Second Year Wide Receivers: Sophomore Slump…or Success?
The weather's cooling down, leaves are changing, kids are going back to school, all that good crap. What that really means is the preseason is under way and more importantly fantasy football is right around the corner.
Sure, you all love actual football, but what's really more important? Your team going to the playoffs and duking it out for a Super Bowl, or beating your friends in the silly game within the game, that barely acknowledges defense? I kid, of course beating your friends is more important.
So let's look at a storyline that was as surprising as it was intriguing last year, today's sophomore NFL wide receivers. Rookie wide receivers notoriously struggle, but last year we had several put up respectable numbers, and a couple explosive game changers. The sample size is limited for many of these guys making it difficult to project what they'll do. But, let's give it a shot, and see who is overrated, and who should be getting more love.
Odell Beckham Jr. – New York Giants
Odell Beckham Jr., aka ODB or OBJ, is the consensus top dog among sophomore wideouts. He missed the first few games, and then crushed it the rest of the way with 91 receptions, 1305 yards and 12 touchdowns. Projected over a full season, those numbers are ridiculous and easily would have made him the best receiver in the league. He put up the fifth highest total points for wide receivers, which is ridiculous considering he missed time. I'm sure most of you have read all about him, and he definitely has the highest ceiling. However, his ADP is 9.1. That is too high. I love the ceiling, but as a sophomore wide receiver, who has already spent time injured, he has a much lower floor than other wideouts going about that time. The league is going to have made adjustments to him this year, and he will see tougher coverage and lots of double teams. It's definitely possible he adjusts and ends up reaching his absurd potential. It'll take some time though, and he could have problems with the changes. One thing that helps, is that Eli has hardly anyone else to throw to, and is a capable QB. I still think he's a top option, but Julio Jones and Demaryius Thomas have a higher floor, similar ceiling, and lower ADP.
Mike Evans – Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Mike Evans had a tremendous year, despite terrible quarterback play. Winston didn't look great in his first preseason game, but he can't be worse than Tampa's quarterbacks last year, and should be a modest improvement. He's projected to go off the board 10 or 12 spots earlier than Benjamin and Cooks, but is clearly the better option and value for where he's being drafted. I see him as easily the second best sophomore wideout, with a much lower bust potential than Cooks or Benjamin. He ranked as the 13th best wideout according to Pro Football Focus, with 1051 yards and 12 touchdowns. I expect him to have about that many touchdowns again with his size and a lot more yards. He dropped only 4 catchable passes out of 73 opportunities, and was excellent on deep passes, catching 48.6 of passes 20 yards or more, good for 4th in the league. With an ADP of 28.3, you will get good value. He has potential to breakout if Winston plays only decently and an excellent floor. At the beginning of the third round, you can't do much better.
Kelvin Benjamin – Carolina Panthers
Kelvin Benjamin is the next off the board with an ADP of 36. Everyone loves his size, and it should allow him to be good, with the potential of being great. However, he has his problems, and might not reach that potential. His speed is a little lacking, but he will be the top option for Cam. There aren't many other options outside of him and Olsen, because I don't think Funchess will take too many looks this year. So, he should see a ton of targets, after finishing 6th last year. He needs this. Benjamin had problems with drops last year. He had 11 drops out of 84 catchable passes. He still posted good numbers, with 1008 yards and 9 touchdowns. Going at the end of the third round seems right, but maybe a tad high. He should be valuable, because of his volume and TD numbers. If the volume disappears as it did in the second half last year, then he could struggle. If he can improve his hands, then like Evans he could breakout and a bargain. However, his bust rate is much higher, and his overall stats weren't nearly as impressive.
Brandin Cooks – New Orleans Saints
Brandin Cooks is projected to be drafted a few spots after Benjamin, at 38.6. He played well last year until he got hurt. He is incredibly fast, but a little short as well. Wide receivers under 6' tend to perform a lot worse than those with good height. However, this, like most things, is not an absolute. Antonio Brown is the same height, and is probably the best fantasy wide receiver available. Cooks posted the 17th best WR ranking according to Pro Football Focus, so that speaks highly of his ability. However, his time was limited. Considering his height and small sample size, I'd be a little concerned about taking him this early. I still believe in Brees, and expect him to be the top option in the passing game with Graham gone. They will probably be playing behind a good bit, so they should be passing a lot, even though I think they'd like to run more considering how they loaded up their backfield. I love the speed, but think there are a couple better options around him. Cooks and Benjamin are about interchangeable, as they both have high upside, but potential issues.
Jordan Matthews – Philadelphia Eagles
Jordan Matthews is a solid pick, as the Eagles run one of the top offenses in the league. His ADP is 45.9, and is a real bargain at that point in the draft I'm not sure about the transition from Foles to Bradford, but Chip Kelly certainly runs a high powered offense. Matthews had 876 yards and 8 touchdowns last year. He finished 11th in WR ranking, and 13th in percentage of deep passes caught. I see him as most likely to provide the best value of all the sophomore wide receivers. Not necessarily the best stas, but best balue. Matthews dropped 5 out of 72 catchable passes, which is a decent rate. I like his advanced stats and profile. People doubt Kelly, and perhaps rightfully so, but I defer to his ability to create a good offense. With Maclin gone, I'd expect more targets going his way, which should also boost his value. The run game should be solid to help open up the passing game. If you miss Evans, I think you'd be better off waiting for Matthews than taking Benjamin or Cooks, and would also take him over Bryant.
Martavis Bryant – Pittsburgh Steelers
Martavis Bryant is incredibly talented, but also really unpolished. He ran a 4.42 40 and is 6'4". He finished highly in Pro Football Focus' WR rating, but also had 4 drops in 30 catchable passes, ranking him 80th. His ADP is 47.9, which seems a little high at this point in time. It's possible he won't beat Wheaton for the second spot which would really hurt his value. I love that he had excellent WR ranking and yards per route numbers. But, the sample is really small. Like most other receivers in this group, he has great ceiling. He is in a good fantasy environment, except that he has to compete with Brown for targets, but there should be enough to go around. If he has a good preseason and looks to start opposite Brown, then I think this is decent value. He's a bit of a boom or bust pick. If you have a couple of solid options at wide receiver or can pick one up later, then Bryant is an excellent player to take a flyer on, just don't count on him to be your WR2. Everyone should have one or two of these guys in their draft, and at this point in the draft I like what he can do.
Sammy Watkins – Buffalo Bills
Sammy Watkins was a dynamite player for Clemson, who had a solid rookie season for the Bills. However, his fantasy situation is awful. His ADP is 58.3, and it would be higher with a real quarterback throwing him the ball. For instance, a deep threat in college, he caught only 29 percent of balls thrown to him of 20 yards or more. That is a symptom of poor QB play. Now, Rex Ryan will take over, who hates passing, to further deteriorate his value. He had an average drop rate and WR ranking, 982 yards, and 6 TD's. Watkins has good potential, but a couple of issues, and a terrible fantasy situation. Unfortunately, because of the abysmal surroundings, I would avoid Watkins, unless he drops to the 7th round or so.
Allen Robinson – Jacksonville Jaguars
Allen Robinson is looking to build off his rookie season and could be good value with an ADP of 79.1. Bortles wasn't very good last year, but should be a little better. He has good size, but lacks elite speed. His WR rating wasn't that good at 77.1, but some of that can be attributed to Bortles. He dropped only 1 pass in 49 attempts, good for 7th in the league. 548 yards and two touchdowns were his standard numbers, which were solid. I don't see Robinson being a stud this year, unless Bortles really surprises and becomes incredible. However, as a 6th or 7th round pick, you could do worse.

As the country song says, rain is a good thing, but too much rain literally drowns crops. Farmers are struggling to drain water from the land, as the soil has already soaked up more than it can handle and fertilizer or crop protection applications continue to be delayed because fields are too muddy to drive in.
Three weeks without rain would be a welcome change, giving the fields time to dry out, farmers a chance to work, and a very happy change in mood around the IL Corn office!

Need Hard Rock Miners & Tunneling? Call 406-328-7368
Montana Manroc Mining Contractor Site (click here)
Looking for a mining contractor? Montana Manroc is a mine development company specializing in Civil and Mine Construction, Civil Tunneling, Ground Stabilization, Grouting, Mine Development, Mine Operation, Alimak Stoping, Alimak and Conventional Raise Mining, Road Header Operation, and Shotcreting. They are currently working with Shotcrete Technologies and Klempco construction company doing a shotcrete lining of a 1000' deep raise-bore hole, and using wet-mix shotcrete to line the borehole.
Hard rock mining and metals mining contractors generally are experienced in above ground and underground techniques. For underground mining, contractors need to be well versed in excavating ores like gold, copper, lead, nickel, and zinc, which are extracted from ore bodies which can go deep into the ground beyond the reach of most surface mining techniques. To access underground ore, an underground miner or mining company will need to create adits, vertical shafts, or declines to properly access the ore body and ventilate the working environment. Additionally, rock bolts and galvanized culverts may be needed to stabilize the overburden and offer protection against loose rock. Knowledge of shaft and stope excavation will also be critical in the economical removal of ore from the mine.
By starting with the development mining phase, top contractors ensure that waste rock is removed through the elimination (or mucking out) of previously blasted material, rock drilling, explosives loading and blasting, and excavation support. Moving on to production mining, there are methods including short and long hole mining, both of which involve extracting rock from the ore body and then excavating either directly or removing through a bottom excavation.
For 2014, mining regulations have become more stringent despite what you might see on shows about people in Alaska digging big holes into the ground and extracting jars full of gold nuggets. A variety of environmental and land use permits have to be secured in addition to OSHA and mine safety requirements, so be sure all your contractors and subcontractors are licensed, bonded, and insured.
Critical to any mining job is ground support. Through the use of rock bolts, (including grouted, mechanical and friction), stability in the mine is maintained. Materials including shotcrete, cable bolts, welded wire mesh, swellex, and latex membranes are used to ensure that loose rocks and wall faces do not dislodge and injure the miners or damage equipment.

I just learned that a yogi friend, Kelvin, unexpectedly passed away recenty while vacationing in Hawaii with his family. He was a dedicated Bikram Yoga practitioner, I spent many sweaty hours with Kelvin on the mat at Bikram Yoga SLO. He was inspiring to practice next to, strong, focused, and steady. He befriended me one day as I was wearing a Michigan State sweatshirt and he also grew up in Michigan. He kept me abreast of Michigan sports, and in particular we had many important yogi conversations regarding the Detroit Pistons NBA basketball team beating the LA Lakers.
I won't pretend I knew him more than that. Yet, no matter how little I know people, I always get saddened by death. I know that we will all die, that our bodies will return to the earth as they should. I feel blessed to have been touched by Kelvin, and many others who've left this earth, even if just for 5 minutes in the scheme of life. Is this another form of attachment, my sadness? It seems to me that being saddened and mourning the loss of someone leaving the world as I know it is a normal and healthy part of being human. In death I feel like I easily notice someone's inner most goddess nature immediately. Maybe we would all benefit from trying to notice that without death prompting us. I feel like the love and good karma we put into the world lasts so much longer than our lives do. Kelvin's tiny conversations, smile, sweaty dreadlocks, and presence in the background of my yoga practice, they left their positive mark on me. I am reminded today just how short this life can be. None of us has a guarantee for tomorrow. Yet, somehow we live on in what we gave even though the losses will always be there.

Backlash Against Narrow Provider Networks Begins
| February 18, 2014
In Saturday's Republican weekly address, Florida Congressman Tom Rooney injected patient backlash against narrow provider networks into the coming midterm election campaign. "In Florida's heartland, seniors are now forced to drive an hour or more just to see a primary care doctor, let alone a specialist. And across the country, millions of seniors are now paying more money for fewer choices, less access and far less peace of mind," Rooney told his listeners.
Seniors are starting to realize that fewer doctors and hospitals may be available to them if they select a Medicare Advantage plan to cover the benefit gaps in Medicare, and what's more, the doctors and hospitals they prefer are often not among the remaining providers.
Beginning last summer, as I wrote in this space, some insurance companies and actuaries who design policies and determine premiums warned that limited provider networks would also be included in the new health insurance policies offered by state insurance shopping exchanges. The idea behind restricting choice of doctors and hospitals was to offer policies with low premiums as a way to entice new health insurance customers. If providers agreed to offer their services for low prices (in theory, at least), insurers would pass those savings on to policyholders in the form of lower premiums. It was a way to control the price of health care, American style. If enough providers gave discounts on their services, maybe, just maybe, the U.S. health care tab wouldn't climb so high.
There was just one problem: Consumers still want to choose their doctors, and they are particularly annoyed when a carrier drops physicians, especially in the midst of treatment or when someone is planning to have an operation performed by a trusted provider. I wouldn't be too happy if I learned a month before cataract surgery that I had to shop around for another eye surgeon because the one I liked and had confidence in was no longer in my health plan.
Those are the kinds of stories Medicare beneficiaries told Congressman Rooney.
In the beginning of December, Kaiser Health News reported that UnitedHealthcare, the biggest seller of Medicare Advantage plans, thanks to its endorsement from the AARP, is reducing the size of its national network of doctors and hospitals by 10 to 15 percent by the end of this year. The carrier says that although policyholders will find it painful to lose their doctors, smaller networks will lead to better patient care because insurers can work more closely with physicians. That's the kind of talk we heard from HMOs twenty years ago as they tried to justify smaller networks on the basis of better quality.
This narrow network problem circles back to fundamental questions about what we want our health care system to do. For years we've heard about the importance of continuity of care. There's little of that when you find out your doctor is no longer in your network and you have to find a new one in the middle of some treatment. What about the costs for repeating any tests you might need?
We can't solve those contradictions at the moment, and there's limited advice coming from Washington for patients losing their doctors.
According to an Obama administration memo, consumers who bought exchange policies can "move to a plan with a more inclusive provider network" before March 31 when the first open enrollment period closes. But those who switch must stay with the same insurer in the same coverage tier. Someone who has a silver plan with a limited network can look only for another silver plan with a wider group of providers but can't choose a gold plan with a larger network. As the Washington Post reported, administration officials had not decided when they were going to announce this change to the public.
Seniors and disabled people with Medicare Advantage plans have few options as well. They are locked into the plan they chose and the plan's network until next fall's open enrollment. People who have turned 65 and are eligible for Part A (hospital coverage) and have chosen a Medicare Advantage plan have a year to test drive the product and switch plans if they don't like it. And those who have dropped a traditional Medigap policy to buy a Medicare Advantage plan also have – for the first time – a year to see if they like the plan and can switch out of it if they don't.
Do many consumers do this? "No," says Bonnie Burns, a training and policy specialist with California Health Advocates. "Most people don't know about these options."
Finding good health care and making the most of it just keeps getting harder and harder to do.

New form of El Nino may increase chances of hurricanes making landfall
Washington, July 3 (ANI): A study by climatologists at the Georgia Institute of Technology suggests that a new form of El Nino may be changing potentially causing not only a greater number of hurricanes than in average years, but also a greater chance of hurricanes making landfall.
"Normally, El Nino results in diminished hurricanes in the Atlantic, but this new type is resulting in a greater number of hurricanes with greater frequency and more potential to make landfall," said Peter Webster, professor at Georgia Tech's School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences.
That's because this new type of El Nino, known as El Nino Modoki (from the Japanese meaning "similar, but different"), forms in the Central Pacific, rather than the Eastern Pacific as the typical El Nino event does.
Warming in the Central Pacific is associated with a higher storm frequency and a greater potential for making landfall along the Gulf coast and the coast of Central America.
Even though the oceanic circulation pattern of warm water known as El Nino forms in the Pacific, it affects the circulation patterns across the globe, changing the number of hurricanes in the Atlantic.
This regular type of El Nino is more difficult to forecast, with predictions of the December circulation pattern not coming until May.
At first glance, that may seem like plenty of time.
However, the summer before El Nino occurs, the storm patterns change, meaning that predictions of El Nino come only one month before the start of hurricane season in June. But El Nino Modoki follows a different prediction pattern.
"This new type of El Nino is more predictable," said Webster. "We're not sure why, but this could mean that we get greater warning of hurricanes, probably by a number of months," he added.
As to why the form of El Nino is changing to El Nino Modoki, that's not entirely clear yet, said Webster.
"This could be part of a natural oscillation of El Nino," he said. "Or it could be El Nino's response to a warming atmosphere. There are hints that the trade winds of the Pacific have become weaker with time and this may lead to the warming occurring further to the west. We need more data before we know for sure," he added. (ANI)

Entering the premium market in the compact class has paid significant dividends for Mercedes-Benz. Reuben van Niekerk reports
Globally, 2016 saw Mercedes-Benz achieve record sales for the sixth year in a row and, for the first time, sell more than two million passenger cars in 12 months.
A big contributor to that success was the manufacturer's ever-expanding compact car line-up, comprising the A-Class, B-Class, CLA and GLA. The models are perceived to offer variety, driving enjoyment, innovation and a sophisticated design idiom, making them popular across the world.
In terms of keeping pace with modern trends, Mercedes-Benz recently facelifted the GLA making adjustments to the line-up's styling in terms of interior and exterior design, and updating equipment lines.
As the first compact SUV to be launched by the brand, the GLA helped to inject a breath of fresh air into its market segment and has since established itself as a major player. The model is highly manoeuvrable around town, lively on country roads and dynamic and efficient on the motorway.
With a seven-model SUV series, Mercedes-Benz makes no secret of striving to meet mobility requirements of a wide range of customers and, within the GLA line-up, no other competitor offers a larger choice of options.
From the diesel-powered, 100kW, GLA 200 d to the fabulously fast 280kW Mercedes-AMG GLA 45, the brand appears to have all of its bases covered.
So, what's new regarding the latest version of the model? First, technology upgrades are significant. Second, design and styling adjustments – though many tending towards the unobtrusive – have been made in the interests of improving aerodynamics and providing more comfort and better fuel economy.
On the technology front, bi-xenon headlamps have made way for LED equivalents, with optional LED high performance headlamps replacing the previously offered bi-xenon counterparts. The new beams are characterised by brilliant illumination and, in the interests of relieving eye strain, operate at a colour temperature that resembles daylight.
At the rear, new LED performance taillights have replaced outmoded predecessors, the brake lights and indicators in the cluster operating at three intensities – full brightness during the day and, to limit dazzle, medium level at night and low level when the car is stationary in darkness.
Further, the GLA's SUV leanings have been underlined through the introduction of a 360-degree camera that records the car's direct surroundings, transmitting the picture to an information display where it can be depicted as a single image or split into seven different views on an eight-inch screen.
The attractively styled interior is characterised by high quality materials and excellent workmanship. New-look seat covers and trim parts make their appearance, along with chrome finishes for the control panels. As before, the media screen is slim – its display easily legible – while the equally readable instrument cluster features refreshed dials with red needles.
At the rear, the introduction of hands-free boot access means a wave of a foot under the restyled bumper opens the hatch, while a choice of new alloy wheel designs add visual appeal.
Good airflow characteristics around the car's body – which contribute decisively to low fuel consumption in everyday conditions and a pleasantly discreet noise level at higher speeds – have been achieved through a multitude of aerodynamic optimisations carried out in wind tunnel tests.
With vehicle safety being a top priority a Mercedes-Benz, the GLA has a number of active and passive features as standard equipment, among them Active Brake Assist – which can automatically apply brakes if the vehicle ahead stops suddenly – and Attention Assist, which detects typical signs of drowsiness.
In terms of suspension options, a choice of three variants is offered – an off-road comfort package which is fitted as standard; a softer comfort version or a lowered package which brings the chassis closer to the ground.
The range topping GLA 45 4Matic has been refreshed with added intelligent aerodynamic measures like a restyled front apron and roof spoiler. The model boasts LED performance headlamps as standard equipment.
Twin louvres on the grille are finished in silver chrome, as are inserts in the side sills. As an additional option, a 20-inch alloy wheel is available in two colour variants. Improved details at the rear include a new-look diffuser and silver chrome trim.
The interior, too, has been upgraded, the dashboard covered with Artico leather which features contrasting red stitching. The instrument cluster has also been refreshed.
With maximum outputs of 280kW and 475Nm, the GLA 45 is one of the most powerful cars in its segment, capable of completing the 0 to 100km/h sprint in 4,4 seconds.
Entering the compact class is a strategy that has paid off handsomely for Mercedes-Benz. It has allowed the brand to attract a large number of new customers to the market's premium segment, but at an affordable price point.

Portable Generator for my small apartment.?
My local power supplier PG&E sometimes cuts power to my apartment for fire prevention. I need assistance selecting a portable generator for my apartment.
I work from home, so the absolute necessities I need to power are the following.
-My Modem for internet
-My Laptop, 2 monitors, keyboard, mouse, and a landline phone.
Extra things I would prefer to have to ability to power if budget allows is my fridge, also, entertainment items such as a play station and my TV.
I would need a generator that also ranges on the quieter side, out of respect for my neighbors.
Preferred budget <$1,000. If swayed, I can see <$1,500.

If going to a generator you need a 15,000 wat. or 20. That is 15 to 20 amp. The fridge takes 7 to 8 amp. But you only need run it a few hours a day. You can go solar & a battery for the electronics if you wish. I run a 20,000 wat in a 3rd world Country were we can loose power for days to a week of more. I do it like this. Run freezer all night to make ice. It will kick in & out once cold. In morning put ice in cooler box. Put in days needs in there. Run fridge 2 hours to recool it. Now you have day power to run wash machine or other. Run fridge a hour or two before putting power to freezer. Lights & other you have lots of extra power for them even with a 15. But with out the fridge you only need 1 solar plate. & a battery to run the electronics. As the battery will charge & be full when the power goes out. Yes I have 1 solar plate also. For outside lights. & a few things to run of battery at night. You can also shut of the freezer at night once cold.. To save gas.

Have a close look at your lease as I'm sure cutting your power off is illegal without some form of rebate. You may even not have to pay ANY rent if they do this without your permission.
Secondly - get a UPS that is capable of supplying your computing needs, and add a couple of large 12v batteries to it to give you longer runtime.
I would buy a gas powered fridge to avoid that problem entirely. They are usually sold for RV's, but means you won't have a problem.
And if your landlord won't play ball - get the biggest and loudest towable generator and leave it on all night for a week. If anyone blames you for noise - just redirect the complaints to him.
Oh, and filling your home full of burning candles for light would also be a consideration....wouldn't his actions actually be causing a fire risk then?
- daniel gLv 710 months ago
You can run all that from a smaller solar system, done that myself.
Landline phone has power when service is cut, and no need for two monitors.
A pair of the cheapy solar panels at harbor freight tool will run your puter, even satellite network setup.
Forgo the pointless stuff til power is restored, you won't need the computer on watching TV and the panels will run a decent TV and DVD player.
Go to bed, run the fridge on it.

The fridge will be OK for 24 hours. Get a UPS for power backup, and buy a book to read for when the power is out.

Hey Kenneth, all that stuff could easily run off a 1000 watt inverter from Harbor Freight. If it were me, I'd skip the genny, particularly since you live in an apartment, go pick up a deep cycle battery at Menards, Home Depot or an auto parts store and connect the inverter to it. Then get a plug in battery charger, make sure you charge the battery at least once a week on the low setting for a few hours to keep it full, so it's available when you need it. If you end up with an extended outage you can charge the deep cycle battery with a set of jumper cables hooked to the car battery for 20 minutes or so, then take it back in the apartment and continue working. It's not an ideal arrangement, but it can get you through. We have a pair of deep cycle batteries, about the size and weight of a car battery, with an 85 amp hour capacity each, that run an entire 12 volt system in our place. Kitchen LED strip lights under the cabinet, in the den and a small 12 volt LED light on each night stand with a USB plug for charging cell phones. Our batteries are kept charged by a single 120 watt solar panel, it's been working that way for 6 years now. It offsets a small amount of power from the power company, so it saves us a dollar or two a month maybe, but all that stuff keeps working even when the power is out, which is huge. I have a 750 watt inverter that I have used during outages to run the TV, DVD player and our laptop as needed, which is usually just for the evening.
If you decide to go solar, I would not recommend the Harbor Freight solar packages, they are extremely light and not reliable, you can tell by the warranty. Any good brand of panel is warrantied for 20 years or more. I would guess that if you needed to run on solar with your equipment for several hours a day, maybe a pair of 100 watt panels would be enough to do the job. Add in a 20 amp solar charge controller from ebay and you'll always have power to keep the important stuff running. Take care, RudydooSource(s): homepower.com

I agree with everyone pointing you away from a gas generator.
We don't know how your apartment is laid out AND you need to know that you CANNOT run the generator indoors because the carbon monoxide accumulation will kill you and possibly others.
There's one possibility that might work, but it won't be inexpensive.
Ask you landlord if a solar generator is possible.
If your apartment has a southern exposure to the sun - and a balcony - use of four 100 watt hard solar panels or three 120 watt solar panels + a solar generator may provide you with enough for the computer, monitors, modem, landline, smartphone recharge - and at night, TV and game console for at least an hour...
I've made several - in a large rolling tool case, one or two 100 amp-hour sealed, AGW lead acid or LiPo rechargeable batteries can be mounted (they weigh ~65 pounds each). You'll also need a solar controller and 3-4 solar panels that can be in direct sunlight for several hours each day - your devices can be powered at the same time the battery storage recharges. You will also need a AC-DC power inverter to convert the battery's DC power to AC. For computers and monitors, might be best to be a pure sine wave inverter. There are tutorials at YouTube if you want to go down the DIY path. There are a few more parts you'll want/need and you can find them in the tutorials. I got all the parts from Home Depot, Amazon and car-parts stores.
Because there's no motor, the only noise is when the small fans turn on in the power inverter when commercial power goes out and the genny is being used.
I live in Northern California and have PG&E as our energy provider. We just had solar panels installed on the roof (single family home), but in a power outage, they are useless because they are grid-tied and there is no automatic switchover... I'm planning to get that switchover device and whole-house batteries (for only a few important circuits) as soon as battery prices improve and the tech stabilizes a bit.
We don't know how large or how much power your refrigerator uses - you may need to drop this from your wish list.
Check BePreparedSolar.com or goalzero.com if you can't build one.

Before wasting your time on this discussion...will your landlord even permit a portable generator? Where are you storing the fuel for this thing? In your apartment...??? I would be surprised if an LL was going to be OK with this, regardless of how quiet.
You could have easily listed actual energy usage...nobody here knows how much you'll need...how advanced or inefficient is your laptop?
For just basic tech stuff, I'd actually look into battery backup (UPS) as opposed to a generator anyway.
More information on how to pick the right generator...
Good luck.
- SimplytheFACTSLv 710 months ago
I assume your landlord will allow this....as the generator would need to be placed outside on a common area of the property--far enough from the building so the fumes don't enter....and you have somewhere to safely store it...and the gas?
I never heard of a reasonably quiet generator. a basic generator is about 400...i would guess the more powerful ones tend to be louder
YA isn't a good place to get reliable recommendations.
you can move the power from one thing to another..for example, cool your fridge and then unplug it for 3 hours and power your other things.
I know a couple people that got CO poisoning from running a generator from a garage....
- Anonymous10 months ago
Many of them are gas powered & you cannot have those inside.
- Anonymous10 months ago
You might want to check with your apartment manager. I doubt that they'd be all that keen on a gasoline/diesel generator running on the property.

By Military Health System Communications Office
A new training for military medical treatment facility (MTF) clinical and administrative staff has been designed to support the collection of COVID-19 convalescent blood plasma from eligible beneficiaries.
The COVID-19 Convalescent Plasma Collection Program (CCP) is a Department of Defense effort to collect more than 8,000 units of blood donated by members of the military community who have recovered from the disease. Building the widest possible awareness of the CCP in the DoD patient population will help DoD accomplish this ambitious goal.
"The purpose of the training is to help all clinical and administrative MTF personnel educate patients about the program," said Anita Lyons, acting chief, MTF Operations, Defense Health Agency Education and Training Directorate. "We need our staff to tell patients who are convalescing from COVID-19 about the opportunity to be donors."
"Every patient contact can lead to eligible patients donating their plasma to help others who are acutely ill with COVID-19, now or in the future."
The DHA Education and Training Directorate, or J7, developed the training in coordination with the Armed Services Blood Program and other divisions within the DHA. Lyons notes that the training was a high priority to support the goal of CCP donor collections.
"With a Department of Defense goal to have over 8,000 donated units by Sept. 30, it is critical to get MTF staff trained quickly," said Lyons. "We want all MTF staff to be able to speak knowledgably with patients about donating and point them toward further resources."
The CCP training course includes a script for all clinical and administrative employees at MTFs to inform patients, and an ASBP fact sheet they can share with patients. The training aids provide clear, accurate, and standardized messaging.
"With such a broad audience, we had to make sure that it was accessible for everyone," said Lyons. "We want everyone in the MTF who comes in contact with patients—from physicians to front desk staff—to help promote the CCP and identify potential donors."
All MTF clinical and administrative staff must complete the course within 30 days of its assignment in their MTF training modules. MTF staff who need to take the training should log in to their Relias learning management system and look for course CCP001.
"The CCP training empowers the clinical team and administrative staff to engage COVID-19 positive patients and inform them of the opportunity to donate plasma in support of the CCP Program," said Air Force Brig. Gen. Anita Fligge, chief, DHA Education and Training Directorate. "Every patient contact can lead to eligible patients donating their plasma to help others who are acutely ill with COVID-19, now or in the future."

No. 14 Boise State fell from the ranks of the unbeaten late Saturday night in a 28-25 loss to BYU.
The Broncos entered Saturday's game as the highest-ranked team in a non-Power Five conference and the favorite to be the Group of Five team that makes a New Year's Six bowl game. That favorite status disappeared in Provo as the Bronco offense was stagnant without starting QB Hank Bachmeier.
Bachmeier missed the game after he was injured in Week 7. He was replaced by Chase Cord who didn't get the Boise State offense consistently moving until it was too late in the fourth quarter.
BYU ( 3-4) entered the game without its top two quarterbacks. Baylor Romney, a walk-on redshirt freshman, started for the Cougars after backup QB Jaren Hall was injured against South Florida a week ago. Hall made the first start of his career in Week 7 subbing for Zach Wilson after Wilson suffered a thumb injury.
Romney was more productive than Cord. He threw for two third-quarter touchdowns to break the game open in BYU's favor. His first gave the Cougars a 21-10 lead when he found Matt Bushman for a 27-yard score. He hit Bushman again for a 39-yard TD and a 28-10 lead off a trick play just a couple minutes later after Cord threw his second interception of the game.
Boise State pulled within three points with 3:17 remaining and things got weird on BYU's final possession. After taking a fair catch on the kickoff BYU got the ball on the 25, meaning it needed to get to its own 35 for a first down.
The ball was spotted just short of the 35 after third down and, inexplicably, the officials brought out the chains to measure the spot. And gave BYU a first down.
Uh, how did BYU get the ball at the 25 after a fair catch on a kickoff and get a first down short of the 35? pic.twitter.com/74t0xzt3zY— Yahoo Sports College Football (@YahooSportsCFB) October 20, 2019
The spot was ultimately reviewed and pushed back toward the 34. And BYU chose not to punt. Coach Kalani Sitake kept his offense on the field and Roman Kafentzis got a push and dove over the line of scrimmage for the game-clinching first down.
Who's the Group of Five favorite?
Boise State was just one of three undefeated teams outside the Power Five conferences entering Sunday. The Broncos' loss leaves SMU and Appalachian State as the only undefeated Group of Five teams.
The Mustangs will probably be the highest-ranked Group of Five team in Sunday's AP poll after a convincing win over Temple. SMU still has one-loss Memphis on the schedule in addition to Houston and Tulane. Appalachian State's conference schedule is much weaker though the Mountaineers have a non-conference game against South Carolina remaining. An undefeated App State with wins over both North Carolina and South Carolina could end up the highest-ranked Group of Five team at the end of the season if there are no other undefeated teams.
Boise isn't out of it yet, either. With the AAC being one of the wildest conferences in college football so far — seven of 12 teams have two losses or fewer — there's a chance that a one-loss Mountain West champion could be the top non-Power Five team if Cincinnati doesn't end the season with its only loss being to Ohio State. And Boise State has a favorable schedule remaining with Utah State on Nov. 23 looming as the toughest game.
But it's clear that Boise State's margin for error is gone. It's doubtful a two-loss Broncos team would be ranked higher than SMU, App State or any other champions from the other four non-power conferences. Boise needs to win out if it wants to get to a major bowl game for the first time since the 2014 season.

Connect and engage with TPP
In it official journal on June 14, 2017, the European Commission (EU), has released measures to regulate Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) with its salts and certain PFOA related substances. This newly published Regulation (EU) 2017/1000 amended the EU REACH Annex XVII by including a new entry 68 to it and will be applicable from July 4, 2020 though with certain exemptions.
PFOA, its salts and related substances have been recognized as been used in a variety of applications including the Fluoropolymer and Fluoroelastomer production for non-stick coatings in cookware, used in fire-fighting as surfactants, as well as used in textile and paper production. However, PFOA has since June, 2013, been on the Candidate List of Substances of Very High Concern (SVHCs).
The SVHC are often determined based on if the substance meets one or more of certain criteria such as
PFOA, its salts and other related substances have been identified as reprotoxic (toxic to reproduction), carcinogenic; and persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic (PBT) which had put it on an important position on the Candidate list.
Implementation of the new Regulation
The implementation of this new law for PFOA, its salts, and other PFOA-related substances will commence from July 4, 2020 and will happen in phases as shown below:

I received these products for my review. All opinions are my own.
How is your summer going? I hope it is filled with lots of fun, sun, and happy memories! But have your kids been keeping up with their reading? Summer can be hard- you want to let your kids be free to be kids, but it is still important to make sure that they don't lose too much for the "summer slide"!
Did you know that two months of reading skills are LOST over the summer and that it can take up to two months from the first day of school for a student's brain development to get back on track? "Brain drain" is very real and has lasting repercussions that can impact a student's long-term academic performance.
One of the most effective, easiest and affordable ways to ensure students are on track academically come September is to make sure kids have access to books throughout the summer. Whether it's making library visits a part of the summer schedule, starting a neighborhood book swap or incorporating a trip to the local bookstore as part of an outing to the ice cream shop, there are lots of ways to get kids hooked on reading this summer.
As the best selling kids almanac on the planet, the National Geographic Kids Almanac has helped millions of kids beat the summer slide. The key to getting a child to pick up a book is to find one that interests them, and the Almanac 2018 has something for EVERYONE. Featuring over 350 pages and 500 amazing photographs, a shark-themed Almanac Newsmaker Challenge and packed with 10 sections of high interest topics ranging from animal life to sports to things to do, places to see and ways to change the world, the Nat Geo Kids Almanac 2018 (ages 8-12, $14.99) is the perfect way to take a big bite out of the summer slide.

The pictures are always so colorful and interesting, kids cannot help but be drawn into the books. And when they're learning about cultures, animals, geography, science, and so much more, it's the biggest win/win ever. My boys LOVE their National Geographic Kids Almanac 2018. It is SO funny because my oldest was not home when we got the package with their Almanac- but both of my boys did the EXACT same thing upon opening up the book- they immediately went and found their 2017 Almanac (which has been poured over for hours- I tell you the truth.) and compared the population numbers of our state of Minnesota. Seriously- both boys did that first at different times! They love geography so much, and can read and re-read the info about states and countries over and over again. I cannot count the number of times I've heard "Mom, did you know that…" while they are engaged in a Nat Geo book. What more can I say? You're already clicking around to grab a copy, right?
Kids can have fun keeping up with our quickly changing world with the New York Times best-selling Almanac, packed with incredible photos, tons of fun facts, crafts, activities, and fascinating features about animals, science, nature, technology, and more.

periodontal disease Cupertino California
According to information from the American Dental Association, three out of four Americans over age 35 have some form of periodontal disease, the major cause of tooth loss and bad breath (halitosis) in adults. Gingivitis is the mildest form of periodontal disease that, if left untreated, can progress to periodontitis, the loss of bone and tissues that support the tooth.
Periodontal disease has three stages, categorized by the extent of bone loss: mild moderate, and advanced. If only one or a few teeth are effected, it is localized. If all the teeth are involved, it is generalized.
Bacteria that accumulate at and below the gum line cause periodontitis. The bacteria release toxic substances that trigger the breakdown of the gum and bone. The body responds with an inflammatory response in which it essentially turns on itself and destructs the bone and tissues around the teeth. This is the body's way of warding off infectious agents.
When this happens the gum separates from the teeth, forming a gap called a periodontal pocket. If left untreated, periodontitis can lead not only to tooth loss but can also aggravate systemic illnesses. The signs of periodontitis may include:
Very often, however, people are not aware that they should see a periodontics professional because gum disease can progress without pain. It is possible to not exhibit warning signs and still have periodontitis. That is why it is very important to have routine periodontal screenings so that the early signs of the disease can be detected and treated before it becomes a major problem.
Periodontitis is treated in three phases. The first phase involves stopping the disease activity and progression of bone loss. The bacterial deposits (plaque and tartar) that formed above and underneath the gums need to be removed and the root surfaces of the teeth smoothed to enhance healing and deter future plaque retention.
This periodontal treatment is called scaling and root planing. During this phase, a dentist will review the patient's oral hygiene techniques, and give them advice on how to modify certain risk factors associated with periodontal disease.
If the periodontal disease is more advanced, surgical treatment may be needed. The purpose of this phase of periodontal treatment is to create an environment that is more amenable to health and, if possible, bring back some of the bone that was lost to the disease. In some forms of periodontitis, antibiotic treatment may be used. If this is the case, a bacterial culture may be required to test for harmful bacteria and to establish what antibiotics they are susceptible to.
Periodontal disease is a chronic condition that, like many others, has to be closely monitored, even after active treatment.
The third (maintenance) phase is crucial to the success of any periodontal treatment. Daily brushing and flossing is essential in controlling ever-developing plaque and bad breath, as is periodic periodontal maintenance care with a professional scaling of the teeth. Periodontal status will be closely monitored, so that changes can be identified and treated as early as possible.
Everyone should be routinely screened for periodontitis. All dentists are qualified in detecting and treating the early stages of periodontitis, but if an individual suspects that they are at risk, or they know they have gingivitis, they may want to see a periodontist who has advanced training in the diagnosis and treatment of periodontal conditions.
By Laura Minsk, DMD
Dentistry has surely shifted its focus from cavity control, thanks to fluoride and early dental care. Now we are learning more about periodontal disease, and for good reason. These days, tooth loss is the likely result of gum disease.
A. First, we know more about diagnosing the disease and have come upon some very dangerous systemic relationships to other conditions. That is, if you have heart problems, diabetes, or you're expecting a baby, we'll have to watch you closer than the next patient. Ongoing treatment for advanced mouth disease (periodontitis), too, should be scheduled more often.
A. You'll have to contact your periodontist's office for specific pricing but to treat a light case of gingivitis - the very first stages of disease - is the least expensive. Deep pockets around teeth and apparent bone loss - a complex case - will cost more. Periodontitis that requires surgery, and maybe the services of a specialist, costs much, much more. A good argument for early gum disease treatment and prevention.
A. Periodontal and gum disease prevention is the best defense because nobody walks away from it. Unfortunately, periodontal disease is incurable. But with your help, we can keep it under control. So much of your tissue health depends on how much work you're willing to put in. There's nothing magical about brushing and flossing. You just have to do it.

The X Factor judges may soon regret saying yes to Brodie Kelly...
He sailed through to boot camp after receiving four yesses at his first audition, but X Factor judges may soon regret putting through Brodie Kelly, 18.
Now has exclusively uncovered a series of now deleted shocking posts made by the potential pop star between 2011 and 2013 that slated the 'shit' show and attacked Cheryl Fernandez-Versini and Simon Cowell.
Read more X Factor news and gossip!
Brodie first Tweeted: 'I always question why I watch xfactor, it's shit' during series nine – the year his cousin Jaymi Hensley's band Union J came fourth – before posting 'cant wait for The Voice…finally something decent on TV'.
He also branded Cheryl 'boring' and said he'd rather 'look at a poster of her' than watch her on The Jonathan Ross Show in 2012. Around the same time he pondered: '[I] bet Simon Cowell get loads of p***y'.
Brodie also made a lewd sexual remark about Rita Ora.
Now ashamed and apologetic over the posts, which are sure to come as a shock to his thousands of young fans, a friend of his tells Now: 'Brodie's very embarrassed by these Tweets, which were posted three years ago when he was 15. These aren't views he still holds and he's hugely appreciativeof the opportunity that's been given to him by The X Factor. He wants to apologise to anyone he's offended with these comments.'

An expert team from ETH University in Switzerland have built the first house entire designed and planned with digital fabrication methods.
30 industry partners assisted the researchers with the project, which took four years to complete.
Due to this innovative, digital approach to construction, the building used 60% less cement than would usually be required.
This is a new way of seeing architecture," says Matthias Kohler, a member of the DFAB research team.
"Suddenly how we use resources to build our habitats is at the centre of architecture. How you build matters."
The building has three levels with 3D-printed ceilings, energy-efficient walls, timber beams which were assembled by robots on site and an intelligent home system.
Back in 2014, WinSun used 3D printing to manufacture 10 single-story houses in one day before printing an apartment building and a mansion a year later.
With sustainability here is a growing effort within the industry to make construction more sustainable. The Architects' Journal have launched their 'RetroFirst' camapign with the aim of changing government policies to encourage projects to be environmetally friendly.
Rob Charlton, bimstore's co-founder, has also written about the importance of creative re-use. He believes that as well as being a more sustainable alternative to building new developments, creatiove re-use can also help with the wider regeneration of a project's local area – bringing its own set of economic benefits with it.
Plans for roaming 3D printers have also recently been revealed as being under development by a team of Danish developers. The printers will be able to work in a variety of environments by identifying and resolving structural issues as they come across them.

'Half Girlfriend' is a work of fiction, says Chetan Bhagat
KOLKATA: Author Chetan Bhagat has described his book 'Half Girlfriend' as a work of fiction and has ridiculed allegations that its contents had insulted the former kingdom of Dumraon in Bihar.
"'Half Girlfriend' is a work of fiction. It is a mere coincidence that a character Madhav Jha belongs to a royal family," Bhagat said while addressing a gathering at Infocom 2014 in Kolkata.
The author, who has penned popular books like 'Five Point Someone', 'One Night at the Call Centre' and 'The 3 Mistakes of My Life', said he did not require a controversy to become popular.
"Madhav Jha does not exist. It appears some old kings of Dumraon are alleging I have insulted the kingdom. They wrote to me. I have replied politely. I said they have been instigated by someone. I also told them I have made Dumraon famous," he signed off.

Won't you take us to the bioscope?
The films opening in our cinemas this week
What it's about
With World War 1 looming, Robert Conroy, a young army private, adopts a stray, stump-tailed terrier. Conroy names his new friend Stubby and gives him a home, a family, and a chance to embark on the adventure that would define a century. The two quickly find themselves in the trenches of France and on the path to history. French soldier Gaston Baptiste befriends the man and dog and accompanies them along their epic journey through harsh conditions and incredible acts of courage.
What people say
This animated film has a surprising amount of impact, offering an educational introduction to war history, along with messages of teamwork, courage, and more. – Sandie Angulo Chen, Common Sense Media
This may be the first cartoon in history designed for this particular overlap of audiences: military buffs and the very, very young. – Ben Kenigsberg, The NYTimes
What it's about
Clinging to life in a cell in Africa, James is brutally interrogated by jihadis. Worlds away, Danielle prepares to descend into the Arctic Sea. Facing life-or-death ordeals, they must rely on their deep emotional connection.
What people say
Veteran director Wim Wenders is comfortable with taking risks and has never been pigeonholed, but his movies have rarely been as static or flat-out boring as this depressing, message-heavy romance. – Jeffrey M Anderson, Common Sense Media
An art-house weeper starring James McAvoy and Alicia Vikander. Yet even two glamorous and well-matched stars of the moment can't do much to undermine the Wenders meander. – Owen Gleiberman, Variety
What it's about
From the outer reaches of space to the small-town streets of suburbia, the hunt comes home. The universe's most lethal hunters are stronger, smarter and deadlier than ever before, having genetically upgraded themselves with DNA from other species. When a boy accidentally triggers their return to Earth, only a ragtag crew of ex-soldiers and an evolutionary biologist can prevent the end of the human race.
What people say
From time to time its mix of foul-mouthed bro camaraderie and in-your-face violence nods in the direction of modest entertainment value, but the net effect is a whiplash-inducing muddle. – Justin Chang, Los Angeles Times
An ode to the success of that first movie, to making movies simply because one can, not because one should. – Dom Sinacola, Paste Magazine
What it's about
Young. Handsome. And cunning. Based on the incredible true story of a group of wealthy boys from LA in the 1980s who established a get-rich-quick scam that turns deadly.
What people say
Cox finds himself doing a poor imitation of Martin Scorsese, channeling the manic hedonism of both Goodfellas and The Wolf of Wall Street, minus the seductive magnetism of either film's central performance. – Peter Debruge, Variety
Even this star-studded cast couldn't fool audiences into investing their money for this one. – Stephanie Archer, Film Inquiry

And after experiencing it twice in my life, I can say that I learned
a lot of things and I can't wait to share them with you today.
WEARING: Dress from JELLYBEAN / Clutch from SHOPGEORGINE / Shoes from CHARLES & KEITH
Dressing for prom is always the most exciting experience a girl can ever have. Some may find it hard to look for the right dress while others may have already figured what style suits them best. I personally struggled on my first prom experience too. I was totally clueless how prom goes and I really didn't know what dress looks good on me. So to make sure my second prom experience would be the best, I gathered all my learning from my previous prom.
If you're struggling on what to wear and how to prepare for prom, here are my simple personal tips:
1. Pick the right dress – When picking the right dress, make sure it fits you perfectly and it fits your school's prom theme/motif. To save more, buying a dress from stores like JELLYBEAN is the best option since they have a lot of cute and affordable dresses to choose from. But if you want your own design to come to life, hire the best dress maker and make sure to do this 3 weeks or a month before your prom.
2. Choose the right accessories wisely – the right accessories can either match your dress or add a little excitement to your whole look by giving it a little pop of color. If you ever want a little pop of color in your prom look, make sure to pick the right shade that matches your school's motif.
3. Right hair, right makeup – I realized that prom isn't really just about what you wear. It is also about how you look. When choosing for the right hairstyle that suits your dress, always remember that if your dress is a little daring, leaving your hair down and perhaps adding some sexy curls is the best thing to do. And when your dress is a little conservation, this is your chance to be more creative with your hair and make sure your neck shows! When it comes to makeup, go for the one that will make you feel comfortable and the one that will make you still look yourself.

The PROMPT-study (Probable rheumatoid arthritis: Methotrexate versus Placebo Treatment-study) is a double-blind placebo controlled randomized multicenter trial in 110 patients with undifferentiated arthritis, which means they have arthritis but the exact diagnosis is undetermined. The aim of the study was to determine whether the patients would benefit from treatment with methotrexate (MTX). At the end of the study, patients were tested with a special antibody blood test (anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody, anti-CCP) to confirm a diagnosis of RA, one of the most aggressive and debilitating forms of rheumatism.
The study concluded that, in the MTX group, fewer patients developed RA during the observed time and more patients reached remission than in the group receiving placebo. "This data is excellent news as it shows that methotrexate appears to delay or even prevent progression to rheumatoid arthritis amongst patients", said study investigator Professor Tom Huizinga, Rheumatology, Leiden University Medical Center, Leiden.
Methotrexate is an antimetabolite drug, which means it is capable of blocking the metabolism of cells, and is well established in the treatment of cancer and autoimmune diseases such as RA. It acts specifically by inhibiting the metabolism of folic acid. In rheumatoid arthritis, MTX seems to work, in part, by altering aspects of immune function which may play a role in causing the disease.
"One of the most interesting findings from the study was that the patients who benefited the most were the ones showing a positive anti-CCP test, which would in general terms show that a pati

Sometimes we would hear about prp and eventually we might realize that we absolutely know nothing about it. We would sometimes be subjected to such therapies on normal visits to the therapist. Well, this article seeks to take you through the basics of prp and the related therapies. It would be very radical to first of all understand the notion of prp and what it entails. Prp is an ancient method that has been integrated into the modern methods of therapies. It involves the injection of blood sample to the patient's injured area because e of the belief that it enhances the speed of healing.
Where are prp and the related therapies offered?
Sometimes we would require these therapies but we would realize that we do not have the least knowledge of where they are offered in the right quality. The first place that where such therapies are offered is in what is termed as holistic health center. These centers offer these therapies through what is called holistic healing. Holistic healing means that there are no clinical factors entailed. What happens is that the therapists just set a good platform and environment for the efficient healing of the patient but everything else is just a matter of self-healing.
PRP therapy is:
- Effective
- Readily available to health centers
- Affordable
Integrated medicine center is also a place where you can pop in and find these kinds of therapies being offered. Integrated medication involves the combination of more than one therapy to increase the chances that the health condition of a patient is remedied real quickly. They can combine therapies like ancient herbal remedies and issues like holistic healing to make sure that the condition of patient is remedied. This is due to the fact that some health conditions would insist even after subjection of one form of therapy. There is thus the need to combine more than one therapy to increase.
All these centers offer quality services in specific therapies and the chances of healing are always very high. The question has however been the quality of the subjected therapy. Quality determines the success of therapy or its failure. The main reason as to why quality is emphasized is because of the fact that most of these therapies come with specific side effects. What predisposes these side effects is the fact that some of the physicians out there offer us substandard services. Always insist on quality services.
