Two men handed death sentence in Karak terror cell case
By Rana Husseini - Feb 10,2019 - Last updated at Feb 10,2019
AMMAN — The State Security Court (SSC) on Sunday sentenced two men to death in connection with the Karak terror cell case that resulted in the death of 10 people in Karak Governorate in 2016.
In November, the SSC sentenced the two defendants to death, but decide immediately to reduce the sentence to life in prison because "the two men were young and deserved a second chance in life".
However, the Court of Cassation overturned the verdict few months later, asking the SSC to sentence the two defendants to death.
"The defendants should not benefit from any reduction in penalty because their actions caused fear, terror and chaos among the Jordanian society and tourists and caused multiple deaths," the higher court ruled.
On Sunday, the SSC adhered to the Court of Cassation's request and handed the two defendants the death penalty.
Eight other defendants received prison terms ranging from three to 15 years in prison for their role in the terror attack that also left 34 people injured.
Defendants were standing trial on charges of plotting subversive acts that led to the death of people, manufacturing explosives, financing terrorist acts and joining armed terrorist groups.
The victims included seven security personnel, two Jordanian civilians and a Canadian national.
The charge sheet said that the defendants plotted to carry out terrorist acts around Jordan and started by attacking a police patrol in Karak Governorate, 140km south of Amman, followed by an attack on a police station and a shootout at Karak Castle.
Some of the security forces were killed as they attempted to arrest some of the group's members in Karak, while the two citizens and the Canadian were killed during shootouts between the defendants and security forces, according to the charge sheet.
The verdict will automatically be reviewed for the second time by the Court of Cassation within the next 30 days.

The 1948 General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) was replaced 12/1994 by the WTO (World Trade Organization) after fast-tracking and bypassed as a non-treaty in the Senate after Democrats were shellacked in the November election.
An international bureaucracy based in Geneva manages our trade differences with tribunals usually in favor of the foreign corporation, foreign government, foreign industry.
US Taxpayers subsidize foreign governments, foreign industries, foreign corporations, developing nations through the WTO, IMF, USAID, Export-Import Bank, Job Overseas Outsourcing, Duty Free Trade, and more programs.
The term "free trade" is a fraud. The only free trade taking place is between some US States and consumers without taxes.

Back in 2010, singer Ryan Leslie had offered $1 Million dollars for the return of his laptop after it was stolen in Europe. The lost equipment was then later recovered by a man in Germany who looked to cash in on the generous finder's fee. Once returned, Leslie refused to pay the funds in argument that the music files (which were invaluable to him and the true reason he offered up such a pretty penny), were no longer present.
A judge later ruled that Leslie had to pay his reward anyways, much to the dismay of the NYC artist. The NY Post reports that Leslie only paid $5,000 of the $1 Million dollar order, and as such has had his fully loaded Cadillac Escalade seized by the New York City marshals. The vehicle was pulled back on August 8th and is set to go on auction September 9th.

RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan's strategy of widening and deepening the banking system through payment banks, India Post Bank, small finance banks and strengthening the NBFCs through appropriate regulation and facilitation deserves rich commendation for taking inclusive banking closer. But doubts still prevail over the effective reach of inclusive banking going by the laggard performance of the priority sector credit thus far.
As we embarked on a period of planning after independence, import substitution constituted a major component of India's trade and industrial policies. Planners, more or less, chose to ignore the option of foreign trade as a stimulant of economic growth. This was primarily due to the highly pessimistic view taken on the potential of export earnings.
To my mind, there cannot be any controversy or debate as to how to achieve inclusive growth. I think the experience of all developed and developing countries as well as India shows that in order to achieve inclusive growth we need to do five things.
Narendra Modi government has set an ambitious target to improve India's ranking in ease of doing business to among the top 50 in the next two years. The goal looks very difficult and ambitious because India is ranked at 142 among 189 countries in the latest World Bank's ease of doing business index. In fact, India's ranking has taken a hit in the recent years. It slipped by 11 spot in the past two years.
More than half of India's 1.25 billion people defecate in the open and more than half of the people in the world who defecate in the open live in India.
The move to establish BRICS bank is meant to provide patient money and risk capital to long term projects and not aimed at challenging the existing multilateral financial institutions like the IMF and the World Bank, the RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan has said in a speech at an event organised in Chicago on Friday by the Chicago Council on Global Affairs.
In December 1967, the then Finance Minister Morarji Desai introduced a new term for bankers, the "Priority Sector" and this term has come to stay in the Indian banking terminology since then.

Consumer goods
Better known as a leading cleaning product brand, Kärcher has launched an extensive range of garden watering products. To support this major initiative Kärcher asked InTouch to develop consumer-facing literature to promote these excellent new products to the gardening trade and in-store at DIY centres.
What we did
The 32 page catalogue was designed to showcase the range of products, based around Kärcher's own extensive research into the UK gardener's perceptions and attitudes. The finished design was expertly printed on a high quality uncoated stock by waterless printers Park Lane Press.
Added value
Waterless printing not only achieves a higher quality and more consistent result but the waterless process means a much reduced impact on the environment.
With our experience of working with the brand InTouch marketing was invited to extend the project into a consumer leaflet for use in Homebase.
Print still has the power to sell.
In a world addicted to digital communications a printed brochure is still has a valuable place in your marketing communications line up. It can create an impact that is very different to an email, for example, and in many circumstances is a much more user-friendly experience for your audience.
Print has a very natural and human feel. You can hold it in your hands, flick through the pages, stop when something catches your interest. The size and weight of a publication becomes part of the message, and the vast choice of paper stocks, printing technology and finishes available, are all opportunities to differentiate and communicate essential qualities about your brand.
Printing on paper is no longer considered bad for the environment. All the top paper manufacturers have invested heavily in developing the highest standards of sustainable paper production. More trees are planted in Europe than harvested for paper. We also work with a range of printers with extremely high environmental standards, such as Waterless print production.
You can share a book with others easily, you can pass it around or leave it on a coffee table. You can make it any shape or size; huge for major impact, small and delicate. It all depends on your brand message. Added to all of that research shows online purchases are enhanced by printed catalogues there is no substitute to turning pages!
At InTouch print design and production is still very much alive.
We still love print!

Like many of you out there we can never remember what the Costco opening hours are, so we put up this post for everyone else who needs this info! Most of the Costcos standard operating hours are identical, so we will list the main operational hours below. Something else to think about is that Costco hours for some of their specialty in store departments such as Costco optical or Costco bakeries often differ from their standard operation times. So if you intend to visit one of their specialty departments, then it is probably best if you ring up their customer service line on 1-800-774-2678 to find out their opening hours.
Standard Operating Hours
10am – 8:30pm
9:30am – 6pm
10am – 6pm
Special Operating Hours
Costco has different operating hours for certain holidays and occasions. Below you can find where these times differ.
- New Years Eve: 9:00am – 6pm
- New Years Day: Not open
- Labor Day: Not open
- Thanksgiving: Not open
- Xmas Eve: 9am – 5pm
- Xmas: Not open
Please keep in mind these the above listed times are standard hours for most branches. Some of the smaller branches out there do have slightly shorter opening hours, so please remember this. If you are unsure if your local branch is one of these then you can ring the customer service line on 1-800-774-2678 to double check.

6/12/2019 · Dating With Tinder Struggling to Get Matches? Consider that your pictures give away crucial information not just about what you look like, but also how you …
While some of the things that are happening are amusing, they're also frustrating and annoying as well. It seems like I'm seeing a pattern, and here it is: It seems like men like to talk for a bit on the dating app or online dating site, and then they will ask for my phone number. From there, we start texting.
1/1/2018 · He showed up at my house after I 'met' him on a dating app. I was freaked out. Giving a potential date your cell phone numbers turns out to carry with it a host of problems.
The other half are either taken, under-age, dinosaurs, or quite possibly octopi in human-form. If this sounds like your search for Mr. Right, an online dating site can be a safer option. That being said, online dating sites have a bad stigma for attracting desperate and socially awkward people.
It's fine if you're just a regular guy, but some guys' pictures look like they purposely planned to repel girls!

I can't say this enough, your online presence has implications everywhere in your life, not just dating.

Online photos may be the only way that people who have never met you can see what you look like.
1/12/2017 · When you're online dating, most people never look like their picture. One of the rules of thumb of online dating that I tell you all the time is that if you're attracted to the ugliest version of a person on their profile, meaning if you're attracted to the worst picture, then you may be attracted to them in person. Online dating is so much noise.
5/2/2016 · You're Worth More Than Your Tinder Matches With online dating has come other apps like Tinder. Tinder allows you to view pictures of people around you and either swipe left or right (right if you like them). If you both swipe right, then congratulations you are a match!

A Chapter 13 bankruptcy is for individuals or married couples who have some form of "regular income" available to repay debts over a three to five year period. In Chapter 13, a "repayment plan," is calculated based on the debts you owe and your financial ability to repay. You may include secured and unsecured debts. A repayment amount is determined and this amount will be paid to the Chapter 13 Trustee, Kara L. West, in Chattanooga. The Trustee pays your creditors according to the plan once per month; although you will pay according to your pay cycle. (For example, if you are paid bi-weekly, your employer will withhold your payment from each paycheck or you will be required to mail your payment directly each time you are paid.)
Why File 13?
Stop Collection Activity
Upon filing a case, the automatic stay takes effect which stops almost all collection activity. Creditors are not allowed to contact you directly by phone or in writing. They must stop all lawsuits, garnishments, foreclosures, repossession attempts and other legal proceedings. (Some exceptions apply to collection of child support, taxes and criminal fines.)
Pay Past Due Payments Over Time
If you are behind on your secured debt payments, you will not be required to make a lump sum payment to become current. For example, "mortgage arrearage" can typically be paid over a five year period. Other loans secured by your vehicle or other personal property may be paid over five years as well, regardless of your current repayment terms, and often at a reduced interest rate (typically between 5 to 9 percent). This typically lowers the amount you are paying for your secured loans, thereby allowing more money to be used to pay your other debts.
Stop Interest, Late Charges and Pay on Principal
As soon as you file a case, unsecured debt will not accrue any further interest. You will repay unsecured creditors at zero percent interest with no further late fees or over-the-limit charges. Depending on the amount of property you own outright, and based on your ability to repay your debts, you may be able to pay your unsecured creditors less than 100 percent of what you owe them. Further, creditors will have a deadline, called a "bar date," by which they must file a "proof of claim" in your case. If an unsecured creditor fails to file a claim by the deadline, you will not be obligated to repay them at all if you receive a "discharge" in your case.
Isn't Chapter 7 Always a Better Option?
Although many people believe that a Chapter 7 is preferable, many times a Chapter 13 plan offers a less expensive monthly payment than would be obtained by filing Chapter 7. As part of your consultation, Ms. Randle will present a potential plan payment so you can compare a Chapter 13 with the results of a Chapter 7 case.
Special Protections: Taxes, Child Support Arrearage and Co-Signed Debts
Some other benefits may be available to those who file a Chapter 13 bankruptcy. These benefits include a reduction or complete discharge of a second mortgage on your home, a discharge of certain taxes and tax liens and support obligations, and protection for co-debtors who owe on debts with you. Ms. Randle will review your circumstances to see if you benefit from any of these special provisions.
Mortgage Debt and Chapter 13
Although Congress is considering amending the Bankruptcy Code to give Bankruptcy Judges the ability to lower payments and/or alter interest rates for first mortgages on your primary residence, currently that option is not available. Therefore, absent a change in the law or an agreement with your mortgage company to modify your loan, you must pay your mortgage payment in full each month, even in a Chapter 13 bankruptcy.
Avoid Foreclosure and Pay Mortgage Arrearage Over Time
The main advantage of Chapter 13 regarding your mortgage(s) is the benefit of paying past due amounts over 5 years with little or no additional interest or penalty being assessed for late payments. If you are behind on your mortgage payments, a bankruptcy is the only way to stop a foreclosure absent a binding, written agreement to do so by your mortgage lender. Once you receive a discharge at the completion of your Chapter 13 plan, your loan should be current, and you will simply resume paying your mortgage according to the original terms of your note.
Hold Lenders Accountable
Chapter 13 also provides a legal avenue to hold your lender accountable for fees and charges assessed to your account over the history of your loan. Talk to Ms. Randle at your initial consult about any concerns you have about your mortgage so she can be sure to address this with the lender during your case.
Benefits from Chapter 13 Specific to Second and Third Mortgages or Liens
Potential benefits regarding second and third mortgages may be available in Chapter 13 that would not apply in Chapter 7. For example, if you are "underwater" or upside down on your mortgage — meaning your home is worth less than what is owed on your first mortgage — it may be possible to "cram down" the payment and treat the second or third mortgages or equity lines of credit as an unsecured debt. If this is possible, given your financial ability, you may be able to propose a plan that eliminates all but the first mortgage on your home upon completion of your Chapter 13 case.
Include Past Due Real Estate Taxes in Chapter 13
Please note that if your mortgage is not "escrowed," or does not include a payment for homeowner's insurance and/or property taxes, you are responsible for paying these debts during your case. You may, however, include past due property taxes in a Chapter 13 plan to be paid over time. If you are behind on your property taxes, you should advise Ms. Randle so she can include these in your case.
Further, if you fall behind on "post-filing" property taxes while in Chapter 13, you should contact the office to determine whether it is possible to modify your case and include them in your plan.
Schedule a free initial consultation at the Law Office of April Perry Randle, PLLC, in Cleveland, Tennessee (TN), by calling 423-464-6908.

Types of decoration in lacquer art: "Kashoku" (adding decorations)
Speaking of lacquerware, many people think of the pieces that have unified colors of black or vermilion with the use of lacquer.
In fact, the majority of lacquerware uses a single color and has a shiny, beautiful finish. This type of lacquerware can maximize the beauty of its shape rather than detracting from it by poorly adding decorations to the piece.
The same thing goes with ceramics. For instance, in the case of a famous traditional craft of Japan called "Bizen ware", the clay is shaped into a desired form and then fired just the way it is.
Glaze ("Yūyaku": glassy layer that covers the surface of ceramics) is not used for Bizen ware. This way, it creates the natural color of the material itself.
However, in addition to creating the sheen and hardening the coated object, lacquer also has the adhesive ability of bonding one material with the other. Making lacquerware more gorgeous by adhering powdered gold or imbedding sea shells with this special property of lacquer seems to be a matter of course for lacquerware that is made by humans.
In this manner, a variety of decorations have started being added in lacquering. Decorating lacquerware is called "kashoku" (adding decorations). Here, we will briefly touch on the types of kashoku.
The most famous decorating method in lacquer art is "makie". Makie is the technique to first draw pictures with lacquer and then highlight the pictures by scattering powdered gold or silver over them before the lacquer dries. The powdered gold or silver will only attach to the areas that have been coated with lacquer.
After lacquer dries, it will never liquefy again. Thus, once the powdered gold or silver adheres, the highlighted pictures will never vanish unless scraped by friction.
Some shellfish emit beautiful rays such as the turban shell. "Raden" is the technique to adhere tiny broken pieces of such shells onto the surface of lacquer work before the lacquer dries.
Simply put, on the patterns drawn by lacquer, if powdered gold or silver is adhered, it is called makie, and if shells are used, it is raden.
When adhering shells to lacquer in practice, the shells are first processed into a flat sheet. Then, after adhering the shells to the lacquerware, layers of lacquer are applied and polished in order to smooth out the roughness.
First, the surface of the lacquerware is engraved with carving knives. Then lacquer is rubbed into the grooves. After wiping off the excess lacquer with paper, gold or silver leaf is adhered to the engraved pattern.
After drying, only the gold leaf in the engraved part (the area where lacquer was rubbed) should be firmly adhered to the lacquer. When the excess leaf is wiped off, a beautiful pattern should appear. This technique is called "chinkin".
Hyomon/ Heidatsu
The decorating technique where a thin metal plate is first cut into a desired pattern then adhered to the lacquerware is called "hyōmon" or "heidatsu".
With the hyōmon technique, a patterned plate is created by cutting a thin plate of gold or silver. Then, this plate is adhered to the surface of the lacquerware. After adhering, lacquer is applied over the plate and polished until smooth. When the polishing is finished, a shiny pattern will appear.
The technique where a picture is created with colored lacquer is called "urushie". There are a number of lacquerware works that use red, yellow, and green lacquer preserved in China as well.
Compared to makie, which uses gold and silver, urushie can be plain, so it is said that the ancestors of the upper social classes preferred makie over urushie.
Lacquer is supposed to be coated over and over again, but each layer of lacquer is very thin. However, repeating this hundreds of times can build up a few millimeters. Creating a pattern by carving these layers of lacquer is called "chōshitsu".
Of course, the process to coat lacquer hundreds of times is quite exhausting. Today, machines can do this layering work, but long ago people used to do this by hand.
As described above, there are many decorating techniques in lacquerware. The single colored lacquerware such as black or vermillion is beautiful, but the lacquerware with distinctive personality added by using these decorating techniques has a unique style as well. There are other kinds of decorating techniques, but you should be fine as long as you understand the basic techniques described here.

Should I Trade Julio Jones?
Fantasy Team Name
igor's revenge
Proposed Trade
Would you trade Julio Jones for Desean Jackson and Randall Cobb?
Thanks for writing in. I would definitely pass on that one. Yes I am aware that the Packers are banged up at wide receiver. Yes I realize the Packers have been feeding Randall Cobb the ball but Julio Jones is clearly the most talented player in this equation and too much to give up. Even if you are in need of fantasy wide receiver depth it is still not a deal I am making. The Philadelphia offense is a dumpster fire and productivity comparable to what Desean Jackson is offering can be found on the waiver wire. If you want to trade Julio Jones wait until he explodes this week against the Saints then sell high. Even then I probably wouldn't want to deal Julio, he's very talented.
Hope this helps! Write in as much as you like for free fantasy football trade analysis!

ARLINGTON, Va. The notion that minorities have the same access to the Internet as whites is 'the most insane thing I've ever heard in my
life,' said Larry Irving, a Web entrepreneur and former assistant secretary for the Commerce Department, at the National Freedom of Information Day Conference yesterday.
Irving, who received the American Library Association's Madison Award
for his work toward increasing minority access to the Net, said that
some technology watchers were denying 'a self-evident truth' that in
many minority communities, 'the Internet isn't even a rumor.'
'Who are these people? Where do they live? I can take you to a
neighborhood 15 minutes away where kids don't have access' to the Web,
Irving said. For example, 'last year I went back to my old high school
in Queens, New York, and they had no computers.'
In the Clinton administration, Irving worked to promote policies and
develop programs to ensure access to technology. He also developed a
survey to track telecommunication and information technology access
across racial, economic and geographic lines. Now he's the president of
UrbanMagic.com, an Internet portal for African-Americans that is scheduled to be launched later this year. Former professional basketball player Magic
Johnson is a partner.
Irving said that he and Johnson wanted to 'get to people who don't think
the Net is for them.' One way is to promote free and convenient Internet
access in libraries, he said. As a child, Irving said he found his way
to a bright future through his local library.
'Libraries made a huge difference in my life. I was working class. [My
family] didn't have a lot of money, but there was a huge focus on
education an idea that we were supposed to do better than our
parents.' Irving eventually went on to Northwestern and Stanford
universities. 'If it were not for public institutions, I would not have
been able to do that.
'It was sitting in a library in Queens ... reading a book, that made me
realize there was something more that I could do.'
When he went to Commerce, Irving met with others who were interested in
increasing public institutions' technological capacity. After years of
work in the public and private sectors, 'now millions of people have
access to the information economy that they didn't have before. Seven
years ago, you couldn't go to [a public library] and see ... every
ethnicity searching the Web.'
But despite such progress, Irving said there remains a disparity
between the technological haves and have-nots. For example, he said,
whites are more likely to have Internet access at home than minorities
are anywhere, including libraries. He also pointed out that poor
whites as well blacks, Hispanics and Native Americans still don't have access to the tools of the digital age.
'Why does the digital divide have to be a black-white issue? I work for
all the people,' Irving said.
Having to debate whether or not the digital divide exists takes time
away from solving the problem, Irving said. 'We need to spend as much
time curing the disease as we did diagnosing the disease."
'I'm passionate about this because I know in my soul ... that there's
some kid sitting at a desk in a library and learning the world is
bigger. ... Imagine how much more powerful an impact the Internet can
make for that kid.'
He also criticized some researchers particularly Ekaterina Walsh of Forrester Research who have said that the digital divide is gone. He called Walsh the 'Jeane Dixon of the digital divide.'
'This year Walsh has a new thing Hispanics have access outside the home. ... But this is not equality of access. It just doesn't wash, it
doesn't fly it's offensive to anyone who cares about a democratic society. These are the things that keep me up at night."
Walsh, who did not attend the conference, later told The Freedom Forum Online:
"I've never, ever said that the digital divide was gone. It depends on how you define the digital divide.
"There is a digital divide," she said, "but it's not because of race it's because of differences in income and education levels."
Walsh, an analyst at Forrester, added, "We are not taking any political stance. These definitions (of the digital divide) come from political agendas" of those involved in various arenas of electronic communications access.

Uranium, Explained
Nuclear power has become an essential source of electricity to meet the world's growing energy demands, as it can generate power at an enormous scale, is cheaper than many other alternative fuel sources, and emits minimal greenhouse gasses. Countries seek to meet the rapidly growing electricity demand while limiting pollution, and the World Nuclear Association (WNA) expects nuclear generation capacity worldwide to increase to 482GWe by 2035 from 391GWe in 2017, representing 23% growth.1, 2
Uranium is the fuel that enables nuclear plants to generate electricity. Demand for the commodity is largely driven by global nuclear power output. Despite anticipated growth in nuclear power, and in turn, rising demand for uranium, gaining exposure to this commodity can be difficult. Uranium trades with thin liquidity on futures exchanges and there are ownership restrictions, given its usage in weapons.
The following analysis seeks to shed light on uranium by answering six key questions.
- What is uranium and how is it extracted?
- How is uranium used to generate electricity and what are uranium's advantages?
- What is the outlook for uranium demand?
- What is the status of uranium supply?
- Are uranium prices expected to recover?
- How can you invest in uranium?
What is uranium and how is it extracted?
Uranium is a heavy, dense, and radioactive metal, making it a potent source of concentrated energy. Uranium is found in most rocks in concentrations of 2 to 4 parts per million and is as common in the Earth's crust as other metals such as tin and tungsten.3 Uranium is generally recovered from the ground using open pit mining, underground mining, or in-situ leach (ISL) methods.4
Open-pit or underground mining methods collect rocks that contain very low concentrations of uranium. In a milling process, the rocks are crushed and ground into fine fragments, while water is added to create a slurry – a semi-liquid mixture. Sulphuric acid or an alkaline solution is mixed with the slurry, allowing 95-98% of the uranium to be recovered. Uranium oxide, also known as yellowcake, is precipitated from this solution. Yellowcake must undergo yet another enrichment process to make it viable as nuclear fuel.5
In-situ leach (ISL) mining is the preferred method for extracting uranium, as this approach is more cost-effective and environmentally friendly than open pit or underground mining.6 ISL involves pumping a solution called a lixiviant into the ground to dissolve uranium from the rest of the rock formation. The uranium extract is then recovered from the ore, whereby it is purified, concentrated, and dried to produce yellowcake.7
The table below highlights the major differences between the recovery methods discussed above.8.
Unlike many other commodities, uranium is not highly concentrated in a handful of geographic areas. Instead, it is found in many places around the world, as depicted in the chart below.
How is uranium used to generate electricity and what are uranium's advantages?
Nuclear power is one of the few sources of electricity that combines large scale power output and low greenhouse gas emissions, with costs that are comparable to traditional fossil fuel power stations.
Similar to coal or natural gas power plants, nuclear reactors generate electricity by producing immense heat. This heat induces steam, which propels a turbine connected to an electric motor. As the turbine rotates, the electric motor produces electricity. In nuclear power stations, however, the heat is not generated by burning fossil fuels, but rather by splitting uranium-235 atoms in the process of nuclear fission.10
The energy released through nuclear fission is thousands of times greater than the energy released through the process of burning similar amounts of fossil fuels. This makes nuclear power a very efficient method of generating utility-scale power. In addition, it means the ongoing fuel costs for nuclear power plants tend to be quite low, given the minimal amount of material needed to power the plant.
The amount of heat or energy generated from 1 Kg of different fuel types can be found in the table below.
In addition to the power density of uranium, nuclear is also among the cleanest methods of producing electricity, in terms of greenhouse gas emissions.
In terms of levelized14 costs, nuclear power is cheaper than coal and is significantly cheaper than solar thermal, biomass, and offshore wind farming. It's notable that although levelized costs are decreasing across the varying types of plants coming online, the costs associated with Advanced Nuclear plants has fallen faster since 2015 than other areas like Biomass.
What is the outlook for uranium demand?
Nuclear power contributes about 10% of the world's total energy supply and is a major source of energy in developed markets such as Europe (27%) and the US (20%).16, 17, 18 Globally, there are 57 reactors currently under construction, representing a 13% increase in nuclear electricity generation capacity. In addition, there are 152 reactors planned, representing a 46% rise in current nuclear capacity, which is largely being led by emerging economies such as China, Russia, India, and South Korea.19 Increased demand is primarily driven by countries like India and China, to contend with the dual-dilemma of massive electricity needs and increasing air pollution problems,
China, the largest market for uranium in the world, plans to increase its nuclear power capacity significantly. Currently, the country has 41 operational reactors, with another 17 under construction, and an additional 43 planned.20 Nuclear power provides just over 4% of electricity in China, leaving significant room for the nuclear energy sector in China to grow. The Chinese government intends to create 88GW of nuclear capacity, which would constitute about 15-25% of the nation's energy mix by 2020.21 The International Energy Agency (IEA) predicts that China will triple its nuclear energy capacity in the next 20 years. It forecasts that China will outpace the U.S. and become the biggest nuclear power producer by as early as 2030.22
Therefore, the demand side of the equation looks promising; UxC estimates annual uranium demand to grow 42% to over 270 million pounds U3O8 23 by 2030 from 190 million pounds U3O8 in 2016.24
What is the status of uranium supply?
Uranium supply consists of new production from mining activity and existing inventories, which is largely from decommissioned nuclear weapons stockpiles. Since 1980, weapons-grade uranium in the US and the Soviet Union has been blended down to be repurposed as reactor fuel as part of nuclear disarmament agreements. This steady flow of supply kept uranium prices, as well as mining production, artificially low.
Supply from mining production meets approximately 87% of the current uranium demand, with the remainder being met with supplies from decommissioned weapons.25 These supplies, however, are being depleted and, according to UxC, will drop to 31 million pounds U3O8 per year in 2025 from 46 million pounds U3O8 per year in 2016.26 Though this supply stream will continue to play a meaningful role in the near and medium term, its impact will dwindle over the long term, necessitating greater need for investment in new mining production to meet anticipated future demand.
Are uranium prices expected to recover?
Since late 2017, major uranium suppliers have resorted to production cuts to support the weakening uranium prices – the most notable being the cutbacks in Canada and Kazakhstan. In November 2017, Cameco Corporation temporarily suspended operations at its McArthur River mining and Key Lake milling operations in Canada. McArthur, being the world's largest uranium-producing mine, accounted for 11% of global uranium production in 2016. In July 2018, Cameco announced the extension of the McArthur River mine production cut for an indefinite period. In December 2017 in Kazakhstan, Kazatomprom – the nation's largest uranium producer – declared a 20% cut in its production targets for 2018-2020. These production cuts are expected to ease the uranium inventory glut, as Cameco and Kazatomprom together control about 38% of the global uranium supply. Aggressive production cuts and rising demand are expected to act as catalysts to burn off the bulk of uranium inventory and supporting higher uranium prices.27, 28, 29 30
How can you invest in uranium?
Gaining exposure to uranium can be more nuanced than other more commonly traded commodities, like oil and gold. One method is to buy uranium mining stocks or exchange traded funds (ETFs) that own a basket of those mining stocks. Another is to gain access to uranium futures, which trade with relatively light liquidity. Individual mining stocks can have high idiosyncratic risks, which may be mitigated to a degree by owning a broad set of uranium mining stocks from around the world. They can also be somewhat of a levered play on the underlying commodity price, given the high fixed costs associated with mining. While uranium futures offer exposure to the spot price of uranium, they can be subject to negative returns associated with contango- when the spot price of the commodity trades below its future price.
We believe investing in uranium through the Global X Uranium ETF (URA) may provide an efficient and cost-effective method for accessing a broad basket of companies involved in uranium mining around the world.

For mompreneurs who work from a home-based office, creating advanced, compelling videos that matches studio work can be a tricky task.
For mompreneurs who work from a home-based office, creating advanced, compelling videos that matches studio work can be a tricky task. With the availability of better technology and the freedom to work remotely, not only can they take care of their family but create an impactful business and career. For mompreneurs looking for an expert hand in making kick-as videos for their business, there are several other ways they can create compelling videos for their business without worrying about the quality.Easy ways for mompreneurs to create compelling video without worrying about the quality. Click To Tweet
You must be knowing that you can get a lot of mileage out of an explainer video. But, it isn't necessary for you to sit in front of the camera. You can use these easy-to-make videos for marketing your product or service on social media, help your audience understand your services or products in a better way, and you can even demonstrate it as while pitching to new investors. Videos are helpful in a lot of cases.
Not all women are camera friendly, If you belong to that lot here are some tips on how to make your video outstanding. Remember, that these would go on to your YouTube channel, website, social media accounts and other platforms so you have to be really careful in showing what you don't want.
Create a talking head video
Since you don't have a studio at home, just focus on your face. Talking head videos are one of the most common ways of presentation in business videos. The focus remains on the subject with your face on the top or bottom corners of the screen as a narrator. These videos can be used for training a new joinee, as a products tutorial, or briefing clients about your company. You can use these on your landing pages or as an intro in your social media channels.
Take help of designs
Designs are another approach to make video while staying off camera. This could incorporate anything from outlines and charts to hand portrays. Information exhibited outwardly has a greater effect than just posting it in unthinkable shape. You can find these designs online on free stock photo galleries. These seem like small animation but with the use of static pictures, charts or drawings with a voice-over running behind or subtitles surfacing at the bottom you can use them to help your audience understand your product and services.
Explainer videos
Explainer videos are short, animated videos where the characters suggest a conversation starter and after that offer an answer. Despite the fact that an issue might be tackled before the finish of the video, frequently an explainer video is an attempt to close the deal to tempt the viewer to buy your product or service. You can also take the help of experts. Like London based Spiel, which is a popular agency working in creating fantastic animated short videos and explainer animations.
Do you have item shots or photographs of fulfilled clients? Change over a gathering of important photos into a video slide appear. YouTube does it for nothing! Essentially transfer photographs from your PC, include discretionary subtitles and a voice-over.

Many Dealer's who've attempted to add live video in house or through other vendors have been frustrated by 'playability issues' of the video on various devices. VideoTell has been designed with a YouTube based window interface for displaying videos. Every type of smart phone, computer, or mobile device can play YouTube videos.
Dealership YouTube Channel, SEO & Optimized Video – The dealer's 'Live Video Inventory' will be hosted on their own YouTube Channel. This will ensure that the dealer – and not a third party or vendor service – receives the SEO value for all live video content. All VideoTells will also be 'optimized' at time of upload to the dealers YouTube channel, tagging each vehicle with distinct keywords and meta tags which will make these units findable by native searches on Google, Yahoo, Bing, and other search engines.
Superior Time to Market – NetLook's VideoTell program has been developed by our own programmers and is fully 'in house'. NetLook does not send videos to a third party to process. No 'ADDED' bus stops for your video data. The NetLook system also employs an API connection with YouTube – which means dealer videos will appear on the dealerships YouTube Channel faster.
Full Integration – VideoTell is integrated with all major sites and third parties. NetLook's programmers and Support team can develop a custom integration solution to fit your needs. VideoTell videos can also be exported to dealer CRM management systems.

The proposal, though, pertains to only LIG (low income group), MIG (middle income group) and HIG (high income group) housing estates as the state has decided not to develop new complexes under these three categories anymore.
Replying to a question by Trinamool Congress MLA Bankim Chandra Hazra at the House, housing minister Sovan Chatterjee on Tuesday said, "The government has decided not to develop new flats under LIG, MIG and HIG categories. Hence, it will sell the existing flats. The government officials and staff who reside in the housing estates can now enjoy ownership of their respective flats if they agree to pay the amount fixed by the government. We are also giving the same offer to the former employees, who are still residing in these housing estates, as well as to those who are not the authorized residents," said Chatterjee.
"We don't intend to evict anyone. That's why we are extending the opportunity to even those who are not the lawful residents of the apartments," added Chatterjee. The department is currently calculating the price. The minister has also assured that the prices would be affordable.
A source in the housing department said, "The government is losing revenue. In most cases, rent of these LIG/MIG/HIG flats are very low. The maintenance of the housing estates is done by the government. While the return is minimum, a lot of money is pumped in for its upkeep. It's hitting the government coffers."
Some of the rented apartments will, however, be kept outside the purview of this. Even, co-operatives can be formed to avail the opportunity. "Once the price is fixed and notice issued by the government, the entire amount has to be paid within 180 days. Else, the occupants will face eviction," an official said.

Food safety after a flood
September is National Preparedness Month. It is also our annual Prepare Kansas online challenge. Prepare Kansas 2016 will provide tips on keeping food safe in emergency situations. This year's program will be conducted through the K-State Research and Extension Facebook page. No registration is required, so Kansans and anyone interested in planning ahead for emergencies can follow on Facebook and this blog at any time during September, pick up handy information and interact with K-State extension specialists and agents. Today's post is written by Londa Nwadike, State Extension Consumer Food Safety Specialist for Kansas and Missouri.
After a flood has devastated your home or business, there are many things to be considered, one of which is food safety. Flood water should generally be considered as contaminated, as it is difficult to determine what it has contacted on its way to your property. Water from floods can be contaminated with sewage or animal waste, as well as heavy metals or other chemical industrial contaminants, all of which can be hazardous to human health if consumed.
If you are not sure if the food was directly exposed to flood waters or not, it is safer to throw out the food: "If in doubt, throw it out". This KSU publication contains a more complete list, but in general, if any of the following food items are exposed (or even if potentially splashed with) flood waters, they must be thrown out, even if they would be cooked before consuming, as heavy metals and chemical contaminants are not removed by cooking:
- Food items in your refrigerator and freezer
- All foods in boxes, paper, foil or cloth, including cereal, juice, and powdered milk
- Spices and seasonings
- All home canned foods, since the area under the seal of the jars cannot be properly disinfected
- Any food and drinks in containers with screw-caps, pull tops and crimped caps, including salad dressings
- Flour, grain, sugar, coffee and other staples in canisters
All undamaged commercially prepared foods in metal cans and "retort pouches" (such as shelf stable juices) can be kept, but must be thoroughly washed and disinfected. This KSU publication has detailed instructions on how to clean such cans and pouches for safety.
As with many situations, it is very important to wash your hands with clean water (not flood water) after your hands come into contact with flood water. More information on handwashing is available in this blog post.
Kitchen utensils and pans exposed to flood waters must also be evaluated for safety. All metal pans, ceramic dishes, and metal utensils (such as can openers) can be kept, but must be thoroughly washed and sanitized according to instructions available in this KSU publication. Wooden and plastic utensils, baby nipples, pacifiers and any other porous items used with food must be thrown out since any contaminants present cannot be completely cleaned off.
Don't wait — communicate
The Prepare Kansas online challenge* takes place each year during September. September is also National Preparedness Month (NPM). The month finishes big on September 30 with a national day of action, National PrepareAthon! Day.
One of the challenge tasks for Week 1 is to complete a family or workplace communication plan to use in the event of a disaster and communicate the details with everyone who needs to know about it.
If you aren't sure what to include in your plan, check out this information and the resources at ready.gov
We've also posted some helpful links here on the blog.

Two minute drill
If your home were on fire, how long do you think you would have to escape? A recent survey by the American Red Cross found that most of us think we will have about five minutes to escape a burning home.
Experts agree that we actually only have about two minutes to escape before it is too late to get out.
Take these two simple steps that can save lives:
1) Check your existing smoke alarm — if you don't have a smoke alarm, install at least one on every level of your home. Check local codes for specific requirements in your community.
2) Practice fire drills at home. Fewer than one in five families with children under the age of 18 have actually conducted a home fire drill. Practice periodically until all members of the family know how to get out of every room and can do it in two minutes or less.
Not sure how to plan or practice a home fire drill? Watch this video and learn more.

While reading Jonah Berger's book Contagious, I came across a simple sales-psychology concept called the Rule of 100.
As consumers, we are always looking for a great deal. Whether it's through a sale, a discount code, a special promotion or even by haggling, we're always driven to pay the lowest amount possible for the product or service we want.
From a business perspective though, how do we make our offering seem like a great deal? Our customers are bombarded with endless "special offers" every time they visit a shop or website, so how can we make our special offer stand out from the crowd? According to Berger, one simple way to help do this is by how you frame the deal's information, and it's known as the Rule of 100.
Some offers are communicated by "absolute" (or numerical) discounts, such as €15 off or €150 off. Others are expressed as "relative" (or percentage) discounts, like 5% off or 50% off. You might not think it, but how a promotion is framed does in fact influence how a discount is perceived by the buyer.
Let's go through an example: you walk into your favourite clothes shop. Two t-shirts are on sale. Both are marked as €20, however one has an extra discount of 25% off and the other has a discount of €5 off. Which one sounds like a better deal to you?
Here's another example: you're in the market to buy a new laptop. Two identical models are for sale at €2000. One has an extra discount of 25% off while the other has a discount of €500 off. Which one sounds like a better deal to you this time around?
Both discounts are exactly the same monetary wise, however to buyers they don't feel the same psychologically. One feels bigger than the other. Berger explains "Researchers find that whether a discount seems larger as money or percentage off depends on the original price. For lower priced products [such as t-shirts], price reductions seem more significant when they are framed in percentage terms. For high-priced products [such as laptops], however, the opposite is true."
So, in order to figure out which discount frame will seem larger to your customers, you should use the Rule of 100. If your product or service costs less than €100, the Rule of 100 says that percentage discounts will seem larger. If your product or service costs more than €100, the opposite is true. "It's all about how you frame a deal to make it more enticing." Berger says.
Simple, right?

Just wanted to get some opinions on what might be some emerging/non-traditional ways to deal with 2 phases of a Mars mission where communication between Mars and Earth would be suspended for a brief period.
Little bit of background: A communications "blackout" occurs once every 2 years when the Line of Sight between Mars and Earth is blocked by the Sun.
A "whiteout" occurs when the Earth is between the sun and Mars and too much solar radiation may make it impossible to communicate with Earth.
Some options that have been thrown around are setting up L4 lagrange point relay satellites and putting a satellite in an orbit that would coincide with the blackout duration to enable LOS communication for that period exclusively...
I'm a university student looking into this stuff with no prior experience and I would appreciate any creative input on how to deal with this problem and how to justify a solution with supporting calculations (link budget analysis? orbit simulation?)
For context : I'm trying to design a communication system between Mars and Earth to support future inhabitation of Mars

Small businesses are always faced with problems before they'll declare success. Time and Cash are two crucial to your online business. This protects the new business a lot of money.
