Water Heaters
We Ensure Expert Plumbing Services
Our professional plumbers are happy to help you decide which tank water heater is right for you and your budget. The chosen model should be capable of meeting your hot water needs without sacrificing energy efficiency. A number of our ENERGY STAR®-certified models offer superior insulation, heat traps and more efficient burners to limit energy use by as much as 8 percent.
Whatever your hot water needs are, you'll have access to quality tank water heaters with Expert installation and service support from Epperson Service Experts. All of our water heaters are backed by a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee,* so you never have to worry about running out of hot water in the middle of a shower ever again.
Hot Water When You Want It
A tank water heater keeps a supply of water perpetually heated so it's always available whenever you need it. The volume of the tank varies from 20 to 80 gallons, and most families do well enough with a 40- or standard 50-gallon tank.
When the dishwasher, washing machine or shower is running, hot water is drained from the top of the tank and directed wherever you need it. The water heater then draws cold water into the bottom of the tank and begins the heating process over again to replenish the supply.
Tank water heaters are generally less costly to purchase and install than other water heaters. Even though tankless water heaters almost always offer superior energy efficiency, a tank water heater can still be an efficient choice, especially if you choose an ENERGY STAR®-rated model.

Music review: Marilyn Manson, Academy, Glasgow
Marilyn Manson, Academy, Glasgow ***
Manson has elected to run with this gothic pantomime incident and appeared with his leg strapped up on a motorized wheelchair throne – borrowing ideas from Foo Fighters' frontman Dave Grohl - raging from his confinement like a cyberpunk Davros.
Manson was not to be curbed, however, and was helped stage front to conduct most of the set on crutches, from where a couple of deapan assistants in surgical scrubs could keep an eye on him. Later, he took a darkly comic turn on a gurney, echoing the hospital fetish imagery of original shock rocker Alice Cooper.
Hide AdIt was a novel way to keep the Marilyn Manson circus on the road, even if the cavalcade was inevitably interrupted while the ringmaster hobbled into position. With Manson restricted, the energy came from the band's execution of his powerfully hooky blend of punk, metal, industrial, electro and glam rock, best captured on the gothic bubblegum of Mobscene, sleazy swagger of The Dope Show and post-punk maelstrom The Beautiful People.

LIBERIA: Gbapa Clinic Construction Project Nears Completion
Construction of the first modern clinic in Gbapa near Yekepa township in Nimba is nearing completion, following ArcelorMittal Liberia's US$85,000 contribution, to the project.
Since its existence, Gbapa has lacked a basic health facility for its more than 7,000 inhabitants, who travel a long distance to access healthcare services.
In addressing this situation, ArcelorMittal Liberia in a partnership with the town committed US$85,000 to fund the construction of a modern health facility. Residents of the town also accepted to take responsibility for the workmanship and provide local materials, including sand and crushed rocks.
Upon reaching the agreement with the locals, AML provided an initial amount of US$50,000 worth of building materials and delivered the remaining US$35,000 in cash, on May 23.
With this contribution, the construction of the health center is now approaching completion, with plumbing, ceiling, electrification, and plastering works currently ongoing.
Former Posts and Telecommunication Minister, Dr. Fredrick Norkeh who also resides in Gbapa is the head of the clinic construction project, representing the community. He said the project is a 24-room facility, that will be apportioned into different sections.
"It is a health center because it will have many areas where different functions will take place including maternity care," Dr, Norkeh said.
He lauded AML for delivering fully on its commitment, to the people of Gbapa.
The project chairman recounted two incidents in the town on July 7 that resulted in the deaths of two community residents, and stressed the importance of the health center project, nothing that people would not have to lose their lives to curable illnesses. He meanwhile promised to work to ensure the successful completion of the project.
"The work should be completed in six months. In fact, by October or November, you will see a different form of the clinic project," he said.
The head contractor, Cyrus G. Quoi also assured that the project will be completed by September, earlier than was earlier projected.
Dr. Norkeh called on the government to contribute as the center, when fully operational will also serve the people of surrounding towns and communities.
AML's Intervention Brings Relief to G.W. Harley Hospital
It is becoming convincingly clear that embarrassment encountered by patients and staff of the G.W. Harley Hospital, especially during the rainy season will soon become history. It is one of the three major referral medical centers in Nimba County, but the buildings have been in dilapidated condition over time.
The hospital is beginning to take a new shape with the provision of US$45,000 in assistance, by ArcelorMittal Liberia, upon request by the hospital's management.
In January, AML's Government and Community Relations Manager, Marcus Wleh on behalf of the company presented a symbolic check of $45,000, disclosing AML's resolve to ensure that the hospital is reroofed, painted, and re-electrified.
The hospital was in a poor state, with the roof profusely leaking, among other conditions, causing stress and embarrassment for staff and patients, especially during the rainy season. Patients were compared to placing buckets on their beds during heavy downpours of rains. But with the intervention of AML, these conditions would no longer exist, when renovation works are complete. The hospital would be back to its full capacity in a conducive and functional state.
In an interview, G.W. Harley Hospital's Logistics Officer working with the contracted group carrying out the renovation, Peter Kula said the re-roofing of the facility is nearly completed, while painting work is as well halfway completed.
"Before ArcelorMittal could come in to help renovate this building, we were seriously embarrassed especially during the rainy season because the water was dropping on in-patients all over, but now we can say that only some little finishing touches need to be done now, on the roof," Kula said. "The problem we used to encounter no longer exists."
He said the hospital's administration is also eagerly expecting the final approval of the electrical works to commence. While Jungle Energy Power is currently providing electricity to the hospital, he said the current wiring was poorly done, leading to constant outages.
"Whenever there is any electrical fault on any of the wires, the entire building will go out of the light until that part with the problem is repaired. We hope the wiring component of the project can be approved to correct all the faults to stop this other embarrassment," Kula added.
Edmund Gbah, AML's Community Relations Supervisor in Yekepa said ongoing community initiatives being sponsored by the company are essential to strengthening its relationship with its stakeholders. According to him, GW. Harley Hospital's ongoing renovation is one of the essential projects the company decided to undertake, in the short term.
Even though the Government of Liberia has reached an agreement with AML for the relocation of the hospital, Gbah said the renovation is a quick impact project, for the benefit of the people of its mining impact communities.
He highlighted that in addition to the ongoing renovation of the hospital, other community projects like the Zolowii Public School renovation, the installation of streetlights in Yekepa, and the ongoing Gbapa clinic construction are indicators that AML is a responsible corporate entity.

Singapore was founded by Sir Stamford Raffles in 1819. Located at southern tip of Malaysian Peninsula, the modern city-state is a success story of the twentieth century. Singapore entrepot trade progressed rapidly in first three decades of the twentieth century. Commodities such as rubber, timber, species, and tin were brought to Singapore from the neighbouring countries to be sent to the West. In return, consumers goods, liquor, machinery from the West were transshipped to the neighbouring countries. Singapore has established herself as the premier trading port of the Far East. Migrants from China and Indian came to Singapore as labourers. Some of these early pioneers were to become tremendous success stories in the commercial world, through sheer grits, thrift, hard-work, perseverance and vision. The years between the World War II and the Independence were tumultuous. Those were years of chaos. Singapore was ravaged by the Japanese occupation and then experienced the merger with Malaysia, and separation from Malaysia(1965). Amidst the uncertainties, Singapore survived and thrived through the able and far-sighted leadership of Lee Kuan Yew. Lee led Singapore to Independence and was sworn in as Singapore's first Prime Minister on 5 June, 1959. He retired in 1990. Under his guidance, Singapore became a financial and industrial powerhouse, despite a lack of abundant natural resources. Today, Singapore is a top business city in the world. It has excellent infrastructure such as a modern airport, deep sea harbours, up to date communication facilities, sound financial system, and a stable environment. Most important of all, a well educated and competitive work force.
The founder, Sir Stamford Raffles, himself a success story, rose from a petty clerk to the a high officer of British East India Company, a powerful trading company which administered Britain's far eastern settlement then. He was the governor of Java during the French Wars but now Java had been handed back to the Dutch. The Dutch were in control of the vital Malacca Straits, and Raffles has to move quickly to find and establish a presence for Britain. Together with Colonel Farquhar, they found a small fishing outpost at the tip of Malaysian peninsula. Raffles negotiated with Sultan Hussein of Johore Sultanate to give Britain the sole right to build a trading post on Singapore Island. Hence, the foundation for the modern Singapore was laid. Singapore was founded as free entrepot from day one. Slowing and steadily, traders moved in to do business without much fuss and red-tape. Singapore was growing into a busy trading port in the region.

Turkish police detain 14 suspected militants in al-Qaeda raids
Turkish police have detained 14 al-Qaeda suspects people in overnight raids south of the Turkish capital targeting militants from the terror network, state-run television reported on Tuesday.
TRT said the suspects were detained in simultaneous police raids cross the city of Konya, 250 km (155 miles) south of Ankar. The 15 people were suspected of being al-Qaida members, now led by Egyptian Ayman al-Zawahiri, but the report gave no further details.
Turkish police were either not immediately reached for comment when or declined when contacted by news agencies.
Earlier this year, police arrested a group accused of planning to attack the U.S. Embassy and another group in the southern city of Adana, which is home to the Incirlik Air Base used by the United States to transfer noncombat supplies to Iraq and Afghanistan. The raid included an arrest of individuals from one house near Ankara, after police discovered explosives and weapons.
Authorities have said al-Qaeda planned to attack Incirlik in the past but were deterred by high security.

RALEIGH – Taylorsville's Beulah Coley and her 5-year-old daughter, Cora, were driving back from a weekend getaway at the family's mountain cabin when tragedy struck unexpectedly.
Thankfully, she and her daughter were wearing their seat belts.
That decision saved their lives and earned Coley the Governor's Highway Safety Program's "Saved By the Belt Award" for July. "It was a beautiful, sunny drive," Coley recalls. "Cora and I were listening to music and discussing our summer plans."
Less than two miles from their house, Coley watched as an oncoming car ran off N.C. 16, then overcorrected, heading straight for Coley's vehicle. "There was no time to react before our cars collided head on."
The accident left Coley and her daughter seriously injured. They were airlifted to Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte and suffered broken bones and lacerations, but both eventually recovered.
Beulah and little Cora were lucky to survive.
"We were told numerous times in the hospital that we would likely not have survived if we had not been appropriately restrained," Coley said, adding that their injuries were among the worst their doctors had ever seen.
The Coleys and others like them are the main reason the N.C. Governor's Highway Safety Program, or NCGHSP, created the "Saved By the Belt Award."
"Ms. Coley made an incredibly smart decision for herself and her daughter," said Mark Ezzell, director of NCGHSP. "Their story proves what we already know, that seat belts save lives, and lets us continue spending precious time with our loved ones."
Coley agrees.
"Although it's been hard to watch her suffer, I'm so grateful to be here with my baby," she said. "I've always buckled up – but now I have an even greater desire to share our story and encourage everyone else to take this simple and potentially life-saving precaution."

Question: "What is the good confession in 1 Timothy 6:12?"
First Timothy 6:12 states, "Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses." This verse is part of Paul's personal letter to Timothy and provides instructions on how to live and lead. Let's focus on the concept of "the good confession" that Timothy made.
The "good confession" refers to a public declaration of faith. Interestingly, in the next verse, Paul mentions that Jesus also made a good confession: "In the sight of God, who gives life to everything, and of Christ Jesus, who while testifying before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, I charge you" (1 Timothy 6:13).
In John 18:37, we find the details of Jesus' confession: "'You are a king, then!' said Pilate. Jesus answered, 'You say that I am a king. In fact, the reason I was born and came into the world is to testify to the truth. Everyone on the side of truth listens to me.'" Here,
refers not merely to a set of precepts in Scripture but to the embodiment of truth in Jesus Himself (John 14:6). When Jesus claimed to testify to the truth, He was, in essence, testifying about Himself.
Thus, the good confession bears witness to Jesus, as Romans 10:9–10 emphasizes, "If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved."
The Greek word for "belief" is
, which also denotes trust in something. A proper confession of Jesus arises from trusting in His resurrection, intrinsically linked to His sacrifice on the cross for our sin. There is no resurrection without the crucifixion.
Modern evangelistic crusades often feature public declarations with altar calls. While altar calls can be beneficial, they should be offered to individuals who understand themselves as sinners in need of a Savior. We come to Christ to be reconciled with God, not for money, a comfortable life, or even good health. While we have the promise of a future freedom from suffering, sickness, and pain (Revelation 21:4), Jesus' primary mission was to lead us to the Father, not to grant a physical utopia on earth. Therefore, the gospel must serve as the foundation for every altar call.
Similarly, the sinner's prayer, used as a formulaic approach to guide someone in making a confession, should be handled with care. The sinner's prayer is not a magical statement, and it does not, in itself, save. Jesus saves us by faith. The sinner's prayer should be an outward declaration of the inner transformation that has occurred, and it must be accompanied by the gospel.
Once we have believed and publicly made a good confession, like Timothy, we are called to "take hold of eternal life" and live consistently with our beliefs.

text: If hedge funds have increased systemic risk, we need to find out by how much and whether the benefits outweigh the risks, says Andrew Lo and Amir Khandani's paper on quants (see story on page 42). But registration is not the way forward. The authors back up proposals made by other academics that instead a monitoring board would make a good starting point. "By establishing a dedicated and experienced team of forensic accountants, lawyers, and financial engineers to monitor various aspects of systemic risk in the financial system, and by studying every financial blow-up and developing guidelines for improving our methods and models a capital markets safety board may be a more direct way to deal with the systemic risks of the hedge fund industry," concludes the paper. "A great idea," comments one manager, "but the banks will never allow it."

For years, Detric Fox-Quinlan told her husband, Malik Rhasaan, that he needed to get his food in front of people.
"I said, 'I want people to taste your food. Please open a restaurant,'" Fox-Quinlan said.
After too many days of the couple coming home stressed from their corporate day jobs, they decided to pursue their culinary dream and buy a food truck, while continuing to look for a brick-and-mortar restaurant space.
Not long after, Che Butter Jonez, a nod to Rhasaan's online alias, was born.
With the tagline, "I cook better than your muva!" and a sketch of Rhasaan's snarling face on the side, the truck soon attracted long lines to its regular space in the parking lot at the Met development in southwest Atlanta.
In his two years in the food business, Rhasaan, a native of Queens, New York, has developed a following for his rotating menu, which often features dishes including the That Sh** Slambing, a lamb burger with lettuce, tomato, caramelized onions and jalapenos with an herb sauce and fries; and the Bobby and Whitney combo that comes with a beef burger and shrimp fries.
While the couple worked on building their customer base, including amassing more than 10,000 followers on Instagram, Rhasaan and Fox-Quinlan (she is known as Bae Butter Jonez) kept an eye out for a brick-and-mortar location .
They finally found it in their beloved southwest Atlanta, and hope to open just before Christmas at 757 Cleveland Ave. SW. Located in a strip anchored by a Chevron gas station, the space will have very limited seating and will cater almost exclusively to takeout.
Rhasaan said that while part of the appeal of the location is its manageable rent, more important is that it will allow Che Butter Jonez to fully embed itself into the community.
"We want to show that good food can come from anywhere, and this community is deserving," he said. "Something's going to be here — why not me?"
Helping them to achieve their restaurant dreams are their customers, who stepped up during the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic to buy extra food to allow the truck to provide free meals to first responders. Many customers "have embedded us into their lives," Fox-Quinlan said, noting that some patrons visit the truck two or three times a week.
Another boost came in the form of a $10,000 grant in June from Nav, an organization that helps small businesses manage their credit and get access to financing.
A permanent space will enable Rhasaan to expand his made-to-order offerings and plan tasting menus and chef events for small groups. He'll continue to offer breakfast items including the Circle and the Bodega sandwiches, as well as weekend brunch options featuring the likes of crab omelets and a cod-based dish that pays homage to Rhasaan's Bermudian roots.
While Rhasaan and Fox-Quinlan are excited to plant roots in their neighborhood, ultimately they're just happy to have a chance to serve a wider swath of the public.
"We spent so much time looking for the perfect location before I realized that we create the perfect location," Rhasaan said. "When people come to my truck, I want them to have good food and a good experience, and I want the same for the restaurant."
The Che Butter Jonez food truck currently operates Wednesday-Saturday. Follow Che Butter Jonez on Instagram for daily hours and location updates.

It was about three years ago when we booked to go and see Les Miserables at Leeds Grand Theatre. It was some time since the show had last toured and I was looking forward to seeing it. We booked three tickets so that Eleanor could come with us and thought it would make a nice treat for Mick as our tickets were for the 13th of August 2020, the night before his birthday.
We all know what happened in 2020, just about everything got cancelled owing to the pandemic. Our tickets were transferred to a date in 2021 and we just hoped that everything would go ahead without any further delays, but that was not to be. The show was cancelled again and a further date pencilled in.
It's been quite a wait since we booked our tickets back in 2019 but it was worth it. We finally got to see it last night and it was a fantastic show. We had really good seats at the very front of the upper circle so we could see everything that was happening on the stage. It was a wonderful production with fantastic stage sets and scenery, and amazing performances from the cast.
We all had a brilliant night out and in the end, it turned out to be a lovely pre Christmas treat.

The Plan
Okay, so if you want to make something happen, you've got to have a plan. Right?
And what does a plan need? Goals. It's often said that people grossly under estimate what they can achieve in five years, but grossly over estimate what they can achieve in, say, a week. So let's pick something simple – a year. It's the beginning of the year still (well, just), so what would you like to achieve by the end of 2009 (I don't know when you're reading this, obviously, but if you're half-way through a year, or even three quarters or whatever, don't let that put you off. Still put some goals down for the end of the year).
If you're struggling, you might like to work backwards from a longer time-frame. What would you like to have achieved after five years have passed? What would you have had to have done in the next three years to achieve that? Two years? One year? There's your goals.
Now, let's do a quick check. Are your goals:
1) specific enough. If you want to be well on the way to completing your novel, what does 'well on the way' mean? A certain percentage? 20 chapters?
2) realistic and achievable in that timeframe? Be honest. If in the back of your mind you know you can't possibly come from nothing to be a worldwide bestselling novelist in a year, don't write it down! Don't give yourself the excuse you need to quit before you've even started!
Now, break it down (MC Hammer style). You know how many months you have to get this done. So what will you have to achieve each month to meet each goal? Do whatever is easiest in order to break the year down. Maybe you don't know what you would have to do each month, but looking at any goal for the year, you should be able to decide where you want to be half way through the year. Then break it down further from there.
Got it? Good. So you've got goals, and you know whereabouts you should be at the end of each month on each of those goals. So let's focus on the remaining weeks of the month. What are you going to do each week to make sure that you achieve your goals for this month? Can you see a pattern?
Now don't worry if your first set of tasks looks a little flimsy – better that than they are simply unachievable, and you can reasonably expect that the first month might be filled with preparation for the months to follow (planning, sketching out ideas, research).
Of course, this might seem a bit OTT for some people. I've met a few people this comes naturally to, and they can even do it in their heads. Coupled with an ambitious drive, these are the people who seem well ahead of the rest of us, and get further, quicker. I am not one of those people – I have to write things down. This does several things for me:
- forces me to think about my goals in a logical matter of fact manner
- gets stuff out of my head that would otherwise be cluttering it up
- gives me a much needed framework.
I find that by the time I've finished writing something down, it already feels much more real to me – like it could actually happen.
This is not the whole story of course, but it is a start. And if you've never done it before, you may find this simple act to be more progress than you made last year!
Has this helped you? Do you plan already, and if so, do you have a different way of doing it? Let everyone know below.

Lady Bulldogs prepare for final regular season match up on Friday
February 15, 2023
One game remains on the Lady Bulldogs regular season schedule and as the team prepares for what may come in the post season, they continue to work on lowering turnovers and working together as a team. Last week, Haxtun competed in one game, on the road in Akron, where they fell to the Lady Rams despite an impressive first half that found the Lady Bulldogs down by just four at the midway mark.
"As a senior, watching my team grow from where we began this season to where we are now has been an incredibly rewarding feeling," said Grace Gibson, one of the team's three seniors on this year's r...

Alps scenic Hikes - Hike to Archenkanzel at Lake Königssee
One of the most famous views over the Königssee besides Jenner and Malerwinkel offers the viewpoint at Archenkanzel. From there you can see down to St. Bartholomä and the Königssee and to the mountains of the Steinernes Meer. Easier hiking trails from Schönau as well as a more challenging and scenic trail the Rinnkendlsteig from St. Bartholomä lead in a half-day hiking tour to the viewpoint.
There are various hiking trails for the ascent to the Archenkanzel. Our favorite variant is the ascent from St. Bartholomä via the Rinnkendlsteig, from which you can repeatedly enjoy fantastic views of the turquoise-blue Königssee even before you reach your actual destination. The trail leads in some places along the steep rocky flanks (head for heights required) and requires a little easy scrambling. For the descent, you can then take the same path back, but then you have to catch a boat back to Schönau. Alternatively, you can take the easy hiking and forestry trail back to Schönau via the Kührointalm. For those who prefer mountain biking, this route can also be easily covered by bike.
The starting point for our tour is the chapel of St. Bartholomä at Königssee. To get there you take a boat from Schönau. Departure times and prices can be found on the Königssee Schiffahrt website here. St. Bartholomä is accessible by boat all year round (except when the Königssee freezes over). The trip by boat to St. Bartholomä is a dream. In good weather you can admire the reflection of the Watzmann east face in the lake and get to hear the famous echo from Königssee.
Arrived at St. Bartholomä, take the lakeside path past the church and follow the signs in the direction of Rinnkendlsteig. After a short time, the path leaves the lakeshore and leads into the forest. In serpentines the trail leads uphill in the forest. Further up, you reach the end of the forest and encounter some rocky passages from which, you have a first view of the lake further down. The path now continues along the rock with some more exposed passages. While following the path to the right, you can already see the destination, the Archenkanzel, at the top.
The path now leads in a gully steeper uphill, where you have to scramble a bit. At the top, the path becomes somewhat flatter again. Here you get a great view of St. Bartholomä and the lake, similar to that of the Archenkanzel, which is now almost directly above us. Continuing along the path, you reach the forest again and after a short while you meet the other hiking trail. Here you turn right and after another 10 min you reach your destination, the Archenkanzel.
Framed by the larches all around, you have a fantastic view of the Königssee from here. You have the most beautiful light in the afternoon when the lake still glistens turquoise blue in the sun and the mountains of the Steinernes Meer are illuminated by the sun. Who wants to enjoy the view as alone as possible should come early in the morning or evening.
For the way back we take the route via the Kührointalm back to Schönau. First you follow the path back. At the turnoff to the Rinnkendlsteig and to St. Bartholomä you follow the path straight ahead to Kührointalm. As soon as you reach the forest road, you will meet some cyclist. The forest paths here are perfect to shorten some hiking tours with bike and hike or simply for a quick mountain bike tour.
Whereever possible, it is best to follow the hiking trail that repeatedly branches off from and crosses the forest road. The first junction is shortly after you have passed the Kührointalm. The trail leads further downhill on a more direct path. Further down we cross it once and finally meet the forest road again in the end. From there you follow the forest road.
When you reach the junction to the Grünstein via ferrata, it is not far down to Schönau anymore. After two large serpentines, the path leaves the forest. On the meadow next to the toboggan run you continue downhill to the bridge over the Königsseer Ache and have now reached the Königssee again. Back to the parking lot in Schönau you follow the signs from here.

Hemp seeds are incredibly nutritious and have a mild nutty flavor. They are often referred to as hemp hearts and contain more than 30% fat. Hemp seeds are exceptionally rich in two essential fatty acids, linoleic acid (omega-6) and alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3). They are a great source of magnesium, which helps regulate the heartbeat and is linked to the prevention of coronary heart disease.
A 3-tablespoon serving provides 166 calories with nearly 10 grams of protein, 14 grams of anti-inflammatory fat and just 2.5 grams of carbohydrates with 1 gram of fiber. Hemp seeds are also packed with key vitamins and minerals, including 100% of the daily value (DV) of manganese, a nutrient needed to maintain strong bones and produce collagen for healthy skin and joints. Hemp hearts are known to improve concentration and cognitive functioning. They contain antioxidants, omega fats, essential vitamins and minerals beneficial to the brain. Research is ongoing, but the antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects of hemp seed oil may also help treat acne.
The fiber content in hemp seeds can cause digestive discomfort such as bloating, nausea, or constipation in large quantities. The health benefits of hemp hearts are plentiful and offer everything from nutrients that support bone and heart health to essential minerals for plant consumers. Just three tablespoons of hemp hearts provide 210 milligrams of magnesium and 495 milligrams of phosphorus, which breaks down to a whopping 68 percent and 70 percent of the recommended daily allowance, respectively, for each of those nutrients. Animal and human research strongly suggests that hemp seeds may improve cardiovascular health and high blood pressure. With that portion of hemp seeds, you'll also consume 25% of the DV of zinc, which supports immune function, and 10 to 25% of the recommended intake of key B vitamins that provide energy. Like hemp seeds, hemp protein contains key nutrients, such as manganese, magnesium, zinc and potassium.
Studies have shown that hemp seeds reduce blood clotting, which may interact with anticoagulant prescriptions. Hemp seeds also have high amounts of protein albumin, the same protein that gives glory to eggs, except that what sets hemp apart is that it is completely plant-based, non-transgenic and 100% organic. The subjects were studied in a follow-up plan of two weeks, eight weeks of treatment and eight weeks of follow-up who had excessive constipation syndrome and were given pills containing hemp seeds. Unlike CBD oil, which is used to treat pain and problems, hemp seeds are commercially manufactured products that do not contain cannabinoids. Look for them in the nut and seed aisles, in the organic or natural food aisle, or in the baking aisle. Hemp seeds can be incorporated into meals and snacks in various ways.
They can be added to smoothies or salads for an extra crunch or used as a topping on oatmeal or yogurt.

Floods in Pakistan continue to devastate communities, with over 30 million people affected, including almost 1,000 dead.
Teresa Anderson, Global Lead on Climate Justice for ActionAid International, says:
"Rising global temperatures are triggering many different extreme weather events, from severe drought in East Africa, to the latest catastrophic flooding in Pakistan.
"In the blink of an eye, tens of millions of people in Pakistan have lost their homes, their crops, their livelihoods and their lives to flooding. The cost of the long-term recovery for a cash-strapped country like Pakistan will be enormous.
"The flooding in Pakistan clearly demonstrates why the UN climate talks need to urgently agree a new funding facility to address climate-induced loss and damage at the upcoming COP27 negotiations in Egypt later this year. Communities in Pakistan have done little to cause the climate crisis, but they are the ones who are now enduring the tragedy and bearing the cost. It's past time for wealthy, industrialised countries who have done the most to heat the planet to step up and agree to a financial mechanism that helps to address this fundamental injustice."

He knew the difference between a clit and a G-spot. He knew where all the best nerves were, including the ones that were exhausting to reach. From there, he lavished her with intimate kissing, touching, and fondling, the likes of which confirmed each a passion and an understanding of the female physique.

2015 Alkarama Award Honours Omani MP's Determination to Hold Government Accountable
On the occasion of Human Rights Day, the Alkarama Foundation presented its 7th annual award for Human Rights Defenders in the Arab World on 8 December 2015 to Omani human rights advocate and former parliamentarian, Talib Al Mamari, in recognition of his important work defending human rights in his country, in particular since the crackdown on civil society that followed the 2011 protests. The ceremony held at the Ecumenical Centre in Geneva commended Al Mamari's courage speaking up for his countrymen before Parliament and standing with them against the arbitrariness of the government's policies, especially those related to the health of the citizens of his native region of Liwa.
Upon receiving the award symbolically on behalf of Talib Al Mamari, still detained at the Smaa'il prison near Muscat, Swiss politician Ueli Leuenberger responded to observations that "there would be countries in the region where situation is much worse than Oman" by reminding the assembly that "human rights are indivisible" and "must be encouraged and promoted everywhere," in particular among States which, like Oman, "repress and lock out the noblest of these women and men."
Other speakers at the event included UN and international law expert, Sétondji Roland Adjovi and Gulf experts from international human rights organisations, Adam Coogle from Human Rights Watch and Radidja Nemar from Alkarama.
Opening the ceremony, Alkarama's Executive Director, Mourad Dhina said, "this year, Alkarama has decided to grant its annual award to a figure of peaceful resistance to oppression in the Arab Gulf region [...]. In the Omani society and the Gulf in general, Talib Al Mamari personifies the struggle to guarantee the rights of the citizens and to make governments accountable before them. His arbitrary detention is sadly not surprising in a region where governments continue to wrongly perceive such legitimate and non-violent requests as 'affronts' and infringements to 'stability'."
Elected at the Shura Council in 2011, Talib Al Mamari was arrested two days after taking part in a peaceful demonstration against the adverse effects of petrochemical pollution, on 24 August 2013, and sentenced to four years in prison and a 700 Rials (about 1,300 US dollars) fine for "harming the State's prestige," "crowding" and "illegal gathering."
Addressing the audience from Jordan, Adam Coogle, Middle East Researcher at Human Rights Watch, who met the Al Mamari family in mid-2014, said, "we think that Talib Al Mamari should never have been charged in the first place," explaining that "Oman probably persecuted him because, as an elected representative, he was very critical of Omani policies," and calling on the government "to halt its harsh repression of human rights activists and peaceful dissidents," as well as "to amend the vague laws that it uses to curtail basic rights."
In fact, "Oman's public image of a tourism and progressive country hides quite a different reality," continued Radidja Nemar, Legal Officer for the Gulf region at Alkarama. "It is one of the few countries that is not a party to the Convention against Torture (UNCAT), a country that is held by an absolute monarchy, which criminalises all forms of criticism and does not allow its population the possibility to participate to their country's political life."
The Majliss Al Shura or 'Consultative Council', of which Talib Al Mamari was a member, acts as an elected parliament but, as its name indicates, only holds a consultative and not a decisional role. Thus, explains Nemar, "when Talib made use of his position to hold the Omani rulers accountable, the government subjected him to reprisals to remind him that he was not supposed to give his opinion, unless it was in line with that of the authorities," and this, despite the parliamentary immunity that was supposed to protect him.
Speaking on behalf of the United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention (WGAD), Second Vice-Chair, Sétondji Roland Adjovi expressed his admiration for the Omani activist. "Talib has been an exceptional human rights defender fighting for the rights of his fellow citizens but also for the future generations, advocating for the rights to a safe and clean environment and against the continuous and high-level pollution suffered by the region. He has also been very critical of his government as every elected official should be so that the care for the population continuously improves."
This is why, the WGAD unreservedly considered his detention as arbitrary and concluded "that the Government should not only release Dr Al Mamari but also accord him an enforceable right to compensation." Despite the UN Working Group's Opinion, Talib Al Mamari is still detained at the Smaa'il prison near Muscat.
In his absence, Legal Director and co-founder of Alkarama, Rachid Mesli handed the 2015 Award for Human Rights Defenders to the good care of Swiss politician Ueli Leuenberger, who gained recognition as parliamentarian for his tireless advocacy for human rights and the respect of the environment. Mesli started by paying tribute to the previous years' laureates, most of whom, like Talib Al Mamari, were not able to receive the award in person as they too remained detained or banned from travelling for their peaceful commitment to protect and promote human rights in their respective countries.
"In the absence of Talib Al Mamari, of his lawyer, himself arrested a couple of weeks ago, and of his family for fear of reprisals, I am happy to give the prize to Mr Ueli Leuenberger who shares with our laureate common universal values, as a human rights defender and an environmental activist who, through his role at the Swiss parliament, always thrived to defend and promote the rights of his fellow citizens, but also to call for more democracy in the world," said Mesli.
Receiving the award on behalf of Talib Al Mamari, Ueli Leuenberger, former President of the Green party, former member of the Swiss Parliament and President of the Geneva Institute for Arab and Mediterranean Studies, said that "honouring an activist and parliamentarian so deeply engaged with the concerns of his fellow citizens, fighting against environmental destruction and pollution, which endangers and sickens people living near petrochemical facilities, is of particular significance on the eve of International Human Right Day and during the UN Climate Conference in Paris," and vowed to take good care of the award until he could present the 2015 laureate with his award "to a free man, so he can continue the commitment that we both share."
Defending human rights is not a crime, except of course for dictators. Talib Al Mamari clearly understood this, when he declared "there is no space left in this world − that of freedom and civilisation − for persistent dictatorship."

It happens to all of us, you're in the middle of writing your best song yet and boom the dreaded writer's block strikes. You can't figure out the right chord to end the chorus or the next line of the lyrics. Despite trying every combination, nothing seems to work and you can't get back into the same thought process.
A recent study by psychologists has found that one way to boost imaginative thinking is by listening to happy music. According to the study, this uplifting music can help artists think more flexibly and avoid getting stuck in a creative rut. We also spoke to a group of musicians and songwriters who shared their top tips from first hand experiences with writer's block. Here's a selection of their top tips on how to get those creative juices flowing again.
Further Tips to Overcome Writer's Block
"Start writing on a different instrument."
If you usually write songs by playing the guitar, sit behind a piano instead and see what comes out.
"Go for a walk."
Getting some fresh air and taking your mind off of writing completely can help you have that eureka moment.
"Going to gigs and watching new artists always inspires me to want to go home and pick the guitar up."
Putting yourself in the crowd instead of on the stage can give you some fresh perspective and give you the urge to go and write straightaway!
"Word Vomit."
Sing or play without a plan and record it. Sometimes it might be complete rubbish but sometimes you can find something that inspires you.
"Learn new techniques, scales or weird, jazzy chords."
This might spur you to put together a new combination of notes or chords that could be the end of your writer's block woes.
"For lyrics, get someone to give you a topic or a word to try to build a song around it."
We're all guilty of being indecisive now and then. This takes away any choice and forces you to start writing.
"Listen to new styles, new artists or different instrumentation."
When listening to something out of your usual style or genre, you never know what might inspire you!
"Let the world around you inspire you"
Watching the news, reading a book or watching TV can sometimes kickstart your imagination or provide you with new themes to write about.
Got any tips on how you have overcome being uninspired? Tell us your techniques in the comments.

How to Distinguish from Similar Species: The only other sergestid common in this area, Sergia tenuiremis, has no supraorbital or hepatic spine, no Organ of Pesta, is not bioluminescent, and has a tubercle on the inner margin of the eyestalk. Geographical Range: North Pacific Ocean, Japan through Alaska and the southwest Bering Sea south along the Amereican coast to the Gulf of California; off Chile, and in the eastern South Atlantic. Depth Range: Surface (at night) to 1200 m; most common 150-500 m during the day (vertical migrator) Habitat: Mesopelagic, Oceanic (offshore). Also found nearer shore in deeper areas of the continental shelf. Biology/Natural History: Since red light does not penetrate to the daytime depths of this prawn, the red parts of its body are effectively black. This species has organs of Pesta, which are bioluminescent, ventral to the red visceral mass. The organs of pesta have a shiny reflector to make the bioluminescence directional. As the animal moves through the water it turns the organs of pesta so that the bioluminescence is directed downward, thus effectively erasing its shadow. In situ studies in Monterey Bay showed that this species swims an average of 7.4 cm/s, or about 1.5 body lengths per second. Propulsion is exclusively by the pleopods, which beat at 4 Hz. The animal swims continuously, and remains above the oxygen minimum layer. It ascends near the surface at night and descends to deeper water during the day. The antennae respond to tactile stimuli and probably to vibrations in the water. This species matures in 1 or 2 years. Peak spawning is during the summer. May die after spawning. Feeds on large copepods and euphausiids. Predators include albacore, rockfish, sei and fin whales, and snipe eels.

Ireland To Vote On Overturning Blasphemy Ban
In what the Washington Post describes as an effort to "move away from its strongly conservative Catholic background to a more secular social agenda," Ireland is set to vote on overturning its retrograde blasphemy ban.
Blasphemy is illegal under the country's 1937 constitution and under the Defamation Act of 2009. The law predicts a punishment of $28,000.
The Defamation Act of 2009 prohibits "publishing or uttering matter that is grossly abusive or insulting in relation to matters sacred by any religion," and the constitution says that the "publication or utterance of blasphemous, seditious, or indecent matter is an offense which shall be punishable in accordance with law."
Once highly influential and ubiquitously present, the Irish Catholic church is becoming less and less powerful by the year.
In 2015, Ireland became the first country to legalize same-sex marriage by popular vote, and in May this year, Ireland voted to repeal its abortion ban.
The vote to overturn the centuries-old blasphemy ban is continuing to move the country in the direction of secularism, further separating the church from the state.
In a statement supplied to CNN, Ireland's Minister for justice and equality Charlie Flanaghan said the following.
"By removing this provision from our Constitution, we can send a strong message to the world that laws against blasphemy do not reflect Irish values and that we do not believe such laws should exist."
According to the Commission on International Religious Freedom, blasphemy is currently illegal in 71 countries worldwide.
When it comes to Europe, blasphemy remains illegal in Andorra, Austria, Cyprus, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Greece, Italy, Liechtenstein, Malta, Montenegro, Poland, Russia, Spain, Switzerland, and Turkey.
Both the Catholic Bishops Conference and the Islamic Cultural Center of Ireland criticized the decision to hold a vote on the country's blasphemy ban, the Washington Post notes, arguing that overturning it would be used to justify oppression against the religious, in Ireland and elsewhere.
Confused about blasphemy and Ireland? Here's everything you need to know ahead of Friday's referendum https://t.co/ncejKUACSz
— The Irish Times (@IrishTimes) October 25, 2018
Although the Catholic Church is not nearly as influential as it used to be in Ireland, young Irish people are among the most religious in Europe, according to the Irish Times.
Research shows that 54 percent of Irish people between the ages of 16 and 29 identify as Catholic, and 15 percent attend weekly religious services. Thirty-nine percent are irreligious.
The numbers are much higher across the pond, however.
According to Gallup, 37 percent of Americans are highly religious, and another 30 percent moderately religious. Thirty-three percent are not religious at all.
Interestingly, 48 percent of those who consider themselves highly religious approve of President Donald Trump, as well as 40 percent of moderately religious Americans.
