A high wind advisory is in effect until 4 PM tomorrow afternoon has already done some serious damage through the Columbia Basin and The Lower Yakima Valley.
About 800 customers are currently without power in Prosser according to the Benton PUD. Adams County Sheriff's Department is also reporting power outages with no certain time for power to be restored.
You can always get updated power outages with the Benton PUD here.
We've also had some road closures due to high wind, accidents and downed power poles.
Here is what we currently have closed:
OR11 is closed between Pendleton and Milton-Freewater due to crashes and windblown debris in the roadway.
OR 204 is also closed between Weston and Elgin due to high wind hazards. High winds are creating hazardous conditions throughout the region, including blowing dust and debris, blown over trucks, down power lines, etc.
Downed power line has forced the closure of I-84 between Pendleton and La Grande. There is no estimated time to reopen the road.
According to WSDOT highway I-82 eastbound south of Kennewick is closed due to a multi-vehicle collision and low visibility. The estimated reopening is currently unknown.
That is just a few closures and power outages. It looks like it's going to a windy Sunday and Monday so be prepared in case of more road closures and power outages.

Professor Grant Jordan takes a look at the Scottish Government's strategy for dealing with cancer diagnosis and treatment
AS cabinet secretary for health and wellbeing, Nicola Sturgeon formally launched the Detect Cancer Early (DCE) programme in February 2012. The project covered breast, colorectal and lung cancers, and had a legitimate theory of causation.
It was based on the (then) uncontested fact that early diagnosis increases the opportunity for successful treatment, and that the earlier presentation of patients with symptoms meant treatments could start earlier. The new Beating Cancer: Ambition and Action policy statement from the government as recently as March 2016 implies that the DCE campaign was a success.
It claimed that "this ambitious programme aims to improve one-year and five-year survival rates … by actively addressing diagnoses and treatment at an early stage". Detect Cancer Early had clear goals – "to increase the proportion of people diagnosed and treated in the first stage of breast, colorectal and lung cancer by 25 per cent by 2014/2015".
This was optimistic, but it could be evaluated as it had built a wonderful database – though cracks are appearing as some authorities are belatedly trying to alter their submissions. Nonetheless, the dataset now allows the sombre conclusion that, well-intentioned though it was, it is not working as hoped.
The latest DCE figure (July 2016) repeated the narrative of underperformance from the previous years.
The government had set a target of a 25 per cent increase over the baseline figures by the end of 2015, but a good idea simply did not work out. The issue is a reluctance to concede that the impact was a dismal failure by its own very explicit standards.
The implication is therefore that a new policy is urgently required. The cancer charities that dutifully lined up behind the government at the launch need to show some independent thinking.
Current health secretary Shona Robison was quoted on the BBC website saying: "The figures released today show that over 25 per cent of all breast, lung and bowel cancers diagnosed in Scotland during 2014 and 2015 were detected at 'stage one' – an increase of eight per cent in the last five years."
The actual improvement was from 23.2 per cent to 25.1 per cent. The increase is eight per cent of the base figure, but her unadorned version perhaps implies 17 per cent to 25 per cent. Moreover, at least some of the increase in stage 1, and other stages, is most likely due to better recording of the data and the reduction of the undisaggregated 'not known' category.
Squeezing the 'unknowns' meant there were more than 800 cases going into boosting the classified categories. The report acknowledged that Scotland as a whole, and six of the 11 individual mainland NHS Boards, have shown an increase in stage 1 diagnosis, but for NHS Forth Valley there has been no change while NHS Grampian, NHS Highland, NHS Borders and NHS Dumfries and Galloway have shown a decrease, despite increased funding.
The DCE campaign was a realistic diagnosis that was unfortunately undelivered. The mature response is to look at new ideas, not to twist and turn to defend the project. It seems an eminently suitable target for the health and sports committee. It could, for a start, try to work out what is new money in the Beating Cancer agenda and what is a continuation of existing policy or the funds to cover previously announced changes.
There are great things happening in cancer treatment, but diagnosis is very imperfect. The current government obsession is that the variability is a social class matter, but why then is NHS Grampian so consistently below average?
There are shocking disparities in the survivability of some cancers such as breast and malignant melanoma and lung, brain and pancreas. What is the plan to identify non-smoking lung cancer patients? A rote conclusion in the surgery that a cough is "probably asthma" does not match the 'world class ambitions' embedded in minister- speak.
Are there funds to allow diagnostic scanning? A male with lung cancer has a 9.5 per cent probability of surviving five years. A breast cancer patient has an 82.8 per cent probability (Cancer in Scotland, Information Services Division, November 2015, p17).
Politically there isn't even recognition of an issue, far less resolution. The car sticker should be 'Diagnose Late: Die Early'. It is the Scottish way.

The Horizon 2020 EU project CO2SMOS aims to develop a platform of technologies to transform the carbon emissions generated by bio-based industries into a set o high added-value chemicals with direct use as intermediates for bio-based products. These molecules will be validated as renewable CO2-based commodities for the ormulation of high-performance biopolymers and renewabñe chemicals. This will help achieve zero or even negative carbon emissions as well as replacing fossil-based chemicals with more sustainable ones using renewable sources and CO2 as main raw materials.
This webinar aims to publicly present the project, its objectives and the expected benefits of CO2SMOS yo external stakeholders. The event will be an occasion to discuss with external stakeholders and gather insights/feedback from them to guide CO2SMOS research and development activities.

Black Friday Giveaway launches at #ElectricAvenue pop-up shop to give unwanted electrical items a new home and inspire residents to be e-waste savvy.
Pre-loved lamps, keyboards, blenders and slow cookers are just some of the items up for grabs in a new #ElectricAvenue pop-up store designed to help tackle electrical waste (e-waste) launching in the Galleries, Bristol this Black Friday (26 November).
The Black Friday Giveaway will hand out electrical items recently donated by households across Bristol which have been cleaned, repaired, safety checked and are now looking for a new home.
The pop-up shop will open for 10 days from 26 November until 5 December. Customers will be able to take an item home for free and are also being encouraged to donate a working electrical item they no longer want which will be re-homed. These can be taken to the store directly or dropped off at the Reuse Shop in Avonmouth. Anyone who donates an electrical item they no longer want or need is entered into a prize draw to win a £50 voucher for the Reuse Shop.
The #ElectricAvenue campaign is a pilot project being run by environmental charity Hubbub and Bristol Waste Company and funded by Ecosurety. It aims to show consumers that second-hand electricals still have value and highlight the environmental impact of e-waste – one of the world’s fastest growing and most toxic waste streams.
Only 20% of e-waste is currently recycled globally and a recent report revealed in October that waste electronics in 2021 will weigh more than the Great Wall of China. After Norway, the UK produces the second most electrical waste per person in the world.
As well as extending the life of electrical items, the project is keen to highlight the value of materials they contain, such as metals which are finite resources and should be recovered in the recycling process and not put in general waste streams.
Whilslis, Co-founder of Hubbub said “Whilst it’s easy to be lured by Black Friday deals, our electrifying new pop-up shop aims to challenge the need to buy brand new and shines a spotlight on the value of electrical items that are often disposed of when they’re no longer needed. Many of us havut what to do with electrical waste and signpost local services which can ensure they are either reused, recycled or disposed of responsibly.”
Gwen Frost from Bristol Waste said “It’s time to turn Black Friday, green. Choosing pre-loved items isn’t just good for your pocket, it’s good for the environment too, saving valuable resources from being chucked away.
“Not knowing how to fix a broken electrical item can stump many of us, but with a little help from a local organisation, you could bring it back to life for yourself, or for a new home. You can donate items at our Recycling Centres, take them to a repair café, or look up how to do a quick fix online. And if it really is beyond repair, leave it out in an untied bag with your recycling and we’ll make sure those precious materials get turned into something new.”
Councillor Nicola Beech, Cabinet Member with responsibility for Climate, Ecology, Waste and Energy at Bristol City Council, said “Bristol is on a mission to reduce the amount of waste we produce as a city. Together, in the past year, we’ve prevented 175,000 tonnes of waste going into landfill, with more than 84,000 tonnes of waste being recycled or composted.
“Electric Avenue is a great way to reduce electrical waste and increase digital access for those who need it, including families and schools. The exciting pop-up shop will find new homes for Bristol’s electrical waste and get us all thinking about how we can reuse more and waste less. Please, have a search at home to uncover forgotten electricals that can be put to work again and help Bristol Waste nothing.”
Stephanie Housty from Ecosurety said “We are very excited to launch this pilot campaign in Ecosurety’s home city of Bristol. The growing amount of e-waste is still a relatively unknown issue for most citizens as other waste materials such as plastic have been in the spotlight in the last few years. We know consumers want to do their bit to save the planet, but they don’t always know that disposing properly of their old electricals is one of the actions that can make a difference. With Electric Avenue we encourage citizens to move up the e-waste hierarchy by promoting repair, reuse or donation of their unwanted electricals, before hoarding, recycling, or worse, throwing them away.

If you’re like me, your Christmas traditions include watching “Elf” every year. In my family, “Elf,” starring Will Ferrell, has become as much a Christmas classic as “Christmas Story” and “It’s a Wonderful Life.” The film is funny, spirited and, believe it or not, chock-full of useful advice that you can use in your next disability insurance client meeting. Merry Christmas!
When working with a referral: “SANTAAAA! Oh my God! Here? I know him!”
If you’re meeting with a prospect who was referred by an existing client, don’t be afraid to mention your mutual acquaintance. You don’t need to go into specifics about the client’s insurance policy, but it might make the prospect feel at ease if you mention how you know their friend, what the process was like for him or her, and how it might differ for the new prospect.
Mannerisms: “I just like to smile. Smiling’s my favorite.”
When meeting with clients in person, remember that a smile goes a long way. No one wants to work with an agent who looks like they’re having a bad day or who doesn’t seem genuinely kind. Don’t be a cotton-headed ninny-muggins.
Getting to know each other: “Buddy the Elf, what’s your favorite color?
Don’t be afraid to get to know your clients. Be sure to ask them more than their height, weight and medical history. Ask about their families, their holidays or, if you become desperate, what their favorite color is. If your client wanted to work with a robot, they wouldn’t have agreed to meet in person.
Discussing the plan: “I planned out our whole day. First we’ll make snow angels for two hours, and then we’ll go ice skating, and then we’ll eat a whole roll of Toll House cookie dough as fast as we can, and then, to finish, we’ll snuggle.”
Remember, it’s good to have a plan of action for every client meeting, but that doesn’t mean you should overwhelm your client. Consider providing an agenda, briefly outlining what you’ll discuss that day, or explaining how the whole policy process will work. Just don’t confuse (or scare) your client with your plan of action.
Discussing their medical records: “You sit on a throne of lies.”
Remember when Buddy called out the fake Santa at the mall for being a liar and a fake? Remember how crazy and out-of-touch with reality he seemed? Yeah, don’t do or say anything like that to your client, even if they’ve lied on their application and you recently found out about their numerous medical issues from the underwriter. Your clients should never feel attacked, even if they’re in the wrong. Instead, try to understand where they’re coming from and gently express your concerns.
Giving bad news (option one): “So, good news….I saw a dog today.”
Sometimes you won’t necessarily have good news for your client, especially if their policy is going to have exclusions. Try to preface your conversation with whatever good news you do have to soften the blow.
Giving bad news (option number two): In response to “I’m not an elf”: “Of course you’re not. You’re six-foot-three and you’ve had a beard since you were fifteen.”
If your client’s policy comes back approved other than applied, and you suspected that ruling all along, you better have been honest with your client from the beginning. Explain to your client that their previous health issues or income is likely to cause some concern with the carrier. It’s better for you to prepare them with the obvious expectations than for them to feel blindsided and angry.
Giving bad news (option number three): “I’m sorry I ruined your lives and crammed eleven cookies into the VCR.”
If you did something wrong on your client’s policy, application or delivery requirements, and it truly was your fault, you should be honest with your client. However, if you follow up your apology with “and crammed eleven cookies into your VCR,” you might be able to ease the tension. Don’t quote me on that, though…it’s just a suggestion. (Should you ever use this strategy, please let me know. I’d love to hear how it turned out.)
When your client’s policy is approved as applied: “The best way to spread Christmas cheer, is singing loud for all to hear.”
If your client’s experience has been top notch, ask them to refer you to their friends, family and coworkers. One of the best ways to get an influx of new prospects is for your satisfied clients to spread the word about their experience.

I just had professional pictures taken of my kids in February. At these ages (Morgan 8, Brandon 4, and Catherine 18 months) you never know what you are going to get. I told the photographer to just take anything and everything. I am not a huge fan of "look at me and smile" pictures, I much rather just capture the feeling of the moment. This picture was taken at the end of the session, they were all grumpy and tired and to pep them up I gave them all a sucker and asked them to sit on the stairs. This beauty unfolded. For those that do not know my children, it image captures the essence of who they all are at this moment in their lives.
I used a 8×10 inch canvas as the base of my project. I have never done a canvas before, but I approached it as though it was a layout just in a different size. I started out by painting the canvas with acrylic paints in tones, of green, blue, yellow, brown, and beige. Painting a layer letting it dry then painting another layer, not full coats but enough to see the colors. I then added texture by using stencils from my Kreaxion punch 311 with thte A insert from Just Imagine and molding paste and using spray mists and more paint. I also used Kreaxions punch 923 as an edge punch with the A insert on the paper.
I added in layers of Prima flowers between the wonderful papers. I added in blotches of paint and sprays of mists as I added in more layers. Here you can also see a "key" chipboard sticker from tucked into the layers on the left and also a wonderful yellow puffy sticker butterfly from the right.
Paper House also has these wonderful new canvas stickers. I used a canvas sticker for my title for the project, as it fit so perfectly "Rooted in Family". I added in some chipboard with similar swirls to the canvas sticker and painted it to match the same color brown.

Lovebirds are very social and form deep bonds with their own.
There are several species of lovebirds, such as the genus Agapornis. But the most commonly found species in the pet trade include peach faced lovebirds, or Agapornis roseicollis, masked lovebirds (Agapornis personata) and Fischer's lovebirds (Agapornis fischeri). There are many color mutations found in peach faced lovebirds and several mutations in some of the other species, so there are many color variations of lovebirds available. Lovebirds are small, compact parrots about 5-6 inches in length and can live up to 15 years or more.
Temperament
Very active, curious, and playful, lovebirds pack a lot of personality into a small package. They are also feisty little birds. They are very social and form deep bonds with their owners and are sometimes very cuddly birds, but their intense personalities can also make them prone to nipping and territorial aggressiveness and jealousy. Hand-raised babies make the best pets. Some experts believe that females are more prone to jealousy and territoriality than males.
Find a Hand-Raised Baby
Hand-raised babies definitely make the best pets. Still, regular handling and training are needed to maintain a tame lovebird (so a hand raised baby that hasn't been handled much as it gets older may be hard to hand tame again). If getting an older lovebird try to find one that was hand raised and has been handled regularly and has some training. Older lovebirds that are not hand tamed may require a great deal of patience for taming.
Social Needs - A Common Myth
A common myth about keeping lovebirds is that they should always be kept in pairs. If you have more than one lovebird they may become more deeply bonded to each other that to you. A single lovebird will do well, as long as it gets the social interaction, contact, affection, and attention that it needs from its human family memb, though.
Vocalizations and Speech
While not as loud as some larger parrots, lovebirds can produce a lout overly loud, but they do like to chatter. As a general rule, they are not known for their ability to mimic speech or sounds, although there are exceptions. Some say females are more apt to mimic sounds or speech than males.
Housing Lovebirds
As a bare minimum, I would recommend a cage at least 2 feet wide by 2 feet long (and 2 feet tall), but a larger cage is definitely better (with the length being relatively more important than the height). Bars should be no more than 1/2 to 5/8 inches apart, and should be oriented horizontally to allow the birds climb the sides of the cage. Avoid round cages. Provide a variety of perch sizes (including natural branches if possible) as this is healthier for a caged bird's feet.
Feeding Lovebirds
Lovebirds should be fed a variety of foods. A good pellet diet can form the basis of the diet, supplemented by a variety of fresh foods and some seeds (seeds should make up less than 25 percent of the total diet). A cuttlebone can be provided for extra calcium.
Toys
Lovebirds are quite aggressive chewers, which must be kept in mind when choosing toys. Make sure there are no small parts that can be chewed off and ingested, and no clips, loose strings, or other parts in which your bird could get its beak, feet, or head trapped. Safe toys include wood, sisal, leather, acrylic, and rawhide toys (including hanging toys as long as they are not long enough to strangle your bird), bells, and ladders. As well, household items such as the cardboard tubes from paper towel rolls, paper cups, ink-free cardboard, and dried pasta shapes may also be used by your lovebird. Lovebirds are very active and playful so it is a good idea to have lots of toys on hand to rotate through the cage to keep them occupied. All toys including their hanging devices should be zinc and lead free. Cotton ropes are good too, but may be best used only under supervision since threads can come loose and entangle birds easily.

Despite wearing a full replica police uniform — complete with tie, bomber jacket and trooper hat — Kyle Rittenhouse looked a lot more like a Halloween trick-or-treater than an actual cop in the photo taken in 2017.
After all, Rittenhouse was not even 15 years old when he posed for the picture that remained for years on the Facebook page of a "public safety cadet program" in Chicago's far northern suburbs.
And he still looked younger than his actual age this week when the 17-year-old from Antioch, Ill., was arrested in connection with two fatal shootings in Kenosha, Wis.
Police said two people — both area residents, one 26 and the other 36 —were killed and another was injured in the shootings Tuesday. It was the third night of civil unrest sparked by a white police officer shooting a Black man repeatedly in the back at point-blank range.
Antioch pe Detention Center without bond, according to court records.
He is wanted in Kenosha County on accusations of first-degree intentional homicide after having "fled the stwyer for the Lake County Public Defender's Office, which is listed as representing Rittenhouse, declined to comment.
In addition to his participation as a youth police cadet in Lake County, his social media posts showed Rittenhouse was a staunch law-enforcement supporter who had posted tributes to officers killed in the line of duty in Chicago and the northern suburbs.
Another social media account that appeared to belong to Rittenhouse suggests he was also a supporter of President Trump. The TikTok account, with just 25 followers, read "Trump 2020" with a U.S. flag next to it, and, "Bruh I'm just tryna be famous."
In one video recorded in Kenosha before the shootings and posted on social media, a teen who identifies himself as "Kyle" explained that he went to the center of the city on Tuesday evening with the intention of assisting police in dealing with rioters.
Protests and looting had marked the first couple of days after the shooting on Sunday of Jacob Blake. Blake's family members say he was left paralyzed by the gunshots fired at him as he tried to get into his car where his three children were sitting. Video showed police officers yelling at him with weapons drawn as Blake walked toward the car.
There were more clashes on Tuesday evening in downtown Kenosha, with police firing tear gas at a crowd that shot off fireworks, threw bottles and smashed car windows, as seen on videos recorded that night.
But the fatal confrontations came after the crowd near the country courthouse was dispersed from the area.
A series of viral videos appear to document several dramatic moments Tuesday and early Wednesday that allegedly involve Rittenhouse.
"We don't have non-lethal" weapons
In a light-green T-shirt and gripping a long-barreled gun, a teen who appears to be Rittenhouse spoke to a man recording a video at one point before the shootings. He assured the man that he and other armed men alongside him were carrying lethal weapons.
"We don't have nonlethal," the teenager said, wearing a baseball cap backward and adding he had just "got pepper-sprayed by a person in the crowd."
He then abruptly curtailed his comments for the camera, assuming the voice of a polite but firm police officer to ask people in front of him to step aside for what he described as emergency vehicles.
The teen in the video looks especially small among the other armed civilians and officers.
According to court records, Rittenhouse is 5 feet, 4 inches tall, weighs 150 pounds and is white.
In another video recorded before the shootings, a teen who appears to be Rittenhouse describes himself as a member of a local militia that was effectively protecting businesses in Kenosha.
A third video again shows the teen armed with a gun and strolling among what appear to be uniformed police officers.
In that video, the law-enforcement personnel thank the teen and others in plainclothes and toss them bottles of water from a circular door that pops open from the top of an armored vehicle.
"We appreciate you guys; we really do," a man says to the group through a speaker on the armored truck.
Protecting a city from "evil thugs"
Citing the disturbances, some people issued social media calls Tuesday for armed "patriots" to come with their weapons to protect property in Kenosha, where buildings had burned the past two nights.
A Facebook page titled "Kenosha Guard" contained multiple vows to protect the lakeside city in a strong show of force, on behalf of what they described as outnumbered police. The page has since been taken down.
"Any patriots willing to take up arms and defend out (sic) City tonight from the evil thugs?" according to one post Tuesday on the Kenosha Guard page. "Nondoubt (sic) they are currently planning on the next part of the City to burn tonight!"
The group planned to convene at 8 p.m. at Kenosha's central park for an event dubbed "Armed Citizens to Protect our Lives and Property." Their presence was to last through the night.
A curfew had been set in the city for 8 p.m.
Other members of the militia "locked down" entrances to a sprawling subdivision of single-family homes west of downtown called WhiteCaps, according to the Facebook page.
The page also displayed an arrest warrant and criminal complaint against Blake that were issued before the Kenosha officer shot him, with the comment, "Seems like a nice guy."
The Kenosha Guard page boasted of news coverage in the "national" media — specifically, the far-right website Infowars.
Many Facebook users expressed deep interest in answering the Kenosha Guard's call to arms.
Another man, though, merely advised the group of a rumored plot to attack the Mars Cheese Castle, the popular Dairy State tourist site near the interstate highway between Chicago and Milwaukee.
On Wednesday morning, a statement on the Kenosha Guard page read, "We are unaware if the armed citizen was answering the Kenosha Guard Militia's call to arms. Just like with the shooting of Jacob Blake, we need all the facts and evidence to come out before we make a judgement. God Bless and stay safe Kenosha!"
In a statement to NPR late Wednesday, Facebook said it was removing Rittenhouse's accounts from both Facebook and Instagram, as well as the Kenosha Guard's Facebook page.
"At this time, we have not found evidence on Facebook that suggests the shooter followed the Kenosha Guard Page or that he was invited on the Event Page they organized," a spokesperson said in a written statement.
"However, the Kenosha Guard Page and their Event Page violated our new policy addressing militia organizations and have been removed on that basis."
"I just killed somebody"
Videos purporting to be of the fatal shootings Tuesday evening has gone viral on social media. In one, a male can be seen being chased and then firing at someone from close range. Moments later, the shooter is seen standing above a white man who had been shot in the head near a business in Kenosha.
As others scurry to convert a shirt into a tourniquet to apply to the injured man's bleeding wound in the back of his head, the apparent shooter runs away and says into a cellphone held tight to his left ear: "I just killed somebody."
Soon after the wounded man was carried away, several people were shown chasing the shooter down the middle of a street.
He stumbles and, as his pursuers near him, he shoots two of them.
One of the men was left with a gaping wound in his arm, as seen in yet another, particularly gruesome video on social media.
Although people yell that the teen in the green shirt is the shooter, police vehicles drive past him toward the victims, a video shows.
A teenage "Blue Lives Matter" supporter
Rittenhouse was born in 2003, and his mother has worked as a nursing assistant in Lake County. In 2014, she sued for child support and filed for bankruptcy in 2018, court documents show. In her bankruptcy filing, Rittenhouse's mother wrote that she also had a daughter, who was then 17.
Rittenhouse was charged a week ago in a separate case in Kenosha County for allegedly speeding between 20 and 24 mph over the limit on a freeway and for driving without a valid license.
A Facebook page that appeared to be Rittenhouse's showed publicly-visible posts that were almost exclusively about police.
The profile picture posted to the page was a photo of him and another young white male holding guns. The backdrop for the photo is a U.S. flag adorned with the "thin blue line," a symbol of solidarity with police. Around the photo was a circle with the caption, "Duty. Honor. Courage. Blue Lives Matter."
That slogan is often used by police and their most-fervent supporters in response to Black Lives Matter — the movement inspired by the many cases of police using excessive force against persons of color.
The Facebook page attributed to Rittenhouse also included posts of a Chicago Police logo with a thin blue line across it and a tribute to a Chicago police officer killed in the line of duty in 2018, as well as a remembrance of a McHenry County, Ill., sheriff's deputy killed in the line of duty in 2019.
In December 2018, the page solicited donations to "Humanizing the Badge" for Rittenhouse's 16th birthday. He explained that the organization was a nonprofit group "seeking to forge stronger relationships between law enforcement officers and the communities they serve."
Buzzfeed News reported that Rittenhouse attended a Trump political rally in Iowa earlier this year and posted a video from the event.
The TikTok account bearing his name also featured photos of Rittenhouse with guns. As of Wednesday, the account "was banned due to multiple Community Guidelines violations," according to the company.
On Wednesday, a Facebook page for the Public Safety Cadet Program" that once touted Rittenhouse among its participants vanished. That page had once commented on the boy's photo with a cheery message.

FILE PHOTO: A view of the Autostrade per l'Italia headquarters in Rome, Italy, July 21, 2020. REUTERS/Yara Nardi
MILAN (Reuters) - Italian state lender Cassa Depositi e Prestiti (CDP) could buy a controlling stake in Atlantia's ATL.MI motorway unit Autostrade in an initial public offering to allay investors concerns over the price of the asset, a source close to the matter said on Sunday.
Earlier this month the Italian government reached a preliminary compromise that left Autostrade with its motorway concession but forced Atlantia to hand over control to state lender CDP and allied investors.
The deal opened the way to settling a bitter dispute set off by the collapse of a bridge run by Atlantia’s tollway unit in the northern city of Genoa in 2018, in which 43 people were killed.
But TCI, an investor in infrastructure group Atlantia, said in a letter of complaint that Italy’s order that Atlantia sell down its stake in Autostrade “seriously threatened the fundamental principles of the EU Capital Market Union”.
TCI demanded that the sale of the unit should be carried out “transparently, in accordance with market standards” and asked the government to launch a competitive auction to sell Autostrade or, alternatively, to demerge it and list it to create the conditions for Atlantia to sell its controlling stake in the motorway unit to CDP at a “fair” price.
The preliminary deal reached between Atlantia and the government was due to be ratified by Aug. 3, just before the inauguration of the new bridge in Genoa, the source said.
Atlantia has picked Bank of America Merrill Lynch, JP Morgan and Mediobanca to advise on the sale of a stake in its motorway unit, two sources close to the matter said, as suitors line up to invest in its Autostrade per l’Italia unit.

May 31, 2015 (Nyamilepedia) — Three weeks ago, an invitation notice was extended and circulated on media, urging sons and daughters of Pagak to attend the commemoration of Pagak promotion to County level which is said to would have taken place in June. One made a plan to attend the function. Unfortunately, on Monday May 25, 2015, cousin Chan Nyak Kuoth, drop me a line communicating the fact that the day celebration supposed to be held has been changed from June to May 27, that change ruined the plan. Although one haven’t made it to attend the celebration of the new county–Pagak, heart, thoughts and feelings are with the people who are physically celebrating. Insightfully, one thought about his paternal uncle who established the town using his own herds as the primary sources for use during that process. The author is also been mindful of all individuals who help in making the establishment of Pagak a reality over the years. Pagak County is located in the eastern-most of South Sudan along Ethiopian border. The area is the home of a variety speakers of Nilo-Saharan languages such as the Nuer and Burun/Majangir as well as their Anyuak brothers/sisters on the side of Ethiopia. The Nuer who live in Pagak County are eastern Jikany branch, consisting of Gaatjaak, Gaatguang and Gaatjiok. These clans are the majority of the Nuer who live in the Upper Nile region of South Sudan. When Pagak got established in 1988, Gaatjaak were only habitant. The complexity of the social composition of Pagak increased when the SPLM/A follow the citizen who explored the town and make it a training center for new army recruit in 1989—-that when other South Sudanese nationalities entered the area. Like many outer-posts, Pagak has for years—-remained a remote unreachable jungle village between Zarzar and Lare. Native dwellers who habited this would be the future business center—survive primarily on livestock, cultivation, fishery as well as hunting and gathering. Below is a succinct background story of Pagak, covering the period of its early establishment up to the moment.
How Pagak came of being? The story of Pagak date back to 1970s when late Vincent Kuany Latjor defected from Sudan in 1975 and slipped into the bushes of then Southern Sudan toward Ethiopia. He and his colleagues made contact with then Dergue regime of Mengistu Haile Mariam looking for military assistance. Out of the retaliation of what Sudanese government was doing by supplying Eritrean rebels, Ethiopian authority began to provide liability support and stationed mutineers in a remote camp called Bilpam. At first, Ethiopia did not provide their food item, which left the group struggled for their own survival. Initially, Kuany became close friend to this author’s paternal uncle who help them wholeheartedly using his own cattle.
In the fall of 1975, Kuany left Bilpam after the area was devastated with heavy flood and stationed in uncle Puok home in Lare. Approximately, he led a group of one to two thousand soldiers. Every week, uncle Puok has to slaughter an ox for them to eat throughout their stay, with the help of the community members, Kuany and his soldiers managed to stay in the community for a period of two months before they went back to Bilpam after Baro water went down.
When SPLM/A took over and Kuany was detained, uncle Puok got no recognition, given that those who took over did not know about his contribution. By the time Vincent Kuany got released in 1988 after SPLM/A cemented its unification with Anyanya-two, Kuany called uncle Puok to visit him in Itang. One remember Puok took two rams with him to Itang as a gift to Gat-Latjor. Before the end of the visitation, Kuany told Puok to go along with him to meet William Nyuon Bany. It was in that meeting Kuany declared to William Nyuon that, “during our eight years stay in Bilpam, part of our survival comes from this man. Since we have now had gotten plenty of ration from the United Nations, I want you to recognize this man for what he has done.” Then, William asked Puok what would he like to do? Puok told him “I would like to lead my community and establish a town that will serve as the seat of my authority.” Ultimately, William authorized a letter to be written bearing the seal of the SPLM/A. The tone of the letter directed whoever comes to have contact with uncle Puok to respect and comply with the content and the terms of the letter. Basically, the letter described Puok as the head chief of Lare. After Puok went back to Lare, he called general assembly meeting and the letter was read aloud by Hoth Nyamai Ruei who eventually became his secretary assisted by this author.
Shortly, within the fall of 1988, Puok and the group of sympathizers moved to Pilual Donnie, an area previously used as a refugee resettlement center during Anyanya-one era. Three months later, then governor of Gambella region Mr. Thowath Pal Chai, ordered the removal of the town from Pilual Donnie; saying, “Pilual is on the side of Ethiopia territory.” Then Puok relocated the town to Larping currently known as Pagak. The name Pagak is originated to a nearby village which previously occupied by Burun/Majanger before they vacated it in early 1980s and the use of the name Pagak was promoted by Dr. Riek Machar over the name Lerping. I bet he was in a mood of avoiding confusion between Lerping and his home town Leer. First, the establishment of the town was Vincent Kuany Latjor influence. Kuany was the one who encouraged uncle Puok to explore a town. In 1989-90, then Itang refugee camp coordinator comrade Taban Deng Gai promoted the residency of the town by ordering soldiers to build John Garang house. From that time onward, different personalities contributed one way or another to upgrade the town.
In late 1990s and early 2000, Dr. Riek Machar encouraged citizens anywhere in South Sudan to open airstrips so that commercial airplanes may drop food aid to needy local residents. Pagak became one of the chosen center where NGOs has stationed permanently to distribute urgently needed necessity. In 1995, an importance political development took place in Pagak, Dr. Riek came back to town from Addis Ababa after he had traveled to Addis Ababa seeking alliances with NDA after NDA form alliances with SPLM/A John Garang’s faction. When Riek’s quest for joining NDA was rejected and got ordered out of the country by the Ethiopian government, he cross the border and stationed in Pagak one of his headquarters and decided to form alliances with the NIF regime which later on resulted into the signing of a political charter with the government of the Sudan . Hence, the charter that culminated to Khartoum Peace Agreement and inked or signed on 21 April 1997 originated from Pagak deliberation. Currently, story repeat itself, the deliberation of adopting federal system as the form of the governance in South Sudan has again taken place in Pagak. These are historical facts children of Pagak should indubitably be proud of.
When CPA was signed in 2005, Southern Sudan interim government structured the system of governance by establishing five levels of the government i.e.; the country, State, County, Payam and Boma/Buma; Pagak ascended from being just a village to Payam. While the end of the interim period was approaching, many people in various places in South Sudan submitted proposals and grievances to power holders whether from State or National levels demanding more counties. Like others, Pagak citizens demanded that the town should be upgraded from Payam to county but all complaints did not workout. Such demands of creating more counties was put on hold until when the country was plunged to war and find itself in this current disorderly manner.
When Dr. Riek came to Addis Ababa from South Sudan in the first week of May 2014 following the European Union, United Nations and the United States’ pressure to involve high profile leaders in the stagnant peace talks in Addis Ababa Ethiopia, Riek brought with him the idea of adopting the federal system of the governance as the basis of ruling South Sudan once peace has prevailed and attained. Under that proposal, Dr. Riek has recommended that, “former southern Sudan districts under British-Egyptian rule, must be upgraded to State level” the idea had equally invited restructuring and promotion of more Payams to the county level. By the time peace talk broke down in October 2014, IGAD mediators demanded South Sudan warring parties must convene conferences in order to communicate IGAD proposal to their respected constituencies. Out of the SPLM/A-IO convention on December 6, 2015 Pagak and many other Payams were made counties after the function had endorsed Dr. Riek’s proposal of federation.

This past Wednesday on May 27, 2015, sons and daughters of Pagak had converged in the town to celebrate the birth of the new county. It was a well-attended function where joyous participants euphorically sang and ululated. Profoundly, the transformation that is taking place in the political structure of South Sudan under the leadership of Dr. Riek Machar is pioneering given that it has introduced the principle of decentralization under federated units opposing Juba tendency of ruling the country under unitary State where power is vested on the hands of the few people. This well thought restructuring, has to be carried on if we are really aiming of fulfilling our forbearers’ popular demand of federalism since 1947.
In conclusion, one is so grateful to the leadership of the SPLM/A-IO for making much needed transformation of the country. Without doubt, majority of South Sudanese people are yearning for federalism to be adopted as the system of the governance. Federal system unlike the mere centralization Juba dragging its feet of promoting, is a constitutional arrangement in which the sovereignty of the nation is divided between the national, State, county and all local governments. Such arrangement provide stronger degree of autonomy to various levels of the government to fulfil citizens’ need. As the celebration has been concluded, one would lastly appeal to Pagak sons and daughters, to promote spirit of mutual understanding as they are running new county activities. It is now up to us to develop the town. Development does not only mean building bricks, cement or zinc houses. It involve everything including combination of mud, grass and tree houses. In that extend, one would like to urge the commissioner and all his council members to build (federal republic square, a large center for conferences and public guess house) with wood, grasses and mud; using our women league, youth as well as civil society of Pagak men group. Modern infrastructure institutions will follow once peace has been achieved. Moreover, one would equally urge compatriots in Pagak to avoid being rigid over the land issue. Give land to all NGOS that wish to establish their stay and all SPLM/A-IO various institutions particularly department of education and health, their work will one day remain Pagak future benefit. .Long live the leadership of the SPLM/A-IO, long live the dream of our fore fathers. May God bless Pagak!!

Hello there,
Creating more states and counties is not a best solution for our South Sudanese people suffering.
Federalism system is not the best answer for South Sudan because South Sudan is already A Federal state: only challenge is implemented of that system of governance.

Hey Lul, You wrote a very good article on Pagak historical background. Unfortunately, much of what you wrote is mostly exxageration or some hear-says lies which many of those who know more about that area cannot support. FYI: Vincent Kuany has never settle in Pagak for the reason you mentioned in a passing. Pagak was formely inhabited by Burun but later used by Gambella People Liberation Front(GPLF) allied with Oromo Liberation Front(OLF) against Dergu Regime. From 1975-1976, Vincent Kuany and his group lived at Itang together with Refugees and were not given any place to stay alone. By winter of 1977, they were allowed to clear Bilpaam which was a forest for their camp. This is some brief story that you should know. I don’t want to talk more about Pagak and how it comes into being. Another point you should know is that Gaguany are very far from Pagak and they cannot be part of Pagak County. Rather,they are near to Mathiang/ Guelguk county.. Please, know your geography before you pick up your computer or pen to write something about Eastern Nuer areas.

Dear Mal Tut Bor,
This is to inform you that Mr. Lul Gatluak didn’t say that Vincent Kuany settled or visited Pagak. Also, he didn’t said that Gaguany are part of Pagak but he was talking about Eastern Nuer(Jikany). I would like to encouraging you to go back and read the article again so that you will have a better understanding of it.
Thanks,
Chan Nyak Kuoth.

Abuchook, your uncle has marginalized the people of Fagaak county and there is a reason to create a new county under the able leadership of Dr.Machar. Your uncle was making Nuer counties lesser than any states so he could keep more money in his pocket. Just help us to celebrate the victory over your uncle.

Abuchook and Agumut,
Pagak and Nasir brought you independent because Dr. Riek establish his movement in Nasir and reconciled with Dr. Garang in Pagak which produced CPA which you are now enjoying, again Federalism and 21 states were proposed in Nasir and established in Pagak. This small town of Pagak is the birth place of all South Sudanese whether you like it our not. Why every liberation always went to Eastern Nuer area not Bhar Ghazal it is because all people there are too cooperatives and brave, you can eat as much as you want which can never happen in Bhar Ghazal.

The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has joined the rest of the world to celebrate the Africa Safer Internet Day (ASID), which is the continent’s version of the World Safer Internet Day (WSID), held on February 9 every year.
In marking the Africa Safer Internet Day 2021, with the theme “Positioning and Partnering for Child Online Protection”, NCC’s representatives visited secondary schools in Abuja and Lagos to sensitise and educate students, on how they can use the internet productively, avoid being victims of all forms of cybercrime, and deal with cases of cyberbullying.
The schools include Model Secondary School, and Government Science Secondary School, both in Maitama, Abuja; and Kuramo Junior College and Victoria Island Junior Secondary School, both in Victoria Island, Lagos.
Addressing some of the students of Government Science Secondary School, Abuja, under strict observance of COVID-19 protocols, Tokunbo Oyeleye, Deputy Director, New Media and Information Security at NCC, stated that this year’s theme was in sync with one of the focus areas of NCC with respect to child online protection, noting that the a Commission constantly sensitises young Nigerians on cybersecurity and its applications.
“We are here, as NCC representatives, to educate you, the younger generation of Internet users on what you need to know to keep safe while online as part of our efforts to ensure child online protection in our country in the use of Information and Communication Technology,” Oyeleye said.
She further explained that the concern over child online protection should not be limited to arresting the perpetrators, but should be more of providing education and counselling that may assist in minimising the harm on younger Internet users.
Meanwhile, at the Lagos event, Nkechi Obiekwe, Controller, NCC Lagos Zonal Office, said the protection and safety of children while they access the internet is a shared responsibility. She added that internet penetration permeates every aspect of life and adoption of the internet presents opportunities for learning.
Earlier, in a presentation, Chioma Ibe, a Principal Manager in NCC, spoke on cyberbullying and signs to watch out for.
She also highlighted ways to resist online bullying and the importance of reporting cases of cyberbullying to relevant authorities.
“Online bullying can have a devastating impact on young people, whose online life is a key part of their identity and how they interact socially. Cyberbullying takes many forms, such as sending abusive messages, hurtful images or videos, nasty online gossip, excluding or humiliating others or creating fake accounts in someone’s name to trick or humiliate them,” Ibe said.
Also contributing to the discussion, Chukwuemeka Monyei, the Executive Director, Like-a-Palm-Tree Foundation, educated the students on how to mute conversation with, unfollow, block, and report anybody who engages in an act of cyberbullying toward them as a way of protecting themselves.
Oyeleye urged the students to share the knowledge they have gained during the programme with their friends and relatives towards ensuring a safer internet for all.
Pamphlets with salient printed information on child online protection, with emphasis on cyberbullying, were distributed to the students across the four schools.
The students, who participated in the intensive one-day sensitization, expressed delight for being part of such a highly educational programme and thanked the Commission for its leading role in online child protection.

However, it must be noted that call girls don't offer their services to men who don't wish to pay. In the actual world, these girls are always available to their customers for dates and actions, so that the customer feels comfortable to have his'date' with his lady. This is not true OK in the digital world.
Many people do not understand why there are not many escorts who are willing to speak out for the right to have sex with the clients. People will think that the people who are against the Fuck Local Sluts Oklahoma prostitution of sex workers are only out to hurt those who want to have sex. However, the simple fact is that the majority of the sex workers are not doing anything wrong.
They are only standing up for their rights to have the freedom to enjoy their sex lives without plenty of interference. It's up to the client to find out whether the service is satisfactory or not.
If the client gets what he's paying for, then it's only since the escort has provided a great service. But if the services are unsatisfactory, then the only College Slutes thing the customers must do is to report the company to the Better Business Bureau and allow the authorities deal with it. Sex is a commodity and like all commodities, it can be acquired at a very low price.
However, the quality of the services may be of good or poor quality. The biggest threat is to utilize the services of a prostitute without knowing a lot about her and what she offers in terms of solutions. Sex with a prostitute has its own set of problems.

HomeTURKISH DRAMARIRI NANO June 19, 2021
Can Yaman and Diletta Leotta continue to be at the center of media attention of the moment. The two protagonists of the Gossip keep bench with their love story made of sightings, social photos, and various paparazzi. Lately, Can and Diletta have had fun posting shots together on their Instagram profiles, on the occasion of the match between Italy and Turkey, valid for the European Football Championship 2021.
Everything would suggest that the love story continues in the best possible way, but there are still doubts on the part of Alessandro Rosica: the gossip expert, in fact, has revealed some background on their relationship and, according to him, they would never sleep together.
New doubts about the couple composed by Can Yaman and Diletta Leotta
In detail, on social networks, the love story between Can and Diletta seems to continue in the best possible way: in the various pictures they publish, the couple always looks happy, smiling, and carefree, which would suggest that their love is really strong and sincere.
However, doubts are never lacking and in particular, the gossip expert Alessandro Rosica, let himself go to the new sensational revelations about the couple, writing that he knew that the two would never sleep in the same bed.
In particular, Rosica on his Instagram profile has published a post in which he claims to have collected revelations from people who work (who prefer to remain anonymous) within the hotels and B & B where in recent months have stayed Can and Diletta during their various trips around Italy.
Rosica's backstory on Can Yaman and Diletta
"The script would be pretty much the same every time," Rosica blurted out in his outburst post going on to say that although the two lovers strive to look like the model couple, they would actually be hiding a "secret."
"The relationship signs on the bed are there but why are they sleeping apart if there is so much love? There is evidence everywhere, and it shows that the two never sleep together," Rosica pointed out reiterating in fact that although there is an intimacy between the two, in the various hotel stays, Can and Diletta would always sleep in two different beds.
Can and Diletta's silence on the controversy related to their love continues
A backstory that has once again fueled the rumors about the couple of the moment, even if the two directly involved prefer not to comment on what is said about them.
In these months after the birth of their relationship, Can and Diletta have never said a word about the doubts and contradictions related to their love story, preferring to go on their way, heedless of the controversy.

In order to be able to reside in Switzerland beyond a continuous 90-day period, a non-Swiss citizen is required to obtain a residence permit.
There are different types of permits available, depending on what the individual’s requirements are.
Typically, the majority of persons from abroad will apply for a renewable B permit that allows them to live in Switzerland and if they wish to, also work.
The advantage is that a B permit holder will be allowed to purchase any piece of property without having to apply for a separate permit. EU persons are also allowed to purchase in addition to their domicile home additional homes that would not be used as primary domicile but e.g. as vacation homes, e.g. an apartment in Ticino for the summer and a chalet in Valais for the winter vacation.
A – Purchase conditions
B – Legal restrictions
C – Cost and legal formalities
D – Guarantees
E – Purchase procedure
F – Financing
G – Purchase security
H – Terms of payment
I – Annual expenses
J – Financial considerations
K – Legal aspects
A. PURCHASE CONDITIONS
The sale of real estate to non-Swiss citizen is subject to several laws. The actual law is named « Lex Friedrich ». Each canton has a yearly quota of properties authorised for sale to « non-Swiss ». This law came into effect on the 1st January 1985 and is a modification of the “Lex Furgler”. Its goal is to control the purchase of properties in Switzerland by non-Swiss citizens.
An authorisation to purchase must be obtained from the Cantonal Authorities and from the Federal Department of Justice and Police, through a Notary (in Switzerland they are Public Officers).
B. LEGAL RESTRICTIONS
Non-Swiss may only buy one property of maximum 200 square meters of habitable space per family in Switzerland : family defined as husband and wife and/or under-age children. After the age of 20, the son or daughter of an owner may purchase one property in his/her own name, provided he/she can prove his/her financial independence.
Subject to the restrictions under the « Lex Friedrich », it is now once again possible to resell an apartment after its acquisition to another non-resident. All applications for resale must be made through a notary’s office, once a buyer is found. If the resale is immediate it should not look like a speculation to the authorities.
Under Swiss Law, an owner or his family may occupy their apartment for up to six months per year. (Twice three months)
The accommodation cannot be rented on an annual basis (maximum 11 month and one week) as an owner is supposed to use his property for at least three weeks of the year.
No authorisation is required for the purchase of a principal residence if the buyer has a permit of residence B. (except if the land has more then 1’000 sqm).
EU citizens with a permit of residence B and all foreigners with a residence permit C can buy as many properties as they want.
C. COST AND LEGAL FORMALITIES
The purchase of an apartment becomes valid once the owner is registered at the Land Register.
The purchase fees amount to a total of
Cantonal + Communal transfer fee :
Notary and registration fee : 2.5 % (Valais)
By Power of Attorney, the future owner entrusts the appointed notary’s office with the duty of ensuring that all the legal and reglementary formalities are respected, particularly the registration of the deed in the Land Register and releasing the acquired apartment from any previous mortgage.
All the preliminary payments must be made to the notary (i.e. the reservation deposit) into his « clients » deposit account.
D. CONSTRUCTION GUARANTEE
(for new buildings only)
The federal construction guarantee is:
– 5 (five) years for construction defects
– 10 (ten) years for hidden defects
For re-sales properties, there is no guarantee.
E. PURCHASE PROCEDURE
Once the client has chosen an apartment or a chalet, the procedure is as follows:
He completes a civil status questionnaire.
He completes a declaration on the honour.
Then he must fill out a Power of Attorney which states the following:
the name and full address of the purchaser,
the location and name of the chalet, the number of the apartment and floor it is on,
the number of the parking space (if applicable),
the detailed selling price:
price of the apartment
price of the mooring place
price of the parking space
= Total sale price
the schedule of payments, as a percentage of the total sale price, corresponding to the extent of the works.
Copy of his/her passport, signed.
The signature on the power of attorney and on the copy of the passports must be legalized.
The above documents are normally completed with the help of our parrtner company and then forwarded to the official Swiss notary who begins the purchase procedure.
Once the notary has received all these completed and signed documents, plus the deposit, he will take the following steps:
Proceed to the signing of the deed of sale.
Apply for the authorisation to purchase on behalf of those who are not resident in Switzerland.
With the help of our prtner company, apply for the required mortgage.
The administrative time taken to obtain the authorisations is usually two to six months from the date of the submission of the application.
Once the authorisation has been received, the Notary will duly record the deed of sale in the Land Register.
F. FINANCING
The standard loan granted by Swiss banks for purchases is about 66 % of the sales price (incl. parking space). This loan is usually granted in the form of a debit to a current account and only the property qualifies as security.
Traditional financing through a mortgage can also be arranged. The interest in this case is lower but the account is not as flexible in its use as the current debit account.
The rate of interest is fixed in stages and can vary depending on the state of the Swiss economy.
A larger mortgage can be arranged on the basis of additional security/guarantees (shares, gold, etc.).
G. PURCHASE SECURITY
An official Swiss notary will act on behalf of both the purchaser and the vendor. He draws up the deeds and documents required for legal ownership and is there to protect the interests of both parties.
It is a notary of the district who will act on behalf of the vendor and the purchaser.
H. TERMS OF PAYMENT (for a new-build property)
Upon reservation 34%
When the roof is built 33%
Upon receipt of the keys 33%
TOTAL 100%
I. ANNUAL EXPENSES
Co-ownership charges (for an apartment):
It is commonly estimated that the annual running costs of a building are about 0.8 % of the purchase price.
These costs are divided up proportionately between the owners, according to the size of their apartment.
These expenses include:
caretaker / social security contributions
maintenance of building and materials
water / gas / electricity and heating
insurance and various taxes
gardening and maintenance of roads
administration fees and various expenses
an allocation to the building’s renovation fund
etc.
The manager (of the co-owned property) collects the relevant amounts covering the total expenses incurred by the building. These are payable quarterly or half-yearly.
2. Taxes: (amount to about 1,3 % of purchase price p.a.)
Taxes are paid to three bodies:
The Swiss Government
The Canton
The Commune
The rental value is equivalent to the amount the owner would pay for renting a similar property. This constitutes the basis of the income tax.
In addition to these direct taxes, the following also have to be paid:
National Defence Tax
Land Tax
Tourist Tax
J. FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
1. Taxes on profit from real estate (capital gains tax)
In the case of resale, the property is subject to an appreciation tax. As the purchase price is not indexed to the cost of living in Switzerland, the taxable profit is the difference between the sale price and the purchase price total: (purchase price + purchase fees + possible increase in value (special work carried out or renovations made) + any commission due to the real estate agents + other costs).The rate of the capital gain tax decreases according to the years of ownership. Please click here for the rates.
2. Returns
To date (and the figures justify this), the principal source of profit for foreign investors has been the currency ‘hedge’ of the Swiss Franc.
It has allowed the initial capital:
to be protected from depreciation
to increase in value (profit – speculation)
to protect itself against inflation
to be self-managing by net return
Finally, the most important and less quantifiable return is the pleasure you will have from using your property and the enjoyment gained from the security and tranquility of Switzerland.
K. LEGAL ASPECT
The « Propriété Par Etage » (PPE) means co-ownership by floor. The co-ownership is a legal right which consists of two inextricably linked elements:
a share of the whole building and its integral parts (totality of the and floor/roof covering and plumbing/common parts, etc.)
an exclusive right to use your defined parts of the building (your apartment and garage if applicable)
The building is divided into shares and measured in oo/oo (thousandths). The administrative « control » of the PPE co-property is exercised by the co-owners’ annual general meeting. A complete set of rules for co-ownership may be provided on request.
Death duties
This depends on whether the specific case involves direct descendant heir or not. In the Canton of Valais it is particularly appreciable that there is no inheritance tax for the specific case on direct descendants.

Bryson DeChambeau at the World Golf Championship-FedEx St Jude Invitational - Round One / Andy Lyons/Getty Images
Bryson DeChambeau was involved in more controversy on Thursday during the WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational in Memphis. On the seventh hole, DeChambeau asked to be awarded a drop due to the presence of red fire ants. The exchange with the rules official was fascinating.
DeChambeau and the official seemed to be arguing over the presence of ants, whether that put him in danger, and whether that constituted a "burrowing animal hole." It was crazy.
Check this out:
Bryson DeChambeau + Fire Ants + burrowing animal hole = GOLD on a CBS Sports HQ live look-in.

This was my favorite part:
Bryson complaining about seeing an ant hear his stance. ????
— Will Brinson (@WillBrinson) July 30, 2020
It was such a silly argument. Just hit the ball, Bryson.
Rules official: "I don't see any fire ants in the sense that it would be a dangerous situation."
Bryson: "Anything right here? What is this thing? There's two of them!"
I'm howling!! ?
— Kyle Porter (@KylePorterCBS) July 30, 2020
DeChambeau built up a ton of goodwill when he packed on a ton of muscle during golf's coronavirus-induced break. When he returned launching tee shots to the moon, fans loved it. He was also playing incredibly well. But he has also yelled at cameramen and argued regularly with rules officials, draining away much of the support he was getting.

It is argued declaration of police culpability in not only the surrounding the specific case of Stephen Lawrence but a wider concern with the maltreatment of black and ethnic minority communities more generally. (Shiner 2010; 935). The Macpherson Report identified that the combination of three core deficiencies within the police which contributed to an environment fostering racism: (1) professional incompetence, (2) institutional racism and (3) a failure by senior police officers in exercising their public duty. (Macpherson 1999: 46.1). The Report considered that their findings with regard to institutional racism were symptomatic with not only the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) but with other Police Services and institutions countrywide. (Macpherson 1999; 6.39). It is agreed by a number of academics that the way in which the police handled the Lawrence investigation were not particularly racist against the Lawrence family but rather it was symbolic of the way in which the police were treating working class families with a sheer lack of understanding on the part of the police of the experiences and expectations of the black community. (Chan 1996; 115-119 and Phillips and Bowling 2007).

The important aspect to emerge from the Report was the impact it would have on the police as an institution in that although Stepheystallised ‘the disastrous ebbing away of black confidence in the police’. (Reiner 2000; 79). It represented a turning point for policing in that it prompted the most significant review of the relationship between policing and ethnic communities, questioning how policing could be reflective of the community it serves. (Bowling and Phillips 2007; 546). The Macpherson reported noted some 70 recommendations aimed at improving this relationship between the police and ethnic communities which were implemented in the aftermath of the delivery of the Report. (Home Affairs Committee 2007). A key reforming recommendation was Recommendation 61 which required police to keep records of all ‘stop and search’ activities carried out by the police which would contain the information of ethnicity which in turn could be used to determine whether the police were stopping any particular ethnicity disproportionately. (Macpherson 1999; 47.61). The effect of requiring police officers to record the informal aspects of their use of ‘stop and search’ was one way in which the police could be held to account publically if they disproportionately stopped any ethnicity over another. Additionally, it had sought to reduce the arbitrariness of the use of ‘stop and search’ by ensuring the police would only use the power appropriately when they had to record each time who they stopped. (Saunders and Young 2010; 97 – 101). One of the core concerns of the Macpherson Report identified that the police in practice were in effect ‘over-policing’ particular ethnic communities and by requiring the police to report on their use of discretionary police powers would create an accountability mechanism within which the public could scrutinise the use of police powers. (Macpherson 1999; 6.34). It held the potential of becoming the ‘yardstick’ indicator of policing.
However, it is important to note that whilst the Macpherson Report clearly set about to place policing within a new agenda of accountability and openness to the community in which they served, it has been argued by Savage that the police as an institution has been able to ‘undermine, frustrate and withstand’ any external proposals for reform. (Savage 2003; 171). In addition, it is important to understand the internal police perception of the Macpherson Report in that their reaction was deeply divided between senior ranking officer and ‘rank and file’ field officers. (Rowe 2004). The senior officers were more open to change and accepted the findings of the Macpherson Report, however, the rank and file field officers protested that the Report was an affront to their professionalism in exercising their public duty. (McLaughlin 2007). Media reporting in 2009 from across a section of sources attempt to argue that the problems emerging from the Macpherson Report were now no longer relevant ten years after Macpherson due to the reforms implemented from the Report. In January 2009 the chair of the Equality and Human Rights Commission, Trevor Phillips wrote in the Daily Mail that the police were no longer institutionally racist. (19 January 2009). Additionally, Jack Straw who was the Secretary of State for Justice also backed the claim that the police had moved on by addressing the problems established in the Macpherson Report. (The Guardian, 23 February 2009). At the tenth anniversary of the Macpherson Report, the Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Service, Sir Paul Stephenson, also told the media that the police had made significant progress in addressing the concerns of the Macpherson Report. (The Guardian, 24 February 2009).
There a number of ways or indicators to assess how successful the Macpherson Report was at delivering a more open and accountable police force since its delivery over ten years ago. The London School of Economics (LSE) through its Mannheim Centre for Criminology commissioned a large number of national surveys of the police between 2002 and 2004 which could act as a good indicator of whether reform was successful. In their report the authors conclude that a number of successes can be claimed since the delivery of the Macpherson Report. (Foster et al 2005). In specific the LSE noted that the Macpherson Reported represented an important mechanism for change which was evidenced through improvements in police responses to hate crimes and in the recording and monitoring of racist incidents. (Ibid; vii – ix). Policing structures now allowed for dedicated teams of officers for racial crimes who undertook specialist training in developing specific skills for investigating and managing racial crimes. However, the LSE Report did note that many officers view these teams with scepticism and often marginalised the officers within them. (Ibid; 92). This highlights that whilst efforts were made at reforming the institutional structure towards creating specialist teams for specific crimes affecting ethnic minorities many existing officers did not support this development. (Buchanan 2006; 173-174). Additionally, the LSE Report noted considerable improvements in murder investigations with considerable improvements on communication between the police and local ethnic communities. It was the creating of community liaison officers which represented a positive change towards creating and fostering an environment of respect between the police and local ethnic communities. These officers allowed the facilitation of police policy to be communicated to local ethnic minorities and also for the police to take account of any concerns within the local ethnicity minority community. Interestingly, all police forces across the UK have engaged training officers in Community Race Relations to develop existing and new officers skills set in being aware of the diverse cultures and experiences of minority communities within the UK.
An important issue raised by the LSE Report was that some police officers within the survey believed that the Macpherson Report was wrong in concluding on the racism within policing and tended to view the problems raised by the Report as being primarily around incompetence. (Foster et al 2005; 33). The danger here is that there is a risk that the real message surrounding the racism issue within policing can become lost within the institutional structure when some officers only focus on the actual incompetence findings within Macpherson. The LSE Report also found that the police use of language and their attempts to abolish the use of racist language amongst officers were becoming successful. (Ibid; 43). This approach was achieved through continuous education of new recruits and retraining schemes for existing officers, the key to the success of this hinged upon the senior officers creating an environment within policing which did not accept the use of racist language.

Although the Macpherson Report opened the possibility of effecting real change within policing there still exists a number of key concerns. The concerns revolve around two core issues, firstly police use of ‘stop and search’ powers and secondly the unsuccessful recruitment of sufficient officers from ethnic communities in order to make the police more reflective of the community it serves. The reporting structure recommended by Macpherson shows that a high proportion of people from the Black community are disproportionately stopped by the police under the ‘stop and search’ powers. This represents that the database of all stop and searches contain 20% more black people than Asian or White people. (Bennetto 2009; 22). Whilst the Black community is over represented in the criminal justice system for criminal offences it does not justify a disproportionate use of police ‘stop and search’ power. Additionally, a core failing has been the problem with recruiting officers from within the ethnic communities. In an investigative journalism piece by the BBC’s Mark Daly (2003) highlights that a significant problem is that there is a serious underrepresentation within senior ranking positions of ethnic minorities which impact upon policy and public perception.

Please join the Orange County Chapter of Women in eDiscovery to discuss a relevant topic in today's current affairs and communities throughout the nation.
While deciding on this month’s topic, we wanted to bring something unique, relevant and uncomfortable to the table; how talk about diversity, equity & inclusion and specifically race in a productive and inclusive way.
Ms. Evelyn Boneta, a Senior Associate from the Confidence Network, LLC will be with us facilitating a discussion about the following:
What is Diversity, Equity and Inclusion?
Why is diversity, equity and inclusion and specifically race so triggering?
What can we do to become more comfortable engaging instead of avoiding these topics?
Ms. Boneta is a native New Yorker, who is passionate about personal and professional development, self-awareness, and our innate connection to spirit. She uses her playfulness and genuine curiosity to creat a safe, comforting space for clients to uncover limiting beliefs and replace old patterns that no longer serve them with strategic actions that align with life and career goals. She specializes in empowering women and underrepresented talent to strengthen their voice and step into their personal power.

Justin Fields is the quarterback of the future for the Bears, but he is working behind a patchwork offensive line and getting beaten to a pulp. There were stirrings in the offseason that Rodgers might retire, but he ultimately did decide to come back to Green Bay for one more season. That was the worst news the Bears could have possibly received. The Browns, meanwhile, look like one of the best teams in the NFL but don’t have the record to show.
Dallas Cowboys Vs Kansas City Chiefs
The Kansas City Chiefs, which seemed to play like their old selves this past week against the Raiders, are 2-point favorites at home against Dallas. The Saints are your domain name coming off another brutal loss – this time on the road at Tennessee, and now they go back on the trail this week to face the Philadelphia Eagles. You can already find all the future bets you can handle for the NFL on DraftKings, including team futures, individual awards, and player totals.
Top Ranked Sportsbooks
As for winning the AFC North, the Steelers are currently at 4/1 odds and are behind both the Ravens and the Browns at 7/5 odds. The Kansas City Chiefs are favored by 5.5 points over the Cleveland Browns in a rematch of last year’s playoff game. The Chiefs squeaked out a win over Cleveland in the divisional round despite an injury to Patrick Mahomes. If the quarterback is on the field, however, the Chiefs could be difficult to beat. A preview of the day’s games from a sports betting and DFS perspective.
What Does +2 5 Mean In Nfl Betting?
Underdogs went 11-4 against the spread and unders went 9-6 heading into Monday Night Football, usually a bad combination for the betting public. Las Vegas surrendered 29.9 points per game last season (No. 30 in the NFL). Las Vegas averaged 27.1 points per game last season (No. 10 in the NFL). Baltimore surrendered 18.5 points per game last season (No. 1 in the NFL). Baltimore averaged 27.3 points per game last season (No. 9 in the NFL).
And with a full slate, we have a ton of NFL betting opportunities at our disposal today. With legal, online sports betting activating around the country, it has never been easier. Meanwhile, the Giants are coming off a bye week and may get Saquon Barkley back healthy. That may not matter under normal circumstances against Tampa Bay’s stout, second-ranked run defense that allows 79.8 yards per game, but Vita Vea is dealing with an MCL injury. Vea ranks as the 14th-best interior defensive lineman in football, per PFF, and is a great run stuffer. Arizona should win easily, but there is absolutely no value for Arizona sports betting fans wagering on them here as they are on some sites.
“The Panthers was a big win for the public in the early window, with 70% of bets and 76% of the money on Carolina,” Schlouch noted. It was the most lopsided game in terms of splits (86% of handle on Green Bay spread, 90% on moneyline) and the Green Bay spread generated the most handle of any individual bet on the entire board. The opening weekend of the 2021 NFL season brought several new legalized states into the world of sports betting and what’s sure to be an increase in money wagered. After you’ve rated all 32 teams in this fashion, you can take the difference between two teams in a scheduled matchup to determine what the line would be on a neutral field. In our example above, we’d say the Browns should be favored by two points against the Chargers on a neutral field.
Top Survivor Picks For Week 1
Because with all due respect to McCoy, there’s absolutely no way that he should be favored on the road in Seattle. The Buccaneers are favored by 11 over the Giants, the Titans are expected to beat the Texans by at least 10.5 and the Browns are expected to bounce back, as they’re favored by 10 points over the Lions. Another week of the 2021 NFL season and gone and with it came yet another banner week for underdogs. After posting a 10-4 mark against the spread in Week 9, underdogs went 9-5 ATS in Week 10. For Browns players and fans, the chance to take on the Chiefs in Week 1 is a chance to prove that they can expect new things in 2021. The Chiefs sent them packing in the postseason just last winter on their way to another Super Bowl, and the Chiefs have big things to prove again after remaking their offense live.

Arrow has put together another fine package with the True Romance 4K UHD. Perhaps much of it was already crafted for the Blu-ray release, but the upgrade is well worth it.
Tony Scott’s visuals really convey the difference between Detroit and L.A., even if some of the Detroit scenes were filmed in California. He gives the Act 1 scenes in Detroit a cold, winter feeling where you see the film grain and the smoky haze of interiors. Then a sunrise on the road to L.A. transitions the look of the film.
The bright, sunny California scenes are clear and colorful in contrast to Detroit. The characters transition into Alabama’s polka dot blouses and leopard pants, with her red lipstick, and Clarence with his flamboyant Hawaiian shirts. True Romance is full of Scott’s signature sunset shots too, where scenes occur at magic hour just because they do. The violence explodes as blood sprays from real squibs.
True Romance has a good sound mix, too. Hans Zimmer’s bubbly score bounces in the rear speakers. Drexl’s rap and club music fills the rears uncomfortably, too. The roller coaster also envelops you in your home.
Bonus features delve into the crafts of True Romance. Costume designer Susan Becker shows wardrobe tests for Patricia Arquette and Christian Slater. Co-editor Michael Tronick gives insight into collaborating with Scott and coping with an overflow of footage. There is Tony Scott footage somewhere that never got logged. For what remains in the film, Tronick discusses iconic scenes like the Drexl shooting, Christopher Walken and Dennis Hopper’s scene, and Elvis.
Marc Mancina and John Van Tongeren worked with Zimmer on the score, and they discuss how they’d divvy up scenes and collaborate with Zimmer. They also point out how True Romance led to the memorable music of Speed and The Lion King. Tony Scott biographer Larry Taylor also shares a perspective, and the 4 audio commentary from previous DVDs are included.
The box has cool new art. The poster with Slater pointing a gun around the corner was evocative, but now we’ve lived with True Romance. This is the image for fans who already know the movie.
The included booklet has four essays, twice as many as usual, each exploring the different ways Scott brought his unique touch to True Romance. Whether depicting hte film industry, the romance, or the Hooper/Walken scene, each author highlights something about Scott’s touch. Several also go into Scott’s career before and after True Romance, including the obituary by Edgar Wright. I personally appreciate the mention of Shoot ‘Em Up as influenced by Natural Born Killers in Nicholas Clement’s essay. One of the four is the 2008 oral history, which includes Scott himself, if you missed it online.
This True Romance 4K UHD set truly is the total package. It would be enough to have the movie in 4K quality, but between the new art, craftspeople’s insights and booklet enhance the appreciation for a fan favorite that’s already so cool.

Like most of use we know that children and pets don’t go hand and hand with clean upholstery. Luckily there is a solution for that, Bronco Pro Kleen Carpet Cleaning can help remove those tough stains and get your upholstery looking like new again. With many years of combined experience, the guys at Bronco know what to do and how to get out even the worst damage. Don’t be stuck with a rag and windex trying to fix what your dog did. There are many types of upholstery and not all cleaning solutions will work the same. So feel free to peruse this page and learn more about what we can do to get your upholstery looking like new again.
One of the best ways to extend the life of your upholstery is to get it cleaned on a routine basis. Not using a carpet cleaner can cause dirt and dust can build up and ruin the smell of your cushions and the overall look of your couches and/or seats so it’s important to keep your furniture looking clean and new and smelling good. One thing you might be asking is why don’t I just rent a machine and do this myself? Good question, the thing about this method is it can be tough to thoroughly remove all of the moisture from inside the seats, and if not done properly this can cause mildew, creating an unwanted stench. Our cleaning process is thorough and we only use the best equipment to remove moisture and take care of cleaning your furniture.
One of the things we like to do before we get started cleaning our customers upholstery is to analyze and discuss the type of furniture you have so we can determine exactly which type of cleaning will be best for your furniture. We will look at the types of stains as well to see what type of treatment will work best for your furniture. Also if you have tried already to get the stains out yourself we would like to know what you used so we can look at the chemicals that are in it. And don’t hesitate to give us a call, the sooner that we can get started cleaning the easier it usually is to get the stain out. Not to mention if there is still water this may cause mold, so it’s important to get these things taken care of smoothly and swiftly. and Remember our expertise as carpet cleaners is usually enough to fix any stain, so don’t throw it out yet, let us find the best solution for you!
During your call our one of our techs will let you know the recommended plan of action as well as the costs. We know your furniture is important to you and that it is a big investment for many families so we take our jobs very seriously. If you need carpet cleaning or upholstery cleaning in Denver, give us a call and let us do the rest!

International enrolment at Canadian schools increased by 10% from 2013 to 2014, according to a new report by CBIE. Students came primarily from China, India, South Korea, France, and Saudi Arabia, with 33% of the international student population coming from China. Just over half of the surveyed international students reportedly intended to apply for permanent residency after their studies. The survey revealed that international students were largely satisfied with their experience, with 95% reporting that they would recommend Canada as a study destination. “International education is critical to the future of Canada and Canadians,” said CEO and President of CBIE Karen McBride, who highlighted pathway programs as a great opportunity for Canadian higher education.

Immigrant Students Have Higher Success Rate in Education, Study Says

Immigrant students are outperforming Canadian-born students in their educational success, says a recent report from a triennial study by Statistics Canada. Overall, immigrant students were found to have higher levels of high school and university education than Canadian-born students; they were also more likely to report that they expected to, and did, graduate from university. According to the study’s authors, background characteristics of immigrants, such as their country of origin, explained some of the interregional differences in university success. Canadian-born students whose parents were immigrants had similar regional patterns of success as Canadian children.

HEQCO Releases Two Studies on International Students in Canada

Source: HEQCO via Academica
The Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) has released two new studies examining the international student population in Canada, with a particular focus on Ontario. In the report titled “International Students in Ontario’s Postsecondary Education System, 2000-2012,” researchers from Wilfrid Laurier University found that the average international student in Canada is male and attends college in the GTA. While the total number of international students in the country has grown, the number attending college has risen more quickly. In “The Global Competition for International Students as Future Immigrants,” researchers from York University and the University of Guelph explored ways to improve the experience for international students. They found that many ON universities have programs that target first-year students but lack supports for upper-year students. They also documented a need to “enhance interactions between international and domestic students.”

It seems the Seymour family is more interesting than they appear on the surface. Most who know Tudor history are familiar with Jane Seymour, third wife of King Henry VIII and mother of King Edward VI. Others may have heard of Jane’s brothers, the dour Lord Protector Edward, Duke of Somerset and the swashbuckling Thomas, Baron Seymour of Sudeley and Lord Admiral. This book goes into even more depth about the family.
The introduction and initial chapter traces the Seymour ancestry back to France and how they migrated to England. I found the information on Jane’s father Sir John Seymour to be of great interest. He was a man of means and had ties to the court but didn’t spend much time there, choosing to live in Wiltshire and tend to business at home. Edward and Thomas were introduced to court and had valid careers in the navy, as gentlemen of the court and in Edward’s case as a successful soldier.
There are chapters in the book dedicated to Jane, Edward, Thomas and other siblings. Something I found most interesting was how Henry VIII really took a liking to Edward and rewarded him. He was very much part of the inner circle of the King. In addition to being the uncle of Edward VI, this is how he earned his important place on the council to rule England during Edward’s minority after Henry’s death. Loades also clarifies the reasons for Edward’s downfall. Thomas is by far the most attention-grabbing figure in the family. Mercurial and indiscreet, he seems to have set in motion all the mechanisms for his own downfall. The last part of the book traces the descendants of Edward Seymour and his wife Anne Stanhope down to the present day.
I’ve never read anything by Loades before and he certainly has the credentials of a competent historian. He puts his own spin on all aspects of this family which I found new and refreshing. Because of this, I recommend this book. My only quibble is the format of the book. It seems the author penned the book and sent the manuscript to the publisher and it was published straight from that. The paragraphs all run together and there are some grammatical and punctuation errors. Most egregiously, there is no index for the book. The publisher could have engaged the services of an editor to correct these errors but it doesn’t detract from the history as presented by the author.

Below are templates of letters that you can copy and paste into your email and send to the Head of a Jewish Organization or to your Rabbi.
Dear President of [Organization – UJC, JTA, AJC, Hadassah, The Jewish Federations of North America],
As a member and a contributor, I am writing to you today regarding my concern for the organization’s agenda.
I am a strong and proud supporter of Israel. As such, I want to see Israel as a homeland for all Jews and as a country that supports “freedom of religion and conscience” – as promised in the country’s Declaration of Independence.
I know that there are many meaningful causes in Israel and the Jewish community that require our attention and support. I believe that Israel’s continuation of the status quo of the ultra-Orthodox monopoly in Israel is of growing concern. The trend towards religious extremism in Israel is a real and growing threat to both Israel and American Jewry. The Government of the State of Israel needs to be pressured to promote Jewish pluralism in the country.
It is vital to ieve that putting pressure on the Israeli government and financially supporting organizations working towards Jewish pluralism in Israel should be at the top of this year’s agenda.
Sincerely,
[Your name]
_____________________
Dear Rabbi,
As a congregate, I am writing to you today to ask you to become more active in the push for Jewish pluralism in Israel.
It concerns me to a great deal that Israel does not equally support our stream of Judaism. The financial support the the ultra-Orthodox Rabbinate and its religious facilities receive from the government is a clear statement of bias towards one stream of Judaism over another. Specifically, it disheartens me that the government does not accept the authority of our Rabbis in issues of conversion, marriage, death, and other important Jewish life cycles.
Firstly, I would like to request that you recommend that our movement at an organizational level identify Jewish pluralism as a leading issue on its agenda and begin to work towards change.
Secondly, I want to request that when you call for support of Israel, that you specify that it is not unconditional support. Financially, we should be supporting organizations that align with the value system of our stream of Judaism.
Lastly, I am hoping that you can raise awareness to the lack of Jewish pluralism in Israel and call on our congregants to put pressure on Israel to become a more democratic and pluralistic society.
I believe that it is vital to the continued strength of Israel-Diaspora relations that Israel equally recognize, accept, and support all streams of Judaism.
Sincerely,
[Yourk to a friend (Opens in new window)

We have previously described methods for automatically determining the location class of a protein based on fluorescence microscope images of that protein. The classifiers we developed have proven capable of recognizing the patterns of all major subcellular structures and organelles with high accuracy. However, the features that described the patterns were calculated at the level of the cell. This becomes a problem when trying to recognize a pattern that is a mixture of two or more fundamental patterns, as in the case of a protein that localizes to more than one organelle. This will frequently be the case when doing a proteome-wide analysis of location patterns. In such case the feature values of the mixed pattern will not be similar to those of any of the constituent fundamental patterns. Therefore, for example a classifier that has already been trained to recognize the patterns of Golgi and lysosomes would fail to recognize a mixed Golgi-lysosome pattern as either Golgi or lysosomes. A separate classifier would have to be trained for every possible combination of fundamental patterns, which of course would be
not feasible due to the vast number of possible combinations, and
useless because one would like to obtain the classifications of the individual component patterns rather than getting a different classification for every possible combination of patterns.
The goal of this project is to develop a feature representation and a classification scheme capable of recognizing components of patterns independently.
Approach
This goal might be achievable if the features were calculated differently - a separate feature vector for each individual object as opposed to one per cell (an object here is defined as a contiguous region of above-threshold pixels). Classification can then be performed on each constituent object, and the results aggregated over the whole cell in the form of percentage membership in each base class. So, for example if 20% of the fluorescence intensity in the image belongs to objects that are classified as being part of a Golgi pattern and the remaining 80% to objects classified as lysosomal, one would know the protein localizes mainly to lysosomes, but is also found in the Golgi.
Results
This approach was applied to the same set of 2D images of HeLa cells as used in our previous 2D classification work. The cell-level patterns could be recognized with 61% accuracy. Considering that random accuracy would be 10% and that object-level features fail to take into account the relationships between the different objects in the cell, this result is surprizingly close to our previously achieved classification accuracy of 83% with cell-level features.
Conclusions
Even though there is room for improvement of the single cell classification accuracy, the results are encouraging because this method will allow classification of the location patterns proteins that localize to more than one organelle or subcellular structure. As we have mentioned in our previous work, the classification accuracy can be improved by classifying sets of images as opposed to single images. This is often possible because multiple images are typically acquired from the same specimen

When working as a team magic leader it means being able to connect with the other people . I personally love when that happens! When working with Kids it is magic anyway making it very easy. When working with adults it can be more challenging as there are bad habits and sometimes ego in the way. I feel like with art it is a intuitive process any way so tuning in is important . We all have ideas to share and to grow with and from and it is great when the magic works.
Learning to sing or play an instrument takes time and practice and working with others it is very important to nurture your new found creative outlet and to share that for creative critiquing and when done right can make mile milestones. Sitting in with people that play allot can help as well as going to open mics. When going to a open mic remember to pay attention and be polite do not take it personal and have thick skin as not everyone is helpful and there is lots of competition out there but keep going anyway. .

Kay Bailey Hutchison
stated on November 22, 2010 in an op-ed piece.:
Says that "on average, Democratic congressional districts received 81 percent more stimulus funds than Republicatchison, R-Texas, slammed the federal government's spending habits under President Barack Obama in a Nov. 22 op-ed piece in the Austin American-Statesman, singling out the roughly $800 billion s has been reported that, on average, Democratic congressional districts received 81 percent more stimulus funds than Republican districts."
She went on: "Unelected bureaucrats in Washington ... shouldn't be empowered to distribute taxpayer dollars with little or no intimate knowledge of a state or community's need — or, worse, guided by a political agenda that will serve some and neglect others."
First, just because Hutchison describes thisrom several readers who asked us to truth-test Hutchison's "81 percent" statement.
Next, some background: The stimulus, officially known as the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, includes tax cuts and spending programs designed to pump money into the economy, create jobs and end the recession.
The Obama administration created Recovery.gov so the public could track the stimulus spending, which is being spread out over 10 years. The website keeps tabs on only about a third of the money: the $275 billion that is being paid out by federal agencies through contracts, grants and loans to state and local governments, nonprofit groups and private companies. Not included are the tax breaks to individuals and businesses, additional money being sent to states for education and health care, and direct aid to individuals such as unemployment benefits.
Hutchison spokeswoman Courtney Sanders told us the 81 percent statistic came from a report by Veronique de Rugy, a senior research fellow at George Mason University's Mercatus Center, which describes itself as a "source for market-oriented ideas." Sanders sent us de Rugy's March 31 National Review Online blog post summarizing her statistical analysis of contract and grant data that recipients reported to Recovery.gov from February through September 2009.
The total spending in de Rugy's analysis: $170 billion, which constitutes 21 percent of stimulus dollars overall.
As part of her analysis, Rugy sorted the awards by congressional district and labeled each district based on the political party of its U.S. House member. One of her findings: "The average dollars awarded per Republican district is $260,675,663, while the average dollars awarded per Democratic district is $471,533,539." Those numbers reflect a Democratic average that is 81 percent greater than the Republican one.
Her work was quickly challenged by blogger Nate Silver of FiveThirtyEight, a site devoted to analyzing political numbers that became part of The New York Times' website in August 2010.
In his April 1 post, Silver wrote that de Rugy’s study "purporting to find a connection between stimulus spending and the partisanship of a district suffers from an obvious flaw" by overlooking an important factor in stimulus fund distribution: the location of each state’s capital city. Silver notes that according to de Rugy’s tally, the four districts that received the largest amounts of stimulus funding contain all or part of the capitals of the nation’s four biggest states: California, Texas, New York and Florida.
"This … makes perfect sense," Silver's post says. "A lot of stimulus funds are distributed to state agencies, which are then responsible for allocating and administering the funds to the presumed benefit of citizens throughout the state. These state agencies, of course, are usually located in or near the state capital."

By Maria Ramirez Uribe • July 13, 2022
According to Silver, de Rugy's data show that the 18 congressional districts that received the most stimulus funding contain part or all of a capital city. Of those 18 districts, only three are represented by a Republican, including the Texas 21st, whose congressman is Lamar Smith of San Antonio. His district, which ranked third in stimulus funding, includes the Texas Capitol complex and the University of Texas at Austin.
Another Austin-area district, Democrat Lloyd Doggett’s 25th, which contains part of downtown, ranks 14th. None of the 30 other Texas districts made the top 50 list.
According to Silver, the 78 congressional districts across the United States that contain part or all of a capital collectively received $118 billion, compared with $48 billion for the 357 districts that are not home to capitals.
Silver wrote that districts with state capitals "are much more likely to elect Democrats to Congress" because they are usually urban; are home to large numbers of government workers (who "may be more sympathetic to bigger government"); have highly educated populations; and often are home to large state universities.
Silver suggested that de Rugy adjust her analysis to take into account whether a district contains a capital. She did, and on April 7 blogged on National Review Online that "even after taking out the money spent through state capitals," Democratic districts still received 30 percent more stimulus funds, on average, than Republican districts.
De Rugy's research assistant at the Mercatus Center, Jakina Debnam, told us that after removing capital districts from the analysis, the average for Democratic and Republican districts fell to $143 million and $111 million, respectively, giving Democratic districts a 29 percent edge.
De Rugy raised the partisanship issue again in a Sept. 24 National Review Online post about a paper by two Georgia State University political scientists, Jeffrey Lazarus and Jason Reifler, who also analyzed the distribution of stimulus contracts and grants by congressional district. "They find that the partisan bias does exist," de Rugy's post says. "More interestingly, they explain how and why it happens."
In their paper, Lazarus and Reifler confirm that Democratic districts got more stimulus money than Republican ones. But they contend that the results reflect majority rule; Democrats were in the majority in the House and Senate when the stimulus plan passed. "Congressional majority parties routinely shape legislation to distribute federal funds according to their own policy priorities, and to politically benefit their own members," the article says.
An example of those priorities in the stimulus package, Lazarus told us, was the desire to improve health care. "So districts with a lot of hospitals got extra money," thanks to the stimulus, he said — and the districts with more hospitals are in urban areas that tend to be represented by Democrats.
Next, we briefed Sanders, Hutchison's spokeswoman, on the de Rugy analysis that excluded state-capital congressional districts. Sanders stuck by the 81 percent figure which, she noted, has not been retracted by de Rugy.
Still, we wondered why Hutchison's op-ed piece left the impression that she was talking about all stimulus funds, not just a portion of them. Sanders' response: "The op-ed does not say that — that's your interpretation."
To the Truth-O-Meter: Hutchison's statement accurately draws from a researcher's analysis showing that 81 percent of $170 billion in stimulus grants and contracts went to congressional districts represented by Democrats.
However, after an analyst suggested that stimulus data from districts with state capitals tended to skew the results, the researcher re-ran her analysis while excluding those districts. Using that methodology, Democratic districts on average received 29 percent more stimulus funds than GOP districts — not 81 percent.
Hutchison also fails to note that the $170 billion being scrutinized is about one-fifth of total stimulus spending, not the whole package. We rate Hutchison's statement Half True.

It's interesting to watch EC's squat, which reflects the "compromise" of the Olympic squat training she has and the power squat position generally advocated by Mark Rippetoe and the instructors at the Level 1 Certs. In Greg Everett's book on Oly lifting, he notes the imperative of remaining as upright as possible, and the need to allow the knees to move out in front of the feet to balance the upright posture. In contrast, Crossfit teaches knees over feet and hips back, which if one has a load positioned overhead (snatch or overhead squat), or racked (clean position) would result in forward lean and possible injury. For Crossfit's general fitness principals, the power position is no doubt a better way to go; but given the number of Olympic lifting inspired movements in Crossfit, there is a bit of a contradiction in the emphasis on knees no further forward than the feet.

Michael -
I don't think my squat is a compromise at all. It's where I was 9+ months ago - trying (desparately!) to get a the "Greg Everett" squat you mention. At CF Lvl 1 - the trainers stress "butt back" to be sure you are are rooted through your heels. However, if you can achieve a perfectly upright squat (with heels down), this is desirable bc of the transferrability to the snatch and the clean. The CF L1 does NOT teach that knees have to be back. Many ppl have the forward leaning torso at L1's not bc we want that, but rather, posterior awareness has not been developed. Further, on shorter ppl, the knees may not seem to travel that far forward, yet they still are very upright. The knees forward is obvious on me bc of leg length - there is no where else for them to go!

Stupid question: it seems everyone has their arms out. I'm used to NOT putting them out like that, but tend to go outside, doing it because it feels "natural" and "normal." Do I need to put them out like in the video? Or is it just preferable and optimal to do it that way? If it's the latter, would I be best served if I do it that way? Or is it just a personal preference?

Craig - I prefer the analogy to a gazelle ;)
Jason - Arms up is not necessary if you have a "perfect" squat. We often ask people to put their arms up to help keep their back in extension for the duration of the movement.

The Capitol Theater was opened December 19, 1922. The theater was next door to the Rialto Theater, and the Mirror Theater was on the west side. By 1929 it was operated by the Universal Pictures chain. By 1941 it was operated by Paramount Pictures Inc. through their subsidiary Hoblitzelle & O'Donnell.
The Capitol Theater specialized in Saturday westerns and serials. Popular during its hey-day, with the arrival of television, the old show house closed in 1956 and was torn down during the 1960’s.

The Capitol Theatre was designed by architect Bertram C. Hill. This item appeared in the July 13, 1922, issue of Manufacturers Record:
“Tex., Dallas—Popular Amusement Co. (Leon Gohlman and associates) will erect $50,000 theater, 1519-21 Elm St.; Bertram C. Hill Co., Archt. (Lately noted.)”
Two photos of the Capitol survive in the collection of Hill’s papers at Southern Methodist University.
matt54 on March 23, 2012 at 9:46 am
$50,000 doesn’t sound like a whole lot, to the $2,000,000 price tags for the Majestic and Palace, both built the previous year – even considering they were each about 2-3 times the seating capacity.
matt54 on March 23, 2012 at 9:49 am
BTW, Interstate did NOT open the Capitol, as it says in the introductory remarks, above; although, IIRC, the company did acquire it and the adjacent Rialto (Old Mill) at some time in the lives of these respective theatres.
dallasmovietheaters on November 2, 2013 at 11:33 pm
The “new” Capitol Theater opened on December 16, 1922 as a low-end first-run house. It went from a Popular Amusement Company property, to an independent under R.J. Stinnette and Ephram Charninsky, to an RKO Southern to Interstate and finally to Trans-Texas closing on December 26, 1957 as a second run house.It was demolished beginning on February 19, 1959 with its antique bricks repurposed for other projects.
The original Capitol Theater in Dallas was briefly home to the Capitol players from September to December in 1921 but burned down on December 26, 1921. The Capitol was rebranded from its other two nameplates: the original, Dallas Opera House opened in 1903, and then home to the Majestic Theater after the original Majestic burned down in 1917. The Capitol players were without a home. A decision was made immediately to rebuild the theater and try to keep the Capitol players from dispersing. But the process was slower than the players wanted. When the Capitol Theater was built and opened a year later, its players had gone. So the new Capitol Theater opened at 1521 Elm as a movie house which it remained until its closure.
It was a Popular Amusement Company theater with 1,200 air-cushioned seats, a $20,000 Barton organ and six piece orchestra opening December 16, 1922 with the film, “Slim Shoulders”. The theater’s amenities and interior weren’t quite up to the competition, especially with the Majestic, Melba and Hippodrome. The Bertram C. Hill architected exterior of the building had an inviting style for theater row and it might be said that the attention was mostly there as the interior lacked what palaces provided in that era. Popular Amusement closed the theater within a year’s time. But the Capitol reopened as an independent the same year under R. J. Stinnette and Eprhram Charninsky (up until his death in 1928). The first film was “Six Days” on Sept. 20, 1923, the Capitol positioned itself as a lower price Elm/Theater Row house. Its true heyday was the mid-1920s.
By early 1929, fortunes sagged for the Capitol as sound technology and innovations were being adopted more quickly along theater row than the Capitol likely could afford. The Capitol downgraded to a double-bill second run house, the first on Elm Street since 1915. But later that year, the theater strategically got an exclusive deal to book RKO films as it moved into the sound era on July 29th. As the original theater wasn’t exactly soundproofed, the interior was bathed in celotex as any interior panache was buried under soundproofing and wall coverings.
In 1930, RKO Southern took over the Capitol and closed it for ten days to put in a newer sound system and more wall treatment. Almost immediately, RKO Southern was in dire economic straits and on June 2, 1931 the Capitol Theater closed in part due to the lack of a real air conditioning system and in part to stop paying labor. It closed again in December 1931 and reopened in January 1932 after Christmas. In 1933, RKO Southern shut down declaring bankruptcy.
Interstate took over the theater and under the venerable circuit, the Capitol finally hit its stride as improvements which included a modern air conditioning system making things more comfortable inside. The Capitol played mostly double feature westerns and held a handful of premieres of lesser “B” films and occasional exploitation fare. World premieres of Republic’s Roy Rogers film “Under Western Stars” and George Harriman’s exploitative “Tell Your Children” took place. Personal appearances by Rogers and Smiley Burnette, Monogram’s Tex Ritter, and “Song of the Range” stars Jimmy Wakely and Lasses White were among the stars who showed up.
The U.S. v. Paramount case that led to the famous consent decree in which Paramount agreed to separate itself from domestic theater exhibition selling out joint ventures such as Interstate and Publix. In a second wave of dispersals following the Varsity and Dal-Sec, seven theaters including the Capitol and the Rialto were sold in one transaction by Interstate to Louis Novy’s Trans-Texas Theater circuit on Feb. 24, 1954. Trans-Texas struggled along with all of theater row trying to battle population shifts that were beginning to doom most of the downtown houses.
On Oct. 2, 1957, Trans-Texas closed the Capitol to prepare to show Spanish language films after a remodeling. That rebranding began on Nov. 10, 1957 opening with El Bolero de Raquel starring Cantinflas. A dismal failure, the policy discontinued just five weeks later and the money spent in improvements and marketing were lost. The theater flailed for another week returning to second-run fare on Dec. 20, 1957 opening with “Hot Rod Girls” and “Girls in Prison.” A week later, the theater closed for good and its second to last double feature was “Phantom from 10,000 Leagues” and “The Day the World Ended.” The theater remained empty for just a little over a year and on February 19, 1959, the theater was torn down to make way for a parking lot. As noted, the bricks were considered distinctive if not historically interesting and salvaged for other projects.

This is a guest post from Erica Sunarjo at TheWordPoint.
With over seven years of website localization experience, I can tell you one thing for sure.
Without localization, your ecommerce website won’t bring you even half of its potential revenue.
Besides, without proper translation, a website just looks sloppy.
If, for instance, you ship products to China and consider the region to be part of your target audience, why not localize the whole website to make navigation simpler?
Otherwise, you may have translations that don’t make sense—which can cost you visitors, conversions, and loyal customers.
Think of it this way: What kind of website would you rather shop with? Preferably, one that has easy-to-read copy in your language, pricing in your currency, and a checkout that makes sense for you.
Virtually everyone feels this way, meaning localization is vital to your process.
See our localization guide here.
Digging deeper into website translation and localization
Let’s get back to the “potential revenue” part we mentioned earlier.
When launching their online retail platforms, ecommerce companies have certain expectations regarding the revenue they’ll receive as a result. They determine when their startups will break even, taking into consideration several factors:
target audience outreach
expected net income
time factor
These are the constituents of ROI, but ROI isn’t always a precise number.
To calculate it, you also need to take into account the factors that can have a negative impact on it.
If you launch an international ecommerce platform, having little to no localization can negatively impact your business.
Let’s look at it from a different perspective.
According to Statista, retail ecommerce sales worldwide are expected to reach $6.5 billion by 2023. This means that the number of people shopping with ecommerce platforms in 2019 will double by 2023:
The biggest ecommerce retailers understand this, which is why you see powerful players investing in web development, creating or modifying websites that deliver a seamless user experience, and doing it all with localization in mind.
Website translation and localization statistics
Don’t just take our word for it. Read some of the localization statistics below to see how localizing positively impacts businesses worldwide.
Language related services have an annual growth rate of 5.52%
Content that is locally targeted has 6x more engagement
86% of localized campaigns outperformed English campaigns in click-throughs and conversions
72.4% of global consumers prefer to use their native language when shopping online
78% of online shoppers are more likely to make a purchase on online stores that are localized
On average, companies have international footprints in 7 different markets and translate their content into 7 different languages
94% of companies plan to increase their localization expenditures
Localization is more than translation
Today, localization is no longer just a matter of website translation. Localization is now influencing digital marketing and social media marketing; it impacts target audience demographics. Multi-language marketing is a normal part of how businesses appeal to customers worldwide.
And since localization has such a big influence on web design, web development, and even digital marketing, ecommerce platforms shouldn’t neglect it.
Website translation is (and should continue to be) an important part of UX and design plans. After all, localization doesn’t just impact user experience—it has a tangible influence on the revenue, website traffic, brand exposure, etc.
1. More languages equal more visitors
When Neil Patel, the founder of KissMetrics, decided to translate his website into 82 languages, this decision was influenced by an unusual discovery.
He went over the latest internet use statistics, where he found that China and India have more internet users than the U.S. (one and two billion, as opposed to just 300 million).
He started wondering whether website translation was the solution for full traffic optimization. And it was.
Website translation helped him increase traffic by 47%. Web design and web development of an ecommerce platform should be carried out with website translation in mind from the beginning.
Even a small ecommerce startup launched in a bilingual country should have a website available in at least these two languages.
So, if you open your ecommerce startup in the U.S., consider launching your website in English and Spanish. This goes without saying for big ecommerce retailers.
2. Trust and brand perception
There are plenty of websites that aren’t fully translated, but a partial translation is possible only in a limited number of cases, like the translation of certain definitions or measures. But ecommerce websites don’t fall under this category.
Partial translation of a website undermines the trust of the consumers towards the brand and negatively impacts the perception of the brand.
When shopping online, consumers expect ecommerce retailers to provide:
high-quality product information
easy access to all pages
transparent and clear payment information
easy-to-use interface
You can invest virtually endless resources in web development and web design, but a lack of website translation will inevitably have a negative impact on your efforts.
Some consumers may forgive the absence of localized product information, but they won’t forgive a lack of clear payment instructions. If someone can’t easily make a purchase from your site, they will leave unhappy.
3. Website translation is in the UX and design code of ethics
With the high availability of translation apps and localization plugins and services, lack of website translation can no longer be excused.
However, you need to be careful with the services you employ to localize your website, since the localization of a website isn’t about word-to-word translation. It’s about making the text linguistically and culturally appropriate.
During web development and web design, you need to take into account that, with some languages, phrases and sentences will take more space on the page due to different length of words and some syntactic differences.
You can see it on the example of in English and Hebrew:
Website localization shares the unstated motto of UX design “Do no harm,” thus occupying a special place in UX and web design code of ethics.
Indeed, the lack of website translation can harm user experience, and you can bet many of those users won’t return.
4. Website translation is an inalienable part of UX and design
We made it clear.
Since there are so many aspects that website translation and localization impact (including user experience, website traffic, and the success of your digital marketing efforts), investing in website translation is a must.
Wrap up
If your ecommerce venue has already reached the international level, make sure you don’t repeat the partial translation mistake—localize fully.
And, if you’re just about to launch your ecommerce startup, do it with website translation and localization in mind, as it has so much impact on your success.

Weight problem
I have a weight problem. No, I'm not overweight. I'm not underweight either. In fact my BMI is a very healthy 22.4. So what's the problem then? Nothing . . . for me. The problem is for everyone else - my weight has been stable for the past 20 years, and that pisses people off.
"Fuck you, Doc! I've been trying to lose weight all my life!"
Yeah, that's exactly what I'm talking about. My body just doesn't hold calories. Oh, I may possibly put on a kg or two on holiday by, for example, eating 6 lobster tails at the seafood buffet one night (yes, really), but all I have to do to drop that weight is switch from sugary drinks to water when I get home, and I'm back to my usual svelteness within a few days.
Hmm, I can hear several readers' teeth grinding and . . . is that screaming? Maybe I should stop.
No dammit, I know I'm torturing some of the more here, but bear with me for a moment, because this subject is too important. It turns out I'm not the only one with this sort of weight problem. One of my readers named Lauren (not her real name) emailed me a link to a very interesting story written by a student at Yale University named Frances Chan (her real name. No really, it is. Seriously.). Frances, studying at Yale University, recently documented her difficulty not with her low weight, but with her school's medical professionals' perception of her low weight. She's been 90 lbs since high school, and she shares a slight frame with her entire family. But after a trip to student health for a breast lump, she received a letter about a "concern resulting from your recent visit." There is no better way to scare the shit out of a woman than telling her something like that. Frances was appropriately concerned - was the lump cancer? She was too young to have breast cancer! What could they possibly want?
Fear not, the lump was indeed benign. She was called back due to concern that she was too skinny. The clinician then dropped a bomb directly on her head:
I would {be forced to} meet with her for weekly weigh-ins. These appointments were not optional. The clinician threatened to put me on medical leave if I did not comply: "If it were up to the administration, school would already be out for you. I'm just trying to help."
Not optional? What?? Frances had been healthy her entire life - thin, but healthy. But because this clinician thought she was too underweight, she was forced to meet weekly to get weighed like a boxer or a beauty queen. Ok, bad examples. But wait, it gets worse: in addition to her mandatory weekly weigh-ins, she was also made to see a nutritionist and a mental health counselor, have urine and blood tests done, and even get an EKG to test her heart. Shockingly, all her tests were normal. You know, because she was, and always had been, completely healthy.
Frances was told she had to gain 2 pounds or else risk getting expelled from one of the most prestigious universities in the world. So what did she do? She dutifully abandoned her normal, healthy diet in favour of the exact thing that every nutritionist in the world tells us to avoid - a high-carbohydrate diet, supplementing meals with ice cream and worthless empty calorie snacks. She even resorted to taking the lift rather than stairs to burn fewer calories.
Her unhealthy efforts were rewarded with exactly the two pounds she desired. Believing she had succeeded in fulfilling her quest and thinking her ordeal was at an end, she was told that she had to gain three more pounds.
More ice cream? Cake? Doughnuts? Oreos?
No. Frances had had enough. She abandoned her pursuit and decided to skip all future mandatory appointments. Instead, she did what she should have done from the beginning - focus her attention on her studies rather than some bullshit witch hunt which tried to make a healthy person sick.
I understand and appreciate what Yale was trying to do. Eating disorders are very prevalent among college-aged women, and they can be just as dangerous as obesity, if not more so. But the way they went about it in Frances' case is all wrong. Threatening expulsion for non-compliance was reprehensible. And trying to force the girl to gain weight was simply ridiculous.
Frances' story angered me on several levels. A well-timed phone call to her family verifying her usual weight could have prevented this debacle from the start. Short of that, Yale should have minded their own goddamned business. Forcing treatment on someone who doesn't want it 1) is unethical and 2) ostracises the patient, especially when that treatment is unnecessary.
At the risk of sounding condescending (which is not my intention, I assure you), I'm proud of Frances for finally standing up for herself and refusing further compliance. I do wonder how things turned out for her.
Frances, if you are reading this, I sincerely hope the good-intentioned folks at Yale came to their senses and that you were able to resolve the issue. If you were not, then yes I would like fries with that.
I kid, I kid.
Thanks to Lauren (still not her real name) for bringing this to my attention. And thanks to Frances (still her real name) for speaking out. To read Frances' original post, click here.

I definitely agree. BMI doesn't account for build. Back in college my wife's BMI was around 16. No eating disorder and not too skinny, she's just built tiny. As long as she stays active she can eat and eat without gaining weight. All you need to do is look at her and you'll see she's fine, no scale needed.

What happened to a patient's right to refuse? Privacy? Since when does HIPAA allow a practitioner to release info to the school (or work) without explicit consent?

When I was in high school and college I did have an eating disorder. Fortunately for me, Karen Carpenter hadn't died yet and no one was concerned by my 90 pounds on a 5'/2" body. Take it from me, that kind of treatment would not have motivated me in the least to gain an ounce. A true anorexic like an alcoholic isn't going to be helped until they see the need for it. Treatment should only be forced on them when they are in immediate danger of dying.

That sounds borderline illegal to me. Here in the UK that certainly would not be allowed to happen, and pretty sure the GMC (medics regulatory body) would have something to say about it to the doctor involved.
We get taught in our medical school that unless the patient has been sectioned, or otherwise incapacitated they are allowed to refuse treatment. This whole situation sounds completely alien to me!

That really is awful. If my school ever did that to me, I would have to really think about whether or not I would want to continue going to that school.
I have my own weight problem, that is a direct result of a serious knee injury that occurred a couple years back (my knee dislocated as I made my way down the steps to my concrete back patio. I tore several muscles around my knee, burst blood vessels, dented cartilage, and broke a small piece of the corner of my knee cap off, and fractured my femur, all from falling onto said patio. I have two small scars from the surgery too.) I was put on bed rest, and I went from 5' 2" and 130 lbs to 5'2" and 240 lbs in about 1-2 months. I have since tried to lose the weight I gained, but exercise causes me to become incapacitated from pain in my knee. I'm currently trying to lose weight through weight loss pills. But back to the point, if my school told me that I needed to lose my weight or face getting kicked out, I don't think I would continue to go - whether or not that school were some prestigious school.

I'm usually not one to comment but this whole fat/skinny shaming stuff always manages to get me ranting.
I like to think I'm a perfectly reasonable size, I'm 5'6" and 120 lbs- which even my family doctor says is a really good place to be. However I work retail, and although my home dept is I/A often I cover shifts in Plus Sizes.
I have no problem with people's weight, I was kinda hefty up until middle school so I'm in no place to judge. My job is to help people, treat them how I would want to be treated if I walked into a store, etc. I would like to think I do a good job as well but...
More than often I would have anticipated- I have had women refuse my help in that department because I am an 'einnie minnie' that 'doesn't understand' and clearly knows nothing about the troubles of bigger women!
Part of me understands that they're probably treating me this way because they're used to society treating them so. It's probably more of a self defense strategy, but I really some comments I feel are very.... unnecessary? I hear 'do you even eat?' even more often than 'where is the bathroom?'. Sometimes I'll literally be eating on the floor (yeah we're not supposed to eat on the job but during longer shifts I sneak snacks- in reality am hungry like All the time).
What I find most frustrating however, is that I can't even eat a lot of the food I would like to. Of course I don't feel like explaining this to every single person that walks into the department. I'm here to help you find pant sizes, not throw myself a pity party at your expense but...
A couple of years ago I was diagnosed with Gilbert's Syndrome, which is just a fancy way of saying that my liver low-key hates me, beef, and other things livers are supposed to like. So basically if I don't eat the right salads, I turn yellow (I'm not making this up haha- the jaundice is real). Food tastes a lot grosser than it used to. Sometimes I want to eat food that I remember tasted great, and it really doesn't taste the same. I would gladly take a couple of pounds for the chance to enjoy food again any day.
Anyway sorry for the long rant- the point is people shouldn't make assumptions about other people's weight. Heavy or einnie minnie, you never know what kind of underlying health problems people can have. The End.
On a side note, this is the third day into binge reading your blog Doc, I'm really glad I stumbled upon it- these stories are true treasures!

Firstoff, kudos to Frances; her weight is her business. I'm also curious about the end result, hopefully all went well.
Magy, I understand where you're coming from. Unfortunately, larger women are often treated rudely in public, ofttimes by petite/skinny people. My wife has dealt with this her entire life. Even at a healthy weight, my wife is 5'11 and broad-shouldered. This leads to a lot of "big girl" and "is that a man" crap.
I'm on the other end of the spectrum, a little past where Doc is. Most of my life, my weight was fairly consistent around 170. Due to illness, I lost 30 of those in about a week. Since then, I have been unable to put weight back on. Best my doctor and I have come up with is my metabolism is dialed in at 170, and refuses to adapt to my new weight. So thanksgiving dinner will make me gain a couple of pounds at most, and be gone in a few days. Not eating regularly results in a steady decline, which is coumpounded by having very little appetite most of the time. So it's easy to forget to eat. Thankfully, I found stability (initially) through medical marijuana, and more recently with Dronabinol.
Please, no Jack Sprat comments.

I was very, very happy to find that this story went public, and that in the process Frances "was contacted by other Yale students who had encountered similar travails."
This is how you deal with abuses of power. You go public. There can't NOT be consequences for this sort of shit, or it perpetuates.
I fully understand how difficult it can be: on the back of your mind you're always thinking "this is one of the best, most prestigious universities, I got this far, I can't afford to make them angry, I have to comply". Fear is always the great motivator in abuses of power, isn't it? It's also the same motivator in a plain old armed robbery. Kudos for Frances! I hope this story inspires others to stand up against any more heavy-handed idiocy!
By the way, it's probably worth noting that she didn't just "go back to her studies", but rather went public with it. I.e., she didn't just ignore the stupidity in hopes it went away (as then Yale might REALLY have done what they had threatened, unchecked, and presumably "justified" on the bases of her missing "mandatory exams"); she fought it with public awareness. That might be worth adding to the main body of text somewhere.
You don't lie down and take this kind of shit. You take your stand! You stop the bullshit train dead on its tracks, for you and for everyone else!

April 4, 2011— -- For Michael Prager, food used to be much more than a way to get his daily doses of nutrients or to satisfy a craving for a tasty treat.
"From an early age, I ate for reasons that other people didn't, and I ate in amounts that other people didn't," Prager said. "I stole money from my mother's purse and I stole candy from stores before I was 10 years old."
As an adult, he often stocked up on junk food after work and ate almost all of it. Food controlled him so much, in fact, he felt the need to stop for food after getting off at midnight so he wouldn't have to go back out in the middle of the night.
Now 53, it took years of binge eating and yo-yo dieting to realize he had an addiction to food.
"I used food as a coping mechanism. It's similar to the way people use drugs, or alcohol, or shopping or sex."
That's an idea supported by a new study that found food may indeed be just like a drug.
Click here to see if you could possibly have an addiction to food.
Researchers led by Yale University doctoral student Ashley Gearhardt discovered that women who exhibit more signs of food addiction, when shown a picture of a milkshake and then given a taste of it, had more activity in areas of the brain associated with "craving" than women who showed fewer signs of food addiction. The women who showed more signs of food addiction had less activity in the part of the brain that decreases the desire to eat.
In order to measure food addiction, the researchers used a scale similar to the one used to measure drug addiction.
"We got interested in this research because there have been a lot of interesting findings in looking at parallels between obesity and substance dependence. Studies have shown brain pattern similarities," said Gearhardt.
"Anticipation of a delectable treat provided the greatest activation, even more so than getting a taste of it," said Bonnie Levin, director of the Division of Neuropsychology at the University of Miami School of Medicine. Levin was not involved in the study.
Stigma Surrounds Food Addicts
Food addicts exhibit many of the symptoms as those addicted to drugs and alcohol, including an obsession or preoccupation with food, binge eating and a lack of control over eating. Food addicts are often criticized about their inability to say no to overeating.
Not all food addicts are obese, and not everyone who overeats is a food addict.
"We saw the same brain activation patterns in lean participants as well as the obese ones," said Gearhardt. "BMI [body mass index] is not a good indicator about whether you're out of control with eating."
Experts say there's a lot of stigma surrounding food addiction, including the assertion that it's just an excuse for overeating and avoiding personal responsibility. In reality, food addicts are driven to eat.
"Part of the brain responds to anticipation of a reward," said Levin. "Some people can resist it and others cannot."
"I wanted no part of the realization that I had an addiction," said Prager. "Everyone thinks obesity is a matter of sloth and that obese people need to try harder."
Although it may seem that an addiction to heroin, cocaine or alcohol is more dangerous, experts say an addition to food is just as serious. Obesity is associated with a number of serious health problems as well as soaring health care costs.
"We already see such a large amount of people struggling with obesity, but kids are also eating a lot of unhealthy foods. The earlier people are exposed, the more likely they are to develop an addiction," said Gearhardt.
The study's authors also hope future studies can determine how the brain responds to food ads and whether certain foods are addictive. With that knowledge, they believe, advertising can be used to send healthier messages about food.
Addicted to Food," premieres on the Oprah Winfrey Network. The eight-episode series follows food addicts and others with eating disorders at a treatment facility with the goal of addressing issues that led to their problems with eating and finding their way to recovery.
Prager knows all about that long road to recovery. After years of therapy, he realizes now that food no longer controls him. He even wrote a book about it.
But as with most addicts, it's a battle he fights every day.
"There's no such thing as solving something forever. You have to take it one day at a time."To read Michael Prager's blog click here.
The following questions are part of the survey done by researchers at Yale University to help determine if you could have a food addiction.
Answer options for this section:0 - Never1 - Once per month2 – 2-4 times per month3 - 2-3 times per week4 - 4+ times per week
1) I find myself consuming certain foods even though I am no longer hungry. THRESHOLD: 4
2) I worry about cutting down on certain foods.THRESHOLD: 4
3) I feel sluggish or fatigued from overeating. THRESHOLD: 3 or 4
4) I have spent time dealing with negative feelings from overeating certain foods, instead of spending time in important activities such as time with family, friends, work, or recreation. THRESHOLD: 4
5) I have had physical withdrawal symptoms such as agitation and anxiety when I cut down on certain foods. (Do NOT include caffeinated drinks: coffee, tea, cola, energy drinks, etc.) THRESHOLD: 3 OR 4
6) My behavior with respect to food and eating causes me significant distress. THRESHOLD: 3 OR 4
7) Issues related to food and eating decrease my ability to function effectively (daily routine, job/school, social or family activities, health difficulties). THRESHOLD: 3 OR 4
Answer options for this section:No Yes
IN THE PAST 12 MONTHS…
8) I kept consuming the same types or amounts of food despite significant emotional and/or physical problems related to my eating. YES or NO
9) Eating the same amount of food does not reduce negative emotions or increase pleasurable feelings the way it used to. YES or NO
TO MEET THE FOOD ADDICTION THRESHOLD PEOPLE NEED TO MEET THE THRESHOLD FOR EITHER QUESTION 6 OR 7 AND MEET THE THRESHOLD FOR 3 OR MORE OF THESE QUESTIONS (1-5, 8-9). IF YOU MEET THE FOOD ADDICTION THRESHOLD, THE RESEARCHERS AT YALE SAY YOU SHOULD SPEAK WITH A DOCTOR.

Welcome to the web site for Third Cherry Creek Townhouse Corp., Denver. Welcome to the web site for Third Cherry Creek Townhouse Corp., Denver.
plant Select's 1st HOA AWARD WINNER: Cherry Creek 3!
Why changing our landscapes improved our community and saved lots of water...
More than 90 Plant Select recommended varieties are planted in the neighborhood, including trees, shrubs, perennials and ground covers.
What the experts are saying...
Panayoti Kelaidis, senior curator, Denver Botanic Gardens: "This HOA is the only one I am aware of in Colorado (if not the West) that has undertaken such a systematic and comprehensive approach to water conservation: the results are stunning! Enormous savings on water and sewage costs. Conservation of precious resources into the bargain! But dollars and cents are nothing compared to the camaraderie that has been fostered in this group through the creation of a community garden, by neighbors planting more interesting, more beautiful flowers in their gardens. People who never knew one another now chat together on a first name basis as they admire the beauty! Can you put a price tag on that?"
Ross Shrigley, executive director, Plant Select:
“My first visit to Cherry Creek 3 HOA opened my eyes to the efforts this HOA has put forth to make positive landscape changes. It was inspirational enough to recognize that Plant Select® needed to offer a category for an HOA award. My research of other HOAs made it obvious that no other HOA deserves an award more than the Cherry Creek 3 Townhouse Corp. They have gone far above, making the required significant, measurable changes in their landscape to earn this award - and they are not planning to stop. Their years of making changes and promoting the mission of Plant Select® reflect a forward-thinking leadership that recognizes that Colorado needs to change what is planted in our landscapes. Those needed changes include increasing water conservation, creating habitat-friendly plants and using sustainable landscape practices (irrigation) for our semi-desert steppe climate. Cherry Creek 3 is one of the few HOA's in Colorado that has put forth the grand effort of bringing everyone in their association together and on board with these changes. That is no small feat!
Landscaping changes: Here's how we used to look...
Today: Low-water, colorful plants & award-winning appearance
Landscaping, other changes = gigantic water savings
The past decade has been a world of dramatic changes outside the neighborhood homes. Built in 1965, Cherry Creek 3 used landscaping of that era, which included juniper bushes and lava rock outside fronts of homes, plus an estimated 345,000 square feet of Kentucky bluegrass turf area.
In 2010, at the request of former President Don Ireland, the Board of Directors decided to give the community a brand-new look, launching the multi-year Landscape Improvement Program (LIP).
One of the first areas targeted was the landscaping surrounding the pool. New trees, bushes and perennial flowers were added to give pool visitors a pleasant look to the area.
After the LIP was approved, about 50 front planting beds (owned in front of each home by the HOA) were changed annually. It took 6 years to complete the initial do-over because of second-stage drought alert in 2013.
Today, with the majority of the work done, Cherry Creek 3 strives to be the model of water efficiency with native and xeric plants - many recommended by Plant Select - that provide beauty throughout the growing season and help our pollinators survive. Xeriscaping is not landscaping using rocks and cactus plants. A well-developed xeriscape uses wood mulches (rather than rocks) and a colorful array of plants suited for the region. Our neighborhood has greatly added to bio-diversity with the addition of more than 100 plant and tree species since 2010!
Cherry Creek 3's transformation has been dramatic for long-time owners. Gone are the dying old poodle-sheared junipers and outdated lava rock outside home fronts. Although smaller landscaping improvements continue annually, anyone who lived here a decade ago will notice the vibrant, colorful landscape changes as the various plants bloom from early spring through late fall. These changes have positively impacted the Association's water bills and have made a positive environmental change for pollinators who visit the neighborhood. The design scheme is called "Wildscaping" because it gives the feel of plants being allowed to thrive naturally, as opposed to looking like a "paint by number" design. Wildscaping has become popular throughout the western U.S. in recent years - partly due to water concern and also to show concern for pollinators.
FYI: Plant Select ( ) is a cooperative, non-profit organization comprised of Colorado State University and Denver Botanic Gardens in cooperation with several growers' associations, garden centers and nurseries
* In approving the LIP, the Board listed three goals for the effort:
* Improve the beauty and look of Cherry Creek 3
* Increase property values
* Conserve water
These plants thrive in the ever-changing weather of the Front Range and are drought tolerant. When first planted, residents can help by keeping children and pets away from the news plants. Dogs should not be allowed to urinate on new plants, either. Patience is another necessity since it takes several years for the new plants to adjust to their new soil and environments. Once that occurs (each plant is different), it begins to grow. Plants were also selected to avoid becoming giant-sized.
* Unlike traditional landscapes, Cherry Creek 3 utilized a "Wildscaping" plan to showcase plants in a more natural setting. This landscaping style is vastly different from the look of, for example, an English estate. Nationally, the establishment of pollinator-friendly landscapes is a hot topic. Cornell University's Lab of Ornithology, has worked with the Nature Conservancy to create a Habitat Network online. In its July 2018 newsletter (read the story on the Awards & Honors page), HOAs and their participation in preserving nature in urban areas, was a featured topic. Cherry Creek 3 was among the HOAs listed for its efforts.
Denver Water estimates as much as 55% of all water purchased by their typical residential customer annually is used in outdoor irrigation (54%) and toilets (13%). The Association partnered with Denver Water and CC3 residents in 2008, replacing more than 425 old toilets with water-efficient models.
As part of an outdoor irrigation agreement between Third Cherry Creek and Denver Water from 2010-15, the Association replaced more than 1,500 old sprinklers with more efficient MP Rotar Head models and made changes to some of the neighborhood's irrigation clocks. In return, Denver Water promised rebates based on water savings during the summer watering season.
So far, the results have been great. The HOA used nearly 36 million gallons of water in 2008 but now uses much less - approximately 20-22 million gallons a year. Most of the savings have been realized by controlling outdoor water costs. Denver Water issued more than $40,000 in rewards for its irrigation efficiency (2010-15). The rewards, in addition to HOA budget funding, helped pay for the LIP progress annually.
The HOA strongly monitors water consumption each month and constantly urges residents to conserve water because water and sewage costs are among the Association's highest annual expenses. (The monthly HOA maintenance fee would be significantly higher if water-conservation practices didn't occur.) In fact, the Association offers owners incentives for replacing water devices in their homes with more efficient ones. (See water-conservation page for additional details).
A new philosophy: "If you don't walk or play on it, you probably don't need it in bluegrass!"
The expense and availability of water in Colorado and the west is an ongoing topic. Many municipalities are now limiting the amount of bluegrass that can be installed in new housing developments while other places are offering home owners money to rip out bluegrass and replace it with low-water planting alternatives.
Keeping with that theme, Cherry Creek 3 has replaced many unused blue grass sections. The largest such example was the removal of a turf area where the Community Garden was installed. (Gardens do not require as much water as a lawn because of regulated self-watering).
Instead of replacing a turf area with sod at the conclusion of a sewer and water-repair effort, a "Conservancy Area" was planted.
In several other places, flowers and bushes have replaced unused lawn areas.
Cherry Creek 3 also has planted several dozen trees since 2015 to add to the beauty of the neighborhood as well as provide shelter for birds and pollinators.
Tours of Cherry Creek 3's landscaping changes and water-saving efforts have been the subject of tours by Denver Botanic Gardens, Colorado Native Plant Society, City of Westminster HOAs and others. If you have questions, please e-mail former Board President Don Ireland:
Dog Tuff Grass: In summer 2015, the HOA began experimenting with Dog Tuff grass after receiving some of the grass from Plant Select and Colorado State University. The Dog Tuff grass (at lower right in photo section above) is planted next to fences by 9086 and 9146 E. Nassau. Some people claim this new species could be a trend-setter for yards throughout the state in the future. The reason? Dog Tuff grass uses little water, needs mowed less frequently, Is soft on bare feet and doesn't yellow when dogs urinate on it (hence the term, "dog tuff.") Dog Tuff grass was named as an official Plant Select recommendation for 2016. The web site for this new grass is at
Award-winner horticulturalist Kelly Gummons of Denver cultivated the Dog Tuff grass. See his video on this new turf grass on the Plant Select web site (click here):

DENVER, CO - SEPTEMBER 17: Emmanuel Sanders #10 and wide receiver Demaryius Thomas #88 of the Denver Broncos celebrate after a first quarter touchdown against the Dallas Cowboys at Sports Authority Field at Mile High on September 17, 2017 in Denver, Colorado. (Photo by Justin Edmonds/Getty Images)
Emmanuel Sanders is coming off a disappointing season in which the veteran receiver produced only 47 catches for 555 yards and, given his age, it does not come as a shock that the transitioning Denver Broncos may look to move on from him in the near future. With that in mind, Nicki Jhabvala of the Denver Post is reporting just that to the tune of the Broncos shopping the pass-catcher on the trade market.
Though no specifics were given in the report, Sanders has a salary cap figure of almost $11 million for the 2018 season if the Broncos keep him on board and, considering Denver’s offensive struggles, that would be at least a mild surprise. Beyond the buzz about trades for both Sanders and fellow wide receiver Demaryius Thomas, principle decision maker John Elway isn’t really committing to anything, at least publicly. Via 247Sports:
“I think as we get closer and as we get into free agency once we get back to the office, start looking at availability and what?s out there, [we] rank the free agents that are available. Then we will also look at ourselves, look where we are and look where we are budget-wise and cap-wise. As we gather information once we get back, we?ll start putting the plan together with all of those considerations going into the decision.?
Sanders was a key member of a Super Bowl team in Denver and, even with 2017 in play, he remains an intriguing piece. Still, he isn’t a bargain when it comes to his current contract and that, as always, throws things into peril. Stay tuned.

Cardinal George Pell, accused in 2017 of sexual abuse, was transferred in 2019 to a prison in Melbourne, Australia, sentenced by his country's justice system to six years in prison. Despite the lack of evidence and under fire from the media, the Cardinal served more than a year there, after which the Supreme Court, in a unanimous verdict, acquitted him and cleared all charges.
The first part of his Prison Journal has just been published in Poland. Asked by the Polish Catholic agency KAI on October 27, 2021, Cardinal Pell spoke about his “human experience” and the future of the Church.
The former Archbishop of Sydney and Prefect of the Secretary of the Economy spent more than a year for his alleged crime in a unit where inmates are sentenced to solitary confinement and never meet. The humiliation of being in prison is the first of the crosses: “It was a humane punishment, and it was certainly not a stay in a hotel,” said the cardinal.
“I knew I was innocent. I was aware that the most important judgment awaited me before the Creator. However, the Australian prelate does not hide “having never been absolutely certain to be exonerated during the Australian trials.”
In his Journal the cardinal specifies that when asked about undeserved suffering, he had the habit of answering that “the Son of God, Jesus, was not given a walk in the park.”
In this maximum security prison, there were “major criminals who chose to stay that way,” says the prelate, but also other prisoners who “clearly distinguish good from evil and recognize the existence of good.” An inmate regularly corresponds with the cardinal, who describes him as a "”friend.”
Aged 80, the Australian prelate will not be able to participate in the next conclave. However, he does not hesitate to mention what he would like to know before the conclave.
“I would like to tell the future Pope that one of the most important challenges is to maintain the purity of the apostolic tradition. We are servants and defenders of the teachings of Christ and the apostles. We are not allowed to remove parts of it or to belittle it. We are not the masters of the apostolic tradition.”
Recalling that the apostasy is spreading, Cardinal Pell clarifies: “In a way, we are coming back to what society was like in the Roman Empire.” It was “a brutal society of slavery, violence, and infanticide. People did not recognize their obligations to sick people.”
“Pity and compassion were seen as bad qualities, weaknesses. People did not believe in forgiveness. The pagan society of the future will be much more difficult and less lenient than our society.”
The prelate asks that “good Christians and people of good will join forces,” in order to “limit and control any bad changes.” And he stresses the need for people of good will who have the courage to act on their own convictions.

A SIC code is the ‘Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activities’ of the commercial premises where you collect waste. These codes are intended to help classify businesses according to their type of economic activity.
You can find the correct SIC code for your location by searching on the Companies House website. Once you’ve found your location, click through to view the company information and look for ‘Nature of Business’ (SIC).
If your commercial premises is part of a larger company, for example, a supermarket that has multiple locations, simply search for the name of the group/corporation and use that SIC code - it doesn’t need to be for that one location.
In some cases, one or more SIC codes can be attributed to a business. If this applies to your location, just choose one SIC code to fill out your waste transfer note form.

Professor Ayodele Ogunye, the Foundation Dean, Faculty of Chemical Engineering, University of Lagos (UNILAG), has described as justifiable the strike embarked upon by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).
Ogunye spoke on the sidelines of his 80th birthday lecture titled: “Global Energy Transition and its Impact on Nigeria”, organised by the Professor Ayo Francis Ogunye Trust Foundation University of Lagos (PATOTFUL).
Speaking at the ceremony which was held at the Ade Ajayi Main Auditorium of UNILAG, he said an agreement reached between the university union and former military ruler, General Ibrahim Babangida led to the establishment of the education tax fund specifically for allotment to the tertiary education sector.
ABamented that the disbursement of the funds to other sectors is a misplaced priority and should be reversed and adequately allotted for the purpose for which it was established.
Emphasising that the revitalization of the nation’s public universities is not negotiable, Ogunye said the excellent facilities that made the Faculty of Chemical Engineering thick in the past are now old and require refurbishment.
He frowned at the diversion of the education tax funds for other purposes, saying the incessant strikes, especially in 1992 forced him to send his child abroad for further learning at a huge cost.
He urged the federal government to redirect enough funds to the education sector, saying it is only through adequate funding that the Nigerian academic community can regain its lost glory of the 70s.
The Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Oluwatoyin Ogundipe, represented by the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Development Services), Prof. Ayodele Atsenuwa, expressed appreciation to the celebrant for his benefaction to the university.
POLL
He said, “The award of the research grant, prizes/scholarships, and Professorial Chair in Chemical Engineering has helped tremendously in expanding the frontiers of innovation, research learning and the provision of a world-class teaching environment.”

I’ve been in the drama education world for quite some time now, and I just figured out the actual difference between drama and theatre. So, to help clarify for anyone else, I thought I’d share the difference between theatre vs. drama.
First of all, theatRE vs. theatER, what’s the difference? Well, truthfully, nothing. The ‘er’ version is preferred with American English whereas the ‘re’ version is the British version. However, you will constantly see people referred to a building or a structure, where the art is performed, as theatER and the art form as theatRE. But, there truly is no … Continue reading →

It would be wonderful if emergency plumbing situations only arose between the hours of 9 and 5, but we’ve been doing this long enough to know that’s not how it happens. Twilight Home Services offers Emergency Plumbing Services and we’re just a phone call away: (708) 255-1111.
Emergency Drain Cleaning
Toilets don’t know it’s midnight when they decide to overflow. As a result, Twilight Home is available to serve the western Chicago suburbs. As a family-owned business, we value our customers and know just how important it is to be available when you really need us — no matter the time. Your home is valuable to you, and you are valuable to us.
Emergency Plumbing
Plumbing leaks or pipe breaks can strike at any time. They can be hidden, slow growing and oftentimes go unnoticed until they are a major problem. These issues compound with time, so prompt attention can make the difference of thousands of dollars. It is important to resolve the problem quickly and with a professional.
Common emergency plumbing issues we handle are: leaky pipes, breaks in your stacks, leaking hot water heaters, sump pump/ejector pump failures, clogs, bathroom sinks, kitchen sinks, bathtubs, toilets, main stack breaks.
“Saved the Day”
I had Twilight Home perform a sewer inspection, after our home inspector suspected a cracked sewer, and a different plumber quoted over $15k in repairs. Twilight scoped the line and discovered there was nothing wrong! If it weren't for them I would have walked away from the home of my dreams!
- Jim D., Downers Grove, IL
“Life Savers”
I called Twilight Home on Christmas Eve, when my toilet started overflowing a few hours before I was supposed to have guests. They came immediately, addressed my problem quickly and reasonably. They were in and out and my guests never knew the difference. Life savers.
- Michelle J., Brookfield, IL
“Twilight is AWESOME!”
My drains always went down slowly. I tried Liquid Plumber, amongst many other chemical solutions, but nothing would ever do the trick. Jerry came out and recommended jet rodding the lines and scoping. His jet rod cleared out years of sludge and debris. Water flowing perfectly now!
- Theresa V., Riverside, IL

SITUATION
Designing an Impactful Website That Stands Out
As leaders in their industries, Capsugel wanted to reimagine how their website looked, felt, and functioned. This meant rethinking how their users experience the website and presenting them with something new. Starting with our design discovery workshop, we presented several design options to the team at Capsugel in order to capture a look and feel that resonated with their audience. A major challenge with pharmaceutical/health websites is presenting their wealth of information in digestible chunks that are easy to navigate and comprehend. With new toolbars to break up the vast amounts of information and impact imagery replacing literal imagery, we were able to create a new site that is both visually appealing and functional for large amounts of complicated content.
CLIENT OBJECTIVES
Nurturing Leads From Start to Finish
The collaboration between our design and development teams allows us to create comprehensive websites that are always driven by our clients’ objectives. With an emphasis on lead generation and nurturing, Capsugel’s new website has several places that allow users to submit a lead/contact form, using contextual and personalized calls to action (CTAs). Contact forms are linked to site activity and integrated with Pardot and Salesforce to retarget users using segmented drip campaigns that move them through the sales funnel.
DESIGN APPROACH
Serving Dynamic Content Based on User Personas
With a clean and engaging design in place, we migrated Capsugel’s site from ExpressionEngine to Craft CMS, creating a modular-based CMS that is much more flexible. From there, we were able to focus on the mindsets of Capsugel’s users – ensuring that each user’s path would lead them to the information that they needed. Through meetings with the Capsugel team, we were able to view their website through the eyes of the different personas that use it, each of whom has a unique path. Using the new content modules that we created throughout their website, we created criteria to evaluate content and match it with the different persona types based on their site activity. We created an algorithm that automatically feeds customized dynamic content to users according to their site activity persona.
RESULTS
A Beautifully Redesigned Site with Intuitive User Flow
By dividing their various users into different personas to focus on their journeys, Capsugel’s striking new website is able to serve dynamic content that is more relevant and approachable than ever before. With a modular design and customized information being delivered from start to finish, Capsugel has seen a dramatic increase in lead generation. Capsugel now has a strong web presence, differentiating themselves in their market and solidifying their position as leaders in their field.

No matter which way you look at it buying a home is a major investment. For many homebuyers however, it can be an even more expensive process than it needs to be because many fall prey to at least a few of the many common and costly mistakes which trap them into either:
paying too much for the home they want, or
losing their dream home to another buyer, or
(worse) buying the wrong home for their needs.
A systemized approach to the home buying process can help you steer clear of these common traps, allowing you to not only cut costs, but also secure the home that’s best for you.
This important report discusses the nine most common and costly of these homebuyer traps, how to identify them, and what you can do to avoid them.
Bidding Blind
What price should you offer when you bid on a home? Is the seller’s asking price too high, or does it represent a great deal. If you fail to research the market in order to understand what comparable homes are selling for, making your offer would be like bidding blind. Without this knowledge of market value, you could easily bid too much, or fail to make a competitive offer at all on an excellent value.
Buying the Wrong Home
What are you looking for in a home? A simple enough question, but the answer can be quite complex. More than one buyer has been swept up in the emotion and excitement of the buying process only to find themselves the owner of a home that is either too big or too small. Maybe they’re stuck with a longer than desired commute to work, or a dozen more fix-ups than they really want to deal with now that the excitement has died down. Take the time up front to clearly define your wants and needs. Put it in writing and then use it as a yardstick with which to measure every home you look at.
Unclear Title
Make sure very early on in the negotiation that you will own your new home free and clear by having a title search completed. The last thing you want to discover when you’re in the back stretch of a transaction is that there are encumbrances on the property such as tax liens, undisclosed owners, easements, leases or the like.
Inaccurate Survey
As part of your offer to purchase, make sure you request an accurate property survey that clearly marks your boundaries. If the survey is not current, you may find that there are structural changes that are not shown (e.g. additions to the house, a new swimming pool, a neighbour’s new fence that is extending a boundary line, etc.) Be very clear on these issues.
Undisclosed Fix-ups
Don’t expect every seller to own up to every physical detail that will need to be attended to. Both you and the seller are out to maximize your investment. Ensure that you conduct a thorough inspection of the home early in the process. Consider hiring an independent inspector to objectively view the home inside and out, and make the final contract contingent upon this inspector’s report. This inspector should be able to give you a report of any item that needs to be fixed with associated, approximate cost.
Not Getting Mortgage Pre-approval
Pre-approval is fast, easy and free. When you have a pre-approved mortgage, you can shop for your home with a greater sense of freedom and security, knowing that the money will be there when you find the home of your dreams.
Contract Misses
If a seller fails to comply to the letter of the contract by neglecting to attend to some repair issues, or changing the spirit of the agreement in some way, this could delay the final closing and settlement. Prepare a list of agreed issues, walk through them, and check them off one by one.
Hidden Costs
Make sure you identify and uncover all costs – large and small – far enough ahead of time. When a transaction closes, you will sometimes find fees for this or that sneaking through after the “sub total” – fees such as loan disbursement charges, underwriting fees etc. Understand these in advance by having your lender project total charges for you in writing.
Rushing the Closing
Take your time during this critical part of the process, and insist on seeing all paperwork the day before you sign. Make sure this documentation perfectly reflects your understanding of the transaction, and that nothing has been added or subtracted. Is the interest rate right? Is everything covered? If you rush this process on the day of closing, you may run into a last minute snag that you can’t fix without compromising the terms of the deal, the financing, or even the sale itself.

The Almalyk District porphyry Cu-Au complex is located adjacent to the town of Almalyk, 65 km to the southeast of Tashkent in eastern Uzbekistan (#Location: Kal'makyr - 40° 48' 44"N, 69° 38' 49"E; Sarycheku - 40° 46' 33"N, 69° 46' 37"E).
The Almalyk District complex encompasses the ore deposits at Kal'makyr (2.5 Gt @ 0.38% Cu, 0.5 g/t Au; Golovanov et al., 2005) and Dalnee or Dalnye (2.8 Gt @ 0.36% Cu, 0.35 g/t Au; Golovanov et al., 2005). The two deposits are separated by the near east-west Kal'makyr Fault which has down-faulted the Dalnee deposit in the north, relative to Kal'makyr. Subsequent to 2005, a preliminary feasibility study has been completed into the development of a larger tonnage of lower grade mineralisation encompassing and including both the Kal'makyr and Dalnee deposits. This mineralisation is to be mined in a much larger open 'super-pit' known as the Yoshlik mine (in two stages, Yoshlik-1 and Yoshlik-2). It comprises a JORC compliant total Mineral Resource of 17 Gt @ 0.26% Cu, 0.34 g/t Au which comprises 44 Mt of copper and 5720 t of contained gold (Mineral Resource Estimation and Pre-Feasibility Study prepared by SRK Consulting for Almalyk Mining and Metallurgical Combine).
Another mineralised centre, the Saukbulak porphyry Cu-Au system, is located some 9 km to the SE of Kal'makyr. The Kyzata or Kuzata (700 Mt @ 0.85% Cu; Singer et al., 2005) and Sarycheku (200 Mt @ 0.5% Cu, 0.1 g/t Au; Golovanov et al., 2005) deposits constitute fault displaced segments of this system.
Green copper oxide mineralisation was discovered at Almalyk in 1926 during a geological mapping program. Subsequent exploration undertaken between 1931 and 1941 and from 1947 to 1951, was followed by the commencement of open pit mining at Kal'makyr in 1954. Additional exploration and delineation work between 1961 and 1980, and from 1986 to 1996 culminated in the estimation of reserves/resources of 2 Gt @ 0.38% Cu, 0.6 g/t Au, 0.006% Mo at a 0.2% Cu cut-off, plus 1700 Mt of lower grade 0.15 to 0.19% Cu (Golovanov et al., 2005). Uzbekistan's state-owned Almalyk Mining and Metallurgical Combine (AMMC) commenced an expansion in 2017 by developing a major expansion of the Kal'makyr pit, as detailed above. The enlarged pit, known as the Yoshlik-1 (or Youth) mine, and the constructing a new copper concentrator, is planned to allow the doubling of copper and gold production by 2028. Ore production is scheduled for 2021, and is planned tol ramp up from the current 23 Mt to 65 Mt of ore per annum in 2023 and eventually to 74 Mt by 2035.
The Almalyk District, with its porphyry copper, base metal-skarn (e.g. Kurgashimkan, Kul'chulak and Kulemes) and epithermal gold-silver (e.g. Sartabutkan, Akturpak and Kaul'dy) deposits, is among the most economically important in central Asia (Grauch, 1996; Kremenetsky et al., 1996; Isakhojaev, 1998; Shayakubov et al., 1998; Shayakubov, 1999).
Geological Setting
The porphyry copper deposits of the Almalyk district are hosted within the southeastern part of the ~1500 km long, generally east-west trending Devono-Carboniferous Valerianov-Bel'tau-Kurama magmatic arc that lies within the Middle Tien Shan Terrane in Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and southern Kazakhstan. This terrane is part of the >2500 km long Tien Shan Belt of central Asia, which is, in turn, part of the larger Altaid Orogenic Collage, the western half of the trans-continental Central Asia Orogenic Belt (Sengör et al., 1993; Sengör and Natalin, 1996; Yakubchuk, 2004). The Tien Shan Belt was formed over, adjacent to and between a collage of micro-continental slivers on the southern margin of the large Khanty-Mansi back-arc basin that subsequently became an ocean. This ocean opened when those and other micro-continental slivers separated from the Eastern European Craton during the early Palaeozoic. Subsequent inversion and progressive closure of the Khanty-Mansi Ocean and amalgamation of the micro-continental slivers resulted in a complex of magmatic arcs, sutures and accretionary complexes.
The Tien Shan Belt is composed of three main elements, the Northern, Middle and Southern Tien Shan, each separated by a major suture/structural zone. The North Tien Shan comprises a micro-continental sliver of Proterozoic basement and Neoproterozoic to early Palaeozoic magmatic arc rocks of the Baikalides and pre-Uralides located on the south-eastern margin of the greater Khanty-Mansi Ocean. To the south of the Nikolaev Line, which separates the Northern and Middle Tien Shan terranes, the latter comprises remnants of the Late Devonian to Carboniferous Valerian-Beltau-Kurama magmatic arc. This arc was the result of subduction of oceanic crust of an arm of the larger Khanty-Mansi Ocean, the 'Turkestan Basin', beneath the earlier arcs and micro-continental slivers of the Kyrgyz-Kazakh micro-continent to the north, represented locally by the Northern and Middle Tien Shan terranes. The Turkestan Basin had a NE-SW elongation and separated the contiguous Karakum/Alati-Tarim micro-continents to the south from the amalgamated Northern and Middle Tien Shan terranes to the north.
The Southern Tien Shan represents the youngest remnants deposition within the Khanty-Mansi Ocean, on the south-western limb of the giant Kazakh Orocline, and is separated from the Middle Tien Shan by the Southern Tien Shan Suture. That suture zone is defined by ophiolites and borders the strongly deformed fold and thrust belt of the Southern Tien Shan Terrane, which comprises an accretionary complex. That accretionary complex, formed over the continuing subduction zone during the final closure of the Turkestan Basin in the Permian, prior to and during the collision between the two micro-continental blocks on either side of that basin. The Northern and Middle Tien Shan terranes had been earlier accreted into the Kyrgyz-Kazakh micro-continent as part of the evolving proto-Eurasian mass that was being amalgamated to the north. This collisional event led to intense deformation of the sedimentary pile, development of nappe structures, and northward under-thrusting of the Karakum and Altai-Tarim micro-continents below the accretionary complex and the Valerian-Beltau-Kurama arc (Yakubchuk et al., 2002).
The initial pulse of the Valerian-Beltau-Kurama magmatic arc is preserved by un-eroded fragments of Siluro-Devonian I and I-A type granitoids and as Devonian continental-volcanogenic rocks composed of alkaline basalt to andesite-rhyolite with an Andean type geochemical signature. This volcano-plutonic belt is estimated to have been as much as 120 km wide, averaging, 50 to 70 km (Golovanov, et al., 2005). Between the Lower Visean and Lower Bashkirian in the Carboniferous, a break in magmatism occurred, with deposition continuing in a marine shelf regime on the passive southern margin of the Kyrgyz-Kazakh micro-continent, comprising thick carbonate and clastic sequences. The second pulse of magmatic activity accompanied the intense subduction of the Turkestan Basin beneath the Kyrgyz-Kazakh micro-continent during the Middle- to Late- Carboniferous resulting in basin closure, collision and formation of another Andean type volcano-plutonic belt over the active wedge. Rb-Sr age dating of volcanic rocks from this pulse yielded ages of 320 to 290 Ma.
The oldest rocks known within the Almalyk District are Ordovician to Lower Silurian shallow marine sequences of sandstone and mudstone that have locally been metamorphosed to greenschist facies. This sequence is unconformably overlain by Lower Devonian intermediate to felsic volcano-sedimentary rocks dated at 421 ±4 Ma (zircon U-Pb; Nurtaev B.S. quoted by Zhou et al. 2017). Subsequent shallow lagoonal facies in the Middle Devonian to Early Carboniferous resulted in an ~1000 m thick succession of clastic and carbonate rocks, with gypsum and anhydrite occurring in its lower sections (Shayakubov et al., 1999). Overlying Upper Carboniferous alkali-rich felsic and intermediate volcanic and associated clastic suites host epithermal gold mineralisation in this region. The overlying Permian sequence is mainly composed of subaerial to shallow water mafic to intermediate volcanic rocks with interbedded conglomerate, siltstone and sandstone. Cretaceous and Cenozoic sedimentary cover rocks occur locally in topographic depressions.
This succession has been extensively intruded by widespread late Palaeozoic intrusive magmatic rocks, which are estimated to occupy >60% of the region. In the Almalyk district, the oldest magmatic phase occurs as sporadic exposures of a Late Silurian complex of biotite-granite, granodiorite, plagio-granite and alaskite stocks and dykes that extend to the south. Later Palaeozoic intrusive rocks are scattered throughout the district, mainly comprising an assemblage including gabbro-diorite, diorite, monzonite, granodiorite porphyry and quartz porphyry, subdivided into three principal generations, namely an:
• Early Devonian quartz-porphyry, that generally occurs as interlayers within or above intermediate to felsic volcano-sedimentary units (Zhao et al., 2017). This represents the first pulse of Valerian-Beltau-Kurama magmatism in the district;
• Middle Carboniferous monzonite to diorite, which marks the beginning of the second pulse of magmatism. The most widespread phase of pulse is represented by batholithic syeno-diorite, occasionally grading into diorite and gabbro-diorite. These are equigranular, composed of feldspar, plagioclase, biotite, hornblende and less commonly, pyroxene, with ~15% mafic minerals. The next most common phase is a hypidiomorphic diorite characterised by 60 to 75% plagioclase, with less common bright pink syenite that has up to 70% feldspar (Golovanov et al., 2005);
• Late Carboniferous to Early Permian syn-mineral granodiorite porphyry to quartz-monzonite porphyry that is part of a larger intrusive mass that has only limited exposure in the centre of the Almalyk District. It is a pale grey or light pink porphyritic rock with clearly visible phenocrysts that comprise 25% quartz, 32% plagioclase, 28% potassic feldspar and 15% biotite. In the immediate Almalyk mine area, the distribution of the quartz monzonite porphyry intrusions is interpreted to to controlled by concealed NW-SE trending basement faulting and occurs as stocks. Some of these porphyry stocks are exposed at the surface, although others are only evident in drill core, or interpreted from geophysical data. The stocks commonly have steep contacts near surface which flatten with depth. All are considered to be salients of a larger deep-seated intrusion.
Both the Almalyk and Saukbulak porphyry Cu-Au systems are associated with the second pulse of magmatic activity, emplaced during the Middle- to Late-Carboniferous, within the Devono-Carboniferous Valerianov-Bel'tau-Kurama magmatic arc. Earlier K-Ar dating of limited accuracy of the ore-related porphyry intrusive and the mineralisation returned ages in the range of 310 to 290 Ma, whereas subsequent U-Pb zircon dating reported for the intrusive sequence in the Almalyk district partially overlaps in the range of 320 to 305 Ma, with Re-Os ages of ore-related porphyries of 315 to 319 Ma (references cited in Golovanov, et al. (2005).
Mineralisation at both Kal'makyr and Dalnee is predominantly in the form of stockworks with lesser disseminations, and is associated with Late Carboniferous quartz monzonite porphyry plugs intruding earlier dioritic and monzonitic intrusive rocks of the same magmatic complex. The orebodies take the form of a cap like shell developed above and draped over the flanks of the related quartz monzonite porphyry stock.
The dominant hosts to ore are the monzonite and diorite wall rocks, with the quartz monzonite porphyry only containing ore in its outer margins, surrounding and/or overlying a barren core. The focus of stockwork development is fracturing related to both the intrusive contact of the porphyry stock and to crosscutting faulting.
Alteration comprises an early K-silicate phase followed by albite-actinolite and peripheral propylites, overprinted by an abundant phyllic episode which is closely related to the final distribution of the ore.
Associated mineralisation commenced with barren quartz-hematite veining, followed by quartz-magnetite, with the bulk of the contained gold, with lesser gold, then by zeolite-anhydrite, and finally carbonate and barite veining. Subsequent oxidation and uplift developed a layer of oxide ore, a limited leached cap and supergene sulphide enrichment, largely in zones of fault related fracturing.
Kal'makyr
The Kal'makyr deposit is distributed around and within the outer margins of a central plug of Late Carboniferous quartz monzonite porphyry (QMP) intruding earlier Carboniferous monzonite and diorite. The deposit straddles a major fault and extends southwards toward a second fault zone. The main volume of the block defined by these two faults is occupied by monzonite and diorite, although remnants of Devonian volcanic and carbonate rocks are locally preserved.
Approximately 65 to 75% of the ore at Kal'makyr occurs in the form of stockwork veins and veinlets, while 30 to 35% occurs as disseminations. The distribution of the ore stockwork and the intensity of veining is controlled by the density of fracturing and brecciation related to both the intrusion of the QMP stocks and dykes, and to linear fracture zones associated with the Kal'makyr and Karabulak faults. As a result, the stockwork is represented by a downward expanding cone surrounding and capping the quartz monzonite porphyry plug, with a barren core corresponding with the centre of the plug.
The stockwork is represented by a network of fractures which have been healed by quartz veinlets, and less frequently by calcite or anhydrite, which contain large segregations of the ore sulphides, including pyrite, chalcopyrite, chalcocite, pyrrhotite, molybdenite and tetrahedrite. The veinlets vary in thickness from fractions of a millimetre to 3 or 4 cm, and are from a few to a few tens of centimetres in length. The interval between the veinlets if occupied by lesser disseminated pyrite, chalcopyrite, magnetite and occasionally other sulphides.
The stockwork zone is elongated in a northwest direction, with maximum surface dimensions of approximately 3520 x 1430 m and a maximum vertical extent of 1240 m. The inner annulus of high-grade ore is substantially smaller, with outer dimensions of approximately 1740 x 500 m and a maximum vertical thickness of 450 m. The most intense fracturing and the highest grade ore are related to the intersections of porphyry contacts with the east-west and northeast trending faults and tend to form a broken annulus within the monzonite and diorite wall rocks immediately surrounding the QMP. The grade rapidly decreases inwards to the barren core in the QMP plug. In contrast the high grade annulus is surrounded by a broad halo of medium grade ore before passing into a lower grade periphery. At depth the ore stockwork becomes less continuous and lenses-out downwards via a series of tongues. The primary Kal'makyr ore contains Cu, Mo, Au, Ag and admixtures of Se, Te, Re, Bi and In.
The upper sections of the ore deposit were subjected to oxidation and supergene enrichment, best developed in areas of more intense fracturing on the QMP contacts and along zones of fault related fracturing. The degree of oxidation, leaching and supergene enrichment varied across the deposit, from oxide to secondary sulphide to mixed oxide-sulphide zones, although the supergene sulphide enrichment was only weakly developed. Oxidation was developed to a maximum depth of 65 m, averaging around 20 m, while leaching, where it replaced in situ oxidation, persisted over a similar thickness. The principal mineral within the oxide zone was malachite, with chrysocolla and turquoise being locally important. Where present, supergene sulphide enrichment, principally as chalcocite and covellite, had a maximum thickness of 70 m, averaging 19 m, while a mixed 'complex' oxide-supergene sulphide zone, where developed, also averaged 19 m in thickness.
Dalnee
The Dalnee group of deposits comprise a string of three interconnected orebodies, Central, Northwestern Balykty and Karabulak that are a west to northwest, down-plunge continuation of Kal'makyr at deeper levels. The >0.1% Cu outline unites these deposits into a common ellipsoidal sub-economic mineralised mass in plan view. However, post-mineral normal and sinistral strike-slip displacement on both the Karabulak and Kal'makyr faults dissected the ellipse into three blocks. The northern Karabulak block is displaced by 2 km to the west and the Central block (the main Dalnee deposit) for 0.5 km to the west of the southern block and Kal'makyr. The northern block encompassing Karabulak is the least eroded, while the deepest exhumation has affected the southern block and Kal'makyr.
The main Dalnee deposit in the Central area is located within a downward widening tectonic wedge between the Karabulak and Kal'makyr faults which have truncated the mineralised system and displaced ore on the flanks of the underlying QMP. Approximately 58% of the ore in the deposit is hosted by the monzonite, 35% by the diorite and 7% by the QMP. The stockwork is elongated parallel to the east-west direction of faulting and widens downward due to the outward dip of the bounding faults, while the base of mineralisation closely follows the apical surface of the underlying QMP stock. The average vertical extent of mineralisation is about 700 m with a maximum of 1200 m on some sections. The higher grade Cu mineralisation occurs below a depth of 150 to 200 m, while the highest grade core is at a depth of 500 to 600 m. The Karabulak deposit to the north is the least economically important of the Dalnee deposits. Drill holes intersected 'high-grade' Cu mineralisation extending along the Karabulak Fault at depth, associated with a small stock of quartz monzonite porphyry (QMP).
The Sary-Cheku and Kyzata deposits together constitute the Saukbulak Ore Field. These two orebodies are similar, but occur within different fault blocks, which have been eroded to different levels, but may represent the fault displaced halves of the same original deposit. Kyzata is interpreted to have been dropped down and displaced by ~2.5 km to the SW on the northern side of the SW-NE trending, sinistral Miskan Fault. Kyzata is in the central fault block between the Miskan and Burgandy faults, the latter being just to the south of Kalmakyr. Kyzata has subsided relative to Sary-Cheku and only been a little eroded, occurring at a depth of 350 to 550 m, and is generally not stripped by erosion. Sary-Cheku in contrast is in the southeastern fault block which has been deeply eroded, with much of the ore and mineralised porphyry stock being exposed (Zvezdov, et al., 1993).
Mineralisation was discovered in the Saukbulak Ore Field in 1927, with subsequently exploration and evaluation between 1955 and 1983, with open-pit mining of Sary-Cheku from 1974.
Kyzata
Yoshlik is associated with a laccolith like stock of granodiorite porphyry intruding lower Devonian alaskite, granodiorite, andesite and quartz porphyry, as well as middle Carboniferous syenite-diorite. The stock occurs beneath an overlying cap of recrystallised and locally skarn altered limestone and dolomite. It is cut by younger dykes of granodiorite porphyry, syenite and granosyenite porphyry and diorite porphyry (Zvezdov, et al., 1993).
The Yoshlik orebody has the shape of a NW trending, gently dipping, slightly curved lens. Disseminated and stockwork Mo-Cu mineralisation occurs both in the apex and deeper central parts of the porphyry stock, the younger dykes and the surrounding syenite-diorite. It does not however, penetrate into the overlying limestone and dolomite, nor the volcanics. The alteration zoning is also compressed, with the products of K-silicate alteration being almost completely overprinted by the later phyllic phase. There is a downward zonation in the phyllic envelope which encloses the ore, from quartz-sericite, to quartz-sericite-chlorite to a propylitic zone. Geochemical studies indicate a wide lateral dispersion of major elements and metals in the intrusives, but not into the overlying carbonates (Zvezdov, et al., 1993).
Yoshlik is also characterised by higher Mo values, as compared to Kal'makyr, and by the absence of bornite, and a later quartz-carbonate-Au-Pb-Zn sulphide association. The main with native gold associations are the most common, assemblage, with the K-silicate related veining containing molybdenite and quartz-magnetite being less abundant and confined to the upper contact of the stock and the carbonates (Zvezdov, et al., 1993).
Zvezdov, et al. (1993) note that the Yoshlik deposit its probable and tectonically displaced Sarycheku segment have a different character to the other porphyry copper deposits of the Almalyk district. These include: i). the laccolith-like morphology of the related porphyry stock, which is controlled by the geometry of base of the overlying carbonate sequence; ii). the flat, compressed shape of the alteration and mineralisation zones, the partial superposition and variable preservation of the earliest assemblages, and the 'reverse zoning' downward from the top of the intrusion; iii). the lenticular, subhorizontal shape of the ore-bearing stockwork and the molybdenum-copper orebody within its limits which parallel the apex of the porphyry intrusion; iv). the high density of stockwork veining, the bulk of which are relatively thick and gently dipping, frequently >20 to 25 vol.%, with a high metal content, often >1.0 to 1.5% Cu, with a relatively small variation; and v). the restricted development of primary geochemical haloes, the form of which are controlled not only by the upper limits of the granodiorite-porphyry intrusion, but also by the lithologic-petrographic composition of the overlying rocks. The characteristics have been attributed to 'screening effect' of the capping carbonate sequence beneath which the porphyry copper system developed. Metamorphosed limestone and dolomite, representing the carbonate sequence, differ from the underlying volcanogenic and intrusive rocks by anomalously low porosity and permeability, higher reactivity limiting the upward flow of hydrothermal fluids, low elasticity, and extremely low competence (Zvezdov et al., 1985, 1986). As such the carbonate sequence directly above the orebearing intrusion suggests it forms a structural and chemical petrophysical barrier.
Sary-Cheku
The Sarycheku deposit is related to the hanging wall of the Miskan Fault, with the ore grade mineralisation being confined to the tectonic wedge between the Miskan and Sargalam faults. The host rocks are represented by Devonian rhyolite porphyry, which is cut by Late Paleozoic porphyry intrusion. The oxidised and chalcocite ores have virtually been exhausted, while the underlying hypogene sulphide ore is concentrated within a zone which is 1160 m long and has been traced to a depth of 340 m.

Do you remember the good old days, when you could have walked into a store and bought a phone? Now you have to join a waiting list that gives you the chance to queue up to pre-order a smartphone so you can buy it at launch. Maybe.
Nothing by Carl Pei launches its first phone, the Nothing Phone 1, on July 12. And now the company has opened a waiting list for those who really want to get it at launch and not a day after.
This is where things get a little complicated. According to Engadget, members of the Nothing community can redeem their special code and pay £20 (in the UK) or €20 (in the EU) in order to order the phone on July 12.
If you’re not into that club, you can head over to Nothing’s website to join the waitlist, which could earn you an invite. The invite guarantees your place to order a phone from July 12 and also unlocks a special reward (a £20/€20 credit that you can use to buy other Nothing gadgets, which will include the Ear 1 headphones and the Nothing Phone accessories 1). But as Nothing says, the Nothing Phone 1 supply will be limited at launch, so nothing is guaranteed (pun unintentional).
The tweet may have been deleted
(opens in a new tab)
The bad news for US customers is that the Nothing Phone 1 won’t be widely available there. However, people in the UK, India and Europe can all join in the fun.
SEE ALSO:
Nothing’s Ear headphones (1) are buggy but beautiful
As for the phone itself, we don’t know all the details, but we do know that it will be partially transparent and will run on a Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset with wireless charging, dual rear cameras, modded version of Android and a likely 6.55-inch screen size.

A look back at some of the best blue blood Final Fours
By NOAH TRISTER - Mar. 30, 2022 03:36 PM EDT

View All (8)
This year's Final Four is either unprecedented or pretty close.
In one corner, North Carolina is making a record 21st appearance in the Final Four. Its semifinal opponent, Duke, is waiting with the sport's winningest coach. Mike Krzyzewski surpassed 1,200 victories during this postseason run.
Kansas arrives having recently taken over the Division I lead in all-time wins. Villanova doesn't have quite the storied history of the other three schools, but the Wildcats are trying for their third national title in seven years. Only UCLA under John Wooden and Kentucky under Adolph Rupp have won three in that short a span.
So the quartet of programs in this year's Final Four is truly special. Only a few others can really compare:
1968 (HOUSTON, NORTH CAROLINA, OHIO STATE, UCLA)
Two of these programs aren't considered blue bloods now. In fact, Houston was a stretch even then — but the Elvin Hayes-led Cougars were making their second straight Final Four appearance, and their semifinal matchup with UCLA was a rematch of Houston's famous win over the Bruins earlier that year at the Astrodome. The teams also had met in the previous year's Final Four, with UCLA winning.
The Bruins beat the Cougars in this Final Four as well, then defeated Dean Smith and North Carolina in the title game. Ohio State, meanwhile, was making its eighth Final Four appearance in the first 30 years of the tournament.
1991 (DUKE, KANSAS, NORTH CAROLINA, UNLV)
Duke, Kansas and North Carolina need no introduction as traditional powers — and UNLV was the sport's dominant team at this point, with a national championship in 1990 and an undefeated record coming into the ‘91 Final Four.
It was actually Duke — making its fifth Final Four appearance in six years — that was still chasing its first title and trying to shed a label of a team that hadn’t won the big one. The Blue Devils did it, knocking off UNLV and then Kansas.
1993 (KANSAS, KENTUCKY, NORTH CAROLINA, MICHIGAN)
Talk about blue bloods — these schools all wear varying shades of the color. This was the 11th Final Four appearance for North Carolina and the 10th each for Kansas and Kentucky.
But it was Michigan — appearing in its sixth Final Four — that had the most recent title of this bunch, having won it all in 1989. A win over Kentucky in '93 gave the Fab Five its second straight appearance in the title game. The Wolverines then lost a heartbreaker to North Carolina.
2008 (KANSAS, MEMPHIS, NORTH CAROLINA, UCLA)
This was the only men's Final Four to date featuring four No. 1 seeds, and Kansas, North Carolina and UCLA are unquestioned basketball royalty. Memphis isn't at that level, but this John Calipari-coached group — which included future No. 1 draft pick Derrick Rose — had lost only one game all season before falling in the title game to Kansas in overtime.
2012 (KANSAS, KENTUCKY, LOUISVILLE, OHIO STATE)
This Final Four had some similarities to this year's, with in-state rivals Kentucky and Louisville meeting in a titanic semifinal matchup. Louisville was making its ninth Final Four appearance — and that was the fewest of the bunch. Kentucky ultimately won the championship with a victory over Kansas.

Tron’s Justin Sun Reveals Decentralized Algorithmic Stablecoin USDD

On April 21, Justin Sun, the founder of Tron, announced the launch of a decentralized algorithmic stablecoin called USDD. Sun said on Thursday that the USDD Network will “provide custody service for the $10 [billion] worth of highly liquid assets raised from blockchain industry initiators and use them as an early-stage reserve.”
Tron to Launch a Native Stablecoin Called USDD
- Advertisement -
Justin Sun from the Tron network has revealed a new stablecoin issued on top of the blockchain Tron. The announcement was also published on in a blog post called “An Open Letter on the Issuance of USDD, a Decentralized Algorithmic Stablecoin on Tron.” The letter explains how stablecoins have evolved from the “Omni-USDT 1.0 era” to decentralized algorithmic stablecoins. The blog post details that the Tron DAO has partnered with “major blockchain players” in order to launch USDD. The blog post further claims USDD will be “the most decentralized stablecoin in human history.”

Tron’s USDD launch follows the exponential climb of a few decentralized stablecoins. First Makerdao’s DAI propelled to the top spot in terms of market capitalization among stablecoin as it offers an over-collateralization method in order to keep its dollar peg. In more recent times, Terra’s UST has surpassed DAI’s market valuation and it also offers an algorithmic reserve method in order to keep its dollar peg. Terra’s UST is now the third-largest stablecoin project, as it commands a $17.89 billion market capitalization.

In fact, USDD operates an awful lot like Terra’s UST and Sun explained on Thursday it will be backed by $10 billion in crypto reserves to start. “In the Stablecoin 3.0 era, USDD will not rely on any centralized institutions for redemption, management, and storage,” the blog post on notes. “In the Stwill achieve full on-chain decentralization.” The blog post adds:
USDD will be pegged to the underlying asset, TRX, and issued in a decentralized manf TRX.
Terra Founder Do Kwon congratulations Tron DAO and Justin Sun
while a number of individuals on Twitter called Justin Sun’s and Tron’s new stablecoin a “UST lookalike,” Terra’s founder Do Kwon spoke about the comments directed at USDD. “This should be obvious but – The more carmakers go electric, Tesla wins,” Do Kwon said. “Similarly, the more blockchains issue their own sovereign stablecoins, UST wins. The true moon will be found in helping as many communities become self sovereign as possible.”
In another tweet, Do Kwon congratulated the Tron DAO and Justin Sun. Terra’s founder said:
Tron DAO is launching an algorithmic stablecoin with mint-and-burn mechanics called USDD – mint and burn TRXredeem against TRX. Decentralized economies deserve decentralized money – every blockchain will run on [decentralized] stable soon.
Tron’s new stablecoin has been a topical conversation on social media on Thursday. While USDD will allow people to mint and burn with TRX and hold billions in crypto reserves, some people suggested the project should hold bitcoin (BTC) well. Moreover, Sun’s tweet on Thursday further noted that the Tron DAO reserve will “set its basic risk-free interest rate to 30% per annum.”

He initially worked on stage designs, mostly for operas by Bedřich Smetana. In the field of architecture, he attracted attention because he published an article in the magazine Časopis československých architektů in which he proposed spatial changes for the Sokol gyms by introducing reinforced concrete. In addition, he became better known by winning all the competitions for the Spořilov Garden City in Prague together with Vlastimil Brožek. This was also followed by the joint debate on typifications of flats. Later, he frequently collaborated with Jan Mentberger, with whom he built many Prague apartment buildings.

An Introduction to the Monoliths
by /u/Walkyou
On November 18th 2020, a group of Utah DWR Biologists were flying in Southwest Utah on an assignment to count Bighorn Sheep in the area. What they saw next kickstarted possibly the most ‘2020’ news story the world has ever seen. A large metal monolith, approximately 9.8 feet tall, was standing in the middle of the desert, miles from the nearest town of Moab, Utah.
The Biologists published a video of the monolith on November 23rd, and the story instantly went viral. National news companies caught wind of it and the monolith became somewhat of a meme, but also a hell of a mystery.
Within days, the location of the monolith was discovered by Reddit users, and Google Earth imagery had determined that it was placed sometime in 2016. People naturally flocked to the site over the course of the next few days, taking pictures, videos, investigating, or just marveling and the mystery of the monolith. Who put it there? Why? Was it the government, or even aliens? The world was captivated, and the investigation had no sign of stopping. Until, of course, it vanished.
On November 27th, a group of 4 slackliners removed the monolith. They took responsibility for the removal a few days later, resulting in mixed reactions from the public. On the one hand, the land would not be ravaged by tourists who were making a mess of it. On the other, the monolith would not be able to be studied or investigated any further. Regardless of what anyone thought though, the mystery came to an unsatisfying close.
Until there was another. The same day that the Utah Monolith was removed, a second monolith was discovered in eastern Romania. This monolith had odd squiggles on one side, and was generally much less well-made than the Utah Monolith. Some believed that it was made as a knockoff, others believed that it was the second clue in the larger Monolith mystery. But then, on December 1st, this monolith vanished just like its predecessor. Maybe this was truly the end.
The next day there was a third. This time in California. The day after that, it too was destroyed. This time, it was a group of a far right “activists”, who forcefully removed it ‘in the name of christ’. Everyone knew what was coming though. A 4th monolith appeared in Las Vegas, in the middle of the extremely popular and crowded Fremont Street. Then, a 5th in Joshua Tree National Park, California. They kept appearing. There have been 19 total monoliths, plus an additional 5 confirmed fakes, and they are seemingly growing exponentially. Are they all connected? Which ones are real, which are simply knockoffs? This mystery is far from over. With the way that 2020 has been going, it is likely just beginning.

A new creative project I am part of:
GUSH is a new feminist circus ensemble made up of 4 highly experienced women of circus. We use the repertoire of circus and the theatricality of contemporary performance to explore the way the performing feminine body is read and misread. The circus is unconventional and the performance is daring, ranging from the rebellious to the ridiculous.
Very much looking forward to performing in MONSTERIA with GUSH, Nov 30-Dec 3 during Brisbane Powerhouse’s Wonderland Festival. MONSTERIA is directed by Celia White and the performers are the wonderful Mayu Muto, Bianca Mackail and I.

Enterprise software provider Zoho on Friday warned that a newly patched critical flaw in its Desktop Central and Desktop Central MSP is being actively exploited by malicious actors, marking the third security vulnerability in its products to be abused in the wild in a span of four months.

Simplifying SSH keys and SSL Certs Management across the Enterprise using Key Manager Plus
November 01, 2016Swati Khandelwal
With rapidly growing web-based services and widely expanding locations, organizations are using more and more SSL certificates as well as SSH keys than ever. From authentication, confidentiality, and integrity to preventing the organization from industrial espionage, SSL certificates play an important role. Managing SSL certificates across networks to ensure protection and prevent unanticipated failures is critical, and it also becomes complicated with multiple locations, divisions as well as the fastest growing use of external cloud-based services. This not only complicates the process of managing individual SSL certificate and SSH key for an administrator but also costs organizations heavily. A key solution for this issue is to use an advanced and efficient SSL certificate and SSH Key management system. An effective solution enables an organization to know what kinds of certificates and keys it has, simplifies certificate discovery and monitor across multiple vendors, an

Design Trends
2021 is all about environment friendliness and sustainable choices, with inclusion of nature into the design elements. This season will look at finding a balance between nature and technologies.
Minimalism
This design trend is going to prevail over all spatial interiors. As it promotes sustainable choice, many designers have adopted this design style into their spaces. The latest modular kitchen designs will be clutter free and promote functionality without unnecessary details.
Accessorized with less kitchen furniture and decor items, designers will now aim at making spacious, sleek and calm kitchen interiors. These kitchen will be your serene abode and the act of cooking will be more artistic and sophisticated.
Environment friendly
As the world is moving towards sustainable choices, our living spaces are also adopting more nature friendly methods. Designers are being conscious about the planet’s well being and choosing materials and finish that are less harmful.
The new kitchens will have more of the nature in them. From textures to colours to decor elements, they will draw inspiration from mother nature. Addition of natural plants into the kitchen will be an ongoing trend as it not only draws the kitchen nearer to the nature but also adds freshness and brightness. Few of the best modular kitchen by Fanusta has been designed drawing inspiration from nature.
Kitchen Style for 2021
The interior designing sphere is an ever changing
Island
A favourite for most homeowners, this modular kitchen style gives the most luxurious feel to the kitchen. Suitable for large spaces, this trend has completely infused itself with other styles. You can design L-shaped kitchen with an island as well as a U shape designed kitchen with an island, this design style will not disappoint.
Kitchen has now changed from a cooking space to a family space, where everybody wants to be involved. An island modular kitchen allows for families to cook and eat together within the same space.
Open
From strictly being a functional space, usually staked on the back of the home, the kitchen has become an attractive premise located at the heart of the house composition. As time proceeds, people want kitchen to be an active part of their homes due which Open kitchens are gaining popularity day by day.
An open kitchen can make the space look spacious along with the practical benefits of free movement between the kitchen space and other parts of the house. This design style is one of the best modular kitchen by Fanusta, providing a stylish, sophisticated look to the entire house.
Colour Trends
This year the kitchens are going to be filled with luxurious colours. Although white remains the timeless classic for kitchen interiors, a few more colours make their way for an intense and deep synergy.
The Blue Takeover
The deep and complex shades of the blue are going to takeover the sophisticated black this year. The lighter shades will be used mixing with the white while the dark shades will be used the achieve the dramatic minimalism in the kitchen interiors.
Introducing Greens
As this year strives for an eco-friendly approach in the interior space, green in all its shades will be the definite colour trend of the year. From the aristocratic and dramatic grey-green to the simpler hues like pistachio and pastel greens, this colour can be used with the classic white and black to give a creative edge to the sophisticated kitchens.
Timeless Naturals
This year is going to be very close to the nature. Natural hues along with white will rule all design style and spaces. Giving your kitchen a warm cosy feeling, we see this colour palette ruling the design space for a long time. Colours like terracotta and more earthly hues can be mixed to get a dainty interior.
Material in Trend
Marble
The gourmet look that marble gives to a kitchen countertop cannot be denied and if aligned with natural wood cabinets, it gives the most exciting look to your kitchen space. Being the most striking representative of the nature along with wood, marble can fins its use even in the most simpler designs.
Glass
Making a comeback into the kitchen spaces, glass will make your place look spacious and bright. It adds the lightness and airiness to your modular kitchen. Many manufacturers of modular kitchen in Jaipur have agreed to a rise in demand of elements of glass into the cooking spaces especially glass decor and canopy rooftops.
Natural Wood
As this year is all about making sustainable choices and getting closer to the nature. The interior spaces will also reflect the same philosophy. Natural wood is going to be the prime material this year. From furniture to countertops and cabinets, everything can be made from natural wood.
Finish
Matte
The matte surfaces are gradually taking over the glossy, shiny surfaces. As this year is striving for minimalistic designs, matte surfaces gives the perfect desired feel. These also avoid the disadvantages of the glossy surfaces like the clearly visible grease marks or extreme murkiness.
Mix up textures
The latest modular kitchen designs see a mixing up of textures and finishes such as glass, bronze, marble and wood to create a raw and warm dynamic between these natural finishes. To create an eclectic mix from these finishes, designers will draw focus onto one by placing it in stark difference from one another.
Accessories
No handle season
In recent time we have seen handless kitchen to gain more popularity over time. It is both stylish and practical. Not only it aligns with the minimal design style but also prevents dirt accumulation. The handless kitchen facades accentuates less attentions and compliment the entire set. The best modular kitchens by Fanusta has been develop with this technology.
Natural Extras

The Royal Arms of the British monarchy differs based on what it is intended to represent. The Royal Arms of the United Kingdom, as depicted on these coins, represents the four states that comprise the modern kingdom. This includes symbols representing England, Scotland, and Northern Ireland.
All 2019 1 oz British Silver Royal Arms Coins in this listing come to you inside a mint tube of 25 coins.

The crowned shield is supported on either side by the most important heraldic beasts in the history of the crown. The Lion of England is depicted to the left of the shield, which since 1603 has been accompanied on the right by the Unicorn of Scotland. King James I of England, previously King James VI of Scotland, unified the thrones of the two nations under one person and brought the Unicorn of Scotland into the Royal Arms.

If we determine the package is lost or damaged, we file a claim. We reserve the right to re-ship your items or refund your money at our discretion.
My package appears to have been damaged or tampered with. What should I do?+
We recommend you refuse any shipment that appears to be damaged or tampered with as the shipping insurance ends once signed for and/or delivered. When refused, the package(s) will return to JM Bullion for inspection. If you have taken possession of a damaged or tampered package, please save all packaging and contact JM Bullion at1-800-276-6508 within 48 hours for further instructions. Failure to notify us of damage or tampering within 48 hours fromsignatureor delivery date may impact our ability to cover your claim.
When will I receive my order?+
When you will receive your order depends primarily on three factors
When we receive your payment (checks and wires must be initiated/sent by you).
Please note that you will receive a Paid email once your payment is received.
Holding period after cleared payment.
Depending on your payment method, we will hold the order once payment is received and cleared. The hold periods by payment method are listed in checkout and in your confirmation email. Paper checks take the longest and are held up to five business days after payment clears.
Shipping method and transit time.
UPS 3-Day Air is the fastest and most reliable method of shipping. These are usually delivered in 1-3 business days once in transit.
USPS is less consistent in both transit time and tracking accuracy.
What happens if my order is lost in transit?+
All packages shipped by JM Bullion are covered by insurance subject to certain conditions. In the unlikely event that your order is Lost in Transit, you need to contact us immediately. Lost in Transit is defined for the USPS as tracking not having updated in 5 or more calendar days. For UPS, it is 3 calendar days. You must contact us within 7 days since last tracking for USPS and 3 days since last tracking for UPS. If you do not contact us by these timeframes, insurance will not cover the package.
Once you contact us, we research the shipment with the carrier and begin the claim process. The claims process can take 30 or more days to resolve, and many Lost in Transit shipments end up getting delivered late. If the package is delivered, you must notify us within 24 hours.
See also Section 13 of our Terms and Conditions.
What happens if my order is damaged in transit?+
Though unlikely, if your order is damaged during transit and/or any items are missing we require you to contact JM Bullion immediately so we can begin the claims process. If you have taken possession of a shipment that is damaged and/or is missing items, you have 2 days (48 hours) from the date of delivery to contact us as stated in our Terms and Conditions.
Will I need to sign for my package?+
Orders under $1000 will not require a signature unless that option is selected and paid for at checkout. Orders over $1000 will always require a signature for delivery. Please note, per our Terms and Conditions, once a package shows delivered, our responsibility ends. Please be available and attentive to receive the package when the courier arrives. Due to COVID 19, couriers are not always getting the signature.
What if my order shows delivered but I did not receive it?+
Please note that JM Bullion will not be responsible for reimbursements or insurance claims on packages that are successfully delivered as addressed. Our liability and insurance cease the moment the package is signed for or left at the specified delivery address. Any issues or problems with a shipment MUST be reported to JM Bullion within two (2) calendar days of recorded delivery, else JM Bullion may deny any claim.
Do you ship internationally?+
We only ship to U.S. addresses (including P.O. Boxes and APO addresses). We do not ship to U.S. territories.
Do I have to ship my order to my billing address?+
Depending on your method of payment, it is possible to have your order shipped to an address other than your billing address. If you pay with paper check, bank wire, ACH, Ethereum, Ripple, or bitcoin, you may have your order shipped wherever you please, with two exceptionsUPS locations and mail forwarding locations. If you pay with a credit/debit card, it depends on your order history. For credit cards, put the order through with your billing address as the shipping address, and then call us to see if we can change it to an alternate.

How will I know when my order ships?+
We will notify you by email once your order ships. You can also check the current status by logging in to your account or using ourTrack An Orderpage.
How do I choose my shipping method?+
You may choose how your order is shipped during the checkout process. In the last section of the checkout page, 4 Shipping Method, you will see the available shipping options for your order. If your purchase is eligible for free shipping, the pre-selected option will be base shipping, which is either USPS or UPS at our choice. If you would like to upgrade your shipping, you may choose one of the other options for a small fee. Simply click on the circle next to the shipping method you desire, and your order will be shipped via that method.
If my order includes an item on presale, will the in-stock items ship first?+
Unfortunately, due to the way insurance is applied to an order, everything must ship at the same time (i.e., in-stock items must await shipment until all presale items have arrived). Your order will ship in its entirety within 24-72 hours of our receiving the presale item. An email notification will be sent when your order ships.
Do you ship to US territories?+
We do not ship to US territories. Due to special requirements set by the postal systems, we are unable to ship outside of U.S. states.
What does “No Will Call” mean?+
All UPS shipments ship with a No Will Call restriction, meaning the package cannot be picked up from a UPS location. This is a precaution to prevent orders from being fraudulently intercepted.
UPS will make three delivery attempts. If nobody is available at the delivery address to sign and accept delivery, the package will be returned to us.
Where do you ship orders from?+
All orders will ship from our warehouse in Las Vegas, Nevada. We mask our return address on all packages as to not give away the contents of the package.
Do you offer UPS shipping to Alaska and Hawaii?+
No, we do not. The costs in shipping to these places is extremely prohibitive, so we utilize USPS on all shipments.
Do we ship to P.O. Boxes?+
Yes! When products are shipped via the United States Postal Service, we can ship to a P.O. Box. Please note that insurance on shipments to P.O. Boxes ends as soon as the package shows delivered.

Each year on the day before the annual SEMA Show begins, a grab-bag of trucks from locations all over the country are parked outside of the Las Vegas Convention Center. Some may already be placed in their feature spot locations while others are waiting for exhibitor booths to be finished with the setup process before they can be moved and parked inside. There are also trucks placed in outdoor booth areas on display or as we found in several locations today, getting some last minute additions or a thorough cleaning before their SEMA debut.

Whether it's a laid-out C50 known as the Nighttrain, a sky-high '66 crew cab known as Ponderosa or even the Bad Habit Monster Truck sporting an F100 body, classics were out in full force. There were plenty of impressive Chevy trucks to check out including the first brand new standard cab lying on the pavement and a heavily modified Luv in the Hot Wheels display area. If you're into SUV's, the Phat Phabz built Lincoln Navigator was spotted outside the central hall drawing large crowds both times we made our way through the area.

When it was said that the Rockies were interested in possibly acquiring Phil Hughes, everyone laughed out loud to the idea of him pitching in the Colorado launching pad. If his problem is giving up too many home runs, the solution isn't to stick him in one of the most homer-prone stadiums in the league. JumpinJackFlash knows exactly how Rockies games would go if he actually ended up playing for them:
When Let's Talk About Tex Baby has something to say it usually ends up being green. Apparently the Yankees have asked about Asdrubal Cabrera on multiple occasions and the community was split over the idea of acquiring a league-average shortstop with terrible defensive ratings, but Tex Baby might have summed up the situation the best:
People were angry over Derek Jeter's injury, but the best way to combat pain is to laugh about it, and the commenters of PSA did just that. Jeter strained his quad hustling to first base on a ground out, but you would obviously never see Robinson Cano do that, even though that's not really a bad thing. Michael Brown planned to defend Cano the only way he knew how and GMan8321 chimed in with the inevitable knock against Dustin Pedroia:
Travis Hafner missed a game after fouling a ball off his foot while hitting in the batting cage during Wednesday's game. The consensus seems to be that this is the most 2013 Yankees injury to ever happen. It looks like he'll be ok, but with Hafner you can never be too sure that he won't break into pieces. Obviously, people are frustrated with the Yankees' misfortunes this season:
The final roster spot for the All-Star Game has been voted on and decided and David Robertson ended up coming in second to the Blue Jays' Steve Delabar, who received 9.6 million votes. Feeling that D-Rob was robbed, our own Joe Flynn took to twitter to voice his unhappiness the final results:
