Expanding workplace safety to include psychological safety
A Psychologically Safe Workplace is one in which every reasonable effort is made to protect the mental health of employees and to prevent mental injury.
The requirement to provide and sustain a psychologically safe working environment is a new and still emerging legal duty whose fuzzy boundaries cause uncertainty and unpredictability for many employers.
But one thing is clear: damage awards and "systemic" remedies for psychological injury are on the increase every year.
The easiest way to think about the obligation to maintain a psychologically safe workplace is to see it as an extension of the existing duty to provide a safe work environment. The extension is from physical safety to psychological safety.
Complying with legal requirements
As an employer what should you do to comply with the legal requirement to provide a psychologically safe workplace?
Certainly, some employers may choose to go beyond the minimum requirements contained in existing legislation. Some "best practice" type approaches can be found in the Leadership/Management section of this website.
This particular resource, however, focuses on steps an employer can take to help meet the minimum requirements for providing a psychologically safe workplace.
Once you have read and reviewed this guideline and the sample policies provided, use the Checklist at the end to see where you might be along the road to psychological safety.

Our Story
In 2014, Kearsarge House owners Elaine and Michael Morgillo began testing interest in opening the York Beach Residence Club, the Short Sands Beach landmark, prior to renovating the 1898 structure. The vision was ambitious: develop an affordable higher-end option for people to enjoy the beauties of York Beach without having to spend half a million. They loved the concept of allowing visitors to be able to spend more than just the summer in York. The vision benefited potential owners, guests, and the community. Next came the work.
The Rendering
In 2015 with the support of the Historical District Commission, Elaine and Michael Morgillo began the process of making their vision become a reality. The goal was to design a beautiful building that would enhance the image of York Beach while maintaining the Southern Maine charm. After the rendering, a formal proposal to rebuild the Kearsarge House was submitted and approved by the city.
Taking Shape
By the end of 2016, York Beach Residence Club's beauty and charm was evident. Prior to opening, all three of the retail spaces were sold including the one restaurant space. People noticing the potential and luxury jumped on the opportunity to become an owner. Eighty percent of all the fractional share condominiums were sold. The Morgillos' goal of changing the tenor of York Beach to more of a year-round community appeared to be coming to fruition.
A Reality
The beginning of 2017 marked the grand opening of the York Beach Residence Club and Luxury Resort. The final design honors the iconic Kearsarge House and enhances the community of York Beach, Maine. Owners and guests are literally just footsteps away from the beach. Reservation inquiries and ownership continues to increase. The York Beach Residence Club will sell its remaining units, and then it will focus on resort reservations and club owner experience. Contact us now to reserve a room or to learn more about ownership.

My pantry is free from Gluten, Dairy, Soya, Corn, Cashews, Almonds, and all the items are Low FODMAP and Low Alkali (unless stated). You can also read more about my food philosophy. The nutritional information is coming back soon.
Fruits are all low in saturated fat, cholesterol and sodium. Fruits are a good source of dietary fibre but they are high in fruit sugars. The fruits I have selected in my pantry are low FODMAP fruit and low alkali or neutral Ph fruits.
Vegetables are low in fat, cholesterol and sodium and are a great source of nutrients.
Grains and pulses
Grains and pulses are the food group to be most careful with, as although these are gluten free. They are not all alkali and some are medium FODMAP.
Nuts and Seeds
In general, nuts can cause problems for your gut, so it is recommended to have only a small portion (a handful) per day. I can not tolerate almonds (which makes most gluten-free recipes a pain to make as they use almonds) or cashews so my recipes will not use these nuts.
Nuts and seeds vary in their alkali levels. Chestnuts, Brazil nuts, Sesame seeds, Pumpkin seeds, and Chia seeds have the best alkaline levels.

Bandipora attack: In a major success today, 4 terrorists were killed by security forces after an attempt to carry out a suicide attack on a camp of the 45th Battalion of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) in Bandipora district of Jammu and Kashmir was foiled. According to reports, the heavily armed terrorists tried to enter the CRPF camp at Sumbal at around 3:30 AM after they opened fire at a sentry post. Security forces retaliated and neutralised the four terrorists, according to agency reports. A search operation has been launched and the area has been cordoned off, according to TV reports.
Here are key takeaways
1) Sub Inspector Yogesh Kumar told news agencies that four terrorists who tried to execute a fidayeen attack on the CRPF camp were killed after they opened fire on a sentry post.
2) The terrorists tried to force their way into the camp of the 45th battalion in Sumbal Bandipora by resorting to heavy firing.

3) Four AK-47 assault rifles, one Underbarrel Grenade Launcher (UBGL) and ammunition were recovered from the slain terrorists. DGP of J&K Police Shesh Paul Vaid said that AK-47s and a huge quantity of ammunition were recovered. He also complimented the CRPF and the state police for their alertness
4) The 45th Batallion of the CRPF was headed by braveheart Chetan Kumar Cheeta who survived nine bullet injuries while fighting terrorists in Bandipora district last year.

5) Home Minister Rajnath Singh had said that violence in Kashmir will not last for long.
6) Jammu and Kashmir DGP SP Vaid said that they were trying to identify the terrorists and ascertain which organisation they belong to.
7) Incidents of cross-border firing along the LoC have seen a significant rise in the last few weeks. On May 23, the Indian Army had released a video of "punitive fire assaults" on Pakistani positions across the Line of Control, inflicting some damage.
8) The Indian Army yesterday had rejected video circulated by Pakistan purportedly showing attacks by its military on some Indian posts along the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir. It had termed the video as false and fabricated one.
9) Army had also trashed the Pakistan military's claim that five Indian soldiers were killed in Tatta Pani sector along the LoC last week when Pakistani troops had retaliated to Indian fire.

Members of the District Team assembled at the House of Lords on 26 April 2017 to congratulate Peju Oluyomi (wearing orange) as a national Rotary "Community Champion of Change" award. The award was presented to Peju by Rt Hon Baron Lord Hague of Richmond in recognition of her work as a palliative care nurse.
Peju has a heart for charity and for the community – in Basildon and abroad. It was her commitment to the elderly both in her fundraising and using her professional care skills at home and overseas that led to her nomination by Rotary in London, District 1130.
As well as working unstintingly for the elderly in Basildon, she has championed a home for under-privileged children in Uganda as well as setting up a free health screening and treatment centre for thousands in Zimbabwe.
She has also been active in improving the infrastructure and facilities for health in Sri Lanka as part of the project partnership.
Peju is 'not yet a Rotarian', but her work sets an example to all Rotarians. She is a most deserving awardee.

Characteristics of Free Enterprise
Division of Labor
This has been the most controversial aspect of capitalism, because it has been so thoroughly misunderstood. Critics of capitalism have contended that profit was the goal of capitalist greed: something to which the workers were rightfully entitled but which the bosses stole; or something extra for the owners above all real costs. One reason profits have gained a bad reputation is the popular misconception that company profit margins are enormous. In fact they are quite…

Whats crazy is, I doubt the films characters were in costume; which might actually be true considering the film was initially intended to be a documentary.

Manchester City made light work of Middlesbrough in the FA Cup, easing past Aitor Karanka's side 2-0 to book their spot in the semi-finals of the competition.
The visitors may have a midweek trip to Monaco on their minds but Pep Guardiola nonetheless picked a strong line-up with Raheem Sterling, John Stones and David Silva all returning in a line-up that also featured Leroy Sane, Kevin De Bruyne and Sergio Aguero.
City stun hosts with fast start
Karanka had risked the wrath of Pep Guardiola before the game insisting that the Spaniard is not the best coach in the world (apparently it's Jose Mourinho in case you're interested) and City started as if desperate to prove the Boro boss wrong.
There were less than three minutes on the clock when the visitors struck through David Silva. Yaya Toure chipped a pass out to Pablo Zabaleta racing down the right. His cross was aimed at Raheem Sterling, who made a mess of it but Silva made no mistake smashing past Brad Guzan.
It was City's quickest goal of the season and with Guardiola's side already being the FA Cup's top scorers this season, things looked ominous for Boro, particularly after Rudy Gestede hobbled off midway through the first half, former City man Alvaro Negredo his replacement.
But the visitors allowed Boro to come back into it, Cristhian Stuani's fierce header saved by Bravo after Zabaleta had slipped their best effort of the first half as they started to worry City at the back who still look defensively suspect at times.
The second half began in much the same way with Silva almost scoring an identical goal to his opener but this one flew over the bar before Guzan managed to deflect an Aguero shot onto the post when City looked almost certain to double their lead.
Aguero finishes off Boro
The chances contined to come, however, until the 67th minute when Aguero made the game safe. Leroy Sane was the creator, racing down the left before crossing for the striker who was on hand to fire home.
There was still time for more chances, John Stones was denied a penalty by referee Mike Dean after he was tripped by Gibson before Stones then had to clear off his own line after Fabio looked set to pull one back.
In truth it was a comfortable afternoon for Guardiola's men who sail serenely into the last four of the competition and can now turn their attentions to the Champions League, and Monaco on Wednesday.
Middlesbrough: Guzan 8, Barragan 5, Bernardo 5 (Fry 6), Gibson 8, Fabio 6, Clayton 6, Leadbitter 5 (Ramirez 6), De Roon 6, Stuani 6, Traore 6, Gestede 6 (Negredo 5).

Cloud-based data sharing is increasing in popularity, but there is also an increasing privacy consciousness. Continued growth in cloud computing will require reconciling these issues. While data encryption can provide some protection, it has been shown that even access patterns to encrypted data can reveal private information (e.g., knowing encrypted data was uploaded by the Centers for Disease Control and later accessed by a particular user suggests that the user is concerned about some disease, even if the specifics are not known.) There is a lack of study and understanding of how to protect data access pattern in practical scenarios, where there are multiple users and cloud servers and the users and server may not trust each other. The first objective of the research project is to deepen the understanding of the challenges in protecting data access patterns as well as the collateral security risks.
Specifically, this project will develop formal models for protecting data access patterns and initial approaches to that protection, laying a solid foundation for developing novel solutions to protect data access patterns and strictly evaluating the security properties of the solutions. The project also plans to deliver security-provable, oblivious, efficient and accountable multi-user access protocols to outsourced data, for the sake of preserving each individual user's access pattern under a selected set of representative adversary models.

Yucky Romance Parts
Connor and his friends Josh and Sam Wanner served as ball boys for a University of Indianapolis basketball game. They were so excited! Thanks to Papa for hooking them up with the gig and Matt Wanner for the pictures.
The boys plopped down at the kitchen table. They munched on after school snacks while I sifted through school folders.
"How was your day?" I asked the group.
Between bites Collin offered, "It was disgusting!"
My interest was piqued. For a child that finds little experiences to be repulsive (and believe me, there have been plenty!), what could elicit such a strong reaction?
I questioned, "Why was it disgusting?"
"Kids were talking about getting married. B* and S* said they will marry. It was SO disgusting!" he moaned.
I could barely contain my giggles before asserting, "Yeah, that does sound disgusting!"
Cooper piped up, "If I ever make a movie, I'm going to leave out all the romance and marrying parts. Nobody likes those parts anyway."
That did it. I had to laugh.
I asked, "What about girls? Do you think they like the romance parts?"
"Only moms," Cooper said.
I tried to commit those comments to my memory, to take a mental snapshot of the moment. I wondered how many years will pass before they no longer find girls gruesome. I'm betting one day we will sit around the same kitchen table and have a very different conversation about girls, romance, and maybe even marriage.
*Names kept anonymous to protect the innocent!

Here are the recipes from the past week's meal plan. All in all, a fairly successful week in meal planning, shopping and cooking! Because we didn't have dinner at home at all on the weekend the husband and I shopped together on Sunday evening for the week. Things got a bit nutty during the week and the husband ended up cooking one meal plus we ditched one of them and ate leftovers instead. This is why it is important to be flexible!
As a reminder, here was the plan:
August 27 – September 2
Friday: Dinner at Mom & Dad's
Saturday: Dinner at my sister & brother-in-law's house (Mexican Fiesta! Ole!)
Sunday: Dinner at a friend's place
Meatless Monday: Lasagna Rolls
Tuesday: Thai Red Curry with Chicken
Wednesday: Steak Lettuce Wraps
Thursday: BBQ Chicken, baked potato and cucumber salad
Recipes after the jump…
OK, first up is Meatless Monday. I made Lasagna Rolls which is a dish we have made a lot over the last couple of years. A friend of mine gave me a binder full of Cooking Light recipes that we used as our bible when I was doing Weight Watchers. These Lasagna Rolls were only 7 points or something like that and are totally filling. I didn't get the husband to rate these as I'm using the rating scale to judge dishes we haven't had before. But they would probably be around a 4/5 on his scale. Always yummy!
Lasagna Rolls with Roasted Red Pepper Sauce
Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 2 rolls)
- 8 uncooked lasagna noodles
- 4 teaspoons olive oil
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 1 (8-ounce) package presliced mushrooms
- 1 (6-ounce) package fresh baby spinach
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
- 1/4 cup minced fresh basil, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
- 1 (7-ounce) bottle roasted red bell peppers, undrained
- 1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- To prepare lasagna, cook noodles according to package directions, omitting salt and fat. Drain and rinse under cold water. Drain.
- Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, mushrooms, spinach, and 3 garlic cloves; sauté 5 minutes or until onion and mushrooms are tender. Remove from heat, and stir in cheeses, 2 tablespoons basil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper.
- To prepare sauce, place vinegar and remaining ingredients in a blender; process until smooth.
- Place cooked noodles on flat surface; spread 1/4 cup cheese mixture over each noodle. Roll up noodles, jelly-roll fashion, starting with short side. Place the rolls, seam sides down, in a shallow 2-quart microwave-safe dish. Pour 1/4 cup sauce over each roll, and cover with heavy-duty plastic wrap. Microwave at high 5 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons basil.

I don't bother with the fresh spinach, since I usually have a package or two of frozen chopped spinach in the freezer. If you go this route, saute the onions, garlic and mushrooms first and then add your thawed, well drained spinach at the end. Also, we found that the sauce tasted better if it's thrown in a saute pan and cooked for a bit while the noodles were cooking. Finally I always put this in the oven at about 350 – 400 degrees for 20 minutes until the sauce is bubbly. Oh and one last thing, throw an extra noodle or two into the boiling water just in case you 1. break one or 2. have extra filling. These turned out really yummy (as usual!)
Red Thai Curry with Chicken
by: Thai Kitchen
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon Thai Red Curry Paste
- 1 can (14 ounces) Coconut Milk
- 1/2 cup chicken stock
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Fish Sauce (or 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and the juice from half a lime)
- 1 pound boneless chicken, beef, pork or duck, cut into bite-size pieces
- 3 cups assorted cut-up vegetables, such as bell peppers, onions, carrots and sugar snap peas
- 2 tablespoons julienne-cut fresh basil
- Cooked Jasmine Rice
- HEAT oil in large skillet on medium heat. Add curry paste; stir fry 1 to 1 1/2 minutes or until fragrant. Add coconut milk and chicken stock; bring to simmer on medium-high heat. Stir in brown sugar and fish sauce until well blended.
- STIR in meat and vegetables; simmer 5 to 7 minutes or until meat is cooked through and vegetables are tender-crisp. Remove from heat. Stir in basil.
- SERVE over cooked Jasmine Rice
Additions / Substitutions / Reviews
Ok, so I have to start off by saying this was SO YUMMY! It is by far the tastiest thing I have EVER cooked in my life. The husband agrees, he gives it a 4.6/5 (he said he would have given it 5/5 but he didn't want to rate something so high so early, just in case I make something even better). Fish sauce sort of scares me so I googled "substitutions for fish sauce" and found out that most people either just leave it out or use a combination of soy sauce and lime juice. I did the latter and it turned out really yummy. We made ours with chicken and rather than simmering it in the sauce I browned it in the skillet first. The veggies in our curry were – red peppers, green peppers, red onion and zucchini. The next time I make this dish (which may very well be next week!) I will double the sauce because it was SO GOOD. I highly recommend you try this out!
Steak Lettuce Wraps
<ahem, no picture for this because we dove in and ate and I forgot again. Bad Michelle. I'm going to have to start leaving the camera downstairs by the kitchen table! Next week I'll be better..>
- 2 medium sized steaks cut into strips
- 2 cups of carrots, peppers, onions and whatever other veggies you want, cut into strips
- bean sprouts
- cripsy Asian noodles
- whole peanuts, toasted in a dry pan or roasted in the oven (careful – they burn quickly!)
- head of lettuce (bibb works great but head lettuce works well too and is much less expensive. We've even done this with hearts of romaine and made lettuce "boats")
- hoisin sauce
- teryaki sauce
- Heat skillet and add a touch of oil. Fry steak strips with a squirt of teryaki and hoisin sauce until cooked through and remove from pan.
- Add a touch more oil if necessary and stir fry vegetables until cooked but still crunchy.
- Toss in cooked steak and any juices. Throw bean sprouts on top and toss in the peanuts. Stir to combine, taste to see if it needs more hoisin or teryaki (sometimes we add a bit of soy). Empty pan into a big serving bowl.
- Separate the lettuce leaves into whole pieces (as best you can, it takes some practice, but if you get smaller pieces, don't worry about it).
- To eat – take a lettuce leaf, put a little dab of hoisin or teryaki sauce in the bottom, add a scoop of the steak and veggie mixture and top with some crispy noodles. Roll it up as best you can and shove it in your mouth!
Additions / Substitutions / Review
No additions or substitutions to report here as it is our own recipe. I would say that these are just as yummy the next day (and I'm not a leftovers girl!). We ended up tossing a couple of the crispy noodles in with the sauce and veggies so they got soft which is equally as yummy. This is a standby in our house, so it gets another 4/5. Give them a try! These are also yummy with chicken or just veggies.
Thursday – we ended up having lots of leftovers from the lettuce wraps that we decided not to cook Thursday's meal, so BBQ chicken with potatoes and cucumber salad has been moved to next week, again. But this is why it's important to be flexible with your meal plan! The chicken is kept in the freezer until we need it, so I don't have to worry about it going bad. Plus the cucumber for the salad and the potatoes for the baked potatoes will last a few more days for us to use them up next week. No sweat off my back and I got to take a night off cooking (well, actually two nights since the husband cooked the lettuce wraps!)
I think we are getting in more of a rhythm with this meal planning and cooking. Onwards to next week! Watch out for the meal plan this afternoon.

Though, various industries are still reliant on processes that generate wastewaters. Gas manifold are the automatic changeover regulator system that gives precise, uninterrupted gas flow. There are many companies that manufacture numerous gas manifold boxes to meet the customer specification. While manufacturing, the companies also take better care to eradicate dead legs and guarantee ultra pure gas delivery with the gas manifold boxes.

After over 3 years living in Falls Church, we have finally found "our" Italian restaurant. I'm a firm believer that when you move and settle down there are a few things you make sure you have. First thing being a grocery store. Second a place with a good wine selection, now that's just obvious. Lastly, a good Italian restaurant. Growing up we had the Pines of Rome in Bethesda (I'm devastated it is closing within the year). It was the perfect spot to go for birthdays (many of my birthdays were spent there) or after a movie, or before the homecoming dance or just out with friends for white pizza and a carafe of red Pines wine.
Thanks to my husband working in a business where he meets people from all walks of life with all sorts of different jobs, we were able to find "our" Italian spot. My husband came home and had me look up this Italian restaurant in Falls Church called Argia's. I looked up the restaurant, realized it literally is a hop skip and a jump away. The menu checked out – they had amazing fresh pasta, wine and cannolis. My husband suggested we go for happy hour and then dinner. I'm not one to turn that type of evening down.
Fast forward to date night. I have to admit, I'm like my father-in-law. I look up the menu before we go to a restaurant and pick what I will order. I guess we like to be prepared! Argia's is located next to the Beach Shack and State Theater. We decided to sit at the bar. The bartender was great: bubbly and generally seemed happy. No one likes a grumpy bartender.
I order the house Chardonnay. Lee ordered a Whisky sour. The house chard was good! I use the exclamation because most happy hours that feature "house" wines are really not that great. These were not crummy. Plus, they had olives at the bar and gosh I'm a sucker for olives! We ordered the mussels. Lee read they were phenomenal…. They were. We also got the calamari. I wanted to drink the marinara sauce it was that good. So far so good and I couldn't wait for dinner
Before we ordered, we met the chef. Previous chef at Ristorante Filomena in Georgetown. He told me his gnocchi recipe and I haven't forgotten. We ordered our dinner: Lee ordered the Bolognese, I ordered the Gnocchi con vodka with prosciutto. I paired mine with a great Montelpulciano.
I have one thing to say: the sauce I could have just sipped, the pasta was fluffy and so satisfying. Lee's bolgenese was flavorful and filling.
We left clean plates. We found our spot. Good wine, affordable tasty food and wonderful owners. The atmosphere is pleasant, the location perfect, the food – I'm still drooling over it – and the wines were wonderful. I honestly want to try everything on their menu. It's that good.
Falls Church isn't that far away and this place; Argia's really is worth the visit. You'll leave completely full and satisfied.
*If you have tickets for a show at the State Theater you get 10 % off.
* They're holding a wine dinner soon
* They're on Facebook
Go and enjoy what Argia's has to offer, you won't regret it.
Oh, and try the cannolis!

On 13.9.11 by KieronMoore in ≤30Mins, 30 Minutes or Less, Film, Jesse Eisenberg, Ruben Fleischer No comments
30 Minutes or Less, Ruben Fleischer's follow-up to his 2009 zom-com Zombieland, reunites the American director with star Jesse Eisenberg.
ZuckerEisenberg plays Nick, a lazy pizza delivery boy unhappy with his job who often struggles to meet the company promise of pizza delivery in 30 minutes or less (fitting with the theme of speed, let's say ≤30Mins). Unsurprisingly, his situation only worsens when Nick finds himself kidnapped, wakes up with a bomb strapped to his chest and is given ten hours to rob a bank before it detonates.
Centreing on the comedic rapport between not one, but two double acts - Nick and his friend Chet (Aziz Ansari) and dim criminals (diminals?) Dwayne and Travis (Danny McBride and Nick Swardson), the film doesn't get off to a fantastic start. The majority of the first act is made up of juvenile humour - you know the sort, people arguing over whose sister they've slept with, crude euphemisms for penises, et cetera - and fails to be funny. However, once the bomb vest is strapped on and the plot starts to move, ≤30Mins becomes punctuated by many actually very hilarious moments. The jokes come fast and many hit the right chords, obviously aimed at the typical 21st century nerd - topics for humour include the internet, 3D films, a very clever use of a laser pen and even a joke about "that's what she said" 'jokes'. Combining this with the fast pace of the direction, Fleischer clearly knows his youthful target audience and it pays off, giving the film a contemporary yet intelligent and unpatronising style.
The cast are, in general, one of the major downsides of ≤30Mins. The majority of the cast, particularly Ansari and McBride, are more than a bit wooden in terms of conveying any form of realistic emotional character. I also don't like Ansari's shirt. On the other hand, there were never going to be any Academy Awards for Best Actor going to this kind of light-hearted comedy and this is not a major problem if the jokes are to your tastes. In contrast to his co-stars, however, Eisenberg shines in his first screen role since getting nominated for that aforementioned Oscar with The Social Network. Hollywood's go-to guy for young nerds shows that he can pull off the role of a comic hero effectively, giving Nick the right mix of laziness and energy, cleverness and pitiability, and a little bit of comedic pathos to boot.
≤30Mins is an enjoyably energetic little comedy that doesn't push any boundaries and is far from the greatest comedy you'll ever see, but, especially if modern geek culture is your kind of thing, is worth watching for the sporadic laugh out loud, roll on floor laughing, laughing your fucking arse off moments. I only literally carried out the first of those three actions, but that's quite funny enough.

Liquidation is the process by which any company is brought to an end and the assets and property of the company are realised and re-distributed.
Compulsary Liquidation
If a Company is insolvent and cannot pay it's debts as they fall due it can be wound up by the Courts. Any creditor with a debt in excess of £750 can
Issue a Winding up Petition. If a Winding up Order is made the Court may appoint an Official Receiver or one or more Liquidators.
Members Voluntary Liquidation
A Members Voluntary Liquidation is a legal process whereby a solvent company can cease trading.
For the company to qualify it must be solvent i.e. it's assets are greater than its liabilities and it is able to pay it's creditors as they fall due, as well as the costs of the liquidation itself.
It can be a tax efficient way of realising and distributing the assets of the company.
From March 2012, changes in legislation mean that under an MVL, shareholders funds can be taxed by capital gains tax on distribution over £25,000.00 rather than income tax. Meaning, less tax is paid by the Shareholders.
The Director/s must make a statutory declaration of solvency, that the company can pay all its liabilities in full plus statutory interest and the cost of winding up the company. This must be completed within 12 months of the declaration of solvency.
An MVL may be used for example when the owners wish to retire and have assets and property within the company, which they want to transfer into their personal estate.
Company Voluntary Liquidation
Trading whilst insolvent can result in the Directors becoming personally liable for a company's debts. That is, if the company's financial position is made worse by the Directors continuing to trade instead of putting the company immediately into liquidation.
In this situation the onus is on the Director to take appropriate advice to mitigate losses to unsecured creditors.
If you are considering ceasing to trade we can advise you through the stages of the liquidation processes.
* Concerned about what happens to the companies debts.
* Or you may have concerns over personal guarantees the directors may have given.
We can help and our initial consultation is free of cost, so you can find out the options open to you.
It may still be possible to rescue your business (see CVA) or there may be a way to cease any further losses and make a fresh start.

22nd September 2017, 22:16 | super8
Hull made light work of leaders Castleford Tigers to book their place in the Betfred Super League play-offs and effectively end Wigan Warriors' title defence.
Lee Radford's team needed to beat the Tigers in their final Super 8s fixture to confirm their top-four spot and they did so in style with a thumping 48-16 victory.
Hull will travel to Leeds Rhinos for next Friday's second semi-final, while Castleford will host St Helens 24 hours earlier unless champions Wigan defeat Wakefield Trinity by a 90-point margin on Saturday.
CONFIRMED@leedsrhinos host @hullfcofficial next Friday night in second @Betfred Super League semi-final pic.twitter.com/KxTd6MQk5t— Betfred Super League (@SuperLeague) September 22, 2017
Albert Kelly and Jake Connor scored back-to-back early tries after Castleford failed to deal with high kicks and it was virtually job done for Hull when Danny Houghton went over in similar fashion.
Debutant Tuoyo Egodo got the Tigers on the board but Jamie Shaul's scintillating long-range try underlined Hull's title credentials before Connor made it 28-6 at the break.
Egodo was celebrating a hat-trick in the early stages of the second half after quick-fire tries only for Connor to complete his treble to end any hopes of a Castleford comeback.
The Tigers will take on Saints – the only other side to beat them at the Mend-A-Hose Jungle in 2017 – on the back of a heavy defeat after Carlos Tuimavave and Shaul completed the scoring.
120-0 tomorrow #believe— Joe Burgess (@JoeBurgess1) September 22, 2017

The 2017 BMW 5 Series is a joy, not simply because of its stunning design and standard technology features, but also because it's easily tailored to your specific needs. The vehicle, like any BMW in the 2017 lineup, offers incredible driving dynamics, a luxurious interior, and plenty of technology features to choose from and is a favorite for Manhattan, Queens, and Bronx drivers.
Driving Dynamics Improvements Due to the Redesign
The new BMW 5 Series has the CLAR platform that's featured in the 2017 BMW 7 Series, which means it's going to be lighter than ever before. With high-strength steel, carbon fiber, and aluminum on the body panels and chassis, the overall weight is decreased and handling improved.
The BMW 5 Series also will feature double-wishbone front suspension and the five-arm rear axle, both of which have been redesigned for the 5 Series.
BMW 5 Series Trim Levels
An important part of choosing a model from the 5 Series is selecting the right trim level for you. Like many vehicle lines, the 5 Series offers several trims that you can choose. This four-door luxury sedan provides five different trim levels, which include the BMW 530i, the 530e hybrid, the BMW 540i and the 550i. In addition to providing varying features, each 5 Series trim level is available with all-wheel drive. A 5 Series trim with all-wheel-drive is indicated with the 'xDrive' signature.
BMW 5 Series Interior Options
Perhaps the most important part of picking a luxury vehicle from the 5 Series is getting the comfortable and useful interior that you deserve. The interior of this year's 5 Series has been redesigned to offer a better driving experience in every area. Optional in the 5 Series are multi-contour seats that come equipped with touch sensitive adjustment controls.
In addition, backseat legroom has been improved by almost an inch, ensuring that your passengers are always comfortable when riding in your 5 Series model. There is also expanded cargo space totaling 18.7 cubic feet so that you can take all your most important items with you. Other standard features that you'll have access to with the 5 Series include a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, vinyl upholstery and dual-zone automatic climate control.
Optional features include ventilated and massaging seats, a sport leather steering wheel and a rear-wheel steering system.
Engine Options Abound in the All-New 5 Series
The all-new 5 series features BMW's latest TwinPower Turbo Technology. The 530i features the new "B48" 4 cylinder, turbo-charged engine producing 248hp. The plug-in hybrid 530e iPeformance combines a 180hp 4-cylinder engine with a 111hp eDrive electric motor and can provide up to 20miles of all-electric range when fully charged. The 540i designation returns with the new "B58" 6-cylinder turbo-charged engine, producing 335hp. New for 2017 is the first-ever M550i, which features the tuned M Performance 4.4L TwinPower turbo-charged V8 and produces 456hp.
New Features for the Newly Redesigned 5 Series
For a luxury vehicle line to be worth your consideration, it must provide advanced technology features that make for a unique automotive experience. Fortunately, the BMW 5 Series is packed with standard technology features that you won't be able to resist using.
If you're a music lover like many New Yorkers, you're really going to enjoy the 205-watt sound system that provides twelve speakers and a CD player. There are also options for connecting your personal music devices such as a USB port and an auxiliary audio jack. The best piece of technology you'll have access to with the 5 Series is the iDrive infotainment system, which features a 10.2-inch touchscreen that can be controlled with your voice, from your steering wheel and even gestures.
There are also several optional technology features that you can choose to increase the utility of the 5 Series. These features include either a Harman Kardon or Bowers & Wilkins audio system, and rear seat entertainment options like a DVD player or 10.2-inch viewing screens.
The vehicle will also have a new range of advanced safety technology features as well as driver assistance systems, including a redesigned Automatic Cruise Control system with a stop-and-go function that will likely be a major upgrade from the previous system.

Im just wondering how many people have gained weight from Gabapentin?

- gabapentin, weight
Responses (3)
How much did you gain? I gained 45 lbs over 2 years. Started on 600, now on 1200mg. Cant tolerate much for my back and sciatic pain and off pain meds now for 8 months. I hate being fat and it hurts my back. How much have people gained and has anyone been able to lose it while still being on this stuff? Was anyone able to lose weight after they stopped the gabapentin and how long did it take. I especially want to hear from menopausal women!
I have too, but it's worth it for what I'm taking it for.
I hope you do well on Gabapentin - it is a drug used for many things (besides
Let us know how you are doing and I hope that whatever you are taking it for
helps to curb your pain or whatever you are having a problem with.
Good luck and God bless you.
Yes I take it for pain and to heal the pain receptors on my nerves after pain meds. I still have some nasty back injuries and sciatica to deal with. I dont think gaining weight helps the disc injuries and certainly not my self esteem. How much did you gain... did you lose it? Did anyone lose weight after this drug?
I have only been on Gabapentin for about 5 months. I gained 10 - 12 pounds,
but, as I said, it's worth the weight gain. I don't think I'm gaining any more
pounds at this point. If the drug is working for you, then don't you worry your
head about weight gain.
Good luck.
45 lbs. I cant wear my clothes. Trying everything to lose it while still being on the gabapentin. Not too successful yet. The weight adds to the pain so I dont know how worth it it is. I want to heal my nerves but not suffer so much. Has anyone been able to lose weight on this stuff... or going off it? I feel like the blob!
Perhaps your doctor (or a new doctor) would have a better choice than Gabapentin. I understand that the weight gain is a real problem, and cannot
be good for your body and self-esteem.
Call doc on Monday and say you want a different medication because of the
weight gain and it is hurting your other injuries, having gained all that weight.
There has to be something out there that will give you release and no
weight gain.
May I suggest while you are waiting to see your doctor that you go on the
Internet and search for - Medication for pain and no weight gain.
It might work for you, I don't know, but I care that you have put on so much
weight and are not feeling up to par.
Good luck to you and hope something turns up for you and you can lose
that weight that is having a terrible effect on you.
God bless,
Ive tried every single non narcotic. Cant tolerate any of them, except this one. Saw the doc today and he gave me some Theramine (amino acids for pain) to try. I have too much pain to stop the GP and believe me, have researched everything. I just want to control my pain and get rid of this weight at the same time and wondering if anyone has. The doctors dont know anything. They tell you people dont gain weight on Gabapentin. Lol. They should try every thing before giving it to people!
And they should read the information packet on Gabapentin.
Much of the medical community are dumb wads.
Good luck, dear.

Beauty Tip 12. Hair to compliment your face
Some women are lucky enough to suit every hair style that they try.
But for most of us, only a handful of styles work well, due to our individual face shape, skin tone and age.
There are general guidelines as to which women suit which styles.
For example, square faced ladies are recommended to choose a soft, medium to long style to counteract their strong facial lines.
Round faced women, on the other hand, are better suited to styles with high, narrow lines.
However, we must not forget that everybody is different and that guidelines are meant to be broken.
The important thing is to try different styles.
Look in the mirror. Do you look good? Do you feel good?
If the answers to both these questions is yes, then you're good to go.

Johns Hopkins researchers report that a molecular diagnostic test accurately distinguishes among the three most common causes of vaginitis.
In an article published in Obstetrics & Gynecology, the investigators said that the new assay — based on the presence of the genetic footprints of bacteria, yeast and the sexually transmitted protozoa trichomonas — was as accurate as and more objective than traditional laboratory tests.
'Overall, the disease prevalence identified by the traditional and the new molecular methods were similar,' according to Charlotte Gaydos, Professor of Medicine and Director of the Johns Hopkins Centre for the Development of Point of Care Tests for Sexually Transmitted Diseases at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
The comparative data, she added, earned US Food and Drug Administration market authorisation for use by diagnostic laboratories. The assay is licensed to BD Diagnostics, which will market it under the BD MAX™ Vaginal Panel.
'Diagnostic tests traditionally used to distinguish among the causes of vaginitis are archaic, quite subjective and time-intensive, plus they require extensive training for those reading the results,' Gaydos noted.
Labs must grow cultures, conduct microscopic studies of cells for infection and even smell samples in what is commonly known as the 'whiff' test to help differentiate among possible causes and select the proper treatment.
'The new test is objective. Either the DNA of the causative agent is there or not; no grey area,' said Gaydos.
The new molecular test first uses a real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to amplify large amounts of specific DNA sequences from the three most common causes of vaginitis from patient samples, then reads either a positive or a negative result based on whether enough DNA is present to indicate infection.

Ladybird GTX 285 Reviewscr4wl -
» Discuss this article (11)
In order to find out how the Ladybird GTX 285 performs, I'll put it through OCC's benchmarking suite. This consists of both game and synthetic benchmarks, which will both stress the card and show its true performance. The games used are current games, that most gamers would at some point play. All comparison cards were tested at their stock settings without any changes. The exception to this is the NVIDIA cards, as they had PhysX disabled for the Vantage benchmark. The Ladybird GTX 285 will be tested at both its stock and overclocked settings.
- Processor: Intel Core I7 920 150x20
- Motherboard: MSI X58 Platinum
- Memory: Mushkin HP3 12800 7-7-7-20
- Video Card: Ladybird GTX 285
- Power Supply: Antec 1000W
- Hard Drive: 750GB Seagate Barracuda 7200.11
- OS: Windows Vista Ultimate Edition SP1 64-bit
- Case: Thermaltake Xaser VI
Comparison Video Cards:
- Sapphire HD 5970 OC
- PowerColor Radeon HD 5970 LCS
- Sapphire HD 5870
- Sapphire HD4870x2
- Asus GTX 260 Matrix
- Sapphire HD 4890 Vapor-X 1GB
Overclocked Settings:
- Ladybird GTX 285 786MHz/1465MHz/1728MHz
Overclocking the Ladybird GTX 285 was extraordinarily unproblematic. There wasn't any overclocking software included with the card, so I used MSI's Afterburner to push the card to its limits. I started off by increasing the core clock by 5MHz and running the 3DMark Vantage GPU test to insure stability. I then did the same for the shader and memory clocks, respectively. I didn't hit any instability until the shader clock hit 1730MHz. I then decreased the shader clock by an increment of 1MHz until stability had been restored. I then did the same for the core clock and the memory clock until their maximum speeds had been reached. Once this had been done, I proceeded to run through each of OCC's benchmarks to ensure full stability. As it turns out, the core clock still needed to be decreased a few MHz. The end result was a shader clock of 1728MHz, a memory clock of 1465MHz, and a core clock of 786MHz.

From SouthCN & China Daily:
《老男孩》["Old Boy"] film becomes popular online, spurs passionate discussion about dreams
China News Service, Hefei, November 9th (Reporter: Cheng Zhanpeng) – an internet film that reflects upon one's youth and dreams called 《老男孩》[Lao Nan Hai, "Old Boy"] has been rapidly spreading on the internet, moving people of all ages, with many people leaving shedding tears over their youth, commending it as a rare example of a fine domestically-produced piece of work. The film has also spurred passionate discussion amongst netizens about one's dreams.
"Old Boy" tells about two ordinary men pursuing their dreams, using humorous scenes to make viewers think of their own dreams. They form a band to participate in the "Happy Boys" competition, because one song lets them return to their youth, return to the past. This touching "Old Boy" theme song at the same time moves the entire audience.
Netizen "红", after watching, said to this reporter, "As time goes by, we can only use our memories to pay homage to our youth, and maybe that's what makes this short film so moving. Memories of our youth gradually drift away during our daily lives, as people must toil for the basic necessities of life. Occasionally flipping open the memory book, I believe every person more or less will sigh and feel regrets.
There are also netizens who have expressed that everyone's [lives] are difficult, that reality has the ability to make you lower your high-spirited head, make the little dreams in your heart run aground, and make daily necessities into your "big dream". However, when youth has already withered, as long as you are alive, your dreams still have an opportunity to sprout [be realized]. When no one wishes you luck, you yourself can also cheer yourself on.
Since it went online, "Old Boy" has already been viewed over 7.1 million times. On the mainland's famous movie review website Douban, this film's rather has reached 9.1. Well-known screenwriter Ning Caishen has praised it as "a song dedicated to the post-70s generation."
This film may be a little difficult for to understand if you have very different life experiences but many Chinese men have said this film made them cry. The English subtitles have many mistakes but it should still be understandable. At this time (of translating), the film has been viewed nearly 41 million times on Youku:
On YouTube (it is split into multiple parts):
As you can see from the Chevrolet advertisements, this is part of the same Youku and Chevrolet series of videos that included "Ms. Puff's Goldfish Bowl".
Comments from KDS:
I think the Billie Jean song in [the film] was really good.
Definitely tear gas.
Only limited to post-80s generation men.
Women are 99% immune.
Women are 100% immune, unless they were that school beauty.
Will resonate with all of the losers/failures in life.
I didn't have the least bit feeling after watching it, even in the end, I only wanted to laugh.
So many post-80s generation memories appeared in this [movie].
[The film's] method of expression/portrayal is deserving of acknowledgment
Seeing the part where the news of MJ's death was being broadcast, I definitely felt very sad.
However, with regards to the sympathy towards "Losers" projected in the film,
I cannot agree with it. Although every person cannot choose their background,
one is still the only person responsible for one's own happiness and improvement in life.
This no one can escape. Avoiding/evading or putting one's hopes on other people or other things to
change one's life is something that cannot possibly succeed.
且一个人,一个男人,拥有一颗强大的内心才是他最大的财富">In fact, for an individual, for a man, his greatest wealth is actually to have a strong/brave heart.
A very good film, capable of evoking memories for an entire generation!
Actually, I feel like this film is really just an extremely long MV [music video]…the story at the beginning is just a lead up to the theme/main song, though the song is pretty good.
What is moving is not the film itself, but rather the memories of us post-80s generation members. Those who wee not moved probably had childhoods like this guy, and have nothing to remember.
The song at the end really added a lot of points [made the film better]. The stuff before it, honestly, was a little dull. More or less everyone has some dreams from their youth that they did not achieve, and films like this can very easily make people remember those things, so it is particularly sad/moving.
But to tell the truth, how many people are able to continue chasing their old dreams? In the end, isn't it all abandoned? For those who truly continue pursuing their dreams, their dreams will eventually be achieved.
So dreams are even more powerful than drugs. At most, drugs will only kill you, but dreams can be a life worse than death.
Floats/flutters by without a single feeling…
I too didn't feel there was anything particularly moving [about the film]…apart from the props and the music making me reminisce a little, the film's entire style was too bangzi.
When the song at the end began, I can't explain it but I started crying.
Maybe a lot of TF believe the film only relates the youth and memories of men, but women were young once too.
The youth of the post-80s generation has already been lost, and now all that is left in the lives of the post-80s generation is cruel reality.
Yeah, I just finished watching it today, and my tears brimmed at the edge of my eyes, with the only reason I didn't break down was because I kept telling myself that I am a man, a 30-year-old man, and I cannot allow my dreams to truly become tears and thus lost~~
The tears are one's own youth, one that is gone forever.
"Take it darling!" Personals @ chinaSMACK.

BBC One should restore the tradition of playing the national anthem at the end of the day's programming in honour of Brexit, a Conservative MP has said.
Andrew Rosindell has tabled a motion calling for the anthem to be played before the channel's programming switches over to BBC News 24 late at night.
The MP for Romford called for the BBC to be "unashamedly British" and celebrate Brexit with a statement that "Britain is back".
BBC One used to play the national anthem every evening at the end the day's programming, but abandoned the tradition in 1997.
Speaking to the Telegraph, Mr Rosindell said: "The British Broadcasting Corporation should be unashamedly British and playing our British National Anthem once a day on BBC One is not much to ask.
"They used to do it and it's time it was restored, to send out a message that Britain is back, following Brexit in tribute to Her Majesty in this, her 90th year!"
The Conservative MP has made a name for himself campaigning on patriotic causes.
Last year, he called for special fast channels at UK airports for citizens of other countries that have Queen Elizabeth II as head of state, such as Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
"It is a travesty that citizens from Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Jamaica, all of Her Majesty's Realms have to queue up in the foreign nationals channel at London Heathrow airport, while citizens from European Union countries that have never had any historical connection to the Crown or the United Kingdom, are allowed to enter alongside British citizens by virtue of their EU membership," Mr Rosindell said.
The member of Parliament has also been vocal on the importance of trade and cooperation with the Commonwealth — the global group of 52 nations that predominantly have a common history of British settlement or rule — and has been instrumental in getting the flags of those nations regularly flown on the flagpoles around Parliament Square.

- Wedding: March 2013 - Callanwolde Fine Arts Center
A good friend of my husband's from college gave birth last weekend to their second son. We were lucky enough to be in town when their first son was born, so we got to meet him and dropped him off some cute GT onsies when he was a few days old.
I want to send them a card and a gift for the birth of their new son, but I'm not sure what to send. I'm guessing they don't need more clothes since they can use hand-me-downs, so I'm leaning towards a gift card (as impersonal as that is) and a sheet of stickers for the older son so he doesn't feel left out.
Should I send a generic Visa giftcard or a store specific card (which one)?

PARIS – An avalanche has struck a school group in the French Alps, and a mountain rescue squad has launched a search and rescue operation.
France's National Gendarmerie says the search and rescue operation was launched in the Deux Alpes region after the avalanche Wednesday afternoon.
Citing local police, the regional Dauphine Libere newspaper is reporting that four of the students were found in cardiac arrest and the teacher was unconscious. Venosc Mayor Pierre Balme told the paper the avalanche occurred on a closed ski run.

The story I'm using for this exercise is about Gators' basketball recruit Walter Pitchford by Kevin Brockway of The Gainesville Sun.
The story is being told from Pitchford's point-of-view as it was his visit to Florida on Feb. 12, that sealed the deal for him to commit to Billy Donovan's team. The first three grafs are all attributed to Pitchford so it is easy to see where the Brockway's information is coming from. But I would have liked to have seen phrases like "he" or "the 6-foot-10 forward" more in there as Pitchford's name was in 18 of 19 paragraphs in this story.
Brockway only uses one other source in this story, ESPN recruiting analyst Dave Telep. It's a strong and sufficient source because Telep answers the questions readers have on Pitchford: What type of player is he going to be like at Florida? Telep is an expert in his field but Pitchford is a two- to three-star athlete out of a possible five stars, meaning that Telep's studying on Pitchford is very generalized. Usually analysts don't give that much attention to such athletes and Telep's quote in the story shows that.
The story as a whole could use a little more substance, in particular, a quote from Billy Donovan. As a reader, I want to know what Donovan sees in Pitchford that makes him an asset to the Gators basketball team, even though he is prospected to be a two- to three-star athlete. Even a quote from an assistant coach would suffice as well. Besides that, the story holds up as a great intro piece to Florida fans. It lets readers know why he chose Florida, and what he'll be doing for the team once the seniors move on in their careers. Brockway supports Telep's assertion of Pitchford as a "rotation guy" with the star rating from Rivals.com. Besides a Florida coach's input, this story was put together well.
