- Airday Records, 2007
Uncle Monk is the eponymous release of Tommy Ramone’s most recent musical offering to the world, and although he initially made his mark as the first drummer—not to mention producer and manager—of seminal punk band the Ramones, there is nary a drum on this CD. Alongside longtime partner Claudia Tienan, Ramone has traded in glue for moonshine, the basement for the back porch, and jeans for…well, jeans.
In the ’70s, Ramone helped change the landscape of pop, but with Uncle Monk, the skilled multi-instrumentalist—he sings and expertly lays down fiddle, dobro, mandolin, banjo, and guitar—has sown his considerable energy into deeper musical strata. The resulting harvest of 14 originals references everything from the Carter Family to Hank Williams Sr., but on the way up from those deeply sunken roots there are audible traces of the Velvet Underground, acerbic folk, and the singer-songwriter confessional.
Tienan—who also holds down bass and rhythm guitar—possesses a dusky, Leonard Cohen-esque alto, which underpins the rollicking “Emotional Needs” with a wry sensibility and casts shadows on the ironically titled “Urban Renewal.” Ramone’s more elastic vocals whoop, growl, and sob as he cavorts in the leaves in “Heaven” and mourns convincingly for a broken friendship in “Mean to Me.”
Uncle Monk is a walk down a dusty two-lane blacktop with the lights of the big city glowing on the horizon—distant but still present. www.unclemonk.com

Ram V10 vs Diesel Engine Choice
Results from Survey and comments to Mail Lists
There have been periodic V10 vs. diesel wars on the mail lists.
Worthwhile comments from those exchanges will be included here.

Subject: Re: DiRT: V10 -vrs- Desil, whats the truth
I have been driving a 99 2500 Ram with the Cummins 24 valve. It is a magnificent
Using what I have learned of how the diesel engine works, how a gasoline engine works, my experience with both, and what I have learned of my truck, I suggest to you that the diesel is a better and finer engine in all ways except
(1) The Cummins 5.9 liter is a very heavy
(2) The thing is a noisy beast (which I like myself, it is such a animal).
(3) If you want the maximum acceleration you can get, the V10 will give you more.
Also, and this is clear if you study it, the gasoline engine is no longer an engine that should be manufactured. It is not clean enough. It should be thrown away or completely redesigned. That is, the modern gasoline engine isn't modern, and requires *qualitative* change, not more tweaking.
Anyway, go and test drive each.
Also, if you decide to go with the diesel, I suggest getting a 4wd for the full front axle (the diesel is heavy) and why not go for the 3500? Then you will get the heaviest equipment, and this is suitable for such a MONSTER BEAST TANK ENGINE GOD I LOVE IT.
My ONLY regrets I have concerning my 2500 is that I didn't get a 3500 with 4WD. I mean, I spent so much money anyhow.

Subject: DiRT: V10 vs diesel
I hate to say this, but there is no right answer here. It all comes to personal
driving habits, need, wants, on and on and on. If you *need* the awesome power
availabe with the Cummins, get it. It will pull better than the 8.0L Not trying to
start a flame war here, but if you take two identical trucks except one w/ a cummins and
one w/ a v-10, load em up with a nice big trailer, then try and climb a long hill, the
v-10 just cannot compete with the I-6. Plus the I-6 is a much better design IMHO
over any v-8. I have seen some monster build ups on cummins to. A shop in Ketchikan,
AK ( pacific engine repair or something like that) had a torque curve on a built cummins,
1300 lb.ft. of torque, 750+ hp, problem was, none of the drivetrain could handle
it... SOrry to be longwinded here, but the engine choice is something we can't
answer, it comes down to what you need the truck for.

Subject: RE: DiRT: V10 -vrs- Desil, whats the truth researched response ( long)
As for me I've driven a 97 2500 V10 auto 4X2, a 96, 97, 98 12v Diesel, and my current truck. All of them were unloaded and relatively short in duration except for my truck. The V10 accelerated like crazy and I thought "this motor will drink gas and get me in trouble". The Diesels accelerate pretty good considering what they are and I'm happy with mine and the mileage is good (approx 19 in city). My previous truck was a gas F250 4X4 that got 10 MPG no matter what you did, up hill, down hill, ac on , ac off, empty, loaded, fast, slow, and if you looked at it cross it would burn 2 gallons sitting in the driveway just to spite you. Now that I have the Diesel driving distances don't make me think "Hmmm, pulling out the driveway that's a gallon, Ohh Noo a red stop light that's gonna cost me getting started from a stop again........
I guess you'll just have to weigh the goods and bads of each. Diesel Bad, expensive, heavy, kinda slow, noisy, causes everyone around you to immediately die from cancer. Diesel good, good on fuel, runs about 300,000 miles before problems, noisy in a good way, great low end torque. V10 Bad, need to do inflight refueling to make it down the street without stopping, wears out long before the Diesel, also causes everyone around you to immediately die from SOMETHING (I'm sure someone knows and will post). V10 Good, accelerates like mad, about $4,000.00 cheaper, fuel more readily available.
Hope this helps ya and I'm sure you will be quite pleased with either one.

From: "Stevan Gajic" <email@example.com>
First and foremost, it's going to come down to personal preference. Originally, the only reason I bought a Dodge truck is because of the Cummins. The rest of the drivetrain is the same, but the front axle on the 4x4 is a little on the weak side for the heavy diesel. For towing applications, a stock V10 vs. a stock Diesel would be pretty close, though the V10 will outpull the diesel by a little. The Cummins's comercial design means it will be able to keep it up for a long time though. Also this means that it gets better fuel economy and, 7500 mile oil changes are feasable depending on setup and use. Anyway, both are easily upgradeable, but I think the Cummins can go farther for less. There's obviously the inital cost of the Cummins ($2000 more than the V10?) but, again, depending on use, it pays for itself. One other thing is that people associate the sound with big trucks wich will get mixed reactions but mine have been mostly posative, and you should see the looks on peoples faces when they see a perfectly stock Diesel truck smoke the tires (ok so I gotta show off a little bit!). I know the V10 can do that better but nobody expects it from a Diesel :-). In off road, the V10's higher redline and more horsepower (not to mention lighter weight) are a major asset in sand and mud, on any crawling trails the Cummins is incredible, and either one has an impressive crawl ratio behind the 5-speed (6-speed?). I have noticed that the GVWR's are the same for both V10 and Cummins and GCWR may favor the V10 untill the Cummins get 4.10 gears, indicating Dodge feels 10 ft lbs is significant. For the plow, the V10 would probably be better because of the weight involved. I don't know if the front axle will hold up with a diesel plowing application. I do remeber that snow plow prep was available because I ordered my truck with it and then deleted it (which I now regret, oh well).

L.I.F.E. Bootcamp and Investor Day to Get You and Your Startup Investor Ready!
The 15 startups that were shortlisted for the program went through a rigorous two-day program and presented to investors on the third and final day.
L.I.F.E. (Leader In Female Entrepreneur) held its first three-day “Boot-camp and Investor Day” in Delhi from 18th to 20th April at the Indian Habitat Centre. The camp was designed for early stage startups to help them refine their business models and help them with creating a complete package to become investor ready.
“We partnered with some of the prominent players in the startup ecosystem in India to design the boot-camp that not only provides the essentials for building an early stage startup, but also make it investor ready,” says Juhee Sachdev, founder and CEO of Leader In You that conceived and conducted the boot-camp.
The 15 startups that were shortlisted for the program went through a rigorous two-day program and presented to investors on the third and final day. The investors included Indian Angel Network, Kae- Capital, Ah! Ventures and NASSCOM 10000 Start Up among others. The Bootcamp was an action based program where all the start-ups enhanced their value proposition, business model, elevator pitch using the proven tools and templates.
“Articulation of the value proposition and delivering your message in front of the investors is very critical, and this is what the program helps the entrepreneurs do,” says Navin Honagudi, the Investment Director at Kae capital.
Our entrepreneur participant, Bishalakhi Ghosh, Co-founder GIV Central says, "We found out that there are things about value proposition that we are not articulating properly. When the customer segmentation happened; very frankly speaking entrepreneurs sometimes don’t think about. But the depth in which customer segmentation can be done and personas can be created has given us very new approach to look at the market.”
"The program was designed to give the participants a holistic view to not only present their businesses in front of potential investors but also give them day to day executional tools to manage them better," adds Ashish Manchanda, the founder of Culturro, facilitator partners for the program.
The four winners of the Investor's Day will go for the second round of discussion with the Investor panel and mentoring from the LIFE Program mentors panel.
“It is a great initiative to help early stage startups to prepare for the next level. The feedback from mentors and investors was amazing and would definitely help the participants to make their ventures much stronger and attractive for the investors,” adds Harshdeep Rapal, Founder & CEO of LeanFlo Inc.
Digvijay Singh, Vice President, Indian Angel Network speaks that “Good effort by L.I.F.E. Bootcamp. It helped many newcomers learn the ropes of the startup ecosystem.”
L.I.F.E. intends to conduct the Boot-camp in three more cities across India in next 6 months.

Pigeon charged, held in alleged sexual assault of a minor
Longtime political operative G. Steven Pigeon, whose many past roles includes Erie County Democratic Committee Chairman, was formally charged Thursday morning with six counts related to an alleged incident five years ago involving a girl, according to prosecutors, was younger than 11 years old at the time.
“These allegations stem from one evening,” said Erie County District Attorney John Flynn, who says the incident occurred at some time between Thanksgiving and Christmas of 2016. “There were actually two separate events that occurred this evening, allegedly, that resulted in these charges.”
Pigeon is charged with two counts of Predatory Sexual Assault Against a Child (Class A-II felonies), one count of First Degree Rape (Class B felony), one count of Criminal Sexual Act in the First Degree (Class B felony), one count of First Degree Sexual Abuse (Class D felony), and one count of Endangering the Welfare of a Child (Class A misdemeanor).
Prosecutors say the victim was known to the defendant. While Flynn would not verify the location of the incident, it was suggested in court the alleged crime happened at a residence in Hamburg.
Pigeon surrendered to New York State Police in Clarence Thursday morning. He appeared before State Supreme Court Justice Christopher Burns later that morning, wearing an orange jumpsuit. His attorney, Justin Ginter, entered a plea of not guilty on Pigeon’s behalf. Pigeon was ordered held without bail. Ginter did not comment on his client’s case as he left the courtroom.
A hearing is scheduled for Monday, December 6 before Justice William Boller. It is expected motions to set a bail will be heard at that time.
If convicted of all counts, Pigeon faces a maximum of 25 years to life in prison.
In addition, an order of protection for the victim and her family was issued by Justice Burns. Prosecutors allege that Pigeon, suspecting something was going on earlier this year, attempted to contact the family to acquire information, first through a text message, next by a personal visit, and third by a visit by two of his associates.
The DA also dismissed claims by the defendant in a published article late Wednesday that he was perhaps being set up by someone with a grudge.
“The information that has been put out there now also needs to be corrected, especially the information that allegedly came out of his mouth, which is that this must be somehow related to child pornography or something on my computer or something on my phone or some guy in the FBI wants to, you know, get back at me for something. I can tell you that all of that is utter nonsense,” Flynn said. “I can tell you that this case right here has absolutely nothing to do with any of his previous charges. It has nothing to do with anything the FBI was looking at. It has nothing to do with anything the Attorney General was looking at it, quite frankly.”
Flynn explained that this case started during the summer when an attorney representing the victim’s family came forward to the District Attorney’s Office, which later turned to New York State Police.
Pigeon is already awaiting sentencing in federal court for charges including conspiring to arrange an illegal campaign contribution. He pleaded guilty in that case three years ago but sentencing was delayed numerous times. Pigeon is scheduled to be sentenced in that case December 14.
His political career spans back to his teen years, beginning with work on James Griffin’s Buffalo mayoral campaign. He was elected to the Erie County Legislature in 1987, and later became chair of the Erie County Democratic Committee, a role he held from 1996 to 2002.
Flynn, during his news conference, was asked about potential conflicts of interest, given Pigeon’s experience as a campaign fundraiser. The DA told reporters he had not spoken to Pigeon over the past six years, nor did Pigeon work on his 2016 campaign.

World Cup 2018: India, China should take a lesson from Iceland
Imagine a country with less than 4 million population which has little land space and fewer facilities and to top it all is almost always covered in snow, just made it to the World Cup final in Russia.
This is Iceland and if you are surprised how it made it to the world’s biggest football stage in Russia, look no further than Euro 2016 when eleven brave Icelanders ejected Wayne Rooney’s England from the European stage.
England’s former coach Roy Hodgson should remember these men very well!
So don’t be surprised if they surprise Messi’s Argentina in their opening match, just like Italia 90 when Maradona’s men were blasted out by Roger Milla’s Cameroon.
Gylfi Sigurdsson has played an integral role in Iceland reaching Russia 2018. He was named Icelandic Player of the Year for continuous five seasons. In an interview, he said: "We’re looking forward to seeing the thunderclap in Russia”.
Iceland supporters performing the 'thunderclap' is an extraordinary sight. A noisy and visually spectacular display of synchronicity and passion, it has the ability to give those watching – and those taking part real-time goosebumps.
Now they have been placed in group D and will play their first match against Argentina and rest other games with Croatia and Nigeria.
Iceland may be ranked 21st in the FIFA rankings but don’t measure them by numbers alone, these men are a handful as Messi & Co are sure to find out!
In fact, the story of this World Cup could well be the rise of small nations with Panama, Peru, Egypt heading out against the big guns with Iceland leading the charge.
Big countries – India and China who have invested several hundred crores in football from India’s ISL and China’s lucrative football league should take a few lessons on how Iceland and other small nations have used their resources to emerge on the world stage.
Sometimes money is not the only factor which counts – especially in football, because the beautiful game belongs to men of passion and Iceland has it in them to prevail in Russia next year.

Amazon is offering a Sunday delivery service for Amazon Prime members in seven UK cities.
The company will begin delivering on a Sunday to people in London, Birmingham, Milton Keynes, Oxford, Nottingham, Manchester and Leeds after a short trial with Amazon Prime members in London before Christmas.
The service will be provided by Amazon Logistics, which works with regional delivery companies and operates a number of delivery stations that act as hubs in local areas.
Jamie Stephenson, UK director for Amazon Logistics, said: “At Amazon, we’re continually innovating on behalf of our customers. We know customers really appreciated the immediacy of Sunday deliveries during the Christmas period and we were able to deliver thousands more parcels in this way in those four weeks.”
Amazon customers in the selected UK areas will see the Sunday delivery option when they check out with items they have chosen to purchase.
The Sunday delivery service can be seen as a further attempt to encourage customers to sign up to the company’s Amazon Prime service. Earlier this month, Amazon changed its delivery terms and conditions to charge customers £10 on delivery of books, CDs and DVDs for standard delivery on orders under £10. Before 7th January, standard delivery on books was free. The Amazon Prime service offers customers “unlimited one-day delivery with no minimum order size” for £49 a year, along with access to over 350,000 e-books to borrow through the Kindle Owners Lending Library.
Amazon said just after Christmas that “more than one million customers around the world became new Prime members in the third week of December”. Just after January, a report by a US analyst indicated the company had confirmed it had more than 20 million Prime members altogether.

DHAKA, May 13, 2018 (BSS) – Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) today launched a Taka 20 crore project in the country to increase small and marginal farmers’ access to finance aiming to boost crop production through strengthening the knowledge and capacity of farmers’ organisations.
The project was launched at a workshop at BARC auditorium in the capital.
Agriculture Minister Matia Chowdhury spoke the inaugural session of the workshop as the chief guest while Bangladesh Bank Governor Fazle Kabir and Senior Agriculture Economist of Global Agriculture and Food Security Programme (GAFSP) under Missing Middle Initiative (MMI) Dr Iftikhar Mostafa were present as special guests.
The FAO project aims to develop each farmers organisation’s capacity to ensure access to value chains, markets, technical knowledge, information and financing through training and pilot activities.
The three-year project will be implemented in eight districts – Barguna, Patuakhali, Barisal and Jalakhati under southern region and Rangpur, Kurigram, Nilphamari and Lalmonirhat in northern region, FAO officials said.
Speaking at the workshop, Matia said the project on ‘Missing Middle Initiative (MMI) – Increasing Access to Finance for Farmers Organisations of Bangladesh’, funded by the GAFSP, will help bring a change in eliminating rural poverty as a whole and increase productivity.
Earlier, the Integrated Agricultural Productivity Project (IAPP), financed by the GAFSP with US$ 50 million, was implemented in the country in 2011 and increased crop productivity in the country’s north and southern region, she said.
“The country is moving from subsistence agriculture into commercial agriculture,” said FAO Representative to Bangladesh David W Doolan, adding that Bangladesh has made a marked progress in meeting cereal needs of its people.
He said the Global Agriculture and Food Security Program (GAFSP) was launched by the G-20 countries in 2010 for ensuring agriculture and food security across the world.
In 2016, the FAO has submitted a proposal on increasing financial access for farmers’ organisations of Bangladesh to the GAFSP with an approval from Ministries of Agriculture and Finance.
Then Bangladesh achieved the project after competing with 56 other GAFSP countries in 2017, said David, adding that finally a contact was signed between the FAO and the Economic Relations Department (ERD) of Bangladesh for implementing the project in 2018.
Additional Director of the Department of Agricultural Extension (DAE) Kazi Saiful Islam presented a keynote paper at the session with Senior Secretary of the Agriculture Ministry Mainuddin Abdullah in chair.

So after paying a fortune on injector trouble stated in my last post.
Car is loosing water. No visible leaks. Water pump was changed a week ago. Was loosing water before. I Was topping up then but not as much. Its Worse now
Radiator pipe on right hand side near battery as alot of pressure this softens when i loosen bleed screw.
Water bottle has oil vapour but actual coolant is clean.
Dipstick has no water signs or oil filler cap.
Suspicion is water is escaping through the overflow pipe due to pressure.
As when we take the bleed/rubber bung of water bottle. There is alot of pressure and bubbles.
No leaks inside in cabin either so heater matrix should be ok.
Mileage is approx 180,000
Is it headgasket or is there a blockage in cooling system.
Alot of problems with this engine compared to 1cd-ftv engine

Apple has told MacCentral that CEO Steve Jobs' promise that the company will offer 3GHz G5 Power Macs this summer won't be met.
Jobs made the promise at last year's Worldwide Developers Conference, and the company's newly unveiled Power Mac G5 line up all fall short of the 3GHz goal.
"The technology challenge is bigger than we expected," admitted Apple's director of Power Mac product marketing Tom Boger.
He added: "It's actually quite simple. When we made the prediction that we would reach 3GHz within a year, we just didn't realize the challenges moving to 90 nanometer would present. It turned out to be a much bigger challenge than anyone expected."
Boger also told MacCentral that Mac users shouldn't expect to see PowerBook G5s before the end of the year because "the technical challenges of putting that G5 in a small enclosure are not trivial".
It is a similar story with the iMac G5. "The challenges are obvious when you look at the G5 and the size of the heatsinks and the enclosure; that the iMac would be a heck of a challenge as well," Boger said.

About the Book
The Cover-Up of a Lifetime
Quirky and creative, 13-year-old tomboy Christina dodged recurring nightmares, fickle friends, contemplating suicide, cruel classmates, and unpredictably abusive parents, only to find herself suddenly confronted with a flood of childhood memories of sexual abuse seemingly from nowhere. Stuff no 13-year-old could just make up — but still — were these foggy memories real?
In the midst of overwhelming emotional turmoil at 16, armed only with those memories, the introductions started: creatures from fantasy coming forward in Christina's head, a strange reunion of the people who had always stood by her side to face her haunted lifetime. This intersected a series of nervous breakdowns leading to a suicidal disaster.
On the other side of the unthinkable, everyone pooled their resources to rebuild their shared life: try to locate their lost marbles, navigate legal trouble, figure out how to work together, forge healthy relationships, fix their broken boundaries, overcome a traumatic past, and plan a worthwhile future. When they finally get some proof of abuse, Christina disappears entirely. In her place are a group of babies, children, and pre-adolescents in desperate need of reparenting.
We are the Crisses, and this is our story of facing our past, falling apart over the years, coming back together — and our enormous Split Decision.
About the Author
If there were a who's who of online multiple-personalities, the Crisses would be one of the notable names. Founder of Kinhost.org, the premier online manual by multiples, for multiples, the Crisses (aka Rev. Criss Ittermann) are well-known amongst persons with multiple personalities. They are also a life coach, Interfaith minister, Shaman, herbalist, Reiki Master, and more.
Crisses grew up in Brooklyn and at the age of 16 following an avalanche of tragic events, Crisses spent 9 months in a mental hospital. The adolescent ward of the hospital was far from what you may have seen in movies; it was much more like a Breakfast Club vacation from a troublesome life than a traumatic experience from a psychothriller movie. Quiet, observant, and wise beyond their years, Crisses became a "mother hen" for other people who were outcast from society, for whatever reason.
While in the hospital, Crisses confessed about the "other people" in their head to their doctor. While he didn't put their diagnosis on paper until 2001, Crisses were diagnosed with multiple personalities in 1986 and flat-out refused to integrate.
After discharge from all treatment, the Crisses continued their journey to their own particular brand of wholeness — a life of collaboration, understanding, kindness and community within themselves. They now share the tools that have helped them with others so that other multiples can improve internal relations and communication.

KOLKATA: Responding to repeated appeals by the chief minister and a section of parents facing financial constraints due to the lockdown, prominent city schools have started offering fee concessions and urging guardians to clear the arrears so that they can pay staff salaries.
Parents’ groups have been repeatedly pleading with school managements for rollback of fee hikes and waivers in components like library, laboratory, computer and transport charges since schools are shut. Last week, CM Mamata Banerjee weighed in with the parents and urged private schools not to charge fees for services not availed by students but added that she did not subscribe to the ‘no fees during lockdown’ demand since schools needed to pay salaries.
With many parents not clearing fees for the first quarter, several schools resorted to cutting teachers’ salaries. Now, with payment due date for the July-September quarter fast approaching, the school managements are offering some form of waiver to coax parents to pay the dues.
Over 300 parents of Heritage School recently met the school authorities with proof of financial constraints and were granted fee waivers. The school has also cut bus fees by 30% and meal charges by 50%, and waived off late fees for the previous quarter.
Don Bosco Park Circus has not only waived off late fees but given parents the option to clear the arrears in instalments.
The principals of six Loreto schools in the city are meeting parents in financial trouble and extending waivers on a case-to-case basis.
“We have given a 30% waiver on transport fee for quarter one and 50% for quarter two,” said DPS Ruby Park vice principal Indrani Chattopadhyay.
South City International, too, has offered 50% waiver on transport fee and done away with late fees. “Parents are at liberty to pay arrears and current dues in instalments,” said principal John Bagul.
Nava Nalanda has slashed fees by 18% and allowed guardians to clear their dues in six equal monthly instalments.
With teachers’ salaries in jeopardy since April, Xavier’s Institution in Panihati has waived off transport charges completely and appealed to parents to start paying the arrears.
The principal of Asian International School, Vijaylakshmi Kumar, has assured parents that there will be no late fee for the entire academic year of 2020-21. The school has waived off 40% transport fee for quarter one and 50% for quarter two and allowed parents to pay in monthly instalments.
While archbishop Thomas D Souza has announced a 50% waiver in annual fees in schools run by the archdiocese, schools under the Church of North India (CNI) will meet under the chairmanship of Bishop Paritosh Canning on Wednesday to discuss the fees and non-payment.
A state board affiliated private school off Gariahat, La Maternelle High School, which has not been able to pay its teachers their full salaries for April and May, has appealed to parents in a WhatsApp message to pay the fees thinking of it as “gurudakshina”. The school has offered a 25% concession on tuition fees.
A prominent city school, which had earlier reduced some components of the fee and extended the last date of payment of first quarter fees to June 30, sent a mail to parents on Tuesday Given it would be “left with no option but to exclude your ward from online classes” and restrict “access to resource material” if first quarter fees are not paid by July 10. The mail triggered an agitation by parents in the evening.

Erectile dysfunction can affect men of all ages and involves insufficiency in achieving erections thus decreasing libido and sexual stamina. It is a condition that can affect a man’s ego negatively, but luckily lots of remedies have been produced to make it possible for men to gain back their lost glory. Most of these remedies are supplements designed for men in the form of capsules and pills and even jelly. Kamagra reviews will tell you more about your options so you can make an informed decision.
Kamagra is one such medication designed to help men out. It is a generic form of the famous Viagra prescribed for those suffering from erectile dysfunction. Kamagra is available in pill and oral jelly form. The oral jelly is suitable for men who do not find swallowing of pills very pleasant.
How Kamagra works
Erections are achieved when there is enough blood flow to the penis. Kamagra works by relaxing blood vessels within the penis so that the blood flows freely into the penis without flowing back out quickly. This way, men are able to maintain an erection long enough. It is important to remember that Kamagra does not increase sex drive nor does it arouse a man in any way; it only ensures that an erection is achieved when the man is sexually aroused. Just like any other medication, it works differently in different bodies. For some the result can be enjoyed as fast as thirty minutes after taking whereas for others it could take around an hour for the same to be achieved. It is recommended by physicians that men take the medication an hour before sex.
Kamagra Oral Jelly review
Kamagra 100mg oral jelly is a penile stimulant from Ajanta. It is designed to improve blood flow to the penile tissues so an effective erection is achieved. It comes in sachets that need to be squeezed out and consumed before sexual activity. The oral jelly is available in different flavors so men can select according to their preferences. You can buy Kamagra jelly online from merchandise sites and online pharmacies.
The jelly contains 100mg of sildenafil which is sold as approved FDA approved Viagra drug. It functions by inhibiting phosphodiesterase-5 which is an enzyme with ability to decrease the duration of an erection and size as well by reducing blood flow to the penis. By blocking the enzyme activity, Kamagra dilates blood vessels leading to quicker and better blood flow very important for achieving and maintaining erections before sexual intercourse and after.
Using the oral jelly
The contents of the sachet should be squeezed out into a spoon and taken at least 30 minutes before sexual activity. Of course its effects will be seen when there is sexual stimulation. These effects can last around four hours. Kamagra 50mg is the usual dose for most which is half the sachet but the dosage can be increased depending on user tolerance and results. High fat meals and alcohol need to be avoided before intake. It is also important that no more than a sachet is taken within 24 hours.
- The oral jelly is made using Sildenafil which is an FDA approved drug and a good choice for treating erectile dysfunction.
- It is available in different flavors to match different preferences.
- The jelly appeals to many more than pills.
- Lacks comprehensive ingredients list
- No clinical trials and not free trial samples
- Every day use required to keep the effects
Kamagra oral jelly is not recommended for those with serious heart issues, blood pressure irregularities, Sildenafil allergies and those under blood pressure medications or organic nitrates. It should also be taken under supervision for patients with priapism risks and penis deformities.
The side effects
The active ingredient in the oral jelly which is sildenafil has side effects just like it is the case with most drugs. The most common are headaches, facial flushing, stomach upset, back pains and nasal congestion, but luckily these can be minimized by drinking plenty of water. Adverse effects like photosensitivity, changes or loss of vision and hearing, priapism and lethargy and fainting are also possible but rare. In case of these, taking should be stopped and medical attention is advised.
Kamagra Gold 100 pills review
Just like the Kamagra oral jelly, Kamagra 100mg gold jelly is a penile stimulant from Ajanta. It is designed to improve blood flow to the penile tissues so an effective erection is achieved.
The tablets contain 100mg of sildenafil which is sold as approved FDA drug. It functions by inhibiting phosphodiesterase-5 which is an enzyme with ability to decrease the duration of an erection and size as well by reducing blood flow to the penis. By blocking the enzyme activity, Kamagra dilates blood vessels leading to quicker and better blood flow very important for achieving and maintaining erections before sexual intercourse. This is a prescription medicine available in chemists and pharmacies.
Does it really work?
Kamagra Gold increases flow of blood to the penis giving longer, stronger and harder erections that every man prides in. This is usually because of increased nitric oxide content within the body, allowing muscles to relax and the veins to expand around the penis area. More blood and oxygen manage to get through hence the erection results.
Using the Kamagra Gold 100mg tablets
The tablets need to be taken orally with water and this must be at least 45 minutes before sexual activity. The maximum effects are of course going to be experienced with sexual stimulation. The product comes in 100mg dosage, but lower dosages are recommended before eventually increasing to desired dosage that works for the patient taking the tablets.
One pill is enough to give the desired results for about four hours and it is important that not more than one is taken within 24 hours. Some recommend taking the pill at night as compared to taking during the day for reasons not very clear. It can be taken also by those with mild erectile dysfunction and men with higher levels of anxiety to alleviate and improve well-being.
- Kamagra Gold 100mg tablets are prescription drugs hence safety is assured
- They are cheaper compared with Viagra
- Offers the same effects as Viagra
- Has high quality ingredients and is also manufactured under high qualities
- The product has passed FDA guidelines
- Kamagra gold comes with a number of side effects
- A prescription may be needed before purchasing the tablets
- Only authorized dealers can distribute this product
- Over dosing leads to serious effects and it is therefore important that you follow recommended dosages. A tablet daily is the right dosage with the Kamagra Gold.
- If you have ailments like low blood pressure, high blood pressure or any eye and heart problems, ensure your doctor knows before taking the pills. The doctor should be able to advise you further in relation to your sexual condition and history so that you avoid complications.
- Avoid lying down too suddenly or waking up too fast as you can experience dizziness after taking the drug.
- Alcohol intakes should be limited when taking the medication.
- Older patients should remember that they are prone to being sensitive to Kamagra Gold hence necessary precautions should be taken.
The side effects
Most patients taking the tablets complain of dizziness, stomach upset, headaches, diarrhea, runny nose and flushing. Changes in blood pressure and bleeding disorders have also been experienced in some rare cases. Allergic reactions are possible and when they occur, it is important to stop intakes and consult your doctor for any necessary medical attention. To avoid the effects like prolonged erections and hypotension, the tablets should always be taken as instructed.
Kamagra Fizz Review
Just like Kamagra Gold and Kamagra oral jelly, Kamagra Fizz is made to help with erectile dysfunction. It has the very same ingredients and what differs is the form in which it is taken. It comes in dissolvable form so that men can enjoy faster results because absorption into the blood is made faster once consumed. It can be termed as the most recent of Kamagra products for men. It is basically a quick dissolving pill that you simply put in a glass of water before drinking. It has a very pleasant lemon flavor, making a very good option for those who do not like the oral jelly or pills. You not only get a stronger and longer erection with the fizz but also a delicious drink. Its dose power is 50mg and 100mg just like other similar products.
How to use Kamagra Fizz
The fizz is packaged in 100mg tablets that require dissolving before consuming. Simply put half a pint of water into a glass and put the tablet in. Allow it to dissolve and then drink the water. You still will be required to take the fizz several minutes before any sexual activity to enjoy a full strong erection. The effects can last for around 4 hours, but it is important that only one fizz is taken per day. It is important to consult your doctor before going ahead with the fizz and just as important to ensure that you follow instructions thoroughly.
- Kamagra fizz is a fast action ED medicine and the first effervescent medication, you can find in the market. It is absorbed into the blood stream faster generating hard erections few minutes after consumption.
- The fizz has a pleasant taste and you will enjoy every gulp. You will love the lemon flavor if you do not like swallowing tablets or using the oral jelly.
- It has the same qualities as the other Kamagra products for erectile dysfunction. The very same ingredients are used in this product as the market pioneer Viagra so you can be sure to enjoy great results or less.
- You need to take the fizz every time you need to achieve and maintain and erection
- It has side effects just like the other sildenafil products
Kamagra fizz must not be taken before work that requires physical and mental alertness such as flying place or driving a car. Alcohol should also be minimized or avoided because it has nitrates that can cause health harms. It is also important that it is not used together with any other medications. If you are under medication for any health issue ensure you consult your doctor before taking the Kamagra fizz.
The side effects
The most common side effects that are associated with consuming the fizz include headache, facial flushing, diarrhea and indigestion. The side effects vary from one patient to another and there could be other additional effects depending on how individual bodies react to the Kamagra fizz. If you experience serious effects or if they seem to worsen stop taking the fizz and seek medical attention immediately.
Kamagra Polo Review
The other erectile dysfunction product under Kamagra is the Kamagra Polo Tablets. The generic version of Viagra is just as good as the jelly, fizz and tablets only that it is designed to be chewable. The Sildenafil Citrate in the polo increases the blood flow to the penis vasodilating it, hence a strong long erection is achieved. The diameter of the arteries increases in a short period of time, hence the quick erection results that the Kamagra Polo has to offer.
Men with erectile dysfunction will find the Polo chewable tablets very useful in getting and also sustaining erections so they have better and more satisfying sexual lives. It is a safe to use product that could also prove meaningful to other problems associated with PDE5 inhibitors. The chewable nature of the tablets makes it possible for men to take them even when they are not near water sources. They are also very good options for men who have difficulties swallowing for one reason or another.
Using the Kamagra Polo tablets
The recommended dose for these tablets is 100mg and each tablet offers that. It simply means that only one tablet needs to be chewed in 24 hours. It can be placed under the tongue or directly chewed like candy depending on what the user finds most convenient. The effects of the tablet can last more than four hours, but it is important to remember that the effects will be enjoyed when there is sexual stimulation. The tablet should be taken without food or with meals that are low fat to enjoy the best results.
- Easy and pleasant chewable tables offering better options to the common tablets that need swallowing with water
- Can be taken even without water
- Improve sexual performance and in the process also boosts confidence in men with erectile dysfunction
- Offers effects that last for several hours so maximum sexual satisfaction can be enjoyed within those hours every day as needed
- Side effects are inevitable as is with other products with Sildenafil Citrate
- Offers a temporary solution to erectile dysfunction, hence it needs to be taken over and over for the effects to be enjoyed
The side effects
Some of the side effects that most patients experience with the Kamagra Polo tablets include headaches, stomach upset, increased blood pressure, priapism, facial flushing, blurred vision and diarrhea. Most of them can go with plenty of water intake but if they persist it is important to get immediate medical care.
Kamagra VS Viagra
If you have been wondering what is better Viagra or Kamagra, you should know that Kamagra is just a generic version of the popular Viagra. Kamagra has been in the market for a shorter span compared to the world leader that is Viagra but it has managed to gain lots of good reputation when it comes to dealing with erectile dysfunction.
For one, Kamagra is low priced compared to Viagra whose price is probably because of all the research and marketing that went into the product. Kamagra is simply a generic version meaning that the same product has been formulated and processed without the need to spend too much into research and marketing as it is the case with Viagra. The production cost is on the lower end hence the cheaper prices for the same quality.
Unlike Viagra that is only available in pill form, Kamagra has entered into the market with a variety of options for men suffering under erectile dysfunction. You can choose the tablets or oral jelly or even other products like Kamagra fizz, Kamagra Polo and Kamagra meltabs all designed to offer the same results in a form that suits the preferences of each patient.
Kamagra brand offers lots of product options for men suffering from erectile dysfunction. With this range it is very possible for every user to find a product that they feel is most suitable for them. The Kamagra reviews are meant to guide you into the products so you can easily make a decision as to which path is best for you. Shy no more, boost your erections and self-confidence in bed by choosing one of these high quality Kamagra products.

Q: We recently stopped at the rest area along I-16 east in Dublin. Neither of the two water fountains worked. What a welcome to the visitors of our fair state. How can this be remedied? — Melissa Calzada, Atlanta
A: The nonworking water fountains have been reported and there’s a contract to replace the water lines and fountains at certain rest areas, Georgia Department of Transportation spokeswoman Jill Goldberg told Q&A on the News. She said most of the state’s rest areas are more than 30 years old and “require a lot of maintenance at this point in their life cycle.” Earlier this year, the State Transportation Board approved spending up to $3 million to renovate eight welcome centers, and it will look into improving the state’s 16 rest areas. “We are in the process of working on a plan for updates to all of our welcome centers, and once they are complete, the rest areas will be next,” Goldberg said.

Tired of competing with his own artwork, Glasgow native and stage actor Clive Mitchell threw out the microcontrollers and discrete oscillators he once used to produce highly animated art pieces. Designed to be displayed in a frame, his latest creation consists of a passive grid of low-intensity diffused LEDs that creates a form that's pleasing to look at without getting in your face. He wires the LEDs in series of circuits of four with a 330 ohms resistor for each circuit, powered by a cheap, unregulated power supply and suitable for framing.

The Best Way for Diabetics to Lose Weight
Whether you want to lose 5 or 50 pounds, it's extra challenging when you have diabetes.
If you're prone to episodes of hypoglycemia, there are times when you have to eat whether or not you want to, and it can be frustrating to have to take in those extra calories to prevent your blood sugar from dropping dangerously low. But with some careful planning, you can rid yourself of unwelcome pounds.
Here are the top 10 tips, from:
- Adee Rasabi, RD,CDN, CDE, senior dietitian of the Ambulatory Care Network at New York Presbyterian Hospital in New York City
- Donzella Dixon, MD, internist at the Ryan Community Health Center in New York City
- Devon Carlson, MS, RD, CDN of the Naomi Berrie Diabetes Center at New York Presbyterian Hospital in New York City
1. Choose the right time. You have to be ready to make a lifestyle change and only you can decide it's time to get healthy and lose weight, says Rasabi.
2. At lunch and dinner, devote half your plate to non-starchy vegetables. And divide up the other half into one quarter lean protein and one quarter whole grains.
3. Reduce your consumption of fried foods and make the switch to grilled or baked items.
4. Get an exercise buddy, says Rasabi. "This is important because it makes it much easier to have a goal," she says. And while you're at it, recruit your own personal "support team," she says. Tell a few trusted people around you that you are trying to lose weight, and they will support you in your efforts.
5. Get moving. If you really want to lose weight, your couch potato days must come to an end. If you're out of the habit of exercise, start with 30 minutes of brisk walking a day.
Take a 15-minute walk, then turn around and walk back home.
"If you do just that for five days a week, it's enough to start," Dixon says. To really see results on the scale, you will need to work up to 60 to 90 minutes of exercise on most days.
While this sounds daunting, you don't have to do it all at once. "It can be broken up," Rasabi says. "And it's always a good idea to schedule exercise in your planner, to make sure to get it in."
6. Choose a form of exercise that you like. If you like to dance, sign up for a ballroom dancing or a hip hop class. If being outdoors is your thing, consider cross country skiing, bicycling, or hiking.
7. If you do get low blood sugar, make sure you only consume enough carbohydrates to bring your blood sugar back in the normal range. It's easy to overeat when that low blood sugar feeling comes on. Keep tubes of glucose gel or glucose candy within easy reach so you can quickly treat an episode of hypoglycemia and not overeat.
8. Shop only the perimeter of the supermarket, where the fresh and frozen foods are. Avoid the middle of the store, where processed foods lurk. "The closer you get to the middle of the store, the more processed the foods are," says Carlson.
9. Keep your blood sugar as close to normal as possible. "The more lows you have, the more difficulty you will have with weight loss," Carlson says. That's because every time you're low, you have to treat the hypoglycemia by eating a snack.
10. Be realistic about your goals. If you'll only be happy if the scale shows that you're losing five pounds a week, you're setting yourself up for failure. To lose one pound a week, you have to eliminate 500 calories a day--and that takes a lot of willpower. But a one-pound weekly weight loss goal is realistic. "Slow, gradual weight loss gives long lasting results," Rasabi says.

Humidity has a direct impact on plant growth. Due to the nature of greenhouse and hydroponic setups, controlling the humidity in this environment can be difficult. Humidity levels change with fluctuations in temperature and plants are constantly transpiring, adding to the problem. The temperature is quite different both at day, night, summer and winter, which makes the humidity hard control. If left untreated the high humidity environment will cause many problems for plant growth, such as reduction of water uptake due to foliar and slow drying of growth medium after watering resulting in root diseases. When your RH breaks 85 percent you may get fungal issues due to transpired moisture remaining on the leafs. These compound to result in a lower quality crop and poor yields.
Humidity and Vapor-Pressure Deficit
Relative humidity is a measure of how much moisture is in the air relative to how much it can hold. Water holding capacity of the air doubles roughly every 11°C. This means air at 31°C can hold double moisture compared with that at 20°C. Therefor relative humidity isn’t a good measure to go by for deciding humidity levels in a greenhouse.
Vapor-Pressure Deficit is the difference between how much moisture is in the air and how much moisture the air could hold at full capacity. Plant leaves open their stomata based on humidity and vapor-pressure deficit, therefore controlling vapor-pressure deficit is a better way to improve plant growth. The below chart is a good rule of thumb for choosing your target relative humidity to achieve a good vapor-pressure deficit.
Choosing the Right Dehumidifier for your Greenhouse
When choosing a dehumidifier for a green house you need to keep in mind air circulation and uniformity. If you put a single dehumidifier in a greenhouse with no ducting, the area around the dehumidifier will be dry. However the areas further away won’t be dried effectively. Our solution to this problem is to use ducted dehumidifiers. With this method you can have large dehumidifiers and run ducting over a larger area. This reduces the need for fans and helps create a uniform humidity level in your greenhouse.

6 of the Best Exercises for Women Over 50
Exercise is essential at every age. The more we learn how physical fitness affects our mental and physical health, the more it becomes vital to maintain a robust physical fitness program.
For women reaching menopause, exercise becomes doubly important in setting a solid foundation for longevity. In menopause and beyond, heart disease, bone density, the possibility of falls and general quality-of-life issues grow increasingly paramount.
Here are some exercises for women over age 50 and the best ways you can build strength, flexibility and balance with minimum risk.
1. Walking for your heart (and blood sugar)
Any exercise program should address your current fitness level and push you to improve. Walking is a wonderfully adaptable way to get in cardio, going as fast or as slow as you're comfortable with on any given day.
Beyond getting your heart rate up, a brisk walk after eating has been shown to lower your glycemic response. A 2018 study published in the journal Nutrients indicated just 10 minutes of light exercise after a meal could go a long way toward managing blood glucose and staving off type 2 diabetes.
2. Weights to strengthen your bones
We think of weight training as strictly for building muscle, but it also fortifies your bones.
Once we hit age 30, our bone mass begins to decline. For women, it's especially important to begin weight training before osteoporosis amplifies bone deterioration. Studies like one published in the journal Endocrinology and Metabolism in 2018 indicate resistance exercise as one of the most effective ways to improve muscle and bone mass for postmenopausal women.
Don't panic about joining the grunting meatheads at the gym to get your pump on. A simple at-home resistance exercise program using dumbbells is a great start, and introducing some straightforward bodyweight exercises, like push-ups and planks, will help, too.
3. Yoga to improve flexibility
Yoga is a fantastic addition to any exercise program, no matter your age or previous fitness level. Especially for older people looking to jump-start their fitness, some basic yoga instruction can rapidly enhance your flexibility, balance and strength—plus, it's great for your mental and emotional well-being.
Additionally, it can help if you have trouble sleeping. One randomized, controlled study showed yoga can help alleviate insomnia in postmenopausal women who were not undergoing hormonal therapy.
4. Adult swim
If you want a low-impact way to get started on an exercise program—for instance, if you're starting from scratch, or if exercise with more impact like walking or running is uncomfortable for you—think about hitting the pool.
Swim-based exercise is something you can take from menopause well into your sunset years. Plain swimming laps or aqua classes are great for strengthening your muscles without sacrificing your joints, with results you'll notice in the real world in no time.
5. Get on your bike and ride
Another low-impact way to get your cardio going is to get into biking. Not only will it strengthen your heart, lungs and leg muscles, but bicycling regularly can even improve your brain function.
A 2019 study published in PLOS-One on adults over 50 found that as little as 30 minutes of cycling three times per week had profound effects on the participants' well-being and executive function, the set of cognitive processes responsible for flexible thinking, working memory and self-control.
No matter what you're doing, whether it's exercise or just living your life, work on centering yourself around healthy breathing. Meditation is a great start on mindful breathing, which can have real effects on your physical and mental health.
Even just using a mindful meditation app for 12 minutes suggests a drop in anxiety, depression and even chronic pain, according to a 2019 study set to be published in JMIR Research Protocols.
What to remember
Reaching menopause in this day and age is little more than a signpost pointing toward a new, long and rewarding chapter in a woman's life. But if you don't take care of the machine, the next 50 years aren't going to be as fulfilling as they could be.
Hopefully, these exercise suggestions can help women over 50 activate their bodies and minds—and supercharge their future.

July 28, 1964 o. ERTESZEK ELASTICIZED PANTY GIRDLE Filed April 29, 1963 INVENTOR.
TESZE C BY flrromvsys- United States Patent 3,142,300 ELAS'I'ICIZED PANTY GIRDLE Olga Erteszek, Van Nuys, Calif., assignor to Olga Company, Van Nuys, Califl, a California corporation Filed Apr. 29, 1963, Ser. No. 276,394 Claims. (Cl. 128-524) This invention relates to elasticized panties in the category of so-called briefs, in that the garment is legless and is adapted to elastically fit about the wearers legs. The present application is directed to improvements in the type of structure dealt with in my co-pending application, Serial No. 238,854, filed November 20, 1962 on Elasticized Panty Garment.
My eariler application provides for garments of this type which achieve the dual advantages of girdle confinement and freedom of a brief, while eliminating excessive leg pressure or confinement by reason of elasticizing the garment as a whole. Structurally, this result is achieved by a simple combination of a torso-encircling elastic body portion which serves the purposes of a girdle, and a front panel having a crotch portion so associated therewith as to form, with independent capacities for movement as later described, an overlying front reinforcement and means in conjunction with the body, providing the leg openings.
The stated relationship between the body, panel and crotch components, is achieved by forming the body for complete torso-encirclement in the manner of a girdle by sewing the panel at the waist and along opposite edges to the body, all in a manner such that the panel overlies the body and has freedom for movement or stretching relative thereto, except where the two are sewn together, so that the bottom extent of the panel and crotch section have freedom for wear conformance independently of the body. Bottom edge extents of the body together with continuing edges of the crotch section, form the leg openings. By reason of the relative freedom of the crotch and panel sections, the garment fits about the legs without the degree of tensioning normally encountered in elasticized leg opening briefs, thus assuring comfort to the wearer without excessive tightening about the legs. The panel structure serves the further important function of reinforcing the front area of the girdle for stomach confinement, an effect which is enhanced by the capacity of the crotch section in the worn condition of the garment to tension downwardly the panel area.
The primary object of the present invention is to provide a garment characterized as in the foregoing, wherein the elasticized body and front panel portions have freedom for relative movements and conformances, but whereinI have incorporated an interconnection which supplements the stomach flattening effect of the front area of the body of the garment. As will appear, this result is achieved by attachment of a crotch piece, preferably of non-elastic material and freely flexible fabric, to the bottom of the body front and to the crotch area defined by downward extension of the overlying front panel. The resulting effect, in the worn condition of the garment, is to transmit tension from the front panel crotch extent to the bottom of the underlying body, in a manner imparting to the latter the capacity for generally vertical, as well as horizontal, confinement of the stomach.
All these as well as additional features and objects of the invention will be understood more fully from the following detailed description of an illustrative embodiment shown by the accompanying drawing in which:
FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of the garment in worn condition;
FIG. 2 is a view showing the garment in front elevation;
FIG. 3 is an enlarged cross section on line 3-3 of FIG. 2; and
3,142,300 Patented July 28, 1964 ice FIG. 4- is a fragmentary section on line 4-4 of FIG. 3.
The garment is shown to comprise a body portion, generally indicated at 10, which encircles the torso and is made of elastic fabric, all in a configuration compatible with panty brief size, but which has the characteristics of a girdle in that it has the capacity to confine and shape the body of the wearer. As illustrated, the garment body 10 is shown to be made, in practical effect, of elastic fabric 11 having its elastic threads running horizontally to afford greater stretch resistance and body confinement in that direction.
Overlying the front of the body and 'sewn thereto along seams i2 is a panel 13 stitched to the body at 14 and along the waistline 15, the panel being made of elastic fabric having its threads nlnning vertically, or generally normal to the elastic thread direction of the body portion 10. The seams 12 terminate, as illustrated, above the bottom edge 16 of the body, and the panel edges thence converge inwardly at 17 to join the continuing convergent edges 18 of a narrowing crotch extent 19 sewn at 20, see FIG. 3, to the body portion 10 at the rear of the garment. The crotch extent 19, which may be regarded as a continuance of the panel 13, has feltlike edge linings 21 which continue as linings at 22 within the bottom edges of the body 10. Like the body of the panel, the crotch piece 19 has its elastic threads running vertically.
From the explanation given, it will be observed that other than along its side and top edges of attachment to the body, the panel 13, together with its crotch extension 19, is capable of stretching relative to and independently of the body 10. Thus, while the latter serves the girdlecharacteristic functions, the panel and crotch are free to serve in conjunction with the body, as a front panel reinforcement productive of a stomach flattening effect, and also to form the forward edge portions of the leg openings 23, all in a manner such that the garment is properly and comfortably conformed to the legs of the wearer, but without that degree of elastic confinement which would produce indentation and localized bulging if the leg openings were defined by continuously endless tensioned elastic. The capacity of the front panel to stretch downwardly under tension transmitted from its crotch extent in the worn condition of the garment, results in a supplementation of inherent elastic properties of the panel by the added stretching, generally vertical, transmitted from the crotch.
The invention contemplates an important added feature in the provision of a flexible fabric, preferably non-elasticized, crotch piece 24 sewn at 25 to the lower front bottom edge of the body, this crotch piece converging downwardly to a seam attachment at 26 to the narrowed crotch extent of the overling panel 13. Thus, in the worn condition of the garment and in which the panel is stretched, tension is transmitted by the crotch piece 24 to the front bottom of the body to supplement the elastic confinement which the body otherwise affords, by exerting a downward and generally vertical pull contributing to the stomach flattening effect, and in this respect, supplementing a similar function and effect of the panel 13.
1. An elasticized brief undergarment comprising a torso encircling body made of elastic fabric, a wide upper panel of elastic material overlying a substantial portion of the front of said body and having side edges sewn to said body along extents running from the body waist downwardly to locations spaced above the front bottom edge of the body, said panel having lower side edge continuations of said upper edges which extend freely of attachment to the body below said locations, and a crotch portion connected at one end to the bottom of said panel and at the other end to the bottom part of the rear of said body, the panel being progressively narrowed downwardly between said lower edges to meet said crotch portion of the garment, the lower free edges of the panel and the crotch portion together with a bottom edge of the body defining leg openings the edges of which are adapted to elastically fit the wearer, said panel in the worn condition of the garment elastically imposing abdominal flattening force upon the underlying body of the garment, and a flexible crotch piece attached to a front central bottom edge portion of the elastic fabric body extending across and beneath said downwardly narrowed portion of the panel, said crotch piece also being attached to the inside of the narrowed portion of the panel below the crotch piece attachment to the body.
2. A garment according to claim 1, in which said crotch piece has downwardly convergent edges and is made of flexible non-elastic fabric.
3. A garment according to claim 1, in which said body portion fabric has elastic threads running horizontally and the panel fabric threads has elastic threads running vertically.
4. An elasticized brief undergarment comprising a torso encircling body made of elastic fabric, a wide upper panel of elastic material overlying a substantial portion of the front of said body and having downwardly divergent side edges sewn to said body along extents running from the body waist downwardly to locations spaced above the bottom front edge of the body, said A panel having exposed lower side edge continuations of said upper edges which extend below said locations and below the body, and a crotch portion connected at one end to the bottom of said panel below the body and at the other end to the bottom part of the rear of the body, the panel being progressively narrowed downwardly between said lower edges to meet said crotch portion of the garment, the lower edges of the panel below the body and the edges of said crotch portion together with bottom edges of the body defining lcg openings, the edges of which are adapted to elastically fit the wearer, said panel in the worn condition of the garment elastically imposing abdominal flattening force on the underlying portion of the garment, and a flexible crotch piece attached to a front central bottom edge portion of the elastic fabric body extending across and beneath said downwardly narrowed portion of the panel, the bottom of said crotch piece being attached to the inside of the narrowed portion of the panel below the body.
5. A garment according to claim 4, in which said progressively narrowed portion of the panel is free of attachment to the underlying bottom edge extent of the body.

After a period of lull, the food-tech space in India especially food delivery has picked up pace over the last few months.
Following ride-hailing major Ola acquiring lagging food delivery service operator Foodpanda‘s India operations, it is now reported that Deliveroo, the $2 billion UK startup, is planning to make its foray into the country.
Last month Uber’s local rival Ola acquired the Indian operations of food delivery platform Foodpanda from Germany-based Delivery Hero Group, and committed to investing $200 million in the food delivery business.
In India, Deliveroo will face stiff competition from Swiggy and Zomato that already have a strong investor backing and hold in the market. Uber, also launched its food delivery service Uber Eats in India a few months ago.
Founded in 2013 London-headquartered Deliveroo operates in 140 cities across 13 countries in Asia-Pacific, Europe and the Middle East. In Asia, Deliveroo operates in Hong Kong, Singapore and the UAE.
The report follows Deliveroo’s $385 million latest fund raise in September, which has valued the startup at $2 billion. The funding round was led by T Rowe Price Associates, Inc and Fidelity Management & Research Company, who have previously backed global technology companies including Facebook, AirBnB and Tesla. Its existing investors DST Global, General Catalyst, Index Ventures, and Accel Partners also participated in the round.
“They are in the midst of getting on board a person who will spearhead the launch in India along with building a team. After securing new funding, expanding into new geographies was on the cards for them,” said one of the sources
Food delivery companies have faced their share of hurdles in the country, leading to a consolidation in this space including the recent acquisition of food delivery start-up Runnr by Zomato Media Pvt Ltd. Runnr was formed last year after a merger between hyperlocal delivery startup Roadrunnr and food-ordering startup TinyOwl, both of whom were struggling financially.

In 1971, it was Lee’s intent to finish the treatise that he started during his convalescence. However, his film career and work prevented him from doing so. He also vacillated about publishing his book as he felt that this work might be used for the wrong purposes.
Lee’s intent in writing the book was to record one man’s way of thinking about the martial arts. It was to be a guidebook not a set of instructions or “How to” manual to learn martial arts. Lee’s untimely death changed the perspective of releasing the information that Bruce Lee had vacillated about. The “core writings” and various notes were put together in a logical fashion by various editors. The main editor was Gilbert L.


The two stores – in Rushmere Shopping Centre and The Quays in Newry – are just two of 14 sites across Northern Ireland facing an uncertain future.
The Press Association (PA) said the High Street chain was talking to restructuring firms about “a number of options”.
However, Claire’s chief executive Ron Marshall told PA it had no plans for either a CVA or major store closures in the UK “in the foreseeable future”.
“Any stores we do close or open in the UK would be as part of our normal course of business,” he added.
The news comes just days after the chain’s US parent company announced that it had emerged from Chapter 11 protection after filing for bankruptcy earlier this year.
