With business lending in the UK falling to the lowest levels since 2006 it is estimated that a £21bn deficit will hit smaller businesses particularly hard. The problem has come about thanks to the ongoing economic downturn and, despite the government’s insistence that we are now out of the recession,
The business bank recently set up Business Secretary Vince Cable is also singled out for lack of progress. Accountants say that the intended lending from this government initiative is unlikely to cover the deficit that is being faced by Small and Medium Enterprises (SME’s). Quite what can be done to recover the situation is not clear, but it is hoped that 2013 will see a slight increase in lending levels and create a positive outlook for the future of smaller business in the UK.

Dave Chappelle storms off stage
However, Chappelle’s attempt to outdo Cook failed after five hours when he was disqualified by owner Jamie Masada for taking a bathroom break.
The original record was set by the late Richard Pryor who spent two hours and 41 minutes on stage in 1980. Chappelle previously recorded a time of six hours before Cook’s triumph in 2008.

LANSING — A state representative told Michigan State Police troopers he had approval over their budget and threatened to call Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer as he tussled with them after driving his car into a ditch while drunk on Interstate 96 near Fowlerville, according to police reports Rep. Jewell Jones, D-Inkster, at one point identified himself as a state representative and at another point flashed a badge and said he was an-off duty officer during the April 6 incident, according to the reports prepared by MSP officials and obtained by the Free Presss' black 2017 Chevy Tahoe, with the vanity plate "ELECTED," the reports.
"ov. Whitmer right now," a combative and highly intoxicated Jones told the troopers during a struggle to get him handcuffed, according to the police reports.
"When I call Gretchen," Jones reportedly told the troopers, he would need their "IDs, badge numbers, everything."
According to the report, the troopers would not let Jones have his cell phone and there is no evidence he attempted to call the governor, who is also a Democrat.
At another point, Jones allegedly told the troopers that what they were doing was "not going to be good for you" because he was in charge of their budget, according to the reports.

th and the hundreds more who are wounded.”
According to the annual FBI Uniform Crime Report, fewer than 12,000 people are murdered with firearms each year. Between the years 2008 and 2015, the tallies were less than 10,000, according to FBI data65 people were murdered with firearms.
Some also suggest it’s a bad way to launch a new campaign by using misleading rhetoric.
They plan to set up “virtual campaign offices with cutting edge tools and training” across the country. Organizers are being hired in “battleground states,” and notably absent from that list are Washington and Oregon, suggesting anti-gun Democrats take those states for granted.
Here is the list of so-called “battleground states” the billionaire-backed Everytown Action Fund wants to fliphis list has been expanded with the addition of Ohio since the campaign was originally announced in early April.
This week’s emails are also asking for donations to help fund the effort, even though Everytown is supported by anti-gun billionaire,.
- Hire organizers focused on registering voters in key battleground states
- Establish virtual field offices, where students will gather to strategize how to meet voter registration goals
- Pay for cutting edge organizing tools and technology for our virtual field offices
- Train student volunteers in relational organizing, which involves leveraging people in their peer networks and encouraging them to vote. This organizingvassing, allowing volunteers to register their friends, family, classmates, and acquaintances — all online
- Develop online voter registration ads designed specifically for young people

The tree frog is easily recognisable due to its pure green trunk and the discs on
fingers and toes. It is the only native amphibian that can climb. It can often be seen sitting on leafs of shrubs and bushes. The calls of the male during the breeding season
(“repp- repp- repp...“) are very loud and can be heard from a great distance. During the
summer, calls can also be heard in the summer habitats of the species.
Tree frogs seek shallow, well lit and fish-free ponds for mating. Often the ponds dry up in late
summer. The summer habitats are in sunny and humid hedges and woodland edges. They can climb into the crowns of the trees.
Tree frogs are very mobile and can move larger distances between their different habitats. Newly
created ponds are often populated. But not all ponds populated by male frogs will also have breeding females.
In Lower Saxony the main distribution of the tree frog is in the lowlands. There are a few records
from the uplands. The tree frog is by nature not present in the North West due to the climatic conditions. Following the loss of suitable habitat, especially breeding ponds, the tree frog
population has significantly declined in recent decades. It has disappeared from many areas altogether.

Jameela Jamil Points Out Khloé Kardashian Deletes Her Diet Shake Post: ‘There Is Hope’
Speaking your mind pays off. On March 22, Jameel Jamil slammed Khloé Kardashian for endorsing meal replacement diet shake products on Instagram, and it looks like the 34-year-old reality star got the message because she deleted the photo of the ad just two weeks after the backlash.
Kim Kardashian then chimed in to defend her little sis and their family. “Yo” she said. Finally, mama Kris Jenner weighed in with what seems to be the biggest mood of all. “I don’t live in that negative energy space,” she

Apparently an r what Bug Traq says is “testing purposes.” The exploit is being distributed as a Mac OS X package, which includes DNS and ARP spoofing software. The package also includes the cgi scripts, and apache configuration files required to impersonate the Apple Software Update Server.
While the exploit data focused on Mac OS X, John C. Welch, a Networking Columnist with Workingmac.com, said Mac OS 9 is also vulnerable. “I did a packet trace on the Mac OS 9 version, and it had the same issues. No encryption, no authentication. As long as the server gives the right answers, it’s going to download and install. All you have to do is hijack it and install an FBA or a malicious AppleScript, and a Mac OS 9 box is just as vulnerable.
Start signing their downloads with a public/private encryption key pair, so that Software Update or the Installer can verify that it is the package posted by Apple.

hi guys anyone please can tell me how to replicate projectiles. i just dont get why it is not working. the projectile is being spawned by the server but no matter what i try the clients never see each others projectiles only there own.
DevilsD January 30, 2016, 1:42am #2
Is your Projectile set to Replicate?
If it doesn't Replicate itself it wont be visible to other Players.
DEDRICK January 30, 2016, 1:47am #3
You need to Set Replicates on the return value of SpawnActor OR set the actor to replicate in the blueprint
EniGmaa January 30, 2016, 9:03am #4
tried that still doesn't work
besides i had already done that in the editor
DEDRICK January 30, 2016, 3:26pm #5
Have you set the owner of the gun? and you also need an instigator on the projectile spawn
The gun also needs to replicate in my experience. Also needs an owner and instigator or the server doesn’t know who stuff belongs to. You can set owner on pickup or on spawn.
Replication is a *****, miss one checkmark and stuff stops working. Variables are the fun ones because you need to figure out what needs replication and what doesn’t
EniGmaa February 2, 2016, 12:41am #6
Hmm I had an imstigator but not owner ok thanks ill give it a shot and get back to you thanks
EniGmaa February 4, 2016, 10:46am #7
Ok so after a lot of playing around I think the problem is the bullet mesh is too small and moving too fast to be seen. When I changed the mesh to a giant rock I was able to see it flying through the air.
instead im going to just use a bullet trail emitter and then one again at the impact point. I have it spawning at the muzzle point but then how do I attach it to the bullet or do I just move it the same as the bullet .
and then the replication. At the moment the bullet is spawned server side the emitter is spawned server side so obv it is only showing up on the server and not the clients so what would I have to do to replicate the bullet trajectory and emitter trail to all clients?? make a multicast event and spawn amd move the emitter as well??
DEDRICK February 4, 2016, 5:14pm #8
Can you do Event BeginPlay Spawn Emitter Attached (Projectile mesh) in the projectile itself? Because the projectile is replicated the emitter should automatically be replicated.
Multicast is good for when you are doing a Hitscan(Linetrace) weapon and need the emitter to spawn on both the client and server. Server does Linetrace and Emitter, Client just does emitter
EniGmaa February 4, 2016, 8:25pm #9
okso after hours of frustration it turns out the answer was easier than i thought you do not even need to spawn it or nothing. in you’re projectile blueprint just add the particle system as a component like so
and then select the particle effect in the editor.
and voila you now have a particle effect that attaches and follows the bullet.
DEDRICK February 4, 2016, 10:33pm #10
That tracer reminds me of beta Planetside 2 NC tracers
One question though. Why are you not using a projectile movement component? It provides a lot of functionality like Gravity, muzzle velocity and bouncing
EniGmaa February 5, 2016, 6:26am #11
Well to be completetly honesst im still quite new to unreal and also shooting games so far ive only made melee combat and rpg systems etc so at the time I didn't even know about the projectile movement component so I ended up writing my own custom functions to move the bullet , add wind etc .
also not sure if anyone else does this but instead of using collisions to detect if the bullet has hit or not i do a tiny line trace from the bullet if it doesn't hit what i want it keeps calling the move function to move itself and if it does hit It calls the impact function and applies decals, damage etc .
Yggdrasil February 5, 2016, 3:45pm #12
That is actually quite clever of you.
EniGmaa February 7, 2016, 11:56am #13
ok so everything seemed to be fine but i was getting weird kind of tracer lag when fireing. i am going to try to use the projectile movement component instead of manually moving the projectile myself. Can someone tell me how to set it up please i keep getting weird results where the projectile now doesn't fire where im aiming etc thanks
DEDRICK February 7, 2016, 5:36pm #14
Projectile movement uses Local Space X for muzzle velocity or direction and converts it to world space when the projectile is spawned. So if you want your projectile to have a 80m/s muzzle velocity put 8000 in X.
When doing math calculations to initial muzzle velocity, like momentum inheritance(TRIBES), you need to use Set Velocity in Local space. When you put these 2 images together you can see how my weapons handle speed and inheritance and pass it to the projectile
Wind you should be able to to use the world space velocity, which can be pulled from Projectile Movement or Get Actor Velocity
Aryan-Arush April 24, 2021, 11:42am #15
ok this is good and all but in my game that i am working on only the server’s projectiles replicate, i would also like to replicate the clients projectiles and how do i do that please explain?

Anyway, the alterations to the recipe were made for my arms sake, so I melted the butter in the microwave and then used the whisking attachment on my food processor (this wins the prize for the least used attachment I think) to beat the butter and sugar up together. I mixed the flour and spices in by hand, as that and the rest was fairly straightforward. An hour and 10 minutes later...Spiced Apple Cake...

Enter your name, and witness the short (and somehow exciting) intro, which leads into a conversation with Jounouchi. Gasp, as Yugi runs in and starts crying… The Millennium Puzzle is missing, and it’s up to Yugi, Jounouchi and…
*YOU* to get it back ^_^
Sit through a rather long (and Japanese) dialogue, involving the main characters. The woman in white is Ishizu, who plays a rather major (largely tedious) role in the walkthrough – so remember her!
This area of the Domino City is called ‘Domino Plaza’. Explore it if you like, and find your way into the bottom-right screen. There, more to the bottom right of the screen, past the road-block, and you’ll reach the Kaiba Corp building, just in time to watch an exchange between Seto, Mokuba, and the first ‘cool cameo’ of the game – Rebecca Hawkins.
2 Minutes of Japanese later, and we have our first duel.. Unfortunately for you, I’m not covering the duels in this guide (partly because I suck, and partly because Pokemon is out tomorrow), which means your on your own…
Once victory is assured, the guards will let you pass through the barrier, and onto the station platform. On the downside, Panik arrives, and gets through the barrier with much less hassle.
On the platform, head right, into the “white bit”, which is apparently a train. On-board, walk to the left of the carriage, and challenge the guard (in white) to a duel. He’ll decline, but keep talking to him, and the train will start moving (complete with train noises, and random screen shaking ^_^). Once the train is in motion, challenge him again, for your 3rd duel.
Once beaten, the guard will move out of the way, allowing access to the door he was guarding. Enter it, for a confrontation with Panik (and a snazzy new red duelling board ^_^)
Neat touch : Before Panik duels you, all the lights in the carriage go out.
Watch the brief cut-scene, involving Yugi, Jounouchi, and the OMINOUS PERSON IN BLACK, which leads to a duel. This segues into one of the coolest cut-scenes any Yu-Gi-Oh fan could ever wish for, as the OPIB (Ominous Person In Black) hands Yugi the Millennium Tauk (A Millennium Item which lets the bearer see into the future). What Yugi sees is a vision of Domino City burning to the ground, with the person responsible panning into the picture, and slowly turning around, to grin at the camera – it’s Yami.
After Yugi finishes crying, head out of the room, for an exchange with Seto and Mokuba. Once they leave, head left, then left again, to get to the “WORLDMAP” screen (All Rights Reserved, Kaiba Corporation Ltd.)
On the World Map, choose to go back to Domino Plaza (represented by a picture of the clock), to consult Ishizu, on the matters of evil pharaohs, and ominous people in black. Fortunately, before Ishizu can start another 5-minute dialogue, everything gets interrupted by a random stranger, who looks like a pallete-swapped Red Mage. Deal with him, however, and your rewarded with the very first re-appearance of…
Marvel at just how cool they managed to make him look, and when your done, suffer through Ishizu’s speech, and head back into the station, where a new area of Domino has opened up (Domino Harbour). Make your way there, and then climb the stairs, boarding the ship in time to watch a ‘duel’ between Magnum and Mai. After the exchange, talk to Mai, and agree to duel Magnum.
Once you’ve dealt with him, talk to Mai again, to open the doorway on the right. Enter, to find an cargo hold, complete with it’s own OMINOUS PERSON IN BLACK. Take him down, for your 2nd Millennium Item, and a brief cameo from Shadi. Once he’s gone, leave the boat, and head right, back to Domino Plaza. Talk to you-know-who, for another ‘enlightening’ conversation, which closes the first section of the game.
With 2 Millennium Items in their possession, Yugi, Jounouchi and the player prepare to head to Europe. Usually, this would be a daunting task, but thanks to the incredible power of ‘Konami’, Europe can be reached by walking one screen to the left. On the World Map, select the wondrous new location on the left of the screen – Italy.
..Now, I’ve never been to Italy, but I always expected it to comprise of a little more than a dank basement, and 2 old people.. However, head down the stairs, to find Bonez. Accept his duel, and witness another wonder of Duel Monsters 8 – sampled speech. Dispatch of Bonez quickly, and get ready for a series of cool cameos..
If you have the heart to make Rare Hunter, Strings, Pandora and Bandit Keith leave the screen, advance through the conversation (SLOWLY – you need to appreciate the cool new character art), and speak to Bonez again. Follow him to the right, and then into the chamber, for a surprise encounter with… Ominous Person In Black.
Beat him, for the Millennium Ring, and a brief encounter with Bakura, then go all the way back to Domino Plaza, for an entirely enjoyable, and not at all repetitive conversation, with Ishizu, to open up what I can only assume is China.
Talk to the monk, head right, talk to the monk there, and then go back to the first screen, to challenge the monk to a duel. Surprise! It’s not really a generic Chinese monk – it’s actually Para. I dealt with him in short order, and received.. Labyrinth Wall! Co-incidence?.. Who knows – I’m not duelling him again, to find out :{
At this point, it all gets a bit silly, as.. Dox (?) back-flips across the screen, and Seto and Mokuba randomly show up, in time for a convenient “TAG DUEL”, which is in fact a completely regular duel, in every respect. The prize for your efforts is the Gate Guardian (I thought these rewards were meant to be at least somewhat random?), and a cut-scene which explains the ‘tag’ element (Seto calling a Blue-Eyes White Dragon to completely destroy the other twin). The twins both run away, and Seto leaves, allowing you to walk 2 screen to the right, for a SHOCKING encounter with Ominous Guy In Black.
Beat him, for the Millennium Eye, and another encounter with Pegasus. After that, leave China, and.. You know what? I’m going to let you guess what to do next – I think your ready for it.
Suffer Isis (and an appearance by Seto), for a nice cameo from Tristian, and Serenity (!), before heading to the Kaiba Corp building (bottom-right of Domino Plaza), for an even nicer cut-scene, recapping the events of the Noa’s Arc anime series. Challenge (and beat) Jinzo, and the Big Five will turn into the great big, Five-Headed Dragon Thingy, from the Kaiba Virtual World episodes of the anime series. This leads to some Seto Kaiba Cosplay Action ©2003 Kaiba Corp. After the stage show, talk to Ishizu, to open up a new location : Canada
Like Europe (and Asia), Canada is reached by walking one screen to the left, and selecting it from the world map, For some reason, it’s represented by a rock, with a tent next to it ^^;
Once you get to Canada, there’s no time to hang about, so furry (sorry about this ^^;) into the cave, for a meeting with Rex Raptor. The inevitable duel follows (on a new, rock-themed duelling board, complete with speech samples)
Deal with Rex, and walk right, and.. Oh my god! It’s the Ominous Person In Black! Whatever if he doing here? Duel him for your usual reward (a nice cameo ^_^) from none other than Marik!
Leave the cave, and… Yeah, that’s Canada – hope you enjoyed it, because it’s time to talk to Ishizu again. After the tedium, Ishizu opens the Galapagos – a group of remote islands, located one screen to the left of Ishizu. When you get there, talk to Mako, choose the top option (for some reason), head left, and straight past Weevil.
(WHAT!?!? No mandatory duel?), into the temple.
Cue the suitably mysterious music, as Yami steals the Millennium Scales before your very eyes, and tries to make his escape. Yugi and Jounouchi corner him, forcing him to unveil that he’s actually.. Er.. That guy in Duelist Kingdom, who disguised himself as the ‘zombie’ Seto Kaiba.. Anyway – it’s not actually Yami, it is in fact.. Another duel!
Dispatch of the shape-shifter, for the Millennium Scales, and a visit from Shadi. Leave, Ishizu talk, and head to Kaiba Corp. Talk to Set, and head back towards Ishizu.
Chapter 3: The Rare Hunters
As 2 cloaked figures appear, talk to, duel and defeat both of them, then head up one screen, for a strange cut-scene, and another duel.
Head left 2 screens, and watch the exchange between Rare Hunter and Espa Roba (complete with SD Exodia ^_^) Duel Rare Hunter, and dispatch of him in short order, before he gets a chance to use you-know-what. Your rewards is a piece of you-know-what, and a chance to replenish your life points, after 4 consecutive duels.
Once your done, head to the bottom-left of the plaza, towards the Game shop, for a cute scene involving Serenity, Otogi and Honda. Go to the station, and head for Domino Harbour, then onto the ship, in time to save Mai from Pandora. Duel him, then head back to the world map, and back to Italy. Find (and save) Bonez, in a tough duel, to rid Italy of the menace.
Back to the world map again, and this time re-visit China, where Weevil has magically appeared, just in time to meet Umbra & Lumis. This is another of those great ‘Tag’ duels, which yet again, takes the form of a regular duel.
With China saved from the evil menace of people in purple robes, move onto the great country of Canada for another predictable duel, before finally moving back to the Galapagos, for an exchange between Mako and Strings.
Talk to Mako, agree to duel Strings, and then head back to Domino Plaza, for a dialogue between Espa Roba, and his brothers.. With that over, head to the Kaiba Corp building for a cut-scene..
As the stage show erupts into chaos, Espa Roba takes a stand, against Rare Hunter, which (of course) means YOU duelling him. After the duel, Jinzo attacks… Jinzo.. And the Gurus’ Hunters leave the plaza, and head to the train station. Head to where Ishizu should be, talk to her replacement (Espa), enter the station, and go to the left-most location in Domino City. Head through the barriers, onto the train, and to the left of the carriage, to confront the cloaked figure. Beat him, and head through the carriage, for another duel with another generic cloaked figure. Repeat as necessary, and when informed by the guard, leave the train.
Approach the figures on the left for a duel, and then head into towards the barriers for yet another. Deal with either of the Gurus in the barrier room, and then follow them to the top-right exit, in time to watch Seto Kaiba’s last stand. Seto insists on dealing with the Gurus himself, leaving you to hurry to the top-right exit, and a date with Bandit Keith.
Bandit, duelist, Gurus leader, and hero to us all, Bandit Keith holds Ishizu to ransom, and relieves you of your 6 Millennium Items. Unknown to Yugi, Keith already has the Millennium Puzzle, and one of the God Cards. Duel and defeat him, before he can summon it, and sit back, as Yugi summons Osiris. Keith’s Millennium Puzzle responds to Osiris’ presence, and transfers itself from Keith to Yugi, prompting an appearance from Yami, and a tearful reunion.
Before much can happen, Ra appears, and attacks Keith, who drops the God Card, and proceeds to die. Ishizu gives the card to the player, cue a strange cut-scene, Keith’s resurrection, and the destruction of the Millennium Puzzle.
When Yugi stops crying, head out of the room, in time to witness Mokuba’s kidnapping (at the hands of Para & Dox). Seto leaves, and gets replaced with OMINOUS PERSON IN BLACK! (did you miss him as much as I did?) Follow Seto, Ishizu and OPIB out of the room, and head left, to the world map.
Take a trip to Domino Plaza, and talk to Mai, Weevil, Mako, Rex and Bonez, who will all leave. Once they’ve all left, head to the station, and onto China, for the mandatory appearance of Simon Muran. After the dialogue, head back to Domino Plaza, for some hot, hot Ishizu action.
After Ishizu finishes her piece, direct your attention towards Domino Station, where you can now visit Egypt. Head on over there, through the interstellar wonders of going left one screen, and talks to Rishid, who leads you to…
Marik summons Ra (because he can), and tells you to prepare for a tough endeavour. Leave Egypt, and head back to China, for more fun with Simon Muran. After the dialogue, go to the right, and duel with Ominous Person In Black for what must be the 10th time, already.
Your reward is passage to the right of the screen, and.. Another duel with Ominous Person In Black!
(ARE WE HAVING FUN YET?)
Anyway, duel Ominous Person In Black a STUPID amount of times, and eventually, he’ll disappear, allowing you passage into the temple, for a REALLY annoying exchange, with Simon Muran.
The idea here is that you need to give Simon the correct responses, or he sends you back to deal with Ominous Person In Black, for another 20 duels. If you value your sanity, I suggest giving him the following answers…
..And it’s time to du-du-du-du-du-du-du-duel!
Dispatch with Simon ONCE (phew!), and a new area will open up..
Chapter 4 : Pegasus’ Lair
This next section is INCREDIBLY tough, and most of the time, you’ll find yourself forced into field changes, which mean only flying monsters can attack. Take preparations before you head to the cable-car, because you need to make the cable-car trip (complete with duels) each time you die. Just to be safe, take as many Harpie Lady-related cards as you can, as well as her 3 brothers, and any other strong flying monsters you can get your hands on.
.. From the opening dialogue with Ishizu, get into the cable-car, and duel the Pegasus cosplayers, who interrupts Jounouchi’s conversation. After 3 duels, the tram reaches the end of the line, where you’ll be greeted by Panik (and friend). When prompted by Jounouchi, choose the top option to duel Panik, and the bottom option to duel the shape-shifter. I advise the latter. After the duel, Panik confronts Jounouchi, who proceeds to fight them off, letting Yugi (and the player) sneak past them.
With Panik out of the way, your taken back to the World Map, where a new location (Dasoji Yoso), which is hidden located inside Pegasus’ Lair. Head there right away, for a cut-scene starring Pegasus (and his cronies)
When Peggy’s minions appear, head left, up and then right, duelling along the way, until you encounter Para & Dox. Once again, you have the option of which to duel, and once again, the bottom option gives a slightly easier duel. After the duel, Yugi calls the Black Magician to dispose of them.
Neat touch : He calls the Black Magician from the original manga, not the one from the anime.
In a weird moment, Yugi decides to hold off both Para & Dox, letting the player advance to Pegasus Castle (which is now added to the map) After Simon Muran appears (and does little of note), enter the castle, for a message from Pegasus, and a RIDICULOUSLY though duel with Bonez.. And another.. You may notice (much to your delight), that no matter how many times you duel Bonez, he keeps coming back. The solution (ssj4 trunx is my hero, btw) is to leave the castle, head to Italy, find the REAL Bonez, and duel him. Then talk to Real Bonez, and you should hear a jingle, signalling the end to this silliness. Now, head back to Pegasus’ Castle, and duel the imposter one last time.
Horah! Now you can finally move through the door, for a confrontation with. Imposter Rex.. Beat Rex, and repeat the process, of Imposter – Original – Imposter, this time going to Canada, to meet Rex.. And then the Galapagos for Weevil, back to Galapagos again, for Mako, Domino Plaza for Espa Roba, and finally, Domino Harbour for Mai. (Jesus, if Pegasus’ evil plan is to drive everyone insane with tedium, he’s doing a damn good job..)
After Mai is dealth with (Time-wasting duel count : 18 in a row) Ishizu conviniently shows up, in time to see Seto’s inevitable reunion with Mokuba, who you’re going to duel (obviously). This is FINALLY followed by the duel with Seto that you’ve all been waiting for (comeplete with AWESOME speech samples, and special BEWD-summoning rules, which apply only to him).
Defeat Seto (hahaha!) and get ready for The Big One ™ – Pegasus
Win the duel, and all 3 Gods will attack Pegasus, causing the stone tablet behind him to revive, which seems to summon that giant mech monster, from all the Dance Dance Revolution background movies (I’m not making this up). All of a sudden, Seto, Jounouchi and Yugi show up, and in a change of heart (hehe), Pegasus hands Yugi the missing piece of the Millennium Puzzle (which Keith stole). With the puzzle back in one piece, Yami appears, various Blue-Eyes White Dragons, Red-Eyes Black Dragons and Black Magicians are all called, but the combined power isn’t enough to beat the evil of Naoki.
And of course, if several gigantic monsters aren’t enough to destroy something, there’s only one thing to do!… Play cards with it o.O
With the duel over, Pegasus makes something vaguely resembling a self- sacrifice, in order to destroy the monster, and since this is an RPG, the castle inevitably starts to crumble, leading to the obligatory ‘sprites running out of the castle’ bit, and an air-lift from Mokuba.. Who can’t possibly have ran back to the Kaiba Corp building to get the helicoptor in the time it too..
Note to self : Stop trying to make sense of this game.
Now enjoy a strange epilogue, features characters so obscure, I didn’t even bother mentioning them in the walkthrough.
The reward for winning is a new location on the map (in the bottom-right), which consists of a room in which you can talk to (and duel) Yami, Pegasus, Seto, Shadi, Simon Muran, Bakura (!), Noa (!!) and the Marik-controlled version of Jounouchi (from Battle City).
Enjoy, because the novelty factor almost makes it worth it ^_^

I've never liked the idea that we have labeled camps "Pro-choice" and "Pro- life" as though you have to decide if you are one, or the other. Really?I am absolutely for choice and for life. I think most of us are. We are Americans, after all. We value freedom above most things, and who among us does not truly value life?

GUILLEN COMBATS FLOODING IN WILLACY COUNTY
AUSTIN – District 31 is currently struggling with subsequent flooding in and around Willacy County. Representative Guillen has been working diligently with the Governors' office and the local emergency service districts to support and alleviate some of the hardships being faced in the RGV. Flood control mitigation was a top priority this session, and the ongoing process of improvement is critical to the safety of all Texans.
In the wake of Hurricane Harvey, a flash flood recently hit Ryan Guillen's District 31 and caused subsequent flooding in Hidalgo, Willacy and Cameron Counties. The flooding hasnd has prevented hundreds more from getting to work or having access to essential goods.
Currently, Willacy County, along with Hidalgo and Cameron, are conducting pumping operations to push water out of the affected areas, and the Texas Military, TxDOT and Texas Task Force 1 are being utilized to evacuate citizens and provide food shelter and clothing to those in need.
Evacuations are underway by Texas Task Force 1 - (888) 999-9775
Clothing is being provided by FEMA Transitional Sheltering Assistance - 800-621-FEMA (3362)
Sheltering and feeding is being provided by the American Red Cross - (956) 423-0523
What to do after Your Home Floods:
Document your damage with pictures and evidence
Make sure people know how to contact you
File a claim with FEMA, NFIP, or your insurer
The Disaster Relief Centers locations and hours of operation are:
9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday-Friday 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday
This session, Guillen and the Texas legislature, voted in favor of SB 500, which will allocate $2.8 billion in funds towards disaster prevention projects, and SB 7 which will provide $1.6 billion to establish two new funds, the Texas Infrastructure Resiliency Fund and the Flood Infrastructure Fund, both to be used to address the effects of Hurricane Harvey and prepare for future flooding and disasterthat released $4 billion in funding to go towards disaster response.
Guillen also authored a number of bills during the 86th legislative session to help provide support to communities after a disaster such as HB 492 - providing property tax exemptions after a disaster, HB 1028 - increasing the looting penalty during a disaster, HB 1152 - capping prices of essential goods during a disaster, HB 3616 - coordinating efforts with faith-based organizations during a disaster, and HB 3668 - providing grants to non-profit foodbanks to prepare for a disaster event.
"Improving recovery efforts after natural disasters will be crucial for years to come," said Guillen, "Increasing funding to deal with those disasters is an important step for our legislature, but the conversation needs to continue next session."
The recent flooding tragedy in Willacy only makes the bills passed by Representative Guillen even more important, and proves his commitment to protecting Texans and their interests.

7 Autos and 3 Relic cards inside!
The cards have a glossy front and a matte finish on the reverse. The card design is in the same ballpark as the Topps base set this year. The front has an action shot of most of the players and gold foil imprinting. The reverse has personal stats and a short write up on some of the player's highlights and maybe why he was chosen for the USA Collegiate Team.
This issue - USA Collegiate Boxed Set - I would recommend to any baseball collector. These should be the stars of tomorrow. I especially like the packaging of the set - the box is heavy duty and will allow for secure, damage-free storage.
Go buy several boxed sets and send the multicolor triple patches to me!!
very cool set! autos are HOT looking!
Those that are at Target/Walmart etc are the retail boxes. They sell for $9.99 and carry the full 61 card set and just one autograph. I bought one myself and pulled a nice auto of Clate Schmidt (or Clate S as he signed it).
They are, indeed, nice cards and very well packaged. I'd advise picking up at least a retail set if you can't afford the $100 hobby box.
I pulled a redemption card for the 2011 topps chrome set of refractors for that set. I hope it is packed with as many goodies as that box set was.
great pullls!! is the Brandon Cline for trade?

You are here: Home Latest News Landlords – what you need to know in 2021/22
Landlord advice can be challenging to wade through and it can be even harder to keep up with all the changes to rules and regulations around letting property to tenantsn 2021 there are currently 168 laws affecting private landlords, a 40% increase in the last decade. One of the most high-profile pieces of guidance in 2021 for landlords is the new model tenancy agreement which was introduced in January and includes steps designed to make it easier for pet owners to rent property – in theory, at least.
Here we explain all the changes landlords should look for in 2021 and what to expect in 2022.
Letting property to tenants with pets
Lockdown loneliness triggered a surge in pet ownership and this went hand in hand with The Negotiator reporting an increase in searches on Rightmove for pet-friendly homes to rent, with the portal reporting a 120% rise in demand for properties where the landlord accepts cats or dogs.
Updates to the model tenancy agreement in January 2021 provide guidance on letting to tenants in England with pets, although it’s important to note that the changes are just guidance and not the law.
The updated model tenancy agreement states that tenants wishing to keep pets should seek written consent from the landlord in advance. In response, the landlord:
shouldt;
should accept such a request if they believe the tenant to be a responsible pet owner and the pet is suitable for the property;
should respond to the written request within 28 days of receipt, otherwise consent is deemed to be granted;
must not charge a fee for keeping a pet, although they may increase the deposit as long as it is and, in line with the Tenant Fees Act 2019, does not exceed the deposit cap which is the equivalent of five weeks’ rent for assured shorthold tenancies up to an annual rent of up to £50,000. (Source: DPS)
This change was tentatively called a “step in the right direction” by Dogs Trust’s Lets with Pets campaign, although landlords can still refuse to take pets and don’t have to use the model tenancy agreement at all. However, this issue is not going away. There is pressure from cross-party MPs to relax the Tenant Fees Act to allow landlords to stipulate that tenants take out insurance against pet damage, and the proposed.
Meanwhile, Lets with Pets has created some landlord advice for those considering accepting tenants with pets.
Letting with pets in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland
The model tenancy agreement in Scotland was updated in April 2021 to accommodate emergency COVID-19 procedures which will remain in place until 31st March 2022. However, unlike the model tenancy agreement in England, the pet clause has not changed. In Scotland, the model tenancy agreement says tenants must not keep animals or pets without prior written consent from the landlord. Mydeposits Scotland has landlord advice about pet clauses.
One difference in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland is that landlords cancy deposit. This can be used at the end of the tenancy for any damage caused by the pet and, like the tenancy deposit, must be protected in a recognised tenancy deposit scheme.
The Welsh Government is currently consulting new draft regulations linked to the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016, although the RSPCA has expressed disappointment that the proposals have no specific reference to the keeping of pets.
How has the coronavirus pandemic changed Right to Rent checks?
To minimisemporary changes to Right to Rent checks in March 2020, allowing landlords to check a tenant’s right to rent in the UK remotely. These changes remain in place until 5th April 2022 and any checks carried out remotely will remain valid once restrictions have been lifted. Plans to carry out additional retrospective checks have been abolished.
Further landlord advice is expected from the government about checks which are carried out on or after 6th April 2022, although it has said there are plans to introduce a new digital solution whwith enhanced securitys, last updated on 31st August 2021 to reflect the end of free movement. A six-month grace period ended on 30th June 2021 and now, the same as other foreign nationals, determined by the new UK points-based immigration system.
The list of acceptable documents has therefore changed and an EEA passport or national identity card are no longer enough to prove a tenant or prospective tenant’s right to rent in the UK. They must prove that the Home Office has granted them:
Settled Status, which gives them a continuous right to rent, in the same way as someone with Indefinite Leave to Remain;
Pre-Settled Status, which gives them a time-limited right to rent. In this case, landlords must carry out a follow-up check, as advised by the Home Office online service.
Landlords do not need to carry out further Right to Rent checks on EEA or Swiss citizens who began a tenancy agreement on or before 30th June. Discover more landlord advice using the government’s online right to rent service.
Have Right to Rent checks changed for Irish citizens?
Tenants from the Republic of Ireland retain their right to rent in the UK and can prove their status as before, using their Irish passport, Irish passport card, Irish birth or adoption certificate along with another document from the approved list.
How has Brexit affected data protection regulations?
The UK may have left Europe butin May 2018 still apply, .
From a landlord’s point of view, tenants’ data – etc – must still only be collected for legitimate, strictly necessary reasons with their consent. It must be stored and processed securely and only for as long as it is required.
The UK now has the option to review the data protection framework and the Guardian has reported that the government plans to do just that.
Which rented propertie?
It became a requirement to have the electrical installation iney are safe for all new new tenancies from 1st June 2. Tenants should be given a copy of the reportnow required on rental properties every five years. This nd Licences to Occupy, including Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs)30,000. There is further landlord advice at Electrical Safety First’s website.
What does the new Fire Safety Act mean for owners of apartment blocks?
Landlords who own blocks of flats or apartments should take note of the new Fire Safety Act 2021 which received Royal Assent at the end of April and follows tragedies at Grenfell Tower and elsewhere.
The new Act makes duty holders and owners of residential buildings containing more than one home responsible for managing and reducing the risk of fires. The legislation has been expanded to cover the structure of the building, including cladding, walls, balconies, windows and individual entrance doors – and fire and rescue services can take enforcement action if building owners do not comply.
What does the Building Safety Bill mean for landlords and tenants?
A further response to the Grenfell Tower tragedy is the Building Safety Bill which is coming soon and will apply to high-rise residential buildings. Under the new laws, landlords must appoint a building safety manager for each building of at least 18 metres or seven storeys; deemed to be higher-risk buildings. This person building’s safety risks and obtaining a building assessment certificate.
The bill has implications for leaseholders, too; with reasonable notice they will be obliged to grant access to their dwelling to the landlord or the landlord’s agents to carry out safety work. Some leaseholders will also be requiredby the landlord in the form of a service charge.
The building safety manager will have a duty to listen to residents’ safety concerns. If residents feel they are being ignored, they can raise their concerns with the Building Safety Regulator, a new regulatory body with enforcement powers. Residents will be ablk up to 15 years after the property was built.
The bill is not likely to be passed until 2022 and the legislation is expected to be in place 12-18 months later.
What is the law on smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors for landlords?
The current rat must:
Install at least one smoke alarm every floor used as living accommodation in their rental properties;
Install a carbon monoxide (CO);
Ensu.
In Scotland, private landlords must provide a CO detector where there is a fixed combustion appliance such as a gas boiler or solid fuel stove, although not for gas cookers. Since February 2021, all homes in Scotland – not just rented – must have a working smoke alarm in living rooms, hallways and on landings, as well as heat alarms in kitchens and carbon monoxide detectors in rooms with wood burners or boilers.
Northern Ireland requires carbon monoxide alarmlled.
However, landlords in England and Wales can expect the rules to change a regulations to social landlords and requiring private and socialooms containing fixed combustion appliances of any fuel type, such as gas boilers. As a low-cost and easy solution to a potentially deadly problem, it is highly recommended that all landlords follow this guidance, regardless of whether it becomes law.
What EPC rating do rental properties need in 2021?
In 2021, and from April 2020, all rental propertiestunless they have a valid exemption. In most cases, civil penalty of up to £4,000.
Unless an exemption is registered, a residential or commercial property must not be let with an EPC rating of F or G and the landlord must improve the property’s rating to E or higher before entering into a new tenancy. If there are no plans to let the property, an exemption does not need to be registered.
Landlords are not currently expected to investand if a property cannot be brought up to EPC E within this budget, landlords should spend this amount on improvementsMEES regulations will be extended to all existing commercial leases in April 2023.
And the government wants to improve the energy efficiency of as many privately rented homes as possible in England and Wales even further. The Domestic Premises (Energy Performance Bill) will require most rented properties in the UK to achieve EPC C or above by 2025. The cap on landlords’ spending on improvements is likely to increase, too; the Committee on Fuel Poverty recommends a maximum of £15,000.
In Scotland,020 have been delayed by the pandemic. When these take effect, private rented properties will need an EPC rating of E or higher at the start of a new tenancy starts, with all tenancies eventually complying. In addition, the Scottish government is proposing that all residential properties will be required to achieve an EPC rating of at least C by 2040.
What are the new heat network regulations for landlords?
A small percentage of landlords operate unmetered heat networks and will be affected by changes to the20. They must re-register their heat networkby 27th November 2021 and repeat this every four years. A cost assessment must be performed and if a meter is required, these must be installed by 1st September 2022.
Has the eviction ban ended?
The ban on bailiff-enforced evictions, designed to protect tenants with rent arrears during the pandemic, has now ended across the UK.
In England and Wales, since 1st August 2021, the notice period for tenants with less than four months’ unpaid rent has been reduced to two months. For those with arrears of four months or more, the notice period is four weeks. In Scotland, longer notice periods are in place until 31st March 2022.
Although evictions are once again possible, the government is urging landlords to try to resolve matters with their tenants without going to court and is funding the pilot Rental Mediation Service (RMS) which is free for landlords and tenants to use.
It has also launched the The Debt Respite Scheme, or Breathing Spaces, in England and Wales to provide peoplincluding landlords, for up to 60 days. Those receiving mental health crisis treatment will have additional protection, with the breathing space lasting as long as the treatment, plus 30 days. This is similar to the Statutory Moratorium available in Scotland.
Is Section 21 being scrapped for no-fault evictions?
Under the Renters Reform Bille autumn, no-fault evictions and Section 21 of the Housing Act 1988 are likely to be scrapped. This is designed to provide greater security to tenants but has implications for landlords. Details are not yet clear but it is expected that landlords will still be able to retake y or a family member wishes to move into it, or they wish to sell it.
How does Making Tax Digital affect landlords?
The government is Making Tax Digital and will require businesses to keep digital accounts and send financial updates to HMRC electronically each quarteralready required to file quarterly digital accounts andhis amount will need to start following the Making Tax Digital rules from April 2022, although they can start earlier if they wish.
From 6th April 2023, Making Tax Digital is being rolled out to everyone, including landlords, who earns more than £10,000 a year from self-employment or property. For landlords that means rental income, not profit.
Landlords’ mortgage interest relief changes
If a tax return has not yet been filed for the year 2020-2021, landlords should be aware that this is the first full year where they cannot deduct mortgage interest expenses from rental income. Instead, landlords will receive a tax-Until the end of September 2021, the nil rate band for stamp duty land tax (SDLT) applies to properties up to £250,000, although second home buyers continue to pay the 3% surcharge. From 1st October 2021, standard stamp duty charges return, meaning SDLT is payable on all properties over £125,000, apart from for first-time buyers.
Stamp duty surcharge for overseas investors
In addition, new stamp duty charges came into effect for non-UK residents on 1st April 2021, requiring investors from overseas England and Northern Ireland. To be classed as a UK resident, the buyer must be live.
Is Capital Gains Tax (CGT) going to double?
There have been rumours of Capital Gains Tax (CGT) increases for many months and this is one of the reforms the government’s Office of Tax Simplification is considering as part of its Capital Gains Tax Review.
In its first report, published in November 2020, the Office of Tax Simplifies, which could potentially double Capital Gains Tax (CGT) liability for some, and significantly increase CGT for those selling properties.
Currently a basic rate taxpayer pays 20% standard income tax, which is considerably higher than the 10% CGT they pay on disposal of assets, and slightly higher than the 18% CGT due on property.
Higher rate taxpayers currently pay 40-45% income tax, double the standard Capital Gains Tax rate of 20%, and significantly higher than the 28% CGT rate on residential property.
Another change being considered is the extension of the 30-day deadline for filing a UK Property tax return after disposing of a residential property.
The review is still ongoing and this is definitely one to watch in 2022.
Do landlords need Client Money Protection?
This legislation affects landlords in England who use a letting or property management agent and became enforceable from April 2021. Landlords are not directly affected but all letting and property management agents who hold clients’ money must join a government-approved client money protection (CMP) scheme by law or face a fine of up to £30,000. The scheme protects tenants’ and landlords’ money – deposits, rental payments etc – t and ensures landlords and tenants can receive compensation if a letting agent cannot repay them.
For their own peace of mind, landlords should only use an agent with client money protection in place. It’s easy to find those which comply as they must display their certificate in their office and on their website; they can be fined up to £5,000 if they don’t display the certificate or provide it when asked.
How will Regulation of Property Agents affect landlords?
Regulation of Property Agents in England is still under consideration by the government with no date announced for its introduction, having been delayed by the pandemic. Among the recommendations include mandatory qualifications for property agents. Again this does not affect landlords directly but those using a letting agent are advised to be aware of the upcoming changes and check what steps their agent is taking to comply, such as working towards the necessary qualifications.
apply to Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs), plusority, which must be renewed every five years.
Further regulation is currently being considered, including:
The Supported Accommodation Bill and the , both of which aim to stamp out HMOs which masquerade as exempt and supported accommodation and are therefore unregulated. Both bills had their first reading in parliament in November 2020 and are still awaiting their second reading.
The Houses in Multiple Occupation Bill, which seeks to amend the law relating to HMO licensing, introducing larger minimum room sizes, preventing landlords from marketing non-compliant HMOs as bed and breakfast accommodation or AirBnBs and increasing penalties for contravention of licences.
Faster broadband for apartment blocks
Under a new law passed in March 2021, landlords of apartment blocks must now respond to requests from broadband providers for access to the property or risk court proceedings. Network operators require permission from the landowner to access the building to install, upgrade or maintain broadband provision and it was found that around 40% of requests were ignored, a problem which became more urgent in 2020 as many tenants struggled to work from home without adequate broadband provision.
What are lifetime deposits for renters?
The upcoming Renters Reform Bill recognises that tenants may struggle to save for a deposit on a new rental property before receiving the deposit back on their current home. Instead it proposes that tenants can transfer their security deposit to the next property, minus any deductions for repairs. More details of this bill are expected in the autumn.
Another aspect of the Renters Reform Bill is a proposal to make the government’s database of rogue landlords More details are expected in autumn 2021.

CEOs sleep out for homeless
24 Jun 2011 8:45 AM | Anonymous
The trio swapped their doonas and electric blankets for park benches and cardboard to support St Vinnies’ national CEO Sleepout which raises funds and awareness for the homeless.
Peter Smith (Adelaide City Council), Andrew Johnson (Port Pirie Regional Council), and Mark Searle (Marion Council) joined more than 80 other CEOs from South Australia on a damp cold night among the zoo’s more permanent inhabitants.
“There are more than 1000 homeless people in South Australia, most of who have been driven onto the streets by family breakdown, unemployment, drugs, alcohol and domestic violence,” Mr Smith said.
“It was a privilege to raise money for these people through a sponsored sleepout and also to listen to some of their stories on the night.
“t’s im’t easy.”
Presenter Theodora told a harrowing story of sexual abuse which forced her to leave home to live on Adelaide’s streets at 14.
Now married and working as a swimming instructor, she has beaten drug dependency and broken the poverty cycle where she was unable to access benefits because she was homeless, all thanks to the intervention of St Vinnies.
“Nobody is going to sleep well on a bit of cardboard or a bench,” Mr Johnson said.
Australia has more than 100,000 homeless people, 30 per cent of which are children.
This increasing engagement from organisational leaders is a step towards helping people get off the street, Mr Searle said.
“The more people become aware of the issue of homelessness and act to prevent it, the better for society as a whole,” Mr Searle said.

Until now, the scientists argue, the Global North has dominated African energy talks, viewing the continent as a homogeneous entity with similar energy needs and with basically non-existent energy policies. By examining the energy systems of some sample African countries, the authors show how wrong that assumption is. “Take neighbouring countries Burkina Faso and Ghana, for example,” says Sterl. “In Burkina Faso, access to electricity in rural areas is less than 5%. Here, hybrid systems with solar panels and diesel generators can be a cost-effective way to support development. On the other hand, Ghana has an extended centralised power grid with, among others, large hydropower plants and solar parks, which already supplies power to 90% of the population. What works for Burkina Faso may make much less sense for Ghana.”
bout African countries’ use of fossil fuels versus renewable energy. Leading African institutes and scientists have previously described the pressure by Western leaders on African countries not to use their fossil fuel reserves as “hypocrisy”. Meanwhile, many Western countries such as the UK have changed their views and called for the remaining fossil fuels to be unlocked anyway
“The current debate is characterised by unhelpful generalisations,” says Professor Youba Sokona, authora. The path to clean energy systems depends heavily on the specific conditions in each African country.”
“Sustainable alternatives are currently being worked hard on around the world, and they may forc’ time,” Sterl says. “For African countries, there is too little research on the consequences of starting up a fossil fuel economy. There are big risks involved, and who is going to bear those risks? Probably not the European leaders who are now knocking on Senegal’s door for natural gas.”
“W” says Dr Philipp Trotter of the universities of Wuppertal and Oxford, who also worked on the study.
“re is” says, “Tm.”
“COP27 will be an important climate summit for Africa,” says Sterl. “It is now vital to learn from African expertise. We need to move away from unfounded, romanticised visions, such as the idea that all of Africa could skip the era of centralised power grids. We hope this research will contribute to that process.”

JACKSON COUNTY — Cason the rise in Illinois. Our region is leading the state in this year’s confirmed cases. In 2011, Illinois had 51 confirmed at jumped to 151. Jackson County alone saw 23 cases last year. Health officials there believe this year’s numbers could reach that same level.
28 out of 33 cases of Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever statewide between April and June 2013 were in our region. “In Jackson County, we are leading the state in incidents,” said Brown. “We’ve had nine cases so far this year.” Behind Jackson County is Hardin County with six cases. Saline and Williamson Counties both had three cases. White, Hamilton, Massac, Union, Washington and Wayne Counties have also had confirmed cases.
“Everywhere from a one-year-old to an 81-year-old,” said Brown. “So no one is really exempt from this.” Brown also expects those case numbers to rise. “We’re still getting reports during the month of July and August,” said Brown.
Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever typically develops a couple days to a couple weeks after a bite from an infected tick. “What you see is a high fever,” said Brown. “Also some people will develop a rash, but not always.” Other symptoms include headache, nausea, and muscle pain. While there is a cure, seeing a doctor is crucial. “It can be a fatal disease if it’s untreated,” said Brown.
Tick-borne illnesses can also be prevented by wearing bug spray with DEET, covering up with clothes while outdoors, and staying out of tall brush. “Always check your body for ticks and remove them right away,” said Brown. Brown says the proper way to get rid of a tick is to use tweezers and pull it straight off the skin without twisting. She also recommends cleaning the bite so it doesn’t get infected.

In every Covenant series’ reviews I’ve mentioned that I don’t practically like Half-Blood…but who knows I become a huge fan of other four books? I’m glad that I’ve kept the habit of reading the entire series no matter how it goes, cause you can never guess what the authors are going to do next. goes of all time.
This book, as you might now know…is all about war. And you know what? I hate what Ares did to Alex. He is such an unpleasant guy!!!! No matter which book he’s in!!!! I’m absolutely not team Ares. Even Hades is better than Ares. Shocking huh? But it’s the truth. And he is so…gross. Why? What he did to Alex is unforgiveable. Something that affects her greatly. Oh! And since I mentioned the gods…many gods and goddess appeared in this book. Those you’ve read before, and those you didn’t. This is a battle for everyone, not just Alex and Aiden. And what do I like about Apollo? He really cares for Alex. Not just because he benefited a lot from her or Apollo was her great-great-great grandpa. (Although he denied to be called like that…since he appears in the age of twenty?) And he did keep his promise…even it was not the way she has in mind. But he did help them a lot. Still…Aiden and Alex wanted to put a bell on him, and most of the time he appeared…I laughed.
Theot only endless war and harm, but with the proper characters…the book is full of laughter as well. And most important of all? Don’t forget to prepare some tissue beside you…I keep crying at the end of the book. (Why do I keep crying at the end? Is Alex dead? Noo!!! She can’t be dead!!!) But those tears were for Aiden, Marcus, and Seth. (You have a bad feeling?)
why I ask you to read the book!)

How personal tragedy shaped company's mental health strategy
Friend and co-worker's suicide has driven construction firm's commitment to safety, says owner
“Everybody has to have a safe place,” says Ron Dahl. “Hopefully it’s at home, but sometimes it’s not. Work is the next place that you spend the most time in your life, so I wanted all the workers to have a safe place.”
“I had a friend and co-worker who died by suicide,” says Dahl. “This has been my drive for everything I do regarding mental health.
“I employ a lot of young people, and that has its own challenges. They also have their own challenges in today's world,” he says. “When I started with the safety program, one of the first elements we were dealing with was worker wellbeing and we chose to dive into mental health safety."
The virtual Celebration of Health and Safety took place last week, during which the winners were awarded prize money. Dahl chose to reinvest his in his company’s health and safety programs.
Construction is very much a performance-based industry – and one that is still largely male-dominated. For those already struggling, the environment may exacerbate issues such as anxiety or depression.
The environment is historically tough says Dahl, but it can’t be that way anymore:
“You just can’t treat people that way anymore. You can’t criticize people and tell them they did a terrible job, even if that’s the truth, because it affects people. There needs to be a positive message come out of every interaction.”
Dahl says that at his company, worker wellbeing is built into the company’s DNA:
“We just care about people every day and ask them how their day is going. I have an open-door policy and if you have a problem, you can come and talk to me or anyone else in the company that you’re comfortable speaking with.”
If an employee is struggling, Dahl says that they try to accommodate their workday, “we can either help you get to the finish line that day, or we can modify your day to help reduce stress or anxiety.”
“Workplace safety is generally nine to five,” says Dahl. “Throughout the workday safety officers try to ensure that employees are not getting injured, and get home safely at the end of the day.”
“Well, it doesn’t work that way with mental health; mental health is a 24/7 gig,” he says.
He says that he is especially mindful of his younger employees who often blur the lines between work and home life: “They don’t know when to turn the clock off and turn the clock on. Employers need to be cognizant of that because sometimes, that lifestyle is not sustainable and employees never get a chance to rest and heal.”
Dahl says that they have built a relaxed atmosphere at the company which, he says, is the only way to really support employee mental health: “We’ve created an atmosphere where people actually care about each other.”
And these efforts have also had a positive effect on physical safety, because truly caring about your employees and co-workers creates a virtuous circle which benefits every aspect of safety.

By now you probably know that I absolutely adore Yves Rocher fragrances. You could get the hint from the article here, here, here, and here, too. Sometimes I wish I had a massive collection of high end perfumes, but you know what – why would I spend £90 on 1 perfume which might bore me after a few months when I can have 9 of them for the same price and swap them around depending on my mood! That makes so much more sense, doesn’t it? Now let me show you my 3 new fragrances from Yves Rocher which are definitely worth trying!
I’ve already done a brief review of Vanille Noire here, but I still feel like I haven’t done the perfume enough justice. The scent of this fragrance is along the lines of dark and serious but with a hint of sweet and attractive. The way this scent is architected reminds me of Beyonce fragrances but the actual scent itself is much more classier and luxurious. Sweet vanilla and dark woodiness in a very non offensive manner which is sometimes so hard to achieve with vanilla perfumes, isn’t it.
This fragrance smells like an epitome of spring. Imagine lying in a field full of lilies of the valley, the air is crisp and sharp in your lungs. The notes in this are green, bright and fresh. An extremely feminine scent, I’ve also heard people describe this as very natural for women – which I think is spot on!
The newest addition to my Yves Rocher fragrance collection – Quelques Notes d’Amour (any French students here? how do you even pronounce this?). This is quite different from my usual scents (I like clear scents which I can easily put my finger on – rose, lily of the valley, vanilla. This fragrance is a complex mix of all different scents. What I can smell is a spicy rose with a lot of patchouli and warmth. It’s a very sensual yet spring toned scent which is a rare combination I think as spring scents tend to be much more on the fresh side of the fragrance spectrum.

Welcome to Razorthorn
The Art of Digital War
Sun Tzu, The Art Of war, 5th Century BC
There are few books in history that are still considered to be as valuable today as when they were written and “The Art of War” is one of them. Written in 5th Century BC, it is still considered today to be essential reading in many fields, including business. It has been quoted in a ton of movies, books and media more times than you can probably countmanuscript and have studied it numerous times both for my work in the field of information security and for my own medieval battle interests outside of my working life. It is an excellent read and I’d recommend getting yourself a copy as soon as you can.
I was interviewing Richard Cassidy from Exabeam for the Razorwire channel the other day and he mentioned during the interview that we are fighting a never ending digital battle, us information security people, IT people and business people, against the malicious actors looking to compromise systems and networks for their own gain. He was absolutely correct and after some thinking, this article was born.
Since the internet became widely available back in the 90s, we have been seeing an ever-increasing demand for technological advancement. Many of the systems and services that we rely on today are all connected to networks, which are connected to other networks and so on and so forth until you reach the internet. Applications and software run everything. The last 25 years have seen more advancement in technologyd the rate of development and advancement is increasing and getting faster and more efficient every year. It is a fantastic time to be alive.
But for all the huge benefits we have in today’s world, we are totally reliant on that same technology to run our lives, our businesses and our governmental institutions. It’s hard to remember a world where information was not instantly available, or services available at our fingertips. Whilst this provides us the comfort to concentrate on other matters to previous generations, it has led to a level of reliance that means if that same access to technology gets taken away, in whole or in part for any length of time, there would be serious social, mental and real-world implications. All our financial and critical infrastructure now runs digitally in some form or another – it has made us both strong and weak as a species.
Information security people have for a long time now been working as hard as possible to secure infrastructure, systems and services from being compromised or rendered unavailable due to some form of software error or outage. Us old timers call this the AIC Triad, which stands for Availability, Integrity and Confidentiality. In the early days, we spent a lot more time securing against software outages, downed comms links and similar such issues. IT back then was very much a young discipline and innovation in that space was based around the development of better, more efficient systems and redundancy to ensure critical systems and services remained available. There was a lot of innovation in moving the older paper-based systems over to fully digital versions that were built to be able to evolve and change as well as be refined as required.
Then we started moving to ecommerce over traditional high street shopping. And with that, the world of information security changed forever.
As is historically proven time and time again, once a system is in place to take payment for services, or a system for the movement of money is created, or anything to do with money is put in place, shortly after you will get the criminals sniffing around. And with the rapid rise in popularity of internet shopping, more and more followed. Today, cyber crimon the planet, eclipsing even the global drugs trade in profitability.
Thus we hit where we are today, after that brief history lesson. 20 – 25 years ago we were worried about a virus causing havoc, or a system falling over etc. Today, we are worried about ransomware, data loss, credit card theft, cryptocurrency theft, etc. The list grows each day. As I have mentioned in my video blogs, there is currently the seriously disturbing trend towards compromising key service providers and software solution providers from alleged state sponsored hackers who are targeting these institutions to introduce backdoors and malicious code into their software, which, when installed onto their customer systems, provide access for those malicious groups to undertake covert operations.
Information security professionals are in great demand at the moment. Malicious activ and it has caused many a board of directors and shareholders of organisations of all sizes serious concern about whether they will be the next targets. But for every information security professional trying to protect an organisation, there is another trying to find new ways to compromise everything the information security professional is trying to protect. In essence, this is a huge digital battle raging on the internet that you only really see when one or more of the malicious groups compromise the systems of an organisation and the news gets out. Unfortunately, you rarely hear about breaches if there is the possibility of a coverup. The difficulty in this never ending battleually underfunded and the malicious actors can make a lot of money and thus are in essence overfunded. Other than what these individuals or groups take for themselves, they usually plough the remainder into increasing their ill-gotten yields.
There is a whole Dark Web cyber criminal community where they sell their gains as well as access to systems, malicious code, targeted attacks, vulnerabilities and all kinds of supporting services and technologies. This cyber criminal ecosystem mirrors that of the ethical system in reverse. There are coders paid to create malicious software, there are initial access brokers selling access to systems, there are hackers for hire and many, many other services that can be procured for those with the right contacts, the right money and the right determination.
The unfortunate truth is that cyber crime is never going to go away. Cyber attacks and state sponsored attacks are going to get more and more widespread as time goes by. We are constantly having to adjust and change our defensive tactics to keep up with our counterparts in the darker side of cyber security because if we don’t, the average cost of cyber crime per year will rise even faster than it is now. It is a real balancing act – by keeping the cyber criminals on their toes, we are keeping the rate of cyber crime damages increasing at a lower rate, yet they are keeping us information security people on our toes by coming up with ways to circumvent the security countermeasures we put in place… it’s an endless dance that is never going to change.
This is a war that can never be won and will only ever continue.
Organisations, both public and private, will have to rethink security in order to efficiently and effectively maintain a semblance of balance. Security can no longer be the bolt on at the end of the process, it needs to be carefully baked into the beginning, the middle and the end of every part of an organisation’s DNA. An organisation needs to have a baseline for basic security, then build levels of defence in depth on top in the form of policies, processes, standards and awareness training. Software developers need to undertake secure coding and strict DevSecOps along with security testing of code and products. IT professionals need to secure infrastructure, perimeters and ensure adequate testing of all infrastructure, and information security teams need to carefully manage and support the business with governance, risk and compliance to pull it all together in a way that provides consistent, effective and evolving security and risk management as the organisation itself evolves and changes.
There are so many components to information security in today’s world that it’s hard to list them. The list I just mentioned is in no way complete and hardly does it justice, but it’s a good base to start from, I could spend several days talking about cyber security and tooling alone, let alone security governance, risk management and incident response, but I don’t think I have quite that much time.
Trust me, there is a lot to go over.
To conclude, let’s revisit the quote I used at the beginningn industry is the limited knowledge we have of both ourselves and of the enemy, hence why we are stopping some attacks, but falling foul of others. We have a good knowledge of low to mid-level attacks, as well as the types of malicious software the lower end of the cyber criminal spectrum use. We put countermeasures in place to deal with these and they are pretty effective.
However, we have very little knowledge of the malicious actors higher on the spectrum, especially in the state sponsored side. It is a fact that governmental security institutions have been reported to have backdoors and knowledge of vulnerabilities in key technologies that they can use to compromise systems, and with all the reports of “state sponsored hackers” actively attacking key organisations, we are starting to see an evolution of the battle entering into a new level.
We need to take a step back and re-evaluate the battlefield and the defensive methodologies we are using to protect our organisations and institutions. It is apparent that protecting our organisations is down to us alone, as our own government’s state sponsored teams are more concerned with waging their own cyber wars, with little regard for protecting commercial concerns, who are being left to defend themselves. This is never going to change, so we need to spend more time talking as a community, helping one another out, advising one another and pooling our resources so that we can mount a collective defence posture that can protect our commercial institutions from this ongoing war.
This all sounds very grandiose, I fully appreciate that. But I firmly believe the information security industry needs to carefully return to the basics and rebuild for a modern information security world, rather than returning to the same old systems that quite frankly are very hit and miss at the best of times. If you don’t believe me, just look at the last 2 years’ worth of attacks and do the research.
It is time for us to get to know ourselves and re-evaluate our situation and research and re-review our enemy and their goals.

Lower compensation claims and absence of tax-related charges boosted profitability at Canadian insurers in 2018, despite market challenges chipping away at their returns from investments. On February 13th Manulife Financial Corp reported a net attributable profit that more than doubled to C$4.8bn (US$3.6bn) for the 12 months ended December 31st. The same day, its rival Sun Life Financial Inc posted a 17% rise in net profit to C$2.5bn.
Manulife Financial's total contract benefits and expense payments dropped by 40% year on year to C$33.5bn, while net benefits and claims plunged by 60% to C$15.9bn in 2018. Meanwhile, Sun Life's total expense and benefits payments fell by 12%, as claims on insurance contracts nosedived to C$312m. The insurers' resilient grip on expenses and costs helped guard their profitability despite revenue declines during the year.
Interest rate volatility hurt returns from Manulife's bonds and fixed income derivative instruments, forcing the insurer to record an unrealised loss of C$9bn in 2018. This led to a 77% decline in net investment income to C$4.5bn. Net premiums earned during the year fell by 15% to C$24bn compared with the previous-year period. Consequently, Manulife's total revenue fell by 33% to C$39bn in 2018.
Sun Life marked an 8% fall in total revenue to C$27bn for the 12-month period. The insurer's investment income fell by more than 70% to C$2.4bn, as foreign-exchange fluctuations weighed on its investment portfolio. This more than offset a 2% rise in fee income and a 22% rise in net premiums earned from its insurance business.

Whelan attacked the “underlying deceit” with “employers entering into a contract that allows someone else to dictate what we would be paid, what our terms and conditions would be”. Whelan said “I believe the employers that we work for are being quite disingenuous and dishonourable…
Whelan added “we will not engage in a race to the bottom” while Dempsey highlighted the Tory government’s increasing authoritarianism and efforts in “criminalising dissent” as workers fight back amid a deepening cost of living crisis. In response to the Tories’ legislation to allow employers to use agency workers to break strikes, Whelan said, “as for the scab charter you’ve created or the government has created recently – that’s what it’ll be…scab labour can only work for scab management and what it’ll do is it’ll impact and destroy the industrial relations in this industry going forward…

INDIANA – Crews installing a new gas line for Citizens Energy Group plan to close the center lanes of Southport Road near State Road 37. The lane closures are expected to last about two weeks starting after 7 p.m. tonight, August 3rd.
The future I-69 interchange at County Line Road opened partially overnight. County Line Road has reopened to through traffic underneath S.R. 37 between two roundabouts.
The roundabout west of S.R. 37 now provides full access to the southbound entrance and exit ramps and the Bluffdale Drive frontage road. A temporary exit ramp also opened, providing access from northbound S.R. 37 to County Line Road. This temporary ramp and Bluff Road connect with the new County Line Road roundabout east of S.R. 37.
The northbound S.R. 37 exit ramp begins just past the bridge over County Line Road and the ramp has an advisory speed limit of 25 mph. Drivers should stay alert and exercise caution as other vehicles adjust to the traffic patterns.

The following explanatory notes on the earliest places of worship in Darwen and Blackburn are taken from the Lancashire County Record Office handbook "Finding Folk". Tony Foster has created a database of Blackburn and Darwen records and has kindly abstracted the Thornber entries for me. The periods covered for the oldest churches and chapels are noted in the following section.
I have been contacted by Frank Elliott who is descended from this couple, through their son George Almond who married Betty Hacking. They had a son George who married Betty Lomax and they too had a son, Georg Almond who married Lydia Chadwick. This couple were Frank's great grandparents.
Darwen Pole Street has baptisms from 1750 which are indexed in the IGI. Tony Foster's index of baptisms covers 1792-1837.
Blackburn Chapel Street Independent has baptism records from 1777 and these are indexed in the IGI up to 1837. Tony Foster's index of baptisms covers 1777-1837.
The Blackburn, Islington, Particular Baptists' records run from 1772 and have been indexed in the IGI from 1796St James, Over Darwen, has a baptism register from 1781 but the Bishop' transcripts start in 1723. The records have not been indexed in the IGI. The other churches in Darwen started in the 19th century. Tony Foster's database covers two sections for baptisms: 1723-1770 and 1813-1826.
Blackburn Parish Church, St Mary the Virgin, is now the cathedral. The records go back to 1569. IGI coverage is MISSING or FAULTY from 1681 to 1834 for baptisms and also from 1706-1785 for marriages. Merle Thornber has abstracted Thornber baptisms, marriages and burials for the period from 1711 to 1789 from Mormon Microfiche 1656594, from 1790 to 1814 from the Bishop's transcripts on Mormon Microfiche 1656729, and burials from 1813 to 1843 from Mormon Microfiche 1278820. Merle has also studied Index to the Register of Baptisms, in the Parish Church of Blackburn from AD 1568 to 1782 and the Chapel of St. James, Over Darwen from AD 1723 to 1729 belonging to Rev. J. Rushton, DD, Vicar of Blackburn, 30 September 1861. (Item 9 LDS #1278821)
Blackburn St. John the Evangelist is the second oldest church in Blackburn with baptism records from 1789. They have not been indexed in the IGI.
Blackburn St Pauls was built in 1791 but the vicar of Blackburn refused to certify it for consecration. The trustees placed it under the Countess of Huntingdon's Connection (Nonconformist). On 20th December 1829 the Church was consecrated by the Vicar of Blackburn. Baptism records commence in 1792 and have been indexed in the IGI. Merle Thornber has checked the original records for Thornber baptisms and burials from 1810 to 1823 using Mormon Microfiche 1470928.

And as they are extremely popular and are in demand for the professionals as well as the homeowners, you can easily find tons of options in the market while searching for an ideal portable planer.
However, if you are looking for the best, then there are a few products that you can blindly rely on. One such excellent portable planer that I preferred for my DIY projects is Bosch Bare Tool PLH181B. This compact and really durable product from Bosch is undoubtedly one of the best cordless planers out in the market.
If you were looking to buy a highly reliable and efficient hand planer that has better performance and value than most of the other similar products, you should once try Bosch Bare Tool PLH181B. In this article, I’ll be talking more about the Bosch Bare Tool PLH181B why I loved it and chosen this for my occasional DIYs. So, if you are confused about choosing the compact planer, you should stay with me until the end of the article. By doing so, you will be able to find whether you should buy this planer or not.
Who Should use the product?
First, let’s talk about the category of buyers the Bosch Bare Tool PLH181B targets. But to know this, it is essential to understand the design and build of the planer.

The first thing that I loved the most about Bosch Bare Tool PLH181B is its cordless operation. Planers, especially the compact ones are tough to handle if they are attached to a cord. The cord not only restricts the overall usability of the planer. And this is perfectly treated by the company by providing Bosch Bare Tool PLH181B a cordless operation.
The perfect functionality of Bosch Bare Tool PLH181B makes it one of the most perfect and easy to use compact hand planers available in the market. Also, the cordless operation makes it one of the easiest to carry and hold planers available in the price range.

JBR – The Stayers’ Hurdle
Jessica Harrington knocked in a trio of winners at last year's festival and Supasundae is the shortest price of her entries this time around, heading the Stayers' Hurdle market at a best-priced 9/2. The son of Galileo has already shown a liking for Cheltenham, landing the Coral Cup twelve months ago before finishing runner-up to Yanworth over three-miles (first attempt) in the Grade 1 Liverpool Hurdle on his final start of last season. He has maintained that level of form this year, improving for a comeback run at Fairyhouse to push Apple's Jade close in the Leopardstown Christmas Hurdle and for some time it looked like he would hold outstay Gordon Elliott's mare, only to be nabbed near the line after trading as low as 1/25 in-running.
Sam Spinner is the horse who seems to have captured the imagination of most racing fans, being from a smaller stable and costing his current connections next to nothing in the grand scheme of things (£12k!). They have turned down some fancy offers for the 6-year-old ever since he made all of the running to winand that was an even more eye-catching performance when you take into account that he only won a handicap off 139 on his previous start; albeit that was a big-field, competitive Haydock contest in which he bolted up by 17-lengths. It marks him down as a major improver and who's to say there's not more to emerge from the locker yet.
My main worry would be his lack of any Cheltenham experience. Some analysts have used the argument that he has won at Catterick as evidence that he could act here but it's going to be a completely different ballgame tackling animals who aren't glorified trees in the context of a proper Grade 1. It doesn't really wash with me and I think the opposition will be out to ensure that he won't be cruising along at the head of affairs for as long as he proved capable of doing at Ascot last time. It's also going to be nearly three months since that outing and quite whether he will have the same sharpness could be up for debate, for all that I'm clutching at straws a bit! Anyway, it's a price thing for me and 5/1 doesn't do the trick.
Last year's ultimately disappointing Champion Hurdle favourite, Yanworth, is an interesting addition to the race as he now switches back to tackle hurdles after all four of this season's runs came over fences. He hasn't exactly looked a natural there, even falling in one of his spins at Exeter, and it's no surprise that connections have changed tack to go for more top-level glory rather than running in a handicap chase. Indeed, this was the race he should have run in last year (even though I convinced myself he could win the Champion Hurdle; no more about that) and his following one-length defeat of Supasundae at Aintree (three-miles) shows the he is entitled to be deemed a major contender at his fourth Cheltenham Festival.
I suppopossible issues this time around, however, as he hasn't jumped a hurdle on a racecourse for nearly a year and after giving plenty of air to any number of fencsmaller obstacles again. It probably won't be a huge issue and if he was a 10/1 poke you might say "yeah, I'll give it a shot" but he's half that and three-miles around here is going to be much more stamina sapping than what he faced at Aintree, his sole start at the trip. I've had a strange liking for the horse for the longest time and don't think he has been campaigned at all well by connections, but even though he has finally ended up where he belongs, it's not in the best circumstances and a watching brief is all I shall take given the current quotes on offer.
Penhill is the final runner at single figures and there has been talk on the preview circuit that he could be punted on the day by owner Tony Bloom, a man who is prone to smashing up a market or two! The evidence for this horse's claims are there for all to see as he won the Albert Bartlett last year and did so in the style of one with further scope to improve at the trip (only his second start over it having been campaigned at two-miles), although subsequently couldn't back that performance up at Punchestown when giving the well-ridden Champagne Classic a costly first run. We haven't got to see Penhill on the track since and whilst untapped potential remains, it's a hell of an ask to win this first time out after nearly a year away. A good run here and he'll be on many a radar for Punchestown, but he's not on mine for next week's race.
The beaten favourite in the 2017 renewal of this race was Unowhatimeanharry and he has got work to do with Sam Spinner having finished eleven-lengths behind that rival in the Long Walk. It wasn't a terrible run by any means and he is a solid 160-ish performer (who has been overrated for the longest time!), but simply doesn't look like the same horse this season. Why that is the case isn't easy to be definite about but after joining Harry Fry as a near 8-year-old in 2015, he improved out of all recognition from a mark of 123 to 167 a year later and what goes up must come down! Age is probably playing a part too as he's now 10 and unless he has thrived in the few months since his last outing, it's hard to envisage anything more than a place coming his way, if even that. I'm very much against and will be super surprised if he wins.
L'Ami Serge is the sort of horse you look at and write off because, lets face it, he's a bit of a dog. When the taps are turned on, he can go from cruising to seemingly downing tools and many a punter, myself included, have been bitten. However, he has had wind issues in times gone by and it's possible that some of the blotting of his copybook could be as a result of those problems, so I'm more forgiving than most. The overall feel I get is that he's definitely overpriced at 12/1 to emerge with another Grade 1 success, with his best run this season coming when second to Sam Spinner at Ascot and if you stopped the race coming down to the final flight, the picture being painted was one of the Nicky Henderson trained gelding cantering all over the eventual winner, who got a mighty jump when it was most needed and wouldn't give in on the flat.
That form might be viewed as being a perfect example of L'Ami Serge's limitations, once that was also showing all that is good and bad when it comes to his attributes, but like many of these he is somewhat unexposed as a three-miler and I do have my theories about what is needed in order to see him thrive. His previous form at Cheltenham is good as well and he ran a huge race in the County Hurdle (two-miles and a furlong) off 152 last year when narrowly touched off by Arctic Fire, in which he was predictably never stronger than when they were motoring up the hill. Patient tactics will no doubt be deployed once again and I really do see him running huge here, at worst getting another place and trading low mid-race. The quirks are undeniable but so too is his talent and in this field he's no bigger than a 7's or 8's poke. Woof.

How to love when we fail to love oneself? How to give and receive what we claim we don’t have?
Love is always there we just need to allow ourselves to receive, and often the barriers to love whether within or outside, is our own inner limitation and self-judgmentsrning y'all! Did everyone have a good weekend? We ended up taking a real "weekend" day on Saturday. We relaxed, didn't make plans, went out to lunch, {some of us napped, not me} and just plain took it easy. We all need those days and I can tell you ours are few and far between. We squeeze in projects and work all weekend and save the relaxing for after dinner. It's the way we function and we love it {for the most part!} so it works. I love being busy!
Sunday however, I woke up and was straight to work. I knew the house was due to be cleaned, which could have waited, but I also wanted to tidy up each room in the house. We usually splurge on the house being thoroughly cleaned about every three weeks, but since I wanted to work on each room it just made sense that I cleaned instead this time around. I'm so glad I did, because I really spent a lot of time making sure things got cleaned that I had noticed had been forgotten about with the cleaning service. No matter how good they are, things get forgotten. I ended up rearranging the living room, did a good bit of rearranging in the dining room, purged toys, scrubbed the bathrooms and totally cleaned up the kitchen and mud room counters. Feels SO good. I love some Spring cleaning! We also had a cold snap this weekend, which sort of forced us into one last weekend of being indoors before we march towards Spring. Really, it was needed, and I feel better about starting new projects with having the house tidied and freshened up.
We have a super busy month ahead {can you believe it's almost April!?} so we really needed this weekend at home. Hope you had a great weekend! </s> When installing a home theatre, homeowner’s often want to recreate a theatre atmosphere. Lighting offers one means of achieving this goal, and provides one of the details that enhance the theater experience. A remote-controlled lighting system, which includes dimmer switches, can provide the same theater effect
Lighting arrangement offers numerous options, although a number of people prefer recessed lights in rows for a modern authentic atmosphere. With a little thought to how the theater room will be used, the ideal lighting setup can be created. Have a plan ready before calling an electrician to expedite the wiring for a home theater.
For example, if a home theatre doubles up as an entertainment room complete with a bar, restaurant style tables, and a pool table, consider lighting function and arrangement for this section of the entertainment roomintensity affects the comfort of the home theater. Bright lighting will ruin the theatre effect, while soft, even lighting without glare or extreme contrasts is both comfortable, and promotes the atmosphere of a theater. Furthermore, ensure the television isn’t excessively bright. A bright TV can be uncomfortable on the eyes of viewers, and can be avoided by reducing the contrast. Experiment with the TV, until you find the ideal balance for the desired comfort level.
Lighting, wiring, and projectors require special consideration in a home theater. In addition, when building a new home, and you intend to install a home theater on down the road, it’s best to have the wiring required for a theater installed during construction. It’s more cost effective to install electrical components before the walls than retrofitting down the road. Planning the layout of the theater room now, enables the electrician to provide the required services, so it will be ready when you areL

Cats at risk from over-the-counter flea products intended for dogs
Hundreds needing treatment after being exposed to chemical permethrin
Sharing a bed with or even licking a dog who's been treated for fleas could be enough to leave a cat seriously ill, emergency vets have warned.
Vets Now sees scores of cats every month who have been exposed to dog flea medication containing permethrin, with cases spiralling in spring and summer when fleas are at their worst.
In some cases, they were poisoned after coming into contact with a dog who'd recently been treated.
Permethrin is found in many "spot-on" flea medications for dogs but is highly toxic to cats.
Click to watch our video on the dangers of permethrin to cats
She said: "I accidentally muddled up an over-the-counter flea product for dogs and put it on my six-year-old cat who had a fit, started foaming at the mouth and staggering around as the chemical attacked her nervous system.
"The prompt action of the vet and the honesty with which she explained what was happening was exceptional.
"We were in a very tearful state, but nothing was too much to ask. My own vet said the emergency vet's actions and treatment saved Jess's life.
"We'd like to warn all pet ownersr."
Can I give my cat paracetamol and other human painkillers? Go
13 dangers cat owners need to be aware of this summer Go
Flea facts
Fleas are at their worst in spring and summer, and milder winters in recent years have seen their population explode
There are more than 2000 species of flea
Fleas can jump up to 160 times their own length
Fleas take 18 days to mature into adults
The average flea lays around 500 eggs
A single flea can bite a pet or a person up to 400 times a day
Most fleas live in soft furnishings and carpets
Permethrin is an insecticide that's found in flea and head lice treatments, ant killers and fly sprays.
Some pet health care brands have since removed flea products containing permethrin from sale in supermarkets.
Dave Leicester, Vets Now's head of clinical intelligence, said: "Permethrin
"Caem, .
"The effects of poisoning are usually rapid in onset, including drooling, tremors, twitching and seizures. Always contact your local vet immediately if you think your cat may have been poisoned.
Vets are also calling on owners of dogs and cats in shared households to avoid using products containing permethrin.
If they are unsure they should keep their cats and dogs apart for 72 hours after they have been de-flead.

Brr Financing Question
Assuming the above is true, how are investors able to get a house, rehab it and refi it so quickly? Are they buying with cash first then leveraging deffered financing? (ive heard there can be weird HUD rules with this that can prevent you from getting market value, but I could be wrong) Are they using short term loans with higher rates for a few months then flipping over to conventional?
I am in a situation where I have the capital for 20% down and rehab costs, but i'm not able to buy the house for cash too yet.
Lender from Lenexa, KS
There are private lenders that will refinance investment property without any seasoning. The property must be rented but other than that there is no seasoning requirement. Local banks and Fannie / Freddie have their many hoops to jump through but they are not the only game in town.
@Evan Shuey You could do a fix n flip loan for the purchase/rehab using 10% downpayment on total costs (purchase price + rehab budget). This loan will finance 90% of the purchase and rehab, so you don't have as much money tied up. At 90 days you can refinance up to 75LTV of new appraised value into a long term (30 year) loan assuming rehab is complete and property rental ready.
Thanks folks. This is very helpful.
Is the 90 days just a min time limit for the loan issuer to make it worth their while?

Arabs Must Throw Off Their Shackles
It is of the utmost importance that we recall that, despite their many divisions and disputes, the Arabs are in fact a people not a collection of random countries passively available for outside intervention and rule.
The basic premise of Arab nationalism in the broad sense is that, with all their diversity and pluralism of substance and style, the people whose language and culture are Arab and Muslim constitute a nation and not just a collection of states scattered between North Africa and the western boundaries of Iran.
Just as the French, British, Israeli and American campaign against Abdel Nasser was designed to bring down a movement that openly stated as its ambition the unification of the Arabs into a very powerful independent political force, the American goal today is to redraw the map of the Arab world to suit American, and not Arab, interests.
American policy thrives on Arab fragmentation, collective inaction, and military and economic weakness.
I want to state categorically that, since the early 20th century, the Arabs have never been able to achieve their collective independence as a whole or in part exactly because of the designs on the strategic and cultural importance of their lands by outside powers.
Today, no Arab state is free to dispose of its resources as it wishes, nor to take positions that represent that individual states interests, especially if those interests seem to threaten U.S. policies. In the more than 50 years since America assumed world dominance, and more so after the end of the Cold War, it has run its Middle Eastern policy based on two principles, and two principles alone: the defense of Israel and the free flow of Arab oil, both of which involved direct opposition to Arab nationalism.
In all significant ways, with few exceptions, American policy has been contemptuous of and openly hostile to the aspirations of the Arab people. Since Nassers demise it has had few challengers among the Arab rulers who have gone along with everything required of them.
During periods of the most extreme pressure on one or other of them, neither their enormous collective economic power nor the will of their people has moved the Arab states to even the slightest gesture of defiance. The imperial policy of divide and rule has reigned supreme, since each government seems to fear the possibility that it might damage its bilateral relationship with America. Indeed, it is remarkable that the Arab countries have fought each other far more readily than they have the real aggressors outside.
The result today, after the invasion of Iraq, is an Arab nation that is badly demoralized, crushed and beaten down, less able to do anything except acquiesce in announced American plans to gesture and posture in all sorts of efforts to re-draw the Middle East map to suit American and Israeli interests. Even that extraordinarily grandiose scheme has yet to receive the vaguest collective answer from the Arab states.
How does it feel for a Palestinian to watch a second-rank leader like Abu Mazen, who has always been Arafats faithful subordinate, embrace the Americans when it is clear to the youngest child that the road map is designed (a) to stimulate a Palestinian civil war and (b) to gain Palestinian compliance with Israeli-American demands for reform in return for nothing much at all.
And as for American plans in Iraq, it is now absolutely clear that what is going to happen is nothing less than an old-fashioned colonial occupation rather like Israels since 1967. The idea of bringing in American-style democracy to Iraq means aligning the country with U.S. policy, that is, a peace treaty with Israel, oil markets for American profit, and civil order kept to a minimum that neither permits real opposition nor real institution building.
The seeming powerlessness of the Arabs in the face of all this is what is so discouraging, and not only because no real effort has been expended on fashioning a collective response to it.
To someone who reflects on the situation from the outside as I do, I find it amazing that in this moment of crisis, there has been no evidence of any sort of appeal from the rulers to their people for support in what needs to be seen as a collective national threat.
American military planners have made no secret of the fact that what they plan is radical change for the Arab world, a change that they can impose by force of arms because there is little that opposes them. Moreover, the idea behind the effort seems to be nothing less than the destruction of the underlying unity of the Arab people once and for all, changing their lives and aspirations forever.
To such a display of power I would have thought that an unprecedented alliance between Arab rulers and people represented the only possible deterrent. But that, clearly, would require an undertaking by every Arab government to open its society to its people, bring them in, so to speak, remove all repressive security measures in order to provide an organized opposition to the new imperialism. A people coerced into war, or a people silenced and repressed, will never rise to such an occasion. ? might mention here that when I read last years United Nations Human Development Report on the Arab World, I was struck by how little appreciation there was in it of imperialist intervention in the Arab world, and how deep and long-standing its effect has been.
I certainly donouldntne?
Let me return to my main point: consider how much more effective today the Palestinian position might have been under the US-Israeli onslaught had there been a common show of unity instead of an unseemly scramble for positions on the delegation to see Colin Powell.
I have not understood over the years why it is that Palestinian leaders have been unable to develop a common unified strategy for opposing the occupation and not getting diverted into one or another Mitchell, Tenet, or Quartet plan.
The root problem everywhere, and not just in Palestine, is the fundamental rift between ruler and ruled that is one of the distorted offshoots of imperialism. There is a basic fear of democratic participation, as if too much freedom might lose the governing colonial elite some favor with the imperial authority. The result, of course, is not only the absence of real mobilization of everyone in the common struggle, but the perpetuation of fragmentation and petty factionalism. As things now stand, there are too many uninvolved, non-participating Arab citizens in the world today.
Whether they want to or not, the Arab people today face a wholesale attack on their future by an imperial power, America, that acts in concert with Israel, to pacify, subdue, and finally reduce us to a bunch of warring fiefdoms whose first loyalty is to the great superpower (and its local surrogate). Not to understand that this is the conflict that will shape our area for decades is willingly to blind onesself.
What is needed is a breaking of the iron bands that tie Arab societies into sullen knots of disaffected people, insecure leaders and alienated intellectuals. This is an unprecedented crisis. Unprecedented means are therefore required to confront it.
The first step is to realize the scope of the problem, and then go on to overcome that which reduces us to helpless rage and marginalized reaction. The alternative to such an unattractive condition promises a great deal more hope.

Are you brave enough to search for and live out your life’s purpose? If so, use these tips as a guide to find your life’s personal calling:
6. Listen to your inner voice. What’s that tiny voice inside of you telling what you to do? Have you been ignoring it? Don’t do that! That voice inside your head is your compass. It was designed to help you navigate life and keep you on the path to your own personal greatness. It’s high time you started listening to it.
8.Invest in yourself. This may mean reading more books on empowerment, conducting a thorough self inventory, or simply giving yourself more time for introspective thinking. Whatever the case, make sure that you’re putting time and energy in y-o-u! You’ll be glad you did.
10. Be open minded. As strange as it may sound, you may find out that your purpose and gift is best used in an area you wouldn’t normally gravitate to. Sometimes we get caught up in things like professional titles and things that at the end of the day don’t mean much. Part of the reason we fight for those things is because we all want to be recognized and appreciated and validated for who we are. If you’ll allow yourself the opportunity to open yourself up to new experiences and new opportunities you may find out that the validation and appreciation you seek is right there.
Simply put, your life’s purpose is certainly worth the journey of exploration, so why not give it your best shot? </s> Parks Canada

MySQL is a database management system based on SQL. like other relational databases, MySQL stores data in tables made up of rows and columns.
If you are doing backend web development, sooner or later you would need to have MySQL installed on your laptop for your dev environment
So in this post, we will be taking a look at how to install MySQL on macOS.
Installing MySQL is fairly easy thanks to Homebrew. Just type in the following command:
It may take a while for it to install.
After it's installed, you need to start the MySQL server by using this command:
After starting it, you need to secure the server. By default it comes without a root password, so you will need to make sure it's protected. In order to secure the server, run:
This procedure may take a while, but it gives a lot of power to make sure you get the best defaults out of the box.
Starting And Stopping MySQL
Because we ran brew services start mysql to start MySQL, our mac will restart it at reboot. We can stop this from happening by using:
brew services stop mysql
This will also stop MySQL immediately. We can also avoid this by running:
This is going to start MySQL and will keep it running until the computer is shut down, or until we run:
And it will not restart it at reboot.
We can now connect to the server by using:
We will need to write in the root password after we run this command, and once we are done, we should be inside MySQL. You can use a GUI software that interacts with SQLite database called TablePlus. You can download it on macOS, Windows, and Linux.

Lack of police funds still problem in Smith Twp.
Smith Township officials received a little bad news during their last meeting of the year.
During her report, Fiscal Officer Mary Winters informed officials that the police fund remains underwater, and the situation doesn't appear to be improving -- especially with the recent failure of proposed replacement levies.
After all, trustees transferred $60,000 from the general fund into the police coffers earlier this year and haven't been able to replace it. In fact, as Winters pointed out, there is only $30,000 left in the fund, so they are $30,000 in the hole
Paul Freer, the trustee who oversees the police department, said that he is in the process of going through the past five years of police budgets and inquired about $7,000 in "tax collection fees" noted on the reports.
He added, "We are down $100,000 in collections from last year as of October."
Winters confirmed the accuracy of Freer's interpretation, noting that Mahoning County takes a cut of all its tax collections -- not only just from the Smith Township police levies.
The estimated cost to run the township's full-time police office, which covers 30 square miles, is $412,500.
Trustee David Mannion said that officials may have to tap some of the $100,000 received due to unexpected oil well and electric aggregation proceeds to buy cruisers over the next couple years in the absence of passage of police levies or the landfill reopening.
In other action, trustees approved the updated police manual, which stayed the same except for a modified police procedure regarding juvenile admissions due to changes in the law.
Next month, Smith Township will host a forum to discuss police issues at 7 p.m. Jan. 8 at the township building, where they will seek public input. The annual reorganization and regular meetings are scheduled to follow at 7:30 p.m.

Stressed, anxious, exhausted? Stress means one of two things; either there’s too much on your plate that you’re not able to deal with, or the method that you deal with stress needs an overhaul. Often, both are true. Learning to say no is one of the most vital skills you can ever develop. Keeping your priorities in order means the things you need to decline will be more apparent, which will give you the confidence to turn down the people who are preying on your time. Make a list of your priorities; how much time are you dedicating to the things which so that you can allocate more time to the things you need?
If you’re angry at and afraid of strangers, it’s time to rethink where you’re at. A stranger’s just a friend you haven’t met, and if you find yourself swearing at them from the inside of your car, or averting your eyes from theirs on the street, consider what kind of unfair and neurotic expectations you are wielding against them. Trust a little, live a little.

2020 Honda Jazz spy shots: </s> The European Union’s strict data protection standards will continue to go global in 2019, as more non-EU countries ramp up their privacy rules so they can transfer EU citizens’ personal data.
Brazil, Chile, and India also may try to secure adequacy findings with the EU, as multinational companies worldwide feel pressure to comply with the GDPR, privacy attorneys told Bloomberg Law.
“We should expect the EU to ramp up its efforts around the world on data protection in 2019 and to advocate that more countries adopt GDPR or GDPR-like laws,” Norma Krayem, senior policy adviser and chair of Holland and Knight LLP’s global cybersecurity and privacy policy and regulation group, said.
The EU already recognizes data protections in.
EU leaders kicked off talks in October with South Korean government and corporate sectors, in particular over the country’s oversight mechanisms and surveillance law, EU officials said in a statement.
A potential hurdle for South Korea is the lack of independence of its enforcement bodies, which the EU values, Jörg Hladjk, who leadsn group in Brussels, said. Other aspects of South Korean law also don’t align with the GDPR, including that it doesn’t distinguish between controllers and processors or define a data breach, Hladjk said.
But if South Korea can fix its enforcement issues, the country’s existing strict privacy standards could help it secure an EU adequacy finding, attorneys said.
The on prospects for a deal with Japan or South Korea.
Prospects for U.K., U.S.
Whether U.K. business will be able to transfer personal data freely depends on the outcome of the proposed agreement with the EU.
U.S. companies should keep a close eye on the annual EU-U.S. Privacy Shield review in 2019, attorneys said. Under the that program, U.S. companies that transfer the data of EU citizens agree to abide by privacy standards similar to those in EU privacy law. Some European officials and lawmakers in 2018 said the deal doesn’t provide enough protection, and the U.S. has been slow to appoint officials to privacy oversight positions.
Meanwhile, other non-EU countries are taking their first steps toward striking In entrepreneurial finance and in life, it’s always important to know where the exits are, even if they are behind you.
- Bullish Key Finding: Venture-backed M&A may be be reversing a long-standing downtrend, but it’s still a bit too early to tell for sure.
- Bearish Key Finding: There’s still a lot of employee and investor equity looking for a path to liquidity. Despite a relatively active market for IPOs, some of the biggest offerings anticipated for the rest of 2018 (like Lyft and Airbnb) have been pushed back.

"In concentrating on towns and larger communities, the state government expects to support fewer communities over time, particularly as migration away from small outstations continues," the draft report states. "However, the state government will not prevent Aboriginal people from living remotely or continuing to access country for cultural reasons."
"Connection to country is inherent, we are born to it, it is how we identify ourselves, it is our family, our laws, our responsibility, our inheritance and our legacy, wrote Catherine Liddle on the website of National Indigenous Television. "s. Modern constructs of identification do not work for us, in fact they dismantle the fabric that holds us together."
"The Barnett government continues to use their well-honed paternalistic based policies on our people to open up the land for mining and international investments, and in doing so, saves them the responsibility to improve health and other issues caused directly by government's purposeful neglect."
" Disingenuously, on releasing the report [on 14 July], regional development minister Terry Redman said no one will be forced to leave their homelands. As recently as May, Barnett said that he would like to see fewer remote communities."
SOSblakAustralia, which spearheaded opposition when the closures were first mooted, says "ry. This is an attack on basic human rights. This is a breach on. ide. We know that the a. We know this is an act of terror toward Indigenous People. We do not accept this report. It's time to come back together."
Les Thomas, an organiser for SOSBlakAustralia, said: "The way the report couches its language it's as if the government is doing a humanitarian favour when the fact is this is wiping out our rights to live on our own country. If they start closing the smaller outstations, who knows what's next."
"We don't get any government assistance aside from basic services such as water. We need assistance for maintenance of housing. Our only income is generated from collecting rent." He says he wants to use the land to build more businesses. "We'd like to start a company that manages rubbish. That will provide more jobs for our community."
"HAboriginal legal, health and other services in recent years by the federal government, yet they are willing to spend tens of millions foisting the 'Recognise' campaign which has been largely rejected by Aboriginal people.

Yet subsidies for big business and their imperialist wars seem to be never ending."
In response, residents and community supporters have set up a Waterloo tent embassy. Aunty Jenny Munro, veteran Aboriginal activist, told Red Flag that the plans would be the "death knell for this community …
"We are calling for protests on Aboriginal Children's Day this year, to continue the fight against the mass removal of children from their families by "child protection" services across Australia."

Emerging markets are notorious for being a roller coaster ride of ups and downs. So far this year, the signs are pointing to an upswing.
They could very well beat the U.S. this year. Falling oil prices and the strong U.S. dollar were problems for emerging markets in the past. They're overall positives now, experts say.
Despite a recent surge, emerging markets still offer a good bang for your buck. The S&P 500 is trading at about 17 times expected earnings. Compare that to the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, which is only trading at 13 times earnings. A popular fund, the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (EEM), is up 6% in the past month alone.
"They are relatively inexpensive in a world where there are few bargains," says Jeff Kleintop, chief global strategist at Charles Schwab.
CNN wants to know: What's your biggest question about investing?
Many people buy into the idea that countries like China and Brazil will grow their middle class substantially in the coming years, but the reason to purchase emerging market stocks right now is all about oil.
Oil opportunity: Plunging oil and other commodity prices do hurt some countries like Russia, but the majority of emerging market nations now import more oil than they export. That means low oil prices are good for many emerging countries and their businesses.
The tide has turned for the heavyweights, like China, India, South Korea and Taiwan. Stocks in those countries make up about half the value of the emerging market index and the companies are much more consumer-focused now than in the past, experts say.
"For many [emerging] countries, especially the Asian economies, the energy decline is a tailwind, it's a positive," says Audrey Kaplan, senior portfolio manager at Federated Investors Inc.
Related: Winners and losers in oil's plunge
No more dollar dilemma: It's also time to bust the myth that a strong U.S. dollar hurts emerging markets.
When the dollar gets stronger, other foreign currencies lose value. A weaker currency sounds bad, but it actually helps increase the value of emerging markets in two ways: trade and debt.
Emerging countries can produce goods even more cheaply and sell them to America for a higher profit. Take Turkey, for example. Its currency, the Lira, has lost a lot of value in recent years compared to the dollar and euro. That helps Turkish goods look cheap in Western Europe.
"It's a growth story. Earnings and sales revisions are increasing because its currency depreciated so significantly," Kaplan says. Turkey is, "an export economy. It exports to the rest of Europe, everything from toasters to auto supplies."
Turkey is doing so well that it has four of the top 10 fastest growing cities in the world, according to the Brookings Institution.
Currency instability used to plague emerging market debt. Back in the 1990s, the U.S. dollar was getting stronger. That caused a crisis in emerging markets because many countries had their debt denominated in U.S. dollars. A stronger dollar made their debt more expensive.
Countries got smarter. Now the majority of emerging nations' debt is in local currency, according to the International Monetary Fund. The local bonds protect them from times like today when the U.S. dollar is going up.
Central banks across emerging markets have positioned their economies to better withstand future volatility in commodities and currency, experts say.
"They no longer feel the pinch when the dollar goes up," Kleintop says. "They've become much more like they're developed country peers."
Related: China pumps $100 billion into banks to boost economy
2015 rush: There could be a major uptick in money for emerging market stocks this year, according to eVestment, a data analytics company in Atlanta that tracks stock movements. They estimate that investment into those stocks this year will be $50 billion -- more than four times higher than last year.
Owning individual stocks traded on exchanges in China, India and other nations is getting easier. China launched a pilot in 2014 to allow more foreign investors to purchase shares on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, but the majority of investors gain exposure to emerging markets through a mutual fund or an ETF that tracks an index such as the MSCI Emerging Markets.
"People have to look towards emerging markets for higher growth and higher returns," over the long term, says Nick Smithie, chief investment strategist at Emerging Global Advisors in New York.

The idea of being able to implement new features without being forced up against the wall, to pay for feature licenses, is an obvious turn-on. Then again, the notion that the same minor network driver issue that could provide a vexing weekend of troubleshooting on a homebrew server could be the very same one that keeps dragging down an entire LAN makes my stomach turn. Despite a limited budget for test equipment, I can stomach some tough work and research so long as it leads to needed solutions that I can deploy for long-term production with confidence.
Cisco ASA (5505) Pros:
- sturdy construction, wall and rack mounts available
- easily tolerates the wide temperature swings typically present at smaller location router installs
- world-class software and on-site hardware support
- efficient, well-tuned OS
- popularity = documented fixes / workarounds for most any situation encountered
- no moving parts to stop moving at inopportune times
Cisco ASA (5505) Cons:
- dedicated to throwing small operators under bus
- requires additional costs for f/w updates and device recovery (anyone in the office have a spare USB to serial cable you can borrow?)
- incompatible w/ best practice of referring to NTP server by fqdn
- incompatible w/ even simple dynamic dns services, utilized for redundancy
- lacks even basic DNS services for orgs w/o a dedicated, on-site server
- limited / out-of-touch offerings for anything but mega-sized orgs
- arbitrary limitations imposed on otherwise capable devices, merely to generate additional revenue
pfSense on embedded, solid-state device Pros:
- more cost effective, and growing even more so, as PC prices decline
- no manufacturer incentive to hold me hostage for licensing fees
- device software limits logically tied hardware limitations in a practical way, allowing for easier forethought, selling, and planning
- in some cases, building a fully-redundant cold or hot swap unit would be less than the cost of Cisco + SmartNet
- support for USB flash drives eases admin burden
- Layer 7 inspection and VLAN trunking support out-of-the-box
- Linux base means ability to add relevant packages, like Asterisk, for a small-business PBX server
- can run off commodity hardware in an emergency
pfSense on embedded, solid-state device Cons:
- uncertainty: most of the (compact, powerful, yet solid-state) devices I’ve looked at feature Realtek NICs, instead of genuine Intel as I (and pfSense documentation) would prefer. Ordering hundreds of dollars in parts to build a router would not yield a happy client if something as basic and fundamental as NIC drivers could grow into a time-consuming, network-crashing issue
- support: I understand these smaller, open-sourced businesses may be forced to charge for time rather than on a per-incident basis. If their team is effective, it could be a more profitable solution, with just a few hours potentially lasting me a long time. On the other hand, if they are ineffective script readers, I could find myself out of a job and support hours all at once. Even if awsome,, they could succumb to economic pressures and fold tomorrow, leaving me with no support team at mission critical moments of the multi-year lifespan of these devices
- some resources must be wasted: I am not naive enough to think that a router based on a general-purpose OS could perform as efficiently as Cisco IOS - I go in assuming I will need a processor at least twice as powerful as the one I’d find in a comparable Cisco device to attain the same level of performance. This is approximately consistent with the recommendations tendered on the pfSense blog. I hope to be pleasantly surprised, yet I work in IT so I continue to plan for the worst.
- difficult to keep consistent hardware lineup means additional time spent tweaking and developing support and testing protocols for an ever-evolving set of hardware
I’m not interested in hearing about non-Cisco or non-Open Source options. I’ve seen all I care to: they are all second-rate compared to Cisco. All the commercial competitors decapitate their product lines unnecessarily, in vital ways, so as to coerce additional monetary payments at the most inconvenient moments. Once one graduates past a 5505 with Security Plus license and even basic level SmartNet, they are in a price range where considering alternatives that factor in a cold spare becomes not insane.
Much as I enjoy foregoing raises and vacations so that the IT budget can be spent enabling router commands I need in order to do my job, this must end somewhere. I feel the end of my near-universal endorsement period for ASAs may be coming to a close.
I am still in the midst of conducting research. I hope to have a clearer vision of what the specs and costs will be for a solid-state pfSense appliance that I can recommend for purchase with confidence. The (slightly) lower price and patience of my friend will buy me some leeway for testing, and even post-rollout tweaking. The potential for embarrassment and/or sky-high support costs still looms - as does letting this valuable educational opportunity pass me by.
I was looking initially at the Jetway JNF9D from mini-box. I like many things about the design, particularly the fact that it is solid-state, wall mountable, has 5 Ethernet ports, and operates on 12VDC. Concern over their use of Realtek NICs and proprietary daughterboards has found me investigating other options and drafting this query.
I can’t be the only one pondering this type of situation.
I am very interested in thoughts and suggestions, particularly from those who have recently installed pfSense on the newer breed of powerful small machines, and those who have experience both with pfSense and commercial Cisco gear.

Hi legalizeit
Having build a lot of PFSense boxes, I must say that I absolutely love PFsense, It is rock solid and just works.
I have mostly used Intel mini-itx boards for this purpose, d2500cc or s1200kpr (much more expensive build)
If you stick a d2500cc, memory, a cheap intel ssd in a mini-itx case, you would look at around $250-$300. You could tweak this with a usb stick instead of a ssd, but I tend to use SSD/Harddrive instead as it's the preferred way of running PFSense according to PFSense :-)
I know that $250-$300 is above you price point, but I found that the customer usually like the increased stability of a router/firewall that just work 24/7.
Mar 16, 2013 at 10:14 UTC
With one year of SmartNet and a wall mount, your most basic Cisco ASA 5505 easily exceeds $500. It's much closer to, or over, $1,000 for the license to enable VLANs on said device (license, in this case, is merely a code you type in that unlocks commands within Cisco's proprietary OS).
For my next project I'd be employing a real, IOS 12 Cisco router. Refurbished equipment costs will start at $1500.
After I equip the Intel mobo you suggest with a case, RAM, a small SSD, a power supply, 2 or more PoE injectors, and wall mount kit I'd be lucky to scoot by at $450, which is still well within the equipment budget. I'm aware and prepared for the fact that building a quality pfSense appliance will likely be more than a basic 5505 w/ no mount kits or support. If it gives me more freedom to shine, then I'd consider it well worth it. If it just causes more headaches, it'd be the epitome of bad investment.
One contradiction that kills me is the

There are some plot twists that are ubiquitous in dramas. Love triangles take first place, but the birth secret is a close second. It seems almost impossible for a drama to manage to make it through its run without pulling some form of birth secret, and that’s not limited to melos either. Action-revenge drama City Hunter? Yoon-sung’s birth father wasn’t his real father. Classic trendy drama Feelings? Yuri’s brother isn’t actually her brother. But why is this one plot convenience so common?
Part of the reason is that birth secrets actually happen in Korean society, both in terms of adoption and altered family relations. Confucian cultures have a heavy emphasis on bloodlines, which has led to a societal resistance to taking in non-related children. Up through the 2000’s, most Korean children adopted were adopted overseas. Even when the government tightened restrictions, the rate of domestic adoptions stayed about the same. Those who adopt will often pretend the adopted child is biological, due to the public perception that infertility is shameful. Thus, the scene in You’re the Best, Lee Soon-shin where the titular protagonist finds out she was adopted is something that actually happens.
The other major type of birth secret are altered family relations, where the characters’ family is their biological family, but the nitty-gritty of the relationships are altered. Grandparents posing as parents is the most common variation, currently seen in weekend drama Wonderful Season. And these happen in real-life as well. Javabeans and GirlFriday, founders of the website Dramabeans, are both of Korean descent. In their book Why Do Dramas Do That?, they openly admit that birth secrets are so common in their families that they have ceased to shock them.
“Perhaps it’s because elders in the Korean family structure tend to make decisions (e.g., adopt that child) and then talk about it for decades. The illusion becomes the new truth, everyone accepts it, and anybody not lucky enough to have been alive to know the real situation is left out of the loop.”
Because birth secrets happen in real life, the utilization of birth secrets can be less a case of using a well-known plot twist to fill an episode and more of a writer simply writing what they know. However, the appeal for writers under deadline cannot be understated.
Birth secrets are one of the best twists for a writer to pull out of the Bag of Ways to Fill Airtime because they are so versatile. In the event of sagging ratings, one can be instigated at anytime, with little to no warning, and the effects can be drawn out forever. One such case is You’re the Best, Lee Soon-shin. Soon-shin learning that she was adopted and her subsequent issues with both her biological mother and adoptive family are what really drives over half of the show, letting the original premise of Soon-shin’s struggle to find her niche in life fall by the wayside. As the birth secret took more and more of each episode, the ratings just continued to rise.
Other times, they can be dropped at the start of the drama to give their otherwise formulaic set-up a way to stand out. One of the things about Heirs that caught a lot of people’s eye is Kim Tan’s birth secret. His mother is the mistress of the most powerful CEO in Korea, so Tan’s mother is listed in the records as his step-mother. This is something which he, his brother, and their parents are all very aware of, yet it is shielded from the public at all costs. Tan’s frustration that this is secret is one of the most telling aspects of his character early on, as the usual chaebol wouldn’t want to risk his claim to the family fortune.
Then, there is that which seems to go hand-in-hand with birth secrets: faux-cest. The drama of falling in love with someone seen as a sibling is almost unparalleled. The drama that codified the trope of faux-cest via birth secret was the 1994 hit Feelings. Yuri’s developing relationships with Han Bin, Hun, and Joon are affected by the slowly pieced together reveal that Joon is Yuri’s brother. Add in the fact that Joon was the first of all three brothers to fall for her, and the well-named drama succeeds in wrenching the audiences’ hearts into knots. However, the success of Feelings led to many copycats, and they were not as well-done, leading to the modern view of birth secrets: they’re a tool for lazy writers to use in place of character development or advancing the main plot.
Sometimes, though, a birth secret can actually be used like any other narrative tool, and enhance the story being told. City Hunter is one of the best examples of this, as the only reason for Yoon-sung’s birth secret to be mentioned at all is for the sake of the story. The ratings were sky-high, it came at the tail end of the run, and while his biological sister Da-hye had a minor crush on him in the beginning, it was never important.
Instead, when Yoon-sung learns that his adoptive father, Jin-pyo, lied to him about the identity of his biological father, it almost destroys him, something that is furthered when he realized his real father is the last man on his hit list, and has been unknowingly acting as a second father to his son. He’s faced with a choice between revenge and forgiveness, between his past and his future. The fact that it’s also a choice between his two fathers serves to echo the conflict rather than diminish it.
Birth secrets in dramas will never go away, but, like any other common drama element, they’re subjective, and depend on the execution of the drama to pass or fail. What do think of birth secrets, readers? Are there any example you particularly like or hate?

Secret babies! Secret babies! In the drama! Secret, secret, secret, secret babies!
I don’t mind it when the secret babies are used correctly. A drama that had secret babies that I like was “can you hear my heart?”
wow did not know javabeans and girlfriday came out with a book!
To this day, I still think City Hunter pulled off the most ingenious birth secret plot. I was still pretty new to K-dramas then, but I really didn’t see it coming until it was revealed.

In an extended account of national identity, this companion volume to People, Places and Passions provides the first detailed study of the sexual and spiritual life of Wales in the period 1870–1945. The author argues that whilst Wales and its people experienced a disenchantment of the spiritual world, a revolution in sexual life was taking place. This innovative study examines how advances in life expectancy and improvements in health were reflected in emotional life. In contrast to the traditional emphasis upon hardship and hardscrabble experiences, this fascinating and beautifully written volume shows that the Welsh were also a free and fun-loving people.

Demonstrates how four books by dissident German intellectuals served as a rebuke to the Nazi regime. During 1942, the decisive battles of Stalingrad and El Alamein raged and the Nazi genocide was at its lethal peak. The Pen Confronts the Sword examines the shared motives behind four remarkable texts German exiles began writing that year: Thomas Mann’s Doctor Faustus (1947); Ernst Cassirer’s The Myth of the State (1946);; and44). Each identified a specific danger in Nazi ideology and mustered new theories, approaches, and sources to combat it. The books aimed to expose the encompassing catastrophes of German culture (Mann), politics (Cassirer), philology (Auerbach), and philosophy and sociology (Horkheimer and Adorno). Their scope, mastery, and sense of urgency constitute a comprehensive Kulturkampf (culture war) against Nazi barbarism. Avihu Zakai cogently analyzes each work, explains the context of its creation, and draws connections between these four landmark books in Western intellectual history.

Daniel Yerger April 13, 2021 Financial Planning 1 Comment
The admonishment to not “judge a book by its cover” is usually one encouraging us to be better people. “Look past a person on their worst day or who presents poorly to see that they’re a human being just having a hard day. See the merit in every individual and get to know them better than they appear;” or some such encouragement from our parents might go. However, the less often used context of this expression is as a warning. “Don’t take things for granted” or “Don’t assume things are as they appear.” Today, we’re exploring some of the issues with the “packaging” of the financial world, and how consumers of financial services and products should be careful to read the fine print and do extra due diligence before assuming things are as they appear.
Socially Environmental Responsibly Sustainable Governance Investing
The word soup above is the amalgamation of “ESG” or “Environmental Social Governance” and “SRI” or “Socially Responsible Investing.” These two terms are in the current “vogue” of investing, including a multitude oflaunched with assorted themes such as “investing in minority-owned companies” or “investing in companies that combat climate change”, and so on. However, recently() caught flack for saying “I ‘green’ –ies –” As if to underline the truth of this claim, Phil Bak, the chief investment officer of Signal Advisors, tweeted out the comparison of three Blackrock funds over the weekend: “For 3 bps you get the S&P 500, for 15 bps you get to ‘drive innovation by embedding sustainability risk into our active investment process’ and for 30 bps you get ‘a sea change in global investing.’ Tell me which is which.” Of the three funds he then listed the top holdings for, all three had Apple, Microsoft, and Amazon as their three largest holdings and in almost identical proportion and order, all of them held Google, Facebook, JPMorgan, and two of them held Tesla, Berkshire Hathaway, and Johnson and Johnson. The order of the asset selection and concentration in all three funds was almost identical. So much for funds driving innovation in sustainability risk for 5x the cost or combatting rising sea levels for 10x the cost. None of this is to say that ESG or SRI investing are bad ideas or lack merit, but more goes to highlight the current trend of investment companies establishing largely arbitrary ESG/SRI criteria and opening funds that invest in more or less the same thing as their core investments do, but with significantly higher prices. With ethical investing must come virtue signaling, at least on some level? The cautionary tale here of course is clear: Just because the label says ESG/SRI or has some sort of ethical investing theme attached to it, doesn’t mean that when you look under the hood you’ll find anything different than a much cheaper run of the mill index fund.
Advisors are Yesterday’s News
While I’m an enormous critic of the SEC’s regulation “Best Interest”, it did accomplish one thing. No wait, that’s not true: It didn’t accomplish anything, but it did cause companies to get cleverer with how they deceived the public. One of the rules of “Reg BI” is that it finally regulated the term “advisor” and required that insurance agents and brokers using the term as their job title actually bmeaning that they’re actually licensed to give securities advice, not just to sell an investment or insurance product. Not to miss a step, financial product companies immediately started rebranding their agents and brokers as “Registered Securities Brokers” and “Risk Management Consultants”. While the homogenous “Financial Advisor” title is now barely protected by the regulation, it has done nothing to protect the title of Financial Planner. While CFP® or CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ is still a protected title under the copyrights owned by the Certified Financial Planner Board, the non-certified “financial planner” title has also come under swift adoption by unscrupulous companies looking to borrow legitimacy. Thus, we’ve simply moved the ball of the most common title for people in financial services from being “Financial Advisor” to seeing a quickly growing use of “Financial Planner”. How does the public tell the difference? Look up the professionals you’re talking to and verify that they’re actually a financial planner or if they’re just pretending.
Not to say I’ve written about Reg BI too much, but the news keeps rolling in that it effectively just made public clarity of who is and isn’t a fiduciary harder to determine. Because the Reg BI regulation requires brokers and product salespeople to say “I am required to act in your best interest”, the public has gotten burned with greater regularity over the past year than in previous years. Why? Because prior to Reg BI, it would have actually been an illegal form of false advertising to state that very same thing, as brokers and insurance agents are fiduciaries to their companies, agencies, and carriers, and legally can’t act in a fiduciary capacity toward their clients. That’s still the case, but now the requirement to state best interest has created a requirement that the brokers lie to their customers. To expand on that issue even further, the regulation clearly carved the firm itself out of the Reg BI best interest requirements, so the firm can give a broker investments that literally serve only to line the firm’s pockets, and the broker is technically correct when they say “the best thing I can recommend for you is fund X”, which happens to be objectively awful and designed only to line the firm’s pockets. To rub salt in the wound, the item that’s supposed to help make all of this clear to the consumer, the “Customer Relationship Summary” or “Form CRS” has been found to be missing at over half of those firms that are required to use it. So not only has the regulation opened a legal loophole for brokers to lie to the public legally, but of the firms that are doing so, over half are simply ignoring the parts of the regulation that don’t benefit them.
“If this all seems like a lot of work, it certainly is. But hey, it’s only your life savings and your financial future you’re ultimately entrusting to these financial products and service firms.”
Ummmm, but, but, one must not only take the time, one must be able to understand what they are reading once they have read it. Many of us just don’t have the gray cells to understand the convoluted labyrinths of the financial world.

Although resettlement agencies such as the IC are allowed to use $2 in MG funds for each $1 in donations they gather, the ORR review found "numerous instances in which copious amounts of inappropriate and unallowable donations were being recorded and counted as MG match. Examples include $1,639 for clothing donations to [match the MG funds] a family of three…and $3,319 for clothing donations for a family of six…unclear service donations of $192 (I suspect that should be four digits — a piece here is redacted)…and counting donations that are clearly required as part of the [State Department refugee grant] (Mattresses [for one refugee] and pillows, sheets, mattresses, etc. for [another refugee] as MG match. The reviewer…found that donated goods were not…consistently valued in a manner that assigns reasonable values to such donations."
The IC intermingled funds from separate grants, even from separate US federal agencies, which the ORR assessed as "grossly incompliant" (sic). For example, the reviewer found "numerous instances where [IC] was incorrectly charging federal funds for employee time. ORR Matching Grant, ORR Cash Assistance, ORR Medical Assistance, ORR…

Are you passionate about diamonds? Are you passionate about jewelry? Are you good with your hands? Are you detail oriented? Are you extremely accurate and precise? Do you have keen eyesight? And are you responsible, reliable, and honest? If you gave affirmative answers to all the questions above, then you can make cool cash by getting your hands dirty with diamonds.
That is, you can consider starting a diamond cutting business. Diamonds are a timeless classic opportunity whose market yields many career and investment opportunities. Starting a diamond cutting business will not only enable you to cut diamonds, but it will also empower you to venture into sales and marketing of diamonds.
This is why a diamond cutting and polishing business plan is highly recommended. Before we discuss the steps involved in starting a diamond cutting business, let’s look at the various roles of a diamond cutter, since it is very important to learn what a business entails before venturing into it.
3. Get the needed tools
How much can you earn as a diamond cutter?
Diamonds are usually cut according to a variety of standard faceted designs, but custom cuts may be required, too. These custom cuts are the most difficult, as working out the measurement of the many faces of their design require a lot of mathematics.
The work of a diamond cutter revolves round three skills: sawing, cutting, and polishing. But more specifically, here are the tasks handled by a diamond cutter:
Checking for flaws in diamond stones
Determining the best faceted shape for the diamond
Girdling the diamond (creating a flat surface on a diamond stone by rubbing it against another stone)
Determining the final value of diamond using the 4 C’s (color, cut, claroity, and carat size)
With the above in mind, let’s now look at the steps involved in becoming a diamond cutter.
Starting a Diamond Cutting Company – Sample Business Plan Template
It is very important to evaluate yourself to determine if you really have all it takes to succeed as a diamond cutter. Only after you deem yourself fit and capable should you proceed to take a plunge.
Working as a diamond cutter requires training. You will need to enroll for a diamond cutting training program, where you will receive training on diamond grading, cutting and faceting, use of equipment, appraisals, diamond industry terminologies, and so on. You will be awarded a certificate at the end of the program if you are able to cut diamond perfectly and repair damaged diamonds.
Although certification is not necessary to work as a diamond cutter, being certified will give you a competitive edge and will help you earn higher rates than you would without certification. A certificate will also boost your credibility, as potential employers won’t nurse doubts over your expertise.
Aside being a proof of your expertise in diamond cutting, being certified will help you pursue opportunities in wholesale and retail of diamond, rough diamond brokering, and consulting.
Before you can start working as a diamond cutter, you will need to acquire the tools you will need. These include bruters, cleaving tools, measuring tools, and a heat source. The quality of your work hinges largely on the quality of your equipment, so ensure that your equipment are of very good quality.
Once you have perfected your diamond cutting skills, you can start hunting for opportunities. You can contact individuals and companies dealing with diamonds and ask if there are possible openings that you can fill as a diamond cutter. Provided you offer high quality services that satisfy your clients, you will attract more clients with time, and you will make more money.
When you are just starting out, you should expect a pay rate of around $10 per hour. But as you gain more experience, your rates will increase. Highly experienced, self-employed diamond cutters typically earn between $40,000 and $60,000 per annum.

Signing Bonuses for Physicians, Non-physician Providers Should You Expect a Signing Bonus With Your Job Offer? Print By Andrea Clement Santiago Updated February 27, 2018 Visivasncsigning bonus is a lump sum of money paid upon accepting a job offer. Signing bonuses are used as an added incentive, especially when competition for talent is very high, as it is for physicians and other non-physician advanced providers. "In today's physician recruiting market, most physicians expect, and receive, a signing bonus of some sort In fact, the volume of these signing bonuses has increased over the years and now are often are combined with "relocation bonuses" for an even greater incentive to lure top clinicians to a particular hospital or medical group. Over the past few years, physician signing bonuses have grown and are hovering above $20,000, according to Mr. Stone. For the first half of 2015, the average signing bonus was $21,595. Additionally, non-physician providers (s) are now commanding signing bonuses too. In 2014, half of all non-physician providers placed via the firm received a signing bonus, compared to only 11 percent in 2013. The average signing bonus for non-physician providers more than doubled, from $3,000 in 2013 to $7,500 in 2014. Signing Bonus Likelihood "More than 70 percent of the providers we placed received a signing bonus so far in 2015," states Stone, "so, you are more likely to get one than not, as a physician or advanced provider." However, it's still not a good plan to assume that you will definitely receive a signing bonus. The more competitive the specialty is, the more likely you will receive a bonus, and the higher it will be. Primary care and psychiatry are "hot" physician searches right now, (as of mid-2015), according to Mr. Stone. Also, smaller communities may be more likely to offer a larger bonus because they are competing with major metro areas. Make sure to ask the physician recruiter if you are interested in a signing bonus. Let him, or her, know that you have student debt to pay off or whatever your need is, if possible. Additionally, areas that are smaller or more rural, or designated shortage areas will be more likely to offer a signing bonus too. Don't take it personally if you are not offered a signing bonus. Often, these types of bonuses are budgeted in advance. Sometimes they aren't offered until or unless you ask for one. If you do ask, be sure to do so in a respectful way that doesn't come across as sounding greedy, or entitled. If possible, explain why you feel you need the up-front money, if you think it is a valid reason that would help state your case to your prospective employg

The world has been spellbound by the protests in Egypt that have led to the ouster of Hosni Mubarak. Currently, the Egyptian military is in control of the government and this leaves many in the US wondering what the future holds for Egyptians hungry for democracy. Because of how quickly Mubarak’s rule was toppled, there is a palpable sense of euphoria surrounding the events in Egypt. Many observers are wondering if this euphoria is premature, though. What do these events mean for the stability of the Middle East? Will this bring a wave of democracy to Egypt that will spread to the rest of the Middle East? Or will the military in Egypt maintain the autocratic status quo or establish a theocratic regime?
Many political analysts are conjecturing that it was the recent overthrow of the ruler in Tunisia that inspired Egyptians to join together in mass protest against Mubarak’s rule. As if we need more proof of how globalized and interconnected the world is, here we have events in one country affecting the political landscape of another country. Of course this is nothing new, but what is intriguing to me is how quickly these events transpired. On January 14th, the president of Tunisia was forced to flee the country. On January 25th, citizens began protesting in Egypt. And on February 11th, Mubarak relinquished power to the military. The government in Egypt was overthrown in eighteen days.
It is believed by many Egypt watchers that the speed of the regime change was aided by the use of social networking tools by protesters. Wired Magazine reported that Facebook was used by citizens to organize the protests and Twitter was used to broadcast the protests to the rest of the world. The Twitter hashtag #Jan25 was used by many – including the State Department – to track the events in Egypt. Recently, Tyler Thompson, an ADP student at FHSU, wrote an opinion piece for the ADP Blog and made the case that social networking tools were instrumental in increasing the scale and impact of the protests. This opinion can easily be challenged. Would the revolution have happened if it weren’t for Twitter and Facebook? Probably. Would it have happened as quickly? Maybe not. There is no way to know, of course, because we cannot isolate these events and understand them separate from our very networked world. However, it does beg important questions about the role of technology and social networking tools in fostering democratic societies.
This all leads me to the point of this blog post. Many students nationwide have been inspired by the revolution in Egypt and are talking about and following it. I would guess that they aren’t as clear about what this change in power means for US foreign policy given the political and strategic significance of Egypt’s former government to the US. And many more likely don’t know that Egypt is the fourth largest recipient of US foreign aid (after Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Israel). Egypt receives roughly $1.5 billion dollars in aid from the US. The reasons for this aid allotment are complex, and should be talked about nationwide.
Although ADP is focused nationally and on local issues concerning American democracy, events like the revolution in Egypt provide us with an opportunity to educate students about US foreign policy, our increasingly networked and interdependent world, and the ways in which international events affect local politics. Because of this, I challenge the leaders in the ADP network to engage their campus communities in discussions about the events in Egypt. Given all of the implications for US foreign policy and international politics, we cannot afford to ignore this and other world events in our efforts to educate citizens for our democracy.
Below are a list of suggested activities and resources that you might find useful as you encourage discussions about the events in Egypt as they relate to American democracy. This is by no means an exhaustive list and I hope that many in the ADP network will add to it.
The 7 Revolutions initiative is focused on developing the global understanding and competency of undergraduate students. 7 Revolutions (7 Revs) studies the seven major global trends that will impact the world by 2025 – governance, conflict, economic integration, population, information, technology, and resource management. If your campus currently uses the 7 Revolutions framework to educate globally competent citizens, think about how the events in Egypt can be explained by each of the 7 Revs. For example, one commentator noted that the leaders in Egypt are in their sixties and seventies and do not use social networking tools and thus underestimated how powerful these tools could be for protesters. In this one example, we see the revolutions of governance, population and technology reflected. What other connections can you make to the 7 Revs framework? And how do each of these revolutions being enacted in Egypt compare to issues around population, technology and governance in your own community? To learn more about 7 Revs, please visit this website.
Campus dialogues and conversations are a great way to educate and engage students in current events. Below are a list of potential discussion topics.
Should the US promote democracy abroad?
One topic of conversation could be whether or not the US should involve itself in democracy building around the world. A recent Pew study found that Americans give low priority to promoting democracy around the world. Yet much of US foreign policy claims to promote democracy. What is and should be the role for the US in worldwide democracy promotion in general and in Egypt specifically?
Should the US give aid to autocratic governments if this aid will help maintain stability in contentious places such as the Middle East?
As was mentioned above, Egypt is the recipient of $1.5 billion in US aid. The Obama administration was slow to condemn Mubarak’s refusal to relinquish power. According to the US State Department, Egypt is an important strategic ally. Engage your students in a discussion about the complexities of US foreign aid to countries like Egypt. Is it always black and white? Should we only give aid to countries that are free and democratic, or should we take a larger view of global stability and help countries that will help stabilize volatile regions like the Middle East? For an analysis of US aid to Egypt, please read this article.
What lessons and insights do people think the Egyptian movement holds for the civic revitalization of the US?
Another topic of conversation could explore how the civic agency of the Egyptian protesters compares to American citizens’ sense of their own agency. This New York Times article explores the Egyptians sense of civic agency.
What was the role of eCitizenship in the Egyptian Revolution?
An interesting conversation to have with your students would explore the importance and role of social networking tools in ushering in the Revolution in Egypt. How important is the internet to democracy? How much can we truly involve ourselves in foreign events when we are using social networking tools? This New York Times article discusses the importance of people not directly affected by revolutions bearing witness to the plight of the people involved. Social networking tools make this much easier. But is this enough to encourage and support democracy building worldwide?
Alternatively, theorists such as Malcolm Gladwell believe that the “Revolution will not be Tweeted.” Wired Magazine published an article conjecturing that the use of social networking tools allowed for the protests to quickly topple Mubarak’s regime. In response to Malcolm’s commentary on social networking tools, The New York Times hosted a “Room for Debate” feature about their use in promoting democracy.
What are (and should be) women’s roles in political protests?
Egyptian women were heavily involved in the protests. According to media reports, Egyptians saw women’s participation as a sign of the unified nature of the dissent. Engage your students in a conversation about women’s roles in political protests. This article provides more information about women’s participation in the Egyptian protests.
Education Week is primarily a resource for K-12 educators, however this article offers some great ideas for educating students about Egypt. Some of these ideas include hosting an Egypt Day during which students learn more about the history, culture and political environment of Egypt. This article also gives suggestions for classroom discussions that will help develop students’ knowledge and understanding of the events in Egypt.
Analysis and coverage of events in Egypt:
The New York Times offers an excellent analysis of the differing perspectives on Egypt in the Room for Debate series. This series covering Egypt explores the question of what the Egyptian military will do now that Mubarak is out.
This article by Nicholas Kristof in the Times offers a sobering perspective of the potential future for Egypt.
This Mother Jones article offers an excellent timeline of the events in Egypt with links for more information.
Al Jazeera also provides live coverage of the events in Egypt.
You can also follow the revolution on Twitter by using this hashtag: #Jan25
Finally, the WashingtonPost also offers a detailed analysis of the events in Egypt in this article.

Q: How do I specify non-scalar parameters in a Slim table? I want to test functions that have non-scalar parameters and return types, e.g., "given a matrix M, check that M times its inverse is the appropriate identity" or "given a row vector V, check that transpose(V) is the correct column vector.
Do I need a clever use of TableTable?
