2 N.J. teens labeled sex offenders for life after 'horseplay' incidentBy MaryAnn Spoto/The Star-Ledger

Trump Tells The Truth About Alt-Left Violence At EPIC Press Conference; Leaves Leftists 'Literally Shaking'
'Final Warning' To 'White People' Goes Viral On Twitter After Charlottesville Rally
These Videos Show The Alt-Left Violence Trump Talked About During His Epic Press Conference
POLL: 62% Of Americans Believe Confederate Statues Should Remain, Only 27% Disagree
"Where The F*** Are You?!" Antifa Panics Over Being Outnumbered At Charlottesville Rally
SOMERSET COUNTY Call it bullying or call it horseplay. Either way, a state appellate court panel says roughhousing with a sexual connotation by a pair of 14-year-old Somerset County boys was a crime that requires them to register as sex offenders for the rest of their lives.
In a decision handed down Monday, the three-judge panel acknowledged the severity of its decision, but said it was bound to uphold the law.
"We are keenly aware that our decision may have profound lifelong ramifications for these two boys as well as others similarly situated," Judge Jose Fuentes wrote.
One of the boys, whose case went to trial, said he had sat on the faces of a pair of 12-year-old schoolmates with his bare buttocks in November 2008 "cause I thought it was funny and I was trying to get my friends to laugh," he told a family court judge.
But an act is considered criminal sexual contact if it is done for sexual gratification or to degrade or humiliate the victim, and punishable by lifetime registration even for juveniles under Megans Law, which requires a person convicted of a sex crime against a child to notify police of changes of address or employment.

In an effort to cash in on the low-carb craze, food manufacturers have invented a new category of carbohydrates known as "net carbs," which promises to let dieters eat the sweet and creamy foods they crave without suffering the carb consequences. It basically comes down to how quickly your body is able to process the carb. Other carbohydrates, such as the fiber found in whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, move slowly through the digestive system, and much of it isn't digested at all (insoluble fiber).

How does Norfolk County Council know that cost of raising A1101 Welney Wash road is prohibitive?
PUBLISHED: 16:30 31 January 2013 | UPDATED: 16:30 31 January 2013
WITH regard to your article on Welney Wash (January 25).
If Mr Rands of Norfolk County Council has not looked at the cost of raising a causeway recently, how does he know that the cost is likely to be prohibitive?
In my experience of building similar structures in East Africa, a causeway built of low grade granular material protected with stone, together with a series of Armco-type culverts to allow the flood water to flow freely, would solve the problem.
I realise that the cost of the structure has to be balanced against the cost and inconvenience of having to make considerable detours.
For a main road to be out of use for more than 10 per cent of the year in this day and age is not acceptable.

On Tuesday, April 13th of 2021, the above referred law that establishes new requirements for transparency and strengthens the responsibilities of market agents, regulates the social security advice and other matters indicated therein, was published in the Official Gazette (hereinafter, the “New Law”).
Article 9° of the New Law modified Law No. 18,010 in many matters, being the most relevant the ones below indicated:
Article 9° of the New Law incorporates a new second subparagraph to article 16 of Law No. 18,010 (below highlighted), whose text is modified as follows:
“Article 16.- The borrower of a money credit operation that delays the fulfillment of its obligation, owes current (average banking) interests as of the date of said delay and at the rates in force during such delay, unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties thereof or if a higher interest has been legally established.
The default interest above mentioned cannot be charged over any amount jointly with, or in addition to, any other interest. In addition, default interest may only be charged on that part of the capital that is effectively overdue and may not be capitalized for the calculation of interest of any kind”.
The incorporation of the aforementioned subparagraph to the bill of law occurred when this bill was being discussed in the corresponding Mixed Commission in Congress, and, once it was incorporated to the bill, was widely reported as a legal provision that was supposed to end with the compounding of regular interests not paid when due (legal compounding –anatocismo legal- established in the third subparagraph of article 9 of Law No. 18,010).
In the context of a money credit operation, the nature of the default interest corresponds to a legal or conventional valuation, as appropriate (see first subparagraph of article 16 herein quoted) of the damages caused to the creditor of a credit operation of money for the default (which in this case is identified with the delay) of the debtor in the payment of principal or interest.
Considering that the law must be construed adopting an objective criterion (that is, seeking its proper meaning), we believe that it cannot be argued that through the aforementioned subparagraph there has been a tacit derogation of the third subparagraph of Article 9 of Law No. 18,010. Notwithstanding this, we note that the true meaning and scope of this provision must be established by the relevant authorities.
Other interpretative provisions regarding interests
In addition to the rule just mentioned, Article 9 of the New Law incorporates new subparagraphs to Articles 6 and 10 of Law 18,010, whose effect is to emphasize that interest only can be charged (that is, interest only accrues) on the outstanding principal, not on repaid principal.
Finally, Article 9 of the New Law incorporates into Law No. 18,010 a new Article 19 ter, which regulates the fees charged by the entities supervised by the Financial Market Commission (“CMF”) and/or subject to its control by virtue of Article 31 of Law No. 18,010 (institutions that place funds through massive money credit operations), jointly the “Supervised Entities”, in the money credit operations that they grant, which must correspond to compensation for services actually and effectively rendered.
On the other hand, article 19 ter establishes that the CMF must issue a general rule, within the 12 months following April 13, 2021, by which it will determine:
- the requirements, rules and conditions that the fees charged by the Supervised Entities under money credit operations must meet; and
- objective criteria for determining such fees, which must be calculated based on the cost of providing the service.
Compliance with this regulation will be of utmost importance for the Supervised Entities, since any fees that do not comply with them will be considered as interest and, as known, under Law No. 18,010 interest is subject to the maximum conventional rate’s value applicable according to the term and amount of the relevant obligation.

August 19, 2011- The computer giant is rumored to being getting ready to launch the iPad 3 in early 2012. The big difference in the new iPad will be the quality of the display. The new display is said to have doubled the amount of resolution of the iPad 2.
The dimensions (9.7 inch screen) will remain the same but the resolution will increase to 1536 x 2,048. Insiders have said that Apple has already lined up the component suppliers for the new iPad and will start production as early as October with a pre order by Apple of over 1.5 million to be shipped by the end of 2011.
In the second quarter of 2010 Apple set the standard for the tablet in the industry with the iPad launching and then launched iPad 2 less than 12 months later. Ipad 2 improved certain aspects of the first iPad but did not adjust the display resolution significantly and that has been a constant complaint about the unit.
Apple still holds a strong grip over the tablet market with over an 80% share but Android based tablets are taking bits and pieces out of Apple’s share. Even though Apple has a comfortable market share lead, they are making changes to the new iPad since its competitors are ramping up and getting ready to launch even more sophisticated products.

The Washington-based Snoqualmie tribal casino is the first operator in the state to launch a sportsbook as the NFL season kicks off.
The move to allow sports betting at tribal casinos was passed through the state’s legislature with a bipartisan supermajority last year.
Governor Jay Inslee signed the bill into law in March 2020, making sports gambling a reality in Washington State.
As of now, eight other tribes have received approval from the Interior Department and will begin to offer sports betting in the upcoming weeks and months.
Seven other Washington State tribes are also awaiting approval for their revised tribal compacts.
Rebecca George, Executive Director of the Washington Indian Gaming Association (WIGA), issued the following statement in response to the launch: “Today’s commencement of sports betting at the Snoqualmie tribe’s casino marks an important milestone in the progress that Washington State’s tribes have made in regaining their self-reliance.
“Our tribes are justifiably proud of our track record of allowing carefully regulated gaming at our casinos. Our commitment is that we will conduct our sports betting operations with the same care and focus on fairness.”
Tribal governments in Washington rely on gaming revenue for essential government services, allowing for self-sufficiency.
Unlike commercial gaming, tribal government gaming pays for critical housing, healthcare, education, natural resources and jobs.
“The launch of sports betting is going to provide a real boost for tribal communities that are still working to recover from the tough impacts of Covid shutdowns, and the positive benefits will extend well beyond tribal communities themselves,” continued George.
“Tribal gaming revenues not only fund critical services for long-underserved tribal communities, those revenues also bolster the overall economies of communities across Washington State.”

|About the Book|
Some will be shocked to find out that the United States and Ho Chi Minh, our nemesis for much of the Vietnam War, were once allies. Indeed, during the last year of World War II, American spies in Indochina found themselves working closely with Ho ChiMoreSome will be shocked to find out that the United States and Ho Chi Minh, our nemesis for much of the Vietnam War, were once allies. Indeed, during the last year of World War II, American spies in Indochina found themselves working closely with Ho Chi Minh and other anti-colonial factions--compelled by circumstances to fight together against the Japanese. Dixee Bartholomew-Feis reveals how this relationship emerged and operated and how it impacted Vietnams struggle for independence.The men of General William Donovans newly-formed Office of Strategic Services closely collaborated with communist groups in both Europe and Asia against the Axis enemies. In Vietnam, this meant that OSS officers worked with Ho Chi Minh and the Viet Minh, whose ultimate aim was to rid the region of all imperialist powers, not just the Japanese. Ho, for his part, did whatever he could to encourage the OSSs negative view of the French, who were desperate to regain their colony. Revealing details not previously known about their covert operations, Bartholomew-Feis chronicles the exploits of these allies as they developed their network of informants, sabotaged the Japanese occupations infrastructure, conducted guerrilla operations, and searched for downed American fliers and Allied POWs.Although the OSS did not bring Ho Chi Minh to power, Bartholomew-Feis shows that its apparent support for the Viet Minh played a significant symbolic role in helping them fill the power vacuum left in the wake of Japans surrender. Her study also hints that, had America continued to champion the anti-colonials and their quest for independence, rather than caving in to the French, we might have been spared our long and very lethal war in Vietnam.Based partly on interviews with surviving OSS agents who served in Vietnam, Bartholomew-Feiss engaging narrative and compelling insights speak to the yearnings of an oppressed people--and remind us that history does indeed make strange bedfellows.

Speaking about how this win made her feel, she stated "I was so nervous, I just wanted to cry". Not long after, Dominguez was still astonished by the huge amount of money that was now hers and decided to pursue another potential win, she bought just one $5 Lucky Fortune ticket from Valero gas station and landed the top prize of $100,000 with the California Lottery!

Every Wednesday, CCEA joins teachers across the state of Florida in a visible show of support for our neighborhood public schools. We wear RED for Public Ed because we know all too well the compromises that have to be made --and the impact of those compromises on our students-- when funding for our schools is inadequate or bogged down in mandates. We wear red to call attention to the solvable problems in education. Recruiting and Retaining teachers can't be solved with flawed accountability systems. With 4,961 teacher vacancies in K12 classrooms across Florida at the start of the 2021-2022 school year, Florida schools aren't failing--FUNDING is FAILING Florida's schools!
Fund Our Future, Citrus
As a statewide teacher shortage grows, our professional association is advocating for meaningful changes in state and local policies that directly impact our classrooms. Fund Our Future is an ongoing campaign to recruit and retain teachers, promote student success, and invest in our neighborhood public schools. Every student deserves to have a highly-qualified teacher, but even here in Citrus County, the 2021-22 school year began with 50 posted instructional vacancies and 29 posted support vacancies. Our students need opportunities to learn and grow to their greatest potential, yet flawed systems of accountability lead to teaching to the test. Together, we are speaking up and speaking out for our neighborhood public schools -- and the students educated in them!
9 out of 10 students—over 48 million—attend a public school. Public schools welcome every child—regardless of ability, race, religion, wealth, language, country of origin or needs.

Over the next few months this multi-part series will take a deep dive into the ways that Florida’s education policies have led to a full-scale crisis in the teaching profession.
Every student in Florida deserves to be in a classroom with a certified, highly-qualified, and dedicated teacher. Students deserve schools with full-time media specialists and schools that are staffed with more counselors and nurses than security guards. Florida’s students deserve the very best. Currently, Florida’s politicians are failing Florida’s future.

As every successful business knows, a respected and well looked-after employee is likely to be more motivated and loyal, and therefore a more valuable member of the team.
However, as there are so many employee benefit packages on the market, how do you know which one is best suited to your Company’s needs? Our team at Perredon are here to provide objective and expert advice on employee benefits in this increasingly complex domain. It is essential to ensure that the scheme is targeted correctly and therefore successful in helping to recruit and retain quality people.
There is absolutely no point in spending money if the benefit package is not appreciated.
We understand that many companies have constantly changing and/or limited budgets and therefore feel it is imperative to deliver cost-effective solutions. Benefits should be regularly reviewed to take advantage of new developments and improved terms offered by providers who are keen to compete for business.
So, whether you are looking to implement a completely new range of employee benefits, or simply review your existing arrangements, we can help at every stage, from researching the best products on the market, to successfully implementing them within your establishment.
So what employee benefits are on offer?
Stakeholder pension legislation means that businesses with five or more employees must, by law, provide their employees access to a pension plan that falls within the regulations.

Group life assurance
Group critical illness insurance

A bride’s cleaning hack is the latest to go viral after she revealed how she saved a whopping £315 on scrubbing her wedding dress.
The woman was quoted hundreds of pounds by a dry cleaner on getting rid of the dust, grass marks and goose poo left on her gown following the big day.
Writing in a Facebook group, called Mums Who Clean, the Australian woman recalled how her “epic, large flouncy gown” got messy after the reception.
But instead of forking a fortune on getting her dress professionally cleaned, the woman decided to tackle the stains herself.
She then shared before and after pictures of the dress, where she used a £1.50 stain remover from Aldi.
The woman said: “I got married five years ago and haven’t been able to reconcile parting with the $600 (around £315) it will cost to professionally clean.”
She decided to use Sard Wonder Stick, costing $5 (£2.60) and Aldi Di-San Soaker, which was only $3.75 (£1.50).
In a bid to get out the stubborn stains, the woman carefully sprayed and scrubbed each of the marks.
Then she placed the wedding dress in the washing machine on a handwash cycle and was completely mind-blown by the results.
She continued: “There are still a small amount of black marks on the bottom but I decided to do this late in the day and didn’t leave it to soak very long.
“The only issue was some very minor damage to a mesh covering over the corset back from the claws of the crystals but they already had a bit of damage so no drama there.”
While the Sard product can be bought in the UK, sadly the Aldi cleaner cannot, but the Vanish Oxi Action Stain Remover contains the same “oxi action” formula that gets rid of stains.
The woman added that she was “very pleased” with the transformation, and many members praised her for getting the dressing looking “brand new”.
One said: “Thanks for sharing! I’ve been wanting to do this myself for the last six years.”
Another added: “I washed mine in the bath and Martha’s wool wash.”
A former dry cleaner told her: “Remember to store it in a box lined with acid free tissue paper. That will help it stay like that.”

Kevin Cowley is a 50-year-old driving examiner, a former Metropolitan police officer and a survivor of the Hillsborough disaster. He was in pen three on 15 April 1989, where many of the 97 Liverpool fans were unlawfully killed at the FA Cup semi-final. On Saturday he attended the Champions League final between Jürgen Klopp’s team and Real Madrid at the Stade de France. His experience of Uefa’s showpiece event reopened a 33-year-old trauma.
“I’m in pieces again,” said Cowley. His voice, breaking with emotion, testifies to that. “It took me years to get over Hillsborough and I feel like I’ve just relived Hillsborough again. Saturday was horrendous. I want to vocalise this because I spent so many years bottling up Hillsborough and that did so much to me that I have to do something this time. I want to talk. ”
Cowley purchased a £ 125 ticket for the final through Liverpool. At 6.15pm on Saturday, two-and-three-quarter hours before the scheduled kick-off, he made his way to the stadium with a friend. “There was already a massive buildup of Liverpool fans trying to get to the ground,” he says. “We thought they must have put something in place to check tickets and bags, as they did in Madrid [for the 2019 Champions League final].
“We arrived at an underpass where the police kettled everybody. It was getting tighter and tighter. I hate crowds, I can’t do them. I have a mechanism for Anfield where I won’t get in that position. I had to climb over a fence because it was getting so tight, along with people of all ages. Then we came to another underpass where the police had parked vans across the road. The sheer weight of people meant I was forced against the bonnet of a police van. ”
Steve Rotheram is the Liverpool City Region Mayor. He was also at Hillsborough and was also in Paris on Saturday, having received a ticket from Uefa. He also had to climb a fence on his way up to the stadium. “I had my phone, money, debit cards, ID and match ticket stolen,” says the former MP for Liverpool Walton. “We were directed down a road and after about 400 yards there were two riot vans blocking the way.
“Riot police told us to climb over a fence. I had my jacket in two hands but had to release it from one hand to climb over the fence, and as I was pulling my coat over these dippers went into my pocket. It was literally a second. These were professional gangs. They knew it was rich pickings for them and lots of people got their phones and wallets taken.
“I walked over to the police to tell them I’d had everything stolen and one of them said: ‘Welcome to Paris.’ Some Liverpool fans shouted to say: “He’s our mayor.” Two French lads who had come over to help translated to the gendarme, who were nonplussed until one of the lads Googled me and showed it to a gendarme. He immediately took me through to get a duplicate ticket. ”
Once inside the VIP section of the stadium Rotheram asked Gianni Infantino, the president of Fifa, and former French president Nicolas Sarkozy to do something about the chaos outside, where fans were being teargassed by police. Infantino was “amenable” but allegedly said “it was not Fifa’s jurisdiction”. Sarkozy was moved on.
Rotheram then spotted Uefa’s president, Aleksander Ceferin. “I politely introduced myself and explained what I’d witnessed and the concerns I had,” he explains. “He seemed oblivious to it. He said to me: ‘We’ve only had three months to organize this, we’ve killed ourselves to get this game on.’ To which I replied: ‘I’m more concerned that people aren’t killed outside’. He indicated that I was being disrespectful. I just could not take my seat and watch the game in the end. I was just devastated at what could have happened outside. ”
Cowley was outside for approximately two hours before gaining access. His ticket was for turnstile Y but, with the queue along a fence not moving, he went to turnstile X. “It was like a war zone,” he says. “The crash barriers were on the floor, there was a massive rush on the turnstile by local lads, who were climbing over the fencing and having a full-scale fight on the other side with the stewards and police. There was a lad in a wheelchair who everyone tried to form a bubble around. I kept getting pushed into him and kept apologizing.
“I was thinking: ‘It’s happening all over again.’ It was the same thing [as Hillsborough]. I told my mate I was going to walk away but we got to the turnstile, which kept blinking red as if it wasn’t working. I put my ticket through and it did not register. The steward said: ‘Just go through.’ So I walked through and this burly steward grabbed me. He was telling me to get out and come back in through Y. Then two police officers came over and started pushing me with their shields. I know what they are trying to do, they are trying to provoke a response. I told them I was a former policeman. The two of them started talking and eventually decided to let me go. ”
A big screen in the stadium blamed the “late arrival of fans” for the delayed kick-off. On Monday, French authorities claimed counterfeit tickets on “an industrial scale” were responsible. Neither Cowley nor Rotheram saw any of the supposed “30,000-40,000” fans with counterfeit tickets but both recognized the attempt by authorities to shift the blame on to fans, as was the case with Hillsborough.
“Every time I read the narrative that they are putting out there it just hits me between the eyes with Hillsborough all over again,” says Cowley. “The only thing I take any solace in is the fact that what happened this time was viewed by the world press and we’ve got social media and cameras, so they can not get away with what they are trying to spin. But every time I read this narrative it is like someone is picking at a scab. The French authorities are trying the same thing. It’s revisiting it all again. ”
Rotheram, speaking on the phone he was lent by a member of Liverpool’s staff on Saturday, says: “We need to collect a large body of evidence, video recordings and witness testimony.”
He had called for an independent investigation before Uefa announced on Monday night that it had commissioned one. “When somebody is seriously injured or killed in the future, then we can point back to a time like this when everybody should have stuck together to ensure that people are safe at a sporting event,” he says. “Hopefully if we have an independent analysis they will not be able to scapegoat Liverpool fans or abdicate responsibility.”

James Scott Bell recently posted a blog called Don’t Ever Mail It In where he wrote about the attitude that we’ve reached a certain point in our writing where we don’t have to improve.
What struck me most is his definition of a real writer. It’s someone who honors the craft and never settles.
In this blog, I’m going to expand on a couple of his points.
One is something every writer has heard before. My paraphrase is great writers are great readers. And great writers don’t just stick to their genre. They read widely, exploring how other writers apply the craft.
We need to be intentional about studying the craft. I’m committing to doing something every week. Will you join me?
I’m going to focus on specific areas of the craft to address my writing needs.
Not sure where to begin? Ask your critique partners for input. I know my partners see needs in areas where I think I’m fine. And I’m blessed they are honest enough to tell me in constructive ways.
Bell identifies seven critical success factors in the craft:
Meaning or theme
I would add an eighth: the setting or story world.
I see theme as my weakest area. My writing partners may have a different perspective and I look forward to their suggestions.
Following Bell’s advice, I’m going to develop a six-week self-study program for this area.
First, I’ll read books and articles.
Second, if there’s a conference coming up, I’ll look to see if it offers classes in the area of theme. If not, I’ll explore podcast and webinars and blogs.
Third, I’ll practice, practice, practice.
Finally, I’ll get feedback from others.
With some planning, I could develop a strategy to raise the level of each of these eight areas over the course of the next year following this format.
This system of learning can also be applied to being intentional about the business of writing.
Some of the critical factors in this area are:
Imagine developing a self-study program for each of these.
What critical factors of the craft of writing and the business of writing are you weakest at?
What would prevent you from developing a plan to address them? How could you overcome these obstacles?
What other factors would you add to those already listed here?

ADRIAN - George Fanning, chairman of the Sylvania Township trustees, pleaded guilty yesterday to a misdemeanor fraud charge for taking a $1,250 antique item from a Michigan antique mall.
Blissfield police Officer Robert Trevino arrested Mr. Fanning, 65, of 4725 North Crestridge Rd., April 3 after the theft from Adrian's Blissfield Antique Mall.
Originally charged with a felony, Mr. Fanning pleaded guilty to second-degree retail fraud in Lenawee County District Court in a plea bargain, officials said. The crime is punishable by a maximum of a year in jail.
Mr. Fanning remains free on bond until his June 4 sentencing. He would not comment, and his attorney, Dale Smith, could not be reached for comment.
“He was at the store that sells antiques,” assistant Lenawee County prosecutor Doug Hartung said. “The storekeeper saw him steal the item.”
Police found the item in Mr. Fanning's truck, officials said.
The blue and white item, which looks like a train, is seven inches long and has Greyhound Lines Bus written on it. Authorities allowed the plea because Mr. Fanning, who began his term in 1998, does not have a previous record, and the storekeeper was agreeable, Mr. Hartung said.
Trustees Dick Moses and Dock Treece spoke with Mr. Fanning yesterday. “I'm not sure what it means for the township,” Mr. Moses said. “I feel very bad that something like this has happened. ... I think George will do whatever is best for the community and the township.”
Mr. Treece does not know whether Mr. Fanning should step down, but he said he will not request his resignation.
“I'm astounded,” Mr. Treece said yesterday. “I always found him to be a good, upstanding, do-the-right-thing-type of guy..”
If Mr. Fanning resigns, Mr. Treece and Mr. Moses would pick a replacement.

With the deal wrapped up, Disney will take over ownership of 20th Century Fox film and TV studio, cable networks FX, Fxx and National Geographic, and certain cable and international television assets. Disney also acquires Fox’s 30 percent stake in Hulu, giving it majority control. The new assets should strengthen Disney’s position as a content behemoth, especially as it launches Disney+ later this year, its own streaming competitor to Netflix.
“This is an extraordinary and historic moment for us–one that will create significant long-term value for our company and our shareholders,” Disney CEO Bob Iger said. “Combining Disney’s and 21st Century Fox’s wealth of creative content and proven talent creates the preeminent global entertainment company, well positioned to lead in an incredibly dynamic and transformative era.”


How your bass is set up will make a lot of difference to how easily it can be played or in fact whether it can be played in tune at all. A new or second hand bass bought from a reputable shop should come ready set-up but this may not be the case with an instrument bought over the internet. Most second hand instruments will have been set up properly at some point by or for the previous owner but over time things need adjusting and this may not have been done.
bass strings fortunately do not usually requiring changing anything like as frequently as those on guitars, generally bass strings are however considerably more expensive. New strings have a much livelier sound that some like but does not suit all tastes. Some bassist leave strings in place for years as they like the more rounded less twangy sound. This can also be acheived to some extent by using flat wound rather than round wound strings.
If a guitar has been left unplayed for a long time it is possible for strings to rust. If this has happened then they will definitely need to be replaced.
In theory on a bass guitar strings of equal length produce different frequencies due to increasing thickness and specific tension created by the tuners. This works perfectly for open strings but can cause an issue when notes are fretted particularly as notes get higher. If a bass is correctly set up the harmonic at the twelfth fret will be exactly an octave above the open string and exactly the same as the note achieved when a finger is placed on the fingerboard at that position. Unfortunately due to the physics of sound generation this will not be the case if the part of the strings free to vibrate are all the same length. Thus is why most bass guitars allow you to fine tune the length of the string to correct this, that is why the bridge saddles can be moved backwards and forwards.
This is the distance between the top of the frets and the bottom of the strings. Action is usually lowest at the top end by the nut and highest at the bottom of the neck towards the bridge but the aim of a good set-up is to make this difference as small as possible.
If the action is too high the bass will be hard to play and intonation will be a big problem as strings are being pushed so far as they are played. If the action is too low the strings will vibrate against the top of the frets or even worse the pickups, creating buzzing. Ideally the action should be set as low as possible without the strings buzzing when any fret is fingered though some prefer a higher action and so personal preference comes into play.
Three factors impact on the action, the nut, the bridge and the truss rod. The bridge controls the height at the end of the body and this can usually be adjusted by turning individuals screws for each string. The truss rod acts to straighten the neck against the pull of the strings, it is relatively easy to adjust but care should be taken with small incremental adjustments as it is possible to over do it and break the neck. Adjustment is generally by Allen Key and access is gained at the top or the bottom of the fingerboard often by removing a small cover with three or four little screws. The nut is not easily adjustable, it can be removed and sanded down but this is a job best performed by those with experience.

Google agreed to pay $8.5 million to a handful of nonprofits in a federal U.S. class-action settlement that claimed the search engine violated user privacy, according to MediaPost.
The lawsuit was brought about in 2010 by a plaintiff who claimed Google was disclosing sensitive and personal information to third parties when she searched for her own name and her family members’ names in the search engine, and then clicked on links within the search results.
She argued that by clicking on those links, Google disclosed personal information when it transferred data about her queries (her name and family members’ names) within the referrer headers.
The referrer header is the URL of the web page the user was on before visiting another site. It can contain information about where the user came from and what queries they used to find a website.
Google defended itself by saying the plaintiff couldn’t show she was injured by the alleged data leakage. But the plaintiff’s lawyer stated the purpose of the lawsuit was to prove that users don’t know what personal information is being transmitted to whom and under what circumstances when using Google’s search engine.
What that meant for search data was this: websites visited from Google’s organic search results still knew the user came from Google, but they didn’t receive information about each individual query. Hence the surge of “not provided” data many site owners now see in Google Analytics.
MediaPost reported the recipients of the $8.5 million settlement would include the World Privacy Forum; Chicago-Kent’s Center for Information, Society, and Policy; Harvard Law’s Berkman Center for Internet and Society; and Stanford Law’s Center for Internet and Society.


Heavy metal band Iron Maiden's Ed Force One plane has been damaged in an airport crash which left two people injured.
The jet was tethered to a tow truck to be taken for refuelling in Santiago, Chile, when the steering pin - part of the mechanism that connects the ground tug to the aircraft - seemingly fell out.
On making a turn, the aircraft collided with the ground tug, badly damaging the undercarriage and two of the aircraft's engines, as well as injuring two ground tug operators, both of whom have been taken to hospital.
In a statement on the British band's website, they said: "We hope of course that they make a full and speedy recovery and we will be closely monitoring their progress.
"The flight engineers are on site and evaluating the damage, but their initial report is that the engines have suffered large damage and will require an extended period of maintenance and possibly two new engines."
The band said they were in the process of making contingency plans to get to their show in Cordoba, Argentina, with band, crew and equipment intact.
"Fortunately the 20 tons of equipment had not been loaded onto Ed Force One at the time of the accident, and none of the band or our road crew were on board or near the airport.
"Although this is tragic for our beautiful plane we do not expect this to affect our concert schedule including the next two shows in Cordoba and Buenos Aires.
"And we hope to find a new Ed Force One to continue this adventure with us in the near future. We will keep everyone updated when we know more, so keep checking only on this site for official news."
The successful band, formed in 1975, will close Download Festival 2016 in Leicestershire on June 12.
They were set to arrive in the UK in the Boeing 747 piloted by lead singer Bruce Dickinson.
A commercial airline pilot and established aviation entrepreneur, Dickinson has been their captain as they visit 35 countries in Ed Force One - which has carried the band, stage production and equipment during their The Book Of Souls World Tour.
