The Scottish Government has been urged to press ahead with a bill to ban multi-buy offers on junk food
Charities have urged the Scottish Government to deliver on plans to ban multi-buy offers on junk food.
A new poll for Cancer Research UK showed the majority of people in Scotland (80%) felt that price promotions, such as buy one get one free, made people more likely to stock up on products high in fat and sugar.
The YouGov poll also showed that more than seven in 10 (72%) of those who said that they are not currently a ‘healthy weight’ would find it ‘very’, or ‘quite’ difficult to reach a healthy weight.
In light of these new figures, Cancer Research UK says that legislation restricting junk food price promotions, previously paused due to the pandemic, must be brought back urgently to tackle obesity.
Being overweight or obese is the second biggest preventable cause of cancer in Scotland, after smoking, and is responsible for around 2,200 cases each year.
The charity’s cancer prevention expert Professor Linda Bauld, who is based at the University of Edinburgh, said: “The results of this new poll are cause for considerable concern.
“These figures suggest that people feel it’s difficult to maintain a healthy weight. Our unhealthy shopping environment is partly to blame for that.
“The Scottish Government has a significant role here, to protect the health of future generations by supporting people to choose healthier options in their weekly food shop.
“This month’s Programme for Government is an opportunity for the SNP to make good on its election promise to include legislation to restrict promotions on junk food. We strongly urge them to do this.”
The Scottish Government had previously committed to introduce its Bill on Restricting Foods Promotions in the 2020/2021 parliamentary year.
However, these plans were shelved in June 2020 due to the pandemic.
It was hoped that this bill would enable the restriction of price promotions of junk food, including multibuy offers such as buy one get one free. Promotions in prominent areas like the end of supermarket aisles and checkouts would also have been restricted.
Professor Bauld added: “We know that supermarket cut price and multi-buy offers are a big influence on what we buy, encouraging people to stock up on high calorie food with no nutritional value. Once it’s stacked up in our kitchens, it’s easy to keep reaching for it.
“It’s time for the Scottish Government to once again forge ahead with this legislation which would do a great deal to improve the nation’s health.
“Any hold up in introducing these measures will be at the expense of our nation’s life chances, as well as adding to the ever-growing burden on the NHS.”
Evidence shows that people who live in more deprived areas in Scotland are more likely to be overweight or obese.**
One organisation attempting to tackle this is Ruchazie Pantry, a social enterprise that aims to provide affordable, good quality, healthy food to local people in the north east of Glasgow. Anyone can use the pantry by paying £2.50 on their visit, and in exchange they get £10 to £15 worth of food which they choose from the pantry.
In Ruchazie, levels of deprivation are considerably higher than the Glasgow average, with 41% of children living in poverty. Obesity levels among primary 1 children in the area are also a third higher than the Glasgow average.
Ruchazie Pantry was the first of its kind in Glasgow. It is now part of a group of seven pantries across the city, coordinated by the Scottish Food Pantry Network.
Scottish Pantry Network co-founder Councillor Mandy Morgan said: “Helping families make healthy choices is at the heart of our mission to tackle food poverty.
“By offering fresh food for an affordable price, the pantry offers a sustainable alternative to the junk food deals which fill supermarket shelves but don’t fill our bodies with the essentials we need.
“Everyone should be able to access quality food, no matter where they live or how much money they have. Our pantries offer that option for some of the most deprived communities in Glasgow, but we want to start a wider conversation about the affordability of food and how that influences the choices we make in our diets.
“We believe action from government is needed to tackle food insecurity and promote healthy choices, which is why we are backing calls to ban price promotions on junk food and help more people across Scotland access good quality food.”

My plane addition is in full swing. I was looking at scrub planes and jack planes and eventually want to get a Stanley No. 7 joiner plane as well. But watching a lot of Paul Sellers videos and he’s a huge fan of the No. 4 for just doing about anything. And I’m a big fan of his. He keeps two No. 4’s to hand. One set up like a normal smoother, and one with a cambered blade, chip breaker set back, and a wide open mouth. He basically uses this as a scrub plane for removing lots of material and getting boards down to thickness. I actually had a short conversation with him via his blog comments and he said he’d soon be putting out a video on exactly this subject.
Well, I was able to pick up a second No. 4 for a whole lot less than it would cost me to get a similar quality scrub, so eBay got some more of my business. Just took it out of the box, and here’s what we have to work with:
It’s pretty gunked up, but on closer inspection, I think a good cleaning alone will have this baby looking pretty sweet. Everything turns and moves pretty smoothly, none of the screws gave me a hard time. Not really a whole lot of rust or corrosion and no serious pitting at all that I can see on initial inspection. I suspect that this might end up being in even better condition that my first No. 4. It’s also got the screw in the back for adjusting the frog position, which my current one lacks. With my first one, you have to loosen up the frog holding screws and move the frog by hand. The screw isn’t missing, just a different design I guess.
So this may become my dedicated smoothing No. 4 and I’ll see about doing the Sellers conversion on the other one. But I’ll have to give this a good cleaning before I make any commitments. Progress reports to come.

How to reflect corporate culture through clothing, the answer is of course a uniform logo. A logo that conforms to the company’s image is a manifestation of the company’s strength and also makes the team more cohesive. So, can the logo be embroidered on the jacket? Suzhou Jackets are made to order. The editor of Sheng Qiaoyi tells you that logos can be embroidered on Jackets.
Color embroidery generally refers to the embroidery memory that uses various colored embroidery threads to control patterns. It has the characteristics of embroidered plain clothes, rich stitches, fine stitches, and bright colors. It has many applications in clothing production. Color embroidery is also very rich in color changes. It uses thread to substitute, and through the overlap, juxtaposition, and interlacing of multiple colored embroidery threads, it produces gorgeous color effects. In particular, the use of trocar stitches to express the subtle changes in pattern colors is the most distinctive, and the color depths are blended, which has the rendering effect of Chinese painting.
Cut embroidery, also known as hollow embroidery, is an embroidery method with a certain degree of difficulty and unique effects. Its biggest feature is that in the embroidery process, holes are trimmed according to the pattern needs, and a variety of pattern combinations are embroidered in the cut holes in different ways, so that the embroidery surface has both free and easy field flowers and exquisite flowers. Beautiful hollow flower, contrasting reality and fiction, full of fun. The embroidery is elegant and delicate.
Appliqué embroidery is also called patch embroidery, which is a form of embroidery in which other fabrics are cut and stitched onto clothing. The patch embroidery in Chinese Su embroidery also belongs to this category. Its embroidering method is to cut the applique cloth according to the pattern requirements and stick it on the embroidery surface. You can also put cotton and other things between the applique cloth and the embroidery surface to make the pattern swell and have a three-dimensional effect. After it is pasted, use various stitches to lock the edges. The appliqué embroidery method is simple, the pattern is mainly block surface, and the style is chic and generous.
Embroidered logos on jackets are necessary for the following 4 reasons:
1. It can improve corporate cohesion
2. It can establish a corporate image
3. Can create a unique corporate culture
4. Can regulate employee behavior

Governor of Sokoto state, Ahmad Aliyu has disguised himself s a commercial tricycle driver and visited the state’s Specialist Hospital to ascertain the quality of services provided to residents.
This was made known by the Governor’s spokesperson, Abubakar Bawa in a statement on Monday, June 19, 2023.
Aliyu decided to visit the facility unannounced following a series of concerns raised by Sokoto residents over poor service delivery.
He went to the hospital as a keke napep driver seeking medical attention only to meet dilapidated structures, erratic power supply, shortage of staff and lack of functional medical equipment.
The governor said he was surprised by what he saw because patients were subjected to harzadous situations
He said; “I was surprised with what I saw during my visit to the hospital, which lasted for four hours; it afforded me the opportunity to see things for myself. Patients and their relatives are subjected to all kinds of hazardous situations owing to the dirty environment and lack of functional equipment in the medical facility.
“Patient relatives rely solely on their personal alternative source of power due to the erratic electricity supply in the hospital. Therefore, I have directed the management of the hospital to see me for further discussion on how to remedy the situation.”
Aliyu noted that he never knew that the Sokoto Specialist hospital was in such a terrible state.

Patient Perceptions of Three Substance Use Screening Tools for Use During Pregnancy
2022 Apr 24
Trocin, K.E.; Oga, E.A.; Mulatya, C.; Mark, K.S.; Coleman-Cowger, V.H.
Matern Child Health J
Female Humans; Mass Screening/methods; Pregnancy; Pregnancy Complications/diagnosis Pregnant Women/psychology Prenatal Care; Qualitative research; screening; Substance use; Substance-Related Disorders/diagnosis
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to understand pregnant women's perceptions of three validated substance use screening tools and identify a preferred tool for use during pregnancy. The three screening tools studied included the 4P's Plus, the NIDA Quick Screen/ NIDA-Modified Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test, and the Substance Use Risk Profile-Pregnancy Scale.METHODS: A total of 493 cognitive interviews were completed with a diverse sample of pregnant women presenting to two obstetrics practices in Baltimore, MD from January 2017 to January 2018. This study served as a qualitative companion to a larger study comparing the accuracy and acceptability of substance use screening tools in prenatal care. After completing each screening tool, participants were asked their perceptions of the tool and to choose their preferred tool. Interviews were recorded, transcribed verbatim, coded, and analyzed using NVivo software.RESULTS: The plurality of participants (43.4%) reported they preferred the 4P's Plus. Fewer participants preferred the NIDA Quick Screen (32.5%) and the SURP-P (24.1%). Participants felt that the 4P's Plus was both comprehensive and concise. While many participants felt that disclosure of substance use would vary by individual, participants also suggested that when screening is confidential, includes questions about a patient's background, and administered by a non-judgmental provider, pregnant people may be more likely to answer honestly.CONCLUSIONS FOR PRACTICE: The 4P's Plus is a promising and acceptable substance use screening tool for use in prenatal care. Clinicians can use several methods to increase acceptability of substance use screening and encourage disclosure of prenatal substance use.

Josh Norman‘s first year in Buffalo went reasonably well, but his entire season of work will likely be remembered by fans for the one play he’d probably like to forget: Being the victim of a vicious, highlight-for-the-ages Derrick Henry stiff arm. Henry discussed the play back in October, and now, months later, Norman has commented on the infamous moment as well, “I’m not shying away from no one. I want to make that very clear, very, very clear. That’s just the type of entertainment (fans) just want to see. But to actually go out there and do that? Man, they going to scurry and tuck they tail and go hide somewhere. They ain’t trying to do that.” Norman is right. No one in their right mind is signing up for that.
Which brings us to today’s quiz of the day. The stiff arm was just one of many jaw-dropping runs for Henry in 2020, a year in which he ran for over 2,000 yards and set the Titans franchise record for most rushing yards in a season. So with that in mind, how many of the players responsible for the best rushing season in the history of each NFL franchise can you name in five minutes?

The Arc Invited to Meeting at White House on the R-word
The Arc of the United States has been invited to attend a meeting at the White House to discuss the recent controversy surrounding the Chief of Staff's use of the r-word. Peter V. Berns, Chief Executive Officer, of The Arc will be attending along with other disability advocates and self-advocates, including: Andy Imparato, American Association of People with Disabilities; Hannah Jacobs, parent; Julie Petty, self-advocate; Tim Shriver, Special Olympics; and Ricardo Thornton, self-advocate.
The Arc Asks for Apology and for Support of Rosa's Law
The following is the text of a letter emailed to White House Chief of Staff on January 28, 2010:
January 28, 2010
Mr. Rahm Emanuel
Chief of Staff
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW
Washington, D.C. 20050
Dear Mr. Emanuel:
It was deeply distressing to read news reports of your use of an epithet relating to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Constituents of The Arc of the United States (The Arc), the nation’s oldest and largest organization promoting and protecting the human rights of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families, are justifiably upset by the insensitivity to their struggle revealed by the use of this derogatory language.
This recent verbal miscue echoes President Obama’s unfortunate statement last year, on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, equating his poor bowling performance with that of people with intellectual disabilities. As disability rights advocates, we expected more from this Administration and presumed that the appointment of a Special Assistant to the President for Disability Policy was an assurance that the needs and concerns of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities would be understood and solidly represented.
Statements such as these emanating from the highest levels of government only intensify pervading societal attitudes that people with intellectual disabilities somehow don’t measure up—that their lives are worth less.
The more than seven million Americans with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families deserve a public apology for words that are the moral equivalent of hate speech. This language is disrespectful and demeaning and further undermines the struggle for empowerment that this constituency faces on all fronts: employment, education, housing, and inclusion in every aspect of society.
The Arc of the United States strongly supports legislation (S.2781) introduced by Sen. Barbara Mikulski of Maryland that would change the term “mental retardation” or “mentally retarded” to “intellectual disabilities” in several federal statutes such as education and employment laws. As advocates for people with intellectual disabilities, we are waging a battle to change hearts and minds and ensure that our constituency enjoys full inclusion and participation in the community. The Arc hopes that the Obama Administration will offer vigorous support for this legislation, which if enacted will be a step forward in achieving these goals.
Thank you in advance for your consideration; we look forward to hearing from you.
Peter V. Berns
Chief Executive Officer

BorgWarner supplies its latest wet friction technology for ZF’s new 8- and 9-speed automatic transmissions.
The 8-speed transmission features BorgWarner’s multi-segment friction plates with intricate groove designs, and the torque converter for the 9-speed transmission utilizes a piston plate with BorgWarner proprietary friction material. For several years, BorgWarner has manufactured friction plates in Heidelberg, Germany, supporting ZF’s production of 8-speed transmissions in Germany. Friction technologies for both transmissions are now also produced at BorgWarner’s plant in Bellwood, Illinois, locally supporting ZF’s manufacturing facilities in South Carolina and Mexico.
“With 60 years of experience in wet friction technology, BorgWarner continues to lead the market in creating sophisticated designs and leading-edge friction materials,” said Robin Kendrick, President and General Manager, BorgWarner Transmission Systems. “Our advanced processing capabilities allow unmatched design flexibility for outstanding performance while optimizing material utilization for lower cost. We are pleased to expand our long relationship with ZF with localized production in North America.”
For ZF’s 8-speed transmission, BorgWarner’s multi-segment wet friction plate technology features full-depth grooves between segments of friction material to increase oil flow, improve cooling and prolong clutch life. Using advanced production techniques, grooves can be molded and/or cut into the friction material to disperse heat during engagement, reduce drag and improve shift feel. Fuel economy is also improved by reductions in spin loss. Unlike traditional manufacturing techniques that cut a full ring of friction material, BorgWarner’s multi-segment process uses smaller sections to significantly reduce material waste.
For the torque converter with ZF’s 9-speed transmission, BorgWarner’s industry leading friction material delivers increased power density and thermal capacity for superior launch control. The proprietary materials reduce drag and resist extreme heat to enhance shift feel with significantly less noise, vibration and harshness (NVH).


WINDHAM, June 20 – Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry talked about the economy, health care, and energy policy to audiences in New Hampshire Thursday as he was heavily attacked for misinterpreted comments from the previous night that fueled his critics all day.
On the second day of a two day trip to New Hampshire Kerry found himself explaining comments from an event in Lebanon Wednesday where he said he and the American people were misled to believe that war in Iraq was necessary because the country was producing nuclear weapons.
Many were led to believe that Kerry had said that the country was misled in terms of all forms of mass destruction, including nuclear, biological, and chemical.
Because of this state and national Republicans leaders said this was hypocritical of Kerry because just on Sunday he was on television saying it was “irresponsible” to suggest the entire reason for going to war was based on White House lies.
But in fact, Kerry said Thursday he was misled only by the information on nuclear weapons, but that it’s too soon to assess if the country was also duped in regards to chemical or biological weapons.
The Associated Press story that reported his comments in Lebanon is consistent with what Kerry said on Thursday.
“There should be a full investigation of our pre-war intelligence if we don’t find anything,” Kerry said. “But there was nothing new in what I said. It was the same-old, same-old.”
It was Kerry, of course, who voted to authorize the use of force in Iraq, but when asked if he could vote today given the fact he has been misled, Kerry said it wouldn’t be possible to answer that question now, but that he is glad Saddam Hussein is out of power.
While the press cared about the “misled” statement the night before no one at the two biggest events of the day no audience member even appeared to know about it. Questions at the Concord Chamber of Commerce and at a house party in Windham were all about his campaign or his political feelings.
“The only person that deserves to be laid off is President Bush,” Kerry continued.
He explained how he wants to repeal the recently passed tax cut for the top two income brackets as well as end offshore tax loopholes. Instead he wants to have a payroll tax holiday for a year giving each person an extra $750 and restore what he called “fundamental fairness” in the tax code.

（Ἀντίφιλος). A Greek painter born in Egypt in the latter half of the fourth century B.C., a contemporary and rival of Apelles; he probably spent the last part of his life at the court of the first Ptolemy. The ancients praise the lightness and dexterity with which he handled subjects of high art, as well as scenes in daily life. Two of his pictures in the latter kind were especially famous, one of a boy blowing a fire, and another of women dressing wool. From his having painted a man named Gryllus (pig) with playful allusions to the sitter's name, caricatures in general came to be called grylli (Pliny , Pliny H. N. xxxv. 114, 138).
Antiphilus was an ancient Greek painter from Naucratis, Egypt, in the age of Alexander the Great. He worked for Philip II of Macedon and Ptolemy I of Egypt. Thus he was a contemporary of Apelles, whose rival he is said to have been, but he seems to have worked in quite another style. Quintilian speaks of his facility: the descriptions of his works which have come down to us show that he excelled in light and shade, in genre representations, and in caricature.
Paintings of Antiphilus on display in ancient Rome
In ancient Rome, according to Pliny the Elder, the Schola Octaviae was ornamented by paintings by Antiphilus, among which were his Hesione and his painting of the group of Alexander and Philip with Minerva. The Curia Pompeii, famous as the place of assassination of Julius Caesar, was of the form called an exedra, or hall furnished with seats, and was decorated with pictures of Cadmus and Europa by Antiphilus.

While we do now know that we won’t be leaving the EU today (the 29th March), there is still plenty of uncertainty over when and how Brexit will happen. Whether it happens on the 12th April, 22nd May or some other date in the future, what we are sure of is that when the United Kingdom leaves the European Union, there is no doubt that it will have some impact on travel between the UK and EU.
A time has gone on there has been some clarification from the government on some aspects of travel after Brexit.
We wanted to reassure Free Spirit customers about what we now know. Forearmed with knowledge and preparations, these do not need to have a large impact on your trip.
Please note that all of the following information is correct on the date of publish and sourced from the UK government website.
A no-deal scenario will not impact flights to and from the EU. Both the European Commission and the UK government have offered assurances that UK and EU airlines will still be able to operate flights with no changes until at least December 2020.
Also, for direct flights to and from the UK airport security procedures will not change.
Ferries and Cruise Ships
The majority of rules that ferry services and cruises must adhere to are international, meaning that they will not be affected in the case of a no-deal Brexit.
The UK and EU governments are working to ensure that coach and tour holidays can continue as before. However, this is still uncertain. If they do continue unaffected, one thing to bear in mind is the chance of inconvenience at ferry ports, where delays may occur due to changes in customs processing and border controls. Having said that, some of the larger ports continue to make preparations to minimise disruption as much as possible.
Even in the case of no deal, travel on Eurostar and Eurotunnel will continue as normal.
However, the best policy is to check with the operator or travel company prior to travel. They will be able to advise if there is any additional information travellers need to be aware of.
When we travel to Europe after Brexit, some rules will change when crossing the EU border. It may be necessary to:
- show a return or onward ticket
- prove that you have enough money for the duration of your stay
- use a different lane when queuing for border checks.
For short trips to the EU, Iceland, Liechtenstien, Norway or Switzerland there should be no changes that require visas for short trips. This applies to trips under 90 days in any 180 day period.
Trips to Ireland will not change regardless of how the UK leaves the EU.
If Brexit does go ahead, it is best to err on the side of caution when it comes to renewing your passport. The UK government recommends you ensure a minimum of 6 months remaining from the date you arrive at your destination. This means that you should renew if:
- It has less than 6 moths left, or
- It is more than 9months and 6 months old.
It is best to plan ahead and give it a month for passport applications to be processed.
This is one area where leaving the European Union with no deal then there will be significant changes. The existing pet passport scheme would no longer be available. As a result a different process will have to be followed, which can take 4 months to complete. Find out more on the government website.
Driving in the EU
If there is a deal in place after Brexit, the same guidelines apply as before – it is sufficient to take your driving licence and V5C (log book).
However, if no deal is in place, additional preparations will have to be made if you intend to drive your car in the EU, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland. Additional documents will be required:
- A ‘green card’, which you will have to apply for from your car insurance company. The time taken to obtain this will vary depending on your provider. However, it is best to allow 1 month for this to arrive.
- A GB sticker for your car, even if this is marked clearly on your licence plate.
- An international Driving Permit (IDP) – these cost £5.50 and you can get them over the counter at participating Post Offices. To apply you will need your full UK driving licence, together with your passport if it is the paper version, and a passport sized photo.
It is worth bearing in mind that there is still much to be decided. However, with assurances from the government of many aspects of travel, this information is as reliable as possible. We will be following developments as they happen and you can too by keeping an eye on the Government’s dedicated page.

One of the many attractions of the island of Tenerife is the number of charming villages here, especially in the north, where there is a much more welcoming climate for strolling through the streets and where nature and beauty are present in each corner. The southern area also hosts some charming villages, but some of its areas are particularly overcrowded by tourism and it is not so easy to mingle with the people and customs.
If you like to walk and know the culture of the places you visit and the direct contact with the locals, then the villages in the North of Tenerife are the perfect place, in addition to its undeniable beauty. These are some of the charming villages that we encourage you to visit on your way through the north of Tenerife.
The municipality adjacent to Puerto de la Cruz in which you can stroll along cobblestone streets. A very beautiful town where you can get to know the festivities if you visit the village on the dates when their festivals are celebrated: the famous tapestries and carpets of La Orotava, a beautiful celebration you cannot miss. Also the “Baile de Magos” and the “Romería” at the end of may. La Orotava is abundant in religious buildings such as the Church of the Conception and the Church and Convent of San Agustin, of great beauty. Very close to Puerto de la Cruz and our Apartments Ambassador. If you want more information about La Orotava you can lok it up in the post we wrote about this beautiful town.
El Sauzal is one of those charming villages where, if you get lost in its streets, you will feel incredibly well, as if every day was peaceful and festive. It has several famous viewpoints from which you can make out stunning views. And the area of the Terrazas del Sauzal, famous for its breakfasts and spectacular views. You’ll be pervaded by a sense of wellbeing walking through its beautiful streets, with quiet people, a town where you can relax and enjoy the most pleasant walks on the island. It is more than worth the visit to this village in northern Tenerife midway between Santa Cruz and Puerto de la Cruz.
Icod de Los Vinos
Famous for its Drago Milenario (the oldest of the world) which rests on his grounds, it was declared National Monument for a century and nearby you will also find numerous plant species, a volcanic cave and picnic areas. The Drago Milenario which is in Icod de Los Vinos is estimated to be over a thousand years old. But Icod de Los Vinos is not only worth visiting for its Millennial Drago but also for the beauty of the streets, which as usual is also sheltered by prominent religious buildings. But especially for a world famous the Cueva del Viento, which is the largest volcanic cavity of Europe and the third largest of the world, part of which you can visit accompanied by their guides of the Visitor Center. A real worthwhile adventure. We recommend that you get deep in the bowels of this charming village, as well as through the subterranean worlds to live an underground adventure. For more information about Icod de Los Vinos, you should read the full post that we publicated of this charming town on our blog.
Another municipality also close to Puerto de la Cruz and therefore also near the Ambassador Apartments, that stands for nature and the quiet life enjoyed in the streets. Like Icod de Los Vinos it also the Dragos as his trademark, but in this case for the large number of them, two of which are called the twins dragon trees, two similar specimens which are positioned side by side in the vicinity of the Church of Our Lady of Conception.
In addition Los Realejos is a must for lovers of natural beaches and especially for lovers of surfing and bodyboarding, since in this municipality you can find the beach of El Socorro. A perfect beach for practicing these sports up to the point that on many occasions it has hosted international competitions of these sports specialties. You can learn even more about Los Realejos in our post with all the information of this charming village in northern Tenerife.
La Victoria de Acentejo
A town whose name comes from one of the final battles between the aboriginals and the Spanish colonizers, which took place in the region. If you want to know more about the history of this battle we recommend you to visit the post where we talk further about La Victoria de Acentejo, a charming village also located in northern Tenerife with approximately 9.000 inhabitants, a long artisan tradition and where numerous festivals are celebrated throughout the year.
You want to know more charming villages in Tenerife?
These are just some of the charming villages located in the north of Tenerife that you will find on your visit to the island. We hope you decide to stay in the Puerto de la Cruz, specifically in the Ambassador Apartments, where we will be happy to advise you on the best places and times to discover the customs, people and traditions of these peoples.
We are preparing new articles so that you can know more about other towns in this beautiful North of Tenerife and can have a detailed guide and an idea about what you can find in each place. We’re looking forward to your visit!!!

But alas, all good things must come to an end, and Wolfdog is now out as Old Spice’s director of marketing and you can see his resignation clip above.

Like it or not, the Hong Kong Phooey movie is moving forward. Based on the Hanna-Barbera cartoon TV series, the new movie will combine live-action with animation.
Eddie Murphy has been announced as the voice of the title character. He’ll follow in the footsteps of another African-American comic actor, Scatman Crothers. He voiced bungling Hong Kong Phooey in the 16 episode animated series back in 1974.
The two performers also share a connection in that they both worked with Redd Foxx. Crothers appeared on Foxx’s Sanford & Son and Murphy has said that he idolized Foxx. Murphy also directed and acted with Foxx in the Harlem Nights feature film. Crothers died in 1986 at the age of 76.
Here’s the press release:

Cynthia Montgomery testified that she arranged a $15,000 flight to Sao Paulo at the request of Marc Schaffel, who is named by prosecutors as one of the unindicted co-conspirators in the Jackson case.
Prosecutors contend Jackson's associates planned to keep the family in Brazil indefinitely in the aftermath of the Feb. 6, 2003, airing of the TV documentary "Living With Michael Jackson." Jackson appeared with his accuser in the documentary and said he allowed children to sleep in his bed, although he asserted it was non-sexual.
Montgomery was granted immunity because the FBI is investigating her in relation to the secret videotaping of Jackson and former attorney Mark Geragos during a charter jet flight she booked. The charter flight brought Jackson from Las Vegas to Santa Barbara where he surrendered to authorities on child molestation charges.
Montgomery said she booked the accuser's family on a flight scheduled to depart for Brazil on March 1, 2003.
She said Schaffel asked her to book a one-way trip but she had to arrange a round-trip flight because Americans are not allowed to enter Brazil with one-way tickets. She said she arbitrarily chose a return date.
The family never made the flight and prosecutors did not discuss the reason why in court.
The accuser's mother has testified that she orchestrated her family's escape from Jackson's associates by claiming her children had to visit their grandparents before they could leave for Brazil. The mother has said the family left Jackson's Neverland estate for the last time on March 12, 2003.
On cross-examination, defense attorney Thomas Mesereau Jr. immediately noted that Montgomery was testifying under immunity granted by Superior Court Judge Rodney S. Melville.
The travel agent's testimony came a day after Mesereau announced that one member of the defense team, Brian Oxman, was no longer on the case. No explanation was given.
Oxman, a long-time Jackson family lawyer, is the fourth attorney to part ways with Jackson since the singer was charged in 2003. Jacksonwith Mesereau and Susan Yu a year ago. In October, Jackson announced that longtime attorney Steve Cochran was taking a temporary leave.
"The attorney scuffle is a sign, yet another sign, that Jackson has terrible difficulty handling the people around him," says.
Also Monday, Melville ruled the pop star's ex-wife, Debbie Rowe, can testify as a prosecution witness, but her testimony may be restricted, especially certain areas the defense claims would "open a can of worms" that could greatly prolong the trial, reports CBS News Correspondent Vince Gonzales.
"There's no telling what she could blurt out in front of the jury," says CBS News Consultant J. Randy Taraborrelli, a Jackson biographer.
Rowe is locked in a legal fight with Jackson over custody of their two children, Paris and Prince Michael.
Prosecutors claim she took part in the so-called rebuttal video that aired on television, after she was told she would have access to the children.
Jackson, 46, is accused of molesting a 13-year-old boy in February or March 2003, giving the boy alcohol and conspiring to hold the boy's family captive to get them to rebut the documentary

While it is pertinent to share news about The Fairer Private Rented Sector White Paper, our Prime Minister resigned less than three weeks after the Government released the definitive document.
The sudden departure – and the ensuing change of leadership – has set tongues wagging about proposed changes to the private rental sector and the wider property industry. In his final hours, Boris Johnson witnessed the resignation of Housing Minister Stuart Andrew and he sacked the incumbent head of the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC), Michael Gove. MP Greg Clark was quickly installed as the new DLUHC leader, while the new housing minister was announced as Marcus Jones.
What does yet another Government reshuffle mean for buyers, sellers, tenants and landlords in London? The industry expects its trade bodies and associations, including Propertymark and the Home Builders’ Federation, to put pressure on Greg Clark to re-examine recent decisions and reset house building targets.
The implementation of The Fairer Private Rented Sector White Paper may also be delayed. The document was led by outgoing Michael Gove, with support from Boris Johnson, and it’s not known yet whether Greg Clark shares the same views as his predecessor.
Aspire doesn’t expect any immediate changes to the way the property sector is governed, especially as the UK parliament is very close to its summer recess. Instead, it’s firmly a case of ‘business as usual’, so get in touch if you’re ready to progress your selling or letting plans. We’ll monitor the situation and bring you updates as they happen.

Both carbon steel pipe and stainless steel pipe are popular for a wide variety of applications. They are both made with carbon, iron and some other elements. But they have different features, for example, appearance, corrosion resistance, service life, price, etc. Below let’s review the main differences between them.
Carbon steel pipe uses carbon steel as raw material, which is mainly made of iron and 0.12-2.00 percent carbon. While stainless steel tube uses stainless steel as base material, which contains iron, carbon, and at least 10.5% chromium content.
2. Anti-corrosion Properties
Stainless steel contains a large amount of chromium. Chromium reacts with oxygen and then forms a passive layer to protect the steel from corrosion. While carbon steel pipe will rust easily. But carbon steel is known for its strength and ability to withstand very high temperatures. You can choose suitable tubes according to the use environment and the expected service life.
Comparatively speaking, carbon steel pipes are more affordable than stainless steel pipes. But SS tubes are more long-lasting and corrosion resistant. In the long term, SS tubes will be more cost-effective. You can choose according to your budget and the use environment.
In terms of appearance, stainless steel tube has a very shiny surface. It retains its luster even when exposed to weather and other elements. Carbon steel pipe is darker in color and has a matte appearance. If carbon pipe is exposed to harsh environments, it will deteriorate in appearance with corrosion.
Which One Is Better, Carbon Steel or Stainless Steel Pipe?
If you are torn between choosing carbon or stainless steel pipe, you can ask yourself the following questions.
1. Are Your Pipes Used At Extreme Temperatures?
Carbon steel pipe can withstand high temperatures and is suitable for use in steam pipes and other applications. However, if your project is in an extremely cold environment, carbon steel pipe will be not an ideal choice. You can choose 304 stainless steel pipe, which is resistant to low temperatures up to -196 degrees Celsius. While SS tube can also withstand high temperatures. Therefore, it is also widely used in kitchen items.
2. Do You Want to Use the Steel Pipe in the Food Industry?
If your project is related to the food industry, stainless steel pipes will be more recommended. The reaction of carbon steel with food can change its taste or may cause health problems. While stainless steel pipes are found everywhere in the food industry and do not affect human health.
3. Will the Steel Pipes Be Used in Corrosive Environment?
Corrosion will greatly influence the service life of your pipeline. In corrosive environments, such as chemical industry, marine, humid surroundings, stainless steel tubes or galvanized steel tubes will be more durable to use and also easier to maintain.
4. How About Your Budget?
Carbon steel pipe is a low cost and affordable option. If you have a tight budget, then carbon steel pipe may be a good choice. But stainless steel tubes are durable to use. In the long term, SS pipes are more cost-effective. So please remember, do not rely on the price only. Welcome to contact us for more professional tips.

Trixe Mattel’s new series puts a Palm Spring Motel on the line
It’s a made-for-TV motel makeover.
The Palm Sprints Desert Sun reports that “RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars” winner Trixie Mattel has documented her purchase and renovation of a Palm Springs motel for her new “Trixie Motel” limited series.
Mattel, Brian Michael Firkus’ drag alter ego, has teamed up with partner David Silver to buy the Ruby Montana Coral Sands Inn, whose four-month revival as “Trixie Motel” will span eight episodes of Discovery+ series airs June 3.
“When I first walked into the dark, dingy motel, I was disgusted, horrified, and just wanted to bring a match to the place,” Mattel said in a statement. “But then I thought about how a little paint and glitter can turn a 32-year-old bald man from Wisconsin into a Hollywood darling, and I knew that with our talented team and strategic reconstructive surgery, we could turn this dump into a dazzling one.”
Mattel says she bought the motel for $2 million, then invested an additional $500,000 to renovate the grounds and create seven themed rooms that the drag superstar says are “100% Trixie Mattel.”
On the show, Mattel is visited by friends including “New Girl” star Zooey Deschanel, “Vanderpump Rules” Lisa Vanderpump, comedian Nicole Byer, “Property Brothers” star Jonathan Scott, actor Leslie Jordan and drag queen collaborator Katya. Mattel and Silver are also getting help from fashion and interior designer Dani Dazey and Palm Springs project manager David Rios.
Mattel, who bases her character on Barbie dolls and other Mattel toys she loved growing up, was the winner of “RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars” in its third season in 2018. She previously competed in the seventh season of ” RuPaul’s Drag Race” in 2015.
Mattel has also starred in the World of Wonder web series “UNHhhh” since 2016, as well as the Viceland spin-off “The Trixie & Katya Show” and the Netflix web series “I Like to Watch”, both with a another drag queen. and his collaborator Katya Zamolodchikova.

|Artist||Senex, John after Cellarius, Christophorus|
|Published||[Londini, Sumptibus S. Ballard, J. Senex, G. Innys, J. Osborn, & T. Longman, MDCCXXXI [London, 1731]]|
|Dimensions||165 x 240 mm|
A detailed map of the Spanish peninsula as known to classical geographers, most likely engraved by Senex for his 1731 edition of Geographia Antiqua, an atlas of Cellarius' work on classical geography. The map shows the ancient peoples, tribes, and Roman administrative divisions of the Spanish peninsula, as well as key Roman towns. The Balearic islands and the Africa side of the Straits of Gibraltar are also shown.
Christoph Keller (1638-1707), usually known as Cellarius, was a classical scholar and geographer, most famous for popularizing the division of European history into the ancient, medieval, and modern eras that are still in use today. His Historia Universalis was one of the most popular historical works of the eighteenth century, being republished and translated numerous times both during and after the author's lifetime, often with the addition of maps.
John Senex (fl.1690-1740) was a British engraver, publisher, surveyor, and geographer to Queen Anne. Working with James Maxwell and Charles Price early in the 18th century, he produced some admirable maps of the world and continents including loose maps of many countries. In 1719 he issued a miniature, updated edition of Ogilby's 'Britannia'. This publication went through many editions and was inspired by the great interest he seemed to show in road maps.
Condition: Vertical folds as issued. Minor time toning to edges of sheet. Blank on verso.
