Free Affordable Florida Health Insurance Quote Online
Affordable health insurance is becoming harder and harder to find, but if you are willing to do your homework and comparison-shop you should be able to find something that meets your needs. Getting quotes that compare the different types of insurance is easy when you use an online health insurance website. An insurance quote website will quickly sort through the various companies and policies to give you the lowest quotes possible.
Florida health insurance plans
Before you get quotes on health insurance make sure you know what you are looking for, because there are different types of health care policies
- A Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) is a group of health care providers who agree to provide care for patients at a flat rate for a period of time. The provider becomes the gatekeeper in keeping costs down and under the flat rate, so that the provider can get a profit while still providing good care. And you the patient get the benefits of a lower premium. HMOs are typically good for health promotion and disease prevention, so if you are a young person or a young family, this may be a good option for you. Often baby checks or yearly physicals are at little or no cost to you. You have little flexibility to see other providers unless your primary provider makes a referral, but these plans can be the least expensive.
- A Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) is a group of health care providers that contract with the insurance company to provide care at a specific reduced fee. The provider gets the benefit of having a captive patient load, and the patient gets the benefit of lower health care costs. If you need to see a provider who is not in the PPO network, then the cost to you is generally higher. These types of policies have a little more flexibility and will usually cost a little more.
- A Point of Service (POS) policy assigns you a primary care provider that you can see at a lower cost, and allows you the flexibility to see someone outside the network at a higher price, usually 20% of the bill. These types of policies generally cost more than either an HMO or a PPO. Once you have considered all the various options available in health insurance, do some comparison-shopping. An on-line heath insurance website can provide you with several free quotes to consider. You can find a policy that is a balance of what you want and what you can afford.
Affordable Florida Health Insurance Plans Online
One of the best ways to get affordable health insurance quotes is to go to a free insurance quote website. There you can get competitive price quotes from up to 5 health insurance providers so you can compare plans and prices. After you have your quotes, you can look closely at the policies and decide which one is the best for you.

This might be good news if you own other mreits besides NLY.
At least it looks like NLY will not drag down the sector now.
People are probably realizing all reits are not built the same and some offer much more value than others.
Off topic, MTGE traded back over it's last stated book value yesterday!
Good news. : )
I suspect the downturn in NLY is overdone. Even if the div is dropped 10 cents it's still an 11% return, which is great in this div-starved environment. As long as baby boomer continue to retire in record numbers we are OK.

There are many examples of family members sitting in parliaments at the same time. However, the first father-daughter team to sit together in a legislative assembly did not happen in Canada until 1996. That is when Sue Edelman was elected to the 29th Yukon Legislative Assembly, joining her re-elected father, Ivan John “Jack” Cable.
Mr. Cable moved to the North in 1970 after obtaining degrees in Chemical Engineering, a Master’s in Business Administration and a Bachelor of Laws in Ontario. He practiced law in Whitehorse for 21 years, and went on to serve as President of the Yukon Chamber of Commerce, President of the Yukon Energy Corporation and Director of the Northern Canada Power Commission. He is also a founding member of the Recycle Organics Together Society and the Boreal Alternate Energy Centre. Mr. Cable’s entry into electoral politics came in 1992, when he successfully won the riding of Riverdale in East Whitehorse to take his seat in the Yukon Legislative Assembly.

There are often new people reading planet5D and I find that they don't always know all the terms we use as filmmakers so I thought I'd cover some basics every now and then.
I've recently been sent two different Neutral Density (ND) filters and so what better time to introduce you to the Eclipse ND from Genus and the ND Fader II from LightCraftWorkshop and to show you how they compare to a polarizing filter you might be used to using on your stills camera (hey, that's really an HDSLR right?).
In photography and optics, a neutral density filter or ND filter is a filter that reduces or modifies intensity of all wavelengths or colors of light equally, giving no changes in hue of color rendition. It can be a colorless (clear) or grey filter. The purpose of a standard photographic neutral density filter is to allow the photographer greater flexibility to change the aperture, exposure time and/or motion blur of subject in different situations and atmospheric conditions.[/box]
Note: I'll never use the ‘autofocus' on the Canon Rebel T4i while recording – I promise! It was a failed experiment.

Scheduled to be launched in the end of 2019, the Hyundai Kona will be the brand’s first electric vehicle in India
Korean automaker, Hyundai will soon enter into the sub-4 meter SUV category with the all-new Styx, which will make its global debut at the 2019 New York Auto Show in April. This small SUV will be launched in the Indian market in the second quarter of 2019. Not just Styx, Hyundai will also introduce its first electric model in the form of Kona SUV in India this year. First previewed at the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show, the Hyundai Kona SUV is expected to be locally developed at the Chennai based plant. To set up the production line for the Kona EV, Hyundai India will invest around 7,000 crores. This will increase the production capacity of the plant by 1 lakh units and will create 1,500 new jobs.
The Hyundai Kona will also be the first electric vehicle in its league to come with two battery options – the longer-range 64kWh and the small capacity 39.2kWh unit. While the former offers a range of 470km from a single charge, the latter one delivers 300km of range. The torque (394Nm) and top speed (167kmph) figures of both the batteries are same. The 39.2kWh and 64kWh produce power worth 133bhp and 200bhp respectively. Initially, the Hyundai Kona Electric could be imported into India via CKD (Completely Knocked-Down) route. Hyundai confirmed that they are in talks with local manufacturers for battery supply. Additionally, the batteries could also be imported from China and Korea.

Hyundai Kona Price in India
|Minimum||Rs 20 lakh|
|Maximum||Rs 25 lakh|
Hyundai’s new SUV – the Kona (the regular version) is already on sale in select international markets including Europe and Korea. The SUV was unveiled for Indian audience at the 2018 Auto Expo. However, Hyundai will launch the electric version of the SUV in India that will target eco-friendly car buyers. The Indian Government is also planning to switch to full-electric cars by 2030. Hyundai is aiming to locally develop this electric SUV at its production plant, though it will initially come as a CKD kit. With higher level of local components, the Hyundai Kona EV prices are likely to start at Rs 20 lakh for entry-level model and Rs 25 lakh for the top-end model. While the regular version of the SUV (global-spec) rivals the Nissan Juke, Honda HRV and Toyota CHR, the India-bound electric model won’t have a direct competition.
Hyundai Kona EV India Launch
First unveiled at an event in Milan, Italy, the Hyundai Kona had its public debut at the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show. The SUV was also put up on display at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show. Hyundai India has showcased the regular model at the 2018 Delhi Auto Expo; however, it will launch the electric version of the SUV in the country. As mentioned above, the EV model will come via a CKD route and will hit showrooms in the second half of 2019. The exact launch date of the SUV is yet to be announced by the carmaker.
Hyundai Kona Exterior
Similar to the regular model, the Hyundai Kona electric carries bold and sporty silhouette and shares most of its styling bits with the former. However, what mark a difference between these two models are closed front grille, 17-inch alloy wheels and slightly tweaked bumpers and spoiler. The electric iteration of the vehicle also misses out on the exhausts. Hyundai says that the SUV design has a perfect combination of high-tech looks and sophistication, and it targets to millennial buyers. Designed on the i30’s platform, the Kona compact SUV stays close to the Intrado concept. Carrying Hyundai’s new design language, the SUV features a new signature ‘Cascading Grille’, two-tier LED headlamps with LED daytime running lights and sculpted bonnet at the front end. Styling elements such as small fog lamps, skid plates and aggressive creases further enhance its bold look. Read – New Hyundai Creta Is Coming Soon To India
Moving to the sides and you will notice the flaring fenders with sporty black plastic cladding and a pair of diamond cut five-spoke alloy wheels. It also gets a sloping roofline. The dual-tone exterior, featuring black roof and C-pillar are other highlights on the SUV. The chrome beading on the window and the roof rail on the top adds sporty flair to the SUV. The large plastic areas, which Hyundai called ‘protective armour’ – that placed over the wheel arches give it a rugged look. The flared wheel arches have been fitted to the standard 16-inch wheels. The SUV also come with the optional 17-inch and 18-inch alloy wheels.
While the face of the SUV seems inspired by the Intardo concept, the rear profile shares resemblance with the Tucson. Round the back, the new Hyundai SUV has wraparound cladding that accommodates reversing lights. It additionally gets a separate arrangement for foggy conditions, turn indication and reversing. The SUV also has a spoiler with an integrated LED brake light. Design elements such as skid plate, large bumper and black plastic cladding are also likely to ornate the rear.

Cardiff Council’s measures to enable pupils with special needs to integrate as fully as possible into mainstream school life have involved Closomat‘s services.
Cardiff Council’s Building Services has worked with Closomat to adapt existing facilities within a number of schools across the city, to ensure disabled pupils and their support staff are suitably accommodated to guarantee the safe, hygienic, and dignified use of the WC.
A key feature of the adaptations has been fitting of full room cover ceiling track hoists. In the past two years alone, Closomat has supplied and installed 10 hoists within wheelchair-accessible WCs, hygiene rooms and changing rooms.
Closomat’s hoists enable safe transfer of the child from wheelchair to any point within the WC or hygiene, changing room.
Usually ceiling mounted, the X/Y hoists can, if the space has structural limitations, be secured via discreet, slimline gantry legs/stanchions.
Closomat’s range of track hoist solutions can accommodate a 200kg/31st lift, and can descend as low as required – even allowing pick-up from the floor.
This means any pupil with special needs can be safely transferred without any undue strain on support staff, whilst their intimate hygiene needs are addressed.
Claire Haymes, Closomat’s moving & handling expert, commented: “Every child is different, and has different specific requirements. Equally, each school is different in terms of its facilities, available space and capacity for adaptation. Closomat understands that, and can execute solutions for each specific, in a timely and cost-efficient, compliant manner, that will work.
“The schools we work with are really happy with the smoothness of the installation, and the difference it has made in enabling a safe process for pupils and staff.”
Closomat’s range of hoists are part of its comprehensive fixtures to equip a fully functioning wheelchair-accessible toilet or hygiene room within schools, including height adjustable washbasins, wash & dry/smart WCs, and height-adjustable changing beds.
In addition, Closomat offers an innovative project management service, whereby it can survey, provide design advice, supply, install, and commission assisted accessible WCs, hygiene rooms and Changing Places, to ensure anyone using the school who has special needs, or who supports someone with needs, has an appropriate space, with appropriate equipment, to enable dignified, independent, hygienic and safe intimate hygiene.
Its expertise is outlined in a white paper to help LEA’s comply with all appropriate considerations and Regulations; ‘Considerations & Specification of Assisted Accessible Toilet Facilities in Educational Buildings’ can be downloaded from Closomat’s website.

Foundry FP, an event space at 7503 Madison St. is still trying to get a state liquor license almost a year after it opened.
The exact status of the license isn’t clear. According to Illinois Liquor Control Commission spokesperson Nicole Sanders, the state license application was rejected, but owner Linda Cibula could re-apply if she wanted. But while Cibula acknowledged that her application faced a few hurdles, she insisted that her application was not rejected, and she said she was still in the process of applying for it.
Foundry FP currently has a village liquor license. According to village attorney Sharon O’Shea, event spaces that have a valid village liquor license and are in the process of applying for a state liquor license can serve, but not sell, liquor. Cibula told the Review that she has never sold liquor, and that, even when she gets the state license, she only intends to sell it on special occasions, such as St. Patrick’s Day.
According to copies of the rejection letters provided to the Review, ILCC rejected the applications on April 18 and on Oct. 19. In both cases, the rejections were on procedural grounds. The April 18 letter cited failure to answer questions on some pages, failure to document whether Foundry FP bought any property from Urban Pioneer Group, which previously operated the event space in the building, and inconsistencies between the business information on file with the Illinois Department of Revenue and the information in the application. The IDR listed Cibula’s niece, Emmeli Blackall, as the sole owner, while the application listed both, and the business name was slightly different – “FOUNDRYFP LLC’ versus “Foundry FP” and “Foundry/FP Company.”
The Oct. 19 letter rejected the application because of the different name on the lease paperwork than the “Foundry/FP Company” name.
In both cases, ILCC letters specify that Foundry FP can reapply once the issues identified in the rejections have been corrected.
When asked about the license status, Sanders told the Review that the application was rejected. She did not respond to the questions on the exact timing of the rejection, so it’s not clear whether that refers to the Oct. 19 rejection, or if it was rejected again at some later point. Sanders confirmed that Cibula can resubmit the application.
When asked about the status of the application, Cibula told the Review that “I was not denied,” though she said that “we thought we were finished, but we missed one thing,” mentioning that tax information is an issue.
“We had to finish up some things,” she said. “No big deal.”
Cibula also emphasized that, while Foundry FP had served drinks – most recently, at the Dec. 2 holiday walk – they were given away for free. She also insisted that the state commission told her it was OK to do that. She also said that there have been instances when customers renting the event space brought their own liquor.
On Oct. 28, Foundry FP was cited for allowing customers to carry drinks outside and failing to control rowdy crowds. The event space reached a settlement with the village, with Cibula agreeing to improve security and charge customers a $1,500 fee that would be forfeited if police were called.

As I read Yashika Singla’s conversational part-memoir, part-manifesto, My Subconsciously Feminist Father, I wondered whether a book on feminism in 2023 really has to lay out such basics. I had to remind myself that not every young person is brought up away from limiting, preconceived gender roles. Despite this, I would bristle again—this time, at her narrative-creation.
I do agree with her that beliefs, and how they play out in parenting, can be complex. And the format she has chosen for her book could have easily helped her present complexity with nuance. Each of the 10 chapters starts with a collection of memories, and is followed by a sub-section, “Unsolicited Suggestion”, addressing that section’s theme. The title is attractive, too, as it sets out also to appeal to a man, especially the mamma’s boy who thinks he is better than any average feminist because, say, he loves his mother, sees the (read: for the) sacrifices she has made.
Singla traverses her growing up years, when her father, driven by his compulsiveness, would take charge of domestic chores despite his “proud patriarchal” or “sexist” traits; her marriage to a not-actually-feminist man; and conversations with friends, some inspiring and others she terms “nouveau feminists”. Here, Singla loses her way. Incidents that could have illuminated clear points on equality are overwritten and fall into the trap of making problematic declarations.
The promise of her book lay in how it would tell fathers (and at times mothers) how to be, and raise feminists, not by gimmicks, but by seeing egalitarianism as natural to themselves and their relationships. But she slips up by trying to make sense of her memories or infuse misplaced humour. Take, for example, an incident with her father chiding her then pre-teen sister for wearing a salwar kameez, telling her she shouldn’t wear “all this”. Singla somehow infers, in retrospect no less, that he meant her sister would end up wearing such clothes as an adult married to a sexist husband anyway, so why now. She uses the title as a weak justification: “It could be said that he was imposing his ideas on her and forbidding her from doing what she liked—how is that any better than forcing her to do the opposite? Well, I never said he knew what he was doing. That is why I started calling him the subconsciously feminist father...!”
This makes her inconsistent in tone and in labelling beliefs. She talks about a male friend as one who “definitely isn’t a feminist; he just doesn’t believe women are lesser than men in anyway nor does he feel threatened or a constant need to be better than them. Another subconscious egalitarian maybe.” If this was tongue-in-cheek, it was not apparent. It ought to be in a book written to explain that feminism is basically about men and women being equal—Singla does after all explain this algebraically in her introduction.
My Subconsciously Feminist Father was a great concept in its attempt to stress that feminism doesn’t have to look a certain way: It can occur when men are decent colleagues, considerate partners, good fathers; it can show up as women exercising choice fearlessly but respectfully, a phrase Singla uses herself. The book could have truly become a simple yet revolutionary reminder, a manifesto for all homes. If only it didn’t try so hard.

O'LEVEL- East Sheen 7"
Reissue of this late '70s UK underground single, originally released in 1978. 'O' Level was created in 1976 by London guitarist Ed Ball (Teenage Filmstars, Television Personalities, The Times) with the Benett brothers (Johnand Gerard), who would leave the band in March 1978. That same line-up plus Dan Treacy recorded the first Television Personalities single in 1977, titled 14th Floor. 'O' Level self-released that same year their first single, which included two tracks strongly influenced by punk's energy (Buzzcocks and Undertones guitars and melody on "East Sheen") and attitude (with ironic comments about fake punks on "Pseudo Punk").

Common Partnership Disputes
Here are the most common partnership disputes and why you should seek the help of an Ellis County business attorney to help resolve these types of disputes outside of the courtroom.
Most partnerships often start with the hope to blossom in the future. Unfortunately, things may not go as planned. The partnership may break apart due to disputes, leaving some partners in substantial financial crisis due to debts and other liabilities. The disputes may also ruin the company's reputation.
Filling a lawsuit can be a way to resolve partnership disputes. However, resolving disputes through litigation can damage the reputation of the business. Therefore, it's advisable to seek the help of an Ellis County business attorney to help resolve these types of disputes outside of the courtroom.
The most common partnership disputes arise from:
Most partnership agreements contain a detailed guide on how to dissolve the partnership if things fail to work out. Besides, there are specific legal obligations for partnership dissolution. Unless the agreement demonstrates otherwise, it's unlawful for a partner to leave the partnership promptly.
- Breach of Contract
Contract breach is one of the most common causes of partnership disputes. It's essential to take partnership contracts seriously, whether written or unwritten. If one of the partners has violated the contract, other partners can make a breach of contract claim. It's essential to consider hiring the expertise of a business attorney like JD Foster in the initial stages of partnership to ensure you effectively solve the dispute in case there is a breach of contract.
- Breach of Fiduciary Duty
All partners should be willing to handle the business's financial interests over and beyond their individual interests. Failing to honor this commitment is known as a breach of fiduciary duty. The breach of fiduciary duty may also occur when a partner fails to meet a client's obligation.
Embezzlement occurs when a partner intentionally takes the assets or property belonging to the company without permission. Some of the most common forms of embezzlement include shrinkage of inventory, false expense claims, forging invoices and cash receipts, and payroll fraud schemes. Embezzlement is a serious offense punishable under law.
The conviction can result in hefty fines or a lengthy jail term sentence. If you have been accused of embezzlement, business attorneys at Foster Massengill, PLLC have the expertise to offer the legal support you need.
- Violating Trade Secrets
It's normal for partnership businesses to collaborate with other businesses to source new products or services to enhance visibility and boost revenue. However, one downside of participating in such collaboration is the possibility of exposing trade secrets. Obtaining critical information about the partnership and using it after leaving the partnership can be one of the causes of partnership disputes.

What Home Means To Me
Home is not only the place I go to hang out and chill
Home is the place I go to feel safe
I go home to protect myself
I go home to be surrounded with people I love, not people I don’t feel safe around.
When we all go home millions of people still don’t have a home to go to. Some people still don’t have a safe place to go like most of us who have a home, and some people still only have an alley. We are pool divers but they are dumpster divers .
So with one entry one life, could be changed so this is why I want to enter Habitat for Humanity’s contest, so I can change lives and I hope this has inspired you to enter to change a life.

An AES-Core Development by Using Verilog
|Mahesh Walunjkar1, Md. Manan Mujahid2, Syed Anwar Ahmed3, Ashish Jadhav4
|Related article at Pubmed, Scholar Google|
This article emphasized on FPGA design to develop AES CORE using verilog HDL. Mainly the work focus on 5 modules like, key generation, shift rows, mix columns, xoring module and top module- integration. All these modules are authorized in verilog HDL language. The key generation module generates required keys from the given key. The left circular shift operation is performed by shift rows. The mix columns perform the matrix multiplication with constant matrix. Xoring module specifies the xoring the text data with the key. The top module indicates the integration of all modules and it is treated as the AES Core. Prior to AES, Data Encryption Standard (DES) is a widely used method of data encryption using a private (secret) key that was so difficult to break. With the Triple DES implementation of DES, there are 5.1 * 1033 or more possible encryption keys that can be used.

Cold, calculating, efficient, a little bit dangerous. Great first look at Eisenberg's take on comics' most iconic villain. Looks like it might be a mugshot or something (those could definitely be prison threads he's wearing). I'm a total believer in Jesse Eisenberg in this role and I have been since he was announced. Dude is a great actor who knows how to play bitter, resentful, focused, determined, intense... he's got Luthor written all over him. He's going to give Jared Leto's Joker a good foil to bounce off of and I'm sure we'll get some great scenes bringing them together.
Everything we've seen regarding the look of Dawn of Justice has been spot on so far. It will be interesting to see if we can see a compelling version of Robin on screen. What other characters are you guys excited to see?
Eisenberg is going to give Jared Leto's Joker a good foil to bounce off of and I'm sure we'll get some great scenes bringing them together. Mr J. and Harley are definitely the next duo I want to get an "official look" at, because everything Leto has been teasing on social media looks like he is going to nail a totally different take on the character than Ledger's.

I often go by the West Coast Recreation area for a spot of cycling on weekends, get some fresh air, sunshine and exercise.
One of the evenings, I decided it might be interesting to do some photography. This photograph was taken last year, October 2010, and was done with the HCD4/28 as a 4 panel stitch. Click on the image for a 1.2MB, 1080 high image
Due to the extreme wide angle of the lens, there is obvious side distortion, which exaggerates the perspective...which is my intent for this photograph. The final print is rather detailed...with the small specs resolving into little boats. Not easy to see on the web, but on print this is very clear.

The "meaning" of this "star tattoo" changes depending on whether the star points upwards or downwards. If the star is facing downwards, it is looked upon as a Satanic symbol. On the other hand, when the star is pointing upwards it stands for protection, balance, etc. The four points of the star are said to correspond to the four elements in nature, while the fifth point is said to be Spirit, who rules over the elements. If sense of harmony is what you want, then this is an apt tattoo design. A lot of people opt for "pentagram star tattoo designs for foot".
The "Star of David tattoo" is a six pointed star. It has religious significance attached to it. David is said to have carried a shield, which looked similar to a six pointed star in the battle against Goliath, where Goliath was defeated. It is looked upon as divine interaction with humans. The other meaning attached to this design is that of 'Seal of Solomon', also known as "Creator’s Star". A number of followers of Jewish faith are seen wearing this "small star tattoo".
It is seen, that a falling star fulfills all wishes. It can be used to make a "tattoo design". It is commonly used to make "star tattoos for girls". A falling star tattoo design makes for a beautiful, bright and happy symbol and does accentuate the look of the design. When a single falling star is made, it is seen as a symbol of positiveness and happy person. Hence, among the star tattoo designs for girls is a "falling star tattoo". It is also a "popular star wrist tattoo design".
If you are fond of "tribal tattoo", then you may like the "tribal star tattoo designs". They are often made in conjunction with animal or plant tattoo design and symbolize strength and fertility among other things. For "star tattoos on foot", they make a perfect design.
The"nautical star tattoos" for long have been associated with the sailors. However, since the past century, they are also associated with soldiers who are going on a mission overseas. The "nautical star tattoo meaning" is different for different people. For sailors and soldiers they are seen as a talisman, who will protect them from dangers and guide them back home safely. Taking cue from this, it is now also looked upon as a talisman to guide people through life in their bad times. If you are looking for "star tattoo designs on hip", then you may want to consider "nautical star tattoos on hips".

Traveling to a different part of the world with your classmates creates bonds that serve us in every regard, well after the trip is over.
Blair encourages students to interact with people of other cultures and countries through meaningful travel opportunities, and our goal is to ensure all students have the opportunity to experience other cultures through travel during their time on campus. In recent years, students and teachers have explored Eastern and Western Europe, Africa, Asia and the Caribbean.
Faculty members lead immersion trips during winter, spring and summer breaks, with the goal of encouraging students to apply classroom lessons to real-world situations and challenges. In addition, our J-term program, triennial orchestra trip and our senior spring project open the door for students to develop crucial intercultural learning skills both on and off campus. These transformative experiences raise students’ cultural awareness and help Blair students to become global citizens who are committed to serving others and contributing to the good of their communities.
Although travel opportunities vary by year, Blair students and faculty have visited five continents. In addition to the international destinations listed below, many trips have taken students to domestic locales across 14 U.S. states.

A former homeowner who fell on hard times and couldn’t find work, Dionne Webb teetered on the edge of homelessness.
She found a new home in the Rosa F. Keller Building in Mid-City, New Orleans’ first mixed-income and permanent supportive housing facility.
Now others like Webb will have the opportunity to keep a roof over their heads, thanks to a second development UNITY of Greater New Orleans has under construction on Louisiana Avenue on the edge of Central City.
The idea of the developments is to prevent those on the cusp of homelessness from getting there and to rescue from the streets the most vulnerable of the existing homeless population. In the latter instance, the goal is to make people more self-sufficient through the permanent supportive housing that connects chronic homeless with on-site case management services.
Webb, who three months ago found a job in food services at Delgado Community College and was able to move out of a shelter she called home for a short time, said her paycheck just wouldn’t cover any other housing, something that would leave her living in a shelter permanently or on the streets. At the Keller building, she pays $581 a month for her one-bedroom unit. That figure is based off a sliding scale that takes her income into account.
“I’m blessed to be in this apartment,” Webb said. “I’m truly blessed.”
Martha Kegel, executive director of UNITY, the nonprofit homelessness collaborative, said it’s not uncommon for low-income workers such as Webb to be in a precarious housing situation. Rents shot up after Hurricane Katrina, but many wages remained stagnant.
“We’re trying to help people become as self-sufficient as possible,” Kegel said.
Part of that involves the case managers who help some residents find work while ensuring that those who already have jobs keep them. It’s a way to give a permanent home to the city’s vulnerable homeless — those who are old, sick or mentally ill, for example.
That permanence is what sets the housing initiative apart from other ways of combating homelessness, said Jeanne Reaux-Connor, UNITY’s project manager.
In addition to the services offered, there’s a sense of community at the facility that helps prevent residents from falling through the cracks, something that can easily happen if they’re left alone or are just part of the crowd at another facility, she said.
The new building at 2101 Louisiana Ave., a former assisted-living residence, will have 42 units and is expected to be completed by summer 2013. Officials hope that it will continue to put a dent in the city’s estimated homeless population of about 4,900.
While the Louisiana Avenue development will be the second permanent supportive housing facility in the city, it will not be the last.
Kegel said plans are already in the works to redevelop the former Sacred Heart of Jesus elementary school on Canal Street in Mid-City. The agency hopes to work on a project at the former naval base on Poland Avenue in Bywater.
“It’s important to get the second, third, fourth and fifth,” buildings Reaux-Connor said.

|Project by alexsutula||posted 01-16-2010 08:08 AM||3071 views||3 times favorited||12 comments|
This is the project that started it all. This bar took me a year to build. I built it in my advanced woodworking class my senior year in high school back in ‘04. I wish i can say i designed it but i purchased plans online. I knew from then on i wanted to pursue woodworking. It is constructed with maple and birch plywood. I made the arm cove molding myself on the table saw and added an inlay on the top. It was an incredible learning experiance for me and was a great beginning project. The plans allowed me to concentrate 100% on my technical skills and not have to worry about design aesthetics.
A good friend of mine parents like it so much they wanted me to build them one. Unfortunately, i agreed to do it at cost. But on the upside, it allowed me to hone my skills. I flipped the design and changed some detail.
-- You can't stand apart unless you're prepared to stand alone. Alex, Cleveland

Physicians are often puzzled when pain continues on, sometimes long after the underlying cause (say an injury) goes away. More and more, forward-thinking physicians are viewing chronic pain not simply as a symptom, but rather as its own unique disease. Dr. Elliot Krane, a pediatric anesthesiologist at Stanford University, recently discussed in a TED Talk and with National Public Radio some possibilities as to why it makes sense for us to begin thinking of chronic pain as a disease in order to be more successful in helping people.
There is hope. We are here to help, schedule an appointment today with on of our licensed therapists and begin to take back your life!

I wanted a couple of different style Christmas decorations to adorn my festive shelves this year, my first proper Christmas in Evesham……
…… and when I saw this teal coloured, plastic picture frame (24.5cms x 9.5cms) in Home Bargains for just 99p I knew exactly what I was going to do.
I took the glass out and made a very simple, snowy background using spotty red paper to make a snowy sky and plain, white paper for the snow.
I found out this wooden snowman with felt embellishment that I bought a couple of years ago in The Range Christmas sale, for just 25p. He measures 11cms by approximately 7.5cms at his widest, the perfect size and proportion for the frame.
All I had to do then was glue the snowman in the middle of the frame with PVA glue. The snowman is about 3mm deep so he stands everso slightly proud of the background, which adds a little extra dimension.
It’s tempting to add a just a touch of iridescent, fine, white glitter to the snow, so far I have resisted, I quite like the plain effect, however I think, in the end I will give in to the lure of the sparkle!

Skim Milk will be performing at Vancouver’s famed Music Waste Festival 2016! The show will take place Saturday, June 4th at The Lido @ 12am. Check out the event page here.
Skim Milk is the solo project of Sam Davidson, a contemporary clarinetist and producer from Vancouver BC. Skim Milk reaches across technologies and eras, from Bach to Boards of Canada, often citing soulful drum grooves, whimsical clarinet melodies, and antique piano riffs.
Having a strong background in classical music and jazz improvisation, Davidson currently uses foundations of hip hop and electronic music as creative medium where he can freely explore many genres and steal from them accordingly.
Skim Milk is the paper mache of music genres—yesterday’s news, shredded and pasted together to craft something entirely new and original (sometimes filled with candy). Sam Davidson is also a member of critically acclaimed band Brasstronaut and of Toronto-based Jaron Freeman-Fox and the Opposite of Everything.


This gem in the Allentown community welcomes creative musicians, artists, writers, and music lovers. When you visit this award-winning live music bar, you’ll find a relaxed and intimate atmosphere and lots of talent.

Scott City, Kan. (westernkansasnews.com)–This years spring sports season has been one of attempting to dodge wind, rain, snow and cold temperatures. Friday’s doubleheader for Scott City at home was the nicest day of the year for softball, and the Lady Beavers were able to take advantage of that. Not only was it a big GWAC doubleheader, but it was a doubleheader of teams that could face off in regionals in less than three weeks. In the end, Scott City was able to take advantage of Colby errors to win 12-3 in game one, and complete the sweep in game two with an 11-5 victory.
Scott City 12, Colby 3, Game 1
Colby would score the first run of the game on a Chloe Imhoff single in the top of the first inning, that scored Paige Schroer to make it 1-0 Lady Eagles after a half an inning. In the bottom of the first, Scott City responded with a Macie Price two-run single that scored Lyndi Rumford and Kaitlyn Roberts to make 2-1 Lady Beavers. The scoring would subside until the bottom of the fourth inning, where the Scott City opened the game up. Kaitlyn Wolkensdorfer drove in Gabby Martinez on a groundout, followed by an RBI single by Bailey Latta, and a Colby error on a popup that scored two more runs to make it 6-1. The Lady Beavers scored two more runs in the bottom of the fifth to make it 8-1. Colby added two runs in the sixth, capped off by a Brielle Bange single that drove in Kennedy Stanley to cut the margin to 8-3. In the bottom of the sixth, Rumford led the inning off with a solo home run over the left field fence, her first of the year, as well as Scott City’s to push the lead to 9-3. The Lady Beavers added two more runs and held Colby scoreless to take the first game 12-3.
Scott City had 12 hits in the game, with four players collecting two hits each. Macie Price and Kaitlyn Wolkensdorfer had two RBI each. Kaitlyn Roberts got the win, going all seven innings, allowing three runs, one earned, on nine hits, and had six strikeouts. Colby’s Kamrie Miller went all six innings, allowing 12 runs, three earned, on 12 hits with three strikeouts. Paige Schroer and Chloe Imhof had two hits each for the Lady Eagles. Colby had six errors to Scott City’s three.
SC VS COLBY SB G1 4-27-17
Scott City 11, Colby 4, Game 2
The finale was full of errors for both sides, as few runs were earned combined. Colby scored two unearned runs in the first inning. Scott City answered back with two unearned runs of their own in the bottom of the first to tie the game at two. They added another run on passed ball, as Amanda Lara scored to make it 3-2. It would be the third inning where the Lady Beavers would put the hammer down. A six-run inning started with a Kaitlin Roberts single scoring Lyndi Rumford, a Kally Kough two-run single scoring Macie Price and Lara, a Shelby Patton single scoring Kough, and a Bailey Latta RBI triple scoring Patton to make it 9-2 Scott City. After a scoreless fourth, Colby got a sacrifice fly by Kennedy Stanley that scored Chloe Imhoff from third to pull to within 9-3. The Lady Beavers got a two-run single from Gabby Martinez that scored Roberts and Rumford to make the score 11-3. Colby added another run in the seventh on a Scott City error, as the Lady Beavers were able to complete the sweep.
Lyndi Rumford went all seven innings, allowing four runs, one earned, on four hits. Amanda Lara and Shelby Patton each had two hits, and Gabby Martinez and Kally Kough each drove in two runs for Scott City. Kamrie Miller took the loss for Colby, giving up 11 runs, only two earned, on nine hits. Four players had one hit for the Lady Eagles. Colby had 12 errors in game two, while the Lady Beavers had six.
SC VS COLBY SB G2 4-27-18
Scott City has now win six straight over Colby, and improved to 9-1 overall, 4-0 in GWAC play. They will have three doubleheaders on the road next week, starting with a trip to Ulysses on Tuesday. Colby dropped to 3-11 overall, 3-5 in GWAC play, and will face rival Goodland on Tuesday.

He’s big, he’s hot, and he’s very very miserable. Why Tortured Heroes are their own sub-genre for romance readers.
I just discovered that Goodreads has a tortured heroes section — two in fact. Popular Tortured Hero Books, and the Tortured Hero Shelf. Meanwhile, All About Romance has a Tortured Heroes page that began in 1996!
You’ll see a lot of repeat books/authors on these lists, with books I happen to lurv. Which leads me to suggest: aren’t tortured heroes their own romance sub-category/brand? I think so. Here are five top reasons why we love tortured heroes:
1) He’s Cursed. Curses suck. They can be painful, they can repeat daily/nightly/monthly — wherein the hero becomes the shameful opposite of what he wants to be. See Gena Showalter’s Lords of the Underworld series for variations on this. What you basically have here is male subjugation. It’s hot.
2) He’s Cursed–for All Eternity. The hero has gotta believe he’s in a mess he just…

Pro and anti government groups resume talks in bid to resolve Bahrain political crisis
Issued on: Modified:
Pro and anti-government groups in Bahrain have begun a new round of talks in a bid to resolve a political crisis that began two years ago this week. Opposition groups, including the major Shiite bloc Al-Wefaq, have called on the monarchy to hold direct elections. Negotiations have been stalled since July 2011, when the government held a similar round of dialogue that was mostly boycotted by opposition groups. RFI spoke to Reda Al-Fardan a Bahraini activist about their expectations.


The next 60 Starlink internet satellites are awaiting a ride from Cape Canaveral into space aboard a Falcon 9 rocket Tuesday night as SpaceX seeks regulatory authority to expand the network’s services from homes and offices to airplanes, ships, and trucks.
SpaceX test-fired a 229-foot-tall (70-meter) Falcon 9 rocket at 6 p.m. EST (2300 GMT) Monday on pad 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. Hold-down clamps held the launcher on the ground as the engines generated 1.7 million pounds of thrust for several seconds.
The static fire test was a key milestone before SpaceX proceeds with the launch of the Falcon 9 and 60 Starlink payloads at 9:58 p.m. EST Tuesday (0258 GMT Wednesday). SpaceX confirmed in a tweet Monday night that the launch remained on schedule.
The night-time rocket launch will add 60 more Starlink satellites to the ever-growing internet network, nudging it closer to full commercial service. The satellites are already providing internet service to consumers on a beta testing basis.
SpaceX has launched 1,205 Starlink satellites to date, including prototypes. More than 1,100 of the Starlink satellites appear to be functioning, discounting test spacecraft and failed satellites, according to a catalog maintained by Jonathan McDowell, an astronomer and widely-respected tracker of space activity.
The Starlink network could eventually number more than 10,000 satellites, but the first tranche of Starlinks will have 1,584 satellites orbiting 341 miles (550 kilometers) above Earth on paths tilted 53 degrees to the equator. SpaceX has approval from the Federal Communications Commission for around 12,000 Starlink satellites at a range of altitudes and inclinations, all within a few hundred miles of the planet. The low altitude enables the satellites to deliver high-speed, low-latency connectivity to customers, and helps ensure the spacecraft naturally re-enter the atmosphere faster than if they flew farther from Earth.
Starlink is already providing interim beta service across high latitude regions, such as the northern United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. More Starlink launches this year will enable an expanded coverage area.
SpaceX is accepting pre-orders from would-be Starlink consumers, who can pay $99 to reserve their place in line to get Starlink service when it becomes available in their area. For people in the southern United States and other lower-latitude regions, that should come by late 2021, SpaceX says.
Once confirmed, customers will pay $499 for a Starlink antenna and modem, plus $50 in shipping and handling, SpaceX says. A subscription will run $99 per month.
The launch Tuesday night will come less than six days after SpaceX’s most recent Falcon 9 launch, which also delivered 60 Starlink spacecraft to orbit from pad 39A at the Kennedy Space Center, a few miles to the north of pad 40. SpaceX uses both launch facilities on Florida’s Space Coast.
Another Falcon 9 launch from pad 39A — again carrying Starlink satellites — is scheduled for 5:06 a.m. EST (1006 GMT) Saturday.
The two-stage Falcon 9 rocket set for launch Tuesday night will head northeast from Cape Canaveral to deliver the 60 Starlinks to a preliminary transfer orbit between 161 miles and 174 miles (260 and 281 kilometers) in altitude, where the satellites will take over and boost themselves to their 341-mile-high operating orbit. The first stage will shut down and drop away from the Falcon 9’s upper stage about two-and-a-half minutes into the mission, and head for a vertical landing on SpaceX’s drone ship “Just Read the Instructions” parked in the Atlantic Ocean east of Charleston, South Carolina.
The first stage booster flying Tuesday has launched and landed on five previous missions, beginning with the launch last May of the Crew Dragon test flight with astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken. The payload fairing, which protects the Starlink satellites during the first few minutes of launch, includes one half recovered from two prior missions, and another half with one launch on its record.
Two additional SpaceX vessels were dispatched into the Atlantic Ocean to retrieve the payload fairing halves after Tuesday night’s launch.
The Starlink satellites are built by SpaceX in Redmond, Washington, and each spacecraft weighs about a quarter-ton at liftoff. They are fitted with power-generating solar array wings, krypton ion thrusters for propulsion, and visors to dim their brightness to people on the ground, a mitigation added to Starlink satellites last year after astronomers raised concerns the spacecraft would ruin some telescopic observations.
Amid SpaceX’s high-tempo launch cadence, the company is building out production of ground terminals, routers, and other equipment for shipment to Starlink customers. A job listing posted online last week suggested SpaceX plans a manufacturing center in Austin, Texas, to produce consumer-facing Starlink hardware.
SpaceX filed a request with the FCC on Friday for approval to deploy end-user stations it calls “Earth Stations in Motion,” or ESIMs. The mobile terminals would be mounted on land vehicles, ships, and airplanes, SpaceX said in the filing.
The mobile stations are “electrically identical” to the $499 terminals already authorized by the FCC for fixed consumers. The federal regulator previously issued a license for SpaceX to field up to a million end-user Earth stations designed for homes, businesses, schools, hospitals, and other types of customers.
The Starlink terminals designed for mobility have “mountings that allow them to be installed on vehicles, vessels, and aircraft,” SpaceX wrote in the filing with the FCC. The terminals will communicate with Starlink satellites visible above an elevation of 25 degrees in the sky.
Elon Musk, SpaceX’s founder and CEO, tweeted Monday that the mobile terminals won’t be used in smaller vehicles, such as Tesla cars, because “our terminal is much too big.”
“This is for aircraft, ships, large trucks & RVs,” Musk tweeted.

Somatic cell counts will vary depending on what sampling regime is used but this has been taken into account when calculating the somatic cell count in the Herd Test Report.
Why is there a variation?
The best indication of an udder's health is to analyse two milk samples within 24 hours. This is because afternoon samples will have higher concentrations of somatic cells than morning samples as there is a shorter interval between milkings.
The differences in somatic cell counts between different Herd Test sampling regimes are shown in the graph below:
Using somatic cell counts from the LabStrip and the Herd Test Report
For Single Test clients, the LabStrip will report on the actual somatic cells within the milk sample and the Herd Test Report will calculate a 24-hour somatic cell count. Unless a cow's SCC is extremely high, it is best to wait for the HT1 report to make mastitis treatment decisions, as this will give a better picture of actual health of the cow's udder.
How is the Somatic Cell Count calculated?
Because the variation in somatic cell counts is consistent right throughout the lactation it is very easy to calculate a 24-hour SCC when a farmer uses Single Test. This calculation will adjust the SCC score taking into account the sampling regime, the age of the cow and the stage of lactation (the days in milk).

Hey Police Lt. Joe Schroeder – what happened to you? Did you not get something for Christmas one year and now you’re bucking to be the nation’s ultimate Scrooge?
I am all for logical law enforcement and making people follow the rules. But this is just crazy…
Here’s the story, courtesy of UPI – and a link to the story itself: http://www.upi.com/Odd_News/2012/12/13/Xmas-lights-on-truck-yield-274-ticket/UPI-86461355437406/
WICHITA, Kan., Dec. 13 (UPI) — A Kansas man given a $274 citation for decking his pickup truck out in Christmas lights said his illuminated vehicle has been spreading holiday cheer.
David Hill of Wichita, founder of the group OneSpark, which aims to feed and clothe the homeless, said he spent 16 hours covering his truck in Christmas lights and hooking them to a generator in the bed of the vehicle, KAKE-TV, Wichita, reported Thursday.
Hill said he was surprised when he was pulled over two weeks ago on the highway and fined $274 for his light display.
“I’m not saying he was right or wrong,” Hill said of the ticketing officer. “The bottom line is there’s so many people in this town right now that are hurting. And literally, there’s been thousands of people that have taken pictures with that truck and it’s brought a smile to their face.”
Hill said he will leave the lights on his truck to spread Christmas cheer and bring attention to his organization’s charitable efforts.
Police Lt. Joe Schroeder said the lights could prove a dangerous distraction for other drivers.
“When you take a vehicle and you cover it with that many lights, it’s an issue of safety,” Schroeder said. “You’re going to get the rubberneckers who are going to be staring at the vehicle. They’re going to have a collision or rear end somebody because they’re too busy looking at this car that’s driving down the road.”
Whether you find the Kansas guy name David Hill a nut or not, you have to admire his efforts. He has reportedly started a group to feed and clothe the homeless and as part of his efforts he decided to go crazy and decorate the heck out of a pickup truck.
He has tons of lights on the truck and they’re connected to a generator. Hill says that his town has had a lot of suffering lately and that his truck has brought smiles to the faces of the residents. Some have even taken pictures with it.
So what does Lt. Schroeder do? He stops him and gives him a $274 citation. His logic is that the truck will cause such a distraction that it could cause accidents, etc.
Does anyone really believe that will happen? I sure don’t. And frankly – as cynical as I am sometimes – that the guy is doing it partly for the attention of it all and hopefully to really raise money or gather food for those in need.
So what is the real reason for a $274 citation? Beats me.
Hey, Lt. Schroeder, here’s a suggestion: instead of giving the guy a ticket, just tell him to unplug the lights…
Hey, ‘tis the season, right?
Apparently not in Wichita, Kansas.
