PCS challenges government's strict boundaries on pensions negotiations
The PCS is challenging ministers to explain how pensions negotiations can be said to be ongoing when they have now confirmed so many areas are ruled out of the discussions.
The union is involved in the civil service scheme talks with officials, but strict parameters have been set across all sectors by ministers Francis Maude and Danny Alexander who have not met the unions since 2 November.
General secretary Mark Serwotka said: "Ministers continually claim negotiations are ongoing, but this is sheer hypocrisy because it is clear that the rules have been so firmly set that an agreement would be impossible.
"We will continue to go to all meetings, but we are not interested in talking to officials about how to share the pain, and we need ministers to stop carping from the sidelines and to come back to the table with a serious willingness to discuss the key areas of concern for millions of public servants."
PCS has been told there is no more money available and this week it was confirmed key areas are non-negotiable, meaning civil and public servants would have to pay more and work longer for less in retirement, and other unions are being told the same.
These include:
Increase in contributions: The average increase must be 3.2%. This is entirely unnecessary because the schemes have been independently assessed as affordable now and in the future – these increases will go to the Treasury to pay off the budget deficit.
Pension age: Despite previous assurances that this could be discussed, ministers say the pension age in all schemes must be linked to the state pension age.
Indexation: All calculations are to be based on the consumer prices index, not earnings as recommended by John Hutton, or the retail prices index as previously before the government imposed a switch in last year's budget.
They have also ruled out discussing the impact of the public sector pay freeze and the two-year 1% cap that will follow it, or the Treasury's assumptions that pay rises over the coming decades will average 4.25% with inflation substantially lower. Pay increases are currently 0% and inflation is above 5%.
Ministers are prepared to discuss the limited protection for people within 10 years of retirement – though any money saved can not be used for any other aspect of the scheme – and they will discuss accrual rates, but this is pre-determined by the issues we are not able to discuss and, in addition, they say the negotiations must be concluded by the end of December.
The union's national executive met this week and confirmed that, if no improved offer is made, it will be proposing further strike action "as early as possible" in the new year.

Why Autism and Computing
Quote from http://ballastexistenz.autistics.org/
I'm not sure they understand what kind of message it sends me when I'm actually communicating with them and they focus on how wonderful it is to "hear my voice", but if they're reading this, now they know. (If you are reading this and you've done that, I don't want an apology, I don't want to discuss it, because it's more emotional for me than is probably easy for you to imagine. I just want it to stop.)

charming spaces: white & rustic
Just give me any ingredients and I am ready to spend a day in this white and rustic kitchen cooking up a
storm. You want home-made ice cream for dessert? I'll make it. Cake too? No problem, you can have it.
As much as I love elegant kitchens I find myself more drawn to ones that have a bit of that rustic vibe going
on. I don't know what it is; it just feels more real somehow. I guess it has something to do with me liking
kitchens that are easy to maintain, kitchens that just look very homey. This one is in a house on the French
island Île de Ré, just outside of La Rochelle, which is on the west coast. I love how bright it is and how the
decor is kept to a minimum. It's the food that matters.
How has your week been? I'm ready to give the alarm clock a rest and sleep in just a little. Today I have
prioritised things that need to be done so I can enjoy relaxing this weekend. I'll be back tomorrow with a bit
of Luxembourg. Enjoy your Friday!

Rustic is beautiful - I wouldn´t have it in my own home but I love to see it in pics like this. Enjoy your weekend! :-)ReplyDelete

I like a good mix. modern and rustic. so this one fits perfectly. have a most wonderful Friday :)ReplyDelete
I think it has to do with the homey, warm feel those rustic details give. I've always had a soft spot for exposed brick, hard wooden floors and beams and paired with white - it's just perfect. Have a beautiful Friday, Lisa!ReplyDelete
As soon as I saw this kitchen it reminded me of a home we were renting in when we first got married - its' the exposed brick and white cabinets mix. Not cold in the least without adornment just a great wooden floorboard too. I love a neat kitchen with everything in its place - more room for looking up recipes and making things ! Have a great weekend Lisa :)xReplyDelete
Or maybe you have grown up in such a kitchen and the feeling is coming back. I know for me it is, it makes me think about the bread and pies that my grandmother baked there...Have a lovely weekend, Lisa!ReplyDelete
I like the kitchen you chose - it's very warm and cosy, but also feels modern and fresh. I often get a feeling that people who have very very very modern kitchen don't actually cook that much - imagine cleaning all those stainless steel surfaces? ;)ReplyDelete
Enjoy your weekend!
i love this kitchen too. the exposed brick, beams, high ceiling, white and bright - it's perfect. i agree about the rustic kitchen. i also love kitchens with a table in them. for me that just feels perfect. this weekend i am looking forward to doing some work so i can be ahead next week. (but that doesn't sound too fun now that i think about it!).ReplyDelete
For me, this would be the perfect kitchen in a holiday home by the sea. I'd like to bake cakes there, too!!ReplyDelete
Rauðvínsglas, matarilmur og gamall djass - þá verður þetta fullkomið eldhús :)ReplyDelete
A very cozy kitchen, indeed; I love the brick walls!ReplyDelete
Have a relaxing weekend,
I am also drawn to rustic kitchens - maybe it's because I prefer more rustic food. I love the exposed brick wall in this one. x SharonReplyDelete
Love this kitchen! Agree, agree, agree! Love rustic some kitchens!ReplyDelete

Hi, Alan Glasby from Kestrel Business Assist here speaking (in a very busy Coffee shop!) to Remy Tancred, the incredibly hard working entrepreneurial owner of Sample Magazine and Sample Food Festival.
Remy's message to us is to:
"Plan - but be prepared for change. Remodel along the way."
Have a clear idea of where you want to be, but not necessarily how you are going to get there. Take the opportunities that present themselves - but only if they fit your core values and propel you towards that goal.
Remy's Northern Rivers Journey began with the Community news magazine "Lennox Wave".
Listening to her market and applying the internet trend that the consumer want to research, Remy moved her focus to Food of the Northern Rivers, creating "Sample" magazine. A high quality publication, "Sample" championed the region's growers and farmers.
Sample Food Festival grew from there, and is now outgrowing its home.
Somewhere along the way Remy found the time to be involved in the production of "Ate Phat Ducks" Eight ordinary women visit 30 extraordinary restaurants.
What's next for Remy?
Well, the day after this interview she was organising "Biggest Morning Tea" charity event at Cape Byron Lighthouse, then off to Melbourne for another trade show, peddling the Sample barrow.
Who knows what will follow; but you can be guaranteed that Remy will be following her passion.
Would a clear Focus help you?
Would developing a strategy take the pressure off?

text: But for those of you who chose not to ignore this and actually opened it.... Been coming to My Digital Life for years....great source of information. I've been forced to make 5 posts.....not 4.....not 3.....but 5 posts. See, I found a solution to defeating HP's wifi whitelist in another thread. I have some specific questions I need to PM to someone who used the same modded BIOS that I would like to use, but the board won't allow me to PM someone unless I have 5 posts. So here I am. Posting useless posts just to get my count up. So ignore this thread. But if you're still reading.... I've got an HP dv9700t laptop that came with an Intel 4965AGN wifi card. Overall it's been a great laptop, except for the typical HP motherboard fail a few days after going out of warranty. But...I've had ongoing problems with the wifi shutting down at times of high transfer rates (torrents, high rate file downloads, Usenet). This happens on different wireless router / cable modem combos, so can't blame it on D-Link, Netgear, Linksys, Cisco, Motorola, etc. I've read that the Intel 4965AGN tended to overheat at prolonged high transfer rates, resulting in the shutdown, for which the only way to get it going again was a full reboot. This is the problem I've been having. I replaced the card, only to have the same problem. I'm ready to try the modded BIOS, but I want to touch base with someone who has used the BIOS with a new card to see if that helped things. So....enough of my prattling on....I told you that you shouldn't read this.

Reverse 3-Up – The Affluence Network Coin Price Silver Ingot Blockchain
We would like to thank you for coming to The Affluence Network in search for "The Affluence Network Coin Price Silver Ingot Blockchain" online. It was in the year 2008 when the first cryptocurrency was created. This was the digital money referred to as Bitcoin. There are distinct from common money we know. It is because they are not commanded by any nation or authorities. They don't go through any third party. It was a huge breakthrough in the means of exchange. In addition, it brought tremendous alternatives to the problems of identity theft online. Transactions go through several celebrations as a means of creating trust, but nowadays it truly is possible to create trust through creation of a sophisticated code by just one party.
Entrepreneurs in the cryptocurrency movement may be wise to investigate possibilities for making massive ammonts of money with various kinds of internet marketing.There could be a rich reward for anyone daring enough to brave the cryptocurrency marketplaces.Bitcoin design provides an instructive example of how one might make lots of money in the cryptocurrency marketplaces. Bitcoin is an extraordinary intellectual and technical achievement, and it has created an avalanche of editorial coverage and venture capital investment opportunities. But not many people understand that and miss out on quite successful business models made available because of the growing use of blockchain technology.
It should be difficult to get more small gains (~ 10%) throughout the day. Study how to read these Candlestick charts! And I discovered these two rules to be accurate: having modest gains is more rewarding than attempting to resist up to the summit. Most day traders follow Candlestick, so it is better to take a look at books than wait for order confirmation when you think the cost is going down. Secondly, there's more volatility and reward in currencies that never have made it to the profitability of sites like Coinwarz.
It is definitely possible, but it must have the ability to recognize opportunities no matter marketplace behavior. The market moves in relation to cost BTC … So even if it's in a BTC trend down can make money by purchasing the altcoins which are altcoin oversold trading ratios-BTC. Sure, your purchasing power in DOLLARS may be lower, but as long as your purchasing power in BTC is still growing you will be ok.

The beauty of the cryptocurrencies is that scam was proved an impossibility: because of the dynamics of the protocol where it's transacted. All purchases on the crypto currency blockchain are permanent. Once youare paid, you get paid. This is simply not anything temporary where your customers could challenge or need a discounts, or use illegal sleight of palm. In practice, many merchants could be a good idea to use a transaction processor, because of the permanent dynamics of crypto currency orders, you have to make certain that security is difficult. With any kind of crypto currency may it be a bitcoin, ether, litecoin, or the numerous different altcoins, thieves and hackers could potentially gain access to your private keys and so take your money. Sadly, you probably will never get it back. It's quite crucial for you yourself to undertake some great secure and safe procedures when working with any cryptocurrency. This will guard you from many of these negative activities.
Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, LiteCoin, Ether, YOCoin, and many others have now been designed as a non-fiat currency. Quite simply, its backers claim that there is actual value, even through there is absolutely no physical representation of that value. The value increases due to computing power, that's, is the only way to create new coins distributed by allocating CPU power via computer programs called miners. Miners create a block after a time period which is worth an ever diminishing amount of money or some type of benefit so that you can ensure the shortage. Each coin includes many smaller components. For Bitcoin, each component is called a satoshi. Once created, each Bitcoin (or 100 million satoshis) exists as a cipher, that is part of the block that gave rise to it. The individual who has mined the coin holds the address, and transfers it to some value is supplied by another address, which is a wallet file saved on a computer. The blockchain is where the public record of all trades lives.
The fact that there is little evidence of any increase in using virtual money as a currency may be the reason there are minimal efforts to regulate it. The reason behind this could be just that the market is too little for cryptocurrencies to justify any regulatory effort. It truly is also possible that the regulators simply don't understand the technology and its consequences, anticipating any developments to act.
Mining cryptocurrencies is how new coins are put in circulation. Because there's no government control and crypto coins are digital, they cannot be printed or minted to produce more. The mining process is what creates more of the coin. It may be useful to think of the mining as joining a lottery group, the pros and cons are exactly the same. Mining crypto coins means you'll get to keep the total rewards of your efforts, but this reduces your chances of being successful. Instead, joining a pool means that, overall, members will have a higher chance of solving a block, but the reward will be divided between all members of the pool, based on the amount of shares won.
If you are thinking about going it alone, it's worth noting the software configuration for solo mining can be more complex than with a swimming pool, and beginners would be likely better take the latter path. This alternative also creates a stable flow of revenue, even if each payment is small compared to fully block the benefit.
Here is the trendiest thing about cryptocurrencies; they don't physically exist anywhere, not even on a hard drive. When you look at a specific address for a wallet featuring a cryptocurrency, there is absolutely no digital information held in it, like in exactly the same way a bank could hold dollars in a bank account. It's simply a representation of value, but there is absolutely no real tangible type of that value. Cryptocurrency wallets may not be seized or immobilized or audited by the banks and the law. They do not have spending limits and withdrawal constraints enforced on them. No one but the person who owns the crypto wallet can determine how their riches will be managed.
In the event of a fully functioning cryptocurrency, it might also be dealt like a commodity. Proponents of cryptocurrencies proclaim this form of digital money is not managed by way of a fundamental banking system and it is not thus susceptible to the whims of its inflation. Since there are a restricted number of products, this money's benefit is dependant on market forces, allowing homeowners to deal over cryptocurrency exchanges.

Ethereum is an unbelievable cryptocurrency platform, nevertheless, if growth is too quickly, there may be some difficulties. If the platform is adopted quickly, Ethereum requests could rise dramatically, and at a rate that surpasses the rate with which the miners can create new coins. Under a situation like this, the whole platform of Ethereum could become destabilized because of the raising costs of running distributed applications. In turn, this could dampen interest Ethereum platform and ether. Uncertainty of demand for ether may result in an adverse change in the economic parameters of an Ethereum based company that may lead to company being unable to continue to manage or to discontinue operation.
Lots of people choose to use a money deflation, especially people who need to save. Despite the criticism and skepticism, a cryptocurrency coin may be better suited for some uses than others. Fiscal privacy, for example, is excellent for political activists, but more debatable as it pertains to political campaign funding. We need a secure cryptocurrency for use in trade; in case you are living paycheck to paycheck, it'd happen within your wealth, with the rest reserved for other currencies.
You have probably heard this many times where you often spread the great word about crypto. It is not unpredictable? What happens if the value crashes? sofar, many POS systems provides free conversion of fiat, relieving some issue, but before the volatility cryptocurrencies is resolved, most of the people is likely to be unwilling to put on any. We must find a way to fight the volatility that's inherent in cryptocurrencies.
The physical Internet backbone that carries information between different nodes of the network is currently the work of a number of companies called Internet service providers (ISPs), which includes companies that offer long distance pipelines, sometimes at the international level, regional local pipe, which ultimately links in families and businesses. The physical connection to the Internet can only happen through any of these ISPs, players like level 3, Cogent, and IBM AT&T. Each ISP manages its own network. Internet service providers Exchange IXPs, owned or private firms, and sometimes by Governments, make for each of these networks to be interconnected or to transfer messages across the network. Many ISPs have agreements with suppliers of physical Internet backbone providers to offer Internet service over their networks for last mile-consumers and businesses who need to get Internet connectivity. Internet protocols, followed by everyone in the network makes it possible for the info to flow without interruption, in the right location at the perfect time.
While none of these organizations possesses the Internet collectively these firms decide how it works, and established rules and standards that everyone remains. Contracts and legal framework that underlies all that's happening to determine how things work and what happens if something goes wrong. To get a domain name, for example, one needs permission from a Registrar, which has a contract with ICANN. To connect to the Internet, your ISP must be physical contracts with providers of Internet backbone services, and suppliers have contracts with IXPs from the Internet backbone for connecting to and with her. Concern over security problems? A working group is formed to work with the issue and the alternative developed and deployed is in the interest of all parties. If the Internet is down, you've got someone to phone to get it mended. If the problem is from your ISP, they in turn have contracts in place and service level agreements, which govern the manner in which these problems are resolved.
The benefit of cryptocurrency is that it uses blockchain technology. The network of nodes the make up the blockchain isn't governed by any centralized company. No one can tell the miners to update, speed up, slow down, stop or do anything. And that's something that as a dedicated advocate badge of honor, and is identical to the way the Internet works. But as you comprehend now, public Internet governance, normalities and rules that govern how it works present built-in difficulties to the user. Blockchain technology has none of that.

This mining activity validates and records the trades across the whole network. So if you are trying to do something illegal, it's not wise because everything is recorded in the public register for the remainder of the world to see eternally.
Just a fraction of bitcoins issued so far can be found on the exchange markets. Bitcoin markets are competitive, which implies the cost a bitcoin will rise or fall depending on supply and demand. A lot of people hoard them for long term savings and investment. This restricts the variety of bitcoins that are really circulating in the exchanges. Moreover, new bitcoins will continue to be issued for decades to come. Thus, even the most diligent buyer couldn't buy all existing bitcoins. This situation isn't to imply that markets aren't exposed to price exploitation, yet there's no need for big amounts of cash to transfer market prices up or down. The slightest events on the planet economy can affect the cost of Bitcoin, This can make Bitcoin and any other cryptocurrency volatile.
Bitcoin is the primary cryptocurrency of the internet: a digital money standard by which all other coins are compared to. Cryptocurrencies are distributed, international, and decentralized. Unlike conventional fiat currencies, there is no authorities, banks, or some other regulatory agencies. As such, it's more resistant to crazy inflation and corrupt banks. The benefits of using cryptocurrencies as your method of transacting cash online outweigh the security and privacy hazards. Security and seclusion can readily be realized by just being clever, and following some basic guidelines. You wouldn't put your whole bank ledger online for the word to see, but my nature, your cryptocurrency ledger is publicized. This can be fixed by removing any identity of ownership in the wallets and therefore keeping you anonymous.
Since among the earliest forms of making money is in cash financing, it really is a fact that one can do that with cryptocurrency. Most of the giving websites currently focus on Bitcoin, some of those websites you are needed fill in a captcha after a particular period of time and are rewarded with a small quantity of coins for visiting them. It is possible to see the www.cryptofunds.co web site to find some lists of of these websites to tap into the money of your choice. Unlike forex, stocks and options, etc., altcoin markets have very different dynamics. New ones are constantly popping up which means they don't have lots of market data and historical view for you to backtest against. Most altcoins have quite inferior liquidity as well and it is hard to think of a reasonable investment strategy.
Cryptocurrency is freeing people to transact money and do business on their terms. Each user can send and receive payments in the same way, but in addition they take part in more complex smart contracts. Multiple signatures allow a transaction to be supported by the network, but where a certain number of a defined group of people agree to sign the deal, blockchain technology makes this possible. This enables progressive dispute mediation services to be developed in the future. These services could allow a third party to approve or reject a transaction in the event of disagreement between the other parties without checking their money. Unlike cash and other payment systems, the blockchain constantly leaves public proof that the transaction happened. This can be possibly used in an appeal against companies with deceptive practices.

Chatting with Paul Beutel
By Rob Faubion
Since opening its doors one year ago, The Long Center for the Performing Arts has quickly become a fixture in the Austin arts world. In the short 12 months of its existence on the shores of Lady Bird Lake, the retrofitted Palmer Auditorium facility has hosted operas, ballets, concerts, musicals, plays, and performances of every artistic vein.
Beutel took a few minutes to discuss The Long Center's place in Austin and what's in store for the coming year.
AustinOnStage.com: Congratulations on the first year of
Paul Beutel: The role of The Long Center has not changed. The Long Center exists to provide performance space and support services to the founding resident companies of Dell Hall - the Austin Symphony, Ballet Austin and Austin Lyric Opera - as well as provide space and services for the many smaller and diverse performing arts organizations who use the Rollins Studio Theatre. In addition, the Long Center presents outstanding national and international artists in the "Long Center Presents" series. The Long Center facilities also serve as a community gathering place for meetings, receptions and other functions both public and private.
AOS.com: I know that there have been recent media reports of "boot strapping" and reprogramming at The Long Center - understandably due to the current economy. In a nutshell, what changes have taken place and why?
P.B.: Like any new organization, The Long Center has faced the challenges of achieving operating efficiencies. The challenge has been compounded, of course, by the current economic climate. As we have learned more about what it takes to operate the Center on a daily basis, we have confronted the economic challenges and managed to trim our operating budget by an amazing 20%.
The budget trimming did involve the elimination of eight staff positions and job re-ordering. Client and audience services, however, have not been compromised.
AOS.com: Along with the mainstream choices for programming, there have been some really exciting, non-conventional programming during the past year. How are the decisions on "what to pick" and "what to pass on" made in terms of programming at The Long Center?
P.B.: Part of my role as Managing Director is to program our "Long Center Presents" series of touring artists and attractions. The Programming and Marketing Committee from the Board of Directors serves as my sounding board and advisory group for programming choices.

Qwik-Zyme CS – For Complex Starches
Qwik-Zyme CS is a biocatalyst that will quickly break down high fructose corn syrup, corn starch, and other high molecular-weight polysaccarides into glucose for bacteria to quickly digest.
This corn syrup degrader was designed to ease the wastewater process allowing major savings on treatment costs.
5 gallon case ($365.00)
The Only Corn Syrup Degrader
High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS), corn starch, and vegetable starch are among the most difficult complex carbohydrates to degrade in wastewater. These compounds are extremely high in BOD and their complexity resists bacterial breakdown.
Facilities with these constituents in their wastewater try to counteract the high COD by over-aerating. Over-aerating increases bad odors, costs thousands of dollars in electrical bills, and only provides marginal reduction in COD.
Aquafix, Inc. has developed a new biocatalyst to break down these complex, high molecular weight polysaccharides in wastewater processes. Qwik-Zyme CS speeds up the degradation of HFCS and vegetable starches while allowing major savings on aeration and other operational costs.
When used for HFCS: Qwik-Zyme CS allows complete breakdown of HFCS into glucose to be further digested by bacteria. Its high-performing biocatalyst is an essential piece missing from HFCS wastewaters.
When used for corn and vegetable starches: Qwik-Zyme CS is used to break down the complex starches into glucose and other bio-available simple sugars. Alternating between Qwik-Zyme CS and Qwik-Zyme P when breaking down starches allows the bacteria to access even more of the simple sugars and degrade them.
- Fast degradation of High Fructose Corn Syrup
- Aids Bacterial Digestion
- Reduces Odors
- Reduces Aeration Expenses
- Reduces Sludge Production
- Improves Dissolved Oxygen
Product Info Downloads
Note: Dose rates are estimates, actual dose rates depend on the season and what type of wastewater treatment is used. Dosage rates listed below are based on 5,000 ppm of incoming COD.
- Super Dose: 1 quart per 0.1 MGD per day until odor dissipates or COD drops 50-75%
- Maintenance: 1 pint per 0.1 MGD three times a week
For best results:
- This product is either metered or poured into the front end of the of the wastewater process – Do not spray this product into the air
- Wastewater pH should be 3-6; bacterial additions are not helpful at this pH. If using bacterial products such as VitaStim Sludge Reducer wait until the pH is 6 -8.5
- Water temperatures should be above 68°F (20°C).
- Only mild aeration is needed
- Product outperforms bacterial alternatives at any acidity, but works exceptionally well in a lower pH. At a pH of 3-6 Qwik-Zyme CS will degrade the corn syrup 10 times faster than normal. At a pH of 6-8, Qwik-Zyme CS will still perform three times faster than its bacterial alternative.
- *For vegetable canning facilities, alternate between Qwik-Zyme P and Qwik-Zyme CS. We do this because of the complex proteins present in vegetable starches. Alternating will speed the process of degradation.

Eid-ul-Fitr was celebrated with gaiety and fervor in Rajasthan on Tuesday. Prayers were offered to congregations held in various places. In the capital of Jaipur State, thousands of Muslims gathered to offer prayers in Idgah on the outskirts of the city and Jama Masjid in Johri Bazar Area.
Celebrate Eid – Ul – Fitr In Jaipur Rajasthan
Eid ul-Fitr marks the end of the month of Ramadan. "Fitr" means breaking and this means breaking the fasting period and all bad habits. It is a spectacle of joy to achieve spiritual prosperity after a month of fasting. The sacred month of Ramadan, which culminates in the Eid-ul-Fitr Festival, unites all Muslims to fasting, feasting, worship and prayer. It is a time for contemplation, spirituality, peace and fraternity.
Muslims celebrate "Eid ul Fitr on the first day of Shawwal - the tenth month of the Islamic calendar, after the month of Ramadan (in which the revelation began and ended 20 + years later, and which is also the month of Fasting). After a lunar calendar, Muslims mark the beginning of the month with the view of the new crescent.
Popular Festival Eid – Ul – Fitr In Jaipur Rajasthan
A special dish called "Sheer Khorma" which is also called "Seviyan kheer" and biryani is prepared and served to guests on the occasion of Eid-ul-Fitr.
People dressed in new clothes were seen greeting and distributing sweets after performing Namaaz in the morning. In some places, the Hindus also exchanged greetings with the Muslims. Before offering prayers, Muslim families paid Fitra or charity of at least RS 35 on behalf of each member according to Islamic rules so that the poor could also celebrate the Festival.

Cape Sharp Tidal Deploys First 2MW Turbine at FORCE
Nov 7, 2016: From Cape Sharp Tidal:
"Today at 10:40AM, Cape Sharp Tidal safely deployed the first OpenHydro Open-Centre turbine at the Fundy Ocean Research Centre for Energy (FORCE) near Parrsboro, Nova Scotia. The operation—our first attempt—was completed in one tidal cycle, while holding station in the Crown Lease Area.
Atlantic Towing's Kingfisher towed the Scotia Tide deployment barge from West Bay to the site early this morning. Once in position over our berth, the Cape Sharp Tidal turbine was lowered to the sea floor in a 4-hour operation on an ebb tide.
Several expert partners contributed to this precision work, including Nova Scotia companies Atlantic Towing (Dartmouth), Seaforth (Dartmouth), Mike Huntley (Kentville) and RMI (Dartmouth). More than 25 local crews participated.
During the remainder of this week's deployment window, our crews will be focused on completing the grid-connection to FORCE's subsea cable, and delivering Nova Scotia's first in-stream tidal energy to the Provincial power grid. In the next few days, we'll connect the turbine cable tail and our Y-shaped connector cable by lifting each from the sea floor and joining them on the deck of Atlantic Towing's Beaver Barge."

The BMJ (British Medical Journal) recently published a report that found those who volunteered regularly experienced higher levels of mental well-being than those who never volunteered.
As the Mother Nature Network states, this report is just the latest study to find "volunteering is as good at keeping you mentally sharp and physically healthy as a daily dose of vitamins or exercise."
As a person with several years volunteering experience, I can personally vouch for how rewarding voluntary work can be.
I may not get paid but, unlike some jobs I've had, I've never felt taken for granted. Quite the contrary! Managers welcome me with open arms, make time for me, and seek my opinions.
I can also honestly say that I can't ever remember leaving a voluntary shift feeling worse than when I arrived! In fact, for someone like me who battles depression, I can say voluntary work has been a life saver!
Volunteering for WHISC has been no different. It is the highlight of my week and I always leave on a high, knowing I've made a valuable contribution and been appreciated for it.
So, if you teach a relaxation or exercise class, you may like to know WHISC are seeking volunteers to lead classes in the late afternoons/early evenings.
WHISC aim to provide the classes for women of all walks of life – not just the well-off – so the classes are mostly free or very cheap.
WHISC are also open to any suggestions for classes that help women to exercise, relax and explore ideas.
So if you teach an exercise or relaxation class and are willing to give an hour of your time, WHISC would love to hear from you.
There are more rewards in life than money!

It's been a lot longer of a road to 1.0.5 than I ever expected, but well worth it in the end. My sincerest gratitude to the beta team that worked with me on this release. Without them, the level of quality achieved in this release wouldn't be possible.
You can get the update using Shopp's built-in auto-update system. Or if that fails you, you can always download updates using the download link available in your original purchase receipt. Login to your account to lookup your past orders. When upgrading manually, be sure to deactivate Shopp in your WordPress install first, upload and replace all files, then re-activate Shopp.
If there is one word to describe everything happening in 1.0.5 it's polish. There's a lot going on in 1.0.5. New features and enhancements have been included to fill out missing functionality. A ton of refinements both functionally, but also in architecture and organization make this version the most efficient yet.
Here are the highlights of what's new in this release:
- Customer-defined donation amounts (variable donations)
- Date-based order filters
- Purchase log downloads in Tab, CSV and Microsoft Excel formats
- Printable orders using your receipt template
- Duplicate products feature
- New customizable administrative user interfaces for WordPress 2.7+
- Compatibility with WordPress 2.8
- Database and query optimizations for faster response and better scaling across very large catalogs
- New tags and tag options to make the template API even more powerful
- New error logging and notification system
- Product and category editing "workflows" feature – you have to use it to believe it
- Fixes for bugs in version 1.0.4 including: hidden empty categories in the admin, broken category product-templates, enhanced permalink implementation for better SEO, catalog page titles fix, subcategory tag issues, broken Google Checkout callback generator
The biggest improvement by far is the new administrative interfaces for the product, category and promotion editors that take advantage of the new user interface customization capabilities that were introduced with the WordPress 2.7 releases. You can now collapse panels you don't need, drag them around to re-organize for your editing process and even remove panels you don't use at all.
All in all, this release represents some subtle but significant steps forward in making Shopp an even more robust and reliable platform for developing and running online stores. I hope you enjoy it! And please, feel free to leave your comments to let everyone know your favorite new feature or refinement.

* An Ohio man is facing numerous charges after being involved in a fight outside of a Darlington Township bar, according to a state police report.
The report said around 1 a.m. Aug. 16 Virginia R. Gibbs, no age or address given, attempted to break up a fight in the parking lot outside Rick's Place, 3551 Darlington Road, when Frank W. Pruskey III, 22, of 425 North Ave., Girard, hit her in the face with a beer bottle. Pruskey gave police a different account of what happened, and he also supplied Gibbs, who is under 21, with alcohol, the report said.
Prusky was charged with aggravated assault, criminal attempt at aggravated assault, simple assault, criminal attempt at simple assault, reckless endangerment, making false reports, disorderly conduct, harassment, public drunkenness and furnishing liquor to a minor.

Some drove more than 30 hours to get there. Hundreds more boarded buses or hopped on planes. No matter how they came to the Supreme Court on Monday, the purpose was the same: To humanize a debate they say has long been dehumanizing.
This was the moment for thousands of families, many of mixed immigration status, to present their own case outside the nation's highest court as the eight justices inside heard arguments over President Obama's deportation-relief proposals in United States v. Texas.
The multitude augmented their arguments with songs, signs and personal stories. Some were nationally recognized faces of the immigrant rights movement, including Gaby Pacheco, Jose Antonio Vargas, members of Congress, religious leaders and little Sophie Cruz, who became a mini-celebrity last fall when she presented Pope Francis with a letter during his trip to Washington.
[The girl who gave a letter to the pope]
Sophie and her mother, Zoyla Cruz, an undocumented immigrant from Mexico, were among the first people admitted to the court to watch the 90-minute arguments.
But many of the others who came for the hearing were ordinary folk, traveling from as far away as California and as close as Columbia Heights.
"Whatever they decide, it will impact my life," said Marly Arevalo, a community college student who lives in Prince George's County.
She arrived in the United State seven years ago from Guatemala, crossing the border without permission. If the justices uphold the president's executive action, she would be eligible for the extension of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.
Arevalo was one of about 100 people who arrived before sunrise to secure a ticket to enter the courtroom. Inside, she said she grew nervous as lawyers representing Texas and the other 26 states challenging the programs laid out their arguments.
"They were forceful and clear," she said. "I felt that the justices may have been convinced and were doubtful. And that worried me."
[Court majority appears elusive for Obama immigration program]
Those outside the court were far more optimistic, believing their crusade is morally imperative, as well as legally justifiable.
Jeannette Vizguerra of Colorado camped out Sunday night as temperatures dipped into the 40s, joined by her son and about 25 other mothers from a group that had formed on social media and called itself Dreamers, Mothers in Action.
The group set up banners, displaying shoes donated by people who had crossed the U.S.-Mexico border. Inside the shoes, they placed small American flags, held in place with crumpled paper towels.
Organizer Lenka Mendoza led a vigil Sunday afternoon, praying aloud and holding photos of the justices. Others held signs with messages such as "Families have no borders" and "Supreme Court, show me justice."
"Equal justice under the law," Mendoza said, gazing up at that inscription engraved onto the face of the Supreme Court. "That is what we are looking for."
Nearby, the Tea Party Patriots staked out a spot and set up a lectern for their own event, a news conference featuring four members of Congress that was to focus on the court vacancy created by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia.
Field organizer Gregg Cummings said the group is deeply opposed to extending deportation relief to those who have entered the United States illegally.
"We are a nation of laws. We cannot be the world's playground," Cummings, of Iowa, said. "A nation without borders is no longer a nation."
[Court decision will resonate in Los Angeles, immigration epicenter]
The group of women from Dreamers, Mothers in Action came from more than two dozen states, organizers said. All would be eligible for Obama's Deferred Action for Parents of Americans program if the court allows it to go forward.
They had been fasting since Friday, had not showered and were exhausted.
But as the crowd swelled Monday morning, ready to listen to Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-Tex.) and other speakers, the mothers held onto their section of sidewalk. Wearing matching hot-pink shirts, they became one of the most visible groups at a rally that had suddenly swelled to at least 2,000 people.
Vizguerra, the Colorado mother, danced the steps of "el jarabe tapatio," better known as the Mexican hat dance, when a mariachi band began playing.
She also listened carefully as a cavalcade of speakers whipped up the crowd in a raucous "Si se puede!"
"Our job here is to make sure they see the needs of our families," said Vizguerra, who is facing final deportation orders that would separate her from her husband and children. "I am a woman of faith and I have hope. If it doesn't happen, the struggle will continue."

Here are the plant-based products I trust!
For more info on the amazing plant-based products our family trusts, visit my wellness site called Pure & Lovely.
Studies have shown that the average household contains approximately 62 known toxic chemicals due to products we bring into our home! That's at least 62 toxins we don't need in our home or in our bodies. As a result of those toxins, people can and do get sick. It's horrible, but true. Fortunately we don't have to bring those types of products in our home.
We don't have to use scented chemicals that will make us sick. We don't have to be fooled by pretty labels or even statements that mislead us to believe something is natural when it isn't.
In spite of many things I did to stay well, I am actually one of those people who got sick (you can read my health story here). Fortunately I'm OK now, but I had symptoms of toxic chemical overload including hypothyroidism. Watching my health deteriorate started me on a quest to find a better way, before it was too late to turn back. Once I started learning how to research what was actually in the products we had in our home, I was in shock. Don't take my word for it, you can find out more on how to research toxic chemicals in your home here.
There are known carcinogens, allergens, endocrine and hormone disrupters listed as ingredients in commonly used household and personal care products. They are cleverly marketed to us and even labeled natural for our family when they aren't safe at all.
If those pretty products lining your shelves are filled with ingredients that are potentially or even known to be harmful for your family, they aren't worth it. Trust me on that.
Natural Plant-Based Products
I began looking for products that were plant-based, truly natural and DIY alternatives to the products that used to be in my cabinets. I refused to continue to invest in products that were not good for our family.
That led our family to research, discover and then get a wholesale membership with Young Living.
We've trusted their products for our family for over four years now. We get a monthly wellness box with household products (their plant-based Thieves household cleaner is awesome and pretty much all I use now for cleaning everything!) and personal care supplies. I no longer buy junk from the store, I just stock up monthly on plant-based products that are shipped right to me in my wellness box. It's a huge time-saver and I love all of the products, so it's a win win for me!
I LOVE Young Living's dedication to wellness through extensive research and responsible farming practices. I love buying products that not only clean our home, but that are an investment in the WELLNESS of our family.
From immune system to emotional and hormonal support to sleep and wellness, our home has changed dramatically since finding Young Living.
We FEEL so much better now that we are no longer adding toxic sludge to our home or bodies. Our home smells amazing, better than ever, but it smells CLEAN like nature intended. No toxic scents.
Best of all, it's not just about how the products smell. We enjoy incredible health benefits from pure therapeutic grade essential oils and products for skincare, cleaning and health. I am confident that you'll love Young Living and their products, too.
I trust Young Living because of their commitment and faithfulness to product purity and quality. Young Living has been the world's leader in the industry for over 25 years, so their experience with essential oil products is the best out there. To offer the most pure and natural products to your family, they use responsible farming practices on 50 year organic soil. Their "seed to seal promise" of quality assures that their products are created with care.
To get the wholesale membership and the products you'll need to make healthy changes in your home, start with a Premium Starter Kit.
All of the details are listed below.
It not only gives you a GREAT selection of products to begin with, but you'll get wholesale products going forward. There's no fees, tricks or gimmicks, I promise! Just great products.
You can start with a kit with 11 essential oils (which I recommend highly! I use and LOVE them for so many purposes every day!!), plus you'll get a diffuser and a free packet of the Thieves Household Cleaner to make a full bottle or two of cleaner.
Or grab a Thieves kit which offers incredible household and personal products including bottles of Thieves household cleaner concentrate .
The premium kit has all of the essentials you need to begin to turn to natural and effective support for your day to day needs. No more impulse buying based on a sale, scent or pretty label and inadvertently bringing home toxic chemicals! You'll save money but best of all, you'll be investing in wellness! You'll feel so much better better knowing your home is a healthier place.
At 50% off what these products would cost individually and wholesale prices going forward, too, the kit is the most economical and efficient way to ditch the chemicals and change your home for good.
Natural Plant-Based Products Change How You Live
I promise this kit will change everything about how you live. Your home will smell amazing, not to worry, but you will learn how to scent it naturally. You will never look at or smell products the same way again. In fact, you'll never want to smell a toxic chemical again once you know what truly clean smells like.
It's not just about the products, we want you to feel well! Our community is here to make sure you feel empowered and equipped to make life changes for the better.
What type of product do you need the most? Email me at email@example.com if I can help you get started with the right kit or products.
In fact, I'll PERSONALLY send you $25 cash back on your Premium Starter kit order placed with my member number once you receive your kit. Just email me after you order to tell me you saw it in this post on natural products. This deal cannot be combined with any other offers.
Ready to change your life for good?
1. Grab your Premium Starter Kit here.
In the essential oils kit you'll get a free packet of Thieves household cleaner concentrate (which will make you a full sized bottle or two of cleaner) 11 essential oils, a high quality diffuser, a wholesale membership and more! It's truly the best way to get started.
Or choose the Thieves Premium kit for household products. Scroll down for details and a graphic for what is in that kit!!
Make sure the number 3731456 appears in both the "Sponsor ID" and the "Enroller" fields so you'll be invited into my educational community called The Dwell Well Collective. You're invited to join us when you get your starter kit!
2. Select member (not retail). A "member" is just like signing up to order from Amazon or Costco. It's simply a way to get the best prices and benefits! There are no strings attached, never any membership fees, no required auto shipments, no further obligation, and no selling!
3. Choose your diffuser If you are choosing the essential oils kit, you'll also get a diffuser. The oils are the same in each kit, scroll below to see a graphic with the diffuser choices).
All of Young Living's diffusers are high quality, so you can't go wrong! The Desert Mist is a favorite. It is so versatile, making it a perfect choice for just about everyone, including homes with families. It's also an easy diffuser to take to work or to set up in the classroom. The Rainstone and the Aria are also popular. Both come with a remote and add a touch of style to your decor, too. Message or email me if you have questions! pureandlovelyco {at} gmail {dot} com.
4. Set up your optional wellness box called Essential Rewards. Essential Rewards empowers you for a lifestyle of wellness. It's an optional and totally customizable monthly auto-ship rewards program that gives you points back on your orders, free oils and more.
It's a wellness box, and you choose the products each month (you can even include household necessities, cleaning products, cosmetics and supplements so you can easily ditch all the toxic stuff!). You can also get FREE SHIPPING with the YL-Go program, which is basically just like how you shop at amazon with free shipping (one yearly fee for shipping all year).
You can join Essential Rewards when you get your kit (which I recommend), or down the road if you'd prefer, and you can cancel anytime. I've found that most people who are serious about creating a non-toxic home and lifestyle like myself definitely want to be on Essential Rewards. It really makes most sense!
Here are just a few of my favorite products you could add through your first Essential Rewards order:
Thieves Household Cleaner (it's truly the best cleaner out there. It is a concentrate and you only need one capful with water to make an entire bottle of cleaner! So, it will last a really long time.) You will get a free packet of Thieves cleaner in your kit so you can try it out first and see what you think!
Other products you could put in your Essential Rewards box: Cedarwood essential oil (amazing for sleep), Orange essential oil (great with other oils in your diffuser!), NingXia Red antioxidant drink (you only drink an ounce or two a day but it's incredible!), Peace & Calming essential oil (need I say more?), Thieves Lozenges (a must), Lavender lotion, Coconut Lime Body Butter (you'll want to sniff it all day) Orange Blossom facial cleanser (divine and no toxic junk!), or grapefruit lip balm (the best lip balm I've ever found).
5. Complete the sign up information. You can elect to sign up with no social security number, but it's totally secure to add it in. This simply allows you to receive bonuses in case you have friends who sign up with your member number. NO selling or business required.
6. Save your login and PIN information in a safe place for future orders or accessing account info.
You're all set! I'll send you a welcome email with info on groups and classes, and reference material in the mail.
When you order your starter kit, I invite you to my optional private Facebook group. I'd love to have you join us, we're having a blast learning together, supporting each other and getting healthier, too. I love to offer giveaways and offer my team happy mail from time to time, too.
The other great thing about the starter kits, besides the wholesale prices on the products in the kit and any you want going forward is there is no further obligation, you won't receive an auto shipment and there are no fees.
These products are truly life-changing and the incredible community you'll become a part of will support you every step of the way.
As a member, you'll also gain access to wholesale prices on other great products (I love the orange blossom botanical face wash and you only need a teeny drip so it lasts a long time, ART facial products, lip balms, NingXia Red antioxidant drink is amazing, lavender lotion, and so much more).
Besides the essential oil starter kit, Young Living offers the Thieves® Premium Starter Kit. You'll find the list of products in the graphic above.
The Thieves premium starter kit is an amazing value on a set of Young Living's popular household and personal products such as their proprietary blend Thieves® cleaners, hand purifiers, toothpaste and hand soaps. They all work so well and smell amazing. I use the Thieves Household cleaner for seriously EVERYTHING in my home. It's a concentrate, so you only use a capful to make an entire spray bottle of cleaner (which amounts to under a dollar per spray bottle of cleaner!).

You can select this kit as an alternative or in addition to the essential oil starter kit, using the instructions above. There are no fees and no further obligations as a wholesale member. It's easy to simply order the products you want any time.

Version 0.0.6
Require CSV/TSV files directly in Browserify
When bundling an app using Browserify, it's often convenient to be able to include your .csv (comma-delimited) or .tsv (tab-delimited) files just as you would .json files (which Node natively understands). This small script allows you to
require() them directly.
npm install node-csvify
Simply require your data files as you might anything else:
var states = require('./states.csv');
var countries = require('./countries.tsv');
Then, when running browserify, pass this module as a transformation on the command line.
browserify -t node-csvify script.js > bundle.js
Alternatively, you can specify this module as a transformation in your
package.json file:
"browserify": {
"transform": ["node-csvify"]
By doing so, you can include .csv or .tsv files without including the annoying
-t node-csvify every time you run browserify.
How it works
Becomes this:
[ { first: 'Chris', last: 'Wilson' },
{ first: 'Mike', last: 'Bostock' },
{ first: 'Miles', last: 'Davis' } ]
Reducing file size
By default, this transformation converts the delimited files to JSON before passing them back to browserify. For large CSV files, this can greatly reduce the size, since the headers are now repeated for each record. (In the small example above, the CSV file is about 50 bytes, which the JSON verision is over 100 bytes.) While this sort of redundancy can be compressed very efficiently by gzip compression, you may still encounter instances where you want your data passed to its final destination as a compact string. You then assume responsibility for unpacking that string into a useful data format for your application.
There is no good way to pass arguments to transformations from the code itself. Instead, if you want this "no JSON" mode, you have to specify this in the
package.json file:
"browserify": {
"transform": ["node-csvify"],
"transform-options": {
"node-csvify": "nojson"
In "nojson" mode, the above example would pass a string to the application with the value:
Version history
- v0.0.6: Updated dependencies
- v0.0.3: Extracted D3's dsv parsing and removed library as a dependency

One (or Two) of a Kind Lil '58

Comprising twin bolt on maple necks in 6 string and 12 string format, the body is mahogany with a …Read More

Healthcare and Sales & Use Taxes
Huge sales and use tax refunds exist in the Healthcare Industry. Why? Because the taxability of medical products represents one of the single most difficult sales and use tax compliance areas, especially in California. The State of California's aggressive audits of medical vendors, years of inconsistent policies and changing administration, coupled with increased complexity of medical products and advances in technology have all contributed to greater and greater compliance challenges.
Downey, Smith & Fier can help, whether you are:
Sales and use taxes, when applicable, adds between 7% and 10.5% to the gross cost of medical products or supplies. When an exemption or exclusion is identified or sustained, the savings directly impact your company's bottom line and reduce costs prospectively. Sales and use taxes when paid in error may be recovered, generally within three years of the payment of such taxes.

Giving Back to the Community is Importantby admin
I rarely get upset, but when I do, I always take action. That is just what I did when I was unhappy about a rate increase in my electricity bill. I know that prices can fluctuate, but I also know that I don't have to put up with it because of where I live. I am in Texas, and we have deregulation here. That is why I went to a website that said to click here for better rates. When I went to the site, I was really happy with what I saw.
On that site, all the different electricity companies were listed that are able to serve the area that I live in. Read the rest of this entry »

CPC 8-Channel Multipurpose Coil
The CPC 8-Channel Multipurpose Coil enables generating high definition pictures of many body regions. Therefore, this coil can replace many conventional coils.
The coil serves to image smaller regions: Extremities, joints, as well as skull, jaw joint and carotids can be examined. Thanks to our special positioning devices, the coil can be used
for pediatrics or motion studies in orthopedics.
|CPC 8-Channel Multipurpose Coil 1.5T for SIEMENS Scanner
|CPC 8-Channel Multipurpose Coil 3T for SIEMENS Scanner
NEW – Y-cable model
In order to satisfy demands from our customers for a very flexible design of the MR measurement set-up for the patient, we at NORAS developed a special
Y-junction box for the CPC 8-Channel Multipurpose Coil. This new concept efficiently supports uni-lateral examinations.
Through the use of our Y-junction box both coil halves are now connected to just one plug position in the scanner.
|CPC 8Ch Multipurpose Coil 1.5T, Y-cable
|P/N: on request
|CPC 8Ch Multipurpose Coil 3T, Y-cable
|P/N: on request
Advantages of the CPC 8-Ch Multipurpose Coil for Diagnostic Imaging
The optimized coil element size and positioning result in:
- High signal gain based on small-sized coil elements (diameter of only 5 cm) with minimum separation between the receive loops
- Exceptional high resolution of small body regions with reduced scan duration
- Application for diagnostics in orthopedics, in pediatrics and in veterinary medicine
- Parallel Imaging and double-sided comparison of symmetrical organs, such as ears and eyes
The special design of the coil fixations enables:
- Free positioning of the coil halves in three dimensions, which simplifies examination of patients with reduced mobility, e.g. rheumatic patients
- Flexible imaging of joints in bent or stretched position
- Improved positioning and fixation of joints due to solid coil housing
- Provision of movement studies for joints with different bending angles
- Application of special foam-based positioning units for fixation of coils in accordance with requirements of the MR-personnel
- Use of a special flex-clamp in connection with vacuum positioning mats for immobilization of the body part under investigation
Technical Specifications
|Field Strength:
|8 (2x4)
|Penetration of tissue:
|13 cm
|18 kg
|Shipping Weight:
|11 kg
|Cable Length:
|80 cm
|ca. 40 cm x 35 cm x 30 cm
|The CPC 8-Channel Multipurpose Coil is compatible with most Siemens MR-scanners. Under software version VB19, the CPC coil can be combined with other coils from Siemens. This way, the Spine-coil can remain in the scanner table. Furthermore, other Siemens flex-coils can be combined with the CPC 8-Channel Multipurpose Coil for increasing the examination area and, thus, better orientation in the patient's anatomy.
NORAS Vacuum Immobilization Mats
Various Vacuum Immobilization Mats, used for stable immobilization of the body parts, can be ordered as accessories for CPC 8-Channel Multipurpose Coil. The NORAS Vacuum Immobilization Mats are easy to handle and, thanks to its chamber system, always ensure stable immobilization of the patient in the MRI unit. The mats are compatible with all magnetic resonance imaging units and do not cause any artefacts. Our mats are available in many different sizes.
The Vacuum Immobilization Mat is filled with a highquality micro-granulate which cannot slip and therefore also permits fixation in a vertical position. The form, which is simultaneously compact and comfortable, offers a very high lateral and longitudinal stability. The Vacuum Immobilization Mat can be used as a fixation support for the examination of feet, ankle, knee , wrist, elbow, head and small children. Just let us know!
NORAS knee and ankle joint positioning devices
Specially designed knee and ankle joint positioning devices can be developed per your request with short lead times. The coil is placed in the cavities and can be easily fitted to the joint. These positioning devices can also be developed with your assistance and conceptions. Just let us know.

The passage of the Javits-Wagner-O'Day Act means that the U.S. AbilityOne Commission has to designate certain nonprofit organizations as CNAs (central nonprofit organizations), and those who receive that merit are then tasked with helping to organize and deliver the government's orders of Procurement List services and products. The National Institute for the Blind and SourceAmerica have been the chosen elite because of their quality work and the ability to meet these needs and best service the blind in this regard. They work closely to determine which government personnel products and services are best suited for provision by local agencies by visiting sites.
An example of some of these upper echelon programs that have been tailored to those blind and with disabilities is the U.S. Army Battle Dress Uniform manufacturing contract as well as the Environmental Protection Agency's call center service contract which helps to provide consumers with the necessary information regarding any questions they may have about lead and its harmful effects. NIB is always looking to further advance their association with helpful agencies that help with everything from childhood intervention, adult literacy, or low vision examinations and aids. Other agencies that they cooperate with might help with advancing literacy in Braille, nutritional services, physical therapy, and so much more. Overall, more than 550 of these agencies work with the AbilityOne program to do just that.
No longer does blindness or similar struggles have to be a hurdle that seems impossible to overcome. Those who are willing and motivated can easily work with AbilityOne and the NIB to find their place in today's fast-paced industries. It is always great to see people being able to help each other while at the same time being able to procure meaningful employment.
