|ABSA 2010: Visser/Badenhorst stay top of Production Car Championship.|
Damage control at the Sun City 400, round four of the Absa Off Road Championship, has kept privateer Chris Visser and Japie Badenhorst at the top of the Production Vehicle leaderboard.
Visser and Badenhorst, in the RFS Toyota Hilux, rolled during the Donaldson Prologue at Sun City and were forced to start from the back of the field. A spirited fight back saw them finish seventh overall with the pair earning enough points to eke out a 13 point championship lead.
Behind Visser and Badenhorst a dogfight is developing. Reigning drivers’ champion Duncan Vos and Rob Howie (Team Castrol Toyota Hilux) are just one point ahead of Hannes Grobler/Hennie ter Stege (RFS BMW), who picked up their first non finish of the year at Sun City, and the Ford Racing pair of Neil Woolridge and Kenny Skjoldhammer.
Sun City winners Terence Marsh and Buks Carolin rocker from 12th to fourth in the championship in the Regent Racing Nissan Navara and are only another five points adrift. Also still in the championship frame are Gary Bertholdt and Andre Vermeulen (Atlas Copco Toyota Hilux) and the ultra consistent Mike Whitehouse/Matthew Carlson (Regent Racing Nissan Navara) who are locked together in fifth place.
Differences in points allocations for overall and class results see a slightly different state of affairs in the premier SP Class. Here the top three positions remain the same with Whitehouse/Carlson, the only team with a 100 percent finish record, in fourth place ahead of Marsh and Carolin.
Reigning champions Dewald van Breda and Johann du Toit, in the Northam Toyota Hilux, have a tight hold on Class D. A win at Sun City in their first outing of the season lifted Deon Venter and Ian Palmer, in the 4x4 Mega World Toyota Hilux, into second place.
Down in Class E a second win of the season has lifted teenager Lance Woolridge and Ward Huxtable, in the factory Ford Racing Ranger, into a comfortable lead. Woolridge, the son of Neil, and Huxtable now have a 16 point lead over Pikkie Labuschagne and Rikus Erasmus in the 4x4 Mega World Toyota Hilux.
The Ruwacon Racing Ford Ranger pair of Gerald le Roux and Willem Pretorius are only four points behind Labuschagne and Erasmus. The top three crews have all won events this season.
In the SA Manufacturers Championship it is no contest with Toyota (310) building up a huge lead over Ford who have 118 points. Nissan, who withdrew from off road racing at the end of last season, are third with 91 points. The next round of the championship is the 4x4 Mega World 400 at Carnival City on the East Rand on August 27 and 28.

The effect of zinc chloride dentifrices on plaque growth and oral zinc levels
Gunbay / Bicakci / Parlak / Guneri / Kirilmaz
The antiplaque potential of zinc salts has been previously demonstrated. The purpose of the present investigation was to establish the effect of zinc chloride dentifrices on plaque growth and on the concentration of zinc in saliva and plaque. Ainc levels in saliva and plaque were measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Elevated zinc levels were observed in saliva and in plaque for 1 hour after contact with a zinc chloride dentifrice. Increased concentrations of zinc were also observed in plaque residue. Further analysis of data showed that subjects with high rates of plaque growth benefited more from the zinc dentifrices than did those with low rates of plaque growth.

Polk County residents raise health care fears at Wyden town hall
GRAND RONDE — Cody Qualman has had more than a quarter million dollars worth of surgeries in his 14 years. They were covered by health insurance, but that may not be the case if Congress repeals the Affordable Care Act.
Cody sat quietly in his wheelchair as Senator Ron Wyden, D-Oregon, discussed potential effects of reshaping health coverage with more than 50 residents Saturday morning at the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde tribal gym.
Wyden's visit to Grand Ronde was his first stop in an eight county trip during the congressional Fourth of July recess to discuss healthcare in Polk, Lincoln, Douglas, Linn, Washington, Deschutes, Lane and Yamhill counties.
Concerns about self-employed and low-income Oregonians losing health coverage under proposed federal reforms increased this week. On Friday, President Donald Trump told Republican leaders they should completely repeal the Affordable Care Act now and develop a replacement later if they can't pass a health care reform bill.
"These Medicaid cuts are just going to hit Oregon like a wrecking ball," Wyden said Saturday, "particularly special needs kids, disabled folks and seniors."
Patrice Qualman, of Grand Ronde, sat with her son in the front row of the audience. His personal care provider also sat next to him.
Cody has a rare genetic disorder called cardiofaciocutaneous, which affects his developmental and intellectual growth. His autism spectrum disorder prevents him from speaking and his scoliosis immobilizes his body.
He has undergone 14 surgeries related to his condition since he was four-months-old.
"I'm terrified of the direction our country is taking for our healthcare system," Qualman said. "The changes the Republicans are proposing would result in Cody losing all of his medical funding."
Cody receives home care through Oregon's Department of Human Services Children's Intensive In-Home Services, which cares for children who have intellectual and developmental disabilities.
If Congress repeals the Affordable Care Act, Qualman said funding for those services would fall into her pocket.
"That's all of his medical visits, surgeries and therapy, and there is no way we can afford that," Qualman said. "It's scary to be a parent of a special needs child right now."
Wyden said Qualman join tens of thousands of Oregonians who could be stripped of health care under the proposed reforms.
"These are two people who are the face of what this battle is all about - a parent and a youngster who is completely disabled," Wyden said. "I just don't see how it's going to be possible to ensure that dollars are going to be there for them."
Wyden pointed to a report released Wednesday by the Department of Consumer and Business Services and the Oregon Health Authority stating roughly 440,000 Oregonians would lose health insurance over the next ten years.
"The analysis for the second ten years is that the cut would be significantly greater than it would be for the first ten years," Wyden said. "In the Affordable Care Act, there is protection to make sure that insurance companies don't cap the amount of money that somebody gets if they get cancer or something like that."
The Republican health care bill, however, would allow states to lift that cap, Wyden said.
"If an Oregonian gets cancer, and insurance companies can limit what they're going to pay for care, then Oregonian's are going to feel that in a hurry," Wyden said.
The senator said the next few weeks are crucial. He urges Oregonian's to call their legislators and voice their concerns on social media.
For Qualman, she said her concerns are heightened by the real possibility of institutionalizing Cody in the face of medical care she can't afford.
"These proposed changes are going to destroy families," Qualman said. "People are going to die."

"You Eatin' Nice" has a great healthy alternative to the traditional cream based pasta sauce while maintaining the same smooth texture.
I tried out the recipe with great results. It is easy to make single portions and very quick to whip up.
I took a couple short cuts that made the recipe quicker but did not diminish the taste. I substituted fresh squeezed lemons for Lemon Juice and switched basil and garlic for pesto.

There are a ton of wonderful ways to revamp your favourite old heels when they become worn or need restyling. Here's a look at one that I did a couple months ago.
I apologize for the poor quality of my camera and the fact that I do not have pictures of the process!
I started off with plain white heels that had become a little bit scuffed over time. Using a sharpie permanent marker, I drew a tree stemming from the heel and wrapping around to the arch of the shoe. Upon finishing, I sealed my drawings by modpodging over them. (If anyone has an alternate option to modpodge, I would love to hear it!) Et voila!

I have come across several similar recipes, such the one at "This American Wife" which includes butter and cinnamon in addition to the brown sugar. I prefer to only add a small amount of brown sugar and my roommate prefers to have hers plain.
Recipe (if you can even call it that!)
1. Cut grapefruit in half and set into an oven-safe dish.
2. Sprinkle on your chosen amount of brown sugar.
3. Place in oven and broil until sugar has melted and is slightly bubbling.

Some of Montreal’s most disadvantaged neighbourhoods appear to be bearing the brunt of the city’s COVID-19 numbers, leading community organizers to question why more wasn’t done to protect them.
Montreal North, one of the city’s poorest boroughs, had over 1,850 cases as of Tuesday evening, and the highest rate of infection in the city — more than double the city’s average.
Marjorie Villefranche, the director of the Maison d’Haiti community organization, said Montreal North and other lower-income neighbourhoods have been hit hard due to crowded living conditions, a population that suffers from pre-existing health conditions and a high proportion of the population working in health care and other essential services.
Community Interviews with Moose FM
“Imagine six weeks in a three-and-a-half with five or six people,” she said, using the Quebec term for a one-bedroom apartment. “It’s difficult.”
Data released by the city of Montreal shows that many of the hardest-hit boroughs are in the city’s northeast, including Montreal North, Riviere-des-Prairies-Pointe-aux-Trembles and Anjou, which house many lower-income people, immigrants and refugees.

Claimants will be given just four weeks – down from three months – to find a job within their preferred sector. After that point, if they fail to make “reasonable efforts” to secure a job or turn down any offer, they will have part of their universal credit payment withdrawn under a tightening of the existing Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) policy.
Currently, work-ready unemployment benefit claimants have three months to find a job in their preferred sector – typically their area of expertise – before sanctions are threatened. The new rules mean sanctions could be imposed four weeks after they make their initial claim for universal credit – in theory, even before they receive their first benefit payment.
Unemployed workers will be forced to take up a job in any sector or face swift financial sanctions under a crackdown designed to fill hundreds of thousands of vacancies in sectors from social care to construction. The move is part of an initiative to get 500,000 people into work by June and fill 1.2m job vacancies nationally.
The Way to Work campaign was flagged up as evidence as an attempt to distract from Johnson's political woes. Cracking down on the unemployed has long been regarded as popular with many voters, although welfare experts said that any rise in levels of benefit sanctions could backfire as low-income families struggle with the cost of living crisis.
Welfare experts said the tightening of benefit sanctions would be counterproductive and could force people into worse jobs and damage careers. They said ministers were out of touch with the realities of life on a low income and ignored the evidence about how best to get people into secure, decently paid work.
“Pushing people to apply for any job regardless of its suitability, underpinned by the very real threat of benefit sanctions, is corrosive to relationships between claimants and advisers, and risks pushing people into insecure and unsuitable employment,” said Ruth Patrick, a senior lecturer in social policy at the University of York. “This is not a way to work, it is a way to policy failure. The government is right that people need and deserve good jobs, but these will not be delivered by compelling people to seek any work, and against a context of continuing in-work poverty.”
The UK’s foremost academic expert on benefit sanctions, David Webster, said that governments often tightened punishments for jobseekers when they were worried about apparently slow uptake of jobs after a recession. But there was no serious evidence that sanctions had ever got more people into work.
“It is simply wasteful to force people quickly into roles that can lead to bad job matches, and push people into worse jobs, often with lasting ill-effects for their career and earning prospects. You can’t force square pegs into round holes,” the University of Glasgow research fellow said.
The last big sanctions drive occurred between 2010 and 2016 when, at its height, 1 million people a year were sanctioned, leading to widespread poverty and hardship. This was subsequently eased, and sanctions were temporarily suspended under the first lockdown, but in recent months sanctions levels have crept up again.

In a statement to the press, Nintendo affirmed that it is "absolutely not trying to provide social commentary" with the upcoming launch of 3DS life sim Tomodachi Life and that it has no intention of embracing the #Miiquality fan campaign's demands for same-sex relationships within the game.
The #Miiquality fan campaign was started last month following Nintendo's announcement that the Japanese game Tomodachi Life was coming to the U.S. in June.
— Miiquality (@Miiquality) May 5, 2014
"Nintendo never intended to make any form of social commentary with the launch of Tomodachi Life," said Nintendo. "The relationship options in the game represent a playful alternate world rather than a real-life simulation. We hope that all of our fans will see that 'Tomodachi Life' was intended to be a whimsical and quirky game, and that we were absolutely not trying to provide social commentary."
Japanese players often dress up their Tomodachi Life characters in clothes from the opposite gender as a way to have the appearance of in-game same-sex relationships.

The notification for the CII for FY 2018-19 is issued on date 5 June, 2018.
CII number is used to compute the inflation-adjusted purchase cost of an asset in order to calculate LTCG on it when it is sold. These numbers are important to compute the long-term capital gains/long-term capital losses on the assests sold in FY 2018-19.
The formula to calculate inflation-adjusted cost price is: (CII of the year of sale/CII for the year of purchase) * Actual cost price
Here is the table showing all the CII numbers for FY 2001-02 to FY 2018-19:
|Financial Year||CII Number|
In Budget 2017, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley announced the shifting of base year from 1981 to 2001. The revision was announced to address the problems faced by taxpayers while calculating capital gains tax payable on assets acquired on or before 1981.
Also Read: How to compute capital gains
However, there are two things that individuals need to keep in mind. Firstly, this CII number will be used to calculate inflation-adjusted cost only for those assets where inflation-adjusted (indexation benefit) is allowed. Therefore, any LTCG arising from equity shares and equity-oriented mutual funds will not be eligible for this benefit. On the other hand, LTCG arising from the sale of house will be eligible to use the indexation benefit.
Secondly, this CII number will be required to calculate LTCG for the FY 2018-19. The taxes on these gains will be paid by you while filing your income tax returns (ITR) for FY 2018-19. The ITR forms for FY 2018-19 has been notified by the government.
For computing the inflation-adjusted LTCG for assets sold between April 1, 2018 and March 31, 2019, the CII number to be used is for FY 2018-19 which is 280. The government is yet to notify CII number for FY 2019-20.
Also Read: Cost Inflation Index number for FY 2017-18 announced
House purchased in 2008-09 for Rs 20 lakh and sold in FY 2018-19 for Rs 41 lakh. The inflation adjusted cost and LTCG on it will be calculated as follows:
Inflation adjusted cost: (280/137) * 20 lakh = 40.87 lakh
LTCG: 41 lakh - 40.87 lakh = Rs 12,000 (Approx)

Before they were famous, some very well known actors lived in share houses to try and save a few dollars as they attempted to make it big in Hollywood.
Not only did they go on to become huge stars themselves, but so too did their roommates.
Here are some celebs you never knew were once roommates:
Brad Pitt and Jason Priestley
The young actors lived together in the 1980s when Brad Pitt was secretly dating Geena Davis.
"Just for fun, we used to have competitions over who could go the longest without showering and shaving," Priestley wrote in his book, Jason Priestley: A Memoir.
"Brad always won. Having to go on an audition meant cleaning up, which is what usually put an end to the streak."
Brad Pitt is now one of the wealthiest movie stars in the world, but life was different back then.
"We lived on ramen noodles and generic beer - the kind that came in white cans labelled BEER - and Marlboro Light cigarettes ... We were all broke," Priestley wrote.
Adam Sandler and Judd Apatow
The two funny men shared an apartment in the San Fernando Valley when they were trying to make it big in Hollywood.
"Back then, life was just doing stand-up or writing jokes," Apatow said to The Hollywood Reporter.
"You would sleep until noon every day and kind of stumble out. You would have to be at work at 8:30 at night. Work was sometimes 15 minutes."
Like all housemates, the two men fought every now and then, especially when Apatow would use Sandler's bathroom.
They also had heated debates about who was better looking.
Sandler moved out when he landed a role on Saturday Night Live in New York but he kept paying his half of the rent because he was convinced he was going to get sacked.
"He just left, like he was going to come back, but he just didn't come back," Apatow said.
Justin Long and Jonah Hill
The up and coming stars lived together in Los Angeles for more than a year in the mid-2000s.
But as Justin Long revealed, the two decided to move out separately after fighting over recycling.
"We're still great friends but it got to be like an old married couple," Long said.
"We fought over recycling. He would recycle everything. I would find banana peels and shards of glass in the recycling bin.
"We started getting in little fights like that, he left the bathroom door open, didn't clean up after himself. Little things like that. It was time for a separation."
Kiefer Sutherland and Robert Downey Jr.
In the late 1980s, the two actors both starred in a movie called 1969 and ended up "kind of" living together for three years.
At the time, Robert Downey Jr. was dating Sarah Jessica Parker and the two were going through a rough patch.
"He (Sutherland) was probably staying with us for a while, and then I was having some trouble with Sarah Jessica, and he was looking after her," Downey Jr. said to Howard Stern, "It was all rather incestuous back then".
Stern asked the Iron Man star if Sutherland was being a mate or if he was trying to steal his girlfriend.
"It's more that thing, like you're all close friends, and he was probably consoling her a bit," Downey Jr. said.
"He didn't steal my girl, he remained in the relationship he was in. He was a shoulder [to cry on]. Better him than some stranger."
Lindsay Lohan and Raven Symone
The two stars first met each other during a photo shoot and they hit it off, so much so that they decided to move in together for 14 months.
But as Raven Symone revealed to Us Weekly, Lohan wasn't much of a housemate.
"She paid rent, and she was there probably three times," Symone said.
"She had her clothes in the apartment we were supposed to live in together."
Robin Williams and Christopher Reeve
In the early 1970s Williams and Reeve were roommates as they studied at Juilliard School in New York.
"The first person I met at Juilliard was the other advanced student, a short, stocky, long-haired fellow from Marin County, California, who wore tie-dyed shirts with track suit bottoms and talked a mile a minute," Reeve in his 1998 autobiography, Still Me.
"I'd never seen so much energy contained in one person. He was like an untied balloon that had been inflated and immediately released. I watched in awe as he virtually caromed off the walls of the classrooms and hallways.
"To say that he was 'on' would be a major understatement. There was never a moment when he wasn't doing voices, imitating teachers, and making our faces ache from laughing at his antics. His name, of course, was Robin Williams."
In a Reddit AMA, Williams was asked what his best memory was of the Superman star.
"Him being such a great friend to me at Juilliard, literally feeding me because I don't think I literally had money for food or my student loan hadn't come in yet, and he would share his food with me," Williams wrote.
Ryan Gosling and Justin Timberlake
The two handsome lads met in 1993 when they both joined the Mickey Mouse Club and they later ended up living together.
"His mother had to keep her job in Canada the second year that we were on the television show," Timberlake told Ellen DeGeneres.
"My mum was his guardian for six months so we actually lived together when we were that age. We were probably a little closer than the rest of the kids that were on the show just because we had to share a bathroom."


LOCATION: Moghadasi St,Niavaran,Tehran
CLIENT: Mohseni and Haraji
PROJECT AREA: 5500
STATUS: The site of this building was located in the junction of Ahmadizamani St. and Moghadasi St. in Niavaran district in Tehran. The ground floor is considered for both commercial shops and office entrance. The levels are assigned for four office units, and the stair case and elevator are designed to be in the middle of the west sideway. The main issue in designing the surface is how we can transform this surface to a spacious space that might be used for planting green zone, being able to join interior space and at the same time elaborating urban façade as a sustainable green surface. To approach this purpose, we have divided the whole volume into vertical boxes with portable panels to distinguish the semi-open or terrace as a moderator space, described above.


ON THE DAMASCUS ROAD (Oct. 22)
This concrete highway from the Golan Heights to Damascus was relatively quiet Saturday–at least for a time. But the stench of war was everywhere–the stench of corpses mouldering under the hot sun, the acrid odor of gun powder that permeates everything, the smell of the charred metal of burnt-out Syrian tanks. This road was the highway the Syrian invasion forces took in their surprise attack Oct. 6.
Now it is littered with the debris of the Syrian retreat. There are some huge Russian-made tanks–T-54s, T-55s and new T-62s–abandoned intact by their crews. Their speedometers register less than 100 miles–almost factory fresh war machines that became booty of war. Israeli soldiers are loading them onto vans. They will be repaired, painted and sent back into action against the enemy.
The scene bears evidence of Israel’s astounding victory achieved against the enemy’s advantage of surprise. But there were also sharp reminders that the war is not over.
As we toured the front lines this bright Saturday afternoon–the JTA correspondent, the driver of the jeep he hired and an Israeli intelligence officer–an artillery duel broke out ahead Shell fire thundered and as we scrambled for the cover of a clump of rocks a black mushroom cloud rose over the road where a shell exploded a half mile from where we had been standing.
A moment before, the scene had been peaceful. Two brown cows were grazing on the dry yellow grass. A donkey moved near a cluster of small houses surrounded by a garden and cultivated fields. Now smoke and fire seemed to erupt from the ground as shells fell in rapid succession.
BATTLES RAGE ON GOLAN HEIGHTS
The shelling lasted for 20 minutes. Then, suddenly, all was quiet. We adjusted our steel helmets and flack vests and returned to the jeep. Israeli oil tankers sped by us on the road on their way to refuel tanks and armored cars. Our jeep bounced along the pavement, pock-marked with shell holes as we came closer to the outskirts of Damascus.
The sound of gunfire that had been remote was now much louder. Ahead, over the crest of a hill, was the Syrian village of Sasa. Israeli tanks there were under Syrian artillery fire and were returning the fire. Clouds of dust and smoke filled the air. Overhead we spotted the vapor trails of two Israeli jets speeding on a mission over Syria, Syrians missiles fired at them exploded in little puffs of smoke. They scored no hits.
This was as far as we were allowed to come. Just beyond Sasa the battle was raging. Behind us were other abandoned villages and houses. What a contrast this was to the Golan Heights through which we had passed on the way to the front. To be sure, there were scars of war. Kuneitra, the Golan capital which the Syrians had occupied for barely more than a day when the war began, was ravaged. The Syrian soldiers appeared to have smashed everything they could get their hands on before they retreated.
There were similar sights at Ein Zivan and Ramat Magshishim–Golan settlements heavily shelled by the Syrians. But now life on the Heights is almost back to normal. There is even civilian traffic on the roads again, though most private cars are driven by women or elderly men.
At one village, Israeli soldiers driving to the front had a flat tire. Two men who had been praying in a nearby synagogue came out to help them, wearing their flowing prayer shawls. It was the Sabbath. But it was also a “mitzvah” and a privilege to help win the war.


Image: Blockchain Technology
Blockchain, the underlying technology behind cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, has created quite a buzz in recent years. It is often touted as the next big revolution in technology, promising to disrupt various industries and transform the way we do business. But what exactly is blockchain?
At its core, blockchain is a decentralized digital ledger that records transactions across multiple computers. It is designed to be transparent, secure, and immutable, making it ideal for various applications beyond cryptocurrencies.
The key feature of blockchain is its decentralized nature. Unlike traditional centralized systems, where a single authority controls and verifies transactions, blockchain relies on a network of computers (nodes) to validate and record transactions. This ensures that there is no single point of failure or vulnerability, making blockchain highly secure and resistant to tampering.
One of the fundamental concepts in blockchain is the concept of blocks. Each block contains a list of transactions and a reference to the previous block, creating a chain of blocks – hence the name blockchain. This chain of blocks forms a digital ledger that is transparent and accessible to anyone on the network.
Image: Blockchain Security
Blockchain has several inherent advantages that make it an attractive technology for various industries. Firstly, its decentralized nature makes it more secure compared to centralized systems. Since there is no single point of failure, the risk of hacking or data manipulation is significantly reduced.
Secondly, blockchain is transparent and verifiable. Every transaction recorded on the blockchain is visible to all participants in the network. This transparency fosters trust and accountability, as anyone can verify the validity of transactions without relying on intermediaries.
Another significant advantage of blockchain is its immutability. Once a transaction is recorded on the blockchain, it cannot be altered or deleted. This feature ensures the integrity and reliability of the data stored on the blockchain, making it a valuable tool for applications where data accuracy is crucial.
Blockchain’s potential applications are vast and diverse. In the financial sector, blockchain can revolutionize the way we conduct transactions, eliminating the need for intermediaries like banks and reducing transaction costs. It can also enhance financial inclusion by providing access to banking services for the unbanked population.
Image: Blockchain in Supply Chain
Supply chain management is another area where blockchain can make a significant impact. By providing a transparent and traceable record of every step in the supply chain, blockchain can help ensure product authenticity, prevent counterfeit goods, and improve efficiency in logistics.
Blockchain also has the potential to transform the healthcare industry. By securely storing patient records and providing real-time access to authorized healthcare providers, blockchain can improve patient care, streamline medical research, and protect sensitive data.
Other potential applications of blockchain include identity verification, voting systems, intellectual property management, and energy trading, to name just a few. The possibilities are limitless, and we are only beginning to scratch the surface of what blockchain can do.


A milestone was reached on Monday when the state of Louisiana went over the one million mark in COVOID-19 vaccinations. In additional news from the Louisiana Health Office the state expects to get 37,900 doses of the one-shot, easier-to-use Johnson & Johnson vaccine sometime this week.
“We are hopeful over the coming weeks and months that this third vaccine will help ease supply constraints and bring America and Louisiana one step closer to ending this pandemic,” said state Health Officer, Dr. Joe Kanter.
Hospital systems are ready for the vaccine that experts are calling a “game-changer.”
“These vaccines are safe. They are extremely effective and they prevent death from COVID,” said Dr. Sandra Kemmerly, System Medical Director of Hospital Quality, Infectious Disease Specialist with Ochsner Health.

Mayor Barrett to Host 6th Annual Walk 100 Finale
Event to celebrate walks held this summer and over 147 walks in initiative’s history
September 5, 2019
MILWAUKEE – Friday, September 6 at Noon Mayor Tom Barrett will host his 6th Annual Walk 100 Miles in 100 Days finale at Cathedral Square Park. The finale will celebrate the end of the 2019 Walk 100 season and the over 147 walks hosted throughout the program’s six-year history.
Local health and fitness organizations will be present to provide wellness information and sign participants up for local classes, memberships and programs. Starting at 11:30 a.m., the first 150 people into the park will receive a free lunch. On the menu is a The Next Level Vegan MKE wrap, Pete’s Fruit Market smoothie and fruit provided by Outpost Natural Foods.
The YMCA of Metropolitan Milwaukee will lead the group in an energizing warm-up. Following brief remarks by Mayor Barrett, there will be a raffle of prizes and the walk will begin. The route starts and ends at Cathedral Square Park. Participants will be walking one mile downtown.
Throughout the program, participants were encouraged to walk on their own, in a group or join one of the many community walks to work toward the goal of 100 miles in 100 days. 61 participants met the challenge in 2019. The participant with the most miles logged reached 853 miles. Following his finale walk, the Mayor will have logged 30 miles over 22 walks with over 1,300 participants.
About the Walk 100 Miles in 100 Days Challenge
Mayor Barrett created the Walk 100 Miles in 100 Days Challenge in 2013 with the belief that when residents walk alongside people in their community, relationships are formed and our city becomes stronger. Walk 100’s overall goal is to increase physical activity among residents while promoting the uniqueness of Milwaukee’s neighborhoods. Throughout the summer, Walk 100 partners with community organizations, elected officials, and residents to host walks in all corners of the city.

DETROIT – A Detroit-based company is celebrating more than 30 years of building, redesigning and restoring pipe organs around the Midwest.
Covenant Pipe Organs works with churches and other musical venues to bring their old pipe organs back to life.
Recently, the team restored a pipe organ at Detroit's Sainte Anne de Detroit Parish, the second-oldest continually operating catholic parish in the country.
They've also recently completed the restoration of a pipe organ from St. Benedict's in Highland Park and installing it at St. Patrick Parish in White Lake.
"We service many of the historic academic institution instruments in and around Detroit and the greater Mid-West, and we are in constant dialogue with major Symphony Orchestras about pipe organs for their concert halls," their website states.

Welcome to the Château Royal, where guests are greeted with positive affirmations like "you sexy m***** f*****!!!!" Alone, the uplifting messages — as scribbled on the hotel's walls — earn Berlin's latest hotel a thumbs up in my book. However, the Château Royal has plenty more to offer.
Inside the Château Royal, guests will discover a bar, winter garden, lounge with a cozy fireplace, private dining rooms and salons, and a plethora of artworks.
Over 100 of the city's contemporary artists contributed works to the hotel, as curated by KW Institute for Contemporary Art director Krist Gruijhtuisen and gallerist Kirsten Landwehr.
In addition to the public spaces, each room comes with a unique work by a participating Berlin artist. It's almost like an art gallery — that you can stay at.
Additionally, Château Royal is also home to Dóttir — Icelandic for "daughter" — the hotel's vegetable-focused (not necessarily vegetarian) restaurant led by chefs Victoria Eliasdóttir and Elena Müller.
There, classic bites like oysters on the rocks and seasonal dishes like the signature "In Beans We Trust" (Pilarica beans served with smoked mushrooms, crème fraiche, pumpkin, orange zest, and kale) join wine pairings — as carefully selected by Alexander Brauer, "the man with the keys to the cellar," as they like to call him.
The Château Royal has five floors and 93 rooms, including 23 suites and one apartment. While there may be only one actual extended-stay-style quarter, suites foster an undeniably homey feel.
Drenched in warm hues and cozy textures, rooms arrive with desks, poufs, armchairs, lamps resembling lanterns, and high ceilings mirroring the essence of a Berlin flat (with some extra perks).
Interestingly, one of the minds behind Château Royal is Stephan Landwehr, the co-founder of Grill Royal — Berlins' upscale steakhouse praised for its comfort, dishes, and luxe ambience. It's no wonder the same energy follows with Landwehr's hospitality venture.
The Château Royal didn't open its doors until September of last year, but the building itself dates back to 1850s. In short, there are loads of history between these walls, including a brief stint as a Berlin Stasi spy base.
In designing the space, interior designers Irina Kromayer, Etienne Descloux, and Katariina Minits went with 19th and 20th-century influences as way of honoring not only the building's lengthy past but Berlin's rich history.
Details like the colored glass comprising the bar's wall and craquelé tiles fixated in the bathrooms further reiterate the hotel's retro inspirations and feels.
Château Royal looks like a posh stay, to say the least. Between support for the local art community and the modern spin on a Berlin's past, the hotel is undoubtedly a worthy contender to be the next it spot for like-minded creatives, after Soho House Berlin.
For those interested in booking at the hotel (rooms start at 195 euros, by the way), Château Royal will be awaiting your arrival with veggie bites and subtle reminds of your sexy appeal.

Romeo and Juliet at a Glance
In William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, a long feud between the Montague and Capulet families disrupts the city of Verona and causes tragic results for Romeo and Juliet. Revenge, love, and a secret marriage force the young star-crossed lovers to grow up quickly — and fate causes them to commit suicide in despair. Contrast and conflict are running themes throughout Shakespeare's play, Romeo and Juliet — one of the Bard's most popular romantic tragedies.
Written by: William Shakespeare
Type of Work: play
Genres: romantic tragedy
First Published: 1594-1595
Setting: Verona, Italy
Main Characters: Juliet; Romeo; The Nurse; Mercutio; Friar Laurence
Major Thematic Topics: love; revenge; fate; courtship; marriage; value/doubleness; meaning of gender
Motifs: fate; light and darkness
Major Symbols: poison; nighttime
Movie Versions: Romeo and Juliet (1968); Romeo + Juliet (1996)
The three most important aspects of Romeo and Juliet:
- The first half of Romeo and Juliet, with its bawdy jokes, masked ball, and love poetry, is more like a Shakespearean comedy than a tragedy. Only after Tybalt kills Mercutio near the play's midpoint do things become tragic.
- Near the start of Romeo and Juliet's famous balcony scene, Juliet asks "Wherefore art thou Romeo?" Because the word "wherefore" means "why," Juliet is wondering why the boy she loves is called what he's called — not where he is, as many readers believe.
- Juliet is a mere 13 years old, and Romeo is not much older.

‘Vicious’ dog removed from LudlowMay 14,2013By Christian Avard
LUDLOW — A “vicious” dog has been removed from the town of Ludlow despite assurances from the owner that the dog is safe.
The Select Board voted Thursday to remove “Stella,” a female German shepherd, from the town after the dog attacked a woman on April 26. The dog’s owner is Anne-Marie Hanson who lives at 132 Ranta Road in Ludlow.
According to the minutes of the Select Board meeting, Ludlow Police Officer Jonathan Waldman reported that Linda Hastings of Mount Holly was out on a run on Ranta Road and was bitten by Stella, according to an eyewitness.
Waldman said Hastings “had gauze on her face with puncture wounds and a laceration” and reportedly required 25 stitches, according to Select Board member Bruce Schmidt. Hanson said she and her boyfriend James Reichard of Stamford, Conn., held Stella back when Hastings ran by the first time, but admitted that Stella was not on a leash
when Hastings ran by the second time.
At the hearing, Town Animal Control Officer Steve Laskevich told the Select Board that “people do not walk or run on Ranta Road anymore” because of Stella’s aggression. He added that it “affects people from Jackson Gore” and his wife “who won’t walk the road anymore.”

Sir Cliff Richard has announced his new album, 'Music... The Air That I Breathe', will be released next month to mark his 80th birthday.
Sir Cliff Richard will mark his 80th birthday with a new album.
The 'Devil Woman' hitmaker reaches the milestone age on October 14, and to celebrate the special occasion he's recorded two new songs, 'Falling For You' and 'PS Please', for the LP 'Music... The Air That I Breathe'.
The record - which is set for release on October 30 - will also feature his duets with Bonnie Tyler, The Bellamy Brothers, Sheila Walsh, The Piano Guys and Albert Hammond, as well as covers including The Beatles' 'Heer Comes The Sun'.
Cliff said: ''Looking back, I remember thinking that I wouldn't make it to 50 and heer I am at 80, and what's even better than that is I have a new album!
'''Music... The Air That I Breathe' which features, not just me, but friends I admire who duetted with me on some of the tracks.
''I loved recording it and hope you will enjoy listening to it.''
The music legend had already announced a tor to celebrate his 80th, dubbed 'The Great 80 Tour', which was due to kick off in Gateshead on September 23, and wrap with two consecutive nights at the iconic Royal Albert Hall in London on October 12 and October 13.
However, it's been postponed due to the ongoing threat of COVID-19.
Cliff - who has been making records since the 1950s - has slowed down and reduced his touring schedule in recent times, but vowed to never retire from the music industry.
He said previously: ''The word 'retire'... I don't think that's in my vocabulary.
''What I plan to do is what I've done now, really.
''I've slowed, I've made it a level area - I don't tor for five or six months the way I used to.
''I can come back with my band - they're all friends of mine.
''We dine together, we stay in the same hotels, we do shows and people come and enjoy themselves.''
Every time he considers quitting, someone suggests a tor and he ''just can't resit it''.
He said: ''Sometimes I wake up in the morning and realize I haven't sung for six months and it's wonderful not having to worry about my throat giving out.
''So at those moments I think to myself, 'If I never did another show, I'd be very happy.' Then, blow me down, somebody suggests going on tor again and I'm saying, 'Oh, yes please!' I get all excited again and can't wait to get out on stage. I just can't resist it.''
The new LP will follow 2018's 'Rise Up', Cliff's first album of new material in 14 years.

Qatar Airways has announced the next phase of its United States route development with the introduction of three new passenger routes to Los Angeles, Boston and Atlanta during 2016. With these new destinations, Qatar Airways will offer daily non-stop services to all ten of the largest metropolitan areas of the United States and its latest growth is sure to antagonise the US majors which are fighting through the ‘Partnership for Open and Fair Skies’ lobby group to stop, at least temporarily, the growth of the Gulf hub carriers into US skies.
The first new route will be to Los Angeles, a destination already served by Gulf hub rivals Emirates Airline and Etihad Airways from Dubai and Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The airline will serve the second largest city in the United States with a daily Boeing 777 rotation from January 1, 2016. This will be followed by daily flights to Boston, the capital and largest city of Massachusetts, from March 16, 2016 using its new Airbus A350XWB equipment, while daily flights to Atlanta, Georgia, the business centre of the southeast region of the United States will commence from July 1, 2016, again using 777 equipment.
The Boston market is currently served by Emirates Airline, but Qatar Airways will be the first of the three major Gulf hub carriers to introduce non-stop links to Atlanta, albeit both Emirates and Etihad are understood to have the city on their radars for future growth.
Alongside the new routes, increasing passenger demand to America’s largest city and financial centre, New York, has prompted Qatar Airways to add a second daily service to the city from March 1, 2016, operated by an A350XWB. Qatar Airways has served the city daily since the initial route launch in 2007 and its current flight is operated by a 777.
"As Qatar Airways continues its global expansion, we are delighted to be offering even more gateways in the United States, connecting passengers from destinations across the Middle East, the Indian subcontinent, Africa and Southeast Asia,” said His Excellency Akbar Al Baker, Chief Executive, Qatar Airways Group.
"We look forward to offering a great travel experience to our US passengers on the World's Best Business Class across our network of more than 140 destinations, with a convenient one-stop transfer at the new state-of-the-art Hamad International Airport in Doha,” he added.
The airline has seen rapid growth in just 18 years of operation to the point where today it is flying a modern fleet of 156 aircraft to 146 key business and leisure destinations. Among the 146 destinations currently served are Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Mumbai, New Delhi, Singapore, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Jakarta and the Maldives – all with excellent connections from the US cities.
The announced growth from Qatar Airways is sure to further anger the bosses of the three US majors – American Airlines, Delta Air Lines and United Airlines – which are understood to remain disappointed at the level and speed of the US governments reaction to its claim of unfair state subsidies at the Gulf airlines. They had previously called for an immediate freeze on the expansion of the Gulf carriers in the US market while the situation was properly debated and are disappointed the government has not frozen their expansion.
American Airlines CEO, Doug Parker, Delta Air Lines CEO, Richard Anderson and United Airlines CEO, Jeff Smisek recently jointly wrote to the secretaries of State, Commerce and Transportation, expressing alarm that the Gulf carriers have been permitted to add new flights to the US in the ten weeks since they first asked the government to investigate the subsidies case.
“In recent weeks, Emirates has announced new service from Dubai to Orlando (effective September 1), added a second daily flight from Dubai to Boston (effective October 1) and from Dubai to Seattle (effective July 7), and announced that it will upgauge its Milan-New York flight to a massive A380 (effective June 1),” said the correspondence.
“Beyond the announced new service, we understand that one or more Gulf carriers have contacted three additional US airports about starting new flights from the Gulf. These aggressive actions make requesting a freeze pending resolution even more urgent, because with every new US flight, the Gulf carriers not only harm US airlines and workers but also make reaching a negotiated solution more difficult,” the letter stated.
According to the executives the recent growth of the Gulf carriers in the US is a clear sign of them “taking advantage” in the delayed action from the government to “gain even more market share” before there is a reaction from the US.
In our analysis we look in more detail at the annual capacity the three major Gulf carriers are offering into the US market this year, based on published schedules through to December 31, 2015.

Here’s a fantastic strength training technique for a levels from Pamela Hernandez of Thrive Personal Fitness. She showed it to KY3's Paul Adler for this Fit Life.
There is a tool in my personal trainer toolbox that is great for everyone – isometric work.
Isometric exercises are where tension is created in the muscle without contracting the muscle. A plank is a perfect example of an isometric exercise. With plenty of variations, the plank is also accessible to most fitness levels.
Another excellent beginner isometric move is the squat hold or wall sit. For someone just starting strength training, holding a squat or a wall sit is a great way to start engaging the lower body muscles in a way that is also easier on the knees.
For those who are more advanced, you can hold a position with one body part while performing a contracting muscle exercise for another.
For example, you can hold a weight overhead, engaging arms and shoulder, while performing a squat. Or you can hold a lunge will performing an overhead shoulder press or a bicep curl.
Isometric work can also be a new challenge in HIIT style finishers at the end of a workout. One of my favorites is this leg day finisher. Try performing 20 seconds of bodyweight squats, 20 seconds of a squat hold and 20 seconds of rest for 3-5 rounds at the end of your workout for a new challenge.

UCAN Executive Director Mark Tomey said at the time that the audit request was “politically motivated retaliation for our effectiveness.”
The audit (pdf) was released this week, and the program received high marks.
Auditors found that compensation levels for intervenors were not too high, and in fact chastised the PUC for underpaying in some cases because it wasn’t applying market rates. One of the report’s main criticisms was that the commission was too slow in making payments, racking up about $40,000 in interest payments it could have avoided.
It also noted that the commission regularly violated the requirement that intervenors be given preliminary notice of their eligibility to receive compensation within 30 days of petitioning for acceptance, which might discourage some from participating.
The auditors found the intervenors to be uniformly suitable to assist consumers and were, in many cases, consumers themselves. It called the process of determining their compensation “robust” and thorough. The commission awarded $25.5 million for 337 claims that intervenors submitted from 2008 through 2012.
The intervenor compensation program gives nonprofit and citizen groups support in battling mega-corporations with tons of resources, including PUC-savvy lawyers. Consumer Federation of California Executive Director Richard Holober, whose group was among the intervenors studied in the audit, says the program “has saved California consumers billions of dollars by scaling back outlandish rate hike proposals, and by reining in bait and switch advertising and other deceptive industry practices.”
And, according to the auditor, they’ve done it at discount prices.


Hardware-Enabled Security for Server Platforms:
Enabling a Layered Approach to Platform Security for Cloud and Edge Computing Use Cases
In today’s cloud data centers and edge computing, attack surfaces have significantly increased, hacking has become industrialized, and most security control implementations are not coherent or consistent. The foundation of any data center or edge computing security strategy should be securing the platform on which data and workloads will be executed and accessed. The physical platform represents the first layer for any layered security approach and provides the initial protections to help ensure that higher-layer security controls can be trusted. This white paper explains hardware-based security techniques and technologies that can improve platform security and data protection for cloud data centers and edge computing.

Happy Friday Friends! As another week is closing, we are so excited to share some of our favorite images, that just hit our inbox, from Caroline & Zach’s beautiful ceremony and reception at the Hermitage Museum and Gardens! They celebrated their day full of love surrounded by family and friends!
Missy Christianson of Antonia Christianson Events was their coordinator, and we had a feeling that this ceremony and reception was going to be quite the gorgeous night!

We couldn’t have been more eager for these to hit our inbox, so needless to say we were screaming with joy on the inside when we saw the beautifully captured shots from Eleise Theuer Photography! They truly have lasting images to share for years to come!

Food: My goodness gracious I don’t even need to try to guesstimate how much I spent on meals throughout this journey. Why did no one inform me I was visiting four of the most expensive nations on earth? 10 and even more (Iceland).
Look for the pink, white, and blue USTOA emblem figured prominently on tour brochures for the tour corporations you consider. 1,000,000 of liability insurance, which is able to protect you from default or failure to perform. All member companies must have management employees with quantitative experience in the travel industry.
Are you planning a backpacking trip to Europe and don't know where to start? If yes, then this information was made only for you! This information is a collection of the best “methods to's” and “tips” on backpacking by Europe on the internet.
This story seems in the new guide, Italy From a Backpack. I ran the two miles to the hostel outside Siena, my backpack bouncing painfully on my shoulders. The supervisor had instructed me that they had solely one area remaining.
50/day, no matter what country. If you’re frugal it is straightforward to return under this budget. 50/day. Note that this is not including your pre-journey expenses like purchasing flights, insurance, and gear.
I wished to attend until I was back from my trip to write down this up so I might speak from experience on which objects were helpful/helpful! These are all simply my trustworthy opinions and what worked best for me!
As I walked down the country highway aspect and admired the view I couldn't help however wonder what everybody else was doing right now back at home. As I checked out my watch and seen that because it was 4 pm here it must be early morning there since we were on reverse sides of the Earth.
You may think you’ve scored large time whenever you ebook a fancy hostel (complete with bar! meals! pool!) for cheap, but I might suggest being weary of such accommodations. When hostels feel like motels, travelers tend to be less social. Kitchen, ambiance (somewhere in between chill and party) and communal lounge areas.
Cruises are available all through the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, and even throughout Europe’s river network. River cruises with AmaWaterways have been extremely in style of late, permitting travellers the convenience of falling asleep in one destination and waking up in one other!
You inform us what your dream is like and we’ll embellish it, tailor it, and orchestrate it for you. We’ll arrange each aspect, your flights, motels, room class, from sea views to suites, rental vehicles, personal transfers and customised European sightseeing tours.
Click right here to have a look at prices on Amazon and find the best deal. This versatile pack gives a sleek look that's lacking in many women’s backpacks. It features a LightWire body that makes it straightforward to hold, in addition to an AirScape back panel to decrease sweating.
With the number of trains available and an equally spectacular number of locations, there's always someplace to go in the event you find your orginal plan falling apart. Night trains present a cheap (when you've got a go) alternative place to sleep, they usually can help you travel while getting your nights relaxation.
I wish to do ALL of those! We’re considering of doing a Spain trip later this year, and had been contemplating adding some time in Portugal and/or Gibraltar onto it as well. It’s good to know that we’re not completely loopy for presumably going that route.
Let’s go to the pockets. Well, it has one entrance pocket organizer, one pocket on and beneath the lid, two on the sides, a stash pocket on the entrance and two pockets on the hip belt. That’s quite a lot of pockets!
After a few weeks in the South of France, make your means by practice or automobile to Northern Italy, able to make your method down the centre in direction of the gorgeous Italian coastline. Or perhaps you’d just relatively see all of it?
You are perfectly within your rights to reject any rooms that feel unsafe, such as one that requires a long walk down an unlit corridor and even crossing outside to a different building. Some large hostels have ladies only dorms or floors which might be safer and more snug for female travelers.
But in Europe you will be strolling and taking public transportation too much. At first, I listened to my playlists on the metro and bus to simply avoid undesirable conversations for bizarre guys on the metro. But after the months went on I listened to music while on transportation or walking because I missed the sound of English.
Travelers who want spontaneity would possibly need to arrange their own tours. Travel guides like Lonely Planet and Moon Travel Guides cater specifically to backpackers and have more germane data than a general information like Fodor's.
Train passes would’ve worked if we had been booking at the last minute. There have been a couple of trains we purchased tickets for at the last minute (within the Netherlands and Belgium, and short distances in Italy) because the prices had been virtually the same and we wanted to leave ourselves some flexibility.

Hannah Brotherton answered on 27 Jun 2013:
This question is something very very close to my heart!!!!!
If someone was inside a burning car and you were driving past – would you stop and help them???
Many would be scared to..maybe because they wouldn’t know what to do, or maybe there is no point because they would both die, maybe they are too selfish and don’t care (because some people can be like this)
Some might stop…..because they know the person, because they know they can help, because they just happen to be a firefighter.
This decision is based on WHO you are……so this depends on our personalities. Our personalities are in the front part of our brain and can differ from person to person because of how they were brought up.
However, we still have animal instincts and this is why we get scared of loud noises or run away from snakes. If we were still animals and saw a burning car, we would run away.
But the front part of our brain makes us human and lets us make decision, taking into decision the pros and cons. We also have emotions which can affect our decisions like empathy – so we feel what others feel
So when we see a burning car, we have the animal instinct to run away from the fire, but our human side feels empathy and tell us that person is hurting and that we must save them no matter what.
Usually the human side ins and that is why we get amazing heroic stories in the press
But why do people save themselves…..the brain has put together all the cons and pros – like how strong you are – can you breathe in all the smoke, is the person already unconscious and tells you body to get out of there. But sometimes we can fight what our brain tells us and this is why people just stand there and watch – because they haven’t decided what to do yet.
Sometimes in some situations, you can only save yourself – but people of our human side and the emotions we feel like guilt – we can feel really upset and angry afterwards.
This is why we have scientists that look after our minds and thoughts – these are called clinical psychologists. Just because we might not have been physically hurt when trying to save someone, by saving ourselves and seeing them die will impact our emotions so much that we can become overwhelmed by guilt and sadness. Psychologists are here to treat your mind and treat your emotions.
I hope that wasn’t too deep for a Thursday morning 🙂
Ian Wilson answered on 27 Jun 2013:
This is a great question because it looks at human characteristics that we’re sometimes not happy to look at.
Pretty much every animal on the planet has a survival instinct. This is a natural urge to preserve your own life. All life is born with an instinct to save itself and protect itself from danger. That’s because, if you live longer, you have a better chance of mating and passing your genes onto the next generation. And that’s a key part of life – everything competes to pass on its genes.
What’s really fascinating is when we choose to save someone else instead of ourself. In that case, we’re fighting our natural instincts and sacrificing ourselves for the benefit of others. This is called ‘altruism’ and can be seen in a few species in nature. For example, soldier ants will launch suicidal attacks on predators attacking the colony in an effort to save the colony. They know they’ll die but their group and species stands a better chance of surviving if they sacrifice themselves. Maybe this is what’s happening to us subconcsiously when we save someone else and sacrifice ourselves – we just don’t know yet!
Hope that helps,
Jono Bone answered on 27 Jun 2013:
That’s a tough question.
I suppose our survival instinct is largely associated with the fight, flight or freeze response. This is a physiological reaction that occurs in response to a perceived harmful event, attack, or threat to survival and primes us to fight, run away or freeze (play dead). This reaction comes from the hypothalamus, in close association with the limbic system of the brain.
Some people do die to save others. This is most likely if the individual you are saving is related to you. This is because by saving them you are in a away saving part of yourself because you share genes with them. This is called kin selection and is used to explain how these kind of behaviours could evolve.
how many veines are there in the brain?
I know a load of wounded soldiers some blind some deaf some with no limbs etc.. Do you think that there will be bionic
What super powers do humans potentially have now that we could use if we learnt how
if we used every single part of our brain would we be able to move stuff with our hands

Cash free parking scheme extended throughout city
An easy cash-free way to pay for parking in Aberdeen is being rolled out across the Granite City.
PayByPhone, which allows motorists to pay for their parking over the phone, instead of buying a parking ticket, and extend their parking time without returning to their vehicle, has been available in the council-run car parks for a year.
The scheme has proven so popular with customers that Aberdeen City Council has decided to make it available in all pay and display parking areas.
More than 40,000 transactions have been made through the PayByPhone system since it was introduced to council car parks last December, with 4,500 people signing up to the service in Aberdeen.
Council leader and Enterprise, Planning and Infrastructure convener Barney Crockett said: "The PayByPhone service has proven to be extremely popular with people using council car parks and I am sure the extension of the scheme across the city will be welcomed by all.
"Cash-free payment systems are widely used for parking across the UK and are very user friendly. The reminder and top-up facilities are particularly useful and allow people to go about their business knowing they don't have to dash back to their vehicle to renew a parking ticket. The PayByPhone extension will make it easier to shop, socialise, visit, and do business throughout Aberdeen."
Motorists can register to use PayByPhone at any time. To use the service for the first time, drivers simply register their vehicle and payment card, then continue to make their payment via their mobile phone. Registration and payment can be made by phone, text, online, mobile web or the PayByPhone app.
When registering for PayByPhone, consumers can also choose to receive text reminders which tell them when the parking session is about to expire, so they can extend it without returning to their car. Payments and statements can be monitored easily and securely on the PayByPhone website.
Motorists using the system will not have a ticket to display on their vehicles. City wardens can check the status of the vehicles by entering the registration number into their handheld devices, which are automatically updated when a motorist makes a payment.
The scheme is being extended from today [Monday, 4 March] and motorists are advised to register for the scheme ahead of using it for the first time.
For more information visit www.paybyphone.co.uk


“The Kennedy name may not be so politically potent as it once was. But it still resonates in some Democratic circles,” John Nichols, national affairs correspondent, writes this week. Will that be enough to get Robert Kennedy Jr., a vaccine skeptic, on the ballot?
Despite his red flags, Nichols thinks “Kennedy is very likely to be the most prominent [candidate] of the ‘multiple others.’” And his candidacy, strewn with “many real and potential liabilities,” will likely rest on the state of New Hampshire.

PS4 Firmware 1.75 to be released next week!
Even though Sony has just published their PS4 firmware 1.74, which added a whole lot of nothing, they’ve just announced to publish yet another firmware update, the firmware 1.75.
The new firmware 1.75 will enable you to watch 3D movies on your TV via your PS4, something that the PS3 is able to do since quite a while.
The PS3 and PS4 got a few updates since April 2014, but the PS Vita did not.
Will Sony finally publish another PS Vita update to keep parity with the PS4?

Here are some Diet Foods You Probably Thought were Healthy!!! This will blow your mind!!
1. Diet Soda
Diet soda can actually make you gain weight. Drinking diet soda can make you likely to overeat. The answer is because your body is tricked into believing you’re ingesting sugar and it makes you crave more.
2. Microwave Popcorn
Microwave popcorn contains the organic compound diacetyl to give you that butter taste. Try to avoid this ingredient! You’re better off making your own popcorn.
3. Granola Bars
Commercial granola bars can be loaded with corn syrup, salt and processed oils that can add to your waistline. Opt for making your own granola at home, but watch your portions.
4. Veggie Burgers
Say isn’t so! Going veggie could damage your diet. Read the labels. Some are made with processed soy and loaded with oils and butter. Also Hexane has been found in veggie burgers. This a gasoline by-product used during the process of separating soybeans into oil.
5. Low Fat Yogurt
Yup. Low fat products like yogurt can be loaded with sugar. In a cup of Stoneyfield Farm French Vanilla yogurt, there are 20-plus grams of sugar.
6. Blue Chips
Blue corn chips or vegetable chips are a great alternative to potato chips. But again, there needs to be portion control. They can be loaded with salt and fatty oils.

text: Determined to teach myself how to texture! I decided it was best to learn how to texture simple objects and then work my way up in terms of complexity. I'm very pleased with the noodle models themselves, however, I am not completely happy with the texture. I made a custom pattern in Photoshop from an actual pool noodle and this is what came of it. I'm happy with the pattern/texture itself, but I want it to appear smaller on my model, so it doesn't look like a giant porous sponge. I want the actual foam to look smaller and more compact if that makes sense. Off to go look for more tutorials on how to do so!
