Bluegrass masters do it again
By Jon Weisberger, March 1999
Indeed, even though the duo is celebrating the 35th anniversary of their induction into the Grand Ole Opry and the release of an important new box set ("The Old Dominion Masters" on Pinecastle), the gentlemanly Virginian seemed content to reminisce about their early days and the growth of the bluegrass style to which they have contributed so much.
Though Jim and Jesse, now 71 and 69 respectively, were born and raised in southwest Virginia at the same time as and just one county over from Carter and Ralph Stanley, their tastes and music took a very different turn from the latter's raw "mountain music" sound.
"Carter and Ralph went after Bill Monroe's sound, especially with Pee Wee Lambert on the mandolin," Jim recalls. "We always loved Bill's music, but when we were growing up, what we really loved were the Blue Sky Boys, the Bailes Brothers and the Delmore Brothers, and I guess we took more after them."
Influenced though they were by the smoother vocal style of these acts, the McReynolds' had some closer models as well.
"Our grandfather (Charles) was a fiddler, one of the best in the area, and our brother-in-law was a fiddler, too. He loved to play those old hoedowns, and he really liked Fiddlin' Arthur Smith's style; he worked real hard to learn it. When friends and family came to visit, the music would start right up - mostly fiddle tunes, so there was a lot of dancing."
Jim and Jesse turned serious about their music in the late 1940's, after Jim returned from military service. With Jim on guitar and Jesse on mandolin, they hired a bass player and fiddler (the legendary Marion Sumner) and began performing on Norton, Va.'s WNVA.
"When we started working, we just tried to get our own sound," Jim says. "If you don't create your own identity, you're just behind someone else."
Like many other country artists during that period, Jim and Jesse spent the next several years moving about from station to station, using their broadcasts to advertise personal appearances in the listening area until they played out the territory or got a better offer elsewhere.
Their travels took them as far from home as Waterloo, Iowa and Wichita, Kansas, where they broadened their repertoire - and style - by singing western and cowboy songs in the style of the Sons Of The Pioneers and the Riders Of The Purple Sage.
Another move took them to Middletown, Ohio, where they made their first recordings for a small, local label in 1951 before signing with Capitol Records the following year. They recorded 16 classic sides for the label before Jesse was drafted into military service in Korea.
When the brothers resumed their musical career in 1955, things began to really fall into place.
"When we reorganized the band, we went to Wheeling, W. Va. to work on the (WWVA) Jamboree, but that didn't work out very well, so we moved down to Florida and went to work on the Suwanee River Jamboree in Live Oak. We were on the move a lot in those days," Jim laughs.
Yet though they didn't know it, their career pattern was about to change, thanks to the explosive growth of television.
Jim and Jesse were among the first bluegrass acts to have a television show, starting with a half-hour slot on Tallahassee's WCTV in 1956. Their engaging presence and soaring harmonies quickly brought them additional shows at other stations in the region and further recordings for the Starday label.
By 1960, they developed enough of an audience to win a sponsorship offer from the Martha White flour company, bringing the brothers even greater renown and a measure of financial security.
"When you worked for Martha White," Jim explains, "it didn't stop when you finished the show. They supported personal appearances with giveaway items, coupons, posters and a lot of promotional help. They started bringing us to Nashville, too, for guest appearances on the Grand Ole Opry."
At the same time, the McReynolds' signed with Columbia Records, moving to the label's subsidiary Epic not long afterward where they had several charting singles, including 1967's Top 20 "Diesel on My Tail."
"They had just started putting country acts on Epic, and since Flatt & Scruggs were already on Columbia, we thought we would stand out a little more on the other label."
The move turned out to be a good one, and the brothers' career - and music - prospered, as they recorded dozens of bluegrass classics for the label.
In 1964, they became members of the Grand Ole Opry and moved to the Nashville area, where they have remained ever since.
Through most of the 1960's, Jim and Jesse continued recording for Epic, producing a huge body of work that ranged from an entire album's worth of Chuck Berry songs done bluegrass style to a tribute to the Louvin Brothers to hot instrumentals that remain some of the most beautiful - and difficult - ever recorded.
Yet, despite their popularity and critical acclaim, changes in the business eventually ended their tenure with Epic.
"When they got into the Nashville Sound," Jim says, "it was almost impossible for us to get airplay on country radio. It was strange; they absolutely would not play bluegrass records on the shows, yet as soon as the advertisements came on, it seemed like all you'd hear would be a banjo and a fiddle."
When a brief stint with Capitol didn't improve the situation, the brothers took the unusual step of creating their own label, Old Dominion.
"We were pretty well into the bluegrass festival circuit by then and selling lots of albums and tapes at our shows, so we just started doing things. We'd just go into the studio and cut songs the way that we wanted to. That way, we could have something to sell while we were touring, and the people seemed to really enjoy them. And we thought, too, that maybe we could lease these recordings to someone, the way we did with Starday, so even when we didn't need to release an album, we'd go ahead and record and just put material in the can."
Those recordings, made from 1972 on, form the basis of the new box set, "Old Dominion Masters."
The set contains material from the first eight albums the duo made for their own label. It's a fitting way to celebrate the remarkable achievements of the brothers - though they're not content to rest on their laurels as they continue making frequent personal appearances.
"Bluegrass is definitely on the upswing," Jim concludes. "There's more work in bluegrass today than ever. There are some impressive new bands out there today; I listen to them, and it makes me want to practice that much harder. I guess that's the thing about bluegrass; you're always playing someplace new, meeting new fans and making new friends. I'm happy we could have been a little part of making all that happen."

It was all good a couple of weeks ago, but that all changed on August 12, 2019. That's the day Popeyes' Louisiana Kitchen released their now viral chicken sandwich at restaurants nationwide. Over the past two weeks the internet has been buzzing and debating if Popeyes wears the crown as the true King of the Chicken Sandwich. During its first 11 days, the buzz created an advertising value worth $23.25 million
$23.25 million: Equivalent ad value in media mentions for "Popeye's Chicken Sandwich" in first 11 days from Digital, Newsprint, Radio, TV and Social, according to @apexmarketing. pic.twitter.com/cXhfrtDnqY
— Darren Rovell (@darrenrovell) August 22, 2019
At the end of the day, this is just a chicken sandwich, but the demand is so high that Popeyes' employees are falling into grease and people are fighting service workers at the drive-thru window. Popeyes' newest concoction is causing an epidemic that might as well be the new Bird Flu. Each and every day we are getting closer to making The Boondocks a reality.I tried Popeyes' Spicy and Crispy chicken sandwiches to see if the hype was true and how they measure up to the competition.
Crispy vs. Spicy
Patrons have the choice of Crispy or Spicy when biting into one of Popeyes' chicken sandwiches. There isn't much difference between the two sandwiches outside of the sauces they are topped with, as Popeyes' website describes them as:
Buttermilk battered chicken fillet, crisp barrel-cured pickles, your choice of spicy Cajun spread or mayo, on a buttery toasted brioche bun.
For each first bite, I tried the sandwiches as they came without any type of modifications. Time to take a look at what Louisiana's most well-known kitchen has cooked up for us.
A Little Crunch Goes a Long Way
First up is Popeyes' Crispy chicken sandwich and if you're a mayonnaise lover then this is the sandwich for you. Personally, this has far too much mayo for me, but this is a hearty chicken sandwich. The chicken breast is so plump that it hangs off the brioche buns. The pickles are bound to fall off just like the mayo that's dripping off of the sides.
With the first bite, I tried the sandwich as is, and the results are mixed. The best part of the sandwich is the buttermilk breading that Popeyes' uses. The chicken is as crispy as its namesake and the breading has Popeyes' trademark flavor, but their chicken fillet tastes better on a sandwich than their regular legs and wings.
The pickles do not have a distinct flavor compared to their competitors. They taste like somebody just cut up some cucumbers and put a couple drops of vinegar on them and just called it a day. They taste closer to "barrel-placebo" than "barrel-cured".
Had to hook it up after the first bite by trying it with Popeyes' Sweet Heat and Blackened Ranch sauces. This is where things picked up because each added more flavor and paired better with the chicken than Popeyes' mayonnaise did. Overall, the Crispy chicken sandwich was enjoyable but I don't think I would eat this one again.
Time to Spice Things Up
Disclaimer: I love spicy food.
Unlike most fast food restaurants, Popeyes' Spicy chicken sandwich only differs from its Crispy counterpart because of the cajun spread that's used to make it spicy. Most fast food restaurants use a chicken breast that's seasoned in various spices to create a spicy flavor. Since Popeyes already uses spices for its chicken if you're someone (like me) that does not think their chicken has a kick to it, then you better hope that their cajun spread does. This is what it looks like out of the wrapper:
Again the chicken is hearty. The pickles poke out the bun and you can see the glow from the orange cajun spread. You can see the spices used to create the zesty cajun spread and the spread does have a welcoming flavor, but it needs more heat.
For all the foodies out there, if you have to choose between the two sandwiches then Spicy is the one that tastes unique and not something that you can get from anywhere. Again, the pickles could've been better or tasted more pickle-y, but I highly recommend the Spicy chicken sandwich.
I do wish that the breading had more of a spice to it because that's the biggest thing that is holding this sandwich back. Like the Crispy sandwich above, the Spicy pairs better with other sauces that Popeyes' offers. If you like heat then ask for a pack of Sweet Heat dipping sauce and you will not be disappointed.
Better Than Chick-Fil-A?
When it comes to this chicken sandwich debate, some say that it's hard to eat at Chick-Fil-A because of their homophobic ties; while others say Popeyes' ill-fated ad campaigns have been questionable and obnoxious at times. The biggest positive from the nationwide rollout is that social media has given Popeyes free advertising. It's to the point where people have been saying that Chick-Fil-A is so shook, that they might have to open on Sundays to compete. This was highlighted by the fact that Chick-Fil-A was going through it on Twitter and Popeyes had to check up on them:
… y'all good? https://t.co/lPaTFXfnyP
— Popeyes Chicken (@PopeyesChicken) August 19, 2019
Others had their verdict on which chain had the superior chicken sandwich in a well thought out breakdown:
Personally, the edge goes to Chick-Fil-A. The Home of the Original Chicken Sandwich has a spicer chicken sandwich, better pickles and a better bun than Popeyes. Popeyes has infiltrated the market with a top 3 chicken sandwich but there is room for growth (add pepper jack cheese to the menu). Is Popeyes' new sandwich delicious? Yes, especially their spicy version. The breading at Popeyes is what makes their sandwich for me, and with a few modifications, Louisiana's Famous Kitchen might be able to become the king. But at the end of the day, Popeyes created a chicken sandwich that was perfectly made for Sundays.

About the IIFC
The Institute for Individual and Family Counseling (IIFC) is a training clinic for graduate students in the Department of Educational and Psychological Studies within the School of Education and Human Development at the University of Miami.
Each year the clinic is the primary training site for approximately 20 students who are pursuing advanced degrees in one of three programs: the master's degree program in Mental Health Counseling, the master's degree program in Marriage and Family Therapy, and the doctoral degree program in Counseling Psychology. All students practice under the direct supervision of University of Miami faculty that are licensed in their field of practice, and the clinic is run by a full-time faculty member whose primary job responsibility is the administration and clinical oversight of all IIFC's activities. The existence of the IIFC represents a significant commitment on the part of the School of Education and Human Development and the University of Miami to provide a model training environment for its graduate students and valuable community service.
Our Mission
The primary mission of the IIFC is to train mental health professionals while providing affordable counseling services to the local community and serving as a center for counseling research. The training involves the development of a strong professional identity as a mental health care provider including ethical, clinical, business, and research practice. Historically, a distinctive feature of the Institute has been its concentration on family-related issues. Currently, the IIFC uses diverse therapeutic models and approaches to address a wide-range of counseling issues for individuals, couples, and families.
The faculty considers the practicum component of the counseling programs, coordinated entirely through the IIFC, to be one of the most vital parts of the students' education and training. Furthermore, the faculty must ensure that services provided to the community are of high quality. Given these priorities, the students' performance at the IIFC is regarded as a very significant matter.
To support the community and to provide affordable services, the IIFC uses a sliding scale fee system to determine the cost of therapy. This fee is based on the client's income and number of dependents.

Common Health Questions
NHS website - How can I get an NHS hearing aid?
How can I get an NHS hearing aid?
If you're concerned about your hearing, see your GP, who can refer you to a specialist, such as:
- an ear, nose and throat (ENT) specialist
- a hearing specialist (audiologist), particularly if you're over 60
- a clinic run by audiology staff at your GP surgery, local hospital or health centre
The specialist will assess your hearing to find the cause of your hearing loss. Some people may not need a hearing aid – for example, if an ear infection affects your hearing temporarily.
NHS hearing aids
If the specialist advises that you need a hearing aid, the audiology service will recommend the most suitable type available. All NHS supplied hearing aids are digital. NHS hearing aids include:
- behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aids; these have an open tube or earmould that sits inside your ear and the rest sits behind your ear
- bone-anchored hearing aids (BAHA); these are a type of bone conduction hearing aid, which require a permanent surgical implant in the bone behind your ear
- CROS (contralateral routing of signals) and BiCROS hearing aids; these are for people with hearing in only one ear and work by transmitting sound from the side with no hearing to your hearing ear
Read about hearing impairment for more information on hearing aids and Cochlear Implants.
Other hearing aids may be available
Getting an NHS hearing aid
Your specialist will make an impression of your ear for the earmould. You'll need to return a few weeks after this to have your hearing aid fitted. Some types of hearing aid, called an 'open ear fitting', don't require an earmould. These may be fitted the same day as you have your hearing tests.
Your hearing aid will be adjusted to suit your level of hearing loss, and you'll be shown how to use and care for it. You may be invited for a follow up appointment or phone call.
NHS hearing aids and new batteries are free. If you lose your hearing aid or damage it, you may be asked to pay towards the cost of repairing or replacing it.
Getting a hearing aid privately
In the UK, all hearing aid dispensers must be registered with the Health & Care Professions Council (HCPC).
If you decide to buy a hearing aid privately, make sure you consult a qualified registered hearing aid dispenser. They should have the letters RHAD (Registered Hearing Aid Dispenser) after their name.

If you look at the before and after pictures of a Paleo Diet user, you are sure to be blown away. People who were overweight have lost significant pounds, people who were out of shape look firm and toned, and older people seem to look years younger. All of these changes supposedly came from a few simple diet changes.
But if we are really honest, all of those before and after pictures are really just that, pictures. How are you supposed to really be able to tell what changes have happened to a person through pictures? At the end of the day, just looking at pictures does not give you any real clue about the results that these Paleo dieters have gotten.
So what are the real benefits of the Paleo diet? What are the results that you will be able to see and feel for yourself? And most importantly, if you have been mislead by diets for so long, how are you supposed to believe that the Paleo diet will really make a difference in your life?
One of the biggest things people talk about when it comes to the Paleo lifestyle is the amount of energy that they have and how quickly they see results. Now if you think about it, most diets and exercise programs claim that you will have a lot of energy and fast results. But the difference between those programs and the Paleo diet is very simple. The Paleo diet makes sure that your body is getting enough protein to get you through the day.
So many of us are deficient in protein and we don't even realize it. We go through our day thinking that eating that banana or having that protein shake will be enough for us. But the truth is when you have enough protein in your body, you will quickly start to see changes in your life. Not only does protein work to make you feel fuller, but it will also help you to lose weight at an incredible speed. One of the biggest reasons people see so many changes on the Paleo diet is because this is one of the only diets out there that makes sure your body has enough protein.
But protein alone is only one of the reason behind the success of Paleo. The other reason is that you will stop eating processed foods. Foods that don't come straight from the earth are not only unhealthy for your body, but these processed foods can literally store up in your body and lead to illness, disease, or death. But when you are eating a Paleo diet, you are eating foods as they were meant to be eaten, in the purest form possible.
Isn't it time you started looking into Paleo?

New Fashion Trends This Spring-Summer 2019
New Fashion Trends This Spring-Summer 2019
Recently, world designers presented new collections spring-summer 2019, so we decided to introduce you to the main trends of the warm season. What are the spring trends – read on. In the new warm season, the trend will be not only leather accessories, but also elements of wardrobe. Jackets, raincoats, dresses, shorts, suits and overalls – choose yourself to taste and stay stylish! Particularly relevant in the spring is the classic, slightly brilliant skin of restrained shades – milk, black, brown, green, white, etc.
FEATHERS Trends Probably, on the eve of the spring known couturier inspired the image of pink flamingos and decorated many of their creations with feathers. It may be a dress-carrying case with a bare shoulder, a pajamas suit, a trendy trench, or an elegant bonnet. PEA This trend print is not inferior to its popularity from the past warm season. However, this year it is appropriate to create total-meadows in peas. Trousers + shirt, suit or dress + jacket – choosing peas, you will stay in the trend, without leaving the comfort zone. A classic combination of white peas on a black background decorate with a bright accessory – a red bag, green shoes or massive decorations.
POWDERY FEVER Trends Although the most fashionable color and trends of the new season has been announced reviving coral, world designers have not forgotten about the classics. One of the most beloved colors of the approaching spring is the gentle powder. You can choose one beige thing, or create monochrome meadows. Agree, this shade is as though breathing freshness and harmony! OVERSIZE It seems that oversize things will no longer be able to give up any fashionista. They are very trends, comfortable, minimalistic and fashionable. This spring is especially exciting to emphasize the jacket in the men's style. It can be mixed with a skirt of pleisus, and favorite classic pants for work in the office. Decorate your spring pattern with a leather belt and heel shoes.
We also recommend looking at models of jackets that will create the effect of voluminous shoulders in the style of the 80's. TRENCH Women's classic trench beats all fashion records. With a jeans, lightweight dress or a skirt – a classic beige coat will allow you to feel like a real lady. It should be noted that in the spring of 2019 in the trends trench with lowered shoulders. PLISSE Skirt-plisse length of copper as well as models of asymmetric cut remain relevant in the spring of the new year. The skirt-plice does not fit all, but there is always an alternative. Especially this model is for lean women with long legs.
For beauty plus-size we advise you to give up the mini-length, and we suggest taking note of the skirt with small folds. In addition, it's important to pick the right top, which will successfully highlight your benefits. BRIGHT PRINTS Floral, architectural, animalism, ethnic motifs – the spring of 2019 will undoubtedly be vivid and trend! Saturated prints in the Versace style will surely leave you at the center of attention. With such patterns do not need to be afraid to combine total-meadows. Too? Not at all! Liven up your wardrobe with incredible colors.
TOTAL-WHITE A monochrome white bow will make you a gentle spring angel. Elegant white sundress, laconic boot shoes and a favorite bag – in this way, nothing superfluous, so you will feel light and easy. SIZABLE BOW-KNOT Not just great, but even a giant bow on your clothes can become the main accent and trends of the spring image. Such a fashionable item is appropriate on classical dresses-copper, small black dresses, evening dresses, silk blouses and hats. Bright and eye-catching hair decorations are in fact one of the main trends not only in spring, but also in 2019. Dare to buy such stylish accessories, one can be sure: they will not lose their relevance either in the summer or in the fall.
And if you live on the principle of "hats for the weak", then you can wear them in the winter. In addition, not all fashionable hair ornaments will have to go to the store. Look deeper into the cabinet drawers or look at the bottom of the cosmetics bag – most of the accessories that are now in the trends, you already have. But about how to wear them properly and with what to combine – read in the material. On the shows of spring and summer collections of the model repeatedly appeared with hairstyles, decorated with a large number of fasteners.
With beads and letters, plastic and metal, in the form of laced pins and colored mates – the fashion 2019 recognizes a variety of options. Wearing hairpins can be done together (for 3-5 in the hair), and separately. And not necessarily with the practical purpose: if you do not have a bang that you want to fix, add the hairpin just like that – to the hair that has been loosened or collected. Hoops An elegant hoop can be safely called the Kate Middleton Business Card. Who knows, maybe Duchess of Cambridge inspired designers and heroes of street-style to return to this unjustly forgotten accessory of the 90's.
Fortunately, unlike Katherine, we do not need to stick to the protocol, and so the hoop can be worn not restrained, but what the soul desires. A gentle spring image will complement a lightweight textile pattern with a floral print or ribbon rims. In the evening, you can be more courageous and try out a decoration of leather or latex. If it is planned to go out into the world – a hoop with stones and a glass bead will fit. Crabs Plastic "crabs" on the springs burst into the mood suddenly and quickly turned into a main element of disco hairstyle. When the wave of popularity was asleep, from the category of the evening, such fasteners went into the daily routine – for relaxation near the river or for the home.
In recent years, "crabs" and in general have almost completely disappeared from the arsenal of even the most conservative fashionistas. In the new year, the haircuts-"crabs" suddenly returned to fashion and led top topical hair adornments. The most trendy way to wear them – 2-3 at once, and ideally – even with a lot of pins. Prepare that colleagues can not understand you. But to sneakers under the dress, we also came not immediately … Elastics An era of silicone rubbers resembling a vintage wired stationary phone has remained in the past. Now, the more visible accessory on the hair – the better. In fashion trends in 2019, volume bulk silk and velvet gum, with which we once went to study again, entered again.
Bonus – the hairdo can be as simple as possible. Even a regular low tail or bundle, adorned with a large elastic band, will look spectacular. Bow Of course, the most engaged and very girl like trend is the bows in the hair. If this accessory seems too frivolous, remember the icon of the 60's style – Brigitte Bardot. The red or black bow, which complements the volumetric stack on the bluish hair, has become a real chip of the virgin. For those who still doubt, you can start all of the same zippers with miniature bows or use a thin ribbon tied to a sophisticated bow.

Hurricane Danny Upgraded to Category 3 Storm
- Details
- Category: Earth, Air, Space Science
- Published on Friday, 21 August 2015 14:47
- Written by Janet Walker
Hurricane Danny, the first named storm of the Atlantic Hurricane 2015 Season, quickly escalated to a Category 3 storm gaining strength over the warm waters of the Atlantic pushing forward threatening the Virgin Islands, Leeward and Puerto Rico.
Key cone modules give Danny a wide berth with sustain winds of 115mph, Danny is expected to cause wind damage across much of the northern most Caribbean Islands and bring much needed rain to the drought effected Puerto Rico.
The system supporting Danny is expected to weaken and, according to weather modules, Hurricane Danny does not pose a threat to Florida or the eastern seaboard.
Although off Key West and Miami may experience higher tides, some beach erosion and higher than normal waves.
Even as all indicators have Hurricane Danny fading quickly and quietly, officials are using the first named storm as a platform of preparedness urging coastal residents and those most usually effected to get a game plan.
Prepare for, minimally, 72 hours before any official first responders will be available. This includes electricity outages and any supplied services.
Have spare glasses, additional medicines, a list of allergies, and medical needs on the off chance medical care is needed. Prepare for pets needs also. Have name badges, with medical information including blood type, food allergies and special needs typed to the back of the badge covered in plastic and worn with a whistle. Have a designated meeting place and coded signal. Practice fire drills, home safety procedures.

Ocelot's pride
I made a book about ocelots on the app Book Creator. First I researched with a book, website, and databases. Next I took notes in an organizer. Then I used an app called Popplet and made a diagram about ocelots. Then I used another app called Google Earth and found a picture of South America because that is where the Amazon rainforest is. Then I used the app Book Creator to make my book. I started with my cover then I made the rest of my pages. I added a Table of contents and introduction I had big headings. Next time I will have better spelling. This project was fun! I hope you liked it!
One Response to "Ocelot's pride"
Wow Andrew!! You did a great job on your research project. I learned a lot.

Beware of One-Size-Fits-All Annuities
Good Morning Relaxing Retirement Subscriber,
After sharing the story last week of our Relaxing Retirement member's brother and the enormous surrender charge they were going to have to pay to access their money to finance the transition to a new condo here in the Boston area and in Florida, we sifted through and dissected the basic characteristics of annuities so you can avoid falling into the same trap they did.
This included immediate vs. deferred annuities, fixed vs. variable annuities, and the accumulation and distribution phases of all annuities.
With that basic understanding under our belts, I'm now going to take it a step further and delve into some of the pros and cons of using annuities.
As I stated last week, I'm not a big fan of annuities and I believe they are grossly oversold by agents and "advisors" painting them as the one-size-fits-all solution to any financial problem.
The reality is annuities are not all good or all bad. They're simply a tool to have in your planning toolbox.
And, like any tool, they can work to solve very specific problems, but never as a one-size-fits-all solution.
- Guaranteed Income for Life: Sounds pretty attractive, doesn't it? If you annuitize your annuity, you lock in a guaranteed payment for as long as you live if you wish. This can be an extremely attractive feature for some. If you live to be 132 years of age, you still receive your monthly check. (This assumes that the health of your insurance company remains sound and they can fulfill that commitment. A rather aggressive assumption.)
- Tax Deferral: All interest and gains inside your annuity grow tax deferred. So, as an example, if you have $500,000 in bank CDs, and you earn 3%, that $15,000 of interest you receive from the bank is subject to ordinary income taxes in the year you receive it. Even if you don't spend the interest and roll it back into the CD.
If the same $500,000 was held in an annuity, your $15,000 of interest (or gain) would not be taxed until you withdraw funds from the annuity. The long term compound interest benefits from this can be substantial because the money that would have gone to pay taxes each year can continue to grow.
- Investment Flexibility: As I mentioned last week, variable annuities allow you to invest in a variety of investment subaccounts which act like mutual funds you would purchase outside of an annuity. This allows you to take advantage of investment diversification and the potential to keep pace with inflation.
- Withdrawal Privileges: Many annuities offer very stringent withdrawal policies, and penalize you for withdrawing your funds during the first six to twelve years (some even longer). Charges for early withdrawal can be as high as 15% of the amount you withdraw. However, some allow you to withdraw all your gains or 10% of the accumulated value in any given year without surrender charges. (Be sure to check the fine print)
- Surrender Charges: As I just alluded to, most annuity companies charge hefty surrender fees if you remove money from the plan during the first six to twelve years. For example, it is not uncommon for a fixed annuity carrier to charge you 9% if you want to remove funds during the first year of your plan. Most "Equity Indexed" annuities, which are being heavily marketed by insurance companies, have as long as a 20 year surrender charge period with surrender charges as high as 15%! Because of this, you have to be very careful about your need for the money you're placing in the annuity.
- Fixed Annuities: Many companies lure customers in with "bonus" interest in the first year. You'll see ads in the newspapers like this all the time. While the interest rate can be attractive, it's typically only for one year. After the first year, the interest you receive is based on the performance of the underlying insurance company. If you don't like the interest they're paying in year two and beyond, you have no recourse other than to withdraw your money. However, as I stated above, you may very well be subject to a hefty surrender charge.
- Variable Annuity Options: There are two issues I'd like to call your attention to:
- Insurance companies contract with mutual fund firms to provide some of that firm's mutual funds in their variable annuity contract. While their subaccount "lineup" may be impressive, it's not locked in place for life. If the subaccounts you really like are removed from the plan, you can only invest in the remaining subaccount options. And, as in the last example, if you don't like those remaining options, you may have to pay a significant surrender charge to make a change to another plan.
- Cost: Insurance companies who sponsor variable annuities charge fees in order to run the program. This cost typically hovers around 1.50%. In the long run, this is considerable, so you want to be very clear about what your company charges. The good news is that market forces have worked and some companies now offer very attractive plans with significantly lower fees.
- Ordinary Income Tax Rates: As I noted above, one of the attractive features of an annuity is tax deferred growth. However, all gains removed from annuities are taxed at ordinary income tax rates as opposed to capital gains tax rates which are currently much lower. Even if your stock market based subaccount in your variable annuity doubles in price, you don't pay capital gains tax on that gain. Instead, you pay ordinary income tax rates when you withdraw funds from your plan (as high as 0%+ the medicare surtax). If you purchased a mutual fund outside of an annuity, and it doubled in price, you would pay capital gains tax rates on that realized gain (currently 15% to 20%).
- Annuitizing: While guaranteed income for life is attractive, it comes with a price tag by the insurance company. If you deposit $500,000 into an annuity and select the single life payout, you receive income payments for as long as you live. However, when you pass away, the insurance keeps the principal, even if that occurs in the first year. As I outlined last week, you may choose to protect your spouse by choosing a period certain or joint and survivor option, by payments still end at the end of the period or at your deaths. This is a critical factor to clearly understand.
While this list is certainly not exhaustive, understanding these points gives you a significant advantage.
Coming up, I'm going to give you some examples of situations where an annuity might be useful for you, and some examples where they're being oversold that you want to avoid.
Committed To Your Relaxing Retirement,

The reality of carbon fiber for the auto industry today
Greg Rucks, a manager in the transportation practice at composites think tank Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI, Snowmass, Colo.), sees realistic pathways for carbon fiber incursion in to the automotive passenger car market.
#precursor #outofautoclave #electricvehicles
Carbon fiber composites are too expensive for high-volume automotive production. The manufacturing processes can't yet meet stringent automotive requirements for repeatability and production speed. The myriad combinations of fiber grades, forms, tow sizes and resin types creates an overwhelming number of options that are, to date, inadequately understood and characterized.
I've heard these arguments too many times to count. Although there is some truth to each, I contend that with careful planning and application selection, the auto industry is ready for cost-effective, high-volume production … right now, at 100,000 units per year. I'll take each objection by turns, and explain why.
Manufacturing process maturity. At the U.S. Department of Energy's (DoE) Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composite Manufacturing Workshop (Jan. 13, 2014, in Arlington, Va.), participants from the transportation, energy and industrial sectors identified five composites manufacturing processes that are at the highest possible technology readiness level (TRL) short of commercialization. Several manufacturers are approaching one-minute cycle times, using both thermosets (e.g., fast-cure resins and very-high-pressure resin infusion) and thermoplastics (e.g., long-fiber thermoplastic injection molding, overmolding, thermoforming or compression molding). At 100,000 units per year, generally considered the high-volume threshold, a five-minute cycle time will suffice, and many processes can already hit that target.
Bottom Line: Process immaturity is not a show-stopping barrier.
Material complexity. Composites introduce a wider array of material options than do metals — their dual-material nature alone doubles the options. One must also select and combine compatible fiber forms, grades, surface treatments and tow sizes. In the auto industry, only fast-forming resins and processes will cut it, so automakers face fewer options. Having some options can be a good problem to have, so long as those options are clearly understood from a materials science standpoint. Further, material suppliers that are advancing automotive-capable material systems have made a greater effort than in the past to understand how parts will be manufactured. You won't find material suppliers anywhere else, today, with such an intimate knowledge of material interactions and downstream part manufacturing.
Bottom Line: Composite material complexities pose some challenges for OEMs, but growing composites expertise among universities, government, and increasingly able suppliers can assist automakers in the selection of the best material options.
Material cost (vs. value). Often the automaker's first objection, material cost drives part cost more than any other manufacturing consideration. But finding the right material option and understanding the way it and the processes fit together is a key to identifying cost-effective solutions in the near term. By most accounts, equipment, tooling and nonmaterial variable manufacturing costs are lower with composites than with steel. No, they're not yet low enough to offset fiber cost, but our national labs and several carbon fiber manufacturers are hard at work trying to perfect lower-cost precursors.
That said, material cost is too often cited without regard to the value the material can bring to the end product. If customers are willing to pay for the value derived from carbon composites, or these materials enable cost reductions in enough other places in the auto production process, that can offset the upfront material cost premium and provide a feasible business case.
Car owners will pay for improved safety, for example, and composites offer some unique capabilities here. The challenge is quantifying the safety benefit via test methods and predictive computer-aided engineering tools. For the automaker, value includes part consolidation: reducing a subassembly from 50 to 20 parts has a big impact on assembly time and overhead and, therefore, part cost.
Bottom Line: Material cost is a real barrier, but it can be mitigated by value derived from a good application, design, material and process mix.
Supply chain fragmentation. Navigating material options is difficult because each company in a supply chain is typically focused on a highly specialized set of options and capabilities. To stay afloat in this volatile industry, automotive composites companies often had to pick a handful of material technologies (in the case of material suppliers) or manufacturing technologies (in the case of Tier 1s, equipment providers and toolmakers) and perfect them.
To ensure a company's viability in an uncertain marketplace, that choice is motivated, in part, by the need to ensure that their specialties also apply in aerospace, marine, wind energy and other sectors. That's why we don't find much vertical integration in the carbon composites supply chain, and when we do, it likely isn't optimized for auto applications. Few resin producers offer both thermosets and thermoplastics, for example, and tooling providers rarely have expertise in multiple manufacturing processes. As a result, carefully crafted, competitive supply chain partnerships are critical to kicking off successful automotive applications at scale.
But that gets to the heart of the real challenge: Supply chain candidates are typically specialists, not generalists, so some won't fit with others, and when partnerships are forged, they can limit the technologies that are available for future (and unforeseeable) applications.
Yes, BMW has assembled a vertically integrated supply chain for its i-Series vehicles, but the composition of that supply chain is a case in point. Its capabilities are currently limited to a fairly specialized set of fiber forms and thermoset resin chemistry, and the high-pressure resin transfer molding process. Further, these choices had to be made years ago, during supply chain assembly. Debate continues: Were they the right choices? But one thing is certain. To take full advantage of carbon composites' unique properties, BMW will (likely soon) need to diversify its process capabilities and expand its material options. That could require forays into new territory for existing suppliers or a whole new set of supply-chain partnerships.
Bottom Line: Assembling a compatible and capable supply chain is critical to commercialization at volume, but automakers must avoid inflexible arrangements that hinder future adaptability.
Transformed vehicles and the carbon fiber end game
So what will building carbon composite manufacturing capabilities mean for future vehicles? That requires a nuanced response, especially when it comes to electric vehicles. Carbon composites maximize vehicle lightweighting potential (and, therefore, operational energy efficiency), but the emissions benefit of mass reduction is largely negated by the energy-intensity of carbon fiber manufacture. More energy-efficient fiber production would mitigate this. Powering the processes with renewable energy would help, as BMW has done via hydroelectric power at its Moses Lake, Wash., fiber facility. So would the use of alternative precursors (e.g., polyolefin). Further, recycling carbon fiber would reduce its lifecycle emissions and slash fiber cost.
In the longer term, the role automobiles will play in an increasingly urban world must be considered. If transportation systems shift, for example, to shared, service-based models in which drivers pay only for miles traveled rather than purchasing or leasing vehicles that sit idle most of the time, then actual vehicle use could be increased dramatically. Further, increasingly reliable electrified powertrains and distinctively durable carbon fiber composite construction could substantially prolong a vehicle's useful life. Increased utilization and extended life would mean a faster and bigger payback of the upfront investment in lightweight composite materials — and that would be true in terms of overall cost and emissions reductions.
Although many questions remain about the ultimate "end game" of automotive carbon fiber composites, their unparalleled potential for lightweight construction, durability, safety and simplified part production/assembly leave little question about their significant future role in vehicles.
The ultimate bottom line: There are winning pathways for carbon composites in high-volume auto production. Auto OEMs and their supply chains don't necessarily need to know which future scenario will ultimately play out. The key is to get started now.

Air pollutionis similar to the death rate from tobscco smoking.
It is much higher than deaths from auto accidents, said Fernando Zanetti MD Ph D at the meeting at the AHA meeting
Air pollution is a world wide enviromental threat recently implicated for several adverse cardiovascular effects including arterial hypertension.
It is a big contribution to global mortality, particularly cardiovascular mortality.
About 4.2 million deaths occur every year worldwide as a result of exposure to ambient pollution, according to the World Health Organization WHO.
One of three deaths, 34 per cent, from air pollution are due to ischemic heart disease and 20 per cent from stroke
Particular matter of 2.5, PM2.5, are important because they can carry toxic substances that can penetrate through the capillaries to the circulation
These particles are 32 smaller in diameter than a human hair. They are the size of a rat cell.
Air pollutions and exposure to these particles can trigger oxidative stress and systematic inflammation that leads to endothelial dysfunction, autonomic nervous system imbalance and vasoconstriction. A short-term increase in air pollution can raise blood pressure rapidly.
An increase in ambient PM2.5 by 10 micro per cubic meter is associated with 3 mm Hg increase in systolic and diastolic blood pressure in just a few days.
Long-term exposure to the particles may cause hypertension by impairing renal sodium excretion.
According to WHO 92 percent of pollution related deaths occur in low and middle income countries, India and China have some of the world's highest concentration of particulate matter.
In some countries as the USA lower level air pollution can still lead to increased blood pressure, insulin resistance, typ 2 diabetes, atherosclerosis, systematic oxidative stress and thrombosis.
Clinicians should be aware that cold temperature can increase blood pressure and hypertension is more difficult during cold and winter, besides the air pollution effects.

Environmental Noise Linked to Increased Cardiovascular Risk
Further evidence that people living in areas with high levels of environmental noise have a higher risk for cardiovascular events has come from a new study.
The study also suggests that this link is mediated by increased activity in the amygdala, an area of the brain involved in stress response and thought to trigger arterial inflammation.
"We found that people living in areas with a higher level of noise had increased activity in the amygdala, showing a higher level of stress perception," lead author Azar Radfar, MD, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, told theheart.org | Medscape Cardiology. "They also had higher levels of arterial inflammation and cardiovascular events. The results were the same after adjustment for many confounders, including air pollution.
She added that they can't yet say that noise is a causal risk factor for cardiovascular disease; larger, longitudinal studies and research assessing interventions will be required for that.
"But our results strengthen the link between environmental noise and cardiovascular risk," she said. "While we all currently focus on the known cardiovascular risk factors, such as diabetes, blood pressure, and cholesterol, we believe that, going forward, environmental factors, including noise levels, also need to be considered when thinking about the risks for cardiovascular disease."
Patients and their physicians should consider chronic noise exposure when assessing cardiovascular risk and might want to take steps to minimize or mitigate such chronic exposure, Radfar said.
The study is to be presented at the upcoming American Heart Association Scientific Sessions 2018.
Important Results
In a Skype "perspective" on the study, American Heart Association volunteer expert, Richard C. Becker, MD, University of Cincinnati Heart, Lung & Vascular Institute, described the results as "important and intriguing."
For the study, the researchers analyzed the association between noise exposure and major cardiovascular events in 499 individuals who were free of cardiovascular disease and cancer.
A subset of 281 subjects also underwent validated PET/CT imaging to assess arterial inflammation, and amygdalar activity, which was measured by uptake of the radiotracer fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG).
To gauge noise exposure, the researchers used the home addresses of the participants and derived noise-level estimates from the Department of Transportation's Aviation and Highway Noise Map.
The medical records of the participants were analyzed over a median follow-up of 3.7 years for the occurrence of cardiovascular events.
Results showed that individuals who lived in the areas with the highest levels of noise exposure had higher levels of amygdalar activity and more arterial inflammation.
Patients living in areas in the highest quartile of noise exposure had an amygdala/background brain FDG uptake ratio of 0.85, compared with 0.78 for those in the other three quartiles (P < .001).
During follow-up, 40 individuals experienced a major adverse cardiovascular event, with those in the highest quartile for noise exposure having more than a threefold higher risk for an event (hazard ratio, 3.35; P < .001).
This remained significant after adjustment for other cardiovascular risk factors and air pollution (P = .003).

It is amusing that we're all building variants of the same thing. We should definitely build some more common software features.
Here's mine in a state of pre-construction. It's 3 DMDs (2 Red for the score, 1 yellow countdown timer). The yellow DMD is a different depth (/construction) to the reds. I wish I'd known that before building the mount for it.
It's 900W by 600D, and used 50x30mm Alu box section for the frame, sandwiched between marine ply (now painted) and perspex for the front. It is very much a first iteration device.
Here it is pre-assembly (and painting). Ardunio Eleven in the box, power reg on the left, battery in the middle and lots of wires from the switches (score up/down x2, timer go/stop, and time up/down).
I'll publish my (grotty) code shortly at https://github.com/Bwooce/dmd_scoreboard, but it still needs refactoring and more importantly I have a 1Hz flicker issue -- I'm rewriting only the digits that change, but they all flicker on the rescan. I've tried scanning more frequently but it seems to tie itself in knots.
More photos of the built object later, it's all go now except for some Home/Away letters and some button labels.

IWD: Celebrating The Achievements of Women
Today is International Women's Day, with people on the island and across the world celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women.
More than four hundred years after a baby girl became the first child to be born in Bermuda, the island's women have continued to be pioneers in many facets of life.
A Bermudian woman played a role in bringing an an end to the atrocity of slavery in the 1800s, while Dr. Olivia Tucker became the first woman in the Americas to obtain a doctorate in pharmacy in the 1900s.
Plaque unveiled last month in honour of Mary Prince:
The accomplishments of Bermudian women span education, labour relations, medicine, law, entertainment, sports, politics, business, public service and nearly every genre you can think of.
In the sports arena, Bermuda has produced the reigning and multiple time world champion female triathlete, one of the fastest female para-sprinters in the world, a world champion boxer, the first black woman in the world to compete in Olympic diving, and numerous elite athletes in a myriad of disciplines.
Jessica Lewis dominates the field to win Bermuda's first Parapan medal in record setting style:
Bermudian women have represented the island in the Olympics since 1948, making appearances in swimming, track & field, equestrian, diving, triathlon, and sailing; with Bermudian women also making Paralympic appearances in equestrian, track & field and boccia.
The island's women have also made their mark on the fashion and entertainment scene worldwide, winning the Miss World Pageant, with Bermudian models also gracing the pages of top fashion magazines such as Elle, Cosmopolitan, and Glamour.
Gina Swainson wins the Miss World in 1979:
The island has also produced of one the world's most preeminent fashion stylists, as well as singers and dancers who have performed all over the world
The overall achievement of women in the political arena exceeds most nations worldwide, with the island producing first female opposition leader in the Commonwealth, and as some nations still are aiming to elect their first female leader – Bermuda has had three.
Bermuda's three female Premiers: Paula Cox, Dame Jennifer Smith and Dame Pamela Gordon in 2014
The 1998 General Election marked something which is very rare in the political sphere, with the election resulting in a nation handing power from one female leader to another; and in addition Bermuda is also one of the few nations in the world to have had a majority female Senate at one point.
And of course so many women are unsung heros as they live their daily lives, making invaluable contributions to the island across all spectrums, spanning every endeavour imaginable.
Above is only a small sample of the contributions that Bermudian women have made, and in celebration of Women's History Month and International Women's Day, Bernews will be featuring a special series highlighting some of the many exceptional Bermudian women throughout the month of March.

Tanzania's declaration of a timetable towards first production from offshore reserves in the Rovuma Basin underlines the government's willingness to engage with international oil companies (IOCs). But getting the proposed LNG export plant towards final investment decision (FID) still faces significant obstacles.
Energy minister Medard Kalemani told parliament on 28 May that the government plans to wrap up discussions in September, culminating in heads of agreement (HoA) as a precursor to construction starting in 2022 and running until 2028. Kalemani suggested the onshore plant, which it proposed to build at Lindi in southern Tanzania, would have a 10m t/y capacity.
Estimated reserves in those blocks are around 16 trn f3 of recoverable gas. Equinor, as operator, and partner ExxonMobil hold the license for Block 2, where reserves are estimated at more than 20 trn f 3 of gas in place. Shell operates nearby Blocks 1 and 4 in partnership with Ophir Energy.
Tanzania's overall recoverable gas reserves, mainly in its section of the Rovuma Basin, are estimated at 57 trn f3.Tthat's plenty for an export project but there are hurdles still to be surmounted.
The government invited Equinor to resume talks earlier this year, after previous discussions foundered.
If a HoA was to be signed, it would indicate Equinor and its partners at least remain attached to the project. However, it would be by no means a definitive step towards its realisation. HoAs may show commitment on both sides, but have little legal standing. An FID to give the go-ahead to the project isn't expected until 2022, even by the government's estimate.
The main beneficiary of an HoA may be Magafuli. He faces a general election in 2020 and will want to demonstrate that the national economic transformation promised by a $30bn LNG project-for a country with average annual GDP per capita of little more than $1,000-remains a possibility.
Tanzanians need only look across the southern border to Mozambique, where three LNG projects exploiting its share of Rovuma Basin reserves are either under way or expected to get the green light soon.
It seems unlikely that Magafuli's government is suddenly going to become a soft touch in talks with the IOCs, given the president's track record of combative dealings with foreign investors and lenders.
In 2017, he threatened to slap an estimated $190bn of back taxes on gold mining firm Acacia, claiming it had under-reported export earnings over 17 years. Efforts to settle that dispute, which have drawn in Acacia's Canadian-registered parent Barrick Gold, rumble on. The presidency also introduced more onerous local content requirements for the extractive industries sector, with little consultation with mining companies.
In June 2019, Magafuli said Tanzania was suspending the development of a huge Chinese-backed $10bn port development at Bagamoyo, which had been initiated by his predecessor. He called the terms on offer "exploitative and awkward".
Tanzania has also had a fitful relationship with the World Bank due to disagreements over economic and social development issues-which has resulted in it withholding financial support for various projects in recent years.
The government is likely to drive a hard bargain on maximising its share of revenues and gas from the Rovuma Basin project and getting early gas flow to the domestic market. But perhaps of even greater concern to the IOCs are doubts over the ability of the Tanzania Petroleum Development Corporation (TPDC) to function as a reliable development partner, given its recent track record.
The state-owned agency is trying to reach a host government agreement (HGA) for the building of a £3.5bn, 1,445km pipeline from landlocked Uganda's oil reserves to the Tanzanian port of Tanga-but it has hit delays. The project has become bogged down in red tape and issues relating to tariffs, government obligations and environmental standards, as well as a dispute over whether the pipeline holding company should be domiciled in the UK, rather than in East Africa.
"If the FID timeframe for the pipeline can't be met, it could raise questions over Tanzania Petroleum Development Corporation as a reliable and credible partner to deliver complex infrastructure projects in Tanzania's LNG sector," says Ed Hobey-Hamsher, an Africa analyst at consultancy Verisk Maplecroft.
"Will it be able to meet its fiscal contributions?" he questions, noting that under existing legislation TPDC would be able to a stake of take up to 25% of any development.
The allocation of gas from the project to the domestic market could be another sticking point. Magafuli is a proponent of resource nationalism and wants to maximise the amount of offshore gas going to the country's power sector and industrial base, as homegrown demand expands.
The president is also keen to convert Tanzania into a regional gas hub. On a trip to Kenya in July, Magafuli and his Kenyan counterpart Uhuru Kenyatta discussed the possibility of sending Tanzanian gas to Kenya.
Equinor says its production and sharing agreement allows for 10pc of gas to go to the domestic market. But the amount, cost and timing of any gas supply to Tanzania remains unclear. Even if the project progressed according to the government's schedule, no gas would be produced for almost another decade and the first commercial quantities to the domestic market would take even longer.
By then, Mozambique, which also wants to be a regional gas hub, may be in a position to supply swathes of east and southern Africa with the first domestic supply from its Rovuma Basin reserves potentially flowing in the second half of 2020s, if agreements can be struck with its IOC partners.
With start-up from any plant at Lindi set to be at least five years later than Mozambique LNG, that could mean Tanzania's domestic and regional supply aspirations may have to wait well over a decade before being fully realised.
Hobey-Hamsher says the ease-or otherwise-with which Mozambique can raise equity for its share of LNG projects should give an indication of investor appetite for similar projects in Tanzania. But, he adds, the caution among foreign investors engendered by Tanzania's tough attitude towards the mining sector may have scuppered the country's chances of capitalising on its Rovuma Basin reserves as swiftly as it would like.

…that's if it can get past ADHD, autistic spectrum disorder and PTSD, of course.
7 comments for "QTWTAIY"
Fake news to which the response is sod off.
Heh! Perfect!
Autism is real. It's a difference in brain wave processing. Yes, some autistics are poorly socialised but others like myself – are on the spectrum. My brother is very autistic and cannot meet new people without signifcant assistance. He also runs his own software company and aside from not answering the telephone does very well for himself. Is he 'mentally ill'? No more than the rest of us, he's just wired differently.
Errol, I hope I didn't give the impression that I thought autism is fake because I think it is very real and having watched the film Vaxed, I'm of the opinion there's more to it than the pharmaceutical companies are admitting.
It's criminal what is done to our children by so many people; it's not just the child molesters and the muslims.
Pharmaceutical companies strive to create customers, not cures.
"Pharmaceutical companies strive to create customers, not cures."
If only people would grasp that simple truth!
Actually curing people removes their revenue stream.
Thus pharmaceutical companies love every newly minted syndrome or disease.
That's why big pharma loves sodomy, it guarantees an endless revenue flow to treat the diseases associated with such a lifestyle..
Yes, it is indeed real. But it's also not, I suspect, as common as a brief glance at the crime news might have it…

Imagine this view — early morning hours, clouds skylarking golden sun rays, birds welcoming you with melodious songs as you walk among blooming mango trees. All your troubles lose importance when you stand under orchard trees. When the soaking rains suddenly stop, your feet sink deep into the soil. The smell of fresh mango spring up something that is worth more than money.
Doesn't it remind you the taste of mango?
To heighten your mirth and solace, UP Mango Festival has organized one such rendezvous, the Orchard Visit. Before traversing the mango lanes, let us see what a Mango Fest actually is!
About UP Mango Fest –
In the present time, more than 1,360 varieties of mangoes are available worldwide, out of which more than 1,000 are found in India. The factual diversity ranges from different various breeds to various sizes (from the size of a grape to a weight over 2.5 kg). This wide spectrum is a prime attraction for people from all over the world. Hence, UP Mango Fest aims at providing recognition to the King of Fruits by the means of an annual exhibition.
Objectives of Mango Fest –
Are you aware of the origin of Mango? Well, it is considered as a native crop to Indian Subcontinent, cultivated for over 4,000 years! Hence, an essential part of this fest is to pay homage to Indian farmers for running the cultivation of this traditional crop. The next aim is providing easy access to various breeds of mango and associated products at user-friendly prices. This is a major catch in the event where people taste selectively handpicked fresh farm-fruits. Another purpose to organize this event is to promote & patronize mango-growers to advance technologically to increase their production and product quality. Extracting maximum returns from the product, making provisions for sales of secondary sellers, tapping domestic and international markets and ultimately contributing to the national economy all circle the target of Mango Fest.
Pioneers of UP Mango Fest –
The first UP Mango Festival was held in 2013 as a motivational event to promote the regional breeds and their cultivators, to extend support to farmers and women in agriculture. It has been adopted as an annual fest ever since.
The UP Mango Fest owes its glory to the efforts of Jyotsna Kaur Habibullah, who led to the first successful fest in 2013. Madhvendra Deo Singh supported as an Agripreneur to uplift the nation and its people.
The 'Orchard Visit' had been held in Madhav Udyaan, Malihabaad until last year. In 2018, it will be organized in the Abbasi mango orchard which belongs to Shahid Abbasi to cover more orchards in the state.
About Orchard Visit –
The orchard visit is scheduled on 17th of the month in the Abbasi Orchard in Kakori. Promoting eco & agricultural tourism, giving an exquisite experience of biodiversity, educating the youth about fresh fruit benefit, etc are all targeted in this event. Quite a number of activities, fun competitions, educational programs are exclusively put up to jack enthusiasm in the audience.
From magnificent breakfast to tractor safari, preservative-free items to artistic blues, every loadstone is displayed. Various competitions include musical chairs, photography, ready-made mango items & mango eating competitions, etc are organized for all ages. Various fun activities, inclusive of a treasure hunt, orchard walks, tractor/horse rides, poster/props making, Quizzes and many more are conducted.
Even cultural parade is provided with major attractions like Awadhi Qawwali, folk dance forms, Purana-pan Daan, Zari kari, Chikankari, Kiss-ae-kakori etc are intensely enjoyed by the audience.
The 2018 Orchard visit is scheduled on 17th June from 7 am to 11 am.
