Atwood protest begins Hudson Valley BDS
Margaret Atwood came to Bard College on Friday, May 21st to receive the Mary McCarthy award, after accepting the Dan David prize at Tel-Aviv University. Bard was hosting the President's dinner and awards ceremony at Fisher Center.
The protest was at the intersection of Annandale Rd. and Manor Ave. (on Bard campus) from 4:30 PM - 6:30 PM. We had about 18 people and were gathered along the road leading to the Fisher Center.
Our first BDS meeting was held at Doris' House at the end of the Bard Protest. 15 of us have formally started the Hudson Valley BDS movement.
Please join us for future events that we will post on this website.

Gonna Still Be Quoting Emerson When They Lock Me Up
Full article at:
Boycott? As my Palestinian friends in the West Bank and Gaza sink deeper into depression, watching their lives ticking away without the chance to give their kids (never mind themselves) a wholly free and dignified place in the sun, the Palestinian-led BDS movement for boycott, divestment, and sanctions doesnít look to me like a nefarious ìArab plotî anymore. Now, with international energy behind it, it seems like the last best hopeóboth for Israelis and for Palestinians. Maybe the BDS campaign will really develop enough heft to counter Israelís overwhelming military advantage, by upping the economic and social cost of self-defeating supremacist-separatist policies . . . until even total equality for Palestinians might begin to seem like the less scary alternative!
Deciding to endorse BDS was not something I have come to out of hatred for Israel, despite what the talkbacks will say. I live here, after all; Iíd like to see this country get a life. Everything else has already been tried, and my friend Sam and his family are still locked up in Al Bireh and my friend Maha and her family are still locked up in Gaza City and I cannot, in good conscience, sit here in my pleasant little village near Jerusalem in silence and play it safe while they and millions of other Palestinians sit in their respective cages. Iím not an ideologue and I canít say I much like the basic idea of boycotts: they are nonviolent but they run on a kind of negative energy (donít buy, donít sell, donít invest, donít visit . . . ). On the other hand, the relentless, intensifying dehumanization of people I love and respect would seem to leave me no choice. Inaction is not an option.
Note that the BDS strategy targets, not Israel itself or Israelis as such, but rather Israeli transgressions of international law and the Israeli authorities and institutions that drive those transgressions and the Israeli cultural icons who refrain from denouncing them and the Israeli universities that cooperate with them. As a law-abiding Israeli, I am not in favor of Israelís (or anyoneís) transgressions of international law and therefore I must not support them with my silence. When I realized that the only thing still keeping me from publicly and prominently endorsing BDS was my fear of punishment (losing friends, losing a job, losing my personal freedom if the BDS activism here is finally, thoroughly, criminalized), I understood that it was time to speak out.

The Tides Are Changing in Palestine and Israel

Dear Margaret Atwood:
April 5, 2010
Margaret Atwood
c/o McClelland & Stewart
75 Sherbourne St., 5th Floor
Toronto, ON
Dear Margaret:
Back in 1981, I remember vividly that when the Toronto police raided several bathhouses and arrested 300 men, you agreed to speak out at a hastily arranged benefit — the first public figure to do so. Your courage meant a great deal to our gay community then, and your words were typically memorable: "Why on earth would the police object to cleanliness?"
I understand you're going to Israel in May, to accept the Dan David Prize at Tel Aviv University. Will you find words for the Gaza students who wrote to you yesterday, 44 miles down the coast, asking you to refuse the prize? Will you mention the ongoing siege of Gaza, and the larger occupation, whose check points and security wall have reduced the region to an apartheid state? Will you mention the two unarmed teenagers Mohammed Qadas, 16, and Asaud Qadus, 19, who were shot by Israeli army snipers last week? His aunt says that Mohammed had gone out to buy ice-cream. Why on earth would the army object to ice-cream?
I write today as a fan, someone whose life was changed on reading A Handmaid's Tale, someone who still treasures my rare edition of The Journals of Susanna Moodie. For decades, you've been an extraordinary role model for so many of us, embracing the role of artist as a figure of conscience. You've consistently spoken out against a host of injustices, even as you engaged with the complexities of each issue. In May, will you decline this prize, in recognition of the growing boycott movement which is trying to contribute to peace in the region? Will you at least speak out against the war crimes committed a year ago? Will you perhaps donate a portion to a writers group in Gaza? Will you at the very least acknowledge the complexities that this award, and this conflict, represent? Or will you remain silent, making us wonder: why on earth would Margaret Atwood of all people object to complexity?

Calling on Elton John
Palestinian civil society has called on Elton John to respect its boycott call and cancel his June 17th concert in Tel Aviv. If he does so, he'll be joining Santana and Gil-Scott Heron, who recently cancelled their spring concerts in Israel. This video suggests six reasons why Elton should join the BDS (boycott, divestment, sanctions) movement.

From Anna Baltzer
Dear friends,
A lot has been happening over the past few weeks, particularly within the global movement for Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS). It may not feel like much if I'm the only list you're on, but there are new campaigns and votes all the time. The most recent vote at UC San Diego last Wednesday was sent to committee. You can
http://oeoj.ucsd.edu/Divestment_Resolution.pdf read the resolution, http://www.petitiononline.com/sddivest/petition.html sign the petition, and/or http://as.ucsd.edu/council/roster.php?class=council send a letter of support.
I want to tell you about three initiatives - a statement, a book, and an assembly - by Jewish Americans supporting BDS. Here they are, in order
Below is a statement I worked on with Hannah Mermelstein, Nava Etshalom, and Amy Kaplan and an accompanying video. I invite others to read, watch, sign, and/or support the initiative. It speaks for itself∑
Recommended: Click here to Watch the Video! http://bit.ly/cXNXU4
We are Jews from the United States, who, like Jewish people throughout the world, have an automatic right to Israeli citizenship under Israel's "law of return."
Today there are more than seven million Palestinian refugees around the world. Israel denies their right to return to their homes and land˜a right recognized and undisputed by UN Resolution 194, the Geneva Convention, and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Meanwhile, we are invited to live on that same land simply because we are Jewish.
We renounce this "right" to "return" offered to us by Israeli law. It is not right that we may "return" to a state that is not ours while Palestinians are excluded and continuously dispossessed.
In 1947-49, Zionist militias destroyed more than 500 Palestinian villages and made more than 800,000 Palestinian people refugees in order to create a Jewish state on land where the majority was not Jewish. It is Palestinians who have the right to return to their own land.
Now in Gaza, where more than three quarters of the people are refugees, the State of Israel not only denies the population its right of return, but also incarcerates the entire Gaza Strip under illegal and inhumane siege conditions.
We reject the notion that Israel is a "safe haven" from anti-Semitism for Jews. No one is truly safe when the price of that "security" is oppression, inequality, and occupation of another people.
Today there is a growing transnational movement for boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) against Israel, called for by Palestinian civil society and supported by activists, artists, and academics around the world, including an increasing number of conscientious Israelis. As part of this campaign, we pledge to boycott the "law of return." As an act of political and ideological divestment, we repudiate the claims the State of Israel makes on us as potential citizens.
We protest Israel's colonial policies and discriminatory laws toward the Palestinian people, as well as the U.S. government's political and financial support of these policies.
We hereby renounce Israel's "law of return" and refuse to lend the state our support, resources, or passports.

Although it should not be exaggerated, these three initiatives are testimony to a continuing shift in Jewish consciousness on this issue. It is no longer an extraordinary thing to meet Anti-Zionist Jews in the United States, and

No, Miley Cyrus does not make programming decisions for Netflix, but her influence should never be underestimated. Variety confirmed Wednesday that Grace and Frankie, the Netflix series starring Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda as enemies who find solidarity when their husbands leave them for each other, will live to see a second season. And the show's co-creator Marta Kauffman is thanking Cyrus for doing her part.
"Let me say, it's so awesome to do a show on Netflix," Kauffman said in a statement. "Because two and a half weeks after we launched, Miley Cyrus does a tweet about your show, and they call and say, 'We'd like to do a season two.'"
The show has been praised for creating leading roles for women over 70 in an industry that's frequently wont to do so, as well as for its normalization of same-sex marriage. Miley Cyrus would likely agree on all counts.

More on Solar Power…

and why I don't work with it.
There are several reasons, the main one being that it just doesn't make sense for my customers, except in a few cases such as electric fences, possibly a very isolated cattle tank, and a few others.
But if you need an appreciable amount of power, it's ROI is so long you will be starting over before you pay it off. There are tax rebates available, Federal and state which may help, if your making that much money. I have read NPPD's manual for interconnection and it is expensive and complicated. Can it be done, sure. If you are a greenie instead of a practical Nebraskan like me. Heck, I'll even help you. after all, my ROI on labor and materials sold is not too shabby but; I won't recommend it. Steve Maley has a lot to say this morning also, I suggest you read it.

Local Artist to Create Mosaic Mural for Sharp Coronado Hospital
Creation will be inspired by art submitted by the community
Her artwork can be recognized throughout the island of Coronado. One could say the waves, flowers, and nature scenes used in her mosaics come from scenes she grew up with every day. Born and raised in Coronado, local artist Kirstin Green has created and installed dozens of mosaic projects around town, from Spreckels Park to the Coronado Municipal Golf Course to the Brian Bent Memorial Aquatics Complex. Now, Green is about to create an 89-square-foot mosaic mural (9'5" x 9'5"), in the Healing Garden of Sharp Coronado Hospital – using art submitted by members of the community as her inspiration.
"I am excited to embark on this new project and to get input from this great community," said Green. "The first hour will be spent making a visual art piece to the prompt 'What does healing look like?' and the second hour will be spent with each participant telling a short story of healing, of grief and loss, or some other experience they have had that has inspired their artwork."
Beginning mid-January, Green will lead five, free, two-hour Community Art Forums in the auditorium of the Sharp Coronado Hospital. Participants only need to attend one of the sessions. The dates and times are as follows:
The art pieces will be used as an inspirational tool for Green in the design of the mural. No single art piece created by the community members will be chosen for the design, rather the artist will study and group them together in an attempt to understand common imagery, patterns and other design elements that will contribute a healing feeling to the final design.
Green will use arts-based research that will be conducted prior to her creating the design. This research will be done through the group design sessions that will give patients and community members a voice and a sense of participation and ownership in this project. The design will be designed in accordance with the aesthetics of the Planetree, person-centered care concept that governs the décor of the entire hospital grounds.
"Kirstin's work is so well recognized, admired and enjoyed throughout Coronado," said Susan Stone, senior vice president and chief executive officer of Sharp Coronado Hospital. "We are excited that she'll be working on this project for our Healing Garden and involving the community in what the final piece will look like."
Later this summer, upon completion of the mural and garden, there will be an unveiling celebration at Sharp Coronado Hospital. At this event, the artworks created at the five Community Art Forums will be displayed in a group exhibition entitled, like the prompt, "What Does Healing Look Like?" The participants and community at large will have a chance to look at all the works together at this event. Once the event is over, the participating artists will be invited to take their pieces home with them.
Green has been working as a mosaic artist in her hometown of Coronado for nearly two decades. She was born at Coronado Hospital and her mother was head nurse and administrator for the Coronado Hospital Emergency Room for 46 years. Green is currently enrolled in the Expressive Arts Institute and pursuing a Master's degree in Expressive Arts Therapy. Learn more about Kirstin at this link: http://coronadoarts.com/directories/kirstin-green/
# # #
Forum sizes are limited to 10 people and participants need not have had previous art experience or skills. The classes are free and all materials are provided Interested participants can register for one of the free Community Art Forums at https://www.sharp.com/health-classes/ or by calling 1-800-82-SHARP (1-800-827-4277).

My questions about Riverdale and its nosedive of a second season are directed mostly at the writers and showrunner Roberto Aguirre Sacasa, not the cast. I'm less annoyed with the cast. I still think they are all pretty spot on – and very pretty. It's the writing and overly ridiculous plotlines that are making me about ready to give up on Riverdale. Full Story

Brooklyn, New York City
Other Neighborhoods
Flatbush Town Hall in Brooklyn by Jim Henderson
Bensonhurst is another neighborhood in southwest Brooklyn and home for many Italian Americans.
Jewish and Italian immigrants initially settled in Bensonhurst during
the early part of the 20th century. By the 1950s, a wave of Italian
immigrants arrived and many of the Jewish residents left to other neighborhoods in New York City. Though considered an Italian American
neighborhood, Bensonhurst is now home for many ethnic Chinese, Russians, and Latin Americans.
Centering on 8th Avenue and 59th Street in Sunset Park is Chinatown with its Chinese owned businesses including restaurants and shops. Every year (January or February), Brooklyn's Chinatown greets the coming of the Chinese Lunar New Year with a celebration. In the middle class neighborhood of Bay Bridge, there is a community of Italians, Irish, Greeks, and Scandinavians. In the last two decades, residents from the Middle East have also settled in Bay Bridge.
Sunset Park neighborhood in Brooklyn by Matthew Jording
Bedford-Stuyvesant is home for many African Americans who migrated to the neighborhood during and after the Second World War. The neighborhood is the heart of the African American community in Brooklyn as Harlem is in Manhattan. Today, Bedford-Stuyvesant is also home for the African-Caribbean community. Nearly 80% of the residents in Bushwick are Hispanic Americans including Puerto Ricans, Hondurans, and Mexicans. Sadly, this neighborhood experiences a high rate of poverty and crime.

What Should I Feed My Hyperthyroid Cat?
"What's the best diet to feed my hyperthyroid cat?"
The best diet for your hyperthyroid cat satisfies his/her nutritional requirements as an aging carnivore recovering from a muscle-wasting disease, and avoids chemicals that may contribute to thyroid disease. We encourage you to read cat food labels and consider these guidelines.
It is best to feed:
Canned or raw diets, that contain little to no fruits, vegetables, or grains. Any canned cat food is better than any dry, which contains too much carbohydrate and plant-based protein. Meat by-products are fine for carnivores: they're simply protein sources such as organ meats and entrails that people don't find appetizing. Gravy foods tend to be high in carbs, so pates are a better choice.
Motivated cat owners may check out the website (www.catinfo.org), which gives nutrient breakdown of various prescription and over-the-counter diets in the link "Protein/Fat/Carbs Chart". It turns out that many of the otc canned diets have an acceptable composition of these, and are reasonably low in phosphate, i.e.:
- >40% meat protein (>12g/100 kcal)
- <10 % carbohydrates
- 50 % fat
- <250 mg/100kcal phosphate
Note: these percentages are based on dry matter, metabolizable energy, unlike those on the can label
It may be best to avoid:
- SOY-containing foods
- BPA in canned food linings
- Fish
- Plastic food and water bowls (replace with glass, ceramic or metal)
- Storing food in plastic containers
- Ultra-high or ultra low iodine diets

You are already owning a home insurance yet not included home contents in your policy. You might not be aware of what exactly is covered under your policy and end up facing a financial burden when any of your personal belongings is lost or stolen. When you think about replacing the item, you will end up burning a hole in your own pocket. Home contents insurance is needed even when you live in a rented house or opting for a loan from any lender to buy a home.
Things to Consider!
With home contents insurance, not everything in your home will be eligible for claims when lost, damaged or stolen. Any standard policy will cover most of the items at your home which are not part of or attached to the building's structure. Only precious and of higher value such as jewelery, antiques, cash or credit cards need that extra consideration. They are considered as scheduled property or you will need to include them under endorsements in your policy.
When buying a home contents insurance, it is your responsibility to provide accurate value of your valuables to the insurer. Remember that higher value items will result in more premium. Do not under estimate or purposely under value any of the precious item just lower your premium rates, as the result will be bad when a claim is made. Before you value any item, be it old or newly purchased, always check for it's current market value and then you draw an estimation.
Home contents insurance policy is not same all over, it differs from state to state and from one company to another similar to any home insurance policy. It is always suggested to do a thorough research, shop around, compare rates and then buy the policy which suits your current needs. Check your policy's terms and conditions before you sign on the dotted line.

In March of this year, after Giant Food held its first vendor meeting as part of the now decentralized Ahold Delhaize USA (ADUSA), I needled then-president Gordon Reid about when his brand would become a totally autonomous merchandising organization. Those merchandising services, particularly with many center store categories, was still being "shared" with sister brand Stop & Shop, based in Quincy, MA.
The always blunt Scotsman, who ironically took the helm of ADUSA's larger Stoppie unit last month, said that day was close at hand as Giant was close to achieving the benchmarks that the parent firm laid out when the decentralized plan was first announced in 2017.
That day has now arrived and in 12 months the merchandising transition from Stop & Shop to Giant Food will have been completed.
A joint letter from Tonya Herring, Giant's senior VP-merchandising, and Mark Messier, Stop & Shop's executive VP-merchandising, said the discontinuance of the shared agreement will now allow Giant to "set up its own category, promo entry and cost & deal teams."
One area that should benefit Giant almost immediately is a better focus in the company's "Great Brand Made Easy" brand strategy which differs from Stop & Shop's marketing approach.
Herring and Messier also noted that "these strategic shifts give Giant Food greater customization in food selections and strategically positions Giant Food to respond to its diverse market demand with greater agility and flexibility, while delivering on its three-pronged brand promise: ease, assortment and experience…both of our brands are excited for this change and feel that this decision is in the best interest of both organizations and will enable more competitive, strategic and responsive promotional planning and ad development, increased regional relevance and independent commercial planning, among other benefits, resulting in increased value for both of our brands and our supplier partners."
Clearly this shift will make Giant more efficient, but the announcement also signals something more tacit. When ADUSA implemented its decentralized brand strategy19 months ago, all of the big retailer's other operating divisions – Giant/Martin's, Food Lion, Hannaford, Peapod and Stop & Shop – were given full independence.
For too long Giant Food, the 83-year old merchant, founded in Washington, DC by the Cohen and Lehrman family, was perceived by many in the Ahold organization as kind of a red-headed stepchild, where division presidents would ride the merry-go-round for a few years before giving way to another short-term leader.
That apathy and neglect led to a significant decline in the company's sales and earnings (although it never relinquished its leadership position in the B-W market) over a nearly 20-year period since Ahold acquired it in 1998. Even after European mega-retailers Ahold and Delhaize announced that they would merge in 2016, speculation was rampant that Giant Food, plagued by eroding revenue and expensive union contracts, would be divested.
Things began to change, though, when Gordon Reid arrived in 2013. Appointed by then-Ahold USA COO James McCann (who worked with Reid at Tesco), Reid had worked for half a dozen retailers all over the world. He was experienced and tenacious and he was kind. Reid was also a great listener who quickly discovered that many Giant associates possessed the talent and will needed for success but were frustrated and indifferent because of the way they had been ignored for years.
Reid proved to be a tireless crusader for Giant, instilling a sense of self confidence and "can-do" in his team that the company hadn't seen since Izzy Cohen and Pete Manos ruled the roost. The men in Amsterdam also took notice. The numbers were improving, and the intangibles were strong, too.
There's still a lot of work to do, and new interim president Ira Kress, who's been with the Landover organization for 35 years, certainly understands how tough, fragile and competitive this business is.
Every little bit helps and giving Giant full control of its merchandising programs is another positive step for a company that is in a good place right now.
'Round the Trade
Amazon has reported strong overall sales and earnings for Q2 (ended June 30), but once again failed to move the needle substantially at its physical stores. Total revenue surged 20 percent to $63.4 billion and operating income increased 3.3 percent to a whopping $3.1 billion. Amazon's "Prime" subscription service was a big driver – memberships (at $119 per year) increased 37 percent and brought in $4.67 billion for the quarter. And what a cash lever that is; Amazon can pocket about $20 billion annually from subscription revenue without any designated expense outlay. However, sales at its physical stores – 500 Whole Foods, 13 "Go" c-stores, and a few other assorted bricks and mortar units – increased only 0.4 percent to $4.31 billion. And while it's true that the company has deftly utilized its WFM locations as distribution hubs while also giving its "Prime" members additional promotional opportunities, not much has changed in the 25 months since "Godzilla" took the reins in Austin. And while there seems to be little doubt that Amazon will unveil a new type of physical food retailing venture in the next six to nine months, the same whispers can be heard: "Can the company be the same type of game changer that it's been against other retail segments?" It's still early, but the answer thus far is – not yet…Price Rite, the discount unit of powerful Wakefern Corp., has completed another round of store upgrades which began in late 2018. Beginning this month, 17 stores in Pennsylvania, New York, Massachusetts and Connecticut will be updated and feature new store designs, and expanded fresh and private label offerings. About 40 percent of Price Rite's 64 units will have been improved when this round of rollouts is completed. The company, under the skilled hand of president Jim Dorey, said it will complete the rest of its store upgrades (including units in Maryland, Virginia, Rhode Island, New Jersey, New Hampshire and New York) during 2020. More Wakefern news: the Keasbey, NJ cooperative wholesaler will open a 24,300 square foot micro fulfillment center in Clifton, NJ specifically to serve online customers at one of the wholesaler's larger members – Inserra Supermarkets. Utilizing robotics, the customized fulfillment warehouse will handle both delivery and pickup orders for about a dozen of Inserra's 23 stores in New Jersey and New York. If all goes well, expect more of these mini-warehouses to open in the future to serve other ShopRite operators.
More hybrid digital/bricks and mortar stuff: as it attempts to further integrate its physical stores with its digital operations, Walmart has made a series of executive changes designed to create a more efficient shopping experience. Greg Smith who headed the Behemoth's bricks and mortar supply chain, will now lead both platforms and report to Greg Foran, CEO of Walmart's U.S. stores and Marc Lore, CEO of e-commerce. Assisting with that integration will be Nate Faust, who came aboard after the Bentonville, AR-based retailer acquired jet.com in 2016 as head of e-commerce fulfilment. Faust will be given a new role once those units are fully merged. Additionally, Ashley Buchanan will become the new chief merchandising officer for U.S. e-commerce, reporting to Lore. All told, about 20 Walmart executives are impacted but not all departments will be integrated according to company CEO Doug McMillon, because "we are choosing to maintain some structural separation to enable focus and speed, including our U.S. merchandising organization."…Walmart's chief bricks and mortar rival, Target, is having its most success with its new small format stores, a concept that was begun about five years ago. According to a piece in Inc. magazine, the Minneapolis mass merchant has found that a combination of pinpointing demographics in urban locations (its store in Herald Square in Manhattan is the best of the new lot), product offerings and SKU rationalization, had opened up a new profitable silo for Target. The story notes that the retailer could open as many as 30 new smaller format stores annually over the next few years.
Large food brokerage firm Acosta, which has struggled mightily with balance sheet issues over the past year, named its third CEO in less than nine months. The national brokerage firm, which late last year riffed many key management members while trying to restructure and streamline its business, has selected Darian Pickett, a 28-year veteran of the Jacksonville, FL-based company, to fill the post. Pickett was most recently the firm's chief client officer. He succeeds Alejandro Rodriguez Bas, who was named CEO by parent private equity firm, The Carlyle Group, last July. Bas proved to be a bad fit from the outset, unable to connect with the Acosta culture, its customers and some of its clients. At the time of his appointment, Bas filled an open position created by Steve Mattheson's departure six months earlier (he only lasted 18 months). While Pickett will certainly provide more stability and a better connection with the Acosta team, the company's $3 billion debt load remains large and critical. With its restructuring last year, industry sources estimated that Acosta could save $30 million annually in expenses. Of course, that comes at a cost when considering the value of the talent that was pushed out and the subsequent loss of such key accounts as McCormick and Clorox. We wish Pickett the best of luck – he will certainly need that and more…
Crossmark, one of Acosta's prime competitors, has restructured its financing and as such, has reduced its debt by 75 percent. In a letter to Crossmark's associates, CEO Steve Schuckenbrock stated, "…through this transaction, Crossmark has the strongest balance sheet among national sales and marketing agencies, the financial flexibility to further invest in our leading capabilities and offerings and new ownership that is aligned with our objectives." The Plano, TX-based brokerage, which had been owned by PE firm, Warbrug Pincus since 2012, is reportedly now controlled by its lenders including affiliates of large investment management firms Invesco and Eaton Vance. In addition to debt reduction, the new creditors reportedly exchanged $90 million of existing second-lien loans for warrants that would entitle holders to a 7.5 percent equity stake in the future. Additionally, Crossmark reportedly received a new $75 million credit facility to provide working capital and letters of credit to finance operations…on the federal legislative level, The U.S. House of Representatives has voted to increase the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour within six years. The vote was 231-199 to raise the minimum wage from its current $7.25 an hour which went into effect 12 years ago. The new bill, if passed by the U.S Senate and President Trump (which will be a much tougher hurdle to leap), would raise employees' wages to $8.35 an hour in three months. It would rise each following year by approximately $1.30 until hitting $15 in 2025. Of course, most minimum wage controversies are being played out at the state level, where markets like Washington, DC, Maryland, Pennsylvania and New Jersey are trending towards a $15 minimal level, an amount already in place in New York City. And it looks like food stamps (SNAP benefits) are going to take another hit as the USDA (in a proposal supported by Trump) seeks to close a loophole in the current system where certain individuals, who are part of a separate national program called Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), but aren't necessarily financially qualified to receive food stamps, are automatically eligible to gain SNAP benefits. If the measure is passed, the USDA said it would save taxpayers $2.5 billion annually and cut 3.1 million people from its current membership rolls.
Local Notes
UNFI just finished its annual national trade show (formerly the Supervalu Expo) in St. Paul, MN and, although we weren't there this year (I can't imagine why we weren't invited), there was plenty of buzz from the company's independent retailers. Not so much about the show, but about the appearance of mystery men Steve Spinner, CEO of UNFI, and Sean Griffin, chief executive of SVU and COO of UNFI, at the confab. The two top UNFI leaders had been viewed as "MIA" by many of the company's independent customers who had not met with either man since UNFI acquired Supervalu last October. The reviews were generally encouraging among the independents we spoke with who said that both Spinner and Griffin were apologetic about not communicating more effectively with them during the past nine months and vowed to more aggressively address issues dealing with item selection, billing and private label. "I've got to give both of them credit for seeking out face-to-face meetings with us," said one of UNFI's larger Mid-Atlantic customers. "They clearly understood that we haven't been happy with the transition and have also been very frustrated about the poor communications. It's encouraging that they seemed to comprehend our issues and said would be more hands-on in trying to improve. However, this is really about execution and I'm still questioning whether UNFI has the ability to meet our needs as full-service supermarket operators." Among the Providence, RI-distributor's biggest challenges, and one unrelated to its core independent business, is the disposition of the more than 40 Shoppers stores which remain open in the B-W market. Sales are beginning to really nosedive, and, again, there was no movement in the past 30 days. However, UNFI's fiscal ended on July 27, so there's some expectation that the company will dump its Shoppers "problem" (expected loss/write down) in Q1 or Q2 of fiscal 2020.
I feel very badly about the announcement that specialty foods distributor DPI will close its Mid-Atlantic headquarters sometime in Q4 of this year. Apparently, the situation came down to capital investment, and as PE companies are inclined to do, parent firm Arbor Investments chose not to further finance DPI's Mid-Atlantic unit, which was beginning to rebuild and had attracted an impressive group of retail customers including Giant Food, Giant/Martin's, Weis Markets and Kroger's stores east of the Mississippi. The hard part of this story is the loss of jobs. About 250 associates, many who've been with the company for lotsa of years, will be displaced. And some of them called us to vent a bit about their severance packages which we're told is only four weeks of salary, without regard to length of service, for sales and office associates. We're also told that DPI's unionized warehouse associates and truck drivers will receive a maximum of 12 weeks of compensation based on length of service.
Publix has gotten the green light from Guilford County (NC) officials to begin construction on its planned $400 million distribution center near Greensboro, NC. The facility, which is expected to be completed by the end of 2022, will be the Lakeland, FL-based retailer's 10th DC and its northernmost warehouse. The company's stores in North Carolina and Virginia are currently served by a distribution center in Dacula, GA, which is about 325 miles from Greensboro and approximately 500 miles from Richmond.
A tip of the hat to Giant/Martin's, Weis and Redner's for once again hosting their annual charity golf outings. All three retailers do a great job of saluting their vendors while also raising millions of dollars for mainly local charities.
From the obit desk, we have some deaths to report. I was saddened to hear of the passing of Jack DiFiore, 89, former president of A&P's Super Fresh division, and one of the good guys in our business. A native of Camden, NJ, "Gentleman Jack" joined the Tea Company in 1949. He rose through the ranks, becoming president of the chain's Super Fresh unit in 1984. He later became COO of A&P's Waldbaum's banner in the 1990's before retiring. I have only good things to say about Jack – he was kind and fair and always willing to discuss the challenges that his company was facing…one of Broadway's leading lights for the past 50 years, Hal Prince, has left us. Prince, 91, directed some of the theatre's greatest musicals, including "Cabaret," "The Phantom Of The Opera" and "Sweeny Todd." Earlier in his career, Prince produced such groundbreaking shows as "West Side Story," "Damn Yankees" and "Fiddler On The Roof." Born and raised in new York City, Prince said he fell in love with the theater at the age of eight, when he attended a production of "Julius Caesar" starring Orson Wells. All told, Hal Prince won an astonishing 21 Tony Awards…I am very sad to report the passing of NFL Hall of Fame linebacker Nick Buoniconti. The Notre Dame alumnus played in the league for 15 years and was named to the Pro Bowl eight times. He also won two Super Bowls, one of which as a member of the undefeated Miami Dolphins in 1973. However, Buoniconti's off the field contributions were more important. After his son Marc was paralyzed after making a tackle in 1985 playing for The Citadel, Buoniconti created the Miami Project, which sought a cure for paralysis. He worked tirelessly to raise money and bring greater awareness to the challenges facing those who have been paralyzed. "Today, with a heavy heart and profound sorrow, my family and the entire Miami Project To Cure Paralysis and Buoniconti Fund community mourn the loss of a man who was truly larger than life, my father, NFL Hall of Famer Nick Buoniconti," Marc said. "My dad has been my hero and represents what I have always aspired to be: a leader, a mentor and a champion." In later life Buoniconti, 78, struggled with memory loss issues which he thought were CTE related as a result of his football career. He vowed to donate his brain to CTE research when he diefind.
Finally, it's with mixed feelings that I report the sale of one Washington's greatest eating and drinking establishments – the Clyde's Restaurant Group (CRG). The new owner is Graham Holdings, Inc. (yes, the same family that owned the Washington Post until 2013). Clyde's has been around since 1963 when local entrepreneur Stuart Davidson opened a small pub in Georgetown and hired Georgetown student John Laytham as a dishwasher. Laytham rose through the ranks, ultimately becoming Davidson's partner. Together they expanded their local empire to 13 locations (including the Old Ebbitt Grill near the White House, which is the highest grossing eatery in DC). Davidson passed away in 2001, Laytham died earlier this year and the company was discreetly put up for sale. Arlington, VA-based Graham Holdings, whose annual sales last year were $2.7 billion, also owns businesses in healthcare, education and media. In the early years of Food World, my retired partner Dick Bestany and I practically lived at the Clyde's location in Columbia, MD. We conducted business, made many friends and perhaps were over-served on a few occasions. Those memories will last forever and continue today (especially when I dine there). One of those friends we met in the early 1980s was Tom Meyer, who came to Columbia as a chef and quickly moved through the ranks at Clyde's. Today, he's president of the CRG and we're happy to note will be remaining in that role in the new organization. That's good news for everyone involved.

So how did your meeting go?
aww cute
I just met this guy. We have been dating for almost three months. We live alomost 50 miles apart. So we only see each other on the weekends. We've had several arguments where he broke up with me, and I just talked him back into being with me.
OK, what I mean is was she giving you lots of eye contact, smiling right at you, including you, turning her feet toward you.
another one close to "the club". Definitely worth a look :P
respectfully disagree, sir
Thoughts? Should I avoid doing this? I really dont want to just stop talking to her. I would rather she just tell me so I can move on.
That posture, turn, semi lean, or whatever it is. Perfection! Absolutely perfect size imo :)
Will upload more of both of them soon. (List #5993)

On Jan. 9, when temperatures in nearby Yorkton, Saskatchewan, reached a low of about 10 degrees fahrenheit, Kristyn Eftoda and her husband Wade were commuting home on a highway near Dropmore, Manitoba, when they noticed that the road was a sheet of ice. That's when Wade, in a moment of inspiration, grabbed his skates.
The Eftodas were on Highway 482, according to the CBC, around 240 miles northwest of Winnipeg.
Wade knew the road well. Kristyn said that he had grown up driving on that highway and had never seen the road look that clear, or that beautiful.
"We both made a new year's resolution to live more simply, to enjoy each moment. This was an opportunity to do that."
Dropmore is in the middle of the Canadian Prairies, where temperatures frequently drop to below zero in the deepest, darkest parts of winter, meaning that the Eftodas—and anyone else willing to brave it—will probably have plenty more opportunities to come to have a skate on their way home.

Los Angeles, California, is home to sun-soaked beaches, the iconic Hollywood sign, and stars of stage, screen, and sky. From the scenic Palos Verdes Drive to the south of the city, where clifftops and wide beaches offer a break from busier Downtown L.A., to Hollywood, where you can literally stand in your favorite celebrity's footsteps at TCL Chinese Theater, L.A. has so much to offer.
Picnic in the outdoor amphitheatre at The Hollywood Bowl, the summer home of the L.A. Philharmonic. Visit Silver Lake and climb the neighborhood's decorated staircases for a different kind of hiking experience, or take in the ocean views from the Getty Center, a free art museum with gardens and lawns for relaxing post-visit.
As the sun sets over Los Angeles, gaze up at the stars from the Griffith Observatory or enjoy one of its many exhibits. Meanwhile, in Beverly Hills, rooftop bars, cocktail lounges, and exclusive nightlife haunts open their doors for you to enjoy a night on the town. Be sure to treat yourself to a champagne brunch the following morning at any one of the area's refined eateries. For star sightings, there's no better place than The Ivy.

These results are exciting, but I'm hesitant to recommend cod liver oil. Yes, it's rich in vitamin D--about 1,360 IU per tablespoon (most experts now recommend at least 1,000 IU daily). But some brands also contain excessive amounts of vitamin A per daily serving, and higher doses can be toxic, leading to bone and hair loss, mental confusion, and liver damage. In addition, cod liver oil comes from the livers of fish, which may be contaminated with toxins.
Instead, I recommend purified fish oil supplements that are guaranteed to be free of contaminants. Like cod liver oil, they contain omega-3 fats, which studies show reduce depression and high blood pressure, help prevent heart disease, and ease symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. Because it's difficult to get adequate amounts of vitamin D from food, consider taking at least 1,000 IU a day in the D3 form.

Nowadays, there are many devices that people can buy from the market. Almost all of these devices can bring many benefits to people. One of the items that they can purchase from the market today is the PlayStation 4, the latest model for this console. By using this device, people will be able to destress by playing the various games in the device, connecting to the internet to do some web surfing, or watching movies or TV series that they are hooked in. In order for them to get all of these features, they must have a PSN code. The great news is that people can get PSN codes for free. Listed below are some of the reasons why people should get these free PSN codes.
Saves Time and Energy
One of the reasons why people should get their hands on free ps4 codes is because of the fact that this will save them a lot of time and energy. They will not have to get out of their house and go to a store that sell PSN codes because they can just go online and look for a PSN code generator in the internet. This is such an advantage for those people who have a very hectic schedule and do not have a lot of spare time to buy any PSN codes.
No Need To Spend Money Anymore
One of the greatest advantages that people will surely experience when they get free psn codes is that they will no longer have to spend $100, $50 nor $20 just to have a PSN code because, when they use a PSN code generator from the internet, they will not spend any money at all! The services of the PSN code generators online are free. Aside from this, these sites are easy to use and will only take people short periods of time to get the PSN code that they want or need for their PlayStation 4 consoles.

Rules and handicap changes information sessionWe've all got plenty to learn with major rules and handicapping system reforms on the horizon – starting in January.Our competitions and handicap committees have set up an information evening in the clubhouse on Thursday 6 December at 7pm to help get members up to speed on one of the biggest ever shake-ups of golf governance.The information evening will cover three key areas:1. Rule changes which come into force on 1 January 20192. The results of a recent course assessment which will rank Chesterfield Golf Club in terms of difficulty in comparison with every other course in the new world system3. How the new World Handicapping System will operate when introduced in 2020Our own handicap guru Paul Bywater will be joined by competitions chairman Tim Roberts and Derbyshire County Golf's Peter McGrath to deliver the session, which is expected to last around two hours.Most imminent are the rule changes which come into force for the new year. Copies of the Players' Edition of the Rules of Golf are available in the golf club foyer. Some of the headlines:• Search time – reduced from 5 mins to 3 mins• Ball moved during search – replace no penalty• Embedded ball – free relief anywhere on course• Dropping – from knee height• Double hit – no penalty• Touching ground in penalty area – no penalty• All damage to green can be repaired• Ball accidentally moved on putting green – replace without penaltyBut these are just the highlights, there's lots to get to grips with. The rules presentation will begin with a video explaining the major rule changes, followed by a question and answer session.The new World Handicap System will bring huge changes. No longer will your handicap rise or fall determined solely by the score of your last qualifying round. Under WHS it will be determined using a complex formula which starts with an average of your best eight scores from your previous 20 rounds – factoring in course difficulty, conditions on the day, and a number of other factors.Six existing handicapping authorities are linked in the system: Golf Australia, the Council of National Golf Unions (CONGU) in Great Britain and Ireland, the European Golf Association (EGA), the South African Golf Association (SAGA), the Argentine Golf Association (AAG) and the USGA.So, in future, wherever you play in the world, your handicap will follow you across the globe, with adjustment dependant on the difficulty of the course.It really is a whole new world, which is going to cause a bit of head-scratching. But, for now, come to an information session at little old Chesterfield Golf Club to get to grips with the basics!Regards, Sean Posted on 20/11/2018 by Nick Roberts 5 comments (Add your own) 1 Stevchiecy - 09/01/2020 @ 7:02 PM Will Keflex Treat Gonorrhea Acheter Kamagra Livraison 24h Buy Propecia Europe Buy Cialis Pramipexole I Ts Reply 2 Matenrich - 21/01/2020 @ 11:30 PM Levitra Generico Farmacias Del Ahorro [url=http://cialibuy.com]Cialis[/url] Does Amoxicillin Really Expire Cialis Original Viagra Billig Reply 3 Stevchiecy - 24/01/2020 @ 7:10 PM Pfizer Patient Assistance [url=http://cialibuy.com]Buy Cialis[/url] Coumadin And Amoxicillin Interactions Cialis Propecia Online No Prescription Viagra Reply 4 Kelavathe - 28/01/2020 @ 3:18 AM Amoxil Clavulanique [url=http://cialibuy.com]cialis 5mg[/url] Amoxicillin Sinus cialis vs viagra Bentyl Irritable Bowel Syndrome Reply 5 Lesluro - 01/02/2020 @ 7:08 PM Sinus Infection Zithromax [url=http://buyciallisonline.com/#338]Cialis[/url] Viagra Jeune Homme Buy Cialis Viagra Women Effects Reply Add a New Comment Name: Email/URL (Optional): Comment: Enter the code: Cancel Comment Guidelines: No HTML is allowed.

Artist Studio at the Centre
Local artist Lisa O'Brien is currently running her studio from the Loch Torridon Community Centre. Visitors are welcome to look around and see her work in progress.
Lisa grew up in Sheffield and is now based on the West Coast of Scotland. She has always been open to working with various media and her practice over the years has encompassed performance, composition, video, sound, installation and more recently drawing and painting. She uses the media she finds most appropriate to the situation and the ideas she is exploring. Her work has been influenced by living in North West Scotland for the last 10 years and is often linked to the environment and weather conditions.
At the Centre, Lisa is exhibiting some of her drawing, painting and prints that she has worked on over the last couple of years. There are two sides to her work, one being more commercial and encompassing commissions, prints and cards focused on the local landscape and you can see this work in the studio. Alongside this she has continued to develop images using video stills, sound and exploring the idea of memory.
In August she will be taking part in "Remote Performances" at Outlandia - an artist's field station in Glen Nevis. Lisa will make field recordings of perceived silence in the rural setting and she will continue her exploration of developing a graphic notation to record nothingness, or what we think of as silence.
You can find out more about Lisa and her work from her website http://www.lisaobrien.co.uk/

A very successful Celtman weekend
'Thanks very much for your help over the weekend. Once again that facilities and support offered by you, your team, and the hall itself were first class. Celtman just wouldn't be possible without you all!.
The building is so obviously a much-loved space that the community is proud of – our athletes picked that up and commented on it. We're really pleased to be allowed to tap into that and help to promote links between the race and the community.'
Paul McGreal – Durty Events – www.cxtri.com
'Wow. What a weekend. My head is still spinning.
Thank you very much for your help, support, enthusiasm and positivity over the weekend. We've started to see race reports and comments come in, and they're all saying the same thing about our fantastic team;
- That was fantastic – I'm still on a high from the weekend. The marshalls were fantastic – great that I knew so many of them, plenty of support out on the course!
- Thank you and the rest of your team for running a tremendous event. The Celtman has to be without question the best event I've taken part in, not just the challenge on the day but the atmosphere surrounding the event, brilliant.
- A huge big thank you to you and all your team
It's not an easy event to volunteer at – it's a very long day in a very remote location. We really appreciate the huge time and effort you gave up to be there. I hope it was an enjoyable experience for you as well.'
Paul and Stuart
Many thanks
Irene and I want to express our appreciation for your help in arranging our wedding. We had a fantastic ceremony in a fantastic venue. We even suspect that the locals had a hand in the weather. It couldn't have been better. Thank you very much.

Retired Edinburgh GP in "Mad Gym Marathon"
Granddad Gerry in fundraising bid for L'Arche and Prostate Cancer UK – training in the Loch Torridon Community Centre Fitness Suite
On Saturday 1 June former Edinburgh GP, Gerry McPartlin, will attempt to run 30 miles in 6 hours on a treadmill in a Leith gym to raise money for L'Arche and Prostate Cancer UK.
69 year old Gerry – who currently lives in Applecross, Wester Ross, where he is Medical Officer to the Torridon Mountain Rescue Team – will attempt his 'mad marathon' on a treadmill at The Club, West Bowling Green Street, Leith (run by judo legend, George Kerr CBE, who is one of only five men in the world to be honoured as a tenth Dan).
Although a keen hill walker Gerry – who has recently been diagnosed with prostate cancer - is not a regular runner. He previously managed the 26 miles and 385 yards of the Edinburgh marathon, but that was 29 years ago!
Dr Gerry McPartlin, who was a GP at Edinburgh's Moira Park Surgery from 1982 – 2003, said: "I am aware of people referring to my plans as 'Granddad's Mad Gym Marathon,' and who am I to disagree? I am undeniably a proud Granddad, and what I'm doing could well be described as mad. Hopefully the madness will be worth it to raise funds and awareness of the work of two charities that are very close to my heart. Ask me on Sunday 2 June!"
Fiona Dunlop, Fundraising Manager at Prostate Cancer UK, said: "Gerry has recently had to come to terms with his own diagnosis with prostate cancer, and will shortly be undergoing surgery for the disease. For Gerry to be going to such lengths to raise funds to help others at such a time makes him a truly inspirational figure. We are extremely grateful to Gerry, and wish him every success with his 'Mad Gym Marathon' on 1 June."
Thank You

The enemies keep inviting Nehemiah to walk away from rebuilding the walls of the city and come meet them. Nehemiah says NO. And he completes the wall.
1. Now when it was reported to Sanballat, Tobiah, and to Geshem the Arabian, and to the rest of our enemies, that I had built the wall, and that there was no breach left in it (though even to that time I had not set up the doors in the gates)
2. Sanballat and Geshem sent to me, saying, "Come! Let's meet together in the villages in the plain of Ono." But they intended to harm me.
Sanballat and Geshem sent to me, saying, "Come! Let's meet. These men are troublemakers. They are insincere. Their motives are almost certainly malicious.
3. I sent messengers to them, saying, "I am doing a great work, so that I can't come down. Why should the work cease, while I leave it, and come down to you?"
This verse is fantastic! Would you consider memorizing it? More great verses to memorize from the Book of Nehemiah and from the entire Bible.
I am doing a great work. Nehemiah says no to these malicious men. Sometimes we must say NO.
I can't come down. Nehemiah sees going to them as a step downward. He will not stoop to their level.
4. They sent to me four times like this; and I answered them the same way.
four times like this. These enemies are trying to stop Nehemiah. At first, their strategy was very direct. They used direct physical intimidation. But that did not work. So the enemies switched to indirect means. They kept inviting Nehemiah to walk away from the project and come meet them.
5. Then Sanballat sent his servant to me the same way the fifth time with an open letter in his hand,
6. in which was written, "It is reported among the nations, and Gashmu says it, that you and the Jews intend to rebel. Because of that, you are building the wall. You would be their king, according to these words.
7. You have also appointed prophets to proclaim of you at Jerusalem, saying, 'There is a king in Judah!' Now it will be reported to the king according to these words. Come now therefore, and let's take counsel together."
8. Then I sent to him, saying, "There are no such things done as you say, but you imagine them out of your own heart."
9. For they all would have made us afraid, saying, "Their hands will be weakened from the work, that it not be done." But now, strengthen my hands.
10. I went to the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah the son of Mehetabel, who was shut in at his home; and he said, "Let us meet together in God's house, within the temple, and let's shut the doors of the temple; for they will come to kill you. Yes, in the night they will come to kill you."
11. I said, "Should a man like me flee? Who is there that, being such as I, would go into the temple to save his life? I will not go in."
12. I discerned, and behold, God had not sent him; but he pronounced this prophecy against me. Tobiah and Sanballat had hired him.
13. He hired so that I would be afraid, do so, and sin, and that they might have material for an evil report, that they might reproach me.
14. "Remember, my God, Tobiah and Sanballat according to these their works, and also the prophetess Noadiah, and the rest of the prophets, that would have put me in fear."
15. So the wall was finished in the twenty-fifth day of Elul, in fifty-two days.
16. When all our enemies heard of it, all the nations that were around us were afraid, and they lost their confidence; for they perceived that this work was done by our God.
17. Moreover in those days the nobles of Judah sent many letters to Tobiah, and Tobiah's letters came to them.
18. For there were many in Judah sworn to him, because he was the son-in-law of Shecaniah the son of Arah; and his son Jehohanan had taken the daughter of Meshullam the son of Berechiah as wife.
19. Also they spoke of his good deeds before me, and reported my words to him. Tobiah sent letters to put me in fear.
Tobiah sent letters to put me in fear. This is yet another attempt to intimidate Nehemiah.

The City of Hamilton, Ohio, held a groundbreaking ceremony for its first compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling station on April 4. The publicly accessible fast-fill station will have two dispensers with two hoses each and will be expandable to double that should demand grow.
The city currently has four CNG vehicles that can fuel there, and it has letters of intent from the Hamilton City School District and the Butler County Regional Transit Authority to fuel at the facility, Mark Murray, project manager for Underground Utilities, told Government Fleet.
"As far as we know, this will be the first publicly accessible [CNG fueling] station in southwestern Ohio," he said.
The project is estimated to cost $1.7 million, and the city received a $700,000 grant through the Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) program administered by the Ohio Department of Transportation.
The city has a fleet of about 300 vehicles, and the four CNG vehicles it already has currently fuel at a small time-fill station. The Underground Utilities department uses the CNG Ford Fusion, two Ford Transit Connect vans, and a Ford F-150, purchased with grant funding in 2011. Murray said the department has been happy with the CNG vehicles, and the city is continually evaluating expanding its CNG fleet.
"All our vehicles are evaluated when a request comes through to determine if the economics work to put them on CNG," he said.

Ridgeway Research are one of the UK's leading veterinary contract research organisations. Specialising in livestock studies for research and development projects they help their clients register new medicines or vaccines. Their clients include many of the top ten global animal health companies as well as individual farmers and veterinarians.
We have previously worked with Ridgeway Research; developing their branding and logo, updating Ridgeway Science website and developing the brand, marketing materials and website for P4 Rapid.
Ridgeway Research wanted a website that supported their vision to be the leading global provider of tailored animal health resources, delivering gold standard scientific research, product development and diagnostic services. Specifically, it needed to raise the profile of their contract research offering, increase the visibility of their reputation for excellence and better reflect their association with Ridgeway Science and P4 Rapid.
First, we had to create a better classification of Ridgeway Research's extensive range of services. Doing this would make the website more user friendly, easier to navigate and help visitors fully comprehend their wide range of veterinary health services. Keyword research helped inform our decision making. Given the technical nature of the content, each service within Ridgeway provided copy for us to edit. This ensured that not only did the whole site had a consistent tone of voice but also that given the complexity of the subjects the site was easy to read.
Given the complexity and size of the site, the overall design was kept very simple, based around the colour palette of their logo which we had designed previously.
Submission forms were also created to help with their customer management.
The website, built in WordPress, is fully responsive and uses Yoast for SEO.
We continue to work with Ridgeway Research providing print materials and marketing support.

Your car's engine relies on the oil that circulates through it. Oil provides lubrication, carries heat away and keeps damaging contaminants from building up.But to do all this, there has to be enough motor oil, flowing at sufficient pressure.
When there's a problem in the oil system, one or more warning lights will come on to alert you. If you see the low oil pressure or low oil level lights stay on after you start your vehicle, or come on while you're driving, you'll want to get it fixed quickly — your engine could get ruined if you don't.
What are the oil warning lights for?
Low oil pressure warning light: Your engine has many precision-made metallic parts, revolving or moving thousands of times per minute. These parts need to be constantly bathed in a pressurized shower of oil. Your engine's oil pump is responsible for doing this. A sensor threaded into one of the engine's oil passages keeps track of the pressure. If it gets too low, the oil pressure warning light will pop on.
This light typically uses a symbol of an old-style oil can with a drop of oil dripping from its spout.
Low oil level warning light: Your engine also requires a sufficient amount of oil. The low engine oil level warning light is usually linked to a float inside the oil pan. When the level gets lower than it should, an electrical switch inside the float will trigger the low oil level indicator. This may be a light on the dashboard or, on some vehicles, a message that appears in the driver information center.
The low oil level warning light is similar to the low oil pressure warning light. In addition to the oil can symbol, there may be a wavy or jagged line underneath.
Note: In some cars, oil pressure and oil level are monitored by two separate warning lights. In others, both functions are combined into one warning light. Check your owner's manual to verify how your warning lights are set up.
Why the oil warning lights can come on
Here are some of the reasons your oil warning lights are lit up.
Your oil level is too low
If you haven't checked your oil in a while, or if something is causing your engine to leak or burn oil, the level can drop to the point where the pump is sending out air along with whatever oil remains. This isn't the "minimum" or "add" mark on the dipstick — this is way below that. An inadequate amount of oil can cause a loss of oil pressure and can trigger either or both of your oil warning lights.
Solutions: Pull over and turn off your engine immediately. Let your vehicle sit for about five minutes, so that the oil can drain back into the oil pan. Check your oil level. If it's low, add fresh oil until it reads full. Check your owner's manual for the correct oil to use. Start your engine and let it idle for a minute. If the lights go out, you have solved the problem. If they stay on, turn off the engine and call your mechanic. You shouldn't drive the vehicle until it has been repaired.
If you simply forgot to check your oil for a while, then an oil and filter change, followed by more frequent oil level checks, should fix the problem.
If you have an oil leak, its source should be identified and repaired. You might notice stains or puddles under the car, or oil on engine parts under the hood. The engine might have a bad gasket or seal — a mechanic can identify and fix the faulty part.
Or, your engine might be burning some of its oil, especially if it has a lot of miles on it. This can be caused by worn cylinders, piston rings or valve train components allowing oil to migrate into the combustion chambers and get burned along with the gasoline. Look for black smoke coming out of your tailpipe under acceleration. Call your mechanic if you see any, but know that this may indicate expensive engine repairs ahead.
Your oil pump is bad
The oil pump in your engine works hard. When your engine is running, the pump must circulate oil to all the engine's moving parts. If it wears out or fails, it won't be able to provide proper oil pressure. When this happens, the oil pressure warning light will come on. You may also hear a strange noise coming from under the hood.
Solution: Shut off your vehicle immediately. Check the oil level after it has had several minutes to drain back into the oil pan. If the level is between the minimum and the maximum, do not drive the vehicle until it has been repaired. Call us. We can check the actual pressure being produced by the oil pump and make any necessary repairs.
Your oil filter is blocked
Your engine's oil filter is its first line of defense against contaminants. As the oil circulates through the engine, it passes through the filter, where dirt, metal particles and other bad things are trapped. If the filter gets overloaded, it can get blocked and cause low oil pressure.
Solution: Change your oil and filter at the recommended service intervals. A blocked filter is usually the result of leaving it, and the oil, in your engine for way too long.
Your sensor, wiring or warning light is bad
It is possible that the sensor, wiring or some other part of the warning light system can fail and turn on the light when there is no actual problem. If your engine sounds fine, and the oil level is correct, this could be the issue.
Solution: Shut off your vehicle and check the oil level after a few minutes. If everything seems normal, but the light keeps coming on, check with a mechanic. If you have a bad sensor, wiring or warning light, it can be repaired.
Your oil system is clogged with sludge
Some engines can produce sludge in the oil, which can clog up the intake in the oil pan, your oil filter and the oil passages in your engine. Neglecting the maintenance schedule, using the incorrect oil, or sometimes just poor engine design can lead to this situation. When it happens, the oil will have a hard time flowing, causing the oil pressure light to come on.
Solution: Stop driving and get your vehicle taken to a repair shop. Depending on how bad it is, the engine may need to be cleaned of sludge. Switching to synthetic oil, and changing it and the filter at the proper intervals, may solve your sludge problems.
Your engine is worn
If your car has a very high number of miles on it, it can experience the effects of engine wear. As moving parts like the crankshaft and the camshafts age, the clearances between these parts and the bearings they rotate within become larger. Oil flows through these larger openings more easily, lowering the oil pressure, and in extreme cases causing the warning light to illuminate.
Solution: A mechanic can verify the extent of your engine's wear issues, and whether the condition is terminal. The age, condition and current value of your vehicle may or may not support the cost of overhauling or replacing your engine. You may be able to switch to a thicker grade of oil to get the pressure back up and extend your engine's life.
Can I drive with the oil warning lights on?
In a word, no. Once that you see a red oil warning light, indicating that the oil system has either insufficient pressure or a shortage of oil, you should not drive your vehicle until it has been repaired. You could destroy your engine if you do so. Call your mechanic for further guidance, and schedule repairs right away.
