Lately, there are more clothes and other products made out of plastic marine pollution – but is it really healthy? It is good to be creative and find a way to keep things out of the landfill but let’s not risk poisoning ourselves in the process. Studies show plastics in the ocean absorb toxic chemicals and can be more contaminated than “land” plastic.
Many of us are already removing plastic from our daily lives, so why would we choose to put it on our bodies in the form of clothes? When we sweat our pores open and we become even more susceptible to toxins. Do we want those toxic ocean plastics leaching into our pores?

"I think what's funny is that we've stopped experiencing life for the experience.
To answer that: I’m extremely open with my sexuality.The wake-up call was getting caught."I had a very sort of flirtatious, maybe not such a loyal conversation with an ex, and it quickly turned from facebook chat to g-chat and then we were texting," Stolz told CBS News.The person Stolz was dating at the time saw those texts and immediately broke up with Kim."I've always been someone that my friends would comment over and over again like, 'oh there's Kim with her phone again,' 'oh you're the most socially social media addicted person we've ever met,'" Stolz said.Kim's parents also noticed she was always attached to her phone."I remember seeing her in the pool with her phone, I thought, she's in the pool with her phone?

Human Lives Human Rights: Tafadzwa Shamba and Tapiwa Makore Senior were given the death penalty on 12 July 2023 after being tried at the Harare High Court for the murder of Tapiwa Makore.
Tapiwa, who was killed on 17 September 2020, was discovered in a disfigured and dismembered state, which caused a great deal of public anger and shock.
Human rights organizations universally condemn the death penalty, advocating for its abolition in all circumstances.
They argue that regardless of the crime committed, the characteristics of the offender, or the method of execution employed by the state, the death penalty constitutes a deliberate and calculated act of killing by the government in the name of justice.
This practice is seen as a violation of the fundamental right to life, as enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Furthermore, it is considered the most extreme form of cruel, inhuman, and degrading punishment.
The use of the death penalty is deemed inappropriate and should never be employed under any circumstances, regardless of the location or situation.
However, it is important to note that human rights organizations do not seek to downplay or excuse the crimes for which individuals have been sentenced to death.
Instead, they advocate for holding individuals accountable for their actions through fair trials that adhere to international standards, without resorting to the death penalty.

Image recognition | The construction of the water level identification site in the lower reaches of the Minjiang River was successfully constructed
Image water level recognition system
Image recognition water level monitoring system uses Internet + as the core concept and artificial intelligence as the core technology to mine and optimize the resources of existing video image monitoring stations, and expand the function of video image stations without affecting the operation of the original video surveillance system. Using video surveillance system resources to re-excavate, construct image recognition water level monitoring system, increase water level monitoring coverage and density, enrich water level monitoring information; image + data mutual information verification, guarantee the accuracy of traditional monitoring method data; deep mining existing video Image station resources to avoid duplication of construction
Image water level identification monitoring and early warning system is mainly composed of video monitoring station, simple water gauge and image processing software. Among them, the video monitoring station uses the established results, the simple water gauge needs to be newly installed, and the image processing software of each site is based on the installation conditions of the water gauges at each site (inclination, light, water turbidity, night vision conditions, etc.) and image shooting. Configure the algorithm.
The Lancang River is the largest river in Fujian Province, and its downstream section traverses Fuzhou City. The safety of the dikes along the banks of the lower reaches of the Lancang River is directly related to the safety of people's lives and property on both sides of the Lancang River. The Minjiang River Downstream Management Office, as the functional department of the shoreline, river course, beach land, flood control and drainage project management of the Fuzhou section of the lower reaches of the Minjiang River, has made great contributions to the downstream river management and flood control and flood control work for more than half a century. The experience has obtained a large number of scientific and technological achievements and related information. The management of the lower reaches of the Minjiang River is directly related to the safety and economic construction of Fuzhou City.
The number and layout of automated monitoring stations, operation management methods, technical means, equipment and measures of the downstream management office of the Minjiang River are difficult to meet the needs of current and future flood control. The introduction of image water level identification technology will further enhance the Lijiang River.

Mourinho furious at Frank half-time chat
Last updated at 12:14 24 February 2005
The Blues will complain to the governing body over Barca coach Frank Rijkaard's discussion with Swedish referee Anders Frisk.
Rijkaard could face a reprimand for talking to referee Frisk inside the official's own dressing room during the half-time interval of their match with Chelsea last night.
The Barcelona coach was witnessed leaving the room used by the Swedish official and that is almost certain to be the main thrust of Chelsea's imminent complaint to UEFA.
UEFA are likely to take a dim view of Rijkaard's actions which would appear to be highly inappropriate irrespective of the topic they discussed.
Chelsea confirmed that they were in the process of making a strong protest to UEFA about Rijkaard's conversation with Frisk, although they have yet to accuse the Barca coach of entering official's dressing room.
The Barclays Premiership leaders also moved quickly to scotch stories of an alleged tunnel bust-up in which Mourinho was understood to have been kicked up the backside by Barcelona's assistant coach Henk Ten Cate.
Chelsea today issued a further comment denying such an incident took place.
The statement read: "Following Chelsea's statement after the Barcelona match last night, it is being reported through various media outlets that an incident occurred between Jose Mourinho and a member of the Barcelona coaching staff. This incident did not happen and Chelsea can therefore confirm that this will not form part of our report to UEFA which is currently being prepared."
However, the Londoners will be pressing UEFA to deal with Rijkaard's actions at half-time. It is understood that Rijkaard was seen leaving Frisk's dressing room during the interval.
Match overshadowed by off-field incidents
The game was overshadowed by numerous allegations of scuffles between opposing coaches and even a kick up the backside for Mourinho during a heated discussion in the bowels of the Nou Camp.
Mourinho refused to expand on his experiences but the club did confirm that they were to protest in the strongest possible terms to UEFA.
The spark for Mourinho's latest bout of indignation is once again the Chelsea manager's abject dislike of cosy chats between match officials and opposing managers.
Last month Mourinho escaped action from the Football Association for his criticism of Neale Barry's discussion with Sir Alex Ferguson as they walked down the tunnel together at Stamford Bridge during their Carling Cup semi-final first leg.
Rijkaard, basking in the comfortable glow of a man whose team had beaten one of the best in Europe, denied anyone from Barcelona was responsible for the trouble and insisted that the Londoners were behaving badly.
Rijkaard said: "I was there and nothing happened. I was not the cause of the incident. I said something about the game in a very polite and informal way to the referee, so the reaction of some of the Chelsea side was a little bit exaggerated.
"It is not true that the referee went into our dressing room and I am glad this rumour has come out because now it seems even more ridiculous to me. Maybe they want to start something and make it worse than than it is. I really don't understand it. I am very calm about it.
Rijkaard: It's all being exaggerated
"We didn't start anything and I didn't talk to the referee in an aggressive way. I was very polite. I think what they are talking about is very exaggerated.
"I am also curious about what the Chelsea declaration will be. There was a lot of talking before the game and now surprisingly there is a lot of talking after the game. It is not good behaviour after a match. I was present and I have seen no incident. This is not the correct way to behave."
Mourinho could now face UEFA sanctions for refusing to attend the post-match press conference while Rijkaard was just happy his side overcame a first-half own goal by Juliano Belletti to win 2-1 with second half goals from Maxi Lopez and Samuel Eto'o.
The Dutchman added: "My team deserved victory. That's all I am thinking now. I am feeling joy at having won this match."
Chelsea are facing a possible UEFA fine after Jose Mourinho refused to attend the mandatory press conference following his team's defeat in Barcelona.
Their decision was thought to be founded on Mourinho's unease at a tunnel incident at half-time which Chelsea have pledged to report to European football's governing body.
Neither Mourinho, his players, or any members of the Chelsea coaching staff spoke after the match, however the manager had been obliged to address the press.
UEFA spokesman William Gaillard admitted he was surprised by Mourinho's decision, after Chelsea's 2-1 loss in the Nou Camp.
Recognising that Mourinho may have been allowed to excuse himself under certain circumstances, Gaillard nevertheless added: "But it was a perfectly calm game with excellent crowd behaviour and we do not understand the Chelsea decision.
"We will certainly ask them. It is a a violation of the rules."
UEFA could assess Chelsea's report on the half-time incident which apparently infuriated Mourinho before deciding whether to penalise the London club.
As for possible punishment, Gaillard told Sky Sports News: "I wouldn't want to speculate on that but it is obvious the kind of sanctions team can incur are in terms of fines."

The very same best CBD gummies opts for those who have to deal with nerve disorders. The newer medicines could be harmful for patients who have on-going nerve conditions.
Yet another cause that cannabidiol is essential is actually considering that it is actually known to assist reduced high blood pressure. As mentioned above, confiscations are actually managed through decreasing the task of the nerves in the mind. Through taking cannabidiol, you can easily aid to rest the muscles in the mind which induces the condition to end up being more manageable.
In add-on, there are actually other usages for cannabidiol. It has been confirmed to help reduce some health problems, such as HIV and those who have lung cancer as well as HIV, as well as those who have Crohn’s condition and ulcerative colitis.
Individuals in these conditions generally require specific anti-inflammatory medications. Some individuals can easily not take these as a result of allergies. Various other a lot more frequently prescribed drugs, like Cannabidiol can easily help the individuals receive the drugs they need.
There have been actually some recent researches that recommend that cannabidiol might assist females that are actually pregnant. Girls that were actually expecting a child experienced nausea, vomiting, high temperature, and also cramping during their maternity. Along with cannabidiol, the queasiness was actually lessened, and many females have stated possessing bit to no soreness with the maternity.
The advantage is actually certainly not just confined to health care health conditions. The perks to CBD are actually numerous as well as much more could be found out as scientists remain to study the advantages.
When Cannabidiol is made use of as a cure for cancer, it can typically do the trick, however it is actually no miracle drug. The very best aspect of Cannabidiol is that it does not work for everyone, thus you should not anticipate instant outcomes. In this particular post, I’ll go over why folks are actually possessing excellence using it.
A research administered by the American Medical Diary analyzed the efficiency of Cannabidiol in dealing with patients that have established neuropathic pain from nerve personal injuries or burns. If an individual received Cannabidiol as well as pain was really felt in the feet after a surgical operation, the individual would certainly be actually given a CBD pill.
The research found that clients given this supplement experienced a considerable reduction in their neuropathic discomfort reviewed to those that didn’t receive any type of therapy. This shows that Cannabidiol performs work, however the research additionally discovered that individuals that had gotten on various other therapies had a lot even worse pain.
The best highly effective anti-inflammatory residential or commercial properties of CBD stems from its own capability to minimize swelling. This reduce in inflammation is actually a significant reason numerous individuals are actually being successful with Cannabidiol.
Numerous clinical tests have actually been completed as well as several cancer individuals were revealed to be treated utilizing this supplement. It seems to be that Cannabidiol has an anti-inflammatory result, and also because it possesses a comparable action to anesthetics like Vicodin, a patient simply needs to take one therapy a day.
Neuropathic ache associated with arthritis is actually a common grievance for many arthritis patients. Research studies carried out on Cannabidiol have actually presented that when provided to people along with the ailment, it significantly lessened the amount of ache they really felt.
There are some adverse effects related to using Cannabidiol, yet they are actually moderate as well as hardly result in severe concerns. The side effects consist of nausea or vomiting, muscle twitching, lightheadedness, as well as also frustration.
Many pills contain two CBD capsules. Some study suggests that this supplement might boost cravings, but it does not appear to have any kind of effect on appetite for most people.
When taking Cannabidiol, regularly make certain to ask your physician or even pharmacist concerning feasible side effects. If you take any sort of kind of prescription medication, make sure to know your physician concerning any type of therapy that you are looking at, given that some might engage negatively with Cannabidiol.
Due to the fact that there are actually still odds of productive treatment along with this strategy, there is no requirement to worry if you are actually already acquiring clinical treatment. Attempt to steer clear of circumstances where your physical body is actually under stress, considering that it may produce you even more at risk to possessing an allergic reaction.
Discussion to your doctor concerning utilizing it in conjunction with various other treatments if you wish to make an effort Cannabidiol. You might be shocked at the end results you receive with the supplement, specifically if you are actually actually making use of prescribed drugs.
Prior to you try this technique, you must recognize that it has a higher excellence price with people who possess terminal illness and also that don’t respond to traditional treatments. If you are actually already making use of various other methods to alleviate your ache, it’s worth a try to attempt it.
One more factor that cannabidiol is crucial is actually given that it is actually known to assist lower blood stress. Through taking cannabidiol, you can easily aid to rest the muscles in the mind which results in the problem to end up being extra workable.
Various other more frequently suggested medications, like Cannabidiol can easily aid the individuals obtain the medications they need.
There have actually been some current studies that advise that cannabidiol can assist females who are actually expectant. When Cannabidiol is made use of as a treatment for cancer cells, it can easily often perform the trick, but it is actually no magic bullet.

Guided Exploration of Value Added Enterprises Project
The project is designed to guide interested farmers/farmer groups, recruited at farmers markets and elsewhere, through product development, testing, equipment and supplies training, production, business formation, marketing and other issues ancillary to running a small value-added business.
1) 10 farmers/groups of farmers will understand all aspects of developing a value-added enterprise.
2) 30 farmers/groups of farmers will participate in portions of trainings and business classes offered.
3) All vendors in at least five farmer's markets will have an understanding of value-added enterprise development and regulations governing sales at farmers markets.
4) A core group of professionals will have "practiced" a holistic approach to assisting farmers in developing a successful value-added enterprise based on sustainable, local food production.
Nine farms attended a two evening Business Planning workshops.
Forty-eight farms attended a Step by Step Marketing Workshop. This workshop was presented twice this past year. Farmers were able go home with a written Marketing Plan after a full day of learning and brainstorming.
Forty-five farms participated in a program that gave An Overview of Value-Added Resources in Kansas. Participants were able to visit with directors of all the labs on the Kansas State University campus that work with value-added products. Labs visited were: the Value-Added Foods Lab, Meat Science Lab, Extrusion Lab, Thermal Processing Lab, and the Dairy Processing Lab.
Twenty-two farms attended a third Growers School on setting up a Processing Kitchen in Kansas City.
Nine farms participated in a holiday open house that sold value-added products from farms that have attended Guided Explorations workshops.
Twenty-one farms participated in a Fall Festival event highlighted and sold, value-added products from farms that have attended value-added workshops.
Sixteen farms and the Lawrence Ag Network, co-sponsored a Lawrence Chamber of Commerce after-hours mixer. Over 125 people attended and learned about local value-added products.
Thirty new farms have contacted us for information.
Two farmer's markets were given presentations about the project.
Twenty agencies have cooperated in project activities.
Sixty-five farmers attended a Communicating with your customers seminar at the Great Plains Vegetable Growers Conference. This same program, about marketing at farmer's markets was given to three other groups.
Eight hundred fifty children attended "The Slice of Ag," a program for 4th grade school children. "The Slice of Ag" educates young people about where their food comes from and teaches them safe food handling practices. Children learned many ways that fruits and vegetables can be given added value through processing.
Sixty-five farmers and agri-business people attended the Lawrence Ag Networks Vision Conference, where they discussed the future of Douglas County Agriculture. A Value-Added Ag committee and an Agri-Tourism committee were formed from this group and have met throughout the year to promote agriculture. The Guided Explorations project has had an active presence in both of these committees.
Eighteen vocational ag teachers learned about value-added products on a tour featuring local farms and their products.
Twenty-eight farmers attended a small farm equipment field day sponsored by "Growing Growers." Many of these farmers were also interested in adding value to the crops they raise.
Thirty-two master gardeners attended a workshop on adding value to flowers. They learned preservation and drying techniques that they can pass along to growers.
Presentations that promoted local value added products were given to 12 non-farm groups. These are the end consumers of the value-added products and they appreciated the education.
Many farmers who have attended the Guided Explorations workshops, and are now nearing or are in production of goods, have also requested information about agri-tourism and direct marketing. Two state-wide meetings have been very helpful in getting this information out. Guided Explorations has also helped to establish the Kaw Valley Agri-Tourism Council to better promote and market local value-added products.
Impacts and Contributions/Outcomes

Fifty to sixty other farms are in more beginning stages of production. Activities this year changed from the mere accumulation of information and knowledge of how to add value, to marketing these value added products. It is very hard to estimate sales as the types of products and farms are so diverse. Projects include pastured poultry and eggs, on-farm day care, vegetable processing, sheep and sheep cheese, salad dressing, salsa, processed herbs, emus, chestnuts, Christmas trees, organic grain for restaurants, corn mazes, sweet corn, hydroponic tomatoes and greenhouse crops, cut/dried flowers, etc.

I wonder if this isn't just an aspect of the culture wars.... violence is good, sex is bad - an actual need to control women's sexuality and give that power to their husband/owners. Paypal's not out after war stories or murder mysteries, no they're after erotica.
Erotica provides pleasure to many women, giving them more independence, confidence, and satisfaction. Sexual gratification is an important factor in human health. Individuals should chose what they wish to consume, not moralists at a bank.
And for those who think that reading about rape or fucking a dog, snogging your step parent might make you want to actually go do it? Or that you reading it makes someone else thing you want to be raped?
Well the second of those concerns is way more important. That's another argument that blames the victim. "OH you got raped because of the way you dressed, where you went, what you read." NO. Actual rape in the world is a violence crime. People need to be educated that it's not okay, under any realistically conceivable circumstances to rape another person. Just because two people (or more) might be willing to role play a rape with a safe word, does not mean it's okay to rape them without a safe word.
To try to control what women wear, read, or where they go... to protect them.... is just a way to say that if they do get raped, it's really their fault, not the fault of their attacker.
Paypal needs to stop confusing fiction with reality.

This new system incorporates brighter LED illumination and a broad offering of visual and sound technologies all in a 70mm diameter housing. The ControlTower 856T is capable of accommodating up to seven modules in the same stack, offering users the ability to monitor more machine and process conditions in a single device.
This new modular design allows the ControlTower 856T system to meet the widest range of signalling applications with a reduced number of components.
Alvaro Sanchez, product manager, Rockwell Automation says: “Our new tower light helps engineers achieve faster time to market due to the reduced number of components they need to select. Users may also see a lower total cost of ownership due to the scalable visual and audible options and the ability to monitor more machine conditions with a single tower light.”
The tower light features push-in terminal blocks in the base and internal DIP switches inside the light and sound modules that enable engineers to easily configure operation modes. Engineers can choose from a range of sounds that help alert operators on a machine’s status or condition. These sound options include multi-tone piezoelectric, multi-tone transducer technologies.
Rockwell’s ControlTower 856T system also includes non-stackable, beacon-shaped light modules for those applications that require a low-profile signalling device but want to use the same mounting infrastructure of the tower light.
The IP66/67-rated system can be used in tough environmental conditions and in an extended operating temperature (up to 70degC). To meet global requirements, the system is available in 24V AC/DC and 120/240V AC.

Danny Seaward scored a hat-trick as Whitley Tavern got their title push off to a winning start with an impressive 6-0 victory over Richfield Rovers.
Tavern have strengthened during the summer after finishing last season tropheyless and one of their new signings, keeper Daniel Springer, had an impressive debut.
Ray Spence was also in fine form and he helped himself to a brace including a fine strike into the top left corner after a neat interchange with Seaward.
Justin Somerville was also on target for Tavern who saved their best goal until last as Seaward completed his hat-trick after a flowing team move.
The striker linked up well with Barry Elmore and Austin Best before cutting in past a Richfield defender and toe poking the ball over the keeper.
Tavern’s Barry Howes said: “It was a great performance and everything we did came off.”
Southbank began life without former boss Simon Price with a 4-1 defeat to Southside.
Price stepped down in August after leading the club to their highest ever league position and to their first cup final.


Bartram Trail's track program had a banner day at the Class 3A state meet in Gainesville on Friday.
Justin Treece finished second in the discus with a throw of 155 feet, making him the school's first state runner-up.
"Justin had a great day," Bartram boys track coach Keith Cromwell said. "What a way to go out as a senior."
The Bears also got a glimpse of their future in sophomore David Barnhill.
Barnhill finished fourth in the 300 hurdles with a time of 39.13. Before Friday, Bartram had never had a top-four finish at the state meet.
Thanks to Barnhill, the Bears got two.
"Two of the runners ahead of David are seniors," Cromwell said. "We were talking about him making a run at a state title as a senior, but he'll be shooting for one next year."
Bartram's girls team earned a fifth place finish in the 4x800 meter relay.
The team featuring Carli Cooper, Katelin Swift, Sarah Hakala and Courtney Cooper finished with a time of 9:46.75.
Each girl is an underclassmen.
"It's quite exciting thinking about these four girls running together again next year," Bartram girls coach David Frank said.
Aubrey Kersey competed in three events, an impressive number, but failed to place in any event.
Scott Baltz also did not place for Bartram in the pole vault.

If you’re going to live in a tiny house, you need to understand the state laws, especially in Minnesota, South Carolina, and other U.S. states.
Every phenomenon, be it natural or man-made, has thrown up some other situations to mankind in its wake.
So, just like a quake can lead to a tsunami, environmental deterioration and global warming have given birth to a new breed of environmentally-conscious, modern humans who are dumping their big homes and settling for tiny houses to save costs and build energy efficiencies.
Tiny houses are regulated by the Minnesota State Building code. The code states that every tiny house must be built on 500 to 2,000 square feet, and the minimum house size is 24 feet by 24 feet or a 20 feet dimension. Recreational park trailers are also regarded as tiny houses, but the gross floor area must not exceed 400 square feet when constructed.
According to recent findings by the National Association of Home Builders in the US, over 50% of Americans would prefer to live in a small house (less than 600 square feet).
The interest in living small is, in fact, higher among the millennials. 63% of millennials expressed their willingness to live in tiny homes, when compared to the 29% and 45% of seniors and baby boomers, respectively.
Many people are preferring to live small but have bigger lives. That is to say, they admitted to having improved their quality of life by shedding material excesses like clothes and furniture.
A family in Minnesota said that life is good after they cut out the unnecessary things from their life that caused them stress and moved from a 2,000-square-foot dwelling to a 267 square feet mini house.
Now, this may all seem so good and an environmentally responsible affair, but setting up a tiny home is not as easy as it sounds. Spoiler alert!
The United States has some regulations around the building and living in tiny houses, which you may need to consider before making the switch.
These laws vary from state to state – while some US states are more supportive of the idea, some are not ready yet.
Minnesota is one of those tiny-house-friendly places in the country with a score of 7 out of 10 in the supportive meter.
Therefore, if you are in Minnesota and planning to move to a tiny house, you are likely to face lesser hurdles and headaches than those in other states like Alabama, South Carolina Arkansas, New York, or Connecticut.
But what are the Minnesota tiny house laws? What should one comply to live happily and legally in a tiny house in Minnesota?
This article has put together a simple checklist of the Minnesota tiny house laws with all the details.
However, before discussing that, it is important to understand what qualifies as a tiny house.
What are Tiny Houses?
Loosely speaking, any moveable or immoveable dwelling with a living area between 100 and 400 square feet qualifies as a “tiny house” in legal parlance.
These mini dwellings reflect people’s environmental awareness – the need to control consumerism, live in a minimalistic way, and save more energy.
Tiny houses also save living costs, as the idea is pivoted around minimalism.
The tiny house zoning laws will apply based on the kind of tiny house one owns.
There are broadly two types of tiny houses:
- The Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU).
- The Recreational Vehicles (RVs).
The ADUs are generally on a foundation, that is, fixed structures (either detached or attached) on an extended area of the main house.
By virtue of being on a foundation, they naturally fall under the legal requirements of building houses in a state.
The RVs are, however, not built on a fixed foundation. They are home on wheels and families move about in these from one place to another, parking is one major consideration.
Living permanently in RVs is technically unlawful. However, many Americans dodge the law by lying low and parking in personal spaces of friends and families.
Also, you can bypass the regulations if you claim that you were only camping and not living permanently in an RV.
But remember, this excuse is valid no longer than a period of 30 days at a stretch, beyond which you can be hauled up for violation of codes.
Also, RVs can be officially parked only in designated camp areas and not just about any location that suits your fancy.
Minnesota: The Quick, Concise Tiny House Laws Checklist
The Minnesota houses and building constructions and regulated by the State’s Building Code.
Tiny houses also fall within this code. The Code applies to all the following categories of constructions:
- Recreational Vehicles or Park Trailers
- Prefabricated Buildings
- Industrialized or Modular Buildings (Park Models)
- HUD Manufactured homes (HUD stands for Housing and Urban Development)
- Site-built Structures
Apart from prefabricated buildings, all of the rest can be considered tiny houses in Minnesota based on their size, structure, and use.
Hence, the same Building Code and Zoning Restrictions would apply.
Every individual municipality in Minnesota has its own separate requirements to regulate the location, height, width, land use, etc. of the constructed dwellings.
The tiny house laws in a nutshell:
- The structure should be sturdy enough to take all sorts of loads (wind/snow loads, live loads, seismic loads, roof loads, etc.).
- 8% of the floor area in habitable rooms should have natural light and 4% should be naturally ventilated.
- 3 square feet of bathrooms should have natural light and 1.5 square feet should be naturally ventilated. There can be mechanical ventilation arrangements too. You must keep provisions for intake/exhaust outlets.
- Houses must maintain a minimum room temperature of 68 degrees at 3 feet above the floor and 2 feet from the outside walls (without using portable heaters).
- Each house should have a minimum of 1 habitable room of 120 square feet. Except for kitchens, other rooms should have 7ft dimensions (ceiling height). Basements to have 6ft 8″ ceiling height. (Note: Slope ceiling measurements are different.)
- Each house should have a water closet, lavatory, and tub or shower.
- The kitchen should have a sink.
- All plumbing fittings should connect to a sewer or septic system. They must also be connected to an approved water supply. Both hot and cold water provisions are to be kept. For other detailed specifications for plumbing fittings clearances, you may check the Minnesota plumbing code.
- Bathtub and shower surfaces should be made of non-absorbent materials and a minimum of 6ft above the floor.
- Every room/enclosed area in the house must have at least 1 working emergency exit (door or window). The emergency exit opening must be 5.7 square feet in dimension.
- Every house should have provisions for egress. The door of the egress should be distinctly 32 inches wide and 78 inches high. It should have a floor or landing on each side of the external doors. External landings should be definitely attached to the main structure of the house.
- Hallways should be at least 36 inches in width.
- Stairways should also be at least 36 inches in width.
- Stair steps should be t least 10 inches wide and the stair riser must be a maximum of 7.75 inches.
- You should provide stair nosing that complies with this section.
- The top and bottom of every stairway should have a floor or landing.
- Stairs having 4 or more steps should have a handrail.
- Smoke alarms are mandatory in the following areas:
- every bedroom,
- in the immediate area near the bedrooms, and
- in every additional story of the house, (basements, habitable attics, etc.).
- Every house should have a carbon monoxide alarm with fuel-fired applications or an attached garage.
- The house should be compliant with the Minnesota Energy Code.
- The house should be compliant with the Minnesota Mechanical Code.
- The dwelling should be compliant with the Minnesota Plumbing Code.
- All electrical service, wiring, and fixtures for the structure must comply with the most current National Electrical Code.
- All tiny houses must display a data label on their exterior mentioning the information at a minimum:
- Compliant codes
- Serial number or vehicle identification number
- Name and address of the manufacturer (in case of RVs, trailers, and park models)
- Date of manufacture (in case of RVs, trailers, and park models)
- Declaration of standard – design complies with ANSI A119.5 (for RVs and trailers)
- Design loads
- IBC Label numbers (for industrialized modular structures)
- Occupancy and type of construction (for industrialized modular structures)
So these are the Minnesota tiny house laws basic checklist.
However, you may also need to look into the other associated codes for covering all regulations properly.
For example, please do look up the State’s Plumbing, Mechanical, or Energy Codes as well before you start living in your tiny house.
These mini dwellings are a growing trend now because they have lower eco footprints than traditional homes. But they still comprise a very small portion of the housing industry.
Having said that, it is also true that the projections look very optimistic.
Between 2018 and 2022, the global tiny home market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7%, mainly driven by the cost-effective aspect of constructing homes.
Most of the tiny home market, however, belongs to the Americas.
Now, if you are planning to live in an eco-friendly, stress-free, financially-viable, low-maintenance tiny house, all you need to truly consider are the building and house laws prevailing in your state, along with the zoning restrictions that apply within that jurisdiction.

CLEVELAND — According to Cleveland Municipal court records, 24-year-old Rorell Dickerson of Cleveland, who CPD Headquarters confirmed is a police officer for the fifth district, was pulled over for operating a dirt bike.
He was charged with willful wanton disregard, for jeopardizing neighborhood safety, and with operating a dirt bike with a suspended license.
According to court records, the incident happened Saturday Feb. 22 at 4 p.m. on Vandalia Avenue, near the intersection of West 58.
Police said Dickerson was riding on one wheel, and doing a "wheelie" when he was stopped.
Homeowners in the neighborhood, who said they are constantly dealing with rogue dirt bike riders on their street, told News 5 the incident is upsetting and disappointing, especially since there is a school and park less than 1000 feet from where Dickerson was stopped.
Cleveland Police Headquarters told News 5 the case is the subject of an internal investigation, while it looks into Dickerson's driving status.
Dickerson's next court date in Cleveland Municipal Court on the charges is set for March 6.


LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- It was already a late start for Louisville City FC, visiting Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC for a scheduled 9 p.m. (EDT) kickoff Friday night. Then the game was delayed 90 minutes because of weather.
In their locker room at Colorado Springs’ brand-new Weidner Field, opened just this past April, LouCity players handled a few false starts, and sat around trying to keep from getting lethargic – and bored.
“It’s more about staying calm, getting some extra food if you need,” LouCity defender Pat McMahon said. “We kind of played little games to keep our minds busy so we weren’t just sitting there bored. As it gets closer, there were 3 to 4 times when they said, ‘OK, we’re going out,’ and then we came back in. It’s just getting mentally prepared, and then once we went out, we were in the warm-up and getting ready. Just not getting too high before the game and save your energy.”
LouCity had every excuse for entering the game on a high. Not only did it come in off back-to-back wins, with just one loss in its previous eight games, but it was playing on the highest-altitude home pitch in American soccer.
The result wasn’t the kind of offensive fireworks show that LouCity has been putting on over the past month or so. LouCity did take a 1-0 lead when Antoine Hoppenot netted his first goal of the season, off a Jonathan Gomez cross in the 74th minute. But the good feeling quickly dissipated when Colorado Springs’ Michee Ngalina turned in a great individual effort to dribble the ball into the box and score between defenders in the 84th minute.
Nobody from LouCity was cheering the 1-1 result, but the draw does leave the home team five points up in first place in the USL Eastern Division, and came amid some adversity, including a game without leading scorer Cameron Lancaster and midfielder Corben Bone, both out with injuries.
“This was not an easy game,” LouCity manager Danny Cruz said. “The game kicked off late and altitude and tough stadium to play in, and at the same time I thought the guys responded well. We were on the back foot for a little bit, absorbed some pressure, but ultimately was happy that we got the goal to go up, but frustrated to concede the goal late. . . . We walk away with the draw in a tough environment. We’re not smiling about it, but we’ll certainly learn from the game.”
LouCity held just 42 percent of possession and generated just four shots on goal, two in each half.
It took them 73 minutes to break the ice, after Jorge Gonzalez played a ball from the top of the box left to Gomez, who found Hoppenot in front of goal with a cross. It was the fifth assist of the season for LouCity’s phenom defender, and the first goal of the season for Hoppenot – the 11th LouCity player to score in the past nine games -- who hoped a recent haircut might change his fortunes in what had been a bit of a frustrating campaign to date.
“Obviously we’ve been doing well as a team, so it hasn’t been too frustrating,” Hoppenot said. “But on the personal level you want to help the team with more goals and more assists as a forward. So it’s frustrating in that sense. But, you know, this one is hopefully a starting point, and we play on Wednesday and Saturday. There’s plenty of opportunities, we’re only a third of the way through the season.”
Altitude can be a factor with fatigue, but McMahon said his fatigue issues came in the first half, not the second.
“I think first half, for me personally I felt a little fatigued quicker, I would say,” he said. “But going into the second half I think a lot of us got our second wind and were able to control it a little better, and it wasn’t as much up and down, which I think helped us.”
There won’t be much rest for the home team. LouCity will spend much of Saturday in Colorado Springs before departing for Kansas City, where they will play on Wednesday night.
“We’re all frustrated giving up a late goal,” McMahon said. “Looking on the bright side, I guess, it’s a point. But you look at it, we should close the game out and get three points and help separate ourselves from second place and keep pushing forward. It’s a tough week this week and to start with three points would be ideal. We’ll just focus on the next game. It’s a quick turnaround so I think that will help.”

Asking where to find “real BBQ” may be the best way to start a good-natured food fight in America. People have strong feelings whether they are on team Kansas City, Texas, Memphis or North Carolina. Those four styles of BBQ aren’t the only barbecue methods, but they’re the majority in the U.S. Here’s what you need to know about each.
Kansas City: They Have Their Own Barbecue Society
Kansas City lays claim to one of the top four styles of BBQ like Chicago with pizza and Boston with baked beans. The culinary tradition has resulted in a bucket-list-worthy collection of barbecue restaurants throughout the city, which embraces barbecue as part of its tourist trade. There’s also a Kansas City Barbecue Society that holds judging classes and barbecue competitions nationally and worldwide, all in the pursuit of smoky goodness.
The events are a place for barbecue enthusiasts to meet and mingle. Some of the competitions pay substantial cash prizes and draw contestants from around the country. A fellow named Henry Perry brought barbecue to KC in the 1920s. He smoked and served meats from an outdoor pit next door to his streetcar barn. But he didn’t establish any particular style for BBQ.
In fact, the main distinction of Kansas City BBQ is that a vast selection of meat makes it onto the menu. That includes beef, pork turkey, mutton and sometimes fish. There’s always going to be KC-style sauce, whether the method is slow-cooking, grilling, smoking or a combination. The local sauce is tomato-based and sweet, with spicy and tangy aspects, depending on the establishment or cook.
North Carolina BBQ: Vinegar’s the Saucy Secret
It’s not so much a North-South argument since Kansas City is in the Midwest. But tempers can flare when people pit North Carolina barbecue against its sweet-sauce relative from KC. North Carolina favors pork for barbecue and serves it in chunks, shredded, chopped into smaller pieces, or thin-sliced. The Carolina style allows for a dry rub if desired, but all the meat is smoked.
But what really gives Carolina BBQ its distinction is what the Southerners call a “mop.” Basically, the technique calls for “mopping” the meat with a combination of spices and vinegar while it smokes on the hardwood. Within Carolina barbecue are two distinct styles. In addition to the mop, the Eastern North Carolina camp also serves a thin sauce made with vinegar and simple spices.
North Carolina BBQ purists use just vinegar with a smidgen of cayenne, just enough to give it some zip. Western North Carolina barbecue uses only pork shoulder, so it’s mostly dark meat. And while it would be heresy on the other side of the state, Western North Carolina isn’t above noodling with the barbecue sauce recipe by adding a bit of tomato via sauce, paste, or even ketchup.
Memphis Style BBQ: Ranks High with Ribs and Rubs
Memphis, Tennessee is not just home to the blues and the birthplace of Elvis. Memphis also makes a mean barbecue, with patience as one of the main ingredients. Memphis BBQ beef or chicken are part of the menu at the city’s restaurants, diners, and, in more recent years, its fleet of food trucks. But the more typical and revered Memphis meat is pork, meaning pork ribs and pork shoulders.
Another Memphis signature is slow cooking the meat in a pit. “Wet” refers to the sauce cooks apply as a marinade, a baste, and as a final brush after the meat comes off the heat. Diners just eat them like that, without adding more sauce. That would mess with the complex, wonderful balance of meat-to-sauce the cooks established.
As for dry rub ribs and shoulders, Memphis is renowned for them. A rub is just a mix of salt and other spices. Some of them are a proprietary mix people guard and hand down from generation to generation. The rub draws out the meat’s juices, and in Memphis, it takes away any need for eating sauce on the barbecue.
Texas: So Big It Has Four Styles of BBQ
The “Don’t mess with Texas” motto extends to the colossal state’s barbecue offerings. They get touchy if you confuse their slow-cooked meat or the big shebangs they throw to eat it with those dinky gas grill hamburger cookouts. But even with all the beef BBQ heritage, Texas can’t settle on one type of BBQ. Instead, there are four styles within the state including:
- South Texas BBQ: This method has a slow-as-molasses sauce that makes the meat super moist. The pitmaster bastes the South BBQ with the stuff as it cooks.
- Western Texas BBQ: They method is cowboy-style, with the meat meeting direct heat from a mesquite wood fire.
- Central Texas BBQ: Aficionados employ a stylized spicy dry rub and love their indirect heat cooking methods.
- East Texas BBQ: It may not have inspired the first claim of “fall off the bone” tenderness in BBQ lore, but it’s kept up that reputation. The secret? They don’t just slather barbecue sauce on the finished product, they start East Texas BBQ with a marinade in the sweet, tomatoey stuff.
These are the four styles of BBQ every foodie needs to know. It helps to know the food style of the place you visit. Even if you don’t go there, knowing how they BBQ certain foods can help you order at restaurants, too. So, if you’re a barbecue lover, you’ll know exactly what to order from the menu.

|26 April 1826
|Hale, Aurelia (cb. 1798)
|Hale, Sarah W.
|This letter appears to have been written in response to a letter from Sarah notifying her of their mother's death. Aurelia says that she is glad that their mother's "days of sorrow and trouble are ended," and expresses some of her fond memories of their mother, especially from her childhood. She asks for assurances that their mother was comfortable when she died and for further information about their mother's burial. She also urges Sarah to "regain" her health over the summer.

After a brief break, the Taste of Country Top 10 Video Countdown is back! And there are a lot of changes! Several videos have reached the end of their time in the countdown poll, which means they've been deleted — but don't worry, as there are a slew of new videos hoping for your votes.

Note: All votes now need to be verified with a captcha. Fans can vote for one video, once every hour until the poll closes next Friday at 12PM ET. The weekly Top 10 will be revealed the following Monday after the poll closes. Videos are retired after six months, or when fans lose interest or when an artist releases a new video for a current single.

Just DON'T do it: Adidas fury at Gotze wearing a Nike shirt at Bayern unveiling
New Bayern Munich signing Mario Gotze has invoked the wrath of his club's kit-makers Adidas - by turning up to his official unveiling in a Nike t-shirt.
Gotze, who arrived from Bayern's German and Champions League rivals Borussia Dortmund as Pep Guardiola's new signing, proudly held his new number 19 shirt, with a huge Nike 'swoosh' on his t-shirt.
Adidas are the long-standing sponsors of the European Champions, and even hold a 9.1 per cent stake in the club, while the sportswear giant's CEO, Herbert Hainer, is a member of Bayern's board.
Clash of brands: Mario Gotze presents his new Bayern shirt, but Adidas are unhappy at his Nike t-shirt
Your number's up: Gotze, a £32million signing from rivals Borussia Dortmund, will wear number 19 at Bayern
But the company have hit back at the pictures of £32million Gotze, as only Adidas should have a presence at what they deem an 'official Bayern Munich function'.
'The pictures from today's press conference with Mario Gotze have negatively surprised us,' confirmed a spokesman. 'Contractually it is not permissible because it is an official function of Adidas partner Bayern Munich. We have already discussed with Bayern Munich.'
Another gaffe: Although not visible in this picture, Jan Kirchhoff's shirt also carried Nike's 'swoosh' (below)
Gotze can wear Nike boots as per his sponsorship deal, but for official presentations like his unveiling must wear an adidas Bayern shirt.
The other player to be announced to the press was Mainz defender Jan Kirchhoff - and his t-shirt was also from boot sponsors Nike.
Kirchhoff sported a grey t-shirt with a 'Go Like Hell' slogan, with the Nike emblem underneath.
