Barbados 367 (Edwards 120, Carter 85, Permaul 3-82) and 235 for 7 dec (Boucher 81) beat Guyana 225 (Johnson 46, Cummins 4-42, Nurse 4-74) and 284 (Z Mohamed 58*, Jacobs 51, Cummins 3-55, Nurse 3-59) by 93 runs
Barbados registered their first win in this year's Regional Four Day Competition, beating Guyana by an emphatic 93 runs in Bridgetown on Monday.
Barbados dominated the match on all days, beginning with some solid batting on the first day. Captain Kirk Edwards led from the front with a composed 120 off 195 balls. A 164-run fourth-wicket partnership between Edwards and Jonathan Carter gave Barbados a platform for a substantial score and useful contributions from the lower order ensured that the hosts reached 367.
Guyana's reply ran out of steam as Miguel Cummins and Ashley Nurse struck at regular intervals, stifling partnerships between the batsmen. Useful knocks from wicketkeeper Derwin Christian, captain Veerasammy Permaul and Ronsford Beaton managed to lift Guyana to 225.
With a lead of 142, Barbados were looking to bat Guyana out of the match. Opener Rashidi Boucher scored a sedate 81 and, with some support from Roston Chase, extended Barbados' lead to 377.
Guyana got off to a solid start in the chase, despite losing opener Tagenarine Chanderpaul early, as Rajindra Chandrika and Leon Johnson added 78 runs for the second wicket. The visitors were without their captain Permaul in the second innings, who joined the West Indies' preparatory camp ahead of the Zimbabwe series. His replacement in the batting line-up, Zaheer Mohamed, was stoic as he faced up to the challenge of a steep target. Mohamed added 88 runs for the seventh wicket with Christian, but ran out of partners as Guyana were dismissed for 284.
Windward Islands 260 (Smith 99, Theophile 70, Rampaul 5-65, Cariah 4-39) and 6 for 0 beat Trinidad and Tobago 179 (Mohammed 57) and 86 by ten wickets
An all-round bowling effort by Windward Islands helped them dismiss Trinidad and Tobago for 86 in their second innings, en route to a ten-wicket win in St Vincent. The result got them 12 points, to lead the Regional Four-Day Competition points table.
Fielding first, they bowled T&T out for 179 on the first day, with seamer Keon Peters taking three wickets and three other bowlers joining in with two each. Besides middle-order batsman Jason Mohammed, who scored a half-century, no one put up any resistance. The captain and wicketkeeper Denesh Ramdin, who has been selected for the West Indies squad for the upcoming one-day series against Zimbabwe, scored 20.
In reply, Windwards started strongly with a 124-run stand between Devon Smith and Tyrone Theophile, both of whom scored half-centuries. Smith was eventually bowled for 99, and the rest of the batting crumbled as Ravi Rampaul, returning from injury, and legspinner Lanic Cariah took nine wickets between them to bowl Windwards out for 260. Rampaul took 5 for 65.
But T&T couldn't claw their way back in the match. Eight batsmen, including Ramdin, scored in single digits, and no one scored more than 15, as they only evaded an innings defeat by five runs. Seamer Delorn Johnson and spinner Dalton Polius were the chief wreckers, taking three wickets each.
Windward Islands took two overs to reach their target of six to finish the game on the third day.

Illini Heritage Rehab & HC
When you're searching for a nursing home for your loved one, it's important to take into account how they are known for treating their residents. Illini Heritage Rehab & HC in Champaign, Illinois, has been rated below average in the past by Medicare inspectors. Some of the reasons for the rating include a lack of policies in place that prevent mistreatment of residents and inadequate assessments of each resident's functional capacity.
Lack of Transparency
In a report from Medicare, it was noted that resident rights were not being followed. The residents may have not been given information about who can get Medicaid benefits or which services Medicaid covers. Illini Heritage Rehab & HC was also cited for failing to properly hold, secure, and manage each resident's personal money that was left with the facility, and residents had no way to easily view the results of the most recent survey of the nursing home. Resident rights being ignored is a sign of nursing home neglect, and if you feel that someone you love has been taken advantage of in this way, you're not helpless. Contact a nursing home neglect attorney for help with what to do next.
Facility Disrepair
An important part of any nursing home is the maintenance of grounds. In Medicare's reports, Illini Heritage Rehab & HC has been previously cited for not keeping the area free from safety hazard and failing to keep all essential equipment working safely. Additionally, they have been cited for failure to provide housekeeping services, failing to have a program to prevent the spread of infection, and failing to have a control program to deal with mice, insects, and other pests. Facility grounds not being taken care of can be considered nursing home abuse—your loved ones should be confident that the place they are staying at is clean and safe. If you think you have a case of abuse on your hands, meet with a nursing home abuse lawyer to identify a course of action.
Emergency Planning
Residents have previously filed complaints with Illini Heritage Rehab & HC for a number of issues. One of those issues was the facilities plans, or lack thereof, for emergency situations. Upon inspection, the nursing home was found to have no record of quarterly fire drills and did not have a written emergency evacuation plan. Not having a procedure at hand in case of emergency is neglectful and is unacceptable. If you're concerned about what someone you know is dealing with at this nursing home, visiting with a nursing home neglect lawyer can help answer your questions.
About Illini Heritage Rehab & HC
Illini Heritage Rehab & HC offers space for 60 residents and offers nursing care as well as rehabilitative care for its clients. It is located in Central Illinois.

Grab the Advil! I have a headache. A really big, oversized ERP headache.
The Swinging Door of ERP Consultants
As a former implementation lead on the client side, I can attest that the practice of replacing consultants at every stage of an ERP implementation was frustrating and objectionable. Nothing was more disruptive than stopping all the progress you previously made, to once again explain your processes and requirements to the "new kid on the block".
- Be sure that you, as the client, hire and contract with recruiters or ERP implementation partners who understand the need to bring on functional and technical consultants that are committed to a project.
- Make sure that all the processes, requirements and key improvements have been thoroughly documented and are available for review. Insist that the new consultant studies the documents within his/her expertise before he goes to the client. Find ERP consultants that are willing to train the newcomer.
- Within a small to medium size company, most clients' core team members are still juggling multiple jobs. The last thing they need is to spend time repeating everything they have already discussed, maybe many times!
Continuity of consultants and staff, the ability for those consultants to update each other, and being sure that documentation is easily accessible, can eliminate the frustration that a core team member experiences throughout the entire implementation.
ERP Consultants Running Amok
Check with you ERP implementation partner on the rules that they establish for the workplace. I'm the client, and working like mad to keep the project moving forward. I have a stake in the outcome, and will most likely be rated on my performance. I feel I have every right to demand the same level of behavior from those that are being paid far more than I am.
- Does the partner allow the consultant to take recruiting calls during the workday? I have had numerous meetings/discussions interrupted by calls from headhunters. The consultants used "my" time to discuss their next gig.
- Does the partner allow the consultant to make all their travel arrangements during the workday? I watched and waited while they spent 30 minutes booking flights and hotel reservations.
- You provide lunch for the team members. Yet, many consultants use their expense accounts to go outside the premises. Make sure you are not being charged for those expenses.
- Are the consultants expected to arrive on time, and leave at the end of the workday? I have known some very dedicated consultants that would put in many hours at the workplace and many more during their evenings. Others wandered in when they felt like, took long lunch hours and left with no regard to the work that was required.
Be sure you monitor the behavior. Report problems immediately to the contractor. Get feedback from your own staff. You pay for excellent service, and you should expect nothing less. As the ultimate employer you should demand the same rules from your consultants as you expect from your direct employees.
Morale throughout the entire ERP project is paramount. Nothing can make your own employees less committed than working with ERP consultants that lack discipline, dedication and integrity.
Remember a happy project team is a successful project team!

After the Yankees lost in the ALCS, the 53-year-old Girardi said he would once again discuss his situation with his wife and three children.
Girardi owns a record of 910-710 with the Yankees. His win total ranks sixth in franchise history, trailing only Joe McCarthy (1,460), Joe Torre (1,173), Casey Stengel (1,149), Miller Huggins (1,067) and Ralph Houk (944).

Rumelihisarı (Rumelian Castle) is a fortress located in the Sarıyer district of Istanbul, Turkey, on a hill at the European side of the Bosporus. It gives the name of the quarter around it. It was built by the Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II between 1451 and 1452, before he conquered Constantinople. The three great towers were named after three of Mehmed II's viziers, Sadrazam Çandarlı Halil Pasha, who built the big tower next to the gate, Zağanos Pasha, who built the south tower, and Sarıca Pasha, who built the north tower.
Turkish Composer Can Atilla was born in Ankara in 1969. In 1980, he started to attend the violin class of Hacettepe University, Ankara State Conservatory, and graduated with BA degree in 1990.
In Turkey, he participated in numerous competition, festival and music organizations as composer, arranger and conductor. He prepared the scores of the film 'Kuruluş - Osmancık', which was re-edited as a movie for the 700th anniversary of the Ottoman Empire from the TRT television series directed by Yücel Cakmakli. The scores of this movie was prepared, for the first time in Turkey, using 'Multitrack Orchestral Dubbing' method, a method used for recording movie scores in Hollywood and Europe. For this method, in which electronic instruments are combined with actual instruments, a mixed orchestra was formed for the live recordings and this orchestra was conducted by Can Atilla.

I woke up at 6AM in my new apartment. I had just moved the previous day and I was exhausted!! I needed a cup of coffee but my coffee maker was hidden in a box I couldn't find.
I grabbed my keys to go to the nearest McDonalds…..still in my pajamas but I didn't care, I planned on going in the drive-thru. I was almost at my car when my new neighbor introduced herself. She was short, petite with blonde hair and big boobs. Similar to my appearance but a good foot shorter.
"Hi, I'm Reagan."
"Priscilla," I replied.
She welcomed me to the community and pointed out the nosy neighbors to avoid. When she saw that I was leaving she asked:
"Do you mind driving me up to CVS so I can get my prescription?"
I knew exactly where CVS was, it was a block away, next to the McDonalds. It was only a block away, she could have walked, and she should have but instead I said:
"Sure, I don't mind."
I dropped her off at CVS, went to Mc Donald's and when I was about to head back home I wondered if she needed a ride. I looked around but didn't see her walking. I made a loop into the CVS parking lot and parked by the front door. I waited for ten minutes but still no sign of her. Maybe she was doing some additional shopping I thought.
I turned my ignition off and went inside. As soon as the electronic double doors open I see her in a fist fight with the manager. Why I didn't walk out and leave I don't know. My instant reaction was to pull her off this woman.
I heard the manager say:
"I smell alcohol on you."
Followed by:
"I've called the police."
Again, I don't know why I didn't leave, but instead I grabbed my neighbor, we got in the car and I asked:
"What the hell was that about?"
"They wouldn't let me pay for my prescription with my father's credit card," she replied.
It made no sense to me but whatever.
I started the ignition and while backing out of the parking spot I could see the manager through the glass doors and on the phone.
You could see our apartments from the store and as I was getting on the main road five police cars passed us in the opposite direction.
There they go I thought.
Before I could blink one was behind me with red and blue lights flashing.
What did this woman do, I thought? Does she have drugs on her? Did she steal something? What is she not telling me?
When the officer approached my window he immediately asked me to get out of the car.
"Officer what is going on," I asked?
"I don't know, you tell me," he said?
I told him the story, he told me to sit down on the curb and I watched him join the other officers who were now talking with her.
The officer approaches me again and asks me to stand up. I did.
"She has a completely different story. She says the two of you are good friends," the officer said.
"WHAT????? That's bullshit, I just met her."
The officer gets closer to me and asks:
"Have you been drinking?"
Drinking as in alcohol, I thought? It's not even 7AM, I have coffee in my cup holder not a fucking beer.
"No officer of course not," I replied.
"Step over here please," he said.
Great, I thought. I had been through this eight years prior and he was about to have me perform a field sobriety test. Why the fuck does he think I've been drinking, I thought?
I wasn't drunk, didn't stumble or wobble. I was sober ,but he didn't think so.
I was handcuffed and placed in the back seat of the squad car.
In the meantime, these jackass cops believed my neighbor's story, gave HER the keys to MY car along with my cell phone. Gave my valuable possessions to a woman I didn't fucking know!!!
Once at the police station they take me to a room, turn on the video camera, asked me to do a sobriety test all over again followed by questions.
Once again they asked how I knew that woman. My story didn't change, I told the truth.
They didn't believe me, one of the officers said:
"Do you not understand why we don't believe you? It's hard to believe in this day and age someone who give someone they don't know a ride."
I'm sure I had a pissed, dumbfounded look on my face after that comment.
"Give me the breathyler so I can go home," I yelled.
The officers looked at one another and replied:
"We are not giving you that option, we want a blood test instead."
"Blood test, why," I asked?
"We think you're under the influence of something."
Okay, first of all I watched my cousin die of AIDS because of a an improper sanitized needle. I have no problem with needles or blood but trusting the needle is sanitized is a different story.
I have a problem when the hospital sticks a needle in me and I'm certainly not going to let the county jail stick a needle in my arm.
I refused and I went to jail.
When I got out, my car was safely parked at the apartments but I never retrieved my phone. I went to the CVS and spoke with the manager. I asked what had happened and she said the woman went ballistic because the card she tried to use came up as "stolen." I informed the woman "I" was the one arrested and she was shocked.
"You were the peace-maker. I gave them the description of the other woman, not you," she said.
The next day I visited with a lawyer.
"I want to take this to trial," I said.
"Well, let's just hold off on making this decision right now. Let's look at your video tape first."
I leaned towards him and said:
"NO, I am going to fight this because I am innocent."
The next time I visited my lawyer's office was to talk about my video tape. First of all, there were two tapes, one at the scene and one at the jail. The video tape at the scene was never found but after six months, the video tape at the jail finally appeared.
"So what did you think," I asked?
My lawyer leans back in his chair, with his hands folded and said:
"It was one of the best tapes I have ever seen."
I smiled.
"However, there is only one problem."
"What's that," I asked?
"You look too happy having been arrested for a DWI."
And it was true. I wasn't angry or hostile in the video but rather calm and cooperative.
I said to my attorney:
"What good would it have done if I got angry, yelled and called them names? They had already arrested me, they were not letting me go. I had a smile on my face because I knew I was innocent."
The case drug out for another year and now it was the morning of the trial.
I was nervous but not really. I had faith justice would be served.
Then my attorney approaches me and says:
"The prosecutor has decided to drop the case because the main officer was recently fired for falsifying a police report."
It cost me $15,000 to be a good Samaritan, but partly it was my fault.
Then a year later the unexpected happened. I went into a convenient store and was standing in line when I noticed the officer standing in front of me was the same officer that had arrested me. In fact he was the dumbass who made the comment about people not giving strangers a ride in this day and age. I had remembered the name on his badge that day, Officer Barrett.
So I said:
"Good to see you again Officer Barrett, do you remember me?"
He turned around and said:
"No sorry I don't." (Perhaps he didn't recognize me because that day I had no makeup on, hadn't combed my hair and was still in my pajamas.
"It's okay, I figured you wouldn't," I said. Then I continued:
"You arrested me about a year and a half ago at 7AM for a DWI. The case was dismissed because your fellow officer was fired for falsifying a police report."
He said nothing. He just stared at me….shocked was a good word.
"So officer tell me…..how could I have been drunk when I recognize your face and remember your name?"

With the Supreme Court set to take up contempt notice against Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) chief Altaf Hussain on Monday, the party requested the court on Friday to exempt him from personally appearing before the bench seized with the issue.
MQM leader Farooq Sattar filed a petition on behalf of Mr Hussain in the court's Karachi registry through his council Dr Farogh Naseem.
Quoting newspaper reports, the petition said the MQM chief faced threats from extremist outfits, adding that his followers and the party voters were worried about his safety. They had repeatedly requested him not to come to Pakistan.
The petition also referred to the tragic assassinations of Benazir Bhutto and Bashir Ahmed Bilour.
It requested the court to exempt Mr Hussain from personally appearing in the court vis-a-vis its Dec 14 order and allow Dr Sattar to represent him as his attorney or through Dr Naseem.
The apex court had issued a contempt of court notice to Mr Hussain and directed him to personally appear before it on Jan 7.
The court had observed that in a telephonic address from London to a public gathering in Karachi on Dec 2 the MQM chief had made contemptuous and threatening remarks against the court and its judges for issuing an order about fresh delimitation of constituencies in Karachi.


text: Green Party candidate Jill Stein had led efforts for recounts in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania [EPA] Election officials from the US state of Wisconsin have certified Donald Trump's victory in the state, as a judge in Pennsylvania stopped a push for a recount there, putting an end to the Green Party candidate's push for a closer look at the November 8 presidential election results. The results in Wisconsin changed only slightly after election officials conducted a 10-day recount before reconfirming Trump as the official winner on Monday. The head of the north-central state's elections commission announced the results, saying Trump won by 22,748 votes, which is 131 votes more than the original margin between him and Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton. Trump celebrated the result on Twitter: The final Wisconsin vote is in and guess what - we just picked up an additional 131 votes. The Dems and Green Party can now rest. Scam! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 12, 2016 But according to American constitutional lawyer John Bonifaz, who appeared on the programme Democracy Now!: "While some counties have agreed to hand-count the ballots, other counties are not." According to Bonifaz, these counties are "feeding the ballots through the very same machines that gave us the tallies on election night. "Ron Rivest, a leading computer scientist from MIT, says that's like going to the same doctor for a second opinion," Bonifaz, who's also the founder of the National Voting Rights Institute, said on the programme. "It makes absolutely no sense to feed those same ballots through the machines and tell us that they're recounting the votes." Jill Stein launches vote recount bid in key US states Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein requested the recount in Wisconsin, arguing that election machines could have been manipulated. Stein issued a statement saying she was disappointed that not all counties had conducted a full hand recount. Bonifaz echoed Stein's remarks: "What we needed in Wisconsin was a full statewide recount of all the ballots, hand-counted. And there are other systems in the state of Wisconsin, unlike in Michigan, that don't have any paper ballots. They're electronic voting systems. And they also exist in Pennsylvania. And these systems have been proven to be hackable and vulnerable for our overall integrity of our process." But Commission Chairman Mark Thomsen said Wisconsin voters could "have confidence that Wisconsin's election results accurately reflect the will of the people, regardless of whether they are counted by hand or by machine." On Monday a federal judge rejected Stein's initiative to secure a recount in Pennsylvania. Trump's lawyers had filed a suit there seeking to deny Stein's request. Recount efforts were also thwarted in Michigan after another federal judge halted that drive, citing a lack of evidence that fraud or errors had occurred.

Microscopy has been of great value for studying the regulation of life and disease at the level of cells and molecules. Our lab routinely uses an approach to record large-scale electron microscopy (EM) data, called nanotomy for nano-anatomy. A database with donor material from type 1 diabetes (T1D) patients was created to study the disease pathogenesis at high resolution. However, the vast amount of data is only in grey scales and therefore difficult to analyze. With correlated light microscopy and EM (CLEM), molecules are specifically identified with fluorescence which is subsequently put in high resolution context using EM. The aim of this thesis was to develop novel CLEM probes and targeting approaches to, amongst others, improve the analysis of nanotomy data. The focus was on affinity-based labels to identify endogenous targets. Upon labeling of already embedded EM material with quantum dots combined with a newly developed 'colorEM' approach, abnormal cells with both exocrine and endocrine characteristics were identified in nanotomy datasets of islets of Langerhans from both a T1D rat model and patient donor material. First results from a functional follow up study suggest that damaged exocrine cells can possibly induce a pro-inflammatory reaction by insulin producing beta cells in early onset T1D. In summary, this thesis first provides an overview of recent CLEM developments including a guideline. Furthermore, efficient labeling on EM material was optimized in combination with improved detection methods, which led to new insights to T1D pathogenesis.

Notable changes:
- Fix for some occasional MIDI overruns that could cause hanging notes.
- Fix for wrong OscA pitch when when polymod routes OscB to FreqA.
- Adding an option to limit VCF cutoff frequency to 22Khz, enabled by pressing FROM TAPE + 9 (now shared with the "spread" option). Basically, it helps avoid some sound harshness due to strange filter behavior in the ultrasound range (see this post for more info).

COMMENTARY: Alaskans need a champion of women on the court
Posted Wednesday, August 15, 2018 - 12:06 pm
Should Brett Kavanaugh be nominated to take a lifelong seat on the Supreme Court? The national debate on Roe vs. Wade presents an opportunity to step back and take stock: what is the status of women's rights in America? Will this nominee strengthen democracy, improve equality and justice for all? As a strong Alaskan and female leader, we count on Sen. Lisa Murkowski to ask these questions as she weighs her decision. Consider two things you need to control your life: 1) financial independence, and 2) freedom to control your own body. Kavanaugh poses a threat to these critical rights. His non-committal stance on Roe alarms those concerned with the freedom to choose to bear children. This question is critical to a woman's capacity to support herself and her children, a challenge that still places women at a disadvantage. To those who assert, "women control over half the nation's wealth," and are therefore financially secure, I ask, what does "control" mean? And which women? Sweeping language about women unilaterally having economic power equal to men distorts truth: women still face hurdles to equality. The median pay for women on the list of the highest-paid U.S. chief executives was $15.7 million in 2014, $1.6 million less than for men. Have we broken through the glass ceiling? Only 11 of those 200 CEOs were women. Census data confirms that women earn $.80 cents on average for each $1 dollar that men do. Progress has been hard fought and slow paced, and remains predominantly enjoyed by white women. Across all major racial and ethnic groups, women earn less than men of the same group. Female leaders in corporate America earn compensation packages that rival their male peers. But how many women make it to the top? Women of color made up only 5% of executive or senior-level managers in 2015. In 2017, Hispanic women earned 62.1% what White men earned, and Black women earned 67.7% of White men. Given the Supreme Court's role, Kavanaugh's nomination has tremendous impact on the future of women. Let us thank the powers that be for 'elastic' Constitutional interpretations - for if it were not the job of the Court to interpret, rather than simply impose, women would lack legal access to any kind of equality today. Does it not say that, "all men are created equal"? That's not us, ladies. To many of us, the bottom line is this: if a woman cannot 1) earn enough to support herself and 2) control her reproductive rights, then she cannot be a full participant in democracy. Voting is powerful, but only one tool. The right to decide when and if to start a family represents a significant determinant in both financial and personal freedoms. Women with children often leave the workforce to do most of the unpaid labor of raising the next generation of citizens, a well-documented setback to lifelong earning trajectories. These women are raising the our future scientists, Supreme Court nominees, social workers and manual laborers. In other words, all of us. As a single woman under 30, I want what many "up and coming" women do; home ownership, a corner desk, and financial security for the family I will start someday. I'll need the law's support to do that. Sen. Murkowski holds a seat in the United States Congress, whose membership is only 20% female. She knows there are inequities; she has championed women before. Now we're counting on her to do it again. Claire Pywell resides in Anchorage with her partner, Dave. She is a volunteer with several community organizations and an avid outdoors person.

If an animal attacks someone, the owner of that animal may be liable for the resulting injuries. This falls under personal injury law. The majority of animal attack claims involve dog bites, but claims may be made for any attack by any animal whether wild or domesticated. Depending on which state you live in, there may be specific statutes that govern animal attacks. A personal injury attorney familiar with animal attack cases can help you determine if you have a case and how to best proceed.
Proving an Animal Attack Case
Animal attack cases can be more complicated than they first appear. These cases can either be governed by the theory of negligence or the theory of strict liability depending on the state. If the case is governed by the theory of negligence, the plaintiff must show that the owner of the animal acted carelessly or recklessly in allowing the attack. For example, if a dog was not properly secured behind a fence, escaped and bit someone, the owner would be clearly negligent. If the case is governed by strict liability, the plaintiff does not have to prove negligence.
One Bite Laws
In some cases, the knowledge of the owner is also considered. If the animal has never attacked anyone before, the owner may be shielded from liability on the first offense. This is known as the "one bite rule." About half the states in the U.S. have this rule. Once an animal has attacked a human, however, the owner is no longer shielded from liability.
Animal Attack Exceptions
There are two circumstances in which an owner may not be liable for an animal attack. These include:
- Provocation – If the attack can be shown to have been caused by intentional provocation by the plaintiff, the victim's claim may be limited or barred.
- Trespassing – If an attack occurs on the animal owner's property, the owner is only liable for injuries to those who are legally permitted onto the property. This is treated as a premises liability case.
If you or a loved one has been injured in an animal attack, the lawyers at Ankin Law Office can help you seek compensation. Contact us today for a free consultation.

FrescoPelli has been on the market for over 30 years as a raw hides and skins supplier selling to the finest Italian tanneries and, at the beginning of the 90s, it became producer of finished leather.
The long experience acquired over the years has allowed the group to have privileged access into markets with the best raw material such as Nigeria, China and the Carpathian area. This material is employed to produce, even on site, finished leather of the highest quality for the manufacturing of both shoe and other leather goods.
Thanks to the intense research of the past years, it was possible to develop high quality articles which are regularly purchased by some of the most renowned fashion brands.
Some of the most important factors which allowed us to offer up to date, excellent quality finished leather for shoes and handbags at competitive prices, are close control of the raw, technology and an operational base in Tuscany.

By area, Colorado is ranked eighth in size, measuring approximately 380 miles wide by 280 miles in length. A small 0.4% of the state is comprised of water and total land area is about 104,094 square miles. The capital of the state is Denver, also known as the Mile High City because its official elevation is exactly one mile above sea level. Colorado was admitted to the Union on August 1, 1876 as the 38th state. The climate of Colorado varies considerably throughout the state because of the range of elevations. The geography includes mountains, foothills, plains and desert areas, and therefore the mountains and valleys can considerably affect the climate of local regions. In general, higher elevations experience cooler temperatures and more rainfall. Undoubtedly, Colorado is considered one of the best states in the nation for business, with considerable industry developing in scientific research and high technology. A number of important federal facilities are also located in the state, including NORAD, the United States Air Force Academy, NOAA, and the U.S. Geological Survey.

I had no idea that you can buy heart worm remedy outside of the nation with out a vet's prescription. I would purchase one thing for her after which buy a costlier collectible for my assortment. For other web sites, there are various locations with consumer suggestions and opinion that you could check out to see what their expertise with shopping on the online retailer has been. Now mostly I keep this listing to encourage folks to buy these sorts of things to offer to homeless individuals they know.
Ii Since her son's demise in 2002, Wooly has founded and maintained a web site, On-line Players Anonymous, , where gaming addicts and their friends and family can discover support. However consumption of alcohol with drugs will certainly reduce the depth of it. I actually do not understand how that is going to work. Oregano oil is one of those versatile substances that needs to be a staple in each medication cabinet. There was an explosion of interest in genomic medicine pushed along by the discharge of next-generation sequencing devices like MiSeq and PGM, as well as the development of methods to assay small numbers of loci at very low cost and fast turnaround.
I lived inVirginia, USA for 2 yrs like an Au pair I met my wornderful host family and so they want that I stay we go through multiple options to I can stay. From writing on-line to internet online affiliate marketing to selling products to taking cellphone calls, the record goes on and on relating to working from dwelling or online or as a freelancer. Each the Mayo Clinic and the Cleveland Clinic have web sites very similar to WebMD, they simply have not been on-line quite as long. Turmeric is just not particularly common in western delicacies, however is a mainstay in dishes from South Asia.
So, check whether the positioning is asking for a prescription before you purchase medicine online. They could be spending their cash on children, hire, meals, and different issues, and I do not think they've to give up their pets as a result of they cannot afford all the pieces they are informed to do. If they can't afford yearly testing, they most likely can afford to buy heartworm preventative from an internet pharmacy,or possibly ivermectin sheep drench, which does not have to be diluted and may treat many dogs for lower than a field of heartworm tablets.
You can even attach your prescription online whenever you need to do so. Ayurvedic and homeopathic classes are additionally our forte, and a wide range of medication is accessible underneath these streams. Say company offering relocation and i've a option to make between States (CA/Texas/North Carolina) or Amsterdam or London I'm from India I have been to states however to not these locations 🙂 when company gives relocation they usually works on PR in states (initially move you on L1) I have by no means seen whoever left ever coming again.

Fence Styles Of Yesterday, Today, And Tomorrow
by Clare Kaufman
Repair-Home Columnist
A fence is more than a row of boards ringing your property. From the classic white picket fence to the 'living' eco-fence (like an evergreen hedge), you have a range of options to choose from. Before you call your fence or landscape contractor, take a moment to explore the wide world of fences.
Classic Fences
Classic fences include both formal and rustic options. Many of the sturdier designs require the assistance of a fence contractor; others come prefabricated for easy installation.
- Picket. The iconic white picket fence is a series of waist-high, pointed boards held together by two cross boards. Picket fences often come in panels, making them an attractive option for do-it-yourselfers and fence contractors alike.
- Ranch. The standard ranch fence is composed of horizontal rails connected to vertical posts spaced at eight-foot intervals. A variation on the theme is the 'crossbuck' fence, which features two crossed bars within each section. Traditionally used to fence in horse or livestock, the ranch fence offers rustic charm.
- Split Rail. Another rustic choice, the simple split-rail fence was a favorite among North American pioneers. Essentially a collection of split logs stacked zigzag for stability, split rail fences are easy to construct and a good choice for rocky, impenetrable ground.
- Wrought Iron. An ornamental fence made from tube steel, the wrought iron fence is durable and often features elegant craftsmanship. A landscape contractor can suggest a design that complements your yard.
Green Fences
With the shortage of renewable resources, many homeowners opt for an eco-friendly fence. A landscape fence contractor may be your best resource for exploring options, since many green fences incorporate living plants.
- Bamboo. Bamboo is "the fastest growing plant on Earth," according to one fence contractor. The fact that bamboo grows like a weed makes it an extremely renewable resource, and as such, a very green choice for your property.
- Salvaged Wood. Pick up salvaged building material at a local reuse facility and construct your own ranch or panel style fence.
The trend toward green building has challenged landscape and fence contractors to find new fence solutions. More avant garde options include plastic lumber made from recycled bottles, yard trimmings bound together, and a cob wall. Whether you lean toward the classic or the experimental, a contractor can help you find an option that balances style, function, and resources.

Julie and the Cadillacs
It's 1964 and The Beatles and The Rolling Stones are storming the charts all over the world. But, behind them, thousands of young groups like Julie And The Cadillacs are still fighting for success.
London PR man Adam Schneider and his partner Phil Green sign the group to a management contract and promise to make them stars. They move to London, where they meet lots of other music people, and Julie falls in love with songwriter Mike Williams.
It all goes wrong for the band when their first release flops, and Julie turns down Adam Schneider's amorous advances. He is furious and vows that she will never work in the record industry again.
The band is disheartened and penniless. Mike walks out after a row and the Cadillacs go back to Liverpool. Julie stays on in London, working as a waitress in the Rivoli Restaurant.
Ten months later, Adam Schneider's former secretary Babs comes into the restaurant and spots Julie. She offers to try and get her work as a session singer making radio jingles.
In the recording studio a few weeks later Julie is reunited with Mike. Babs get their record away to Holland and the offers start flooding in.

Article Title
Archaeological Testing Within the Southeast Corner of the Plaza at Mission Espada, San Antonio, Bexar County, Texas
In October 1990, pursuant to a contract with the National Park Service, the Center for Archaeological Research, The University of Texas at San Antonio, initiated test investigations in the southeast interior corner of the Mission Espada compound. The study focused on examining structural foundations and determining the depth of Mexican and Spanish colonial ground surfaces in the area.
Colonial period foundations were discovered under the south wall, as well as the probable original construction period surface and footing trench. 'IWentieth-century foundations were found in the unit excavated under the east wall. These likely continue south to the north wall of the room where the bastion is located.

This site is intended for young people aged 11 – 18 and not all the content may be suitable for younger viewers
During the COVID-19 pandemic - for local information please visit www.burgesshill.gov.uk or facebook.com/BurgessHillTownCouncil
At least 60 minutes (1 hour) of physical activity every day, which should be a mix of moderate-intensity aerobic activity, such as fast walking, and vigorous-intensity aerobic activity, such as running.
On three days a week, these activities should involve muscle-strengthening activities, such as push-ups, and bone-strengthening activities, such as running, skipping, gymnastics, martial arts and football.
What counts as moderate-intensity aerobic activity?
Examples of activities that require moderate effort for most young people include:
• walking to school/college
• playing in the playground
• skateboarding
• rollerblading
• walking the dog
• riding a bike on level ground or ground with few hills
Moderate-intensity aerobic activity means you're working hard enough to raise your heart rate and break a sweat. One way to tell if you're working at a moderate intensity is if you can still talk but you can't sing the words to a song.
Don't sit for too long!!
Children and young people should minimise the amount of time they spend sitting watching TV, playing computer games and travelling by car when they could walk or cycle instead.
What counts as vigorous-intensity aerobic activity?
Examples of activities that require vigorous effort for most young people include:
• playing chase
• energetic dancing
• aerobics
• running
• gymnastics
• playing football
• martial arts, such as karate
• riding a bike fast or on hilly ground
Vigorous-intensity aerobic activity means you're breathing hard and fast, and your heart rate has gone up quite a bit. If you're working at this level, you won't be able to say more than a few words without pausing for a breath.
What counts as muscle-strengthening activity?
Healthy weight
Children and young people who are overweight can improve their health by meeting the activity guidelines, even if they don't lose weight.
To reach a healthy weight, they may need to do more than the recommended 60 minutes of activity a day and also make changes to their diet.
For young people, muscle-strengthening activities are those that require them to lift their own body weight or to work against a resistance, such as climbing a rope.
Examples of muscle-strengthening activities suitable for children include:
• games such as tug of war
• swinging on playground equipment bars
• gymnastics
• rope or tree climbing
• sit-ups
• sports such as gymnastics, football, basketball and tennis
Examples of muscle-strengthening activities suitable for young people include:
• sit-ups
• push-ups
• gymnastics
• resistance exercises with exercise bands, weight machines or hand-held weights
• rock climbing
• sports such as football, basketball and tennis
What counts as bone-strengthening activity?
Bone-strengthening activities produce an impact or tension force on the bones that promotes bone growth and strength.
Examples of bone-strengthening activities suitable for children include:
• activities that require children to lift their body weight or to work against a resistance
• jumping and climbing activities, combined with the use of playground equipment and toys
• games such as hop-scotch
• skipping with a rope
• walking
• running
• sports such as gymnastics, football, basketball and tennis
• martial arts
Examples of bone-strengthening activities suitable for young people include:
• dance
• aerobics
• weight-training
• water-based activities
• running
• sports such as gymnastics, football, netball, hockey, badminton and tennis
• skipping with a rope
• martial arts
Children and young people should take part in activities that are appropriate for their age and stage of development.

In today's competitive lending environment, lenders must be able to reduce origination costs, offer innovative products & services and retain profits. This webinar series will help you navigate the often complex mortgage regulations while remaining profitable.
QuestSoft has partnered with industry experts to provide you with free informational webinars that help you streamline the compliance process and focus on the bottom line.
Part 1: Mortgage Compliance in the Digital Era
[Archived 9/6/18]
Changes in origination technology are occurring overnight in the banking and loan origination sectors. Borrowers are demanding better processes, lenders are seeking processes that reduce costs, and loan origination companies are fighting for the
best producers by introducing new digital tools. Meanwhile, investors are demanding source data and agencies are promising Day 1 Certainty™ for those that can provide it. How will you adapt?
Part 2: The Truth About Non-QM Lending[Archived 9/20/18]
Recently, there has been a surge of non-QM lending as lenders look to offer alternative products to qualified borrowers. However, regulatory scrutiny, documentation, investor requirements and underwriting criteria have prevented some lenders from offering non-QMs.
Part 3: S.2155 Implementation — The Latest HMDA Changes[Archived 10/03/18]
On March 22, 2018, the House of Representatives passed Senate Bill S.2155, also known as the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act. While the bill brings about many positive changes, there has been confusion as to how these amendments will take effect and how you should prepare.
Part 4: Why CRA Data and Analysis is More Important Than Ever[Archived 11/07/18]
The Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) has recently been overshadowed by HMDA changes and regulatory relief activities, but it's coming back into the crosshairs. In 2017, the U.S. Department of the Treasury committed to "comprehensively assess how the CRA could be improved" in a report to the President. In April 2018, Treasury submitted their findings and recommendations to the OCC, FRB, and FDIC. Since that time, the prudential regulators have made public announcements regarding changes to CRA.
Part 5: Expanded HMDA = Expanded Fair Lending Risk[Archived 3/05/19]
It is more important than ever that you understand everything about your lending activities – who, what, where, when, why and how! Expanded data submitted to regulators means analysis will be performed without your involvement – including performance comparisons to peers and credit needs assessments. Even if you are an institution that is exempt from the expanded data requirements, your performance will be compared to lenders that are not exempt. It is more important than ever that you understand the entire lending process in order to effectively manage fair lending risk.

Fearless Fitness Weekly Update 4/4: How Fit Are YOUR feet?
Fearless Fitness Tip Of the Week: How Fit Are Your FEET?
The foot has 26 bones, 33 joints, more than 100 ligaments and more than a dozen muscles. Do you give them the same attention as you give your OTHER fit parts?
Most exercisers are working up a sweat for one reason: to keep the body healthy and fit from head to toe. But if you're fitness focus is constantly above the ankles, your entire body is missing out. The body is a linkage system (remember the KINETIC CHAIN?) and the FEET are the foundation of that system. If the muscles of the feet aren't working properly to hold the feet and ankles in correct alignment, it's a good chance that nothing above the feet is properly aligned either. This results in poor body mechanics and puts extra stress on the joints during movement. The feet can support three times your body weight when walking, seven times your body weight when running, and up to ten times your body weight when jumping. That's a lot of impact on the feet! Over time, a foot misalignment or poor muscle use can result in foot, ankle, knee, hip, sacro-illiac joint, lower-mid-upper back, shoulder, and neck pain. Seventy-five percent of Americans experience foot health problems. Don't become one of them. Make foot care a regular part of your routine and stride strong every time you hit the ground.
Before you develop a personal foot health care program, it's important to get to know your feet first. Feet are a good indicator of overall health. How well do you know yours? Pay attention and notice the following:
- How do you wear out your shoes?
- Where do you typically carry the weight on your feet?
- Where do you have calluses if any?
- What direction do your toes face?
- Are the bones of your feet are stacked correctly?
- Do your shoes fit?
- How old are your shoes?
- Do you replace them at least every 6 months?
- What does your footprint look like?
- How often to your feet ache?
- How often do you have foot cramps?
- Do you have any recurring knee, hip, or back pain?
- Can you move all the joints of your toes like you move your fingers—freely and easily?
- When you exercise, do you ever do anything specifically for your toes and feet?
Everyone's feet are unique and building an awareness of how your feet function will help you create personal foot care program. Your feet work hard everyday and sometimes they pay the consequences. The following is a list of common foot problems:
- Plantar fasciitis (heel pain). Plantar Fasciitis is a painful condition caused by overuse of the plantar fascia or arch tendon of the foot. Plantar fasciitis commonly causes a sharp heel pain that usually occurs with the very first steps in the morning. Once the foot limbers up, the pain of plantar fasciitis normally decreases, but it may return after long periods of standing or after getting up from a seated position. Plantar fasciitis is particularly common in runners, dancers, and sports that involve jumping. It is also found in people who are overweight, women who are pregnant and those who wear shoes with inadequate support. Treatment involves stretching, strengthening, and resting the feet, calves, and Achilles tendon.
- Stress Fractures. Stress fractures are tiny cracks in a bone. Stress fractures are caused by the repetitive application of force, or overuse, such as repeatedly jumping or running long distances. Stress fractures are most common in the weight-bearing bones of the lower leg and foot. Track and field, basketball, dance, aerobics, and football athletes are particularly susceptible to stress fractures, but anyone can experience a stress fracture. If you're starting a new exercise or running program you are at high risk if you do too much too soon. Treatment for stress fractures typically requires rest and time off from activity.
- Calluses. Calluses are thick, hardened layers of skin that develop when your skin tries to protect itself against friction and pressure. Change footwear to avoid pressure or regularly file calluses down if they start to hurt.
- Foot Cramps/Tingling/Numbness. Foot cramps can be caused by a weakness and lack of flexibility or mobility in the foot. Improper or poorly fit footwear can also cause foot cramps, tingling, or numbness.
- Athlete's Foot. The athlete's foot fungus thrives in moist, dark places (like your shoes). Take wet socks off immediately after workouts and wear shower shoes in public showers. Always dry your feet thoroughly and see your doctor if you regularly experience itching or burning sensations in your feet.
- Blisters. Blisters can become painful and affect your ability in all the sports you love. Make sure to wear moisture wicking socks (instead of cotton) and well fitting shoes to prevent blisters. If you do get blisters, cover them with gauze pads instead of bandages.
Fearless Fitness Challenge Of The Week: Give your Feet a WORKOUT!
A well-balanced workout program and proper hygiene can help you avoid the above conditions from derailing you from your fitness routine. But it also helps to make foot and ankle specific stretching and strengthening a regular part of your weekly regimen. I challenge you to take care of you're toes with the following exercises. Aim for three times a week, before or after your workout.
- Toe grip (to strengthen the foot muscles to improve balance): Drop a towel on the floor and use your toes to grip and move it towards you on the floor. Hold for 10 seconds, then release. Repeat five times with each foot.
- Toe extension (to strengthen and support the muscles, which in turn will protect the bones of the feet): Wrap an elastic band around all five toes. Expand your toes and hold for five seconds; release. Repeat five times on each foot.
- Toe Stretch: Put foam toe separators (easy to find at the drugstore in the nail polish isle) between your toes and squeeze for five seconds. Repeat 10 times.
- Calf raise (to strengthen the feet and the calves and improve balance): Stand near a counter or a doorway and hold on lightly for balance. Balance on one foot and rise up onto your toes. Hold for 10 seconds, then lower. Repeat 10 times on each foot.
- Calf stretch (to keep the Achilles tendons and the plantar fascia from getting tight): Sit with one leg stretched out in front of you and wrap a towel around the ball of the foot. Pull the towel back gently until you feel a stretch in the arch of the foot and the calf. Hold for 10 seconds; release. Repeat five times on each leg.
- Plantar Fascia Stretch: With your knees on the floor, tuck your toes and sit back on your heels. Hold this position for 30-60 seconds multiple times a day.
Here are a few other tips to help your feet feel strong and fabulous:
- As soon as you're done with your workout, get out of your athletic shoes and into roomier shoes to accommodate the swelling that's happened.
- Soak you're feet in cool water or an ice bath to bring down the inflammation or swelling from your workout.
- Give your self a foot massage. Roll the plantar fascia muscle (arch of the foot) with a golf or tennis ball. Or sweet-talk your significant other to give your toes a quick rub.
- Replace your workout shoes often. Get new trainers at least every six months. Mark the date of purchase on the heel and track your training. Be sure to watch the wear of the shoe, if the outer sole is worn all the way through, it's time for a new pair.
- Give you're toes some fresh air. Take off your shoes to be barefoot whenever you can.
- Train your balance. To prevent ankle sprains and to improve proprioception, make balance and stability exercises part of your regular routine.
Want happy feet for life? Get to know your feet and follow these simple stretching and strengthening exercises. Take good care of your ankles, arches, and toes. It can be done in a few minutes a day and just might make the difference in keeping your feet pain and injury free. Exercise specific to foot care can go a long way towards improving all aspects of a healthy lifestyle. Start from the ground up – work your feet for a maximum body benefit!

December 29, 1966
|We have 3 images of Dark Shadows 139
Laura continues to play with and against Roger and Burke while she gains an ally in Victoria, who agrees to help her win over David.
Synopsis Edit
- My name is Victoria Winters. There are very few lights burning at Collinwood for it is late at night. But lights in the Caretaker's Cottage are still burning.
Roger catches a Burke and Laura in a near-tryst and threatens to kill Burke with a gun.
Act I
Burke challenges Roger to shoot him and he does. The shot hits the ceiling. Laura scolds them for behaving the way they did 10 years ago. Laura begs Burke to leave; Roger vows to kill Burke. Laura tells Roger that she's only being pleasant to Burke, she hasn't incriminated herself or Roger. She says the accident is in the past, with which she's not concerned, after Roger says she perjured herself. Roger orders her to be loyal to him. Roger questions David's paternity as a parting shot. Alone again, Laura moves to the window and calls to David in his dreams.
Act II
Victoria wakes David at 10:30AM, and he tells her he had a fitful night filled with the Fire-Dream again. Roger comes in to take David to see his mother, but David refuses. David is being obstinate in Roger's view, while he is sublimating fear of rejection in Victoria's opinion. Roger tells Victoria of the fire in Phoenix. Victoria has a plan to get David and Laura together.
Act III
Victoria goes to the Cottage and tells Laura about David's feelings about her. Laura admits to loving nice fires; they're soothing to her. Laura wants to win David's love, without forcing it on him. Victoria plans an accidental meeting between Laura and David. Supposedly, Victoria and David go for a walk every day from 4:30 to 5:00 after he does his homework. Victoria wants to meet at the greenhouse; Laura would prefer Widows' Hill, where she took him as a little boy to watch the ships. Nobody knows how much Laura needs David.
Act IV
Victoria takes David to Widows' Hill. David likes to play on the edge of the cliff and wants a pet seagull. They watch ships, where David tells Victoria of his dream to hop an ocean liner and leave forever. Laura asks him if he wants to go to Madagascar, of which they spoke when David was younger. In fright, David trips and falls near the cliff.
Memorable quotes Edit
- Roger: (to Laura) The happiest day of my life will be when you take my son and go, if David is my son!
Dramatis personae Edit
- ← Diana Millay as Laura Collins →
- ← Mitchell Ryan as Burke Devlin →
- ← Louis Edmonds as Roger Collins →
- ← David Henesy as David Collins →
- ← Alexandra Moltke as Victoria Winters →
Background information and notes Edit
Production Edit
Story Edit
- Laura asks Victoria for a lock of David's hair. She keeps a lock of David's baby hair in a locket, a Collins family heirloom given to her by Roger on their wedding night, which she cherished in the sanitarium.
- David's favorite color is blue.
- TIMELINE: Day 24 begins, and will end in episode 140. 10:30am: David awakens. It was last night when Laura moved into the cottage (which occurred in episode 135). Victoria takes David for a walk between 4:30pm and 5pm.
Bloopers and continuity errors Edit
- The gun that Roger enters the cottage with at the end of the previous episode is a twin barrel with an over/under design. The gun he has at the beginning of this episode is a bolt action rifle.
- Vicki arrives at Laura's cottage with a breakfast tray, and as she walks in to set it down on the table a camera swings in from left of screen , momentarily blocking her face from view.

January 26, 2017
The Boston Tax Help Coalition will inaugurate its 16th season this Friday (Jan. 27) with an event at Dot House Health featuring remarks from Mayor Martin Walsh. The coalition provides free tax preparation workshops and one-on-one credit- and wealth-building sessions for middle- to low-income residents— or those earning less than $54,000 a year. The event, which will run from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m., will emphasize how eligible residents can receive full amounts for earned income credits and correctly apply for financial aid.
Michelle Nadow, the president and CEO of Dot House Health, will lead Friday's program.
Dorchester residents, she says, have an unprecedented opportunity to get the refunds they deserve by working with one of the 300 IRS-certified volunteers that the coalition has in its network. "They really open up the conversations around financial capacity building, and help people start building their assets," said Nadow, who added that all of the advisors must be qualified, undergo a rigorous two-day training process, and take an ethics pledge.
Mimi Turchinetz, the director of the Boston Tax Help Coalition, said that the services are offered at no cost. "Our tax preparers are providing as good or better of a service than the paid preparers," she said in an interview. "We're a positive alternative to the paid preparers."
Beyond Dot House, the coalition, which is managed out of the Mayor's Financial Empowerment office, works with a cross-section of nonprofits, including Codman Square Tech Center, St. Mary Center for Women and Children, the ABCD Family Service Centers in Dorchester and Mattapan and the Menino Library in Hyde Park, which will offer Haitian language translation. All of the centers will be open into April, serving approximately 13,000 Boston residents.
More than 35 sites will open up across Boston over the next week, 13 of which will have financial check-up services—five more than last year. Turchinetz hopes that the hard-working and deserving families and individuals who cannot afford private tax services will utilize this program.
"People shouldn't have to pay for their own money," she said. "We can get people looking at their credit report, immediately, and start making decisions in order to develop good credit right away."
Dot House Health's Nadow attests to the strength of the programs being offered, and sees the partnership with Boston Tax Help Coalition as an organic extension of Dot House's mission. "We view health very broadly," she said. "By supporting people's economic health, we're working to support their overall health."
