Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade
890. To ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade his reaction to recent reports highlighting levels of acute hunger and food insecurity throughout Africa and the Middle East; the status of the low level of current funding towards United Nations humanitarian appeals for these regions; his views on whether the Annual Meeting on the Grand Bargain on 30 June 2022 as an opportunity for Ireland to rally its partners to pledge real aid to this situation of utmost urgency; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [30931/22]
Global food insecurity is at record level. By the end of last year, nearly 193 million people were experiencing crisis levels of food insecurity, an increase of almost 40 million over the previous record in 2020.
This situation has continued to worsen in 2022. The Russian invasion of Ukraine, including its effective blockade on shipping from Ukraine's Black Sea ports, has restricted access to wheat and fertilizers. This has had an upward pressure on global food prices, exacerbating the precarious situation of vulnerable people particularly in countries experiencing ongoing humanitarian crises.
The United Nation’s outlook for June to September 2022 identified 20 hunger hotspots where lives and livelihoods are at risk and urgent humanitarian action is a priority. These hotspots, with the exception of Afghanistan and Haiti, are all in Africa and the Middle East. In six of these countries – Afghanistan, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Somalia, South Sudan and Yemen – there is a real and terrifying prospect of starvation and death.
The United Nations reports that its humanitarian appeals are significantly underfunded, at 18.2% of estimated resource requirement. That said, the amount of funding given in response to these appeals significantly higher in absolute terms than at this point in previous years.
There is a collective responsibility to act and Ireland is leading by example. Through our range of experienced and trusted partners, including UN agencies, the Red Cross family and NGOs, the Irish Aid programme is supporting responses across the globe, with a strong focus on the 20 hunger hotspots. The Irish Aid allocation for humanitarian action this year, at €113 million, is substantially higher than last year, and is likely to increase further before year end in response to these emerging needs. Separately, and to help address the underlying causes of food insecurity, Ireland has pledged to invest €800 million by 2027 in improving global food and nutrition systems.
As the informal focal point on Conflict and Hunger on the United Nations Security Council, Ireland is consistent advocate for urgent attention and action on global food insecurity. We are also a strong voice at the EU on collective action.
The Grand Bargain Annual High Level Meeting will take place on 30 June and 1 July in Geneva. This will bring together 64 donor signatories, UN agencies, the Red Cross family and NGOs. While this is not a pledging conference, it is a timely opportunity for key humanitarian actors to discuss and agree on the collective actions necessary to respond to rising global hunger. Ireland will use this important opportunity to advocate for an urgent, scaled-up response that targets those most in need.
891. To ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade the plans that Ireland has in the context of food insecurity in Syria that may be exacerbated by the political and economic effects of the Ukrainian crisis in the event that humanitarian access to Syria from Turkey becomes blocked and its partners have to address this crisis at political and humanitarian levels; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [30932/22]
With over 14 million people inside Syria requiring assistance, Syria has been one of the most complex humanitarian crises in the world since the conflict there began over a decade ago. In addition to those affected within the country, millions more Syrians have left the country as refugees, the majority to neighbouring countries.
This is the context within which the wider impacts of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, including the restriction of grain exports, are reverbating, within Syria and also across its neighbours. In Syria itself, almost two-thirds of the population are expected to face food shortages in 2022.
This year, through the Irish Aid programme, the Government will provide over €23 million to the Syria humanitarian response. This will bring Ireland’s assistance to Syria since 2012 to over €216 million, our largest ever response to a humanitarian crisis. Using a variety of trusted partners, we ensure that critical assistance reaches those most in need. This includes displaced Syrians still within the country as well as refugees in Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq and Turkey.
Ireland is also addressing the issue of food insecurity directly, notably through funding of €8 million (provided through the Department of Agriculture, Food, and the Marine) to assist the World Food Programme’s activities both within Syria and in the neighbouring countries.
Ireland also provides significant humanitarian funding at the global level, including to the UN’s Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF). In the last six months, the CERF has provided $25 million in critical assistance to Syria with the largest proportion going to support food security. Ireland also contributes to the EU response to the crisis – so far this year the European Commission has mobilised €135 million in humanitarian aid to provide vital assistance (including food and nutritional support) to millions of people inside Syria.
Since joining the Security Council in 2021, Ireland and Norway have served as co-penholders on the Syria humanitarian file. In July 2021, we were pleased to secure Resolution 2585 by consensus, which extended the mandate for the UN’s cross border operation at Bab al-Hawa for 12 months. Ahead of the expiry of that mandate in July, Ireland and Norway are continuing to engage extensively across the Council, making the case that humanitarian aid must continue to reach all people in need.

As we have stated before, it's your special day, so do things that make you happy. If you enjoy something, there's a good chance that your guests will like it too. The desserts mentioned below can be served alongside a small wedding cake, instead of it altogether, or choose more than one to make up an entire dessert bar.
Cupcakes & Cake Pops
Yes, technically this is pretty much the same thing as cake, but these little versions are perfect for a small wedding. Another bonus to serving these instead of one big cake is that there is no fight over whether you will serve white or chocolate. Instead, you can order a variety of flavors.
Another cake-like dessert, yet totally different. This is a fun twist that many guests will be tickled to see... and eat. If you are creative and very careful, these can even be stacked in a way that resembles a cake. They also are excellent for a late-night snack after hours of dancing.
This dessert fits in perfectly at a rustic country wedding, and there are so many to choose from: fruit, cream, meringue, and even cheesecake!. You can use mini pie tins and offer a lot of different kinds, fill a table with many large pies, or place one at each individual table for those sitting around it to relish.
These are desserts that are served out of a shot glass or tiny drinking glass. Miniature versions of strawberry shortcake, banana pudding, chocolate mousse, or some type of similar food can be served in individual portions this way. Using small mason jars would be perfect for a rustic twist.
If you come from a family of cooks and bakers, then there are probably a few amazing recipes that have been passed down over time. Cookies, brownies, trifles, tarts, pies, cakes... anything that your family is "famous" for. You can have your family members make these for the wedding ahead of time, or you can give the recipes to a professional baker to recreate for you, but only if you're willing to share those secret recipes!
A Candy Bar
We aren't only talking about "candy bars" like a Milky Way or Butterfinger (even though those could be used for this too) but a table full of a variety of candies in jars or other cute containers. Guests can fill bags full of their favorite sweets to take back to the table or home with them after the reception. Wrapped candies work well for easy grabbing, or you can use bulk unwrapped candy and provide a pretty scoop to dig in with.
DIY Dessert Station
Put your guests to work, but in a fun, delicious way. Set up a station for making s'mores or ice cream sundaes. Fall would be an excellent time to incorporate a caramel apple making station. Provide the base ingredients plus plenty of toppings, then let everyone start assembling their dessert.
Whatever dessert you choose to serve, it's a great way to add a bit of personalization and flair to your small country wedding near Knoxville. If you are in need of a baker, Country Jewell knows many talented local wedding vendors. Tell us what you have in mind and we'll do our best to connect you with the right person for the job.
A delightfully quaint Knoxville wedding
& event venue.

A heart’s weakened pumping ability can’t always be improved, but there are situations in which treatment and aggressive lifestyle changes can make a positive difference.
Congestive heart failure (CHF) is a condition in which your heart is no longer able to pump enough blood to consistently meet your body’s needs. It’s usually a chronic condition that worsens over time. But if it’s diagnosed and treated early on, CHF can sometimes be reversed or at least halted for a time.
By committing to a heart-healthy lifestyle and following to a strict medication regimen, you may be able to improve heart function. Other treatments may also be necessary to address underlying heart conditions or deal with new conditions that come along.
The key to possibly reversing CHF or prolonging your life with the condition is to work closely with a healthcare team and make the necessary changes to support better heart health.
There’s no cure for CHF.
In some cases, though, significant lifestyle changes and medications can slow or reverse the course of CHF and improve cardiac function.
If valve disease is the main cause of heart failure, successful valve replacement or repair may be enough to restore the heart’s healthy pumping ability.
Cardiac remodeling usually occurs after there’s damage to the heart, such as a heart attack or the onset of heart failure, and can change your heart’s shape, size, and function.
The life expectancy for someone with CHF depends on several factors, especially the stage of the disease, age, and overall health.
Other complicating heart conditions, such as valve disease or an arrhythmia, can also affect your outlook.
It can be difficult to generalize about life expectancy with heart failure because of so many individualized factors. But, a
CHF is considered a chronic condition that usually worsens over time. The
But, with treatment, sometimes CHF symptoms and complications can be temporary. Treatment may effectively manage symptoms and bolster cardiac function so that there may be little or no change in your overall health.
Exercise can be a critical part of reversing heart failure or at least controlling symptoms.
Because heart failure can affect the types of exercises you do and at what intensity, it’s important to exercise under the supervision of a cardiologist or a cardiac rehabilitation specialist. Through cardiac rehab, you can learn how to exercise safely while also helping your cardiovascular health.
Sticking to a heart-healthy diet is another key lifestyle change that can make a difference in how long and how well you live with heart failure.
Because CHF leads to a buildup of fluid in the body, dietary choices that help reduce fluid levels are essential. This means managing sodium intake, as high levels of sodium can cause your body to retain fluid and worsen heart failure symptoms.
But, a 2023 report suggests that going below 2.3 grams of sodium daily offers no significant health benefits for people with heart failure and might actually raise the risk of other cardiovascular conditions.
Otherwise, aim for a diet that emphasizes:
- whole grains
- lean proteins (including oily fish, such as salmon)
The Mediterranean diet is considered an especially helpful diet for anyone with heart disease. Likewise, the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet may be a good choice, particularly if you have high blood pressure in addition to heart failure.
While medications and changes in your dietary and physical activity routines are important, there are many other steps you can take to improve your health and quality of life with heart failure. One important step is to address your mental health through talk therapy.
Other natural ways to help include:
- getting enough sleep
- managing stress through meditation, yoga, breathing techniques, etc.
- quitting smoking
CHF is a serious health concern that can affect everyday functioning, longevity, and quality of life. If you receive a diagnosis of CHF, talk with a doctor about lifestyle changes you can make and follow a medication and healthcare regimen that will support better heart health.
There’s no cure for CHF, but committing to a heart-healthy lifestyle may help reverse or slow down congestive heart health.

Written by Sean Ellis & Frank E. Flowers
Directed by Sean Ellis
Manila has the highest population density on the planet. Per square mile there are 111,002 people; by comparison my home of Chicago is only 11,868. While many economists look at the Phillipines as an marketon the rise, the disparity in wealth is the worst in Asia, with the richest families accounting for over 50% of the country’s total family income while the poorest account for less than 5%. In Manila, the rich live in gated communities while the poor live in slums, squatting on abandoned government-owned land. It’s important to know these facts when approaching Sean Ellis’ Metro Manila, because the city plays such a large role in determining the destiny of its characters.
Oscar Ramirez (Jake Macapagal) and his wife Mai (Althea Vega) are rice farmers who decide moving to the city will yield better opportunities for themselves and their two young children. Rice isn’t fetching the same price it used to – not even enough to buy seed for the next season – so this plan doesn’t seem like the worst idea, until the Ramirezes get there and are swindled out of their savings and find themselves homeless and starving. Through chance, Oscar finds himself as a guard for an armored car delivery service; his wife becomes a comfort girl at a seedy bar that lets her kids sleep in the dressing room. At no point does Oscar admonish his wife for having to do what many men in these types of films dread the most, and it’s one of the most telling aspects of the film. This is how desperate these times are, and that their love for each other is about sacrifice – not ownership – and that they must live for each other and for the lives of their children.
Every hand that reaches out to help the Ramirezes, if any, only does so with the intention to exploit them for personal gain, and it’s because of this that Metro Manila can feel as oppressive as its subject matter. Watching Oscar and his family run into nothing but one duplicitous schemer after another can be as overwhelmingly smothering as the city itself, bursting with people on top of people on top of people. While it’s necessary for the film to bear down on these characters to see how strong their wills hold up, it sometimes borders on contrivance with a reliance on some of the “greatest hits” of immigrant exploitation films of the past. However, it doesn’t seem as though this movie is trying to present this particular story – with tropes found in a sub-genre that includes films like this year’s The Immigrant and Stephen Frears’ Dirty Pretty Things(2002) – as something new. The story remains the same, only the location has changed. Metro Manila is at once foreign and even exotic, but it’s heart is identifiable no matter where you reside. Oscar sacrificing his life for a paltry wage to protect other people’s riches and Mai being reduced to using her body to make money isn’t just isolated to Manila – it happens to men and women the world over and has been for very long time.
Sean Ellis isn’t Filipino. A British filmmaker who emerged with his Academy Award nominated short film Cashback(2004), which he turned into a first feature, Ellis had visited the country once, and found himself wanting to make a movie about the people of Manila. What allows an outsider like Ellis to make a film like Metro Manila is the ability to find universal truths in his character’s situation. A speech given by Oscar’s partner Ong (played with honest conviction and desperation by John Arcilla) has him extolling the foolishness of the lottery, but it reveals what he perceives to be the methodology in which people manage to exist in such a harsh word. He tells Oscar that no one really knows any one who has won, but people keep lining up to do it because hope is enough. Ong, however, knows that winning is ultimately impossible. This cynical and fatalistic approach underlies almost every character we run into in Metro Manila, save for the Ramirez family. Ellis’ film posits that this mindset is a product of when the capitalist exploitation of labor meets an overabundance of laborers; laborers who not only recognize that they’re being exploited, but who must in turn take advantage of and oppress each other to succeed. When human value is measured monetarily – in a world where economy dictates survival – it becomes very easy to treat each other as disposable commodities. Metro Manila acknowledges these troubling realities, but still manages to remain hopeful that our sacrifices for the love of others are not in vain.


Los Angeles, so far, will have the most City Targets of any city in the country with three confirmed locations: Downtown LA, Westwood, and Beverly Connection by the Beverly Center. The most exciting one to me (obviously!) is the Downtown LA location still under construction at FIGat7th, which will be a tremendous boost to the nascent retail scene developing in LA’s urban core.
This really got me excited! Two new signs went up over the past week in Downtown LA that are clear indications that some really exciting new changes are coming to Downtown LA that will help continue to push the momentum along for the decade-long revitalization that’s been occurring in our urban core. A new unique urban concept called “City Target” and the renowned architect firm, Gensler, announced their official arrival with new signs in the Financial District.

According to the latest accommodation survey by ECA International, Singapore’s ranking for high-end rental has fallen to 7th place in Asia this year, three places from 4th in 2016. The survey compared luxury high-end 3-bed room apartments across 230 cities in the world. Based on the survey, such accommodation in Singapore cost S$6,426/month on average.
Renters of Singapore’s exorbitant 3-room condominiums are usually foreign expatriates working in Singapore, and the survey result is often used as a reference by multi-national companies (MNCs) to deploy executives.
Asia regional director of ECA International, Lee Quane, said:
“Firstly, expatriate numbers in Singapore have stabilised recently, which has curbed demand for rental property in popular expatriate neighbourhoods. Furthermore, improved transport links in Singapore have led to movement away from historically popular districts such as 9-11 to cheaper locations. Singapore has also received more assignees from places such as China, Malaysia, Taiwan and Thailand whose housing budgets are likely to be lower. These factors, combined with an increased supply of property in the market, have caused landlords to respond by reducing rental prices.”

Juice: Powerful even in a one man act
One of the greatest break through movies for an actor was Juice. The major production catapulted Tupac's ability as an actor, but also opened up the movie business for music artist. If you aren't aware of the movie you should be! Juice showed how power can destroy friendships but also break people. Their are not many people that will tell you Juice was a poor movie. It literally changed my mind and perspective of friendship.
Now to the topic at hand. As you may know, I love to show off talent that presents its-self to me and I have found something serious. Imagine your favorite movie, now think of someone coming in and reproducing it in less than two or three minutes, at a low production level and still giving you the same impression. Well I have found someone who has managed to do that. Now Juice is not my favorite movie but it still moved me to see this reproduction of this famous scene.

The lovely ‘Beauty & Seoul‘ gave me some advice on products that would suit my skin.
This was one of her suggestions and it didn’t disappoint, it could be my favourite sheet mask! That’s a big claim!!
What is it?
“Natural ingredients such as honey and primrose oil help to soothe the skin when dealing with outbreaks or flare ups. Also containing Ceramide Complex, the mask also firms the skin to give added resilience. A really gentle way of treating irritated skin. Jumiso Masks are made of cupra sheets which have excellent breath-ability. The sheet adheres to your skin tightly and minimises the loss of essence“.
How to use it?
I applied to cleansed and toned skin. I opened up the sheet mask, which was very saturated in product and removed the mesh. This was easy to apply to my skin and the mask itself was so soft and fitted very well. I left it on for about 30mins and then removed, massaging in any excess and remembering to spread any spare product from the packet onto my neck and decollete.
This mask was lovely to wear, very soft and a lovely fit. My skin felt so soothed and refreshed and it looked hydrated and calm. I genuinely think this is one of my favourite soothing sheet masks. This mask just does exactly what it is supposed to.
- Easy to use
- Feels so soft & fits well
- Soothing, calming and hydrating
- Genuinely…is there one??
You can buy this mask from here.
PS This mask wasn’t gifted, just my genuine opinion.

La Palma Volcano (Canary Islands (Spain)) Activity Update – Lava Fountains To 10,000ft (3 min)
9/21/2021 — Major Seismic Unrest Worldwide — La Palma Volcano to Australia M6.0 near Melbourne (1:56)
I always thought the Australia was pretty stable on it’s own plate. However, as Dutch says the energy has flowed around the plate and then transfers to Eurasia but we always tend to get a push from the North West which travels diagonally across central Australia. The 6.0 in Victoria is the biggest quake in recorded (Australian) history. It is the coastal craton and their are a number of volcanic fields there. Coverage of Australia begins at 4:08. The USGS are saying that La Palma is nothing to worry about. Perhaps they are right….but they have been caught lying multiple times. We shall wait and see and keep a close eye on it.
The most important videos indicated in red (for the time poor). Hint: increase playback speed. For show notes and references select the YouTube Button on the video.
A number of videos from the last 24 hours reporting on recent solar activity and recent asteroid encounters. We experienced geomagnetic storms in certain parts of the globe but nothing serious. The take away point is that the near-misses are becoming more frequent and it only takes one direct hit to have devastating consequences. The law of averages says that we are overdue.
Not only are we having to deal with Space Weather but the techno-fascists are themselves tinkering with the weather system. The following video from Mike Morales shows clear signs of spraying aerosols (16 mins):
Inbound Debris (22 mins)
Geoengineering the Great Barrier Reef – Marine Cloud Brightening (24 mins)
So you thought geoengineering was another one of those “conspiracies” (lolz). You have got some catching up to do. The techno-fascists think they can control nature and outsmart God.
Magnetic Field of Earth Could Be Jolted by Incoming CME’s, Sparking an “Internet Apocalypse” (12 mins)
The modern world is much more fragile than people realize especially now that our magnetic shield is so weak.
Tropical Storm Mindy & Olaf Form – Hail The Size Of Baseballs! – The Media Is Propaganda Not Science (29 mins)
This is about 24 hours old but worth a watch. Look out for the spectacular polar auroras and the LIGHTNING just before the earthquake in Acapulco (Mexico). Diamond is going to report on the 4th Climate change conference. He also comments on the open letter that Ben (from Suspicious Observers) sent to NASA. He finds himself in total agreement with what Ben is saying about Space Weather and Climate change and supports the good science that backs up the argument although he disagrees (as do I) with the pole flip-flop and global tsunami theory. Good video to watch.
Oppenheimer Ranch Has Been Shutdown! Severe Weather – Iceland Update – 400,000 Year Old Bone Tools? (10 mins)
This is Diamonds other Channel which is one step from being shutdown. Apparently they looked through some older videos and his reporting on links between Ghislaine Maxwell and Epstein constitutes cyber bullying (lolz). Apparently the media are reporting that Extreme cold is the result of global warming (lolz). Watch out for the article that shows that the earth is GROWING at the mid Atlantic ridges. The earth is expanding and our magnetism is declining. The climate is changing. It is all your fault for driving a car and eating meat. And covid is your fault as well. We need to keep you away from nature and lock you up. You cannot be trusted. Trust the science (but not with dating or modelling because they are clueless).

Watch for the Mexican earthquake
Current Sheet Encroaching, Shape Shifters, Missing Billion Years | S0 News Sep.9.2021 (6mins)
They cannot explain missing strata, nor can they explain “accelerated evolution” nor can they get the dating right. The emperor has no clothes. Someone please point out that he is naked.
As I write this I am listening and watching a video. The videos here I watched at 2.0 x speed and it felt like I was listening to Donald Duck. It makes disaster and doom sound quite funny. (lol) Things are moving very fast and literally speeding up (as is the earth itself). I feel like I am on a spinning top. I have not added any show notes – click on the “Watch on YouTube” if you want notes.
Weather or Climate?
A few short videos showing the natural disasters over the last three days. The frequency of these happenings is increasing.

Chaos in Europe! Terrible disasters in Italy! Heavy hail fell on Parma 26 July

“THE NEXT 30 YEARS WILL BE COLD,” SAYS CLIMATE SCIENTIST DR. WILLIE SOON – WORRY ABOUT AN ICE AGE!
7/29/2021 — Largest quake on planet in years — M8.2 — Massive seismic unrest spreads worldwide
This update warns California, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, Texas, Missouri, and the East coast of the USA, in addition to the warnings issued for the West Pacific, New Zealand, Indonesia, Nepal, Iran, Greece Agean sea, and the Caribbean.
Dutchsinse comments about earthquakes causing a feed back loop (at about 43 minutes) is interesting in light of antipode quakes. A good take-way from this video is that you can prepare. We are getting better at predicting earthquakes. Like storms and hurricanes etc we are starting to be able to predict their passage in advance. They are not random events so that means that you can prepare.
The Disaster Cycle Is Marching On | Special Message For You
Ben at Suspicious Observers has done sterling work. It is because of his work that we are seeing an avalanche of scientific papers now breaking through and challenging the false climate science models. My only objection to this video is what Diamond from Magnetic reversal calls the flip flop theory about crustal slip and the rotational pole etc going back and forth causing a global tsunami. Ben refers to this paper in the video – Research team discovers Arctic dinosaur nursery:
"It wasn't long ago that people were pretty shocked to find out that dinosaurs lived up in the Arctic 70 million years ago," said Pat Druckenmiller, the paper's lead author and director of the University of Alaska Museum of the North. "We now have unequivocal evidence they were nesting up there as well. This is the first time that anyone has ever demonstrated that dinosaurs could reproduce at these high latitudes."
All this does is prove that the Arctic region was warmer at one stage. It does not necessarily mean that it was somewhere else (the equator) as it can simply mean that the Jet stream changed. In fact at one stage in the past it was much, much warmer (about 50C if I remember correctly) and much higher carbon dioxide. This climate persisted for millions of years during the whole dinosaur age.
Ben says that we are already in the Galactic Sheet and I believe that he is correct. We will obviously reach some sort of maximum point at which the climate goes completely crazy and our magnetic shield drops right off. At that point we can expect a solar flare and an increase in earthquakes, volcanoes and lightening etc. I ask myself why we did not see these changes in other epochs of earths geological history? Surely our solar system traveled the same space route in the past? Perhaps it is the Parker Spiral that has changed direction or intensity?

This video is included for the aurora (?) or electrical charges filmed above China. Something is changing alright.
Buy more jars of freeze dried coffee. It is about to get a lot more expensive. Other wise how will you stay awake to watch the end of the world? (lol). Nothing like a black coffee and being black pilled to start the day.
7/08/2021 — California hit by Large M6.0 Earthquake with landslides
The first M6.0 to strike *on land* in the USA this year has now occurred at the California Nevada border on the last day of our warning for M5.0+ earthquake activity ON LAND IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST in Oregon Washington.
Warning issued for large earthquakes in the West Pacific (over 6+M) above Australia (PNG & Indonesia). Dutch comments on the explosion and quake that brought down the condo in Miami at 56.45:
A progression [of quakes of]13 miles broke on the West Coast (2 x 5.9 M quakes) Southern Cal gets hit by a 5 then a spread of 3s goes across the plate up to Indiana then a 3.9 (experimental blast) out in the ocean then a building in Miami collapses. The blast was on the edge of the plate (Bermuda Triangle)....maybe it was an experimental blast to expend energy out of the plate?
Two quakes of the coast in Western Australia under Indonesia a 3.1M and then 5 days later (same spot) a 5.1 M. South Australia hit with minor quakes (about 11 mins).
If you go to the Volcano discovery site you can chose SA and zoom in. Broken Hill is on its own mini craton and the the other small quake happened in the Flinders seismic zone. See this older article for craton maps:
6/05/2021 — Large M5.2 Earthquake + Swarm strikes Southern California Salton Sea Volcano as warned
The warning for M5.0+ activity at Salton Sea California was issued yesterday June 4, 2021 after two M5.9 earthquakes struck off the coast of Oregon. See the warning here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvbE_… Today, June 5, 2021 the expected M5.0+ earthquake and swarm struck directly at Salton Sea Calipatria California.
We have already reported on this but I thought it was worthwhile getting Dutch’s take although I am a bit slow in posting.
The warned area in Japan has now been hit by a noteworthy M6.8 earthquake. As expected for this week, we have returned back up to near M7.0 level activity. The warning was issued for Tokyo to Fukushima prefecture (warning issued yesterday April 29, 2021 while live on twitch https://twitch.tv/dutchsinseofficial) in front of a live audience of about 400 people.
4/30/2021 — Large M6.8 Earthquake strikes coast of Japan near Fukushima — No tsunami warnings
Sometimes it feels like the daily fix of fear….but that is not the intention. It is a big earth and there will always be something happening somewhere. What we are looking for are emerging patterns and frequency increases and we are starting to see them. There have been more meteorite showers this year. Freak weather is increasing and although this is partly due to Geo-engineering you can be sure that in the end natural processes will overwhelm any human interventions. Are we seeing more eruptions and seismic activity? It certainly seems that way….or is it observational bias? All I can say is that it will soon all become apparent.
ICELAND UPDATE – Inflation Continues, Fagradalsfjall Mountain – Eruption Expected In Nátthagi Valley
Extreme meteor explosion over New England causes earth tremors
March 14, 2021: A meteor fireball skyrocketing over Vermont at 42,000 mph, exploded with the energy equivalent of 442 lbs of TNT on March 7 at 5:38 pm EST. The explosion was so powerful that it produced a shock wave that caused buildings to shake.

A Visa® gift card has a fixed amount of money attached to it when you purchase the card. It can't be refilled and you can't use it at ATMs. Other prepaid Visa cards have more flexible options, so it's useful to check which type of card you have. You can use either type of card to make purchases online or at brick-and-mortar stores that take Visa cards.
The easiest way to get money out of your Visa gift card is to simply use it at stores that accept Visa credit or debit cards to make purchases. If you're tired of carrying around an extra card on top of your existing debit or credit cards, you can make a priority of using it until the balance is all spent. You can also generally use the card online to make purchases or pay your regular bills, like utilities or even a mortgage payment, and you may be able to use it to send money with services like PayPal, though fees may apply.
You can often use the gift card in combination with another form of payment if you don't have enough on the card to fully complete a particular purchase. If you're unsure of the balance on the card, you can call the number on the back of the card or often check it online.
Withdrawing Money from an ATM
While Visa gift cards won't allow you to withdraw funds from an ATM, other types of prepaid Visa cards may. If you're unsure what rules apply to your card, check with the company that issued it by calling the number on the back, looking at any paperwork that came with the card or visiting its website.
If you are going to use a prepaid card at an ATM, you generally must have an associated PIN, similar to a traditional debit card. If you don't have a PIN or don't know it, call the company that issued the card or go online to change it. Some companies will let you set the PIN to one of your choice online or over the phone, while others will send you a computer-generated PIN in the mail. You can also use this PIN at some stores to make purchases, using the card in "debit" rather than "credit" mode.
Once you have your PIN and verified the card will work at an ATM, you may want to determine what fees are charged for using different ATMs. Some prepaid Visa cards have in-network ATMs that charge no fees or smaller fees, while you may incur larger fees to access your money through other ATMs.
Selling the Gift Card
If you have a Visa gift card that you're just not using it, consider selling it to someone else. You can often sell it to a friend or acquaintance. Online resellers will often buy other types of gift cards, such as ones tied to a certain store, though most don't deal in Visa, MasterCard® or similar cards.

I try to give my babe a fruit at every meal. So Maple Banana French Toast was born. Put that banana right in the batter and you’re good to go. Easy peasy. And what’s even easier is when you make some ahead of time and store them in the freezer. Nothing easier than microwaving a pre-made french toast for 45 seconds.
Adults, kids and babies as young as 6 months old doing baby-led weaning (click here for more info) love Maple Banana French Toast. It’s tasty enough for a holiday morning and easy enough for an everyday morning.
- 1 ripe banana
- 1 whole egg
- 1/4 cup milk of choice (cows, soy, rice, etc...)
- 1/8 teaspoon mapelene (maple extract)
- 4 slices cinnamon bread (we use Cinnabon brand)
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- In a medium-sized bowl, smash the banana with the back of the fork till mashed well.
- Add egg, milk and mapelene. Mix vigorously. Pour into a shallow dish.
- Coat the bread in the mixture (soak for as long as you can).
- Melt butter on griddle over medium-high heat.
- Place coated breads on griddle and cook until browned on both sides.
- If you don't have/can't find mapelene, vanilla extract will work (but it won't make it taste like you have syrup baked in or make your home smell like syrup for hours on end!)
- Babies doing baby-led weaning and kids will enjoy these cut into "fingers".

In less than an hour I’d landed into Gatwick, railed into London, settled into my hotel room and was indulging in a brief respite in my robe.
I’d checked into The Nadler Victoria on a Thursday evening after flying back from Venice and it was proving to be the perfect little post-airport stop.
The chic 73-room hotel is located a hop and a skip from the main train station, where the Gatwick Express pulls into, and it’s on the doorstep of Buckingham Palace if the royals are your thing.
I’d been given a king double room on the second floor, room 204.
After navigating the very dark corridors I used the electronic key card and got aquatinted with my nest for the night.
The room was a little on the small side for two people, but as they say, size isn’t everything and the place proved to be like the bento box of hotel rooms.
Around every corner there seemed to be a surprise and I spent a good while, like an excitable child, exploring the box-shaped area.
Behind the first cupboard next to the door I was surprised to find a dinky kitchen kitted out with all the essentials including a microwave, sink, kettle and fridge.
Plus there was cutlery, crockery and wine glasses.
There was nothing inside the fridge, but note inside the cooling unit informed me that room service items could be ordered 24/7 from reception.
In the next cupboard I discovered the safe and the iron but no board… hmmm the hunt for the ironing board was on.
After a brief snoop around – I probably should have just read the instruction manual – I found the ironing board perfectly positioned under the bed.
Other fun surprises included the table mats – which were fashioned out of a material from old car tyres – and finding a leather box with some handy plug converters in. The cherry on top was discovering two robes complete with towel slippers hung behind the bathroom door.
The bathroom was tight but well finished and stocked with sweet-smelling Gilchrist and Soames products.
We also commented that the roomy rain shower had a good pressure.
There was wifi free in the hotel but we had to follow some instructions on the TV and I found this too time consuming to bother.
After rolling back to our room after a party in South London it proved to be the perfect cocoon to unfurl in.
The bed was generously proportioned with soft quilting and a faux fur blanket which proved too warm to use.
Thanks to well-glazed windows there was little disturbance from the outside although the walls were quite thin with the cleaning cart and neighbours audible at times.
We were told that it’s usually possible to get breakfast served to your room at The Nadler but their usual provider was closed for the week.
Instead, the friendly receptionist from Spain directed us to one of the dozens of places near by. You really are spoiled for choice in Victoria, with options ranging from luxury to laid back.
Checking out of The Nadler was as efficient as checking in.
This bento box of hotels really is worth checking out.
It’s chic, efficient and with rooms starting at less than £200 it’s one of the more price-friendly picks for central London.
There are also three more city locations in The Nadler group worth investigating and one in Liverpool if you ever find yourself heading up north.
The Nadler Victoria is located at 10 Palace Pl, Westminster, London, SW1E 5BW

Behaviour of steel reinforcement in composite slabs at elevated temperatures
Wallace, Russell David
This thesis investigates the potential rupture of modern deformed steel reinforcement around the boundaries of composite or reinforced concrete slabs with continuity over perimeter supporting beams as tensile membrane action develops in fire scenarios. The potential for rupture of modern deformed reinforcement in these conditions is not known from previous research but it is critical to the integrity of reinforced concrete and composite floor structures in fire scenarios. The primary aim of this research is to determine whether modern deformed reinforcement will be more prone to rupture than plain round reinforcement at hogging cracks which form around the perimeter of a slab during the development of tensile membrane action in a fire scenario. Reinforcement bond has been experimentally investigated at elevated temperatures because bond is one of the main mechanisms which must be understood in order to understand the rupture of the reinforcement at crack locations. Pull-out tests have been conducted at temperatures up to approximately 600˚C on plain round and deformed reinforcement of different diameters. This temperature range is expected to cover the range of bond temperatures which are realistic or applicable from a structural fire design perspective. The response of bond at elevated temperatures has been characterised in terms of stress and slip. A modified local bond stress-slip model which is applicable at elevated temperatures has been developed. A finite element model has been developed to represent a region of reinforced concrete slab subject to flexural hogging with severe crack development. The purpose of the modelling is to investigate reinforcement behaviour and potential rupture when tensile membrane action develops at elevated temperatures. The model incorporates the stress-slip bond response from the results of the pull-out tests. It was found that slabs reinforced with deformed bars will perform similarly well to slabs reinforced with plain round bars in facilitating the cracking and rotation which occurs around the perimeter of a slab during the formation of tensile membrane action in a fire scenario. Increased slab depth was found to substantially reduce the ability of a slab to facilitate the cracking and rotation which occurs in this scenario. The effects of bar diameter and temperature were also investigated. It was found that the assumption of perfect bond, with no slip, was appropriately, and not excessively, conservative when modelling hogging reinforcement in this scenario. The implications of these research outcomes for reinforced concrete and composite slab design have been explained.

No-carrier-added (NCA), 109Cd radionuclide is a potential candidate towards radiopharmaceutical studies for both in vivo and in vitro applications and is also used in industrial and environmental studies. Herein, we have studied the adsorption and desorption characteristics of cadmium in both NCA and bulk concentrations into calcium alginate using radiochemical method. Various isotherms like Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin and Dubinin–Radushkevich have been studied and compared to match the adsorption phenomenon.

What We Do
The SDR plant utilizes a Waelz Kiln to reclaim zinc and other metals from EAF dust. While not a new technology, the Waelz Kiln process is the primary metals reclamation process that has proven economically sound for processing steel dust waste.
The Steel Dust Recycling plant consists of a conditioning, blending and pelletizing facility for the EAF dust to be processed, a Waelz Kiln for processing the steel dust, storage and loading facilities for products to be sold, and the latest environmental control systems. The facility is located on 66 acres near Millport, Alabama. The SDR site has direct access to four major rail carriers and is near multiple Interstate highways.
Developed in 1910, the Waelz Kiln is a proven technology for high-temperature metals recovery (HTMR) of EAF waste. The result is more highly concentrated zinc oxides which are used as raw materials for zinc smelters. While many other technologies have been successfully tested for processing steel dust, none have proven as economically feasible as the Waelz Kiln process, which remains the best demonstrated available technology for recycling steel dust.

WHEELING, W.Va. — West Virginia First District Congressman David McKinley said Friday all anyone wants to talk about in Washington is impeachment but he said he’s not hearing much discussion on the topic in his home district.
McKinley, during an appearance on MetroNews “Talkline,” said the U.S. House needs to consider whether they are using the impeachment proceedings involving President Donald Trump as a weapon,.
“Are we now taking impeachment into an area where we’re weaponizing it? I think we have to be very careful because then the next president is going to come in, whoever that president is, and then right off, like Obama. How many times did we hear that we’re going to impeach him?” McKinley said.
McKinley said over the first 200 years of his country there were only one person impeached and now Trump could be the third over the last 40 years.
“Let’s not use it as a political tool,” McKinley said.
A House committee conducted hours of public testimony this week. McKinley said he didn’t hear a lot new. He is cautioning the House not to be too quick heading down the road of an impeachment vote.
“Maybe they disagree with his techniques and his form, which is very questionable, but is it impeachable?”
McKinley said Congress needs to ask itself is was the conversation Trump had with the Ukrainian president impeachable?
“Or is it that you just don’t like the man’s policies,” McKinley said.

Today, after almost half a year since the release of the Huawei P20 Pro, was introduced a second smartphone with triple main camera. I’ll note that, first, I do not take into account Porsche Design Huawei Mate RS due to its premium and expense, and secondly, perhaps, there are some fierce Chinese with these cameras, but I do not know about them.
So, the second model with a triple primary camera of Oppo R17 Pro. As interesting it in the first place camera, we’ll start with, besides, there is a very ingenious system. In the configuration chamber comprises three sensors: primary 12 MP, with a variable aperture of F/1.5-F/2.4, as the flagships of Samsung (optical stabilization is present), 20-megapixel sensor with a telephoto lens and aperture F/2.6 and a 3D TOF sensor. The latter, if I understand correctly, the camera is not. It is a advanced sensor for analyzing the scene depth and estimate distance to objects. It needs how to improve the main camera, and used augmented reality apps. In General, if we talk about full triple chamber, while Huawei is still the only one who rolled this.
Below is a brief summary:
- Screen — 6.4 inch AMOLED resolution 2280 x 1080 pixels
- Platform — Snapdragon 710
- RAM — 8 GB
- Flash memory — 128 GB
- Frontalka — 25 MP
- Battery — 3700 mAh
Powered smartphone running Android 8.1 with a proprietary shell. The rest I point to the USB-C port, Bluetooth 5.0 and NFC module.
Special attention is given Super fast charging VOOC. In just 10 minutes you will receive 40% charge! The same technology is in Oppo Find X Lamborghini Edition, but he even in China worth $ 1,500. And R17 Pro valued at $ 620, and it’s really cool. Oh Yes, if you this is not enough, then there Podebrady fingerprint scanner. If anyone knows, earlier in the year Oppo R15 was one of the best selling smartphones in China. The novelty will clearly be even more popular.

Following a change in leadership early last month, Focus Features will be shutting down it’s London-based foreign sales office by year’s end.
Today’s announcement coincides with the start of Santa Monica’s American Film Market, which Focus Features International is in attendance of. The Hollywood Reporter’s Pamela McClintock writes:
Headed by Alison Thompson, Focus International will continue to sell international territories on existing titles at AFM, insiders say Wednesday. Going forward, Focus will leverage Universal’s international distribution network to distribute certain titles. Other movies will be handled by third-party sales agents. There were a total of 16 employees in London.
Universal and Schlessel already announced that Focus’ New York office is closing as Focus consolidates its operations in Los Angeles.

Still, the national TV did not give the news - so far - but surely, become very important in the coming days.
The protest was started by an organization of professional drivers - truckers -.
Historically, transport is controlled in Sicily - indirectly - by the Cosa Nostra and, one might think that this time there is the hand of the Mafia behind this event would not be the first time in the history of the Mafia, using protests, for any purpose their own.
All roads are blocked: petrol, food, all consumer goods, in practice, in Sicily, and travel by road, since the protest began 3 days ago, the goods are starting to finish in the first shops in a few days is that there will be nothing left to buy.
Police watch, without intervening, but what these people want?
They want someone to help them, the Sicilian economy is collapsing, not least the Italian economy, however, the protest could also expand to other regions of Southern Italy, and beyond ...
Unfortunately, in Italy, the welfare state has taught us that someone was helping us, that someone would give us subsidies, now that money is not there anymore, you can not understand why these subsidies do not keep coming, perhaps, because of money... there are no really!
