The State
June 10, 2018
BY TONY PUGH, McClatchy
In a long-shot bid to stop seismic testing for oil and gas in the Atlantic Ocean, coastal business leaders and elected officials are raising concerns the tests could cause toxins to leak from vast amounts of conventional munitions, chemical weapons and radioactive waste that now sits undisturbed on the ocean floor.
For decades, the U.S. military routinely dumped thousands of tons of obsolete, excess and captured munitions into U.S. coastal waters, thinking the high seas were the best place for the materials to safely decompose. The Atomic Energy Commission likewise oversaw the ocean dumping of untold thousands of drums of low-level radioactive waste from the nation's manufacturing, research, medical and military sectors.
As President Donald Trump pushes to make more offshore waters available for oil and gas drilling, the administration wants to make it easier for companies to use seismic testing to aid in the exploration process. But coastal leaders say allowing seismic testing in the Atlantic Ocean could disturb the long-forgotten hazardous refuse and release toxic contaminants.
"Over the last couple years, people have asked me why I have been so opposed to seismic surveys off our coast," Mayor Billy Keyserling of Beaufort, South Carolina, said in a recent statement. "But when I now tell them about the radioactive waste and munition dumps, they are horrified and ask what they can do to help."
Keyersling and others want to block the seismic testing plan, but their lobbying campaign may be coming too late to affect the Trump administration's upcoming decision on whether to move the seismic permitting process forward.
Five companies want federal approval to shoot pressurized air blasts into the ocean every 10 to 12 seconds around-the-clock for months at a time in search of fossil fuel deposits beneath the ocean. The proposed seismic testing area would cover over 330,000 square miles of ocean from Florida to the Delaware bay.
In public comments to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, businesses and residents along the eastern seaboard strongly opposed seismic testing, fearing it could lead to offshore drilling which, they fear, could harm marine life, tourism and commercial and recreational fishing.
The public comment period ended in July 2017. But because of the large volume of comments, NOAA Fisheries hasn't yet decided whether to issue or deny the testing companies' request for "incidental harassment authorizations" that allow small numbers of marine mammals to be injured or disturbed in testing operations.
The delay has allowed testing opponents to mount a new attack, claiming that shock waves from the underwater air blasts could detonate or cause toxic chemicals to leak from tons of U.S. bombs, grenades, rockets and mortars that the U.S. military dumped in the Atlantic Ocean from the end of World War I until 1970.
Chemical warfare agents were also discarded in the Atlantic, including 10,000 tons of lewisite, an arsenic-laced blister agent; nearly 6,000 tons of mustard; more than 500 tons of arsenic trichloride and more than 250 tons of sarin, according to a 2009 report by the Department of Defense.
In all, 33 munitions disposal sites are scattered along the Atlantic Coast from Florida to Maine, encompassing much of the ocean area where the proposed testing would occur, the DOD reported.
Similar concerns have been raised about the air blasts causing leaks in rusting, steel drums of radioactive waste that were dumped in the Atlantic Ocean under the guidance of the old Atomic Energy Commission.
From 1946 through 1962, the U.S dumped "approximately 89,400 containers with an estimated inventory of 94,400 curies of radioactivity" in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, according to a 1980 Environmental Protection Agency report prepared for a House subcommittee.
Ninety-six percent of "all radioactivity dumped in the Atlantic" was discarded in sites off the coast of New Jersey, the report said.
One dump site located 140 miles southeast of Coast Guard Station Sandy Hook in Highlands, N.J., received 14,301 containers totaling 74,400 curies of radioactivity from 1951 to 1956 and from 1959 to 1962. Another site, 220 miles southeast of the Sandy Hook station, received 14,500 containers with 2,100 curies of radioactivity from 1957 to 1959, the EPA report said.
The containers typically stored low-level radioactive waste, such as contaminated equipment, tools and clothing, which were usually encased in concrete-filled steel drums, the report said.
Even though both New Jersey dump sites are outside the area where the proposed seismic testing would occur, other Atlantic Ocean dump sites not included in the EPA report have also received radioactive waste, said seismic testing opponent Frank Knapp, president and CEO of the South Carolina Small Business Chamber of Commerce.
James W. Porter, an ecology professor emeritus at the University of Georgia, said he doubts that seismic testing could detonate long-discarded explosives. But months of constant air blasts might dislodge or disturb the weapons' rusting, deteriorating casements, Porter said.
That could send toxic contents into the ocean, endangering marine life and human life through long-term exposure. Porter said the same is true of the rusting steel drums filled with radioactive waste.
Ken Milito, director of Upstream and Industry Operations for the American Petroleum Institute, said the concerns are bogus.
"There is absolutely no evidence that seismic testing has or would have any impact on any kind of munitions," Milito said. "We've never seen that or heard of that. We think it's just another fear-mongering attempt to try to create and stir doubts about our ability to do (the tests) safely," he said.

Basil the Great (329 - January 1, 379)
Basil was born in Caesarea of Cappadocia and went to school with Gregory of Nazianzus and the future emperor Julian the Apostate. He toured the monasteries in Egypt and then founded a monastic settlement near his home with emphasis on the communal life. He wrote "Longer Rules" and "Shorter Rules" for monastic life. Basil sold his family's holdings to buy food for the poor. Basil became Bishop of Caesarea in 370, at a time when an Arian emperor, Valens, was ruling.

Fear in the Forest - The Girl with All the Gifts
29 Oct 2022Start Time: 18:15:00
Venue: Kirroughtree Forest Visitor Centre
In many ways, Melanie is just another ordinary girl. She goes to school every day, where she's grown affection for her teacher Ms. Justineau. And she's at that age where she's figuring out what's important to her, and how to navigate through the world of adults around her. But Melanie is not an ordinary girl. She will soon be a mindless, soulless zombie, a braindead creature who responds only to a desire to kill and eat people around her. Just when you thought the zombie genre was out of ideas, along comes Colm McCarthy's smart and engaging "The Girl with All the Gifts," a film with echoes of George A. Romero, Danny Boyle, and Robert Kirkman but one that also feels confidently its own creation, a unique take on responsibility, adulthood, and a new chapter in evolution.
Director: Colm McCarthy
Stars: Gemma Arterton : Glenn Close : Paddy Considine
Runtime: 1 Hour 51 mins
Certificate: 15
The film will be shown outdoors on our large LED screen. Please bring your own chair or blanket to sit on and dress appropriately for a late October evening.

Fellowship Hall rededication seeks to preserve Wrangell history
April 5, 2023
Martha Jager was a pillar of the Wrangell Salvation Army community around the 1970s and '80s, swelling the church's numbers and supporting its cause when the floors were covered in shag carpet and the chapel walls had wood paneling.
The Alaska Native woman had a welcoming personality and was deeply committed to her church community - so committed that the Martha Jager Fellowship Hall is named in her honor.
Jon and Rose Tollerud did not know Jager personally - by the time the pair arrived in Wrangell, she had already passed away and they do not know for certain when she died. But they do k...

Preparations for this year's Split Pride have come to an end, and we have the details!
The Split Pride procession will commence on its regular route on Saturday, June 24, 2017. The gathering will begin at 17:00 and at 18:00, the procession will take off from Đardin and continue onto Ulica kralja Tomislava, Marmontova, and across to the Riva and Pjaca where the Pride flag will be raised for the fifth time, reports Dalmatinski Portal on June 17, 2017.
This year's Pride is organized by the United Split LGBTIQ scene, consisting of several associations and enthusiasts including Rišpet, Flomaster, queerAnarchive and Bitcherin. The event this year will be held under the slogan "Our Colorful Story." The purpose of the gathering is to highlight the many problems LGBTIQ people face in Split every day.
"Problems surrounding LGBTIQ individuals in Split and Croatia are challenging and painful. They represent the object of everyday struggle and fear. For our fellow citizens we wish, therefore, to tell our story. We want you to know, loud and clear, just how difficult it is to be a gay person in Split," says Mirta Barić from the Bitcherin Initiative, who added that they do not expect a higher turnout than in previous years.
"There won't be too many people, but we still expect that there will be many supporters," Barić added.
Le Zbor from Zagreb will perform at Pjaca and again after the procession returns to Đardin. There is a planned DJ program until 22:00, after which the party will head to Kocka where the fun will continue until the early morning hours.
"The LGBTIQ community in Split is active and is rich in its specifics and differences. The program of this year's Pride, therefore, encompasses cultural and artistic activities, workshops and events that we want to present to the various elements of our subculture. We hope this project will illuminate and bring our struggles, fears, and values within the community closer together. We hope Split will listen to our story," the organizers said.
It is still unclear which famous characters of Split will join in the procession. Mirta Barić says that they will ask the new mayor at the beginning of next week, along with everyone else.
"This year, everything happened last minute because we had financial problems. No one supported us, but we managed to make everything happen and organize the event," added Barić, who does not expect any problems at this year's event.
"A large number of policemen who secure the procession will undoubtedly affect whether someone decides to create a mess or not, but I also think that people are getting used to it. Split was not ready for the first Pride, but over time the city has become accustomed to the word 'Pride' itself and the notion of the LGBT community. Pride represents something less scary and unknown, and thus they are less destructive and unwilling to react to it," concluded Barić, who hopes that things will move smoothly and that less of a disarray means more acceptance.

A second period of server instability in the past month is plaguing Lord of the Rings Online, even as Standing Stone Games said that it is trying to resolve the issues. Frustrated players have taken to Twitter, Reddit, the forums, and even Change.org to make their voices heard.
One player started a petition to "Ask SSG to make better servers," an effort that has garnered 252 signatures as of the time of this writing.
Issues appear to be continuing on Friday morning, with some people unable to log in at all. One player, who logged in to do tasks, had this to say about the experience: "10+ times disconnected from server, rubberbanding, lost connection in under 10 minutes."
Another player summed up the mood of the room with this statement: "Please get it together. It's been a really frustrating month with you guys! You offer no compensation to your subscribers and vague explanations."
Yesterday, SSG issued a statement on the problems, saying, "The game worlds are experiencing periods of server instability due to external issues outside of our control. We are taking steps to mitigate these environmental and infrastructure challenges, and apologize for any issues you encounter."
When asked to deliver more transparent reports of the issues, SSG Community Manager Jerry Snook said that it was a bad idea: "Besides opening yourself up to all sorts of issues as a business entity, you are then committing to that level of detail every time you have an extended outage. Let's say a technical answer along those lines would throw an employee specifically under the bus, or a valued contractor you intend to do business with long-term. Even if technically accurate, it would be bad precedent to set."
Later in the thread, Snook went on the defensive, saying, "This is not my first rodeo. If people don't like me, fine. I may be incompetent for a million different things, but if I am not saying something, there is probably a reason. I assure you that we would like this resolved as quickly as possible. We do care, and that is why we are here."

Quick Buying For Back Seat Air Mattress For Car
Below are some essential factors you need to consider while choosing the best air mattress for the back seat of your car. Let's discuss them one by one.
Like regular latex and foam mattresses, airbeds also come in different sizes, and you have to select one wisely after keeping the size of your car's back seat and the space it has in front of it in mind.
You can disregard the space once as you can set the mattress by adjusting the car's front seat, but you may have to regret it later if you buy one without measuring the seat's size.
Some air mattresses are specially built for specific cars and trucks. It is possible that they don't fit in your completely, but all our suggested air mattresses can easily fit in any sedan, hatchback, SUV, truck or even in RVs.
Polyvinyl Chloride, better known as PVC and Thermoplastic Polyurethane, aka TPU, are the two most common materials used to manufacture air mattresses. But if we compare these two, TPU is slightly better than PVC but expensive also.
However, the majority of car airbeds are made of PVC that too its softer version, which is comfortable enough for sleeping, but only if you use it occasionally. Otherwise, it can cause severe back pain.
In this factor, we have got two options: single-height and double-height. Double height blow-up beds are best for home purposes, and single height is more than enough for camping or hiking.
The double-height mattresses can go up to 20 inches high from the ground after inflation, and the single height airbeds can go up to 8-10 inches.
But for the car's back seat, if your airbed raises 4-5 inches high after inflation, it is more than enough to give you a highly comfortable sleep the whole night.
It is worthless to spend money on something that cannot fulfil your needs, and in this case, some of the needed components you should be looking for with your inflatable bed are pillows, foot piers, electric pump, carry bag etc. Here, the price decides whether they will be included with your bed or not.
Inflatable car airbeds price starts from 25 dollars and can go up to 100 dollars depending on the brand, material type, size and like I mentioned, what it includes?
Cars beds that come under the price range of 25-35 dollars usually don't include essential items such as inflatable pillows or an electric pump for inflation and deflation.
The bed, which come in between 35-70 dollars, includes everything you need, whether it is the pump, pillows, storage bag, balance support, front-seat protection, repair patches, and some even come with a built-in headboard and footboard, to give you a real bed-like feel.
In the price range of 70 or more than 70 dollars, you can expect an extra-large airbed on which 2-3 people can sleep simultaneously. They are made of large RVs such as pop up and travel trailers.
Ease of Use & Maintenance:
Blow-up beds are lightweight, portable and very easy to use. All you need to do just unfold and inflate it. But, remember to turn off the pump at the right time, or it can be burst.
They don't require any type of maintenance. But, it is crucial to keep it away from sharp objects, and it would be best if you keep your pets away from it.
If your air mattress got burst because of any reason, you could repair it on your own with the help of some patches that always comes with the bed itself.
Some low-quality airbeds don't come with any warranty or come with very little warranty, 2-3 months.
So, always check the warranty of the air mattress you are going to buy. It should have at least 1 year of warranty. The more the warranty, the better it is for you and your mattress.
How do you sleep comfortably in the back seat of a car?
Generally, the car's back seats are not that large on which one can sleep comfortably. That's why it is good to use a car bed for that.
And sleeping on the air mattress inside a car is simple. Just inflate it, and you are good to go. We have mentioned a quick car bed inflation guide below. You can read it.
But, if you don't have any option left except sleeping on the car's back seat without an airbed, you can follow these steps.
- Park your car in a quiet place.
- Adjust the front seats.
- Take a pillow, put it on the back seat, or use your hands if you don't have a pillow.
- Now, lie down on the seat. Maybe you need to fold your legs as the seats are not that long, or you can open the window and hang your legs outside, but it is not safe.
- Don't forget to lock the doors from inside.
How to inflate an air mattress with the car?
Inflating an air mattress with a car is a simple and straightforward process. Let's discuss it step by step to keep it quick and clear.
- Take out your air mattress from the box or cover, and put it on the back seat of your car.
- Unfold it slowly. Make sure you are unfolding it properly, i.e., the quilt side should be on top; otherwise, you may have to face problems while turning it after the inflation.
- Now, it's time to use the pump. So, take the nozzle, connect its one end to the pump, and insert another end into the mattress valve.
- Your car should have a charging port on its dashboard. So, put the pump's cord into that cord and let it inflate completely. It can take up to 30-40 seconds (Adjust the car's front seats if the mattress doesn't fit properly).
Who sells air mattress for car backseat?
Many brands provide the best quality back seat blow-up mattresses for cars and trucks in an affordable price segment. Some of them are Hiraliy, KingCamp, Onirii, Berocia, Olivia & Aiden, Active Era, Goplus, Kawachi, Haitral, FB SPORT, and WEY&FLY.
If your blow-up bed belongs to any of these brands, you can thoroughly rely on it.
In The End:
It is essential to do a little research about the product before spending your hard-earned money on it, and in this guide, we have mentioned everything you need to know while buying the best back seat air mattress for your car. So, make sure you read it carefully, considering all your requirements, budget, and most important thing, seat size.

Key Takeaway:
- Strict adherence to endangered species legislation is crucial in the practice of spearfishing: Spearfishing must be carried out with careful consideration to regulations, especially those regarding endangered species, to ensure these species are protected and populations are sustained.
- Certification programs exist for spearfishers: These programs provide education and training on responsible and sustainable spearfishing practices, including knowledge of endangered species and their habitats, to help spearfishers operate in the most environmentally sound manner.
- Collaboration among conservationists, policymakers, and spearfishers is necessary to ensure that endangered species legislation is effective yet still allows for the continued practice of spearfishing: By working together and finding mutually beneficial solutions, these stakeholders can better protect endangered species while also protecting the cultural significance of spearfishing.
Ever pondered the bond between spearing fish and endangered species rules? This article dives into the connection between the two and its implications for our environment. Discover why protecting endangered species is so crucial and why spearing fish needs to be done with caution.
Understanding Endangered Species Legislation
The Endangered Species Act is an administration that safeguards listed plants and animals in the U.S. and its territories. The policies of this act push conservation, habitat protection, and the recovery of imperiled species to prevent extinction. State agencies and other partners are key for their efficiency and nationwide consistency through interagency cooperation, an ecosystem-based approach, and peer review.
Section 9 Prohibitions forbid the harm of these species, aiding their conservation efforts. There are also candidate conservation and voluntary prelisting conservation activities, critical habitat designating, and recovery programs. Tribal participation is encouraged, with financial assistance available for their contributions.
The Ecological Services Program of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service uses state and private landowners, non-profit stakeholders, and local communities to work towards interconnected habitat protection and restoration. The program endorses accessibility requirements under the Rehabilitation Act.
Litigation such as Bennett v. Spear, Kandra v. United States, and Pacific Coast Fedn of Fishermens Assns v. the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation have been filed regarding water use, farming, power generation, navigation, flood control, recreation, and conservation efforts regarding threatened and endangered species.
This act is a vital public program tackling extinction risk and focusing on species recovery. It issues permits for activities that may affect these species after going through a biological opinion. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation use this legislation to balance the rights of upstream users during drought conditions, addressing the needs of downstream users and environmental groups.
The Negative Impact of Spearfishing on Endangered Species
Spearfishing can cause harm to endangered marine species. Laws and regulations, like the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species, work to protect listed and threatened species. Fisheries should also use an ecosystem approach to keep marine biodiversity. To make sure conservation measures are effective, expenditure reports must be published for transparency. Private landowners, especially in areas like Baileys Crossroads, must also help.
The DOI and its bureaus, like the Wildlife & Marine Resources Section, can suggest protection measures. In cases such as Pacific Coast Fedn of Fishermen's Assns v. U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and the Hoopa Valley Tribe, biological opinions have been used to work out how irrigation impacts protected species.
All stakeholders, including the National Marine Fisheries Service, must work together to achieve conservation objectives and balance societal and economic needs.
Regulations on Spearfishing for Endangered Species Protection
Spearfishing is a popular recreational activity. But, to protect endangered species, there are regulations. Fishermen need to know federal and state laws about listed species, or they could get fined.
The Wildlife & Marine Resources Section has guidelines and recommendations for recreational fisheries and conservation. The Pacific Coast Fedn of Fishermens Assns v. U.S. Bureau of Reclamation case supported these standards.
Private landowners should consider their role in conservation. They need to understand regulations that apply to their property. It's important to stay informed and get more info to support responsible and sustainable spearfishing practices.

Sustainable Alternatives to Spearfishing
Spearfishing as a recreational activity has come under scrutiny lately. It can be damaging to vulnerable marine populations. But, there are alternatives to spearfishing that allow us to still enjoy the ocean.
Voluntary pre-listing conservation actions can help protect marine species. Private landowners can protect habitats and work towards sustainable practices. The Wildlife & Marine Resources Section offers information standards to follow. This ensures that alternative activities to spearfishing don't hurt the environment.
By embracing these sustainable alternatives and conservation efforts, we can secure the future of our oceans.
Enforcement of Regulations
The meeting of spearfishing and endangered species laws has been a debatable matter lately. The Wildlife & Marine Resources Section has put in place rules to make sure the lawful and sustainable practice of spearfishing.
Private landowners can help these objectives by doing voluntary prelisting conservation measures which support the protection and resurgence of endangered marine species. With proper protections, spearfishing can be a great way to manage fish populations.
The spearfishing community's support can also be vital for the success of these preservation attempts. When spearfishers stick to regulations and use responsible fishing actions, they show their dedication to protect the marine environment. This encourages trust and collaboration between conservation organizations, government bodies, and the spearfishing community. That way, they can make sure there's a lasting future for the sport and endangered species.
Balancing Conservation and Cultural Traditions in the 21st Century
The conflict between spearfishing and endangered species legislation is a highly polarizing issue. Balancing conservation and cultural traditions in the 21st century is a must. The government has enforced strict regulations on spearfishing. But, voluntary pre-listing conservation actions have an important role to play too.
One such action is the endorsement of private landowners to conserve habitats of endangered species. They can mitigate human activities' effect on the environment by protecting endangered species habitat on their property. With the Wildlife & Marine Resources Section's endorsement, they can make a vital contribution to conservation efforts.
Legislation alone is not enough to protect endangered species. It takes government, private landowners, and communities working together to manage and conserve endangered species habitat. Therefore, balancing conservation and cultural traditions in the 21st century must be done through collaborative and proactive conservation efforts that focus on the preservation of endangered species and their habitats.

I have not been quiet about how harem anime just doesn't do it for me anymore. Even if I go back in time and think of all the anime I enjoyed, I realize I only tolerated them because the plot was good. In hindsight, the harem subplot itself was a negative. Because the protagonists for most of these anime are so painfully boring that they add virtually nothing to the plot. And yet, for some reason, I'm supposed to believe they are the male character everyone is in love with?
Harem protagonists are so bland in the first place because that makes it easier for the viewer to project themselves onto the character, considering there isn't much of a personality to overtake. It's wish-fulfillment, plain and simple. Imagine having self-esteem so low that you watch shows where you can pretend to superimpose yourself on some guy with a gaggle of women around them. But, sadly, that's partially why the industry is still thriving.
I'm not saying you can't or shouldn't relate to a character. Characters with shared experiences are such an integral part of any story; being able to empathize with their struggles is the point. But there's a difference between seeing your trauma reflected in character versus wanting to be a character simply because he has a harem of waifus to service him at every beck and call.
That's not to say all harem are inherently bad. Normal harems can be fun and nuanced, if their protagonists have a developed personality that isn't just an empty 'cool guy' shell for someone to project themselves on. I mean, just look at Ryuji Takasu from ToraDora!, who was the farthest thing from 'edgy and cool'. So how did we go from endearing and engaging main leads in the harem to whatever we have going on now? Let's discuss.
Table of Contents
The NEET Issue: How Did It All Start Out?
So, we all know the joke about how anime was a hobby for basement dwellers. And that stems from a modicum of truth. We all know how the word Otaku has been reclaimed, but in actuality, it was akin to a slur in Japan. An Otaku was someone who was obsessed with something, and it was used in a very derogatory manner.
And slowly, it became synonymous with anime and NEETs (Not in Employment, Education, or Training). And Japan is very strict about that sort of thing, where if you are a social hermit, you are further isolated and shunned. So, when you're alienated by the real world, you turn to the fantastical one. You start idolizing caricatures of what you think other people would like and mimic what is, essentially, exaggerated stereotypes.
This is how the rise in wish fulfillment anime such as harem and Isekai truly had its start. There was a market there to sell a dream that didn't exist to the ones most vulnerable enough to buy into it. And the easiest way to do that was to create anime male leads that those people could project themselves onto.
Harem Protagonists VS The World:
I'm not saying incels are the reason harems exist. But it wouldn't be too far from the truth? There is something about the fantasy of having multiple women be in love with you, no matter what fault you commit. It's a power trip for many.
I mean, look at what the setting normally starts from. The main character is a regular guy and/or a loser from the real world, but when he's Isekai'd, he turns into this super cool and edgy hero who is adored by everyone around him for his amazing intellect and power. Oh, and he's miraculously hot now too. Also, all the villains hate him for being so amazing. All the ladies love him despite his awkwardness or because of how smooth he is.
It's easy to lose yourself in a fantasy like that. That every woman in your local vicinity will be in love with you if you act a certain way and if you show them shallow attention. Or sometimes, the complete opposite, which is where you act with mean authority towards them. In either case, the protagonist is bland, almost formulaic, and they bring nothing to the show.
Why Reverse Harem Is An Exception:
To be fair, things have started shifting ever since anime became more global, thanks to the advancement in distribution and production all over the world. Because the audience is evolving, so are the anime genres. This means that we are getting stories that touch upon political/cultural issues, fewer censorship laws, and, yes, more relatable stories that cater to a wider audience.
But it's also how we are getting a rise in anime that are reverse harems. And for some reason, reverse harems always have a more fleshed-out protagonist compared to their male-centric counterparts.
They are their own person, not blank canvases to project on. And perhaps that's because the main audience for them is mostly women, and the female gaze tends to be less objectifying.

Comparison of HHC and THC
HHC is slightly less psychotropic than THC and may not provide as strong a "high" for some users. A very low amount of THC is converted to HHC as cannabis's natural process of breaking down.
These two cannabinoids look almost identical structurally, with THC having a double bond at the top ring structure. This is not present in HHC.
This difference makes the compound longer-lasting and more stable than THC and alters how it binds with receptors in the body. This cannabinoid has a similar potency to THC and is about 80% more potent than THC.
Comparison of HHC and CBD
CBD is not psychotropic, unlike cannabinoids. CBD is psychoactive. This means that it causes molecules in the brain and body to react but doesn't cause intoxicating effects.
CBD does not bind to the CB1 or CB2 receptors of the endocannabinoid systems, but it increases receptor sensitivity for endocannabinoids and internally produced cannabinoid-like molecules. We know more about CBD than we do about HHC and its pain-relieving and antiemetic effects.
What is HHC Flower?
A HHC Flower product blooms only in the presence of pure water. It is also known as the "Atlantean Rose" or the "Oracle Bloom."
The HHC Flower is a rare and beautiful flower that has been prized by many cultures throughout history. If you are lucky enough to find one, it is sure to be a cherished addition to your collection.
A Comparison of HHC and CBN
These are two minor cannabinoids that can be found in the hemp plant but in very low concentrations. CBN can also be a byproduct of THC's natural degrading process as the hemp flower ages.
CBN does not have any psychotropic properties. This is the main difference. CBN is almost impossible to get high from, unlike HHC. This cannabinoid, however, is well-known for its relaxing properties and ability to help people sleep.
Can HHC be Detected in a Drug Test?
The presence of HHC on a drug screen is not yet known. It is possible that it does not register on 12-panel drug tests. This could be because it isn't THC and doesn't break down in your body the same as THC. THC is broken down into its primary metabolite, 11 hydroxy-THC, which is what drug tests detect.
This claim has not been supported by any studies. We don't know if the substance will leave any evidence in your blood or urine, hair, saliva, or saliva. However, we recommend that you avoid it if your employer has drug testing. It's frequently mixed with THC derivatives such as delta 8 or delta 10. You can learn more about HHC Flower by visiting ATLRx.
Is HHC Cannabinoid Legal?
HHC is an HHC-related delta 9 THC, but it has a significant legal advantage delta 8 couldn't dream of: it isn't THC.
Legally, HHC is very similar to delta 8 THC. The substance is made of hemp-derived CBD by hydrogenation and infused in many products. It's not clear if this cannabinoid, which was created in a laboratory using cannabis and other non-cannabis substances, is synthetic or natural.
The 2018 Farm Bill legalized hemp and all of its derivatives at the federal level, except when they are found in products containing more than 0.3% delta-9 THC. Although HHC doesn't contain THC, it is still illegal because it was lab-produced from CBD under pressure with the help of a catalyst.
This could mean that both synthetic and natural compounds were involved in the creation of HHC, which could lead to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA imposing a ban on this substance. Although HHC is similar to delta 8 THC in some states, it has not been detected.
This cannabinoid, if found illegal, will be treated at the same level federally as delta 9 THC. Users who use it will be subject to the same penalties as those using delta 9.
How does HHC feel?
HHC is similar to THC and can be used in the same way.

While your resume and interview answers play a key part in whether you'll get the job, so do references. Employers use these to verify details, ensure there are no discrepancies, and fill in any gaps of information.
The right references can secure the offer, while the wrong ones can sabotage it. To help you choose wisely in the process, here are some tips to keep in mind.
Tip #1: Use managers.
Employers don't want references for only those you worked alongside. They want references primarily from those who managed you. This will give them the most insight into your performance, strengths and weaknesses, and whether you're the right fit for the job. So think carefully about which past managers will paint you in the best light during a reference phone call.
Tip #2: Review the job description.
What are the most important traits or abilities for the role? Outline two or three and then choose references who can verify that you have these skills.
For instance, if problem-solving is a key part of the job, then think about a past boss or colleague who can discuss specific ways you solved problems. The more relevant that your references can make your background, the better your chance of getting the offer.
Tip #3: Go outside of paying jobs for references.
If, for instance, you served on the board of a charitable organization, then an individual you served with might be the ideal reference for a certain position. The same goes for any consultant or pro bono jobs you've performed.
Tip #4: Customize your references.
You might submit different references depending on the specific position. For instance, if a past project you worked on with a colleague is highly relevant for one employer – but not necessarily others – just submit the individual for that particular job. You don't have to provide the same list of references to every employer.
Tip #5: Prepare your references.
Before listing someone as a reference, ask for their permission. Once you have it and you've submitted their name and contact information, prepare them for the call. Explain details about the job and why you think you're the right fit. If there are any specific projects, accolades, or skills you'd like them to discuss, be sure to let them know.

3 thoughts on "Art from Mark Young"
These are wonderful and thought provoking. I almost think of them more as "compositions" . . . maybe in the way Kandinsky meant the word when he used it to describe some of his own work? I don't know. I'm one of those laypersons that just knows what they like. Or what they love. And I loved "At Home with Lucille Ball."
These are great, Mark! My favorite is "Rodeo Drive".
All are beauty of art! symbolic.Nicely figured.

Can Soccer Referees Wear Sunglasses?
Soccer referees may sometimes have to officiate games when it's extremely sunny. But can soccer referees wear sunglasses? This guide has the answers.
Soccer referees are not allowed to wear sunglasses under any circumstances when officiating games unless prescribed by a physician. However, exceptions may be made for prescription tinted or colored lenses. For such cases, the glasses should be made of impact-resistant and safe materials.
We aim to provide readers with accurate, helpful and trustworthy information. In light of this, we follow a robust content creation process, which entails exhaustive research, combined with expert interviews. Therefore, we can always guarantee you that the information you are getting from our guides, articles, and various other content pieces is more than credible.
Soccer referees are tasked with making sure that the game runs smoothly at all times. They have to make the right decisions at all times, regardless of the weather conditions. To achieve all these things, soccer referees have to see correctly and make a good judgment. As you may expect, this may sometimes be a challenge, especially when the sun is shining brightly on the pitch. So, can soccer referees wear sunglasses? We have the answers.
Soccer Uniforms Standards
U.S. soccer referees are expected to act professionally at all times. Also, they are required to dress professionally, whenever they are out on the pitch refereeing a soccer game.
To this end, the U.S Soccer Federation (USSF) has laid down certain uniform standards, to which all soccer referees must adhere to. If you are a soccer referee, then you are expected to adhere to the following uniform standards.
USSF Referee Shirt
Soccer referees should wear a yellow-colored referee shirt. The shirt can be long-sleeved or short-sleeved, depending on your preferences. If you are wearing any undergarments beneath the shirt and they are visible, then these undergarments should be black. Furthermore, the undergarments should have no logos, designs, stripes, writing or any decorations that may be visible outside your referee shirt.
USSF Referee Short
The official USSF referee shorts should be predominantly black with no designs, writings, stripes, or decorations of any type, except the official USSF logo, sponsor logo, manufacturer's logo or any other approved logo. If you opt to wear compression-style shorts beneath your referee shorts, then the shorts should be predominantly black. Also, the compression or bicycle shorts shouldn't be longer than the official USSF referee shorts.
USSF Referee Socks
Socks are also part of the official USSF referee attire. Just like the shorts, the socks also should be solid black, featuring two horizontal white stripes. At the same time, they shouldn't have any unapproved writings, markings, logos, or decorations. Referees are allowed to wear extra socks under their official referee socks, for extra support or comfort.
USSF Referee Shoes
Soccer referees are also required to wear the right set of shoes when refereeing a game. Just like other items of the referee uniform, the shoes should be predominantly or solid black. Their laces should also be solid black. The USSF also requires you to keep your shoes in clean and decent condition.
USSF Referee Badge
Your uniform should also bear the official USSF referee badge. The badge should bear the current certification year. Also, it needs to be properly attached to your official referee shirt. However, no sewing stitches or pins should be visible on the badge.
Additional Gear and Accessories
Soccer referees are also allowed to wear a black wrist watch or a stopwatch. Ideally, you should have two stopwatches. One for starting and stopping during the game and the other one for maintaining a running time, if you forget to start or even restart the other one. You are not allowed to wear a stopwatch around the neck. The USSF prohibits soccer referees from using cell phones during game time.
Also, referees are allowed to have two whistles, in case one develops issues in the middle of the game. You are also allowed to have writing instruments, tossing coins, a notebook, water, energy bars, rubber bands, and sunscreen.
Can Soccer Referees Wear Sunglasses?
The USSF also allows referees to wear optional garments, for windy, cold, hot, rainy or sunny conditions. These garments include undershirts, compression shirts, sweatshirts, rain shirts and wind shirts.
Referees are also allowed to wear rain pants, wind pants, track pants, or sweat pants. Also, USSF soccer referees may wear gloves, ear warmers, yoga pants and baseball caps.
If you decide to wear any of the allowed optional garments, you should ensure whatever you are wearing is predominantly or solid black. Also, it should be free from any visible decorations, designs, writings, or any unapproved markings.
And this brings us to the question, can soccer referees wear sunglasses? Soccer referees are not allowed to wear sunglasses under any circumstances when refereeing any games, be it an MLS game, or a division 2 game. However, exceptions may be made for some referees for prescription tinted or colored lenses. For such cases, the sunglasses should be made of safe and impact-resistant materials. Also, the glasses should be secured to the head via a sturdy strap.
Reasons Why Soccer Referees Shouldn't Wear Sunglasses
As we've highlighted above, soccer referees are not allowed to wear sunglasses when officiating a game, unless they are prescription lenses. The reason behind this rule is that refereeing with sunglasses poses several risks and dangers.
As you may probably know, soccer is a high-impact sport. And, there's always the risk of crashing with a player, falling or crashing against a hard surface like a billboard or the advertising boards.
And when this happens, the lenses or the frame may break, causing serious eye injury. Furthermore, you may also end up injuring the players with the sunglasses, if they come off your face or crash with a player during the game. Due to these risks, the USSF prohibits referees from wearing sunglasses when officiating a soccer game, unless prescribed by a physician.
Key Takeaways
- USSF requires referees to adhere to the official referee uniform
- Referees are allowed to wear optional items when officiating during inclement weather
- Referees are not allowed to wear sunglasses, unless prescribed by a physician
- If you are allowed to officiate with sunglasses, then they should be made of impact-resistant, safe materials and properly secured to the head

Hi friends. This is a true story that happened to me a few weeks ago. We have a dog, Samoyed. This is dog that is used to be very smart, but one day I was very surprised. It was raining outside, the weather was so cold.
We made a nice tiny house for our dog. But guess what? The Samoyed refused to live in the house and stayed outside on the rain. What a stubborn dog. I was very annoyed of the way it acted. So, I was thinking about how to help. So, I took one umbrella and hide my poor dog under the umbrella. I am still thinking what's the reason for refusing such a nice tiny wooden house made with love?

Insiders at failed Signature Bank of New York sold more than $100 million worth of stock in the company in the three years prior to its collapse last month, according to a new report.The insider sales were not widely known previously because they were disclosed to regulators in a manner that is unusual for companies of Signature's size, the reported on Tuesday. Of the insider stock sales, about half were done by three key executives, according to the Journal's analysis: Chairman Scott Shay, CEO Joseph DePaolo, and chief operating officer Eric Howell.On March 12, Signature was seized by federal regulators and placed in receivership, following a run on deposits triggered by the collapse of days earlier. SVB and Signature became the second- and third-largest bank failures in US history, after only the collapse of Washington Mutual at the height of the 2008 financial crisis. Signature's Chairman Scott Shay, CEO Joseph DePaolo, and COO Eric Howell were responsible for about half the $100 million in insider stock sales over the past three yearsSignature Bank was among a small number of FDIC-insured lenders that embraced cryptocurrency wholeheartedly, and the company's stock price rose dramatically in 2021 following surge in Crypto market markets.Most of the insiders sold their 2021 shares in the spring at around $220, and prices continued to rise, peaking at $366 in January 2022.It is not illegal for company executives to buy and sell shares of their own companies, and many key execs receive much of their compensation in the form of stock.However, to avoid violating insider trading laws, they cannot make trades based on material, non-public information about the companies they oversee. Most use pre-defined trading plans, which automatically execute trades based on factors such as price and trading volume, and disclose the trades to regulators.Most companies of Signature's size disclose insider trades to the Securities and Exchange Commission — but Signature reported the trades to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.According to the Journal, Signature was one of only two companies in the S&P 500 that did not file its insider-trading transactions directly with the SEC. The other was First Republic Bank, which was rescued from disaster last month by a $30 billion deposit by a group of large banks. Most of the insiders sold their 2021 shares in the spring at around $220, and prices continued to rise, peaking at $366 in January 2022 Signature was one of only two companies in the S&P 500 that did not file its insider-trading transactions directly with the SEC Due to a regulatory anomaly, executives at banks that do not have holding companies file transaction forms with the federal banking regulator instead of the SEC. Shay, DePaolo, and Howell could not be immediately reached by DailyMail.com, and declined to comment to the Journal.The SEC did not immediately respond to a request for comment. A spokeswoman for Flagstar Bank, a unit of New York Community Bancorp which agreed to take over Signature's cash deposits, had no immediate comment. Separately, the SEC and Justice Department are reportedly probing insider stock transactions by executives at SVB before its collapse. Massachusetts regulators have also opened an investigation into sales of company stock by top executives at First Republic Bank. Meanwhile, JPMorgan Chairman and CEO Jaime Dimon, who spearheaded the industry rescue deal for First Republic, warned in a shareholder letter on Tuesday that the banking crisis isn't over.'The current crisis is not yet over, and even when it is behind us, there will be repercussions from it for years to come,' Dimon wrote in a 43-page annual message covering a wide range of topics. On March 12, Signature was seized by federal regulators and placed in receivership, following a run on deposits triggered by the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank days earlierDimon said storm clouds are still threatening the economy, and the banking system is under renewed stress after the failure of Silicon Valley Bank and Credit Suisse's rescue by UBS last month.'The market's odds of a recession have increased,' Dimon wrote.
'And while this is nothing like 2008, it is not clear when this current crisis will end.' 'It has provoked lots of jitters in the market and will clearly cause some tightening of financial conditions as banks and other lenders become more conservative,' he added.Even so, it is unclear whether the disruptions will slow the consumer spending that powers the US economy, Dimon wrote.

Derbyshire hit back against Middlesex on day one
Derbyshire 265: Viljoen 60, Harris 4-68, Helm 3-46
Middlesex 45-3: Robson 15*
Middlesex (3 points) trail Derbyshire (2 points) by 220 runs
South African fast bowler Hardus Viljoen rescued Derbyshire with the bat on a keenly contested opening day at Derby.
Viljoen (pictured) scored his first 50 for the county as the home side recovered from 167 for 7 to 265 and then reduced Middlesex to 45 for 3 at the close.
Ravi Rampaul and Duanne Olivier claimed their maiden wickets for Derbyshire as Max Holden and Robbie White went cheaply before Viljoen removed Hilton Cartwright.
Despite bright sunshine, it was no great surprise after so much recent rain that Middlesex elected to bowl but their seamers, with the exception of Tim Murtagh, lacked consistency before lunch.
Murtagh had Luis Reece brilliantly caught by Ollie Rayner at second slip in the seventh over but Ben Slater and Wayne Madsen played well until Slater left one from Harris that moved in to take the off-stump.
Cartwright had Alex Hughes caught behind off the last ball of the morning but it had still been a good session for Derbyshire although the picture quickly changed after lunch.
Billy Godleman drove a cut Harris for consecutive fours but was beaten by some late movement and Madsen was defeated by Murtagh's inswing before Gary Wilson mistimed a pull to mid-wicket.
But Viljoen and Tony Palladino grew in confidence against an attack that was without Toby Roland-Jones after lunch because of slight soreness in his back.
Viljoen became increasingly assertive and raced to his first half century for Derbyshire by dispatching Rayner for three sixes from five balls before Harris claimed his fourth wicket when Palladino was caught at second slip on the stroke of tea.
Helm was hooked by Viljoen for a fourth six but the paceman wrapped up the innings off consecutive balls courtesy of two more catches by Rayner.
Derbyshire's total looked even more competitive when Holden edged a loose drive at Ravi Rampaul and the quality of Derbyshire's bowling forced Sam Robson and White to fight for survival before Olivier claimed his first wicket for the county.
Only 22 runs were scored in 13 overs, 11 of them extras, and the pressure told when White followed one that swung away to be taken at third slip.
Robson was determined to see his side through to stumps but Cartwright was lured into edging a drive to second slip as Derbyshire ended the day on top.
