Vornado is a US firm based in Andover, Kansas, that designs and manufactures household fans and other small appliances related to air circulation. The current incarnation of the company was founded in 1989, two years after the death of Ralph K. Odor (1895-1987), who founded the firm in the 1930s with Ottis A. Sutton in Wichita, Kansas. The name of the company is a portmanteau of "Vortex" and "Tornado".
Ralph K. Odor experimented with different designs to improve airplane propellers in the late 1920s. In the 1930s, Odor met Ottis A. Sutton and the two men continued to experiment with different designs for propellers and were granted several patents. Odor and Sutton realized the propeller designs could also be applied to household fans, and after the end of World War II, the O.A. Sutton Corporation began marketing Vornado fans under the Vornadofan brandname.
Early fans were designed by industrial designer Richard Ten Eyck., and were distinguished from ordinary fans by enclosure in a short duct shaped as aerodynamically contoured cylindrical ring, with an added concentric flared intake duct ring, sharply pitched blades, stationary vanes and aerodynamic grille, and rubber shock-mounting; the design was advertised as making the fan exceptionally quiet, efficient and effective, delivering a narrower, more-concentrated blast of air than normal fans.
The company later added a line of air conditioners.
Amid sales that had fallen to half of its peak, the company ceased production in September 1958 and began liquidating its inventory, and manufacturing and office equipment were auctioned off in June 1959. Sutton's air conditioner coil manufacturing line was purchased by Gibson Refrigerator Co. and moved from Wichita. In October 1959, the O.A. Sutton Corp. was purchased by the discount department store chain Two Guys, which subsequently renamed itself Vornado, Inc.
The consolidated company expanded the Vornado line of appliances to more than 50 in under three years, including ranges, freezers, hair dryers, and electronic can openers sold by the Two Guys chain as well as other dealers, though the manufacturing operations were outsourced. That company eventually divested all retail operations and evolved into what is now Vornado Realty Trust, a real estate investment trust.
From 1997 to 2008, the Vornado headquarters in Andover, Kansas hosted the Antique Fan Collectors Association's (AFCA's) Antique Fan Museum in their lobby, featuring antique electric fans sourced from AFCA members around the world, as well as some modern Vornado products. In 2008, the museum relocated to Zionsville, Indiana at ceiling fan manufacturer Fanimation's headquarters.
The Vornado brand name was resurrected in 1989 by Michael Coup. Operating under the name Vornado Air Circulation Systems Inc., Coup obtained the rights to the Vornado trademark and worked with original designer Richard Ten Eyck to come up with a new fan design. Initially the company operated in northeast Wichita (Vornado's original hometown). The design consisted of a unique spiral front grille with patented "Vortex Action" technology, which allowed air to exit in a spiral pattern, and bounce off of walls, allowing for whole-room air circulation. The air circulators also contained modern updates of some classic Vornado features, such as the rear air inlet (which allowed ambient air to enter through the rear of the fan to be recirculated and a plastic, three-winged blade with a unique design. These air circulators were available as table, floor, stand, or window models, and were available in different colors. The "Vortex Action" technology and uniquely-designed blade was also used for Vornado-branded heaters, air purifiers, and dehumidifiers.
Between January 1989 and August 1990, Vornado sold about 135,000 of its fans with a distinctive spiral front grille. In August 1990, competitor Duracraft began offering a cheaper, visually similar fan, and by November 1992, Duracraft had sold nearly one million of them—that company's second-largest-selling household fan. Vornado sued under the Lanham Act claiming deceptive imitation in appearance—but an appeals court ruled against Vornado, because the design had been a part of their expired patent, and was now in the public domain.
In the late 1990s, Vornado introduced a line of reproduction fans, starting with the Silver Swan table fan, which was based on the Emerson Electric Silver Swan table fan from the Art Deco era in the 1930s. The line expanded with modern reproductions of Vornado's own "VornadoFan" air circulators. The "Alchemy Series" was introduced in 2017, featuring custom finishes and a custom storage bag included with each product.
According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), from January 1993 through February 2004, Vornado received over 300 reports of defective heater units overheating, melting, smoking, or catching fire. The CPSC alleged that Vornado Air Circulation Systems, Inc., failed to promptly report these incidents to the CPSC as required by law, saying Vornado only reported the incidents to the CPSC after CPSC staff started asking questions, in February, 2004.
In December 2006, Vornado Air Circulation Systems sold most of its assets to a private equity firm, which formed a new company, Vornado Air, LLC. , in Wichita's neighboring suburban community of Andover, Kansas.
In January, 2008, the CPSC reported that a liquidating trust, acting on behalf of the by-now dissolved manufacturer, Vornado Air Circulation Systems, Inc. (formerly of Andover, Kansas), agreed to pay the government a $500,000 civil penalty, settling the prior CPSC allegations against Vornado Air Circulation Systems Inc., regarding the 300-plus unreported defective heater units. Vornado did not, however, concede any violation of law.
On August 14, 2014, the CPSC announced a recall of 79,000 Vornado-brand electric heaters (Vornado VH110 Whole Room Vortex electric space heaters) which had been made in China for Vornado Air, LLC, of Andover, Kansas, and sold for about $60 at several major retail store chains and online sellers. The recall followed 29 reports of units overheating and melting, including seven reports of heaters catching fire, resulting in one report of smoke inhalation and one report of property damage caused by soot and smoke.
In 2017, Vornado introduced their line of Energy Smart air circulators (fans). The fans feature Direct Current (DC) motors, are manufactured at Vornado's headquarters in Andover, Kansas, and have an infinitely-variable speed controls with either a manual rheostat-type control, or a digital pushbutton control panel. The Energy Smart line has since expanded to air purifiers and humidifiers.

I began my journey in the Cosmere (Brandon Sanderson’s connected universe of fantasy and magic) three years ago when I picked up the Way of Kings on something of a drunken whim. I devoured it in a matter of days and moved on to Words of Radiance and Edgedancer before waiting with bated breath for Oathbringer that same year. I’ve since moved backwards(ish) through the Cosmere, reading both Mistborn trilogies and a bunch of short stories only now finally getting to the book that started it all—Sanderson’s debut Elantris.
Skyward was an explosive whirlwind of action, quick dialogue and quirky characters that went immensely deep by the time I reached its closing chapter. Little surprise here, as this is Brandon Sanderson we’re talking about. Starsight, meanwhile, is a different beast altogether, delving into the complexities of the galaxy outside of the human settlement/prison that is Detritus.

Outsourcing can offer a host of benefits e.g., it might improve your relationship with your partner, provide more time with your kids, and most importantly, reduce your stress. If you don’t have the financial resources available, try open communication to come up with a plan of action that acknowledges and accommodates each other’s viewpoints, strengths, and active schedules.
If both you and your ex are on the same page then there really shouldn’t be a reason why you can’t go back for some fun once in a while. In saying that, this is rarely the case. In my opinion it’s best to stay away: if you’re just after a bit of fun, then download Tinder. Avoid any situations where people could potentially get their feelings hurt, no matter how little harm you think it can do at the time.
Romance isn’t just about a box of chocolates on Valentine’s Day. A satisfying relationship can also make people feel happy and healthy. But keep in mind that successful relationships aren't just about rainbows and butterflies—a healthy partnership requires communication, respect, and plenty of good habits from both people. So when dating that special someone, avoid stalking their ex on Facebook, keeping feelings bottled up, and splitting the double cheeseburger every night. These (and five other) bad habits could make a great relationship take a turn for the worse.
1. It stops the damage. If you respond with calm and poise when your ex breaks up with you, you let the relationship stand on its own instead of giving the response to the break up a featured status. And your odds of an ex coming back to you with the relationship itself being what is judged is much higher than the final experience with you being your fit.
It's best to admit your mistakes. You'll need to forgive yourself for your part in the breakup, then move forward to seek his forgiveness. If you lose your temper and say things you don't mean, pull yourself together as quickly possible and apologize sincerely. There is nothing weak or demeaning about apologizing. On the contrary, it shows strength and good character. But when you apologize, be sure you mean it. A disingenuous apology is worse than no apology.
Well my boyfriend who I've dated for 4 months this told me he just doesn't feel the same way how I feel. We talked about it before and this is our second breakup. What confuses me is how he says he still cares about me and hates seeing me broken like this. And in my heart I love him even with this, and I've read your article that I shouldn't try to pl ish for something because it'll just push him away more and I dont want that. Is there any way or possibility that we will be together again? I've seen this before with one of my friends and her and her ex got bsck together again and he wont let her go ever again. I ha e this thought in my head that it'll happen to me where he'll come back and we'll have a stronger relationship and be together. I'm in the grief stage now and everything just hurts. Is there any way that I'll know he will know that this was a good decision he made between us? He messages me still a day after the break up and he says he feels horrible for putting me through this pain again. I just want to know what to do next for him to take me back.
And so I got ready while he was checking his email on the computer, pretending that I was going out and he ask if I'm going some where and I said yes. And then I tease him a bit about his hair since he havnt. After that he said I looked happy and I said I am, that stuff got shift these pass weeks. And when he came out the gate walking on the road he said it again that I looked happy and I said I am. And so since he doesn't have FB I texted him suggesting he get a fb account and add me, personally it would have been good if he saw some stuff I posted. Anyway he respond and said ''U look happy and like u trying to take care of yourself that's good. And no thanks i don't like fb. I forgot to ask does my friend mother still have that place for rent?" "I hate being by the apartment feel like a kid there. i just need a place and some time to myself to let out my rage and sadness the way i want I've been holding back since they in the house all the time " I did something stupid, so my cousin and been searching net and she found something called the Second chance letter and so I wrote one and gave him when he came to pick up some of his clothing. I wrote it just as explained, saw a sample and did it that way, In the beginning I put that I accepted the break up and then apologize that I didn't showed that I appreciated him and then the part stating that good things been happening and someday would like to tell him about it but right now we both still needing space. The next day in the morning, he texted and said he read it and doesn't mind sitting down and talking someday. Then in the night he sent a text asking me if he can ask me something and I said okay sure. "Why do u want me back? What is it about me that u love so much? and he feels like he wasn't doesn't his best as a partner as well. I respond to him that it would be best to talk in person about it when he is ready and then I g...
I would add one additional observation, backed up by research findings. When couples have strong skills for talking cooperatively over differences, they find collaborative solutions to "those annoyng little ticks." Often the solution comes just from more understanding of each other; sometimes small changes that each are glad to make also help enormously.
According to research, the number one cause of the breakup of romantic relationships is failure to communicate. If your relationship was otherwise happy, this problem can often be fixed by setting clear expectations and openly discussing frustrations before things explode in a big fight. Other issues can be harder to overcome, like infidelity or jealousy; but with work and counseling, even these types of issues are possible to work through.
well, i agreed (how could i not, he’s cute ;) ). i wasn’t sure if he’d show up. but he did. he did cook n it was awesome. during the party he asked me not to leave the city. when i told him i had no reason to stay back. he said there may be now. so we saw each other everyday after that. went out . he really took care of me, shared about his family. we really like each other. he even said lotta times he really liked me and that he was sad i was leaving. asked me to stay, coupla times. but i really needed to leave. he even came to see me off. things changed totally after i left. he did not call. when i did, he spoke normally and said he had been caught up. later after a week or two, he did nt show any interest to call. so i stopped calling too. once i called him n asked what was goin on. to my surprise he said we enjoyed together. but he cant do long distance. I’m flabbergasted how can anyone just shut off things just like that. was he pretending all the while?
We tried to be friends for 3 weeks because I missed him terribly and I thought it helped me (and him) manage the pain as we text and call all the time, but last weekend, we ended up kissing and making out. I called him to ask him what this means, and if he is standing by his decision to be with the other woman, and he says he has no comment on his decision as he's equally as confused himself.

I understand your urge to remain in contact with him for fears that he might move on but right now, it would be better to give him some space to breathe while you spend this time making positive self-improvements and working on the issues that caused the relationship to fall apart. The constant fighting could have caused him to re-examine the decision to remain serious and committed to the relationship, especially if he wasn't happy anymore. You're going to have to identify the root cause of the fighting, and avoid taking the same steps again. If you still want to send the letter out, I think it would be fine but avoid contacting him before and after you send the letter out.
So Eric I’ve been talking to this guy almost 2 years. He says he likes me a lot but does not know what he wants we not in a relationship he enjoys my company a lot I like him too but need more.I think he’s confused some times it feels like he wants to and then next time he pulls away say he been hurt so much he’s not ready .Do u think it’s an excuse or what .I know he seeing other people but denies it .Please give me your opinion
If you do happen to hear through the grapevine that your ex is seeing someone new, try not to jump to conclusions or let jealousy set in. By no means should you do anything to try to thwart a new relationship. Let your ex have some time to find out if you are really the one; you don't want to force a person to be with you who really wants to be with someone else.
Many women have quite simple and somewhat boring lives, so she might struggle to relate to you with your travel-filled lifestyle, amazing car or massive house that you told her about (for example). And if she struggles to relate to you because she sees you as WAY better than her, she will go cold and initiate the no contact rule on you. “He’s out of my league.” Then she initiates a breakup.
I need advice. We met on match.com and only dated about 3 weeks but had a great connection from the very beginning. Plus we share a lot in common (we agree about a lot, graduated high school same year, kids are same age). But he broke it off because 1) we moved too fast (didn’t have sex but went further than we intended by date 2) and 2) we’re in different places in our lives – I’m going through a divorce and he’s been divorced for years. I’m devastated. We ended things amicably last week (I didn’t fight it, though I wanted to) and we haven’t been in contact. But he’s been back on match.com already. My question is, what are our chances for trying again in the future? Did moving too fast derail us completely?
The trick is going to be to prove to your ex over time that you are better suited than anyone else to make them happy. You need to try to stay positive when you around your ex and build on the fact that you have a shared history: humor, anecdotes of things that happened while you were together or even just small talk will help you make your ex feel comfortable and want to spend time with you.
Guys become distant because we lose interest in you. It might be the way you dress, how you talk about the same problems over and over again, etc. If you wouldn’t cry, whine, cause drama about it, etc, we’d be up front and move on. But because it’s a process with potentially more talking, complaining, crying, etc… we just start to ignore you more and more until you decide you’re mad or over it. It’s just easier.

For example, when you go out on a night out with the girls leave some things to yourself like where you went and what you had to drink. This might be a trickier one to handle though as you don’t want to be too mysterious and make him think you have cheated on him, there is a very fine balance to this… you don’t want it to backfire and turn into an unnecessary argument.
The third is to be emotionally available enough to listen when she just needs someone to talk to, and to resist the urge to try to fix the problem. If you’re not sure what she needs when she comes to you, ask her! It shows you care enough to want to be there for her, in whatever capacity she needs. Sometimes we just need a hug. (Man that sounds cheesy.)
So since the last meet up at his apartment. I left him alone. 6 days after not reaching out to him and trying to do the NC. He texts me late at night while I’m out with friends saying he misses me and if I could come over. I was dumb and called him an hour after I received the text and ask him why he wanted me over and if he was drunk. He said no that he had honestly just woken up and that he didn’t realize how late it was that he missed me and if I could come. I asked for what and he said to talk. I got my hopes up thinking he was gonna give me answer to thinking about us and giving us a chance. I further asked him what he wanted to talk about and then he became vague. Then I felt like it was just a late night booty call and told him that I wasn’t that type of girl and to not treat me as one. He then continued to ask if I would come over that we could talk but never said what about. He then was like forget it’s a bad idea and maybe we could tomorrow instead. I told him I was busy tomorrow but I’ll see. Tomorrow came and by the evening I texted him like an idiot I feel if he still wanted to talk and he was like it’s not a good idea, I’m sorry. I replied with I guess we know why you really texted last night and he stop replying after that. What do I do now? I want him but then again now I feel like I shouldn’t
So hear I am 30 days no contact, regularly going to my spin classes again, buying furniture for my new condo, focusing on me...but I feel like an emotional basket case most days still and no phone number to reach him. I really wanted to spend more time with him I feel as though it was cut short and I was still in the honeymoon excited about the future phase. What should I do? Short of showing up at his door step or writing a letter I have no means of contact (except social media). I was hoping I would hear from him soon and hoping he realizes that he made a mistake...any advice would be helpful
And while we’re talking about jealousy, you should also try to refrain from reacting if he posts a picture with a girl, or likes a girl’s social media posts, or even if he starts dating a girl. Jealousy is ugly, unattractive, and destructive. Maybe you’re hurt that he seems to be moving on, but lashing out at him is not going to swing the pendulum back in your favor. And you really don’t know what’s going on. Maybe it’s a rebound fling, maybe the girl in the picture is his cousin, who knows and who cares? This is not where you should be putting your attention at the moment.
Freud once called female sexuality "the dark continent," and if that's true, then male sexuality might as well be the dark planet. Because when it comes to sex, men are far from simple. (As much as they may try to convince us otherwise.) The bedroom is one of the great stages of male performance, so what you see on TV is typically far from what can (and should) be delivered in reality. That's why sex experts chimed in with more accurate insight about what guys really want you to know when the two of you climb into bed.
#1 You are too pushy. If you are coming on too strong and he is not in the same place in the relationship, he will likely start to withdraw. Guys don’t like feeling pressured into being with someone. Wanting to maintain control, if they feel as if you are moving too fast, trying to persuade them to take the relationship to a point they aren’t ready for, they will begin to pull back and try to create distance.
You'll have to understand that being good friends have nothing to do with the relationship once you get involved with each other and promises to remain good friends should the relationship fail simply holds no value anymore. As for the reason why he broke up with you, it often is due to taking the other party for granted, and growing intolerant to that person over time. This results in one party feeling tired of being in the relationship and simply pushing blame and thinking whatever the other person does is wrong.
Whether you’re looking to be in a relationship or already in one, pay close attention to the man you desire to be and make sure you are being just such a person. Be honest and congruent with who you say you are, and match it with who you appear to be with others. You know how someone says something about you and it makes you feel good deep down inside, because that’s exactly who you feel like you are. That’s being confident and true to who you believe you are. Walk in that. Imagine if this were the case with you and the person you want to be in a relationship with. It makes for a hell of a relationship.
8 months now, we normally live together but he’s away sometimes to take care of the kids for like a week every month which no problem for me. He agreed that moving back to that location is good for the kids education but for her he’s not sure. However, my concern is that he now has to be away to that new location that his ex and kids will move to (it’s also his hometown), to help on finding the apartment and prepare for schooling.
This is a good article. I probably broke some rules. My girlfriend broke with me three weeks ago, she blocked me from social media except from emails. We'd been emailing us but last night she told me that she wants to recover peace and happyness. I accept to prove her needy. We'd been together for four years. Hopefully in the no contact time she would miss me, as I do miss her. Today I sent her a text message with a flower, wishing her a good day and reminding that she is more beautiful than the flower. I would try the 30 days challenge.
Alright, assuming you successfully engaged your ex boyfriend and got a decent response you can move on to this section. I’ll admit that you will have a distinct advantage here if you had a long relationship and made a lot of great memories. If your relationship was brief then this part of engaging your ex may be a little bit more challenging. However, that doesn’t mean anything bad it just means you might have to get more creative.
I kind of agree with both of you. I get what you mean with your post, Eric, some women just force into a relationship with a person who will never commit simply because he just does not feel the same way about her, and still she tries to push him. But I also agree that we sometimes, being more mature, I don’t know, have to act like if it was a game, knowing the right moves and words because otherwise the guy will freak out and just leave. I’m with a guy for 6 months now and he still is not sure if I’m “the one”, although we always have an amazing time when we’re together. Maybe he’s afraid to lose his freedom, or that I’ll be all jealous and stuff, but it’s very hard to pretend that I’m ok with this situation when all I wanted was a serious and honest conversation, but I have tried that in the past and he thought I was pressing him.
Peter realized that now, as an adult, he had more options than he had had as a child for finding solutions to his life challenges. Therein lay the hope for change, pointing the way toward healing. He could safely ask his therapist for attention. His wife also did not intent to put him in a demeaning or emasculating position. She just wanted change.

Hi, I’m currently going through the painful process of a messy breakup. I actually did a few of not all the mistakes from step number one(mostly because he didn’t even wait 24hrs after our breakup to start talking to other girls..) Eventually, he texted today that he was sorry from the bottom of his heart and if he had it his way he would still date me but he also said that we just need to stop talking completely for “both of a sakes” because I was “too invested in him” . He said that he was a burden and I although I do love him, and I would only like to be with him later on. I want to do this. I just don’t know if I’d be blocked by the time I do end up contacnting (maybe a couple months from now). I read this article, and it honestly helped me a lot. A lot of these, I had already thought about but this just reinforces that this is what I should do to heal myself. Thank you for it!
The worst thing you can do in a deal is seem desperate to make it. Leverage is your biggest strength – it means having something the other person wants or can’t do without. She decides it’s in her best interest to commit. Most people don’t want to “brag”. I say do it. BRAG! Don’t be afraid to talk about your good qualities and what you have to bring to a relationship. If you don’t tell her then who will?
Hey girl! so, Birsel-love, dear, while I’m no expert in the area of love, (I dont consider myself one at least) but, from women to women, from girl to girl, I would be of most happy to service you on my advice on this. Can I? May I? please? if so, then carry on, read, but honestly, if not, at least, at the bare minimum, would you mind considering this just a little? ‘kay? thank you, I appreciate your thoughtfulness, even if i don’t get to see you reading this, its a step.❤ ( WAY BELOW, AFTER THE DOT LINE, IS some expert ADVICE: check it out; she’s yrs married now)
if you only tell him you miss him, that will not complicate things at all. in a relationship, you gotta be open and transparent. if you love him, tell him. if you miss him, tell him. don’t wait for him to say it first just because you’re too afraid he won’t say it back. you are telling him because you feel that way and not because you want to feel good about yourself.
Is there another possible explanation for what seems like hot and cold behavior? Yes! If it’s not something new going on in his life that’s changed his routine, it could be about your relationship. It’s possible his feelings are dwindling, but it’s also possible he’s just settling into a more natural routine now that he feels the relationship is more settled.
Without even realizing it, he’ll see how great being in a committed relationship is. It’s even better if you talk about it but you need to be careful. Instead of saying things like, “anything for my boyfriend.” Say something along the lines of, “I’ll do anything for someone I care so much about.” It’s less scary and proves to him that you really do care.

Even when someone breaks up with another person, sometimes the habit of being together and talking remains there because the other person would probably feel the gap in his/her life just as much as the person they broke up with. However, understand that you're on the losing end by accommodating to him because he is currently using your company to fill the void so that he doesn't have to deal with the emotions himself, while you probably feel everything, from the hurt of seeing him but not being together, to the confusion of the situation. NC might be a better choice to deal with the breakup, and if he genuinely still wants to be friends after, you can take it from there to see how it progresses.
Getting the partner to want to work at the marriage is generally one of the least effective ways to initial marriage upgrades. I like though your idea about understanding the other person better, especially if your partner is someone who doesn't open up and talk. The more you understand your partner's patterns and take those as given, the more you become ready for real change.
Similarly, if he’s getting your attention, praise, sex or whatever just because… even with bad behavior, there is no incentive to want to get you back in an official way. There is no reason he would do anything different than he has been doing since what he’s been doing so far has worked well. In addition, giving in to him and giving him everything he wants just makes you look needy and desperate. He might be thinking, if she is so desperate to have me then maybe no one else wants her… and if no one else wants her… why should I?
I'm a bit nervous about how to approach this, I know I have to be light, to look like I'm making changes (which I am), to look positive and happy even though I'm not always like that. But there is a part of me that really wants to be serious and tell her to bet for me, not to take me back (I know I don't have to be pushy at all) but to allow me to show her how I'm overcoming things? Is it a bad idea to be a bit intense with a person which I had a lot of intense talks? I want to tell her my true intentions, that I do want her back, but that I'm willing to wait and for her to see that I have changed...I guess my question is, it is ok to voice the real itnentions in this manner? To even say, look in this time alone I did realize I do trully love you, and that it is not coming from a place of fear?
Being part of a couple can be difficult, but the best relationship tips are really all about maintenance—keeping things fresh, finding time for each other, and coming up with ways to navigate the tricky ups and downs every partnership faces. Of course, it’s all easier said than done, so we’ve come up with 101 ways to make your relationship even better.
Spend time with good friends. One of the best ways to source yourself is to put yourself in the company of good friends. Good friends remind you of who you really are. They can give you a new perspective on things and can generally be fun to be around. Good friends serve as one of the best distractions as opposed to eating a bucket of ice cream and watching Netflix all alone because they can help to build you up in the meantime and leave you more empowered, stronger, and more in touch with who you are. It might be worth it to define who good friends are. Good friends are friends that help you choose the most useful and empowering interpretation of your situation. They don’t look to blame or help you wallow in self-pity. They have compassion for you, yet believe that you are inherently fine. They remind you of how fun you are and how much life itself has to offer. Spending time with people like this will feed your soul. During this time take advantage of everything these wonderful people in your life have to offer. Plan a trip. See that show you all always wanted to see. Do all the things that make you feel alive and do it in good company.
I hope this helped you understand exactly what to do in order to get your ex back. There’s one more thing to remember – even when you do get him back it’s very difficult to keep him… unless you know how to make him want to be with you and only you forever. You need this secret formula to get your ex back in your arms for good. It will reveal how to get him to see you as “the one” and desperately crave you by his side forever. If you don’t read this now you might miss your chance to get him back forever so don’t wait: Do You Want Your Ex Back? Use This To Get Them Back…

VANCOUVER – The Province is closing another loophole in residential tenancy regulations in a bid to keep rental rates down.
The BC government is getting rid of the “geographic rent increase clause”, which allows landlords to seek huge rent hikes if other units in same the area are being rented for higher amounts. The current allowable rent increase is set at four per cent but the clause allows landlords in hot markets to raise rents at significantly higher rates to match neighbouring prices.
MLA Spencer Chandra Herbert says the clause has meant many tenants have been living in fear of drastic increases to their rent.
“Landlords were using a clause where they could say ‘your neighbour is paying 40 per cent more than you, so we’re going to apply to increase your rent by 40 per cent’. In some cases upwards of 73 per cent,” he says. “It just wasn’t fair, it led to a lot of abuse and in quite a few cases, it led to people losing their homes. And it just wasn’t right.”
He says the clause left many tenants feeling threatened.
“The concern we had… is that rents are already fairly unaffordable and in many cases, landlords were using this to bully people into paying much higher rent increases, saying ‘we’re going to apply for a 70 per cent rent increase but if you sign today we’ll only give you a 30 per cent rent increase’.
“That was just not fair, it abused the spirit of the legislation, it was not how it was supposed to work.”
Chandra Herbert says the West End and North Vancouver have been hotspots for large rent increases based on the clause.
The Tenant Resource and Advisory Centre says some renters have reported agreeing to increases of 30 per cent after a landlord threatened to raise rates by as much as 50 per cent.
The province says by getting rid of the clause, renters no longer have to fear significant rent increases based on the market where they live.
The change follows the NDP government’s announcement in October that it would eliminate vacate clauses and restrict rent increases between fixed-term tenancy agreements — all of which come into effect on Monday.

2024 Ford Ranger Raptor Redesign & Specs.The future generation of the mid-size Ford Ranger is on the way and if we can rely on the latest reports, the Raptor variation will ultimately involve The United States and Canada. Up until now, this off-road was offered just in Australia, with a diesel engine. The new model ought to involve the united state market too, outfitted with a lot more qualified gasoline engine. Now, the officials are still silent regarding the new design, which ought to come as the 2024 Ford Ranger Raptor, according to reports.
As you may assume, this version would certainly feature all type of upgrades, contrasted to the basic model. This especially refers to auto mechanics, to things like suspension and off-road equipment. Naturally, we likewise count on a couple of exclusive exterior information, along with on a couple of indoor features.
If we can rely on rumors, the new version could get here already in the following year.
2024 Ford Ranger Raptor Redesign
Normally, the 2024 Ford Ranger Raptor will come based on the basic version of the future generation. The new design remains in growth and we count on the further evolution of the T6 system. In this specific case, we would see loads of upgrades, particularly in regards to mechanics. The first thing that enters your mind is suspension. We depend on greater ground clearance, longer travel etc
2024 Ford Ranger Raptor Engines
This is just one of one of the most appealing aspects of the new 2024 Ford Ranger Raptor The current model is provided in Australia and it includes a diesel engine. Certainly, the North American design will certainly operate on gasoline and there are few opportunities in the video game. Among them is a 2.7-liter V6, which puts out around 325 horse power and 400 pound-feet of torque.
While that’s definitely a capable engine, several think that the new performance truck can come with the company’s new 3.0-liter turbo V6, which produces around 400 horse power and 515 pound-feet of torque.
Despite the engine option, the 2024 Raptor would certainly come with a 10-speed transmission. 4×4 would be standard, along with selectable drive settings and various other off-road features.
Designing and Inside
Besides substantial mechanical upgrades, the 2024 Ford Ranger Raptor ought to likewise include great deals of exclusive aesthetical details, which would certainly accentuate its off-road nature. We assume the new design would certainly take a lot of inspiration from the F-150 Raptor, beginning with the blacked grille and various other similar information. Certainly, we trust one-of-a-kind wheels and along with on a full lots of devices.
On the within, the Ranger Raptor ought to can be found in a distinct color design. It ought to come with a black inside, while we additionally depend on a little bit various seats, some sewing and comparable things. As we are discussing a version that will certainly be one of the most costly in the lineup, we additionally depend on a lengthy list of standard features, whether it has to do with technology or convenience goodies. More details should can be found in the future.

About our Yellow Web Design Inspirations
Yellow is a fantastic color if you’re looking to grab your website visitors’ attention quickly. As well as helping people to quickly engage with your content, you can use yellow to illicit a range of emotions from your audience. Typically, yellow is used to energize and make people feel happy, while it can also be used to illicit feelings of confidence and enthusiasm about your brand.
Regardless of how you plan to use a yellow website design in your project, and no matter what your website is for, you’ll be able to achieve high levels of engagement, deliver an exceptional user experience, and convert more of your visitors.
Why choose a yellow website design?
Whatever your website is selling or the information you’re providing, bright colours are always brilliant for grabbing the attention of your visitors. While yellow is a bright, warm, and energetic colour, using deeper tones of yellow can also make your website feel serious and understated. Using a yellow website design will give you a lot of flexibility around your messaging and color combinations you use to complete the appearance of your site.
Choose one of our inspirational web designs below to experience the power of what yellow can do for your site!
How will a yellow website design make your visitors feel?
One of the best things about using yellow in your website design is the range of emotions you can draw from your visitors. We all associate yellow with the spring and summer, with warmth, and energy. Yellow is also an optimistic color that can portray a sense of confidence, a great emotion to portray through your messaging but also to instil in your customers. Who wants to buy from a website that isn’t confident in the message it gives to its visitors? Who would buy from you if they don’t feel confidence themselves?
With a yellow website design, you can make your website visitors feel incredible about what they’re going to buy from you, leading to them feeling other emotions like anticipation and excitement.
What colors match well with yellow?
The best two colors to match with yellow are black and white, but other warm colors like red – think of the McDonald’s logo and branding – can also match brilliantly with yellow if you do it well.
In terms of using black and white with yellow, almost any combination works well, especially when it comes to creating blocks of color on your site. These color combinations lend themselves to creating distinct contrasts, great for things like calls to action. Just look out for white text on yellow! This can be difficult to read and a strain on the eyes, so whatever combinations you use, try to always keep text black.
Can I use different shades of yellow in my design?
Sure, different shades of yellow can work well together, but they typically work better when used in conjunction with other colours. For example, a bright yellow with a softer yellow, mixed up with black, will work well, but a bright yellow immediately alongside a softer yellow might not be as impactful as you hope.
Still, with one of our yellow website design inspirations, you can play around with the one you like and if combining shades of yellow works for you, you can go ahead!

The Quakers, also known as the Society of Friends, had no direct influence on life in Fairfield, but they didn't miss it by much. As strict abolitionists, they came to Indiana as early as 1812 and were entrenched by 1820, though more in Fayette and Union counties, northward to Wayne County where they were extremely influential.
Quakers, by and large entered the years of the civil rebellion as conscientious objectors and generally refused to serve in a military role. There were exceptions and Quakers were typically scorned or mistreated for failing to volunteer for militia service. Many were jailed for refusing to fight.
But their most significant role in the years leading up to the Civil War was their management of what became known as the Underground Railroad.
Not a "railroad" at all, it was a path from slave states northward into Indiana and Michigan and eventually, Canada for blacks (referred to as Negroes at the time) who were runaways. The practice of helping slaves escape was ongoing and it was difficult to measure.
Typically, those who managed it were disinclined to discuss it, let alone enumerate its successes and failures. No one knows for certain how effective the Underground Railroad was, or how many slaves it helped. But it was real and Franklin County played a key role.
Orloff G. Miller, a spokesman for the National Underground Center in Cincinnati, wrote:
Most of the routes across the easternmost counties of Indiana crossed Franklin County northbound for Newport, In Wayne County. One route came up the Whitewater River Valley from Lawrenceburg to the Quaker settlements south of Brookville, and on to Fairfield, thence into Union County. A route also crossed the county from the west, out of Kingston/Clarksburg in Decatur County.
There were very few established Quaker settlements south of Brookville, though Quakers bought land in the Highland Township area prior to 1820, most as land speculation. That area eventually became heavily Lutheran. Few Quakers actually settled in that part of the county, though fleeing blacks would not have known that.
Wayne County is the heartbeat of the Indiana Underground Railroad, thanks to its heavy Quaker population. As well, Universalists in the Union-Franklin County area were aligned to the Quakers on many matters of faith, including their disdain for slavery.
Perhaps the most famous Hoosier in the Underground Railroad movement was Levi Coffin, whose home in Fountain City (then called Newport) is considered a destination for people exploring the history of the era. Coffin and his wife Catherine are credited with aiding more than 3,000 runaway slaves.
Blacks fleeing the South did sometimes stop in Franklin County and remain for a time. The general route was from the town of Clarksburg in Decatur County, north into the Posey Township area near Laurel-Andersonville, then east past Blooming Grove and into Union County, where the Quakers were at least marginally common. At Fairfield, the runaways would cross the river at Shawnee Ford, where it was shallow.
|Salem, where the Quakers met|
As well, the legendary story of Luther Donnell is worth recounting. According to one history, a slave family who found sanctuary with Donnell eventually took the Posey Township route to freedom, via the Fairfield route. A link to Donnell's story is at the end of this entry.
Now for some juicy stuff from the Patricia Smith email:
"In Franklin County, I have heard of a house on the west side of the east Fork of the Whitewater right north of Brookville which stood about where the spillway is. It is said that it had a red door and that Negroes fleeing north were told that it was safe there. The house was reported moved to Fairfield
Avenue across from Riverview Apartments in Brookville."
Ms. Smith also says that there were, for a time, about 200 African-American freedmen in Franklin County. In 1850, she says, a town called Franklin was platted in (perhaps) Butler Township where blacks could live. The land didn't sell, presumably because ... well, maybe they didn't have any money.
Several settlers from the South brought black slaves with them to Indiana in the early days, though slavery itself had been outlawed. That connects to political manipulation by territorial Gov. William H. Harrison in the days prior to Indiana statehood.
I have been unable to determine if any residents of Fairfield participated in the Underground Railroad, though one would assume that the early settlers who came to Indiana were generally abolitionists. It's unrealistic to assume they did not at least have a working knowledge of the transit process. -- John

If you’re looking to improve vessel performance, you’ve probably already thought about how data could help you plan more efficient routes and optimise your ship’s engines. What you may not know are some of the other ways data-driven decision making can improve vessel performance – these seven inspiring tips show you how.
Ship owners and operators are increasingly finding that data is the key to improved vessel performance. Whether it’s using data to optimise engine performance or to find optimal routes, data-driven decision making saves you money and improves the efficiency of your assets. Data is also becoming easier to access and analyse, opening up new possibilities to use it to its full potential.
When you’re interested in using data to improve your vessel’s performance, these seven tips will show you what you could achieve.
Regulations like the International Maritime Organization’s Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) make it mandatory for ship operators to monitor and incrementally improve their vessel’s environmental performance. You can use data to monitor and forecast emissions based on vessel, equipment, and route information.
Your benefit – You can make better decisions that will reduce the cost of complying with CII and other regulations.
While data visibility is often needed for compliance, there are other benefits too. Data platforms bring multiple sources of information together for the most accurate representation of the facts in any given situation, whether that’s emissions monitoring, performance monitoring, or weather data.
Providing clear visibility for multiple stakeholders also increases trust and accountability. Whether reporting emissions, evidencing charter-party compliance, or ensuring best practices are followed on board, the ability to see relevant data in real-time both on the vessel and on shore is a significant benefit. Transparency will also become more important over time as the demand for robust and quick-reacting logistics grows.
Your benefit – You can increase your situational awareness, build trust, and improve your reporting capabilities.
No two days are ever the same at sea. The changing world that we live in – including regulatory compliance, sanctions and frequently fluctuating fuel costs – demands decision-making that can keep pace. In shipping, priorities can change from one moment to the next, whether it is reaching the next port quickly, boosting your CII rating or optimising your route to avoid bad weather. Unlike with manual processes, data remains responsive to change – so you can act quickly and change course when your priorities change, while maintaining optimal vessel performance.
Your benefit – You can react more quickly to shifting priorities without impacting vessel performance.
The ability to track iterative change gives you the ultimate learning tool. Data provides a detailed historical record that can help evaluate the impact of any changes on how your fleet or individual vessels are operated. Whether you’re aiming to cut fuel consumption, navigate more safely or maximise fleet utilisation, data can help you review and evaluate the impact of your decisions, helping you to achieve your targets.
For example, maybe you want to assess fuel performance over time and identify where there are opportunities for improvement, or perhaps you want to see which of your vessels are most suited to clean technologies based on their performance over the last year. Data can show you the way.
Your benefit – You can learn from the past and more easily identify opportunities for improvement.
Machine learning means that many of today’s analytics tools are self-improving, with feedback loops that help them get better over time. The more data available, the better solutions become at identifying, validating and analysing relevant information. Data systems not only assist decision making, they also continuously improve their ability to offer decision-making support.
Your benefit – You can use data to help you make better decisions.
Today’s software algorithms make recommendations that can then be analysed and interpreted, blending software insights with human expertise. The transparency introduced by having shared data and connectivity can help you access a wide range of knowledge and expertise when trying to optimise your operations and improve vessel performance. This can include support and advice from project managers, analysts, technology innovators and subject matter experts – all contributing to your data-driven decisions and augmenting their own decisions with data insights.
Your benefit – You can access knowledge and expertise to help optimise your operations and improve vessel performance.
To stay competitive, you need to find every means possible to minimise waste and maximise efficiency. Data-enabled decision-making holds the key to finding cost savings and optimising every voyage, helping you to improve efficiency. These cost savings also free up money to invest in energy-saving devices that will further improve vessel performance.
Your benefit – You can more easily find new ways to cut costs and further improve efficiency, freeing up capital to invest in energy-saving solutions.
With new regulations like the IMO’s CII requiring ship operators to monitor vessel performance more effectively, modern vessels are being built with data handling in mind and the hardware already in place for connected systems. But given the long life of ships, there are still plenty of vessels sailing that are not very well set up for life in the digital age.
The good news is that hardware-light and software-only solutions are now available that can help you to gather and analyse data from older vessels too, giving everyone the opportunity to improve vessel performance.
For example, Wärtsilä’s Fleet Optimisation Solution (FOS) makes it easy for you to follow the seven tips above, improving vessel performance in a variety of ways, including:
The solution is built around software services and application programming interfaces (APIs) that can be easily installed on any vessel.
FOS can tap into one or multiple vessel systems, usually starting with the mandatory Electronic Chart Display and Information System (ECDIS) used on every ship’s bridge. This functionality opens up a wide scope of optimisation possibilities because it allows your vessel data to be combined with external information sources. A single solution that can use all vessel data and combine it with external information is a critical tool for decision-making support. And because FOS is built around software not hardware, the results are achievable with a relatively low investment.
A holistic approach to data-driven decision-making brings greater advantages than isolated optimisation efforts. As time goes on, the insights offered by data management systems will likely become increasingly automated. This will further reduce the time and resources needed to make decisions. There is also the potential for high-frequency data collection, amassed and driven by the Internet of Things (IoT). Such data collection will enable even more detailed insights. For example, data will be able to tell you when it makes the best business sense to clean your vessel’s hull.
To take another example, analysis of fuel consumption and speed can be combined with input from navigational systems to identify other variables. These can then be balanced against the fuel penalty of not cleaning the hull, the vessel itinerary and the cost and availability of cleaning facilities. Likewise, IOT-generated insights can aid in the analysis of engine performance, which can help to optimise usage and predict when maintenance is needed.
When your goal is to improve vessel performance, the most important tip of all is not to look at specific areas for optimisation. Instead, take a holistic view that encompasses all the data generated by your bridge and engine room. It is this data that will show you your shortest route to optimised vessel performance.
Are you ready to unlock improved vessel performance? Find out more about fleet optimisation and how it can improve the performance of your vessel.

Two years ago, thousands of angry Malaysians voted out the corrupt government of the disgraced ex-prime minister Najib Razak, who recorded the lowest popular vote in Malaysia’s history at 36 percent.
It was an embarrassing, well-deserved landslide electoral defeat. After recently marking the second anniversary of the rakyat‘s stunning triumph at the ballot box, it’s useful to turn the lens backward and consider Najib’s legacy. Najib’s 1MDB scandal was one of the largest financial frauds in Asian history, but that is not all: After reviewing the evidence, one can only conclude that Najib’s permanent legacy is weakness.
National peace and prosperity are difficult for any government to accomplish, but it was even more difficult for an incompetent politician like Najib.
First, Najib weakened the Malaysian economy: Najib was ranked as Asia’s worst finance minister by Finance Asia Magazine for good reason: Under his watch, the Malaysian ringgit currency plunged to a 16-year low, Malaysia’s GNI per capita dropped to record depths, and the economy racked up some of the worst household debt levels in all of Asia.
The World Bank repeatedly criticised Najib’s government for pushing Malaysia into the middle-income trap, let alone for creating an education system incapable of supporting the economy. Indeed, 77 percent of the Malaysian workforce possessed only SPM-level education or lower. Under Najib’s watch, in the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) academic examination, Malaysian students scored poorly as the second-worst students in Asia.
As the artist Sheila Majid famously pointed out, GST and the cost of living under Najib skyrocketed, and the lack of good jobs that contributed to Malaysians’ economic struggles. For example, a Bank Negara survey showed that under Najib’s watch, three out of four Malaysians found it difficult to raise even RM1,000 (US $300) for an emergency.
While Najib jabbered vague slogans like “People First, Performance Now,” “the New Economic Model,” and “Fourth Industrial Revolution,” his government ministers and civil servants frequently missed their own economic targets, and the size of Malaysia’s entire economy was still smaller than the U.S. state of Wisconsin. Meanwhile, he selectively quoted and omitted bad news from economic reports, and The Economist Magazineranked Malaysia as second only to Russia on its Crony Capitalism Index. Later, investigative journalists discovered that Najib had tried to bail himself out of his 1MDB scandal by selling out his own country to China’s debt trap.
Today, Najib has a paralysing fear of prison. He knows that the judges and prosecutors are closely examining the evidence for his financial crimes, and that his acquittal in court is not guaranteed.
Time Magazine listed Najib as one of the world’s most unpopular heads of state because of his consistently weak approval ratings. He could not clearly communicate to the rakyat, nor he could not earn the citizens’ trust. His incompetent mismanagement of both Malaysian Airlines’ crises was almost universally mocked and ridiculed. Worse, Najib couldn’t tahan the fact that Mahathir Mohamed and Anwar Ibrahim were the more popular leaders.
Najib also revealed his many other weaknesses: His avoidance of the “Nothing to Hide” public debate, throwing temper tantrums and storming out of interviews when he couldn’t handle international journalists’ questions, his trembling submission to U.S. President Donald Trump in his failed visit to Washington, his cowardice under his materialistic wife’s “advice”, and his nervous begging to the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi to lie to save his stepson Riza Aziz from the U.S. Department of Justice– a request that the prince rejected, and that the Malaysian Anti-corruption Commission (MACC) recorded and publicly released.
Arresting critics and attempting to pass Fake News Laws was also Najib’s sign of weakness, not power. Najib’s global reputation was also weak: because of his poor international credibility and status, on at least five occasions, Najib appeared to be ignored by world leaders on the international stage.
All in all, US$681 million of the public’s stolen billions were redirected into Najib’s personal bank account. The Malaysian police also seized US$273 million in cash, jewelry, and hundreds of designer handbags from Najib’s and his family’s houses around Kuala Lumpur. Najib then tried to claim that his family’s massive haul of loot was a collection of “gifts” from other government officials, which triggered howls of belly laughter from most Malaysians.
During Najib’s rule, the annual Edelman Trust Barometer found that Malaysian’s trust in the Barisan Nasional (BN) government declined to their worst levels. Immediately after Najib and BN were finally booted out of Putrajaya, Malaysians’ trust levels shot up by 9 percentage points.
Najib may imagine himself to be a strong leader, but he single-handedly caused the BN regime to lose their 60-year grip on Malaysia. Worse, because of Najib’s numerous economic scandals, Malaysia became synonymous with corruption.
None of these are disputed facts.
Even with the current fragile Perikatan Nasional backdoor government, Najib is still legally blocked from departing the country. Indeed, Najib is still required to show up to courts for his unpaid RM1.69 billion in income taxes, his SRC scandal, his 1MDB scandal, and his other financial crimes. Currently, he also has almost no fans who are willing to show up to publicly defend him.
However, he and his materialistic family members were repeatedly given stern warnings about their thefts by SarawakReport, The Wall Street Journal, and even the U.S. Justice Department, so most Malaysians will roll their eyes and offer him zero sympathy.
Najib was a weak man to begin with. Unfortunately, he made Malaysia a weaker country: economically, geopolitically, and strategically. Malaysians are still paying for Najib’s countless failures– which highlights the truism that real leaders must serve their people– not the reverse.

Remember Napoleon: Why sanctions will never work against Russia
The purpose of the sanctions, those already imposed and those proposed, is to change Russia’s foreign policy. The main targets are Russia’s elites. The calculation of those who support sanctions is that because these elites are close to President Vladimir Putin, putting pressure on them will lead to their putting pressure on Putin to be more flexible.
Their calculations were wrong. The elites are not angry with Putin, they are angry with sanctions.
The imposition of sanctions has boosted internal processes that would hardly even have been launched without significant external pressure. Russian society has consolidated and united, and the Kremlin has used this social wave for its own benefit. Russia has focused on developing its domestic economy, which it was too lazy to do before sanctions. Russians are now working on meeting demand using their own resources. The military-industrial complex, mostly in ruins after the collapse of the USSR, is now restored and expanding, boosted by external threats.
The latest “Kremlin list” of supposedly influential Russians, produced by the US Treasury at the end of January, was greeted with much sarcasm in Russia (not being included was “grounds for resignation,” Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev joked). Nevertheless, it allowed Putin to urge businessmen named on the list to avoid sanctions by repatriating their wealth, which benefits the Kremlin. Capital has been fleeing Russia for a long time since the demise of the Soviet Union, as businessmen implemented tax-avoidance and money-laundering schemes, and sought refuge for their wealth in European and American banks. The new sanctions and the new list will probably drive them out of Europe and the US to Russia again.
European and American banks have launched investigations into the funds and deposits of foreign clients. If the client fails to prove the origin of their money, the bank may limit or even block the client’s transactions, or increase the fees and charges on such transactions. Such restrictions, regardless of whether the client is under sanctions, are making life difficult for Russia’s oligarchs.
Now that Russia has joined the Common Reporting Standard, the global mechanism for the automatic exchange of tax and financial information, it will be easier for Russian authorities to obtain full details of money kept overseas by its citizens. This better enables the Kremlin to restore money that was smuggled abroad. Furthermore, the new regulations will permit Russia to uncover money-laundering, tax fraud, suspicious income and so on. Russia is turning these challenges into opportunities. It is already working hard at encouraging Russian businessmen to return money home, giving them assurances at a high level. These include capital amnesties, which mean that wealthy Russians can freely declare their capital in foreign banks, overseas property and other assets. In return, Russia will not investigate or prosecute their companies. Russia has also issued special bonds to help businessmen to return capital threatened by sanctions. In many cases these measures are a lifebelt for wealthy Russians already facing tough pressure from Western banking and financial institutions.
Like the French emperor, those who think they can bend Moscow to their will take no account of the Russian spirit and mentality.
What is clear is that sanctions are not going to change the Kremlin’s course, or its way of thinking. The further implementation of sanctions is a risk for the global economy and the countries that impose them, as has already been admitted by financial institutions in Europe and the US. Furthermore, there is a probability that the flight of Russian capital from European and US financial and banking centers will weaken those countries and strengthen the Russian economy.
The truth is that sanctions and aggressive rhetoric from the West have served only to unite Russians in defiance. The most-quoted saying recently is that of Tsar Alexander III: “Russia has only two allies: its army and its fleet.” Russia has recalled its historical role and its national pride, which were trampled in the 1990s.
Aggressive statements from the West, mostly from the US and some minor European states — and rare calls to end the hysteria, mostly from Europe — are widely publicized by Russian state media. The effect on the public consciousness is to divide the world into friend or foe, and to consolidate the people into facing the aggressors.
Sanctions are irrelevant, and will never work against Russia in the way they work against other countries. They take no account of the Russian spirit and mentality. When Napoleon was conquering Europe, the continent’s leaders handed him the keys to their cities. The Russians, however, simply retreated, burning towns and villages behind them, and even gave up Moscow without ever actually surrendering. In the end, the French emperor fled back to Paris, defeated, his “grand army” in tatters.
Western countries have weak advisers on Russia. There is so much hatred that it blocks the capacity to think clearly. And that, literally, threatens the world.

Does your organization rely on readability formulas? A research review by Dr. Karen A. Schriver—“Plain Language in the United States Gains Momentum: 1940–2015”—takes a hard look at readability formulas. Schriver finds that readability formulas are often unreliable and invalid methods of evaluating text quality.
The review shows that achieving plain language is not a simple matter of counting the number of complex words and long sentences. Schriver examines why readability formulas and their results are so frequently misunderstood and misapplied. She argues that instead of using readability formulas, plain-language advocates should rely on usability testing as the best benchmark for judging their work.
Research over the last three decades tells us that reader-focused testing represents the gold standard for knowing what is plain. Testing tells us what will be clear, usable, useful, and accessible. Indeed, usability testing is especially important for assessing those high-volume public communications (such as tax documents) and low-volume, but critical, documents (such as instructions for emergency responders or legal contracts).
Schriver details why most readability formulas are both outdated and overrated. Even so, she sees automated intelligent assistance for authors as possibly quite useful.
With a focus on the U.S. scene over the past 75 years, Schriver traces how plain language evolved—eventually gaining momentum and acceptance by industry, government, and the American public. She also investigates the ways in which plain-language advocates changed their ideas about their activity over time. A few takeaways from the review are these:
- Plain language has evolved significantly over the past 75 years—from a focus on crafting clear sentences to creating effective multimedia, electronic, or paper communications.
- Plain-language practitioners have expanded their concerns from readability to usability to believability. Today, they not only want to know whether people understand the content—the usability and accessibility of the content—but also, whether people trust the content.
- Research tells us that most readability formulas are outdated methods for assessing text quality. Usability testing is the best benchmark for assessing plain language.
- The growing empirical evidence suggests that plain language works for everyone—young and old, experts and novices, first-language readers and second-language readers.
Review of plain language wins award
The journal IEEE Transactions in Professional Communication awarded the Rudolph J. Joenk Award for Best Paper of 2017 to Karen Schriver:
At the end of the article, Schriver offers a Timeline of Plain Language: 1940 – 2015. The timeline reveals not only the events that have transpired to shape plain language over the past 75 years, but also the people. Some of the people who shaped the field will be familiar, including members of the Center for Plain Language, such as Ginny Redish, Annetta Cheek, Joseph Kimble, Susan Kleimann, Joanne Locke, and Melodee Mercer.

Podcast about plain language
George Hayhoe, the editor of the IEEE Transactions in Professional Communication, interviewed Schriver for a podcast. It covers issues such as the why organizations still rely on readability formulas, building trust through plain language, international plain language, the legacy of the Document Design Project, and future of plain language.

Inspired by the Gaza mall photos, I will endeavor to feature various facilities from Gaza over the next few weeks, with the aim of providing readers with a glimpse into the real Gaza, which is anything but a concentration camp as some claim.
My point is not that there is no hardship in Gaza, but rather that the situation is a far cry from what is being presented by the palestinians, their supporters and the mainstream media.
Introducing Gaza’s Aldeira Hotel, “an architectural and artistic gem located on the sands of the Gaza coast.”
[click on any image to enlarge]
Built in sun dried mud bricks, in a traditional style featuring graceful arches, vaulted and domed ceilings, hand crafted furniture and open interior spaces, the Al Deira bring to mind an contemporary palace overlooking blue Mediterranean waters.
The hotel features 22 spacious rooms, an elegant restaurant and coffee shop overlooking the sea, wireless Internet access, a fully equipped
business center..and a very fancy website.
Needless to say, it ain’t cheap.

The Ukrainian armed forces have allegedly been trying to destroy Russia’s S-400 air defense system using AGM-88 HARM anti-radiation missiles recently provided by the US.
A Russian-language edition of The Eurasia Daily (EAD) reported on August 24 that for the past three weeks, the Ukrainian military has been trying to use AGM-88 HARM missiles to destroy illumination radars of the S-400 and Buk-M3 anti-aircraft missile systems that are positioned to provide air defense umbrella over Kherson and Nova Kakhovka.
According to EAD, the AGM-88’D’ variant of the missile was used to strike a specific S-400 position, but it failed to reach its target and instead landed in an apartment building in the Kherson region.
The EAD appears to be referring to the remains of an AGM-88 missile that were said to have been recovered from a house in Kherson Oblast earlier this month. However, it is unclear if the missile in question was the D variant of the AGM-88.
It has some damage similar to shrapnel hits which may have been received from air defense interception, however a malfunction is also possible. pic.twitter.com/gaaTAizKlS
— ?? Ukraine Weapons Tracker (@UAWeapons) August 11, 2022
The AGM-88D has GPS tied to its inertial navigation system (INS), unlike the older models, which would flow to the general target area using INS and then home in on emitters using a passive seeker.
Combining GPS with INS allows the AGM-88D to function in the Pre-Briefed Mode, in which the coordinates of the enemy radar site are already fed to the missile.
Since there was no indication that the house was the target, reports suggested the missile might have either malfunctioned; based on the possible shrapnel holes in the remains of the missile, it might have even been intercepted.
According to the EAD, the crew manning the Russian air defense system was able to detect the incoming AGM-88D missile and shut down the radars, depriving the missile of the ability to home in on the radiation.
The EAD noted that the incoming missile could have been detected by the 9S18M3 Kupol detection radar of the Buk-M3 complex, the all-altitude VVO 96L6 detector of the S- 400, or even the Gazetchik-E complex, designed to protect the ground-based radars from enemy anti-radar missiles.
In addition, the EAD reported that the GPS inside the missile could have been jammed by the Russian electronic warfare complexes of the R-330Zh Zhitel or R-330M1P Diabazol, leaving the AGM-88 with INS alone, which could not provide the accurate guidance needed for a successful hit.
The article by the EAD also warned that going ahead, such anti-radiation strikes could increase, and the Ukrainian forces could fire a large number of AGM-88 missiles to saturate the Russian air defense system, further suggesting that the ‘Tor-M2U’ could be the most appropriate air defense system to counter such a threat.
The report estimates that each 9A331M Tor-M2U combat vehicle could destroy at least 6-8 HARM missiles, and therefore an entire battery of 4 Tor-M2Us could engage with 24-64 AGM-88D missiles if deployed together with a unified battery command post “Ranzhir-M,” and the Poldlet-K1 or Gamma-S1 radars, for target designation.

"Free to Air Receivers" also called FTA receivers are satellite Television receivers that are developed to receive unencrypted broadcasts. The more mature versions depended on analog satellite transmissions and the dishes utilized to be twenty to thirty ft wide. Now they measure 6 feet. The C Band was first produced for satellite tv. It operated in between 3.4 GHz to 7 GHz. Then, much more lately the modern decoders are compliant with MPEG-two/DVB-S (Digital Video clip Broadcast - Regular). For digital televisions, the MPEG-four/DVB-S2 is the standard one used. Now most of the transmissions are on Ku Band frequency range and Ku band operates. It operates between twelve GHz and 14 GHz. Now the diameter of the dish is in between 18 inches to 31 inches.
In cases that you require to link several and various receivers and or L.N.B then what you need is a multi-change channel splitter.
