A WARRNAMBOOL mother of three children has been jailed for six months for trafficking meth amphetamines and cannabis about four months after she committed earlier trafficking offences.
Magistrate Peter Mellas told Alana Maree Shand, 30, of Wanstead Street, he was imposing the jail term on her because her second round of offending was aggravated offending and warranted a prison term.
Police prosecutor Sergeant Sandra Skilton said police raided Shand’s home on July 28 and found weight scales under a mattress and a mobile phone.
Messages on the phone revealed evidence of trafficking in meth amphetamine and cannabis.
Shand had admitted buying seven grams of amphetamines and said she had bought them for a friend, Sergeant Skilton said.
Belinda Northey, for Shand, said her client had been using drugs to deal with issues in her life including a relationship breakdown.
She said Shand now had a mental health care plan and her children depended on her.
In sentencing Shand, Mr Mellas said she had been placed on a corrections order after pleading guilty to serious offences following a search warrant in March, this year.
Mr Mellas said Shand had again offended, trafficking in amphetamines and cannabis.
The quantities had been small but were serious examples of offending while on bail, he said.
A Corrections Victoria officer told the court that Shand had been warned on August 10 she was coming back to court but two weeks later had breached her corrections order. The officer said no further corrections order was appropriate.
Mr Mellas said it was difficult to know at this stage whether Shand would complete any further corrections order. He remanded Shand until December 19 for a report by Corrections Victoria.
Shand was also convicted of breaching the curfew conditions of her bail. The court was told police had apprehended Shand at 3.08am in Botanic Road on August 25 and she had given a false name and address.
Mr Mellas sentenced Shand to two weeks jail for the bail breach, to be served concurrently with the other jail terms.
He also ordered she complete 52 hours of community work after she was released from jail for a number of other offences.

Much like similar to Barbarian attack/mechanized tanking, melee isn't feasible when the game gets difficult. In order to D2R Items achieve the Assassin function, test the Trapper build and make her the caster, which gives the ability to play the game without assistance. With three different damage types used in the build, there is no way to make a monster immune enough.
Amazon.The Amazon is a versatile class, with an impressive level of skill the use of weapons with range. It is a favorite among Diablo 2 newbies and veterans alike, because she's very easy to get used to, but is a challenge to master. Other than bows and crossbows however, the Amazon can be extremely effective as a build with javelins, as well.
No class in the game requires more thought when completing the building. Some of her abilities have lower returns. Therefore, new players could have a hard choosing when to take off a skill before getting it to its maximum. The more experienced gamers will appreciate the fact that Amazon has a good handle on everything proficiently.
Druid.Along alongside the Assassin The Druid has been added to Diablo 2 with the Lord of Destruction expansion. Many of the players refer to him as the most well-rounded class within the Diablo 2 game. Druids are extremely adaptable. They have the conjuring abilities typically associated with necromancers. They also have fighting spells that are comparable to those of Sorceress They are also quite skilled when it involves using swords and maces. They also have the unique ability to transform into a werewolf or werebear.
One problem with the Druid is that they don't accomplish anything different than other class. Paladins are better at absorbing damage while Sorceresses inflict more damage and Barbarians have greater mobility. However, the Wind Druid build is able to Buy D2R Items Xbox deal physical harm on top of magic, making it the sole viable physical spellcaster, which is at least something this class can do better over the rest.

Although your sister appears to be sympathetic, you know she’ll never let you live this down. After slipping on a puddle minutes before her wedding ceremony, you and three other bridesmaids were anxiously waiting for an ambulance to take you to the hospital. When you slipped, you foolishly tried to stop yourself by bracing your hands to your sides. Instead of catching yourself, however, you managed to mangle your wrists until you heard a snap. Needless to say, your wrists gave way and you landed with a painful thud onto your coccyx. The other bridesmaids didn’t fare too well either—they’re all sitting in a heap rubbing their ankles in pain.
As you wait for the ambulance to arrive, you attempt to assess the damage. Although you heard a snap and both of your wrists are turning purple, you can still move your hands slightly (painfully, but slightly). Are they broken, or just sprained? Your three other injured comrades complain of varying symptoms, two claiming their ankles are broken, while the other thinks hers is just sprained. How can we tell? What are the signs of a broken bone compared to a sprain?
Sprains, Strains, and Breaks, Oh My! Identifying Your Injury
Slip and fall accidents are notorious for causing painful muscle sprains, strains and the occasional broken bone. Although completely different injuries, they are all extremely painful. A sprain is a stretched or torn ligament between two bones; a strain is a twisted, pulled or torn muscle or tendon, and a break is when a bone cracks, fractures or snaps. Unfortunately, sprains, strains and breaks can all produce the same amount of agonizing pain, despite their anatomical differences, so it’s important to always seek medical attention following a fall injury.
However, even though the pain may be the same, each ailment produces varying symptoms to help you identify the severity of your injury. These signs include:
- Sprain: when a muscle becomes sprained (usually in joints such as the ankle, wrist, or knee) sensitivity will set in quickly. The area will become sore, swollen, possibly bruised and painful to rotate or move. If mobility is decreased but not impossible, a sprain is likely. However, you should still seek medical attention to be sure.
- Strain: a strain produces symptoms similar to a sprain (soreness, swelling, and bruising), but can also cause redness, pain when area is at rest, and weakness or immobility of the affected muscle/tendon.
- Break: although a break may also be painful, swollen and red, it will produce more visual symptoms than a sprain or strain. A broken bone can generally be seen under the skin as a large bump or can even penetrate through the skin. When a bone is broken you’ll be unable to move it and feel excruciating pain when pressure is applied to the area. It is crucial that you have a professional set the bone and treat any cuts or protrusions in order to make sure the bone properly heals.
Options After the Diagnosis
Once your injuries have been properly diagnosed and treated, you have a duty to yourself to explore your accident claim options. If your fall was caused by someone’s actions other than your own, you could be entitled to compensation. Call us today to learn about your legal options and see what we can do to get the treatment settlement you deserve. We owe it to you and you owe it to yourself to get justice for your injury.

A typology of 129 milk samples collected by two cooperatives to make Beaufort cheese, showed various associations in their milk characteristics (fat content, protein content, somatic cell count, bacteria count, breakdown of monthly milk bulk, annual milk bulk). Production practices were studied in 34 dairy farms. Feeding factors and calving periods were found to have an influence on the milk’s chemical composition. The bacteria counts in milk depended on the sanitation of the milking equipment. Farming practices, premilking udder preparation and cubicle mats were associated with somatic cell count. The variability of the different milk characteristics and the relations amongst them underlines the diversity in both farming practices and the control systems currently in place. Relationships between milk types and farming systems demonstrates the utility of proposing quality guidelines that are adapted to the diversity of dairy farming.

If you want something that focusses on the main themes and introduces you to the main Existentialist writers, then this is the book for you. I knew a little bit about the topic before I started but you certainly wouldn't need to know anything to understand this book. The examples used to explain the arguments, from film and fiction, made it very clear. My only complaint was that this book was not long enough, as I was enjoying it so much, I didn't want it to end!
on 29 April 2010
This book certainly gave me a good understanding of the topic. It was shaky around chapter 2 when a lot of abstract and somewhat inevitable terminologies were discussed. I can't say I fully grasped all of them absolutely, but this is one of those books where you don't need to - the author does not rely heavily on terminology later on to convey or illustrate his points (bar the odd case or two).
I really gained a lot of different ways to look at life and Existentialism is one of the more applicable and relevant schools of philosophy for the masses. I think Warternberg deserves a big thumbs up for whetting my appetite to pursue some of the original texts by Existential philosophers, and I can do so with more confidence.
Finally, I would like to say that this would be a good intro for philosophy students if they are studying the subject.
on 29 October 2008
Hurrah!!I've been looking for this book for years! It's written for anyone - not just philosophy students - in a clear, direct and personal style. Mr Wartenberg doesn't assume you know about Cartesian or any other principles, so you don't have to read 100 other books to understand what he's saying if you don't want to (but gives you direction if you do). He uses some literary references like Hamlet, but explains the relevence in the text, so no need to read the play (again). There are little potted biographies of key people, as and when they pop up.
Altogether, a really clear and accessible introduction to a complex subject. Excellent.
on 8 April 2014
I have long been a devotee of the OUP's Short Introduction series and when I wanted to buy an introduction to existentialism I searched there first, but was warned off by the reviews. Instead, by the same process, I ordered this title and I am really glad that I did. Wartenberg gives us a brilliant introduction to the subject. I had very little background knowledge of philosophy and even less knowledge of existentialism, but I was hungry to learn. Starting from first principles the author introduces us to the main issues of identity, individuality and self-consciousness. He deals with awareness of, and interaction with, others and the issues generated by free choice, especially in important moral issues such as racism. He explains the technical words that are unavoidable and I personally think the book is much enhanced by the short biographies and summaries printed in text boxes throughout the book. They deal with individual philosophers and their theories, so in a few words we can gain an insight into Kant say, or Sartre. Wartenberg makes no bones about being a supporter of the existentialist world-view. He is fully committed to it, but not in a way that obscures the truth or muddies the discussion; itself an accomplishment.
In short if you, like me, want to begin an exploration of this subject, one which has undoubtedly moulded our world, then this really is an excellent place to start.
on 6 March 2012
Ever wondered about what Existentialism is? Of course you have otherwise you wouldn't have found/searched for this book; that or you've been tempted by the "Customers also bought" marketing tool...anyway the review:
A very accessible introduction to the philosophy of Existentialism; examples from popular culture are used throughout to reinforce what can be difficult concepts (especially when reading Sartre's/Heidegger's/or any of the numerous other original texts). If you don't understand the basic concepts as introduced in this book then give up your dream of being an existenialist scholar it really is that simple.
Great book, give it a try and if you like the concepts of existenialism (alongside other philosophical ideas because no one person/group/movement [although as you'll become aware very few people actually liked being grouped together as existentialists] could ever be spot-on with everything) then you'll find numerous other books on the subject to move on to.
Enjoy! Or not. Your choice but you'll have to live with it.
on 13 October 2012
Acccessible, cohesive, condensed yet thorough. Only recieved this product yesterday and I am already 2/3 of the way through it, very succinct explanations of an otherwise reasonably complicated topic. The best introduction out there, and i've read three others.

Indian Atrocities In Kashmir Condemned Worldwide
Indian Atrocities In Kashmir Condemned Worldwide: Violence across India-held Kashmir (IHK) left at least 14 people dead on Sunday, police and military officials said. The victims included six who were killed when an explosion occurred among a crowd protesting against Indian occupation. Thousands of demonstrators, some hurling stones, marched on a village in southern Kulgam town where Indian forces were battling an unknown number of armed Kashmiris.
More than 10 young people were killed during a cordon and search operation jointly launched by Indian Army’s 9 Rashtriya Rifle, Central Reserve Police Force and Special Operation Group in the district. The troops also destroyed a house during the operation.
Meanwhile, All Parties Hurriyat Conference chairman Mirwaiz Umer Farooq condemning the killing of the youth said in a twitter statement: “To strongly condemn &protest the mayhem unleashed in Kulgam by the ruthless Indian state in which so far 5 civilians & 3 armed youth killed besides injuries to tens of scores of injured,JRL calls for complete #Shutdown tomorrow,JRL will hold a #ProtestSitin on Tuesday at LaLchowk.”
Pakistan has repeatedly called for resolving the Kashmir dispute in accordance with the aspirations of the Kashmiri people.
Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan on Monday strongly condemned the recent killing of Kashmiris at the hands of Indian forces in occupied Kashmir. In a tweet, PM Khan decried the “new cycle of killings of innocent Kashmiris” and repeated his stance that the solution to the region’s dispute laid in dialogue.
The Independent Permanent Human Rights Commission (IPHRC) of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) strongly condemned the indiscriminate and arbitrary killing of 17 Kashmiris by the Indian occupation forces in southern part of Indian Occupied Kashmir (IoK) recently.
Hundreds of Canadians from all walks of life gathered outside the Indian Consulate in Toronto denouncing Indian army crimes against innocent Kashmiris. Organized by the Friends of Kashmir, Canada, the rally attracted Canadians of different backgrounds including many of Kashmiri and Pakistani origins but also a large number of Sikhs and other Canadians.
Indian Army In Kashmir
India has some 500,000 troops deployed in IHK. Popular uprising has been growing since 2016 when a charismatic young Kashmir fighter was shot dead by Indian occupation forces. More than 100 peaceful Kashmiris died in subsequent weeks of protest.
This year at least 186 armed Kashmiris, 80 anti-Indian protesters and 75 Indian forces personnel have died in clashes across IHK.
People are protesting by by not only raising slogans against Indian crimes but speakers also drew attention to the decades-long oppression of Kashmiris by the brutal Indian army. It was repeatedly emphasized that Kashmir is not part of India and has never been. There are several UN Security Council resolutions calling for a referendum in Kashmir. When the Indian army first occupied the state in October 1947, Indian rulers promised to respect the wishes of the people but as they tightened their grip on Kashmir, they backed out of this pledge given not only to the people of Kashmir but also the entire world.
After years of peaceful protest, more and more Kashmiris are once again picking up arms as the Indian authorities have refused to consider their demand for the right to self-determination.

Today’s Thursday Day at the Range was, shall we say, both interesting and a bit humbling. After posting the “Five Best” 1911 targets below, this week’s targets weren’t nearly so impressive. That’s the humbling part. The interesting part is the contrast between this Ruger BSR9 (“B” for black slide) and the SR9 from a few weeks ago.
The recent SR9 shoot was somewhat disconcerting because the front sight decided to attempt a walkabout. Needless to say, the accuracy results were somewhat compromised by a sight attempting to escape its dovetail. While contemplating a remedy for that pistol, which has a stainless bare finish slide, I decided to break out another SR9, this one with a black slide. That’s the BSR9 shown here.
I had just finished a five-target series with a double-action-only auto pistol. While this DAO pistol’s trigger was actually quite smooth, the pull was long and heavy. Switching up to this BSR9, its relatively light and short trigger was a bit disconcerting, presenting a somewhat challenging adjustment. What’s really interesting, though, is the smoothness of the BSR9’s trigger compared to the early-production SR9* from that earlier Thursday Day at the Range. This contrast deserves further investigation; I have four SR9 variants available for testing; perhaps in the future, I’ll be able to do a “which is best?” comparison among them.
For now, I believe that this is one pistol whose trigger’s characteristics deserve further work to master the trigger. The SR9s feel light and narrow, more like a Model 1911 than one might expect. Perhaps that’s one reason I like them so and am willing to put in the effort to do better with this one.
*The usual protocol applies, 7 yards, unsupported standing Weaver, 115 grain FMJ, best of 5, 5-shot groups.
**Those who read the post on the SR9 may remember that it was a very early production example that was recalled by the factory for a fire control changeover.
***One of the other targets has a much tighter group, but with an embarrassing flyer.

Have An Emergency? We Can Extract A Tooth To Relieve Pain
+ Learn Why You Should See An Oral Surgery Dentist Periodically
Once your dentist refers you to an oral surgeon, you may start experiencing fear and anxiety. It’s crucial to remember not to panic if you’re referred to an oral surgeon as this doesn’t necessarily mean something serious is amiss. A referral to an oral surgeon is about one specialist, your dentist, acknowledging that there’s another specialist, the surgeon, who might be more equipped to handle your problem. Consider these strategies to assist you decide about getting oral surgery.
They aid with checking for just about any existing infection you could possibly have, as well. Infections are typically brought on by tooth decay and can lead to permanent damage. If the infections are left untreated, they can spread to adjacent teeth but the very best solution for such an issue is by extracting the teeth. A lot of people undergo the same procedure, which happens to be a type of oral surgery and is the most efficient way to treat an infection completely.
The term oral surgery is related to the treatment of a wide variety of mouth issues, including many different types of defects or damage. Problems in the hard and the soft tissue of the face, are definitely the professional focus of an oral surgeon, who probably began his or her career as a dentist. Oral surgery can be particularly helpful in addressing cosmetic and restorative problems in the jaw and mouth. Tooth surgery is under the umbrella of oral surgery, a practice done by many people throughout the world.
Infection is a significant problem that’s often overlooked. Tooth decay causes infection, which can lead to permanent damage. A decayed tooth can spread an infection to all the otherwise healthy teeth around it, and for this reason, extraction of the most decayed tooth is often the best solution. Tooth extraction is certainly an extremely common form of oral surgery, and is possibly the best option when faced with oral infection.
Good health is a must when you really want to undergo oral surgery. It is a must you undergo anesthesia before the oral surgery. Your surgeon will offer you routines that you will follow towards your recovery journey. Anyone who is thinking about having dental surgery should also consider which surgeon will probably be the best choice for them.
It’s very important to choose the very best dentist you can if you ever need oral surgery.

I’ll never be exactly sure why, and I’m not even sure my own mother knows why, but one year, my mother took me to see The Nutcracker. I was maybe 8 at the time, and we went the next two years, because – and I don’t think my mother really counted on it happening – I became somewhat engrossed by the production. I was a strange kid, but ballet was not, for all intents and purposes, “my thing”, at least not at that age. I’m 23 now, and despite having seen it twice more since my childhood, I can’t seem to shake it. I went as far as proposing to my wife during the second act, as the Sugar Plum Fairy was being hoisted above the Cavalier, further cementing it as a true part of my bloodline.
Five years later, we returned to the Keller to take in opening night of the 2013 run of the old classic, and I found, to my surprise, that the Oregon Ballet Theater seemed intent on breathing new life into things. Chalk it up to the dreamlike quality of everything, but I spent a lot of my time unable to shake the feeling that, despite my familiarity, I was watching something completely different. The set seemed much more vibrant, the set dressing proving to be incredibly dazzling, no matter where in the crowd you might have been. Every single performer on stage was on top of their game at all times, giving the feeling that you weren’t just watching people, you were watching a well-oiled machine.
All of the old magic is still there, and then some: the charm of the party scene in Act I isn’t just the children playing, but the fact that, no matter where you lay your eyes, you’ll find other people doing something worth watching. It can prove dizzying, trying to take everything in there – and, really, throughout the entire production – but it’s well worth it. It’s a feeling that has lingered in the background for years now, but the words for it have only finely come to the fore: watching a production of The Nutcracker performed by people who truly feel it in their bones is, once you’re wrapped up in the world, simply hypnotic.
I’ll spare you a long, drawn-out breakdown of just how good everyone was this year, but I’ll condense it down to two observations:
- The dancers who play the Cavalier and the Sugar Plum Fairy (Xuan Cheng and Brian Simcoe, respectively) have the most captivating chemistry I’ve seen on a stage in a great while, which will never cease to be amazing, considering the fact that the two never speak to each other.
- The man who plays the ever-entertaining Drosselmeyer, Kevin Poe, was downright impossible to look away from. The man’s attention to physical comedy is truly a thing to behold.
Really, my only complaint about the evening I can think of has very little to do with the performance itself, and more to do with the extremely rude man who took it upon himself to mock one of the youngest dancers to his companion, before promptly falling asleep and snoring throughout the entire second act. I’d launch into a tirade about that kind of behavior, but it’s not quite Festivus just yet.
Terrible theatergoer aside, very little could be done to improve the night. The crowd reacted to everything with rapt admiration, and you could tell that the love in the room fed the performance, which is always something truly wonderful to witness.
Anyone who knows me knows that I’ve always been a bit of a grump around the holiday season. It feels like a mark of quality that, despite that grumpiness, a great performance of The Nutcracker can remind me of just how magical the season can be.

Although the pastoral northeast (Garissa, Wajir, Mandera and parts of Tana River counties) and pastoral north-west (Mainly Turkana, West Pokot and Marsabit) are generally classified as Stressed under the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC), there are about 700,000 people here in the Crisis phase of food insecurity. After two to three poor seasons, these households have not fully recovered. Most of them lost productive assets during last year’s drought and face considerable food gaps.
The Government of Malawi, through the Department of Disaster Management Affairs (DoDMA), will from the month of September 2018, undertake a once-off maize distribution exercise targeting acute food-insecure households in 26 districts of the country, pending the final Malawi Vulnerability Assessment Committee (MVAC) report and development of the 2018/2019 Food Insecurity Response Plan.

After decades of progress, hunger - both acute and chronic - is on the rise again. In 2017, a massive humanitarian effort helped to contain famine in South Sudan and avert famine in northeastern Nigeria, Somalia and Yemen. Despite this, the number of people on the brink of severe hunger continues to rise.
Floods have washed away roads in El Gedaref state in south-east Sudan. The accumulated rainwater has also isolated a number of villages in southern El Gedaref.
On Thursday morning, the floods washed away El Hawata-El Mafaza main road which connects El Hawata with El Gedaref town.
A number of residents from El Hawata told Radio Dabanga that the town “is completely isolated from the rest of the state”. They pointed out that passenger and cargo vehicles have been unable to enter or leave El Hawata.

Many moons ago, Sierra On-Line chose the iconic Half Dome of Yosemite National Park as their symbol. This huge granite rock face dominates Yosemite Valley, as Sierra once dominated the Adventure Game market.
For our first game, Hero’s Quest: So You Want to be a Hero (or Quest for Glory, whichever version you prefer), we showed off Half Dome in splendid tones of magenta, cyan, and purple. Then from behind the mighty mountain rises a huge dragon who breathes fire and melts your computer monitor, or something.
It only seemed fitting that we should have a tribute to those halcyon days of yore and the original game that made Hero-U possible. After all, if you people hadn’t enjoyed the first game of the series, we wouldn’t be here. That’s why we had JP Selwood create his version of Half Dome and the dragon – to remind you how much fun a game can be. Of course, we hope you will find Hero-U every bit as much fun as those games with Half Dome on the cover and a dragon inside.
Today, we share with you the painting of the Dragon and Half Dome. Please share our Kickstarter Project and these screensavers with everyone you know. Social Media is a wonderful thing – it lets us reach out and find people who don’t know Hero-U.

The Reds will go in-house to replace Dusty Baker, as Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports that pitching coach Bryan Price is expected to be named as manager tomorrow. FOX Sports’ Ken Rosenthal and John Fay of the Cincinnati Enquirer are hearing the same.
While there were rumblings about Hall of Famer Barry Larkin, former Nationals manager Jim Riggleman, and Cubs third base coach David Bell being candidates for the job, Price was always considered the favorite. Regarded as one of the best pitching coaches in the game, he has been with the Reds since 2010 and previously held the same position with the Mariners (2000-2005) and Diamondbacks (2006-2009). Rosenthal reports that Price was also a candidate for the Mariners’ managerial vacancy.
The Reds could be in for big changes this winter with Shin-Soo Choo and Bronson Arroyo hitting free agency and Brandon Phillips reportedly on the trading block, but Price will inherit a very talented team for his first managerial gig.

Over the years I have needed to choose band members for many different gigs. The first band I was in, I joined after it had been formed for a while. I was 20 years old and I had been playing guitar for about two years. It was a southern rock/classic rock band and I hadn’t really played much of that then. What I learned was that I cannot expect everyone to learn at the same pace. I also learned that there is a great difference in ability between those who learn an instrument just for fun, and those who are interested in becoming professional musicians. That difference is time.
With this group, we had to hire new drummers more than any other member. As a matter of fact, the vocalist, bassist and I left the original group that we were in together and found another guitarist and drummer to join us. The guitarist stayed for the life of the band, so the drummer saga starts here.
You know how during a song the drummer will roll across a number of drums then come back in at the beginning of a section? Well, the first drummer would always end up backward: kick, snare, kick, snare, roll, snare, kick, snare… That used to drive us nuts.
The second drummer was one that I had chosen. Oops. I chose him because I thought that he played interesting things when we auditioned him. One note about auditioning other players; give them a week or two to learn some of the songs your group does. Then, setup a rehearsal and see how it goes. What you are looking for is: did this person learn the tunes, or are they just following along poorly? Did they show up in time to setup all of their stuff to be ready at hit time? Are they sober? Did they bring their girlfriend or boyfriend? Did they bring all their friends? Did you have to go pick them up? Do you have to take them home and stop at four different places on the way?
I learned all of the above warning signs from the same person. Live and learn.
The third drummer I met at a ‘Come be a millionaire selling our air purifier (vacuum cleaner) to people who cannot afford it’ pep rally. He is a great guy named John who moved away. I arranged a meeting with John, and I took our bass player to hear him play. Well, the first scary moment was when we asked him to play he picks up two trimmed tree branches. He picked up two trimmed tree branches!
Let me tell you, drumsticks, tree branches, chopsticks, whatever; John showed us what we were missing in our group: time, tempo and feel! Wow! You’re Hired!
I miss John.
Right now I am getting a group together and I am remembering some of the nonsense that I have dealt with over the years and nothing changes but the faces. Here is my solution: I will have two sets of each instrument I need played. Yes, two bassists, two drummers and eventually two sax players. Maybe I will use some people to play trumpet. I like trumpet too. I even thought of finding a sub’ for myself.
This should solve the greatest problem of all: Scheduling. Scheduling rehearsals and gigs grows exponentially more difficult relative to the number of musicians in a group. I figure if I have two of everyone, someone can make it to something. Plus, it will give me a leg up if I need to fire someone. I will take wagers on who is going first.
I will keep you all up do date on our progress and gig schedule.
P.S. I am sorry I did not complete an article for last week. I do have a subject for another article because of that missed week though: Success and Failure.


TBILISI, DFWatch–A Georgian citizen has voluntarily handed over a large collection of military type weapons to the police department in Tbilisi.

After the appointment of a marine superintendent to Sable Island in 1801, horses were routinely shipped off the island and sold at auction in Halifax, as well as in New England and Newfoundland. Valued for their strength and endurance, these small animals were a familiar sight on the streets of Halifax well into the twentieth century.

If you’re a male in search of a wife, given that difficult to find someone who shares your values. Yet , it’s possible to get the ideal girl to join your household. In this article, https://mailbride.net/latin/mexican-brides/ I’ll talk about three validated strategies that will help find a wife. A distributed history is another great way to locate a wife. Should you be single and wish to date someone in your own community, consider reconnecting with ancient friends, neighbours, and co-office workers. If you’re energetic in community institutions, you can even search for people you have known for years and get in touch with them for any meeting.
An additional method of locating a wife is by using online dating websites. There are plenty of reputable online dating websites, such as EasternHoneys, BravoDate, and La-Date. EasternHoneys is an excellent option, with thousands of Oriental girls and a cellular variety for easy connection. You’ll be able to chat, email, and exchange email with prospective wives. Websites like these also have a huge database of Asian ladies.
If you’re buying a wife by another country, Colombia can be an underrated destination. Colombian women talk about many characteristics of the ideally suited wife: loyalty, support, and professional domestic skills. The price of living for the family of several is usually $1, 670 per month, along with the cost of hire and foodstuff rising annually. Mexican females are highly prepared, clean, and respectful. The price tag on living for any family of four is just $1, 670 per month, and the local climate is often ninety diplomas Fahrenheit.
The very best country to identify a wife is a one in which the ladies choose your heart beat faster. Tina, Mexico, and Venezuela may be your best gambling bets when it comes to finding a wife. The way these women look at family life will likewise have a great deal to do with where you want to find a wife. Women from Eastern European countries and Slavic cultures are usually more faithful than Traditional western ladies, when their Far eastern counterparts are more likely to view connections as a long term affair.
The Dominican Republic is another wonderful country to get a wife. Girls in this nation happen to be sweet and affectionate, and are perfect for a household life. Females from Dominican Republic are also devoted and respectful, which make them the best region to find a wife. These females are extremely well intentioned of their companions, and their looks and personalities are also really worth a look. These kinds of women also are willing to experience you for some time.
The best countries to find a wife by -mail order happen to be in East Europe. Asian European all mail order brides tend to become sexy and feminine. Mailbox order brides to be from Belgium are mostly Catholic, and have good family valuations. Women coming from these countries are open minded and are wonderful to flirt with. They may have good education, and they are desperate to become a better half and mom. You will find ladies from Far eastern Europe in Eastern The european union, and Latin America as well.

2018 Pol Roger Champagne Brut Sir Winston Churchill
2018 Pol Roger Champagne Brut Sir Winston Churchill Stewed yellow plums, hints of pomegranate, tropical ambrosia salad n orange peel marmalade surround this 2018. Released after extra triage only best years Secret cuvee follows imprint PN n Chard on yeast extended Steady tiny creamy bubbles complex n elegant tones of brioche Roma apple maple cream almond paste Fruity Piercing acidity light diatom chalky mineral n broad silky texture.
Champagne Pol Roger
Pol Roger made his first sale of wine in January 1849. Family circumstances forced him to set up a business: his father, a notary, had contracted an incurable disease and could no longer carry on his practice. The customer was a merchant in Aÿ, the native village of Pol Roger. The firm developed rapidly. From Aÿ, it moved to Epernay in 1851.
As early as 1855, Pol began to favour the production of brut Champagne. He knew that this was the type of Champagne which the English preferred. By 1899, when its founder died, the brand had acquired an enviable amount of recognition. It had only taken about thirty years.
On 23rd February 1900, a disaster occurred: part of the cellars and the buildings collapsed. Five hundred casks and one and a half million bottles were lost. By this time, Pol Roger’s sons, Maurice and Georges, were in charge of the firm. A show of solidarity together with the brothers’ determination enabled the firm to overcome this catastrophe.
Exports progressed and many crowned heads became customers of the Pol Roger brand. The top restaurants on the Champs-Elysées were serving Pol Roger, but the First World War was to bring this expansion to a halt.

Cathay: Hong Kong COVID-19 aid package not enough
By Chen Chuanren and Adrian Schofield
The Airport Authority Hong Kong (AAHK) announced a HK$1 billion ($129 million) package of financial aid for the city-state's aviation sector, although Cathay Pacific said more is needed to help carriers hard-hit by the COVID-19 crisis.
The bulk of the relief comes from a government waiver of HK$670 million in air traffic control charges to the AAHK for the 2019-2020 fiscal year which will be passed on to users, with another HK$330 million in waivers on other AAHK fees. The relief will apply from February to June, helping airlines, airport tenants and staff.
Hong Kong-based Cathay said it welcomed this latest round of relief measures. However, the carrier stressed it is not enough “given the significant deterioration” in its situation due to COVID-19, and challenges caused by tighter travel restrictions worldwide.
“We are of the view that significantly more much-needed immediate assistance, which is commensurate with the scale of this crisis, still needs to be provided,” Cathay said.
This is the third such aid package introduced since September 2019. Airlines will receive a full waiver on parking and airbridge fees for idle passenger aircraft for five months, a 40% reduction in aircraft landing charges for four months, as well as ramp handling, maintenance and airside vehicle fee relief totaling HK$ 630 million.
Within the airport, service counter license fees, in-terminal service license fees and other charges are bring fully waived. Rental of offices and lounges in the terminal and franchise fees for aviation support services including aircraft catering, fueling and maintenance, as well as cargo terminal services has been reduced by 10% to 50% for three to four months.
To help airport tenants deal with the dwindling passenger numbers, there will be rental concession of 70% for three months from March to May, and 50% in June—a step up from the 20% discount introduced in October 2019 during the period of anti-government protests.
A further HK$50 million will be spent on training for airport staff who are on unpaid leave, which is estimated to benefit 25,000 employees.
The aid package follows the implementation of more stringent entry restrictions in Hong Kong. Starting March 25, all non-Hong Kong residents will be barred from entering via air travel and transit services will cease as well. Cathay Pacific and Cathay Dragon have announced a 96% capacity cut from April to May, flying reduced services to only 15 destinations.

A brand’s power/strength is assessed based on metrics such as stadium capacity, squad size and value, social media presence, on-pitch performance, fan satisfaction, fair-play rating, stadium utilization, and revenue – to create a ‘Brand Strength Index’ (BSI) score out of 100.
This is used to determine what proportion of a business’s revenue is contributed by the brand, which is projected into perpetuity and discounted to determine the brand’s value.
Real Madrid’s superb season sees Los Blancos eclipse rivals Barcelona to become the world’s most powerful football club brand. After claiming yet another La Liga title and a record 12th Champions League victory, Real’s Brand Strength Index score is up from 94.6 to 96.1, edging ahead of Barcelona on 95.4.
Despite being football’s most powerful brand, in terms of brand value, Real however, still trails Manchester United by a considerable margin in terms of value.
United, despite finishing a disappointing 6th in the Premier League, is the most valuable brand in football, worth US$1.733 billion to Real’s US$1.419 billion.
United lifted the Europa League trophy for the first time last month following their 2-0 victory over Ajax.

Premier League clubs continue to lead the world when it comes to commercialising their brands; six of the top ten most valuable football brands are English.
Title rivals Chelsea and Tottenham have recorded some of the biggest gains this year after successful seasons that saw Chelsea regain its status as England’s best, under dynamic new manager Antonio Conte.
Commercially, Chelsea stand to gain significantly through a reported £900 million, 15 year deal with Nike as well as from a near 50% increase to the capacity of Stamford Bridge. Tottenham is also expanding its home; the new White Hart Lane has been innovatively designed and will offer 61,000 spectators the opportunity to see Spurs on home turf.
Tottenham’s brand value is up 58% on last year and Chelsea’s 61% to US$1.248 billion.
All Premier League teams continue to benefit from the vast revenues brought in by the latest broadcasting rights deal with Sky and BT.
The relatively equitable split is particularly helpful to smaller clubs and helps to explain how a club such as Bournemouth (which joined the Premier League just two years ago and comes from a town of just 180,000 inhabitants) controls a more valuable brand than much longer established European top tier clubs such as Olympique Lyonnais, Inter Milan, and AS Roma.
The costs of missing out on Premier League status are clear too. Another season in the Championship for Aston Villa and relegation for Sunderland see both drop out of this year’s list.
Sunderland’s loss has been Newcastle’s gain. The Magpies’ promotion will see revenues return and restore international exposure to the Tyneside club. As a result, brand value is up 92% to US$247 million, making Newcastle this year’s fastest growing brand.

Larry Foyt may be earning praise for his management of the team that bears his father’s name. But he makes sure to keep four-time Indianapolis 500 champion A.J. Foyt 100 percent involved in its direction.
“Believe it or not, I hardly make a decision that we [both] don’t go over,” Larry said on Thursday at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. “Our working relationship has really been awesome. When I first came in, when he made the announcement that I was going to be team director, I didn’t want to just jump in and be the boss’ kid [and] come in and change everything. I really had to get back into an IndyCar mentality. I wanted to analyze the team, see what we were working with.
“As I’ve learned over the years, every year he’s given me a little bit more leeway to do things the way I’ve wanted. I think we’ve become a more engineering-based team, kind of what modern IndyCar racing is. It has changed a lot over the years.”
It was Larry that was the catalyst for the team’s signing of driver Takuma Sato, with A.J. mentioning that his son was “doing most of the talking” on that effort. So far, the decision has paid off handsomely with Sato’s victory at Long Beach last month (the first in over a decade for A.J. Foyt Racing) and a place atop the IZOD IndyCar Series championship standings going into this weekend’s “500.”
“I think we knew he was a good race driver,” A.J. said about Sato’s hire. “He did a lot of testing for Honda way back yonder on road courses. [We were] kind of looking for a guy that could play both parts, ovals and road courses…He does give you good feedback. [He] and the engineers work very close. I think that’s really been successful for us.”
As for the chances that he, Rick Mears and Al Unser are joined by either Helio Castroneves or Dario Franchitti this weekend as four-time winners of the “500,” A.J. said he wouldn’t be surprised to see “a six, seven, eight-time winner” of the race one day with the current technology being used.
However, he also wondered how Castroneves and Franchitti would fare in the equipment he raced with in the past.
“They’re good race car drivers with the equipment they’re in, [but] they need to get in a roadster with cement tires and see how good they stick in a corner,” A.J. said, earning some laughs from his audience.

The New Bay View Knights Chess Club in Milwaukee attracts players of all ages
In an instant Sunday afternoon, empty chairs and cushions were waiting on Olga Thomas’ lawn in Milwaukee’s Bay View neighborhood.
In the next, enthusiastic chess enthusiasts and beginners arrived, taking their seats, setting up their chessboards and diving into the games.
It was the second meeting of the new Bay View Knights chess club, started by Thomas after he inquired in a neighborhood Facebook group about area chess clubs for his 14-year-old son.
Or maybe, she writes, someone would like to stop by her house on East Oklahoma Avenue for a game.
The response has been “overwhelmingly positive,” Thomas said. Hundreds of people responded offering to play or saying they had always wanted to learn.
“Watching all these messages come in, I realized this would have to be an organized event. There was no way to track everything,” she said.
“So within a week we had a logo, a brand, a chess club, chess tables, chess boards and a scheduled event,” she said.
The first event drew about 50 people, Thomas said. She knew some of the attendees, but others were complete strangers who had seen the event on Facebook and wanted to stop by.
At the event on Sunday, 9-year-old Cristian Palacios from Brookfield arrived with his dad Julian looking for new competitors and a fun weekend activity.
“It’s my favorite thing to do,” Cristian said as he set up his board.
Thomas warmly greeted everyone who approached the bustling patio, led them to tables and helped them settle in with partners. Within minutes, she welcomed a dad who had won against her last week and a student who had just started learning how to gamble online.
‘Safe space’ as COVID wanes
“I think coming out of COVID, everyone is craving social interaction, and this event creates a safe space for people to meet and do something fun,” she said.
Thomas is also quick to point out the benefits of chess itself: it allows players to focus, use their creativity, and see the consequences of their actions.
She is proud to share the game she grew up playing with her father in Romania, and she is happy to see the diversity among the club participants.
“At the last event, I was watching a 9-year-old player play with a 60-year-old player. These two people are two people who normally wouldn’t have a conversation in everyday life,” Thomas said. “We we can all learn from each other.”
Peter Bolgert, a chess coach at Bay View College, heard about the new club and lent Thomas 10 chess sets. He stopped by on Sunday to watch a few games and play some of his own.
“With the pandemic, not much is happening. It’s really nice to meet and play games with people in person. It’s more fun than playing online or playing against the computer,” Bolgert said.
Aside from a “serious club” at Hales Corners, there aren’t many options for adults who want to play, he said.
“Milwaukee doesn’t have a very active chess scene,” Bolgert said. “Finding a chess game in the city of Milwaukee isn’t easy if you’re not a kid.”
Thomas envisions a Milwaukee with more chess fans and more opportunities to play — similar to the thriving chess world depicted in Netflix hit “The Queen’s Gambit,” with residents presiding over games in the park.
Inspired by the same scenes from her own youth, Thomas plans to have Milwaukee County Parks place cement tables in a Bay View park.
For now, the club will continue all summer in its front yard. After that, it will need a new interior home and a new organizer.
Anyone aged 7 and over can attend the club, which is held from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. every other Sunday. See more details on the Bay View Knights Chess Club page on Facebook.
Thomas is also hosting an event called “Chess by Candlelight” for adults from 8-11 p.m. Friday.
After:Running out of things to do with your kids? Here are 100 ideas for this summer.
After:Seven homes on a Bay View block are to become a new Milwaukee Historic District. They were built in 1867 for steelworkers.

But now, we know that the film-makers won't compromise for meagre amounts. Besides, fearing competition at the Box Office most the satellite rights of most films are sold even before its release.
Now back to Athadu. Maa TV had the satellite rights of Mahesh's popular movie. We hear that the TV wanted to renew its contract with the producer after 7 years and guess what? The film was sold for Rs 3.5 crores.
Interestingly, Maa TV didn't mind shelling out so much for they know they can get the Return on Investment from Ads as Mahesh Babu's Athadu is among the mostly watched movies on their channel.
Win win situation for both producer and TV channel huh?

More Than a Job FAQ
“More Than a Job” sums up how many faculty and staff who give to the Berklee Fund feel about the college. By sharing stories about what Berklee means, we hope to encourage more faculty and staff to donate to the Berklee Fund, thereby providing more resources for our students.
Because the need of our students is great, every member of this community—parents, alumni, friends, faculty, and staff—is asked to give financially at a level that is comfortable to them. Every member of this community has a stake in our students’ success.
- It’s another way we can help students.
- Our participation can inspire others to give.
- Berklee is more than just our employer.
- It’s a statement about what we feel about Berklee.
- It shows the world that Berklee is worth supporting.
- It feels good.
Your fellow faculty and staff tell you why in the More Than a Job video.
When philanthropists and grantmakers see that those closest to the college give to the Berklee Fund (at any level), it sends a powerful message about the commitment here, and that encourages them to write the checks that make big things happen for our students.
When we each give a little, great things happen for our students and the Berklee community.
Your gift to the Berklee Fund supports students immediately. As an unrestricted gift, it is used to serve the most pressing needs of the college.
Each dollar you give is one a student need not pay in tuition. Your gift makes Berklee more affordable for students while supporting all that makes Berklee unique—including you.
Participation is what matters, not how much you give. Participate at a level that feels right for you. Your fellow faculty and staff make payroll gifts ranging from $1 to more than $100 per pay period.
A recurring gift through payroll deduction is the easiest way to give. Since payroll deduction spreads your gift over the entire year, many faculty and staff find it the most comfortable way to make a difference.
To give through payroll deduction, visit berklee.edu/more-than-a-job and indicate how much you'd like to give to the Berklee Fund each pay period. It's that easy.
You can also give online at berklee.edu/make-gift, by check, or by calling Marissa Finer, assistant director of the Berklee Fund, at 617-747-2450.
Thank you for already giving to Berklee.
Gifts to the Berklee Fund are unrestricted. The more unrestricted funds we have, the more we can reduce tuition for every student—not just those who fit the criteria of endowed scholarships.
In addition, many grant-making institutions want to know how many stakeholders give to the annual fund of the college.
Still have questions? Contact Marissa Finer at email@example.com or 617-747-2450.
Your participation means so much for our students and the entire Berklee community. Thank you!

New energy vehicle solutions
New energy vehicles are a hot topic in the automotive field today. In the design process of new energy vehicles, we provide accurate simulation involving fluid, structure, temperature, electromagnetic, materials and other fields. In the manufacturing process, we provide solutions such as battery shell size detection and parts shape control, and focus on the hot areas of automotive lightweight, including composite material quality detection, material property analysis and others.
New energy vehicle is a complex product composed of thousands of parts. In the process of simulation design and development, it involves complex and multi-physical field issues in many areas such as fluid, structure, temperature, electromagnetic and control. Due to the great difference in structure and working principle with traditional vehicles, automotive engineers are faced with many challenges in the design and development of new energy vehicles, mainly of the CAE simulation technology for the key components including power battery pack, traction motor and generator, battery thermal analysis, battery shell size inspection, etc.
Battery pack shell inspection
New energy vehicle uses battery power to activate electric control system and motor. The battery shell is the loading part of new energy vehicles which is mainly used to protect the battery from damage in case of collisions or compression. It plays a key role in the safety work and protection of the battery module.

Over the past several years I’ve visited the Creative Discovery Museum several times with my nieces and daughter, and when the weather turns warmer we plan to go again! Only 1-1/2 hours or so from Huntsville, Chattanooga is one of our favorite day trip destinations. It makes a great weekend trip too – hotel rates are reasonable, and there are lots of things to do in the area. We love walking along the renovated riverfront (be sure to find the nice playground) and across the bridge to the park and carousel.
The Creative Discovery Museum is a wonderful hands-on children’s museum. There are exhibits and activities for kids of all ages, and adults will enjoy it, too! Allow at least two hours for your visit. One of my older nieces needed more time than we had – she would have been happy there for three or four hours! You will want to consider your children’s interest and attention spans when you plan your time.The first exhibit after entering the museum is one of my daughter’s favorites: River Play! It is a large water-play area which all ages will enjoy. There are more simple toys for the younger ones, and more complicated flow experiments for older kids. Don’t forget the waterproof aprons hanging on the wall – we didn’t notice them the first time we went, and clothes got soaked!
Toddlers and preschoolers up to four years will also enjoy the Little Yellow House, which includes a child-sized kitchen, garage (complete with car), and more. Another favorite is the Excavation Station, where kids of all ages can be archeologists and dig in the sand for dinosaur bones! The wonderful Rooftop Fun Factory provides creative and inventive playtime (and great views of the city), weather permitting.
One of the features I really enjoyed about the museum is the extent of each of the exhibits, and the careful planning that went into each one. There is a large arts and crafts area with many different mediums represented: clay, sculpture, painting, rubbings, and more.
The music and theatre area is extensive, also, featuring many different instruments, sound booth, and a small stage with sound effects and costumes.
I visited once with my Mom and one of my nieces, and they spent a lot of time playing “Nurse” and “Patient” at the Corner Clinic. Mom loved it – she had been a registered nurse for years. A few years later, I enjoyed watching my then 2-year-old filling out appointment cards and weighing her Daddy on the clinic scale.
There are too many exhibits to write about here, but you can visit the museum’s Permanent Exhibits page where you will find links to all the different areas and activities (including those mentioned in this post) so you can explore more on your own. The Creative Discovery Museum has a full calendar of events, special exhibits, weekly activities, camps, and more.
Click here for information on current ticket pricing and to purchase tickets online. If you live near Chattanooga, you may want to become a memberfor unlimited year-long access. I hope you enjoy your trip! You are welcome to comment below with your family’s experience!
