December 6th, 1768: Encyclopedia Britannica Published
1768 – Encyclopedia Britannica began publishing the first print – otherwise known as “part I”. It was the brain child of Colin Macfarquhar, and Andrew Bell, and was a conservative reaction to the French Encyclopédie of Denis Diderot. The first volume would be completed Edinburgh, Scotland by 1771. The 3rd edition would become popular and also expand for the first time. Since then, the Britannica would be digitized and put on CD, then DVD format. Today’s current version has 400 editors and 1,000 contributors. The Encyclopedia also saw several pirate copies during it’s 242 year run.The Encyclopedia would move to the US in 1901. Today, Britannica is produced as a digital version.

Walmart’s Mexico and Central America unit, Walmex, has revealed plans to invest around Mex$27.1bn ($1.5bn) this year.
The investment, representing a 27% increasing from last year, is intended to drive sustainable long-term growth for the unit.
In a filing, Walmex said it will use 29% of the investment to develop new stores and clubs.
The retailer expects its new stores to account for 1.2-1.4% of its total sales growth for the year.
Walmex will earmark 45% of the investment for remodelling and maintenance, as well as expanding its omnichannel presence.
It will also work to make its stores more accessible for individuals with disabilities while increasing efficiency and sustainability.
In addition, the retailer plans to dedicate 12% of its investments to expanding and modernising its supply chain, with the remaining 14% to go towards strategic omnichannel and technology projects.
Reuters reported that Walmex plans to launch a new health membership product and had been approved to buy a Mexico-based electronic payment provider.
The company currently has nearly 1,500 pharmacies and 500 doctor’s offices across stores in the region.
Walmex growth lead Beatriz Nunez said: “For $30 pesos, our customers can have access to unlimited remote medical service 24/7, nutrition services, ambulance in case of emergency, discounts on specialists and… a 5% discount at our pharmacies and get consultation at our doctor’s offices.
“In 2023, we want to develop health as a strong vertical; it is still in very early stages, but we know how relevant it is for our customers.”
Last month, Walmart reported that its full-year revenue for fiscal 2023 (FY23) had increased by 6.7% to $611.3bn from fiscal 2022.
Its operating income fell by 21.3% to $20.4bn in the year, while its earnings per diluted share (EPS) were $4.27, down from $4.87 a year earlier.

Drivers: Slow Down
The Star Tribune reported last week that a Minnesota traffic study shows an uptick in vehicle fatalities in 2018. Heading into the Labor Day weekend, the 2019 numbers were ahead of the 2018 numbers. There have been 223 traffic deaths so far this year, compared with 218 at this time last year.
In 2018, the top cause of vehicle deaths was speeding. That shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone: Speed Kills. The Number One complaint I hear from people when I'm door knocking, meeting residents on National Night Out, or shopping at Cub is that motorists drive way too fast through Bloomington neighborhoods and on main traffic arteries. Drivers need to slow down. We can increase efforts at the City level to slow traffic through education, road design, and strict enforcement, but the bottom line is that drivers need to slow down. It's a safety issue, a neighborhood vitality issue, and quality of life issue.


The failed state elections in Thuringia have an aftermath: the AfD faction, classified as far-right, attacks left-wing Prime Minister Ramelow with a vote of no confidence.
Erfurt (AP) – In Thuringia, the AfD wants to overthrow Prime Minister Bodo Ramelow (left) and his red-red-green minority government via a vote of no confidence.
In response to the failed re-election of the state parliament, the AfD faction filed on Monday the request for a constructive vote of no confidence. Against Ramelow (65), group leader Björn Höcke wants to run for the office of prime minister. The 49-year-old was classified by the Bureau for the Protection of the Constitution as a representative of the disbanded far-right wing of the AfD.
Under the Thuringian constitution, the Landtag in Erfurt can only express mistrust of the prime minister by electing a successor by a majority of its members. “A fifth of the MPs or a political group can table the motion,” says paragraph 73. There must be at least three and no more than ten days between the motion and the election. The vote is secret. It is unclear whether this will happen during this week’s session of the state parliament.
Ramelow is the only prime minister in the entire country who belongs to the left. He was first elected in 2014. He currently heads a red-red-green minority government, which is missing four votes in the state parliament for its own majority. Until now, it has depended on votes from the CDU faction. With the parliamentary summer holidays, the so-called stability pact between red-red-green and the CDU comes to an end.
Höcke had already opposed the left-wing politician in the March 2020 prime ministerial election, but then withdrew in the third ballot. Greens leader Astrid Rothe-Beinlich wrote on Twitter: “Fascist #Höcke in megalomania. Now he wants to be a #MP. There’s only one thing: say no.” She called the AfD’s request a provocation.
The AfD parliamentary group, on the other hand, stated: “With the constructive vote of no confidence that we have requested, we want to create the formal conditions for ending Bodo Ramelow’s failed minority coalition.” It is also open to candidates from other political groups, “who will allow a fresh start in Thuringia”.
The Left and the Greens canceled the dissolution of the state parliament that had been requested Friday along with the SPD and CDU, because the constitutionally required two-thirds majority in addition to the AfD votes was uncertain. After the debacle in the election of short-term Prime Minister Thomas Kemmerich (FDP) last year, there should be no risk that the AfD votes could be decisive, even in an early election to parliament. The state elections, which were planned together with the federal elections on September 26, were also canceled. It should ensure clear majorities in Erfurt.

Former president Nelson Mandela wrote the obituary of ANC stalwart Walter Sisulu, presidential spokesman Mac Maharaj revealed on Thursday.
“I secretly went to Madiba and told him that Walter will one day die and we need an obituary. I told him it was to be written by you.”
Maharaj was speaking at the Nelson Mandela Foundation in Johannesburg about his comrade, Madiba.
“I then went to Walter telling him Madiba will one day die and he must write his obituary.
“Like Mandela, he asked ‘why me?’” Maharaj told the audience who had gathered to hear him reminisce about Mandela.
He said he promised both that the obituary would be locked in a safe.
“When Walter passed on the obituary was published. And now Mandela's obituary has been published. This is one secret I have to confess to,” he told a laughing crowd.
Maharaj said Mandela was a man of laughter.
“At one moment (opposition leader) Tony Leon wrote to him saying his (Mandela's) government was goofy... When Leon was in hospital, Mandela visited him and said ‘Micky Mouse, it is Goofy’,” he told the crowd.
Earlier, ANC national executive member Joel Netshitenzhe said Mandela insisted on wearing the same shirt for two days, arguing that it was not dirty.
He said when you borrowed a newspaper from Mandela you had to return it neatly intact or Mandela would ask whether it was the same paper you had borrowed from him.
Netshitenzhe said he viewed Mandela's body lying in state at the Union Buildings in Pretoria.
“It was an unpleasant moment to see this towering body lying silent...”
Netshitenzhe said Mandela believed in nation-building, reconciliation and development.
Mandela died on December 5 at his home in Houghton, Johannesburg.
He will be buried in Qunu in the Eastern Cape on Sunday.
Maharaj said Mandela had been sanctioned by the ANC more than anyone he could recall.
“One thing about Madiba was that he obeyed the sanction. He admitted to making mistakes and was quick to rectify them.”
“He told me that when he went home and realised he had made a mistake the following day he repaired the damage.”
He described Mandela as a good listener, who would be remembered as a man who fought against corruption and had the interests of the poor at heart.
What was needed to take the Mandela legacy forward was to engage in dialogue, Maharaj said.
South Africa had achieved much in its 19 years of democracy.
“We have achieved a lot with our mistakes. South Africa can change the world.” - Sapa

Britain's Winston Gordon lit up the Olympic judo competition with a stunning throw amid a blistering start to the men's under-90kg division on Wednesday.
Gordon's o-guruma (major wheel) to flatten Canada's Alexandre Emond was the pick of an impressive array of techniques.
An Olympic finalist two weight categories below in Sydney 12 years ago, Brazilian Tiago Camilo followed closely behind with a flashing tai-otoshi (body drop) to beat Ukraine's Roman Gontyuk, himself twice an Olympic medallist.
Gordon's next opponent Kirill Denisov of Russia also produced a lovely tai-otoshi to beat Ivan Remarenco of Moldova while Timur Bolat of Kazakhstan, who curiously was wearing pink underwear, managed a last second ippon on Egypt's Hisham Mesbah, bronze medallist in Beijing, with a huge te-guruma (pick up).
There were also a few impressive throws that didn't quite score the maximum ippon but nonetheless warmed the crowd's palms, not least Greek world champion Ilias Iliadis's tsuri-goshi (lifting hip) on Slovak Milan Randl for a half-point waza-ari.
Japan's second seed Masashi Nishiyama also won by waza-ari over Chingiz Mamedov of Kyrgyzstan with an ashi-guruma (leg wheel).
In the women's under-70kg category former world champion Yuri Alvear of Colombia got in on the act with a delightful hiza-guruma (knee wheel) to beat Brazil's Maria Portela.

This years theme? Celebrating 25 years of course!
It’s always a fun day photographing the Brisbane Broncos and particularly this year as we had a celebratory theme. Previously the mood has been serious, as the boys delivered their steely personas for past poster looks. Not so this year. We had military drums, bongos, tamborines, all playing in unison to Alex Glenn and Sam Thiaday’s singing while they waited their turn to be photographed, and it shows in the final result. Truly a party atmosphere. Congratulations Brisbane Broncos on 25 years!

How did a childhood memory spur the formation of a global company that acts as a barrier against illness and saves? Why is its founder actively seeking to enter difficult markets in developing countries rather than rely on demand in the developed world? Stéphane Pénari, CEO, MetalSkin Technologies explained to Mohana M, Editor, Clean India Journal how coating high-touch surfaces with a natural element-based product is the future of long-term disinfection.
Back in the 70s, an eight-year-old Stéphane Pénari was visiting his grandfather’s countryside home for his summer holidays. Like all grandchildren, he looked up to his grandpa and considered him a genius. One day, he saw Grandpa stripping the copper from an electrical wire to make a thread that would be placed on the barn roof. Why? Grandpa said that when it rained, the copper would protect the roof from moss, and he wouldn’t have to spend much time cleaning and maintaining the roof.
Grandpa performed this ritual only once every fifteen years; if little Stéphane, who always remembered this scene, had missed that day, MetalSkin might perhaps not exist.
The seed of an idea
Years later, Pénari’s furniture design business had a workshop where metal could be sprayed on any surface to make an object look metallic. One day, a scientist asked if he could coat a toilet seat with copper. Why? The scientist wanted to study the antimicrobial efficacy of copper in hospitals. Pénari remembered the moss story from his childhood. Something clicked.
Months later, the study confirmed that the copper-plated seat was extremely effective against bacteria. Grandpa, who was born over a century ago in rural France, had been right all along.
Piloting a business
About a decade ago, Pénari began experimenting to see if copper technology could be applied to a wider range of surfaces. He convinced a hospital to let him coat door handles and light switches in a surgical area. Lo and behold, the hospital’s microbiologists found that MetalSkin helped contain contamination and also reduced the need for constant hygiene training.
He decided to create a business out of his efforts. “I left my old life, and dedicated myself to this virtuous project, as in the end, the goal is to protect people. I had achieved success in my other businesses; now, I wanted to create another success that is also meaningful”, Pénari said.
An identity of its own
At the time of our conversation, he had recently returned from Brazil, where he saw that the hygiene conditions in public transport especially, were very similar to India. Repeated cleaning and disinfection are not practical in high-traffic areas; what is disinfected now can be contaminated again by a single touch. This problem needs a long-lasting solution. A disinfected surface may remain so for mere minutes; a MetalSkin-coated surface kills microbes for years.
“We are at the right place at the right time with the right technology”, said Pénari. “We use only a natural element – copper. We follow sustainable processes and use only recycled copper; our material is recyclable too.”
Obstacles in the path
The director of a hospital once told Pénari, “If we use your technology, we will be acknowledging that we do not clean our hospital properly.” Resistance to new solutions was high. Many people didn’t even want to consider the possibility that their standard of cleaning is inadequate. “In the first two years, I thought about quitting many times”, Pénari said.
He found that the lab conditions under which products are tested do not exist in the real world, especially in developing countries. Moisture levels in Indian buses, for example, do not match those in a French lab, and products used in high-traffic areas do not have the luxury of a prolonged contact time in which they can act.
Pénari went on to work with experts and ISO to create a new standard of cleaning: Under normal conditions and in one hour of contact time, a product must prove that it can kill 99% of bacteria. No higher standard exists.
The turning point
Four years ago, Pénari decided to go all in and dedicate all his time to MetalSkin. It required all his savings, and brought him back almost to startup level, but he has no regrets. Why? Because he has a sense of purpose.
“I can easily sell my product in rich European countries like the UK, Germany, Italy, Spain and others that are close to me”, said Pénari. “But where are they needed more? Brazil, India, Africa and other countries. That’s why when we were approached by our Indian distributor, I was enthusiastic about going ahead. Because at the end of the day, we cannot do much to clean the air, but with MetalSkin, we can do a great deal to keep surfaces clean”.
The social dimension of MetalSkin is at least as important to him as financial profit, perhaps even more. “When I shall look back 10 years from now, MetalSkin will probably have saved at least some people’s lives, or prevented them from falling sick. I have designed hotels earlier, even worked with large companies to create their offices, but nothing is more meaningful to me than keeping the people who live and work there safe”.
Grandpa’s idea will now protect millions and millions of people in practice.

The Fire, the Wind, and the Oil. These three are mingling and becoming one, for you are coming into a place of My Divine Nature. And the three are one because they come from the same Source. A flood of My Spirit is about to be released and it will sweep this land, for many say there is no hope, which is the voice of the enemy. I say, this move of My Spirit will come to pass and is even passing in this moment. It cannot be stopped by the decisions of man. The remnant has already decided and you are now in the place of manifestation. Prepare yourselves for what is about to come, a Breath of My Spirit not breathed before.
The transition into a new age is about to begin, yet is complete, for it is by My Spirit. Come in deep to the place of Still Eternity which is similar, but not the same as My Divine Nature. I will point out the differences as you go further in depth into the pathways of My Spirit. Some new paths, some new treasures, but of the same Spirit. Trust in Me, for I am bringing in the arena of My Divine Nature and Still Eternity.
This will become what the Body will begin to seek, although they do not know it. Do not be discouraged by different wording, for My Spirit is writing it upon their hearts. It is not about giving knowledge, but instead, it will be about giving understanding of what I have put in their hearts. Be bold in what you proclaim and look not at their face. I will do the work from the inside and you will only be able to see glimpses of what is on the inside. The ‘knowing’ will increase and the reading of men’s faces will become less.
Be bold and confident in what I have given. Nothing missing, nothing lacking. Do not worry what place of the path I have you on. My Grace is sufficient and will cover any lack you have. The lack will be transparent to those you minister to and only My Divine Nature will be seen by their eyes. You have already been commissioned, you have already been told to go.
Prophet Steve Walz

High winds spark grass fire
The Merrill Fire Department was dispatched for a grass fire in the Town of Scott on the Town of Harding border on the west side of County Road E Tuesday night. Initially, the Merrill DNR and Corning Fire Department were dispatched to this location just after 8:30 p.m. When Merrill Fire arrived on scene, the fire was about an acre in size along with downed power line wires, which prompted a call to Wisconsin Public Service.
High winds appeared to have caused a tree to fall onto the power lines, severing them. The energized power lines landed in some very dry grassy vegetation which started on fire. The high winds helped fan the fire which spread very rapidly. The fire was quickly extinguished by the fire personnel on scene.
Due to the existing conditions, including the unseasonably warm temperatures which caused the early snow melt along with the lack of rain, conditions for wild land fires are ripe with the extremely dry vegetation on the ground. The Merrill Fire Department would like to remind people that grass fires will start and spread quickly at this time until we receive some precipitation, especially if there is any wind. Be very careful when burning this time of year (always check the DNR website to see whether burning is even allowed) whether you burn garbage in a barrel or have a campfire. Never leave any fire unattended as a spark from either one could start a wild land fire.

Helping Sri Lanka control and fight against the dreaded dengue disease, Viber recently launched a novel awareness sticker pack.
The Viber dengue sticker pack is launched in collaboration with Sirasa FM, the country’s leading radio station and the Ministry of Health to help spread this important message among as part of a national effort to combat the disease.
The main aim of the sticker pack is to spread awareness and educate Viber users in adopting key preventive measures to combat the spread of dengue. The stickers are an engagingillustrativeway of reminding the community on the importance of protecting themselves from the dengue mosquito. Viber users can download the stickers via http://stickers.viber.com/pages/vsrdengue.
“We firmly believe the Viber sticker pack on dengue will be successful in creating mass awareness and community mobilisation towards educating the people in preventive measures and helping prevent the spread of dengue in Sri Lanka,” said Anubhav Nayyar, Head of Viber Asia.
Viber Stickers are used in Viber conversations to express an emotion, a reaction or a statement instead of simple text messages. With Viber users in Sri Lanka reaching over nine million and approximately 70 million stickers being exchanged monthly in the country, the app is an ideal platform to conduct such an important national awareness program.
“Community participation in dengue control is vital and public support imperative to help eradicate the disease. We aim to intensify our fight against dengue and the launch of the awareness campaign with Viber through their popular sticker pack will contribute towards protecting our communities against this disease,” noted Dr. Hasitha Tissera, Director, Dengue Control Unit, Government Epidemiology Department.


The almost 13,000 ft²(1,200 m²) facility will be used to study and develop the understanding of bulk solids materials handling, in turn enhancing the businesses that use these materials or manufacture the systems that convey, store and dispense them. Research at the BSIC will mainly focus on the process industries of foods, chemicals and plastics. The BSIC will be the fourth such university-level research center in the world, and the only one in North America. It will include office space for researchers and five flexible bulk solids laboratories to allow for collaborative and proprietary research projects by the building's tenants and industry sponsors. The largest space is a 30 ft (9.14 m) tall open bay for full scale testing of bulk solids behavior and applied research conducted by university investigators, students and tenants. It is envisioned that this facility will also act as an innovation center where the university and industry can work together on new ventures, and a large classroom will allow continuing education and university level courses about bulk solids. The university has committed to providing researchers, students and tenants to work on their own projects as well as on projects funded by industry.
Companies such as Exxon Mobile, Dow, DuPont, Cargill, P&G and ADM have committed to engage research projects with the university, once the Center opens. Todd Smith is extremely excited with the support he has received by companies donating their equipment to the facility.

Multitouch refers to a touchscreen interaction technique in which multiple simultaneous touchpoints and movements can be detected and used for screen navigation or to control objects (such as sorting a series of pictures) on the screen. Various combinations of two or more fingers may be used together to create control gestures. A user may, for example, zoom into a picture by placing a thumb and an index finger on a touchscreen and then moving them apart. To zoom out, a user would move the same two fingers back together in a pinching motion.

- Rent.com.au's RentPay platform allows user to schedule and pay rent from a secure digital wallet, while building their credit score
- Partnership will see RMA use and promote RentPay app in leasing process, while reaping benefits of premium listings on rent.com.au
- Collaboration is only one of many agency partnerships, with hope for more in future says rent.com.au CEO
Dedicated rental site rent.com.au has announced it has joined forces with South Perth-based property manager, Rental Management Australia (RMA).
As part of the collaboration, RMA will incorporate rent.com.au’s RentPay payment platform in their leasing process.
RMA to promote new RentPay platform
The RentPay app allows users to set up and pay their rent via a secure digital wallet.
Users also have access to a short-term loan, or Safetynet, in times of need to cover their rent payment and addition to improving their credit score with Scorebuilder.
Rent.com.au CEO Greg Bader said the company aims to make RentPay the leading renter-driven payment platform.
Mr Bader added that property managers whose tenants use RentPay also receive major benefits.
“When renters are better able to plan and manage their rental payments and are rewarded for a having great payment history then agents save time and hassle because of a lower need to chase up late payments.”
Greg Bader, Rent.com.au CEO
“In addition, agents with multiple renters using RentPay will receive daily pay files which can be directly uploaded into their CRM/trust accounting system to automate reconciliations,” he said.
He added that full automation is in the workings, with rent.com.au partnering with several trust accounting providers.
Case studies we’ve done with existing agent customers have indicated that for a medium sized rent roll, time savings can be several hours per day,” he said.
RentPay tech lifts weight for property managers, says RMA
RMA Chief Financial Officer Chris Wiese said Rental Management Australia is solely focused on property management, with over $4 billion in residential assets overseen by the company.
RMA manages rental properties across Western Australia, Queensland and Victoria while headquartered out of South Perth.
“We’re always looking to align with companies who can deliver leading edge technology or products for our industry and that’s why we’ve agreed to promote RentPay to our tenants.
The innovative Scorebuilder feature, the savings buffer and Safetynet as well as the ability for a renter to pay using different payment methods all deliver value to renters and allow us to focus on the property management,” Mr Wiese explained.
One of many agency partnerships
As terms of the partnership, communications and marketing collateral for RentPay will be provided to RMA, in conjunction with ongoing training and support.
RMA properties will receive premium listings on the RentPay platform in effort to expand RMA’s reach to more prospective tenants.
RentPay has also agreed to assist in the onboarding of new tenants to the platform.
“We want to partner with agents who care about their tenants, who want them to have a good experience and who want the best for renters.”
Greg Bader, Rent.com.au CEO
Mr Bader described RMA as the “perfect partners” in their attentiveness towards their tenants, and thanked RMA for their generosity in refining RentPay to suit their needs.
This most recent partnership is only one of many, with several agency relationships representing more than 7,500 tenants using the platform.
“RentPay has signed similar collaboration agreements with a number of franchise property management offices throughout Australia and that is something we’re keen to do more of,” concluded Mr Bader.

Can you please shed some light on Dhruv for ASW?
Wiki says that it has been shelved. Is it true?
If yes, Is there any hope of revival of this project ?
username changed to sunny y.
sunny, regarding the ASW dhruv, please have a look at old entries at ajai shukla's blog broadsword, including the comments section. there is still some confusion over this.
coming to the subsystems please understand that these are all by specialised pvt manufacturers who have a monopoly on not only the military but also the much larger civil market.
consider one such subsystem in your list for example, the Flotation bags from FPT.
a handful of manufacturers control the whole gamut of this and related products and therefore have massive advantages when it comes to economics of scale.
have a peek at their product line http://www.fptind.co.uk/
India required (say) 20-30 flotation bags at most, do you think it makes sense to invest in the complete R&D and certification of this non-critical tech for such a small requirement.
what's worse, your project will have time overruns if you fail to deliver it on time.
the sensible approach is to develop critical tech that no one will share in-house, get JVs with established players to mix and match capabilities and simply buy from abroad when it came to non-critical tech. this is what India has started doing the last 4-5 years.
Amit, this is what the turbomeca site says
The Ardiden is intended for helicopters in the 5 to 6.5-ton class. For its first application, the Dhruv, a first engine variant christened the Ardiden 1H1 (or "Shakti" in India) is jointly developed and producted with HAL.
but I do vaguely remember reading that the critical parts of the shakti are french. HAL is anyway not much of an engine designer.
p.s. no need for Sir.

Sky is growing its international production and distribution business with a majority stake in British factual producer True North and an investment in drama producer Chrysalis Vision. The moves are part of Sky’s expansion strategy under the Sky Vision banner which has stakes in such firms as Love Productions, Jupiter Entertainment, Blast! Films and Talos Films.
True North was founded in 2001 and is run by Jess Fowle and Andrew Sheldon. The largest factual indie in the north of England, it’s headquartered in Leeds with a second base in Manchester. Credits include A New Life In The Sun, Teen Mom UK, Building The Dream, Homes By The Sea, Junior Vets On Call, The Lie Detective and Breaking The Silence Live. Most recently, it has focused on developing popular factual entertainment shows and formats. Sheldon and Fowle will say on as Creative Directors to spearhead continued growth.
The company had been backed by Channel 4’s Indie Growth Fund which will exit as Sky enters. C4 chief David Abraham says, “In just two years we’ve helped secure a strong future for True North. In this time, and with Channel 4’s support, Andrew and Jess have built one of the biggest factual indies in the country and established an important training ground for new and diverse creative talent in the north. The return on our investment in True North will support our ongoing commitment to the UK-wide creative sector.”
Chrysalis Vision was founded by music, media and sport entrepreneur Chris Wright; producer Mick Pilsworth; former Clear Channel CEO Roger Parry; and investor and former Channel 4 Chairman Luke Johnson. It currently has a slate in development.
As part of the agreements, Sky Vision will become the worldwide commercial and distribution partner for both True North and Chrysalis. Existing terms with other broadcasters and distributors remain unchanged.

OR Legislature Passes Bill to Re-Allow Homebrewers to Share, Compete
The Oregon House unanimously endorsed Senate Bill 444, which rewrites state law to clearly allow homemade beer and wine to be made, transported and consumed. [It had previously passed the Senate 30-0 and will be signed by the Governor.]
The wording became an issue last summer after the Oregon Liquor Control Commission received an advisory from the Department of Justice saying the law did not allow non-licensed amateurs to share their carefully crafted stout or pinot anywhere except at home. [Previously, home brewers were able to tote around their beer and wine and enter it in competitions. Six gallons of beer is good to share.]
That ruling forced even the Oregon State Fair to cancel last year's homemade wine and beer competition.

The road into Lundy canyon is plowed to the first gate. Beyond here there is a healthy amount of snow on the road. I traveled on several aspects today (SE-E-N) as I toured to a bit above 10,000′ on the shoulder of Gilcrest peak. Making my way up Deer creek from the dam it was quite apparent that the winds have heavily impacted the area. Supportable wind board made for quick skinning up the lower angle terrain along the creek. I chose to wrap around to the SE side of Gilcrest to get t a look at a more solar aspect and to gauge the extent of and surface warming during today’s warm temps and full sun. There is still a decent amount of snow on the SE face of Gilcrest although across the creek on a more WSW aspect the snow has been almost entirely stripped back to bare ground. The exception is cross-loaded gully features that may provide slidable coverage. As Slope angles increased I was kicking myself for not bringing my ski crampons and decided boot packing would be more efficient. This lasted for about 200 yards when I moved on to a steeper, more solar aspect and skinning became once again the preferred method of travel. I observed only moderate amounts of surface warming (~1cm moist grains) up to about 9500′. I was able to initiate some decent-sized pinwheels at one point near a rock outcropping where moist grains made up the top ~2″ of snow, however for the most part I did not find the warming to be concerning.
Wind slabs were not a concern for me today in the areas I traveled. While the signs of recent strong winds were present everywhere, I was unable to find any areas with reactive deposits. Some areas of shallow wind board broke loose into shallow dinner plates and slid downhill but over all exposed areas in this area are more stripped than loaded.
More present for me today was the challenging travel conditions. I was unable find an area that was not impacted by the wind to some extent today. I found many areas of breakable wind board ranging in depth from 1″ – 6″ and the (very) occasional patch of loose faceted snow. However, the bulk of snow surfaces encountered today consisted of very hard supportable wind board. On the plus side, I would say my turns down the NE chute off the shoulder of Gilcrest were predictable, edgeable, and consistently supportable. On the downside, it was quite firm and unforgiving. A fall in the wrong place today could have led to a nasty slide. All in all, it was a beautiful day in the hills and quite an adventure.
I observed evidence of several avalanches in the area that likely occurred either during the most recent storm or in the subsequent wind loading events. I observed muted crown lines near the top of each of the forks of the East gully and a decent debris pile on the mid-slope bench of the N-facing chute I chose to ski today.
I left the car this morning under clear skies, chilly temperatures in the high 20°f and virtually calm winds. Temps increased and maxed out in the mid to upper 30°s and with the full California sun out in force, I felt quite warm for much of the day. Winds picked up around noon out of the NE Gusty at first by 1 pm or so they seemed to be more consistent. Speeds ranged from moderate to strong all afternoon however only minimal amounts of wind transport were observed.Close

By the mid 1960’s a requirement was identified by the Venezuelan Air Force for a jet powered strategic airlifter with a payload of 42 tonnes and a range of 5.000 km, this coincided with the RAF’s own requirement for a similar aircraft. At the time, Shorts was developing a jet powered variant of its Belfast transport, although there was interest shown from the RAF but the British government was hesitant to approve funding for the aircraft because much of its resources were already on the TSR.2. However, in 1964 with the Venezuelan Air Force ordering 150 aircraft and funding part of the development the RAF found itself able to start development of the new aircraft but it still lacked enough funding. When Venezuelan officials presented the requirements for their own strategic airlifter to the British the similarity between the two-aircraft prompted both sides to suggest the possibility of working together to save costs in the same way it was done with the TSR.2.
Development began in 1965 with VeneAvia and Shorts as the main contractors and with the Rolls Royce RB178 chosen as the power plant. The basic design was made around the Belfast’s fuselage with a new nose, wings and tail. One unusual aspect of the aircraft was that it was designed to meet both military and civil airworthiness standards, this was due to the manufacturers intentions to offer it as a civilian freighter. The Venezuelan prototype was rolled out of the VeneAvia factory at Maracaibo on 25 August 1969 and first flew on 21 December. The company and the Air Force then started an operational testing program and the delivery of 68 aircraft. On 5 September 1969, the British prototype conducted its maiden flight from Sydenham Airport, Belfast the testing program then started with the RAF expected to receive 25 airframes beginning in 1971.
The aircraft now designated T-34 Bisonte by the Venezuelan Air Force entered service in 3 March 1971 with the British variant now designated as Bison C.1 entering service on 10 March 1971. The T-34 was soon used for trans Pacific transport flights to Vietnam where the aircraft saw extensive service transporting supplies and weapons for the Vietnamese armed forces. Both VeneAvia and Shorts marketed the aircraft abroad with some success, the first foreign costumer for the aircraft was Canada, which ordered 36 for the RCAF in 1972 with the first aircraft delivered in 1974, this were designated CC-154 Bison in Canadian service.
Development of new variants continued with the first being the T-34B/Bison C.2 with uprated engines, in-flight refuelling capability and increased fuel capacity in 1974, this was later developed into the KT-34B/Bison KC.2 tanker while AWACS and Maritime patrol variants were also offered but cancelled since it was considered the aircraft didn’t have enough range and was too big for both roles. In 1974, the aircraft found three new costumers, with Brazil, Mexico and the Republic of China placing orders for 42, 36 and 58 respectively bringing the orderbook to 265 aircraft at the time.
The T-34C/Bison C.3 is a comprehensive update of the Anglo-Venezuelan airlifter, introducing an EFIS flight-deck, Fly by wire controls, new engines and other systems. Development of the new variant began primarily to offer customers a replacement for their ageing fleet of Bisons. The VAF and the RAF were unprepared to fund the development of a new Bison variant and this spurred VeneAvia and Shorts to develop an improved Bison as a private venture, aimed at both Venezuelan, British and export with the driving requirement being to keep operation and acquisition costs as low as possible. VeneAvia and Shorts (now part of Bombardier) had worked to reduce assembly costs, adopting a modular assembly process, and kept pressure on their suppliers to keep costs down.
The new airframes differ little from their predecessor, the new variant features composite flaps and leading edge surfaces, as well as other structural components but the airframe is otherwise unchanged. The aircraft has two choices of engines, the Aerotécnica TR-11A-45 and the Rolls-Royce RB211. Just like earlier variants it can be fitted with a refuelling probe and underwing air-to-air refuelling pods. Inside the Bison has simplified wiring and systems reducing acquisition and operating costs. Some of the biggest savings though come from the new two crew cockpit with two HUDS, four large multifunction displays, five monochrome displays and side sticks replacing the traditional control column.
The first of six development Bisons (three T-34Cs for the VAF and three Bison C.3s for the RAF) rolled out in September 1993. In late 1994, the VAF had ordered 50 aircraft, the UK 25 Bison C.3s to replace the remaining C.1s, and Canada 24 CC-154Cs.

AMITE — Tangipahoa Parish sheriff candidate Arden Wells has not filed a state tax return for the past five years and should be barred from the Oct. 22 primary election, a lawsuit filed Thursday alleges.
The plaintiff in the suit — Richard A. Schwartz, an Amite city attorney — was arrested twice earlier this year and booked with driving while intoxicated, according to a news report from WDSU-TV in New Orleans.
The suit asks a judge to disqualify Wells from the race on the basis of a false qualification form, which requires candidates to assert that they have either not been required to file a state tax return or have filed one for each of the previous five years, the suit says.
Wells, who was a practicing attorney until he was disbarred Nov. 7, 2007, earned sufficient income to be required to file a return in both 2006 and 2007, the suit alleges.
A hearing in the case has been set for 10 a.m. Monday, according to statute that applies to these types of lawsuits, said Glen Galbraith, of the Hammond law firm Seale and Ross, which represents Schwartz.
“I just got the suit about five minutes ago,” Wells said late Friday afternoon. “This was filed solely to harass, embarrass and defame me.
“They set this thing for Monday and I haven’t even had a chance to research the law,” he said.
Wells refused to comment on whether he had filed returns for the previous five years, but did say that if he didn’t work during a year, he didn’t file a return.
“I didn’t have any of what I consider income in 2010,” he said. “I received a compensation settlement from a personal injury claim, but I did not work.”
Wells said the suit is retaliation for his request to have Schwartz removed as city attorney for the town of Amite earlier this year.
Wells alleged during a July 5 Town Council meeting that Schwartz had been arrested three times and booked with driving while intoxicated and “expressed concern” that the town had not fired him, according to minutes published on the town government’s website.
“This is a mountain out of a molehill and if I get a fair hearing, that’s what it’s going to look like,” Wells said.
Ad hoc Judge Jerome Winsberg has been appointed to hear the case, Galbraith said, after all judges of the 21st Judicial District Court recused themselves on the basis of a 2006 lawsuit Wells filed against the district judges.

Cheap Flights from Glasgow to Fantastic Destinations
Find attractions, landmarks and things to do whilst in Glasgow,
Scotland on our comprehensive map guide.
View our Glasgow guide and take it along with you.
When it comes to taking a city break there are cities offering sensational shopping, boasting brilliant architecture and a plethora of things to do. One such city is Glasgow.
Normally the temptation is to look to the heavens and drift off in a dream about the fashion of Paris, the beauty of Barcelona or the history of Rome. However, Jet2.com has found that Glasgow can appeal to all of these impulses; only without the sunshine!
Cheap flights to Glasgow from Jet2.com unlock a culturally rich city that is more than just football, pubs and battered food - although these all play a part in making Glasgow a fascinating and exciting city for a short break.
Discover a Rich Culture with Cheap Flights to Glasgow
It is now 21 years since Glasgow enjoyed the status of being the European City of Culture but it hasn't rested on its laurels. Instead, its cultural offerings improve year on year. Famed for the Burrell Collection, the Glasgow Science Centre and the Gallery of Modern Art there is a wealth of artistic influences that form the crux of Glasgow's cultural offerings.
The Glasgow Science Centre opened in 2001 and is an eye-catching building on the Glasgow landscape. Its position on the south bank of the River Clyde gives it prominence and it is a popular attraction for schools and young children.
Speaking of eye-catching designs and dramatic architecture, the Glasgow Cathedral and Glasgow Necropolis are reminders of a past, long since destroyed by the 1560 Reformation. They are the only surviving medieval Scottish buildings on the mainland and well worth a visit when arriving on cheap flights to Glasgow. Access is easy, although getting to the Necropolis is a little more difficult.
That's Music to Our Ears
For culture of a different kind, the modernised, cosmopolitan face of Glasgow offers shops, luxury boutiques and plenty of bars, clubs and pubs for visitors arriving on cheap flights to Glasgow. Gone are the images of dingy pubs filled with smoke, replaced by a slew of swanky lounge bars or traditional pubs oozing character and offering real ales and promises of stories about the city.
These are complemented by plenty of restaurants and cute eateries designed to ensnare shoppers needing a break between exercising the plastic. The pedestrianised areas of Buchanan Street, Argyle Street, and Sauchiehall Street in the centre are the best places to splurge the holiday budget and contribute to Glasgow's status as the best retail centre outside of London.
Visitors arriving on their cheap flights to Glasgow will also find a vibrant music scene with live gigs in underground, alternative dens or blaring out from the main venues. The famous King Tut's Wah Wah Hut is the fabled example of the former, cramming 300 raucous fans into a sweaty bar whilst The Glasgow Barrowland Ballroom and O2 Academy personify the larger gig.
There is such a variety of music showcased in Glasgow that everyone will be satisfied and its cult status amongst hundreds of bands and artists ensures that all the top names return.
The Great Outdoors on Your Doorstep
Glasgow used to be, geographically speaking, a lot bigger than it is today. The boundaries of the city used to spread for miles and visitors arriving on cheap flights to Glasgow should make some time to visit some of these areas.
Loch Lomond offers a breathtaking landscape with a myriad of walks available amongst the serene settings. It is only a 45 minute drive from the city so it makes for an ideal day out, especially if you have taken cheap flights to Glasgow for a romantic break. It is also the setting for the Scottish Open golf in early July when the likes of Tiger Woods, Phil Mickleson and Lee Westwood can be found out on the lush greens.
Other iconic landmarks that should be on everyone's list during a holiday in Glasgow are Ben Nevis and Fort William. These are a little further out and take a little bit longer to reach but well worth the visit.
The Ben, as the locals like to refer to it, is the highest mountain in the British Isles and regularly attracts daredevils looking to ascend its steep sides. The majority of people do this along the well-constructed pony track.
Visitors can access the mountain ascent through the town of Fort William. This is the largest town in the highlands and at the heart of many salubrious walks through the countryside.
Cheap flights to Glasgow from Jet2.com unlock all of this, making it a perfect destination for a short city break or, if you plan on squeezing everything in, a longer stay.
Jet2.com also fly from various other destinations in the UK including Leeds Bradford, Manchester, Newcastle, Belfast and Blackpool. For the full destination list visit the cheap flights from the UK guide.

BUILDING A CULTURE THAT BUILDS LEADERS - CELEBRATE FAILURE
How does your organization tackle the challenge of raising new leaders? Does your organization value leaders? Does it actively seek to improve them? A culture that does not drive toward actively developing leaders is actually working against you. If your organization isn’t encouraging volunteers to grow continually, you may unintentionally be keeping them stagnant.
Over the next few weeks, we’ll be breaking down the best ways to build a culture that naturally builds leaders. Today, we’ll kick off the series with the idea of CELEBRATING FAILURE. Here’s how celebrating failures can help build a culture of leadership building in your organization.
Take the Fear Out of Risk.
Creating a safe-to-fail environment allows potential leaders to stretch themselves and move beyond their current capabilities. Studies show that when people feel “psychologically safe” (meaning their coworkers won’t pound them if they fail), they are more inclined to take moderate risks, speak their minds, and be more creative.
Inc.com suggests creating a failed ideas “hall of fame”. Much like companies pay tribute to their proudest achievements, this highlights attempts that didn’t take off. It’s a great way to visually demonstrate that failure is not fatal. It shows your team that moving forward and learning from mistakes is not only acceptable but supported.
Remember, our greatest asset in our organization is our people. As leaders, it’s our job to cultivate our volunteers and move them along their personal journey. We’ll discuss the other tips in the weeks to come, so if you haven’t already done so, make sure to subscribe to the blog.

Every group of the faithful needs a comforting word from time to time, particularly when the community is under stress. As Jeremiah continues his prophecy from God, he makes the point that the desolation of their native land and of their very souls will pass away, that once again the land will be crowded with laughing children and the fields filled with cattle and sheep.
Jeremiah also speaks of a time of renewed faith when God will try a new approach with the people—rejuvenating the covenant by internalizing it in the hearts and minds of the people.
God looks to a time when people will do the right thing without thinking and where nothing will be more important than their relationship with God.
I think that it is fair to say that in this modern era, the covenant of God as we experience it in Jesus Christ has yet to become the central point in the lives of even the most devout believers.
We live in a complex time when the competing voices threatened to descend into cacophony and the word of God can be crowded out by the noise. It means that we more than ever need to be faithful in daily prayer, take time to be with God without the interference of the sounds of modern life, and allow God to reveal meaning through our experience of Holy Scripture.
Paul in writing to Timothy says all scripture is inspired by God and useful for the Christian life of ministry in service. It will prepare us for every good work and has the potential to transcend the noise and busy-ness of our lives.
Yet Holy Scripture have been locked in controversy by faithful but competing views.
Both speak of others being those providing fodder for itching ears. I think they miss the point.
It seems to me that the word of God as found in Scripture speaks to us in both specific and general ways, based on our situations. But it requires several things on our point.
First we need to offer the situation to God. Second we have to be willing to be present with scripture without assuming we have the answers. Finally we need to be open to whether what we are reading or hearing is truly relevant to our lives.
The classic Christian understanding is that the surest way to fuller understanding God’s word is to experience the scripture in the context of the community with which we worship and participate in God’s ministries. I believe that this is the surest though not always the perfect way.
Now I’d like to shift and discuss prayer. I think we are often confused in our expectations of prayer. Part of our confusion comes from what Jesus says about prayer.
Today’s gospel is no exception. We are told that the disciples are told this parable about their need to pray always and not lose heart. He goes on to relate how a widow keeps after an unjust judge to give her justice until her nagging drives him to grant her justice
Jesus concludes that God will not long delay answering the prayers of the elect. However, we might conclude that our prayers for needs, wants and desires which aren’t answered as we want demonstrate that we must be doing something wrong or that the way the disciples prayed was special and we can’t duplicate that style.
But Jesus is not focusing on just any sort of prayer but prayer for justice. That is what Jesus is calling for—the relentless prayer of the faithful for justice for those in need and this should be our focus as well.
When we pray earnestly, we focus and are rewarded with insights as to how we might make a difference.
But Jesus is concerned with a greater problem and that is whether people will be faithful. And this is a concern. Jesus has seen those who have observed miraculous healings and feedings and the excitement passes with kindling faith.
Will justice assist people to become more faithful? That is the question and important to answer. Brothers and sisters, what will our answer be?


The Geordie Shore star admitted that she once kicked her TOWIE fella in the stomach during a fight, saying Ricky was "upset" after the incident and she felt guilty.
However, she and Ricky appeared to find the violent incident funny after it surfaced in the press.
A Twitter user commented: "Once violence happens in a relationship it over goodbye Marnie and Ricky in my opinion [sic]."
Upon seeing this, Rayment wrote: "Don't be stupid. That's why I love her. Feisty one she is."
Marnie also chimed in: "I keep you on your toes don't I babe! And to be fair my kick isn't the hardest mind feeble."
Ricky then wrote back: "I just DDT her on to the bed" – referring to a wrestling move in which you put your opponent in a headlock and force their heads to hit the ground.
Miss Simpson, who got engaged to Ricky last month, told Star magazine: "We argue over stupid things. One time I kicked him in the stomach and I felt really guilty. I almost cried about it. He was upset.
"When we have an argument we just laugh about it and then have make-up sex!"
The controversial comments were met with outrage from fans, with one writing: "Can't believe Marnie kicked Ricky in the stomach. Who does that?! Used to admire her beauty but that behaviour is crazy."
The reality TV duo started dating back in January, and have already had each other's initials tattooed on their wrists.
Last year, Kelly Brook was criticised for trivialising domestic abuse when she laughed while talking about punching exes Danny Cipriani and Jason Statham.

I Wish I Win takes out the $10MILLION Golden Eagle after ‘a gun run’ by jockey Luke Nolen – with the iconic Black Caviar pairing completing a fairytale return
Top jockey Luke Nolen has produced ‘a gun run’ on I Wish I Win, taking out the $10million Golden Eagle at Rosehill Racecourse on Saturday afternoon.
The iconic Black Caviar pairing of Nolen and trainer Peter Moody got the four-year-old gelding over the line, clinging on to hold off Hugh Bowman and the fast-finishing Fangirl, with Gypsy Goddess nabbing third.
It was a fairytale win for Nolen in particular, who has spent significant chunks of time out due to injury, while Moody’s return to racing has shown despite the smaller operation, he can win the biggest of big races.
The fourth richest race on turf in the world, the Golden Eagle was the brainchild of Racing NSW supremo Peter V’landys, and punters, bathed in glorious Sydney sunshine, flocked to the track for the fourth edition of the race.
More to come…

Animal Control Services says they received a call for a "possible tiger sighting" at a home on the city's southwest side.
The incident was reported Friday in the 8600 block of Elk Runner Street near Pearsall Park.
A San Antonio police officer on the scene told KENS 5 on Friday that a neighbor called to report a tiger in their backyard.
According to a preliminary report SAPD sent Saturday morning, the neighbor told police they saw the tiger walking around. Officers went to the home and determined the tiger fled from the caller's address.
ACS and SAPD contacted a homeowner who allegedly had the tiger. He reportedly said the tiger was not his, but it was at his address for a few hours so he could "show his family the tiger."
During that time, the tiger jumped the back fence to the neighbor's yard. And the homeowner told police they were able to catch the tiger and take it back to the original address where the "owner has several other tigers."
ACS said they will continue the investigation.
