This style and colour is gorgeous. Love it. In this style, I sized down a little smaller than usual, just for more support running. 🤩
I love my terrazzo sets, not only are they super comfy and versatile, but I love all the hidden bonus's - side hip pocket for phone (that actually keeps my phone in place and isn't annoying to run with!), zipper pocket for my car keys, some of the tops have a pocket for the phone as well. I feel good when I run in these, they breathe well and fit in all the right places. Almost like a second skin. My 2 daughters have the matching sets as well- and its fun working out as a family- all matching!
I love this bra. Pretty and supportive and non restrictive. Perfect for a run, a ride, the gym or lounging with my kids in matching outfits ☺️
As a curvy runner I have the size L and the bra kept the ladies very snug and comfortable. | <urn:uuid:5cb86289-f5a4-4b7b-98f2-be2e5078c4ce> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://malorepublic.com.au/products/malo-wander-bra-amethyst | 2024-03-01T04:28:53Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.956543 | 207 |
Bank loans grew 13.9 percent year-on-year in October, faster than September’s 13.4-percent expansion, on sustained demand for credit despite the rising interest rates, data from the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas show.
The BSP said that on a month-on-month seasonally adjusted basis, outstanding universal and commercial bank loans, net of reverse repurchases or RRPs, went up by 1.1 percent.
“The sustained growth in credit activity and ample liquidity will continue to support the recovery of economic activity and domestic demand,” the BSP said in a statement.
“The BSP will continue to take all necessary action to ensure that liquidity and bank lending conditions remain consistent with promoting price and financial stability,” it said.
Rizal Commercial Banking Corp. chief economist Michael Ricafort earlier said bank loans and domestic liquidity could still accelerate in the coming months amid measures to further reopen the economy towards greater normalcy.
He said government measures such as the resumption of in-person schooling and further boosting of local and foreign tourism would support the rising demand for loans.
Outstanding loans to residents, net of RRPs, increased 13.4 percent in October after growing by 13.1 percent in the previous month.
Outstanding loans for production activities went up by 12.5 percent in October from a 12.3-percent expansion in September, driven by the growth in loans to key industries such as real estate activities (14.0 percent); manufacturing (17.7 percent); wholesale and retail trade, repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles (11.5 percent); financial and insurance activities (12.8 percent); information and communication (25.0 percent); and electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply (10.9 percent).
Consumer loans to residents climbed 22.6 percent in October from 20.6 percent in the previous month, on increased credit card loans, motor vehicle loans and salary-based general purpose consumption loans.
Outstanding loans to non-residents also grew by 33.0 percent in October, from a 26.6-percent expansion in September.
Preliminary data also showed that domestic liquidity or the money supply in the financial system grew by 5.4 percent year-on-year to about P15.4 trillion in October from the 5.2-percent growth in September.
M3 also increased 0.7 percent on a month-on-month seasonally adjusted basis,
Domestic claims went up by 11.0 percent year-on-year in October from 11.2 percent in the previous month on continued improvement in bank lending to the private sector.
Claims on the private sector grew by 10.4 percent in October, from 10.3 percent in September with the expansion in bank lending to non-financial private corporations and households.
Meanwhile, net claims on the central government rose 14.7 percent in October from 16.5 percent in September, owing to the sustained borrowing by the National Government. | <urn:uuid:145c59d2-c28e-4c49-85c3-988ee157c211> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://manilastandard.net/?p=314283289 | 2024-03-01T05:10:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.957755 | 622 |
BEIJING—Chinese leader Xi Jinping hailed former US secretary of state Henry Kissinger as an “old friend” as the two met in Beijing on Thursday.
Kissinger’s visit to China this week has seen him call for a rapprochement between Washington and Beijing, which remain at loggerheads over a range of issues, from human rights to trade and national security.
The 100-year-old diplomat was central to the United States establishing ties with communist China in the 1970s and has maintained close contact with the country’s leaders over the years.
“Chinese people value friendship, and we will never forget our old friend and your historic contribution to promoting the development of China-US relations and enhancing the friendship between the Chinese and American peoples,” President Xi told Kissinger on Thursday, according to state media.
“This not only benefited the two countries, but also changed the world,” Xi added.
“The world is currently experiencing changes not seen in a century, and the international order is undergoing enormous change,” the Chinese leader said.
“China and the United States are once more at a crossroads, and both sides must once again make a choice.”
Kissinger, in response, thanked Xi for hosting him at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse’s building number five—where he met with then premier Zhou Enlai in 1971.
“The relations between our two countries will be central to the peace in the world and to the progress of our societies,” the former diplomat said.
Kissinger secretly flew to Beijing in 1971 on a mission to establish relations with communist China.
The trip set the stage for a landmark visit by former US president Richard Nixon, who sought both to shake up the Cold War and enlist help in ending the Vietnam War.
Washington’s overtures to an isolated Beijing contributed to China’s rise to become a manufacturing powerhouse and the world’s second-largest economy.
Since leaving office, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Kissinger has grown wealthy advising businesses on China— and has warned against a hawkish turn in US policy.
His trip this week also overlapped with a trip by US climate envoy John Kerry, and follows recent visits by Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and Secretary of State Antony Blinken.
“Since 1971, Dr Kissinger has visited China more than 100 times,” CCTV said on Thursday.
State news agency Xinhua reported him as telling defence minister Li Shangfu on Tuesday that, “in today’s world, challenges and opportunities coexist, and both the United States and China should eliminate misunderstandings, coexist peacefully, and avoid confrontation”.
Kissinger also met on Wednesday with top diplomat Wang Yi, who praised Kissinger’s “historic contributions to the ice-breaking development of China-US relations”.
“The US policy toward China needs Kissinger-style diplomatic wisdom and Nixon-style political courage,” Wang said.
Kissinger has long been feted by the American elite and was co-awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for negotiating a ceasefire in Vietnam.
But he is seen by many as an unindicted war criminal for his role in, among other events, expanding the Vietnam War to Cambodia and Laos, supporting coups in Chile and Argentina, and turning a blind eye to Pakistan’s mass atrocities during Bangladesh’s 1971 war of independence. | <urn:uuid:6f0f6b0d-5476-4203-91ae-cb49e45dd2f3> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://manilastandard.net/?p=314351896 | 2024-03-01T04:17:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.949518 | 721 |
Traggo is a tag-based time tracking tool. In Traggo there are no tasks, only tagged time spans. With tags, Traggo tries to be as customizable as possible, for example, if you work on different projects you could add a project-tag. If you like to see statistics from the different things you do, you could add a type-tag with values like email, programming, meeting. You can do it just as you like. In this step by step guide I will show you how to install Traggo on your Synology NAS using Docker.
Traggo 0.3.0 release.This guide works perfectly with the latest

We are born self-centered. We grow up self-centered. And we navigate the waters of life as an adult self-centered.
Making matters worse is the instant-gratification society we are living in right now. It’s what Jonathan Stagno, my great friend and senior advisor to Love God Fear Nothing–calls a YOUniverse!
Today’s cultural force field acts as a filter through which the media promotes self-centeredness and perpetuates its powerful grip on society. The vulnerable people under this attack are chasing success, money, materialism, hedonism, power, achievement, and superficiality. That chase, which I used to be part of, leaves no time or room in the heart for God, let alone others.
The common thread running through and dominating this frightening self-centeredness narrative is ME, MY, AND I:
- I want…
- MY needs…
- What about ME?
People living by this narrative look at everything they encounter through this lens: What can I get out of it? Self-centeredness is rooted in a person’s fleshly desire to please their own interests more than they want to please God. Every act of self-love is rebellion against the authority of God.
BLOWING UP SELF
Jesus created us to do great things well beyond our comprehension and imagination for him and his Kingdom. But unless and until we reject all vestiges of self-centeredness, we will come up short on that goal and sacred responsibility.
God doesn’t want that to be our fate. He wants us to step off our self-absorbed pedestal and elevate him into his right position of Lord. He wants us to channel the energy we’ve been spending loving ourselves to loving him and others. He wants us to close down the “church of self” and disconnect from the YOUniverse.
“Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God.” Romans 8:8
It’s tempting to be selfish rather than humble and to focus only on ourselves and what matters to us. We need to ask God to help us see the value of helping others and their interests above our own. Our goal should be to live a life of servant-hood that exemplifies the love of Jesus.
“Let go of selfish desires and earthly security and focus instead on the interests of God.” Matthew 6:33
Blowing up self is the only way we will ever be able to befriend others, shoulder their burdens, and help them just as Jesus did for us. But how can we handle someone else’s life when it is beyond our capacity to care for those who will not benefit us in some way?
“Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves.” Philippians 2:3
“If a brother or sister is without clothing and in need of daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and be filled,” and yet you do not give them what is necessary for their body, what use is that?” James 2:15-16
“But whoever has the world’s goods, and sees his brother in need and closes his heart against him, how does the love of God abide in him?” 1 John 3:17 | <urn:uuid:007ff83a-bd33-48e9-a1e4-7e8d15f30a29> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://markaffleck.com/were-living-in-a-youniverse/ | 2024-03-01T04:07:32Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.965997 | 716 |

Pax8, the leading cloud commerce marketplace, today announced its CEO and Co-founder, John Street, has been named the 2022 CEO of the Year by ColoradoBiz Magazine. The honor recognizes Street’s excellence in business leadership, company performance, and civic engagement. Nominations for the annual award were submitted throughout the year and judged by a panel made up of ColoradoBiz magazine’s editorial board. Street and nine other finalists for the distinguished award will be profiled in the Winter 2022 issue of ColoradoBiz Magazine.
“I am deeply honored to be recognized for this prestigious award, given the caliber of leadership in companies across the state,” said Street. “My success as CEO is only as good as our amazing leadership team and every employee I get to work with daily. A special thanks to everyone at Pax8 for their hard work to fuel our growth and success as we work to become the world’s favorite cloud marketplace.”
As CEO of the Year, John was recognized for his legacy and passion as an award-winning entrepreneur and CEO for building disruptive technology that helps businesses grow and thrive. Highly skilled at turning around failing companies and building innovative ones, John is a visionary and institutes a human-asset approach to building extraordinary employee cultures. Focused on nurturing a work culture where teams can learn, grow, and have fun, he has an innate ability to create an environment of continual change and reinvention.
Throughout his career, John built four start-ups in the state – Telephone Express, USA.Net, MX Logic, and in 2012, Pax8 – all of which garnered Inc. 5000 status. In 2022, Pax8 earned its place on the Inc. 5000 list for the fifth consecutive year and was named on the Denver Business Journal’s Fast 50 list for the fourth year in a row. Most recently, the tech company landed on the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 list claiming the 131st spot.
John’s vision of Pax8 becoming the world’s favorite cloud commerce marketplace where IT professionals buy cloud products and services is starting to unfold with its award-winning technology and standout company culture. Despite the pandemic, the start-up has grown from 550 employees in 2020 to 1400 in 2022 with a global expansion into EMEA and APAC regions and six acquisitions. Today, Pax8 partners with 25,000 managed service providers and 80+ vendors who serve more than 400,000 small and medium-sized businesses across the world.
“This year’s CEO of the Year nominees were an impressive group as I can recall, in terms of their individual accomplishments and that of their companies,” said Mike Taylor, Editor at ColoradoBiz. “John Street embodies what the CEO of the Year award seeks to recognize. The business and workplace culture he envisioned and then proceeded to build at Pax8, along with his community involvement, made an obvious impression on the judging panel.” | <urn:uuid:39cffe14-5374-431e-9715-2b88cd97226c> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://martechedge.com/news/pax8s-john-street-named-ceo-of-the-year-by-coloradobiz-magazine | 2024-03-01T04:26:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.970477 | 626 |

Limited Preview Query Translation Tool Is Now Available for Developers to Learn and Participate in the Development Process
TigerGraph, provider of the leading advanced analytics and ML platform for connected data, today announced its commitment to support openCypher, a popular query language for building graph database applications. Developers can now access a limited preview translation tool to learn how openCypher support will appear in TigerGraph’s flagship graph query language, GSQL. Support for openCypher will give developers more choice to build or migrate graph applications to TigerGraph’s scalable, secure, and fully managed graph database platform.
“Our mission at TigerGraph has always been to bring the power of graph to all, and our support for openCypher helps us do just that. We are empowering enterprises to accelerate their graph technology adoption via our advanced graph analytics and ML platform,” said Yu Xu, CEO and founder of TigerGraph. “With openCypher support, we are pushing the bounds of graph innovation and arming developers with another way to adopt and expand their use of graph to find competitive insights in their data.”
Developers who are familiar with openCypher can now learn how to harness the power of TigerGraph to achieve superior performance and scalability for in-database computation and analysis of relationships within their data. With access to TigerGraph’s sophisticated GSQL language, developers will experience several benefits, including:
For example, PageRank is a popular graph algorithm used to calculate the relative importance of a web page based on how different pages reference each other. The PageRank algorithm can be coded with only 10 lines of GSQL code across all sizes of data, while openCypher can only code a portion of the algorithm.
The openCypher-to-GSQL translation tool is now available to the openCypher developer community to access a side-by-side comparison of openCypher queries and the equivalent GSQL queries with proposed openCypher syntax support. With this limited preview, developers are encouraged to learn how openCypher will appear in GSQL and provide valuable feedback to guide the incremental buildout of full support features. Those who want to learn advanced GSQL can now access TigerGraph’s industry-leading offerings, including its distributed computing database, in-database machine learning workbench, and graph data science library, which consists of more than 55 graph algorithms.
In addition, TigerGraph’s openCypher support aligns with support for industry standard GQL. TigerGraph serves on the ISO steering committee that is developing GQL, the new international standard query language that will be available in early 2024. | <urn:uuid:664bd126-0b5b-43e7-8ff5-0d56a4c6927b> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://martechedge.com/news/tigergraph-announces-commitment-to-support-opencypher-in-gsql | 2024-03-01T05:28:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.919585 | 564 |

In 2021, Marubeni-Komatsu undertook the momentous task of overhauling the biggest excavator in Scotland, the substantial PC2000-8 weighing in at an impressive 200-tonne.
At 7 years old, Tarmac Dunbar recognised the need for a major refit which would extend the PC2000’s lifetime for at least another 5 years. Playing a significant role in supplying the cement manufacturing process with essential limestone, the PC2000 handles the blasted rock from Tarmac’s quarry and moves it to the dump trucks for delivery to the crushing process.
Recognising the experience & expertise of Marubeni-Komatsu as the OEM, Tarmac Dunbar were comfortable relying on Marubeni-Komatsu to rebuild all major components with genuine parts including an overhaul of the 11-tonne bucket, pins & bushes etc. The entire process needed to be conducted at a nearby location to the quarry, due to the difficulty in transporting a machine of that size, where a team of Komatsu fitters and engineers could complete the job uninterrupted, completing the project in only 7 weeks. This was within the customer’s budget and ahead of schedule.
Kevin Henderson, Marubeni-Komatsu’s lead field technician commented ‘As well as many operational parts of the excavator being upgraded, we also worked on the driver’s comfort and safety. Work in this area included replacement of the air-suspended operator’s seat. There is even a lunch box that is linked into the climate control system that keeps the driver’s lunch warm or cold’.
The entire process and scale of the operation was captured by a timelapse video:
The benefits of a Komatsu Machine Rebuild:
- Reduction of capital spend over same period
- Meet operational targets without replacing machines
- Extend machine lifespan
- Improve machine reliability and up-time
- Cost savings of up to 40% by using Remanufactured replacement parts over brand-new
The Rebuild Process:
- Machine inspection and Rebuild scoping session
- Rebuild plan and specifications agreed with customer
- Disassembly, and cause of failure review
- Components checked, tested repainted and fitted
- Product improvement, re-assembly and pre-start tests
Final test and any final adjustments are completed. | <urn:uuid:180c6c14-764b-498a-a18f-841555d17188> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://marubeni-komatsu.co.uk/news/rebuild-of-scotlands-largest-excavator-the-pc2000-8/ | 2024-03-01T04:10:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.938283 | 484 |
An Osteopath provides gentle and specific care while also addressing related conditions that can arise from a certain discomfort.
It is important to comprehend the guiding principles of osteopathic medicine.
These consist of the following:
- Body, spirit, and mind work together as a single integrated organism.
- The body has self-regulatory systems that are naturally capable of modifying, defending, and repairing themselves.
- Structure and function are incredibly intertwined in our bodies
- The first three principles are the foundation for the Osteopathic approach
Osteopathy is a form of complementary medicine that places a strong emphasis on the gentle manual manipulation of the body’s joints and muscular tissue. A comprehensive, whole-body approach to therapy is used. Hence, without the use of medicines, it uses manual “hands-on” procedures to restore normal biomechanics and increase circulation.

Aging in place has been a trend among senior citizens for the past 5 years. Recent studies show that 87% of individuals 65+ want to stay in their current home as they age. This means their homes need to be remodeled to create a safer living environment for them to continue living there.
The room that quite possibly needs the most attention is the master bathroom. Did you know when a senior citizen falls, it occurs in the bathroom 80% of the time? In this blog, we’ll discuss how Bell House Medical can make your master bathroom safer so you can age in place.
When a senior citizen falls, there is a 50% chance they will fall again in the next 6 months. Once you make the decision to remain in your current home, do NOT procrastinate.
The longer you wait to make the necessary changes to your home, the greater the chance a severe fall will occur. Bell House Medical offers numerous solutions to help make your bathroom safe for the long-haul, such as:
- Grab Bars – Grab Bars are an easy way to add a sturdy surface to hold onto to help you sit, stand and balance safely.
- Accessible Showers – A zero-threshold entry shower allows you to step right in and out of your shower safely without lifting a leg.
- Walk-In Tubs – A walk-in tub allows you to take a relaxing bath without the dangers of climbing into and out of a regular bathtub.
- Hand-Held Showers – Hand-held shower heads make it easier for individuals to bathe themselves when used in conjunction with a shower chair or bench.
- Shower Wheelchairs – A shower wheelchair works best when used in a zero-threshold shower and will make showering much easier.
- Toilet Seats and Commodes – A 3-in-1 commode can be placed over your toilet to raise the seat height. A 3-in-1 commode can also be used by your bedside if walking to the bathroom is difficult or impossible.
Having all of these features installed in your bathroom will greatly reduce the chances of a life-threatening fall occurring. But when Bell House Medical remodels your bathroom, we don’t leave it looking medicinal… we will enhance the aesthetics and give it a spa-like feel.
If you’re making the decision to age in place, is your bathroom ready for the next 10, 15 or 20 years? If not, give us a call and we can implement features that will make your bathroom safe for years and years to come! | <urn:uuid:8b03c1be-ebdf-4768-875a-69586e33ccef> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://mastergrabbar.com/blog/bathroom/how-can-bell-house-medical-make-your-bathroom-safe | 2024-03-01T04:19:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.914495 | 530 |

In December 2013, Roads Minister Robert Goodwill announced that the MOT test will be amended to include an inspection of the diesel particulate filter (DPF). Since the announcement, we have had many queries about the type of inspection that will take place.
Following discussions with the Department for Transport, the inspection will initially be restricted to a visual examination for the presence of a DPF or any diesel catalytic converter (DCAT), in addition to the metered smoke check.
Testers will have to make sure that every vehicle with a DPF and/or DCAT fitted by the manufacturer as standard is still present on the vehicle. If a DPF/and or DCAT has been removed, then the vehicle will fail the test. This is regardless of the result of the metered smoke check.
We expect the amendments to section 7.1 of the inspection manual and the new reasons for rejection to be in place during February 2014.
Further details will be issued in a special notice nearer the time.

An Employee of D&D Drilling was purportedly electrocuted during the course and scope of his employment. A claim for death benefits was filed by a woman who identified herself as the “live-in concubine” of the deceased employee. In order to establish her entitlement to death benefits, the claimant must show that she was financially dependent upon the deceased employee.
At her deposition, she testified that while she was pregnant with the child of another man, she had no source of financial support other than from the deceased employee. However, further investigation revealed that the claimant signed an agreement with a law firm to place her unborn child for adoption. During the term of her pregnancy, the law firm paid the claimant living expenses, including rent, utilities, vehicle insurance, and groceries, each month.
Employer filed a Motion for Summary Judgment praying that the claimant’s claim for benefits be dismissed on the grounds that she violated the fraud provisions of the Louisiana Workers’ Compensation Act, thereby forfeiting her entitlement to any benefits. The workers’ compensation judge granted the motion and dismissed the claimant’s claim with prejudice, and the claimant appealed.
The claimant urged the appellate court to reverse the judgment on the grounds that a genuine issue of material fact existed regarding the amount of money paid. The court, however, dismissed this argument, finding that the amount of money paid was not a genuine issue that would preclude summary judgment. Rather, the issue was the claimant’s failure to disclose that she received any additional support at all. The court noted that the claimant was specifically asked numerous times during her deposition whether she had any sources of financial support other than the deceased employee, and that on each of these occasions, she failed to disclose information about the payments made by the law firm in conjunction with the adoption process. Because the claimant failed to introduce any evidence to refute the employer’s claims of fraud, the order granting summary judgment to the employer was affirmed.

Multi-tiered Systems of Support (MTSS)
Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) is a framework that guides schools and teachers to provide appropriate instruction and interventions to ensure all students receive the education and supports they need to be successful in school.
MTSS is a continuous process that is applicable to all students, ranging from Tier 1 interventions for the general student population through Tier 3 for individual students. MTSS incorporates performance data and progress monitoring to inform evidence-based decisions about the intensity and duration of interventions.
When interventions don’t lead to improved outcomes, the school or the student’s parents or guardian may initiate a request for a special education evaluation.
A fundamental concept of MTSS is that all students receive core academic and behavioral supports, and additional targeted instruction and interventions are provided to students as needed, based on a continuous review of the child’s performance; root cause analysis of problem areas; and refinements to strategies, supports and interventions to address what is not working.
Tiers of academic and behavioral instruction and supports
Core Instruction and Supports: General academic and behavioral support, differentiated for all students in a general education setting.
Targeted Supplemental Instruction and Intervention: More focused, targeted instruction, interventions, and supplemental supports, provided in a general education setting (in addition to Tier 1).
Intensive Individualized Instruction and Intervention: The most intense instruction and intervention that is made available and provided in a small group general education setting.
Determining the appropriate tier of support/intervention
Teacher (or parent, administrator, or counselor) recognizes a consistent need exhibited by the student. Discrepancy in the student’s academic, social/emotional, behavioral, and/or physical ability may signal the need for additional academic or behavioral supports.
School-level team will engage in the problem-solving process to determine the root cause.
School-level team will strategize and develop a cooperative plan that includes tiered interventions to close the gap for the student. | <urn:uuid:5b2377ae-8cee-4dd6-9648-a902bc927767> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://mcpherson.cps.edu/apps/pages/index.jsp?uREC_ID=4358278&type=d&pREC_ID=2555788 | 2024-03-01T03:29:04Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.923922 | 420 |

Keeping your car looking great requires a bit of effort, and one of the areas that can often be overlooked is the wheels. Over time, wheels can accumulate dirt, grime, and brake dust, which not only looks unsightly but can also cause damage if left unchecked. So, let’s take a closer look at how to clean car wheels properly.
Step 1: Gather your supplies
Before you get started, you’ll need a few things. Here’s a list of what you’ll need:
A bucket of water
Wheel cleaner – We recommend ether 3D BDX which is a reactive cleaner, it reacts to metal particles AKA brake dust. or 3D wheel cleaner which is a mild acid. for maintenance cleaning 3D orange degreasser / 3D super citrus works very well.
Wheel sealant (optional) – 3D bead it up or any ceramic based sealant
Step 2: Spray on wheel cleaner
Once you have your supplies ready, it’s time to start cleaning. Begin by spraying the wheel cleaner onto the wheels. Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions and wear gloves to protect your hands from any harsh chemicals.
Step 3: Scrub with a wheel brush
After spraying the cleaner, use a wheel brush to scrub the wheels thoroughly. Be sure to get into all the nooks and crannies to remove all the dirt and grime. The bristles of the brush should be firm enough to clean effectively but not so hard that they scratch the wheels.
Step 4: Rinse off the wheels
Once you’ve scrubbed the wheels, it’s time to rinse them off with water. Use a hose or pressure washer to ensure that all the cleaner and dirt are washed away.
Step 5: Dry the wheels
After rinsing off the wheels, dry them with a clean microfiber towel. Be sure to dry them completely, including any crevices where water may collect.
Step 6: Apply wheel sealant (optional)
If you want to protect your wheels from future damage and make them easier to clean next time, consider applying a wheel sealant. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully to ensure that you apply it correctly.
In conclusion, cleaning car wheels may seem like a daunting task, but with the right tools and techniques, it can be quite easy. Follow these steps, and you’ll have your wheels looking shiny and new in no time. Remember to clean your wheels regularly to keep them looking great and to prevent any long-term damage.

Though large tech corporations leverage their dominance to promote use of their own web browsers, you do have a choice in which browser you use. Many of the alternative browsers that aren't so mainstream offer unique or interesting capabilities, such as greater customization, added privacy, and different browsing tools.
If you’re like the majority of web users, you’re using Google Chrome, which means you’re missing a few very useful features. For example, Chrome offers no reading mode, which you find in many of the alternatives included here. This mode lets you read a news article in a cleaned-up view without all the screaming clutter that adorns today’s web pages (present company included).
Perhaps of greatest importance is that Chrome’s built-in ad blocker doesn’t offer true ad blocking and privacy—only ad blocking that permits its own ad network to function unimpeded. Google has announced that even effective ad-blocking extensions won’t fully work in the future. Several browsers included here let you install plugins that block all ads and tracking. Some browsers in this list go even further, offering turbocharged privacy that includes VPN and Tor encryption.
A big factor in browser choice is customization. Chrome and Firefox offer backgrounds, but Vivaldi takes customization to new levels and Opera features a customizable side toolbar and a tile-based Speed Dial home page for easy access to your most-frequented websites.
Below, you'll find some alternative browsers that are well worth your consideration. We’ve downloaded and installed them all to assure they work as advertised. If you have a favorite lesser-known browser that’s not listed here, please feel free to add it in the comments section.
Best for Privacy and Earning Crypto: Brave
In addition to being one of the most privacy-focused browsers you can find, Brave wants to change the web economy from its foundations up. The browser blocks standard web ads by default, but beyond that, it introduces a new way for websites to monetize your attention. Like the Bing search engine, Brave can even reward you for your browsing, with a cut of the ad revenue you generate. Your rewards come in the form of Brave’s own cryptocurrency, BAT (Basic Attention Token), and they’re based on advertisers paying you for your attention. Your rewards are capped at $1 million dollars of tokens, which is nothing to sneeze at.
Brave is based on Chromium, Google’s open-source project underpinning the company's Chrome browser. It features all the standard browser features—bookmarks, history, extensions, themes, and syncing. It produced the best results on the EFF's Cover Your Tracks privacy test, which susses out fingerprint tracking vulnerability, as it was the only browser tested for which the test reported a randomized browser fingerprint. For even more privacy and web anonymity, the browser comes with a Tor mode built in (saving you from installing separate software), and Brave offers a VPN service. The also-private Brave Search recently added limited Bing-like AI chat capability, Summarizer.
Best Interface: Colibri
Colibri offers a truly different take on the web browser: It has no tabs! You need to sign up for a free account with your email to use it—another difference from most other browsers. Minimalists will love Colibri's pared-down interface, which dispenses with all the doodads and whirlygigs found in today's leading browsers. It shows just six buttons at the top: Back, Forward, Reload, Add to Links, Web Search, and Toggle View.
When you log in, your saved links, lists, and feeds appear. Instead of opening sites in new tabs, you get a choice of a new window or replacing the current window's contents. The Toggle view shows your pinned site links in tiles for easy access. Colibri blocks third-party trackers, ads, and malicious hosts, but don't expect extensions or other extras. If less is more for you, then Colibri is your browser. The HTML5Test website reports that Colibri has a high level of website compatibility, but the EFF's Cover Your Tracks tool reports that it doesn't protect you from tracking, so caveat emptor.
Best for Unique Features and Media Sniffer: Maxthon
One of my favorite unique features in Maxthon is its Resource Sniffer. It lets you find and download pictures, videos, music, and other files that are part of the webpage you're visiting. Another standout option, Split Screen, has been slow to appear in standard browsers like Chrome, Edge, and Firefox. Newer additions to the browser's toolset include synchronizable notes, a password saver, and built-in screenshot capabilities, though you can find those in other browsers. Maxthon ditched its cloud storage ambitions and is now just a regular browser.
Like Opera, Maxthon includes a customizable left button rail for notes, favorites, RSS feeds, and so forth. The highly customizable browser includes other intriguing features such as a built-in screenshot tool and a Night Mode that turns web pages black with white text to save your eyes during late-night web reading.
Maxthon's documentation claims that it doesn't do any tracking of your browsing. You have the option to install a free VPN called BrightVPN at installation. Unlike the proxy built into Opera, this one is a full VPN, cloaking all internet traffic to your device. Finally, Maxthon boasts a built-in blockchain wallet option for Web3 compatibility, but you can find those in Brave and Opera, or add one as an extension in just about any other browser.
Best for Built-In VPN: Opera
Opera has been an alternative browser since before several of the current leaders in the category existed. Its developers are responsible for introducing many standard features we now take for granted, including basic things like tabs, built-in search, a pop-up blocker, and page zooming. Not all of Opera’s novel developments have lasted the test of time, which says something about its ingenuity, or at least its willingness to try unconventional features. For example, at one point Opera let you use it as a server so that you could host your own photo galleries or chat rooms and access them from anywhere. It also once had a built-in email client, a Turbo mode of cached websites, and even a BitTorrent client. (Turbo mode remains on Opera’s mobile versions.)
Opera is the first browser with a built-in (and very good) VPN, a cryptocurrency wallet, and built-in ad blocking. The Opera Flow feature takes syncing between mobile a desktop to a new level. The latest? Opera has announced that the browser will integrate ChatGPT features, starting with a Shorten summarization feature.
Though ad blocking isn’t turned on by default in Opera you can get it by checking the option called “Block ads and surf the web up to three times faster.” Like many browser alternatives, Opera runs on top of the Chromium code base, which powers Chrome, so you’re unlikely to run into site incompatibilities.
Best for Anonymity: Tor
Tor is more than a browser; it’s a complete privacy software stack. Tor traffic is not only encrypted, but also forwarded to multiple nodes, with each successively encrypting it again. At the end your traffic is inside multiple layers, like those of an onion. Hence the name Tor, which stands for the onion router. Private Tor sites even use the .onion extension. Those sites make up what's known colloquially as the dark web.
The browser itself is based on Firefox, with some privacy extensions and settings locked, so standard websites display just fine inside this private browsing space. The big downside is all that routing and encryption slow down your browsing considerably. Despite that, it's the ultimate tool for people in repressive countries who need to circumvent internet filtering or those who simply demand privacy and anonymity. For even more of that, you can set it up so that the ISP doesn't know you're using it by using a bridge relay or by running it in Tails, a portable OS you run from a USB key. If you don't want to install extra software, Brave (see entry above) offers a built-in Tor private browsing option.
Best for Customizability: Vivaldi
Coming from one of the creators of the Opera browser, Vivaldi offers customization galore and has garnered passionate fans among the technorati. It’s based on the Chromium open source browser code that’s managed by Google and used in its Chrome browser. You can enable, disable, and tweak every minute aspect of the browser. Vivaldi resembles Opera in using a tile-based start page, tab previews, mouse gestures, and a side rail of buttons for frequent actions like note-taking, downloads, history, and favorites.
Standout features include a split screen, clutter-free printing, and an Image Properties view complete with a histogram. A favorite trick of mine is that the browser window changes color to match the site you’re on. Vivaldi now includes an email client as well as Mastodon integration. In another great example of stretching our concept of what a browser is, Vivaldi lets you control Philips Hue smart bulbs based on the browser's color pattern! | <urn:uuid:8805db3d-9735-4323-a29b-cc0c5d0b2f76> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://me.pcmag.com/en/browsers/15627/the-best-alternative-web-browsers-for-2023 | 2024-03-01T04:03:14Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.92682 | 1,946 |
Caterpillar cuts forecast for third straight quarter
For the third consecutive quarter, Caterpillar cut its earnings forecast and posted profits that trailed analysts’ estimates as mining-equipment sales declined on slower commodity demand, Bloomberg reported.
The world’s largest manufacturer of mining and construction machinery saw second-quarter net income drop to $1.45 a share from $2.54 a year earlier, the company said in a statement. That missed the $1.68 average of 19 estimates compiled by Bloomberg. Sales declined to $14.6 billion from $17.4 billion, less than the $14.9 billion average of 16 estimates.
The company forecast 2013 earnings of about $6.50 a share on sales of $56 billion to $58 billion. In April, it predicted full-year profit of about $7 a share on revenue of $57 billion to $61 billion. Analysts projected profit of $6.81 a share on sales of $58.6 billion.
However, commodity prices have fallen and the slowdown in China has slowed the commodities supercycle leading to slower sales for Caterpillar and other mining equipment manufactures.
Swedish mining equipment manufacturers Atlas Copco and Sandvick each announced in July that the mining slow down has hit them hard.
Atlas Copco announced that it would be cutting its overall workforce as it faces weaker demand for its drill rigs and loaders from the global mining sector (ME, July 19).
Robust activity in services and industrial equipment stemmed a fall in group profit and orders but the company forecast that demand for mining gear would slip further in the near term, Reuters reported.
Sandvik reported that its orders for mining machines fell by 35 percent this year.
Caterpillar has expanded in mining through acquisitions over the past two years, making resource industries the company’s largest unit by revenue. Now it’s battling for customers as commodity demand slows. Mining capital spending will drop 11 percent this year and 14 percent next year, based on estimates from the 40 largest global mining companies, according to Volkmann.
Caterpillar machinery retail sales reported by dealers fell 8 percent globally in the quarter. The Asia-Pacific region posted a 21 percent decline.
Caterpillar’s sales to customers in the natural resources industries grew to 32 percent of total equipment sales in 2012.
Under Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Doug Oberhelman, the company bought mining equipment makers Bucyrus International Inc. for $8.8 billion in 2011 and ERA Mining Machinery Ltd. in China for about HK$5 billion ($640 million) last year. Caterpillar took a $580 million goodwill writedown in the fourth quarter after discovering what it called accounting “misconduct” at part of ERA.
Caterpillar said in April it planned to buy back $1 billion of shares. | <urn:uuid:3fd90379-4d3f-4203-bdde-5e3514b0e507> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://me.smenet.org/webContent.cfm?context=1&webarticleid=799 | 2024-03-01T04:13:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.945936 | 586 |

- Frequently asked questions concerning sinus infections

If you have ever suffered from a sinus infection you know how painful and debilitating this disease can be. This is why we decided to put together a detailed evidence based overview of medical and natural treatment options for sinus infection.
Sinuses are four major pairs of hollow air-filled spaces present in the human skull (1). These are linked to the space between the nostrils and the nasal passage at the back of your nose. Sinuses help in insulating the skull, reducing its weight, and allowing the voice to resonate within it. The sinus cavities provide defense against viruses and bacteria (germs).
The sinuses are air-filled spaces. They are situated:
Sinus infection is a common condition in which the interior layer of the sinuses becomes inflamed. It is mostly caused by a viral infection and often resolves on its own within two or three weeks. Sinuses are small, air-filled spaces present behind our forehead and cheekbones.
This is how paranasal sinuses look like:
The mucus secreted by the sinuses usually drains into the nose through tiny channels. In a sinus infection, these channels become obstructed due to inflammation and swelling of sinus linings. Sinus infection is a widespread health problem. It affects 31 million people in the United States. Americans shell out more than $1 billion annually on the treatment of sinus infection. The doctor visits due to sinus infection are tallied at nearly six million every year and $150 million is spent on medications. Patients suffering from allergies, respiratory disorders and structural obstruction in the nose or sinuses, or individuals with weak immune systems are more vulnerable to sinus infection. A bad bout of flu or cold is often confused as sinus infection because many symptoms are the same, such as headache, facial pain, runny nose and nasal congestion.
A sinus infection that develops close to the brain can be possibly fatal, if not treated. In some cases, it may extend to the brain.
Normally sinuses have a lining of a thin stratum of mucus that traps germs, dust and other foreign particles in the air. Minuscule hair-like projections present in the sinuses move the mucus (and whatever is trapped in it) towards small openings that lead to the posterior part of the throat. From here, it moves down to the stomach. This continual process is a regular body function.
Infection of sinus cavities obstructs the normal flow of mucus from the sinuses to the back of the throat. The small hair-like "sweepers" become clogged when infections or allergies cause tiny nasal tissues to swell.
This swelling traps mucus in the sinuses.
A sinus infection can trigger a headache or strain in the eyes, cheek area, and nose or on one side of the head. A person suffering from sinus infection may also have a cough, fever, sore throat, smelly breath, and nasal congestion with thick nasal secretions. It is a commonly encountered medical condition classified as acute sinus infection which has a sudden onset or chronic sinus infection which is long term.
From the medical point of view sinus infections can be divided into four main groups - recurrent, chronic, subacute and acute sinusitis (2).
Acute sinus infection or acute rhinosinusitis causes the spaces around your nasal passages (sinuses) to swell up and become inflamed. This hinders drainage and leads to the accumulation of mucus. If you are suffering from acute sinusitis, you might find it difficult to breathe through your nose. The area around your eyes and face will feel swollen, and you might have excruciating facial pain or a throbbing headache. It is usually caused by the common cold. Most cases of acute sinusitis resolve by themselves but may require medical attention if bacterial infection develops.
Acute sinusitis generally lasts less than four weeks. Sinusitis lasting between 4 to 8 weeks is usually called subacute. If 4 or more flares of acute sinusitis occur in a year, it is called a recurrent sinusitis.
Medicines are usually effective against acute sinusitis. Successful treatment counters harm done to the mucous lining of the sinuses and nearby bone of the skull.
Usually, home remedies are sufficient to treat acute sinusitis. However, persistent sinus infection can lead to serious symptoms and other complications. Sinus infection that lasts more than eight weeks despite medical treatment is called chronic sinusitis.
Chronic sinus infection or chronic sinusitis is a widespread condition in which the sinus cavities around nasal passages become inflamed and swollen — for a minimum of eight weeks, despite treatment attempts. This condition is also known as chronic rhinosinusitis and it interferes with drainage and causes mucus to build up. If you have chronic sinusitis, it may be difficult to breathe through your nose. Chronic sinusitis is usually caused by an infection, but it can also be a result of growths in the sinus cavities. These structural blockades include nasal polyps or a deviated nasal septum. Chronic sinusitis usually affects young and middle-aged adults, but children are also affected by it.
Chronic or recurring sinus infection lasts longer than eight weeks or occurs more than three times a year, with symptoms usually lasting more than twenty days.
Most cases of chronic sinus infection occur after an acute sinusitis infection.
The following factors may cause an acute sinus infection to become chronic.
1. Cold or flu-like diseases
In most cases, acute sinus infection takes place due to a cold or flu-like illness. Common cold and flu are due to microbes called viruses which may spread to the sinuses. In some cases, bacteria attach on to an infection that began with a virus. This can lead to a bacterial sinus infection which can make exacerbate the infection, make it last longer and may cause more damage or harm to the lining of the sinus.
2. Dental infections
In some cases, infection spreads to the cheekbone (maxillary) sinus from a tooth affected by infection.
3. Nasal allergy (allergic rhinitis)
Nasal allergy may cause swelling of the tissues on the inside lining of the nose and obstruct the sinus drainage channels. This makes the sinus cavities more vulnerable to infection.
4. Other causes of a blockage to the sinus drainage channels
You may also experience:
If you suffer from these symptoms for eight weeks or more, it is an indication of chronic sinusitis (5):
You may also have:
Your doctor will check your symptoms and perform a thorough physical examination. He may press and feel your sinuses for tenderness, and tap your teeth to check if you have an inflamed paranasal sinus.
You may also require other tests.
Allergic rhinitis is a medical condition in which inner lining of nose becomes inflamed (6). It is triggered by an allergen, such as dust, pollen, mould or flakes of skin from certain animals.
Symptoms of allergic rhinitis may appear within minutes or hours after you breathe in an allergen. The symptoms may last for several days.
Symptoms that often develop as soon as you breathe in an allergen include:
Other symptoms that appear after a longer while include:
Other causes of sinus infection with symptoms similar to allergic rhinitis include upper respiratory infections (URIs), inflammation, nasal defects and non allergic rhinitis which is not triggered by allergens.
Nasal polyps are soft, painless, benign growths that appear on the inside lining of your nasal passages or sinuses (7). They hang down like grapes or teardrops. They are caused by chronic inflammation due to asthma, allergies, recurring infections, drug sensitivity or some immune disorders. Small nasal polyps may not cause any symptoms. Bump or zit like bigger growths or clusters of nasal polyps can obstruct your nasal passages or lead to breathing problems, a loss of sense of smell, and recurring persistent infections. Nasal polyps can affect all age groups, but they're more common in adults. Medicines can often shrink or eliminate nasal polyps, but surgery is sometimes required to get rid of them. Even after successful treatment, nasal polyps often return.
Nasal polyps are linked with inflammation of the lining of your nasal passages and sinuses that lasts more than eight weeks (chronic rhinosinusitis, also known as chronic sinusitis).
Nasal polyps themselves are soft and painless, so if they're small you may not be aware you have them. Multiple growths or a large polyp may block your nasal passages and sinuses and cause symptoms to appear.
Common signs and symptoms of chronic sinus infection with nasal polyps include:
Visit your doctor and seek medical attention if your symptoms last more than ten days. Symptoms of chronic sinusitis and nasal polyps are similar to those of many other conditions, such as the common cold. Seek emergency medical care or call 911 or your local emergency number if you experience:
Sinus infection can be treated with medicines and home remedies. The goals of treatment of sinusitis are to:
Generally prescribed medicines include pain and fever medications (for example acetaminophen Tylenol), decongestants and mucolytics (drugs that dissolve or breakdown mucus such as, guaifenesin) (9, 10).
Bacterial infection of the sinuses manifests symptoms such as facial pain and nasal discharge resembling pus. These symptoms persist for more than a week and are not responsive to OTC nasal medications.
The five most common bacteria responsible for causing sinus infections are (11):
Even though amoxicillin (Amoxil) is a good first line antibiotic option for an uncomplicated acute sinus infection, many doctors opt for amoxicillin-clavulanate (Augmentin) as the first-choice drug for treatment of a bacterial sinus infection as it is effective against most of the species and strains of bacteria that cause the infection (12, 13).
For patients allergic to penicillin these antibiotics are used:
If a patient does not exhibit signs of improvement after five days of treatment after Amoxil use, the therapy may be exchanged to one of the above mentioned drugs or amoxicillin-clavulanate (Augmentin). Usually, an effective antibiotic treatment needs to last for about ten to fourteen days. But sometimes medicine might need to be given for a week longer. Some antibiotics are now known to also reduce inflammation, besides their anti bacterial activity.
It is sprayed into the nose to clear nasal passages and stuffiness (14).
These topical nasal sprays prevent and treat inflammation of sinus cavities (15). Popular examples include fluticasone (Flonase), triamcinolone (Nasacort AQ),beclomethasone (Beconase AQ) , mometasone (Nasonex) and budesonide (Rhinocort Aqua).
Systemic corticosteroids are taken as pills or injection and enter the blood, which distributes them throughout the body. These drugs are used to for relief from inflammation during severe sinus infection, especially if you also have developed nasal polyps (16). Examples include prednisone and methylprednisolone. Oral corticosteroids can cause dangerous side effects when used long term, so they're used for treatment of severe symptoms and only when prescribed by your physician.
Decongestants can be purchased as over-the-counter (OTC) and prescription liquids, nasal sprays and tablets. Commonly used OTC oral decongestants include Sudafed and Actifed. An example of an OTC nasal spray is oxymetazoline (Afrin). These medications are not taken for more than a few days; otherwise they can lead to the return of more severe congestion or rebound congestion. While they provide an immediate relief, there is no evidence that they really work as an actual treatment option (17).
Sinus pain infection is treated by over the counter analgesics such as Tylenol, aspirin or ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB). Due the risk of Reye's syndrome — a potentially fatal disease — never give aspirin to anyone younger than age 18 unless it is prescribed by your doctor. Some of these medicines can make chronic sinus infection worse, so be sure to check with your doctor before starting use of any pain reliever.
In cases are unresponsive to pharmacological treatment or medication, endoscopic sinus surgery is a treatment option. In this procedure, the doctor uses a thin, flexible tube with an attached light, called an endoscope, to probe your sinus cavities (20). Then, depending on the source of infection or blockade, the doctor may use various instruments to remove tissue or a polyp that's causing obstruction. Enlarging a narrow sinus opening also may be an option to improve drainage.
There are many home treatment options available providing relief from sinus infection. However there is no scientific evidence that these home remedies really work so use them wisely and only with prior consent of your doctor.
The most popular natural remedies for sinusitis include:
Almost all of the traditional healing systems of the world have recognized cayenne peppers as a potent medicine, and on a good basis: cayenne is chock full of a component known as capsaicin that is useful in treatment of many medical conditions, including sinus-related problems. For example, a randomized, double-blind study published in Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology in July 2010 showed that capsaicin could help relieve the headaches, nasal congestion, and sinus pains and pressures connected with rhinitis.
If you want to use cayenne pepper to treat a sinus infection follow these steps:
Take a minuscule amount of organic cayenne powder and inhale it up each nostril. Then, allow the discharge to flow into a tissue or sink. If you cannot bear the unpleasant burning sensation that is produced from snorting cayenne, you can dilute cayenne powder with some water, dab the mixture to an ear swab and administer it that way. Adding some cayenne pepper to your meals or using it as a supplement can also help accelerate the treatment process.
Apple cider vinegar has been used since ancient times in traditional medicine for its medicinal properties and may be an effective treatment for mild sinus infections. It is a natural bactericidal, antiviral, antifungal and anti-inflammatory agent that can eliminate the harmful microorganisms that cause the infection (21). Secondly, it helps the body keep up a healthy alkaline pH level, which helps to break up mucus and discourages the spread of disease. Lastly, apple cider vinegar has been proven to give our immune system a boost, meaning it can help prevent sinus infections from developing in the first place.
There are various ways to use apple cider vinegar to treat a sinus infection. The easiest way is to mix one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar into a cup of warm water and drink the mixture regularly until the infection subsides. For a more effective approach, mix two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar into a cup of warm water and snort one tablespoon of the mixture up each nostril. Each time, allow the sinus discharge to flow down your throat and then spit it out.
Garlic is often known as nature’s antibiotic due to its powerful medicinal properties (22). Almost all of garlic’s major health benefits stem from its large allicin content, an organic sulfur compound that is widely regarded for preventing and treating disease due to its significant antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral and antioxidant properties. Its high allicin content is what makes garlic so great at clearing up sinus infection.
Garlic is much too strong to be snorted. Instead, it’s a good idea to incorporate some chopped or crushed garlic into your diet. You can also make an inhaler out of garlic by immersing some large garlic cloves in water for about a few minutes, crushing them into a paste and then inhaling the fragrance until the sinuses are decongested.
You can clean the inside of your nose in a sinus infection using either a home-made salt water solution or a solution made with packets of ingredients purchased from a pharmacy.
To prepare the solution at home, mix a teaspoon of salt and a spoon of bicarbonate of soda into a pot of boiled water that has been left to cool.
To clean your nose:
Another great home remedy for treating sinus infection is to add a few drops of eucalyptus oil to a pot or pan of boiling, hot water, drape a towel over your head, close your eyes and inhale steam deeply for instant relief. Eucalyptus oil has anti-microbial and anti-fungal properties and helps reduce the inflammation and swelling of mucous membranes. It also increases ciliary beat frequency (e.g. "self-cleaning power of mucous membrane in respiratory tract), which may be helpful in dealing with sinus infection (23).
Ginger turmeric tea is a great all natural, home remedy for a bad cold or sinus infection. Ginger has antibiotic medicinal properties and is a home remedy for many ailments (24).
The active substance in turmeric is called curcumin. Joining turmeric and black pepper helps to boost the curcumin in turmeric manifold, increasing its effectiveness. Lemon adds a boost of vitamin C.
Here is a recipe for ginger and turmeric tea
You will need:
Combine all ingredients in a glass or cup and stir. Let the tea stand for a few minutes, stir again and sip.
Ginger tea can also be used in a ginger compress:
The tea will be hot, so let it cool for a few moments before you drink it. Ginger has a spicy, bitter, pungent flavor that can be neutralized by the addition of sweetener. If the tea is too strong for your taste add more water next time. Add a sweetener such as sugar or honey. Honey is preferable as it helps soothe sore throat.
Turmeric is a root that has antiviral, antibiotic and anti-inflammatory properties that help clear sinus infections and congestion (25). It has an active compound known as curcumin that helps heal the inflammation and swelling in the sinus cavity and clears the airways.
Here are some options how to use turmeric as a cure for sinus infection
Another way is to prepare a turmeric smoothie:
Blend two pieces of turmeric root (two inches), juice extracted from one lemon, one tablespoon of honey, a pinch of cayenne pepper, one banana and a half cup of water.
Use this beverage daily to treat sinus infection.
Onion acts as an excellent decongestant to open up your obstructed sinuses. Additionally, it contains sulfur compounds that ward off bacteria and fungi.
To treat sinus infection at home with onions follow these steps:
Drinking plenty of fluids should be a top priority when dealing with a sinus infection. Staying sufficiently hydrated helps your white blood cells to battle disease causing germs more efficiently, which gives a much needed boost to your immune system.
Increasing fluid intake can also help thin out your mucus, allowing it to drain more freely as inflammation decreases. The quality of the fluids you choose is as significant as the quantity - sugar rich beverages such as bottled orange juice and sweet natural fruit juices can get in the way of the ability of white blood cells to kill bacteria.
Instead, go for clear broth, soup, tea or plain water. Warm fluids can be especially helpful in facilitating mucus flow.
In flu season, chicken soup is very comforting. It clears the sinuses and gives your immune system a boost (26).
You may try this chicken soup recipe when seeking relief from sinus infection:

When there is nasal congestion due to sinus infection, you can feel pressure in your cheeks, around eyes, teeth and forehead along with sinus headaches, coughing, lowered or absent sense of taste and smell as well as post-nasal drip. The constant dripping of mucus down the back of throat is called as post nasal drip which may result in a sore throat, cough and bad breath. This is all due to swelling of sinus membranes. Fenugreek herb, due to its anti-inflammatory traits can provide you relief from these discomforts. Fenugreek seed tea is a great herbal remedy for sinus infection
You will need:
There are certain precautions that must be exercised while treating sinus infection:
How to differentiate between chronic and acute sinus infection?
If a sinus infection lasts for more than eight weeks or returns again and again visit your doctor to check for chronic sinus infection.
When to visit the doctor?
Pay a visit to your doctor if sinus infection does not improve after two days of home treatment and you have symptoms such as:
Increase consumption of fluids as it helps in thinning of mucus and clears infection.
Apply moist heat using a towel dipped in hot water or a gel pack to your face for five to ten minutes, several times a day.
Inhale warm, moist air from a hot bath, a steam shower or a pot filled with hot water. Stay away from extremely cool, dry air. Consider using a humidifier to enhance the moisture in the air in your home.
Use saltwater nasal washes to help keep the nasal passages unobstructed and to improve drainage of mucus and wash out bacteria. You can buy saline nose drops or sprays from a medical store or make your own saline solution at home. If you make a salt solution at home, use filtered water or water that has been boiled and then cooled. Patients who have postnasal drip might also find it helpful to gargle frequently with warm salt water. This can help prevent a sore throat that often accompanies sinus infection.
If you need to blow your nose, blow it gently. Forceful blowing may propel thick mucus back into your sinuses and block them. Keep both nostrils open while blowing your nose.
Avoid consumption of alcohol. It causes swelling and inflammation of the tissues lining the nose and sinuses.
Medicines used to treat sinus infection include antibiotics, antihistamines for allergy, corticosteroids, etc.
Home remedies include ginger tea, turmeric, cayenne pepper, apple cider vinegar, etc.

We often see run down areas of cities gentrified, particularly in London. The likes of Peckham, Brixton and Croydon have been given a new lease of life as the city expands and people find places to live.
Trendy coffee shops, craft beer bars and health food stores now line the high streets, with young professionals now calling these roads and avenues home. Some say the old London has gone, others believe it’s brought previously undesirable areas into the 21st century. What can’t be argued is that it has brought areas into the 21st century.
It’s a talking point across many UK cities, as areas of once deprivation are seeing new swanky apartments and a younger generation, flush with cash arrive in town.
Why are we talking about this in an article clearly meant to be about bingo you might be thinking? Well, that’s because it’s also happening in bingo too.
It’s fair to say that bingo in the UK produces quite the stereotype. It’s a stereotype that the industry has really battled with, and has been a contributing factor in why many bingo halls up and down the country have closed down over recent years.
Think of bingo and you’ll likely think of older ladies getting rather aggressive in their play. A musty smell in the air and chicken in a basket. Bingo halls are often considered run down, with carpets unchanged since the 1980s, and bingo callers are almost a caricature.
That has led to a gap in new generations enjoying bingo in halls. However, all is not lost though as recent statistics have shown that there are more younger players than ever before…
In fact, there are actually now more players under the age of 50, than there are the stereotypical player many of us visualise. According to a study, the largest number of bingo players today are between the age of 25 and 34, with 9/10 under the age of 50.
Percentage of Total Players
Over the last few years there’s also been a steady stream of new players with one in five online bingo players having only taken up the game in the past two years. It’s a remarkable resurgence, and there a number of reasons as to why that has happened…
Bingo has been resurrected in two major ways, with online bingo now being bigger than ever. It’s a huge industry that is ever growing and has also seen a significant increase in players during the lockdown period.
Online bingo has been the major catalyst in the resurrection of bingo, with many of the major online bingo brands offering far more variants than a regular bingo hall can. What’s more, it gives players the ability to play from home, as well as whenever wherever.
A YouGov poll found that seven out of 10 bingo players only play online, and that’s largely down to the variations of the game on offer. As well as the more traditional forms, the likes of slingo bingo, speed bingo and roulette bingo are providing players with something outside the norm, and it’s giving players something to stick around for.
The rise of varying payment methods that are faster and safer than ever is also helping. Whether you’re looking to pay by debit card or looking for PayPal bingo, there is something there for you, and it’s developing a level of trust that can’t be ignored. With PayPal especially, it’s become a part of how many people pay for all manner of items, so the ability to use it for bingo instantly makes players feel comfortable in trusting and playing with a site.
However, online isn’t the only way bingo is being catapulted into the 21st century. In fact, there’s been a resurgence of offline bingo too. You won’t find it in the regular bingo halls though, but rather arenas and concert venues, as music meets bingo, and a totally weird and wonderful concept.
Not only is it giving younger bingo players the chance to enjoy it in a brick-and-mortar venue, it’s also introducing new players to the game, who are then getting a taste of the game and playing more regularly.
What that’s leading to is a rise of players in the more traditional venues too, and it appears that this new wave of bingo night is complimenting both online and the more traditional bingo evening.
It’s helping bring the came well into the 21st century, when many other games which date back as far as bingo does have failed. There doesn’t appear to be any sign of the industry slowing down, which begs the question…
What will be the next big thing in bingo? | <urn:uuid:b454c83c-63dd-478c-958a-de576f5ae114> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://mentalitch.com/how-bingo-has-been-brought-into-the-21st-century/ | 2024-03-01T05:09:44Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.976058 | 1,003 |
This holiday season, many families living in the San Antonio area will turn to “Pets Alive! San Antonio” to adopt a pet.
The non-profit organization has served as a popular adoption destination since 2012, where thousands of families go to adopt a pet, especially during the holiday season.
Steven Silver, director of major gifts and planned giving at Pets Alive!, said he anticipates a spike in adoptions for the upcoming holiday season.
“Oh, it’s classic! I mean a puppy for Christmas, it really is typical,” Silver said. “I think we’ll see an influx of folks at our adoption centers.”
An animal advocate for over 25 years, Silver said it’s critical to protect animals who cannot protect themselves, especially during unexpected tragedies like Hurricane Harvey.
Following the hurricane in mid-August, the non-profit rescued and found homes for more than 300 pets, who otherwise would have been euthanized.
“The dogs that we rescued were the ones that were going to euthanised,” Silver said. “They needed to make room for the dogs that people owned.”
The Pets Alive! foundation was founded in 2008 by Dr. Ellen Jefferson as part of an effort to prevent animals from being euthanized in Austin shelters. The foundation was such a success that just five years later a new foundation was opened in San Antonio.
Over the past five years, the San Antonio branch of Pets Alive! has saved nearly 35,000 pets from euthanasia. In 2017, the state capital celebrated its sixth year as America’s largest no-kill city.
In an effort to accomplish the same goal in San Antonio, Pets Alive! recently drove the organization’s mobile van to the McNay Art Museum on Nov. 9.
About 100 people and dozens of dogs made the trip to enjoy music, food trucks, and the Pets Alive’s “Tail Waggin’ Mobile Adoption” van, a small kennel on wheels.
About a dozen spacious kennels are squeezed into the van where visitors had the chance to visit with adoptable pets.
Volunteer Yuki Rawson, showed off a pink-collared pup for a potential adopter. Members of the crowd who were sitting on the grass listening to music, many with dogs of their own, came over to adore the puppy and her kennel mates.
In spite of the devastation Hurricane Harvey caused, the response efforts by the the shelter are a source of pride internally. Silver and the rest of the Pets Alive! team see the silver lining.
“We received a number of grants for our efforts, and we also received quite a few donations,” Silvert said.
SA Pets Alive! journeyed back and forth from Houston to San Antonio and saved countless lives through generous donations and volunteers.
Erika Mullins, events and marketing coordinator, appreciates that the community was able to rally together during this difficult time.
“Really it was a big group effort,” Mullins said. “We’re thrilled with the way the community came behind us to support us.”
While many of the Harvey Dogs were adopted, many more still await a new home.
Those interested in pet adoption or volunteering with Pets Alive! this holiday season can visit SanAntonioPetsAlive.org. | <urn:uuid:0d13b228-d202-400b-971f-17972c47b4f4> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://mesquite-news.com/pets-alive-san-antonio-promotes-holiday-adoptions/ | 2024-03-01T03:49:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.962539 | 711 |
Do you pick a word for the year like I do?
It’s kinda like a theme for the year. Your word might be about what you’d like to bring more of to you in 2023 and what might help to make that happen. Or perhaps it’s a reminder for you of what you know you need to work on or keep in front of you.
In the past I’ve had words like magnificent, trust, and connection. My words act as a focus for what I desire to create during the year and a guidepost for my goal setting process.
You can’t do this wrong, and you can change your mind (it’s not tattooed on your arm)! A helpful tool to use is Word Hippo if you’ve got an idea but haven’t settled on quite the right word yet.
If you want to explore your big word and walk through my goal setting process and ritual, I’d just love you to join me on:
Tuesday, Dec. 20th at 10:00 am cst
for a workshop to go from Goal Setting to Goal Getting.

My tour group and I first arrived in Aguas Calientes after spending all day hiking the beautiful Inca Trail.
This small town oasis was indeed a breath of fresh air. The massive Alcamayo river flowing, shops hustling and bustling, and the smell of fresh pizza from the restaurants was illuminating.
Little did we know what would happen roughly 12 hours from this moment.
First, a little information on the town of Aguas Calientes.
Aguas Calientes, also known as Machu Picchu Pueblo or Machu Picchu Town, is the quaint town’s closest access point to the infamous Machu Picchu site.
Most visitors of Peru will stay at least one to two nights here to visit Machu Picchu with less travel time than from Cusco or Ollantaytambo. It’s only about 3.5 miles away from the site, so most people either take the bus or hike up to the mountain.
The only way to access this town is by taking the train. In fact, the village of Aguas Calientes did not exist until the railroad was even built.
After the railroad construction in 1931, foreign tourists came to visit the magnificent site, and small Peruvian businesses started opening up shops, restaurants, and hotels for these travelers.
Thus, the town of Aguas Calientes was born.
There are no cars and no road access to the town. The only vehicles are the minibusses utilized to take tourists up to the Machu Picchu ruins and back.
There really isn’t a whole lot to do in this small town. It’s mainly just a stopping point for people visiting Machu Picchu.
In my opinion, however, I do think this town is worth a visit. The river is breathtaking, and the nightlife can be a real hoot. Some things you’ll want to do:
The morning after hiking to Inca Trail, as we were in the hotel lobby grabbing some breakfast, we heard a loud crash as the entire town shook.
We had no idea what it was, but it almost felt like a mix between an earthquake and a flashbang. It had been raining heavily all night and into the morning.
My group and I all stared at each other with extreme confusion.
Turns out, the heavy rains caused the Alcamayo River to burst its banks. This sent a torrent of mud, heavy rocks, and debris all through the streets of Aguas Calientes.
Five buildings, including the town’s prestigious 5-star hotel, were destroyed. Several structures, including restaurants, bridges, and roads, were damaged.
What really horrified the town was the destruction of the only method of transportation in and out of the village: the railroad.
We knew immediately what this meant: We were stranded in this Machu Picchu Town.
The mudslide caused chaos in Aguas Calientes as a group of construction workers, police officers, firefighters, and park rangers frantically began clearing up the railroads.
All while also looking for injured and missing people. The natural disaster destroyed electrical lines, knocking out the power into the town for several hours.
Since we were already in Machu Picchu Town, we still went to the Machu Picchu site in the morning. Since everyone staying in Cusco and Ollantaytambo could not get to Machu Picchu that morning due to the railroad being destroyed, the ruins were relatively empty.
During moments like these, I’m thankful I booked a tour led by a local guide. We would have easily been stuck in Aguas Calientes for weeks if it wasn’t for his intelligent and quick planning.
We hiked along the riverbank alongside the railroad track to the nearest town with a road. This hike was a total of six miles!
We had to cross unsafe bridges, climb through rocks and mud, and deal with unpredictable weather. One minute it would be pouring down rain. The next, hot and humid.
Our guide hired porters carrying all our luggage in wheelbarrows (we were a group of 12, so that’s a lot of bags!)
Remember, we had just hiked the Inca Trail the day before, so most of us are pretty sore at this point.
We hiked 2.5 hours and covered over six miles of ground. It was exhausting.
But thanks to our excellent guide, tough porters, and unshakable group, we made it to our minibus.
It was a long, windy road back to Cusco. At many points, we were on a one-way lane and banking around the side of a mountain – it was pretty terrifying.
We did run into a slight hiccup, where we stopped at a bridge for over an hour while construction workers cleared the road.
Our group arrived in Cusco just after midnight. Exhausted, sweating, and hungry.
I’m so thankful for our tour guide, Jhono. I would have been stranded in Aguas Calientes and missed my flight out of Cusco if it wasn’t for his quick thinking, multiple connections, and creativity.

I use up all my flags every day and my close votes.
For a super flagger and closer like myself, it would be nice if the system could somehow recognize this and give me more flags to use.
As a 10K+ user, there are plenty of opportunities for me to help clean up the morass. I'd like to help more, but why should I be penalized by only having 46 flags and 50 close votes.
I feel I could be much more beneficial to site if I had more flags and close votes by which to work with.
I understand that there is a formula for this and I'm not trying to game the system (though I am up to 742 flag weight as of this posting due to my extensive flagging).

The queer Berlin illustrator Matthias Seifarth is also fully aware of the difficult years we have recently experienced, even losing hope at times. His creative vision, and most importantly, the reality in which he lives have now led him to launch Casa Matze. A project which, starting from his personal visual universe, makes quite an interesting social commentary, playing between provocation and protest, features selected artworks as large and hand-printed screen prints, available both framed and unframed. And to celebrate the launch now comes CocksOccur; a limited series of t-shirts displaying quirky, ‘cocky’ motifs!
“I love my job as a freelance illustrator as it gives me the opportunity to express myself and my views in a visual way. However, from time to time I crave a creative outlet with no boundaries, instead of fitting an elaborate written article. With my own artwork I don't have to bear anyone else in mind, or fulfil an editor's wish,” replies Seifarth, who works as an editorial illustrator for a wide range of magazines such as Zeit, Aftenposten or Rollingstone, when asked how Casa Matze emerged. This is a platform that promises to give a lot to talk about in the coming months and with which the artist claims personal work. “It’s free, without rules, and most importantly a bit of fun,” he adds.
But what exactly is this new project about and how does it work? “The platform will work as an evolving art space, and I'm excited to see where it goes. The shop will eventually sell a selection of limited fine art prints, the CocksOccur shirts and other objects I am developing. I am doing it with my friend Benni, and we're excited to see how it evolves.” CocksOccur is the starting point, including three designs and having a loose plan to release them in batches of three every so often. “Although nothing is set!” the illustrator points out.
He hopes these designs lift people up. He also anticipates they’re preparing lots of new prints, some plastic figurines and more tees at some stage. “I was bullied and called a cock sucker at school, so I wanted to play with this and turn it into something positive. I am proud to be queer and I have nothing to hide, and these designs are kind of a visual representation of this,” he answers when we ask him about the meaning that these designs have beyond what is visible to the eyes of the viewer. The high-limited, heavy-cotton, organic and vegan tee shorts are available on its website starting today! | <urn:uuid:53ab4591-fa47-485f-9452-ddd9fee249ae> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://metalmagazine.eu/post/matthias-seifarth | 2024-03-01T03:26:05Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.972149 | 559 |

MHR Clinic is dedicated to helping women regain their confidence by addressing hair loss through a comprehensive and personalised approach. At the heart of our strategy is the use of clinically proven methods like Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) and also incorporating products like Minoxidil, a topical solution that has shown effectiveness in promoting hair regrowth. Minoxidil works by increasing blood flow to the hair follicles and stimulating them to enter the growth phase. The experts at MHR Clinic carefully assess each woman’s unique situation to determine the most suitable concentration and application method of Minoxidil, tailoring the treatment to individual needs.
In addition to Minoxidil, we incorporate herbal supplements into our regrowth programs. These supplements are chosen for their potential to support overall hair health and address underlying causes of hair loss.

MHR Clinic’s commitment to personalised care and cutting-edge treatments ensures that each woman receives a tailored plan to address her unique hair restoration needs, ultimately helping her regain not only her hair but also her confidence.
Hair loss, known medically as alopecia, is fairly common. It’s estimated, for instance, that around half of women aged 70 years or over experience female-pattern baldness – the most common type of hair loss, which is thought to be inherited.
We love seeing results and making women feel more confident in themselves, check out our great feedback.
My hair was getting thinner and thinner and I didn’t know what to do, I’d been to the doctors and didn’t have a thyroid problem or zinc deficiency. I tried shampoos and shop bought products but no change. Then I started to follow MHR on Instagram and was impressed by the results in the pictures. I went along to the Manchester (Rostherne) MHR and spoke to Sarah and decided to sign up for the 8 month course. This involved herbal tablets and applying Minoxidil daily and laser treatment fortnightly for 40 mins. It is such a relaxing experience. Bethan makes sure you have tea or coffee and takes care of putting the machine on and follow up appointments. She always has a welcoming smile. There are TVs in the rooms and free WIFI. You can’t feel the laser , no heat, no discomfort. Dean did regular consultations to check my progress and little by little it started to thicken, then new growth. It got shiny. My work colleagues noticed it first, then my hairdresser. I’m very happy with the results and although my course is finished I can contine with the products to maintain the growth. Women are affected with hairloss too and this solution works and can change your life. Thank you to all the team, it has been a pleasure meeting everyone at MHR.
Women’s hair loss is not something most of us want to discuss… I was fairly desperate and very nervous when I first plucked up courage to contact MHR. I was made to feel comfortable and have been pleased with the results which we’re slow at first but happy with the eventual result… it’s an ongoing process. On the whole the staff were great, I would recommend. | <urn:uuid:68397aa7-4099-40b9-9d5d-54e101b2f5a8> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://mhrclinic.co.uk/female-hair-loss-solutions/ | 2024-03-01T04:22:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.962382 | 997 |

Who Is Nate Dodson And What Is Microgreensfarmer.com?
My name is Nate Dodson and I founded Hugs Urban Farm in 2015.
I started my farm and began growing and selling microgreens (and other crops) as a way to supplement my income and hopefully transition out of a full-time job that I was starting to really dislike.
That job was as a ecological field restoration worker, spending my days spraying invasive plants with large amounts of herbicide. After 5 long years of busting my butt, climbing through briars with my clothes soaked in sweat and herbicide and tick bites covering my legs, I'd had enough!
I loved my co-workers, but could no longer stand the long hours away from my wife and daughter, and having to wake up at 5am every morning to a blaring alarm clock.
buys me wage slavery.
Started my first official after-college “career” working as a restoration ecologist. Spending long hours working outdoors and getting covered in sweat, ticks, chiggers, poison ivy, and toxic herbicide all day started to get old really fast. Started to feel sad and scared thinking about my next 40+ years of working in the real world.
Sometimes life is
Had my first child, increasing debt and a mortgage, and felt trapped and incredibly worn out from my day job. Many weekdays were spent working out-of-town staying in hotel rooms, and I desperately missing my wife and newborn daughter Josie. Started having many health problems including flare ups of my crohn's disease and very dark depressing thoughts. This was probably the hardest year of my life.
out of rock bottom...
Fearing I wouldn’t be on this earth much longer if my health continued to suffer and if I kept going at my job that I hated, I began desperately looking for a way out - a new direction for my life. This is when I stumbled onto the idea of starting an urban farm. I was already an enthusiastic gardener and in a situation where it honestly felt like I was hitting rock bottom anyway, so I decided I had nothing to lose and gave it a go. Hugs Urban Farm was born.
Starting a business is exhilarating and challenging!
I continued at my day job for part of the year and worked on Hugs Farm early mornings, nights, and weekends. It was exhilarating to land my first restaurant customers, start selling at the farmers markets, and launch our “mightygreens” home delivery program. It was also EXTREMELY challenging to keep up with everything. I was spending a lot of money to ramp up the farm - more than I was making in sales. I often layed in bed at night feeling like I was having a panic attack from all the stress. I knew something had to change, so I decided to make some drastic and risky moves by once again by quitting my job and doubling down on what was working best on the farm - microgreens!
Things take a drastic turn for the better!
Things started to really get good for me when microgreens became the focal point of my farm and life. I was really enjoying the wonderful responses and interactions I was having with customers. I also launched my bike-based farmers market stand which I dubbed the “salad cycle”. This was also around the time that I began sharing some of the tips, tricks, and successes I was having through the Microgreens Farmer website and YouTube channel. My subscribers began begging me to release more content or an online course outlining my process and so I recorded and released “Microgreens Business” in the fall of 2016.
Microgreens Farmer Has Helped Many Businesses Including...
Enrollment in my microgreens course is skyrocketing!
At this point, over 1000 people have enrolled in Microgreens Business, and it has steadily remained the best course in the world for helping people launch a successful microgreens enterprise. Hundreds of thousands more continue to learn and follow along through social media and the free email newsletter. I feel so grateful everyday knowing I’m helping so many people pursue their dreams, find work that’s meaningful, quit jobs they hate, launch their microgreens business, and enjoy a fun and profitable new way to make a living!
Let’s change the world!
I’m dedicated to continue offering the worlds #1 online course teaching YOU how to launch and grow a successful microgreens business. And the overall mission is to get more people growing food locally, more people eating incredibly healthy greens, and more wage slaves quitting their jobs to pursue this incredibly fun and meaningful work! Are you ready to do this? I’m here to help! | <urn:uuid:6f70fdb5-069a-48c5-9847-7cb0754c453f> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://microgreensfarmer.com/about/ | 2024-03-01T03:11:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.974526 | 983 |

This is a guest blog by current student Alice.
I moved to Bournemouth on Saturday the 16th September 2017 and what a whirlwind it was! So I thought for any freshers out there who are about to join Bournemouth University, I would break down my first few days in Bournemouth to give an overview of my arrivals experience.
After a few stressful hours getting everything packed into the car and travelling to Bournemouth, I had made it! I arrived at uni where I was greeted by the friendly ResLifeBU team (more information about them here) who explained to me about the fun events that they had got lined up for freshers as well as showing me where I could collect my keys from.
After that, me and my family drove to my accommodation where I met my other flatmates and started to unpack! This was a bittersweet moment, I knew it was nearing the time where me and my family would part once I had unpacked, but I also loved finally unpacking all of the decorations that I had bought over the summer and seeing them setup in my room.
Once I had said my goodbyes to my family and the day was drawing to a close, I sat down with my housemates where we were able to get to know each other more and talk about our courses. This is where the day ended as we had our university enrolment the next day.
The second day in Bournemouth didn’t go as smoothly as it could have, as I accidentally read the bus timetable wrong and missed the bus to uni! Thankfully there were taxis around! That’s something I really recommend you doing – check out how the buses work the day before, so you understand the timetable etc. I hadn’t really taken buses before uni so I learnt a lot!
Once I had arrived at uni I was shown to a lecture room where we had a welcoming talk explaining how the day was going to work. We were also told our seminar groups that we would be in for the rest of the year. The day continued with various other welcome talks before we had a lunch break – this is where I met one of my best friends so don’t worry about making friends, remember everyone is in the same boat as you!
After lunch we were provided with some more literature and told how our timetables would work for the following week and then that was the day finished!
On the third day we were back in uni ready for enrolment! We entered the sports hall where we confirmed our course details with various staff members before having our photo taken for our student ID card. Your student ID card will be used for exams and it’s great to prove that you’re a student in order to qualify for student discounts in shops and buses! Your card will also have your student ID number on it that you will use to login into your emails and to access your course units online via Brightspace.
After enrolment was complete, so was the day and I returned back to my accommodation where I FaceTimed with my family catching them up on the day and continued to make adjustments to my room.
I then had the rest of the week free as uni officially started the week after so I would recommend that you try and find a few places that you would like to explore so that you can really make the most out of your first week!
Hopefully this has given you a little insight as to how your first few days at uni may plan out – remember, relax! The fun and adventures are just about to begin… | <urn:uuid:e3d67378-73cd-49ee-847c-06046463ba92> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://microsites.bournemouth.ac.uk/student-blog/2019/09/04/my-first-few-days-of-starting-uni/ | 2024-03-01T04:09:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.988572 | 744 |

Keep an eye on when your dental insurance rolls over for the year so that you are not paying out of pocket deductible once it has been met. If you are paying monthly premiums for your insurance you should be sure to take advantage of the benefits.

Concert Review: Charles Bradley in Vancouver at the Commodore
Seeing Charles Bradley in Vancouver at the Commodore last night was my first time at the venue. I polled some friends and I reached the consensus that it’s the best in the city. Bradley filled it to the brim. The balconies and the seats turned to standing room only. It was a sea of soul sisters and soul brothers.
People let out loud screams as the projector screens went up and the lights went down. The band took the stage. Distorted guitar blasted through the speakers. In came the horn section. There was still no sign of the man but the band was grooving. From left to right, his Extraordinaires were trumpet, saxophone, keys, drums, bass, and guitar.
They transitioned in to a slow groove; the keys player took centre stage to do his introduction. “Are y’all ready for some good lovin?” he asked. The audience responded with yeaaaas and wooooos.
Charles Bradley entered from stage left in a white suit with silver sequins on it. “Hellooooo” he said, half singing. He mimed a heart, grabbed the microphone and started singing “Heartaches and Pain.” Everybody in the crowd smiled. When Charles says he loves you you can bet he means it. This man is unable to communicate with anything less than everything he’s got.
The horn players had tambourines on their elbows, at the ready. Bradley twirled to reveal a skull on the back of his white leather jacket. CB took us to church on the next one. I resigned myself to the performance – I was fully immersed in it. Charles Bradley takes you to a place that you can’t easily be transported to or explain once you come back from it.
Bradley is a man possessed, he took off his jacket for the next one. The keys player scrunched his face as he played his part of “Nobody But You.” Nobody but Charles can shriek and scream at the top of their lungs and hit you right in your chest. “Fellas, break it down,” said Charles to his band. They broke it down and so did Bradley. He crouched on the ground before rising to do one his signature moves, the robot.
His music is a head scratcher. During “You Put The Flame On It,” the horn section, the guitarist, and the crowd sang back up. The keys player’s scrunched face remained. CB showed off his hip thrusting ability.
After the song was over, Charles Bradley left the stage. Without missing a step, his Extraordinaires held their own. Sans Bradley, the sax player took the spotlight. Just when the audience thought it was over, the band transitioned back in to the jam session. As it ended, crowd members could not contain themselves.
I wonder what magic potion Charles sipped on backstage, it had to be something special. The life juice of the 67 year old Screamin’ Eagle of Soul needs to be bottled and served. The keys player took the mic again, “You ready to keep this party moving? If you have a drink in your hand, please raise it in the air. If not, just put your hands in the air.” Everybody clapped their hands and stomped their feet. They screamed and shouted to show their love and support.
CB returned in a burgundy jumpsuit and a black robe with an Egyptian pharaoh on the back. Next, was “Love Bug Blues.” To my right, a Big Lebowski lookalike was head bobbing. Surveying the crowd, I noticed a lot of heads bobbing. I couldn’t see an idle body, most of the people in attendance were singing along.
“If it wasn’t for you, there would be no me,” said Charles. Bradley spread his wings between songs, he might as well have been flying. The horn section was on tambourine duty during “Lovin’ You, Baby”. Throughout the night, the drummer kept the timing and even sang back up. He was wearing a canary yellow shirt and a black bow tie. He looked a bit like a much hairier Charlie Brown.
Some of Charles Bradley’s moves look like they are borrowed from the old Asian people doing Tai Chi in the park on Sunday morning. Charles sang, “When you touch me, baby. My heart skips a beat.” Mid song cheers erupted. Bradley doesn’t sing from his gut. He sings from somewhere way deeper. It comes from the same place that his music touches his fans.
It didn’t matter what song he was singing, people young and old had their hearts grabbed out of their chest. By this point in the set, everybody on stage had lost their jackets except for the bass player. He was still plucking away. “Ain’t It a Sin” was a real crowd pleaser. Everybody was twisting and grooving.
Charles concluded his set with the Black Sabbath cover and lead single of his latest album, Changes. CB cut through the full wall of music that his Extraordinaires provided. Take Bradley or the band away and it still would sound beautiful. People closed their eyes to feel the music.
“Ladies and gentlemen, this is the part that hurts me the deepest,” said Charles during the instrumental breakdown. The sea of people swayed to the last verse and chorus. As it ended, Charles fell to the floor only to slowly rise again. “We love you Charles!” screamed two die hard fans. Charles told us to tell the people close to us that we loved them before they were gone.
“It’s time to go home and say I love you,” said Charles. Everybody cheered to show the love was mutual. “Till the next time, I wanna say I love you. Good night,” he added. There were whistles, claps, screams and shouts as the band played Charles Bradley off. People cheered and stomped. They willed an encore to happen rather than chanting for one.
Mr. Keys Player returned to the microphone, “Vancouver man, y’all rock. Cheers to you guys.” We all wanted more. We screamed and shouted for the bad man to return. Charles Bradley and his Extraordinaires walked back out for one last song, “Why Is It So Hard?”
The strong performance was somehow still capped off with a crescendo. Only CB could pull off the impressive feat. Every song of his expresses life. Every word he sings is true. Charles Bradley’s music is autobiographical, it’s fact not fiction. There’s not a morsel of his being that doesn’t go in to his craft. It’s magical.
Everybody, Charles included, was bewildered by the gathering of people. It’s not every day that a 67 year old man, with a life story like Charles’, can sell out a 1000 soul venue. “We are all brothers and sisters,” said Charles. Bradley wants us all to end the fussing and fighting. Bradley wants love.
As the night ended, a crew member handed Bradley a bouquet of roses. He hugged a few people in the front row and tossed out the roses. His Extraordinaires continued to do their thing as the Screamin’ Eagle of Soul said his final thank yous. All night they supported a man on a mission: to spread love to the entire world. Charles Bradley ended by saying, “You made my night. You’re gonna make me dig down deeper to make this world a better place. I love you Canada. Thank you so much”
Be sure to check out Charles Bradley and his Extraordinaires at a stop on the Changes tour.

Hello and welcome back to Milton Maids! Yesterday was such as special day, but now your home’s probably a mess! So let’s clean your home after Canada Day!
Second, happy (belated) Canada Day! We hope you enjoyed this day and spent some quality time with your family or your guests.
But now, it’s time to give your home a thorough cleaning, even for just a couple of hours. And what better time to clean your home than after Canada Day?
If you want to keep enjoying your weekend and start the week on the right foot, we recommend you check our maid service in Milton.
But if you want to take matters into your hands, let’s get started!
Remove Clutter From Your Home After Canada Day
Every time you perform a deep house cleaning, you would start with decluttering, ideally.
However, we know that you’re most likely short on time. This means that, in the worst-case scenario, at least you will have a decluttered home.
Put away items as you go and try to remove as many items as possible from flat surfaces such as countertops, your desktop, or your dining table.
This shouldn’t take you longer than 30 minutes. You might want to set a timer to finish this task quickly.
Start With Your Dishes and Laundry
Right after decluttering, one of the priorities would be to do your laundry and clean your dishes.
Get your curtains and bed linens in the washing machine so you can soak them with plenty of time and wash them right before the end of the day.
The same goes for your dishes. If you have greasy pans and pots, sprinkle some baking soda and add the juice of a lemon. With this trick, you will remove baked-on grease in the blink of an eye.
Tackle Your Bathrooms
This is a key element in cleaning. You could stand pretty much every area in your home to be slightly messy, everything except bathrooms.
Need a fantastic DIY cleaner for your bathroom? Mix equal parts of white vinegar and water, and add one or two drops of dish soap. This will quickly clean your surfaces.
Spray counters with disinfectant, especially the tub and the toilet. If you want to remove odors, sprinkle baking soda and let it sit overnight.
Clear Out The Fridge
This is a fantastic opportunity to clean your fridge. After Canada Day, we are sure you prepared some delicious meals. But now it’s time to clear out your fridge and reorganize it.
In this case, make sure to start by removing all contents of the refrigerator.
Then, use hot, soapy water and wipe down all the shelves, drawers, and handles. If you have the time, remove all drawers and shelves.
Vacuum and Mop Your Floors
If you have the chance, take your time and quickly clean your floors. This is one of the most important steps because your floors are the biggest giveaway that your house hasn’t been cleaned in a while.
Plus, if you had a lot of guests for Canada Day, your floors probably have some shoe prints and dust spread around.
Always start in the corner that is further from the entrance to that room, and start going back and forth until the entire floor is clean.
If you have carpet floors, spritz some white vinegar to remove odor.
How to Clean Your Home Faster Before After Canada Day
- Clean from the top down. Many people start cleaning the floors and then start cleaning other areas. If you do it this way, all the dust, grime and dirt from your surfaces will fall to the floor and mess up your work.
- Break your cleaning tasks into smaller chunks. Every cleaning task is daunting at first. Break it into smaller sub-tasks.
- Set up a timer. This is essential if you have just a few hours to clean your home. Divide your total number of hours into your cleaning tasks and assign 25 to 45 minutes to each one, with a 5-10 minute break between them.
- Listen to music or a podcast. This will make everything run smoother and you also get to enjoy or learn something new!
There it is! These house cleaning tips will help you celebrate Canada Day with a clean home.
Remember to bookmark our blog and visit Milton Maids if you need a professional cleaning service in Milton.
We’ll be back soon with more cleaning tips!

For the past six years, Ex Fabula has served as Milwaukee’s premier live storytelling series, bringing a diverse cross-section of the city together and finding a common bond through the power of simple, direct, and powerful communication. Founded in 2009 by a small group of friends inspired by national storytelling events like The Moth, the non-profit Ex Fabula (“from stories” in Latin, by the way) has gone on to stage six seasons of StorySlams and storytelling workshops at countless venues—both conventional and unconventional—throughout the city, all dedicated to, according to the group’s website, “strengthening community bonds through the art of storytelling.”
In advance of Ex Fabula’s 7th season, which kicks off Thursday, September 17 at Garfield’s 502, Milwaukee Record’s Matt Wild sat down with Ex Fabula director Megan McGee and Ex Fabula emcee Leah Delaney to discuss the origins of the series, its new Fellowship program, the importance of being a homegrown organization, what differentiates it from other storytelling events that always seem to feature nothing but dorky white guys talking about what dorks they were in high school (ahem), and much, much more.

The Civilizational Transformation Project considers immense societal upheavals, delineating and analyzing the conditions that prompt such radical change. The project is a subsidiary of MRP but with its own output, paying particular attention to the way minds and cultures undergo parallel and connected processes of change.
Researchers are looking at moments of revolution and evolution in the structure, values and routines of civilizations in order to learn why such shifts happen and when. They have been tracking the movement from hunter-gatherer societies to domestication to massive military nation-states, from the Axial Age into the Age of Modernity and so forth.
These efforts to understand key moments in the development of the human species will provide a better grasp on humanity’s changing motives for building communities and enable further examination on individuals’ relationship to their society.
The CMAC team is investigating how to expand empathy circles and promote cooperation so as to produce pro-sociality. Using psychological studies, computational models and historical studies, researchers are analyzing what people need to do to form well-functioning societies – ones that can adapt to challenging environments, diffuse ideological and religious conflict and foster inter-group community. Researchers will disseminate findings among policy analysts, conflict-resolution groups and educational ventures in an effort to better understand how to mitigate real conflicts.
CMAC’s research on immigration is an outgrowth of the insights gained in the MODRN project but with a more specialized focus. To generate greater understanding into the various phases of the immigration process, CMAC is employing massive datasets and computer simulation techniques as well as closely collaborating with immigration experts. Researchers are building computational models that can be calibrated to a specific nation’s and city’s demographics and policy conditions in order to study long-term integration. The result is a playground in which we can virtually experiment with policy, generating insights to help guide policymakers and analysts toward what is most effective for any number of communities.
CMAC researchers are investigating the brain-based conditions under which people are healthier. By analyzing conceptual models and evaluating relationships among the brain’s affective and cognitive dimensions, we are finding out more about the relationship between such things as spirituality and empathy. Our efforts in this project will help us discern how our minds affect our wellbeing and, therefore, how we might attain wellness from a psychological perspective.
CMAC has received funding from individual donors to digitize, transcribe, and organize the Lawson Interviews of Seventh-Day Adventists (LISDA). Dr. Ronald Lawson is a sociologist who has studied the Adventist population for several decades. Since 1984, he has conducted approximately 4,500 interviews with Adventist pastors, teachers, students, academics, hospital personnel, administrators, and laity in at least 60 countries. The interviews follow the process of rapid growth and globalization, of new communities gaining representation within the North American Church government, and of social issues placing new pressures on an increasingly diverse membership. The study contrasts the differences in belief and practice between the different demographic communities within a globalizing American religious denomination and explores what holds such diversity together. Dr. Lawson has since retired and CMAC researcher and demographer Dr. Rachel Bacon is leading the project with his support.
With the help of several research assistants, we are in the process of digitizing, reviewing, and cataloging the basic characteristics of the handwritten files into a single database. A transcriptionist has begun working with Dr. Lawson to learn his handwriting, abbreviations, and shorthand for all the interview notes. Because the LISDA dataset has been stored in a variety of formats, no publication has reported findings from it. Digitizing and cataloguing this invaluable dataset will make possible a wide variety of groundbreaking studies. This project will complete the LISDA database and disseminate findings to a broad audience. We will publish one or more books and make a public-use version of the LISDA dataset available for future research. | <urn:uuid:ab7e2608-9e19-457e-a840-2ba770f80686> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://mindandculture.org/projects/in-development/ | 2024-03-01T03:23:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.934622 | 795 |

With Ontario’s provincial election coming up soon, the news media has been full of comments made by various politicians all scrambling for votes. Hot topics that affect virtually everyone such as hydro rates and the cost of auto insurance are often brought up, with everyone having their own version of the perfect solution to fix the costs.
On the auto insurance front, the government promised years ago to lower prices by 15% and has failed to do so. People working with insurance on a daily basis have done study after study on ways to reform auto insurance in order to lower costs, but we’re still waiting. To compound this, media reports regularly claim that insurance companies are making buckets of money on auto insurance in Ontario, especially in the GTA where rates are the highest in the province.
To reduce rates in the GTA, some politicians and commentators have even suggested that we should get rid of territorial ratings based on postal code so you will pay the same price no matter where you live.
While this sounds like a simple way to change auto insurance, would most people benefit from this change, or would it make the auto insurance situation worse for millions of Ontario residents?
District: One of The Strongest Predictors of Claims Risk
Before diving into the numbers, it’s important to remember some of the fundamental principles about insurance. Because nobody is able to see into the future with absolute certainty, insurance companies use actuaries and statistics to predict who is likely to file insurance claims.
Insurance companies are permitted to use certain variables when calculating rates and aren’t allowed to use others. Insurance companies are allowed to use variables such as your age, vehicle type and use, gender, driving record and where the vehicle will be used to set your rates. Factors such as credit score, or if you have been involved in a not at fault accident are not permitted to be used for calculating your auto insurance premium.
Actuaries rely on large pools of data to predict how much they will pay out in claims for a risk. When deciding on variables to determine insurance rates, insurance companies need to find a strong correlation between those variables and what they pay out in claims. While geography is one of the political hot button issues, it has historically been, and continues to be one of the strongest predictors of how much an insurance company will pay out in claims.
For the Toronto area, insurance companies pay out on average $1399 in claims each year for every vehicle insured, while in some rural areas, insurance companies pay only $662 in claims each year for every vehicle insured.
District or territory is one of the strongest variables predicting the amount of money insurance companies will have to pay out in claims, and removing this variable would mean that your premium would be less correlated to actual risk factors.
Should All of Ontario Have to Pay for the GTA’s High Claims Rates?
Over the last 5 years, auto insurance rates in Ontario have averaged $1501 per year, with only 3 statistical regions in the province paying a higher premium than that, all of which are in the GTA or close to the GTA. Removing the geographical rating variable would mean that individuals living in regions where their claims costs are less than half of the GTA would have their insurance premiums increased by almost $500 per year to subsidize the cost of auto insurance for people living in high risk areas.
Ontario Auto Insurance Premiums vs. Claims Costs
In fig. 1, you can see that average auto insurance rates for each region across Ontario correlate directly with claims costs. It makes sense that insurance companies pay out more in claims in Toronto, because claims are mostly the result of auto accidents, and the more cars you have on the road at the same time, the more accidents occur, resulting in more claims and higher auto insurance rates in the GTA.

Map View: Ontario Auto Insurance Premiums vs. Claims Costs
A geographical look at the correlation between auto insurance rates and claims costs for each region across Ontario:
In addition to a higher number of accidents in the GTA, the area has also been rife with insurance fraud over the past few years. Organized auto insurance fraud rings have been cashing in on everything from the accident benefits provided by your policy (SABS) to inflated auto body repairs. Fraud in the GTA costs the insurance companies hundreds of millions of dollars each year, which are then passed on to the individual policyholders.
How Can Ontario Reduce the Cost of Auto Insurance Fairly?
Reducing auto insurance is a good cause that we can all get behind. Disconnecting the cost of an auto insurance policy from the risks associated with the policy isn’t fair to millions of Ontario drivers, and there are better ways to bring down the costs. Insurance companies and the industry as a whole have been pointing out the excessive costs resulting from auto insurance fraud, and this costs each and everyone of us money. We can hope that the government will institute more enforcement on auto insurance fraud and allow the industry to develop and implement modern and robust fraud prevention tools to help bring down the cost of auto insurance for each and every driver.
Technology has also come a long way from the days when auto insurance first became mandatory, and we have solutions such as telematics based car insurance that allow companies to reward good drivers. A regulatory environment which would allow companies to build upon the basics of telematics to provide even more granular rating systems would be a step in the right direction. We have to remember the basic premise of insurance is that your premium is representative of the risk, and separating premium from risk means that there will be definitive winners and losers where some people pay to little, and some people pay far to much.
Auto insurance can be a confusing topic, rife with myths and a lack of data based discussion. It’s important that as we all work towards making insurance better, we keep the ideals of fairness and equality front and center in our discussions, and focus on keeping insurance premiums representative of the risk. | <urn:uuid:b87cc4ad-0e05-4713-977d-8fe386ae8a69> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://mitchinsurance.com/blog/winners-and-losers-territory-independent-auto-insurance/ | 2024-03-01T03:45:27Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.942512 | 1,485 |
You Will Have to Watch Marvel’s Disney+ Series to Understand Phase Four of the MCU
When Marvel officially announced its full slate of projects for Phase Four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe at San Diego Comic-Con, it did something it had never done before: It included television shows as well as movies. While Marvel has previously made TV series set on the fringes of the MCU, like Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. or Daredevil, you could skip those shows entirely and not miss any of the overarching MCU narrative.
That is going to change, though. Marvel’s Kevin Feige told Bloomberg that the notion that these shows are part of the MCU is not just a marketing tool designed to sell subscriptions to Disney+. If you miss them, Feige says, you might be a little lost at some of the upcoming movies. Or as he put it:
If you want to understand everything in future Marvel movies, he says, you’ll probably need a Disney+ subscription, because events from the new shows will factor into forthcoming films such as Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The Scarlet Witch will be a key character in that movie, and Feige points out that the Loki series will tie in, too. ‘I’m not sure we’ve actually acknowledged that before,’ he says. ‘But it does.’
Disney+ launches next week, but Marvel’s MCU series don’t begin until next year, with The Falcon and the Winter Soldier in the fall of 2020, followed by WandaVision and Loki in the spring of 2021. So if you’re hsitant to sign up, you have a little time before it’s “necessary” from a Marvel perspective.

DrupalCon | Modules Unraveled
Global Track Chairs
Who is the global team and what do they do?
Rick: The global team is our organizational memory in putting on DrupalCons. They have been local track chairs and they consult with the locals to guide us away from potholes and toward the best sessions. We have a North American and a European global track chair for our standing track: Coding & Development, Frontend, Site Building, Business and Strategy, and DevOps. Link: https://association.drupal.org/drupalcon/global-team
Jozef, what is your role in DrupalCon Prague?
Jozef: My role is to help the local track chair with anything he needs help with:) So mostly it is to support him, discuss various issues that arise during the whole preparation process and mostly during the session selection process.
Jozef, who do you work with on the Frontend track for Prague?
Jozef: Together with my US global co-chair Ken Woodworth we work mostly with Jesper Woeldiche who is the local track chair and is doing an amazing job!
What is the theme of the track?
Jozef: This year we wanted to focus on implementing established best practices in both design, workflow and code and exploring cases that stretch the boundaries of what can be done with Drupal. Since building function able, usable, high-performing and beautiful websites requires you to go beyond the framework itself.
So the MAIN THEMES are
De-druplifying the user and the editing experience
Mobile tools & techniques
Interactive maps and visualizations
What gets you excited about being a global track chair for Drupalcon Prague?
Jozef: I am always excited when I see the amount of great session submissions that we have each year. It is always great to see how much wisdom and experience there is within our community and that these experts are willing to share it. To me this is the true flavour of an open source community.
Rick, what are you excited about at DrupalCon Prague?
Rick: I am excited about the innovations brought to DrupalCons by the local Prague team. The use of video on the site and for site submissions. From the popularity of the SASS/Compass triple BoF in Munich, I am very excited about the ½ day hands-on Labs sessions and I am excited at bringing that format to the North American DrupalCons.

Considerations When Choosing a Fragrance
When selecting a fragrance, it’s important to consider factors such as personal preferences, occasions, and seasons. What works for one person may not work for another, so it’s essential to find a scent that resonates with you and complements your lifestyle.
Personal Preferences: Everyone has different preferences when it comes to fragrance. Some may prefer light and airy scents, while others may prefer more intense and sophisticated ones. It’s important to choose a scent that you feel comfortable wearing and that reflects your personality.
Occasions: Different occasions call for different scents. For example, a light and fresh fragrance may be more appropriate for daytime or casual events, while a rich and seductive fragrance may be better suited for evening or formal occasions.
Seasons: The seasons can also influence the type of fragrance you choose. Light and floral scents are often associated with spring and summer, while warm and spicy scents are more commonly worn in fall and winter.
Customer Reviews and Ratings
When choosing a fragrance, it can be helpful to read customer reviews and ratings to get a sense of how others perceive the scent. However, it’s important to remember that fragrance is subjective, and what works for one person may not work for another. It’s always best to test the scent on your own skin to see how it reacts with your body chemistry.

1. How do I choose the right fragrance for me?
Choosing the right fragrance involves considering factors such as personal preferences, occasions, and seasons. It’s important to find a scent that resonates with you and complements your unique style.
2. Are floral scents only suitable for daytime wear?
No, floral scents can be worn at any time of day. There are light and airy floral scents that are perfect for daytime wear, as well as more intense and sophisticated ones that can be worn in the evening.
3. Can I wear fruity scents in the winter?

4. How important is it to test a fragrance on my own skin?

5. What should I do if I can’t decide between two fragrances?
If you’re having trouble deciding between two fragrances, try wearing each one for a few days to see how they make you feel.

Shopping for gifts usually occurs as a reactionary approach. You’re notified of an upcoming birthday party or last-minute event — cue the scramble to find the perfect present.
Or you’ve been so busy during the holiday season that you realize it’s two days before Christmas and you haven’t even started your holiday shopping. So you frantically browse the aisles of the nearest department store hoping to find something that doesn’t scream “last-minute buy”.
I used to be this person, too. But about five years ago, almost as long as I’ve been chronicling my budgeting tips on The Frugal Convert, I changed my approach. I wanted to start controlling my time and my money, so I started a gift closet.
A gift closet is essentially a space in your home where you store gift items that you scored throughout the year when they were heavily discounted. It’s your stockpile of gifts for any occasion. And it’s a dream for anyone pressed for time or constantly on the go.
How I started building my gift closet
When I first set up my gift closet, I cleared out an unused hall closet and brought in a small shelving unit to put inside for organization. Then I got to work accumulating gift items throughout the year as they were on sale.
You don’t necessarily need an empty or unused closet to have a gift inventory in your home. If you have limited storage space, think about having a small container that you keep under your bed, or a box you can put into a closet.
The idea is to create a space to store some items so you can get ahead of the gift-giving game.
Here are some ways my gift closet saves me hundreds of dollars per year.
1. I buy items when they are at their lowest prices
I once bought a gel nail kit when they were sold online for $8. They came with a nail curing machine and three nail colors, and all of the tools needed to do DIY gel nails at home. This was a perfect gift for any tween or teen and was a high-dollar item everywhere else. Even Costco sold a similar nail kit for $39 at the time.
Giving someone a gift that they’ll love at a price that your wallet loves is a win in my book.
2. I stock up on classic and practical items
If a Crock Pot or blender goes on sale for $12, I’m going to buy three or four of them, as much as the store limit allows me to.
This helps me save a lot of money, since these small kitchen appliances tend to be at least $25 when they’re on a regular sale. These gifts are perfect for a bridal shower, wedding, or housewarming party.
Of course, it's nice to buy personalized gifts for certain people, but so many gift-giving occasions are easy to anticipate. You can buy baby accessories for baby showers, and household goods for bridal showers. And when you do need to find a special occasion gift for a husband or parent, you'll have more time to find something unique for that person.
3. I stick to neutral items
For toys, I don’t buy gender-specific items. Instead, I buy items that would work for everyone in a certain age group.
When my kids were younger, I always kept around items like board games, card games, art sets, Lego sets, etc. The more neutral the items, the easier it is to plan out gifts for birthday parties and holidays.
4. I look for the deals and join groups with the same mindset
When I first started my gift closet, I subscribed to websites like Krazy Coupon Lady and Hip 2 Save. These websites were experts in finding the best deals on a daily basis. They tell you the price of an item, the dates of the sale, and the location.
Some of the deals were found solely online, while others were in-store only. You can search on their sites by store or by item.
Through these sites, I’ve been able to find amazing deals on toys, clothing, nail sets, small kitchen appliances, baby shower gifts, and more.
It’s one of the best ways to find deals without taking time out of your busy schedule to look for the deals yourself.
5. I have a monthly budget for gifts
A monthly budget is key to maintaining your gift closet. I currently have a monthly budget of $30 for gifts and always look for deals on items that are priced at about $10-$12 each.
Having a constant flow of incoming gift “inventory” has been one of the best ways I’ve been able to maintain my gift closet over the years. I check in regularly and maintain my inventory list so I know what I need from month to month. This keeps me in control and always prepared.
When my kid is invited to a party at the last minute, or they happen to forget until the night before the event, I no longer have to stress about running to the store on a Saturday morning to scrounge for a gift.
I also don’t have to be subject to paying higher prices on last-minute gift items. In the past, I would be in a rush and end up spending $30-$40 on a gift that wasn't even that great.
Now I’m always prepared, always within my budget, and always able to show up with a thoughtful gift. | <urn:uuid:366460ce-4325-449b-bab5-aa095d0df1c7> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://money.com/gift-closet-holiday-shopping-tips/?ref=/save-money-christmas-gifts/ | 2024-03-01T05:43:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.956702 | 1,149 |
A fixed deposit interest calculator helps calculate your returns and payouts, and also helps you select a preferable investment plan for you. When you invest online or even offline in a fixed deposit the main concern is how much you should invest and for how long.
You can resolve these problems by using a fixed deposit interest calculator.
Using an FD calculator online is easy to use due to its simple and systematic design and simple user interface, thereby making it a preferred choice for investors across all age groups and income brackets. Here are a few ways how an online FD calculator can help you:
How much will you get after investing a certain amount of money is always a concern. You can enter the amount of money that you want to invest and you can easily calculate your interest earnings. Based on your time period of the investment your rate of interest will vary.
Once you select the investment tenor, the online FD calculator will automatically display the interest rate applicable to your investment and the maturity date of your investment.
Select a Preferable Scheme
When you are investing you want it to be on your own terms. An online FD calculator helps you choose the preferable scheme for you and how will you get your payouts. They are a variety of options for periodic interest payouts which include monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, and yearly payments.
The rate of interest decreases when you opt for a monthly payout and it increases as you go for a longer duration of payout. It is always advisable to go for a non-cumulative FD as it pays you more because the interest is reinvested and compounded to fetch you higher returns.
Helps You with Your Investment Plan
A fixed deposit interest calculator helps you make up your investment plan. When you are investing it is very important to have an investment plan. With an online FD calculator, you can calculate the amount you want to invest and the return on investment will fetch you.
Accordingly, you can ladder your deposits to meet major financial goals over a period of let’s say, 10 years.
In case you need immediate liquid cash, you can easily break one (or more) of these deposits and the remaining deposits will stay intact. This is helpful in a falling interest rate regime so that you don’t have to reinvest at a lower interest rate.
There are various questions we have when we are investing and when we look for answers online they often confuse us even more. Using anonline FD calculator helps you answer all the questions at one place. You don’t have to consult anyone while investing.
You decide how you want to invest and if it’s convenient for you to manage your investments without the help of any financial advisors.
Don’t Have to Use Complicated Formulas
When you use an online FD calculator you don’t have to use complicated formulas to calculate your return on investment. Using compound interest formulas for calculating your interest can be confusing and time-consuming. A fixed deposit interest calculator makes it a matter of a few clicks.
You can easily open an FD account online with a simple application form. Online fixed deposit is gaining traction among investors for various reasons. Mainly because it is convenient to invest from the comfort of your home and also because you can earn additional interest rate benefit (0.10% extra over and above regular FD rates).
FD online calculator makes it convenient for you to invest in a fixed deposit. It is easy to use and helps while making an investment plan to meet your financial goals. You can easily calculate the amount you will receive on maturity, the interest earnings, and the maturity date.
You don’t have to use complicated compound interest formulas to calculate your interest. An FD calculator makes it simple for you to choose the right FD plan in just a few clicks.
Compare FDs Conveniently
Comparing different fixed deposit plans can be cumbersome if you try to do it the old way by comparing their interest rates, tenors, liquidity options, etc. However, the same comparison can be done by using an FD calculator in minutes. It not only minimizes your efforts but also helps you to make a decision based on your financial requirements quickly.
Minimizes the Errors
Manual FD interest calculation is complex as it depends on the types of fixed deposit you are investing in. The interest of a cumulative FD is compounded quarterly but the interest applicable on a non-cumulative FD depends on the interest payout frequency.
On the other hand, while calculating the returns on an FD calculator, you just have to select whether you are interested in cumulative FD or non-cumulative FD and the integrated program will calculate the interest earnings and maturity value automatically.
The errors that can be introduced during manual calculation are eliminated and this makes your decision much more accurate and transparent. | <urn:uuid:d2a96bd8-5674-42e8-af76-a03fce9d219c> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://moneyvisual.com/investing/how-online-fd-calculator-help/ | 2024-03-01T05:02:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.935793 | 977 |
Most of the time people have no idea how banking really works, and that is a very good thing! Because it means that there are no widespread issues going on and it doesn’t really matter to people how it works, it just does: paychecks get deposited, bills get paid, ATMs have cash for people, and it’s not something to worry about. Which is how it should be. However, recently it hasn’t really been that way at all. Much of the reason is because banking, at least in the OECD nations is done on the basis of “fractional reserve banking”.
What is fractional reserve banking? Basically, let’s imagine a small town bank with 1,000 customers who all have $50,000 in average deposits – checking accounts, savings accounts, CDs, etc. That would be 1,000 x $50,000 = $50,000,000 ($50 million) in deposits. Now, let’s say that the bank pays an average of 1.00% in interest on this money: they would owe $500,000 annually in interest, plus they would need to pay rent on the bank branch, utilities, salaries for all the tellers, security, managers and officers, insurance, office supplies, etc. So, in short, it doesn’t work if the bank was to just take in deposits and hold them – it needs to take the deposit money and put it to work making money of its own: both to pay the agreed upon interest and all the expenses (and then some, because banks are for profit enterprises). So banks hold a fraction of their deposits in reserve, in case they are requested by the depositors on any given day, and take the rest and either make loans or buy assets, like treasury bonds and bills.
When it comes to making loans the banks needs to evaluate the borrowers and ensure they are highly likely to pay back the loan, with interest. When it comes to investing in bonds its important to analyze and forecast the future value of the bonds so that if the bank is forced to sell in a hurry it doesn’t lose money on the investment. So the banks take risk, and they do it with (mostly) their depositors’ money. All of this also means that when a lot of depositors demand their money at once the bank is in a tough spot: it needs to provide the depositors their money, but doing so may require it to sell its loans and investments.
This scene, from the movie It’s a Wonderful Life depicts the problem for a bank perfectly: it keeps enough cash on hand to satisfy some depositors demanding their money on a given day; usually it is a multiple of how many actually do, but if everyone wants their money on the same day there could be trouble!
The Bailey Building and Loan “bank run” depicted in the film needed to only deal with as many as its customers as could fit in its building, as opposed to recent bank runs in the last few weeks where customers could use an app on their phone to move some or all of their deposits out from anywhere. So, while banks can move faster than ever – there’s more markets and more opportunities to sell assets the same day to meet depositor demand, the depositor’s ability to demand cash is also much faster and easier than in the past, so the fundamental risk for banks has not changed. All of that said, the existence of the FDIC means that depositors are covered for all deposits up to $250,000, and would have no need to demand their cash, or accept pennies on the dollar for their deposits, in most cases. | <urn:uuid:86f07ddd-8886-4bdc-9e9e-6d00c25fd475> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://moneywizard.us/category/uncategorized | 2024-03-01T03:34:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.975304 | 762 |

Once upon a time I built myself a house beneath a delightful tree, but late on a certain afternoon I began to get old. The sounds of the evening unnerved me as they had never done before. I drew my curtains in order to feel more safe. Then it got very dark, and I slept a long time. When I opened the door in the morning, I discovered bulldozers digging everything up. A man in a hard hat told me to get out; this property had been condemned for nonpayment.—Why not? I thought. I’m too old for this.
I bought myself a well-made house in the city and furnished it as comfortably as I liked. This time I made certain that everything was paid for. No noises ever came through the windows. My soft bed whispered ever more sweetly to me at night, and warm air sang to me from the ceiling ducts. I went to the door, but the door said: Do you really want to go out? Stay awhile; you’ll be so much happier here.—Warm sticky drops of something fell on my head. I looked up, and saw that the ceiling was salivating. This house of mine meant to eat me! So I rushed to the closet to get my coat, but the closet said: I wouldn’t do that if I were you.—I pulled at the doorhandle, but the closet remained as tightly closed as the vagina of my first girlfriend, who had never been in the mood. I sat down on the bed to decide what to do. The mattress felt softer than ever, and I became a trifle sleepy.—Now wouldn’t you like a little nap? my pillow whispered. I’ll give it to you just the way you like it.—So I lay back on my soft, soft bed, and my pillow wrapped around my face to kiss me. In an instant I couldn’t breathe.
After I ripped the pillow’s flabby folds off my mouth, goosedown started whirling around me like malignant snowflakes, seeking to choke me. I leaped up, stepped into my shoes and kicked the closet door until it squealed. When I turned the knob, it opened with a sob and a shudder, wetting my hand with its tears.—I thought you loved me, it said. I do love you, I said. Now where’s my coat?
Wouldn’t you rather play dress-up? The weather report predicts a cold front. If you stay indoors with me today, I’ll show you costumes you’ve never seen. You can be either a king or a queen.
If I play with you today, will you try to stop me from going tomorrow? I’ve always loved you, said the closet. It will never be easy to let you go. Well, if I stay here forever, what do you have to offer me?
What do you mean? What way is that to talk to someone who would give you everything?
If you’ll give me everything, start by giving me my coat.
Are you saying it’s over?
Of course not, I said, stroking the shiny cool doorhandle in just the way it liked. I’m going shopping so I can bring you back some lovely, lovely clothes.
Do you promise? whispered the closet. I promise.
I put on my coat, but just then the refrigerator spoke my name. It wished to offer me a really, really fancy piece of cheese. The instant I heard that, my mouth began to water, and once that happened, the ceiling dripped more saliva on me. That discouraged my appetite, so I went to the window to investigate the weather. But I lacked means to determine whether or not the closet had lied, because rain was running down the inside of the pane—the tears of my house, which feared that it might not be able to eat me.
Since the door refused to unlock, I broke the window with the base of a gooseneck lamp whose head kept hissing, swiveling round and attempting to bite me. By now the world had grown dark. I smashed out every last shard, threw that quacking, squawking lamp into the hole, and poised myself to escape from my grave-house. Perhaps I should have departed sooner. The bathroom door kept slamming to and fro, the lights glowed red, and the oven timer was screaming. To tell you the truth, I wished that I could have seen something more than blackness outside. How far down did the night go?—It’s past your bedtime, the house threatened.—Leaping into space, I said to myself: This is the last time I’ll ever allow myself to get old.

Some dudes get all the pussy.
Take my man Dusty. We used to go to the clubs together and hang real tight when life was all college and part-time jobs and staying out real late. He would go up to broads on the street and say one or two things and then they’d find some spot and do their thing.
Later, he’d tell me all about it. I thought it was bullshit too, but I lived with the dude for two years after college. Yeah, some dudes get all the pussy. Back then I would wear these tighty-whitey drawers to sleep. Don’t ask me why. Once I came out in the middle of the night to pee and ran into one of his broads. Later found out she was a friend of my sister’s. Never been so embarrassed. I done fucked one woman in my life. Married her. Some sad shit, really. I’m not religious. Tried to whore around, but Dusty said when I spoke to a broad I always sabotaged myself. Used to come in like a joker. Say some funny shit. Make them laugh. Humor was originally a mating tactic, right? Not no more. They thought I was funny, but they never wanted to fuck me. Dusty said some shit to me one time that fucked up my head. He said, You ever find a clown sexy? I haven’t. No one else has either.
This one chick said she was in a relationship. That’s how she was trying to blow me off. I said, Me too. I wasn’t in a relationship. I thought she’d laugh and re-think not wanting to talk to me. At the very least we could have some phone conversations and I’d learn about life. Naw. She stared at me real solemn like she was sad for me and said, Then you need to be more honest with that woman. The way she looked at me was real soulful, man. Like she had drowned over and over in thick black rivers of hurt or something. I started to feel bad for the imaginary chick I was trying to cheat on. For a long time I thought of myself as some shit on the bottom of deep tread boots.
And the things Dusty be saying to women. Hey Fatty Boom-Boom come talk to me, girl. They find all that stuff endearing. Well, sometimes. He gets called an asshole a lot. That dude is an asshole to tell you the truth. I love him like I love my big brother though. Saying vulgar shit has worked for him. I don’t know why. And then sometimes he’s not vulgar. Sometimes he comes in smooth and calm and friendly. Told me once, You got to look at the little cues they giving off. Figure out what they like. What they missing in life and then you be that.
That’s something I could never figure out.
He got this thing he does. He whistles like an old man. Like Bigsby Wolf in them old Warner Brothers cartoons. We called him Bigsby for a while, but that didn’t take. That whistle worked like shit.
I got this friend. She’s a fatty boom-boom. Girl got good geometry. Well-endowed in the back. Don’t matter what she wear someone always got something to say. What you think something like that does to a woman’s mental state? She’s always pissed about it. Comes into work like she just run a groping line. They don’t touch, usually. But yelling bitch when she don’t talk and commenting on her ass and making jokes and slapping five and eyefucking, it accumulates. I listen. I admit in the old days Dusty done some bitch calling, but he grew from that. Says that’s young boy shit. Now he says, They don’t want to fuck me, I find a bird that do.
I never liked the bitch calling.
But my friend, Fatty Boom-Boom, she won’t fuck me either. I never tried, I know though. I don’t know if I’d even know how to fuck a broad who wasn’t my wife. Fatty comes in exasperated one day. And she tells me, as she does sometimes, that in her younger days she used to get it on, not indiscriminately or randomly, but more freely with dudes. Not just dudes she was seeing but one-time things with dudes from the club or the gym or class. Even dudes who approached her on the streets. Respectful dudes, she said. None of them wolf-whistling-eyefucking-ass-commenting-bitch-calling types. I tell her about Dusty again. She calls him the Whistling Wolf, like the big wolf that all the wolf hunters down in the Wildlands is looking for—they say The Whistling Wolf hunts during the day and looks to take babies from prams and you never see him, but you might hear his whistle before he attacks and as he escapes. She says my man’s nickname with disgust and righteous fury, but then we start comparing notes and I’m like yes he’s tall, about 6’7 and yes some of his bottom teeth are crooked, and yes, back in the day he did have cornrows for a brief period, but he cut that shit off. Fuck. Some dudes get all the pussy. I look at her geometric curves and I whistle playfully. To kill the Whistling Wolf would bring prestige, but they say you don’t kill him, he seduces you with his whistle and takes what he wants. I whistle again while she turns and her hips bounce as she shakes them playfully and mockingly. I whistle again. A joke. But it sounds sad to me.

17: Cadillac XTS
Alongside the lowly ATS model is the equally boring XTS. We’re not sure what has happened to the once-radical styling of Cadillac models, but it’s apparent that the XTS is also lacking in that department. With a high price tag and a perceived lack of quality, the XTS is about as boring as you can get. In recent years, Cadillac has tried to spruce the XTS model up to no avail (via Car & Driver).
Consumers are generally discontent with what the Cadillac brand has to offer right now. Outside of the legendary V-Series cars, the standard Cadillac fare is bland and boring. There was a time when Cadillacs were the pinnacle of luxury, but that time has passed. The XTS is a prime example of a luxury car gone wrong. | <urn:uuid:d2dbfe4e-723b-4dc0-8bd9-189f613a8a58> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://motor-junkie.com/35-new-cars-that-smart-drivers-avoid-like-the-plague/51488/19/ | 2024-03-01T03:54:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.975808 | 173 |

What is Deep Brain Stimulation?
Deep brain stimulation, or DBS, a surgical therapy that involves the implantation of stimulating electrodes into select targets of the brain. These electrodes are used to interrupt faulty communication between brain regions that result in the disabling symptoms of Parkinson’s disease.
Why the UF Center For Movement Disorders & Neurorestoration for DBS?
The University of Florida (UF) Center for Movement Disorders & Neurorestoration is an international leader in the use of DBS implants for treating Parkinson disease and other movement disorders. We have performed more DBS procedures annually than most medical centers in the United States. The program is supported by the National Institutes of Health and several other funding agencies, and performs cutting edge research. The FDA has approved DBS for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, Essential Tremor, and certain Dystonias. Use of DBS in other disorders is an active area of research here at UF (Tourette, OCD, Depression, others).
How does DBS work?
Understanding DBS for Parkinson’s disease requires a look at certain parts of the brain. Like electrical wiring in an appliance, if one or more circuits fails, the machine malfunctions or stops working. Research has shown that in Parkinson’s disease, there are faulty “circuits” that send abnormal signals to certain brain regions that result in disease symptoms. Interrupting these faulty signals using DBS improves symptoms in select cases. DBS is thus said to modulate neuronal circuits, but its exact mechanism of action remains unclear.
Am I a candidate?
At the UF Center for Movement Disorders & Neurorestoration (CMDNR), DBS is performed by an experienced team including Dr. Michael Okun in Neurology and Dr. Kelly Foote in Neurosurgery. A preliminary evaluation in Neurology is the first step in becoming a patient. A potential candidate for DBS is typically scheduled for a Fast Track Evaluation. Fast Track involves a comprehensive two day evaluation usually scheduled on Monday and Tuesday. The Fast Track begins with an appointment with the neurosurgeon, Dr. Kelly Foote, followed by a 4 hour neuropsychological exam with a Neuropsychologist that measures your memory, thinking and cognition. The second day includes meeting with a Psychiatrist, physical therapist, occupational therapist, a Speech and Swallow evaluation and a data collection visit at the McKnight Brain Institute.
Following the Fast Track evaluation, the DBS team meets to discuss evaluations and make recommendations. These meetings occur monthly and surgery is typically scheduled 1-3 months following the Fast Track evaluation.
Things to consider
DBS is an elective surgery that you may choose as a treatment. Following your Fast Track evaluation, our team will contact you about your candidacy. If you are an appropriate candidate, you will need to be sure to discuss the risks/benefits with your doctors and your family. Like any surgery, DBS comes with the risk of complications. Although the risk of serious or permanent injury from DBS is low, it is important for you to understand that you could develop permanent side effects.
The DBS surgery and subsequent visits also require a commitment of time (once a month visits for the first six months and regular visits thereafter), energy, travel time and depending on your insurance, you may be required to cover some of the expenses.
Preparing for surgery
If you decide to pursue DBS surgery, your next step is to plan and prepare for the operative procedure and recovery. The CMDNR staff specializes in DBS therapy for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, and will provide you with support throughout your recovery.
As your surgery date approaches, it is normal for you to experience nervousness or anxiety. The best recommendation is to plan ahead, stay organized, speak with other patients who have had the surgery and plan to bring a friend or family member to be with you before, during and for at least a month or two following your surgery.
The day prior to your surgery you will visit our Neurosurgery clinic for a pre-operative evaluation and if you are going to be under anesthesia for the procedure, you will have an appointment with anesthesiology. Your pre-operative MRI may be taken the day before surgery.
On the day of your surgery, the neurosurgeon will administer local anesthesia to areas of your head and secure a temporary head frame to your skull to guide electrode placement during surgery. Next, you will get a head CT (CAT scan).
Once in the operating room, the neurosurgeon will inject anesthesia into your scalp and then use a drill to create a dime size hole in the skull where the microelectrode will be inserted. The microelectrode recording, a critical part of surgery, is then performed by the neurologist. The recording guides the neurosurgeon and neurologist in placing the lead in the exact area of the brain that will give optimal results. This part of the surgery can take several hours, depending upon the number of microelectrode passes needed to pinpoint the target site.
During the microelectrode recording, you will be awake and the neurologist will ask you to move your face, arm or leg. You may feel twitches, pulling or tingling as electrical current goes through the microelectrode. This is normal. After the microelectrode recording has precisely located the target, the permanent DBS leads will be placed, connected to an external generator, and tested in the operating room by administrating brief electrical pulses. The actual implantable pulse generator (IPG) is often placed several weeks later during a second surgery.
Adjustment of stimulation
Programming of the stimulator is performed in an outpatient setting and begins approximately one week following the IPG surgery. Programming is performed by a trained nurse, physician assistant and/or a neurologist who will use a small handheld device to adjust the settings of the DBS system. Most Parkinson’s disease patients undergoing DBS therapy will require numerous programming sessions to achieve optimized symptom control. We ask our Parkinson’s disease patients to plan on visiting clinic once a month for the first six months.
Once the DBS system has been implanted, there are some strict rules to follow regarding other electrical devices. Be sure to speak to your doctor about magnetic and electrical devices as well as magnetic currents in the environment, as they can cause the DBS system to malfunction and potentially be dangerous.
You will receive a hand-held magnet and/or patient control device that will allow you to turn your DBS system on and off as well as check the battery power in your device. It is important to carry your handheld device with you as some types of electromagnet or magnetic fields, including theft detection devices in department stores, may turn off the DBS system.
You should never have diathermy or body MRI’s as these may cause permanent injury. Head MRI’s must be supervised by an experienced team with a head receive coil and under FDA specified conditions.

Aug. 14, 2023 /Human Interest/ — There is no evidence to support the conspiracy theory that the Maui wildfires were a deliberate act to drive out locals so that developers can turn it into a paradise for the wealthy. The fires were most likely caused by a combination of factors, including dry conditions, strong winds, and human activity.
The conspiracy theory appears to have originated on social media, where some users have shared images of beams of light in the sky that they claim are evidence of directed energy weapons being used to start the fires. However, these images are either old or have been misidentified. For example, one image that is being shared is actually a photo of a meteor shower.
The National Weather Service has said that the Maui wildfires were fueled by dry conditions and strong winds from nearby Hurricane Dora. The agency also said that there is no evidence that directed energy weapons were involved in the fires.
The idea that the wildfires were a deliberate act to drive out locals is also not supported by the facts. The fires affected a wide area of Maui, including both tourist destinations and residential areas. There is no evidence that the fires were targeted at any particular group of people.
In fact, the Maui wildfires have actually had the opposite effect of driving out locals. Many locals have come together to help each other rebuild their homes and communities. There is a strong sense of resilience and community on Maui, and the wildfires have only served to strengthen those bonds.
If you encounter someone who is spreading the conspiracy theory about the Maui wildfires, you can help to dispel it by sharing the facts. You can also direct them to reliable sources of information, such as the National Weather Service or the Maui Fire Department. | <urn:uuid:eec5fd70-1db0-49a1-92fe-a66f5c631e8a> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://mpelembe.net/index.php/maui-wildfires-conspiracy-theory-is-it-true/ | 2024-03-01T04:03:24Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.983944 | 352 |
The notorious Android banking trojan known as SharkBot has once again made an appearance on the Google Play Store by masquerading as antivirus and cleaner apps.
“This new dropper doesn’t rely on Accessibility permissions to automatically perform the installation of the dropper Sharkbot malware,” NCC Group’s Fox-IT said in a report. “Instead, this new version asks the victim to install the malware as a fake update for the antivirus to stay protected against threats.”
The apps in question, Mister Phone Cleaner and Kylhavy Mobile Security, have over 60,000 installations between them and are designed to target users in Spain, Australia, Poland, Germany, the U.S., and Austria –
- Mister Phone Cleaner (com.mbkristine8.cleanmaster, 50,000+ downloads)
- Kylhavy Mobile Security (com.kylhavy.antivirus, 10,000+ downloads)
The droppers are designed to drop a new version of SharkBot, dubbed V2 by Dutch security firm ThreatFabric, which features an updated command-and-control (C2) communication mechanism, a domain generation algorithm (DGA), and a fully refactored codebase.
Fox-IT said it discovered a newer version 2.25 on August 22, 2022, that introduces a function to siphon cookies when victims log in to their bank accounts, while also removing the ability to automatically reply to incoming messages with links to the malware for propagation.
By eschewing the Accessibility permissions for installing SharkBot, the development highlights that the operators are actively tweaking their techniques to avoid detection, not to mention find alternative methods in the face of Google’s newly imposed restrictions to curtail the abuse of the APIs.
Other notable information stealing capabilities include injecting fake overlays to harvest bank account credentials, logging keystrokes, intercepting SMS messages, and carrying out fraudulent fund transfers using the Automated Transfer System (ATS).
It’s no surprise that malware poses an evolving and omnipresent threat, and despite continued efforts on the part of Apple and Google, app stores are vulnerable to unknowingly being abused for distribution, with the developers of these apps trying every trick in the book to dodge security checks.
“Until now, SharkBot’s developers seem to have been focusing on the dropper in order to keep using Google Play Store to distribute their malware in the latest campaigns,” researchers Alberto Segura and Mike Stokkel said. | <urn:uuid:e8d09d93-56f5-43c4-b4fb-2160803efcff> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://mrhacker.co/malware/fake-antivirus-and-cleaner-apps-caught-installing-sharkbot-android-banking-trojan | 2024-03-01T04:26:56Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.907368 | 522 |
A pilot project in Milton aims to convert one of the town’s buses from diesel to electric. The Town of Milton is teaming up with a local company, MTB Transit Solutions, to make the conversion happen. This will be the first transition of its kind in Canada.
Tony D’Alessandro from Transit Services says the town is pioneering this move,
as the conversion process itself is a first in Canada and will help Milton decide if this change should be spread to the entire bus fleet.
D’Alessandro says, “It’s really going to give us a lot of information about metrics, how much diesel we’re saving, about how much Greenhouse gas emission reductions we’ll be seeing, what the maintenance costs going to look like?” D’Alessandro says it will move the city closer to its environmental sustainability goals.
Statistics Canada says a quarter of Canada’s Greenhouse gas emissions come from vehicles like diesel buses. Milton says switching a bus from diesel to electric could cut more than 51,000 kilograms of emissions over six years.
MTB Transit president Gara Hay says the conversion will take about six months and all the resources used are Canadian. “We take out the diesel engine, we take out the transmission, we take out the radiator and replace it with a much smaller electric motor and put batteries placed around the bus.”
When it comes to the rider experience, the electric bus is said to be a more comfortable ride with less noise and less vibration. The city expects the total process of the project to cost about $900,000 which factors in charging units, vehicle components and training.
Hay says, “We think there’s a good market potential to convert other forms of transportation like a school bus, a mining vehicle, maybe a garbage truck in the future.”
The switch will be done by the end of the year and the bus is expected to hit the road in early 2024. | <urn:uuid:6dfe1b55-3ac0-46ed-801a-a9b36226cae2> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://mtbtransitsolutionsusa.com/archives/news/town-of-milton-first-in-canada-to-convert-old-diesel-bus-to-electric | 2024-03-01T03:20:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.938025 | 413 |
Quincy Jones: The A&M Years
Wednesday, September 6, 2017
Concert Reflections by A. Scott Galloway
I’m going to begin this review by stating two things upfront. This salute to Quincy Jones focusing on his early `70s big band albums Walking in Space (CTI/A&M – 1969), Gula Matari (CTI/A&M – 1970) and Smackwater Jack (A&M – 1971) was THE concert in this summer’s Hollywood Bowl Wednesday Night Jazz Series that I was most looking forward to. The reason being that I grew up with these glorious gatefold albums which are bedrock staples of my development of not just musical enjoyment but musical over-standing. That is to say I know them inside-out, backwards-n-forwards, like the backs of my hands assimilating Grady Tate grace notes. The music that transpired this evening under the stars was a frustrating affair dotted with some jaw-dropping contributions that quelled some but not all of my disappointment. I’m electing to start with the not-so-good news first.
While some very fine musicians were dispatched to present this music – I believe from Q’s original charts pulled by librarian Marty Frenton-Frear and conducted by the esteemed John Clayton – there were two quintessential elements missing: the full dynamic punch required to sock it to the audience’s collective solar-plexus and the “magic” that Jones often speaks of when a room is properly prepared for God to walk through. Their absences were the culprit for why there were no standing ovations after such powerhouse pieces as Q’s electrifying TV hit “Theme from ‘Ironside’” (THE first piece EVER to wed Big Band horn blasts with the spine-tingling then-new far out sounds of the Moog synthesizer), the multi-dimensional Afro-Jazz Suite “Gula Matari” (that transports you to deepest darkest Africa for a sensual midnight soul patrol stroll that descends into a hellish run-for-your-life chase and back) or a downright bitter truncation of Q’s amazing arrangement of Marvin Gaye’s “What’s Going On” – a masterpiece for which it is never a strain to repeat is as timely now, even more urgently so, than it was when Q was among the very first to boldly cover it back in `71.
As a reviewer with a laptop and outlets from which to write about the music as it happens, I have grown bone weary of being led to the river of there just wasn’t enough rehearsal time to get all of this together when it comes to live music. I am often told my expectations are unrealistic and far too high. However, to me, it’s simple: it is one thing to “get through” these awe-inspiring “charts” but quite another to bring them to full-dynamic-range life. That feat requires an intuitive killer reflex that comes from musicians thoroughly absorbing the works at hand. On top of all that – this is a salute to Quincy Jones, a Living Legend who resides mere minutes from Hollywood’s heart who left indelible imprints on music, movies and television…here then around the globe. Q had the best seat in the house – seated stage right behind Dave Grusin’s Fender Rhodes – and while he was surely honored and knocked out by what was best about the night, I will go out on a limb to say that he had to be somewhat disappointed that the ensemble charts as a whole were not delivered with the PUNCH he wrote and produced them with that would have brought the audience to its feet – en masse – throughout the night.
One final note about the downside: While it was generous for this program to be opened by Dirty Loops lead singer Jonah Nilsson (a highly capable blue-eyed soul lover of Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson) and singer/bassist Richard Bona with his ensemble Mandekan Cubano (props to pianist Osmany Paredes for an extra fine solo within), I am not alone in my declaration that this entire evening would have been better served as dedicated to just the three Quincy Jones albums at hand, possibly in their entirety, with intermission. They are 5-star works of contemporary jazz at its finest worthy of recognition and respect in full.
NOW, the sweetest aspect of the evening was experiencing flautist Hubert Laws and vocalist Valerie Simpson not just reprising their vital roles from the original recordings but investing them with much love and heightened sensibilities. The program opened with Q’s classic arrangement of Richard Carpenter’s “Walkin’” which featured a tasty alto solo by Bob Sheppard and some understated improv from Dave Grusin on piano and John Beasley on vibes-patched synth. Next was “Walking in Space,” Q’s genius take on the Rock Opera “Hair’s” ode to autoerotic bliss. Trombonist Art Velasco truly shined here (Q always loved trombone). Lewis Nash, an A+ anchor on drums all night long, played but was shortchanged in his critical solo that leads all back into the groove (Grady and I have your back, man). The aforementioned “Theme from ‘Ironside’” benefitted greatly from nice solos all the way around by Bob Sheppard, the indispensable Laws and a particularly peppery Sean Jones on trumpet. This was followed by the finest song of the night: the late, great bassist Ray Brown’s “Brown Ballad” from Smackwater Jack, played to Brown’s widow Cecilia who was in the house, and featuring a heart-melting and spot-on Grégoire Maret bringing the harmonica mastery of the immortal Jean “Toots” Thielemans back to life with all the emotion and cinematic flourish the man from Brussels deserves. This was the stuff that makes eyes water…
“Brown Ballad” was smartly sequentially followed by guitarist Arthur Adams’ “Love and Peace,” a feature for Lee Ritenour who was reprising the signature work of the late, great Eric Gale for two sanctified choruses here. But it was tenor man Rickey Woodard who stole the number right out from under him with some robust Soulful Sunday wailing that was another of the evening’s most standout solos, packed with emotion and taste. Ritenour made up for this in the next song, the sweeping, intended-to-be-epic “Gula Matari,” the night’s one piece composed by Quincy Jones himself. Valerie Simpson truly transcended her evocative reading on the original recording (with haunting background vocal assist from Lynne Fiddmont, Valerie Fiddmont and Tammi Brown), guest pianist Alfredo Rodriguez ripped the ivories with line flourishes AND rhythmic comping for the heavens, Ritenour brought the voodoo with a guitar solo played through effects and once again, Hubert laid down the “By Laws” on flute… Still, the edge-of-your-seat dynamic passages of the chart lacked that emphatic wallop. The less said the better about the evilly edited version of Gaye’s “What’s Going On” (which contained an entire section of the key modulation naked of a solo over the top – criminal) except to say Christian McBride – emcee for the evening – did the Grey Goose he imbibed earlier much justice with his liquid song-opening upright bass solo.
It took an appearance from Q himself conducting the band for the encore of his buddy Benny Golson’s classic chart “Killer Joe” to close things out on a nostalgic and hard swinging note, inspiring one last gem from Laws and some fittingly slaying muted trumpet from Sean Jones doing Freddie Hubbard quite proud.
In a parallel universe, there’s a band with more intestinal fortitude to animate this peerless music of L’Q in the way it was intended to knock audiences on their butts upon every hallowed resurrection.

A Record Reflection by A. Scott Galloway
It’s been 10 years since keyboardist/composer/arranger Bob James has released an album leading his trio. Eager to return to a largely acoustic three man set up that has unique challenges for each player, he dives in with an eclectic program of originals and covers for the audiophile Evosound label called Espresso – an interesting title as there is no song on the collection with that name and no song that is especially “fast” as to denote a caffeine rush. My guess is that it reflects a laidback chill. Half of this 11-song collection is really interesting, the other half pretty standard Bob James faire.
On the highlighted side is “Submarine,” a fond and funky look back to a now classic song “Nautilus” from his album Bob James I (CTI – 1974) that went on to become one of the most sampled jazz tracks in Hip Hop. “Submarine” finds Bob sampling aspects of his eerie old track then turning it into a call and response play along, with drummer Billy Kilson punctuating a drum machine track with his live accents and bassist Michael Palazzolo coming in and out with soulful upright and electric parts. It’s a very cool and innovative piece unlike anything else on the album. Clocking in at 4:25, it’s a very radio-friendly piece for jazz, urban ac and smooth jazz outlets all the same.
Also intriguing is a remake of “Mister Magic,” the Grover Washington Jr. classic (composed by percussionist Ralph MacDonald) that Bob produced, arranged and played on in `75 (there was later a vocal version recorded by Roberta Flack). The new arrangement shifts the time signature from 4/4 to 6/8 for the most part giving it a waltzing chamber kind of feel. A busier modernization of Fats Waller’s “Ain’t Misbehavin’” is more challenging arrangement-wise but not as successful. For more soul, head straight over to “Topside” a taste of `60s-era Chicago groove a la Chess Records gems by Ray Bryant and Ramsey Lewis that is a heavy backbeat strutter with electric piano and a touch of vocals.
The beautiful side of Bob is captured on “One Afternoon” a floating melancholy piece which includes a small string section. And then there is “Promenade” on which Bob’s signature playing is tastefully dispatched over a composition with some especially lovely chord changes.
The remaining tracks “Bulgogi,” “Shadow Dance,” “Il Boccalone,” Mojito Ride” and “Boss Lady” live up to James’ efficient standards that sounds terrific on a good sound system and with an eclecticism that transcends a typical trio album (all of the cats get to shine)… just not in especially innovative or exciting ways.

More from Mary
When I first heard of the title for my latest Love Inspired Suspense, I smiled. Dangerous Amish Showdown reminds me of the old westerns where the good guys face off with the bad guys and always win. As a child I loved watching them, mostly because my dad loved them so much, and yes, a big draw for me besides sharing the time with him, was seeing the good guys win. It’s what I try to put into every single book I write, and it’s exactly what happens in Dangerous Amish Showdown.
Lately, I find myself reminiscing a lot about childhood things such as watching old westerns with my dad, and smiling at those simpler times.
In Dangerous Amish Showdown, it takes coming back to his simple childhood Amish community for Mason Shetler to realize how special that life once was for him. Through the courage found in a little girl who has lost everything, and the strength of a woman whose future is uncertain, Mason discovered what he had been searching for all along.
I truly hope you enjoy Mason and Willa’s fight to protect young Samantha and the love they find along the way. And I hope their happy ending leaves you with a smile on your face, and maybe takes you back to a simpler time in your life.

Appendicitis: Symptoms, Causes, and Treatment
Appendicitis is one of the most frequent reasons for surgery worldwide. It consists of inflammation of the vermicular appendix, a small structure of the gastrointestinal system.
It’s well-known due to the very specific symptoms it presents, despite the fact that on some occasions, the diagnostic process may be hindered by anatomical variations or some differential diagnoses. If you want to know a little more about this disease, we’ve prepared the following article. Keep reading!
What are the main symptoms?
Appendicitis has a typical pattern of presentation that’s closely related to the anatomical location of the appendix. It’s a small organ in relation to the cecum, the first portion of the colon. It’s located near the ileocecal junction, the site where the small intestine connects to the large intestine.
In the vast majority of cases, this area is in the lower right quadrant of the abdomen and is called the right iliac fossa. However, the pain doesn’t always start there. Sometimes a feeling of discomfort begins in the epigastrium before radiating to the right iliac fossa.
The epigastrium is the middle and upper quadrant of the abdomen, that is, the one that’s above the navel. That’s why, at first, many people can confuse the pain with gastritis or a peptic ulcer.
In addition to pain (which is usually sharp and intense), there are other associated symptoms such as those described below:
- Fever: Can be very high, whether or not it’s preceded by chills.
- Loss of appetite, also called hyporexia.
- Nausea and vomiting.
Why does appendicitis occur?
The appendix is a hollow organ, which means that it has a cavity inside. This is common throughout the entire digestive tract. Being so small, it’s more or less easy for it to become clogged by things inside or outside the GI tract.
A good part of the cases of appendicitis is associated with the presence of fecaliths, which are small particles of very hard feces. They occur in patients with chronic constipation, in whom it’s normal to produce this texture.
Of course, there are also associated dietary factors, such as the consumption of seeds and small objects. Intestinal parasites and the growth of lymphoid tissue around the appendix can also cause obstruction.
How does the appendix become inflamed?
Once the obstruction occurs, the increase in pressure within the appendix leads to the interruption of blood flow around the organ. This results in the progressive death of the cells found in its wall with an associated inflammatory phenomenon.
Later, some bacteria present within the lumen of the intestine can penetrate the walls of the appendix and cause local infections. Organ perforation and the inflammatory process lead to difficult-to-manage clinical pictures such as abdominal abscesses and peritonitis.
How common is appendicitis?
In most of the world, it’s the most common emergency surgical illness. This can be explained by the very particular characteristics of its anatomy, mentioned in the previous section.
In fact, it’s interesting that during some abdominal procedures (for any other reason) the removal of the appendix (appendectomy) is performed preventively, due to the high risk of developing the disease in almost all age groups.
It tends to be a little more common in those countries with a high prevalence of constipation. This happens due to diets with little fiber, water, and vegetable content.
How is appendicitis diagnosed?
Even when symptoms present characteristically, in some patients, a diagnostic dilemma may exist. This happens, above all, in women.
In addition to the physical examination and the medical history, the following complementary tests could be requested to reach a more accurate diagnosis:
- Complete blood cell count (CBC) or complete hematology (HC): Allows doctors to assess the white blood cell count and hemoglobin values.
- Acute phase reactants: They’re measured in the blood and the most commonly used are ESR and PCR, which make it possible to determine if there’s an active inflammatory process.
- Abdominal ultrasound: Allows for the visualization of inflammatory signs around the appendix, although it’s not always visible.
- Simple abdominal X-ray: Rarely requested, but it aims to observe the cause of the obstruction.
As we mentioned before, the diagnostic process in women can be more complicated than in men. This is due to the abundance of anatomical elements present in the pelvic region of women, which are also susceptible to inflammation and require surgery.
These organs include the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. For various reasons, any of these can become infected and cause profuse pain, fever, and vomiting.
Some of the conditions that most confuse doctors are pelvic inflammatory disease, salpingitis, ovarian abscesses, and ectopic pregnancies. For this last reason, a pregnancy test may be requested before any operation is performed.
Complementary studies are usually used to determine the origin of the pain. For example, a transvaginal ultrasound could provide valuable information for the diagnosis of gynecological infections that are mimicking appendicitis.
Due to the absence of the aforementioned organs, the presentation of classic symptoms of appendicitis in a man doesn’t usually lead to diagnostic doubts. However, it’s not always so easy.
On some occasions, the appendix can be located in different areas within the abdominal cavity. This can be on the opposite side (that is, in the left lower quadrant) or below the liver.
As presented in a case review published in 2015, left-sided appendicitis is rare, but it can happen. In such circumstances, only certain imaging studies such as computed tomography can provide sufficient information.
What’s the treatment for appendicitis?
Despite the fact that it’s an inflammatory and infectious process that can be alleviated with the administration of intravenous antibiotics, a case of appendicitis won’t be solved in this way. A surgical procedure known as an appendectomy is necessary.
This is an emergency procedure, which doesn’t mean that it should be done immediately. If the symptoms have a very short evolution time, doctors indicate the aforementioned studies to achieve diagnostic clarity.
Laparoscopic appendectomy: The great favorite
This procedure is currently the preferred technique and consists of making a small abdominal incision through which devices with an optical lens are inserted, as described in scientific studies. This allows for the visualization of the cavity in a quite acceptable way.
Laparoscopy has fewer complications and allows for various procedures, such as cholecystectomies, sterilizations, and pancreatectomies. Despite this, it requires fairly good technique on the part of the surgeon.
In addition, it can also be performed for exploratory and diagnostic purposes. This is because, due to the small incision, it’s a minimally invasive intervention.
When to go to the doctor?
The main symptom of appendicitis is abdominal pain in the right iliac fossa. If you experience this problem, the diagnosis is quite likely. As the hours go by, the rest of the aforementioned signs are added.
In these cases, you need to go to an emergency service as soon as possible. Depending on the hospital, the first may be with a family doctor or emergency specialist. However, you will then be referred to a specialist in general surgery and the digestive system, who will take over.

After the previous week’s adventures in the north of the country, it was time to travel south into the area known as the Shfela (or the Judean Lowlands), an area of hills that lies between Jerusalem and the coastal plain.
Today’s focus was on three sites: Tel Maresha (also known as Marissa), Beit Guvrin and Horvat Midras, spanning from the Hellenist period (2nd/3rd century BCE) until the Bar Kochba Revolt in the 2nd Century CE.
Our day began at Beit Guvrin National Park, at the upper part of the site, which is actually the ancient remains of Tel Maresha. This was originally a Jewish town in the First Temple Period, and it is still possible to see part of its original wall. Later, in the 2nd/3rd centuries CE, it was settled by Edomites who hailed originally from the area south of the Dead Sea (hence the Edom mountains in Jordan) but over the years they were joined by Phoenicians from Sidon (now in Lebanon) and retired Greek soldiers from the army of Alexander the Great, once he had conquered the region. The dominant culture seems to have been Hellenist, based on architecture that has been found.
The vast majority of the city does not remain, however there are a huge amount of underground caves to explore. These originally functioned as quarries but over the years were converted to form columbaria (pigeon coops), olive oil presses, cisterns, storerooms, even hideaways and living quarters. The attention to aesthetic detail is quite remarkable and the caves are extremely impressive. It was also pleasant to be hidden away from the searing summer heat. Our guide had helped excavate the site and it was nice to hear his anecdotes.
There is a still a lot of the site to excavate and for those who are interested in helping out, there is the Dig for a Day programme. We paid a visit to the sites they are currently excavating; I have participated myself on a couple of occasions and it is good fun, particularly as you always find something. Even if it is just a shard of 2000 year old pottery, it is still quite exciting to have discovered it yourself!
One of the more impressive caves is the Phoenician burial cave. Discovered last century, the beautiful painted scenes and inscriptions have faded away since being exposed to light, so 20 years ago they were restored.
With this we left the Hellenist period of Maresha and moved forward to the Roman settlement in the area. There was a Jewish town from the 2nd temple period called Beit Guvrin which the Romans took over and developed into a major city named Eleutheropolis (City of the Free). We visited the bell caves which were large quarries in the Roman period, and then popped over the motorway to the other section of the national park.
In this second section it is possible to see an oval amphitheatre; until recently considered unique in Israel (the others were circular; converted hippodromes) although they have just discovered one also in Caesarea and are busy excavating it. We wandered through the ruins and also part of what was once a huge bathhouse covering 4000m2.
To conclude our time at the site we visited the Crusader church which was later converted into a Mamluk fortress; the quality of the soil and water sources in the area meant that it was a popular place for continued settlement.
From Beit Guvrin, we travelled north to Horvat Midras. Here we learned about the guerrilla warfare developed by the Jews involved in the Bar Kochba Revolt against the Romans in the 2nd century. They adapted or dug tunnel systems under towns to hide within; every now and again bursting out to surprise and attack the enemy. The Romans were unused to this and for a time had no way of dealing with it; however they eventually adapted and the Revolt was quashed. There are little remains of the town of Midras, but it is possible to crawl through the tunnels used by those involved in the rebellion; to see their hiding places and to experience a little what it must have been like to hide down there. A warning: not for the claustrophobic; not a good place to take your best new clothes either!
With this experience our day was over; next week we turn to the impact of the Crusaders on Jerusalem. | <urn:uuid:49b8f48f-302e-4f60-907a-6e60bbd27cdf> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://myisraeliguide.com/tag/bar-kochba/ | 2024-03-01T03:32:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.98283 | 930 |
Frozen Mango, Coconut & Lime Cheesecake
For the base
- 230 g digestive biscuits or shredded wheat meal
- 50 g desiccated coconut
- 110 g melted butter
For the cheesecake filling
- 3/4 cup caster sugar
- 1 lime, just the zest
- 300 mL thickened cream
- 2 x 250g cream cheese, I use Philadelphia cream cheese
For the mango swirl filling
- 2 ripe mangos peeled, deseeded, and blended until pureed
For the topping
- 2 ripe mangoes, just the cheeks thinly sliced
- 1/3 cup toasted coconut chips
- Lime slices for decorating
Prepare the base
- Crush digestive biscuits or shredded wheat until fine. Use a processor to get a fine, almost sand like consistency
- Mix with desiccated coconut and melted butter, and process again briefly to combine. It should resemble wet sand
- Press into the base of a lined cake tin, pushing it up the edges. Chill in the refrigerator whilst you make the filling.
Prepare the cheesecake filling
- Beat cream cheese, cream, caster sugar and lime zest until smooth. Place in a bowl and set aside
- Separately blend your mango flesh into a smooth puree.
- Gently fold the blended mango puree into the cheesecake filling, creating a swirl effect. Do not over mix it.
Assemble the cheesecake
- Pour the cheesecake filling onto the chilled base, ensuring it is flat and even. Cover and freeze for 4 hours or overnight
Decorate the cheesecake
- Slice the remaining two mangos and arrange them on top of the cheesecake. I like to cut them very thinly and fan them out to cover the whole cake service.
- Sprinkle toasted coconut chips over the edges of your cake, and decorate with a few slices of fresh lime.
- Remove the cheesecake from the freezer at least 30 minutes before serving.
- Slice and enjoy the delicious frozen mango, coconut &lime cheesecake! | <urn:uuid:dd3552bb-d599-477d-a9ec-e9d817b86f73> | CC-MAIN-2024-10 | https://mynutritioncreative.com/frozen-mango-coconut-lime-cheesecake/ | 2024-03-01T04:23:05Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2024-10/segments/1707947474948.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20240301030138-20240301060138-00551.warc.gz | en | 0.861172 | 427 |

Little Known Natural Remedies for Controlling Acne
Acne. It is one of the most frustrating parts of being an adolescent. Acne treatments are also a $5 billion dollar industry. Is it any wonder that there are so many products on the market for the treatment of this very common skin issue?
At My Skin’s Friend, we’re always researching ways to help eliminate or at least reduce the severity of skin issues like acne, rosacea, black heads, white heads and other skin eruptions using natural, easy to obtain, safe and inexpensive products.
Our Detox Clay Mask is one of our best products when it comes to helping with these types of skin issues but there are also natural items you can use to help reduce the severity of acne.
It's not a mystery as to why the clay helps reduce or clear up skin issue once you understand how it works below the skin surface.
This illustration explains how the negatively charged particles of the clay attract the positively charged particles of dirt in the pore to pull it out and clear up the pimple.
But saying it isn't nearly as impactful as seeing it. Take a look at this series of photos taken of a young man suffering from recurring eruptions of rosacea.
Results were accomplished using the clay mask over a ten-day period.
Another customer of ours who just turned 30 years old said she had almost daily flare ups of roseaca before she found relief with our Fast Firming Face Lift Formula.
The fact is our skin issues often signal a possible problem within our bodies. For instance, if I eat a food containing corn or its derivatives, I will get a welt on my right elbow within a few hours. Even if I treated the outside, it would have no effect on my itching because the reaction was generated from within, not without.
This is a conversation we often have with our customers when they ask about using one of our products to solve or repair a specific skin problem. Sure we love to ship our “made from scratch” organic skin and hair products but we are also aware that sometimes skin issues can be cleared up or at least reduced simply by eliminating something from your diet or having your health care provider check your hormones to make sure everything is in balance. Once that has been confirmed, then we recommend topical applications to help repair the skin from the surface.
I’ve compiled a partial list below you can get at any health food store and some are even available at your neighborhood grocery. The main reasons for acne are clogged pores and bacterial infections. It is a common skin issue that affects around 80% of people at least once in their lifetime. If you are also fed up of your acne problem and looking for chemical-free ways to prevent your breakouts, then here is a list of organic and natural remedies that actually work to control acne.
- Aloe Vera: Clean your pimples and apply some aloe vera gel on them. If natural aloe vera gel is not available, you can also use a gel or cream containing minimum 10% of organic aloe vera in it. It has natural anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties that can prevent acne and reduce their appearance. Containing water in huge amounts, it also works as a fantastic moisturizer.
- Honey: Take a drop of honey on your finger or a cotton pad and rub it into your pimples. You may also add honey in your face mask and apply. Honey is rich in antioxidants that is highly effective in clearing debris and waste from your clogged skin pores. It also has antibacterial properties that prevent acne breakouts.
- Jojoba Oil: Mix organic jojoba oil in your skin cream, gel or face mask and apply on your acne. You may also soak a cotton ball in jojoba oil and rub on your pimples. Made from jojoba shrub seeds, it is known to repair skin damage and heal wounds. It can also reduce inflammation and help you get rid of swelling, redness, inflammation and whiteheads from your face.
- Coconut Oil: Rub pure coconut oil on your pimples directly. Make sure that the coconut oil you choose is pure and natural and it should be 100% chemical-free. This oil also contains antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that can destroy bacteria that causes acne, redness and swelling in pimples. It may also accelerate recovery of open sores left by acne.
- Turmeric: Mix a pinch of turmeric in one spoon of chickpea flour, add some milk to make a paste, and apply on your acne sores. Leave for 10 minutes and then rub off while applying pressure with your fingers. Turmeric has antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties that help in different skin conditions, including acne, psoriasis, pruritus, alopecia, and atopic dermatitis.
- Oatmeal: Mix 1 teaspoon of baking soda in 2 teaspoons of oatmeal, and add water to make a paste. Apply this mixture on your face and rub. Finally rinse with water. Oatmeal has anti-inflammatory properties that naturally soothe and relieve your irritation and help in getting rid of rashes, burns, eczema, itch, and erythema. Not only this, oatmeal also protects and hydrates skin and helps in soothing inflammation and dryness caused due to acne.
So, when you have all these effective and natural remedies to control acne, why go for chemical based products and medicines that are infamous for drying your skin out? Why buy expensive “remedies” from the television commercials that simply cover up the problem instead of addressing the cause.
Make use of these natural, organic, and skin-friendly remedies that not only treat acne, but also improve your skin condition and texture as a bonus.
When you feed your skin natural, organic nutrients, you’ll see a huge difference in the way you look and feel.
