Chasing these payments might seem like navigating a maze, but with the right strategies, it can be a smoother journey. Here are some user-friendly pointers on how to master the art of chasing those elusive payments:
1. Clear and Polite Communication:
Start with a friendly reminder. A courteous email or call, clearly stating the invoice details and politely requesting payment, sets a positive tone for communication.
2. Set Clear Payment Terms:
Make sure your payment terms are crystal clear from the beginning. Include due dates and consequences for late payments in your contracts or agreements.
3. Automate Reminders:
Leverage technology to your advantage. Set up automated reminders a few days before the due date and follow up promptly if payment is not received.
4. Personalized Follow-ups:
Tailor your follow-ups to each client. Personalized communication shows that you value the relationship and are genuinely interested in resolving any issues.
5. Offer Payment Plans:
If a client is facing financial challenges, be open to negotiating payment plans. This flexibility can foster goodwill and increase the likelihood of receiving at least partial payment.
6. Escalate Gradually:
If initial reminders don’t yield results, escalate your communication gradually. Move from friendly reminders to more assertive notices, clearly outlining the consequences of continued non-payment.
7. Provide Additional Documentation:
Sometimes, clients may require additional documentation or clarification. Be proactive in providing any necessary information to expedite the payment process.
8. Utilize Late Fees:
Clearly communicate your late fee policy and enforce it consistently. The prospect of incurring additional charges can motivate clients to prioritize timely payments.
9. Direct Contact with Decision-Makers:
If possible, try to communicate directly with the decision-makers or individuals responsible for payments. This can expedite the resolution process.
10. Professional Debt Collection Services:
In extreme cases, consider enlisting the help of professional debt collection services. While this is a more assertive approach, it may be necessary for recovering long-overdue payments.
11. Build Strong Relationships:
Cultivate strong client relationships from the outset. A positive and communicative partnership is less likely to face payment issues, and if they do arise, they can be resolved more amicably.
12. Evaluate and Learn:
After each payment chase, evaluate the effectiveness of your approach. Learn from the experience and continuously refine your strategies for future interactions.
Remember, the goal is not just to collect payments but to maintain positive relationships with clients. By employing a thoughtful and proactive approach, you can navigate the sometimes tricky waters of chasing invoice payments with professionalism and effectiveness.

Supreme Court Chief Justice Maria Lourdes Sereno wanted to dispel notions that the forum was a show of force, but it was one in every respect.
She joined Ombudsman Conchita Carpio Morales on Wednesday, November 29, at a gathering of the Constitutional Fiscal Autonomy Group (CFAG) and told the room: “Hindi kami nagtipon-tipon dahil may problems o dinadaanang crisis ang ilan sa amin, noon pa po kaming 2013 nagkikita-kita.” (We didn’t meet today because there are problems or crises that some of us are facing, we have been meeting since 2013.)
But it was strong optics. Sereno is going through impeachment proceedings at the House of Representatives, while Morales also faces her own impeachment threat. Both of them have been challenged by President Rodrigo Duterte to resign together.
“I know it was not planned nor intended, but it has the effect of a show of force and solidarity among these institutions critical to our democracy,” said legal and political analyst Tony La Viña.
Sereno was Morales’ junior at the Supreme Court (SC).
“Justice Chit was my Division Chairperson, when I was just an Associate Justice she was chairing the 3rd Division. I cut my teeth from her mentorship. So I got some of her characteristics, I hope the positive ones,” Sereno said.
Sereno said she and Morales share the same sense of humor.
“That’s where we’re leading the men. Mas magaling ang sense of humor namin kaysa sa kanila. Palagay ko sila when they’re beleaguered, (We have a better sense of humor than them, I think that when they’re beleaguered) you don’t see them cracking jokes as often as we do,” Sereno said.
Sereno teased Morales some more: “The Ombudsman is the wittiest and the sexiest person inside the room, bar none, daig kayo ng lola niyo (she’s better than you)!”
While Sereno has appeared playful, Morales has been uncharacteristically tight-lipped of late.
Whereas before she would go as far as telling the President, “Anong pakialam niya? (Why should he interfere?)” she would settle for a smile, and give reporters short statements like, “I note it” when asked to react to the President’s tirades.
But on Wednesday, she said quite defiantly: “The Ombudsman is not subject to the disciplinary authority of the President.”
This was said in the context of Duterte’s threats to have Morales and the entire Office of the Ombudsman investigated. The Office, led by Overall Deputy Ombudsman Arthur Carandang, is investigating a complaint regarding Duterte’s wealth.
Carandang also faces a complaint filed before the Office of the President, despite a Supreme Court ruling saying the President cannot remove an Ombudsman or the Deputy Ombudsmen.
Morales reminded everybody of checks and balances, saying that the country can benefit from a “necessary degree of hostility.”
“It is a bitter pill to swallow, but it is a pill nonetheless to avoid contracting the malady of tyranny,” she said.
Then she went further: “Groucho Marx satirically describes a tyrant whose mindset follows this certain credo: ’These are my principles, if you don’t like them, I can change them’ or worse ‘these are the laws, if I don’t like them, I can break them.’”
Constitutionalist Christian Monsod was there in the room too, and he didn’t pass up the opportunity to chime in.
“The powers of the Ombudsman must surely make a president uncomfortable if he has “moist eyes” on being an autocrat, as my friend Rene Saquisag would say,” Monsod said.
War on drugs
Sereno, for her part, reiterated her message on the war on drugs.
During the first round of oral arguments in the SC on petitions seeking to declare unconstitutional the circulars relating to the war on drugs, Sereno seemed to be warning policemen about their liabilities.
She repeated that warning again in the forum: “At the end of the day, crimes will catch up with us, alam ba nila ho na maaaring kahit anong sabihin nila akala ‘yun ang tama, hindi po yun magiging defense sa mga krimen na gawa ng ganitong klaseng gravidad.” (Are they aware that even if they say they thought that what they were doing was right, it will not stand as a defense for crimes of this gravity.)
She told the heads of the constitutional bodies, among them Chito Gascon of the Commission on Human Rights (CHR) and himself a subject of Duterte’s ire: “Ngayon ang panahon na kayo ay mag-shine, dapat tuunan, dapat tulungan.” (This is the time for you to shine, for people to take notice of you, for people to help you.)
But Gascon, though his CHR was threatened with a P1,000-budget at the House level, made it about Sereno and Morales again: “Ombudsman Conchita Carpio Morales will prevail, Chief Justice Maria Lourdes Sereno will prevail, and justice in this country will prevail.“
Avengers or Suicide Squad?
The SC, Office of the Ombudsman, CHR, Commission on Audit, Civil Service Commission (CSC) and Commission on Elections (Comelec) make up the CFAG.
“The CFAG may not be Avengers of the Justice League, we may be the Suicide Squad,” joked Commissioner Christian Robert Lim, the acting chairman of the Comelec.
Of course the Comelec has had its own trials, with the impeachment and then resignation of its former chairman Andres Bautista, who is embroiled in a hidden wealth scandal.
But Sereno urged them to stay strong and reminded them of their powers.
She even called for reinforcement, as she urged Monsod to gather members of the 1986 Constitutional Commission to help them strengthen their mandates.
“Magsama-sama kayo, and ano po ba talaga ang correct description ng role nilang 5 ngayon sa system of checks and balances?” she said. (Come together and determine what is the correct description of roles of these 5 agencies when it comes to checks and balances.)
She added: “Kapag malakas ang laban ng CFAG agencies, malakas ang laban ng Pilipino.” (When the CFAG agencies are strong, the fight of the Filipino people is strong.)
So Sereno may claim it was just a routinary event, but still they made sure that whoever they were speaking with got their message. – Rappler.com

Mary and William are long time members of HomeLink having joined in 2006. They have completed 24 very successful exchanges taking in countries such as Italy, France, Spain, Switzerland, Germany and many others along the way.
Since 2006 we have exchanged our home with members from France, Switzerland, the UK, Germany, Ireland, Spain, Italy and Austria. Later this year we plan to visit Vancouver, Nantes and Sion.
Every one of our exchanges was exceptional. We met wonderful people and explored hidden gems, mostly away from the standard, and often overcrowded, tourist spots. It is too hard to pick out any particular exchange, but the two that come to mind first are our numerous exchanges with Rome and all our swaps with Switzerland.
In Rome, we were situated in a beautiful apartment, with its own roof garden, looking directly over the Tiber River. We were located a short skip from the Circus Maximus. I was training for a half-marathon at the time so every morning, before breakfast, I would run a few laps of the Circus Maximus and get inspiration from the ghosts of the past who trained (not always voluntarily) on that exact circuit. On another occasion, we were located 20 metres from Piazza Navona; famous for its Bernini fountains, live open theatre, artists, buskers and magicians. Not to mention the Gelato!
As for Switzerland, we visited the Eiger, the Monch and the Jungfrau. We had lunch in the revolving restaurant on top of the Schilthorn, with spectacular 3600 views of the surrounding majestic peaks and we skied in Verbier. We walked to the Matterhorn and hiked through the Lauterbrunnen Valley. Paradise indeed!
Home exchanging is one of the most inexpensive ways to holiday in style.
We have a large family - 4 children and a Granny. Without Homelink, it would have been prohibitively expensive for us to undertake all the holidays to such wonderful locations over the years.
The only expense we ever had to worry about was the air fares. There are no accommodation costs, no car-hire costs and none of the very expensive, and dreaded, long-term airport car-parking charges. This is because we usually swap our car with the host family’s car. I estimate that we have saved well over €80,000 on our 24 exchanges to date.
We regard home swapping as a cultural exchange. It enables us to see the real country and to meet the local people in their natural environment, away from all the unwelcome trappings of some of the more purpose-built, high–density, generic major tourist resorts.
It is particularly good when you have a young family if you swap with another family, as they will usually have children’s toys, bikes and games. You simply move, seamlessly, from your home to another home and immerse yourself into the local community.
One of the major advantages is that there is plenty of space and usually a large garden with swings, table tennis and maybe even a private swimming pool, in the exchange home. We all know too well how cramped a hotel can be, particularly if you have a large family. And you don’t have to be up too early in the morning, towel in hand, to book your pool side lounger.
In addition, the host family provides you with a list of the best places to eat, visit and explore.
Furthermore, the Homelink website – with several thousand members - offers you a window into most corners of the world. And, as you are dealing with like-minded people, the exchange process is extremely straightforward. You soon discover that other families – no matter what part of the world - are similar to your own.
Home swapping will change your perception of holiday making. But beware! Once you start, you may find it very hard to stop. It may even become a lifetime addiction. However, unlike other addictions, you will save a fortune and you will have truly, life-impacting, magical experiences.
A friend of mine once told me they would never swap their home with a stranger. He said, “I don’t want a stranger sleeping in my bed and I certainly don’t want to sleep in a stranger’s bed. I prefer to sleep in a clean hotel bed.”
When I pointed out that there were probably 200 people – probably all strangers - sleeping in the hotel bed before him and only one person sleeping in the home-swap bed, he soon realised how narrow and unadventurous his views were. That friend is now a proud card-carrying member of the Homelink site and a strong advocate of home swapping.
If you are planning to swap, I would advise you to start early. Start looking around Christmas time for the following year.
Send out 20 or 30 requests. That way, you are guaranteed to find someone who has similar plans and timeslots as you. If you get more than one taker, then you can always keep that person in mind for your next swap. Finally, as a simple courtesy, always respond promptly to any request you receive.
And remember, no matter whether you live in a garret or a gorgeous mansion, there is someone out there who will want to swap with you. Home swappers are not so much interested in the type, or size, of home you have; they are interested in your location and the opportunities your home can give them to explore your country, your city, your county, your culture and your community.
We started using Homelink when we had a large, young family. It was perfect for us and allowed us to see parts of the world, in comfort, that were not otherwise accessible to us.
24 swaps later, while our children are a bit older and we - at 60 - are both retired, we plan to explore further afield and our grown-up children may still join us. We also plan to swap more often. There are plenty of retired members who are retired, foot-loose and fancy-free who are available to swap – even at short notice. We find that retired people are also open to long-term swaps as well as weekend swaps. They are totally flexible and mostly very experienced swappers.
We also hope to swap more often in our own country, Ireland.
Home swapping: just try it, you will surprise yourself!

I tell D that I needed the break from feeling down, and that I wasn't going to think about anything that is bothering me. He's in a bit of a funk as well, so I was trying to be encouraging for the both of us. I could be sad if I let myself think too much, so the alternative was to keep myself busy with the things I need to take care of and stay occupied. So what happens the minute I stop to take a quick moment for myself? The same thing that invariably always happens, the thing I try hardest not to think about is right there staring me in the face, sort of tauntingly as if it wanted to say "You can try all you want, I didn't go anywhere. I can still make you feel like complete shit anytime I want to, so there."
So now everytime I finish a thought, there it is making me sick to my goddamned stomach. I swear, sometimes I cannot win for fucking losing. Now I'm all frustrated and my heart is in my throat, and I wonder why I even bothered getting out of fucking bed today if this is what I would end up feeling like. I tried so hard not to let this happen today, I really did.

One of the blogs I regularly read posted a link to a lady, Lisa, who makes jewelry. Her website is www.lisaleonardonline.com. One of the pictures really stood out to me. It was this one:
Now, you may be thinking "Ummm, OK...imperfect...whatever". But, when I first saw that, I saw "I'm perfect".
Then I realized that it said IMPERFECT.
And that's when it hit me. Isn't it really when we take a hard look at ourselves and say "it's ok...I'm not perfect...and that's OK" that we really become perfect? Isn't it in that moment when you let go of the notions of what a "perfect" wife/mom/daughter/sister/friend SHOULD be doing and just accept that you're doing the best you can...isn't THAT when we actually become perfect?
I don't mean perfect in the never-make-a-mistake kind of way. But more the perfect version of your true self way...the here I am, take it or leave it way. I think we spend so much time worrying about what we SHOULD be doing and HOW we should be that we forget that we ARE what we ARE. You make the choices that you make and many times those choices define us. They define our values and show the outside world what is important to us as a person. And what is right for one person can be totally wrong for another.
And THAT'S OK....
Knowing that where you are and what you're doing right now is where you need to be and what you need to be doing....THAT's perfect. Accepting today is perfect.
So, look at yourself and declare yourself IMPERFECT....because you really are PERFECT!

The travel experts at itravel2000, a leading online travel retailer, have compiled a list of top twelve vacation tips for 2012, set mainly to help Canadians travel hassle free.
1. Pack smart:
Go light! Pack the essentials in your carry-on luggage — it will help in the times when you arrive early for hotel check-in, or if your luggage is lost or arrives late. Check the weather at your destination and pack accordingly – arriving ill-equipped isn’t a pleasant thing to happen. Also bear in mind plug adaptors and purchase a universal voltage converter to avoid problems with voltage differences.
2. Airport security:
Always allow enough time for security, as it often experiences delays. Also avoid delaying yourself at security: research and don’t carry prohibited items, and remove heavy layers of clothing. Most importantly, keep your passport and travel documents close to you at all times.
3. Travelling with kids:
Research accommodation options to find out about special options such as kids” club or play area. pack hygiene and medical essentials and enough to keep them entertained. Most importantly, make sure your children know where to go and what to do if they get lost. Be sure to carry the correct documents if you are the Guardian, rather than the parent, of the child to avoid any problems.
4. Currency exchange:
Before you travel overseas, learn about the currency exchange rate in the country you plan to visit. You can use your credit card, an ATM machine, traveller’s cheques or grab it on the go at the airport, but be sure to find out about the applicable fees first.
5. Food safety:
One of the best ways to get to know a destination is to experience its cuisine. However, this can be tricky if you have special dietary requirements. If so, make sure to research your destination’s eating customs, inform your hotel, your airline, and make a sign or learn words to communicate your restrictions.
It’s important to stock up on prescription drugs and over-the-counter medications and the best way is to keep them in your carry-on luggage. Copies of prescriptions should also be packed with medications. If you are going a little off the beaten track, make sure to pack a first aid box.
7. Travel Insurance:
Travel insurance is essential and never underestimate how expensive an accident could be overseas. It also covers concerns such as illness, missed flights, lost baggage and cancelled tours. Above all, it gives you peace of mind!
8. Emergency contact:
Prepare a list of emergency contacts for family and friends, and also for yourself. Carry the contact numbers of Canadian embassies located where you are to travel; in case of a lost or stolen passport, or contact details of local doctors and hospitals in emergency.
9. Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada:
The Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada website offers travel reports, advisories, information on vaccination requirements and insights on foreign countries It is a great source for information on planning safe trips.
10. Local language:
Knowing the basics of the local language in the destination you”re visiting can be useful when you need help with directions, local specialities, etc. Learning a few words of a local language is also a great way to connect with local people.
11. Driving license: Obtain an International Driving Permit, which will allow you to drive internationally, when accompanied by a valid Canadian driver’s license. If you plan to rent a car, make arrangements from your home country in advance to avoid last-minute troubles.
12. Passports and important documents:
Make sure to scan your passports, the list of emergency contacts and other important documents, and email them to yourself. This way, if you misplace or lose any documents, they are easily accessible. Also, check the expiry dates of your passport and driving license, and renew if necessary.

"Partie de l'Amerique Septentrionale, qui comprend le Cours de l'Ohio, la Nlle. Angleterre, la Nlle York, le New Jersey, la Pensylvanie, le Maryland la Virginie, la Caroline", Robert de Vaugondy
Subject: Eastern United States
Period: 1788 (published)
Publication: Le Grand Vaugondy
Color: Hand Color
24 x 19 inches
61 x 48.3 cm
Beautifully engraved, large map of the eastern seaboard with an inset of the South Carolina coast on the same scale. The map is apparently based on the seminal map by Mitchell, published in 1755, the same year this plate was initially engraved. The mapping of the trans-Allegheny and Great Lakes regions and in the interior of New England is of particular interest, for this shows some of the earliest accurate information of these regions incorporating data from the Mitchell, Evans and Fry-Jefferson maps. This is a later state with the final line below the title "Avec Privilege 1755" removed. The large inset at upper left continues the main map from Cape Fear south through the Carolinas and Georgia to F. St. Georges. Impressive title cartouche fills the Atlantic.
References: Cumming (SE) #295; McCorkle #755-37; Pedley #469; Sellers & Van Ee #718.
Very fine impression and coloring on a thick sheet of hand laid paper with large watermarks including the date of 1788. With wide, original margins. Apart from a little light scattered foxing the map is very good to fine.

If you live in Florida, you’re probably familiar with some of oil tycoon Henry M. Flagler’s work including the Florida Keys Overseas Railroad. Back in the early 1900s, Florida was a popular winter destination for the upper crust, and some of the Florida’s most extravagant works of architecture were commissioned by Flagler himself.
Flagler College (Ponce de León Hotel) in St. Augustine and Whitehall, the impressive mansion that is now the Flagler Museum, in Palm Beach serve as reminders of his influence, as well as many monuments across the state like the Florida Keys Overseas Railroad.
These treasured landmarks remain in good condition, but even Flagler wasn’t infallible. In 1905, the industrialist decided to extend the Florida East Coast Railway beyond Miami, all the way to Key West. He hoped to profit from this more than 100-mile extension by having the best available access to Cuba and the proposed Panama Canal.
As you can imagine, the construction was difficult, dangerous, and very expensive. Three hurricanes threatened to derail the project, but Flagler pressed on. It was completed in 1912 and what had originally been referred to as “Flagler’s Folly” suddenly became “The Eighth Wonder of the World.”
In 1935, nature delivered a fatal blow when a Category 5 hurricane took out a large part of the middle section of the railroad and made it unusable. No one wanted to cover the expense to repair it, so the land was sold to the state, which soon afterward began building the Overseas Highway over salvageable portions of the structures that remained. The highway was rebuilt in the 1980s, and it now runs alongside some of the railway ruins, which Florida has converted into fishing piers and walking paths called the Florida Keys Overseas Heritage Trail.

Goldberry CAL Day 28 (I think)
The second reason is that the rows themselves are getting longer. Row 34 is up to 245 stitches. By the end of the shawl, the number of stitches per row will be over 500.
I'm still liking the way the color changes are working out, although I kind of wish the intermediate grey runs were a bit longer to make the changes a bit more gradual. As the shawl rows get longer, the changes between the rows are more abrupt and noticeable.
The rows are a bit easier, despite being longer, simply because I'm into repeats so I'm starting to recognize that "oh this is the row that does 'that'" so I'm not having to check the pattern quite as much, although I'm definitely relying on the diagrams and charts almost more than the written pattern. Even so, there's the odd mistake/mis-count that I'm having to fudge around. So far, that has simply consisted of reducing skipped stitches by one, or slipping an extra stitch into the final stitches of the previous row.
My Jenny-cat definitely approves of this shawl though.

“There’s this one pedal on [Fear of the Dawn] that I bought because it has a little decal of the Japanese anime figure and ‘vocaloid’ character Hatsune Miku on it, and my son is so into anime and all that stuff,” Jack White says, laughing.
“It’s called the Miku Stomp, by Korg, and the idea is that you play through it and, using vocal synthesis, for each note you play, Hatsune Miku sings a different syllable in Japanese!
"On the song ‘Into the Twilight,’ I did an entire guitar solo with it. So I guess I can play in Japanese now.”
Quirky and unique pedals are nothing new for White, whose penchant for peculiar pedals began with his iconic use of an original Electro-Harmonix Big Muff Pi – allied with a DigiTech Whammy pedal – during his White Stripes years.
Since then, he has designed and developed his own full line of pedals and other gadgets with small gear manufacturers, distributing them through his Third Man Records and Third Man Hardware companies, based in Detroit and Nashville, and via thirdmanstore.com.
Notable among these are the Third Man Bumble Buzz fuzz pedal, produced in collaboration with Chris Young of Vancouver-based Union Tube & Transistor; the Gamechanger Audio Plasma Coil distortion box; the deliciously weird Third Man Hardware Mantic Flex synth-fuzz; and the CopperSound/Third Man Triplegraph digital octave divider, which features three proprietary, foot-sized telegraph keys, along with an integrated effects loop.
“The Triplegraph and the Bumble Buzz are definitely the heavy hitters on Fear of the Dawn,” White says. “Everything on my current board got used at one time or another, but the Triplegraph, Bumble Buzz and Mantic Flex for sure.
“To be part of the design team for a pedal really changed everything for me because I got to finally express exactly what I want in a pedal.
"To be honest, as unique as it is, I was kind of surprised at what a big hit the Triplegraph has become. We can’t keep it in stock.”
White points to a custom version of the pedal in blue, white and black (see above.)
“On the album, this is what’s making the bass guitar sound like a guitar, or making the guitar sound like a bass,” he explains.
“It was an interesting process, where I kept checking back to whatever I had written the original riffs on.
“I might write the song with a lower-octave bass sound and then switch the Triplegraph up – flip it to the other side to a higher octave or to a lower octave.
"This way, regardless of what sound I started off on, this would make me rethink how I wanted to do it.”
White’s touring board is always evolving, but the blue-tinged array for his tour in support of Fear of the Dawn is spectacular for its visual aesthetics as well as its raw power and idiosyncratic sonic colors.
Co-designed by guitar tech Dan Mancini, it’s backed by one of Third Man’s two-level, aircraft-grade aluminum Holeyboard Pedal Boards.
It includes traditional choices, like an MXR Micro Amp boost, a DigiTech Whammy Pedal and a rehoused Russian Big Muff, alongside a gaggle of Third Man Hardware stomps, including the Bumble Buzz, Triplegraph, Mantic Flex and Plasma Coil.
There are a few rare birds, too, like a Honda Sound Works Fab Delay from Japan and a rare ’80s-era Russian-made Spektr-2 Fuzz-Wah (since replaced by a Dunlop 535Q wah), as well as a few smart utility choices, including an ISP Technologies Deci-Mate Micro Decimator noise gate pedal.
Probably not a bad idea to have it slotted in toward the end of your signal chain when you have at least four full-on fuzz destruction devices on your pedalboard.

2020 Virginia Damage Prevention Conference – CANCELED
Due to the Governor’s recent Executive Order Number Fifty-three, which prohibits all public and private in-person gatherings of 10 or more individuals through April 23, 2020, the State Corporation Commission and VA811 are forced to cancel the 2020 Virginia Damage Prevention Conference scheduled for April 20-23, 2020.
If you have reservations at the Hilton Virginia Beach Oceanfront Hotel, the Hampton Inn Oceanfront, or the Hilton Garden Inn, please ensure that you cancel those as soon as possible.


The strategist, Thomas Hofeller, was a Republican known as “the Michelangelo of gerrymandering” for his work in creating partisan districts that benefited the GOP. Files on hard drives discovered by his daughter after his death showed that he wrote a 2015 study that found that adding a citizenship question to the census would lead to more Republican-friendly congressional maps..
Files on the drives also showed that he wrote the key portion of a draft letter that the Department of Justice used to maintain, dubiously, that the citizenship question was needed to help enforce the Voting Rights Act. The Times noted that “the disclosures represent the most explicit evidence to date that the Trump administration added the question to the 2020 census to advance Republican Party interests.”
Every 10 years since 1790, the census has counted all the people in the country. The 14th Amendment explicitly states that “Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed.” The word “citizen” does not appear in this provision. The framers’ intent was clear. Apportionment was to be based on a count of all persons — whether they were citizens or not.
Not only did he urge the administration to add the question, he helped cook up the pretext that it was being done to protect voting rights — never mind that the Trump administration has not pursued any cases to protect Hispanic voters. This shady episode further politicizes the census, which is supposed to better our communities, not make some of them invisible.
And consider that the public would likely not know about Hofeller’s involvement in the census question if his daughter had not found his hard drives and given them to an advocacy group, jokingly suggesting that it might find them helpful.
It is a national disgrace that the Trump Administration appears to be using the census as a tool of voter suppression. No matter how the high court rules, there is now even more evidence that the citizenship question was a Republican attempt at a partisan power grab. That the Trump administration would follow Hofeller’s advice speaks to the disregard it has for the census, Latino voters — and our democracy.

New from Walbro is their "Improved" version of the popular GT supercar fuel pump. Walbro manufacturers the OEM pump for Ford, so you know this pump is high quality. You may be wondering how this pump is "improved" over the original OEM version of the GT supercar pump, here are a few points:
Those are some of the main differences. The pump uses the same dimensions as the OEM, so it's a direct replacement in that respect, however, it does utilize a Delphi pigtail connector where the OEM has the contacts built into the pump housing. This means minor wiring modifications will be needed in GT supercar applications, but in other applications, these modifications will be required either way. So, if you plan on building a returnless fuel system, or just upgrading your OEM returnless pump, save a bunch of cash by going with the Walbro pump versus the OEM, and you'll be getting a better pump to boot.

Berahino has been linked with a move away from the Hawthorns, with Liverpool and Tottenham the two clubs mentioned most.
Both clubs are in the market for a striker, with Berahino's name being mentioned a lot after an impressive start to the season saw him called up the England national squad after finding the net in the Premier League, on seven occasions.
Though his form has tailed off in recent months, figures of around £20 - £25 million have bandied about for the 21-year-old but according to TalkSport, the fee could be significantly less.
Their report indicates the promising forward could be available for around £14 million, and are suggesting it could be because Berahino will force a move away from the Hawthorns.
This report strikes a different tone to West Brom's twitter account who posted yesterday that any talk of a £23 million deal between them and Liverpool for the forward was a 'complete fabrication,' but there was no mention of the links with Tottenham.
There is also the added complication of Tony Pulis about to replace Alan Irvine as Head Coach at The Hawthorns, and if previous appointments at other clubs are anything to go by, Pulis is likely to have talks to at least persuade Berahino to stay at the club, until the end of the season at the very least as he gets to grips with matters in the West Midlands.
It looks as though it's going to be one of those transfers that will run and run in January. Tottenham are reportedly set to make a move when the window opens, with Liverpool aiming to hijack it, with both sides certainly two that could do with strengthening when it comes to firepower in front of goal.

In my year and a half of professional upheaval (which sounds dramatic, but for lack of a better phrase), I’ve adopted the term “recovering journalist” to describe myself.
I’ve used qualifiers like “well, I used to… or I just left…” in conversations because it feels strange to take ownership of a new job in a different sector, and one that I’m still figuring out. (Also, #partylikeajournalist still makes me laugh and there’s no #partylikeanonprofitpro site.)
But being an ex-fillintheblank isn’t the most fulfilling way to identify, now is it?
That’s why Seth Godin’s “The problem with non” strikes a chord. It starts out:
Non as in non-profit.
The first issue is the way you describe yourself. I know what you’re not but what are you?
Did you start or join this non-profit because of the non part? I doubt it. It’s because you want to make change. The way the world is just isn’t right or good enough for you… there’s an emergency or an injustice or an opportunity and you want to make change.
The message is about marketing, ultimately, but first it’s a call to embrace the role of change agent.
In order to truly feel like what I do matters, I need to get past this nonsense.
I’ve long loved this Thoreau quote because I always thought of myself as a girl who knew what she liked and what she wanted and committed to what it would take to make those things happen. (Vision of myself with a big hiking stick, plowing forward toward some goal or another.)
But for the past year, I’ve been looking every direction but forward. Back, toward what I was. Sideways, to compare myself to the people around me and try to assess my level of success. Down, because I’ve been ashamed at my bouts of uncertainty. Each of those directions stifles the imagination.
Never having transferred or changed my major in college, I think the thing that freaked me out was pausing. If I’m supposed to go confidently, what does it mean to stop and reevaluate? Should my original objective dictate my direction, or is the course set more by my ability to live by my values than check off achievements? I believe it’s the latter.
How do I solve this problem of non? Instead of fretting over whether or not I’m on the right path toward “what I want to do with my life,” I’m surrounding myself with people who make me smile and simply doing.
Then last week I went to an awesome meeting, organized by Danny Heggen. (Check out his 31 Tips for Des Moines project.) He brought together a few of his young nonprofit professional friends at Smokey Row for the kickoff of what we hope will become a kind of YP group. I met three enthusiastic people and we got started on a list of future discussion topics. The plan is to meet monthly to share ideas and best practices. It was energizing, and the first time I’ve felt like I belonged to this new-to-me world.
Camaraderie beats comparison, every time.

Common Questions about CBD
Will CBD Get you High?
CBD is an entirely different compound from THC, and its effects are very complex. It is not psychoactive, meaning it does not produce a "high" or change a person's state of mind, but it influences the body to use its own endocannabinoids more effectively.
Delta 8 CBD is a fairly new development derived from the hemp plant that reacts differently and does provide a relaxing sensation. Read more about this HERE.
What is the difference between CBD isolate and full-spectrum
Full Spectrum CBD
Uses the whole plant and contains trace amounts (less than 0.3%) of THC and other cannabinoids that might well enhance the overall CBD effect on the body.
A THC-free alternative that contains no trace amounts of other cannabinoids for those people who prefer to avoid even the most minute traces of THC.
Research studies are showing that Full Spectrum CBD carries a host of other cannabinoids, which may create an “entourage effect” that works optimally with the human body’s natural endocannabinoid system. For the sake of analogy, Full Spectrum CBD interacts with other cannabinoids much the same way vitamins are more effectively absorbed from whole foods sources than isolates.
How much CBD is in a Dropper?
With some simple mathematics, we can easily figure that out.
Being that the dropper is the tool we use to administer a CBD tincture, we need to find out how much CBD is in a single dropper. Once you know this, you can gauge how much CBD you’re taking.
So how do you figure out how much CBD is in a dropper?
Typically a dropper holds 1 ML of liquid. If you know how many milliliters are in a CBD tincture, you can use this simple formula to determine how much CBD is in its dropper:
[Total CBD in Bottle] ÷ [Number of Milliliters in Bottle] = MGs of CBD in a Dropper
For example, let’s say you have a 30ml CBD tincture that has 1500MG of CBD:
1500 ÷ 30 = 50MG of CBD per dropper
Now, if you’re proper dosage of CBD is 25MG, and a single dropper of that 1500MG tincture contains 50MG, you’d simply fill the dropper halfway.
Of course, this method isn’t 100% accurate, but it is more accurate than not measuring at all. Remember, start with a small dosage and gradually increase until you find your perfect dosage.
What should be my recommended dosage of CBD?
Estimate your dosage based on your body weight
As with most substances, individuals with more body mass will require more CBD to experience its effects. With that being said, a good rule of thumb to determine your proper CBD dosage is to take 1–6MG of CBD for every 10 pounds of body weight based on the individual’s level of pain.
For example, 20MG-33MG would be a great starting dosage for a 200 lb patient, while 15MG-25MG would be best for another who weighs 150 lb.
Not only are we all made differently, we each have our own unique history with the use of substances, medications, supplements, and other things we put in our body. Because of this, we all have different body chemistry, and this will affect how our body reacts to CBD. As R.R Noall over at Herb puts it, “what works for your friend, may not work for you.”
With that being said, it is important to first determine your initial dosage based on your weight, gauge how your body reacted to that amount of CBD, then increase gradually while continuing to monitor your body’s reactions till you find the perfect dosage that works for your situation.
What is CBD
Cannabidiol (CBD) is a type of cannabinoid, a natural chemical compound found in cannabis plants that interacts with the endocannabinoid biological system in humans and other mammals. The endocannabinoid system regulates various cognitive and physiological processes – such as mood, sleep, appetite, and pain-sensation – in order to promote homeostasis, or equilibrium in the body. When introduced into the body, CBD and other cannabinoids assist with regulation and homeostasis, which can help alleviate pain, improve sleep quality, increase appetite, and reduce stress.
As a result, CBD may ease symptoms associated with the following conditions:
- Insomnia and other sleep disorders
- Anxiety and stress
- Mood disorders
- Chronic pain
- Conditions affecting the immune system, such as cancer or HIV
What type of device or CBD Product should I use?
Vaping / Smoking - Inhaled CBD tends to enter the bloodstream faster than other forms—in as quickly as 30 seconds or less, according to Mitch Earleywine, Ph.D., a professor of psychology at the State University of New York, Albany, and an adviser to the marijuana advocacy group NORML. He is also the author of “Understanding Marijuana” (Oxford University Press). The quick action means it should affect the body sooner, which could be especially useful to ease immediate pain or anxiety, for example.
Tinctures - Tinctures are the second-quickest method to absorb CBD, after smoking, Earleywine says, typically taking about 15 to 30 minutes. The quick action could make it especially useful in treating pain or anxiety.
Topical Rubs and Balms - Topicals aren’t absorbed into the entire body, as other forms can be. That could make them safer—which could be important if you use CBD on a regular basis—considering how little is known about the long-term safety of CBD and other cannabis products.
Edibles and Pills - In some states finding CBD-infused food and drinks at a retailer, restaurant, or café can be fairly easy. At Inday, an East Indian-inspired restaurant in Manhattan, as a promotion, customers could order CBD-infused ghee (clarified butter) to be added to any dish. In San Diego, cocktail lovers can order “The Mr. Nice Guy”—a vodka and mezcal mixed drink that includes CBD—at the restaurant Madison on Park.
Kickback, a maker of bottled CBD-infused cold-brew coffees and ice teas, sells its products in California, New York, and Texas.
Gummies and caramel candies infused with CBD. These sweets may have a longer shelf life if kept in a cool, dry location, so they don’t degrade, plus they’re easy to take along with you in a bag or purse. Other baked foods, such as brownies and cookies, may have a shorter shelf life and need to be placed in a refrigerator to keep the CBD oil fresh, says Backes, an expert in cannabis science and policy.

Epicurus was an ancient Greek philosopher and sage who founded Epicureanism, a highly influential school of philosophy. He was born on the Greek island of Samos to Athenian parents. Influenced by Democritus, Aristippus, Pyrrho, and possibly the Cynics, he turned against the Platonism of his day and established his own school, known as "the Garden", in Athens. Epicurus and his followers were known for eating simple meals and discussing a wide range of philosophical subjects. He openly allowed women to join the school as a matter of policy. Epicurus is said to have originally written over 300 works on various subjects, but the vast majority of these writings have been lost. Only three letters written by himthe letters to Menoeceus, Pythocles, and Herodotusand two collections of quotesthe Principle Doctrines and the Vatican Sayingshave survived intact, along with a few fragments of his other writings. Most knowledge of his teachings comes from later authors, particularly the biographer Diogenes Laërtius, the Epicurean Roman poet Lucretius and the Epicurean philosopher Philodemus, and with hostile but largely accurate accounts by the Pyrrhonist philosopher Sextus Empiricus, and the statesman and Academic Skeptic Cicero.

On the heels on Dunson’s latest single, “Count On It,” which received over 185,000 plays across YouTube and Soundcloud, and reached number two on The Hype Machine’s popular chart, he showcases his lyrical gymnastics over Legend’s sultry Billboard hit, “Tonight (Best You Ever Had).” The song, produced by Philadelphia-bred production trio Phatboiz and co-signed by John Legend himself, is just a glimpse of the versatility fans can expect from Dunson’s highly anticipated mixtape, The Investment, which drops this summer; on which Legend makes an appearance.
In his newest remix, mashup maestro Jason Smith subtly chops up Common’s “Go” instrumental, turning it into the perfect accomplice for John Legend’s cover of “Rolling In The Deep”.

Kenton Dunson just released this amazing remix of John Legend’s cover of Adele’s “Rolling In The Deep”. He created the instrumental entirely from scratch and also threw a couple verses on it. Truthfully, I don’t think anything can top Adele’s original “Rolling In The Deep” (her voice is incredible) but this cover comes pretty damn close. Check it out.

Anything that’s called “Christian Dior Denim Flow” sounds like it must be straight superficial celebrating, but instead, it’s baller bombast laced with serious self-awareness. Coming from Kanye West and Kid Cudi, are no surprises as these guys are pretty open about their demons and perhaps Pusha T and Lloyd Banks get a little deep sometimes, but Banks drops some pain in this one. We’ve been singing the praises of these G.O.O.D. Friday get-togethers for a minute, so we’re all about meta-appreciation in one of them. Plus, Ryan Leslie rapping!

THE CD IS SET FOR RELEASE ON SEPTEMBER 21, 2010
Musical powerhouses John Legend & The Roots are presenting fans with a fiery new offering, Wake Up! The upcoming CD, being released by Sony Music on September 21, 2010, will feature soulful music from the 60’s and 70’s all with an underlying theme of awareness, engagement and consciousness— effectively telling listeners to Wake Up!
After being inspired by the recent historical Presidential election campaign of 2008, the R&B singer Legend and hip-hop band The Roots felt a need to enter the action. What started as plans for a single quickly developed into a passionate album representing change, hope and activism— not only referencing one particular moment in time, but on a larger scale, holding true no matter what the political climate may be.
The resulting album features eleven profoundly evocative songs infused with sounds of gospel, rock and reggae inflections with hip-hop influences. The album is highlighted by familiar tracks like “Wholly Holy” by Marvin Gaye and “Little Ghetto Boy” by Donny Hathaway mixed with the more obscure selections of Baby Huey and the Babysitters’ “Hard Times,” and “Hang on in There” by Mike James Kirkland.
“These songs sound so relevant now,” Legend says. “On most of them, you wouldn’t change a lyric. ‘Wake Up Everybody’ (the album’s first single, featuring contributions from Melanie Fiona and Common) has four verses—the first one is a general statement, the second is about education, third is about health care, and the fourth is about making a better environment. No editing needed.”
“When these songs were written, people were more spiritually in tune,” says Roots drummer/musical director Ahmir “?uestlove” Thompson. “It was fresh from the civil rights era and there was a feeling of hope that maybe, yes, someday we will all be free. In 2010, not so much.”
The album features one original composition, Legend’s song “Shine,” which is featured in Academy Award-winning director Davis Guggenheim’s upcoming documentary film Waiting for Superman. The song, a “Stevie-Wonder-meets-gospel” stunner, clearly demonstrates the strengths of this specific group of musicians. Wake Up! blends Legend’s expressive, thoughtful vocal interpretations with an element of funk that only The Roots can provide.
Please visit www.JohnLegend.com for an exclusive look at John Legend & The Roots’ live, studio performance of “Hard Times” and for additional information about Wake Up!
Everyone’s “going green.” We’re glad you’re taking action too! Our grandchildren and their children will thank us for living more sustainably. Let’s start now. Check out Kingston 11′s remix of John Legend’s “If You’re Out There” featuring Benks.

The 2000’s have seen impressive additions to horror cinema, including “The Ring,” the “Saw” franchise, “Orphan” and “Get Out,” and now joining those ranks is Ari Aster’s debut feature film “Hereditary” starring Toni Colette.
The film surrounds a family in the aftermath of their grandmother’s death. Colette plays a miniature artist named Annie struggling to come to terms with the loss of her mother and trying to remain stable for her two kids, Charlie and Peter. Annie feels the weight of guilt for her estranged mother’s death, feeling as if there was something she could’ve done to prevent it. The two of them had a difficult relationship, partly due to her mother’s dissociative identity disorder (DID).
As the story progresses, the audience learns of the family’s tragic history of mental illness and how it’s led many members of the family to madness and even death. Despite already being burdened by grief, Annie’s daughter Charlie dies after her head during a frantic drive home whilst going into anaphylactic shock. Similar to 1960’s “Psycho,” one of the central characters from the movie poster surprisingly dies within the first act of the film.
Hurting and looking for company, Annie befriends a woman named Joan from a support group for grieving family members who teaches her how to successfully perform a séance for her diseased daughter. Annie’s relationship with her son Peter has been tense since a sleepwalking accident years prior almost saw Annie murder him in his sleep with paint thinner and a match. Annie convinces her family to perform a séance for Charlie, which only causes further damage to the family.
From there, the plot takes a shadowy descent into terror. Reading as one long running anxiety attack, the film never loosens its grip on the audience’s fear. None of the film’s two-hour runtime seems wasted, as every minute is marked with tension and a foreboding feeling that something is creeping around the corner.
Toni Colette hasn’t shown such extreme commitment to a role since 2009’s Golden Globe and Emmy winning series “Untied States of Tara” in which she played a mother crippled by DID. The agonizingly intense emotional agony Colette faces in “Hereditary” not only makes for superior supernatural cinema, but also fictionalizes the unrelenting wrath of mental illness on the family dynamic.
While “Hereditary” is an amazing horror film for the textbooks, it also stands as a statement on how mental illness detrimentally affects family life. Annie’s disbelieving husband is no support to her and only believes she’s fabricating her issues, orchestrating a conspiracy of peculiar events surrounding the family. Annie is painted as the crazy wife and the problems she faces are belittled as all in her mind, a common reality for those suffering with any sort of mental health issues.
Disguised as a supernatural, occult horror film, “Hereditary” speaks a lot about how mental illness can set a family on fire from the inside out. And what does that mean exactly? You’ll have to wait and see.

I have installed car audio equipment for over 40 years on end off. End can see you don,t have the slightest clue what in the hell your doing, Speaker wire doe,s not have to do with it cuting out, It is because of the way you hooked your subs up, That no one can explain to guys like you in writeing,How to do it properly, Number 1, That amp is 2( OHM) Stable, You should be useing 2 (OHM) subs on it,Not 4 (OHM) subs, Take it to some one that no what in the (Hell) There doing (Before) you fry your amp.
might have roasted your speakers voice coils a little which may be sending the amp into protect mode throw a speaker on it that you know works and if it doesnt trigger the protect circuit then you probably have a blown or almost sub.
If the amp is 1200 watts at 2 ohm stable you will want to set up the speakers as parrallel and bridge the amp. That means conncect the speakers with + to + and - to -. Look at the amp connections. Usually thereare connects that look like this:
+ - + -
If yours look like this use the diagram on top. You will use the + for the left ouput on the amp to the right - on the amp. This will allow you to use all the power from the amp. Be sure to lower the gain as to not pop the speakers or amp.
The BP300.1 is a mono (1 channel) amp. You cannot bridge a mono amp. Bridging is a method of combining the outputs of 2 or more channels of a multichannel amp into a single mono load. On your amp you would connect a single sub to one of the +'s and one of the -'s (either one is OK, they are connected internally). The other pair of terminals is just for convenience, making it easier to connect, if you want to power 2 subs.
it seems rather redundant to bridge a mono amp. Unless the instruction manual states otherwise, i would assume that one speaker output is identical to the other (ran in parallel, like an A or B speaker, not like Left or Right), and you would present the amp with a two ohm load by wiring one speaker to each output. Bridging it may or may not work, but, again, it just seems redundant.

In a series of tweets, absconding liquor baron Vijay Mallya appealed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi that investigations conducted by criminal agencies should be fair, impartial and legal.
Mallya had left the country on March 3 last year and is reported to be in Britain. In November, the Central Bureau of Investigation had initiated an extradition request to bring him back from Britain through a special court in Mumbai.
He was declared a wilful defaulter by a consortium of banks, led by State Bank of India (SBI), who lent almost Rs 9,000 crore to the now-defunct Kingfisher Airlines (KFA).
The investigative agency secured a non-bailable warrant against Mallya, following it with an extradition request from the special court to competent authorities in Britain.
A local court had declared him a proclaimed absconder in November last year.

The number of people who have a disability in Canada is growing every year and comprises 22 percent of the total Canadian population. Therefore, it is crucial to be an advocate for accessibility rights so that everyone has the same opportunity to access the world around us.
Based out of Oakville, Ontario, Adam Spencer, the President (GLOBAL) of AbleDocs, has made it his life’s work to ensure a person’s ability to independently manage their own online affairs. Without accessibility focused organizations like AbleDocs, it is possible that those with print disabilities would not be able to fully access essential online documents that allow them to sign up for government programs and vaccines, access their banking and medical records, and connect with friends and family.
Adam Spencer explains how everyone can become advocates for accessibility and the changes that every online information provider can make to ensure their documents and forms are fully accessible to every visitor.
The History of Advocacy for People with Disabilities in Canada
People with disabilities have been organizing to protect their rights since 1886, when people with auditory disabilities created a consumer organization in Ontario. The Canadian Federation for the Blind advocated for pensions in the 1930s.
By the 1970s, disability advocacy was being framed as a battle for human rights. Understanding how human rights are affected by the presence of disabilities became necessary for many members of society in the 1970s and 1980s.
Causes that Advocates Can Champion
Everyone will need to join the fight against discrimination toward people with disabilities. There are several great causes that disability advocates can assist in their quest to make Canada free and open to all.
Accessibility of Transportation
Public buses and trains have been accessible to those with disabilities for many years, but today, there are more potential problems in the works. Rideshare programs like Uber and Lyft frequently discriminate against riders in Canada who have vision and hearing loss, and may require assistive equipment. As the transportation economy changes, the accessibility of rideshare services will become even more important.
Accessibility of Internet Services
This form of accessibility is of special concern. As the Founder and President (Global) of AbleDocs, Spencer has dedicated his career to making sure that Internet users worldwide can access the information they need using simple and functional tools. Online forms and documents are notorious for being unreadable for users with screen reader programs. Still, AbleDocs simplifies the process and ensures that people with low vision and print disabilities can view and respond to these forms.
Accessibility of Healthcare
Healthcare in Canada is not always as accessible to those who have a disability as it should be. Some find it difficult to get rides to doctors’ offices, and they may put off care due to logistical hassles. The presence of COVID-19 in the population also dissuaded many people with disabilities from receiving healthcare since many also have weakened immune systems.
The Canadian immigration system discriminates against people with disabilities. People who wish to move to Canada may not be allowed to do so because they may cause an “undue burden” on the country’s healthcare system. This is an unfounded prejudice against a whole population and is in need of dire correction.
How to Advocate for People with Disabilities
Some of the organizations that would-be advocates can join include the CNIB Foundation, Council of Canadians with Disabilities, Ontario’s Citizens with Disabilities, Disability Alliance BC, the Manitoba League of Persons with Disabilities, and Quebec’s COPHAN.
These organizations welcome donations and grassroots help from Canadian citizens and other interested parties. When disability advocates from all communities band together, they will be better able to solve the social and regulatory problems plaguing those with disabilities throughout Canada.
Adam Spencer founded AbleDocs because his mother, a banker, needed help with assisting staff who had print disabilities. Spencer created an initiative that could help individuals with print disabilities access PDF documents. His first PDF accessibility service was successful, but he went on to found AbleDocs in 2019 because he saw a need to change the way people create accessible content.
The Importance of Disability Advocacy
People with disabilities have been a silent minority for too long. People with disabilies need to know that they have the right to stand up and protest their treatment under the law and fight for the resources they need to enhance their quality of life.
Two of the most pressing concerns today are the inequality of transportation options and the lack of access to digital content. Spencer encourages all would-be disability advocates to thoroughly research the issues at hand and make sure that they follow their passion and do the work that needs to be done.
AbleDocs will continue to help those with print disabilities access documents and fill out forms so that they can be independent users of the Internet. Adam Spencer will continue to broaden the reach of AbleDocs and its offerings to make the digital world more accessible to all those with disabilities.

Sudanese government launches offensive in south
NAIROBI, Kenya -- Sudanese government forces have launched a massive offensive in three southern provinces, forcing hundreds of thousands of people from their homes, rebel and aid agency officials said Tuesday.
The Sudan People's Liberation Army said in a statement that mechanized infantry columns supported by helicopter gunships began attacking rebel-held villages on Saturday.
"Hundreds of thousands of civilians have been displaced. It is not yet possible to determine the number of people killed in the attack. A large number of livestock has been looted," rebel spokesman Samson Kwaje said. The Sudan People's Liberation Army has been at war with the government since 1983. Although the war often is simplified as one that pits Christian and animist southerners against Arab Muslim northerners, struggles for power and competition for control over major oil fields also fuel the fighting.
