Do we have a good one for you today – the new device we are featuring is the all-new Asus ZenFone 2 (ZE551ML) sporting a 5.5-inch QHD display with 4GB of RAM and an Intel Z3580 quad-core processor clocked at 2.3GHz. Asus has always been known for their affordable pricing and the ZenFone 2 is no exception. The amount of specifications and features Asus crammed into a smartphone that costs only $299 is almost unbelievable and Asus is proudly pushing it as their new flagship smartphone.
Here, we are stacking it up against the Motorola Nexus 6, the new HTC One M9, the new LG G4 and the new Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge. The ZenFone 2 is going up against some heavy competition, the best of the best that these other manufacturers have produced so far this year, although the Nexus 6 was available in November 2014. Let us take a closer look at their specifications and see just where the Asus ZenFone 2 fits in this pecking order. The LG G4 and the Galaxy S6 Edge, are leaders of this pack, while the Nexus 6 and One M9 are great smartphones, each with their own deficiencies. The Nexus 6 has last year’s processor and the One M9 is still using a FHD display technology.
Please take a deliberate look at the detailed Specifications Comparison chart below and here you will see just how these five devices stack up against one another – click on the “View Full Comparison” link at the end of the chart to expand the details. After that, we will look at a few different areas of the devices in greater detail and point out some pros and cons. From all of this information we can draw some conclusions based on specs and execution of design and functions.
The new Asus ZenFone 2 features a 5.5-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels and 403 pixels-per-inch (PPI) and is not a bad IPS panel, although there are better ones out there…on a much more expensive device. The ZenFone 2 has a 72-percent screen-to-body ratio to give you a full 5.5-inch display in a reasonably sized device. The ZenFone measures in at 152.5 x 77.2 x 10.9 mm and weighs in at 170 grams and uses a metallic looking back that is actually plastic and curved nicely for a nice grip.
Motorola made Google Nexus 6 using an AMOLED 5.96-inch QHD display with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels and 493 PPI. The Nexus 6 is a large device, even with its small bezels and dual front-facing speakers, it measures in at 159.3 x 83 x 10.1mm and weighing a full 184 grams. It uses a metal frame and a curved leather backing for a comfortable fit in your hand.
The HTC One M9 also uses the Super LCD3 FHD technology in a 5-inch display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels with 441 PPI. The One M9 has as small bezels as you can expect given the room for its dual front-facing stereo speakers with BoomSound. It measures in at 144.6 x 69.7 x 9.6mm weighing in at 157 grams. The HTC One series is a full metal body that also curves nicely and is comfortable to hold.
LG was the first company to mass-produce the QHD display and used it on their LG G3 in 2014. Now in 2015, their new LG G4 uses an improved version of their 5.5-inch QHD IPS LCD display with some of the smallest bezels on a smartphone with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels and 538 PPI. The device measures 148.9 x 76.1 x 6.3-9.8mm, because the device is curved that makes it more comfortable to hold and weighs in at 155 gram. The LG G4 is like the ZenFone 2 with a plastic body that has a metallic look to it.
The Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge has a 5.1-inch QHD Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels with 577 PPI. The Galaxy S6 Edge has both sides of its display curved down, giving it virtually no side bezels, and although the curved sides do offer a few functions and make it easy to swipe in from the left or right side, it is mostly cool looking. The device measures 142.1 x 70.1 x 7mm and weighs in at 132 grams and is made from a solid metal frame, softly rounded, with Gorilla Glass 4 on the back.
All of the new flagship model ZenFone 2 smartphones use the 64-bit Intel Atom processor – the U.S. flagship model uses the Z3580 (‘Moorefield’) processor, accompanied by Intel’s LTE-Advanced XMM 7260 modem for ultra-fast and reliable 4G/LTE cellular speeds and connectivity. The processor is coupled with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage with room to expand another 64GB via a microSD card.
The Nexus 6 uses the old and reliable 32-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon quad-core processor clocked at 2.7GHz. All models come with 3GB of RAM with either 32GB or 64GB of internal memory. There is no room for expansion of any sort in the Nexus 6.
The HTC One M9 packs the newest 64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 octa-core processor with four cores running at 1.5GHz and the other four cores clocked at 2.0GHz. The One M9 comes with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage with a microSD card slot to add an additional 128GB of memory.
LG made a somewhat bold move and left out the more powerful Snapdragon 810 and instead decided to go with Qualcomm’s 64-bit Snapdragon 808 hexa-core processor with four cores clocked at 1.44GHz and two cores clocked at 1.82GHz. All One M9s come with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage, expandable by 128GB via a microSD card.
Samsung really took a bold move this year with their flagship Galaxy S6 series by bypassing the entire Snapdragon processor line and deciding to use their homegrown 64-bit Exynos 7420 octa-core processor with four cores clocked at 1.5GHz and four cores clocked at 2.1GHz. This is the first processor to use the 14nm technology – smaller, faster, less heat and less drain on the battery. This new processor is working with 3GB of new DDR4 RAM (faster) and a choice of Samsung’s new, improved and faster UFS 2.0 Flash memory in 32GB, 64GB or 128GB configurations – there is no room for expansion.
For its main camera, the ZenFone 2 uses their 13MP PixelMaster camera with autofocus and a dual-tone LED flash, as well as a large f/2.0 wide-aperture lens with “zero shutter-lag.” Other features, include a Low Light mode, a Backlight (Super HDR) mode, and Super Resolution mode, to ensure good photos even in dimly lit situations – something that our review confirms…it is an all-around good camera. The ZenFone 2 also packs a large 5MP front-facing camera (FFC) for great social selfies and video chats.
Nexus devices were never known for their excellence in picture taking, however, the Nexus 6 actually has a decent main camera this time around with a 13MP sensor, autofocus, a dual-LED flash ring that literary circles around the lens. It is also packing OIS and you should get some great photos, although it uses a rather rudimentary 2MP FFC for selfies and video chatting.
The HTC One M9 totally revamped their camera area from the Duo camera era found on its predecessor, the One M8. HTC put in a large 20MP sensor, added autofocus and a dual-tone flash…still no OIS. They used some of their 4MP UltraPixel lenses for the FFC which should allow for very good social media selfies and video chatting.
If the Galaxy S6 Edge’s camera is arguably the best camera on a smartphone, the camera on the LG G4 is why some would argue with you. LG took last year’s LG G3 camera and improved upon it once again. It comes with a new 16MP sensor, laser autofocus for quick and precise focuses, an LED flash, OIS+ and a wide f/1.8 aperture. To finish off the area, they included a huge 8MP FFC for some of the best selfies and video chats around. If that was not enough, LG has some great photo software bundled in the device with an exceptionally in-depth Professional Mode.
The Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge has arguably one of the best cameras on a smartphone – it is a 16MP sensor with autofocus, LED flash, Live HDR shots, a wide f/1.9 aperture, OIS and can be ready to snap a picture in less than one second. It has nicely redesigned UI and software options for quick shots as well as a Pro Mode for those that like to adjust their shots manually. The Galaxy S6 Edge also comes with a large 5MP, wide angle and wide f/1.9 aperture FFC for terrific group selfies or office video chats.
The new ZenFone 2 comes with a non-removable 3000mAh battery that provides more than enough power to get through the day – something our review verified. They also provided a system app that automatically detects when apps have gone rogue or are unnecessarily draining your battery. It also features ‘BoostMaster’ fast-charge technology that will give you a 60-percent charge in only 40 minutes.
The Nexus 6 comes with a large, non-removable 3220mAh battery that will certainly get you through the day. It comes with Motorola’s Turbo Charger in the box that will allow you to get up to 6 hours of usage with only a 15-minute charge. The Nexus 6 also has Qi wireless charging built-in, allowing you lay it down on your charging pad in-between uses.
The HTC One M9 comes with a non-removable 2840mAh sized battery that takes advantage of Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 2.0 feature. This allows the user to charge their battery up to 60-percent in only 30 minutes.
The LG G4 is the only one of the group that comes with a removable battery – a 3000mAh, in this case. It too, can now take advantage of the Quick Charge 2.0 feature and the LG G4 also offers optional Qi-enabled wireless charging with the purchase of a special back.
The Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge comes with a non-removable 2600mAh battery that is wireless charging ready for both PMA and Qi standards, so there is nothing additional to purchase. The Galaxy S6 Edge also comes with a special charger that uses Samsung’s Adaptive Fast Charging that allows you to fully charge a dead phone in under two hours.
The Asus ZenFone 2 has a great new design with a curved case that tapers to only 0.15 of an inch at the edges. The volume controls are conveniently on the back of the device (ala LG G4), although the power button is awkwardly placed on the top. The ZenFone 2 comes in four colors according to their release – Osmium Black, Sheer Gold, Glacier Gray and Glamour Red. The ASUS ZenFone 2 will be available from May 19th, 2015, costing $199 for the 2GB RAM/1.8GHz version with 16GB storage and an Intel Atom Z3560 processor, or $299 for the 4GB RAM/2.3GHz version with 64GB storage, an Intel Atom Z3580 processor, a BoostMaster charger and running Android 5.0 Lollipop. It will be available to order from Amazon.com, B&H, Groupon.com and NewEgg.com in the US and NewEgg.ca, NCIX.com, Canada Computer and Memory Express in Canada.
The Nexus 6 offers a full metal frame, water resistant nano-coating and dual front-facing stereo speakers. It is running the only true vanilla version of Android Lollipop in this group and will receive software upgrades faster than any other device. It is available on all major US Carriers for $199 (down from $249) on a two-year contract or $649 off-contract in the Google Play Store, with your color choices of Midnight Blue or Cloud White.
The HTC One M9 comes with the best set of speakers on any smartphone – a front facing pair of stereo speakers that offer up HTC’s incredible BoomSound. It is also the only one of this group offering a full-metal exterior that looks great, but has been practically the same the past three years, although HTC did restyle the edges with a slight lip all around for a better grip of the device. It too, has a built-in IR Blaster. The One M9 comes in Gunmetal Gray, Amber Gold, Silver/Rose Gold and Gold/Pink. It is running Android 5.0 Lollipop and pricing is $200 on a two-year contract and about $600 off contract.
The LG G4 does come with a built-in IR Blaster, with its on/off and volume controls placed on the back of the device. The LG G4 comes in a variety of colors, both in the metallic finished backs as well as a genuine leather back with stitching. It will cost you about $200 on contract and about $650 off-contract for the metallic look and $700 for the leather back.
The Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge is the only device here with a fingerprint sensor (PayPal) approved, and incorporates Samsung Pay. It also sports a heart rate sensor, Oxygen saturation sensor and a built-in IR Blaster. The S6 Edge comes in White Pearl, Black Sapphire, Gold Platinum and an exclusive Green Emerald (Blue Topaz is the exclusive Galaxy S6 color) and will cost you $300 on a two-year contract and about $750 off-contract.
So there you have the new Asus ZenFone 2 and its current competition. Everybody will have their own opinion about which is the best device…certainly the ZenFone does not have the specs of the LG G4 or Galaxy S6 Edge, but they also cost over twice as much. The ZenFone 2 is a device worthy of a serious look, especially with the specs it possesses at its price point. Where else will you find a 5.5-inch FHD display with a 64-bit Intel Atom Z3580 quad-core processor, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage with a microSD slot for expansion, a 13MP main camera and a 5MP FFC with an Intel LTE-Advanced modem that provides ultra-fast and reliable 4G/LTE connectivity and a 3000mAh battery for only $299!

Amazon Books has opened its second Bay Area location in Walnut Creek today at 1259 Broadway Plaza, complete with a coffee shop serving Berkeley-based Peet’s Coffee. It’s the fourth location of the internet behemoth’s brick-and-mortar bookstores to offer coffee, and the thirteenth location overall — regardless, the company still considers these stores “experimental.”
“Coffee and books go together like peanut butter and jelly,” Jennifer Cast, VP of Amazon Books, told Retailwire. “Our goal is to have very high quality coffee and to see if people enjoy a coffee shop on its own and whether people enjoy having a cup of coffee and browsing a book store.”
Of the four shops offering coffee, New York and Chicago’s offer Stumptown Coffee (acquired by Peet’s in 2015), while Boston and Walnut Creek offer Peet’s. “It’s great to have a presence in the Amazon Books based in our backyard, given we’re born and bred in Berkeley in 1966,” said Peet’s representative Elizabeth Ricardo via email.
And, not all Amazon Books stores will offer coffee. Cast said that the decision to include a coffee shop depends on the location and size of the store; some are inside malls or plazas that already have coffee shops, or can’t spare the extra space. In Walnut Creek, the coffee shop is more of a kiosk with a seating area, much like the coffee shops found in the Barnes and Noble stores of yore.
According to Ricardo, the coffee company will include their own “innovations” at Amazon’s stores, including Nitro coffee, and bottled cold brew. There’ll also be the regular selection of coffee drinks, with “locally sourced artisanal baked goods.” As for the bookstore itself, innovations include displaying books with their covers facing out, accompanied by review cards. All are either bestsellers on Amazon.com, or rated four stars and above by customers, with prices identical to the site.
The continued expansion of Amazon into the retail books (and cafe) market follows its purchase Whole Foods for $13.7 billion dollars. Following an initial price slashing stunt, the the previously discounted products’ prices seem to be creeping back up, which isn’t great for the company’s reputation as a “market disruptor,” whether it’s groceries, books, or otherwise.
The store and its cafe are now open Monday-Friday from 9:00 a.m. – 9:00 p.m., Saturday from 9:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m., and Sunday from 10:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.

Although it is one of the most popular tropical fruits, it is still one of the least presences in our diet, perhaps because we do not know its many benefits and properties. For starters, the coconut can take advantage of the pulp, white and aromatic, and water or juice, an excellent source for hydration.
In the nutritional chapter, coconut is especially rich in fiber and minerals like magnesium, potassium, iron, phosphorus and calcium. That itself is a fruit that should be taken in moderation (by adding it to the juice, salad …) because it has a high caloric content, around 300 calories per hundred grams. Let’s see more closely what healthy arguments to be included in the diet are.
Table of Contents
Rich in fiber
Its content in fiber makes the coconut is a good choice to prevent and alleviate problems of constipation. It also helps to control the levels of cholesterol in the blood and glucose in the blood, so it is a fruit that can be included in the diet for diabetics.
Rich in mineral salts
In addition to its fiber content, coconut stands out for its contribution of minerals, which makes this fruit an ideal ally to hydrate, especially in the warmer months, and after an intense session of sports. An exotic fruit suitable for adults and children.
Helps prevent gingivitis
One of the benefits of coconut not to give up is that it is good for oral health, thanks to its content in antimicrobial agents. As a home remedy, do mouthwashes with coconut water to help reduce plaque and gingivitis symptoms.
The coconut contains vitamins, among which the vitamin E, an antioxidant affection that helps combats the effects of free radicals, responsible for premature aging. Take coconut; for its fatty acid content, is also good for protect the health of the brain.
Benefits for skin
Coconut not only stands out for its nutritional properties, but also for its skin benefits. Specifically, the coconut oil, present in cosmetics and tanning products, is rich in lauric acid, with antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral effect.
Good for bones
Another benefit of coconut oil is its anti-inflammatory effect in cases of problems with arthritis. In this case, the effect comes motivated by its content in polyphenols. As a remedy, coconut oil helps reduce pain and inflammation caused by this disorder.
If you notice that you lack energy to face the day, take coconut, an extra nutritional contribution. Coconut is a recommended fruit in cases of chronic fatigue, but also needs to be taken into account in a balanced diet if we are athletes and conduct intensive training.

Nina Sparks, general manager of Pladis’ bakery in Harlesden, asks how young women can be encouraged to take up engineering
Today, women are still under-represented across all levels of the UK’s engineering workforce. According to a recent study, only 11% of the UK’s engineering workforce is female, and just 15% of engineering undergraduates are women.
While we have made progress over the past five years, there is still a huge challenge ahead to inspire more young women to join the industry.
For many young people, hearing the word ‘engineering’ automatically brings up images of a job involving heavy machinery.
Many think of engineering roles as dirty and manual but, in fact, being creative, a team player and an excellent communicator are important aspects of the job. As a profession, we need to work hard to dispel outdated stereotypes.
Within our UK bakeries and innovation centres at Pladis, there is an outstanding pool of female talent. During my own career at the firm, I’ve had the chance to work across several areas, including managing production lines, multi-million-pound capital projects and looking after the maintenance of millions of pounds’ worth of bakery equipment.
For me, the best part about engineering is seeing projects go from concept and design right through to practical use. For example, I’ve seen state-of-the-art packing equipment come to life, working with the innovation team throughout the trials and seeing how we can bake and pack biscuits for millions of biscuit lovers. Now, I manage a team of 600 people who work in our Harlesden bakery, the largest in Europe.
It is important to help more role models within the engineering sector communicate, educate and actively encourage young women into the profession. This could range from informal chats with young talent to speeches at schools and universities. At Pladis, we’re committed to attracting a diverse array of talent through mentoring schemes and networking sessions, as well as apprenticeship and graduate programmes and we’re already seeing results: in our graduate cohort for 2017, over 50% are female.
Encouraging women to get into engineering is not just about improving career prospects and making the industry more equal, but also addressing skills shortages.
On International Women’s Day, there is a call-to-action to press forward and progress. I hope the engineering industry will embrace this challenge and work hard to achieve a more balanced workforce.

This paper is a laboratory and field investigation of the CO2 huff 'n' puffprocess for the enhanced recovery of light crude oil. Cyclic CO2 displacementresults with live and dead oils in watered-out Berea cores are presented.Sixty-five single-well cyclic CO2 field tests conducted in a pressure-depletedreservoir are evaluated.
Cyclic CO injection was originally proposed as an alternative to cyclicsteam for the recovery of heavy crude. Investigations of CO2 huff 'n' puffapplicability to the enhanced recovery of light oil began in 1984. Theliterature now provides laboratory core-flood results, field-test data, andnumerical simulations that demonstrate that cyclic CO2 injection is a viablemeans of improving light-oil recovery. The risk associated with implementingCO2 huff 'n' puff is considerably less than that associated with other EORmethods, which typically require much higher upfront investments and experiencemuch longer project lives. Cyclic injection may also be the only EOR option forsmall or discontinuous reservoirs because the single-well process does notdemand well-to-well displacement.
Most of the available literature on light-oil recovery by cyclic CO2injection addresses reservoir conditions that in this paper are callednear-miscible-i.e., at higher pressures that do not exceed the minimummiscibility pressure (MMP) but that afford dense CO2, ranging up to about 0.6g/CM. Information on the performance of CO2 huff 'n' puff at these conditionsis provided in a performance of CO2 huff 'n' puff at these conditions isprovided in a laboratory coreflood study, case histories, field-testevaluations, and a numerical-simulation paper. These reports concur that cyclicCO2 injection can recover incremental light oil, CO2 utilization varies,several oil-displacement mechanisms contribute to enhanced oil production,simulation can yield a successful history match, and available methods forpredicting incremental oil recovery show only modest agreement with actualfield data.
The available literature provides limited information for pressures thatexceed the MMP. One field test performed at miscible pressures that exceed theMMP. One field test performed at miscible conditions was evaluated, and theresults were favorable. Furthermore, cyclic corefloods at miscible conditionsshowed that waterflood residual oil could be displaced. Overall, laboratory andfield results suggest that miscible conditions will somewhat impair CO2utilization.
Very limited data are available on the performance of CO2 huff n' puff forlight-oil recovery at lower pressures-i.e., below the MMP and even below theCO2 vapor pressure. In the gaseous state, CO2 density is low, ranging down toabout 0.01 g/CM. Haskin and Alstoni evaluated field-test results for ReservoirL, which exemplified these conditions. CO2 density was about 0.06 g/CM, andreservoir pressure was significantly below the MMP. Each of four wells wastreated with a 4-MMscf [113 268 std m] CO2 slug. One well indicated mechanicalfailure, and the remaining three responded with an average CO2 utilization of7.2 Mscf/bbl [1282 std M/M]. The light-oil reservoir historymatched byDenoyelle and Lemonnier was also apparently an immiscible application. One wellwas treated with a 380-Mscf [10 760-std M] CO2 slug. The well responded with aCO2 utilization of 3.3 Mscf/bbl [588 std M/M]. Simulations performed to predictthe effect of increasing the amount of CO2 injected predict the effect ofincreasing the amount of CO2 injected indicated that process efficiencydeclined with increasing slug size.
This paper extends the literature with additional laboratory core-floodresults and evaluations of 65 single-well field tests. The primary aim is tohighlight the favorable performance of cyclic primary aim is to highlight thefavorable performance of cyclic CO2 injection for light-oil recovery inpressure-depleted reservoirs. The immiscible recovery of light oil by use ofgaseous CO2 is the focus of laboratory and field results. Information on theutili-zation of impure CO2 is also provided. Furthermore, this papeusescoreflood data at higher pressures to address the significance of an initialreservoir gas saturation. Claridge suggested that the presence of awell-distributed gas saturation should be a favorable factor. presence of awell-distributed gas saturation should be a favorable factor. Materials andMethods
Cyclic laboratory corefloods were performed to complement fieldtestevaluations. Watered-out cores were used to test the ability of CO2 huff 'n'puff to recover light oil that was undeniably tertiary.
Laboratory materials and methods were designed to examine cyclic injectionunder two sets of conditions, One set used stock-tank oil (STO) at roomtemperature and lower pressure (500 psig [3448 kPa]) to model pressure-depletedreservoirs like those in the field tests evaluated for this paper. Corefloodsat these conditions probed the immiscible recovery of light oil with gaseousCO2. The utilization of impure CO2 was also examined at these conditions. Theother set of conditions used reconstituted reservoir oil (RRO) at 130 degrees F[328 K] and higher pressures (2,100 to 3,600 psig [14.5 to 24.8 MPa]) to modelwaterdrive reservoirs similar to those in previously described field tests.Corefloods at these conditions previously described field tests. Corefloods atthese conditions explored the influence of free and solution gases on light-oilrecovery. The STO used for the lower-pressure corefloods was a 31.6 degrees API[868
kg/M] crude from the Appalachian basin, KY. For the live-oil displacements,Timbalier Bay STO was reconstituted with pure methane to a GOR of 400 scf/STB[72 std M/M]. This 31.2 degrees API [870-kg/M] Crude was also the STO used inan earlier laboratory study. 2 Table 1 lists physical properties of thesecrudes. The minimum purities of the CO2 and methane used were 99.5 and 99.97mol %, respectively.
The lower-pressure corefloods were performed with the same 5.77-ft [1. 76-m]-long, 2-in [50.8-mm] -diameter Berea sandstone consolidated core used in anearlier laboratory study. This Core had a PV of 756 CM and a porosity of 21.2%.The live-oil displacements were performed in a second core of the same diameterbut 6 ft [1.83 m] long. This newer core had a PV of 811 CM and a porosity of21.8%.
Fig. 1 is a schematic of the horizontal coreflood apparatus used for thecyclic CO2 displacements. Table 2 lists the conditions that characterized eachcyclic experiment. The procedures used to clean the core, to establish awaterflood residual oil saturation (ROS), and to perform the "huff ' and"puff' portions of the cyclic injection tests were published recently andare only summarized here.
In the cyclic displacements, the core modeled the wellbore vicinity. Theremainder of the reservoir was modeled by a transfer vessel that was preloadedwith brine, manifolded at the core outlet, and maintained at constant pressureduring the run.

When it comes to buying Domestic air conditioning units for your home there are a number. Together with the different makes and models you want to choose whether you want a fixed or mobile air con unit.For people whose Budget is restricted the type of air conditioning for your home would be the air conditioning. The advantage to owning this kind of air conditioning over others is that the ease of use, of course the price tag and how flexible they are. Unlike traditional air conditioning systems this kind will cost half the cost around.But if you are considering purchasing an air conditioning system for your house as are certain aspects that you want to take under account. Below we have a look.
Factor1 – You Will Need to first determine the size of the space into. You decide what size system you, once you know the size of the room can. So the larger the room the system you will have to ensure that it works effectively to eliminate as much heat can.
Factor 2 – Another Factor that has to be taken under account is with. The higher the score then the quantity of heat the air conditioning units have the ability to eliminate from the room where located.When selecting the Rating in your own units is the amount but also the space size a factor in your choice. This will impact the size of the machine as the windows in a room the heat is having the ability to enter into it you install.Plus remember the room the power the machine and the greater the kilowatt rating the machine will have to cool will have to run. This in turn means that the system will cost more to operate.
Factor 3 – Together with Checking the kilowatt rating in your system seem to see what the EER energy efficiency ratingon its. You need ones that include the EER amount as this will make certain that the air conditioning installation prices units operate and hence the price of running it is going to be lowered.
Factor 4 – When considering installing domestic air conditioning units it is worth considering how your property is insulated. Although insulating material is there to keep your house warm during the winter months but assists with keeping your house cool. By ensuring that you have by trapping air inside the kind of insulation in your house is helping to keep your house cool. This is something else that will help to reduce the costs of your air conditioning system.

It was a familiar scene to anyone who has spent time on the road with the Rolling Stones. Keith Richards--the man whose "renegade cool" persona defined the image of rock guitarist, as surely as Elvis' hip-swinging sensuality once defined rock singers--was heading down a long hotel corridor. Only this time Richards was heading toward a photographer, not away from him. The once media-shy Richards was also walking in a straight line, not weaving as in his notorious drug days.

It was easy to tell from the length of Mick Jagger and Keith Richards' answers which one was more interested in talking about the Rolling Stones' past. Jagger, nursing a slight cold in his dressing room before the first of the band's two sold-out concerts at 50,000-capacity R.F.K. Stadium, was good-natured enough to give his reactions to a reporter's list of 10 favorite Rolling Stones songs.

The nearly three-hour "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" (Disney, $35) sails onto DVD today with a lavish two-disc set that includes among its extras a riotous interview between the film's star, Johnny Depp, and Rolling Stones guitar legend Keith Richards, who has a cameo in the adventure as Capt. Jack Sparrow's father. Depp based his character on Richards, so to watch the two together is like watching a doppelganger.

Similar signs might have presaged the fall of the Roman Empire. It was nothing but an interesting juxtaposition on the newsstand: Cher on the cover of Good Housekeeping, looking like an ersatz Barbie doll, and a few covers down, a shirtless Keith Richards on the cover of Rolling Stone, looking every bit a prehistoric reptile.

Fans of the Mamas & the Papas are in for a big surprise with the new solo album from group founder and songwriter John Phillips--an album released just weeks after Phillips died of heart failure at 65. In place of the gorgeously complex harmonizing and endearing folk-rock sound that were the Mamas & the Papas' hallmark, Phillips' "Pay Pack & Follow" is a raw, ragged, hard-rocking outing that sounds like a lost album by the Rolling Stones.

If Jennifer Trynin becomes a rock star, her story could make a charming movie. The plot: A nice Jewish girl from New Jersey graduates from college with degrees in creative writing and philosophy and moves to Boston. Following the advice of a grandmother named Sadie, she pursues a career in journalism. Her heart is still in music, though, so she soon finds herself leading a double life, doing free-lance ghostwriting and editing by day, then performing songs she's written herself at nightclubs.

Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards was hospitalized for a mild concussion after he reportedly fell out of a palm tree while vacationing in Fiji. Richards, 62, was injured earlier in the week and flown to a New Zealand hospital, band spokeswoman Fran Curtis said in a statement. The statement did not elaborate on his condition or explain how he was injured. But media reports in Australia and New Zealand said Richards fell out of a palm tree at an exclusive Fiji resort.

The Rolling Stones canceled a concert in Wales tonight because lead guitarist Keith Richards has an infected finger. "The decision to cancel was apparently only made at midnight when Keith consulted doctors. His septic finger was too bad for him to play," said Stones' spokesman Neil Friedman. A crowd of 30,000 was expected at Cardiff Arms Park, the city's national rugby stadium, as part of the band's Urban Jungle tour of Europe.

Oklo said the permit is an important step towards commercialising advanced fission technologies and is the first issued for a non-light water reactor.
The permit is a critical milestone on the path towards deployment of Oklo’s 1.5-MW Aurora plant, which company co-founders Jacob DeWitte and Caroline Cochran unveiled last month.
“The system itself is designed to build on the really tremendous legacy of metallic fuels that were developed in this country for decades,” Mr DeWitte said at the event.
The Aurora will generate both usable heat and electricity, run for at least 20 years on one load of fuel and operate without the need for water, he said. The plant can also recycle fuel and ultimately convert nuclear waste to clean energy.
Oklo, which is solely venture-funded and backed primarily by US-based investors, recently announced that it successfully demonstrated prototypes of a metallic fuel at INL for the Aurora reactor. It said it had fabricated prototypes with multiple fuel elements reaching production specification.
To fabricate the fuel, zirconium and uranium was melted, casted, taken apart and then examined, Mr DeWitte said.
Oklo would use high-assay low-enriched uranium (Haleu) fuel. However, I common with many other advanced reactor developers, the lack of reliable access to Haleu remains a challenge – one that Congress has set its sights on addressing. The sooner Oklo can “have access to be able to work with that, the faster we’re going to be able to actually get something built,” Mr DeWitte said.
Haleu fuel has many advantages that improve reactor performance. Because the fissionable isotope U235 is more concentrated in Haleu fuel, the fuel assemblies and reactors can be smaller, which is one reason why many small modular reactor designs will run on Haleu. The reactors do not need to be refueled as often, and they can achieve higher burnup rates, which means less fuel will be required and less waste will be produced.
The company is preparing to submit its first licence application for the plant and is targeting the construction of a commercial unit in the early to mid-2020s.
Mr DeWitte said reactors of Oklo’s size are geared especially toward use in remote areas, such as on islands or in Alaska, that often rely on expensive and emitting diesel fuel for energy.


[COVID-19] Exceptional tax measures in favor of businesses
Information current as of the date of publication of this article
The government has just taken exceptional tax measures to support businesses during the Covid-19 epidemic. These measures were clarified by the tax authorities in a press release dated March 13, 2020.
Outlining the measures
- The possibility of obtaining a deferral of the next direct tax deadlines
The main measure is to allow companies to request a deferral of the payment of the next instalments of certain taxes for a period of 3 months. The tax administration has clarified that the request for deferral does not need to be justified and will not result in the application of any penalty. Thus, all companies can benefit from this tax deferral.
This deferral applies to the next due dates for direct taxes, i.e. corporate income tax, payroll tax, CFE, CVAE and property tax. The tax authorities have expressly excluded from this deferral VAT (and taxes assimilated to VAT) and the SSP repayment on salaries.
Companies that have already met their March deadlines can object to the SEPA Direct Debit, which relates to amounts that have not yet been debited, or can request a refund from their tax authorities.
The self-employed have the possibility to adjust online the rate and the amount of their withholding tax instalments at any time. They can also defer the payment of their withholding tax instalments on their professional income from one month to the next up to three times in the case of monthly instalments or from one quarter to the next in the case of quarterly instalments.
- The possibility of obtaining a discount for companies in difficulty
In addition, companies experiencing difficulties for which mere deferral of taxation would not be sufficient, may apply for direct tax rebates but also for rebates on penalties or interest on arrears in respect of outstanding tax debts.
However, contrary to the provisions on taxation deferral, the discounts will be granted only in the light of the actual financial situation of the firm and the criterion of difficult situation will be strictly assessed.
- Refunds of corporate tax receivables
Finally, the tax administration has made a commitment to companies to speed up the process of repayment of outstanding debts, such as tax credits, as well as the payment of invoices owed by the State, public authorities and public bodies.
- Information on current and future tax proceedings
According to our information, the Government has informed the representative organizations of businesses that no new audits would be launched and no procedural documents would be sent for the audits in progress, unless prescribed or time-limited by law.
With regard to ongoing tax audits, the tax administration should allow companies not to respond to requests from tax auditing bodies, on a temporary basis. Interactions with the auditing bodies should continue, where appropriate, by dematerialized means or LRAR mail.
Companies are advised to contact the auditing bodies to find out how they can continue the audit and/or the procedures in progress, depending on their situation.
Application of the deferral measure for each relevant tax
- Corporate Income Tax (CIT)
As a reminder, the corporate income tax is paid in four instalments settled on March15, June15, September 15 and December 15. Payment of the balance of the corporate tax remaining due must be made, for companies closing their fiscal year on December 31, by May 15 of the following year, and for the others, no later than the 15th day of the 4th month following the closing of the fiscal year.
At this stage, the deferral being granted for a period of 3 months, the instalment due on March 15 would therefore have to be paid simultaneously with the instalment due on June 15, 2020.
As the exceptional measures were announced in a press release dated March13, some companies will already have made the payment of the advance tax instalment of March 15. The tax authorities expressly authorize companies to object to the SEPA Direct Debit at their bank or, if it is too late to make such an objection, to apply to the Corporate Tax Department (SIE) for reimbursement of the advance payment.
- Payroll tax
The payment arrangements for this tax depend on the amount of the tax of the previous year:
- – If it was less than €4,000, it must be paid before January 15 of the year following the year in which the remuneration was paid;
- – If it was between €4,000 and €10,000, it must be paid in three instalments (April 15, July 15, October 15) and the balance must be paid before December 31 of the year following the year of remuneration;
- – If it was more than €10,000, it must be paid monthly within 15 days of the end of the month.
Thus, the exceptional deferral measure could apply to the provisional payment due on April 15, if the tax paid for the previous year was between €4,000 and €10,000. Although for the time being, only the instalments due in March are expressly covered by the emergency measures.
The deferral measure applies to the instalment due in March, when the payroll tax is paid monthly, which can be reimbursed by the tax authorities if it has already been paid by the company. The tax authorities authorize companies, as in the case of advance corporate income tax payments, to object to SEPA direct debits at their bank or, if it is too late to make such an objection, to request reimbursement of the advance payment from the Corporate Tax Department (SIE).
- The Corporate Property Tax (Cotisation Foncière des Entreprises, CFE)
The payment of the CFE is made by means of an advance payment, before April 1 corresponding to 50% of the amount of the CFE, due for the previous year, followed by the payment of the balance on December 15.
Companies should be able to benefit from the deferral of the 50% advance payment normally due on April 1, 2020, although for the time being the government has not explicitly granted the deferral of the tax instalments due in April. It will be necessary to await future guidelines from the government.
If payment of the CFE is carried out monthly, the relevant monthly instalments can be suspended. However, the tax authorities do not expressly state whether it is possible to obtain reimbursement of the instalment for the month of March, if it has already been paid.
- The Contribution on the Added Value of Enterprises (CVAE)
The CVAE is paid for the previous year by means of two instalments, each corresponding to 50% of the amount of the CVAE. These instalments are to be paid no later than June 15 and September 15 of the tax year and the balance is to be paid no later than the 2nd working day following May 1 of the year following the tax year.
We understand that the exceptional tax deferral would therefore apply initially to the payment of the balance of the CVAE due on May 4, 2020. Nevertheless, a deferral of the instalment due on June 15, 2020 could be considered, depending on how the situation evolves. It is advisable to wait for future government guidelines on this point.
- Property tax
This tax is due at the latest during the month of October, on the basis of a tax notice issued during the last quarter of the year. Thus, this taxation should not be affected by the exceptional tax deferral.
Nevertheless, if the company has opted for monthly payment of property tax, it may suspend the payment of its instalments, as in the case of CFE. However, the tax authorities do not expressly indicate whether it is possible to obtain reimbursement of the monthly instalment for March, if it has already been paid.
Thus, at this time, this exceptional deferral measure concerns the following tax due dates:
- March 16:
- – Payroll tax paid in February (in case of monthly payment)
- – Advance payment of the CIT and the social contribution on the CIT
- – Monthly levying of the CFE and property tax (in case of monthly payment)
In addition, although only the March deadlines are specifically targeted by the Government, the exceptional deferral measure could also cover the following tax deadlines (subject to future confirmation by the authorities):
- April 1:
- – CFE instalment
- April 15:
- – Payroll tax paid in March (in case of monthly payment) or provisional payment (in case of quarterly payment)
- – Monthly levying of the CFE and property tax (in case of monthly payment)
- May 4:
- – Payment of the balance of the CVAE due in respect of the previous financial year
In practice: the modalities of implementation
In order to make it easier to apply for an extension of the direct taxes deadlines, which all companies can benefit from without justification, the tax authorities have drawn up a specific form for difficulties linked to Coronavirus.
Companies must indicate the taxes for which they are requesting deferral, the due date for each tax and the amount that should have been paid. In addition, it is also in this first framework that companies can request the refund of the advance payment of corporate tax or payroll tax paid in March by indicating in the “amount” box: “advance already paid for refund”.
As regards taxes paid by monthly instalments (CFE and property tax), taxpayers can suspend payment of the instalments directly online or by contacting the Service Collection Centre (Centre Prélèvement Service). In this case, the amount of tax remaining to be paid will be deducted at the time of payment of the balance of the tax, by 2020 year-end.
Self-employed workers must carry out the relevant formalities online, on the impot.Gouv.fr website, in the section “Manage my tax at source”. To be applicable from April, these changes must be made before 22 March.
Companies experiencing difficulties may apply for rebates on direct tax, penalties or interest on outstanding tax debts, providing concrete evidence of their financial situation. Companies can use the same form (box 2). As a reminder, the tax authorities have indicated that they shall strictly assess the company’s difficult situation criterion.
Refunds of outstanding tax claims and invoices awaiting payment to be made by the State may also be subject to an accelerated refund procedure. To do so, companies will have to report the claims concerned to the Corporate Tax Department in box 3.


Rio de Janeiro, June 14 () Barcelona are close to signing highly-rated teenager Vitor Roque from Athletico Paranaense, according to media reports in Brazil.
Blaugrana boss Xavi has identified the 18-year-old as an ideal backup and potential future successor to current No. 9 Robert Lewandowski, according to news outlet Globo.
It added that the Catalan outfit would be willing to spend up to 40 million euros to secure the Brazilian forward’s signature, Xinhua reported.
Roque has scored six goals and provided three assists in 17 games across all competitions for Paranaense this season.
He earned his first Brazil cap when he was introduced as a second-half substitute during a 2-1 defeat to Morocco in March.
Forward Raphinha is currently the only Brazilian in Barcelona’s first-team squad.

I recently had the privilege and honor of working with a pediatric occupational and speech therapy practice. While I was there, we talked a lot about the parents' role in the therapy process. Kids might be brought to therapy with organic issues like ADHD, sensory processing disorder or autism. When parents have trouble understanding the way a child is acting, it can lead to feelings of overwhelm and frustration that can become a significant relational issue.
Often a parent may question if their child’s behavior is their own fault, and they wonder if they are not meeting their child’s needs. Or it can turn spiteful, where parents feel like the child is trying to control or manipulate them. It’s an unconscious process that bubbles up from your belly - a feeling of insecurity or anger, and it is conveyed to the child through resentment or avoidance. These feelings are not necessarily communicated verbally. It can simply be in a look of disgust or becoming rigid and stiff when the child comes toward the parent for a cuddle. This is when it becomes a relational issue between parent and child, and it can lead to the child’s behaviors getting worse.
To overcome this, it is so important to be aware of what you are saying - not just to the child, but to yourself, internally, in your own mind. What are you saying to yourself about yourself during challenging moments with your child? Recognizing that it’s about you and your child is the first step in recovering your relationship.
It may seem overly simplistic, but it’s incredibly valuable.
We all carry our own lifetime’s worth of experiences and challenges with us, and making the distinction between what you bring to the relationship and what your child brings is crucial. What we carry is our own “stuff”, but it can very easily become intertwined with our children’s “stuff”. To start interacting with your child effectively and with empathy, you must first be able to offer yourself a message of self compassion - tell yourself “This isn’t my fault, I’m doing the best I can”. Once you can do this, you will feel more grounded. If you can see yourself and what you need, then you will be able to better understand what your child needs.
The next step is coming to terms with the fact that as a parent you might need help; that you don’t understand your child’s behaviors. It can be incredibly painful and vulnerable to admit that you do not understand your child. Society tells us that we’re supposed to know how to deal with everything that comes up with our kids or that we should be able to handle it on our own, and if we can’t we’re somehow at fault. Instead, we should shift this perspective to an open mind that views these interactions with our children as a learning process. We have so many things to learn from our children. No one is at fault; it’s an invitation to understand our children, ourselves, and all humans better.

Youths called upon lawmakers to play their role in ending child marriage by motivating fathers and ensuring Sexual Reproductive Health Rights (SRHR).
They made the call at a virtual view exchange meeting with lawmakers under Save the Children's youth advocacy project for ensuring SRHR for all and ending child marriage, held on Sunday, said a press release.
Youths said they are alarmed at increasing violence against women and children in the country as incidents of child marriage and rape increased further during Covid-19 pandemic.
Under the circumstances, youth changemakers have urged lawmakers to enact laws and policies aimed at ending child marriage and ensuring SRHR for youths.
They also placed some demands, including taking special steps to motivate fathers in ending child marriage and ensuring SRHR for youths, especially for indigenous, transgender and ethnic people.
The demands also include taking steps for eradicating misconception about SRHR and include the matter of SRHR into curriculum, and raising countrywide awareness campaigns in this regard.
Six parliament members—Aparajita Haque, Advocate Khodeza Nasreen Akhter Hossain, Dr Samil Uddin Ahmed Shimul, Umme Fatema Nazma Begum, Tamanna Nusrat, and Advocate Adiba Anjum Mita—attended the event.
At the discussion, the MPs supported the demands of the youths and stressed on raising awareness about it and involvement of all concerned in this regard.
Engage Men and Boys (EMB) Network Bangladesh, a forum of Save the Children, organised the programme.
Project Director & Gender Advisor of Save the Children Umme Salma moderated the programme.
EMB members Musfiqur Rahman Sabbir and Habibur Rahman and National Change Maker of SRHR and Ending Child Marriage project Sohanur Rahman, among others, also spoke.

When the Nobel Prize-winning US physicist Robert Hofstadter and his group fired extremely energetic electrons at a small vial of hydrogen on the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center in 1956, they opened the door to a brand new period of physics.
Until then, it was thought that protons and neutrons, which make up an atom’s nucleus, had been essentially the most elementary particles in nature.
They had been thought-about to be ‘dots’ in space, missing bodily dimensions. Now it out of the blue grew to become clear that these particles weren’t elementary in any respect, and had a measurement and sophisticated inner structure as properly.
What Hofstadter and his group noticed was a small deviation in how electrons ‘scattered’, or bounced, when hitting the hydrogen. This recommended there was extra to a nucleus than the dot-like protons and neutrons they’d imagined.
The experiments that adopted around the globe at accelerators – machines that propel particles to very excessive energies – heralded a paradigm shift in our understanding of matter.
Yet there’s a lot we nonetheless do not know in regards to the atomic nucleus – in addition to the ‘robust drive’, certainly one of 4 fundamental forces of nature, that holds it collectively.
Now a brand-new accelerator, the Electron-Ion Collider, to be constructed throughout the decade on the Brookhaven National Laboratory in Long Island, US, with the assistance of 1,300 scientists from around the globe, might assist take our understanding of the nucleus to a brand new stage.
Above: How an electron colliding with a charged atom can reveal its nuclear structure.
Strong however unusual drive
After the revelations of the Fifties, it soon became clear that particles referred to as quarks and gluons are the fundamental building blocks of matter. They are the constituents of hadrons, which is the collective identify for protons and different particles.
Sometimes folks think about that these sorts of particles match collectively like Lego, with quarks in a sure configuration making up protons, after which protons and neutrons coupling as much as create a nucleus, and the nucleus attracting electrons to build an atom. But quarks and gluons are something however static constructing blocks.
A idea referred to as quantum chromodynamics describes how the robust drive works between quarks, mediated by gluons, that are drive carriers. Yet it can’t assist us to analytically calculate the proton’s properties. This is not some fault of our theorists or computer systems – the equations themselves are merely not solvable.
This is why the experimental examine of the proton and different hadrons is so essential: to know the proton and the drive that binds it, one should examine it from each angle. For this, the accelerator is our strongest device.
Yet while you have a look at the proton with a collider (a kind of accelerator which makes use of two beams), what we see relies on how deep – and with what – we glance: typically it seems as three constituent quarks, at different instances as an ocean of gluons, or a teeming sea of pairs of quarks and their antiparticles (antiparticles are close to similar to particles, however have the alternative cost or different quantum properties).
So whereas our understanding of matter at this tiniest of scales has made nice progress in the previous 60 years, many mysteries stay which the instruments of in the present day can’t absolutely handle. What is the character of the confinement of quarks inside a hadron? How does the mass of the proton come up from the virtually massless quarks, 1,000 instances lighter?
To answer such questions, we want a microscope that may picture the structure of the proton and nucleus throughout the widest vary of magnifications in beautiful element, and build 3D pictures of their structure and dynamics. That’s precisely what the brand new collider will do.
The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) will use a really intense beam of electrons as its probe, with which it will likely be potential to slice the proton or nucleus open and have a look at the structure inside it.
It will try this by colliding a beam of electrons with a beam of protons or ions (charged atoms) and have a look at how the electrons scatter. The ion beam is the primary of its sort in the world.
Effects that are barely perceptible, reminiscent of scattering processes that are so uncommon you solely observe them as soon as in a billion collisions, will turn out to be seen.
By finding out these processes, myself and different scientists will have the ability to reveal the structure of protons and neutrons, how it’s modified when they’re certain by the robust drive, and the way new hadrons are created.
We might additionally uncover what kind of matter is made up of pure gluons – one thing which has by no means been seen.
The collider will likely be tunable to a variety of energies: that is like turning the magnification dial on a microscope, the upper the vitality, the deeper contained in the proton or nucleus one can look and the finer the options one can resolve.
Newly fashioned collaborations of scientists internationally, that are a part of the EIC group, are additionally designing detectors, which will likely be positioned at two totally different collision factors in the collider.
Aspects of this effort are led by UK groups, which have simply been awarded a grant to steer the design of three key parts of the detectors and develop the applied sciences wanted to understand them: sensors for precision monitoring of charged particles, sensors for the detection of electrons scattered extraordinarily carefully to the beam line and detectors to measure the polarization (course of spin) of the particles scattered in the collisions.
While it might take one other 10 years earlier than the collider is absolutely designed and constructed, it’s prone to be properly well worth the effort.
Understanding the structure of the proton and, by it, the basic drive that offers rise to over 99 % of the seen mass in the Universe, is among the best challenges in physics in the present day.

Here's everything you need to know...
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made news earlier this year as they stepped down from their roles as ‘senior’ members of the royal family, becoming financially independent.
It wasn’t their losing of their HRH titles or their loss of the Sussex Royal brand that made the most news however. Instead, it was their big move, with the couple relocating across the pond.
Prince Harry, Meghan Markle and baby Archie moved to Canada after the announcement and have since set up camp in Los Angeles, California, where they are currently observing the quarantine as a family of three.
The Sussex family are still renting at this point while they look for a permanent LA home, with the couple currently staying in actor Tyler Perry’s property.
It wasn’t the pricey property, their A-list neighbours or even Meghan surprising everyone with her ‘perfect’ Spanish that has made the most news recently.
Instead, it was a surprise phone call made by the Duchess of Sussex to check up on Michael Johnson, the President and CEO of Boys & Girls Clubs of Dane County.
Meghan has worked with the organisation before and according to Michael, she rang him out of the blue to check in.
Taking to Twitter, Michael posted his thoughts on the phone call and they are lovely.
‘I am blown away by Meghan Markle!!,’ his post reads. ‘She called me again today while my wife and kids were in the car and said, “Hey Michael this is Meghan I am just checking in.” We talked for about 10 min about a lot of things including Althea and her well-being. We also talked about some plans she support but I can’t share yet… so stay tuned.’
He continued: ‘I love how poised and down to earth she is, her passion, her commitment to children and how she is following up with genuine love and support. Meghan you are amazing and if you ever wanted to work for Boys & Girls Clubs in Wisconsin we would hire you in a minute.’
Well, this is lovely.

"Stopped by with a group of friends on a long bike ride through the area. There didn't seem to be a lot of places to eat around here, and we were pleasantly surprised when we found the Buttersburg Inn. Great service, the waitress was very friendly. Cream of crab soup was excellent."
December 1, 2017 LW
"Absolutely the best restaurant for unpretentious, delicious food. If you want a satisfying home cooked meal, this is the place. The owners are wonderful down to earth people, and the staff is courteous and attentive. Daily Specials are fantastic, and the regular menu has many options to satisfy any palate. Even vegetarian dishes are offered. The prices are very, very reasonable. The classics include the best fried chicken you will ever taste, crab cakes to rival any you'd find in Baltimore, and prime rib platters that put high end steak houses to shame. The desserts there are so delicious, and baked on the premises. Try the Hummingbird Cake and the Jewish Apple Cake...so good. Highly recommended, and worth the trip. There isn't much to see in Union Bridge, except this incredible little restaurant. And once you've been there, it is a guarantee that you will be back!"
December 1, 2017 Jason O.
"My father took my fiance and myself out to dinner and we had THE BEST time. The server was so warm and friendly and Jim one of the owners was the best. I had the roast beef platter with mashed potatoes and fried apples with Jewish Apple Cake for desert. I walked out SOOO stuffed. My fiance had fried shrimp with Mac and Cheese. OMG the best Mac and Cheese we have ever tasted. We loved it so much that we want to have our rehearsal dinner here. We are defiantly coming back again."

"Small town diner with aspirations for more. Typical burgers/sandwiches/fried chicken type stuff on menu - but with daily specials that crank it up a notch. You can bring your own bottle if you'd like, and even call ahead for a special menu if you book a party (we haven't done this, but friends have, and had a nice evening).We went last week on a school night for a quick family dinner. Wifey and I stuck with the basic fare: cheeseburger, turkey reuben, fries, cucumber salad, etc. That was all very good and quite reasonable.Our teenager of course sought out the most expensive thing on the menu (or close to it) - the evening special chicken marsala. He didn't like it all that much compared to the version I make at home for him - but then again his idea of fine dining is going thru BOTH drive-ins so you can dunk your big mac in your frosty. In other words, the chicken marsala is probably just fine. I do remember last time I ate here (years ago), I had some americanized shepherd's pie type meal, andremember it being simple but tasty.Service was pleasant and friendly. Consistent with other reviewer's experiences, one of the owners stopped by our table, all warm and welcoming, to make sure we were having a good meal - and when my wife had questions on the desserts, he just brought a few out for a show and tell demo.I'm sure we'll go back."
October 3, 2017 Sue L.
"My husband and I traveled to this restaurant for breakfast. The server was wonderful, pancakes good. Sausage patty was delicious. My husband had an omelet was pleased. Coffee good as well as tea. They also have dessert , pies, cakes and cannoli' s . I would go back for the sausage."

Isn't this Pebbles paper gorgeous? I used a mixture of Spellbinders & MFT dies, a little sewing, lace & flowers. Sentiment is from Verve.
Sentiment on the inside is Penny Black - I love the beautiful font. Back tomorrow with another wedding card!

Last season, the Seattle Seahawks were a couple breaks away from finishing 12-4 and first place in the NFC West. They still managed an 11-5 campaign, though, and did so while overcoming a litany of injuries – most notably at running back.
Despite that impressive season, the Seahawks' 2019-20 win total has been set at just 9.5, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. With perennial MVP candidate Russel Wilson at the helm, that total might be a little too low.
In fact, bettors can receive a higher payout by wagering on the over (+105) rather than the under (-125). That suggests that oddsmakers believe the 9.5-win line could even be a little too high.
Even with the team playing in what projects to be a competitive division, Seattle has what it takes to beat that total. Offensively, this team is going to be extremely dangerous. The Seahawks were top six in pass and rush offense by Football Outsiders' DVOA metrics.
Both units could be even better next season, with some development from DK Metcalf and healthier campaigns from Chris Carson and Rashad Penny. The addition of B.J. Finney, who received a 72.0 grade as a pass blocker from Pro Football Focus, should help matters as well.
Defensively, the Seahawks have more room to grow. Re-signing Jadeveon Clowney would be a huge boon for the defense, and a healthy 16-game season from him would go a long way as well. But if they can't re-sign him, there are plenty of solid replacements for him as well.
With a little improvement on the defensive end, Seattle's offense could easily be good enough for this team to post another double-digit win season. And if the defense can make some real strides, the sky is the limit for Wilson and the Seahawks.

text: The collection of Alice Temperley is impossibly beautiful. It really suprised me, but we are never disappointed with Temperley London's designs. The collection reimagines the 1950s, couture proportions, reach fabrics is what reminds the 50s. Collection is full with delicate petal appliques and floral prints which are key to the collection. It is important to bear in mind that every floral print is hand printed, digitally engineered before applying. About the imaginary muse Temperley says that “she’s an enchanted princess from the South of France who lives a charmed life and only ever wears beautiful clothes”. It is visible that resort 2014 collections are going into luxury and rich people. When it comes to colours palette consists of brightness, creams, cinnamon, lavender, navy and ecru. Evening gowns are also jaw-dropping, floor-lenghted, inserts which are decorated with petals on shoulders are what distinguish the collection.
