Heritage Trip to Poland 2019/5779: Day 4
This morning we visited Auschwitz I, the most visited site in all of Poland. What was once the center of the massive three-camp Auschwitz complex was reclaimed by the Polish government and turned into a museum in 1947, just two years after Russian soldiers liberated the camp. We began by walking through the famous "Arbeit Macht Frei" entry gate, yet another example of the Nazis' use of deception to keep prisoners in line. The museum's strict rules dictated that, for the first time all week, Rabbi Lubner would not be our tour guide. Instead we were led through the camp by a non-Jewish, Polish guide, and it was fascinating to hear tales of the Holocaust from his perspective. He even talked about which exhibits were most memorable to him when he first visited Auschwitz on a school trip as a boy. This part of Auschwitz mainly housed non-Jewish Polish prisoners, but many of the museum's exhibits are dedicated to telling the story of the 1.1 million Jews murdered at Auschwitz. We were moved by displays of personal items confiscated from Jews upon arrival - thousands of eyeglasses, hairbrushes, and even prosthetic limbs. The most disturbing was a massive display case of 2 tons of human hair collected from approximately 40,000 of the hundreds of thousands of women who were shaved upon arrival.
The rest of the day was spent traveling back to New York. We are all glad to be back home and reunited with our families and our beds, but every one of us was moved and changed by the many things we have seen, learned, and experienced over the past few days.
Special thanks to Mrs. Winkler for coordinating, to Mr. Hofstetter and Ms. Dweck for chaperoning, and of course to Rabbi Lubner for everything he did to make this such an extraordinary and meaningful experience.
New Orleans Chesed Trip 2019/5779: Day 4
After Green Light, we went to the Giving Hope Food Pantry. People come once a month to fill their houses with food. We helped unload the truck and organize the produce. We then handed out food to all the people that needed. We were able to meet them and greet them with smiles, hopefully making their day a little better.
Afterwards, we went to Waffle on Maple and enjoyed a great final meal together. The New Orleans Chesed Trip was an amazing experience filled with Chesed and Fun!

Heritage Trip to Poland 2019/5779: Day 2
Our next stop was Majdanek where we spent the majority of our day. We walked the entire camp witnessing the living conditions, gas chambers, crematorium and more. We completed our experience with a memorial of those shot and killed in the back section of the camp. We recited a Perek of Tehilim and said kaddish as we concluded our day at Majdanek.
The second half of the day consisted of a 3 hour bus ride allowing us to regroup and rest. Our final stop of the night was a gravesite. This wasn't your ordinary cemetery. It was a memorial for both Polish citizens and Jews who were taken out of there towns nearby and shot in huge graves. We all took our time to reflect on ourselves as we read the letter our parents had composed for us. Silence filled the air and tears were streaming down everyone's faces. Our night ended with a beautiful dinner and a session where we had the opportunity to express our thoughts and feelings.

Sephardic Heritage Trip 2019/5779: Day 6: Cordoba
We continued on to the beautiful city of Cordoba . We had a quick lunch and enjoyed ice cream while sitting at a café. We then took a walking tour through the charming streets of the city. We learned about some of the famous Jews who lived in the city such as R. Yehuda Halevi and Rambam. We prayed a meaningful mincha in the only synagogue still standing of 17 the city once had.
Finally, one group of students went shopping while another hopped on Segways and e-bikes and explored different parts of the city like the Roman bridge and a gorgeous plaza.

New Orleans Chesed Trip 2019/5779: Day 2
We then traveled to southern Louisiana where we enjoyed a thrilling airboat tour. We saw alligators up close and even were able to hold some! The experience was exhilarating.
The next stop was a tour of the Lower Ninth Ward and Jewish cemetery. We saw the destruction of Hurricane Katrina - even fourteen years later. We saw the houses that were rebuilt as well as those that have yet to be restored. We stood next to the levees that played a huge role in the destruction. We then visited the Jewish cemetery where the community members buried Sifrei Kodesh and Sifrei Torah that were damaged during the hurricane. It was touching to see how the community cared for these holy works like fellow fallen community members, burying them next to their loved ones.
Sephardic Heritage Trip 2019/5779: Day 5: Seville
Today we explored the charming city of Seville which had the second largest community of Jews in Andalusia.
After another delicious and lavish breakfast, we went to the wondrous Al Khazar Palace in Seville, Spain. The amazingly crafted palace compound was built in the 1300s by Christians but was based on Moorish style and was adorned with magnificent art. We walked through the beautiful gardens and went through a maze in the garden. After a short cafe lunch, we ventured out on a fascinating guided walking tour of the Jewish quarter led by our tour guide Moses, who is actually a native Sevillian. There we learned about how the Jews lived as property of the crown in Seville until the pogroms in 1391 and the Inquisition which began in 1478. We also went to an underground parking lot where we saw the remnants of a Jewish cemetery.
After this, we ventured to the breathtakingly beautiful plaza d'espana which was the site of the world fair in the early 1900's. Here, we took a ride on a horse-led carriage and explored the beautiful architecture. Then we had free time for shopping (highlight was finding a Zara's outlet) followed by a hot meal from Seuda served in a local restaurant. Finally, we had a great time at the Casa De Guitare where we had a taste of authentic Andalusian culture and watched a fabulous traditional Flamenco show! Tomorrow Cordoba!

Culturally it is seen that the housework duties should fall upon the wife exclusively – and that helping the wife is seen as degrading, embarrassing, or too feminine. However, is this the case within Islam? What did the Prophet (sawa) say about the rewards of the man who helps his wife?
"O' father of Hasan! Listen to me. I will not tell you anything but what my Lord has ordered me to. Allah (swt) will establish the reward of as many years of fasting in the daytime and staying up at night to pray, as there are hairs on ones body for helping his wife with the housework. The reward will be similar to what He has granted to the patient ones, the Prophet David (as), Jacob (as) and Jesus (as)."
"O' Ali! Allah (swt) will record in the book of the martyrs the name of whoever serves his wife at home, and does not feel bad about it. Allah (swt) will establish the reward of one thousand martyrs for each day and night, and will grant him the reward of the pilgrimage to the Holy House of God for every step he takes in this regard. God will reward him with a city in Heaven that is as extensive as all the veins in his body are."
Source: Mustadrak al-Wasaa'il, Volume 13, Page 48 (See Image below)
The Prophet (sawa) goes on to say: "O Ali! Serving the wife is considered to be expiation for major sins. It will quench the Lord's wrath, and be considered as the nuptial gift for the 'Houris'. It will be a cause of raised ranks, and increased, recorded good-deeds."

BUS passengers can now receive the exact bus arrival times for any bus stop in the West Midlands via text message onto their mobile phones.
Transport authority Centro has just launched a promotion on its "TextTime" service which makes use of satellite navigation systems on board buses to track down their exact location and arrival time. Up until the end of October passengers can try out the service at no charge other than their phone provider's normal text rate.
Each one of the 12,200 bus stops in the West Midlands has been given a unique eight-digit code printed on the timetable poster which people can text to 84268. They should then receive a message with arrival times for the next buses at their stop.
Anyone with a mobile phone or handheld computer with internet access can also use a specially designed website to obtain the same information. At http://www.netwm.mobi passengers can type in their stop code or name, street name or location to get the information - useful before heading to a bus stop.
Some bus stops already make use of electronic displays which use the same Real Time Information as "TextTime" and "MobiTime". If the information is not available, scheduled arrival times are sent.

Keys to prototype development: Researching and networking
Oct 10 2014
The Journalists for America team is creating a potential program to help journalism school graduates report in small communities for one to two years. The goals of the program include enhancing community journalism and providing journalism school graduates with experience.
The two main lessons we continue to learn this week are the importance of learning models that are similar to what we are pitching and the importance of networking with experts who can provide essential feedback.
Research similar models
One of the most important parts of developing prototypes is to do research and learn about ideas that are similar to what we are creating. As we learn about previous models, we can strategize about what needs to be improved.
My team originally began researching community journalism programs in colleges such as the University of Alabama.
We also contacted Teach for America and Venture for America to have a better understanding of their models. Last week, we discussed a different approach with a professor here at the University of North Carolina. Each model we researched until now is very different, and each model has been helpful for our idea. We are trying to figure out how to improve our idea based on this research.
Network for a prototype and a viability model
Along with learning about similar models, networking is essential for prototype development. We are currently preparing for a call with Bill Densmore who has performed extensive research on a similar project.
After talking to Josh Stearns, director of journalism and sustainability at the Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation, last week and reading research for his program Report for America, we have realized that funding was one of the major setbacks to the Report for America plan. We are brainstorming ideas for the viability model this week, and by networking with Report for America contacts, we can have stronger ideas for our viability model.
By having access to additional contacts who have experience with a similar model and by contacting Bill Densmore, who has been the director/editor of the Media Giraffe Project at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst, we are learning more about how important it is to network for prototype development. While it is important to hear about end users' feedback, it is also important to learn from experts who tried similar models. We can also have additional input for a viability model, which is one of the biggest areas we need to focus on now.

How Long can Corn Demand for Ethanol Hold Up?
Corn is mainly demanded for the production of ethanol. It is very cheap input for ethanol manufacturing and it is the reason that ethanol can stand strong in the fuel and energy market in comparison of unleaded gasoline and crude oil. Actually, just because of favorable demand of DDGs and ethanol low input cost the ethanol manufacturing units are achieving significant margin on their cost. But as the price of gasoline is getting down consistently it is the question of the time that is ethanol capable enough to stand in the price competition and how long the corn demand for ethanol hold up?
Image: flickr.com/photos/16502322@N03
For the last three years, the production of corn in increasing in a very consisting way and there are enough stocks in reserve. And because of it, the ethanol producers are enjoying fair profit margin. And while the demand of ethanol is going upwards so it can be predicted that for next 3 to 4 years there will be no treating competition to the ethanol manufacturing units. On the other hand, the price reduction of crude oil is also helpful to ethanol profitability as the cost of energy input is decreasing because to it. But then it also results in the availability of low cost gasoline.
While we study the recent scenario, it is clear that the high profit margin of ethanol production is because of the purchase of corn at remarkable low prices. If in near future, due to the unfavorable production of corn, the input cost increases, it can raise a big challenge in front of the entire ethanol industry. The corn price hike will suffer the profitability and also the product demand of ethanol production units.
The experts of the industry are also pressurizing on search of alternative input products to cut the dependence on the production and supply of corn. Soybean also can be a good option as it also costs very low and is being produced at a very large scale. Soybean can also successfully replace the corn in the manufacturing of DDGs. It is loaded with the surplus of nutritional values and is very popular. It can be a mean to cut the costs and increasing the profit margins. As the modern technical advancements, some efforts are being taken in preparing the blend of ethanol and gasoline, so that the competition may be turned into the collaboration.
At the end of the study, it is sure that the profitability of the ethanol industry is strongly based on the lower cost and uninterrupted supply of corn. And when good production is predicted for upcoming months plus stockists have adequate reserve for near future demand, the industry can simply enjoy its margins. But it is highly recommended to search for and apply new option as input and also the new blend should be developed to reduce the dependence on corn.

The other day Deb brought in an online advertisement from Christian Book Distributors offering ESV Bibles in Hardcover, and Imitation Leather for 52% off the listed price because they were "Slightly Imperfect." She was quick to see the irony in this, and I was quick to dibs the advertisement so that I could use it in this essay. There are so many good speakers and writers here (her husband for instance) that one has to snatch a great idea as soon as one sees it.
Just what does "slightly imperfect" mean anyway. Were a few pages missing from the end of Revelation? Perhaps a typesetting error turned every John to Joan. Maybe the word "not" was left out of the Ten Commandments (it has happened before), and so the LORD commands, "Thou shalt bear false witness."
Upon reading the fine print one finds that "slightly imperfect" means these Bibles may include: "wrinkled pages, stray marks, missing dust jackets, dented corners or spines, dusty page edges, or cracks in CD cases." So Deb ordered one of these slightly imperfect Bibles, and apart from the green sticker which reads "DA" (I assume that means "damaged"), this particular ESV is perfect, so far as I can tell.
Almost from the beginning scholars, translators, and evangelists have sought to tinker with the text. Papias, Marcion, the Muratorian Canon, and Martin Luther sought to exclude some texts, and sometimes embellish others. Thomas Jefferson famously took a blade and cut up two New Testaments, keeping only the parts he considered authentic and excising everything miraculous. The Jehovah's Witnesses, in their New World Translation try to rewrite every passage that refers to Jesus as divine. Today, evangelical missionaries to Muslim countries want to take out any reference to Jesus as the "Son of God" to prevent their listeners from being offended at the notion God and a human woman shared in the parentage of an offspring. Every one of these tinkerers sees the Bible as "slightly imperfect."
In a more subtle (and thus more subversive) way, those "experts" who tell us that only this or that translation really should be accepted see the Bible as imperfect. So also those who tell us that we are lost without their expertise to really understand the text. Each of these "experts" see the Bible as missing something – their intellect, their insight – without which the Bible is powerless to communicate to the unschooled masses.
I want to state unequivocally that I reject all tinkerers. The Bible is perfect, and is God's tool to make us so (II Timothy 3:16-17). It survives any honest attempt at translation to communicate truth because it is not inanimate, but alive with the breath of God (see above), an active participant with us in changing our lives (Hebrews 4.12). Anyone who holds a Bible holds a living thing. Besides, the Bible is itself, largely a work of translation – Jesus didn't have private conversations, or preach publically in Greek, but in Aramaic. Yet if one picks up the most ancient texts of the Gospels, there He is, preaching and teaching in Greek. The Gospels are themselves translations.
When one opens a Bible one engages a perfect communication from God. All of us are reading texts or translations that have been prepared by men and women like us who might have chosen a better adjective here or there in their native language – but the Bible survives all this to speak the word of God plainly. Whether one is holding an ESV, a KJV, an NRSV, an NIV, an NASB, or any of the new translations that come on the market every year – and whether or not it has wrinkled pages, stray marks, a missing dust jacket, a dented corner or spine – one is holding something perfect, something that makes us perfect.

AUGUSTA, Ga. – Augusta State notched 10 hits for 12 runs Tuesday afternoon at Jaguar Field, to take a single non-conference game over the Paine College Lions 12-6.
Jags junior Nate Crown went 2-for-4 with five RBIs and two scored runs while freshman Justin Mee was 4-for-5 with two runs. ASU freshman right-hander Trey McAvoy went 5.2 innings in the start, giving up six hits for six runs (three earned) and striking out three before he was relieved by senior slinger Tyler Ross (1-0). Ross came in at a six-all tie to get out of the inning and go on to earn the win, before sophomore righty Jaime Suggs closed it out in the eighth and ninth.
With the wind creating problems all day for outfielders, Paine's William VanWinkle gave the Lions a 3-0 lead with a homerun to centerfield off of McAvoy in the first inning. Crown tied the game for ASU in the bottom of the first with a three-run homer of his own to center that scored junior JD Sabo and freshman Lance Mangrum - who reached on a walk and hit by pitch.
ASU poured three more on for a 6-3 a lead in the third with some help from the Lions' infield. Two errors on Paine's third baseman put runners on first and second and a passed ball scored the first of the inning. Junior Kevin Dodson doubled to right-center field to plate junior Jeff Rice for an unearned run and freshman Logan South singled through the left side for his lone RBI of the day.
With two outs, Paine added two singles in the sixth and an error on ASU's infield and passed ball at home plate scored evened the game. Tied six-all, ASU added four in their half of the sixth and notched one in the seventh and eighth for a final 12-6 win.
Paine junior Chris Johnson went 3-for-5 with a run and RBI and VanWinkle was 1-for-4 with three RBIs and a run.
The Jags head to downtown Augusta, Ga., tomorrow, Wednesday Mar. 6 for a single game against the Lions at Paine College for a 2:00 p.m. first pitch.

I don't have a lot of things to say about this movie. There are lots of different critiques being deployed in the film–capitalism, certainly, as well as the eating of meat, community, and geopolitics.
But what I want to talk about is affect. More specifically, the soundtrack is doing some beautiful stuff. It drives the viewer along–there are long swaths of the film where there is no dialogue, or little discernible dialogue, that are guided by sound alone. A driving, multiplying spectrum of sound comes along to interrupt, to push the viewer into the diegetic world of the film.
The soundtrack brings us closer to plague. It brings us closer to the horror of it, and more than that, it makes it more palatable. The music of Contagion is driving and makes us understand the order of things–the deaths, the cycles of cure, the riots, it's all a part of this driving forward, mimicked by both the virus itself and the industries that can profit from its death.
And so there's a moment of affect transmission there. It pulls us in, and when a character dies, knows she is dying, we can feel that. We're swept up in the same process that she is–a quick and slow boom boom boom that pulls and pushes us along.
The soundtrack to Contagion helps us imagine our finitude through music, and it's terrifying.

Almost all men experience hair loss at some point in their lives. Typically, the first place this is noticed is in the front and temple area. Understanding what causes receding hairline is the first key to stopping it and/or reversing it.
The number one reason the hair starts to recede is a genetic condition known as male pattern baldness or androgenic alopecia. As a man ages, his body begins to produce a hormone called dihydrotestosterone (DHT). This hormone binds itself to the hair follicles and causes them to shrink. As the follicles get thinner, they lose the ability to produce new hair. Eventually, they become so small that the existing hair falls out.
Another common cause for the hair to recede is stress. When a man is under a great deal of stress, his body produces a variety of hormones and enzymes that affect his entire body, including the hair follicles. The good news is that this type of hair loss is normally temporary. Once the stress is removed, the follicles return to normal and produce hair as normal.
A few medications seem to have a connection with loss of hair in front. Antidepressants, an excess of vitamin A, and medications prescribed as treatments for gout have been linked to hair loss. One of the most common examples of medication causing the hair to fall out is chemotherapy used to treat cancer.
Some illnesses and/or infections can cause the hairline to recede. A certain fungal infection of the scalp is a common direct cause of hair loss. Diseases that weaken the immune system can also have this effect. Two common examples are diabetes and lupus.
Variations in hormone levels are another common cause. Men often do not produce as much testosterone in later years. This drop in levels can be linked to loss of hair, especially when coupled with the formation of DHT.
Understanding what causes receding hairline is the first step to knowing what must be done to reverse it. Some causes are temporary, meaning that no direct action will need to be taken. Others are genetic, meaning that one will have to take steps to slow or reverse the process.
Fortunately, there are solutions to the problem of hair loss. Medications such as minoxidil and finasteride have been proven to be effective at stopping or reversing hair loss. In addition to these, hair transplant procedures that make use of the person's own hair follicles are normally quite effective.
One of the reasons why you are losing your hair is because the blood supply that nourishes the roots has been cut-off. This means the hair has no way of developing and is literally dried out.
Reestablishing the source of nourishment will promote hair growth. The methods in "Hair Again!" do not only deal with the symptoms but treat the root causes as well! By solving that you can expect your lost hair to come back within 2-5 weeks. You will actually need to spend up to 5 minutes daily doing the treatment. It's that SIMPLE! Without chemicals, pills, supplements or hair transplants. Download The Methods Here!

Packer & Mover Ranchi
Before the name of Ranchi District was Lohardaga. The old district had come into existence after the creation of the non-regulation South - West frontier as a result of the coal rising in 1831-32. The epithet of the district was converted in 1899 from Lohardaga to Ranchi after the figure of a small village now comprised within the HQ station. Ranchi, Capital of Jharkhand is also called as the city of Lakes and Waterfalls. Dassam falls is 34 kms from Ranchi near a village called Taimara. The Kachni River, a tributary of the Subarnarekha River falls from an altitude of 144 feet. It is as well known as Dassam Gagh. Similarly, Hundru fall is approximately 45 kilometers from Ranchi in Ranchi-Purulia Road. The Subarnarekha River falls from a height of 320 feet. "Jonha Falls" also known as Gautamdhara is 40 kms from Ranchi. It is reachable by both Road and train. There is a tourist guest house which contains Lord Buddha temples. The river Kanchi flows nearby Ranchi Hill and Pahari Mandir are one of the landmarks of Ranchi Town. The Shiva temple is located on the peak of the hill as well known as Pahari Mandir. On the underneath of the hill is Ranchi Lake. The Sun Temple is situated at a distance of 40 kms on the Ranchi Tata Road. It is built with the configuration of a Chariot with 18 wheels drawn by 7 white horses. It is enclosed by a pond which is used by devotees during Chhath Puja for worshipping of the Sun. Jagannathpur Temple is 10 km apart from the Ranchi town Jagannathpur temple built in 1691 having a resemblance to the architectural style of Puri temple, Thakur Ani Nath Shahdeo built the temple.

JEM found this recipe and it's definitely become a weekly staple in our house. It goes fantastic with tacos, burritos, quesadillas, etc. It is also great by itself. J has made it thinking it would last a few days only to discover I brought it to work for lunch with pita chips. Quick, easy, inexpensive, very filling, and oh so good.
- 1 can of black beans
- 1 can of no-salt sweet corn
- chopped fresh cilantro to taste
- 1/2 med. red onion (or to taste)
- fresh lime juice (~1/2 of a squeezed lime)
- salt
- 1/2 chopped de-seeded jalapeno or serrano (optional)
- 1 tbs cumin
- Drain the beans and corn
- Rinse both the beans and corn in a colander. Leave them to dry a bit.
- Rough chop the red onion (we cut it up fairly small.)
- Rinse the cilantro. Make sure to wash the cilantro very well. Unlike other herbs you may pick up from the store, this one often comes very sandy. So unless you like grit, clean it will!!
- Rough chop the cilantro.
- Rinse the hot pepper.
- Cut the hot pepper in half, de-seed, rough chop (again we do it pretty small or you're like to get a VERY spicy bite.)
- Mix the beans, corn, cilantro, and hot pepper together. If then beans and corn are still pretty wet at this point then cumin will clump and be funky.
- Salt to taste.
- Squeeze lime juice over the mixture.
- Mix
- Enjoy!!!

Manchester United are preparing a £27million bid for Southampton defender Luke Shaw, according to sources at Sky Sports.
Shaw has been heavily linked with United for months, as well as the likes of Chelsea and Manchester City.
United are reportedly keen to get their business done ahead of the World Cup, despite not having a permanent manager in place.
The Red devils ended their season under interim boss Ryan Giggs with a 1-1 draw on against Shaw's Southampton at St Mary's, although it is not clear whether talks followed the game.
Shaw has established himself as one of the best young players in the country since making his debut for the Saints in November 2012.
The youngster is nervously waiting to discover if he will be a part of Roy Hodgson's World Cup squad, which is set to be announced on Monday.
United have made the signing of a new left back a priority, with veteran Patrice Evra set to leave the club now his contract has expired.
The club could also confirm the appointment of their new permanent manager within the next week, with Netherlands coach Louis Van Gaal the favourite to take over from David Moyes.

This was actually my virgin attempt at a scrapbook page, but I just couldn't quite do it. Mom printed off the image for me of Ciera and Snowflake ... I really had to leave journaling room, because looking at those two little women makes my heart melt and I want to write about it. I really like the blue lacy image on the right and bottom of the picture (rubber stamp painted with acrylic), and the stamped whirlygigs. (I think the official word is fluorish, but whirlygigs is more fun to say!)

Country Bistro : I Want My Rice! =9Posted by Kat at 9:07 PM
I have been going to Country Bistro in Rowland Heights forever. It's the usual lunch place that my family and I frequent. They have a pretty good lunch selection and at a good price... BUT... recently I have been greatly upset by them! They are so stingy! I can overlook the typical rude and bad Asian service but how dare they deprive me of white rice!!! That's unholy for any Asian! lol =9 I ate there and picked up my usual extra lunch to go for the next day. They actually had the audacity to tell us that if you want rice, you'll have to pay extra!!! When you dine-in they give you rice with the lunch specials, which is normal! I guess they are getting more and more stingy these days by skimping on the rice for takeout! WTH! It says on the menu that it comes with it. I can understand that soup or what not are not included for take out, but rice!?!?! Bah-humbug! lol
So the specialty of this restaurant is that they offer nutritious soups for $1 extra with each lunch. My Mom LOVES the soups because it is suppose to be extremely nutritious for the body. Her favorite ones are the ones shown. Sometimes she orders a third one with Bittermelon inside. I don't know how non-Chinese people can order these soups since they are written in Chinese! >=P She usually gets the Spare Rib soup or the Stomach soup as shown. *hard to translate directly*
My favorite dish here is the Intestines with Basil. As many of you have noticed, I love pig intestines! O=9 They usually do a wonderful job in flavoring the dish and the portions are usually not bad. I love the fragrant flavor of the basil leaves mixed in with everything and I could do without the Red Bell Peppers lol. The intestines are usually soft but still retain their chewy texture. It's a great balance of sweet and salty. This dish goes great with rice. Word to the wise, if you love this dish like me do not order them together because the portions get smaller. =*( It's harder to season a huge wok evenly too.
On that particular trip, I decided to try the Fish Fillet with Black Bean Sauce. The black bean flavor was strong and the flavor was not bad. I still prefer the intestines by far. This dish was more salty but can be mellowed out with the white rice. All these dishes are meant to be paired with white rice to accentuate and exemplify the flavor of the dish.
All in all the food here is pretty good and at a good price at lunch but I am still furious about them depriving me of my white rice for take out!!! That is just jacked up!!! lol No worries, I just went home and cooked my own rice that is better... but it is just the principles of the matter! Since then, I am more opposed to eating there for lunch. Hey, I am in RH... I can EASILY find great food at a great price there! =P Although, I do like the intestines here. Darn them! *shakes fist wildly into the air*

It's disappointing that they did not include rice! I would be curious to try pig intestines.

I'm not a fan of this place. I thought the service sucked, the price wasn't that cheap (for Chinese food anyways), the soups I thought were just OK. I don't think I'll ever eat here again...

Hey, this is Audrey from Motherhood and Toddlerhood... were you the one who left the comment on my blog post about Gianotti-Crosti Syndrom? It wouldn't let me comment you or go to your blogger profile, so I did a google search. :) Please come back and leave an email address, or a link to your blog, or something so I can contact you! I would love to answer your questions!

I agree 5 Star Foodie!! lol I should have argued with them that it says the rice is included! lol Oooh you should try pig intestines! Make sure it is a good place first because I wouldn't want you to have a bad first experience and not like it in the future. ^_^
KFP : I don't drink the soups haha.. you know me and the word "healthy" don't go together. My Mom loves the soups and lunch specials here so she keeps going! I haven't gone back since but she has. The service there sucks! Typical Asian bad service, but I do love those intestines! DARN THEM! lol I have yet to find a place that makes Intestines with Basil as flavorful. Of course if you know of any places ^_- be sure to share!
I don't think I have been on your site before. The person you are probably looking for isn't me, sorry. Thanks for coming though. I hope you can find the person to comment back to. Have a wonderful week.

Forge Dynamic can help you design a new IT infrastructure, update an existing infrastructure and help you scale up or scale down an infrastructure that no longer suits your business requirements. The ever evolving world of IT can be a difficult one to keep up with, particularly for small businesses that may not have in-house expertise, or dedicated IT staff. It is also true that some businesses that have outsourced their IT support often suffer from being looked after by a less than forward thinking companies. This can be a costly mistake. Changes in technologies are generally helping to lower costs, either by simplifying tasks or by making them automated. Any business, particularly small-to-medium sized, needs to keep up to date with technology and what is available, in order to make informed decisions on how to improve the company infrastructure and general performance. In some cases it would not be economical to change existing working practices, however, sticking with an existing solution due to lack of knowledge can be equally as costly.
Forge Dynamic can help implement any part of either an infrastructure or software solution. We can either fit in to an existing implementation project to help you achieve specific goals, or help you plan the entire implementation itself, to ensure the whole project runs as smoothly as possible.

An emperor should never admit when he's wrong. But it seems that my knowledge of the Roman frontier (or "limes") along the middle Danube was deficient.In an earlier post, I suggested that the only Roman military remains in Croatia were the pre-Flavian legionary fortresses at Burnum (near Kistanje) and Tilurium (Gardun). Located in the Adriatic province of Dalmatia, in the far west of Croatia, they are almost 200 miles from the imperial frontier.
In my own defence, I can only point out that, besides a one-year governorship of Asia in AD 135, I have never set foot out of Italy, and have no military experience whatsoever! Nor is geography my strongest subject. So it is perhaps understandable, if not entirely forgivable, that I was unaware of one important fact: namely, that 188 km of the Croatian border in the east is marked by the river Danube (as an anonymous correspondent kindly informed me).
For much of its course, the Danube marks the northern limit of the Roman empire, flowing east through Austria and Hungary to the great bend above Budapest, whereupon it turns south, eventually entering Croatian territory between the rivers Drava and Sava, before turning east again at Belgrade and (having traversed a series of spectacular gorges) wending its way through Serbia, Romania, and Bulgaria to the Black Sea coast.
This sector of Roman frontier is apparently awaiting recognition as a World Heritage Site. Forts are known at Batina Skrela (Roman Ad militares), Osijek (Mursa), Dalj (Teutoburgium), Sotin (Cornacum), and Ilok (Cuccium), but the remains have yet to be developed for public viewing. Let us hope that World Heritage Status will provide the impetus.

Is eating one whole olive considered as a kezayit (for the purposes of a bracha acharona)? Or is the pit, which most people do not eat, not considered - making only the remainder of the olive (which of course is less than a kezayit) count towards the shiur?
2I assume you aren't looking for answers that say modern olives are not the same size as olives were a few thousand years ago – Double AA♦ Mar 11 '18 at 13:08
1...who eats the pit? – bondonk Mar 11 '18 at 13:40
1Note that this might present other issues of eating an entire 'beriya', a complete object, which even if less than a kezayis, is discussed in the poskim as possibly needing a Bracha Achrona. – Salmononius2 Mar 11 '18 at 18:55
1@Salmononius2 The Rema rules that without the pit it would not be considered a beriya. – Alex Mar 11 '18 at 20:33
The Talmud explicitly addresses this.
אמר ליה רבי ירמיה לרבי זירא רבי יוחנן היכי מברך על זית מליח כיון דשקילא לגרעיניה בצר בצר ליה שיעורא אמר ליה מי סברת כזית גדול בעינן כזית בינוני בעינן (והא איכא) וההוא דאייתו לקמיה דרבי יוחנן זית גדול הוה דאע"ג דשקלוה לגרעינותיה פש ליה שיעורא דתנן זית שאמרו לא קטן ולא גדול אלא בינוני וזהו אגורי ואמר רבי אבהו לא אגורי שמו אלא אברוטי שמו ואמרי לה סמרוסי שמו ולמה נקרא שמו אגורי ששמנו אגור בתוכו
R. Jeremiah asked R. Zera: How could R. Johanan make a blessing over a salted olive? Since the stone had been removed, it was less than the minimum size! — He replied: Do you think the size we require is that of a large olive? We require only that of a medium sized olive, and that was there, for the one they set before R. Johanan was a large one, so that even when its stone had been removed it was still of the requisite size. For so we have learnt: The 'olive' spoken of means neither a small nor a large one, but a medium one. This is the kind which is called aguri. R. Abbahu, however, said: Its name is not aguri but abruti, or, according to others, samrusi. And why is it called aguri? Because its oil is collected [agur] within it. (Soncino translation)
In other words the size of a kezayis is the size of a medium olive including the pit. Therefore, eating a medium olive without the pit would not be considered eating a kezayis, but eating a large olive without the pit would be considered eating a kezayis.
If we understand a kezayit to be the volume of an olive (rather than a complex measure per R' Chaim Naeh et al.), then a single olive is not a kezayit, as the pit is considered within this volume.
In this case, a kezayit would be about one and one half olives, excluding their pits.
As always, CYLOR

Yesterday, things seemed relatively simple when it came to the passage of the EU's telecom reforms, a set of laws that would go a long way towards creating a unified Internet and cellular market within the member states. As we reported, the main stumbling block appeared to be a matter of emphasis. The European Parliament and European Council both agreed to include some language supportive of a three-strikes policy for disconnecting copyright infringers, but were haggling over where to place the language. That near agreement was apparently short-lived, as a committee within the Parliament thumbed its collective nose at the EU Council and significantly changed the language of the rule.
The situation is made even more absurd by the fact that the whole issue of three-strikes rules is quite peripheral to the telecoms package as a whole, the majority of which is focused on unifying telecommunications services within the common market. There are a variety of measures that ensure network interoperability across national boundaries and provide for the allocation of unlicensed wireless spectrum blocks within the EU. Earlier in the day, the Parliament approved a series of measures that would significantly drop the cost of roaming within the EU, covering text message, calling, and wireless plans.
Nevertheless, some of the member states, most notably France, are very interested in adopting some sort of three strikes regulation, in which ISPs would be compelled to cut off a user's Internet access if they repeatedly engage in piracy of copyrighted material. As such, a peripheral issue has moved front-and-center, as the governments of these states, represented through the European Council, are trying to ensure that the package passed by the Parliament will let them do so.
As of Tuesday's report, the two parties had apparently agreed on language, where the Internet cutoff would require a decision by "a competent legal authority." The question was whether to put that language within the legislation proper, or include it as part of the bill's recital, which explains the context of the legislation (either location would, apparently, make the language legally binding). According to IDG News Service, a Parliamentary committee has reset the entire process by reverting to earlier language in which the decision to apply three strikes would require judicial review, rather than approval by any legal authority.
Thanks to this change, it doesn't matter where the language appears, as member states had worked hard to eliminate this higher standard of review, and are unlikely to accept the package with the current language intact. There's still time for negotiations, but not a lot, as things like the changes to roaming charges are scheduled to kick in this summer. That's left some people considering whether the entire package will wind up getting shelved until the next round of Parliamentary elections changes the composition of the legislature. Others are, more sensibly, arguing that the three-strikes language should simply be pulled from the rest of the telecom reforms, to which it is only tenuously related.
Of course, given how significantly things changed overnight (from the US perspective), there's a chance that something that's not as drastic as these possibilities will emerge from the Parliament in the near future. We'll continue to track these developments.

Latest news
Write your will month this September
Following on from the success of last year's Write Your Will Month, which raised money for various ward and department charity projects, throughout September 2016 we will be encouraging supporters to have their wills professionally written or updated in exchange for a small donation to the charity.
"It takes a huge weight off your mind. It's like having one room in the house all beautiful and tidy in case you ever need it. The peace of mind that you have prepared it and shut the door and it's ready for anyone who needs it. You don't have to worry then." Sue Jameson, New Tricks actress and charity legacy ambassador reflecting on writing her will.
Instead of paying a solicitors fee, you will be invited to make a donation to help raise money for Southampton Hospital Charity, or you can direct your donation to whichever area of the hospital is closest to your heart.
After providing for your loved ones, we hope that you will include a gift to Southampton Hospital Charity in your will. Donating just 1% of the residue of your estate or as much as you can spare will make a huge difference.

This is a fantastic opportunity for our supporters to help themselves while also helping a good cause. Having a will written by a professional offers great peace of mind and by doing it through 'Write Your Will Month', our supporters will be helping to pump vital funds back into their local hospital.
Suggested donations are £45 for a codicil, £95 for a basic single will or £145 for a pair of basic mirror wills. Please note that more detailed wills may incur an additional charge and should be discussed with your solicitor before your will is completed.
Previous projects
In 2014, our chosen project was our elderly care wards - you helped us raise £5,000 soley for these wards, so thank you! This has enabled us to put TVs and entertainment systems into the wards to make it more of a home-from-home experience for our elderly patients, who often spend long amounts of time in hospital.
In 2015, we asked for support for our PLANETS (pancreatic, liver and neuroendocrine tumours) fund to put towards research and vital bits of equipment for use with our patients. We are currently still waiting for all the money to come in, and to be count.
Your gift will be a lasting legacy: your footprint in the future

You wouldn't think that a feature whose main characters were drawn with a compass would make a big impression on readers, but Gelett Burgess' Goops enjoyed a surprising run of popularity in the early part of the previous century.
Gelett Burgess was primarily a writer and poet. His best known work is the poem The Purple Cow:
I never hope to see one;
But I can tell you, anyhow,
I'd rather see than be one!
In 1900 he published the book Goops and How to Be Them, in which he described the behavior of naughty children and accompanied each little poem with a cartoon of a globe-headed kid in the act of displaying their signature behavior problem. The concept caught on and the books became popular gifts from parents to their little monsters, er, children. Whether Burgess' Goop poems ever inspired these rugrats to straighten up and fly right seems doubtful, but the books themselves would at least serve as good paddling instruments if all else failed.
At least four follow-up volumes were published between 1903 and 1916, and in that period Burgess branched out to produce a daily newspaper panel featuring his creations. The first Goops series was distributed by Associated Newspapers and the best documented dates I can offer are March 3 1913 through September 14 1915.
After a long fallow period, Burgess resurrected his orb-faced brats in a second series that was distributed by the Chicago Tribune. This series ran from September 3 1923 to April 24 1926 as a daily panel, and as a Sunday comic strip from February 17 to May 18 1924.
I hasten to add that all the information about newspaper appearances of the Goops that appears above is likely incomplete. I have found examples of Goops panels showing up in some of the darnedest places, often just running once or twice in newspapers as early as the oughts and as late as the 1940s. My tendency with most of these stray appearances is to chalk them up as reprints, old stock, specials distributed by a publisher on the occasion of a new book, and so on. But something gnaws at me that I'm still not getting the full picture of the Goop newspaper history. Perhaps there is some dedicated Goop-ologist out there who can fill me in.
PS — I am not the type of Goop-headed individual who goes around Googling my own name. I am, however, gripped by an intense fascination with the links you folks use to get here to the Stripper's Guide blog, and check my 'referrals' list on a regular basis. I see this not as ego massage but as market research, er, yeah, market research, that's it. To my constant dismay, a truly amazing number of my visitors arrive here hoping to find a very different kind of stripper … but I digress. One of the referrals I just saw was from Wikipedia. Many kind (and discerning) folks have linked to this blog from various subjects there, so that was nothing out of the ordinary. What was unusual was the Wiki page from which this particular questing soul had arrived. It turns out, believe it or not, that there is a Wikipedia biography of li'l ole me! Really, I'm not kidding, you can go and look. And I swear on a stack of New York Evening Graphics that I didn't write it. So I'm walking around a little puffed up at the moment, realizing that I now stack up with such luminaries like Alexander the Great, George Washington, the guy who talked fast on toy commercials and the key grip on She Gods of Shark Reef.
In observance of this great honor, I hereby promise to henceforth wear a tie whenever I write a blog post. If I ever make the Encyclopedia Brittanica I'll consider wearing pants, too.

There are many Websites for tracing and searching your Cherokee roots. Here are a few of the most used sites.
The following records produced by the Cherokee Nation and the United States government are important sources for research into Cherokee genealogy, but are not considered to be complete.
1. Eastern Cherokee Applications. These records were produced by the Guion Miller Commission of the Court of Claims from 1906 through 1909. The main body of information is formed from 45,000 applications received from living persons who were trying to prove their eligibility to share in the per capita payment made, which amounted to $133.19 per person. In order to be eligible a person had to show that they were descended from a person who was an eastern Cherokee in 1835 usually by proving descent from a person named on the Drennen roll of 1851 (eastern Cherokees living in Oklahoma) or the Chapman roll of 1851 (eastern Cherokees who remained in the east). In addition, those persons eligible would have to prove that they were not "Old Settlers" and that they had not become associated with any other tribe. The applications ask for a tremendous amount of genealogical information. This includes name, date and place of birth, name and age of spouse, names, birthplace and dates of death for parents, names and date for brothers and sisters, names of grandparents, and names of aunts and uncles. In addition, because many persons felt the payment was to be made per stirpes to heirs of Eastern Cherokee, claims for cousins and other more distant relatives are mentioned.
2. Records of the Dawes Commission. For the Cherokee, these records were produced between 1900 and 1906 and were used to determine citizenship and allotment of land. The rolls were originally closed on 1 September 1902 and were reopened to include minors born until 4 March 1906. There are two main classes of records produced: (1) transcripts of testimony of persons applying and (2) census cards which generally include the same information as is in the transcript, but may have additional information added later.
3. The Drennen, Old Settler and Chapman Rolls of 1851. These rolls were produced as a result of the Treaty of 1846 mentioned above. While the Drennen and Old Settler Rolls do not give any identifying information other than name, they are grouped in family units with the head (usually father or husband) listed first and the wife second and the children following. The Chapman Roll and its accompanying Siler Payroll do give ages and other information. Later payments made to the Old Settlers in 1896 and to the Eastern Cherokees in 1909 are referenced to individuals on the 1851 rolls. These rolls have been produced on microfilm and printed in book form.
4. The Old Settler payroll of 1896. This Payroll was made as a result of a final settlement of Old Settler claims. The payment was made "per stirpes" meaning that each person on the 1851 roll was allowed the same amount of money ($159.10). If the original Old Settler was deceased, his heirs split that amount among themselves. All records, other than the payroll, produced by the Old Settler Commission were destroyed in a fire, so it is possible that there may have been applications similar to those of the Eastern Cherokee in 1906. This roll has been produced on microfilm and printed in book form.
5. The 1880 Cherokee census. This was the first thorough census of all residents of the Cherokee Nation and includes six schedules of enumerated persons, depending on citizenship or non-citizenship status. There are three copies of this census available: (1) the original enumeration, which are housed in the Western History Collection at the University of Oklahoma, Norman (these are now available on microfilm; one district and part of another are missing); (2) a hand-written schedule alphabetized by first letter of surname with a number assigned to each person; this schedule was used by the Dawes commission and those enrollees living in 1880 are referenced to the number on the schedule. In addition the schedule has a notation of what census card each person on the 1880 census is found on, or a notation that the person is dead. This hand-written schedule has been printed in book form recently. (3) A printed schedule based on the hand written schedule, but the numbers assigned each person are not the same.
6. The 1896 Cherokee census. This census was made of all citizens of the Cherokee Nation preparatory to allotment. The Dawes Commission referenced each person enrolled for allotment to this census. This census lists degree of blood and birthplace. This census is reproduced on microfilm.
7. The other various Cherokee censuses: 1883, 1886, 1890, 1893, 1894. Some of these census might more accurately be termed "payrolls." The 1890 gives much the same information as the 1880. The others include only citizens of the Cherokee Nation.
8. The Cherokee census of 1835. Produced preparatory to final removal. It has been microfilmed and printed in book form.
9. The Cherokee census of 1867. The only apparent surviving copy of this census is not the original and is marred by copying errors in nearly every district. It has been reproduced on microfilm.
10. Cherokee Nation official documents. Many of the official documents of the Cherokee Nation such as marriage licenses and wills are currently housed in the Oklahoma Historical Society's Indian Archives. These have been reproduced on microfilm, but are not indexed and are sometimes difficult to read.
11. Indian Pioneer Papers. Interviews conducted by the WPA sometimes give family and other historical information not found elsewhere. These are housed in the Indian Archives of the Oklahoma Historical Society and are reproduced on microfilm.
12. Removal Claims to the Board of Commissioners. Claims made for losses in the Cherokee Nation East of both land and personal property.
13. Cherokee Emigration Rolls 1817-1835. These records provide a listing of most "Old Settlers" emigrating during these years. These records have been printed in book form.
14. Cherokee Reserves. Information regarding those persons who claimed a reservation under the Treaties of 1817 and 1819 have been printed in book form.
15. The 1900 United States Census of the Cherokee Nation. This was the first census taken by the United States in Indian Territory.

Technologies like household solar PV and storage are set to become the new normal for our energy mix. With more power than ever before in the hands of consumers, Australia's electricity regulatory frameworks may require rethinking and adaption.
The challenge
While the uptake of small-scale solar and storage is driven by many influences, the interaction between these technologies and network investment is largely missed by our regulatory frameworks. The increasing contribution from these new devices can provide new benefits and costs to networks, but calculating these outcomes is challenging and must capture numerous technical influences.
The response
For this work the Clean Energy Council engaged EY to examine international examples and look at the real-world application of methodologies to calculate the value of the contribution of household solar and storage to distribution networks. The various approaches that could be taken remain open to debate. However, this critical analysis identifies a workable solution that deals with diversity across distribution networks, demand and generation characteristics.
While much more work will be required to fully implement the preferred methodology identified in the report, it provides a good platform to examine new approaches to network planning and pricing with an aim to help regulation catch up to new consumer demands.
Stakeholder workshops
Workshops were held in Perth, Brisbane and Melbourne during August 2015 to discuss this task with interested stakeholders. These discussions were informative and provided stakeholders with a deeper understanding of the opportunities to apply and further understand the methodology.
- Report: Calculating the value of small-scale generation to networks
- Fact sheet
- Workshop presentation
- Workshop minutes
A valuation aggregator tool and specification sheet is also available for parties interested in using this methodology.
Outcomes for various industry stakeholders
A significant amount of work remains necessary to explore the implementation of this framework, and the opportunities for others. However, the increasing importance of small-scale technologies like solar and storage to electricity supply should not be underestimated and this work should be viewed as an essential part of the ongoing electricity market reform. Electricity industry stakeholders should consider the following outcomes.
Small-scale generation and storage stakeholders
Small-scale energy technologies are playing a rapidly growing role in our electricity supply system. However, the evolution of regulatory frameworks to meet changing consumer expectations will take much time and effort. EY's work has identified that on a technical level the true value of technologies like solar and storage will be revealed in the services they can provide to electricity networks.
Importantly, many of the technologies which are being deployed already can now provide these services. Although the demand for them is currently low it is important not to lose sight of the fact that they are likely to be considered essential to future electricity network design and regulation.
Distribution Network Service Providers (DNSPs)
The proposed methodology provides one possible option to evaluate the contribution of distributed energy resources to networks, and DNSPs should consider the utility of this approach. In particular the methodology would be best considered in future analysis of constrained distribution feeders to build experience and highlight major hurdles to its implementation more broadly.
DNSPs would have a large role to play in the design and implementation of any methodology for evaluating the contribution from small-scale resources to networks. The design and associated reforms would need more comprehensive engagement, consultation and input. DNSPs are urged to continue to participate in these discussions.
Governments, policy makers and regulators
Governments must continue to assess the suitability of regulatory frameworks under increasing penetrations of solar and storage, as well as alternative approaches and methods of evaluating the contribution of these technologies to networks.
In order to more fully understand the opportunities for implementing a valuation framework, governments should pursue and support further work to assess and document other alternative approaches to a similar level of detail to the feeder-by-feeder methodology described here. The ways in which benefits identified by such a methodology should be apportioned to the various contributors also needs to be explored, along with costs that could be apportioned outside of the current 'last-mover' approach.
The role of this study in the FPDI program
This task fits within the FPDI project's "Regulatory and Economic Frameworks" work stream which aims to draw together the perspectives of industry stakeholders to provide an accurate assessment of the regulatory challenges facing distributed generation or storage, and how current incentives and business models could be structured to achieve efficient deployment of the technologies.
It assesses a range of alternative options for evaluating the value of the contribution of small-scale distributed energy resources to networks and has identified a methodology which could be implemented in Australian conditions. This task complements work currently underway in Task 2D which looks at the interaction between larger distributed energy resources and networks.

A Seattle apartment building has new tenants called cockroaches. The
renters were all up in arms and wanted the nasty pests gone. Unfortunately,
if one unit has an infestation chances are the cockroaches have started
moving to other apartments because the pests can move very quickly. A
thorough investigation will seek out how the yucky bugs have gained access
to the building. A Pest Control company is needed to deal with such a vast
cockroach infestation.
Exterminators for Puget Sound area including: Seattle, Auburn, Bellevue, Bothell, Burien, Carnation,Covington, Des Moines, Edmonds, Everett, Fall City, Federal Way, Goldbar, Issaquah, Kirkland, Kenmore, Kent, Lake Forest Park, Lake Stevens, Lynnwood, Maltby, Maple Valley, Mercer Island, Mill Creek, Monroe, Mukilteo, Newcastle, Normandy Park, North Bend, Preston,Redmond, Renton, Richmond Beach, Sammamish, Seatac, Shoreline, Snohomish, Snoqualmie, Startup, Sultan, Tukwila,Tacoma, puyallup,Woodinville, Snohomish County, King County.
There is a widespread Cockroach problem in Seattle
Seattle has had many pest control companies contacted regarding cockroach infestations. The nasty bugs are sneaky and are constantly looking for nice warm and moist spots to settle into. Besides apartment buildings the cockroaches are attacking Residential homes. All of which are keeping Pest Eliminators very busy. What type of bug is this: The German Cockroach is the most common species found and the unwanted pests are invading the Pacific Northwest. The first thing the tenant and apartment manager need to do is identify the bugs. The manager emailed a photo to a Pest control eliminator. Confirmed it is German cockroaches. Which was crucial information in order to prepare the correct products to exterminate the infestation.
Apartment Managers should have pest control on speed dial be notified of any pest infestation:
Mainly because there may be an ongoing infestation in another unit and pest control hasn't been contacted yet. Also there may be a rental agreement that states management is responsible for contacting a pest control company and pay the service costs. On the other hand the pest control costs may be the tenant's responsibility. Be aware that a Pest control professional will not apply a cockroach infestation treatment until the job order is signed by the building manager or owner if responsibility lies on management. Definitely Pest Control needed, after tenant spoke with the apartment manager learned that other units were infested with German cockroaches also. In this particular case, the tenants reported the problem and the Manager stated that the financial responsibility would be paid by the management. Manager starts the research to find a more effective and experienced pest control team to find the jobs. This infestation is no joke.
How the yucky cockroaches get into the apartmen ask the advice of commercial exterminators
Cockroaches are nasty and disgusting. The yucky yucks do not give up and look for cracks and crevices to hide in and ways to access other units. One definite way of getting into the neighbor's unit is through the electrical outlets Apartment tenants share walls and nasty pests. The creepy cockroaches always come out at night. Watch out when a light is turned on late at night. Pandemonium breaks out with Cockroaches seen running in all directions. Cockroaches will contaminate all sources of food with secretions from the glands, saliva and droppings. Spreading salmonella that causes food poisoning. People can be affected by allergic reactions to the disease laden bugs.
Get rid of the nasty German Cockroaches:
Cockroach infestations in apartment units happen for many reasons. Examples of how the yucky bugs invade an entire apartment would be the cockroaches hopping a ride on shipping containers, grocery bags and cardboard boxes. These are excellent forms of access into a building and unit. Used appliances are also sources for these dirty pests to gain entry. Cockroaches reproduce at a high rate and if the infestation is not discovered immediately then it's out of control in no time. Manager and tenants have had it. Time to call in a Pest Control Exterminator.
AMPM Exterminators evict the Cockroach Infestation:
Cockroach prevention needs excellent daily sanitization practices Cleanliness is indeed next to Godliness. Thorough cleaning of the kitchen and bathroom, especially, is crucial. But the prevention practices includes the entire apartment unit and building. Taking the garbage out on a daily basis. Do not leave food out anywhere in the apartment. As soon as meals or snacks are finished clear away food. If not then it's open invitation for cockroaches to come on in. The Seattle Apartment Manager was notified and after a building investigation the decision was made to call AMPM Exterminators for professional help with the Cockroach Infestation.
The experienced technician at AMPM Exterminators explained that an elimination of this type of infestation could require multiple visits. The apartment manager was instructed to notify all tenants to follow all of the preliminary steps for a successful extermination before treatment was applied. Not complying would mean having to repeat the service. AMPM Exterminators is very successful in taking care of this serious issue. Pest control professionals take great pride in the success rate of eliminating the Cockroaches. AMPM technicians are very thorough and diligent in the process of exterminating the infestation. Cockroaches may have been new tenants in a Seattle Apartment building but were soon evicted by AMPM Exterminators.

The rain of Sony's apps just keeps on coming. After several rounds of apps coming from the Xperia Z2 meant for other Xperia devices, we have another batch of apps, this time ported for more generic availability, to some extent.
Barely a month after the Xperia Z2 was unveiled to the public, some rather enterprising developers have started extracting those Sony-exclusive apps and distributing them, initially compatible only with other Sony smartphones. Sony actually also put some of those up on Google Play Store and surprisingly made them available to other brands as well. This latest batch from XDA Senior Member JanM RS takes the latest versions of those apps and puts them up for everyone to enjoy. That is, if they can make them work on your non-Xperia device.
Sony Lifelog has been made available for the public just last month. While it can work with any smartphone, even without a Sony SmartWatch 2, the device must be running Android 4.4. Walkman, Movies, and Album have lower version requirements and seems to work just fine when sideloaded on Galaxy Note 3 running Android 4.4. The Video Unlimited app, unsurprisingly, did not install at all.
Also included are Sony's camera addons which have an even heavier requirement set. They will only work on Xperia devices, running Android 4.3 or higher, and has the Sony Social Camera app installed. The effects that you can download, should you meet those requirements, are AR-effects with Addons, Background Defocus, Info-eye, Timeshift burst, and Social live. Hit the link below to get a full list of the apps including download links.
