Are Tiny Houses Realistic for Seniors?
By boomer5000 on May 11, 2016 in Budget Living

Rib Treatment
An often overlooked cause of pain and injury are the ribs and more specifically, where the ribs join the spine known as costovertebral joints
When we try to breath breath, the ribs move which help the lungs expand and contract which leads to air being inhaled and exhaled. When try to move our torso in any way, the costovertebral joints have to move to allow this movements.
When we try to move our shoulders or neck, the muscles that attach to the ribs have to be able move to allow these movements to occur.
If these costovertebral joints become stiff or the muscles that attach the ribs tighten up and restrict the natural movement of any of these structures, it can create pain which can be from mild and annoying to severe and sharp. The pain often refers to the chest and can often be distressing as it can affect breathing and both restrict the depth of breath able to be taken and make it painful.
To be able to all do the these movements pain free and with full range, its imperative that the costovertebral joints, ribs and muscles that attach to them are mobile and moving as they should.
Kate Elphick, Director of 3D Physio, has done extensive training the treatment of ribs and the dysfunctions that they cause.
If you have any of these conditions or pains or an injury that isn't settling, it would be a good idea to make an appointment and find out if your pain is coming from these structures.

Most homes in North America have hard water—89.3 percent in the U.S. and 85 percent in Canada.
It's all right to drink hard water, but it can cause trouble in your Calgary home:
Water softening solutions from A1 Chesney Service Experts can address your home water problems and bring you purer drinking water.
Whether you're starting to check out water softeners or you need water softener repair, our group of Experts are here to help.
Need a new water conditioning system for one low monthly payment? Check with us for more information about our Advantage Program™.1
It's economical to run a water softener. It needs less than $3 in electricity year-round.2
A water softener only needs about 2.5 pounds of salt. That's 80 percent less salt than dial-style softeners.
Soft water can make cleaning take less time, help your appliances last longer and help you avoid plumbing clogs.
Soft water helps water flow freely in plumbing. Hard water causes mineral coatings to build up in your pipes and fixtures. This can cause clogs and reduced water pressure.
Showerheads in homes with hard water can lose 75 percent of their flow rate in less than 18 months. Soft water keeps the luster and full flow for faucets and showerheads, nearly as well as the day they were put in.
Soft water is doesn't have a lot of minerals. It doesn't cause deposits in pipes or restrict water flow in fixtures.
Over time, hard water can cause minerals to build up in your washing machine and dishwasher.
The mineral deposits in hard water form limescale when they become warm. This can spread over the heating elements in your appliances, lowering life span and efficiency.
As a result, your appliances may need regular fixes or need to be replaced earlier.
Soft water protects the efficiency of water heaters.
Gas storage and tankless water heaters using soft water keep the factory efficiency rating over a 15-year lifetime. In comparison, using hard water for a gas water heater can cut efficiency by up to 48 percent.
If you have an electric water heater, up to 30 pounds of rock-like scale can build up in the tank from hard water. The scale is an inferior heat conductor. It can shorten the life of your heating element, because it has to work harder to heat water.
Hard water minerals build up on your skin and in your hair, causing it to become dehydrated. It can also cause painful razor burn.
Soft water is superior at rinsing soap residue, so you'll have softer skin and glossier hair. Plus, your clothes will look more colorful and your dishes will look more flawless.
When you have hard water, you have to use extra soap for a satisfactory lather. The minerals in hard water react with soap. This forms a scum on showers.
With soft water, you won't need to use as much time cleaning to remove soap scum. You'll also use less cleaning supplies.
Hard water has more minerals than soft water.
It's an appliance that takes out excess minerals like calcium and magnesium. It also lowers chlorine, iron and volatile organic compounds.
A water softener that's the appropriate size for your home will last for a long time. Its life span depends on the manufacturer and how much you run it.
Some water softeners are more efficient than others. As a result, the price may differ.
Costs can also differ based on how hard your water is and how much water you consume. If your water is especially hard and is used heavily, softening expenses will rise.
Softened water has all the natural minerals we need. While a small amount of sodium is mixed in during the softening process, softened water is absolutely safe to drink.
Water quality fluctuates by geography and processing levels. It can also be impacted by construction, mining, agriculture and mineral deposits your groundwater runs through.
You can discover if there are pollutants in your home's drinking water.
The Environmental Working Group maintains a free database of more than 30 million state records of tap water tests. About 81 percent of community utilities tested in the U.S. contain chemicals associated with cancer, according to the group's analysis.
A study by the Water Quality Association discovered a septic tank can't be damaged by brine let out by a water softener. The tanks that were reviewed were correctly placed and working properly.
Softened water may help reduce detergents being released into your septic tank.
Hard water problems? Call us at 587-315-5271 or request an appointment online.
One of our specialists can check if you need a water softener.
We back our work with a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee3 for a year. That means we'll get the job done right the first time, whether you need us to repair your water softener or install a new one.
1Some exclusions apply. 2Based on manufacturer's information and assumptions. Savings may vary based on the type of system you use. 3Not applicable to the Advantage Program.

Free Standing Tub in Master Bathroom With Marble Tile Flooring
This bathroom stared out with a huge roman raised tub, orange floral wallpaper, and a dark enclosed shower. We removed the tub surround and added a free standing tub, We softened the space by adding floor to ceiling drapery behind the tub. This created privacy as well as some softness to all of the tile and hard surfaces in this room. The walls got a textured wallpaper that added some subtle color and another texture to the space. The shower was a complete overhaul and got a new window, brand new tile and a frosted glass panel for some privacy while still keeping the overall feeling open and light. The cabinets got a paint job and added casing around the mirrors to create more of a custom feel.

It is so hard to believe that a quirky little game like The Sims could turn into a worldwide phenomenon. Who could have guessed that Will Wright's people simulator could have given rise to one of the most successful video game franchises in history? Since the release of The Sims on February 4, 2000, the game and its sequels have sold tens of millions of copies, as well as literally dozens of expansions and stuff packs. We've seen hundreds of pre-created Sims, families, and houses in dozens of neighborhoods and towns.
On top of this, thousands of fans have created countless new Sims, families, houses, neighborhoods and worlds, as well as custom objects, skins, clothing and hairstyles, and have pushed the games further than ever with massive modifications. The magic of The Sims is that each player can create a world of their choosing, and can play according to their own wishes. Each player has helped to create one of the largest and strongest fan communities around, and continue to re-invent The Sims in new and awesome ways.
This community has helped to grow The Sims Wiki too. In ten years, we've managed to build a wiki more than 10,000 articles strong, and with an active and vibrant group of contributors. Today we are a community of editors working together to collect and improve our knowledge about the games we love. Each new game and new creation means even more work for us to improve our encyclopedia.
In honor of these major milestones, we'd like to reflect on where we've been and where we're going. And, we'd like to celebrate.

Adam is a wonderful man with a loving heart and so much to give, and by the way, he's available! Sorry Adam, had to throw that in there!!! ;) I will readily admit that I am prejudiced, but he honestly is very kind and loving and adores children. Like so many young men before him, he has struggled to find himself and find his place in this world. I am so proud to say that he has found that place and has become a young man any aunt would be proud to call her own!
Adam is an outdoorsman and loves to do just about anything outdoors. He's not particularly interested in hunting, but does enjoy fishing. He finds so much pleasure in working in his yard and I swear I don't think I've ever met anyone who enjoys mowing their grass so much! In his early twenties, he rode bulls in the local rodeo circuit. Thank God, he gave that up before he got his neck broken! He's much more sensible now....WHEW!!!!!!
Try as I might, it is the most difficult thing to get a picture of this man with his eyes exposed AND open! Actually, I'm just teasing. I just wanted to post this picture because it has my sister and BIL in it with him. I'm pretty proud of all of them!
So, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ADAM! Your Aunt Di loves you and always will. Thank you for being in my life and for caring about your old aunt!

Google's Pixel 2 came out last October to fairly positive reviews, bringing a better camera and more powerful processor to the company's flagship hardware (though it did lose a headphone jack — thanks, Obama). Now, just a year and a half since the original Pixel launched, it appears that Google is no longer selling its first handset at the Google Store.
The original Pixel is no longer available through the Google Store
It's off the ProjectFi page, too.
Sponsored Links
9to5Google reports that the handset is also missing from Google's Project Fi page as well, but that if you're still in the market for the still-useful original Pixel, you can grab one from Verizon. The site attributes this to Google keeping excess inventory on hand, rather than positioning the older Pixel as a current less expensive alternative, as Apple has done with previous iPhone models.

Finding a Reliable Septic System Specialist
When was your last septic system inspection? How long since you had your tank pumped? If it's been a while or, worse, you can't remember, it's probably time to start looking for a septic system specialist. Caring for your septic system is an essential part of homeownership, so finding a reliable septic contractoris important. Here are four steps you can take to ensure you find the best septic system specialist in your area.

2. Do Some Research
When you have a list of recommended septic system specialists, take some time to do a little research on each of them. Review the services they offer, so you can determine whether they offer the services you need: if you need a septic tank installation, but a particular company only offers septic tank pumpingand repairs, you can move on to the next name on your list.
3. Read Reviews and Testimonials
Septic repairsare serious business and not just anyone can make them. That's why you'll want to read as many reviews and testimonials about pervious work as possible. You can also call potential companies directly and ask to speak with previous customers; they should have a reference list available. It's also a good idea to confirm that their technicians are appropriately certified.
4. Talk Directly with the Specialist
Before signing a work contract, it's a good idea to schedule an appointment with the septic system specialist to talk through your needs and expectations in person. This ensures that both you and the contractor are on exactly the same page.

A car bomb exploded outside the Italian Consulate in downtown Cairo early Saturday morning, killing one and wounding 9 people. The explosion occurred at 6:20AM and was heard throughout Cairo.
The consulate was closed and there were no civilian staff members amongst the injured, reported AP.
This was the first attack on a foreign mission in Egypt since the Muslim Brotherhood and other terrorist organizations launched a violent campaign against security forces 2 years ago.
ISIS claimed responsibility for the large car bomb, saying in the statement that the car contained 450 kilogram (990 pounds) of explosives, reported Fox 10 News.
Italian Foreign Minister Paolo Gentiloni issued a statement stating, "We stand close to people affected and to the staff, and Italy will not be intimated." Italian Premier Matteo Renzi contacted President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi expressing Italy's full support in Egypt's fight against terrorism.
In the statement issued from Renzi's office, he stated: "Italy knows that terrorism is an enormous challenge that deeply arks history in our time." Continuing, "We will not leave Egypt alone: Italy and Egypt are and will always be together in the fight against terrorism."
The U.S. Embassy in Cairo condemned the car bombing at the Italian Consulate, issuing a statement, saying: "We extend our condolences to the family of the victim of this attack and wish the injured a speedy recovery… We reiterate our steadfast support for Egypt in its fight against terrorism."
Pope Francis showed support to Egypt in a telegram to President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi saying, "political and religious players at all levels to unite their efforts to combat with ever more determination the plague of terrorism and to promote harmony and solidarity."
European Union foreign affairs chief Federica Mogherini also condemned the attack and expressed solidarity with Egypt. She stated, "Once again Egypt is under attack, once again Europeans have been hit by terrorists."
"We stand by the Egyptian authorities in their efforts to fight terrorism and bring the perpetrators of this attack to justice," she said.
Egypt has experienced an increase in terrorist attacks since June 29th, when top prosecutor Hisham Barakat was killed in a bomb attack on his car on the way to work. On Wednesday, July 1st, 21 Egyptian soldiers were killed in North Sinai, when ISIS affiliate Sinai Province launched simultaneous attacks at five checkpoints with the intent to take and hold territory in the town of Sheikh Zuweid. On Thursday, 20 Egyptian policemen were injured when a roadside bomb in the volatile area of North Sinai hit their bus.
Egypt has been calling on the international community to work together in a united effort to combat global terrorism. Egypt has lost over 600 Egyptian military and police since Morsi was removed from power in 2013 following a mass uprising by the Egyptian people.
Tera Dahl is Executive Director of the Council on Global Security.

After the First World War started, the flow of casualties soon overwhelmed the existing medical facilities. Large numbers of public and private buildings (often large houses) were turned over for use as small hospitals, most of which operated as annexes to nearby larger hospitals. Some hospitals were developed as, or became specialist units. Categories of specialism included mental hospitals, units for limbless men, neurological units, orthopaedic units, cardiac units, typhoid units and venereal disease. In March 1915, convalescent hospitals were formed, these establishments helped soldiers recover under military control.

Sometimes it's not spam: Shorecrest student wins prize from Princeton
Saturday, April 6, 2019

But when they didn't leave a message and called back a third time, she relented and answered.
To her surprise it wasn't a pre-recorded message offering a line of business credit or an offer to boost her website traffic, it was a representative from Princeton University letting her know that she had been one of only 27 students nationwide selected as a 2019 Princeton Prize in Race Relations Award winner.
"In the moment, when I finally answered the phone and heard I was selected, it was really shocking and exciting," said Ismail.
And for good reason, the award includes a $1,000 cash prize and an all expenses paid trip to attend the Princeton Prize Symposium on Race in Princeton, New Jersey on April 25-27.
At the symposium, Ismail and her fellow award-winners will attend presentations from national leaders and scholars as well as have the opportunity to engage in meaningful discussions about race and race relations with student leaders from across the country.
She didn't let the shock from the phone call linger long though. "Afterwards, it was just like back to normal, time to get back to work," said Ismail.
When she says she went back to work, she really means it. Ismail keeps a busy schedule of projects and initiatives aimed at giving back and making her school and community better places than they would be without her efforts.
For the past two years, she has served as president of the Shorecrest Black Student Union (BSU), where she helps lead and coordinate a variety of events and activities, including the incredibly powerful and moving annual Martin Luther King Jr. Assembly.
She has also helped support and guide the monthly Shorecrest Race and Equity Forums. The forums offer students the opportunity to engage in open and honest discussions of a variety of important topics.
Ismail used her experiences as a leader at Shorecrest to focus on making a larger impact in her community. Last year, she worked as a Youth Outreach Leader for the City of Shoreline.
In that role, Ismail helped support youth all across the community by providing mentorship, information and support to help them access programs and services that could be of benefit to them. She also helped coordinate and facilitate a forum with youth and law enforcement to help foster an open dialogue around issues of race and police brutality.
"I really wanted to help underprivileged youth and teens because I understand the plight of what it's like to be part of an underprivileged, underrepresented group," said Ismail. "It's important for us to be able to talk about the issues that go on, but it's also really important to act on them."
The work she has done for her school and community has certainly earned Ismail a lot of fans and support, but none bigger than Shorecrest Principal Lisa Gonzalez, who first met her in middle school.
"Mo is a natural leader, activist and a young visionary who is willing to ask the hard questions while also bringing people into the conversation with compassion," said Gonzalez.
"I have had the chance to watch her growth since middle school and know that this powerful young woman is launching into the world with a good head on her shoulders, a loving heart and clear eyes focused on social justice. Mo is a wonderful ambassador for our community and I couldn't be prouder to have her representing Shorecrest High School on the national stage."
After attending college Ismail hopes to continue to make a positive impact on the world around her by starting a career in social services or child protective services.

There is also a dramatic rise in the number of layman users
Internet offers virtually deep down penetration across the globe, and the profile of its users in addition has gone a sea change. Over time, the internet has come out from the prerogative of select users of scientific and defense community to mass accessibility. And probably this can be a temperament with this so called web age in which people have just started to treat pcs as just another thing that is certainly indispensable to modern individual existence.
Today the utilization of computers is usually not necessarily limited to hightechnical professionals, nevertheless has spanned over all functions and disciplines including common man for the purpose of his everydayobjectives. Hence, there is also a awful availablility of users so, who browse through the Internet on a routine basis, and their surfing expertise are at finest rudimentary. Period is fresh for making the web site fantastically user friendly.
This new breed of users with nominal exposure to surfing is susceptible to encounter more difficulty in a web site that may be otherwise easy to use. Here is a major point to not be skipped out until this new breed of surfers can be a great potential client for your site when the requirements are recognized and correspondingly catered to.
The necessity of the moment is to make your site excessively intuitive so that they are generally not lost on the web, and they do not just wind up surfing in large hopelessness. They should be guided through basic features to help them know what to perform next to acquire what they are eager for.
This sort of users does not have fundamental skills to search the stuff relating to the Internet effectively, faces learning curves in browsing through web site and looks in astonishment while dealing with typical irritations on the web. Their very own utter incapability to understand your web blog often cause them to another web page in search of efficiency, and and also constitute losses for you! Creating your site in such a fashion as will enable them to learn quickly and avoid them the way to enriching experience is what is required regarding this.
But before making the web site person friendly, you have to get the heart beat of the surfing around tendencies and habits of layman users.
An informative look at the on line behavior of layman users
Here are some interesting observations over the typical behavior of relatively recent users although they use the Internet.
It is quite amazing to learn that new users have been identified to practice a novel option to log on to a specific web site whose URL may them. They've been observed to type in the URL on the internet search, and subsequently luyenthitoefl.net hitting same WEB ADDRESS in the came back search web pages.
A report right from an online research organization, reveals the truth that search queries just like "", "", "Google", "Yahoo? etc . will be among the top google search queries. It implicitly demonstrates that people tend not to seem to be aware that they can access any site by simply typing its WEBSITE in the internet browser address bar council.
While probing the went back search internet pages of Google, new users tend to read the titles on the pages, which they think will be closest to their search conditions, and click on such back links. Hence, the titles for the pages in search results must be strategically developed.
Haphazard bits of information clustered all through the site not only mix up the users yet also frighten them. Unsystematic organization of content at the page and a low depend on readability make them feel that desired details is nonexistent on the site. The randomness of articles simply becomes them away because they do not bother to look profound; they simply scan and skip.
It has been found that new users are not more comfortable with pop-up commercial windows. They mistakenly close other windows, ponder more than how to return, or even close dial-up interconnection in their make an work to deal with the pop-ups. It has been seen that layman users are not comfortable to manage multiple browser windows.
Aiding layman users to browse with confidence and ease
In the light of the above observations, a number of simplistic features might be combined with your web site in order to touch the targeted traffic of layman users. Definitely such features will be contributing to the overall wonderful of your web page in a confident way.
You cannot afford to miss the listing of your web-site in visible search engines. It has nothing to carry out with your off-line advertising campaign even so aggressive clearly. Such marketing will naturally help your URL gain popularity, although chances are certainly not distant that some new users end up complaining that the web site could hardly be accessed. Not to mention right here, getting classified by the search engines has its own package of benefits.
If you wish to contain your own start site for the users of your site, it pays helping put search engine backlinks or a search box onto that page. This will help layman users to stick to your start site.
It is apparent now that the titles of this pages in search results are vital for clickthroughs. Therefore , the title of your site should be according to the key words you are optimizing the page for the purpose of. The title ought to be enticing and relevant enough to be visited. Each web page of your site has to be one by one optimized for a key word for a good visitors.
There can not be any solid rules in using pop-ups and e-zine subscription home windows. It essentially depends on the proficiency level of users who visit the site. It is always considerably better have evaluation run of such features before employing them throughout the site. When you experience the loss of traffic because of such features, it is a simple indication that such features are not for your site. The crowd visiting this site is dominantly layman users, and therefore it is to be a lot more user friendly.
The learning edge
Briefly, capitalizing on the idiosyncrasies and rudimentary expertise of this fresh breed of Online users can wide open the gateway of more visitors and hence even more revenues that can eventually lead to your internet success.

Menu Covers and Binder Covers... Can Be Revenue Producers
Ralph Salisbury
Have you ever been distracted by an image in an article causing you to abandon the article? This recently happened to me while accessing an article in the HBR Blog Network. The theme of the article was 'To-do Lists' and how these commonly used lists can be incorporated into and enhanced by today's and tomorrow's imminent technology. See: http://blogs.hbr.org/2013/10/reinventing-the-to-do-list-a-multi-billion-dollar-opportunity/
The subject image was of the six 'post-it-notes' at the beginning of the article. I read each one, and surprisingly each had a common theme: Good health. It is encouraging for me to 'surmise' from this image the direction of our thought processes: Healthy lifestyles and healthy environments. I do not, however, believe this to be guesswork on my part; it is real, it is universal, and it continues to grow. Environmental concerns, once thought to be fad, are now being addressed with genuine interest in all industries because 'customers' have developed a genuine interest in their health, a concern about the environments in which they live and the products they buy. By working to improve products with an environmentally responsible quality, business has learned a customer base grows.
The hospitality industry has been one of the most responsive to environmental concerns. Look at the great number of healthy food selections now offered by all categories of restaurants throughout the world*, note the growth in responsible packaging for healthy foods, and the impressive environmental advances made in renovation and new property construction together with policy and procedures put in place for property operation. There truly is a concern about our health, the environment and sustainability.
When purchasing accessory items such as Menu Covers, Binder Covers, Wine Lists, Check Presenters, and other Presentation products, choose environmentally responsible ones, and make this fact known to your customers. It will be to your advantage.

It feels like yesterday when Heirs was announced (it was in April when I read the news of Lee Min Ho signing the drama penned by star writer Kim Eun Sook) and I can't believe it is finally ending next week. The whole Heirs experience has been a mixed bag, but mostly satisfying for me. Plotwise it has nothing new to offer but its strength lies in its moments and characters. I wish it was more like a rom-com with a lighter tone but I'm satisfied more than 90 percent if not a cent percent contentment. It plays by the rules and is thoroughly entertaining with an OTP of infectious charm at its centre. I'll keep rest of my thoughts for the detailed review I'll be doing later after Heirs completes its run. Also, rating wise, Heirs is a hit with gaining double digit numbers in all the episodes and maximum rating reaching more than 20%. Yay.
Here is another beautiful and soothing number from the soundtrack, which is played during the romantic scenes between Tan and Eun Sang. It made great impact during that party scene when they had an innocent yet sensual encounter and I instantly fell in love with this velvety song. Later it was also used during their kiss scene as well as when Tan spent the night at Myung Soo's room. The title of the song is My Wish and it's sung by Lena Park. Basically a ballad, it has a gentle lightness and softness which is absolutely winsome. Serene and romantic.

April – June
Time passed by so fast, Samantha has grown up in age. Will her cognitive development grow proportionally with her age and maturity? It is a challenge to work with Samantha on cognitive development. Daily she has to gone thru all the therapy lesson including Rebound Therapy.
Colors. Her mother has been teaching her on naming the colors since she was age 5. Till today she did not grasp the concept of names of colors. However she possesses the skill to sort out the color blocks according to the color grouping. Since Samantha is able to sort it out, I have transcribed it onto paper form for her to match 6 colors. To my surprise she can't match the color? Is she color blind? If she is, how can she sort out the blocks according to the color? Instead of giving 6 colors to her, I have narrowed it down to three colors. Step by step I coach her to allow her to find the colors to match. This also shows me, although Samantha looks at the worksheet, it does not mean the details are captured in her brain, hence she may not able to see what is printed on paper.
As we work on the color matching concept by narrowing down for her to focus, Samantha begins to match the colors. Though at the moment she still can't name the colors.
Alphabet. Another challenging area to work with Samantha is to see prints or letters. The same thing happens: she can't see prints … not even match letter "a" to "a" in both 3Ds form or worksheet.
In June, Samantha's mom asked me to take them for a healing rally "God's power". We went on Friday despite of heavy rain. The believers come to pray for her. Truly on the following Monday I can see Samantha is different. She begins to have the ability to see prints / letter. She even can match alphabets while earlier she can't see prints. We do the matching on work sheet and printed alphabets. She also has the ability to match words like "Pot to pot", "peg to peg". Once her mom ask me, is there a miracle healing? My reply is "yes, if you believe. Now Samantha can see prints, don't you believe it is a miracle healing"? All glory unto God.
This development was seen and witnessed by one of the student's mother, she herself also can't believe. Samantha failed to see print/ alphabet and now she can see alphabet.

SO rumor has it that if you live in the UK or in Canada you can preorder the new core i7 cpu. Of course you would be paying almost double what the projected price was for the 3 flavors but I guess if you want to make sure your one of the first one's to get it then you'd pay huh. Interesting though that there are no options to preorder in the U.S. yet. Me, I will attempt to get 1 when they do come out for the projected price previously stated and if I can't then I guess it wasn't meant to be. Anybody else here at HH gonna try to get 1 when they first come out. Curious I guess

Posted Friday morning, August 10, 2018.
President Jimmy Carter signing the federal budget into law as budget director Bert Lance looks on. 1977 AP photo by Harvey Georges via the Washington Post.
Another trouble with delivering benefits in the form of tax credits is that average taxpayers tend to see tax laws as written to benefit the rich and penalize them. They're not wrong. So tell them there's a benefit right there in their tax form and they're likely to respond, "What's the catch?" In 1976, one of Jimmy Carter's campaign themes was that the tax code was "a disgrace to the human race." So when he came into office, one of the first things he wanted to tackle was tax reform. Unfortunately, he found out what other reform-minded politicians have discovered. Reform usually means rewriting policies according to dictates from lobbyists. Carter, however, hoped to do three conflicting things with tax reform. Make the tax code fairer for working people. Bring inflation under control. And move towards balancing the budget. None of these happened.
As Stewart Eizenstat writes in his memoir of working as one of Carter's top aides, "President Carter: The White House Years"…
By the time tenacious interest groups tighten their grip on their special privileges, reform usually yields less revenue than its believers hope for--and therefore is less help in reducing budget deficits. Carter's brave attempt did not succeed. The reason was best summed up by the aphorism of Senate Finance Committee chairman Russell Long: "Don't tax you; don't tax me; tax that man behind the tree." Everyone theoretically favors closing loopholes in return for lower rates, until it is their own treasured loophole that is threatened.
The bill Congress finally presented Carter was a frustrating and maddening disappointment to him, especially since many liberal Democrats had a hand in it and were pushing him to sign it. His inclination was to veto it, but since it included many tax cuts Democrats told him a veto would hurt them in the upcoming mid-terms. Carter had wanted to close many loopholes that favored the well-off but which working people couldn't take advantage of…
One loophole that particularly struck him was the deduction for "ordinary and necessary business expenses" which had been broadened to include country club dues and even football tickets. During a briefing with [Treasury Secretary W. Michael Blumenthal] and the Treasury's tax experts, Carter exclaimed, "Club dues are a rip-off of the average guy; most club dues are for self-gratification and not legitimate business; I want club dues eliminated entirely." In his message to Congress on January 20, 1978, a year to the day after his inauguration, business deductions would be ended for theater and sporting tickets, yachts, hunting lodges, club dues, and first-class airline tickets---and only half of the infamous three-martini lunch would be tax deductible. He was particularly eloquent in declaring that the average taxpayer was subsidizing the privileged few who can routinely deduct these kinds of expenses, while the average worker had to pay out of his own pocket with after-tax dollars, for a "rare night on the town..."
In the end, the bill Carter reluctantly signed into law ended "deductions for state and local gasoline taxes and for hunting lodges and other facilities when used for business entertainment, although country-club dues continued as deductible business costs."
"President Carter: The White House Years" by Stewart E. Eizenstat is available in hardcover and for kindle at Amazon and as an audiobook from Audible.

Last year the the functionality of the new library was the key talking point, with the Emily Wilding Davison building just opening, and this year was no different in having a significant issue that provided an opportunity to engage in lots of discussion.
As you will be aware, the University is currently in the process of formulating a new academic structure. This essentially involves the dissolving of 'faculties' (where departments sit under) and replacing them with 'schools' – meaning that processes can be made more consistent and the current gap between the College Executive and departments can be bridged.
Having highlighted to the College the importance of being transparent with students on the restructure, Deputy Principal (Academic) Professor Katie Normington, joined us in Medicine to present on the restructure. The presentation outlined the reasons behind the restructure, the benefits to students as well as the potential risks and how these can be mitigated.
Attendees then had the opportunity to ask questions to Katie and we had some excellent questions ranging from queries over joint honours students to the availability of specialist staff and how academic representation would work in this new structure.
Due to our other commitments to conduct in Education Council, we quickly ran out of time to cover everything so we took other questions that were handed in at the end of Council; we will be going through these questions and will be publishing a summary in order to answer all of the queries.
Elsewhere in Council we discussed assessment methods. When running to be your VP Education, I outlined that I wanted to assess how we get assessed. This was primarily driven from an innovation point of view, and an aim to best prepare all students with the skills to be prepared for life after university. We had some great brainstorming to get the conversation started and I will be looking to send out some documents in order to gain more insight into what you as students want from assessments.
I also gave my officer update which included topics ranging from study spaces, academic societies, assessment methods and academic representation.
Lastly, we also filled the last position on Education Committee in electing our PGT Rep! This position sits with me, as your VP Education, on various college committees and ultimately seeks to represent all PGT students across the university. I am sure you will join me in congratulating Charlotte Gautheir on being elected to the role.
Our next Education Council will be the much anticipated Course Rep Conference on Wednesday 30 January. Look out for our quick summary of questions regarding the restructure coming out next week and as ever, if you want to come and have a chat about the restructure or anything else academic, then please come up to the SU and see me or feel free to pop me an email.

This set is great for a background on which to glue some of the beautiful flowers I stamp with the many Altenew flower sets I have.
I have hoped that something like this would be available. So much easier than to have to mask the border of my paper to use a much larger background stamp. Thank you. I hope there will be more in the future.
It's a perfect addition to my card making supplies. I use it to make fun backgrounds.
so many ways to use these background stamps, together to cover the entire background or use separately
Can be used for almost any sentiment. I've used all four blocks and am impressed!

While the vibrancy, depth and overall health of the Canadian capital markets have been internationally recognized, Canada, like all markets, has criminals who prey on the investing public. We do everything in our power to identify, investigate and prosecute those individuals. We are concerned with how these enforcement efforts have been mischaracterized and wish to highlight some specific issues with the Globe's coverage:
The CSA supports having a national dialogue about what more can be done to deter recidivists, however, that discussion must be based on facts and must involve all participants in the justice system, including law enforcement.

SEOUL • Some people, it seems, are only too happy to kill others' love for K-pop darlings Blackpink.
Seizing on any issue, however trivial, they have put the quartet, and their followers, on the defensive with their criticisms, even if some of the girl group's alleged misdeeds and misfortunes are not of their own voluntary making.
Take the example of their video for Kill This Love whose content must have been shaped by the folk shooting it. In South Korea's highly competitive K-pop industry, the strategy for idol groups is tightly mapped by their agencies.
So was it Blackpink singer Rose's fault that national public broadcaster KBS is not showing the Kill This Love video because she is seen not wearing a seat belt in a driving scene?
No wonder fans said Rose and group member Lisa broke down on stage in Hamilton, Canada, last Saturday when Blackpink performed that leg of their North American tour.
While Rose told the crowd that she teared because she was touched by the rapturous reception the girl group received in Hamilton, netizens think she was devastated by the spate of recent bad news.
Last week, a ticketing website said Blackpink's second Dallas-Fort Worth show was cancelled
While critics took the chance to gleefully attribute that to poor demand, level-headed folk called for an end to such speculation pending an official announcement, reported the allkpop website.
Naysayers also pounced on another incident at an earlier Illinois concert.
They complained that when singer Jennie suffered a wardrobe malfunction, she should not have stopped dancing and left the stage to fix the problem.
They labelled that act as unprofessional – abandoning the other three members on stage – but Jennie's supporters asked whether she was at risk of flouting decency laws if her top came off and exposed her chest.

A new journey with offroad
Nowadays it is turning into more and more in style offroad, or extreme driving on unpaved tract. It comes in 2 varieties: offroad and rock travel. Offroad is comparatively easier than rock crawling; counting on the terrain and therefore the kind of categories and car routes are divided into many classes: extreme, with the highest degree of issue, appropriate for the toughest cars and intimate with drivers, adventure, indicating the vehicles heavily modified, however with less problem than the extreme, sport, requiring sizable talent, but less complicated to defeat and do – dedicated little changed for offroad cars and novice participants events. If we wish to prepare the car for driving within the area, undoubtedly take a glance at the corporate Smittybilt. Offroad is primarily a decent preparation of the car – if solidly to travel over, the car are able to get through the foremost troublesome piece of land.
The foremost common styles of terrain that occur throughout offroad events this route road, gravel, sand, mud, stones, water and forests, taking into consideration the passage of a very tall grass and scrub. Rock creep is an extreme variant while the cross-country, requiring significant changes in automobile construction and therefore the highest driving skills. Rock crowlig is grown in mountainous areas, leading through the rocks, mountain trails and different, very troublesome to beat obstacles. Dedicated to off-road cars are all kinds and kinds of off-road vehicles, jeeps, trucks with simple machine drive.

Emission norms are getting tougher day by day. Moreover, consumers demand both power and efficiency. To meet all the requirements, manufacturers have started producing small capacity turbocharged engines. Turbocharged cars are fun to drive yet fuel-efficient. If you happen to be a user of a turbocharged car then you must be aware of premature turbo failure and the huge cost of repair/replacement associated with it. This comprehensive article covers the symptoms, reasons and prevention of a turbo failure.
The symptoms of a Turbo Failure are –
- Loss of power and poor acceleration as against the car's performance before
- Noise
- Blue or grey smoke caused by the burning of oil leaked through worn oil seals
- Lowered engine oil level on the dip-stick
The reasons for the Turbo Failure are –
1) Lack of lubrication –
Oil inlet supply restriction, incorrect gasket placement or poor quality of lubricant leads to high temperature and metal friction. Eventually, it destroys the turbocharger due to fatigue cracking and material transfer.
2) Oil contamination –
Carbon deposits in the engine oil obstruct the lubrication as well as damage to the bearings. Also, a major engine overhaul would suspend steel shots into the engine oil which can damage the bearings of the turbocharger.
3) Damage to the compressor & nozzle assembly due to the foreign objects –
The entry of a very tiny piece of debris into the turbocharger can do huge damage to the compressor and nozzle assembly due to its high rpm. Damage to the compressor and nozzle assembly causes an imbalance in the turbocharger eventually destroying the whole turbocharger within some seconds.
4) Overspeeding and Hot Stops –
Modding the car for extra horsepower and torque can lead to excessive load on the turbocharger exceeding its designed limits.
Hot stops can be defined as turning of the engine soon after an aggressive run. This puts a high temperature on the critical components of the turbocharger.
Prevent the Premature Turbo Failure –
- Always follow the preventive scheduled maintenance of your car. Get the jobs done only at the authorised service centre for professional care and protection of your car's warranty.
- Engine oil is the blood of the engine and the turbocharger. Keep your attention on the engine oil's quality and level. Replace the engine oil and engine oil filter on the recommended interval.
- Air inlet is the only entry for the foreign particles to enter inside the turbocharger. Get the air filter cleaned periodically and replace it on the recommended interval. If you happen to be living in a region with more dust particles in the air, replace the air filter more frequently.
- NEVER perform a hot stop. It is the rudest thing the owner can do with their turbocharged cars. The turbocharger might still be running even after turning off the engine due to its high rpm. Always practice turbo-idling.
How to Practice Turbo-Idling?
Turbo-idling is a very simple process to cool down the turbocharger.
- Whenever the journey is about to end, refrain from pushing the engine at higher rpm. Try to be gentle on your engine for the last 3 km by maintaining the rpm below 1500 yet not lugging the engine.
- On reaching the destination, always put the car into the neutral and wait for 60 seconds on idle condition before turning off the engine. This will allow sufficient time for the turbocharger to cool down.
Turbochargers are designed to perform lifelong and the turbocharged cars are always fun to drive. Practice the above rules and have fun with your car for unlimited miles.
