Nuneaton's multi-million pound Ropewalk development took a step closer to realisation last night.
But space for its showpiece ?anchor? store has been slashed in half, while the car park will now be a stand-alone feature.
Councillors at the planning and development committee of Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council voted to approve a detailed application of the scheme yesterday.
The overall floor space of the development has been cut from 23,000 sq metres to 18,000 sq metres.
The majority of this space has been lost from the area designated for an anchor store, which has moved from the edge of the mall to the centre.
This change has seen its overall area go from 8,000 sq metres to 4,000, but it is hoped its new central location will attract a greater flow of people through the development.
The car park will be built independently of the development, easing traffic disruption.
Cllr Mick Jones (Lab, Galley Common) said: ?The new design, including the glass-fronted restaurant, is really splendid. I?m really excited about it, but I?m just hoping my excitement is still there when the first digger goes in.
Cllr Dave Ensor (Lab, Abbey) said the public was getting restless about Ropewalk. ?We know there are still matters to be resolved but I am sick and fed up of having to tell countless people I haven?t got a clue when work will start.?
Planning and development manager Nick Blamire-Brown said negotiations with developers were going well and were nearing completion.

Africa must increase production to feed citizens
Africa needs to increase its annual food production by 70 per cent by 2030 to enable it to sufficiently feed its citizens, a United Nations (UN) report has warned.
If not done, the continent risk suffering from food insecurity.
Indeed, experts project that the continent’s present population of about 1.3 billion will increase to about 2.5 billion by 2030.
Therefore, with more mouths to feed, it is projected that Africa has to increase its food production by 70 per cent at the same time.
At the launch of a new programme to support farmers to prevent a range of plant health issues, improve food security and protect livelihoods in Accra, the Chief Director at the Ministry of Food and Agriculture, Patrick Robert Ankobiah, said that major crops that were important for food security and income generation in Africa were often affected by production constraints due largely to limited knowledge of best practices.
He said the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) estimates that annually up to 40 per cent of food crops were lost due to plant pests and others.
Also, he said smallholder farmers continued to use highly toxic plant protection products that were not sustainable for agriculture production and were potentially harmful to human, livestock and environmental health.
“Not only does plant health have implications for food security but also has health implications. These challenges are also experienced here in Ghana where small-scale farmers represent the vast majority of farmers who generally experience low food yield of staple food crops with an occasional marketable surplus,” he said.
“Increase in climate events, outbreaks of pests such as the fall armyworm and high input prices can contribute to low production levels. Therefore, any programme that will address some of these factors of food insecurity is very welcomed,” he said.
Dubbed ‘PlantwisePlus’, it is a new Centre for Agriculture and Bioscience International (CABI)-led worldwide programme that will also work in partnership with the Ministry of Food and Agriculture (MoFA), Plant Protection and Regulatory Services Directorate (PPRSD), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA Ghana), Ghana Green Label Scheme and the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research.
Mr Ankobiah commended CABI and its partners for developing the programme that aims to further strengthen the national plant health system.
Ghana is one of the six PlantwisePlus countries that will effectively serve to prove the concept’ for the programme in its delivery of digital innovations. These will bring efficiency to plant health management and have strong potential for broad application. The other countries are Kenya, Pakistan, Zambia, Bangladesh and Uganda.
According to the Regional Representative of CABI for West Africa, Dr Victor Attuquaye Clottey, said PlantwisePlus builds upon CABI’s Plantwise and Action on Invasives programmes and would particularly empower farmers to increase income, food security and food safety amid a changing climate, which could exacerbate crop losses.
He said the new programme also sought to accelerate the availability of nature-positive and low-risk plant protection products to reduce reliance on high-risk farm inputs.
“Special emphasis will be placed on improving extension services for the country’s female farmers who have limited access to extension advisory services, including plant health services due to various challenges.
“This often contributes to a gender gap in agricultural productivity which if closed, could help boost agriculture production and improve the welfare of rural households,” he said.
PlantwisePlus has already been working with the Women in Agriculture Development Directorate (WIAD) and the Agricultural Extension Services Directorate, both under MoFA, to see how extension services for women can be improved.
The programme conducted an assessment – using the Gender and Rural Advisory Services Assessment Tool (GRAST) developed by the FAO – to measure how gender-sensitive the delivery of extension services was in the country.
This led to a series of recommendations that include recruiting more women to lead farmers as extension contact farmers, supporting women farmers by covering transportation costs and offering on-site childcare facilities and encouraging women’s groups to diversify and engage in the production of new crops.
Other works, as part of the Plantwise programme in Ghana – and working with the PPRSD –, included the Pest Risk Information Service (PRISE) which used state-of-Information Centres (CICs) to increase the yields of maize.

The luxury car brand has lifted the veil on its highly anticipated Rolls Royce Cullinan, a new super SUV that promises to shift the landscape in this burgeoning market.
Rolls Royce’s so-called “high-sided vehicle” circumvents the familiar sports utility verbiage and uses new language to describe its supersized model, which takes visual cues from the flagship Phantom and applies them to a tall-standing, light, off-road-capable package. As such, the prevailing style is one of imposing and surprising modernity, like a rolling riff on the marque’s Parthenon grille.
Though its exterior silhouette is relatively linear, upright, and infected with more than a bit of refined restraint, the cabin reveals impressive swaths of mirror-matched veneers, wraparound leather surfaces, and niceties like an available fixed rear center console with a refrigerator, a whiskey decanter and glasses, and Champagne flutes.
The interior distinguishes itself with a strong sense of occasion. Touch one of the stainless-steel door handles, and the vehicle drops by 1.5 inches, beckoning you into its opulent space. The rear doors open backward and can shut themselves via a small button, à la Rolls’s sedans and coupes.
A glass partition separates the cabin from the 21.1-cubic-foot luggage compartment, while the brand’s first folding rear-seat configuration transforms the Rolls-Royce pavilion seating position into a flat, cargo-friendly layout. Rolls Royce Cullinan has dubbed its rear liftgate “the clasp” because it opens in two sections, enabling a party-friendly, rear-facing seat setup.
The Rolls Royce Cullinan’s driving dynamic appears to be consistent with Rolls Royce’s 114-year-old ethos of “waftability”—that is, effortless forward propulsion and a magic carpet ride. Thanks to the Phantom-sourced 6.75-liter, twin-turbo V-12 engine producing 563 hp and 627 ft lbs of torque, this luxury SUV should deliver effortless acceleration in spite of its nearly three-ton curb weight.

Despite the moving moment during Tuesday’s speech when President Trump acknowledged Carryn Owens, the widow of Chief Petty Officer William “Ryan” Owens, debate continues over the operation in which the Navy SEAL lost his life. New reports on Wednesday shed light on how the Yemen raid was authorized just five days into the Trump administration, and the intelligence collected.
As previously reported, President Trump approved the raid — a major escalation of U.S. counterterrorism operations in Yemen that was planned by the Obama administration — during a dinner with his top advisers on January 25. The Washington Post reported that according to a senior administration official, Trump was first briefed on the operation during his morning intelligence briefing, and he briefly stopped by a discussion of the raid happening in Defense Secretary James Mattis’s office.
On January 26, sub-Cabinet officials reviewed the operation during a meeting chaired by K.T. McFarland, Trump’s deputy national security adviser. They went over the increased risk to U.S. forces, but several sources told the Post that the discussion only lasted about 25 minutes because there were other topics to cover and Trump had already approved it. The senior administration official said it was more like 40 minutes, but former officials say that’s still inadequate.
“In previous operations like this, we would sit around the table for two hours and scrub everything. The intelligence agencies would put down maps. We’d have congressional folks talk about reaching out to Congress. The State Department would do its political assessment,” said Colin Kahl, who formerly oversaw Middle East issues at the Pentagon and was national security adviser to Vice-President Joe Biden. “You can’t cover the complexity of a topic like that in 23 minutes.”
On Monday, a day before President Trump recognized Owens during his address to Congress, he distanced himself from the decision to authorize the raid, emphasizing in a Fox News interview that others planned the mission.
“This was a mission that was started before I got here. This was something that was, you know, just they wanted to do. They came to see me. They explained what they wanted to do, the generals, who are very respected,” he said. “My generals are the most respected that we’ve had in many decades I believe. And they lost Ryan.”
Trump was facing new scrutiny after Ryan Owens’s father publicly questioned the motivation for the operation over the weekend, and called for an investigation. U.S. officials had also told NBC News that the raid produced no significant intelligence.
Trump rebutted this during Tuesday’s speech, saying:
I just spoke to General Mattis, who reconfirmed that, and I quote, “Ryan was a part of a highly successful raid that generated large amounts of vital intelligence that will lead to many more victories in the future against our enemies.”
The AP reported that a large amount of information was found on the laptops, hard drives, and cell phones scooped up during the raid:
The U.S. official said a list describing the broad range of intelligence gains from the raid fills more than three pages. It includes information on al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula’s training techniques and targeting priorities, said the official, who wasn’t able to discuss details of the classified military operation publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity. Such intelligence gives insight into the group’s attack planning.
What appears to be in dispute is the value of that intelligence. On Wednesday night, NBC News reported that ten U.S. officials across the government who have been briefed on the mission say there have yet to be any truly significant findings. One senior Pentagon official said it was mostly information they already knew, though another U.S. official said they did glean contact information that may link terrorists in Yemen to Europe and the U.S.
The New York Times reported on Wednesday that the materials, which are still being analyzed, may further U.S. officials’ understanding of Al Qaeda’s tactics and new nonmetallic bombs the group is developing. However, there’s nothing about specific plots, and the information has not led to any new strikes.
Initial descriptions from the Trump team suggested far more dramatic findings. White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said the operation “gathered an unbelievable amount of intelligence that will prevent the potential deaths or attacks on American soil.”

The Vietnam War was the second post-war conflict to be fought in Indochina after the Second World War, following on from the equally bitter clash between the French and the Vietnamese under Ho Chi Minh. This book looks at that first struggle, a major war in its own right, as well as the background to the American involvement.
The book starts with a look at the background to the outbreak of the First Indochina War, starting with Ho Chi Minh's disappointing visit to the Paris peace conference of 1919. We then move on to look at the massive impact of the Second World War - the collapse of France in 1940 left the Empire vulnerable, and the easy Japanese take-over of Indochina was a blow from which the French never really recovered.
The bulk of the book looks at the long struggle to expel the French from Vietnam, which ended with the Vietnamese victory at Dien Bien Phu, and the almost immediate collapse of the French position in northern Vietnam. Finally we look at the period between the end of the French phase of the war and the outbreak of the American phase, a period in which the South Vietnamese leader Ngo Dinh Diem failed to establish a stable government.
One thing this excellent book does is dispel any idea that the Americans got involved to defend a 'free' South Vietnam against aggression. US involvement went back far too long for that to be the case, with an increasing amount of weaponry going to the French during their war, and an awareness in Washington of the failures of Diem in the south - instead of creating a bastion of freedom to compete with the successful Ho Chi Minh, Diem created a personal dictatorship with rule increasingly held within his own family and all dissent suppressed violently.
Logevall is excellent on all aspects of the war - the military action in the north of Vietnam, the political debates within France, the United States and even Britain, and the role of China and the Soviet Union, and the diplomatic efforts that ran alongside the fighting.
As the war develops it becomes increasingly clear that the French have less and less idea of why they are fighting in Vietnam, while the level of American influence increased all the time. Both powers failed to understand the nature of the war they were fighting, and both were prone to over-estimating their successes. The author draws convincing parallels between the behaviour of French officials during the 1950s, when they claimed to control much larger areas than they really did, and American officials in the period between the wars, where they convinced themselves that Diem was doing much better than he really was.
This is an excellent study of this crucial period in post-war history, and a compelling account both of the French struggle in Vietnam and the way in which the United States was dragged into a war she couldn't really win.

The mother of notorious kidnap kingpin, Chukwudubem Onwuamadike, a.k.a Evans, who was recently arrested in Lagos, has reportedly gone into hiding to avoid the crowd that besiege her Umudim, Nnewi home in Anambra state after news of the arrest of her son filtered in, according to Vanguard.
This came after the Obi of Umudim, Chief Benneth Okafor, revealed that the arrested kidnap kingpin was not known in his community as he hardly visited home, neither did he have any investment in the community.
Lady Nwosu, as Evan's mother is popularly called, was described as a no nonsense woman. Contrary to insinuations from some quarters that her son bought her a car from the proceed of kidnapping, the woman only rides a lady motorcycle popularly called Nwanyi Nnewi, according to a Vanguard report.
The woman has now gone into hiding leaving the canteen where she sells food empty to avoid the wrath of the villagers. A woman who spoke on the condition of anonymity said: "she went into hiding because people were trooping in to sympathise with her over the arrest of her son. Some came for different purpose; to make mockery of her and to see the face of the mother of the arrested kidnapper. Even you newsmen were troubling her. She has been crying since news of the arrest reached her. I do not know where she has gone to but I think it is good for her."
Vanguard also visited Emmanuel Anglican Church Primary School, Akamili Umudim Nnewi, the primary school Evans attended. Headmaster of the school was, however, not on seat. A teacher that was accosted said he was not competent to speak on the matter.
Also, police sources told Vanguard yesterday, that the suspect has been shedding tears since he was thrown into the cell lamenting that; "After making billions and living in mansions, I am in the cell with common criminals." He was said to have been keeping to himself in the cell and avoids other detained persons.
The news of Evan's arrest has become a hot topic in his home town with many expressing shock after learning that he was a billionaire kidnapper.
At his palace, the Obi of Umudim, Chief Okafor, stated; "I was told that he hardly came home. It is only the Akamili kindred where he comes from that will be able to give a little account of the young man. It is unfortunate that many people in this village do not know him because he does not have any investment in Nnewi like an average Nnewi man, neither does he own any house here."
More facts emerged, yesterday, about the circumstances that led to the location of the residence of the kidnap kingpin leading to his arrest, last Saturday. Sources attributed it to an informant residing in Magodo and intelligence reports that revealed identities of his three girlfriends.
It was gathered that after the Inspector-General of police deployed his Intelligence Response Team to track the notorious kingpin, they made huge progress from the documents recovered from his hideout in Igando, Lagos after the miraculous disappearance of his last victim. The documents reportedly aided them in identifying occupants of that apartment and opened an avalanche of information leading to Evans movement.
That was how they discovered that he lives at Magodo area of Lagos State, while other members were also residing in Lagos, Rivers, Abuja, Edo and Anambara States.
N30m IGP reward as a boost A source who spoke with Vanguard disclosed that the leader of IGP's team, Abba Kyari, who was tracking their locations had planned to round-up all the suspects, in one swoop, but his plans failed as Evans was always changing locations, making it difficult to get his exact location.
The source who spoke with Vanguard on the condition of anonymity disclosed that, while Kyari was searching for Evans, and has also mobilized some residents of Magodo Estate, giving them clear descriptions of Evans, his vehicles and the name of his security man, IGP, Ibrahim Idris, also announced a bounty of N30million on information that cou

Wahpeton Daily News
Republished with permission from:
Mark Askegaard, Comstock area farmer and board member of the Mndak Upstream Coalition.
A quilt hangs on the wall of the Hickson community center. The quilt bears the names of the families who founded the community. Two years ago the chief engineer for Fargo’s Diversion Authority stood in front of this quilt and informed the people of this community that their homes and property would be sacrificed for Fargo’s project. Two weeks ago another Army Corps engineer stood before a similar quilt in Comstock, MN, and delivered the same message: your community doesn’t count.
The current Diversion Authority presentation has been refined and re-worked. Though similar to the Hickson meeting in that no significant information was conveyed – gone was the directness. The new presentation was all about getting the community to “buy in.” Questions posed by Comstock residents were met with a polished, practiced response: “that’s why we need your input; we need you to help us;” or “you can have a say in what we do;” and “this is a negotiation.”
Underlying the new friendly and inviting tone was the same old message: Comstock has to sacrifice for Fargo. Though in no danger of flooding, Fargo’s Diversion Authority has designed a ring dike for Comstock. The ring dike is necessary only because Fargo intends to dam the Red and flood the area with 200,000 acre feet of water. New and different however, was the suggestion that Comstock has a choice and that its residents were being invited to participate in the process. They are welcome to participate in details that have nothing to do with whether their community will be flooded or why there must be a ring dike. Rather, the Army Corps is interested in their opinions and suggestions as to what type of grass should be planted on the dikes or where within the ring dike will the Army Corps locate their sewage lagoon.
A false choice is again being served up: “cooperate with the ring dike details or we’ll build it without your cooperation.” You can bet any cooperation by Comstock will be spun by Fargo’s Diversion team as an endorsement of the whole project. Comstock does have a choice. Join us: the Mndak Upstream Coalition, the Richland Wilkin Joint Powers Authority and the people of your community already fighting to stop this unnecessary overblown project. Fargo can have reasonable permanent flood protection without destroying your community and the farms of the people named on your quilt. Join us for a steak in Christine on September 22 and bring your checkbooks. You need not cooperate or be manipulated by the sponsors of a project that brings nothing but harm to Minnesota communities.

Plussat: Full bottle of water and continuous refreshments in flight.
Miinukset: Connections booked together need more time for larger airports. I had over an hour connection on paper and had to run through the entire airport to even catch my flight. My mother on a separate flight arrived ten minutes before her flight took off even though booking stated a full hour. Also the quality and cleanliness of the plane needs improvement. Lufthansa is normally amazing quality but both flights today were subpar. Bathroom smelled of urine, old and dirty seats with no support. Dirty hand rests and outdated screens which skipped with movies
Miinukset: Abigail in MLA (Luqa Intl Malta), one of the sassiest and unhelpful agents I have met. Ask for payment for baggage, does something with my credit card- then tells me I need to go to another desk to pay. So inefficient. This on top of her and her gate buddy screwing around at the desk throwing things at each other. Professionalism is not here. To top it off, the plane sat on the tarmac for 40 minutes and we just about missed our connection. Dirty plane too, gum stains on carpet and dirty seats. Will not fly with these clowns again.
Plussat: Of all the flights I checked this was the most convenient in timely manner and comfortable.
Miinukset: Movie options.
Plussat: A flight was delayed due to weather conditions and we had to sit in the plane for almost an hour, BUT information sharing from the Capitan was sufficient and on-time. Very good job from pilots. Leg room in economy - I was positively surprised, very decent leg room! Thank you for providing it.
Miinukset: I flew economy and all was good and appropriate to the level.

Discussion in 'PlayStation Lobby' started by Mdesilva, Jul 17, 2013.
Akihiko knows the Sex God doesn't need speed to destroy everything.
I'd link the GameFaqs simulator but that might be too lewd. Then again, you just said that.
EDIT: Eh, what the hell.
Couldn't join yesterday, sorry. Oh, and I play a little Injustice...I'd say I'm quite good at it.
Whenever that Ultimate Edition gets a little cheaper, I'm getting it.
GG's to everyone who played last night. That moment where @MangoPowah used Yosuke's super to float at the top of the screen to run the clock was probably the funniest thing that night.
I was salty when he used it as an overhead! Never had that happen to me. It crossed up and shit, too.
Desperate times call for desperate measures, man.
I think that's actually the first time it's ever worked for me. I've seen it happen before, but I've never been able to pull it off until last night.
Who wants to play in 20 minutes? I'm hosting, and @freakmonkey9 and @Mayonaka_ said they can play.
@MangoPowah @OneWeak @vincent791
Count me in! But I warn you, probably you'll wipe the floor with me. I've barely played the game for an hour. I've only beat arcade mode once.
My bloodlust cannot be sated.
It was a good night, after 7 tries I win my first online match!
At least I identify a couple of characters where I'll start.
You did pretty good for your first set. Which characters are you feeling?
please don't say Narukami please don't say Narukami
Just wondering, do you guys have mics? I got one pretty cheap yesterday, but I haven't used it all too much.
I feel more comfortable with Chie and Yukiko, I'm not sure if it was circumstantial but I feel that I didn't suck that much with those two. I want to give another shot with Aigis and Mitsuru. I think this was a neccesary step that I took yesterday, as soon as I find that character I'll check for his/her special moves, combos, etc
Thanks for the matches buddy, You are really awesome! You pulled some incredible combos and even when you didn't let me win I feel that you were holding yourself.
I bought a mic as soon as I bought my PS3 years ago but I barely use it. It's always out of power, lol!
I have a mic I can use on my PS3, but we usually use Skype for when we actually do calls. Do you have a Skype account?
If you use Yukiko we could bore everybody else in the lobby to tears with Yukiko mirrors.
All right, all right! I'll start with Chie, Mitsuru and Aegis then! If I suck bad with those three then I'll go back to Yukiko!
Indeed I do! asiandriv3r
I'll be hoping for your failure with Chie and the S tiers so we can have our Yukiko matches.
>Chie not being S Tier
Cool. Just so you know I have a pretty mean Lobo.
Anyone interested in Under Night in Birth? It should hopefully be coming out before the end of February.
@hao-chi You already have my profile downloaded on your PS3, so you're obligated to at least try.
This is the first I've heard of it. Is it like Melty? It's the same dev, apparently,
Do you have Skullgirls? When Encore hits, I'm getting it and going hardcore with my [Fillia/Parasoul/Valentine or Squigly] team.
Also, KoF? I haven't tried it but I have it due too Playstation Plus.
Under Night in Birth actually does look pretty fun. Or, I think, anyway. It's hard to tell from the trailer I watched since the character portraits and other graphics they kept putting up covered most of the screen.
It's gotta be said, it looks pretty cool. I'm tempted to import, actually, although I'll give it some thought first.
I had Skullgirls, I can re-download it if you guys wanna play. I play a 2 man team of Parasoul and Cerabella. ...Is it suprising I play the redhead and grappler?
And no. I could get it though. I have some interest in KoF.
Lol. Here's some actual gameplay.
I already know who I'm gonna play.
I looked up some matches after I posted. Yuzuriha looks really strong...
Is this a digital game, or a full $60 import? I have no idea.
What I do know is who I'd play as if I got the game :>
Can't call us casuals when you never fight us
I can fight later.
send me a message when you can.
By later I mean tonight, 8-9ish, CST
Ugh. Why do I get the feeling you're thinking Yuzuriha?
So do I.
Anyway, I've just realized... I've only fought @dive-slam and @freakmonkey9 so far. I need to fight the rest of you guys some time.
Think it through and you'll guess it very easily.
Quick question, were the kanji and uhh, other player (can't remember who he played) that joined the lobby the last time we player your buddies? Cause I'd definitely want to play them a lot more as well.
Actually, no they weren't. I guess the feeling of saying "OK!" and "OK?" back and forth was mutual. The only two I knew there were you and Silva. I'd love to play them again too, though.
I see, yeah, I rarely see Kanji's that tough. I don't play them enough to feel any confident in the matchup :[
I'll have to fight you a lot more too, I'm not remotely used to a lot of your Yosuke pressure.
That's like watching a few good Tsubaki players without prior knowledge and saying, "Damn, she looks top tier".
I plan on playing Linne and Waldstein. A few others interest me as well, but those two are at the top of my list.
Add me. PSN: Oneweak-
I'm kinda the grappler guy in our little group here.
Is my Kanji not good enough for you? Haha...
I wasn't basing it just on how the match itself played out, but also on some of the tools she has. She has some surprisingly long range attacks at her disposal.
I ended up looking up a tier list discussion and sounds like she's apparently considered one of the lower characters. That could change as the game is patched and/or as people learn how to use her better, but either way she looks interesting and I plan on giving her a try.
We don't get to fight enough though :[
I might try and sub Kanji if I can get some combos together with him.
I think I'm going to drop Yu as my sub and pick up Labrys. The fact that her and Yosuke are so different from each other (he zips across the screen like a fly and just so happens to give and receive damage like one while she is much slower but can hit like a tank) should make her all the more fun to learn.
The tier lists seem to be all over the place and undecided.
And I don't think I need to tell you why I'm interested in Waldstein and Linne.
I'm always up for some games when I'm online. Just send an invite and I'll join. (Unless my connection sucks that day)
If I knew who they were, I'd probably understand.
*looks them up*
Edit: I actually guessed you would use Waldstein when I saw him in the trailer I mentioned earlier.
Sounds like Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN- is coming out next month #When'sJam
Oh really? Me, use the grappler character? No way!
...I love his design. And he looks pretty fun.
Earlier than expected. I'm sticking with Potemkin and Millia.
I feel like such an idiot.
Chronophantasma has, and always has had online training mode and all-play lobbies.
I wanna try this out later.
Since a 3 day weekend is upon us, maybe we could get a lobby going on one of these days? If you guys aren't busy, that is.
I'll probably be busy most of tomorrow though, since I'm gonna be cheering on my team in the NFL playoffs. (I'll leave that up to you to guess which one )

On October 8, 2015, Amazon Web Services (or AWS) announced its new AWS Internet of Things (or IoT) platform. This platform enables devices to exchange and collect information without any human interaction and to generate a plethora of data that can be a captured, processed, and predictively or prescriptively analyzed to allow enterprises to make informed decisions.
For example, AWS IoT can be used for traffic movement, wherein connected vehicles will interact with traffic systems and, based on congestion and wait times, suggest different routes.

The Guardian recently came down heavily on Big Data and the negative impact it may cause to democracy. Do you really wonder why? A lesser known company, Cambridge Analytica, suddenly became one of the most talked about companies – not only in the Big Data sphere but outside it as well. Though some observers would not agree, but Cambridge Analytica got credit, or rather blame for hyper-personalized campaigns that helped cause two shocking outcomes in the democratic processes – Brexit and the US elections.
The CEO of Cambridge Analytica, Alexander Nix, has been very vocal when discussing the work his company does. He told Skynews: “Today in the United States, we have somewhere close to four or five thousand data points on every individual.” This means that with a further powered algorithm, one can control the self-determination of an individual.
The Guardian went down saying –
“Our model of democracy is based on public campaigning followed by private voting. These developments threaten to turn this upside down, so that voting intentions are pretty much publicly known but the arguments that influence them are made in secret, concealed from the wider world where they might be contested.”
Is this the power of Big Data or has it became too powerful to imagine?
When we start looking at the other side, towards our business and IT world, we are still struggling to put the Big Data hypothesis or a POC in production. Failures of Big Data projects are too many.
So then, where is the gap? Why is it that only a few are able to utilize or rather maximize the benefits of Big Data to an unimaginable extent and the majority fail in a simple implementation?
Here is the answer – All of us, as analytics professionals, approach Big Data Analytics in the same way we used to approach BI projects in the past. In reality however, Big Data projects are starkly different in comparison to a BI project.
The two major gaps lie in:
- The expectation and
- The implementation
In plenty of Big Data projects, we expect to instantaneously hit a goldmine whereas the reality is that Big Data helps in finding those small pieces of gold which when collected, can become a goldmine. In the democratic process, voters act like those small pieces of gold, which when collected together, give us the goldmine (Brexit/Trump).
Implementation and design approach are completely different. Big Data is not only challenging the old rules of the traditional BI world, but also the most basic ones.
An few examples are as follows –
- Do we really need the dimensional data model?
- Should we take the path of the logical model to the physical model as in Traditional BI, or rather pull in raw data and build logical views on top of that?
- Do we really need the long cycle or curves of MDM or should we only implement a cross-reference graph database?
- No central use case – analytics may have a shorter life expectancy and hence, build only logical views for use case and dismantle whenever needed
- Use metadata tagging to automate and manage data pipelines. Manage metadata in a way that automatically identifies and tags
- Onboard a new data source in a week
- Use of DevOps for continuous integration and deployment
- Converging roles of data engineers, analysts and data scientists
- Do we need really sophisticated ETL tools or will only Spark suffice?
In this new digital world, the need of the hour is two-fold – Analytics on Demand and Analytics Anywhere.
It means Analytics-as-a-Service has to be nimble but deep, and the Analytics ecosystem has to be more adaptive than ever before.
One of my most successful Big Data implementations was for Telematics Data, in which numerous cars on the road were analysed for numerous telematics data points along with driver behaviour, geographic location, traffic conditions and more importantly, upcoming traffic conditions in order to predict or even prevent road mishaps. The most important factor for its success was the ability of the Design and Implementation team to “unlearn” traditional BI ways and adapt to the new Big Data ways.
Change is constant. But Big Data, oh boy, you are asking us (Analytics Professionals) to change a lot. Nevertheless, whatever is happening in the BI world is not uncommon and we see similar changes in other part of the IT world as well. In my opinion, the need of the hour is to have an off-the-shelf Big Data ecosystem which is away from nuances of traditional BI implementation and has a focused view of utilizing Big Data features and power. This, in my opinion, will result in high conversion ratio of Big Data projects.

Tesla Inc. shares dropped further on Thursday after The Information reported that the Silicon Valley electric-car maker’s vehicle orders in China fell by nearly half in May compared with April, citing internal data. Tesla has faced a backlash in China in recent months over how it handled consumer concerns about the safety and quality of its cars, and also has had to grapple with more competition from Chinese EV makers such as Nio Inc. Last month, the China Passenger Car Association said that Tesla sold 25,845 made-in-China vehicles, and while a year-on-year comparison wasn’t available, that represented a Tesla’s sales drop of 27% from March, and worse than the 12% month-on-month decline in overall electric vehicle sales. Shares of Tesla have dropped 17% this year and gained 230% in the past 12 months, which compares with gains of 12% and 34% for the S&P 500 index in these same periods.

There is so much to recommend this eccentric feature based on the life and music of Bob Dylan. There's writer-director Todd Haynes, an exceptional filmmaker who showed his versatility and bravery with the haunting Safe, the glam Velvet Goldmine and the subtle Far From Heaven.
There's the fact that Haynes is pushing boundaries, admirably attempting to be more ambitious and experimental than ever. There's the outstanding cast, which includes Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett (who won a Golden Globe for her gender-bending role), Richard Gere, Heath Ledger (pictured) , Michelle Williams, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Kris Kristofferson and Haynes regular Julianne Moore.
There is the wonderful soundtrack: Haynes chooses wisely from Dylan's back catalogue and, improbably, Dylan gave permission for his music to be used — both in its original form and in cover versions by cast members.
And there are the visuals, which are colour-saturated and stunning. And yet … Haynes delivers an elliptic drama in which several characters — a black boy, a movie star, a folk singer, etc — are playing various aspects of Dylan.
Well, so it appears because it's hard to be sure of anything in a film that doesn't make sense. I don't think it's meant to. As with Dylan himself, the drama is, I think, meant to be quixotic and elusive.
Diehard Dylan fans will probably love it but I found it too cerebral and confounding; in short, too much like Dylan the man, not enough like his music.

In my experience, sober living requires some hard work, but it is TOTALLY worth it!
In the eternal words of Mr. Ozzy Osbourne, “Being sober on a bus is, like, totally different than being drunk on a bus.”
Um…thanks Ozzy. That was…profound. Yes, being sober on a bus IS different than being drunk on a bus just as…
- Going to work sober is totally different than going to work drunk.
- Playing golf sober is totally different than playing golf drunk.
- Having sex sober is totally different than having sex drunk.
Sober Living Is Completely Different Than Drunk Living!
Life is naturally complicated. We, especially alcoholics/addicts it seems, work really hard to make things way more difficult than they need to be. Sometimes we need a reminder, even a very obvious one, that we don’t really have to fight everyone and everything.
Indeed, sober living is vastly different than drunk living!
- I can interact with my coworkers in a meaningful way and probably not get fired.
- I can enjoy my recreation time and not have to apologize for my behavior.
- I can behave appropriately in the bedroom and actually remember it the next day.
When I decided to seek treatment for alcoholism, I thought that drinking was my problem (my only problem) and that once I put the booze down, my life would snap back into shape. I guess I expected rainbows, butterflies, and puppy dogs.
I didn’t get that…not exactly.
Now, my life did improve immensely when I quit drinking. First, my body felt better as the poison worked its way out. Second, my mind felt better and I was able to think more clearly. Finally, my spirit improved as I understood my place in the universe.
But, as time passed, I actually began to feel worse. Feelings of hopelessness crept back into my mind. I lost perspective on my spirituality. I began to feel like an outsider again and lashed out at people around me. I wanted to die but was too full of fear to kill myself!
It turns out that sober living is not just about abstinence! Putting down the drug is just the price of entrance. The real work begins when we get inside.
Why was I feeling worse? I was not doing the work!
The work of sober living is where we find the true reward. Doing the work allows us to put aside regret and fear. It allows us to offer something to the world rather than just to take up space.
Generally speaking, achieving sobriety and living sober comes from three distinct ‘steps’…
- Trusting in something larger than ourselves.
- Dealing with the messes we made in the past.
- Helping other people.
You CAN find sober living if you can find a way to do these three simple things. Is it hard to believe in something larger than ourselves? For some of uf it is. Nobody wants to face their past mistakes. Helping others doesn’t compute with self-centered, emotionally stunted addicts.
Yes, this work is hard…but it is oh so worth the effort!

The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday reinstated the death penalty sentence for Boston Marathon Bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.
The 6-3 ruling overturns a federal appeals court decision to void the sentence.
That 2020 ruling by the 1st Circuit Court of Appeals decision overturned Tsarnaev's federal death penalty and instead sentenced the Kyrgyzstan-born terrorist to life without parole.
The appeals court said the trial judge improperly excluded evidence that showed Dzhokhar was heavily influenced by his older brother, Tamerlan.
On April 15, 2013, the brothers placed two homemade "pressure cooker" bombs near the finish line of the Boston Marathon that exploded as runners of the 42-kilometer (26-mile) race arrived.
The attack killed three spectators and injured more than 260 others.
A massive manhunt ensued. Three days later, the brothers shot and killed a Massachusetts Institute of Technology police officer. On April 19, Tamerlan died after the gun battle with police. Dzhokhar, who had been shot, escaped. He surrendered to police later that evening after they found him hiding in a boat stored on a trailer.
The lower court also found that his trial could have been tainted by jurors who had already made up their minds because of the publicity surrounding the high-profile case that kept Americans glued to their televisions for days.
"Dzhokhar Tsarnaev committed heinous crimes. The Sixth Amendment nonetheless guaranteed him a fair trial before an impartial jury. He received one," Justice Clarence Thomas wrote for the majority.
In his dissent, retiring Justice Stephen Breyer wrote, "In my view, the Court of Appeals acted lawfully in holding that the District Court should have allowed Dzhokhar to introduce this evidence."

Tourism authorities are working on a plan to add Kyaukka Village to the list of tourist destinations in the Myeik archipelago, according to the Myeik Tourism Entrepreneurs’ Association.
Located in Palaw Township of Myeik District in Taninthayi Region, Kyaukka Village is situated on an island in the shape of a crab’s pincers. The village has over 1,000 households and a population of 4,470 people. The villagers have built houses on stilts over the water, and rely mainly on fishing.
Tourism authorities are making arrangements to develop the village into a tourist spot, as it has great potential to attract both local and international visitors, the association said.
Currently, operators are offering two main tour packages in the Myeik archipelago, which include trips to the Donnyaunmine Village and Samat island.
Operators are now planning to start new tour packages, which will allow tourists to visit Pala Settawya Pagoda and three other islands, said U Myint Than, the manager of Mergui Dolphin Tour Company. Demand for the new tour packages is expected to be high this season, he added.
The people in the Milethway, the Kyatchaung, and the Thechaung villages follow a lifestyle similar to the Kyaukka villagers, he said. They also conduct fishing as a major business, producing aquaculture products such as dried fish and fish paste.

What you need
- 35cm length of crepe paper
- A4 piece of card
- dark pencil
Cut the length of crepe paper into five narrow strips (about 1-2cms wide).
Hold one end of one of the strips of crepe paper with one hand, then using your other hand, grip about 3cms down.
Next twist the strip of crepe paper by turning your hands in opposite directions.
This will create a twisted fold that will resemble the wiggly tentacles of a jellyfish.
Repeat the folding all the way down the strip of crepe paper.
Next repeat this process on all four remaining strips of crepe paper.
Once complete set aside.
From the A4 piece of card trace a large semicircle.
Using the scissors cut it out.
Draw on a face using the pencil.
Finally tape the wiggly tentacles to the base of the semicircle.
- You may want to use different coloured crepe paper to create different coloured tentacles.

The Delaware River Basin Commission will hold public hearings Feb. 22 and Feb. 24 on its proposal setting conditions for natural gas drilling in the Delaware River watershed.
The hearings will be from 1:30-5 p.m. and 6-9:30 p.m. Feb. 22 at Honesdale High School Auditorium, 459 Terrace St., Honesdale, Wayne County, and at Liberty High School Auditorium, 125 Buckley St., Liberty, N.Y. Hearings will be held at the same times Feb. 24 at Patriots Theater at the War Memorial, 1 Memorial Dr., Trenton, N.J., the DRBC said in a news release.
Registration for speakers will begin an hour before the hearings on a first-come basis. About 75 people will be able to speak in the two-minute time period allotted per speaker. Oral testimony can be supplemented with written comments. Elected officials will be allowed to speak at the beginning of the hearing if they contact Paula Schmitt at the DRBC at 609-883-9500 Ext. 224.
Residents can still submit written comments until 5 p.m. March 16. Comments can be submitted online
to http://parkplanning.nps.gov/projectHome.cfm?projectId=33467 or mailed to Commission Secretary, DRBC, P.O. Box 7360, 25 State Police Drive, West Trenton, NJ 08628-0360. Include your name, address, and affiliation, if any.
The hearings are part of the commission's plan for taking public comment on the proposed conditions it set last year for natural gas drilling in the watershed, which includes the Lehigh Valley.
While natural gas companies have been drilling throughout western and central Pennsylvania, the commission has used its authority to halt the practice in the watershed until it could get a better assessment of the impact of drilling on the area.
The technique of extracting gas by hydraulic fracturing, or "fracking," uses millions of gallons of water. After injecting that water deep into the ground, some of it — contaminated with additives and natural substances — stays underground, some is returned and recycled and some is held in ponds.
The natural gas industry has been most interested in the Marcellus Shale deposit, which lies underneath parts of West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Maryland and New York. Although it is not underneath the Lehigh Valley, drilling still could affect the valley because the Marcellus shale does lie beneath lands that feed the Delaware and Lehigh rivers.

What is the strongest 34CrMoS4 alloy heat treatable steel?
The company cooperates with 34CrMoS4 alloy heat treatable steel steel plants such as Maanshan Iron and Steel, Youdan, Liugang, Tangshan Iron and Steel, Xinyu, Jinan Iron and Steel, Shougang, Shagang, Rizhao, Pinggang, Xicheng, Dachang and other steel mills all year round. Alloy plate, 34CrMoS4 alloy heat treatable steel boiler plate, container plate, carbon plate, open plate, I-beam, angle steel, channel steel, H-beam, round steel, steel pipe, hot rolled coil, cold rolled galvanized and other spot stocks.
15Mo3 steel is a kind of pearlitic heat-resistant steel, which can still show its characteristics under high temperature and long time load. 15Mo3 steel is used for heating surface of 34CrMoS4 alloy heat treatable steel low and medium pressure boiler (working pressure is generally not more than 5.88MPA, and working temperature is below 450 ℃). 15Mo3 steel is widely used in petroleum, chemical industry, power station, boiler and other industries. 15Mo3 steel is used to make reactor, heat exchanger, separator, spherical tank, oil and gas tank, liquefied gas tank, etc.
Alloy steel plate is a kind of high strength steel plate with excellent performance in all aspects. In the current market environment, the performance requirements for steel plate are also higher and higher, ordinary steel plate has been far from meeting the market demand, and the emergence of alloy steel plate has broken this deficiency. The alloy steel plate is improved from the traditional steel plate, which is a new high improvement to the performance of the traditional steel plate. Today let us have a learn of 34CrMoS4 alloy heat treatable steel, alloy steel plate together.
The microscopic strength of the 34CrMoS4 alloy heat treatable steel, wear-resistant steel plate refers to the strength of the hard phase, but the higher the strength, the higher the wear resistance. Strength is the basis of high-quality wear resistance of wear-resistant steel plates, but the relationship between strength and wear resistance is not proportional; wear-resistant steel plates are often wear-resistant, the root cause is that there are hard particles and soft conventions.
Chemical composition of 12Cr1MoV alloy steel plate: Carbon C: 0.08-0.15; Silicon Si: 0.17-0.37; Manganese Mn: 0.40-0.70; Sulfur S: allowable residual content ≤ 0.035; Phosphorus P: allowable residual content ≤ 0.035; Chromium Cr: 0.90-1.20; Nickel Ni: allowable residual content ≤ 0.030; Cu: allowable residual content ≤ 0.030; V: 0.15-0.30; Mo: 0.25-0.30.Delivery status of 34CrMoS4 alloy heat treatable steel, 12Cr1MoV alloy steel plate: delivered in heat treatment (normalizing, annealing or high temperature tempering) or non heat treatment status, and the delivery status shall be indicated in the contract.

Kel and I just got to see James Taylor LIVE! It was awesome! First of all, we're not concert going folk but we love good live music. That was great music. He sounds just like he did on Mellow Touch.
The venue was just fabulous as well. It was held in WolfTrap's Filene center. It's an open theater made of wood. It was open-air. Good thing it was a beautiful night. Not too muggy or steamy. It had just rained. There was a nice cool breeze.
It was one of the most fun dates we've had in years. I have to thank my friend, Gayle, for the wonderful tickets.

A recent April study from Fi, a New York-based company that makes smart dog collars, shows that 71 percent of dog owners in the U.S. are more likely to pursue remote roles over in-office roles so that they can take care of and spend time with their pets. The study surveyed 1,005 U.S. dog owners who are either already back in the office or will return to the office sometime later this year.
Forty-four percent of pet owners would not opt to take a new role if they couldn’t bring their dog into the office, according to the survey. And a third of dog owners would even change jobs if they could not bring their dog to the office.
The results are worth noting, particularly for employers that are struggling to find workers amid the Great Resignation. But they’re not all that surprising, says Jonathan Bensamoun, founder and CEO at Fi. “Millennials recently overtook Boomers as the largest pet-owning group, with estimates that over 50 percent have dogs. Forty-four percent of Millennials consider their pets to be ‘starter children,'” he adds.
A majority of dog owners further shared that they’d feel anxious about leaving their furry friends at home as they head back to the office. It can be tough, especially for those who became new pet owners during the pandemic and have grown used to being around their pets 24/7. Separation anxiety is fairly common in dogs as well. Plus, it can be difficult, or costly, to factor in dog walking during the workday.
That said, there is an opportunity for employers to help out pet parents in their workforce.
According to the Fi study, dog owners said they would go into the office three times per week if they were allowed to bring their dogs to work. But it could be tricky to implement such a policy if, say, other co-workers in the office are allergic to pets. Some workplaces opt for on-site doggy daycares instead.
Pet-friendly spaces are a perk more valued by younger generations: 50 percent of Gen Z’ers surveyed selected dogs in the office as a top perk they look at when taking on a new role, compared to 35 percent of Millennials and 18 percent of Baby Boomers who reported the same, according to the study.
Fi’s Bensamoun suggests that employers can also support pet parents by helping cover costs for dog food and dog boarding when workers go on vacation. Offering pet insurance as part of a benefits package is increasingly common, too, since many consider dogs as members of the family, notes Bensamoun.

The final challenge.. naming the painting. (oil, 48"x60")
A frequent question is, "How long did it take?" Since I have worked on this for almost three months, but not consistently, it seemed only fitting to use "Water, with interruptions" as a title.. It addresses the "how long?" question as well as describing what is actually going on IN the painting itself. Especially since I usually paint calmer, water. I was inspired by a book I am reading now, "Death with interruptions" by Jose Saramago.
I am painting surfart my self, and know how hard it is to paint water, but you really hit it!!!
I am painting surfart myself, so i know how hard it is to do water, but you really hit it!!!
Have a nice day!
Thanks Stephan... keep at it!

It's getting cooler and the days are getting shorter. Less sunlight and warmth means our plants will slow down their growth, so a lot of what we plant in our garden now is really for spring.
This month is a great time for planting trees, shrubs and spring bulbs.
In the Vegetable Patch
Annual summer crops in the garden are coming to their end now. The days are becoming too short and too cool to redden tomatoes or ripen eggplants and capsicums.
If you're removing your tomato plants, let the green ones ripen in a warm place inside. If you have a greenhouse you can extend your tomato harvests into late autumn.
Late maturing pumpkins left on the vine will be ready to harvest soon. Wait until the vines have died back and the stalk starts to brown and harden. Leave about 6cm of stalk on when cutting pumpkins off the vine to help them store long-term.
Kūmara can also be harvested this month. Carefully dig them up before the frosts come. They will need to then cure in a warm dry place for a couple of weeks to toughen their skins so they can store longer.
When removing old crops, you can cut them down as opposed to yanking them from the soil. Pulling them breaks up the carefully built soil networks underneath and removes the food source for the microorganisms in the soil. If you just chop them down at the root level, the roots will break down and return nutrients to the soil.
Keep your soil covered with mulch. Mulches made up of chopped herbaceous plants, leaf mould, compost, and shredded seaweed will help keep weeds at bay and the soil life happy over the winter.
Harvesting and Sowing
Keep planting and sowing fast-growing salad greens to ensure you do have something to harvest in the winter. Early turnips and radishes are also quick-growing and add a little more variety to your harvest.
When harvesting lettuces, picking the outer leaves as you need them, as opposed to harvesting the whole plant will allow you to stretch your harvest throughout winter.
Spring Bulbs and Flowers
It's time to get those spring bulbs in the ground now if you want flowers for spring. Planting them sooner rather than later gives them time to establish and they will flower better in spring.
Choose a spot with good drainage so your bulbs don't rot. Dig a hole as deep as the bulb is big and plant the bulb with the pointy bit facing up.
Summer flowers left to go to seed now will self-seed and bloom once spring is here.
Have a clean-up in your garden and get rid of any dead, diseased, or spent plants.
Deadhead your perennial flowers to allow the plant to use its energy for the next burst of blooms. Cut back your perennial herbs to encourage some fresh growth.

McLean Hospital, Manchester-Boston Regional Airport (MHT), and the NH Community Behavioral Health Association (NH CBHA) are bringing an inspirational exhibit highlighting stories of people living with mental illness to New Hampshire.
The Manchester exhibit is part of Deconstructing Stigma: Changing Attitudes About Mental Health, McLean’s international mental health awareness campaign, featuring compelling portraits of courageous people who volunteer to share their stories with the hope of changing how people living with mental illness are viewed.
Deconstructing Stigma initially launched in 2016 with a large installation at Boston’s Logan International Airport. Since then, McLean has partnered with airports and other public venues worldwide to feature volunteers who share their stories about their experiences living with mental illness. The Manchester exhibit features several volunteers from New Hampshire.
“We are excited to bring Deconstructing Stigma to New Hampshire and are grateful to the Manchester-Boston Regional Airport and our advocacy partners for supporting our efforts to heighten awareness and spark conversation about mental health,” said Scott J. O’Brien, director of Education Outreach for McLean Hospital.
“Most of all, however, I want to express our deepest thanks to the volunteers of Deconstructing Stigma who have bravely shared their personal stories in hopes of helping others.”
The exhibit, which was installed across from baggage claim 3-5 at Manchester-Boston Regional Airport, features individuals from New Hampshire and beyond who have experienced the impact of mental health challenges.


The successful continuation of the Trilateral cooperation between Greece, Cyprus and Egypt, and the extension of cooperation between the three countries to more and more areas are the foundations for security, stability and development in the region. This was the outcome of the 4th Trilateral Summit in Cairo on Tuesday, October 11th.
However the Summit also served as an international forum for leaders to send their own messages.
Greek Prime – Minister Alexis Tsipras sent a clear message to Turkey, without naming it, noting that there should be respect for international law and good neighbourliness to ensure stability and security in the “hot” Mediterranean region. On his part, the Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades stressed the necessity of solving the Cyprus issue, while the Egyptian President called for the international community’s support for stability in the country.
The host President of the Arab Republic of Egypt Abdel Fattah el-Sisi was happy to welcome Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades and Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras of Greece, at the Presidential palace in Heliopolis for the 4th Summit between the three countries. On the sidelines of bilateral and trilateral contacts, the three leaders proceeded in a symbolic gesture by planting three olive trees in the courtyard of the Presidential Palace, symbolising their common commitment and their common objectives, to be joined in the longterm by other companions.
In a joint press conference at the end of the Summit, Alexis Tsipras, Nicos Anastasiades and Abdel Fatah al-Sisi, highlighted, the importance of cooperation between the three countries.
At the press conference the president of Egypt welcomed Alexis Tsipras and Nicos Anastasiades in Cairo and underlined that “The first conference in Cairo in 2014, confirmed the need to continue this cooperation in order to implement stability and peace. The past requires us to continue with this cooperation and to include more countries” he said, adding that, “the need for cooperation in strategic areas is clear”.
On his part, Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades spoke about the success of the Summit in regards to the targets, such as the deepening and consolidation of the functioning of the three countries mechanism without it working against any third state which would want to assist in these issues. “Egypt, Greece and Cyprus have to face common challenges and common problems,” said Mr. Anastasiades.
“For Greece this trilateral cooperation is a strategic choice to promote peace, security and stability,” stated Tsipras at the Trilateral Meeting.
“That’s why [we] the countries in the region, that have the region’s stability and the prosperity of our people as a common goal, must work together,” said the Greek Prime Minister, adding that “we decided to hold regular meetings between our ministers”.
“In the context of the increasing multilevel crisis in our region we emphasised the principle of good neighbourly relations based on cooperation” Tsipras underlined and stated that “Respect for international law is an implicit condition for unity in our region”.
“A just and viable solution to the Cyprus problem is also necessary. A solution for the benefit of all the people of Cyprus. We support this important effort that is underway”, Alexis Tsipras stated concerning the ongoing discussions on the Cyprus problem. “We stressed the need for a ceasefire in Syria. We reiterated the importance of solving the Palestinian problem”, the Greek Prime – Minister said.
Finally he stressed that the three leaders of Greece, Egypt and Cyprus made a symbolic gesture before the start of the Trilateral Meeting: “We made a symbolic move. We planted three trees. These trees symbolize our shared commitment and our common goals. “/ IBNA

Need .22 handgun suggestions
Tax season is quickly approaching, which means it's time for a new addition to the collection. I'm strongly considering buying a .22LR handgun, whether it is a semi-automatic or a revolver I don't know yet. I really don't know much about .22 handguns though.
If you all could give me some experience/suggestions on what I should look for, your favorite model, and why, maybe it'd ease the decision making process a little bit. I'm not new to guns, or handguns, just don't have a .22 handgun yet.
I do have pretty small hands, men's size small or medium in a glove if you know about what that's like, so trigger reach is pretty important.
I'd like to spend $350 or less.
Other than that, I'm open to suggestion.


In September 2019, the IRS released a draft 2019 Form 1065 and Schedule K-1 with their respective instructions, suggesting that partnership capital accounts would have to report on the tax basis vs. GAAP or any other method of reporting. This change in capital account reporting meant that many partnerships would have to spend considerable amounts of time calculating, or re-calculating, capital accounts in order to comply with the tax basis reporting requirement.
Fortunately, in IRS Notice 2019-66, the IRS acknowledged that some taxpayers may not be able to comply with the requirement to report tax basis capital accounts in a timely manner for 2019. Therefore, the IRS postponed the revision to 2020.
What does this mean for you?
For tax year 2019, you are permitted to report members’ capital accounts by the same method as tax year 2018 or you may opt to change to a tax basis method. For most partnerships, that requirement is just an extension of the last year’s reporting method.
For example: If an organization previously reported its partners’ capital account on the GAAP method of accounting, that partnership can file in 2019 using the GAAP method capital account.
For tax year 2020, all partnerships will need to calculate and present tax basis capital accounts. This is not to say that you are prohibited from tracking partnership capital accounts in the partnership books in a method other than tax basis. The regulation simply requires that capital accounts on Schedule K-1 to be reported on the tax basis.
The process of calculating a partner’s capital account based on a tax basis, instead of the current method used, can be cumbersome and complicated. Many partnerships have decided to collaborate with public accountants to ease the process of converting to tax basis capital account reporting. If you have questings about your organization, how these changes impact you, or if you would like to know more about this topic, please contact your local Blue & Co. advisor.


How to give love to satin?
Our favorite season has finally arrived!! Among the spring-summer 2022 key trends, we find the flamboyant and delicate satin offered in the new collection by Melissa Nepton! Dresses, jumpsuits, tops, pants, skirts, shorts, all types of clothing can now be found in your wardrobes to enhance (soon) your tanned skin.
The downside! You too are one of those women who love to wear mats.ères scintillating but who dread the unavoidable stage of the'clothing care? This crucial moment où l'we thoughtchit twice before s'venture towards disaster for fear of'further damage our precious livesgriff mentsés* “Made in Montreal » and ofnichDesigned especially for you by Boutique B.
We have a secret to tell you! After reading and putting into practice our recommendations, satin will have no more secrets for you and you will be the friend who will advise your loved ones how to restore the shine of their satin fabrics!
A little history! Satin is a weave, not a raw material like silk.
Satin is a complex fabric obtained by a enter herecement of different yarn materials. That's what makes it so beautiful. This weaving art born in China two millennia ago was mainly made of silk. This fabric, prized by Italian aristocrats, was exported in the twelfthth century in Europe for the manufacture of upholstery, then clothing. It is in the XIXth century that this fluid and sensual fabric invites itself to perfect our underwear. Its composition then changed over time. Nowadays, we find blends of fibers such as silk, nylon, polyester and rayon.
Care of the satin by you
Satin is a fragile but easily washable fabric. First of all, you must read its composition and the maintenance method recommended on the label of your garment. If it says "dry clean", it's best to take it to the cleaners. To keep all its shine, it is important to always wash and iron it to the'upside down, not to'wring with strong twists and dry itexpensive flat out of direct sunlight and excessive heat. Some weavings allow machine cleaning, others must be hand washed gently and sparingly.
Machine wash on gentle cycle
- Wash upside down
- Mild laundry detergent
- Delicate cycle 30
- Cold water
- Wash inside out in cold water, pressing gently
- Mild laundry detergent or baby shampoo
- A little white vinegar and sugar
- Soak for 3-5 minutes maximum without rubbing
- Rinse with cold water
- Wring without twists
- Avoid twisting the garment with great pressure
Avoid putting satin clothes in a dryer. Always dry the item without large twists. Ideally, blot it between two clean, dry towels or lay it flat on a towel, then roll it up, applying pressure to loosen it up.evacuate the'excèsd'water. Finish by laying the garment flat on another towel and air drying.'air, to'away from direct sunlight or excessive heat.
To maintain its shine, before ironing, pass asponge soakee d'water with vinegar'back of garment still damp. Then, iron the items still at the'upside down on a medium/light (delicate) setting and no steam, making quick strokes, never allowing the iron to s'dwell too long on one place.
For women "Queens of tasks" of fat and wine during happy hours or any other festive moment. There are three other age-old methods for cleaning satin.
- To absorb as much grease as possible, blot the stain with a white cloth
- Cover the stain with polenta or flour
- Leave on for an hour to maximize the absorption of the'oil
- Frot to the'help d'a brush with soft, flexible bristles
- Machine wash if'Item is washable following manufacturer's directions
In the event thatù l'item is not. it is necessary to entrust it to a spécialist.
- Cover the stain with dish soap and let it dry for a few hours
- Then machine wash cycle delicit (if indicated on the label) following the manufacturer's instructions
