Within the strategies that the business sector in Colombia and in the world has been assuming to face the shortage of talent, which mainly afflicts the technological field, interim has been used, a specialized service designed to connect employers with suitable profiles and trained to perform specific tasks in a given time.
This solution appears as an alternative evidenced by Experis, ManpowerGroup brand talent expert specializing in IT and technology solutionsat a time when 80% of employers report progress towards digitization, according to their study ‘The Great Realization’.
Currently, the growth of technological ventures in Colombia contributes to positioning the country as one of the most important in the continent, with more than 1,100 startups that, according to Innpulsa, raised more than 800 million dollars in financing in 2021. A positive figure for the entrepreneurial ecosystem, but it also demands from this sector the ability to respond to market expectations.
“Today business growth depends on having the right people in the right place. We know that specialized professional talent is the differentiating factor and drives success, since companies that adapt technology to their processes are 26 percent more profitable than their competitors”, says Ricardo Morales, CEO of ManpowerGroup’s Experis.
This executive adds that they have managed to diagnose what are the technological skills and the main roles that organizations and enterprises demand today: IT project managers, software developers, cybersecurity analysts, specialists in artificial intelligence and machine learning.
Given this scenario, this firm, thanks to its deep knowledge of the industry and the challenges it faces, has designed strategies to promote business growth, based on technology through the interim.by having highly specialized professional talent solutions to cover the specific and temporary needs of organizations.
The Interim provides temporary contingent services of the highest quality, guaranteed and supported by unique processes and a talent base empowered by a true national reach. Agility, solidity, technology, are some of the attributes that made Experis the Talent providers par excellence in the World of Work.
And it is that this tool allows managing the current crises of the labor market, since according to Morales, the shortage of talent is at the most critical point of the last 15 years, since 69 percent of entrepreneurs worldwide report not find the candidates they need, especially in the IT sector.
For this, in times of frank economic recovery after the ravages of the pandemic, recognizing the importance of implementing these solutions from specialized brands in the field to respond to the challenges of the labor context in Colombia is a reasonable step for companies seeking to improve their productivity by generating efficient responses for a limited time.

So. This recipe. Yeah, it’s fan-freaking-tastic! I made a batch of this strawberry pineapple jam this summer to take to the farmer’s market and sell. It definitely did!! I immediately made another batch, which again sold out, and I even had a lady buy an ENTIRE batch of it!
The strawberries are ridonkulously good, and I love that they pair it with the pineapple. It’s not something that you see everyday, which I think people liked. I know that this would be fabulous on some vanilla ice cream. But then again, you just can’t beat it on a hot biscuit with butter.
The recipe is super simple, and it will definitely be a part of my rotation next summer too. I’m thinking one more batch before the winter, so I can actually put some in my OWN pantry 😉 . I also think this would be a nice addition to my Christmas baskets, but we will see. There’s another strawberry jam recipe that I will be sharing soon (as soon as I get pictures!!) that everyone raves about, too.

Uruguay supports peace solution of Nagorno Karabakh conflict
“Uruguay supports the negotiations held within the framework of the OSCE Minsk Group and advocates for peaceful solution to Nagorno Karabakh conflict”.
As Azerbaijani media informs Uruguay’s Foreign Minister Luis Almagro said during his meeting with Azerbaijan’s Ambassador to Argentina and Uruguay Mammad Ahmadzadeh. Azerbaijani press quotes the spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Azerbaijan Elman Abdullayev.
Abdullayev said Ambassador Ahmadzadeh met Luis Almagro in Montevideo to discuss the current situation and development prospects of bilateral relations, the development of political dialogue and bilateral contractual basis, as well as strengthening economic and humanitarian cooperation. They exchanged views on regional problems, including the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. Minister Almagro said his country supported the negotiations held within the framework of the OSCE Minsk Group for peaceful settlement of the conflict.
Uruguayan Minister of Foreign Affairs Luis Almagro announced some days before during his visit to Armenia that they supported the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict.

text: Home > Lifestyle > Woman > News Updated 13 September 2013 Online personas reflect personal identities How social media users create and monitor their online personas may hint at their feelings of self-esteem and self-determination. 0 iStock Related Why people quit Facebook Teens are sharing more online Purging social media of digital possessions Quiz Is my diet healthy? » 10 odours our noses can identify 6 body language mistakes to avoid How social media users create and monitor their online personas may hint at their feelings of self-esteem and self-determination, according to an international team of researchers."The types of actions users take and the kinds of information they are adding to their Facebook walls and profiles are a reflection of their identities," said S. Shyam Sundar, Distinguished Professor of Communications and co-director of the Media Effects Research Laboratory, Penn State. "You are your Facebook, basically, and despite all its "socialness", Facebook is a deeply personal medium."People with lower self-esteem tend to be much more concerned with what others post about them on Facebook, while users with higher self-esteem spend more effort on adding information to their personal profiles on the social network, said Sundar.The researchers, who report their findings at INTERACT 2013 in Cape Town, South Africa, said that people with both high and low self-esteem spend time crafting their online personas on Facebook, but choose different paths in that construction. Individuals with higher self-esteem have a greater sense of agency and spend more time adding information about their family, education and work experience to their profiles, according to the researchers.Signs of low self-esteemUsers who have lower self-esteem continuously monitor their wall and delete unwanted posts from other users, according to the researchers.The findings may also lead to alternative ways to make money for online social networks, said Sundar, who worked with Jiaqi Nie, a graduate student in interaction science, Sungkyunkwan University, South Korea."The more you get connected to Facebook, the stronger you feel that the items you post – the pictures, for example – are part of your identity and the more likely you are going to view these as your virtual possessions," said Sundar.Because both groups of high self-esteem and low self-esteem Facebook users see the social network as an extension of their self-identity, they may be willing to pay for features on social networks, said Sundar. For example, social media and social media app developers may be able to attract paying customers with more customizable walls and profile pages.The researchers studied how 225 students from a South Korean university filled in their Facebook profiles and how the students edited material that friends linked to or posted on their walls.Participants answered a series of questions about whether they added information to 33 categories of personal data, including details about their family, work and relationships. The participants also reported on how frequently they updated and changed information on their walls.To measure self-esteem and self-monitoring, the researchers asked the participants to answer questions, including ones on self-worth and how they choose to present themselves in public.The researchers suggest that future studies may investigate how users of different psychological backgrounds take part in other social networking behaviours, such as how often they update photos and how they set privacy settings.

Dec 12, 2011, 7:22 PM EST
UPDATE: Via Andy Martino of the New York Daily News, the Mets have released the following statement:
“The bridge loan was approved by Major League Baseball and the syndicate of lenders to the Mets. The process for the sale of minority shares in the team continues to go very well.”
7:22 PM: Just in case the Mets’ offseason approach didn’t make it obvious enough already, the team’s owners remain hard up for cash.
According to Michael S. Schmidt and Richard Sandomir of the New York Times, the Wilpons and Saul Katz received a $40 million loan from Bank of America in the past six weeks. It’s being described as a “bridge loan” as they attempt to raise money through the sale of minority stakes. The Mets received a $25 million loan from MLB earlier this year, but have been unable to repay it.
People familiar with the team’s situation have said the owners had firm commitments from at least seven investors interested in buying a small share of the team for $20 million apiece. Still, until all are sold, none of the investors have had to turn over cash.
Vince Gennaro, a consultant to several major league teams, said that the $40 million loan “says to me that their finances continue to be tight, that there is a cash pinch.”
He added: “The team underperformed, and this tides them over until they get their money. They need cash flow.”
Now, Gennaro said, between the bridge loan and the $25 million owed to baseball, “the first $65 million has to go out the door” should the team sell an adequate number of shares in the team.
Two people with knowledge of the team’s finances told Schmidt and Sandomir that the Wilpons and Katz may have to consider selling the team if a full lineup of minority investors is not in place by next spring, though they have publicly expressed confidence on the matter.

Hello! I wasn't able to stamp for a short time due to my arm and hand issues but I am so happy to be able to do a bit of stamping the last couple of days. Summer has been awesome with the beautiful weather and time spent at the beach with my family. This card is more like a tribute to Summer. I am using A Muse Studio's Hibiscus Border set. This set is only available while supplies last. You can find it here. I am also sponsoring over at the Tuesday Throwdown challenge this week. The challenge theme is one layer. Let's just say I took a bit of a detour when I was creating a one layer card.
Supplies from A Muse Studio:
Stamps: Hibiscus Border, Be Yourself
Papers: Bristol white, orange polka dot
Inks: Tombow Markers (491, 443, 126, 933, N00 blender, Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories: Sequins (4mm clear), Creative Candy (sky blue, lime pearls)
Linking to the following:
CAS on Sunday - sequins
Penny Black and More - anything goes with a stamp
Simon Monday Challenge - flora and fauna
The Paper Nest Dolls - anything goes
CASology - art
CASology - art
What a great card ;o)
Thank you for joining us at CAS on Sunday!
This turned out beautifully! I'm sorry about your hand/arm issue...just read about it and I have periods of that too. I was so worried I went and got tested for arthritis but I seem to be fine - I think it's too much keyboard time and clenching my Big Shot too tightly. Stay well!
Kim, your beautiful summery card is definitely a work of art! Gorgeous! Thank you for playing along at CASology this week!
It's a perfect tribute to summer with those bright and happy colours and the gorgeous hibiscus! Thanks for playing along with CASology this week!
Lovely and fresh summer card.
Thank you for sharing over at Penny Black and more;-))m
Gorgeous creation, thanks for joining Penny Black & More @ Allsorts challenge, good luck.

TMB-301/311 was the registrational trial for ibalizumab (a monoclonal antibody that functions as an attachment inhibitor) and included 40 highly treatment–experienced patients.15 Trials of new agents in treatment-experienced patients tend to be small because the goal is primarily to see if the agent has intrinsic activity and to gain safety information.
This was a single-arm open-label study. A total of 53% of the people had resistance to all drugs from ≥3 classes and 68% had integrase resistance. They were given a loading dose of ibalizumab after 7 days of follow-up on their failing regimen. The primary endpoint of the study was proportion of participants with a reduction in HIV-1 RNA ≥0.5 log10 copies/mL at Day 14, demonstrating the intrinsic potency of the regimen. The table in the slide demonstrates that 83% achieved that primary endpoint.
Patients then received an OBR with infusions of ibalizumab 800 mg every 2 weeks. At Weeks 48 and 96, approximately 55% to 60% had HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL.16-19 This is a high rate of virologic suppression in these people with high levels of resistance.
Ibalizumab is not an easy drug to take because it requires an IV infusion every 2 weeks. But for those who need a new drug in a new class, this is an important option.
The safety profile of ibalizumab among these 40 patients was quite good with minimal adverse events. A total of 5 patients discontinued ibalizumab.15,19 The increase in CD4+ cell count was reasonable.

work has been so busy the past few months that ther has been little time for blog posts. Each evening when my mind just couldn’t concentrate on anymore work I would add a few more stitches to a needlepoint stocking I started last fall.
Today I finished the top…next step is to add the braid, lining and backing. Maybe the next steps will be completed later this summer when it gets to hot to be outside.
A few weeks ago I started working on my longterm quilting project again. This project was started two years ago and it will more than likely be another 3-4 years before it is completed. The finished project will be a hand pieced king sized quilt made out of one inch hexies using fabrics from my scrap basket. So far I have cut about 3,000 scrap squares, made about 1,000 hexies (ordered the paper template from an online source), and have a 100 or so units in various stages of completion.
I really enjoy hand piecing because it can be taken anywhere and worked on while waiting or traveling. I especially enjoy this project because it allows me to work with fabrics used over many years and to think about the quilts that were created and the individuals that received the finished products.
It appears that the spring is going to be just as unpredictable as the 2015 winter. Last week it was in the 70s and we started yard work, took the plastic off the chicken’s winter run (they are a bit puffed up today since the wind break is down), and moved the veggie seedling trays to the sun porch. Today it was in the 30s with rain that changed to sleet and then to snow and back again.
With all of the lovely weather we were blessed with over the past few weeks I had planned to change to our spring menus and clean the wood stove for the season. The weather today and the what is now promised for the balance of the week actually had me to start the wood stove, and brush off a couple of winter favorites for dinners this week. Today I made a pot of vegan red beans and rice with a side of pumpkin cornbread. The red beans have a very rich flavor with just a hint of spiciness created with fresh vegetables, veggie stock, creole seasoning, and a nice bunch of kale.
If you like red beans and rice but would like to forego the animal fat in the traditional recipe than you may want to try the following.
- 1 cup of dried rice
- 1 cup dried red beans, picked over
- 1 small yellow onion, chopped fine
- 1 medium carrot, chopped fine
- 1 large celery stalk, chopped fine
- 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped fine
- 5 cups vegetable stock
- 1 Tbsp creole seasoning
- 1 bunch of fresh kale, roughly chopped, or 1/2 cup of dehydrated kale
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Soak the beans overnight in a large bowl of water.
- Rinse and drain the beans.
- Add the beans, onion, carrot, celery, jalapeno, creole seasoning, and vegetable stock to a medium-sized crock pot, and cook for 6 hours on high or 8 hours on low.
- Taste the broth and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Cook rice according to package directions.
- Add the kale to bean mixture and cook for an additional 30 minutes.
- Serve the beans over 1/2 cup or so of rice with a side of cornbread.
The dogs got us up really early this morning so I decided to make some carrot cake scones to go with our morning tea. One of the things that I like about this recipe is that they use no processed sugar and are very low in fat while still being moist and packed with flavor.
The scones were a very nice Sunday morning treat. I hope that you will give the recipe a try.
for the scones
- 1 ½ cups white whole wheat flour
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp allspice
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter or coconut oil, very cold and cubed
- ½ cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
- 3 tbsp maple syrup or honey
- 2 tbsp + 2 tsp nonfat milk, divided
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup freshly grated carrots
for the drizzle
- 1 tbsp Greek yogurt cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 1 ½ tsp nonfat milk
- 1 tsp maple syrup
- Preheat the oven to 425°F, and line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, spices, and salt. Cut in the butter with a pastry cutter or the back of a fork until the mixture resembles fine crumbs.
- Stir in the Greek yogurt, maple syrup, 2 tablespoons of milk, and vanilla. Fold in the grated carrots.
- Shape the dough into a ¾” tall circle on the prepared baking sheet, and brush with the remaining milk. Slice the circle into 8 triangular segments with a sharp knife.
- Bake at 425°F for 17-20 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden. Cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- To make the drizzle, stir together the Greek yogurt cream cheese, milk, and maple syrup in a small bowl. Transfer the mixture to a zip-topped bag, and cut off a tiny piece of one corner. Just before serving, drizzle on top of the scones.
I am moving along at a snail’s pace on my craft projects. One of my biggest problems with crafts is that I like so many differs types and want to try them all. At this time there must be 20-30 started projects of different types. Every few years I try to get the UFOs under control, that is until I make a mistake in one of the projects. When an error is made that requires that something be re-cut or ripped out it has a tendency to be moved back to the UFO pile until I have more patience or it is need as a gift.
This year I promised myself that no new projects would be started and no new threads or fabrics purchased. I have already broken the first promise to myself by starting three new projects this year, but have held fast on the “no new purchases” promise.
So far this year five old projects have been completed and progress made on two additional UFOs. Last night I finished the flying geese ring for a star quilt that I have been working on for two years.
The next piece to be cut is the solid ring that will be placed between the star cluster and the flying geese ring. Not sure when I will get back to this since I haven’t really felt like spring a lot of time with my sewing machine recently, spring will be calling me outside, and work will start getting very busy in the near future.
The other project that I have made some progress on is a needlepoint canvas that I started more than 10 years ago. Since it is rather small and easily be moved from room to room, it may actually get finished this spring.
Now that the quilts for the grandchildren are complete I have moved my mariner’s compass top back to the worktable. The center of this top consists of five rounds of paper pieced units. Since each of the rounds is circular, and sewing circles is one of my weakest areas, I am hand appliquéing the rounds to each other. This technique may take a bit longer than machine joining, but for me, the results are better. And since there are some many small units and repeated patterns in the stars I am using freezer paper pattern templates. The freezer paper allows me to only have to draw each pattern once and then stack template paper and use an unthreaded needle on my sewing machine to create multiple foundation patterns at once — it also means that I do not have to pick paper out of seams at the end of the project. 👍
I hope to complete the quilt center in the next week or so, and another month or two to complete the multiple borders selected for the piece. The the end of the project the top will be approximately 90 inches square.
The following Videos demonstrate a few of the techniques I am using in this project
Today I finished the binding on the last of my 2015 Christmas quilts. I had good intentions for getting the quilts for my youngest two grandchildren in the mail in early December. And that should have been possible since the pricing and quilting was completed in mid November. The problem was that I kept avoiding hand stitching the binding on the two full size quilts until a few weeks ago. I even set a new goal for myself by texting my daughter to tell her the quilts would be dropped in the mail that week. With the new goal in hand I started sewing the binding on the first quilt, got about halfway around the piece before I was distracted by another project. Earlier this week I texted her again noting that I was having a problem with the binding and that it would be an additional week before the quilts would be sent to the girls. This week I spent each evening working on the bindings so that I would not have to send another text of regret. The added pressure on myself did the trick. The bindings are now done and the quilts will be in the mail early next week.
The lesson that I learned from this is that I cannot have more than one binding project at a time on my work table. If I do I get a bit overwhelmed and revert to my avoidance behavior.
… Now I should move on to the new quilt my daughter requested.

A Chinese local state media report said earlier on Thursday that 100,000 ducks would be sent from the country’s Zheijiang province to Pakistan to eat-up the billions of locusts that are causing mass crop devastation.
Pakistan declared a national emergency earlier this month, saying locust figures were the worst in more than two decades. The media report initially stated ducks would be deployed to the worst affected affected areas — Sindh, Balochistan and Punjab provinces. China had used ducks in the past to chomp through crop-damaging locusts.
The initial media report generated 520 million views on China’s popular social media platform Weibo with netizens rooting for the birds by posting comments including “Heroic ducks in harm’s way!” and “Go ducks! I hope you come back alive!
Experts assigned to help Pakistan combat its locust infestation have stepped-back from an earlier proposal of deploying some 100,000 ducks to devour the plague of crop-ravaging insects. They suggested pesticide instead.
Pakistani climate not duck-friendly
Professor Zhang Long, a member of the China Locust Disaster Control Task Force and a professor at China Agriculture University, told reporters the Chinese ducks would not be suited to the environmental conditions in Pakistan.
“Ducks rely on water, but in Pakistan’s desert areas, the temperature is very high,” Zhang said. He and the other members of the Chinese specialist group have been designated to help Pakistan fight the locusts.
Instead, Zhang advised the use of chemical or biological pesticides, and suggested using an aircraft to deploy the pesticides, according to China’s CCTV.
Favorable weather conditions and a delayed government response have helped the locusts breed and attack crop areas.
The desert locusts — large herbivores that resemble grasshoppers — arrived in Pakistan from Iran in June and have already ravaged cotton, wheat, maize and other crops.
East Africa and India have also seen mass crop destruction due to locust invasions. In January, the UN called for international help to fight swarms of desert locusts sweeping through East Africa.
Locust swarms can fly up to 150 km (90 miles) a day with the wind, and consume as much in one day as about 35,000 people.

REQ: NEW AUDIO TECHNOLOGY Spatial Sound Card Pro
Hi guys, I searched everywhere, but I found it nowhere. If anyone has that, I would appreciate sharing.
The Spatial Sound Card (SSC) Pro is a software-based, virtual sound card. Professional monitoring of audio content usually requires complex, high-quality speaker installations, for which both budget and space are needed. The Spatial Sound Card Pro enables monitoring of stereo and surround up to 7.1 using binaural loudspeaker virtualizations with regular headphones on the computer.
The Spatial Sound Card Pro is inserted into audio source software, operating system and audio hardware. The binaural room virtualizations originate from a constantly growing number of high-end studios and dub stages like the ARRI Stage One, MSM Munich and others. The technology used in the SSC was used on major Blu-Ray releases (e.g. The Expendables I -III, Fifth Element and Kraftwerk 3D).
To optimise the virtualization the SSC provides parameters to customise the frequency curve of the used headphones. Presets for a lot of well-known headphone models are included, more will follow.
The Spatial Sound Card Pro works with all applications that support multichannel audio output. These include media players like VLC and FLAC-Player as well as video / audio workstations, games and VR applications. The SSC is recommended for media professionals from the audio, music, VR, video, games and multi media domain as well as for agencies and companies with workstations that need high-quality audio monitoring.

It’s no secret that a sad dog story, properly promoted on social media, can bring in some pretty huge donations — for an animal shelter, a rescue organization, or an individual.
Whether your dog needs life-saving surgery, or even an intense diet regimen, you don’t have to be a nonprofit organization to ask the public for help — and you shouldn’t have to be.
But with the rise of social media, and online fundraising tools like GoFundMe, IndieGogo, and all those other I-would-like- some-of-your-money-please websites, there are likely more bucks than ever before being donated directly to individual dogs in need.
With all that unmonitored money pouring in, what ensures that it’s going to the rightful place — namely, helping the dog in question? What ensures any surplus won’t end up going to the dog owner’s kitchen remodel? What’s to guarantee that the sad dog story is even true in the first place?
In a word, nothing.
Just as the Internet has made us all published journalists, photographers and autobiographers, it has given us an easy route to becoming professional fund-raisers.
What gets lost in that transition is knowing who we can trust.
We can only cross our fingers and hope that those engaging in outright fraud get caught, that those soliciting funds to help a dog don’t get too greedy, and that money sent in by good-hearted people seeking to help a dog actually goes to helping a dog.
It’s a fuzzy area — legally and morally. What accounting, if any, does a private citizen raising money to help a dog owe those who contribute?
In Oregon, at least, the answer seems to be some, at least in the view of the state Attorney General’s Office.
Since January, the office’s charitable activities section has been looking into how Nora Vanatta spent, and is spending, all the money sent in to help Obie — the 77-pound dachshund she adopted and whose weight loss program became a much-followed story.
Vanatta, a veterinary technician who lives in Portland, never purported to be affiliated with a nonprofit, but she did seek and accept thousands of dollars from people around the world who were inspired by Obie’s story.
Vanatta initially fostered Obie, after reading about him on the Facebook page of Oregon Dachshund Rescue.
After Obie’s story went viral, the rescue sought to get the dog back, and filed a lawsuit. The case was later settled, and Vanatta was awarded permanent custody. (Obie is down to 22 pounds.)
Meanwhile, money — Vanatta won’t say how much — continued to come in, $15,000 of which Vanatta says was spent on lawyers she hired to fight the custody battle. Some of it went to pay for $80 bags of specialty food Obie required, and a $1,500 skin-reduction surgery.
Since January, Vanatta has been answering questions from the Attorney General’s office, which began looking into the matter after receiving complaints about how she was spending the funds, and is now in the process of working out an agreement with her.
“They wanted everything – copies of every penny in, every penny out,” she told the Oregonian.
The Attorney General’s office won’t identify the source of the complaint, and it says no wrongdoing was found in how Vanatta has spent the funds so far. (Apparently, nobody in that office full of lawyers had any problem with all the money that went to lawyers.)
But the office does disagree with how she plans to spend the rest. (Obie’s PayPal account was closed last year.)
Vanatta says the office objects to her using the money to help individual dogs with medical needs, which is maybe a little ironic given the money was raised to help an individual dog with medical needs. The Attorney General’s office frowned upon her giving $2,000 to a family she met at the Tualatin veterinary clinic where she works to help them pay for their dog’s back surgery. Instead, the office wants her to give the money away to established nonprofits, and wants to set a deadline.
The case raises lots of interesting questions, and some disturbing ones.
We’re all for the attorney general keeping an eye on such fundraising drives; slightly less for that office dictating what good causes should receive the remainder of the money, and when.
We agree with Vanatta’s reasoning on that: “I strongly believe you do not have to be a nonprofit to do good,” she said.
What bothers us most, though, next to Obie’s previous owners letting him get so morbidly obese, is how much of the money donated has gone to lawyers — $15,000 on the custody case, another $11,800 for lawyers to represent Vanatta in the attorney general’s investigation.
Obie may be becoming a slimmer dog, thanks in part to donations from the public, but, as always, lawyers — gobbling up the bulk of the donations — just keep getting fatter.

And that’s even more the case after surgery yesterday to remove 2-1/2 pounds of loose skin from the dog who once tipped the scales at 77 pounds.
Obie was recovering at the Emergency Veterinary Clinic of Tualatin, in Oregon, after surgery to remove the excess skin that remained after he lost 40 pounds in 8 months.
Obie’s caretaker, Nora Vanatta, says the surgery went well and that she hopes to bring him home today, according to KGW in Portland.
Obie weighed 77 pounds when he was given up by his former owners in Puyallup, Washington, last year and assigned to a foster home by a rescue organization.
Oregon Dachshund Rescue placed Obie — that’s him to the left in his beefier days — in Vanatta’s care. But after his girth garnered national attention the organization asked for the dog back, claiming Vanatta — by publicizing his crash diet and seeking contributions to his care — was exploiting him.
When Vanatta refused to turn him over, they filed a lawsuit, accusing her of using the “sensationalistic promotional value of his unusual obesity” and “earning money off of his public exhibition on national and regional television shows,” while not taking care of his condition.
A settlement in the case was reached in January, allowing Vanatta to keep the dog.
Before the Tuesday surgery, Obie was down to 37 pounds and four ounces.
“We haven’t weighed him since the surgery, but he lost 2 1/2 pounds of skin” Vanatta said. “So he should be around 35 pounds now. I figure his healthy weight is between 28 and 30 pounds.”
For now, he’s resting comfortably at the veterinary clinic (left), from which he’s expected to be released today — a few pounds lighter and his skin much tigher.
Vets will evaluate Obie to determine if more surgery is needed after he loses the last five pounds, a goal Vanatta hopes will be achieved late this summer.
Obie’s fight with obesity can be followed on the Facebook page Vanatta created on his behalf.

Global Electric Motorcars is a wholly owned subsidiary company of the Polaris Group founded in 1992 by a group of engineers from Michigan under the name Trans 2. The U.S. based company is a leading manufacturer of zero-emission small electric vehicles with over 50,000 GEM battery powered vehicles sold globally as of 2015. GEM sales shot up after the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in 1998 legalized the use of a new class of vehicles called LSV (Low Speed Vehicles) on public roads provided they fulfilled some basic safety qualifications.
Unlike other groups like Yamaha whose vehicles are exclusively designed to operate on golf courses, GEM golf carts are widely used for many different purposes like transportation and utility vehicles on resorts, universities, corporate canvases and residential complexes. All the same, GEM cars are perfectly viable as fleet carts for golf courses as long as no after-market tires or any bulky upgrades are installed.
GEM battery-electric cars are street legal on public roads across nearly all American states with a rated top speed of 35 mph. Further, these vehicles can last for more than 48 km on a single charge which is more than enough for 18 holes although it might not be entirely adequate for regular driving. That said, there are several models of GEM cars with higher capacity batteries that are particularly suited for intra-city use which are operated by government agencies, residential communities, corporate campuses, and so on.
On account of the range of features and upgrades available to support intra-city use, it is easy to forget that GEM cars are also very good golf carts equipped with several innovative technological updates. For instance, GEM vehicles have a “turf” setting to eliminate the possibility of a wheel spin on wet grass. Similarly, the removable trunk compartment can be easily replaced with an attachable rack for golf clubs.
To put it briefly, GEM cars are versatile multi-purpose vehicles that are almost as good on the streets as they are on the turf. They come in several different variants for use as intra-city passenger transport vehicles, high capacity load bearing cars, or fleet golf carts.
GEM golf carts double up as street legal vehicles with the appropriate modifications installed and proper documentation. Fortunately, GEM cars come with features like safety belts, head lamps, wind screen wipers, and protective glass which sets it apart from all its competitors in the industry.
Secondly, GEM electric carts boast a top speed of up to 25 miles an hour perhaps because of their increasing use as Neighborhood Electric Vehicles for passenger transport over short distances. This top speed and power output far surpasses other small low-speed electric and even gas powered vehicles manufactured by other brands.
GEM cars come with very powerful batteries that have a long service life over several hundred recharge cycles. Moreover, its batteries can last for up to 48 km on a single charge as mentioned previously. For a fleet car on a golf course, that is more than sufficient for 18 holes.
Although one of the major advantages of owning a GEM car is its street legal status, its actual utility is quite limited. The maximum speed of 25 miles an hour coupled with its limited battery capacity (compared to regular street legal cars) effectively limits its use to golf courses, resorts, and university campuses for the most part.
GEM cars require up to 8 hours for a full charge which is somewhat longer than the standard 6 hour average. Under-charging your vehicle is never a good idea - everyone knows how frustrating it is when your cart runs out of juice before it finishes 18 holes.
GEM cars are typically heavier and wider than those manufactured by rival brands. This leaves a mark on golf courses and makes it slightly difficult to negotiate very tight turns on the greens. That said, this should not be a major issue as long you select the right variant and avoid piling it with unnecessary add-ons. Be sure to buy a two-seater GEM car for regular use on the course and avoid installing additional after-market modifications. Newer offerings like the GEM e2 feature nifty handling and a surprisingly tight turn radius.
Today, GEM cars have become a major player in the zero-emission small electric car market globally coupled with rising domestic sales in the U.S. Its vehicles require little maintenance and come equipped with a powerful engine and high capacity battery. Although, these cars can now be legally used on public roads, keep in mind that this class of vehicles are not built like regular cars and lack basic safety features like airbags and side-intrusion beams. In addition to golf courses, this vehicle is ideally suited for use in gated residential communities. On public roads, it would be best to use it as a secondary car.


AMLO assures that kidnappings in Culiacán are part of confrontation between gangs
President Andrés Manuel López Obrador addressed the recent mass kidnappings in Culiacán, Sinaloa pointing out that these incidents are the result of a confrontation between criminal gangs.
In a morning press conference from the National Palace, the president reported that most of the victims have been rescued and have returned safely to their homes. According to him, around 60 or 66 people were kidnapped, of which 58 have been located and eight are still to be found. Fortunately, he pointed out that there are no minors among the missing and that work has been underway to identify the missing from the first moment.
In response to these events, AMLO detailed that there are already 1,800 elements of the Armed Forces deployed in the state of Sinaloa. Likewise, he confirmed that in the early hours of Sunday, March 24, a confrontation occurred in which one soldier lost his life, another was injured and three people were arrested.
Finally, the president expressed his condolences to the relatives of the deceased soldier and sent a message of support to the families of the eight missing, ensuring that efforts are being made to find them and guarantee their safety.

Hertford’s largest accountancy firm, Wilkins Kennedy LLP, has announced the successful move to their new premises to accommodate the significant growth of the firm. The move took place on Monday 29thJune 2015 and was prompted by the continual and steady growth of the practice and the new, modernised, spacious offices face out on to Ware Road, which is a much better location than previously at Yeoman’s Court and easier to find for visiting customers. Despite the physical move to a new building, frequent visitors to Wilkins Kennedy need not update their address books – as the office address and phone number will remain exactly the same.

Five places where new homes are set to be built in north Norfolk
- Credit: Chris Bishop
North Norfolk has seen a number of plans for new homes submitted in recent months, with 2,400 set to be built across the area over the next five years.
Plans will see North Norfolk District Council build 479 new homes a year until 2025, but here are five projects currently in the pipeline for north Norfolk's towns and villages.
North Walsham West
A project which will transform North Walsham and see its population boom with 1,800 new homes, North Walsham West would see the introduction of a new link road as part of the development.
The North Walsham West Link Road will link Norwich Road to Cromer Road and the Laundry Loke industrial estate via Bradfield Road.
Along with the road there are also plans to introduce a new school along with green spaces.
Norwich Road, Corpusty
Plans have been drawn up for 38 homes which could swell the village's population by around 20pc.
Broadland Development Services has applied to build the homes on a 2.9 hectare site around a new cul-de-sac off Norwich Road in Corpusty, which is located to the north-west of Aylsham.

- 4 Photographer offers free event amid cost of living crisis
- 5 CCTV images issued after string of burglaries at agricultural sites
- 6 5,500 oysters on order ahead of weekend festival
- 7 'Boredom' to blame for high anti-social behaviour in town, says officer
- 8 Lynx bombing: Fears TikTok trend could lead to serious fires
- 9 Revealed: Why wasps chase you and how to get rid of them this summer
- 10 Motorcyclist taken to hospital with serious injuries following crash
Nursery Road Drive, North Walsham
This area has been earmarked by developers for 350 new homes in North Norfolk District Council's local plan.
But there has been strong resistance from locals who say the area is home to deer, owls and hares.
Yarmouth Road, Stalham
Plans would see 62 to new homes built for those with social care needs, allowing them to live independently.
Norfolk County Council has pumped £2m into the plans which would see the apartments, made up of 30 two-bed flats and 32 one-bed flats, built on a two-acre site off Yarmouth Road.
Rudham Stile Lane, Fakenham
In what would be one of the biggest development's in Fakenham's history, plans for the 114 acres of land between Rudham Stile Lane and the A148 would see 950 homes, a 100-bedroom hotel, a pub, shops and school built.
Plans would swell the town's population 20pc to around 10,000, with just 16.5pc of homes to be built required to be affordable.

Ipsative is a descriptor used in psychology to indicate a specific type of measure in which respondents compare two or more desirable options and pick the one that is most preferred. This is contrasted with measures that use Likert-type scales, in which respondents choose the score which best represents the degree to which they agree with a given statement. "Ipsative Comparisons" are also sometimes used in standardized testing to compare significant differences in subtest scores.

Hey there everyone, so glad you have stopped by the Petaloo blog today. We have some amazing projects to share with you this week for our Core'dinations blog hop. Today i'm sharing a layout with you. It's my daughters Senior year....and yes I have a little catching up to do on her book before graduation. I love to mat my photos and on this layout wanted to make the "2013" pop and not blend in with the background paper so I matted that as well.
Here is a little close up for you. The Core'dinations cardstock is simply amazing....I love to sand the edges or emboss with it. For this layout I used the Petaloo Darjeeling Mini (autumn) and Mini Daises (red)...they matched perfectly with the paper.

Thanks so much for stopping by the blog today, have a fabulous day!!

Also going under the hammer is an autograph letter from Albert Einstein to Rudi Mandl, a Czech refugee who was a restaurant dishwasher when they met. Mandl badgered Einstein into publishing his only known article about gravitational lensing, a consequence of Einstein’s general relativity. Einstein’s only article about it starts by saying how Rudi Mandl persuaded him to write about it (estimate: £50,000-80,000).
Other highlights include:
- a 13th-century manuscript of Thomas Aquinas's Summa Theologica
- a series of lavishly-illustrated Books of Hours and decorated codices from Ethiopia, Armenia and Siam
- illustrated printed books including Pierre-Joseph Redouté’s depictions of Empress Josephine’s gardens at Malmaison, published by Étienne-Pierre Ventenat in 1803, and Marc Chagall’s illustrations for Homer’s Odyssey, printed in 1975
- atlases by Ortelius, Mercator, Janssonius and Braun and Hogenberg, plus an extremely rare Chinese wall-map of the world, Complete Map of the Everlasting Great Qing with All under Heaven Unified, published in Beijing in 1814

Beyonce took the stage in New Orleans on Thursday for a pre-super-bowl press conference and dazzled the crowd with an a’capella rendition of the Star Spangled Banner, dressed in a fabulous open back dress from designer Olcay Gulsen.
Olcay Gulsen is the famous Dutch designer behind both the Olcay Gulsen collection, and SuperTrash. Since descending on to the fashion scene more than a decade ago, Gulsen has become a well known name all across the globe.
Beyonce came under scrutiny in the media this past week, after it was revealed that she lip synced the National Anthem at the Inauguration of President Barack Obama. Looking to prove that she could sing the anthem without a backing track, (as if she really needed to prove anything) Beyonce belted the song out beautifully.
The multi-platinum recording artist will perform during Sunday’s Super Bowl XLVII halftime show.
For more information on the open back dress from the Olcay Gulsen collection, please visit the official Olcay Gulsen shop.

I love new music. Part of what I want to do is share as much new music with people as possible. I have a few excellent selections lined up and I am always looking for more. This one I discovered on accident one evening while having dinner with the composers wife at a French Horn conference. I am very glad I did.
Concerto for Tuba and Wind Ensemble was written by Dr. Gary Ziek, professor of Trumpet and Director of Bands at Emporia State University. It was written for one of Gary's close friends, Alan Baer, principal Tubist in the New York Philharmonic.
Listen to this work and enjoy. It's fantastic and deserves attention.

Support and Comfort
The 2 greatest aspects when looking to buy a new mattress, is comfort and also support.
You want a few things to take place whenever you lie down.
For one, you want the contour and sinkage to be correct, for proper spine alignment.
Also, you want a mattress that offers adequate support as you sleep.
It is critical to have proper alignment from top to bottom as you sleep.
This is important to make sure you are reducing neck and back pain, as well as have a healthy sleep.
While not only supporting your body, a mattress needs to be a good source of stress relief.
The stress points in your body are precisely what is in control of you thrashing during the evening.
Memory foam is known for being great at both support, and being comfortable through out the night. What Mattress Compares To Sleep Number
Should You Choose Firm or Soft?
This is along the same lines, as when we talk about comfort and support.
A new mattress should never be too firm, nor should it ever be too soft.
What you want in a mattress, is one that ensures your spine and body stay in a neutral position.
A mattress that is too firm can not only restrict blood flow, but can also cause pinched nerves.
If you wake up with a sensation of pins and needles in your body, there’s a good chance your mattress is too firm.
And if your mattress is too soft, this can create a sagging effect, similar to a hammock.
This is going to cause back pain, because your spine isn’t properly aligned.
Hopefully now you understand why we want a mattress to be as close to neutral as possible.
What you want is a mattress that is soft in all the right places, but not too soft overall.
But you also need your mattress to be supportive, without being overly rigid. What Mattress Compares To Sleep Number
One feature most don’t think about when shopping for a new mattress, is the fever neutrality, or ‘breathability’ of a mattress.
The best thing that memory foam has going for them, is their ability to conform to your body.
However, foam mattresses have been known to create ‘the oven result’, when their layers start to diminish.
Essentially,a mattress catches your temperature,forcing one to rest also hot.
The good news is, with advanced technology, most mattress brands have a way to prevent this.
Almost every mattress brand aims to provide a mattress now that sleeps cool, offers breathability, and at the same time, provides warmth where it should be.
Some companies do a much better job at this, than a number of their competitors. What Mattress Compares To Sleep Number
This should come as no surprise, but when looking for a high quality mattress, it’s normal for them to come with a hefty price tag.
With mattresses being fairly expensive, you want to make sure you buy one that’s going to last you for years.
You want to look for mattress brands that use advanced technology, with the aim that the mattress will last you almost a lifetime.
When shopping for a mattress, pay close attention to the warranty. Your goal should be finding a brand with at least a standard 10 year warranty. What Mattress Compares To Sleep Number

Rime developer Tequila Works has officially revealed the exact release date for their upcoming puzzle adventure game, and it will be here in a couple of months for most platforms. Rime will launch for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC on May 26th, with a version on Nintendo Switch coming at some point this Summer. Interestingly enough, the game will cost $29.99 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, but the Nintendo Switch version will be $10 more at $39.99.
The development cycle for Rime has been a long one with many ups and downs, as it was initially announced in 2013 and green-lit by Microsoft. However, the game was later obtained by Sony and was set to be a PlayStation 4-exclusive, but then Tequila Works reacquired the rights to the series from Sony last year. They then announced that the game would be a multi-platform release that would be coming in 2017, and now it looks like we’re finally getting to the light at the end of the tunnel.
The following is a brief overview of what Rime is all about:
“Rime is a single-player puzzle adventure game about discovery, experienced through the eyes of a young boy who awakens on a mysterious island after shipwrecking off its coast. Players must navigate the island’s secrets by making use of light, sound, perspective and even time. Inspired by the rugged, sunbaked terrain of the Mediterranean coast, Rime paints its breathtaking world with a fusion of vibrant colours and moving musical undertones to set the stage for the deeply personal journey that awaits within.”
If you’re interested in the game and want to see some actual gameplay, we got nearly 30 minutes of the game’s opening segment earlier this year that you can check out below. The game has been recently described as “part Zelda, part Last Guardian,” and if it can hold up to the quality of either of those releases then it could be something very special.

Susan Hernandez has been away from her job at a Food 4 Less grocery store in North Hollywood, California, for almost two months. In mid-November, she came down with COVID-19 and is still recovering.
“My scariest moments were at night when I couldn’t breathe,” she said. “It felt like there were sharp, icicle pains being shot into my lungs, and I just didn’t know if I was going to make it.”
She lives with her husband and two older children, who also fell ill. She’s convinced she contracted the virus at work, where she said a customer without a mask had yelled in her face just days before.
“Every day is a gamble for us. Every second is a gamble for us,” she said.
In the early months of the pandemic, that gamble was rewarded with a $2 per hour hazard-pay raise. Kroger, which owns Food 4 Less, discontinued extra pay in June, saying it’s committed to gradual and permanent pay raises. Hernandez, with her union, has been pushing to reinstate hazard pay.
With COVID-19 spreading out of control in many parts of the country, it’s never been riskier for essential, front-line workers to do their jobs. Yet many companies are no longer offering hazard pay. Local governments in Los Angeles County, the current epicenter of the pandemic, are the latest to move toward mandating that essential workers receive a pay bump.
L.A. has seen workplace spread of COVID-19 explode as the county has been hit with a tsunami of cases. Hundreds of employees at more than two dozen local retailers have been infected, despite some of the strictest public health measures in the country.
Angelica Hernandez works at an L.A. McDonald’s. She said workers there should get hazard pay because the jobs carry unavoidable risk, even with all the safety measures in place.
“We don’t have the space that we need to keep 6 feet” apart, she said. “Sometimes there are five or six of us in the kitchen, and we’re superclose.”
She said multiple colleagues have gotten sick, with one ending up on a ventilator. So she sent her children to stay with grandparents to avoid exposing them to the virus.
“There’s just anguishing choices that these workers have between their health, their family’s health and a paycheck,” said Molly Kinder, David M. Rubenstein fellow at the Brookings Institution.
She said about half of front-line workers are nonwhite and earn low wages. While many large companies have offered hazard-pay increases, the amounts and duration have been uneven.
“Some companies have been extremely generous and others have not,” she said.
Her research found Best Buy, Target and Costco had increased wages the most while Kroger, Walmart and Amazon had paid among the smallest bonuses, despite those companies earning billions of dollars in additional revenue during the pandemic.

Phoenix, AZ (Sports Network) - Amare Stoudemire scored 23 points and grabbed nine rebounds in his return to Phoenix, as the Knicks dominated the Suns, 121-96.
Stoudemire spent the first eight years of his career with Phoenix, where he was a five-time All-Star. He then landed in New York following a sign-and- trade deal this past offseason. The Knicks gave Stoudemire a five-year deal worth nearly $100 million dollars.
"I had one objective and that was too dominated from the start," Stoudemire said. "That was my main goal was to dominate from the get go. I got it going early. Then in the second half they went to a zone and my teammates got it going. The great thing about our team is that we're so versatile that no matter how teams play us we can adjust."
Raymond Felton made five three-pointers en route to 23 points for New York, which started a four-game road trip on Friday. Felton also dished out 11 assists and pulled down 10 rebounds.
Wilson Chandler tallied 16 points and six rebounds while Landry Fields donated 14 points and 10 boards. Shawne Williams had 15 points and seven rebounds off the bench for the victors.
Vince Carter finished with 19 points for the Suns, who have lost three in a row. Goran Dragic added 17 points while Steve Nash chipped in with 14 points and nine assists.
The Knicks started the game on an 8-2 run and never looked back. Chandler's jumper with under four minutes left gave New York a 20-10 edge. It was a 30-22 game after 12 minutes of action.
Holding a 37-31 lead midway through the second quarter, the Knicks got consecutive three-pointers from Williams and Fields to make it 43-31.
New York took a 55-45 margin into the locker room, and scored 14 straight points early in the third. Williams tallied nine points during the burst, which Stoudemire capped with an alley-oop dunk for a 77-54 lead with seven minutes to go.
The Knicks went on a 7-0 flurry moments later to make it 84-60. It was 93-71 heading to the fourth.
New York outscored Phoenix, 28-25, in the final frame.
"We didn't play well at all," Suns head coach Alvin Gentry said. "I think we make progress defensively and then we take steps backwards. When we struggle with our shot, we have to be able to guard guys defensively so there is not that separation. We didn't do that. The end result is an embarrassing loss."
