PRN: Reducing Pesticides in Water

Reducing Pesticides in Water
BRUSSELS, April 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
- Crop Protection Industry Intensifies Water Protection Measures
Today a strong delegation of more than 90 people, representing research institutes, national authorities, farmer associations, water industry and crop protection industry, gathered in Brussels for the TOPPS-prowadis* workshop to exchange views and discuss practical solutions for professional pesticide users on how to best mitigate water contamination from diffuse sources.
"What we describe as diffuse sources is the pesticide run-off and drift on the field level" - Philippe Costrop, project chairmen of the initiative explained. "As diffuse sources are often the main cause of water contamination, we want to offer concrete recommendations available for farmers to protect water."
"Under TOPPS-prowadis projects we have been preparing best management practices (the BMPs) full of advice, training materials and information for farmers with tools on how to reduce losses of crop protection products to water bodies. Â Now you can also find them on our freshly launched website (http://www.topps-life.org)" - Philippe Costrop added.
Continuing on from the previous year's TOPPS projects the TOPPS-prowadis, run by the European Crop Protection Association (ECPA) in collaboration with numerous EU partners, plans to reach out to 350,000 farmers and their advisors, land managers and pesticide operators in key European agricultural markets, addressing main European water protection issues and the new pesticides legislative requirements.
"One of the main water related "Time to Change" projects,  the crop protection industry plans to expand the TOPPS-prowadis initiative going forward to all EU member states" - said Friedhelm Schmider Director General of European Crop Protection Association (ECPA).
"Studies have proven that with simple risk mitigation measures and best management practices 80% of water contamination can be prevented. Minor modifications applied by the farmer can have a significant impact on water quality. The understanding that it can be markedly improved by knowledge transfer to the field has been driving all of our efforts"- Friedhelm Schmider concluded.
The European Crop Protection Association (ECPA) represents the crop protection industry interests at European level. Its members include all major

The scholarships will attract a reduction in fees as determined by the Principal and will continue until the student completes his education at Christ Church.

Supermarkets This Large
by David Hernandez
They bloom and loom in cities no one notices.
High-walled, million-bricked, a roof on cloud turf.
All the letters and numbers are here, all the senses.
Even if you don't need a tub of mayo or a Monet
knockoff, it's nice to know you know where to go.
Into the traffic of carts and chattering a woman
merges with a dozen boxes of Kleenex Softique.
A man in overalls reads out loud his shopping list
as if uttering ceremonial phrases. When one
looks closely at the display cabinets that hold
the glittering watches, one's breath on the glass
is an apparition playing peek-a-boo. I'm flatfooted
in the last row in the furthest aisle. I'm feverish
with colored spots fireworking in my periphery.
I hear someone say, Here we don't die, we shop.
I hear someone reply, Once we stop denying death,
everything tastes better. Meanwhile, a forklift
beeps as it lowers crates of strawberries, hundreds
huddled between the wooden slats. Little hearts.
Hungry tongues. It depends who you believe.
David Hernandez's poetry collections include Always Danger (Southern Illinois University Press, 2006), winner of the Crab Orchard Series in Poetry, and A House Waiting for Music (Tupelo Press, 2003). His poems have appeared in FIELD, The Missouri Review, Ploughshares, TriQuarterly, and The Southern Review. (2/2008)

We recently updated StoryBoard Quick 6 to StoryBoard Quick 6.0.4. Registered users can download it for free! Just go to your help menu and choose Check For Updates.
Update? or Upgrade? What's the difference. We get this question all the time. So here's our answer and our philosophy.
Updates are provided by our tech staff and include minor changes or minor feature upgrades to help you maintain your current version. Both Apple and Microsoft release minor updates (bug fixes, security patches, optimizations) between new OS versions and at times their updates conflict with PowerProduction Software's code. So our tech staff is constantly testing and busy keeping all of our products current and optimized for both Macintosh and Windows Operating Systems.
Upgrades, however, are new versions of the software. Typically a new version has a new "Look and Feel" and new number. PowerProduction Software upgrades when the "technical landscape" changes radically or when new features require rewriting a good percentage if not all of the code.
So with that explained, the latest update to StoryBoard Quick 6 is a free download to current registered users of SBQuick 6. The update reads Final Draft (scriptwriting software) new project format which streamlines the ability to import scripts into StoryBoard Quick 6.
With the latest update of StoryBoard Quick 6, you no longer have to export your screenplay from Final Draft. So update today. Use the Help Menu to check for updates. We'd love to hear from you about how you use the new import for your screenplays.

Prayer system?
But I feel I'm lacking a system that allows me and reminds me to pray through the many requests of people in my life: health issues, family members, relationships, difficulties, and just general requests shared by all of you and those in my small groups. I say I will pray and I want to pray, and most times I do. But not as regularly or consistently as I would like.
So here's my question: what kind of prayer system works for you? How do you remember to pray through various requests for people in your life? A notebook, a prayer journal, note cards, a simple list of names? Anyone know of a computer-based system? I seriously think that might be a good option for me since I am on the computer frequently throughout my days.
I'd love to hear what works for you or what you've tried and it didn't work. Please share! Except, of course, if you are one of those people that can remember every name and every request of every person in your life who has a need :) Then just tell me so I can give you my prayer requests...
2 comments:
- The Oppold Family: said...
So what works for me...when I have a friend who is in need and I need to pray frequently but still need to be mom, I light a candle or two. Each time I see it or smell it, I pray for the need.
I've seen (but have not done,yet) a poster board approach to monthly prayers. Where there's a box for each day and then slots listed and they fill in the slots according to need and desire. I've heard great things and about this and would love to do it. They post the board on their office wall or pantry door some where they again see is often:)

For me personally, it was a great relief to get rid of those systems and just pray when it comes to my mind! And that didn't reduce my prayers, in the contrary, it made it much more joyful to intercede!

April 13, 2017 08:30 ET
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - April 13, 2017) - Chesswood Group Limited (TSX:CHW) ("Chesswood" or the "Company") announced today that it has exercised US$30 million of the US$80 million accordion feature in its existing corporate revolving credit facility.
The Company's credit facility contains an accordion feature which permits the Company to increase the size of the facility to an aggregate of US$250 million from US$170 million. The facility matures in December 2019 and Chesswood had drawn US$154 million under the facility as of the end of March.
Chesswood's overall leverage remains modest following the sale of its two non-core finance businesses over the last year and the subsequent pay-down of its credit facility with a majority of the proceeds. The Company has a strong balance sheet that is well positioned to support its portfolio growth while continuing to provide shareholders with an attractive yield, paid through monthly dividends.
The Company's syndicate of six banks is led by Royal Bank of Canada and includes BBVA Compass, Bank of Montreal, National Bank of Canada, TD Securities and Laurentian Bank of Canada.
"We're grateful for the continued support of our lenders and the vote of confidence this represents for Chesswood and our teams in the U.S. and Canada," said Barry Shafran, Chesswood's President and Chief Executive Officer. "This partial exercise of the accordion reflects the continuing growth of our portfolio in 2017 as we approach 30,000 contracts and $600 million of gross finance receivables," added Shafran.

Seniors On the Rise
June 7, 2017
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
After 13 hardworking years, seniors are graduating in less than 24 hours! It will be so exciting to see what the seniors choose to peruse with their lives after high school. Some seniors tell us their plans and what they hope to do.
"I am going to college after high school and I want to get into real estate and become a real estate agent. I want to make a lot of money!" Jahaila Johnson says.
Each student is so different and going in many different paths.
"I am planning on moving to Bellingham and going to Whatcom community college. I then am going to switch to Western Washington University after finishing my four years. If I save enough money I definitely want to join the peace core for a year and I'm super excited for what the future holds." Kylie Kelleher says.
Colleges, Careers and aspirations. Each student speaks passionately about what the future holds.
"I am going off to Washington State University and I'm SUPER excited. I've been waiting to go to Washington State University my whole life and my dream is coming true. I want to be a flight attendant but if that doesn't work out I want to be in the hotel business. I am going to major in hospitality," Gracie Moore says.
It is very sad to see the seniors leave Glacier Peak but it also is such a joyful moment. Each senior is an adult now and starting the next chapter of their lives. Don't forget to take the chance to say goodbye to your senior friends on their last day Thursday June 8th at school.

This is the final installment of our celebration of Masters week with an intimate look at the course at Augusta National, celebrating its history and tradition.
No. 13 – Azalea – Par 5, 510 Yards. The final leg of Amen Corner contains the second bridge in play, nelson Bridge, stonework that connects the tee box to the fairway and named for Byron Nelson following his performance at the 1937 edition – he made up six strokes over two holes on 12 and 13 with a birdie and an eagle to race past Ralph Guldahl and win the tournament with a 5-under 283, earning a cool $1,500 for his troubles. The water plays a role twice, the second and scariest time right before the green. Hit it too short and you're going for a swim; too far and you're in one of three back bunkers.
No. 14 – Chinese Fir – Par 4, 440 Yards. No bunkers? Rejoice! At least until you start noticing all the subtle elevation changes on the green. Misread a lie here and you'll end up renting a room on the grass. How tough is it? Nick Price once logged an eight here in 1993.
No. 15 – Firethorn – Par 5, 530 Yards. Water, water everywhere. A pond is in front of the green, and a second pond, part of No. 16's layout, is right behind it. Even worse, the front of the green is steep enough that if your ball lands there, it's probably going to roll backwards into the water. In 2013, Tiger Woods' approach shot hit the flagstick and bounded into the pond, from where his incorrect drop – and the ensuing penalty – cost him a potential title. Sarazen Bridge- named for Gene Sarazen on the occasion of his double eagle here in 1935 – is both a mark of beauty and a potential hazard.
No. 16 – Redbud – Par 3, 170 Yards. The biggest body of water to date looms large in front of the green, which is surrounded on three sides by bunkers. On Saturday, the hole is flushed right, near the top bunker, making it a real pain in the clubs.
No. 17 – Nandina, Par 4, 440 Yards. This will be the second year without the mighty Eisenhower Tree, but that doesn't negate the grandeur of the penultimate hole. The hole's difficulty actually went up a small amount (4.24 in 2014 compared to 4.22 in 2013) after the tree was removed.
No. 18 – Holly, par 4, 465 Yards. You thought perhaps it would be easy? Up, then down, then back up, the finally two sand traps around the green which has multiple tiers to just mess with your confidence that much more.

As we reported today, Senate President John Morse is one of a number of state representatives who are being targeted for recall due largely to their support of the new gun laws.
Morse, a Democrat, represents the central part of Colorado Springs, as well as Manitou Springs. And the recall effort is being led locally by the El Paso Freedom Defense Committee, an issue committee registered with the Secretary of State's Office.
The Democrats are putting up a fight.
On Sunday, at 2 p.m., supporters of Morse's will be gathering at Pikes Peak Library District's Penrose Library, 20 N. Cascade Ave.
From the Facebook event page for "A Whole Lot of People for John Morse," also a state-registered issue committee:
You may be aware that a recall effort against has been mounted against our Senator Morse. The reasons behind this effort is primarily because of his votes on the recent gun control measures. They are now targeting him for his support civil unions and the Asset bill. Recalls are supposed to be used against elected officials who have violated the law not because of their voting record.

Theodosii Spassov
Kaval – Bulgarian wooden flute
Theodosii Spassov was born on March 4th, 1961. He began his early training on the kaval at the Kotel Music School and The Academy of Music and Dance in Plovdiv/Bulgaria. The kaval, an eight-hole wooden "shepherd" flute, is one of the oldest Instruments in Europe, rich in tone and technical possibilities. Theodosii Spassov has developed his own unique style of playing the instrument by synthesizing traditional folklore with jazz, fusion and classical music.
Theodosii Spassov has contributed to 20 CDs, four of his own, which have been noted worldwide. He has composed and performed numerous film scores including a French-Bulgarian feature film "Granitza", ("The Border") 1993. Also he recorded themes for films by Italian composers Carlos Siliotto and Ennio Morricone, entitled "An Italian Story" and "The Breakout of the Innocent". At the fourth European Jazz Night, Theodosii Spassov was a featured performer along with other jazz musicians, including Winton Marsalis.
Theodosii gets everything out of his KAVAL when playing his unique compositions. They include elements of traditional folklore music as well as jazz, classical music and even pop. His very own way of playing has not only impressed audiences during his concerts and festival appearances, but also fellow musicians, who cooperated with THEODOSII SPASSOV in the past years. Among them are Dave Liebman, Andy Sheppard, Yldiz Ibrahimova, Ennio Morricone, Jamey Haddad, Albert Mangelsdorff, Mark Johnson, Kazumi Watanabe and many others.

By Joseph Ax
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Wing Chau, an investment adviser made infamous in the "The Big Short," a best-selling book about the financial crisis, wept on the witness stand during his administrative trial on Friday before yelling, "Shame on you!" at a lawyer for the U.S. government.
The dramatic moment came as Chau attempted to defend himself against charges from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that he misled investors in a complex financial vehicle linked to subprime mortgages.
The trial is one of the highest-profile cases in which the government has sought to hold an individual responsible for events leading up to the 2008 financial meltdown.
On Friday morning, the fifth day of the trial, Chau gave several long, sometimes meandering answers to questions from Howard Fisher, an SEC prosecutor, about his firm, Harding Advisory, and its management of a $1.5 billion transaction called Octans I CDO Ltd.
At one point, in response to a seemingly innocuous question about whether he had reviewed management agreement documents before signing them, Chau became emotional, saying he was upset that Harding employee Alison Wang had been forced to endure questioning in the trial from SEC lawyer Daniel Walfish and his own defense lawyers.
"What we did to poor Alison was wrong," Chau said, crying. "I should have stopped it. Shame on me. Shame on you, Mr. Walfish!"
It was unclear what portion of Wang's testimony, which took place earlier this week, had upset him. But Chau told the judge he had cried only twice before in his adult life, when his mother and father died.
Just before the lunch break, Chau answered a question from Fischer with a minutes-long monologue on the causes of the collapse of the collateralized debt obligation market in 2008.
That prompted Administrative Law Judge Cameron Elliot to send Chau out of the courtroom so he could warn Chau's lawyer, Alex Lipman, that he was "not impressed" with the testimony.
"His answers are evasive and discursive," Elliott said. "If he wants to help himself, he should just give a straight answer and stop talking. So far, I am not finding him to be a particularly credible witness."
Elliott also said he would likely include Chau's "shame on you" shout in his ruling and encouraged Lipman to speak to his client during lunch about his testimony.
Lipman said he was surprised by the judge's opinion because Chau had been entirely truthful. He also said Chau's emotional outburst was authentic.
After the proceeding, which could last two weeks, Elliott will issue his ruling on whether Chau is liable. If Chau loses the case, he may appeal it to the full commission of the SEC, and ultimately, a U.S. appeals court.
The SEC has charged Chau and Harding Advisory with allowing hedge fund Magnetar Capital LLC to have undisclosed influence over the selection of collateral for Octans I.
According to the government, Magnetar played a role in the deal despite its known strategy of taking short positions on mortgage-backed securities in CDOs, including ones it was investing in, as it was in Octans I.
The CDO deal, which closed in September 2006, was structured and marketed by Merrill Lynch. The CDO failed in April 2008, leaving investors with $1.1 billion in losses, the SEC said.
Bank of America Corp, which now owns Merrill Lynch, agreed in December to pay $131.8 million to resolve claims the company misled investors about Magnetar's role in two CDOs, including Octans I.
Chau has sued the SEC, seeking to block the case against him, arguing that the regulator had violated his constitutional rights by "shoehorning" its case into an administrative proceeding after failing to win similar cases elsewhere.
Last month, U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan denied Chau's request to block the SEC temporarily from pursuing its case.
Chau was featured prominently in "The Big Short," Michael Lewis' bestseller about the economic crisis. Chau sued the author in 2011 for defamation, claiming he was unfairly portrayed as a "villain." A federal judge in New York threw out the lawsuit last year.
Chau, who has not yet answered questions from his own lawyers, is expected to continue testifying into next week.

During the height of winter when the snow's piled high, and there's not even the slightest encouraging sign that temperatures will rise anytime soon to usher in the splendors of spring, it's depressing to think how much more will have to be endured before things improve. While our present storms may seem especially intense and inconvenient, they are nothing compared to what the colonial inhabitants of the Northeast, and New England in particular, had to deal with one winter season almost three centuries ago. The winter of 1716-1717 was especially severe, producing the largest quantities of snow the eastern seaboard has received in recorded history. A series of snowstorms in late February and early March of the latter year produced a blanket of snow of truly biblical proportions, which henceforth went down by the name of the "Great Snow of 1717."
The previous months of winter before the destructive storms arrived compounded the situation even more. By the end of December five feet of snow had already fallen; by the first week of February drifts were noted to have reached the 25 foot mark in some places. So when the storms part of the "Great Snow" began rolling through on February 18th, and continued almost unabated until March 9th, the entire countryside was devastated. Business and communication came to a standstill, and even church services—a staple of New England more important than food to the mostly Puritan inhabitants—were cancelled. By the end of it the snow lay on a level 10, 15, or even 20 feet deep!
Snow drifted to such heights as to completely bury shorter one-story houses. In certain instances even the lofty chimneys became engulfed by the ever-shifting snow. Henry David Thoreau details in Walden how a settler's home in Sutton, Massachusetts was nearly entirely concealed. If it wasn't for a passing Indian who "found it only by the hole which the chimney's breath made in the drift" the occupants might have met an ignonimous end. Numerous other families faced identical predicaments of being trapped inside, unable to shovel out of the icy prison. Rescue parties were sent to help locate and dig out the elderly and infirm. In one instance, before rescuers arrived and relieved the home of a widow and her children, she had been forced to burn a substantial portion of her furniture to ensure that her family didn't freeze to death.
Livestock and wildlife fared even worse. Multitudes perished as the snow slowly buried the animals alive. Even the protection offered on the leeward sides of buildings, where drifts have difficulty forming, wasn't enough to stymie the deluge of snow. Cotton Mather, a resident of Boston, famous for his treatises on witchcraft and the supernatural, wrote one of the most detailed accounts of the storms. "Vast numbers of Cattel were destroyed in this Calamity," he writes, further adding that in the spring after the snow had melted sufficiently to reveal the damage some "were found standing dead on their legs, as if they had been alive many weeks after." One wealthy landowner had lost upwards of 1,100 sheep.
Despite the rampant fatalities, this isn't to say there weren't tales of "strange survivals." While digging out a flock of about a hundred sheep, two were miraculously found alive, buried for 28 days. These lucky (or unlucky) creatures depending on your take on it, had managed to survive by "eating the wool of their dead companions." Similar amazing stories of rescue abound. Groups of pigs lost beneath the snow for identical amounts of time had managed to stay alive by eating a little tansy that remained on the ground, rather than feasting on their compatriots.
Wild animals were pushed to the coastline, the only relatively snow free place around. Deer that had managed to escape succumbing to the weather congregated on the shore, only to be devoured by the wolves and other predators that were similarly drawn to the coast by a promise of open space and a luxurious fare of food. It is estimated by Mather that "not one in twenty [deer] escaped." For many years after the storm certain persons called "deer-reeves" were annually elected to manage the remaining deer populations to ensure their continued survival and reestablishment.
The storms were of such a severity that even "Indians near a hundred years old, affirmed that their Fathers never told them of anything that equaled it." During the whiteout conditions mail delivery (and essentially all communication between towns) was impossible. Even after the snow had subsided the postriders were greatly delayed, having to trade in their horses for snowshoes. On the advent of spring, March 25th, a postboy noted that it took him 9 days to cross between Salem, MA, and Portsmouth, NH, a distance of 40 miles. In the woods the snow was measured to still stand at 5 feet, with drifts rising to between 6-14 feet. What's more, bodies couldn't be interred to the grave, people in taller houses had to make an exit through second-story windows or dig tunnels from house to house, and orchards were decimated. With the snow rising to such heights and later garnering a firm icy cuticle, it was possible for animals to graze on the uppermost tops of fruit trees, which never was able to occur before the storm. Cattle were observed to traipse over the tops of snow drifts of a dozen feet where they "fed upon ye Trees as very much to damnify them."
While it's easy to dismiss these harsh storms as a fluke, since nothing of this magnitude has presented itself to the Northeast on such an encompassing scale in 299 years, as history shows, natural events such as these tend to repeat themselves sooner or later. It has been surmised that the potency of this event was aided by an abnormally high amount of dust in the atmosphere caused by numerous volcanic eruptions in the Pacific during 1716. In the future, global warming could potentially enhance our storms in a similar vein. They aren't predicted so much as to increase in frequency, as they are to become more severe. We may one day, too, find ourselves dating important events as occurring before or after the "Great Snow of 20--."

A childhood exploring the scenic Laurentians in Quebec, Marie admits she was a nature loving girl. She and her brother would spend hours walking nearby the creek looking for wild mussels and frogs, and fishing on the side of a tiny lake near their home in the small village.
As a child, Marie was far more interested in watching her father paint rather than picking up a paintbrush and painting something herself. Even with an artist in the family, she did not start painting until she was re-introduced to it in her teens. Somehow life got away from her somewhere in-between, and she did not paint again until ten years ago.
In 2010, Marie moved to Calgary to pursued the development of her hobby by studying art at the Calgary School of Art. In 2012, she took art classes with Danielle Bartlette, a contemporary art instructor in Calgary. "She is an amazing teacher and her paintings are stunning," Marie says. Learning many techniques, and using a variety of acrylic mediums, Marie admits she discovered a passion in abstract painting that she did not realise would excite her as much. She says, "Now I am totally in love with this type of art."
Marie admits to being a big fan of Gerard Jonas, who is a self-taught, and a self-styled spontaneous abstract expressionist painter.
Having previously attended art classes while on a beautiful four years stay in Bermuda, she also learned Chinese Native Painting, which she still loves to this day.
Although Marie has used oil paints in the past, and says her dad preferred using oil for paints, she decided to switch to acrylics after attending art classes. This is when she discovered the possibility of creating mixed media pieces, noting that there is almost no limit to what she can create. She uses modeling paste, and also likes to add other elements such as sand, ink, gold and silver leaves, to add interesting texture to her work. As her techniques evolve, so do her results.
"I want my paintings to be joyful and most importantly, I believe that everybody should be able to own an original painting," she says. With this message, she keeps her prices affordable, and hopes people looking at her paintings can feel the emotions of the colours, brushstrokes, scribblings and textures she has added.
Having exhibited her artworks in ten different art shows over the past year, Marie was recognised as a January 2015: RAW Artist, and ended 2015 with high record sales at the ArtSpot's Annual Under $100 Art Show, selling over 40 paintings in four days. It seems 2016 has no plans of slowing down for her either.
This month, Marie Manon exhibits a wide range of abstract paintings from her latest collection at Motion Gallery. The exhibit can be seen from March 2 – 27, 2016.
You can also find two of Marie's paintings at Brookfield Homes Show homes, and more of her art in "One White Wall" Elevation Gallery, in Canmore.
She reveals she has an exciting new project coming up this spring and invites everyone to an open house event at her studio next month, saying "I will have an open door Studio event on April 2, 2016. Everybody is invited…"

Tuscany Holidays Ideas For All Types Of Travelers
The Italian language was born in Tuscany. Famous ancient writers and poets hail from Tuscany (such as Dante Alighieri).The delicious Chianti wine is mulled in Tuscany. This region has A LOT to offer! From the beauty of the hills to the clear blue sea via the calm plains and the big cities, Tuscany has something for everyone! Here are some ideas for all types of tourists.
It's easy to find a beautiful beach in Tuscany, just head West.Here are a few of the best beaches. First, the Island of Elba is AMAZING (…though a bit expensive), its landscapes are a "must-see" of Tuscany! Between two sunbaths, you can go explore the pretty little towns like Portoferraio, Capoliveri, Rio Marina and many others. Next, Parco della Maremma in Southern Tuscany has great beaches such as Calo bagno delle Donne. A tiny bit more North and you'll find the unique Cala Violina in the heart of the Riserva Naturale delle Bandite di Scarlino, famous for its white sand and clear blue water. In the North, the area of Versilia also has beautiful beaches too: Marina di Carrara, Forte dei Marmi, Pietrasanta, Camaiore. But it's hard to find a « free beach » in the North of Tuscany, which means in some, you'll have to pay to lay on the beach, you can't come with your own towels nor sit wherever you want. If you are into the spiaggia libera (free beach)life, I advise you to go in the South of Tuscany instead!
Florence is nicknamed the "art palace of Tuscany" and holds a huge concentration of Renaissance art and architecture. It has museums such as the Uffizi, (with the world famous Botticelli's The birth of Venus), the Pitti Palace, the Bargello and many others. In Italy, you don't even have to pay to see high art, just go to the Florence Cathedral, Siena Cathedral or Pisa Cathedral and those alone will blow your mind! Pisa is known for its leaning tower and Siena for its Piazza del Campo, but there are so many other things to see. These three cities already have a great reputation, so you'll probably find whatever you need to know on Internet as well.
Besides that, I'd recommend you spend at least one day in Lucca and take a guided tour. It's a very nice city, much quieter and a lot smaller than the three biggest ones and yet equally as lovely. Don't forget to check Livorno and Pistoia as well while there.
Relaxing natural hot spring sounds like your thing?…And guess what? Tuscany has plenty of them across its region. Some have been privatized by spa centers but others still offer free access. Here are some natural hot springs where you can bathe for free: Terme di Petriolo, Sasso Pisano, Saturnia, Bagni San Filippo and San Casciano dei Bagni.
To continue relaxing, you can find accommodations in the calm countryside. The Chianti area between Florence and Siena and Val d'Orcia (World Heritage Site by UNESCO) between Siena and Grosseto have picturesque landscapes and are rich in high quality local products. What better way to discover the local gastronomy?
What about hiking the Monte Forato in Garfagnana in the province of Lucca to admire Tuscany from above? And while you're in Garfagnana, go discover a wonder of nature: the cave Grotta del Vento. I would also advise you to walk at the Passo di Dante on the Monte Pisano between Lucca and Pisa. It'lloffer panoramic views of both cities and a great sea view (sunset photo opportunity).
WARNING: blast from the past guaranteed. Tuscany is full of well-preserved medieval villages. San Gemignano, Volterra, Montepulciano, Pitigliano, to name a few. Visiting here and you'll find yourself in postcard landscapes. You'll ask yourself if people have really lived here for all this time because it's still so authentic. If you want to go even further back in time, stay in Volterra and go looking for the Roman theater ruins.
As you can see, Tuscany is amazing! Why not add it to your next holiday travel list? Enjoy!

A firewall is a piece of software or hardware that functions in a networked environment to prevent communication between areas with different degrees of trust. The term comes from the same word as that applied to a construction that is used in construction to keep a fire from spreading if one should start.
A personal firewall is a software application that monitors and can block the flow of data between the internet and your computer. The firewall is a key part of your computer security set up. It prevents hackers from gaining access to your computer using an internet connection.
Almost every single home in America now has a personal computer, and almost every single one of these computers is hooked up to the Internet. The Internet is a valuable new way of communicating, gathering information, and purchasing, but it has also given rise to a whole new breed of criminals and miscreants who love to prey on the uninformed or the unsuspecting in order to make a profit or just to have what they think is a little bit of fun. It is vita that you protect your computer and your information from being accessed by these people, who are becoming ever more innovative when to comes to achieving their perfidious goals. A key instrument in the fight for your computer's security is a firewall.
If you have any personal information on your computer at all and access the Internet it is vitally important that you consider the benefits of a computer firewall. Many people lock their homes, lock their cars, keep a watchful eye on their children, and yet leave the bank accounts, personal information, and all kinds of other information vulnerable and exposed through their personal computers.
The most common type of firewall is the personal firewall, and this type in fact will come with most Windows software from the XP version forward. Although the model was not at first used very much, the emergence of the Blaster worm and the Sasser worm forced Microsoft to begin developing a more comprehensive software application that offered users better protection for both their home and office networks.
The next generation of Microsoft Firewalls takes the security of the personal and business computer one step further, by offering advanced protection against the phone home capabilities of both viruses and software. These firewalls will allow you to detect any activity that goes out form your computer, so that you know who is receiving information about what you are doing and your transactions online.
The fact is, every personal computer needs a firewall, just as any business system does. But you probably do not have to worry about going out and buying one on its own- your operating system likely has included one for you. Your job will be to find out how to set your operating parameters, and tell your firewall what to allow and what to block on your computer. It is especially important that you seek help when attempting the manipulation of your firewalls functions whenever possible, as mishandling will render your firewall useless. Instead, do not adjust the levels until instructed to by a tech help from the developing company. If you keep the documentation of the procedure, you will be bale to prove that it was their lack of knowledge, and not your own, that led to any informational leaks which caused some kind of stress.
A virtual attack can be just as devastating financially and emotionally as someone breaking into your home. They are allowed access to secrets you may have shared in confidence with online friends or even offline friends that you correspond with online, they will have passwords for financial and banking accounts, they will know where you buy your coffee; they can learn where your children go to school. The information we have on our personal computers is staggering in terms of personal security nightmares and yet so many people take no steps to secure this information from prying eyes by investing in a simple computer firewall.
The amazing thing is that you can even find free computer firewalls available online if you know where to look. I highly recommend paying for a computer firewall though if you have little knowledge of the inner workings of your computer. If you're going to secure your families secrets you may as well invest in a very good program with constant updates in order to do so.
A computer firewall isn't just a nice thing to have on your computer; it is a vital line of defense for you and your family. Keep this in mind when choosing the best computer firewall for you. Remember you want to have a service that will provide updates and keep up with evolving technology that would harm your computer or steal your personal information.
There are two types of firewall available to the home computer user. A hardware firewall is a device which sits between your computer and the internet. At home for example it could reside on a broadband router which is used to share your internet connection with a number of computers. One of the advantages of a hardware firewall is that it can be used to protect more than one computer at a time. For this reason hardware firewalls are deployed in corporate networks. For home users who own just one computer a personal firewall is more commonly used and more cost effective.
Hackers gain access to your computer through open ports that are used by your computer to communicate with the internet. The most basic firewall programs, like Windows XP's firewall, monitor and can block "inbound" traffic by closing these ports. If theses ports are closed a hacker cannot access your computer directly via the internet.
More advanced firewall programs like products from ZoneLabs or Symantec also monitor and can block "outbound" traffic. This extra level of security is important and is worth investing in. For example, if malicious software like a Trojan Virus or spyware were installed on your computer without your knowledge the firewall would alert the user when it tried to connect to the internet and prevent it communicating with its host.
A firewall usually works at two basic levels. Firstly, packets of data are analysed based upon IP address and content to see whether they comply with a set of rules which a user can input to. The second level the data is analysed is at the application level. The firewall determines whether an application can send and/or receive data and the port which it should be communicating through.
The firewall "learns" through continuous interaction with the user. It seeks user approval from programs when they first come in to contact with the firewall. Most firewalls also allow the user to allow or block applications through a stored list of program which can be accessed through the firewall's user interface.
There are a number of sites which will help test your firewall's effectiveness. A number of these sites are run by security software vendors so it is recommended you test using an independently run site to double-check any results. One of the best independent test sites is run by The Gibson Research Corporation. They offer a free test called "Shield Up!" which can be found at their website – http://www.grc.com. The test checks a number of well-know and vulnerable ports on your computer and then provides some useful additional information to help improve your security while online.
It is important to remember that the firewall is only part of your computer security and does not negate the need for a good anti virus solution, a spyware removal tool and a degree of caution / common on sense on the type of websites a user visits. For example, the firewall will not scan for viruses or remove them from your computer.

Ghana's main opposition leader Nana Akufo-Addo skipped the country's only presidential debate on Wednesday, leaving the stage to President John Mahama and four other opponents a week before the election.
Aides to the leader of the New Patriotic Party said he decided to stick to his prior campaign commitments, even though it meant missing the chance to present his message at one of the most high-profile events of the campaign.
Analysts say Akufo-Addo has a real chance of defeating Mahama or of taking the Dec. 7 election to a second round, largely because of voter discontent over an economic slowdown since the president won the first of two possible terms in 2012.
In the absence of a large number of reliable opinion polls, politicians on all sides say they expect a tight contest.
Ghana exports gold, oil and cocoa but has suffered from a slump in global commodity prices and macro-economic instability in the form of inflation that stood at 15.8 percent last month, an elevated budget deficit and high unemployment.
The government says the economy will recover after it increased revenues and took tough measures to limit public sector wages and spending. Some of the measures were taken as part of an aid programme with the International Monetary Fund.

ALHAMBRA, Calif. --A massive apartment fire in Alhambra forced the evacuation of several buildings on Tuesday night.The fire broke out just before 11 p.m. at North 3rd and West Main streets at a large apartment complex that was under construction.
The building was reportedly fully engulfed in flames when firefighters arrived, and the fire quickly spread to nearby buildings.
Firefighters evacuated several nearby buildings, including a senior center, and one woman was treated for smoke inhalation.
Flames could be seen all over the city of Alhambra.
The fire burned down the building that was reportedly supposed to be a complex for senior citizens and damaged some neighboring apartments. The Red Cross is helping displace residents.
Battalion Chief Ray Mosak from the Alhambra Fire Department said the cause of the fire has not been determined.
Firefighters continued to douse the building with water early Wednesday morning.

Buying and selling wild animals: Part 1
4 August 2015
Read part 2 of this article
The live wildlife being sold on auctions show a continual change in the type of animals entering the market, with increasing numbers of rare animals and exotic colour and morphological variants entering the market recently. This has created a record turnover of R1 875 133 871 for 29 281 animals sold in 2014. Of these sales, most of the animals were sold on catalogue and boma auctions. However, it is estimated that these wildlife auctions only represent some 20 per cent of all the wild animals being sold, with the rest sold privately.
Live wild animals for sale can be marketed in various ways, two of which are internet and catalogue auctions by the owner... (Become a subscriber for more)

Although we don't believe in timing the market or panicking over market movements, we do like to keep an eye on big changes -- just in case they're material to our investing thesis.
What: Shares of independent oil and gas company Ultra Petroleum
So what: During the second quarter the company's revenue fell 39% to $170.3 million, which was well below the $283.7 million analysts expected. Adjusted profit of $55.1 million, or $0.36 per share, was ahead of the $0.33 per share mark analysts set, but after a $1.2 billion writedown, the company lost $1.19 billion in the quarter.
Now what: Low natural gas prices are not only hurting sales, they are the cause of the huge writedown this quarter. The company is hoping that prices rebound as rigs move to liquid-rich plays, but until that happens I'm staying far away from natural gas stocks. I've been hearing about a bounce in the price of gas for year, but it has yet to happen and I'm not buying this stock until it drops down and financial performance improves.

In the Age of Wushu, you will frequently come across tasks that require beating up monsters. This might entail beating them up in order to collect Items.
Beating up Monsters usually requires finding them:
If it is required for a task, you can click on the Monster's name as shown in the Task Reminder and its position icon will appear on the map as a yellow, upside-down cone. Run to the cone and you can fight the Monster.
If the task involves requested materials or anything else, you can hit M to pull up the map and see the Force Tab. Below that is a space to enter in the Monster's name. Then click to search. If the map has the Monster you want to want, then in the area below you will see options in red characters. Run to the Monster's location to find its whereabouts.
Of course you are free to select your course of action, so if the Monsters nearest to you appear in need of a beating, you can deliver one as you see fit. Remember to check the monster's Capability and compare it with your own. After you pick a Monster, above its HP Bar and to the right of its name will be a small circle. Click on it and you can compare your own skills to its. There are five components to it, and each color represents a Monster's different potential levels of Power. Red means it is the baddest of the bad, orange is still superlatively mighty, yellow is a force to be reckoned with, green is about par with your own skills, and blue is a pushover. We recommend you select green or blue targets.
When you want to beat up a Monster, you can use the Tab key or the left mouse button to select one and home in on him. At this point you can clearly see the monster's red circle. As soon as you approach the Monster you can rain blows on him.
In addition, the game has many unlocked Movements, and as long as the Monster within striking range you can beat him up without having to home in on him by clicking or pressing Tab.

This year, we at Justis have been celebrating our 30th anniversary, and we would like to share some of the key milestones from our history. These events highlight how we have been at the forefront of innovations in legal technology since our inception, and we continue to break new ground to the present day.
In 1986, a company named Context Legal Systems Limited was founded, which later became Justis Publishing. We gained the first commercial license to disseminate Celex by Eur-Op, and reached an agreement with the ICLR to publish the Weekly Law Reports online.
In 1987, we launched our first service, Justis Online.
In 1989, we launched the first law CD-ROM to be published in the UK. This used the Fulcrum search engine. Context Legal Systems Limited became Context Ltd.
In 1991, we launched the Weekly Law Reports CD-ROM, the first ever CD-ROM of UK case law.
In 1993, we launched a range of specialist EU CD-ROMs, and won our first industry award; the EIA award for European Information Sources for the Justis Single Market CD-ROM.
In 1994, an agreement was reached with the ICLR to publish the Industrial Cases Reports. This involved our first major archive data capture task, and led to the release of the ICR CD-ROM. We also won an open tender from the ICLR to produce a database of the complete archive of the Law Reports, going back to 1965.
In 1995, data capture of the Law Reports begins, alongside the launch of the Justis Family Law Reports. Justis Windows was released.
In 1996, the electronic Law Reports were launched, on time and on budget.
In 1997, we completed the capture of the full archive of the Weekly Law Reports, which were released on CD-ROM.
In 1998, we launched the Times Law Reports on CD-ROM, alongside Tenders on the Web – Context Ltd.'s first internet service.
In 1999, we completed the data capture of the archive of UK statutes back to 1235. The Justis.com platform launched, now known as Justis.
In 2000, we released the Irish Law Reports on CD-ROM. Justis.com wins Lotties "Law Office Technology Newcomer of the Year" award.
In 2001, Masoud Gerami, the first employee of Context Legal Systems Limited in 1986, becomes Managing Director.
In 2003, we launched JustCite, which went on to have a profound effect on how the law was researched.
In 2005, Context Ltd became Justis Publishing.
In 2009, we began a project of ongoing data capture, scanning case law documents in archives found around the country. This undertaking led to the digitisation of content which no-one else has online, which gives Justis the largest collection of UK superior court judgments.
In 2012, we launched Justis Irish Cases, an authoritative series of High Court, Court of Appeal, and Supreme Court Irish cases.
In 2013, we established a base in Northern Ireland, to expand the editorial team who manually mark-up cases.
In 2015, JustisOne was launched, combining the functionality of Justis and JustCite, and incorporating a range of advanced search and analysis tools. Alongside this, we also launched an Offshore Case Law collection, with cases from Jersey Law Reports, the Cayman Island Law Reports, and Justis BVI Cases.
In 2016, we reached an agreement with The Bar Council of Ireland to make the Judgments in the Law Library available to everyone for the first time.
In 2017, we reached agreements with the University of West Indies to exclusively distribute CariLaw on JustisOne, the Incorporated Council of Law Reporting for Ireland to make judgments contained in the Irish Law Reports available as soon as their editorial steps were completed, and The Law Report, making JustisOne the exclusive provider of this New Zealand collection.
We end 2017 with coverage of 26 jurisdictions, more than doubling the coverage we started the year with. We continue to add new features to JustisOne, growing the range of search and analysis tools it offers to provide you with the best legal research platform. We have added 6 new members to the Justis team in recent months. With great things planned for the future, we look forward to growing even further in 2018.

Minister is spreading the message about Danish organic products
Not only Danes like Danish organic products. Danish Ø-labelled organic products are booming on export markets. From 2014 to 2015, exports rose by 15%, and this trend must continue. A new survey has just confirmed that Danes can continue to boast that more people in Denmark buy organic products than anywhere else. However, the world has also found a taste for organic products, and this is good for Danish exports.
Minister for Environment and Food, Esben Lunde Larsen, will be taking part in the international Biofach fair for organic products in Nürnburg to help put focus on Danish organic products.
- I have high ambitions that Danish organic farming and products should grow year by year. Therefore, I'm going to Biofach to support Danish enterprises in their efforts to create continued growth for organic exports, said Esben Lunde Larsen.
Among other things, the Minister will take part in the "World of HoReCa" event at the fair, at which he and other leading members of international interest organisations will put focus on how to promote organic products in restaurants and public-sector kitchens.
In this context, one of the Danish success stories Mr Lunde Larsen will be taking with him is the "Det Økologiske Spisemærke" label.
- We can observe that many countries are showing great interest in the "Det Økologiske Spisemærke" label, because they can see that the label has helped make organic products much more widespread in Danish restaurants and canteens. If we can spread the idea to other countries, we'll be giving organic products a boost so that they appear on restaurant menus in these countries too. And of course I hope that many of these organic products will be bought from here in Denmark, said Esben Lunde Larsen.
The label is a Danish invention that restaurants and other eateries can use to label how much on their menus is based on organic ingredients. The restaurants that almost exclusively use organic products can embellish their walls with a gold label, while the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration issues silver and bronze labels to eateries with a slightly lower percentage of organic ingredients on their menus, although still a considerable proportion.
85% of Danish organic exports go to Europe. In 2015 Denmark exported organic products worth almost DKK 1.7 bn.
In 2015, 39% of Danish organic exports went to Germany.
Danish organic exports to Asia tripled from 2014 to 2015, with exports of just over DKK 250 mill.
Denmark sells a higher percentage of organic food compared with total food sales than any other country in the world. Denmark sells 8.4% organic compared with the second and third highest countries, Switzerland and Luxembourg, with an organic market share of 7.7% and 7.5%, respectively.
Last year, the Danish Government set up Europe's first organic business team. This year, they will present their recommendations for how Denmark can achieve a stronger, market-driven organic sector.
Selected highlights from the Minister's programme
|Opening of Organic Denmark/Bio aus Dänemark - stand 5-115 in hall 5.
|Round-table meeting with selected representatives from enterprises and businesses.
