Comments much appreciated as to wether it works as an image. Taken with window light.
Woo that is crystal sharp and a nice unusal slant on the wedding shot, very nice Jude.
This I really like, very romantic, the detail on the dress is superb.
I like the different viewpoint and idea, but maybe would have liked to see more of the man on the left to balance it a bit more (not sure though!!)
I like the idea, the dress detail stands out well too, but.. the hand dominates a wee bit too much for me and it appears places rather than naturally holding the waist, also have you softened it, the hand that is? Also the bride's arm, I see some pixellation, was it in shadow and you've brought the levels up or something on that area? Forgive me if I'm wrong. K.
I agree about the hand being dominant in the picture, but it's a cracking intimate shot, with good detail of the brides dress (always a good point). It just needs a little rethink but the basics are definatley there. CLICK
Thanks for your comments.My thought, after the event(!) was to catch the left hand with his ring being the focal point. I took this as they were having a very natural snog (- caught that too but that's between them and me )- so the hand wasn't placed. This is an image within another image, so it is cropped quite closely and run through noisewear - but the idea was more what I was thinking about.
Thanks all, very helpful.
I really like the intimate nature of this shot, its also pin sharp, and very nicely exposed. In my very humble opinion, I think there has been to much analysis on this. It is what it is, and it works for that reason.
Great shot - I'd be thrilled to have one like this in my wedding album!
Lovely detail in the dress, and I like the idea too. Sandra
Thankyou Dave and Sandra - really glad you like it!
Wonderful work . A well made and beautiful dress with the covered buttons and loops . Most of all I love that strong hand . Looks as if he could have a temper though or is worried about the cost of that wedding, by the nibbled nails . Very precious . xx
Lol, thanks Mavis
really like this.
Lovely detail....very well captured !
This is good... very good.
great image with a good and different view point
works very well...

Tijuana is a developing cultural center and has been acknowledged as an important new cultural mecca
Written by on December 23, 2019
Tijuana is found on the Gold Coast of Baja California, and is the municipal seat and the cultural and commercial center of Tijuana Municipality (Mexican states are divided into municipalities, rather than counties as in the U.S.). Tijuana covers 70% of the territory of the municipality and consists of 80% of its population. A dominant manufacturing center of the North American continent, the city maintains facilities of numerous multinational conglomerate businesses. In the early 21st century, Tijuana grew to become the health-related–gadget manufacturing capital of North America. Tijuana is also a growing cultural center and has been acknowledged as an important new cultural mecca. The city is the most visited border city in the globe sharing a border of about 24 km (15 mi) with its sister city San Diego, and is known for Tijuana escorts. More than fifty million people cross the border among these two cities each and every year. This metropolitan crossing helps make the San Ysidro Port of Entry the fourth busiest land-border crossing in the world. It is estimated that the two border crossing stations among the cities appropriate of San Diego and Tijuana account for 300,000 daily border crossings alone.
Tijuana is the 45th largest city in the Americas and is the westernmost city in Mexico. According to the 2015 census, the Tijuana metropolitan region was the fifth-largest in Mexico, with a population of one,840,710, but rankings fluctuate, the city (locality) itself was 6th largest and the municipality (administrative) 3rd largest nationally. The international metropolitan region was estimated at about 5,158,459 in 2016, generating it the third-largest metropolitan region in the former Californias region, 19th largest metropolitan region in the Americas, and the largest bi-nationwide conurbation that is shared among US and Mexico with elite latinas. Tijuana is turning into much more suburbanized like San Diego.

Noynoy to act as DILG chief
By ROY C. MABASA
After weeks of deliberation and much speculation from the media and the public, President-elect Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III finally introduced the members of his Cabinet a day before his inauguration as the 15th President of the Republic.
Aquino will act as Department of the Interior and Local Government Secretary as he has yet to decide on who will take the DILG portfolio.
As earlier reported Aquino’s Cabinet was a combination of seasoned government officials and names from the private sector.
Aquino made the announcement at the P-Noy lawyers' headquarters on Samar Street in Quezon City.
The incoming President's Cabinet picks are diverse which featured some familiar faces and some new ones.
The Aquino officials:
Executive Secretary – Lawyer Paquito Ochoa Jr.; Foreign Affairs – Alberto Romulo; Justice – Leila de Lima; Defense – Voltaire Gazmin; Education – Bro. Armin Luistro; Finance – Cesar Purisima; Presidential Management Staff – Julia Abad; Budget and Management – Florencio Abad; National Economic and Development Authority – Cayetano Pederanga; Agriculture – Proceso Alcala; Environment and Natural Resources – Ramon Paje; Transportation and Communication – Jose “Ping” de Jesus; Labor and Employment – Rosalinda Baldoz; Health – Dr. Enrique Ona; Tourism – Alberto Lim; Trade and Industry – Gregory Domingo; Social Works and Development – Corazon “Dinky” Soliman; Science and Technology – Dr. Mario Montejo; Energy – Jose Rene Almendras; Public Works and Highways – Rogelio Singson; Agrarian Reform – Virgilio delos Reyes; Office of the Presidential Adviser of the Peace Process – Ging Deles; Commission on Higher Education – Dr. Patricia Licuanan; Presidential Legal Counsel – Eduardo de Mesa; Bureau of Internal Revenue – Kim Henares; AFP Chief of Staff – Lt. Gen. Ric David; Presidential Security Group chief – Col. Ramon Dizon; Philippine National Police – Jesus Verzosa; Presidential Spokesman – Lawyer Edwin Lacierda; and Truth Commission – Former Chief Justice Hilario Davide Jr.
Some positions such as Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG), Bureau of Customs, and Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) are still pending.
Aquino will act as DILG head in concurrent capacity until such time that the Cabinet portfolio is filled up.
What has been most striking about Aquino's appointments so far is the lack of controversy. The president-elect has moved swiftly to try to bring reassurances to the capability of his probable choices by pointing out that they have been subjected to extensive questions during the screening process.
Questions remain about how well Aquino and his newly formed Cabinet will work together. To erase any doubts, Aquino has constantly pointed out that tried assembled the team he did in part because of the strong personalities they bring to the table.

30 Years of Suede
Celebrate 30 years of this classic album with Fopp!
This year, we pay homage to the venerable Suede, as they celebrate the 30th anniversary of their seminal debut album. In a fitting tribute to this momentous occasion, a remarkable 30th anniversary edition reissue is set to grace our auditory palates. Let’s delve into what made this album truly exceptional.
Suede’s debut self titled album, is set to blow out 30 bloody candles this year. Released back in ’93, this self-titled masterpiece not only kicked Britpop in the bollocks but also left an indelible mark on the cultural tapestry. So, brace yourselves as we dive headfirst into the importance of Suede’s debut album, where sonic rebellion met raw emotion in a potent mix that still sets pulses racing.
Picture this, the early ’90s, a time when British music needed a defibrillator jolt to bring it back to life. Enter Suede, stage left. With glam rock swagger, punk rock energy, and poetic lyrics, Suede reinvented the wheel and gave birth to a new musical order. Anthems like “The Drowners” and “Metal Mickey” tore through the airwaves, rallying a generation desperate for a fresh sound and a rebel yell to call their own.
The record wasn’t just about catchy hooks and infectious melodies. It was a damn time capsule, capturing the spirit of an era like a Polaroid snapshot of youth rebellion. Brett Anderson and his ragtag gang understood the existential struggles of the times, channeling the disillusionment, longing, and decay into raw, bleeding-heart lyrics. “Animal Nitrate” and “Pantomime Horse” hit like a punch in the gut, pouring out angst, desire, and a yearning for something more. These tracks resonated, speaking to a generation lost in a maze of social, political, and economic chaos after 11 years of Thatcherism.
Brett Anderson’s soaring vocals intertwined with Bernard Butler’s guitar wizardry, creating a cocktail that was equal parts gritty and ethereal. The album’s lush arrangements and dynamic song structures defied convention, pushing the boundaries of sound and leaving pretenders in their dust. Suede’s debut was a declaration that rock ‘n’ roll still had a few tricks up its sleeve.
Now, here we stand, 30 years down the line, and Suede’s debut album still echoes through the ages. Its influence reverberates in the veins of future generations of artists who’ve drunk deep from its well of inspiration. This album wasn’t just a flash in the pan; it lit the fuse for the Britpop explosion, setting the stage for working-class heroes to rise. Suede’s legacy isn’t measured by album sales or chart success; it’s etched in the hearts of those who felt the power of their rebellion. They were pioneers, blazing a trail that others would follow, and damn, they did it with style.
This edition has been newly mastered by Phil Kinrade from the original ½” tapes and production masters, overseen and approved by producer Ed Buller.
The vinyl lacquer was expertly cut using precision half-speed mastering by Barry Grint at AIR Mastering. Half-speed mastering is a vinyl cutting technique that improves groove accuracy and transient information creating an incredibly detailed stereo image with a natural high frequency response. Pressed on 180g heavyweight vinyl, housed in a poly-lined inner sleeve, featuring an obi strip and a 4-page booklet insert.
The nine B-sides are now included on a second CD, along with a cover of ‘Brass in Pocket’, recorded for an NME covermount cassette. The two CDs are presented in brand new seven-inch deluxe gatefold packaging, with an 8-page booklet which includes the lyrics and credits.
Out 7th july 2023!

text: Sleeperstar have returned with their best album to date. "Just Another Ghost" is the definition of what it is to make a great rock record. It won't be long before alternative rock radio station are picking up this album and adding its songs to their heavy rotation. And, despite the album's excellence, Sleeperstar remains unsigned and put the disc out all on their own. Recycling older songs like "Texas Rain" and "Disengage" (their best song period) and combing them with newer standouts like "We Go Tonight (Say It Again)" and "Only Human" is the perfect formula for making the album that is going to get you recognized by exponentially more fans than before, not to mention all the major labels. "We Go Tonight" and "Disengage" have the makings of superstar rock records and will hopefully find themselves atop airplay charts in the not-too-distant future. Sleeperstar have proven that they are the real deal and can rub shoulders with the best around, and this album is as good as anything that any alt-rock band has put out as of late.

Getting any dairy animal is a very big commitment. But I believe they are a valuable part of your livestock preparedness. Even more importantly, I believe that goats are the best dairy animals for the survivalist.
My reasons to recommend goats over cows for a survival situation are as follows:
1. A dairy goat costs only about one fifth as much as a dairy cow.
2. Five goats can be fed one the same amount that it takes to feed one cow.
3. If your dairy cow dies, then you are out of luck. But the odds of losing all of your goats is small.
4.Goat browse rather than graze and can make use of a wider variety of forage.
5. Goats are easier to handle
6. Because of their smaller size, goats are less likely to cause serious injuries to humans or other livestock.
The downside is that it will take more time to milk five goats than one cow. You’ll have to get five animals in and out of the stanchion, Wash five udders, milk five does (female goats), strip five udders, etc. But I really believe that the benefits of having the insurance of multiple dairy animals far outweighs the extra effort.
The main drawback is that the cream does not separate in goats milk, so that you will not be able to skim the cream off. And therefore you will not be able to make butter. On the other hand, goat milk is much easier to digest, and many people who cannot drink cows milk can drink goats milk. And of course you can use goats milk to make yogurt, cream cheese, hard cheese, and ice cream, as well as use it in recipes just like you would cows milk.
As I mentioned earlier, dairy animals are a big commitment. This is because they are traditionally milked twice a day, at the same time every day. Perhaps your current schedule doesn’t allow for this. There are ways to get around this, yet still be prepared. You could for instance milk in the morning but let the kids nurse during the day. You could also have a small herd that you do not milk at all, but instead just let them raise offspring until your family NEEDS the milk. Or maybe have a small herd but don’t even breed them until TEOTWAWKI. (They will not produce milk if they do not give birth.).

Sony continues to reign supreme with the advanced compact camera market. It’s most recent camera, the Sony Cyber-shot RX100 III, takes the product line a step further by delivering a fast 24-70mm equivalent lens with an f/1.8-2.8 aperture. That’s a full stop better than what the RX100 II lens delivers at 70mm. Of course, you pay for it a bit in the lens size, which further results in a shorter telephoto reach (compared to the 100mm telephoto reach of the RX100 II). The RX100 III lens includes a built-in 3-stop ND filter.
The other big new feature on the RX100 III is a built-in EVF. The RX100 II offered an aftermarket EVF accessory; however, it runs $450. Somehow, Sony has managed to stuff the EVF inside the RX100 III and still keep the camera size relatively compact.
Sony RX100 III Key Features
- 20.1MP 1″ Exmor R BSI CMOS Sensor
- BIONZ X Image Processor
- Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* f/1.8-2.8 Lens
- 24-70mm (35mm Equivalent)
- 1440k-Dot OLED Tru-Finder Pop-Up EVF
- 3.0″ 1229k-Dot Multi-Angle Xtra Fine LCD
- Full HD Video in XAVC S, Clean HDMI Out
- Built-In Wi-Fi Connectivity with NFC
- ISO 12800 and 10 fps Continuous Shooting
- Manual Control Ring & Built-In ND Filter
The RX100 III sports a 1-inch class, 20MP BSI CMOS sensor, which is the same sensor found in the RX100 II. The new camera adds Sony’s BIONZ X processor, which is found in the Sony A7, A7R and A7S cameras.
Sony has also really stepped up the video features of the camera by adding the ability to capture XAVC S format video in full HD at 50Mbps data rate. Additionally, the RX100 III offers clean HDMI output and 720p recording at 120fps. You can also view zebras on the LCD and built-in EVF for monitoring exposure while shooting.
WiFi and NFC connectivity round out the main features of the camera. You can connect the camera to compatible smartphones using Sony’s PlayMemories Mobile app for iOS and Android.
The Sony RX100 III should be available in June for $799. Check it out here at B&H Photo.

Danish state broadcaster increasingly coming under financial pressure
Recently, there have been a spate of stories regarding perceived profligacy with public money on the part of the Danish state broadcasting corporation, Danmarks Radio.
The latest of these was the revelation of the appointment of a ‘diversity consultant’ with a salary of 2.1 million kroner per year. And who could forget the 70,000 it shelled out to transport a horse belonging to an employee’s wife.
Scrap it altogether
In the wake of these, Danske Folkeparti (DF) has come up with a suggestion to scrap the licence altogether.
DF’s chairmain, Kristian Thulesen Dahl, would like to see the money levied through taxes instead.
“The licence is a sort of tax paid by every Dane, regardless of their income. It would therefore be much fairer to levy this through the communal taxation system and move this expense onto the budget,” Thulesen Dahl told Berlingske.
DR too dominant a player
Thulesen Dahl would also like to shave 25 percent off DR’s budget – a saving that would amount to around 900 million kroner.
The party feels the national broadcaster has become too dominant in the media market: “It’s important for us to have diversity in the media, with competition and a number of different players offering services to the public.”
Venstre is also open to the idea – as long as the individual does not end up paying more than they do today.
Konservative, however, would prefer a differentiated licence system in which, for example, students would pay a smaller amount. Their cultural affairs spokesperson, Naser Khader, is afraid that if the cost is moved over to the budget, public service broadcasting could suffer.
Keeping an open mind
Socialdemokratiet is also open to suggestions that could involve cutting the funding to DR.
“We’re open-minded when it comes to a discussion on the future financing of public service,” said the party’s media spokesperson, Mogens Jensen,
“We’re also ready to discuss the economic framework for DR and the other players receiving licence funding.”
The state spends 4.4 billion kroner every year on its public service. At present, DR receives by far the lion’s share, getting around 3.6 billion kroner annually, while commercial channel TV2 gets about 0.5 billion – principally to spend on its regional broadcasting.

Absolutely not. The City will continue to provide oversight, leadership and direction of NMB Water from City review/audit staff, NMB Water executive management, the City Manager’s Office, review by the Public Utilities Commission (PUC), and ultimate control by the Mayor/City Council. This includes determination of all current/future water and sewer rates and fees.
Show All Answers
No; the City is not pursuing “privatization,” instead we are seeking to contract with a company to manage day-to-day operational functions, while the City continues to maintain complete control over the direction, policies, plans, finances and rates associated with the utility. The City is not and has never considered selling the utility. Because the City will continue to own and manage the utility, the Florida Public Service Commission (PSC) will not set any of the rates or policies of NMB Water.
No, just as the City handled contracting Sanitation services in December 2015, we will require any firm to transition every single current hourly employee provided that they pass standard employment screens (e.g. drug, background, physical).
Current salaried management and salaried support staff will be evaluated to determine if they are a good fit within the new organization. Current salaried employees may end up in different roles or positions with the new company or remain with the City. Every effort will be made to have the selected firm retain as many salaried employees as possible.
Regardless of whether the position is hourly or salaried, the City will ensure in contract negotiations that salaries are not cut; additionally, certain salaries may increase as we work to ensure the former employees are at market competitive rates.
Former employees will be offered similar benefits (e.g. medical, dental, etc.) including a 401(k) retirement plan in lieu of their current City pension. A 401(k) is a portable and flexible benefit under the employee’s control.
Not at all, in fact the purpose of this endeavor is to ensure our valued customers receive better service at the same or better rates. The City’s contract will stipulate superior service requirements and guidelines that the contractor must adhere to as well as industry-standard best practices and performance measurements that will be constantly evaluated by the City to ensure the highest quality customer service experience.
Definitely not, our contractual terms will require stringent daily laboratory testing of drinking water quality to ensure it continues to meet and/or exceeds all regulatory requirements of the Florida Department of Health, Florida Department of Environmental Protection and the United States Environmental Protection Agency.
The City’s Strategic Plan, developed and unanimously adopted in 2014, directed that a comprehensive review of NMB Water was a high priority. Consequently, the City conducted an Operational Assessment. This assessment was conducted by a highly respected independent third party firm, Eisenhardt Group, Inc., not affiliated with any contract operations firms and with a demonstrated track record of recommending either continued municipal operation of utilities or private sector partnerships depending upon the specific situation and conditions.
The results of this assessment were presented to the PUC and City Council in April 2016 and concluded that NMB Water was operating very poorly in relation to our utility peers. Both the assessment and presentations are available. A condition assessment of utility infrastructure also corroborated that NMB Water is in urgent need of improvements in a number of areas, creating significant risk for the City and for our customers.
In order to ensure that we continue to provide safe, reliable water at affordable rates for years to come, a recommendation was made to issue a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for operational partnership services for NMB Water (including Customer Services). This recommendation was accepted on April 19, 2016, with the passage of Resolution 2016-22. The City used an RFQ method for procurement rather than a Request for Proposal (RFP) method because the primary consideration in the selection was our commitment to attaining the highest standards of quality rather than simply seeking out the low bidder.
RFQ 2016-08 only sought highly qualified firms which demonstrated an outstanding track record of:
Any firm not meeting these standards would have been immediately disqualified.

All savings realized from the contract will belong to the City, specifically NMB Water’s two Enterprise Funds resulting in long-term lower rates, than would otherwise occur without resolving the issues identified in the Eisenhardt Group report, for the utility's customers.
The City Commission, based on the Eisenhardt Group report, decided to direct the City Manager to develop a Request for Qualifications to solicit qualifications from qualified parties for a partnership program for the Public Utilities and Customer Service Departments (now collectively termed ‘NMB Water’).
The City's poor performance over several decades is documented in the Eisenhardt Group Operational Assessment Report (PDF).
Unfortunately, that report demonstrated that the City was failing significantly in almost every single facet of the operation. The City does not have the requisite resources and qualified managers and employees to achieve success. For a specific discussion of the City’s options and the consultant’s ultimate recommendation, please refer to pages 121-133 of the Eisenhardt Group Operational Assessment Report (PDF).
Section 287.055, Florida Statutes, the “Consultants’ Competitive Negotiation Act” (“CCNA”), governs the procurement process. Specifically, subsection (5) Competitive Negotiation, governs the negotiation process requiring that negotiation with the 2nd ranked firm can only occur if the City is unable to negotiate a satisfactory contract with the 1st ranked firm and those negotiations are terminated.
Yes; the City complied with all notice requirements. Please refer to the discussion of the procurement process starting at approximately the 18 minute mark during the April 3, 2017 Special Meeting Presentation or view the City Commission PowerPoint presentation (PDF).
All proposers were allowed equal access to a CONSIDERABLE volume of data regarding the current status of the Utility. All Requests for Additional Information (RAIs) and public records requests from the proposers were fully responded to and the information was shared with all proposers. It's important to note that this solicitation was concerned with qualifications and not with a price bid, so the focus was on demonstrable qualifications exhibited in other municipal utility operation contracts. None of the proposers were given a tour of the facility during the solicitation.
NMB Water is committed to providing the absolute finest utility service for ALL of our regional utility customers; we believe that this necessary operational transition will aid us in achieving that goal. Information will be frequently updated at the NMBWater website. If you have any additional questions, please contact us at 305-957-3657 or Email NMB Water.

The human body is the structure of a human being. It is composed of many different types of cells that together create tissues and subsequently organ systems. They ensure homeostasis and the viability of the human body.
It comprises a head, neck, trunk (which includes the thorax and abdomen), arms and hands, legs and feet.
The study of the human body involves anatomy, physiology, histology and embryology. The body varies anatomically in known ways. Physiology focuses on the systems and organs of the human body and their functions. Many systems and mechanisms interact in order to maintain homeostasis, with safe levels of substances such as sugar and oxygen in the blood.
The body is studied by health professionals, physiologists, anatomists, and by artists to assist them in their work.
The main systems of the human body are:
Circulates blood around the body via the heart, arteries and veins, delivering oxygen and nutrients to organs and cells and carrying their waste products away.
Equalizes temperature in the body.
Mechanical and chemical processes that provide nutrients via the mouth, esophagus, stomach and intestines.
Eliminates waste from the body.
Provides chemical communications within the body using hormones.
Integumentary system/ Exocrine system:
Skin, hair, nails, sweat and other exocrine glandsLymphatic system / Immune system:
The system comprising a network of lymphatic vessels that carry a clear fluid called lymph.
Defends the body against pathogens that may endanger the body.
Enables the body to move using muscles.
Collects and processes information from the senses via nerves and the brain and tells the muscles to contract to cause physical actions.
Renal system / Urinary system/ Excretory system:
The system where the kidneys filter blood.
The sex organs required for the production of offspring.
The lungs and the trachea that bring air into and out of the body.
Bones supporting the body and its organs.

Tall people are more vulnerable when it comes to developing blood clots in their veins, according to a study of more than two million Swedish siblings.
For men 6-foot-2 or taller, researchers found a risk increase of 65 percent when compared to men 5-foot-3 or shorter. Women at least 6 feet tall showed a 69 percent increased risk of venous thromboembolism versus women shorter than 5-foot-1.
These findings were published in Circulation: Cardiovascular Genetics.
“It could just be that because taller individuals have longer leg veins there is more surface area where problems can occur,” lead researcher Bengt Zöller, MD, PhD, associate professor at Lund University and Malmö University Hospital in Malmö, Sweden, said in a statement. “There is also more gravitational pressure in leg veins of taller persons that can increase the risk of blood flow slowing or temporarily stopping.”
Several researchers have previously associated body height with an increased risk of venous thromboembolism. Zöller noted the incidence of thrombosis has increased over time, which could be tied to height gains in populations around the world.
“I think we should start to include height in risk assessment just as overweight, although formal studies are needed to determine exactly how height interacts with inherited blood disorders and other conditions,” he said.

If you want to extend the life of your vehicle, then you will need to carry out some repairs and preventative maintenance tasks every few months. While most modern vehicles are going to run smoothly for decades, a catastrophic breakdown could happen at any time if you don’t take care of essential fixes.
Most spark plugs need to be changed every 30,000 miles, but you should keep an eye out for any signs of premature wear. Your spark plugs might be failing if you notice issues such as rough idling, poor fuel economy, or sluggishness when you press down on the gas pedal. Luckily, spark plugs are relatively affordable, and this simple project should take you no more than an hour as long as you have all of the right tools.
At least once every few weeks, you should carefully check all of your tires for any signs of damage or uneven wear. You also need to rotate and align your tires whenever the oil is changed. Most drivers should be able to rotate and change their tires on their own if they want to save some money, but you must work with an experienced mechanic if you plan on upgrading to larger tires. For larger tires, your mechanic will probably need to install additional hardware such as wheel spacers or larger shocks.
Many drivers don’t realize that brake pads are designed to make unpleasant noises when they are worn down. If your car squeals or screeches whenever you press down on the brake pedal, then you probably need to replace the pads. When worn brake pads aren’t replaced, it can affect other components of your vehicle such as the suspension system and transmission.
In the average vehicle, engine fluids need to be flushed and refilled once every two to three years. Some of those fluids are in completely sealed lines, but temperature changes can result in very slow leaks. You can also flush your fuel system if your fuel economy seems to be dropping. That maintenance task will remove all of the sediment that has collected in the gas tank and fuel lines so that the engine runs more efficiently.
While you might be able to carry out some of these projects on your own, you should still take your vehicle to a reputable auto shop at least a few times a year. During those appointments, an experienced mechanic can look over every inch of your car or truck and make sure that all of the primary components are working flawlessly.

Welcome to my 365 day Low Carb Challenge
Low Carb Blog | Low Carb Recipes | Low Carb Tips and Info
RECIPE: Veal Chops with Artichoke Heart Cream Sauce
2 Veal chops (bone-in, approx. 8 oz. ea)
1 T butter
1/2 C heavy cream
1/3 C marinated artichoke hearts, chopped
Salt & pepper to taste
1/2 t ground nutmeg
Heat a heavy pan to very hot. Salt & pepper veal chops and add to dry, hot pan. Sear on both sides until browned. About 2-3 minutes a side. Remove from pan and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium and pour half the cream into the pan while stirring. Be sure to scrape up all the brown bits left from the searing. This is where a lot of the flavor is. Next add the chopped artichoke hearts and stir for a couple of minutes. Then add the rest of the cream and the veal chops back to the pan. The sauce should simmer for about 7-8 minutes while the veal chops finish cooking and the sauce slowly thickens.
Be careful not to overheat the sauce or it will separate and turn into a mess. Place the chops on a plate and then finish the sauce with the butter and nutmeg stirring them in quickly. Taste and add extra salt if needed and pour sauce over the chops.

Primary tumours prepare the lung for invasion by inducing factors that guide migration of both inflammatory and tumour cells to the lung according to a study in the December issue of Nature Cell Biology.
Many solid tumours develop through a process of metastasis, where the cancer spreads from the primary site to other places in the body. Metastasis reduces both the chances of treatment and underlies late stage symptoms, yet research into the process is in its infancy.
Sachie Hiratsuka and colleagues studied tumour-bearing mice and found that certain proteins called chemokines are induced in the lung by a set of factors secreted by the primary tumour. The chemokines induce migration of both inflammatory and tumour cells to the lung. An amplifying circuit is created between the primary tumour and the premetastatic tissue to facilitate metastatic tumour invasion. Interrupting this circuit of signals between the primary tumour and cells in the lung efficiently blocked lung metastases in mice.
Blocking migration of tumour cells to the metastatic sites at an early stage presents a promising clinical avenue to prevent the spread of cancer.

Carrying a concealed weapon (CCW) is a responsibility that comes with numerous benefits, but also several important considerations, one of which is reciprocity.
Simply put, CCW reciprocity refers to the legal recognition of your firearm carrying permit in states other than the one in which it was issued.
Understanding the extent of this recognition is crucial for permit holders who plan on traveling to different states, as failure to comply with each state’s specific regulations can lead to severe consequences.
The reciprocity of a particular CCW license varies greatly from state to state, making it imperative for individuals to research and familiarize themselves with the laws of their destination.
Each state has its unique regulations, with some offering broad reciprocity, while others are more restrictive.
The question of which CCW license covers the most states is an intriguing one that many people are curious about.
The CCW license with the most state coverage is held by Idaho and Michigan, with 39 states honoring their permits. South Dakota follows closely with 38 states honoring its permit. However, the number of reciprocating states may not necessarily reflect the quality or ease of obtaining a concealed carry permit in that state, as laws and regulations can vary widely.
Please note that this information is solely based on research and should not be viewed as legal advice.
It is the responsibility of each permit holder to stay informed about the specific legal requirements associated with their concealed carry permit while traveling.
CCW Reciprocity Explained
CCW reciprocity refers to the legal authority granted by one state to recognize a concealed carry permit issued by another state.
It is essential for permit holders, as it can significantly impact their ability to legally carry a concealed weapon when traveling across state lines.
Reciprocal agreements between states vary, and it’s crucial for individuals to familiarize themselves with the laws and regulations of the states they plan to visit.
Each state has its own laws regarding concealed carry permits and reciprocity agreements.
In some cases, a state may recognize permits from all other states, while in others, only permits from specific states are honored.
The number of states that a concealed carry permit covers can differ significantly based on the issuing state.
Understanding the differences between state laws and being aware of which states have reciprocity agreements with your issuing state is crucial for those who wish to carry concealed weapons across state lines.
It is the individual’s responsibility to know and abide by these laws, as ignorance will not be an acceptable defense in case of any legal consequences.
To find out more about the reciprocity between different states, you can use resources like the USCCA Concealed Carry Reciprocity Map or USA Carry’s Concealed Carry Permit Reciprocity Maps.
These resources provide up-to-date information on states’ reciprocity agreements and can help you stay informed on the legality of carrying a concealed weapon when traveling.
In summary, understanding CCW reciprocity and state variance plays a critical role in ensuring a concealed carry permit holder remains within the bounds of the law, especially when visiting other states.
Proper research and awareness of state regulations are essential for responsible gun ownership and exercising the right to carry a concealed weapon without any unnecessary risks or legal consequences.
Legal Obligations and Consequences
Familiarizing Yourself with State and Local Laws
When carrying a concealed weapon across state lines, it is crucial to acquaint yourself with the state and local laws governing concealed carry in each jurisdiction.
Every state has unique requirements, restrictions, and permitted locations for carrying concealed firearms.
By understanding the specifics of each state’s laws, you can avoid unintentional violations that may lead to legal consequences.
Some key factors to consider include magazine capacity limits, weapon and ammunition types, and specific locations where concealed carry is prohibited.
Furthermore, staying updated on any changes in regulations is essential, as laws may evolve over time.
Penalties for Violations
Carrying a concealed weapon without proper knowledge or adherence to state and local laws can result in severe consequences.
The penalties for violating concealed carry regulations often vary depending on the state and can include fines, loss of your permit, or even imprisonment.
Law enforcement takes the responsibility of concealed carry permit holders very seriously.
Ignorance of the law is not a valid excuse for violating it.
Permit holders must be cautious and always stay informed about the legal requirements of every state they visit.
Here are some examples of penalties for concealed carry violations in different states:
- Alabama: Carrying a concealed weapon without a permit can result in a Class A misdemeanor with a fine of up to $6,000 and imprisonment for up to one year.
- California: Carrying a concealed weapon without a permit can be charged as either a misdemeanor or a felony, punishable by imprisonment for up to three years and/or a fine of up to $10,000.
- Florida: Carrying a concealed weapon without a permit is a third-degree felony, punishable by up to five years in prison and/or a fine of up to $5,000.
In conclusion, concealed carry reciprocity is an important aspect of exercising your right to bear arms in different jurisdictions.
However, it is your responsibility to research and familiarize yourself with the specific laws of every state to ensure compliance and avoid facing the severe consequences of violations.
Remember, knowledge is power, and staying informed is the key to navigating the complex landscape of state-by-state concealed carry laws.
CCW License with the Highest Coverage
Research and Information
Concealed carry reciprocity is an essential factor to consider for those who hold a CCW license and travel frequently.
While researching the licenses and permits that grant the highest coverage across states, we’ve gathered data that helps visualize the reciprocity agreements for each state.
It is important to remember that this information serves as a starting point and should not be considered legal advice.
Always consult local laws, official state websites, and resources for the most up-to-date information.
This table provides an overview of how many states honor a particular state’s CCW license and how many states are reciprocating with the listed state.
Some state licenses offer wider coverage for residents, allowing them to carry their concealed weapons in numerous other states.
Note that different states may have varying age requirements, and resident permits may sometimes have different reciprocity agreements than non-resident permits.
Always check local and state laws when traveling with a firearm to avoid legal complications.
State-Specific Requirements and Laws
When it comes to concealed carry permits and regulations, states have different approaches to issuing and recognizing permits.
Each state has its unique set of laws and requirements, which may be categorized into three broad sub-sections: Constitutional Carry, Shall Issue vs. May Issue, and Resident vs. Non-Resident Permits.
Constitutional Carry refers to states that do not require a permit to carry a concealed firearm for law-abiding citizens.
These states believe in the right to carry without any government interference, according to the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. Currently, a number of states, such as Texas, Alaska, and Arizona, have adopted the Constitutional Carry approach.
Shall Issue vs. May Issue
Shall Issue and May Issue states have different ways of processing concealed carry permit applications.
- Shall Issue: In these states, the issuing authorities are required to grant the permit if the applicant meets all legal requirements. This means that, as long as the person applying fulfills the necessary criteria, obtaining a permit is almost guaranteed. Examples of shall issue states include North Carolina and Oregon.
- May Issue: Conversely, in May Issue states, the authorities have the discretion to grant or deny the permit even if the applicant meets all legal requirements. This means that, in these states, there might be additional scrutiny or subjective judgment involved in issuing the permit, and approval is not guaranteed.
Resident vs. Non-Resident Permits
Another aspect to consider is the availability of concealed carry permits for residents versus non-residents.
Some states may offer non-resident permits, allowing individuals from other states to legally carry a concealed firearm within the state’s borders.
However, non-resident permits might not be honored by as many states compared to resident permits.
- Resident Permits: A resident permit is issued to individuals who are residents of the issuing state. The majority of states issue permits exclusively to their residents, with some even offering discounts or benefits to residents applying for concealed carry permits.
- Non-Resident Permits: Non-resident permits are issued to individuals who reside outside the issuing state. These permits might have different fees or requirements and may offer varying levels of reciprocity with other states. States such as Florida and Arizona are known for issuing non-resident permits.
In conclusion, it is essential to be familiar with and understand the state-specific concealed carry requirements and laws in both your resident state and any states you plan to visit.
Each state has unique regulations, and it is crucial to be aware of them to ensure legal and responsible firearm handling.
Application Process and Background Checks
When applying for a CCW license, there are certain steps to follow and requirements to meet. Let’s look at the application process, background checks, fees, and documents needed for obtaining a concealed carry permit.
Fees and Documents
Each state has its own set of fees and required documentation for a CCW application. Generally, applicants must provide:
- A completed application form
- A valid government-issued photo ID, such as a driver’s license
- Proof of residency, such as a utility bill or lease agreement
- Proof of firearms training or safety course completion, if required by the state
- Payment of application fee, which can vary widely depending on the state
Some states may also require fingerprinting as part of the application process.
Background Check Procedure
A key component of the CCW application process is the background check conducted by the issuing authority.
This process ensures that applicants meet the legal requirements to possess a firearm and do not have any criminal history that would disqualify them from obtaining a permit.
During a background check, the applicant’s information is typically checked against:
- State and federal criminal databases
- Mental health records
- Restraining orders and domestic violence convictions
- Denials or revocations of previous firearm applications
If an applicant has a clean record and passes the background check, they will likely be granted a CCW permit, barring any other disqualifying factors as determined by the state.
It is important to remember that each state has its own laws and requirements regarding concealed carry permits, so it is essential to research your specific state’s regulations.
Remember that ultimately, it is the responsibility of the individual applying for a CCW license to understand and abide by their state’s laws and regulations.
Always ensure you are familiar with the necessary fees, required documents, and background check procedures before applying for a concealed carry permit.
Denial and Revocation of CCW Permits
Reasons for Denial
There are several reasons why a concealed carry permit application may be denied. Common factors include:
- Criminal history, particularly convictions for crimes involving violence or illegal use of firearms
- Restraining orders or history of domestic violence
- Mental health concerns or history of involuntary psychiatric treatment
- Drug or alcohol abuse
- Falsifying information on the permit application
- Failure to meet state-specific requirements, such as training, age, or residency
It’s important to note that each state has its own laws and regulations, so the specific reasons for denial may vary.
In some locations, the sheriff may review applications and make the decision to approve or deny a permit.
If an application is denied, the sheriff is required to provide a written explanation for their decision.
In the event of a CCW permit denial or revocation, an individual has the right to appeal the decision.
The appeal process may differ significantly between states, so it is essential to become familiar with the local laws and procedures.
In some cases, the appeal process involves submitting a written challenge to the decision and presenting it to the appropriate authority, such as the Chief District Court Judge in the applicant’s county of residence.
Other states may require a hearing before a judge or a review by a designated board or panel.
During the appeal process, it is crucial to consult with an attorney experienced in firearm laws to help navigate the complexities of the legal system and improve the chances of a successful appeal.
Applicants should be prepared to address the specific reasons for denial, provide additional documentation or evidence, and comply with any statute requirements to support their case.
In conclusion, while some individuals might initially face denial or revocation of their CCW permit, they should keep in mind that there is an appeal process available to challenge the decision.
It is essential, however, to research and understand the specific laws and regulations of the jurisdiction in question and seek qualified legal counsel to aid in the appeal process.
Firearm Training and Safety
In many states, acquiring a CCW license involves meeting certain training requirements.
These courses typically cover topics such as gun safety, legal aspects of concealed carry, and proper use of force.
Some states, like Florida, Michigan, Nebraska, Ohio, and the Carolinas, require live-fire training for a concealed carry permit.
However, 32 states allow people to carry guns without live-fire safety training.
It is essential to check your state’s training requirements to ensure you are in compliance with local laws.
Safe Handling of Firearms
Safe handling of firearms is a critical aspect of firearm training and should be practiced by all gun owners, regardless of experience.
Some key points for the safe handling of firearms include:
- Always treat every firearm as if it is loaded.
- Keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot.
- Always point the muzzle of the firearm in a safe direction.
- Be aware of your target and what is beyond it.
- Properly store firearms when not in use to prevent unauthorized access.
It is important to learn and practice these safety principles to minimize the potential of firearm-related incidents.
In conclusion, firearm training and safety are essential for anyone who owns or handles firearms.
By understanding the training requirements for your state and practicing safe handling techniques, you can help ensure that you use your firearm responsibly and with the utmost safety in mind.
Concealed Carry Laws and Restrictions
Carrying in Public Spaces
Concealed carry laws and restrictions vary significantly from state to state, with some states having more lenient regulations while others impose stricter requirements.
In general, concealed carry permits are recognized by certain states under a concept known as CCW reciprocity.
It is important to understand the specific carrying laws in public spaces for each state, as they can vary widely in terms of permit requirements, designated gun-free zones, and other restrictions.
Alcohol and Concealed Carry
Another area where concealed carry laws can differ is in relation to alcohol consumption and carrying a firearm.
Some states have clear restrictions on carrying a concealed weapon while under the influence of alcohol, whereas others have more vague or lenient rules.
In certain states, it is illegal to consume any amount of alcohol while carrying a firearm, while some states may set a specific blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit.
In general, it is always essential to research the specific concealed carry laws and restrictions in each state before traveling or carrying a firearm, especially when dealing with public spaces and alcohol.
Always review the most recent regulations and consult with an attorney if uncertain.
It is the responsibility of the individual to be familiar with the applicable laws, as ignorance of them may lead to severe consequences.
CCW Permit Impact on Crime and Violence
Crime Rates and Statistics
The impact of CCW permits on crime and violence has been a topic of public debate for quite some time.
Some studies suggest that states with higher rates of concealed carry permits tend to experience lower levels of crime, while others argue that there is no clear correlation between the two factors.
A study from the Crime Prevention Research Center indicates that states with higher rates of concealed carry generally have lower rates of violent crime.
It’s something to chew on if you are on the fence and looking for more information.
Public Safety Concerns
Public safety concerns are often raised in discussions surrounding CCW permits, as there are instances where permit holders can become involved in violent incidents.
While it is true that some individuals with concealed carry permits may engage in criminal activities or misuse their firearms, studies have shown that the majority of permit holders are law-abiding citizens.
Nevertheless, it is crucial for those who carry concealed weapons to undergo proper firearm training and maintain a high level of responsibility for their actions in order to minimize any potential risks to public safety.
In conclusion, the relationship between CCW permits and crime and violence is complex and multifaceted.
Further research is needed to better understand the impact of these permits on society as a whole, taking into account various factors that may affect crime rates and public safety.
In the meantime, it remains essential for permit holders to prioritize responsible firearm ownership and use, and for lawmakers and citizens alike to consider the broader implications of CCW policies.
Concealed carry reciprocity plays a crucial role in determining the effectiveness of a CCW license when traveling across state lines.
As this table illustrates, each state has a different number of states that honor their CCW license and reciprocating states.
Some states, like Alabama, have a substantial number of states recognizing their permit, while others, like California or New York, have fewer or no reciprocity agreements.
It is essential for responsible gun owners who wish to carry concealed firearms to be informed about the laws and reciprocity agreements of both their home state and any states they may travel to.
This involves individual research on state and local laws, ensuring compliance, and understanding the potential legal consequences of carrying firearms in non-reciprocal states.
Using this information as a starting point, concealed carry permit holders can make more informed decisions regarding their personal safety and the legal carry of firearms while traveling outside of their home state.

While the federal and provincial governments grapple with COVID-19, we have seen the private sector and Canadian firms take initiatives in addressing business gaps and also combat the pandemic to benefit their workers and customers.
These initiatives have included protective measures, such as putting up Plexiglas barriers, and philanthropy, such as offering meals for those in need. While those are important, corporate Canada can support its workers, ordinary Canadians, address COVID-19 and benefit from the opportunity — by proactively engaging in Corporate Social Responsibility.
According to Kernaghan Webb, professor of law and business at Ryerson University and founding director of the Institute of Corporate Social Responsibility, CSR goes beyond philanthropy, or a pure focus on economics (such as increasing profits).
CSR is commonly misunderstood by the public and the business world as acts of philanthropy, which can often cynically be perceived as either marketing or public-relations efforts.
Instead, under ISO26000, an internationally established definition adopted by the Canadian government, CSR means companies pursuing socially beneficial environmental, social and economic objectives to benefit all of society.
More fundamentally, instead of acts of philanthropy or symbolic public relations efforts, CSR is about pursuing disruptive or fundamental business model changes to achieve improvements for our society.
Consider Toronto’s HomeCare Hub. Founded by Dr. Vipan Nikore, an MD and an MBA graduate of Yale University, HomeCare Hub is an online community of service providers and agencies that offers a “one-stop” marketplace for institutions like nursing homes and individuals or families in need of hiring critical personal support workers (PSWs), nurses, respite, live-in care and other health-care workers and services.
HomeCare Hub stepped in to fill critical health-care staff shortages when there were outbreaks in several nursing homes in Toronto in the spring. The company is not thriving only because of COVID-19: it offers a community solution by providing holistic care. This includes providing a free help line for clients to speak to social workers and also a free seniors’ chat line to address the unprecedented social isolation and mental health issues facing many seniors and other clients enduring the pandemic.
Instead of burdening an overtaxed health-care system with an influx of patients to hospitals, HomeCare Hub is a private-sector solution to let patients stay safe and well at home. While most patients get two hours of home care per day under public health, HomeCare Hub provides an easily accessible marketplace to find additional private care to maintain their independence and quality of living.
Nikore is also the medical director for TD Bank through his role as a doctor with the Cleveland Clinic based in Toronto. Nikore started an initiative for the bank to expand its HR department to help in contact tracing of its employees.
Contact tracing, rather than necessarily being a business opportunity to make money, is a CSR organizational opportunity, allowing corporations to be at the forefront of public health, protecting workers, their customers and the public. TD also offers a helpline for employees to talk about their mental-health challenges.
The strides that TD is making serves an example of the importance of private-sector firms working with health-care organizations like the Cleveland Clinic to be leaders in the health care of their employees. The clinic counts 15 companies as clients in these efforts.
There are opportunities for other hospitals and health-care organizations in Ontario and the rest of Canada to follow the clinic’s initiatives and work with local corporations to help transform health care and public health for the better.
Transformative CSR can be seen in other emerging private-sector solutions such as Loblaw’s partnership with League, which is making health care across Canada digitally accessible for its health app users — and also offering PC Optimum points to encourage healthier lifestyle choices.
The reliance on an online-health operating system could lead to transformative change in Loblaw’s business that will let its shoppers have better information management of their health, and more health-care choices, while increasing its bottom line.
In another example of transformative CSR, as a first in the gas industry in Canada, Shell has introduced a carbon-offset option that allows consumers to pay two cents per litre extra to make their purchases carbon-neutral.
Importantly, CSR is not about public relations stunts, but businesses or firms leading transformative change by fundamentally altering their business models to benefit our workers, consumers and society.
Correction - Dec. 7, 2020: This article was edited from a previous version that misspelled Dr. Vipan Nikore’s surname.

Ok. The blocks are (almost) squared. Now I have six canvases to play and try to find
the hidden world on them, searching on the triangles, squares, and round shapes,
and make them come out with embroidery floss, silk, lace and buttons.
Any suggestions or ideas?

It is the door of a cave under an old stable

I've just set up a store selling direct MP3 downloads of the Random House audiobook for my last novel, Makers
, thanks to the good offices of Random House Audio, the eShop WordPress plugin, and Mike Little, my WordPress tech guy.
The Makers audiobook runs 18.5 hours and is formatted for burning onto 15 CDs. It's read by Bernadette Dunne. I really like Dunne's reading (here's a sample) and RHA's production job is tops. The MP3s are 128K/44KHz.
I get an additional 20 percent on top of my customary royalty if you buy it from me, and you get a book that has no DRM and no crappy "license agreement" requiring you to turn over your firstborn in exchange for the privilege of handing me your hard-earned money.
Right now, sales are only available through PayPal, though I hope that'll change soon. And if this is successful, I hope to add the audio for Little Brother and my forthcoming YA novel, For the Win.

South Korea’s potential growth rate has declined for decades, reflecting the nation’s aging society, slowing capital accumulation and changing job market, a think tank report showed on August 18.
Asia’s fourth-largest economy’s potential growth rate – gross domestic product (GDP) per capita aged 15 and over – by decade came to an average 2.1 per cent in the 2010s, compared with 7.6 per cent in the 1980s, according to the Korea Economic Research Institute (Keri). The figure has been gradually falling, with 5.3 per cent in the 1990s and 3.8 per cent in the 2000s.
A potential growth is the rate of economic expansion a country can sustain over the medium term without excess inflation. It has overall declined in advanced economies in recent decades.
The think tank took total factor productivity, capital accumulation, labour hours and employment per decade into account when calculating the growth rates. As a result, all areas expect employment rate have been declining in recent decades.
Total factor productivity (TFT) – a measure of productive efficiency by measuring the size of output from “unseen” inputs including labour, capital and regulations – fell to 2.9 per cent in the 2010s from 6.4 per cent in the 1980s. The figure stood at 4.2 per cent in the 1990s and 4.1 per cent in the 2000s.
Capital accumulation reached its peak at 2.1 per cent in the 1990s from 0.7 per cent in the 1980s, then sharply fell to 0.3 per cent in the 2000s. It stood flat at zero per cent in the 2010s.
Average labour hours came to minus 1.2 per cent in the 2010s, compared with 0.1 per cent in the 1980s. It stood at 0.8 per cent and 0.9 per cent in the 1990s and 2000s, respectively.
Meanwhile, the employment rate has steadily hovered around 0.4 per cent in the cited decades, Keri said.
The think tank voiced concerns that the slowing pace of the potential growth could eventually pull the economy down into negative growth, if the issues remain unresolved. The changing labour market affected by the nation’s declining birthrate and the aging population trend is likely to further drag down the growth potential, it added.
The nation has been slowly morphing into an aged society. The number of senior citizens, or people aged 65 and older, came to 8.21 million as of November, data from Statistics Korea showed, accounting for 16.4 per cent of the total population. The economy is projected to become a super-aged society in 2025, when those aged 65 and older account for 20 per cent of the population.
The total fertility rate – the average number of children a woman bears in her lifetime – hit a new record low of 0.84 last year, the same data showed. It marked the third straight year that the rate was below one per cent.
Overall, South Korea’s total population grew slightly in the cited period, as more Koreans living overseas returned home due to the global Covid-19 pandemic. A total of 51.83 million people lived in South Korea as of November 1, up 0.1 per cent or 50,000 year-on-year.
“Since there is a limit to supply in labour and capital, Korea must boost its total factor productivity to nurture its growth potential,” said Choo Kwang-ho, the head of Keri‘s economy policy division.
“In order to achieve that, an overhaul of the strict business regulations, tax benefits and support for more research and development must be implemented,” Choo added.
