CRRoyalty is a Royalty Loan Program that allows a CrowdCo (companies seeking funding) to secure capital without giving up any control of their company. CRRoyalty allows CrowdCos to get loans in exchange for royalties on future sales. This is a strategic alternative for crowdfunding as it allows CrowdVestors (those backing a project) the ability to financially support a campaign by receiving royalties in exchange for their financial loan to that company. The CrowdCo receives their capital and gives up no equity in their company.
The royalty loan is a term certain loan which means periodic payments through royalty payments are made for a fixed term. CRRoyalty allows for a buyout clause and there can be a maximum royalty payout. It also allows for the potential of up to 24 months of development for the CrowdCo when no royalty income would be available for the CrowdVestors. Each CRRoyalty project is unique and the amount funded, the projected sales, and the royalty portion of gross sales offered will affect the return on loan projected.
CRRoyalty can be a royalty loan program with or without principal coverage for the campaign backers. CrowdFund Roundup's CRCover product allows CrowdVestors to protect all or a portion of their royalty loan thus appealing to many different levels of CrowdVestors.
One of the unique features of CRRoyalty is the ability to set levels of funding that activate the facility. The CrowdCo will set a Targeted Raise, which is the amount of money they would like to raise during their campaign. There is also a CRRoyalty Loan Go Point which is the minimum amount that must be reached before the CrowdCo can pull the funds, which means the CrowdCo can move forward. A Maximum Raise can also be set thus allowing CrowdCos to raise funds above and beyond the Targeted Raise amount thus giving them even more capital to be effective. The additional amount of money raised will not affect or dilute the original Royalty Units paid in the initial Targeted Raise.
For further detail on CRRoyalty, please read our CRRoyalty FAQ or please contact us for more information.

Summertime and the Livin's Easy
My knuckles are officially white and tired.
I never go down fighting because I know what's coming. (shiver)
All you fall ladies? I'm sorry. I just don't get you.
Don't hate me.
Fall has its charms, like pumpkin cupcakes and roast chicken and knee socks.
But it mostly means that summer has left us.
It means that winter is pushing towards us.
Doesn't that make you want to snot-cry?
Or maybe you live in one of the states where the temp only fluctuates 20 or 30 degrees all year.
(Can I take your guest room? The couch? I travel with 5 additional people. Will this be a problem?)
You're so money and you don't even know it.
I shall honor you today with strawberry cake, fresh salsa, and a reading bender in a hammock.
I'll be right here, fighting for you.
I'll continue to be your biggest advocate and your best friend.
Incidentally, I'm also BFFs with salsa, cereal, and various neglected and under-appreciated foods such as brussels sprouts, canned tuna, and red beets.
Does this pose a problem?
Don't answer that, Summer.
Forget I even mentioned it.
Just put it out of your mind.
Yours Alone,
I want to hop in that truck and kick it late-summer harvest-style.
Get your copy of Beki's farmy love right here.

Come to Texas where it is summer approximately 98% of the year. I have a couch and trundle bed. And an unlimited supply of salsa and TexMex. :)ReplyDelete
I'm white-knuckling summer, too. Like a boss. I shush people who even mention fall.ReplyDelete
That book!!!
Ummm, nope not feeling your angst. I love fall and have a hard crush on winter :) Lest you think I'm from a temperate state I have to say I'm a neighbor from MI. I am ready to say good bye to lank hair, make up that will not stay put and putting clinical deodorant on twice a day and can't wait to say Hello to hair that stays fluffy without a helmet of hairspray, eye shadow that doesn't crease, the smell of fall and clothes that don't stick to parts that I don't want to have clothes stuck to.ReplyDeleteReplies
You make a compelling case.Delete
Perhaps part of the breakdown is that my hair is NEVER fluffy. ??
Also, I'm not a sweaty person. Don't hate.
Oh your hair is fluffy in a soft way. I may hate you a little for not being sweaty though ;)Delete
I know exactly what you mean. I sweat walking out of the AC at 6:30 a.m.! My feet sweat even in sandals! Forget fixing hair. A few minutes outside and it has gone flat.Delete
Hailing from South Dakota where temps can soar to 110 in the Summer I have to say, sweat is a given and yuck. Can't wait for Fall!Delete
I'm so with you. England usually has 9 months of bad weather and then a disappointing summer!! But we love moaning about it over a cuppa and scone and to be fair when the sun shines the British countryside has got to be one of the most glorious places on earth. BUT this year the summer has been long and golden and delicious and I so don't want it to end. Sigh. Feeling brave, I can rock the autumn cosy til Christmas but then I'm so over the cold. Don't even whisper about January and February. See, love the moan!! Enjoy the sunbeams, farmgirl. xReplyDeleteReplies
Can I come visit you in England?Delete
I love it so much.
Back in 9th grade I bought an England tank top (mens size L prob) from Epcot Center and rocked it for years.
Don't hate, but I do love the bright blue skies and crisp air of fall....and it allows me to drink Cafe con Leche guilt free every morning! :-)ReplyDelete
HOWEVER, I LOVE, LOVE fresh flowers from summer on my table!Replies
I guess we can still be friends...Delete
Here in South Texas real winter weather usually only occurs for a few days at a time over about a 3 month period. There is plenty of warm weather! I am craving fall here just for a break in the 90 degree temps.ReplyDelete
Here in ye ole panhandle, we are waiting for Fall. Something about bugs the size of your hand, relentless mosquitoes, and back breaking heat, has us waiting for Fall. But, you see, here in this town, October is the best! We live for it....the golden hues, the cooler weather, the northern breeze. We pile the wood out back, and cozy around with percolator coffee and flannel shirts. Oh it is glorious!ReplyDelete
We see the extremes here--summertime highs of 110 and winter lows of 0. It's a harsh place here, and that is why, I have a special place in my heart for October. The perfect combination of everything, and a gentle reminder of why I choose to stick around :)
But I say, whatever makes you happy, rock it! Go enjoy your summer, it's not yet over.
I'm reading this and loving the thought of summer hanging around for one more month, BUT I'm wearing a sweater right now...all day in fact. *Sigh* I may have been born in the wrong state.ReplyDelete
I am a Fall girl through and through but after reading this today I took advantage of the ridiculously hot weather we are having in September, and took my girls to the river for what is probably the last time this year. As we left we waved goodbye to the river and shouted, "See you next Summer!" It was ridiculously sweet, and I thought about you. Then two minutes later in the car the three year old started singing 'Jingle Bells".... Sorry sister, my babies are ready for Fall!ReplyDelete
I refuse to slip into fall.ReplyDelete
I want more heat, chlorinated pools, tank tops and ice cream cones.
Winter is too long in Mn- and it didn't arrive til mid June.
The point: I am NOT done!!
I'm one of the girls you just don't get.ReplyDelete
BUT, you were right, it doesn't get near as cold here in winter, as it does where you're at.
you can crash on my couch any day...and bring the other 5, too.
I'm living up summer as long as it's here - snow is my arch enemy. Strawberry cake, fresh salsa and reading sound amazing! Beautiful pictures :-)ReplyDelete
Oh girl, it's still 95 degrees with 70% humidity here, usually through October. We about burned completely up at my son's soccer game yesterday. I was soaking wet. You come on down with your crew any time. :)ReplyDelete

haha I totally want to snot-cry too.ReplyDelete
Snot-cry. ::snort::ReplyDelete
um, 95 here today. yuck. ready for Fall. It's gorgeous in Oregon in the Fall. Winter is NOT my fav, but it only gets to the mid 20s as our lows. Rarely it gets colder. Summers are about 100+. fall and spring? 70s and low 80s= perfection!ReplyDelete
Amen! I love flip flops and hate outerwear of any kind.ReplyDelete
I get you about summer. I really really do. I live 1 degree above the equator and summer comes pouring in my windows and fading them 365 days a year. But I don't complain because I never have to move my bougainvilleas and as far as my children know, flip-flops are the only type of shoe that normal people wear.ReplyDelete
But lemme tell ya about the fast one Summer pulls. I don't think she's meaning to do it maliciously...I mean how CAN she mean it like that when she gives you BBQ weather for 12 months straight??...but after years where its only summer, you forget that time is really passing. Sure your kids are growing, the holidays come and go, dates move up and such...but the effect of time on YOU is lost til you have to go somewhere colder and more indoorsy like America. I'm not in any way dissing Summer. She's my buddy. But she's my buddy that makes me forget. Then I go to America and see photos of myself and I'm all like, "Wait? That lady looks a good 6 years older than before. When did that happen? It's only been 1 summer!?!"
Hold tight to her friend!Replies
Thanks for this. You are so endearing.
So I live in CA, so I can't really complain a whole lot, but you and me Girlfriend, we are summer lovers. I am also holding on to every last minute of summer.. I don't like the early sunsets and the chill. Let me just lay in the pool with my trashy mags.ReplyDelete

Will I Lose My Jewelry In Bankruptcy?
Answer: Probably not.
Schedule B in both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 Bankruptcy list all the assets you own. It's important to keep in mind that the debtor is responsible for listing all assets. Often, and understandably, debtors believe they are only to list the assets they believe to have value. But this is not the case; all assets are to listed.
"All Assets" includes everything you own, from the house and cars, to the old yellow dog that may be loping around in the backyard. All assets also includes your jewelry. Jewelry of course includes everything from your wedding rings, to the "junk jewelry" in the spare bedroom drawer that seemingly may have no value. Generally, your bankruptcy attorney will list these assets into two categories of jewelry; Wedding Rings and Costume Jewelry. If there are other expensive pieces of jewelry that you own, those may be given special attention as well.
Exemptions in Bankruptcy Save Assets
Just because you have jewelry, maybe even "expensive" jewelry, you will not necessarily lose them if you file for bankruptcy relief. The law allows you to save, or protect certain amounts of assets through applicable "exemptions". For example, the "Exemption" amount in Missouri dedicated to equity on ones residence is $15,000, meaning even if you have $15,000 of equity in your home, it is protected and is not subject to being taken by your creditors.
Bankruptcy Exemptions Applicable to Jewelry
Jewelry has two specific exemptions. The first is dedicated to wedding rings. The second is dedicated to "other jewelry", commonly referred to as "costume jewelry". In St. Louis and in all of Missouri, wedding rings are protected as an asset in bankruptcy up to a value of $1500 per debtor. Other jewelry is protected to the amount of $500.
So what does this mean? This means that if you have wedding rings worth a total current value of less than $3000 total per couple, they are protected through the applicable Missouri exemptions. The same holds true with the rest of your jewelry, in that those items, taken at value, are protected up to a value of $500 per debtor.
I have Too Much Jewelry to File for Bankruptcy
Maybe not. In some cases, your jewelry may be protected by the application of other exemptions that are not specific to your jewelry. Depending on your specific case, and specific assets, the Wildcard, and the Head of Household exemptions may be applied to your jewelry. These exemptions are discussed more thoroughly in other post, but generally these are additional amounts of non-specific exemption protection that may be applied to any asset, in case the specific exemption dedicated to that asset does not fully protect it. Here in St. Louis County, the proper use of these exemption can make all the difference when sitting with the trustee at your 341 Meeting of the Creditors.
It is very important that you give your attorney your honest opinion of the value of all your property; even if you believe an item is worth more that the applicable exemption. There are ways to protect your property, even jewelry. However, your attorney can only protect what he or she knows exists.
Always consult with your bankruptcy attorney if you have questions.

The last issue of the Construction Journal for 2017 is upon us, and it seems appropriate to cover an area that has continued to develop throughout the year – namely, technology.
Despite Brexit and other global uncertainties, digital construction continues to move forward at a pace – from the evolution of 3D printing to the impact of technology on international standards – as the recent Digital Construction Week at London's ExCel Centre showed.
In this issue, Xavier De Kestelier considers how 3D printing can be successfully applied in the industry, looking at where it originated, the effects of late adoption, and projects where it has been used effectively. Marion Hitchcock meanwhile reflects on the adoption of building information modelling (BIM), and how the government's BIM Level 2 mandate has been received 18 months after its introduction.
Elsewhere, RICS' Dave Ramsay outlines the link between proptech and guidance in driving the sector forward, while our Quantity Surveying Group Chairman Justin Sullivan considers how the International Construction Measurement Standards can improve efficiency and global communication for small businesses.
Outgoing RICS President Amanda Clack provides the leader piece for this issue, arguing that technology is a crucial means of creating and stimulating innovation, while Alex MacLaren offers insight into student engagement and the way education is essential to modernising and improving the built environment sector. To help APC candidates prepare for their all-important final assessments, David Cohen provides five tips for success, and Ellie Scott encourages members to participate in consultations in her piece on iConsult.
We also have articles on constructing smart buildings from Archie Corliss, off-site construction developments by Andy King, and how smart buildings can contribute to health and wellbeing from Catriona Brady and Dr Naghman Khan. RICS Associate Director of Built Environment Steven Thompson kicks things off by sharing his opinions on the digital revolution.
As ever, we are keen to know your thoughts on these issues and any that you think deserve coverage, so do please get in touch.
Hannah Ramsden
Hannah generates and discusses ideas with RICS professionals and commissions content to ensure that titles remain topical and relevant to surveyors in these disciplines at all stages of their career. Hannah has previously worked in legal, healthcare, arts and educational publishing at a variety of organisations in the UK.

At a recent convention of The Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association (CSPOA) in St. Louis, more than 200 law enforcement officers, state lawmakers, county officials and concerned citizens gathered to discuss strategies to resist and to nullify the lawless actions of the federal government, and of many state governments, particularly in the area of gun control.
The remarks made by Police Chief Mark Kessler of Gilberton Borough, PA, were typical of the sentiment of the group.
On January 3rd of this year, Kessler drafted a "Second Amendment Protection Resolution" for his Pennsylvania town which, when passed by city officials a few weeks later, nullified every single gun control law in the nation.
"If you want to own a firearm," Chief Kessler said, "the Second Amendment is your concealed carry permit, period. It has nothing to do with self-defense: it has to do with freedom from tyranny."
Police Chief Kessler went on to say:
"Nullification is the key. We just have to tell them, 'that's it'. I drew my line in the sand back on Jan 3rd. One person can make a difference: you just need to do something about it."
Well, Amen.
Remember, when a law enforcement officer, like Chief Kessler, refuses to enforce an unconstitutional act, he is not breaking the law, he is upholding the law.
This is because unconstitutional acts of legislatures are NOT the law.
We recommend that you give your support to the Constitutional Sheriff and Police Officers Association, whose mission is to equip sheriffs, peace officers and public officials with the necessary information and public support to carry out their duties in accordance with their Oaths of Office.

The Obama administration is overhauling poultry plant inspections for the first time in more than 50 years, a move it says could result in 5,000 fewer foodborne illnesses each year.
The final rules announced Thursday would reduce the number of government poultry inspectors by around a fourth. But those that remain will focus more on food safety than quality, requiring them to pull more birds off the line for closer inspections and encouraging more testing for pathogens. There would also be more inspectors ensuring plants are clean.
The changes would be voluntary, but many of the country's largest poultry companies are expected to opt in.
USDA originally proposed the rule in January 2012. Consumer groups criticized that proposal, saying it would shift too much of the inspection burden to industry. (AP)

Recently CATS Motors, Inc. (CMI, exclusive distributor of Mercedes Benz vehicles in the country) held its own version of SMB, launching the new S-Class (221 body), M-Class and B-Class models in lively celebrations at the NBC Tent (The Fort).
The new S-class brings to the crowded ultrapremium sedan segment a new chassis (billed as the 221 body) and an option of two body lengths (5076 mm or 5206 mm). Both 5076 mm (S-350) and 5206 mm (S-500) lengthwise dimensions are 33 mm and 43 mm longer, respectively, than the previous S-Class. With the added dimensions in length the wheelbase has also been increased by 70 mm for the Php 8.8M S-350 (for a 3035 mm wheelbase) and 80 mm for the Php 10.8M S-500 (for a 3165 mm wheelbase). In addition the body is now 16 mm wider and 29 mm higher than in the 220-body S-Class, thus creating the basis for an interior space concept reminiscent of its Maybach 57 and Maybach 62 brethren.
The S-class brings a wealth of features to provide the discerning chief executive officer or six-figure income earner with comfort one can experience in his or her home. The proprietary Mercedes Benz COMAND (Cockpit Management and Data, Stuttgart's answer to the BMW iDrive) links all navigation and audio/video controls to just one receiver (located at the console between the driver and front passenger) and comes with an eight-inch center-mounted monitor, DVD and MP3 capability. The Airmatic airbag suspension (with Active Body Control) provides for continual adjustment to the spring (and these are air springs we're talking about) and shock absorber rates for the benefit of ride comfort and handling stability, with three driver-selectable modes for the adaptive shock damping. Electric-powered, rear-mounted roller-motion door blinds provide privacy from prying eyes at the touch of a button and a night view assist feature helps occupants see what is going on around them in the presence or absence of light, while a reversing camera (in which the vehicle's rear viewpoint is displayed on the COMAND monitor) helps drivers perfect parallel parking and long backing maneuvers. And if that's not luxurious enough, the S-500 features the following: a TV tuner, a Harman Kardon LOGIC 7 surround sound system, a rear refrigerator box (mounted within the rear seat backrest), multi-contour seats with massage function and a fold-down table at the rear left and right.
The S-Class' seven-speed automatic tranny (a/t) is mated to two engines: a 272 hp 3.5-liter V6 (for the S-350) and a 388 hp 5.5-liter V8 (for the S-500). A car this powerful needs efficient brakes, and the sedan's Adaptive Brake system, coupled with an ABS-Brake Assist combination, makes stopping on dimes, centavos, pesos and other forms of currency the norm instead of being the exception. In case the brakes fail (or if an accident is inevitable), each passenger has his own seat-mounted side airbag and headliner-mounted head curtain airbag, which deploy according to accident severity. Also, the rear backrests are "crash-responsive," such that they return to an upright position to give occupants better rebound protection.
The new-look Php 5.5M ML 350 features a blend of heavily contoured surfaces and taut lines, all of which serve to highlight the swept-back windshield, the front fascia, the SUV's rising shoulderline and the overall brash sporting look of the vehicle. Powered by a 272 hp, 3.5-liter V6 (mated to a seven-speed a/t), the ML 350 weathers the roughest of terrain with features such as: permanent all-wheel drive, Acceleration Skid Control, a Downhill Speed Regulator, an Electronic Stability Program and Electronic Traction System.
Large helpings of bird's eye maple wood and brushed aluminum trim help define the handsome, sporty stack and console which has been modernized to include two of the largest cupholders man has ever seen.
In the back, passengers have over 39 inches of legroom to stretch their hamstrings and quads, nearly four inches more than found in the BMW X5's rear seat. Climate controls are mounted behind the front center console, and there's a center armrest in the rear seat that folds down to display cupholders large enough to hold a couple of Wendy's Biggie-sized softdrinks.
Stuttgart's answer to the BMW 1-series comes in two flavors � B 170 (powered by a 116 hp 1.7-liter inline-four engine) and B 200 (powered by a 136 hp two-liter inline four). This "compact sports tourer" meets the wishes of today's motorists for a car with generous space, exemplary comfort, excellent practicality, an exciting design and a high level of driving pleasure.
How? For starters, flinging the B-Class through hairpin corners and u-turns is sure to activate the car's speed-sensitive power steering, Steer Control Steering Assistance and Electronic Stability Program for razor-sharp handling and cornering. Loading the B-Class with cargo is an easy task, thanks to the split folding rear bench seat, a dual-level load compartment and a 1/3:2/3 split folding rear bench seat. And doubts about the B-Class models getting the 116 hp (or 136 hp) to the ground are put to rest with the Autotronic continuously variable automatic transmission, with the B 200 featuring steering wheel gearshift buttons for touring racer-style shifting and standard speed-sensitive power steering for safety purposes.
The combination of luxury, practicality, comfort and driving fun seen in the B-Class is due to Mercedes Benz's "sandwich concept", a space-saving arrangement of the engine and a/t in front of and slightly underneath the passenger cell, thus offering the interior spaciousness of larger saloons and estate cars in a compact external shell. And a lot of features normally found in sedans and long wheelbase passenger cars, such as seats wrapped in Artico man-made leather or Maastricht fabric, adaptive front airbags and head/thorax side airbags and a multifunction steering wheel.
The B 170 is pegged at P 2.250M, while the B 200 is pegged at P2.750M.

This afternoon the Premier League announced its first round of TV selections for the new season (the English Football League also announced their changes earlier this week). The FSF's Kick-Off Times Working Group has issued the following statement:
Supporters are once again being asked to spend more of their time traipsing across the country to meet broadcasters' needs at ridiculous times. Three more games are also being broadcast in September this season than were last season.
There are so many examples which put fans out it's difficult to know where to begin, although TV's efforts in giving Newcastle United fans 4pm Sunday kick-offs at Swansea City and Brighton stand out.
Other trips which will sting supporters include Manchester City's trips to both Brighton on Saturday evening and Bournemouth on a Saturday lunchtime, Huddersfield Town at West Ham United on a Monday night, and Spurs' trip to Newcastle for a 1.30pm Sunday start.
Meanwhile, Spurs and Burnley fans still await confirmation from the Premier League as to when their match, scheduled for 26 August - the same day as the Rugby League Challenge Cup Final at Wembley - will be played.
Supporters will also ask October and November's fixtures cannot be announced at this time - this would allow match-going fans to book time off work and order advance rail tickets.
Katrina Law of Tottenham Hotspur Supporters' Trust, who sits on the FSF's kick-off times working group, added:
"Today's announcement sees yet more inconvenience for match-going fans at the hands of the Premier League, Sky and BT Sport. It is clear there is still a long way to go before fans are properly considered by broadcasters and acknowledged as both integral to the success of the game and their product.
"We continue to call for urgent all-party consultation with the Premier League, broadcasters and fan organisations on this issue."

text: This is also quite ripe but agreeably fresh with pure aromas of mocha, red currant, cassis, black cherry, warm earth, violets and subtle spice hints. There is good energy to the intense and admirably rich full-bodied flavors that envelope the palate with velvety sap on the beautifully balanced and impressively persistent finish. I very much like the sense of underlying tension because despite this being a big wine with plenty of concentration, the balance is impeccable and there is absolutely nothing ponderous about this complete effort. There is a hint of backend warmth but otherwise, this is really most impressive. Note however that this very firm effort will require plenty of cellar time. Outstanding! 94 Points, Drink 2029+.

Lagos to absorb graduates of Ready.Set.Work
Plans are underway by the Lagos State government to recruit some of the newly graduated participants of the Ready.Set.Work (RSW) training programme.
The entrepreneurship programme was organised by the Ministry of Education to improve employability and entrepreneurial skills of final year students in the state-owned tertiary institutions.
Governor Akinwunmi Ambode, said this in his remarks at the graduation of 422 undergraduates, who successfully completed the 13-week training programme. Two final year students of the Lagos State College Of Health Technology, Yaba, won the maiden "Business Pitch Competition," with their innovative business idea-generating biogas from cow dung.
With this innovation the team in addition to winning the N1m seed funding and N100 monthly working capital for the duration of six months, also received N5m extra donated by the governor.
"RSW programme was conceived as a capacity building initiative, targeted at final year students in Lagos State tertiary institutions, with a vision to ensure our graduates emerge as ready products for the increasingly competitive labour market, and more importantly, as job creators.
"In the face of ongoing economic challenges, this is a time to push ahead with the same strength and focus that brought you to this point, and to pursue with vigour, the knowledge, skills, and ideas formed in you over the last three months. As pilots and ambassadors of RSW, you must uphold the positive values of decorum, respect, and self-management. As a government we would open access to recruit some of the graduates of this initiative."
Commending the companies and corporate organisations that provided funding and technical support for the success of the scheme, he stated that his administration believes strongly that the future of the state, and the country at large, lies in the hands of its youths.
The Special Adviser to the Governor on Education, Mr. Obafela Bank-Olemoh, in his remarks stated that the programme was a response to series of complaints on the quality of graduates churned out of various institutions in the country.
He added that with well-equipped and adequately prepared graduates, the state and the nation at large would continue to prosper in its endeavours.
Managing director of SystemSpecs, one of the partners of the RSW programme Mr. John Obaro, challenged government at all levels to replicate the project, and also endeavour to provide enabling environment for youths to thrive.
Obaro in a chat with The Guardian at the event noted that Nigerian youths are smart and ingenious, adding that it is only the right environment that would bring out the resourcefulness in them.
"Many of our youths are waiting for opportunities. They are full of energy and smart. This is the reason they record huge successes once they leave the shores of this country. We need to begin to change our orientation as well as encourage our youths."

At approximately 10:48 a.m. eastern daylight time on July 2, 1970, Short Brothers & Harland, Ltd., Skyvan Series 3, NZlCK, operated by Jetco Aviation, Inc., Washington, D. C., as air taxi cargo flight, Flight 106, crashed during a VOR approach to Washington National Airport. The aircraft was demolished but did not burn. Both crewmembers received fatal injuries. There were no passengers.
According to witnesses, the aircraft was first visible to them, through fog and haze, when it was 700 to 800 feet above and about one-half mile out from the threshold of Runway 15.
Shortly after the aircraft came into view of the witnesses, it nosed down and rolled left until the wings were nearly vertical. The nosedown angle steepened progressively until it reached 45° or more. The aircraft struck the water of Roaches Run in this attitude, cartwheeled onto the right wingtip and sank in water 12 to 15 feet deep about 1,800 feet north of the threshold of Runway 15.
The Board determines that the probable cause of this accident was the loss of effective elevator control due to the forward shift of improperly-secured cargo when the aircraft was placed in a steep nosedown attitude during a landing approach in reduced visibility conditions.

2017 Jeep Wrangler Automatic Review Car
Sunday, April 2, 2017 Add Comment Edit
2017 Jeep Wrangler Automatic Review Car Broadly speaking, the past 75 years have already been fairly good for humans. Disorders happen to be eradicated, food supplies have greater, distant planets are already explored, and-thanks largely to the integrated circuit plus the resultant microchip-personal communication has become streamlined for the stage of intrusion. In spite of this enlightened existence, our lizard brains are nevertheless lively, eagerly recognizing entities which have resisted alter with reptilian resolve. Perhaps that is why anyone from toddlers to university coeds to grizzled ex-military types went all warm and fuzzy when our Jeep Wrangler Sahara 75th Anniversary Edition check motor vehicle came into view.
2017 Jeep Wrangler Automatic Review Car
Universally recognized and instantly identifiable, the Jeep Wrangler remains the poster youngster for mass-produced automotive simplicity. (Note that the British Morgan can not be viewed as "mass-produced" by any usually means, and other long-serving off-roaders for example the Mercedes-Benz G-class as well as Toyota Land Cruiser have created acquiescing towards the comfort and luxury demands of the public a aggressive sport.) That mentioned, the current Wrangler has evolved, and an all-new 2018 Wrangler is slated to debut while in the not-too-distant potential. Even though we could have cursory know-how of what luxuries and concessions to the demands of modern life the brand new Wrangler may possibly deliver, we figured now was the time to consider a last examine the two-door Wrangler as we know it. (Go right here for a check out the present four-door Wrangler Unlimited.)
A late-2016 model, our 75th Anniversary Wrangler Sahara rolled off the line with normal front airbags (seat-mounted side airbags are an additional $495), disc brakes whatsoever 4 corners, traction handle, and electronic stability handle. Not too shabby for any dinosaur. Searching a little bit deeper in to the establish sheet exposed more indulgences for example air conditioning, cruise management, remote keyless entry, a leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio controls, energy windows, and energy door locks.
2017 Jeep Wrangler Automatic Review Car - Interior:
Lest you get started to imagine the Wrangler is getting somewhat soft, allow us remind you that despite the accoutrements, its basic formula stays precisely the same: a ladder frame with sound front and rear axles (a Dana thirty in front plus a Dana 44 within the rear) as well as a utilitarian part-time four-wheel-drive system. Torque in the corporate 285-hp three.6-liter Pentastar V-6 is funneled to a five-speed automatic transmission, which passes the output on the wheels through a two-speed, shift-on-the-fly, four-wheel-drive transfer situation. (A six-speed manual gearbox is conventional; the automatic expenditures an extra $1350 and also brings hill-descent handle.) Underneath, skid plates secure the transfer case as well as the fuel tank from sharp obstacles.
Just because the purpose-driven specifics of your Jeep's hardware restored our faith from the Wrangler's mission, we scanned down to obtain the Jeep 75th Anniversary bundle. While it does incorporate a couple of items that no less than allude to genuine off-road action (reinforced Rock Rails side techniques, 17-inch wheels with 245/75 tires, and a Trac-Lok locking rear differential), it is primarily a $4680 cosmetic and ease tour de force. Interior upgrades consist of Ombre Mesh leather-and-cloth seats (heated up front), a 75th Anniversary passenger grab deal with, the ability to demonstrate additional things in the cluster's facts display, the Connectivity Group, in addition to a fetching Moroccan Sun-colored instrument-panel bezel. Exterior enhancements contain bronze-tone tow hooks (two front, 1 rear), a body-color grille, a Electrical power Dome hood, painted front and rear bumpers, and bronze-colored badging.
Further confusing the Wrangler's simplicity aspect could be the $1785 Dual Best Group, which includes a rear-window defroster and washer/wiper for the hardtop-which our motor vehicle did not have fitted for the duration of our test-while a headliner is surely an added $495. Finally, the order sheet continued to check our enthusiasm with nickel-and-dime features that we'd most likely by no means buy on a Jeep: remote start ($495), a 6.5-inch touchscreen infotainment system with navigation ($600), Alpine premium nine-speaker audio ($945), and also the foolish-for-a-Wrangler upgraded A/C with automated climate control and also a humidity sensor ($395). Pro tip: If you're sticking to the seats, it's hot and humid, so attain more than and alter the climate manage accordingly. Much better nonetheless, take away the top rated and doors.
2017 Jeep Wrangler Automatic Review Car - Features:
One particular cost that we will wholeheartedly endorse could be the limited-slip rear differential. Not only does it add a Tru-Lok air-activated locking rear diff in spot on the normal, limited-slip Trac-Lok, nevertheless it also swaps out the stock 3.21:one gearset for any 3.73:one ratio front and rear. At $1500, it is a relative bargain for any one interested in actually going off-road. All in, this Wrangler rang the register at $44,380. Contemplating that it is probable to depart the dealership having a Wrangler Willys Wheeler using the three.73 axles for any sticker selling price of just above $29K, buyers will choose to believe extended and hard about their motives for wanting a Wrangler 75th.
Climb behind the wheel and also the lizard brain requires more than once more. The doors shut with the primitive resonance of type following perform, the seating position is upright, and out of the blue 75 years of progress are lowered to a footnote. Normal tests of straight-line efficiency reveal a zero-to-60-mph time of seven.five seconds-not bad-with the quarter-mile taking a far more languid 15.9 seconds at 85 mph; both measures improved the numbers posted from the last 2016 Wrangler Unlimited by in excess of a 2nd. If acceleration feels labored, braking and roadholding appear to push the Wrangler to the ragged edge of acceptable limits to get a motor vehicle produced within the 21st century. Stopping from 70 mph consumed 205 feet, and our check driver reported "squirrely" behavior under braking. Grip maxed out at only 0.69 g, along with the Wrangler felt tippy in cornering-the intervention of the non-defeatable stability manage in fact was welcome. Highway comfort also is within a class of its very own, a single that involves you to accept a choppy ride, massive amounts of tire and wind noise, and every one of the steering precision of a hot-air balloon inside a hurricane.
But in the driver's seat, all of that seems irrelevant. All the things from your tires on the foldable windshield are just resources that help to produce a vibe, an encounter, a state of mind, plus the removable major and doors even further enrich the feeling. However, most adults cannot fritter away their days carelessly four-wheeling across an countless seaside in search of cold brewskis and warm tacos. But, because of contemporary technologies, they are able to drive a Wrangler in preparation for your one week a 12 months after they ditch actuality and allow their lizard brains regain management. Let's hope the next-generation Wrangler doesn't overthink points.

SINGAPORE (Reuters) - First it was sex, then casinos. Now, a Singapore diplomat has been charged with inflating the number of pineapple tarts and bottles of wine carried on official visits in the latest corruption case to hit the squeaky clean city-state.
Lim Cheng Hoe, former chief of protocol at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, allegedly overbilled authorities by around S$89,000 ($71,100) by overstating the amount of gifts bought for official purposes between 2008 and 2012.
Lim faces 60 charges and could be jailed for up to three years on each charge if found guilty.
Singapore, a wealthy Asian finance and trade center ranked as the world's fifth least corrupt country by Transparency International, has been embarrassed by a number of recent cases involving senior officials.
Earlier this year, the former head of the civil defense force and a law professor were found guilty of corruptly accepting sexual favors. A former chief of the police's anti-drugs squad faced similar charges but was acquitted.
More recently, an assistant director of the anti-corruption watchdog was charged with misappropriating S$1.7 million. Part of the money allegedly was used for gambling at the Marina Bay Sands casino.
Pineapple tarts are bite-sized snacks popular in many Asian countries. The versions favored in Singapore and Malaysia are open-faced buttery pastries topped with sweet pineapple jam.

Events 2004 - Simplex loco
This article was published May 17, 2012.
At October the 15th 2004, when driving from Gothenburg to Stockholm for Hans Hammarstens Westridge Mini Meet, I did stop on the way for taking some photos on a simplex loco at FMBBM.
The pictures are a bit dark, the time got to five in the afternoon when I arrived, got delayed by work, but rather ok anyhow thanks to my measure-stick which I used as a ´tripod´ or maybe I should I call it a ´single pod´.
Both rails are 2 foot gauge. ÖSLJ is a few miles west of Stockholm.
On the way home I did also stop at Läggesta (end-station of ÖSLJ) and took some nice photos on a Nyberget ore wagon.

Dates are a fruit from the date palm. Medjool Dates, AKA the "King of Dates" are a soft, large variation of date that are sweet with a caramel-like flavour. They've traditionally been grown in North Africa and the Middle East, but are now grown in North America, specifically California.
Most people enjoy Medjool dates because they satisfy your sweet tooth while also being good for you. In moderation of course, because these sweet little morsels do have a high natural sugar content. Here are some of the nutrients and health benefits linked to Medjool dates:
- Easy to digest – which means its nutrients are easier for your body to absorb
- High in fibre – Specifically soluble fibre, which helps to maintain healthy blood sugar and cholesterol levels, also softens stool 🙂
- Source of copper – An essential trace metal in your body. Aids in the absorption and use of iron, maintains normal brain and red blood cell function
- Selenium – Helps immune functioning, linked to cancer prevention and contains 23 types of amino acids
- Vitamin B6– 6% of the suggested daily intake with just 2 dates
- High in Potassium – Potassium helps to maintain heart rate and blood pressure. Bite for bite you're getting 3X the amount of potassium with a date vs. a banana!
Medjool dates have been linked to several other health benefits, Google away and you can find additional sources and information.
If you're interested in purchasing Medjool dates, you can find them at most supermarkets. Our local Whole Foods sells small containers of organic dates in their prepackaged section. That's where I bought the dates I used in this Rawnola Recipe. If you don't have a Whole Foods near you, we've also purchased Natural Delights dates from other supermarkets. They have a store locator on their website that shows where you can pick up these little bites of heaven!

I looked up at the two stories in front of me. I had memorized the Zillow listing because I thought it was the house I was searching for since I moved to a new city. Envisioning an episode of HGTV come to life, I always planned on buying an old home. Recessed shelving? Check. Fireplace? Check. Hardwood floors that would make your mother cry? Check. But when I got into the house, I was hit with a wall of information from the realtor about what the house and older homes in general, require compared to newer homes.
Buying an older home can have quite a few benefits in and of itself, but there are definitely a few things you should be on the lookout for, too. Here I'll break down the pros and cons of buying an older home and maybe even give you a few ideas to make your next home purchase a little simpler.
It's easier than ever to design your dream home and have it built anywhere in the world, so why are so many people opting to buy older properties?
An older home has a kind of character that a new-built property couldn't possibly equal. If you're really lucky, you might get a few ghosts in the deal too! If you're looking for a particular style of architecture, buying an older or even historic property is often the best way to get that as well.
Buying an existing property is almost always cheaper than buying new. You don't have the additional cost of buying the land, permits for building, etc. Plus, if it needs a little TLC, you might be able to get the house for a steal.
A lot of people buy older properties that need a little bit of elbow grease simply for the joy of restoring them to their former glory. Some people even make a living flipping houses, or buying them cheap, restoring them, and then selling them for a profit.
Sounds like a win-win-win situation, right? You can get an amazing house for a fraction of the cost, and maybe even make a bit of money with it in the future as well. What could go wrong?
I'm not trying to scare you off from buying an old home.
Okay, maybe I am, but in this case, it's something that you should be scared about. Here is a list of the most common dangers you could encounter when buying an old home.
Look at your nearest electrical socket. Does it have two holes or three? In most homes built since the 1970s, you'll find the 3-slot grounded sockets, but in older homes, you may only find 2 slot ungrounded sockets. If you have a plug that requires that grounding tab, you may be out of luck. Additionally, things like laptops that have rechargeable batteries can be damaged from being charged in an improperly grounded socket. Fixing this often requires some extensive professional electrical work.
While it worked well as fire retardant, asbestos can cause a variety of health problems, up to and including cancer, so in 1989, the EPA finally banned the use of asbestos as a building material. While many older houses have already had their asbestos removed, some still exist that haven't received such treatment, so you may end up with an asbestos-riddled mess on your hands.
Any home built before 1978 could potentially have lead paint on its walls. While this isn't generally a problem as long as you're not nibbling on paint chips, it could be dangerous for families with small children. Even if the house has been painted with non-toxic paint, the lead paint is still there beneath the fresh coats of semi-gloss color. Buying an old home will often require you to sign a paper stating you know the house could possibly have lead paint.
Older homes are generally seen as pretty stable, but that doesn't mean that your foundation isn't cracked, sinking or in some other form of trouble. Repairing a foundation problem can cost quite a bit — between $500-1500 each for steel or concrete reinforcement, or more than $40,000 for a whole new foundation.
The whole point of buying a new home is to get a roof over your head, so it kind of defeats the purpose if the roof leaks, crumbles or falls in completely. Previous owners may have also opted to have the shingles layered rather than replacing the entire roof. This works and saves quite a bit of money — once. Any more than two layers, and you risk damaging the home or purchasing a house that homeowners insurance companies won't touch with a 10-foot pole.
Speaking of the expensive elephant in the room, homeowners insurance can be a big problem for people purchasing older homes. Many companies won't insure against things like electrical fires caused by old wires or water damage caused by old and leaky pipes. You might find yourself spending more money on repairs than you spent on the house just to make it insurable.
Nothing is tastier to a termite than an old wood-frame home made from untreated lumber. You might not even know there's a problem until you settle into your bed one night and the floor beneath your feet collapses. You can look for signs of termite or other insect infestation yourself, but it will definitely pay to have a professional come in and look too.
Older homes come with elegant architecture and beautiful lines. They also tend to come with single-pane windows and no insulation, meaning your heating and cooling bills will be through the roof. Just adding insulation to your walls and attic can drop your energy bill dramatically, and the cost of the insulation will pay for itself in no time.
There are probably a few more possible dangers we've left out, but this gives you a pretty good idea of what you could be facing when signing on the dotted line for your new home.
Even with all the potential problems you could face, it can still be one of the most amazing and rewarding things you've ever done in your life. There are so many benefits of buying an older home, not the least of which is the fact that you can significantly reduce your carbon footprint by doing so. There are just a few things you should remember before you sign your life away:
As long as you have a good head on your shoulders and the support of inspectors, contractors, or other professionals, then there are thousands of houses just waiting for you to breathe a bit of new life into them. Don't let potential problems scare you off from buying an old home. Instead, have a plan to fix them, and spend the rest of your time enjoying your new home.

If you're looking to start the weekend early, you're in luck: Cinco de Mayo falls on a Thursday this year! And don't worry, it's not too late to throw a fiesta on the fly. We laid out everything you need to host an Instagram-worthy bash in just a few hours, from the flavorful eats to the colorful decor. All you need to do is tell your friends to hurry over — this is one party they won't want to miss.
Whip Up a Batch of Nacho Cheese Dip
Let appetizers take center stage, starting with some can't-put-it-down homemade nacho cheese dip. Prep about an hour or so before your party and serve fresh with some tortilla chips.
Add in a Bowl of Guacamole
Of course, it wouldn't be a Cinco de Mayo party if you didn't whip up some homemade guac. The best part? This recipe only requires a few simple ingredients, many of which you may already have stocked in your fridge.
Kathryn Walsh
Have Lots of Salsa on Hand
To complete your array of dips, serve this delicious green salsa. Made of tomatillos and chiles, this dish can be made as caliente or as mild as you prefer.
Kristan Raines
Throw Together a Taco Casserole
Rather than having to individually prep all the ingredients it takes to make a successful taco bar, try making this taco casserole instead. It will keep you on theme (and on time).
Charity Curley Mathews
Make Albondigas Soup to Round Out the Feast
If you're still concerned about not having enough grub to go around, go one step further and serve this authentic albondigas soup. Spicy meatballs, green beans and summer squash come together to create an unexpected yet hearty way to celebrate the holiday.
April Anderson
Pour Some Margaritas for the Crowd, Obviously
This party calls for cocktails, and you want guests to have their fill of the good stuff. If you're not a bartender-in-the-making, it's no problem. This guide shows you how to combine liqueur, lime and tequila in such an authentic way that even the most seasoned margarita drinker will be satisfied.
Jennifer Farley
Go All Out with Hand-Painted Margarita Glasses
If you have a few hours to prep for your party, then do a little something that goes a long way: make and give away hand-painted margarita glasses for those tasty drinks. It's a relatively inexpensive and surprisingly fast project, but when guests go home with a little memento at the end of the night, it can make any last-minute Cinco de Mayo party feel extra special.
Jonathan Fong
Adorn Tables With Paper Flower Arrangements
Once the food and drinks are squared away, it's time to decorate. Create these bright paper tissue flower arrangements using leftover Mexican beer bottles (or everyday beer bottles work well, too, if you're really pressed for time). Arrange them on the dining table for a festive focal point.
Jonathan Fong
Hang Cutout Flags for the Grand Finale
Finally, welcome guests with cutout flags at your front door and over the dining table to not only designate the "party zone," but to round-out a perfectly, seemingly well-thought-out Cinco de Mayo party. Bonus: Once the party wraps up, it's never been easier to toss the decor and enjoy a nice long siesta. You deserve it!

Before you hire a PPC company or consultant, you should be comfortable and have a general sense of what you want from paid search. Choosing any type of online marketing for your company means that you are making an investment, so do you research ahead of time. Here are a few factors that you'll want to look into before choosing someone to handle your pay per click campaigns:
Experience – How long have you been handling paid search campaigns? What type of customers or industries are you familiar with? Are you an Adwords qualified company? These are all important questions to think about. Every industry is different and for many small businesses, the sectors can be competitive. When it comes down to keeping on budget for a price per click on a daily basis, experience counts.
Costs and Budget – Someone who is inexperienced in handling different types of paid search budgets can easily make a mistake. These oversights can add up really quickly and get expensive real fast. That's why it's helpful to have a company who is dedicated to monitoring your PPC account throughout the day and ensure that you won't go over budget. You might have a set amount that you're willing to go over budget if you're getting good, relevant clicks/calls. These are all crucial things to discuss with your PPC manager.
Keyword Research – Choosing the right keywords is SO important in PPC campaigns. You can't just throw around broad and general terms that you might incorporate into your organic campaign. If your keywords aren't relevant and your ads get a lot of impressions but few clicks, this can decrease your overall quality score. Make sure to ask your PPC manager about optimization and testing for different pay per click landing pages to see which ones works best.
Communication – Don't be afraid to ask your PPC company about their track record and what can they do to improve your campaigns. Find out if they attend any events or webinars to keep up with the changing industry. Most of all, make sure that they are ready and willing to answer any questions and comments that you have regarding your account. Search budgets can change with a moment's notice and it's important to have a company who is on your side.

Vermont Senator Patrick Leahy plans to introduce new legislation that will reverse a 2011 decision by the Supreme Court that protects generic drug manufacturers from some tort laws. Three years ago a woman sued a brand drug manufacturer for failing to warn, while last year a woman who was hurt by the generic version of the same drug, and harmed in nearly the same way, was unable to sue for failure to warn simply because the drug was a generic. The Supreme Court found that because generic manufacturers are required by federal law to use the same label as the brand name equivalent, they are protected from tort law, even if they know the label fails to warn.
According to Senator Leahy, "The Mensing decision creates a troubling inconsistency in the law with respect to prescription drugs. If a consumer takes the brand-name version of drug, she can sue the manufacturer for inadequate warnings. If the pharmacy happens to give her the generic version, she will not be compensated for her injuries. The result is a two-track system that penalizes consumers of generic drugs—even though many consumers have no control over which drug they take, because state law and their health insurance plan require them to take generics if they are available. I will introduce legislation to address this contradiction so that consumers are fully protected from harm and receive adequate warnings."
Leahy wants new legislation that allows generic drug makers to improve warning and label information for their drugs, just as brand name drug manufacturers can.

THE word 'factional' is being thrown about with abandon within and outside the African National Congress (ANC). It has become a stick with which we beat each other, but also a conveniently kicked up dust cloud behind which scoundrels hide.
In the aftermath of the ill-fated motion of no-confidence in President Jacob Zuma and the ANC
government last Tuesday, allegations of factionalism are now flying around thick and fast. Those in the ANC who have abided by the instruction to vote against the motion of the opposition parties and consider party discipline as sacrosanct accuse those who have broken ranks as being factional, while the betrayers are accusing their detractors who are calling for them to be exposed also as factional, and in an utterly self-serving manner claim that attempts to establish who they are will tear the ANC apart.
They conveniently fail to see how their undisciplined behaviour is brewing the poisonous acid of distrust and anger that is now eating away at the core of the ANC. The lack of a clear understanding
of what factionalism actually means is convenient for those who try to hide behind it, but it is abusive of ordinary rank and file members of the ANC and the general public who are being called upon to take a stance against this evil of 'factionalism', while it is not being defined.
So let me, without further abandon, describe what being factional means: the best way to do so is to first state what it not is. It does not mean that one is factional when you have a difference of opinion with another person or group in the organisation/party that all of you belong to.
Differences of opinion and vigorous debate about those different points of view can actually be very healthy and if handled in a disciplined and mature manner can strengthen a party or organisation
and broaden its reach into society.
Intolerance of another member's point of view within an organisation is not de facto factional in itself, but it is dangerous and can lead to factionalism. By the same token is dogmatism dangerous and can potentially lead to factional behaviour. These tendencies have from time to-time rose their ugly heads within the ANC, and the majority of ANC members with the help of balanced and mature leadership of its various National Executive Committees (NEC's), have rejected them in favour of understanding that the ANC is a broad church within which a diversity of ideas can be accommodated, and that there can be unity in diversity.
That Comrade OR managed to keep the ANC united during the very difficult years of exile. It was no mean feat. Many lesser organisations have been destroyed by the frustrations and concomitant factionalism that can thrive during years of exile.
Having ones membership and leadership separated in prisons and spread out over many countries, while you battle with a lack of resources and political parties within the countries where you are in exile trying to use you for their own domestic or international purposes, is not easy at all.
I believe that the answer lies in the unique balance of tolerance and discipline that Comrade
OR's leadership bestowed on us. Almost no idea was off bounds for discussion, as long as it was done within the organisational structures of the ANC. These organisational structures are defined by the Constitution of the ANC, which every member pledge loyalty to in the Declaration that all of us have to sign when we join.
While we tolerate diversity of ideas our discussions never take place in a vacuum. There always
comes a point when debates have to lead to decisions being taken, and as with any democratic organisation the view of the majority should then prevail. The ANC prefers not to rush into voting, but whenever possible to take consensus decisions. Even when there is a clear majority for a
particular point of view we prefer that debate continues up to the point where the majority manages
to convince the minority, or where a compromise is reached integrating some of the views of the minority into the final decision.
However, the reality is that the views of the majority logically will be the dominant influence/factor in the final decision. There is nothing domineering about that – it is the guiding principle and logic of democracy. The critical question that arises is how the minority should conduct themselves once a decision is taken – either through consensus or in the rare instances when it becomes necessary through voting.
The culture of the ANC is that of central democracy, and once a decision is finally taken the minority has to accept it, execute the decision and in public defend the decision as their own – even though they may have preferred a different decision. This is what organisational discipline requires within an organisation that subscribes to central democracy.
A good example of how this works was presented to us by comrade Chris Hani when the NEC took the decision to suspend the armed struggle.
Comrade Chris was not in favour of that decision, but once he realised that the majority of members in the NEC were in favour of the decision he accepted it, and in public and towards the MK soldiers he defended and promoted the decision as if it was actually his own decision.
He played a critical role to convince the Umkhonto we Sizwe soldiers as their Chief of Staff to
accept the decision, although it was a bitter pill to swallow (the video clip in which he explains how he handled the situation can be watched here: https://youtu.be/_MMG_bUdnKY).
The problem with factional behaviour arises when ANC members deviate from these tried and tested principles of central democracy, and they are not prepared to accept the majority decision and continue to agitate for and promote their minority position although they have lost out to the majority.
When they do so within the organisation and continue to agitate and stir division such behaviour can already be very divisive, but it is much worse when they not only do so within the organisation but also take their agitation openly into the public domain outside the constitutional organisational structures. Such behaviour undermines the defences of an organisation, and makes it vulnerable to attacks from its detractors and enemies from outside.
This kind of factional behaviour has been becoming increasingly prevalent over the past couple of
years in the ANC. Initially the unpreparedness of minorities whose views did not prevail in the ANC to accept majority positions seems to remain contained within the ANC, and problematic as it already was, there was still a chance of managing it within our organisational structures.
However, in more recent times these rebellious minorities have seen it fit to make common cause with all kinds of forces outside the ANC that are consolidating a broad front of opposition to the ANC. These included the likes of so-called civil society organisations, the official opposition parties in parliament and most dominantly the big White Monopoly Capital institutions that fund all these various opposition groups.
A minority within the ANC increasingly makes common cause with these groupings and it has
now reached a point where they are apparently more loyal to them than to the organisational structures of the ANC. In having done so, they have developed into a hardened faction inside the ANC that no longer consider themselves to be under the discipline of the ANC. The increasing arrogance and indiscipline of this faction can be traced back over a couple of years where they have constantly pushed the boundaries of their indiscipline, and the unpreparedness or inability of the organisational structures of the ANC to control them and put them on notice for their behaviour, emboldened them.
This finally culminated in their appallingly treacherous behaviour when they, in direct defiance of
the instructions of the NEC of the ANC and the ANC Caucus in the National Assembly, voted in favour of the no-confidence motion of the opposition parties against the President. Like habitual criminals, these deviant ANC members have become habitual factionalists, and as with habitual criminals, the chances of rehabilitation are very slim.
Even more so because their factional behaviour is grounded in how they have advanced materially so well during the past 23 years of having collaborated with the White Monopoly Capitalists, that they no longer want to pursue the Second Phase of the National Democratic Revolution (NDR).
The foundation of their factional defiance is that they have a vested interest in maintaining the neoliberal pro-white monopoly capital status quo, and they are prepared to make common cause with their White Monopoly Capitalist sponsors and handlers in order to divide – and if need be – destroy the ANC in order to achieve their objective.
They are the enemy within, and their undisciplined factional behaviour is deliberate and purposeful. This is confirmed by their behaviour since they have committed their defiant act of
treason against the ANC last Tuesday. Instead of having shown any contrition some of them seem
to have become even bolder in their defiance.
As if Derek Hanekom was not already undisciplined and defiant enough with his constant stream of
tweets attacking the President and ANC policy positions, since Tuesday he now seems to dedicate all the free time that he has, since the President thankfully removed him from his cabinet, to attacks on the President and defending those ANC MP's who voted in favour of the no-confidence
motion in the President.
Ganging up with him are Pravin Gordhan and the ever attention seeking Makhosi Khoza. They seem to try and outdo one another in their defiance of the ANC. What makes Hanekom's
behaviour particularly appalling is that he is the Chairperson of the Disciplinary Committee (DC) of the NEC. As long as he remains in that position, disciplinary action against the errand MP's will have to be handled by him as chairperson of the DC.
He even tried to argue that those who voted in favour of the no-confidence motion were paragons of morality, and that they acted in line with the Constitution. This is clearly open defiance, and an
entirely untenable situation. There can be no other option left to the NEC, but to relieve him forthwith from his position as chairperson of the DC and to bring disciplinary charges against him for factionalism.
He has to be charged for having violated Rule 18.104.22.168 of the ANC Constitution for acting in collaboration with counterrevolutionary forces, as well as in collaboration with "a political
organisation or party other than an organisation or party in alliance with the ANC in a manner contrary to the aims, policies and objectives of the ANC". All the other MP's who have openly declared that they have voted in favour of the no-confidence motion should similarly be charged,
and with immediate effect be re-called from parliament.
Their ANC membership should be suspended pending the outcome of the disciplinary charges brought against them, and such suspension must obviously mean that they will not be allowed to act in any capacity whatsoever on behalf of the ANC. Those other ANC MP's who voted in favour of the no-confidence motion, but who do not have the courage of their convictions to say so should be exposed, and when they are finally exposed exactly the same disciplinary action should be taken
against them. Enough is enough!
Last Tuesday was a watershed event. Those who have betrayed the ANC on Tuesday – as a bare minimum – have to declare what they have done, they have to apologise unconditionally and
accept the organisational discipline that inevitably comes with such deviant factional behaviour.
That is the only way they can have any hope to stay members of the ANC. They must understand that if they want to settle for anything less, they will define themselves out of the ANC.
We have a revolution to fight; the Second Phase of the National Democratic Revolution cannot be
postponed any longer. We cannot allow ourselves to be distracted. Like with all hard-core
factionalists, the day of reckoning has arrived, and now their options have narrow down to only two
possibilities: They must either ship in, or ship out!

Representing a new style of urban driving, the futuristic Twizy is an ultra-compact car unlike anything else on the market. This electric vehicle is small yet strong, stylish yet practical, and it's fun and efficient to drive.
Exterior design
This ultra-modern city car has a lightweight steel frame, which is robust and nimble. It's sure to catch the eye of passers-by, too. Four small wheels and a highly-engineered chassis offer a twist on the main features of a conventional car. The entry-level Urban trim comes in classic black, grey or white. Upgrade to Colour to add coloured decals. The top-of-the-range Technic model adds sleek metallic paint, sharp alloy wheels and a carbon-look roof.
Interior design
The intelligent seating configuration on board the new Twizy places the passenger behind the driver. There's a deceptive amount of space in the compact cabin – you won't believe the amount of head and legroom. Technic comes with additional storage compartments to really maximise space. As standard, the models come without doors – clever scissor doors are available as an option. Supportive and hard-wearing seats are rain-resistant to ensure you remain comfortable in all weather. A full-length windscreen affords amazing visibility from the driver's seat.
This new Renault Twizy offers a whole new in-town driving experience. Clean driving is another main attraction of the new Renault Twizy, thanks to an impressive electric motor offering zero carbon emissions from a lithium ion battery. Responsive acceleration is just what you need on the city streets, coupled with brilliant manoeuvrability for zipping around corners. Impressively, it can hit 40mph in 8.1 seconds, on its way to a top speed of 50mph. The potential 50-mile range is more than enough for short journeys. It takes between three and four hours to fully charge using your home power point – that means you don't have to hang around too long while you wait for it to charge.
Technology and safety
Safety features include an airbag for the driver, a built-in rear headrest, and an adjustable front seat with built-in headrest. The front-lateral wind deflector is another smart design feature, along with a lockable steering column for enhanced security. The basic Urban trim boasts a neat trip computer displaying an eco score, which measures your driving efficiency. Personalise your new Twizy with an available Bluetooth hands-free kit, which enables multimedia options and full audio functions like streaming. Your music plays through speakers dotted around the cabin.

There's a really good reason young men used to be forced to marry their pregnant girlfriends, and it has nothing to do with preserving their good name.
Picture this: you're a pretty young thing, fooling around with your manly man. In the weeks that follow you realise you're pregnant. Uh oh. Mr Perfect is long gone, moved on to wherever gorgeous, unreliable young men move on to.
You tell your parents. They vow to speak to Mr Perfect's family and make him 'put a ring on it'. You tell them you don't want to marry Mr Perfect, that he's not 'right' for you and you want to raise this baby alone. They're so shocked they kick you out of home.
You rock up to your local social security office, fill out 50 billion forms, get your single parent pension, and a few other miscellaneous benefits. Struggle through (just) until your child is old enough that you can pop them in daycare, get a job, claim the child care rebates so that the daycare is affordable (sort of) and if you're lucky you'll wind up making ends meet. With a little help from your friends.
Oh, hang on, we forgot to check the calendar.
What's that you say, it's before 1973? Oh, bad luck. You get nothing. Yup, that's right. Na da, zip, a big fat zero. Out on the streets with a baby, no money and no family support.
Bet you wish your parents had frog-marched Mr-Not-So-Perfect down to the Registry Office now, dontcha?
Before the introduction of the Supporting Mother's Benefit in 1973, single mothers only got a pension if they had been deserted, divorced or if their husband was in a prison or mental hospital.
The common theme here? They were all married at some point.
Before 1942 you were screwed even if you had been married. There was no help from the government – if your husband died you'd better remarry pretty quick smart or hope your family or your husband's family were feeling wealthy and generous enough to take you (and the kids) in.
But that's back when my grandma was a baby… who can remember that far back? Pfft.
As Bettina Cass of the University of Sydney pointed out:
the increase in sole parent family formation in Australia, as in other similar Western industrial countries, is a reflection of significant social and legal changes occurring in the institution of marriage and in family law enabling legal release from unsatisfactory marriages. These changes are a reflection of women's increasingly strong aspirations to improve their social and economic status and to construct an independent identity (1992).
Translation into plain English? Women are choosing to leave bad relationships, even if they have kids, because our laws and social support make it possible.
Daycare has changed as well in the past few decades. Which helps if you want to actually work so you can support your kids without a man on the scene.
My Mum managed to go back to work as a teacher in the late 1980s after about 10 years out of the workforce to have three kids.
Flexible part time work? Ha ha. Quality formal childcare? Forget it.
I was at school by then but my sister, at 3 years old, stayed with other mums who either hadn't returned to work or weren't working on that particular day. They paid each other cash to feed the kids for the day. Mum talks about $20 notes doing the rounds from one house to another depending on which mother was working that day and which mother was minding everyone else's kids.
I tell this story not to illustrate life as a single mother – these were all married mothers – but because even 20 years ago, there was no good formal childcare widely available, even in suburban Melbourne (affordable or otherwise).
So if you were a single parent? Good luck getting work (which would probably have to be full time) and getting childcare (which was unregulated and unreliable).
So, ladies, don't take anything for granted. It's not set in stone. Keep complaining about the unavailability of affordable quality childcare. Shout out from the rooftops how much it costs to raise kids, how important they are and why we should all help each other to give them a great start in life.
The alternative? Go home and be REALLY NICE to your husband. And if you don't have one, go and get one really quickly and start learning how to cook tasty dinners and starch shirt collars.

There is no reasonable expectation of privacy with a credit card.
There is no reasonable expectation of privacy with a credit card. In United States v Bah, 794 F3d 617 (6th Cir. 2015) the court upheld the validity of a prolonged traffic stop for the reason that the police had an individualized suspicion to extend the stop because during the time the passenger was searching the car's glove box the police saw multiple credit, debit and gift cards. The court stated that "the storage capacity of the magnetic strip of a credit, debit or gift card pales in comparison to that of a computer hard drive, cell phone, or even audio cassette." Therefore, there was no reasonable expectation of privacy.
Technology can act to change existing law on a daily basis. It is extremely important that a criminal defense lawyer be aware of changes so that clients can be properly represented. Also, it is extremely important so that the criminal defense attorney can be prepared to defend against all possible arguments made by a skilled prosecutor in order to strengthen their position in order to get a conviction. The metaphor would be a sword fight – you want your person to be better prepared then the other so that your side wins. A criminal defense specialist makes it a point to be stronger and better prepared then the prosecution.
