I have the P229 in 40. The nice thing about buying the 40S&W is that you can convert it to a 357sig or 9mm with a simple barrel change. The 357 sig uses the 40S&W magazines and if you convert to 9mm you have to buy 9mm magazines.
My P229 had a DAK trigger when I purchased and I converted it to DA/SA. I like the DA/SA much more than the DAK.
ya the one i rented was a DA/SA but trigger still feels a bit heavy, i think i'm just so used to my beretta that i compare every gun i shoot against it. I have probably shot over 2000+ rounds out of my Beretta since shooting any other gun.
do you guys think it would be wise for me to sell my Beretta 96 to get a glock 19? in your guys oppinion, do you feel like thats an upgrade or a downgrade?
What sold me on the P226 Elite was the short reflex trigger, which translates into less hand movement when shooting in the range. It is a well made gun and quite purdy.
Does anyone have any different information on that?
I am getting a CZ rami 9mm tomorrow never had a CZ just wanted one . My next Sig will be a 226:smt1099

A geographical indication (GI) identifies products or goods whose quality or reputation originates from the geographical area in which they are produced. Geographic indicators are used to indicate the origin of products – for example, Scotch whisky originating from Scotland – for both consumers and producers alike. Geographic indicators help producers differentiate their products based on location, ensuring that goods with high-quality characteristics are protected from being misrepresented as goods with similar characteristics form elsewhere.
Geographical indications are becoming increasingly popular as they offer unique benefits to producers while helping consumers recognize the origin of their products. In this article, we’ll be taking an in-depth look at the concept of geographical indications and their importance in protecting and promoting intellectual property rights.
What Are Geographical Indications and How Do They Work?
A geographical indication (GI) is a sign used on products that have a specific geographical origin and possesses qualities, reputation, or any other characteristics that are essentially linked to its origin.
In simpler terms, it’s an identifier between a product and its place of origin. Think of GIs as a form of brand protection—they prevent others from manufacturing, selling, or labeling the same product while misrepresenting it as originating from another region.
For example, Kanchi Pattu. Not only do GIs protect products from misrepresentation, but they also help enhance the product’s prestige and value in the market by highlighting unique characteristics associated with its origin.
The History and Evolution of Geographical Indications
GI’s first appeared in the 18th century when some European countries started protecting their geographical products by allowing them exclusive rights to use the names. This concept has evolved over time, but its main purpose has remained the same: to promote the communities that have historically held these unique traditions.
Today, not only do GI’s help protect the intellectual property (IP) rights of small-scale producers and farmers, but they also help differentiate premium products from other similar items. For example, real Champagne comes from France with a designated geographical label that sets it apart from sparkling wines elsewhere. This helps consumers buy with confidence knowing that they are getting the product or service associated with its specific origin.
Benefits and importance of Geographical Indications
GI is a powerful tool for helping countries promote their culture and traditions, as well as for economic development. It’s also been used to give producers of artisanal products an edge in the marketplace, and by giving special recognition to products from certain regions, producers have an easier time competing in a global market.
To summarize, here are the main benefits of GI for IP rights:
- Protecting traditional know-how and promoting innovation
- Providing economic benefits to producers of artisanal products
- Giving artists the recognition they deserve
- Allowing producers to compete in the global market
Challenges Associated With the Protection of Geographical Indications
Protecting geographical indications is not without its challenges. Even though lawmakers and regulators may understand the importance of protecting GIs, there are still a few challenges associated with it.
Weak Enforcement Mechanisms
Although the TRIPS Agreement provided strong protections for GIs, it lacks mechanisms to enforce them effectively. In fact, many countries lack the legal infrastructure to protect their GIs, not to mention their resources that can be used for enforcement activities.
Confusion With Other Types of Intellectual Property
In addition to weak enforcement mechanisms, there’s confusion between geographical indications and other types of intellectual property rights like trademarks, which can make it difficult to protect GIs from being infringed upon or copied.
Misappropriation by Multinational Corporations
Another challenge with protecting geographical indications is that many multinational corporations have taken advantage of GIs by misappropriating them and using them in a manner not intended by originators. For example, a company may use a GI in a product that has nothing to do with the originator or its original geographic region.
Since geographical indicators represent not just regional areas but also the culture and history of those areas, it’s important that governments seek solutions that will protect GIs from misuse or misappropriation by multinationals.
Examples of Registered Geographical Indications
When it comes to geographical indications, there are some that are renowned and well-established, while others may come as a bit of a surprise. Here are a few examples of some famous products with registered geographical indications:
Few alcoholic beverages can compete with the sparkling bubbles and complex flavors of French Champagne. It is primarily produced in the Champagne region around Reims and Epernay, France.
Elegant black tea leaves grown in the high mountain gardens in India’s Darjeeling district have a unique flavor, color, and aroma that are protected by Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée (AOC). This means that tea leaves harvested outside of this district cannot be called Darjeeling tea.
These impressive examples demonstrate how geographic indications help protect intellectual property rights in different parts of the world. Not only do they guarantee consumers they’re getting genuine products, but they also help promote companies’ reputations as well as their locally-grown goods.
How to protect your geographical indications
Geographical indications (GIs) can be a great way to set your products apart from the competition and protect your intellectual property rights. But to make sure your GIs are protected, you need to know how they work.
Here’s how you can protect your GIs:
Registering with the Trademark Office: To start off, you’ll need to register with the trademark office in every country where you want to use the GI. This is important as it allows you to start protecting your GI right away and gives you the right to take legal action against anyone who infringes on it.
Make sure your product is special: It’s important that your product or service is distinct enough from other similar products or services in that area, otherwise, it won’t qualify as a GI and won’t be eligible for protection.
Establishing a corporate identity: It is important that when registering for a GI, you also create a corporate identity by creating trademarks and logos for your product as this will help differentiate it from others in the region and help protect it from infringement.
Monitoring market activity: Lastly, make sure you monitor the market regularly so that any potential infringements are caught early on before they cause any serious damage to your brand or reputation.
By taking these steps, you can ensure that no one takes advantage of or tries to use your geographical indications without permission – allowing your company to enjoy all the benefits of having a GI associated with its name.
Registration of GI products
Also, many countries require the registration of a product before it can be protected as a GI product. This process allows producers to demonstrate that their product meets certain standards and that its production is subject to certain restrictions – such as using particular ingredients or special processing/preparation methods – which must be used in order to produce the product.
Legal Regulations on Geographical Indications
GIs in Law
Legally, geographical indications are protected by trademark law which is specific legislation created to protect certain kinds of intellectual property rights– such as a geographical indication.
It’s safe to say that GIs have a relevant role in protecting intellectual property rights. While there are still challenges to overcome in the implementation, GIs are key for economic and cultural protection, allowing local and regional food products to shine and rake in profits for small producers and local economies.
GIs also level a playing field where traditionally disadvantaged producers can get recognition for their work, and this, in turn, allows these small businesses to gain an edge over their multinational counterparts. GIs are a vital tool for countries to protect their local goods and products, and promoting them is key for the sustainability of IP rights.

Xiaomi works on an expensive smartphone
The Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi has made a name for itself by releasing cheap smartphones that come with some really nice specs. The latest company flagship, which goes by the name of Mi5 is not an exception – the top version of the Mi5 has 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal memory and sells for just USD 410.
Xiaomi, however, seems to have become tired of making just budget smartphones so the company will shoot higher with a new flagship device that is reported to have a price of at least USD 599. The yet nameless smartphone is a part of the company’s strategy to enter the market of premium smartphones. Some analysts speculate that this smartphone will be the Mi Note 2, which is expected to have a two-sided curved pressure sensitive display, a fingerprint reader and the best hardware there is. This is, however, just speculation.
The upcoming premium smartphone is expected to arrive by the end of the year. Xiaomi will, however, continue to offer budget-oriented handsets.

Therapist Walk Fine Line In Reporting Violent Plans
(CNN) — Confidentiality is paramount between a patient and a therapist, but it’s not ironclad — confession to a crime, or the possibility of a potential crime, is not supposed to remain a secret.
“There is no clear-cut rule that psychiatrists are ever taught, but frankly, the bar is set very low in terms of breaking confidentiality,” says Xavier Amador, a clinical psychologist and adjunct professor of psychology at Columbia University’s Teachers College. “If there is any certain specific threat made, you have an obligation to report it.”
Lynne Fenton, a psychiatrist treating accused Colorado movie theater gunman James Holmes, 24, was so concerned about his behavior that she contacted several members of the University of Colorado’s Behavior Evaluation and Threat Assessment team, known as BETA, which is responsible for evaluating potential threats, CNN affiliate KMGH reported Wednesday.
“Fenton made initial phone calls about engaging the BETA team” in “the first 10 days” of June but it “never came together” because in the period Fenton was having conversations with team members, Holmes began the process of dropping out of school, a source told KMGH.
Sources told KMGH that when Holmes withdrew from school, the team “had no control over him.”
But Gene Deisinger, deputy chief of police at Virginia Tech and head of the school’s threat assessment team, says, “We don’t close a case solely due to someone leaving the university.”
“The decision to close a case is made based on assessment that the person no longer poses a threat of violence or significant disruption to the campus or to any other identifiable target,” he says.
However, Deisinger, a former clinical psychologist, added that without knowing more details, it’s impossible to draw conclusions about the University of Colorado’s actions.
There remains a gray area for clinicians when it comes to flagging concerns about a patient. Simply put, it comes down to a therapist’s interpretation about how specific a patient is when talking about violent thoughts or plans.
A specific threat means the patient clearly identified a targeted person or group, or gave specific details like a location or a time frame.
“If you have a patient who says, ‘I’m planning to kill my parents,’ that’s the far end of the spectrum and would trigger a warning to the parents,” says Alta Charo, medical ethicist and legal professor at University of Wisconsin.
A nonspecific threat would be a patient venting that he or she is angry and feels like he or she could kill somebody, according to Charo.
In this gray area, a clinician’s professional judgment is key. They have to identify whether there is a sense of urgency, and if there is a likelihood of a patient acting on the thoughts. A patient’s history of violence, mental illness and substance abuse is also considered, according to the Journal of Family Practice.
Two California Supreme Court rulings, called Tarasoff I and II, shaped the ground rules for a clinician’s duty to warn and protect a patient from themselves, and/or a potential victim or crime from taking place.
The Tarasoff case arose when Prosenjit Poddar, a student at the University of California, Berkeley, told his therapist of his intention to kill fellow student, Tatiana Tarasoff.
The therapist informed campus police, who briefly detained the student, but released him after he appeared rational and promised to stay away from Tarasoff. No further action was taken, and Tarasoff was not warned of the potential threat. Two months later, in October 1969, Poddar stabbed and killed Tarasoff.
The decision in Tarasoff I says therapists have a duty to warn a potential victim of a threat, even if it violates doctor-patient confidentiality. Tarasoff II, an extension of the first ruling, says the therapist also has an obligation to protect the person by alerting the appropriate law enforcement agency.
At Virginia Tech, with more than 30,000 students, faculty and staff, the core group of the Threat Assessment Team is comprised of nine individuals from different parts of the university, including school police, academic officials and representatives from counseling services.
In a typical year, Deisinger says, his group responds to “350 to 400” reports of troubling behavior. In most cases, he says, a simple investigation finds no danger.
A federal law known as the Clery Act requires schools to report to law enforcement any criminal acts on campus, and to report any immediate threats to health or safety.
But disturbing behavior often doesn’t reach that threshold, according to Steven Healy, the former director of public safety at Princeton University who helped develop a widely used threat assessment program, using a grant from the Department of Justice.
“The majority of the cases reported are just unusual communication or odd behavior that doesn’t break the law,” says Healy. “We aim for early intervention with a simple conversation to assess the threat, or to push the person towards mental health services.”
The bar is higher for psychologists, psychiatrists and other medical professionals to report to police. Failing to identify potential harm by a clinician would not be a criminal offense, according to Amador, but it can open a door for a civil lawsuit if they did not disclose the information.
All states require therapists to inform patients before a session that their confidentiality agreement may be revoked if it is determined the patient is a threat to themselves or others. But details vary from state to state on who the therapist is required to inform.
In Colorado, doctors, nurses, mental health professionals and their staffs are required to break confidentiality and warn a potential victim and alert law enforcement if a serious threat is suspected.

If you post a comment today and tomorrow, you’ll be in the running
for a free download of this book! I’ll announce a winner on Thursday.
When I wrote Ride A Cowboy, I didn’t know I’d be hooked on writing those sexy men. From the first line, writing the story about a woman who moved to the Hill Country of Texas was the easiest thing I’d ever written, because I was that girl. I knew those men. My back yard butted up against a working ranch. The book came out in February 2006, and if you look at my “Western” section on my books page, you can see what an addiction to Wranglers and a slow-talkin’ man I have.
“…Ooooh is this hot! So very descriptive in the sheer need to be loved, to be not only desired sexually by the other. Proving to Katelyn that all men aren’t like her ex, Daniel gives of himself without any hesitation. What a man! This is a keeper, fellow readers, and not just for those dedicated “sexy cowboy” fans.”
5 Hearts, The Romance Studio
“…This is one book I could not put down from beginning to end!…I have to compliment Ms. Devlin on her writing prowess. She roped this reviewer with her playground of words, expertise of emotional perception, and exceptional writing ability.”
5 Kisses, Romance Divas
Katelyn Carter came to rural Texas to lick her wounds and start over after her failed marriage, but a sexy young cowboy seems determined to show her that love is still in the cards for this single librarian.
Sheriff’s deputy Daniel Bodine answers a 911 call to remove a rattlesnake from his new neighbor’s bedroom. What he finds is an embarrassed Katelyn, dressed in little more than her pretty pink blushes. One little omission later, and he’s working for the lady as her handyman.
Burned once by a man, Katelyn fights her growing attraction but finds Daniel more temptation than she can resist. When he shows her he knows his way around a woman’s body as well as he does a hammer and a saw, she takes a walk on the nasty side, vainly hoping she can keep her heart free of entanglement.
The house Katelyn Carter had bought sight unseen was kind of like her—weathered by storms and in need of a lot of TLC.
After a quick glance around the empty road, she set her truck into park and stared. She let her eyes blur and tried to imagine how the old house must have looked once upon a time before the harsh South Texas sun baked its exterior. She wasn’t encouraged. Even seen from behind her dirty windshield, she could tell the one-story ranch needed a lot of work, and at the very least, a fresh coat of paint.
A lone tear streaked down her face, surprising her, and she sniffed. One last cry—she deserved that much. Then no more feeling sorry for herself. She had too much to do and a whole new life stretching in front of her.
A loud honk sounded and Katelyn swung her gaze to her rearview mirror to find that a dusty, older model pick-up truck had pulled up behind her. She swiped away the tears with the back of her hand, and then stuck her arm out the window to wave the driver past.
Instead, the driver-side door opened and a tall Texan in faded jeans and a cream-colored cowboy hat stepped onto the pavement.

How often to married couples have sex has been a question a large number of people have wondered about for ages. The answer for this issue is not necessarily easy to figure out. A lot of things play in to the number of occasions a small number of has sexual activity, including period and relationship status.
Older couples, for example , are more likely to own less love-making than 10 years younger ones. This is especially true for many who live along. According to just one study, 8% of couples older than 50 experience love-making at least once per month.
At this time there is not a exact scientific disciplines as to how often to married people have sex. A few have it merely a few times a month, although some have it often. It’s important https://vocal.media/humans/online-dating-for-the-win for each specific to find the correct balance. For almost all, once a week https://married-dating.org/marital-affair-review/ is a good consistency.
One study from the Society for Personality and Social Mindset found that couples who may have sex once a week are happier than those who have this more often. In addition, they found that if 1 partner has a sex difficulty, he or she might want to consider consulting a sex specialist.
A further study from the University of Chicago Press uncovered that married couples receive intimate seven times a month. This is a decrease from 10 years previously. Nonetheless, most studies show that an average American adult provides sex once to twice a week.
The length of your matrimony also plays a role in how often to married couples have sex. For example , couples who have been together for a long time have more sex than patients who have been committed for the short amount of time.

Cottage Cheese Scrambled Eggs
Published Sep 26, 2023, Updated Nov 21, 2023
This post may include affiliate links. Thank you for your support.
These cottage cheese eggs are a great way to switch up your morning breakfast! They’re super easy to make and result in fluffy, creamy eggs that are high in protein.
Why settle for plain scrambled eggs when you can upgrade your breakfast game with cottage cheese scrambled eggs? This creamy, protein-packed dish takes your morning routine to the next level, adding not just flavor but also a delightful texture to your plate. These might just be the fluffiest scrambled eggs I’ve ever tried!
Why You’ll Love These Eggs
- Quick and Easy: In just about 10 minutes, you’ve got a gourmet-style breakfast that’s far from ordinary.
- Protein Boost: The addition of cottage cheese amps up the protein content to 23 grams!
- Flavor Depth: The cottage cheese gives the eggs a richer, creamier texture while the chives add a hint of herbaceous flavor. The pepper and sea salt make sure it’s seasoned to perfection.
- Versatile: Serve it with toast, on top of a salad, or alongside some roasted vegetables—the options are endless!
- eggs: two large eggs are the main star, providing a rich source of protein and flavor.
- cottage cheese: adds creaminess and additional protein to the eggs.
- black pepper and sea salt: simple seasonings that make a big difference.
- olive or avocado oil: for cooking the eggs and adding a hint of richness.
- fresh chives: for a pop of color and a subtle oniony flavor.
How to Make
This scrambled eggs recipe is unlike any other, and the secret lies in using full-fat cottage cheese. Not only does it make for the creamiest, best scrambled eggs you’ve ever had, but it’s also a fantastic low carb breakfast option. Here’s how to make them:
Whisk eggs and cottage cheese together in a small mixing bowl. Add a crack of pepper and a sprinkle of salt.
Heat oil in a small nonstick skillet over medium-low heat.
Once hot, carefully pour the egg mixture into the pan.
When the edges start to set, use a rubber spatula to scramble the eggs. Move them towards the center of the pan, continually until the eggs have set and are no longer runny. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
Remove from heat, garnish with fresh chives, and serve.
These cottage cheese eggs are delicious and so simple to make, but that doesn’t mean you can’t add something extra for personal preferences. Here’s a few ideas that could work well.
- Herbs: Fresh herbs or dried herbs like basil, dill, or parsley can add a new dimension of flavor. You can mix them into the egg mixture or sprinkle them on top before serving.
- Spinach: For a nutritional boost, stir in some baby spinach leaves just as the eggs begin to set.
- Mushrooms: Sauteed mushrooms could add a nice earthy flavor and textural contrast.
- Bell Peppers: Dice some bell peppers and toss them in for a splash of color and crunch.
- Onions or Shallots: For an added zing, include some finely chopped onions or shallots. You could sauté them in the pan before adding the egg mixture.
- Smoked Salmon: For a luxurious twist, lay some thinly sliced smoked salmon over the eggs just before they’re done.
- Tomatoes: Chopped cherry tomatoes or sun-dried tomatoes can add both moisture and a tangy kick.
- Hot Sauce or Salsa: If you like it spicy, a drizzle of hot sauce or a spoonful of salsa can certainly elevate the dish.
- Cheese & Butter: If you like using butter with your eggs, you could substitute this for the olive oil, and for some extra cheesy topping, try adding some grated parmesan cheese at the end.

You could enjoy these eggs for a quick breakfast or as a savory side for a more extensive breakfast. Here’s some options that would taste great with this recipe;
- Avocado Toast: A slice of hearty whole-grain toast topped with mashed avocado complements the richness of the eggs.
- Fresh Fruit: A side of fresh berries, banana slices, or a citrusy fruit salad can add a sweet and refreshing balance.
- Green Smoothie: A green smoothie pairs excellently with these scrambled eggs for a healthy kickstart to your day.
- Bacon & Sausage: Crispy bacon or turkey sausage can add a savory option to go alongside these scrambled eggs.
- Something Sweet: If you’re hosting a larger breakfast you may want to add something sweet like these Almond Flour Pancakes or try these Blueberry Yogurt Muffins.
- Roasted Veggies: For a more substantial, brunch-style serving, consider a side of roasted sweet potato or asparagus.
- Hot Beverages: Whether it’s a cup of hot coffee, tea, or even a mimosa, the right beverage can make this dish part of a perfect breakfast or brunch setup.
How to Store Leftovers
These cottage cheese scrambled eggs are best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, place them in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 1-2 days. Reheating in the microwave is the quickest way to enjoy them again, or on the stove over medium heat but be careful not to overcook them.

Blink-182’s journey has not always been smooth sailing. Like many bands that have stood the test of time, they have faced their share of challenges. The band has taken several hiatuses in their career, some due to internal conflicts among the members.

Music Review: Geri Allen - 'Grand River Crossings: Motown and Motor City Inspirations'
Published 10:00 pm, Monday, August 26, 2013
Listening to the latest solo album from pianist extraordinaire Geri Allen is much akin to listening to a classical virtuoso in recital, with at least one significant difference. Where the classical recital is all about technique and interpretation, what Geri Allen, a consummate jazz artist, is all about is technique and interpretation sure, but even more importantly, creation in the moment. An album like Allen's Grand River Crossings: Motown & Motor City Inspirations, her third solo effort in recent years, is an opportunity to listen in to a true artist in the act to creation. It is an opportunity not to be missed.
The album, which in some sense is a loving gift to Detroit, the city in which she was raised, takes its title from Grand River Avenue, a busy major thoroughfare. Crossing Grand River Avenue alone on her own, Allen explains in the liner notes, was her first major right of passage. What better title for still another solo flight? Add to that a menu of tunes culled from what has become the Detroit songbook as well as an original or two from Allen herself as well as some other native sons, and you have the makings of a feast for the ear. Given the somber news coming out of the Motor City in recent months, it is refreshing, to say the least, to hear someone show some love for the place.
Of the 15 tracks on the disc, there are three short interpolations by Allen: "Grand River Crossings I and II" and "In Appreciation." The first two are introspective pieces, while the last is a driving nod to the Motown sound. There are also four tracks featuring guest artists. Trumpeter Marcus Belgrave joins Allen on his own piece, the impressionistic fantasia, "Space Odyssey." He is also featured on "The Smart Set" and the swinging "Nancy Joe" which closes the album. Alto sax player David McMurray plays with Allen on the Holland-Dozier-Holland tune, "Itching in My Heart," a relatively short exploration of the rocker that may leave you wanting more.
Allen's solo takes on the Motown classics, on the other hand, are more than satisfying. Her work on "Tears of a Clown" is sensitively elegant and "That Girl" is a lyrical jewel. She finds all sorts of latent ideas in "Baby I Need Your Lovin'" and her treatment of Frank Wilson's "Stoned Love" is something of a revelation. Marvin Gaye's "Inner City Blues" gives her an opportunity for a change of pace and "Save the Children" is nothing short of a passionate emotional challenge.

Parents may think their kids don't know the value of a dollar, but a sampling of students who earn and spend their cash on the Kenai Peninsula may prove them wrong.
Preston Wendt, a senior at Kenai Central High School, saves 90 percent of his earnings from his job at the Kambe Theater for next year's college expenses.
Skyview student Hannah Ulen, who was found scrubbing dishes at River City Books in Soldotna, doesn't squander her money, but budgets for a car that is hers by way of her own labor.
Natalie Semmens, a KCHS senior, has worked summer jobs ever since she learned to ride a bicycle. At one time, she sold a self-published newspaper to neighbors simply to satisfy her drive to make some change. Her summer vacations have been filled by working on the slime line, at gas stations, as part of the Youth Restoration Corps and at The Heritage Place, where she experienced nursing duties for a possible future career.
"Natalie has always been motivated to earn money," said her father Larry Semmens, who is also the finance director for the city of Kenai. He said he not only genetically instilled saving tendencies in his children, but also raised them to be financially responsible.
Many teens, though, say they have learned to budget dollars through personal experience rather than lessons taught.
"One of my biggest fears is to have to call home for money (after high school)," said Jen Luton, a KCHS senior and five-year employee of the Kenai Arby's. Luton has gathered financial stability through her own ups and downs dealing with money. After bouncing checks, owning two cars and blowing paychecks on CDs, Luton has gained a better understanding of how to buy and maintain money in equal balance.
"I don't ever want to be in debt," she adds.
When it comes to teen's finances, an "allowance" is becoming a thing of the past. Surveys show nearly 50 percent of teen-agers are not provided with a weekly allowance.
Today's up-and-coming young adults not only claim to pay for the majority of their weekend entertainment and clothes, but they also say they don't have mom and dad to fall back on for postsecondary education expenses.
Former Halcyon Spalon employee Caitlin Nelson was pleasantly surprised when she ended up saving more than she originally expected.
"I hoped to save some for college and the winter," Nelson said.
Education may be one reason teens save; independence is another.
Robin Mida, a 17-year-old employee of Ultimate Tan, found a part-time job because, "it's nice to have your own money," she said, referring to the freedom it brings to spend how much she wants on what she wants.
Despite their responsible attitude toward money, teens appear to be unafraid to open their wallets when the opportunity arises.
"If I have money, I want to spend it," admits Coral Hoffman of Soldotna.
Nationally, each quarter, "teens spend billions," according to USA Weekend magazine's 12th annual teen survey. One hundred percent of randomly chosen interviewed teens put more money toward their wheels and their requirements than anything else. Even college ranks third in saving priorities.
In the work place
While earning money for their various wants and needs, teens fill an important niche in the labor market.
It's possible that without young people filling entry-level jobs in Kenai and Soldotna, the local economy would be severely lacking, said Kenai Mayor John Williams.
"It's all a part of it," said Williams said, referring to minimum wage work available for teens in the community.
Fast food restaurants, big retail outlets, beauty salons, tanning facilities and book stores -- all of which are major work providers for teens -- definitely contribute to income and earnings of the twin cities.
Cecilia Daniel, assistant manager for Big Kmart, said she appreciates teen employees.
"(Teens) bring enthusiasm into the store," she said, especially in helping customers with a positive attitude. Not only do they provide a younger generation of interests, but they are just as reliable and trustworthy as adults, she said.
Big K fills half of its register, shelf-stocking and Little Caesar's positions year-round with 16 to 18 year olds.
Not only do the teens work in the store, they circulate their earnings there, and, better yet, bring friends who also purchase, said Daniel.
Another big employer for teens is the Kenai Recreation Center where students have a variety of duties.
"(Their) responsibilities include everything from working the snack bar to custodial positions and decorating," said Bob Frates, Kenai's director of Parks and Recreation.
The rec center seeks out teen workers for their opinions and ideas for dances, upcoming activities and planned projects to round up youths from the community.
"We get a first-hand report of the things popular with kids. ... We rely on teens for their insight."
In some cases, a job isn't all work. Some teens find it a pleasurable way to socialize. Hoffman mentioned that her job of three months at Papa Murphy's in Soldotna doesn't have anything to do with her need for cash.
"My friends work here," she said.
Although they spend more on entertainment, vehicles and clothes than anyone else, saving is a significant part in teens' budgets. The evidence shows they know the value of a dollar.
"... Today's teen-agers are highly sensitized to the role of money in their lives. More than half say it is very important when it comes to getting a good education, choosing a job and succeeding in life," according to USA Weekend magazine's teen survey.
Larry Semmens agreed: "I am really pleased when I see young people doing a good job. It has a positive impact on the community."

Describe human rights violations and their causes
Every person is born with certain rights, regardless of race, gender, nationality, color, religion, sexual orientation, or any other status. After horrible things happened during World War II, members of the United Nations came together to make the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. To promote and protect humans against human rights violations. But, unfortunately, you can see nearly every day horrifying examples of human rights violations like ethnic cleansing, heinous torture, child abuse, killings of men and women, and other things that go against human rights.
Even though the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was signed in 1948 and certain covenants were made for children, women, and the disabled, these crimes still occur. This crime is usually done by the government directly or indirectly or by people or groups. The American-African fight is a prominent example of this infringement. However, this blog will explore some of the worst human rights violations done in the world.
Top 5 Cases Reported of Human Rights Violations
Human right has been violated since the time of apes. As a result, several cases of Human rights violations are reported daily. That is either caused by a governmental dispute or a fight against each other. Still, most of these violent cases are unreported. However, below are the top 10 worst cases of human rights violations that occurred worldwide.
1. Child Slaves in Lord Resistance Army
The Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA), operating under the command of Joseph Kony, was formed more than twenty years ago. Initially, it intended to establish a theocratic state. The LRA maintains organizational cohesion through a mixture of violence justified by a cultic ideology. Which posits individuals outside the LRA as being impure and has to be deserving of death
Except for a few senior officers, almost everyone in the LRA is breaching the code of human rights violations. Since the early 1990s, the LRA’s leaders have forced people, especially children, to join the group. Girls and boys kidnapped are beaten into submission and sometimes forced to do horrible things to other people. They are also used as soldiers, cooks, porters, and spies. During the fighting, many children are killed or hurt. Others are killed because they refuse to do what they are told or try to escape.
2. Underage disabled girls force-sterilized
Did you know what sterilization is? Well, it’s a process where surgical tools are used to stop someone from having children. Till 2014, it was still legal in Australia to sterilize disabled girls under 18 without their consent. Forced sterilization is legal and approved by the government of Australia. It is mostly done to girls, women, and people born with different sex traits or disabilities. The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities is an international human rights treaty that gives a basis for protecting the rights of people with disabilities and has specific articles on the issue of involuntary sterilization, helping women from being victims of human rights violations.
3. Afghan Women’s Vaginal Examination
Every time a girl is arrested on a morality charge in Afghanistan, she is forced to have an invasive vaginal exam to test her “virginity.” Afghanistan has been a patriarchal country for a long time. Women’s rights have been taken away by cultural practices that have been popularized and made to seem moral. Because these customs are mostly about how women should act, Afghan women, face inequality of human rights violations daily.
One of the most dangerous things is “virginity testing.” Many women have to undergo painful tests at some point. The procedure involves a doctor or nurse putting two fingers into a woman’s vagina, often against her will and against her will. This is done to check if the woman’s hymen is still there. One might wonder why someone would make a woman go through an attack on her most private parts. The bad answer is that virginity tests are done to ensure that a woman has never been sexually active with a man.
4. Child Labor in Industrial Revolution
During the Industrial Revolution, kids as young as six worked up to 19 hours a day in horrible, dangerous conditions for little or no pay. During most of the Industrial Revolution, it was common for children to work. Estimates show that in the early 1800s, more than half of the workers in some British factories were younger than 14. In 1870, more than 750,000 children under 15 worked in the United States. Most entrepreneurs hire children because they are cheap and can do a lot of work. However, just to save money, these industrialists have breached the law of human rights violations.
5. Slavery in the United States
Africans were brought to the American colonies and enslaved as property within a few decades. This was the start of more than two hundred years of slavery. Enslaved people who made their masters unhappy were beaten. The church told people that slavery was God’s will. Scientists “proved” that blacks were less evolved than whites, making them subspecies of humans. When the cotton gin was made in 1793, it made slavery even more important to the South’s economy.
By the middle of the 19th century, the growth of the United States westward and the growth of an anti-slavery movement in the North led to a national debate about slavery that helped start the American Civil War (1861-65). Even though the Union victory freed the country’s four million slaves, slavery has left its mark on American history, from the chaos of Reconstruction (1865–1877) to the rise of the civil rights movement in the 1950s. Unfortunately, however, this breaching of human rights violations of Americans over Africans is still happening in this world, as we have witnessed in the George Floyd case in recent years.
6. Human Trafficking
Around the world, the international sex trade is still a huge problem. People trafficked are often lured in by lies about good jobs and better lives. Women are especially vulnerable to trafficking because of the worldwide differences in status and opportunities. Human trafficking is a new form of slavery in which women, men, and children are forced to work against their will after being recruited or taken in. Trafficking victims often face physical and mental abuse, such as beatings, sexual abuse, not getting enough food or sleep, being threatened or their families, and being cut off from the rest of the world. All these factors lead to the case of human rights violations where men, women, and children don’t have their moral values.
Everyone is important, has value, and doesn’t deserve to face these human rights violations. However, by recognizing and respecting people’s human rights, we can show that we understand and value them for who they are. Human rights are a group of ideas about fairness and justice. They care about our freedom to make decisions about our lives and grow as people. They are about being able to live without fear, abuse, or discrimination.
Human rights are a group of basic rights that people from all over the world agree are important. These include the right to life, the right to a fair trial, the right not to be tortured or treated in any other cruel or inhuman way, the right to freedom of speech, the right to religious freedom, and the rights to health, education, employment, and a decent quality of life.

Desertification is an extremely complex phenomenon and varies greatly from each situation. Desertification in China is vastly different from desertification in Romania or Australia but the one thing they all have in common is the need to find a solution.
On a global scale, The United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD)has brought 195 nations/ parties together to “improve the living conditions for people in drylands, to maintain and restore land and soil productivity, and to mitigate the effects of drought.” , with a 10 year strategy “to forge a global partnership to reverse and prevent desertification/land degradation and to mitigate the effects of drought in affected areas in order to support poverty reduction and environmental sustainability”. They focus on bringing framework that governments can implement in regards to each country, and international cooperation by allowing more developed countries share their resources, technologies and discoveries, but also encourage a ‘bottoms-up’ approach with involving communities and individuals and educating about their specific situation and what can be done.
For example, at a more regional scale, The Savory Institute cofounder Allan Savory argues that while a lot of people point to livestock as a cause or at least a contributing factor to desertification, that livestock are vital in reversing desertification and that it would be impossible to fight desertification in the long term without large herds of livestock. See his interview here
At any level whether it be global or locally on one farm, revegetation and better land use is a key to combatting desertification, it is suggested in many of government plans of the UNCCD for many countries so we can gather that that these are fundamental solutions while other solutions depend on the locality, the severity, the resources available and of course the awareness of this ever increasing problem.
It is a difficult thing, thinking you are doing something about it and actually doing something about it, but once you have made it a habit, or way of life then your set and this is what many farmers and must do otherwise the sand will keep spreading.

Heather Small put on a big show for the first night of this year's Sunniside Live festival.
The M People singer performed some of the band’s hits which helped make her name including Moving On Up, as well as her own solo material including the anthemic Proud.
She shared the top of the bill for the first night of the festival which, for the first time in its three-year history has been extended to two days, with acid jazz legends Incognito, who had the 4,000-strong sell-out crowd dancing into the night.
Band leader and guitarist Bluey said: "We dedicate tonight to a little boy called Bradley Lowery. It's amazing how music and sport can bring people together."
Following the opening sets, which also included performances from dance act K Klass and DJ Allister Whitehead, the festival continues today with a programme of music running from noon until 10pm.
Headliners Happy Mondays will follow sets from The Farm and Chris Helme from The Seahorses, as well as home-grown acts Social Room and Lord Swans.
Sunderland father-and-son duo Nutopians will also perform after receiving thousands of votes in a Battle of the Bands contest to appear at the festival.
The Nutopians, made up of Ian Jackson, 52, and Phil Jackson, 20, received 4,100 online votes in the contest to find a local act to perform at the annual festival.
Organisers were inundated by requests from local bands to play at the event, which has always celebrated local talent while also bringing big names to the city, so they decided to put it to the public vote.
Speaking ahead of today’s performance, Ian, who is also in a well-known local tribute band called 1977, said: “We are excited to appear at Sunniside Live alongside some amazing acts, especially as it is in our home town. It’s the cherry on the cake.”
Sunniside Live is the brainchild of Sean Maddison and Helen Davies, who own Sunniside bars Bar Justice and Gin & Bear It, and Sean say he’s delighted at the response to this year’s festival.
Sean said: “The Friday night sold out and the Saturday looks like it will too, which is great. All we ask in future is that people buy their tickets early so we can book even bigger bands.
“It’s great to have the calibre of acts we have this year but that can only get bigger and better the more people support it. It’s not often you get acts such as Incognito and Happy Mondays playing in the heart of Sunderland city centre.”
Speaking about whether the festival has driven footfall to an often under-used area of the city centre, Sean said: “It has raised the profile of Sunniside 100% and it’s not just businesses here that benefit, the whole town does. Bars as far up as Green Terrace get people in who have been brought into the city by the festival.”
In light of the recent terror attack in Manchester, in which more than 20 people died at an Ariana Grande gig, extra security measures were taken at this year’s festival.

. Water boils at 120 °C in a pressure cooker
Water boils at 120 °C in a pressure cooker. Explain the reason
The boiling point of liquid increases with the increase in pressure and decreases with the decrease in pressure. At one atmospheric pressure, the boiling point of pure water is 1000 C. In a pressure cooker, steam is not allowed to escape out. The vapour pressure on water inside the cooker becomes nearly 1.75 times the atmospheric pressure. Thus water boils at about 1200 C to 1250 C due to increase in pressure.

Mandu: A saga of love
The Madhya Pradesh being heart of India can be a perfect holiday place. And I was newly posted to its commercial capital Indore, which is even called mini Mumbai.
Being new to the place I hardly know about the surroundings but I have heard about the historical places which surrounds this city. On my weekly off I decided to visit the historical place Mandu.
I had hired a car. At 5:00 am in morning started my short trip, it was bit cold as it had rained last night. The whole weather outside was very beautiful and fresh. The mist can be felt with the winds passing by. Sun was hiding under the black clouds. Roads were wet and smell of wet earth was making the journey beautiful.
The road from Indore to Mandu was good enough and there were fewer jerks. The car was moving on good speed. As I have started so at some eating joints our car stopped. I had breakfast and tea. It’s not very long journey. Heading towards Mandu I witnessed all moods of weather. Sometime it started raining and sometime the wind was just so lovely. As the place was coming nearer the green lush and huge mountains covered with all greenery was making me feel excited. Mandu greenery and beautiful landscape welcomes travellers with open arms.
The first place we visited at Mandu was Rani Roopmati mahal. The roads going towards the mahal was so amazing. Rounds and cuts between the mountains were giving me goosebumps. Green wet mountains and white tuft clouds were making it perfect picturesque. At first site I fall in love with this place. I had heard that Mandu should be visited in rainy season. The pleasant weather and attractive scenery makes place a perfect holiday spot.
There is also an interesting story behind this place. Baz Bhadur, king of Mandu had built a palace on the peak so Rani Roopmati can see river Narmada from there. There are many more stories which go with the palace. It is also said that she used to go there to meet her lover. View from this palace leaves spell bound, continuous blowing winds with fog and small water droplets is just so refreshing.
Mist covering green mountains, green bushes, open field makes place prefect. Top view from the place was retreat for the eyes. The palace or you can say pavilion is very beautiful, telling the love story of Baz Bhadur and Rani Roopmati. The long pavilion covers whole palace. The pavilion offers a spectacular sunset view. It is also said that some time ago the view of Narmada was very clear but with time the river has shifted and so the view. The whole palace has long pavilion and winds crossing from all directions. I don’t want to come back, the air was so fresh, and feeling of relaxation from the hustle and bustle of daily life was making me lazy.
With a sad mind I started to walk down to see other places.
Coming down I visited Baz Bhadur palace. From his palace water was supplied to Rani Roopmati palace. Brown, fungi, typical rainy smell was present inside the palace. But it is again a beautiful place to see and enjoy. The another exciting place which I saw was Jahaz Mahal or ship mahal, as it name suggest it looks like the same. The palace is in between two lakes and looks like the there is ship which is floating. The palace was built by Sultan Ghiyas-ud-din-Khilji.
Must say Mandu beauty left me spellbound. The clouds were so clear, transparent and white. The misty fog with small drops of rain coming from anywhere was among the different moods of Mandu.
