The first mixed drink I ever had was a Gin & Tonic. It was Bombay Sapphire, either Canada Dry or Schweppes tonic and lime wedge. It was the only mixed drink I knew for a long time. Back then, I mainly drank wine that would make me cringe today.
The Gin & Tonic was my mixed drink of choice until I discovered Whiskey & Ginger Ale, which I drank for the next 8 years. I'd have a G&T once a year in the afternoon of that first day that felt like Spring. It was okay, but eventually, even that stopped. I wanted it, but I started hating the taste and texture of tonic. To be blunt, it was syrupy and made me phlegmy. It was worse from the speedgun in bars than from a fresh bottle. I was turned off.
Yesterday, I read this article. I've known about the new generation of tonic waters for a few years, but I was so turned off previously, I haven't had any interest in trying them. Today in the grocery store I saw the Fevertree Tonic on the shelf and and decided it was time to give the Gin & Tonic another chance.
Gin & Tonic (recipe from Gary Regan's Joy of Mixology)
2oz gin
3oz tonic water
Combine in a rocks or highball glass over ice.
Garnish with a lime wedge.
You know what? It's a different drink than I remember. It's crisper and cleaner and frankly, I'm not phlegmy. Will I drink these often? Probably not. But now that I know that there are decent tonic waters available, I'm more likely to drink cocktails with that call for tonic. Adding a new ingredient to my bar arsenal is always good thing.
(Barsenal? Hmm. Maybe I should change the blog's title.)
UPDATE: If you can find it, I recommend Fentimans tonic water. It has a unique flavor profile due to the addition of lemongrass and kinda makes me want to throw rocks at other tonics.

Buying health insurance for singles may not be high on your list of things to do, but you might want to make it a priority. Not only can health cover help you avoid tax liabilities, but you can also get…
The Difference Between Gold and Platinum Credit Cards
Most banks that offer gold and platinum cards provide the platinum card as an upgrade to the gold counterpart.
With a platinum card, you often receive many of the same benefits and features as you would with a gold card. However, these features usually offer more value with platinum cards.
There are often a wider variety of features with a platinum card. Where a gold card might include 20 features, a platinum card could include 40 or more.
Of course, these benefits come with a downside. Platinum cards cost more and you must earn a certain level of income to qualify.
Design preferences: use green checks for the "pros" column, and red X's for the "cons."
Gold Card
A gold card serves as the middle ground between a bank's highest and lowest options. Banks design gold cards to attract middle-class customers with medium incomes through their annual fees, credit limit, and interest rates.
You can expect to pay around $100 to $200 a year for a gold card, though some cards may charge above or below this amount. Interest rates are usually below 20%.
The features of gold cards vary substantially but usually offer some kind of point reward system, travel perks, and introductory promotion.
Platinum cards provide these benefits as well but to a greater extent.
Platinum Card
Platinum cards are a step above gold cards. One key difference between gold and platinum credit card offerings is their annual fee.
The fee for a platinum card is drastically higher than that of a gold card. The price difference is reflected in the benefits a platinum card offers.
You'll receive more features, higher credit limits, more point rewards, and more valuable services with a platinum card.
The interest rate is higher with a platinum card as well. Banks design these cards to appeal to high-income borrowers who will likely pay their balance every month.
Things to Consider
Income and expense level aren't the only elements to consider before deciding between a gold or platinum card. Here are some of the other factors to think about before starting your application.
Will You Qualify?
Another difference between gold and platinum credit cards is the application criteria. Your income and credit score determine whether or not you'll qualify for a gold or platinum card.
Gold cards do look for applicants with good credit, but the requirements aren't as high as for platinum cards.
Platinum cards require both a higher income and a higher credit score than gold cards. The requirements are more stringent, so it may be more difficult to get approved.
If your credit card application is denied, it may appear on your credit report. If you don't think you're likely to be approved, it's not a good idea to submit an application 'just to see what happens'.
Do Benefits Outweigh the Cost?
The benefits associated with a platinum card come with a trade off: an annual fee that is much higher than that of a gold card.
If you can afford the card, the benefits may be worth the cost for you. The cost of travel insurance, concierge, and high reward points make the annual cost minimal in comparison.
However, not everyone will get the most out of these features and services. If you don't travel very often, for instance, it's unlikely you'll experience all the benefits a platinum card has to offer.
Someone who doesn't use the platinum card benefits may ultimately lose money on their annual fee.
You can pay your bills on time and never accrue interest, but if you don't use the benefits of a platinum card then you may be better off with a gold card or a standard credit card.
Self Control
Consider your level of self-control when comparing the difference between gold and platinum credit cards. Credit limit is a key difference between gold and platinum credit cards, and it can be a path to debt if you spend more than you have.
A platinum card could come with a credit limit of around $20,000 to $30,000. Spending this amount month after month can add up, especially when you consider the high interest rate associated with platinum cards.
Consider a gold or standard credit card if you have a history of overspending. A high credit limit isn't an advantage if you aren't able to make the repayments on time.
Which Should I Choose?
Most banks offer both gold and platinum cards, so there are plenty to choose from. In the end, it comes down to whether or not you think the benefits of a platinum card outweigh the higher annual cost.
If you use all of the available benefits of your platinum card, you could get your money's worth at the end of the year. If not, it might be worth getting a gold card instead, as they still offer more benefits than a standard card.
Whether you're on the market for a gold or platinum card, it's worth comparing your options before you apply.
Banks have different features, benefits, credit limits, promotions and annual fees. You may value one set of benefits over another, so take a look at what your options are!

Freedom of Entry will be a piece of Ararat history
Posted Tuesday 5 June, 05:05pm
Details have been finalised for the arrival of the crew from HMAS Ararat II and the Freedom of Entry ceremony which will form the centrepiece of the historic visit.
A procession of approximately 25 crew members will take place through Ararat on Saturday, June 16 with a special performance from the Australian Navy Band one of the many highlights.
The Edith Cavell Reserve will be the starting point of the march from 1.30pm, which will make its way down Barkly Street and past the War Memorial, concluding at the Ararat RSL at approximately 2pm.
The Ararat Rural City Council Mayor will play an important part in the ceremony, required to grant the crew Freedom of Entry during the procession – a tradition dating back to mediaeval times.
Ararat Rural City Council Acting Mayor, Cr Gwenda Allgood said granting permission to a body of armed men and women to enter a city was a mark of trust and confidence.
"This is a long held tradition of the armed services in our country," Cr Allgood said.
"The granting of Freedom of Entry is the highest accolade a city can bestow upon a group from the army or navy and it's not something that is readily won or lightly given today more than it was centuries ago.
"There will be a ceremonial scroll presented to the Commanding Officer of HMAS Ararat II, Lieutenant Fiona Simmonds in the middle of Barkly Street as well as lots of pomp and ceremony and great music from the Australian Navy band.
"This is a rare opportunity to see a Freedom of Entry ceremony and a piece of Ararat history, which I encourage our community to come along and support."
Barkly Street from Vincent St to Queen St, and in Queen Street from Barkly St to High St will be closed to traffic for approximately one and a half hours on the day.
The rest of Barkly Street will remain open (similar to during the Anzac Day parade) with a rolling road closure from View Point to Vincent Street, as the Northern Grampians Highway Patrol escort the front and back of the procession.

Veikkaus: Interim report Q2/2018: Veikkaus operates in a dynamic environment
in Lottery
President and CEO Olli Sarekoski: "Veikkaus is preparing for large-scale changes in the coming years. The drastic changes in the operating environment, the ever-accelerating international competition, and our planned shift towards comprehensive identification on decentralised slot machines require us to carry out special measures and development work.
Interim report Q2/2018: Veikkaus operates in a dynamic environment
Julkaistu 28.08.2018 15:24
- Turnover EUR 1 587.2 million (-0.3%).
- Profit EUR 505.5 million (+2.5%).
- 57.1% of the turnover came from the POS and 42.9% from the digital channels.
- According to preliminary analyses, the game restriction concept covering online gaming has helped to prevent problem gambling successfully.
- The turnover of Lucky Games (EUR 610.8 million) increased by 5.6 percent over the previous year. The large jackpots and the 90-million-euro prize landed in Loimaa, Finland, boosted the sales of Eurojackpot (EUR 159.4 million, +37.5%).
- 45.1% of the gaming took place identified (+4.5 percentage points).
President and CEO Olli Sarekoski:
"Veikkaus is preparing for large-scale changes in the coming years. The drastic changes in the operating environment, the ever-accelerating international competition, and our planned shift towards comprehensive identification on decentralised slot machines require us to carry out special measures and development work.
In 2018, we are revising our strategy to secure our competitiveness in the upcoming future changes in the operating environment and the rapidly accelerating competition. The competition over customers is toughest in the digital channels; therefor success in digital business will be one of the cornerstones of the revised strategy. The total gambling market in Finland amounted to an estimated EUR 981 million (+1.9%) in terms of GGR in the period between January and June. Veikkaus' share of the total market was ca. 89 percent.
The prevention of gambling problems is important to Veikkaus, and we take a positive stand towards the Ministry of the Interior bill on the transition to comprehensive identification on decentralised slot machines from the beginning of 2021 onwards.The bill concerning the amendment of the Lotteries Act was submitted for consultation at the end of June. However, the transition period given in the bill does entail a certain risk to the funding of the beneficiaries.According to our estimates, moving to comprehensive identification on decentralised slot machines will reduce gaming proceeds, depending on the gaming restriction concept. The impacts of the different proposed implementation options on the gaming revenue would amount to 78–170 million euros in the year 2021 according to our estimates. In addition to this, the lottery tax and our partners' retailer commissions would be affected significantly.In order to minimise the negative impacts, it is of primary importance that we can rapidly adopt effective means of promoting identified gaming and secure our opportunities to develop gaming operations in digital business.
At the end of last year we launched a gaming restriction concept covering online gaming, which is unique even in the international setting. The transition period of adopting the concept ended at the end of March. According to our preliminary estimates, the gaming and money transfer limits have helped us prevent problem gambling and protect high-risk gamblers. The gaming restriction concept reduced the growth of the GGR in Veikkaus' digital channel by ca. EUR 10–15 million during the first six months of the year.In the future it will be important to monitor whether the restriction concept affects the gambling problems as intended, and we will also need to make use of our increasing understanding whilst developing the tools of gaming control further.
During the second quarter of the year, both Lotto and Eurojackpot boasted exceptionally large jackpots. Eurojackpot, in particular, increased in popularity during the jackpot rollover, which reached 90 million euros in May and June, as well as the 90-million-euro prize that was landed in Loimaa, Finland, in the spring."

Eating red hot chili peppers found to reduce death by 13%.
Researchers from the University of Vermont looked at data of over 16,000 Americans and found a 13% lower mortality in those who ate red hot chili peppers, especially when it came to heart disease and stroke. This study was published in the medical journal PLoS ONE.
This is not the first time hot and spicy food has been found to decrease mortality. In December, researchers from Germany found Capsaicin, which gives food their fiery kick, was found to inhibit tumor growth, specifically breast cancer.
In 2015 a study published in the British Medical Journal found those who ate spicy food more than 1 -2 times a week were 14% less likely to die than those who ate spicy food less than once a week.
Both teams of researchers have been looking at how Capsaicin affects Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) channels, that mediate how we perceive taste, pressure and vision.
In this study, they found that those who ate a diet high in red hot chili peppers were "younger, male, white, Mexican-American, married, and to smoke cigarettes, drink alcohol, and consume more vegetables and meats … had lower HDL-cholesterol, lower income, and less education." Lower HDL and smoking could increase one's heart disease risk so the fact that they had lower mortality due to this dietary addition was significant.
Now diets high in spicy food could worsen one's heartburn and Gastroesophageal reflux disease and concerns have been raised with spicy food and colon cancer. But more evidence appears to surface that it lowers cancer risk.
But if capsaicin continues to show researchers that it improves cardiovascular health, obesity, and cancer risk, hot chili peppers may become our new superfood.

Re: "Blackface, Black Issues And White Newsrooms", by Ewart Walters
As painful as it was to be reminded by the photo of Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, in Blackface, we must also try to fully understand the Rastaman's observation, as noted by guest writer, Ewart Walters: "Hairy face don't make hairy heart."
There are lessons to be learned, even in negative and painful situations. As thinking people, let us not let political leaders (in this particular instance, Conservative Leader, Andrew Scheer) try to gain leverage, by using what is a painful issue and sight for many, to distract from issues that have been overlooked for years.
We, as a community, must remind ourselves that we are an intelligent people and that "Success runs in our race".
We must mobilize and demand [not go cap in hand] of ALL our politicians, equalities and actions that will make a difference in the lives of people in our communities who need basic and immediate supports and resources – for example, more apprenticeship opportunities; more mentoring; more sustainable employment for college/university graduates, who continue to languish on the fringes in low-paying, part-time jobs or worst, being unemployed.
We must get involved. We must advocate. We must let our voices be heard. We must make our VOTES count!

Study finds foster children being flogged
The Study of the Foster Care Programme in Jamaica has found that many foster parents are hitting their charges.
But the affected children have accepted the punishment as normal especially since other children in their household were also being beaten.
The Convention on the Rights of the Child discourages all physical punishment.
However, many children do not know of their rights under the Convention or the Child Care and Protection Act.
It's not clear how many of the children who are being beaten in foster homes are among those found to be having problems at school.
Of the 217 foster children surveyed, 38 per cent were involved in fights and quarrels with friends while 37 per cent cannot handle the schoolwork.
Only one-fifth of the children were doing well in school.
The study also found that the majority of foster parents are motivated to help their benefactors because of their love for children.
However it said many foster parents were uneasy because they felt the biological parents could come for their children at anytime.

How the Syrian Crisis Will End." In that piece, editor in chief Gerald Flurry boldly forecast that the war would result in this change: A German-led Europe will replace Iran as being the dominant outside force in Syria.
Many historians believe World War I began as a trade war. In The Ascent of Money, Niall Ferguson wrote: "It has recently been suggested that [World War I] should be understood as a kind of backlash against globalization, heralded by rising tariffs and immigration restrictions in the decade before 1914 …."
Does that sound familiar?
A Euro-Asian 'Mart of Nations'!
The Prophet Isaiah forecast a massive global trade network in the end time and said it would revolve around a German-led European superstate. You can study this prophecy in Isaiah 22 and 23. In Isaiah 23:1, China is called by its ancient name, Chittim. The same verse calls the German-dominated European combine Tyre, which was a major economic power extant at the time the prophecy was written.
In this prophecy, the end-time Tyre is shown to be in a trade relationship with China and other Asian peoples. The mention of the sea (verses 2, 4, 11), oceans ("great waters," verse 3), ships (verses 1 and 14), and seaborne merchant traffic (verse 8) indicates this is a trade alliance. Verse 3 calls this a "mart of nations." Mart means emporium, trade or merchandise. Verse 13 mentions Italy (Chaldea). Italy is here depicted in association with Germany, whose biblical identity is Assyria, or Asshur.
Clearly, this is a prophecy about an end-time trade axis between Europe and Asia!
Notice too: America and Britain are not part of this "mart of nations." Why not? Because this trade emporium is a rival of the U.S. and Britain. It is infused with strong anti-American and anti-British sentiment. This "mart of nations" exists toCOMPETE WITHAmerica and Britain!
Trumpet editor in chief Gerald Flurry discusses this prophecy in his book Isaiah's End-time Vision: "[W]e believe there may be a brief alliance between the German-led Holy Roman Empire and certain Asian powers (Russia, China, Japan—the kings of the east)." This German-led global trade conglomerate will be a "DYNAMIC MARKET OF NATIONS," he states.
Mr. Flurry also warns that this temporary "mart of nations" is "going to besiege America, Britain and the Jewish nation." This warning comes from a specific prophecy in Ezekiel 5. Here, God warns that the cities of America will burn with fire caused by riots and mass civil unrest. Millions of Americans will die. This violence will be inflamed by an economic siege—TRADE WARS—inflicted by the resurrected Holy Roman Empire working in conjunction with China and other Eastern nations.
Consider these statements:
"The U.S. and other Israelite nations are surrounded or besieged by fierce and often unfair competition. … As the U.S. and Britain become less and less competitive worldwide, unemployment will steadily increase. … The United States and Britain are going to be left out in the cold as two gigantic trade blocs, Europe and Asia, mesh together and begin calling the shots in world commerce. These nations of Israel are going to be literally besieged—economically frozen out of world trade!" Ezekiel: The End-Time Prophet by Gerald Flurry (request a free copy).
Ezekiel also prophesied about this temporary Europe-Asia economic alliance. The end-time prophecy of Ezekiel 27 discusses a "merchant of the people for many isles." It foretells Germany trading with Middle East nations (verses 9-10), with Russia (verses 12-13), and with Japan (verse 14).
The Apostle John delivered a similar prophecy. The theme of Revelation 17 and 18 is the seventh and final resurrection of the Holy Roman Empire. Revelation 18:3 describes the demise of this superstate, stating that "the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies." This prophecy shows that for a brief period—just before the Second Coming of Jesus Christ—a German-led Holy Roman Empire will sit at the nucleus of world trade.
We have just noted three distinct biblical passages, written by three individuals at three different times, discussing exactly the same end-time event. How can you explain this incredible fact?
We have been warned! And not just by Isaiah, Ezekiel and John.
For decades, Herbert W. Armstrong warned that trade wars would precede World War IIIand the return of Christ. In 1968, he described how the beginning of World War III would be "ECONOMIC IN NATURE. We have shown how God prophesied a VIRTUAL TRADE WAR will get underway against the United States and Britain …."
Here is another warning, delivered in 1971. On this occasion Mr. Armstrong specifically addressed America's protectionist policies. "Either we start raising high tariff barriers against other countries, STARTING A TRADE WAR WHICH IN TIME WILL TRIGGER THE NUCLEAR WAR THAT WILL DESTROY US—or, American workers are going to have to meet the competition of the workers in other countries, by lowering living standards. Obviously American workers are not going to choose to do the latter. And if they don't—well, THE HANDWRITING IS ON OUR NATIONAL WALL" (Plain Truth, March 1971).
What a profoundly prescient statement. Mr. Armstrong foresaw the exact dilemma America faces today!
He did not use a crystal ball—he used Bible prophecy. And the Bible plainly shows that a nuclear World War III will be preceded by a global trade war.
In fact, Scripture is even more specific. It says that a German-dominated European power will temporarily align with China, Russia and other Asian powers to bring America down.
These prophecies are being fulfilled, dramatically, in detail, and astonishingly fast!

Were you at the SMB October event at the Willmar Public Library? Captain Jim Felt with the Willmar Police Department shared how the Police Department uses social media. Captain Felt, along with two other members of the Willmar PD, are in charge of managing the social accounts.
In his presentation, Captain Felt mentioned that it took them two years to get a social media policy established for the Police Department. It's a topic that I hear businesses discussing often, and I'm sure many of you have also encountered it. Social media brings with it an entire gamete of new concepts and ideas to address and trying to cover all topics can be tricky.
Jennifer Van Grove wrote this article in 2009 for Mashable. Social media has definitely evolved since 2009, but I think the takeaways are classic considerations. In the article, Kodak gets it right in by providing a policy that is simple and to-the-point. Intel created a policy with great advice on letting your audience remain authentic, and IBM furthers that by highlighting relationship building on social media.
All three companies highlight topics worthy to be addressed in a social policy and the article is a great resource for businesses that are looking to create or update their company's policy.

A walk around the area from the Monument to Kingsdown and returning via Ottey Bottom produced, of note, two Golden Plovers, two Stonechats, 65 Goldcrests, three Firecrests, two Ravens and a singing Corn Bunting.
On the sea were two Mallards, a Pintail, at least 55 Gannets in a feeding frenzy off Hope Point,
100 Mediterranean Gulls, 60 Common Gulls and 400 Kittiwakes.

Wildlife sightings from the Bockhill area. We are a small group of East Kent birders who have been enjoying wildlife in the St. Margaret's Bay and Kingsdown area of the White Cliffs since October 1994. Here you will find a record of the fauna and flora of this region of Kent.

6th November 2018
Reasonable numbers of Goldcrest were dotted around with 64 in the Bockhill area and a further 20 in Oldstairs. Three Firecrests were around the Paddock along with two at Oldstairs and five seen by Richard while walking the dog in Kingsdown. Chiffchaffs were seen at Oldstairs and the Gun Emplacement. A Jack Snipe was flushed from the clifftop, were there was a pair of stonechats. Overhead there were at last 17 Crossbills, 250 Starlings, a Brambliing and a few Redpolls. The family party of Brents remain in the field at Hope Point.

From 09:30 I stood at the Monument and had a few Redpolls, Siskins, Goldfinches and a single Crossbill moving overhead. At about 10:00 I met Richard who had walked from Kingsdown and after a chat he decided to walk back via the wood. I started to walk to the Paddock when I had a call from Richard that he had just had a Rough-legged Buzzard going out to sea. I rushed back to the car for the telescope and we scanned for the bird. By the time we did find it, the bird was going down channel and appeared to be halfway to France. Oh well perhaps the next rarity will be more co-operative.

We knew coral bleaching was a serious issue in the Great Barrier Reef, but the scope of just how widespread it was has been unclear — until now.
Extensive aerial surveys and dives have revealed that 93 percent of the world's largest reef has been devastated by coral bleaching. The culprit has been record-warm water driven by El Niño and climate change that has cooked the life out of corals.
"We've never seen anything like this scale of bleaching before. In the northern Great Barrier Reef, it's like 10 cyclones have come ashore all at once," Terry Hughes, who runs the ARC Center of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies, said in a press release.

Repent. Believe you are forgiven. Commit your life to your current wife.
I know of a guy who divorced his wife during a backslidden time in his Christian life. There was no biblical basis for this, except when he offered divorce, the wife felt she was free to accept since she was letting "the unbeliever depart" as per scripture. For his part, he remarried a couple of years later, but since then has recommitted his life to Christ and to the Bible. Now he knows his divorce was unbiblical and that he was never biblically eligible to remarry. He has indicated that this has had a great negative impact his current marriage, since he "feels like an adulterer" and believes he is one in God's eyes. This sounds like a tough one. He just wants to do the right thing. What should I tell him?

Electronically stored information (ESI) is a common feature of criminal investigations and proceedings. Law enforcement agencies seek various types of ESI to prove criminal activities and to prosecute suspects. At the same time, the Fourth and Fifth Amendments put limitations on what law enforcement can seize and search and what can be demanded of a suspect. Beyond questions of constitutional dimension, courts look for some degree of cooperation between prosecutors and defense counsel and expect defense counsel in multi-defendant prosecutions to coordinate what might be expensive and time-consuming discovery of ESI. This session focuses on the Fourth and Fifth Amendments in the context of "criminal ESI" and also considers how prosecutors and defense counsel might address post-indictment discovery of ESI.

|Nate Salinger
|One Life to Live
|Date of birth
Nathaniel Q "Nate" Salinger is a fictional charcter from the ABC original Soap Opera One Life to Live. The role was played by Lenny Platt from April 12, 2010 to January 10, 2012. He was put on contract in late October 2010 with his first contract episodes airing the week of November 29. Platt remained on the show until it's final week on air, lat airing on January 10, 2010. Nate was born sometime in 1993.
Nate was first seen at Llanview High School, where he met Danielle Rayburn, Matthew Buchanan and Destiny Evans while auditioning for the school musical "Starr X'd Lovers". Where Nate eventually beat Matthew for the role of Cole Thornhart. And with Danielle winning the role of her sister Starr Manning, it began to bring them closer together, even though she was still with Matthew. At first Nate didn't have feelings for Danielle. Until they ended up kissing while rehearsing their lines for their musical. After Danielle's breakdown when her father Todd Manning was in the hospital, she threw her phone and it led Nate to have an excuse to talk her by giving it back to her. As Nate returned Dani's phone, she unexpectedly kissed him again. As the Llanview prom approached, Nate hoped to ask Dani. Though Matthew's jealousy made him ask Dani as quick as possible, leaving Nate without a chance with Dani for now. In order to get over Dani, Nate decided to ask head cheerleader; Whitney Bennett, to the prom. As she gladly accepted, Nate knew he still couldn't get his mind off of Danielle.
After the prom, Nate realizes how strong his feelings for Danielle had become. Though, Matthew's jealousy began to evolve as he threatened Nate to leave them both alone. Nate ignored Matthew's request and continued seeing Dani, as they began sneaking off together as they shared their romantic feelings for each other. Destiny then ends up catching Dani and Nate in the act, and she gives both Dani and Nate a harsh ultimatum. Nate later ends up learning that Matthew told Dani he loved her. After feeling too guilty, Danielle ended up breaking up with Matthew for her feelings for Nate were too strong at this point. This let both Nate and Danielle finally express their relationship in public by becoming an official couple. Though Matthew still bullies Nate around whenever they confront each other.
Now that Nate and Dani were able to express their relationship even further they decided to take a swim at Llantano River. After their swim Nate and Dani attempt to kiss when Nate spots a shiny object beneath some leaves. As they both began to dig out the object it turns out to be a briefcase. Opening it, Nate and Dani discover it's filled with tons of money. Which it's later revealed to be $50,000. Nate decided to take the money, for he has an idea on what to do with the money. While at the Buenos Dias Cafe, Nate meets up with his mother; Inez Salinger. He decided to give her a check of the money so she can pay their payments, which were due weeks ago. This prevented them from being evicted and having to sleep in the street. Nate happily tells Dani what he did, and she gladly briefly celebrates with him. Until Matthew overhears both of them talking about the money. Matthew then remembered that a man with the name of "Bull" was searching for Starr, and the $50,000. Matthew tells Bull that Nate stole the money. Bull later kidnaps Nate, and attempts to kill him. Though he's ended up being held hostage instead. As Nate is being held against his will in an abandoned barn, Dani gets Todd's help. When Starr suddenly appears at the barn, it is revealed that this really is about newcomer James Ford. James ended up hiding the money at the Quarry, where Dani and Nate found it. It all ended when Bull was shot to death by Todd with the help of Nate. And James was accidentally shot by Starr, where Todd and Nate quickly rushed him to the hospital. Once James recovered Nate visited him and apologized for stealing the money. James accepts his apology, though Robert Ford, ends up bashing Nate and threatened him for putting his brother; James' life in danger. Nate leaves as Robert continues his rage against Nate, until James calms him down.[1]
Nate first met Robert and James Ford at Llanview Hospital after the incident about the stolen money. Now, Inez informed both Nate and James that she was not only Nate's mother but James' and Robert's as well. Even though Robert knew Inez was their mother, he kept that secret away from James. James was too young to even remember Inez, while Robert wasn't. Robert felt that Inez abandoned both he and James with their deranged father; Eddie Ford. Inez also reveals that she was pregnant with Nate when she was still with Eddie. So that means Eddie was Nate's father as well. Making James and Robert his brothers. Inez left, because she didn't want to bring another child into the horrible life Eddie has given both James and Robert. Which was the reason for the abandonment. Inez later tried talking to Robert, but he refused and forbade her from seeing James. And to keep her family away from "his". Even though James knows the truth, he accepts Inez and Nate into his life, unlike Robert. Though Robert also forbade James from seeing Nate and Inez.[1] Nate tries to connect with his brothers but although James wants to, Ford is adamantly against it.[2][3]
Later, when Eddie Ford, Nate's father, is murdered, Nate is assumed to be the killer. At his trial, Téa attempts to convince the jury that Nate is not the killer, informing them that many people in Llanview have a reason to want Eddie dead. However, just as the judge is about to dismiss the charges, Nate willingly pleads guilty, negating all of Téa's efforts. It is revealed that he and James are the paternal uncles of Ryder Ford (Robert's son with Jessica Buchanan).
Nate later meets his brother James' ex-girlfriend Deanna Forbes and she moves in with Nate and his mom, which makes Dani jealous. Nate finds out that Matthew killed his dad, Eddie Ford, and confronts him which leads to him punching Matthew and putting him in the hospital. Nate tells Deanna and porn producer Rick Powers overhears and blackmails them. Do porn or he will rat him out and he won't give Deanna the file on her long-lost birth mother from her lawyer. They decide to take the offer. After doing Rick's porno, Rick promises to keep quiet about Nate who hurt Matthew.
On July 28, instead of the showing of Vicker's Man at the film's premiere at the Palace Hotel, Rick switched the film which played the porno Deanna and Nate did together. It was titled Hold the Diploma. Everyone in the audience is shocked, but Dani is more than just shocked causing her to slap Nate and storm out with her family following her. Baz takes Dani home where she starts to burn pictures and read the script of the school play where she first met Nate. Just minutes later, Nate shows up at her house eager to explain but Dani attempts to throw him out of the house leaving her furious with him for lying to her. On August 12, Dani tells her mom that she and Nate broke up and that she doesn't know if they will ever get back together.
On October 14, Nate surprises Dani with a birthday present. Dani agrees to let Nate stay and watch the DVD he gave her. On October 17, Dani forgives him and agrees to go on a date, making it clear that she wants to take it slow. On December 22, Dani and Nate exchange Christmas presents, and they kiss and officially get back together.
On January 10, 2012 Nate visits his brother James after their brother Ford dies.

text: I felt all lady like in white, wearing this cupcake of a dress White is actually my favorite color though I don't wear it as much. I love dresses but when wearing white, you often get that wedding kinda feeling. Since my life is based on the character of 27 dresses – the movie, I don't see myself wearing a real one soon. Back to this dress, it's just perfect because of the shape don't you agree? I love this dress so much, I don't think it needs much. However I really felt a little plain Jane without any accessories. So I paired it up with a cute belt and a necklace, which I wasn't so sure off. Well, I made photos anyway, so you'll be the judge. Let me know which look you like best? I shopped this dress on sale at the regular collection of H&M. I saw it before on snapchat with Giulia, who blogs at Grinsebacke. She told me about this wonderful dress but I couldn't find it here in Holland. Until last week, it was suddenly online and on sale. You are mine! And so I ordered it and when it arrived I was so happy to try it on. It fits like a glove, the dense fabric is soft but not too sturdy. A great example how to shop your shape; always keep your eyes open. Curious to know what I am wearing. Below you can read all items and if there are available online I always add a link. In this case it wasn't (anymore). I am thinking of wearing this in fall too, to combine it with a biker jacket or denim, tights and chelsea boots.

JEFFERSON CITY - Owners of big cats in Missouri may soon see restrictions on their animals.
"It's a big problem, and it needs to be addressed before someone gets killed," said Rosella Baller.
Baller lives near a facility she says houses 84 large, potentially dangerous animals. She has been active for 4 years trying to get legislation to regulate the ownership of these big carnivores in Missouri.
"It will give someone oversight on what's going on. Right now, the sheriff will not go out and count the animals, and the conservation department cannot make them abide by the wildlife code, and the USDA has no jurisdiction," Baller said.
Senator Jolie Justus of Kansas City sponsored Senate Bill 206 because right now Missouri is one of the only states without regulations on the animals.
"Missouri is quickly becoming a haven for people who want to have these large carnivores without a permit," Justus said.
The bill would prohibit ownership of the meat eaters without permits and liability insurance. Some large cat owners agree there needs to be regulation, but disagree with some of the stipulations.
"To put an insurance policy that is so prohibitive, that none of us can afford it, and that effectually bans the ownership of these animals," said J.B. Anderson of the Feline Conservation Federation.
"If these people can't afford the insurance, they can't afford the animals, the same as if you can't afford car insurance, you can't afford to drive," Baller said in reply.
If the bill passes, anyone possessing, breeding, or transporting a large carnivore after January 1, 2008 must have a permit from the Department of Agriculture.
Tuesday was the first hearing on the bill.

Australian search and digital agency Online Marketing Gurus has opened offices in Dallas and Singapore.
The move is part of the agency's fast growth trajectory. Since it launched in 2012, the agency now services more than 350 clients and has a team of more than 100.
It is on track to hit $20 million in revenue this year, without making acquisitions or taking outside investment.
Online Marketing Gurus CEO Andrew Raso is looking forward to bringing the agency's award-winning suite of digital services including SEO, Google Ads, social media advertising and content marketing services to the US and Singapore.
"Exciting things are happening in the Singapore and US markets right now," Raso says.
"Digital is maturing to become much more sophisticated in Singapore, following a greater reliance on traditional marketing channels. It is the perfect time for Online Marketing Gurus to bring our proven strategies from Australia to the rest of Asia.
"The US is a hugely competitive market when it comes to digital, but like Australia there is a dearth of agencies servicing the middle market. In Australia, we have been able to meet the needs of medium sized companies as well as enterprises really well - delivering the results and credibility of a big agency with the attention and time of a small agency. Our goal is to fill this gap in the US market."
Raso says Dallas, Texas is a "major innovation hub" and set to be the next Silicon Valley.
He believes that as an Australian company, Online Marketing Gurus is well placed to compete with global players.
"I have a huge amount of respect for Australian companies which have found success. It's a smaller market with higher wages, higher taxes and a lot of offshore competition, especially in Asia," Raso says.
"Word of mouth can make or break you. I'm a firm believer that if you can make it in Australia, you can make it anywhere. We're confident this will prove true for Online Marketing Gurus."

The Right Topic
Entry posted by kehatch ·

As a fan it is entertaining to debate about the dramatic topics. The fun topics. Should the Calgary Flames trade Jarome Iginla? Should the Calgary Flames blow up the roster? Perhaps the Flames can trade Iginla for Brayden Schenn and then target Yakupov in the draft. Can you imagine a first line of Baertschi-Schenn-Yakupov? Maybe they get Parise as a free agent. What if they trade Bourque for a first rounder and pick up one of the many D-men in this seasons draft. Drool.
Good times no doubt. Fun topics. But they are the wrong topics.
As a fan I don't need a specifically prescribed strategy followed. Trade Iginla? I can support that. Don't trade him? I can support that as well. Go ahead and blow up the roster. Or don't. I am easy. I am happy to support the Flames management as they apply their strategy to this team. They just need to sell me the right product.
Today Mr. King and Mr. Feaster are trying to sell me wins. But the thing about a win-now strategy is that if you employ it then you better win. Sell me that strategy and then lose and I am going to get a annoyed. Repackage the team to sell me the same thing next season and I get frustrated. Throw a bow on it to sell it to me for a third season and still lose and I am exasperated. Don't you dare to try selling it to me for a fourth time. I am not buying. I don't care how fancy your bow and wrapping are.
What do I want? I want the light at the end of the tunnel. I want a plan with a future. I want hope. I want Ken King and Jay Feaster to stand up and admit that the team they put together can't win right now and then show me a plan to put one on the ice that will in the future. In the absence of wins then sell me hope.
At the end of the day Hockey isn't a product that I can put on my shelf or hold in my hands. Its emotion. Its entertainment. I can rally around a team that I can think will win in the future. I can be entertained by watching Sven Baertschi get better season after season. That is infinitely more appealing then watching this boring brand of hockey not bring results while I wonder what in the heck we are going to do when Kipper and Iggy stop performing.
"We are a lunch pail team with only two stars" (said in my best old father voice). I agree. So go get a better team.
Some of you will tell me that is what Feaster is doing. I disagree. Feaster goes on national television and tells the country that he won't make a trade unless it helps the team today. He guaranteed us a playoff spot. He went after Brad Richards. He went after Ryan Smyth. That sounds like a win-now attitude to me.
Feaster isn't Daryll Sutter sure. He isn't selling the future to buy wins today. Rather he is trying to balance the tight rope of winning today while building the team of tomorrow. The problem is that only works if your team of today is good enough to win today and your prospects and young players are good enough to win tomorrow. Neither is true for the Flames.
In the absence of that you have a non direction. Inactivity. Are you willing to trade players for future assets? Well you can do that. Do you want to trade future assets for players? Because you could do that. Or you could just make a trade for the sake of making a trade. Want to trade my problem for your problem? How about my second liner for your second liner? Those are available. Don't want to do any of that? Well then do nothing.
Very few moves of substance helps you to day and tomorrow. So you do nothing. Or perhaps it is fair to say that you do just short of enough to put a winner on the ice. Well almost winning is getting old. I want to be better then mediocre. I want my bite of carrot already! If you can't give me that then at least tell me about the steak sandwich I can get down the road.

Diamond Sees First Free Ascent, Second Ascent of 5.13
7/27/12 - Colorado local Jason Haas has made two free ascents on the Diamond of Longs Peak: the first free ascent of Waterhole #3 and the second free ascent of the Dunn-Westbay.Waterhole #3, an aid route done in 1971 by Kris Walker at 5.8 A3, was the first route to ascend the right side of the Diamond, and the first route to be done via rope soloing. Haas puts the free grade of this six-pitch, 800-foot route at 5.11+ R/X.
Haas was motivated to try the line after spending time last summer working on the Dunn-Westbay. He had come close to sending the Dunn-Westbay, having done the crux pitch, but was stopped by the soaking-wet upper pitches. Soon after, Josh Wharton snagged the first free ascent in July 2011. "I was super psyched for Josh, but I wanted to continue to have that feeling of exploring new and unknown territory," Haas says. Friend and guidebook author Richard Rossiter convinced Haas to have a go on Waterhole this season, and "that was sort of that," he says.
Waterhole #3 was named because it's constantly seeping: "You start the first pitch by climbing through and behind an actual waterfall," Haas says. "The upper half was soaked. Something tells me it won't see another [ascent] for quite some time." He climbed near the top wearing a rain jacket, while enduring inclement weather. "It started raining on me while leading the fourth pitch, and I didn't even notice," he says. "It's definitely not awesome. It's like 'your dog getting out of the bathtub wet.'"
Two days later, Haas made the second free ascent of the Dunn-Westbay (5.10 C3), which was first climbed by Jimmy Dunn and Billy Westbay in 1972. The free grade goes at 5.13b. "Overall, the climbing is great, and it felt like a lingering project," Haas says. "I feel really fortunate to have been able to do both [routes]."
Dates of ascents: July 2012

Stornoway Gas Light Company
As the days begin their slow stretch towards Summer, I thought I'd do some introductory investigations into Stornoway's first forays into town gas.
As usual, the results are presented as found, with the residence following the job title:
Robert Wilson, 33, Manager of Stornoway Gas Works, Imorsligach(!), (b.Auchtermuchty, Fife)
John McPhail, 30, Labourer at Gas Works, Keith Street (b.Barvas)
James McDonald, 31, Plumber and Gas Fitter – Master, Enaclete, (b.Perth)
Robert Wilson, 43, Gas Manager, Gas House, (b.Fife)
John Wilson, 18, Plumber and Tinsmith, Son, Gas House, b. Fifeshire
John McPhail, 40, Fireman at Gas Works, South Beach Street (b.Bragar)
Robert Wilson, 53, Gas and Water Manager, Gas Works, (b.Auchtermuchty, Fife)
John McPhail, 50, Gasman, 16 South Beach Street (b. Stornoway)
John McPhail, 58, Gas Manager, Gas House (b.Stornoway)
Donald McPhail, 25, Engine Fitter, Gas House (b. Stornoway)
Daniel Macallum, 42, Gas Manager, 19 Bells Road (b. Barrhead, Renfrewshire)
John MacPhail, 70, Gas Works Labourer, 1 Newton Street (b. Barvas)
William Miller, 27, Gas Manager, Gas Manager's House (b. Ireland)
Murdo Mcleod, 34, Gas Stoker, 85 Cromwell Stree (b. Stornoway)
John McPhail, 82, Retired Gas Manager, 1 Newton Street, (b. Barvas)
Although these records give us little information regarding the development of gas provision in the town, they do stand as testament to one man, John McPhail, who clearly rose from the ranks to manage the Gas Works and then remained in a more lowly role before his retirement after a lifetime's service to the Stornoway Gas Light Company.

Five brokers in Just Mortgages' self-employed division are set to trade as commercial brokers following a partnership with commercial broker Fiducia.
While Just Mortgages will still identify the client and remain their point of contact, Fiducia will deal with sourcing, processing and paperwork.
All five self-employed brokers have received commercial mortgage training from Fiducia and will be dealing with all commercial cases coming though Just Mortgages' self-employed division.
If the commercial broker advice service proves popular with customers and brokers alike, Just Mortgages will look to train further self-employed brokers to do commercial lending, as well as recruit those already advising on commercial mortgages.
Carl Parker, head of the Just Mortgages self-employed division, said: "We are keen to train up brokers already working with us but from a recruitment point of view, are confident that, through this partnership, we will attract self-employed commercial brokers already working in this area."
Marcus Grimshaw, chief executive officer of Fiducia, added: "The commercial finance industry is crying out for truly independent, professionally brokered, compliant solutions, critically with the client at the heart of everything we do."
"This ethos and the desire to help fund UK business is shared between both our firms. I know this will be a powerful partnership with great benefits to business owners around the UK."

AceShowbiz - Avril Lavigne has revealed her faith helped her through her battle with Lyme disease and inspired her new album.
The "What The Hell" singer took an extended break following the release of her self-titled "Avril Lavigne" collection in 2013, as she battled a series of health complications after contracting Lyme disease from a tick bite.
Avril suggested that being bed-ridden for months helped to strengthen her spirituality.
"(I have my) own personal relationship with God," the 34-year-old told USA Today. "I'm not a crazy Bible-thumper, but I do have faith."
The star, who reached number 2 on Billboard's Hot Christian Songs chart with her comeback hit "Head Above Water", went on to speak about the significance of her Christian upbringing.
"I loved that," she laughed when asked about the song's chart position. "But I'm not surprised because that's where I got my start and how it all began. I grew up in a small town (in Ontario, Canada) singing in church, so it made me very happy. And needless to say, it made my parents very happy, too."
Ahead of the new album's release, the Canadian artist opened up about how her faith influenced her new musical direction.
"Music has been more healing than ever for me," the "Sk8er Boi" hitmaker shared. "I was at a point where I wasn't sure whether I'd be working or even doing music again, and then I started writing songs from my bedroom. 'Head Above Water' and 'Warrior' were the first two songs that I wrote, and then they just kept coming."
"It was cool for me to see because it showed me that music is such a big part of who I am without even thinking about it or trying to make a record," she reflected.

I just wanted to share a personal story with you all to implore you to please please watch what you buy from China.
My mom wore some new pajama's that had already been laundered. The next day her body was covered in red puffiness. She told me that it looked like she had a sunburn from her neck down. She initially thought it was a food reaction, but she ate nothing that was suspect.
I told her to check the label of her new pajamas as the redness effected specific areas of her body, that was covered by them. She did…and they read 'Made in China'.
The next day she went to the doctor because she started puffing up and getting more splotchy. This is after a day of being away from the garment in suspect. He confirmed after seeing her that it was due to the pesticides used on the fabric in her pajamas. She was having a reaction to the poisons used.
Yesterday, day 3, she was so swollen and achy that she couldn't get rings on her fingers or shoes on her feet. Today, day 4, she's in so much pain internally that she can't move or even hold anything in her hands without pain.
The doctor gave her medicines that have helped her but she's under a careful eye….mine and the doctors. I am writing this to warn you that the 'Made in China' info out there is real. China IS STILL using harmful chemicals on and in our products that are shipped to our country and purchased and used in OUR homes.
Please if your label, for any product, reads 'Made in China' please don't buy it. Don't put clothes on your own back and especially not your children. Don't do it! It's not just something you hear about in the news…it's hitting home!
My mom is having severe medical issues because China isn't watching or caring how they're producing their products, and the OUR OWN COUNTRY isn't protecting us!

Based on Predatohm's design, Ohmicide:Melohman is organized around up to four frequency bands, each of them coming with their own Noise Gate, Dynamic, Distortion, Feedback Generator and all mixing abilities with just a twist of pre- and post -processing (distort input, high shelf output…).
The DSP is 100% different from Predatohm: the compressor/expander works differently to fit well with both the very sharp Noise Gate and the huge amount of new distortions. Those are at the core of Ohmicide. They're designed to offer pretty much everything you can think of next to a lot of things you can't. Some, like the tasty "Porridge" distortion sounds deliciously analog, while the "Fractal" one is harsh and digital as hell. Or you've got the very dense "Accumulator" that can add low harmonics instead of high.
All of these distortions are mainly new breeds - yet the classics are also covered. They all are declined (?) in three variations: normal, ampsim and odd. The "Odd" one gives you control over the harmonics frequency and allows for slightly detuned distortion. Last but not least, Ohm Force has added a disto type that was missing from Predatohm… No distortion. It was an absolute need, considering how many things can be done just by using the multiband dynamics!

Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue, high-living son of the president of Equatorial Guinea and vice-president of the country, wanted by France and the United States on charges of money-laundering and embezzlement, is on the point of purchasing one of the world's largest luxury yachts (pictured) for the sum of 200 million dollars. Mediapart has discovered that a company was especially set up in Equatorial Guinea to carry out the acquisition of the vessel from the family of the late Saudi crown prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz Al Saud. It is a remarkable snub to a French judicial investigation into so-called 'ill-gotten gains' of several African leaders and which has uncovered compelling evidence that Obiang Mangue and his father have acquired massive personal fortunes through illegally stripping the assets of the small west-central African state, where an estimated 75% of the population live below the poverty line. Fabrice Arfi reports.

Latest version published by Marine Biological Association on Jun 20, 2018 Marine Biological Association
A preliminary survey of Shingle Springline Communities in the Fleet was undertaken in the summer and early autumn of 2011. These springline communities were identified as a qualifying sub-feature of the Chesil and the Fleet European Marine Site by English Nature but the extent of the habitat remained unknown, neither was a methodology for surveying this sub-feature established at that time. The aims of the present project were therefore: To develop a sampling methodology for the spring communities, compare mollusc species found in 2011 with work reported in 1989, identify other invertebrate species where possible. Two types of spring, and hence two types of springline community were found to be present on the Chesil Bank shore of the Fleet: Fast flowing springs – eastern Fleet, less active springs (seeps) – western Fleet.

The most popular grocery store in the U.S. isn't Costco, report finds
With seven Whole Foods, 13 Safeways, six Trader Joe's, and one giant Costco warehouse all located within the 7x7 of San Francisco, how does one decide where to buy groceries?
You might find fresher berries at Whole Foods — but those prices! — and despite the surplus of paper towels at Costco, who wants to wade through its crowds? The ideal grocery store balances a variety of factors, the foremost of which are price and quality, according to a new report from Dunhumby, a customer data science platform.
And no one does it better than Trader Joe's, the nautical-themed grocery chain beloved for its smiling employees and plethora of private brand products. TJ's placed first in Dunhumby's annual Retailer Preference Index, which analyzed surveys of 7,000 U.S. households to determine the top 56 largest grocery stores with the best combination of financial performance and consumer emotional attachment. Survey takers were asked questions about their attachments to brands, their satisfaction and whether or not they would recommend it to others.
RELATED: Millennials are killing Costco, apparently
The study touted Trader Joe's for its small format, limited national brand offerings and lack of digital shopping, which allow it to focus on "speed of in-store shopping and having a rich private brand offering." A brick-and-mortar approach also minimizes costs, keeping prices low and allowing the company to invest in customer service, product quality and in-store experience.
Price remains the most significant consideration of shoppers, even those with a higher-than-average income. Few retailers edge up the Dunhumby index by focusing on quality or digital offerings, the study found.
RELATED: Insider tips for shopping at Costco
Behind price, consumers care most about the widely defined metric of quality, which signifies the brand has a wide variety of fresh and non-fresh items, clean stores and helpful employees. Other factors consumers care about include operations (pricing consistency and well-stocked shelves), the time it takes to get in and out of the store, convenience, discount and rewards, and digital shopping options.
Behind Trader Joe's on the ranking is Costco, Amazon (excluding Whole Foods, which is owned by Amazon), H-E-B, and Wegmans. Click through the above gallery to see the other top grocery retailers.
