text: Last updated: 07 December 2018 Reduce your carbon footprint Carbon dioxide is one of the greenhouse gases warming the planet. The amount of carbon dioxide produced by the energy we use is called our carbon footprint. On average, each person in the UK is responsible for approximately 10 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions every year, with just over half of this amount a result of personal travel and household energy needs. Measure it Use an online carbon calculator such as the Act on CO2 calculator which has been set up by the UK Government to provide you with a measure of your carbon footprint and an action plan to reduce it. Reduce it There are a number of simple measures to reduce your carbon footprint in the way you travel, use energy, manage your waste and use water. Energy efficiency turn off all appliances and lights when not in use, and do not leave appliances on standby use energy saving light bulbs, fewer bulbs and maximise natural lighting wash your clothes at 30C or lower ensure the appliances you use have the highest energy-efficiency ratings and that they are properly maintained and repaired turn down unnecessary heating and air-conditioning systems, use automatic time-controlled thermostats and wear more layers of clothes use natural ventilation - open windows to cool buildings rather than air-conditioning or fans install insulation for walls, floors, loftspace, roofing, boilers, pipework and windows (including replacing single-glazing with double-glazing) unplug your mobile telephone charger when not in use ensure refrigerators and freezers are set for optimal energy efficiency by making sure they are not next to the cooker or boiler and are on the correct cooling setting switch to an energy supplier which uses renewable sources such as solar, wind and wave energy invest in your own energy systems (eg solar panels and mini-wind turbines) Water repair all dripping taps and leaks immediately do not overfill kettles (ie only boil the amount of water you need) use spray taps to reduce water wastage On the move walk, cycle or use public transport rather than using your own car when you have to travel by car, ensure you are as energy-efficient as possible (reduce your speed, accelerate slowly, turn down air conditioning, share your journey with others, and keep your car well maintained) avoid all short car journeys travel by train where possible explore alternatives to flying use tele- and videoconferencing instead of travelling to meetings where possible.

Jonathan Cohen and his ensemble Arcangelo will make their BBC Proms debut on Saturday 13 August. We asked Jonathan how he felt about his first appearance at the festival…
"We're thrilled to be making our proms debut this year at the gorgeous and intimate Sam Wanamaker playhouse at the Globe Theatre. The BBC Proms is Britain's most celebrated and spirited music festival and it's a real joy for myself and Arcangelo to play here.
The ingenious choice of venue [the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse at the Globe Theatre] is perfectly suited for the incidental music from Purcell and Locke inspired by Shakespeare themes, namely 'The Fairy Queen' and 'The Tempest' as well as other delights. I'm glad to present three fantastic young British singers to play varied dramatic roles in this concert – the soprano Katherine Watson, tenor Sam Boden and bass Callum Thorpe – and I'm very happy to receive the guidance of director Alessandro Talevi who will create a 'mise en espace' for us."
Jonathan Cohen directs Arcangelo in a programme of early vocal music inspired by the works of Shakespeare, as part of the 'Proms at…' series on Saturday 13 August 2016. Performances take place at 3pm and 8pm at the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse.
Discover which other Askonas Holt artists are making their BBC Proms debut here.

Dining al fresco on your deck is one of the great joys of summer. You can enjoy the great food and drink while taking in the scenery around your yard. If you'd like to enhance your experience, here are some things to consider:
1) Raise your dining area. More and more homeowners are defining their deck space the way they do family rooms or living/dining rooms inside. Elevating a portion to your deck or adding on a section designed specifically for your table and chairs is a great way of doing this.
2) Find the right spot for your grill. The closer your grill is to the kitchen, the easier and more enjoyable your grilling experience will be. At the same time having your grill right next to the house is a fire hazard, and you should observe prevailing wind currents around your deck to avoid smoke blowing into the house. Experiment with different spots to find the optimal place for your grill.
3) Fuel your grill. Once you've found the perfect spot for the grill, you can look into running a natural gas or propane line directly to it. This can save you the hassle of lighting charcoal or refilling propane tanks. There's nothing worse than an empty tank when your friends are over.
If these ideas sound good but your deck needs some work to make them happen, contact us for help adding to your deck or running a fuel line. We'll put our expertise to work in designing and building the deck of your dreams

Enjoying the cool of the morning on my friends' porch in Ohio. Coffee, internet, BuJo, until the sun clears the tree and chases me into the shade or into productivity. Birds are singing, solar panel's charging my house battery, flowers are in bloom, life is good.
MY BLOG IS BACK. I wrote about my full-time RV life, my time-travel excursions to other centuries, and whatever else came to hand, for a decade. Took 2017 off from blogging completely. OK, vacation's over. New crafts. New states colored in on the map. Retired. Sold the big motorhome. Traveling light and lean (for me ;) ) in a minivan. Still changing yards regularly. So hello - listen to some music, read some adventures. ~ Gypsy Jane

ast night, June 9th, 2016 at AMC Loews located on 34th street,team SFPL attended a special advanced screening of action/adventure film WARCRAFT hosted by The Breakfast Club's very own Angela Yee.
Oh by the way if you want a close look at Angela's Charlotte Olympia "Zena" shoes, don't worry ladies we got you cause they are indeed FLY.
After the film, guests were told to remain in their seats because something special was indeed was going to happen. Angela Yee introduced Paula Patton who plays Garona in the film, a half-human, half-orc whom is very popular in the video game and plays a pivotal role in the WARCRAFT universe.
Paula was very excited to talk to the attendees and eager to know if they enjoyed the film and her performance. Much to her delight many of the guests who were all fans of the video game gave her their seal of approval.
You can tell she put her all into this project and to hear the approval of her performance after seeing the final product meant the world to her.
Stay tuned for our review of WARCRAFT which is in theaters tomorrow!
Peep the rest of the photos from the night below:

The Concept
We've been wanting to offer this for ages but have only just found a good supplier – your collective set of images get set into a large mosaic to make up a single image of your choice. It's really very clever!
Again, transfer the full set of images across to us and tell us which is the main image. We'll set it up so that all your images are there, but overlaid with the main image you've chosen. They look super-smart and are seriously impressive!
As with the collages above, we can either print the image a poster-sized photo, have it framed separately, or simply send you the high-resolution digital file… We think they would look best on the wall though!
Delivery for the finished mosaic will be as for the collage – courier for the print (framed or not), or via digital transfer if you just want the file.
Remember though – we're here to stop the digital dust… Wall hangings always look awesome!
We're sure you have lots of questions, so read the FAQs below and if you have any others, get in touch through the contact page or email – email@example.com
How it works
1 - Pick
2 - Pay
3 - Upload
4 - Change Draft
5 - Approve
6 - Receive & Enjoy
What do the pages look like?
The images are printed directly on the paper (rather than stuck in!) and there is no break in the centre for the spine. This means that one images can span facing pages with a full bleed (right to the edge).
Each page will be different and this is where the skill lies – we have a full-time professional design team making your images look as good as possible, saving you the job!
How do I transfer photos to you?
Within 24 hours of paying for your album, you will receive a link via email to a secure gallery. You will then be able to upload high resolution images from any device at any time to that gallery, and we will be able to download from there as well.
How do I view the design?
Once the first draft of the album is finished, it will be uploaded to an online reviewing system. You will be able to update/comment on/draft the design at that point, and those changes will automatically come back into our design team's software.
They will then revise and re-upload and this process will continue until you are happy. This is quite a collaborative process!
Once you hit 'APPROVE', the album will be sent for production and you will receive it about 10 days later.
How many photos am I allowed?
This will be governed by how many pages and what size of album you choose.
There is no limit per se, but bear in mind that the more you upload, the smaller each photo will be in the album as we will have to fit more in.
If you really do upload too many, we will be in touch to let you know.
Can I get duplicate copies of my album?
Of course!
Let us know how many copies of the album you want and we'll see if we can offer a discount on the duplicates… We usually can!
We are also able to produce miniature/downscaled versions as well should you want a primary album and the some secondary versions, for guests or similar for instance.
How is the cover designed?
The cover options will be chosen at checkout. That includes a choice of 20 different colours of leather and the wording for the title that is etched into the cover.
Is shipping included?
All UK shipping is free. Delivery costs to Europe and the RotW are on order by order basis.
Can you help me if I'm struggling to upload photos?
We've tried to make it as simple as possible to upload photos and in time, we hope to make it even simpler in time…
However, if at any point you get stuck uploading photos, please just ping us – firstname.lastname@example.com – and we'll do everything we can to streamline it for you. ?
Can I change my photos?
Once the design process has started, then no, that will not be possible. It is suggested that you are quite careful with your initial image selection before you upload them to the gallery.
What's your cancellation and refund policy?
You will have 14 days to cancel your initial purchase and you will receive a full refund.
We will also reserve the right to terminate the purchase with no refund if, after sufficient warning, you have failed to upload, change or or approve the album design.
Are you able to edit the photos first?
Absolutely but there is an additional charge for that; get in touch and we can give you a quote.
Once they are edited, then we can roll straight into the album design process.

BUTTE, Mont. — A Montana priest has his puppy back after law enforcement officers and an animal control officer pulled the shaking animal from the inside of a 30-foot drain pipe that runs under part of the church.
The Montana Standard reports (http://bit.ly/1DtMATT) the small black-and-brown animal couldn't be found after Sunday Mass in Butte. The Rev. Patrick Beretta said he initially suspected puppy-nappers had taken the 8-week-old mastiff.
Officers Patrick Fleming and Callie Daly looked for a potential dog thief but suspected the animal hadn't gone far.
They returned to the church and shined a flashlight into the pipe, spotting the puppy.
An animal control officer used a catch pole to nudge the dog within Fleming's reach so the officer could pull her to safety.
This story has been corrected to show the puppy is a mastiff.

Nvidia has just announced that for the second year in a row, the Tsubame 2.0 system powered by Nvidia Tesla GPUs has become the most energy efficient petaflop-class supercomputer in the world according to the TOP500 list.
Tsubame 2.0 is a heterogeneous supercomputer (combining both CPUs and GPUs) used to accelerate a range of scientific and industrial research in Japan.
This is installed at Tokyo Institute of Technology's Global Scientific Information Center (GSIC) and went live in 2010.
According to Nvidia, the supercomputer has a sustained performance of 1.19 petaflops per second while consuming 1.2 megawatts of power, which after a simple calculation reveals that it can deliver 958 megaflops of processing power per watt of energy.
This makes it 3.4-times more energy efficient than its closes rival, the Cray built Cielo supercomputer installed at the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), which delivers 278 megaflops per watt.
The Tsubame 2.0 is comprised of HP ProLiant SL390 servers with 1,400 compute nodes based on Intel's six-core Xeon 5600-series CPUs accelerated by no less than 4,200 Nvidia Tesla M2050 GPUs. These Nvidia Tesla accelerators deliver more than 80 percent of the supercomputer's performance.
The Nvidia-powered Tsubame 2.0 supercomputer isn't the only system to retain its position in this newest edition of the TOP500 list as the Japanese "K Computer" also managed to hang on to its number one spot in this list, a first for the TOP500 organization.
The supercomputer has just recently reached its final configuration which is comprised of 864 racks including a total of 88,128 interconnected CPUs making it able to deliver 10.51 petaflops in the LINPACK benchmark used for calculating the power of HPC systems.
The Japanese-built K Computer is actually so powerful that its performance is four times greater than that of its nearest competitor, and about nine times more powerful than the Tsubame 2.0.

Good news, everyone! Dell finally got around to delivering my laptop around noon today. Wonders would never cease as they delivered the correct item. People around me (like Gj and other office colleagues) were more happy about the delivery than I was. I was mostly just relieved that it's finally been delivered. You could say the long wait and all the problems with the billing and delivery has dampened my enthusiasm for it.
Now that I've installed some software in it and has customised most settings, my happiness about the purchase is starting to return. That does not mean to say though that I would buy another product from Dell in a hurry. The experience has been certainly been traumatic and it's not over yet. There's still the remainder of my refund to think about but it's not that much of a biggie in the grand scheme of things.
I've also submitted the online survey they sent me. The questionnaire was predominantly focused on the performance of the sales rep. (I gave her good marks as she was quite helpful during the whole ordeal) but there was one question regarding the overall experience. I certainly told them about the billing and delivery woes I had to endure! There was also a question regarding the likelihood of me being a repeat customer. Hands up to "highly unlikely".
Still, I have no complaints on the machine itself. It looks good and performs well. Touch wood…

It was created in 1918 by James Montgomery Flagg, a professional graphic artist (they called them "illustrators" back then), who volunteered his time and talent during WWI. Mr. Flagg created many other posters, cards and such, including the famous Uncle Sam, "I Want You" poster. (If you're interested, you can learn more about all of this at http://www.nationalheritagemuseum.org/.)
Now, about those herbs...
If you have been thinking lately about creating your own "Victory Garden", or maybe even just keeping those herbs you occasionally buy at the grocery store thriving for more than a week or two, then you will love the article just sent to us by rismedia.com (see below). Feel free to pass this along to anyone else who might enjoy it as well!
RISMEDIA, July 7, 2009-(MCT)-Chefs know it. The Food Network preaches it. Amateur cooks admit it: Freshly picked herbs are more delicious than anything you'll find on a spice rack.
So why not try growing your own herb garden?
Many herbs can be maintained throughout the summer with minimal effort. And according to Michigan State University Extension horticulture educator Mary Wilson, the payoffs go beyond your pocketbook.
"It's fun," Wilson said. "You can go right out and harvest them, so you don't have to go to a grocery store when you need something."
Here's a crash course.
1. Decide where to plant. "Incorporate herbs into a vegetable garden," Wilson said, "or put them in with your flowers, and you can almost have an edible landscape." Pick a well-drained area where water doesn't pool.
The most forgiving route is to use containers. Wilson recommends any well-draining container (make sure it has holes on the bottom) that is safe for growing food. You can use small pots for individual herbs, or plant several together in a 16- to 18-inch container. Even a window box works.
2. Consider the sunlight. Herbs like a good deal of sun.
3. Pick your herbs based on what you use. Keep in mind which are perennials and which are annuals. Perennials include chives, marjoram, mint, and thyme. Parsley is biennial, meaning it comes back the second year with blooms. Wilson cautions that some perennials, such as rosemary, sometimes don't make it through the winter.
4. Start with seeds or pick up plants at a farmers market. Search around, and you can find chocolate or lemon thyme, spearmint, cinnamon or Thai basil.
5. If using containers, plant in potting soil. And skip the fertilizer; it can dim the taste, Wilson said.
6. Don't pick too much at once. Leave enough of leaves to keep the growth process going.
7. Weed and water. Don't over-water. Containers dry out faster than the ground and will likely need daily watering during the hot months. For in-ground plots, water if it has rained less than 1 inch in the last week. No matter what, don't be neglectful.
"Especially for containers, the biggest challenge will be to make sure people keep them watered," Wilson said.
8. Beginners should start small. "When it gets to the maintenance part and the summer gets longer, people give up. They need to start small, have some success and start with plants you know you'll use."
And then … use them!
- Put a sprig of rosemary on a chicken breast as it grills.
- Snip some basil onto vegetables as they cook.
- Gather some fresh herbs and give someone a cheap but thoughtful gift.
- And watch your grocery savings accumulate.

Questions & Answers
Question: My husband and I have some questions for you about his residency case. We filed for his green card in January and then recently went to an interview at the immigration office. The officer was really rude and even said to our faces that we were not a real marriage because we were living with his mom, so don't have any bills in our name and we didn't bring much documents (because we didn't know we needed to) and because I did not change my husband's last name. I told the officer that we were staying with his mom to save money for our own place and that I didn't fill out the immigration forms using my new married name because my U.S. Passport has my old last name and I didn't think that my new married name would be valid with immigration. But the officer didn't seem to accept that explanation. The officer said we would get a decision in the mail, but its been a month and we haven't received anything. We want to know what we should do next. Thanks for your help.
It's a shame that you had such a bad experience. I know it seems awful, but the USCIS officer is trained to view certain issues in marriage immigration cases as red flags. Living with a relative is one, and not having utility bills in the couple's name and failing to provide the officer with other joint marital documents is another. However, USCIS regulations do not require a wife to take her husband's last name in marriage-based immigration cases. A married woman may keep her own name, adopt her husband's last name or choose to hyphenate her name along with his. The real, main issue in marriage-based immigration cases, is the critical necessity for a couple to clearly establish that the marriage is real - by providing extensive documentation from the time of the marriage until the interview, not just for the past month (for example Joint: bank statements, driver's license or state ID at the same address, auto insurance, utilities, both names on the lease, tax return "married filing jointly", lots and lots of photos, etc. the list goes on and on. Affidavits attesting to a genuine marriage are usually not given much weight by an officer and are generally used as a last resort when a couple does not have enough other "real" documentary evidence to show. USCIS officers have a lot of discretion to decide whether a marriage is real or not, based upon the totality of all the evidence presented by the couple, as well as the way a couple presents themselves and especially the way they interact together at the immigration interview.
In my experience, couples in marriage cases simply do not take marriage immigration cases seriously enough or prepare well enough for or USCIS interview - until they run into problems and enter the "nightmare" of the USCIS presuming they are in a fake marriage. The result often leads to successive interviews at the USCIS office, being separated and interrogated, waiting for months and sometimes even years to eventually receive approval of a Green Card which in many cases could have easily been approved at the first interview, with the proper planning. So, with that said, I suggest making an INFOPASS appointment to do a status check on your case. It is likely that you will be told that your case is still being reviewed by the officer, which could mean six months more waiting for a new interview to be scheduled.
Another option is to contact your Congressional representative, complete the form and write a very clear explanation of your case and why you believe that Congressional assistance is warranted. This may help to move your case along so that the officer either issues you a letter requesting additional documentary evidence that your marriage is real, or schedules you for another marital interview so that you have a chance to bring marital documents which proves your relationship and to answer questions about your relationship in an interview either together, or separately. In the meantime, come see me and I'll give you instructions on how you can begin preparing your case properly so that you will have everything you need and be fully prepared for your next interview.
Justice Department Decides To Delay Appeal To The U.S. Supreme Court To Lift The Stay On Obama's Executive Actions On Immigration
After the 5th Circuit Appeals Court ruled last week against the Justice Department's request for the court to lift the temporary "stay" issued by the Texas federal court, the Justice Department has decided to delay filing an emergency Appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court and instead, pursue an appeal of the injunction with the 5th Circuit Appeals Court which is expected to proceed in July.
A spokesperson for the Justice Department told reporters that the best way to win the case is "to focus on the ongoing appeal on the merits of the preliminary injunction itself. That appeal has been proceeding on an expedited basis, and the 5th Circuit is expected to hear argument the week of July 6.".
Presumably, an emergency Appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court remains an option, if the lower Appeals court ultimately rules against lifting the stay on Obama's Executive Actions. Stay tuned…

State of Texas Denies U.S. Birth Certificates
For Children Born To Undocumented Mothers
In its apparent continuing campaign against Immigrants, a new policy in the State of Texas is targeting U.S. born children of Immigrants. Under the new policy, Texas Department of State Health Services is refusing to issue birth certificates for children of undocumented immigrants, due to their immigration status.
As a result, Texas Rio Grande Legal Aid has filed a lawsuit against the state agency seeking to force state officials to issue U.S. Birth certificates to the children in accordance with the U.S. Constitution. Under the Citizenship Clause, governed by the
Fourteenth Amendment
to the constitution, it states: "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."
The issue of Birthright Citizenship has been a hot topic lately among many conservatives and has been the subject of Congressional hearings held to discuss the right and whether or not it should be abolished. For now, this and other Constitutional rights supersede state laws and experts are confident that the State of Texas will ultimately be required to issue U.S. Birth Certificates to all children born in its state.
Delays in USCIS Issuance of Work Permits Results in Lawsuit
A lawsuit has been filed against the USCIS for its failure to issue "interim" work permits to Immigrants, when USCIS delays in work permit processing exceed 90 days. Federal regulations require that work permits, request on form I-765 be issued within 90 days, or a temporary work permit called "interim" work authorization be issued.
These "interim" work permits allow Immigrants to work temporarily while waiting for the regular EAD to be issued. However, against the regulatory requirement, the USCIS has been refusing to issue the temporary work permits and as a result, has been sued by an Immigrants rights group seeking to force the USCIS to begin issuing the "interim permits in accordance with the law.

An I-94 is a small slip of paper which was, until recently issued to all international visitors and visa holders entering the U.S.. Officially called the Arrival/Departure card, the I-94 contained the date of entry into the U.S. as well as the date by which the individual must depart from the U.S.. Often, individuals do not understand how important this little card is until it is too late.
In order to change immigration status inside the U.S. to any other immigrant or non-immigrant visa status, immigration regulations require that a copy of the I-94 be included with the application to establish eligibility. Foreign nationals must prove that they entered the U.S. legally and were inspected by an immigration officer in order to qualify to file for immigration status in the U.S.. Those who did not enter the U.S. legally are generally not entitled to obtain any new immigration status in the U.S., even when married to a U.S. citizen unless a Waiver is obtained.
Immigration How To: How Do I Replace A Lost I-94 Card?
Applying For U.S. Citizenship – Understanding How Long
A U.S. Resident Must Wait
There is often a lot of confusion about when an immigrant is eligible to apply for U.S Citizenship through Naturalization. The basic rule is that a U.S. Permanent Resident (Green Card holder) can apply for U.S. citizenship once he or she has been a Resident in the U.S. for at least 5 years.
90-Day Early Application Rule
Even though the rules require a U.S. Permanent Resident hold a Green Card for five years, Residents are actually allowed to submit a Naturalization application to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) within the 90-days before their five-year anniversary has arrived.
Here are some of the exceptions to the Five year rule:
Exception to Five-Year Rule for Residents Who Are Married to a U.S. Citizen
For U.S. Permanent Resident who are married to a U.S. Citizen, the waiting time to apply for U.S. Citizenship is only 3 years, if, during that time, they have been a Resident married to, as well as living with, a U.S. citizen and the U.S. Citizen spouse has been a U.S. Citizen for at least 3 years.
This exception is called "Early Naturalization" and applies even for Residents who did not obtain their Green Card through marriage. So, for example, a U.S. Permanent Resident who obtained a Green Card through employment, then married a U.S. citizen soon after can apply for Naturalization once they have been a Resident and married to the U.S. Citizen for at least 3 years.
Exception to Five-Year Rule for Battered Spouses of a U.S. Citizen Granted VAWA Protection
Battered spouses and children are also eligible to apply for Early Naturalization, since the law would not want to force a Resident to have to stay in an abusive marriage for three years just to obtain the benefit of the Three-year exception when they applied for U.S. Citizenship..
Children of a Battered spouse must still reach age 18 before submitting their application for citizenship.
Partial Exception to Five-Year Rule for Refugees
Those granted Residency based upon having come to the United States as a refugee can count all the time they spent in the U.S. after being granted refugee status towards the five years necessary before they are eligible to apply for Naturalization.
Partial Exception to Five-Year Rule for People Granted Asylum (Asylees)
Those granted Residency based upon asylum in the United States can count the one year of time as an asylee towards the five years necessary before they are eligible to apply for Naturalization.
Good to know...
An I-94 is a small slip of paper which was, until recently issued to all international visitors and visa holders entering the U.S.. Officially called the Arrival/Departure card, the I-94 contained the date of entry into the U.S. as well as the date by which the individual must depart from the U.S.. Often, individuals do not understand how important this little card is until it is too late.
In order to change immigration status inside the U.S. to any other immigrant or non-immigrant visa status, immigration regulations require that a copy of the I-94 be included with the application to establish eligibility. Foreign nationals must prove that they entered the U.S. legally and were inspected by an immigration officer in order to qualify to file for immigration status in the U.S.. Those who did not enter the U.S. legally are generally not entitled to obtain any new immigration status in the U.S., even when married to a U.S. citizen unless a Waiver is obtained.
If your I-94 card is lost, stolen or seriously damaged, you can apply to replace it by filing Form I-102, Application for Replacement/Initial Arrival-Departure Document. You also may file Form I-102 if you wish to receive a replacement I-94 card with corrected information on it — for example, if the immigration officer spelled your name wrong on the initial I-94 card. The nonrefundable filing fee for Form I-102 is $320. It generally takes about 60 days to receive the I-94 replacement card in the mail.
Under the new electronic I-94 system implemented in 2013, international visitors are no longer issued paper I-94 cards upon entry into the U.S.. Instead, individuals are provided with instructions on accessing their I-94 records online and printing the I-94 card out from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agency. You can visit the CBP site to print out your paper I-94 cards:

text: I played a Kingston Z6 in a store years ago. The one I played was very well set up and had a great neck. Like yours, it had a very light body. The clear finish looked a bit low-budget but I didn't notice any sharp fret ends or anything. It was also quite bright sounding but I felt it lacked punch in the low mids. Overall, I was pretty impressed for the price. Hoping everything gets sorted for you!

Next Article: Causes of Corporate Governance Issues
Back to: CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
What is the role of ethics within corporate governance?
Corporate codes of ethics are internal measures aimed at ensuring fair and honest conduct by members of the corporation. The corporate law objective to promote openness of information is echoed in codes of ethics. The main problems with codes of ethics are that they do not force compliance and there is very little consequences for individuals failing to adhere to their provisions. As such, corporate actors routinely avoid these provisions in favor of self-interested actions.
• Note: These codes, however, may serve as the standard by which corporate members are judged in the event of direct or derivative actions against the corporation or the member.
• Discussion: Why do you think corporations establish codes of ethics? Do you think they are effective? Why or why not? Should there be repercussions for failure to adhere to corporate ethics policy? Why or why not?
• Practice Question: How do rules of ethics affect corporate governance practice?

Johnson Creek shuts down
E-liquid manufacturer Johnson Creek Enterprises (JCE) will close its operations effective Oct. 11. CEO Heidi Braun told Vapor Voice that the company is "going out of business."
Founded in 2008 and based in Hartland, Wisconsin, USA, Johnson Creek was the first e-liquid manufacturer on U.S. soil. The company grew into one of the country's largest independent producers of e-liquid, employing more than 60 people and occupying a 52,000-square foot facility.
"Johnson Creek will no longer be in business," said Brown. "I'm so very sorry that we've failed you."

A survey carried out by Yodle during 2013 found that a staggering 52% of local businesses still had not published a website to promote their products or services. Fortunately this figure has decreased over the years, to around 30% (although many of these do at least have a Facebook page).
For many the perception is that it will be too time consuming or cost prohibitive, yet there are some fabulous resources available to enable you to get a business website up and running quickly and at a reasonable price.
So what are the basic elements you will need?
1) A Domain Name
A .co.uk domain name usually costs around £5-£6 for 2 years, whilst a .com is generally more expensive, circa £12-£15.
For more information, take a look at my article: How To Search For & Buy A Domain Name.
2) Somewhere To Host Your Website
Whilst you can get deals which bundle you domain and hosting together, I recommend you keep them separate. Website hosting plans for a single website can start from as little as £35 per annum and many have the ability to upgrade as your site grows. For more information, please take a look at my article: Choosing A Web Hosting Company
3) A Software Platform To Build Your Website On
This can also be referred to as the 'Content Management System'.
For most small business, including some basic eCommerce sites, if you want to give yourself a headstart in terms of achieving good Search Engine Rankings I recommend you use WordPress.org (NOT wordpress.com, which is a 3rd party platform) to build your website. This software is free and if you follow the guidelines in part 2 above and select a hosting company with cpanel access, installation of wordpress is very easy.
4) The Text And Images To Go On It
Your website is your sales person in print – think about the words you use to describe your products and services to your potential customer when you are face to face with them or talking over the phone.
5) A Way Of Capturing Contact Details From People Who Visit Your Site
Unless you are very lucky, it is usually only a small proportion of visitors to your site who are ready to buy. So you need to have a way of putting them into the top of your 'sales' funnel. This can be achieved using Email Marketing / Auto responder Software. Please read my article to find out more.
6) If You Plan To Build Your Own Website – Someone To Teach You How To Do This
I love to help people get started with wordpress and am happy to talk to you about the process I would use to show you how to build your business website. I offer tuition via live one-2-one Zoom calls (Zoom is a free software), which has the ability to share screens so you can watch me and visa versa. For more info, please contact me.

gunnercooke is a full service corporate and commercial law firm, that operates in a different way. Our firm was created to allow lawyers to play to their strengths and focus their priorities on what they are good at and what they enjoy. As a firm, we are ambitious and strive to create an environment and infrastructure that allows our lawyers the freedom to provide and maintain a first class service to our clients. We always seek to be innovative so long as it benefits our clients and our lawyers.
What we do not have is the overwhelming baggage of some law firms – we are not weighed down by time sheets or targets of any kind internally, as each lawyer's relationship with gunnercooke is that of an independent partner working within the structure that our firm provides – and consequently our lawyers' first and last priority is serving our clients' best interests.
We comprise solely senior lawyers. At present, we are 100 partners, operating nationally and internationally via offices in London and Manchester. Every senior lawyer in our firm has a minimum 10,000 hours' experience in practice.
95% of our senior lawyers have spent time in-house or in business. We are seasoned negotiators, clear communicators and true business advisors. We understand the impact of our legal advice in the wider commercial context and the importance of project management, strategy, timeliness and momentum.
We operate via fixed fees. We provide certainty and transparency over the cost of our services, agreeing scopes of work and providing fixed fee quotes that will never change. This enables us to work closely with our clients to manage their legal budget and to ensure that our objective is entirely aligned with efficiency and performance to our clients' deadlines. It has a significant impact upon the way we work: we realise that it is in neither our own nor our client's interest to prolong a matter, or overcomplicate our advice. We do not have the same, expensive cost base of traditional law firms which means our rates are highly competitive.

If the future of the planet depends on us all learning to grow our own vegetables, we're doomed. Today I picked the best of the half dozen cabbages I've been trying to cultivate. I planted them back in April - autumn here - so they've been growing for eight months. The one I picked had the biggest heart, big enough to fill the palm of my hand, and it was solid feeling, so I decided it really wasn't going to grow much bigger. It was just about enough for three of us.
Meanwhile, at the greengrocer I could have bought a cabbage for around $1.50, and it would have been the green vegetable portion of four meals.
So - considering that I paid $3.25 for a punnet of six seedlings, and that of the other five, two have no heart at all, and three have hearts so tiny that I'd be lucky to get even one more meal out of them, I'd say my efforts have not been very successful. It's a good thing that we're not charged for water. And that I didn't spend any money on compost, fertiliser etc - or tools for that matter, since we have garden tools anyway.
Then there are the lettuces. I thought it would make more sense to buy seeds than seedlings, since it's much cheaper. Or would be if I hadn't bought seed raising mix to start them off in. Of course I ended up with far more than I needed. Eventually I planted out about a dozen, and at first I checked on them every night, and made sure they had enough water. But P has the automatic sprinkler system going, and we've had rain in the last week, so I hadn't checked for a few days. Then when I did go to see how they were getting on, they had vanished. Completely. Not even a single withered stalk to be seen.
On this occasion, I suspect slugs. In the past, I've had flower beds destroyed by blackbirds digging for grubs, and I've lost a whole crop of pansies to a marauding human. That was in a previous house, which had a grass strip and a narrow flower bed between the front stone fence and the pavement. The pansies were disappearing one by one, and I couldn't figure it out, until the neighbour told me she had seen a woman stop by, dig out a plant and pop it into her handbag!
So - back to the vegetables. To be honest, I suspect it is actually more sustainable (i.e. lower carbon footprint) not to grow your own. If a market gardener can get cabbages to the market at $1.50 each and still make a profit, he has to be doing it pretty efficiently. A large crop all in one place will probably need less water than a few in a garden bed, where the sprinkler system waters some of the path and lawn as well. Then, there are no plastic punnets to dispose of (or little foil packets if you're buying seeds). Sure, the cabbages travel to market by truck, using fuel, but there are a lot of cabbages in that truck per gallon of petrol. It really doesn't make too much difference whether I drive to the garden centre or the supermarket - except that the supermarket is closer. In fact I often walk to the supermarket.
As for farmer's markets, each grower there grows in smaller quantities, and many of the shoppers at a farmer's market seem to have travelled further to get there, so I suspect the fuel per cabbage is considerably higher than it is for those at the local supermarket.
If you want pesticide free organic vegetables, it may make sense to grow your own or buy at the Farmer's Market. If your carbon footprint is all you're concerned about, then it wouldn't surprise me at all to learn that the local supermarket is the best choice.
(I may just try again with the lettuces though. I don't want the slugs to beat me!)

"If you want pesticide free organic vegetables, it may make sense to grow your own or buy at the Farmer's Market."
Even if you grow your own food, it's hard to tell how "clean" your soil is. There are the pesticides that someone who owned your home before you could have used on the soil, the spillover from neighbors' yards, and the pesticides from the lawn -- if you have one and use pesticides on it -- that can get into the food. I used to live next to a really busy street, and I always worried that the food we grew would be fairly contaminated by pollution from the road. Sigh.

Identifying Florida Lawn Diseases
Due to the warmer than usual weather we are keeping a look out for Lawn Diseases. If you see any of these, we can help.
Brown Patch Fungus Disease - Brown patch disease is caused by a species of Rhizoctonia fungus. It usually occurs in St. Augustine, Bermuda, Bahia, and Centipede grasses. Brown patch fungus typically begins in a small area of the lawn, but can spread quickly. The initial sign of the disease is a yellowing of the foliage. Affected blades are easily pulled from the stolon because the fungus destroys the tissue at the leaf base. Infected areas will typically appear in a circular pattern. Surviving sprigs will often sprout in the center, giving a ring appearance. Brown patch thrives in warm, humid conditions. A fungicide is necessary to control Brown Patch Fungus.
Grey Leaf Spot Disease - Grey leaf spot disease is caused by the fungus Pyricularia grisesa, mainly affects St. Augustine grass, and it occurs during warm, humid weather. Oblong leaf spots are the most diagnostic disease symptom. The center of the leaf spot may have gray felt-like growth of sporulation after extended periods of warm, moist conditions. A leaf spot may appear olive green to brown in color, with a dark-brown border when sporulation is not present. When the disease is severe, grass may appear thin and generally unhealthy. Entire shoots or blades can turn brown if the disease progresses. Gray leaf spot can significantly reduce the vigor of the turf. The disease develops more rapidly and more severely on lush leaf tissue. Extended periods of leaf wetness favor infection and spread of the pathogen and increase the likelihood of disease. Best application results occur when fungicides are applied preventatively, according to the label, and while environmental conditions are favorable and while environmental conditions are favorable for disease development during the grow-in. If this disease becomes a serious issue, then contacting a lawn care service is recommended.
Fairy Ring Fungus - Fairy Ring fungus appears as rings of dark green or dead grass. This fungus usually appears in hot conditions during period of ample rain. It grows underground, in an outward fashion, along the root system of the grass. This fungus grows in a circular pattern that breaks down the organic matter in the soil. This biodegradation of organic matter releases nitrogen causing the infected grass the appear dark green. Fairy ring fungus fruits mushrooms which appear on the outer edge of the ring. The fungi produce a mass of cotton-like webbing called mycelium. As the mycelium dies, it may harden to a point where water will not be able to penetrate through it. This results in the death of the grass above it. Fairy Rings can be difficult to control. In the areas where the grass has died, increased water penetration must be achieved by core aeration or by creating holes in the rings. This can create an opportunity for a fungicide containing dichlorophen to reach the infected area, although fungicide applications have had an inconsistent history controlling Fairy Ring. In severe cases, a resodding / resoiling of the area may be needed to eradicate the fungus. One of the most effective ways to prevent Fairy Ring is to remove large piece of woody material (stump, dead tree roots) before turf is placed. Another proven method is to have a turf management program consisting of proper fertilization and a regular aerating schedule.
Dollar Spot - Dollar Spot is caused by the fungus Lanzia spp. and Moellerodiscus spp., which produces 2"-6" blotchy, circular areas. These patches can coalesce to become large straw-colored areas of turf. It develops in humid conditions at temperatures ranging from 60-85 degrees. In the initial stages of disease, leaves develop tan spots and bands and a reddish-brown border can often be seen on the leaf spots. Lesions on leaves have a distinctive hourglass shape with necrosis on the outer edges of the blade and healthy tissue in the middle. Fine, white, cobweb-like hyphae (fungal threads) may be noticed early in the morning. Dollar Spot can be controlled by various methods of biological control including composted materials, bacterium, fungus, and the application of nonpathogenic strains of S. homoeocarpa. BioJect Spot-Less and EcoGuard are two biological control products that are currently registered for dollar spot control. Worldwide, more money is spent on the chemical control of dollar spot than any other turfgrass disease.
Rust - Rust is a relatively easy lawn disease to identify in your lawn. Temperatures between 60-85 degrees (early Spring-Fall), low-light/low-nitrogen areas and drought-stricken areas are favorable development conditions. In the beginning disease stages, it causes yellow flecks on the grass blades and sheaths. The flecks enlarge and elongate over time, turning dark-yellow in color. These areas then rupture, releasing spores that are yellowish-orange to reddish-brown in color (hence the name "Rust"). A severe disease infection can cause the entire turfgrass shoot to turn yellowish to reddish-brown in color and slow growth in your lawn. Turf may appear to be thin as individual shoots begin to die. Towards the end of the Rust disease infection cycle, leaves may become shredded and point downward if the infection is severe enough. Also, plants infected by rust are more susceptible to infection from other turfgrass diseases. Rust can be controlled by the use of the fertilizers with adequate levels of nitrogen, reducing thatch with core aeration, and appropriate watering cycles. Treatment of Rust can be provided by fungicides like Triadimefon and Anilazine.

Take-All Root Rot - Take-all Root Rot usually initially appears in the spring and summer as yellowing patches of grass, ranging in size from a few inches to a few feet in diameter. Turfgrass roots will be whitish in color with sporadic black lesions. The stolons and rhizomes of the grass plants may also have black lesions. Affected areas of the turf will be easily removable, whereas healthy turf is difficult to remove, since the roots remain unaffected by rot and are firmly attached to the soil. By attacking the roots of the grass, Root Rot limits its ability to effectively absorb water and vital nutrients. Tips for controlling Root Rot include raising lawn mowing height during high-risk disease conditions, applying high levels of potassium with a balanced fertility program, and using slow-release forms of nitrogen applications. If these methods are ineffective, there are professional products on the market to control Take-all Root Rot.

A great day for football, don't you think?
Griffin had his first game on Saturday. We all brought our chairs and lined up on the sidelines ready to watch. On the opening kick off, Griffin, number 65, was leveled by the man he was assigned to block. I mean knocked backwards, on his backside, about 2 feet. This boy was HUGE. And considering Griffin was running at him with all his 88 pounds at full force this guy must have been a rock.
Nothing like starting your career with a hit like that.
My bottom didn't grace the chair again until the game was over, I was not expecting it to be so entertaining, so exciting, or so painful to watch my boy do what he loves.
Did I tell you all that I made him wait until 5th grade to play? Hayden was able to play in 4th grade, so that extra year was torture for him. Plus, he's old for his grade and Hayden was young, so he waited even LONGER.
In boy years, that's forever.
Here he is taking direction form Coach Dudley and Coach Mckenzie. These men are incredible.
Early in the game Griffin got his hands on the ball for this running play, but did not gain any yardage. Once again, I felt every hit directly in my uterus. Can anyone explain that to me?
Its hard to believe that only a month ago this 3 point stance was as difficult to do for him as it would be for me to touch my toes to my head. Now, he looks completely poised and balanced. When they were learning this particular posture the coaches used to be able to walk by and push them over with hardly any effort at all.
I don't know where he is in this picture, I just thought it was cool.
Here they are milling about at half time
But come game time, he was all business, he wouldn't even look at us as he walked by.
I believe he is blocking The Rock here. Look at the size of him. At least 5 times bigger, don't you think? This is the only picture we got with his buddy Parker in it. He also had a great time at the game.
Griffin's stats for the game included 1.5 sacks of which he'll be glowing about for days.
They won 16 to 0.
After the team huddle, these boys snuck off to perform a ritual which backfired on them, as they were no match for....
...Coach McKenzie.
