In 2015 Italy is expected to return to growth on an annual basis after three consecutive years of contraction, and after having lost more than 9% of GDP in real terms since 2007, one year before the beginning of the global financial crisis. This is certainly a welcome development. At the same time, the major policy institutions, market participants and independent research houses (including RGE), expect Italy's GDP in 2015 to grow only by 0.7% (median forecast), around half the pace of the Eurozone as a whole.
On the one hand, one could argue that 0.7% is already above Italy's current (post-crisis) growth potential, which RGE estimates to be around 0.4% (vs 1.0% pre-crisis), and therefore enough to start absorbing part of the spare capacity in the economy, and potentially reduce the high unemployment rate (together with some of the recently-introduced reforms of the labour market and the three-year tax break for new hires).
On the other hand, it is certainly true that the Italian government cannot be satisfied with these low growth rates, especially when considering that they are likely to be the result of the combined effects of exogenous factors such as lower interest rates and lower EUR exchange rates (favoured by the ECB's accommodative monetary policy stance), lower oil prices and the (marginally) increased fiscal flexibility granted by the EU Commission in January 2015, which allowed Italy to temporarily deviate from its Medium-Term Objective (MTO) in the light of exceptional economic circumstances.
In 2016, Italy is hoping to be granted again the possibility of temporarily deviating from the MTO on the back of the ambitious reform plan implemented by the government. This could help Italy achieve a slightly higher growth rate than in 2015, perhaps north of 1% (net of the positive boost to the economy potentially deriving from the extraordinary Jubilee). But more support is needed to allow the Italian economy to recover faster, thus preventing the parallel processes of de-industrialization and hysteresis from becoming entrenched and ultimately intractable.
The Much Needed Fiscal Support To Aggregate Demand
I believe that the missing piece of the jigsaw in the European policy response to the global financial crisis has been the fiscal support to aggregate demand. True, the European rules on fiscal discipline mandate Italy's fiscal deficit to remain below 3%, and its structural fiscal balance to converge towards -0.5%. But more can be done without infringing the rules. In particular, there is a better way of using the fiscal space the EU Commission has granted to Italy and other deficit countries in January 2015.
I want to refer in particular to the tax credit/bonus promoted by Renzi's government in 2014 (the so-called "€80/month" for low earners) and possibly to the further tax cuts Prime Minister Renzi has proposed for the 2016-2018 period.
For the sake of simplicity, I will refer to the €80/month measure proposed in 2014, reiterated and expected to become "structural" in 2015, when the € 10 billion cost of the measure can be reasonably expected to be covered by the savings to public expenditure deriving from the spending review carried out by the government (but the same argument applies to any tax cut financed either by equal spending cuts, or by increases in the fiscal deficit).
In 2014 and 2015, the measure was implemented by crediting with additional €80/month the payslip of selected workers earning between € 8.000 and €24-26.000/year (gross). The people entitled to the "bonus" could choose what to do with the additional credited amount.
It is hard to know whether the measure was successful or not, as Italy's GDP in 2014 fell by 0.4%, but could have fallen more in the absence of the measure. There is something we can say almost for sure, though. The measure was not as successful as could have been, if it had been implemented differently.
"Fiscal" Money Needs To Be Spent, Not Saved, To Boost GDP Growth
Key to the success of a measure of fiscal support is that the additional money is spent, hence entering the economic circuit, rather than saved. What we can almost certainly say is that the additional € 6 billion provided to around 11 million people in 2014 (and € 10 billion in 2015) were partly spent, partly used to pay (in some cases higher) taxes and partly saved. This has diminished the positive impact of the measure.
Let's abstract from the part of the bonus spent in (perhaps higher) taxes, which effectively reduced the effectiveness of the measure to almost zero, and let's focus instead on the component that was saved rather than spent. It is quite likely that this component was pretty large, if one inferred from the tepid welcome gathered by another measure meant at increasing households' disposable income, i.e. the possibility of start receiving part of the severance package (TFR) as part of the monthly salary in 2015.
It could be possible to argue that, from a broader perspective, increasing household savings helps the national economy as it contributes to repair the balance sheet of indebted families or to re-constitute the stock of savings depleted in the last few years. But increasing savings will hardly boost consumption, and therefore GDP growth. For that to happen, the extra money provided with the €80/month bonus or future tax cuts needs to be spent. How to ensure that?
A "Fiscal Debit Card" With An Expiry Date
Now that the names of the people entitled to receive the bonus (or future tax cuts) are known, it would be much more effective to put the same amount of money (effectively € 1000/year) into a "fiscal debit card" ("carta pre-pagata fiscale") with an expiry date, for example – for the fiscal year 2016 – 31/12/2016. By that day, either the money is spent, or is lost (use it or lose it). The individuals can chose how to spend it, but not whether to spend it or not[1].
Given the novelty of the measure introduced in April 2014, the fact that the EU Commission hadn't yet approved the additional flexibility granted in January 2015 and that the ECB was not buying government bonds, one can understand why the €80/month measure was implemented as it was. But for the next few years, it would be much more effective to proceed as suggested above. Also because the adoption of a "fiscal card" allows plenty of flexibility for the reiteration of the measure in coming years.
For example, in 2017 the government could decide to reduce the amount with which any card is "charged" (for example from € 1000 to € 800 a year), if the measure were to become too onerous. Or a different set of recipients could be selected (for example, to include pensioners and/or "incapienti"). Or the government could choose that any amount spent from the card must be matched by an equal amount spent from "private" money, to start putting savings in circulation.
Macroeconomic Effects: A Boost To Growth, Inflation And Fiscal Revenues
If this "fiscal debit card" were to be introduced, the government would ensure that the money given to households could enter in circulation, the usual multiplier effects of the economy could kick in, and additional tax revenues (from VAT and income taxes) would be generated, thus partly financing the cost of the operation. With no cash involved, fiscal revenues are meant to increase at every use of the card.
This would also justify the fact that the coverage of this expansionary fiscal operation could initially come from a higher deficit, rather than an equivalent cut in spending, especially in a period when the central bank (ECB) is buying government bonds, thus providing a tremendous backstop to the domestic sovereign bond market. In such circumstances, in fact, the combination of increased public spending (via households) – financed by increased fiscal deficit, and the central bank's de-facto debt-monetization is the optimal policy mix to exit the recession and subsequent stagnation (as proven by the U.S. and UK experiences). Any inflationary impulse deriving from this mix of expansionary policies could only be welcome, in a period of persistent low-flation/deflation[2].
In conclusion, by simply changing the implementation method of an existing policy, already approved by the EU, the government could boost growth and inflation, and ultimately unemployment, while remaining below the 3% fiscal deficit/GDP ratio and avoiding the opening of an excessive deficit procedure. The increase in nominal GDP would then allow the government to also respect the promise of reducing the high debt/GDP ratio over time.
[1] The usual practical issues would need to be resolved, such as the possibility of using the card only if accompanied by a name-matching ID; or the fact that traditional credit-card circuits need to be used in order to disguise the card, so to defend the privacy of the owner, etc.
[2] This can be seen as a modern version of the helicopter drop, with a 100% tax on unused banknotes. The absence of that tax generates the negative yields that are now so widespread in European bond markets.

What is Bodybuilding?
Here is a quick crash course to better understand Bodybuilding. The sport of Bodybuilding can sometimes be confused with Men's Physique. Bodybuilding is broken down by weight class and men's physique is by height classes. You must be an active NPC member to compete in any class. Let me provide the breakdown between the two classes, if you are looking to compete, and what each class is required to do on stage. Please visit the websites below for references or information, if you'd like to step on stage with the NPC (National Physique Committee).
Bodybuilding vs Men's Physique
First let's see what the classification is for each class. *According to the official NPC website, www.Npcnewsonline.com, bodybuilding rules for:
Posing Suits requirements,
Posing Music,
Onstage expectations,
Backstage access,
Competitor's health,
and weight class breakdowns, are very long so to get a detailed list on all of the follow mentioned rules, please visit: http://npcnewsonline.com/npc-bodybuilding-competitor-rules/.
Men's Physique is slightly different than bodybuilding as they are in board shorts instead of posing trunks and extreme muscularity is marked down. *The judges here are looking for muscularity and body conditioning, a competitor must display proper shape and symmetry combined with muscularity and overall condition. Men's physique competitors do not have personalized stage music as bodybuilding do, but stage presence and personality is key here.
For a complete breakdown as well on all rules and expectations please visit the site here: http://npcnewsonline.com/npc-mens-physique-rules-regulations/. I would like to point that I compete in Texas so what the judges look for may vary than your state or region, so I would advise anyone looking at competing to check with their local judges. For females looking to compete, there are four classes you can compete in as well: Bikini, Figure, Fitness, and Bodybuilding. To get a complete breakdown on each class and their requirements you can view that information here: http://npcnewsonline.com/ then click the RULES tab and each division you would like more info on.
This website is the national register of shows but for Texas shows visit: http://www.npctexas.org. Lastly, if you'd like to see actual stage videos from my competitions please check them out my website or YouTube channel: http://www.JesseHuerta.com
The Typical Workout
Now that we are familiar with the differences between bodybuilding and Men's Physique, let's look at a typical workout if you are a beginner. I, myself, break down my workouts per body part and do usually 2 to 3 body parts per day. My example workout will be Monday through Thursday with Friday being a cardio day if you'd like to get an extra workout in before that delicious cheese cake you are about to devour this weekend.
Make sure to use your Harbinger or Human X Gear weight belt, lifting straps, or wrist wraps whenever possible to get more out of your workouts!

Recently I was asked by a funeral director to play at a graveside service for a homeless man. He had no family or friends, so the service was to be at a pauper's cemetery in the Nova Scotia back country. As I was not familiar with the backwoods, I got lost and, being a typical man, I didn't stop for directions. I finally arrived an hour late and saw the funeral guy had evidently gone and the hearse was nowhere in sight. There were only the diggers and crew left and they were eating lunch. I felt badly and I apologized to the men for being late. I went to the side of the grave and looked down and the vault lid was already in place. I didn't know what else to do, so I started to play. The workers put down their lunches and began to gather around. I played out my heart and soul for this man with no family and friends. I played like I've never played before for this homeless man. And as I played Amazing Grace, the workers began to weep. They wept, I wept, we all wept together. When I finished, I packed up my bagpipes and started for my car. Though my head hung low, my heart was full. As I opened the door to my car, I heard one of the workers say, "I never seen nothing like that before and I've been putting in septic tanks for twenty years."

The Prince of Wales Stadium in Cheltenham was the venue for some track work on Thursday afternoon, with the various groups of players doing a series of 100m, 400m, 800m and 1500m runs.
Many of the new signings were present, as well as the majority of the existing squad, minus those who have been away with international teams, and Paddy praised the work done so far but stressed there is much more to do.
"I've been pretty pleased with the gym testing today but we still have some progress to make on the track work. That's to be expected as we asked the players to focus on certain areas while they were off.
"We've got five weeks left in this first phase to get to where we need to be, and we'll be putting in a huge effort to get there. The new coaches start to arrive soon, and it's the job of my team and myself to make sure the squad is ready physically.
"But, ultimately, they've all had a good offseason and worked very hard in certain areas, particularly in terms of their strength and power.
"We've deliberately set very high targets for the players to achieve this off season and it will test them. But we aspire to be the fittest team in the Premiership this season, and we won't achieve that without a lot of hard work.
"It's the first day and they'll be glad to have got it out of the way. There's plenty of work to be done, but we'll make sure it's varied and beneficial and I'm very positive about what lies ahead."

The Origins of The Tourist by Olen Steinhauer
What is Tourism? We know the pitchLangley will tell you
that Tourism is the backbone of their readiness paradigm, the immediate
response pyramid, or whatever they've rebranded it this year. That you,
as a Tourist, are the pinnacle of contemporary autonomous intelligence
work. You're a diamond. Really.
The Black Book of
Tourism, Anonymous
The idea of a Tourist as a kind of intelligence agent sprang out
of my own lifestyle. Not that I've ever been a spy, committed murder, or
smuggled state secrets across bordersno, not that. What I've done, since 2001,
is live in that tenuous non-place in which many expatriates exist. It's neither
the home you've left behind, nor an adopted cultureinstead, it's somewhere in
between: a bubble of your own construction, in which English is the national
language, and the details are arranged so that you can live just as you'd like.
It's a world without roots, carrying within it all the pros and
cons this suggests, and until the recent birth of my daughter, I felt very much
tied to the rootlessness of the expat. I knew that at any moment, if necessary,
I could ...

I had eye lift surgery on the upper eye lids on July 5th and still have blurred vision. Any suggestions?
Doctor Answers 3
Unusual to have blurred vision at 6 weeks. May be dry eye issues. See an ophthalmologist to check the cornea.
It is quite unusual for a patient to have prolonged blurred vision after blepahroplasty, You might want to go for an eye exam with your ophthalmologist.

Serves its purpose well. I throw it on over a button up when I need an extra layer. The numerous color options make this easy to pair. Fits snug, which concerned me at first because the sweater is quite thin and I felt it might rip, but those concerns have been laid to rest because this sweater can stretch pretty far without tearing. Fantastic quality for the price and I see this lasting a long time. If you need something thicker, either add another layer or look elsewhere. If you're looking for a thin extra layer to throw on top of your button down, this is what you want.

The Roughwood Seed Collection acquired this rare Creole tomato from French tomato connoisseur Norbert Parreira. The brilliant, vermillion-red fruit resemble a miniature two-inch diameter apple, hence it's other name Manzana de Hispanola (Apple of Hispanola). Depicted in the 1561 Swiss herbal of Konrad Gessner, this is one of the oldest documented varieties in the Roughwood Collection. Best suited for sauces.
Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost, then transplant outdoors to indicated spacing after all threat of frost has passed. All tomatoes benefit from staking; indeterminate varieties require it. Prune tomatoes when they reach about 24" high and are starting to produce small suckers. Keep plants from coming into contact with the soil, and water at the roots as often as possible to prevent the spread of soil borne disease. When fruit begin to become fully ripe, harvest every couple of days for the highest quality fruit. At the end of the season, harvest any fruits that have begun to take on color to ripen indoors.

I did it!
I am just back from one of my favourite weekends away ever! I completed my first marathon and spent the rest of the time celebrating!
It wasn't easy (surprise!!), even with months of training, but my running buddy helped me get through it. We had a very foggy start in Dubai, but by the end of our long run, I had some very impressive tan lines...the back of my legs are quite hilarious! I am looking forward to a cooler run in Seville.
A few kilometers in the 30s were the worse, but actually, I enjoyed most of it, I really did. We met some great people along the way and the expat crowds were very supportive.
It is all pretty much a blur. The 5 hours and 17 minutes (Yes, it took me that long...but I don't care!!) went by pretty quickly!! Really!
My medal has hardly been off my neck since...I even wore it at school today!
PS- My Internet is too slow tonight to upload any photos of the bling! I'll post them soon!

My love of mannequins & statues.
Maybe it's the actress in me who likes to pretend she's someone who can have a conversation or a relationship with an inanimate object. Maybe it's the girl who's comfortable with things that can't talk back or judge me. The one who loves animals and babies for the same reason. Whatever the mental case, I love love love mannequins and statues and inanimate things with a face and I love to throw my adult body all over them. Here's a small sample of some of those "people" I've met. I'm curious to know what your "thing" is?
7 comments:
I like the artistry and craftsmanship of blades and weaponry. It represents something primal, an elemental aesthetic. I look at statues and inanimate figures in a similar way…(wonvoyce)
ReplyDeleteI'm a nut for statues...and trees for some reason. I mean, can't pay me to go camping, but put me with a tree and I'm ridiculously calm for some reason...same thing when I'm around water. Also, children...there's something that draws children to me and I have no way to explain it. Very odd. Great to see you're blogging, hon!

A sensational Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey, this single barrel project is a powerful, pedal-to-the-metal, balls-to-the-walls style of bourbon that has been aged 10 years and has 45% alcohol, which makes it 90 proof. Seemingly bigger than that in the mouth, it is full-bodied with lots of caramelized citrus, maple syrup, smoky crème brûlée and cappuccino-like notes as well as terrific fruit from the fermentation. The wood is only a complementary aspect of this velvety textured, full throttle bourbon. It appears to be a classic.
95 points, eRobertParker.com (May 3, 2013)
B-21 Editor Note: We did some research on this to avoid confusion. The "single barrel" designation was removed from the bottle in 2014, yet production remains the same. It's still the same 10yr bourbon. To increase production, Eagle Rare introduced a new bottling line. Out of integrity's sake, Eagle Rare decided to drop the "single barrel" designation, as some barrels might mix in their second bottling line for the 10yr Eagle Rare.

This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 08/950,696, filed on Oct. 15, 1997.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to dispensers of potable liquid such as water, and more particularly to portable dispensers whose component parts are all integrated in a compact assembly for easy transportation and storage.
2. The Related Art
The present state of the art is typified by U.S. Pat. No. 5,154,317 to Michael A. Roppolo, III. The '317 patent discloses a liquid dispensing unit that requires a hand truck or "dolly" for supporting and carrying an insulated container suitable for storing potable liquid. The unit includes a battery positioned in a housing detachably secured to the frame of the dolly. The unit further includes a pump having a discharge hose connected to a manifold that is also carried by the frame of the dolly. The manifold is in turn connected to a plurality of liquid dispensing hoses for providing the liquid to users.
The invention disclosed in the '317 patent thus relies on a dolly as the framework supporting the component parts of the dispensing unit. As such, the unit is not compact nor is it portable in situations that prohibit access by rolling the dolly. For example, the dispensing unit of the '317 patent could not easily be lowered into a pit or manhole where workers are positioned. Furthermore, the unit is not easily loaded or unloaded from a vehicle when transported from one location to another.
In response to the shortcomings of the prior art, it is an object of the present invention to provide a portable liquid dispenser whose component parts are all integrated in a compact assembly for easy transportation and storage.
It is a further object to provide such a dispenser wherein the components are easily accessible for maintenance and/or cleaning.
The objects described above, as well as other objects and advantages are achieved by a portable dispenser, including an insulated container for storing potable liquid, and a secondary container connected to the insulated container. A submersible pump is positioned in the insulated container and has a discharge conduit connected thereto that extends into the secondary container via openings in the insulated container and the secondary container. A manifold is positioned in the secondary container and connected to the discharge conduit of the pump, and a plurality of liquid dispensing conduits are connected to the manifold for communication with the discharge conduit. Each of the liquid dispensing conduits extend from the manifold through a dispenser opening in the secondary container. Means for also provided for activating the pump whereby the liquid stored in the insulated container is delivered to the dispensing conduits via the discharge conduit and the manifold for consumption by a plurality of users.
The pump activating means includes an electrical power supply such as a rechargeable battery positioned in the secondary container and electrically connected to the pump via openings in the insulated container and the secondary container to form an electrical circuit. The secondary container has its own lid which is moveable between open and closed positions for permitting access to the battery. Switch means are electrically connected between the pump and the power supply to open and close the circuit. Each of the liquid dispensing conduits terminates in a dispenser nozzle assembly for controlling the flow of liquid through the conduits.
In one embodiment of the liquid dispenser, the insulated container includes an insulated body and an insulated lid having a circular opening therethrough. The secondary container of this embodiment is substantially cylindrical and has an outer diameter that approximates the circular opening permitting the secondary container to extend through the circular opening. The cylindrical wall of the secondary container includes a central conduit section whose outer diameter approximates the circular opening in the lid, and the central conduit section is positioned in the circular opening and connected to the lid such that an upper portion of the central conduit section extends above the lid and a lower portion extends below the lid. The cylindrical wall further includes upper and lower conduit sections whose inner diameters approximates the outer diameter of the central conduit section. The upper conduit section fits about and is connected to the upper portion of the central conduit section, and the lower conduit section fits about and is connected to the lower portion of the central conduit section.
In a second embodiment of the liquid dispenser, the insulated container includes an insulated body having an upper opening therein, and the secondary container serves as a lid that closes the upper opening of the insulated body.
In a still further embodiment, the pump is positioned in the secondary container, and has a suction conduit connected thereto that communicates with the insulated container via openings in the secondary container and the insulated container. The pump's discharge conduit extends to the manifold within the secondary container.

FIG. 7 is a sectional elevational view of the liquid dispenser similar to FIG. 2, but showing the pump positioned in the upper secondary container with the battery and manifold.
FIGS. 1-4 illustrate one embodiment of a portable liquid dispenser 10 in accordance with the present invention. Dispenser 10 includes an insulated container 12 for storing liquid, such as potable water. Container 12 is preferably a commercially available upright drinking cooler having a capacity of at least 5 gallons, such as those sold under the trademark IGLOO, and is made up of insulated body 13 and insulated lid 14. In typical fashion, lid 14 is connected to body 13 by lid latch 16, and container body 13 is provided with drain spigot 18.
Secondary container 21 is connected to lid 14 of container 12 through circular opening 19 in the lid, as seen in FIG. 2. The secondary container has a substantially cylindrical wall made up of three interconnecting cylindrical sections of PVC conduit. Central conduit section 56 has an outer diameter of approximately 8", closely matching the size of the circular opening. Central conduit section 56 permits the secondary container to extend through lid 14 such that an upper portion of the central conduit section extends above the lid and a lower portion extends below the lid. The cylindrical wall of container 21 further includes upper and lower conduit sections 20, 52 whose inner diameters approximates the outer diameter of central conduit section 56. Upper section 20 may be, for example, an 8" PVC "clean out" section having internal threads at its upper end for engagement by threaded PVC cap 22. Thus, the secondary container has a removable lid. Lower conduit section 52 may be an 8" PVC coupling having internal ring 51 for typical engagement by the opposing ends of PVC conduit coupled together in the coupling. Upper conduit section 20 fits about and is connected to the upper portion of central conduit section 56 using a suitable glue, and lower conduit section 52 fits about and is connected to the lower portion of the central conduit section also with the glue.
The cutting of circular opening 19 through dispenser lid 14 produces two circular discs from the cut through the respective upper and lower walls of the lid. Circular cutout 50 from the upper wall of lid 14 is positioned within coupling 52 from above, and placed upon and glued into engagement with coupling ring 51. Central conduit section 56 is also positioned within coupling 52 from above and then glued into engagement with cutout 50. In this manner, secondary container 21 is connected to lid 14 and provides a sealed environment for storage of certain components of liquid dispenser 10, as described further below.
Submersible pump 34, preferably a Rule brand pump having a capacity of 800 gallons per hour, is positioned at the bottom of insulated container body 13, and is equipped with a suction nozzle positioned for intake of the liquid stored in container 12. The suction nozzle may be provided with a suitable intake conduit (not shown) if necessary. Pump 34 further has flexible discharge conduit 40, such as a 3/4" hose, connected to its discharge nozzle with 3/4" stainless steel clamp 46 and extending into secondary container 21 via circular opening 19 in lid 14 and opening 41 in circular cutout 50. Connector 48 is mounted in opening 41, and includes a lower 3/4" hose barb mated to an upper 3/4" PVC male thread fitting. The hose barb extends below cutout 50 for connection to the upper end of discharge conduit 40, while the male thread fitting extends above cutout 50 for connection to manifold 43 disposed in secondary container 21.
As seen in FIG. 3A, manifold 43 is composed of a 3/4" PVC "T" connection having plugs 58 at two opposing ends thereof and a female threaded opening 42 for engagement with the male thread fitting of connector 48. Manifold 43 further includes three 1/4"�1/8" male thread-hose barb brass fittings for respective connection to three liquid dispensing conduits, such as 1/4" braided PVC hoses 28. The manifold thereby permits the liquid dispensing conduits to communicate with the discharge conduit of pump 34. Each of the liquid dispensing conduits extend from manifold 43 through a respective 1/2" dispenser opening 26 in secondary container 21.
Means, including 12v rechargeable battery 44 are included in dispenser 10 for activating the pump. Thus, as shown in FIG. 1A, battery 44 is electrically connected to pump 34 across switch 24. The electrical connections are made through electrical wires extending from pump 34 through opening 54 in cutout 50, via circular opening 19 in lid 14, to battery 44 and switch 24 within secondary container 21. Switch 24 extends through an opening in secondary container 21 for toggling between ON and OFF positions. The ON position closes the pump activation circuit, whereby the liquid stored in insulated container 12 is delivered to dispensing conduits 28 via discharge conduit 40 and manifold 43 for consumption by a plurality of users.
Dispensing conduits 28 each terminate in dispensing valve/lever assemblies 30, such as Chapin brand guns #6-4626 that control the flow of liquid to nozzles 32, such as Chapin brand adjustable spray nozzles #6-6003. In this manner, a plurality of users can each independently regulate the flow of liquid as desired.
FIGS. 5 and 6 illustrate a second embodiment of the liquid dispenser, referenced as 10'. For convenience, all components that differ in these figures from FIGS. 1-4 are numbered with the "prime" designations to distinguish the second embodiment from the first embodiment. Dispenser 10' includes typical insulated body 13 having an upper opening therein, but secondary container 21' serves as a lid that closes the upper opening of the insulated body. Thus, container 21' includes lower portion 14' that seats the upper opening of insulated container body 13, and upper portion 62' that forms a lid for container 21'. Upper portion 62' is pivotably connected at hinge 64' to lower portion 14'. Thus, upper portion 62' is moveable between open and closed positions permitting access to battery 44, manifold 43, and switch 24. Secondary container 21' therefore provides the same function as secondary container 21, but exhibits the same cross-sectional area as container body 13. This provides a greater surface area atop container 21', and permits liquid dispensers 10' to be stacked one atop another.
FIG. 7 illustrates a further embodiment of liquid dispenser 10, wherein pump 34 is positioned in secondary container 21 rather than insulated container 12. Thus, suction conduit 60 extends from the pump's suction nozzle to filter 47 positioned adjacent the bottom of the insulated container through an opening in the secondary container via opening 19 in the insulated container. The pump's discharge conduit 40 is therefor much shorter than in other embodiments, and extends to manifold 43 within the secondary container.
From the foregoing it will be seen that this invention is one well adapted to attain all of the ends and objects hereinabove set forth, together with other advantages which are obvious and which are inherent to the apparatus and structure.
It will be understood that certain features and subcombinations are of utility and may be employed without reference to other features and subcombinations. This is contemplated by and is within the scope of the claims.
Because many possible embodiments may be made of the invention without departing from the scope thereof, it is to be understood that all matter herein set forth or shown in the accompanying drawings is to be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.

Yet another one of those mystical puns. San Graal means "Holy Grail". Sang Real means "Royal Blood". According to some forms of the legend, the Holy Grail is not merely the cup of the first Eucharist, but also a repository of the blood of Jesus. Some -- see Holy Blood, Holy Grail -- have taken this as a metaphor for the bloodline of Jesus, preserved in the Merovingian Kings of France.

Renovations create nicer homes, better community amenities, and more-comfortable living spaces for your residents—all without having to endure a costly and lengthy entitlement process or a ground-up construction project—but the road to get there isn't always free of obstacles.
From a resident's perspective, renovations often mean loud noises, construction debris, a temporary loss of access to amenities, and other unwanted or unexpected inconveniences. Of course, despite being disruptive and resulting in higher rental rates, major renovations do ultimately benefit residents by providing them with a higher-quality home, community, and quality of life. During the often chaotic transition period, however, communication with tenants is critical.
Last year, Eller Capital Partners acquired three multifamily communities in Chapel Hill, N.C., that were desperately in need of major renovations. With aging interiors, major exterior deferred maintenance, inadequate amenities, and a lack of resident services, these developments failed to meet the needs and expectations of modern residents.
Today, these three assets have been transformed into high-quality, luxury apartment homes, but there were plenty of growing pains along the way. Constant communication between property management and residents proved to be a crucial part of these major renovation projects.
To keep your occupied properties running smoothly during major renovations, here are four things you should do for your residents before the first hammer is lifted:
1. Set expectations. Be transparent with residents about what they can expect throughout the renovation process. Explain that the renovations will be disruptive at times, but that, ultimately, the goal is to make the community a more-pleasant, more-comfortable place to live.
Let tenants know that renovations are often done in part to address significant, deferred maintenance and potential safety hazards, but also to make the units more energy efficient and better able to meet the desires of all residents.
2. Listen. It's is easy to understand why some residents might not be on board with major renovation plans at first. So, property managers should have an open-door policy and make themselves available to residents who have questions and complaints. There may not be a solution for every resident complaint, but it's still very important to make residents feel they're being heard. Take time to personally acknowledge each concern.
3. Keep residents updated throughout the renovation process. If the renovation time line changes, update residents as quickly as possible. Renovations rarely go exactly as planned, but don't leave residents completely in the dark. If the community pool was supposed to open in time for the hot summer months but will be delayed, keep residents informed of when it will open, and try to make other accommodations to replace the pool or any other amenity that's temporarily out of service.
4. Be proactive about media coverage. A proactive media campaign can help create positive buzz about an apartment community undergoing major changes.
How is the improved community affecting the local housing market? Our renovations to three aging multifamily communities in Chapel Hill, N.C., created an entirely new product in the area housing market.
Redeveloping existing, well-located communities instead of tearing them down and rebuilding from the ground up allowed us to offer high-end, luxury apartments at a price point that local renters—primarily young professionals and graduate students—could actually afford.
Determine how renovations have made your community the best in town, and tell your story.

Anyone who knows me knows that, unlike most book bloggers, I don't read many new releases. Like at all. Which is why when I saw the 2017 Beat the Backlist Challenge on Novel Knight, I knew it was my time to shine! (Kidding, but actually, not really.)
1) I am now hereby officially signing up for this challenge with the intent that at least 60% of the books I read in 2017 will have been published prior to 1 January of that year.
2) am also sorting myself into Gryffindor for the House Cup (reluctantly, because I super duper really want to be a Ravenclaw but have been told by numerous sources that this is a no-go).
What I Plan to Read
I'm kind of generally awful at making TBRs in advance, buuuuut I will toss out 10 books that have been on my Goodreads to-read shelf forever and which I would really like to get rid of (I mean, whose stories I would love to enjoy).
- Ironskin by Tina Connolly (and sequels)
- Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie (and sequels)
- Life: An Exploded Diagram by Mal Peet
- The Gallery of Vanished Husbands by Natasha Solomons
- California by Eden Lepucki
- Grimspace by Ann Aguirre (and sequels)
- Henna House by Nomi Eve
- The Personal History of Rachel DuPree by Ann Weisgarber
- The Orchardist by Amanda Coplin
- The Dovekeepers by Alice Hoffman
And with that…I am off to the races! (like Lana Del Rey, only not as well-dressed)

A friend of mine and I were downloading the new Netflix app onto his iPad, but I think he accidentally tried to download the IPHONE version. Anyway, we have an icon on the screen that says "WAITING," but it doesn't do anything. It just hangs around there and we can't delete it or stop it. How can we get rid of it? Thanks! kdp8106
Ok I got it hold down the power button and home button at the same time, until the apple logo appears then release and turn iPad back on, it worked for me
Press on the app until is says "Paused" Then, click it again. It will download. Just wait, then delete it. Or just restart the iPad.
I had the same thing happen. I went into the Apps section in Itunes and unchecked the last app that I had added. After applying this action, the Waiting icon went away. I then rechecked the app to add it back to the Ipad.
Apple suggests you download the app on your pc then sync....worked for me. Doesn't really help tho if you forget what app you where trying to D/L....
Well i have a diffrent situation. I have an ipad. I downloaded 4 apps. but they are still waiting and grey. And i cant delete them.
