So the bible now takes priority over english law. This is a black day for democracy, never mind gay equality.
It will set a dangerous precendent, and should be resisted. She is not marrying people in the eyes of god but in the eyes of the state and she should either leave her superstition at the door or find a job she can do properly.
If you are not careful you will end up with the same situation we have in the netherlands, where the only requirement is that in each district, thee be at least one registrar who can perform gay marriages…..
If you read the whole judgement (on the Christian Institute website at http://www.christian.org.uk/ladelejudgment.pdf which bankrolled her claim) it provides interesting reading about her beliefs on matrimony. It seems she was allowed to state those without being asked to square them with the day to day practicality of marrying divorcees, adulterers and non-believers. I should think that Islington Council would have a very strong case for an appeal if this dichotomy between of Ladele’s beliefs as a fundamentalist Christian and practice as a secular registrar was not explored. And even if it was, I imagine that there could be criticism of the three judges unanimous verdict that they did not think it displayed a complete failure in Ladele’s logic, not to say underlying homophobic reasons. What she was arguing for was not “Chritsian’ marriage per se but heterosexual partnerships only. That is quite another matter. Go for it Islington!
The bible has been in existence longer than modern day English law. She probably was doing this job before the civil partnership law came into effect. At the end of the day no one has a right to make someone do anything against their will wether you agree of disagree with their opinions or beliefs.
I feel that the registrar concerned probably did feel intimidated by other members of staff for her personal beliefs and I take a dim view of any harrasment on these ground no matter how repugnant a belief may see. However, I think its totally unacceptable to refuse to undertake a statutory duty on behalf of the state on any grounds. If a registrar refuses to provide services to a member of the public citing moral justifications, he/she rightly should be relieved from their duties. What other areas will this particular registrar refuse service, registration of a birth involving two Lesbians? I am outraged that our well respected registration service should be dirtied by the unprofessional few, after all this position of respect and trust should carry with it impartiality.
Does the ruling just say that she was bullied etc, or that she doesn’t have to officiate at civil partnerships in the ruling? If she was bullied, then that was also wrong, but it cannot be correct that she can choose (as a public sevant) who to serve!!
Why is a Christian happy to perform a CIVIL marriage?
Has this person ever performed a marriage for DIVORCED people? Re-marriage in Christianity is an absolute no no, on a par with ADULTERY.
Her religious beliefs, no doubt, are strictly limited to opposing civil partnerships.
It may seem inoffensive enough to work round this, and swap duties round. But what about small local offices, in the case where all registrars had objections to civil partnerships? The council would have to employ another registrar to do that, and waste more money!
The only sensible case is a clear ruling (which we sort of got in the case of that christian magistrate who wanted to opt out of some cases) that certain jobs (magistrate, registrar etc) have legal responsibilities and legal force atteched, and that a condition of that job and having that legal status is that the person administers the whole of the law, without prejudice. So, magistrates take on cases for gay and straight adoption, and don’t get to chose, and registrars do civil weddings for all, and civil partnerships for all. If you don’t want to do that because of your personal beliefs, then that job is not for you. If that means some registrars resign, so be it! Equal provision of goods and services has to mean just that, with all relevant employees applying the same. What else might we have if the religious right get away wit this? We could have office staff refusing to handle enquiries for civil partnerships, or the paperwork, and be reduced to having a special civil partnerships sub-office.
Gino Meriano Founder of Pink Weddings and gay rights campaigner for same sex families says “this is an outrage. It’s not about bullying or religious beliefs it’s about bringing the church into statutory duties, if Miss Ladele had such a problem with performing Civil Partnerships because of her faith and with the move in modern times and the inclusion of the Civil Partnership Act then the natural course of action would have been to resign and join a church as a celebrant. The process is very clear and the courts have made a bad judgement and may well cause a major problem across the UK in ruling such a ridiculous conclusion. This must be contested and further action taken.
In the Ladele Registrar case it seems Ms Ladele gave an account of Christian marriage which she believes in and which she cannot compromise…and which she applies. This was given in evidence to the tribunal, i.e that marriage is between a man and a woman (presumably baptised), it is for ever (allowing no divorce) and forsaking all others (adulterers and people living ‘in sin’ need not apply). Isn’t it strange then that no one seems to have noticed Ms Ladele seems not to have ruled out performing civil marriage for anyone legally qualified though religiously they may not be. Does she even enquire? No, what the case shows that she was happy to register ALL heterosexual partnerships (whether they fulfilled the conditions for Christian marriage or not ) but not homosexual ones shows that this is not a case of religious freedom so much as a case for religious bigotry. If she were truly religious surely she would be able to bring herself to perform civil marriage in a large number of cases either.
I certainly hope Islington Council appeals because on reading the transcript of their judgment it seems the three members of the tribunal did not question Ms Ladele closely enough on this obvious anomaly.
Here in the States, an Ethiopian Muslim immigrant taxi driver was not allowed to discriminate against persons he thought had some association with alcohol. This employment tribunal has let the nose of religious extremism into the tent.
Christian bigotry over rules again, ‘SHE’ calls herself a ‘christian’ yet she is discriminating against other sexes/people?! How many of the the ‘HETROSEXUAL’ people are christians for a start, how many are on their 2nd or 3rd marriage (against christian beliefs?) and how many will last past a year or two?!!
She has a right to her beliefs and views but as a government offical she has her job then at stake. She can choose to say no but then her employeer then has to ask is this fair is this right is this within the law. She should step down. In the states we had a state offical step down because he would not lower the flags for the late Sen Jesse Helms. His response was how can I honor anyone who has chosen to lead in discrimination and bigotry. She should step down if she does not agree.
Why should she have to give up her livelihood, the thing that keeps a roof over her head and food on her table? If we want equality for gay people, we should want it for everyone and part of this should be the right not to be asked to do something which is against your faith. 20 years ago (or so) someone who wanted to be a soldier and be openly gay had to choose, you say this is wrong, so if it’s wrong for someone to have to choose between being gay and being a soldier, it’s also wrong that someone should have to choose between being a Christian and being a registrar. And lets face it, the majority of the population isn’t Christian and would be happy to marry a gay couple so it’s not going to affect provision of services.
Also a few people have said this could affect the provision of other services- no it couldn’t, whilst the bible condemns the act of homosexual sex (note it’s the act of sex that is condemned not the feeling of being in love with someone of the same gender) it does not condone discrimination, but says that a Christian should care for and love everyone- so there would be no biblical grounds for denying things such as medical care to gay people. In addition someone has argued it opens the door for people to have moral arguments against al sorts of things, for example mixed race marriages, again not true, there’s clear biblical instruction, understood and recognised by the majority of the mainstream Christian churches against homosexual partnerships, there is no such ruling in the bible (or the Torah or the Koran) against mixed race marriages so someone would have a hard job convincing a tribunal that it was against their religious beliefs. Christianity has clear rules and s concrete moral code (whether you agree with it or not) so nobody could just convince a tribunal that some arbitrary act was a problem from a religious point of view.
If you want Christians (and lets not leave out Jews and Muslims too) to respect you and tolerate your lifestyle (which is as unacceptable to them as theirs is to you) then you need to afford them the same respect and tolerance.
Oh and also, there is no biblical code that says you have to be a Christian to be married so no religious reason why she wouldn’t want to marry a non-Christian couple, and as for adulterers divorcees etc I think that she would probably say that when they are getting married they are promising to be faithful and stay married for ever, they have no intent to “sin”, in fact the opposite, their marriage is a declaration that (whatever their history) from now on they are going to be faithful to one another alone, something God would be in favour of. In contrast, from a Christian point of view, a gay marriage is a declaration that someone is going to remain in a relationship with someone of the same gender for the rest of their life, and is in effect a celebration of something God wouldn’t be in favour of. SO there is a difference which I am sure the tribunal judges would have understood.
Gee I bet you all hate me now. But the whole argument isn’t really about who is right, the gay rights or the Christian rights person, but it’s really about whether we can co-exist. I think that with a bit of love and acceptance on both sides we can.
I see this as a clar case of homophobia on the part of those judges. In the job she was doing this woman was under an obligation to carry out the law of the land by officiating at Civil Partnerships, for which her own personal religious beliefs were of no consequence at all. If she objected so much on these grounds then she should have done the decent thing and resigned from the job. This is outrageous – a total disgrace. It’s sheer homophobia at work, nothing less.
It’s no more homophobia than your view is “anti-Christian” If you had a career that you’d had for 16 years and that paid you a good salary but your boss suddenly said that as part of your job you had to go to church on a Sunday and publicly advocate the views of Christianity – including it’s stance on homosexuality would you “do the decent thing and resign” or would you say “no it’s absolutely wrong that I’m being made to stand for something that goes against my own ethical code and I shouldn’t lose my job because I’m not prepared to do so”
For years gay rights protesters have called those against homosexuality “narrow minded” but you’re being narrow minded now, accept that people have differing views on what’s right and wrong, she feels as strongly about her views as you do about yours- just try to put yourself in her shoes, and get a practical grip on how we deal with our differences as a society. People are getting fed up of political correctness and this is creating a lot of bad feeling and even violence in the UK, and one of the reasons for this is reactions like that above. This woman did nothing homophobic at all and this kind of over-reaction just makes people roll their eyes at the word “homophobic” and not take real cases of discrimination seriously. For years she worked alongside gay people, she didn’t insult or offend her gay colleagues (in fact I believe she actually became the victim of bullying herself) and didn’t do anything to discriminate against them, she simply refused to participate in something she disagreed with. Disagreeing with your view does not make someone homophobic, it just makes them different to you.
Most Christians, including this lady from what I understand, respect the free will God has given people to choose how they want to live their lives, and this means that most Christians respect the rights of gay people including their right to enter into a civil partnership. But there is a vast difference between respecting someones rights to a civil partnership and actively participating in that partnership. The world is a big place and there’s room for all of us, there’s no reason why Gay people in Islington (or wherever it was) couldn’t enjoy their freedom to legally bind their partnership and this lady enjoy her freedom to continue her job whilst being obedient to her God.
You can’t say “her religious beliefs were of no consequence at all” to say this shows you have no concept of what a religion is. A religion is a way of life, to say someone shouldn’t take their religious beliefs to work is akin to saying they shouldn’t take their arms to work. If you believe in something it’s of consequence to everything you do, including your work.
So comments are edited or is this blatant censorship?

Among Us 2 sequel is cancelled thanks to the current game's popularity
By now, you would have seen a lot of memes about Among Us online. This game was actually out for a few months already but it has bloomed into popularity thanks to streamers. So with this success, Innersloth, the makers of Among Us has just posted a new update regarding the game's future.
According to the developers, they were already planning to work on Among Us 2 because the current game codebase is pretty outdated and not designed to support new content add ons. Since so many people are enjoying Among Us, they have decided to cancel Among Us 2 and put all their resources to improve Among Us instead. In other words, all the blueprints for Among Us 2 are heading to Among Us!
So that's pretty good news for us gamers, however it won't be an easy task for them because they have to go deep into the codebase and rework the system. Nonetheless, we are excited, they are excited, and this is exciting news for the future of Among Us. Besides that, there are a couple of things they want to update which are Servers, Colourblind support, Friends/Account System, and a new map!
Among Us is available to download and play on Steam, Android and iOS, and it is free to play on your mobile. Also, we talked about this in our favourite (and worst) games to play before going back to the office, so do check it out while you're at it. Stay tuned for more trending tech news at TechNave.com.

Flooding is widely believed to be the most common natural disaster in Europe, and the changing climatic conditions are estimated to increase its adverse impacts. Effective flood strategies require thorough consideration of the factors underlying the flood generation mechanism and a widened display of mitigation priorities for spatially exhaustive assessments. Flood potential maps generated herein for indicating potential flood areas prove to be among powerful tools for comprehensive flood assessments. In the presented study, a countrywide characterization is achieved in this context by analyzing catchment units, which constitute the river basin systems in Turkey, through a series of spatial indices adapted from different factors effective in flood generation. The study aims to contribute to depicting priorities for in-depth flood assessments and to the re-orientation of subsequent control measures. The flood potential maps obtained for river catchments and designating individual locations with comparably higher flood potentials are expected to set light to the selection of case studies for local flood research in Turkey while contributing to decision making and policy implementation on flood control at the macroscale.

Drag Reducing Agents
Drag reducers – also known as Drag Reducing Agents, DRAs and Flow Improvers -- are any material that reduces frictional pressure during fluid flow in a conduit or pipeline. Using DRAs allows increased flow using the same amount of energy or decreased pressure drop for the same flow rate of fluid in pipelines. The current class of DRAs, such as Lubrizol Specialty Products Inc.(LSPI) range of LiquidPower™ Flow Improver products, consist of long-chain hydrocarbon polymers that act as buffers along the pipe wall to decrease the amount of energy lost in turbulent formation.. Nalco and LSPI work together to identify applications of DRA in select regions of the world.

For too long, many have looked upon storage as a business necessity rather than something that can drive competitive edge. Over recent years, however, that perception has started to change. Those that fail to correctly invest in storage or modernise their data centres, risk losing out in the long-term, as their rivals become better-equipped to deal with the growing number of IT challenges they’re posed with.
It is this context that helps to explain why, according to IDC (1) hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) systems are the fastest growing segment in the converged or integrated systems market. The shift to a new approach to data centre infrastructure is fuelled by shrinking or static budgets and overloaded IT teams, all while demands from the business and requests from end users to IT keeps increasing. And that’s where new advances in virtual storage come in.
Virtual storage has proven itself to be the very bedrock upon which modern competitive advantage can be built. It helps an organisation to prepare for tomorrow’s dynamic business, supporting the need for an always on mind set, increased security and the demand to provide a return-on-investment (ROI). Without it, organisations could find themselves falling behind, something I would like to explore in a little further depth.
Ensuring business continuity
Business continuity is something many organisations take for granted but it can very easily become an issue when attempting to digitally transform the business. As organisations deploy multiple data centres, a break between the two locations can occur, meaning a backup from one site is required to continue. Stretched clustering offered by virtual storage solutions, help to address this issue across multiple data centres. If one site ever goes down, a second can carry on completely uninterrupted while intelligently creating and keeping a back-up of data while it works.
Danish grocery story Coop benefitted directly from this. After moving all its servers onto one single physical server platform, the retailer soon had an issue on its hands. Every Thursday at 12pm for two minutes all its systems would shut down entirely. It took several weeks to realise that the issue resulted from its anti-virus system, which would download a new pattern definition file at the same time, onto all 1 300 servers, effectively shutting down the whole infrastructure – the retailer was effectively at a standstill as transactions could not be processed. This led to the expensive move of moving some systems onto separate storage platforms.
After Coop deployed VMWare’s virtual storage platform, vSAN, it could guarantee business continuity. The enhanced performance of virtualised storage meant that despite the anti-virus system continuing to download the pattern definition file, it did not affect the system performance at all It also meant that the retailer could rely on vSAN as the single solution for its storage needs, making it a cost-effective choice.
This is part of the reason why software-defined storage today underpins every business process for Coop all the way from the tills in the stores, through to the provisioning of goods from the warehouses and all headquarter processes.

Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers suggest some sad news for fans of Gabi Hernandez as the actress Camils Banus recently announced she was leaving the soap opera. While this won’t affect storylines until the fall as the daytime drama films about six months ahead of broadcast, this doesn’t mean that fans can’t speculate on how (and if) she’ll exit the canvas.
Days Of Our Lives Spoilers – Should Fans Feel Hopeful For A Recast?
DOOL spoilers suggest that Stabi’s reunion might be short-lived if Banus is exiting soon. But can fans hope for a recast? Just because the actress is leaving Salem, doesn’t necessarily mean the character has to go, too. From Roman Brady (Josh Taylor) to Abigail Deveraux (Marci Miller), Jennifer Horton (Cady McClain), and many others, including Stefan DiMera (Brandon Barash); the daytime drama is never above recasting roles. In fact, there are very few soap opera roles out there currently that “cannot” be recast at this point. So, could fans simply get a different version of Gabi than they’ve been used to in the past?
DOOL Spoilers – No One Ever Really “Leaves” Salem, Right?
Then again, Gabi could exit storylines in a non-dramatic type of way. Maybe she simply wants to head to New Zealand to visit with WilSon and Ari Horton (Lane Rosa), only to realize just how much she misses her daughter and chooses to stay. There’s also the chance she could decide to move to Europe to pursue a career dream or something along those lines.
Still, this is the land of Salem, and Gabi’s always been an overdramatic character. Does she get shot, as Stefan did when he first “died” on the soap? With Vivian Alamain (Louise Sorel) returning, perhaps she’s the one who is at the helm of Ms. Hernandez’s death. Then again, maybe Gabi dies trying to save Stefan and dies in the process. The opportunities for a massive “blaze of glory” exit, or limitless.
How will Camil Banus exit storylines? Share your thoughts in the comment section! Make sure to catch DOOL on Peacock daily to see just how Gabi will leave Salem and visit this site for the best Days news and spoilers.


Ohio-based Honda of America Mfg. Inc. will discontinue production of motorcycles in spring 2009 as part of a global strategy that will focus the company on its leader role in Honda's North American automobile operations.
The 450 Marysville Motorcycle Plant employees will remain key members of the Honda of America team that produces cars, light trucks, engines, and major components in Ohio. There will be no layoffs.
The move reflects a global Honda strategy for production of certain larger motorcycles. All motorcycle production from the Marysville Motorcycle Plant and the historic Hamamatsu Factory in Japan will be consolidated in 2009 at a new motorcycle plant in Kumamoto, Japan. The new plant will serve as Honda's global leader with advanced motorcycle production technologies. Both the Marysville and Hamamatsu plants produce medium- to large-size motorcycles.
"Our goal is always to achieve outstanding customer satisfaction," said Akio Hamada, president and CEO of Honda of America. "This move allows us to improve the competitiveness and appeal of our products by applying the latest technologies and production systems at one efficient location."
"This was a complex decision tied to the important role that Honda in Ohio plays within our North American automobile operations" Hamada said. "We will focus our associates' abilities on our goal to produce cars, light trucks and engines in Ohio that are of the highest quality and value for our customers."
Honda of America set a company record for auto production in 2007 with the manufacture of 701,317 passenger cars and light trucks at its two Ohio assembly plants.
The diverse and challenging roster of vehicles produced in Ohio includes...

Ligue 1 round-up
Montpellier reduced the deficit at the top after winning away to Boulogne as leaders Bordeaux lost.
By Jamie Casey
Last Updated: 06/02/10 10:25pm
Montpellier reduced the deficit at the top of Ligue 1 after winning away to Boulogne while leaders Bordeaux slipped up at Rennes.
The champions went down 4-2 at Route de Lorient and at one stage found themselves three goals behind through strikes from Sylvain Marveux, Jimmy Briand and Ismael Bangoura.
Yoan Gouffran and Brazilian substitute Wendel threatened a comeback from Bordeaux, but Ghana international Asamoah Gyan restored comfort for the home side with 12 minutes remaining.
Earlier in the day, title chasers Montpellier grabbed a 2-0 win over relegation candidates Boulogne with a goal in either half from Souleymane Camara and Victor Hugo Montano.
Lille missed the chance to also close the gap on Laurent Blanc's side as they were held to a 1-1 draw with lowly Nice.
Nice took the lead early through Chaouki Ben Saada before substitute Vinicius De Melo spared the away side's blushes with a 74th minute equaliser.
One of the biggest shocks of the day came at Stade del Alpes where basement club Grenoble thumped Europe-chasing Auxerre 5-0.
A brace apiece from Japanese midfielder Daisuke Matsui and veteran striker Nassim Akrour ensured an emphatic win after Danijel Ljuboja had opened the scoring after just seven minutes.
Lorient ensured Paris St Germain's miserable season continued as they triumphed 3-0 at the Parc des Princes.
The goals all came in an explosive 13 minute spell in the first half as Marama Vahirua, Kevin Gameiro and Morgan Amalfitano condemned the home side to their 10th defeat of the season.
Mid-table duo Sochaux and Nancy played out a 1-1 draw at Aguste-Bonal to remain in 13th and 12th position, respectively.
Issiar Dia gave the away side the lead but former Tottenham midfielder Stephane Dalmat evened up the contest early in the second period.
Meanwhile, RC Lens pulled further away from the relegation zone as they inflicted defeat upon Le Mans, who now lie four points from safety.

Begin with a snack of a half-dozen oysters on the half-shell before moving on to shrimp ceviche or maybe a tostada with pulpo— Spanish for octopus. For entrees, the shrimp house specialties here are your best bet. Try the shrimp a la diabla (a fiery chile sauce), or order it with mojo de ajo (a garlic sauce), mantequilla (melted butter) or ranchero sauce. There’s also whole fried tilapia, and soups, like the tasty crawfish, available, plus a good selection of imported Mexican beers.

Who is at risk?
The Social Services and Well-Being (Wales) Act 2014 states that an "adult at risk", is an adult who:
- is experiencing or is at risk of abuse or neglect,
- has needs for care and support (whether or not the authority is meeting any of those needs), and
- as a result of those needs is unable to protect himself or herself against the abuse or neglect or the risk of it.
This definition may include a person who:
- has learning disabilities;
- has mental health problems, including dementia;
- is an older person with support/care needs;
- is physically frail or has a chronic illness;
- has a physical or sensory disability;
- misuses drugs or alcohol;
- has an autistic spectrum disorder.
A person's vulnerability will depend on his/her circumstances. There are many predisposing factors which may increase the likelihood of abuse occurring.
Some factors may increase vulnerability to abuse:
- Social isolation - those who are abused usually have fewer social contacts than those who are not abused.
- The person has an illness such as dementia which may affect his or her intellect, memory or physical functions and cause unpredictable psychological or physical behaviour.
- The person is compliant and may not know that they are being abused or exploited, eg, some people with learning disabilities.
- The person has communication difficulties as a result of hearing, visual or speech difficulties. They cannot disclose verbally.
- The person will not be believed if they disclose.
- The person has behavioural problems or major changes in personality which result in repetitive behaviour, wandering or aggression.
- The person demands or needs a level of care beyond the capacity of the carer.
If you have concerns about an adult at risk, you can report an adult at risk here.

The Silver Marten rabbit breed is stiff competition at Rabbit shows and most of them are breeding to compete on the Rabbit show circuit.
These beautiful rabbits are intelligent and have an excellent nature and are easy to train. They are such fun little characters to keep as pets and are outstanding companion rabbits for the elderly and young alike.
BREED PROFILE OVERVIEW
|Country of Origin:
|United States of America
|Fur, meat, pet, and exhibition
Female/Doe: 6 to 8 lbs.
Male/Buck: 6 to 8 lbs.
|Black-silver, blue-silver, sable-silver, and chocolate-silver
They have a medium sized body that is slim and has a hare-type body type. They look like they are constantly on the alert.
Their faces are a small wedge-shape with medium length ears that do not touch in the center of the head and a bit of space between them.
Their fur is soft to the touch and has a beautiful glossy polished look about it.
|They are quite a timid rabbit breed and not recommended for children but if they are raised right, they are bundles of fun and can be very loving pets.
- They have a decent sized litter and the females make very good mothers. Most rabbits have good maternal instincts and some breeds can be a bit testy and protective when they have young. They can also be uncharacteristically moody during mating season.
- Their young open their eyes around 7 to 14 days with an average of 10 days after birth. When their eyes have opened, they can start to be introduced to food such as alfa pellets and water.
- Even when the young start to eat it does not mean they are quite ready to be weaned from their mothers. The mothers will know when it is time to wean her young. It is important for the baby rabbit’s health, growth, immune system and development of a proper digestive system that they do not be removed from their mother for at least 8 weeks. They usually require her milk for a minimum of 8 weeks after birth.
- Their average lifespan is 5 to 8 years although there have been some breeds that have lived to 10 years with the proper care.
|They can make very good pets and are recommend as companions for seniors, families with older children and first-time rabbit owners/breeders.
They are good as both an outdoor and indoor pet rabbit.
|Children should be supervised around animals and properly taught how to look after them and handle them. Rabbits can bite and scratch
|All climates – rabbits should never be left outside without proper shelter and housing that must be raised off the ground and predator safe.
|Not Listed by the *ALC
Status/Rarity: Not listed by the American Livestock Conservancy
|Recognized by the ARBA?
|Yes, there are a few color varieties that are accepted by the American Rabbit Breeders Association. These colors can be found under the Color section of this article. The breed was first accepted in 1924 with the Black and Silver variety. The Black and Chocolate Variety was accepted in 1927, the Blue and Silver variety in 1933 and the Sable variety was accepted in 1993.
|Unclear please check with the American Rabbit Breeders Association
|Where to buy them?
|Please check with the American Rabbit Breeders Association for more information of the breed another useful resource would be the American Rabbit Breeders Directory.
|Note: *ALC stands for American Livestock Conservancy
For a slicker more glossy or shiny pelt, it is advisable to groom them every two to three weeks. During the molting season, it is advisable to groom rabbits every week to remove stray hairs.
Rabbits can be quite lively and energetic and need quite a bit of exercise and stimulation. It is a good idea to have a nice safe and secure run for them to play in and stretch their legs.
Toys, tubes and various obstacle courses for them is a good way to help them expend some of their energy and they are really fun to watch at play.
They are also sociable animals that do like to have a friend or two to play with.
Regular health and critter check once a week or every second week should become a habit. This will help to keep your rabbit(s) in excellent condition and health. Grooming does not require a lot if their coats are low maintenance. But it is a good idea to give them a nice gentle brushing to help remove any excess hairs regardless of the length of their coats.
It is also a good idea to check on the state of their teeth to ensure that they are not too long and causing the rabbit any discomfort.
Rabbits teeth never stop growing and getting fresh hay on a regular basis helps to control the growth of their teeth.
Rabbits need a good diet of quality pellets that are filled with their daily nutritional requirements. They do love dandelions, cabbage and various fruits as a nice tasty treat.
Rabbits that have quite a short coat are not really at risk for most of the digestive problems long fur seem to cause rabbits. They can still get other ailments such as flystrike, ear mites or overgrown teeth. These can all be controlled/maintained or avoided altogether with the proper health and grooming care of the rabbit(s).
If you have two rabbits and do not want to breed them it is possible to spay female rabbits and neuter male rabbits.
The females can be spayed as young as four months old, but vets prefer to wait until they are at least six months old before doing so.
The young males can be neutered as young as found months old.
Rabbits, just like any other pet, should be dewormed on a regular basis. Check with your local vet for proper guidance on the administering of worm medication to your animals.
In order to improve on the color of the Chinchilla rabbit breed, early rabbit breeders went about crossing breeds with the Chinchilla to try and introduce more pattern and color to the breed. They started off with trying to introduce black and tan bloodlines.
However, the offspring were black “sports” and the description that followed them was “strange little black rabbits”. The oddities from these offspring bred true and in 1924 the Silver Marten breed was accepted and recognized as its own new breed of rabbit.
A working standard was passed for the Silver Marten black and chocolate breed in 1927 and soon thereafter the first Silver Marten Rabbit Club was founded. In 1933 the Blue Silver Marten Rabbit Variety was accepted and in 1993 the Sable variety of the breed was recognized.

A REALITY TV star from The Only Way Is Essex popped into a barber shop in Solihull for a fresh trim before jetting off to Marbella to film the next series.
Dan Edgar, who joined ITVBe’s reality show last year, stopped off at Kings Barbers Club on Solihull High Street on September 22.
Shelley, one of the senior stylists, was in charge of cutting and tidying up the star’s signature hairstyle.
Speaking to The Observer, stylist Chris Dew said: “He was such a humble guy – it was a pleasure.
“As he has never been to Solihull before, he was quick to ask a lot of questions about the area and seemed very impressed.
“He has a very iconic style and didn’t want the traditional back and sides which most of our customers ask for.”
The 26-year-old, who is notorious for his way with the ladies, was said to be extremely happy with his cut and was looking forward to heading out to Spain to start filming.
But Dan isn’t the only celebrity who has stepped foot in the Solihull barbers.
The team of barbers also claim they have set the clippers on a long-list of footballers who often stop off for a cut.

Re: no sound out of subwoofer
Connection from receiver subwoofer output jack RCA plug male go into your powered subwoofer low level input with other end of cable, then you need to select Subwoofer YES/NO on the JVC receiver speaker setup menu option, select YES if this is a powered subwoofer you are using, should power up the subwoofer, may have to adjust a test tone balance for multi speaker output also, try trimming up on the subwoofer channel to initiate the signal on if the sub has an auto-on feature.

The impedance of your system is important and connecting the wrong way or wrong impedance can do server damage, also wiring the wrong way round oddly will cancel certain sounds with each other, always check wattage impedance and polarity, good look
do have sound and picture at same time you will need a fibre optical cable, you connect that from your cinema system to your tv. then you need to set your cinema system to digital input or fibre optic or check by pressing aux on your remote and see which is the right one. i am not familier with panasonic as i have samasung.
Ok, the Audio can only be transfered to the HT if it is connected via something other than the HDMI, (the HDMI is just 1 way accept for the Anynet function (which is great with the 6 series. I have the LE52-A656))
The audio can be transfered via component cables but you will get the best out of your system using an optical cable. The main reason for optical is it ability to transfer 5.1. Only problem is the Samsung does not output 5.1!! bugger!! one you have connected it via the optical too. just set the HT to D-IN and you should be goo to go! :) There maybe something i have missed but Im at work at the mo but let me know how you get on :)
Its your wire connection problem. Plz check that all the wires are connected to specific location. If wiares are ok then it might be internal circuit error! that should be repaired at authorised service stations.
i have the same problem. haven't tried the fix yet, but someone recommend connecting the two pronged power cord to an adapter that switches it to a 3 pronged (adds the ground prong). i guess the adapters are less than a dollar and can be bought at most places.
well u cannot hook almost any devices with the SC-HT500.
I have this homecinema system for 5 years now, and i had to buy another stand alone DivX player to hook it up, but can't get the sound in dolby from the standalone player since the panasonic SC-HT500 has only 2 analog stereo RCA ports (audio in) in the back and a scart (A/V out) and component video (Video out).
At that time it was a very good system, but since i have bought a Full HD LCD tv with 1080p capabilities, I realised that my home cinema system i.e the Panasonic SC-HT500 is kind of useless, in the sense that you cannot even change the player for another one since the whole spaker and power connections are made trhough a special cable from the subwoofer. :(
best solution is that put the system back in a corner and get a new system which is not an all-in-one system. Preferrable get home cinema systems that come with a receiver, separate dvd player and speakers and subwoofer hooked to the receiver.
you asked how to hook these devices to your tv,, well the panasonic dvd recorder is better if you connect it via HDMI cable if you can. In the other case, connecting them with a scart cable would be another solution.

In the United States, there is no set amount of time that a person can be held in jail without bond. This decision is up to the judge presiding over the case, and is based on many factors, including the severity of the crime, the person's criminal history, and whether or not the person is a flight risk.
If the judge believes that the person is a danger to the community or is likely to flee before their trial, they may order that the person be held without bond. This means that the person will remain in jail until their trial, which can be months or even years.
In some cases, the person may be able to post bond, which is money that is paid to the court in order to secure their release. The amount of bond is set by the judge, and is based on the same factors as the decision to hold someone without bond.
If the person is unable to post bond, they will remain in jail until their trial. This can be a very difficult situation for the person, as they will be away from their family and friends, and will have to wait in a small cell for their day in court.
The length of time that a person can be held in jail without bond is decided by the judge on a case-by-case basis. There is no set amount of time, and the decision is based on many different factors.
How is the amount of bond determined?
Bail is the amount of money or other form of security deposited or pledged to a court to persuade it to release a suspect from custody and ensure their appearance at trial. The amount of bail is typically determined by a judge or magistrate, although in some jurisdictions it may be set by statute.
The amount of bail is intended to reflect the seriousness of the charges, the likelihood of the defendant fleeing, and the danger they pose to the community. In most jurisdictions, bail may be paid in cash or by posting a bail bond, which is a type of surety bond. Bail may also be refused if the defendant is deemed to be a flight risk or a danger to the community.
When setting bail, a judge or magistrate must take into account a number of factors, including the severity of the offense, the likelihood of the defendant fleeing, and the danger they pose to the community. In most jurisdictions, the amount of bail is set by statute.
In some jurisdictions, bail may be paid in cash or by posting a bail bond. A bail bond is a type of surety bond, typically issued by a bail bond agent, that is used to secure the release of a defendant from custody. The bail bond agent typically charges a fee, which is usually a percentage of the total bail amount, for posting the bond.
If the defendant fails to appear for their court date, the bail bond agent may be required to pay the full bail amount to the court. The defendant may also be subject to a forfeiture of the bond, and may be required to pay damages to the victim of the crime.
In some jurisdictions, the amount of bail may be set by statute. In these cases, the amount of bail is typically based on the severity of the offense and the likelihood of the defendant fleeing.
In most jurisdictions, the amount of bail is intended to reflect the seriousness of the charges, the likelihood of the defendant fleeing, and the danger they pose to the community. In setting bail, a judge or magistrate must take into account a number of factors, including the severity of the offense, the likelihood of the defendant fleeing, and the danger they pose to the community.
What are the conditions of release on bond?
If you are charged with a crime, a judge will decide whether to set a bond. The purpose of a bond is to make sure that the defendant returns to court. The amount of the bond is based on the severity of the crime, the defendant's criminal history, and the strength of the defendant's ties to the community. If the defendant is deemed to be a flight risk, the judge may set a high bond or deny bond altogether.
If the judge sets a bond, the defendant must post the bond in order to be released from jail. The defendant may post the bond themselves, or they may use a bail bondsman. If the defendant posts the bond themselves, they will get the money back after the case is over, as long as they show up for all of their court appearances. If the defendant uses a bail bondsman, they will have to pay a non-refundable fee, usually 10% of the total bond amount.
If the defendant fails to appear in court, the court will issue a warrant for their arrest. If the defendant is arrested on the warrant, they will be held in jail until their next court appearance. If the defendant posted a bond, the court will keep the bond money. If the defendant used a bail bondsman, the bail bondsman will be responsible for finding the defendant and returning them to court.
If you are released on bond, you will likely have to comply with certain conditions. These conditions may include:
- surrendering your passport - obeying a curfew - refraining from using drugs or alcohol - abstaining from criminal activity - meeting with a pretrial services officer - GPS monitoring
If you violate any of the conditions of your release, you may be arrested and held in jail until your next court appearance.
What are the consequences of failing to appear for court after being released on bond?
When somebody is released on bond, it means that they have been given the opportunity to remain free until their court date by paying bail. If they do not show up to court, however, there can be a number of consequences. A bench warrant may be issued for their arrest, meaning that they can be taken into custody at any time. Their bail could also be forfeited, meaning that they would lose the money that they paid to be released. In some cases, a failure to appear can also lead to additional charges being filed.
What are the risks of being held in jail without bond?
Being held in jail without bond can have a number of risks and potential negative consequences. First and foremost, it can mean that a person is unable to post bail and must remain in custody until their trial. This can lead to a number of problems, including losing one's job, not being able to care for one's family, and so on. Additionally, it can also lead to a person being isolated from the outside world and facing potential violence from other inmates. Finally, it should be noted that being held in jail without bond can also have a significant impact on one's ability to defend themselves in court, as they will not have the same resources as someone who is out on bail.
What are the rights of those held in jail without bond?
When a person is arrested and jailed, their Constitutional rights are somewhat limited. One of the most important rights that a person has is the right to bail, or the right to be released from jail until their trial. However, in some cases, a person may be held in jail without bond. This means that the court has decided that the person is too dangerous to be released on bail, and they will remain in jail until their trial.
There are some protections in place for those who are held in jail without bond. First, they are entitled to a hearing within 48 hours of their arrest. At this hearing, the judge will decide whether or not to set a bond. If the judge decides not to set a bond, the person will be held in jail until their trial. In some cases, the person may be able to appeal the decision to a higher court.
Second, even if a bond is set, the person may still be held in jail if they are unable to post bond. In this case, the person is still entitled to a trial, and they will be held in jail until their trial date.
Third, those who are held in jail without bond are still entitled to basic human rights, such as the right to food and water, the right to medical care, and the right to access to a lawyer.
Fourth, those who are held in jail without bond are entitled to a speedy trial. In most cases, this means that the person will be tried within 90 days of their arrest. However, if the person is facing a capital offense, they may be held in jail for up to 180 days before their trial.
Fifth, those who are held in jail without bond are entitled to have their case heard by a jury of their peers. This means that 12 people will hear the evidence against the person and decide whether or not they are guilty.
Sixth, those who are held in jail without bond are entitled to be presumed innocent until proven guilty. This means that the burden of proof is on the prosecution, and they must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the person is guilty of the crime they are accused of.
Seventh, those who are held in jail without bond are entitled to a public trial. This means that anyone can come and watch the proceedings, and the proceedings will be reported in the news.
Eighth, those who are held in jail without bond are entitled to have an attorney represent
How can you contest the amount of your bond?
You can contest the amount of your bond in several ways. One way to do this is to show that the amount of the bond is excessive. For example, if you are charged with a misdemeanor, the maximum amount of the bond should not be more than $500. If the amount of the bond is set higher than this, you can ask the judge to reduce the bond.
Another way to contest the amount of your bond is to show that you are not a flight risk. This means that you are not likely to flee the jurisdiction before your trial. To show this, you can provide the court with evidence of your ties to the community, such as your employment, family, and community involvement. You can also show that you have appeared for all previous court dates.
If you are unable to pay the amount of the bond, you can ask the court to allow you to be released on your own recognizance. This means that you do not have to pay the bond, but you must agree to appear for all future court dates.
Finally, you can ask the court to allow you to pay the bond in installments. This is usually only allowed if the bond is very large and you can show that you are unable to pay the entire amount at once.
contesting the amount of your bond can be a complex process. If you are facing a bond, you should speak to an experienced attorney to discuss your options and ensure that your rights are protected.
What are the options for those who cannot afford to pay bond?
There are a few options for those who cannot afford to pay bond. One option is to seek the help of a bail bondsman. A bail bondsman is a professional who posts bail on behalf of a defendant. In most cases, the bail bondsman will require collateral, such as a home or a car, in order to post bail. If the defendant fails to appear in court, the bail bondsman will be responsible for paying the full bail amount.
Another option is to ask family or friends for help. Many people are willing to help a loved one in need, and this can be a great way to get the money for bail. However, it is important to remember that if the defendant does not appear in court, the person who paid the bail may not get their money back.
Yet another option is to try to raise the money on your own. This can be a difficult task, but it is possible to do if you are willing to put in the time and effort. You may be able to get a loan from a friend or family member, or you may be able to sell some of your personal belongings in order to raise the money for bail.
No matter what option you choose, it is important to remember that failing to appear in court can have serious consequences. If you are unable to make your bail, you may be held in jail until your trial. This can be a very stressful and difficult experience, so it is important to make sure that you do everything you can to make your bail and appear in court.
What is the impact of being held in jail without bond on your case?
Being held in jail without bond can have a number of impacts on your case. First and foremost, it can significantly delay the progress of your case. If you are held in jail without bond, you will likely be unable to afford an attorney and will have to rely on a public defender. This can dramatically impact the quality of your defense. Additionally, being in jail can make it difficult to investigate your case and collect evidence. It can also limit your ability to contact witnesses. Finally, if you are convicted, being in jail without bond can add time to your sentence.
Frequently Asked Questions
What determines how much your bond is?
Your bond will be based on a number of factors including your criminal history, your employment status, and whether you have close ties to the community.
What is the highest bail ever set?
Robert Durst was initially ordered to pay $3 billion in bail to avoid years of prison time, but he promptly fled the country before making a single payment.
How bonds are determined?
The price of a bond is determined by discounting the expected cash flows to the present using a discount rate. The three primary influences on bond pricing on the open market are term to maturity, credit quality, and supply and demand.
Who sets the amount of bond?
The amount of bail set by a magistrate is the first order of business in a criminal case, and it is based on the seriousness of the offense and the perceived risk that the accused will flee or not appear for court. Judges generally have broad discretion to set bail at any amount they deem appropriate, based on their estimation of the accused's risk to public safety and the likelihood of him or her complying with bond conditions.
What percentage of a bond should be paid?
The percentage of a bond paid is based on the creditworthiness of the defendant. The higher the credit rating, the lower the percentage.

Burundian media are not accountable to their audiences as are European media, mainly because they lack an internal mediator system to receive complaints from injured parties and there are no systematically established and verifiable standards of feedback mechanisms. The right of reply or correction is possible in theory, but hard to empower especially in public media and privately owned media belonging to the ruling party. Even intellectuals who have been unjustly denounced find it very difficult to enforce their rights.
Local audiences are not accustomed to holding media accountable for violations, nor to seize courts on damage related to any disseminated information that is prejudicial to their rights. The "watchdogs of morality" seem to consider themselves infallible and do not accept any "barking" that can reframe their action.

He walks the street,
aimlessly searching for tranquil.
Patiently observing natures fleet
as it unleashes its wonders.
The kind that forces a grin out,
The kind that lets the mind slide,
to a peaceful and beautiful site.
Darkness bows after this,
as it always at the sight of light.

Pride Month focuses on education about and celebration of progress since the Stonewall Riots, considered by many to be the catalyst of the gay rights movement. This includes honoring the leaders of the uprising, highlighting civil rights victories in the last 50 years, featuring personal stories, and supporting LGBTQ+ owned businesses across the country. This Pride Month, Yelp wants to empower LGBTQ+ businesses around the country with a LGBTQ+ Owned Business Decal.
Out of the millions of local businesses on Yelp, many are owned by hard-working members of the LGBTQ+ community. This June, to celebrate Pride Month, we’re providing businesses an opportunity to share that they’re LGBTQ+ owned and operated with a special window decal that can be proudly displayed on their storefronts. Between these and some of Yelp’s business attributes available such as “Gender Neutral Restrooms” and “Open to All,” we hope to continue the conversations of diversity and inclusion throughout the country.
So how can business owners get their hands on these window decals? Just fill out this form by Friday, June 21. The storefront stickers will be sent directly to the business in the mail. Also, be sure to connect with your local Community Manager who can assist you with any questions, set up an event or just share some best practices to help promote your business to the Yelp community!
In 2016, The National LGBT Chamber of Commerce released thefirst ever snapshot demonstrating the economic and social impact of America’s leading LGBTQ+ business owners and entrepreneurs across the US. In those findings, LGBT businesses contributed over $1.7 trillion to the US economy and created over 33,000 jobs nationwide. We want to continue the empowerment of these businesses across the country by letting their loyal customers and potential customers know they’re proudly LGBTQ+ owned and operated.


U.S. investigating $100,000 donation, Channel 10 says
Will it also investigate Sunroad?
Channel 10 has just reported that the U.S. Attorney's office will look into the $100,000 donation made to the City of San Diego in exchange for public land. The TV channel quoted unnamed sources within the Department of Justice. The station's report seemed to indicate that investigators are most interested in the actions of Mayor Bob Filner. But will the U.S. Attorney's office investigate Sunroad? It made the payment.
This whole incident appears to stink, but I suspect it is common, and may well be legal. On June 30 on this blog, I reported how Manchester Financial Group, which is building a luxury hotel in Austin, Texas, in seeking a favorable rezoning agreement from Travis County, agreed to donate $750,000 to one of three nonprofit entities: Waller Creek Conservancy, Austin Parks Foundation, or "another nonprofit entity or organization with a similar mission," according to the county's declaration that recorded the deal. This appeared to be a quid pro quo that was made official in county documents. Since as far as we know none of the money went into Filner's pocket, what is the crime? Some say that under federal law, even if the recipient of quid pro quo money does not pocket it himself or herself, it is still illegal. What we need to know is how common such deals are.

Management practices are your best defense against neosporosis, which is most commonly spread from an infected cow to her calf through the placenta.
New research confirms that management strategies are more important than genetic selection when it comes to reducing neosporosis, an abortion-causing infection caused by Neospora caninum.
According to an analysis of parentage data and blood-serum samples from 125 Ontario dairy herds, susceptibility to Neospora has a heritability of only 8.4 percent to 12.4 percent. That means you should focus your control efforts on management practices, like culling infected animals, rather than genetic selection.
The research appeared in the November Journal of Dairy Science.

City Watchdog faces crucial test after whistleblower sacked for speaking out
The City watchdog’s whistleblowing regime faces a crucial test after an employee was sacked for speaking up at Royal Bank of Canada.
Trader John Banerjee (pictured) raised the alarm over a complacent culture and inconsistent rules at RBC and was forced out because he dared question the lender. Banerjee has won a tribunal against the bank, which was slammed by the judge for sacking him ‘for making a public interest disclosure’.
The result appears to suggest that senior RBC staff broke strict rules set by the Financial Conduct Authority which state that workers cannot be victimised for raising concerns. It will pile pressure on the FCA to take action against those responsible – potentially opening the door for senior bankers to be banned from the finance industry over the issue for the first time. Regulators are facing calls to take tough action against RBC.
Georgina Halford-Hall of campaign group Whistleblowers UK said: ‘We continue to press the Financial Conduct Authority to take action on the findings exposed in this case.’
Banerjee, 50, joined RBC’s London office in 2015. He quickly raised concerns about the policies which governed trading at the firm and were meant to stop bad behaviour and excessive risk-taking. Banerjee emailed three senior executives after attending a meeting at which staff were told they had a duty to speak up about bad practice. He raised concerns about RBC’s box-ticking culture. But senior bankers privately branded Banerjee a ‘blowhard’. He was fired in August 2016 for repeatedly being late, but Judge Tayler found the bank desperately wanted to avoid a proper investigation of Banerjee’s complaints and had dismissed him to keep him silent.
A spokesman for RBC said: ‘We strongly disagree with the tribunal’s decision and we are appealing.’ The FCA said: ‘Whistleblowers play an important role in exposing poor practice.’
