Power Rangers, Typical Day at the Angel Grove Juice Bar
Title: Typical Day at the Angel Grove Juice Bar [Tommy/Kimberly]
Rating/Warnings: thankfully, in the 6th grade I only wrote G.
Summary: Tommy has something important to say.
AN: somehow nihongofrancais and I got to talking about Power Rangers being an old fandom of hers, and I said "I can top that, I used to write Green ranger/Pink ranger" and then I went in the closet and found the correct notebook in about ten seconds. Aside from my lack of belief in the hard return, it sounds…pretty much exactly like I sound now.
So here you go. I seriously think I wrote this in 1994. And I want to also say that in the front of this notebook there is a disclaimer that I write mainly about television, I complain about being jossed (although I obviously don't call it that in 1994), and then I list my fandoms as "X-men, Lois & Clark, Aladdin, Biker Mice from Mars, and Power Rangers."
Typical Day at the Angel Grove Juice Bar
Typical day at the Angel Grove Juice Bar: Jason & Zack practicing karate, Trini & Billy talking at the bar, Kimberly on the balance beam.
Tommy comes in. He surveys the scene from near the end of the balance beam. Trini & Billy wave. Zack looks up and shouts, "Hi, Tommy!" allowing Jason to get a hit in.
"Ow!" says Zack, crashing to the floor.
"Sorry, man," says Jason. "Hey, Tommy!"
Tommy waves. He looks around trying to find Kimberly. At that moment, Kimberly trips in the middle of a flip and flies thorugh the air.
Tommy looks up and at the last second catches her.
"Thanks," says Kimberly, more than a little shaken.
"Are you all right?" asks Tommy.
Kimberly looks up. "Tommy! Uh, yeah, fine," she says, blushing. Tommy puts her down.
"Good, because I wanted to talk to you." Kimberly looks at him and he smiles.
He takes her hand and they walk over to the juice bar. They say hi to Trini & Billy. Billy says something immensely confusing and they both look at Trini.
"He said 'nice catch.'"
Tommy and Kimberly look at each other and burst out laughing. They sit down together.
"So, what did you want to talk about?"
"Well, I just…I wanted to know if…"
"Oh to heck with it! Kim, will you go steady with me?"
Kimberly's face lights up. "Do you have to ask?! Of course!" Kimberly leans over to hug him and he smiles, relivied [sic].
"Wow. I didn't think you'd even think about it seriously."
Kimberly pulls back and looks at him. "You certainly don't know me very well, do you?"
He pulls her close and says, "Let's hope that changes."
a few further notes: I want to point out that the only typo in this whole handwritten thing was "relivied" and that I totally knew how to render quotes inside of quotes. And how to use and spell the word 'immensely.' And that apparently my preferred pairings were Tommy/Kimberly, Trini/Billy, and Zack/Jason. You can tell, because they get the ampersand when I introduce them.
Also, "oh to heck with it!" made me snort out loud.

Deutsche Bank Disposes of $1B in Soured Shipping Loans
Deutsche Bank has sold a $1 billion portfolio of shipping loans to a venture owned by two investment funds, Oak Hill Advisors and Varde Partners. The bank says that it intends to stay in the business of shipping finance.
"Following this disposal and other derisking strategies we have implemented, the bank will be left with a performing and a run-off shipping book and can now focus on ship finance areas where it will continue to add value to clients," Deutsche Bank said in a statement.
Deutsche Bank reported non-performing loans totaling to $2.9 billion at the end of 2017. Factoring in a discount on the portfolio's original value, the price of the sale indicates that it represents a large fraction of the bank's impaired loans.
HSH Nordbank, once the world's biggest shipping bank, is also looking to revamp its ship lending business now that the industry is recovering. It has recently privatized and is seeking to buy performing loans from other financial institutions. Its head of shipping finance, Christian Nieswandt, told Reuters that the bank has set aside a budget of $800 million per year for new loans and the purchase of high quality portfolios of performing loans. Duetche Bank is reportedly a potential seller.
HSH Nordbank struggled during the shipping industry downturn when soured loans began to weigh on its portfolio. In February, it spun off a $7 billion package of non-performing loans as part of a privatization deal with J.C. Flowers, Cerberus, Centaurus Capital, GoldenTree and Austrian bank BAWAG.

U.S. Band Eagles Of Death Metal Safe After Attack At Paris Concert
Members of the Southern California band Eagles Of Death Metal made it out safely after an attack at their Paris concert Nov. 13 killed over 112 of their fans. The band was playing at the Bataclan Theater when four gunmen broke in and opened fire.
So scary. The Eagles Of Death Metal were playing their sold out concert at the Bataclan Theater when the deadly attack occurred, one of up to six coordinated attacks across Paris on Nov. 13. The band made it out safely but unfortunately 112 of their fans were killed inside the theater. They were initially held hostage but were slaughtered inside the theater before police stormed the concert hall.
Their opening act, The Red Lemons, posted to their Facebook that "For our American and English friends, a terrorist attack happened at the Eagles of death metal concert. We are safe. (Band members) Mikel Ross, Eric McFadden we were with your mates Jesse, Tuesday, the other musicians outside, they're safe too, they took a cab," the band shared.
The wife of drummer Julian Dorio told The Washington Post that he and other band members are OK. "We are just holding our breath and saying prayers for everyone," Emily Dorio said. "(Julian) called to say that he loved me and he was safe. Everyone on stage was able to get off." What a relief!
The Eagles Of Death Metal had earlier put out a statement via their Facebook that "We are still currently trying to determine the safety and whereabouts of all our band and crew. Our thoughts are with all of the people involved in this tragic situation."
Before the two gunmen entered the theater and opened fire, the band was wrapping up it's show to a packed house of 1,200 concert goers, as several which shared photos of the band performing via Instagram before the tragedy occurred. Four gunmen armed with assault rifles burst in and opened fire, and while many concert members were able to flee the carnage, scores of people were initially held hostage, and 112 were eventually killed inside the theater. Journalist Jim Sciutto tweeted "Escaped hostage from
#Bataclan tells #CNN terrorists calmly executed hostages, reloaded, executed again in silence." So tragic!

Lowry and the Painting of Modern Life
The first major exhibition, since his death, of over 90 works of LS Lowry (1887 – 1976) has opened at Tate Britain, running until October 20, 2013.
Although known for his stick figures he devoted his life to painting the England of the Industrial Revolution, and was a principal painter of the working class.
Lowry was a northerner, studying art at Manchester and Salford. Coming from a lower middle class home, he made his living as a rent collector. His background was very much in keeping with the environment that he painted.
Among the paintings on display are also works by French and British artists including Vincent Van Gogh's Outskirts of Paris and Camille Pissarro's Upper Norwood, Crystal Palace, London. These paintings are also associated with the 'nitty gritty' of modern day life that Lowry understood so well.
The last room includes seven of his largest paintings which portray his vision of what had been happening to the British economy since 1918. Their logic implies the collapse, yet to come, of the industrial world.
In 1975, just prior to his death, the Universities of both Salford and Liverpool honoured him with a Doctorate of Letters.
A display of fourteen lithographs at the entrance to the exhibition is a sampling of Tate's 'school prints' scheme in which Lowry was involved.
While visiting Tate Britain leave time to view the paintings of a totally different style of art by Patrick Caulfield (1936 – 2005). His works also engage with the contemporary social landscape and representation of modern life.

Kaitee's Poems
by Kaitee
(Bardfest 5111)
You see Lady Kaittee the Master Healer.
She appears to be a Sylvankind.
She is shorter than average and appears to be in the prime of life. She has luxuriously thick-lashed viridian eyes and fair skin. She has long, soft deep red hair that falls gracefully over her shoulders. She has a round face, a small nose and slightly upswept pointed ears. She has softly-contoured, plump lips naturally tinged a rosy pink.
She has a collared fluffy bunny tattoo on her waist.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a delicate collar of silver-caged princess-cut diamonds, a shimmering moon opal hairpin, a spiraling rose vine wristlet wrought in translucent black glaes set with garnet blossoms, a sideless cardinal velvet gown with long split-sleeves, a delicate silver-clasped handbag, a pair of silver-tipped shoes, and a soft white spidersilk cloak edged with golden silk trim.
Kaittee admits, "I am quite nervous."
Kaittee exclaims, "Here goes!"
Kaittee nervously says, "Good evening everyone. I have a series of short poems for you tonight."
Kaittee slowly empties her lungs.
Kaittee recites:
"I have stories, some real and some lies
Which is which, I will let you decide
I will share them with you
In my Bardfest debut
I have nothing to lose but my pride!"
Kaittee grins sheepishly.
Kaittee recites:
"Speaking of hurt pride, there once was this boy
Whose body was one I much did enjoy
But alas he saw fit
To get with this twit
Well of course, I had them destroyed."
Kaittee smiles innocently.
Kaittee flails her arms about.
Kaittee recites:
"It was not my fault, their untimely demise
He had it coming!, I rationally surmised
So boy was I shocked
When they threw me in stocks
Apparently murder has been criminalized?!"
Kaittee looks downright miserable.
Kaittee recites:
"Enough about me, let me tell you one more
About a young man and a dirty old"
Kaittee coughs.
Kaittee recites:
"He fell for the lass
Who gave him a rash
And medicinal herbs were called for."
Kaittee appears to be trying hard not to grin.
Kaittee blushes a nice shade of light pink.
Kaittee recites:
"That relates to an infamous man you may know
Who always has a dozen women in tow
As for the unwanted rash
And this may cause a splash
Well his bed I would likely forgo."
Kaittee recites:
"If you do not know Jeril then you must be a man
Because Jeril he *knows* as many women as he can
When he hears of this it will
Likely all go downhill
To outrun him, well that is my plan!"
Kaittee lets out a yelp!
Kaittee pants.
Kaittee looks lost in thought.
Kaittee recites:
"I have just realized now, and I feel ashamed
That all of my songs have been mostly the same
They are murder and sleaze
Topped with sexual disease
A warped sense of humor is likely to blame"
Kaittee looks thoughtful for a moment, then shrugs.
Kaittee recites:
"So I will end with a happy one, one sure to please
And I promise not a mention of nasty disease
A clean and pleasant note
So do not misquote
Bruised sensibilities I aim to appease"
Kaittee recites:
"True love exists, sure as the wind shakes the trees
Even Jeril will find her someday, you will see
Do not lose hope
Do not be a sad mope
One day a girl who will give it for free!"
Kaittee exclaims, "I lied, it was not clean nor pleasant. Jeril, please do not hate me!"
Kaittee curtsies.

Very complex, underpinned by a sweet backdrop of pastries and toast. After a short time in the glass, mineral notes typical of the local soil emerge. In the mouth it is very strong and corpulent, full-bodied, with verve and freshness. A multitude of flavours give this wine great complexity and elegance.
If I close my eyes, I have a feeling of having a Puligny-Montrachet from Burgandy. I will match this wine with white fish or chicken with buttery sauce.
Only produce around 4000 bottles per vintage.

A Blind Man Once Whispered
"To each his own," the blind man whispered to the crowd
Who josseled him; who ignored him.
White rabbit among the cabbages
Where's Alice?
Is she going to Buckingham Palace?
No, just a book ravaged
By time;
And if you thought of more to say,
Would those dancing crowds of night listen,
Paying their respects to the day,
Or would words fall on busy sidewalks?
All for one, or one for all, moving in union
Across the great plains of merchandise.
A blind man once whispered, "To each his own,"
But no one listened.

Too often people want to follow the crowd, be consumers, never daring to be a white rabbit among the cabbages.

Whether your house is old or new, your home electrics should be tested every 5 years in order to certify that your home's wiring and fittings are in safe working order. In some cases, you may need to consider rewiring to guarantee safety, but what are the benefits of rewiring a house?
Why You Should Invest In Rewiring A House
Rewiring your home not only means that your electrics and cables are all safe, but it will also save you a lot of money.
A lot of people have had problems in the past where they have moved into a new home, only to find out that the electrics are faulty and have the potential to be dangerous. When first moving into your home this has the possibility to break your bank a little as if the previous owner hasn't had their home's wiring checked then there is a chance you could have to rewire the entire house.
So before moving in or paying a deposit for a new home, make sure to check its servicing and maintenance history. For example, ask about the last boiler servicing, their previous electrical inspections and the last gas service the home received. The last thing you want is to move into a new home that has faulty, unreliable electrics.
So why should you rewire your house – what does it bring to you and your family and in the event that your home's electrical wiring does fail then what should you do? Keep reading to find out!
Electrical Wirings Lifespan
Electrical wiring within your home has an average lifespan of 20 years, and although this may sound a lot, it is simple to lose track of when you had your last inspection. If you can't remember or are unsure when your home was last rewired, then it is a good idea to have regular electrical inspections in Milton Keynes. If you're thinking of selling your home, be sure to have copies of your electricians Milton Keynes will be able to advise you on what is best for your home and be able to carry out the job for you.
For comfort purposes, when having all these updates and changes, you are able to introduce your home to devices such as plastic-insulated wire, smoke detectors and grounding.
To Get Your Home Extended
If you want a major property remodel or extension, then the likelihood of them carrying out the work without you rewiring certain parts – if not all of your home, is very unlikely.
So it's a lot better to have your home regularly serviced, as if you need electrical rewiring for your home, then it is affordable. However, if you are told you need to have your entire home re-wired while having a major building remodel, then it may override the budget a little.
If you are having a home extension or converting your loft, then all of the new wirings will have to be in line with the Electrical Safety. Meaning that all of the existing wirings within your home will have to be replaced, to ensure that it is able to withstand the extra electrical load safely.
The most obvious reason to have your home rewired is to make sure that you and your family are safe, an entire house rewire eliminates any issues or electrical problems. You are also more likely to finder a cheaper, better home insurance plan if you have more reliable regularly serviced electrical wiring, they know how dangerous old faulty electrical systems can be.
Add Home Sale Value
The value of your home can be increased by hundreds – in certain circumstances even thousands if it has been signed off by an inspector. Old electrical systems and wiring can be an instant off-putting factor for potential buyers, and you don't want to scare off any potential property buyers if you're selling.
When having a certified electrician come to fit any new wiring or inspect your current one, you should always make sure that they're completely qualified, and if they cannot show any previous work or provide testimonials – do NOT use them.
Save Money On Your Bills
It's crucial that you do everything in your power to save on your energy bills. Not only are you saving money in your wallet, but you're also helping save the environment. You may not realise the damage that just running your home is causing. So when your energy bills are at their highest, this is when the greenhouse gases being released into the atmosphere are also at their highest.
It's easier than you first anticipated to save on your energy bills. What we recommend to all of our clients is that they invest in and install a smart metre. This smart gadget has become increasingly popular in recent years and is recommended for both gas and electricity bills. They pick up on your ventral heating habits as well as your electrical uses and will do things like turn your lights off for you, or turn your central heating off during the hours when nobody is home, and it's not needed. But if you enjoy coming home from work to a well lit, warmed up house, then your smart metre can arrange this for you.
Your energy provider is the one who will be able to advise you on which smart metre is best suited for you, although we would have to recommend the Nest smart meter. We have installed a high volume of these now and have been experimenting with how they work. We would highly recommend Nest, who have had numerous positive reviews detailing just how much customers have saved! All in all, rewiring your property will save you money on your energy bills. All faulty wiring will be removed and discarded, and then replaced with new efficient wiring. Once you have the transition, you will see the difference straight away. Your electricity bills will plummet even if you use your electricity the same as you always have.
Stop Malfunctioning Appliances
Faulty electrical wiring throughout your entire house can begin to take its toll on even your biggest appliances. As a homeowner, you want to be able to ensure that all of your devices are in good working condition, and allow you to carry out your daily tasks. When left, electrical wiring can cause disruption and end up costing you hundreds of pounds in appliance repairs and replacements.
When your electrical wiring is faulty, it will be working overtime to provide an adequate amount of electricity for all of the devices in your home. It's likely that you are aware that an appliance as large as your kettle does not need as much electricity as something like your washing machine. Because of this, your home cannot distribute the amount of energy that is necessary to appliances in the correct quantities. So when your coffee machine is overloaded with enough power to run a washing machine, it's no surprise that it will break down. This is often why a lot of homeowners complain that their appliances are all breaking down at the same time, and they then have to fork out for a variety of appliance repairs and replacements. By rewiring your home, you can guarantee that your appliances are receiving the correct amount of power and can work efficiently in your home.
Reduce The Chance Of A Power Cut
Power cuts are a pain; you lose access to all of the electrical amenities in your home. By this, we mean everything, from something as small as a phone charger, to your lights and your TV. Although this can be resolved easily enough, it can be a pain and prevent you from carrying out your day to day tasks. Electrical surges can be caused by a number of different things, including lightening strikes and power line damage. However, the most frequent cause of loss of electrical power is due to faulty electrical wiring.
It can either cause the home to overload with electricity and cause it to shut down, or it simply just cannot produce enough power to run your home due to poor wiring. Either way, you should have a home rewiring if you see the signs of faulty electrical wiring, or you could end up in a blackout!
What Are The Signs My House Needs Wiring?
Luckily, there are a few warning signs that can indicate that your home needs rewiring before any harm or danger can be caused.
Here's what you should look out for:
- Regularly blown fuses
- Flickering or dimmed lights – this could mean that your circuit has a loose connection or is overloaded
- Light bulbs that commonly burn out while in the socket
- Buzzing or sizzling noises
- A scent of burning
- Sparks when you plug or unplug a cord
- Electric shocks when plugging in or touching a cord
If any of these sound familiar to you, then we suggest you arrange for a home electrical inspection as soon as possible.
Rewire Your Home
So there are a few reasons that you should choose to upgrade and rewire your entire property, electricity is significantly dangerous if left and you should NEVER attempt to fix any electrical issues yourself and should always leave the job to a qualified electrician.
If you're concerned about any of the electrics in your house, whether it be your appliances, your electrical fittings or your wiring then make sure to give our emergency electricians Milton Keynes a call so that we can diagnose the situation for you.
We hope this article was helpful – if it was then why not share with your friends and family and spread electrical awareness.

Discogs September Pledge Initiative is an annual submission drive to document and catalog as many music releases throughout month as possible, ultimately pushing towards Discogs goal to catalog every release in the world (you can read more about Discogs' SPIN results here).
This goal also extends to all of Discogs' newer sister-sites: Bookogs, Gearogs, Comicogs, Filmogs, Posterogs, and VinylHub. We want to catalog every published edition of a book, every physical release of every film, every version and translation of a comic or graphic novel, posters for every gig, and every piece of music gear. It's ambitious, but in our opinion, it's absolutely necessary.
The sister sites are still a long way off reaching the levels of comprehensiveness of Discogs, but it's a lot like what Discogs was in the early days. and for What's exciting about still being in the relatively early stages is being able to see the impact you can make as an individual to the data and the direction of the site (if you're a sci-fi buff, you could tip the scales towards it being the most cataloged genre on Bookogs far easier than in favour of a particular genre on Discogs). It's exciting to see how great the impact of each individual contributor can have on the data and volume of items cataloged.
Our goals for SPIN were ambitious, but you gotta go big or go home. Spoiler alert: we didn't hit the goals for all the sites, but September was our biggest month for submissions as a whole, so that still counts as a success.
Where Are The Most Active Contributors?
Below is an overview of where the most active contributors live, along with which type of items were most submitted in these countries for September:
- United States (comics, films, books)
- United Kingdom (comics)
- Hungary (books)
- Canada (films)
- Czech Republic (films)
- Qatar (books)
- Russia (books)
- Norway (posters)
- Germany (books)
- France (books)
Bookogs Submission Stats
Bookogs takes the prize for most submissions among the sister sites this September. It got close to the wire, but it topped its already high goal of 4600 by over 100 submissions.
The authors with the most books contributed this September was Agatha Christie, who way out in front with 62 books submitted. She's now the second most contributed author, but despite best efforts, she still doesn't have a patch on Stephen King who has over 400 books to his name on Bookogs. Surprisingly though, King doesn't even appear in the top 10 most contributed authors for September. Christie is followed by Georges Simenon, Zbigniew Nienacki, Charles Bukowski, Nemere István, Roderick Hunt, Terry Pratchett, Roger Hargreaves, Jules Verne, and Enid Blyton.
Most Book and Magazine Contributed Genres
- Fiction (544)
- Music (487)
- Novel (464)
- Non-fiction (352)
- Science Fiction (229)
- Interview (207)
- History (200)
- Reviews (182)
- Children's Literature (180)
- Crime (145)
Most books contributed were in English – almost 3 times as the next most contributed language, which was Hungarian. These two were followed by Spanish, German, Russian, French, Italian, Finnish, Dutch and Portuguese.
Comicogs Submission Stats
Comicogs' submission goal for September was 2400, and got 1966. Sure, it didn't quite hit the goal, but ±2000 is nothing to sneeze at. While Comicogs accepts comic books, graphic novels, strips, manga, manhwa and more, the vast majority of these submissions were comic books, with graphic novels in second place only getting 82 submissions.
Most Contributed Comic Genres
- Superhero (665)
- Science Fiction (195)
- Humour (109)
- Action/Adventure (88)
- Anthropomorphic (71)
- Fantasy (70)
- Childrens (42)
- Horror (38)
- Alternative (13)
- Anthology (10)
Marvel beat out DC more than 2 to 1 in terms of most contributed publisher, with Dark Horse Books also making a relatively strong showing. Avengers was the most popular series among contributors for September, along with 2000 A.D. Weekly, and Uncanny X-Men.
Filmogs Submission Stats
Similar to Comicogs, Filmogs submission target for September was 2500, but missed out by about 500 submissions.
DVD was by far and away the most contributed format, with over three-quarters of the total submissions for September being DVDs. Blu-ray makes up most of that remaining quarter, with about 151 VHS releases. Notable mentions go out to the 11 LaserDiscs, 4 Super 8s, and 2 UMDs.
Gearogs Submission Stats
Well, at least we made it over halfway for Gearogs submission target. We were aiming for 400. We got 208. We'll take it.
Following recent trends, the most submitted type of gear for September was speakers
Most Contributed Type Of Gear
- Speaker (63)
- Radio receiver (50)
- Synthesizer (16)
- Media Player (14)
- Effect (12)
- Turntable Accessory (11)
- Integrated Amplifier (10)
- Turntable (8)
- Tape Machine (6)
Pioneer was the most submitted maker for September, followed by New York speaker manufacturer, Rectilinear Research Corporation, and Roland.
Posterogs Submission Stats
Whoops, we overshot this one. But that's okay, because 400 submissions is still great and took us to over 4000 posters total.
While Posterogs was originally slated to focus mostly on music and gig posters, the community voted to use it as a place to catalog their film posters as well. Since we now cater to film collectors with Filmogs, it makes sense that we should accommodate film posters as well. It turns out that film posters were the most contributed type for September. This was followed closely by gig posters, with the odd tour, album and band/artist poster thrown in for good measure.
Despite the popularity of film posters, we thought it would be cool to see which bands and artists had the most posters contributed in September. The most popular bands were Nowherebound, The Gaslight Anthem, Terminus (4), Rocket From The Crypt, Social Distortion, Reverend Horton Heat, and The Bouncing Souls.
If you're into gig and band posters you should check out some of the following artists' work.
Most Contributed Poster Artists
- Lindsey Kuhn
- Mark Richardson
- Ernie Parada
- Chris Klinck
- El Jefe
- Zachary Kent
- Kustom Graphic Design
- Dean Tomasek
- Coop
- Frank Kozik
If you have any posters from these artists (or others) please submit them and help complete their poster catalog.
VinylHub Submission Stats
Let's finish on a high. As we think we might be closing in on having every record store cataloged on VinylHub, we took it easy with the submission target for September. We didn't need to. VinylHub got nearly twice as many submissions as we were aiming for.
Geographically, the stores submitted were pretty well spread out; no two stores submitted were in the same city. It can be fun to look through VinylHub at some of the record store names people come up with. Some favorite store names for September were: What A Crock Records, Shoveitupyourcult Records, Dig N Delve, Ransom Note Records, Audiophil's Records, and Electric Mud Records.
The SPIN might be over, but we're still pushing for more submissions, and we need your help. Whether you've got a little or a lot, wide-release or ultra-rare, mainstream or obscure, in whichever language – make sure it stands the test of time. Save your physical items to the database, document it, share your collection and knowledge with other fans of physical culture. We can recreate the magic of Discogs for books, films, comics, posters, and gear, and give the gift of discovery.
Thanks to everyone who contributed for SPIN this year!

Saving Our Seeds: Protecting the Future of Our Food
Since the start of human agricultural practices, seeds have been traditionally saved and shared between farmers – used and passed down from one season to the next.
Since the start of human agricultural practices, seeds have been traditionally saved and shared between farmers – used and passed down from one season to the next.
A new year is upon us! With it, come new opportunities to learn, grow, and discover new ways of supporting the planet and each other. This pledge contains small, but impactful ways to lead the way for a sustainable future in your daily life, home, backyard and local community.
Our pesticide and insecticide use is not only hurting our bodies, but it is negatively impacting our food supply by killing our pollinators. In a recent report, the United Nations warned that 40% of the world's pollinators are at risk of extinction.
The transition from hunter-gatherer to agricultural-based living was gradual, but posed revolutionary ecological and cultural transformations as centuries have passed. In the United States particularly, increased commercialized farming has simplified ecosystems, embraced monocropping and become dependent on chemical pesticides and fertilizers.
At this point in history, the agricultural world is no stranger to genetic modification. With this technology, researchers have created seedless watermelon, gluten-free wheat and apples that don't turn brown with age. This is done through breeding out unwanted traits of an organism (i.e seeds or spots).
Humans are facing a global disease crisis. This is occurring at alarming rates – it is widespread and endemic. Just consider that 4% of the U.S population had a chronic disease in 1965. As of 2015, 46% of our children have been diagnosed with a chronic disease. For the first time in America's history, our children's expected lifespan is a generation shorter than that of their parents.

This article is about the agony of unrequited love or one sided love. Let me first define the term unrequited love. If you love someone or have feelings for someone then you expect the other person to give you something in return. In unrequited love, you don't get anything in return of your feelings and emotions. So what can be done about it?
Why Are We Inclined To Seek Love?
The truth is we don't have any inclination towards love or money. CONFUSED? Let me explain why. We all have a natural inclination towards pleasure or joy. If you want to understand human behavior then there is no need to read thick books I can explain it in just one sentence. Every human is either trying to gain pleasure or avoid pain. Period.
You can see people around you doing hundreds of things but basically, all they are doing is trying to gain pleasure or avoid pain.
You may think you want love or money but all you are striving is to avoid suffering and increase joy or fun.
Something More
If you are old enough and have a very rich life experience then you might know by experience that nothing can satisfy a human being. Say if 100 people are respecting someone then they want 1000 people to respect them. If they earn a million dollars then they strive for 100 million. This is an endless cycle. Is there any end to it? You must find it. If you really want to find the end then I have an advice for you. Don't be in a hurry to jump to a conclusion.
Look back at your life. At some point in your life, you might want to achieve or get something. Once you got that you took it for granted after some time and started striving to achieve something else.
There is nothing good or bad about it. Every human wants to become or experience something more. If that something happens then he/she wants something more.
Doesn't matter who you are, if you shall stop growing in your life then you will suffer immensely. Pain is inevitable in this case. So the only way to deal with the agony of unrequited love is to understand that you are not suffering because you won't own a person. You are suffering because you are refraining yourself from growing.
We Have Two Choices
In my article why relationships are important to human beings, I said that if a person is smart then he/she can use anything for their growth. Every life situation especially the difficult or rocky ones offer us two choices. We can either become wounded or wise.
Love and relationships are a part of life. You must understand there are other parts or aspects of life namely career, finance, family, recreation etc. you must give some time to yourself to ensure your well-being and people around you. It is very important that there is a balance among all the aspects of life.
Love Is……
What is love all about? A few days ago I met Sunil bhaiya (someone who is an elder brother like or elder brother is called bhaiya in India). He used to live in my house on rent. I met him and told about my site. I told him that my site LuvLeela.com is about real love.
I explained to him what is a real love. I said love is when you are willing to give and do everything for a person without asking anything in return. When you see a person that you love growing or doing well in life then you feel good. Love is when you are willing to die for someone's well-being and happiness.
Immediately bhaiya replied like the way I love my daughter. I said yes the way you love your daughter is real love. You must love everyone like this only if you want to claim that you love them.

CityDesk on Virtual PC (OS X) and external editors
Does anyone know if it is possible to use external editors to edit templates CityDesk (ie Dreamweaver MX) while running it on VirtualPC on Mac OS X? Dreamweaver is being run natively on OS X (not under emulation in Virtual PC).
Matthew Soldo
Yes it's possible, although - to the best of my knowledge - only via copy & paste (between the 2 worlds). I usually write my articles in Word (under OS X) and paste the content (without formatting) into CD (under Virtual PC / XP).

After recently seeing an ad that told people to "live life loud", our team had a discussion about how there is a cultural belief that louder is better. However, we all know that this is misleading since excessive noise exposure is linked noise-induced hearing loss. As anyone with tinnitus or hyperacusis can attest, loud can be painful.
We talked about how there are lots of fun activities that are quieter so here are 10 ideas:
- Reading – Escapism at it's best. I could go on for hours about how awesome reading is.
- Colouring – Adult colouring books are all the rage right now. I recently saw a Dr. Who themed book so there is something out there for everyone.
- Museums – Quiet contemplation.
- Massage – *sigh*
- A walk in the forest or whatever scenic environment you prefer. Breathe in that fresh air.
- Creative hobbies – Picking up a new hobby keeps your brain fresh and can be very relaxing. Knitting, painting, pottery, cooking or collecting comic books.
- Meditation – Quiet your mind as well as your environment.
- Meeting a friend for coffee or tea in a cozy cafe – with cake of course.
- Learn a new language such as American Sign Language
- Did we already mention reading? That is something our clients say that they do a lot more once they have significant hearing loss.

Facts Concerning The Heating, Lighting, Ventilating, And Plumbing Facilities Of The Moody Church
The first part of the new building to be constructed was the foundation of the section adjoining the alley at the north which has been spoken of as the Sunday School building. It was on this basement that the Temporary Tabernacle was constructed which has now been demolished to allow the building operations to proceed. While for convenience the church section has been spoken of as the church building and the Sunday School section as the Sunday School building, in reality when the builders have finished their task the whole will appear as a single huge edifice covering the ground …Read More >

Meet Little Boy
And onto the rescue on October 10, 2009, comes Little Boy!! Little Boy was 5 years old on arrival. He is really as big around as he is tall. We put him in the front pasture but the girls out there were not really thrilled about him moving in. It took a while for them to get used to him but still they have to put him in his place sometimes.

To succeed in any business, you have to advertise. These days, most online advertising comes in the form of sales copy (think sales letters, e-mails, and ads) and content (think blog posts, white papers, and e-books).
Whether you're producing copy or content, whatever your purpose, editing is absolutely necessary.
This is especially true for academic-oriented businesses. Any parent who knows a little about writing will turn and run from an academic service that has mistakes in their materials.
"There's no way I'm sending little Timmy to a tutoring service that uses your when they mean you're," Mom says. "I can't trust them to teach my son how to write." It may be an honest typo, but Mom doesn't know that. She thinks she can't trust you.
First off, my number-one piece of advice for editing: If you can hire a pro, do. Even if you're an amazing, experienced writer, it's critical to have that second set of eyes. Even the best writers can't see all their own mistakes. A lot can slip by when you're editing your own work:
Here's the thing: You can't always see your own errors. You're too familiar with the message—too invested in the words.
In writing for your business, there are some important things to consider. If you're editing your own work (or having someone else edit yours), here are some steps you can take to make sure your work is polished.
Remember: your audience may be educated, but it's always better to bring the reading level down as far as possible while treating them with respect. Make your writing accessible. Big words don't always impress readers, and you run the risk of alienating your customers. Academic Snob is not a good look in business.
For a reading-level check, try readable.io.
You'll need to go through your text a few times if you want it to be perfect. Here are a few things to look out for. This isn't a complete checklist; it just scratches the surface of some of the most glaring errors that could get you into trouble with your audience.
Comma check!
Avoid comma splices, especially, but check out all these comma errors, too. There are a lot of them, but they're important if you're proofreading your own work or having a friend do it for you.
Apostrophe check!
RIGHT: That's Tonya's horse.
RIGHT: It's my horse.
WRONG: These gift's are for the kid's.
Semicolon check!
RIGHT: What comes before the semicolon should be a complete sentence by itself; the same is true for what comes after.
RIGHT: Your child should bring the following things to school: A backpack; a lunchbox with an entrée, a drink, and a napkin; a blue, green, or yellow folder; and a water bottle.
Capital letter check!
Capital letters are for proper nouns (names), beginning sentences, acronyms, and not much else. Many people use them for any important word. Please do not do this. Check your capital letters and, if you need to, ask Google.
Sentence structure check!
WRONG: Our instruction and hard work of your child are the building blocks of success. (Eek. This almost sounds like the teachers are harsh taskmasters, standing by while the child works in some kind of academic coal mine.)
RIGHT: Our instruction and your child's hard work are the building blocks of success. (This one makes the teachers and the child partners in academic success. Whew.)
A word of caution about automated tools: Don't do everything your spelling checker, your grammar checker, and Grammarly say to do. They're great tools, but sometimes they make some really nutty recommendations. (Please say I'm not the only one who has been told to change "Joe and Sue are friends" to "Joe and Sue is friends.") If something seems off to you, investigate further.
There are, of course, many, many, MANY more rules, but these basics will help you polish your work before sending it out into the world.
But do follow most of them for the sake of your message and your reputation.
Some rules to break:
If your budget allows, please hire a pro editor to do your editing and proofreading; you'll have peace of mind that your message represents you well. If not, you can do it yourself, but please take your time and do it carefully. Use the above as a starting place to check and double check your writing. Good usage is still important, especially if you want to impress!
I'm Sarah Jenne Foster. I'm a proud Texan (no, I don't own a horse or a cowboy hat); an experienced teacher; the loving caregiver of two kids, two cats, and a frog; and a tireless advocate of the serial comma. I'm on a mission to use the power of words to help businesses that serve children and families.

CLEVELAND, OHIO — As delegates at the Republican National Convention approved a platform banning women from combat, restricting a woman's right to an abortion in cases of rape or incest, and without any mention of equal pay or paid family leave, Phyllis Schlafly looked on with a huge smile.
The notorious 91-year-old anti-feminist and RNC delegate sat in her wheelchair in the back of Missouri's delegation, craning to get a look at Donald Trump as he entered the arena for the first time on Wednesday night. During the 1970s, Schlafly led the opposition to the Equal Rights Amendment, which would have amended the Constitution to ban discrimination based on gender. Schlafly, who has participated in every convention since 1952, told ThinkProgress that Trump is the candidate to best represent the needs of women from the White House. In fact, she said, there's no need for a woman in the Oval Office at all.
"Our greatest presidents have all been men," she said, "and they've been very good for our country."
The GOP platform this year looks strikingly similar to its official platform during the years when Schlafly fought to keep women in the kitchen. It places severe restrictions on a woman's right to control her own body, calling for the courts to strike down a woman's right to an abortion. It also discusses what the GOP sees as benefits of a "traditional family," claiming that the 40 percent of children who now are born outside of marriage are five times more likely to live in poverty than children raised by both a mother and father.
Our greatest presidents have all been men
Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton — the first woman to earn the nomination of a major party's ticket — has said she would prioritize women and families in the White House. She has vowed to give all U.S. workers 12 weeks of paid family leave and has laid out a plan to close the wage gap between men and women.
But Schalfly, whose group Eagle Forum successfully defeated the ERA, said Clinton's plans are an insult to women and that it is "ridiculous" to think she would help women get ahead.
"Women don't need anything special," she said. "Women need a free country just like men."
Currently, U.S. employers are not required to offer workers any amount of paid leave, and only 12 percent of private sector workers have access to paid family or medical leave through their employer, according to the Department of Labor. Millions of workers are forced to return to work and forego caregiving responsibilities for their children or aging parents because of the risk that they would lose their jobs.
The GOP platform makes no mention of paid leave, and Trump also has avoided talking about the subject on the campaign trail.
Schlafly, agreeing with her party's platform, said that a national policy on paid leave is "not what we want at all."
"We've got very generous family leave right now," she said. "I do think the support of the children is the responsibility of the husband, not the employer."
When ThinkProgress pointed out that fewer than half of all children now live in "traditional families" with two married heterosexual parents, Schlafly replied: "Well I don't think it's the employer's job to pay for the child."
Of all the pro-women policies Clinton is endorsing, however, Schlafly took the most issue with the Democratic Party's support for women in combat. The GOP platform calls for reinstating the ban, which was lifted in December by Defense Secretary Ashton Carter. Clinton supported that decision and has said women should be allowed to make their own decisions about whether or not they engage in combat.
"The worst thing she's doing is calling for the drafting of women," Schlafly said. "It's terrible because once you go in the army, you go where you're told, and women are not suitable for combat and can't do combat as well as men. It's endangering the survival of our country to pretend that women can engage in military combat like men."
Schlafly endorsed Trump during the GOP primaries, claiming he is everything that grassroots Republicans want.

Switzerland has stated that it will maintain its support for the development of a multilateral solution for taxing the digital economy to avoid unilateral actions that jeopardise growth and innovation.
Fundamental changes to Swiss withholding tax on interest paymentsSwitzerland | 09 August 2019
The Federal Council recently announced its intentions to resume the temporarily suspended Swiss withholding tax reform and set out the general framework to introduce a paying agent tax system with regard to interest payments. However, as the Federal Council's communication did not contain any details, it remains to be seen how the reform will be set out in the draft bill expected in Autumn 2019 and how it will affect paying agents and investors.
Switzerland adopts new corporate tax reformSwitzerland | 24 May 2019
Swiss voters recently approved a new corporate tax reform, which will set the basis for new rules on Swiss corporate taxation and secure and enhance Switzerland's overall attractiveness as a business location. The reform includes a patent box, an R&D super deduction and a notional interest deduction for high-tax cantons. There are also substantial non-tax (revenue-raising) measures and new provisions on social security contributions.
Welcome relaxation of Swiss withholding tax rules on foreign bonds guaranteed by Swiss parent companySwitzerland | 22 February 2019
The Swiss Federal Tax Administration recently relaxed its practice under which bonds that are issued by foreign resident issuers, but guaranteed by their Swiss resident parent company, are requalified as domestic issuances which trigger Swiss withholding tax on interest payments. The revised rules significantly increase the permissible use of proceeds in Switzerland.
Intra-group debt financing: updated safe haven rates and thin capitalisation rulesSwitzerland | 15 February 2019
The Swiss Federal Tax Administration recently published the 2019 safe haven interest rates to be used on intra-group loans.

In the context of the bill on the Federal Act on Tax Reform and AHV Financing, the Swiss Federal Tax Administration recently announced that, as of 1 January 2019, it will abstain from granting rulings which safeguard the tax privileges of new principal companies and finance branches. Existing rulings for these regimes will no longer be valid after 1 January 2020 as part of the overall Swiss tax reform.
Swiss Parliament approves corporate tax reformSwitzerland | 28 September 2018
The Swiss Parliament has approved the revised version of Tax Proposal 17, a proposal for corporate tax reform.

Swiss Upper House issues revised Tax Proposal 17Switzerland | 22 June 2018
The Council of States recently issued a revised version of Tax Proposal 17, a proposal for corporate tax reform. The new proposal is based on the government's March 2017 proposal and aims to set the basis for new rules on Swiss corporate tax (the last proposal having been rejected in a nationwide referendum in February 2017) and secure and enhance Switzerland's overall attractiveness as a business location.

Switzerland and Brazil sign double taxation agreementSwitzerland | 18 May 2018

Government adopts Tax Proposal 17 and submits dispatch to ParliamentSwitzerland | 13 April 2018

Initial coin offerings – more clarity on tax implicationsSwitzerland | 02 February 2018
Switzerland has become a major hub for initial coin offerings (ICOs). Yet to date, there has been little clarity about the resulting tax implications. Recent discussions and tax ruling negotiations with representatives of several tax authorities in Switzerland have provided more clarity on the tax implications of ICOs, at least regarding tokens issued by Swiss companies raising funds under the promise of a participation in future revenues.
Government publishes detailed draft for corporate tax reformSwitzerland | 22 September 2017

Securitisation & Structured Finance
Legal considerations of assignment of receivables under Swiss international private lawSwitzerland | 03 March 2020
From a Swiss legal perspective, in order to ascertain the enforceability of an assignment against a debtor of receivables, the assignment of a receivable must be subject to the law governing the receivables. Further, in order to safeguard the validity of a Swiss law-governed assignment of receivables under a formalities perspective, care must be taken that a wet-ink original of each declaration of assignment is made available to the assignee.
Key considerations regarding asset classes and assignability of receivablesSwitzerland | 22 October 2019
In recent years, the number of publicly placed and listed securitisation transactions in the car leasing and credit card sectors has increased significantly. The driving force behind this development is economic rather than legislative, as Swiss law places no specific restrictions on asset classes eligible for securitisation. However, compliance with certain Swiss legal concepts is crucial when setting up a securitisation transaction involving Swiss law-governed receivables.
Securitisation transactions: avoidance actions under DEBASwitzerland | 02 July 2019
A key consideration for any investor or rating agency is the insolvency analysis of a securitisation transaction. In this context, the insolvency remoteness of the special purpose vehicle is a decisive element. Another important consideration are the circumstances under which a securitisation transaction may be set aside in the context of an insolvency proceeding. This article focuses on the avoidance actions set out in the federal Debt Enforcement and Bankruptcy Act.
Legal considerations regarding SPVsSwitzerland | 26 March 2019
Switzerland has no specific securitisation legislation. Therefore, securitisation transactions are subject to the general legal framework that applies to all other financial transactions with respect to, among others, both corporate law and regulatory matters. This article provides a short overview of certain company-related aspects to consider when setting up a special purpose vehicle structure for a securitisation transaction in Switzerland.
Regulatory aspects of securitisation in SwitzerlandSwitzerland | 22 January 2019
The Swiss securitisation market is highly active and attractive for both issuers and investors. However, Switzerland has not enacted any specific securitisation legislation. Therefore, securitisation transactions are subject to the general legal framework that applies to any other type of financial transaction. This article provides a short overview of several regulatory aspects to consider when setting up a securitisation transaction in Switzerland.
Securitisation in Switzerland – an overviewSwitzerland | 06 November 2018
The Swiss securitisation market has developed steadily and successfully in recent years, attracting various issuers for both private and public transactions. Many of these issuers have become constant issuers on the Swiss market, which remains active and driven by the still low (or negative) interest environment. Specifically, recent notable activity has concerned auto-lease assets and credit cards, mortgage assets and the asset-backed security market environment.
The Mortgage Bond System: An Alternative Source of FinanceSwitzerland | 14 April 2009
The ongoing disruption of credit and capital markets is urging banks to pursue refinancing solutions that have rarely been used in the past or that have previously been used in a different context. A recent transaction shows that the mortgage bond system might become an efficient refinancing tool in situations where a secured refinancing transaction is difficult to structure or an off-balance sheet securitization is not possible.
Opco/Propco Structures under Swiss LawSwitzerland | 04 December 2007
The use of operating company ('opco') and property company ('propco') structures has recently become increasingly common in the Swiss lending and securitization market. Using these structures often leads to more efficient and less expensive financing. This update outlines some of the most significant features and issues related to setting up an opco/propco structure.
Transferring Agreements under Transfer of Assets RulesSwitzerland | 19 June 2007
A provision of the Swiss Merger Act facilitates a transfer of assets from the originator to the securitization vehicle in a securitization transaction. Although some issues require clarification, the new transaction method will in most cases facilitate the transfer of a portfolio consisting of a large number of agreements, particularly with regard to the third-party consent required for such a transfer.
CMBS Wave Finally Hits SwitzerlandSwitzerland | 01 August 2006
Switzerland has recently seen a major increase in both origination and securitization activity in the commercial real estate market. It is expected that this year will see another increase in commercial mortgage-backed securitization (CMBS) transactions, and that future multi-jurisdictional and pan-European deals including Swiss assets will be conducted.
Applicability of Investment Fund Law to Structured ProductsSwitzerland | 18 October 2005
The Swiss Federal Banking Commission is consulting on its Position Paper on the Applicability of the Investment Fund Law to Structured Products and Other Finance Vehicles. The paper asserts that structured finance products have evolved to the point that they have become publicly offered substitutes for regulated investment funds; therefore, they should be regulated as investment funds.

IT outsourcing by banks and insurers facilitated by revised regulationsSwitzerland | 10 January 2020
On 1 January 2020 the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority implemented various revised rules primarily targeting small banks (the so-called 'small banks regime'). Among other aspects, this will result in a relaxation of IT outsourcing requirements for financial institutions. The amendments are positive and a step in the right direction, as they will allow financial institutions to enjoy more leeway to benefit from IT outsourcing services.

Review of private WhatsApp messages on work mobile phone deemed unlawfulSwitzerland | 19 July 2019
The Supreme Court of the Canton of Zurich recently clarified that employers must clearly regulate the private use of work communication devices, as well as any related control mechanisms.

Revised domain name rules grant further powers to registries and anti-cybercrime servicesSwitzerland | 24 April 2018
A revised version of the federal Ordinance on Internet Domains recently entered into force. It gives the responsible registries the possibility of temporarily blocking the top-level domain names '.ch' and '.swiss' where they are being used for phishing or malware activities. In addition, anti-cybercrime services can request that registries block the domain names. However, these services require prior recognition from the Swiss Federal Office of Communications.
Revised postal and telecoms surveillance legislationSwitzerland | 29 November 2017
The Federal Council recently announced that the revised Postal and Telecommunications Surveillance Act and its implementing ordinances will enter into force in March 2018.
