From VOA Learning English, this is the Technology Report in Special English.
The World Bank estimates there are about 650 million mobile phone users in African countries south of the Sahara Desert. That is greater than the number of users in the United States and European Union.
Samia Melhem works for the World Bank to increase information technologies in Africa. She says mobile phones are the fastest growing technology on the continent.
Samia Melhem就职于世界银行,职责是促进发展非洲的信息科技。她说手机是非洲发展最快的科技。
"Faster than TV, definitely faster than electricity. More people have access to mobile phones and hence communication. More people have internet access today in Africa than they have access to water, clean water, or even sanitation. So we can say that this has been the most significant revolution in terms of changing the African landscape and how people live their daily life."
CNN television recently named seven ways of life it says have been revolutionized because of mobile phones. They include political activism, education, entertainment, disaster management, agriculture and health.
Another area is banking. Reports say half or more of the adults in Gabon, Kenya and Sudan use mobile money. Rene Mendy sells goods in the streets of Dakar, Senegal. But he never had enough money to open a bank account.
另一个领域是银行业。报道称在加蓬、肯尼亚和苏丹,有一半以上的成年人使用移动支付。Rene Mendy在塞内加尔达喀尔大街上卖东西,但他根本没有足够的钱来开银行账户。
Now he uses a mobile phone banking service called Orange Money. With his telephone, he can add or take out as little as one dollar. He can make payments and send money to family members who live far away.
Orange Money says it serves four million customers in ten countries. The World Bank's Samia Melham notes that the French company is facing competition from other mobile banking services.
"橙色钱"称目前的客户遍布10个国家,达到400万人。世界银行的Samia Melham说,这家法国公司目前遇到来自其他移动银行服务公司的竞争。
"The mobile banking is a huge trend. And people in the West don't understand it, because most people have bank accounts and they have credit cards. It [mobile banking] is the instantaneous acquisition of cash at a much lower cost. The cost is the cost of sending an SMS, which is almost nothing compared to what traditional transfer agents, like Western Union, would charge - 10 dollars or more for a particular money transfer."
In education, the United Nations agency UNESCO is holding its second Mobile Learning Week in Paris later this month. Conference delegates are to discuss how mobile phone use can increase the number of people who read. Other issues include how mobile technologies can support teachers, and make it easier for girls and women to receive an education.
And that's the VOA Special English Technology Report, written by Karen Leggett. Transcripts, MP3s and podcasts of our reports are at 51voa.com. I'm Steve Ember.

The Best D*** Mango Salt
Handcrafted Salts (30ml)
The name says it all.Don't know what more we need to say on this one. If you enjoy mango flavors as much as I do, strap in, because you've just found the best new mango flavor.
Customer Reviews
Best nic salt out there!
Thank you tbdliquids for recommending this juice line and everyone that recommended it. I just received mine in the mail yesterday and already had a different mango brand in that lost all flavor. I could tell when this juice soaked in and took over. Amazing flavor. Cant wait to try the others that I ordered as well. Thanks again. Will definitely be coming back over and over. Great products and service keep it up.
The name says it all! Just recieved this today and HOLY DUCK NUTS! This stuff is good! I have purchased mango from another vendor but nothing compares to this stuff. Hats off to the genius minds behind this product
The most aggressive e-juice flavor I have used from TBD. It really just gets me feeling amped to get things done in the day. The mango taste is like a fined tuned sports car in action. My 3rd favorite flavor from the craftsman here.
I've used the juul for a long time and searched high and low for a coil/juice combo that taste most similar to that of a mango juul pod and device. I just recently switched to the Caliburn for the simple fact of the price of juul pods skyrocketing. But I have to say although this is subjective, TBD mango and the caliburn .7 coil pods are the best closest tasting mango I've tried to date. I will certainly be a repeat customer and you guys nailed it. Thank you!

LONDON (Reuters) - Short-dated British government bond yields looked on track for their biggest daily rise in almost two years after the Bank of England left interest rates unchanged on Thursday, disappointing investors who had bet on a cut.
The BoE cited signs that Britain's economy had picked up since December's election and that the global economy had stabilised as indications further stimulus was not needed now.
Just before the decision, money markets had pointed to a roughly 50% chance that the BoE would cut rates to 0.5% from 0.75%.
The decision to hold rates sent sterling towards $1.31, up around 0.7% on the day, and British government bond yields higher. [GBP/]
The two-year gilt yield GB2YT=RR touched its highest level since Jan. 10 at 0.536% as of 1436 GMT, up 10 basis points on the day and on track for the biggest one-day rise since Feb. 26 2018.
By contrast, the 10-year gilt yield GB10YT=RR rose by 4 bps to 0.56%, thereby collapsing the British yield curve — or the difference between the two- and 10-year yields — to just 2.5 bps, its lowest level since Aug. 21, when the curve inverted briefly.
The yield curve is a guide to expectations for future changes in interest rates. A flattening yield curve is usually an indication that investors expect weak growth in future.
"Similar to other central banks, we think the BoE's threshold to change its supportive stance is high, so gilt yields will trade in its recent ranges and a significantly higher break out is unlikely," said Sajiv Vaid, portfolio manager of the Fidelity MoneyBuilder Income Fund.
The overnight index swap market here now prices in only a 17% chance of a rate cut at the BoE's next meeting, on March 26, and a 52% chance of one at its June meeting.
The spread between yields for 10-year gilts and the equivalent German benchmark Bund EU10YT=RR widened by 3 basis points to 94 basis points, the biggest gap since Jan. 14.

HISTORIC REVIEW – This article has been reposted from our previous gaming website project in 2011.
Sequel to the graphically impressive Need For Speed: SHIFT. SHIFT 2 does bring with it a much more refined menu system. Everything feels more at your finger tips compared to the original game.
Helmet Cam was being heralded as the next big thing in sim-racing. The concept seemed brilliant. In reality the whole feature is a big let down. Simply doesn't work. No control over the helmet view, the driver simply moves he's head when he wants to. Thus giving some of the most awkward racing views imaginable. Cornering becomes a serious nightmare. In-fact when the driver turns their head you'll almost always inevitably carear off the road and onto the grass.
Handling's as crazy as the first game. You'd certainly expect the handling to be greatly improved upon from the original considering how badly it performed. SHIFT 2 is a step-backwards from SHIFT. Less cars are included in this game. No longer are Porsche available.
SHIFT 2 is supposed to be a direct competitor in the sim-racing world to the likes of Forza and Gran Turismo. One of the creators even stated that those two games have too many cars in the game. Seems as though SHIFT 2 went with the minimal approach. Certainly wouldn't say it was a good idea.
SHIFT had so much potential. The graphics were some of the best in a racing sim but the handling was very twitchy to say the least. The cars always felt wild and span out of control far too often. With improvements to the handling SHIFT could've become a huge hit. Problem is the developers don't seem capable of doing just that.
Wheel support was continually lacking. SHIFT 2 took a long time for a patch to be released. Seemed as though the PC version was the least of the publishers priorities.
Need For Speed: SHIFT 2 Unleashed
SHIFT 2 is a real let down. Instead of building on the original and taking the series to the next level, the game has taken steps back. The menu system has improved but it seems all that's happened is a gloss over the main screen but when it comes to actual gameplay the game isn't as engaging or enjoyable as SHIFT. The series could've been a hit but now seems to have suffered an early death.
Fascinated with gaming since the old cassette based computers. Custom-building and repairing computers for 20 years and have been creating websites for 5 years. I've been a geek way before it became fashionable. Video game collector and gamer. Mainly a PC gamer though do enjoy console exclusives. Created Zorf Gaming to share my passion for gaming. I'm the web-designer/developer, content creator, editor, video creator. In essence this is my passion and I like nothing more than to share it with you. Currently writing my first book 'A Father's Daughter'.

Deodorants & Roll Ons - Unfortunately for all of us there is the issue of a little perspiration. You can't avoid it; whether you are working out in the gym or taking a stroll in the sunshine, sweating can and will happen. Not doing anything about it can lead to some unsightly wet marks and even a bit of a whiff that can be offensive to the nostrils. This is where deodorants and roll on anti-perspirants come into their own and really help to freshen and combat the effects of overheating and sweat. We have a selection of great deodorants and roll-on's to help with this such as Adidas, Gucci, Police, Hugo Boss and Lancaster.

Lavanderia solutions, regardless of whether in-house or off-site, may make the very best usage of cash, time, manpower, and all-natural assets by implementing several vital efficiencies inside their day-to-day functions. We will take a look at some tips from authorities while in the market. No matter if your small business handles medical center linens, diapers, uniforms, or many of every thing, these suggestions can lead to improved effectiveness.
Right Load Size
Under-loading a washer will induce the laundry to drift over the water's surface area, while overloading can result in a number of the objects not acquiring effectively thoroughly clean, or maybe soaked. Overloading can also cause jams, that happen to be time and manpower consuming. Ideal load ability varies based on the style of material getting washed, and its moisture written content. If your objects have huge dampness content material, you are able to maximize the load to above a hundred per cent of normal capacity.
When you are usually not specific how a selected variety of material will react inside the wash, start by loading at 70 % ability and high-quality tune when you begin to see the effects. By pinpointing the right load measurement for each variety of linen, you might be ready to boost the quantity of laundry you wash by just as much as 25 p.c without extra time or devices.
Turnaround/Hold Moments
Turnaround time would be the time involving the completion of a clean cycle and also the get started on the up coming load. Obtaining the subsequent load organized, labeled clearly, and prepared to go lowers this turnaround time.
If you have tunnel washers as opposed to regular washers, check out your hold time. Functioning a tunnel washer quicker than the dryers can manage the linen results in the tunnel to go on "hold." It is actually greater to elongate the tunnel wash time for each pocket than to permit it to continuously go on maintain. If you appropriately agenda the linen blend under-going a tunnel, you could assist keep the equipment managing effortlessly.
Preventive Maintenance
Preventive upkeep of laundry tools may also help optimize functionality, reduce down time, and increase the life of one's tools. Some new machines have built-in maintenance messages to remind laundry managers when day-to-day, quarterly, and yearly servicing in needed. In case your devices does not have that, comply with the manufacturer's preventive routine maintenance suggestions.

This week in Ward Counsel we were talking about how we could help our investigators and one of the members said to take his mom with him because she likes to visit and talk to people and is friends with everyone. So one evening we went to go and talk to her about visiting a couple of our investigators with her. So we got into her house, sat down, and started to talk and somebody knocked. So she went out and it was one of our investigators that we wanted to have her befriend! So we talked to both of them for a while and the investigator was like, "How are you like you? I want to be like you! You're always so happy and friendly, what is it about you? How can I be like you?" It was perfect! We started talking about the gospel a little bit and what's keeping her from baptism, but it was fantastic! Things are going in the right way with her!
Dear Family and Friends!
It's already March! I can't believe it! I feel like Christmas was just yesterday! But now we're in March! And I still write 2015 in my journal sometimes! Time is flying! I feel more old every day! For the Zone Conference we had with President Rogers this week, I was one of the most experienced missionaries so I didn't have to do the practices, all the missionaries had to practice on me! That was really weird!
Also this week, we talked to a hippie. Hippies are fun to talk to:) This one told us lots of funny things. Like for instance the reason that the world is flooding is because of the Panama Canal. I guess that all the boats we are putting in the ocean is causing it to overfill, so if we are going to put more boats in the water, we needs to take rocks out of the ocean to make more room:) Also someone is trying to destroy the pyramids of Mexico (he didn't clarify who) because they are evidence that the Egyptians were a worldwide empire (: Also we need to start putting satellites on top of mountains and not in outer space because when they fall from the sky they create giant tsunamis that destroy Japan (: So yeah, it was an interesting half of an hour I spend standing on a corner of a street in Maximo Abasolo. We even tried escaping, but he would move to block our paths! It was interesting!
I hope that you all have a fantastic week!
¡Les quiero un monton!

On the same day Saints receiver Michael Thomas became the single-season reception leader with 145, he set another more specific all-time mark.
With 136 receiving yards in a 38-28 win over the Titans, Thomas now has 1,688 for the season, and 5,475 receiving yards for his four-year career. That's the most that any player has generated in his first four year, breaking the record set from 1998 through 2001 by Hall of Famer Randy Moss, with 5,396.
Thomas undoubtedly will push the record past 5,500 on Sunday against the Panthers, possibly past 5,600. In the same game, he'll also be extending the single-season catch record beyond 145.
And while Thomas has a long way to go to approach the upper reaches of the all-time list, his production through four seasons and his ongoing partnership with coach Sean Payton lays the foundation for an eventual assault on the all-time catch and yardage records.
Not bad for a second-round pick.

If any brave souls want to help test out some new character sheet printing features for FG, please check the following links. There are XSL sheets for D&D 4E, D&D 5E and Deadlands Reloaded. You should be able to look at those files (the deadlands and 5E ones may be the easiest to follow) and build your own XSL sheets or modify the ones included. This is just an early alpha stage at this point. If we like this general approach, then we can look to include this functionality as a built-in component to Fantasy Grounds once we complete the move to Unity.
Link to the file:
Steps to print your character:
- Launch the Campaign and go to the Character Select Window
- Export the character using the list menu (turn on first)
- Launch the character printing tool
- Select an XSL sheet that matches that system (only 3 supported right now)
- Select your character xml file that you exported earlier
- Select the name of the output HTML
- View the result in the launched web browser and print

Snippet Time!
I haven't totally fallen off the face of the Earth, just fallen behind. Without connecting to a writing group, here's a snippet from my WIP, a steampunk fantasy romance targeted at the 18+ New Adult audience. The working title is The Farm. Today I'm sharing an early point when the heroine, Annmar leaves her home in the city to take a new job. She will be doing advertising for a large 'collective' farm in a rural location called Blighted Basin.
With a blast of steam and a jerk, the five-thirty a.m. train to Gaptown pulled out of Glenwood-on-Tyne's station. Annmar heaved a sigh of relief. Worrying that someone would stop her was ludicrous, but… She'd been most careful, confiding only in Polly. The glow on the eastern horizon hinted at dawn as the train crossed the misty fields of the outlying farms. An unusually large grouping of five barns and three silos caught her eye, and she knew the spread belonged to Shearing Enterprises even before she found his logo on the tallest silo.
So she wasn't past his reaches yet.
Annmar hadn't told Mrs. Rennet about the new job, just gave her notice at the end of the day. Mr. Shearing would try to wheedle her destination from the shopkeeper, who unfortunately would do anything for a price.
On the way to the boarding house, she made one stop to purchase the half-dozen sketchbooks she needed in case she stayed the winter. The 'hinterlands', as Polly called Blighted Basin, might not sell fine paper, so why not get them now that she had the money to do it? The brown-paper wrapped package went into her trunk, along with her few reminders of her home with Mother.
Additional excerpts are posted under my novels, and linked here. Thanks for reading!

The meeting lasted 2 hours.
Prosecutor General Yury Lutsenko on Saturday, may 11 held a meeting with newly elected President Vladimir Zelensky.
According to her, the meeting lasted 2 hours.
"An official meeting at the invitation of the newly elected President with the attorney General," said Gar.
According to journalists, the meeting was in the office and Zelensky "95 Quarter" in Kiev on the street Belarusian, lasted 2 hours and concerned the alleged law enforcement, including the Prosecutor General.
At the same time Bihus.info note that on Monday, may 13, the press service of the District administrative court of Kiev declared that the Prosecutor General's office started pre-trial investigation into possible interference in the work of judges of the Supreme officials of the state's decision on the illegality of the nationalization of "PrivatBank".
It is noted that the judges were asked to begin pre-trial investigation against the current President Petro Poroshenko, the Minister of justice Pavel Petrenko and Chairman of the national Bank of Yakov Smoliy.
"The judges didn't like how the officials commented on a judge's decision on the illegality of the nationalization of PrivatBank at a meeting of the national security Council on April 18. The judges think this is a threat to the judicial system. The recognition of the illegal decision on the nationalization of the Bank – into the hands of the oligarch Igor Kolomoisky, who made no secret of his desire to regain control of the Bank", write the journalists.

St Mary's Parish, originally belonging to the Brighton Mission, was established on 18th April 1883 by Archbishop James Goold. The present site was obtained in 1855 and the First Mass was said in a tent, in December 1864 by Archbishop Goold. The next day, he laid the first stone for the first St Mary's Church, which was completed in 1866.
Initially our parish spanned from the mountains to the sea, from as far as Emerald in the Dandenongs to the Mornington Peninsular, Phillip Island and Western Port Bay and into South West Gippsland.
Our Parish has seen an amazing population growth, which is now compressed into a comparatively small but vital area.
Over the years these Parish boundaries have been whittled away with the emergence of new parishes - a healthy sign of a living church. There are now 40 Catholic Parishes within the original St Mary's Parish Boundaries of 1883.
St Mary's Parish Dandenong, a parish rich and alive with multiculturalism having more than 50 nationalities, which has been growing during the years and has still a total of nearly 1500 families.
St Mary's is continuing to be built upon faith, commitment and generosity of its parishioners; St Mary's has developed a strong sense of volunteering and active participation in the life of the Parish, many people help in many ways to contribute to the everyday and major events of the parish.
The future of the parish holds many challenges for us.

ALTHOUGH we are not legal experts and cannot express an informed opinion on the legal intricacies of court cases, there is a point raised in the judgement of the Conor O'Dwyer vs Karayiannas Developers case that makes no sense at all.
In her judgment, the judge noted that "the fact they (plaintiffs) submitted a sales contract to the Land Registry did not mean they automatically and in perpetuity have become the 'owners' (as they mean it) of the residence."
This is a bewildering view that would suggest that the irrevocable right to property is not protected by the law in Cyprus. If a sales contract for a property that is submitted to the Land Registry does not mean the buyer has become the owner in perpetuity, then we have a serious problem with our laws.
How and when would a buyer become the legal owner of a piece of real estate in perpetuity? Are we to believe that our law does not always safeguard the right to ownership of property?
These are very important questions that nobody should be asking in a country in which there is rule of law. The protection of property rights is one of the fundamental principles on which democracies are built. Yet the judge in the above-mentioned case did not believe that submission of a sales contract to the Land Registry was enough to guarantee a person's property rights. If this is the case, and the judge understands the law better than us, people should be told how their property rights are protected when they buy real estate.
Until this judgment was issued, most people were under the impression that once a sales contract was submitted to the land registry, the ownership of the buyer was indisputable. There is a Supreme Court decision supporting this position, but the judge in the O'Dwyer case either disagreed with it or was not aware of it. Whatever her reasons, her decision was another nail in the coffin of the Cyprus property market, as it served to reinforce the widely held view among foreigner buyers that Cyprus law offers little protection to property buyers.
There could not have been a worse advertisement for the Cyprus property market than this decision. When a judge rules that not even submission of a sales contract to the Land Registry safeguards property rights, what foreigner, in his right mind, would consider buying a holiday home in Cyprus?
Readers' comments
Comments on this article are no longer being accepted.
@ Dave. There are several Conor cases ongoing. He lost one and won another with a few still to come up I believe.
Should not the MEPs table a motion asking the EU to suspend the EU presidency from Cyprus, til they have in place effective rule of law, and effective property laws ?
O well back to letter writing to your MEP and your local MP wherever you may be or what ever job title they have.
Tell them the story once again.
Sooner rather than later it will become like Tunisia and Egypt. Some thing will have to give and go.
Keep up the pressure.
Why was this bent island allowed into the E.U. they are just milking it. Cyprus now has the dearest Elec in the E.U. this has doubled in 5 years as has Rates and petrol. It seems if they run out of cash they just put prices up. Now we are not allowed to show our tax discs is this because most Cypriots do not have them, now only the police can know that. They will never get this North South divide sorted out as long as I have a hole in my **** road outside my house!
Conor Conor I heard last Tuesday that he had lost his case then I hear last Saturday that he has won it. Now that we are in the E.U. why does a independent lawyer not want to know the answer to Conor's dilemma, which one is right?
Cherie Blair accepted the case of the Orams' she took their money but they got no real answer.
Title deeds amount to approx 100,000 mostly due to ex-pats multiply this by 5-7K. and you have a lot of noughts a lot of money, this is what the Cypriots want so why do they not take it.
My Title Deeds are registered but apparently this makes no odds. Why do they not ask if you would like to get your title deeds with your final payment, this could save a lot of time.
Why is there no such thing as a Solicitor who wants to know the answers to the above, or do they know, but it is just a matter of which is right at the time, if it suits them. surely the law books cannot be that complicated, if there are any.
Finally Merkel got on very well with the president on her visit here regarding the N/S divide, agreeing with him all the way,this can only mean one thing,that she does not agree with Northern Cyprus either. Another checkmate.
What a shambles !!! What sort of message dose this send out to the less trustworthy of the Developers?
May be this judge is having a nice retirement home built in the hills? (I wrote this before reading the comments below)
I would never buy in Cyprus again!
Once again the few (Greedy Cypriots) spoil it for the majority.
Why cant the EU do anything? If it were happening in England, then they would be all over us like a rash.
U Boat !
We are talking about the opinion of a judge passing judgement on a single case on the evidence placed before her; who as you point out should have made reference to any existing case law in order to come to an informed decision. Sadly only by going to appeal and achieving a 'case stated' outcome would there hopefully be an informed outcome? Maybe she's married to a property developer!
The words of the judge in this case may have caused some alarm, but there is at least one previous case in this context where the judges' conclusions should raise concern.
The case of Beaumont and Sims vs Nicos Papacleovoulou was taken to the supreme court in April 2010, and was reported on this website. The appellants had paid for a house that was subsequently seized by the bank under the terms of a loan taken out by the developer who 'sold' it to them. The contract was signed in 1999 and was subject to the very 1997 Sale of Land (Specific Performance) Amendment that is supposed to 'protect' us buyers.
They successfully sued the Lawyer who acted for them in the purchase, however the points noted by the judges in this case would seem to at variance to statements and reassurances given by Ministers, Lawyers and the Supreme Court itself.
The judges noted that a buyers lawyer should check to 'ensure that there were no registered charges that would PREVENT the future transfer of title free of encumbrances'.
Further it was noted by them that a buyers lawyer should 'warn the client of the DANGERS emanating from possible insolvency of the vendor'
It was quite clear from these remarks and from the circumstances of the case that the Protection afforded by Specific Performance is very limited.
This particular piece of legislation purports to set out a court procedure whereby a property buyer can force a seller to obtain the necessary licences and certificates that would facilitate the transfer of registered title to the buyer.
Bafflingly it envisaged that this can be done without the involvement of certain 'interested parties'. Interested parties who may be excluded from the procedure, it is imagined, include anyone who holds a MORTGAGE over the property (a Bank, for instance) and the REGISTERED OWNER, if he is not the vendor.
That is a rather surreal scenario.
Perhaps 90% of property 'owners' in Cyprus are without Title Deeds. They are exposed to great risk and this disgraceful situation is because they have placed trust in people who display breathtaking greed, dishonesty or incompetence.
@JRB – I finished paying for my property over 9 years ago and still no sign of the property being transferred into my name, meantime the developer is free to take out a second mortgage against the property without telling me.
Worst, my friends paying by instalments were told the next one was due, which was after the walls had been plastered. A visit to the site showed this was not the case, but the developer withdrew his workforce and left the shell saying. "Well if you want it plastered it is due". After 5 weeks my friends made the payment and the works team were sent back in. There is a point at which the developer has most of your money, so stage payments mean very little. You are between a rock and a hard place.
Has Graham Watson MEP been informed off the Court decision? I think now he can go to the EU Commission with this.
Despite what the EU claims are the internal safeguarding laws in Cyprus regarding consumer protection, it is obvious that no-one gives a damn about them when it comes to property development.
If the judiciary cannot be relied on to adhere to the internal laws either, then purchasers have no security of tenure whatsoever in what is rapidly proving to be a lawless member state of the EU.
However, if this case goes to the Supreme Court on appeal, it will be interesting to see whether that court supports the assertion of the female judge in the O'Dwyer saga. She may well get overruled.
It seems reasonable that just because you submit a sales contract that the property does not become yours until the terms of the contract are complete. I have just submitted a contract to the land registry office.
I have put a 20% deposit on the property, but this property will not be transferred into my name until I satisfy the terms of the sales contract. i.e. pay the balance.
At which time the property will be transferred to my name to do as I like. I think some are misreading the judges comment or it has been taken out of context.
Cypriot law is based on English law. However what you were conveniently not told is that property law is based on Ottoman law.
As is now obvious to most decent law abiding foreign nationals now is that you must be totally mad to risk buying now that all, or should I say a lot, of the facts are known.
If you wish to risk losing all your savings, or if you wish to launder money fine, go ahead & do so, but not if you are making the decision to invest your life's savings. There are plenty of other sunnier and morally sound, ethical countries to choose from.
We have been warned.
One of my first questions when I was considering buying in Cyprus was "how does the legal system work regarding a foreigner buying property here?" I was told there were no problem as Cypriot law was based on English law.
Another lie it seems.
@Nigel – Remember previous comments comparing a UK Log Book (V5C Registration Certificate), to a Title Deed? Proof of ownership..
Well, I just checked my Log Book and it clearly states the following..
"THIS DOCUMENT IS NOT PROOF OF OWNERSHIP. It shows who is responsible for registering and taxing the vehicle."
Does this mean the Cypriot judges ruling could carry some weight?
If so, this will seal the fate of the Cyprus property market and as you say…another nail in their coffin.
@Nigel – This really does stink of Nepotism !
Either that or the judge dislikes non-cypriots.
How can Conor find out if the developer has family connections within the Cyprus law courts?
I bet the judge studied and qualified in the UK.
Keep on digging a deeper hole Cyprus. If you think the (stupid) English will continue to buy Cyprus property, think again!
What the judge is saying is that you are wasting your time bothering to deposit your sales contract at the land registry, and if the value of your house goes up the developer can just sell it again from under you. But he will probably leave your name on it if the value falls, depending how he feels….Nice one Cyprus

In screen-film mammography, a phosphor screen in a light-tight cassette absorbs a fraction of the incident x rays. This fraction, typically 60 to 80 percent is known as the quantum efficiency. The phosphor also converts the energy to light and has a certain conversion efficiency for this process. The light is coupled to a sheet of photographic film by direct contact of the screen and film within the cassette. The signal is recorded in the form of a latent photographic image on the film. This is developed by chemical processing to produce a pattern of optical density on the film, which is then viewed by transillumination. The film itself is both the recording and display device and, in addition, is the archival record of the examination.
In digital mammography, the image acquisition and display operations are separated. The image is acquired by a detector which converts the x-ray signal into electronic form, and then it is digitized or quantized into one of two to the nth power (2n) intensity levels. Typically, n, the number of bits of digitization, is 12 or 14, giving 4,096 or 16,384 image signal levels. The digital image is also sampled spatially (i.e., either the detector surface is composed of separate x-ray sensitive elements or else the output signal from a continuous detector is broken up into discrete elements each representing the signal from a small area at the detector's entrance).
Screen-film mammography has inherent physical limitations which reduce its effectiveness.
• The film gradient needed for high contrast must be balanced against the need for wide latitude. This is illustrated in Figure 3.21, which is a characteristic curve for a mammo-graphic screen-film combination. The gradient of the curve falls off both at low and high exposures, resulting in a loss of contrast in those regions. If the film gradient is increased, the range of exposures between the minimum and maximum optical densities on the film decreases further.
• Detection of microcalcifications and their portrayal with clarity of the margins of breast masses are reduced due to the presence of film noise and screen blur in the displayed image.
• Film-processing artifacts occasionally degrade the mammo-graphic image.
• The day-to-day variability in performance of automated film processors can produce suboptimal image quality.
In digital mammography, the processes of image acquisition and display are separated so that each can be optimized independently. The image is stored as a matrix of numbers, where each number represents for a specific small square or "pixel" in the image, the number of x rays reaching that point after having been transmitted by the breast (Yaffe, 1992).
Detectors for digital mammography can be designed to have a linear response to x rays over a very wide range of exposures (Figure 3.22). After the image data are recorded, it is then possible to apply a transformation to display the image on a high-resolution

Komšić: Dodik is powerless, but Vučić's understanding is disappointing
Press release , FENA/Photo Archive
SARAJEVO, February 16 (FENA) - Messages that Mr. Milorad Dodik sent on Saturday from Belgrade and which very clearly and unashamedly state that the ultimate goal of such a policy is to break up the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina and create a Greater Serbia, have unfortunately not come across any condemnation of the President of Serbia Aleksandar Vučić, but of tacit approval, said the BiH Presidency Chairman Željko Komšić, who is on a working visit to the Vatican, referencing a meeting in Belgrade between Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić and representatives from Bosnia and Herzegovina's entity of RS.

Whatever happened to those Gaulfests, and other wonderful crisp winter outings that SOTA used to enjoy between Christmas and New Year? The weather has been truly awful. Then again, I did get out on Christmas Day and Boxing Day.
The next opportunity had to be carefully planned. New Year's Eve saw both G3CWI and myself with pass-outs from our respective XYLs. However, the Met Office rain radar was painting a gloomy picture across the UK.
Call it clutching at straws if you like, but I reckoned that if we didn't start too early, and had things wrapped up before too late, then a window of opportunity existed in a narrow band between two bands of heavy rain, centred on the Clwydians in the middle of the day. Richard was content to trust in this optimistic view and we planned to visit Foel Fenlli GW/NW-051 and Moel Famau GW/NW-044.
This was an especially nice day for me as Richard offered to do the driving. When we first arrived at Bwlch Penbarras, it was tipping it down. We needed to delay our start. Me buying a pair of new waterproof overtrousers (my old ones were ripped to shreds) and us both taking a full cooked breakfast in a cafe in Ruthin wasted the necessary time.
This time, as we parked up on Bwlch Penbarras, the rain had all but stopped. We commenced the haul up Foel Fenlli GW/NW-051, with me stopping for rest breaks and gasping for air and betraying my lack of exercise and serial over-indulgence over Christmas.
As we set up our respective stations on summit, the rain returned with intent, and we both quickly pulled our bothy bags over ourselves and our gear. I found that 12m CW was open, but seemingly only to a small specific region. For the only two QSOs I made were to EA9 and ZB2! I resorted to 2m FM from the handheld, which brought the two I needed to qualify the summit.
Richard GW3CWI/P set off on his descent, reporting around 40 QSOs on 40m CW. I made one final call on 12m CW, and worked Roger MW0IDX. This gave me a new DXCC for 2012 on 12m, so many thanks Roger! The rain stopped, and I took a little extra time on summit enjoying my steak & potato soup, knowing that Richard intended sitting in his car drinking coffee.
After meeting back up following my descent, I strode out on the low path to Moel Famau GW/NW-044. Again I struggled with my fitness, and the pace was slow. So slow in fact, that as I approached the junction between the low path and the middle path, there was Richard ahead of me coming off the middle path and pressing on with his faster stride, presumably assuming that I was still ahead. I never saw him again until the summit!
The summit of Moel Famau was not as windy as it had been on Foel Fenlli, and the fact that it had remained dry throughout the ascent was a bonus. I could see Richard's 40m dipole erected by the fence. I decided to use a patch of the flat grass on the North-East side of Jubilee Tower to set up the 12m vertical.
This time, the band was in much more useful shape. Mike DJ5AV called me for the first QSO, then it was USA all the way, with eight consecutive QSOs into the US. I packed up, and to Richard's horror put out a CQ call on 2m FM with the handheld. To Richard's further horror (he is clearly a cold-blooded reptile like Jimmy, and gets cold when it's cold), I then enjoyed a run of seven QSOs on 2m FM. But it is good to consider the needs of the chasers who had not the opportunity to work the summit on CW, I always feel.
We walked back down to the car park, somewhat surprised at the vast numbers of ill-equipped people, some with toddlers in pushchairs, making their way to the summit in fading daylight and soon worsening weather. Sure enough, as we got to the car, the heavy rain began. Perfect timing!
73, Tom M1EYP

Top Reasons Why it is Highly Advisable to Consider Accepting Credit Card Payments in Your Business
In general, a lot of money is highly spent by consumers than it was in the past. As a businessperson, it is highly advisable to consider improving your processes to get out in-front numerous customers to benefit from their increase. The most critical thing you can do to boost your business success is by starting to let your customers use cards as they shop. Here are some of the advantages of allowing customers to always use credit card payments in your business.
It is highly advisable to approve the use of credit card payments since you compete with other businesses that accept them as well. In general, competition is what drives businesses. Because being competitive in your industry is vital, it is recommendable to take a look around and find out if your competition is allowing the use of credit cards in their business.
Through the use of credit card payment in your business, you realize that sales will go up. As a result of giving people more different ways to pay for the products they have purchased in your business, the number of people you will sell to. Another reason, why you ought to accept credit card payments, is that you are capable of performing business from anywhere. A perfect example of conducting your business from anywhere, is ability to sell your product door to door.
The advantage of taking payment through credit card is because you need to be customer-centric Most people dislike being hindered form paying for items in their most appropriate way. The customers get upset with the fact that it is not possible for them to buy as a result of having no liquid money. This is evident in when you look at the reviews of the businesses that accept cash only online. There are countless number of people about the industry accepting cash only. You cannot solve the problem by availing your clients an ATM, they will feel that you intend to get more cash from them.
Having a tone of processing options is the other benefit of accepting credit card payment. Do not let fear to set up and hinder your ambitions of accepting credit card payments. With the tech-age we have today, it is easier to do so that it has ever been. There are literally so many credit card processors you can work along . Some of the brands are actually ones you can recognize. When you read more, you will get the insight on how you need to begin the process of allowing an electronic mode of payment. By allowing the client to use credit cards to make payments, you know you are safe from theft. When you talk to business owners they will tell you that one of the things they fear is getting their money stolen.

CBD oil is prohibited for sale by terms of service on the major online marketplaces, including Amazon, eBay, and Groupon. Most of the products sold as CBD oil on those websites are hemp seed oil and don't contain any CBD. We've also heard many reports of counterfeit and potentially dangerous products being sold as CBD oil on those websites. Your best bet is to always buy directly from the CBD company's official website.
Everything you need to know about marijuana (cannabis) Marijuana, or cannabis, is the most commonly used illicit drug in the world. It alters the mood and affects nearly every organ in the body. With at least 120 active compounds, marijuana may have health benefits as well as risks. We describe these, addiction, and withdrawal. Learn more about cannabis here. Read now
Amazon reviews may be few, but each are 5-star and outline excellent experiences in the management of pain and stress. On the company's website, a plethora of customers site amazing experiences in managing pain. Consumers of Panacea's F.A.S.T. hemp oil tablets are assisted in chronic pain and symptoms of anxiety, and mention assistance with sleeplessness and opioid use as well. All in all, buyers on amazon have experienced excellent satisfaction in results following regular use.
Vaping CBD oil is one of the preferred methods to ease side effects of diseases, illnesses, and ailments including Leukemia, all types of Cancers, stress, anxiety, joint pain, seizures, inflammation, sleep apnea, high blood pressure and the list goes on. There are many benefits to CBD vape oil. However, the effectiveness of CBD helping with these conditions (and many others) hasn't yet been scientifically proven, and many trials are still in pre-clinical stage.
Great article! Excellent point by Matt, precisely why I found this article. I would just add that the CBD percentage in the extract can be significantly lower than even the 20%, but its probably fair to use that to give a rough idea how much CBD might be in an Amazon product, so divide the claimed percentage by 5!. Claims of up to 60% on Amazon are totally ludicrous, any concentration above 20% CBD become darker very viscous and the CBD starts to crystalize in the bottle! You would need to heat the bottle (which can damage the properties of the carrier oil) to re-liquidize! Also beware of Amazon reviews which are notorious for being fake. As author suggests, contact seller for full data sheets or seek a reputable supplier elsewhere that gives full transparency of information up front.
Currently, the only CBD product approved by the Food and Drug Administration is a prescription oil called Epidiolex. It's approved to treat two types of epilepsy. Aside from Epidiolex, state laws on the use of CBD vary. While CBD is being studied as a treatment for a wide range of conditions, including Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, diabetes, multiple sclerosis and anxiety, research supporting the drug's benefits is still limited.
Hemp-derived CBD oil products were made federally legal in December 2018 with the signing of the 2018 Farm Bill. However, several states still have laws in place that restrict the sale and possession of these products. Most companies selling CBD oil are shipping to all 50 states. You should consult your local laws or an attorney in your area if you have concerns about legalities.
The majority of consumers who have used Serenity Hemp Oil 1000mg have experienced positive results. Several customers on amazon cite benefits in becoming more independent from opioid medications, in addition to better management of anxiety and sleeplessness. Many consumers on amazon say they enjoy the orange flavor and taste. Negative reviews are few for Serenity Hemp Oil 1000mg. The majority of those who have not had a positive experience claim an inability to assist with chronic pain and pain brought on by arthritis, something that could be achieved with CBD oils rather than hemp oil.
That being said, if you type "cbd oil" on Amazon in its search box, you will get search results that appear to be CBD oil. This understandably confuses people looking to buy CBD oil online. The reality is that most of those products are just hemp seed oil that don't contain any CBD. There is definitely a difference between hemp oil and CBD oil as explained in the article "What's The Difference Between Hemp Oil and CBD Oil?"
To be clear, there is no one specific test, scan, or anything else of the sort that you can do to determine whether or not you need CBD oil for pain. Also, since cannabis is not yet recognized by the FDA, you unfortunately can't really go to your doctor either and have them recommend it; until marijuana is FDA-approved, it cannot be prescribed by physicians.
But the best way to enjoy CBD oil's effectiveness is by following the product's instruction. If it's your first time to use CBD oil, recommendations are that you start with a small dose and increase gradually. As a result, your body will get used to the cannabinoid. As you gradually increase the dosage, you get to experience greater relief consistently. If the discomfort you are trying to relieve is much, you may get attempted to use more dosage of CBD oil. But this is wrong as it may get counterproductive. Besides, you may suffer from fatigue, or feel groggy and mildly sedated.
If you're ready to get your CBD on, picking any of these high-quality vape liquids will give you the best possible introduction to this wildly popular substance. The VaporVanity editorial team has verified that these are some of the best CBD vape oils on the market today, so you can rest easy knowing that as long as you choose from this list, any choice you make is certain to be a good one.
In short, CBD oils made from hemp must contain less than 0.3% THC – this is below the legal federal limit (and is why many CBD oil companies claim to be able to 'legally ship to all 50 U.S. states'). In contrast, cannabis CBD oils (that you'd find in places like medical marijuana dispensaries) may have a much higher THC content, given that they are made from marijuana rather than hemp.
Hemp-derived CBD oil products were made federally legal in December 2018 with the signing of the 2018 Farm Bill. However, several states still have laws in place that restrict the sale and possession of these products. Most companies selling CBD oil are shipping to all 50 states. You should consult your local laws or an attorney in your area if you have concerns about legalities.
We know your time and resources are valuable, which is where we can help. We have deep knowledge of the industry and products, and are personally dedicated to finding and selling only the highest quality hemp-derived CBD oil products. Our founders Annie Rouse and Jason Amatucci have worked in the hemp industry for over a decade. They actively write legislation, consult with manufacturers, and educate the general public on the benefits of hemp for public health and the economy.
How to vape CBD oil is up to you, but remember that effects are stronger as a concentration of cannabidiol rises. Vaping CBD oil is nothing special and unlike nicotine, users of CBD vape oils work their way up instead of the opposite. Vape oil on itself is safe and there is a lot of scientific evidence that clearly demonstrates that CBD oil for vaping has genuinely nothing to do with getting high.

Our bodies' ECS is responsible for producing natural cannabinoids that contribute to our feeling pleasure, pain, alleviating anxiety, regulating sleep patterns, and controlling appetite. When one consumes CBD oil, his/her body's cannabinoids gets supplemented with cannabinoids. As a result, the body's natural cannabinoids production increases. In doing so, your ECS system's natural healing ability gets enhanced.
I have read about studies from Europe (not very specific I know) that suggest CBD might work better for some people if combined with some level of THC. Also, the getting high part can be helpful, although not for everybody, of course. A second point – I don't hear very much about CBD eliminating or almost eliminating pain for people with severe pain. Helpful, but, so far at least, it doesn't seem that CBDs can replace opioids or substantially reduce pain for all chronic pain patients. Maybe someday.
