Bid Window 3 of the South African government’s Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme.
Situated in the Northern Cape, the site was chosen for its excellent wind resource, its proximity to national roads for transport, construction conditions, and support from local stakeholders and municipality. The Wind Farm consists of 61 turbines.

After trying 2 other passport photos places for my kids that were either not able to get photos taken or were too busy, we called this place after randomly seeing on a google search. The people here were so helpful, found a slot free for us, and were great at getting the kids to take nice pics. Also they were very reasonable. Will come back here first if I ever need fingerprints or notary or passport photos again.
It usually takes around 10 minutes from the moment you are summoned to the time all of your fingerprints are recorded.
Many organizations and programs accept fingerprints provided online for purposes such as adoption and obtaining a weapons permit. Fingerprints will also be required as part of a background check for some vocations and professions. Nurse practitioners, doctors, pharmacists, dentists, and others are among them.
When doing live scan fingerprinting, no ink is utilized. To capture your prints, you just contact a clean piece of glass.

Zach Ertz Ruled Out, Lane Johnson Questionable for Sunday vs Giants
The Eagles are getting one of key player back on offense for Sunday season's finale against the Giants, but will also be without a key piece.
Per the teams official injury report, the team has ruled out tight end Zach Ertz, while running back Jordan Howard will return after missing the past six weeks with a shoulder injury.
"You guys saw the hit last week," Head coach Doug Pedefson said when describing Ertz's injury. "We want to be as transparent as we can with the reports. He is dealing with not only the rib, but the back as well."
Ertz was back out on the practice field on Friday, but he will not be able to help the Eagles on Sunday, where they need a win to win the NFC East.
"Obviously medically I want to make sure he's 100%. Zach is a tough guy," Pederson said. "I know he wants to be out there, but at the same time, I'm not going to risk anything further for him personally."
As for Howard, who last played in Week 9 against Chicago, he was finally cleared for contact and will play on Sunday. It seems he will have limited role with Miles Sanders and Boston Scott playing so well in his absence, getting a bulk of the reps.
"Challenge is we've been planning with Miles and [RB] Boston [Scott], and Jordan gives us obviously a third back, situational guy; we understand who he is," explained Pederson.
"Again, we mentioned yesterday as far as the conditioning and the game shape and being ready, you just can't give him a full complement of plays. We don't want to necessarily disrupt what we have going, but he is a big piece obviously to our offense."
The other two key names on the injury report are starting right tackle Lane Johnson and starting cornerback Jaylen Mills, both have been listed as questionable.
"There is progress. He is doing well," Pederson said about Johnson. "We’ll see again today how he does on land before we make a determination for this game."
Wide receiver Nelson Agholor will also miss the game with a knee injury.

The IG Metall trade union has sharply criticized the cutback of hundreds of jobs at the Volkswagen plant in Zwickau. This is a personal catastrophe for those affected and their families, said the first authorized representative in Zwickau, Thomas Knabel, after a works meeting on Thursday. In addition, many unanswered questions remained about future driving and personnel planning.
Knabel criticized the handling of temporary employees. In June, 540 contracts had indeed been de-fixed. However, all others were waiting for a clear perspective. "But together with the core workforce, they all made a decisive contribution to Zwickau's smooth transformation into the group's largest e-car plant." The fact that they would be stalled about their personal future for weeks, is a handling, "which we do not know so far at Volkswagen and also do not want to accept."
The union also sees politics in the duty and criticized Prime Minister Michael Kretschmer. "As an acting player, you move in this arena and fight for industrial jobs in Saxony, instead of allowing yourself a spectator seat in the stands," criticized Knabel. He called for Kretschmer to play a more active role in the upcoming talks on the future of electromobility at VW's Zwickau site.

In Chagas disease (ChD) caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, new biomarkers to predict chronic cardiac pathology are urgently needed. Previous studies in chagasic patients with mild symptomatology showed that antibodies against the immunodominant R3 epitope of sCha, a fragment of the human basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor like 5, correlated with cardiac pathology. To validate sCha as a biomarker and to understand the origin of anti-sCha antibodies, we conducted a multicenter study with several cohorts of chagasic patients with severe cardiac symptomatology. We found that levels of antibodies against sCha discriminated the high risk of sudden death, indicating they could be useful for ChD prognosis. We investigated the origin of the antibodies and performed an alanine scan of the R3 epitope. We identified a minimal epitope MRQLD, and a BLAST search retrieved several T. cruzi antigens. Five of the hits had known or putative functions, of which phosphonopyruvate decarboxylase showed the highest cross-reactivity with sCha, confirming the role of molecular mimicry in the development of anti-sCha antibodies. Altogether, we demonstrate that the development of antibodies against sCha, which originated by molecular mimicry with T. cruzi antigens, could discriminate electrocardiographic alterations associated with a high risk of sudden death.

These Colors Don’t Run….
With waves crashing against the seawall outside the harbor on a beautiful Friday afternoon in Monaco, Three young Americans sat down to talk. Road and Track’s Jamey Price, a young photographer working on getting a foot in the door of the F1 photography world and covering his first Monaco Grand Prix. The other two? Conor Daly from Indiana and Alexander Rossi from California, drivers aiming for F1 and currently competing in F1’s feeder series, GP2. Over and over, these young drivers are asked many of the same questions about their racing careers and future goals. But with both of them being America’s best chance for an F1 driver in the coming years, we wanted to get to know them as people.

Raspberry Seed Oil Expressed
Common Name: Raspberry Seed Oil Expressed
INCI Name: Rubus Idaeus (Raspberry) Seed Oil
Origin: France / Germany / Poland
CAS : 84929-76-0
EINECS : 284-554-0
Description: A seasonally available product from May through to July. The Seeds are recovered after juice processing of the Red Raspberry Fruit. The cleaned recovered seeds are then mechanically pressed to yield this wonderful carrier Oil.
Suggestions for Use: Raspberry seed oil has very good soothing and softening properties. Its high levels in essential fatty acids, linoleic and linolenic, not synthesized by our bodies, provides its hydrating, regenerating and restructuring properties. They contribute to the integrity of cell walls and contribute to the suppleness and beauty of the skin. Raspberry seed oil thus has anti-aging properties, imparting renewed elasticity to the epidermis. The presence of many antioxidants reinforces its anti-free radical properties.

Counseling & Counselor Education: Tests & Measures
Core Resources for Tests & Measures
It can be challenging to find the full text of tests, instruments, and measures, and includes some confusing terminology. Many well-known tests are commercial property and must be purchased; these commercially available tests are described as "published" tests. "Unpublished" tests are simply tests not sold commercially, but rather available via research articles, handbooks or other means.
You may also want to review The American Psychological Association's Finding Information About Psychological Tests guide for researchers.
Tips on Searching PsycTESTS
(The following is adapted from APA's Setting up a PsycTESTS Search.)
PsycTESTS provides information on tests mined from the scholarly literature in PsycINFO. Nearly 40,000 unique tests are represented in PsycTESTS, organized into 15 instrument types and 30 classifications.
There are a number of ways to search for a test, including the author name, keywords, test name, or test construct. (A construct is the concept the test is measuring, such as Confidence or Anxiety.)
PsycTESTS also includes limits, or controlled lists of values, that can be set before you run the search, toward the bottom of the advanced search page, or after you run the search, along the side of the search results page. Examples of these limits include:
- Administration Method – how the test is given to participants, such as Paper or Interview.
- Instrument Type – the primary testing category of the instrument, such as Checklist or Task.
- Supporting Documentation – supporting documentation types, such as instructor guide or answer sheet.

LITHONIA WOMAN CONVICTED IN SHOOTING DEATH OF HUSBAND
October 6, 2021
Fatal Shot Heard During 9-1-1 Call for Help
Decatur, Ga.- DeKalb County District Attorney Sherry Boston announces a conviction by jury trial in the murder case against a Lithonia woman accused of killing her husband. Jurors returned guilty verdicts on Saturday against 48-year-old Aimee Heyward on charges of Felony Murder, Aggravated Assault, Cruelty to Children in the First Degree and Possession of a Firearm During the Commission of a Felony in connection with the shooting death of 49-year-old Bruce Heyward.
Police were called to the couple’s Edenberry Way home in Lithonia on February 25, 2019 following reports of a ‘person shot’. Bruce Heyward was discovered in the front entryway of the home with a gunshot wound to his chest. Though he struggled to talk, he was able to tell responding officers that his wife shot him. Mr. Heyward was rushed to the hospital but passed away soon after arrival.
Prior to the deadly shooting, officers were called to the home on a domestic dispute between the husband and wife. Neither one of them was willing to leave the home for the evening, so authorities separated them into different bedrooms. In the middle of the night, the victim called 9-1-1 and reported that the Defendant had forced her way into his room and held a gun to his head. While the victim was on the phone with 9-1-1, the Defendant fired a shot, striking him in the chest. The gunshot was captured on the 9-1-1 call and heard by the couple’s 16-year-old daughter who rushed downstairs to her father’s aid.
Officers found the Defendant walking in the neighborhood with a backpack containing a spent 9mm shell casing. K9 officers found what would later be identified as the murder weapon in a storm drain not far away.
Defendant Heyward will be sentenced at a later date before DeKalb County Superior Court Judge Tangela Barrie, who presided over the trial.
The case was prosecuted by Senior Assistant District Attorneys Tauri Thomas and Oto Ekpo with assistance from DA Investigator Sam Washington and Victim Advocate Tonesha Bivins. Detective Keith McQuilkin with the DeKalb County Police Department led the initial investigation.

Contact lenses for children
There’s no ‘official’ age to start wearing contact lenses – it all depends on your child’s ability to use and look after their lenses. Children are quick learners and have proven to be just as capable at wearing lenses as adults – but we’d recommend that a parent or guardian should supervise them to start with.
Benefits of contact lenses for kids
Kids can sometimes feel self-conscious wearing glasses – contact lenses correct their vision while maintaining their natural appearance
Their full field of vision is in focus which is great for sports
They provide the freedom for kids to run around and get stuck in when they’re playing or during sports
Removes the worry about breaking or damaging their glasses (so parents will enjoy the benefits too)
Book an appointment for your child to see an optician for a contact lens assessment. They’ll decide whether they’d be a good fit and recommend the best lens type for them.
As long as your child has an up-to-date prescription, they’ll get a free trial to see if they get on with them.
If they’d like to carry on wearing contact lenses – come back in to see us in store and we’ll sort out the rest.
Types of contact lenses
Picking a contact lens type will depend on your child’s lifestyle and their prescription – they’ll be able to choose between daily, twice-monthly and monthly lenses. Our opticians are here to help you and your child find the perfect lens type.

The other day I was going over a list of the different things I do to be “active,” like weight training, hot yoga, Iyengar yoga, some time on bike, and, I added, sometimes I go for a walk. The person I was talking to said, “walking doesn’t count unless you’re really out of shape and just starting out.”
At the other extreme is what I heard when I used to attend Weight Watchers (yes, I too had my stints and am even a lifetime member–that just means that at least once I managed to reach “goal” and stay there for at least six weeks). Of course, they are wild about tracking at Weight Watchers, and you record points for food AND for activity.
And we were told to count everything from yard work to washing windows. Yes, running and swimming and cycling still counted, but if you were moving at all in a way that you normally wouldn’t, then it counted as activity and you could record points for it.
Now, I don’t track as a rule anyway, but I do have an idea in my head of a minimum amount of activity I’d like to do in a day. Roughly, I like to do at least one weight training or yoga session and at least one cardio type activity like running, riding my bike, spending a bit of time on the elliptical machine (that’s only in a pinch, in bad weather, or when I am into a really good book that I can’t put down–I read War and Peace one summer on a stationary bicycle at the Y).
But what about when I walk to the market and back (that’s a good 30 minutes), or even more, when I walk to work and back (that’s more like 70-80 minutes round trip)? It certainly tires me out, so if feels like it should “count.”
But when I use this kind of thing to replace an actual “session,” I feel like I’m cheating or getting away with something. For example, when I use the bike for commuting, I am sometimes hesitant to count it enough to replace an actual dedicated cardio session (even when endomondo tells me I’ve burned some extraordinary number of calories given the amount of enjoyment I got out of it!).
At WW, the number of activity points you could earn for an activity varied depending on the intensity with which you did the activity. So the more you exerted yourself and worked up a sweat, the more points you could earn for the time you spent doing that activity. This makes some sense.
But that brings me back to gardening. I’m sorry, but no matter how much I was urged to count stuff like that and no matter how much of a sweat I might work up out in the garden, it just doesn’t feel like it counts. Maybe it’s part of an active lifestyle, but it’s not what I think of as a workout. As an aside, I should add that I enjoy everything I do as a “workout” activity a lot more than I ever liked gardening.
I’m sure there is a middle ground between “everything counts” and “it only counts if it’s a dedicated ‘fitness’ activity.” And I think it’s incredibly important to do things that I love and not to do things where my only reason for doing them is the contribution they might make to my fitness.
Maybe a good basic guideline for what counts is that it counts if it involves physical exertion, it’s not something that you always do (for example, if I walk to work every day, then it isn’t going to count because it’s not extra), it gets your heart rate up, you work up a sweat, and also I think you have to do it for a sustained period of time.
I guess that doesn’t rule out gardening, and maybe it ends up ruling out other things that should count. But as a basic set of guidelines, it’s not a bad starting point.

Number of Americans on jobless benefits inches down for 1st time since pandemic began
The number of Americans continuing to receive government jobless benefits declined in the week ending May 16 for the first time since COVID-19 struck, even as millions of people continue to join the unemployment rolls.
The U.S. Department of Labour said 21.052 million people continued to receive benefits that week. That’s down from the record 24.912 million seen the previous week.
“The number of Americans who remain on UI is still uncomfortably high,” Bank of Montreal economist Jennifer Lee said, “but it is not at a record anymore and that is a start.”
The initial claims figure — which represents the number of people filling out applications for jobless benefits for the first time — held above two million last week for a 10th straight week amid second-wave layoffs in the private sector, such as the 12,000 announced this week by plane manufacturer Boeing.
Initial claims for state unemployment benefits totalled a seasonally adjusted 2.123 million for the week ended May 23, from a revised 2.446 million in the prior week. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast initial claims falling to 2.1 million in the latest week from the previously reported 2.438 million.
Though claims have declined steadily since hitting a record 6.867 million in late March, they have not registered below two million since mid-March. The astonishingly high level of claims has persisted even as non-essential businesses are starting to reopen after shuttering in mid-March to control the spread of COVID-19, an indication it could take a while for the economy to dig out of the coronavirus-induced slump.
“I am concerned that we are seeing a second round of private sector layoffs that, coupled with a rising number of public sector cutbacks, is driving up the number of people unemployed,” said Joel Naroff, chief economist at Naroff Economics in Holland, Pennsylvania.
“If that is the case, given the pace of reopening, we could be in for an extended period of extraordinary high unemployment. And that means the recovery will be slower and will take a lot longer.”

Touring Professional Explains Vaccine Position of Many Artists
With the recent COVID regulations announced by AEG, Maroon 5, the City of New Orleans, and other municipalities, one touring professional explains it all in a simple post.
The above entities and, I am sure many more soon to follow, are now requiring masks and proof of vaccination or negative COVID test for entry into any venue with large crowds.
I know what some of you are saying, as I've heard/read/seen it ad nauseam for the past few weeks: "If the vaccine works, why do we need masks?" "If the masks work, why do we need vaccines?"
I'm not going to rehash all that because, basically, I'm tired of hearing myself say it (do bullet-proof vests work 100% of the time? NO? But officers still wear them, right?). Anyway, whether you want to wear a mask or not is 100% on you. YOU have that right to choose. What you DON'T have the right to do is spread disease.
With that being said, there is are reasons that artists, venues, and even some cities are now requiring people to mask/vaccinate/test: 1) It protects the artists and employees who are trying to provide us with goods, services, or entertainment while they make a buck at the same time; 2) It protects us, you and me, me and you, your friends, your family, your loved ones, even people you don't like so much; and 3) IT'S THE MORAL THING TO DO. The reason we call it "civilization" is because we are supposed to be civil.
Nina Lorraine Ruckteschler is the Touring Project Manager at CID Entertainment, and in her plea for people to get vaccinated, she explains what is at risk:
Ruckteschler asks everyone who wants to go to a show to get vaccinated and, if you can't (or won't) get vaccinated, don't go to a show. She outright begs you. Then she explains:
All of us were out of work for 18 months... The unemployment ran out. We have no Union. Nothing. - Nina Lorraine Ruckteschler via Facebook
If ANY members of the crew get COVID, they are done for AT LEAST 10 days, and up to 2 weeks (quarantine time). For some artists that could be up to a dozen or so shows that they (and the fans) miss.
She goes on to explain that it may be "just a concert to you", but there are dozens of people behind the scenes who depend on these shows for their livelihood. The crew that does the load in/out, rig up/down, run sound, lights, tickets, front-of-house, back-of-house, catering - there are so many people being put at risk.
Everyone needs to take every precaution possible so as to transmit as few germs as possible. Masks slow the spread. Good hygiene slows the spread. The vaccine slows the spread and helps keep people from being hospitalized. Every. Little. Bit. Helps.
For those of you who scoff at Nina's post, I have some homework for you: go look up the word "empathy". Read the definition, and then go try to find some (I helped by linking out to the definition from Google).

When investors, analysts, and executives think about blockchain technology and the future crypto, one question keeps coming up over and over again: what does taproot mean for the Whive Protocol? This article will look at taproot and how it might affect our project. Let’s get started!
Taproot is a Bitcoin Improvement Protocol to the Bitcoin protocol that would improve privacy and security for users. The Whive protocol is a decentralized platform allowing users to create and manage digital assets. Taproot would improve the privacy and security of Whive by making it easier for users to hide their transactions from third parties. In addition, Taproot would make it more difficult for attackers to target specific users on the Whive network.
Taproot is a proposed upgrade to the Bitcoin protocol that would improve privacy and security for users. The Whive protocol is a new way of storing data on the blockchain that is more efficient and secure than current methods. Taproot would make it possible for the Whive protocol to be used on the Bitcoin blockchain, providing a major boost to its security and privacy.
What Does Taproot Mean for the Whive Protocol?
With the help of Taproot, we will be able to provide users with even stronger protection against hackers, who are constantly looking for ways to infiltrate systems and gain access to sensitive information. Furthermore, our system will only grow in usability as we build support for other blockchains like Ethereum and Monero.
How do they tie together?
Taproot is a proposed upgrade to the Bitcoin protocol that would improve privacy and security for users. The Whive protocol is a decentralized application platform that enables developers to build and deploy apps on the blockchain. Taproot would provide a way for developers to create more private and secure apps on the Whive protocol. In short, Taproot would make it easier for developers to build privacy-centric applications on Whive while improving their security.
What does it mean for token holders/investors/advertisers/developers?
Taproot is a game-changing update to the Bitcoin protocol that promises to improve privacy, scalability, and security. For the Whive protocol, Taproot means increased privacy for users, improved scalability for businesses, and enhanced security for developers. Token holders can rest assured that their investment is safe and sound, while advertisers can tap into a new pool of potential customers. Developers will have access to new tools and capabilities that will help them build even more secure and efficient applications.

A sapphire crystal gives a watch the following properties: extremely high resistance to impact and superior screen and hand readability thanks to its transparency. Because it is the strongest material after diamonds, it is used in fine timepieces for its anti-scratch prowess. Sapphire crystals can take many forms and give the watch a variety of looks: flat, domed, concave or ground.
Ensuring visibility under all conditions is an important goal for Akheilos.This is why some timepieces feature a material we call SuperLuminova®. This material is placed on visible parts such as dials and hands, where it functions as a miniature accumulator of reflected light when the watch finds itself in the dark.
The mechanical movement contains an average of 100 finely manufactured parts. The balance wheel lies at the heart of the movement and ensures its accuracy. With its constant backwards and forwards movement, the balance and the balance spring divides the time into equal portions, thereby accurately regulating the movement of time.

|Yes, we know Trump doesn't actually drink. For which we are deeply grateful.|
The accounts may or may not be 100% accurate, but we don't care - other than having a constant undercurrent of mild terror. Because many of us who voted for Trump, however reluctantly, knew all of this about him going in. We weren't really happy about giving the country's reins to a man whose thought process can be likened to a pinball machine, but the only other choice was inconceivably worse.
Going back to our cartoon metaphor, our plane was already in serious trouble and going down fast. Hillary Clinton would put us into a nose dive at maximum throttle, then cackle hysterically (when not coughing) all the way down to our fiery doom.
Trump, on the other hand, might seem to have a screw loose - but he had a record of somehow getting things accomplished and seemed sincere in his desire to save the day. And unlike Hillary's kamikaze scenario, Trump wouldn't be alone in the cockpit - he'd actually have a trained co-pilot, flight engineer, navigator, and others to help compensate for his inexperience and eccentricities.
Which brings us to the present. Woodward and the New York Times are reporting that dedicated White House staffers are working constantly to defuse Trump's bad ideas and help enable his good ideas - which is why this amateur President keeps racking up success after success.
In other words, we're seeing a scary process that produces good results rather than what, under Hillary, would have been a nightmarishly efficient process producing devastating results.
That doesn't strike us as being an entirely bad thing. Especially if the in-flight turbulence doesn't get bad enough to keep the flight attendant from rolling that drink cart our way on a regular basis.

Ruth E. Walker
Why is February 6 an important date? For James II of England/James VII of Scotland, this is the day in 1685, he becomes king upon the death of his bother Charles II. In ancient Pompeii, AD 60 to be precise, a bit of wall graffiti shows February 6 as the earliest date the day of the week is known: Sunday apparently, though it would be Wednesday using our calendar. And for British women over the age of 30, this day in 1918 gave them the vote. At last, some women were considered to be adults…
From facts to inspiration
I’ve never paid attention to this particular date, February 6, and many other days that pass me by, year after year. But I got to thinking about how writers and other artists can find inspiration and ideas by checking out a day here or there.
Right now, I’m thinking that my friend and author of historical novels, Cryssa Bazos, would be able to tell me what inspired her to write about 17th century England. Perhaps she was just Googling dates when all the intrigue, civil war and passions of that time caught her attention.
And Pompeii? The place that captured the people and places of the ancient city, buried beneath a mountain of volcanic ash, is rich with high-tension moments. Unable to escape, families, friends and strangers succumbed to the poisonous gasses and then were covered with ash in their desperate last seconds, frozen with an arm extended in fear or draped around a loved one to protect one last time.
It was so sudden that tables were set with food, prepared for a meal never eaten.
Archeologists unearthed a time capsule, including that February 6 day-of-the-week discovery. And for writers, there’s been no end to the stories imagined by the vignettes revealed.
Thinking about British women’s right to vote February 6, 1918, I was reminded how hard won our right to vote is in Canada. Not so very long ago, it was meted out, inch by excruciating inch, province by province, until Canadian women finally got the right to vote federally on May 24 1918.
Of course, there were exceptions. And there were restrictions. You had to be 21 or older, and not a Status Indian or Inuit woman (or man, for that matter.) And restrictions applied to anyone disenfranchised provincially for reasons of race. Thus, Japanese, Chinese and South Asians in B.C. and Chinese in Saskatchewan were kept from voting.
As a writer, this rabbit hole of research got me thinking.
I’m driven by character, and I try to imagine what the power to vote might have meant to a woman who, on May 23, 1918, couldn’t vote.
I’ll call her Edith.
And what it meant to a woman who, on May 24, 1918, still couldn’t vote.
I’ll call her Miko.
Consider the opportunities for tension if I put these two women in the same house. A Japanese immigrant, Miko is a cook in a boarding house. She is 48 and widowed. Her only child, her son, died fighting in the Great War. Edith’s mother owns the boarding house, and 25-year-old Edith joined the women’s suffrage movement with exuberance. She doesn’t understand why Miko is so quiet on this day because it is a day to celebrate. Whatever is the matter with Miko?
From character to plot. And all because of a date.
So, what about you? Did any of this tickle your Muse? Have you ever checked out an innocuous date and discovered a treasure trove that inspired you to release your Muse and take you on a journey to people or places you’d never thought about before?

Pink House Socrates is 37km Southwest of Corfu Town in the beach of Gardeno Vitalades. The property is 2 minutes walk from the beach with nice sea view, the ideal spot to enjoy the beauty and serenity of the surrounding area, as well as a nice place for outdoor eating.
Having Corfu holidays is like spending breathtaking vacations in a paradise. Some parts of this beautiful island in Greece are said to be hidden treasures because they are truly well preserved. Aside from the island’s perfect scenery, another good thing that entices and attracts many tourists from different corners of the globe to visit Corfu is the fact that there are numerous outdoor activities that can be done here. Also, there are different places that you can visit upon having your ultimate getaway here.
Continue browsing and be amazed with what this island has to offer.
If you’re looking at holidays in Kavos, then you’re probably already in the know. Gardeno (Vitalades) , this little gem has remained undiscovered by most. Missed off most tourist itinerates and loved by the locals, Gardeno just about qualifies as a hamlet. This is the place you go if your honestly want to get away from it all. Two tavernas. One bar.
Take in the beautiful backdrop of green hills.
The gentle splash of canoe paddles, the unfurling of sails in the wind and playful squeals in the shallows are the only sounds you’ll hear. Gardeno is one of the lesser developed areas and natural beauty dominates over the hotels, apartments and private villas. The backdrop is a curtain of olive and cypress trees dropping down to green fields. As soon as you arrive in Gardeno beach and inhale the fresh sea air, a sense of seclusion and isolation will wash over you.
