Attorneys General Call On Trump To End Family Separation Policy
Jun 22, 2018, 04:01
Similarly in May, it was Mr. Sessions who announced that the Trump administration would step up prosecutions of parents who cross the USA border illegally with their children, separating families if necessary in hopes of deterring such crossings.
In the letter, the attorneys general argue that the policy of separation is not in the best interest of the children who end up at the border.
"What's happening on the border is having a direct impact on what's happening in New Jersey", New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir Grewal said in a statement.
The adults, many who are seeking asylum, will face criminal prosecution for illegal entry. "That makes it less likely crime victims and witnesses will come forward to work with law enforcement and that, in turn, makes our communities less safe".
"Put simply, the deliberate separation of children and their parents who seek lawful asylum in America is wrong", the letter states.
Surely even White House aides (not to mention Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen) must be upset that the president sent them out to lie and then pulled the rug out from under them.
- U.S. Rep. Kevin Yoder called on Attorney General Jeff Sessions to halt the separation of families during a crackdown on illegal entries, going further than any other member of Kansas' all Republican congressional delegation in expressing concerns.
Since President Donald Trump and his administration implemented its zero-tolerance policy at the border, more than 2,300 children have been forcibly removed and locked up from their parents, A.P. reports.
California Attorney General Xavier Becerra on Tuesday joined New Mexico Attorney General Hector H. Balderas and 19 attorneys general in demanding the U.S. Department of Justice immediately end its new "zero tolerance" immigration policy which separates children from their parents.
Q: Does this new policy specifically require that families are separated?
Wright said he does not want Sessions to be removed from the church. I appreciate the need to enforce and protect our worldwide boundaries, but this zero-tolerance policy is cruel.
Those who signed the complaint letter claim that Sessions' "tremendous social/political power", his role as a Sunday school teacher and the "severe and ongoing" effects of his actions compel them to call for accountability. "Splitting up parents and children is too harsh a penalty for what is commonly a misdemeanor offense", Magidson wrote in an editorial in the Houston Chronicle.
Mr Sessions announced the new policy would change the current law of charging first-time border crossers with a misdemeanour offence.
The Trump administration has announced plans to target products from China including machinery, electrical goods and vehicles. Mr Trump has threatened to put tariffs on an extra $200bn (£141bn) of Chinese goods , sparking fears of a trade war.
An AMC representative told The Verge that the company's new service was not intended as a direct challenge to MoviePass. AMC's Stubs A-List launches June 26, and it should be interesting to see how it does in comparison to Moviepass.
Mickelson's playing partner Andrew Johnston , who also struggled, told BBC Radio 5 Live: "His body acted quicker than his brain. They will be mindful that Arnold Palmer set a record US Open final-round comeback of seven shots when he won in 1960.
The Lakers aren't going to sit and wait around for players to sign with them this season, they are actively going out to get some. The 2018 NBA Draft is being held Thursday, and while the Spurs now hold the No. 18 selection, all eyes will be on Kawhi Leonard.
The move was a significant nod to William Harry's grandmother, Queen Elizabeth's role as head of the Church of England. Louis was born at the Lindo Wing of St Mary's Hospital in London's Paddington, on St George's Day.
I think ultimately, if that's Salah's ambition to play for Madrid, when the time comes, he will go", added Reddy. Thank you to everyone for the support. "We need to bear in mind that there is not only one player on the pitch.
With plenty of points to be won and lost, the title race is still very much on and Arsenal will be confident of bridging the gap. Defensively, Arsenal have improved since Shkodran Mustafi joined the club in the summer but there is still room for improvement.
Systrom said IGTV is built to be used on a smartphone, and boosts the time for videos from the previous limit of one minute. Citing 2017 data from Emarketer, Instagram noted that "these days, people are watching less TV and more digital video".
Bairstow smashed his fourth ODI century in 2018 and Hales took England past their old record with a six, the 21st of the innings. They had in fact set the previous record of 444-3 against Pakistan two years ago, passing that total by some distance.
US border authorities are executing the Trump administration's " zero tolerance " policy towards undocumented immigrants. President Trump himself said he hates the policy. "I hate the children being taken away", he said Friday.

Robbie Conal's Guerrilla Etiquette & Postering Guide
Robbie Conal's Guerrilla Etiquette and Postering Techniques is a 9 min. 44 sec. self-produced video guide that takes you through "basic training" with Robbie and his guerrilla postering volunteers. It begins at a "meet-and-greet" at Canter's Deli, in Los Angeles where Robbie introduces new volunteers to his guerrilla etiquette and tips on how go out and plaster the city with posters and glue in the middle of the night. He gives tips on where to poster, where NOT to put up posters, how to prepare your glue, brushes and posters, how to deal with law enforcement should you encounter them, and even what to wear, and what music to listen to when you go out. It's fun, it's exhilarating, and most of all it's very informative.

According to Responsys’ SVP of Emerging Channels Michael Della Penna, by 2020 there will be 75 billion devices connected to the Internet of Things. This isn’t people… our homes, our automobiles, our platforms, and even our medical devices are all developing comprehensive mobile and tablet applications with push notifications.
Responsys recently commissioned a mobile marketing survey of 1,200 U.S. consumers and found that 68 percent of consumers who have downloaded apps, have enabled the push notifications. Among younger consumers (18-34 year olds), it’s nearly 80 percent. As you’ll see in the infographic below, push is a channel that marketers should not be ignoring.
At issue, much like email, will be how intelligently marketers leverage push marketing. If the push notifications are not of value to the user, they’ll turn them off. I have a feeling that’s going to become very commonplace. I’ve actually sat down for an hour and disabled most of the applications that were sending push notifications to me… they simply weren’t important enough to be interrupted for.

Physical Description: This rather inconspicuous shrub grows to about 7 feet (2.1 meters) tall and about 12 feet (3.6 meters) wide. Trapper’s Ivy grows an extremely thick woody trunk made to withstand stresses. Its light green vines and soft oval leaves provide an extremely welcoming environment for foraging animals. Deep within the shrub small bright blue, berries grow, these berries are extremely sweet and give off an irresistible scent. These berries are surrounded by several hidden snares of ivy, each snare varies in size, smaller snares are generally found deeper within the plant. Each snare is laced with several sharp recurved thorns. Deep within the shrub, the leaves are broad and obscuring all vision and give off an extremely sweet smell. These shrubs grown in large colonies with a massive dense “queen” shrub in the center.
Diet: The sweet smells, delicious berries, and soft leaves of this plant hide a dark secret. This plant is carnivorous. It lures various animals and adventurers in with the promise of sweet food. When an animal enters the shrub, its size determines the method of capture. A small animal such as a mouse or bird gets grabbed by a single snare, the thorns work to both hold the struggling animal as well as inject it with a powerful toxin. The snaring vine contracts pulling the animal towards the center of the shrub. When it is pulled into the center, the large internal leaves close around it and begin to release strong digestive enzymes. The decomposing animal provides nutrients to the plant and helps it grow in poor soils. Larger animals are caught in a slightly different way. When a large animal is snared it begins to struggle until it stumbles onto another snare when this happens the first snare releases and the cycle continues until the animal is brought to the “Queen” bush. Once this happens the process is very similar to when a small animal is caught. When the Queen shrub digest the animal it will send nutrients to all other shrubs in the colony through a complex network of pale interconnected roots.
Ecology: Trapper’s Ivy grows in many places through the Americas, although it is commonly found where other plants can not readily grow such as in areas with poor soil and low levels of sunlight. They are an important predator in most regions hunting animals many others can not, and providing nutrients to otherwise poor soils. They have a symbiotic relationship with the Baumspringer, the plant providing shelter and food and the animal cleaning the plant and keeping it pest-free.
Lifecycle: Trapper’s ivy very rarely naturally propagates, every 10 years every Queen will produce extremely large, delicate, and beautiful gold and silver striped flowers. The flowers are incredibly pleasant-smelling and gently pulse with benign magic causing the flower to glow beautifully in the night. Once pollinated the flower will slowly shrink before becoming a large ball of soft silk-like threads. When the seeds mature they are attached to a thread and sent upon the wind to settle new lands. The Queen takes 45 years to achieve full size, a fully mature grove can take 250 years to grow. When burned the queen will produce a small amount of magic and anti-flammable oils to coat its trunk and roots. When the fire is out it will attempt to regrow.
Relationship with humans: Most settlements actively purge existing Trapper’s ivy groves. Destroying the Queen’s trunk and roots when the burn is over. Some certain people have learned quite a bit of money can be made by harvesting their delicious berries, their beautiful flowers, and their soft silk. Usually, druids and others more connected with nature take up these jobs. The berries can fetch a decent price and are considered a great desert in most places. The flowers are pricey among the most expensive you can purchase (for non-magical means) often gifted to a loved one as a sign of love and adoration. The silk is an extremely expensive commodity with Trapper’s ivy silk, called Vilaasita. This material is collected by a complex process of magic and machinery, separating the delicate silk from the seeds. The silk is sewn into extremely soft and luxurious clothing items for the exorbitantly rich and powerful. The silk is prized for its rarity, softness, shine, exquisite natural colors, and its ability to retain magic and be enchanted.

House Increases Transit Funding in Economic Recovery Bill
The U.S. House of Representatives voted Jan. 28 in favor of the economic recovery bill. This vote was preceded by the adoption of an amendment to increase transit funding from $9 billion to $12 billion, sponsored by Reps. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), Peter DeFazio (D-OR), Dan Lipinski (D-IL), Keith Ellison (D-MN), and Michael McMahon (D-NY). The amendment will appropriate an additional $1.5 billion for transit formula funding and $1.5 billion for the New Starts program. The bill also includes $1.1 billion for high-speed rail and intercity rail projects.
The House also adopted an amendment by Rep. James Oberstar (D-MN), chair of the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, to require 50 percent of economic recovery funding to be obligated within 90 days instead of the 180 days proposed by the House Appropriations Committee. After debate on the amendments was completed, the House approved the full economic recovery bill by a vote of 244-188.
The Senate marked up its version of the bill on Jan. 27, and floor debate is expected to begin the week of Feb. 2.
In President Barack Obama’s first video message, he included public transportation in discussing his administration’s economic stimulus package, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Plan. Calling it a plan “to immediately jump-start job creation as well as long-term economic growth,” Obama said it will save or create three to four million jobs over the next few years and will invest in the country’s “most important priorities,” including energy and education; health care; and a new infrastructure “necessary to keep us strong and competitive in the 21st century.”
Obama continued: “We will rebuild and retrofit America to meet the demands of the 21st century,” which means “repairing and modernizing thousands of miles of America’s roadways and providing new mass transit options for millions of Americans.”
U.S. DOT estimates that every $1 billion of stimulus investment in transportation infrastructure supports 28,000 jobs, so $12 billion in new transit funding would create more than 330,000 new jobs. APTA’s economic recovery survey has identified nearly 800 “ready-to-go” transit projects worth $15.9 billion—marking transit investment that can be spent quickly and immediately create “green” jobs—supporting the president’s plan for economic recovery.
In a statement thanking the Congressional leadership, APTA President William W. Millar said:
“On behalf of the U.S. public transportation industry, I congratulate the members of the House of Representatives on the passage of H.R. 1, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. This important legislation will invest $12 billion in public transportation projects and $1.1 billion in high-speed rail and intercity rail projects that will create and support hundreds of thousands of green American jobs.
"With public transit ridership at modern record levels, it is clear that the American people want expanded public transportation services. The public transportation industry is ready to go to create and support jobs and give better public transit services to millions of Americans. Additionally, this federal investment in public transportation will promote energy independence and reduce our nation’s carbon footprint, two other important national goals.
"I want to thank U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her leadership team, T&I Chair James Oberstar and the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee members, and Appropriations Chair David Obey and the members of the House Appropriations committee, for their work in making sure that public transportation funding was included at a significant amount.
"Additionally, I want to thank U.S. Reps. Jerrold Nadler, Peter DeFazio, Keith Ellison, Michael McMahon, and Daniel Lipinski for their leadership in adding an additional $3 billion in public transportation investment to the bill yesterday. Their extra effort means that more jobs and public transportation service will be available to more Americans.
"We look forward to working with the Senate on this important legislation.”

Popular social networking site Facebook has rolled out a new ‘privacy checkup’ aimed at helping users exert more control over their privacy settings.
The new system uses a blue dinosaur to guide Facebook users through its procedures of privacy settings for personal information and sharing their posts.
The new setting was unveiled from the Facebook Newsroom on Thursday by Paddy Underwood, Facebook product manager, available on their website.
“Today we are starting to roll out Privacy Checkup, which helps you review and control who you’re sharing with,” said Paddy Underwood in a post.
“We know you come to Facebook to connect with friends, not with us. But we also know how important it is to be in control of what you share and who you share with.”
Earlier, Facebook announced this plan in June in its latest response to concerns about privacy.
The dinosaur will pop up when users log on to Facebook, and take them through each step of the privacy settings, from their personal information to the apps that may access Facebook data.

Opp council discusses ordinance changesPublished 12:01am Tuesday, December 18, 2012
Much discussion was on the table at a workshop held prior to the Opp City Council over wording in the proposed building code ordinance.
District 2 councilman TD Morgan was concerned about making homeowners pay a fee to move a prefabricated storage building onto their property.
“Why can’t they bring it on without a permit,” Morgan said.
Mayor John Bartholomew said that the reason for the permit was to ensure that homeowners keep structures such as these building the proper footage away from their homes and that they don’t bring buildings into subdivisions that don’t allow them.
District 5 councilman Arlin Davis said he too didn’t think prefabricated store building should have a permit.
City Planner Jason Bryan said he needed a way to enforce the law when residents have buildings too close to their homes.
Morgan also said he felt that the city was trying to go at too fast of a pace and trying to keep up with larger cities, such as Andalusia, Enterprise and Montgomery.
“I don’t have a problem adopting the International Code Council,” he said.
The new ordinance will change the current code – the Southern Standard Building Code – to the International Code Council.
District 4 councilwoman Mary Brundidge said she felt that Bryan should come to the council with fees that were more closely aligned with cities of Opp’s size.
“You can set whatever prices you want,” Bryan said. “I just tried to look at those that were around us.”
District 3 Councilman Mike Booth said he didn’t feel it was right to exempt those who are purchasing prefab storage buildings and not those who are building theirs.
“I think that’s a lot of money slipping through the cracks in Opp,” he said.
Bartholomew said the longer the council stalls the more money the city is losing.
To compromise, the council agreed to incorporate an exemption in the ordinance that reads, “Manufacturers of accessory structures, storage buildings and the like, are not required to obtain moving permits. This exemption does not remove the burden of obtaining a building/zoning permit from the property owner. Prefabricated structures of 12×24 and smaller are exempt from the building permit fee.”
However, homeowners will be required to come in and “pull a permit.”
Additionally, anyone who fails to comply will be subject to the following penalties:
• First offense – $100 fine plus double the $15 permit cost.
• Second offense -$200 fine plus double the $15 permit cost.
• Third offense – $1,000 fine plus double the $15 permit cost.
The council will vote on the ordinance at the Jan. 7 meeting.

They say that the bulk of the president’s job is dealing with the unexpected. Candidates campaign on platforms and promises which in many cases are not fulfilled nor accomplished. So what candidates say to get elected is one thing, and what they do when they are in office is another. The election of Donald Trump was, to many, unexpected. Politics aside, a question has been lingering in my mind about whether this will be good or bad for business (and by business I mean the Hispanic marketing communications business). There are a couple of areas where I think a Trump presidency will have implications:
Ignoring the sleeping giant: Minus
Many news articles reported that minorities would be the deciding factor in electing our new president. They weren’t. It was almost the opposite: white rural and rust-belt America. The question now is whether brands and clients will shift their mindset from believing that the multicultural consumer is as important as they used to believe it was. Think about it. There have been watershed moments that have had a positive impact in this space: the 2000 census, the 2008 presidential election and the rise of Hispanic super celebrities like Ricky Martin, J.Lo and Sophia Vergara. Will the Trump presidency encourage clients to ignore the sleeping giant, given their underwhelming presence in the election?
The Economy: Plus
After the initial “shock” of Trump’s election, the market rallied. Construction, infrastructure and defense segments rallied, all labor-intensive segments that have large Latino participation. The Trump administration’s focus on encouraging companies to keep jobs in America will augment the positive impact on the blue-collar Latino worker. This may actually mean that Latinos will have more disposable income. Given that they spend versus save, when compared to the general population, this may encourage Hispanic consumptions of goods and services. If the economy stays strong, Latino economic outlook will be positive (more homes and cars).
Immigration: The elephant in the room
There has been a lot of talk about how President Trump’s immigration policies and actions will impact the Hispanic community. Time will tell what actions will be taken, but I can guarantee that Latinos will be tuned into their media outlets more than ever. Should a wall be built, the question is whether a wall will really stop undocumented immigration. Economic forces are stronger than political or legal forces, and a stronger U.S. economy coupled with a weaker Mexican economy will continue to drive immigration. We all have seen the Pew Hispanic charts showing how the rate of undocumented immigration plateaued after the great recession. My bet is that a stronger construction- and labor-based economy will drive a growth in undocumented immigration. After all, we live in a capitalist economy.
There are probably quite a few more themes to think through but the debate is more important: Will a Trump Presidency be better or worse for Hispanic marketing communications?

Why the collusion story begins with money, not politics.
Sean Illing: We know there are deep links between Russian money and Trump, but let’s talk about how the interests intertwine. What did you make of the recent revelations about Trump Jr.’s meeting with the Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya?
Seva Gunitsky: So we have this infamous Russian lawyer who met with Trump Jr. last year and apparently several other people, including a former Soviet counterintelligence officer. I think the tough question critics have been asking is where is the quid pro quo in that? The Magnitsky Act, ostensibly the purpose of the meeting, isn’t going anywhere, so people are concluding that there wasn’t a quid pro quo here. But we should be talking a lot more about the Prevezon case.
Sean Illing: Explain what that is and why it matters.
Seva Gunitsky: So Prevezon is a holding company with links to Russian elites that has been accused of laundering hundreds of millions of dollars through New York City real estate. It's also part of Hermitage Capital, an investment fund that was being investigated by Magnitsky (the Russian lawyer who was killed in a Moscow prison in 2009) more than 10 years ago.
Prevezon was part of this giant tax fraud scheme that Magnitsky uncovered in 2008, which led to his death and which led indirectly to the Magnitsky Act of 2012. The U.S. Attorney’s Office was also preparing a massive case against Prevezon last year. Until it was abruptly dropped.

It’s always a bit of a blow when we lose someone in the industry—especially at such a young age. Found this afternoon in her house in Kent, England, Peaches Geldof passed away today at the age of 25. British socialite, model, writer and television personality, Geldof is survived by her husband, musician Thomas Cohen, and two sons Astala, one, and Phaedra, 11 months. Beginning her career by writing a column for the U.K.’s Elle Girl magazine when she was just 15, Geldof quickly became a lover of media and fashion, writing for both The Daily Telegraph and The Guardian before becoming a model in her teens.
Premiering at London Fashion Week in 2007, she shortly thereafter was named the face of Dotti Australia and also began campaigning with Ultimo. Named number seven in British publication Tatler’s Top Ten Fashion Icons of the Year, she was the youngest person to make the list and has been a fashion regular ever since. A common guest at fashion week, Geldof was seen front row even throughout her two pregnancies.

IRC Rushes Aid To Victims of Goma Volcano; Gates Foundation Provides Emergency Funding
The International Rescue Committee is on the ground in Rwanda and Congo, rushing lifesaving assistance to tens of thousands of people who have fled the eastern Congo city of Goma to escape Thursday's devastating volcanic eruption of Mount Nyiragongo.
With $500,000 in emergency funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation , the IRC is launching a broad relief effort to respond to the most grave and immediate threats to life.
"The Congolese and the Rwandans have been through hell in the last decade," said Reynold Levy, the IRC's president. "We want do everything humanly possible to see them through this latest ordeal."
The IRC's emergency activities will include:
- Water & Sanitation - IRC staff in eastern Congo and in Gisenyi, Rwanda are on the scene to begin trucking critical water supplies to the displaced. Supplies are en route to construct water distribution points and emergency latrines.
- Basic Healthcare - IRC's healthcare staff in the region are relocating to areas where the newly displaced are settling, to treat diarrhea, malaria, respiratory infections, dehydration and other illnesses.
- Shelter - The IRC is procuring plastic sheeting and basic construction materials to provide temporary shelter to needy populations.
- Child Tracing - In the chaos of the rushed evacuation, many children may have been separated from their parents. The IRC is dispatching experienced teams to the area to identify and assist traumatized and separated children and reunify them with their families.
An estimated 500,000 Goma residents scattered across the region. IRC staff members report that many who fled to the Rwandan city of Gisenyi are already returning to Congo.
"The situation for the displaced is really serious," says the IRC's director in Rwanda, Lizanne McBride. "And many of the displaced in Congo are now heading toward areas that have been ravaged by war and where resources are already scarce." But McBride said the IRC's emergency teams have been mobilized and are ready to provide assistance wherever Goma's displaced end up - in Rwanda, the Democratic Republic of Congo or elsewhere in the region.
"This is a huge humanitarian crisis and lives, livelihoods, the environment and regional stability are threatened," said Levy. "But given the IRC's significant presence in the region, we're in a good position to respond to critical needs and the Gates Foundation's rapid and generous donation will strengthen our ability to do so."


January 13, 2012
Russian company Kavikorm, known for developing new types of compound feed and new feeding technologies, has introduced a new feeding system using co-products of the brewing and distilling industries.
Innovativeness of its processing technologies lies in the fact that the brewer's grain and yeast are not divided into fractions, but entirely go for processing, with added minerals and vitamins. These concentrates, as well as concentrates from distillery vinasse, in their composition have all the essential amino acids and can be used in the animal feed industry.
Developed by Kavikorm together with the Russian Institute of Livestock, the share of feed concentrate from the co-products (grains and yeast) in the ration for pigs should be about 30-45% and about 58% in compound feed for cattle.
As a result, the cost of a pig feed unit is estimated at 6 rubles (US$0.20), which is exactly half of the price of the cheapest feed in Russia.
According to experts, this technology of feeding by far is the most economical in the Commonwealth of Independent States.
General Director of Kavikorm, Andrew Antoniuk, speaking at an international conference "Innovative way of development of pig production in Russia," the first feeds will be used in pig farming. They have made agreements with a number of large pig farms, where the new developed feed will be tested on some 300,000 pigs.
Specialists of the company will evaluate the effectiveness of the new feed stuff during the testing period.

Oh my goodness. I sat down to watch a little TV and I watched every episode of Grace and Frankie. I suppose you either love these two or you don't. I think they were fabulous.
What amazed me most was that several times Jane Fonda's character, Grace, alluded to being 70 years old. I mean, how often do you hear that a character on a TV program or in a movie is 70 years old unless they are in bed on their last leg. In real life, yes, we are proud to have survived. But rarely do we see our aging selves portrayed so vibrantly. For that, I thank them.
Of course, there are probably only three people left on the planet that look as good as Jane Fonda does at 77 (she was born in '37), but that's ok. She has spent the time, trouble and money to look that good. I, myself, look more like Lily Tomlin's character, Frankie.

As the population ages, the demand for senior living facilities continues to grow rapidly. Today, it is more critical than ever for operators of these facilities to understand the importance of providing quality care. Not only does it significantly impact the lives of residents, but it also directly affects the financial performance and sustainability of the facility. In essence, investing in quality care can yield a substantial return on investment (ROI) for senior living facilities.
Quality care in senior living facilities encompasses various aspects, including physical health, mental health, nutrition, social engagement, and overall well-being of the residents. A commitment to quality care can result in several tangible and intangible benefits that collectively contribute to an impressive ROI.
Lower Turnover Rates
One of the primary benefits of quality care is lower resident turnover rates. When seniors receive exceptional care, they are more likely to stay longer. High turnover can result in significant losses due to the costs associated with acquiring new residents, including marketing expenses and vacancy costs. Thus, lower turnover rates can lead to considerable cost savings and increased revenue, contributing to a high ROI.
Increased Occupancy Rates
Quality care can also improve occupancy rates. A facility known for its excellent care will attract more prospective residents, helping maintain high occupancy levels. The occupancy rate is a crucial determinant of a facility’s revenue. Hence, increased occupancy rates can significantly enhance the profitability and ROI of a senior living facility.
Reduced Healthcare Costs
By prioritizing preventative measures, regular health check-ups, and immediate response to health issues, quality care can help minimize serious health complications among residents. This can lead to reduced healthcare costs, including emergency room visits and hospital readmissions. Consequently, these savings can substantially increase the ROI.
Improved Reputation and Brand Value
Investing in quality care can enhance a facility’s reputation and brand value. A good reputation will attract more residents and their families, leading to higher occupancy rates and increased revenue. The improved brand value can also provide a competitive edge, making it easier to attract investors and secure funding.
Increased Employee Satisfaction and Retention
Quality care often requires a well-trained, committed workforce. By investing in staff development and creating a positive work environment, facilities can increase employee satisfaction and retention. This can reduce the costs associated with high employee turnover, such as recruitment and training expenses, thereby increasing ROI.
An investment in quality care is an investment in the future of a senior living facility. It can lead to lower turnover rates, increased occupancy rates, reduced healthcare costs, improved reputation, and increased employee satisfaction. In the long run, these benefits can translate into a substantial ROI, making quality care a smart financial strategy for senior living facilities. Therefore, it is crucial for operators to understand the importance of quality care and make it a priority in their operations.

Goldsland Holdings moves in to secure US $22 million from Vermont UM Bunkering
The High Court of the Republic of Singapore has held an ‘Examination of Judgement’ session between creditor Goldsland Holdings Company Limited [Plaintiff] and Vermont UM Bunkering Pte Ltd [Defendant] over a US $22.44 million claim, learns Manifold Times.
The recent ‘Examination of Judgement’ session in the week ended 13 January, held to determine what assets are available to satisfy to pay off a debt, is a follow up from an earlier judgement by the court on 23 March, 2018.
“No appearance having been entered by the Defendant herein, it is this day adjudged that the Defendants do pay the Plaintiff: USD22,443,995.61 and costs fixed at the sum of S$2,300,” said the earlier judgement.
Goldsland Holdings, the Hong Kong based creditor, is engaged in the businesses of bunker supply, biodiesel, overseas mining, bulk trade and property leasing, according to the legal documents.
“From time to time between the periods from 2010 to 2016, the Defendant would request the Plaintiff to provide financial assistance in respect of the Defendant’s bunkering transactions with its suppliers,” it stated.
“The Defendant would request the Plaintiff to make payment directly to the Defendant’s bunkering suppliers, for bunkers which were supplied to the Defendant.
“Pursuant to the Defendant’s requests, the Plaintiff would transfer the monies directly to the Defendant’s suppliers and make payment for and on behalf of the Defendant.
“As at 17 July 2017, the total loan amounts that were owed by the Defendant to the Plaintiff was in the sum of USD 22,443,995.61.”
Vermont UM Bunkering had its bunker supplier and bunker craft operator licence revoked by the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) on 28 April, 2016.
On 16 November 2017, Vermont UM Bunkering’s two directors and one former bunker manager were charged in court with 150 counts of engaging in a conspiracy to cheat customers.
The group dishonestly induced clients to make excess payments totalling over $8 million.
Vermont UM Bunkering (UEN: 200920025G) is still registered as a ‘live company’ according to the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) during a Wednesday (16 January) check by Manifold Times.
In April 2018, Malayan Banking Berhad was seeking to liquidate a total US $38.3 million under Mortgagee’s Claim from Vermont UM Bunkering affiliated firm Vermont UM Shipping.

The best iOS 16 feature won’t appear on the iPad
At the WWDC 2022 event for developers held on June 6, Apple introduced a new version of iOS 16 operating system with many notable changes, in which features are important to many users. Most importantly, the ability to customize the lock screen interface (Lock screen). Users can now change the font and color of the clock, add widgets and animate the lock screen wallpaper…
However, for those who are using iPad and intend to upgrade to iPadOS 16, the sad news is that no lock screen customization feature will be brought to iPad by Apple.
Although iOS and iPadOS have many similarities in terms of interface and features, it is not clear why Apple “discriminates” iPadOS when many iOS features are not brought to iPadOS. Currently beta 1 of iPadOS 16 does not allow users to personalize the lock screen. All users have is a clock interface with a bolder font, and a new lock screen wallpaper.
However, with iPadOS 16, Apple has changed the way users multitask with Stage Manager mode, along with the ability to support separate screens more completely. Information about iPadOS 16 readers can refer to details at this paragraph.
It is not clear in the future whether Apple will “turn the wheel” and bring the new features of iOS 16 to iPadOS 16. We will need to wait until September when these operating system versions are officially released along with the new generation of iPhone 14.

PALO ALTO, Calif (PRWEB) April 17, 2019
People Power, the the Internet of Things (IoT) software company providing custom branded services for senior care, security and energy management, announces today the start of a phase two project funded through a research and development grant expected to total $3.9 million from the National Institute on Aging (NIA), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The first phase of the grant focused on researching caregiver needs and developing in-home supportive solutions for dementia caregivers. The results of the collaborative research with University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) have produced key insights into how connected services can best offer assistance and promote peace of mind for caregivers actively involved in providing care for persons with dementia. In phase two, People Power and the Berkeley Psychophysiology Laboratory will deploy to 480 homes over two years.
Key findings from focus group testing of caregivers revealed how a connected solution can best assist in the mission to provide better care for their loved ones with dementia while combatting their own feelings of isolation, stress and loneliness. Knowledge gained through research was applied to the care solution that combines intelligent cloud services, mobile apps and low-cost sensors to create a smart home product that includes important care assistance and social outreach features. Two research studies are planned for phase two, one evaluating deployments in 80 homes and the other involving a broader deployment in 400 caregiving settings. In each study, participants are evenly split between active and control group conditions to accurately measure product impact.
“It is a great pleasure and an exciting opportunity to work with the talented and dedicated team at People Power on this project,” said Dr. Robert W. Levenson, Professor of Psychology at UC Berkeley. “Our collaborative effort to design and evaluate assistive technology has great promise in helping caregivers provide high quality care for individuals with dementia. As the population ages worldwide and the number of families dealing with dementia caregiving increases, there is a growing need for innovative solutions that promote the health and well-being of people with dementia and their caregivers.”
Noteworthy features that deliver critical insights and alerts for care providers include AI-powered fall detection, wandering notification, and activity and sleep monitoring. Each service is fueled by People Power’s patent pending machine learning algorithms that evolve constantly by learning patterns of behavior in order to warn caregivers about incidents of concern and pending hazards.
“Injuries from falls remain a frequent cause of death among people 65 years of age and older,” said Gene Wang, CEO of People Power. “Our research targets this concern with industry-leading AI-powered fall detection for crucial improvements in response to life threatening falls when compared to wearable devices or antiquated PERS buttons. The solution also incorporates easy-to-use social features designed to help reduce loneliness and depression of caregivers and seniors by encouraging trusted circles of friends and family to share special moments captured in photos and videos.”

Labour leader David Shearer says he "makes no apologies" for his party's proposal to exclude all offshore buyers from the New Zealand housing market after claims it was unnecessary and anti-Chinese.
Prime Minister John Key said foreign ownership was not a big problem and fears about it were based on assumption, not facts.
If elected, Labour would block all purchases of existing property by people who did not live here, or did not plan to live here. Exemptions would be given to Australians, because of reciprocal arrangements with New Zealand, and foreigners who planned to build houses and increase the national supply.
Mr Shearer said first-time buyers were struggling to get on the housing ladder, and this was partly because 2600 homes were sold to foreign speculators who had no intention of living in New Zealand. This figure was based on a voluntary survey of 549 real estate agents by BNZ-Real Estate Institute of New Zealand which found that 9 per cent of sales went to offshore buyers.
Mr Shearer said overseas real estate websites were championing the fact that New Zealand had no capital gains tax, stamp duty or other restrictions.
"We are effectively open for business," he said.
Greens and New Zealand First strongly backed the policy.
New Zealand First leader Winston Peters said: "When I see Barfoot and Thompson's top 25 agents and 19 are Asian and they're not selling to the New Zealand population, they're selling to foreign buyers, then we've got something seriously wrong."
Mr Key, on the other hand, argued that the number of non-residents who were buying up property was "very small".
"The number of people in mainland China who happen to be buying a $500,000 or $600,000 house in Pakuranga you could probably count on your right hand."
Asked whether he felt it was a xenophobic policy, Mr Key said: "Some people see certain bias from certain ethnicities at auctions, for instance, and assume they are foreigners. That's a very heroic assumption on their front, it almost certainly won't be correct."
Act Party leader John Banks went further, saying it was anti-investment, anti-immigrant and anti-Chinese.
Mr Shearer said similar restrictions had already been introduced in the UK, China, Hong Kong and Singapore.
"I make no apologies for getting in behind New Zealand buyers. If we don't we're the odd country out."
Real estate experts had some reservations about the policy.
Property commentator Olly Newland said it was "a bit of a nonsense" because Australians bought more properties than other foreigners, and because offshore buyers could get residents to buy houses in their name and hold it in a trust for them.
Real Estate Institute of New Zealand head Helen O'Sullivan said she was interested to know how the policy would be enforced. "Would you be needing to ask for passports at open homes?"
Mr Shearer believed the policy would be "self-policing".
He said that lawyers conducting a property transaction would have to prove that the buyer was a New Zealand resident.
*Non-residents banned from buying existing NZ houses.
*Exemptions for Australians or foreigners who plan to live in NZ permanently.
*Non-residents will be able to buy vacant land if they plan to build on it within 12
*Students or skilled migrants who have been in NZ for more than 12 months can
buy homes, but must sell if they leave.
*Non-residents found to have bought a house will be forced to sell and could be
*Part of housing policy which includes capital gains tax on investment
properties and building 100,000 new homes in 10 years.

A survey conducted by the Pew Research Center has shown that half or more of the public in most NATO countries consider Russia a major military threat to its neighbors.
Concern is highest in Poland where 70 percent of those polled said that Moscow is a major threat in Eastern Europe. Considering the level of concern across NATO states, it comes as little surprise that general views of Russia among the public have also plummeted.
The survey comprehensively charts the increasing animosity between Russia and the West. Pluralities in most NATO countries blame Russia for the violence in Ukraine while anti-Western views and support for Putin are surging across Russia. National pride is also at an all time high – 63 percent of Russians polled said they have a very favorable view of their own country. Furthermore, only 12 percent of the Russian public rated NATO positively. Half of people considered the alliance a threat to their country.
This chart shows the percentage of public in NATO member states considering Russia a military threat to its neighbors.

There has been a lot of talk that rivers should be dredged and ditches cleared to improve the flow of water through them, but what about controlling the water at its source, where the rivers and streams start.
The moors have been seriously deteriorating over the decades. Thousands of acres of moorland was drained with grips and ditches in the early 70’s in-line with the Agricultural policy of the time, to encourage and increase grazing of sheep. To get an idea of scale, there is 70,000ha of upland peat soil in the Yorkshire region alone, with approximately 4,350,000m of grips and ditch channels. Air pollution from the industrial revolution also killed off sensitive Sphagnum moss which holds large quantities of water. Wildfires over the years, have swept across moorland wiping out habitats that keep the peat stable from erosion.
DTMS Group have been recently working with Moors for the Future, who look after the Peak District and South Pennines. We have been carrying out grip blocking and the spreading of heather brash in a scheme to restore the peat bogs at Dean Head Moss moor.
Using timber dams, to block the eroded grips, prevents the peat drying out by raising the water table. According to research, up to 25% more water could be held in the moors, which could alleviate flooding and drought as the water held there is only slowly released. It also improves water quality downstream by reducing the amount of peat sediment entering the water supply which contains heavy metals and organic phosphorous. Not to mention the improvement to the landscape, wildlife and habitat.
After the timber dams are completed, the bare peat needs to be stabilised as it can erode at a rate of 2.5cm per year. To do this lime and fertiliser is applied with a grass seed and heather brash. The grass seed germinates quickly to stabilise the peat but only survives long enough for the heather in the brash to establish.

The ship providing abortion service onboard is blocked from docking in Spain
Aurora, a ship sailing under the Dutch flag, is performing abortions in international waters near the coasts of countries, in which anti-abortion sentiments are strong. The group called Women on Waves has launched a campaign to give women an option to have an abortion even if they do not have one on their country’s mainland. Today Aurora was supposed to drop its anchors near Valencia, Spain, but was blocked from docking by a flotilla of small ships carrying Spanish anti-abortion activists. Spain’s abortion rules are very strict compared to the rest of the Europe, where abortion law is a lot more liberal.
On their website, Women on Waves describe the medications required to provoke an abortion, provide updates on EU regulations on abortion, solicit for donations and list abortion clinics worldwide. The site also comments on the group's Spanish campaign and claims the ship would dock in Valencia “at the invitation of 33 Spanish organizations” concerned with a better abortion law.
The terminations will be carried out using medication rather surgery outside Spanish waters under the Netherlands’ more liberal abortion laws.
Josep Luis Carbonell, a Spanish gynaecologist who is to carry out some of the terminations, said that the arrival of the boat would allow “abortions outside Spanish law for the first time in Spain’s recent history but without violating it”.
The group’s supporters include the actress Pilar Bardem, mother of the Oscar-winning actor Javier Bardem.
Rita Barbera, the Mayor of Valencia, who is a member of the opposition Popular Party, has branded the move as “intolerable filling us with indignation”.
The Spanish Association of Catholic Doctors (FAMC) and another campaign group, Listen, called on the city council to ban the ship from docking. Jose Maria Simon, FAMC president, said: “This campaign is financed by the abortion industry. They carry out between 100,000 and 200,000 abortions each year.”
Spain decriminalised abortion in 1985 allowing terminations up to 12 weeks in the case of rape. Abortions can be permitted up to 22 weeks in cases of severe foetal malformation. There is no time limit on abortions if there is a risk to the mother’s physical or mental health.
Some private clinics have been accused of carrying out illegal abortions during the late stages of pregnancy.

When I first heard the word essay, I was in Middle school around 15 years old. I didn’t know what it involved but all I heard was, you need to write alootttt. It sounded overwhelming at first but thankfully, writing and speaking was an interest of mine and I was ready to build upon it. First off, I want to let you in on what essay writing is.
So let me break it down. Essays are used to develop and expand ideas or arguments that accompany supporting evidence. It’s a formal piece of writing that contains points of contention and also expound on evidence that is carefully selected in order to compliment your overall idea and thoughts.
At high school level, students are given a question which they must develop and answer for in essay form. One of my favourite forms of essay writing is critical analysis. The main purpose here is to demonstrate an understanding of the ideas expressed in a text or topic. The key features of this type of essay writing are that several paragraphs may need to be written about one or more aspects of the text.
This all sounds quite monotonous but I promise you, once you understand structure of essay writing, you will feel so much more confident and be able to write anything. I first started teaching essay writing when I was still in school. I used to help my friends out with their essay formation and also my younger sister who was 2 years younger who loved learning my tips and tricks when it came to writing and formulating essays.
I just want to assure you that essay writing is a skill that requires a bit of time and all you need is someone to simplify it for you and break it down in the simplest way possible. It’s all about having fun and one way I like to have fun is by choosing worldly issues to help bring understanding to the overall structure and process. It’s hard enough to learn a new topic plus learn a new structure in writing so choosing a topic that you are already familiar with might just be what is needed to alleviate some of the stresses around learning essay writing.
Some of my academic essays I have written in the past are honestly love letters. When I read over work I wrote, I get teary because it brings back memories of the time when I wrote them and how I constructed those pieces. If you would like to read some of my work that received a High Distinction grade at a Masters level then read here to download.
I wrote this piece when I was 24 years old (almost 8 years ago). This piece is on the Palestinian and Israeli Conflict as I undertook my specialisation in Human Rights and International Law during my Masters degree at Deakin University. Since then, I have worked incredibly hard in building upon my writing skills and am incredibly grateful to have this talent and desire to help and teach others.
Essay writing has enabled me to learn how to free-flow write and express myself in ways that allows me to step in and out of structured writing. Through my blog posts, this too is another writing platform that allows me to freely express my heart to you.
I hope you too start to learn to love essay writing just as much as I do. Watch your life unfold as you learn a new way of communicating with the world.
Start writing sister friend.

Mushroom Risotto is a flavorful dish that can be prepared with just a few pantry essentials. We like this version with dried mushrooms, like porcini, especially when using the soaking liquid as a substitute for some of the broth required.
Two .35 ounce packages dried porcini mushrooms
About 5 cups veal or beef stock (preferably homemade)
8 sprigs of fresh thyme plus additional for garnish
4 sprigs of fresh sage plus additional for garnish
2 bay leaves
1/4 cup olive oil
3 large leeks (white and pale green part only), quartered lengthwise, sliced thin, and washed thoroughly (about 2 cups)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 pound thinly sliced cremini or portobello mushrooms (about 3 cups)
2 anchovies, drained and mashed to a paste
1 1/4 cups superfino rice
1/2 cup dry red wine
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
salt and pepper to taste
1. Soak the dried porcini in a bowl with 1 cup hot water for 30 minutes. Remove the mushrooms with a slotted spoon, chop them finely, and set them aside in a small bowl. Strain the soaking liquid through a coffee filter to remove any grit. (you should have a generous 1/3 cup liquid.)
2. Bring the stock to a full boil with the thyme, sage, bay leaves, and mushroom soaking liquid in a medium saucepan, reduce the heat, and keep it at a bare simmer.
3. Heat the olive oil in a heavy 2- to 3-quart saucepan, and cook the leeks and garlic over
moderate heat, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon, until very soft but not browned, about
6 minutes. Add the fresh mushrooms and the anchovies, and cook, stirring constantly, for
5 minutes, or until the mushrooms are softened (reduce the heat slightly if the mushrooms begin to stick). Stir in the rice, and cook, stirring
constantly, for 2 minutes. Add the wine, and cook, stirring constantly, until wine is absorbed, about 1 minute. Stir in the chopped dried mushrooms.
4. Remove the herb sprigs from the stock with a slotted spoon or tongs. Add about 1/2 cup simmering stock to the rice, and cook, stirring constantly, until all the stock is absorbed. Continue adding stock, about 1/2 cup at a time, and cook, stirring constantly and letting each addition be absorbed before adding the next, until rice is al dente, 20 to 25 minutes; season with salt and pepper about halfway through the cooking.
5. Remove the pan from heat and stir in the butter, Parmigiano-Reggiano, and salt and pepper to taste. Garnish risotto with the additional thyme and sage sprigs, and serve immediately.
This Mushroom Risotto recipe is mushroom-y in flavor, but not overbearingly so, with a lovely buttery under taste. This is a stick-to-the-ribs, dark-brown risotto that pairs well with everything from grilled meats to Thanksgiving Turkey, and is equally delightful as a main course. Serves six as a first course.

Oahu restaurant owners understand the reasons behind a two-week dining-room shutdown that begins Thursday, but they are still frustrated and fearing the worst.
“We’re struggling to stay afloat and provide jobs,” said Victor Lim, one of the chairpersons of the Hawaii Restaurant Association and owner of five McDonald’s restaurants in Hawaii. “It’s ugly. Actually, that’s an understatement.”
A city announcement Tuesday restricted restaurants once again to takeout operations. The last shutdown, at the beginning of the pandemic, ran from mid-March until early June.
While health and safety must come first, Lim said, “the sustainability of businesses in the state are at a critical juncture. Summertime is usually a time to build cash flow, but this year there is no such reserve for businesses to sustain themselves.”
Two weeks may not seem like a long time, said Lane Muraoka, founder and owner of Big City Diner. “But anyone who owns a small business knows that is a long time because your cash flow decreases but the bills don’t. The invoices keep coming in. Overhead will be a big challenge.”
Forty Hawaii restaurants — 20 on Oahu — have permanently closed since the pandemic began, according to a list compiled by Food-A-Go-Go, a restaurant support group that falls under the Hawaii Agricultural Foundation.
Denise Yamaguchi, executive director of the foundation, said her fear is that more won’t survive this second shutdown, as many were just getting back on their feet. “I can’t even guess where we’ll be after two weeks.”
The one consolation, Yamaguchi said, is the government’s plan to increase contact tracing and testing. “If we make this two-week sacrifice, it’s hopeful that our leaders will have enough information so we don’t have to go backward again.”
Lim said the city, state and Department of Health must work alongside the business community. “We need leadership to ensure this is handled correctly. We take one step to the left, two steps to the right. We need to have the coordinated effort on everyone’s part to march forward.”
Muraoka said he’s already cut his staff in half to 250 employees, many of whom will now be placed “on hiatus.”
“Your servers, there’s no work for them now,” he said. “Some office staff, hourly workers, dishwashers … As a business owner my objective is always to keep everyone working. But the sad reality is we already have less than half the business as it is.”
He also lamented the trickle-down effect, as vendors suffer when restaurants cancel orders. “Their drivers, their stockers. It snowballs downhill fast when we order even less meat, less tomatoes, even when we order less supplies like paper towels. People end up losing jobs.”
Jeremy Shigekane, chef/owner of M by Chef Mavro, had just reopened for outdoor dining and was hoping to serve diners inside in a few weeks.
The restrictions placed on restaurants are “like a good jolt, every time,” Shigekane said. “Just when we get used to something, it’s like a good kick in the face. It keeps me on my toes.”
He spoke to his staff of six about “the what-ifs.” “I asked, ‘Is it worth our time to stay open?’ We decided to do something so we can say that at least we tried.”
DK Kodama, owner of the DK Restaurant Group, said he is better prepared for this shutdown because he’s had time to build a takeout business, which now contributes about half his revenue.
Kodama consolidated his three Oahu restaurants — Vino Italian Tapas & Wine Bar, Sansei Seafood Restaurant & Sushi Bar and d.k Steak House — to offer dine-in and takeout from the Vino location in Kakaako. But takeout can’t replace sit-down dining in the long run, he said.
Although this second shutdown was expected, he had still hoped it could be avoided. “But better safe than sorry. You’re talking health and family versus business and making money. What comes first? Health and family, of course.”

Join a Fun Paint & Sip Event From Your Park Ridge, IL Home
If you're in need of a little social time, you're looking for a creative outlet, or you simply need something to look forward to this weekend without leaving your Park Ridge home, then a Twist at Home paint and sip event is what you need! Purchase your at-home paint kit or join a virtual event from your local Park Ridge studio.
What's the Deal with Park Ridge Twist at Home Kits?
A Twist at Home Paint Kit is your ticket to a fun paint and sip party from Painting with a Twist without even leaving your Park Ridge home! Browse the options for your At-Home Paint Kit at our Park Ridge studio, and find your favorite one! Buy your selection, and then pick up your At-Home Paint Kit at your local studio in Park Ridge.
Can I Throw a Virtual Paint & Sip Party in Park Ridge?
Absolutely! If you’d like to participate in a virtual paint and sip party at Painting with a Twist in Park Ridge, just visit our upcoming events section of our site, and pick an event marked as "Virtual." Once the day of your virtual paint and sip party arrives, you'll receive a meeting invite to join a professional in-studio painting instructor and other aspiring at-home Twisters in a one-of-a-kind virtual painting experience.
What Do I Need to Bring to a Virtual Park Ridge Painting Event?
When you register for your virtual Twist at Home painting event, you'll get a canvas (or the painting surface you chose for your event), all the paint you'll need (the colors will depend on your painting), and different sized brushes. You'll need a surface to mix paint on — a paper plate should do just fine — and a cup with water to clean the paint from your brushes. It's also advised that you wear old clothes or an apron just in case. And that's all! You're officially ready for your virtual paint and sip event at home.
Getting Your Park Ridge Home Ready for a Twist at Home Event
It's unnecessary painting skills, your own easel, or even an art studio in your house to have a good time during a Twist at Home painting event. All you have to have is an optimistic attitude and the painting kit you'll receive from Painting with a Twist — and perhaps a little bit of room in your house in Park Ridge to set up. Find a space big enough for all of the painting supplies that came in your at-home paint kit — a coffee or kitchen table should have plenty of room. You may want to cover it with paper or other protective covering!
You may also want to put on some clothes you won't mind getting a little paint on. The paint can stain, so it's better to plan ahead than cover your favorite pants in paint splatters! Next, set up the device you'll be using to join the virtual paint and sip party — a laptop or tablet should do just fine. Ensure you can see your device's screen while still being able to reach the canvas and painting supplies. Once you're all ready to go, join the event through the meeting invite once the online event begins, and get ready to make some fun art at home!
Your Ideal At-Home Virtual Paint & Sip Party is a Click Away
Joining a virtual Twist at Home paint and sip party is easy! Look at your local Park Ridge studio's events page, and filter the event calendar by Virtual Live Event.

——–A Kabompo magistrate’s court has fined a 36-year-old man KR 500 for trafficking in cannabis.
Magistrate Exad Simumbwe on Friday fined Kahwata Lambi for trafficking in 7.5 kg of cannabis contrary to Section 6 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act Cap 96 of the Laws of Zambia.
Facts before the court were that Lambi was found by the Drug Enforcement Commission (DEC) officers with 7.5 kg of cannabis hidden in his house at Litoya purporting to be for medicinal purposes.
Magistrate Simumbwe said since Lambi did not waste the court’s time by pleading guilty and he is a first offender, he was, therefore, fining him KR 500 or be sent to jail for nine months in default.
Meanwhile, Magistrate Simumbwe has jailed Charles Chinyama Ndala for five years for stealing nine heads of cattle valued at KR20,500 from White Samulola of Kamavonge area in Kabompo district.
He also fined John Kapanga, 45, and his 39-year-old wife, Aggy Kayombo, KR 135 each or in default sent to jail for nine months for naming another person a witch.

I sometimes think that Vincente Minnelli should have put a pistol to his temple after finishing Two Weeks in Another Town. That was effectively the end of his career. Everything afterward is evidence of a director clinging to an idiom that was drifting further and further into irrelevance. Minnelli's slow eclipse during the 1960s is one of the more ignominious declines for a legitimately great director.
Today's subject is the gender bending comedy, Goodbye Charlie, a film obviously using Some Like It Hot as a touchstone--hence, the presence of Tony Curtis. Unfortunately, it doesn't really send up gender roles the way Some Like It Hot does so much as it suggests that biology is destiny, as a womanizing cad comes back from the dead as Debbie Reynolds, starts to soften almost immediately, and repents his womanizing ways. Whatever.
There are all sorts of problems with this premise: ignoring the obvious feminist and queer complaints, the main problem is that it fixes its battle of the sexes theme in time. Oddly enough, it seems like it fixes the state of the conflict a few years prior to its making, 1958 rather than 1964. It was out of touch when it was released and never mind the day before yesterday. From a feminist point of view, it works a little as a revenge fantasy before it goes all weak in the knees. From a trans-queer point of view, the way it postulates a fungible kind of sexuality based on the kind of body one is issued is risible. This film can't stand the idea that Debbie Reynolds might remain attracted to women as a woman, no matter the premise. It also has an undercurrent of autogynephilia, which shades the film into the province of transgender slash porn. Feh.
The film retains the artifice of studio-era Hollywood even as that system was crashing around its head, which, combined with the film's horribly dated social milieu makes this seem like a relic. Minnelli, it seems, stubbornly refused to change with the times. This can be seen in the performances, too. Debbie Reynolds is fine in a difficult role, doing a broad lampoon of male mannerisms, then morphing into a kind of mantrap (not the kind of role one thinks of with Reynolds). It's better than the movie deserves. Curtis, on the other hand, is visibly uncomfortable with the material (odd, considering his resume), and Walter Matthau is abominable as Charlie's murderer, affecting a lame accent and bad age make-up. Pat Boone is, well, Pat Boone.
This is arguably the director's worst movie, but it has some competition from the movies he made afterward. There are directors who have late-career flowerings and remain relevant until the day they die, but Minnelli, closely associated with the Hollywood dream factory and a slave to that style until the end, was not one of them. Oddly enough, Goodbye Charlie has been remade on a couple of occasions, once for television, once by Blake Edwards as Switch, to indifferent results.


Nelson and Colne College Group invests in electric vehicle facilities
Nelson and Colne College Group has invested £250,000 in new facilities which will train engineers and technicians able to work on the latest electric vehicle technologies.
The new facilities will cover the servicing and maintenance of EVs, battery fault diagnosis and repair, electric motor technologies and the installation of charging equipment.
Funding has been provided from a government Skills Development Fund designed to support the move to greener technologies. Led by Blackburn College, the project will create five electric and hybrid vehicle skills centres across Lancashire at Blackburn College, Nelson and Colne College Group, Blackpool and the Fylde College, Lancaster and Morecambe College and Myerscough College.
Dr Steve Wright, EV project leader, said: "The rollout of electric vehicles is crucial to meeting our country’s climate obligations and it’s vital that the technicians working with these new vehicles and their charging systems are up to date and ready for the challenges of the next era of motoring.
"We’ll be using the new equipment to make sure that all of our motor vehicle students have experience of working with EVs. Some of the new resources are very specialist and beyond the reach of smaller businesses. We’ll be making them available to local employers to upskill their staff if they wish to."
Work has already begun on the purchase of equipment and is expected to be rolled out in the coming months.

It’s also known as Legg-Calve-Perthes disease and it’s a part of avascular necrosis. Typically occurs in children who are between 3 and 14 years old and it’s more common in boys than in girls. The necrosis involves usually only one side. The main reason of the disease is the fact that the blood supply to the growth plate of the bone at the end of the femur becomes inadequate and as a result the bone softens and breaks down. Sometimes, we can also hormone reasons observe.
Child with Perthes Disease feels the limited range of motion and pain in the hip and knee area. The muscles of buttock and thigh become weak and the infected leg can be shortened.
Perthes Disease can even last for 3-4 years and the results can be very serious: shortened leg with deformations, limited range of motion, abnormal gait and chronic hip joint inflammation.
The treatment should base on hip off-loading to avoid the flattening of the femoral head.
To this end, we highly recommend our hip brace created for children. The brace reduces the risk of femoral head stressed deformations what improves its healing process.
This 3D fabric provides high air permeability and minimal water and moisture absorption. The shifting air allows the skin breath and make it dry. The external part of our AirDistance II is self-gripping layer where the splint are attached.
The hip belt is equipped with orthopedic stays providing better stabilization. In both straps you can find non-elastic circumferential straps with Velcro fastenings.
Our brace stabilizes and off-loads the hip joint of your child and prevents against the further injuries. Using of high quality splint with innovative drop-lock 1R orthodesign provides required hip position and support in walking.
The pediatric hip brace stabilizes and protect the femoral head against the stress and flattening. The drop-lock with ROM adjustment in every 15 degrees counters the muscle contractures and hip deformations.
Perthes Disease (avascular necrosis)
- Hip deformations
- Hip dislocation
- Femoral fractures
- Acetabular labrum injury

We had hardwood floors installed in our home recently. At first, the floors looked great but now there are gaps between the wood planks. What can I do to fix this problem? The flooring contractor says he did nothing wrong with the installation, and refuses to come and check on the problem.
I need to know which is the better flooring for my money. There is a new vinyl flooring that looks like wood called "Allure". I have children and pets and would like the look of wood flooring in my home. But I've also heard good things about Pergo flooring. Any insight into these two brands?
I've used FSC-certified hardwoods on my new Florida kitchen cabinets and doors. Our kitchen remodeling goal was to stay on the sustainable side of everything where possible. Now I hear that it's hard to find low-VOC finishes and that they're tricky to apply. Even water-based finishes can have high VOCs. Are they, and low-VOC adhesives, expensive?
I refinished a hardwood floor for an elderly lady and she wanted it shiny and slick so it has oil base polyurethane on it. Now she says she doesn't want it that slick, it is too slippery for her at her age. What are your suggestions that I do? What can I do or put on it to make it not so slick?
I have wood floors, and two large dogs with a doggy door in my new house. Throughout the rest of winter we are getting some patio work done and it has been occasionally snowing/raining. What are the best ways to protect your wood from the sand brought in as well as the excess water tracked in?
I want to change the present flooring in my kitchen I am interested in hardwood! Which is the most durable: Bamboo, Cork or hardwood? I have two dogs and 4 cats that play a lot in the area.
I have a home that was built in the 40's. The floors need refinishing since the previous owner moved a door opening and closet, left the previously unfinished floor area unfinished and put in with carpeting. I have since removed the 40 year old carpet. The problem, or at least I think it's a problem, there are gaps between the boards. Some 1/8th inch wide for a distance of several feet. Gradually closing to knife edge. The tongue is never fully exposed and the floor is solid. Is this just natural shrinkage and nothing to be concerned about? And all I have to do is the usual sand and refinish or do I have a real problem?
The family entrance to my home in Racine, Wisconsin, is directly into the kitchen. Snow and sand tracked in during the winter has ruined the vinyl kitchen flooring. What type of flooring would you recommend to minimize this problem? Would ceramic tile hold up better than wood or vinyl?
I like ceramic tiles just fine, but my wife wants to consider hardwood flooring in the kitchen. There's no doubt that we'll be replacing our kitchen flooring, but don't hardwood floors leak and warp if they're used in the kitchen with all the spills?

Sunday - My Series - Katherine Miller Mysteries #MFRWauthor
The second book in the Katherine Miller series of cozy mysteries is Requiem Murder. The story was inspired by the church I attended and the choir loft where the organ bench was even with the railing at the edge. A bit of my old fear of heights came to play here as well. There was a wooden guard rail that extended the height of the railing but the organist removed this because it confined him. Suddenly I had the murder site and then it was on to find who was killed and why.
The first story in this series was more a when story. When was someone going to kill Rachel? This story became who was going to be killed? And who was going to be accused? Once again, exploring the dynamics of the people involved. Some of the old characters returned. Katherine's family, a neighbor who had grown up to become a police officer and of course Robespierre.
This story has a most unique murder weapon. Not going to tell you since the book must be read to learn. But Katherine has a frightening moment or two in the book.

Let me know how this is! It looks like a cheap trials clone, but if it's good fun I'll grab it.
Funny enough, this game is actually a classic that predates Trials by a few years! I never played it back in the day but im liking it, albeit feels different than Trials

I'll have a video for it up shortly actually, it's uploading now
Awesome, glad to hear it. I've never heard of the game before, but I'll likely buy it then.

Sustainable Livelihoods Approaches in Urban Areas
John Farrington , Tamsin Ramasut
Reducing poverty in urban areas is likely to be a growing task for governments and development agencies in the coming decades. As rural urban migration continues, the majority of population is to be found in urban areas in an increasing number of countries, and in most contexts, urban areas provide much greater opportunity and fewer social restrictions on the livelihood possibilities open to the poor. But these opportunities will be realised only if urban development is tailored to the livelihood aspirations of the poor.
