At first, we thought [the power of the West] was because you had more powerful guns than we had. Then we thought it was because you had the best political system. Next we focused on your economic system. But in the past twenty years, we have realized that the heart of your culture is your religion: Christianity.
David Aikman, Jesus in Beijing
[In the] higher Christian churches... they saunter through the liturgy like Mohawks along a string of scaffolding who have long since forgotten their danger. If God were to blast such a service to bits, the congregation would be, I believe, genuinely shocked. But in the low churches you expect it every minute.

In England there were always two sharply opposed middle classes, the academic middle class and the commercial middle class.

I mean three systems in one: a predominantly market economy; a polity respectful of the rights of the individual to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; and a system of cultural institutions moved by ideals of liberty and justice for all.

Nico Hülkenberg has agreed a multi-year deal to return to Force India next season. The 26-year-old German will rejoin Force India after a year at Sauber, where he finished 10th in the drivers' standings.
"I am happy to come back to Sahara Force India," he said. "The team is aiming high for next year and I believe that the experience I have gained over the years will help us achieve those goals.
"I genuinely believe we can have a competitive package in 2014. I've heard a lot of positive things about the Mercedes engine as well, so I think there is a lot to be excited about for next year. I know this team and I can see their determination; it's a great bunch of people and we all share the same hunger for success."
The team principal and managing director Dr Vijay Mallya described Hülkenberg's arrival as a "statement of intent", with Formula One undergoing changes next season.
"I'm delighted to see Nico back with Sahara Force India," he said. "When he drove for us in 2012, it became clear Nico was an exceptional talent and he has continued to impress everyone in the paddock with his strong performances this season.
"Having Nico in our lineup is a real statement of intent and a huge boost for everyone associated with the team. We have high hopes and expectations for 2014 and by signing Nico we have put ourselves in the best position to achieve those objectives and enjoy what could be our most competitive season yet."
Hülkenberg's signature confirms one half of Force India's lineup for next season, with a decision on is to partner him yet to be made.
Scotland's Paul Di Resta and Adrian Sutil drove for the team last season and while they could yet be retained, Sergio Pérez has also been mooted as a possible replacement.
"From all the names that are out there I can work with anyone," Hülkenberg told Sky Sports News. "It doesn't really matter for me. I want a strong team-mate and one that is challenging me. I know there are a few names around but it is not my decision. I'm sure it won't be long before we know."

Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman Arrives In New York To Face Charges!
Saying they were bringing the world's most notorious drug lord to justice, U.S. prosecutors on Friday described Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman as the murderous architect of a three-decade-long web of violence, corruption and drug addiction and announced they were seeking a $14 billion forfeiture from him.
Extradited Thursday from Mexico, Guzman made an appearance in a New York City courtroom, where a federal public defender entered a not-guilty plea for him.

Rev. Marlin Lavanhar
Senior Minister
Marlin grew up as a Unitarian Universalist in Illinois. He majored in sociology at Tulane, and graduated from Harvard Divinity School. All Souls called him in 2000, making him, at age 32, the youngest senior minister of a major congregation in the denomination. Marlin began his ministerial career in the North Shore Unitarian Church in Deerfield, Illinois.
After receiving his bachelor's degree, he taught English and American Culture in Kyoto, Japan for two years. He followed that with a three year around-the-world bicycle trip, studying Buddhism in Asia, Hinduism in India, Jewish, Christian, and Muslim traditions in Israel, and cycling through much of Asia, the Middle East, Eastern Europe, and North America. Along the way he visited and wrote about Unitarian communities on the Negros Island in the Philippines, in the Khasi Hills of Northeast India, and in Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Czech Republic, Hungary, and Romania. The experience helped him recognize the Unitarian ministry as his calling and he enrolled at Harvard Divinity School when he returned to the United States.
At Harvard, he was selected to assist the Unitarian Universalist Association in interfaith and international relations, and was invited to present a message to the Triennial World Congress of the International Association for Religious Freedom in Korea.
After graduating, he served as Minister of Outreach at the historic First and Second Church in Boston. He became widely recognized within the denomination for his development of the "Soulful Sundown Service" program in Boston, which reaches out to young people. His success was demonstrated by the wide distribution of a manual he wrote on how to bring young people into church.
Since coming to All Souls, Marlin has overseen exponential growth in membership and attendance. In 2008, All Souls became the largest church in the Unitarian Universalist Association with almost 1,800 adult members.
He serves the wider Tulsa community as a member of the Downtown Clergy Association, a board member of the John Hope Franklin Museum for Reconciliation, and the Mayor's Police and Community Coalition.
He is married to Anitra Lavanhar and they have two children, Elias born in 2000 and Lyla born in 2008.

Freedom of the Press
You are here
Quick Facts
The administration of President Evo Morales exerts pressure on independent and critical media outlets. Regulatory processes for broadcast media are politicized. Public media outlets favor the government, and have expanded their reach in recent years. Public advertising contracts are disproportionately awarded to government-friendly outlets.
Key Developments
- In December 2015, the telecommunications regulatory authority announced that hundreds of broadcast outlets will see their licenses expire by 2019. To stay on the air, they will have to participate in a public licensing process expected to favor government-backed outlets.
- There were several reports in 2015 of politicized dismissals or resignations of prominent journalists, apparently as consequences for critical reporting.
- Two journalists in the province of Cochabamba were threatened after investigating police corruption.
Legal Environment: 15 / 30 (↓1)
Bolivia's 2009 constitution protects freedom of speech and of the press, but it also allows for some limitations. While Article 21 lays out an expansive right to communicate freely, Article 107 imposes a duty to communicate with "truth and responsibility." Article 107 also clears the way for content-based restrictions by stipulating that the media must contribute to the promotion of the ethical, moral, and civic values of the nation's multiple cultures. Defamation remains a criminal offense and can carry a jail term of between six months and two years. The constitution calls for an independent judiciary, but in practice the judiciary is overburdened, corrupt, and subject to constant pressures from the executive.
Bolivia has no law guaranteeing access to public information. A transparency bill was passed in 2013 but was never signed into law. One controversial provision would give police, military, and government authorities the power to declare information classified. Representatives of the National Press Association (ANP) have noted that the government hampers journalists' access to information.
The 2010 Law against Racism and All Forms of Discrimination attempts to address degrading portrayals of indigenous people in the media. The law grants authorities the power to fine or shut down news outlets and arrest journalists for published material that is deemed racist. Media organizations can face sanctions even if a remark is uttered by a source or interviewee who does not represent the media organization.
A 2011 telecommunications law established rules for the distribution of television and radio frequencies, the broadcasting of presidential messages, and wiretapping in certain extreme cases. The law allots 33 percent of frequencies to the government, 33 percent to the private sector, 17 percent to social and community-based groups, and 17 percent to "peasant and indigenous groups." Local journalist advocacy organizations continue to denounce the law, claiming that it restricts freedom of expression by giving too much control to the government.
The Authority for the Regulation of Telecommunications and Transportation (ATT) is responsible for allocating broadcast frequencies. Although ATT is supposed to operate autonomously, members of the opposition as well as independent analysts claim that the ATT is closely linked to the executive. Moreover, requirements to obtain a license are more complicated for commercial media outlets than they are for state and community outlets. In December 2015, César Borth, ATT's director, announced that more than 500 broadcast outlets will see their licenses expire by 2019. To stay on the air, they will have to participate in a public licensing process, which observers say is likely to favor government-backed social and community groups at the expense of private, independent outlets.
Political Environment: 21 / 40
Bolivia's media environment is politically polarized, with strong rivalries between pro- and antigovernment media outlets. The 2014 presidential election campaign saw increasing state control over editorial direction of the press and greater partisanship in the media. The Supreme Electoral Tribunal, which monitors elections, required any company or press outlet to register with the government and report methods and data before releasing poll results. Press groups argued that the measure was a form of unconstitutional prior censorship. State-run television gave unequal coverage to the opposition, for example by broadcasting a soccer match in place of a presidential debate that Morales did not join. Journalists engage in self-censorship, with many fearing that they could lose their jobs in connection with reporting critical of the government or of advertisers.
Both private and state-run media are subject to editorial pressure from the government. There were numerous reports in 2015 of politicized dismissals or resignations of prominent journalists, apparently as consequences for critical reporting. In May 2015, the daily news program of Enrique Salazar was unexpectedly canceled following his critical interview with the communications minister. And in July, Amalia Pando resigned her position hosting a popular morning radio show after 10 years, citing a desire to protect her employer from financial penalties from the government as a result of her reporting.
Journalists in Bolivia are subject to physical threats, though the number of incidents has decreased in recent years. In March 2015, two television reporters, José Miguel Manzaneda and Escarley Pacheco, found threatening notes at their homes after doing a story on police corruption in the province of Cochabamba. Last year, Pacheco was also threatened by the former commander of the Cochabamba police, Alberto Suárez, after reporting that Suárez had been accused by his ex-wife of domestic violence. Impunity remains the norm for violence and harassment of Bolivian journalists.
Economic Environment: 13 / 30 (↓1)
Newspaper readership is limited due to low literacy rates, and radio is the principal news medium, with community radio stations playing a major role. In addition to the state-owned television station, the government operates a news agency, a weekly newspaper, and community radio stations. A substantial proportion of Bolivia's television stations and newspapers are privately owned, but civil society groups have expressed concern over the significant expansion of state-run channels and the conversion of public media into vehicles for government influence. Internet penetration is limited but expanding, with nearly 45 percent of Bolivians accessing the medium in 2015.
Media ownership in Bolivia has become concentrated and it is not always easy to ascertain ownership. A 2015 report on media concentration by the Inter American Press Association claimed that the government controls, directly or indirectly, over 130 media outlets, the majority being community radio stations in rural areas. In 2014, independent Bolivian journalist Raúl Peñaranda published a book claiming that the government had built a network of pro-Morales media outlets that are owned by Morales sympathizers, and at which editorial policy is effectively determined by the office of the vice president. According to Peñaranda the television networks ATB, PAT, Full TV, and Abya Yala are among such outlets, as is the newspaper La Razon, which belongs to Carlos Gil, a Venezuelan businessman and close friend of Morales.
The Bolivian government continues to use the allocation of advertising as a tool to punish critical media. In August 2015, a study revealed that three television networks, ATB, PAT and BTV, were the beneficiaries of 55 percent of all the government advertising, despite representing only 10 percent of all viewership. In a 2015 interview published by an Argentinian newspaper, Morales himself confirmed that the government denies advertising contracts to certain media, especially those it considers to exhibit strong antigovernment bias.

Landscaping & Heavy Construction timbers
BBS Timbers Ltd. have been importing durable hardwoods from around the globe for heavy construction and infrastructure projects for the last 30 years.
Hardwoods such as Greenheart, Purpleheart, Jarrah, Kwila, Vitex, Wallaba and Iron Bark for bridge, wharf and railway construction.
In more recent times there has been an increasing demand for durable hardwoods for both domestic and commercial landscaping projects, as well as boardwalks around waterfronts and parks. New Zealand grown Saligna (eucalypt) is commonly used as seating on parks bench seats.
The South American hardwoods, Greenheart and Purpleheart have been more recently used in Auckland's Viaduct basin. Typical sizes used for these applications are, 150/200x50mm and 200/250x75mm; however, we stock Purpleheart & Greenheart in sizes up to 300x100mm.
For those projects that need larger sizes we can source the timber sections from our suppliers.

Counseling and Behavioral Therapy
Consider counseling or behavioral therapy if you feel that stress or emotions play a role in your eating habits. Obesity is often associated with unhelpful thought patterns related to your social image and frustration with attempts to lose weight. Often these thoughts can be a barrier to success. By working with a therapist, you can learn to understand:
- When you tend to overeat
- Why you tend to overeat
- How to combat overeating tendencies
Therapy may help improve adult short-term weight loss. Therapy can also be beneficial for children and teens who are obese. Children who are trying to lose weight may get the most benefit from group therapy that focuses on diet and behavior changes.
Counseling can also help you manage stress and cope with any negative feeling you may have.
Weight Loss Programs
Weight loss programs are available in a number of different formats. Some provide only group support. Others provide one-on-one counseling along with meal replacements. Programs are also available online, where you can join a chat room or add your comments to a message board. No matter which format, many people find that getting support is helpful.
Seek help or encouragement from your friends, family, and health care provider.
Consider joining a support group.

Airbnb is putting down permanent roots in Seattle with a major new office that makes the vacation rentals company the latest well-known tech brand to grow rapidly in the region after establishing an initial beachhead.
The company signed a six-year lease for two floors at the 8th + Olive building in downtown Seattle, totaling 40,000 square feet with room for approximately 300 people, Airbnb's Vice President of Engineering Mike Curtis tells GeekWire. The announcement comes less than a year after GeekWire reported on Airbnb's initial Seattle presence at the WeWork office in Westlake Tower.
The expansion in Seattle gives Airbnb greater ability to poach people from a large number of companies, including one of its competitors, Bellevue, Wash.-based travel giant Expedia Inc., which acquired HomeAway in 2015 and has been positioning the Austin, Texas-based company as more of a direct rival to Airbnb. Expedia is planning its own move to the downtown Seattle waterfront in the coming years.
As of now, Airbnb has about 50 people working out of WeWork in Seattle, and Curtis said the company plans to start building out the new space toward the end of the year. As Airbnb's Seattle office grows, the company wants to base entire projects out of the office.
"We are trying to find parts of the technology and products we are building that we can actually have live here, instead of just being extra people working on something that's primarily being driven in San Francisco," Curtis said. "We want to have it so that this office can be a true technology center, where we can have big parts of what we need to build actually being driven and run from Seattle."
That is already happening to a point. A couple examples of work being done in the Seattle office include the infrastructure behind the company's customer service operation as well as messaging between guests and hosts.
In order to grow the number of projects based in the Seattle office, Airbnb is ratcheting up hiring not just for engineers, but also for product, design, data science and many other roles in the Seattle office. Curtis said the depth of talent in the area makes it possible to build an office with a variety of disciplines.
Airbnb has expanded its ambitions greatly in the last year or so. The company's bread-and-butter is acting as a place for travelers to connect with hosts renting out a room, house or apartment. In November, Airbnb announced Trips, which allows travelers to book activities, take guided audio tours, get recommendations from locals and more using the Airbnb app. Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky said last year the company also plans to add flights, car rentals, and other services to the app, signaling the company's big ambitions to become a one-stop travel shop.
"Airbnb eventually wants to be able to offer the entire trip, not just the place that you stay," Curtis said.
On the backend, Airbnb is investing heavily in machine and deep learning capabilities to improve how it matches travelers with hosts.
"When you think about Airbnb, it's a two-sided marketplace, where every guest is completely unique and has unique and distinct needs for what they want to get out of a travel experience," Curtis said. "On other side, you have hosts, be they home hosts or experience hosts, who offer completely unique experiences. In the center of that, the huge amount of technology that we've built and everything that we work on, is how do you create a great match between that traveler and the host that is going to provide that great experience for them."
Airbnb is headquartered in San Francisco, and along with its Seattle office, it has engineering centers in Portland and Beijing. The Seattle office is led by Airbnb engineering manager Ari Steinberg, who oversaw Facebook's Seattle engineering office before launching a travel startup, Vamo, that was acquired by Airbnb in 2015. Ian McAllister, who founded and led the AmazonSmile charity program as part of his long tenure at the Seattle-based e-commerce giant, co-founded the Airbnb Seattle office but has since gone back to Amazon, where he is now director of international expansion for Alexa.
The 8th + Olive building has become a popular destination for several tech companies after an extensive renovation by owner Talon Private Capital. Legal advice startup Avvo is one of the largest tenants in the building, and last year GeekWire got a chance to check out its 110,000 square-foot offices that takes up seven floors

Bankruptcy and Eviction FAQs
When your financial life is in turmoil, the stress can impact your ability to manage making timely payments. When owners and renters fall behind on payments related to their housing, they face the possibility of losing their homes. While homeowners may have various exemptions they can file in order to protect their property, tenants have fewer options if they haven't been keeping up with their rent. Clients are often faced with eviction just as they are debating filing for bankruptcy. If you are a tenant in a precarious financial situation, a knowledgeable Los Angeles bankruptcy attorney can help you determine whether filing for bankruptcy will help.Can I Stay In My Property Longer By Filing For Bankruptcy?
The Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005 made it much easier for landlords to evict tenants. Usually, if you file for bankruptcy, an automatic stay goes into effect. It prevents creditors from contacting you, filing suit, or otherwise engaging in collection activities. Eviction is different. If your landlord has already obtained a judgment for possession of the rental property in California, filing for bankruptcy will not help.
However, if a judgment has not already been obtained and you have good reasons for filing for bankruptcy, filing may temporarily stay the eviction proceedings. The automatic stay goes into effect and the landlord cannot start eviction proceedings or give you a termination notice. However, the landlord can ask for relief from the automatic stay to continue with the eviction. Courts tend to grant these types of requests.What if I Have Damaged or Engaged in Illegal Activity on the Property?
If you have used the property for illegal activity or damaged it, your landlord can file a certification with the bankruptcy court attesting to these activities. He must serve you with the certification. If you do not object or deny the allegations within 15 days, your landlord can continue or start eviction proceedings even though the stay is still in place. If you do object, a bankruptcy judge will rule on the issue. As a practical matter, it is difficult to prove that you did not use the property for these purposes, but an experienced attorney can help you build a strong case.How Will Bankruptcy Impact My Lease?
Even if you aren't behind on rent, your lease can be affected by bankruptcy. If you have filed for Chapter 7, the trustee must decide within 60 days whether you may keep the lease in light of your financial situation. As a practical matter however, a Chapter 7 trustee will almost never look into a residential lease. The landlord is given the right to request proof that you will be able to make your rental payments on time. If you cannot prove this, the landlord can ask the bankruptcy court to terminate the lease and the eviction may proceed. Here too however, as long as you are current with your lease payments, the landlord will usually not take any further action. After all, why would a landlord give a hard time to a tenant that is paying his or her rent? Chapter 13, however, gives you the right to figure out whether you can afford your lease before your plan is confirmed. If you decide that your rent is too high, you have the right to move, just as you did before you filed your Chapter 13 case.Who Can I Call for Sound Legal Guidance?
Dealing with eviction on top of other serious financial difficulties can be overwhelming, but legal advice and representation can help. A trustworthy Los Angeles bankruptcy lawyer can file your bankruptcy petition and help you develop solid strategies for rebuilding your financial life. Contact Devin Sawdayi at 310-475-9399 or via our online form for help.

Each of these chiptune versions of classic Christmas songs uses game-specific sounds from many of your favorite NES titles. Doctor Octoroc exercises his creative juices by limiting himself solely to each games' specific soundtrack, and strays pretty far at times from the classic version of the Christmas songs we hate. "Carol of the Belmonts" is my favorite at the moment, but each of the interpretations are equally enjoyable. The 9 track demo version of this release is all over the internet, but this is the 18 track final version. Two consecutive 8-bit posts? Weird.

Bandcamp's community of artists, fans, and labels once again stood with the music community to enthusiastically voice a commitment to equal rights for all, and oppose the marginalization of the LGBT+ community when the online site donated their portion of all sales on Friday to the Transgender Law Center.
The retailer wrote Friday night, "With a few hours left to go (the party ends at midnight PST), we estimate that fans will have bought nearly $700,000 worth of music today. All of our share of that (~12%) goes directly to TLC. The remainder goes to the labels and artists, many of whom will be donating their share of sales as well. Artists and labels pledged their support so quickly that it was often difficult to keep up, but we'd like to extend a deep, heartfelt thanks to ANTI-, ATO, Merge, Kill Rock Stars, Sub Pop, Hyperdub, Polyvinyl, Car Seat Headrest, clipping., Frankie Cosmos, 12XU, Bella Union, Caribou, Deathwish, Exploding in Sound, Hardly Art, and the hundreds more who joined us. Your support and commitment is inspiring.
"We did hear from a few individuals who suggested that we "stay neutral" and "just sell music." To those people we say this: an attack against any marginalized community is an attack against all of us. We believe we have a moral obligation to oppose such attacks, and we will always happily embrace the amazing opportunity we have to rally others to do the same."

Eagle County commissioners will resume review of Tree Farm proposal in El Jebel
After a false start earlier this year, the review of the Tree Farm development proposal in the midvalley will get underway Tuesday.
The Eagle County commissioners have scheduled a site tour at 3:45 p.m. followed by a public hearing at the Eagle County office building in El Jebel at 5 p.m.
The review was tabled at the request of the applicant in February because of turnover in the county engineer's office, according to a representative of the development team. Since engineering is a big part of the review, the development team delayed the review until a new engineer was in place and able to review the project.
The application is being handled by a different Eagle County planner after changes in that department as well. The planning office said a big reason that review was tabled was to gather information from the Colorado Department of Transportation.
The Tree Farm is a proposal by landowner Ace Lane and his company, Woody Ventures LLC, on 43 acres across Highway 82 from Whole Foods Market. The Tree Farm planned-unit development proposes 340 residences and nearly 135,000 square feet of commercial space. About 22 acres would be active and passive open space.
In prior meetings, affordable-housing advocates have voiced support for the project, while a larger number of critics have contended a project that size will overwhelm the midvalley and reduce the quality of life.
The project would include 43 units of deed-restricted affordable housing. Buyers would face income and asset caps, and rents would be controlled. The affordable housing would be apartments constructed in the first phase of the project.
The maximum allowable residential net square footage would be about 380,000 square feet.
The 135,000 square feet of commercial square footage would include a 60,000-square-foot hotel. The largest, single-use retail area would be capped at 30,000 square feet to alleviate concerns about a "big box" store.
Further details about the plan can be found online at http://www.eaglecounty.us/Planning/Active_Land_Use_Applications/. A 70-page planning staff report was added to the file Monday afternoon. The staff is recommending approval of the project, with conditions.
This is the second step in the review process, called preliminary plan. If the commissioners approve the project at this stage, Lane will be able to proceed with the project after meeting technical requirements in final review.
Start a dialogue, stay on topic and be civil.
If you don't follow the rules, your comment may be deleted.


text: Bend and Lincoln City Blog 2013 October Bankruptcy FAQs (Part 2) Previous Post | Next Post Bankruptcy FAQs (Part 2) Posted By Andrews, Cramer & Ersoff || 4-Oct-2013 Continuing from Bankruptcy FAQs (Part 1), the following are some additional frequently asked questions regarding what to expect from the bankruptcy process. Will my credit be permanently damaged if I file for bankruptcy? Although filing for bankruptcy will appear as a negative mark on your credit report (and will, as a result, impact your credit score), the good news is that your bankruptcy will not stay on your credit report forever. In fact, within 7 to 10 years, your bankruptcy can be dropped from your credit report so that, in effect, it will look like it never happened. Additionally, it's important to point out that, even during the period that your credit report contains a bankruptcy on it, there are things you can do to help boost your credit score and, therefore, minimize the impact of the bankruptcy. For example, being diligent about paying down any remaining debt, not acquiring any new debt and not carrying a balance on your credit cards can significantly help to boost your credit score even if your credit report includes a bankruptcy. Will I lose my house if I file for bankruptcy? Whether you are able to retain your house after filing for bankruptcy will depend on: The amount of equity you have in your home Whether you file for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy Whether foreclosure proceedings have already been initiated against your home prior to your bankruptcy case. If you are concerned about keeping your home and are considering filing for bankruptcy, contact our trusted bankruptcy attorneys for more specific information regarding your circumstances and case. Can or should I still have credit cards after filing for bankruptcy? Whether it's a good idea for you to have credit cards after bankruptcy will depend on whether or not you think that: You will be able to responsibly maintain new lines of credit. You will be able to pay off the balance you charge each month. You have the money necessary to front for secured lines of credit (as these are typically the only types of credit card lines available to those who have just filed for bankruptcy). While having credit cards after bankruptcy can help borrowers improve their credit rating (as long as they are able to responsibly manage these cards), it can be a bad idea to obtain credit cards after filing for bankruptcy if it will ultimately mean that the borrower is just burying himself in debt again. Lincoln City Bankruptcy Attorneys Matters related to bankruptcy need to be handled with the utmost care to ensure that debtors' rights are properly protected and that their financial issues are resolved as favorably as possible.

Jackson Page European U18's Champion 2017
The Under 18 title 2017 has been won by Jackson Page of Wales, going one better than last year when he lost to countryman Tyler Rees.
In Semi Final 1, Amir Nardeia took the first frame from Ivan Kakovsky despite Ivan rolling in a 50 break. Ivan levelled with a comprehensive win in frame 2, including a 54 break and went 2-1 up in a close third frame. At the interval, some excellent play from both players had tied the score at 2-2. However, Amir returned from the break in fine form and had soon booked his place in the final 4 frames to 2.
Semi Final 2 started well for Aaron Hill, doing enough to keep Jackson at bay. Frame 2 was all Jackson though, leaving nothing for Aaron to get into the frame. Aaron took the third frame, but a 57 break by Jackson in the fourth tied the match at the interval. As with SF1, the break suited Jackson more than his opponent and a 68 in frame six wrapped up the match 4-2.
In the final, the first four frames were all nip and tuck and were shared equally. Amir cued up a fine 66 in frame 5 to edge ahead for the first time in the match. However, that was as good as it got for the man from Israel, as Jackson won the next three frames to keep the crown in Wales.

Global Automakers shared an industry perspective on the technology of automated and connected vehicles via testimony before the Ohio House Transportation & Public Safety Committee. Over the course of the next eight months the committee, under the leadership of Chairman Representative Doug Green, will be conducting informational hearings on this subject. Representative Green's goal is to educate policy makers in the Ohio General Assembly about: the potential benefits and challenges of the technology; how it may impact the state's economy, public safety, and infrastructure; and the current research, testing and industry activity in Ohio.
The Global Automakers' testimony highlights the important role Ohio has played in promoting the technology, as well as the roles for federal, state, and local governments in ensuring the safe deployment of automated and connected vehicle technology. A key component to ensuring the benefits of automation can be realized will be to ensure the policy environment promotes continued testing and deployment of automated vehicles. Automated vehicles will likely impact how Americans think about mobility and the movement of goods and services and it is important that the appropriate policies be in place at both the federal and state level. Establishing a balanced policy will help spur the development and deployment of automated vehicle technologies that will improve motor vehicle safety, enhance personal mobility, and bring new efficiencies to our transportation system.

Survey: Data breach costs surge
A new study by the Ponemon Institute finds a 31% increase in the costs associated with a data breach.
The costs associated with high-profile data breaches are skyrocketing, according to a survey of companies that recently experienced customer data loss.
Data breaches cost companies an average of $182 per compromised record, a 31% increase over 2005, according to the survey conducted by the Elk Rapids, Mich.-based Ponemon Institute.
Ponemon studied 31 companies that experienced a data breach. The total costs for each loss ranged from less than $1 million to more than $22 million, according to the 2006 findings.
Costs resulting from a data breach can include printing and postage of notification letters, hiring a law firm to address legal issues, offering credit monitoring subscriptions to customers, implementing a customer support hotline and contract call center, as well as customer defections.
IT had no direct costs other than to put subsequent preventa¬tive measures in place, the survey said. The costs were borne primarily by marketing to avoid customer turnover and customer support.
"IT costs tend to be made up front as a preventative measure, so the bulk of an organization's security needs and subsequent IT investment will, by necessity, already have been made," Larry Ponemon, founder and chairman of the Ponemon Institute, said in an email interview. "A breach may expose a flaw in implementation, or a hole that can be addressed through training, but not necessarily a need for new direct investments."
The study also uncovered a lack of appropriate planning for a data breach. IT executives or IT security officers were responsible for breach response in 53% of incidents, but one third of those surveyed said there was no single group responsible for a breach response.
"A number of recent studies we've conducted have revealed an appalling lack of accountability where data protection and response is concerned," Ponemon said. "We believe assigning responsibility for security and response is an essential element to effective data protection."
In addition, more data may be at risk, as more companies contract with external partners, consultants, outsourcers or contractors. The survey found that almost 30% of all reported breaches originated with outside sources, such as contractors.
"It's difficult to compare right now as we've only been doing this analysis for two years, but it's safe to say that the more data travels, and the more people that have access to data, the more risk there is for exposure," Ponemon said. "It's not enough to assume a partner is doing the right thing. Companies have a responsibility to conduct due diligence with their partners and confirm they meet strict operational standards."
According to the study, regulations in more than half of all U.S. states require that customers be notified if their confidential or personal data has been lost, stolen, or compromised. The only "safe harbor" exception exempting organizations from the notification requirement is for data held in an encrypted form when lost.
The goal for many companies is to put data detection and encryption software in place to align information protection with corporate security policies and regulatory mandates, according to the study. Security best practices can be automatically enforced without relying on individuals to do so and without altering the network environment or email user behavior.
Companies should focus on preventing a breach and have a plan in place to reduce the cost of exposure if a breach takes place, as well as knowing what customers to notify so customers aren't over notified, said Steve Roop, vice president of products at San Francisco, Calif.-based Vontu Inc. Vontu cosponsored the report with Palo Alto, Calif.-based PGP Corp.
"It's all about risk mitigation and risk reduction," Roop said. "Technologies need to make end users more aware of security best practices, because employees need to know what the security policies of an organization are and if they are mishandling data."

Cream (pharmaceutical)
A cream is a topical preparation usually for application to the skin. Creams for application to mucus membranes such as those of the rectum or vagina are also used. Creams may be considered pharmaceutical products as even cosmetic creams are based on techniques developed by pharmacy and unmedicated creams are highly used in a variety of skin conditions (dermatoses).
Creams are semi-solid emulsions, that is mixtures of oil and water. They are divided into two types: oil-in-water (O/W) creams which are composed of small droplets of oil dispersed in a continuous aqueous phase, and water-in-oil (W/O) creams which are composed of small droplets of water dispersed in a continuous oily phase. Oil-in-water creams are more comfortable and cosmetically acceptable as they are less greasy and more easily washed off using water. Water-in-oil creams are more difficult to handle but many drugs which are incorporated into creams are hydrophobic and will be released more readily from a water-in-oil cream than an oil-in-water cream. Water-in-oil creams are also more moisturising as they provide an oily barrier which reduces water loss from the stratum corneum, the outmost layer of the skin.
Uses of creams
- The provision of a barrier to protect the skin
- This may be a physical barrier or a chemical barrier as with sunscreens
- To aid in the retention of moisture (especially water-in-oil creams)
- Cleansing
- Emollient effects
- As a vehicle for drug substances such as local anaesthetics, anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs or corticosteroids), hormones, antibiotics, antifungals or counter-irritants.
Creams are semisolid dosage forms containing one or more drug substances dissolved or dispersed in a suitable base. This term has traditionally been applied to semisolids that possess a relatively fluid consistency formulated as either water-in-oil (e.g., Cold Cream) or oil-in-water (e.g., Fluocinolone Acetonide Cream) emulsions. However, more recently the term has been restricted to products consisting of oil-in-water emulsions or aqueous microcrystalline dispersions of long-chain fatty acids or alcohols that are water washable and more cosmetically and aesthetically acceptable. Creams can be used for administering drugs via the vaginal route (e.g., Triple Sulfa Vaginal Cream).
Topical medication forms
(Source: [1])
- Cream - Emulsion of oil and water in approximately equal proportions. Penetrates stratum corneum outer layer of skin well.
- Ointment - Combines oil (80%) and water (20%). Effective barrier against moisture loss.
- Gel - Liquefies upon contact with the skin.
- Paste - Combines three agents - oil, water, and powder; an ointment in which a powder is suspended.
- Powder
- Liniment

* Co-management with JADA Management
Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano are not your usual house duo. With a long-standing background in house music, they have the knowledge of the genre and its roots at their core, and this foundation informs their eclectic sounds. Blending elements of house, tribal, techno, electro, Latin flavours and more into their productions and DJ sets, theirs is a sound which looks both to the past and to the future with plenty of groove at its heart.
Cutting their teeth on the Dutch scene, they rose to became one of the country's most dependable and in-demand house music DJs, amassing a huge fanbase which would serve us a vital springboard for their now-burgeoning international career. The two have been friends for life, Sunnery with a more outgoing demeanour and Ryan the more reserved one. It's adynamic which works in perfect harmony and has ensured their long and successful working relationship.
Their first releases dropped back in 2009 on Chuckie's Dirty Dutch Music imprint and SneakerzMuzik, with Steve Angello and Laidback Luke picking up tracks for Size Records and Mixmash Records respectively a couple of years later. Their trajectory was clear, as their overseasbookings started to ramp up in tandem and Spinnin' Records brought them into their rosterin 2011. Regular releases on the mega-label followed, as did productions for DOORN Recordsand Tiësto's Musical Freedom and a collaboration with Nicky Romero on "Sound Of The Underground", all meeting huge acclaim.
They have built up their Sexy By Nature brand in hugely impressive fashion, with a weekly radio show broadcast around the world and on their SoundCloud channel and a growing list of stellar parties in destinations from Los Angeles to New York, Miami, Ibiza, Asia and of course Amsterdam. What's more, in 2017 they launched their very own label, SONO MUSIC, which promises to deliver tonnes of exciting music from their own studio as well their friends.
The duo are embarking on a serious purple patch right now, with 10-15 hot tracks ready and waiting in the cannon to be released. Their long-awaited return to Armada will kick off this run of releases, with some of their most exciting music to date to be revealed. Juggling their hectic work schedule with their family duties, they are two seriously busy guys who never have a dull moment.
Regularly rocking all the world's biggest festivals and clubs like Tomorrowland, Ultra MusicFestival, Electric Daisy Carnaval, Creamfields, Create Los Angeles, LIV Miami, Marquee New York, Zouk Singapore and Ushuaia Ibiza they continue to be one of the most sought-after acts in the game with a packed-out diary. Watch these two take it to the next level over the next couple of years with their onslaught of new music and plans for world domination.

soon and fast," said Stephanie Tunmore, Greenpeace International
Climate and Energy Campaigner. "What this report shows is that we
are simply running out of time."
In a late night manoeuvre, after nearly 22 hours of negotiations
Saudi Arabia, China and Russia gutted a key figure in the IPCC
report on impacts, removing a graph of the warming effects of
fossil fuel emissions from a key summary table. The move was
described in an emotional statement to the Plenary by a senior
climate scientist as an "act of scientific vandalism". Without the
warming graph the table of impacts lacks a context to show when the
projected impacts would occur.
In another development China and Saudi Arabia forced the
weakening of a key finding on the effects of recent warming on
natural systems.
The original finding was that:
Based on
observational evidence from all continents and most oceans, there
is [very] high confidence that many natural systems, are being
affected by regional climate changes, particularly temperature
China and Saudi Arabia insisted in the removal of "very"
although the confidence in the findings was more than 99.9
percent. The watered down conclusion was adopted over the top of
fundamental scientific objections by the scientists who authored
the IPCC report.
We believe that this was unprecedented in the history of the
IPCC since 1988, and was an ugly and damaging development. To our
knowledge there have been no similar acts in the history of the
Greenpeace is calling for global emissions to peak by 2020 and
fall rapidly thereafter ensuring at least a 50 percent reduction
globally from 1990 levels by the year 2050, and eliminate fossil
fuel emissions before the end of the 21st century.
"We still have options," said Tunmore. "There is still time for
an energy revolution that will dramatically transform our energy
system and create a carbon free economy, reducing greenhouse gas
emissions to a level that keeps the global average temperature
increase well below 2 degrees C, avoiding the most catastrophic
"The one option that is clearly no longer open to us after this
report is to continue to sit on our hands and do nothing."

After completing a 2014 P&L this is what became apparent:
1,000 BPOs completed
$30,0000 expenses to complete BPOs including a part time assistant.
That means, just to be in business to complete BPOs we need to budget $30 per BPO.
Therefore at $50 per BPO, on average -
we net $20 per BPO before social security taxes and health insurance.
Anyone who completes BPOs for $35 or $40 cannot possibly be making a profit.Continue

The design of the U-Series 5-axis mill facilitates more undercut capability.
We lead the industry with technology that makes 5-axis make sense.
We are completely committed to 5-axis machining technology. Nobody makes it easier.
Shops across the nation are adopting 5-axis for 5-sided machining at a rapid rate.
Spindle chiller, CTS, and probing increase productivity.
At Hurco, we are immersed in 5-axis technology. We have carved out a niche in this arena because we made a commitment five years ago to focus on 5-axis. We determined this type of machining center, combined with the capabilities of our control, would make our customers more profitable. Similar to the transition from manual mills to CNC mills, we believe the time is right for shops across the country to increase profit margin by investing in 5-axis.Because we listened to our customers' reservations about switching from a 3-axis process to 5-axis, we assembled a 5-axis applications team with a dedicated phone number and email to help. If you do NOT OWN a 5-axis machining center, the most important message you need to know: 5-sided machining on a 5-axis machining center will increase the profit margin of the parts you are producing on your 3-axis machining centers.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Foxnoble from Total time & energy saver I purchased this just before Christmas & have been using ever since. I truly love this pressure cooker, I'm giving it 4 stars because it would be nice to have more information on how it operates. For example, I did not know that you need the pressure to build up before it will seal itself. I was holding the handles together until it sealed because it was leaking steam. It was by accident that I learned if you wait long enough the pressure will build up and the steam will stop leaking from the lid. I did watch the video posted on WS site and I did not see steam leaking so I ether have a bad rubber seal or it does leak until the pressure builds up. Other than that this is a very well made sturdy cooker that should last the test of time if taken care of. I enjoy this so much that I'm thinking of getting the smaller size, I purchased the 6 qt from WS but can see many use for the smaller size as well. I've made stew in under 20 minutes and had it on the lowest setting my stove would go. It is a time and energy saver!Date published: 2020-01-14Rated 5 out of 5 by RLL1 from kitchen workhorse I love my Fissler. I have had it for five years. This is less fussy than other brands. Flavor of foods are amazingly bright and deep. Quality craftmanship. I want wholesome meals. I can cook dried beans and whole unrefined meats in a reasonable time now. It does take patience to get a feel for how pressure cooking works, however there are now so many instantpot cookbooks and a pressure cooker can be used interchangeably.Date published: 2019-06-24Rated 3 out of 5 by AE232 from Deafening whistle I am using it for the second time and it makes a very loud and high-pitched whistling noise. Not sure what the problem is.Date published: 2018-10-25Rated 5 out of 5 by kingcobra from Build like a tank, dead silent & energy efficient. Couldn't decide between the 6.4qt and 8.5qt. Ended up choosing the 8.5qt mainly because it's much wider at the base. Let me tell you, it's built like a tank. I love the fact that it has a very large base (9.25") which gives you lots of real estate to sear and stir fry without your food being crowded. It's large enough to toss in a brisket, roast, stuffed peppers, whole chicken,... I also make smaller meals however since the pot is so heavy to move around and clean I ended up getting the 4.2 qt pressure cook pot only as it uses the same lid as its big brother. That way I can use the 4.2 for smaller meals. The Fissler is dead silent when under pressure. A baby would sleep right through. Once the cooker is up to pressure I have to turn my gas stove down between the low and medium low setting as it's so energy efficient due to the thick base. It pressurizes without any issues, usually around 5 to 6 minutes. 4 pound brisket in 100 minutes, stuffed peppers in 13 minutes, pasta dish in 12 minutes,... and just one pot to clean up. It's pretty much non stick. Be warned it is a heavy pot and you need some room in your kitchen sink to clean this baby up. So although it's extremely easy to clean it's a bit of a wrestle match. So far so good. Looks to be well made and hopefully it will serve me well for many years to come.Date published: 2017-11-16Rated 5 out of 5 by Virginia7 from Easy to use! I bought this pressure cooker several years ago and love it. I was always afraid of using a pressure cooker, but this one made it so easy that I have no problems. I know exactly when to start timing and when to turn the heat up or down. It's heavy duty and very easy to clean. It's been a great investment.Date published: 2017-05-01Rated 5 out of 5 by MarthaLovesCooking from YOU NEED THIS IN YOUR LIFE! Hands down the best purchase i have ever made. I use this pressure cooker twice a day 6 days a week! It is safe, high quality, quiet, durable and fast. This is not your grandmother's pressure cooker. Technology has advanced and so have stove top pressure cookers. I am so glad that I trusted America's Test Kitchen and Cooks Illustrated's reviews. I am super glad I ignored the salesmen who tried to get me to buy an electronic pressure cooker! Seriously I hate electronic gadgets that break. I buy quality. I highly recommend the FISSLER to everyone I know. I tried the "best buy" Fagor Duo and returned it to the store. I use Bar Keepers Friend and a sponge to clean my pressure cooker. Watch You Tube Videos and read your manual. My All Clad 12 quart stock pot is collecting dust in my garage.Date published: 2016-11-01Rated 5 out of 5 by scienceowl from Simply Fantastic I've had this pressure cooker for about a year now and am thrilled with it. Having never used one before, I decided to give this one a shot and don't regret it for a minute. It couldn't be easier to use, cleans easily, and always produces amazing food. I have used it to make a variety of soups and stews (1 hour prep to serve), amazingly tender meats (pulled pork, chicken, brisket, etc.), and even just to boil potatoes quickly. Being someone who doesn't have a lot of time to cook, this pressure cooker is a miracle for wonderful, quick meals - I highly recommend it for anyone interested in getting a pressure cooker.Date published: 2015-12-12
