Over the past decade at least, financial scandals involving theft and money laundering hounded the Holy See’s Secretariat of State and its Financial Information Authority. Ongoing financial reforms made under the current CEO Bergoglio are not enough to improve its cash flow.
Back in 2019, Reuters reported that,
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) – Vatican police raided the offices of the Holy See’s Secretariat of State and its Financial Information Authority, or AIF, on Tuesday and took away documents and electronic devices as part of an investigation of suspected financial irregularities, a Vatican statement said.
It was believed to be the first time the two departments were searched for evidence involving alleged financial crimes.
The Secretariat of State, the most powerful department in the Vatican, is the nerve center of its bureaucracy and diplomacy and the administrative heart of the worldwide Catholic Church.
The AIF, headed by Swiss lawyer Rene Bruelhart, is the financial controller, with authority over all Vatican departments.
The Vatican statement gave no details except to say that the operation was a follow-up to complaints filed in the summer by the Vatican bank and the Office of the Auditor General and were related to “financial operations carried out over the course of time”.
A senior Vatican source said he believed the operation, which the statement said had been authorized by Vatican prosecutors, had to do with real estate transactions.

Financial scandals and pedophilia were among the reasons why Pope Maledict resigned from the post in 2013. But…
Since the election of Pope Francis in 2013, the Vatican has made great strides in cleaning up its often murky financial reputation.
Last year, a former head of the Vatican bank and an Italian lawyer went on trial to face charges of money laundering and embezzlement through real estate deals. It is still in progress.
Now, the Vatican is appealing to its avid supporters to help it with more donations, or they will cease operating for the latter’s spiritual upliftment.
ROME — The Vatican warned Friday that it has nearly depleted its financial reserves from past donations to cover budget deficits over recent years, as it urged continued giving from the faithful to keep the Holy See afloat and Pope Francis’ ministry going.
The Vatican published its 2021 budget in its latest effort at greater financial transparency amid a predicted 50 million euro budget deficit this year. The aim is to reassure donors that their money is being well spent, following years of mismanagement that is currently the focus of a Vatican corruption investigation.
Francis’ economy minister, the Rev. Juan Antonio Guerrero Alves, said the coronavirus pandemic, which reduced donations as well as revenue from the shuttered Vatican Museums, would contribute to a projected 30% reduction in revenue to 213 million euros in 2021, from 307 million euros in 2019, the last year available.
He noted the Vatican had achieved significant cost-cutting during the lockdown last year, with drastically reduced travel, consultation fees, conference and assembly costs and putting off unnecessary real estate repairs and maintenance. In an interview with Vatican Media, Guerrero said he expected to further cut expenditures by 8% in 2021, without resorting to layoffs, which Francis opposes.
But even then, the 50 million euro deficit expected for 2021 will require once again dipping into reserves of past donations to cover expenses. Guerrero confirmed that in 2019, the Vatican used 27.2 million euros in Peter’s Pence reserves to cover its operating costs, on top of the 53.8 million euros in revenue to the Peter’s Pence fund that year.
In 2020, he estimated the Vatican took 40 million euros in Peter’s Pence reserves and that a similar amount was expected in 2021.
Peter’s Pence funds, usually offered during an annual collection at Mass, are billed as a concrete way to help the pope in his ministry and works of charity but are also used to run the Holy See bureaucracy.
“This recourse to Peter’s Pence reserves in recent years means that the liquidity of the fund is being depleted and with the current crisis it is very likely that in 2022 we will have to resort to some extent to the assets of APSA,” he said, referring to the Vatican’s central bank, which manages the Holy See’s real estate and other financial investments.

11 May 2022
The Communications Regulatory Authority of Namibia (CRAN) will review its frequency bands every four years, in accordance with the new guidelines of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU).
These guidelines promote cross-border interoperability and new technologies.
CRAN’S director general, Emilia Nghikembua (pictured), said the regulator “will amend frequency band allocations and regulations as necessary, following the appropriate regulatory processs”. For example, spectrum licensees would be required to migrate to new frequencies following the implementation of a new frequency band plan. The authority will deal with each migration on a case-by-case basis.
This initiative is part of one of the missions of the Communications Regulatory Authority, which is the management of spectrum designed to “facilitate the availability of spectrum to be used as a tool for the development of communication services and access to infrastructure of information technology and communication (ICT).
It comes just weeks after the regulator announced that it will suspend the award of new telecoms licenses between October 1, 2022 and September 30, 2023, so it can assess the level of competition in the Namibian mobile market and determine the level of saturation.
With this initiative, the communications regulator wants to keep up with the latest regulatory trends and technological developments to ensure the efficient use of the limited telecom spectrum resource. “It is essential to ensure interoperability between systems and networks, to facilitate frequency coordination between countries and to establish international systems,” said Nghikembua.
This initiative is also expected to help develop Namibia’s ICT sector. It will contribute to social and economic development and enable governments and people to take advantage of the digital transformation and opportunities presented by the fourth industrial revolution.


VIDEO: 'FAR AWAY' WITH STRINGS ATTACHED
NEW VIDEO. A few weeks ago, we recorded a special version of Far Away (Saudade) with strings at the Old Seacroft Chapel, Leeds. We loved it so much we've decided to include it as a bonus track on our upcoming EP.
Massive thanks to Chris Cook for arranging the strings, to Hannah, Madie and Robyn for performing with us, to Ed Heaton for recording, to Chapel FM for hosting and to Sandy and Ben at Little Less Known for capturing the whole thing so beautifully on film.

Tata Nano AMT’s openable boot spied with no camouflage: Launch by Diwali
Tata Nano AMT is one among much awaited launches this year that could create huge impact in its respective segments. Aravinthkumar J, an avid RushLane reader snapped and shared the upcoming Nano AMT test mule images and mentioned that it was surprisingly quieter than current ones.
Most importantly, keyhole to unlock boot hatch door is clearly visible and the trapezium shaped recess looks like the rear fog lamp is moved up. Rear hatch door has slightly different panel design. Seems the whole package was not just an easy tweak for Tata, hope this doesn’t call for extra budget.
Tata Nano Twist Active could be this variant’s label, showcased in 2014 Auto Expo earlier this year. Besides openable boot and redesigned bumpers, Twist Active is expected to feature EPS (Electric Power Steering) as seen in Nano Twist XT, a 24 litre fuel tank (in place of 15 litre one in present models), Infinity Motif seat cover, colour coordinated trims on dashboard, new gear lever and upgraded 3 spoke steering wheel.
Tata is in the works of launching Zest compact sedan next month, spy shots of which keep surfacing on the internet. Tata Zest is expected to be the second AMT equipped vehicle in Indian market, and the first diesel powered compact sedan. With Nano AMT also coming soon, Tata could wriggle its way back to being a worthy opponent to segment victors, and gradually reclaim its lost market share.
The spied ultra small car was spotted on L&T bypass road – NH-47 just outside Coimbatore city. It could possibly be owned and tested by Jeyam Automotive, Tata Motors’ key engine and vehicle testing service provider in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu.

Christopher Ledger, Pirvu, Sublee, Cristi Cons, Topper, DeWalta – Family Jubilee III [Meander Records]
The notorious Berlin-based label Meander announces part III of the Family Jubilee various artists series to arrive in May as a double release, this time featuring tracks from Christopher Ledger, Pîrvu, Sublee, Cristi Cons, Topper and DeWalta. With the first record published back in 2007, the imprint constantly provided carefully selected techno and house music to an international audience, enjoying massive support from the underground community. Aside from our protagonists, Meander’s extended catalogue also includes productions signed by artists like Pikaya, Alejandro Mosso, Ion Ludwig, Hreno, Kamran Sadeghi, Alci, Barac, Vlad Caia and Franky Greiner, among others.
The first part opens with Christopher Ledger & Pressure Point‘s “Astral Corp”, an uplifting and twisted microhouse cut designed with deep vibrations, subtle breakbeat drumming patterns and spacious breakdowns. The driving energy is passed over to the B-Side where “Ostinato” by Pîrvu drops a pumping stripped-down rhythm flavoured with a solid bassline and engaging vocal cuts that call for dancing. The closing cut “Parausted” sees local artist Sublee going for an ethereal ambient-oriented composition where the focus falls on the background textures and pads.
Side A of the second record features Cristi Cons with his intricate minimalistic journey titled “For No Reason” which reverberates through the frequencies at a steady pace as the vibrant percussion and playful synth work create a hypnotic rotation. On Side B we first find Topper with “Bell Without A Cow” revealing a swinging rhythm elegantly built with numerous microlayers and funky variations as well as DeWalta’s “Estromanium”, a driving piece set at around 128 bpm, carefully contrasted by warm ever-evolving textures and introspective effects.

Medicare Rights Center President Joe Baker Sends Letter Thanking Speaker Pelosi for Her Commitment to People with Medicare
New York, NY—Medicare Rights Center President sent a letter today to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, expressing his thanks for including provisions that will benefit people with Medicare in the final health reform legislation package that is coming up for a vote over the weekend.
The letter is below, and can also be found here.
The Medicare Rights Center has also just published an updated side-by-side chart that compares the impact on Medicare of the final health care reform bill and the Senate version passed in December 2009.
March 19, 2010
The Honorable Nancy Pelosi
United States House of Representatives
Washington D.C. 20515
Dear Speaker Pelosi:
The Medicare Rights Center, a national nonprofit consumer service organization for people with Medicare, believes that the Health Care and Education Affordability Reconciliation Act of 2010 (H.R. 4872)—the final health care package now coming to a vote in the House of Representatives—will provide much-needed benefits to people with Medicare. The final package represents a comprehensive approach to health care reform while making important improvements and investments in Medicare.
There are several major ways that this landmark legislation will improve Medicare. Firstly, the legislation eliminates the Part D coverage gap by 2020, decreasing the share of costs paid by consumers while in the so-called “doughnut hole” until it reaches the standard 25 percent. People with Medicare who reach the coverage gap in 2010 will immediately benefit from the legislation, receiving a $250 rebate. In 2011, people with Medicare who enter the coverage gap will receive a 50 percent discount on brand-name drugs.
Over 3.4 million people with Medicare hit the coverage gap each year and struggle to pay the full price of their medicines. We frequently receive calls on our consumer hotlines from individuals who must skip doses, split their pills or forgo medications altogether because of the high out-of-pocket costs of prescription drugs during the coverage gap.
In addition, the bill makes a considerable investment in primary and preventive care, exactly the type of care that older adults and people with disabilities with Medicare need to be active members in their communities. For example, the package provides coverage under Medicare for an annual wellness visit and personalized prevention plan at no charge. Also, the legislation increases reimbursements to doctors who provide primary care, increasing access to these services for people with Medicare. Furthermore, people with Medicare will benefit from provisions that will eliminate deductibles and cost-sharing for preventive services such as glaucoma screening and diabetes self-management training.
Despite claims to the contrary, the bill does not cut any Medicare benefits. However, it will reduce overpayments to Medicare Advantage plans administered by private insurance companies. Medicare Advantage plans are paid on average 14 percent more per enrollee than Original Medicare. These overpayments all too frequently fail to result in lower costs and better benefits. While some private plans perform well, the Medicare Advantage program as a whole has fallen short of its promise, annually costing taxpayers $11 billion in excess of the costs of Original Medicare. By providing bonus payments to Medicare Advantage plans that deliver high-quality care and limiting the money plans put toward administrative overhead, marketing and profits, H.R. 4872 helps to ensure that both taxpayers and Medicare consumers will receive value from Medicare Advantage plans.
Lastly, the final health care reform package also provides access to health coverage for millions of Americans without health insurance, including people with disabilities enduring the two-year wait for Medicare. Assistance with premiums and cost-sharing will help ensure middle-class Americans will be able to afford the medical care they need, while the expansion of Medicaid coverage provides a cost-effective means of delivering care to people with low incomes.
We thank you for your commitment to health care reform and preserving Medicare, putting the needs of your constituents for affordable, high-quality health care at the forefront of this legislative effort.

There you have it! The fab 100. The UK’s most searched for independent takeaway restaurants, according to TripAdvisor data’s algorithm.
Let’s take a deeper dive into what we found out…
London dominates the top independent restaurant scene
Maybe it shouldn’t come as a shock, but it’s official - London, indeed, is the home to over 30% of these top restaurants.
In total, 32 of them are located in the UK’s capital city, including a whopping eight of the 20 best Chinese restaurants.
What do the reviews say?
It’s a known fact that the majority of Brits have a love affair with fish and chips.
It’s a staple of UK culture and, to that extent, it’s no surprise whatsoever that we also love to leave reviews on fish and chip restaurants!
In total, the 20 restaurant takeaways amassed nearly 50,000 reviews between them and more than 20,000 more compared to the named Indian establishments.
Out of the entire list, Magpie Cafe, in Whitby, was the cream of the crop, having been reviewed more than a whopping 8,000 times! Here’s a look at how the most reviewed of these takeaways stack up...
How do the prices match up?
So, we have our top 100, but how do they fair with each other when it comes to prices?
We have dived into their TripAdvisor pages, websites, and social media channels to find out just what it would cost us for a standard Margherita pizza, fish and chips, or a kebab with a pitta and side salad.
The prices make for decent reading and it turns out that a visit to one of the UK’s finest independent takeaway restaurants isn’t going to hit your wallet too hard.
It turns out that the average prices are as follows:
Margherita Pizza = £8
Fish and chips = £10
Kebab, pitta, and side salad = £9.50
This is how the top 10s look:
Fish and chips
Kebab, pitta, and side salad
Enzo’s Pizza Takeaway (£3.70)
Bailey’s Fish and Chips (£5.20)
Pizza Union King’s Cross (£3.95)

In 1997 University of Pennsylvania alumnus and member of the Penn Libraries Board of Overseers, Lawrence J. Schoenberg (C’53, WG’57) set out to build a database that would enable researchers to track and identify the world's manuscript books produced before 1600. He acquired a data set from John Feldman, an historian who was himself interested in the movement of books of hours in the book trade.
A manuscript collector and amateur research scholar, Larry began his database as a personal project to track the historic and current locations of the world’s manuscript books, as well as their value, across time and place. He began with a Microsoft Excel file, eventually converting that to a Microsoft Access database in 1999. In addition to tracking current sales from his home in Longboat Key, Florida, Larry would make a point of visiting libraries during his travels throughout Europe to pore over their catalog holdings. He was even able to convince his favorite and constant travel companion, his wife Barbara Brizdle Schoenberg, to join in. Foregoing the traditional sightseeing that one typically does in Europe, Larry and Barbara would instead knock on the doors of such institutions as the Cambridge University Library, which houses the papers and catalogs of A. L. Munby, and the Château de Chantilly, home of the collection that houses the famed Très Riches Heures of Jean, Duc de Berry, the great 15th-century French bibliophile, in the search for more data. Larry also became a fixture in the library at the Grolier Club in New York, where he had been a member since 2004. He could frequently be found seated at a small desk in the stacks, where he had direct access to the catalogs that would satisfy his voracious appetite for more manuscript data.
As the database grew, so did its user-base among manuscript scholars and aficionados who worked from copies supplied to them by Larry himself. Its increasing reputation as a research aid in manuscript studies necessitated a move to make it more easily accessible to a wider audience. As a dedicated Penn alumnus, Larry looked toward his alma mater and specifically to Penn Libraries where he had previously funded the the trendsetting digital laboratory Schoenberg Center for Electronic Text and Image (SCETI). In 2005, SCETI began hosting the database, and thanks to the work of David McKnight and Dennis Mullen, it was made freely available online. In 2007 Larry and Barbara entered into a partnership with Penn Libraries that enabled SCETI to hire new staff to manage, edit, and contribute new records to the database. In addition to their financial support, both Larry and Barbara continued to be involved in all of its operations, from oversight to data entry and research. Penn Libraries and SCETI provided professional expertise in the areas of information management, bibliographic standards, and web technologies. In 2013, the database became the cornerstone project of the newly founded Schoenberg Institute for Manuscript Studies, created by Penn Libraries in response to Larry and Barbara’s donation of their important collection of manuscripts. It remains under the stewardship of the Schoenberg Institute to this day.
Throughout the lifetime of the SDBM, Larry and Barbara have been assisted by a number of researchers. These included Elisabeth Sinnott at the Grolier Club, Anthony Ossa-Richardson in London, Berthold Kress in Cambridge, and Saskia van Bergen in Amsterdam. In Florida assisting Larry directly, were Emma Cawlfield, Sarah Tew, Matt Anderson, and Melinda Thackrah. At Penn, Tekla Bude, Matija Budisin, Megan Cook, Alexander Devine, Jen Jahner, Joseph Malcomson put in many hours away from dissertations and other scholarly pursuits to advance the SDBM cause. We are grateful to all of these researchers for their time and effort.
Seeking to grow the SDBM, Larry and the SDBM staff also sought collaborations with other similar projects with which he could share data. In 2007 the SDBM incorporated the data from the Jordanus Database of Scientific Manuscripts, begun by Menso Folkerts of Institut für Geschichte der Naturwissenschaften at the University of Munich, raising the number of records to over 125,000. In 2010 the Houghton Library of Harvard University contributed the MARC records for its manuscript collection to be ingested into the SDBM. In another collaboration, the SDBM created the Seymour de Ricci Bibliotheca Britannica Manuscripta Digitized Archive, in partnership with the Senate House Library at the University of London where the archive is housed. The De Ricci Digitized Archive contains over 65,000 scanned note cards from the bibliographer’s unfinished project to produce a census of manuscripts in Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The archive is a treasure trove of provenance data that complements and enhances the work of the SDBM.
When Larry and Barbara entered into a partnership with Penn Libraries in 2005, their goal was to transform the Schoenberg Database of Manuscripts into a comprehensive, online electronic resource for the study, identification, ownership, and transmission of medieval and early Renaissance manuscripts. They also sought to expand the scope of the database so that it could serve as a "union catalog" of medieval and early modern manuscripts through collaboration and partnerships with other institutions, initiatives, and individuals.
Sadly, Larry passed away on May 7, 2014. Despite this great loss, the SDBM staff, together with his wife Barbara, continue the work that Larry started nearly 20 years ago. Shortly before his death, the SDBM received a $300,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities to support a three-year project to develop the SDBM into an online, user-built, community driven collaborative tool for researching the historic and current locations of the world's pre-modern manuscripts (). In the first year of the grant, Jeffrey Chiu built the new data model and functionality that forms the foundation of the New SDBM. In the second year, Benjamin Heller refined the functionality and developed interface solutions to facilitate and enhance users’ experience. These new features will allow institutions, librarians, scholars, curators, students, and citizen scholars to contribute information about these books and their movements through time and space. As of June 2017, thanks to the efforts of the many people mentioned above and our user community , the New SDBM has taken the first necessary steps toward realizing Larry’s vision of a robust, interactive tool for finding, indexing, and researching the world's manuscripts.
-- Lynn Ransom, Project Director, The New SDBM

I have a problem that has perplexed me for the last three years concerning the Ruger Mark IV Target .22 LR pistol I shoot for Steel Challenge competition and just ringing steel for fun. In cleaning this gun over the last three years, I have yet to come out with a clean patch at the end of my cleaning sessions.
It’s important to remember that shooting is fun; and this is just the pistol to remind us of that fact.
The .22LR G44 mimics the size of the Glock G19, but it's more than just a substitute for it's 9mm cousin.
While a thorough cleaning should be enough to eliminate stubborn rimfire brass from failing to eject from a .22 LR Colt Diamondback, soaking the chambers with a penetrating lubricant like Kano Kroil should remove any leftover firing residue and restore positive extraction.

This is an enormous, 483-room formal New Orleans hotel with a number of different suites that can accommodate a family of five (5) or six (6). The hotel’s website allows the consumer to search for a room for 5 or 6 where it will list the various options.
Our family (older teenagers) traversed the Bourbon Street gauntlet one evening. I would suggest not staying on that side of the hotel as the activity (read noise) is loud and goes late on Bourbon street. It is otherwise very well located for experiencing the French Quarter.

Tips and Reservation Info
firstname.lastname@example.org is the hotel's general email address, however it is easy to search using the hotel's website for a family of five. This may or may not provide the best rate. The larger travel search engines like Booking.com did not allow the consumer to search using five people with this hotel at the time of this writing. An alternative would be to determine which rooms or suites can accommodate five e.g.; their room with two double beds (bring in cot), and then reserve the room through the discounted travel search engine. Contact the hotel to make sure that the room you have reserved though this process will allow you to sleep5 for peace of mind.

The meaning and distribution of Islamic countries
“Islamic countries” (also known as Muslim countries) refer to countries and regions where Islam is the state religion and most residents believe in Islam.
Islamic countries are mainly distributed in the Middle East, the Arabian Peninsula, and some other regions in Africa and Asia. Such as Iran, Afghanistan, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Indonesia, etc.
An Islamic country refers to a country whose citizens are mainly followers of Islam (Muslims). Some countries have implemented a policy of unity of administration and religion, but most of them are considered to be “combination of politics and religion” regimes (family rule is opposed to Islamic law), which only selectively enforce Islamic laws based on their political interests, so Islamic law is limited to In civil litigation.
Islamic countries are mainly distributed in the Middle East, the Arabian Peninsula, and some other regions in Africa and Asia. Such as Iran, Afghanistan, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Indonesia, etc. The laws of these countries generally only refer to the Quran and the Sunnah and will not be fully implemented.
Islamic countries have two main meanings:
- Broadly refers to countries where Islam is the state religion (or official religion), or where most residents believe in Islam. The main feature is that the head of state is a Muslim, recognizes Sharia as one of the main sources of national legislation, and attaches importance to Islamic cultural traditions. In contemporary times, the four countries of Pakistan, Iran, Mauritania and Comoros are named the Islamic Republic. Although Muslims do not make up the majority of the population in some countries, they are deeply influenced by Islam and are also called Islamic countries. Also refers to the member states of the Organization of the Islamic Conference. There are 44 Islamic countries in the world, including 21 in Asia and 23 in Africa.
- In particular, it refers to the unity of politics and religion advocated by the Islamic fundamentalists of various countries based on the ancient Caliphate state as a model, also known as the Islamic society (ie Ummah), the Islamic order, and the veritable Islamic state.
Its main features are:
(1) Recognizing that all sovereignty belongs only to Allah, and Allah is the absolute sovereign of all things in the universe. Countries, political parties, groups, and individuals have no legislative power, but can only follow the sacred Sharia. The country must be based on Allah’s rule of law, and any legislation must not go against the Quran and the will of Allah.
(2) Recognizing the authority of the Prophet, the Prophet Muhammad is the agent of Allah in the world, and has the right to exercise political and legal powers on behalf of Allah. His words and actions are one of the main basis for legislation.
(3) Recognize the rights that the state has granted to Muslims by Allah. The country has the right to exercise the sovereignty of the prophet in its kingdom. The rule of the country belongs to all Muslims, and its basic duty is to safeguard the fundamental interests of the people.
(4) The state must respect the wishes of the Muslim masses and handle state affairs through extensive democratic consultations, including the election of the head of state. The above-mentioned basic principles are a kind of political ideals expounded by religious scholars. So far, there has not been a complete religious regime of this kind in the world.
“Islamic countries” generally refer to countries and regions where Islam is the state religion and the majority of residents believe in Islam (Islamic countries are sometimes called Muslim countries, and Muslims mean Islam).
They include all Arab countries (Kuwait, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Republic of Yemen, Oman, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Egypt, Sudan, Libya, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, Western Sahara, Mauritania , Somalia, Djibouti and Comoros), Senegal, Gambia, Guinea, Sierra Leone, Mali, Niger, Nigeria and Chad in Africa, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Albania and Kosovo in Europe, and Turkey, Azerbaijan, Iran, Afghanistan, Kazakhstan in Asia , Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Maldives, Indonesia, Malaysia and Brunei.
A total of 47 countries and 2 regions (Western Sahara and Kosovo).
Among them, only about half of Lebanon, Chad, Nigeria, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Malaysia believe in Islam.
There are some countries where Muslims do not make up the majority of the population, but due to the influence of Islam, they have also declared to be Islamic countries and joined the Organization of the Islamic Conference. They are Guinea-Bissau, Côte d’Ivoire, Burkina Faso, Togo, Benin, Cameroon, Gabon, Uganda, Tanzania (joined in 2009) and Mozambique in Africa, and Guyana and Suriname in South America.

Robina 7 Day Doctors and Acupuncture recommends this video:
Tennis elbow is considered an overload injury, and it typically occurs after minor trauma of the extensor muscles of the forearm. It is primarily a type of tendonitis though the muscles and bones of the epicondyle joint may also be involved. Pain can also occur on the inner side of the elbow, which is known as golfer’s elbow. Although generally self-limiting, symptoms of tennis elbow can persist for 1.5 to 2 years.
HOW ACUPUNCTURE HELPS
In general, acupuncture is believed to stimulate the nervous system and cause the release of neurochemical messenger molecules. The resulting biochemical changes influence the body’s homeostatic mechanisms, thus promoting physical and emotional well-being.
Acupuncture may help relieve symptoms of tennis elbow, such as pain and inflammation by:
- stimulating nerves located in muscles and other tissues, which leads to release of endorphins and other neurohumoral factors. This changes the processing of pain in the brain and spinal cord.
- delivering analgesia via alpha-adrenoceptor mechanisms.
- increasing the release of adenosine, which has antinociceptive properties.
- modulating the limbic-paralimbic-neocortical network.
- reducing inflammation, by promoting release of vascular and immunomodulatory factors.
- improving muscle stiffness and joint mobility by increasing local microcirculation.
Acupuncture works on different pathways
The pathways which acupuncture uses are myriad, and in any 1 person or medical condition the pathways will be different, so we urge people to try treatment at least 6 times for their condition before evaluating. The outcomes for different conditions and different people makes it impossible to predict how any one person will respond.

Destiny’s New Subclasses Explained
Bungie has revealed details on the three new subclasses that will flesh out the suite of elemental options for each of Destiny’s three guardian classes, as well as info on the grenades and other features that define each new style of play.
The Nightstalker Hunter
Hunters now have a Void elemental super option when they choose to play as a Nightstalker. The Nightstalker’s super is the Shadowshot, a bow-and-arrow blast that flings down a Void Anchor, slowing and suppressing anyone caught in the blast area. It’s an interesting choice, finally offering a large area-of-effect option for a class that has previously focused on precision strike-oriented supers. It will be interesting to see if subsequent adjustments to the Shadowshot add damage effects in addition to slowing and suppressing options. Nightstalkers also get the Voidwall Grenade, which throws up a horizontal wall of burning light. The grenade has some powerful implications for PvP play. A Void Hunter can also throw smoke to disorient and slow targets, as well as gain a Shadestep used to evade damage. Taken together, the Hunter will now have more ability to control the battlefield and move around it with ease.
The Sunbreaker Titan
Solar-powered Sunbreaker Titans are described as “incendiary siege engines of war.” The Hammer of Sol super summons a flaming hammer with which the titan can rain down fiery devastation on fortified enemy positions. The thermite grenade fires a line of fire towards enemies, and the Sunstrike melee ignites struck targets to do burning damage. Finally, the Fire Keeper effect allows Hammer of Sol to last long (and thus allow more enemy blasting) and also provides an overshield while near a Sunspot – although Bungie hasn’t offered a lot of detail about what a Sunspot actually is. While the solar blasts of the Sunbreaker seem to offer a distance damage option for Titans, I'm sure many Titan players will be interested to learn how the solar build further distinguishes itself from the existing Arc Striker build.
The Stormcaller Warlock
Sith Lords, I mean, Stormcallers, can tap into the power of Arc energy to blast foes with lightning. The super called Stormtrance summons these chain-lightning blasts out of your guardian's hands in a wide area around you, while the storm grenade calls down a localized lightning storm. Thunderstrike is an interesting new melee option that can hit targets at an extended range – sure to infuriate Hunters and Titans in the Crucible who are caught in the electrocuting effect. Finally, the Stormcaller Warlocks get an awesome feedback loop with the Perpetual Charge ability, in which a melee kill recharges your grenade, and a grenade kill recharges your melee. Talented players will be able to do some serious damage with that one.
Which new subclass will you level first? Share your thoughts in the comments below.

It often pays off to stash a little chocolate — and cocoa — in the cupboard. The confectionery staples embellish everything and cool weather calls for cocoa.
To those who temper chocolate, temperature matters beyond the chocolate thermometer. As autumn arrives, chocolate delicacies hold up longer, while demand from chocolate lovers increases.
When temperatures dipped, Alps Sweet Shop stepped up chocolate production. The family business, which has locations in Beacon and Fishkill, has handcrafted small-batch fine confections for more than 90 years. It was founded by Peter Charkalis and today is run by his granddaughter, Sally Charkalis-Craft, and her husband, Terry Craft, a master chocolatier.
Customers streamed in to Beacon’s Main Street location last week to choose from sweets in cases brimming with chocolate-covered caramels, heaven-and-earth truffles, chocolate glace fruits, almond butter crunch and molded chocolates.
Terry Craft and his candy makers work year round but fall production keeps them in the kitchen even longer, stirring kettles bubbling with the likes of salted caramel and dark chocolate. He studied his craft in the U.S., Belgium, France, Canada and England, and although producing confections is labor intensive, he says he finds the work rewarding.
“It’s a feel-good type of business,” Craft said. “People are either coming in here to make themselves happy or to make someone else happy.”
The recipes haven’t changed since Peter Charkalis’s day, but the production methods have evolved from the days when every morsel was handmade. Sally’s mother, Mary Charkalis, recalled a turning point in 1968 when the shop bought its first piece of machinery, an enrober. Sally’s grandfather was not happy about the purchase, so her father waited until he was on vacation in Greece to have it delivered. (He eventually came around to appreciate its benefits.)
An enrober — which moves confections down a conveyor belt, along a cold plate to set the bottom and then through a curtain of chocolate for coating — still stands ready in the Beacon shop. Alps has since further modernized its methods by purchasing an automated candy wrapper and computerized molding equipment.
Like any connoisseur in matters of taste, Craft knows cocoa (or cacao, as it is more commonly known where it’s grown). He prefers a Criollo cocoa bean from Ecuador. The common Forastero bean is a close second but he says it doesn’t have the pronounced flavor. As a third option there’s the Trinitario, a hybrid of the Criollo and the Forastero.
“The best of the best [chocolatiers] can tell you while eating them not only what part of the world a bean is from but the region or plantation where they’re grown,” Craft said. “This particular plantation has a patented fermentation process and right now I have exclusive U.S. rights. These Ecuadorian Criollo beans are right off the plantation.” He cracked open a bean, removed the nib and gently crushed it.
“The nib is where the excitement starts,” he explained. “The nib is pressed and the cocoa butter is extracted and what’s left is called the chocolate liquor,” the paste that serves as the essential ingredient for chocolate. Craft sells the Ecuadorian product to restaurants and pastry chefs as well as a microbrewer. He also coats whole beans in organic chocolate and recently filled an order for 25,000.
“You can taste the earthiness, a savory touch, fruitiness and the soil of the region,” he said. “And the cocoa bean is off the charts with its flavonoids and high in vitamins and minerals.”
Savor a piece of gourmet chocolate or make the cake recipe here that calls for cocoa powder and bits of chocolate. Some chip chocolates have a high melting point, so a better choice is a premium chocolate like the break-up bars that Alps produces in milk, dark and organic white chocolate.
Home cooks should be able to find small quantities of good cocoa at local markets. Natural unsweetened cocoa, non-alkalized, will be darker while alkalized will soften bitterness. Some cocoas may also affect rise and texture of a cake. This chocolate cake always pleases, thanks in part to flavorful chocolate, powerful cocoa and a dose of Kahlua.
Chocolate Kahlua Cake
1 ¼ cups sugar
1 ¾ cups flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
½ cup natural unsweetened cocoa powder
4 eggs, beaten
16 ounces sour cream
¾ cups canola oil
⅓ cup Kahlua
6 ounces chocolate, broken into small pieces
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
3 cups powdered sugar
1 ½ cups Kahlua
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter Bundt pan and dust with cocoa. Mix flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda and salt. Add eggs, sour cream, oil and Kahlua. Stir thoroughly and fold in chocolate pieces. Pour batter into pan and bake 1 hour.
Whisk glaze ingredients and set aside.

An Iranian nuclear scientist who Tehran said was kidnapped last year by the U.S. left Washington and was on his way to Iran, officials said Wednesday, ending a bizarre intelligence drama that could snarl U.S. efforts to gather information on Iran's nuclear program.
Researcher Shahram Amiri, who disappeared while on a pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia in 2009, resurfaced at an office of the Pakistan Embassy in Washington Tuesday.
His reappearance deepened the mystery surrounding his recent whereabouts, and raised questions about the extent of his contact with the U.S. government and why he would return to an uncertain fate in Iran.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Mr. Amiri has been in the U.S. "of his own free will," traveled to the embassy on his own, and was free to leave the country.
Until Tuesday, U.S. officials hadn't publicly acknowledged his presence in the country. Officials briefed on Mr. Amiri's stay in the U.S. said he passed on useful information on Iran's nuclear program to American intelligence agencies. Mr. Amiri couldn't be reached to comment.
An Iranian familiar with the case said Iranian authorities had threatened to harm Mr. Amiri's family if he didn't return home. "His family has been under tremendous pressure, they even threatened to kill his son. He had no choice but to play the script the regime has given him and return to Iran," the Iranian said.
A spokesman at Iran's United Nations mission in New York didn't respond to requests to comment.
The intrigue over the scientist comes as the U.S. and its allies ratchet up pressure on Iran over its nuclear program, which Tehran says is peaceful in nature and Washington and others say is for weapons development. The U.N., U.S. and European Union have all recently moved to impose fresh economic sanctions against Tehran to pressure it to curb its nuclear ambitions. It is unclear what role Mr. Amiri may have played in Iran's nuclear program.
The mystery surrounding Mr. Amiri has fed those tensions. Mr. Amiri disappeared during a pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia in June 2009. It remains unclear how Mr. Amiri reached the U.S., or even obtained a visa; officials familiar with the matter said he defected.
One year after his disappearance, Iranian state media aired a video in which Mr. Amiri alleges he was being held against his will in the U.S. after being captured by U.S. forces in Saudi Arabia. Iran filed a complaint to the U.S., according to Iranian media. American officials denied Tehran's charge that he was kidnapped.
In a second video that surfaced on the Internet, Mr. Amiri appeared to contradict that, saying he was in the U.S. of his own free will, but denying he had defected to the U.S.
In a third video, Mr. Amiri says he is in Virginia, and he isn't a free man. "If any thing happens to me the United States is responsible. I want my family to know that I never ever betrayed my country."
While the content of the videos is suspect because its contradictory, the individual in all three videos is believed to be Mr. Amiri.
A U.S. official familiar with the matter said the videos appeared to be intended to dispel any impression that Mr. Amiri had defected. The videos "look designed to burnish his image in Iran, to explain away what he was doing in this country," the official said.
Mr. Amiri arrived at the Pakistani Embassy on Monday by taxi, according to the official familiar. "He could have told the taxi driver to take him anywhere," the official said. "He wants to re-defect, so he's re-defecting."
Mr. Amiri went to the Iranian interest section of the embassy, which is run by Iran under the legal protection of the embassy and offers a channel for Washington to communicate with Tehran, which doesn't have formal diplomatic relations with the U.S.
Mrs. Clinton contrasted Mr. Amiri's situation with that of three American hikers who have been held in Tehran for the past year, as well as the mysterious disappearance of retired Federal Bureau of Investigation agent Robert Levinson in Iran in 2007.
After U.S. officials said Mr. Amiri was free to return home "of his own free will," the State Department said Tuesday the hikers should also "be allowed to act on their own free will and be released immediately and allowed to return to their families."
Tracking Shahram Amiri
- June 2009: Mr. Amiri disappears during a pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia.
- July: Three American hikers are detained by Iranian security forces along the Iran-Iraq border; they are charged with espionage.
- February 2010: Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says that he would release the American hikers in exchange for Iranians detained in the U.S., specifically mentioning Mr. Amiri.
- March: ABC News reports that Mr. Amiri defected to the U.S.
- June: Iranian state media air a video claiming to show Mr. Amiri saying that he was being held against his will in the U.S., though another video that surfaced online contradicted that claim.
- July: Mr. Amiri arrives at the Pakistani Embassy in Washington, seeking to return to Iran. The State Department says that the American hikers should be returned to the U.S.
Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said in a television interview in February that he would release the American hikers in exchange for Iranians detained or abducted in the U.S. He specifically mentioned Mr. Amiri.
While U.S. officials Tuesday consistently linked the cases of the hikers with Mr. Amiri's return to Iran, no official said a swap arrangement had been made.
Families of the hikers, Shane Bauer, Sarah Shourd and Josh Fattal, said Tuesday that they hoped Mr. Amiri's return to Iran could ease the process of getting their children home.
"We hope this bodes well for Sarah, Shane and Josh," said Cindy Hickey, mother of 28-year-old Shane Bauer, in a telephone interview from Pine City, Minn. "We want them home."
The three Americans were detained by Iranian security forces on July 31, 2009, along the Iran-Iraq border. The Iranian government has charged the three with espionage. Their parents said they believed their children were abducted.
In another prominent case, Iran released Iranian-American journalist Roxana Saberi in May 2009, after serving three months of an eight-year sentence for espionage. Less than two months later, the U.S. military released five Iranian diplomats in detention in Iraq for alleged ties to Iran's Revolutionary Guards. Iran and the U.S. said they weren't acting out a swap deal.
Mr. Amiri was in good health when he arrived at the embassy, a Pakistani diplomatic official said Tuesday. Officials there planned to help send him home, the official said.
Iran's Foreign Ministry said Wednesday that Mr. Amiri was on a flight home, traveling through the Gulf nation of Qatar and was expected to arrive in Tehran on early Thursday. A U.S. official confirmed that Amiri left the U.S. Tuesday night, but couldn't provide more details. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the case.
Deputy Iranian Foreign Minister Hassan Qashqavi told state TV that Iran will pursue the case of Mr. Amiri's abduction through legal means.

Baku. 22 July. REPORT.AZ/ Turkish Presidential spokesman made a statement late on Tuesday about the allegations that Turkey supports the self-proclaimed Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS), Report informs citing Turkish media.
"The fact that Turkey is completely against every terrorist organization including Daesh is self explanatory," said the presidential spokesman, using a local acronym for ISIS. "Along with that, there are also those trying to legitimize the PKK terrorist organization," he added.
Commenting further on the fight against ISIS, he said "It is completely false that Turkey has not condemned Daesh terror and that has not carried out military operation against its militants. Turkey listed Daesh as a terrorist organization in October 2013. Since then, more than 1.600 ISIS-linked militants have been deported and more than 15,000 have been denied entry."
Touching upon the terrorist attack that took place in Suruç in southeastern Turkey on Monday which claimed 32 lives and injured 104, he said: "Extensive investigation has been commenced regarding the terrorist attack in Suruç. With those obvious realities about Turkey's stance on terrorist organizations, it is saddening that some politicians try to take advantage of the suicide attack and breed bad blood in the region."

While there have been many changes in the trucking industry, one thing has not changed, according to Rich Ferguson, managing director, Ferguson Partners LLC. “Trucking customers still strive for efficiency. This has not charged,” he said during a presentation at Heavy Duty Aftermarket Week in Dallas, Texas.
He said there are a number of issues that bear watching, including continued consolidation, opportunities in mobile repair, the growth of electronics, the growth of remanufacturing, and the need to continue to invest in technician training.
“There is an electric product revolution going on, and I am not just talking about electric engines,” Ferguson said. “The growth of telematics and the increased speed at which we are getting data are happening concurrently.” On the product side, he said that while today automated manual transmission are only in 19% of Class 8 trucks on the road, they can be found in 80% of vehicles currently being spec’d. There also has been a growth of electric idle-reduction systems.

If the whole Destiny’s Child thing is a bit lightweight for you, here’s a reformation that might be of interest.
As NME report, legendary California hardcore unit Black Flag are set to reform for a major UK show. The band will perform at Kent’s Hevy Fest with their Ron Reyes-fronted 1979-1980 line-up, as heard on the Jealous Again EP.
Reyes joined the band in place of original singer Keith Morris, and was later replaced by Dez Cadena (subsequently swapped for the band’s most iconic frontman, Henry Rollins). The Hevy date will mark the band’s first UK show in over 30 years, and will be their only 2013 performance on these shores.
Formed in 1976, Black Flag released a series of all-time classic hardcore discs – most notably debut LP Damaged – before disbanding in 1986. The group subsequently reunited with Cadena for a host of reunion shows in 2003.
Hevy Fest runs from August 2-4 at Port Lympne Wild Animal Park in Kent. Tickets and further information are available here.

Daily Oracle Card ~ EXPOSED AND REVEALED
Key concepts: healing shame, the impostor syndrome, letting go of self-condemnation, freedom from past unresolved wounds, focusing on self-worth, the underlying beauty in rejection
When you experience shame, you don’t just feel you’ve done something wrong; you feel like you are wrong—fundamentally flawed. Know that life loves you, and the universe doesn’t make junk, only magic! However, many social interactions (especially online) are steeped in distorted, unhealthy ways of expressing pain by shaming.
Here is the way out of this: See shame as the heart-wrenching cry for help that it is. Consider whether you could have been triggered in the outer world by unresolved issues that matched all your inner pain points.
If someone is shaming you, perhaps you have triggered them. How miserable they must be to expend their energy on such toxicity! They are drinking poison, hoping you will get sick. You cannot love someone out of their shame; you can only show compassion for both them and yourself, set a healthy boundary, and refuse to fan the flames.
Look upon shame as an opportunity for growth, evolution, healing, and freedom. With this in mind, can you let go of your attachment to control? Admit that this emotion isn’t something you have power over, and surrender to a Higher Power.
There is a sacred quality to the vulnerability inherent in admitting you can’t do this alone. When you allow yourself to be laid open in this way, you gain a beautiful new perspective. Then the healed shame has the infinite power of the Divine to set you free. Oracles of the & Energies
