Adirondack Council Executive Director William Janeway and U.S. Sen. Minority Leader Charles Schumer discuss acid rain recovery on the shores of Bear Pond on Friday, Aug. 10, 2018.
LAKE CLEAR | Environmental groups are continuing to sound the alarm on what rollbacks of the Clean Power Plan may mean for the Adirondack Park.
Thirty years ago, a quarter of local lakes were basically dead, said U.S. Senate Minority Leader Charles "Chuck" Schumer, who marveled on Friday at the recovery of Bear Pond following years of acid rain damage caused by emissions blown over from midwestern power plants.
Test results at the isolated pond at the eastern side of the St. Regis Canoe Area in the 1980s revealed pH levels of 5.1, which was "staggeringly unhealthy," Schumer said, killing off creatures like numerous trout species and salamanders.
But the levels have since rebounded to 6.2 following passage of the Clean Air Act in 1990 — a tenfold reduction that has led to the regeneration of native species and wildlife, as well as progress at other hundreds of waterways across the Adirondacks.
"We all know that the (Adirondack) Park been decimated by acid rain," said Schumer, who delivered his comments at a remote shoreline only accessible by a single-lane dirt road. "It was just devastating that this natural beauty had been wiped out, and basically, wiped out by selfishness."
He relayed a quote from Delaware Senator Tom Carper:
"Smog makes the east coast America's tailpipe."
Over time, acid rain also erodes rocks, leading to a leakage of aluminum deposits that subsequently poison trees and waterways. Toxic rainfall also erodes pipes that carry drinking water, leaching lead into the water supply.
Schumer and green groups fear a return of that devastation under a White House they contend is intent on rolling back environmental safeguards.
Schumer said he'll continue to fight against those efforts, including the proposed repeal of the Clean Power Plan by the Environmental Protection Agency.
The framework, he said, is a critical part of the U.S.' efforts to combat climate change.
Measures recommended by the agency would lead to an increase in emissions, he said, including sulfur dioxide, one of the primary pollutants responsible for acid rain.
The Trump administration is also signaling a reconsideration of the Mercury and Air Toxic Standards, Schumer said, which were among the first national standards to reduce mercury and other pollutants from coal-fired power plants.
"That would be just a killer for the Adirondacks and the 12.4 million people who visit this area, many of whom love to fish and have a good time," he said.
Green groups — including the Adirondack Council, who hosted the lawmaker — have also long lashed the administration for failing to enforce the EPA's Cross-State Air Pollution rule, which protects northeastern states from incurring the negative impacts of "externalities" generated by those power plants.
Thirty-six coal-fired plants in the Ohio Valley have declined to turn on pollution control equipment for the second consecutive summer, said Adirondack Council Executive Director William Janeway, leading to a lawsuit from the Elizabethtown-based nonprofit and other green groups.
It is possible for economic development to go hand-in-hand with environmental protection despite concerns from a "hard-right" contingent in Washington, Schumer said.
"It is not anti-economic, it is pro-economic," he said.
During his remarks, a loon emerged from the water, generating delight from the small crowd of residents, scientists and their children.
"Twenty years ago, (loons) were really rare," said Janeway. "There were almost none left in the Adirondacks. When I was a kid, if I saw a loon, I would stop talking. Everybody would stop talking and we'd take pictures and that would be it for the day because they were so rare."
Pete DeMola
Schumer says a resurgence of acid rain would be devastating to the Adirondacks. "It's the young people who will save us," he said.
Both Janeway and Schumer said protection of the environment has historically been a bipartisan priority and there wasn't such polarization between the parties.
"The Adirondacks have been this great success story now jeopardized by this 180 degree turn down in Washington," Janeway said.
Schumer said the isolated surroundings wasn't the most remote location in which he'd staged a press conference.
"I go to a lot of remote places," he said, citing a trip earlier that day to Essex Farm, where he rode on a wagon pulled by draft horses.
The Brooklyn Democrat said he spent his 25th wedding anniversary hiking in the Adirondacks, and told attendees to continue to be active in fighting for green issues.
"It's the young people who will save us," he said. "Actually, the young people are so much more green than the older people."
Schumer also had strong words for ex-EPA administrator Scott Pruitt, who he called a "disgrace" and "corrupt" following revelations of numerous ethical scandals.
"If I become the majority leader, I'm not going to allow a Pruitt to be voted on," he said to applause. "I'm going to do everything I can to make sure that EPA's attempts to undo rules and undo legislation are met with the resounding defeat that they deserve."
He expressed little confidence that Pruitt's replacement, Andrew Wheeler, will pursue a different trajectory.
"I'm not optimistic that Wheeler would reverse anything that Pruitt has done," he said. I'm more pessimistic that he'll continue the bad work of Pruitt."

Recruiting or encouraging young people to get involved in a street gang is a criminal offense. This includes intimidating, forcing, or threatening anyone under the age of 18 to join a criminal street gang.
Recruitment of juveniles for a criminal street gang is a class 1 misdemeanor with penalties including up to 18 months in jail and a fine of up to $5,000. In this article, our Colorado criminal defense lawyers will address:
- 1. What is the recruitment of juveniles for a criminal street gang?
- 2. What is considered a criminal street gang?
- 3. What are the penalties for recruiting juveniles for a street gang?
- 4. Related Offenses
1. What is the recruitment of juveniles for a criminal street gang?
It is a criminal offense for anyone 18 years of age or older to recruit a juvenile under the age of 18 to join a street gang. This includes anyone who solicits, invites, encourages, coerces, or otherwise causes a juvenile to actively participate in a criminal street gang or become a member. It also includes making threats, using force or bodily injury, intimidating a juvenile to become a gang member, or preventing a juvenile from leaving a criminal street gang.1
2. What is considered a criminal street gang?
In order for a defendant to be convicted of the recruitment of juveniles for a criminal street gang, the prosecutor may have to show that the group involved is a criminal street gang under Colorado law.
A criminal street gang is any ongoing organization, association, or group of 3 or more persons which has a primary goal or activity to commit one or more criminal acts, and whose members engage in a pattern of criminal activity. A pattern of criminal activity means engaging in at least two of the specified predicate criminal acts. This includes the commission of a crime, or the attempt, conspiracy, or solicitation of specified criminal acts.2
Street gangs in Colorado may include the nationally active Crips and Bloods, as well as individual local street gangs.
Criminal street gangs are often prosecuted under Colorado's Organized Crime Act. This prohibits organized criminal activity which involves groups like the mafia or criminal street gangs. The predicate pattern of criminal activity includes a number of state and federal criminal acts, including:
- Murder
- Manslaughter
- Assault
- Criminal extortion
- Kidnapping
- Human trafficking
- Arson
- Burglary
- Robbery
- Aggravated motor vehicle theft
- Computer crimes
- Forgery
- Money laundering
- Credit card fraud
- Identity theft
- Sexual exploitation of children
- Pimping
- Bribery
- Attempt to influence a public servant
- Perjury
- Intimidating a juror
- Tampering with a witness or victim
- Gambling
- Possessing an illegal weapon or a dangerous weapon
- Drug crimes
3. What are the penalties for recruiting juveniles for a street gang?
Recruiting juveniles for a criminal street gang is a class 1 misdemeanor. The penalties for juvenile street gang recruitment include 6 to 18 months in jail and a fine of up to $5,000.3
An adult charged with recruiting juveniles for a street gang may also face a number of other criminal charges related to the gang. This may include conspiracy charges related to gang activity even if an individual was not the person who actually committed the crime.
4. Related Offenses
Colorado law on criminal street gangs applies to a number of criminal offenses. These related criminal offenses range from minor vandalism and graffiti to more serious offenses, such as drug trafficking, drive-by shootings, prostitution, weapons charges, assault, and murder.
4.1. Colorado Organized Crime
The Colorado Organized Crime Act prohibits a number of criminal activities aimed at members of criminal enterprises. Criminal gang activity may also be known as "racketeering." Criminal racketeering in Colorado is a class 2 felony, with penalties including up to 24 years in prison and fines of up to $1 million.
4.2. Drug Crimes
There are criminal laws against the possession, sale, manufacture, or trafficking in controlled substances. Penalties for simple possession for personal use may involve drug treatment instead of jail. However, the sale, manufacture, or distribution of drugs can lead to felony criminal charges. The penalties for drug crimes depend on the type of drugs involved, amount of drugs, and the defendant's criminal history.
4.3. Colorado Gun Laws
Gun possession and ownership is subject to a number of restrictions under Colorado gun and firearms law. Certain individuals are prohibited from owning a gun, including fugitives, individuals unlawfully in the United States, and people subject to a restraining order or protective order that prohibits gun possession.
4.4. Vehicle Theft
Aggravated motor vehicle theft in Colorado involves obtaining or exercising control of someone else's car, truck, motorcycle or other vehicles. Aggravated vehicle theft is a felony, with penalties depending on the defendant's criminal history and the value of the stolen vehicle. The penalties for first-degree motor vehicle theft include up to 12 years in prison and a fine of up to $100,000.

text: Leveraging the LMS Posted by Eric Ludwig at 6/15/2016 10:05:25 AM The learning management system is inherently limited. The LMS is a closed system -- i.e., it does not interact naturally with the broader online and digital world. It requires specific programming and technical specifications to make interactions occur between external programs and itself (like an API, or LTI). Though a number of learning management systems are now open source, this has had little impact on the overall user experience and underlying function of the LMS. There are still broader questions we should ask about the centrality of the LMS to learning and how it might constrain our ideas of what online and blended learning can be. For more on this topic, I encourage you to read Michael Feldstein's (2015) excellent four-part series on what comes (or should come) after the LMS and Malcolm Brown, Joanne Dehoney, and Nancy Millichap's (2015) piece on the future of the LMS in Educause Review. As for now, the vast majority of institutions are operating within the LMS-world. That world has a finite number of choices. Despite all of its limitations, the LMS can still be an incredibly powerful tool to deliver learning to students across space and time. And with that learning comes data that tells us a detailed story about what, how, and when our students are learning. Given the ubiquity of the LMS, it should not come as a surprise then that there is an abundance of data available to instructors, staff, and administrators. Learning analytics -- just a fancy term for the data that we can cull from the LMS, enterprise systems, or other digital learning platforms -- provide information that can be incredibly useful when trying to predict student performance and persistence. In a recent post on Inside Higher Ed, Paul Fain gives a brief overview of how certain institutions -- with help from external consultants -- are incorporating the data from the LMS into their retention models. Information gleaned from LMS data can then be used to identify students who are at risk of dropping out or failing. This is often done in concert with an early alert system for academic support and advising. As Fain notes, institutions have traditionally relied on other sources of information (e.g., GPA, midterm grades, advisor meetings, demographic data) to alert them to at-risk students. However, data pulled from the LMS can offer a more accurate and timely picture of student engagement. An end-of-semester GPA occurs at the end of the semester: it might suggest future student performance, or it might tell us that a student has already failed a course. Demographic data fails to tell individual student stories and experiences. A student often requests to meet with an advisor after an event or experience has impacted their success and ability to persist. Fain contends that student GPAs "lag in comparison to engagement data as a predictor". We might expand on his use of the verb "lag" to include the economics term "lagging indicator": a lagging indicator describes a "measurable economic factor that changes after the economy has already begun to follow a particular pattern or trend." These descriptive student metrics tend to tell us the story after it is already in motion. The LMS data can tell us the story in real time. But, the LMS is only as powerful as its users. For many faculty, staff, and students, the LMS still seems far too complex or confusing. Sparse or intermittent LMS usage might lead to unreliable or inconsistent data. In order to strengthen that signal and leverage LMS data to improve student outcomes, institutions should work on the following: Robust and regular LMS usage: train, support, and encourage all faculty to utilize the LMS regardless of learning modality. Whether face-to-face or online, students will use the LMS only to the extent that their instructor requires it. Limited interaction means limited data. Systems integration: the LMS should be seamlessly integrated with other enterprise and assessment systems for easy data tracking and reporting. Modeling & Early Alert: LMS data should be incorporated into retention modeling and early alert systems Staff training: advisors and academic staff should be able to analyze LMS data and be trained to spot indicators for at-risk students

Access content using JavaScript
Content management systems should not be walled gardens; robust platforms with rich APIs are where the future is headed. We built HiFi around a powerful API that can be accessed not only from server-side templates (as you may have used in the template design challenge) but also through a public-facing JSON API.
Getting Started
Step 1) Navigate to your trial site's blog and click through to the 'Second Blog Post' (URL: /blog/second-blog-post ).
Step 3) We will use the HiFi JavaScript library's
each function to fetch some content and iterate over each result. Using the same query from the content challenge we can print the most recently updated pages on the site:
var printTitle = function(page) { console.log(page.title); }; hifi({'type':'page','orderBy':'-modified'}).each( printTitle );
First we defined the callback function,
printTitle, that prints the title of a page. Then we used the HiFi JS API to query for pages ordered descending by modification and iterated through each using the
printTitle callback.
Step 4) Now lets query for a specific blog post using some criteria on its
url property. Here's the snippet:
hifi({'type':'page','url':'/blog/second-blog-post'}).each( printTitle );
The title of the blog post we are viewing will be printed 'Second Blog Post'.
Step 5) In a new browser tab, make sure you are logged in to your site's admin panel. (Place 'edit.' in-front of your subdomain.) In the challenge you will be updating data through the API so you'll need to be logged in.
Use the HiFi JavaScript API's
update function to change the
url of the second blog post from '/blog/second-blog-post' to '/blog/lorem-ipsum-text'. (Hint: replace the
each function in step 4 with
update). After you have updated the URL, try refreshing your browser opened to the blog post whose URL you just changed to see HiFi's automatic 301 redirection in action. Nice work!
Today's customers are demanding complex, interactive features on their sites; HiFi's API pairs perfectly with jQuery giving you the tools you need to deliver awesome, custom client-side features. Your customers will love being able to control their data from HiFi's intuitive user interface. And we think you are going to love the possibilities this API opens up for your work.

Capability Building for Infrastructure Delivery
This project aims to deepen understanding of the capabilities necessary for private and public sector organisations to effectively deliver infrastructure projects that will encourage economic development in sub-Saharan Africa, and support resilient societies.
Infrastructure in sub-Saharan Africa plays a key role in generating economic growth and supporting resilient societies. However, it is difficult to deliver: projects are often contested, are technically, organisationally and managerially complex, and can require large, upfront, illiquid investment.
International investors often demand higher rates of return because of the higher political, currency and project risks involved in developing countries (with soft currencies). Because projects are temporary, often unique, and typically infrequent, the capabilities needed to deliver infrastructure services effectively are difficult to build. This project aims to deepen understanding of:
(1) the capabilities that public and private sector organisations need to effectively deliver infrastructure projects that maximise benefits for local communities and
(2) how such capabilities can be enhanced and shared to reduce risks and costs.
The research is co-produced with local partners to enhance existing peer-to-peer learning networks and create new capability-building collaborations.

Due to the limits of the Apple remote, the only way I can see you doing that is through voice commands, if available.
Unfortunately, there is no way to return to the previous channel on Pik within the Apple TV app. As @NFtoBC mentioned, the limitations of the Apple TV remote are in play here (there's no channel up/down button or number pad), so channel surfing is a little trickier. Voice commands won't work here, either unfortunately. You can swipe down on the Apple TV remote touchpad to bring up the Live Schedule and then swipe left and right to see what else is on now without leaving the program you're watching or navigating to the guide though.

[H] PP vs TT help
To all the professionals out there that's willing to help us noobs out. My buddy and I both use protoss and whenever we go against 2 Terran players, we die early game when they rush with marine/marauders. Now we have both tried all sorts of strategies such as 2 gate rush, 4 gate rush, cannon rush, cannon defend. We even tried our best to build fast stalkers but by then the enemy has mass marines and a few marauders. So my question is how to properly either attack or defend against early marines/marauders. If we are late in the game there is no problem but when they rush we always have a problem.

Updated Bumped Second Attack)
Yup, another one... But it does seem that is Islamic State becomes weaker and more desperate to attack the actual frequency is less than at their peak.Small comfort I know....
t least two people have been killed and several others have been injured after a van crashed on a pavement in a popular tourist area of Barcelona, authorities have said. The vehicle hit pedestrians in Las Ramblas, a busy tree-lined promenade in the centre of the city, the Ministry of the Interior said.

That other incident sounds like not all that much speed was involved compared to this one with 18 killed.
Supposesly there is video footage of the 'racist' only driving and hitting people when his car was surrounded by the neo-commies and they started pounding on his car.

Authoratative sources like some leftclown from the New York Times or the Southern Poverty Law Center is their typical 'source' of discussions (opinions) being talked about ... very incestuous.

Woman Sues Nutella?
With the 21 grams of sugar in a 2 Tbsp serving, Nutella is chocolate sauce. I know this, I still eat it on occasion but it really is a dessert food.
Here is my issue with suing over this:
Nutella clearly states that it can be PART of a nutritious breakfast ALONG with fruits and whole grains. Consumers must be informed. Y0u cannot blame a company if you didn't read the label before filling your 4-year-old full of sugar. Nutella is obviously not peanut butter. If a jar of pb hid 21 grams of sugar in 2 Tbsp, there would probably be an issue (read the label anyhow, even natural brands often contain 4 grams, aka 1 tsp of sugar per serving). Nutella is like a candy bar, this is evident from the flavor, ingredients, and nutrition label. Her friend obviously took the time to look at the numbers. It isn't that hard.
Don't blame a company because you're too lazy to check a label.
3 comments:
Seriously?? This is happening? It's chocolate spread!! (though I'm curious as to how the sugar content thing will go down in court, considering that child-marketed breakfast cereal is often sugary...)ReplyDelete
To an extent the majority of advertising is a little...false. Everyone wants to push the 'benefits' of a product so people buy it. We, as consumers, should also use our own brains though.
So Nutella is not a health food, but that doesn't mean it can't still be incorporated into breakfast (just maybe not as the main food group) ;)
uno what tho, its funny cuz even tho i wouldnt go as far as to SUE, i will say that it has fooled my whole family because watching the commercials it says "with just a teaspoon of cocoa powder, skim milk, and roasted hazelnuts...etc" they never mention the added refined sugar! even my grandma eats it all the time but she shouldnt because her body cant handle the sugar but she still thinks there is no added sugar because "the commercial only mentions those 3 ingredients"!ReplyDelete
definitely we all must be more skeptical and remember false advertising is likely to exist. what an interesting headline tho! i didnt know she actually sued! hopefully she checked herself in for a prescription for eyeglasses lol, jk.
I agree with Kelsey - this seems obvious, it's a chocolate spread! However, I run a fitness center and it's incredible how many young, intelligent, and educated men and women truly believe that Nutella is healthy for them and a great substitute for otherwise unhealthy snacks - because of the advertising. In the commercials they show a kid getting ready for a sports game or practice of some sort and the parents give him Nutella as a healthy breakfast to get ready for all that energy burning!ReplyDelete

Service and Repairs
Turntables are in essence simple, mechanical creations and as such require simple, mechanical up-keep! Springs, grommets, nuts, drive belts and bearing oil – just some of the parts that require replacing periodically and often, bits just need tightening. The performance difference an expert service can make to your deck will astound you.
Every one of our team at Adventures can build a turntable from scratch, and fine-tune it to perfection. But in Phil, we have the best turntable technician in the North and, after 15+ years working on them, a bona fide Linn LP12 genius. He will lovingly check, tweak or restore any deck around whether a legacy product from the likes of Michell, Systemdek, Oracle, Rega et al or a more modern model.
As well as servicing, Adventures repair and rebuild 'under-loved' decks. If your toddler or grandchild has trashed your cartridge or tonearm, worry not, we can fix it.
Record Cleaning
Cleanliness is fundamental to achieving optimum audio quality from vinyl; a clean record will not only sound better, but last longer. But it's not just about improving sound - repeated playing of soiled records can cause permanent damage to the vinyl and accelerates stylus wear.
Dust and debris accumulated over time on a record's surface cause irreparable damage to the vinyl during play.
That's why we offer a comprehensive record cleaning service. Our Audio Desk record cleaning machine ensures a thorough cleanse of each surface, prolonging your vinyl's (and cartridge's) life, and bringing out the best from your cherished collection.
As well as professional cleaning, we have a tried and tested selection of record brushes, stylus cleaners and anti-static sleeves – everything you need at home to keep your vinyl collection in tip top condition.
The cost is £3 per record, which includes a new anti-static sleeve for each.

Professor Rafe Blaufarb (Florida State University) published a new work on the history of property and the French Revolution's impact.
Book abstract:
The Great Demarcation explores how the French Revolution transformed the system of property-holding that had existed in France before 1789, thus creating the framework for modern definitions of property and political forms. This book examines the Revolution not from an economic or social perspective, but through the lens of the laws and institutions of property. The Revolution's dramatic legal restructuring aimed at two fundamental goals: removing formal public power from the sphere of private property, and excising property rights from the realm of the new sovereign, the nation. The revolutionaries accomplished these two aims by abolishing privately-owned forms of public power—such as jurisdictional lordship and venal public office—and by dismantling the Crown domain to construct a purely sovereign State.
Table of contents:
These efforts brought about a Great Demarcation: a radical distinction between property and power from which flowed critical distinctions between the political and the social, state and society, sovereignty and ownership, the public and private. These distinctions destroyed the conceptual basis of the Old Regime, laid the foundation of France's new constitutional order, and crystallized modern ways of thinking about polities and societies. This, Blaufarb claims, was the Revolution's fundamental act, the stake in the Old Regime's heart, and the basis of all of its other reforms.
Tracing how the French Revolution sought to remake the country's legal and institutional reality, The Great Demarcation shows how the revolutionary transformation of Old Regime property helped to inaugurate political modernity.

I arrived at Bamford at 12 noon, and found my first footpath down a lane, then turn left between a big old mill and some modern houses. This is what I found, magic. A pond with ducks, water tumbling over the weir and over the stones, and a footpath through it made of rocks and wooden boards. I lingered a while listening to the rush of the water and enjoying the sun, a great start to my walk. I carried on over the wooden bridge and into a field.
All the signposts were very well marked, I decided to follow the Derwent Valley Heritage Way a short distance past Yorkshire Bridge, to the dam at the bottom of the Ladybower Reservoir. My plan was to walk the route anti clockwise along the waters edge for a while, then turn left through the forest, climb the hill out the other side and return via Win Hill, and the village of Thornhill.
As I stopped for a few minutes at Yorkshire Bridge, dark clouds blew overhead and decided to release a few hundred gallons of water, I dived for cover underneath some large trees. I don't like to be laden with a heavy backpack on a day out so I just take the bare essentials, food, drink, camera, phone, shorts to wear if hot, sweatshirt to put on if cold. I wouldn't go out walking if there was going to be continual downpours, the odd shower here and there is not a problem, I just find some shelter. If I get wet, so be it, it's only water.
Then I turned round and took a photo looking to the north over the water.
Looking the other way towards Castleton and Hope. It was very windy, nearly got blown off. I feel like I am on the top of the world :-)
It was downhill all the way now. A couple more photo's before I reach the bottom.

Food the Leveller…
By Dr R Neerunjun Gopee
'Mo ti pique mo la langue!', proudly told me this lanky 9-year old, who resembled his father Rukesh. As he was introduced to me by the latter at the entrance to their house in Valetta on Tuesday last I noticed that his hands, feet and part of the face were still coloured fuchsia. He had taken part in the Cavadee procession, and preparations had been under way until the early hours of the morning on that day. Nevertheless, he looked quite fresh all the same. These days it seems to me that youths never tire!
I had been invited by Rukesh who works as a driver, and it was with Yogesh – a colleague of his – and the latter's family that we drove to our dinner appointment with sept carris on Tuesday evening. It was an encore, because already during the day I had feasted on similar fare for lunch at my brother's place, complete with aplon and sagoo which I can never have enough of – but what to do, have to stop at some stage!
I had felt honoured to be invited. I always make it a point to be present when I receive such invitations, because they are done without any selfish motives and are always accompanied with much respect, esteem and genuine affection. All distinctions of social level melt away as one mixes with the host's family and friends gathered to share a hot meal in an atmosphere of joyous accomplishment, but peppered with running anecdotes in light vein about the happenings that took place before, during and after the walk till the kovil in the arduous heat of the sun. Another doctor friend was also present, and as the guests kept coming and others left the table to sit down for a while and chit-chat, I came across several new acquaintances belonging to this modest neighbourhood.
Here was a retired school teacher; there was a furniture maker, who lived opposite Rukesh's house; over there was so-and-so … and so on. Everybody appreciated the tasty meal of plain rice, daal with brinjal, dry masala potatoes, spicy banana, giraumon, curried French beans, rasson and topped up with mango kucha, pickled chilly mix and pickled carambole, ending again with aplon and sagoo this time slightly more liquid but as tasty as the morning's.
Amidst all this, tending to his guests and serving them, Rukesh found a few minutes to show me around his garden, where he grew a variety of vegetables of daily usage. He also had a fairly extensive bed of flowers, marigold amongst others, and he promised to give me some saplings. I recalled my days as a child walking about, and also working fairly regularly, in our garden which was the pride and doing of my dada. We grew practically all the vegetables we needed, but there were also fruit trees – cherry, different types of guava, peach, bibasse amongst others – as well as medicinal plants.
In those times almost everybody who had garden space would invariably grow patte-poule, la verveine, apana, feuille chandelle, camomille plants which each had its specific use – and were the first resort for common ailments, and only afterwards would a doctor be consulted. A medical home visit then was Rs 5 – but was still outside the reach of quite a few people.
The HSC results had been out on Monday, and I was introduced to a number of kids who had gone to collect theirs. The talk was about how many A's so-and-so had obtained; one young lady decided she would repeat to improve her grades; another one was planning to pursue finance studies; this young lad sitting next to me was in Form IV at the RCC, his proud father told me, and mo pe suivre li bien he added – and so on it went, as I learnt about these young things whose lives were being transformed by education, another great leveller.
Doing the HSC was taken for granted. It was not like before, when going on to pursue HSC was considered to be an elite thing, and mostly it was the town people who took the exam. How things have changed! And of course that's definitely for the better: free education has been a true success story of Mauritius, as well as free health, two fundamental pillars of the development of a nation.
It was sheer pleasure to listen to these youngsters discussing their results and future plans with a manifest confidence. With the support of parents and family they were looking ahead with optimism. They were well-behaved, serious, focused and clear-headed. I felt happy to meet and talk with them in their setting, a humble background that kept them rooted to their culture and tradition, and yet totally comfortable with the trappings of modernity (the ubiquitous mobile phone!).
The languages I heard and exchanged conversation in were Bhojpuri, Creole, French. As I have had occasion to remark in the past, plus Mauricien que ça tu meurs! And I am always amused at all these 'intellectual' discussions about le mauricianisme whose definition continues to elude those who are trying to capture that will-o'-the-wisp and which those who are living it in their daily lives could not care less about!
Ah! Mauritius, and our veneer of intellectual profundity!
Thank goodness for such occasions as Cavadee and haldi – safran – where food becomes a true leveller. There is not a single Mauritian whom I know who doesn't look forward to relishing ti puris during a haldi, eating it with the variety of preparations of vegetables not unlike those that are served during Cavadee, although the recipes are slightly different – but as yummy, and finger-lickin' good! That's what the KFC advert says about its core product, chicken, and it is true that all Mauritians also now enjoy a varied range of different cuisines.
Unfortunately the later additions to the local scene have been mainly in the form of fast foods that medicine has found are no good for health. The only thing one can commend is that at least there is no barrier now as regards both availability and access to food. This is one democratization that is not at all good from a health perspective, but habits and trends are very difficult to change – and they are flattening the world, albeit negatively in this case.
However, at the other end of the spectrum, there is also a certain snobbery associated with food. I thought of this when I happened to switch on to a programme on Indian TV a few days ago. There was the rotund chef – I have never figured out why they wear that puffed-up hat that makes them look like circus clowns! – demonstrating what appeared to me to be the too elaborate preparation of a salad. The lady presentator was all agog about the 'international' aspect of this gastronomic exotica, the bland and amorphous lump of mozzarella included, that would be laid out for palates wishing to be phoren-tickled, at a price of course – but at home, in Gurgaon's Westin Hotel.
Many a time during our walks in the woods with like-minded friends, very down to earth, we have joked about the pricey special menus that are vaunted about by restaurants and hotels at the approach of the end of the year festive season or other special occasions, St Valentine for example. As one goes up the social scale, the richer – both in price and in calories – one's food tends to become, with bizarre sounding names of recipes from afar, as the proportion of non-vegetarian items and fatty stuff in the plate rises.
Manze bon zaffaire, especially around the New Year period, has come to mean a lot of meat and stuff of that sort. And it is very common to hear afterwards ayo ine plein are tout sa la, bien bisin ene bon bouillon! And action follows words: a few days into January I was behind an acquaintance at the supermarket, and as he turned and saw me, he gave me a conspiratorial wink as he pointed to the two packets of brede chouchou he was carrying. It was mid-morning, and he was clearly in need of ridding himself of a hangover!
Once I was in India, and my Indian hostess proposed that we go and have pizza at the new Domino outlet that had opened in a posh locality of New Delhi. You're crazy! I shot at her, I did not come to India to eat pizza damn it! Nor club sandwich or whatever was equivalent to making a social statement. I would gladly settle down to a steaming thali at Sagar's or a chhole-batura at Embassy's, the best ever that one can have in the Indian capital. I have read that the recipe for the chhole is a family secret that dates back to the opening of the restaurant in Connaught Place before the second world war, and it has stood the test of time to remain a favourite of those who like me never fail to make sure that I keep my appointment there whenever I am in Delhi.
Bottomline is that every culture has simple, time tested recipes from the home kitchen with Mother's or Grandma's touch that its people enjoy and that at the same time bring them together in a spirit of sharing and remembering. We are lucky in Mauritius that the cuisines of so many cultures have blended to result in a Mauritian mix which appeals to all irrespectively. From baguette to bouillon, to biryani, gratin, curry, bok choy and canard laqué – the list is endless of goodies that are both healthy and tasty. We could ask for no better!

Keeping Inventory for Your Home Party Plan Business
Network marketing companies generally do not require consultants to keep any inventory on hand, beyond what is in your sample kit. The company fills the orders for you and sends their products to you for delivery, or some will ship the order directly to the customers.
Some consultants do keep a small inventory on hand for instant sales. Depending on the type of products you sell, consider keeping a few of your best selling products on hand, and keep them handy (such as in the trunk of your car). If someone shows interest in something particular, be sure to mention you have one for sale in your car, and it will save her on shipping.
There are also other occassions where you will want to keep extra inventory on hand. If you are doing a trade show or a craft show you will want products on hand for instant sales. Same with participating in a fund raiser, or any other event where there is the potential for someone to say they would like to purchase a particular product right then and there.
Before you go ahead and order what could end up being excessive amounts of product, find out what the return policy of your company is. Some encourage their consultants to keep inventory onhand, and have a very flexible return policy. Others are much more strict on returns, so be sure you know what your company's mindset is on this issue before you end up ordering plenty of product you end up not being able to sell before it is outdated or out of style.
Be sure to print our handy Inventory Tracker Worksheet to keep track of your available inventory.

April 9, 2020 - Latest: What has happened to markets this year? by Darius McDermott
6th April 2014
1. On the the Telegraph, Jeremy Warner defends Vince Cable over the Royal Mail float. But he suggests the price may be too high now. Worth a read if you are holding on to those shares.
2. On Citywire, Editor-in-chief Gavin Lumsden suggests investors may be misled if Invesco Perpetual doesn't change the name of its income and high income funds now they look set not to be in the income sector.
3. Invesco Perpetual may have more on its plate. St James's Place has switched most of its contracted fund mandates away from Mark Barnett and management of much of the money to Neil Woodford. Even the national newspapers are interested as the Guardian reports on the story.
4. The Wall Street Journal suggests investors' funds are finally returning to emerging markets.
5. BP will this week have to explain to shareholders how its 20% stake in Rosneft may be affected by the crisis in Ukraine as the Guardian reports.

Last weekend for outdoor pools
The summer outdoor pool season is drawing to a close, with lifeguards putting their whistles away on Monday 11 March.
In recent years, Council has extended the season beyond the traditional Labour Day long weekend closing. However, the extended weather forecast has predicted cooler temperatures which means it isn't viable to keep them open.
Mitchell Shire Mayor Councillor Bill Chisholm said the season had been a great one with a number of very hot days and plenty of events on offer.
"We have had everything from pop-up dive in cinemas to youth parties this summer, with lots of smiling faces enjoying our outdoor facilities. It was great to see so many people take advantage of these great community assets and come together for some summer fun," he said.
"Thank you to everyone who attended the pools this summer. We hope you had as much fun as we did. We can't wait to do it again later this year. It has been a bumper season and we thank all the lifeguards and operational staff who did an exceptional job of keeping us safe.
"We'd like to thank all those who used the outdoor pools this summer. It shows a great community spirit and plenty of people are taking to the outdoor pools which shows just how much of an important investment they are."
There were more than 17,500 visits to the outdoor pools this summer at Broadford Outdoor Pool, Tallarook Outdoor Pool and Seymour War Memorial Outdoor Pool.
The Community Bank® Adventure Playground Splashpark and indoor pools will remain open.

There has been a lot of misinformation in the news lately about how expensive government is and in particular how the private sector can do it for less. This is just a smokescreen put forth to let the private sector undermine wages, working conditions and unions, not just in the government sector but in the private sector as well.
The most common method of transferring government functions or assets to the private sector is through contracting out agreements. However, there are several other methods, including vouchers, grants, franchises, deregulation, volunteerism, service shedding, public/private partnerships, asset sales and private donations.
Contracting out may have some short-term cost benefit because of low salaries, lack of benefits, and creative accounting tactics used by the private sector. But eventually, after the government body lays off permanent employees and liquidates solid assets, the costs rise. Further, because public input has been eliminated and workers are underpaid, the quality of services gradually declines.
In the crosshairs
California government services currently targeted for privatization include mental health, general services, administrative, schools, printing, social services, health care, transportation and corrections.
Major concerns about privatization include not only increased costs, decline in the quality of services and lack of public input, but also discrimination based on age, race and gender, payoffs, kickbacks, conflict of interest, price fixing, collusive bidding, and other forms of corruption. All these problems existed before the civil service was established and will slowly sneak back into government. In addition, the isolation of the disadvantaged will increase.
Illegal contracts
Government Code section 19130(b) allows the state of California to contract out jobs to the private sector under certain conditions. Areas where contracting out is allowed include state functions exempt from civil service under the state constitution; services not available through the civil service system; new state functions mandated by the legislature; incidental, temporary, urgent or occasional services; and training services which cannot be performed by the state. Union representatives have discovered during contract negotiations that management is checking inappropriate boxes to avoid being detected in illegal contracting out of state jobs.
What can we expect?
If public sector jobs are privatized, what can we expect? We know that the private sector is also contracting out jobs, but that is only the tip of the iceberg. There is an all-out attack on the working people of this country, as corporations are not only trying to compete in the global market but continue to increase their profits.
For example, Kmart laid off older employees in order to avoid paying retirement benefits. Walmart hired part-time employees who were not needed, then fired full-time employees to avoid paying benefits and higher wages. They still provide no health care package. Target bought out a union store and eliminated the union employees so they could pay lower wages. Bank of America, Ross Dress-for-Less, Burger King and others hire part-time employees in order to avoid providing benefits for their employees. We are witnessing the complete collapse of job security in this country.
The fact is, if you work for a living in America, you are outproducing other workers around the world, but you are being paid less in dollars adjusted for inflation than you were twenty years ago. In many cases, you are being paid less in actual dollars.
You need to rethink what is happening to your life and the lives of your parents and children. Your parents may be living below the poverty line and your children may see a return to the sweat shop conditions of past generations.

Hundreds attend Belfast City Hall Armistice Day ceremony
Up to 1,000 have people have gathered in Belfast to remember the war dead on Armistice Day.
A two-minute silence was held during a short ceremony at the Garden of Remembrance in the grounds of the City Hall.
DUP Lord Mayor Brian Kingston and Sinn Fein Deputy Lord Mayor Mary Ellen Campbell were among those who took part in the low-key event.
Mr Kingston described the turnout as impressive.
He said: "It just shows that people do have that appreciation and to show their recognition of all who served in two world wars and subsequent conflicts, and in particular those who made the ultimate sacrifice in upholding the freedom and democracies that we enjoy today.
"I was very impressed by the turnout that we had for the simple ceremony."
Northern Ireland Office Minister Kris Hopkins and SDLP councillor Tim Attwood were also among the crowd, which included military veterans and their families.
Similar ceremonies were held across the north, with First Minister Arlene Foster among those who paused to reflect at the war memorial in Enniskillen.
In 2013, Sinn Fein's Mairtin O Muilleoir made history as the first republican Lord Mayor to participate in an Armistice Day event at the Belfast cenotaph.
Previously, November's remembrance events were boycotted due to the association with the British military.

Belting Out A-FIat in Double Time
The belt sander B JH ost woodworkers consider sanding a aggressively removes llf I chore, and rank it right up there with nicks and scratches IW1 taking out the garbage, which —in a and flattens stock sense—it is. It's taking out the scratches, nicks, quickly, and milling marks left by various tools. Well, portable belt sanders can help with this nasty job. They remove stock quickly, clean up rough surfaces, and flatten glued-up tablctops and panel assemblies. Though they can't beat hand planes when it comes to perfectly flattening stock, belt sanders will smooth woods with wavy, interlocking, troublesome figure without tearing out the grain. In skilled hands, they're capable of finer work too, although belt-sanded surfaces usually require additional smoothing (with an orbital or random-orbit sander) before finish is applied.
In addition to flattening large work, some belt sanders can be mounted upside down or verticallv on the bench to serve as stationary
sanders for shaping and smoothing small parts.
To remove wood, belt sanders use a continuous abrasive belt which is held in tension around two rollers. A universal (brush-type) motor drives the rear roller and thus the belt. A flat platen between the two rollers serves as a backing plate for the belt where it contacts the workpicce, helping the belt sander produce flat surfaces. The spring-loaded, freewheeling front roller retracts for changing belts.
A tracking mechanism, usually operated by a knob on the side of the sander, adjusts the angle of the front roller to keep the belt centered on the rollers and platen. Several lightweight consumer models from Black & Decker. Skil, and Sears have an automatic tracking system that requires no user adjustment. On heavier models, though, the belts are under t(X> much tension to make these devices efficient.
Size, Speed and Efficiency
A bell sander s size is determined by the width and length of its belt. The most common sizes are 3x21 in., 3 x 24 in., and 4 x 24 in. Smaller sanders generally don't remove stock as aggressively as larger models—but they're lighter, easier to handle, and generally less expensive. 'l"hc smaller belts also cost less. Larger models are more useful if you do a lot of panel-sanding and flattening of wide, glued-up assemblies. The sanding efficiency of any model, however, really depends on lour factors: bell speed, motor power, weight, and platen size.
Belt speed is measured in surface feet per minute (sfpm) and affects how fast the sander removes stock. Variable speed control allows you to slow down the belt for better control when sanding plywood and other veneered
Sitting up at the table. Some models, like the DeWalt machine shown here, have inversion stands that let you mount the sander horizontally or vertically on your bench.

This popular dish consists of braised beef covered with a thick, creamy sauce of parsley root and carrots. It's usually served with a side of cranberry sauce and whipped cream.
Perhaps the most traditional Czech dish you can ask for at a restaurant, Vepřo knedlo zelo is basically roasted pork served with dumplings and a side of pickled cabbage.
While schnitzels aren't exclusively Czech, Řízek are unique in that they can be made using a number of different meats, covered in both flour and breadcrumbs before frying and served with a side of potato salad. Pork schnitzels are particularly popular in Czechia, but there's also a trout schnitzel commonly served during Christmastime.
The Czech version of meatloaf is made combining half pork and half beef mince and then adding slices of bacon, onions, and garlic and a number of specific herbs, including marjoram and parsley.
A garlic-heavy soup served with croutons, Česnečka also contains a raw egg, which is added near the end of the cooking process and left alone to cook in the heat of the soup. Small pieces of sausage, pork, or cheese is sometimes added to it as well.
Uzené technically means just smoked but the dish is always made with meat, usually pork. Juniper berries and peppers are often used as a side dish.
A pork stew (although beef or game is sometimes used) with lots of onions, Guláš is usually served with bread dumplings or slices of dark bread. A common meal during winter, it's also one of the simplest, cheapest Czech dishes you can try at a traditional restaurant.
Technically, this is beef on any type of tomato sauce/soup, although soup is the usual liquid of choice. The soup is often made using a mix of chopped tomatoes and tomato paste, to which already cooked beef, onions and a number of spices are added.
Don't let the name scare you – this is actually a popular pork dish. Served with sides of sauerkraut and dumplings, Moravský vrabec is a rich, heavy dish often served with a glass of cold beer.
Don't let the name confuse you. This is just a meat patty (not an actual full burger with bread and toppings), made with minced pork, fish, or sometimes beef. Once shaped into a patty, it's often covered with breadcrumbs and fried.

We have spent two weeks in Hyannis for 13 years, so we know what we are looking for in a rental home. This year, we needed a new place. Gladys and Tim's home fit the bill! It was fairly priced, clean and well equipped. The central air was really appreciated.The location was convenient and quiet; a quick drive to beaches, the grocery store and Main Street with restaurants and shops. One had the option of requesting the Landlord's beach pass, which is well worth it. Gladys and Tim were very accommodating and super quick to respond to any questions we had. If we visit Hyannis again, we would return to this property. show more show less
My adult children and I rented this property in July, and the owners couldn't have been nicer, or thought of anything else the house needed. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking, grilling and baking. The bathroom was updated, and larger than the ones you find at most cottages. The shower/tub combo was new and my favorite part! There was plenty of water pressure for a great shower, and it had a shelf long enough for everyone's shampoos and soaps. The central air worked well, thankfully, because it was hot and humid for part of our stay. The home was decorated perfectly for the Cape, but it's time for a new sofa. The cushions have no oomph left to their stuffing, and your bottom sinks way down when you sit - making it uncomfortable and hard to get off of. One thing I must mention is that the top step up into the house is very high, and there is nothing to hold onto or pull yourself up by, so if someone in your party has mobility issues, this might not be the place for you. (both doors had the same high top step). I think this could easily be corrected by putting a grab bar/handle on the door jam between the storm door and the house door.This is a great house, in a great location. It's close to the beaches and stores. It was a great find for us! show more show less
Thanks for your feedback, we agree on comments regarding sofa and have been in process of replacing it this year. This is the first we heard about the high step being a constraint. We are looking into a solution now. We are glad the rest of the house met your expectations. It should be noted that relatives of renter had pre-inspected the house a month before the rental and they thought it was perfect. Thank you again for constructive feedback.
We had an amazing weekend. The house had "everything" that I needed. Gladys is an excellent hostess and very easy to work with. I definitely recommend this lovely house. Look forward to come back again. Thank you, Gladys & Tim.
Thanks, Tim and Gladys, for renting to us again this year! The house was neat and clean with everything we needed. The beds were comfortable. The house is within walking distance for shopping and eating as well as a quick ride to the marina and downtown shopping. The beach pass is a great bonus as well as the central air on those muggy nights. We would def rent here again.
We very much enjoyed our stay. The home was as described including very clean. Furniture and decor was nice, very Cape Cod feel. Beds were comfortable. All basic amenities were provided. Location is very convenient to beaches and downtown Hyannis. Gladys was very easy to work with. I look forward to staying here again.
We are very pleased with our stay in this house. No complaints, everything was perfect. Moreover, the little touches in the basket when we arrived were very much appreciated. Providing a beach pass is a great idea.. We have no hesitation in recommending this property.
Gladys and TimThank you for the use of your home. My family and I had a wonderful time. The house was wonderful. The house was neat and clean when we arrived, and we had no issues throughout the week. The beach pass was nice. We could try different beaches and not have to worry and some of them were so close by. We loved the fact that we were so close to everything from downtown to the convention center where our daughter's dance competition was. Having a backyard for the kids to play in and the deck to sit out on was nice. It was a very peaceful and relaxing week. Once again thank you. The Jorczak Family show more show less
This house had everything we needed for a wonderful vacation. It was very roomy, neat and clean. The central air was a nice bonus for a few muggy days. It was very close to the beaches and the downtown shopping area. We had a great time and would love to return!
We greatly enjoyed our stay here last year. The home is lovely and very comfortable for our family. The deck and grill in the back yard is a plus. The beach down the road is a bonus. We are absolutely staying here again!!
Hi Tim and Gladys, We enjoyed our stay at your home. The house was comfortable and nicely equipped. It was convenient and its proximity to Craigville Beach was great!
