Crimes Legislation Amendment (Powers, Offences and Other Measures) Bill 2015; In Committee
Labor will be supporting these amendments. The Abbott government has continued to accuse Labor of not putting up a fight against organised crime because of our successful amendments to the Crimes Legislation Amendment (Psychoactive Substances and Other Measures) Bill 2014 which removed mandatory minimum sentencing for the trafficking of firearms into Australia, and this simply is not the case.
Back in 2012, Labor introduced legislation that would have increased the maximum penalty for firearm trafficking to life imprisonment. That would have made it the same as the maximum penalty for drug trafficking, and our position in this case is consistent with that position taken in 2012. While Labor supports the government's intentions to protect the community from gun related violence, we urge the Abbott government to adopt a similar sentencing regime in relation to the proposed firearms trafficking offences. This would send a strong message to serious criminals but avoid the issues associated with mandatory minimum sentences.
The Australian Labor Party maintains its position that the introduction of mandatory minimum sentences for those convicted of firearm trafficking offences should be avoided. We note that the provisions have already been considered and rejected by this parliament, and that the government has failed to justify the need for such provisions.
The Senate Legal and Constitutional Affairs Committee received evidence from a number of submitters who strongly oppose the introduction of these amendments. The Law Council of Australia referred to a number of unintended consequences of mandatory sentencing, which include undermining the community's confidence in the judiciary and the criminal justice system as a whole. For Senator Brandis's benefit—although he is not in the chamber at the moment—I should perhaps reiterate that point: the Law Council of Australia were concerned that this approach would undermine the community's confidence in the judiciary, one of Senator Brandis's principle concerns.
The Australian Human Rights Commission noted that these amendments give rise to the potential for injustices to occur, and run counter to the fundamental principle that punishment should fit the crime. We also note the concerns previously raised by state prosecutors who believe that these provisions can lead to unjust results and impose a significant burden on the justice system. In the committee hearings I questioned the DPP and asked, 'Can you not find some justification for this?' And really all they could allude to was that it was government policy, with no justification.
While there is no evidence that mandatory sentencing laws have a deterrent effect, there is clear evidence that they can result in injustice because they remove the discretion of a judge to take into account particular circumstances that may result in unintended consequences. In addition, mandatory sentencing removes any incentive for defendants to plead guilty, leading to longer, more contested and more costly trials.
Labor supports the intention to protect the community from gun-related violence. We do not support the introduction of mandatory minimum sentences. While there is no evidence that mandatory sentencing laws have a deterrent effect, there is clear evidence that they can result in injustice because they remove the judge's discretion. We have consistently urged the government to replace the imposition the of mandatory minimum sentences for firearm-trafficking offences with increased penalty provisions, with particular reference to the reforms proposed by Labor back in 2012.
Senator Lazarus's proposal to increase the maximum penalty for firearms to 20 years does send a strong message to serious criminals but also avoids the issues associated with mandatory minimum sentences. The proposal is consistent with the most serious firearm offences in most states and territories, and for these reasons we will support Senator Lazarus's amendment.

What is CBD?
CBD or Cannabidiol is a chemical that produces in the cannabis plant in some countries also known as marijuana or hemp. There are over 80 chemicals that have been identified in the plant and can be used in health and wellness. However, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the major ingredient in marijuana. This can have adverse effects on the human body if taken in high amounts. In CBD products, there is a low amount of THC compound which can’t directly affect the human nervous system badly.
What are CBD Gummies?
In simple words, CBD gummies are edible CBD. A gummy which contains a therapeutic compound comes from the marijuana plant called CBD Gummies. These gummies contain a different range of flavors. These are widely used in pain management, anxiety, and seizure disorder.
Before buying any CBD product you should always check the type of gummies. If you don’t want to harm yourself always choose the best CBD gummies. The variations in CBD gummies are:
Full-spectrum CBD – This type of CBD gummies contains phytochemicals that are produced naturally in the cannabis plant. This might include terpenes, cannabinoids, and high traces of THC. This compound in gummies produces “HIGH” effects.
Broad-spectrum CBD – This type of CBD gums contains all phytochemicals that are good for calming effects. However, these gummies are cleaned from any traces of THC.
CBD isolate – This is the purest form of CBD. It contains 99% pure CBD without any phytochemicals.
Uses of CBD Gummies
CBD gummies are widely used to treat pain and burning sensations caused by pinching nerves or neuropathic pain. It can also help to reduce inflammation. CBD gummies for pain management also include turmeric and ginger which help to rebuild nerves. So, they are equally effective for pain management and recovery of muscles and nerves.
Anxiety disorder is one of the most common anxiety disorders in the United States. According to a survey, more than 40 million adults are affected. CBD gummies for anxiety can help you to treat anxiety and depression. Chemicals in these gums will make you feel relax and change your mood.
You don’t need to take antidepressant pills anymore. These pills affect the brain’s ability to perform functions. However, on other hand, CBD gummies for depression can work as antidepressant meds. These gummies produce calming effects on the brain, as a result, you feel more relax and happy.
Can CBD gummies get you high?
Legitimated gummies should never make you high. As you know, brands that make the best CBD gummies are approved by Law agencies are above the health mark. These products contain a low or minimum amount of THC which is unable to make you feel high. However, if you buy cheap or full-spectrum CBD products, these products can make you “high“.

At the Valles Caldera Runs Marathon on Saturday outside of Los Alamos, New Mexico, a woman was attacked by a bear at the 23.5-mile mark of the race.
Karen Williams, 54, survived by playing dead, and posted about her ordeal on the race’s Facebook page.
“There was some sort of seep or pond or mucky area at the top of that little hill, and when I topped it a bear was charging me,” Williams wrote. “She was about 15 [feet] away.”
More From Runner's World
The race, which also has a half marathon and 10K, drew 255 runners to the three events, which traverse the rugged canyon areas in the Valles Caldera National Preserve just below Redondo Peak. According to race director, Kris Kern, bear sightings are not a rare occurrence at the event, but wildlife has never previously interfered with the runners.
“We were at the finish line, and we got a text from another runner, just saying runner injured in Redondo Meadows,” Kern said in a phone interview with Runner’s World. “But at that time we had no idea how serious it was.”
Shortly after, Kern received another text that was much more specific: There had been a bear attack.
Although cell phone service on the course was spotty, runners who found Williams out on the course were able to reach 911.
Williams recalled in her post the moment the bear approached. “I raised my arms and yelled, “No!” then saw the cub. Then I was on my a-- and being raked with claws and bitten,” she wrote.
Williams did not immediately respond to a request via Facebook for comment from Runner’s World.
She wrote she suffered a fractured right orbital bone and lacerations to her eyelid, eyebrow, and left arm. She thanked the first runners who found her and helped her get aid.
“The running community is amazing,” Williams said.
Kern points out the race was held with a permit from the National Park Service, which entails a safety review and an evaluation of the impact of the race to the land, trails, and all wildlife in the area. The trails that the course follows are well known.
Williams posted a photo after the attack. Kern says she is recovering.
“I saw Karen last night and she is doing well. She’s eager to get out running again,” Kern said.

A solar-powered pump is a pump running on electricity generated by photovoltaic panels or the radiated thermal energy available from collected sunlight as opposed to grid electricity or diesel-run water pumps.
A photovoltaic solar-powered pump system has three parts:
• solar panels.
• the controller
• the pump
Solar water pumps are specially designed to utilize DC electric power from photovoltaic modules. The pumps must work during low light conditions, when power is reduced, without stalling or overheating. … A submersible pump is one that is lowered into the water. Most deep wells use submersible pumps.
Solar-powered water pumps save energy and have a zero fuel cost as they use free sunlight. They also have the advantage of requiring no electricity to operate. Compared to other types of pumps, solar-powered pumps are long-lasting as they are durable and highly reliable.
The Solar Perimeter Security Electric Fence system is a modern-day alternative to conventional methods of fencing to protect your crops & property. Electric Fence is an effective way to reduce losses caused by animals.
When an animal or human being comes into contact with the electric Fence, they receive a sharp, short, painful but safe electric shock. The shock does not cause any physical damage. The electric fence acts as a strong psychological barrier as any intruder avoids coming into contact with the electric Fence once they experience the shock. After a period of conditioning, the mere presence of the fence acts as an effective barrier even if it is not powered ‘ON’.
An electric fence can be made to detect a fault on the fence like shorting or cutting of the wire due to tampering on the fence with the Alarm system.
Electric Fences can be built alongside existing fences except in case of barbed wire fences.
• Existing posts can be made use of provided the corner/end poles are strong.
• The shock does not physically harm animals or human beings.
• The Solar Electric Fence System conforms to National and International Standards.
• The Solar Energizers are tested by ETDC, Govt. of India.
SOLAR GARDEN LIGHTS
A solar lamp also known as a solar light or solar lantern, is a lighting system composed of an LED lamp, solar panels, a battery, a charge controller and there may also be an inverter. The lamp operates on electricity from batteries, charged through the use of solar photovoltaic panels.


Filipino singer-songwriter Syd Hartha has shared an R&B-tinged single ‘3:15’ featuring rapper Kiyo.
The new track dropped on major streaming platforms via Sony Music Philippines on Friday (November 25). It will be included in an upcoming EP by Hartha, which will be produced by Brian Lotho. Featuring Hartha’s signature soft vocals alongside soulful acoustic guitar lines and laid-back percussion, ‘3:15’ follows last October’s ‘kung nag-aatibili’, which saw Hartha returning to her stripped-down folk-pop roots.
Meanwhile, the visual for the track, produced by Sony Music and production house Lunchbox Presents, sees both artists singing separately in retro-styled and intimate household settings while reflecting the song’s lovelorn mood.
Watch the music video below.
According to a press release, the track was inspired by the reflective moods stirred in early hours of the morning. The track’s Filipino lyrics touch on being in the perpetual embrace of a significant other.
Syd Hartha’s latest single arrives nearly a month after she teamed up with former Munimuni frontman Toneejay for the latter’s new single ‘Bawat Piyesa (Secret Verse version)’. They reimagined the Munimuni fan-favourite as an ambient track, assisted by Ang Bandang Shirley singer-songwriter and producer Ean Aguila.
Meanwhile, Kiyo shared his latest single ‘Harana sa Sarili’ earlier this month, a song taken from his upcoming debut album.
The 20-year-old rapper had said the forthcoming album will contain 15 tracks including collaborations with fellow musicians YZKK, Shortone, Space Moses, and more.

A commute time of 45 minutes or less is a top priority in deciding where to live, according to a survey conducted for the National Association of Realtors and Smart Growth America, a coalition of 100 nonprofit organizations focused on metropolitan expansion and its impacts on the environment, quality of life and economic conditions. Easy freeway access and walkable communities are also important factors in deciding where to live, the study found.
About 1,130 adults 18 and older participated in the survey, which was conducted from Aug. 26 to Sept. 6. The margin of error for the survey is plus or minus 3 percentage points.
About 79 percent of respondents said that commute times of 45 minutes or less were somewhat important or very important factors in deciding where to live. About 75 percent said easy highway access was important, 72 percent said a walkable community is important, 65 percent said it is important to live in a community with people of all ages, 60 percent said it is important to live in a place that is away from it all, 57 percent said it is important to have a large house on more than one acre of land, and 51 percent said it is important to be within walking distance to stores and restaurants.
Also, 46 percent said it is important to be within walking distance to schools and public transportation, 40 percent said it is important to be within walking distance of places of religious worship, and 26 percent said it is important to live “in a place that’s at the center of it all.”
Minorities are even more likely than other Americans to choose a walkable neighborhood that has a shorter commute, with 59 percent of women, 57 percent of Hispanics and 78 percent of African Americans selecting those communities over communities with bigger lots and longer commutes. Most survey participants said they favored the attributes of walkable, smart-growth communities over sprawling communities with longer commutes.
With costs being equal, a smart growth community was described for purposes of this survey as a mix of apartments, condos, townhouses and single-family detached houses on various sized lots with sidewalks and places to shop, eat, read and go to school within walking distance. It was also described as community where public transportation is nearby and a one-way commute is less than 45 minutes. A sprawling community was described as one in which there are only single-family detached houses on one-acre lots, there are no sidewalks, and places to shop, eat, read and go to school are within a few miles by car. Public transportation such as train, bus or light rail is distant or unavailable and a one-way commute is 45 minutes or more.
Among people planning to buy a home in the next three years, 87 percent place a high importance on a shorter commute as their top priority. Asked to choose between two communities, about 60 percent of prospective homebuyers chose a neighborhood that offered a shorter commute, sidewalks and amenities like shops, restaurants, libraries, schools and public transportation within walking distance over a sprawling community with larger lots, limited options for walking and a longer commute. Those who are in the market to buy a home are also more likely to say they want to be in or near a city as opposed to living in a farther out suburb or rural area, the survey found.
Walt McDonald, broker-owner of Walt McDonald Real Estate in Riverside, Calif., and president of the National Association of Realtors, said, “This survey shows that most Americans prefer to live in walkable communities with shorter commutes, sidewalks and amenities close by — a trend Realtors have seen first-hand. Smart growth communities are the wave of the future, especially since they’re heavily favored by prospective buyers and minorities, who represent a growing share of the home-buying market.”
Don Chen, executive director of Smart Growth America, said, “As communities around the country grow, they’re faced with the choice of where, and what, to build next. In too many places, the choices are being made for them by a system of outmoded regulations that make it hard to build great, affordable neighborhoods in the places where people need the housing, and easier to do it in distant locations. The survey makes clear that this will change if we are to meet this growing demand.”
Americans place a high value on limiting their commute times and are more likely to see improved public transportation and changing patterns of housing development as the solutions to longer commutes than increasing road capacities. Half of all Americans chose improving public transportation as the best option to solving long-term traffic problems. The survey found that approximately one-third believe that developing communities where people do not have to drive long distances is the best answer while less than 20 percent believe the answer is to build new roads.
Americans also want government and business to invest in existing communities before putting resources into newer communities farther out from cities and older suburbs, the study found. Nearly 90 percent want their states to fund improvements in existing communities over incentives for new development in the countryside.

SPECTRE is the world’s first financial trading platform without brokers,.
with a built-in decentralized pool of liquidity, which acts as a guarantor in all trades. The platform is going to provide access to trading currencies and CFD (derivatives). The liquidity pool is initially funded through the initial coin offering (ICO), and tokens are distributed between investors in exchange.
Every trading deal is regulated by smart contracts —
brokers are completely removed from this process. In other words, the SPECTRE liquidity pool system belongs to the token holders who initially invest in the ICO, and thus have a part of SPECTRE profit on an ongoing basis.
The project will have two types of tokens in circulation, SPEC-D/SPEC-U, each trading separately on different exchanges. One of the tokens pays dividends, which are calculated by increasing the pool of liquidity and the buyback program. The second is a utility token required for obtaining privileges on the platform, such as higher payments, access to all assets and trading tools, as well as to the Spectre Academy of Financial Education.
The project’s CEO is Karan Hemani, a serial entrepreneur with diplomas from the London School of Economics and extensive experience in finance. His career includes work in such companies as JP Morgan Chase and Goldman Sachs. In addition to the project leader Hemani, the team includes specialists in financial engineering in stock and option markets and Forex.
The main Spectre sale started on November 17th and will end on December 12th, 2017, or upon reaching the Hard Cap, which is $30 mln. According to the project website, about $7.5 mln were raised during the Pre-Sale.
The potential short-term growth of the project and the token is more likely positive; there is a demand for tokens. It is more likely neutral in the long term, as the project will have to face a tough market competition in the field of decentralized exchanges. The obvious benefit is the potential for demand from traders, due to the absence of a broker, a huge industry and market capitalization, a powerful team — a corporation, a ready-made product (public alpha was released in Q3 2017, where users can trade on demo accounts, public beta version with the testnet integration is to be released in Q4 2017). However, due to the use of the Ethereum network and the projected huge number of users, the platform may experience delays.
The Token Fund team is not going to participate in this ICO. The risks of long-term investment are that the project is going to operate in a highly-regulated industry — trading financial instruments. Spectre will need to obtain necessary licenses and permits in each country before allowing the citizens of the countries to trade. This jeopardizes the implementation of the road map within the established deadlines.

One of the key messages of the World Circular Economy Forum (WCEF) 2019 is that governments should collaborate more in the transition to circular economy. 'For most countries their economies are too small to be self-sufficient in circularity. In order to have full circularity there’s a need for co-operation across borders,' said Elliot Harris, UN Assistant Secretary General and Chief Economist.
Organised on 3-5 June 2019 in the Finnish capital Helsinki the event brought together approximately 2,000 business leaders, policymakers and experts to present the world’s best circular economy solutions for governments, industries, businesses and citizens. WCEF 2019 had a strong emphasis on strengthening the circular economy transition. This can be done by increasing investments into circular economy businesses, adopting new technologies and making significant regulatory changes.
Here are the main highlights of the event:
Creating the policy framework
Circular economy should become the very core of economic and competitiveness policies, both at national and regional level. In particular, the role of circular economy roadmaps and strategies is essential in achieving common understanding of the need for such economic transition, in engaging different stakeholders, including businesses, and in removing obstacles to its implementation.
This acknowledgement is well reflected in the stock of good practices of Interreg Europe projects. For example, the good practice from Finland 'Regional road map towards circular economy' identified by BIOREGIO project is a positive example of translating national circular economy priorities to a regional context by creating a joint regional strategy with a bottom-up approach.
The Finnish Roadmap to Circular economy mentioned as one of the inspiring examples at the event, was also identified as a good example by the Interreg Europe SYMBI project. The roadmap includes descriptions of the essential circular economy focus areas to which Finnish stakeholders have already committed. These include a sustainable food system, forest-based loops, technical loops, transport and logistics, and joint actions.
The role of cities in leading the change and acting as platforms for innovation and business development in the circular economy was also discussed. London Waste and Recycling Board (LWARB), presented the programme Resource London that supports London’s local authorities in addressing challenges related to reducing waste, increasing recycling and implementing circular economy agenda. LWARB is a partner in Interreg Europe CircE project that is focusing on regional actions supporting steering economy towards a circular model.
Circular innovative solutions
The adoption of innovative solutions was discussed as a way to accelerate circular business models in companies. Special emphasis was put on finding circular and bio-economy solutions to plastics: the way plastics are currently produced, used and discarded harms the environment and too often fails to capture the economic benefits of a more 'circular' approach. The gravity of plastic waste is at the core of the EU Strategy for Plastics in a Circular Economy which takes a systemic, life-cycle approach to the plastics value chain. The recently funded Interreg Europe PLASTECO project will focus on addressing plastics waste The way regional policies can stimulate businesses to move away from the “Take-Make-Dispose” model and become more circular was at the core of recent events organised by Interreg Europe Policy Learning Platform: a webinar on circular business models and a thematic workshop on industrial symbiosis.
One of the key messages the WCEF2019 sent to the EU is that Europe should show global leadership on the circular economy. 'Europe wants to lead, and there is strong public support from EU citizens' said Karmenu Vella, European Commissioner for the Environment, Fisheries and Maritime Affairs.

It doesn’t really matter where you start your Central Europe itinerary. Any of the capital cities in Central Europe often have great flight deals however if you have flexibility than the German capital, Berlin, would be where I would kick things off!
There are so many cool things to do in Berlin including explore the famous alternative scene and gazing at Berlin’s famous street art that I would suggest spending at least 4 to 5 days in the German capital. Whilst I don’t think you can ever spend too many days in Berlin, 4 to 5 days should give you enough time to get a great feel for the city as well as exploring some of the historical sites.
After Berlin, hop on a train (you can book tickets in advance using Omio!) for a couple of hours and visit Dresden for 2 days. Spend one day in Dresden exploring the rebuilt Old Town that was destroyed in WWII and your second day exploring the alternative area of Neustadt.
Where to Stay in Berlin
Sunflower Hostel – located in trendy Friedrichshain is a great affordable option in Berlin and is close by to many great restaurants, bars, cafes and street art! They offer both dorms and private room. Click here to check their availability
Grimm’s Hotel – This modern hotel is located in the Mitte neighbourhood and within a 5-minute walk of the underground train station so you can easily get anywhere in the city. Rooms are spacious and can accommodate couples or families with the option to include breakfast in the daily rate. Click here to check their availability

Central Europe Itinerary Week 2: Czech Republic
From Dresden, you can take a direct train to Prague, the Czech capital. Whilst Prague is certainly firmly on the tourist trail these days, it’s still worth stopping here for about 3 to 4 days if you haven’t visited before. This will give you enough time to not only explore the main sites such the Old Town & Prague Castle but also get a bit off the beaten trail and explore outer suburbs such as the alternative Žižkov district.
After Prague, spend 2 to 3 days exploring some of the smaller Czech cities such as Brno or Olomouc. My favourite of those two is certainly Olomouc, which offers travellers an Old Town as beautiful as Prague’s but without the tourists. Olomouc also has a thriving student population which ensures there are plenty of affordable places to eat and drink in the city!
Where to Stay in Prague
Hostel Lipa – a small family-run hostel in the Zizkov Quarter that makes for a great base for exploring Prague. The staff make a real effort to share insider tips on the city and they also have affordable private rooms. Click here to check their availability.
Grand Hotel Bohemia – One of the best-rated hotels in Prague, they have a range of stylish and elegant rooms and are located in the heart of the Old Town. There is a restaurant on-site and breakfast is included in the daily rate. Click here to check their availability

Miss Sophie’s Hotel – An excellent boutique hotel in a renovated house that offers a range of private rooms suitable for couples and families. There is the option to include breakfast in your daily rate and the staff can help organise your time in Olomouc. Click here to check their availability.

Central Europe Itinerary Week 3: Slovakia & Hungary
From the Czech Republic, a Central Europe travel itinerary will often suggest heading to Vienna, however, as this is one of my least favourite cities in Europe and not as budget-friendly as other countries in the region, I suggest spending the next week in Slovakia and Hungary.
Consider spending a day or two in Bratislava, the Slovak capital before heading to Budapest. Similarly to Berlin, there are so many cool things to do in Budapest that I suggest spending at least 4 days in the Hungarian capital. This will give you enough time to check out the historical Buda side, party at one of the famous ruin bars, explore the thriving Pest side and slowly begin to understand why Budapest is truly a paradise for backpackers on a budget.
If you have an additional couple of weeks on your trip, consider detouring south from Budapest and exploring the undiscovered city of Pecs before adding on one of our suggested Croatian itineraries! Otherwise, from Budapest head back north into Slovakia and spend a 2 to 3 days getting in touch with nature while basing yourself in Ždiar in the Tatra Mountains.
Where to Stay in Budapest
Butterfly Home Danube – A lovely boutique hotel located close to the banks of the Danube on the Pest side of the city. They offer a range of private rooms with breakfast included daily. Click here to check their availability

Where to Stay in Zdiar
Ginger Monkey Hostel – one of the reasons to travel to Zdiar is to stay at this hostel! There are only a handful of beds here however that means you’ll get to know everybody staying here quickly and enjoy the homely atmosphere. There’s also a delightful dog named Wally! Click here to check their availability
Central Europe Itinerary Week 4: Poland
From Ždiar, it’s only a short bus ride to Kraków, one of Poland’s most visited cities. Whilst Kraków sees its fair share of tourists these days, I think it’s worth spending at least 3 days here to explore the beautiful Old Town as well as possibly taking day trips to Auschwitz or the Wieliczka Salt Mines.
From Kraków, spend 1-2 days exploring a lesser-known Polish city such as Wroclaw or Poznan. Both cities offer a significantly more relaxed experience compared to Kraków and it’ll enable you to see a different and relatively untouched side of Poland.
If you don’t want your trip to end just yet, consider heading east and exploring Warsaw, the Polish capital before heading to the Baltics. Otherwise, you can hop on a train back to Berlin for one last doner kebab or currywurst before ending your Central Europe tour!
Where to Stay in Krakow
Mosquito Hostel – one of the best hostels to stay at in Krakow. They offer a delicious free breakfast and nightly social activities that are a great way to meet other travellers to experience Krakow’s famous nightlife. Click here to check their availability
Q Hotel Kraków – a great mid-range hotel, located a little outside the city centre but well connected by public transport. There are a range of clean and comfortable rooms to choose from with the option to include breakfast. Click here to check their availability

PURO Wrocław Stare Miasto – A modern hotel located a few hundred metres from the Old Town Square, this is a great place to stay in Wroclaw for couples or solo travellers. There is an option to include breakfast in the daily rate. Click here to check their availability

Some ideas for a 2 week Central Europe itinerary
If you don’t have the time to take a four week trip through Central Europe, then don’t fear! You can still see plenty of this great region on a 2 week central Europe itinerary.
One option if you only have two weeks is to stick to one country and explore it in depth. You can easily spend two weeks purely in the Czech Republic, visiting off the beaten path places like Ostrava, Olomouc and the Jeseniky Mountains combined with the obligatory stop in Prague. Click here for more details on a Czech republic itinerary.
Another option is to do something in Poland. You could spend seven to ten days exploring the best of Poland, before adding a stop in Budapest or the High Tatras in Slovakia to round off your 2 weeks central Europe itinerary.
Alternatively, if it’s your first trip to the region and you want to stick to the main cities in the region then that is also entirely possible in two weeks! Why not spend 3-4 days each in Budapest, Prague & Krakow before taking your pick off one of the smaller towns in the region such as Olomouc or Wroclaw?
Exploring Germany, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Poland is the perfect Central Europe itinerary that enables travellers to have a varied trip which includes visiting large cities, exploring smaller untouched towns and getting lost in nature!
Before setting off on your Central Europe trip, make sure you have a valid travel insurance policy. We personally used World Nomads for our Central Europe itinerary however it’s important to read the policy details to ensure it’s right for you. Click here to get a quote from World Nomads!

It is gravely disappointing to fill your glass with ice cold water from the tap, only for it to taste like a mouthful of pennies. And beverages are not the only thing that is affected by bad-tasting water; soup, pasta, oatmeal, baked goods, and any other recipes that call for water will not taste as good if your water tastes bad. Fortunately, poor-quality tap water is something you don’t have to live with. There are various solutions to improving the taste and overall quality of your home’s water. Best of all, these solutions are actually affordable.
Continue reading to learn how installing a water softener can drastically improve your tap water, and additional steps you can take to make your water the best it can be.
How does water become hard? When it rains, water trickles down through the rocks, soil, and limestone, on its way to the local water table. Along this journey, rain water gathers up a variety of dissolved minerals, primarily iron, magnesium, and calcium. This groundwater is where our homes and offices get our water supplies. And although it goes through our city’s water treatment plant first, water companies do not soften water, they simply make it safe and clean for consumption. So as you can see, drinking water with these constituents would not, and should not, taste very good.
If you do not treat a hard water problem, overtime the hard mineral ions will accumulate and develop into a limescale, which is a hardened crusty film that greatly reduces the quality, performance, and efficiency of your plumbing, appliances, and more. Not only can hard water make your food and beverages taste bad, it can also cause a lot of costly problems, like appliance repairs and replacements, lack of hot water, increase utility bills, poor-quality clothing and laundry, and much more. But that’s not all; hard water also affects you’re the quality of hair, skin, and nails.
Water softeners primarily serve the purpose of eliminating hard, dissolved mineral ions from your home’s water supply, and replacing them with softer ones, like sodium chloride and potassium. See our blog, “The Basics of Water Softening” to learn the fundamental operate of water conditioning systems. This change in composition renders water softer, which means it has a drastically lower level of hard minerals. Soft water will perform much differently than hard water, providing better conditions for your plumbing systems, dishes, appliances, hair, skin, laundry, and food and beverages. See our blog, “What are the Benefits of a Water Softener?” to learn all of the advantages of having soft water.
Where to Get Trusted Soft Water Advice

We are highly trained and licensed water softener contractors that provide a wide range of commercial and residential water softener services at the most competitive prices in town.

One of my favorite things about Huatulco, Mexico, was the incredible amount of color in everything. I saw it in the birds and flowers, in the water and food, in the clothing and along the streets. From the golden sun on the deep blue water in the morning to the outrageously colored costumes worn by the resort employees in their shows at night, the area was saturated in a rainbow.
Here are some of my favorite shots of this colorful locale.
My stay in Huatulco, Mexico, was paid for by the Mexico Tourism Board but all opinions are my own.

The Waterloo City Council amended ordinances dealing with drones and the parking of recreational vehicles, trailers and construction equipment on Monday night.
The council also learned that Waterloo’s population increased by more than 1,000 residents as a result of a recently completed special census.
Public works director Tim Birk announced that the city picked up an additional 1,068 residents in the census, bringing Waterloo’s new population to 10,879.
Waterloo has just 11 more residents than its neighbor to the north. Columbia’s special census amounted to 1,161 additional residents for an updated population total of 10,868.
The increase in population means Waterloo will see additional federal and state revenue to help fund public services such as street maintenance, police and emergency medical services.
Areas counted as part of the special census include neighborhoods in and around the following subdivisions: Northwinds, Rose Meadows, Dannehold Farms Estates, Sterritt’s Run, Stoney Creek, Country Club Hills, Remington Ridge, Quail Ridge, Remlok, Bradford Estates, Ridge Road, Shady Springs, Westview Acres, Creekside Estates, Sunset Acres, Lakeview Estates, The Meadows and Silvercreek Crossing.
Due to the increased popularity of unmanned aircraft technology, commonly known as drones, used to capture aerial photos, the council amended a city ordinance on trespassing.
The ordinance now states that a person is liable for trespass to property if they knowingly attempt to capture any type of visual image, recording or other physical impression of another engaging in private, personal or familial activity “in a place in which the person observed has a reasonable expectation of privacy.”
Drones used for law enforcement, government, or private commercial purposes are exempt from this ordinance, which goes into effect immediately.
“It’s for the protection of homeowners,” alderman Steve Notheisen said. “They need their own privacy.”
With one dissenting vote, the council also addressed parking issues involving work trailers, campers and other recreational vehicles in town.
“We were getting complaints of people parking work trailers on the street and leaving them near other homes, sometimes for months at a time,” Mayor Tom Smith explained.
The amended ordinance, which goes into effect in 90 days, states that no person shall park or leave standing on any public street or alley in a residential district any commercial vehicle registered as a Class C motor vehicle and above unless it is at or near an address where business is being conducted. The same goes for construction equipment that is not being used during construction in conjunction with a valid building permit.
It will also be unlawful to park a recreational vehicle (camping trailer, motor home, travel trailer, truck camper, van camper, boat, jet ski, off-highway vehicle) upon any public street or alley within the city limits.
It will be unlawful to park any trailer not included in the definition of “recreational vehicle” that is not attached to a motor vehicle on any public street or alley. When attached to a motor vehicle, a trailer (other than a recreational vehicle) may be parked on a public street except between sundown and sunrise, according to the amended ordinance.
Alderman Kyle Buettner cast the lone dissenting vote.
Mayor Smith also announced at the meeting the city will be receiving a Governors Hometown Award on Nov. 8 for its involvement with the House of Neighborly Service. The city pays for the organization’s help line, 939-8680, and also allows the House of Neighborly Service to use the former fire station on North Main Street.
The city will also be recognized for its community service in relation to House of Neighborly Service during an East-West Gateway Council of Governments banquet on Nov. 17.

Nick Hogan, wrestler Hulk Hogan’s son, bit off a little more that he could chew over the weekend when he attempted to call out rapper Tyga for direct messaging his adult star girlfriend Tana Lea.
Tyga had replied with a “lustful eyes” emoticon, to which Nick replied with a selfie of himself and “what’s up.”
Nick captioned it “When they slide in @thetanalea’s DM’s.”
Tyga trashed the Hulk Hogan’s son accusations by then revealing it was Tana Lea who started messaging him back in 2018. It took Tyga two years to reply to the Tana DMs.
On Monday, Nick to Instagram and posted a message about getting 200 comments and he would smash an egg on his girlfriend’s head. Someone jumped in the comments and asked, “Is this her punishment for DMing Tyga?”
Nick replied “yes.”
Lea explained that she does not hold on to “sh*t that had no relevancy.”
“Clearly he meant so much that I hung on to his messages from 2018. I didn’t even remember the dude. I didn’t keep messages from 2018,” she said in the story.
Tana explained why she had replied to Tyga’s stories in 2018 – “I was single. I gave a lot of heart eye replies. I needed snap content.”
It looks like she enjoying this spotlight.

|Philippine police officers|
A member of the House of Representatives from Metro Manila filed the first bill for the revival of the controversial death penalty in support of the vow of President Rodrigo "Rody" Duterte to stamp out corruption and rampant criminality especially illegal drugs "in 3 to 6 months."
Congressman Ruffy Biazon of Muntinlupa City in Metro Manila said his bill sought to amend the law banning the imposition of capital punishment which Congress had passed in 2004.
"Filing the bill ahead will give the bill (an advantage) so it could be referred to the (appropriate) House committee and hopefully, taken up ahead in its agenda," Biazon pointed out.
Biazon was among the 90 House members who filed their pet bills on the first day of the filing on Thursday before the House and the Senate would open the 16th Congress on July 25 for a joint session to hear Duterte deliver his first state-of-nation address.
Duterte strongly urged the revival of the death penalty to strengthen his vow for an all-out war on corruption and rampant criminality especially illegal drugs which, he warned, were destroying particularly the youth of the land.
But even before Congress could act on its revival, officials said an intensified police campaign resulted in the death of more than 60 suspected "drug lords" and dealers since the May 9 election.
On Friday, police reported that at least 8 more "major" drug dealers - 6 from Bulacan in Central Luzon and 1 each from Sorsogon in the Bicol Region and Negros Oriental in the Visayas - were killed in "shoot-outs" a day after Duterte took his oath as the country's 16th president.
Duterte pressed for the restoration of the death penalty despite strong opposition from Pope Francis as well as local human rights advocates led by the Commission on Human Rights (CHR) and the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBCP). Without referring to any country, Pope Francis warned against the return of capital punishment in his recent message sent to an international conference against its revival which was hosted by Oslo in Norway.
The Philippine Congress abolished the death penalty and replaced it with life imprisonment which was imposed on "heinous" crimes like plunder, illegal drugs, murder, kidnap-for-ransom, robbery-homicide and rape.

Here’s the article: The Dystopians’ Guide to Positive Thinking was published by For Books Sake on 11 May 2012.
Here’s why I wrote it:
Misunderstandings in the mainstream media about the popularity of The Hunger Games and a deep sense of responsibility for clarifying the confusion is what got me writing this article.
The Hunger Games and other novels in the Nouveau Dystopian Wave follow in a long tradition of writing that includes Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-four and Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale. So, why weren’t they being taken more seriously?
People just couldn’t understand why young women would be reading books that imagined such a dreadful future. In their futile attempts at doing so the young readers of these books were often dismissed or patronised. The question of what draws people to read stories of negative futures is so intriguing to me that I jockied my life around enough to be able to go back to study to try and work it out in 2010. Then in early 2012 when the media around The Hunger Games was getting big I saw misunderstanding everywhere and I knew I had to do something to set it straight.
One of the reasons for the confusion is the prevalence and popularity of black and white attitude that positive thinking was always best – anything that said differently was odd and confusing. I wanted to use this polarised position on positive thinking as the basis of the article:
“In an era that tends to idealise positive thinking it is easy to assume it is ‘good’ and other ways of thinking are ‘bad.’”
I loved the idea of flipping the norm and handing out some advice to positive thinkers from the dystopian vaults – switching the advice flow for a while. I wanted to evoke the idea of Dystopians as a grouping of people – I identify as a dystopian; I think others do too; and, I think it connects us in meaningful ways. More than anything though I wanted to locate this new era of dystopian literature within the genre and give show it was as serious and meaningful as its predecessors like Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-four and Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale.
The response to The Dystopians’ Guide to Positive Thinking was really amazing.
Lots of people shared the article and commented on it around the interwebs. Margaret Atwood even retweeted it (fangirl flutter):
And, it was the most read article on For Books’ Sake for quite some time:
I can’t thank For Books’ Sake enough for getting such a long and in-depth article out there. Lots of people don’t have the guts, but this proves that it pays off.

Therapist as Life Coach by Patrick Williams
Book DescriptionThe first edition of Therapist as Life Coach, published in 2002, anticipated this trend, and since its publication it has become a standard for therapists who wish to transition or expand their practices into life coaching. Pat Williams and Deborah C. Davis have finally revised their classic practice-building book for today's therapists and future coaches. Every chapter in this second edition has been updated and rewritten, reflecting the growth of the coaching field and its increasing appeal to not only therapists, but all helping professionals. The book begins by exploring the history of the coaching movement and shows how society is hungry for life coaches. The second part of the book explains in detail the differences and similarities between coaching and therapy, discusses the coaching relationship, and considers some of the skills therapists will need to learn and unlearn in order to reclaim their joyfulness about their work. Professional transition tools such as developing and marketing your practice and honing your coaching skills are discussed at length in Part Three. The final section moves beyond basic life coaching to introduce coaching specialties such as corporate coaching, offers self-care strategies for life coaches, and peeks into the future of life coaching. There is new material throughout, including an overview of recent coaching developments, updated liability concerns, new business opportunities, and a new section on the research about coaching. Coaching gives practitioners the opportunity to break free of managed care and excessive reliance on the insurance industry and to work with a wide range of clients-specifically, those who are not suffering from mental illness but, rather, seeking to maximize their life potential. This book will help you enter this lucrative and personally enriching world with the skills and knowledge you need to build a successful coaching practice.

Jasper Edward Attlee — better known by his DJ name, berlioz — made his Denver debut at the Marquis Theater on Friday. With a line wrapping around the building — and no other artist slated to play – there was a clear sense of anticipation growing through the night. Once inside, the air was thick with the scent of fresh pizza and fans were occupying every conceivable space, spilling over railings, a madhouse to say it simply.
As fans finally settled — beverages acquired and vinyls of berlioz’s newest EP, “jazz is for ordinary people,” tucked beneath their arms — passing conversations drifted over some chill jazz pouring from the speakers, creating a vibe akin to what a New York cafe in the 1940s might have felt like. This ambient period didn’t last long as berlioz quickly hit the stage, sending a hush rippling through the crowd.
Atlee stood at a DJ booth wearing an infectious smile, surrounded by a powerhouse band featuring Grammy-nominee Sharay Reed on bass, Grammy-winner Rc Williams on keys and saxophone virtuoso Matt Carrillo. They formed an unconventional jazz quartet that gave a performance that showcased each musician’s prowess, seamlessly interweaving solos to create a captivating whirlwind of sounds. Atlee, soft-spoken – talking only twice with few words said – let his music conduct the vibe in the room, allowing the melodies to speak louder than words.
The blend of rich jazz instrumentation with the innovative sounds of new wave house was captivating, sweeping the audience into a smooth groove. Mystical, airy textures coupled with the classic house four-on-the-floor beats rocked the room. Reed’s bass provided a rhythmic swing, while Williams’s key inversions made your hair stand up. Occasional whoops and hollers for the musicians enhanced the playful performance. However, Carillo on the sax was the real stand-out, adorning the songs with warm lines pouring from his instrument like sunlight rising over a misty morning. The combination of his tone, phrasing and reverberated microphone made for a beautiful sonic experience.
Describing his sound as “if Matisse made house music,” berlioz presented tracks from “jazz is for ordinary people,” which embodies the colorful and flowing qualities of a Matisse painting. The tracks, composed with life and joy, offered a versatile listening experience. Songs like “deep in it” exuded a smokey, noir detective sound, while “la danse” delivered a mellow and floaty experience with chill dance breaks. berlioz effortlessly intertwined classic house and jazz elements, showcasing his love for both genres.
The diverse audience at the Marquis Theater demonstrated that jazz is thriving and open to innovative fusions. berlioz’s willingness to explore new wave jazz/house fusion resonates with a younger audience, bridging the gap between traditional and contemporary jazz enthusiasts. He’s opening up the world of jazz to someone who might not have tapped in otherwise. One day berlioz, the next Charlie Parker. So, rest easy, old heads. The genre is in good hands.
You can tell he is an artist who is passionate about the music he’s making and that passion translates to the live show. The energy in the room never lies and the phrase “These cats are cooking” was being thrown around left and right. For those looking to dip their toes into the realms of house or jazz, berlioz’s music and live performance offer an accessible and delightful starting point.

Finally winter has come to this Cornwall.
And it meant the season of some bugs are coming around as well.
My little boy who has got a cold is more clingy than usual, and his big brother lies down close to him all night long.
What a sweet brotherhood!
Then I made their favourite food especially for a poorly one.
Stuffed Cabbage Roll Tomato Sauce.
This is a typical Japanese home style dish and good for a winter season.
Beef, loads of vegetables and Asian herb flavours.
Get well soon by these good nutritions and lovely brotherhood.

I'd like to propose two changes to the interface code:
(1) Currently the status can be obtained by accessing
"https://server/2222/", where 2222 = task id. We should support URLs
without the ending '/' - just "https://server/2222".
When doing this change I also updated the URL matching in the Apache
config file, to match our task ids (numbers only).
Reasonable, the patch looks OK.
(2) Every client access to '/2222', '/2222/log',
changes the task password. I think it's ok to generate the password only
in /create, and use the same password for all GET requests. It also
simplifies the client a lot.
The password is changing because of security. I agree that we do not
really need to change it - the crash only lives a few days. The design
document mentions 22 characters long password: 62^22 ~ 2^128. At the
moment, we are using 32 characters long password: 62^32 ~ 2^190. If
anybody finds it non-secure, we can always double the length :).
The patch looks OK.
Please consider the changes for inclusion.


There are certain strange things about this band from the United States. They were founded in 2004 and played symphonic black metal with…metalcore elements. Two completely different genres were combined, but that didn’t last long. They quickly switched it to atmospheric black metal paths and they are holding on to it until now. They had two small break-ups for a few months and the changes in the line-up are constant as there have been literally dozens of musicians who came in either as permanent members or just for live shows. Now, the only member seems to be the founder and multi-instrumentalist Ken Sorceron. This one is the fifth full-length in their discography and it was recorded with the help of guest musicians.
It’s a really interesting album and Ken has done good job in this one. Despite its long total running time, almost one hour, I can’t say that I got bored or tired while listening to it. It features just seven songs, with some of them being four-five minutes and some eight, nine and eleven. There are a lot alterations in the music, as besides the traditional black metal riffing and blast beats, there are many times when they choose mid-tempo structures. The use of cello creates great atmospheres, as some melancholic melodies on the guitar while the vocals remain extreme throughout the album with some very few clean ones.
In general, this is a nice release in the atmospheric black metal scene, with very good production and compositions that are not one-dimensional as you will notice different stuff as the minutes go by. Finally, I must say something about the magnificent album cover. The artist is Mariusz Lewandowski from Poland, who has done the same for other metal bands and his work is truly remarkable. I believe that more and more musicians will start asking for his help during the next years.

This paper presents an approach to analyzing individual wave slam events to better understand the cause-and-effect physical relationships between impact loading and craft acceleration response. These motions are of interest because a broader awareness and a better understanding of loading phenomena and response mechanics could lead to improvements in model-scale to full-scale comparative evaluations, computer simulation validation, or design applications that address multiple factors associated with seaworthiness, including hull design loads, component ruggedness, and crew or passenger comfort and safety.
