According to the new rules, all tobacco products must be hidden from sight except when staff are serving customers, or restocking. Those in breach of the law could face fines of up to £5000 or even imprisonment.
Currently the ban only applies to shops covering more than 280 square meters. Smaller stores are exempt until 2015.
‘We cannot ignore the fact that young people are recruited into smoking by colourful, eye-catching, cigarette displays,’ said the British health minister, Anne Milton.
‘Most adult smokers started smoking as teenagers and we need to stop this trend’¦ Banning displays of cigarettes and tobacco will help young people resist the pressure to start smoking and help the thousands of adults in England who are currently trying to quit.’
Similar bans in South Africa
‘We hope that the South African Minister of Health will do everything in his power to protect public health, and that would include considerations such as a partial or even total ban on displays of tobacco products,’ said Peter Ucko of the National Council Against Smoking (NCAS) in South Africa.
According to Ucko, there is ample scientific evidence that display bans work. ‘The tobacco industry place adverts in the form of signs, change mats or other displays on shop counters. In some cases, these displays are illuminated and have moving images and interactive features,’ he said.
Tobacco brand names are placed on these eye-catching displays and have become a ‘normal part of daily life’ for people who frequent these shops, including children.
‘What the tobacco industry does is criminal,’ said Ucko. ‘Often these displays are right next to sweets and products for young people and children. Brand exposure influences people and particularly the youth to take up smoking.’
According to Ucko, limiting tobacco displays at retail are being considered in South Africa, and new regulation in this regard is on the cards.
It is estimated that there are between 5 and 7 million smokers in South Africa, and 44 400 people die of smoking in this country alone each year.

BEMS & Smart charging: a multi asset approach towards comfort at the lowest possible cost
As a result of a more and more congested distribution grids, and with time-of-use energy prices on the rise, “smart” charging infrastructure becomes an increasing necessity for prosumers & SME’s. Under that smart hood, a wide array of techniques are commercially available today however. A future proof solution should handle multiple assets (cars, but also storage, HP, ..) and should plan for multiple purposes (peaks, ToU, AC, ..). At VITO/EnergyVille we are preaching model predictive control, compared to AI or rule-based solutions in order to avoid lack-of-data-issues and expensive yet biased learning curves. Our technology is currently tested at different commercial customer sites. We love to show you some of our results, and tell you why we believe we are on the right track.

"All the cosmetic divisions have made a good start to the year and the achievements in each geographical zone are in line with our expectations," said L'Oréal's CEO Lindsay Owen-Jones.
L'Oréal reported consolidated sales of €3.7 billion, up 5.4 per cent - based on constant group structure and exchange rates - in comparrison to a year earlier for the first quarter of 2004 ended 31 March. The impact of currency fluctuations resulted in a drop of 4.5 per cent however for the same period.
The active cosmetics division showed the greatest growth overall with a 15.7 per cent increase to €273 million in comparrison to the previous year. Consumer sales remained the most profitable division for the company achieving €2 billion in sales despite a fairly stagnant growth in comparrison to a year earlier.
"These figures seem extremely encouraging even if we attach only relative importance to the performance of a single quarter. It should be noted that the first quarter of last year was particularly strong reflecting the decision at the time to bring forward launches notably in the Consumer Division," said Owen-Jones.
In West Europe growth remained stagnant but progression came on top of a particularly high base of comparison for the previous year claimed the company - when the region turned out L'Oréal's best operating profit of 14.8 per cent.
In North America, L'Oréal's core market, sales growth fell by 5.7 per cent but continued to be successful in light of the 12.9 per cent profit margin achieved for the year in 2003.
"In the coming months a more favourable historical comparison should allow us to further improve our growth rate. The impact of currency fluctuations, once again strongly negative at the end of March, should be noticeably reduced over the rest of the year, based on present exchange rates," said Owen-Jones.
The rest of the world achieved double-digit rates of growth with Asia returning €313 million in sales, a 13.3 per cent growth in comparrison to the previous year.
The acquisition of the controlling interest in Shu Uemura in Japan, and of Mininurse in China, led to a net structural impact of 0.4 per cent.
However the company's dermatology business was confronted with difficult conditions in the United States - L'Oréal's core market. Sales growth in the US dropped by 12.6 per cent in comparrison to the same quarter in 2003.
L'Oréal, the maker of Maybelline and Lancome make-up, posted a 13.5 per cent rise in annual net operating profits for 2003, from €1.46 billion in 2002 to €1.65 billion, outperforming the analyst forecast of €1.61 billion.

MANILA – An alleged ex-member of the vigilante group, Davao Death Squad (DDS), admitted Thursday that then Davao City Mayor now President Rodrigo Duterte himself ordered killings in the city from 1988 to 2013.
During the resumption of the Senate inquiry into suspected drug-related extrajudicial killings, a certain Edgar Matubato, 57, said he was a scout ranger when then Mayor Duterte recruited him as a member of the Lambada Boys tasked to kill criminals in the late 1980s.
The gray-haired Matubato said that the Lambada Boys became known as the Davao Death Squad sometime in the 1990s after the group was tasked to bomb a mosque in retaliation for a cathedral bomb attack in the city.
Matubato said the group was led by SPO4 Arthur Lascañas, who was described then as the “most powerful” police officer in the city that even generals took orders from him.
He enumerated a series of killings the group was tasked to accomplish, including that of suspected terrorist Sali Makdum in 2002.
The witness said they would sometimes be ordered to kill even non-criminals, citing the killing of bodyguards of then mayoral candidate Prospero Nograles who ran against Duterte in 2010.
He said that Nograles’ bodyguards were kidnapped and brought to Samal Island to be strangled, cut open and thrown into the sea.
Also killed were a certain Richard King who was a rival of incumbent Vice Mayor Paolo Duterte over a woman; radio reporter and critic of Duterte, Jun Pala; and an unnamed fixer who worked at the Land Transportation Office (LTO) among others, he added.
He said that aside from killing them via strangling or stabbing, one of their victims was also killed by being fed to a crocodile. Matubato said he has killed more or less 50 persons.
He also claimed that Vice Mayor Paolo Duterte himself used shabu. The current administration is waging an all-out war against illegal drugs.
The inquiry was led by Chair of the Senate Committee on Justice and Human Rights, Senator Leila de Lima, who said that the revelations have given her a headache.
Senator Antonio “Sonny” Trillanes IV meanwhile recommended that Matubato to be placed under the Witness Protection Program in the Senate.
Meanwhile, Senator Alan Peter Cayetano, a staunch supporter of Duterte, pointed out the importance of examining Matubato’s credibility, especially since anything that could happen to him would immediately be blamed on the President.
The Senate inquiry into extrajudicial killings is ongoing.

A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce Term Paper
Updated: Mar 25th, 2019
A portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce goes down in history as one of the most excellent books of literature. Although there are other characters in the book, the story is centered on Stephen Dedalus. He is raised in a staunch catholic home by his father, mother, Uncle Charles and Aunt Dante.
Other minor characters in the book are Stephen’s friends, the priests and Emma. Religion plays an important role in the book. It is a symbol of the state of Ireland during that period. Growing up, Stephen is dedicated to following the beliefs of the church. Later on, the protagonist rebels from his religion and adopts an extremely dangerous lifestyle of drinking and uniting his body with prostitutes.
After hearing the speech of a priest he cleans up his act and becomes extremely devoted to his religion again. The extreme lifestyle that Stephen adopts forces him to make a stand about his life. As the book comes to the end, we see Stephen moving on to a life of liberty outside Ireland (Joyce 247).
The most unique aspect of the book is the author’s innovative use of sense to describe the thoughts and feelings of the character. The author takes us on a journey of the transformation of the character’s mind. All the developments are internal. It is difficult to comprehend where conversation starts or ends due to lack of quotation inscription in the entire book (Joyce 6).
The senses capture how his mind develops from the thinking of a susceptible child who is pushed around by a bully to a defiant young man who wants nothing to do with his religion. The conflict in his mind between the search for fulfillment in his gifting and pleasing his family is drawn out using sense. What Stephen hears, sees, touches, smells and tastes affects how his mind responds to life.
Sense is illustrated by what Stephen hears from his parents, relatives, governess, priests and friends. The story begins with Mr. Dedalus singing to his son (Joyce 7). Music is presented ubiquitously in the backdrop of the story. His mother also played the piano so he could dance.
At the same time, the conversations that Stephen heard at family dinners influenced his upbringing. During Christmas break, he was allowed to eat with the adults. At dinner, an argument erupted between his father and Aunt Dante; this argument exposed the young boy to politics (Joyce 31).
In the same sitting, his father forgot his presence at the table and spoke bad language. Furthermore, the words that Stephen heard from Aunt Dante had great influence on him. When Stephen expressed a desire to marry Eileen their protestant neighbor, his mother and aunt were very furious. Aunt Dante threatened that if Stephen did not apologize then the eagles would pluck off his eyes. This statement frightened the young boy.
Stephen reflected on the lyrics and tunes of different song throughout the story. His attitude and his thoughts are influenced by the words of the several songs. For example, as he was thinking about whether he should be part of Jesuits, he is dazed at how the local priest acts in response to a song playing from the road.
What he heard and saw made him realize that he could not become a priest (Joyce 80). In the last chapter, Stephen’s determination to find purpose through writing is reinforced. He feels a sense of peace when he hears a song done by a certain woman (Joyce 260). The words of the song prompt him to follow his decision to leave his country and pursue his talent.
Vision plays a significant role in the mind of the protagonist. The images that Stephen sees affect his interaction with his father. When his father gazes at him through a glass, he looks like his face is covered with hair. This picture makes Stephen realize that he is losing his connection with his father.
Likewise, in the first chapter, there are two colors mentioned that are symbolic of influential people in the Irish nationalist movement. These colors are green and maroon. It is fascinating how the character commits to memory seeing Aunt Dante tearing the green part off while telling him that the leader is a terrible man. This incidence was followed by constant argument between his father and his aunty about politics (Joyce 20). When he later sees the color green together with maroon in a map he is confused as he tries to take sides.
As a child, Stephen’s visual understanding of color is also tested in a math contest. In this competition there are two opposing teams red and white. What he sees represents conflict. During his struggle to find a balance in his religious life, he sees a young woman walking along the beach.
The picture of this woman represents righteousness. He therefore makes a resolution to celebrate his existence and appreciate mankind. Another example is the picture of a skull he sees in church. The skull is a representation of the death of Christ. The skull relates the sacrifice of Christ to the priesthood calling.
Similarly, the sense of vision is strongly demonstrated when the Dedalus family shifts to Dublin. Stephen contrasts the clean countryside they had left with the dirty city full of scum. In chapter five, Stephen watches birds flying from the university library and relates it to freedom (Joyce 250).
He observes the outline created by birds in the sky and imagines what the future holds for him. Vision is once again demonstrated in chapter two; Stephen is frustrated as he observes his family’s financial position going downhill. Likewise, he is depressed that his uncle can no longer walk with him because his body is growing frail.
Touch has been used in the book to demonstrate emotional and physical feelings. When he woke up sick after being pushed in a pool of dirty water, the prefect felt his forehead to verify that he was sick. His forehead felt hot and damp (Joyce 13). Both physical and emotional pain is expressed by the character in school.
He thought the school prefect would be understanding and shake his hands after he was excused from class. However, the prefect gave him a beating instead. Stephen was disappointed, humiliated and frustrated by this turn of events. Another good example of emotional feeling is shown following Stephen’s rebellion; he listens to a sermon that causes him to think about his eternity as a sinner. He experiences fear when he thinks about the consequences of the sins he had committed.
To show how repentant he was, Stephen exercised disciplines such as carrying rosary beads in his pocket so he could feel them as he went about his duties. Touch is shown in chapter two when the young Dedalus spends time with his father moving from one bar to another. He is ashamed at how his father’s drinking has made him disconnect with realism. Similarly, this feeling of failure drives him to spend the night with a prostitute after he realizes that his prize money was not enough to bring his family together.
In the initial sections of the book, smell is used to depict the affection of a young boy. Stephen reveals how his mother’s scent was nicer than his father. As a child he also remembers wetting his bed and the smell of the oil sheet his mother put on his bed whenever he wet his bed.
Additionally, the sense of smell has been used to bring out the feeling Stephen had when he was about to be sick after being thrown in a pool by the school bully. The water was cold, filthy and smelly. Amazingly, the smell of his first Christian dinner was engraved in his mind.
The smell of turkey and celery made him feel so happy (Joyce 15). In addition, Stephen was able to distinguish the smell in the chapel and the smell of the old deprived people who knelt at the church during mass. The sense of smell is illustrated in chapter three when the preacher described hell as a stinking prison full of demons.
Food was used as a distraction during dinner. Mr. Dedalus forgot that his son was sitting by the table and was about to use improper language. On realizing his mistake he responded by heaping food on Stephen’s plate and serving the rest large portions of turkey.
The sense of taste is moreover illustrated in chapter three, Stephen is in class daydreaming about the delicious food he desired to have after school. His thoughts were focused on the tasty mutton stew served with potatoes and carrots. The final example of taste is exemplified in the last chapter. Stephen is frustrated with the financial state of his family after eating a poor meal.
The Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is centered on the development of the mind of Stephen Dedalus from a young susceptible boy to a strong willed man. Sense has been used to describe the thoughts going through the mind of the character. These senses include; hearing, seeing, touch, smell and taste.

A 5'3" base from Vancouver, Wash., Kaile Michaud joins the Ducks after being a member of the Thunder Elite All-Star Cheerleading team. Michaud's resume includes two NCA National Titles.
"You will see Kaile at either the base or top position," said Mulkey. "I am pretty sure she is going to be able to do whatever we ask her to do, and her persistence is what impressed us. She is a great student and will excel on and off the mat."
An NCA All-American in 2012, Hannah Lichtenthaler will give UO some added versatility as she doubles as a base and a back. Lichtenthaler has been competing in all-star cheerleading for ten years and has been a member of Oregon Dream Teams for six years. Her impressive resume also includes two state titles with her high school team and an Acro group state title in 2010. In 2012, she was top five in the all-state individual competition.
"At this point she is our only Oregon signee, said Mulkey. "Her versatility at the base and back position will make her an asset and her clean tumbling technique has a lot of potential. Her athletic skills speak for themselves, but her attitude, work ethic and positive mindset sealed the deal for us. She is going to fit right into our program and the Oregon philosophy."
Michaud and Lichtenthaler will join Oregon's seven fall signees Krista Phillips, Jalen Kirkland, Blaire Wilson, Jordyn Fox, Rachel Block, Taylr Keating and Taylor Turner on campus in the fall of 2013.
The Ducks wrapped up the 2013 season in winning fashion on Friday, April 26th in Quinnipiac, Conn., as they won their third straight NCATA National Championship.

Sine Tempore – Today on Kickstarter!
Taking you back to a faraway past, thousands of years before Nova Aetas, exploring new worlds in search of a new home to colonize. You are brave heroes that during your tough journey come across a primordial planet, “Primevus V”, one that you can colonize. Its harsh environment and local species will give you a challenge to remember, facing “Primaevi”, creatures born to fight and hunt, the deadly armored “Faun” warriors along with little guys with a Gatling Gun called “Spriggans”, the powerful spell crafting Witch or the huge “Bull-y” with his two-handed axes… one on each hand.
This is a strategic tactical co-op for 1-4 heroes, fighting local enemies through a campaign designed to be replayed with different paths each time, leading to up to three different endings.
The base game comes with 4 Hero miniatures but more may be unlocked through the KS campaign. Each hero has their own unique abilities and a pack of cards with equips and upgrades which you will use to turn the tables on your enemies. During your search mission, you will find vital resources that will help you survive and also use many of your cards to unleash special attacks and vanish anything that threatens your goal. Lastly, an “end game” system will help you to develop your character through a modern tree skill system and a crafting mechanism inspired by “Nova Aetas”. This way, your hero has a different skill path each time, depending on the Specialization you choose, and before each mission-battle you can have up to five of them, so, decide wisely.
Enemies in the game have their own behaviors, following their own path, one that you don`t want to cross. A competitive AI will give you a hard time and every choice will have an impact on the gameplay, making an epic journey that will challenge you every time. Also, the game comes with beautiful detailed modular tiles for premade scenario set-ups or customizable ones.
Sine Tempore will be live on Kickstarter later today, offering highly detailed miniatures along with the components mentioned above and some unique models for KS backers!

The Au Cheval folks opened a deli, and it looks glorious
Being a credible Jewish deli doesn’t mean having a signed headshot of Larry King on your wall -- it means being serious about the noshables, like this house-cured corned beef, which's brined for 10 days, steamed, and stuffed by the half-pound in each rye sandwich. That’s just what Brendan Sodikoff (Au Cheval, Gilt Bar, Bavette’s) has in this Old World deli packed with Jewish favorites like smoked pastrami, knishes, tongue Reubens, and a potato chip Caesar salad that may have you loosening your borscht belt.
The dim, throwback aesthetic will feel familiar to anyone who's dined in Dillman's sibling establishments. The space is divided into a coffee bar and bakery offering communal seating as well as fresh bagels, a cocktail bar where you can put back a Negroni or Saratoga, and a dining room with cushy booth seating, chandeliers, and a fireplace (bearskin-lounging Burt Reynolds not included).
The lox and whitefish terrine has smoked whitefish folded with dill, pepper, and cream cheese, and's wrapped in smoked salmon (fish wrapped in fish like a fish Inception, or “Fishception”), served with house-made toast and horseradish sauce. Other terrine action includes duck & goat cheese or smoked foie gras.
This smoked mozzarella sandwich with avocado, tomato, sprouts, lettuce, and dijonnaise joins the sandwich lineup along with a Russian-style tongue Reuben and a fried beef bologna that’s made the jump from Au Cheval’s menu. Not making the jump after eating it: you.
For entrees, there’s roast beef French dip, chicken pot pie, and this broiled lemon-pepper salmon with dill potato salad.
If you’re not done knishing and knoshing, the latkes combine shredded potatoes & sauteed onions and're served with apple sauce and sour cream. It’s enough to make you swoon like Larry King shopping for suspenders.

What We Do
Education is central to the mission of the Osoyoos Desert Centre.
We believe exploring the unique and beautiful landscapes of our natural world encourages us to observe more deeply, fostering a curiosity and passion not only for this extraordinary part of Canada, but indeed for the rest of the world.
Osoyoos Desert Centre Tours
We offer guided and self-guided tours to give visitors the opportunity to experience Canada’s unique desert habitat. Private tours for groups and schools are also available upon request and special Feature Tours are held on select dates during the summer.
Boardwalk Trail Interpretive Signage
Along the boardwalk trail at the Osoyoos Desert Centre, interpretive signs have been installed to provide insights into the area’s habitat and wildlife.
Each year we provide educational tours to hundreds of students. Elementary through post-secondary classes are able to explore and learn about the local environment during specially-themed guided tours. Programs also include a chance to visit the hands-on displays in the interpretive building.
Learning about our natural history gives us a sense of belonging and incites a greater understanding of our place in the world. This understanding is essential to engaged citizenship and pride in our identity and the world around us. It is inclusive, transcending differences in gender, ethnicity, language, age, ability, geography and economic status and is applicable in varying disciplines including politics, economics, science, art, and business. We believe this understanding is fundamental to the ongoing strength of our communities.
In 2019 the Osoyoos Desert Centre was able to open a brand new space for its indoor interpretive exhibits. The interactive exhibits and displays augment the Centre’s other educational opportunities, including a 1.5 km boardwalk trail and native plant garden. In keeping with the Centre’s mission, the building was constructed and installed to minimize habitat disturbance and complement the beauty of the natural surroundings. The new interpretive building serves as a welcoming gateway to the Centre's site and most importantly, enables us to continue educating the public and conserving one of Canada’s most endangered ecosystems.
Native Plant Demonstration Garden
The term native plant is typically used to describe plants that grew in a particular area prior to the arrival of settlers. The South Okanagan is home to an incredible diversity of native grasses, flowers and shrubs and offers gardeners a variety of beautiful plants to use in their landscaping. Besides providing food and shelter for local wildlife, native plants save time and money by reducing water use and the need for fertilizers and pesticides.
A native plant demonstration garden has been created at the Centre to showcase native species and promote native landscaping. Within the garden, a variety of mini-gardens have been designed to highlight different landscaping styles and options. The demonstration garden features a native plant meadow, rock garden, butterfly garden, native hedge, hummingbird garden, silver sage garden and container garden.
For more information about native landscaping, download our Native Landscaping Booklet here.
Workshops and Lectures
Throughout the year, the Osoyoos Desert Centre offers a variety of educational programs, including lecture series and hands-on workshops. Through its programs the Centre strives to increase public awareness and knowledge about our beautiful natural spaces and provide opportunities for people to get involved and have a positive impact on their environment.

Don’t think your Coral Springs home is worth what the Broward County Tax Appraiser says its worth? Property owners who may want to appeal their property’s value, exemptions and classification can file for a petition with the County’s Value Adjustment Board (VAB) beginning Monday, August 5.
Property owners who disagree with the assessment on their property’s value or have been denied an exemption, classification or tax deferral can file electronically online using a credit card at bcvab.broward.org/axiaweb2013 or in person at the Broward County Governmental Center, 115 S. Andrews Ave., Second Floor, Room 200, Fort Lauderdale. Business hours are Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.; hours on the final day to file will be from 7:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
The VAB also reminds residents that the Florida Legislature passed a law, HB 281, in June 2011 regarding the payment of taxes. If you petition the VAB for anything other than a denial of tax deferral, you must pay all non-ad valorem assessments and a portion of your ad valorem taxes before they become delinquent, usually by April 1.

I am a retired teacher having worked in local schools until 2008 when I decided to combine work and travel, taking jobs in international schools in Russian Federation, France, Cyprus and Ukraine.
Like many people, I have always wanted to
try my hand at writing; especially having spent the best part of 40 years helping and encouraging children to write stories. What I needed was a push and deadlines, which the writing group offers. I am, essentially, writing for myself using my considerable
life experiences and have no thoughts of seeking publication. I like the challenge and enjoyment of writing.

My favorite song that they made was Solid. I never heard anything bad about Ashford and Simpson. I never heard the word divorce when it came to their name. They look like they had true love and their songs were real and straight from the heart.


Stamping — also called pressing — involves placing flat sheet metal, in either coil or blank form, into a stamping press. In the press of stamping components making, a tool and die surface form the metal into the desired shape. Punching, blanking, bending, coining, embossing, and flanging are all techniques of producing precision stamping parts used to shape the metal.
One of the most commonly used metals for metal stamping is steel. However, not all steel alloys are alike, and each type has its own unique qualities. Selecting a steel alloy for a metal stamping project depends on the application's specific requirements.

Finals Trap Men
GBR’s Heading wins Trap Men match defeating 7-time World Cup champ Pellielo
ISSF World Cup Shotgun · Al Ain, UAE
Great Britain’s Aaron Heading won the Trap Men event at the 2013 ISSF Shotgun World Cup held in Al Ain, United Arab Emirates, today.
It has been Aaron Heading’s day, today, at the ISSF Shotgun World Cup in Al Ain.
The 25-year old shooter from Lincolnshire, England, climbed atop of the podium after beating the seven-time World Cup champion Giovanni Pellielo of Italy by 13 to 11 hits in the Gold medal match.
“It feels great to win this medal. It has been tough. Pellielo one of the best shooters out there.” Heading said.
Heading won with the new ISSF Finals rules. After the qualifications, conducted over 125 targets, the best 6 shooters advance to the semi-final, and the qualification score is not carried forward. The 6 semi-finalists start from zero. The best 2 advance to the Gold medal match, the third and the fourth to the Bronze medal match, and the fifth and the sixth drop out of the competition.
Heading qualified for today’s match with 121 hits, and had to pass through a shoot-off against six other athletes to get into the semi-final.
Then, the young English shooter zeroed in, clearing all the 15 semi-final’s targets, advancing to the Gold medal match, where he met Italy’s three-time Olympic medallist Giovanni “Johnny” Pellielo.
Pellielo had just equalled the current World Record by hitting 125 out of 125 targets in the qualifications. But today’s it was Heading’s day, and Aaron beat the 43-year old Italian by two targets, securing his first ISSF World Cup Gold medal ever.
“Today had to be my day. I passed through hard times lately; this is why this medal has a special meaning. I would like to dedicate it to a friend who’s not with us anymore.” Heading said.
Today’s Bronze medal went to Austria’s 42-year old athlete Andreas Scherhaufer, who beat Slovakia’s Erik Varga 11 to 10 hits in the Bronze medal match, after hitting 13 targets in the semi-final.
Great Britain’s Michael Wixey and Turkey’s Oguzhan Tuzun placed fifth and sixth with 11 and 10 hits in the semi-final, respectively.
More than 350 shooters from 50 countries are competing in the second leg of this year’s ISSF Shotgun World Cup Series, held in Al Ain from the 17th through the 24th of April. The event will continue now with the Double Trap and the Skeet events. Check the schedule on www.issf-sports.org

Venezuelan pensioners facing losses in Conn. fraud
HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — Some of the Venezuelan pensioners affected by a $500 million Connecticut-based fraud scheme are saying they haven't been able to get back their money.
The biggest investment client of Venezuelan-American financier Francisco Illarramendi was a pension fund for state oil workers in the South American country.
Federal prosecutors in Connecticut say they received a statement in October from a number of people who say they have not been compensated for their losses by their former employer or the Venezuelan government.
Venezuela's government has said it was trying to recover what it can from the Petroleos de Venezuela retirement fund.
Illarramendi ran unregistered hedge funds out of Stamford, Conn. He is to be sentenced in January after pleading guilty last year to fraud in a scheme to conceal huge losses.

Some of our actors are not just artistes but artists too. We look at some Bollywood stars who secretly nurse a passion for painting. Sridevi is making a comeback in Hindi films with Gauri Shinde’s directorial debut, English Vinglish. Between shots, the actor would often be spotted with crayons, sketch pens and paper. “Sridevi loves to draw and paint. I’ve seen some really huge paintings made by her lining the walls of her home. They’re really good, but that’s not surprising because Sridevi is a perfectionist who excels in everything she takes up,” says Gauri. “The artworks range from abstracts to portraits. There’s a really huge one of Michael Jackson, who’s her idol since she’s a dancer too.”Salman Khan Salman inherited his artistic abilities from his mother Salma and paints abstracts, religious imagery, couples and his dogs. In 2008, he gifted Ranbir Kapoor a painting of his grandfather Raj Kapoor on his game show, Dus Ka Dum, and presented Aamir one of him in his Ghajini (2008) avatar. He got an approving nod from the late MF Husain, also inspired Dabangg (2010) co-star Sonakshi Sinha to move beyond sketches and paint a woman.
For Salman’s Maine Pyar Kiya (1989) co-star, painting was a fun pastime that let her imagination take flight. She says, “I began when I was 13, with sketches of my favourite stars, Amitabh Bachchan, Marilyn Monroe, Bridget Bardot and Michael Jackson.”
The actor-singer has been painting since he was a child and has a degree in fine arts. At 18, he sold 20-minute charcoal portraits in a hotel lobby for R500 each to fund his music albums.“Some women wanted a painting like the one Leonardo DiCaprio makes for Kate Winslet in Titanic, including my wife, whom I later painted,” he says. “Once I got busy with music, I stopped painting. I picked up the brush after seven years in 2010 when my father asked me to be a part of a national exhibition in Lahore,” says Zafar. The exhibition featuring over 100 Pakistani artistes was hosted by the alumni association of the College of Art and Design for the rehabilitation of craftsmen affected by the devastating floods. More recently, Zafar painted London, Paris, New York (2012) co-star Aditi Rao Hydari during the film’s promotions.
Perfectionist Aamir took art lessons before playing Arun, the painter, in wife Kiran Rao’s directorial debut Dhobi Ghat (2010). Salman was his inspiration“Salman’s a fantastic painter and has presented me with four beautiful paintings that are up on our walls. I tried to copy one of them.. a face… and realised I’d a really bad artist but a good imitator,” he laughs. “I gifted the canvas to Salman and it has pride of place in his living room. I guess, he didn’t want to break my heart.” Interestingly, Salman’s paintings lined the walls of Prateik’s shack in the film.
He was a prolific painter who dabbled in charcoal, water-colour and oil. “I like to paint nudes, in the nude, in the privacy of my bathroom,” the veteran actor once admitted. He’s made 300-odd paintings, many of which he gifted away but on his birth centenary last year the Ashok Kumar Foundation organised an exhibition of his art that had a self-potrait of him playing the violin.
Deepika Padukone always got an
A grade in art when in school.
And during Love Aaj Kal (2009), in which she played a fresco
restoration artist, when she suddenly spotted canvasses and paint on the set, she made a couple of paintings.


Adedayo Akinwale in Abuja
The Forum of Former Deputy Governors of Nigeria has called for the amendment of the constitution of political parties in order to create room for former deputy governors to be admitted as members of the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the parties.
The National Chairman of the Forum and former Deputy Governor of Abia State, Chris Akomas, stated this on Monday when members of the forum paid a courtesy visit to the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdulahi Ganduje.
He wondered why Senate Presidents, Deputy Senate Presidents, Speakers, Deputy Speakers of the National Assembly are members of NEC but the deputy governors are not with all the experiences and the followership they have.
Akomas said: “That is something that bothers us. We hope that situation will be reversed.
“The other thing has to do with protocol. Sometimes we take it as an omission, we don’t see it as a commission, deputy governors are skipped in the affairs at the state, except it is ok at our personal and interpersonal level. That is another thing that needs attention.”
Responding, the National Chairman of the party, Ganduje, said there was no doubt the position of the deputy governor is the most controversial position in governance, not only in Nigeria but all over the world.
He said: “Except in some nations where some of the governors contest in his own party. The deputy governor can contest in another party. And win the election and they work together.
“In Nigeria, it has to be the same ticket. The position of the deputy governor as I always say is the most controversial position. That is God has no deputy. Everybody is a servant. It is a no go area. But we as humans, the constitution has to provide for it as a spare tire. And we all know the importance of a spare tire. If you don’t need it when you are normal then you will need it when you are in trouble.
“Deputy governors will have to contend with one issue. The issue of sycophancy. What I was trying to say was that our position was faced with difficulties. When you are walking with a governor side by side, so that if he talks to you so that you can hear him, and you talk to him he can hear you, sycophants will say you are rubbing shoulder with him. If you are in the front and there is any accident, or dangerous elements, even snakes, and you say let it bite you first before biting your principal, sycophants will say you have overtaken him.
“If you respect your principal and you stay behind, let him go ahead, sycophants will say you are developing a lukewarm attitude, therefore you are retreating. Now, tell me which position will you take? It is difficult. That is why I decided to write a book. Even up till now that problem is still on. In fact, if it persists, we are trying to organise a national conference on the relationship between governors and their deputies.”

The ‘case of patriots’ might have been closed, but the persecution of the former defendants is still in progress.
In addition to the criminal case initiated against Andrey Byalyauski, law enforcement officers opened two more case over illegal possesstion and trafficking of ammunition have been opened against the former suspects in the White Legion case, the human rights center Viasna reports.
According to human rights activists, on the former suspects in the case of the “White Legion”,
“The names of other defendants are not yet known, that is why human rights defenders lack information on these new cases,” said Valyantsin Stefanovich, a representative of the HRC Viasna, said.
If Byalyauski or other defendants get prison terms, human rights activists will consider their sentences as politically motivated, which will raise the question of their recognition as political prisoners, he stressed.
On March 21, president Alyaksandr Lukashenka stated that several dozen persons ‘trained how to deal with weapons in [special] camps’ had been arrested in Belarus. According to him, such camps were located not far from the Belarusian towns of Babruysk and Asipovichy.
About 30 persons – former members of the White Legion, state-authorized sports and military club Patriot, Young Front activists as well as people who are not associated with any organizations, landed up in jail after Lukashenka’s words about ‘armed militants’ posing a threat to Belarus.
However, the first-ever case that had been opened under Article 287 of the Belarusian Criminal Code was closed on November 27.

Governor Tony Evers reveals what he’ll propose to help local governments with their budget challenges. Evers’ budget will call for dedicating 20 percent of future state tax collections to increase shared revenue by more than $576 million, and allow local governments to levy higher sales taxes.
Milwaukee County would be allowed to add an additional 1 percent sales tax to its current 0.5 percent tax with the new revenue split between the county and the city. If local voters approve, other counties would be allowed to double local sales taxes to 1 percent, and 25 cities with populations of more than 30,000 would be able to impose a new 0.5 percent sales tax.
Evers will deliver his budget address next Wednesday (February 15) at the Capitol.

BEVERLY HILLS (CBSLA) -- Hundreds of supporters of President Donald Trump marched from West Hollywood to Beverly Hills on Saturday afternoon for a planned rally.
The group began gathering around 1 p.m. and grew from around 200 to approximately 400 protesters as of 2 p.m. Police shared that the group began to disperse around 5:30 p.m.
Demonstrators carried "Trump 2020'' banners, American flags and signs saying "United We Stand.''
The event was organized by the Walk Away Foundation, which said the rally was planned to "speak out against the destruction of property and lives, the villainization of law enforcement and weaponization of tragedies.''
Police described the attendees as peaceful and said they were mostly staying on sidewalks in the area of Beverly Gardens Park at the Beverly Hills sign.
Law enforcement also warned of potential traffic delays due to the gathering but said authorities would continue monitoring crowds.
Actors Lorenzo Lamas, Scott Baio, singer Joy Villa and others spoke at the event in support of President Trump's policies.

For the research of insulating materials for HVDC components.
The pulsed electro-acoustic (PEA) method is a non-destructive space charge measurement technique. It is used to profile the space charge distribution, accumulation and its overall behavior inside polymeric insulating materials.
Used by many research labs of cable manufacturers, research institutes and universities around the world.
Space charge observation is becoming the most widely used technique to evaluate polymeric materials for DC-insulation applications, particularly high-voltage cables.
It is already well assessed in fact, that the presence of space charges is the main problem causing premature failure of high-voltage dc polymeric cables and, indeed, the main reason preventing from a rapid diffusion of such kind of cables.
Moreover, it has been shown that insulation degradation under service stresses can be diagnosed by space charge measurements. However, quantities are still lacking that can help to summarize and interpret the huge amount of data resulting from space charge measurements, and that are also associated with the electrical performance of the insulation.
The pulsed electroacoustic analysis (PEA) can be used for space charge measurements under dc or ac fields.
The PEA method is a non-destructive technique for profiling space charge accumulation in polymeric materials.
A series of high-voltage pulses of very short time length is applied to an insulation specimen interposed between two electrodes. Each pulse produces an electric force displacing internal charges and generating pulsed acoustic pressure waves in correspondence of each charge layer in excess with respect to neutrality. The resultant pressure pulse is detected by a piezoelectric transducer, so that the charge distribution in the specimen under test can be obtained from the output voltage of the transducer. The analysis of space-charge profiles is restricted to one dimension.

What’s So Interesting About Houston Texans?
Houston is coming off its worst rushing efficiency, totaling only 36 yards rushing in Week 12. “Speed, athleticism, physicality. All the things you want in a safety, he possesses that. Good football player.” “We had a comparable scenario arise a handful of weeks back. We had to adapt and improvise. Without the need of a doubt, it will be a tremendous challenge if we were in a situation exactly where we did not play with each of those guys. I never foresee that getting an issue.” We break down the fantasy football outlook of Royce Freeman ahead of the Texans’ Week 17 matchup against the Jaguars.
“I’d say there’s a fairly good shot Chris is going to be back on the group,” Caserio said. “I think Chris has been a expert since the day that he got here. He’s got a superior attitude. He’s got a very good approach. He’s effectively-respected by his teammates, effectively-respected by the coaching staff. I would count on Chris to almost certainly be back around here likely sooner rather than later.” Hairston, a former Central Michigan DL/LB, was asked to change positions to fullback this offseason. Caserio gave examples of other thriving fullbacks, such as New England Patriots All-Pro James Develin, who switched from defensive finish, stating that “extremely couple of fullbacks were fullbacks.” Hairston made the most of his chance to remain on the field by switching positions. “Yeah, I feel the players that are on the team, we’re comfy with them, otherwise they would not be right here,” Caserio mentioned.
Right after placing up two of their lowest rushing net totals of the season against Washington and Miami , the Texans located good results final week against the Browns with Dameon Pierce rushing for 73 yards and averaging 4.1 yards per carry. Even so, the Texans will discover that balance among official website the passing and the ground game for Mills and the offense to bounce back Sunday against the Cowboys. “I felt like last year when I came back for the second time and played seriously nicely at the finish of the season, so these previous two weeks truly just allowed me to sit back and continue to study,” Mills said.
“It really is an significant game. It is a game that’s becoming played. Those guys put in a fantastic amount of function. We place in a fantastic quantity of work official website and we all come on Sunday to compete for the ultimate stat, which is a win,” Fatukasi mentioned. The game wasn’t fantastic for the Jaguars’ offense, either. The group mustered just 181 total passing yards and 169 rushing yards, including 108 rushing yards for Etienne.
Use Houston Texans such as a ‘career’
News Win in Tennessee
Texans vs. Chiefs Here are 5 factors to watch when the Texans host Kansas City on Sunday inside NRG Stadium. The Eagles are scoring 28 points per game this season. “It’s a lot of threats,” Defensive back Steven Nelson said.
On the final two drives, that violence and block destruction was ultimately evident, but by that point, it was a bit as well late. If the Texans want to challenge this Eagles defense, it will have to physically answer the Eagles’ physicality for a complete 60 minutes…or else. QB Jalen Hurts, formerly of Channelview HS, may well be the league’s most worthwhile player and its most improved player. He is the consummate leader that the Eagles are following each and each and every day.
New Orleans closes out the preseason, hosting the Los Angeles Chargers on Fri. Metchie had 96 catches for 1,142 yards and eight touchdowns last season at Alabama before tearing his ACL in the SEC championship game in December. Before this diagnosis, he had said he expected to be ready for coaching camp. Houston is scheduled to commence their training camp on Friday, July 29. Rookies and quarterback reported on Sunday, July 24 as quarterback Davis Mills and company returned to camp to support get the 2022 season started. I never truly have high expectations for wins from this group.
The Houston Texans Trap
Every day Brew The Houston Texans offensive line has not given up a sack in three consecutive weeks, despite facing some of the NFL’s top rated defensive players. McNair demonstrated the capability to get the city to back the football proposal because he worked out a stadium deal along with the franchise.
New Orleans Saints safety Tyrann Mathieu runs a drill at the team’s 2022 OTA practices on May possibly 25, 2022 at the Ochsner Sports Efficiency Center. New Orleans Saints safety Tyrann Mathieu runs a drill during the team’s 2022 OTA practices on May possibly 25, 2022 at the Ochsner Sports Overall performance Center. New Orleans Saints receiver Chris Olave warms up through the team’s 2022 OTA practices on May 25, 2022 at the Ochsner Sports Overall performance Center.
- Though items ended badly for Frank Reich with the Indianapolis Colts, there are handful of about the league who think he was the challenge.
- When the smoke cleared, the Texans finished dead final in the league in total offense and rushing yards even though only two teams scored fewer points.
- Houston will not present Wilson and Co. with the very same sort of emotional test as the Seahawks did in Week 1.
- Texans players chose to award $10,000 to CoolxDad, which works to help and uplift all fathers of colour striving to construct a far better word for their youngsters and serve their communities.
- He has 4 receptions for 30 yards on nine targets.
Okay, I tricked ya simply because it was basically Steelers star T.J. Watt with 22.5, but, BUT Quinn was second in the league with 18.five and is arguably the best pass rusher in the NFC at the ripe old age of 32. He can take more than a game from the edge with a cadre of moves and a blazing rapid initial step. The Texans tackles did a solid job for the most part against the Broncos rushers, but the speed of Randy Gregory became an issue in the fourth quarter.
How Can Houston Texans Work?
Then a Travis Etienne rush and a pass to Marvin Jones sophisticated the Jags inside the ten. The Jaguars didn’t make it too far soon after the lengthy punt return, but it did not matter. Riley Patterson arrived to boot a 53-yard field target through the uprights. That’s his longest kick in an NFL frequent season game to date. The Texans started the possession with quarterback Davis Mills discovering wide receiver Phillip Dorsett for seven yards.


AG Schuette to doctors: Treat pain with Physical Therapy- not opiods
LANSING, Mich (WLNS) – In an effort to discourage the use of opioids state attorney general Bill Schuette has teamed up with 34 other attorneys general from around the country.
They sent a joint letter Monday asking the insurance industry to push doctors to treat pain with something other than opioid painkillers like physical therapy and massage.
The letter says right now doctors are encouraged to prescribe opioids and that it’s unacceptable.
So far, the insurance group has not responded.

Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust welcomed the local media and VIP guests to preview its new £20 million mental health hospital in Southport to coincide with World Mental Health Day on 10 October.
"It’s ‘our’ hospital" says service user design champion, Don Bryant
View a short film of the day here on Twitter: https://twitter.com/i/status/1182318616731115522
Invited guests including the Mayor of Sefton Cllr June Burns today got a chance to tour the state of the art Hartley Hospital, being built off Scarisbrick New Road. It will provide the town’s inpatient and community mental health services co-located for the first time in a modern therapeutic environment.
During the preview day guests were able to see some of the 40 single en suite bedrooms, day areas and garden courtyards, ahead of the first phase of completion. The first ward will move in mid-November to provide care for older adults and the whole hospital will be fully operational in March 2020.
During the preview Executive Director of Estates at Mersey Care, Elaine Darbyshire, outlined Mersey Care’s vision for improving its NHS estate and how that fits in with the trust’s ambition of Perfect Care. World Mental Health Day’s theme is suicide prevention and Mersey Care is working hard to raise awareness through its association with the Zero Suicide Alliance.
Chief Operating Officer for Mersey Care’s Local Services, Donna Robinson said she was delighted to see Hartley Hospital approaching phase one completion and this is the latest and second major mental health hospital development to take place in Merseyside in the past 4 years.
Service User and Carer representative Don Bryant explained how patients and their families have been involved in every step of the development of Hartley Hospital. Service users are also Design Champions helping contribute ideas and feedback to Mersey Care and its architects and builders to produce the best possible environments for a new generation of mental health hospitals.
Representing construction partner Farran Heron Joint Venture, Regional Director Cathal Heron summarised the Hartley Hospital build and gave a project update. This is their second major new build with Mersey Care following the opening of Clock View Hospital in 2015.
Executive Director of Estates at Mersey Care, Elaine Darbyshire, said: “We are nearing the end of a long journey which has involved service users, carers, staff and partner organisations in designing a world class health facility fit for the 21st century.
“Thanks to support from our local commissioners and health partners we will soon see this first major phase of construction coming to an end. We can press on with the final fit out before moving in the first patients in November and ensuring the hospital is fully operational by March 2020.”
The new build will give a fresh lease of life to the historic hospital site on the corner of Curzon Road and Southport’s main A570 road into the town centre. Hartley Hospital will replace Mersey Care’s existing Boothroyd Unit located there and due for demolition under phase two, as well as nearby Hesketh Centre, which will close once the new facility is complete.
The hospital will combine local mental health inpatient care and related community services. All 40 bedrooms will all be single with en suite bathrooms and patients will have access to inner garden courtyards, therapy and activity areas. There will be a short-term assessment suite, on-site café for patients, visitors and staff, a family visiting room, sacred space, gym, suite of offices and outpatient services.
The name for Hartley Hospital pays tribute to the heritage of the previous Southport General Infirmary site and nearby former Christiana Hartley Maternity Unit. Christiana Hartley, the daughter of famous jam-making magnate Sir William Pickles Hartley who set up his factory in Liverpool, was also Southport’s first woman Mayor and a health and social reformer a century ago. The name was chosen after public consultation.

A young girl who was in a critical condition in hospital on Tuesday night after an incident in Co Clare was wounded in the same property where her mother was found unconscious. The property was being used as accommodation for refugees, including those recently arrived from Ukraine.
The mother and girl, both believed to be from Ukraine, were in critical condition in University Hospital Limerick on Tuesday night and there were concerns for the survival prospects of both. The girl, who gardaí suspect suffered stab wounds, is eight while her mother is in her 40s.
Both were discovered on Tuesday morning at a property in Clarecastle just outside Ennis where Clare Civil Defence has been providing emergency accommodation for people displaced by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Clare Civil Defence personnel and an interpreter were also called to assist gardaí at the scene on Tuesday morning.
When gardaí and paramedics arrived at the property, the wounded girl was treated at the scene before being taken by ambulance to University Hospital Limerick, though she may be transferred to a hospital in Dublin. The woman was found unconscious in the same property and was also taken from the scene to the same hospital.
The house, which the mother and child had only recently moved into, has been sealed off and other people staying there have been brought to other accommodation. The property underwent an examination by members of the Divisional Scenes of Crime Unit on Tuesday and it is expected to remain sealed-off on Wednesday as the evidence-gathering phase of the inquiry continues.
Gardaí were also expected to speak to other people who were staying in the property as part of the efforts to piece together the events of Tuesday morning. They are also trying to establish when the mother and daughter were last seen and who they last spoke to.
In a statement, gardaí said that shortly before 8am, gardaí and emergency service attended a scene at a domestic residence in Clarecastle, Co Clare.
“A female child was discovered with serious injuries and was removed to University Hospital Limerick where she remains in a critical condition,” the statement said. “A female adult was also found unconscious at the scene, and was removed to University Hospital Limerick where she is also in a critical condition.
“An incident room has been established at Ennis Garda station and a senior investigating officer has been appointed to oversee the investigation.”
