Last but Not Least – The Final Installment of the FY 2010 Budget
Last week, we also released the Budget Appendix, giving program-by-program information on the Administration’s policies, and also Terminations, Reductions, and Savings, identifying roughly $17 billion in savings for FY 2010 that the Administration has proposed by eliminating or scaling back over 100 programs that don’t work or whose costs are excessive.
These volumes give the complete details for the Administration’s Budget submission and are almost completely in-line with the Budget overview that the Administration submitted in February.
The Budget volumes contain a vast amount of information, which can be daunting to even the most avid budget wonk. Here, I want to boil down how these new Budget volumes compare to the overview released in February, and how this Budget now fits into the ongoing budget process.
Full Budget Compared to February’s Budget Overview
First, let me discuss two changes compared to the February overview:
Deficit projections. OMB projects that the deficit will be about $90 billion higher in FY 2009 and also in 2010 than it did in February. The deficits in these years, now projected to be 12.9 percent and 8.5 percent of GDP, respectively, are driven in large part by the economic crisis inherited by this Administration.
The change in the deficit estimates reflects upward technical revisions in light of new information regarding the collection of receipts, financial stabilization efforts, and other federal programs. (Technical revisions reflect additional data on, or expected changes in, government receipts or expenditures, other than because of changed assumptions about major macroeconomic variables such as the size of the economy, the rate of inflation, or the unemployment rate. The latter are called economic revisions.) Treasury now estimates that overall federal revenue will be less than was projected in February by between $30 billion and $50 billion in each of this year and next. We also have more information about the severity of the financial crisis facing the nation, and this is reflected in new, higher estimates for the cost of financial stabilization efforts undertaken through TARP and by the FDIC.
Over the 10 years from 2010-19, cumulative budget deficits increase by about $140 billion, or an average of about 0.1 percent of GDP. This is largely due to Treasury’s technical revisions of lower projected receipts.
Health reserve fund. The Administration has made a historic commitment to health reform by putting on the table $635 billion in savings to be devoted to paying for health reform this year. The health reserve fund is almost exactly the same size as it was in the in the February overview and is still about evenly divided between Medicare and Medicaid savings and additional revenue. But, as I have discussed elsewhere, the composition of the additional revenue measures has now changed somewhat, with the addition of new enforcement measures and loophole closers to make up for technical re-estimates of the original proposal.
Second, there are many aspects of the Budget that remain the same as in February. Perhaps most importantly:
Key priorities. The Budget provides many new details that were not available in February, but the Budget’s key priorities—and the resources devoted to them—are almost exactly the same as in the February overview. The Budget continues to call for significant and long overdue investments in education, health care reform, and clean energy, while cutting the deficit in half over four years and providing a tax cut to 95 percent of working Americans.
Economic assumptions. The economic assumptions remain the same as in February. The economic assumptions will be revisited as part of the Mid-Session Review this summer, which is the traditional point at which an administration updates its underlying economic assumptions to reflect new information.
The Budget documents released today include a sensitivity analysis, describing the effects of alternative economic assumptions on budget projections. These can be found in Chapter 12 of Analytical Perspectives.
Where This Fits in the Budget Process
The recently passed Congressional budget resolution and the full Budget being released now are both essential documents in the ongoing budget process, but they serve somewhat different functions. The budget resolution sets out a broad framework for Congress to make decisions about specific revenue and funding policies for the remainder of the budget process, whereas the President’s Budget sets out the Administration’s proposals on a program-by-program basis and is the starting point for negotiations over specific appropriations and other fiscal policies.
Even if they aren’t carbon copies, the budget resolution and the full Budget approach many of the Nation’s key challenges in very similar ways—both cut the deficit in half by the end of the President’s first term, while making investments in health care, education, and clean energy. We expect to work closely with Congress in the weeks and months ahead to reach solutions that will meet these priorities and put our Nation on a course toward economic recovery, fiscal discipline, and a new foundation for economic growth.

Maroon 5 was recently giving a concert at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California, when an over-excited fan sprang onto the stage and attacked Adam Levine by swinging her arms around his neck.
At first, Adam responded like you or I would — with shock and horror and a bit of appropriate disgust. But then, presumably remembering that he's famous and therefore being filmed by hundreds of iPhone cameras — or possibly just terrified for his life — he shifts gears. His new approach: to expertly calm the fan down, putting his arm around her until security (finally) shows up. Such a gentleman.
Luckily, Fox News reports, Adam got by with only a scratch on the ear from the overeager fan's fingernail. But, honestly, fingernails are so dirty. So fans really need to chill out.

KVH has announced that it is expanding its VSAT-based Internet of Things (IoT) services for ships, adding remote monitoring and real-time intervention from shore for shipboard systems and equipment.
KVH’s Watch IoT Connectivity as a Service product, introduced last year, provides maritime equipment manufacturers or related stakeholders with access to data from onboard equipment, via a dedicated terminal that provides an independent, air-gapped data flow separate from the vessel’s primary satellite communications system.
The new services to be added to this product include Remote Expert Intervention, a video collaboration application optimised for satellite and designed to enable on-demand remote support sessions between vessels at sea and experts on shore.
The system is designed to allow technicians to offer real-time guidance to onboard crew for troubleshooting, repair and identification of replacement parts, as and when it is required during operations at sea.
“By using deep sea transit time, Remote Expert Intervention goes well beyond simply monitoring the performance of onboard equipment,” said Sven-Eric Brooks, KVH’s Senior Director for IoT Business Development.
“It enables maritime equipment manufacturers to take action and provide real-time support via video, voice, and text, even when the equipment is on a vessel in the middle of the ocean.”


Kyle Michael Upchurch wears angular jeans, abbreviate T’s, circumscribed jackets, and shiny, adherent sneaks. Occasionally, he advisers a tunic-and-leggings combo, too.
Now, the 22-year-old stylist at Century 21 is agog to add an added burst of fashion-forward swag to his accoutrement by bond in a few skirts – and dresses.
And afore you ask, Upchurch said, he’s not gay.
“I adulation women,” he said emphatically, as he aloft eyebrows tweezed into division moons. “I’m experimenting with my style. This is art to me. It’s all about expression.
You don’t accept to airing too far in Center City to see that added adolescent men are attractive like they accord in women’s Vogue. And they’re not alone: They point to such macho celebrities as Kanye West, A$AP Rocky, Justin Bieber, Jared Leto, and Jaden Smith as appearance body mates. (Last month, Smith, son of Hollywood A-listers Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith, donned a floral-print dress at Coachella.)
For these men, it’s not about cross-dressing (many of these clothes were advised for men), and not a absorption of their . Whether they are gay or beeline or transgender or acute – their female is not what makes them accept skirts over suits.
Today, cipher would accept that a woman wears a pantsuit because she is a lesbian, but aback in the 1920s, they ability have. Experts say today’s menswear trends could be the alpha of that aforementioned evolution.
“Gender is abundant added of a amusing class than a biological and animal class with adolescent bodies these days,” said Nancy Hirschmann, administrator of the Alice Paul Center for Research on Women, Gender, and Female at the University of Pennsylvania.
The men say they alone are chargeless spirits, artists, if you will, who don’t appetite to absolute their accouterment options to acceptable and been-the-same-forever clothing: suits, ties, khakis, and polos.
“I wore this to New York Appearance Week, and I was mobbed,” said 24-year-old Ricky Cantando, of Malvern, as he showed off the alternation of a spaghetti-strapped Rick Owens atramentous gown.
“But I do it in a adult way,” he said. “I don’t abrasion makeup. I don’t barber my legs. I’m not aggravating to be a woman. In fact, I absolutely like actuality a guy. I aloof like the way this all looks.”
Menswear has a women’s abrasion back the 1920s, back Chanel about created the suit. In the 1970s, Yves Saint Laurent alien Le Smoking – the women’s adaptation of the tuxedo. And today, women in pants are about added commonplace than women in red lipstick.
But, historically, men’s appearance hasn’t been about as acceptant to women’s wear. In the 1980s, David Bowie wore eyeliner, and Prince wore heels, but these looks rarely fabricated it offstage.
Then, in the aboriginal 2000s, afterwards Thom Browne started slimming bottomward suits, Paris-based Rick Owens showed men the ability of layering and angry the T-shirt into a knee-length tunic.
With anniversary consecutive division came added gender-fluid curve aimed at men. Shayne Oliver’s accepted abatement 2015 Hood by Air accumulating includes pleated dresses and tube skirts with thigh-high splits.
Dao-Yi Chow and Maxwell Osborne – both called artistic admiral at DKNY aftermost ages – put their models in ankle-length, palazzo-style pants commutual with checkerboard tunics for their abatement 2015 Public School aerodrome show.
The trickle-down to boilerplate appearance is austere business. Such labels as H&M and Zara advertise menswear leggings, tunics, and alike skirts for guys attractive to abate their sartorial edge. According to the NPD Group, menswear continues to be the fastest-growing articulation of apparel.
As added affidavit of pop culture’s accepting of women’s wear-like menswear, attending at our macho celebrities – not alone adequate cutting skinnies and arduous sheaths, but additionally acclimatized man bags, agitation man buns, and wrapping themselves in beyond scarves on date and Instagram.
Two weeks ago, Chanel appear photos of its pre-fall 2015 attack featuring archetypal Cara Delevingne and Pharrell Williams. The closing sits, legs crossed, in a brace of knee-high, forest-green suede boots and layers of continued necklaces, his cheeks contoured to perfection.
“When I saw Pharrell, I thought, why isn’t he in a dress?” said 23-year-old Stephen Michael Quick of South Philadelphia, who wears thrift-store skirts. “You are the face of Chanel this season. Throw some array in it.”
Still, while artists, creatives, and those who abutment them embrace menswear’s newfound freedom, others accurate disgust. On a contempo brilliant afternoon, Quick and Cantando absolved forth Eighth Street in skirts and were met with stares, glares, and arch shakes, mostly from the men they passed.
“Clothing is one of the means we arresting our apotheosis of cultural norms, and that’s aggressive to people,” Hirschmann said. Back addition such as Jaden Smith chooses a dress but says he isn’t gay, those norms are again challenged on a common stage.
These kinds of choices become alike added analytical in the atramentous community, area acutely any appearance best can be advised abnormally in the media, in their community, and at home: Hoodies are violent. Baggy jeans are lazy. Accoutrement are uppity. Skirts are soft.
But acknowledgment to such NBA players as Dwyane Wade and Russell Westbrook, bodies are acceptable acclimatized to beneath adamant notions of uality, said Mark Anthony Neal, a abettor of African American studies at Duke University. In fact, he said, a added feminine, softer attending is a way atramentous men “can assure themselves from actuality targets.”
“As atramentous men, we are so restricted,” Quick said. “Any appearance accommodation we accomplish can get us killed, so we tend not to accurate ourselves. But that’s adverse to us, too. Very harmful.”
Sometimes, the affidavit men abrasion women’s accouterment is absolutely simple. Ishmael Jaramillo of South Philadelphia wears women’s Carmen Marc Valvo blazers over amid tanks because of his slight ability – he’s almost 5 anxiety tall.
“Jackets are too broad, too long, and they aloof annoyance at the waist,” the 22-year-old appearance architecture abettor said.
Cantando, who is gay, brand how he looks in wedges – the acumen that, at 14, he assertive his mother to buy him a brace of Skechers. And 27-year-old Mark Freeman, of Bala Cynwyd, who describes himself as ually ambiguous, wants to prove that rappers can discharge agreeable blaze in skirts. Upchurch, of West Philadelphia, credibility out that medieval men – such as the sword-wielding characters in HBO’s Game of Thrones – and age-old Egyptians disqualified empires in skirts and kilts.
They accede that it boils bottomward to owning their identity.
“At the end of the day, I’m a man,” said Mark Freeman’s brother, Mickey Freeman, a gay, 29-year-old appearance stylist who about wears leggings beneath skirts – in all black, of advance – back administration clients.
“I accessible doors for women. I booty affliction of my own. But I grew up in fashion, and it’s about me actuality chargeless to dress the way I appetite to dress.”

It is also prescribed to relieve postoperative pain and pain related to chronic conditions such as arthritis and cancer. Also, paracetamol is often used in combination with other pain relief medications, such as opioids. In children, paracetamol is often the first choice for reducing fever and relieving pain, due to its safety profile and effectiveness. Finally, paracetamol can also be used to reduce pain and fever in pregnant women, although it is important to consult a doctor before taking any medication during pregnancy. Overall, paracetamol is a versatile and widely used medication that can help relieve pain and fever in many different medical settings.
C- Recommended dosages and precautions to take:
Recommended dosages of paracetamol vary depending on the age, weight and medical condition of the patient. In general, the maximum recommended daily dose for adults is 4,000 milligrams, divided into doses of 1,000 milligrams every six hours at most. For children, doses are based on their weight, with a maximum limit of 60 milligrams per kilogram of body weight per day. It is important not to exceed the maximum recommended dose, as this can cause unwanted side effects, such as liver damage.
It is also important to take certain precautions when using paracetamol. For example, alcohol should be avoided while taking paracetamol, as it can increase the risk of liver damage. In addition, people with liver or kidney problems, as well as pregnant or breastfeeding women, should consult their doctor before taking paracetamol. Finally, it is important to read medicine labels carefully to ensure that paracetamol is not present in other medicines you are taking, as this can lead to an accidental overdose. By taking the necessary precautions and following the recommended dosages, paracetamol can be a safe and effective medicine for relieving pain and fever.
III- The side effects of paracetamol:
A- Common side effects:
Although paracetamol is generally considered safe and effective, it can cause some side effects in some people. The most common side effects include nausea, vomiting, upset stomach, and headache. In rare cases, paracetamol can also cause serious allergic reactions, such as skin rashes, itching, dizziness and difficulty breathing. Additionally, taking high doses of paracetamol can damage the liver, which can lead to life-threatening complications. To minimize the risk of side effects, it is important to follow the recommended dosages and not to take paracetamol in combination with other medications without consulting a healthcare professional.
B- Serious side effects:
Although paracetamol is considered safe when used in recommended dosages, it can cause serious side effects in some people. The most serious side effect associated with paracetamol is liver damage, which can occur after prolonged use or at doses higher than recommended. This liver damage can lead to serious complications, such as liver failure, which can be life-threatening. Other serious paracetamol side effects include severe allergic reactions, such as anaphylactic shock, which can cause difficulty breathing, low blood pressure, and cardiac arrest.
It is important to seek immediate medical attention if serious paracetamol side effects are suspected. Symptoms of liver injury may include fatigue, loss of appetite, jaundice, and abdominal pain, while symptoms of a severe allergic reaction may include rash, itching, dizziness, and difficulty breathing. breathe. In case of severe symptoms, emergency hospitalization may be necessary. It is important to follow the recommended dosages and not to take paracetamol in combination with other medications without consulting a healthcare professional to minimize the risk of serious side effects.
C- Precautions to take before using paracetamol:
Before taking paracetamol, it is important to take certain precautions to minimize the risk of side effects and drug interactions. First of all, it is important to follow the recommended dosages and not to exceed the maximum dose of 4 grams per day, unless otherwise directed by a healthcare professional. Also, it is important not to take paracetamol in combination with other medicines containing paracetamol or other painkillers without consulting a healthcare professional, as this can increase the risk of side effects and liver damage.

Pregnant and breastfeeding women should also consult their doctor before taking paracetamol, as high doses can be harmful to the fetus or infant. Finally, it is important not to take paracetamol if you are allergic to this painkiller or any of its ingredients. By taking these precautions, you can minimize the risk of side effects and potential complications when using paracetamol.
IV- Paracetamol as an analgesic:
A- Action of paracetamol on pain:
Paracetamol is a common painkiller used to relieve mild to moderate pain. It works by blocking the production of prostaglandins, chemicals in the body that cause pain and inflammation. Unlike other painkillers such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), paracetamol does not have a significant anti-inflammatory effect, which makes it less effective in treating inflammatory pain. However, paracetamol is considered safer than NSAIDs because it does not cause gastrointestinal bleeding or other common NSAID side effects. Paracetamol is therefore often preferred for the treatment of mild to moderate pain in people with gastrointestinal problems or heart disease.
B- Comparison with other analgesics:
Paracetamol is one of the most commonly used painkillers to relieve mild to moderate pain. However, there are other types of painkillers such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and opioids that are also used to treat pain. NSAIDs are similar to paracetamol in that they also block the production of prostaglandins, but they also have anti-inflammatory properties which make them more effective in treating inflammatory pain. NSAIDs can, however, cause side effects such as gastrointestinal bleeding and heart problems in some people.
Opioids, on the other hand, are stronger pain relievers that are usually reserved for severe to chronic pain. They work by binding to opioid receptors in the brain to block the transmission of pain. However, opioids have significant side effects, including addiction, constipation, and drowsiness.
Overall, paracetamol is considered safer than NSAIDs and opioids for the treatment of mild to moderate pain. However, it is important to consider the pros and cons of each type of painkiller before deciding on the appropriate treatment for your pain. Your doctor can help you choose the most appropriate painkiller for your situation.
C- Use in pediatrics and in the elderly:
Paracetamol is commonly used in children and the elderly to relieve pain and reduce fever. In children, paracetamol is often preferred over NSAIDs due to its superior safety profile. Children can take paracetamol from the age of two months, and it is available as an easy-to-dose oral suspension. However, it is important to follow the dosage instructions according to the age and weight of the child, in order to avoid overdoses which can be dangerous.
In the elderly, paracetamol is also a popular choice for the treatment of mild to moderate pain. However, it is important to note that older people may have impaired liver or kidney function, which can affect how paracetamol is metabolized and eliminated from their body. This can increase the risk of side effects such as liver or kidney damage. Therefore, doses of paracetamol in the elderly should be adjusted according to their state of health and their renal and hepatic function. It is recommended to consult a doctor before using paracetamol in the elderly.
V- Paracetamol as an antipyretic:
A- Action of paracetamol on fever:
Paracetamol is an antipyretic drug, which means it works to lower fever. It works by blocking the production of prostaglandins, chemicals produced by the body in response to infection or inflammation, which can cause fever. By blocking the production of prostaglandins, paracetamol can help reduce body temperature and relieve symptoms associated with fever, such as chills and sweating.
Paracetamol is often used to treat fever in children and adults. It is considered a safe and effective choice for lowering body temperature, but it is important to follow dosage instructions to avoid overdose. If the fever persists or if it is accompanied by other symptoms, such as severe headache or abdominal pain, it is recommended to consult a medical professional for appropriate treatment.
B- Comparison with other antipyretics:
Paracetamol is an antipyretic commonly used to treat fever. It is considered safe and effective, but there are other antipyretics that can also be used. Ibuprofen is another medication commonly used to treat fever, as well as pain and inflammation. Unlike paracetamol, ibuprofen belongs to a class of drugs called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). NSAIDs may be more effective at reducing fever and relieving pain, but they can also cause side effects such as stomach pain, nausea, and vomiting. The choice between paracetamol and ibuprofen often depends on the underlying cause of the fever and personal preference.
C- Use in pediatrics and in the elderly:
Paracetamol is a drug commonly used in children and the elderly. In children, paracetamol is used to reduce fever and relieve pain associated with illnesses such as the flu, sore throats and ear infections. It is important to follow the recommended dosages for children based on their weight and age to avoid unwanted side effects. In older people, paracetamol is often preferred over NSAIDs because it is less likely to cause side effects such as stomach pain and gastrointestinal bleeding. However, doses should be adjusted based on liver and kidney function, as older people may be more sensitive to the drug’s effects.
A- Summary of the main points of the article:
In summary, the article covered several aspects of paracetamol, an analgesic and antipyretic drug commonly used in the treatment of pain and fever. The definition and pharmacological properties of paracetamol were explained, as well as its main medical uses. Recommended dosages and precautions to take before using paracetamol were also discussed, along with common and serious side effects. The article also compared paracetamol with other analgesics and antipyretics and explained its action on pain and fever. Finally, the article highlighted the importance of taking special precautions when using paracetamol in children and the elderly due to their sensitivity to the effects of the drug. In sum,
B- Recommendations for the use of paracetamol:
Appropriate use of paracetamol is essential to minimize the risk of unwanted side effects. Recommendations for its use include taking the recommended dosage based on age, weight, and medical condition, as well as limiting the duration of use. It is also important not to exceed the maximum recommended dose and not to take other medicines containing paracetamol to avoid a potentially dangerous overdose. Patients should be aware of the common and serious side effects of paracetamol and monitor their condition while using this medication. Pregnant or breastfeeding women, as well as people with liver or kidney disease, should consult their doctor before using paracetamol.
C- Suggestions for future research:
Although paracetamol is widely used and considered a safe and effective drug, there are still areas that need further research. Further studies are needed to better understand the mechanisms of action of paracetamol, in particular its analgesic and antipyretic effects. Future research may also focus on the interactions of paracetamol with other medications, as well as the use of paracetamol in vulnerable populations such as patients with chronic diseases. Studies are also needed to examine the effectiveness of paracetamol at higher doses than the currently recommended maximum dose. Additionally, research can be conducted to develop alternative forms of paracetamol, such as long-acting formulations, to improve the management of chronic pain. Future research may also focus on the impact of paracetamol on public health, including examining prescription and use patterns, as well as effects on consumption of other painkillers and fever reducers.

Motorola has joined forces with Italian stylists Momodesign to produce a motorbike helmut with a bult-in Bluetooth headset.
Ericsson may have stopped producing and designing Bluetooth chipsets but the technology seems to be increasing in popularity and is finding its way into parts that it previously hasn’t reached.
A great example is the first motorcycle helmet to integrate a Bluetooth headset.
A collaboration between Motorola and Italian designers Momodesign, what’s really remarkable is that no one has thought of it before.
While car drivers are used to be able to drive and talk at the same, up to now it’s not been possible for motorcycle drivers. This could be very useful for those who need to stay in touch while out and about, such as couriers, who can now talk on the phone without having to stop and get off their bikes. Taking and making calls is done by controls located on the cover of the helmet, which include functions such as answer, end, redial, voice dial and volume.
Built on the award-winning Motorola HS810, the microphone equipped headset contains a noise reducing microphone to help minimise wind and traffic noise.
Battery life is given at five hours talk time and 100 hours standby and the headset can be removed from the helmut for charging.
The Motorola wireless helmet headset will also be available as an aftermarket kit. The kit, containing the helmet adapter, Bluetooth headset module and charger, will attach to your own helmet with the included 3M adhesive.
Both the Momodesign helmut and the after-market units are compatible with any Bluetooth enabled handset.
Pricing is unannounced at present but availability is expected in early Q1 2005.

The Budget is Coming! The Budget is Coming!
It’s all about the budget, stupid – not corporate tax cuts
By L. Ian MacDonald, Special to The Montreal Gazette January 31, 2011 9:01 AM MONTREAL – As the House of Commons resumes today, Stephen Harper might reflect that he has had the kind of January in 2011 that he would have had in 2010 had he not lost an entire month to blowback over proroguing the session to “recalibrate” the government’s agenda.
This month has been different, with the Conservative government leveraging the six-week holiday recess to make announcements, and with the prime minister joining Finance Minister Jim Flaherty on a pre-budget listening tour.
And the budget is all that matters in the coming weeks. Everything else in the media, from poll numbers to attack ads, is just background noise.
The opposition leaders used the last week of the recess to stake out their differentiated positions on the budget, and their terms for supporting it.
Michael Ignatieff says the Liberals will oppose the budget because of corporate tax cuts that won’t be in it. The corporate tax cuts were already legislated in 2007, and when fully implemented at 15 per cent in 2012, will leave Canada with the lowest rates in the G7.
This is a huge source of comparative advantage over the United States, which has a federal corporate tax rate of 35 per cent. And there’s no way the U.S. can reduce that at this stage of the game, given a deficit that’s 10 per cent of GDP and a debt that will cross 100 per cent of output next year.
As Jack Layton pointed out the other day, Ignatieff and the Liberals didn’t oppose the corporate tax cuts in 2007. Most of them hid behind the curtains and stayed out of the House because they were terrified at the prospect of an election under Stéphane Dion. (They weren’t wrong about that.)
The suggestion that Flaherty would rescind the corporate tax cuts, one of his proudest achievements, is beyond ludicrous. It’s simply stupid.
Depending on the day of the week, Iggy says it’s either time to get rid of Harper or that he doesn’t want an election. But he’s prepared to trigger one over something that won’t be in the budget, and has zero prospect of being rescinded.
In trying to differentiate themselves from the Conservatives on this issue, the Liberals have inadvertently played to their strengths – competence, the economy and jobs. One study, by the Canadian Manufacturers and Exporters, says the corporate tax cuts will create 100,000 new jobs in the next two years in an economy that has already regained nearly all the jobs lost in the Great Recession.
Investment goes where there’s comparative advantage, and Canada’s advantages include a highly skilled and mobile workforce, an abundance of resources and commodities the world wants, and the lowest corporate tax rates in the industrialized world.
By making this an issue, the Liberals have empowered the Conservatives to tell this story. As for the Liberal narrative, freeing up funds for families, it has been lost in a needless discussion of corporate tax rates.
The Liberals might have stolen a page from the New Democratic Party’s playbook – make the rich pay – but that doesn’t mean Layton has to go along with them. As Layton was only too happy to remind the Liberals, they had their opportunity to vote against the phased-in cuts, four years ago, and didn’t.
In other words, he isn’t playing their game. He has his own agenda of looking at the budget as a whole. While he was at it, he took his own finance critic, Tom Mulcair, into the boards for suggesting it was “highly unlikely” the NDP would support a budget with corporate tax cuts in it.
“Now you’re into a world of probabilities when you use words like ‘unlikely,’ ” Layton said.
Or as Bill Clinton famously said: “It depends on what the meaning of the word ‘is’ is.”
What Layton sees here is an opportunity to exercise the balance of power, and avoid an election. If he can get some breaks for seniors and low-income Canadians, he will clearly support the Conservatives on the budget.

When he's not brewing, Andy creates fine small-batch music by playing bass with several local groups, and he builds custom motorcycles and hot rods in his garage.
Brewmaster C. Andrew Brown (Andy to his friends) got into brewing the way many professional craft brewers become interested in beer, homebrewing at the young age of 20. The natural question followed: "How can I make this hobby into a career?" Brewing school came next as well as stints at breweries across the front range of Colorado and his home state of Maine. Andy has been professionally brewing award-winning beers for over ten years and guides the Wynkoop into a promising and beery future.

Among other things, Pagani is known for its endless special editions. Now that the run of 100 Huayra coupes have been built and 20 Huayra BCs are soon entering production, we're expecting to see a slew of limited-run versions.This is the first one, the Huayra Pearl, which was built for one (presumably) wealthy customer.
Pagani hasn't announced too many specifics on the Huayra Pearl yet, but you can determine a lot from the pictures provided. It looks to be based on the standard Huayra, but with a different aerodynamic treatment front and rear. The twin rear spoilers, an homage to the 2002 Zonda S, are especially striking, as is the transparent blue carbon fiber finish.
Arguably, the most notable detail is the roof-mounted air intake, which calls to mind the 2009 Zonda Cinque. Otherwise, we're left guessing about the other details.
This might be the first ultra-exclusive Huayra we've seen, but it assuredly won't be the last. A Huayra Roadster is expected to make its debut this summer, and a Huayra with a manual transmission is in the pipeline. As long as he has customers with extra cash, Horacio Pagani will crank out unbelievable one-offs like the Pearl.

In February this year, before I learned about the nature of the vaccines, (and being 76 with emphysema) I was in the avant garde. I took the first jab of AZ and straight away had severe reactions which lasted ten days, I recovered eventually and was told it would be twelve weeks before the second one…
About six weeks later I was offered and took the second AZ shot, but with a little more knowledge of the dangers. The reactions were disastrous, my hands and feet were either frozen, numb or burning, and pretty much useless for two weeks, I feared I would never play again, (I suffer with peripheral neuropathy and should never have gone near the needle.)
But the propaganda said the vaccine was safe for everyone….

What are the specific operating methods for diesel generators?
As we all know, diesel generator is a professional power generation equipment. It is not allowed to operate without professional staff. To operate a diesel generator set, it must be operated, stopped, and powered by a qualified electrician approved by the relevant department. Specific operation methods for diesel generators. Let's find out together.
1) Automation of a single diesel generator set for emergency power supply. Keep the voltage and frequency constant during operation.
2) The generator set should automatically maintain the state of emergency readiness (automatic charging of batteries; automatic charging of gas cylinders), and pre-lubrication automatically before starting the diesel engine.
3) When the diesel generator set needs to start, run or stop, it can realize automatic start, run or stop according to the automatic control instruction or remote control instruction.
4) During the operation of the generator set, if there are abnormal conditions such as overload, short circuit, overspeed, overfrequency, high water temperature, low oil pressure, etc., it can be automatically protected.
5) The generator set should be equipped with acousto-optic signal systems that indicate normal operation and abnormal operation. These indicators and alarm signals indicate the operation of the unit.
6) The generator set should be able to run continuously for 4 hours in the unattended condition.
(2) In addition to meeting the requirements of the first-level automatic and motorized units, the second-level automatic diesel generators should also have the following functions:
1) The diesel generator set should have the function of automatic replenishment of fuel oil, oil and cooling water.
2) The generator set can run continuously for 240 hours in the unattended condition.
(3) In addition to meeting the requirements of the first and second-level automated generating units, the three-level automated diesel generating units must also have the following functions:
1) When the self-starting of the generator set fails, the self-starting control program system should be able to automatically transfer the starting instruction to another standby unit.
2) The generator set should be able to complete the automatic parallelization and disassembly of two generator sets of the same model and specifications according to automatic control instructions or remote control instructions.
3) When generating units run in parallel, they should be able to automatically distribute the active and reactive power output.
4) In addition to the various protections of the first and second level automation units, the generator set should also have functions such as reverse power protection.
Three sets of three three-stage automated generator sets can form an automated power station. Two of them are used as common power supply units and one is used as a backup. Therefore, functions related to parallel operation should be added. The automatic control system should automatically start, stop, juxtapose, dismantle, and perform load distribution for three diesel generator sets based on load and operating conditions. The fault is divided into two levels: the first level is a minor fault, and uninterrupted power supply should be realized, that is, the standby generator set is put into parallel operation, and then the faulty generator set is stopped. The second level is a serious fault. When the faulty generator set is stopped in an emergency, the backup generator set is immediately put into operation, and the power supply is allowed to be interrupted for the secondary load.
- Blue smoke, fire reason: It means that the engine is burning oil. There are three types of reasons: first, the piston ring goes opposite, and the oil comes in the cylinder; the second is the oil level of the oil pan of the atmosphere filter, which leads the ring. The height of the groove; Third, the gap between the duct and the valve stem is too poor. Expulsion idea: Adjust the piston ring so that the opening teeth of the ring are staggered 120 degrees or 180 degrees, and the opening teeth of the ring should avoid the piston pin hole and the side pressure is poor. Adjust the height of the oil level of the oil filter of the atmosphere filter below the height of the annular groove; if the clearance between the duct and the valve stem is too poor, replace the component and reduce the clearance. The normal mutual assistance clearance between the two is 0.0
- Before starting, you should check whether the fuel volume of the fuel tank is rich, and there is no oil leakage in each oil pipe and the discussion area; whether the cooling system water is rich, clean and leak-free, and whether the fan belt is tight or not. The internal combustion engine and generator drive parts should be connected and trusted. The wires of the input line are well-insulated, complete and effective in all aspects. After starting, it should run at low speed for 3 to 5 minutes. After the temperature and oil pressure wheel are normal, the initial work can be done. The generator should be no different in the speed increase. Ring, the slip ring and commutator are well brushed, no jumping and sparking phenomenon. After the operation is stable and the frequency and voltage reach the rated value, power can be supplied to the outside.
- The diesel engine is working normally, but the generator fails to generate electricity or the voltage is very low. This may be due to the components associated with the generator, such as: the exciter is damaged, and the excitation voltage cannot be supplied. The excitation current is taken in. The rotor's dead center residual magnetism is weakened or declining. It will make the generator unable to generate electricity or the transmission voltage is extremely low. The right to respond is usually: use an appropriate DC voltage and directly connect to the excitation winding according to the polarity Magnetization. Carefully inspect the exciter and the cyclotron rectifier, find abnormal components or windings, and replace them for restoration. The generator's transmission voltage is unstable, and
- In the power generation industry in China, we have been working hard, pursuing the concept of quality and service, and for the sake of customers, the full power generator chooses China and your generator is a professional housekeeper. At present, the diesel generator set maintenance market refers to damage inspection and routine maintenance. Two aspects: after maintenance refers to the failure of the diesel generator, there are problems with various accessories, such as replacing the generator or

LED Grow Lights for Agricultural Lighting
Indoor herbs and plants grow optimally under indoor grow lights, and modern LEDs are ideal for agricultural lighting. By using LED lamps for your agricultural lighting needs, you can achieve efficiencies that are between five and 10 times higher than using traditional metal halide lamps. The reason for this is LEDs emit the red and blue wavelengths required by plants to produce chlorophyll and to grow strong and healthy flowers and fruits.
Using LEDs for agricultural lighting is ideal becausethey do not emit a lot of heat, making it easier for you to maintain the perfect ambient temperature for your indoor plants. You will also find your plants require less water because of the fact that the LEDs are much cooler than conventional grow lights and less nutrients. Fortunately LightRabbit boasts a wide selection of the most modern LEDs to make your job that much easier. Let’s take a look at your options.
Tube LED Grow Lights
LED grow tubes are easy to use with an input voltage of 240V but only consumes a fraction of the electricity used by conventional grow lights. They has an average life span of 50,000 hours and a wide beam angle of 120 degrees, ensuring maximum growth using minimal electricity.
UFO LED Grow Lights
These RoHS certified LED grow lights have an input voltage of 240V and uses minimal electricity. They are not dimmable and can last up to 30 years, making it a worthwhile long-term investment for the self-sustainable grower.
High Powered LED Grow Lights
High Powered LED Grow Lights are available in a variety of wattage power and feature 120° wide beam angles. It is recommended that 300W grow lights are positioned at least 16 to 30 inches from the top of the canopy. 600W grow lights should be kept at least 24 to 26 inches from the top as they emits a more intense light. If you place your lights too close to the plants, they could stunt the plant’s growth. If they are too far away it could cause your plants to stretch.
Visit our website to find out more about LightRabbit’s agricultural lighting solutions and take the first steps to energy efficiency and self-sustainability.

Readers of Ash Road gain the utmost respect for the power of fire. Yet, the most important lessons to be learned from the novel come not from the natural disaster itself but from the characters’ responses to it. In Ash Road, Southall provides a painfully realistic view of how individuals cope with an extraordinary event. The reader vicariously experiences the frenzied emotions and panic of both children and adults and witnesses how in the fight for survival humans can exhibit both their worst and their best traits. The general portrayal is bleak, but Southall does allow some room for the characters to demonstrate growth, especially the young. Unlike the adults, the children mature as a result of their ordeal. As Peter ran to seek his grandmother, he knew “that he was running into manhood and leaving childhood behind.” He accepted Gran’s hug as a man. As Graham and Lorna faced the fire in the carrot paddock, they knew “that they would continue to know each other for the rest of their lives.” The bond that they have formed during the crisis will give Graham the strength to admit his mistake and Lorna the pride and dignity to meet whatever life would give her. Gran, on the other hand, is merely “confused and revived,” and Grandpa Tanner feels disappointment that he is still alive.
The story has the structure of a live-action television report as it moves from views of the fire to focus on one character after another as they respond to the events of the day. The speed of the fire seems to control the pacing...

Recently, we mentioned reclaimed cardboard art, the kind of stuff that's perfect for your green boardroom, but here's another neat idea, this time from Studio Crank. It's also a comically ironic idea: a waste paper basket made of 100% recycled cardboard. It's called the "Chuck" Waste Paper Basket based on the notion that tons of reusable materials are typically chucked into landfills.

This Brooklin, Maine home, designed by architect Adam Kalkin, may not be brand new to the green scene (it was built in 2003), but its unique design still looks so fresh today that I had to write about it. The beautiful home stretches the boundaries of modern design and is truly a work of art. It was created by stacking a dozen orange "reclaimed" shipping containers in a T-shape while replacing some of the steel pannels with large windows looking out over the rocky peninsula to Blue Hill Bay.

SCDR Adoption Information
Why choose adoption?
1.5 million reasons why. That is the number of adoptable dogs and cats who are still euthanized each year in the United States simply because too few people spay and neuter, too many pets come into shelters and too few people choose to adopt. This number could be reduced dramatically if more people adopted pets instead of buying them. When you choose adoption, you save your adopted pet and open up space for another animal who might need it. Two lives saved by your choice to adopt! It really does have an impact! How many people in your sphere of influence will then choose adoption because of your example? The ripple effect from your decision will save many lives!
The SCDR Difference:
When you choose to adopt through South Charlotte Dog Rescue you can be assured that our goal is to work with you to find the right dog to fit your family and lifestyle. We are committed to the animals in our care and will choose the best possible applicant for each dog based on their personality and needs. SCDR is an adoption agency for animals in need but we also are a placement agency in that we are looking for the best fit for each dog. We are seeking adopters who will provide our pups the best chance at a long and happy life in one home. We never want our animals to wind up back in a shelter or otherwise abandoned which is why it is our policy to always take back our dogs if the need arises. It doesn’t matter if it’s been 2 weeks or 2 years they are always welcome!
How do I adopt a pet?
First take a LOOK at all the wonderful pups we have available for adoption! Consider the age, temperament and personality that will best fit your family and lifestyle as well as the amount of time you have in the day to spend with your new pup. Then submit your application HERE.
Applicant must be 25 years of age at time of adoption. All other animals in the home, past and present, must be spayed or neutered, up to date on vaccinations, monthly heartworm prevention and flea/tick prevention. SCDR does NOT require a fence for every adoption. We DO require a fence on a case by case basis depending on a dog’s particular personality and needs.
Once your application has been submitted our adoption counselors will send you an email confirmation within 24 hours. Application review can take anywhere from 2 days to 1 week depending on the season and volume of applications being submitted. Once your application has been processed a counselor will discuss with you the type of personality that will best fit your family and lifestyle and schedule a home visit. In the interim we greatly encourage you to attend our local adoption events to meet the pups in person and introduce yourself to the team! Once the home visit has been completed and approved, an adoption day will be scheduled.
SCDR is 100% volunteer driven and our volunteers are working hard every day to communicate as quickly as possible. Often times putting in 60+ hours per week in their efforts to stay on top of the volume of applications. We appreciate your patience & understanding as we seek the best homes for the dogs in our care. Don’t be afraid to follow up with us! Website glitches do occur so if you haven’t heard from us please send us an email to make sure we received your application.
A few things you can do to help us speed up the process:
– Add email@example.com to your approved email list or keep an eye on your spam folder just in case our email response gets stuck in there.
– Make sure your personal references are friends, coworkers, dog sitters etc. (not family members!) and let them know to expect a call from an SCDR adoption counselor.
– It is important, if you’ve had an animal within the last 5 years, that your vet reference is listed! Notify your vet’s office that you are in the process of adopting a new pet so they have your approval to provide a reference.
The adoption fee for SCDR pups is $295. This includes:
– All age appropriate shots (DHLPP, Bordatella, Rabies) up to the date of adoption (puppies must have minimally 2 rounds of puppy shots prior to adoption)
– Spay or neuter surgery at minimally 5 months of age
– Removal of rear dew claws when under anesthesia for spay/neuter
– Repair of inguinal hernias when under anesthesia for spay/neuter
– Heartworm prevention or when necessary heartworm treatment for heartworm positive dogs
– Flea/tick prevention
– Microchip & subscription
– All other medically appropriate treatments that are required during their time in foster care
Does $295 cover all of those things? No, of course not. This is why our fundraisers and donors are so important! They help us bridge the gap between the adoption fee and the real cost of providing the level of care that we pride ourselves on here at SCDR. We are committed to providing the highest level of veterinary care as well as quality food and treats for our pups to give them the best start to a long and healthy life!
Senior dog adoption fees are determined based on health, length of time in rescue and age.
How to avoid picking the wrong pet:
Our adoption counselors will partner with you to ensure we are placing the right dog into your home and family. Things you can do to help us help you are:
– Talk to the adoption counselor about your daily & weekly schedule
– Don’t get your heart set on a specific breed, type of dog or “look” that seems like the best match for your home, without taking into consideration the often WIDE variation in physical and personality characteristics of individual pets. Make sure to spend time and get to know the actual pet you are thinking of adopting as much as possible, before deciding they are the right pet for you.
– Don’t adopt a dog without doing some self-reflection, planning and research first. How much time do you have in your life right now to bring in a new pet that may require training? Are you financially ready if your new pet is injured, or gets sick?
– Don’t make an impulse decision on-site. It can be overwhelming when there are so many adorable furry faces begging you with their sad yes to “pick me pick me”! If you get emotional in a rescue setting, take a more objective family member or friend along to make sure you are making as good and rational choice of a match for your lifestyle and pet experience. Our adoption counselors are ready and willing to help you make the best decision for your family.
– Don’t let your kids sway you to pick an inappropriate dog. While involving your children in the pet adoption selection and adoption process is a wonderful way to teach them about responsible pet ownership and many other important life lessons, you as the adult need to make sure the pet you adopt is a good selection.
