The Gujarat government has sought the help of a Central wildlife team in probing the deaths of 11 Asiatic lions in the Gir forest. The deaths of the big cats have left the Vijay Rupani government red-faced.
The Gujarat has been resisting the Supreme Court's order to shift some of the Gir lions to the Kuno Palpur reserve forest in Madhya Pradesh, and the recent deaths of 11 lions is set to weaken the state's argument that the lions are safe here.
11 lions found dead
Between September 11 and 19, carcasses of 11 lions, including cubs, were found in the forest. Nine of those were recovered from Dalkhaniya range while two were from the Jashadhar range of the Gir Forest.
A day after the carcasses were recovered, Gujarat forest minister Ganpat Vasava categorically stated that only three of the 11 lions were found dead due to infighting. The remaining nine died due to infection in lungs and liver. Rajiv Gupta, additional chief secretary, forests said, "nine lions died due to infighting and postmortem reports of two are awaited," India Today reported.
"It was not even infighting for area, but territory. While lions within the stable pride were getting old and weak, the younger lions from another territory killed cubs and forced the older lions and lionesses into hiding. In hiding, they might have starved. But there was no case of contamination," said state forest minister Ganpat Vasava. He further said, "These deaths were not due to poaching or drinking any contaminated water," Hindustan Times reported.
Additional chief secretary Rajiv Gupta further said that viscera samples of the 11 lions' carcasses had been sent to Pune National Institute of Virology (NIV) to find out the exact cause of death.
Central team to probe deaths
A Central team comprising wildlife experts and officials from the National Tiger Conservation Authority (NCTA) and the Wildlife Institute of India (WII), reached Ahmedabad on Sunday. The team left for Gir forest to conduct an on-the-spot investigation, including assessing the autopsy and viscera reports of the dead lions.
"After analysing the reports from NIV, we will devise a long-term strategy to save lions" Gupta said, adding that the Central team had concluded that the deaths were not due to "unnatural" causes, such as intentional poisoning by humans. Gupta told reporters that the NTCA-WII team will remain in Gujarat for a few days so as to conduct a thorough probe of the case.
"Each team has a forester, two beat guards and one tracker. Veterinary doctors will assist these teams in identifying and rescuing sick lions and treat them at our rescue centres. We have also planned to vaccinate cattle near Gir area" Gupta said, PTI reported.
What have environmentalists said
Wildlife lovers and environmentalists are sceptical that so many deaths can occur in such a short time due to territorial infighting. Environment expert Mahesh Pandya told the Statesman that the recent deaths will certainly weaken Gujarat's petition in Supreme Court, claiming that the lions are safe here.
Pandya alleged that the lions in Gir are becoming endangered due to the government's inaction over illegal mining and encroachments. In giving licenses for resorts near sanctuary areas, the government seems to be disturbing the lions' natural habitat.
Do the lions need a new home?
The death of 11 lions in such a short span has raised concerns over non-execution of the 2013 Supreme Court order concerning translocation of the lions to protect them from possible extinction in case of spread of an epidemic.
In addition, the Gir Forest is unable to sustain the steadily increasing lion population. The informal lion habitat area has doubled – from 10,000 sq km in 2010 to 20,000 sq km in 2015. During the same period, approximately 1,500 villages in eight districts of Saurashtra region are now located within the lion habitat.
A continuous growth in lion population is likely to result in instances of man-animal conflict. The strategies that have been effective till date could prove unsuccessful as an increasing number of villages become part of the informal lion habitat.

How to make your own snow globe
Snow globes are magical, nostalgic, and fun… and they're super easy to make yourself at home! Create a Winter Wonderland in a jar with this simple DIY project idea; perfect for a Christmassy crafternoon with the kids. These adorable festive ornaments only require a few materials and make great gifts too. Create a snowy tree scene or feature your favourite characters or animals. Here's how to make your own homemade snow globe…
Here's what you'll need…
An empty glass jar
A Christmas figurine
Water-resistant glue
Distilled water
Here's what to do…
1. Clean out your empty jam jar. (Baby-food and olive jars also work well – just make sure its a suitable size for your figurine!).
2. Glue your Christmas figurine(s) to the inside of the jam jar lid. (Keeping everything as centred as possible).
3. Cover the bottom of the jar with glitter. (Approx 3 tsp for a jam jar).
4. Fill up your jar to almost the top with distilled water. (You'll need some room in the jar for your figurine).
5. Add a dash of glycerine (to slow the glitter down in the water).
6. Close the jar – tightly! (You can also add some glue around the lid before screwing on to make it extra secure).
7. And finally….. Let it snow!
Display your finished snow globe or give it as a Christmas gift. You can also experiment with using different coloured glitters, different size jars, painted the lid, or decorating the jar with ribbon. Here's a few of our favourite inspirational ideas from Pinterest…
For more Christmassy creative ideas, check out our Pinterest page.
Let us know how you get on with your Christmas crafts; post your comments and photos below!

I want to know HOW can I make a character for my snowglobe if I have NO snow figurine? Can you plaese leave a reply really soon?↓
Hi Destiny! Thanks for commenting. I have always used figurines which I've had in my home or picked up from a charity shop - I have not attemped to make my own. However, I've read online that you could use Plasticine or Sculpey Clay to mould a figurine, or you could even try using a laminated photo or picture in your snow globe, instead of a figurine. There are some tutorials on Pinterest for this. I hope this helps. Best wishes, Jo at Braintree. x↓

A report on a CGE one day workshop, From the Local to the Global, organised in partnership with Lourdes Youth and Community Services, and held in Belfast on 9 March 2012.
This short document is one of the outcomes of a one day workshop organised by the Centre for Global Education on 23 September 2015 titled 'Development Education, Activism and Social Change'. The workshop aimed to support reflection and debate on how development educators engage the public on international development issues (a full report is here). The action outcome is regularly cited by governments, non-governmental organisations and inter-governmental bodies as a core component of their education activities. They collectively suggest that at the very heart of development education practice is the idea of combining reflection and action toward positive social change.

Well Im going through some configuration changes and just got my SBR paperwork back a few weeks ago. My original intent was to do a 12.5" precision/SBR rifle all in one do everything rifle. In addition I was going to have a KISS setup to keep in the car at all times. I have been talking in alot of threads and they got me thinking if a 12.5" precision rig was smart or not. I like to shoot a wide variety of ammo so I really should have a plinker/fun gun and a bench/hunting gun. So this is what Im currently at now. Im thinking a 14.5" Noveske Afgan or 16" Operator barrel for the black lower. The problem I have is that I should have registered the stag lower as a SBR so I had the KNS pins and enhanced trigger guard on the precision rig(easy enough to change) I also have a PRI gasbuster and Young mfg M16 superduty BCG that I dont know which one to use it in.
So what do you think I should do? Im totally out of money for these things as I sit. I have 2 nice builds but I would still need to buy another set of troy BUIS to complete it. I cant decide if I want to keep the Nightforce scope either as it is very nice but $1300 is a large amount to have sitting in glass(What I paid but I bought and sold and have maybe $800 into it)
Would you combine the rolls of a SBR and Precision into one? I love how the 10.5" handles and the weight is awesome. I just wonder if its smart to have 2 rifles or have one very modular one.
The Acog TA31RCO is sold in the picture and it will probably get a Eotech at some point if I keep it -
I used to think that was a good idea - but No, the mission drives the gear - the gear doesnt drive the mission. In the compromise, you'll always be lacking something in each application.
If it weren't for guns we'd be driving on the left side of the road.
Build one as a 16" precision rig.
Build the SBR as a pure CQB rig.
That being said, the CQB rig can still make minute of man hits out to 300yds.
"Yeh, I'll bet that hurt."---SnakeDoctor
So with a CQB rig making hits out to 300yds(the max I really want to practically shoot) couldnt I combine them, reduce my cost of guns by a shitload, and still be happy?
Im just afraid Ill have these 2 really nice rifles and only one will get used to its full potential while the other will be babied and hardly used. That and $1800 could be eliminated from my collection and put onto something else.
Thanks for the opinions. I know ultimately it will be my choice but Im sure others have been in the same situation.
You can take your SBR and make minute of man hits out to 300yds. While you are doing that next to your friends who are shooting grapefruits with their precision (what you should have for 300yd shots), you'll wish you had your precision rifle.
While you are holding your do-all carbine for hours on end during a carbine class, you'll wish you had a light weight cabine like everyone else.
You will be happier, and have more fun doing with your rifle what it was meant to do.
again - mission drives the gear.
If it weren't for guns we'd be driving on the left side of the road.
Very well said!
Center of The Stack
Well said bigbore, I agree completely.
"Yeh, I'll bet that hurt."---SnakeDoctor
A little off topic, but I love the way the long handguards look on those two rifles
larue makes nices stuff
I do love the troy rails Ive had too though
12 1/2" SBR for cqb to 200yds
18" Midlength with glass for precision for 200-600 yds
Democrat slogan for the '08 elections: Death To America!
Republican slogan for '08: We aren't nearly as bad as them!
How do you like that stock...been thinking getting one for my 9mm.
I owned a Colt a for a month...and now I'm stuck with the name...
I like the pig!
"I don't hate them for killing my boys. I hate them for making my boys kill them."
-Golda Mier
1st Female Prime Minister of Israel
Yep I plan on doing that or just taking the vfg off that rifle and just having a handguard style setup with the panels.

A Guide to Voting in the General Election
Cotswold District Council staff are election-ready – and have all the information you need if you're unsure about voter registration, postal voting and proxy votes.
Around 80,000 election poll cards have now been posted to all Cotswold District residents who are registered to vote. Anyone who has not received their poll card by Saturday 16 November should check that they are on the electoral register, as the Council is keen to ensure anyone entitled to vote does not miss out.
This check can be done by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com or calling 01285 623002.
Electoral Registration Officer Nigel Adams, says: "People sometimes turn up at polling stations only to find out they are not able to vote as they are not on the register. Often it is because they have changed address and not realised that they need to re-register. Also, some think that paying council tax automatically adds them to the electoral register – but this is not the case.
"It is important to contact us as soon as possible if you have not received a poll card by 16 November."
The deadline to register to vote at the election on 12 December is midnight on Tuesday 26 November.
Who needs to register?
If you are 18 or over and have never registered or voted before, or if you have recently moved address, then you will need to register.
You can even register if you are aged 17, but you will need to have turned 18 by the election date to be eligible to vote this time.
To register to vote, please visit www.gov.uk/register-to-vote - you will need your national insurance number and date of birth in order to complete the registration process.
Applications to register must be received by midnight on 26 November 2019.
If you are not sure whether or not you are registered, you should check by calling Cotswold District Council's Elections Team on 01285 623002 or by emailing them at firstname.lastname@example.com
What if I'm not available on 12 December?
If you are not able to visit your allocated polling station on Election Day to cast your vote, then you can ask for a postal or proxy vote.
Postal votes will be issued no later than 27 November, and will need to be returned by 10pm on Election Day.
To apply for a postal vote, electors should complete a postal vote application form and return it the Elections Team by 5pm on Tuesday 26 November. If you already have a postal vote arrangement in place for all types of election, then you do not need to re-apply – but if you are in any doubt, please check.
A guide on how to complete your postal vote will be included in your postal vote pack.
If you do not receive your postal vote pack, a replacement cannot be issued until Friday 6 December 2019. Replacement packs can only be issued after we have received confirmation of your identity. Please contact us as soon as possible to arrange this. You may need to visit the Council Offices, Trinity Road, Cirencester, Gloucestershire GL7 1PX, bringing photographic ID with you, to obtain a replacement postal vote rather than rely on another to be posted to you – this will depend on how close to polling day it is.
Electors may prefer a proxy vote, where someone else votes on their behalf. The person chosen as proxy must be eligible to vote at the election. To apply for a proxy vote, electors should complete a proxy vote application form and return it the Elections Team by 5pm on Wednesday 4 December. Again, if you already have a proxy vote arrangement in place for all types of election, then you do not need to re-apply – but you might wish to check.
More information on voting by post or proxy, including application forms, is available on /about-the-council/elections/ or alternatively you can contact the Elections Team on 01285 623002 or email firstname.lastname@example.com
Additional information can also be found on the Electoral Commission's website: https://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/i-am-a/voter
Please remember:
Applications for voting by post must be submitted by 5pm on Tuesday 26 November 2019.
Applications for voting by proxy must be submitted by 5pm on Wednesday 4 December 2019.
Applications to change an existing postal or proxy vote arrangement must be submitted by 5pm on Tuesday 26 November 2019.
Can I vote if I live abroad?
You can register as an overseas voter for up to 15 years after you left the country, if you are a British citizen and you have been registered to vote in the UK within the last 15 years (or if you were too young to register when you left).
If you are serving in the armed forces abroad there is a special form you can fill out: https://www.gov.uk/register-to-vote-armed-forces
Likewise, if you are a Crown servant and British Council employee working abroad: https://www.gov.uk/register-to-vote-crown-servants-british-…
Who and what am I voting for?
Candidates wishing to stand for election, whether on behalf of a political party or as an independent, need to submit nomination papers to the Acting Returning Officer by 4pm on Thursday 14 November 2019. At 5pm on that day, a full list of those who will be standing for election in The Cotswolds Constituency will be published on Cotswold District Council's website.
It is down to candidates and parties to engage with voters and canvass support. Information may also be available through local party/candidate websites.
The Council cannot engage in any political activity and must remain neutral throughout – but we will provide regular factual updates in the run-up to election day, particularly in respect of key deadlines.

It is inevitable that your kid will, one day, get ill. Just as you know you will be taxed at the end of the year, that it will rain this summer and that you have 5 fingers on every hand (going on a limb here – pun intended).
There is very little you can do to prevent that!
Magic Cloak
When your baby is in the womb, he is given a magical gift that protects him from all the filth an sickness in the outside world. This is carried out for the next few months through breastfeeding and, in essence, your child is a bit like superman. (Granted, this is a huge generalisation and over-simplification, but you get the idea).
Sadly, a few months after birth, that magical cloak of invincibility loses its power and your child becomes more and more vulnerable to the outside world and starts picking up illnesses.
Some are really no reason to get worried about and some might need a trip to the GP or the hospital. The trick is to know which one is which.
Mums vs Dads
What really becomes apparent over the first few months is the different response each parent has.
Mothers will (generally and typically) get alarmed at the minor sniffle or sign of anomaly and put in motion the emergency plans for immediate medical intervention. On the other hand, dads will have a more analytical vision of things, often expressed with a shrug of the shoulders followed by "let's keep an eye on it".
Complimentary positions
Whilst neither of you have any medical qualifications of any sorts (unless one of you is in the medical domain), these two opposite views compliment each other quite nicely. One might push for immediate action whilst the other will ask for more time.
It is more than likely that you'll meet in the middle and get it right.
The thing to know is that the normal temperature of a healthy baby is, in general, 36.9 degrees. Take your child's temperature when they are healthy and happy to get a baseline idea for future reference.
And remember, we're no doctors or qualified medical personnel. We're just a bunch of dads talking from our experience. If you're worried in any way, shape or form about your child's health, get advice from a trained medical professional!~

Gemma Venhuizen studied Physical Geography at the VU and became a freelance journalist. She recently – and hesitantly – began referring to herself as a writer: her debut novel Alle bessen kun je eten – alleen sommige maar één keer was published in January.
She has the following advice to anyone with the ambition to become a writer: 'Don't be too critical of yourself, just set aside some free time to do it. Dare to make your dream come true, even if it feels safer to just keep dreaming. 'Writing fiction is just like sex: don't think about it, just do it.'
At first glance, Venhuizen doesn't resemble her novel's protagonist Jasmijn at all, who wrestles with making choices. On her site, she explains that she knew that she wanted to be a writer from the age of five, and by the time she was 17 she was writing a weekly column in the daily newspaper de Volkskrant. But her life as a freelance journalist could also be seen as a way not to have to make any real decisions, as she explains in her bohemian flat that she shares with a friend in Amsterdam's Spaarndammerbuurt neighbourhood.
How did you manage to get a weekly column in de Volkskrant when you were only 17? "I read the columns by Anna Woltz about her life as a student and thought: I want to know if I can do that too? So I submitted a piece to the editors of the Volkskrant. My mother, who in no way resembles Jasmijn's mother, told me: 'Maybe you should start with the regional newspaper Heemsteedse Courant?' But the editors liked my piece, and offered me a weekly column."
'Writing fiction is just like sex: don't think about it, just do it'
Why did you choose to study Earth Sciences if you wanted to become a writer? "That was really more to have something to fall back on if it didn't work out as a writer. My parents had taken me on holidays to the mountains since I was two. As a child, I just thought it was boring, but I gradually learned to love the panoramic landscape and I became interested in how it was created."
Did you learn anything useful in your studies? "I think about that a lot. I'm not really a scientist; a study in the humanities would probably have been easier for me. But I still benefited from my studies, and I often write about subjects related to earth sciences. And the study helped to shape me as a person. For example, all of the field work helped me get over my homesickness. And now that I really enjoy working at the juncture between science and art."
"When I was 15, I wrote down three dreams in my diary: travel to New Zealand, write a book and marry the man of my dreams. Thanks to my studies, I was able to participate in an essay contest for young geologists, which I won. The prize was a trip to a geological conference in Australia. So I took an extra five months' vacation and went on to New Zealand. That trip gave me another idea for a story: my next book will take place in New Zealand."
How did Alle bessen kun je eten come about? "Publisher Paul Brandt invited me to a meeting when I was writing my columns. He said: 'If you ever write a book, let me know.' That was a real luxury, of course! We met several times after that, and he always asked me about my book. I had started on a story before, but I couldn't get any farther. But then I went to Spitsbergen for field work. That trip was so overwhelming that I thought: I should use this as the setting for my story. After talking about it with some friends, I came to the idea that the theme of the book should be how difficult it is to make choices. Not just while you're a student, because you can always doubt whether you have made the right choice, or you can ask yourself if you made good choices in the past."
"So when I came across Paul again, I told him about my idea. We agreed that I would send him something, and that gave me the motivation that I needed. I eventually stopped working temporarily to give me the time to focus entirely on the book."
So you're well on your way to making all of the dreams on your list come true. What would you like to do next in your career? "I would like to shift to writing more fiction. But on the other hand, the benefit of my journalism work is that I have to get out of the house and actually interview people. When I'm alone in front of my laptop, I can lose contact with reality."
Maybe I'd like to combine my writing with a part-time side job. I used to work one day per week as a forest ranger in the dunes, where I could feel the wind in my hair. But I also love to improvise, and I'd rather leave the future open, because it gives me the illusion that I still have plenty of options. Now, I can try lots of things without having to choose. I don't want to lose that freedom."

The first few days of the new year are a really confusing time for me. I feel this freedom from the year before, but also this really terrifying sense of confusion for the year ahead. The year is LONG, and the possibility is eerie.
I think about 2017, and how my grandfather passed away unexpectedly within the first few months of the year. I didn't know that in January, when I kissed my boyfriend at midnight. I had just come back from an amazing semester interning in London. My boyfriend and I were back in the same country. We were in love. The year was supposed to be good and bright and free from the fights and the sadness of our eight months of long distance.
And then I lost half the year in the deepest depression I've ever known. I fell asleep in February and woke up in May. Even now, the memories don't really come back. But it wasn't all bad: That summer, I interned at Victoria's Secret and started my senior year of college and my last year in Los Angeles. I interned at The Zoe Report and fell back in love with fashion and writing. I got better. I stayed busy. And by the time 2018 came around, I was ready for it.
Now, looking at 2019 as a college graduate about to move into her first apartment (!!), I'm trying to turn that fear into hope.
I'm not one for resolutions because I never stick to them and end up feeling horrible about it all year long. But, over the course of the past few days, I've drummed up a loose list of things I would like to see myself do over the next twelve months. I'm writing them here so that they manifest and so that I can look back to them when I feel lost.
- WRITE MORE, WITH OR WITHOUT A PROMPT: I used to drown myself in my writing prompts in college. I would sit and think about all the different ways to attack the question. I would edit and re-edit and outline and re-outline until I had a near perfect ten pages. I loved being given pitches to cover at work. I loved sharing my perspective on a topic. But I feel lost when I'm left to my own devices. My #1 goal this year is to train my brain to see the stories in the world, rather than wait for them to be handed to me.
- STOP GETTING LOST ONLINE: This post has taken me over an hour to write. Every time I answer a text, I get sucked into Instagram or Facebook for twenty minutes at a time. And then I remember that this is exactly why I have such a hard time writing in my free time. Without an end goal, I fall victim to the pull of the Endless Scroll. I cannot explain to you how many times I log into my computer to look for jobs on LinkedIn and end up watching a HOW TO PERFECTLY POACH AN EGG video on Youtube. This year I want to be more focused on my channeling my free time so that I'm more productive.
- USE AND WEAR WHAT I HAVE: Shopping is a thrill for me, and it's often my go-to on a sad or low day for a quick high. But, as much as I would like to doubt myself, my financial situation is one where I can order Seamless three times a week or try every new concealer at Sephora. I would love for this year to be the year where I curb my own personal spending and put my money into things that will make me happy in the long term, like flights to see my friends in Los Angeles or the all important self care regimens my body and skin need.
- CUT MY DAIRY INTAKE: This one is simple. I love pizza, but pizza does not love my skin.
- READ MORE: Another simple one to round out the list. Good writers are good readers. Send me your book recommendations.
I can't end this post without telling myself that I need to be more positive. I could sit here and recount all the hard things about 2018: the fights and the panic attacks and the fear. But I could also sit here and talk about how my last semester of college was incredible because I finally gave up on trying to please people I didn't care about. I could tell you about how my best friend and I got to being best friends. I could tell you about my three-year anniversary, where I got so sick that I was bedridden the entire time, but still managed to have an amazing time with Gatsby. I could tell you about all the times my family gave me the hope to pursue my dreams to be a writer, even if it meant leaving Los Angeles — and the comfort of the last four years — behind. But I don't. And I should. And I will.
Here's to being better than we were three days ago. Happy New Year.

I'm not usually one for listening to soundtracks, this side of The Exorcist and The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle. But it is inspiring listening to the soundtrack to the all-conquering Broadway musical Hamilton (I haven't seen it yet, but my daughter Holly and lots of my friends have, all giving rave reviews).
One line stuck out to me, which has already been interpreted in many different ways. In Aaron Burr, Sir, Aaron Burr gives Hamilton some advice, which is well worth remembering. "Talk less - smile more." If everyone did this the world would be a happier place.
Stopping to really listen, pay attention to your companion, and truly hear what they are saying, is all too rare. Often we are too quick to step in and talk over them, especially in the business world. When you take a step back, smile, and listen, it can be really rewarding. It will also often end up in a more meaningful connection, which will in turn lead to more smiles.
However, when the next line is added, a whole new viewpoint comes into play. As Alexandra Petri points out in the Washington Post, Aaron Burr urges caution to Hamilton because he believes he should be worrying about the image he is portraying. "Don't let them know what you're against and what you're for," he tells him.
He's gone from great advice to terrible advice in one verse. It's one thing keeping your cards close to your chest, but you have to stand up for what you believe in.
Interestingly Hamilton heeds Burr's better advice and starts to listen to others. However he draws the line at not standing up for what he believes in. Later in life he actually votes against Burr's bid for the Presidency (and backs Thomas Jefferson) because he says he does not know what Burr stands for.
Whether it is in politics, business or your personal life, people will respect you for having a point of view and stating it.
When you get an opportunity, you've got to go for it wholeheartedly, not wait in the wings for some imaginary perfect time to materialise. You've got the seize the moment.
Then, regardless of whether you fail or succeed, go back to the first bit of advice, and smile!

Seattle Heating Installation & Replacement
Time for a New Heater or Furnace? Call (425) 689-7778
The average heater or furnace will last around 15 to 20 years, depending on how well it's cared for. Proper maintenance and repairs can extend the lifeline. However, there will come a time when you need a new heating unit and when that time comes, Bob's Heating & Air Conditioning is here for you.
Our skilled HVAC technicians have the training and experience to provide reliable heater installation and replacement services in Seattle. We work quickly and efficiently to ensure your home stays warm and comfortable throughout the colder seasons.
To learn more about our heating services, call (425) 689-7778 or schedule an appointment today!
Choosing Between a Heat Pump or Furnace
When it comes to heating your home, there are two forms of central home heating- furnaces and heat pumps. Although it can be difficult to know which one is right for your home, it all depends on what you are looking for. Learning about what each one does and the benefits of each can help you decide which system is best for your home.
What is a Heat Pump?
Heat pumps are devices that can be used as air conditioners as well as to heat your home. They work by moving heat from one point to another. During the heating season, heat pumps pump heat from the outside air into the house, and during the cooling season, heat pumps move heat from the inside of the home into the warm outdoors.
Benefits of a heat pump:
- Convenience; no need to install separate systems to heat & cool your home
- Efficient electric heating
- No gas required
- Does not burn oxygen
- Ability to maintain air quality since it does not create smoke or add fumes to the air
What is a Furnace?
A gas furnace creates heat by burning natural gas. It is controlled by a thermostat, which alerts the furnace when the temperature inside a home drops below a certain point. Furnaces use a flame to heat air and then that heated air is pushed out by a fan through ducts and out of the floor vents in your home.
Benefits of a furnace:
- Less expensive than a heat pump
- Durable and long-lasting
- Provides quick heat
- Heat spreads evenly throughout the house
The choice between a heat pump and a furnace comes down to which type of heating you prefer and how you prefer to cool down your home. If you prefer the convenience of having one system that heats and cools your home, then a heat pump would be a good option. But if summer heat is not a big concern or you prefer other methods to cool down your home, then a furnace would be a great choice. If you are considering purchasing a new heater or furnace, contact Bob's Heating & Air Conditioning!
Call (425) 689-7778 for trusted heating installation and replacement services that last.

As I prepare for my upcoming trip to France and Italy, I find myself thinking about all the French ceramics I'll be seeing shortly. It can be quite overwhelming when having to choose from all the wonderful pieces that my French artists create. But it's not all work, of course. Take my visits to Poterie d'Aigues-Vives. After the hard work of choosing is over, I love sitting around the table with Richard Esteban and his family, feasting on a delicious meal presented on his signature dishware.
Even if a trip to Provence is not in your future, it's easy to bring France to your home this summer. After you find some crusty bread, tangy cheese, and open that bottle of wine, you're well on your way. Ready to complete the vibe? Here are my tips for setting your table like Richard does:
Patterns should mix.
Plates and bowls don't need to match; stack striped plates and polka dot bowls together for flair and fun. Keep colors complementary and let your imagination run wild. If you're feeling bold, get other patterns and textures into the mix with your plates and bowls. Dishware sets never looked so unique!
Platters should be heaped.
The French like to enjoy a leisurely meal, particularly when enjoying dinner outside after the day's work is done. Fill French ceramic serving platters with fresh vegetables, crisp salads, perfectly done fish, or other bounties of the season, then enjoy time around the table (no need to run back to the kitchen). Strangely, I find that even though the mealtimes are longer in France, I always eat less since there's time to truly savor every bite.
Pitchers should be filled.
A meal isn't complete without the proper drinks. At Richard's that means a pitcher filled with red wine, another filled with water, and sometimes a third with fresh lemonade. Decanting allows your wine to breathe and the spout makes for easy pouring, no matter the beverage. I find that having all the drinks on the table also helps people stay there longer, chatting once the food is gone.
Color is essential.
Accessorize your French ceramics to truly bring Provence home. Flowers are an ideal addition to the table; use a small rustic vase for more country charm. Colorful napkins, placemats, or tablecloths are also great for pulling a table together. Don't try too hard to match, but do keep your colors in a similar tonal range for best results.
Now that your tableware set is ready and your decorative dinner plates filled, it's time to enjoy the best part of any French-inspired meal: the company around you. Bon appétit!

Band aids don't fix bullet holes… cause baby, we've got bad blood.
For anyone who knows anything about Korean culture, there's still some unresolved feels between Korea and Japan. The trouble stems as early as the Joseon era of 1910 to the time of World War II, when Japan forcefully occupied Korea. Much of the icky issues that arose during the time period (such as the Comfort Women) are still considered highly sensitive topics, as some issues have yet to even be resolved. With so much high tension around the subject, when one even remotely insults the suffering, all chaos breaks loose.
Must Read : 10 Things: The Greatest Scandals of Cube Entertainment
K-Pop idols are people, and people are bound to make mistakes. For this week's 10 Things, we cover the 10 K-Pop idols who have caused controversies by mistakenly looking lightly upon the Japanese occupation of Korea. After realizing their insensitivity, each idol has sincerely apologized for their moment of ignorance.
1. Tiffany – SNSD
The most recent incident involves SNSD's happy virus, Tiffany. On the National Liberation Day of Korea (August 15th), Tiffany posted a backstage photo on Instagram of the SNSD girls after the "SM TOWN Live World Tour V" at Tokyo Dome. The problem stemmed when the caption included the Japanese flag. On her SnapChat, Tiffany also uploaded a chat with the words "Tokyo Japan" written in the design of the Rising Sun Flag (the Japanese Flag at the time of their imperialism era). The fact that the idol had posted such emoticons on a national holiday celebrating the Korean flag, much of the Korean netizens were up in arms against the idol.
Tiffany wasn't the first moment of insensitivity by SNSD. The group's "Genie" album cover had featured a specific plane that looked a lot like the the Japanese fighter jets that were used by kamikazes during World War II. As one of the main K-Pop icons and representatives of the Korean culture, netizens felt that the album mishap was a slap in the face for Koreans.
Talking about group mishaps, 2PM also caused up a riot when they performed on a specific stage. The beast idols had performed one of their hit songs in front of a rising sun flag background. Needless to say, the boys had a rough night of heavy criticisms.
2PM weren't the only K-Pop boy bands to mistakenly broadcast the taboo flag. VIXX had visited Japan during the filming of "VIXX TV". During one episode, the boys were seen wearing a hat costume that featured the specific designs of the rising sun flag. The incident stirred up boycotts of the show as well as heavy criticism for the boys' ignorance.
5. Jang HyunSeung
4Minute's scandelous rebel, Jang HyunSeung had also seen his fair share of the rising sun mishap. A photo of the idol with fellow Trouble Maker member, HyunA had stirred up a controversy when it surfaced online. The two idols were wearing identical sweaters, but the image that very closely resembled the rising sun flag could be seen on HyunSeung's chest.
P.O probably knows exactly what Tiffany is feeling, because he made a very similar mistake just a few years ago. During the 70th anniversary of the National Liberation Day of Korea, P.O had participated in a special concert event with the BLOCK B boys. However, his choice of clothing was the root of the problem. He had worn – on the special holiday performance – a white shirt that featured the Japanese language that meant "nothing's wrong". Although he probably didn't mean it, the concept came off as though the fact that the Japanese forcefully occupied Korea was no big deal.
7. HyeRi – Girl's Day
Much like P.O, Girl's Day's HyeRi had also once chosen the wrong performance outfit. The idol had worn a shirt that literally spelled out "My Shirt Will HELP Japan" with the rising sun design inside a heart. As a K-Pop artist, performing a Korean song, on a Korean stage – this was definitely not well received.
Taking a trip back in time, there was a time when the world famous star of BIG BANG had made a similar wrong choice in wardrobe. Back in the early BIG BANG era, T.O.P wore a jacket that featured a rising sun flag-like designs on the chest. He had come on a national TV show with the said jacket, enraging multiple netizens.
9. G-Dragon – BIG BANG
T.O.P's fellow member, G-Dragon had also been the center of hateful comments when he was seen posing for a cutout that featured the rising sun flag design. Needless to say, we believe the BIG BANG members had learnt their lessons.
10. JiMin & SeolHyun – AOA
A trip back to only a few months ago, AOA was the center of controversy for not recognizing a historical figure during the Korean liberation. The said historical figure was Ahn JoongGeun, who was an independence activist famous for assassinating Japanese tatesman and former Resident-General of Korea – Ito Hirobumi. JiMin and SeolHyun continued to mistake the national hero in a joking manner, which brought on the fury of netizens.

BASALT – Nearly 3,000 inspections of boats going in and out of Ruedi Reservoir this past summer turned up no sign of the invasive species that have been inadvertently introduced into other reservoirs in Colorado.
The program, in its second year, intercepted more than 75 percent of the boats launched at Ruedi over the course of the summer, between the Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends, according to the Ruedi Power and Water Authority, the lead agency in the effort.
"It's one of those things where, if you don't get any results, it's a success," said Mark Fuller, the authority's director.
Inspections took place on Wednesday through Sunday of each week, plus Monday holidays, ending with Labor Day, on Sept. 5. The program averaged about 40 boats per day; the busiest day was July 27, when 143 boats were checked.
In all, 2,024 inspections were done on boats entering the reservoir, while 951 inspections were conducted on boats coming out of the lake.
Inspectors were looking for zebra and quagga mussels, destructive species that have infested other Colorado reservoirs, but have not been detected in Ruedi.
Eight boats were deemed high-risk vessels because they were carrying water from other bodies of water in bilge tanks or other containers that could carry mussels or their larvae. They were subjected to a high-pressure wash with steaming-hot water at the inspection station.
Boaters should completely drain and dry their boat when moving from one body of water to another, Fuller explained.
Inspections at Ruedi first occurred in 2009 with infrequent checks by a roving inspection unit arranged by state wildlife officials; it set up occasionally at the Ruedi boat ramp. In 2010, the Ruedi Water and Power Authority, or RWAPA, spearheaded a beefed-up effort on summer weekends. Last year's inspections also came up negative.
This year's effort was the most intensive yet, with inspections on 73 of the 99 days between May 27 and Sept. 5. In addition, operational improvements were made to let boats or vehicles that didn't need to be inspected pass through more easily, and the size of the inspection crew was doubled on Fridays and Saturdays to speed up the process.
RWAPA reported few complaints from the boating public, though one individual was reportedly dismayed that the inspection station wasn't operating continuously.
Next season, the inspections may take place on Friday through Tuesday of each week in an attempt to intercept more boats.
Last spring, Fuller was uncertain about the future of the inspection program beyond this year, but contributors to the cost of the effort have indicated they will continue to support the program, he said Thursday.
"We're optimistic that we'll at least be able to duplicate this year's program for the near future," he said.
The total cost of this year's effort was $25,397, RWAPA reported. Rocky Mountain Recreation, the inspection contractor, charged $24,500 for its services.
Funding for the effort came from the U.S. Forest Service ($15,000), RWAPA ($8,000), Aspen Skiing Co. Environmental Fund ($3,000), Roaring Fork Conservancy ($1,000), and the Colorado River District ($1,000). Free storage of the inspection shed is being provided in El Jebel by the Town of Basalt.
Any remaining funds from this year will go toward next year's inspections, RWAPA said.

This Sonett is an undeniably Scandinavian treat, complete with strange styling, bizarre technology (freewheeling clutch?) and V4 engine mated to the front wheels. V4 engines are common in motorcycles where they are prized for compactness, but only Lancia, Ford of Europe (SAAB used the German one) and ZAZ built the V4 configuration for automobiles.
The two-stroke SAAB may be the one to get all the press, but the V4 is easier to maintain, makes about the same power (65 hp for 1.5 liter V4, 60 hp for 841cc 2-stroke) and will do it while consuming considerably less gasoline and engine oil. Enjoy the above video from the cinematographic geniuses over at Petrolicious. They are an independent group that creates videos far better than any studio backed production shows on cable TV, except maybe BBC Top Gear.
Inside the Sonett is equipped with three pedals and a column shifter...which is the only way the Sonett was ever available from the factory. The Sonett was equipped from the factory with a freewheeling clutch that would allow the engine to disengage from the transmission during off-throttle, to avoid engine braking in an attempt to avoid the inevitable explosion of the 2-stroke engine. Strangely enough the V4 version kept the freewheeling clutch even though it didn't need the feature.

The Benefits of a 20% Down Payment
The Benefits of a 20% Down Payment
If you are in the market to buy a home this year, you may be confused about how much money you need to come up with for your down payment. Many people you talk to will tell you that you need to save 20% or you won't be able to secure a mortgage.
The truth is that there are many programs available that let you put down as little as 3%. Those who have served our country could qualify for a Veterans Affairs Home Loan (VA) without needing a down payment.
These programs have cut the savings time that many families would need to compile a large down payment from five or more years down to a year or two. This allows them to start building family wealth sooner.
So then, why do so many people believe that they need a 20% down payment to buy a home? There has to be a reason! Today, we want to talk about four reasons why putting 20% down is a good plan, if you can afford it.
1. Your interest rate will be lower.
Putting down a 20% down payment vs. a 3-5% down payment shows your lender/bank that you are more financially stable, thus a good credit risk. The more confident your bank is in your credit score and your ability to pay your loan, the lower the rate they will be willing to give you.
2. You'll end up paying less for your home.
The bigger your down payment, the lower your loan amount will be for your mortgage. If you are able to pay 20% of the cost of your new home at the start of the transaction, you will only pay interest on the remaining 80%. If you put down a 5% down payment, the extra 15% on your loan will accrue interest and end up costing you more in the long run!
3. Your offer will stand out in a competitive market!
In a market where many buyers are competing for the same home, sellers like to see offers come in with 20% or larger down payments. The seller gains the same confidence that the bank did above. You are seen as a stronger buyer whose financing is more likely to be approved. Therefore, the deal will be more likely to go through!
4. You won't have to pay Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI)
Simply put, PMI is "an insurance policy that protects the lender if you are unable to pay your mortgage. It's a monthly fee, rolled into your mortgage payment, that is required for all conforming, conventional loans that have down payments less than 20%."
As we mentioned earlier, when you put down less than 20% to buy a home, your lender/bank will see your loan as having more risk. PMI helps them recover their investment in you if you are unable to pay your loan. This insurance is not required if you are able to put down 20% or more.
Many times, home sellers looking to move up to a larger or more expensive home are able to take the equity they earn from the sale of their house to put down 20% on their next home.
If you are looking to buy your first home, you will have to weigh the benefits of saving a 20% down payment vs. the time and cost of continuing to rent while you save that amount.
Bottom Line
If your plan for your future includes buying a home and you're already saving for your down payment, let's get together to help you decide what down payment size best fits with your long-term plan!
