Nick Stahl. Haven’t seen him in awhile...
So is this show even good? I watched the first couple episodes of season one and it was bland as hell. I've been off TWD train for years, and I'm never gonna watch this show (please don't tell me how I should give it a chance, you're wasting time), but I've heard positive things about it. Not relative to TWD though, actually good on its own merits.
Even though I watched TWD for six seasons, it's really amazing how it never got close to season one when Darabont left. He really was the thing that made that show what it was.
New episode is out on AMC+ today. My god... I'm shocked. The showrunners aren't messing around this season.
Season 3 was excellent, great gritty horror story telling. I hate seasons 4 and 5 with a ****in PASSION. They rebounded with season 6, but I still prefer the first 3 seasons.
Oh, I see somebody has money to burn lol
Just this one episode was better than the entire "mini season" of TWD. (Even though I loved the recent Negan episode)
FTWD is the superior show now, but I think it already has been that for a while.
I watched the new episode early. I knew director Michael Satrazemis could get dark (he directed "The Grove"), but I didn't think these showrunners had it in them. Goddamn... Karen David and Lennie James were amazing. This season is great.
Loved the finale. Season 6 is definitely my favorite season.
That shot of Dakota being nuked was wild.
Kind of curious what form the first half of the next season takes. A race against time to get into the bunker Alicia’s in before the fallout begins? CRM swooping in to whisk more of them away to relative safety?
Season 6 was good. The liked the finale, except from the opening tire scene which I hated.
My favorite season is 3.
I'm curious how season 7 will play out and how the characters will converge
Fear TWD Is Finally Bringing Back Sydney Lemmon for Isabelle/Al Arc — Plus, June's Sick Season 7 Discovery
Back on October 17th.
Colman Domingo said in a recent interview that he's a producer for Season 7 and will direct more episodes.
can someone please help me!
My partner has walking dead survivors on his phone and I came across a "clan" member unlike other names this simply just said "my love" all the others had numbers and random words as names. I'm not a gamer myself and have no knowledge at all. When I confronted him he was very angry and said you cannot personalise or change clan members names on the game? I am not sure if this is the case but fi d his reaction and the name itself as very odd for games as names that basic would surely be taken as soon as the game was released?! One person told me you can personalise it your side on the game and another person told me you cannot change players names. Please could someone who knows way more than me kindly tell me. (For the record he has been unfaithful with a certain person this way in the past) I found the name suspicious for online gaming. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
I think you already know what to do...
Ok this was a pretty good episode of FTWD.
I’m looking forward to Strand’s inevitable downfall more and more with each passing week.
Even though I don't watch Fear, I've heard nothing but bad things from the fandom in regards to killing off Madison in the way that the show did. So it's nice that her character will return.

CHICAGO (NewsNation Now) — Students in Illinois will soon be able to take up to five mental health days off school.
A new bill signed by Gov. J.B. Pritzker last month will allow for five excused absences from school without the need for a doctor’s note beginning in January, according to NPR.
Strains of the coronavirus pandemic that have been placed on children throughout the country is a major reason for the bill being signed.
“Many students feel stressed and have developed anxiety and depression because they’re not able to see teachers and friends, and may have lower grades due to remote learning,” said State Representative Barbara Hernandez.
The hope for this bill is for children to get the help they need. At the beginning of the pandemic, mental health emergencies skyrocketed from months March through May.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, mental health emergencies increased 24% for kids aged 5 to 11 years old and 31% for kids 12 to 17.
Hernandez, who’s also a co-sponsor for the bill, believes these five mental health days could potentially be the answer to kids struggling with mental health.
“I am really excited for this. I think it will help students, parents and teachers, and can help them understand what’s going on in their students’ lives,” Hernandez stated.
A school counselor will reach out to the student’s family once a second mental health day is requested, and the student may be referred to get professional help, according to the bill.
After students take their second mental health day, Hernandez said they should understand that a conversation with an adult is needed about whatever it is they’re going through.
“Many students are going through a lot mentally and emotionally, and they need support,” Hernandez said.
The new Illinois mental health bill will be going into effect in January 2022.

Karolina Pliskova has proven her consistency on the WTA Tour, but the search for an elusive first Grand Slam is reaching a critical point ahead of 2020.
Along with Bianca Andreescu, Ashleigh Barty, Simona Halep and Naomi Osaka, the other nomination for the WTA’s Player of the Year award is Karolina Pliskova.
The one glaring difference between Pliskova and the other quartet on the shortlist to win the honour, though, is her 2019 Grand Slam record.
While Osaka, Barty, Halep and Andreescu tasted major success over the course of the year, the talented Czech went a third straight year without making a Grand Slam final.
She reached the semi-finals in the Australian Open, falling in three sets to eventual champion Osaka.
But the Czech struggled from there, at least by the standards of a top-ranked player, in the three other majors.
Pliskova suffered a third-round exit to Petra Martic at the French Open and followed that up with a fourth-round appearance at Wimbledon, where she lost 13-11 in the final set to compatriot Karolina Muchova.
She reached the same last-16 stage at the US Open, where Johanna Konta knocked her out, again in a deciding set.
The other top tournaments were not too much better, at least in terms of her ability to claim the tournament wins. Of the 10 next most important events: the WTA Finals, the four premier mandatory events and the premier five, Pliskova won just one with her trophy at the Italian Open in Rome.
But the fact she ended the year ranked number two highlighted her astonishing consistency week-to-week on the WTA Tour.
Her four titles in 2019 was a total not bettered by any other player and she now has four straight years finishing inside the top 10, having peaked at 1 in 2017.
So the ability is there, the consistency is there, but getting over the line at the biggest events and ultimately claiming that first major win is becoming an increasingly important priority. That will, of course, be her main focus in 2020.
It is likely why she has made a coaching change with Daniel Vallverdu, who has previously worked with Grand Slam winners like Andy Murray and Stan Wawrinka, coming in to replace Conchita Martinez.
Australia is a good place for Pliskova to start her fresh pursuit of a major. The country holds fond memories, as she has won twice at the Brisbane International and gone close at the Australian Open before, most recently with her run to the last four in Melbourne.
That effort was her best 2019 Slam performance and came after two quarter-final appearances in the preceding years.
Karolina Pliskova will be all too aware that the legacies of players like Jelena Jankovic and Dinara Safina, stars who reached the world number one spot without ever winning a Grand Slam, will be very different to those of major winners like her fellow Czech Petra Kvitova, a two-time Wimbledon champion.
Still just 27, she still has plenty of time to write her name in the history books, but while she is at the peak of her powers and flying high towards the top of the rankings, there is no better time than 2020 to deliver.

Police cars were torched as violent protests resumed in Hamburg this morning at the start of the G20 summit.
Activists blocked roads, threw petrol bombs and set fire to patrol cars near a police station, Germany’s federal force said on Twitter. A plume of black smoke was seen rising over the city. “An operation is under way against violent individuals” in the Altona district, the federal police said on Twitter. Local officials said several cars had been set alight.
Last night riot police used water cannon, pepper spray and batons against least 12,000 demonstrators. Three officers were taken to hospital and more than 70 suffered minor injuries.
Demonstrators holding banners with slogans such as “Smash G20” and “G20 mafia” gathered on a square by the…

It's to donate the baby's umbilical cord it can serve many purposes in medical research.
I purchased it for my daughter. Basically they save the cord blood and tissue (they are two seperate packages to purchase) and if your child were to end up with something like cancer they can use the cord blood to save the child's life. It's expensive though. I payed over $3,000 and then there's a yearly fee of around $200

Upper Extremity Conditions: Work-Related or Not?Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), tennis elbow, and cubital tunnel syndrome...these are just three of the most common arm problems workers seek medical care for. But whether or not the problem is work-related can't be decided by the patient or doctor based on symptoms. It's a legal decision with different laws in each state.
Studies show there is a wide range of risk factors for these common conditions. The group affected most often by CTS is middle-aged women who don't work outside the home. So the debate continues: are these problems really caused by work conditions? Or is there a pre-existing condition and work is the last straw?
One of the largest studies done of 1,757 workers concluded repetitive work was not a risk factor. Other studies disagree. In the end doctors must examine the patient and make a medical decision based on what the law says. Is work the cause of the problem according to the legal definition? If it's not then the case can't be covered by worker's compensation.

Attorneys for certain banks and other financial institutions that are caught up in Target’s 2013 data breach are objecting to the $67 million deal struck last week between the retailer and Visa Inc. The banks and credit unions are the only plaintiffs left in the data breach litigation after Target paid $10 million in March to settle more than 140 class actions filed against it by its customers. The remaining plaintiffs say that the deal does not pay them a sufficient amount for costs incurred in reissuing cards and reimbursing customers for fraudulent charges.
Made public on Aug. 18, the $67 million resolution is designed to reimburse banks that issued Visa cards affected by the breach, which compromised 40 million credit and debit cards. But plaintiffs’ lawyers say the timing of the deal is suspicious, because the deadline is September 4, just six days before a hearing on their motion for class certification. They argue that this is a ploy by Target to avoid the significantly greater amount of damages they are seeking on behalf of a class of thousands of banks and credit unions.
Visa was not a party to a data breach lawsuit against Target. Its willingness to settle could prove to be a significant advantage for Target, which fought to keep the class certification papers under seal, citing the potential risk of another attack. In May, a $19 million deal Target reached with MasterCard Inc. unraveled after fewer than 90 percent of applicable card issuers participated. Plaintiffs lawyers had sought a permanent injunction that would have prohibited Target from requiring financial institutions to release their legal claims as part of the MasterCard deal. On May 7, U.S. District Judge Paul Magnuson in Minnesota denied the injunction, but agreed that “the terms of the settlement do not appear altogether fair or reasonable.” He continued, “At the very least, the way this issue has arisen is neither fair nor is it how the court expects attorneys to conduct themselves in litigating matters before the court.”
In contrast with the MasterCard deal, there is no requirement in the Visa deal that banks and credit unions drop their legal claims. They are, however, offered additional compensation if they do so, according to reports. Target confirmed that many banks had already signed up. It has also indicated that it is working on a similar settlement with MasterCard following the collapse of its earlier agreement with that credit card issuer.
The Target saga bears watching for a host of reasons, not the least of which is the insight it provides into the costs and troubles that befall financial services providers when a data breach occurs of any significant magnitude, and the obstacles that financial services companies must contend with in seeking compensation for their losses.

Join Dr. Regan to learn about the vital topic of autism and menopause. You will understand areas of concern reported by women on the spectrum, and hear how having an ASD diagnosis helped many to understand and cope with their unique experiences.
THE GRATITUDE OF KNOWING YOU ARE NOT ALONE!
Thank you to Bobbi, a listener who offered me a glimpse of her story, and highlighted this critical topic. I thoroughly enjoyed diving into the literature about the broader issues of hormone and neuroendocrine changes that impact the experience of autism. We have so much more to learn!
Another blessing was observing others join Bobbi in the chorus by sharing their own experiences and validating her journey. I'm so grateful to hear the echoing of a collective voice around this topic and am hopeful it will strengthen women in the autistic community across all life seasons.
WHAT AUTISTIC WOMEN DESCRIBE
I believe you will be amazed and motivated when you learn about the experiences of autistic women during menopause. Although much more research is needed, an initial project was published in January 2020 by Moseley et al. In reading this paper (citation below), you will hear the voices of women describing their individual experiences.
One take-home message is that the women experienced an "amplification" of their overall autistic experience. "Introducing the term masking, participants noted that this had become much more difficult, and previous effective coping skills were failing: 'When I talk about that time, I say, "My autism broke." Before that, my autism was working fairly well for me, providing me with good job skills.'"
Many credited the diagnosis of autism (which often had been made somewhat before or after the onset of menopause) as being of significant value in helping them understand and cope with the new experiences.
Several women described social communication as even more difficult than before the hormonal shifts. They struggled to put their physical and emotional experiences into words for doctors and family to understand. Some also noted worsening sensory issues as negatively impacting their intimate relationships.
Organization, clear thinking, and executive function skills were problematic. The impact on executive function abilities led to more erratic emotional regulation. One woman stated, "During menopause, I was on 3 meltdowns per week at times . . . My meltdowns were of the nature that people would call a 'basket case'. . . Would strip down to underwear sometimes during a meltdown at work."
Menopause also amplified pre-existing difficulties with health behaviors, including sleep. Reduced sleep led to less emotional and cognitive resilience during the day.
In addition to the significant physical changes, ASD women noted that the amount of shifting in their personal lives was overwhelming. Many described having to navigate the death of parents and young adult children leaving the nest, or even break-ups with partners. The experience of several significant life changes and physical shifts felt overwhelming.
COMRADERY AND CONCLUSIONS
I believe that knowing you are not alone in your experiences will bring you hope and a sense of grounding. Sometimes having a context for undertanding what feels chaotic and confusing is often, in itself, very freeing.
We have significant room for growth and deeper understanding as we increasingly focus on autism across the lifespan. In addition to studying the trajectory of autistic symptoms in women, the study of how autistic experiences change for men is also vital. I have worked with men in mid-life who also describe emerging problems with sensory processing and increased difficulty with repetitive behaviors and relationships.
Understanding these topics more completely will lead to better support for all individuals and to innovations which ease the physical and emotional chaos experienced during hormonal shifts.

The Pandemic Guide
The pandemic has now been with us for several months, and no one knows when it’ll pass.
How can parents talk to their kids about it in a way that’s realistic and helpful but doesn’t make them worry? Here’s what the experts say:
The first and most important thing is to stay as calm as possible when you speak to your kids. “Kids look to adults for cues on how to behave or react,” says Jody Baumstein, a licensed clinical social worker, “so as hard as it may be try to stay calm while talking to your kids.”
Find Out What They Know & What They Want To Know
Start the conversation by asking them, as child psychologists Drs. Felicity Sapp and Daniel Chorney put it, “what they know, what their worries are, and what they want to know.”
This’ll help you: 1) clear up any misunderstandings (there are lots of false rumors circulating, especially on social media); 2) address the topics that concern them the most (some kids worry about what could happen to them, others are more anxious about their family and friends); and 3) assess how much information they can handle (some kids find comfort in knowing as much as possible while others prefer to know just what’s necessary. “Our challenge, as parents,” say child psychiatrists Drs. Karestan Koenen and Archana Basu, “is to consider all the information and then ask ourselves: what makes the most sense for my child?” Dr. Adam Weiss, a pediatrician, agrees: “the goal is to provide enough detail so they understand the situation and how to stay safe, but not cause them fear, confusion, or anxiety.”
Encourage Them To Ask Questions
No matter how well you explain the pandemic, your kids are likely to have a lot of questions. When kids ask questions, especially the same questions repeatedly, it’s rarely just because there’s something they don’t understand, but it’s because they’re worried. “Asking the same question over and over,” says Dr. Davis Fassler, a child psychiatrist, can be “a way for a child to ask for reassurance.” For example, if your kids keep asking why it’s so important that they wash their hands with soap every time they’ve been outside, it’s likely not because they don’t know the answer but because they’re concerned with whether they’re washing their hands well enough to protect them from the virus.
Answer your kids’ questions and address their worries, but also acknowledge when they bring something up and you don’t have a good answer. “Given how much uncertainty there is,” Ms. Rachel Ehmke of the Child Mind Institute says, “try to be comfortable saying ‘I don’t know.’” Ms. Ehmke adds that it may be tempting to want to reassure your kids that things will be better soon, even when you aren’t sure yourself: “But teaching children how to tolerate uncertainty is key to reducing anxiety and helping them build resilience.”
You can’t promise your kids that the pandemic will be over soon, but you can help empower them by talking about what they can do, in their own small way, to fight it. As Dr. Jamie Howard, a child psychologist, puts it, “kids feel empowered when they know what to do to keep themselves safe.” This includes wearing a face mask at all times when they’re outside, following social distancing guidelines, and avoid touching their face and shaking hands with anyone.
However, don’t put too much pressure on your kids. Reassure them that many smart adults (like public health experts and science researchers) are working hard to fight the pandemic and develop a vaccine. “When you reassure children that the adults are managing the situation,” says Dr. Jamie Aten, a child psychologist, “you give them permission to be kids.”
Model Good Behavior
Finally, model whatever good behavior you recommend to your kids. As Wendy Thomas Russell, the author of ParentShift and other parenting books, puts it, “you can’t expect a 6-year-old to wash her hands or a 10-year-old to isolate from his friends if their parents aren’t willing to do the same.” It’s tough but we all need to do our part to make the pandemic a part of history.

Wayne Lambright who, crippled after a tragic accident, feels himself unworthy of her love; and Jake Beechy who, after having abandoned her to explore the English world, returns to renew their courtship.
Willkumm to the lush and lavish Amish country where Wanda Brunstetter's new romantic series, Indiana Cousins, begins with A Cousin's Promise. Loraine Miller finds herself torn between the love of two good men.
When a horrific accident cripples Wayne Lambright, he finds it difficult enough to take care of himself, much less Loraine Miller, his future bride. Will he sacrifice his happiness to give her a better life?
Having already been jilted once, Loraine is terrified of yet another rejection. But does she love Wayne enough to marry him, for better or worse? When her old boyfriend Jake Beechy returns from exploring the English world, he hopes Loraine will give him another chance.
How will God work to give Loraine the desires of her heart? To which man will she pledge her love and loyalty - for better or worse, until death they do part?
A Cousin's Promise is the first book in the Indiana Cousins series. Early in the book a group of teenagers are in a car wreck and the rest of the book is about the aftermath of the accident and how it changed their lives. Before the accident Loraine and Wayne are engaged to be married, but when Wayne gets crippled he tries to figure out what is the best thing to do for himself and for Loraine since he can't provide for her now.
When Jake, Loraine's previous boyfriend, hears about the accident he comes home for the first time since he left the community to make more money. He has broken her heart once already, but Loraine is surprised at her feelings toward Jake when he returns.
Loraine is caught between these two guys. Wayne is pushing her away and difficult to be around, but she still loves him. Jake is fun to be with and obviously still has feelings for her. She gets all kinds of unwanted advice from her mom, Wayne's mom, and her best friend and cousin, Ella. I was shocked at how the moms were acting toward Loraine and the things they said to her. I guess I never thought of the Amish as having that kind of bickering, but it's human nature especially when mama's little chicks are involved.
A Cousin's Promise was a very interesting read and I felt connected to the characters right away. By the end of the book I was in the story with all of them and rooting for Loraine. The story showed a lot about forgiveness and persevering with finding what God wants, not necessarily what other people want. You might not want to read this when you're down in the dumps, though, since it deals with issues after a tragic accident. Throughout much of the book I kept wondering when something good was going to happen and was ready for things to get better. But I do recommend it and am looking forward to the rest of the series. Oh, and the ending will blow you away! But you'll have to read it for yourself.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Wanda enjoys writing about the Amish because they live a peaceful, simple life─something she says we all need in this day and age.
Using the knowledge her Amish friends have shared with her, Wanda has also produced several children’s titles in the Rachel Yoder─Always Trouble Somewhere series, an Amish cookbook, and a devotional collection entitled The Simpler Life, which was released in July 2008 and celebrates the virtues of the Amish lifestyle. Wanda and her husband are members of the fellowship of Christian Magicians.
Wanda is also a member of the North American Association of ventriloquists, American Christian Fiction Writers, and the Northwest Christian Writers Association. She lives in Washington State, where her husband pastors, but takes every opportunity to visit Amish settlements across the country.

Sept. 30, 2019– Since 2018, Medicare payment cuts to many 340B hospitals have reduced the already limited resources that hospitals rely on to care for their patients living with low incomes. With the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) proposing to continue those reductions into 2020, 340B Health is calling on the agency to end the cuts now and fully pay back affected hospitals.
We submitted our official comment letter to CMS on its 2020 Medicare outpatient prospective payment system proposed rule on Sept. 27. In the comments, we urge the administration to restore Medicare Part B pay rates for 340B hospitals to the full statutory level of average sales price (ASP) plus 6 percent. For many 340B hospitals, their rate since the beginning of 2018 has been ASP minus 22.5 percent. This translates into a pay cut of nearly 30 percent and a loss of about $25 million to hospitals for every week the reductions remain in place.
A federal judge presiding over a lawsuit filed by hospital organizations has found that the 2018 and 2019 cuts were unlawful because the administration exceeded its authority in implementing them. The reductions remain in place while that decision is being appealed.
We note that there is no basis in law for paying 340B hospitals less than the full statutory rate in 2020. We also call on the administration to implement a remedy that recalculates 2018 and 2019 pay rates at the full statutory rate and retroactively pays back affected hospitals with interest.
Medicare officials “can implement a remedy that is easily administered, not disruptive to the Medicare program or its beneficiaries, does not require new rulemaking, and fully compensates 340B hospitals for the amount lost due to the unlawful payment reduction,” our comment letter states.
Until CMS changes course, the Medicare payment reductions to 340B hospitals will continue and a remedy for past reductions will remain unfulfilled. And that means safety-net hospitals will continue to grapple with the consequences of undercutting a 340B program intended to provide more needed care to people with low incomes.

Business cards remain one of the hallmarks of marketing for businesses of all sizes. Business cards are invaluable in customer-facing roles such as real estate and consulting. They are essential for freelancers and contractors since the business card is often the only lasting connection someone has after a face to face meeting with you. Here are a few tips for designing your next business card.
Look at It from the Receiver’s Point of View
Always look at the business card from the receiver’s point of view. Put the information down that they expect and require before you add extras like lovely flourishes and cute icons. Ensure that the text is readable by someone who is holding in their hand and may not be wearing their reading glasses. This includes having easy to read fonts in moderately large text. Don’t forget to put the contact information in a familiar format, since deviating from these conventions is a turn off with most prospective clients. Don’t make the business card so busy that they’re confused as to what you do or simply can’t make out any of the images on the card.
You can and should include your website address or email address. If you really need to include social media links, that could be shared on the back of the business card. However, your goal is to get them to contact you, not visit five social media profiles to determine how to reach you.
Use a Template
Whether you need to design a business card for your new business or want to revamp the business cards you use, try a business card template instead of trying to work from scratch. Business card templates have built-in design elements. This takes a lot of the guesswork out of where to put text, how large logos and graphics need to be, and what type of design elements you can include. It can’t prevent you from using a colour too light to be legible or eliminate a thumbprint from the picture you just took. However, it eliminates most of the common mistakes people make when trying to work with a blank screen in graphics editing software.
Design the Card So It Is Portable
Too many people forget that a business card may sit in someone’s wallet or drawer for weeks before they review it again. This affects the business card in several ways. First, invest in quality cardstock that won’t fall apart if shoved into a wallet. Second, put a neat border around the text and images so that casual handling or minor damage to the edges doesn’t render critical information unreadable. Third, places images where minor smudges and rips don’t undermine their quality. This is one point in favour of having a large sample image on the back of the business card where the centre of attention is literally in the middle of the card. Fourth, choose business cards that conveniently fit in a credit card pocket or business cardholder. If you want to be creative with the physical card’s design, choose a matte finish, rounded edges, or foil flourishes.

According to billboard.com, Brian Setzer is busy:
"Stray Cats principal Brian Setzer has set a July 26 release date for his next Surfdog album, 'Rockabilly Riot Vol. One -- A Tribute to Sun Records.' The 23-track set features covers of such tracks as Carl Perkins' 'Blue Suede Shows,' Warren Smith's 'Red Cadillac & a Black Moustache' and Johnny Cash's 'Get Rhythm.'
Setzer is backed on the set by the Nash-Villains, consisting of drummer Bernie Dresel, bassist Mark Winchester and pianist Kevin McKendree. In other news, Setzer is readying another Christmas album, 'Dig That Crazy Christmas,' for an October release via Surfdog. The collection will include new versions of 'Jingle Bell Rock,' 'My Favorite Things' and 'White Christmas,' among others."
Setzer may not be Advanced exactly, but I sure do like him for some reason. I remember think when I first heard the Stray Cats (on HBO's "Video Jukebox") that he had a great voice and that it was too bad his band would never be popular. Shows you what I know, I guess.


What you need to know:
- On Sunday, matatu owners warned commuters that fare hikes will be inevitable if the proposed higher taxes are imposed.
President William Ruto’s quest to reinstate an unpopular fuel tax his predecessor was forced to shelve revives the politics that stalks petroleum pricing and exposes doublespeak by leaders on the matter of immense public interest.
Starting July 1, Kenyans have been warned to brace for higher living costs should a proposal in the Finance Bill 2023 to subject petroleum products to 16 percent Value Added Tax (VAT), up from the current eight percent, be implemented.
National Assembly Majority Leader Kimani Ichung’wah and Budget Committee Chairman Ndindi Nyoro will be tasked to champion the Bill in the House, essentially whipping ruling coalition members to pass the unpopular law they vehemently opposed in 2021.
Audit firm KPMG, in its review of the Bill, warns the proposal “is likely to impact the prices of transport and production of goods, increasing the inflationary pressure on the economy.”
On Sunday May 7, matatu owners warned commuters fare hikes will be inevitable if the higher taxes are imposed on fuel.
“We know very well that for products to reach consumers they have to be transported, so every product's prices will go up," said Matatu Owners Association Chairman Simon Kimutai.
President Ruto’s Kenya Kwanza administration, which in March entered into a deal with the United Arab Emirates to import fuel on credit for up to one year to ease pressure on dollar demand, has triggered a storm with the push to increase VAT on fuel to 16 per cent, following in the footsteps of former President Uhuru Kenyatta who unsuccessfully attempted it in September 2018.
At the time, a transitional clause, which VAT-exempted petroleum products for two years, had expired. The House had voted to defer the 16 per cent VAT by another two years but President Kenyatta disagreed and went ahead to slash it by half to eight per cent, saying, the government needed additional revenue to finance rising demands.
The Kenyatta administration faced a strike by some oil dealers, backlash from commuters and a lawsuit after imposition of the 16 per cent VAT on all petroleum products triggered a hike in transport and fuel prices.
So stormy was the House session that several MPs walked out of the National Assembly, prompting then chairperson of the Committee on the Whole House Soipan Tuya to order a recount to establish quorum. Upon the House reverting to plenary, then Speaker Justin Muturi had a hard time cooling tempers after MPs faulted the voting system. The Speaker suspended the sitting for 15 minutes to allow parliamentary staff to assess the problem.
The proposals contained in Mr Kenyatta’s memorandum on the Bill were adopted after it emerged that there were only 215 MPs present in the House. Parliament requires at least two-thirds majority, or 233 of the 349 MPs, to veto a memorandum.
At the time, then ruling Jubilee Party MPs Kimani Ichung’wah (Kikuyu) and Ndindi Nyoro (Kiharu) said the 16 per cent VAT had been envisaged upon the country embarking on commercial oil production.
“Mine would be to ask the National Treasury to reconsider that provision or defer its implementation to allow ... commercial production of oil. When the base prices come down, we can charge VAT on petroleum fuel,” Mr Ichung’wah said.

Mr Nyoro added: “We cannot afford to burden the people by imposing VAT on oil products.”
But, after the falling out between President Kenyatta and his deputy, Dr Ruto, in 2021, and when the matter resurfaced in the House, the pro-Ruto camp was boldly vocal against the additional taxes on fuel. That was on September 21, 2021, during deliberations on the Finance Act,2018 to address increases in prices of petroleum products.
“We must begin by asking ourselves as a House whether it is not time to amend Article 115(4) of the Constitution that gives the President the powers to legislate through the back door. We must begin to ask ourselves whether it is time to amend that [law] so that ... on matters that touch on the people that we represent, the President cannot [impose his will],” said Mr Ichung’wah.
Then Garissa Township MP Aden Duale said the House had rejected the increase in price and imposition of VAT on petroleum products, “but the President used his powers under Article 115.”
Mr Duale blamed the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for railroading the government to charge the VAT and then going ahead to give the implication of various taxes on the runaway pump prices.
“On the matter of fuel, for every litre of petrol you buy, Sh78 goes to taxation. I want to tell the House that Excise Duty is Sh15 per litre; Kshs18 goes to the Road Maintenance Levy Fund; Sh7 goes to the Petroleum Development Fund and Sh2 goes to the Petroleum Levy Fund. VAT is Sh12 for every litre of petrol and Sh8 for every litre of diesel. Cumulatively, out of the Sh145 you pay for a litre of petrol, Sh78 goes to taxation,” Mr Duale said.
He went on: “This House must rise to the occasion. We must bring a Bill. The President cannot use Article 115 to harass Kenyans. The whole thing is about IMF, who said we must charge VAT. We must reduce the Sh78 taxation on a litre of petrol and other levies.”
Mr Duale is now the Defence Cabinet Secretary who sat in the Cabinet chaired by President Ruto that approved the Finance Bill 2023. Just as was the case then, the Ruto administration is also battling the high cost of living.
Prices of basic commodities are expected to continue to rise if the government increases fuel prices as a result of newly introduced taxes at a time fuel subsidies have been withdrawn.
The increment of fuel taxes goes against President Ruto’s election pledges that included removing taxes on fuel to lower its cost and reduce the cost of basic commodities. President Ruto had, in his inauguration speech, announced the end of the subsidy programme, saying, it would cost the country Sh230 billion by the end of this financial year. He cited a study indicating the subsidy had failed to achieve the intended purpose of lowering the cost of living. The move resulted in sharp increase in the price of petrol by 13 per cent.
Economists agreed that subsidies are unsustainable for Kenya.
But the Finance Bill, 2023 will also come with a relief to households using cooking gas after the government proposed exemption of eight per cent VAT on Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG).
A 16 per cent VAT on LPG had been introduced through the Finance Act, 2020 but the implementation was pushed back to July 2021 amid concerns over high living costs.
Subsequently, through the Finance Act 2022, the VAT was implemented on LPG, but the rate was reduced to eight percent.
The scraping of gas taxes not nly comes as a relief to Kenyans who use gas, but will also boost efforts to adopt green energy to positively impact the climate.
This is part of President Ruto’s administration effort to lower prices of cooking gas across the country. President Ruto has promised to reduce a six-kilo gas cylinder to either Sh300 or Sh500 by June 2023.

Our last day in Bologna. We finished up our work at Damiani.
Then went on a tourist mission. Scoping out churches, and walking around taking pictures.
This statue was pretty creepy.
We took a sleeper train to Paris.
Then after a change at the Gare du Nord in Paris, we took the train under the English Channel, affectionately called 'the chunnel' or Channel Tunnel. I read magazines.
And so did Deanna.
Then we got to London. (where Deanna got her first Tasty Beverage in over a month and was ecstatic)
There was a giant piece by my friends OsGemeos on the outside of the Tate Modern. Yep, its a wiener
Inside some artists' work was out of order. Bummer.
We ate at one of our favorite places, Eat and 2 Veg. In the UK they are not afraid of the word 'vegan
We had a vegan mocha shake (spiked with a tad of Kahlua) and Deanna decreed it the 'tastiest beverage ever'
We spent the rest of the night lurking the streets with our cameras. It was cold and rainy and we were shooting leggy girls in micro mini-skirts in the car lights going from club to club. And we did some skee-ball in some crazy arcade-mall. Watched some gay people fight. Have to say it was a long two days.

The song is explosive and played with a ferocious appetite of guitars and thumping drums, even some nice keyboard, shout-out vocals and all kinds of unexpected electronic swirly, squeaky noises. ‘California Wildfire’ is, as expected, about a voracious fire and the tune certainly moves by a series of twisters going as fast as the Californian hills can get burn at the end of the summer; and it sounds as sharp as classic rock with a sort of twist.
I’m certainly late on this, because the local press has been raving about The Henry Clay People for a while now. They played Coachella last April, and I read they closed their set by covering Springsteen’s ‘Born to Run’. It is barely surprising when you listen to this song, they seem to be on the run, an anxious run.
Formed in 2005 by brothers Joey and Andy Siara, The Henry Clay People have already released a few albums and toured the US with Silversun Pickups, Against Me! and Drive-By Truckers.
‘California Wildfire’ by the Henry Clay People is a track off their ‘This is a Desert’ EP, and they offer it for free download in exchange of your email address here:

I do offsite backups using BackupPC. The amount of data increases constantly so I need to add occasionally hard disks. Additionally I want the data to be encrypted, at least after powering off the system that is running the BackupPC application. So I decided to use logical volume management (LVM) and block device encryption (cryptsetup). The following steps were needed (on Ubuntu Feisty):
pvcreate /dev/sdb1Before you can use any physical volume with LVM you have to initialize it. Allways initalize a partition, never the whole disk (even if the disk has only one partition). LVM has no problems with the whole disk, but other partitioning tools will think that this disk is not in use (because it appears to be not partitioned).
vgcreate backuppcvg /dev/sdb1I created a volume group called "backuppcvg" which will contain all my logical volumes (actually only one for now). The volume group consists for now only of sdb1.
lvcreate -L 233.75G -nbackuplv backupvgNow I create a logical volume called "backuplv" in the volume group "backuppcvg". I use all available space in this volume group.
cryptsetup create cryptobackup /dev/mapper/backuppcvg/backuplvNow I setup the encryption for the logical volume "/dev/mapper/backuppcvg/backuplv", which I just created. Data written to the device "/dev/mapper/cryptobackup" goes first thru the encryption module and the encrypted data is written to the device "/dev/mapper/backuppcvg/backuplv" (that's called device mapping).
mkfs.ext3 /dev/mapper/cryptobackupNow I format the device "/dev/mapper/cryptobackup" with the ext3 file system
mount /dev/mapper/cryptobackup /var/lib/backuppcNow I mount the volume for use with BackupPC
If I want to increase the available space for backups, I need to add a physical disk. That's done as follows:
vgextend backuppcvg /dev/sdc1
cryptsetup remove cryptobackup
lvextend -L345.54G /dev/backuppcvg/backuplvHere I increase the size of the logical volume to a final size of 345.54 GB. It is important that you cannot reverse this step if you do not now the blocksize as the shrink command accepts only the new (smaller) size in blocks! So before doing this you should figure out how many blocks the old logical volume comprises!
cryptsetup create cryptobackup /dev/mapper/backuppcvolumegroup-backuplv
e2fsck -f /dev/mapper/cryptobackupCheck whether the filesystem is consistent and ready for expansion
resize2fs /dev/mapper/cryptobackupResize the ext3 filesystem. If you don't give any size it will use all available space of the underlying device
mount /dev/mapper/cryptobackup /var/lib/backuppcMount the new larger logical volume

Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins revealed that Kurt Cobain had a powerful singing relationship with Dave Grohl in a recent KLOS interview. Alternative Nation transcribed his comments. Dave Grohl was recently filmed dancing with an A-list star.
“Dave told me that when Kurt was writing [‘Pennyroyal Tea’], I don’t know if he was writing it, but he was playing it for him in their first apartment in Aberdeen. I think it was Aberdeen, I don’t know, I wasn’t there. He told me Dave was singing a harmony, just almost by accident, and that’s the harmony that is on the record. It really creates this amazing sort of weird tension that is just perfect.
That was a perfect band, Nirvana was a perfect perfect band. You knew it the second you saw them, the second you heard them. That guy sounds like John Lennon, that guy plays drums like Animal, and that bassist is a cool weird hippy bouncing around. They were perfect. Then they’re not here anymore, and Dave started this band called Foo Fighters, and instead of me delivering pizzas [I’m here].”
Grohl previously revealed what Cobain thought of an early “Alone + Easy Target” demo. Grohl also recently revealed an embarrassing secret about a fired Queens of the Stone Age member.
“Kurt heard that, and kissed me on the face, as he was in a bath,” Grohl said. “He was so excited. He was like, ‘I heard you recorded some stuff with Barrett [Jones].’ I was like, ‘Yeah.’ He was like, ‘Let me hear it.’ I was too afraid to be in the same room as he listened to it.”

Delaware Commission upholds one-year ban for Vitali
Marucs Vitali in happier times. Photo by Lauren King.
Barring an intervention from the court system, Marcus Vitali won’t be training horses again any time soon.
Following a hearing that went on for over four hours, the Delaware Thoroughbred Racing Commission on Wednesday voted unanimously to affirm its stewards’ July 22 decision to suspend Vitali for 365 days and fine him $2,500.
Vitali’s attorney, Alan Pincus, said afterwards that he and his client would “have to talk this over” before he would know if they would appeal. If he were to appeal, the next step would be into the state court system.
The case has been, in some respects, a comedy of errors, yet one with real consequences both for the participants and for the integrity of the game itself.
It arose in May when Delaware Park security was called to break up an altercation between two of Vitali’s employees. When security arrived, one of those employees, Brucie Garrett, asked they accompany her back to her dorm room because she wanted to give them something she was holding that she said she “wasn’t comfortable with.”
The two security officials, Mickaela Lee and supervisor Dan Panaro, did so. But when Garrett bent down to take the item — which she described as “a vial” but which Vitali said was a baggie with what appeared to be marijuana in it — from the vegetable compartment of her refrigerator, Vitali suddenly entered the room, grabbed the item, and left with it.
“All of a sudden, Marcus flew in between us all, grabbed it, pocketed it, and fled,” Garrett testified.
“It only took seconds, in and out,” Panaro added.
“I’m looking, they’re looking, nobody can see nothing,” Vitali testified. “I see what looks like weed in a baggie, I grabbed it.”
Vitali took the item back towards his barn at what Lee described as “a faster pace of walk.”
By the time the security officials caught up with him, Vitali said he no longer had the item, having disposed of it in a nearby trash can. Yet no one ever searched either the trash can or Vitali himself, leaving a conspicuous gray area in the case.
In Vitali’s telling, he’s the victim of his own good — if ill-considered — deed. He told the Commission that he grabbed the baggie to prevent the investigators from finding pot that Garrett had been storing for the employee with whom she had been fighting.
“I should have just let it go,” he lamented. “Let them take the thing, throw the kid out. Just too many drugs, too many things going on back here.”
But Garrett painted a different, and darker, picture of the Vitali operation. What’s more, she said, as a recovering drug addict, she would never store drugs for someone.
Garrett alleged that Vitali had bullied her into storing unmarked vials of a clear liquid that had not been identified to her. She said she had personally witnessed Vitali injecting a horse on race day with the liquid.
“I was told it was an anti-biotic,” she said. “I didn’t ask.”
Her testimony was in part supported by that of a veterinarian, Dr. Don Johnson, who said Vitali one day gave him an unmarked vial of the liquid and intimated he should administer it to one his horses.
“Whatever it was, it wasn’t an ethical substance,” Johnson said. “I wasn’t going to use it… It could be anything.”
He said that Vitali claimed it was a vitamin supplement — “I’d have to be skeptical,” Johnson said — and he told Garrett, via text message, that she should not store the vials for Vitali.
Vitali denied forcing his employee to store any vials and said that, when Garrett testified about his injecting a horse, she was lying “one hundred percent.”
Pincus’ strategy depended in part on underlining discrepancies in various testimonies. Both Johnson and Garrett, for example, testified to a similar event at which Vitali presented the veterinarian with a vial. But they differed as to what kind of a vial it was, with Johnson saying it had a screw-top cap and Garrett alleging it had the kind of top used for injectable medications.
And Pincus sought to portray Commission executive director John Wayne as the bad guy.
“Mr. Wayne, whose fingerprints are all over this, is not to be trusted,” Pincus told the Commission in his opening statement.
Pincus called Wayne’s decision to deny Vitali a stay of the ruling pending the outcome of this afternoon’s hearing “vindictive” and said it was “inappropriate” for Wayne to tell The Racing Biz that Vitali “is a breach of integrity.“
And he said that Wayne even approached Vitali in the paddock one afternoon and told him “he was going to get him.” That claim was not fully supported by testimony, however, with Vitali saying only that Wayne had told him “I’ll be watching you.”
All of that could, perhaps, have put investigators’ failures to search the garbage can or have Vitali empty his pockets — or even to prevent him from grabbing the item in the first place — in a more sinister light.
But Oliver Cleary, who as the deputy attorney general at the Delaware Department of Justice represented the stewards, pointed out that by interfering in an ongoing investigation and disposing of evidence germane to that investigation, Vitali had committed a felony under Delaware law.
“We probably should have called the state police at that point,” Vitali said.
“I agree,” said Cleary.
Cleary pointed out that Vitali has had numerous adverse rulings on medication issues over the years and told the Commission, in closing, that for most of the last couple of years, “Mr. Vitali has been suspended for his conduct.”
In the end, Pincus acknowledged the need for punishment but called the one-year term handed out “outrageous.” The denial of stay, Pincus said, had already caused his client to be “crucified financially.”
But Cleary differed.
“Even if I accept everything Mr. Vitali says is true,” he pointed out, “he has admitted to committing a… felony.”

When you bring your pet in for a wellness exam, your veterinarian will examine your pet’s case history and ask if you have any issues with your dog or cat’s health or habits. Your vet will likewise inquire about your pet’s nutrition, way of life, workout regimen, thirst, and urination.
What to Expect If You Take Your Pet to a Wellness Exam
Many veterinarians require pet owners to bring a fresh sample of their pet’s feces (defecation) for a fecal exam. Fecals are crucial for identifying intestinal parasites that can seriously affect your pet’s health.
Following that, your veterinarian will carry out a physical exam of your pet, which will often involve the following:
- Your pet’s weight
- Examining the animal’s position and movement for irregularities
- Examining your pet’s feet and nails for symptoms of injury or more significant health concerns
- Examining your pet’s heart and lungs
- Examine your dog’s or cat’s skin for indications of dryness, parasites, or lumps.
- Taking a look at the total health of your pet’s coat, keeping an eye out for dandruff or bald spots
- Analyzing the eyes for redness, cloudiness, problems with the eyelids, excessive tearing, or discharge
- Analyze your pet’s ears for bacterial infection, termites, wax accumulation, or polyps.
- Analyzing your pet’s teeth for indications of gum illness, injury, or tooth decay
- Feeling (palpating) along your pet’s body for symptoms of sickness such as swelling, proof of lameness such as restricted series of movement, and signs of discomfort.
- Palpate your pet’s abdomen to see if the internal organs are typical and for discomfort signs.
These tests can be completed rapidly as long as no problems are found. Vaccinations will be administered at your pet’s wellness exam based on the correct schedule for your cat or dog.
Cat and dog vaccination and boosters for older dogs and cats are crucial to providing your pet the best possibility of living a long and pleased life. Keeping your pet’s immunizations updated throughout life will prevent them from numerous contagious, potentially deadly illnesses and conditions.
Some Pets Require Further Testing
In addition to the routine exams discussed above, your veterinarian might recommend extra wellness testing. When determining whether to have extra tests performed on your dog or cat, remember that, in many circumstances, early treatment of disease is less costly and less invasive than dealing with the ailment once it has progressed to more extreme stages.
The tests listed below screen for a variety of health problems and can help in discovering the first indications of illness, even before symptoms appear:
- Thyroid hormone screening
- Complete blood count (CDC).
Extra diagnostic tests in an animal hospital in Denver, such as x-rays and other imaging, may be suggested if you have an old pet or a huge type of dog. These additional tests, carried out once a year, supply your veterinarian with crucial details about your pet’s health and the development of any age-related conditions. This proactive method of veterinary treatment can assist your pet in staying mobile and healthy into old age. To read more about it, you can click here.
After Your Pet’s Routine Wellness Examination
After the assessment and your pet’s annual vaccinations, your veterinarian will discuss any findings. If your veterinarian notices any signs of illness or damage, they will seek advice from you about more comprehensive diagnostics or treatment options.
Assume your dog or cat has gotten a clean bill of health. Your veterinarian may offer suggestions or suggestions concerning your pet’s nutrition and workout regimens, oral health, or parasite prevention.


If you asked about my opinion, I would say that premium laptop with the highest specs, graphics options, storage, and processing speed fail in front of machines with huge battery life. I don’t think that those technological beasts can beat good battery timing. I mean, what is the point of a remote device if it can’t hold its charging?
For extended battery life, users usually expect more than 10 hours of battery backup. That is precisely what we kept in mind before writing this description. 10 – 15 hours of life is enough to attend long meetings, online classes, gaming, and cross-country travel. Put that down; these laptops are made for everything.
- HP Chromebook 11-inch Laptop – 15 Hours Battery Backup
- 2022 HP Stream 14in laptop – 14.15 Hours (video playback), up to 11.30 Hours (wireless streaming
- Microsoft Surface Laptop – Core i5-1035G1 Processor, 8 GB RAM, 512 GB Solid State Drive
- HP 15-inch Laptop – (Best for Personal, Gaming, Business 7-8 hours backup)
- 2021 HP 15.6″ HD WLED Laptop – Li-ion battery with up to 10 hours long battery life
Here are some long battery laptops:
Buying guide: laptop with long battery life and lightweight
The battery type used:
So, what makes the battery timing suitable? Well, it depends on various factors, and type of the battery used is a crucial one. NiMH battery is ranked on the top if we talk about this matter. It provides a minimum battery backup of 10 – 14 hours. But some users have claimed that NiMH battery can affect the memory. So, to avoid this, we will suggest a Lithium battery because it offers the same battery backup and does not increase the overall weight of your laptop.
I can understand if your overall objective for a laptop is its battery life, but what would you do with a computer that struggles at running correctly? Make sure that your computer has enough specs to give you the expected performance.
Sometimes, NiMH battery can affect the memory of your device. So, add enough memory to store your data and enough ram to run your device smoothly. I think 8GB DDR4 ram and 500+ SSD M1 should be your minimum requirements for regular usage.
Choose a trusted brand:
Name of the brand matters. It is about trusting someone for everything they say about their product. Don’t go for a brand that no one has ever heard of, or don’t fall for names at all. For example, if you choose a Dell laptop, then you should read its reviews too. As your primary concern is about battery hours, you should go for something that comes from a famous brand and has good customer reviews.
Cheapest Laptop With Longest Battery Life
We crafted the following devices that can meet your battery hour needs.
HP 14, AMD Ryzen 5
I’ve used this laptop for a long time, and I am still using it. I don’t know how to say this, but Ryzen 5 is a beast of processing, battery timing, and performance. If you consider this laptop, you shouldn’t think about anything else; place your order, and you will know the value of your money within a week.
Most of its users are still using it with its built-in 8GB DDR4 RAM, but they should add an 8GB DDR4 stick to unlock its true power. Because without it, you are missing about 40% of its potential. Moreover, you should add extra space with an additional 500GB SSD M2 storage option to increase its overall load time.
If you are a game lover, you should not worry about anything because you won’t find anything like this at these cheap rates. It offers a 1080p display and will indeed offer you some sharp and clean graphics.
Samsung Chromebook Plus V2
I think Samsung always offers some mouthwatering deals like this one right here. This beast got some severe specs within a light weighted metallic body. 7th generation m3 processor, impressive battery hours, sharp and stylish design, and much more to talk about.
You will have an Intel 7th generation m3 processor, the most reliable thing in the Chromebook industry, but it can be a bit underpowered for windows. It is still providing you with an impressive 1 – 2.4 GHz clock speed and 4.5 W TDP.
We ran a battery test of this machine, and we weren’t so happy or disappointed. We noticed a 12% battery drop within one and a half hours while doing nothing. So, we can expect about 10 – 11 hours of battery life, which is not so bad, certainly for a cheap device like this. I used this laptop for about three days without charging it.
Acer Aspire 5
I can sit here for a whole day and write on this lightweight device. If you are looking for something with $300 – $400, a device that can handle your hectic routine while staying alive with you, then you should go for it. When I ordered this laptop, I hoped for extra battery hours, but I got a lot more than that. Buy this machine for $300, add a bit more for an extra ram and storage, sit back and enjoy the actual performance. Within a week, you will realize that you got a lot more in 1/3 rates people spend on trash.
It offers 4GBs of DDR4 ram and 128GB of SSD M2 storage option. If you avoid adding extra spaces, you will miss about 50% of the actual potential. I will suggest about 8GB of ram, and 256 or 500GB of storage space. Then sit back, and watch it fly to the heights.
According to our battery testing, we witnessed about 12 hours of battery backup which should be more than enough. An average user will forget about charging this thing at all.
HP 15, 11th Gen Intel Core i5
If you are a freelancer and have to work in different locations where it is impossible to charge any device, then close your eyes, and go for this device. Its lightweight, impressive battery life, specs, and performance make this a stand out device within this price range.
It comes with an 11th generation i5 processor and offers maximum processing speed. To unleash its true power, you should add an additional 8GB DDR4 stick along with its built-in ram. If you are missing such detailing, then you are wasting about 30% of true potential. If you love games, then you will be stunned with its 1080p IPS anti-glare display, 15.6 inches screen size, and about 10 hours of battery life.
HP Chromebook 11-inch Laptop
According to my testing, I think this device is not made for gaming or heavy business use. If you are looking for an aesthetic device with limited yet reliable features, you should buy this. It will be an ideal machine for a student who has to deal with tons of assignments or even a freelancer who wants extra battery life.
We tested its battery life, and we were stunned by the results. We notice an 8% of battery drop within an hour while watching a movie on it. Moreover, we got about 15 hours of battery hours which is mouthwatering.
Its storage and RAM options are disappointing, as it offers 32 GBs of storage space and 4GB of DDR4 RAM. To use it at its full potential, I recommend adding an extra 4GB of RAM and about 256GBs of SSD M2 storage option.
2020 Apple MacBook Air Laptop
I’ve always been a fan of MacBook Apple and their features. We are all very aware of the place and standard that apple got for its devices. After three months of using this laptop, I am still satisfied with its performance, promises, and reliability. Pro Tip: make sure to add as much memory and RAM as you can afford because you will keep on seeing its true potential.
Still, without an upgrade, you will have eight cores of CPU and GPU, which is more than enough for every user—8GBs of DDR4 ram for smoothness and 512 GBs of storage space for the fastest load time.
According to our battery testing, it offers about 15 – 18 hours of battery backup, which will make you forget about charging this thing for a couple of days. It can be an ideal solution for a freelancer or a businessman who has to travel a lot.
ASUS Laptop L210
Within its light-weighted body lies something special. With Intel Celeron N4020 Processor and excellent battery timing, ASUS has become a leading brand in the tech industry. We know that storage and RAM options are a bit disappointing but still worth buying.
I replaced its built-in storage options with 16GBs of DDR3 RAM and 500GBs of SSD M1 NVMe storage option, and it got speedy as Hell! The best thing about this laptop is its extra slot for adding additional ROM, so you don’t have to remove the old drive and copy its data.
It is an excellent value to your money, only available in a couple of hundred dollars. You won’t find a better device as this is within the cheapest price range. Moreover, it will stay alive for about 10 – 13 hours easily.
Samsung Chromebook 4
Samsung has always been impressive in providing reliable and compatible devices to its users. Chromebook 4 is an example of their excellence. I mean, which brand offers a 15 hours battery backup for $150? Keep reading.
Along with its Intel Celeron Processor, it offers a UHD 600 Graphics chip as well. Military-grade multi-layer virus protection system makes it trustworthy for business organizations. Disappointing for most users because of its lower RAM and ROM, but it will provide the smoothest performance when upgraded to 8GB of DDR4 RAM and 256 SSD M1 NVMe storage. Lastly, we tested about 15 hours of battery backup.
We’ve been receiving some questions about the best battery laptops, and we thought to answer them here. Keep reading!
What is the best type of battery?
Which battery type is safer?
What is the best laptop with long battery life and lightweight?
I know the importance of reliable battery hours because I have suffered from such circumstances as well. Laptops are made for remote usage, and if one laptop does not have enough battery life to support your needs without charging, I don’t see a point in using such devices.
Some RTX laptops for Game lovers, Video streaming, Live streaming, Youtube video making, Graphics design and all in one laptop.
