At Corinthia, we always strive to provide the best rates on our website. If you don't think we have, we'll pay for 100% of your room on the first night, and price match the rest. Should you find a lower price elsewhere, please submit a claim within 24 hours of your original booking and we will respond within two working days. Please note, this also applies to discounts and promotions available on Corinthia.com.
Process for making a claim:
Step 1. If within 24 hours of a confirmed reservation with Corinthia Hotels made on Corinthia.com, you find a lower rate for the same hotel, room type, inclusions, stay dates, discounts and payment conditions, please contact the relevant email address from the list below to make your claim. All claims must be made within 24 hours of the original booking and at least 24 hours prior to the standard check-in time of the hotel.
Step 2. Your claim should be supported by the URL where the lower rate was found and a screen shot which clearly displays the date of stay, room type, same hotel, inclusions and payment conditions of the lower rate offering on the competing website. Please include your contact information (name, email and phone number).
Step 3. If we are able to verify that the lower rate found qualifies for the Best Rate Guarantee, and all other terms and conditions are met, Corinthia Hotels will pay for 100% of the room charges of your first night, and will price match the room for the rest of your stay. You will be charged for all nights booked at the matched rate, minus the first night which will be free.
To make your claim, email the relevant hotel on one of the following:

The cancellation and advance purchase policy and all other terms and conditions of the stay must also be identical. If the claim refers to a reservation consisting of several nights' accommodation, the average rate for each night will be compared to the average rate for each night, for an identical reservation, using the website where the lower rate is found.
5. Corinthia Hotels will verify the lower rate claim and respond within two working days of the claim being made. *Claims will be processed from Monday to Friday, between 9am to 5pm, at the hotel's local time.
6. The rate comparison will be made net of any taxes, gratuities or any other fees or charges associated with the room rate, and the lower rate must still be available at the time the hotel validates the claim.

11. The Best Rate Guarantee does not apply to rates found offline, negotiated corporate rates, group or MICE rates, opaque provider rates or rates requiring membership in a club or other organization, governmental rates, direct mail or email solicitations, rates offered by providers that do not supply the name or location of the hotel until after a reservation has been made or other rates that are not available to the general public. We reserve the right to deny a claim if the availability of the Competing Rate cannot be independently verified at the time of processing the claim.
12. The Best Rate Guarantee does not apply to packaged rates. Packaged rates include Hotel accommodations sold as part of a travel package in which the Hotel does not provide all services (including but not limited to airfare and/or car rental, tours etc.) and Hotel accommodations sold with additional amenities.
13. Corinthia Hotels may deny a claim where the difference between the rates is less than 1%.
14. If the Competing Rate is in a different currency from the rate booked on corinthia.com, the Competing Rate will be converted into the same currency as the rate offered on our website using the exchange rate as published in www.xe.com in place at the time the initial reservation was made. Discrepancies may occur between Corinthia Hotels' rate and the Competing Rate due to differences in exchange rate sources. If the rate discrepancy is solely due to exchange rate fluctuations, we reserve the right to deny the claim.
From imperial restaurants to historic food halls, here are the best places to sample caviar in St Petersburg
From blinis to stroganoff, Russia's culinary delicacies are many, but one that stands out above all others is caviar. These salt-cured fish eggs, farmed from wild sturgeon, are a gourmet luxury and a trip to St Petersburg is an excellent opportunity to sample their unique and salty taste. From caviar platters at Tsar Restaurant to eggs by the bucket load at Kuznechny Market, here are the best places to find caviar in St Petersburg.
Tsar Restaurant is one of the most opulent restaurants in the city, in terms of setting and cuisine. It takes traditional Russian dishes and give them a subtle contemporary twist to better suit a modern, fine dining audience. The most popular of the restaurant's array of local delicacies, caviar is offered in a range of varieties from Pike, Trout and Atlantic Salmon to Sturgeon, Starred Sturgeon and Beluga (the rarest and most expensive variety). Kick-start your caviar discovery with a tasting and enjoy three premium varieties, washed down with vodka or Champagne. Tsar Restaurant serves caviar in the traditional way, on mother of pearl spoons accompanied by fritters, rye toast and sour cream.
Another excellent restaurant serving premium caviar is Palkin. The historic eatery, which dates to 1785, is famed for its fine Russian gastronomy and imperial setting. Enjoy a sophisticated tasting experience and choose between black or red caviar, served with wheat pancakes, sour cream and quail eggs, or select the assorted caviar option and treat yourself to a platter of different varieties. Follow the tasting with classic French and Russian dishes based on recipes of bygone eras.
Emporium is an iconic store with a rich and regal history. Located on Nevsky Prospect, the complex houses a grand food hall that's been serving the city's elite since opening in 1902. Every day, Russian gourmands flock to Eliseevy Merchant's Shop, where luxury goods, including caviar, are presented in an opulent Art Nouveau setting. The store is one of the best places in the city to buy premium caviar, and highlights of its vast collection include rare amber and gold caviar, home-branded black sturgeon caviar from Astrakhan, and superior varieties including Beluga. On your way out, don't forget to take in the whimsical moving window display by Mikhail Shemyakin.
The largest food market in the city, Kuznechny Market is another great place to shop for caviar in St Petersburg. Pass through rows of fruits and vegetables to seek out the aisles dedicated to caviar and Russian delicacies like smoked fish, dried herring and tripe. Prices may be higher here than at other markets, but the quality and variety is unbeatable. Haggling is expected, so try your hand at negotiating a good price.

Dear Members,
We are proud to share with you that RCFZ represented this past Saturday and Sunday in Zurich again.. At the Firmen Triathlon, we had Coach Stephen and Patrick Raschle come in 1st. Place. Patrick Raschle as a swimmer, came in 10th place after a very turbulant experience where high winds and wavy waters, made it a not very pleasant experience. Followed by Peter Fohn on the bike ( non-member) who did an amazing job and handled over to the runner, Coach Stephen, first place overall. Coach Stephen not only maintained, but extended the lead to over 4 minutes and 15 seconds. This was a grand successful day!
Our member of the month for July, Nadja Cobos, also participated in the Firmen Triathlon on Saturday and did really well on the running even though it was a high heat .
On Sunday we had Aitor Soto, complete the Zurich Iron Man. Aitor had a rough start as he was caught and tangled at a crowded swimming group with heavy rain. Despite a not nice start, Aitor's mental toughness got him to the finish line with a big and proud smile, as he should be.
Proud of you all and thank you for representing RCFZ.

Though HBO GO is a reputed channel, it does have some issues while streaming content. It could be a blank screen issue or a cache related issue. You need to troubleshoot it accordingly. So here are a few tips on how to resolve HBO GO playback issues on different streaming devices.
Check for updates
It is essential that you keep the HBO GO app updated at all times. You can manage settings so that the streaming device automatically updates the app. Otherwise, you can manually update the software whenever necessary.If the device is still unable to play any content, then you have to try out the next remedy.
Clear cache
Another method to rectify playback issues is by clearing your device cache. These settings vary from one streamer to another. To know how to clear the cache on your streaming device contact us on +1-855-350-3180.
Restart the device
Certain devices do not have a separate restart button. In such cases, you must simply plug them out of the power source and plug it back in after a few minutes. Once you restart the device, most streaming issues will have vanished. If it is still persistent, then you must remove the app and reinstall it.
Remove the app and install it once again
- Open the settings menu of your device and then navigate to the App management menu
- Choose the HBO GO app and remove it using the UNINSTALL option
- Restart your device to make sure that the app was successfully removed
- Then once again visit the respective app store from your device and install the HBO GO channel app
- You will need your channel provider's information such as username and password for this process
- In case you have lost this info, you can contact your channel provider and request for the login credentials
The Roku streaming players, however, face a very peculiar issue with respect to this channel. It is called the "HDCP unauthorized content disabled" error. You must fix this error in order to stream content without interruptions.
How to fix HDCP unauthorized content disabled in Roku
Are you having issues connecting to HBO GO's video stream from your earlier Roku players? The versions that face this problem are Roku LT, Roku 2 and Roku 3. It is one of the main Roku problems that users face. The error message that will display on your screen when you attempt to view a channel from these devices is, "HDCP unauthorized access content disabled".
Before we get down to the fix, let us first learn what this Roku HDCP 2.2 error is and why it is so important. High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection is similar to a copyright that protects digital media content from being copied by unauthorized personnel. The connection types that are protected by the HDCP are,
- DisplayPort (DP)
- Digital Visual Interface (DVI)
- High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI)
- Gigabit Video Interface (GVIF)
- Unified Display Interface (UDI)
The technology was developed by Intel and was designed to give an error whenever someone tries to play an HDCP encrypted content. This Roku buffering problem can occur even after you pay a subscription towards a particular channel. Be assured that the issue lies neither in your streaming device nor in your Roku account. The culprit here is your HDMI cable.
Performing the fix
An old wire that is not compatible with HDCP or a faulty HDMI cable are reasons for the Rokupurple screen issue. And the only way to overcome it is by replacing your HMDI cable. After making this replacement you may, however, want to restart all the connected devices such as your Roku, TV and the router before giving it another try.

Are you sure?
This action might not be possible to undo. Are you sure you want to continue?
Patricia MacDonald delivers the chilling story of a woman who discovers that her own eyewitness testimony about her sister's abduction led to the conviction and execution of the wrong man-and that the real killer is still at large.
When Tess DeGraff was nine years old and on a camping trip in New Hampshire with her family, a stranger kidnapped and killed her sister Phoebe. Thanks to Tess's eyewitness testimony, a man named Lazarus Abbott was arrested and convicted for the heinous crime. But twenty years later, a test reveals that Abbott's DNA does not match that of Phoebe's murderer. Driven by her fear that she may have sent an innocent man to his death, Tess and her adopted son, Erny, return to the New Hampshire town in which it all happened years ago.
Stone Hill, New Hampshire, is still an idyllic New England town. Tess's courageous mother, Dawn, now runs the charming Stone Hill Inn. Tess's older brother, Jake, lives nearby with his wife, a local girl he fell in love with during the trial of his sister's killer. While Tess's family stands by her account of the crime, nerves are frayed throughout Stone Hill, and others in town accuse her of lying and view her as a murderer. In a race against time to untangle the truth about her sister's murder, Tess encounters an anti-death penalty lawyer, Ben Webster, a biased police chief related to the Abbotts, and an unknown killer who has Tess and Erny in his sights.

Introducing Lindsey Pfeiffenberger, Rêve's Newest Instructor!
We are so excited to announce our community ride with Lindsey Pfeiffenberger! Chances are you recognize Lindsey from the studio, as she is one of our most consistent riders, and we are so excited to experience her transition to the podium! We asked her to complete some sentences for us, read on to get more familiar with why she decided to become a Rêve instructor, what are some of her favorite activities outside the studio, and a preview of the types of songs we can expect to hear. She will be teaching her first community ride this Friday, March 4th, at 5:30. We hope to see you there!
1. I ride at Rêve because…
I used to run, but it was getting hard on my body. I tried indoor cycling and loved the workout. I love that moment when your legs start burning and the sweat starts dripping. Plus, once I walked into Rêve, I instantly fell in love with the community of riders and the instructors.
2. Teaching's a big job! About what are you most excited? What makes your class unique?
I'm excited to motivate others! By finding songs I love and mixing them with awesome choreography and resistance, I feel like I will create a fun and unique experience.
3. Three songs you'll definitely find on my first few playlists will be…
We love having dance parties at my house, and I Don't Feel like Dancin', Uptown Funk and Temple have been our favorites! I'm from the Midwest and have a secret love for old school country. Don't be surprised to start hearing some from time to time.
4. When I'm not at the studio, you can find me…
We are an active and social family- and I'm not good at sitting still. There are so many ways we keep busy! I work in special education with middle school students. I love to bake sweet treats, read, attempt home improvement projects, play at the beach, or snowshoe around.
5. The most challenging part about becoming an instructor has been…
Trusting myself to give everyone the kind of workout I expect when I walk into the studio. I want everyone to feel amazing and motivated and, of course, sweaty.
6. Anything else you'd like the Rêve community to know about you?
I'm originally from Fargo, ND and moved out east all alone 13 years ago. I've lived in 6 states and traveled and moved a lot when I worked in corporate and retail management. But, my English degree brought me back to education, and ultimately teaching spin!

Our Lady Saint Mary - by The Reverend J.G.H. Barry
Our Lady Saint Mary - by The Reverend J.G.H. Barry
Our Lady Saint Mary - by the Reverend J.G.H. Barry, 3rd Rector of the Church of Saint Mary the Virgin.
Hardcover - reprint - very small type
$10 + $6 shipping and handling
In this brilliantly argued and deeply moving work, renowned Anglican Priest and scholar J. G. H. Barry defends Roman Catholic doctrines regarding the Blessed Mother's Immaculate Conception, Perpetual Virginity, Bodily Assumption, Coronation in Heaven, and Christ's gift to us all from the cross of Mary's personal and eternal Motherhood. Along the way, he builds powerful cases for the Catholic view of Jesus, of the beauty and necessity of the Sacraments, of the reality of the Communion of Saints and more. With the 21st Century Anglican Communion in a state of schism, and literally hundreds of congregations in the US alone returning to the Roman Catholic Church, this 20th Century theological masterpiece shines a timely and much-needed light of faith and reason on the non-negotiable truths undergirding our one true Universal Church.

A Review Of Boulevard Brewing Company's Unfiltered Wheat Beer
Review Rating
An unfiltered wheat with notes of citrus, clove and banana swirling around in a hazy gold oasis. This brew is a perfect compliment to those sunny, hot summer days as this wheat refreshens and cools off those dried up palates and sweat filled faces. Boulevard Brewing Company is located in Kansas City, Missouri and is opened for free public tours 7 days a week at varietal time on a first come first serve basis.
Boulevard Brewing Company: Unfiltered Wheat Beer
Style: American-Style Wheat Beer
Calories: 132
Appearance: Hazy Gold
Bitterness: Moderate
Aroma: Initial whiff provides a clove, banana and slight cereal aroma that really blends together rather well. Following are notes of citrus, coriander, herbal and floral hops, and a light cinnamon touch giving a bit of a spicy and overall fruity impression with a well rounded gesture to the nose that seeps on to the palates already giving a glimpse of its flavor before the actual first sip.
Flavor: With the first sip brings a clove, banana and cheerio type flavors with a citrus kick that amps up the senses and tingles on the palates. Hints of coriander, lemon and orange peel with a sour, zesty and spicy punch towards the end. Slight pickle notes show up with a tangy finish.
Mouthfeel/Body: Light body with a slick, tangy and sour finish. Very crisp, refreshing as well as cleansing to the palates. The tangy and sour finish seem to linger around on the palates giving a slight pucker and smacking of the lips.
Food and Beer Pairing Suggestions: This light and refreshing brew deserves a hearty meal that compliments the flavors, but provides a bit of distinguishment at the same time. Two pairings really come to mind when pairing a wheat beer with the first suggestion being an easy to do while the other being a little more complex in flavor and style. The first pairing option is a pizza. Pretty simple pairing option that gives a few complimentary characteristics of bread, tang and spicy notes along with the mozzarella cheese pairing up real nice. The overall bold flavors stand out but provide an overall simple enjoyment with the beer. Another option would be a bowl of shrimp gumbo and baked bread. This recipe isn't too complex, but is more complex than pizza and provides complimentary flavors of spice, tang and zest while still providing a bold and rich flavor that suits up with the wheat very well. A complimentary dessert dish would be a key lime pie or banana cream pie, both giving enhancing different flavors of the wheat.
Give Boulevard Brewing Company's Unfiltered Wheat a try along with the delicious pairing options and feel your taste buds come alive. To truly enjoy a beer is by complimenting it with a meal and vice versa, so don't miss out and grab your wheat beer today and see what real enjoyment and relaxation are all about.

One thing is certain: pitching is the order of the day and is becoming increasingly important.
To pitch: pleasure or burden?In this blog post, I'm going to address the following of pitching:
- What is a pitch?
- What do experts say regarding this subject?
- What are my own experiences?
- How can you train your pitch to gain more revenue?
- Persuasion
- Story
- Idea
- Short
- Prospect
Pitch: a definitionYou often hear terms such as 'elevator pitch', 'desk bitch' or 'personal pitch'. But what is a pitch exactly?
Elements of a PitchLet's quickly review the elements of a pitch: Convincing In order to persuade you must be fully persuaded. Only if you're convinced a full 100% yourself, you'll be able to persuade others.
Pacelle van Goethem, a persuasion expert, sees a connection with the hippocampus. It's important that the one who wants to persuade the other(s) relaxes them by doing something that is recognized by their hippocampus – a part of the brain that is partly responsible for quick recognition and memory.
Story The second element of the pitch is the story. What's the story? What's in it for hem? It's the story that you have to transfer to your prospects. It's about a personal message that needs to get things moving. (S)he who pitches is the product. How important that is? Extremely important. I dare say that Steve Jobs was able to transform Apple into one the most valuable companies ever thanks to his brilliant sales skills. Idea
This is the heart of the pitch. Having somewhat worth saying. Stop speaking start listening. Important is that you're target audience gets to hear something relevant. It's not about what you like of find important. What specifically helps the target audience, what keeps them occupied, what challenges are they dealing with? It's about immersing yourself into the customer or prospect. Investigate how an idea, often one of your products or services, can help them. Its users are key for Google: start with the user and the rest will follow only in a matter of time. Short
We live agitated; this applies to both our private and business life. Each day numerous (un)solicited advertisements reach us from people who want something. A pitch requires energy from the customer. Quickly come to the point of what you want to achieve with your idea. Time is money. Prospect
The prospect is the audience of the pitch. It's someone of 'flesh and blood'. The pitch requires personal contact because the message targets the prospect specifically. Making eye contact and asking sufficient questions are both two methods that are used to check whether the story is clear. The pitch involves at least the decision-makers but sometimes even the influencers with a certain company or organization.
Experts on pitchingPitching has been in the spotlight for quite some time now. Life is a pitch is the title of a book from 2007 by Stephen Bayley and Roger Mavity. Want to know more? Watch this video.
Roger Mavity is an experienced advertiser who believes pitching really makes the difference. Most work you daily do is maintaining your customer portfolio, but pitching is the moment of truth that can make the difference. Doing business is more than simply emotions and thought. You have to transfer that emotion! It's a piece of drama, which loosens your energy.
Andrew Klein, a pitch expert from Australia, suggests that it's about authenticity and personality. Your pitch should fit you like a glove. Behaving yourself differently to seem 'ideal' won't work. Are you a serious person in real life? Don't try to play the joker. Radiate and be inspired. It involves engagement and making contact. Tell your story like you're dinking a cup of tea. On YouTube you can find all sorts of great material from Andrew Klein.
Edo van Santen considers himself a Dutch 'pitchologist'.He offers training courses and learns people how pitch. Unlike Roger Mavity he states that the message is less important than the way you say it. To get into the hippocampus of others, you have to use your voice. For example: your intonation and communication are big assets. According to van Santen, this is much more important than the content of your message.
Own experiences with pitchingI've been an entrepreneur since 2005. In the past 11 years, I've encountered numerous successes and disappointments with pitching. That's not that surprising. Selling is scoring but also taking a 'no' when you hear one. Achieving 100% successful pitches is just impossible. What I learned is that pitching and selling is a non-stop process. As an entrepreneur, you should always have a story ready. Sometimes you get an opportunity, but you'll have to be able to score immediately. I also use multiple pitches because sometimes you have to deal with a different audience or a different context. I also use tags, keywords in support of the content. That often lingers with people. In my case these are: digital, search, analytics, lead generation, conversions, return on investment. Dare to fail. You have nothing to lose apart from the time you've invested in pitching. It's a 'No'? Maybe next time you'll hear a definite 'Yes!'. Never underestimate a pitch. Prepare yourself and most importantly radiate passion and pleasure. People are allergic to negative energy. The pitch is widened by the many contact options that are available today. I sell myself on LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, by blogging, in an e-mail, during drinks at a bar, by phone, in the gym, at the golf course, in the sauna and so on. An entrepreneur that stops selling goes broke within an instance.
Train your pitch, double your revenueWhich tips can I offer you to increase your revenue? Consider all elements of the pitch I explained previously first before you continue. You are the product
Carefully consider who and what you want to be for which audience. The WHY model by Simon Senek can get you going. Train, Train, Train
Practice your pitch as much as possible. It's a subject you'll have to train for the rest of your career. Otherwise you won't be successful. Practice in front of the mirror, on video during a Pecha Kucha session, at a master class or in front of another entrepreneur. Ask yourself: do I believe my own story? Endurance
Hold on even when you hear 'No'. Learn from your failures. Selling is like art en takes years of experience. Some start-ups do up to 150 presentations before they're able to get financing. Writer J.K. Rowling, known for Harry Potter, was rejected by more than 10 publishers before she became successful. She's now worth a staggering one billion pounds. Maintenance You also have to maintain and sometimes change your pitch. Work with a version 2.0, 3.0 and so on. Keep your pitch up to date. Take recent experiences into account.

The photographer who won the £43m property jackpot
He bought New York's 'Bank' for £36,000 and sold it for £43m. But, as a new film reveals, Jay Maisel found it hard to let go
For nearly 50 years, the grand, palazzo-like building flanking the corner of Spring Street, in Lower Manhattan, was a mystery to locals who passed it on their way to nearby Roosevelt Park, or Bowery subway station. Many of them assumed its six storeys were derelict – certainly the scree of graffiti plastering its lower levels, the boarded-up windows and its soot-blackened, peeling wooden door indicated as much.
In fact, all 38,000 sq ft of it; every one of its 72 rooms, every inch of its marble, mahogany, maple, stained glass, granite and wrought iron interior, belonged...

An opening ceremony saw the Defence Secretary unveil a plaque to mark the completion of five years of work and £50 million worth of investment into the high-tech site, which has been labelled 'the jewel in the crown' of weapons firm MBDA.
It marks a major milestone for the new site, where design, engineering and manufacturing experts are producing state-of-the-art equipment and systems. Complex weapons being built there will go on to do everything from arming F-35 fighter jets to protecting British troops and Royal Navy ships, whilst the move to the site has seen 100 new jobs created.
Defence Secretary Gavin Williamson said: "This £50m factory supports 700 jobs in Bolton, showing how central strong British defence industry is to our national prosperity. MBDA's investment has created more than 100 new jobs, and this has been supported by a £400m contract from the Government helping to create a further 100 roles within the company. You can't have prosperity without security. MBDA in Bolton is keeping Britain safe while creating highly-skilled jobs and opportunities, demonstrating our commitment to the people of Bolton and the North West."
MBDA has a history in the Lancashire region stretching back for more than 80 years when the Lostock site was first opened to build propellers for the war effort. The new facility will now replace that site and provide a truly cutting-edge solution, designed to meet the modern requirements of the MOD and worldwide export customers. It will significantly improve the company's manufacturing and test capabilities, as well as making them a more agile outfit whilst improving value-for-money for the taxpayer through contributing further cost reductions to the £1.4 billion in savings already generated by the innovative partnership approach to complex weapons between the MOD and MBDA.

Roof leaks, big or small, can be extremely destructive. They may seem harmless when all that you see are water spots, but don't this issue lightly as leaks can damage your home in many ways.
Most professional roofers, including West Side Roofing, would attest that these are the biggest dangers of a leaky roofing system:
Integrity Let's start with the obvious: leaks can lead to water damage. Constant exposure of building materials to moisture can cause paint to peel, wall cladding to buckle, metal to corrode and wood to decay. If you store items in the attic, they would be the first victims of water intrusion. Long-standing water can also put stress on the ceiling and make it cave in, damaging your valuables in the process.
Did your energy bills go through the roof? Experienced roofers say that wet insulation might be the culprit. Attic insulation clumps when exposed to water, reducing its ability to reduce heat transfer. Until it dries out and reverts to its optimum performance, your home's thermal enclosure system would lose one of its key elements. Chronic water infiltration can severely deplete insulation, potentially resulting in premature replacement.
Mold feasts on the sugar and starch of wood, paper, natural fiber textiles and other cellulosic building material. In warm and moist environments, it can grow rapidly and spread throughout your home through the air. Uncontrolled mold growth can ultimately cause property damage, which might not be covered by your home insurance.
Reputable roofers would warn you that a roof leak is a fire hazard. When water comes in contact with electrical wiring, it can lead to a fire when there's damaged insulation. But even if your insulation is in good shape, the water can seep into the metal junction boxes and become electrically charged upon touching uncovered wires.
Let West Side Roofing help you head off the effects of roof leakage. Call us at (216) 245-1050 now to talk about your roofing needs in Akron, Cleveland or Parma, OH, and get a free estimate.

The San Diego Jewish Journal recently published a rather revealing article about the Jewish Caucus, formed at the beginning of this year, in the California state legislature. The article begins:
Notice that the second two paragraphs of this article reveal exactly what the Jewish Caucus is all about - creating and maintaining "a strong Jewish voice in the California legislature" and ensuring the fraudulent Jewish "Holocaust" story is officially commemorated and institutionalized with state sanction and funding.
But what else is the Jewish Caucus about? Maintaining political and economic support for the Jewish state of Israel, of course.
The California state legislature's first ethnic caucus was the Black Caucus which formed in 1967. A handful of years later, in 1973, the Latino Caucus formed. It wasn't again until 2001 that California received another ethnic caucus, this time for legislators of Asian and Pacific Islander descent. Only a year later, the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Caucus was created. The Jewish Caucus, which launched in January of this year, is the newest group on the caucus block and it has already had a lot of work to do.After reading the first paragraph, I couldn't help but think: Why is there no White Caucus? All the other ethnic and sexual (deviant) groups can form political Caucuses - why can't Whites? What haven't Whites is the more pertinent question, especially considering we will be a minority in one generation (or less) in America as a whole. Whites already are a minority in California. As long as we are stuck with this ridiculous sham known as "democracy" in America, Whites may as well organize and fight for their interests and future, just like all the other groups do. Of course, the reason why Whites haven't formed political and cultural groups (at least not effectively) to champion and defend their own unique interests is largely because of political correctness and the Jewish control of media and politics.
As a bipartisan group, the Jewish Caucus is hoping to create and maintain a strong Jewish voice in the California legislature. Senator Marty Block, of District 39, which reaches up to Solana Beach, out to San Carlos and down to Coronado, decided to start the Jewish Caucus after he became chair of 2008's Holocaust Remembrance Ceremony. Serving as the chair mostly means being the chief fundraiser for the large event and the inefficiency of last-minute fundraising made Block think there might be a better way.
"It seemed to me there should be a standard group of people," Senator Block says, "a standing caucus, something that is there to make sure that the Holocaust Remembrance Ceremony is institutionalized and that we're ready to do it and are funded to do it every year." [...]
Notice that the second two paragraphs of this article reveal exactly what the Jewish Caucus is all about - creating and maintaining "a strong Jewish voice in the California legislature" and ensuring the fraudulent Jewish "Holocaust" story is officially commemorated and institutionalized with state sanction and funding.
But what else is the Jewish Caucus about? Maintaining political and economic support for the Jewish state of Israel, of course.
In March, the Caucus was invited to the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between California's Governor Jerry Brown and Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In it, the two agree to more cooperation between California and Israel on a variety of issues including biotech, water and security. After it was signed, Block authored, and all Jewish Caucus members signed, a resolution for the legislature, pledging support in the Assembly for the MOU.Unsurprisingly, the Jewish Caucus was outraged over the "Holocaust" assignment given to 8th graders in the Rialto Unified School District earlier this year, and went to work immediately:
"We think this Memorandum of Understanding and the resolution, they tell people you might have these fringe groups that are trying to boycott, there are these groups on campus, but California is firmly stating that we're open for business with Israel."
The Caucus obtained a copy of the assignment, which asked: "Do you think the Holocaust was real or do you think it was staged by the Jews to gain more money and political power?"There you have it folks - that is what the Jewish Caucus operating in the California state legislature is all about. Encouraging and supporting Jews to get involved in politics, guaranteeing full political and economic support for the Jewish state of Israel, and ensuring the fake Jewish "Holocaust" narrative of WWII is perpetuated and state sanctioned, funded, and institutionalized. In short, the Jewish Caucus in all about Jewish interests (duh!).
The legislative group then wrote a letter to the school district demanding that it retract the assignment. It had already been assigned to some students, but the school district did eventually cancel the assignment and told students who had not yet completed it that they were no longer required to do so.
"For school districts," Block explains, "if we the legislature take a position like this, they will pay more attention than just to the ADL or the Museum of Tolerance. … We control the budget of the school district. When a senator and assembly members say this is not acceptable, it carries with it a threat that funding will be cut next year."
In addition to the letter, the Jewish Caucus helped to coordinate a series of Holocaust education efforts for the Rialto school district with the ADL and the Museum of Tolerance. As part of these efforts, a group of Holocaust survivors spoke at a Rialto School District board meeting and students were sent on a field trip to the Museum of Tolerance. The district also agreed to assign Elie Wiesel's "Night" to its ninth graders next year.

Remember few months ago when I told you guys I did apply for government scholarship program? I did say I didn't pass the first one so I apply for another one right? but then I didn't pass again, so therefore my mom asked me to apply for another one again but this time it's not scholarship program anymore but it's regular program but only involving government university.
At first I thought I am going to apply it but as time goes by I realise this is going to be hard and tough so I am thinking of Plan B which is Hospitality in usual university. I did apply for that government exam but I cancelled before I paid the entrance fee because I finally decided to take Hospitality. I know you guys are going to say "omg how can you take Hospitality? it's so far different from Medical" but that's the only major I like aside from Medical, so the point is I give up Medical for Hospitality. Yes I did give up to my dream since kid. but I know another big dream is ahead me <3
I have been accepted into one of Medan's big university (without entrance exam) and orientation will be on August 21st which is few days ahead. I AM NERVOUS. lol
end of my post here XD
oh and
it has been 70 years, I hope Indonesia could grow better and better in the future :3

Puppy vaccinations, worming, heartworm and fleas
All dogs should be vaccinated against Parvovirus, Hepatitis and Distemper. Puppies need a program to minimise the risk of them contracting these potentially fatal viruses as well as the less deadly Canine Cough. At D.R.V.C. we also vaccinate puppies against Coronavirus (a serious diarrhoea virus) and Leptospirosis (C2 vaccine). The recommended vaccination program is :
- At 6-8 weeks C3
- At 12-14 weeks C5 and C2
- At 16-18 weeks C5 and C2
An annual booster is required every year thereafter. A C5 is the advised adult vaccination as it offers protection against Canine Cough (Parainfluenza and Bordatella.) which is highly infectious.
Dogs need to be wormed regularly to remove intestinal worms. These include whipworm, round worm, hookworm and tapeworm. Worming should be done from:
- 0 to 12 weeks - every 2 weeks
- 12 weeks to 6 months - monthly
- 6 months and over - every 3 months
Supermarket wormers are not 100% effective
Heartworm is transmitted by mosquitoes and is present in many areas of Australia. Your puppy should begin heartworm prevention by 6 months of age. If your puppy is overdue for a dose by 6 weeks then a blood test is advised before resuming prevention. Most heartworm products are administered monthly, however there is now a convenient yearly injection for adults.
It is important to de-flea your pup. Fleas carry tapeworm, and can even cause anaemia. Most flea treatments are administered monthly by topical application. There are a variety of extremely safe products that can incorporate heartworm, flea, mange and ticks.

Two parts of this are relevant to this case. First, the rule uses the singular "a rule or contract"; an asset can have on a single backing document. Second, an asset must exist solely because its backing document defines its existence. This strengthens the first point; if two contracts define something, it would continue to be defined if either of the contracts ceased to exist and thus could not be an asset. Before the actions to which this case pertains, Vote Points unambiguously were defined only by the Vote Market agreement, which was their backing document. If ehird's pledge could also define Vote Points at the same time the Vote Market did so, Vote Points would cease to be an asset under Rule 2166. Rule 1586 says, in part: If multiple rules or contracts (hereafter documents) attempt to define an entity with the same name, then they refer to the same entity. Thus, ehird's pledge's attempt to define Vote Points succeeding in doing so and referred to the same entity the Vote Market did. Now, the question is whether ehird's pledge makes it so e CAN create Vote-Points-the-non-asset-entity, and if so, whether those Vote Points became Vote-Points-the-Asset when the pledge was terminated. Since at the time the contract existed Vote Points were not an Asset, R2166's grant of the ability of a Recordkeepor to generally create assets does not apply. No other rule specifically allows the creation of a Vote Point entity, so their creation is legal if and only if it's an unregulated action. Rule 2125(e) says that an action that would, as part of its effect, modify information for which some player is required to be recordkeepor is impossible except as allowed by other rules. While the instantaneous creation of contract state in ehird's contract of the existence of 1000 VP in eir possession does not, at the time it happens, create any recordkeeping obligation (since only recordkeepors of assets have such an obligation), the subsequent (otherwise legal) action of terminating the pledge CANNOT modify any information for which BobTHJ is required to act as recordkeepor. The continuity of the 1000 VPs granted by R1586 thus conflicts with R2125, and R2125 takes precedence by means of having a higher power. ========================================================================

Ron Cubay 3 Year Old Carta Blanca Rum Reviews
1 Customer Review
My next door neighbour gave me a bottle of this rum that he brought back from Cuba . And I was pleasantly impressed with the quality especially from what I gather is a cheap island rum . There's plenty of honey syrup flavours in there, nice and smooth on the palate then you get a warm burn in the chest five seconds later. It's not a clear rum it's almost a light golden colour which tells me it's as pure as you can get . It just adds to the madness on what the supermarkets in the uk still call rum . As a rum drinker myself I'm proud that Ive sampled some epic rums and I still get excited when I find a new one .

The Word
"When you forgive this man, I forgive him, too. And when I forgive whatever needs to be forgiven, I do so with Christ's authority for your benefit, so that Satan will not outsmart us. For we are familiar with his evil schemes." 2 Corinthians 10, 11
The evil one is an expert in concealing residues of unforgiveness. Jesus told us to forgive others just as he forgave us. Too often, though, forgiveness is spoken and accompanied with a companion thought or statement: "I forgive them, but I will no longer trust them."
When cancer is not removed and eliminated from the human body, residue cancer cells will reproduce to attack again. Harboring unforgiveness at any level will cause damage to spiritual heath. The pattern and call of Christ is to forgive others as Jesus forgave us.
Search my heart Holy Spirit and reveal any residue of unforgiveness. Then fill me with your strength and wisdom so that I may forgive as you forgive. Amen.
"and forgive us our sins, as we have forgiven those who sin against us."

There a few signs in the Ngamo release site that spring is here, but perhaps one of the most outstanding are the bright scarlet flowers of the lucky bean tree. Erythrina lysistemon blooms from August to September marking the change of season and a signal for people to plant their crops. But it's not just the seasons that are changing, some relationships within the pride seem to be blossoming too.
The initiation of social gestures between females is frequent and is fundamental in establishing and maintaining life long bonds. Gestures such as head rubbing and licking go far in reaffirming these bonds and, to date, the relationships between pride members has been stable.
KE3 licking Kwali
However, until recently, AS4 had not been considered to be that closely connected to her half-sisters, AT1, KE3 and KE4 and, given that it is these four females that are proposed for life together in the wild, the research team has been observing the four closely.
For a long time AS4 was never too far from her brother AS5. The duo would rest together, play together, and they would even team up in trying to intimidate their siblings. But now AS4's bullying and intimidation of KE3 and KE4 has transformed into resting beside them, and her interactions with AT1 are becoming more regular; something that was hardly ever observed between the two. She is also spending a lot more of her time with Nala, a lioness that is recognised as playing an important role in the development of the youngsters in Ngamo.
AT1 and AS4 resting together
Now both adults, AS4 and AS5 are less dependent on each other. AS5 is beginning to behave like a male approaching his prime and spends the majority of his time in the company of dad Milo, whilst AS4 seems to be becoming 'one of the girls'.
Milo and AS5 patrolling their territory
It's all part of growing up. Still, on the 28th of the month, AS4 and AS5 confirmed that we haven't seen the end of their play bouts just yet.

About the Ngamo Lion Release Site
The 6 adults (1 male and 5 females) of the 'Ngamo Pride' were captive born and released into the 'Ngamo Lion Release Site' in 2010, having been walked in the rehabilitation phase of the ex situ conservation project, the African Rehabilitation and Release into the Wild Programme. The pride's 5 offspring (1 male and 4 females) were born in the site and have had no human contact, display natural behaviours, and are intended for release into the wild in the final phase of the Programme.

Yesterday I got a text message that said, "I'm 6cm dialated and checked-in at the hospital". I've never moved so fast in my life. I ran out the door hoping I didn't forget something vital. When I got there, I felt as if I just walked in on the most intimate moment ever. The soon to be daddy was bent over the soon to be mommy, rubbing her back and giving her kisses. He played with her hair. He told her he loved her. Nurses and midwives came and went and all were amazing, comforting. Then the birth of new life! It was one of the most moving moments in my entire life, getting to see the love. The joy. The work. And that first cry. It was like music. So here they are.
Thank you oh so, so, so very much for allowing me to come to your son's birth. It was an experience I will treasure always. I hope you love your photographs (memories) as much as I do.
You can see the rest of the images and order prints here.

The very definition of a 1980's fairground attraction, the Octopus was a marvelous 'spin and spew' ride with gondolas on the end of legs spinning on a wavy course.
The ride stayed in Aqualand through to the area's retheme in 1992 when it was then moved to Talbot Street to make way for the entrance to Katanga Canyon, but it was removed the following year when Talbot Street become the Land of Make Believe.

A Gainsborough man who made threats of violence towards his partner after their relationship ended has been jailed.
Matthew Percival left his victim Amber Smith terrified and fearing that he would kill her, Lincoln Crown Court heard.
Phil Howes, prosecuting, said that after the relationship ended Percival visited Ms Smith's Lincoln home to collect a coat. While he was at the property he started talking to himself and then began to pick up knives.
Mr Howes said: "Amber Smith said he seemed crazy and angry with the world. She thought he was going to kill her. In the end she rang his sister and his sister took him home."
Two days afterwards Percival sent Ms Smith a text message threatening to give her a kicking. And later the same month Percival made further threats including a warning that he would chop off Ms Smith's arm.
The court was told Percival has 32 previous convictions for a total of 58 offences.
Percival, 29, of Burton Street, admitted putting a person in fear of violence by harassment. He was jailed for 18 months and given a five-year restraining order banning him from contacting Amber Smith and from going within 100 metres of her home.
Judge Simon Hirst said: "The best that can be said on your behalf is that there were no physical assaults committed. That said, you made this young lady's life a misery for three weeks."
Sunil Khanna, in mitigation, said Percival was upset because he loaned Ms Smith a special bracelet belonging to his mother and wanted it back when the relationship was over.
"He went to speak to her," he said. "He was asking for the bracelet to be returned but as far as she was concerned it was a gift.
"He accepts his behaviour was extreme and would have been frightening to Ms Smith. He is very sorry for his actions."
Mr Khanna said the offence happened at a time when Percival had developed a drink problem.

The Hurt Take - Episode XIV
It finally happened. The fight that for so long felt like a fantasy is now coming true...even if it's still a fantasy. Conor McGregor will box Floyd Mayweather on August 26 in Las Vegas and Rhys is fired up about it. Too much to talk about, so you'll have to listen. What else is on the episode? What else matters!? Rhys talks Cyborg getting a crack at the 145 belt, the bizarre from last weekend UFC Fight Night in Singapore, and....ah, who cares? You want McGregor/Mayweather talk. Just listen up.Read More

Remember when you used to go down the park and play football with your best mate - just the two of you?
Remember when it was your turn to go in goal?
Remember how depressing it got when you kept having to run after the ball when your mate kept spanking it past you.
The only difference between then and now is that your mate couldn't troll you afterwards on Instagram... just like how Cesc Fabregas did to Thibaut Courtois on Tuesday.
In the video above, Chelsea 's number one looked as though he had teleported back to one of those good old park times with his teammate.
During a training session, Fabregas can be seen drilling a couple of shots past the 24-year-old.
Happy with his work, the Spaniard posted the video with the caption: "Easy practice against @thibautcourtois today in training."

Canon PIXMA iX6550 Review - If you are attempting to print a large notice, a motivational poster or covers to have an A4 document, an A4 printer just won't do. Fortunately, you will find an growing quantity of A3 devices around plus they needn't be expensive to purchase. Canon PIXMA iX6550 is really a full-bleed A3 device costing under £160 and is made to stop wasting time by using it.
Another printer completed having a high-gloss black top, a minimum of that one has textured black around its sides, so there's one less surface to wipe free from fingerprints. As being a medium-format printer, the paper tray behind and also the output tray in front boost the machine's footprint significantly, consider both of them are telescopic, it's not necessary to ask them to fully extended when printing smaller sized sizes. The printer may take paper lower to fifteen x 10cm and as much as A3, with borderless printing completely up.
The only real physical controls are a couple of silvered buttons around the front panel for Power and Job Cancel. There aren't any storage device slots or PictBridge/USB socket, which appears odd. It always appears peculiar that the printer created for bigger paper, that will inevitably be introduced into homes and companies where likely to elevated curiosity about photo taking images, shouldn't have any immediate access to individuals files.
While appreciating that card slots likewise need an Liquid crystal display for image selection, a PictBridge socket costs hardly any to apply and enables photos to become printed from a video camera, while using camera's monitor for selection.
Just one USB socket behind is in order to of information connection and software, that is deliver to Home windows and OS X, does not go much beyond a person and Canon Easy-PhotoPrint and Solution Menu applets. The motive force is smartly designed and able to handle all of the key functions from the Canon PIXMA iX6550.
Lift the very best cover and also the mind carrier swings towards the center carriage position, so that you can clip within the semi-permanent printhead and also the five inkjet cartridges. Included in this are two blacks, one for text print on plain paper and yet another for photo black, to intensify the more dark greyscales in photo images.
Canon PIXMA iX6550 Performance:
Canon claims speeds of 11.3ppm and eight.3ppm for black and colour ISO prints, correspondingly. Under test, our five-page black text print required 37s, a speed of 8.1ppm, which elevated to 9.3ppm for that 20-page document. The main difference backward and forward is basically lower towards the fidgeting round the printer does before beginning to print. It will a substantial amount of this, that is excluded in the ISO tests, and it is worse when printing black text and colour graphics.
The optimum time we had on the five-page text and colour test was 3.2ppm, however the longest print run within this test incorporated a complete 40s of 'housekeeping', before printing began. The printer does not always take this lengthy, but it is irritating if this does and also you need print in a rush.
Printing A3 does not double the amount time taken and our five-page A3 document finished in 2:37, or 1.9ppm. Switching to photo paper, a 15 x 10cm print required just 52s, that is impressively quick since, of course, we print in highest quality mode. An A3 print required 2:33, also is fast - the printer seems to possess been optimised for fast photo printing.
We're always impressed with Canon's top printing quality which machine produces fairly clean black text, though having a hint of shadow to right or left of some figures. Draft mode text is sensational looking still well-created and incredibly much what it really states, ideally suited to internal documents where final top printing quality is not essential.
Colour print is neat and regions of colour show no indications of banding and little when it comes to dither patterns. Photos come finished natural colours and good amounts of detail both in light and eye shadows of images.
There's only some inkjet cartridges suitable for this machine and, even at Internet prices, they do not emerge that cheap, giving an expense per A4 page of three.7p for black and eight.9p for colour. As the colour price is cost effective for these kinds of machine, the black print price is high, though of the identical order as other Canon inkjets.

The following is from a Ladies Night which I attended at The Gog Magogg Golf Club just outside Cambridge in November 2013.
Dear Kim
Many thanks for your magnificent Toast Mastering on the occasion of our Ladies Night.
These events are fun and enjoyable but have an element of formal proceedings that need organising and managing whilst we all enjoy ourselves, and we should not have to worry what comes next.
Your calming style and attention to detail enabled the formal part to go well, and made those who had various speeches and toasts to relax and focus on the job in hand.
The rest of us could just enjoy the event knowing the evening was in safe hands, so we say thanks to you and well done!

Our wedding day would not have been the same without you there, you helped us with absolutely everything and were right there for us without being intrusive. You looked after us superbly and it was so reassuring to know you were there, whether it was to answer our questions, check things out for us, or get us a drink! We literally could not have asked for more from you, we would recommend you to anyone who wants to take away some of the stress and worry from their day. Thank you for everything.

Without Kim we simply wouldn't have had the magical day we did. His calm and knowledgeable attitude throughout the day and the months leading up to it kept us both at ease and generated even more excitement! From the first meeting where he guided us through what to expect, to the day itself where he was on hand throughout with wise words, sage council and a glass of whatever was needed! He organised the ushers and the wedding party to perfection and was always clear, polite and charming, a real hit with all the revellers! Hire this man for your own special day, you will definitely not regret it!
He was a star !

Graham and
Laura's Wedding
at Lynford Hall,
July 2013
Dear Kim,
Thank you so much for being the toastmaster on our special day at Lyndford Hall hotel on 27th July 2013. Having a toastmaster for our wedding was something that we hadn't even heard of or considered until we met you at the wedding fair at the Corn Exchange Kings Lynn. Now we honestly do not even know how we would have got through our day without you. Not only did you go out of your way many times before the day to meet with us to organise every small detail and help with speeches but we also got to know you and you us which just added to the ease of the day.
We are especially thankful, whilst you were not only ensuring everything ran exactly as we had wished, you made over and above efforts to ensure we had chance to breath, have a drink and remain as stress free as possible throughout the day.
We would highly recommend a toastmaster for any wedding or other function and above all would personally reccomend Kim as his service is flawless and fantastic.
Thank you so much for helping and sharing our special day with us.

Lara and Adam's
Wedding at
South Runcton
June 2013
Dear Kim,
Thank you for being toastmaster at our wedding 8th June 2013 at The Red Barn, We hadn't even thought of having a toastmaster in the early stages of wedding planning, until meeting you at a wedding show, making the right decision we hired you for the day.
Looking back now we couldn't have done it without you, right from the start you were very helpful and approachable at all times, throughout the actual day you were on hand to make sure everything went to plan, not only organising the guests but ourselves as well, making everything run smoothly and relieving the pressure from us.
Highly recommended to anyone looking for a toastmaster. Even if your thinking you don't need a toastmaster, you will!
Worth every penny!
Many thanks
Adam & Lara
30th October 2011
Dear Kim
Now that the wedding season is coming to a quieter time, I just wanted to thank you for all your support over the past years.
Your caring, understanding and patience of our Brides needs is absolutely superb, you have been flexible and your style is relaxed and professional even down to making sure that the Brides wedding dress is hanging safely in the room, which at times can be invaluable!!
Your attention to detail also hasn't gone unnoticed by me and other members of my staff for which I can only thank you, as a wedding day can only be a 'one off' and is truly memorable for the family of the Bride and Groom, this you have enhanced by being inconspicuous, but when needed your there, thank you again.
As a known venue we pride ourselves on attention to detail, having you on-board has been a privilege and I wish you all the best for your new career as a full time Toastmaster and Master of ceremonies.
Once again thank you, see you soon.
Kind regards
Sally Clayden
Dear Kim
Thank you for being the Master of Ceremonies at our wedding on 13th June 2012 at Anstey Hall, Trumpington,Cambridge.
Prior to the day we met up to ensure you knew exactly what the running order of the day was. You advised of us how the day was likely to run and what the potential pitfalls were.
On the day you took over the running of the day straight after the ceremony, which ran with a wonderfully understated efficiency.
Throughout the day you were thoughtful, organised, prompt, discreet when required, attentive and also assertive when required.
I would recommend you as a Toastmaster and Master of Ceremonies to any of my friends.
Kind regards
Justin and Sharon Curtis
