A gas boiler, fuelled with natural gas, oil, LPG or propane (etc), is the most common kind of appliance used for central heating in Grinshill Shropshire SY4 and throughout the United Kingdom. It heats water which flows through pipes or a radiator, and it is used for hot water in the home as well as for a central heating system. It is also used for radiant floor heating systems. An annual boiler inspection and maintenance check by a registered "Gas Safe" gas boiler service heating engineer is essential for safety and comply with UK Law.
The Engineer will make sure that the heating system is installed according to regulations during the annual central heating and boiler inspection, that it is safe and it is working efficiently according to the manufacturers' instructions. If this is done properly every year, gas boiler breakdowns and the resulting emergency repair work can often be avoided.
Grinshill Shropshire SY4 Super Low Energy Combi Boiler Inspection – A Number of Things You Will Want to Take Note Of
By opting for a condensing boiler to convert energy of natural gas to heat your home or apartment you are not only helping yourself by saving on heating bills but also make possible environmental well being while helping the whole world.
Wasted energy = wasted money
Whatever the fuel type may be, is said to be efficient about 90% at the lower end and - 98% at the upper. Your 15 year or so old traditional oil fired boiler is at least 12% less efficient than this. Whether it is gas or oil, you can imagine how much fossil fuel the high efficiency boiler would conserve, how much CO2 emission it would curtail and the pile of moolah you would save during the next 30 or 40 year plus life span.
What makes a condensing boiler more efficient?
A traditional gas burning boiler or a condensing boiler of recent vintage technology is not different to any oil burning boiler in basic working mechanism. The extra bit of efficiency in boiler is due to the condensation of water of combustion from steam state to liquid, releasing the latent heat of vaporisation. (Sadly if not for the condensing boiler, this huge percentage of heat energy will be sent up through the chimney as flue gases, without the home owner having a clue to what's happening). Inherently any boiler can achieve fuel efficiencies of 90% upwards easily.
System Technology
A centralized heating system, incorporating a condenser boiler depends on several other system components. These would include the control system, DHW cylinders, Terminal units such as radiators etc. Unless there is a collectively efficient system in operation the ultimate overall efficiency will not be as desired.
Proprietary Brands and advanced designs
Proprietary brands such as Viessmann, a world leader in this field have developed technologies such as their stainless steel Inox-radial heat exchangers for natural gas combustion, capable of extracting almost to the end of last wave of thermal energy otherwise just wasted. Vitotronic controls (microprocessor based control system), Vitocell domestic hot water cylinder, lambda pro control combustion controls (a metering system that adjust the combustion process to the properties of any gaseous fuel) are other advanced features developed by them. The ultimate result is a very welcome consistent fuel efficiency of about 98%.
The Top Reasons Why You Should Have Your Boiler Serviced
It is important to maintain boiler systems properly. The best way to do this is to get your boiler serviced frequently. Experts and manufacturers themselves recommend getting your boilers serviced at least once a year, to be on the safe side. Servicing a boiler can make it more efficient and increase its performance. This keeps it in a good and functional condition, making it last longer. Although the sound of servicing your boiler might seem expensive, especially on a yearly basis, the cost will only go up the longer you put it off. In addition to this, it can become harmful and dangerous to all those living in the same house.
A yearly servicing is the recommended frequency; however, there are a few exceptions to this rule that must be taken into account for. Moving into a new house with a boiler already installed needs to be serviced too before it is used. You cannot be sure how old the boiler is, or how long it has been since it was last used or serviced, so it is always best to be safe than sorry. Also, it is recommended to get your boiler serviced if you have been on an extended holiday where no-one has been at home to use the said boiler. A dormant boiler can be filled with anti-freeze that must be drained before use once again. Also, once again, after not being in use for a long time, you cannot be sure the condition of the boiler. There may be clogged or broken parts which to someone who isn't trained in the profession of servicing boilers would be unaware of.
The best time for getting a boiler service done is in between August and October, the last few months of summer. Not only is this after the holiday period, where you might have left the boiler unused for some amount of time, but these months are the in the off-peak season so many service providers would be both available and able to offer you a discount. This means that you can save on money and get a good, professional service from a trained and licensed expert without any hassle. Leaving the service for even a few weeks after this time period will see a rise in the price and the busyness of the workmen as winter comes around and boilers start to break and need fixing.
A good boiler service provider is someone who has a good reputation and is qualified. Finding someone like this isn't hard, as there are many professionals out there, however, it is essential that you make sure that the person you choose to hire is an expert in the boiler servicing field. Checking a person's or a company's licenses can be easily done by logging onto the Gas Safe Register in the United Kingdom and looking up their names. The industry of boiler servicing is very lucrative, with many of your local company's and independent workers offering competitive prices for a variety of different services including boiler servicing. It is important not to get too distracted by the pricing when hiring someone to do the job.
Your boiler system manual is the best place to start when looking for information about its servicing. The manufacturer can also help you by answering any questions you might have that are not mentioned in the manual. Phone numbers and email addresses are usually provided with the manual, but if not, it can be easily found on the internet.

A gas boiler, fuelled with natural gas or propane, is one kind of appliance used for central heating. It heats water which flows through pipes or a radiator, and it is used for hot water in the home as well as for a central heating system. It is also used for radiant floor heating systems. An annual maintenance check by a registered gas boiler service heating engineer is very important for safety and efficiency. They will make sure that the heating system is installed according to regulations, that it is safe and it is working efficiently according to the manufacturers' instructions. If this is done properly every year, gas boiler repair work can be avoided.
In order for the boiler to be serviced properly it needs to be working.
Gas boiler service varies according to the type of boiler, but there are some things that should be checked on in any boiler. This will be done by the engineer according to the instructions in the manual which came with the boiler when it was installed. The main things that should be checked are:
1. check for leaks
2. check the gas pressure
3. check if it is producing carbon monoxide
4. check if it is functioning properly
5. check the overall condition
6. check the pump and valves
7. check for enough ventilation
8. check the safety and cleanliness of the flue
Old cast iron boilers that have an open flue will need to be dismantled and cleaned which is not needed for modern boilers. They have a systems performance test. Depending on the condition and type of boiler it can take anywhere from a half an hour to an hour and a half for a complete gas boiler service. Contractors are often willing to do servicing, especially during the summer, for greatly reduced prices, hoping that you will call them later if you need any gas boiler repair work.
If there is concern that a boiler is not working properly, and gas service is required, there are some things that can be checked:
1. Make sure there is enough water pressure by looking on the pressure gauge. It should show 1.0-1.5 bar.
2. Make sure the pilot light is lit.
3. If the pilot light is lit but there is no hot water, or it is unusually noisy, it may be a gas valve or pump failure in which case an engineer needs to be called.
4. If there is hot water but no central heating, the diverter valve may not be functioning.
5. If the top of the radiator is cold it may need to be "bled". There is a bleed valve near the top that will release air. If it is cold on the bottom there is most likely sludge or rust blocking the radiator.
If there is no heat at all check the gas and make sure it is turned on as well as the thermostats and control switches. Make sure the pump is running and make sure the pilot light is lit. Many of these minor gas boiler repairs can be done at home with the use of the manufacturers' manual. If you can identify a problem, but are not sure how to fix it even with a manual, call a heating engineer for routine gas boiler service.

When he started to pull back, I shot forward and kissed him again. He released my hands, and I grasped the bulge of his shoulders. His teeth grazed my bottom lip in an almost-bite, and I lost it.
All my excuses were buried deep beneath the heat of his body against mine. I pressed my hips into his, and he groaned into my mouth. I couldn't control myself. My hands trailed from his waist to his chest, and he held me tighter in response. I spun us, and started pulling him toward my bed.
His hand slid down to my ass, and his kiss was so devastating and consuming that I wanted to rejoice or scream or cry.
The back of my knees hit the bed at the same time that he pulled away.
His eyes were dark, and his breathing labored. "Whatever stupid reasoning you've got for staying away from me, it's wrong. And I won't stop until I've proven it to you."
Then he left, and I fell back on my bed in shock.
It took nearly five minutes before I could do anything but sit there with my fingers pressed to my swollen lips.
As soon as I heard Mom bustling around downstairs, I pulled myself out of bed. It was still dark out, but even without a sufficient amount of sleep, my strength felt renewed. Maybe Cade had kissed some confidence into me the night before. Whatever the reason, my heart was eerily steady as I dressed that morning. I put on the scoop-neck shirt that I'd started the day in yesterday.
I pulled my hair around to the side and did a quick loose braid that left the other side of my neck and my birds completely visible. The shirt only showed the very tips of my branches, but the lines were dark enough such that they couldn't be missed. I replaced the plastic retainers with my usual ear piercings.
This moment was years in the making.
I'd spent so much of my life, too much of it, altering myself to please other people. This was my crossroads moment, and nothing would be the same on this new road, including me.
Before I could change my mind, I went next door to the guest room and knocked.
Cade opened the door, already up and ready for the day. His hair was damp and curled around his face. I could smell the familiar, masculine scent of him from here. Last night came rushing back at me, and it took a serious amount of self-control not to throw myself at him.
He said, "Good morning."
His tone was cautious, like maybe I had come to deliver an angry tirade of my own. But I wasn't angry, just . . . on the verge of hyperventilating.
All the calm I'd woken up with disappeared upon seeing him. Somehow, he made it all feel real. My control crumbled, and my throat felt like it was going to close up. He must have seen the freak-out coming because he pulled me into his room and closed the door behind us. I turned my back on him and said, "Just give me a second."
I pressed my palms into my eyes to try to stop the tears that were building there.
"Max . . ." His voice was soft and came from right in front of me.
"I'm okay," I whispered without lowering my hands. I hated getting emotional, but nothing was worse than getting emotional in front of another person.
His arms circled me, and I sunk into his chest. My breath rattled in my chest, and I fisted my hands in the front of his shirt.
"You can do this," he said.
There it was . . . the belief. He had far more in me than I had in myself. If nothing else good came of this, at least there was that.
"It won't be easy," he said. Understatement of the year. "But your parents love you, Max." I laughed, even though nothing was funny. My throat was thick with emotion. He brought a hand up and pulled my hands from my eyes. "And if they can't see how amazing you are, they're blind."
I swallowed, and my throat felt raw. I didn't know what I'd ever done to deserve him. I didn't know why he would come anywhere near someone as toxic as me, but I was thankful.
Silence filled the room, but it was the comfortable kind of quiet that Cade and I had had before everything had changed. I didn't say anything because I didn't need to.
He held out his hand, and I latched onto it like I was falling and he was the only thing that could save me.
"I'll be with you every step of the way."
Some of the tightness in my chest eased, and I nodded.
"Thank you," I said.
"I don't know why you're thanking me."
I remembered the way he'd put himself out there last night and said, "You faced your demons, and came out on top. So, maybe I can, too."
He smiled and squeezed my hand.
"Come on, Fearless Girl."
I was far from fearless, but knowing he thought I was provided me with half the courage I needed. We left the guest room, and descended the stairs together.
Dad was watching television, and Mom was messing with something in the kitchen when we came downstairs. Michael was on his phone, and the Antichrist was flipping through a Better Homes and Gardens magazine.
Bethany saw me first, and her jaw dropped. God, it felt good to be the cause of that horrendous look on her face. I hoped it stuck that way.
She called, "BETTY!" Her face turned smug, and I thought back to Cade's question the night before. Why did she hate me? Probably because, just like my parents, she liked her world nice and neat and clean. I wasn't any of those things, with or without the tattoos.
Cade squeezed my hand, and I took the deepest breath that I could get. Mom came in from the kitchen drying a pan with a towel and said, "Yes?"
Bethany pointed in my direction. I took a few steps until I was all the way in the living room. Cade kept close by my side. Mom's eyes settled on me, but it was several long seconds before she really saw me. She dropped the pan and it clanged against the hardwood floors. Her face passed through a spectrum of emotions that normally I would have found funny, except that I had no idea which one she would end up landing on. It was like Wheel of Fortune, only all the good possibilities had been removed. Dad looked up from the television just as Mom said, "Mackenzie Kathleen Miller, how could you do such a hideous thing to your body?"
It stung, but I kept my expression as blank as possible.
Dad asked, "What horrible thing?" He turned to face me, and I saw the anger wash over him. Out of the two of them, he was the more unpredictable one. He stood slowly, his motions stiff and small. His eyes flitted between my neck and my ear piercings and back again.
"What in the name of God have you done?"
His tone was soft, but clipped. This was the scariest version of him—still and silent and like the calm before the storm. Mom came to stand by Dad, and he took her under his arm. She turned weepy and mopped at her eyes with the back of her hand.
"Why does she do these things to us?" she asked him.
All my anxiety ignited into anger.
"I didn't do this to you. I made a choice about what to do with my body. It had nothing to do with either of you."
My father exploded. "You mark yourself up like some kind of . . . tramp on the street, and you expect it not to bother us?" He didn't raise a hand to me, but he might as well have. It hurt just as bad.
"Mick." Cade's voice cut in, hard and firm. Dad paused, and I could see his embarrassment and fury at having someone outside the family witness this conversation.
"Son, I think you should leave us alone to deal with this."
Panic crushed me, and I crushed Cade's hand between mine in return.
"With all due respect, sir, I'm not going anywhere."
Mom sputtered in disbelief, and Dad fumed. I didn't want them to hate Cade for something that was all about me. I took a step closer and said, "I know you don't like these kinds of things, but—"
"Don't like them?" Mom's voice turned hysterical. "We raised you in the Church. You've been taught since you could speak that your body is a temple, and now you've destroyed it. You know what the Bible says about those kinds of abominations."
"The Bible also says to give away your riches, but you guys sure haven't bothered to do that. And I didn't destroy my body. There are no needle tracks on my arms. I'm not addicted to anything, nor have I become a prostitute, Dad. This is art that means enough to me that I made it a part of myself."
"Squiggly lines mean a lot to you?" Dad barked. "And birds? Yes, I can understand why birds mean a lot to you."
"Freedom means a lot to me."
"I'm glad to hear that because you're going to get plenty of it. If that's what you do with the money we give you—mutilate yourself and ruin all your chances of having a decent, respectable life—then we're done helping you."
That news hurt a lot less than I thought it would. In the grand scheme of things, their money meant nothing. It was the least important thing they could take from me.
"You've not been interested in helping me in a long time."
Dad said, "I mean it, Mackenzie. You better hope your little music thing works out because you'll not get a decent job anywhere else looking like that."
I couldn't stay there anymore without doing something crazy. I gritted my teeth and spat out, "My name is Max. Max. And that 'little music thing' is my life. I'm tired of you trying to turn it and me into what you want. I'm not Mackenzie, and I'm not Alexandria."
Mom gasped like I'd slapped her. Even that made me furious. She threw around Alex's name all the time, trying to push photos and old knickknacks on me. But the minute we tried for honesty about my sister and me, I'd apparently taken it too far.
I spun around and went to the table at the end of the foyer where Mom and Dad kept all the car keys. I found the familiar key of the car I used to drive before I moved to Philly.
"Where do you think you're going, young lady?" Mom cried.
"To clear my head. I'll be back when being here doesn't make me sick to my stomach."
Though at the moment, the answer to that felt like never.
It was becoming harder to breath, and I knew exactly where I would go—the same place I always went when I wished for a different life.
I'd almost dragged her out of there several times myself. I knew it would be difficult for her to have it out with her parents, but I hadn't anticipated how much it would affect me, nor could I ever have dreamed her parents would have reacted so badly. I thought parents were supposed to love unconditionally? I assumed they would be mad, scream a bit, maybe cry, then settle down and talk it out like adults. When her father called her a tramp, I very nearly hit a man that was three times my age.
I followed Max out a door in the kitchen that opened into the garage. I expected her parents to come after us, but they didn't do that either. Her parents had a three-car garage. At the far end was a black Volvo that lit up when Max pressed a button on her key. I tried to catch up to her, but she was already opening the car door, and it blocked my path.
"Just get in the car, Cade."
Thank God. I was worried she wanted to leave without me. Needless to say, going back into that living room would have been awkward. I jogged around to the other side and slid into the passenger seat. The electric garage door was already opening, and as soon as it was up, Max peeled out of the garage, tore down the driveway and out into the street. She shifted the car into drive and slammed on the gas.
"Max, be careful, please."
She slowed down a little, but not much.
"I'm sorry," I said. God, that seemed so inadequate. All of this was my fault. "I never should have made you do that. I am so sorry."
She smiled, and her eyes were watery. "Don't be."
"I shouldn't have pushed you. You were scared, and apparently with good reason."

These Innovations Have the Potential to Save Lives
We believe that innovation is changing the way the world works and ultimately making it a better place by saving lives, delivering productivity advancements, empowering users and developers, and reducing the environmental and social externalities of economic growth. Below, we highlight a few examples from our previously published research on how disruptive innovation saves lives.
Deep Learning Is Making Rapid Advances in Diagnostic Radiology
Critical to radiology is medical image diagnosis, a laborious and error prone process.1 Historically, the average diagnosis error rate among radiologists is around 30%, according to studies dating from 1949 to 1992.2 Radiologists often miss or misdiagnose lung cancer nodules, as well as 30–70% of breast cancer cases, especially in earlier stages of development. Many times, they do detect breast cancer via mammography but could have diagnosed it earlier upon a second look at prior mammograms.
Radiologists should not be blamed for many of these errors, as radiological images include overlapping tissue, bones, and organs, making it difficult to identify problem areas accurately. Moreover, emergency room radiologists analyze up to 200 cases per day,3 making it inevitable that some cases will be misdiagnosed.
We think intelligent software has the potential to solve this problem. Thanks to the latest breakthroughs in deep learning—a form of artificial intelligence loosely modeled after the human brain—computers now can recognize images with greater than human level accuracy.4 While used widely in many consumer Internet applications today, the same technology applied to medical imaging could save many lives.

Drones Could Save the 20,000 Lives Lost to Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest Each Year
Each year in the US, roughly 350,000 cardiac arrests occur outside of hospitals (OHCA), and only 12% of the victims survive.5 One reason the survival rate is so low is that ambulances take 11 minutes on average6 to arrive on the scene after a call to 911. While impressive, a shorter response time could save many lives, as shown in the chart below.
Electric vertical take-off and landing drones (eVTOLs) could be the answer to shorter ambulance response times. According to our research, eVTOLs could transport paramedics to patients in 5 minutes on average for just $150 a trip. Then, with help from ground ambulances, they could save as many as 20,000 lives annually.

CRISPR Technology Could Help Feed the Growing Population
According to the United Nations, the global population will expand from more than 7 billion people today to approximately 9.6 billion, pushing food demand up 70%, by 2050.7 Not only will existing technologies be unable to meet these food production goals but inefficiencies in supply chain management will exacerbate the problem, preventing what food is produced from reaching hungry consumers. Based on ARK's research CRISPR technology should help generate enough calories to accommodate global population growth during the next five to ten years.
Currently, the global population is growing at a rate of 1.12%, or 78-83 million people per year,8 pointing to an increase of 630 million people who will require roughly 460 trillion calories to satisfy the FDA's guideline of 2,000 calories per day, between 2017 and 2025.9 According to our calculations, CRISPR will be able to boost overall calories available for global consumption by 6%, exceeding the number necessary for 630 million people by 27%. Indeed, as illustrated below, CRISPR should boost agricultural productivity at a rate faster than population growth over time.

Autonomous Vehicles Will Reduce the Chances of Dying in an Auto Accident by Over 80%
While the autonomous vehicle market is still in its infancy today, we believe in the next decade autonomous vehicle safety will be a main reason for fast consumer adoption.
Every year automobiles claim more than 1.4 million lives at an economic cost of hundreds of billions of dollars.10 ARK has quantified the expected magnitude of autonomous vehicles' safety-advance by analyzing the introduction of another automation technology that has saved tens of thousands of lives: the airline's autopilot. If autonomous vehicles provide a similar edge in safety, the introduction of the autonomous car could be one of the great public health advances in history. ARK believes that autonomous technology platform providers and active safety integrators will drive this movement forward.
We believe that innovations from Google (GOOG), Tesla (TSLA), Autoliv (ALV), Delphi (DLPH), and Mobileye (MBLY) will help shape a future with fewer auto accidents. Fully autonomous vehicle platforms from Google and Tesla are expected by 2020. These systems could be used for autonomous taxis that could cost as little as $0.25 per mile and tap a $450 billion market opportunity. On the more immediate horizon, Mobileye, Autoliv, and Delphi already are developing and packaging autonomous vehicle safety features. The global market for collision avoidance and driver assistance is currently $14 billion and expected to grow at 25% per year as semi-autonomous features become increasingly common in new vehicles. There are over one billion vehicles in the world and active safety and autonomous technology providers can help make these machines more than 80% safer.

By asking you to follow his or her finger as it moves up and down and to the far right and left, the doctor can determine if there is any eye muscle weakness.
If the diplopia is monocular, the cause may be within the eye, so a doctor may use an instrument called a slit lamp to examine the eye under magnification. This allows the doctor to better evaluate the internal structures of the eyes. If you have binocular double vision, your NYU Langone doctor may ask questions about your symptoms to determine if an underlying condition may be causing it.
Diagnosing Double Vision in Adults
To find out whether a problem with the cranial nerves—which are responsible for eye movement and facial strength and sensation—is causing double vision, your doctor may ask if you have any pain or numbness around the eye sockets, facial weakness, and swallowing or speech problems. During a neurological examination, the doctor looks for ptosis —eyelid drooping, which can occur as a result of nerve or muscular disorders, such as myasthenia gravis or muscular dystrophy —or injury to one of your cranial nerves.
With an MRI scan, a magnetic field and radio waves are used to create two- or three-dimensional images of organs and tissues in the body. The results can help them to rule out certain causes of double vision, such as a tumor, inflammation along a nerve, or an aneurysm. It can cause swelling and thickening of the muscles responsible for eye movement, leading to double vision.

Lyme disease is a bacterial infection transmitted by ticks that causes neurological symptoms, including double vision. We can help you find a doctor. Call or browse our specialists.
Some cases recover on their own, whereas in other cases, the double vision can persist. Based on this information, the doctor will try to offer treatments to lessen the double vision.

One approach is to block vision from one eye. This can be done either by using an eye patch or by using scotch tape to cover one lens of the eyeglasses. Depending on the exact pattern of the abnormal eye movements, temporary prisms can sometimes be tried to reduce the double vision.
If these are very effective, permanent prisms can be ground into the lenses of the eyeglasses. Finally, if double vision has become a permanent problem without further improvement for about 12 months , surgery can be performed to adjust the position of the eye muscles. We believe that patients benefit from online medical information that is engaging, up to date, and reliable.

Diplopia (Double Vision)
Skip to contents. If you have binocular double vision, when you close either your right eye or left eye, the double vision goes away. Monocular double vision in one eye often appears as a ghosting or shadow that overlaps with the primary image. It can affect the right eye, the left eye, or both eyes at the same time. The most common cause of this type of double vision is dry eye syndrome.
Dry eye syndrome causes double vision and blurred vision because the tear film along the surface of your eye becomes uneven due to the dryness. People who have dry eye syndrome often complain that their eyes burn or feel scratchy and itchy. It also can feel like something is caught in the eye.
Symptoms of dry eye are often made worse by reading or by doing computer work because you unconsciously blink less while concentrating on reading. Treatment of dry eye syndrome usually begins with the use of artificial tears.
With these causes, symptoms of double vision do not tend to fluctuate as much as double vision associated with dry eye syndrome. Prescription glasses can contribute to poor vision and monocular double vision if they are out-of-date, the frames are bent or the lenses are scratched. Binocular double vision, or binocular diplopia, is caused by misalignment of the eyes.

Several members of Connecticut's congressional delegation are calling on the Trump administration to step up efforts to reunite families separated as they crossed the southern U.S. border.
Senator Richard Blumenthal was among lawmakers who visited detention facilities in Texas where children are currently being held. He spoke outside the border patrol station in El Paso, saying the human cost is severe.
"This so-called plan is really no plan at all," he said in a video released on Twitter. "There is no strategy, no plan to reunify the children with their parents, and what we have here is utter chaos and confusion."
Standing outside of the Border Patrol Station in El Paso, TX: pic.twitter.com/hLrhKC40uX
— Richard Blumenthal (@SenBlumenthal) June 22, 2018
Blumenthal has written to Defense Secretary James Mattis, calling the incarceration of immigrant children on military bases immoral and unlawful.
Meanwhile, four Connecticut representatives joined a Democratic delegation touring immigration control facilities. The group went to see where unaccompanied migrant children and families are being detained as a result of the president's recent immigration policies.
Fifth District Congresswoman Elizabeth Esty, speaking outside a Customs and Border Patrol processing center in McAllen, Texas on Saturday, called the situation a humanitarian crisis, and said she sympathized with border patrol agents.
"These agents are concerned and confused," she said. "They are public servants trying to do their job. We need consistency and compassion out of this administration. And to work with us to solve this problem."
Third District Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro said they also need information about how the Trump administration is planning on reuniting families.
"Where is the plan, where is the list of the names, their names, where they are from, where they are going, what shelters they are in?" she asked.
The Second District's Joe Courtney and the Fourth District's Jim Himes also joined the delegation on the two-day tour.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security released a statement saying that there is a coordinated process in place to reunite families and that the government knows the location of the more than 2,000 children in its custody.

The move has really upset my equilibrium. Which – duh – is what a move usually does, I'm just finding it uncomfortable. Since work is continuing on regardless, I don't have as much time as I would want to put everything into place in the new rooms, which is leading to more time in limbo. I've found stressing myself out for the few hours before or after work aren't worth it though, so I'm still trying to take some time to relax, read, drink my morning coffee.
The Roanoke River Greenway runs right behind our new building, and we've already been making use of it. It's quite a lovely thing, I've already taken lots of pictures but for now will just leave you with these of a sculpture we discovered along the way, which I think is beautiful and amazing.

A spinal fusion is done as a treatment for back pain caused by motion such as degenerative disk disease, scoliosis, stenosis, spondylolisthesis, tumour, spine infection or a fracture. By fusing two or more bones in the spine, the motion between vertebrae is limited and discomfort caused by nearby nerves, muscles and ligaments are reduced. If you have pain in your leg or arm in addition to back pain, Dr Khumalo may suggest spinal decompression surgery prior to spinal fusion to remove tissue that may be causing pressure on the spinal nerves. While a spinal fusion will limit the range of movement, it is usually fused at one specific point in the spine and will only affect flexibility in some positions.
Depending on the area in which the pain is located, Dr Khumalo will either perform an anterior lumbar interbody fusion (through the abdomen) or a posterior fusion (approached from the back). Your orthopaedic surgeon will then make an incision to expose the laminae of the spine in order to perform a spinal decompression if necessary.
In order to fuse the vertebrae, small pieces of bone are placed into the space between the vertebrae to promote fusion and stimulate bone healing. This is called bone grafting. A bone graft may be harvested from the patient's pelvis or from the site of decompression if this procedure was done; otherwise, an artificial bone graft is used. After bone grafting, the vertebrae are held in place by rods or screws to give stability.
Although this is regarded as an invasive surgery, your spine will be stable immediately after surgery. Dr Khumalo will prescribe you pain medications to relieve any pain and discomfort. These medications may inhibit the function of your bladder, and thus a catheter may be needed for the first two days after surgery. You should be able to go home after two or three days depending on whether or not a spinal decompression was done in conjunction with the spinal fusion. Before you are discharged, a spinal x-ray will be done to see how the fusion is healing.
If a spinal decompression was done, your nerves, muscles and tissues would adapt to having the pressure removed. If only a spinal fusion was done, recovery might take up to 6 months before you can feel the difference. After surgery, you will have sessions with a physiotherapist and occupational therapist to aid you in walking and getting out of bed. Physiotherapy will be advised to help regain strength and mobility for the next few months. During recovery, you may be as active as your pain allows you, but you will be advised to avoid heavy lifting, vigorous exercise as well as twisting and bending for at least 6 months. You may return to work after 6 weeks of recovery. Recovery will require commitment, and you will see Dr Khumalo for regular check-ups in the next year or two.
Dr Dlozi Khumalo is a compassionate Specialist Orthopaedic Surgeon with a keen interest in spinal conditions, hip and knee replacements, hand & foot surgery and limb reconstructive surgery. Feel free to make an appointment at his Benoni based practice.

Key issues
- In this case, the Court of Appeal was required to determine whether the trial judge had erred in finding that hospital's medical practitioners had requisite expertise to provide treatment advice; in finding loss was no more than loss of a mere chance of better medical outcome; and in weight given to evidence as to usual practice.
The Applicant had sustained serious fractures to the calcaneal bones in each of his ankles after jumping from a second storey balcony.
He was conveyed by ambulance to Royal Melbourne Hospital where he was treated conservatively. Subsequently, he consulted an orthopaedic surgeon and underwent successful surgery to his left ankle. However, he was left with ongoing pain and symptoms in his right ankle.
In the initial proceedings, the applicant claimed the Hospital never informed him of the option of surgical treatment for his calcaneal fractures. He further claimed that if he had been given that advice, he would have undergone an operation to his right ankle within the necessary time period, and if he had done so, he would have had a better outcome in respect of his right ankle.
In response, the doctors who had treated the applicant at the hospital, did not have any recollection of the applicant. However, by relying on the clinical notes and their usual practice, they gave evidence that appropriate advice as to the surgical option would have been given.
The trial judge held that the applicant had failed to prove, on balance of probabilities, that he was not given appropriate advice as to the option of surgical treatment while he was an inpatient. The judge also was not satisfied that surgery would have been performed on his right ankle in any event, and that he would have achieved a better outcome than his current condition. Accordingly, the claimwas dismissed.
The Applicant sought leave to appeal the decision.
The Applicant failed to succeed on any of the proposed grounds of appeal.
- In so far as it was contended that the judge erred in failing to find that the Hospital negligently failed to give the applicant adequate advice about his surgical options, this ground was not made out [110].
- The contention that the judge should have found that the Hospital should have referred the Applicant to a specialist foot surgeon was also found to be without substance [121].
- Further, the Applicant failed to demonstrate that the judge erred in concluding that, if he had undergone such surgery, he would have achieved a better outcome in his right foot than is presently the case. At best, the Applicant had lost no more than a mere chance or possibility to have achieved a better outcome, which is insufficient to establish, on the balance of probabilities, a claim for damages in breach of negligence [140].

If you are thinking about founding a new company, you likely have numerous questions about the financial and legal steps you need to take in order to turn that vision into a reality. One of the most urgent questions that aspiring business owners tend to grapple with is, "What is startup capital and how much capital do I need in order to successfully launch my new company?" The answer to this question has become more complex in recent years, due to the variety of ways that aspiring startup founders can now acquire the funding and financing necessary in order to get their new businesses off the ground and turning a profit. Essentially, the answer to this dynamic question depends somewhat on your circumstances and your new company's unique needs.
What Is Startup Capital?
Startup capital, commonly referred to as seed money or seed capital, is the money used by aspiring startup founders in an effort to launch their businesses. Startup capital can generally be acquired in the form of financing through loans, selling shares of the company through the issuance of stock, securing numerous small investments through crowdfunding, accepting gifts and donations and raising funds through other standard and creative means.
Startup capital is used for a variety of different purposes during the initial phases of business development. For example, in order to operate legally, new companies need to incorporate. There are both regulatory and legal fees associated with the incorporation process. Similarly, companies need to secure premises, obtain necessary licenses, raise funds for equipment and supplies, hire employees, invest in marketing, pay utilities and otherwise "get rolling." Most of the time, startup capital is used for all of the expenses a business anticipates it will incur until it begins to turn a profit.
When you work with an experienced business attorney in order to construct a financing plan for your startup, you will need to consider which sources of startup capital will best suit the needs of your new company. For example, if you require significant funding because you plan to launch a tech startup that will employ a few dozen people and will begin (in-part) by heavily investing in research and development, you may benefit from approaching a venture capital firm. If your enterprise is more traditional and a safer "bet," you may benefit from approaching a bank for a small business loan. If your operation is going to be relatively small and will appeal to a niche clientele, crowdfunding may be an excellent source of startup revenue for you. However, if your startup is going to depend on aggressive growth, you may benefit from a corporate structure in which you can raise several rounds of seed funding through sale of shares in your enterprise. Your approach to obtaining startup capital will thus be dependent upon your business model and your company's needs.
How Much Startup Capital Do I Need?
The amount of startup capital you will need in order to successfully launch your new business will depend upon a variety of factors. Obviously, a single storefront bakery operation employing seven people will require a different amount of startup capital than a new clothing manufacturing company set to employ upwards of 200 people would. It is therefore important to carefully consider the costs you will encounter before you are likely to begin turning a reliable profit. It is also important to take into consideration whether you plan to grow, develop and/or expand at a certain rate. Again, you will have to account for different costs if you plan to eventually open several bakeries as opposed to one.
Working with an experienced business attorney in order to generate a realistic financing plan, budget and general approach to your startup phase of growth is imperative, simply because this stage of business development is both foundational and notoriously complex. If you do not appropriately estimate how much startup capital your business will require, your vision may never materialize. Alternatively, you may be able to launch your business but will either be prohibited from growing your company or even from sustaining a reasonable operating budget. It is worth noting that it is generally better to overestimate your expenses than to underestimate them, as you are likely to encounter unexpected costs at one point or another.

Introduction and acknowledgements
Thank you very much, Grace [Miller], for that kind introduction. Students like you are outstanding ambassadors for the Hamilton Lugar School of Global and International Studies, and your impressive record of study and service abroad and your commitment to diplomacy and engagement with people from all cultures and backgrounds are a model for your fellow students.
The wonderful video we saw a moment ago about the late Senator Richard Lugar underscores the degree to which the senator's life and career will continue to inspire people around the world who devote themselves to public service and helping others. Both Senator Lugar and Congressman Lee Hamilton brought to their careers a sense of bipartisanship and duty that reflected an overriding desire to do what is right for America and right for the world. Naming the school in their honor just over a year ago was a fitting and appropriate tribute that reflected—and continues to reflect—the impact of their service to the state of Indiana and the nation.
I am very pleased to be here tonight with so many friends of Indiana University and the Hamilton Lugar School as we celebrate the school's success and plan for its future through the development of the Global Leadership Scholars Program.
The Hamilton Lugar School
The Hamilton Lugar School of Global and International Studies, founded in 2012, is one of 10 new schools established at IU in the last eight years. The school's mission is to provide an education at the highest level in all aspects of international affairs and international studies, including greater foreign language proficiencies, better understanding of social and political megatrends worldwide, and deeper knowledge of all aspects of globalization—all with the aim of helping to address some of the world's most significant economic, political, social, cultural, and environmental challenges.
In its first few years of operation, under the leadership of founding dean Lee Feinstein, the former U.S. Ambassador to Poland, the school has been enormously successful.
The number of majors in the school has increased by 83 percent in the last five years.
And Indiana University offers instruction each year in around 70 foreign languages, most of them in the school—by far the largest number of any university in the country.
Just over a year ago, we announced that a record number of 11 IU area studies centers and programs within the school were awarded grant funding for 18 separate programs under the U.S. Department of Education's prestigious Title VI program. These centers conduct research and scholarship on various regions of the world that is critical to our understanding of and engagement with the broader world. This was the best outcome for IU in the more than 60-year history of the Title VI Program and of any university in the country.
Later this evening, of course, we will hear from former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, who is one of the most distinguished alumni of one of the oldest and finest of these area studies centers, IU's Russian and East European Institute.
International engagement at Indiana University
Of all that comprises an IU education, international literacy and experience ranks at the very top. The world in which our students will live will require more, not less knowledge about the world.
In my years as IU president, we have sought to provide this in a number of ways, including:
- By requiring a mandatory international component for every student as part of their IU education.
- Through a major increase in the number of our students who study abroad. Over the last 10 years we have seen nearly a doubling in the number of IU students who study abroad. IU Bloomington now ranks sixth in the nation (out of more than 1,000 universities that are ranked) in terms of the number of students who study abroad, and about a third of Bloomington students study abroad before graduation.
- Through welcoming a large and diverse international student body who come from over 150 countries and who bring the world to IU.
- By building strong and active partnerships with some of the best foreign universities in the world. We now have around 200 such partnerships.
- By supporting and encouraging our faculty from all disciplines in engaging internationally.
- Through the establishment of IU Global Gateway centers in Beijing, Berlin, New Delhi, Mexico City, and Bangkok to help focus and concentrate our activities in key regions of the world.
- And, of course, through the efforts of the Hamilton Lugar School, which is quickly becoming one of the nation's most eminent centers of research and scholarship in foreign and international affairs.
In his final State of the Union Address in 1960, President Dwight Eisenhower said, "A …nation can for a time, without noticeable damage to itself, pursue a course of self-indulgence, making its single goal the material ease and comfort of its own citizens—thus repudiating its own spiritual and material stake in a peaceful and prosperous society of nations. But," Eisenhower continued, "the enmities it will incur, the isolation into which it will descend, and the internal moral and physical softness that will be engendered, will, in the long term, bring it to disaster."1
In the coming years, alumni of the Global Leadership Scholars Program, as well as other graduates of the Hamilton Lugar School—following the examples of the late Senator Richard Lugar, Congressman Lee Hamilton, and tonight's guest of honor, Secretary Robert Gates—will work to build bridges of international understanding and cooperation that will help to prevent the kind of disaster of which President Eisenhower warned. And they will work to ensure that the United States and all nations are part of a peaceful and prosperous society of nations.
Your presence here tonight—and your continuing support for the school—will help to make all of this possible.
Thank you very much.

I would like to take this opportunity during the lovely holiday season to share what I am grateful for. I am so very grateful to Brenda Patton who worked so incredibly hard to help me to purchase my beautiful renovated condo.
It was a late 10:30 pm evening when I texted Brenda regarding a condo that just came on the market in St. Augustine. Up to that point, nothing I looked at online appealed to me. Brenda responded immediately and secured an appointment for me. She also called the owners to make sure I could see the unit first since I was driving from Alachua.
I knew this was my future condo. Brenda and I looked at the condo which was perfect for me. I wanted to purchase it immediately, so I offered the owners their price and they accepted. However, there was a litigation issue between the HOA and a contractor. I continued to move forward with a mortgage lender (or so I thought). Everything that could have gone wrong did. The mortgage lender was completely atrocious to me and caused so much stress and depression for me. He was 100% unprofessional, and this was terribly upsetting not only to me but to Brenda as well.
Brenda took charge immediately! She worked to find out how other buyers were successful in purchasing their condos during the litigation process. She would not take NO for an answer. Brenda got me in touch with the best of the best women at Ameris Bank.
Women working with other women to make a dream happen. Brenda went ABOVE and BEYOND to make this sale happen for me and to make sure I had a much more positive experience. Brenda's attention to detail and her determination was paramount to my success in securing the condo.
To Brenda I would like to say thank you so very much, you are a special friend in my life.

Nipsey Hussle, the rapper who earned a Grammy nomination in 2018 for his first major-label release, Victory Lap, was 33 years old when he was shot down in cold blood. The murder took place on March 31, right outside the front of Hussle's Marathon clothing store on Crenshaw Boulevard in South Los Angeles.
Hussle was reportedly one of three people shot. Hussle died from his wounds at the hospital.
Nipsey's most recent tweet, sent about an hour prior to the shooting, mentioned the benefits of having "strong enemies."
While a vigil was being held for Nipsey Hussle and those wounded a man flashed a gun to the well wishers. No gun shots were fired but a melee took place and 19 people were injured. Police were called to the scene and on April 2nd were able to locate the suspect arresting 29-year-old Eric Ronald Holder Jr. for killing Nipsey Hussle, born Ermias Asghedom.
Holder is also accused of wounding two other men in the gun fire.
The formal charges are one count of murder, two counts of attempted murder and one count of possession of a firearm by a felon. (Holder was convicted of a felony in 2012, when he pled no contest to possession of a loaded firearm.)
Holder pled not guilty to the charges, and was ordered held on $5 million bail. After a widely publicized manhunt, he was arrested on Tuesday in the city of Bellflower, in Los Angeles County. At a press conference held earlier that day, LAPD chief Michel Moore said that police believe that there was some kind of dispute between the two men. According to video evidence and witness statements, Holder allegedly spoke to the rapper, left and then returned with a gun.
Holder is being represented by Christopher Darden, who became a well-known name as a prosecutor in the O.J. Simpson trial in the mid-1990s.
Hussle was well known for his gang affiliation in the South L.A. neighborhood as well as a member of the Rollin 60s Neighborhood Crips. That changed in recent years where he often downplayed that connection in support of his role as an entertainer and as a businessman, releasing over a dozen mixtapes and albums independently over the course of ten years before signing a joint deal with Atlantic Records in 2017 for the release of his "official" debut album, Victory Lap, which was nominated for a Best Rap Album Grammy earlier this year.
