Somalia parliamentary vote is pushed back to November
| September 6th 2021
Voting for members of Somalia's lower house of parliament has been rescheduled for late November, a move that will delay the indirect election of a president.
Voting for lawmakers by elders had been due to be completed this week, with the election of a speaker and swearing-in of members of parliament happening next week -- in time for them to pick a president on Oct. 10.
But an election implementation commission has drawn up a new timetable for the drawn-out process showing that lawmakers will be picked between October 1 and November 20.
The timetable, seen by Reuters, did not give a date for when the lawmakers will elect a president.
The current government's term expired in February. A delay in holding the election, and a row over President Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed's attempt to extend his rule, caused a political crisis and an armed standoff in the streets of the capital.
That impasse was resolved in May.

shotgun next to my bed with the safey off. Someone should explain to me what the real issue is keeping it loaded with safety off. I live alone, no kids. No one but me to touch it.
All the explaining in the world isn't going to do any good if you're old enough to legally own a firearm and don't comprehend the issues involved with waking suddenly in the dark and fumbling around reaching for a loaded shotgun with the safety off.
I agree with this assessment. As others have opined, get used to where your safety is located on your shotgun and train to use it reflexively. Triggers on most shotguns are entirely too light in terms of pounds to pull and have way too short of a pull index to trust not firing the gun inadvertently with the safety off and a round chambered in what is, by definition in terms of the intended use (self-defense), a high stress situation.

$350M BOOM: Major hotel to create ‘new chapter’
A NEW four-star hotel application, to be submitted to council this week, is set to create a quality cultural, commercial and residential hub on Caloundra's Bulcock St.
The mixed-use Sea Caloundra hotel project consists of 77 suites and 119 short-term and permanent residential apartments alongside retail, dining and community spaces.
The site sits at the top of Bulcock St and borders Canberra Terrace and Knox Ave on a 5289sq m site at the eastern gateway to Caloundra's CBD.
The applicant Caloundra Central Pty Ltd has been a property owner in Bulcock Street for 11 years. The company represents investors experienced in property development, both on the Sunshine Coast and overseas.
Spokesman Syd Walker of Place Property said the applicants were committed to the rejuvenation of Bulcock St, while maintaining Caloundra's warm and welcoming community so the town could continue to create fond memories for locals, visitors and holiday makers.
"This is very much in keeping with Sunshine Coast Council's recent planning scheme amendment to facilitate the implementation of the Caloundra Centre master plan's vision to activate a strong mix of commercial, tourist, community, sport, education and living opportunities in Caloundra," Mr Walker said.
"Council have stated that the master plan seeks to capitalise on opportunities to redevelop the city centre, attract new businesses, increase residential and visitor accommodation and improve vehicle and pedestrian access."
Mr Walker said the project was expected to generate $347.4 million during the construction phase and, when completed, an extra $73.7 million would be injected into the local economy annually, including the creation of 171 full-time equivalent (FTE) jobs during construction and 261 FTE jobs when operational.
"This is such a wonderful site to create a landmark project which will strengthen the links between the somewhat disconnected rise of the CBD and Kings Beach with a contemporary, modern coastal design that incorporates environmentally conscious consideration of the local climate and site," he said.
"We've consulted heavily with a number of key stakeholders to determine what is needed for the area and local architecture firm OGE Architects have been engaged to design a project which takes full advantage of the elevated site which boasts panoramic 360-degree views of stunning coastline and the hinterland.
"The amazing natural context of the site allows for vibrant, alfresco, dining opportunities which are the mainstay of landmark coastal destinations across the globe. It will also enhance the active entertainment culture of Caloundra with the nearby Regional Art Gallery, dining strips, markets and regular music festivals.
"It's all designed to be the springboard for an exciting new chapter for Caloundra."
Caloundra Chamber of Commerce president Michael Shadforth said the development was the dawn of a new era which would change the perception not only of Bulcock St, but the entire southern end of the Sunshine Coast.
"We've been eagerly anticipating a project like this in Caloundra for quite some time, we love everything about it including the design, with its seamless link to healthy living, speciality shopping, entertainment and recreation spaces," Mr Shadforth said.
"This not only provides for exceptional public outcomes including major employment opportunities, but will also be a driver for increased visitation to the area with the first fully integrated four-star holiday accommodation in Caloundra in well over a decade."
Visit Sunshine Coast CEO Simon Latchford welcomed the prospect of more high quality tourism accommodation in and around Caloundra.
"Caloundra has exceptional potential for growth from both the leisure and conference/incentive markets, and it is important that the region continually refreshes its accommodation stock with high quality projects if we are to maintain and grow our current record visitor numbers," Mr Latchford said.
"With the completion of extensive renovations to the Caloundra Events Centre this year, the demand for short stay accommodation, particularly during major events, has increased significantly. Sea Caloundra's location, just 600m from the Events Centre, could provide a major boost to growing the high-yielding business events sector," he said.
"The opening of the new runway at Sunshine Coast Airport in late 2020 will have a long-term impact on the region's business and tourism markets, and it makes the development of a range of quality new accommodation even more imperative."

Chinese nationals living in India are being evacuated from India due to the escalating figures of Coronavirus across the country.
On Monday, a flight from Mumbai left for China and four more flights will be leaving in the coming days from Delhi, Chennai, and Kolkata as well.
According to a report, a Chinese officialwith the surname Hu has stated, "Around 3000 Chinese nationals live in India.They are either working or studying and more than half of them have returned toChina before the lockdown in March."
The Chinese Embassy in New Delhi announced on May 25 that five flights run by the China Southern Airlines, China Eastern Airlines, and Air China will bring back students, tourists, and businesspersons.
The Chinese nationals will have to pay for their own tickets and will have to undergo the required tests and follow the quarantine process once they reach their respective cities.

As the popularity of professional long-term care services grows among seniors, so does the need for informal assistance from adult children and other family members. According to the Family Caregiver Alliance, 65.7 million Americans , which is 29 percent of the US adult population, are providing care to someone ill, disabled or aged, and 43.5 million of those caregivers are looking after someone 50 or older.
Further, recent AARP statistics show the relative number of available caregivers is dwindling, however. In 2010, there were more than seven potential caregivers for every person in the high-risk, 80-plus year age range. That ratio is projected to fall to as little as four to one in 2030 and three to one in 2050.
Why the sudden shortage? “More people are living longer, and not as many people are going to be in that care-giving age group,” said Curt Stutzman, CEO of Messiah Lifeways, a non-profit that provides a network of services for senior citizens. Pew Research Center statistics indicate that the 65-and-older population will grow from roughly 13 percent in 2010 to 18 percent by 2030, making it the largest and fastest-growing group of senior citizens in US history. “By 2015, the number of people over age 65 is going to be greater than those 15 and under, and that’s not going to change once it happens,” Stutzman added.
The growing senior population isn’t the only factor affecting the potential shortage, either. “Fewer family members are even able to care for their parents, and there’s a more transient population of caregiver age,” said Stutzman. With middle-aged adults working more to make ends meet – often far away from their elderly parents – many seniors won’t have the access to potential caregivers they once enjoyed.
One possible impact of the looming lack of caregivers is that more even more seniors will seek professional long-term care. However, they may do so later in life in attempts to save money and leave more assets to their heirs. “I think you’re going to see people coming more into professional settings, but they’re probably going to be coming in later than 15 years ago because they want to stay in their homes as long as possible,” said Stutzman. “From a financial perspective, they’re not wanting to spend down their dollars until they have to.”

Easter is not only a celebrated religious holiday, it’s also been known as a time for chocolate, candy, jelly beans and Easter basket treats.
Trust me, I am not against chocolate or candy, but you want to be careful and not overdo it, especially for the kids. With a little creativity, you can come up with some healthy holiday traditions.
Think outside of the box with fun gifts or better yet active treats that don’t involve chocolate or candy for the Easter basket. Here are two creative ideas:
- A kid-friendly gardening basket. Avoid the traditional basket and use a brand new planting pot that includes some gardening tools and seeds to plant flowers, herbs or other produce. Not only is this unique, but it is also fun and can teach your children about gardening. For our tips on getting started with an easy DIY window garden, check out this blog post.
- A cooking pot. Another alternative to an actual basket, could be a cooking pot or pan or a colander with some fun ingredients for a favorite recipe. Not only is this useful, but gets kids interested and involved in the healthy cooking and eating process.
This spring, think outside of the box with fun gifts or better yet active treats that don’t involve chocolate or candy for the Easter basket. Here are a few other ideas:
- Little toys
- Sidewalk chalk
- Jump ropes
- New tennis shoes
- Activity or coloring books
- Crayons, pens or markers
- Arts and crafts
- Lip balm
- Gift cards

In a daring and heart-pounding operation, a team of skilled rescuers successfully saved two children who were left stranded on a chairlift, dangling 900 feet above the ground, in Northern Pakistan. This awe-inspiring rescue mission not only demonstrates the unwavering dedication of the army and local rescue teams but also highlights the need for meticulous safety measures in such recreational facilities.
The incident occurred on August 22, 2023, at 7:45 a.m., when a chairlift carrying a group of seven children and a teacher to school suddenly came to an abrupt halt, leaving them suspended at a daunting height in a mountainous area of Battagram, about 125 miles (200km) north of Islamabad. The breathtaking views of the Northern Pakistan mountains that were once a source of joy for these young kids turned into a perilous predicament.
Responding to the distress call, a team of highly trained SSG Commandos swung into action. Their timely response and strategic planning played a crucial role in the success of the operation. Utilizing state-of-the-art equipment and impeccable skills, the rescuers managed to reach the stranded children with exceptional precision. Two children were carefully secured and guided to safety, showcasing the team's remarkable expertise.
This incident serves as a poignant reminder of the vital importance of stringent safety protocols for local dollies or chairlifts.
The ongoing successful rescue operation wouldn't have been possible without the collaborative efforts of the local community, the rescuers, and various governmental agencies. The heartwarming display of unity and determination showcases the strength that can be harnessed when people come together to address challenging situations.
The source added that cable-crossing experts had been sent by the military to the area. "It is a slow and risky operation. One person needs to tie himself with a rope, and he will go in a small chairlift and rescue them one by one," said Abdul Nasir Khan, a nearby resident.
Another good news is that three of these children, who are still dangling 900 feet above, have passed their 9th grade exams.


Aspen wants to increase court fines
The Aspen Times
The Aspen City Attorney’s Office has a proposal that calls for the maximum fine for municipal-ordinance violations to be increased from $1,000-$2,650.
Municipal-code violations typically cover a host of minor offenses, from public urination and running a noisy club to petty theft and trespassing — and much more. The concept of a higher maximum fine will be introduced to the Aspen City Council at today’s meeting, which begins at 5 p.m. at 130 S. Galena St. A public hearing on the issue likely will be set for July 22.
In a recent memorandum to the council members, assistant city attorney Deborah Quinn wrote that Aspen, because of its home rule charter, has the ability to set its own fines and penalties for violation of local ordinances.
Municipal Court Judge Brooke Peterson has imposed the maximum $1,000 fine only rarely, Quinn wrote. But the judge would like for Aspen to have the ability to impose the same maximum fine for city ordinance violations as statutory municipalities, which can go up to $2,650 thanks to a law passed by the state General Assembly earlier this year.
The requested change, she wrote, “would give the City Attorney’s Office the ability to request such a fine in an appropriate case and would authorize the judge to impose it, if and when an appropriate case might ever arise. The decision on its use would be for the judge to make.”
The introductory ordinance also seeks to raise the maximum fine further, once a year, by adjusting it for inflation.
In other business, the council — which has three new members and a new mayor — will take up the first major development proposal of the current council cycle, which began June 10 and runs for two years.
A public hearing will be held tonight on ASV Aspen Street Owners’ plan to build 14 free-market residential units and 10 affordable-housing units on three parcels of land on South Aspen Street near Deane and Gilbert streets.
The developer — which last year unsuccessfully pitched to the former council a mixed-use project with a hotel and free-market residential components — already has city approval for 31 multifamily units at the location: 14 free-market and 17 affordable-housing units. After it appeared that council members wanted the project to be scaled down, the developer withdrew the application, saying the only way to make a new hotel economically feasible in Aspen would be to build it to a certain size.
The city Planning and Zoning Commission and the Aspen-Pitkin County Housing Authority have recommended approval of the new plans for the land, but the city’s Community Development Department has suggested that the council require more affordable housing on the site.
Roaring Fork District schools in Glenwood Springs, Carbondale and Basalt are heading into the new school year more fully staffed than in recent years.

Tonight* is the finale of Jamie Oliver’s "Food Revolution," and it’s been fascinating to see how challenging it is to change the American food system. I recently chatted with Michel Nischan about the show. He's the chef at Dressing Room, the late Paul Newman’s restaurant in Connecticut, and founder of Wholesome Wave, an organization that helps bring local foods to underserved neighborhoods. He said that while he loves Jamie, he thinks that Jamie's goal of getting schools to make fresh food from scratch every day is unrealistic. “If what he is doing triples the school lunch budget, it’s not sustainable. Schools have even deeper problems than food, and they all require more funds.”
Nischan’s proposed solution lies somewhere in between the current situation—in which schools get highly processed foods from big centralized companies—and Jamie’s ideal. He says that right now, there is a dearth of mid-size food-processing centers, which could turn local ingredients into preservative-free sauces, soups and other foods for school cafeterias. (It’s actually quite like the shortage of slaughterhouses, which has been a setback for the burgeoning local meat industry.) Nischan’s solution would benefit small farmers, who could sell their “field seconds”—the perfectly edible fruits and vegetables that don’t look good enough to take to market. (“You don’t need a pristine heirloom tomato to make a good sauce,” he says.) It would also be great for schools because they could buy better food within their budget that would come to them in an easy-to-prepare format. And of course, it would be a boon for the students, who would eat healthier, most likely tastier food.
*CORRECTION: This Friday, April 23, is the finale of Jamie's show. Can't wait!
Laurent Gras. Body fat 2 (t-w-o) percent.
You wouldn’t expect to find any chefs on a list entitled "The Fittest Guys in the World for 2010"
from Men's Fitness
magazine (although a lot of them would do really well on the corollary list of least-fit guys). The names run towards athletes like the Real Madrid
soccer star Christiano Ronaldo
and Heisman Trophy winner Mark Ingram, Jr.
, and actors like Sam Worthington
. But there is one chef: Laurent Gras
of the super-fantastic Chicago restaurant, L20
. Gras says he balances his 90-hour weeks in the kitchen by cycling at least one 100-miler on his day off. Here’s what else Men’s Fitness
reports: “To maintain his 2-percent body fat (that’s right: T-W-O), Gras heads to the gym five days a week for 30 minutes of jumping rope, an hour of spinning and some lower-body resistance training.” W-O-W. (My only reference for 2 percent involves milk.) For anyone who wants to at least eat like Gras, some of his terrific healthy recipes are at foodandwine.com

Varq's haute take on jalebis.
For our May travel issue, we polled chefs, sommeliers and food writers around the globe to come up with the 100 best new food and drink experiences on the planet. Varq restaurant in New Delhi made the cut, and it ended up being my most revelatory meal in India.
Chef Hemant Oberoi, the Taj hotel group's corporate chef and the visionary behind Varq, and his right-hand man at Varq, executive chef Ankit Sharma, have taken India's street foods and traditional regional dishes and modernized them by applying new techniques and introducing new ingredients, like scallops and foie gras--then serving those dishes on Thomas Keller–designed Limoges china in a very glamorous dining room.
Ganderi kebab, minced chicken marinated with spices, gets deep-fried on a sugarcane stick so that it looks like a corn dog and served in a shot glass with amchur chutney in the bottom. Atta raan, perhaps the most theatrical dish on the menu, is a supertender leg of lamb that has been marinated in mace, cardamom and red chile and baked in a saffron-dough shell. I adored his refined take on the street snacks that I'd been dubiously eating the past week. I'd become addicted to jalebi, a sticky, sugar-high-inducing sweet that looks like a mini funnel cake and has the electric orange color of Cheetos. On the street they are fried in enormous cast-iron pans, fished out of sizzling pools of oil and eaten piping hot. At Varq, they are perfectly shaped spirals of warm, crunchy dough, more yellow than orange (the result of less-sugary syrup), decorated with silver leaf and lined up side by side with a pistachio yogurt for dipping.
When I later met up with Oberoi, I asked him why I can't find that kind of Indian restaurant in New York City. He let me in on a little secret: He's planning a stand-alone Varq in NYC for the near future.

Nadesar Palace, Varanasi.
I became fascinated with Varanasi, one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities on the planet and one of the world’s top pilgrimage sites, after reading Geoff Dwyer’s slightly mad book Jeff in Venice, Death in Varanasi. The city, off the River Ganges, is a chaos of cars, rickshaws, motorbikes, cattle and people bathing on the ghats, while just up the river, a burning body is being sent to rest in the same waters. It was the third stop on the Maharajas Express Celestial India itinerary and after a sunrise boat ride along the ghats, a rickshaw ride through the markets and a shopping binge on the city’s famed Banarasi silk saris, I was desperately ready for an escape from the city’s bedlam.
I found it at the new Nadesar Palace, set on 40 acres of mango orchards and jasmine fields. Originally built by the East India Company to house its officers, then turned into the Maharaja’s palace, it is now a 10-room Taj Hotel with marble bathrooms, four-poster beds draped with Schiaparelli pink netting and original art from the Maharaja’s collections. I spent the afternoon with chef Sanjeev Chopra, who took me on a horse-drawn carriage ride past his organic garden before taking me into the kitchen. Chopra has created a fascinating menu totally focused on local cuisine: He spent months visiting the villages, lanes, elite houses and royal kitchen of Varanasi to learn the ancient royal cooking techniques and find lost recipes. He then asked housewives, royal cooks and maharajs from Dharamshals to visit the Nadesar kitchen to cook and train his team. I ate my way across castes, sampling matar ki puri (green peas stuffed in a deep-fried wheat pancake) from the royal kitchen and the ubiquitous street sweet gulab jamun, cottage cheese dumplings soaked in sugary syrup. It was one of the most satisfying, and definitely the most enlightening, meal of my trip.

NYC Winner Chef Adam Kaye
Cochon 555, the 10-city tour that celebrates farmers and heritage pig breeds, was back in NYC on March 21 for its second annual cooking competition. New York star chefs Marco Canora, Gavin Kaysen, Adam Kaye, Mark Ladner and Corwin Kave competed for the Prince of Pork title, and a chance to cook at the Food & Wine Classic in Aspen. I was lucky enough to be in the judges’ room, where the Brooklyn Brewery Local 2 and K Vintners Syrah were flowing—including a special magnum from K Vintners, one of only 200 that winemaker Charles Smith (F&W’s Winemaker of 2009) bottles by hand each year and usually keeps for himself. Adam Kaye of Blue Hill at Stone Barns was the winner—I could eat his famous face bacon (a crunchy, lacy disk made from pig cheeks) at every meal! But I had a lot of other favorites as well, like Marco Canora’s arancini stuffed with heart and kidney and confited leg with fennel salad, and Mark Ladner’s gigantic lasagna—20 layers of pasta, shoulder, sausage, testa, belly, liver and kidney topped with spicy tomatoes and cracklings.

Chef Bobby Hellen, one of my favorites from last year’s competition and a fellow judge this year, hosted a fantastic after-party at Resto. Not to be outdone by the swine crews, Hellen made Belgian waffles topped with pork whip (whipped cream infused with brining liquid) and cooked three whole lambs for the crowd. Next stop for the tour: Boston on March 28. Next stop for me: Weight Watchers.
This week isn’t just another thrilling week in NCAA March Madness: It’s also World Water Week and marks the return of the fourth annual UNICEF Tap Project
, an initiative that invites customers at thousands of U.S. restaurants to donate $1 or more for the tap water they get for free.
“Participation in the UNICEF Tap Project is an easy way for restaurants to help save the lives of children around the world,” says Tom Colicchio, chef-owner of Craft restaurants
—all of which are participating in the Tap Project. (As my colleague Kate Krader reported
, he’s also a superhero activist in the effort to end childhood hunger.)
According to UNICEF, 900 million people worldwide do not have access to clean water, and waterborne illnesses are the second-highest cause of preventable childhood deaths. For every $1 donation, UNICEF can provide one child access to safe, clean water for 40 days.

Mario Grünfelder created the cocktail list for the bar at Hotel Amano.
For the last few days (and very late nights), I found myself restaurant-and-bar-hopping around Berlin with Mario Grünfelder, the star mixologist of the city’s coolest bar, Tausend. F&W’s European correspondent, Gisela Williams, had been telling me about a number of ambitious projects the Swiss-born spirits genius been working on. He already co-owns Tausend, along with W Imbiss and the superhip Café 103 (which he says will be transforming into something even cooler very soon). Mario is good buddies with the brilliant, semi-maniacal chef Christian Lohse, so we met for lunch at Lohse’s Michelin-starred seafood-centric Fischers Fritz to talk about potential collaborations, which included talk of a 24-hour bar-hopping bus.
Later, Mario invited us to Cantina, the new restaurant in a room behind the bar at Tausend. The former chef of Berlin’s popular Shiro I Shiro is turning out casual Latin-Asian dishes like Peruvian tiradito, tuna tataki wrapped in foie and Momofuku-rivaling pork buns. Over a second round of the stellar pork buns, Mario shared his newest passion, making his own spirits, including an unbelievably smooth wheat-based vodka he’s named Greenfield and Harter 73 (Greenfield being an Americanized version of his last name; 73 referring to his date of birth; and Harter the last name of Tausend co-owner Til Harter). I’m hoping we’ll see bottles stateside soon.
When Tausend gets too crowded late at night, Mario heads to his newest bar project at the chic, affordable new Hotel Amano in the Mitte neighborhood. The low-lit lounge serves late-night snacks and Mario’s cocktails, like the Grischenko (Xoriguer gin, cordial lime juice and Limettensaft bitters) until 4 a.m. The prolific spirits obsessive is now off to Barcelona. Maybe he’ll be opening his first project outside of Germany soon.
Food & Wine’s super-plugged-in European correspondent, Gisela Williams, is based in Berlin and has been taking me to all the hottest new spots in town. Here, a quick rundown:
Wahllokal is in a somewhat awkward location between the business and tourist sections of Berlin’s Mitte neighborhood. Everything about the space is playful, from the tasting menu (divided into Beforehand, Right in the Middle and Thereafter) to the bleacher-esque, stadium-style seating and the wacky basement bathrooms (with showers instead of sinks for washing hands). The food, however, is more straightforward and very well-priced. Highlights were an ever-so-lightly breaded codfish with ox-muzzle salad and Thai asparagus and the watercress risotto with coconut and pomelo honey.
Raffaele Sorrentino, the miracle-working concierge at the Hotel Adlon Kempinski, recently opened two Italian spots side-by-side. The more casual Antica Lasagneria specializes in huge slices of lasagna from a classic meat-and-cheese to a spicy-sausage-and-broccoli. The dining room feels like a wine store with great Italian bottles literally from floor to ceiling. Il Punto is a Berlin favorite that Raffaele reopened in a new location in June serving stellar Italian classics and top Italian wines.
Daniel Achilles is the incredibly young chef everyone is talking about since he was recently awarded a Michelin star for his cooking at the new Reinstoff. Achilles has designed two tasting menus: "Quite Near" is more classic (calf's tail ravioli) while "Far Away" is much more experimental (scallop tartare with brussels sprouts and oyster emulsion). The wine list highlights Spanish and German producers.
At this point we’ve all read about NYC chef Daniel Angerer
, who's been making cheese with his wife’s breast milk.
For some people it might make any kind of cheese seem unappealing, but it’s made me excited to try Daniel Patterson’s recipe for creamy ricotta
—using cow’s milk!
Check out F&W’s awesome cheese guide

Methodology and Design of a Massively Parallel Memristive Stateful IMPLY Logic-Based Reconfigurable Architecture
by YYasunao Katayama; Toshiyuki Yamane; Daiju Nakano; Ryosho Nakane; Gouhei Tanaka
T-NANO, Vol. 15, Issue 5, pp. 762 – 769, September 2016.
Abstract: We present a framework of wave-based neuromorphic computing aiming at brain-like capabilities and efficiencies with nanoscale device integration. We take advantage of the unique nature of elastic nondissipative wave dynamics in both computations and IO communications in between as a means to natively implement and execute neuromorphic computing functions such as weighted sum in a spatiotemporal manner. Lower bound analysis based on a memory model and wave group velocity scaling is provided for conceptual evaluations.

In my opinion, no natural resource is undervalued as much as water and nothing will have a greater immediate impact on your energy levels.
Inadequate hydration contributes to lack of energy and your brain will misinterpret this tiredness as a need to eat more food. Stress, air conditioning and different types of jobs and working environments can all affect our hydrations requirements.
Research estimates that 30-40% of us are mildly to moderately dehydrated and need 1ml fluid per calorie of energy we consume. So, if your average daily intake is 1,600 calories, you need to drink a minimum of 1.6 litres of water. Whilst a balanced diet containing lots of fruit and vegetables can provide a proportion of this fluid, it should be balanced with drinking water itself.
Feeling devoid of energy is one of the biggest challenges we face, especially when we are changing our diet. So often we blame lack of food or sleep for our tiredness and reach for an instant sugar fix and energy boost. STOP! Ask yourself, “have I drunk enough water for the body to create the right environment to it's metabolism to work effectively?”
WHY IS WATER IMPORTANT?
Water is crucial to EVERYTHING that happens in our bodies. It is especially important in weight management because it swells food cells and helps our body intake vital nutrients. Water also makes us feel more satisfied with the food we have eaten. It bulks up food, stretching the stomach wall and sending messages to the brain to tell us we’re full.
The water content in our blood helps the absorbtion and transportation of all the nutrients, vitamins and minerals in the body and flushes all the waste products away.
When you make the change to a healthier way of eating, your body will initially produce more toxins, needing to be flushed away with water. Almost two thirds of our body weight consists of water. Every single cell in our body is bathed in it and every action and chemical reaction requiries its presence and yet this vital nutrient in the one we most often overlook.
If you rarely drink water, and instead quench thirst with tea, coffee and colas you are probably in a constant state of dehydration. Not only does this prevent your body functioning optimally, it can also hamper weight loss efforts as fat can only be broken down in the presence of water.
Adequate water consumption is even more important if you regularly drink caffeine or alcohol as these both have a diuretic effect (the cause your body to LOSE water). A study found that drinking 6 cups of coffee a day increased urinary excretion by 750ml – 3⁄4 of a litre! A good rule of thumb is to consume one glass of water for every cup of caffeine or alcohol – and keep these to a minimum. Still, we’re not food heroes and I love starting my day with a cup of freshly ground coffee, but I also know that I love and need water and when I’m dehydrated it’s not just my energy that’s effected but my mood too. Without it, I’m irritable and short tempered so I stay hydrated not just for my energy – but also for my sanity!

Weruva b.f.f. OMG Gravy! Lamb & Tuna Shazaam! Dinner in Gravy It is a natural lamb and tuna wet cat food. The package includes 12 individual bags of food that are very easy to open. The food is of excellent quality. The kittens liked this food very much and its smell is very rich. I recommend this food because its smell is delicious and the kittens love it. The Weruva brand gifted me this product totally free.
My cats tried this brand’s can food before which they don’t really like it. However, they do like this pouch food a lot. When I open it, they can smell it from the other room and rush all the way to their bowl. It’s very convenient too. Gifted by Weruva for my honest review.
Gifted by Weruva My cat loves it. Pouches are easy to use making no mess when feeding my cat. My cat enjoys it so much he tries to lick the packaging. The packaging is colorful and appealing. The food contents is large- you could get 2 servings per.
My cat went absolutely crazy about this food ! I think we’ve found a new favorite, it has nice consistency and good Ingredients, my cat definitely looks forward to eating his food , no upset stomach or nothing gifted by weruva
With clean ingredients, this flavor is liked by both cats, who are of course picky. One eats mostly dry food because reasons, but she also likes this wet food. I am picky about what I buy in terms of no "grocery store brands" and clean ingredients, and this meets my standards. The pouches are also easy to deal with. The discount code math doesn't always work correctly, so check that when you check out.
My cat generally eats just about anything I give her, bit I'm ordering more of this because she seems to like it a lot.
My old cat never likes to eat the same thing twice, but she's been eating this until I'm almost out and fast! I had to order more today.
sometimes they love it and other times they want nothing to d with it!
I have three cats who can all differ in what they like to eat. This is the one thing all three love. The only flavors they seem to not care for are the ones containing beef. They go nuts when they see me pick the package up. They eat dry food primarily, but I split one package between the three for a treat. I would recommend trying it.
Let me start by saying I love BFF for my cats and my cats love it too. My problem is the pouch. I'm an old lady with old person hands. If you're old you will understand. I find the pouch difficult to open AND difficult to empty. I make a mess every time and expensive food stays stuck in the bottom.

As we reflect on harrowing times and remember those who were lost at sites such as Auschwitz-Birkenau in Poland or the 9/11 Memorial in New York City, memorials can also encourage us to recognise how each place or society has been shaped by these periods of history and events into how they exist today.
Cruising the Caribbean: 6 hours in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico

A top state gaming official said the recent arrest of a Lehigh University graduate student – who allegedly lied to police about being robbed at knifepoint rather than admit he lost $4,000 at a nearby Bethlehem casino – represents the type of addictive behavior afflicting a minority of residents.
That event and other gambling-related crimes do not outweigh the creation of thousands of jobs and billions of dollars in government revenues that are helping Pennsylvania weather the sour economy, said Gregory Fajt, chairman of the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board.
"You're going to have 1 or 2 percent of the public that has addictive behavior," Fajt said in response to questions about the Lehigh student's arrest. "Those folks could have been doing that in Atlantic City, Las Vegas or West Virginia."
Now Pennsylvania has $7 million annually from gaming revenue to help people fight their addictions, Fajt said, which represents another example of how legalized gambling is helping the state.
Fajt spoke to more than 50 people Thursday morning at a South Bethlehem hotel at an event hosted by the Lehigh Valley Economic Development Corp., a nonprofit group that works to attract businesses to the Lehigh Valley and retain existing ones.
Fajt's speech came about a week after the arrest of 23-year-old Lehigh University graduate student Mikael Borneo. Borneo allegedly lied to Bethlehem police when he told them he was robbed at knifepoint of $4,000. He later admitted he lost the money while gambling at Sands casino, and was arrested for filing a false police report, police said. Fajt did not mention Borneo's arrest in his speech, but responded to a reporter's question about the incident afterward.
In his address, Fajt said casinos now employ more than 14,000 people statewide in jobs with medical benefits, pensions and wages that typically range from $35,000 to $45,000 annually. Those jobs have helped people escape unemployment in the aftermath of the Great Recession, he said.
In Bethlehem, the Sands Casino employs nearly 1,300 people, and it expects that number to hit 1,600 this year with the addition of a hotel, a new restaurant and more table games, casino officials said. That makes it one of the Lehigh Valley's largest employers.
"These 14,000 jobs could not have come at a more important time for Pennsylvania," Fajt said, citing the state's high unemployment rate. "I'm not a shill for the casino industry, but it's a positive story and that's why my talk is mostly positive."
In addition to job creation, the average Pennsylvania homeowner has saved $190 a year on property taxes thanks to revenue from the gaming industry, Fajt said.
Fears of crime and addiction were prominent among casino opponents in the years of debate that preceded Pennsylvania's embrace of legalized gambling and the construction of the Sands Casino Resort Bethlehem, which opened in 2009. Proponents argued the industry would bring jobs and help lower taxes, and said opponents' fears were overstated.
Northampton County Executive John Stoffa was among those opposed to a casino in the Lehigh Valley. But Stoffa said Thursday morning his fears about needing additional jail space and increased social services have not materialized.
"I thought it was going to be a nightmare, and I was wrong," said Stoffa, who also spoke at the Thursday meeting.
But Larry Burd, pastor of Calvary Baptist Church in Bethlehem Township who was among casino opponents, said he still thinks the cons of gambling, including people losing money they can't afford to lose, outweigh the pros.
"It's such an enticing presence, that it's going to attract students from all over," Burd said about the Sands casino. "Many of them are going to be sorry that they ever go in there."
Officials in Hellertown, the borough closest to the casino outside of Bethlehem, have said crime has increased in their community since the casino opened. The borough has used gaming revenues earmarked for local governments to buy a police cruiser, hire additional police officers and train officers to detect fraud and narcotics.
Fajt said there were 1,300 arrests on Pennsylvania casino properties in 2010, mostly for theft. That amounts to 12 arrests per month per casino, he said. But he acknowledged the state has no mechanism to track crimes tied to gambling addiction committed off casino properties.
About 2,200 people have asked to be on the state's gambling self-exclusion list, which means their names and photographs are shared with casino operators and they can be arrested for criminal trespass for going to casinos, Fajt said. As of early March, 228 people, or about one-in-10 on the self-exclusion list, have been arrested for going to casinos after volunteering for self-exclusion. And more than 40 people have been arrested multiple times for violating the terms of self-exclusion, according to the gaming control board.
Casino operators can also be penalized for permitting those on the self-exclusion list to gamble. For instance, the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board on Wednesday fined Presque Isle Downs and Casino in Erie County $52,000 for violations that included allowing a patron on the gambling self-exclusion list to play slot machines and collect a jackpot.
An Allentown woman who is on the state's gambling self-exclusion list was arrested and cited for criminal trespass earlier this month after she went to the casino, according to Bethlehem state police.
Fajt said casinos watch out for troubled gamblers because they don't want "bad press."
"A bad addicted gambler story for the casino is bad press," Fajt said. "If someone leaves a casino and jumps off a bridge because they lost their last dollar there, that's a bad story for the casino and they don't want that."

There have been amazing stories down through the years about football coaches staying up all night to prepare for games.
Tatum dared to break existing protocol by rooming with his star quarterback, Jack Scarbath, and going over every possible scenario Scarbath would face the next afternoon.
"Tatum would say over and over, 'Now, if they do this, what will you do?' " said Scarbath last week. "I think I finally fell asleep. I never heard of a coach doing that before Tatum did it and I doubt if anybody's done it since."
Tatum never told any of his players or assistant coaches about what he did and Scarbath never revealed the lengthy strategy session with his coach. "That was Jim Tatum," said Scarbath. "He was always prepared for everything."
Scarbath, who lives near Rising Sun, compared Tatum to Ralph Friedgen, coach of the Maryland team that has just completed a 10-1 regular season. "They're both very thorough in their game preparation, leaving nothing to chance," Scarbath said.
In those days, no polls were taken after the New Year's Day games, so Maryland remained No. 3. The No. 2 team, Michigan State, did not play in a bowl game. So the nation and Volunteers readily recognized that the 10-0 Terps - though it was unofficial - were No. 1.
And although 50 years have gone by, no Maryland team since has had a perfect season. Those 1951 Terps thrashed the rest of the teams in the Southern Conference by an average of 34 points and shut out nonconference opponents Missouri and Louisiana State.
It all started with the team's 6-foot-4, 260-pound coach, a larger-than-life, Babe Ruth type of man who wasn't afraid to take risks.
Tatum was enticed by Maryland president H.C. "Curly" Byrd in 1947 to leave behind a strong Oklahoma program. He was brought in to lift the Terps into the national football limelight, and delivered with a 73-15-4 record over nine years. Besides the perfect season, Tatum took the team to five bowl games and one national championship (1953).
He left in 1956 to become head coach at North Carolina, which was closer to McColl, S.C., where he grew up. Tatum died at 45 after contracting Rocky Mountain spotted fever.
"By the time they figured out what was wrong, it was too late to do anything about it," said his son, Jim Tatum Jr.
Tatum Jr., 54, an attorney in Durham, N.C., recalled his father. "He was the kind of man who could fill a room. He had a presence. When people find out who I am, they still come up to me and hug me."
Tatum's assistant at Maryland was Warren Giese, now a South Carolina state senator. He said Tatum had a "family-like atmosphere" around the team and "if he erred in discipline, it would be on the stricter side."
Giese also said Tatum was a master recruiter and salesman. "He usually looked for kids who came from tough financial backgrounds and strong families," he said.
Tatum once was on the verge of tears as he delivered an emotional talk to the mother of a prospect. The woman was so moved that she turned to her son and said, "Son, you're going to Maryland."
The coach had been accompanied on the recruiting trip by his star defensive tackle, Dick "Little Mo" Modzelewski, who recalled what happened next.
Upon leaving the house, the player said, "Coach, I thought for a minute there you were going to cry."
Tatum responded: "It worked, didn't it?"
The success story in 1951 was based on a team-oriented group of talented players who perfected Tatum's choice of a rather new offense at the time, the split-T. In that formation, the quarterback lines up behind the center to take a direct snap.
The domination by Maryland's split-T in the Sugar Bowl matchup against Tennessee's renowned single wing contributed to the demise of the latter formation. In the single wing, the center snaps to any one of three backs - halfback, fullback or quarterback.
Baltimore's Scarbath quickly mastered the split-T, and he had plenty of weapons at his disposal. Modzelewski's older brother, Ed "Big Mo" Modzelewski, was one of the most feared fullbacks of the time. He overpowered Tennessee for 153 yards and was named Sugar Bowl MVP.
Halfback Ed Fullerton, who now lives in Pittsburgh, could also have been named the MVP as he played a major role in three of the four touchdowns against the Vols.
Fullerton provided a light moment during one of the Terps' huddles in the Sugar Bowl. After Scarbath called his number on an option pass at the Tennessee 6-yard line, Fullerton, who had small hands and had trouble gripping the ball, protested, "I'm not throwing that ... ball!"
But he did throw the ball, right to the late Bob "Shoo-Shoo" Shemonski for a touchdown and a 14-0 lead in the second quarter. Fullerton later bragged in jest: "Who's the greatest passer in Maryland history? Me, of course. I was 1-for-1."
Left guard Bob Ward, Maryland's first All-American, talked about how Shemonski got his nickname. "The guy stood right in front of me in the huddle and never said one word the whole time we played together."
Ward and linebacker Dave Cianelli were both 24 - having seen military service - and they were chosen co-captains.
Ward, a rock of a man at 5-10 and 182 pounds, was often described as the "best player, pound-for-pound," in the country.
Later, as Maryland's head coach in 1967 and 1968, Ward won only twice and resigned. He now lives in Annapolis.
Dick Modzelewski credits Ward's skills on the field in 1951 with helping prepare his teammates. "The games were easy for me after Bob Ward beat ... me in practice," he said.
"Little Mo" got his nickname because he was a year younger than brother Ed. But Dick actually was bigger (6-0, 235) than "Big Mo" (6-0, 210).
The Modzelewskis, who were from West Natrona, Pa., were typical of the players from hard-working, blue-collar families that Tatum loved. The coach often invited their father, Joe Modzelewski, onto the sidelines during games.
The father would pose proudly for pictures with his sons while wearing Ed's No. 39 on the right side of his top-coat lapel and Dick's No. 63 on the left.
When "Big Mo" graduated and got married in his hometown, near Pittsburgh, Tatum attended the ceremony. It left a lasting impression with the family.
During the recruiting process, the Modzelewskis received enticing financial offers from schools, the brothers said, though none of them came from Maryland.
Tennessee recruiters laid $5,000 on the Modzelewskis' kitchen table in an attempt to lure "Big Mo" to the Volunteer State. It didn't work, Ed Modzelewski recalled, even though his mother, Martha, said increduously, "Your father only makes $6,000 for an entire year."
Dick Modzelewski said a South Carolina recruiter drove a new, 1949 convertible to West Natrona. He told "Little Mo" it could be his.
But "Little Mo" chose Maryland, putting him in a position to lead the defensive front against Tennessee in the Sugar Bowl.
Besides "Little Mo," the finely tuned unit consisted of Paul Nestor, Ed Kensler and Bob "Blubber" Morgan. During the regular season, Tatum had employed a five-man defensive line, but changed it to confuse Tennessee in the bowl game. As a result, the Volunteers did not make it into Maryland territory until midway in the second quarter.
The Terps' offensive strategy in the game was to run straight at a very quick Tennessee linebacker, Ted Daffer. Tennessee's triple-threat, All-America halfback Hank Lauricella, said last week the 10-0 Volunteers were surprised by the Terps' tactics.
"By the time we figured out what they were doing, it was too late. We were well into the second half," he said.
It was a Sugar Bowl that would have far-reaching ramifications since the Terps' appearance led to the formation of the Atlantic Coast Conference.
Maryland was suspended by the Southern Conference in 1952 because Byrd had defied the league's ban on playing in bowl games by accepting a bid to the Sugar Bowl. That prompted Maryland to play an independent schedule in 1952 that included five Southeast Conference schools.
Then, in 1953, Tatum and his close friend, South Carolina football coach Rex Enright, joined forces to lead a drive that would result in the birth of a seven-team ACC. The schools were Maryland, South Carolina, North Carolina, Wake Forest, North Carolina State, Duke and Clemson.
Ward was the only first-team All-American on the 1951 Maryland team, being a consensus selection after he was a first-team All-American choice in 1950.
The Modzelewski brothers were second-team All-American picks in 1951. Of course, the voting was done before the Sugar Bowl.
"Little Mo" was a consensus first-team All-American and Outland Trophy winner as the top lineman in the country the next year.
The NFL drafted 12 seniors from the 1951 team, with "Big Mo" being the only first-round pick. Cianelli (sixth round) and Ward (24th round) went to Texas, and Shemonski (30th round) to Chicago.
Three underclassmen on that 1951 team would later be first-round picks. They were quarterbacks Scarbath and Bernie Faloney and fullback Dick Bielski.
"Little Mo" and Chet "The Jet" Hanulak would go on to be second-round selections in 1953 and 1954, respectively.
After Ed Modzelewski was drafted in the first round by the Steelers, he played for the hometown team for two seasons before being traded to Cleveland.
The Browns would later draft Jim Brown, and "Big Mo's" pro career ended after five injury-marred seasons. He then opened a steakhouse in Cleveland and now spends three months a year there and the rest of the time in Arizona.
Dick Modzelewski now lives in New Bern, N.C., where the fishing is good. He played 14 years in the NFL for Washington and the New York Giants.
"Little Mo" played in what has often been called the "Greatest Game Ever" in 1958 when the Colts beat the Giants in sudden-death overtime. He went on to spend eight more seasons in the NFL as an assistant coach.
The 1951 Terps have sometimes been overlooked because they played in the Southern Conference rather than the ACC. When members of the team got together for a 50th anniversary reunion last month on homecoming day in College Park, one of the hot topics was the team's absence from the Byrd Stadium banners honoring the school's bowl teams.
The co-captains, Cianelli and Ward, spoke up at the reunion. Cianelli said he would lead an effort to have the 1951 team included on the wall of fame. Ward said he believes the team deserves a special place at Byrd Stadium.

Maryland 54, Washington & Lee 14
This season opener on the road against defending Southern Conference champion W&L; was a breeze for Maryland as 50 players participated in the humiliation of the Generals. Six of the Terps' seven touchdowns came on long drives directed by four quarterbacks - Jack Scarbath, Bob DeStefano, Bernie Faloney and Lynn Beightol.
Maryland 33, George Washington 6
"Big Mo" - senior fullback Ed Modzelewski - began to assert himself, scoring two touchdowns - one on a 62-yard run - to lead Maryland in its romp over the Colonials in the home opener at Byrd Stadium.
Maryland 43, Georgia 7
It was Chet "The Jet" Hanulak's turn to score two touchdowns as Maryland rolled over the Bulldogs in Athens, Ga. The Terps had now outscored their first three opponents by a 130-27 margin.
Maryland 14, North Carolina 7
Unsung defensive back Joe Petruzzo was the player who made a perfect 10-0 season possible by knocking down a Tar Heels pass in the end zone in the final minutes of the conference game at Byrd Stadium. This was Maryland's first win over North Carolina since 1926. It would be the only close call all season for the Terps.
Maryland 27, Louisiana State 0
This was Scarbath's day to shine in Baton Rouge, La., as he wove through the LSU defense for a 56-yard touchdown run after scoring earlier on a 4-yard run. Bob "Shoo-Shoo" Shemonski scored on an end sweep and Hanulak off a double reverse.
Maryland 35, Missouri 0
The Terps' defense, led by the "M Squad" of Dick Modzelewski, Bill Maletzky and Bob "Blubber" Morgan, wrecked Tigers coach Don Faurot's spread passing attack on Homecoming Day in College Park.
Maryland 40, Navy 21
The city of Baltimore got a chance to witness the exploits of Maryland and Scarbath, who grew up in the Hamilton section of the city. Scarbath completed 16 of 34 passes for 285 yards, with his number of attempts being nearly half of his total of 81 for the season. But the offense turned the ball over 10 times on five fumbles and five interceptions. That allowed Navy to score the most points of any team against UM all season.
Maryland 53, N. C. State 0
Moments before the Terps scored their most resounding victory of the season, school president H.C. "Curly" Byrd announced that Maryland would accept a bid to the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans despite the Southern Conference's opposition to playing in bowls. The Modzelewski brothers were superb again as the team ran its conference record to 4-0 in a game at Byrd Stadium.
Maryland 54, West Virginia 7
Maryland scored on its first four possessions and rushed for 523 yards in the mud at Byrd. The win gave the Terps a 9-0 regular season and a 5-0 conference mark to share the league title with Virginia Military.
Maryland 28, Tennessee 13
The finish line was even sweeter than coach Jim Tatum and his team could have expected. The Terps, ranked No. 3, dominated No. 1-ranked Tennessee, outrushing the Volunteers, 289 yards to 81. The Vols' renowned triple All-America halfback, Hank Lauricella, was thrown for so many losses he gained exactly 1 yard. Maryland intercepted four passes to Tennessee's one. Volunteers coach Bob Neyland said: "We were soundly beaten by a superior team."
Maryland scored three touchdowns in seven minutes of the first half. Halfback Ed Fullerton accounted for three of his team's four scores, scoring on a 1-yard plunge for the first, throwing a 6-yard option pass to Shemonski for the second and completing the scoring with a 46-yard interception return for a fourth-quarter touchdown. Scarbath scored the third Maryland touchdown on a 1-yard run for a 21-0 lead in the second quarter.- Bill Free

For several months now Sam Faiers and Ferne McCann have been rumoured to be fighting after their once incredibly close relationship turned sour and word spread of their feud.
However, the pair appear to have finally put their disagreement to bed on Saturday night as they got together to celebrate Billie Faiers' hen party.
The former The Only Way Is Essex stars, who were previously the best of friends, were both spotted enjoying themselves at the celebration, as The Mummy Diaries star Billie prepared to marry her long-term partner, Greg Shepherd.
Both stars appeared completely unfazed by their former drama, as they could be seen frolicking in white silk pyjamas and sipping on some bubbly as they party with Billie and her pals.
While Ferne and Sam appear to have put their rift to bed, Ferne previously confessed that their similar TV shows about motherhood were to blame for their fall out.
Speaking about how her decision to film First Time Mum had caused their rift, Ferne told now! Magazine: "We fell out because I went ahead and filmed for this show."
First Time Mum took a similar format to Sam and Billie Faires's popular programme, The Mummy Diaries, which aired on the same channel, following her life as she looked after baby Sunday and dealt with being a single mother.
However, a source close to Sam, and Billie had different ideas about the start of the argument, when speaking exclusively to OK! Online.
The insider told us: “Sam and Ferne hadn't seen eye to eye for a long period of time, primarily due to the fact Sam didn't approve of her relationship with Arthur Collins.
“When Ferne committed to staying with Arthur even after he was convicted Sam decided it was time to cut all ties.
“Sam has always been supportive of Ferne and her career and its a shame that Ferne is trying to state otherwise.”
They added: “There is no feud, they're simply not friends.”

Honors College outgrows housing facility
Because of the substantial growth of Grand Valley State University’s Frederik Meijer Honors College this fall, a second living center has been shaped and organized to fit the needs of Honors students. In the past, Niemeyer Living Center was the only Honors housing option, but Hills Living Center has been converted to accommodate overflow.
Jeff Chamberlain, director of the Honors College, said Hills was a good option.
Although students showed some dissonance with the idea at first, Chamberlain said those he has spoken with love it in Hills. “(Students in Hills) love the close community,” he said. “Niemeyer is large, and Hills is much smaller. You can get to know 110 other people, you can’t connect with 450.”
Students living in Hills are still receiving the benefits of Honors living. Janaan Decker, the Honors student services coordinator, said everything available to students in Niemeyer is available for Hills residents, as well.
“We do a number of things to keep them connected,” Chamberlain said, adding that Honors faculty and advisers make frequent trips to the Hills living center.
With the Honors students enjoying the community atmosphere in freshman living, no plans are in the works to construct additional Honors housing, said Andy Beachnau, director of Housing and Health Services at GVSU.
“Hills will remain an option for freshmen Honors students for 2013-14,” Beachnau said, adding that the living center was chosen as housing for overflow Honors students because of the location within the freshman living centers and because of the apartment-style units.
“We haven’t decided where this is going to go,” Chamberlain said, adding that there are still non-Honors residents living in Hills, so there is still room for expansion. “It’s a growing feeling that Hills is a great way for Honors freshman to get started at GVSU.”
The expansion comes after a steady growth in freshman Honors students over the past three years. The Honors College had 310 freshmen in fall 2010, 350 in fall 2011, and 405 in 2012.
Chamberlain said the growth is both internally and externally, but is not due to the actions of the college. “We have about 100 more students this year than last year, but we don’t go out and recruit people, because the college is a relatively limited group,” Chamberlain said. “We don’t make as many invitations.”
Although the growth will allow the college to be more selective, Chamberlain said it will not become more exclusive or raise requirements.
For admittance into the Honors College, applicants must be accepted as GVSU students with a minimum 3.5 GPA and ACT score of 28, standards that will not change anytime soon. Chamberlain said a requirement change would not significantly alter who becomes a Honors student.
“(GPA and ACT score) are not the only things we look at (when admitting students into the program), there are other factors that come into play,” he said, adding that a previously written essay, self-assessment and prompted essay are all other factors that determine admission. “The statistics stuff isn’t helpful to change because we try and look at all the bits and pieces.”
When the admissions process does begin, Chamberlain said two traits are examined in Honors candidates. “We look for students with motivation and a high level of capability,” Chamberlain said, adding that these traits “aren’t always shown on a test.”
Although the bar will not be raised to make the college more exclusive, Chamberlain said the gap between Honors students and non-Honors students is still distinguishable, as demonstrated by an annual award distribution.
“Every year the Phi Kappa Phi honors society gives out the freshman awards to freshman who receive a 4.0 their first semester,” Chamberlain said. “(On the list of students eligible), one-fifth are Honors students, over 20 percent.”
The director said the yearly recognition might give some insight into how the two groups compare.
“Honors is being over represented, (which means) Honors students are doing better overall,” he said. “You don’t have to be an Honors student to be doing well, but they tend to.”

We found the 20 metro areas in the West with the most net outmigration between 2010 and 2018. There's been lots of flight from California.
30 countries where much (or most!) of the population lives in one city, like Israel, Japan, and Greece
Using population estimates from the UN, we compared countries' populations to those of their largest cities.
Texas' largest cities were at the top of the list, as well as Midland, a major hub of the fracking boom.
Although the South is the fastest growing of the four main US regions, population growth is not evenly spread out.
Many countries face serious demographic headwinds, with low birth and immigration rates leading to aging and shrinking populations.
Between 2010 and 2018, lots of people fled the Northeast to settle in the South. These are the cities that saw the most dramatic population shifts.
Using US Census data, we found metro areas with the most negative net migration between 2010 and 2018. Lots of people are leaving Flint, Michigan.
America is much different from what it was in 2001. Here are some of the main ways the country's population and systems have changed.
According to a recent data release from the US Census Bureau, counties in the South and West tended to have more people move in than move out.
Birth rates are at an all-time low in the US, and experts fear it could turn the country into a ‘demographic time bomb’
With fewer births, there may not be enough young people to economically support older generations who continue to live longer and longer.

What is a diversified portfolio
Diversification - auxmoney financial lexicon
The criteria for risk diversification
The diversification effect can only come into play if the portfolio has a certain structure. Arbitrary diversification can negatively affect the calculability of the portfolio under certain circumstances. As part of diversification strategies, risks are usually distributed among various risk carriers that hardly correlate with one another. The dependency of two assets is usually indicated with the so-called correlation coefficient. A correlation coefficient of 1 means that the assets are basically performing identically. In contrast, a correlation coefficient of -1 indicates that there is an opposite relationship. If the correlation coefficient is 0, no linear relationship is assumed.
In order to be able to better structure the dependency on individual assets in a portfolio, it is possible to set up so-called diversification criteria. Typical diversification criteria include, for example, countries, regions, cities and industries. Accordingly, as part of a diversification strategy, investments are made, for example, in stocks that come from different countries or regions and can be assigned to different industries. Direct or indirect real estate investments are often dealt with in a similar manner. Here, too, the assets can be allocated to properties in various countries, regions or cities. There is also the option of investing in both residential and commercial real estate at the same time in order to achieve diversification on several levels.
