According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 1 in every 3 adults in America has high blood pressure.
One of the keys to overcoming this potentially deadly condition, or preventing its onset, is to expand blood vessels and arteries so that blood flows more easily and with less pressure. This process is called “vasodilation” and it something than many natural compounds are uniquely qualified to do.
In a clinical study, adult volunteers who were either on the cusp of having high blood pressure, or had mild hypertension tested either an apple supplement standardized for polyphenol compounds or a placebo for four weeks. While the results were fairly low-key, there were initial improvements in the apple polyphenol group for one measure of vasodilation. It will be interesting to see how these compounds would work in combination with other polyphenols, like those from grape seed, that are known to have cardioprotective and blood pressure reducing effects in further studies.
Saarenhovi M, Salo P, Scheinin M, et al. The effect of an apple polyphenol extract rich in epicatechin and flavan-3-ol oligomers on brachial artery flow-mediated vasodilatory function in volunteers with elevated blood pressure. Nutr J. 2017 Oct 27;16(1):73.
BACKGROUND: The primary aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that an orally ingested apple polyphenol extract rich in epicatechin and flavan-3-ol oligomers improves endothelium-dependent brachial artery flow-mediated vasodilatation (FMD) in volunteers with borderline hypertension. The secondary aim of the study was to test whether the investigational product would improve endothelium-independent nitrate-mediated vasodilatation (NMD).
METHODS: This was a single center, repeated-dose, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study in 60 otherwise healthy subjects (26 men, 34 women; aged 40-65 years) with borderline hypertension (blood pressure 130-139/85-89 mmHg) or un-medicated mild hypertension (blood pressure 140-165/90-95 mmHg). The subjects were randomized to receive placebo or the apple polyphenol extract to provide a daily dose of 100 mg epicatechin for 4 weeks, followed by a four to five-week wash-out period, and then 4 weeks intake of the product that they did not receive during the first treatment period. FMD and NMD of the left brachial artery were investigated with ultrasonography at the start and end of both treatment periods, and the per cent increase of the arterial diameter (FMD% and NMD%) was calculated.
RESULTS: With the apple extract treatment, a significant acute improvement was detected in the mean change of maximum FMD% at the first visit 1.16 (p = 0.04, 95% CI: 0.04; 2.28), last visit 1.37 (p = 0.02, 95% CI: 0.22; 2.52) and for both visits combined 1.29 (p < 0.01, 95% CI: 0.40; 2.18). However, such improvement was not statistically significant when apple extract was compared with placebo. The overall long-term effect of apple extract on FMD% was not different from placebo. No statistically significant differences between the apple extract and placebo treatments were observed for endothelium-independent NMD.
CONCLUSIONS: A significant acute improvement in maximum FMD% with apple extract administration was found. However, superiority of apple extract over placebo was not statistically significant in our study subjects with borderline hypertension or mild hypertension. The study raised no safety concerns regarding the daily administration of an apple polyphenol extract rich in epicatechin.

Let’s take it back to 2014: Rochelle Jordan was poised to become the third star from Toronto to make it big. Drake and The Weeknd got all the fanfare, but Rochelle’s sound was quietly influential. Where Drake took from the 808’s and Heartbreak Kanye and Aaliyah, Rochelle combined Control era-Janet Jackson with fluorescent British house and 2-step, and the moody Toronto music then starting to take off. Then, the bullshit of the music industry intervened.
Rochelle went from next up to having to wait seven years to drop her new album, Play With the Changes. Born in Great Britain, Jordan’s family departed for Canada when she was young, but you can still hear those UK sensibilities in her music. There’s a balance of an imaginative nostalgia for the ghosts of rave past while never sounding anything less than modern. She effortlessly switches between sub-genres without losing her sense of cool. Think something like Aaliyah produced by MJ Cole and you start to get the idea. There’s a sense of introspection in her music, an artful approach to storytelling that always leaves you wanting to know more, but without ever seeming corny. She sings about her emotions with depth, but never becomes melodramatic. She’s just cool.
The song that hit me the most on Play With the Changes, the new Rochelle Jordan album released in April, was “Lay.” Produced by KLSH, it hits with hard 808’s and UK garage rhythms that would have once owned pirate radio. Rochelle writes a love letter to a Black man she is worried about. In a society where your life can be taken from you, with no rhyme or reason, Rochelle watches the news longing for her man to come home safe. On the surface, that line sounds like what it is. Rochelle wants her love to return home. The long R&B tradition of the woman longing for her dude has been in our music since Aretha told us that we made her feel like a natural woman. However, this time, it felt like there was something profoundly impactful for me. Maybe it reminded me of the women in my family always making sure that I got home safe in the police state New Yorkers live in. Or maybe it was something even deeper. Something akin to the The Five Percenter notion that the black woman is the earth. That the black women will always take care of us, honor us, and be the light in our time of darkness. That song is unconditional love for me. The type of love that a Black man searches for his whole life. The woman who loves you and wants you to come home to her, in spite of yourself, the world around you, and the tragedies that occur when you are away.
Play With the Changes is a profoundly soulful album. “All Along” boasts unabashed New Jack Swing that could’ve been the standout track on a classic Nancy Meyers romantic comedy. She doesn’t make the type of R&B that you listen to after a breakup, it’s the music that you listen to when you are waiting for the person who you have a crush on to come over. Now that the industry drama has ceased, Jordan is poised to continue building on the already impressive body of work she’s already created. In conversation, she is confident, knowledgeable about music history, and shows humility. A few months ago, me and Rochelle spoke about growing up in Toronto, her musical influences, living in Los Angeles now and much more. – Jayson Buford
What was it like being born in England and growing up in Toronto?
Rochelle Jordan: I still have very, very early memories of being in England. I was so young, but I can still see my old house. Most of my family still lives in the UK and I often travel back and forth so I’m pretty much rooted in the UK as well, but was raised in Canada, just outside of Toronto on the east side, a place called Durham Region. It was a great upbringing, I mean, being raised in Canada… Or in Toronto, I would say, or Ontario where it’s very much a melting pot, very diverse, wasn’t problematic. I didn’t have any issues in school really, not much racial tension, it wasn’t something that I dealt with comparing it to the things that are happening in America and stuff like that. It was quite peaceful. And then not to mention the West Indian roots as well, that I have, very much embedded into Toronto culture.
Toronto reminds me of New York in a lot of ways. What’s really funny is the West Indies both have a footprint in Toronto and in England, which is very interesting.
Rochelle Jordan: There was a lot of uprooting from Jamaica, from Guyana, and just the Caribbean just in general.
What was Toronto like around the time that you blew up?
Rochelle Jordan: At that point I was traveling back and forth from Toronto to LA often. I would spend months in America and come back and forth. But first and foremost, that was the era of the blogs, right, the era of SoundCloud, where we finally had just our own platform, but at a grander scale because of the way social media was working, to be able to just have that freedom of releasing your music on your own terms.
And I think it was the energy of the world shifting into this new era and at that point as well, when it came to Toronto, Drake had really blown up into a massive star and put such a crazy light onto Toronto, and pretty much gained Toronto an identity. That was all Drake that had done that at that time. So Toronto, we were all really hyped because we realized like, “Damn, okay, maybe we do have some value. Now we have a little bit of attention, let’s feel inspired and just kind of trail behind Drake and see what comes of it.” But yeah, excitable at that time. There was definitely a celebratory spirit that was happening in the Toronto scene.
What’s your favorite part of living in Los Angeles?
Rochelle Jordan: My favorite part, I would say the beach, I would say the water, that’s just where I find my solace. I’m definitely a scenic girl, I like scenery, I love being in nature. I love being by water, that’s one of the things that inspires me the most. And so it was like, I can’t get enough of that out here, but then also again, it’s full of creativity out here, everyone is on a mission.
Who were some of your favorite musicians growing up?
Rochelle Jordan: Some of my favorite musicians growing up, I would have to say for sure Janet Jackson, an absolute, Whitney, Houston, Michael Jackson, Earth, Wind and Fire and then that was what was played a lot at the house. Beres Hammond and a lot of different reggae artists as well. But as I got older and really started to appreciate music for my own perspective, right, not from what I was necessarily being told to listen to, but now I’m having the choice, I would say my ears really took to Mariah Carey again, Janet Jackson, but also Amerie was a huge, huge inspiration to me growing up. Her All I Have album, and Touch album, to be honest, it was just insanely made, just perfect, perfected in my ear.
And then you had Aaliyah and Drake as well, when I was listening to music and deciding to take things seriously, and then he started popping off in the city. The one thing that I appreciated so much about Drake is his ability to just adapt to different variations of R&B and hip hop, I thought that was really cool, but also to be so relatable in his lyrics, every single time and just turn it into something that just sticks into your head, he’s a genius in that sense.
Even Paramore as well, which was a huge one for me. Hayley Williams, her voice, and just her ability to take rock music, but make it conscious, but also pop at the same time, just amazing. It was a bunch of different artists, but all of them kind of set me up to take this seriously and to create my own identity, which was important to me.
So your last album was six years ago, you’ve released music throughout that time, but what about now, made you want to release a new record?
Rochelle Jordan: Over the past five years I had been creating what would come to be Play With the Changes. Throughout the five years I had obviously aspirations of just releasing my music sooner. I didn’t know it would be in 2021 that I was going to be released in this project. So when you ask, why now? I can’t exactly say I know why now, I think it was just the universal alignment as to why now. There were a lot of things that I had to go through in that time of being away to almost re-find myself as an artist, and refine my music as well, and just play with different soundscapes over this period of time.
What is the biggest difference between your music now than it was in 2014?
Rochelle Jordan: It’s all about a mindset, right? And for me, when I can think back to even my earliest project before the ROJO one in 2011, the idea of music for me again, was always about finding my identity, staying true to the purpose as to why I make music. Really paying attention to the artists that I do like and the reasons as to why I like them. And a lot of the artists that I grew up loving, maybe some that I haven’t even mentioned, sorry yeah, they always had an imagination I could tell. Even from Aaliyah to Timbaland, Static, those guys to the whole Basement Crew, to the Neptunes with Kelis and Samantha James as well, with her producer as well, and she’s an electronic, soul artist. And just listening to these artists and why I was attracted to them and the things that attracted me to them, for me, it kind of encouraged me at the very beginning to be very playful with music and try to try to search for things that were different and new. New melodies, new harmonies, what could I come up with that I could make my own?
Myself and KLSH, my producer, we have always been very imaginative with music, but I think when we finally released this one song on the ROJO project called “How to Feel,” it was the first time that people kind of really blew up about it and really took to my music. And it was more of that traditional R&B sense with a little bit of that Toronto identity feel to it. And because people reacted so well, we decided to kind of go down that road and stick with it. But for me, I’m an artist that’s always growing and I’m an artist that always wants to find a new way to do new things.
So after 1021, and I would say even during 1021, if you listen to some of the songs, like “Ease Your Mind,” for instance, or “There You Go,” or even “Good Ones” has a little bit of a drum and bass undertone to it. I was already ready to kind of move past the traditional R&B, the dream trap R&B, I was already like, “Okay, let me get back to my original self where I wanted to find new points about myself and kind of come out of my certain boxes.”
At that point, we got with Machinedrum and Jimmy Edgar, and we were just able to create this whole new energy around me, which I couldn’t have asked for just a better outcome. But more than anything, when it comes to music, I’m somebody who needs to be excitable when it comes to making music. If I ever get the feeling of stagnation, it’s hard for me to create. When it comes to even picking beats with these guys, I’m always trying to find the most wildest ones. Give me something that is going to accelerate me. And I think that this project really reflects upon that and me just wanting to be in the pocket of being challenged and challenging the listener, challenging my fans that love me for just traditional R&B to kind of come out of their box as well and maybe engage with music in a different way that they didn’t think that they would be able to relate to. And it’s the same thing for me when I create it.
A producer should put the artists in the best place for the artists to be in their comfort zones.
Rochelle Jordan: And also these guys, Jimmy, KLSH, Machinedrum, they know I’m a very particular artist as well. I’m not a studio girl. I’m a little bit of an introverted loner when it comes to creating music. I like to write music by myself, I like to record it by myself, I like to organize my vocals by myself, that’s something I do. It’s very interesting because I saw an interview with Timbaland and he was speaking about Missy Elliot’s process and how no one hears her record, she’s always by herself, she never lets anyone listen in and I was excited to hear that because I’m like, “I’m the exact same way.”
Some of your music kind of sounds like a rave. Is that something you grew up with?
Rochelle Jordan: I didn’t grow up with that, unfortunately. I haven’t had much experience at raves at all to be honest, which is… It sucks but at the same time I’ve always had fantasies of it. When I go to England, it’s usually for a few weeks, but I’m so busy meeting up with family and just in everyone’s house and everyone wants to see me and stuff. So I never got a chance to just be in the UK and just go raving and go partying.
I can imagine what it is from what my cousins tell me it’s like, and just hearing the music that comes out from the UK as well. It’s just so much iconic music that comes from the UK alone, so much amazing drum and bass, garage music, jungle music, that I can only assume what the rave scene is like. I have an autistic brother who, he’s about 10 years older than me so he was about 14 when we moved to Canada and he suffers from OCD, but with that being said, one of the great things about that is that he was obsessed with music, he’s always been obsessed with music, from the UK specifically. So he had briefcases with cassettes galore… They weren’t even names.
And he would just play them obsessively every day, all day long. So I’m hearing chord progressions and drum patterns and intricate harmonies and melodies, and not even knowing the names of these people, but just I was literally just soaking up this amazing dance music, amazing jungle music and even till this day, I don’t even know the names, but if he would play it, I would sing it back, I would know exactly what these songs are. I think that alone definitely influenced this project because I made it a thing this time around to almost silence the noise of what was going on in music over the past four years. I made it a thing to not listen. I was obviously up to date and knew what was going on in the culture, but I made it a thing to not listen because I really wanted to get back to my roots.
Do you have a song that you really love most on this album?
Rochelle Jordan: “Love You Good” I would say today is my favorite song on the album. I tend to wrap things up into kind of a bubble of a love interest if you will. But a lot of my songs, the inside of it, inside of it, I’m kind of speaking to kind of how I feel, or maybe other experiences that I’m going through.
So for instance, with “Love You Good” I find that over the years, I’ve kind of turned into a little bit of an introvert, a little bit of a loner, which I actually loved, which is very strange. But at the same time, I feel like I’m misunderstood a lot of the time. And not necessarily when it comes to love, but maybe friendships and things like that because I go about things a certain way, right. And so I thought to myself, when I was writing, “Love You Good” I was thinking about that, but then I was thinking about also in a love aspect as well, maybe sometimes you feel misunderstood or no one can love you because you’re kind of a weird lover, in this weird pocket of energy and yeah, it’s just funny hearing some people respond to Love You Good too and be like, “Oh my God, like I relate to that so much.”
You mentioned Timbaland and Missy Elliott. What’s your favorite Timbaland and Missy Elliott song, if you have one?
Rochelle Jordan: Okay, so I would say honestly… “Why are you all in my grill?” It’s probably one of my favorites. Yeah, it’s insane actually. Man, just her writing style alone, you can hear her on anybody. Her identity is just one for the generations and we all got to give her flowers.
I think we have grossly forgotten about Missy Elliott. Not forgotten, and I think there’s a lot of different reasons for it but I think that if you asked, in rap circles, they would not name Missy Elliott as a top 15 rapper of all… But I think easily —
Rochelle Jordan: Missy Elliott is an avant-garde artist. She’s just in a whole other lane, whole other sector. Yeah she is a hip hop artist, but she’s also a writer, she’s also a visual artist, she is also a producer, a top five producer. She has all these different things and that’s why people never remember to mention her because she is so avant-garde in that sense. She literally stands on a pedestal all by herself. I don’t know many that kind of are in the same bracket, if you will. So I know for her, it might feel like irritating because it’s like, “Why aren’t you guys mentioning me or talking about me.” People only forget because you’re incomparable.
I definitely look up to her in that sense as well, because I’m also an album artist as well. I can’t just be on a rotator, just throwing whatever the hell out. It’s well thought out, I try to keep that standard about myself as well and there’s artists like Missy Elliot that will do that for me, who’ll help me to remember why I do this.

We are delighted to announce our latest book to be released, the little book for REALLY REALLY brilliant Grandparents! This is the latest in our ‘Really Really’ series, little books with collections of sage advice coupled with fantastic illustrations. We think this is such an appropriate time to be bringing this book out to the world.
The role of a grandparent is unique to family life. The warmth and joy they provide is uncomplicated and unlimited by the normal boundaries of parental responsibilities – they get to spoil their grandchildren to their heart’s desire. Yet this year grandparents have also suffered greatly, with government-imposed lockdowns preventing thousands of grandparents (new and old) from seeing their loved ones.
Now with the lowering of restrictions over the Christmas holidays, we are given a glimpse of hope to be able to reconnect with our families. Once more, grandparents will have the opportunity to pour out their love, encouragement and generosity – in whatever form – to those they hold dear. However, as we readjust to an ever-changing world, it is crucial to give support and encouragement to all those on their grandparent journey.
Rob Parsons OBE and Katharine Hill – both grandparents themselves – have teamed up once again to bring this light-hearted collection of quotes, and sayings, with illustrations as always from the fabulous David McNeill. Offering ideas, strategies and practical tips on this vital role within the family, this book is an ideal gift for any grandparent (or for yourself!) in these strange times. We are so thrilled to have the opportunity to work with them again and we hope you will love reading this book as much as we have enjoyed putting it together!

The ATO will now have information on an individual’s new $65,000 car or their $100,000 boat as it looks to flush out tax dodgers who aren’t being completely honest about their financial affairs.
The Tax Office has now extended its lifestyle assets data-matching program for the 2020–21 financial year through to 2022–23, allowing it to acquire insurance policy information for certain asset classes.
Motor vehicles with values of $65,000 and above will fall within the ATO’s data collection scope, as well as marine vessels above $100,000, thoroughbred horses over $65,000, fine art over $100,000 per item, and aircraft over $150,000.
The ATO will acquire the data from 25 insurance providers, with the agency expecting 300,000 individuals to be identified each year.
The data-matching program, which has been around since 2016, will give the ATO oversight over individuals who have been untruthfully declaring insufficient income in their tax returns despite accumulating assets.
Taxpayers who dispose of assets and do not declare the revenue and capital gains on those disposals will also be identified.
According to the ATO, it will also help identify taxpayers who are purchasing assets for personal use through their business or related entities and claiming GST credits they are not entitled to, or those who are using those assets for the personal enjoyment of an associate or employee which may give rise to a fringe benefits tax liability.
The program will also be used to identify SMSFs that may be acquiring assets but applying them to the benefit of the fund’s trustee or beneficiaries.
Where an individual has been identified for not complying with their tax obligations, the ATO said it will apply “appropriate treatment recommendations”, but noted that it will not result in the “automated generation of compliance activities”.
“Where a taxpayer is correctly meeting their obligations, the use of the data will reduce the likelihood of contact from us,” said the ATO.
“In cases where taxpayers fail to comply with these obligations even after being prompted and reminded of them, escalation for prosecution action may be initiated.”
Data collected by the ATO will be retained for five years.
The extension of the lifestyle assets data-matching program comes as the ATO increasingly relies on similar programs — including its work on motor vehicles and cryptocurrency — to ensure taxpayers are meeting their tax and super obligations.

A healthcare worker was infected with COVID-19 twice in just 20 days – believed to be the shortest time between two infections documented since the pandemic began.
The Spanish woman, 31, became infected with the Delta variant followed by the Omicron variant of the virus in under three weeks, according to a study.
Researchers say the case shows that even vaccinated people who have had COVID-19 “cannot assume they are protected against reinfection”.
Dr Gemma Recio, of the Institut Catala de la Salut in Spain, one of the study’s authors, said it highlights the potential of the Omicron variant to evade previous immunity.

Case believed to be shortest known gap between infections
The female healthcare worker, who has been kept anonymous, became infected in December 2021, 12 days after she received her booster vaccine.
She had no symptoms and went into isolation for 10 days.
Just days after she returned to work in January she began to show symptoms of the virus – a cough and fever as well as feeling generally unwell – and tested positive.
Her case, which is being presented to the European Congress of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases in Portugal, is believed to be the shortest known gap between infections.
Case ‘underscores the need to carry out genomic surveillance of viruses’
Dr Recio said: “People who have had COVID-19 cannot assume they are protected against reinfection, even if they have been fully vaccinated.
“Nevertheless, both previous infection with other variants and vaccination do seem to partially protect against severe disease and hospitalisation in those with Omicron.
“This case also underscores the need to carry out genomic surveillance of viruses in infections in those who are fully vaccinated and in reinfections.
“Such monitoring will help detect variants with the ability to partially evade the immune response.”
Work by the Office for National Statistics suggests the risk of reinfection is 10 times higher with the Omicron variant compared with the Delta variant.
Omicron is now the dominant variant in most of the world.

The Lopez Library is welcoming all past, present, and future library volunteers to gather at the library on Friday, Dec 2nd from 5 to 6:30 p.m. This will be a celebration of the glue that holds the library together, its stalwart volunteers! Countless members of the community have put in innumerable hours since the library’s earliest days when it was housed in basements and attics. It’s this history of contribution, the tending to the library and nurturing it for the community, that will be celebrated.
This event is also a great time to hear about the newly refreshed volunteer program, meet the Crew leads, Library Staff, Friends of the Library, and other engaged Lopezians, as well as celebrate the work of long-time Library volunteers. There will be fun, games, prizes and surprises, as well as dedicated time to get to know new and old friends. The Library welcomes you to bring family and friends into our shared, community space for a warm evening of coming together in service.
For questions, please email Volunteer Coordinator, Claudia Rempel at email@example.com.

It’s been an unnaturally challenging journey, but only a few more steps remain before Skye Halliday Wilson becomes a certified group fitness instructor. “I have two more sections of my ISSA exam to complete, then I will have to get my CPR recertification — and of course, it’s been hard to find a class,” she says. “But I finished a mentorship and was brought on part time as a group coach at Funktional Fitness one day per week.”
Wilson used her mandated at-home time to develop fresh ways to move and vetted her experiments on social media. “People were desperate for ideas on how to keep moving, so I changed up my content to help fill that need,” she says. “Clients will always want in-person sessions, but Zoom and Instagram workouts have showed people that they don’t need to spend hours of their day or have tons of equipment to make strides toward a healthier lifestyle.”
Wilson used her followers’ feedback to create a unique roster of exercises, which she now plans to leverage in a group fitness format and with her personal training clients — which, according to her, are in no short supply. “Once our shelter-in-place [order] was lifted, I was able to secure two new clients that same day!” she says. “I think this time has showed many of us that our health is crucial and is something we cannot take for granted.”
However, Wilson is still respectful of those who are not yet ready to train in person and has designed an at-home workout guide that is free to anyone who asks. She also has plans to build a full-service online platform so she can reach even more people.
Many people let fitness fall by the wayside during the first half of the year, but Wilson believes the mental aspect of starting over may be even harder than the physical. “Like they say, your body doesn’t quit, your brain does,” she says. “Our bodies are machines. They are built to move. Our minds, however, can talk us into (or out of!) just about anything. Your workouts will be hard. You will want to quit. But you have to find the inner strength to push past those feelings and keep going.”
Developing this mind-body connection is useful when it comes to exercise, but Wilson also believes it is important when it comes to self-worth. “This connection is huge when it comes to loving your body,” she says. “Ask any woman on the street and she’ll name a list of the things she doesn’t like about herself. It took me a long time to start focusing more on what my body can do rather than what it looks like, and it’s something I still work on every day.”
For those struggling with this issue, as well, Wilson recommends actually speaking your thoughts out loud to help flip the script. “For example, this past week, I put on a pair of old shorts and man, they were tight!” she says. “I started feeling bad about myself, but then I took a deep breath and said out loud, Your thighs are what allow you to squat a heavy barbell. They push the pedals up huge hills on your mountain bike. They allow you to walk, run and swim. Then I put on a better-fitting pair of shorts and left the negativity behind. It’s not easy, and sometimes I feel silly doing it, but we have to flip that script. We need to begin saying out loud the things we love about ourselves and our bodies.”

After a long design development period with the architect, Novum was contracted to engineer, furnish and install the impressive glazed free form structures, which have become the trademark of the new Dali Museum on Tampa Bay. To ensure the priceless art collection would be protected from hurricanes, Novum went through a rigorous process to obtain Miami-Dade Notice of Approval for the glazing system. Test mock-ups of the proposed system combination were constructed at a certified laboratory. Testing proved satisfactory for large and small missile impact, water infiltration and cyclical tests that mimicked intense hurrican conditions.
Structurally the free form system uses forged steel nodes are elecroplated and painted. Double node technology solves free form geometric issues of beam twist. Rectangular steel tubes are galvanised and powder coated.
An edge clamped glass (ECG) system holds fully tempered, laminated, insulating glass panels with a low-E coating in place. Below 30 ft elevation, a high performance ionoplast interlayer is used. Above 30 ft elevation, a PVB interplayer is used.

Well, that was exciting, no?
Short version, from what I can tell: the court decided that Obamacare’s individual mandate is not permitted under the Commerce Clause, but is permitted in terms of being a tax. Which means three things:
- The President is a poor Constitutional Scholar, given that he claimed that the health tax was permitted under the Commerce Clause;
- The President is a liar, as he promised not to raise taxes on the middle class.
- Vote Republican in November. As a tax, we can get rid of this monstrosity with a simple majority vote in the Senate (HI, RECONCILIATION!).

The town in 1800
If we could be transplanted back into the town of 1800, our first surprise would be its smallness. It was only a narrow strip of houses from Snow Hill to Charing Cross with a bulge at the Charing Cross end embracing Hue Street and Old Street on one side and Seale Street and Sand Street on the other. This bulge was comparatively new, for the two oldest houses in Hue Street bear the dates 1756 and 1767.
In breadth the town merely stretched from Hill Street to Hilgrove Street and from Broad Street to King Street. The back windows on the north side of King Street and Hilgrove Street looked out over green fields, the back windows on the south side of Broad Street over sand dunes to the sea.
Our second surprise would be the extreme narrowness of the streets. King Street, Queen Street, Hill Street and Library Place were Chemins de huit pieds, eight feet across from house to house. Others were half that breadth: Chemins de quatre pieds, such as Bond Street.
The third surprise would be the number of streams you had to cross on planks. All the valleys and hills that surround the town pour streams down into the plain, and these have to find their way to the sea. Today they flow underground through sewers, but then they flowed on the surface. There was a watermill in Bond Street and another in Dumaresq Street. Innumerable rivulets ran down the streets, and the planks that crossed them were familiar direction points.
Advertisements in the early Gazettes constantly describe houses as being near the Planque Billot or the Planque Godel. I will not pretend that St Helier was then a northern Venice, but it was certainly a town of running waters.
I have spoken of the streets by their modern English names, but in 1800 all the street names were, of course, French. The Royal Square was le Marché. The old name of Church Street must have begun as a joke; but it became official. A stream ran down the middle of the road, and apparently there was no plank; so ladies wishing to cross to church had to tuck up their skirts and jump. Hence someone named the street Rue Trousse Cotillon (Tuck-up-your-petticoat street), and the name stuck. It is found in Acts of the Visite des Chemins and in contracts passed by the Court.
A more recent example of a joke name that nearly became official is Crackankle Lane (a gorgeous inspiration), which, till Victoria College was built, was the name for College Hill.
It is a pity that Bond Street lost its pretty name of Rue de la Madeleine, which preserved the memory of the mediaeval Chapel of St Mary Magdalen, which was only pulled down in the 18th century. The old name of Broad Street was Rue d’Egypte. I cannot imagine why. Nor can I suggest why La Chasse was called Rue de Madegascar. (La Chasse, by the way, has nothing to do with hunting, but is an old Norman-French word for a small by-way.)
Hill Street was at first the Rue des Forges. In 1674 an Act of the Court forbad the inhabitants of Rue des Forges to throw their soapsuds into the brook, as this defiled their neighbours' drinking water. But later, from a tavern where the lawyers dined, it became known as Rue des Trois Pigeons. Queen Street was Rue es Porcqs. This had nothing to do with pigs. The Le Porcq family owned the land on which the street was built.
King Street was Rue de Derriere (Backdoor Street), because at first it contained only the backyard gates of the houses in Broad Street and the Square. St Peter Port in Guernsey still has its Back Street; and one of the best known walks in Cambridge is called The Backs. Dumaresq Street and Le Geyt Street were spoken of as es Hemies. Hemie is Jersey-French for a five-barred gate; so these, no doubt, were private roads shut off by gates.
The country lanes round the town all had their French names, which they retained when they were built on. St Clement's Road was Rue es Ronces (Blackberry Bushes Road). Regent Road was Rue de Froid Vent (Cold Wind Street).
Roseville Street was Rue de Long Bouet. I am not sure what this means. St Peter Port has two streets called Le Bouet and Le Grand Bouet, and there is a valley in Alderney called Le Bouet. As Roseville Street runs through low-lying land, it may have some connection with boue (mud).
Vauxhall Street was Rue de la Dame. At its David Place end there was a field known as Piece de la Dame, with a well in a grove known as Puit de la Dame. This was haunted ground. A white lady walked here at night. De la Croix wrote: ‘Concerning the Piece de la Dame there exist a thousand superstitious stories of apparitions; nevertheless the mothers of the town go there (by day, be it understood, for by night they would not dare to approach it) to wash their garments and hang them up on the quickset hedge to dry.’
Val Plaisant is a mystery. It may have been pleasant, before the houses were built; but it can never have been a valley. David Place is nowhere more than a few feet higher than Val Plaisant, and on its other side the ground slopes downward to the sea. Can Val in old Norman French have had some different meaning?
This is the case with Rouge Bouillon, which has nothing to do with either broth or boiling. Bouillon in Norman-French means a marsh. It is found all over the Island. St Brelade has a marshy field called Le Bouillon. There is a Clos de Bouillon at St Ouen, and another at St John, and a Trinity farm called Les Bouillons. Guernsey, too, has a district called Bouillon and a Rue du Bouillon at St Peter Port. The stream which flows down Queen's Road formed a marsh or bouillon at the bottom, and the oxide of iron that was carried down from the clay higher up gave the mud a reddish colour. In Elizabeth I’s reign this district was known as contree du Rouge Bouillon, the land of the Red Marsh.
La Pouquelaye reminds us that a dolmen once covered that hill, for pouquelaye is old Norman-French for a cromlech or dolmen. The learned derive it from petra poculata, stones with cup markings, which in French would be pierres gouquelees. The popular derivation is Puck stones or fairy stones. The dolmen was standing, when Morant wrote in 1761, but soon after was broken up for building material.
La Motte Street, too, may have prehistoric memories, for motte means 'mound', and a conspicuous mound was often a Neolithic burial place. Whether that long-vanished mound was natural or artificial, no one can now say, but it gave its name to one of our medieval manors.
At the bottom of Grosvenor Street is a door marked Old Government House. (It is the house in which Moyse Corbet, the Lieut-Governor, was seized by the French on the eve of the Battle of Jersey.) This is the old Manoir de la Motte, which in the 15th century was one of the chief manors of the Island. In those days there were no houses nearer than Hill Street, and its manor grounds stretched as far as Colomberie, where stood the colombier or pigeon-tower, a highly-prized privilege. The possession of a colombier raised a manor in Jersey to the highest rank; and in this respect La Motte was unique, for, when it was advertised for sale in 1797, it was stated that it had 'the right to two colombiers'. Racquet Court is probably the site of the tennis-court of the manor, real tennis played within walls, not lawn tennis.
Georgetown preserves the name of another manor, on whose fief it stood, the Manoir de Georges, later known as Bagot. In 1442 we read of Jean Bagot, Seigneur of Gorges. It is strange that more of the old Fief names were not given to the streets built on them. La Rondiole Road, La Houguette Street, Meleches Lane, Surville Street and Debennaire Road would be more attractive than meaningless repetition of names of English towns, Brighton Road, Croydon Road, Hastings Road, Oxford Road, Windsor Road, Richmond Road, etc.
Havre des Pas
Havre des Pas recalls an ancient chapel, which stood at the end of Green Street. Occasionally marks are found on a rock, which look like human footprints. Havre des Pas boasted two of these footprints of the Virgin, and built a little chapel over them, Chapelle des Pas (Chapel of the footprints).
In the 15th century this had a Fraternity attached to it, with its own cemetery under the shadow of its chapel. At the Reformation, like other chapels, it was confiscated by the Crown, and became a dwelling house. In 1814 it was blown up by the military authorities on the ground that it afforded cover to an enemy attacking Fort Regent. It must have been a solid structure, for ten mines were necessary; and with that explosion vanished our hopes of ever inspecting those footprints.
Two names just outside the town remind us of another bit of ecclesiastical history. In 1198 a knight named Hugh de Gornaco founded a monastery in Normandy, and called it Bellozanne Abbey. He must have been a good beggar, for he got a subscription out of John, who later became King of England. His gift consisted of 20 livrees of land in Jersey, and this remained the property of the abbey for centuries. Hence that hill was known as Mont a l'Abbe (Abbot's Mount), and the valley behind as Bellozanne Valley.
And, while thinking of ancient things, let us not forget the Dicq. A dicq was an embankment to keep out the sea, like the dykes in Holland; and from early days there must have been one round St Clement's Bay to prevent the spring tides from flooding the low-lying land.
Switch to English
About 1790 the great switch over from French to English began. In many cases the French name was merely translated into English. Rue des Vignes, so called from its vine-covered houses, became Vine Street; Vieux Chemin, Old Street; Rue Verte Green Street; Rue du Petit Douet, Brook Street; Rue des Sablons, Sand Street; Ruette de la Commune, a memory of days when the land from St Mark's Road to Belmont Road was an open common, became Common Lane.
But often the new name had no connection with the old. We can sympathize with residents in Rue des Helles, if they wanted a new address, though the old name had nothing to do with the Infernal Regions - the Helles were a Jersey family, who held the Fief es Helles at St John and property in the town. But Ann Street was not an inspiring alternative to have chosen.
The craziest feature in the switch over was the borrowing of names from London, which were generally allotted as inappropriately as possible.
Cheapside, the hub of business London, was given to an outlying street of suburban villas; Drury Lane, the centre of Theatre Lane, to a rural back-lane off Rouge Bouillon; Bond Street, the fashionable shopping-centre, to what was then a four-foot muddy alley; Vauxhall, London's glamorous pleasure-garden, to a road whose most conspicuous ornament was a brick-kiln. Covent Garden in Jersey was an insignificant street without Convent, Opera House, or Vegetable Market; and St James's Street, London's most aristocratic address, was a cul-de-sac near the Cattle Market. Later, when St James's Church was built, the name was transferred to the street that passes that church, and the other became Old St James's Street, and then plain James Street.
Snow Hill, at any rate, is a hill, though very unlike the one at Holborn, down which the Mohocks rolled women in barrels. Of all these London names, only one seems appropriate; Newgate Street does at any rate contain the prison. A chance was missed when they failed to turn into Rotten Row Ruette Pourriture, where the steps now lead from Snow Hill to Regent Road.
In some cases, after a struggle, the old French name survived. For a time Colomberie was called Dove Street; Lemprière Street, Sligo Street; and Journeaux Street, John Street. But in each case the older name came back to its own.
Growth of town
For the first half of the 19th century the growth of the town was prodigious. When Falle wrote in 1734, the population was about 2,000. By 1800 it had quadrupled to 8,000. By 1831 this had doubled again, to 16,000. By 1841 it was 24,000, by 1851 30,000. All these newcomers had to be housed. Jersey was a builder's paradise. New streets sprang up like mushrooms, and for each a new name had to be found.
Some took their names from a building in them. The Public Library, until it moved to its present premises in 1886, was in Library Place, Bath Street had public baths, opened in 1827 with "baths hot or cold, fresh or salt, Bristol, Harrogate or Cheltenham".
Museum Street gained its name from a museum started in 1836 with "an Exhibition of Egyptian, Grecian, and Roman relics, collected by the late John Gosset, Esq, including a mummy, numerous papyri and amulets found in tombs at Thebes, specimens of the arts of the South Sea Islands, China, America, etc, liberally lent for the purpose of establishing a National Museum". Unfortunately, on the first free day, so much damage was done that the museum had to be closed, and nothing remained but the name which clung to the house and street.
St James's Church, built in 1829, gave its name not only to St James's Street, St James's Place, New St James's Place, and St James's Cottages, but also to Chapel Lane, for in early days the church was known as St James's Chapel of Ease.
Before St Mark's Church was finished in 1844, St Mark's Road had borrowed its name. And Wesley Street takes its title from the Wesleyan Chapel.
Many a street is called after some private house in, it. Hilgrove Street, for example, after Hilgrove House, the home of the Hilgrove family, a large mansion which stood on the bank of the Grand Douet, near the point where the present Hilgrove Street meets Halkett Place. Its spacious fishpond occupied the site of what is now the Market, and, until its later years, it looked out north and east over nothing but green fields. It was pulled down in 1845.
Plaisance Road got its name from Plaisance, the home of Jurat Falle. Many other of our street names, such as Bagatelle Road and Belvedere Hill, can be explained in the same way.
Other streets preserve the name of a landowner. Mont Cochon, like Rue es Porcqs, has nothing to do with pigs, but belonged to the Couchon family. In early deeds it was generally called Mont Couchon.
Burrard Street was a gift to the town from Sir Harry Burrard, the General who superseded Wellington in the Peninsular War. His mother was a Durell, and he was born at St Ouen. The Gazette de Cesaree announced in 1812: "Lieut-Gen Sir Harry Burrard is about to give a new proof of the lively interest he takes in his native land by opening a road from New Street to the New Markets. This road will be called Burrard Street after its generous donor."
In the Visite des Chemins of 1699, Hue Street is called "the road which passes the house of Mr Helier Hue"; and permission is given to Matthew Le Geyt to widen the street beside his house" (the present Le Geyt Street).
A contract of 1770 describes Dumaresq Street as "the street which Guillaume Dumaresq caused to be made". Lemprière Street in the Town Plan of 1800 is a long, private tree-lined avenue, leading up to the large house of the St Helier branch of the Lemprieres.
Jean Seaton was an auctioneer who sold his goods on an open space facing the sands, which he called the Seatonnerie. Here a little later Seaton Place was built.
Byron Road and Byron Lane have nothing to do with the poet. They were built on land that was called Bironnerie long before the poet was born, a name derived from the Jersey family of Biron.
Haguais Street, the short cut from Broad Street to King Street opposite the Post Office, gets its name from another old island family, the Haguais.
The military authorities also have left their mark. The Parade was a wilderness of rough sandhills, until General Don levelled it to be the parade-ground of the Militia. At the corner of Cannon Street the building can be seen where the cannon of the Artillery were stored. And Dauvergne Lane gets its name from Fort Dauvergne (called after the Prince of Bouillon), which stood on the seafront at the end of the lane.
Some streets received the names of bigwigs, whom the town desired to honour.
First the Royalties: King Street and Queen Street from George III and Queen Charlotte, and Regent Road from the Prince of Wales, the future George IV, who acted as Regent during his father's madness.
In 1817 the Duke of Gloucester, nephew of George III, visited Jersey, the first Royalty to do so since Charles II, and Rue de l'Hopital (Hospital Street), was renamed Gloucester Street in his honour. Clarence Road got its name from the Duke of Clarence, who became William IV; and the old Rue de la Planque Billot became York Street as a compliment to his brother, the Duke of York.
When Queen Victoria came to the Island with Prince Albert in 1849, the memory of that visit was enshrined in Victoria College, the Victoria and Albert Piers, Victoria Street, Albert Street, and Queen's Road. Victoria Avenue was given its name at the time of the Queen's Jubilee.
Other streets bear the names of popular Governors or Lieut-Governors. Don Road, which is part of the new road from St Helier to Gorey, was named by an Acte of the States in 1806, "seeing that this improvement is the first of its kind to be carried out in the Island, and that its utility is recognized by all, the States desire Posterity as well as our Contemporaries to know to whom it is due. It is therefore ordered that this road be called Don Road" . Don Street was part of another suggestion made by General Don to cut a direct road from the town to the Town Mill. It was begun in 1812, but never carried further than Vauxhall; and eventually New Street and Val Plaisant became the desired thoroughfare.
Halkett Place was a road made when the New Markets were built. At first it was called Rue du Nouveau Marché. When General Gordon, the Lieut-Governor, left in 1821, it was proposed to call it Gordon Street. But his successor, Sir Colin Halkett, became so popular that his friends urged that it should be called by his name. It is mentioned in advertisements as "Gordon Street or Halkett Place" or Rue du Marché, "which some individuals have recently named Halkett Place". An attempt was made to buy off the Halkett supporters by giving them Halkett Street, but this did not content them, and eventually they captured Halkett Place also.
Lord Beresford, the Governor (Halkett was only his Lieutenant), visited Jersey in 1821, and the newly-built Beresford Street was given his name. Conway Street bears the name of General Conway, the builder of our coastal towers; Norcott Road of Sir William Norcott, who became Lieut-Governor in 1873.
The latest road to be named in this way is Mount Bingham. About 1917 Mr E T Nicolle propounded a scheme for regarding Grosvenor Street, La Motte Street, Queen Street, and King Street as a single thoroughfare, and calling it after Sir Walter Raleigh, who was Governor in Elizabeth's reign. The parish authorities would not consent to such a drastic alteration.
But about the same time the property owners of Almorah Road petitioned the Roads Committee to free them from a name that had become associated with funerals. (The road had that name before the cemetery was thoughts of. The builder chose it because his wife had been born in Almorah, a hill town in India.) So, when this petition was read, somebody said "here is one group wanting a road named after Raleigh and another wanting to get rid of the name Almorah. Let us call Almorah Road, Raleigh Avenue. Then everyone should be satisfied."
Other celebrities honoured in this way are Major Peirson (the street where he fell is Peirson Place, and Peirson Road faces Gallows Hill, where he mustered his troops), and Captain Mulcaster, who refused to surrender Elizabeth Castle, though ordered to do so by the Governor.
National leaders receive a tribute of respect in Pitt Street, Nelson Street, Peel Road, and Wellington Road,
But it is strange that this compliment has never been paid to a single Jerseyman. In any French town the street names provide a list of its eminent citizens. But one looks in vain for this in Jersey. Philippe Baudains nearly had his name given to Victoria Avenue, but the Jubilee robbed him of his chance. And Mont Pinel has no connection. The name is sometimes asserted with the late Judge Pinel, but it is the ancient name of the hill, which has recently been revived.
Some names have been switched in an odd way from one street to another. The original Wellington Road lay between the Parade and the sea. The original Oxford Road was what we now call Stopford Road and Victoria Street.
Some queer names have disappeared altogether. No more can you prowl round Tinkers' Court or down Sweeps' Lane. Limpet Lane and Winkle Alley have passed unmourned from the map.
No High Strret
One curious fact must be noted. St Helier must be almost the only town in Great Britain that does not possess a High Street.

In the history of costume, the wedding dress not only has a history all its own, but it has taken on a kind of "rock star" status. These favored garments--often carefully preserved as a family heirloom, sometimes passed down from generation to generation along with mementoes of the bride and her wedding day--have also been the subject of glossy, image-filled books, scholarly studies and museum exhibitions, extending their rather noble bearing.
With weddings becoming more culturally diverse, it's up to couples to pass along a little tradition from their individual families to create traditions of their own all without compromising style. Culture plays a large part in today's wedding, and many brides may find it to be difficult to pay homage to their culture, especially if their significant other comes from a different background.

Harmony is a blockchain platform designed to facilitate the creation and use of decentralized applications (DApps). The network aims to innovate the way decentralized applications work by focusing on random state sharding, which allows creating blocks in seconds.
According to the project’s website, Harmony is expected to introduce cross-shard contracts and a cross-chain infrastructure by the end of 2021.
Who Are the Founders of Harmony?
Stephen Tse is the founder and CEO of Harmony. He has a Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania, specializing in cryptographic protocols and type theory.
While finishing his degree, Dr. Tse became a research intern at Microsoft. In 2006 he started working as a senior engineer at Google, spending four years in the company. In 2011 he founded Spotsetter, a successful search engine which Apple later acquired. In 2014, Dr. Tse became the principal engineer for Apple.
He founded Harmony in 2017. The Harmony founding team comprises twelve people, with seven of them being former employees at Google, Apple, Microsoft, and Amazon.
What Makes Harmony Unique?
Focusing on processing speed and validation, the Harmony mainnet aims to revolutionize block creation. By introducing the sharding process, the company reduced node validation times significantly.
To ensure the protection of nodes and secure the validation process, Harmony introduced the Verifiable Random Function (VRF) for unbiased and unpredictable shard membership. This means that nodes and validators are assigned and re-assigned in a randomized manner.
The project’s Harmony Grants program is an initiative that aims to support innovation and attract developers to the Harmony mainnet.

How Many Harmony (ONE) Coins Are There in Circulation?
Harmony (ONE) has a maximum supply of 12,600,000,000 tokens. As of February 2021, the circulating supply on the market is about 9,486,327,268 ONE.
Out of the total supply of ONE tokens, 22.4% were dedicated to the initial seed sale. Another 12.5% were set aside for an additional Launchpad sale. The Harmony founding team and developers received 16.9% of the total supply. About 26.4% of ONE tokens were dedicated to protocol development, while another 21.8% were directed towards ecosystem development.
How Is the Harmony Network Secured?
Harmony introduces a new version of the proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus. Called effective proof-of-stake (EPoS), this method allows simultaneous staking from hundreds of validators. This consensus method was developed in accordance with the sharding concept utilized in the Harmony network.
Unlike proof-of-work (PoW) consensus mechanisms, EPoS is designed for faster processing times and improved scalability. While PoW requires a lot of electrical and computing power, staking consensus methods rely on an abundance of value holders, who become validators.

Lubricant quality is critical for the performance and efficiency of internal combustion and industrial engines. Over the years, significant amount of efforts have been made in developing robust oil sensors that can accurately monitor oil degradation in real time to save the consumption of oils and reduce their impact on the environment. Although a number of compact sensors have been developed, they are limited to oil physical and electrical property measurements such as viscosity and Tan-delta dielectric sensors. It is desirable to monitor the content of acidic species in oils since it is the true measurements of oil oxidation, which is the main oil degradation process.
Thick-film sensors have been successfully developed to monitor aqueous solution pH changes, where hydrogen ions in water solutions can be accurately detected. As a totally different concept, a recent PhD study at nCATS has investigated the feasibility of thick-film sensor detecting oil acidity. This is because oil is a completely different medium to water-based solution. Extensive experimental results have shown that thick-film sensors can respond to oil acidity changes, where linear correlations between the oil acidity number and sensor outputs are found. This study will further investigate the interactive mechanisms between thick film electrodes and oil chemistry, to further develop thick-film electrodes into robust oil acidity sensors for a wide range of engines.
The PhD is sponsored by EPSRC and Gill Research & Development Limited. Shell Global Solutions will support the project by providing controlled oil samples that can simulate engine oil degradation stages and enable sensor evaluation.

Workforce development is being pushed, tourism is being focused on filming and local history, Main Street Covington is still being evaluated and the traditional Chamber of Commerce is trying to provide value to its members.
The fictional town of Mystic Falls, Va., hosts as many festivals and events as the real city of Covington, which has played the part of Mystic Falls for five years for the popular TV show "The Vampire Diaries."
Paper poppies are returning to Covington Nov. 9, and local residents will have a chance to get a poppy to remember fallen veterans and donate to help area veterans and youths.
Set painter Kristina White said there's no great secret to recreating a 100-plus-year-old house for "The Vampire Diaries."
For those residents who've always wanted to be local celebrities, host their own TV talk show or air episodes of the sitcom they wrote and filmed with friends, the city of Covington recently simplified its pricing structure for airing content on its public access channels.
Jim Dial never saw himself as different from his large circle of family and friends: He liked to have fun, tell a good story and talk to a pretty girl. But the love he inspired in those who knew him and the path he blazed for special-needs children in Newton County tell a unique story.
Without a highly skilled workforce in place, Newton County will struggle to attract the kind of industries that can truly bring up the county's per capita income and improve its quality of life, according to the county's top industrial recruiters.
DeKalb County Sheriff Thomas Brown is mounting a 2014 Democratic primary challenge to incumbent Congressman Hank Johnson, D-Lithonia, saying the four-term representative has become complacent and only follows the Democratic Party line instead of introducing his own legislation.
Covington has begun the long-term process of building a fleet of compressed natural gas-powered vehicles.
Newton County has a lot of tourism assets, but not the kind of organization and connectivity that turns all those assets into full experiences that keep tourists in town over multiple days.
The fair is back in town this week, and this time part of the proceeds will support cancer research through Relay for Life.
The fair is coming back to town this week, and this time part of the proceeds will go fund cancer research through Relay for Life.
Covington and local Chamber of Commerce officials spent an hour and a half Monday discussing plans to attract tourists and talented professional residents, and one local group believes the Yellow River can play a major part in reaching both goals.
A fugitive who was being sought in an armed robbery attempt and shootout at a Fayetteville restaurant was found dead in a Covington apartment complex Tuesday by law enforcement officials, who had an arrest warrant for the man.
The Newton County Board of Commissioners has begun setting its strategic goals, and topping the list is reducing the millage rate, a promise commissioners made to the public when the board raised the rate earlier this year.
Oxford Councilman Frank Davis, a longtime city resident and active volunteer, passed away Sunday.
Covington is adding more than two dozen vehicles to its fleet, including 19 police cars, to finish its take-home car program and five gasoline and compressed natural gas (CNG) bi-fuel trucks to take advantage of the CNG fueling station the city is building.
Fifteen-year-old Kimby Wragg is on a mission to raise awareness about Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS), a rare nervous system disorder with a still unknown cause.
If you're looking for a new place to visit in Newton County, why not stop by the town of Winton, or visit Webbville, New Berlin or Sandtown?
Newton County has agreed to work with the city of Covington to cut the grass around I-20's exit 93 and down Ga. Highway 142, and could receive some money from the state to finance the project.
With most local races decided before they begin (13 of 15 city council seats in Newton County are uncontested), the focus is on the Covington's lone race between incumbent Councilman Chris Smith and challenger Maurice Carter, husband of former Covington mayor Kim Carter.
No, not the upset citizens - at least not physically - but criminals, electrical lines and heavy equipment all carry varying degrees of risk.
Women diagnosed with breast cancer are in for a difficult battle, but a group of dedicated staff and volunteers at Newton Medical Center ensure that those women aren't alone.
Hope can come in many forms, but for breast cancer survivors it often comes in the hope of a return to normalcy, and that's where Newton Medical Center's Hope Boutique comes in.
Newton County commissioners took a fresh look at their home Thursday, evaluating the county's strengths and weaknesses and looking at the opportunities and threats that could be coming in future years.
Conyers native Adam Potts is trying to bring big-city entertainment to east Atlanta, and he's hoping more than 2,000 people will come out to his Party on the Farm tailgate and country music concert Saturday.
The Newton County Recreation Commission has decided to stick with the three internal, county candidates for the recreation director position and will not seek outside candidates for the time being.
Given their inability to read the city code, some dogs in Oxford have been causing consternation by wandering off into the property of other residents.
While talk of the federal government shutdown raged across the Internet, most Newton County residents seemed unaffected by the machinations Tuesday.
"The Vampire Diaries" cast and crew are returning to the square today, and the fifth season is reaching new heights.


We've been on lockdown for almost two weeks now, and told to avoid going outside for even longer, but some people still aren't getting it.
There was the Mothers' Day weekend that saw parks and National Trust gardens swamped to the point they had to close, we've heard about huge parties being shut down by police and even pubs advertising secret, paid-for lock ins despite being told to close.
Thousands of people across the UK are dying, and yet some people are still being unimaginably selfish.
While the police are allowed to issue fines to people found breaching the lockdown rules, the penalty is low - just £30 if you pay quickly - and only happens in severe cases. in fact, no fines have been issued in London yet.
In some cases the police seem to have been rather overzealous, in part due to the rather vague rules set out by the government about what constitutes exercise or essential shopping.
Still, current measures clearly aren't working, and more needs to be done.
The army already has a special Covid-19 force, doing jobs such as helping set up NHS Nightingale and distributing vital hospital equipment and medicines.
Reservists across London and the whole of UK are preparing to be deployed but when asked by MyLondon a British Army spokesperson has repeatedly told us that there will not be members of the armed forces patrolling the streets of London.
But I think there should be.
Around London, seeing police patrol the streets isn't too out of the ordinary, but somehow seeing a soldier patrolling in their greens would definitely grab people's attention.
Some people think that having the army on the street might be bad for morale - but, quite frankly, if you frighten people into staying at home at the expense of a few people who are already worried that's not too much of a bad thing.
Really the army should have been put on the streets much earlier - perhaps if this had been done when lockdown started the rate of infection would be much lower and we could conceivably be past the worst already.
Join the London Coronavirus Updates Facebook group
We've set up a Facebook group for London residents to share information and advice which benefits the community and helps keep people safe regarding the current pandemic.
Please join this group to share information, find out more and offer or get help in the local community if it's needed.
Join the London Coronavirus Updates group here.
A lot of people already think that seeing soldiers on the streets is imminent, so really it's not going to come as a shock to many - and many no doubt would invite it.
Right now a significant minority are disobeying rules that are in place to save lives, and more needs to be done.
I don't doubt that deploying the army to patrol the streets, even having them wander through supermarkets and put up checkpoints, would stop a huge number of people currently flouting rules from leaving the house.

JAX2 Amazon Fulfillment Center its grand opening Friday, April 6th 2018. The Amazon fulfillment center located in Northwest Jacksonville has the capacity to send out one million packages each day. It has yet reach full capacity but has seen steady growth since it began operating in August. The fulfillment center has reached one-day product delivery in the Jacksonville market.
Initial plans for the facility, located at 12900 Pecan Park Road, called for the creation of 1,500 jobs. It now employs more than 2,000 full-time workers. During the past year Amazon has slowly rolled out same-day delivery options for select zip codes in the area.
“Everyone at Amazon is thrilled to open our doors,” said Bernard Schmidt, the facility’s general manager, during a tour of the 855,000-square-foot building on Friday. Schmidt led local officials, business leaders and media past the building’s 12 miles of conveyor lines, 72 dock bay doors and hundreds of robotic units.
The facility specializes in the shipping of small items – anything under 25 pounds – while a second fulfillment center at Cecil Commerce Center handles the larger items.
Amazon, which began integrating robotics into its centers in 2014, currently has ten facilities in Florida. Permits filed with the city indicate Amazon also plans to build two additional facilities in Jacksonville, one on Bulls Bay Highway and another on Cabot Commerce Circle. Company representatives declined to comment on either project.
Also on Friday, Amazon announced it would be donating $25,000 to Renaissance Jax, a nonprofit that promotes science, engineering, technology and math education.
“We look forward to building a great relationship with the community in the years ahead,” Schmidt said.

Well 4v50 I was not so much questioning rather the Gatling existed during the civil war as much as lamenting the Iconic Gatlings used in battle did not exist such as the Wonderful Tripod mount or the the one sporting that Broadwell drum.. All perfect iconic Gatling gun images that will take a few years to come to be..
But watch out believing that Gatling guns were used to defend the New York times during the 1863 Draft riots.. The only real "proof" that Henry Raymond & Leonard Jerome were manning Gatlings in defense of The Times comes from the Times editorials warning the rioters not to mess with them. (And it did seem to work).
There are just to many holes in the facts to accept this..
But then if its not true, you have to accept the most unbelievable part,that the New York Times editorials tells fibs.....


1997 Ducati 900SS CR in the rare yellow
High compression pistons.
Termignoni carbon fiber slip-ons in exceptional condition.
Open airbox with K&N filter.
Brembo full floating cast iron rotors.
Stock forks were rebuilt/resprung several years ago.
There's a very small ding in the tank but overall the bike is in outstanding condition.
Best of all...
The bike has been freshly serviced by TJ at MotoUnion in WI--literally zero miles since the valve adjustment and belts (OEM) were replaced.
I also ultrasonically cleaned the carbs and installed:Brand new Shorai battery
Brand new 520 sprockets (aluminum rear)
Brand new DID ERV3 520 chain
Brand new Dunlop Q3 tires
Brand new EBC HH brake pads
Fresh Motul RBF600 brake and clutch fluid
Filter and full synthetic oil change
The modifications have been carefully selected and things like the windscreen and fenders are still OEM.
The maintenance has thoroughly been done, so you'll have nothing to do but ride for thousands of miles.
If you are interested, I have an aluminum swingarm and 5.5" rear wheel from the SS SP, a service stand, and some other spares for the bike (mostly fairings) for additional cost.
If you really want to bring the bike beyond SS SP spec after the rotors/wheel/swingarm, I have the fully adjustable Showas with the $1500 GP Suspension internals kit.
I briefly had them on my 851 before going to Ohlins.
I'll get better photos posted and the exact mileage updated shortly.

Esther, married by her father at 17 to an almost unknown 23-year-old. Julia united at 15 with a boy from her religious community. April, forced to marry a 22-year-old man after being abandoned by her parents. Pat, forcibly married at 14 by her family to a 27-year-old social worker who raped her … On the website of the NGO Unchained at Last, the nightmarish stories that parade one after the other are set in Nevada, the ‘Idaho, New York or Florida. “It is often thought that child marriage concerns only developing countries. Think again, it’s America’s dirtiest and best-kept secret! Fraidy Reiss, founder of this organization, knows what she is talking about. For the past ten years, she has been fighting to eradicate forced marriages and child marriages in her country. “A reality that most of my compatriots ignore,” she explains from her office in New Jersey. It is difficult to imagine that such practices could take place in a country which, moreover, undertook in 2015, under the aegis of the United Nations alongside 193 other States, to eliminate child marriage in France. horizon 2030. And yet, the shock report published in the spring by Unchained at Last, after having collected for the first time in all the States the data on civil marriages, is terrifying: between the years 2000 and 2018, approximately 300,000 minors of under 21 have been legally married, most at the ages of 16 and 17 and for the youngest, as young as 10 years old. In 90% of cases, these children are girls united with adult men. “Every day, I am confronted with reactions of disbelief when I mention these figures, even when I face experienced journalists, elected officials, lawyers or members of the administration, ironically Fraidy Reiss. Most fall from their chairs! The ignorance on this subject is immense. “
Nicholas Kristof, journalist for the New York Times, twice Pulitzer Prize winner and specialist in human rights and international relations, was also able to observe: “I told the story of Sherr y Johnson, a woman from Florida who was married to her rapist at the age of 11. After this article, many readers wrote to me telling me that my information was wrong and that their state does not allow marriage under the age of 18. In a way, they were right: the minimum age for marriage in most of the 50 US states is 18, but each allows exceptions that allow for the worst abuses. As Fraidy Reiss explains, the most common is “parental consent”: most states allow 16 or 17 year olds to marry if their parents sign an application. A “parental consent” which most often resembles a forced marriage. “Even in the event that a girl cries while her parents sign, the clerk usually does not have the power to intervene. In most states, there is no law prohibiting forced marriage, ”explains the activist.
Second exception: judicial approval can lower the age of marriage below 16 in many states, ten of which do not even specify a minimum age. For example, in California, Michigan or Mississippi, judges can legally authorize the marriage of an elementary school student. This is the case with Sherry Johnson, who also told her story in a book. In 1972, at age 11, she was repeatedly raped by a 20-year-old member of her Pentecostal ward. And get pregnant. In order to avoid criminal investigation and opprobrium, the church and its family decide to organize their wedding. A first agent of the local government of Tampa refuses to proceed with the legal union. In the neighboring county of Pinellas, another judicial officer, less observant, marries the little girl to her attacker. In the “New York Times”, Nicholas Kristof published in 2018 the portrait of Dawn Tyree, forcibly married at 13 by her parents to her rapist, a family friend nineteen years her senior. “According to our study, we were able to show that between 2000 and 2018, 60,000 of these marriages were celebrated between people with such a difference in age that it would be a sexual crime if these relationships sexual intercourse took place outside of marriage. But within the framework of a union authorized by law, they become legal. Nothing is done to stop them. What is the point of having laws? »Fraidy Reiss is angry. And to continue: “I have already heard politicians say to me: ‘You know, I tend to think that a girl who gets pregnant has better marry”, even if it is the fruit of a rape! Sometimes marriage is the culmination of a continuum of intra-family violence. Jean was thus married at the age of 15 to a tyrannical and violent man of 27. A way for his abusive mother to have one less mouth to feed.
Michelle, she was united at 16 to a 22-year-old man she barely knew, under pressure from her new stepmother willing to do anything to get rid of her. In many cases, marriage is also a way for parents to control the sexuality of girls, to obtain a visa through a foreign husband, or to conform to cultural traditions as in some religious communities, which ‘they are Catholic, Protestant, Muslim, Mormon or Jewish. This is also the story of Fraidy Reiss. Coming from Brooklyn’s Orthodox Jewish community, she was forced to marry a man chosen by her family at 19. For nearly twenty years, she suffered rape, beatings and death threats before managing to escape from this hell. “I’m still traumatized,” she tells us, still overcome with emotion ten years after her divorce. Forced marriage is a life of abuse. I’m lucky, because setting up this association was therapy for me. But you should know that my family has never forgiven me for leaving my executioner. They consider me dead. I lost everything. “
Today, at 46, it’s hard to imagine that this radiant and determined woman could have suffered such a yoke. Only a tattoo depicting a broken chain around his wrist testifies to this alienated life. “My ex-husband continues to harass me. He is not allowed to approach or contact me, so the last weapon he has left is the courts. He sues me continuously, tries to have custody of the children, to stop paying child support. It’s his way of keeping control. And the judges refuse to admit that it is harassment. If Fraidy Reiss was able to rebuild herself, study, work as a journalist and then a private detective, others are not so lucky. “We know that a married child will develop all types of psychiatric disorders,” she continues. Most of these girls are withdrawn from school and are 30% more likely than others to live in poverty. Since the creation of her organization, Fraidy has helped 700 women and some men escape these forced unions. But only adults. “A lot of minors call us to ask for help. Unfortunately, we can’t do anything for them because we don’t have the right to do so. Those who flee the marital home or parents who seek to marry them are considered runaways. In general, they are taken home by the police, even if they are subjected to violence. A battered adult woman will be accommodated in an emergency center. But a minor will not have access to it. “
Likewise, a married child does not have the legal possibility of employing a lawyer or of filing for divorce without a legal guardian representing him or her. When Fraidy Reiss explains the lack of prospects to these young girls, she fears the worst: “Some try to kill themselves. So she has only one obsession: to change the law. For this, she started a long-distance race, alerting politicians, legislators, media, citizens, lawyers to encourage them to defend these victims free of charge. His first major supporters: Nicholas Kristof, who writes regularly on the subject in the “New York Times”, and Chelsea Clinton, the daughter of the former president, who is involved with Unchained at Last. #MeToo also helped shed light on her fight against girl marriage, the ultimate expression of patriarchy, she says. Regularly, to make the voices of these children heard, she organizes militant happenings with the members of her NGO: in wedding dresses, chains on the wrists, they take to the steps of such and such a court or local government. Little by little, things are moving forward. Since 2017, Delaware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Minnesota have changed their laws to ban any exceptions that make marriage possible under the age of 18. The State of New York has also passed a law in this direction. Only the governor’s signature is still missing. Elsewhere, the demands have been rejected or are awaiting a vote. “It’s really very frustrating,” gets carried away Fraidy Reiss. The law we are defending doesn’t rob anyone, cost a dollar, and put an end to a human rights violation. “To one who is despairing of such slowness, the other activists remind us that what they have accomplished is already historic. “Yes, I am told that five states is a huge victory,” admits Fraidy Reiss, who only has in mind the 45 others who are still marrying children.
We would love to thank the writer of this article for this incredible web content

I like to read, both online and offline. Every once in a while I come across something truly remarkable. Recently I discovered one such book, and I can’t help but write a few words about it in a form of strong personal recommendation.
I love Ableton Live. It taps into your imagination. There’s so much you can do with Ableton it never ceases to amaze me.
I like to learn and immerse myself with new ideas by watching YouTube videos. For this post I’ve put together a few great Ableton tutorial videos as examples of what is possible when great software design meets creative individuals. Let’s have a look.
I spoke to my friends at Loopmasters and arranged a hefty 20% coupon code for you.
This discount code is exclusive to the readers of Resoundsound.
Great chance to stock up on quality samples!
Last week I asked my email subscribers what kind of content would they like to see here in the future. Your response was overwhelming (a big thank you is in order – I think I’ve got back to most of you by now but apologies if I missed someone!). One of the most common requests I received was to hear more about which plugins, sample packs, books, websites, tools and so on I like to use in my craft.
To answer your call, I have created a new page that lists the things that I use and love the most. I have also included comments for each resource on why I like it/how I am using it.
I’ll be adding more too as time goes by, so you may want to bookmark the page and visit every now and then.
Performing electronic music live is something I have always been interested in, but in the past I always felt the means were too rigid. Maybe I was looking at it the wrong way… But I always felt there was too much pre-planning involved and not enough flexibility, which made it pretty hard for spontaneous creation to happen in a live situation. That’s why in the past I’ve always preferred DJ’ing myself.Continue Reading
Today I am happy and excited to announce the first product ever that I am selling directly through Resoundsound.com!
It is an awesome ebook by a buddy of mine, Zac Citron.
I love Ableton Live. I’ve been using it for about 9 months now and I just keep running into new things. It’s a playground for music producers. I admire the design – it feels like Live is designed from ground up to foster creativity in electronic music production. I love watching how other people are using it.
Youtube is full of tutorials, but it’s not always easy to run into something really interesting or inspiring and well presented. I’ve been bookmarking some good ones since I started learning the software. So here are a few of the best Ableton Live tutorial videos I’ve come across. Have a look – you just might run into a game changer. I know I have.Continue Reading
This is something I keep coming back to again and again. I run into it in my own pursuits, my peers and the precious people who hit me up.
I’ve said it time and time again:
There is good. There is great. There is beautiful. Yes. But forget about perfect. It doesn’t exist. Striving for it will drain you and ultimately stall your progress.
It’s an illusion, a false mindset.Continue Reading
I’ve always been pretty productive, but also always had the problem of not finishing many projects I start. I’ve developed systems to counter this, but never really knew why it happens.
Having loads of unfinished projects is a very common problem and people are constantly hitting me up about it as well.
I recently read this bestseller book by Scott Belsky called “Making Ideas Happen”… And I am not exaggerating when I say it was a complete revelation for me.
Made me realize lots of things, so I wanted to share it with you quickly.
The book succeeds in breaking down the problem of not finishing your projects and shows the path to, well, making ideas happen.
