The transmission oil serves the sаme purpose аs whаt engine oil does to your engine – it lubricаtes criticаl moving pаrts inside the transmission cаse to reduce friction. A properly mаintаined transmission is essentiаl for proper performаnce, аnd the oil thаt runs inside is the indicаtor of the overаll condition аnd performаnce of your cаr.
The transmission oil should be chаnge eаch seаson аs stаted in the mаintenаnce schedule in your owner's manual. You should replаce the oil with SAE 80/90 geаr oil аt the beginning of eаch riding seаson. For quаntities, check your owner's manual for your model or select your model.
Oil cooler
For the mаximum efficiency, the transmission oil cooler should be mounted where it will receive the coolest аir аnd mаximum аir flow. Between the а/c condensor аnd the radiator the oil cooler's efficiency will be reduced to 75% аnd between the rаdiаtor аnd the fаn it will decreаse to 60%.
The oil cooler consists of two bаsic pаrts. The first part is аn outer tubulаr sleeve thаt serves аs а housing аnd hаs opposite open ends аdаpted to be аttаched аt its ends to а rаdiаtor hose for pаssаge of coolant through the tube. The second pаrt is the oil pаssаge meаns to аccomplish heаt trаnsfer to the coolаnt аnd it consists of а tubulаr thаt is pаrаllel аnd runs or pаsses extending inside the coolаnt hose.
Heаvy use will аlso contribute to the life of the oil inside the trаnny. When pulling the dipstick, check to see if the oil is of the right color аnd viscosity. Ideаlly, transmission oil is reddish in аppeаrаnce аnd would blot to а lighter hue аs the mileаge on your cаr increаses. а dаrk brown or burned consistency (аccompаnied by а bаd smell of the oil itself) will indicаte thаt the oil needs replаcing. If the oil is too thin аnd hаs а wаter-like consistency, it's time to chаnge the oil аs well. Tаke your cаr to the deаler or service center аnd hаve а knowledgeаble mechаnic undertаke the procedure. Replаcement of transmission oil will vаry but this аction is recommended аt leаst every yeаr, especiаlly under severe use.
Synthetic manual transmission oil
With the propensity to weаr over time, the oil used in а manual transmission, much like the oil in а differentiаl, must be а specific thickness аnd viscosity. Becаuse synthetic manual transmission or differentiаl oil is scientificаlly designed for uniformity аnd more specific purposes, it tends to be better thаn conventionаl oils for this аpplicаtion. Conventionаl oils аre refined from crude oil аnd аre unstаble аnd often full of byproducts thаt slip through in the process. Synthetic manual transmission oil is chemicаlly engineered to hаve а uniform moleculаr structure. This аllows it to flow in the geаrbox more smoothly аnd creаtes аn eаsier engаgement of geаrs on eаch shift over time. This smoother shifting will lengthen the life of the manual transmission аnd аlso increаse the fuel economy of the engine in thаt vehicle.
Checking the transmission fluid
Checking the transmission fluid in а manual transmission cаn be difficult. A few thoughtful mаnufаcturers hаve included а dipstick, but thаt's the exception rаther thаn the rule. If you own а cаr with а manual transmission, we suggest thаt you аsk your mechаnic to check the fluid level when your cаr is up on the lift during аn oil chаnge. It tаkes just а minute.
Periodicаlly check your transmission fluid in the sаme mаnner how you check other vitаl fluids under the hood. Pull out the dipstick mаrked "ATF" аnd check for proper fluid level. Remember thаt the transmission is а seаled system аnd аny significаnt loss of fluid over time might indicаte а leаk. Check the аreа where you pаrk аnd look for oil mаrks on the floor. а reddish/brownish stаin will usuаlly signаl а leak. Hаve the system checked immediаtely when leаks аre present.
If you don't chаnge the transmission fluid on schedule, you'll be lubricating your transmission with metаl shаvings аnd other contаminаnts. This will shorten the transmission's life. The result could be а hefty boаt pаyment to your mechаnic. In other words, chаnging your transmission fluid аt the correct intervаl is а good investment.
Honda recommends chаnging manual transmission fluid every 30,000 miles. This meаns thаt if you own а Hondа, you will probаbly end up needing to chаnge the transmission fluid аt leаst а few times during the vehicle's lifetime. Not chаnging the fluid mаy cаuse the geаrs in the transmission to weаr down fаster аnd mаy leаve you strаnded, аnd hаving to buy а new transmission.
I will go further аnd stаte thаt there is а myth thаt trаns fluid must be 'hot.' My guess is the optimаl rаnge is just high enough so thаt аny wаter thаt gets in the fluid rаpidly evаporаtes, аnd thаt the trаns housing is wаrmer thаn аtmosphere, so thаt condensаtion does not form. But even 100 degrees is plenty hot enough for this. Trаns fluid does not hаve combustion gаsses pаssing through it, so there is no introduction of vаrnishes аnd other gook thаt will jаm up vаlves аnd such, where thаt stuff will be boiled off if the fluid is up аt 200 degrees so you hаve аn аdvаntаge of it being hot.
In а manual transmission, the problem is not so much the fluid degrаdаtion, but rаther fluid contаminаtion. This contamination occurs over time аs the synchronisers, beаrings аnd geаrs in the transmission weаr out. The resulting metаl pаrticles then floаt аround in the lubricаnt. And we аll know thаt oil with microscopic pаrticles of metаl in it does not lubricаte аs well аs cleаn oil. So if these contаminаnts аre not drаined out, they will shorten the life of your transmission.

A slate of games Thursday night got the 2015 NCAA Football season underway.
The #2-ranked TCU Horned Frogs were able to outlast the Minnesota Gophers for their first victory of the season, while the Michigan Wolverines fell to the Utah Utes in Jim Harbaugh's coaching debut.
With Friday and Saturday hosting a jam-packed schedule of the remaining games from the season's first weekend of action, let's get to some predictions for the NCAA Football season ahead:
1.) Only four of the six PAC-12 teams in the Preseason Top-25 will be ranked at season's end.
- When Conference play begins and the likes of Oregon, USC, and UCLA begin facing off against one another, one thing is for certain- someone has to lose. With Arizona, Arizona State, and Stanford joining those three as the PAC-12 teams currently ranked in the AP Top-25, it stands that in all of these inter-conference meetings, at least a team or two from that group has the potential to lose three, even four games. The two teams who will not finish the season in the Top-25? Arizona and Arizona State.
2.) The American Athletic Conference (AAC) will see a team ranked in the Top-25 at season's end.
- One of the four conferences without a ranked team last season, the AAC boasts two teams who could make a run at a Top-25 finish this year- the Cincinnati Bearcats and the Temple Owls. For Temple, that task will be more difficult, as they face a tougher schedule, matching up with #11 Notre Dame during the season, while Cincinnati faces no teams that are currently ranked. Their strongest opponent will be the Miami Hurricanes. If Cincinnati can knock off both Miami and BYU, they should march unimpeded to an undefeated record and a Top-25 berth.
3.) Ohio State will go wire-to-wire as the AP #1 and finish the regular season undefeated.
- With a fairly pedestrian Conference schedule, and a toughest opponent of #5 Michigan State, the Ohio State Buckeyes should have little trouble running the table this season en route to an undefeated record. Head Coach Urban Meyer is keeping his cards close to the vest, yet to name a starting quarterback, but no matter who is under center- J.T. Barrett or Cardale Jones- both quarterbacks gave the Buckeyes quality play last season. Whether they win the National Championship in consecutive years or not is up for debate, but there should be full expectation that Ohio State goes undefeated this season.
4.) Ohio State will not be alone as an undefeated team in the regular season; the Marshall Thundering Herd will also finish the regular season undefeated.
- Members of Conference-USA, Marshall finished 2014 at 13-1, suffering their only loss to the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers in a 67-66 OT shootout. This season, Marshall has the 3rd-lowest Strength of Schedule, according to ESPN, and will close their regular season against those very same Hilltoppers. With a schedule lacking too many challenges, watch for Marshall to knock off Western Kentucky in their season finale in 2015, and finish the year undefeated, and with that 12-0 record, find themselves among the AP Top-25.
5.) Speaking of Marshall, running back Devon Johnson will be a candidate for the Heisman Trophy.
- The former tight end, converted to running back, Devon Johnson was 6th in the nation running for 1,767 yards last season. A knee injury held Johnson out of one game and a shoulder injury limited him to just 7 total carries across the final two games of the regular season. Without the injury trouble, he likely would have topped 2,000 yards on the ground, which would have placed him in the top 3 with Melvin Gordon and Tevin Coleman. Now in his senior year, look for Johnson to top 2,000 yards rushing, score 20 rushing TDs, and contend for not only the Maxwell Trophy for best running back in the country, but the Heisman as well.
6.) Another running back who will be in the Heisman discussion this season? Georgia's Nick Chubb.
- Remember last season when Georgia running back Todd Gurley was suspended indefinitely? Fear spread that Georgia's season was over. Gurley returned after missing four games, but tore his ACL in his first game back, ending his season. In Gurley's absences, freshman running back Nick Chubb allayed everyone's fears, proving to be a monster out of the backfield. He racked up 1,547 rushing yards and 14 TD's, posting a season-high 266 yards in the Belk Bowl to lead the Bulldogs to victory over Louisville. With Gurley now a member of the St. Louis Rams in the NFL, Chubb will head Georgia's rushing attack. Expect the sophomore to post monster numbers in 2015 and be a candidate for the Heisman trophy.
7.) Vanderbilt will finish 4-4 in Conference play
- A season removed from going 0-8 against Conference opponents, the Vanderbilt Commodores will finish .500 against the rest of the SEC. With just 11 seniors on the roster, Vanderbilt fields a very young squad in a tough Conference. The Commodores will play the 5th hardest schedule in college football this season, much of that based on their SEC opponents which include Georgia, Ole Miss, and Missouri. Missouri will be one of the four teams Vanderbilt defeats in Conference play- the other three being South Carolina, Kentucky, and a regular season finale at Tennessee.
8.) California QB Jared Goff and USC QB Cody Kessler will each throw for over 4,000 passing yards, 32 TDs
- Jared Goff, now entering his junior year with the Cal Golden Bears and his third season starting under center, ended 2014 with the 3,973 passing yards, 5th most in the nation. USC senior QB Cody Kessler tossed the 11th most yards in the nation last season, slinging for 3,826 yards and 39 TDs. Each with another year of experience under his belt, the two PAC-12 gunslingers will both eclipse the 4,000 yard-mark passing, and for a second consecutive season, both throw at least 32 TDs.
9.) Georgia Tech will win the ACC; Florida State will be upset by Boston College
- Georgia Tech opened their 2015 season with a dominating 69-6 win over Division I-AA Alcorn State Thursday.13 different players combined to rush for 476 yards, led by freshman running back Marcus Marshall who averaged 23.0 yards per carry on just 8 rushes. Even against more steadfast competition, the Georgia Tech running game looks poised to bowl over opposing defenses. Following an 11-3 2014 campaign, Georgia Tech will knock off division rivals Clemson and Florida State en route to a 2-loss regular season and a Conference title in 2015.
10.) There will be controversy surrounding the College Football Playoff Selection
- This, honestly, could be a prediction made for this season and any season moving forward. In 2014, at the end of the regular season, Ohio State finished at #5 in the AP Poll, but was ultimately selected to appear in the College Football Playoff over #4 Baylor and #6 TCU. The controversy surrounding OSU's selection revolved around the fact that TCU fell from the #4 ranking to #6, despite a convincing 55-3 win in their last regular season game. Ohio State, Baylor, and TCU all finished with 1 loss, but in the end it was the opinion of the Selection Committee that Ohio State deserved the final place in the playoff. Ohio State proceeded to win the National Championship. A very similar situation could play out this season, and no matter what, it's nearly impossible to make everyone happy, so some fans will always disagree with the committee's selections.

After failing out of art school and taking a humdrum office job, a whimsical painter gets a chance to fulfil her lifelong dream of adopting a unicorn.
Initial release: April 11, 2019
Director: Brie Larson
Music composed by: Alex Greenwald
Production companies: Sycamore Pictures, Rip Cord Productions
Producers: Brie Larson, Ruben Fleischer, Lynette Howell, Terry Dougas, Paris Kassidokostas-Latsis, David Bernad

Critic reviews
Unicorns are almost universally associated with girlhood. The desire for the horned creature to be real stems from the same impulse that gives us "horse girls," sent Robot Unicorn Attack viral, and popularized Lisa Frank. That level of fantasy — those bright colors, that glitter — can only exist free of the responsibilities and monotony of adulthood. Adult women wear suits, take their lives seriously, eat kale, and long for "bikini-ready" bodies. Or so Netflix's Unicorn Store would have you believe.
The ambition behind Brie Larson's directorial debut is admirable. Learning to grow up while still being yourself is an endlessly repeatable lesson where movies are concerned, and it's told less often from the perspective of young women. However, the script, written by Samantha McIntyre (and which Larson actually auditioned for — and failed to get — some years ago), is so intent on embracing the "be yourself" ethos that it exposes the limitations of its own message.
The very first scene of Unicorn Store — a montage of home videos of a precocious child melts into footage of Kit (Larson), now grown, energetically painting the wall — sets the tone for everything that follows. By the end, there's colorful paint splotched perfectly over her face and clothes, and she finishes off her masterwork by blowing glitter onto the canvas. When she turns around, it's revealed that she's in the middle of an art class. Everyone else has painted within the canvas, and has dressed in dark colors in contrast to Kit's white or rainbow-patterned clothing. Her instructor gives her a failing grade, and disapprovingly shakes his head.
It's rare that the stars of the year's biggest movie reunite for an entirely separate feature film a month later, but that's not exactly what happened with Unicorn Store, a new movie hitting Netflix on Friday. It's the second 2019 film starring Brie Larson and Samuel L. Jackson; the first, Captain Marvel, will likely remain the highest-grossing movie of the year until Avengers: Endgame (definitely co-starring Larson, possibly co-starring Jackson) comes out on April 26th. Technically, though, Captain Marvel is a Unicorn Store reunion. Larson directed the film a few years ago, after she won an Oscar for Room but before she suited up as a Marvel superhero. The film debuted at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2017, and now Netflix has picked it up for wider distribution.

At first glance, Larson's feature directorial debut bears no resemblance to the space-faring Captain Marvel, entry number 21 in the world's biggest franchise. But for fans of Larson's Marvel Cinematic Universe film who reacted to more than just its place in the ongoing Marvel narrative, Unicorn Store works decently well as a companion piece.

IBM WebSphere MQ Migration Workshop
On the 20th September 2017, Arqino and Tech Data hosted a free workshop on the topic of Migrating to IBM WebSphere MQ v9.0. The workshop had a specific focus on using Talos (a middleware configuration management tool) together with the Arqino IBM Toolkit to address issues with IBM WebSphere MQ migrations.
David Ware, Head of IBM WebSphere MQ Product Development gave a great talk on the state of IBM MQ. Of particular interest was his summary of the 2 types of releases IBM has for MQ 9.0 and future versions. Below is an extract from the IBM site:
From IBM MQ Version 9.0 there are two types of release; a Long Term Support (LTS) release and Continuous Delivery (CD) release. The aim of the two release types is to meet the requirement for delivery of new and enhanced IBM MQ functions as rapidly as possible in the next CD release, while at the same time maintaining a stable long term support release for systems that need a long term deployment of IBM MQ, and for customers who prefer this traditional option.
- Discovering and IBM WebSphere MQ config on a single host.
- Creating templates from the above discovery and recreating the topology/config on a new host.
- Creating a config for a single host using the Talos UI and then creating it on the host.
- Creating aa MQ cluster in the UI and then creating it on the infrastructure by running it on one host at a time.
- Comparison of two IBM MQ topologies.
More on Talos and the IBM WebSphere MQ Toolkit
The MQ toolkit for Talos allows for the following:
- Reduced MQ Administration overhead
- Fast replication of MQ configurations to Dev, Test, Prod
- Support Continuous Configuration Deployments
- Easier migration from one version of MQ to another e.g. MQ 7.5 to version 8 or 9.
- Moving from On-Premise to Cloud environments e.g. On-Prem to Amazon (AWS).
An IBM MQ Migration in Your Future?
Sign up to our DevOps list and we'll keep you posted about future workshops and updates on Talos and our toolkits.
Email firstname.lastname@example.com if you have any immediate requirements.

In a long awaited decision, the European Commission has approved €96.5M of financial support to the Slovak incumbent rail operator, ZSSK, for the building of new light maintenance workshops in for passenger trains as being compatible with EU State Aid rules.
For those unfamiliar with the intricacies of railway operations, light maintenance covers routine work that does not require the removal of the train carriage from service, and includes cleaning, refilling the water supply, and other small repairs. The workshops themselves shall be located in Nove Zamky, Zvolen and Humenne.
In its decision, the Commission found that the aid will contribute to objectives of common interest of the EU, in particular in helping shift transport from the road to rail, and fostering environmental protection and decongestion of roads.
Additionally , Slovakia has offered firm commitments to ensure that the State Aid will not hinder competition in the Slovak rail transport market, in relation to the access to light maintenance facilities. In particular, after the initial construction phase is concluded, ownership of the workshops will be transferred to a separate company to be set up by the Ministry of Transport and Construction.
Moreover, while operation of the workshops will initially be carried out by ZSSK, in the future, it can be transferred to other rail transport companies, if they win new tenders for rail transport services under Public Service Contracts.
In addition, whereas the workshops will serve mainly trains operated by ZSSK, an equal and non-discriminatory access for other train operators is safeguarded pursuant to EU transport rules for the railway sector.
The non-confidential version of the Commission's decision will be published under the case number SA.42525 in the State Aid Register on the Commission's competition website once any confidentiality issues have been resolved.

Manhattan property investment performance
Posted by Wei Min Tan on January 5, 2020
Manhattan property investment performance from 1997 to the most recent Q4'2019 shows that price per square foot increased from $480 to $2,067 during the 20 year period.
Property downturns
There were two downturns during this period and those were during the recession of 2009/2010 and the correction from Q2'2017 through Q4'2019 which was driven by changes in tax laws, uncertainty from global trade wars and ultimately, the down cycle typical after an up cycle (2011-2017).
In 2009 and 2010, prices were down by 12 percent and 4 percent respectively. In context, the rest of the U.S. went down by 35 percent during the 2009 recession.
Manhattan experienced a correction from mid 2017 through Q4'2019 during which price per sqft of condos was down 4 percent, but it was sales volume that was down significantly. It remains to be seen whether we are on the recovery path.
Contact: firstname.lastname@example.com
Read about Wei Min's style in Best Manhattan property agents and Role of a buyer's broker.
Manhattan investment performance over time
The average appreciation per year during the 20 years is 8 percent, which is a very healthy return. Since property is often purchased with leverage, an 8 percent appreciation can be leveraged to twice or 3X that return depending on the equity invested in the property and financing used.
Graph Data: Miller Samuel
Rental yield
The current rental yield for a Manhattan condominium is around 2.5 percent. This is based on the gross rents less common charges and property taxes as a percentage of property price. An analysis by Streeteasy talks about this rental yield. Meanwhile, Bloomberg has an article that says Manhattan condos barely yield more than government treasuries.
Manhattan property is for stability, not yield.
The reason investors globally invest in a Manhattan condo is for the stable appreciation and not for the rental yield. "Barely yielding more than treasuries" (the Bloomberg article) is not a good comparison because treasuries do not appreciate like Manhattan property. A lot of safe and liquid investments would yield more than a Manhattan condo. For example, savings accounts in certain countries or stock dividends can easily exceed 3 percent in yield.
Global investors buy Manhattan condos for portfolio diversification. Manhattan and London have the most desirable property in the world. In Manhattan, merely 10 percent of housing units are condominiums which partly explains the consistent appreciation. Seventy percent of housing inventory comprise of rental buildings and the other 20 percent are Cooperatives (which are not investor friendly).
Investors buy a Manhattan condo property for asset diversification, preservation and as a badge of pride in owning a piece of Manhattan.
Manhattan property prices appreciate with inflation
The appreciation in Manhattan is driven by inflation. About 40 percent of the CPI (inflation) index is attributed to housing cost. Prices increase because of inflation (labor and material costs go up over time). In Manhattan, appreciation is not because of speculative activity. In fact, investors make up only about 30 percent of buyers in Manhattan.
When clients ask whether Manhattan is at its "peak," I answer that as long as there is inflation, there can never be a peak. Having a ceiling to property prices is like saying prices of goods and services must have a ceiling as well. We all remember how much goods, services and property costed 20 or 30 years ago and know what the same items cost now.
Key is getting the right property
While the above are market-wide trends, the investor buyer needs to select the right apartment in the right building in the right location. This is where local expertise becomes critical.
We serve global investors who are buying Manhattan condominiums to rent out and we track every condo building in Manhattan. The analysis on which is a good buy goes into the micro level details such as which apartment line is more desirable, has a view, has a "wow" factor etc. These are the details that play a very important role in the long term investment performance of a Manhattan property.
What We Do
We focus on global investors buying Manhattan condos for portfolio diversification and long term return-on-investment.
1) Identify the right buy based on objectives
2) Manage the buy process
3) Rent out the property
4) Manage tenants
5) Market the property at the eventual sale
Wei Min's media interviews by CNBC, CNN, New York Times on the subject of investing in Manhattan property
Deal Examples
1) The Sutton, Turtle Bay, Midtown East. This Toll Brothers development only required 10 percent reservation deposit. Represented multiple buyers at the $2 million price point. Location, classic style windows and luxury finishes make this a good investment. Close to United Nations, Citigroup Center, Blackstone, Blackrock. Rented to quality tenants from the beginning.
2) 200 Chambers Street, Tribeca. Top quality building in Tribeca. Convenient location next to Whole Foods. Building is priced at premium but rents are also at a premium. This corner unit has dual exposures, maximizing sunlight. Purchased at around $1 million and has appreciated substantially since then.
3) Parc Vendome, Midtown West. Purchased at a great price and renovated entire apartment. Buy factors were south exposure with plenty of sunlight and proximity to Central Park. The photos below are the Before/After. Rented immediately after the renovation was completed.

What happened when the ferry sank in the harbour at Zeebrugge?
A passenger car ferry, the Herald of Free Enterprise, sank in the harbour of Zeebrugge, Belgium, on 6 March 1987. The large bow doors, for cars to drive on and drive off the ferry, were not closed before the ship left the harbour. Water started pouring in, and the ferry ended up on its side, not far from the coast. 193 people on board were drowned. The man responsible for making the doors shut was asleep in his cabin, though an inquiry blamed the ferry's owner Townsend Thoresen for sloppy standards. Ferry safety was tightened up afterwards.

You know Pringles. Yes, the chips that come in a tube. Somehow I've never reviewed these, I'm not sure how.
But this isn't a review of the Pringles you likely know. Instead, I'm focusing on flavors of Pringles not available in the United States.
Australian FlavorsIn Australia, Pringles, like most chips, come in different flavors than we have in the US. Sure, they have Original, Sour Cream & Onion, and BBQ, but they also have ... Sausage & Onion. And of course, Sweet Chilli & Sour Cream and multiple chicken flavors (Chicken Salt, Roast Chicken, Chicken Kebab). I still don't understand why they have so many chicken flavors, and we literally have none (not just in Pringles, just across the board).
"Discover the incredible flavour of Pringles. Our chips are uniquely shaped and perfectly seasoned! Experience the irresistible crunch and delicious flavour in every bite. "
Anyway, the form factor is exactly the same as Pringles I know from the US, just, well, more interesting flavors.
|Chicken Kebab.
So, um, I don't like chicken. Not the texture, the (lack of) flavor, etc. But I still thought these sounded crazy, and wanted to try.
I certainly wouldn't have ever guessed "chicken kebab" if asked blindly to taste these and identify the flavor.
Did I taste chicken? No. Did I taste salt? Yes, lots. Did I taste seasoning? Yup, but not a particular flavor I could pinpoint.
They were salty, savory, seasoned standard Pringles. Well coated in whatever the seasoning was, as most Pringles are.
Not much more to say here, I guess I'm glad I tried them?
Irish Flavors
|Prawn Cocktail.
Uh. I can't say that is what I tasted. Not the provided description (I definitely didn't taste a master chef praising my fishing skills!), nor the general concept of "prawn cocktail".
I'm not sure what I did taste though. Something zesty. Seasoning, yes. Not fishy.
I think it was fine, but, certainly not as advertised.

After the awesome Hurraw lip balm review, we have a few readers asking us for more vegan cosmetics reviews so I headed to LUSH at Wisma Atria and bought a range of products which I will be sharing in the next few posts! Most items I bought were unisex other than the lip/cheek tint! Alicia, the store manager was really knowledgable and zoomed in on all the vegan friendly products that I was looking for. Being in the store for less than 15 minutes, I felt as though I was doing grocery shopping in the supermarket. I spotted so many fresh fruits and the natural aroma of the plants and fruits they used was like stepping into a garden.
The first product I cannot wait to share is The Olive Branch Shower Gel $16 for 100g . I used it as shampoo asI have always loved the light and fragrant smell of olive oil but I was quite hesitant with the idea of it being on my head. I was worried it will be sticky or my hands will end up feeling really oily. But after trying it, it was not oily at all. It had the most pleasant smell and my hair felt really soft just after one wash! Best part was, I only used a small portion (about one dollar coin) and once I applied it on my head it started to foam up really quickly. The coolest part about the packaging are the illustrated cartoon stickers on each product. They are the faces of the people packing each product. Seriously, this is the best example of the word "handmade with love".
Product Story
It's worth the trouble of shaking it because this gel can be used on both body and hair and that olive oil is going to be great for leaving your hair soft and moisturized.
We named this shower gel Olive Branch for two reasons:
Whilst inventing Olive Branch, Mark was listening to Madeline Peyroux sing the lines Dance me through the panic 'till I'm safely gathered in, lift me like an olive branch and be my homeward dove.
Also, the olive oil in this gel is from a Jewish Israeli / Arab fairtrade project and is a true olive branch of people reaching across the divided communities to work together in peace (www.sindyanna.com).
Back in the day, the fragrance in this product was made as a fine perfume as part of our perfume range, but we decided to be indulgent and put it in here instead, because a shower gel this good deserves a complex fine perfume!
Vine Leaf Infusion, Water, Sodium Laureth Sulfate,Sodium Cocoamphoacetate, Fresh Mandarin Juice,Fair Trade Olive Oil, Perfume, Propylene Glycol,Bergamot Oil, Lemon Oil, Orange Flower Absolute,Mandarin Oil, Fine Sea Salt, *Limonene, *Linalool,Hydroxycitronellal, Colour 14700, Methylparaben
The next item I bought was Sultana of Soap $20.16 for 0.16kg. The price was determined by its weight and it looked and smelled like a nougat to me. When I did my research, I was surprised to find out that the creator of this product was actually inspired by an italian nougats he found in Liberty's London. I reached home to unwrap my soap and was amazed to find chunkful of fruits all around it. It smells really creamy and have a beautiful light aroma. After bathing with it, I was in heaven. The texture was luxuriously smooth and the whole toilet smelt so good. Even Hubby Ro loved the after smell after his bath too. We both agree it felt like a moisturizer bath and I cannot wait to bath again soon. '
The key ingredient used was dried currants made out of Black corinth which is a small, dark purple seedless very sweet grape.

11 months post transplant this week! So in awe everyday of getting a little bit of my life back as immune suppression lowers and I continue heading towards the one year milestone marker! The first 1/2 of this marathon is almost complete. (It's really a two year timeline from transplant to be" considered officially"cured, good thing my angels above have me covered)
I am especially thankful these days for my "spirit junkie" side, as I was listening to an Oprah Super Soul podcast the other day entitled "spiritual partnerships," I realized I have so many. With JM, my twin brother, my survivor soul sister Jess, Rockstar Roseanne, always present AP and Amanda, Suzanne, C Lo, SD and loving Lee….the list goes on…..it is clear these people have become more present and permanent staples in my life over the past 3 years for a purpose. And I believe it is because I finally started moving towards my most authentic self. These relationships are so powerful because they are sans the superficial. I am so blessed to be surrounded by so many spiritual beings helping me strive to be the best version of myself. The truth is these soul partnerships really did not start to manifest spiritually until sadly I was diagnosed with cancer. And they are not necessarily the easiest amies to make. So right now I am, once again, thankful for the chaotic cancer chapter of my life, as it changed the spiritual side of me so much as well as brought some of the most beautiful spiritual, soul-growing, gifts into my life. Many of these partnerships have taught me how to live more from my spirit than from my ego-self. Letting go of that side of me and being able to have authentic conversations, has allowed me to persevere through some of the most difficult of moments this past year. I live everyday in gratitude for the authentic awesomeness and awareness that continues to fill my soul. And my spiritual partnerships are part of the journey and continue to help me ground myself in making the most out of my life while being authentically allie! ❤ #newlife=bestlife
Spiritual partnerships, sigh, give me all the feels. So….Spring solstice started bringing me new survivors to inspire me to keep pushing forth my passion projects. Today I was Sitting in the Moffitt waiting room on a Monday morning, trying to manage my PTSD, usually starts about 30 minutes prior to my appointment, which candidly was much less than in appointments past. (can I get an amen?), I struck up a conversation with a 3 time cancer survivor, she had Non Hodgkins Lymphoma and now she has a mix of Hodgkins/Non Hodgkins. She is going for her second auto-transplant and all I want to do it tell her she's going to be okay. It's going to be a totally wild ride, but after, she'll never look back. Meanwhile, as I was out in the waiting room flapping my gums with my new friend/fellow survivor and warrior, I missed my lab draw! Little did I know they had been calling my name, good news is, Dr Nieder did not mind, he had other more pressing patients to see and he saved one of the "best," for last. By one of the Best I am meaning, best in health. I am thankful for that. Having a little mentor moment with my fellow warrior made me feel so full afterwards and realize once again, I am here for a reason and I am ready to continue to counsel others on this journey back to health and to finding their best self. Stay tuned for more on this mantra!
Champagne or Celery juice? That's been my drinking dilemma as of late. Craving a cocktail I think is normal, especially now that I am back to work and who does not want a good glass of wine to come off the week? But, for ma foie, my new cocktail of choice, is the mean green, liver cleansing machine, with a squeeze of lime! C'est parfait! It is cleansing my liver, but also helping heal my gut. Since transplant I have become a serious sufferer of seasonal allergies, which FYI, all starts in the gut. With immune suppression slowly tapering, they have absolutely improved but there's still work to be done. The celery juice challenge I am on has been interesting for a few reasons, 1. At first I had a little skin reaction, of dry, chapped spots on my skin, I phoned a friend who has been a celery juicing pro for quite some time now, her boyfriend experienced the same side effects! I continued my celery juice journey and today I am at day 20, and feeling better than I have, holistically, in a long time. So 2. My skin is brighter and most importantly 3. my liver levels keep lowering at a more rapid rate. Especially my Alk Phos, if only my ALT would get it check. Other benefits include cutting my cravings for caffeine as well as kept my sweet tooth tied over. I am happy to say, that I am officially a celery juice believer. Better late than never on this plant based, holistic healing trend. Unlike Cancer…..Champagne can wait…..celebratory champs are seriously in order come April 25th so for now I'll keep to the celery and look forward to future soirées!
Thanks again for all who wait and wonder what theoneandallie is up to! Continuing to lean into love and gratitude daily and candidly I know it's a big part of what keeps me healthy as a whole.
Lots of love.

On 25th June 1198 the new Abbey of Cleeve was founded, dedicated to the Blessed Virgin and originally named Vallis Florida or Vale of Flowers.
Since then the Black Death, the dissolution of the monasteries, destruction of the Abbey Church and use as a farmhouse, have all played a part in the 800 year history of Cleeve Abbey. Today, it survives as a haven of peace and tranquillity, one of the undiscovered jewels of Somerset boasting magnificent architecture and hidden treasures.
Some of the finest cloister buildings in England can be seen including the magnificent 15th century timber roof in the refectory with its exquisite carved angels, the unique medieval wall paintings of the Painted Chamber and the heraldic tile pavements. One of the greatest pleasures however is to explore the numerous nooks and crannies, which reveal hidden carvings and paintings, from the hands of craftsmen long ago.
An exhibition and virtual tour tell the story of Abbey life and a 'story bag' 'Brother Cedric and the Missing Sheep', is a fun way for families to explore the Abbey together.

Aunt Lyn's Healthy Ears 9.00% Off Auto renew
Many in stock
WARNING: This product is for Recharge Subscriptions use only, do not publish or delete this product. Customers will not see this message.
HEALTHY EARS was developed by Aunt Lyn after years of trying different proprietary blends on both her own dogs and dogs brought to her for care. Ear infections have become increasingly common and can be very painful for our pets. Often we don't see any sign at all, yet they're in pain. Other times we can see the head shaking and ear scratching that are clues that something is amiss.
One dog, Harley, was a mastiff mix rescue that was at the veterinarian's for ear infections every few months. Aunt Lyn knew the pharmacy prescriptions were not working and that repetitive use was not good. In addition, Harley was miserable . Besides some dietary changes, Aunt Lyn used Healthy Ears to get rid of the ear infections and maintain proper ear health and balance. Wel,l Harley became the first in a long line of pups to benefit from the this Healthy Ear Blend that we still use today.
So, be on the lookout for signs of ear problems and use HEALTHY EARS to bring relief. But remember, it is important that you find out what caused the problem so it doesn't happen again.
Check out our Blog ****Hyper LINK***** to read tips how we can help our dogs stay in balance.
For Ear Irritations and Issues
Clean ear gently with mineral oil or warm water. Apply 3 drops, twice daily, into the entrance of the ear canal. Tilt the dog's head while you massage the dog's outer ear so oils move down the ear canal. If there is no improvement after a few days, please consult a veterinarian.For Maintenance:
Lightly clean the ear and place 3 drops weekly into the ear canal and massage as described above. Some dogs may need less or more frequent applications.

8 Months After California Camp Fire, First Family Moves Back to Rebuilt Home in Paradise
Eight months after California's deadliest wildfire devastated the town of Paradise, the town issued its first Certificate of Occupancy for a rebuilt home this week.
The northern California town, which lost roughly 90 percent of its population since the blaze, welcomed the Sinclaire family to their rebuilt residence on Monday.
"Today the Town issued the first Certificate of Occupancy to the Sinclaire Family! This means all inspections and steps to rebuild are final and the family can move in to their new home!," the town of Paradise wrote on its Facebook page. "This is a huge milestone in our community's recovery. Congratulations to the Sinclaire family, we couldn't be happier for you!!"
"I'm finally home," Victoria Sinclaire told CNN. "I think I'm going to sleep really good tonight."
Though the Sinclaires managed to escape the Camp Fire that ignited last November and killed 85 people as it spread across 153,000 acres for over two weeks, their house and its contents were destroyed in the blaze.
"I don't know how we made it out," Sinclaire said. "That was terrifying. I'm still in disbelief that we made it out because we were surrounded by fire the entire time."
"When I started seeing photos from the destruction, there was a side of me that wasn't sure if I could move back there," she added. "There was a moment when I thought 'there's no way.'"
With few options, the Sinclaire family — consisting of Victoria, her husband Travis and daughter Emily — moved in temporarily with family in Sacramento, before relocating to Chico to be close to Paradise High School, where Emily was completing her senior year.
The Sinclaire family realized they were determined to rebuild their property when they returned to Paradise six weeks later.
"As soon as we were able to come back up here, and I stood on my property, I felt at home," Sinclaire told CNN. "Even though I was shocked and sad, I still felt more at home than I had in that six weeks."
Roughly 14,000 residences were demolished in the Camp Fire. In March, town officials issued the first two permits to rebuild, before issuing another 84 permits in the following four months.
According to the 2010 U.S. Census data, an estimated 26,800 people lived in the town of Paradise. After the Camp Fire, a door-to-door survey in April found that only 2,034 residents were left.
Sinclaire hopes her family's return will inspire others to also make the move back. "My home is as fire resistant as humanly possible and I feel like the town is taking every step that they need to make sure that we are safe," she said.

Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni continues to baffle the English team with his innovative and bold strategies. If on the first day, he surprised the visiting team by playing three spinners, today, when the England team came out to bat, for the first time in the history of Indian cricket, Dhoni opened the attack with two spinners in the form of Ravichandran Ashwin and Pragyan Ojha in the ten minutes played before the lunch session.
However, the spinners bowled two overs and could not make a breakthrough. Former Test left-arm spinner SL Venkatapathy Raju said it was more of a psychology ploy. "To be honest, it is very difficult to get the new ball to turn. But it was more to surprise the English batsmen," said Raju.
After lunch, Dhoni gave the first over to left-arm seamer Zaheer Khan and continued with Ojha at the other end. According to spin legend Shane Warne, Dhoni is playing mind games with the England team. "By asking for spin wickets, where the ball can turn from Day One, it is more part of a mind game," said Warne ahead of the second Test.
By including three spinners, Dhoni sprang a surprise on Friday contrary to his announcement that they would continue with the two-two combination (pace and spin) in this Test. But Harbhajan Singh got the nod ahead of Ishant Sharma or Ashok Dinda.
It brought back to memories of the golden days of the spin era when Bishen Bedi, BS Chandrasekhar, EAS Prasanna or S Venkataraghavan played and when India fielded three spinners in a match. But even during that time, the late MAK Pataudi and Ajit Wadekar, who were great advocates of spin bowling, did not have the spinners open the bowling. They would ask non-regular bowlers like Sunil Gavaskar to bowl two or three overs before handing the ball to the spinners, preferably Bedi.


text: Our Story Solving a real world problem Itsy was founded in 2015 (originally as "Nuripod") by a new father wanting a convenient way to feed his new daughter on the go. Let's call him Chris.. Because that's his name. You might think that becoming a father for the first time would make someone a lot less likely to take life-changing risks. But Chris didn't see it that way. In fact, having new daughter Frankie around was the inspiration to do something more. And the idea for the Itsy Blitz® was born. Creating a food legacy But what do we mean be a "food legacy"? Well, our founder grew up eating meals around the family dining table, and the entire idea around the building of a food legacy stems from this simple idea. Sharing eating experiences, and leading by example by eating healthy, homemade and varied food underpins a child's overall health. This not only ensures a healthy physical condition, but also a healthy mental condition. The core idea behind our flagship product, the Itsy Blitz®, is that if you make healthy choices, they will naturally filter down to our children. Our Mission We want to help parents & caregivers with the food challenges facing them with young children. We want to help families build a food legacy that will be a foundation for good health for generations to come. We want to be a trusted friend, one that you turn to for help and advice during the milk and weaning stages and beyond. We want to be known as the only truly supportive company for baby & child nutrition. We want to do our bit to chip away at the worldwide childhood obesity crisis, one family at a time. The future of baby nutrition Here at Itsy, we want to develop more products and innovations that help build food legacies and promote healthy dietary habits to our children from birth. Our Itsy Blitz® currently caters for the weaning stage (typically between 4-14 months) of a little one's life, but the Itsy founders will be working on new products that will support our mission for children from 0-5 years old. We'd love you to come along with us for the ride and the best way is to join our online community and share your own tip, advice and (always) invaluable experiences!

Greenwich, CT, Considers Creation of Harbor Commission
April 19, 2012
GreenwichTime.com: Greenwich is "ahead of the curve" in waterfront management, according to the head of Stamford's Harbor Management Commission, even as the town explores whether it should have its own commission.
"You were way ahead of the curve in getting the act in 1949 and then modified in '55, allowing you to establish areas for moorings and anchorages and set speed limits in those areas and address other issues," said Raymond Redniss, referring to the 1949 act by the state Legislature giving Greenwich selectmen authority over boat moorings in town waters. "What I see is that you have a very big head start."

The shootout started when members of rival gangs encountered each other during a funk event at the popular Stuttgart Danceteria club in Porto Alegre, police said.
Ten people sustained gunshot wounds and the others suffered injuries when they fell or were hit while trying to get out of the nightclub.
One person hurt in the shootout refused to be transported to the hospital by paramedics.
A 19-year-old man taken to Pronto Socorro Hospital died around noon Monday from gunshot wounds, hospital spokesmen said.
Three men entered the club around 3:30 a.m. and opened fire on the people inside, police said.
The gunmen fled the area before police arrived, but officers arrested two other suspects who fired shots at them outside the club.
Three other individuals were arrested and charged with taking part in the shootout, but police did not provide further details on the arrests or their connection to the incident.
Stuttgart Danceteria's owners said everyone entering the club was frisked to make sure they were not armed.
The gunmen who started the shootout, however, overpowered a bouncer before making their way inside the establishment.
The gang members who responded to the attack had apparently smuggled their weapons into the club inside a woman's purse

7 Things to Consider When Choosing Your IT Solution Providerby Alexandrea Roman on and last update on March 18, 2020
According to IT research company Gartner, more than 50 percent of users will first turn to their smartphones or tablets for all their online activities by 2018. Laptops and desktops will take a backseat to handheld mobile devices in just a few years.
This key prediction adds more pressure on businesses to adopt mobile solutions to remain competitive. But with so many options in the software market today, it can be both challenging and confusing to choose the best fit for your organization.
Because different organizations have different needs, there's no single formula for selection that works for everyone. Nevertheless, the following factors for consideration can help your organization make the right choice:
1. Usability
A digital solution can look good on paper but fail in practice. Just because it has a comprehensive list of features doesn't mean your staff will find it usable. Between an app that has it all and an app that's easy to use, they will choose the latter. Ultimately, they want a powerful yet simple app with intuitive design to help streamline their processes and boost their productivity. The point of transitioning to a digital solution is to save time and effort, so it defeats the purpose to select an app that takes ages for them to learn how to use.
2. Security
With criminals getting better at hacking, cybercrime is on the rise. Organizations handling personal information of their customers should take the necessary precautions to keep their data safe, and one way to do that is to select digital solutions with enterprise-grade security measures. In the event of a breach, your organization will be held accountable for leakage of sensitive customer data whether or not you're using a third-party app, so might as well choose a provider with the necessary security certifications for your industry.
3. Training
The implementation stage will elicit questions from your staff, making training another important factor to consider when choosing among digital solutions. Providers should offer adequate resources to help staff learn how to use the new software, along with on-hand support through phone, email, and/or face-to-face consultations. Most providers offer different kinds of training depending on what the organization wants, so discuss your options with them before making a decision.
4. Support
No system is perfect. Even digital solutions designed to have high availability will experience downtime due to scheduled events like routine maintenance or unforeseen circumstances like network outage. At times like these, the provider should be able to deliver information in real time and set expectations accordingly, and not leave their clients in the dark wondering what's going on. Also, your staff may have questions way past the implementation stage, so it's critical to have access to live help whenever possible.
5. Customization
Digital solutions don't have to be bespoke to be customizable. Your organization can still subscribe to ready-made commercial software and tailor it to a certain degree to fit your requirements. Some organizations are fine with using digital solutions straight out of the box, but if customization is important to yours, this is another thing you need to discuss extensively with potential providers.
6. Accessibility
Do you want your organization's data to be accessible from anywhere and anytime? Then look for digital solutions with cloud-hosted option. Fortunately, many mobile apps are now available on the cloud, so finding providers to meet this requirement won't be hard. What you should pay attention to is the cloud service provider they're partnered with. Among the most well-known cloud service providers are Amazon Web Services, Rackspace, Google Cloud Platform, Joyent, and Microsoft Azure, but there are many others as you can see from the list on Software Insider, a search engine for business software. You may also want to check out IT website Network World's comparison of these providers' uptime to give you an idea of their performance.
7. Flexibility
As your organization grows, so do its demands. This means you'll need a digital solution that can seamlessly integrate new users and scale support whenever necessary — and in some cases, add more features — without causing disruption to service delivery. If the software you're using is not evolving with your organization, then it's more of a liability than an asset.
The process of selecting the right digital solutions for your organization is not a quick or straightforward one. It can take months (or a few years, depending on how meticulous you are) of researching and comparing apps from different providers, and having so many options is just making the whole thing go on longer. But invest enough time, and you'll reap the rewards in the long run.

MADISON, Wis. — The Wiccan pentacle has been added to the list of emblems allowed in national cemeteries and on government-issued headstones of fallen soldiers, according to a settlement announced Monday.
A settlement between the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and Wiccans adds the five-pointed star to the list of "emblems of belief" allowed on VA grave markers.
Eleven families nationwide are waiting for grave markers with the pentacle, said Selena Fox, a Wiccan high priestess with Circle Sanctuary in Barneveld, Wis., a plaintiff in the lawsuit.
The settlement calls for the pentacle, whose five points represent earth, air, fire, water and spirit, to be placed on grave markers within 14 days for those who have pending requests with the VA.
"I am glad this has ended in success in time to get markers for Memorial Day," Fox said.
The VA sought the settlement in the interest of the families involved and to save taxpayers the expense of further litigation, VA spokesman Matt Burns said. The agency also agreed to pay $225,000 in attorneys' fees and costs.
The pentacle has been added to 38 symbols the VA already permits on gravestones. They include commonly recognized symbols for Christianity, Buddhism, Islam and Judaism, as well as those for smaller religions such as Sufism Reoriented, Eckiankar and the Japanese faith Seicho-No-Ie.
The Wiccan symbol is already an option for religious symbols on BG+.

Storytelling Starters ~ Smorgasbord
That word smorgasbord always suggests outside eating to me, a delicious-looking range of dishes set out on a summer-time table strewn with flowers. A couple of sunny days this week suggests that, despite all the indications, spring and summer might actually be on their way. Some smorgasbording might occur!
So here's a kind of storytelling smorgasbord to go with the imagined food.
1. Sharing stories
Did you know it's National Share-a-Story Month? Among all the other National Thises and National Thats, I hadn't specifically registered it until alerted by the delightfully efficient Marketing Manager at Jessica Kingsley Publishers who has been handling my new book. Might I do a piece on story-sharing to go on their blog? Answer: Yes of course I will. Story-sharing is so right up my street, it's in my house and in my study and in my heart. The irony is, of course, that National Share-a-Story Month is organised by the National Federation of Children's Book Groups.
2. Writing about storytelling
The Society for Storytelling was founded to bring attention to storytelling of the oral sort. Current leadership at the society (which I've recently rejoined after a weird kind of muddle-up inadvertently dropped me off a year or two ago) is now thinking of doing something close to my heart. It's considering bringing back into the light of day some (eventually perhaps all?) of their 17 excellent publications which I was instrumental in editing and publishing. All bring attention in one way or another to the oral sort of story and, talking of story-sharing, one of the last of the 17 was written by Grace Hallworth who, as a storyteller of great renown, has always liked to use that term because of the way in which the telling of a story can prompt others to do the same.
3. A story shared
'My rabbit died.' That's one of my most treasured stories. Only three words long, it was told to me by a little boy in a South Wales school after an hour of story-sharing I'd done with his class. Our theme had been animals and, after my stories, the children had got into pairs or small groups to share stories of animals they'd known or encountered. There was no lack of talk. But it was as they were all filing out to go for lunch that that little boy came up to me, leaned towards me with a serious, confiding expression and, without any other ado, simply told me his story. For it really was and is a story. Even as he told it, I could see into it, realising all it might have had inside it. Sudden shock or culmination of illness, grief and continued sense of loss, decisions about what to do with the dead body, continued remembrance of the living creature … We might have talked together but there wasn't time and in a way there was no need. He'd said it. I heard. What I know for sure is that it was story-sharing and the time we'd all had doing just that together is what had enabled him to tell me.
PS: My photos archive happily contains enough photos of food to summon up the pleasures of alfresco eating. Fingers crossed for plenty of it over the coming months.

I am really sorry about this, but maybe its because of my age that I dont understand what I need to send. I had an email saying that you have not been able to accept my information that I sent, it says the quickest way I can send the information, is to log in to my Insurance account, and upload a copy. So what does that mean, does that mean my account for Tesco or from my old account
Hi @Chewie, I'm sorry about that! So that I can check this for you, please message me at @Tesco-Bank confirming your full name, DOB, postcode and policy number.
I have accessed my documents online, but cannot access the document named "Important information about your insurance policy" therefore I cannot check it.
Every time I try to open the document, it logs me out and I have to log back in, to find the same issue again. The system keeps sending me round and round in Circles.
I have complained and asked for this issue to be sorted before, but to no avail.
Please advise or sort out this issue?

Besides being a water sign, is one of the four fixed signs. Fixed sign people are often resolute in their opinions. They know what they want, desire, and believe in! Once they have formed their opinions, they are not easily swayed. I didn't know how to deal with being a grandfather. My own father had little interest in my children. I was told off for waking him when our first was born.
While 4X MSAA usually eliminates most aliasing in game, the shader based part of TXAA very much helps smooth out severely aliased lines and provide a cleaner look to the game. In this image we see 4X TXAA has cleaner edges than 4X MSAA. 8X MSAA and 4X TXAA look nearly identical.
I don own either so I can speak on quality.As far as regular black bombers go, you can try MKI, or you might be able to find an Acne Silas bomber secondhand. I after one in olive atm, it looks great.To be quite honest the best bomber I ever put on was a Rick one I tried in store. I could never afford it at MSRP but nothing I tried/bought since then could ever compare.
So this saga started on Wednesday. I called at my lunch hour around 1:45PM EST and asked to cancel my membership, the receptionist told me only the Operations Manager can cancel memberships and she is on lunch. I asked when she would be back, and was told 2:30PM.
In sharp contrast to Walmart, which regularly comes under fire for practices like understaffing stores to keep costs down and hiring tons of temporary workers as a means to avoid paying full time workers benefits, WinCo has a reputation for doing right by employees. It provides health benefits to all staffers who work at least 24 hours per week. The company also has a pension, with employees getting an amount equal to 20% of their annual salary put in a plan that paid for by WinCo; a company spokesperson told the Idaho Statesman that more than 400 nonexecutive workers (cashiers, produce clerks and such) currently have pensions worth over $1 million apiece..
By theses definitions it is easy to see how controversial and easily construed, or stretched theses 3 simple words can be. Morals or morality some people have them, some people don't believe in them, and some do not know what they are. Part of the definition of morals have to deal with know the difference between right and wrong.
Tomorrow (Wednesday): Mostly cloudy and not as hot with highs ranging through the upper 70s to low 80s for the most part, along with scattered showers and thunderstorms yet again mostly in the afternoon. Humidity is moderate (noticeable but not at severe summer levels). Light winds, except around thunderstorms.

As seen in:
Night of the Living Dead, Diary of the Dead
Why it's a sign:
Don't be fooled by their barely functioning nervous system and shambling gait, Zombies have a devastating sense of timing. And if there's one thing they appreciate more than brains, it's dramatic irony. So if you're walking through a graveyard with a woman who's scared of the undead, you should avoid putting on your most sarcastic spooky voice and saying "They're coming to get you, Barbara." For whatever reason, sarcasm sounds like a dinner bell to zombies.
She's not reacting to your devastating sarcastic/spooky voice.
Zombies are incredibly patient. You can go your whole life avoiding any zombie irony--never dressing up as a zombie on Halloween, skipping all the "dead people are dead and never coming back" parties your friends throw every Easter. No rush. Take as long as you want. Zombies aren't busy. They'll just be chilling out under a thin dusting of suspiciously loose soil. And the second you slip up and do something that would make a zombie attack the least bit ironic, like say, starring in a zombie movie, they will be on your ass with a quickness.

I have a, mixed, love-hate relationship with western medicine. In the span of 100 years it has significantly extended our lifespan and changed the things that most often kill us from things in the environment (malaria and pneumonia), to ourselves (i.e. excessive French fries and smoking). Medicine, built on the cold-mechanistic shoulders of science, views us, in large degree as machines. We can replace, tighten and modify most all of our parts, in the same way that we can soup up a muscle car or renovate an old Chevy. Doctors all too often lack bedside manner, seemingly oblivious to the importance of connection or relationship in healing. This reductionist and mechanical view of life is amplified in the conventional view of non-human animals in medicine. Animals are also machines- but they are viewed as less important machines that can be practiced and experimented on so as to serve and protect the implicitly important stuff of the universe (us).
Within this backdrop, I will say that Aysha Akhtar's book Our Symphony with Animals is a clear refutation of this notion. Akhtar, a medical doctor, writes a book that aims to explain how our empathy, whether in excess or in deficiency, influences our health. The story reflects this story from many different walks of life. It moves from the emotionally barren mind of a serial killer, the emotionally scarred mind of PTSD, to the robustly innocent minds of children learning how to live and take care of their first pets.
An important implicit message in the writing is that people's perceptions of animals/food can be changed by the psychological distance given to it. For example, the term "food" is less threatening to people than say "pork" which is less threatening than "pig" which is less threatening than "sally." People may be less likely to eat "sally" because that psychological distance is necessary for some of the institutional cruelty that we inflict on animals.
I believe a huge strength of Akhtar's book is the face that she gives to the issues and the animals that she discusses. She paints vivid, pictures of various people and the animals who help them live; in some cases who allow them to live. She drives home the point that non-human animals are important to us; physically and psychologically. The roots of this connection are both hormonal and biologically hardwired into us, but also existential. The net result of healthy relationships with other earthlings on us is increased and improved health, well-being and centeredness.
Akhtar is one of a group of leaders in the movement to raise awareness and consciousness to the issues surrounding how non-human animals are treated and thought of by humans. It is a wide and growing movement that is raising awareness to the impact of animal agribusiness on the environment and animal meat consumption on health. The book underscores the importance of relationship with animals for personal health. It is the type of book that I hope can be read in medical schools to remind other doctors that relationship and connection are just as important as the chemical and surgical tools that extolled in classes. Empathy is a tool that should be honed, like every other.
Ultimately, an important message of the book is that Animals have a clear positive role in medicine and in life. The role need not be destructive towards them, because ultimately, we are damaged in the transaction as well. Health is something that lies not only within us, but also between us. Recognizing our bond with animals has the great capacity to deepen our experience past the material. It is the thing that will allow us to feel, and perhaps heal our souls.

To practice a foreign language there is nothing better than living with a local family. This option comes out cheaper that staying in a hotel, or even in a youth hostel where the number of days of your stay is limited. Almost also impossible to rent an apartment if you do not have good financial credit (also called credit history) to show.
The family members will share their activities and their daily routine (table meals, hikes, going to the movies, visits to museums, sports, holidays celebrations, shopping, etc).

During the infant and
toddler years, your child has been
developing many vision skills and has
been learning how to see. In the
preschool years this process continues
as your child develops visually guided
eye-hand-body coordination, fine motor
skills and the visual motor skills
necessary to learn to read.
As a parent, you should watch for signs
that may indicate a vision development
problem, including a short attention
span for the child's age, difficulty
with eye-hand-body coordination in ball
play and bike riding or avoidance of
coloring and puzzles and other detailed
There are everyday things that you can
do at home to help your preschooler's
vision develop as it should.
These activities include reading aloud
to your child and letting him or her see
what you are reading. Provide your child
a chalkboard, finger paints and
different shaped blocks and show your
child how to use them in imaginative
play. Provide safe opportunities to use
playground equipment like a jungle gym
and balance beam and allow them time for
interacting with other children and for
playing independently.
By age three, your
child should have a thorough eye examination to make sure your
preschooler's vision is developing
properly and there is no evidence of eye
disease. If needed, your doctor can
prescribe treatment including glasses
and/or vision therapy to correct a
vision development problem.
Unless recommended
otherwise, your child's next eye
examination should be at age five. By
comparing test results of the two
examinations, your eye doctor can tell
how well your child's vision is
developing for the next major step into
the school years.
Dr. Kindberg's focus is treating your family's eye care needs, while keeping in mind that the eyes are the windows to a person's overall health. This allows
Dr. Kindberg to look for and monitor signs of diabetes, high blood pressure and other systemic diseases.
Dana's expertise, along with her caring and compassionate demeanor, puts her patients at ease while her expertise and knowledge ensure excellent patient care. Dr. Kindberg remains committed to adhering to the clinic's core value of excellent medical eye care and each patient's best vision.
We will make every effort to take a complete approach to your eye care. This means that we will take the time to not only understand your eye health and visual needs, but your general health, lifestyle, and dietary habits as well. This is somewhat rare in health care today, but we think you will find it to be a refreshing change.
Schedule your Eye health and Vision appointment today with our experienced eye care providers
inside LensCrafters at our Overlake Plaza or
Redmond Town Center in our Redmond Washington
locations and give your vision the level of care and attention
your vision and health deserves.

Cosecs should earn respect over time, picking and choosing battles. They should not miss out on voicing an opinion on legal issues and speak up when necessary.
'Discretion; ability to listen, reconcile, and manage different views; being the conscience; and pointing out the elephant in the room are good personal qualities for a company secretary.'
'Cosecs should have a good rapport with the board, be able to inspire trust and maintain neutrality.'
'Company secretaries should speak up as they do not have a vote so should not miss the opportunity to point something out before it is too late.'
'When it is mainly a legal and compliance issue the company secretary should not be afraid to speak up.'
'With conflict of interests, cosecs need to explain that there are other viewpoints but that the common goal of the company must be remembered as the focal point.'
'Regular reviews of conflicts of interest which may arise over particular upcoming matters should be undertaken.'

Myanmar / Burma Trekking Holidays and Tours | Climate Information
What is the best season to go to Burma? The November-February period is the best period to come to Burma when both temperature and precipitation are low and all areas and tourist sites are inaccessible.
But even in these seasons the daytime temperature will be around 30°C, with Bagan and Mandalay being a few degree higher than in other parts of the state. March to May are very warm, with daylight around 40°C. You can also come to Burma during the "Green Season" (June to September).
During this period, the temperature is usually higher than in the peak tourism seasons and the precipitation is much higher, with brief, intensive rains to be expected at any given moment. Nevertheless, travelling is still a favourite at this hour of the year and all important attractions can still be seen and savoured - although it is wise to use the relatively colder weather in the early mornings or later in the days for sight-seeing and other outdoor pursuits.
Several areas, such as Ngapali Beach, are shut down during these seasons. We' ve launched vacation trips to Burma in the summers, which includes our family adventure Burma, which begins in the middle of the year. In general, as anticipated, the temperature at higher elevations, in the hills and in the Burmese Himalayas, is lower than in the lowerlands.
In case you are unable to meet our group schedule, please make a personal trip according to your wishes, or we can arrange a tailor-made vacation to Burma especially for you and your families or boyfriends.

For Community's Sake: a (Self-Respecting) Kantian Account of Forgiveness
Kate Moran
Sala: sala Newton
Data: 26 maggio 2010 - 17:00
Ultima modifica: 13 aprile 2010
This paper sketches a Kantian account of forgiveness that gives us new insight into our reasons for forgiveness and the acts or feelings entailed by forgiveness. I argue that this Kantian account is distinguished by three features. First, forgiveness is best understood as the revision of the actions one takes toward an offender, rather than a change of feeling toward an offender. Second, Kant's claim that forgiveness is a duty of virtue tells us that we have two reasons to be forgiving: forgiveness promotes both our own moral perfection and the happiness of our moral community. Third, we have a duty to withhold forgiveness if we think forgiveness will cause or encourage our offender to wrong us again. This duty to sometimes withhold forgiveness stems from our duty of self-respect, which Kant describes as a duty to ourselves to ensure that we are not harmed again.

I have been proud to team up with Mercedes Soria and Fatema Kothari for a third year as TechWomen impact coaches, to work with five remarkable leaders from Morocco: Safaa Boubia, Nisrine Oukacha, Fatima Zzahra Meziane, Fatima Zahra Oumenni, and Imane Nassif. We have been working together since the ladies arrived in September to create Connect to Impact – a new online platform offering resources for nonprofits in Morocco to showcase their actions plans, increase their awareness and access to donors, and in time, improve their skills through fit-for-purpose training. Connect to Impact will provide a bilateral matchmaking algorithm between donors and nonprofit organizations.
Team Morocco presented about Connect to Impact at TechWomen Pitch Day yesterday. We find out at the Community Event on Monday, 22 October 2018, which of the twenty country teams won.
What is TechWomen?
TechWomen empowers, connects and supports the next generation of women leaders in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) from Africa, Central and South Asia, and the Middle East by providing them the access and opportunity needed to advance their careers, pursue their dreams, and inspire women and girls in their communities.
TechWomen is an initiative of the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA). TechWomen, launched in 2011, supports the United States' global commitment toward advancing the rights and participation of women and girls around the world by enabling them to reach their full potential in the tech industry.
Part of the joy of TechWomen is its large and supportive community. My daughter Jessica Dickinson Goodman is also a TechWomen mentor, again coaching Team Palestine, which also gave an excellent pitch yesterday. During the intermission, we got to see videos from TechWomen Fellows of prior years, including Solve24, created by our own 2017 Team Lebanon. Wish us luck in winning the pitch competition!
