The Chestermere RCMP are warning the general public of fraudulent telephone calls claiming to originate from the RCMP detachment to callers into the Calgary area.
The RCMP was notified that the Chestermere detachment's phone number was "spoofed" and used by the callers to coerce the victims into providing personal information such as their Social Insurance Number (SIN). These callers are also telling some of the victims that they are under investigation by the RCMP and that they will be arrested, unless they transfer large amounts of money within the next few hours.
Spoofing occurs when a caller identification (caller ID) or call display are manipulated to show trusted phone numbers. This tricks people into answering the call and believing they are speaking with a trusted source. Do not use call display as a way to authenticate who is calling. Fraudsters may use a variety of other telephone scam tactics to create anxiety so that victims respond by sending money quickly in order to fix the problem.
If you receive unsolicited calls that are coercive or threatening and claiming to be police or any other government department, don't panic, don't react, and please hang up.
Police services in Canada including the RCMP do not contact individuals via email or telephone for the purpose of collecting fines or money. Don't give out personal information on unsolicited calls such as your name, address, date of birth, SIN or credit card information.
The RCMP is issuing this media advisory to warn the general public of this activity. If you have received similar telephones calls or know of someone who has, please contact your local police and the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre (CAFC) at 1-888-495-8501 or through its website at https://www.antifraudcentre-centreantifraude.ca/index-eng.htm.
Points to Remember:
- No legitimate government agency or business will demand payment in gift cards or prepaid credit cards. These methods are used by criminals in order to hide their activities from police;
- If you receive a call from someone claiming you owe money, get as much information from them as possible and tell them you will call them back.
- Find the government agencies’ phone number through a trusted source (phonebook, or official website) and call the department back. Don’t trust the phone number or email from the caller until you have verified that they are who they say they are.
- Do not share any personal information with the caller, such as your name, social insurance number, address, etc. The best protection from scammers is to learn how to resist being pushed into a decision regardless of how persuasive or aggressive the scammer may be.
- Anyone who believes they may have been victimized by this scam or who has given out personal or financial information in error, is advised to contact their local police service and their financial institution.
- Protect yourself and the vulnerable people in your life by learning how to recognize fraud at Canada’s Anti-Fraud Centre (AntiFraudCentre.ca) and the Canadian Revenue Service (CRA.gc.ca).


Runwood Homes introduces digital care plans
Runwood Homes is introducing Person Centred Software’s (PCS) digital care planning systems across its services.
The PCS Mobile Care Monitoring System is being gradually rolled out over the provider’s 70 care and nursing homes across the UK.
Business Operations Director, Sarah Sanders, said: “We are delighted to be working with Person Centred Software to implement a new digital care plan system at Runwood Homes. Providing our carers with an instant-access, easy-to-use system will enable more time to be spent giving care and spending quality time with our residents.
“Mobile Care Monitoring will encourage staff to record care delivery in more detail due to its ease of use, and will also ensure all staff members are well-informed of every residents care support at the tap of a button, which is really positive for team unity.”
The care monitoring hub will hold all necessary information about each resident’s care needs, enabling streamlined shift handovers and a consistent, centralised digital logging system.
Available via a secure app, Mobile Care Monitoring will include care plans, evidence of care documentation, monitoring information as well as prompts and alerts, entirely bespoke for each resident.
The Mobile Care Monitoring system was recognised with a ‘High Commendation’ award at the Care Home Awards 2018 for its contribution to improving services.
Oakdale Care Group is one of a number of providers using the system to have been recently rated Outstanding (see Mobile Care Monitoring helps Oakdale Care Group to first Outstanding).

How do i configure Switch
I am doing Internship specialising in Technical Problems. but I'm interested on how to Configure a switch and how to server to a network and also where the network comes from: I'm within a large building My department consist of many servers, Network Printers we have more than 500 computer on the network. My email is Luvuyo.Singama@eclgta.gov.za
this is a hell of alot to explain... if you are talking of configuring a switch then it must be a managed switch. a non managed switch has no configuration. a managed switch can be a layer 2 or layer 3 device, by way of definition a swich is a layer 2 device but some allow for dhcp and dns servers and thus they are layer 3 switches. to explain a network of this size would require many hours ....

Nebraska school officials to help fight human trafficking
LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Some Nebraska school administrators have been recruited into a task force against people who sell children for sex.
The Nebraska Human Trafficking Task Force welcomed an auditorium full of Lincoln Public Schools officials Tuesday, the Lincoln Journal Star reported.
"We've just recruited you into this army," said Glen Parks, who coordinates the state task force organized in 2015. "There's not one tell-tale sign. You've got to use your intuition. ... this is a crime that happens in the shadows."
Parks and Erin Aliano, a special projects coordinator of the Nebraska Alliance of Child Advocacy Centers who specializes in child sex trafficking, presented a course into the sex trafficking world and how to recognize signs that their students might be victims.
Aliano said to look for changes in behavior or unexplained and unexcused absences. She also said a normally outgoing student becoming quiet could indicate that something is wrong.
"Something that makes your stomach go 'ugh' usually means something is not right here," Aliano said.
She also encouraged school officials to be part of a cultural shift away from seeing missing children simply as runaways and instead as victims.
"Instead of asking 'what did you do?' (when missing), ask 'what happened to you?'" Aliano said. "Look at the child first as a victim."
Parks said teachers can also help educate students about safety on social media and what a legitimate job opportunity looks like.
The Human Trafficking Initiative estimates that about 900 Nebraska residents, 200 of which are from Lincoln, are sold for sex online every month.
"We used to worry about who physically had access to our kids," Aliano said. "Now we have to worry about everyone in the world having access to our children."

The Flattest And Most Tight Fitting Hydraulic Bolting Tool In The Industry
The TX series is the “go-to” wrench when standard industrial torque tools are limited by size in their ability to engage the fastener. The TX eliminates issues around the nut, behind the nut and above the nut. On applications with extended stud protrusion, the TX easily slips over to get the torque applied with an accuracy of +/-3%. Contact us for a Free Demo today!
A Tool With Multiple Personalities!
When designing the TX series every application obstruction was taken into consideration. Every unnecessary and cumbersome component was eliminated which created a tool with multiple personalities! The TX prides itself on fitting where others can not and applying vast amounts of torque unheard of by most. All the while still being the most field serviceable tool capable of being utilized and maintained in some of the most demanding environments around the globe. Add to that a tight tolerance torque output that is repeatable over and over year after year. Contact us for a Free Demo today!

Yuba City police: Crash that trapped man was accident
Nov 07, 2012 (Appeal-Democrat - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) --
A crash that trapped a Yuba City man under a vehicle for several minutes last week was an accident, Yuba City police said Wednesday.
Miguel Andrade remains in critical condition at Rideout Regional Medical Center in Marysville.
"There was no criminal intent," Sgt. Michael Green said. "We feel it was a major accident."
Andrade, 35, has been in critical condition since Oct. 30 when he was struck by a car driven by his girlfriend, Megan Vazquez.
Witnesses said last week, Andrade and Vazquez were arguing shortly before the crash, which occurred in the north parking lot of the Live Oak Apartments, on the Downie Street side of the complex.
Investigators submitted a report to the Sutter County District Attorney's Office for review, but are not seeking any criminal charges against Vazquez.
"She was pulling away, he stepped in front and was struck as she was leaving," Green said.
Vazquez, 25, hit Andrade while driving a grey Hyundai Sonata.
The distraught woman remained on scene and passed police sobriety tests.
Andrade was pinned under the vehicle's front driver's side axle for at least 10 minutes and was crushed by the car's weight.
At least two small children witnessed the crash and dozens of area residents gathered around the scene and firefighters worked frantically to remove Andrade from beneath the car.

Nine Inch Nails Perform ‘The Perfect Drug’ First Time Ever
September 21, 2018
How does this happen?! Nine Inch Nails has never played “The Perfect Drug” til this past Tuesday (Sept 18). They just fired up their “Cold and Black and Infinite Tour” and played the song at Morrison, Colorado’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre!
Interestingly, in 2005 Reznor said, “I’m not cringing about it, but it’s not my favorite piece. If they said play me, y’know, the top hundred songs you’ve written, that probably wouldn’t be in the top hundred.”
Looks like Reznor and the band are going outta the norm on the tour – about a week ago they played their “Broken” EP in it’s entirety for the first time ever on the opening night of the tour.
Cool idea. Which band/album would you like to see performed in its entirety?

The Supremes Step In
In a surprising development late yesterday, the Supreme Court ruled 5-to-4 that the Trump Administration’s Title 42 policy would continue to remain in effect at the southern border.
Is this ruling a good thing? Yes. But as some commentators have noted, it’s like a Band Aid on a hemorrhage. Even with this emergency policy in place, the number of illegal aliens still pouring across the border is unlike anything we have ever witnessed.
I know many people are frustrated by the lack of public outrage over this crisis. Well, the sad reality is that most Americans just don’t know about it. They think the number of illegal aliens crossing the border is much lower than it really is.
The reason they believe that is because the same people who are censoring the media, the leftists in Big Government and their allies in Big Media, are not talking about this crisis.
So, your friends and family members have absolutely no clue unless they are listening to conservative radio, watching Fox News or reading reports like ours.
Twenty-one months ago, Vice President Kamala Harris was appointed “border czar,” and tasked with addressing the “root causes” of illegal immigration. As I just noted above, the problem has only gotten dramatically worse since then.
The “root causes” of this problem are left-wing open borders policies for which Joe Biden deserves to be impeached.
Meanwhile, the Biden Administration is gaslighting us.
Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas continually says “the border is secure” and is not open. If the border is not open, why is the Biden Administration building massive tents to accommodate the massive numbers of people walking across the border?
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre says illegal immigration is such a problem because Republicans keep saying the border is open. And the White House’s media allies dutifully repeat that absurd charge.
Over the Christmas weekend, more than 16,000 illegal aliens were encountered at the southern border. Just over 2,000 were expelled under Title 42, but more than 14,000 were released into the United States.
They were likely given smartphones by the Biden Administration, one way it is supposedly tracking illegal aliens in the country. It’s not working. The Biden Administration has “lost” nearly 380,000 illegal aliens in its “alternatives to detention” program.
Within 48 hours, most of them had been transported deep into the United States, courtesy of the federal government. Those 14,000 people are going to do what you often do when you arrive at a destination after a long trip. They’re calling home to tell everyone what the trip was like and that they’re now safely in Omaha, Las Vegas, Nashville or Washington, D.C.
Now, who do you think is more persuasive?
Is it Mayorkas who insists the border is secure?
Is it Karine Jean-Pierre who says the border is closed?
Or is it thousands upon thousands of illegal aliens who are telling their relatives that the border is open and they just walked right in?
A Season of Joy & Peril
While American Christians celebrated another Christmas in peace and prosperity, the same could not be said for many Christians in various nations around the world. This season of joy is also a season of great peril.
According to a recent report by Aid to the Church in Need (ACN), Christian persecution is on the rise around the world. The organization examined conditions in 24 nations and found that conditions for Christians had deteriorated in 75% of them over the past two years.
In that time, more than 7,500 Christians have been slaughtered in Nigeria by militant Islamists. Bishop Jude Arogundade denounced the indifference of other nations, saying:
“No one seems to pay attention to the genocide. The world is silent as attacks on churches, their personnel and institutions have become routine. How many corpses are required to get the world’s attention?”
Referring to Palestinian terrorism in the Middle East, I have often commented that the American media has a high tolerance for dead Jews. The same is also true of black Christians in Africa.
Predictably, the Biden Administration refuses to do anything about it. Once again, this State Department under Secretary Antony Blinken’s leadership has refused to label Nigeria as a “country of particular concern” for religious persecution.
As we prepare for the new year, please pray for our persecuted brothers and sisters overseas, and pray that 2023 will be the year when the genocide against Christians in Africa and the Middle East comes to an end.

the greater the number of people present,
the less likely people are to help.
The bystander effect was first demonstrated following the murder of Kitty Genovese in 1964. The New York Times published a report conveying a scene of indifference from neighbors who failed to come to Genovese’s aid, claiming 38 witnesses saw or heard the attack and did nothing.
Psychologists launched a series of experiments resulting in one of the strongest and most replicable effects in social psychology.
Though this post comes from a blog about healthcare safety, it is just as applicable to the current drive toward “opioid safety”.
Diffusion of Responsibility:
When so many are in charge no one is. Where there are many observers, individuals do not feel as much pressure to take action.
There are numerous groups involved with healthcare safety at international, national, state, regional, hospital and individual department level.
The same is true of the many groups competing to set the most restrictive limits on opioids.
Each of these groups are made up of further subgroups of individuals. Further still these subgroups are not static – a constant flux of staff members into different roles stifles effective response.
The need to behave in correct and socially acceptable ways. When other observers fail to react, individuals often take this as a signal that a response is not needed or not appropriate.
The social norm is to blame pain patients for the spread of opioid addiction and overdose deaths.
Because doctors are not decrying the injustice of taking away pain relief from suffering patients, the authorities believe their policies are effective.
If pressed on an issue individuals or groups may introduce barriers allowing them to delay action sufficiently, in effect not acting at all, thus maintaining perceived acceptable behaviour.
Research demonstrates onlookers are more likely to act if they have a personal connection to the victim.
Most people taking opioids for pain often do so secretly. 99% of the people that see me don’t have a clue that I take opioids – in fact, they don’t even know that I’m in pain.
The average person cannot know how many people are suffering with disabling pain because if we’re lucky enough to have opioid medications, we can persist in spite of our pain and, if it’s bad enough, we’re not in public to be viewed – we’re at home trying too take care of it.
Researchers have found that onlookers are less likely to intervene if the situation is ambiguous. In the Kitty Genovese case many witnesses reported it sounded like a “lover’s quarrel,” and claimed to not realise the young woman was being murdered.
This is the excuse for letting us suffer without feeling any guilt. If we claim to need opioids for pain, we are simply assumed to be lying addicts.
For some bystanders in the Kitty Genovese murder what they experienced would not have been ambiguous. Yes, someone was being stabbed to death in front of them. Self preservation may have hindered their want to act – they too may then be at risk.
This has been the effect of the DEA witch hunt to discourage anyone still wanting to prescribe their suffering patients opioids.
To bring about effective safety change where previously there’s been none requires challenging the status quo, ‘rocking the boat’, in effect potentially threatening ones own career – upset the wrong people and the consequences could be grave. Many of us have mouths to feed and mortgages to pay – are we really going to put that at stake in a futile attempt to change something no one’s been able to change before?
The DEA has shown it has no compunctions about destroying the career and reputation of any doc still willing to prescribe opioids in sufficient amounts to control severe pain. (See DEA Raids Dr. Forest Tennant’s Pain Clinic)
Governing bodies often resort to interventions which are safe for them. They shy away from, for example, recalling an unnecessary workplace hazard. They may fear legal ramifications from the manufacturer and resultant heat from their employer (the health minister).
Often instead the governing body may write a policy or instrument further education in a vain attempt to avoid the hazard.
Governing bodies need to understand the human factors approach and have the courage to introduce effective solutions for patient safety.

THE top 40 will take into account songs that pop into your head for no reason, it has been announced.
After recently being changed to include streaming, the UK charts will now also include tunes that appear in your brain due to completely unfathomable mental processes.
An Official Charts Company spokesman said: The criteria for entering the charts now include things like remembering your ex liked Will Smith and then having Wild Wild West stuck in your head all fucking day.
Its already having an impact on the charts. Thanks to a number of random rememberings, the current UK number one is the 1982 hit Centerfold by the J Geils Band.
You know, the one that goes na-na-na-na-na-na about a bloke whos unhappy because his girlfriends in Razzle, or something.
The new system means next weeks number one could be anything from Phil Collins 1985 hit Sussudio to You Cant Get Better Than A Kwik Fit Fitter. This is a very exciting time for music.
However, critics pointed out that the songs which pop into your head were usually the ones that made people wish they had been born deaf.
Office worker Nikki Hollis said: Itd be ok if it was the Beatles or Radiohead, but its always things like This Beat Is Technotronic going round my head like a malevolent brain parasite.
In Bruges was on the other night and thanks to a convoluted unconscious thought process involving Colin Farrell and Miami Vice, I caused Smugglers Blues by Glenn Frey to re-enter the top 40.

Production and consumption of the world is first cement industry, how to adjust the industrial structure
Cement industry industrial structure adjustment
Into the winter, Beijing and Tianjin and the surrounding areas frequent haze. For the release of industrial structure to adjust the potential to solve the fog, etc., the state decided to implement the whole process of energy and dust and other industries, such as cement, iron and steel, electricity, flat glass and other industries behind the backward production capacity.
China is cement production and consumption rank first in the world, the cement industry, how to adjust the industrial structure?
In order to meet the needs of various construction projects for different strength cement, China has been in the common cement standard series has been set 52.5,42.5 and 32.5 high and low three kinds of cement, cement production and consumption, the three standard cement ratio serious imbalance, low Labeled 32.5 tons of cement as much as 2/3 of the total.
China Cement Industry Association senior adviser Gao Changming said the industry to take effective measures to quickly reduce the proportion of 32.5 cement, which is correct and necessary measures. But still too late, 32.5 cement is not "nothing" or "there is no harm to harm," need to combine the facts and technology trends at home and abroad on the 32.5 cement to be objective and scientific assessment, do the supply side of the reform of the cement structure adjustment work. Cancel 32.5 cement is to yield good recipe?
In China, due to the market demand for 32.5 cement is very large, coupled with production and sales 32.5 cement profits are always at the highest level, pushing up the proportion of 32.5 cement, 2015 accounted for more than 63% of the market, 32.5 composite cement has become a lot of counterfeit " Fake "cement main goal. At present, China has been completed in the administrative procedures to cancel the national standard of 32.5 composite cement, 32.5 composite cement cancellation has also been reported pending.
According to statistics, the international 32.5 cement in the proportion of total cement consumption in 1960-2000, respectively, reached a peak, that is, 30-80%. Gao Changming said that 32.5 cement is an indispensable cement variety established in the universal cement standard series in the world to meet the actual needs of various construction projects. Any one of the national standards, there is no "advanced cement" and "backward cement" points. So the national standard series of low-grade 32.5 cement as "backward cement", it is clear that some non-cement professionals hopefully, misunderstanding "low" means "backward" due.
Reducing excess capacity should cut excess clinker
The impact of low-grade cement on the construction of the main role in the concrete, industry insiders believe that mixed varieties and mixed with the amount of confusion, product quality management is difficult. Some of the cement production enterprises, especially the small grinding station for the pursuit of high profits, at the expense of product quality, in the production of 32.5 cement in the ultra-mixed, chaos mixed with mixed materials, due to complex varieties and the lack of effective quality control means, production Composite cement can not effectively control the harmful chemical composition in the mixture, it is difficult to protect the quality of cement products, building quality and safety risks.
32.5 composite cement in the body will be mixed with a large number of composite materials, to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions, industrial waste consumption plays a vital role. Tsinghua University, Professor of Civil Engineering Professor Lian Huizhen said, in order to backward production capacity, take a mixture of cement surgery, "can only be said to be unworthy." Industrial waste resource, is an inevitable trend, the cement industry duty-bound. "Cut production capacity, can not give up the mixture, you must come up with the courage of the warrior broken wrist, act decisively, cut excess clinker.
Cement clinker is made of limestone and clay, iron raw materials as the main raw material, burned to some or all of the melting, and obtained by the semi-finished products.
It is reported that the current general trend of international cement production is to promote the development of mixed materials deep processing technology to stimulate the activity of the mixture to replace part of the clinker, the production of low clinker mixed cement, that is, 32.5 and 42.5. In particular, in recent years due to the progress of concrete admixture technology, the equivalent amount of 32.5 cement is now ready to produce high quality and strength of concrete, not necessarily use medium and high standard cement Caixing.
Lianhui Zhen said that for concrete, the nominal strength of cement is no longer important. Resulting in the quality of domestic construction, low life for many reasons, such as the lack of long-term concept and planning, short-term serious behavior and planning and design requirements are low, the building has not been the use of the demolition of the construction, blindly reduce costs and cut corners and so on.
Industrial adjustment can not be "one size fits all"
There are saying that the world has long been out of 32.5 cement, the United States are almost all 62.5 high-grade cement, Japan is the use of 52.5 high-grade cement, African countries, the lowest label is 52.5, only 32.5% of China is cement More than 60%, China should have canceled all 32.5 cement.
Gao Changming said that the fact is precisely the opposite of the above statement, almost all countries in the world today have 32.5 cement, or equivalent to 32.5 cement national standards, the market also has 32.5 cement sales. Such as Germany, in 2015 32.5% of the total consumption of cement accounted for 22.1%.
According to statistics, Germany, France, the United States, Britain, Japan and the Nordic and other advanced cement technology countries, 32.5 cement accounted for 10-20%, 42.5 cement for 50-60%, 52.5 cement 40-20% 62.5 Cement is almost zero.
"China is current 32.5 cement accounted for the proportion is indeed too high, should be gradually reduced, but because of its large amount of large, international experience shows that the proportion of 32.5 cement must be actively and orderly gradual implementation of the sudden to cancel all 32.5 cement, Overkill. "Gao Changming said, jumping from one extreme to the other extreme, easy to cement concrete, waste comprehensive utilization of the market caused a huge impact. Should be carefully advancing to promote, to prevent "Destructive Enthusiasm" desire and not up to!

The US Navy has confirmed the location of the destroyer escort USS Samuel B. Roberts 78 years after its loss during World War II.
As announced on social media late last week by retired naval officer and underwater explorer Victor Vescovo, he and a team from the undersea technology company Caladan Oceanic located the John C. Butler-class destroyer escort beneath the surface in the waters of the eastern Philippines.
Vescovo said that he piloted the submersible Limiting Factor to the wrecksite of Samuel B. Roberts.
Vescovo said that, resting at 6,895 metres, it is now the deepest shipwreck ever located and surveyed. This distinction was previously held by USS Johnston, a Fletcher-class destroyer that, like Samuel B. Roberts, was lost in action during the Battle of Leyte Gulf in the Philippines in late October 1944.
Johnston‘s wreck was found at a depth of 6,220 metres by the crew of the research vessel Petrel in late 2019.
Samuel B. Roberts became known among historians as “the destroyer escort that fought like a battleship” when it, along with several other US warships, engaged Japanese forces off the Philippine coast and selflessly put itself in harm’s way to protect US invasion forces in Leyte Gulf.
Now that the ship has been positively identified, the wrecksite is considered a Department of the Navy sunken military craft protected from unauthorised disturbance by the Sunken Military Craft Act (SMCA). Violations of the SMCA can carry penalties of up to US$100,000 a day, confiscation of the vessel used to disturb the sunken military craft, and liability for damages caused.
Permission to disturb US Navy sunken military craft for archaeological, historical, or educational purposes is sought from the Naval History and Heritage Command.

It gradually builds up to a crescendo as Eilish sings: "Fool me once, fool me twice. You'll never see me cry, there's just no time to die."
Initial reaction to the theme has been positive on social media with many of her followers tweeting "you've killed this," in reply to Eilish sharing the track.
The song was shared on the James Bond social media pages over a trailer for the upcoming film - featuring some never-before-seen shots.
In a statement, Eilish said: "It feels crazy to be a part of this in every way.
"To be able to score the theme song to a film that is part of such a legendary series is a huge honour.
"James Bond is the coolest film franchise ever to exist. I'm still in shock."
Finneas added: "Writing the theme song for a Bond film is something we've been dreaming about doing our entire lives.
"There is no more iconic pairing of music and cinema than the likes of Goldfinger and Live And Let Die. We feel so so lucky to play a small role in such a legendary franchise, long live 007."
No Time To Die is due to be released on April 2.

This afternoon as I was walking back to my car from uni, I noticed that (seemingly) overnight the leaves on some trees had turned. It was glorious the dramatic change from green, to beautiful oranges and reds. It made me realise just how amazing nature is. It seems Autumn is really here!
This photo was actually taken in my backyard – I wish I had have captured the trees on my way home.

You have to take things one game at a time in the NBA. However, there are certain matchups that every team has circled going into the season. The matchup with the Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday is one game the Philadelphia 76ers will be particularly looking forward to. This will be Ben Simmons’ first return to Philadelphia to play, assuming he suits up for the matchup.
Charles Barkley of TNT’s NBA Today recently voiced his concern about the situation. While on the program he stated, “I do not feel good about that situation next Tuesday. He’s playing bad. They(‘re) going to let him have it. I hope nothing bad happens… like a fan doing something crazy. Cause it’s gonna be bad and like I say ‘he can’t even rub in their face playing good’. It’s gonna be a hostile environment…He’s gotta play, but man it’s gonna be bad. Man Philadelphia don’t mess around.”
“I do not feel good about that situation… It’s gonna be bad… Philadelphia don’t mess around.”

Barkley’s Experience in Philadelphia
Barkley is no stranger in Philadelphia as he spent eight seasons playing for the Sixers during his playing career. He was wildly successful and averaged 22.3 points and 11.6 rebounds throughout his tenure. Barkley made the All-Star team in six of the eight seasons and also led the NBA in rebounding during the 1986-87 season. As a team, the Sixers made the playoffs in six of the seasons with Barkley and he was the best player on the team during this stretch. He also had his number 34 jersey number retired by the organization due to his strong play.

The city of Philadelphia has been known to be harsh on opposing teams and fans when traveling to play there. While this is overstated at times, it is safe to assure Simmons will not have a warm reception upon his return.
Simmons’ Experience in Philadelphia
Unlike Barkley, Sixers fans do not have the fondest memories of Simmons. The 26-year-old was selected with …read more


Mirvac has announced its plans via its social media account to cease trading at Toombul Shopping Centre after considering the financial impact of the extensive flood damage earlier this year.
Toombul Shopping Centre located in Brisbane’s northside was completely flooded during the rain fall in February 2022. Mirvac announced that the entire centre was fenced off on 11 March and closed for up to 8 months while the damage was assessed for structural and electrical issues in the shopping centre. The centre was partially open to store owners to grab personal items and clean up the mess.
Amid growing speculation about the shopping centre’s future during the lengthy delay, Mirvac made the decision on 18 May 2022 to email the remaining existing tenants to terminate their leases (effective immediately).
A spoke person for Mirvac via its Toombul Shopping Centre Facebook page broke the news to its loyal customers and the decision has taken the community that frequent the shopping centre by surprise, causing a stir of ideas and theories about the future of the site.
“we provided an update to our valued retailers and team members. Following careful consideration of a number of factors including the extent of damage, the risk of future flooding, and the importance of certainty for our partners, we have made the difficult decision not to reinstate the centre to how it was prior to the flooding damage”.“We are now assessing the future of the site recognising the importance of continued provision of retail services for this local community”.
“No decision has been made on the future plan for the site, and at this time we do not have a timeline to resolve this, however, we will keep our partners and community informed”.“While we appreciate this has been a very challenging time, this decision has not been taken lightly and has been made in the immediate and long-term best interests of our community and retail partners”.
“This event has been a challenging situation and we want to thank our community for your ongoing support and partnership over recent events and throughout the years”.
Toombul Shopping Centre covers 10ha site with 44,000sqm of gross floor area and Vicinity Centres sold the centre to Mirvac for $228.1 million in 2016. Mirvac immediately set to work improving the centre’s community image and providing the Upstairs dining precinct, internal improvements and changes to the retailers in the centre.
When purchased, Mirvac announced that the following improvements will be occurring at the Shopping Centre. The improvements are proposed to change the current perception, increase trade and capitalise on the Shopping Centre strategic location.
– 200 new Car Parking Spaces (former David Jones Top Floor)
– New Travellator to new car parking spaces
– Restructured Ramps to Kmart and Rooftop Car parks
Changes to Major Retail Stores
– David Jones Closure
– Target Opened
– Aldi Store Opened
– Small Bunnings Store Opened
– Aldi Store Expansion
Short Term improvements
– Improve car park convenience
– New E-charge station for electric vehicles
– Enhance the retail offer
– Better align the centre with changing trade area demographic.
Medium to long term improvements
– New entertainment
– Dining precinct
– Integrated retail development capability
Updated Social Presence
– Rebrand in Style, Colours and Logo
– Facebook Account with daily posts
A blog article dated 2017, by Leonard Design Architects has surfaced in May 2022 and circulated amongst social media pages driving speculation about the vision for the site based on the shopping centre’s existence. The master plan development application was never lodged and there is no approval for the drawings over the site by Brisbane City Council.
The architects outline on the blog that the design for Mirvac was for the “transformational masterplan and new dining destination” including an additional 170,000sqm of gross floor area to the site in the form of new commercial space and residential development. The completion date was undecided and never lodged.
“The masterplan for Toombul aims to transform the existing suburban shopping centre into a new urban neighbourhood incorporating residential, office, hotels, retail, dining terrace and a transport interchange connecting the existing rail station to a redeveloped bus terminal and the Airport. The buildings, orientated in response to the climate, are set within a permeable public realm designed to connect the site with its surroundings”.
“The new dining terrace provides 11 new restaurants and a leisure destination including a mix of new local businesses and more established food offers. Arranged around an informal, flexible public space incorporating performances, play and pop up events, each restaurant has its own distinctive architectural presence to create a rich, vibrant streetscape”.
With the Toombul Shopping Centre (as known today) now not being reinstated, the future direction of the site is now to be considered by Mirvac. The best options for the site will take time to consider and a masterplan based on the current situation will require a team of experts to make the best use of the site.

The European Commission is poised to escalate a high-stakes feud with Washington Tuesday by hitting Apple with a massive tax bill, explaining the iPhone maker got illegal help from Ireland that ultimately boosted its bottom line.
The level of political risk EU Competition Commissioner Margrethe Vestager is taking could depend on the amount of back taxes it wants Ireland to claw back, which could easily total billions of euros. The case against Apple is one of several similar cases Vestager has in the pipeline.
Late last year, she ordered the Netherlands to collect up to €30 million in taxes from Starbucks. Her next target is expected to be Amazon, which may be on the line for some €400 million to Luxembourg, Reuters reported.
The trend has prompted threats from the U.S. Treasury Department, which released an unprecedented a 26-page white paper last week detailing its concerns. The Commission’s investigations could undermine U.S. tax treaties with EU member countries, it said.
Pending a court verdict after an appeal, Dublin will be required to collect the back taxes and Apple will have to reflect the sum on its financial statements.
“To the extent that such foreign taxes are imposed on income that should not have been attributable to the relevant Member State, that outcome is deeply troubling, as it would effectively constitute a transfer of revenue to the EU from the U.S. government and its taxpayers,” the U.S. Treasury said in a white paper released Wednesday.
The Commission tried to downplay the politics.
“There is no bias,” European Commission spokeswoman Lucia Caudet said. “All companies, no matter their nationality … should pay taxes in line with national tax laws.”
It’s unclear for how much Apple will be on the hook. The top estimate was from JPMorgan Chase at about €17 billion, but Vestager’s previous calculations have seemed more like cattle prods to get national politicians to reform corporate policies.
Ireland and Apple have said they will appeal the decision, but pending a court verdict Dublin will be required to collect the back taxes and Apple will have to reflect the sum on its financial statements.
Apple declined to comment Monday evening, but reiterated its past position that it pays all required taxes in the countries where it does business.
Ireland has the lowest corporate tax rate in the EU, a mere 12.5 percent, and far below America’s 35 percent rate. The deal Apple got from Dublin in 1991 concerns two companies: Apple Operations Europe and Apple Sales International. These are described as being “incorporated” in Ireland but not resident, according to the Financial Times.
The high U.S. tax rate is one of the reasons for corporate America’s offshore cash hoards. According to Moody’s, a credit-rating agency, the offshore balance for all U.S. companies now totals more than $1.1 trillion, with the largest treasure chests belonging to Apple, Microsoft, Google, Cisco and Oracle.
In every state aid case, Vestager has argued these pacts give companies a financial edge over competitors and violate EU rules. She also has stressed that she has gone after European companies too, including Fiat, German chemicals company BASF and Belgium-based brewer Anheuser-Busch InBev.
Other multinational corporations have been reviewing their existing tax agreements with European countries to try to figure out their exposure. To frustrated U.S. corporations, it appears no one but the EU is authorized to make a final decision, throwing rulings they thought were ironclad into limbo.
Ultimately, American officials’ main point is that the money involved belongs to the United States. In a February letter to Commisson President Jean-Claude Juncker, Treasury Secretary Jack Lew argued that American companies’ decision to hold money overseas in order to defer their U.S. tax payments doesn’t give European countries “the legal right to tax this income.”
“U.S. multinationals generally do not conduct the cutting-edge research and development that creates substantial value in the European Union, and as a result, comparatively little of their income is attributable to their European operations,” Lew wrote.
Critics of corporate tax maneuvers contend that Apple is avoiding U.S. tax, the subject of a 2013 Senate investigation. Commission competition official Karl Soukup has thanked U.S. lawmakers for that inquiry: “A very important source of information – and we should be grateful to the U.S. for this – were the public hearings in the U.S. Senate about Apple,” he said in February during a tax conference in Washington.

In the clothing industry there are three main types of dyes used;
Conventional dyes - synthetic, chemical rich dyes
Low impact dyes - synthetic dyes designed to give the same color palette as conventional dyes but without the use of certain
harmful chemical and metal compounds
Natural dyes - dyes made from natural materials directly from the earth or the fruits of the earth
Over the past 10 years we have been on a mission to source natural dyes within Nepal, and have had some success, although on a small scale. Consequently we use both natural dyes and low impact dyes in our clothing production.
Low Impact Dyes
The low impact dyes we use are 'azo free' dyes. The azo chemical in dyes has been found to contain toxic compounds ranging from chlorine bleach to known carcinogens.
Although still legal in Australia, we made the decision very early on to go above and beyond what was simply required of us. We believe in minimizing harm to both the planet and our customers and decided to use only dyes which had this azo chemical removed.
The other fantastic benefit of using azo free dyes is that they have higher absorption rates into the clothing (greater than 70%), which means less chemical and grey water runoff into the environment.
We use natural dyes such as tumeric, mustard, onion skin, madder root and indigo in some smaller collections within our larger collections. The colour range using natural dyes is limited and the colours themselves are more muted, however the benefit (and beauty!) they provide far outweighs this small inconvenience.
Natural dying is a small area of expertise within Nepal, and without exception the artisan dyers are all women working in their own businesses and employing other women from their local community. It is often performed in rural areas where the materials can be collected and gathered in abundance, and provides positive impact for rural economies.
Interview with Shanti
Please meet Shanti, the woman behind the small business Kakani Himalayan Natural Dyes, our natural dyeing partners in Nepal. We had just received a new shipment of our stunning hemp throws, this time dyed using tumeric, and as always I was in awe and wanted to tell you all a little bit more about her and how her business evolved.

LOS ANGELES — After too many years away from “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” Larry David pronounces himself satisfied with the new season, which he said is just like previous ones, and glad he did it. That’s pretty good — no, very good — on several fronts.
First, it means the blunt-trauma insults that David delivered for eight seasons on the HBO comedy are undiminished, as is the show’s willingness to milk any subject for laughs, from sex to ethnicity to illness. Second, he’s inclined to keep the revival going, and without such a lag.

“I would say leaning toward it,” David said. “If there are more, it’s not going to be five years. … It’s too long. I wouldn’t want people to wait that long.”
And third — but who needs another reason? We’re just happy that “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” a platform for David’s grievances for crimes against humanity (read: Larry David) is back at 10 p.m. EDT Sunday for the first time since 2011, and unaffected by time.
