Dry body brushing helps shed dead skin cells resulting in smoother and brighter skin. It also stimulates blood circulation and lymphatic drainage.
The traditional Ayurvedic dry massage is called garshana. The ideal time to dry brush is in the morning before showering.
Previously, I had suffered from rather dull skin on my body due to the build up of dead skin cells. This has truthfully aided in stripping away the aforementioned resulting in a softer, more youthful complexion. The texture of my skin feels truly different in the best of ways. Incredibly pleased with my purchase!

CHEYENNE – The Wyoming Economic Development Association is starting a new mentoring program. The idea is to educate and train new economic developers while encouraging communication and creating positive working relationships with veterans of the trade.
New business leaders will learn about current trends and challenges that might be affecting their communities, while discovering some of the opportunities available to bolster their local economies.
"Our mentors will share a wealth of knowledge and experience, we will all talk about best practices and theories," said Jody Shields, principal consultant at Cheyenne consulting firm Align. "This is very economical in terms of training, and we will be able to share resources."
The mentorship program is also going to focus on professional leadership growth and community development.
Each month, mentors and mentees will use an article, video or other information to launch a discussion about different topics.
Those topics will range from how to partner with local, state and federal agencies to start projects and what is involved in workforce development to expansion strategies and helping local entrepreneurs.
The Economic Development Association developed the program from responses to a fall assessment asking about the strengths and weaknesses in various economic development areas. The study also gauged interest in becoming a mentor or mentee.
The initial program will have 10 mentor and mentee matches.
Building a network of economic developers will help new professionals to the field help their communities more effectively.
"Especially if you are in a small, rural community, sometimes it can be lonely. Knowing where to go and who to call can be difficult. This program gives you somewhere to reach out and gives you a chance, rather than spend years developing relationships, to dive right in." – Align's Jody Shields.
Participants must be Wyoming Economic Development Association members. To join the association, call 877-322-5446 ext. 9001 or email email@example.com.
The Wyoming Economic Development Association is a nonprofit professional association dedicated to providing resources, networking and lobbying efforts on behalf of its 200 members and organizations.
The first mentorship program meeting coincides with the Feb. 10 Wyoming Economic Development Association 2016 Winter Conference.
The Winter Conference features presentations on local infrastructure issues, advice on speaking with lawmakers, available resources for business owners and a breakdown of what companies are looking for when they decide to relocate.
Nationally-known site selection expert Joe Sharkey is among the keynote speakers at this year's conference. Sharkey will talk about the importance of infrastructure like water, broadband and electricity in recruiting companies.
More than 100 people are expected to attend the conference.

Meal planning, timing may affect CHD risk, related risk factors
Click Here to Manage Email Alerts
Meal frequency and timing have an effect on CHD and related risk factors, according to a new American Heart Association scientific statement.
Marie-Pierre St-Onge, PhD, associate professor of nutritional medicine at Columbia University and chair of the group that wrote the statement, and colleagues provided a summary of the current scientific evidence on when and how often people eat and the effects of eating patterns on risk for MI, obesity, diabetes and other factors.
"Meal timing may affect health due to its impact on the body's internal clock," St-Onge said in a press release. "In animal studies, it appears that when animals receive food while in an inactive phase, such as when they are sleeping, their internal clocks are reset in a way that can alter nutrient metabolism, resulting in greater weight gain, insulin resistance and inflammation. However, more research would need to be done in humans before that could be stated as a fact."
Breakfast skipping
Skipping breakfast was associated with poorer cardiometabolic health across several studies.
According to one study, 74% of people who skipped breakfast did not meet two-thirds of the recommended dietary allowance for vitamins and minerals vs. 41% of those who ate breakfast. The study also showed that young adults who skipped breakfast were more likely to have a greater total energy intake from added sugars vs. those who ate breakfast.
Skipping breakfast also is associated with higher BMI globally, St-Onge and colleagues wrote. For example, a meta-analysis of 19 studies (n = 19,108) in the Asian and Pacific regions showed the group with the lowest frequency of breakfast consumption had greater prevalence of overweight or obesity vs. the group with the highest frequency of breakfast consumption (OR = 1.75; 95% CI, 1.57-1.95).
Studies also have shown that breakfast skipping is associated with impaired glucose metabolism, greater risk for diagnosed type 2 diabetes and higher risk for CHD and CVD, according to the researchers.
Individuals who ate breakfast daily were less likely to have elevated serum LDL, low serum HDL and elevated BP, St-Onge and colleagues wrote.
"On the basis of the combined epidemiological and clinical intervention data, daily breakfast consumption among U.S. adults may decrease the risk of adverse effects related to glucose and insulin metabolism," the researchers wrote. "In addition, comprehensive dietary counseling that supports daily breakfast consumption may be helpful in promoting healthy dietary habits throughout the day."
Meal timing and frequency
Studies also have shown that greater frequency of eating is associated with lower risk for obesity. In one study, participants who ate at least four times a day had an OR for obesity of 0.55 (95% CI, 0.33-0.91) vs. participants who ate three or fewer times per day, after adjustments for age, sex, physical activity and total energy intake.
Related studies also have shown that greater frequency of eating is associated with lower mean total cholesterol and LDL, according to the researchers.
Late-night eating has been associated with a greater risk for poor cardiometabolic health, St-Onge and colleagues wrote. For example, a Swedish study found that late-night eaters were more likely to be obese (OR = 1.62; 95% CI, 1.1-2.39) vs. non-late-night eaters.
"The impact of meal timing, particularly related to the evening meal, deserves further study," the researchers wrote. "Epidemiological findings suggest a potential detrimental effect of late meals on cardiometabolic health, but clinical intervention studies, which would address causality, have been limited in scope and too diverse to draw definitive conclusions and make recommendations."
Recommendations for further study
Because of the wide variation between definitions of meals and snacks across the studies, the researchers made recommendations to maintain consistency.
"On the basis of the current information, we propose that eating occasions be defined as any eating/drinking episode providing at least 210 kJ and that 15 minutes should be the minimum amount of time elapsed between separate occasions," the researchers wrote. "Distinguishing between meals and snacks should be left to the participant's discretion. This will provide a definition that accommodates different social norms and cultural behaviors."
The researchers also made recommendations about what interventions may be beneficial.
"Although more direct translational research is still needed, these data suggest that intervening on meal timing and frequency may be beneficial," the researchers wrote. "By focusing on meal frequency and timing as an intervention target, patients may directly address poor dietary quality without the need to deal with calorie restriction to promote weight loss."
More data are needed to understand how intermittent fasting and eating speed may have an effect on weight and CHD risk factors, St-Onge and colleagues wrote. Additionally, special populations were underrepresented in the available data. The researchers recommended studies include considerations for racial/ethnic disparities in obesity and incidence of CVD, as well as children, adolescents and the elderly.
"We suggest eating mindfully, by paying attention to planning both what you eat and when you eat meals and snacks, to combat emotional eating," St-Onge said in the release. "Many people find that emotions can trigger eating episodes when they are not hungry, which often leads to eating too many calories from foods that have low nutritional value." – by Cassie Homer
Disclosure: St-Onge reports receiving grants from the NIH. Another researcher reports consulting for Nestle, speaking for the North American Menopause Society and the American Institute of Cancer Research and receiving research grants from the American Diabetes Association and the University of Illinois at Chicago.

How to Get There
The pool is comfy and obviously a very dominating feature of the whole hotel.The hotel`s beach scene is quite a walk away and consists of a few cheap plastic seats at a boring quiet part of the beach and offers no bar service. The food buffet is OK, but not fantastic.
The 10 minute complimentary foot massage was very relaxing.
The taxi service in the hotel unfortunately was NOT very friendly and very expensive, so we found our own way back to Recife.
Up on the "northeast corner" of Brazil, closer to the equator, it's usually a pretty decent temperature. We visited in June, winter in Brazil, and it was great. Dodged rain 2 or 3 times - and it only lasted half an hour or so. Staff is attentive, food is GREAT, and the pool is just like the pictures, absolutely beautiful! The children's program is very well supervised - the kids love it, and the parents have free days and evenings (at no extra cost). The photography sessions offered (not pushed....) are well worth it. If you can find the right airfare, Brazil is a better deal that Hawaii. Super food, great people and somewhere you'll never forget. This resort is popular with Brazilians and Europeans - one can get along with English and a smile, just like about anywhere. We're headed back at Christmas - Santa arrives on a jet ski...................
Nice hotel with perfect pool for families!
The bungalows close to the water are clean and large.
The english and french help at the reception was perfect to us,finally not only Portugese, thanks to Mayara,Priscilla and Paulo. ????

Helicopter Misses Landing Pad, Goes Down In Hudson River
NEW YORK (WCBS 880) — A charter helicopter went down in the Hudson River after missing a helipad on Manhattan's West Side Wednesday afternoon.
Police say the helicopter, which was operated by BLADE, slipped in the water near West 30th Street and the West Side Highway.
UPDATE: a helicopter fell short of the landing pad on West 30th street and Hudson River. The pilot is out of the water and the helicopter is secured. Please avoid the area. pic.twitter.com/oDRQrccrNx— NYPD NEWS (@NYPDnews) May 15, 2019
Dramatic video captured the moment the helicopter crash landed into the river approximately 150 feet from the helipad.
"The pilot had just refueled at the West 30th Street heliport and as he was attempting to leave and reposition the helicopter to land again the pilot said he felt the helicopter come down into the water," NYPD Assistant Chief Steven Hughes said.

The 34-year-old pilot was the only person on board the aircraft at the time.
"He was able to deploy his flotation device, he was able to get out of his helicopter and stand on the pad, there was a passing boat that picked him up and brought him into the heliport," Hughes said.

Authorities say the pilot suffered a minor injury to his left hand and was treated at the scene. A dock worker slipped while attempting to get out of the way of the helicopter and injured his wrist.

CBS2 producer Cat Lund was on the bike path along the West Side Highway, as the chopper splashed down
"I heard a helicopter take off but then I heard a load, like kind of a boom sound and then I look over at the helicopter and it looks like its starts spinning out of control," Lund said. "Then I saw the airbags deploy and it fell in the water."
Relieved to report there were no deaths or serious injuries after a helicopter incident on the Hudson river. Thank you to our first responders for your quick action.

Did Hollywood know just what it had in Marcel Dalio? He fled the Nazi occupation of France not terribly long after giving one of the greatest performances in film history, as the Marquis de Chesnaye in Renoir's La régle du jeu...and once in the city of nets, largely played a series of croupiers and concierges and the like. (Okay, he got to play Clemenceau in that ultimate white elephant movie Wilson.)
Of course he made a particularly spectacular croupier. And managed to play different types of croupiers, even. In Casablanca, playing Emil, he was tentative, harried, easily flustered, always trying to please his cynical but strangely beneficent master Rick Blaine. (You'd never guess that his real-life self was at the time married to the ravishing Madeleine Lebeau, who played Yvonne, the gorgeous would-be conquest of Captain Renault. Who is of course saved from Renault's clutches via a Blaine-directed manipulation of the roulette wheel. [UPDATE: As commenter Vanwall points out, I've got my babes mixed up, and Yvonne is in fact the "where were you last night?" castoff of Rick himself. The point stands, kind of, but I regret the error. Serves me right for creating a post at such an ungodly hour.]) And in von Sternberg's The Shanghai Gesture, made a little before Casablanca, he is ice-cold, imperious, as Marcel, "master of the spinning wheel," one of the many agents of the downfall of poor little rich girl Poppy Charteris (the incredible Gene Tierney). Gesture, an ineffable exemplar of "sadistic cinema," is given a longer look today at The Auteurs'; a recent video version of it is the subject of today's Foreign Region DVD Report.

The Fugitive Kind, 1960
Wild at Heart, 1989
The fact that Cage's performance in Wild at Heart strongly suggests either Brando doing an Elvis imitation or vice versa is not an accident, nor is the fact that both Wild at Heart and The Fugitive Kind use fire as a key image, nor is the fact that Sailor's beloved snakeskin jacket—"a symbol of my belief in freedom and individual choice"—is just like the snakeskin jacket Brando wore in The Fugitive Kind. The Fugitive Kind happens to be the film version of Tennessee Williams' little-known Orpheus Descending, a play which in 1960, enjoying a new vogue in the wake of Lumet's film adaptation, ran Off-Broadway in NYC and featured Bruce Dern and Diane Ladd, Laura Dern's parents, who met and married while starring in this play.
The extent to which David Lynch could expect a regular civilian viewer of Wild at Heart to know about any of these textual and organic connections is: 0; the extent to which he cares whether anybody apparently got it or not is apparently: also 0.
—David Foster Wallace, "David Lynch Keeps His Head," A Supposedly Funny Thing I'll Never Do Again, 1997
The funny thing is, Wallace, in conversation, actually rated himself pretty low on the cinema/performing arts erudition scale...even while pulling out and putting together such ingenious tidbits. I remember discussing this passage with him and disagreeing—just a tiny bit!—with him about the extent of the deliberateness of what ended up a multi-textual reference in the film...mainly on the grounds that Lynch's whole process wasn't/isn't post-modern like that. Well, how then to deal with the overt Wizard of Oz references in Wild, he countered. Well, yeah. Just askin'...
A new, beautiful, supplement-rich DVD of Kind is coming out next week from Criterion, and it deserves your attention. I'll be writing more on it when I can; the next few days are gonna be jam-packed with stuff that's gonna limit my blog output.

"Factory Song," Skeleton Crew, Learn To Talk (1984)
Back when this musical proponent of virtuosity-filtered-through-deliberated-rawness was just the incredible two-one-man-bands of Fred Frith (left) and Tom Cora. (They added another multi-instrumentalist, Zeena Parkins, for their second album, The Country of Blinds.) The sound (and the head) was an amalgam of art-rock, Eastern European Folk, Woody Guthrie, the Goons, and much much more. No doubt Frith had heard critic Robert Christgau's complaints about his former group Henry Cow's putative agit-prop being academic; ensconsed on Manhattan's Lower East Side for much of the early '80s, he redefined his music to fit his reality while all the time staying himself. As for Cora, what a passionate madcap and fount of musical—and comedic—creativity. At one Crew CBGB gig he played cello and a mini-drum kit simultaneously, all the while taking bites out of an apple he had stuck to the hi-hat's pull rod. Cora died of melanoma in 1998. Frith soldiers on, teaching at Mills College and continuing to make amazing music; his latest project is the group Cosa Brava, his first rock combo in quite a while, featuring Parkins among others; its debut album Ragged Border is just out and highly recommended.
"Drop That Sack [Common Take]" Louis Armstrong, The Complete Hot Five And Hot Seven Recordings (2000)
If you haven't heard by now, well, take it from an embittered, pride-hurt you-know-what-critic: Louis Armstrong invented modern popular music, and in the '20s, with his "Hot" bands, is when he started doing it. You can hear him in everything that came after him if you listen hard enough. And besides that, he's just a joy to listen to for his own sweet self. And he was the greatest trumpeter.
"Laugh, I Nearly DIed," The Rolling Stones, A Bigger Bang, (2005)
A rather shockingly fine latter-day Stones album, don't you think? This track in particular carries strong intimations of the best parts of Goat's Head Soup. Sure, Jagger doesn't mean a word he sings anymore, but he's making a very professional effort.
"Bang, Bang Rock & Roll," Art Brut, Bang, Bang Rock & Roll (2005)
"I met a little girl/She sold me a pill/It tasted like shit/and it made me ill./Watch my body twist and jerk/I just wanna find/a drug that works."

This morning indieWIRE posted a report on the official announcements, thus far, concerning the Cannes FIlm Festival lineup this year. Some observations from where I sit:
* At the moment, despite the presence of new films from Abbas Kiarostami, Bertrand Tavernier, and Apichatpong Weerasethakul, the competition looks a lot less interesting than does Un Certain Regard.
* And why might that be? For me, it has quite a bit to do with never caring if I see another film by Alejandro Gonzales Innaritu again. And that goes maybe double for Nikita Mikhalkov. There, I said it.
* At the moment it looks pretty unlikely that I'll be going this year, and if'n I don't, one of the things I'll miss is the Cannes ritual, established with the premiere of Match Point, of getting into silly, low-temperature arguments about whatever ultimately insubstantial Woody Allen picture is making its debut there.
* What makes Un Certain Regard so interesting? A new Lodge Kerrigan, a new Hong Sangsoo, a new Cristi Puiu, a new film either partially or fully by Godard, that sort of thing...
I'll be continuing in this vein over at The Auteurs' tomorrow, for Topics, etc., and I'll make it my Oulipean challenge there to not bring up Tree of Life, maybe...

Crossing the "River Indus", a Fairy Tale Journey
The newly established 25th District of Khyber Pukhtoonkhwah "Tor Ghar (The Black Mountain) was visited for assessing the needs of the people. It's a mountainous region covering area of 454 Sq Km with a population of 300,000.
During the visit an amazing journey took place. The area is divided into two parts by River Indus and there are boats which are the means of transportation from crossing to other side and approaching markets. The people usually travel via boat as it takes less time to reach other destinations. From one side by jeep we travelled for 55 minutes to reach the assessing area, while returning via boat took only 15 minutes. The biggest Dam of Pakistan called Tarbela Dam is situated very near to Tor Ghar on Indus River.
Viewing the river from above seemed that it's a calm and steady water flow. However when the journey is started it took us by surprise. In the middle of Indus the water was coming with enormous speed and the up and down flow made we appalled. The person who was driving the boat ensured us that he had the control and there is no need to be afraid. After crossing the middle deeper part the water became steady and the journey was then became pleasant.
The Indus is covered from both sides by the mountains and it seemed that we are characters of a fairy tale going on a mysterious journey with panic and serene times. It was a unique experience of crossing the river Indus in Tor Ghar.

The 37th annual conference of the Association for Baha'i Studies will take place in Irvine, California 15-18 August 2013. This year's theme is "Learning in Action: Scholarship and Generation of Knowledge."
The conference will focus on the nexus between learning and action – how Baha'i scholarship underlies and contributes to the process of social and cultural transformation.
"Knowledge is central to social existence," says the Association in its theme statement. "Every human being has the right to access to knowledge and to participation in its generation, application and diffusion."
Read the full theme statement and call for proposals here.
Founded in 1975 as a result of the commitment of a diverse group of interested participants, the Association for Baha'i Studies has, through the support and encouragement of the Baha'is and Baha'i institutions, expanded far beyond its original mandate. The Association is a cooperative effort of the National Spiritual Assemblies of Canada, the United States, and Alaska. The Centre for Baha'i Studies, located in Ottawa, Canada, coordinates the activities of the Association in North America and serves as a centre for research, instruction, and information.
The Association holds annual meetings, international conferences, and special seminars and symposia. In addition, it sponsors regional conferences across North America, which provide further opportunities for scholars to present the results of their research and exchange ideas.

There are many intrinsic difficulties that will come with trying to copy nature's palm oil. Several were mentioned in an opinion article published by the Malay Mail. The article was written by Datuk Mohd Khairuddin Aman Razali, Malaysia's Minister of Plantation Industries and Commodities, and Datuk Kalyana Sundram, CEO of the Malaysian Palm Oil Council.
The article questions whether synthetic palm oil will have the same robust nutritional profile as natural palm oil, and if mass production of synthetic palm oil can be as environmentally friendly as sustainably produced natural palm oil. This is especially important given the millions of tons of natural palm oil produced and consumed annually throughout the world.
A tremendous amount of research, as well as experience, exists related to understanding natural palm oil including its biochemistry and numerous health benefits. Razali and Sundram issued an open invitation towards collaboration in any palm oil-related opportunity that aims to bring betterment to humanity as a whole.
We are your resource for information on the health and nutritional benefits of Malaysian palm fruit oil and palm fruit oil bioactives. We provide breaking news and industry research, including the exciting potential for supporting cardiovascular and neurological health.

Dear friends,
Happy spring, and belated Happy Earth Day!
I hope this finds you safe and well – with some space to enjoy this wonderful spring nature is gifting us with at this challenging time.
I just wanted to share that for the next week (until the end of April), my first book, "Mindfulness and the Natural World" will be available as an e-book for free to download here. (in the UK only I'm afraid!)
This is a gift from me to support us all in nurturing our connection with nature during this challenging time for the world. It could be a great time to have a read if you have the space and time… so why not download, sit back and find a nice quiet spot in your garden or by the window in the sun? 😉
I'd love to hear your thoughts and reflections on the book too if you do get a chance to read it. And do share widely with your friends and family. 🙂
Remembering our innate belonging to the natural world feels vital at the moment for than ever (and always, of course).
Wishing you all lots of peaceful, supportive and reassuring times with the natural world in this stunning spring weather,
Take care of yourselves and each other,
Claire x

text: NEWS Fogerty Returns To Fantasy 9/9/2005 FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Although his bitter legal battles with Fantasy Records are the stuff of music business legend, John Fogerty has signed a new deal with the label. Although his bitter legal battles with Fantasy Records are the stuff of music business legend, John Fogerty has signed a new deal with the label. Fantasy, which issued the entire recorded output of the Fogerty-led Creedence Clearwater Revival in the late 1960s and early '70s, was purchased in November 2004 by the Concord Music Group. In celebration of the reunion, Fantasy will on Nov. 1 issue the first Fogerty career retrospective, "The Long Road Home." A live DVD, to be recorded Thursday (Sept. 15) at Los Angeles' Wiltern Theater, will be released early next year. A new solo studio album and other projects are also in development."I'm very happy to be back in touch with a part of myself," Fogerty says. "It's surreal. For 35 years, I never thought I'd be reunited with the music I wrote during the Creedence Clearwater Revival years... I'm happy to say that the new Fantasy is very enthusiastic about my body of work. All the people there have been delightful. They are honoring my songs that hold an important place in the history of American music. And, they are honoring me." After CCR split in 1972, Fogerty released one solo album for Fantasy, a self-titled 1973 set of covers under the name the Blue Ridge Rangers on which he played all of the instruments. He issued one album on Asylum, 1975's "John Fogerty," before a nine-year studio lapse while legal disputes with Fantasy played out. He returned in 1985 with "Centerfield" on Warner Bros., and last year inked with Geffen for "Déjà Vu All Over Again."Throughout his solo career, Fogerty not only battled Fantasy, but also his former CCR bandmates Stu Cook (bass) and Doug Clifford (drums) to prevent them from using the band's name. The pair adopted the moniker Creedence Clearwater Revisited in the mid-'90s for their nostalgia act, which also included former Cars guitarist Elliot Easton and singer John Tristano. (Tom Fogerty, John's older brother and CCR co-founder, left the band in 1971 and died in 1990.) Featuring 25 tracks, "The Long Road Home" will mix CCR classics with solo material, including live renditions of "Hey Tonight," "Bootleg," "Keep on Chooglin'" and "Fortunate Son" recorded while on tour earlier this year. "I've always wanted to create a greatest hits collection that represented my entire career, but it was always painfully impossible to do so," Fogerty says. "Now I can combine the Creedence songs, all of which I wrote, with my solo material. It's great that I can finally document the various changes I've gone through musically over the years without having to follow any artificial lines." Fogerty only recently began performing CCR songs again. During last year's pre-election Vote for Change tour, he played several each night, backed by Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band.The artist has been on the road this summer with John Mellencamp, with shows remaining tonight (Sept. 9) in Dallas, tomorrow in Woodlands, Texas, and Monday in Bonner Springs, Kan. Here is "The Long Road Home" track list:"Born on the Bayou""Bad Moon Rising""Centerfield""Who'll Stop the Rain""Rambunctious Boy""Fortunate Son""Lookin' Out My Back Door""Up Around the Bend""Almost Saturday Night" (live)"Down on the Corner""Bootleg" (live)"Have You Ever Seen the Rain?""Sweet Hitch-Hiker""Hey Tonight" (live)"The Old Man Down the Road""Rockin' All Over the World" (live)"Lodi""Keep On Chooglin'" (live)"Green River""Deja Vu (All Over Again)""Run Through the Jungle""Hot Rod Heart""Travelin' Band""Proud Mary""Fortunate Son" (live) FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME

Norwich city centre car park may be ordered to close
PUBLISHED: 09:28 12 May 2010 | UPDATED: 16:24 01 July 2010
The owners of an illegal car park in the city centre which has been open for five months could be forced to shut it down after a council meeting this week.
The owners of an illegal car park in the city centre which has been open for five months could be forced to shut it down after a council meeting this week.
A retrospective planning application has been received by Norwich City Council for a 150 space car park on land at the corner of St Saviour's Lane and Blackfriars Street in Norwich, but it looks set to be refused by the planning committee.
Permission for 52 apartments, six town houses, four live/work units and 203 square metres of office space was granted in October 2009, but although buildings have been demolished on the site, nothing has been built and the permission will expire in October 2011.
The application from SGA Parking Ltd is for the use of vacant land for public car park for up to 18 months, installation of an attendant's cabin, installation of lighting and provision of bins for waste collection. It would be open from 7am to 10pm from Mondays to Saturdays and 9am to 5pm on Sundays.
Although no letters of objection have been received by the council, officers have recommended the application is refused because they feel the tariff levels might encourage commuting and undermine the overall transport strategy and the site does not have marked or defined disabled spaces.
There are also concerns about site security, the fact there is a poor parking surface and the fact permission may prejudice the future redevelopment of the site.
The Norwich City Council officer's report said: "The site is located within the Colegate character area of the City Centre Conservation Area. The adjacent car parks are already identified as negative features within the conservation area and the use of the vacant site for car parking would further impact on the character of the conservation area extending the negative feature."
The report also recommends the council to: "Authorise enforcement action to secure the cessation of the unauthorised use and the taking of legal proceedings, including prosecution if necessary."
Dilip Agarwala, the agent for the applicant, was unavailable for comment.
The application will be discussed by the planning committee on Thursday, May 13.

Starter Package: All Categories
Do you have a product that you would like to order from a supplier on Alibaba.com? Ordering from Alibaba.com might seem like a simple task but a quick search on Google or the Alibaba forum proves the opposite.
This article provides you with a step by step guide to ordering from Alibaba.
Step 1. Sourcing products on Alibaba.com
There are three ways to source products at Alibaba. Product Search, Supplier Search or by posting a Buying Request. The Supplier Search is the latest Alibaba search option and in my opinion superior to the other two, below I explain why.
Option A: Product Search
Type in a product name and you'll get anything from 500 to 500,000 results. That's a lot of products, but it doesn't really say anything about the suppliers behind these products.
Option B: Supplier Search (Best Practice)
You still type in a product name, but instead of a list of products you'll get a list of suppliers that make your product. This comes with a large benefit – "matching products" data for all listed suppliers.
Below I explain why this matters:
a. The more matching products a supplier have, the more likely it is to be a professional manufacturer or trader of this product
b. A supplier that is highly specialized in a product is more likely to offer lower prices, higher quality, fewer quality issues and a faster production time. They are also more likely to have more knowledge and experience regarding product certification, something that's critical for European and American importers
c. The main issue, however, is that very few suppliers are compliant with foreign regulations, such as CE, RoHS and CPSIA. If you don't know which regulation applies to your product, you better hire a compliance expert. Confirmation of legal product certification requirements, labeling requirements and sourcing of compliance suppliers are also part of our Starter Package
d. A low number of matching products indicates that the supplier is a trader or other type middleman. These tend to have very limited product knowledge.
Option C: Submit an Alibaba RFQ
In theory it's a very nice feature. You provide Alibaba with information about your product, price requirements, shipping terms and payment terms.
Your Request for Quotation (RFQ) will then become available to hundreds of Gold Suppliers that can choose to respond and send you a quotation.
The downside is that some suppliers respond with copy pasted messages and attach quotations that are not even close to the product you asked for.
Step 2. Contact suppliers, request quotations and order samples
Communicating with Alibaba suppliers is hard. Many prospective import businesses give up because they simply can't get the supplier's attention. On the other hand, many suppliers are equally frustrated with buyers who cannot bother with providing clear product specifications.
A few years ago I stumbled upon a thread on the Alibaba forum that was posted by a European importer that had a hard time getting quotations from suppliers, this is how the suppliers replied:
I am a supplier too. You should inform some professional questions about your products such as your ingredient, you're packing, your country regulation, whether OEM or not.
As a supplier myself, I only reply to a specific request. When your questions are very broad, it is very difficult for supplier to understand and follow up with you. Be specific about the products that you are interested.
If you want receive relevant quotations you need to provide the suppliers with relevant and specific product information. Below I list 4 common reasons why Alibaba suppliers don't respond to inquiries:
- The buyer does not provide clear product specifications
- The buyer does not provide any product certification requirements
- The buyer does not specify whether or not they wish to order an existing product or an OEM product (Custom Design)
- The buyer does not provide any contact details
Alibaba suppliers are busy, and they get tons of enquiries every day. They know how to spot the difference between a serious importers and an opportunist that is very unlikely to buy anything.
a. Receiving quotations
When you've sent out your inquiry to 20 – 25 suppliers (we explain why here) you can expect to receive quotations from roughly half of them.
The "conversion rate" is likely to be much lower if you are not providing clear product specifications. It's important that the quotations contain the following information:
- Product images / Link to Alibaba product page
- Product Specifications
- Minimum Order Quantity
- Pricing
- Incoterms
- Export packing
b. Ordering product samples
Samples are rarely free, and even if they are you are expected to pay the air freight from China.
1. Order samples from more than one supplier.
2. Tell your supplier which product you need a sample of and how many pieces per product.
3. Tell your supplier that you expect the product sample to match the final product, unless you plan to order highly customized products that requires a mould.
4. Provide the supplier with your delivery address and ask them to declare the products as "sample items".
Step 3. Place your order
Getting to this point can sometimes take months, so by now I hope you have at least one supplier and product that's matching your quality requirements and budget.
However, never rush into an order, if a supplier raise prices or if the samples are not matching your expectations – start from the beginning or contact one of the suppliers that quoted you during Step 2.
When you decide which Alibaba supplier you shall order from, consider the following:
1. Whether or not the product samples are matching your product specifications and quality requirements
2. Pricing
3. Minimum Order Quantity
4. Supplier Communication
Even today, most payments are made outside of Alibaba's own payment gateway, Alipay. Hence, it's up to you to negotiate terms directly with the supplier.
Usually you pay 30% before production begins and another 70% before the products are shipped. We strongly discourage you from any of the following:
- Transferring money through Western Union. No serious supplier uses this payment method but it's popular among Scam suppliers since the money cannot be tracked
- Paying 100% in advance. If something goes wrong during production you'll need to give the supplier an incentive to make it up. This is much easier if you are the one holding the money, in other words the 70% balance payment
Alibaba.com has also implemented a Trade Assurance program, that will likely develop further in the years ahead.
Can Alibaba.com guarantee the quality of the products?
No. Alibaba.com is a B2B supplier directory. Essentially, they provide a databank of suppliers, together with product listings and verified information.
Just like Shopify or Amazon don't guarantee that you'll make money selling your product, Alibaba.com doesn't offer any guarantees whatsoever when it comes to quality.
It's up to you how to vet suppliers properly, and then manage the the overall process.
While a qualified supplier is a key component to successfully launch a product, 90% is all about how to manage that supplier – from sample order, to sales contracts and quality checks.
Alibaba.com provide some of the tools you need, but it's not their job to make sure your products are made the way you want them to.

News / Public Toilets
New public toilets for two of Bristol's parks
Almost two years after sweeping closures of Bristol's on-street public toilets, the council has confirmed new facilities are set to open in two of the city's parks.
People using St George's Park will now be able to spend a penny without leaving its boundaries thanks to new loos, located between the skate park and the kiosk, due to open at the weekend (Saturday, September 14).
Meanwhile, new facilities in Eastville Park are on track to be open by April next year and the current dilapidated and outdated toilets in Victoria Park are set to be upgraded, in line with potential plans to bring the Victoria Park Lodge back into use.
independent journalism
Mayor Marvin Rees announced the new openings and upgrade during a full council meeting on Tuesday, September 10. He was responding to a question from Judith Brown, the former chair of Bristol's Older People Forum, about investment in public toilets in line with recent Government funding to improve the city's parks and green spaces.
The council has not confirmed how much the new facilities will cost, or how they will be funded and no timescale for the Victoria Park facilities upgrade has been announced.
A Bristol City Council spokesperson said: "We understand the need for toilet facilities in the parks around Bristol. Toilets are already provided in ten of the city's parks and new facilities are set to open in St George's Park this weekend.
"We are also on track to deliver new facilities in Eastville Park by April next year. We recognise that the current facilities in Victoria Park are poor and in need of upgrading, so we are currently considering them together with the potential use of Victoria Park Lodge.
"Outside of the parks, there are also over 100 toilets available through the Community Toilet Scheme."
More information on the community toilet scheme is available via: www.bristol.gov.uk/streets-travel/public-toilets

South African provincial side Golden Lions have offered their full support in assisting their Cape Town rivals Western Province and the wider community after the Western Cape was hit by a drought and raging wildfire.
With water usage caps being placed by the local authority on residential and commercial properties, the Lions have opened up their Ellis Park Stadium as a bank for people to donate water to send on to Cape Town.
Water Shortage South Africa, the non-profit organisation the Lions have been working with to offer aid, commended the club's chief executive Rudolf Straeuli in providing relief to a city under 'severe drought'.
"Rudolf and his team are making a very significant commitment to sending bottled water collected from the Lions rugby supporters to the Stormers supporters in Cape Town," said a Water Shortage SA spokesman, who added that Cape Town is likely to become the first city in the world to run out of drinkable water in the years to come.
With one game remaining in the country's Currie Cup competition before it enters the knockout stages, the Lions host reigning champions FS Cheetahs at Ellis Park – a match the club expect to receive their largest donations of water since their efforts begun.
The Johannesburg-based side lie fourth in the current standings, while the Western Province in second travel to Durban to take on table-topping Sharks.

I buy a new JTAGICE3 but I have a problem with the JATAICE3 ISP Clok.
When I flash for example a Atmega16 with ISP so I go in AVR Studio to Divice Programming and choose:
--> Tool: JTAGICE3
--> Device: Atmega16
--> Interface: ISP
and then Apply, then ISP Clock is 7 KHz (see image JTAGICE3_1 and JTAGICE3_2)
I set the ISP Clock to 250 KHz (see image JTAGICE3_3) and I working fine.
When I put the JTAGICE3 turn off and turn on (disconnect and connect from USB), and then I go again in AVR Studio to the Device Programming, Interface ISP Apply the ISP Clock is back to 7 KHz!! (see image JTAGICE3_4)
Where is my mistake?

After decades in the financial industry, managing everything from trade capture to reporting, we know how quickly data piles up. Systems don't speak to one another. Data arrives inconsistently, incoherently, and in proprietary formats. Managing this endless flow of information robs people of their most valuable asset: time. Time you could spend making smarter observations, bigger insights, and better work.
We started EZOPS when we realized how machine learning and AI could streamline all the most frustrating and tedious parts of our industry. Validation, compliance, reconciliation: all these processes result in post-trade data. Ideally, this can help lead to actionable metrics and informed analysis. The reality is that teams are drowning in data, unable to put it to the best use.
EZOPS is revolutionizing the industry with software that intelligently automates repeatable actions, checks for errors, and offers insights that users might miss on their own. The goal is to supercharge your team, liberating them from the parts of the process that software can do better.

Also, be surprised if things change significantly during the beta phase. Rugster pointed out that the tests could have "additions and updates". If you have problems, you will have a rank or state reset.
What's it like to play? If you have tried, to some extent, be a familiar experience GTA online… not always in a good way.
