Crypto-assets raise a host of issues around consumer and investor protection, market integrity, money laundering, terrorism financing, tax evasion, and the circumvention of capital controls and international sanctions
Mark Carney, Governor of the Bank of England in a speech on the 2nd of March 2018.
Over the last six weeks, we have taken a look at many of the different aspects of cryptocurrencies or “crypto-assets” as some are calling them. We’ve looked at the underlying technology, the concept of cashless economies, cryptocurrencies as cash, the risks in trading cryptocurrencies and some of the investment considerations of cryptos. In this final piece in the series, we’ll be looking at the regulatory landscape surrounding cryptocurrencies and the different approaches taken by governments and the financial regulators of the world, but first a relevant question.
What IS a cryptocurrency?
Is it meant to be (as its name implies), a currency? Or is it an investment vehicle in the traditional sense like any other security? At this point I turn to Adam Smith who in The Wealth of Nations defined a currency as:
- A store of value with which to transfer purchasing power from today to some future time;
- A medium of exchange with which to make payments for goods and services; and
- A unit of account with which to measure the value of a particular good, service, saving or loan.
From this perspective, it is clear that SOME cryptocurrencies at least ASPIRE to be currencies, although they are clearly not there yet. This is an important distinction to make because as many people may not be aware, foreign exchange (the transacting of one currency to another) is generally unregulated when dealing with spot transactions (as opposed to derivatives based on foreign exchange which are regulated).
The difficulty here is that there are also some cryptocurrencies which are very clearly a security rather than a currency and yet companies are trying to circumvent some of the investor protections which are associated with buying stock in a company by issuing a cryptocurrency.
From a regulatory perspective and as we’ve seen time and again throughout the series, despite the name cryptocurrencies, these are really for the most part nothing other than a new generation of securities, at least at the moment. That may change in future and certainly governments and regulators are considering the possibilities of centrally backed digital currencies but for the most part as things stand today, cryptocurrencies are really securities/assets first and currencies as a distant (or not at all) second.
This is important since it has significant implications for the regulatory implications of cryptos.
What are Financial Regulators?
Regulators are organisations who have the responsibility to lay down and enforce the rules of a particular jurisdiction when it comes to the financial services industry. This includes the big and well known ones like the SEC in the US and the FCA in the UK among others. Financial regulation has existed in some form or other for hundreds of years and in general (certainly recently) it has a few good objectives:
- Maintaining confidence in the workings of the financial services industry.
- Maintaining the stability of the financial services system.
- Protecting consumers from fraudulent activities.
These three functions are somewhat complicated with the advent of new technologies and financial regulation is often about playing catch up to the realities of the market. Recent examples include the much vaunted MiFID II which was supposed to be about moving liquidity and trading away from dark venues and onto lit markets and exchanges. What have we seen since the volume caps restricted trading on dark markets? Movement of trading to periodic auctions and other such mechanisms for avoiding interacting with a normal continuous trading lit order books.
Other protections aim to provide a degree of circular responsibility such as the traditional shareholder and voting rights associated with stocks and shares. Barring the odd financial engineering effort such as Mark Zuckerberg basically holding all the voting rights for Facebook despite not being the majority shareholder in the company (recently prompting calls for him to step down in the wake of the Cambridge Analytica scandal since he can’t be removed as CEO, even by the board).
Should You Worry About Investing in Unregulated Cryptocurrencies?
Worry is a strong word. Certainly if you’re traditionally a cautious investor, you’re probably (for the time being) going to want to avoid them. There is a lot of money to potentially be made (and lost) in the crypto world, but there are a lot of risks which are risks that would be inherently mitigated by investing in traditional securities and by the regulatory regimes which govern them. As such, it’s right to investigate any cryptocurrency you’re considering investing in.
In December 2017, Jay Clayton the SEC Chairman wrote an interesting public statement which is published on the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) website. It was interesting for several reasons. First of all for its disclaimer stating that it reflects his own personal view and not the views of any other commissioner or indeed the Commission itself, despite appearing in a fairly prominent manner on the SEC website. Secondly, it was interesting due to its target audience. For a communication from a senior person on the website of one of the largest financial regulators out there, it was written in such a way as to be easily readable for the layperson. Finally (and perhaps most importantly), it was interesting in that it posed a number of questions which investors should ask when considering a cryptocurrency or ICO investment.
These questions are fundamentally things which most normal investors don’t need to ask since they are covered by traditional financial regulation but they’re relevant here and of course the point is that if you don’t feel satisfied with the answers of these questions (whether provided by the person touting the investment or your own research), you probably want to consider walking away.
- Who exactly am I contracting with?
- Who is issuing and sponsoring the product, what are their backgrounds, and have they provided a full and complete description of the product? Do they have a clear written business plan that I understand?
- Who is promoting or marketing the product, what are their backgrounds, and are they licensed to sell the product? Have they been paid to promote the product?
- Where is the enterprise located?
- Where is my money going and what will it be used for? Is my money going to be used to “cash out” others?
- What specific rights come with my investment?
- Are there financial statements? If so, are they audited, and by whom?
- Is there trading data? If so, is there some way to verify it?
- How, when, and at what cost can I sell my investment? For example, do I have a right to give the token or coin back to the company or to receive a refund? Can I resell the coin or token, and if so, are there any limitations on my ability to resell?
- If a digital wallet is involved, what happens if I lose the key? Will I still have access to my investment?
- If a blockchain is used, is the blockchain open and public? Has the code been published, and has there been an independent cybersecurity audit?
- Has the offering been structured to comply with the securities laws and, if not, what implications will that have for the stability of the enterprise and the value of my investment?
- What legal protections may or may not be available in the event of fraud, a hack, malware, or a downturn in business prospects? Who will be responsible for refunding my investment if something goes wrong?
- If I do have legal rights, can I effectively enforce them and will there be adequate funds to compensate me if my rights are violated?
The Regulatory Landscape Today and Tomorrow
Much of the world has adopted a wait and see approach to cryptocurrencies. While the wait and see happens, the slow wheels of government and regulators have begun churning to attempt to anticipate the likely direction that cryptocurrencies and blockchain technologies will go. While the underlying distributed ledger technology is seen as an interesting technological exercise and one which may serve the betterment of financial services in future, regulators are keen to distinguish that from the endorsement of cryptocurrencies themselves.
Additionally, wait and see isn’t entirely the case with high profile restrictions in places like China and India. Realistically, blanket bans are just pushing activity underground and abroad from jurisdictions which ban them while likely giving the regulators some breathing room to figure out how to manage them appropriately. Whether companies issuing cryptocurrencies to raise money should be subject to the kinds of rules associated with issuing stock and voting rights and powers rather than just giving money for what is clearly a speculative investment on the effort of others with little to no guarantee of return other than the possibility for capital appreciation of the token is acceptable or not remains to be seen. It will be interesting to see an ICO which offers voting rights and dividends equivalent to its shareholders to its coin investors but while companies can raise funds by effectively giving away nothing, this seems unlikely to change in the short term.
In other areas, traditional financial organisations like CME and CBOE have started offering derivatives on Bitcoin to try to aid some of the transition into the established financial services industry and these are of course regulated entities which come with the associated protections. However people would of course do well to remember that derivatives are so named as they derive their value from an underlying instrument and that this underlying instrument is unregulated and as explained in our trading article, heavily subject to market manipulation due to highly concentrated liquidity pools and other constraints which may not apply to such an extent on other traditionally unregulated spot foreign exchange currency markets.
Additionally, the UK Financial Conduct Authority recently stated that although cryptocurrencies are not (yet) subject to regulation by the FCA, cryptocurrency derivatives are capable of being financial instruments as defined by MiFID II and as such any firms conducting regulated activities in these instruments must comply with all applicable rules in the FCA Handbook and any relevant provisions in EU regulations. What this means from a practical perspective is that anyone dealing in, arranging transactions in, advising on derivatives in relation to cryptocurrencies or tokens issued through an ICO is required to be authorised by the FCA. Conducting this while not being authorised is a criminal offence and being authorised but not having permission to offer those specific products would subject the authorised entity to enforcement action.
The bottom line is that the business of regulation is a slow one. Comments from Governor Carney, Chairman Clayton and others are only the earliest of indications that regulation is coming for cryptocurrencies. The days of them claiming to be actual legitimate currencies are obviously numbered, Bitcoin and any others such as Ether which have a hard ceiling of supply or a supply coefficient which is based on an actual number rather than a proportion will ultimately be deflationary in nature if they were ever to become true currencies.
I’ll finish off with another quote from Mark Carney’s speech in which he says that fixed supply:
…would impart a deflationary bias on the economy if such currencies were to be widely adopted. If “those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it”, recreating a virtual global gold standard would be a criminal act of monetary amnesia. | 2,290 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-34/segments/1534221211664.49/warc/CC-MAIN-20180817025907-20180817045907-00300.warc.gz | 0.964837 |

The product of a collaboration between director Sarah Gavron (Suffragette, Brick Lane), screenwriters Theresa Ikoko and Claire Wilson, casting director Lucy Pardee and a group of young, mostly non-actors, Rocks offers a raw and energetic examination of the struggle of a Nigerian-British teenage girl nicknamed Rocks (played with extraordinary power by newcomer Bukky Bakray) and her young brother in working-class inner London. While it has echoes of the kind of British social realism made by Ken Loach, the film is also a buoyant celebration of female friendships, youth and joie de vivre that delights in the girls´ improvised, fast-paced dialogue, the music they listen to, or the manifold cultural differences that seem to bind them together. Featuring an almost entirely female crew (including the DoP, editor and composer) Rocks is a tour de force, a film that handles its gritty subject matter with charm and sensitivity.
Review by: Chloë Roddick
Sarah Gavron | United Kingdom, 1970
She graduated from the University of York with an arts degree in 1992. She also did a master’s degree in film studies at the Edinburgh College of Art. Later she went to the National School of Film and Television in the United Kingdom. Gavron took classes with Stephen Frears, a director whom she considers an important influence. Her filmography highlights Brick Lane (2007), a film about a woman from Bangladesh who arrives in London in the 80s, and Sufragette (2015), in which Carey Mulligan, Helena Bonham Carter and Meryl Streep acted. She recently directed the fourth season of the series Transparent. | 363 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107892710.59/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026234045-20201027024045-00264.warc.gz | 0.942378 |

I made it on a website. I have short brown hair like the avatar. I’m surprised they had my exact hairstyle. My eyes are actually a little bit browner than the avatars but they didn’t have another option that wasn’t completely brown. The hair, the nose, and everything else looks the same.
I’m wearing a dark green hoodie for a couple reasons. For one, it matches the eyes, I also really like that color. I have a couple hoodies that are the same color, and they look like that. I like to be in the woods and that is a color that matches the woods.

In his politburo meeting opening remarks yesterday, Mnangagwa said party members must remain disciplined and desist from imposing candidates.
"The re-introduction of the District Coordination Committees (the DCCs) must serve as a mechanism to further consolidate our party's mobilisation strategy at the grassroots level. I, therefore, exhort the leadership and the structures of the party to consolidate our democratic internal processes and culture. Undemocratic behaviour such as the imposition of candidates, vote buying and other electoral malpractices divide the party, they must not be tolerated at whatever level.
"Those who contest in elections must be prepared to accept the election outcome that is the democratic way the party knows. To be a good leader one must be prepared to be a good follower. These DCC elections and upcoming by-elections must, therefore, consolidate our party's indisputable dominance and peaceful democratic culture in the country," Mnangagwa said.
This comes after Zanu-PF national political commissar Victor Matemadanda recently told the Daily News that the party leadership would not tolerate imposition of leaders.
"I am still to get a report on how the elections are being held countrywide, but as long as the rules are not followed, we will overturn the results. We want leaders who come through an election where there was strict adherence to the rules; we will not accept leaders who come from someone's pocket," Matemadanda said.
On the other hand, Mnangagwa yesterday said the country's economy was stabilising due to measures his government had put in place.
"The government is a product of the party, vision 2030 will be only realised through working together in peace, harmony and unity.

ISO 9022-17:2015 specifies the methods relating to the environmental tests of optical instruments and including additional assemblies from other fields (e.g. mechanical, chemical, and electronic devices) under equivalent conditions, for their ability to resist the influence of combined contamination and solar radiation. "Contamination", as used in ISO 9022-17:2015, means the contact of optical instruments with corrosive chemical substances (hereafter called test agents).
Complete instruments or assemblies are, however, not be tested to ISO 9022-17:2015 except for special reasons (refer to ISO 9022-12). As a rule, representative substrates are used as specimens.
The tests described in ISO 9022-17:2015 are designed for the selection of materials and components for instruments likely to be subjected to combined contamination and solar radiation during service life, rather than for regular production control.
The purpose of testing is to investigate the resistance of an instrument, and in particular, of instrument surfaces, coatings, or synthetic materials, to a short-time exposure to the test agents combined with solar radiation.

Beneits of caring for your grandchild
One of the great things about becoming a grandparent is loving and caring for your grandchild without being responsible for her in the same way her parents are. The relationship between grandparents and grandchildren can have a very positive inluence on children’s development – for example, it can help your grandchild recover from life’s setbacks. Helping your grandchild’s parents is a great way to deepen relationships with them too.
Looking after your grandchild: Things to think about
When you’re thinking about looking after your grandchild, you probably have a few things to consider. Being a grandparent is just one part of your life. It’s likely that you’re balancing the needs of your grandchild with other things like housework, paid work, hobbies, volunteer work and time for yourself.
You might be delighted to provide child care or look after your grandchild. Or you might not want to do regular child care, but you might still want to spend time with your grandchild and support your grandchild’s parents in other ways.
Tips for caring for your grandchild
Here are some tips for dealing with some common issues when looking after grandchildren:
• Holidays and illness. Give your grandchild’s parents plenty of notice if you’re going away – it might be hard to replace you! They could hire a nanny, ask friends or other family members, or take time off work. You could also talk about back-up care for when you or your grandchild are sick.
• Behaviour. Ask your grandchild’s parents what strategies they ind useful when their child behaves in a challenging way and follow their lead. These decisions are their responsibility.
• Rules and routines. It’s best to ask your grandchild’s parents how they would like you to handle rules and routines. Asking before you make changes shows respect for these rules and routines – for example, ‘Can I give her some sweets if she’s good?’
• Money matters. Looking after grandchildren can be expensive. Food, transport and keeping your grandchild entertained can all add up. You can talk with your grandchild’s parents about providing some money to help with costs. You can often entertain children with homemade toys and free activities and have just as much fun.
• Different styles of caring. Your grandchild is being raised in a different world from the one you were raised in and the one you raised your children in. You might not always agree with the decisions that your grandchild’s parents make. However, not agreeing doesn’t make these decisions the wrong ones. It might help to read up on some current thinking on child development, sleep, behaviour, discipline, safety and nutrition and itness. You can ind out more about these topics on our Baby Bonus Parenting Resources portal.
Here are some tips to help your child care arrangements work for you:
• Be honest about what you can do. For example, if you’re not sure that you can manage one long day each week, let your grandchild’s parents know what you are willing to do – ‘I can’t do 7 am to 6 pm, but I can do an afternoon each week’. Or if you feel you could help but you’d also like your grandchild’s parents to hire a helper, let them know – ‘I could help every afternoon, if you have a helper who could help me’.
• You can agree on your own house rules when you look after your grandchild in your own home. For example, ‘Don’t go outside by yourself’.
• If looking after your grandchild late at night is affecting your rest, staying at your grandchild’s house, or having your grandchild sleep over at your house, might be a solution.

I don’t know what went wrong, my dear.
I remember you standing there in a pale yellow dress, waiting patiently while I presented my greatest trick to the audience. As you vanished in a cloud of smoke, the last thing I saw was you blowing me the kiss. And then the time for The Prestige* came, but you were gone.
I can forgive you ruining my career…but did you have to break my heart?
These days the birds are the only companions to my jaded soul. How sad that the applause is replaced with the flapping of the wings…
*Each magician’s trick has three parts; The Pledge, where the audience is presented with an ordinary object; The Turn, where the object is turned into something extraordinary; and The Prestige, where the object is brought back.
Inspiration is a dangerous beast, lurking from the shadows, waiting a perfect moment to jump on your back and drag you into unknown. It dragged me far away this week and I barely managed to tie it back by a bird’s feather. | 283 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00680.warc.gz | 0.942858 |

Facials can be performed by a licensed cosmetician, esthetician, dermatologist or other qualified provider. Spas, medi-spas and other skin care centers offer facials. Most offer different types of facials that address the most pressing skin care needs such aging, dryness, sagging, pigmentation, etc.
The national average cost for a facial is $60-$80. More complex facials, such as microdermabrasion or chemical peel, will cost more, as will services provided by a dermatologist or plastic surgeon. The products used can also affect the cost of your facial; high-end creams and serums will likely result in a higher cost. For most non-medical facials, the practitioner will perform a skin assessment, determining your skin type and learning about your lifestyle, diet and skin care concerns. Then the facialist will cleanse and exfoliate the skin, extract any blackheads and clear clogged pores, give a facial massage, apply a treatment mask and then apply moisturizers. Typically facials are relaxing and restorative, leaving your skin clear and dewy.
What’s the best way to set up a consultation or an appointment with a massage therapist during the COVID-19 pandemic?
Ask your massage therapist if they offer consultations over a video chat or phone call. If they do, ask them any questions you have about the upcoming appointment. For example, ask what precautions they're taking to keep both parties safe due to the COVID-19 pandemic. You might also want to ask if they offer gift cards that can be used at a later time, remote services or even virtual lessons for you or members in your household.
Also, ask how they plan to handle payments, and whether you can pay through an online or digital method instead of with physical cash or credit cards.
Because massage therapy requires person-to-person contact, social distancing is not possible. However, you can ask massage therapists near you if they can offer remote services instead, such as lessons for you and your partner.
If you don’t want to book an appointment with a massage therapist right now, but you will in the future when the pandemic subsides, consider paying your massage therapist in advance or tipping them anyway. You can also ask about buying a gift card for future work.
There are many types of facials you can receive based on your skincare goals. Pricing for facials will vary based on the skin care provider you see and your geographic location. Facials provided in a medi-spa by a medical doctor or nurse, or at an upscale day spa, will typically have higher average prices, as will facials in more expensive parts of the country.
- European facial: Typically lasts 60-90 minutes. Includes steaming (often with warmed towels), cleansing and examination of the skin, exfoliation, extraction of blackheads and clearing clogged pores, application of masks specific to the skin’s need (anti-aging, etc.), application of serums and moisturizers, and massage.
- Microdermabrasion: 30-90 minutes. Microdermabrasion sloughs off the dead skin on the surface level, revealing brighter skin underneath. The practitioner uses a small, motorized tool that polishes your skin with a diamond tip or stream of very fine crystals. Usually the treatment is preceded by a thorough cleansing. After the microdermabrasion, the practitioner cleans away any remaining dead skin, and then applies a hydrating mask or moisturizers.
- Back facial: About 60 minutes. Includes a thorough cleansing, exfoliation, extraction of blackheads and clearing of clogged pores, an acne-fighting mask, and mini-massage to keep the skin on the back clear and acne-free.
- Gentleman’s facial: 50-75 minutes. Treats areas that most affect men. Includes cleansing, assessment of skin type, exfoliation and extraction to address razor burn or ingrown facial hairs, a hydrating mask, and a facial massage followed with moisturizer.
- Jessner’s peel: 30 minutes. This is a light chemical peel that removes the surface layer of the skin to create a smoother look and feel.
- More powerful peels are also available, typically at a higher cost.
Many massage therapists operate their businesses out of their own homes, though some offer mobile massages and come to your home. You should ask the massage therapist where they typically operate and if they are making any special accommodations to better observe the CDC’s guidelines for social distancing.
If you must cancel or delay your massage therapy appointment due to COVID-19, consider asking the therapist if they can offer massage techniques or lessons via video chat, email or some other digital format. You can also ask if it's possible to buy gift cards that can be used at a later time.
Ask massage therapists near you about the possibility of remote services. You might come across profiles that state the therapist is offering remote services such as lessons and techniques you can do on your own, with a friend or with a partner.
A mini facial treatment is an abbreviated version of a classic European facial treatment. Typically provided in 30 minutes, it’s short enough to complete during a lunch break but long enough to feel luxurious. Before any treatment begins, most providers will do an assessment of your skin to determine the appropriate products to use, such as anti-acne or anti-aging. During a mini facial treatment, the licensed esthetician or cosmetologist will prepare your face by gently wrapping it in warm, moist towels. The heat of the warm towels loosens the pores of your skin, readying it for cleansing and treatment. After steaming, the skin care provider will cleanse your skin, then apply an exfoliant, often a fruit enzyme exfoliant. Next, the provider will apply the appropriate serums and moisturizers for your skin type, and often give a small massage. Mini facial treatments are more cost-effective than traditional facials, which typically last 60-90 minutes. They’re the perfect splurge when you need an affordable pampering session.
A facial mask is used for therapeutic cosmetic purposes. A facial mask can be applied at home or by professionals during a facial at a spa or medi-spa. There are many different types of facial masks, all with different ingredients and applications to help you achieve your skin care goals. The active ingredients can help guide your choice. If you want to reduce oil and clear your pores, a clay mask with bentonite or French green clay may suit your purposes. For deep hydration, a mask with a humectant like hyaluronic acid will keep skin dewy and fresh.
There are many ways to apply facial masks. Always start by thoroughly washing your face before applying a mask. Pre-made sheet masks are draped loosely over your face to allow your skin to absorb the ingredients while you relax. The sheet mask can usually be removed within 15-30 minutes. Clay masks are applied wet by hand, carefully avoiding the eyes. After the clay works its extractive magic and dries, you wash it off to reveal clear skin underneath. Moisturizing masks that are applied by hand are often only wiped off, leaving a rich layer of moisturizer to continue to nourish the skin.
Many massage therapists accept digital payments through Venmo, Apple Pay, PayPal, Venmo, Square Cash, Zelle and other online platforms. Even businesses that do not typically accept digital payments may be changing their methods to practice social distancing. Just check with your massage therapist before the appointment to see how they handle payments.
The wide variety of names, methods, techniques and technologies for facials can be confusing. The best facial for you depends on your skin care needs. If you’re aging and want to address wrinkles and sun spots, you may want a chemical peel, while for acne you may want a deep pore cleansing treatment. Consulting with a licensed esthetician, cosmetologist or dermatologist will help guide your choice. Skin care professionals specialize in assessing your skin and determining which course of treatment will help you achieve your goals. Here is a basic overview of the best facials for different outcomes:
- Reduce wrinkles: A chemical peel can help stimulate skin cell turnover, creating a fresh new layer thanks to the salicylic or glycolic acids. It’s important to work with an experienced professional when getting a chemical peel so you choose the right level for your skin type.

I hoped to get the survey report as soon as possible, After asking them, Your Survey said they would try and bring the report forward. To my surprise the report arrived after 3 working days! So very satisfied with the prompt service. The survey was concise and picked up some issues in which I was able to negotiate the house price down due to the house valuation and the report's red flags. My only criticism is that it would be good to have some photographs of the problem areas. Overall very satisfied and would wholly recommend.”
“I would definitely recommend Your Survey, they were very professional, kept in touch with me at every stage and the survey was undertaken smoothly and the completed report was returned within two days. Very impressed. Thank you!”
“I was really impressed with Your Survey. They gave me a good price and kept me well informed throughout the process. They also set decent expectations of timings. And although they had initially said it would take 5-10 days for the report, then they said 2-5 days, I had a call the same day as the survey was done to say that the report would be with me shortly. The report was clear and also had photos of anything they have highlighted. Thank you so much for good service throughout!”
“We were very pleased with the prompt service, booking appointment, prompt survey and prompt survey report within 5 working days. The Quality of the report was good and the cost of the service was very competitive. We didn't need a specialist survey as the building was fairly modern and we are very satisfied that we can make a good decision on buying the property and now we will go ahead with the solicitors searches. Thank you for your good work.”
“Oh yes very easy to arrange and amazingly quick the survey was carried out next day. Received the completed survey report within 3 days. Very comprehensive with an easy to follow system which assess problems to be delt with problems which require immediate action and no problems found with a colour system and numbers
Very pleased with the survey the speed of getting it done and the great price”
“The survey was very comprehensive and outlined some important issues with the house which could be addressed as soon as possible.
The survey was very well priced. The only improvement there could have been was to be notified that the survey had been completed successfully and the estimated survey return. The survey arrived around 5 days later which wasn’t as long as some reviews had stated.
Overall, for the competitive price I would recommend this service.” | 563 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00688.warc.gz | 0.993041 |

Since I was little, tea in our family always had some kinds of spice in it. Sometimes it’s just freshly ground ginger and sometimes it’s a mixture of whole spices like cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, ginger, and a number of other warm spices. This spicy tea is especially welcome during the winter months but I have never seen any Indian family making a cup of chai with ice, even in the hot summers! It’s customary, and also well-liked by every Indian, to drink a hot cup of tea whether it is summer or winter.
This daily tea that is made in every Indian household, as well as in street tea stalls, recently became a luxurious gourmet beverage in the Western countries, where it has been named “Chai Tea”. In other words, all you’re saying is “Tea Tea”!
But what is this hugely popular tea drink and how is it made? It seems like a very difficult recipe that takes devoted hours in the kitchen. But in reality making a splendid cup of steaming or iced Chai is nothing more than just brewing regular black tea (either loose or tea bag) with some highly aromatic whole spices and then adding whole creamy milk and sugar.
Whole milk and sugar – two big taboos in today’s health-conscious world – are actually the heroes in making a successful cup of Chai. The whole milk gives it the authentic creaminess and the sugar intensifies the aroma of the whole spices. Now, as with everything, there can be alternative ways of making chai to suit your taste buds while taking care of your health. But, that said, you will sacrifice the authentic chai that is sold on Indian streets. The choice is always yours!
Although using the whole spices in making chai is always preferred, we have made a Chai Spice blend that can give you the same flavor as the whole spices, and the bonus is a shorter brewing time. Following is a recipe where you will see how you can make an authentic, tasty cup of Chai Tea using our convenient Chai Spice blend. Enjoy!
3/4 cup boiling water
1 black tea bag OR 1 rounded tsp. loose black tea
Sweetener to taste
1/8 - 1/4 tsp Curry's Chai Latte Spice
1/4 cup whole milk **
1/8 tsp Curry's Chai Latte Spice (to sprinkle)
1. Pour boiling water over the tea, sweetener, and Chai Spice in a saucepan. Cover and brew for 7-9 minutes.
2. Pour in the milk and heat the tea to just under boiling point.
3. Strain the tea into a cup or remove the tea bag. Sprinkle a little Chai Spice for added flavor.
For Iced Chai Latte: Cool the Chai Tea (as made above) and pour over ice.
** You can use 2% milk, but you'll sacrifice the creaminess of the tea. You could also use alternate milk to make the tea dairy-free.

|Laura Nyro chronology|
It was the last album Nyro released during her lifetime, and she died from ovarian cancer less than two months after its release. The two-disc set combines highlights from all of her studio albums, as well as some rarities and previously unreleased live songs recorded in 1993 and 1994. Music journalist Paul Zollo's interview with Nyro makes up the liner notes, along with a Nyro biography and song details.
Stoned Soul Picnic: The Best of Laura Nyro came about in 1996 when the Legacy imprint of Columbia Records requested a single-disc overview of Nyro's work. However, that would have concentrated on her earlier material, and Nyro was adamant that a full career overview should be achieved.
Nyro oversaw the production of the album, and made the track selection her final artistic project. The first disc collects some of her finest and most well-known material from 1966 to 1970, while the second disc concentrates on her later career.

When Lan Zhan had reeled Wei Ying in, Wei Ying went easily, went where Lan Zhan put him, happy to let Lan Zhan do what he wanted. He always does. He wonders what it would be like if he didn’t, if he pushed back. What would change.
He knows the answer: nothing.
Even at his strongest, without his core, he’s no match for Lan Zhan.
“You don’t have to stop,” Wei Ying says, wondering.
“I am not stopping,” Lan Zhan says, and if anything that’s true, he’s been fucking him steadily harder. Rich, bruising thrusts that drive Wei Ying up the bed, that scrape the mattress across his face.
“No, I --” Wei Ying loses track for a moment, breath tightening as Lan Zhan fucks him. “Even if I wanted you to. I couldn’t make you.”
“Wei Ying,” Lan Zhan says, threatening, and his hands clench on Wei Ying’s hips.
“You’re so much stronger than me.” So strong. Wei Ying's seen Lan Zhan do handstands, seen him fight off armies, his arms never wavering. “There’s nothing I could do. I could fight you as hard as I could and it wouldn’t even make a dent, would it? Not even a scratch.” He kicks out a leg, a thought exercise, really, feels it connect. The force of it barely jars Wei Ying’s heel, hardly any impact at all. The best kick he can muster isn’t even half as strong as the grip Lan Zhan has on his hips. A grip that’s going to bruise, Wei Ying thinks. He’s so fragile that even this is too much for his body to handle.
Lan Zhan slaps Wei Ying's leg down, a sharp, resounding sound. It smarts, but not as much as Wei Ying's face burns. That kick is all he can manage and Lan Zhan treats it like it’s of less concern than a fly buzzing around his face. The only challenge he can offer, like the barest nuisance.
Wei Ying picks his leg up, getting the knee back under him to try again. As soon as he readies himself to kick, knee lifting just slightly, Lan Zhan presses forward, his hips to Wei Ying's ass, and drives him flat into the bed. It forces the breath from Wei Ying’s lungs. He struggles to take air back in, like Lan Zhan doesn’t want him to have it, doesn’t want Wei Ying to have anything else inside of him other than his cock.
He’s pinned, the implacable weight of Lan Zhan holding him down against the bed. Lan Zhan’s never stopped fucking him, and he doesn’t stop now, rolling his hips against Wei Ying’s. The thrusts are less harsh in this position, but what they’ve lost in force, they’ve made up in inescapability. There’s nowhere he can go with Lan Zhan pressed against him.
Lan Zhan’s weight is a real presence on his back, blanketing him. Wei Ying gasps and Lan Zhan places his mouth on the knob of Wei Ying’s spine. It’s a wet kiss at first, and then Lan Zhan presses down with his teeth, raising his hips and driving Wei Ying’s face further into the bed. The thrust inside is a relief, the spreading of Lan Zhan’s weight along his body lets Wei Ying lift his head, just a little, just enough to sip at the air. Wei Ying tries to turn his head but Lan Zhan worries his teeth, keeps Wei Ying’s face straight down. Even this small freedom, this small movement, is denied him. It hurts.
“Lan Zhan,” Wei Ying whispers, sound produced by moving lips and struggling tongue, a suggestion more than the words itself. He feels a sob working its way up his throat and his chest hitches.
Lan Zhan pulls out. Wei Ying can’t do anything to stop that either, trying to clench down on him as much as he can to hold him inside. Not enough. He grabs with his hands, weak clutching motions that Lan Zhan can easily evade.
Then Wei Ying is alone. He draws himself forward on the mattress with his hands, to get some distance, to get away, maybe. He makes it an arm-length, maybe half of one before Lan Zhan is back, one arm a bar underneath Wei Ying’s armpit, across his chest, tugging. Wei Ying scrabbles to find something to hold onto, but there’s nothing, there’s just Lan Zhan’s arm pulling him up from the mattress, pulling him up until his knees are back under him, and then pulling him more until he’s falling, he’s going to fall.
His shoulder blades hit the firm wall of Lan Zhan’s chest and Lan Zhan’s hands are all over him, tweaking his nipples, sliding down his ribs. Lan Zhan presses one hand between Wei Ying’s cock and belly, the soft hair sweat-slicked. “You’re so hard for me,” Lan Zhan mutters, lips pressed to Wei Ying’s ear.
Wei Ying’s breath hitches again, and the tears that have pooled in his eyes fall. One splashes on Lan Zhan’s forearm, still cradling his stomach.
He squeezes his eyes shut, only to feel a sense of vertigo as Lan Zhan lifts him again, turning this time so they’re face-to-face. Wei Ying’s legs are spread around Lan Zhan’s thighs, too weak to usefully cling. It’s the cage of Lan Zhan’s arms that keeps him upright at all.
Wei Ying opens his eyes and Lan Zhan is staring at him, like he’s looking into Wei Ying, like his gaze could tear Wei Ying apart.
“If you’re going to cry,” Lan Zhan says, “then I want to see it.”
Wei Ying presses his lips together. He won’t give him the satisfaction.
Lan Zhan lifts Wei Ying up like he weighs nothing, holds him one-handed. Wei Ying scratches at Lan Zhan’s chest, mean, trying to break the skin, leave a mark, some sign that he’s here, that he’s not just a plaything for Lan Zhan to toss around and slide onto his dick like he doesn’t care if Wei Ying can take it. Lan Zhan ignores him, ignores the whine that comes from deep in Wei Ying’s chest, pushed out by the inexorable heft of Lan Zhan’s dick stretching him wide, sliding back where it belongs. He’s so full.
When Lan Zhan is back inside, Wei Ying braces himself. He waits to get jostled, to have his teeth knocked against the roof of his mouth, to get fucked so hard his eyes roll and his head falls back he becomes a mindless, drooling thing. He waits for Lan Zhan to take him out of his mind because if he can’t do anything, if Lan Zhan controls him so much, then the least he can do is make Wei Ying not have to think about it. Not have to think at all.
But nothing happens.
“Ride,” Lan Zhan says.
Wei Ying gasps. He shakes his head.
Lan Zhan nudges his hips up once, a reminder, as if Wei Ying could ever forget where he is, or how Lan Zhan has him.
“You can,” Wei Ying tries, and swallows the break in his own voice, “you can do whatever you want to me, but you can’t make me do anything.” Lan Zhan can’t be stopped, but Wei Ying controls his own body.
“I think I can,” Lan Zhan says, and Wei Ying will not look at him, does not want to see the certainty in his eyes. “I think I can make you do whatever I want.” Lan Zhan spreads his thighs and Wei Ying wobbles in his lap as he tries to accommodate, thighs tensing. It’s a small bounce, but he still whimpers. Maybe that counts, maybe that small shake was enough and Lan Zhan will be satisfied. Wei Ying is so spread now, so open. Lan Zhan kisses him, wet and hard and consuming. He holds Wei Ying’s face still with both of his hands, like he hasn’t already proven that Wei Ying can’t get away, and takes what he wants.
Lan Zhan pulls back, leans back on his hands. If Wei Ying wanted to get away, this would be the moment. Except. Before he can think it, Lan Zhan puts one hand around Wei Ying’s ankle. The grip is firm, but not bruising. But it’s enough. If Wei Ying pushed up, Lan Zhan could drag him back down, bring him crashing to the ground.
“I told you to ride.”
Lan Zhan’s kiss has brought him back to himself though, and Wei Ying’s eyes spark. Lan Zhan sees it and his gaze sharpens.
“Very well,” Lan Zhan says. He sits back up all the way, getting into Wei Ying’s space, imposing. He pinches Wei Ying, hard, on the ass.
Wei Ying yelps, jerks away, feels the small slide of Lan Zhan’s cock in him. Lan Zhan lets go and Wei Ying holds the position. There’s a strain in his thighs, trying to stay still like this, but he can take it. His ass is more exposed now, lifted, and Lan Zhan pinches him again, right on the soft curve where his left ass cheek meets his thigh. He yelps again, lifts himself higher, but his legs can’t support him, so weak, and he falls back down.
“Yes,” Lan Zhan says, “like that.”
Wei Ying’s face burns. He tucks it in against Lan Zhan’s throat.
Lan Zhan’s voice is gentle when he asks, “Do you need further instruction?”
Yes, Wei Ying thinks. Pinch me again, bruise me more, make it so any time I try to sit down, I can’t, so that everyone knows how easy it was for you to take me, to control me. The bite on the back of his neck throbs. He imagines what that could feel like all over, to feel his heart beat in the rhythm of Lan Zhan’s teeth, his cruel fingers.
Instead, he rides, an answer in itself. He keeps his face tucked into Lan Zhan’s neck, as he starts to roll his hips, a gentle rocking motion that serves to keep Lan Zhan deep inside of him, holding him open. I can do this, Wei Ying thinks.
He thinks that until Lan Zhan pulls his hair, hard, forcing Wei Ying’s neck back, forcing his spine to arch. Wei Ying’s hands barely come up in time to grab onto Lan Zhan’s shoulders. “I told you I wanted to see,” Lan Zhan says.
See what? Wei Ying wonders.
Wei Ying keeps up the motion, legs working harder now, a rise and fall. It’s a good rhythm, he thinks, steady. It will get Lan Zhan there, he knows.
Lan Zhan pinches him again, close to his crease, and it stings, stings so much.
“Lan Zhan!” Wei Ying cries out. “I was doing it! I was!”
“Yes,” Lan Zhan says. Then he raises an expectant eyebrow. Wei Ying stopped moving when Lan Zhan pinched him, but he understands Lan Zhan’s message: the reprieve is over. He starts to move his hips again, hopes it’s enough for Lan Zhan to be satisfied.
He can’t believe Lan Zhan would do this, why would he do that? His Lan Zhan who kissed him softly where his hair meets his forehead, who worked Wei Ying open for so long, dripping with oil, Lan Zhan rubbing it into his ass, his thighs, his cock, until he was boneless and breathless and so relaxed. How could that be the same Lan Zhan who pinched him because he felt like it, who held him down and fucked him without caring if he was dying?
Wei Ying starts to cry, silent, nothing to distract from the loud slap of skin-on-skin whenever he lets his body fall limp back onto Lan Zhan’s cock. He works himself up again, scraping Lan Zhan’s cock against his insides, tears falling down his cheeks, off his chin, onto his chest.
Wei Ying thinks, surely, surely that Lan Zhan, the one who kisses and pets him, that Lan Zhan would stop if he asked, if he really couldn’t take it. But then he thinks, maybe he would, but he doesn’t have to.
Lan Zhan doesn’t have to do anything he doesn’t want.
Lan Zhan, supposed distinguished gentleman, licks him. He drags his tongue up from Wei Ying’s collarbone, up his neck, across his cheek. His tongue is warm and it makes Wei Ying feel wetter, his whole cheek soaked with it. Lan Zhan licks up further, swirling his tongue on Wei Ying’s temple, closing his lips right at the corner of Wei Ying’s eye.
Then, Lan Zhan kisses him. It tastes salty. He realises: Lan Zhan is making him drink his own tears. Wei Ying jerks back, but Lan Zhan is ready. His hand cups the back of Wei Ying’s head, keeping their lips pressed together. Lan Zhan’s hips cant up and now that they’re so close together, each thrust presses the head of Wei Ying’s cock into Lan Zhan’s taut stomach. It slides against the muscles there, sticking with the pre-cum that Wei Ying is leaking. How could Lan Zhan want this? Wei Ying, who can’t take Lan Zhan’s cock without crying, who makes their kisses taste like salt water. Lan Zhan keeps kissing him as Wei Ying swallows and moans and takes Lan Zhan’s cock and rubs off against his stomach because nothing is ever enough.
Stars expand behind Wei Ying’s eyes as he comes, sobbing harder with the force of it. His body shakes as Lan Zhan holds him down, keeps him ridden and full to the brim. He’s still trembling when Lan Zhan lets him fall. “Lets” is the wrong word. When Lan Zhan throws him to the bed, his cock slipping out of Wei Ying like a punch to Wei Ying’s solar plexus.
Wei Ying bounces once, and not again because Lan Zhan is on top of him, crawling over him clumsy as he arranges Wei Ying’s arms, legs, gets them spread and lifted so Lan Zhan can get between them, shove in with no finesse at all. Lan Zhan fucks him hard, and fast, and sloppy. It’s too much, too rough when Wei Ying is this sensitive, when every drag of the fat head of Lan Zhan's cock feels like it’s sanding something away inside of him, like it’s turning Wei Ying into nothing but a sheath for Lan Zhan to rut into.
Wei Ying’s hands come up to push Lan Zhan back. Flat on his chest. “Too -- it’s -- I can’t, I can’t take it,” Wei Ying says. He shoves as hard as he can, knuckles going white from the effort and Lan Zhan moves not at all. He puts new nail marks on the scratches he left earlier and Lan Zhan’s muscles don’t even tense.
“You can,” Lan Zhan says. “You can take anything.” Lan Zhan pins his upper arms to the bed, hands curling and squeezing. His thumbs dig into the soft flesh, yet another place Lan Zhan is marking him.
And Wei Ying does take it, no option to do anything else. He takes Lan Zhan’s harsh thrusts, the grip on his arms, the soft grunts that sound punched out of him every time he bottoms out. The ones that mean he’s close. Lan Zhan’s rhythm, already irregular since he pushed inside, loses all coherency. It becomes one endless thrust in and if Lan Zhan wasn’t holding him still, Wei Ying would be sliding up the bed. But it’s so easy for Lan Zhan to hold him, and Lan Zhan does, slamming into him an uncountable number of times more before he presses in as far as he can get, jerking inside. Wei Ying moans.
After, Lan Zhan curls into Wei Ying gently. Lan Zhan rolls Wei Ying onto his side, scooping him up to hold him, a solid line against the small curve of his back. His body is a blanket, it surrounds and warms him.
“I’m sticky,” Wei Ying complains, wiggling into Lan Zhan, pressing back to feel the sharp ache on his ass, the deeper one inside. “You should take responsibility.”
Wei Ying feels Lan Zhan nod against the back of his neck, nose rubbing into his hairline.
Lan Zhan gathers him up into his arms and Wei Ying hums, presses his face into Lan Zhan’s neck and this time Lan Zhan lets Wei Ying, lets Wei Ying burrow in bring his hands up to play with the soft hairs that Lan Zhan grows right behind his ears.
He wonders what else Lan Zhan would let him do. | 4,053 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00694.warc.gz | 0.98033 |

In his morning conference, the president said he will bid again, from scratch, the fiber optic trunk network of the Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) to bring connectivity to the entire country since currently only a quarter of the national territory It is covered.
“That fiber optic line, which is around 26 thousand kilometers, will be tendered and, as consideration, the company or companies that obtain the concession will have, among other things, to offer free Internet on roads, public squares, hospitals , in schools and a quantity of resources for the maintenance of the facilities “.
He explained that the previous tender was suspended because “since the Telecommunications Reform, the problem that we are interested in was not contemplated or has not been solved: connectivity. There was that reform, like the energy and the others, and it turns out that the country has a great delay in connectivity. ”
“Only 25% of the territory has connectivity. Only in 25% of the national territory can talk by mobile phone. In 75% there is no communication. So, the question is: Why was this issue omitted in the Reformation?
Fortunately, the president said “we have this line of the Federal Electricity Commission – which was going to be delivered with the same criteria of serving only the populations where the market is – but the state has a social function to guarantee communication to all the Mexicans. It is a right. ”
The tender goes “from scratch” . “We are already reviewing the bases for the new tender. In a month we will be able to launch this new tender, asking for the participation of companies with state-of-the-art technology, because what matters to us is to communicate to all of Mexico. It is a commitment that even in the most remote communities you can talk. Fortunately, we have the way to do it because there is a network of the Federal Electricity Commission, “concluded the President.

Pasadena, CA 91105
Located in the heart of Old Town Pasadena, this Bachi Burger location serves up your favorites found from Las Vegas. Parking is horrible at times with limited street parking, but a few parking lots are available in the area that require payment. The restaurant was around half-capacity when we arrived, and we were seated near the front of the restaurant. A server took our drink order while we reviewed the menu.
Today, we ordered the Ox Tail Chili Cheese Fries, Banh-Mi Burger, and Miyagi-San Burger. The Ox Tail Fries were topped with a fried egg that went perfectly mixed in with their fresh chili and garlic aioli. Jalapenos add heat to the savory dish. Each bite of the fries were filled with savory goodness and adequate amount of meat. The Banh-Mi burger came with similar ingredients as a banh-mi sandwich with the addition of a burger patty. Unlike the last banh-mi burger ordered in Las Vegas, there seemed to be more ginger in this burger. The meat was fresh and well seasoned. The Miyagi-San burger was huge and came with onion rings and fried egg on top of a delicious Wagyu beef patty. Strips of bacon accentuate the burger and added another layer of deliciousness. Both burgers were huge and were hard to finish, especially after eating the Ox Tail Fries.
Overall, Bachi Burger serves up innovative delicious burgers that are worth trying. Prices are a bit high for burgers ranging from $9-$26. Service was a bit slower as we were nearing the end of our meal. If you are in the area, you should give Bachi Burger a try. They now have a few more locations now with two in the LA area and three in the Vegas area. | 378 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00705.warc.gz | 0.979617 |

SBI was the first one in all banks to introduce the home loan scheme which was linked to repo rate of Reserve bank of India. The scheme was launched in the month of July.
A Twitter user @yashuk22 asked about converting the existing home loan to the repo rate linked product on the twitter handle and also the charges and fees which would be required in the process. SBI responded: “Kindly note that RLLR based home loan scheme have been withdrawn. You can get the home loan migrated to MCLR based home loan.” RLLR refers to repo-linked lending rate.
The withdrawal of repo rate linked home loan scheme from SBI came before the RBI’s mandate to banks to link new floating rate home, auto loans with external benchmarks, from October 1.
A SBI representative cleared on it that if a person has already taken this scheme then he would be eligible to continue under the scheme.
Earlier Rajnish Kumar who is chairman of the State bank of india, said that bank will ask for the clarifications from the RBI that is the loan can be offered at fixed rates and can later be changed to floating rates or not. | 292 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00693.warc.gz | 0.982085 |

Breast cancer cells can cut and paste genes from one place to another to create dangerous new combinations of DNA, a Cancer Research UK study reveals1.
For the first time, researchers have identified a particular cut and paste job - known as a chromosome rearrangement - which occurs repeatedly in breast tumours and seems to play an important role in their development.
The rearrangement moves the position of a gene called heregulin, creating hybrid DNA that may have powerful cancer-causing effects. Scientists believe heregulin could be an important target for future anti-cancer drugs.
Scientists funded by Cancer Research UK at the Hutchison/MRC Research Centre, University of Cambridge, collaborated on the study with a team at the Institut Paoli-Calmettes in Marseilles.
Researchers labelled genes with brightly coloured fluorescent dye and noticed that the heregulin gene had been cut from a chromosome (one of the cell's bundles of genetic material) and in its place another piece of DNA pasted in.
They found the rearrangement in cells from five different breast tumours and two pancreatic tumours, suggesting that it is not just a chance event, but may be playing an important role in cancer's development.
Cancer Research UK's Dr Paul Edwards, of the Hutchison/MRC Research Centre, says: "The chromosomes of cancer cells are often unstable and parts of them frequently get swapped around. We can see this by labelling different chromosomes with different colours.
"What we've found is that in breast cancer the rearrangement of chromosomes isn't random, but that a particular rearrangement happens over and over again, suggesting that it plays a key role in the development of the disease."
In healthy tissue, heregulin plays an important role in encouraging cells to grow and divide. Cutting and pasting the gene to a new position may make it over-active, or make it active in the wrong kind of cell, sending the growth of cancer cells spiralling out of control. Or it could create a hybrid gene, with potent cancer-causing properties.
Dr Edwards adds: "Moving bits of gene around can cause real problems. Understanding how our genes can be mixed around during the development of cancer is crucial if we are to identify new targets for anti-cancer drugs."
Professor Robert Souhami, Cancer Research UK's Director of Clinical Research, says: "If a genetic fault happens again and again in cancer, it's an indication that the fault is making a real contribution to the disease's development."
He adds: "Identifying such cancer-causing errors, and working out how they might be contributing to cancer, is an exciting area of research that may bring us new targets for anti-cancer drugs."

Notes to Editor
Chromosomes in cancer cells often get broken and when the bits are rejoined, bits of different chromosomes may get swapped over. Chromosomes are bundles of genes, and sometimes the rejoining sticks parts of two unrelated genes together to create a completely new, dangerous gene, which can cause cells to proliferate.
Heregulin protein is normally made, when needed, by the supporting tissue of the breast as a signal to breast cells to grow. The chromosome rearrangement results in the breast cells making heregulin themselves, causing them to divide at the wrong time. | 717 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-34/segments/1534221211719.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20180817045508-20180817065508-00582.warc.gz | 0.932248 |

Invasion of Sennacherib. 1In the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, went up against all the fortified cities of Judah and captured them.* a 2From Lachish the king of Assyria sent his commander with a great army to King Hezekiah in Jerusalem. When he stopped at the conduit of the upper pool, on the highway of the fuller’s field, 3there came out to him the master of the palace, Eliakim, son of Hilkiah, and Shebna the scribe, and the chancellor, Joah, son of Asaph. 4The commander said to them, “Tell Hezekiah: Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria: On what do you base this trust of yours? 5Do you think mere words substitute for strategy and might in war? In whom, then, do you place your trust, that you rebel against me? 6Do you trust in Egypt, that broken reed of a staff which pierces the hand of anyone who leans on it? That is what Pharaoh, king of Egypt, is to all who trust in him.b 7Or do you say to me: It is in the LORD, our God, we trust? Is it not he whose high places and altars Hezekiah has removed,* commanding Judah and Jerusalem, ‘Worship before this altar’?c
8“Now, make a wager with my lord, the king of Assyria: I will give you two thousand horses, if you are able to put riders on them. 9How then can you turn back even a captain, one of the least servants of my lord, trusting, as you do, in Egypt for chariots and horses? 10Did I come up to destroy this land without the LORD? The LORD himself said to me, Go up and destroy that land!”d
11Then Eliakim and Shebna and Joah said to the commander, “Please speak to your servants in Aramaic; we understand it. Do not speak to us in the language of Judah within earshot of the people who are on the wall.”*
12But the commander replied, “Was it to your lord and to you that my lord sent me to speak these words? Was it not rather to those sitting on the wall, who, with you, will have to eat their own excrement and drink their own urine?” 13Then the commander stepped forward and cried out in a loud voice in the language of Judah, “Listen to the words of the great king, the king of Assyria. 14Thus says the king: Do not let Hezekiah deceive you, for he cannot rescue you. 15And do not let Hezekiah induce you to trust in the LORD, saying, ‘The LORD will surely rescue us, and this city will not be handed over to the king of Assyria.’ 16Do not listen to Hezekiah, for thus says the king of Assyria:
Make peace with me
and surrender to me!
Eat, each of you, from your vine,
each from your own fig tree.
Drink water, each from your own well,e
17until I arrive and take you
to a land like your own,
A land of grain and wine,
a land of bread and vineyards.
18Do not let Hezekiah seduce you by saying, ‘The LORD will rescue us.’ Has any of the gods of the nations rescued his land from the power of the king of Assyria?f 19Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim? Where are the gods of Samaria? Have they saved Samaria from my power?g 20Who among all the gods of these lands ever rescued their land from my power, that the LORD should save Jerusalem from my power?” 21But they remained silent and did not answer at all, for the king’s command was, “Do not answer him.”
22Then the master of the palace, Eliakim, son of Hilkiah, Shebna the scribe, and the chancellor Joah, son of Asaph, came to Hezekiah with their garments torn, and reported to him the words of the commander.
* [36:1–39:8] Except for 38:9–20 (Hezekiah’s prayer of thanksgiving), this historical appendix describing the siege, etc., is paralleled in 2 Kgs 18:13–20:19, which, however, has certain details proper to itself. The events are also reflected in the cuneiform inscriptions of Sennacherib.
* [36:1] The occasion for this Assyrian attack was Hezekiah’s attempt to reject Judah’s status as vassal to Assyria, relying on help from Egypt, a course of action condemned by Isaiah (see notes on 28:15, 18; 28:16; 29:7–8; 30:1–17; etc.). 2 Kgs 19:14–16 reports that Hezekiah surrendered to the Assyrians and paid the tribute imposed on him—a report omitted in the Isaiah text.
* [36:7] The Assyrians assert that Hezekiah’s removal of the high places and altars (unofficial sanctuaries) was taken by the Lord as an insult. They declare to Jerusalem’s emissaries that the city therefore no longer has a right to the Lord’s protection and that they are the ones who truly carry out his will (cf. v. 10).
* [36:11] The emissaries of King Hezekiah ask that the conversation be carried on in Aramaic, not in Hebrew, for they fear the effect of the Assyrian claims upon the morale of the people.

Nick Cavataro, Head Coach of the Iona College Men’s and Women’s swimming programs has been kind enough to answer some questions for this edition of Coaches’ Confidential. Coach Cavataro is in his 34th season as head coach of the Gaels, who are part of the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC). His wildly successful tenure at Iona College has been highlighted by leading swimmers to NCAA-qualifying swims, numerous conference championships, and Senior National swims.
Coach Cavataro also had quite the collegiate swimming career during his undergraduate studies at Manhattan College. He shared with me that after graduating from college in 1977, he was interviewed for the Iona job by basketball legend and then-AD, Jim Valvano. Jimmy V told Coach Cavataro to do three things as head coach of the swim team: don’t let anyone drown, keep the water blue, and win a couple of meets. 34 years later, and Nick Cavatoro has maintained his promise with the coaching legend.
Read on to learn more about Iona’s Nick Cavataro:
First dual meet opponent as a head coach?
I don’t remember it was 34 years ago, I do remember going 0-12 my first year and the joke was we improved when we went 0-11 the next year, we then went on a streak of four titles in a row and five titles in six years. I think I have over 300 combined men’s and women’s dual meet wins.
What was your major in college?
Economics at Manhattan College
Favorite facility to compete?
In the Northeast, Blodgett at Harvard is great! In the MAAC, our Hynes Pool with Bagpipers playing is electric and in the USA, nothing beats IUPUI.
What was the last book you read?
Tom Clancy’s Threat Vector. Big Clancy fan, I have read all his books and I will miss his work
What has been your most memorable swimming moment as a head coach?
I have been fortunate to have had many. A couple of standouts include winning the 1993 Metro Atlantic Athletic Championship Men’s title in the last race by a point at our home pool as well as our men winning the 400-Free Relay at the 2014 MAAC Championships in Buffalo for a new school record.
What is your favorite set to give your swimmers?
Depending on where we are in the season we will often set up some “split group” best effort 100’s where we go six at a time from a dive on 3-6 minutes and set up matches and we really get some great efforts and see some kids really step up and surprise you.
Most embarrassing coaching moment?
I think it was back in 1985 when we were swimming William Paterson of New Jersey and we had a home meet at the Iona Pool. We had to take up and down the backstroke flags for diving and somehow when they went back up after the first diving event, the flags were old and shifted on the cable. The WPC coach went up to the referee and pointed out that the rulebook states there must be three flags of alternating colors over the lanes and there was not. We had gone 1-2-3 in the race and ended up forfeiting the points and losing the meet..
What has been the most valuable piece of information you’ve learned from coaching?
Input will always equal results. Good input, good results. Poor input, poor results.
Describe your relationship with swimming growing up.
I did not start competitive swimming until summer league at 13 and was fortunate to get some good coaching and be around good swimmers that enjoyed challenging themselves during workouts. I did a lot of chasing and dragging through high school and was fortunate enough to get involved with some good teachers who really commanded the deck and the attention of swimmers.
When did you first realize you wanted to be a coach?
My first coaching job was with a summer club at a lake. We had to swim between two rafts and couldn’t see more than six inches in front of you or stand on the bottom. That situation forced you to be innovative with sets and drills. We were forced to develop teaching methods and had a lot of good results that started in 1975.
Favorite/most useful drill you have your swimmers do?
We have a lot of variations of K-R-L-S (Kick, Right, Left, Swim) for all strokes including SRKL, SLBR (stroke Right, Breathe Left and Stroke Left, Breathe Right for rotation.
Describe your coaching philosophy in 3 words.
Effort, Work, Win
As a spectator (or coach), who has been your favorite swimmer to watch (any level)?
I remember being at the 1980 NCAA Championship Meet at Harvard and everyone stopped to watch David Berkoff and his backstroke underwaters. One of my most memorable spectator moments was at the Montreal 1976 Olympics and watching Brian Goodell and Bobby Hackett go 1-2 in the 1500 with Australian Stephen Holland all under world record time and within 3 seconds of each other the entire way. It was the loudest pool I have ever heard!
Personally, in 1997 I had the chance to work with one of the USA’s best coaches, Joshua Stern at an Olympic Training Center for a USA Swimming Select Camp with 16-year olds. The camp featured Eric Vendt (a future Olympian) and one of my club swimmers John Waters, who went on to be a NCAA finalist with Stanford. The two battled stroke for stroke every day for six workouts in three days at amazing intensity.
At Iona a few years back we had two MAAC Champion breaststrokers Jamie Manser and Chris Yacobacci, their season long breaststroke sets were unmatched and they hold our 100-yard records.
Are there any individuals who have directly-influenced your coaching style?
I remember going to an Eastern States Clinic in Valley Forge in the early 1980’s and hearing a Frank Keefe presentation. It started with a booming “If the water is standing still for more than 30 seconds in a workout, you are wasting time”. I think about that every day I prep a workout.
Where would you be if you hadn’t become a coach?
I will write a book one day. I’m not sure if it will be about coaching or the people.
What are you commonly doing when you are not fulfilling your coaching duties?
My wife will tell you I’m always working, napping or trying to figure out the DVR. I am a lifelong Yankees fan and daily newspaper reader.
What has been the hardest you have ever laughed as a coach?
I remember my first college conference championship meet; the NY Metropolitan Collegiate Championships at Fordham. It was the second night and my team was in lane one; right in front of the Fordham team’s bleacher area. Columbia and Fordham were in a battle that year for the team title and seeded 1-2 in the 800-Free relay. I overhead the Fordham kids talking about how they were going to confuse Columbia and get them to false start.
What happened is that the heat quickly spread out across the pool, except for Columbia and Fordham which were stroke for stroke in the middle of the pool.
As the third and fourth swimmer for Fordham and Columbia came to the wall at the 525 turn, the Fordham team behind the blocks, all started screaming at the anchor leg to get up on the blocks, prepping for the exchange. The Columbia swimmers heard this too and were puzzled, but got up too. The next thing you know the Fordham kid is up on the blocks swinging his arms, and everyone was yelling at him getting him pumped and now the Columbia team is doing the same. The swimmers come into the wall and the Fordham swimmer winds up and stops. The Columbia swimmer does the same and dives in and almost crushes his teammate. The place went crazy!
What would you consider to be the key to becoming a successful student-athlete?
Plan, Prepare and commit.
What are you most excited for in the upcoming season?
It is all about Conference Championships!
Favorite dryland activity?
Our deck stations are always productive and seeing our kids rope climb and make it for the first time!
What has been your favorite “toy” to use with your swimmers during practice (useful or dud)?
We are big fans of FINIS strapless paddles.
What would you consider a “fun” practice?
I mentioned the split group sprints. We will also do challenge relays and surgical tubing always gets the group going!
Favorite inspirational quote?
Old Italian proverb, “After the game, the king and the pawn go into the same box.”
Do you go into a season knowing the type of team atmosphere you want to cultivate, or do you take a more adaptive approach in creating team culture?
“Let us train our minds to desire what the situation demands”. Seneca

It’s the first time I’ve reviewed a DVD of an anime series after doing a first impression review of the fansub. Pretty weird. I stopped watching the fansub after like the first episode anyway, so most of the DVD was new to me!
DVD Cover Blurb:
Insurrection will not be tolerated! To prove that point, the government has set a big, bad bomb to blast the planet Graceland right out of the sky. To make matters worse, The king is dead. However, before the Pirate King Bruce died, he hid billions in stolen loot on the doomed planet. Now, the galaxies most infamous criminal – a mystery man known only as “Mister” – has busted out of the slammer to get his hands on the booty before it’s too late!
Along with King Bruce’s daughter and his misfit band of “Coyotes,” Mister sidesteps government goons, dodges a hotty investigator on his tail and fends off a dozen Gothic Lolita androids programmed to kill, kill, KILL!
I don’t know what the government has against Elvis, but I guess blowing up a planet called Graceland is a necessary evil… Many of the feelings I had for my first impressions of this anime still hold true. It’s a total action show where you can let your brain just cruise along and enjoy. The first, second, and third episodes contain a considerable amount of action. The fourth is a slower exposition episode.
While I tend to criticize shows that have mindless plots, I generally do so when the show takes itself too seriously. In the case of Coyote Ragtime Show, the anime knows it’s just a fun action show. Sure, Franca gets emo sometimes, but the show never really gets that sentimental. I mean, the anime has 12 robo-goth-loli-assassin droids! How can it be serious?
Character Designs and Art:
You can check out my first impressions post for some screencaps. The art is really solid, and I especially like the 12 sisters. Okay, so the anime panders to what fans like. Nothing wrong with that.
The animation is also top notch. Like I wrote earlier, almost all of the episodes have some kind of action sequence in them, and the animation doesn’t get all crappy after the first episode. One thing that is starting to weird me out though is ufotable’s ED sequences. Rather than being “cute” claymation, they’re just “creepy” now…
Speaking of creepy, I don’t think I’m a lolicon or anything, but I seemed to notice a lot of “ass shots” of Franca. Did anyone else notice that!? How old is she supposed to be? Let’s just assume she’s an h-game character, and she’s 18 but looks 15…
The Actual DVD:
The DVD case has some glittery hologram action going on. Just thought I’d mention that! Also, the DVD itself has like, no extras. Unless you consider trailers and production art an extra. Does anyone actually look at the production art? Or the clean OP/ED sequences?
If you try and compare Coyote Ragtime Show to a more serious show like Cowboy Bebop, it’ll probably pale in comparison. Taking Coyote Ragtime Show as a random fun anime that caters to fans, it’s enjoyable. Sure, the plot is unoriginal, but the characters are fun, and stuff blows up! I just wish the 12 sisters would wiggle their fingers and say “GOTH-GOTH, LOLI-LOLI!” | 816 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00692.warc.gz | 0.934228 |

The New At-Home Painting Experience
What is Cupixel Sketch?
Cupixel’s AR Technology
Product – Cupixel Sketch
Cupixel harnesses the power of Augmented Reality (AR) to enable ANYONE to create stunning, precise, and personalized works of art. Both beginners and seasoned artists alike can create wall-worthy artwork.
Elad Katav, Cupixel CEO and founder, says, “As they age, 97% of adults lose their intrinsic drive to create art. Some are hesitant even to try. We found a solution that enables anyone, regardless of previous art experience or talent, to experience art creation. Our users get an opportunity to channel their inner-artist and experience the joy in creating and accomplishing stunning art.”
The experience begins with the Cupixel Art Box. The Box contains EVERYTHING needed to create masterful works of art.
Users simply download the free Cupixel App, which will serve as their personal Artist Assistant. Every task demonstrated is clear, and guidance is provided every step of the way.
The creative journey continues with the selection of an image. Users can choose photos from their mobile photo albums, or select an image from the fully-licensed Cupixel Gallery of classical and contemporary artists. The options are limitless.
Next, users get to use Cupixel’s specially developed art tools and AR-directed technology. AR integrates with the user’s mobile device to provide a hands-on experience that is both creative and rewarding. This experience empowers users to paint with incredible accuracy – regardless of talent and art knowledge.
Once complete, users can assemble their artwork within the Cupixel frame, allowing them to display their creation with pride.
What’s In The Box
Katav says, “We wanted to make sure the Art Box has absolutely everything people need in order to paint. Users do not need to pre-own anything. We develop and source the optimal tools for a perfect experience.”
Cupixel developed and patented art tools that are unique for this experience. Mainly the Mini Canvas. Artists spend years training and learning how to maintain proportions, how to hold their hand in front of the canvas and still paint accurately, and how to make tiny brush strokes. Cupixel, instead, broke the huge painting canvas into small Mini Canvases. This allows painting on a flat table – just like writing, so your hand doesn’t get tired. The Mini Canvas also allows focusing on a small and doable task at a time. And the best thing is, if you make a terrible mistake, you can just use a spare Mini Canvas and redo it.
To support the AR feature, Cupixel developed a set of high-quality metal Device Stand and a Pad with a mount for the Mini Canvas. Users place their device on the stand, place a Mini Canvas on the mount, and can then relax and draw accurately using AR.
Another amazing tool included in the box is a premium black metal frame. Once users finish their artwork, they easily frame it, hang it on their wall, or place it on their desk.
Elad says, “We’ve done an incredible research to understand how paints work. It’s a fascinating world. Artists spend years mastering color blending – we use technology. We provide premium quality paints in the box and teach users how to blend accurately and in a fun way. No more blending muddy-brown colors. The colors you paint look exactly like what you see on your digital device.”
And there are many other art tools in the box, high quality brushes and a brush holder. A marker, outline pencils, and even a sharpener and an eraser. Last but not least, the Art Box even contains a microfiber cleaning cloth. Katav says, “The experience is very clean but we want our users to feel safe and confident. The cleaning cloth is always handy in case something happens. We do our best to make them relax and enjoy their creative experience.”
The Creative Market
According to a survey by the Association For Creative Industries, the total size of the US creative industry in 2016 was $43 billion. The study found that 63% of US households participated in at least one creative activity within the past year.
Katav says, “Millions of coloring books appealing to adults are being sold annually. Until recently, color pencil manufacturers were not even able to meet the demand. Adult Painting Parties are on the uprise with thousands participating at different venues every week. People have a craving to create. We enable them to do so without spending thousands of dollars on equipment and art classes, in their own home, and at their own pace.”
Value for Money
Katav says, “We worked diligently to provide premium art tools at an affordable price. It would cost far more to purchase similar caliber products from an art store. We provide all the tools you need conveniently and effortlessly.”
The Cupixel Art Box contains enough art supplies to create multiple works of art. When in need of refills, users use the app to place an order for the Cupixel Refill Box. The Refill Box provides additional proprietary painting canvases, as well as an additional Cupixel frame to showcase the artwork.
Katav says, “This is just the beginning. We have many more products and technological enhancements in the pipeline: more art styles, expanded size options, and many unique creative techniques.”

“Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.” Pablo Picasso recognized that every person possesses an innate desire to be creative, but producing artwork good enough to hang on your wall? Most would say, it’s just not possible!
Cupixel Founder, Elad Katav, felt that creative urge after falling in love with a work of art he found online. “I tried to create my own artwork in a similar style, but no matter how hard I tried, I failed miserably!” Annoyed at his inability to create art he felt worthy of display, Katav began a quest to find a product capable of guiding him through the art-making process. Katav’s search validated the lack of new and innovative support in this field, and it was from this personal challenge that the concept for Cupixel was born – a revolutionary approach that makes art creation manageable, precise, and personal.
This is what Cupixel is all about – providing anyone the opportunity to paint a physical piece of art that is accurate, creative, and customizable. To share, encourage, and empower the artistic spirit within, and to continue to build upon a brand of creativity.
The Benefits of Cupixel
Our users have described the Cupixel experience as, “Meditative and relaxing”; “A fun and enjoyable evening away from the TV”; “A great way to clear the mind,” but the most gratifying of all seems to be a newfound sense of fulfillment users gain from artistic expression.
Our users demonstrate pride in their artwork, and an eagerness to share their accomplishments with family, friends and social media channels. They express amazement in the incredible accuracy of Cupixel technology, and its ability to guide them in the creation of precise, fully proportional art.
The Cupixel experience is most suitable for ages 12 years and older. The app display is big, especially when using the iPad which provides a level of comfort for the elderly. The augmented reality technology was designed for adults and young adults. Technology catering specifically to children 12 and under will be introduced in the future. | 1,665 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00698.warc.gz | 0.946077 |

Periodic Table of Storytelling? What’s a TROPE?
Could be used at least two ways:
Here’s a new resource I’ve found that you and your students may enjoy this Spring for testing their story analysis skills, learning sophisticated literary vocabulary, and even for creating stories of your own. Periodic Table of Storytelling
It may be fun one class period to have pairs of students explore the table and create Simple Story Molecules of stories already studied. If your students are movie buffs, they may recognize story elements in popular DVD’s they have seen.
In another class meeting, you could have students take the next step and select elements to include in a story they draft themselves. If they have time, encourage them to flesh out and share their stories in a couple of weeks. (Maybe first day back from Spring Break.) Could offer extra credit for preparing and sharing their stories that can be read aloud in 5-7 minutes (3-4 pages). No need to collect and grade. Instead, let the writers know they’ll be asked to conduct a Q&A following their presentation. | 241 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00700.warc.gz | 0.941671 |

Republican state Sen. Brian Birdwell said Tuesday that the Hazlewood Act had become financially unsustainable without reforms. Costs for the program climbed nearly six-fold over the past four years and topped $169 million in 2014.
More dependents have begun receiving free tuition under Hazlewood than veterans.
The new guidelines would exclude veterans who haven't been Texas residents for eight years.
Veterans or their children would also now be required to use the benefit within 15 years of leaving military service.
The Senate passed the bill 24-7. Critics say the cuts send a signal that lawmakers are reneging on promises made to veterans.
The changes have yet to clear the House. | 160 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-34/segments/1534221216051.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20180820082010-20180820102010-00502.warc.gz | 0.95268 |

The Perth Swing dance Society would like to welcome you to the long awaited new website! After more than 12 years of hard service, the ‘old’ PSDS website had gotten very long in the tooth and needed to be put into retirement.
The new website offers a guide to all the swing events we know of in Western Australia, including information about events from the PSDS, swing schools and other sources, making it far easier to know what’s coming up. It also has categories you can use to find specific events, such as workshops, free events and live music!
There are many other features of the website for you to explore, including:
- Being able to join the PSDS directly through the website (using PayPal for payments)
- Information on swing history, ettiquete, clothing etc
- Information about where to learn to swing dance in Perth
- Links to local musicians
- A responsive design- for those of you that don’t ‘talk websites’, this means the website adapts to the screen you are accessing it from, making it easy to read on a computer, phone and tablet.
We would also like to take this opportunity to thank a few individuals and companies who have helped out in the development of this website. Firstly to Lotterywest who provided us with a grant towards the cost of creating this website. To Clever Starfish who designed and built the website, with particular mention to Gregory Bruyer and Trevor Hutchison who donated some of their time to help develop (Greg) and design (Trev) the website and Hyper IT who are hosting our website free of charge. We would also like to acknowledge the work that has gone into this website by the PSDS committees over the last 3 years, with particular mention to Michelle Turner has also worked tirelessly to provide almost all of the written content for the site and continues to update info on a regular basis and to Fiona Kemp who has worked on this project from the start, secured the grant from Lotterywest and has seen the project through to fruition.
We hope that you can use this site as your one-stop ‘Perth swing information centre’. We will be also be archiving photos and adding articles to the blog, so accessing information about the Perth scene will be easier than ever.

Freedom and Birth
The cycle repeats.
Now lets look a little closer at these cycles and our country.
Freedom and Birth.
It is no mystery that the birth of our country was heralded with promise. The revisionists may tell a different story, but many Christians saw this as the opportunity to form a nation with godly principles and values.
A nation has never emerged that grew like ours. We were great and we were good. In 1892 the United States Supreme Court made an exhaustive study of the supposed connection between Christianity and the government of the United States. After reviewing hundreds of historical documents, the Court asserted, “These references…add a volume of unofficial declarations to the mass of organic utterances that this is a religious people… a Christian nation.” Likewise in 1931 Supreme Court Justice George Sutherland reviewed the 1892 decision in reference to another case and reiterated that Americans are a “Christian people.” (reference available, just ask.)
So the world saw something that had never been seen before – an emergent country shaped by many people who sought to honor God. We flourished.
Over time, every nation and organization ages. Even Jesus mentioned this – to paraphrase what he said, “Don’t try to accommodate new growth with old organizations. You need new organizations for new growth.” (reference available, just ask)
So, the complacency we have experienced as Americans is what all nations experience.
In complacency, things run down hill. There is not strong leadership moving us in a positive direction. We become inwardly focused, obsessed with ourselves, obsessed with feeling good and living for the moment. In all nations, this occurs as the nation ages. And, people choose the path of least resistance. This obsession with ‘feeling good’ allows leaders to emerge that speak not to a ‘higher calling’ but speak to giving us what we want. Giving people what they want without an equal exchange of value is not a good foundation. It is a cracked foundation that will not work in the long term. The type of leadership that advocates taking care of the masses without an equal contribution establishes a weak and ineffective government. This type of government speeds the down hill decline.
This type of leadership generates something else. Those who understood the original purpose of the nation see that the nation has moved off center and begin to exert their leadership influence. But, because their mission is in conflict with the official leadership, this further fragments the nation. Again, the down hill slide moves into higher gear. A nation divided against itself cannot stand.
The fruit of the government that caters to providing for the masses without an equal exchange of value begins to emerge. An economy based on government spending is economic disaster. Economic activity sags, decays and slows down. There are fewer and fewer buyers for services and goods. Reduction of workers accelerates. Average earning decreases. Fear reigns and even more people emerge saying, “Wrong turn! Go this way!” The conflict between the power holders and the rest widen. The power holders take a tighter grip to control things, they invent ways to gain more power and to stay in power. Tyranny reigns. Tyranny spurs rebellion which spurs more tyranny.
So, is there a solution for this decay?
I’d say a solid maybe.
I think the solution has to do with 2 things…
First… do you know what people group is the richest people group in the United States? The Amish. Why, because they trade with each other FIRST before they trade outside of their community. Their money ‘turns’ ten times inside of their community before it goes ‘outside.’
One of the next richest people groups are the Jewish people. They tend to turn their money 7 times in their communities before it goes outside.
Second.. regarding what Jesus said… We need new and better ways to organize.
I think this is the time for Christians to form deliberate communities. What I am saying is this. We need to…
Recognize each other and link together.
Trade with each other.
Prefer each other.
Support each other.
And begin to learn how to effectively meet the needs of those inside our Christian communities and those outside of our Christian communities.
Somehow this thought that “Christian” and “Government” are two worlds that should spin in separate universes has emerged. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
We are supposed to be wise enough (and organized enough) to settle our own disputes.
We are supposed to hold people accountable for wrong behavior.
We’re supposed to help those who are working and to not help those who are lazy and refuse to do honest work.
We’re supposed to take care of those in need and to share what we have, not by compulsion or force but by with mission, purpose and love.
These are self-government principles that we need to rethink. We need a new definition and organization of Christian community.
These are tough days for many, but also days that could see the birth of something new, a more visible expression of the Kingdom of God. | 1,081 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00697.warc.gz | 0.959014 |

It starts with a simple realization: that participating in a well-organized connectivist MOOC (massive open online course) or any other effective online learning opportunity not only puts us in real-time (synchronous) contact with those we draw into our personal learning networks, but also allows us to extend and connect online conversations with those that began days, weeks, months, or even years before the one we are currently creating, in venues we are just now discovering. It also can easily extend into days, weeks, months, or years we haven’t yet experienced.
I am, for example, writing this piece on October 17, 2013, and if you end up reading it on the same day, we’re in a fairly obvious and traditionally synchronous moment—the sort of moment we routinely experience face to face. By connecting this piece to others I’ve been reading and reacting to with colleagues in the Exploring Personal Learning Networks (#xplrpln) that Jeff Merrell and Kimberly Scott are currently facilitating under the auspices of the Northwestern University Master’s in Learning & Organizational Change Program, and by further connecting it to interactions with colleagues via Connected Educator Month, I am in a very rewarding way extending and weaving this moment across weeks and months of conversational threads created by others. They wrote earlier. You and I respond now. They pick up the thread and run with it at some as-yet-undetermined moment. And all of us are in a figuratively synchronous way connected through a conversation and learning opportunity that flows in multiple directions, over multiple platforms, as Pekka Ihanainen (HAAGA-HELIA University of Applied Sciences, Finland) and John Moravec (University of Minnesota, USA) explain in an article they wrote in 2011 and which I explored with a segment of my own personal learning network colleagues in a blog post and other online venues.
We see this in play through the Exploring Personal Learning Networks MOOC, where we are exploring and attempting to define personal learning networks by developing our personal learning networks. We are developing (or further developing) personal learning networks by drawing upon newly-created resources as well as resources that can be weeks, months, years, or even a century old. One colleague suggests that Jules Verne, the nineteenth-century novelist-poet-playwright, is part of his personal learning network in the sense that Verne’s work continues to guide him in his never-ending evolution as a learner. I am suggesting that a colleague from another MOOC is part of my #xplrpln personal learning network via a wonderful article she wrote months before the personal leaning networks MOOC was written and in progress; because her article is inspiring so many of us, she feels as if she is an active member even though personal time constraints are keeping her from posting updated material—for and in the moment. And several of us are suggesting that people who are still alive but with whom we have no one-on-one in-the-moment personal contact still are very much a part of our personal learning networks because they influence and affect our learning through the work they are producing or the examples they provide—something I experienced while participating in #etmooc (Educational Technology & Media MOOC) earlier this year.
That creates a wonderfully dynamic and continually evolving personal learning network—or network of networks—along with a tremendously expansive moment that remains open to further expansion through your participation. And the more we engage with #xplrpln course facilitators Merrell and Scott and course colleagues in the United States, Canada, Great Britain, Ireland, and Australia synchronously and asynchronously, the more we find our own personal learning networks, personal learning environments, affinity spaces, communities of practice, and overall communities of learning overlapping in ways that once again transcend geographic and chronological borders—suggesting that in the world of training-teaching-learning, borders and barriers exist only to be erased (or, at very least, made much more permeable than we often assume they can be).
It’s an obvious extension of the concept of rhizomatic learning—a process of learning that mirrors the spreading of rhizomes so there is no center, just a wonderfully ever-expanding network of learning connections rooted in creation, collaboration, and the building of communities of learning, as I noted after picking up the term from Dave Cormier via #etmooc. The learning rhizomes in our personal learning network now continue to move backward to capture parts of the extended conversation we hadn’t previously noted, and they move forward into the moment you are living and extending in collaboration with the rest of us. Together, we may be on the cusp of even greater collaborations. Learning experiences. And being part of contributing to a world in which connections through time, across time zones, and over geographic boundaries produce possibilities we are only beginning to imagine and bring to fruition. | 1,086 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00686.warc.gz | 0.953254 |

Life is precious and special, it is a great gift, meant to be lived to the fullest, and shared with the people close to us and with the world. Today I celebrate life, today I celebrate love of family and friends, today I celebrate that special gift of life. MY BIRTHDAY.
My heart is full of profound joy and happiness as I give thanks to God almighty for the gift of life and for this special and wonderful opportunity to celebrate this special day of my birth. He is the one who grants health and well-being and the wisdom to navigate this tricky world. He is the one who has sustained me all these years, and I’m grateful.
I’m glad that the weather today has been lovely, warm and sunny and I have managed to make the best use of it. I’ve done two things that I love doing the most; a couple of visits to my favorite charity and care homes, and a visit to the mall for shopping. These activities gladden my heart and I’m grateful to be able to undertake them.
My gratitude goes too, to my friends and family and to all whose path has crossed mine. Those who have supported me in one way or another and those who support me still in my endeavors, not forgetting those who have made me stronger because they said ‘no’, those who made me do it myself.
As we go through life, we encounter different people, some leave us with great memories that put a smile on our faces when we remember them, others leave us with bitter experiences, but all these contribute to our growth and make us stronger and even better. I’m thankful for who I have become and grateful to all who made it possible.
I’d like to thank especially the more than 2000 followers and readers on my blog for journeying with me and for the great contributions you make to my blog, I sincerely appreciate. May we continue this wonderful journey together and may we grow from strength to strength.
Thank you all once again and may this joy I feel be felt by you on your special day! | 451 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00680.warc.gz | 0.960217 |

When you buy fitness equipment to work out at home, you really want to get as much bang for your buck as possible. That’s why we recommend investing in a multi-station gym.
Depending on your fitness goals, you can buy a simple model where you can do a few exercises or you can splurge on a more extensive multi-station with a wide range of possibilities.
Well, for starters, you’ll be able to do a wide range of exercises on a single piece of equipment, potentially targeting every major muscle group. Imagine: you’ll be able to work on your abs, arms, legs, chest and shoulders using just one machine and get a full-body workout.
Another advantage is that you’ll be able to save money. A gym membership can set you back several hundred dollars a year, but buying a multi-station is a one time investment and it’s yours for life.
Having a multi-station in your home means you can train before you go to work, before you go to bed, at 3:00 am if you’re having trouble sleeping, or any time during the weekend. Having that flexibility is truly priceless. Even better, when you go to the gym you may have to wait to use certain equipment. When you have your multi-station at your house, you can train as you like and without stress.
A multi-station is also ideal from a space-saving perspective. Instead of buying multiple pieces of equipment that take up lots of space in your home, this lets you use a wide range of equipment all incorporated into just one machine.
And finally, the models below are built-to-last. Sure, there’s an investment up front, but this equipment is extremely durable and you should be able to use it for many, many years to come.
If you don’t know your way around a multi-station quite yet, it’s a good idea to learn about the most important aspects and characteristics to look for before you buy. Keep reading for all the details.
Of course, make sure you have enough space for your multi-gym, and consider whether you’ll be training just your upper body or also your legs to appropriately take into account your space needs. Also, look for warranties of at least 5 years.
Make sure you buy a machine with enough of a weight stack that will allow you to progressively increase your strength. Basic machines generally have a weight stack of 30-35 kilos (66-77 lbs) with higher-end ones around 70-90 kilos (150-200 lbs).
You may have to adjust the seat to ensure that you get a good workout and avoid injury. Consider buying a machine that lets you adjust the seat height instead of one with a fixed seat.
What are your fitness goals? How often do you plan on using your multi-gym? If you’ve got serious training plans, you might consider spending more on the equipment, and if you’re only going to use it occasionally, then a less expensive machine will do.
Now you’re in a much better position to pick the right multi-station for you. Go find the model with the pec deck, leg developer, lat pull down and chest press you’re looking for and start working out! | 723 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00700.warc.gz | 0.952935 |

He soon will become the new Trump administration’s special representative for international negotiations with focuses on Israel-Palestinian peace process, the American relationship with Cuba, and trade agreements.
Floor Hockey in Orthodox Jewish private schools has grown enormously popular in recent years. The championship match can fill an arena with as many as 1,000 fans, with more people watching live online. Players in elementary grades at Jewish schools now set their sights on yeshivas with the most powerful hockey programs. The teams play in the Metropolitan Yeshiva High School Hockey League, which includes 18 varsity and 15 junior varsity teams for boys. There are also 12 girls’ teams, which play in the spring season.
On Israel’s “The Voice,” the judges were astounded to turn their chairs and discover it was a frum Jew who was belting Bob Marley with such talent. But the truly impressive part of the performance came when a judge asked Ganz “Why did you choose God?” Ganz responded, “I didn’t. God chose me.”
Estee Ackerman was raised around a basement pingpong table, a traditional gathering spot for Sabbath-observant kids on long Saturday afternoons.

There are a lot of differences between online and traditional poker games. The online poker game attracts a lot of newbies, reason being the free games provided by the casinos. The new players can learn how to play the game using the poker game bonuses and tutorials provided by the online casinos. This way they can learn how to play without losing any money. Other than that, there are software packages for poker games that can be downloaded so the player can play and learn at his/ her time.
Another factor that makes online poker popular is that the players cannot see each other in online game. In case of traditional poker, players bet after analysing the behavioural pattern of the opponent, but in case of online casinos they are not able to see the mood of the player so they concentrate on the betting patterns which are calculative and gives more advantage in winning.
Another reason is increased number of games played. In traditional casinos there are limited number of dealer and those dealers have a limited time which they take to shuffle, count and deal. This way only a few games can be played every hour. However in online casinos the players deal with 60-80 hands every hour. This way the player can make more cash since he/she can lay a lot of games in an hour.
Next factor is the player profit. The players can bet using the betting pattern which is calculative and once the patterns are established he/she can earn more money. Apart from that the players can increase his/her limit and increase his/her income.
Another big advantage is that the online casinos help the new players understand the game by providing them with tutorials and free game bonuses.
Most important thing to consider while playing online game is the security. There are a lot of casinos like Gclub Royal that provide high security for transactions and games play so the players must check the security feature of the casino before starting to play. These casinos can track the ip addresses of the players and check the location as well so they can confirm that the games are not rigged.
Another problem with online casinos is that you must check the authenticity of the site. You can do so by checking the site reviews. Once all these are taken care of you can enjoy the game and play to your hearts content. | 491 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00682.warc.gz | 0.966552 |

That’s right, in addition to Mountain’s current online weekend service experiences, Mountain is hosting one OUTDOOR worship service on Sundays at 10 AM at the Mountain Road Campus in the New Life Center Parking Lot through November 1. We will abide by social distancing recommendations while worshipping outdoors together. Bring your own lawn chairs, blankets, and masks.
Online worship experiences will continue to be available every weekend. Check out MountainCC.org/Online for service times and ways to watch.
What can you expect?
You can expect a very similar experience as Mountain’s regular weekend services, just outside in the setting God created. We’ll turn our attention to God and worship together with a live band, pray, take communion and hear the message from a Mountain Pastor live on stage.
Share and invite friends and neighbors to join you using the Facebook Event.

However, after 11 seasons, it's been proven that no one does theme parties like the ladies of the OC. With themes ranging from an 80's bunco party to a Tupperware party starring a drag queen, nothing is off-limits and the OC 'Wives are always willing to look ridiculous in the name of a good dress up party. In advance of Monday night's explosive 70's party hosted by Shannon Beador, we plunged into the archive of OC parties past to find the best themes of all time.
1. Tamra's Country Themed Grandbaby Shower
The only thing better than a baby shower is a GRANDbaby shower. Leave it to Tamra to celebrate the birth of her first grandchild Ava with hay bales and tequila shots.
2. Heather's Hoedown
When Heather threw a hoedown to celebrate the groundbreaking of her new home there were plenty of cowboy hats, onion rings, and drama to go around. The ladies each took a turn on the mechanical bull, but it was Tamra who mounted it like a pro.
3. Tamra and Eddie's Sex Party
50 shades of orange! Although Tamra is not exactly known for her chastity, this party took things to another level. The fit couple threw a kinky celebration for the release of their CUT Fitness sex tape, which the audience got a steamy sneak peek of.
4. Tamra's Blast from the Past
The 'Wives aren't the only ones who are into the themes -- the husbands love it, too! Slade, Eddie and Terry went all out for this '80s party and Tamra was very impressed.
5. Ugly Sweater Party
Ugly sweaters may seem tame next to sex swings and mechanical bulls, but the ladies still get in the holiday spirit with this classic party theme, with an OC twist of course.
6. Tamra's Spooky Party
We think it's safe to crown Tamra as the queen of theme. She threw this "spooky" party back in Season 9 and the decor did not disappoint. The food, however, left much to be desired according to Shannon.
7. Vicki's Winter Wonderland Party
The theme wasn't the only thing that was cold at Vicki's Winter Wonderland party. The icy aesthetic was perfect for the drama that ensued.
8. The Flamenco Party
Cha-cha-cha! It's Lydia versus Slade again at a Flamenco-themed event, although it seems like these two are dancing more of a Tango.
9. Gretchen's Tupperware Party
Who could forget Gretchen's Tupperware party with Kay Sedia, the Drag Queen Tupperware saleperson?! While Tupperware seems like a tame theme, this party wasn't without its drama, proving that the 'Wives can spice up any and every get together. | 645 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00692.warc.gz | 0.955876 |

by Linda Weaver Clarke
Narrated by Carolyn Kashner
Length: 6 hrs and 33 mins
Release date: March 26, 2018
Publisher: Red Mountain Shadows Publishing
In this inspirational historical romance, Edith is a nurse and has gone home to assist her cousin who is “with child.” Edith has wonderful qualities but never gives a man a second chance because her expectations are so high. However, all that changes when a mysterious stranger starts writing to her. For the first time, she gets to know a man’s inner soul before making any harsh judgments.
Whoever he is, this man is a mystery and the best thing that has ever happened to her. The question that puzzles her is whether or not he’s as wonderful in person as he is in his letters.
This is the second book in the series, and this time we meet Edith, a nurse, who has gone back home to help with her cousin Melinda’s pregnancy and birth. Melinda and her husband Gilbert are from book 1 in this series, as is Jenny, Gilbert’s daughter and Melinda’s step daughter.
I loved the first book so I thought I might like the rest of the books in the series. I’m not a big fan of historical fiction, but I loved the first 2 books in the series, so I will be listening to the rest.
I loved the “secret admirer” aspect of the book and spent most of the book trying to figure out which man he was. There was one part that threw me off a bit but I kept reading and pretty much had figured it out by the time he was revealed, which didn’t take away from the book at all.
This book was a nice short read (listen) and I liked it from the beginning to the end. It had a bit of everything, friendships, first loves, humor, and even a few situations that were a bit tense.
As I said above, I’m not a big fan of historical fiction, but this series is changing my mind.
Highly recommended whether you’re a fan of historical fiction or not. | 467 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00707.warc.gz | 0.969691 |

Steel is the most recycled material in the world.
Percentage of recycled steel:
> 85% in construction
> 85% in automobiles
> 90% in machinery
> 50% in household appliances
Steel is the most used material in infrastructure and machinery for the exploitation of renewable energies such as solar or wind.
All steel created in the last 150 years can be recycled and used in new products and applications.
For its properties, steel can be infinitely recycled, without losing Its attributes and move from one product to another.
Today, 2 from every 3 tons of steel are produced from recycled steel. The use of iron ore to produce the rest is because of its multiple applications, the world requires more steel to grow.
During the past 30 years, the industry has introduced innovations that today enable to produce a ton of steel with 50% less energy than before.
The 97% of the byproducts of the steel industry can be recovered and reused (slags, process liquids, powders, zinc, etc.)
The water used in steelmaking processes, is returned almost entirely (except as evaporated). Even the water that is recycled into rivers and other sources again is generally cleaner than when it was extracted. | 274 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00691.warc.gz | 0.948696 |

It would be difficult to convey to you how many times I have opened my big, dumb mouth and said something so retarded, so mortifying, that I lay awake the next several nights wishing for my own death. I'd blog about them so you could get your jollies laughing at my stupidity, but the internet isn't big enough to hold them all. However, one particularly unfortunate boo-boo was so traumatizing to me that it's never far from my mind, in spite of the years that have passed since it occurred. Every once in a while I notice it feels like there's something in my throat, and eventually I realize it's my foot, where it's still permanently lodged after this one particularly heinous faux pas.
I live in Texas, but still have some family and friends in my hometown in Missouri, so I go back from time to time. On one particular visit, I was in the lone drugstore of that incredibly tiny town when a man who looked to be in his seventies spotted me and was very excited to see me. He was so sweet, so kind and so enthusiastic, it was as if seeing me had made his day.
You'd have to understand my hometown; it is very, very small. I can hear some of you now--"I come from a small town, too!" No, you don't. Not like this. There were 38 kids in my senior class in high school. There is one street light in town, and it's on the main street, a flashing yellow. Everyone knows everyone. This is the kind of town where, when a car shows up in town with out-of-state plates, it's news. "Who is that? The car has Idaho plates." " I think it's Kitty's cousin." No, you're wrong--I think Bob has a sister from Idaho, though, it could be her." Etcetera. There's a little old lady in town who has a police scanner in her home, which she sits by all day long, enraptured, as if she's watching TV. The moment anyone gets stopped or arrested, she's on the phone to anyone and everyone she knows to report the news. She actually gossips about what she sees in other peoples' shopping carts at the grocery store, as in, "I guess Jackie's husband is making some good money now, I saw her buying steaks." Growing up, I used to hate the total lack of privacy that comes from small town life. I probably only went to the doctor once a year or less, but still, if I called the only clinic in town to make a doctor's appointment, the office worker who answered the phone would say, "Can I help you?" and I'd say, "I'd like to make an appointment," and she'd say, "Oh, hi, Karla." And this was before our town got caller ID.
There were only a handful of businesses in town--one grocery store, two gas stations, one hardware store, one florist, etc. My mom happened to own one of the two restaurants in town, which made her high profile, as in, everyone knew her. And by extension, it seemed like everyone knew me, even though I didn't necessarily know all of them. I was probably introduced to them all at some point, but forgot lots of names, partly because I was a kid, and partly because I was (and still am) fairly self-absorbed. This is why it came as no surprise to me that this very kind elderly man knew me and knew all about me, while I could not, for the life of me, guess who in hell he might be.
This happens to me a lot when I'm back for a visit, and usually I can play it off because the exchanges are fairly short. Someone will call out, "Hi Karla!" and I will answer as if I know them. We will exchange the briefest of pleasantries, and both be on our way, with the other person naturally assuming I knew exactly who they were. I hoped to be able to pull off the same scam with this man, because the alternative--letting him know I didn't remember him--was out of the question. He was just so glad to see me--how could I tell him that I didn't even remember him? So I played along, hoping his identity would come to me at some point. The thing that haunts me even now is that he gave me an out--he actually said to me at the start of the conversation, "You probably don't remember me, do you?" And God help me, he was just so sweet and cheerful that I didn't have the heart to say no, so I said, "Yeah, of course I do!"
I'm actually a pretty skillful bullshitter, so I thought I could pull this off. Plus, I know that the key to getting away with any kind of lie is to keep the exchange brief, try to make your escape before being caught. With this man, however, it was not so easy to extricate myself from the situation. He wanted details about my life, and asked me very specific questions. "How's your mom? I know her health hasn't been so great lately." "I hear you moved to Texas--what part? Do you like it there?" "What brings you to town? How long are you here for?" This went on and on. This guy was clearly retired, and seemed to be someone who perhaps didn't have a lot to do in his day-to-day life--why else would he be so thrilled to see me, someone who he probably hadn't seen in 10 years? I wanted to turn the conversation back toward him before I blew my cover--plus, it would have been incredibly rude to answer all his questions about me and never ask one about him. So I took the first opportunity to ask, "So what have you been up to?" As he opened his mouth to answer, I was wracking my brain--who IS this guy? I was desperately hoping to mine his responses for clues. Here's the sad saga of how it went down:
Me: So what have you been up to?
Him: Oh, well, not too much...you heard about my wife.
Me: (Nodding solemnly) Yeah, I did.
Him: Yeah, so I'm living by myself now, which is hard.
At this point I was thinking, Ah-ha! His wife left him! This gives me a clue. But he kind of had that hangdog attitude about it, like he'd been dumped by her, so in an effort to put a more positive spin on it, I brightened and said:
Me: Hey, you're back on the market!
Him: Well...I don't know if I'd put it that way...(trails off)
Suddenly, total recall hit me like a bucket of cold water. I knew exactly who this guy was: It was Mr. J, the father of a kid I went to school with, and longtime patron of my mom's restaurant. His wife died about a year before; I remembered my mom mentioning it to me.
Did I just tell a man whose wife died that he's back on the fucking market??!
Can't...breathe....Foot jammed in mouth just past the knee....
I don't remember what happened after that. I have no idea how the conversation ended, or if I was in any way able to recover from that. (Is that possible!?) It's like I blacked out from the mortifying horror I felt. The next thing I remember is practically racing across the street to meet up with Brian, who had been in the grocery store picking up some food. I breathlessly recapped the scene, gushing miserably about what a goddamn idiot I was.
Now, any responsible person would have agreed with me that I was, indeed, a goddamn idiot, or at the very least, that I had stuck my foot in my mouth. (If only I had stuck in in there sooner, before I got a chance to speak.) But my husband loves me a little too much for total honesty, and can't stand to see me in such a fervor. He actually tried to convince me that it wasn't that big a deal, that Mr. J. probably hadn't noticed, etc. In spite of my protests and retelling of the story to be SURE he understood exactly how thoughtless and stupid I had actually been, he stuck to his reassurances that I had behaved in a perfectly acceptable manner. You've got to love a man who will flat-out lie to try make you feel better.
I have to tell you, this story still horrifies me to this day. I managed to surpass even my own expectations of exactly how stupid I'm capable of being. I learned a very important lesson that day: I should never, ever speak unless I'm reading from a script that someone else wrote. | 1,882 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00682.warc.gz | 0.991347 |

The digital pinhole camera was made by piercing a hole in the body cap.
The lens was removed and an aluminum foil with a pinhole was taped to the body cap.
A total of eight pinholes were made.
Exposure was taken several times for control of brightness.
Out of all of the pictures taken, only eight best pictures (one for each pinhole) was printed out.
The resolutions were then measured on a scale of 1-10, where 10 was the best resolution outcome and 1 was the worst resolution outcome.
Five objects were tested: chair, eye chart, eye chart-2, fence, and a house.
The eight different pinholes have a size of 0.005mm, 0.01mm, 0.2mm, 0.3mm, 0.4mm, 0.8mm, 1.3mm, and 2mm. The largest pinhole with a diameter of 2mm allowed in too much light making the image blurry.
On the other hand, the smallest pinhole with a diameter of 0.005mm allowed in too little light that the light rays overlapped each other causing diffraction.
It turned out that a pinhole with the size of 0.2mm produced the most effective resolution.
This experiment helped to achieve the objective. A pinhole that was either too small or too large had bad resolution and could not be seen well.
The next pinhole that was almost as equally clear as the first one had the size of 0.01mm.
This suggest that any pinhole size between the range of 0.01mm and 0.2mm will have a clear resolution while anything else above or below will not have such good resolution image due to diffraction.
This experiment is about A pinhole with the size of 0.2mm gave the best resolution image for a Nikon D200 digital pinhole camera.

The bid book containing the housing unit reservation form is purchased through any automated post office at the level of all cities and governorates in which the housing units are offered.
The number of units offered for reservation reaches 100 thousand units with areas of 75 meters and 90 meters, in cities (Badr “Capital Gardens” – October Gardens – New October “West Airport Area” – 15 May – 10th of Ramadan – New Obour – Sadat – New Minya – Mallawi New – New Aswan – New Qena – New Sohag), at prices of 244,000 for the 75-meter apartment, and 310,000 for the 90-meter unit.
According to the announcement of the reservation conditions, the price of the apartment in social housing will be paid over 20 years, with the real estate financing system at a reduced interest of 7%, and Masrawy explains it in the following points:
– The price of the 90-meter apartment has reached 310 thousand pounds, where 15.5 thousand earnings are paid in addition to 100 pounds in terms of a brochure and 350 administrative expenses that are not refundable.
– After the completion of the application and announcing the names of those who meet the conditions, starting from next April 1, the payment of 12 quarterly installments, the value of the installment of 2600 pounds, that is, by the end of the 12 installments, the applicant has paid 31 thousand and 200 pounds, regardless of the seriousness of the reservation

I am associate professor in European Ethnology at the Institution for History and Contemporay Studies at Södertörn University. I have a German background; I moved from Germany to Sweden in 1994. My main research interests are historical ethnological research, Swedish-German relations, Critical Discourse Analysis and Discourse-Historical Method. I am both ethnologist and philologist and thats why I am particularly interested in studies that combine cultural research with linguistic studies.
Since January 2016 I am the leader of the project "Between East and West: Ideology, aesthetics and politics in the musical relations between Sweden and the GDR 1949-1989. The aim of the project is to analyze the connections of esthetic and musicologial ideas and political ideology and to study the influence of the musical relations on cultural politics within the Cold War context. The project is carried out with two colleagues: Ursula Geisler (Assistant Professor in Musicology) and Henrik Rosengren (Assistant Professor in History), and it is financed by the Baltic Sea Foundation.
Earlier I have worked on a postdoc-project with the title: "Scholarship and Politics: Connections between Swedish and German Ethnology and Folklore 1930–1960". This project I conducted at Uppsala University 2009–2011, and it has been financed by the Swedish Research Council. From this project I have published several articles in Swedish, German and English, and a monograph in Swedish. This study was focusing on the relationship between politics and the scholarship of Folklife Studies/Ethnology, that is, how knowledge is produced and influenced by the political environment in different national and international contexts. It also gives in insight in the reactions of Swedish ethnologists and folklorists to Nazi Germanys and GDRs political control of scholarship, and the interest shown by Nazi German and GDR scholars and politicians in cooperation with Swedish scholars.
Another earlier research has been on Swedish-German musical relations during the Nazi period in Germany and the function of the Swedish composer Kurt Atterberg (1887–1974) in this context. My dissertation, Music and Politics in the Shadow of Nazism: Kurt Atterberg and Swedish-German Musical Relations (Musik och politik i skuggan av nazismen. Kurt Atterberg och de svensk-tyska musikrelationerna, Lund 2007), shows how both countries stimulated each other in Swedish-German musical relations, how music was used as a political tool and how it was used in constructions of ethnic and national identities.

Who would not love to have a fresh cup of coffee every morning? We bet you would love to have the persistent taste of the exact flavour you desire everyday right? But how?
For getting the persistency in the flavour of your coffee, there are certain aspects. The two major factors that you have to choose is the kind of Coffee Bean that you want to have for the flavor you desire, and the kind of coarseness that you want in the ground beans.
Today we will be talking about everything that there is to know about coarse ground coffee so that by the end of this article you can choose your coffee perfectly and experience the heavenly taste.
Why is it so important to choose the grind size carefully?
When you are going to make coffee, there are a few fundamental ingredients that are needed like roasted coffee beans, heat, water, sugar if needed, and of course the coffee pot.
But if you mix all of these ingredients and hope that you will have the best of the coffee, then you are incredibly wrong. Collaborating any kind of coffee beans or coffee grind with water, sugar, and heat won’t be enough for your great tasting coffee.
Therefore, you need to know about the brew ratio that makes a perfect coffee. That will include you to know about the right kind of temperature, the right volume of coffee beans, the perfect extraction time and of course the perfect volume of water. If you want your coffee a bit sweeter, you can go for sugar as well.
It has been tried and tested that with the help of the modern coffee making machines the ratio will turn out to be just fine. Even the traditional machines like the Moka pot and the French press have specific standards to rectify any wrong brewing ratio.
But even then you will sometimes see the coffee might taste disgusting. Now how will you solve this problem?
The only solution to the seemingly unending problem is definitely to check out the coarseness of the coffee grinds.
What are the different types of coffee grinds?
Whenever we are talking about the coarseness of coffee, our main attention is towards the size of coffee beans that we have taken.
First is coarser grind of coffee
Coarse grind of coffee means when the beans are big, and the grinding is done very little so that there are large particles of coffee beans. In the case of this, the hot water can only bind to the outside part of the grinds, and the is observed slowly when the water seeps from the outside to the inside gradually.
Second is the fine grinds of coffee
Find grind of coffee means the coffee beans are ground very well and therefore there is a smooth powdery texture to it. When the hot water is good, it since the grains are small the water can extract the flavor much faster than the former one.
Now you know that there is a difference between the fine and coarse grind of coffee. But those are not only the two types because even the subtypes are prevalent. Look at some of these subtypes and how you can understand which one to choose:
- Coarse grind coffee
- Medium coarse grind coffee
- Medium grind coffee
- Medium fine grind coffee
- Fine grind coffee
- Extra fine grind coffee
How to find which grind to use how?
There are some coffee makers, which are most suitable to be used for the different coffee grind. You should not be afraid to try out the variations of the grinds that you can use to obtain a creamy coffee taste.
When you are using Aeropress, you need to insert find two medium fine grinds for the optimum taste. Most of the Aeropress devices are adjustable, and their working mechanism is very similar to espresso- which means we pressurize the hot water into the coffee grounds quickly rather than brewing slowly. Therefore, to get the optimum taste you need to find finer grounds so that even when the process is quick, the water can retain the flavor.
If you want to do an experiment, you can try and put coarse ground coffee, but the Aeropress will give an output of Under extracted pot of coffee if you are trying to make things quick. Or else, you have ages to wait before the optimum extraction takes place.
Drip coffee brewers
We would all agree to the fact that the drip coffee brewers are very easy to handle as all we have to do is to add water to the coffee grounds and let it be. It is advised that in the case of these brewers, you choose the medium-fine coffee grounds.
Unlike the espresso out the Aeropress machine, the water is used as quickly through the grounds, but still, the water will run Straight Through the coffee, and you might not get the actual flavor if the grounds are coarse in texture. The medium fine ground ensures that the coffee is neither under extracted nor over extracted, so it leaves enough flavor in the coffee.
Did you know that in case of real espresso machines, it takes about 9 bars of pressure to pull? These machines are undoubtedly quite expensive because it makes the strongest coffee with the absolute dark flavor. It is essential that you put nothing but find ground coffee in the machine because it takes less than 30 seconds for the hot water to pass through the coffee grounds.
But it is vital that your distribution in the group handle is correct and you have given the correct amount of coffee as well. Just in case you like the consistency you might have a weird combination of over and under extracted coffee in the same pot!
Now we come to the kind of device which will require coarse ground coffee. The French press has nothing similar to the Aeropress, espresso, or drip brewer. Therefore, it soaks the coffee grinds in hot water for a prolonged period, which means that the water has enough time to see through the interior of the coffee grounds.
In the case of the French press if you use fine ground coffee, then the coffee is more likely to be over extracted. To check if you are struggling to put down the plunger, then be sure that you have grounded your coffee too far.
Automatic coffee makers
This kind of coffee makers mostly suit medium to medium fine grinds of coffee, indifferent about whether they use some pressure to push the water through the grinds, or make use of the drip system. These are very generic coffee makers, and they are having a reset extraction time.
So you have to do is to stick to a perfect amount of coffee, and you will have the optimum taste you require. The time is ample for extracting the flavor out of the medium to medium fine grinds.
What can be found in every home and it requires a powdery fine grind coffee, just like an espresso machine.
The functionality of the Moka Pot is to turn the hot water into steam which then pushes through your coffee grinds, and it gets ready to be poured out. It is not as fast as an espresso machine would work, but it is effective for making strong coffee because of its longer extraction time.
So finally what are the coarse coffee grinds best for?
The French press uses the coarse grinds best and brings out the optimum taste. Once you know the right amount of coffee to put in your French press, you will love the rich taste of strong and smooth coffee.
If somehow you feel that your coffee is coming in a sour taste, then you should make your coffee Grounds finer. And if it is to be there for your taste, then either reduce your emotion time or use coarser coffee- or do both.
What are the two methods of grinding coffee?
Pre-ground coffee found in markets
- Very easy to make
- Comes in measured packets
- The consistency is perfect
- Would not be as fresh tasting due to prolonged package and storage
- Highly expensive
Home ground coffee
- The test will be unique
- Especially with a manual grinder, the smoothness will increase
- Gives a better sense of precision to make the perfect coffee grounds for your device
- A bit more time consuming
For all the coffee lovers out there, it is always advisable to ground your coffee because it gives an out of the world experience. Now that you know everything about coarse ground coffee, your perfect coffee is up to you to be prepared! Be the perfect coffee dork, who is not only perfect while recognizing the taste but also a perfect coffee maker! | 1,726 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00685.warc.gz | 0.955885 |

German auto giant Volkswagen steered clear of a fresh blow in its emissions-rigging scandal, saying that another type of diesel engine which had raised concerns was not fitted with software designed to dupe testers, AFP reports.
"It is now confirmed" that the questionable software fitted on 11 million vehicles "is not installed" in the type of diesel engines that had replaced the EA189 engines, which are at the heart of the massive scandal.
A company spokesman had earlier said that the carmaker was checking whether another engine, the EA288 were also equipped with the cheating device. The EA288 engines replaced the EA189 engines which have plunged Volkswagen into the storm of a worldwide scam.
Volkswagen said that the EA288 engines within the European Union are not fitted with the software and consequently "new vehicles of the Volkswagen Group offered within the European Union with those engines comply with legal requirements and environmental standards".
The company headquartered in Wolfsburg in north Germany last month admitted to fitting 11 million vehicles of its various brands -- VW, Audi, Skoda and Seat -- with the rogue devices, engulfing the world's biggest automaker by sales in an unprecedented crisis.
The software turns on pollution controls when the vehicle is undergoing official emissions tests, and switches them off when the car is back on the road, allowing it to spew out harmful levels of dangerous gases.
The revelations about VW's manipulation of its diesel engines have sparked one of the biggest scandals in the history of the automobile sector.
In addition to the costs of repairing so many vehicles, the once-respected automaker faces billions of euros (dollars) in potential fines and legal costs, aside from the incalculable fallout from lost sales and diminished customer trust.
Investigations over the diesel engines equipped with the pollution cheating device are under way in several countries, including the United States, Italy, Spain, France and Germany itself.
Volkswagen is preparing for a massive recall of affected vehicles, which it has to repair so they can meet environmental standards in the countries concerned.
The VW spokesman Thursday revealed that around three million of these are 1.6 litre diesel engine vehicles, which would need significant repairs.
Others with 1.2 litre and 2.0 litre engines would only require a software update.
Volkswagen is facing an unprecedented huge repair job at staggering costs, analysts say.
“I can’t think of any other recall that would be as comprehensive,” Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing at Consumer Reports magazine, told Bloomberg News. “It’s really an expensive rework.”
Volkswagen has so far set aside 6.5 billion euros ($7.3 billion) to do the repairs, but Bloomberg cited analysts who put the figure at 15-20 billion euros.
The scandal has already wiped off about half of the Volkswagen Group's market capitalisation, but this latest brief worry about another diesel engine did not affect its stock on Thursday.
Volkswagen shares rebounded 3.39 percent to 103,80 euros on Frankfurt's DAX 30 index which closed up 2.48 percent overall on hints of more economic stimulus by the European Central Bank. | 679 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00688.warc.gz | 0.951529 |

"We knew that high blood pressure medication was protective in general among older people, however, we focused on whether it is also protective in frail patients with many other medical conditions who are usually excluded from randomized trials," said lead author Dr. Giuseppe Mancia, professor emeritus at the University of Milano-Bicocca in Milan.
For the study, his team collected data from more than one million people aged 65 and older in northern Italy who had received three or more blood pressure medication prescriptions.
The investigators also looked at the outcomes of older people with a variety of health conditions.
For those in good health at the outset of the study, the probability of death over seven years was 16%. That rose to 64% for patients who were in very poor health.
The researchers found that people who took their blood pressure medications regularly were 44% less likely to die during the study if they started in good health while those who were in poor health were 33% less likely to die compared to older people who did not adhere to their medication regimen.
The same pattern was seen for heart disease deaths.
"Our findings definitely suggest that even in very frail people, antihypertensive treatment reduces the risk of death; however, the benefits may be smaller in this group," Mancia said in an American Heart Association news release.
He urged doctors to do their best to encourage patients to take their medicine, because "medications do nothing if people don't take them."
The report was published June 8 in the journal Hypertension.

Milk does a body good, even a hamster's body. Just like with humans, milk can help your hamster grow strong bones. It can even help treat the symptoms of a cough until you can get your pet to the vet. Not all milk is a good choice, however, and your hamster may not be interested in consuming milk by itself. As a responsible owner, you need to understand which dairy products are safe and how to properly feed milk to your pet to avoid spoilage.
Benefits of Dairy
Dairy products work in hamsters the same way they do in humans. Dairy is a great way to improve your hamster's bone health, especially when he's still growing. Throughout his life, dairy products will prove beneficial to his teeth. Because the hamster's teeth are continuously growing, they need calcium and vitamin D to keep them strong. Another benefit is that milk can be mixed with warm water and honey to help ease a cough while waiting to see the vet. The probiotics in yogurt can also help your hamster when he has stomach troubles.
Which Milk to Choose
Like humans, hamsters would probably prefer whole milk, but whole milk has way too much fat. Skim milk is a much healthier option. You never want to give your hamster chocolate milk as it can be loaded with sugar, and chocolate is poisonous to hamsters. Also avoid other flavored milks, such as strawberry. The sugar and artificial coloring in flavored milks are not good for your hammy's health.
Other Dairy Options
Hamsters can have mild cheese, in moderation. They can also have low-fat cottage cheese as well as low-fat or fat-free yogurt. You want to avoid unhealthy dairy products, such as ice cream, which may be high in fat, sugar and calories.
Pour a small amount of skim milk in a spoon and let your hamster drink from it where the mess can easily be cleaned. Milk spilled inside the cage can quickly spoil, causing a stink and a possible illness in your pet. You can also use a dropper to feed milk to your pet, but it's more of a hassle to clean up. If your hamster doesn't seem to like milk, feed him a small piece of bread or unsweetened cereal that has been soaked in milk. Remove uneaten portions from the cage immediately to prevent spoilage. Consider milk and dairy products like treats and only provide small amounts, such as a teaspoon of milk.

This procedure is popular in the united states as the patients there generally have a higher BMI. The sleeve surgery is a more popular operation in Australia. Gastric bypass surgery is generally reserved for patient who have failed the sleeve surgery in Australia.
The Gastric Bypass takes advantage of both restriction and malabsorption to work. Consequently it is one of the most effective weight loss procedure. The entire procedure is performed laparoscopically. The average expected weight loss with the gastric bypass procedure is around 80% of excess weight in the first year. The weight loss is reduced to approximately 50 to 60% excess weight loss in 10 years. It is a complex procedure requiring formation of a small gastric pouch using stapling devices to divide the upper stomach and produce a 20-30cc pouch. The small intestine is divided about 75 cm from the point where it commences at the duodenum and is joined by stapling techniques to the bowel 150cm below the point of division.
Several forms of this procedure have been performed over the last three decades. It is based on an operation used to treat stomach ulcers and cancers for more than a century, and the name is derived from the name of the French surgeon who first described the use of a small segment of the small bowel to divert bile and acid away from the stomach and oesophagus. The current operation involves a restrictive element (considerably reducing the size of a part of the stomach) and a hormonal component (early passage of food into the intestine). These two factors give the strongest possible appetite suppression. This makes weight loss relatively straightforward in the great majority of people.
This operation has a very good combination of effectiveness (how much weight is lost) and durability (how long weight loss lasts). It avoids some of the dietary limitations of restrictive operations and the nutritional deficiencies of intestinal bypass operations. It accounts for 60 percent of obesity surgery worldwide.
Most of the published evidence leading to the worldwide acceptance of obesity surgery by government health agencies in Australia, the US, and the United Kingdom is based on gastric bypass surgery, which is the gold standard by which other weight loss methods are currently judged.
In some people, a ring can be placed around the stomach pouch during the operation to limit the risk of weight regain.
The effects of the surgery are:
- To reduce the amount of food the patient can eat.
- The opening from the pouch to the stoma is narrow, the food can only leave the stomach slowly, thus providing the patient with prolonged feelings of satiation.
- Sweet foods are not tolerated. The food the patient consumes enters the small bowel directly from the small stomach pouch. Eating sweet sugary foods produce a condition known as ‘dumping’. This is an unpleasant condition with feelings of sweating, anxiety, fast pulse and nausea.
- This deters patients from eating these fattening foods and thus aids weight reduction.
- Bypass may therefore be particularly suitable for patients who are addicted to sweets.
- Diabetes is often rapidly controlled due to the alteration in intestinal hormones. There is a variable length of small bowel bypassed producing a degree of malabsorption.
- This varies from 75cm to 150cm depending on how much malabsorption we wish to produce.
- The duodenum and upper small bowel is bypassed. This can produce nutrient malabsorption and deficiency. Iron and calcium deficiencies are common and protein deficiency can occur. Supplements must be taken to prevent the metabolic effects
Banded gastric bypass (Fobi procedure)
In larger patients or those who are habitual large–meal eaters, a ring can be placed around the gastric pouch to prevent softening due to forceful eating. Pouch softening may otherwise lead to increased capacity and later weight regain. Due to the ready availability of a high–quality band, the banded bypass is a routinely performed procedure, unless technical or patient factors make this unwise
Mini gastric bypass
This operation has been around for about 10 to 15 years and is becoming more popular, although not all outcomes are known. It has similar results to standard bypass but it is easier to perform (hence its increasing popularity). It has a lower risk of obstruction of the small bowel than a standard bypass, but higher risks of reflux. This may be the ideal operation for very overweight men for whom a standard gastric bypass may be difficult, or for patients with adhesions in the small bowel.
Questions and other information about Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass
What are the benefits?
- More weight loss compared to the gastric sleeve or the gastric band
- Greater improvement in diabetes compared to the gastric sleeve or the band
- Suitable for revisional weight loss surgery
- Treatment for severe reflux
- Release of gut hormones promotes long term weight loss
What are the advantages of Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass?
- The average excess weight loss after the gastric bypass procedure is generally higher in a compliant patient than with restrictive procedures.
- Studies show that after 10 to 14 years, patients on average have only gained back 10 to 13 percent of the lost weight.
- Significant sustained weight loss
- Blood sugar levels that become completely normal within 1 year of surgery
- Lower or normal blood pressure
- Lower or normal cholesterol levels
- Relief from sleep apnea, acid reflux and urinary stress incontinence
- Less arthritis pain and improved mobility
- Increased energy and ability to exercise
- Improved mood and self-esteem
- Arrested progression of heart disease
- Improvement of many lung conditions
- Exercise endurance
What are the complications?
The mortality rate for the procedure is approximately 1%. Anaesthetic complications, such as myocardial infarction and pneumonia, pulmonary emboli and wound infections can occur as with any procedure on the morbidly obese.
There is an incidence of complications of 5% to 10% specific to this procedure.
- Wound infections
- Reflux and diarrhoea
- Gastrojejunalstomal stricture
- Marginal ulcers
- Internal hernia
- Roux limb ischemia
- Blow-out of the stomach remnant
- Leak (The most serious problem that can occur, leakage from points where theintestine is joined together or to the stomach.) This can lead to infection and peritonitis and is the main cause of post-operative death.
- Small bowel obstruction can occur in the immediate post-operative period or later due to adhesions. ( this is less with keyhole surgery)
- Long-term micronutrient deficiencies (eg, vitamin B12, folate, iron, calcium deficiency with bone softening, anaemia and hypo-proteinemia).

In March of 2013, very serious allegations emerged concerning illegal spying and infiltration of social movements by VALE secret-service agents in collaboration with the Brazilian intelligence agency (ABIN). The social movements and community organizations targeted by illegal spying and infiltration have been actively organizing around getting VALE to respect human rights and become a better corporate citizen, and all of them are partners or allies of Development and Peace in Brazil.
The activities of the mining company have negative impacts on local communities. They speak of forced displacements, damaged homes, broken communities, serious health problems, and environmental pollution, among other serious consequences. In addition, when the company was privatized in 1997, its reserves were undervalued by 74%, and the final selling price was 28 times less than the company’s worth, causing billions of dollars to be drained from the public coffers.
For all these reasons, numerous socials movements, non-governmental organizations, and community groups in urban and rural areas have been organizing and demanding that their rights be respected, their communities be protected, their suffering be abated, and compensation be provided for their suffering and loss. And many are demanding that the company resettle them in healthy environments, where they can once again breathe unpolluted air, have access to clean water, and produce wholesome food. VALE, unfortunately, refuses to compensate communities affected by its mining activities, despite the large profits that it makes.
More than a month has gone by, and the Brazilian government has done nothing to shed light on this matter. Development and Peace believes it is imperative for the appropriate authorities to launch an investigation into any wrongdoing by VALE employees, civil servants, and public agencies, and to put an end to the intimidation and harassment of human rights defenders, whose lives are at risk for their social justice work.
Development and Peace and other civil society organizations sent a letter to the president of Brazil, Dilma Roussef, demanding a thorough and transparent investigation regarding alleged spying activities by the mining company. | 449 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00682.warc.gz | 0.962656 |

According to the state of the moisture absorbent, it can be classified into three types:
a solid moisture absorbent, a liquid moisture absorbent, and a gas moisture absorbent.
The solid moisture absorbent dehumidifies the humid air by the adsorption principle;
The liquid moisture absorbent utilizes the absorption principle to achieve the dehumidification effect of the air;
The gas moisture absorbent is compressed air, and the air is mixed with the humid air to achieve dilution and dehumidification of the humid air.
Commonly used solid moisture absorbent
Silica gel: Alias silicic acid gel, a highly active adsorbent material, is an amorphous material. The main component of silica gel is silica, which is chemically stable.
Does not burn. Silica gel is a clear or milky white granular solid. It has an open porous structure, strong adsorption, and can adsorb a variety of substances. Dilute sulfuric acid (or hydrochloric acid) is added to an aqueous solution of water glass and allowed to stand to form a hydrous silicic acid gel to be solidified. The Na+ and SO42-(Cl-) ions dissolved in the electrolyte are removed by washing with water, and after drying, silica gel is obtained. If the water is absorbed, part of the silica gel absorbs about 40% or even 300%. Used for gas drying, gas absorption, liquid dehydration, chromatography, etc., also used as a catalyst. For example, cobalt chloride is added, it is blue when it is dry, and it is red after water absorption. Recyclable and reusable.
Calcium Chloride: A salt consisting of chlorine and calcium with the chemical formula CaCl2. Slightly bitter, tasteless. It is a typical ionic halide that is white, hard crumb or granules at room temperature. Anhydrous chlorination because it readily deliquesces in the air
Calcium must be stored in a sealed container. Calcium chloride and its hydrates and solutions have important applications in food manufacturing, building materials, medicine and biology. Calcium chloride has a prominent adsorption capacity for ammonia and a low desorption temperature, and has great application prospects in the adsorption separation of synthetic ammonia. However, since calcium chloride is not easy to form a stable porous material, the contact area with the gas ammonia is small, and it is easy to expand and agglomerate during adsorption and desorption, so that it is difficult to put it into practical use in this respect. Carrying calcium chloride on a high specific surface carrier can greatly increase the contact area between calcium chloride and gas ammonia. Related studies have shown that a composite adsorbent prepared by supporting calcium chloride on a molecular sieve has better adsorption performance and stability than a single adsorbent. | 628 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00688.warc.gz | 0.909478 |

They have funds they want to, or need to, spend before midnight December 31. These customers are ripe for the picking, so hurry and make those all-important, highly lucrative, sales calls you can only make at the end of the year.
What kind of customers are so eager to spend their money now? Surprisingly, quite a few. If your small business sells primarily in the B2B (business-to-business) space, these next few weeks can be a great time to increase your coffers.
Here’s something many small business owners overlook: many business customers and clients have funds they want to — or need to — spend before the end of the year. That money could end up in your cash register.
What type of business customers are eager to spend money now? Those who have:
- “Use it or lose it” budgets – Large corporations, government agencies, educational institutions, or non-profit organizations often have budgets they must use before year end. In some large organizations, if they don’t spend all their allocated dollars this year, their budget next year may actually be cut. No one wants that.
- “Lower my taxes” approach – “Accelerate expenses, delay income” is a basic tenet of year-end tax planning. Many small businesses and sole proprietors who’ve had a profitable year are willing to make useful purchases right now to lower their 2016 taxes.
- Co-op dollars – Some businesses—retailers, resellers, equipment installers, and any company that sells products manufactured by others—can receive “co-op” money to use for cooperative advertising or promotions. This money, too, often disappears if they don’t spend it within the calendar year. Especially if your business is in the marketing space—advertising, promotions, public relations—you may be able to get a piece of this.
All of this means you’ve got some highly motivated prospects out there. But those opportunities disappear on January 1. In fact, you’ll have to act sooner than that. With many people leaving their offices the last week or two of the year, you need to act now.
- Make a list – Identify which past customers are most likely to have budgets or co-op dollars they must use by the end of the year. Focus your efforts on those customers. What have they bought from you in the past? What might they need now? Do a bit of legwork before you contact prospects.
- Visit customers in person – The holidays give you a perfect excuse to drop in on your customers. Bring them a present—it doesn’t have to be anything expensive. You can’t really go wrong with a box of chocolates or even a Starbucks gift card. While you’re there, ask whether they have any budget dollars they need to spend before year’s end. Tell them you can help them out.
- Call – You’ve also got a reason to pick up the phone and call clients: to wish them happy holidays. After chatting with them about their holiday plans, bring the conversation around to what they need to buy before December 31.
- Email – If you have a large number of customers in this spend-it-or-lose-it category, craft an email and send it out. Offer special end-of-year discounts to motivate them. Follow up with a phone call.
- Suggest they use “co-op” funds – Remind customers they may have dollars available from vendors. Co-op funds can usually be used in many ways, not just for placing ads. Suggest your customers buy your products as promotional giveaways, just as long as you can add the vendor’s name (think of placing stickers on the product or adding a letter in the package).
- Keep track of what worked this year – If the end of the year crept up on you, don’t panic. Create an end-of-year customer segment for your email newsletter, CRM, or whatever other method you use for customer engagement, and take notes so you’re not scrambling around this time of year in 2017. And ask customers when their fiscal year ends. That’s always a lucrative time to make sales.

Unfortunately — and this is subjective, obviously — they’re not always the prettiest things on four wheels. Take, for example, the 812 Superfast. It’s got a massive, naturally aspirated V12 under its hood and anger in its heart, but it also has more scoops, pass-throughs, lines, angles and creases than you can shake a stick at. That last part is undoubtedly what inspired one very wealthy individual to convince Ferrari to have a go at smoothing the 812 out.

The result is the 812 Omologata (Italian for homologation, also where the O in GTO comes from) is just that — a smoothed-out 812 Superfast. Where there were once ducts and splitters, we now have smooth and sumptuous curves. Oh, and louvers. The rear window has louvers. It’s amazing.
The body has been hand-formed out of aluminum by the team at Ferrari’s in-house design studio. The fact that it’s aluminum and not carbon fiber or magnesium or some other strange, as-yet-undiscovered metal shouldn’t make you think it’s any less performance-minded than the car it’s based on, though. The changes to the Omologata are only skin-deep.
Inside the car, you get some four-point seatbelts and cool, vintage-inspired hammertone painted surfaces to look like good old-fashioned cast metal. Ferrari even came up with a wrinkle-paint finish for the dash to mimic its racing specials from the 1960s. It’s very, very good. Outside, the brand with the prancing horse kicked the bucket of Rosso Corsa paint out of the barn and came up with a darker, very gorgeous shade called Rosso Magma.
Ferrari naturally won’t divulge which of its insanely rich and insanely-dedicated-to-the-brand clients commissioned the Omologata. Still, given the brand’s long-established practice of playing favorites with clients based on purchase history, etc., you can be that this won’t be the only world-class Italian stallion they have in their garage.
Ferrari 812 Omologata is the front-engined GT car we’ve always wanted from Maranello

The 12-bout UFC stop take place at Chartway Arena in Norfolk, Va., the promotion’s second visit to the venue. The main UFC Fight Night 169 card is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET and will mark the third title shot for Benavidez (28-5), who lost twice to former longtime champion Demetrious Johnson.
He heads into the bout on a three-fight win streak with two finishes. Figueiredo (17-1) is 6-1 in seven fights with the UFC. He suffered his first loss with the promotion in March of last year, but rebounded with consecutive victories. Benavidez is a -150 favorite (risk $150 to win $100), while Figueiredo is a +130 underdog in the latest Benavidez vs. Figueiredo odds. In the co-main event, Felicia Spencer (-800) meets Zarah Fairn dos Santos (+550) in a women’s featherweight fight. Before making any UFC Fight Night 169 predicitions of your own, make sure you hear what SportsLine MMA expert Kyle Marley has to say.
Marley won the first-ever “ToutMaster” UFC betting contest sponsored by MMAOddsBreaker and also appears regularly on multiple MMA betting and DFS shows. Over the past year, $100 bettors who have followed Marley’s picks are up nearly $18,000.
Just last week at UFC Fight Night 168, Marley told SportsLine members to support hometown favorite Dan Hooker (-150) against Paul Felder (+130) in a matchup of rugged ranked lightweights in the main event. He reasoned that Hooker’s slight edge in overall skill would be the difference, and a fifth-round takedown likely gave the New Zealander the edge in a split-decision victory. Anyone who has consistently followed Marley is way up.
Now, with UFC Fight Night 169 fast approaching, Marley has carefully studied every matchup on the card, identified the best value in the UFC odds and released his MMA picks for every single fight. He’s only sharing those selections here.
Benavidez vs. Figueiredo preview
Marley knows both fighters will be eager to take advantage of an opportunity that they likely didn’t believe would materialize this quickly, and Figueiredo might owe Benavidez a debt of gratitude for making it happen.
Benavidez defeated Henry Cejudo in a 2016 non-title bout and has won three of his four fights since. The 35-year-old Texas native won Performance of the Night for his second-round stoppage of second-ranked Jussier Formiga last June.
But he faces a daunting challenge from the rising Figueiredo, who has four stoppages among his six UFC victories. The 32-year-old Brazilian submitted Tim Elliott in their October bout. His decision win over Alexandre Pantoja in June earned a Fight of the Night accolade. You can see Marley’s full Benavidez vs. Figueiredo picks here.
Top UFC Fight Night 169 predictions
We’ll share one of Marley’s UFC Fight Night 169 predictions here: He is backing Sergey Spivak (-120) to get a stoppage of veteran Marcin Tybura (+100) in a heavyweight clash.
Tybura (17-6) is a five-year UFC pro who has battled some of the division’s biggest names. But the 34-year-old Polish fighter has lost four of his past five bouts, with a decision win over seven-footer Stefan Struve the lone victory. He has been stopped in three of those defeats.
Spivak (10-1), 25, has split his first two UFC bouts. The Ukrainian recorded a second-round submission of Tai Tuivasa in their October bout on the UFC 243 card.
“Tybura looks like he could be a shot fighter and there is no way I could bet on him after some of the performances we have seen lately,” Marley told SportsLine. “Spivak is 10 years younger and should improve, so I am going to side with Spivak and I believe he’ll get a finish.”
How to make UFC Fight Night 169 picks
Marley also has strong picks for Benavidez vs. Figueiredo, Spencer vs. Fairn dos Santos and every other bout on the UFC Fight Night 169 card. He’s also backing one “relentless grappler” who will win most striking exchanges too. Get every pick for every fight on the UFC Norfolk card at SportsLine.

FLAME TREE LEGEND
This Chamorro legend is about forbidden love between a two lovers whose
grandfathers had become bitter enemies, and this feud carried on through
the generations. Elena's brothers learned of a secret meeting of the
young lovers, and waited to accost them. As they waited, a wild pig
rushed towards Elena, and the brothers killed it, and went home happy with
their kill. Elena fled, leaving her bloodied white mantilla on the
ground. Nicolas arrived, and finding the bloodied mantilla under the
white flowering tree; and thinking his love had died, killed himself.
Elena returned from hiding, and seeing her lover dead, she took his knife
and killed herself, dying with Nicolas in her arms. When their parents
found the lovers under the Atbot Det Fuegu tree, the blossoms had turned
to a fiery red. Some say the blossoms blush red for the shame of the
families who kept the lovers apart. This is the legend of the Flame Tree.

EAC holds 13th annual Engineering Day
[Click Image to Enlarge] The first place overall winners at EAC Engineering Day 2017 were (from left) Kolter Hubble, Alex Jaramillo, Holly Smith, and Grayce Otto, from St. Johns High School.
By Sarah Griffin
Thatcher, AZ—Eastern Arizona College’s Engineering Department hosted its 13th annual Engineering Day earlier this month. The event was co-sponsored by Freeport McMoRan, the National Science Foundation, and the EAC Engineering Club.
Several volunteers from Freeport, the EAC Engineering Club, and the community spent the day mentoring students and running the competitions. “For a small community, we have a very large number of engineers that live and work here,” says EAC engineering instructor and coordinator of the event, Tom Palmer. “Unfortunately, there are very few opportunities for those professionals to rub shoulders. Engineering Day is a great chance for a variety of professionals to come together and help a new generation of students gain insight into engineering as a potential career choice. All of the volunteers I spoke with asked me to please make sure they are invited back next year. It’s great to see so many people willing to give of their time and talents!”
More than 160 students from seven schools across Arizona attended, including Thatcher, Safford, Fort Thomas, Morenci, Mount Graham, St. Johns, and Duncan. “It was great to see that several students who participated last year came excited and prepared,” said Palmer. “We now have other high school students looking forward to this event and preparing for competitions ahead of time. It’s something that both the EAC students and the high school students seem to really enjoy.” The winners of the competition ranged from several different schools.
The K’Nex Bridge Contest tested the students’ abilities to work as a team, utilize a limited amount of resources they had to ‘purchase,’ and solve a problem within a limited time frame. Teams built a bridge that needed to support an applied load using only K’Nex building materials. The first place winners were Mikayla Provencio, Miranda Hernandez, David Gabbitas, and Jason Estrada from Safford High School. The second place team included Jonah Kamae, Sam Nicholas, Brock Jones, and Ben Shumway from Thatcher High School.
The Egg Drop Competition involved dropping an egg from a height of 16 feet onto solid concrete. The primary objective was to construct a device that could protect the egg, with the secondary goal of constructing the most cost-effective device. The first place winners were Hanna Prestridge, Calli Harmon, Abby Rapier, and Julia Ferrin from Thatcher High School. The second place team, also from Thatcher, included Keena Polen, Amanda Orr, Breann Ellett, and Braydee Sanders.
The Popsicle Tower involved the construction of a water tower. The goal of this competition was to construct a tower using only popsicle sticks and hot glue. The tower had to be free-standing and hold as much weight as possible. Points were awarded based on the height of the tower, the cost of the building materials, and the load supported by the tower prior to failure. The winners of this team exercise were Dylan Barnes, Kolby Pettit, Porter Johnson, and Gavin Bingham from Thatcher High School. The second place team included Payson Lutz, Stuart Lines, Christian Farley, and Brock DeSpain, also from Thatcher.
New to Engineering Day this year was the Mining Competition. Jeff Tysoe, an engineer with Freeport and instructor of the Introduction to Mining Engineering class at EAC, and his team designed and ran the competition which challenged students to build a model, open-pit copper mine that was economical using different colored wooden blocks. The first place winners were Straton Baldwin, Grant Montierth, Sean Silvas, and Epoch Fry from Safford High School. Second place winners were Wesley Conger, Mathew Basteen, Braden Basteen, and Kade Stacy from Duncan.
The first place overall winners were Holly Smith, Alex Jaramillo, Grayce Otto, and Kolter Hubble from St. Johns High School. The second place winners were Jayden Stailey, Layton Alder, Parker Barney, and Jensen Mitchell from Thatcher High School. The third place winners were Graden Swan, Tianna Lambson, Rebecca Clark, and Cassie Berni from Safford High School.
All prizes and awards were handed out to the winners at an assembly at the end of the day.
Eastern Arizona College offers an associate’s degree in Engineering which is designed to transfer to almost any university. By taking classes at EAC, the tuition is significantly lower and the class sizes are much smaller. The program continues to grow thanks to Engineering Day and the great support of the community.

Initially this might seem quite worrying but it really isn’t anything to be concerned about as bone grafts are frequently carried out in preparation for dental implant treatment.
Why You Might Need a Bone Graft
When you first see an implant dentist, one of the things they will want to check is how much bone you have in the area where you wish to have dental implants. In order for your implants to be a complete success, they do need to be inserted into a certain amount of healthy bone because they need to fully integrate with your jawbone to provide a strong and stable foundation for your implant teeth.
One of the problems with tooth loss is that it can ultimately lead to bone loss in your jawbone, as without the stimulation provided by your natural tooth roots, old bone cells are not renewed and gradually the amount of available bone will diminish. This can create considerable problems for denture wearers as a denture relies quite heavily on the bony ridge that used to support your teeth for retention. It can also affect the stability of your remaining teeth. This is where having dental implants can be extremely useful as it protects your jawbone against any further bone loss and helps to stabilize your remaining teeth.
What to Expect If You Do Have a Bone Graft
If you do need a bone graft then we have an experienced bone grafting surgeon here at Envy Smile Dental Spa who has all the necessary expertise and experience to make sure the treatment is a success and that it will be carried out in a way that is comfortable for you. If you only require a very small amount of bone, we may even be able to place the bone graft at the same time as your dental implant but otherwise it will be carried out beforehand and you will need to allow several months for the grafting material to fully integrate with your jawbone. Although this may add a little extra time to the overall treatment, it’s still well worth it as a properly planned dental implant can last for many years and will provide excellent results.
Where do Bone Grafts Come from?
There are a number of different materials that can be used during a bone graft as for example we can take the bone from another site in your body such as your hip or your chin. This can be advantageous as your body will recognize the bone is being your own so rejection would be extremely unlikely. Another option is to use donor bone which will have been specially treated and sterilized to make sure it is safe for use. These days we often use artificial bone materials which are very sophisticated. These contain growth proteins that help your body to generate its own bone cells, gradually replacing the artificial bone graft. The end result is a strong and stable jawbone that can easily support your new dental implants. | 591 | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107891624.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20201026175019-20201026205019-00683.warc.gz | 0.954911 |

General Conference 2016 of The United Methodist Church concluded without a holy war. For all the drama predicted from a supposed schism, radical structural change envisioned by a new version of Plan UMC (it failed the Constitutional test again), an unsuccessful attempt at tenure episcopacy for U.S. bishops to a predicted raucous debate and protracted demonstrations on human sexuality, General Conference had its skirmishes but no war.
Some have cited the Council of Bishop’s response as a reason why. Here is what we asked:
First, “defer all votes on human sexuality.”
Second, “refer the matter to a special commission named by the Council of Bishops (COB).”
Third, ask the “special commission to submit their work to a special session of GC prior to the 2020 GC.”
Why the COB offering brought forth a relative truce on schism, floor battles on human sexuality was a God thing. What happened or didn’t happen was beyond all we could “imagine or think.”
Folks who have read every jot and tittle of the COB proposal do have a matter interpretive discourse that our Disciplinary skirmishes remain in vogue. For example, how does one interpret this sentence: “We (COB) will continue to explore options to help the church live in grace with one another-including ways to avoid further complaints, trials and harm while we uphold the Discipline.” Which takes precedence? “ways to avoid complaints, trials and harm or upholding the Book of Discipline?
Here’s the response guiding me during my 20 years as a Bishop. Do your best to be as grace-filled leader. If a complaint is filed, do not avoid it, deny it or make a public scene of it. Administer the Disciplinary process of supervisory response and be committed to finding just resolutions. If those processes do not work, follow the process still even if it leads to a Committee on Investigation that leads to a trial.
In my 20-year episcopacy, two complaints have resulted in trials.
On another note, the “way forward” leads to my last Annual Conference in the active episcopacy. I look forward to wonderful worship, life-giving legislation, reports of the church in mission, snapshots of General Conference from our delegation, the memorial, retirement and ordination service, etc. Finally, I am looking forward to completing the $1 million goal for Africa University.
In our lifetime and beyond it, annually, eight students will receive scholarship for their education at Africa University when we raise $1 million dollars. Be prepared to give what it takes to finish what we started. I am. Dr. Jim Salley, vice chancellor of Africa University, will make that appeal. With God’s help and education, the abundant life for the “least of these” comes to fruition.
