One of the things that makes the idea of starting a construction business so great is the fact that this industry has been on a steady growth for the last several thousand years.
As long as there is civilization, construction workers, constructors and civil engineers will be vital components of its growth and expansion.
Even more importantly, this makes the construction industry one of the most reliable and lucrative investments for anyone with enough interest and entrepreneurial spirit.
Nonetheless, starting a construction business takes a lot of work, seeing as how this field is so vast that you will first have to pick a sub-niche, which will further decide on the permits and the equipment you'll have to purchase or rent.
It also impacts the number of employees you will have to hire, as well as the skill set you will have to incorporate into your hiring policy.
Overall, here is a quick step by step walkthrough of all the things you need to do in order to start a construction business.
Step 1: Pick your sub-niche
Before you even start writing a business plan or gathering the finances (step 2 and step 3), you need to decide on the type of your construction company. You see, a small renovation contractor doesn't need nearly as many resources as a real estate developer or an owner-builder.
On the other hand, being an owner-builder usually tends to be a significantly more expensive plan than being a sponsor-builder.
For first-timers without any experience in this niche, the most sensible course of action would probably be to start out as general contractors or even small renovation contractors.
These two sub-niches are the most obvious choices, seeing as how they are the least expensive and have a beginner-friendly learning curve.
Step 2: Write a business plan
The thing about writing a business plan is the fact that it isn't exclusively a construction business-related problem. This means that if you've ever managed a business of your own, you already have the necessary experience.
You naturally have to start with a market research, which usually consists of two parts. First, you need to look at surveys coming from reliable organizations or even government institutions.
Second, you should reach out to local construction companies on your own and schedule a meeting. Choosing an area in development is also a solid plan, seeing as how local construction companies will already have too much work on their hands to see you as a competitor.
This can be particularly valuable since they might offer some invaluable advice or even direct assistance. For instance, they could send work they can't get to in time your way.
After surveying the area, you also need to write down your short- and long-term objectives, your mission and try to identify the key to success. Once you have all of this wrapped up, it is time to move to the next step.
Step 3: Gathering finances
A construction business is not a one-person startup that you can start with under $500 of investment money. The registration is costly, the equipment is expensive and so are the insurances and legal fees.
This is why you need to have a detailed plan of where all of this money will come from long before you actually launch the business. The most logical choice would be to apply for a small business loan but if you can't qualify for one, you still have more than a few options up your sleeve.
Due to the amount of money necessary for such a project, self-financing is seldom an option, which means that you might feel the need to sell some of the equity in your company.
According to numerous experts, this usually doesn't end up being the best choice, seeing as how it means giving up having full control over your company. Still, provided that you can find the right partner, this option doesn't have to be that bad at all.
Step 4: Licenses and insurance
Licenses and permits you will have to apply for usually depend on the type of construction you intend to conduct. For instance, being licensed to do plumbing and electrical works requires some additional certificates, still, this mostly depends on the region you are in, seeing as how every state has its own set of laws and requirements.
At the very beginning, you will have to register a business. Then, you need to start thinking about the insurance and the surety bonds.
The construction business is considered to be a high-risk profession since most of your employees either handle heavy machinery or work at great heights. Even things such as basic home remodeling involve a myriad of sharp tools and hazardous materials, which is why having workers' compensation insurance is an absolute must.
Of course, it goes without saying that this kind of insurance is vital in any other line of work as well, but nowhere is it as important as in the construction business. Apart from this, your employees will handle expensive machinery, for which you also need to get insurance.
Finally, as a new company, you aren't likely to get entrusted working on major projects without being able to offer at least some form of guarantee that you will get the job done.
One of the best ways to do so is by getting a surety bond. This way, your clients will be reassured that even if you fail to finish the work in due time, they would get compensated.
Step 5: Hiring labor and acquiring equipment
Once you've laid down all the groundwork for your company, it's time to start hiring the employees. Needless to say, this starts with a plan, seeing as how you first need an employer identification number (EIN), decide whether to hire independent contractors or employees and figure out your payroll system.
In the construction business, hiring independent contractors is usually a more common practice, mostly due to the fact that the next project may require more or less manpower than the current one.
As for the equipment, you need to decide which items you have to buy and which you should hire for the time being. For instance, while you have to buy all the safety gear like harnesses, vests and helmets, purchasing a crane right away may not be cost-effective.
Not only that, but the transportation of the crane across the country can be an incredibly difficult job, too. Therefore, it might be a much better idea to simply hire a crane at your target location. For instance, if you were to work on a project in Victoria, you could look up crane hire options in Melbourne.
At the end of the day, starting a construction business is far from simple, since the job itself is quite dynamic. This means that you will have to find a way to make your business adaptable and scalable above all, so that you don't have to suffer from setbacks, turnarounds and downtime at a critical moment.
The key to avoiding these issues, of course, lies in proper organization and solid foundations for your company. Needless to say, a step by step process can help you avoid the hazard of skipping or overlooking something vital in the process.

Nellie Lovett
by Frugal Finder
Sofid Hindhammer is the singer of the band Nellie Lovett. This all got started during the year 2010 when Sofia sat down and started to write some songs with Fredrick Jorstadius. They started out with just a few songs and within a short period of time they realized that they had written a whole album worth of songs.
The lyrics were written down to the songs that were first played on the guitar, and then later on more instruments were added; Kevin and Niklas Haggstrom played the drums and the bass. It was then that the newly formed group realized that the songs went smoothly with the instruments that were played, and more songs were written.
Once a full album of songs was written the group later realized that they needed a second guitar player. Oscar Hallberg, a friend of the twins who played the drum and the bass was available to be the second guitarist for the band. This band really rocks with their outstanding vocals as well as the unique sound they have. Be sure to give them a try by visiting their website or facebook page today.

Community Hope and Recovery Center:
Though a local agency has changed its name, the critical services it provides will remain the same.
For years, the Cass County Mental Health Department has operated under the name "The Human Resource Center for Cass County."
That all changed this week when the agency's executive board rolled out a new name: The Community Hope and Recovery Center.
"We're a whole lot more than just a mental health agency," said Diana Feigl, the center's executive director. <ahref="http://etypeservices.com/Cass%20County%20Star%20GazetteID497/"><spanstyl... 13px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">To view more, please log in or subscribe to the digital edition.

I wasn't sure which direction I was going with my cards today. I thought I would work on some Christmas cards but that wasn't the case. I thought I might play with the new supplies I just got the other day from Two Peas, but again, not the case. (I did use one stamp set). All of today's cards are fall themed. Appropriate I suppose. I am splitting the post into two posts so I can link up to the challenge over at Fantabulous Cricut. The challenge was to make a project using leaves. There were some leaves in that stash of stuff mentioned here so I figured, why not? I also used the heat gun that was in the stash, as well as the Stampin' Up blender pen (first time!) and used some of the Stampin' Up embossing powders. All in all I am pretty pleased. Here's what I came up with!
A gold embossed leaf on vellum.
Did you make cards or any other projects today? Perhaps you had a nice fall day where you are and you enjoyed that instead. Either way, thanks for stopping by. (here is the link to part 2)

Keith is a very experienced wildlife photographer with a deep love of the countryside, its flora and fauna and the landscape itself.
The theme of Keith's presentation was a view of a year through the lens of his camera.
Using a rich and varied selection of images, he lead us through the seasons from early spring to late winter illustrated with the animals, insects, plants and landscapes he loves which was so clearly demonstrated by the quality of the images and the care, patience and knowledge required to photograph each individual subject.
Not content with merely sharing his images, he engaged with his audience, explaining the methodology, techniques and tricks he employed to capture the images he wanted, whilst at the same time inviting questions and comments.
A measure of the success of Keith's presentation and his infectious enthusiasm for his chosen field of photography was that before anyone realised, it was nine o-clock and time to draw the meeting to a close and allow the community centre to close and lock up.
This was a most enjoyable and well received talk and well as educational, not only in relation to developing photographic skills, but also a rare insight into the beauty that surrounds us and so often goes unseen.

It's now been a few week since I got my N8 and I am quite confident that I have been in to just about all of it's nooks and crannies.
I am please to say that the only disappointment so far has been Nokia.
Lets start with the negative, to get it out of the way.
For some unexplained reason the device ships with no podcasting (podcatcher) software installed and despite my best efforts I have not managed to get one of the .sis files offered on the Nokia website to actually install. I have spoken to their help desk and been promised a call back but, as is their way, none has been forthcoming. It has been a couple of weeks since I last tried, and I will try again (as this is really the only fly in the ointment).
The only other thing that does not work is the Audible player (so I can listen to audio books) but I do not hold this against anyone (not even Nokia) as it is a very new phone and I am sure they will come up with a version that works asap.
So let's move on to better things…
I manually copied some podcasts and music to the N8 and, as is my way, proceeded to delete them as I finished listening. Arrggghh!! an old N97 "feature" appeared. One of the podcasts refused to delete and kept on telling me that it was "in use". This was not possible as I was playing other media in the player. I tried using the file manager to remove the file, but to no avail. Eventually I connected it to my laptop and delete the offending file (brute force and ignorance). I was expecting the file to still appear in the music player and clutter the place up for ever and a day, as it did in the N97, But NO!! When I went back in to the player it was gone. Joy!!
I have had a few syncing issues, duplicate calendar entries, addresses etc, but I suspect that was because I was using Goosync and the Nokia Ovi over-the-air Sync AND Ovi Suite. Since I stopped doing that and restricted myself to Goosync and the Ovi Suite things have settled down. I am syncing, via the PC to Google and Ovi, but can't decide if their is any point to the Ovi stuff.
Other than that the Phone is great! Email syncing with Gmail and Live Mail works well. Why would you want a Blackberry? I have loaded a game or two, just as a test as I really am not a gamer, and the graphics are stunning. The Camera is beyond fantastic, although I currently have 2 stuck MMS's that have gone but will not clear from the Queue. I suspect it is because I sent very high res images. Doh!
One bit of good news since I started writing this. I have found a site that has great Free Symbian applications http://www.drjukka.com/index.html I have loaded a podcatcher from here. It is a beta, and a little flaky, but does do the job and I am sure it will get better. I also have a file manager that makes the inbuilt one look like a bit of an embracement. The site has loads of other tools and apps that can really enhance your phone. Or bugger it up. So beware and load them at your own risk. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
One feature that I really like is the ability to lock the phone by sending a text message. One message with a secret code word in it and the phone locks itself, the SIM and the memory card. Fantastic if I ever leave the phone somewhere. It means that I know that it cannot be abused while I figure out what I have done with it.
Anyway, I will end now and may add some more comments later. Suffice to say that this is a major improvement by Nokia and it sounds like Symbian ^4 is on it's way which should be a good thing.
Shame Nokia support is so poor.
Anyone know how I can get rid of the stuck messages?

Well hello again! (Just so you know, in my head this is said with a really silly voice) 🙂 This week I have got the results of a bit of an experiment for you. I have had a Madeleine tin lying in my cupboard for absolutely ages now and had never used it. So I thought I'd give it a go and see what comes out – and I have to say for this being the first time ever I have made Madeleines it went quite well. Are they perfect? No, not really. But does that affect the taste? Definitely not! 😃 I know I really need more practice with these, but they tasted so good that I still wanted to share them with you. Fresh out of the oven they have lovely crispy edges, these soften up after an hour or so, so they're definitely best fresh, but will still be lovely and soft and buttery for a couple of days after. They may not have the characteristic hump on the back or nicely defined ridges on the front, but after taking them out of the oven I still devoured 4 of them in one go before it dawned on me that I shouldn't eat them all since I still needed them for the photos 😅
The method for making these is actually quite simple: whisk up eggs with sugar until really pale and voluminous, then fold in flour, baking powder and melted butter. I chose to flavour mine with lemon and raspberries, so added some grated lemon zest into the batter and put one raspberry into each one before baking. When researching Madeleines I found that some recipes called for resting the batter in the fridge, while others omitted that step. I have tried both while making these and have found there is a bit of a difference. If using the batter straight after making it, the Madeleines are very light and fluffy, whereas if you rest it for at least an hour in the fridge they are a lot denser. I preferred them with the rested batter, so I have written the recipe to include resting. But if you're very short of time, you can also bake them directly after mixing – maybe try both and see what you think. I also read in some recipes that chilling the tin is supposed to help as well, but when I tried it I couldn't really tell any difference. What's your experience with Madeleines? I'd love to hear what tips and tricks you've got to share 🙂
A very important step in this recipe is to grease and flour your tin – this way you can make sure your Madeleines pop out in one piece without breaking. You can use butter or oil for greasing, making sure you have greased the tin well but don't have any pools of fat anywhere. Then put some flour into each cavity and shake it to distribute the flour evenly. Then shake out any excess flour and you're ready to go! If you only have one tin, like me, you should wipe it out after every batch and re-grease and flour. Otherwise the little baked on bits in the tin will stop the next batch of Madeleines coming out as well and they will lose the pattern. One more thing I have learned while making these, is that a silicone tray is not ideal for these! They pop out really nice and easily, that's true, but because the silicone is soft each Madeleine has got a little flat foot where the tray was sitting on the oven shelf. So I think for future Madeleine baking (which I'm sure there will be!) I will get myself a metal tin to get them completely rounded.
Makes about 20-24 Madeleines
You will need
2 eggs
80g caster sugar
100g plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
100g butter, melted and cooled
1 lemon, zested
100g raspberries
- Put the eggs and sugar into a mixing bowl and whisk on a high speed either in a stand mixer or with an electric hand whisk for 8-10 minutes until really pale, fluffy and doubled in size. Sift in the flour and baking powder and fold into the egg mixture. Fold in the melted butter and lemon zest until combined. Cover with cling film and rest in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 190°C and grease and flour your Madeleine tin. Put about 1 heaped teaspoon of batter into each hole and sit one raspberry in the middle. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden brown on top. Turn out onto a cooling rack and leave to cool.
- Wash out the tin to remove any baked on batter, grease and flour again and repeat with the remaining dough and raspberries until you have used it all up. Serve dusted with icing sugar, if you like. Will keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days (if you can resist them that long! 😉).
Happy baking!

Who the h—- is Raymond Moore?
Well, I could not have known much about him even though I've been an avid tennis fan since Billie-Jean King's days, and as director of Indian Wells BNP Paribas tournament, I thought the guy should and would have enough tennis history to have stomached the kind of worse-than-trash-talking he did Sunday after the women's final between Serena and Vika.
I hastened to check him out on the web, and pardon me, two things stand out on not only how and why I could never have known about his tennis history but on why and how he could be so backward in ideas:
While I have never been a doubles fan in which Moore's highest ranking was 34, names that reigned when he should be playing well in the 70s do ring more than bells to me, and include: Nastase, Connors, Stan Smith, Newcombe, Roche … Moore was never a star and hated young ladies who work as hard as the men at their sports getting those big checks/cheques which he never earned.
Secondly, Moore – you really must pardon me if you are offended – is a relic of Apartheid South Africa, a past that he probably is finding difficult to shake off.
Let's face it: the women's game has brought perhaps more diversity of fan base to tennis than the men's game which seems to have stalled in the last may years because the top has become too predictable.
Here's the foot-in-the-mouth expletive of Moore who may now reside in the United States but who has his mind firmly planted in a time and place far in the past of hatred of a race but since – despite Trump's piggybacking his far-out ideas on the coattails of fresh rise in racist extremism borne of the Republicans' decades of divisiveness – official racism is frowned upon in his new homeland, Moore has to have his hatred directed at A Group.
And what better group than women, he must have reasoned.
Moore should be made to step down from such an exalted position because he does not believe in the ideals of the sport.
"In my next life when I come back I want to be someone in the WTA," Moore said, "because they ride on the coattails of the men. They don't make any decisions and they are lucky. They are very very lucky. If I was a lady player, I'd go down every night on my knees and thank God that Roger Federer and Rafa Nadal were born, because they have carried this sport. They really have."

Panaji, April 8 :
BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi should come clean on his marital status while filing his nomination papers, a Congress parliamentarian here demanded Tuesday.
Addressing a press conference at the party's state headquarters, Goa's lone Rajya Sabha member Shantaram Naik said Modi should explain whether a woman school teacher named Yashoda ben, who the media has often referred to as his wife, was actually his spouse.
"When Modi files his nomination form, he will now have to specify whether he is married or not. He cannot leave the marital status column blank," Naik said.
"Who is she? The media says she is Modi's wife. Should the country not know the truth?" Naik asked.
According to the Supreme Court guidelines, none of the columns in the nomination form should be left blank, he said.

Investing in offshore mutual funds can provide an investor with a number of substantial and lucrative benefits. Overseas can be an attractive investment opportunity, but the most attractive advantage in offshore mutual funds are the tax benefits. Foreign investors in offshore mutual funds are usually able to significantly reduce their tax obligations, if not altogether eliminate the amount of taxes they pay.
Usually offshore mutual funds are established in popular countries like the Bahamas, Bermuda, as well as the Cayman Islands. Typically offshore mutual funds are popular in these countries due to their unregulated nature of investments. Privacy issues make offshore mutual funds attractive as many countries have laws that protect revealing the identity of the offshore mutual funds investor.
There are dangers associated with offshore mutual funds. It is difficult to manage your funds, as the distance between the investor of offshore mutual funds and the country he is associated with allows for little first hand communication with the fund manager. Despite restrictions that are beneficial regarding offshore mutual funds, each country has its own set of regulations, making it difficult to be familiar with differing rules from one country to the next. Plus, while taxes are lower, the offshore mutual funds investor must constantly educate himself on issues that can impact his finances. Certain countries now require taxes to be paid on all generated income, regardless of where the work actually took place.
Offshore funds work on the same principle as mutual funds, pooling investors' money to provide the benefits of a diversified portfolio of investments. A fund qualifies as an offshore investment if it is incorporated offshore and used by a non-resident. These offshore mutual funds usually pay little or nothing in the way of local taxes, but they may receive dividends depending on where they invest the assets. The same is true of offshore banking since offshore banks do not always deduct tax from the interest as their counterparts would have to do.
If tax benefits are not the investor's main focus in using offshore funds or trusts, then there may be other options for offshore mutual funds. The type of investment chosen may simply not be an offshore account, due to regulations or simply a lack of market demand.
Investing in offshore mutual funds should be done with caution. Investors should be encouraged to select funds they are familiar with. Caution should be observed, especially with illegitimate investment companies targeting and preying on naive investors. Having a get rich quick attitude can lead your offshore mutual funds experience to be a negative one.

I can't promise that this post will be even remotely coherent because I am high on Benadryl at the moment trying to combat the horrific war going on in my sinus cavity. It's not cool. Also not cool is the color of the water behind me.
That water is straight up dyed green. Why? Why would you dye water like that? It's so weird! What if a white duck goes into that water? They would come out with a green butt! I have never seen a green butted duck, but I can assure you if I do it's not natural and probably came from this pond.
Other than having horrible allergies, I have spent the week doing the following things:
- Wondering if you can get rabies from a pig.
- Eating Chic-Fil-A Salads so much that we actually got a special Chic-Fil-A-List card. (No that is not a joke. It is literally called the Chic-Fil-A-List.)
- Googling Pig Rabies
- Reading old notes from High School that my husband found in storage.
- Having a nose bleed and wondering if that is a symptom of pig rabies.
I might have overreacted to the pig bite just a little.
I also bought purple lipstick. It's MAC Heroine to be exact and I love it.
Can ducks get rabies?

Val d'Isere Ski Accommodation
Val d'Isere village is the typical, picturesque Alpine mountain village, romantic and charming with its catered and self-catering chalets and even its larger hotels merging with the general atmosphere. Accommodation from luxury to plain, warm and comfortable is everywhere, with most places offering part board and chalets sleeping from two to 15 people. The town centre, with its direct lift access and nightlife, is the most expensive location, with La Daille the bargain basement end of town with good lift connections – great for serious skiers rather than party people. There's even a French YCPA all-inclusive hostel in the town centre with dorms catering for 18 to 40 year olds at a steal of a price.
Self-catering is a good option as it allows for meals out as well as quiet evenings in after a painfully challenging day on the slopes. Apartments are available to rent, and a number of bed-and-breakfasts provide an economic option. Room rates range from around €50 to a great deal more, with the quality of the skiing facilities and the ambience pushing prices above the average French ski resort. All-inclusive package deals can spread the financial load, but careful checking for exact content is recommended. Late availability websites are also worth investigating as discounts can be considerable.

If you've ever been on a summer hike after a busy week, you're probably familiar with the relaxing feeling that comes from being surrounded by tall trees and wildlife. Rebecca Lester, lead practitioner at Soul 7 spa in Toronto, believes that calm sensation comes from exposure to the Earth's electromagnetic field. "When you're walking in nature, you're connecting to the Earth's magnetic force. It brings the nervous system into a state of balance," says Lester, who believes the energy from the Earth's frequency travels into our bodies and encourages our cells to vibrate at the same rate.
At Soul 7, treatments for sleep, stress release or energy are delivered via pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMF) machines that mimic the frequency of these vibrations. PEMF techniques vary; sometimes a machine emits vibrations into the air or the bed itself vibrates while the user listens to rhythmic pulses and tones through headphones. If nothing else, the experience leaves the client feeling relaxed.
Over the last decade, PEMF has been used in localized forms to treat tissue damage, such as in a knee brace that emits electromagnetic waves into the joint for pain relief. (Similar treatments have been used in Europe for 40 years.) In North America, PEMF devices have been declared safe to supply "electromagnetic energy to the body to alleviate pain associated with various disorders and to treat wounds and soft tissue injuries," says Renelle Briand, media relations officer for Health Canada, but the technology is also being used to promote overall well-being in the form of full-body treatments, which involve an electromagnetic frequency machine placed beside a seat or bed. Dedicated "frequency spas" like Soul 7, as well as hotels and salons, are tapping into the more meditative benefits.
At the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess Spa in Arizona, a Himalayan singing bowl treatment has been introduced as part of the spa's increased focus on relaxation. In a plushly appointed room, multiple singing bowls are placed on the client's stomach and chest, or back, and a wooden dowel is gently run around the inside of the bowls. "The vibrations work to send messages through the body and relax the nervous system," says Taryn Mahalak, the spa's guest services manager.
Soon, Holt Renfrew will join in with new in-store Medulla & Co. salons in Mississauga's Square One Shopping Centre and Vancouver's CF Pacific Centre that will play a 528 Hz frequency while customers receive treatments. Owner Luis Pacheco has been playing this frequency in the basement of his Queen Street West salon since opening it in 2014 because he believes it helps put people in a positive frame of mind.
According to Bob Berman, who founded Soul 7 four years ago, vibrations and sound have been used to promote comfort and relaxation for centuries (think of that "om" you chant in yoga class). "I learned that outside of conventional medicine – especially [in the field of] neuroscience – there is overlap between traditional therapies and science," he says of the impetus for developing his spa's treatments.
Claims from wellness practitioners that PEMF can help balance the body are increasing, and medically speaking, the technology has been approved to help heal tissue damage. But for a growing number of people, the primary appeal of the treatment is relaxation, which far outlasts your average massage. In an increasingly frenzied world, vibration therapy might be just the right kind of buzz to calm us down.

My understanding is that after developing an unsecured web-service with Mule I can then secure it with proxy. Once I'm done with the proxy how can I hide the original (unsecured) web-service so no-one could access it (except for the secure proxy)?
Aug 28, 2018 at 06:59 AM, ullgren answered with:
Here are two ways you can achieve this
Use firewall or routing rules to only allow traffic from the proxy to the unsecured service.
If you deploy your applications in cloudhub you can make your unsecured service listen on the internal port and accesses it from the proxy using the
mule-worker-internal-myapp.cloudhub.io hostname (and the internal port).
Add API policies to the unsecured service to secure it using basic auth or client id/secret. Then alter the proxy to set and send the specific credentials.

Working in a financial institution has it's limitations when it comes to delivering truly unique pieces, but I was given an opportunity at Nationwide to challenge how the business promotes one of it's key accounts.
The marketing challenge for FlexPlus has always been how best to communicate the many and varied product features in a way that is engaging and enlightening.
I proposed that we create a rich piece of work that talked to the end user through a number of created persona's, each reflecting a benefit or feature. The user could engage and interact with short video segments which served as the starting point to a debate around the account that encouraged them to consider which features they would favour.

The Perseid Meteor shower is an annual event that begins in July, but peaks in mid-August. There are six types of annual meteor showers which all have different reasons in terms of why they happen.
As far as the Perseid is concerned, it is the result of the debris from the 109P/Swift-Tuttle comet. The Perseid meteor shower is the most visible and well-known of its kind.
Although the peak is during the night between August 12th and August 13th; as long as there is a clear sky and even better less light outside, people are still able to view them other nights in the months of July and August. NASA reports that as of Tuesday August 9th, approximately twelve meteors were seen per hour.
Unfortunately, there will be a full moon the night that the meteor shower peaks which will make it harder to notice the smaller meteors; however, there will still be a nice show to see. Also, it is expected that there will be more meteor showers before dawn on Saturday.
The best part about this show is that it is free and viewable from home. Some people also decide to go for a drive where there are fewer lights; making smaller ones easier to see.

C'mon, America, let's party like it's 1799
As the citizenry decompresses from the three-week post-Presidents' Day shopping frenzy, it seems apropos to ask: Is this holiday all it could be?
Where are the roving bands of festive carolers, belting out musical odes to William McKinley?
Where are the homes, festooned with red, white and blue bunting three months in advance?
And where's the wholesale gluttony? If John & Jane Q. Public aren't packing away groceries by the gross, it's just not a holiday in the good ole U.S. of A.
The good news is: We have the crass commercialism down pat. You can't point your face at a TV set without seeing a cartoon image of Honest Abe, speechifying about area rugs on sale at Carl's Carpet Carousel.
Or maybe it's George Washington as a talking dollar bill, dazzling consumers in the latest ad for Otto's Auto Paradise.
Memo to Madison Avenue: why do POTUS 1 and POTUS 16 corner the market as commercial hucksters? How about we drum up a little business for the other 43?
What true-blue American could resist James K. Polk touting mufflers, or Martin Van Buren pushing pianos? Why isn't James A. Garfield assassinating high prices for Mentally-Unbalanced Gary's Appliance Corral? Where's Ulysses S. Grant hawking sectional sofas at my friendly neighborhood Furniture City?
And it's not just about exchanging goods and services, gang. Get involved. Get funky, Oval Office-style.
A few sample examples: you could dash off a quick haiku reflecting the life and legacy of John Quincy Adams. YouTube your way through the collected speeches of Gerald Ford. Split a few rails before work.
And if you're thinkin' Lincoln, the stovepipe hat is long overdue for a comeback, and makes the perfect conversation starter at the office.
Nothing says "hail to the chief" like a Presidents' Day party — but plan it early before all the Warren G. Harding impersonators are booked.
Hire a DJ to crank up some John Philip Sousa or the vocal stylings of Margaret Truman.
Your costume? Pick up some flesh-colored facial putty and mold yourself a pair of Richard Nixon's jowls. Grab two friends and go as Zachary Taylor, William Henry Harrison, and Millard Fillmore — the famed "Whig trifecta." Grab three friends and go as Mount Rushmore.
Another option: go stag as "Presidentman," the one-man embodiment of the office, combining wardrobe choices, physical features, and off-putting facial hair of all 45.
Just ask your costume store clerk for the "basic" package, which includes the FDR cigarette holder, Teddy Roosevelt Rough Rider hat, Trumanesque bowtie, and Chester A. Arthur muttonchops, among other accoutrements. The "deluxe" includes your choice of beard. Why not pull out all the stops and go full Rutherford B. Hayes?
It's okay if the party gets a little blue. Maybe a Mary Todd Lincoln lookalike jumping out of a giant biscuit.
Nothing says "overkill" like a good parade. And the Main Street soiree, now in the works for 2019, is a doozy.
Picture a scene akin to the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade, if that parade included two non-consecutive, jumbo-sized Grover Cleveland balloons.
Picture yourself tossing shredded Iran-Contra document confetti as an aggregation of Lexington's high school marching bands plays the always-inspiring Electoral College fight song.
See freckle-faced American youth flinging fish to the presidential seal, as an army of theme park-style Trump mascots bombard delighted parade-goers with endless rolls of two-ply paper towels.
Who'll be tapped as grand marshal, you ask? The front-runners, at the moment, are:
1. The great-great-nephew of Woodrow Wilson's favorite neighbor.
2. A woman who once met Lyndon Johnson's dentist.
3. Fred Clodstock, the current co-assistant deputy undersecretary of transportation.
Not exactly "A listers," but we're working on it.
Some might say I'm going overboard. You bet I am. Let's do what we do best: Let's go overboard, America. We're one powdered wig away from partying like it's 1799.

Dale Hope waxes nostalgic about his ever-growing assortment of textiles and aloha shirts.
Dale Hope grew up with a love of aloha shirts that he saw all the other boys wearing. At home, he enjoyed opening up his father's closet for the explosion of print and color, and imagined the shirts would always be there for him to wear when he got older. But, he was mistaken.
His father, Howard Robert Hope, owned Sun Fashion of Hawaii, specializing in women's apparel, but the boom and bust cycles of the industry meant that the Hope family would often end a strong season buying a home, only to sell at downturns.
Frequent moves over the years meant the shirts the younger Hope loved disappeared over time. Vowing he would never see a treasured shirt go missing again, he started buying his own shirts. Th at has led to a collection of what he believed to be no more than 100 shirts, although, after making a bet with his wife several years ago, he counted more than 300.
Hope still doesn't keep track of new acquisitions, because he doesn't consider himself a collector at all. He just loves the nostalgia of the shirts, prized for their fabric and prints and the story they tell about the growth of the fashion industry here, and who we are.
"Wearing an aloha shirt is acknowledging you like the people who made them, that
Hawaiʻi is a very special place, and that you're fond of this place and the culture we live in. It's a great way to say, 'I love Hawaiʻi.'"
Hope's parents worked in New York's fashion industry before moving to Hawai'i. Howard sold fabric, but after seeing he could make more money creating and selling finished garments, started manufacturing clothing.
Helping out at the family's factory, Dale said he often begged his father to make him shirts, which meant stopping production of women's wear to cut and produce a boy's shirt, and that didn't happen often enough.
Hope said he started running to competitor Kahala to buy $8 shirts at the wholesale price of $4.
Then, as an eighth grader, he discovered Dave Rochlen's Surf Line Hawaii, which opened his eyes to the future Hawaiʻi fashion.
"In Tokyo, I saw this shirt from afar … I had never seen this print of early surfers in Waikiki and the label was also new to me—'Waikiki Shirts The Liberty House Honolulu.' I had to get it!" This shirt was created by a company in San Francisco called Art Vogue. The art was done by Wolfgang Wolff, who created a series of tropical designs that were called the Master Painters collection. He also illustrated the book I Went Native in 1939, which also carries a similar theme.
"He was doing things that no one else was doing. His use of prints, colors, advertising promotions with great-looking girls and guys; everything he did was fun and cool and completely different from what my dad was doing for resort shops."
When time came for Hope to go off to college, his father said he needed him at home to help with the family biz, and Dale had one condition, that he allow him to pursue the men's shirt business.
His father wasn't sure there was a market, but Dale insisted, "Dave Rochlen's still in business, so there has to be."
Entering the market just as Hawaiʻi began attracting millions of tourists, increasing the need for local apparel, Hope easily sold Liberty House on his shirts, labeled with his father's initials, HRH. Several other Ala Moana boutiques followed LH's lead, and with the mall covered, Hope moved on to Waikiki's many resort stores.
One day his father sat him down and said, "You're really in the art business; you're selling art."
While past generations of garment manufacturers relied on traveling artists to come into their establishments and show their portfolios, Hope said companies like Surf Line, Malia and Tori Richard were branching out, reaching out to artists and traveling, delving into different worlds of inspiration to influence their lines.
Then suddenly, at age 25, Hope found himself heading the family business following the death of his father. He wasn't certain that he could run a company on his own but he persevered, saying, "Early on, I started working with better artists, local artists, not necessarily textile artists. Eventually we started working with fine artists."
He'd long believed that a surfboard shaper is only as good as the surfer guiding the design, and feeling the same held true for textile designers, he provided as much information as he could on the various fish, canoe, surf and other themes for shirts created for Kahala, one of his favorite childhood shirt companies, which he bought in 1986.
He wanted each rendering to be accurate, "so that a mother, daughter or wife could trust that it would be something her husband, brother or son would love because of the attention to detail and the accurate representation of the canoe or fish, whatever we were working on."
He knew that if he could win over the five percent of people who understood the fine details, he could get a general audience to follow their lead.
In the 1990s, waterman Tommy Holmes approached Hope with the idea of collaborating on a book about the aloha shirt, but Holmes died before the project got underway. Hope felt it was important to document the history of the Hawaiʻi icon because by then, the vintage shirts from the 1930s through 1970s were already disappearing, along with the stories they told about the roots of the industry, from fabric to prints reflecting changing perceptions, interests and technology.
In the 1930s, for example, prints from Japan reflected artists' unfamiliarity with Hawaiʻi. The "Hawaiians" they depicted had Japanese features. Th ere was more accuracy in later renderings, and among Hope's favorite shirts is one depicting musicians and dancers he remembered hanging out near the Royal Hawaiian Hotel at pau hana time.
"The pants they're wearing, the color of their shirts, the coconut hats, it brings back a lot of memories," he said.
Working on the now-famous book, The Aloha Shirt—Spirit of the Islands, took Hope across the United States to scour vintage shops and interview dozens of collectors, who in the late '90s were sometimes spending up to $10,000 on a single shirt. If the market has waned, Hope says it's because few of the vintage shirts are available "because the collectors are holding on to them."
Th is year, he intends to start work on a documentary about the aloha shirt, and his long-term goal is to see the establishment of a museum dedicated to the aloha shirt.
In the meantime, he continues to browse the racks of thrift stores in search of the rare piece of fabric or print that catches his eye. "I can go through a store pretty quickly. All I'm looking at is the sleeve."
He also keeps his eyes on the side of the road for potential treasures when he's on his bicycle.
"It doesn't happen often, but once I saw a pair of palace shorts on top of clothing being tossed out. Looking through it, I found a red-and-white cotton shirt with coconut hats, and that's the kind of thing that makes me smile and really makes my heart sing."

This article attempts to state what the initscripts must and should do for the new init system being developed for OpenWrt. The goal is to deal with the race conditions that currently can occur, without losing current functionality.
目前启动进程由kernel bootstrap(这里暂不讨论),预初始化(preinit)和初始化(init)组成。Preinit用于完成init无法完成的任务,init则负责启动系统。
On a Debian desktop system there is an analogue to preinit, which uses initramfs to bring up the system enough to the point init can operate. Unfortunately initramfs is not an option on openwrt because it wastes too much space. The binaries and scripts in an initramfs cannot be retained for use in the booted system, unless they are copied to RAM (tmpfs) (if anyone know otherwise and can point out how, please contact the devs), which is why preinit exists.
Preinit looks to linux like the final boot stage to init on the rootfs. Preinit then mounts the root file system, does pivot_root to the rootfs, and then use the real init to replace itself. Basically it transforms intself into the 'real' init and rootfs.
* Reduce preinit as much as possible so that init does most of the work * Maintain failsafe ability, so that if mounting, etc, rootfs fails, or init makes system inaccessible, that there is a way to get into the device and fix it. * Not start hotplug at all in preinit … for that matter no processes except the real init should cross the preinit/init boundary. * Be configurable…it should be possible to configure rootfs mount, init start and anything else that can happen after the jffs2 is mounted (and therefore a writable config is available) * LED and network message functionality should be available to switchinit (which runs a script to shutdown process and make some other process than the current init PID 1, e.g. for doing a safer sysupgrade, and firstboot ('factory reset')) * Support /opt type deployments as well as extroot (that is, extra packages on /opt rather than by replacing the jffs2 rootfs) * No open file descriptors/references on the old rootfs when init is executed on the target rootfs (this is why we don't just mount/pivot in init).
* JFFS2 Formatting must be done on a fully booted system, because on some routers (like the Fon with NOR flash), formatting takes a significant amount of time during which the router would be unavailable for use). That means preinit can't be where the formatting happens. * Ideally the firstboot script will take the router back to state exactly like after flashing without configuration saved), including the needs for formatting jffs2 * Restoring the configuration needs to be done after the rootfs is mounted, but before most configuration is used (most configuration is used in init or init-launched hotplug). * Saving the configuration should save the jffs2 (for squashfs)/or boot rootfs config not the config on external root. This is because the external root will still be available on the external storage after flashing, but the internal (jff2 or other boot rootfs) won't.
1. Allow failsafe 2. If initramfs, do initramfs, skip rest of this list 3. For Squashfs: Mount jffs2 (if already formatted) 4. For External Block: Mount swap (so fsck has enough memory)1) if present 5. For External Block: Mount rootfs (checking first if fsck available) or tmpfs (if no rootfs yet) 6. For External Block: Mount marked fses before init (e.g. for deployments where /opt contains packages/script that need to run early in init) 7. Start init or kexec
* Enable script output to serial before failsafe * emit UDP messages with progress of boot, or at the very least failsafe prompt * Network or Serial access
* LEDs indicator for hit button
* Button (on any button during failsafe window, enter failsafe)
* Setting LEDs requires sysfs (/sys) * OpenWrt LEDs depend on specific hardware as defined by /proc/cpuinfo, so /proc is needed * Obviously /dev is needed
* LED indicator for failsafe mode
* failsafe-related items *must not* rely on changing config, only on what is available in the flashed image.
check if jffs2 formatted if formatted, mount it in a temporary location combine boot rootfs and jffs2 (if present) kernel modules and swap/rootfs config mount should have /proc requires /dev
load modules needed for swap (if swap configured) (from rootfs or jffs2) run any swap-related scripts from either boot rootfs or jffs2 using swap-utils from either boot rootfs or jffs2 (if present) do swapon for configured swap needs swap-utils and blkid (for UUID based config) on bootfs or jffs2
load modules needed for rootfs (from rootfs or jffs2) run any rootfs-related scripts (e.g. for mmc) (e.g. mount usbfs) check filesystem for errors if fsck present on boot rootfs or jffs2 (depends on blkid) mount target rootfs (depends on blkid on boot rootfs or jffs2) pivot_root move any fs mounted on old root to new root
load modules needed by fses (if not previously loaded) run any associated scripts (.e.g for mmc/usbfs) (if not previously run) check filesystem for errors if fsck present on rootfs (depends on blkid) mount fs (depends on blkid)
For Init: Configurable PATH and environment variables Either do init or kexec a kernel on the rootfs or other previously mounted storage
Split /etc/init.d into independent chunks
Support betwork rootfs, perhaps by using switchinit with network kept up 1) Roughly 1 MB of RAM for every 1 GB of disk to successfully fsck the disk. Source.

Capital Punishment Essay Sample
'Capital Punishment, also known as the death penalty, is the execution of a person by the state as punishment for a crime. Crime is known as a capital offence, or capital crimes.'1 Capital Punishment has been a worldwide issue, and has been elaborated since the Christian faith was introduced into the world, although the Christian faith was introduced when capital punishment was an accepted feature of the legal system, as represented when Jesus and a penitent thief were on the crosses…"We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong". It has and still being debated among a variety of countries and religions. Although only in recent times has capital punishment been questioned. The feature has still been retained by a few western European countries, or those of Anglo-Saxon origin in other parts of the world. 104 countries have formally abolished the feature from their legal system but some countries still retain the feature, but is only used under specific circumstances and capital offences, such as treason.
In the USA the practices varies among different states. Capital Punishment was partially abolished in the UK by 1965; at this time only major felonies passed the judgement of using capital punishment such as treason, piracy with violence and arson remained as capital crimes. By 1999 the act of Capital Punishment had been formally abolished as the home secretary (Jack Straw) signed the 6th protocol of the European Convention of Human Rights in Strasbourg on behalf of the British government. Lactantius was one of the first of the few early fathers to oppose capital punishment. The Christian community took a big part of the decision on whether to abolish Capital Punishment. Christians base their beliefs on the Bible and talking's from heads of churches such as the Pope. It was partly because of the Christians that the act has been abolished. One of the key figures of the time was Pope John Paul II – he spoke of Capital Punishment as the 'culture of death'.
In his encyclical 'Evangelium Vitae' he declared his 'near' total opposition to the death penalty, his 'near' opposition has only one case in which the punishment is appropriate "in cases of absolute necessity, in other words, when it would not be possible otherwise to defend society. Today, however, as a result of steady improvement in the organization of the penal system, such cases are very rare, if not practically nonexistent." At the time of voting for the abolishment of Capital Punishment, the Pope was one of the main Christian figures that opposed Capital Punishment, and voted for the abolishment of Capital Punishment. Although there was one other main group which also were against Capital Punishment, they are the synod of the Church of England (Vatican Council) they were the Church governing body.
In between 1929 and 1969 Capital Punishment was legal in the Vatican City, although it was only used to one specific case – if the pope was assassinated, although they never carried out any punishments. In 1969 Pope Paul IV removed Capital Punishment from the 'fundamental law'. At the time, these figurines took up a majority vote when abolishing Capital Punishment. By doing this, they successfully were one of the main figures to be featured in the abolishment of Capital Punishment in the UK. The protestant view of Capital Punishment was derived into factors where it is equally diverse. St Paul favours the death penalty and tends to take the New Testament into disagreement. The utilitarian approach is bound to regard punishment itself as undesirable, epically in the founding of Jeremy Bentham. Bentham argued in his book of 'Principles of Penal Law' that 'punishment is unnecessary if the offence will not recur; punishment is only appropriate to dissuade others from behaving in the same way; punishment is, therefore, to protect society for the future.'
The main issue of capital punishment in the modern day is whether the execution of criminals is ever justified and if so under what circumstances is it permissible? For my project I shall address the capital punishment from a Christian perspective, and I shall find and examine texts from the Bible with a conclusion of how Christians should view Capital punishment.
Christians often base their views on texts from the Bible and teachings from valued speakers and preachers with an authority background such as church priests and high valued figures such as the Pope. Although when basing views on the Bible many texts contradict themselves, this is a main cause of the division between Christians in modern debates regarding Capital Punishment.
The first approach that Christians take to appose capital punishment is reference to the Sanctity of Life. 'Sanctity of Life arguments in the West are primarily, though not exclusively, the province of Christian traditions.'6Sanctity means the quality of being sacred or holy. Within the Christian traditions, many versions of the argument exists but the basic proposition is always the same, that 'life is sacred and given to humans by God'. So God created human beings in his own image'8. Therefore each human being must be holy because they are made in God's 'image' and by insulting or harming a human being they are in result harming or insulting God. Christians believe that humans do not specifically have the 'image' of God in their visual appearance, but rather that we have the God image in our nature, which makes us special. In relevance to Capital Punishment the sanctity of life is embedded in the line of the bible, 'There is a time for everything.
A time to be born and a time to die …' this tells us that God is the giver of life, but also he takes away life when he pleases, but he does not give us as humans the permission or does not grant us the will to take away another humans life rather that its his purpose. In addition, until God gives us the right or taking away a human life, human lives should be preserved, and should live out for its full purpose, and the life should not be cut short as there must be a reason for why and when actions happen. The order from God is emphasised in one of the 10 commandments' thou shall not kill'10. Although in the commandment it specifies that 'kill' but what definition should apply to this word, and what acts should apply to it. 'kill' can have many different meanings, what Jesus or God is implying is the problem that exists. 'Kill' in some cases can be used in the good of mankind, such as if a person is suffering due to an unforeseen disease or infection or a person in a coma with a limited and not likely survival rate, and the doctor or family should come to a decision of whether to 'kill' the person for their own good. When approaching the word 'kill' in this situation, it gives a Christian a problem to where Sanctity of life applies.
The Bible gives many approaches to take when debating against Capital Punishment. "Whoever sheds the blood of man by man shall his blood be shed; for God made man in his own image."11 This shows that Gods providence will catch up with the slayer. This also contradicts itself as it says that if a person kills another 'slays' that person therefore the person that kills the original murderer is a murderer and so forth, therefore justice is served but because the 'slayer' it self is killed by another 'slayer' it contradicts the point of capital punishment. But the next problem is who gives the person the right or permission to kill the murderer, and in what cases is this valid? The argument that is backed up "but if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain; he is the servant of God to execute his wrath on the wrongdoer"12. In this case the person(s) carrying out the punishment is the 'servant' of God, therefore they are given the permission and the purpose to punish the 'wrongdoer'.
Also a more theological issue is to what degree we do as humans have the God's authority to carry out his judgement… "I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven."13 Peter has the power to 'bind and loose' which means to forgive and condemn the sins. But there is no limit to what degree is given to the Christian community. In the particular case there are only three possibilities. The first is Maximum authority which is when the community are shown and acts like God's agents on earth, by taking the leas from Genesis, which gives the authority for man to carry out punishment. Therefore if God's kingdom is on earth, then the face of evil action should be exercised.
The next possibility is Minimum authority is the waiting for the coming of God's final judgment, therefore for God to send his 'servant' to get rid of the evil. The last possibility is Retrained Authority, this is that the Christian community is given the authority to judge but they are not allowed to cross the line by creating terror, but are limited to create mercy and restraint. The contradiction occurs when the 6th commandment is brought into the argument, "thou shall not kill", and it specifically says that you should not kill, therefore it contradicts the whole purpose of capital punishment and the defence provided by Genesis 9:6 and Romans 13:4.
On the other hand in the Old Testament is has a positive view of capital punishment, evident in "But if there is harm, then you shall pay life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand…"14 It empathises that if a man commits any form of harm to a woman that is pregnant then they must be punished for each part of the body that they have harmed, 'eye for eye, tooth for tooth…' But when we read the first part of Jesus' gospel we find he rejects the Old Testament's morality 'But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also15', therefore Jesus says that when we are abused in any way, we should just ignore it and just move on, in modern day 'just walk away'. Jesus rejects the Old Testament morality because he teaches that we should forgive people of their sins. Although Jesus did teach us forgiveness and tell us to 'turn' the other cheek he did not refer to any form of Capital Punishment and kept silence upon the act but rather God's initiative in graciousness towards the most sinful not primarily murder.
'For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life'16. If 'God' gave his only son 'eternal life', why did Jesus die on the cross, this therefore gives a contradiction of God's will power, and truth in the Bible. On the other hand there is a brief outline of the truth as Jesus is resurrected for a short time and met three women… 'Suddenly Jesus met them. "Greetings," he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him'17. This therefore represents God's true power and wilfulness.
Christianity has four main theories that justify punishment overall; theses are Retribution, Deterrence, Reformation and Protection.
Retribution is the action in this case punishment, taken upon the criminal for satisfaction of the victim or the society; it is the theory of revenge and moral balance. Therefore the line from the bible… "But if there is harm, then you shall pay life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand…"18 is taken upon by the victims as for each crime that has taken place, the criminal shall pay in exchange in the form of punishment. 'In other words, a grievance caused requires satisfaction on the part of the victim to which he or she (or society) is entitled.'19 In modern language it is also referred to as 'payback' as the criminal is 'paid' back in full for what he has done and caused. Retribution does have its advantage of giving the 'satisfaction' to the victims and the society, but on the other hand it does not take away the 'grievance'.
Another problem with retributivism is that 'it offers no objective evidence nor any particular reasoning as to why we should act in this way' thus Wilcockson is saying that it does not give us a reason why we should do this, or if it has any effect on the criminal, it is simply relieving satisfaction which may not have any particular effect therefore no specific or valid reason. Although despite most of the objections, there is the feeling of satisfaction which attracts people to this theory in the system of punishment. Retribution is known as looking backwards at the crime and judging the type of punishment the criminal requires, thus it is also contrasted with Utilitarianism and it looks forward. Although some Christians have mixed feelings towards the theory of retribution as 'the individual is responsible for his or her actions, and part of growth into maturity is facing the consequences of ones actions, in this case wrongdoing'21. On the other hand this does not justify the point of retributive justice in the context of capital punishment, as in this case he/she would suffer a physical punishment rather than having a deterrent or reformative effect on the criminal which would lead to be far more effective and would not have the 'unspeakable wrongness, of cutting a life short when it is in full tide'.
Deterrence is a more common and favoured form of justice and is shown as the other end of retribution, as it has the forward looking view of punishment. It is also shown as a combination of the utilitarian principle and reformation, with a slight retribution but it is not empathised, and weakened. Deterrence is more effective than retribution, as the punishment I at minimum and is only justified at the rate of greater happiness, and therefore not only have justice, but also dissuade others from behaving in the same way. Therefore it is not only to protect the society in the present but in the future as well. Arguments against this theory are that it falls under two kings, observational and philosophical. The first that it cannot give any empirical evidence that the deterrence has had any effect on the criminal until he/she does another act of violence or crime, which may be in affect be to late to use punishment. Also the punishment is not based on the crime that they have done, but rather that they have committed a crime or an offence in the first place.
Reformation is another forward looking theory of punishment, and shares many of the characteristics of deterrence. The punishment has combined both means and the opportunity to give a chance to the offender to be accepted back into society. Also it includes some characteristics of retributive justice but in another form of observation and verbal grievances from the victim and the families, therefore guiltiness of the criminal is empathised and they feel they have 'paid off or atoned for their guilt'23. Another reformative aim includes a more 'compassionate' or 'benevolent' understanding of what led up to or caused the criminal to do the offence. On the other hand the questions that come into effect regarding reformation is why should the aim of punishment have to apply to certain moral values? The criminal has committed a crime therefore should pay back in full rather than given another chance. But then it comes back to the disadvantage of retribution that in effect the victim has simply overcome satisfaction but they still have the grievances.
Utilitarian's had a view upon the topic of Capital Punishment; although their views are not looked up upon much because Jesus himself was not a Utilitarian therefore it is not as valued as the Christian views. But in most arguments involving Capital Punishment, the Utilitarian approach is mentioned. On the other hand the Utilitarian approach is valued when brought up as a defence in arguments against Capital Punishment as it takes into the account of happiness, and the outcomes of the action. Utilitarian's find that if any actions is justified the balance of happiness and unhappiness must have the greater balance in happiness otherwise it cannot be justified. Therefore Utilitarian's can only justify Capital Punishment if the criminal has learned his lesson and stop him or her from repeating the crime, and by discouraging the crime upon other offenders to repeat. On the other hand the Utilitarian approach has its drawback is the fact of empirical evidence being evident in the situation. If not the Utilitarian approach must be dismissed.
Some Christians therefore support capital punishment on the grounds that God does not limit the authority of which He gives us when carry out punishment, nor does He specify what 'Thou shall not kill' applies to. Also that the contradiction that Christianity was introduced into a world that accepted capital punishment in the legal system, of which was also carried out on the 'son of God'. The majority of Christians that support capital punishment are also for retribution, as they see it in all its fairness of the criminal suffering for exactly what he has done, which is also defended and in the Bible, 'an eye for an eye'.
Also the fact that Jesus did not speak of any arguments against the reasoning or regarding the issue of capital punishment represents that it was not an important issue, and also that in turn shows the sanctity of life is not an absolute principal. Immanuel Kant views upon capital punishment were that of support, 'whoever has committed murder must die.'24 Therefore he says that the criminal of which committed 'murder' must suffer the same consequences, therefore must 'die' of which comes back to the support of retribution, of suffering the consequences of the actions. Christians appose to the grounds of reformative justice for the reason of it leading to a second chance for the criminal of which all he/she has to do is suffer the grievances of the society and victim. In short, in the general Christian view of the state of punishment capital punishment is not excluded, but neither is it required, rather what is required is using it in particular circumstances to justify it.
'For if justice and Righteousness perish, human life would no longer have any value in the world'.

Yesterday the Government announced it plans to release documents they hold on the drug Primodos. Labour MP Yasmin Qureshi brought the debate to Parliament. She believes that some of the families' medical records are missing. Health Minister George Freeman also said that he would set up an independent review board to consider the documents.
This drug was given to pregnant women in the 1960's and 70's as a diagnostic pregnancy test. Pregnant women were advised to take 2 pills. Apparently each pill was equivalent to 40 contraceptive pills so the women had a dose equivalent to 80 contraceptive pills during the critical early stages of pregnancy when the foetus is forming. Campaigners believe that the drug caused birth defects.
Families report missing fingers and toes, heart defects, kidney defects, brain damage amongst others. One of the campaigners spent a number of days searching the public archives at Kew. They found a document from the Drug Safety Committee which referred to the destruction of records.
Lisa Lunt, Head of Clinical Negligence, was approached by the BBC to comment on this document. Lisa said "I was astonished to see that a Government body was talking about the destruction of key records. It's important to know what advice was given to the GPs by the Committee. Full disclosure should provide some answers".
If you or a family member/friend would like to discuss your potential Primodos claim, please call one of our specialist team on 0151 236 5000 or 0208 209 0166. Alternatively, you can e-mail us at firstname.lastname@example.com or fill out our online contact form and we will contact you directly.

In cases in which medicine tries to use protein based drugs, the drug is always administered by an injection since these medications do not survive the body's digestive tract. Yet Oramed, an innovative Israeli Israeli pharmaceutical company located in Jerusalem, has been working hard to change that. The company has come up with a technology which helps an oral capsule pass through the gastrointestinal tract unharmed, and releases its protein based medication in the small intestine where it is absorbed by the blood stream. Once this new capsule passes testing stages and has been approved by the FDA, millions of people will benefit from higher quality of life and less expensive medical treatment. That's a sensational message for many people suffering from diabetes.
