In the real world everyone makes mistakes that cannot be fixed. In William Shakespeare 's Romeo and Juliet both the Capulets and the Montagues make several mistakes, but there is one person most responsible. Juliet 's father, Lord Capulet, is most to blame for the events that occurred and for his daughter 's death. Romeo would have never met Juliet if Lord Capulet had kicked him out of the party. In scene 5 of act 1 Tybalt recognized Romeo and instead of dueling him, Lord Capulet said to leave Romeo alone.
What does love mean to you? Love is a feeling you never realize until it is gone. Young love may come too fast and because of that there can be consequences. By using paradox, allusion, and metaphors of Romeo and Juliet, my shakespeare, and love's vocabulary; try to explain how love has a gamit of emotions.
Most people believe that romance brings love and affection, but when taken to the extreme, it can lead to tragedy and despair. Romeo and Juliet may be the most famous of the great literary tragedies. The feud between the Montagues and Capulets prohibits the love and ultimately results in the death of the “star-crossed lovers”. It may be difficult to truly determine who is to blame for the tragedy because their lives were influenced and affected by many figures. But the question is, who is most to blame for the death of the two lovers?
The concept of blame is extremely prevalent within the play, “Romeo and Juliet,” written by William Shakespeare. More precisely, whose fault it is for the death of the two star crossed lovers for which whom are the protagonists. There are many different opinions on the topic of whose fault it is for the death of Romeo and Juliet, but it is very widely thought to be Friar Lawrence’s fault, along with Romeo and Juliet, for the unanticipated death of the two star crossed lovers. Friar Lawrence is the member of the church who married Romeo and Juliet in act II scene III of the play.
Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy about two young star-crossed lovers who come from opposing families that are constantly feuding. Romeo is a Montague whilst Juliet is a Capulet. Although the most obvious theme in the play is love, there are several scenes which contain conflict. This essay considers some of the ways that conflict is presented in Act III scene 1.
Innocent area such as Romeo and Juliet's there are many different people that can be blamed for the tragedy, in this case the main person to blame is Lord Capulet. You may not agree now but by the end of the reading of this you will see my reason and hopefully great. Often times people will dismiss Capulet's actions without given a second thought plainly because there's not enough evidence and/or reasoning to back up this claim. Or Capulet is one of the most close minded and stubborn characters within the story. To begin, or Capulet had little to no respect for women.
Which kinds of love are most fulfilling? A smart man once said that “ Real love you feel it, you see it, you show it! Fake love is just words...”(~unknown) thus stating that real love is stating the truth while fake love is full of lies. This quote can be connected to The Great Gatsby due to it being full of counterfeit emotions, and can be attached to Twelfth Night by William Shakespeare by the excess amount of true love. The two are different due to one being a comedy while the other is full of tragedy, but both of the stories centers around love making it the main theme in both of these tales.
Apparently, this is because the language is hard to understand and susceptible to misinterpretation. The most common quote "wherefore art thou Romeo" is commonly misunderstood as "where are you Romeo" and misinterpreted as Juliet simply missing Romeo. However, the actual meaning "why are you Romeo" is much deeper in that it questions the existence of Romeo and the essence of the feud that is hindering their relationship. One of the most popular quote by Juliet "[a] rose by any other name would smell as sweet" is such an aesthetic work of language to illustrate that Juliet is in love with Romeo despite him being named as Romeo Montague. I certainly agree that Romeo and Juliet is a beautiful work of art and is worth studying.
Love and its tragic consequences in Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. Love is one of the main themes throughout William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. It is noticeable how affection grows between the two teenagers, and how their lives unfold after they have found each other. Love is a double-edge sword, a force that can drive affection and hope, but it also can drive hate, rivalry, violence and death. In this story, love and violence are the main reasons why tragedy sets throughout the town of Verona.
Fate was to Blame William Shakespeare's “Romeo and Juliet” was a very dramatic play involving a relationship between rival households. The two star-crossed lovers were tragically separated which led to the death of them both. “My only love sprung from my only hate too early seen unknown and known too late” (1.5 138-139). Contrasting love and hate is very effective in portraying the theme and reasoning behind the conflict. The death of Romeo and Juliet is fate's end result.
Who is most to blame for the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet? One of the most common ways a person's downfall occurs is when they point their finger at others instead of looking at themselves. In William Shakespeare’s play, Romeo and Juliet, is about the famous story of the "star-crossed" young lovers Romeo and Juliet. The themes running through the play address the issues of the consequences of immature blind passion, hatred and prejudice.
Should Romeo and Juliet be held responsible for their impulsive behavior? Romeo and Juliet were young and in love and got married within less than a day of knowing each other and then ended up committing suicide. I think that Romeo and Juliet should take some of the blame; still I also think that there are other reasons. I believe that Friar Lawrence should take some of the blame for the death of Romeo and Juliet.
Romeo and Juliet may seem like a romantic novel; however, that is not the case. Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy about a pair of star crossed lovers who go through many painful obstacles only to kill themselves at the end because of their love for one another. However, in the end, who is to blame for the death of these young children? The one who is liable for the pain and suffering that has been caused is Friar Lawrence. Friar Lawrence bears the most guilt for the fate of the characters in Romeo and Juliet.
Romeo and Juliet died tragically and unnecessarily. Many characters in the book bear responsibility for their deaths in part, including the Friar and even Romeo and Juliet themselves. However; their parents and in particular, Juliet's parents, bear the brunt of the blame for keeping the feud alive. The parents were a product of their upbringing and environment, and the times in which they lived.
In Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare, the love between Romeo and Juliet is the main feature of the play. While the love acts as the comic potential between the two characters, it is also the force that steers the star crossed lovers towards the tragic ending. One key factor that plays a role in the use love to steer the play towards tragedy is the theme of religion. Because religion plays an important role in the play by sacrilegiously using, sin as a metaphor for their first kiss, having Romeo abandon Rosaline, and Juliet for leave her fiance for Romeo, Romeo and Juliet's relationship is doomed to end in tragedy. One of the key representations of religion in Romeo and Juliet, is the character of Friar Lawrence.

Julie Arellano Remembered as ‘One of our Best’
Skyline Vista teacher Julie Arellano is being remembered as a person who lit up the room with her smile and an educator, “with the patience of a saint.”
Her funeral was held this past Saturday in Littleton where family, friends and District 50 co-workers turned out to say goodbye. Julie, who was just 54, died on January 2nd after being diagnosed with advanced cancer earlier in the school year.
Her daughter had asked people to wear bright colors to her funeral because that is how she dressed. Her friends did just that, participating in an uplifting ceremony that celebrated her life.
“We lost one finest teachers and more importantly a wonderful woman, wife, mother, new grandmother and good friend,” said Maureen Wille from Hodgkins Elementary.
Born in Houston, Texas, Julie was entering her 30th year in District 50, working the second half of her career as a reading interventionist. She planned to retire at the end of the school year. Over the years, she taught at Clear Lake Middle School, Berkeley Gardens, Tennyson Knolls and Skyline Vista Elementary schools.
She is survived by her husband, Louis and two daughters, Karissa and Brittanie.
“Julie was easy to smile. She loved a bit of gossip, sarcasm or a joke. She was usually the first to laugh,” said Amy Bohen, a fellow teacher at Skyline Vista. ”She loved a long lunch with good friends and when she couldn't go out to lunch, many of our staff would gather in her room to eat. She drew people to her.”
Her death was felt across the District. On Friday, the staff from Hodgkins Elementary provided breakfast and lunch to the Skyline Vista staff. Susan Blatter, Maureen Wille and other staffers who worked with Julie over the years wanted to lend their support to her co-workers.
Sherrelwood Elementary Principal Cindy Davis, called her, “a dear friend who was cherished by many in the District.”
Veronica Gleaton, who is now Executive Assistant to the Board of Education worked with Julie and Skyline Vista. “She was always very cheery. Loved kids and had a passion for all of our students.”
You can read the eulogy prepared by the staff at Skyline Vista here.
An Educational Memorial Fund has been set up for Julie’s Grandchildren. Contributions can be sent to:

BMW called the MINI-E lessees "Pioneers". I didn't really like it at first, kind of found it to be a bit hokey, but after living with the car for a while, dealing with its issues, re-learning everything I knew about how to live with, refuel and drive an automobile, I warmed up to the Pioneer name and eventually embraced it. Just as I got used to the Pioneer thing, the MINI-E program ended. Now that I'm driving the ActiveE, the next step in BMW e-mobility, BMW has decided to call the drivers "Electronauts". Again, I'm finding it a bit hard to embrace and maybe in time I will, just as I did before. Some people in the program have referred to the ActiveE lessees as the "700 Club". Not because we are affiliated with any particular religious group that uses that name, but because there will be 700 ActiveEs leased here in the US. I figured with all these names being thrown around, I'll throw one out there too, the "99%ers".
Now before anyone thinks I'm connecting the ActiveE to the Tea Party or the people that have been occupying areas all over the country, I'm not. I'm calling us the 99%ers because it seems the car won't charge past 99%! Every day when I start my journey, the car begins not at 100%, but at 99% and sometimes even at 98%. I have talked to others driving the ActiveE and they have said they are experiencing the same thing. At first I thought it had something to do with preconditioning the car but that's not the case. Now that it's warmed up a little, I haven't been using the preconditioning and I still get the same thing. Occasionally when it finishes charging, I will see it momentarily hit 100%, but before I can even roll one foot forward it drops to 99%. I'm sure this is some kind of software program that prevents the car from over charging and it just needs to be tweaked a bit to allow just a bit more charging before it shuts off the charger.
It may seem like a trivial thing, but it's really not. On days that I need to push the limits of the car I like to start out the day driving as conservatively as possible, saving every ounce of energy and preserving the state of charge from needlessly dropping faster than it has to. With the MINI-E, I used to see how far I could drive from my house before the SOC dropped to 99%, Some days I could make it nearly two miles if I really feathered the accelerator. It was a little game I played and I enjoyed it. With the ActiveE, I'm not out of the garage and it's 99% and sometimes I don't get out of my 350' long driveway before it's at 98%. It's not that the car isn't efficient, because I'm getting at least as good a range as I did with the MINI-E, and maybe better. It's that the car just doesn't allow itself to be completely 100% charged.
I know I'm nitpicking here. But seriously, the ActiveE is such a great EV I need to nitpick to come up with things that BMW needs to work on and refine for the i3 and this is one of them. The purpose of this program is to fully vet the components and software so the i3 is rock solid. So here's one for the BMW engineers/code writers to get to work on. I want the car to charge fully to 100% every time!
Until then, we are the 99%!

Roberto Firmino has scored just once for Liverpool all season
Roberto Firmino must get used to playing without his "mate" Philippe Coutinho, claims former Liverpool ace John Aldridge.
Firmino, 24, produced a poor display in the Reds' 2-0 defeat at Newcastle on Sunday.
Fellow Brazilian Coutinho was absent through injury, leaving Firmino struggling to link up with centre-forward Christian Benteke.
But Aldridge claims the former Hoffenheim star didn't work hard enough and relies too much on Coutinho's service.
“Roberto Firmino is playing as if something is wrong, mentally and physically. He’s been absolutely redundant the last two games after such a great display at Man City,” Aldridge told the Liverpool Echo.
“It can’t just be the fact his mate Coutinho has been missing.
“Christian Benteke played badly – he was stood outside the box when two good crosses came in, one from Moreno – but it was Firmino who made him look worse. Everything Benteke needed from him was absent in a horrible display.
“He needed him to be the link man but he wasn’t there. Benteke won his flick-ons but he was nowhere near him."
Liverpool's loss at Newcastle put a downer on talk that they are genuine title challengers this season.
The Reds have been in fine form in recent weeks, convincingly defeating Chelsea, Manchester City and Southampton.
"We have only been working with (Klopp) a short time, barely two months, and we have already had some good results with him," Lovren told the official Liverpool FC magazine.
"With time it will be better. With his methods and his way of working, I don't see how it cannot be better.
"We will know him more and he will know us more and he will also have a better understanding of the league and the club.
"He knows the expectations at Liverpool. Everyone knows it is a tough job, but we are here to do that job."
Meanwhile, Manchester United should be worried about Klopp, claims former Red Devils manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
Klopp suffered only his second defeat since taking over at Liverpool at St James' Park.
The result halted Liverpool's charge up the Premier League table but they remain just six points off fourth-place United.
And Ferguson admits United's rivals have a manager in charge capable of bringing Champions League football back to Merseyside.
“I’m worried about him – the one thing United don’t want is to have Liverpool above us," Ferguson said at a TechCrunch event in London.
Sir Alex Ferguson's (right) Manchester United earned a number of famous wins at Anfield
“He’s got a fantastic personality, he’s got that great confidence in himself. Even I noticed in yesterday’s game when they lost the second goal he went across to Steve McClaren and congratulated him – it’s class that, it’s class.
“He’s got a great personality, his big white teeth are always showing, he’s enjoying it. The work he did at Dortmund – I know him quite well actually from the coaching seminars we have, I got a text from him the other day actually.
“He’s going to make a difference at that club, absolutely no doubt about it. He’s got the personality, he’s got the drive, he’s got the knowledge, he’s got great presence about him, I think things will look up there, no doubt about it.”
Leicester's Ben Chilwell (left) has made three appearances on loan at Huddersfield
In transfer news, Klopp is understood to have sent scouts to watch Leicester's Ben Chilwell while on loan at Huddersfield Town.
The Telegraph claim Chilwell has also been tracked by Arsenal but Klopp's friendship with Huddersfield manager David Wagner could help his efforts to sign the player.
Chilwell, 18, has made three appearances for the Terriers this season, having risen through the youth ranks at Leicester.
Arsenal reportedly had scouts at Huddersfield's 2-0 win over Birmingham on Saturday, in which defender Chilwell played 90 minutes.

Myasthenia Gravis Study (H-28126)
Myasthenia gravis is a chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disease characterized by varying degrees of weakness of the skeletal (voluntary) muscles. MG is caused by a defect in the transmission of nerve impulses to muscles. It occurs when normal communication between the nerve and muscle is interrupted at the neuromuscular junction, which is the place where nerve cells connect with the muscles they control. The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness and safety of an experimental drug. This investigational drug may partially improve muscle strength in patients with MG.

Active Protection is an advanced solution consisting of countermeasures that can intercept incoming rocket-propelled grenades, anti-tank missiles, and other threats to increase crew and vehicle survivability.
BAE Systems, the manufacturer of the Dutch CV9035 variant vehicles, will lead the APS integration. BAE Systems will also carry out the future installation of the system, called Iron Fist, developed by Israeli supplier IMI Systems. Iron Fist is an automated system that uses a radar to detect and track threats and then takes action to eliminate the threat.
“Iron Fist will give the Dutch Army a highly sophisticated defensive tool on its CV90s to counter threats and improve the safety of the vehicle and its crew,” said Tommy Gustafsson-Rask, managing director of Sweden-based BAE Systems Hägglunds. “Iron Fist is yet another example of the advanced technology BAE Systems and its partners can deliver to our customers.”
The integration of this advanced APS solution onto the Dutch CV90s demonstrates the vehicle’s adaptability to new and evolving technologies to meet customer-specific requirements.
“During this test phase we will pre-qualify the active system against our threat specification, and together with our partners analyze system safety and prepare for its integration onto our CV9035NL vehicles,” said Hans de Goeij, project manager at the Netherlands Defence Materiel Organisation, Ministry of Defence. “We expect to make a decision on the next phase by early 2018. With Iron Fist, the Netherlands is expected to become the first NATO country with an Active Protection System of its kind on combat vehicles.”

Here is a brief biography of Amra Nor Jenkins. The biography contains details about her age, young life, and schooling. It also contains information about her net worth, family relationships, and career.
Amra Nor Jenkins is a young girl who was born to Jay Wayne Jenkins and Mahlet Mahi Gebremedhin in 2014.
Jay Wayne Jenkins is a popular American rapper known as Young Jeezy, his stage name. Mahlet Mahi Gebremedhin is a singer who originally came from Ethiopia. Her stage name is Mahi.
The romantic relationship between Young Jeezy and Mahi started in 2010 when they met online. However, the two are no longer staying together currently. Young Jeezy and Mahi split up after a brief engagement in 2016. Young Jeezy agreed to pay $37,500 monthly for the living expenses of Amra.
The child support amount that Young Jeezy pays is supposed to cover Amra’s schooling and general living expenses. Amra has three other half-siblings: Shyheim, Monaco, and Jadarius. It is said that Jadarius and Shyheim share a mother; an unnamed woman with whom Young Jeezy was involved before he met the mother of Amra.
No one knows the net worth of Amra Nor Jenkins. Currently, the celebrity child is about ten years old. Thus, the lavish lifestyle that she enjoys is a courtesy of the massive wealth of his father.
Young Jeezy still supports her even after he and her mother separated. The renowned rapper is still wealthy with an estimated net worth of $10 million. He made a fortune between the early and mid-2000s. The mother is also reasonably wealthy, thanks to her singing career.
Age, Birthday, Height, and Weight
Amra Nor Jenkins’s birthday was on 27th February 2014 in the USA. She is currently about ten years old. The name ‘Jenkins’ comes from the family of her father. Young Jeezy’s father was called Jenkins; however, his first name is unknown. Young Jeezy’s mother was called Sharon Denise Jenkins. She died in 2021.
She is an American national of black ethnicity, just like her parents. Not only that, but she is also presumed to share the religious affiliation of her parents, who practice Christianity.
Information about her current height and weight is not publicly available. However, one can presume that she is of the height and age of an average ten-year-old girl. She is currently living with her mother, Mahi, after a prolonged court case about her custody. Her father pays for her support and tuition.
The early life of Amra Nor Jenkins was shaped by the events in her parents’ lives. She was born when the relationship between her half-brother Jadarius, and her father had broken down. Young Jeezy got into a serious fight with his son in 2012. He was promptly arrested after he threatened to kill him.
Amra was barely six years old when her parents split up after a brief engagement. Her father went ahead to get engaged to another woman: Jeannie Mai. The two eventually married and sired a girl whom they named Monaco Mai Jenkins.
The parents also engaged in a protracted court battle for her custody in 2019. The case received huge coverage in the local and international media. Eventually, Young Jeezy agreed to pay for her tuition and support.
Mahi and Young Jeezy have consistently protected Amra from the public. The public only gets to learn about her life from the posts on her parents’ social media platforms.
Amra Nor Jenkins does not have a career presently because she is still in school. Interestingly, her biological parents and paternal mother have careers in the music industry. Her father is said to have developed an interest in rap music while still a kid. He later moved to Macon, Georgia where he met members of the Crip gang. He would release his first album in 2001.
Her mother, Mahi is also a reputed singer. She started her singing career at a tender age. Mai, Amra’s current foster mother, is a renowned producer in the music industry.
Jadarius Jenkins, her elder half-brother, has also developed a career in music. He is currently working as a rapper and fashion designer. The career interest of Shyheim Jenkins, the second half-brother, is also not publicly known.
Records about Amra’s schooling are not publicly available. However, little Amra attends school because her father pays for her tuition as part of the out-of-court settlement he and the mother had in 2019.
Furthermore, the $30,000 for tuition is enough to keep her in some of the most expensive schools. The conflict between her parents about the terms of the settlement did not affect her schooling. Her mother sued Young Jeezy for failing to remit the monthly support money and not purchasing her a car as the two had agreed earlier.
Young Jeezy argued that he had never failed to pay for the tuition and support of his daughter. However, he argued that Mahi had anger problems and was evidently jealous of his relationship with Mai.
Amra enjoys cordial relationships with all her immediate family members. She is said to be in good terms with her foster mother, Jeannie Mahi. Also, Amra has good relationships with her half-siblings. Jadarius, who is now in his mid-twenties, is presumed to have a good relationship with his younger half-sister. Similarly, Amra is in good terms with his other half-brother, Shyheim. The relationship between Amra and Monaco is unknown because the younger half-sister is only about a year old.
Amra Nor Jenkins does not have accounts on any social media platforms. However, her father regularly posts her photos on his social media pages, particularly on Instagram.
Young Jeezy started this practice when Amra was a year old. He posted photos of himself with the then-one-year-old Amra as part of her first birthday celebrations. Many individuals who commented on the photos lauded Young Jeezy for spending quality time with her daughter.
However, a cursory look at the Instagram page of Young Jeezy shows that he has recently been avoiding posting photos of his kids on the platform.

With Covid-19 restrictions likely to remain in place for weeks or even months to come, Riello UPS business development manager Chris Cutler explains why remote UPS monitoring remains more important than ever.
For many businesses, 2020 marked what is likely to become a permanent shift from analogue to digital, with the cloud becoming the key tool in keeping teams connected.
Data centre operators have demonstrated incredible adaptability and resilience meeting this rising demand during the coronavirus crisis, as companies and communities have become increasingly reliant on online solutions in both their professional and personal lives. The sector has had to do all this while coping with reduced staffing levels, complying with ever-changing government guidance, and committing to making their facilities Covid-secure.
It’s likely that restricted site access, social distancing, and other safety precautions are here to stay, in the short-to-medium term at the very least.
Limited physical access to sites makes the ability to remotely monitor crucial infrastructure and equipment almost priceless. For the essential UPS systems safeguarding data centres from damaging downtime, cloud-based remote monitoring provides the equivalent protection of having a ‘virtual’ power engineer onsite round the clock keeping watch of your ultimate insurance policy.
UPS monitoring: The basics
The most basic form of monitoring is based on voltage-free (also known as dry) contacts in the guise of a set of terminals on the UPS or fitted using a slot-in accessory card. It provides binary ‘true/not true’ information to simple statements. In terms of a UPS, that could be ‘is there a mains failure?’ or ‘is the UPS running on battery?’.
Whilst this may suffice for a small office or workshop, mission-critical settings like a data centre calls for a far more sophisticated network-based approach, either locally using ethernet connections or over the internet.
The first method incorporates an RS-232 connection to provide single-ended signalling, a relatively simple yet resilient approach. Then there’s Modbus, the open protocol that’s become the most common way of connecting industrial electronic devices. It enables serial communication from a single RS-232 or RS-485 connector and allows for the creation of a hierarchy on the network.
Similarly, there’s Profibus, a faster version of Modbus, which is increasingly used to monitor automation technology.
The final option is ideal for advanced data centre UPS monitoring. You can equip your UPS systems with Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) capabilities. In layman’s terms, this allows you to monitor and even control the UPS remotely from a central location.
How does this work in practice? Each UPS on your network gets fitted with an adapter that connects it to management software. This means the UPS can ‘talk’ (send information and transmit data) and ‘listen’ (receive external commands). So, in the case of the former, it would be something like an alarm triggering a fault message. While the latter would be initiating system shutdown scripts when a power failure occurs.
Round the clock protection
A cloud-based SNMP remote monitoring service links into a remote service centre manned 24/7 by highly trained technical engineers. All communications between the UPSs on your network and the service centre are SSL encrypted for security.
Most uninterruptible power supplies these days will perform a range of automated tests every 24 hours, while the service centre also remotely polls the UPS at regular intervals (i.e. daily or weekly). If there’s a significant change to the operating conditions, for example a mains power failure, overload, or a fault with the UPS itself, alarms will trigger immediately.
When this happens, the remote monitoring software automatically sends email or SMS notifications to key personnel and first responders, as well as alerting the service centre so engineers can carry out further remote diagnostics and drill deeper into the problem.
If needs be, the service centre arranges for field engineers to attend site armed with the correct parts to fix the issue. And with the most serious faults, they can initiate emergency shutdown scripts for all connected devices.
Under normal day-to-day operating conditions, the service centre and data centre staff can interrogate historical alarm logs and statuses to produce informative performance reports.
Remote monitoring rewards
For data centre operators, remote monitoring of their uninterruptible power supplies is a no-brainer as it reduces the risk of them suffering a failure that could lead to damaging service downtime.
The first benefit is obvious. If something goes wrong with your UPS, you know about it immediately thanks to the automated notifications that trigger when there’s a fault. You aren’t left waiting for onsite staff to see or hear the alarm.
Just think if something goes wrong outside of normal working hours or at an unmanned location – how long will it take for someone to physically notice the issue? Remote monitoring enables you – and your service centre – to quickly spring into action and get the fault fixed.
This leads to the second advantage. You’re aware there’s an alarm, but what’s really gone wrong? By remotely interrogating the UPS, engineers in the service centre can analyse valuable information that allows them to make an informed diagnosis of the problem. In turn, the engineer attending site to conduct repairs has the information – and necessary spare parts – to give them the optimum chance of a speedy first-time fix.
Of course, preventing faults in the first place is far better than the cure of having to fix them. And remote UPS monitoring helps data centre operators detect – and solve – many issues before they have the chance to grow into something more serious.
Say the UPS alarms during an automated battery test, and further investigation suggests a weakening block of batteries is the reason. Promptly replacing those batteries ensures the entire set won’t fail, eliminating the chance of a potentially catastrophic outcome.
Cloud-based remote monitoring minimises the number of onsite service visits you’ll need, reducing your maintenance costs, while it also allows staff to carry out many of their key day-to-day duties from the safety of their own home, without having to physically attend site.
There’s one final positive to consider. One that proves remote monitoring shouldn’t just be seen as an additional insurance policy to mitigate against something going wrong. It can actually boost day-to-day performance and improve operational efficiency too.
How so? During ‘normal’ conditions, you can build up an insight into the UPS’s performance over time by interrogating its historical alarm and status logs. Now if you’re a big data centre with lots of UPS systems on the same network, that’s a huge amount of valuable information to examine. Crunching the data can help you to optimise load management and identify other areas for improvement.
In increasingly uncertain times, remote UPS monitoring offers data centre operators the reassurance that they’ve always got a ‘virtual’ power engineer onsite 24 hours a day making sure their essential standby power systems are in full working order.


As cyber attacks become more complex, a lively debate has emerged on the best defense strategies
A 2013 scheme by Russian state actors compromised data from more than 3 billion Yahoo user accounts. In 2014, the Sony Pictures hack brought the studio — and several of Hollywood’s most powerful players — to their knees. Now, word comes that South Korean agencies charged with running the 2018 Winter Olympics were subject to an organized cyber attack that installed four different kinds of malware on target computers and stole data from their networks.
The takeaway: If even massive organizations with plenty of digital resources can be successfully invaded, what hope is there for smaller businesses? While most decision makers are now all too familiar with the importance of dedicating funding to their organization’s cyber defenses, they continually wrestle with difficult choices on how to deploy a successful strategy.
The question of how best to allocate limited funds to safeguard digital assets has sparked a healthy debate among cybersecurity specialists. Given the evolving complexity of hackers’ attempts to breach networks, some experts say the smartest use of cyber budgets is to expect and prepare for network intrusions with a focus on minimizing damage and recovering quickly. Other pros say a greater emphasis on attack-prevention research and spending to protect operations could cut cybercriminals’ success rates significantly.
“Most likely, someone’s already on your network”
“Hackers can get on to your network,” says HP Print Security Advisor Jason O’Keeffe, an expert on network vulnerabilities and hacking. “In a lot of cases, it’s a no-brainer for them — despite the best-laid defensive plans. When I tell a customer, ‘Most likely, someone’s already on your network, you just haven’t found them yet’ they either start shouting ‘impossible,’ or they understand and accept it.”
Jonathan Griffin, a senior security researcher for HP Labs, agrees with O’Keeffe that it’s hard for anti-malware applications to keep up with rapidly changing threats and adversaries who are strongly motivated by money or national interests. As well as installing anti-malware protections, businesses also need to deploy monitoring tools to detect when malware has gotten past their defenses.
“Malware is always getting into our infrastructures,” Griffin explains. “The challenge is to build monitoring systems we can rely on to spot a potential outbreak early, but without generating too many false alarms.”
To deliver on that goal, software engineers are building systems powered by machine-learning algorithms that watch data streams moving across a network and those heading out to the internet for signs that an attack is starting or that malware is operating within the network and exfiltrating data from it. Other developers are designing programs that recognize when PCs and other network-connected devices have been compromised and automatically purge malware before it can wreak havoc.
Evolve with the threat
Such post-breach weapons are important, says Daniel Kalai, the founder of cybersecurity-as-a-service company Shieldly. But he believes manufacturers and information-security professionals can do more to prevent successful attacks. The problem, he argues, is that most prevention approaches offer a single answer when the complexity of attacks now requires a portfolio of prevention tools that evolve with the threat.
“When I go to cybersecurity conferences, I see hundreds of vendors selling point solutions — anti-viruses for viruses, for example,” Kalai says. “But home users and small and midsize businesses need a managed solution that automatically layers on new answers for new problems as they arise. They need a cybersecurity service offering, not a product offering.”
Kalai says many of the tools required for better protection already exist — they just need to be made easy and affordable enough for users and administrators to take advantage of them. If these solutions are implemented and maintained properly, along with two-factor authentication and an effective anti-malware app, Kalai says, potential attackers will move along to easier targets.
The No. 1 weapon every company needs now
Both sides of the debate say network monitoring is now a critical component of any cybersecurity program. HP Fellow and Chief Technologist Vali Ali says monitoring is so important because it provides machines and networks with intelligence to understand if they’re clean or compromised by an attack.
Active monitoring is part of a more holistic cybersecurity approach Ali calls resiliency. It may just mean the difference between a catastrophic attack and one that can be navigated through as companies grapple with a landscape that is becoming ever more hostile and effective.
The idea of resiliency provides a layered security program that helps organizations survive attacks through deploying protective measures like managed anti-malware filters and diagnostic measures that watch for intruders. Such methods can minimize damage through insights that trigger a rapid response and recovery after a breach. They also create a feedback loop that enables intelligent shields to learn from past failures so they can avoid future events. “Survival means you have protection,” he says, “but you also realize that you’re going to be breached, no matter how strong your defenses are.”
Given the difficult reality of the modern threat environment, Ali has two questions for companies that want to ensure their survival: “Are you equipped to detect that you have been compromised? And are you equipped to recover at speed and at scale?”

Cold water and sanitary hot water
The challenges of energy
The energy costs are continuously increasing and are challenging company profitability. Over consumption, hot water production downtime and breakdowns all have one point in common: limescale
Water and energy bill
The variable of the energetic equation still remains the quality of the water feed. 3 mm of limescale between the heat exchange system and the water will result in a 30% increase in energy consumption. The quality of the feed water negatively affects the thermal exchange systems, as well as increasing the energy costs.
Controlling the expenses
Dropson guarantees energy savings. It avoids calcareous incrustation in the heat exchange elements and maintains peak and continuous performance of the installation. Dropson directly affects the energy consumption, ensuring the optimal conditions of thermal exchange between the primary and secondary circuits.
Minimize production stoppage
Dropson increases the service life of the different elements sensitive to limescale. Dropson limits maintenance costs, dismantling, and unforeseen repairs. It does not produce any kind of salt waste as those generated by traditional water softeners that assist the increase of corrosion in the installations.
Minimize the sanitary risks
Dropson avoids calcareous scale and dissolves existing lime deposits in the installation. This reduction of the lime deposits has a direct impact on the prevention of Legionnaire’s disease, as it gradually reduces its biotope.
Traditional water softeners require a thorough maintenance and regular disinfection of the resin tanks in order to avoid bacteria proliferation.
Dropson does not require sanitary maintenance, does not use any kind of resins and its treatment cell is 316L stainless steel, in compliance with foodgrade regulations.

Wagenbrenner Development Inc. is set to begin construction of its Jeffrey Park housing project in Italian Village after getting planning and zoning approvals from Columbus.
The development's $48 million first phase will consist of 276 apartments and 79 attached fee-simple houses.
“Earthwork begins this winter,” Mark Wagenbrenner told me, “with wholesale construction in the spring.”
The initial phase will include a 32,000-square-foot community center with nearly half of it devoted to a fitness center that will offer gym memberships to those living in the surrounding neighborhood. The community center will feature a pool and a public restaurant.
Wagenbrenner in May completed 108 apartments at the Harrison Park development in the Short North’s Harrison West neighborhood, marking the developer’s first major foray into urban residential projects.

I wake up. His body entangled into mine. My head is exploding with pain. I can still taste the whiskey. I remember the yelling and the crying from the night before.. But barely. I find my phone.. Screen shattered into microscopic pieces. It's 8 am–I go back to sleep.
He moved to get a sip of water. We embrace. But the mood is different. The morning light not shining quite like it did our first morning together. I can feel something is different. A lot of things happened the night before. He's probably over whelmed. Annoyed even. If he wasn't scared of me then he definitely thinks I'm crazy. We sleep.
Our phones both ringing in the background makes us shift. He starts to hold me tighter. Hands roaming. Exploring bodies that now feel familiar. He starts to kiss my neck. I press my body against his and I reach for him. These are my favorite types of mornings.
We kiss. We touch. I go down on him. I'm enjoying this. I'm prolonging it. I want him to be more forceful but he his gentle. Either he's not comfortable yet or it's just his nature. I want him to feel good. He touches my breast softly. He finishes and I climb up to his body to rest my head in the nook under his chin. I kiss his neck. He reaches down to the split of my legs and finds me. Unlike our first night together I let him touch me this time. With slow quiet moans–I express wanting to fuck him. He tells me he doesn't want to right now. He kisses my neck. I don't know how to feel. I fake finishing. We sleep.
It's noon now and I'm staring at his walls. They don't look as magical as they did a couple days ago. His room doesn't feel as welcoming. I feel like an intruder. He wakes up and asks if I want coffee. I can here him in the kitchen grinding the coffee beans.. He doesn't ask how I like my coffee–he brings it to me black. I ask for milk and he assumes I want sugar as well. He comes back in and we chat a bit. I can tell he wants to go outside to smoke so I tell him I won't think it's rude if he wants to go outside. I take that moment to gather my things and get dressed. I wash my face in the bathroom and try to make myself look decent. I look surprisingly refreshing.
He comes back in. We chat. He asks what my plans are for the day. To me this is saying.. When are are you leaving. We chat. We talk about families. We laugh a bit. Make little jokes. He's not trying to keep me here like last time. I'm texting a friend frantically to meet me at the Philz around the corner so I can leave and not wander around aimlessly. We go to the front porch. Somehow my boyfriend comes up again. I get up, we hug, and I leave. My ego wounded.
How was this so different? Did I fuck up? But I'm not the only who did. My feelings are crushed. I felt so differently about this person a week ago. I realize that if I'm going to be single and break up with my boyfriend this is what I'm going to have to deal with. I'd forgotten about the game. But I also thought he wasn't a participater of the game. His whole "thing" was about being genuine and honest and sincere. But he, in fact, is the same. I forgot that guys will be guys and people don't just meet amazingly interesting people by coincidence. I feel like Tom from 500 Days of Summer. I feel crushed.

5.6.2 Cistern-flush toilet
The cistern-flush toilet (Figure 5.17) also known as a water closet or WC, is usually made of ceramic material and consists of two parts: a bowl into which excreta are deposited and a tank (cistern) with volume of approximately 6-13 litres that supplies flush water for carrying away excreta. It needs a connection to constant running water for operation, and a discharge pipe to take the wastewater away to a sewer or septic tank. WCs are quite common in government offices, schools, hotels and health facilities. The attractive feature of the flush toilet is that it has a water seal to prevent odours from coming back up through the plumbing, but it is costly and requires a skilled plumber for installation.

Now, I’ve been sitting on this for a while now (that’s what she said! Whaddup!), and despite the 3 week delay I do really like this track from Blondfire, along with about 17000 other people it seems.
Blondfire are LA based brother and sister duo Bruce (a strong name) and Erica Driscoll who, if their press hot and single “Where The Kids Are” are anything to go by, combine the aesthetics of Oracular Spectacular MGMT with the sounds of The Naked And Famous, who have made one of my favourite albums of the year. So, it looks like they’re on to a winner!
“Where The Kids Are” is the first single from their forthcoming album Win The Game. Keep an eye out!
(SoundCloud doesn’t seem like it wants to embed so you’ll have to settle for a YouTube video, but if you’re not too lazy to click links and go to ANOTHER page, I know it’s difficult, you can listen HERE.)

True love isn’t easy to find, and it can not be located at every corner, but it is often closer than we think.
True love is wise and doesn’t want to be discovered quickly, because it knows that people would start to take it for granted and make it plain and ordinary as they did with a lot of other things. Humans are especially good at destroying things.
Every person who consider emotions vital to life (that would be most of us, I guess) are experiencing the same two fears that emerge in one period of our lives and disappear without a trace after some time: the fear we won’t be loved and the doubt that we won’t be able to love others.
This is the truth of all truths.
It’s not wrong that we want to love and someone to love us. Man is born from love, from the decision of two people to create a new life and the descendants with whom they will share the love.
All people have a strong desire to be tied to a particular person to share their life with.
It’s not easy to find love. Especially not the pure, primordial, burning and returning love that can rise like a phoenix, a hundred times over.
Maybe we sometimes want too much, and we are searching it with too much energy.
Perhaps it is sometimes enough to stop looking for love and love will find you first.
You may have lost yourself in your quest for true love: your dreams and goals have been shifted several times, and you are no longer following your dreams.
Perhaps the real love is in you, and through it, you will create something different from that emotional connection.
True love is perhaps what you now have, but you do not recognize it. Maybe your partner might be dying for you right now, and you do not realize it and you are blind to it.
Perhaps you are no longer the material for true love, because of the bitterness that pervades in your everyday life and which shouts to others: I do not need anybody …
Nevertheless, don’t forget! Never, but never lose yourself while looking for your true love.
How to find the right love, you wonder? Will your inner compass turn you to the right path or will you stay in the dark for a long time?
Don’t worry about it, because there is enough love in you to conquer the universe.


In honor of Opening Day, ESNY takes you through some New York Yankees facts about the first day of the season that you might not have known.Opening Day is special (not just to the New York Yankees) for an overabundance of reasons.
The best sport in the world gets underway, Summer is right around the corner and it’s time to start flocking to the stadium by the thousands to watch your favorite team play.
To start the 2017 season, Masahiro Tanaka will get the starting nod for the New York Yankees as they face off against Chris Archer and the Tampa Bay Rays. But, before we get into all the game-based breakdowns, we’re going to bring you through a little Opening Day history.
The always-wonderful Baseball Reference dedicates an entire page to the inauguration of the baseball season and after doing some digging, some pretty neat stuff regarding the Yankees came to surface.
So, sound smart with your friends during today’s contest and fill up on the seven Opening Day facts that you might not have known:
7. Better Luck In 2017
The Yankees are 1-2 against the Tampa Bay Rays in Opening Day history and both losses came at Tropicana Field — the first in 2004 and the second in 2012.
The Rays last hosted the Yankees on Friday, April 6, 2012, to kick off the baseball season in a game in which New York actually led 6-5 entering the bottom of the ninth.
After manager Joe Girardi handed the ball to his trusty closer Mariano Rivera, whose name translates to “game over,” Tampa rallied for two runs including a walk-off single by first baseman Carlos Pena.
Hopefully, for New York, this year’s opener goes a little differently but history tells us that might not be the case. The Yankees haven’t won on Opening Day on the road since 2006 when they defeated the Oakland Athletics 15-2. They have also lost seven of their last eight Opening Days with their last win coming on March 31, 2011, against the Detroit Tigers.
6. Three Starts Club
When Tanaka takes the hill for the Yankees in the bottom of the first, it will mark the righty’s third straight Opening Day start.
That will make him just the ninth starter in franchise history to start in three consecutive Opening Days. CC Sabathia, Roger Clemens, Jimmy Key, Ron Guidry, Mel Stottlemyre, Vic Raschi, Red Ruffing and Lefty Gomez were the other eight to do so.
The 28-year-old is 0-2 with a 5.87 ERA in his two starts on baseball’s first day, but hopefully, he can change the narrative against a team that failed to beat him in 2016.
5. Big Toe
Thanks to the shoulder injury to Didi Gregorius, Ronald Torreyes will be the fourth different Opening Day shortstop since 2013. Gregorius (2015-16), Derek Jeter (2014) and Eduardo Nunez (2013) all started at the position for New York in that same time frame.
Torreyes spent the entire 2016 season with the Yankees and went 40-for-155 (.258) with a .680 OPS in 79 games. From Aug. 19 to Sep. 20, he slashed .367/.415/.551 and gave third baseman Chase Headley a run for his money.
He’s no Didi, but he is the fourth different Opening Day shortstop since 2013 and is ready to make his presence felt.
4. Man, He’s Been Here A While
The 33-year-old did not start the first game of last season, but has started in seven of the last eight Opening Days with five starts in left and two starts in center.
3. Speaking Of Left Field…
Out of all the positions on the diamond, left field has seen 52 different Bronx Bombers take the field on Opening Day. That’s the highest variety of players at a position for the Yankees while catcher and first base are tied for the least (33 different players).
2. The All-Time Opening Day Lineup
If you constructed a Yankees lineup featuring the players with the most Opening Day starts at each position, it would like this:
- Bill Dickey, C
- Lou Gehrig, 1B
- Willie Randolph, 2B
- Graig Nettles, 3B
- Derek Jeter, SS
- Roy White, LF
- Mickey Mantle, CF
- Hank Bauer, RF
- Mel Stottlemyre, SP
- Don Baylor, DH
The 2017 Yankees will obviously look a little different, but it’s always fun to look at a “fantasy” Yankees team and the All-Time Opening Day squad looks as if it could take home a World Series title or two…
1. Two Homers, Anyone?
Roger Maris (1960), Mickey Mantle (1956), Russ Derry (1945), and Babe Ruth and Samue Byrd (1932) were the only others to ever accomplish the feat. With a lineup that features the man who led spring training in home runs (Greg Bird), hopefully, 2017 will quench the thirst caused by the multi-home run drought.
Well, there you have it, folks. Now get to the bar and show off to the bartender. Write up a script of these facts before you go to the neighbor’s house so you have the smarter brain. Whatever you’re going to use these facts for: the more you know, the better.

Can You Bake a Cake in a Toaster Oven?
We all love cake, right? And who doesn’t love a good toaster oven?
So, can you bake a cake in a toaster oven? The answer is yes! You can totally bake a cake in a toaster oven.
In fact, baking a cake in a toaster oven is pretty similar to baking one in a regular oven. The main difference is that you’ll need to keep an eye on your cake while it’s baking since toaster ovens can heat up quickly and cook food faster than regular ovens. Here are some tips for baking a cake in your trusty toaster oven:
– Preheat the toaster oven before getting started on your cake batter. This will help ensure that your cake cooks evenly. – Use an aluminium foil or silicone baking pan when making your cake.
These materials will help prevent the bottom of your cake from burning. If you don’t have either of these materials, you can use a regular baking pan lined with parchment paper. – Make sure the rack in your toaster oven is positioned in the middle so that heat circulates evenly around the pan while the cake bakes.
– Check on your cake regularly while it’s baking and rotate the pan if necessary (most likely won’t be necessary with such small cakes). – When inserting and removing pans from the hot toasteroven, use caution as the interior surfaces will be very hot! Use an oven mitt or pot holder when handling hot pans.
And there you have it! Baking cakes in atoasteroven is possible and not too difficult at all. Just rememberto keep an eye on things so that everything turns out perfect!
Is Baking in a Toaster Oven the Same As a Regular Oven?
Baking in a toaster oven is not the same as a regular oven. While toaster ovens can be used for some basic tasks like reheating and defrosting, they are not designed for complex cooking tasks like baking. This is because toaster ovens cook food using radiant heat, which means that the heat source is directed at the food from all sides.
This type of heating can cause uneven cooking, so it’s best to stick to simpler tasks when using a toaster oven.
Can I Use Oven Toaster for Baking Cookies?
If you’re wondering whether you can use an oven toaster for baking cookies, the answer is yes! However, there are a few things to keep in mind. First of all, oven toasters typically have smaller capacities than regular ovens, so you’ll want to adjust your recipe accordingly.
Additionally, the heating elements in an oven toaster are located on the top and bottom of the unit, so it’s important to rotate your cookie sheet halfway through baking to ensure even cooking. Finally, be sure to keep a close eye on your cookies while they’re in the oven toaster, as they may bake more quickly than you expect. But if you follow these tips, you’ll be able to enjoy freshly-baked cookies made in your oven toaster with no problem!
What Can You Not Bake in a Toaster Oven?
You can’t bake in a toaster oven because it doesn’t generate enough heat. A toaster oven is designed to toast bread and other food items, not to bake them. Baking requires a consistent, high temperature that a toaster oven can’t provide.
So if you’re looking to bake cookies or a cake, stick to using your regular oven.
Can I Use Oven Toaster for Baking Cupcakes?
If you’re in a pinch and don’t have a conventional oven to bake your cupcakes, you can use an oven toaster. Just be sure to adjust the cooking time and temperature accordingly. Here’s what you need to know about using an oven toaster for baking cupcakes:
The first thing you need to do is lower the temperature by 25 degrees Fahrenheit from what the recipe calls for. This is because oven toasters tend to cook food faster than regular ovens. So, if your recipe calls for the cupcakes to be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit, you’ll want to set the oven toaster to 325 degrees Fahrenheit instead.
As far as cooking time goes, start checking on your cupcakes after they’ve been in the oven for about 10 minutes less than the recipe states. Again, this is because food cooked in an oven tends to cook faster than food cooked in a regular oven. So, if your recipe says that the cupcakes should be cooked for 20 minutes, start checking on them after they’ve been in theoven for 10 minutes.
When it comes timeto takethe cupcakes out ofthe ovento checkon them, use acareful hand so thatyou don’t jostle themtoo much and cause themto sinkin the middle.
Can Oven Toaster Bake? The answer is yes! An oven toaster can actually be used for baking.
This type of appliance is usually smaller and more compact than a regular oven, which makes it perfect for smaller spaces. It also uses less energy than a regular oven, so it’s good for the environment. And, because it’s smaller, it heats up faster so you can start baking sooner.

EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: Harry and Meghan take one of William and Kate's most treasured aides one month after they quit the Cambridges Royal Foundation to make their own
- Harry and Meghan are quitting Royal Foundation shared with William and Kate
- The Sussexes are taking distinguished director Natalie Campbell with them
- She is said to have grown close to Meghan when working on Grenfell cookbook
It was announced last month that Harry and Meghan would be quitting the Royal Foundation they share with William and Kate.
And I can reveal the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will be taking one of the Royal Foundation’s most distinguished directors with them to run their new power base.
Natalie Campbell, right with the Duchess of Cambridge, was a director at the Royal Foundation
Last month it was announced Harry and Meghan would be quitting the Royal Foundation they share with William and Kate. It has now been revealed they are taking Ms Campbell with them
She is Natalie Campbell, an award-winning ‘social entrepreneur’ who is the Royal Foundation’s ‘director of insight and innovation’.
‘Natalie will be a real loss to William and Catherine,’ a courtier tells me. ‘She has done brilliantly for the Royal Foundation and formed a bond with Meghan when she worked with her on the cookbook for survivors of the Grenfell fire.
'Her loss will be keenly felt by the Cambridges.’ Harry and Meghan lost no time in establishing their own charitable organisation.
I can disclose that its name, The Foundation of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, was trademarked the very next day after the announcement of the split.
Ms Campbell, right, was said to have 'formed a bond with Meghan when she worked with her on the cookbook for survivors of the Grenfell fire'
Their spokesman confirmed Natalie’s appointment and added: ‘A full board and trustees will be appointed in due course.’
A sign of the tensions ahead came this week when Harry and Meghan used their new Instagram account to publicise 15 environmental causes to their 8.8 million followers, with no mention of William’s charity, United For Wildlife.
‘It was unbelievable,’ one of Wills and Kate’s friends tells me. ‘Harry knows how passionate William is about the charity, it was a real snub.’
Kensington Palace sources insist William was not left ‘disappointed’ by the omission. Such magnanimity will be needed in months to come.
'Driving ban' Prince gets by with a little help from his friends
Prince Philip, who surrendered his driving licence after his car crash in January, has an elegant new ‘chauffeur’.
The Duke of Edinburgh’s old friend, the Countess Mountbatten of Burma, was spotted driving him around the Queen’s private Sandringham estate in Norfolk in a Land Rover Freelander.
Penny, 66, is more often seen sitting alongside the 98-year-old Duke in horse-drawn carriages.
The Queen arrived yesterday at Sandringham, where her husband is now based at the estate’s Wood Farm, so no doubt she took a firm grip of the steering wheel.

What Causes Epilepsy?
There are many different causes of Epilepsy. Your doctor will do a number of investigations to look for the cause. However, in 6 out of 10 children, no cause can be found.
The cause of Epilepsy when known can be classified into several broad categories.
- Genetic: There is an underlying predisposition to having seizures. However, there is often no family history of seizures
- Immune: Epilepsy results directly from an immune disorder in which seizures are a core symptom of the disorder
- Infectious: Epilepsy results from a known infection in which seizures are a core symptom of the disorder
- Metabolic: The cells in the brain use energy in a way that makes them more prone to creating abnormal electrical activity
- Structural: There is an underlying abnormality in the brain tissue that makes seizures more likely
- Unknown: The cause of the epilepsy is not yet known.

Mervyns to close its doors after holiday sales
Retail chain plans to liquidate inventory with going-out-of-business sales during holidays
Mervyns, the 59-year-old department store chain based in Hayward, is closing up shop.
The ailing retailer, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in July and planned to close 26 stores, said Friday that it now plans to liquidate its remaining 149 locations and shutter the business after the holiday season.
"We are disappointed with this outcome but the company's declining liquidity position and the extremely challenging retail environment, together with the fact that we have exhausted all other possibilities, requires that we take this action," said John Goodman, Mervyns' chief executive, in a statement.
Mervyns plans to hire an outside liquidator to hold going-out-of-business sales during the holidays. The company said it determined liquidating its inventory was the best way to maximize value for its creditors. Company officials declined to comment beyond the press release.
Mervyns, a privately held company that operates 175 stores in seven states, is the latest in a string of retailers to go belly up or file for bankruptcy reorganization in the wake of the severe credit crunch and overall dismal economy.
MBA BY THE BAY: See how an MBA could change your life with SFGATE's interactive directory of Bay Area programs.
Earlier this week, Linens 'N Things backed out of restructuring plans that included some store closures and decided to shut its remaining 371 stores. Other well-known retailers to file for bankruptcy include Shoe Pavilion Inc., Sharper Image Inc. and Steve & Barry's.
Consumer spending, an early barometer of the economy, is down as shoppers cut discretionary spending amid fears of economic woes. The U.S. Commerce Department last week said September retail sales dropped 1.2 percent, the largest monthly decline in three years.
To make matters worse, retail watchers predict this holiday season will be the worst in recent years.
The National Retail Federation on Thursday released a survey that predicts the lowest increase in consumer spending since 2002. And, for the first time, survey participants said they would spend less on gifts for family members than the previous year.
Mervyns' bankruptcy did not surprise retail consultants, who have commented for years that the store has lost its footing.
Mervyns' customer base has been especially hard hit by the housing meltdown and high gas prices. The store's customers are typically low- to middle-income shoppers who live in areas especially hard hit by foreclosures such as California's Central Valley.
The department-store chain continued to lose ground against competitors such as Target, Wal-Mart and Kohl's, stores that managed to offer similar merchandise but with greater consumer appeal.
"They couldn't differentiate themselves from any of their competition," said Harry Bernard of Colton Bernard Inc., a San Francisco retail consultancy. "If you took away the element of price, the product Mervyns has ben selling could be found anywhere."
Mervyns was owned by Target Corp., for the most part under Target's previous incarnation as Dayton Hudson Corp., until 2004, when it was sold to a group of investors including Cerberus Capital Management and Sun Capital Partners. Mervyns pared down its number of stores and pulled out of several markets in an effort to improve profitability. Cerberus sold out of the chain last year but retains some interest in the company's real estate.
On July 29, Mervyns filed for Chapter 11. The company at that time said it had a commitment for a $465 million debtor-in-possession loan from a lender group led by Wachovia Capital Finance Corp. The company expected to use that money to fund ongoing operations.
As part of its reorganization plans, Mervyns said it would close 26 stores, 11 of which were in California, and keep operating as a smaller chain. Trendy retailer Forever 21 Inc. has reportedly expressed interested in the remaining 149 stores, but the company did not return calls for comment Friday.
"The real estate has a tremendous amount of value," said Helen Bulwik of New Market Solutions, an Oakland retail consultancy. "For the right retailer, those locations are quite enticing because Mervyns was a major force in California. That's where 80 to 90 percent of their stores were."
Bob Carbonell, chief credit officer at Bernard Sands, a credit monitoring and rating firm, said the holiday close-out sales mean creditors will at least be able to get paid through the holidays, but at steeply discounted rates.
"From a vendor point of view, it's disappointing because vendors lose another outlet for their merchandise," he said. "For employees, it's a horrible time of year to face losing their jobs in an already difficult California economy. It's always a sad day when we lose a major retailer."
Mervyns Through the Years
-- Mervin Morris opened the first Mervyns (spelling of his name was changed) store in San Lorenzo in July 1949. The store measured 2,800 square feet and had two full-time workers and a few part-time employees.
-- The company grew through the decades, even as competition with Macy's, J.C. Penney and other retailers mounted.
-- In April 1971, Mervyns went public with a stock sale of 300,000 shares.
-- Mervyns in 1978 merged with Dayton Hudson Corp. in Minneapolis (now Target Corp.). The company expanded into the Southwest and the Pacific Northwest.
-- In September 2004, Target sold Mervyns to a private investment group led by Sun Capital Partners, making Mervyns again a privately held company.
-- Mervyns filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection July 29, 2008, and planned to close 26 stores by November.
-- Mervyns on Friday announced plans to hold liquidation sales at all of its stores through the holidays.

More From David F. Houston
- "The ease with which barley may be substituted directly for wheat in human food and its usefulness to replace wheat milling by-products as feed in the production of the milk supply render its abundant production important."
- "Corn is the leading food and feed crop of the United States in geographic range of production, acreage, and quantity of product. The vital importance of a large acreage of this crop, properly cared for, therefore, is obvious."
- "The duty of the individual farmer, at this time, is to increase his production, particularly of food crops."
More In Food
- "I recycle. I have a house in the south of France and I have a small garden. My name is Dujardin – ‘from the garden.’ I grow carrots, peppers, strawberries, green beans, and things for salads, but there are lots of wild boars all around and they steal the food."― Jean Dujardin
- "I try to eat in a way that makes me feel good. If that means a little bite of chocolate I do that, but I try not to use food as a reward for myself."― Jennifer Garner
- "Nobody believed the ‘Food Network’ could last. Even I was short sighted and thought to myself, 24 hours of food on TV? They’ll run out of things to talk about in four days! But that wasn’t true. ‘Food Network’ continues to get better and evolve."― Bobby Flay

One of Canada’s top labour law firms, which touts itself as distinguished for its “commitment to equality and social justice,” is facing strike action by its clerical employees, who say it underpays staff relative to competitors.
tap here to see other videos from our team.
Workers at Cavalluzzo Shilton McIntyre Cornish LLP began picketing the law firm’s downtown Toronto offices Tuesday, after collective bargaining negotiations stalled over a general wage increase and pension issues.
“We think the lawyers are cheap and they’re not willing to share their wealth,” said Ken Cole, president of Unifor 333, in an interview. “Employees are being paid extremely below the market average in this industry and they’re a labour law firm so it’s quite bizarre for them to treat them this way.”
Founded in 1983 by Paul Cavalluzzo, Jim Hayes, and Elizabeth Shilton, Cavalluzzo specializes in employment and labour law, and has itself negotiated collective agreements for unions and other organizations.
“I wanted to be a labour lawyer because I felt that workers needed more protection than employers,” Paul Cavalluzzo told Italian-Canadian magazine Panoram Italia in 2015. In the same year, he represented the Canadian Union of Postal Workers, the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers as intervenors in a landmark Supreme Court case involving the Saskatchewan Federation of Labour where the judiciary acknowledged the the right of workers to strike as a constitutional right under Section 2 of the Canadian Charter of Rights, which guarantees freedom of association.
“That was a very significant constitutional case for workers and it certainly was very satisfying for me as a labour and constitutional lawyer,” he told Panoram Italia.
Cavalluzzo was appointed to the Order of Canada in 2014. His citation notes his role as lead counsel on the Maher Arar inquiry and the Walkerton inquiry, as well as his work as a labour lawyer representing farmers in Ontario.
The firm did not reply to requests for comment.

Harley-Davidson is a well-known manufacturer of motorcycles. Through its subsidiary Harley-Davidson Motor Company (HDMC) the group manufactures and sells an expansive range of distinctive motorcycles, as well as motorcycle parts, accessories, general merchandise, and related services. HOG is listed on the New York Stock Exchange and currently has a market capitalisation of $3.6 billion.
Harley-Davidson recently advised that, in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, it has decided to make “significant changes” to its business, strategy, and operating model. Going forward, the company wants to reduce complexity, sharpen its focus, and improve its profitability and long-term growth prospects and it plans to achieve this by resetting its operating model and focusing on top-priority opportunities. "COVID-19 has dramatically changed our business environment and it is critical we respond with agility to this new reality. The crisis has provided an opportunity to re-evaluate every aspect of our business and strategic plan,” said Jochen Zeitz, CEO and President of Harley-Davidson.
Source: 2iQ Research
What stands out to us about Harley-Davidson is the fact that in mid-May, both CEO Jochen Zeitz and CFO John Olin purchased HOG shares. Combined, these top-level insiders spent a total of around $1.25 million on stock. This represented the largest amount of insider buying at Harley-Davidson in over two years. Zeitz’s purchase of 51,020 shares looks particularly interesting – not only was it worth just under $1 million, but it also boosted his holding by over 50%. We see these insider purchases as a bullish signal. They suggest that management is confident that it can turn the company around.

I've also included a couple newer pictures of the puppies for your viewing pleasure. :)
|Schroeder's favorite spot to nap is on top of the couch. He seems to think he's a cat.|
|Maddie enjoying a Greenie treat. Doesn't she look like she's smiling?|
A few months ago, though, we decided Maddie needed a friend. I'm a huge believer in animal rescue, as there is currently a terrible problem with pet overpopulation in America, so naturally I started researching dogs at various local rescues.
I didn't want a shelter dog (from a kill shelter) because shelter dogs have a stigma. They're not always vaccinated. They sometimes come with emotional baggage. And let's face it, kill shelters are terribly sad.
But then I found Schroeder, my handsome purebred Cocker Spaniel, and he changed all that. We took a chance on him, and oh, what a glorious "chance" it turned out to be.
So you can see how my dogs teach me daily about redemption. They came from awful situations, and now they're sleeping on Brookstone blankets. At least, when we're not looking.
That's where this blog fits in.
Maddie has this obsession with their food bowls. She wants their food to be in both bowls. If one bowl has food but the other doesn't, she will paw at the empty bowl until someone comes to fill it up. So the other day, there I am, sitting on the couch and watching TV, and Maddie walks over to her food bowls and proceeds to shamelessly paw at the empty one in an effort to get my attention. I told her, "Maddie, you have plenty of food in the other bowl. Eat out of that one." Reluctantly, she walked over to it and ate from it.
And in that moment, I thought to myself, how many times does God say to me, "Ashley, you have plenty of food in the other bowl. Eat out of that one."? Sometimes we get so distracted with what we think is the perfect means of sustenance that we miss out on the bigger bowl. We're so filled with discontent that it blinds us from seeing provision.
In what ways do you find yourself focusing on the empty bowl, and how has God called you to a bigger one He's already provided?

UK visas approved for overseas league players
The Bradford Bulls have two new players after high-profile signings Heath L’Estrange and Brett Kearney had their UK visa applications approved.
The third signing and fellow Australian Glenn Hall is expected to receive his UK visa within a week.
The delay in Hall’s UK visa was due to a change in his family circumstances, as initially his wife wasn’t going to travel over with him but now she will be.
L’Estrange, Kearney and Hall should be able to join the Bulls squad for pre-season training during the next fortnight.
Sports commentators are calling the news a boost for the club.
