Venezuela's Attorney General Confirms 68 Deaths In Jail Fire
Tarek William Saab, Attorney General for Venezuela has confirmed on 28 March, about 68 people have been died in fire in the custody facility of Carabobo state police in Valencia, located in the mid of the nation, where an uprising allegedly broke out nearly dawn time.
Saab took his Twitter account to say that The Public Prosecutor's Office notifies the public that a sudden fire wrapped 68 people those are reportedly discovered dead.
Four prosecutors have been appointed to find out the reasons behind the terrible event occurred at the General Command of Carabobo.
The Attorney General for Venezuela also said in another post published on his Twitter account, initial investigations have shown that 66 men were among the dead and two were females, who were during the night visitors to the jail.
It is also explained by the prosecutor in his statement that the authorities have been handed over bodies to their relatives.
However, the complete probe to learn what happened as fire wrapped 68 persons in the detention of Carabobo state police in Valencia, also considers painful incident that caused dozens of Venezuelan families into mourning.
On other side, the relatives of dead prisoners told media reporters that the deaths in the jail because of fire came out in the result of burn injuries and asphyxia.
A 19-year-old prisoner, Yorman Salazar, whose mother Lissette Mendoza, told reporters that the jail authorities refused to tell anything about the incident, even she asked them to not treat them like dogs that they don't sprayed gas at them, although they kill them as if they were animals.
A number of onlookers told media that the fire started around 4:00 am (0800 GMT) on Wednesday, while all relatives of dead prisoners gathered at front of the police headquarters by demanding to get complete information about the uprising that led nearly 20 personnel of the Carabobo Police to start on tear gas into the compound.

Healy v. Beer Institute, Inc.
RESPONDENT: Beer Institute, Inc.
LOCATION: Boston Municipal Court
DECIDED BY: Rehnquist Court (1988-1990)
LOWER COURT: United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit
ARGUED: Mar 28, 1989
DECIDED: Jun 19, 1989
Jeffrey Ives Glekel - on behalf of the Appellees
Robert F. Vacchelli - on behalf of the Appellants
Facts of the case
Media for Healy v. Beer Institute, Inc.
Audio Transcription for Oral Argument - March 28, 1989 in Healy v. Beer Institute, Inc.
William H. Rehnquist:
We'll hear argument now in No. 88-449, John Healy v. The Beer Institute; No. 88-513, Wine and Spirits wholesalers of Connecticut v. The Beer Institute.
Mr. Vacchelli?
Robert F. Vacchelli:
Mr. Chief Justice, and may it please the Court.
This case is an action for declaratory judgment and injunction challenging the constitutionality of Connecticut's beer affirmation law.
Under Connecticut law brewers must post their prices once a month on the sixth day of the month, and at that time affirm or swear under oath that that price is no higher than the lowest then being offered in the surrounding states of Massachusetts, New York or Rhode Island.
The law... the price becomes effective on the first day of the next month and is effective all throughout that next month.
Also, under another provision of Connecticut law, brewers are free to change or lower their prices at any time elsewhere, and such a change or decrease in price does not constitute a violation of Connecticut law.
The law is challenged under the Commerce Clause, and three issues emerge: one, whether it contains an impermissible extraterritorial thrust and thus directly regulates commerce in other states; second, whether it constitutes protectionist legislation by neutralizing the competitive advantages in other states; and third, whether it is an indirect burden on interstate commerce.
We submit that the law passes muster under all three Commerce Clause tests and to whatever effect it has on interstate commerce, it is sanctioned by the Twenty-first Amendment to the United States Constitution.
Considering extraterritorial effect, the case of Brown-Forman is on point.
In that case, this Court struck down New York's affirmation law because it prevented brewers from lowering their prices in other states lower than that which was in effect in New York at the time.
The Court noted that that constituted an impermissible extraterritorial effect because it, in effect, regulated prices in other states in violation of the Commerce Clause.
Connecticut's law was struck down in 1982 for this same reason.
And it was amended in 1984 with precisely this defect in mind.
Today under Connecticut law, brewers are free to change their prices in other states at any time, and that price change does not constitute a violation of Connecticut law.
Brewers, however, contend that they do not have the pricing flexibility that the Connecticut statute purports to extend.
New York, they argue, has a 180-day price hold on price reductions, and Massachusetts has a 30-day price hold on all prices.
The Second Circuit agreed and found that there... since there was no difference between what, in effect, occurred prior to the amendment, that even with the amendment, the law still contains an impermissible extraterritorial thrust.
We respectfully submit that it should be clear that Connecticut has no control over the pricing laws in New York or Massachusetts.
Connecticut allows brewers to change their prices at any time and it does not constitute a violation of Connecticut law.
Connecticut has done all that it can to satisfy the statements in Brown-Forman and the prohibitions discouraged there.
Harry A. Blackmun:
Counsel, you have no brewery in the State of Connecticut.
Robert F. Vacchelli:
That's correct, Your Honor.
There is still no brewery in Connecticut.
Harry A. Blackmun:
How does that ever happen?
The... the record indicates... or I think... that beer prices in Connecticut have always been a little bit high.
Robert F. Vacchelli:
Harry A. Blackmun:
Why is this?
Robert F. Vacchelli:
Well, the... that is because we submit in Connecticut prior to 1981, the Connecticut laws were congested with regulatory provisions that protected the local industry.
And as a result, liquor prices were high and consumers found it worthwhile to cross the state borders in large numbers.

Parshall – The Parshall Braves held off the Stanley Blue Jays to pick up a 67-63 victory in Region 8 Boys Basketball action.
The Braves used a nice run midway through the second quarter to pull ahead by 9 points. That lead would shrink in the second half as the Blue Jays were able to pull within 3 points on multiple occasions. Unfortunately, every time the Blue Jays would rally, the Braves would answer right back.
The Blue Jays figured to get boost late in the fourth when Wyatt Hanson picked up a loose ball and slammed it home, the dunk ignited the large Stanley Blue Jay fan base who made the trek down to Parshall. However, the Braves would answer back with a dunk of their own, when Bill Moran slammed home a thunderous dunk of his own. Moran finished with a team high 24 points for the Braves.
The Blue Jays would have a few opportunities in the last minute to cut the lead to one point but they couldn't get anything to fall, allowing the Braves to seal the victory.
Make sure to check out the rest of the pictures of both teams: Stanley Blue Jays vs. Parshall Braves (Photo Gallery)
Deyondre Simpson was excellent for the Braves, the senior hit three 3-pointers and terrorized the Blue Jays for much of the game.
Junior Wyatt Hanson poured in a game high 33 to lead the Blue Jays offensively. Hanson has been impressive for the Blue Jays all season, tonight was no exception.
The Blue Jays will host North Shore/Plaza on Tuesday.
Parshall 13 23 15 16 (67)

Characters: Getting to Know Chad Langford
Chad is the resident bouncer in Liz's bar, Athena's Ambrosia. At first look, he appears sullen, sour, gruff, but in truth he's a tender soul who wants nothing more than to live a happy life.
Chad Langford was a police officer on the Tremmel Crossing police force when something awful happened. To this day it's a deeply held secret as to what that something was. All we do know is it resulted in Chad "retiring" from the force in his early 30's with a substantial amount of compensation and a lot of mental baggage to last him a lifetime. Liz hopes one day he'll feel safe enough to tell her what happened, but she doesn't push him for the information.
Thirty-five with the rock hard abs of a twenty-five year old, all the ladies love Chad, though he'd rather most of their attentions were elsewhere. His hazel eyes and close cropped hair offer an aura of roughness to his sexy exterior, without a hint of his true inner self. Chad might be a fighter, but he'd rather be a lover. He wants the "Happily Ever After," but will he ever really get it? And will that be with Liz?
Feel free to ask Chad any questions you think of and we'll see if he's up to answering. :D
Stay tuned next week when it'll be Rick's turn at Getting to Know the Characters of Liz Baker's world.

Coco Before Chanel, a sumptuous period drama about the early career of legendary fashion designer Coco Chanel, owes a big debt to another recent film about an iconic Frenchwoman who rose to fame in the first half of the 20th Century – 2007's Oscar-winning Edith Piaf biopic La Vie en rose. Both films depict heroines struggling to overcome grossly deprived backgrounds and winning huge renown at the cost of tragic love lives. Audrey Tautou takes the lead role, and it's not hard to see shades of Amélie's cuteness behind Chanel's steely resolve. For all her performance's strengths, however, it's unlikely that she'll repeat Marion Cotillard's Oscar-winning triumph.
Released 31st July.

Cover letters could set you apart
Avoid the cover letter, as well as you miss out on a possibility to sell yourself, says Evelyn Salvador, writer of Step-by-Step Cover Letters: Construct a Cover Letter in 10 Easy Tips Using Individual Branding and also principal of Creative Picture Builders, a resume-development and also career-coaching firm in Coram, New York City.

Assume of your cover letter as one more device in your job search collection, says Betty Corrado, owner of career-coaching and resume-writing company Profession Authenticity in Cos Cob, Connecticut. The cover letter is a crucial component of your marketing bundle, she states. Utilize it as a possibility to convey your brand and worth recommendation.
Cover letters allow you expose your character as well as develop connection.
A resume has the tendency to be fact-based as well as rather official, yet a cover letter can be instilled with character. Don t hesitate to infuse personal notes regarding rate of interests or viewpoints that could assist companies figure out if you will certainly match their society, states Roleta Fowler Vasquez, professional resume author and proprietor of Wordbusters in Fillmore, The golden state. To boost the wow factor of their cover letters, she urges candidates to include a few standout achievements that don t show up on the return to.
Laila Atallah, a Seattle job counselor and proprietor of Profession Counseling with a Spin, concurs that a cover letter can be a lot more enlightening than a return to. The ideal cover letters are infused with energy, character and also information about the candidate s skills as well as accomplishments, she claims. I obtain a feeling of the individual as well as exactly what they ve achieved, and also it s simpler for me to imagine them in their following work.
Job hunters often make the mistake of sending a return to without a cover letter, claims Ann Baehr, president of Best Resumes of New York in East Islip, New York. This is a missed chance to establish rapport with companies and also provide a feeling of that they are beyond their work experience, she claims.
Thinking of skipping the cover letter when applying for an internal placement? Don't. Make use of the cover letter to demonstrate how well you comprehend your employer s goal and also advise administration of what does it cost? you have actually currently achieved.
Include a cover letter also if a colleague is submitting your resume for you. The letter is a possibility to present yourself as well as mention your call as a reminder that you are a recommendation. This is exactly what a cover letter ought to consist of, should you decide to send one.
Cover letters let you tell a tale.
The cover letter could consist of details that would certainly be out of area on the resume. Task candidates could include the name of a shared call or reference, state just how they would profit the company if employed as well as explain difficult scenarios such as altering occupations, moving, returning to the workforce and more, Baehr states.
Atallah encourages work hunters to learn more about the needs of the job opening and also make use of the cover letter to share exactly how and also why they are uniquely qualified. Utilize your cover letter to tell a tale, she says. Studies reveal that stories are remarkable as well as engaging, and cover letters are an ideal lorry for expressing your successes in a more storylike layout.
When not to send a cover letter.
Given all the needs to send a cover letter, is it ever before a smart idea not to? If the application instructions specifically say not to include a cover letter, or if an online application supplies no possibility, then you can do away with the cover letter in these instances, Atallah says.
Vasquez concurs that you should not send out a cover letter when the company specifically claims not to. This might be an examination of your ability to comply with instructions, she states.
Just what if you assume the cover letter won t be checked out? Corrado states that while some hiring managers state they wear t checked out cover letters, those who do might dismiss your application if you put on t send one.
While composing cover letters is taxing, the consensus is that the effort can give you a side as well as assist you land much more meetings.
What to do prior to applying to a work.
While we can question the significance of cover letters, there's no getting around that your resume is still most likely to be the very first point of call between you as well as a company. There's no concern that it has to be as strong as possible in order to persuade a hiring manager to seriously consider you for the setting.

My New Exit Clip
Original YT playout date: 6 December 2008

The reason for the OIOIOIO is that the domain OIOIOIO.com belongs to me. I picked it as there are not that many domain names 7 or fewer letters which can be flipped around backwards and forwards, up and down and always say the same thing.
I only had three exit clips or outroes for te whole of the YouTube collection. If I go on again post Coronavirus, then I think a new one for the new films would be in order.

This showcasing of the charms of "Aunty" Irina was done back in the day at her own initiative, by way of a little potential matchmaking for her – but since she is now spoken for if you like this you're too late! Hence this is a video that is not listed any more on YouTube. It is up if you know the link, but it's not being broadcast in the usual way.
It was a very popular film until I took it offline. The feature of "unlisting" enables me to put some videos in this blog which you won't find if you only follow me on YT itself without being subscribed to this blog. All the more reason to follow over here as well as on YT!

Manchester United host TeamPride Rainbow Laces Summit
Sports' biggest names join Stonewall and TeamPride for summit on tackling LGBT abuse
Speakers include Premier League's Bill Bush, Olympians Helen and Kate Richardson-Walsh and British racing driver Danny Watts
Manchester United play host to the summit at historic Old Trafford
Stonewall and TeamPride are bringing together some of sports' biggest names for a summit on how to ensure sport is truly everyone's game.
Stonewall's research shows that more than half of all sports fans (51 per cent) have seen or heard offensive behaviour or language against LGBT people in a sports setting.
Attendees to the one-day event on 15 May include the Rugby Football Union, the Premier League, the England and Wales Cricket Board, England Hockey, the Rugby Football League, the Rugby Players Association, the Youth Sports Trust, English Football Association along with many others.
Manchester United are hosting the event at Old Trafford, providing space for workshops where key decision-makers and influencers from across sport can share best-practice and gain practical skills on how to make progress on LGBT equality.
Manchester United Group Manager Director Richard Arnold and Aon's Global Chief Marketing and Communications Officer Phil Clement are hosting a CEO lunch as part of the summit. Over lunch senior leaders will discuss measures their organisations can put in place to create environments where everyone feels welcome.
Olympic gold medal winner and international hockey professionals Kate and Helen Richardson-Walsh join professional British racing driver Danny Watts for a discussion on what true acceptance looks like and why it's important for teammates to show their support.
Karin Cook, Group Director of Operations at Lloyds Banking Group, which came top in Stonewall's Workplace Equality Index Top 100, joins Greg Clarke from the Football Association to discuss how to create an LGBT inclusive culture.
Executive Director of the Premier League Bill Bush, rugby player Keegan Hirst and Bournemouth photographer Sophie Cook are hosting the closing panel to discuss why everyone needs to be involved in changing sport.
Staff from Sky Sports, Aviva and adidas are also attending the summit's best-practice panels to provide insight on how and why they stepped up to support LGBT inclusion.
Richard Arnold, Group Managing Director, Manchester United, said: 'We want this event to be an opportunity for senior leaders in sport to share best practice on how we can all work together to eradicate discrimination from sport and society. Manchester United is fully committed to equality across the Club and is proud to be part of TeamPride to support Rainbow Laces.'
Ruth Hunt, Stonewall's Chief Executive, said: 'This campaign is about encouraging people to step up to say they won't stand for abuse. People want to do that but they need the confidence. The more senior leaders we have in sport clearly stating that LGBT people are valued and equal, the more confident people will feel to do the same.'
As well as signing up to Rainbow Laces, the Premier League has become a member of TeamPride, a coalition of organisations committed to making sport everyone's game by encouraging fans, players, sports clubs and organisations to show their support of lesbian, gay, bi and trans people. The full list of members includes adidas, Aon, Aviva, Manchester United, O2, Pitch Marketing Group, the Premier League, Sky Sports and Visa.
The summit is part of Stonewall's ongoing campaign to make sport everyone's game.

Justin Hollingsworth
In upstream oil & gas production, flow measurements are critical for determining the health and longevity of the producing and injection wells. Many technologies such as multiphase flow meters and differential pressure (DP) measurements can be used.
In a Processing magazine article, Coriolis Flowmeters for Wet Gas Measurement, Emerson's Justin Hollingsworth describes another alternative, Coriolis mass flow meters for wet gas wells.
Justin highlights the importance of these measurements:
Efficiently managing fields and optimizing production requires real-time insight into conditions at the wellhead; therefore, it is essential to have the best tools available.
Identifying issues can be difficult if the measurements are taken manually and infrequently.
The search for the source of a water breakthrough or a failed downhole completion can be laborious, slow work, as well as expensive to find in the available data while engineers wait for more well tests to trickle in. Because of this, more and more operators are considering direct wellhead measurement options to ensure optimal recovery and quick response to individual well production issues.
Coriolis meters such as Micro Motion Coriolis meters have the:
…ability to measure multiple variables, such as mass flow, density, temperature, tube damping (an indicator of phase fraction conditions) and time, it is clear that these meters are also capable of measuring liquid in gas. This type of measurement works by combing the variables at the wellhead with readily available process variables, such as density of liquid and gas at standard conditions.
Justin notes that the:
…same techniques that can detect entrained gas [hyperlink to explanatory video added] in a liquid process can be used to detect liquid mist in a gas process, when using certain Coriolis sensor designs. Testing shows drive gain in Coriolis meters with a large U-shaped geometry are sensitive to even small amounts of liquid.
Read the article for more on how the liquid fraction is measured and how research into these measurements and how they compare with separated, single phase flow measurements.
Visit the Coriolis Flow Meters for Mass, Volume, & Density section on Emerson.com for more on how this technology provides accurate, wide turndown range measurements. You can also connect and interact with other flow measurement experts in the Measurement Instrumentation group in the Emerson Exchange 365 community.

July 18, 2007 - Cardium Therapeutics and its operating unit, InnerCool Therapies, have released its new CoolBlue surface temperature modulation system and RapidBlue endovascular temperature modulation system used for temperature modulation therapy in cardiac arrest patients.
The CoolBlue system includes a console and a disposable vest with upper thigh pads, which is designed to provide a complementary tool for use in less acute patients or in clinical settings best suited to prolonged temperature management. The vest and thigh pads, which effectively wrap the body without requiring any adhesives contacting the skin, are expected to enable cooling rates of around 1 degree Celsius per hour, similar to those of currently-marketed surface cooling systems and lower-performing endovascular systems using medium-sized, inflatable plastic balloon-based catheters.
InnerCool's approach to endovascular temperature modulation makes use of a thin flexible catheter designed to facilitate quick deployment and minimize vascular occlusion - while at the same time accelerating and optimizing patient cooling and re-warming. InnerCool's next-generation RapidBlue system for high-performance endovascular temperature modulation includes a programmable console with an integrated easy to insert cassette, enhanced touch-screen user interface and a catheter designed to quickly modulate patient temperature in association with surgery or other medical procedures. The RapidBlue system powers InnerCool's Accutrol catheter, which has a flexible, low profile metallic temperature control element and a built-in temperature feedback sensor to provide fast, precise and reliable patient temperature control. Cooling rates with the RapidBlue system range from 4-5 degrees Celsius per hour.

For friends of field office who are in 4200 grade pay (who were in 5000-8000 and 5500-9000 pre-revised basic),
I request you to represent to your department to make 5500-9000 scale to be placed in 4600 Grade pay. If not acceded to, then you may choose the legal option.
Here, even unions (especially Railway) appear to be not knowing the fact. They are idiotically demanding to grant atleast 3% increment for those in 5000 & 5500 merged (feeder & promotion cadre) who have been placed in 4200 Grade pay, on their promotion. This demand is ridiculous.
The demand should have been:-
1) Either merge these two posts (in two different designations) into one single designation/name/nomenclature by restructuring.
2) Grade 4200 grade pay for feeder (5000 basic) & 4600 Grade pay (5500 basic) for promotion cadre.
But setting these things side, when the rule for MACP itself states that MACP benefit will be the same as that of Promotion benefit (here I mean 3% increment in the Pay band and next higher immediate grade pay). Only in a few cases the Grade Pay on promotion will be even higher than MACP benefit for example, person in 2400 grade pay gets 2800 on MACP (if MACP preceeds promotion) and on promotion he gets 4200 grade pay (Grade pay of the promotion post).
See reproduction of Para-4 of Annexure-I of MACP Order dt.19.5.2009 below:
4. Benefit of pay fixation available at the time of regular promotion shall also be allowed at the time of financial upgradation under the Scheme. Therefore, the pay shall be raised by 3% of the total pay in the pay band and the grade pay drawn before such upgradation. There shall, however, be no further fixation of pay at the time of regularpromotion if it is in the same grade pay as granted under MACPS. However, at the timeof actual promotion if it happens to be in a post carrying higher grade pay than what isavailable under MACPS, no pay fixation would be available and only difference of grade
pay would be made available. To illustrate, in case a Government Servant joins as a direct recruit in the grade pay of Rs. 1900 in PB-l and he gets no promotion till
completion of 10 years of service, he will be granted financial upgradation under MACPS in the next higher grade pay of Rs. 2000 and his pay will be fixed by granting him one
increment plus the difference of grade pay (i.e. Rs. 100). After availing financial upgradation under MACPS, if the Government servant gets his regular promotion in the
hierarchy of his cadre, which is to the grade of Rs. 2400, on regular promotion, he will only be granted the difference of grade pay between Rs. 2000 and Rs. 2400. No additional increment win be granted at this stage.
When this being the situation, demanding a benefit on promotion which does not even equal even MACP benefit, is absolutely irrational, illogical, idiotic. Hence, Railway employees, pl. take efforts to restrain your leaders from making such idiotic demands.
As far as I am concerned, the OA for 4600 Grade pay is to be filed this week positively.
My best wishes for success in our fight for justice.

The Nigerian Police Force has asked Senate President Bukola Saraki to respond to allegations linking him to the Offa bank robbery, within 48 hours rather than appearing in person.
The announcement comes minutes after Vice President Yemi Osinbajo met behind closed-doors with the Inspector General of Police, Mr Ibrahim Idris, as well as the head of State Security Service, Lawal Daura, at the State House.
The police had said on Sunday that it would be inviting Saraki as five of the robbery suspects, reported to have confessed to the crime, indicted him.
The five gang leaders had claimed that they were political thugs of the Senate President and the Governor of Kwara State, Abdulfatah Ahmed.
The Force Spokesperson, Jimoh Moshood, in a statement, said the bank robbery led to the death of 33 persons including some pregnant women and nice police officers.
"The Senate President, Sen. Bukola Saraki is being invited by the Nigeria Police Force to report to the Force Intelligence Response Team office at Guzape, Abuja to answer to the allegations levelled against him from the confessions of the Five (5) Gang Leaders and some of the other 17 suspects arrested for direct involvement and active participation in the Offa Bank Robbery and the gruesome killing of 33 innocent persons which includes some pregnant women and nine Police personnel," the police statement read in part.
Despite the allegation, the Senate President has denied having any connection with the robbery.
In a statement by his Special Adviser (Media and Publicity) Yusuph Olaniyonu, Saraki described the allegations as "baseless" and "another ploy by the Police to implicate him by all means".
According to him, when the incident happened, he was the first top public official to pay a visit to the place after which he also put a call through to the Inspector General of Police, Mr Ibrahim Idris, to make the necessary security arrangements.

The Fall and the Rise of Leaf Blowers
Why do people use leaf blowers? Do they really think that blowing their leaves off their yards and driveways will achieve anything, other than deafening themselves and others? And annoying the Noise Curmudgeon? Especially when the leaves are STILL falling!!
Perhaps the issue is this, as noted at 'Newsfromthehomefront': "Give a guy a leaf blower and he wields it like an oversized penis." ( http://www.newsfromthehomefront.ca/2012/04/17/tell-me-why-we-still-allow-leaf-blowers/) (Did Freud say anything about noise?)
Here you can read a good article, which includes information on how leaf blowers work and why they are so loud. The author also discusses what he calls 'psychoscaping' – the creation of unusable and unused yards, on which you use these loud machines.
See this picture? I think a leaf once landed on that lawn! Damn its eyes! This is what he labels 'psychoscaping'.
Noise Curmudgeon Video Time:
What IS this person blowing away? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jEa4T2uLTIk
I feel very badly for this guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8rBQH5Pv0k
(Notice that there are NO fallen leaves in sight!)
Listen to what this person in the UK has to deal with: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfEhC_4N1lg
What is to be done? Legislation at the local level is one option.
If you live in Santa Monica, you will be glad to know that leaf blowers are banned within the city! And here you can see a somewhat out-of-date list of cities in good old California which have banned leaf blowers.
In Canada, we have not yet gone full out in banning leaf blowers. If you live in Toronto, there is a weak little by-law re: noise pollution. Vancouver's bylaw is a bit tougher. (See the reference to leaf blowers being banned completely in Vancouver's West End. I wonder how they pulled that off?) Victoria's noise bylaw makes specific reference to leaf blowers, noting that they must not exceed 65 dB at full throttle. So – check with your city government to see if there are noise by-laws regarding leaf blowers.
In the world of social media, you can also track issues regarding leaf blowers and noise on Facebook.
OR – if you STILL think you need technological/machine help with your leaves, try a leaf sweeper:
Of course, there is a strong lobby from the landscaping industry to stop by-laws against leaf blowers and other such machines. Here you can read some of their thinking – please note their snide comments about rich people complaining! If you read this article, you will find, near the end, a description of how the City of Los Angeles tested the efficacy of leaf blowers vs. a grandmother with a broom and a rake – and she won! So there, landscaping industry. (Did you know? "The leaf blower industry employs a full-time lobbyist who travels the country attempting to quiet anti-blower legislative activity." (http://www.csmonitor.com/1997/1003/100397.opin.opin.1.html/%28page%29/2))
But – here is a link to a US lawncare business which is embracing new approaches and quiet technologies. See what they offer.
And here is a good piece from a landscaper who makes it very clear that leaf blowers 'blow'.
So you could also deal with some of this issue by finding and hiring local landscapers who do not use leaf blowers.
Allow me to end this post with a quote from Stuart Thomson of the Edmonton Journal:
"Knowing what we know [about leaf blowers and their impact], can we really allow this to continue? I can imagine a world in which none of our leaves are blown (a few are raked, that's quite all right as long as no one scrapes the metal rake along the concrete, please) and it is a good world indeed. Sure, sometimes there will be too many leaves in one spot, some brown and soggy from the rain, but I have faith in our tenacity and spirit as Canadians to handle this." (http://blogs.edmontonjournal.com/2012/11/17/on-leaf-blowers-the-scourge-of-autumn/)

email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Rescuers in Spain took two weeks searching for two-year-old Julen Rosello who fell down a 100-meter well. They continued digging for two weeks but to no avail. Mine workers, who usually have vast experience in this field, jumped in and helped the rescuers but even their efforts did not help to rescue the toddler. Finally the lifeless body of the toddler was found. Sadness prevailed.
In such incidents, especially those related to uncovered artesian wells, it can take weeks and sometimes months of searching in order to find the victim. What occurred in Spain reminds us of the tragic event in Tabuk in March 2014 that claimed the life of Lama Al-Rouqi. That proved to be challenging as the rescuers took a long time before finding Lama dead. When we look at such incidents around the world, we can clearly see the danger of uncovered wells, which are often found on the outskirts of a city and in sparsely populated places.
We have read about similar incidents that have taken place in our country claiming the lives of innocent people because of the greed of the owners of uncovered wells. We need to report uncovered wells to the authorities in order to save innocent people, especially nowadays when it rains a lot.
The Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture has initiated a project called "Reporting an uncovered well can save a soul" in collaboration with the Civil Defense. Picnickers should cooperate with authorities and report any uncovered well they find and send coordinates to the pertinent authority so that they can take action. The ministry needs to launch an application for this purpose in order to allow the general public to report such incidents easily and quickly. I believe such an application will help reduce the number of these tragic incidents. Needless to say, the owners of such wells should be punished for leaving them uncovered.

Head of Financial Crime, Richard Kovalevsky QC, talks to fivehundred magazine about trading chambers for a law firm environment, the challenges ahead for the criminal Bar, and the current trends in financial crime.
Why did you decide to leave the independent Bar and 2 Bedford Row to become a partner at Stewarts?
At the Bar, I was involved in many large cases working as part of a large legal team. Over time, I realised that I enjoyed running these teams and empowering the other professionals I worked with. Strategic decision-making for clients facing the risk of prosecutorial action had become a regular exercise. These skills fit well with a law firm.
I chose Stewarts as I wanted to join a reputable firm where I could advise clients, work with different legal teams, and where appropriate, still appear as an advocate. Stewarts' litigation reputation, as well as the fact it is highly regarded among its peers, the Magic Circle, and large US and European firms, made it attractive to me. I was keen to build a practice in a firm that had good European and US connections, as this is where a lot of my work at the Bar had been focused.
What were the challenges of establishing the firm's financial crime department?
Managing the growth of the department has been the biggest challenge to date. I was fortunate enough to have been well received by my peers practicing in my areas of specialisms and by Magic Circle firms that I have been working alongside and we have won several significant instructions.
The challenge has been to ensure we have sufficient depth and expertise on hand to be able to service the growing workload.
We recently appointed David Savage as a new partner in the department, his financial crime experience is supplemented by his in-depth knowledge of sanctions law and practice, and we've had support from the related areas within Stewarts. Having high- quality lawyers is at the heart of Stewarts and I intend to ensure that quality is the critical common factor in all my hires. I am happy with the current shape of the department, and look forward to its further expansion.
What have you personally found to be the biggest challenge swapping chambers for a law firm?
Most definitely the commercial aspects of my role here at Stewarts. Not only am I running the department, winning new business, and servicing clients, I am also on the firm's board. Stewarts is a significant business. It's a balancing act getting everything done, but one I relish. Having said that, I am still adapting to the limited amount of annual leave that you get in a law firm compared to the Bar!
What advice would you give to other barristers thinking of making the switch? And for those going in the opposite direction?
For barristers looking to move to a law firm, I would say the biggest difference is responsibility. You are answerable to your fellow partners and responsible for, and to a certain extent answerable to, the firm's employees. Your time is less your own, and you have to be comfortable with the business of law. The Bar insulates its members from the sometimes bruising conversations that are needed in relation to the financial aspects of conducting a case. Thought must be given to that. At a law firm, you have to be much more open to new people, ideas and situations.
The other way around? Making the switch from a law firm to the Bar would mean gaining much more time to focus in detail on isolated issues of law and, to a certain extent, fact. As mentioned above, you will be insulated from the commercial discussions and considerations that surround litigation and legal advice. On the other hand, someone making this switch is likely to miss the collegiate atmosphere of a law firm, and the continuing support of those who surround you.
What are the differences or challenges of advising individuals and corporate clients?
In representing corporates, you must always be aware that the client is seeking certainty and finality, and may be looking for a pragmatic solution. This often means that while it is important to win, there may be other factors at play in a business when determining the right strategy to achieve the best outcomes.
Individual clients, on the other hand, require an outcome that ideally vindicates them and ensures they suffer no loss. This requires strategic advice based upon achieving a defined goal. You have to work closely with a client to ensure their pressing needs are immediately catered for.
The UK is often described as having a 'Rolls-Royce legal system', but is that really the case when it comes to criminal justice?
I agree the UK does have a Rolls-Royce legal system, but in terms of criminal justice the problem is underfunding, particularly with prosecuting agencies. This has meant fewer cases being investigated and those that are investigated are taking longer to decide in respect of allegations of criminal behaviour. This funding issue and the subsequent delays must be addressed rapidly as the UK is falling behind in terms of the length of time that an investigation takes compared to the US and Europe. Over time, this could become a significant problem to the reputation of the UK legal system if it isn't addressed.
What predictions would you make for the future of the criminal Bar?
The criminal Bar is likely to continue its separation between general and financial crime. Each area is becoming increasingly specialised, particularly financial crime. In addition, as law firms develop their own capabilities in these areas, the ground covered by the Bar will shrink. However, I think there will always be the need for experts in both areas of criminal law.
Do you see the professions merging in the future?
This is an interesting question with a complex answer. I think the professions are likely to merge to an extent, as law firms develop advocacy departments and capabilities to keep up with client needs and requirements. However, I think there will always be the need for specialist barristers in chambers with a reputation in specific areas. I think the era of the generalist at the Bar is drawing to a close. This is likely to cause the Bar to shrink in number to a point which represents its true position as a referral profession.
What advice would you give to the next generation of criminal lawyers, be they wannabe barrister or solicitor?
Remain passionate about what you do, and don't be afraid to make the leap to specialise in an area which you find interesting and fascinating.
Please give us an overview of the current trends in financial crime and how any recent developments have impacted your practice?
I think there is a general feeling in the market that things in the UK have been quiet of late. The Serious Fraud Office (SFO) has been coming to terms with some large matters, some of which have been discontinued, and the police have been slow to bring new fraud prosecutions. Internationally, however, the market is busy with large corporates and their offices being swept up in corruption, fraud, and sanctions investigations. The work has been increasing substantially and has more than made up for the domestic shortfall in recent months.
Back at home, the indications are that the SFO, the National Crime Agency (NCA), and Max Hill QC (newly appointed as director of public prosecutions) are gearing up their efforts for a series of new investigations. The recent headline-grabbing activities of the NCA with unexplained wealth orders (UWO) is set to continue with greater activity in this area as the law becomes more settled. I also expect to see the SFO using more UWOs in the future.
I have to mention, too, that Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC) is increasingly active in prosecuting tax evasion and the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is similarly active in relation to market abuse offences. I can only see this increasing. I forecast that we are in for a buoyant period.
What about international trends? What are you seeing outside of the UK?
Paris and Frankfurt continue to be busy with investigations into financial crime, and the US continues to lead the way in this area and in sanctions. I think the biggest trend going forward will be more efficient alliances between international enforcement agencies such as the SFO in the UK and the Department of Justice (DoJ) in the US. We are seeing more investigations being run from several jurisdictions as a result of the increasingly international nature of business activity.
And finally, what has been your greatest achievement, in a both professional and personal capacity, to date?
I achieved all I wanted to at the Bar, having appeared as lead advocate in some of the most significant cases and gained recognition as a prominent figure within my field. I wanted to extend these achievements beyond the Bar, and feel I am on my way to doing so after only one year at Stewarts. I am ranked in The Legal 500 and have gained several significant instructions. I'm looking forward to the year ahead.

Agencies: Bellmead Police Department Texas
Last updated: over 2 years ago
The caller told police someone was inside the apartment.
Officers who first arrived at the scene reported they saw a man flee the apartment complex on foot and they pursued, Alvarado said.
The foot chase ended in the 1100 block of Dossett Street where officers used a stun gun to try to subdue the man but he broke free of the darts.
As one of the officers approached the suspect, the man pulled a knife and began slashing at the officer, at which time officers opened fire on him, Alvarado said.
The man, identified as Julian Magdaleno, 29, was shot and killed.
A witness who lives in a house at the location where the shooting happened reported she and her husband heard about five gunshots at about 2:20 a.m.

Letter of Phineas Fish to John Davis
Honorable and Dear Sir,
In my draft, which probably will be presented you by Mr. H. Scudder of Boston,1 I have mentioned the usual quarterly amount of my bills, though you informed me that it was in contemplation to reduce my salary. I did so, partly, because I did not know what sum to mention (being ignorant of the exact time when the reduction might take place) and partly because I could not help cherishing the hope that the alteration might not take place. I am persuaded that none of the gentlemen would wish to withdraw as considerable a part of what I was led to expect as a living, unless such a step were unavoidable. If it is indeed so, I hope I shall be able to live from what may continue to be given, though the prospect looks dark and will create much anxiety and inevitably produce a divided attention to my duties and no inconsiderable abridgment of comfort. Such is my situation here so much dearer are the articles of living than in any of the surrounding towns, that my surplusage has been very small with great attention to economy, since I have had a family. My situation is so much the more cheerless from being considerably in debt in consequence of building. What I was able to save previously to that was by denying myself the enjoyment naturally to be expected from domestic life. Notwithstanding my endeavors to lay aside some part of my income, I was obliged to contract some debts in procuring a residence for my family. As my salary stood, with great exertion I was able to pay the interest and perhaps fifty dollars annually of the principle of my debt. If my salary is reduced, as much as you suggested, that prospect seems to be at an end.
Permit me to ask, Dear Sir, should the note of interest on the funds revive again, might I expect, so far to share in the good fortune of them as to receive once more what was settled upon me at my ordination? And if that cannot be, is it not possible to grant me all or nearly the original sum for a time longer or at the least to the termination of the academical year, ending 30 June ultimo. That I might be able to clear some present, pressing engagements, and be in a better position to accommodate myself to my diminished income. Having spent the most active part of my life in this place and embarrassed with the possession of buildings which if they could be disposed of at all, must certain be of great loss, I feel reluctance at the thought of removing. I feel thankful for the past kindness and liberality of the gentlemen on whom I depend for support and could the same be continued, it would be truly grateful to my feelings. I should be glad to receive any information, relative to my concerns or my duties here, which you may think proper to impart. Should you visit Sandwich at any time, we should be very happy to receive a visit from yourself and lady, if you would condescend thus to notice us.
I am, Dear Sir, your much obliged and humble servant,
Honorable John Davis
For Mr. Scudder.
Reverend Phineas Fish's Letter / July 11, 1826

- 1. Horace Scudder, a Boston merchant and shipowner.

Scientists share photos of familiar-looking 'peanut worm'
Australian researchers from Museum Victoria and the CSIRO, the nation's scientific research agency, shared a photo of something lurking deep beneath the ocean -- and Twitter can't stop talking about it.
Aside from the usual horrific-looking faceless fish, they found the "peanut worm," which bears a shocking resemblance to ... well, see for yourself.
Twitter users then rushed to make the same joke over and over again, pretty much:
See Gallery
The sipuncula is known as the peanut worm because it resembles the shell of a peanut, according to University of California's Museum of Paleontology.

The sipuncula consist of a group of 320 different species that are found in shallow waters or in crevasses between rocks -- and they usually don't look quite so ... phallic.

Statewide Transit Tax
Starting July 1, 2018, you'll see a new item on your paystub for Oregon's statewide transit tax. The tax is one-tenth of one percent (.001)—or $1 per $1,000. Your employer will be automatically withholding the tax—just like the personal income tax—so you don't have to do or change anything. Unlike the personal income tax, there's no withholding exemption for this tax. Revenue from the statewide transit tax will go to expanding public transportation throughout Oregon. For more information on how the tax revenues will be used, check out "HB 2017 Funding Package" under "Projects & News" on the Oregon Department of Transportation's website at www.oregon.gov/odot. To learn more about the tax itself, visit the Department of Revenue online at www.oregon.gov/dor.

Content Is King
Use content marketing to improve your organic search visibility, drive traffic to your website, and establish your company as THE authority in your industry to convert more web visits into leads and sales.
Traditional advertising and marketing campaigns don't produce the results it once did.

Your prospects will market and build your business for you by sharing your content with others. Content marketing is arguably the most cost-effective way to grow your business and build your brand.
But it's not enough to just create and publish lackluster content. As David Meerman-Scott says, "on the web, you are what you publish." As part of a larger inbound marketing strategy, your content—whether it be blogs, videos, case studies, etc.—needs to attract and engage your audience, while establishing you and your company as an authority in your industry. Let Precision Digital help you transform the way you advertise and market your business. From supplementing your in-house marketing department to serving as your Chief Content Officer, we do it all.

EARLY CHILDHOOD + 1990, 1995, 2009 The League of Women Voters of Texas supports policies, legislation, and programs that address the needs of all Texas children and families for accessible, affordable, and quality child care.
The League believes that all children in child care are entitled to a safe, nurturing environment and developmentally appropriate activities. Caring for children is a societal as well as a family responsibility and the state should play a role in meeting child care needs. The League supports the development, adoption, and implementation of a comprehensive state child care policy that includes, but is not limited to:
- programs designed to provide an adequate supply of accessible child care
- access to information that will help families recognize and choose quality child care
- a provision for parental choice in the selection of subsidized child care
- programs designed to make child care affordable to all
- consistent and reliable funding, administered efficiently, and used effectively
- financial support from a variety of sources including federal grants and matching funds, state funds, local government funds, employer contributions, fees for service, private philanthropy
- minimum standards, effectively enforced, for child care services
- measures to promote quality child care
- coordination of child care programs, services, and funding
- encouragement of cooperation among groups and agencies
- a state model-employer program that makes quality, affordable child care available to state employees.
Explanation: Child Care/Early Childhood
At the 1989 state Convention delegates adopted a study of Child Care in Texas. The scope of the study included programs, services, availability, standards, enforcement, policies, and affordability. A Facts and Issues, Child Care in Texas: The Roles and Responsibilities of the State, was produced by the study committee and widely circulated to members, child care advocacy groups, and legislators. Consensus was reached in the fall of 1990, with 28 local Leagues participating.
The Child Care position underwent Periodic Program Review during 1993-1995. Several editing changes that clarify meaning were recommended by the PPR Committee and approved by the membership. The re-worded position is set forth above. A recommendation by the PPR Committee for a substantive addition to the position (support of measures to override local restrictions on the location of child care facilities, including family day homes), was rejected by the membership. The name was changed by state board vote in October 2009 to Early Childhood to reflect the prevailing title used in the industry.

For smokey eye makeup what feature color eye shadow best suits dark brown eyes? First, arrange all the eyeshadows you're going to use.
1. It's best to use dark brown and black. Do not use creamy texture eyeshadows as they are difficult to smudge and blend. Use POWDERY SHADOWS.
2. For your secondary shade, you need to contrast the dark colors with either: champagne, taupe, nude, or a sand color. I prefer nude so as to match the common Filipina women's skin tone.
3. Choose your eyeliner pencil. It should be a soft eyeliner of the same color of your dark eyeshadow, in this case, Black. If possible choose a Powderliner or a Charcoal eyeliner pencil. They are easier to blend and are sometimes available with a sponge tip for easy blending. Never use liquid eyeliner. Liquid eyeliners are better for sharper lines, not a soft and sultry finish.
4. Now you're ready to start... Note that it is normal to apply full foundation before applying your eye make up. In this case, I recommend you to put thin foundation around the eyes only, and then apply loose powder to set the foundation. This will give you a clean canvas for your eye shadow and will also help to prevent the eye shadow from creasing. This will also give you more even, accurate, eye shadow application. That way, if you get some of your eye shadow on the rest of your face you won't ruin your foundation. This also helps avoid a raccoon eye look under your eye.
5. Apply the light color (nude) from the corner of the eye up to the crease. For Asian especially Filipina women, it is hard to apply up to the brow bone since many of us have very small eyes. I suggest you apply up to the crease only, and then, apply just right below the brow bone, so as to highlight the brows.
6. Apply the brown eyeshadow on top of the nude color and blend.
7. Add black eyeshadow at the outer corner of the eye going towards the center of the eye. Blend.
8. Apply black eyeliner at the rims, at the upper lid, from the inner corner to the outer corner, if possible, apply as near as possible to the water lines or eyelash lines. Make sure to complete the line from the inner to the outer corner. Smudge it with cotton swabs for a more subtle look.
9. Apply the same black eyeliner below the eyes, from the center of the eye going outwards. The more you reach the outer eye, the more you darken the application. This way, Asian eyes become bigger and wider.
10. Apply black mascara at both rims of your eyes, make it double to emphasize the smokey effect.
And voila! You now have a smokey eye look, just in time for partying "cooler" nights here in Manila...
