ZAMBIA has reportedly started exporting grain to Zimbabwe, which is facing serious food shortages following a drought that hit some parts of the country last season.
According to the state-owned newspaper The Herald, the southern African country had so far received up to 1, 800 tonnes of maize from Zambia.
Agriculture, Mechanism and Irrigation Development Minister Joseph Made said another 1, 300 tons were expected.
The country needs at least 700, 000 tonnes of maize to avert the crisis.
Logistical problems were reported to be a challenge, with the Zambia Grain Traders Association saying it could only export 40 000 tonnes of grain to Zimbabwe per month.
“We are only able to export 40, 000 tonnes of grain to Zimbabwe per month due to logistical problems,
“The process becomes long, but if the borders could operate for 24 hours we could push more volumes,” the association’s executive director, Jacob Mwale, was quoted as saying.
A NewZimbabwe.com report quoted the country’s deputy agriculture minister Paddy Zhanda as saying that Zimbabwe risked serious food shortages if the government failed to procure grain from neighbouring countries.
Mr Zhanda, according to the report, told delegates at a national food conference in the capital that the country was in dire need of grain, adding that anyone was free to import maize from anywhere, as long as the country’s food safety and standards were met.
Zimbabwe produced only 800, 000 tonnes of maize last season.

The TRUSU Equity Committee recently revealed that a student referendum will be hosted this fall to determine whether the university will adopt a student refugee program (SRP).
Voting will take place between Nov. 21 and 23 so students will be able to cast their vote in favour or against the proposal to have student refugees on campus.
The SRP is an initiative started under the World University Service of Canada (WUSC) which supports refugee students through providing the opportunity to study in Canada at the postsecondary level.
“It gives them access to educational opportunities that they wouldn’t have in a refugee camp and it basically provides a safe space for them to learn,” said Sierra Rae, vice president equity.
She added the committee believed the SRP would be an ideal way to “connect students with refugees worldwide” because it is a “unique opportunity” that is not available in other places.
To date, TRU is one of the few Canadian universities that has yet to adopt the SRP, although TRU’s WUSC Club was able to sponsor one student refugee, Romans Manyiel Garang, in the last school year.
“He was supported through the WUSC club, and now that’s been transferred over to the students’ union,” Rae explained. “The WUSC Club was uninvolved and along with them we worked together to basically create a solution of moving the student refugee programme over to TRUSU instead.”
If the majority of students vote in favour of adopting the SRP, one student refugee will be sponsored to enrol at TRU every year, starting next September.
In the meantime, the Equity Committee said they plan to raise awareness around campus to inform students on the upcoming poll.
The WUSC SRP is a “rigorous and competitive process” used to screen student refugee applicants through which only one-hundred and fifty are selected.
To be considered a refugee, applicants must prove that they are being forced to flee their countries due to war, persecution or violence.
“The global refugee crisis is an ongoing issue and people are fleeing violence and war and looking for safety and it’s often tough for regular people to make an impact on a big universal issue like this,” Rae said.
“But the SRP actually provides a way for students to make a difference and hundreds of universities across Canada are already taking part in the SRP initiative and I think it would be a great way for TRU to join.”
Rae added she believes students and faculty should support the program because the experience can be mutually beneficial.
She said while granting a student refugee the opportunity to pursue a Canadian education, students can also become informed “firsthand” about the refugee crisis and the global issues that create such environments.

Triple H has provided insight as to why WWE went through all the trouble of creating NXT Europe.
NXT UK lasted for four years and included 215 episodes broadcast over five seasons. The brand’s purpose was to help WWE enter the British wrestling market (and from there, the rest of the European market) while also serving as another developmental territory for the bigger brands in the US.
But NXT UK was shut down in September 2022, with its replacement NXT Europe scheduled to launch in early 2023. When asked why WWE was going through all the trouble of rebranding when NXT UK was already established and functioning, Triple H explained that a lot of it had to do with the COVID Pandemic:
“When we started NXT UK, the desire was to sort of replicate what we were doing in the U.S. and we got a start on it and then COVID hit and slowed everything down, and then we needed to rethink it. So we got to a place where we were ready to go again but it’s sort of tough to rebrand something and reboot it while you’re still running it. So we shut it down.
As Europe evolves and grows once we bring that back I think we will begin to see it replicating a bit more of what you see in the U.S.”
Triple H further explained that there’s also a practical need for something like NXT Europe.
He explained that it’s so much costlier to bring people from far away countries all the way to the United States, and that having another ‘feeder territory’ that’s closer geographically like the UK or continental Europe. Triple H had this to say:
“It’s very difficult for us to find athletes, bring them to the US to begin training. It’s a very long process for us. We can get them into Europe in a much quicker fashion and get them training much quicker, much faster, and have success in a shorter period of time. So it becomes a very key hub for us. I think once Europe is established you will see us begin to look at branching that out into other markets as well.”

The beautiful color of this fair trade sari silk is so difficult to photograph. The fringe is a mixture of red, purple, and a dark forest green, and the base is that same gorgeous dark green. The button closure is beautiful and vintage.
This wrap bracelet is approximately 25" when unwrapped. It will fit many sizes as you can tuck the button clasp around to secure it if you'd like it tighter.
I love wearing my sari silk wrap bracelets! They're super easy to care for. For care instructions, please visit myJewelry Care page.

How close are we to having Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk, a full four-belt heavyweight unification clash? That depends on who you ask and when you ask them.
Fury co-promoter Bob Arum recently expressed his optimism to iD Boxing, pointing out that there’s already a date and a venue for the mega-event.
“The date is pretty well set, it’s the last Saturday in April,” Arum said. “We’re looking to put the fight at Wembley Stadium and we’re getting close with the negotiations. Hopefully, we can get busy on that fight as early as next week and get the thing going.”
Rumors had the big fight originally targeted for Saudi Arabia, but Arum says that idea is now a no-go, despite the huge money that could’ve been involved from the Saudi side.
“The real money from the fight, which will be the UK gate, the pay-per-view, the American pay-per-view, and the other revenue from foreign sales, will be very, very big,” Arum replied. “But it pales by comparison to the Saudi money, but the Saudi money is not realistic because Saudi Arabia is not available to do that fight in the time period that is required by the organizations.”
Despite Arum’s general optimism, Usyk’s side had recently talked about some money issues that may get in the way of a smooth negotiations process, notably Team Usyk’s insistence on a 50-50 money split.
“I can’t really say anything in particular because we’re in the middle of negotiations,” Usyk’s promoter Alexander Krassyuk told BoxingScene.
“But I can say for sure if it’s a fair deal when it comes to the unification– which is the undisputed unification, where one fighter [Usyk] has three belts and the other [Fury] has one belt– a 50-50 split sounds fair….It sounds more fair than it should be.
“If Tyson accepts this fair condition, it means he’s a real warrior and he really wants to fight not just for money but for heritage…For legacy and for four belts in the biggest fight in heavyweight history at Wembley Stadium.
“…it has to be fair. As long as I’m representing Usyk, I will fight for fair conditions.”
Arum has taken umbrage with Krassyuk’s demand and, most of all, the way he’s gone about negotiating in the press.
“I like Alexander,” Arum told iD Boxing. “He’s a nice guy and he’s Ukranian– I love the Ukraine, I love the Ukrainians– but he should shut up and not negotiate in the press. I will not negotiate this fight in the press, even a little. The negotiations have to be behind the scenes.
“The Usyk people, I know his manager Egis Klimas. We have a lot of fighters that he manages that we promote. Terrific guy, very sensible. We can come to an understanding with him and Tyson. So, I’m not going to talk about percentages or statements because, once you start negotiating in the press, it all falls apart, because, then, the ego of people come to the fore and that trumps common sense. Let it [negotiations] be behind the scenes. I’m sure we’ll put it together and hopefully have an announcement shortly. I am very optimistic because of who we’re dealing with and the kind of caliber of people they are that we’ll be able to put this fight to bed.”
As for what happens if Fury-Usyk doesn’t get made? The Hall of Fame promoter is so convinced that a deal can be reached between the two heavyweight champs that he won’t even consider any alternative opponents for Fury right now.
“I don’t even want to talk about other possibilities,” Arum said, “because I’m so optimistic that Fury and Usyk will happen and will happen the last Saturday in April.”

Daihatsu, most likely enticed by the various mid-engine designs of Group B, such as the Renault 5 Turbo, went to introduce a mid-engine concept of their Charade 926 Turbo homologation special at the 26th Tokyo Motor Show in November of 1985 to great effect.
QUICK BROWSE CONTENT
The previous generation G10 Charade had been used for rallying in Group 1 from 1978 then in Group A from 1983. The little front-wheel drive “hot hatch” was a favourite amongst the entry-level category in “Safari” endurance rallies thanks to its rugged and dependable Japanese design. To continue on this trend, the more capable G11 Charade Turbo was homologated in Group A in January of 1984.
Daihatsu, in partnership with De Tomaso, also wanted to homologate the car into Group B to help boost the car’s image even further. Hence, two hundred “926 Turbo”s with the smaller 926 cc engine were produced in October of 1984 for that singular purpose. The 926 Turbo was thus officially homologated into Group B on January 1st 1985.
By then World Rally Championship (WRC) was in full swing and the cars that participated in it ever more popular. In a similar recipe to the Renault 5 Turbo, Daihatsu would devise, in close collaboration with DeTomaso, a mid-engine / rear-wheel drive concept out of the front-engine / front-wheel drive 926 Charade.
Presented at the Tokyo Motor Show in 1985, the Charade 926R (926 Rallye) made quite an impression on the crowd of journalists in attendance. With its mid-mounted engine, scoops and vents, the 926R was presented to be a dedicated homologation special built for Group B racing.
The 926R was powered by a new and improved version of the 3-cylinder 926 cc CB60 engine that was found in the 926 Turbo. The new CB70 unit featured double overhead cams, 12 valves, an IHI RHB32 turbocharger, and electronic fuel injection. This would effectively boost power from a bleak 75 BHP to a more capable 118 BHP. This unit was also a prototype of the engine planned to be produced in the next generation Charade.
As with its predecessor, the 926 cc engine size was specific for Group B homologation in the smallest B/9 displacement category of the regulations – taking into account the 1.4 multiplier for forced induction. This would have allowed the opportunity for the 926R to compete quite favourably and be one of the strongest competitors in its class. The prototype weighed in at 800 kg (1,764 lb) in its road trim presentation, which would have left plenty of room for the rally cars to meet the minimum 675 kg (1,490 lb) of the displacement category.
Other improvements over the 926 Turbo were featured, such as double wishbone suspension on all corners to cope with the demands of varied rally terrains. A wider track made possible via fender flares allowed for much wider P700 Pirelli tires to be fitted; 205/50VR15 – front / 225/50VR15 – rear, hence greatly enhancing the traction potential of the car. These dimensions entirely maxed out the limits of the B/9 class, proving that the engineers had done their homework quite beautifully.
After the extremely successful and acclaimed debut of the 926R at the Motor Show, Daihatsu had prepared sales pitches via various media presentations and journalistic test drives. As a result, great expectations were put towards the car being produced and not only as an homologation special.
Rumours go that the prototype shown at the Motor Show was a non-functional showpiece albeit it looked to be very complete at first glance. More cars were allegedly coming along when the project was entirely abandoned.
While most blame the infamous Group B ban of 1986 as to why the Charade 926R’s production was aborted, one must consider that the car in itself would most likely have been a commercial success nonetheless. A car like this could have been easily produced to the 5,000 required examples for Group A, however the “magic” of Group B for marketing products was definitely gone, and Daihatsu would never publicly tell the whole story.

We love photographing on our local beach, we are super lucky to live by a stunning coast line and near one of the most spectacular beaches!
It changes all the time with the movement of the tides and the light throughout the year. It always surprises us in the most wonderful ways.
We spend an evening exploring the beach with Adriana and Alden. Super sweet and madly in love, the pair opted to celebrate their engagement with an adventure trip to Portugal. We met up with them in the Algarve for this romantic beach session, exploring the clifftop gardens, amazing views and secret coves exposed by the low tide. A sunset walk on the open beach was the perfect ending to the evening.

I fought anxiety and started teaching happiness
Aimee Browes could never have imagined people would want to hear her talk about her anxiety.
Having agreed to speak publicly about mental health in a friend's café two years ago, she was scared no-one would turn up.
"We popped it on Facebook and 300 people turned up. The place was only big enough for 30."
Now she runs The Happiness Bootcamp - a project that uses fitness to teach people how to address their mental health issues.
Aimee's personal experiences led her to set up the programme.
She has suffered from panic attacks since the age of 13 and has been diagnosed with severe anxiety disorder.
• Watch Newsbeat's My Mind and Me documentary on iPlayer now
"My mum called them 'wobbly moments' before we realised what they were.
"I would hysterically cry and was having them every night. I'd wake up, go to school and have another panic attack, it was horrific."
Aimee, 19, received help from the NHS but found cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) treatment didn't work for her.
"I only had three sessions, but I didn't like it at all."
So instead she found a therapy which worked for her - fitness.
"I'd go into my bedroom and jump around doing burpees. I found in that hour, my head felt so much clearer than in any CBT session.
"I then built up the confidence to go to a gym and then became a fitness instructor."
The Happiness Bootcamp won the Sheffield College Student Enterprise of the Year Award for 2017.
"People start recognising how movement can really help them," Aimee says.
She is now also studying psychology at Sheffield Hallam University and is part of their Women in Leadership programme.
"I'm not superwoman. I still feel the same way that people who come along to the events do. I'm just promoting there are ways you can feel yourself again."
Aimee recently recruited volunteers to help the project grow and has ambitions to find a permanent location for the sessions.
"The hope is to have a really positive space where people don't feel judged," she says.
"A safe place where people feel like they can get away from everyday life."

By Hindustan Times
Mumbai, March 14 -- There's perhaps no better contemporary designer than Manish Malhotra to talk about fashion in Bollywood. The designer - who was one of the pioneers of film styling with Rangeela (1995) - is now paying tribute to the industry in a fitting manner. His show at the upcoming Lakme Fashion Week will pay tribute to 100 years of Indian cinema. We got him to look back at the various trends set by films over the century.
What made you pick your theme?
I've been in love with cinema since childhood. Today, costume designing has carved a niche for itself, unlike earlier, when it was not taken seriously. I always wanted to bring some change through my abilities - which happened with Rangeela - and I still try my best to work magic with every look I envision. Movies play a pivotal role in my life, so I had to do something special to mark this occasion.

Irvine-based Sabra Health Care REIT Inc. released growth strategy for next year following lukewarm investor reception to its decision to acquire Care Capital Properties Inc. Shares of Sabra stock have been lower since it announced plans to buy the skilled-nursing-focused real estate investment trust in Chicago in May, recently trading at $21 per share to a $3.4 billion market cap.
Sabra calls its new move Sabra 3.0. It plans to scale through acquisition with capital from the completion of CCP merger and previously announced disposition of skilled nursing facilities operated by Genesis Healthcare Inc.—Sabra is in the process of marketing for sale its remaining 43 facilities leased to Genesis. Both moves are designed to contribute to Sabra’s purchasing power, the former increased its borrowing capability and the latter is expected to generate sales proceeds of approximately $425 million to $475 million.
Skilled nursing is an asset class to which several REITs have reduced exposure in light of changing reimbursement models.
Sabra has entered into an agreement to invest $371 million, for 49% equity interest, of a portfolio comprised of 183 senior housing communities. The portfolio, valued at $1.62 billion, is jointly owned by senior housing operator Enlivant in Chicago and TPG Real Estate. Sabra has the option to acquire the remaining majority interest in the portfolio over the next three years.
It also bought skilled nursing and translational care facilities from a west coast operator last week. The two-step sale and leaseback transaction consists of 24 facilities. Sabra acquired 21 of those 24 facilities, and expects to close the remaining three by end of the year.

Call for halt to industrial plantations in Sierra Leone
The push for farmland by foreign investors engaged in industrial-scale plantation agriculture in Sierra Leone has increased poverty and food shortages among communities who have lost their access to land, new research shows.
An estimated fifth of the country’s arable land has been leased since 2009 to industrial farming concerns, many of them foreign companies producing biofuels from crops such as oil palm and sugar cane.
A report published today, ‘Who Is Benefitting? examines the impact large land leases held by three investors has had on local communities. It was commissioned by local joint initiative Action for Large-scale Land Acquisition Transparency, with support from Christian Aid and other agencies.? ?
The leases examined are held by Addax Bioenergy (SL) Ltd, Sierra Leone Agriculture and Socfin Agricultural Company Ltd.
As a result of its findings, the report calls for a review of all existing contracts, and a moratorium on further large scale land investment until existing concerns are addressed, and future contracts can be independently monitored.??The report says that in particular, government contracts with large investors, some who have been granted 99-year leases, need to be more transparent and respect the country’s laws, and government and companies must implement international guidelines that emphasise the protection of local people and the environment.
The report also criticises the tax breaks offered to foreign companies to persuade them to invest, which it says costs Sierra Leone many millions of dollars each year in lost revenue.
Kato Lambrechts of Christian Aid identified as a key problem government claims that just 11-15 per cent of the country’s arable land is being ‘used’ and that there is plenty of room for foreign investors.
"This shows a lack of understanding of the way the country’s smallholder farmers, who account for nearly half of working age Sierra Leoneans, use the land," she said.
"They rely on an extremely diverse and complex mosaic of land types - upland farms, land depressions prone to flooding, swamps, tree-crop plantations, fallow bush and riverine grass areas to grow a wide variety of crops.
"Much of this land is deemed ‘unused’ – but that is far from the case. Communities are promised development in various forms such as jobs and services if they sign over land, but only a few ever see real benefits."

During this 10-day adventure, you will enjoy the immense beauty of Svalbard on this high Arctic voyage among whales, walruses, polar bears and millions of sea birds.
Approaching the polar bear's favorite summer residence, as we cruise to 80 degrees north, getting as close as possible to the pack ice north of Svalbard. How far north we reach, and the exact route will depend on the ice conditions, while the many amazing locations along the coasts of Svalbard’s islands are kept navigable by the warm Gulf Stream. Onboard Ocean Albatros you will experience areas of Svalbard not easily accessible otherwise. But we are not only cruising in the far north, we will also visit some extraordinary locations in the eastern part of Svalbard with Edgeøya and in the south part of Spitsbergen like Bellsund and Hornsund.
During the short summer, wildlife such as reindeer is busy amassing energy for the icy polar winter. The cliffs shimmer with life as every surface is populated with countless birds - in a few months, the new generation of arctic sea birds is ready to leave their nests. The prolific bird life can be further witnessed in the form of arctic guillemots, black guillemots and razorbills fishing in the wake of our ship. On several shores, the huge walruses enjoy the short Arctic summer as well as many whales and seals foraging along the edge of the pack ice and the coasts. In the fleet of Zodiac dinghy boats, we are able to view wildlife at close proximity. The Zodiacs allow us to have frequent shore landings and embark on exploratory mini cruises in the fjords and glacial landscapes.
Enjoy the immense beauty of Svalbard on this Arctic adventure cruise among whales, walruses, polar bears and millions of sea birds. Experience high summer in the Arctic with the brand new Ocean Albatros - one of the few ice-class expedition ships built to withstand the North Pole’s pack ice.

Arrival in Longyearbyen, capital of Svalbard. Your vessel, Ocean Atlantic is docked close to the town centre. After boarding, enjoy a welcome drink, the Expedition Leader will provide information about your voyage, the ship's daily routines and safety procedures. The captain will then take the ship out of Advent Fjord and your Arctic adventure begins
During the night, the ship passes Prins Karls Forland, and arrives in the magnificent Kongsfjord. A visit to Svalbard in the early summer is both a challenge and a gift, as winter ice may block the inner waters of many fjords, but this will also give the best opportunities to observe the elusive polar bear, hunting for seals in prime habitat. There will also be the arrival of migrating birds at this time of year eager to settle and feed.
Enjoy your first landing at Ny Alesund, a settlement that is in fact further north than Longyearbyen, making it the northernmost town. In the afternoon, you will continue further north into the fjord system and, depending on the ice situation, you may take a Zodiac cruise along the Lilliehook Glacier.
Today the ship enters north-west Svalbard, declared a national park in 1973. You may begin the day with a Zodiac cruise in Danskergattet, looking for seals in Virgohamma, before crossing from Danskoya to Amsterdamoya to make a landing at Smeerenburg, the legendary whaling town dating back to the 17th century. There are several interesting places to visit in this northwestern corner of Svalbard. If conditions allow, you will be able to make a landing on Ytre Norskoya, where whalers had their lookout posts.
During the night, your ship will head to Wood Fjord and its branch, the Liefde Fjord. Embark on a Zodiac along the broad glacier front of Monacobreen. This gives a unique insight into the glacial forces and the unlimited forms of icebergs.
During the afternoon, your ship will steer far north towards the edge of the polar pack ice. As the pack ice retreats during summer, polar bears ride the floes north, as this is where their prey - the seals - resides.
In the morning, your ship will cruise slowly by the famous Alkefjellet. The whole area here is home to a dense congregation of Brünnich's guillemots.
More wildlife awaits as you land at the polar desert landscapes of Torrelnesset. The beach here is home to a host of walruses that lay amongst each other, feeding on clams and other molluscs that they find in the shallows of Svalbard waters.
Sail the southern edge of the Hinlopen Strait and cruise through Freemansundet that separated Edgeoya and Barentsoya. Marvel at the views of the massive Kapp Lee on the way and pass through into Storfjorden. During the night, your ship will cross the southernmost part of Svalbard, Sorkapp, and continue its way up the western coast.
As your ship has now passed the southern edge of Spitsbergen, you will arrive at the entrance to Hornsund. The fjord is 30km long and many call it the most beautiful, with lots of glaciers that calve into the waters as well as towering mountains along the shores. The mountaintops are most often covered by dense clouds and East-Spitsbergen current often leads pack ice into the mouth of the fjord. This is a sight to behold!
With the winter ice now melted at this time of year on the western coast, your ship is able to enter the southern fjord of Bellsund, on your last day of full exploration. Bellsund has some of the richest coal layers in Svalbard, and Svea Mine, far into the fjord, was formerly one of the biggest communities on the island.
Enjoy landings at Varsol Bay, enjoy a walk along the beach here. During lunch, your ship will cross the fjord along the 4km long island of Akseloya. Enjoy a Zodiac landing at Calypsobyen in Recherche Fjord, where coal was extracted in the early 1900s. Behind the buildings used for this, enjoy a pleasant walk among the tundra.
During the night, your ship enters Forlandssundet, which separates Prince Karls Forland from Spitsbergen. Your destination today is Poolepynten, a small headland named after the British whaler Jonas Poole. Today the area is inhabited by walruses that can be seen from a distance.
After this visit, your ship will cruise south towards the entrance to the Isfjorden. Enjoy your last glimpse of wildlife as you make your way towards Longyearbyen.
Your ship will arrive in Longyearbyen in the early morning. After breakfast, bid your farewells and disembark Ocean Atlantic and transfer to the airport.

Footrot is an infectious bacterial disease of sheep that causes lameness. The causal agent is Dichelobacter nodosus. There is debate regarding the role of Fusobacterium necrophorum in disease initiation. This research used an observational longitudinal study of footrot, together with quantitative PCR (qPCR) of bacterial load of D. nodosus and F. necrophorum, to elucidate the roles of each species in the development of disease. All feet of 18 a priori selected sheep were monitored for five weeks assessing disease severity (healthy, interdigital dermatitis (ID) and severe footrot (SFR)) and bacterial load. A multinomial model was used to analyse these data.
Key unadjusted results were that D. nodosus was detected more frequently on feet with ID, whereas F. necrophorum was detected more frequently on feet with SFR. In the multinomial model, ID was associated with increasing log10 load of D. nodosus the week of observation (OR = 1.28 (95% CI = 1.08–1.53)) and the week prior to development of ID (OR = 1.20 (95% CI = 1.01–1.42). There was no association between log10 load2 of F. necrophorum and presence of ID (OR = 0.99 (95% CI = 0.96–1.02))). SFR was associated with increasing log10 load of D. nodosus the week before disease onset (OR = 1.42 (95% CI = 1.02–1.96)) but not once SFR had occurred. SFR was positively associated with log10 load2 of F. necrophorum once disease was present (OR = 1.06 (95% CI = 1.01–1.11)). In summary, there was an increased risk of increasing D. nodosus load the week prior to development of ID and SFR and during an episode of ID. In contrast, F. necrophorum load was not associated with ID before or during an episode, and was only associated with SFR once present. These results contribute to our understanding of the epidemiology of footrot and highlight that D. nodosus load plays the primary role in disease initiation and progression, with F. necrophorum load playing a secondary role. Further studies in more flocks and climates would be useful to confirm these findings. This study identifies that D. nodosus load is highest during ID. This supports previous epidemiological findings, which demonstrate that controlling ID is the most effective management strategy to prevent new cases of ID and SFR.

Powder forging course of successful developed at the tip of final century is a complicated metal plastic forming excessive-tech. The rough elements of the material utilization reached 100% that does not go away any metallic allowance and dressing. It gives the material among the special physical and chemical properties, reminiscent of anti- pressure, shock, corrosion-resistant, flame retardant, insulation, and so on. Natural quartz stone and quartz sands are important industrial mineral uncooked supplies. The ultra-effective powders with the procession of non-metallic mineralization are: kaolin powder, titanium dioxide, talc, feldspar powder, calcite powder, quartz powder, heavy calcium powder, light calcium powder, fluorite powder, mica, barite powder, graphite powder, gypsum powder, swelling clay powder and so forth. The silica powder processing from quartz sand and gangue can be utilized as fillers of polymer supplies.

Blepharitis is a chronic inflammation – a long-term swelling – of the eyelids and eyelash follicles. It may be caused by seborrheic dermatitis, acne, bacterial infection, allergic reaction or poor eyelid hygiene. They eyes may become red, blurry or tear frequently. The eyelids crust, flake, scale or redden, and the smooth inside lining of the lids may become rough. In more serious cases, sores can form when the crusting skin is removed, the eyelashes may fall out, the eyelids can deform, the infection can spread to the cornea, and patients often suffer from excessive tearing. Blepharitis can also cause styes, chalazions and problems with the tear film.
Treatment and preventative care for blepharitis involves thorough but gentle clea Save & Exit ning of the eyelids, face and scalp. Warm compresses can be applied to loosen crust and dandruff shampoo can help keep the eyelids clear. This may be combined with antibiotics if a bacterial infection is causing or contributing to the problems.
Cornea Transplantation for Corneal and External Eye Disease
The cornea is the clear covering on the front of the eye which bends, or refracts, light rays that focus on the retina in the back of the eye. A certain shape or curvature is required in order for light to focus exactly on the retina, rather than in front of it or behind it.
An improperly curved cornea may be corrected surgically or non-invasively to reduce or eliminate the need for eyeglasses or contact lenses. A thorough eye examination and consultation are necessary before a treatment decision can be made.
Corneal transplantation, or keratoplasty, is recommended when the cornea’s curvature is too steep or flat to be treated with other methods, or when extensive damage has occurred due to disease, infection or injury. Common problems that require transplantation are:
- Dry Eyes
- Recurrent Erosion
- Corneal Ulceration
- Herpes Simplex Keratopathy
- Pseudophakic Corneal Decompensation
- Corneal Dystrophies
- External tumors
- Eye infections
- Traumatic injury
- Ocular surface diseases
- Chemical burn
Transplantation involves replacing the damaged cornea with a healthy one from a donor (usually through an eye bank). Keratoplasty is a low-risk procedure – it is the most common type of transplant surgery and has the highest success rate.
During the procedure, a circular incision is made in the cornea. A disc of tissue is removed and replaced with healthy tissue; these discs may be thin (lamellar keratoplasty) or as deep as the entire cornea (penetrating keratoplasty, the technique used in almost all corneal transplants). Local or general anesthesia may be used. The entire procedure lasts only 30-90 minutes.
DSAEK is the latest technique in corneal transplantation. Short for Descemet-stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty, DSAEK offers clear post-operative vision and short recovery time to patients in need of new corneas.
During the procedure, the surgeon makes a mark in the surface of the patient’s cornea with a trephine (an instrument used to cut circular sections of tissue). That mark serves two purposes: it helps the surgeon determine what size the transplant should be, and it outlines the area of the patient’s cornea that needs to be peeled away. Next, the surgeon scores the damaged section of the cornea and strips the membrane away from the eye. Then the donor cornea is folded into a “taco” shape and placed on the eye. A single stitch closes the incision.
Sometimes the new cornea unfolds on its own; other times, the surgeon unfolds it him/herself. When it is unfolded, a second stitch is made to close the wound and anchor the new cornea in place. The surgeon then injects an air bubble underneath the cornea, making sure it is centered on the eye, and dilates the pupil with eye drops.
Patients are sent to the recovery room for about one hour, after which they are examined at the slit lamp with the doctor. He or she gently presses on the cornea until most of the air bubble is released. Patients are then given antibiotics and steroid eye drops and will return the next day for a follow-up appointment.
Dry eye occurs when the eyes aren’t sufficiently moisturized, leading to itching, redness and pain from dry spots on the surface of the eye. The eyes may become dry and irritated because the tear ducts don’t produce enough tears, or because the tears themselves have a chemical imbalance.
People usually begin experiencing dry eye symptoms as they age, but the condition can also result from certain medications, conditions or injuries. Dry eye is not only painful, it can also damage the eye’s tissues and impair vision. Fortunately, many treatment options are available.
Non-surgical treatments for dry eye include blinking exercises, increasing humidity at home or work, and use of artificial tears or moisturizing ointment. If these methods fail, small punctal plugs may be inserted in the corners of the eyes to limit tear drainage, or the drainage tubes in the eyes may be surgically closed. Eyelid surgery is also a solution if an eyelid condition is causing your dry eyes.
Excess Tearing/Watery Eyes
Although tears are necessary to lubricate the eyes and wash away foreign bodies and other particles, some people produce too many tears or cannot drain them properly, leading to excess tearing or watery eyes.
Tearing of the eyes can be caused by several different factors, including:
- Blocked tear duct
- Dry eyes
- Environmental irritants
- Foreign bodies
Treatment for watery eyes depends on the underlying cause of the condition, but can often be treated at home. Artificial tears or anti-histamines may be recommended to treat dry eyes or allergies, while other causes may require antibiotics or even surgery to relieve symptoms.
Fuchs’ dystrophy is an inherited eye disease that causes the cells in the last layer of the cornea to deteriorate, leading to distorted vision and corneal swelling. The exact cause of Fuchs’ dystrophy is unknown, but is believed to be a combination of hereditary, hormonal and inflammatory factors. This condition affects both eyes and is more common in women than in men.
The cornea is made up of five different layers, each of which has a specific function that controls vision.
The endothelium is the back layer of the cornea, which removes excess fluid from the stroma, the largest part of the cornea made up of water and collagen. Excess fluid can cause the stroma to swell and vision to become distorted.
When these cells deteriorate more rapidly than normal, fluid will continue to build up and vision will worsen. Once cells are lost, they do not grow back, so this condition will continue to progress with time.
Although this condition is inherited, symptoms do not usually appear until the patient is over the age of 50. Patients with Fuchs’ dystrophy may experience blurred vision as the first sign of this condition. Blurred vision occurs as a result of fluid accumulating in the cornea while you sleep. As this fluid evaporates throughout the day, vision will improve. Other symptoms of Fuchs’ dystrophy may include:
- Sensitivity to bright lights
- Halos around lights
- Poor night vision
- Sharp pains in the eyes
- Sandy, gritty sensation in the eyes
- Fluctuating vision
While there is no cure for Fuchs’ dystrophy, there are several treatment options available to help relieve the symptoms of this condition and to prevent permanent damage. In its early stages, Fuchs’ dystrophy can often be treated with a salt solution to remove fluid from the eye and reduce swelling. Patients can also relieve excess fluid in the cornea by holding a hair dryer at arm’s length and blowing air towards the face. These methods are often successful in temporarily improving vision during the early stages of Fuchs’ dystrophy.
In more advanced stages, Fuchs’ dystrophy may begin to interfere with daily activities and prevent patients from functioning normally. In this stage, patients may require a corneal transplant to replace the cornea with full, thick layers that allows them to see clearly.
Keratoconus is a progressive eye disease in which the normally round cornea thins and begins to bulge into a cone-like shape. The cornea is the clear, central part of the surface of the eye. In patients with keratoconus, the cone-shaped cornea deflects light and causes distorted vision.
Although many theories have been proposed, there is no definite known cause of keratoconus. Possible causes include genetics, a collagen deficiency, overexposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun, or excessive eye-rubbing.
Sign and Symptoms of Keratoconus
Keratoconus often begins to develop in the teen years to the early 20s, although it can develop at any age. Changes in the shape of the cornea occur gradually, usually over several years. In most patients with keratoconus, both eyes eventually become affected.
Keratoconus can be difficult to detect because it usually develops very slowly. Signs of keratoconus may include:
- Distorted and blurred vision
- Myopia (nearsightedness)
- Double vision
- Headaches due to eye strain
- Light sensitivity
Your doctor will measure the curvature of your cornea to determine whether these symptoms are a result of keratoconus.
In the early stages of keratoconus, glasses or soft contact lenses may help to correct the nearsightedness and astigmatism associated with the disease. As the condition progresses and the cornea becomes increasingly thin, more advanced treatment is required.
- Rigid Gas-Permeable Contact Lenses – If eyeglasses or regular soft contact lenses cannot control keratoconus, rigid gas-permeable (RGP) contact lenses are usually the preferred treatment. The rigid lens covers the cornea, replacing the cornea’s irregular shape with a smooth, uniform refracting surface, improving vision.Rigid contact lenses can be less comfortable to wear than soft lenses. Further, fitting contact lenses on a cornea with keratoconus can be challenging and time-consuming. If you are using RGP contact lenses, you will need to visit your doctor frequently to fine-tune the fit and prescription of the lenses, especially if your keratoconus continues to progress.
- Corneal Transplant Surgery – Surgery is needed for patients with advanced keratoconus, where other therapies no longer provide clear vision. This usually occurs in 15-20% of cases. In corneal transplant surgery, most of the cornea is removed and then replaced with a new donor cornea. The results of the procedure have a success rate of over 97%.
Pterygium is a benign growth of the conjunctiva (lining of the white part of the eye) that grows into the cornea, which covers the iris (colored part of the eye). It can eventually lead to impaired vision.
Patients with pterygium often first notice the condition because of the appearance of a lesion on their eye or because of dry, itchy irritation. Other symptoms include dryness, redness, irritation, inflammation, and tearing. In more severe cases, the pterygium grows over the pupil and limits vision.
The most common pterygium treatment is eye drops (artificial tears) and use of sunglasses. In more severe cases when vision is impaired, surgery may be recommended.

Lonnie bunch, 14th Secretary of the Smithsonian, joined CBS Face the Nation to discuss the importance of Juneteenth becoming a national holiday and the impact of the last year on Americans.
“This is really about helping a nation remember something it often doesn’t want to remember, and helping a nation to honor those people who were enslaved but they believed in an America that didn’t believe in them.”
Mayors of several major cities are calling for reparations for African-Americans. Eleven cities, including Los Angeles, Sacramento, and Denver, have formed an advisory committees that will develop a reparations pilot project.

For more than 50 years, constant armed conflict has been the reality for Colombians. Caught in the crossfire between the Colombian government, leftist guerrilla forces predominantly the FARC, or Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia and right-wing paramilitary groups, hundreds of thousands of Colombians have been killed and millions more forcibly displaced. However, this violence has not been evenly distributed within Colombian society. Rather, as one might expect given the devaluing of Black and Brown bodies, particularly Black and Brown women, inherent to colonial conquest and its legacy, the violence has fallen heavily upon the Afro-Colombian population.
Colombia While Black:Double-Consciousness Abroad
Brit men and Colombian women voted world's sexiest - Lifestyle News
By By Alexis Coleman. Recently, I set out for Colombia with several friends from my graduate program. The impulse to travel to South America, and specifically Colombia, came from nothing more than finding a cheap ticket. My other goal was to seek out and observe Afro-Colombians. As soon as we disembarked from the plane, I could smell elitism and pride. There were people in suits walking around, students, street vendors and retired women walking their dogs.
Brit men and Colombian women voted world's sexiest
The IACHR corroborated that the situation of indigenous and Afro-Colombian women is particularly critical, as they are victims of multiple forms of discrimination on the basis of their race, ethnic background and their condition as women, a situation aggravated within the armed conflict. They face two layers of discrimination since they are born: firstly, as members of their racial and ethnic group and secondly, their sex. Being exposed to two forms of discrimination historically, they are doubly vulnerable to abuse and mistreatment by the armed groups in their struggle to control resources and territory. As previously stated, the armed groups exploit and manipulate social disadvantage factors in specific groups as a strategy of war.
That shines on all of us Has passed on. Notarial records provide just a small indication of this past life, however limited, as one promissory note from specifies that a man named Fernando Ortiz, who was heavily indebted to Bonoli, mortgaged four slaves named Maria de Jesus, Juan, Agustina, and Justo to him. Both witnesses testified to have first heard his moans around in the evening, moans that did not cease until in the morning.

Whenever I’m in in Leith and in need of a pizza fix, I always make a beeline for La Favorita in Leith Walk. Owned by local Italian restaurant chain Vittoria Group, this restaurant is famous for serving up authentic Italian pizza. But, on a recent trip, I discovered the many other culinary delights “La Fav” has up its sleeve!
Literally a hop, skip and a jump from The Brass Monkey, you’ll find La Favorita around halfway up the main thoroughfare of Leith Walk. Even though the restaurant is sizeable, you’ll often find crowds congregating outside and so I’d advise you to book a table if you are thinking of making a visit at the weekend. However, once you’re sat down you’ll realise why La Fav is such an institution…
Bring on the pizza
Now there’s one main reason I go to La Favorita – and that’s their Montanara pizza (pictured above). It’s a pretty simple combo of sausage, mushroom and mozzarella cheese, but it is executed brilliantly. The dough is thin and crispy, just the way I like it, and the sausage they use is out of this world. But for me, the thing that sets this pizza off is the mushrooms. Normally I detest mushrooms on pizza, but La Favorita do something before they put them on, marinate them in a magic sauce or something, and it makes the world of difference. If you don’t know which pizza to go for, I would highly recommend this one!
It’s not all about the pizza…
At a recent trip to La Favorita, I discovered that this restaurant was capable of so much more than pizza. I went with a couple of girlfriends, and to my complete shock and horror, they both ordered a non-pizza based main! Had they lost their minds?! As their plates arrived at the table, I realised they might be on to something. My pescetarian friend ordered the shrimp risotto, and I must say I got major plate envy when it was served. It was just a perfect portion and she said the shrimps were absolutely delicious.
My other friend ordered the chicken and broccoli pasta, and was equally pleased with her choice. The sauce was creamy without being too heavy, and she said that the broccoli didn’t overpower the dish, which is a mean feat considering broccoli can have quite a strong flavour.
Dessert at La Favorita
If the pizza is the number one reason that people queue out the door of La Favorita, then the desserts must surely be a close second.
Once I made the rookie error of ordering a starter and a main without leaving room for dessert – never again. Don’t get me wrong, the starters at La Fav are divine as well, but I remember looking forlornly at the decadent sundaes knowing that I wouldn’t be able to eat a single bite without exploding.
So if you’re like me and have a stomach smaller than the ideal, I would give the starters a miss and save yourself for dessert. The Vittoria Group has an original selection of ice creams in a wide range of flavours that are absolutely delicious. You can’t really go wrong with whatever flavour you choose, but I would personally recommend the hazelnut flavour!
If your belly can take a little bit more, then I would definitely take the plunge and try one of their fabulous ice cream sundaes. As I am such a fan of their hazelnut ice cream, their Coppa Rocher sundae, with whipped cream and Mutella sauce, went down an absolute treat at the end of the meal.
So what do you guys think? Am I right to go for the Montanara pizza every time? Is there another combo I should try instead? I’d love to hear your thoughts – so hit me up in the comments below!

Following a cancer diagnosis, award-winning filmmaker Peter Starr found the key to his long-term healthy survival was “living a purposeful life”. Much of his world was centred around motorcycling so he constructed the next part of his life to redefining and reinventing his motorcycling passion by planning to ride in 12 countries where he had never been before, or at least had never ridden a motorcycle there.
Now the renowned film-maker shares those stories in a brilliant publication Motorcycle Traveler.

Starr’s first adventure was to Taiwan in 2011, then further on and off-road trips followed to Israel, New Zealand, Australia, Finland, Poland, Ecuador, Canada, Scotland, Wales/Isle of Man, Romania and Thailand. Being a film maker, he also had considerable experience with a still camera, something that is immediately obvious from the quality of photographs contained in this coffee table large format book.
In this publication, Starr has communicated the marvels and curiosities that await a motorcycle tourist. Beautifully illustrated with photographs that are a fitting compendium to the fluency of the manuscript, in many ways this is a fitting follow-up to Starr’s previous book Taking It To The Limit – 20 Years of Making Motorcycle Movies, and hopefully the harbinger of many more books to come from the author.
Motorcycle Traveler is accompanied with a free DVD.

Estas figuras cuentan con gran complejidad y un toque 'moderno'. De Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre. Yoruba is a kind of religion which comes from Nigeria, Africa and was brought to Cuba with the penetration of african slaves. The religion is represented by many different gods, called "Orishas". An Orisha also spelled Orisa or Orixa is a spirit or deity that reflects one of the manifestations of Olodumare God in the Yoruba spiritual or religious system.
All of them have different characteristics, colours, symbols, and dances, representing the sea, the flowers, the jungle, the peace, etc. Discover your identification with the god who has the same characteristics like you. Improvisational in nature, street jazz dance stems from modern-day dance styles, like hip hop, breakdancing, funk and electronic dance. Elements of the rigid robotic movements, the marked spins often found in breakdancing and the fluid movements of hip hop are found in the street jazz dance culture.
Often, street dance encourages dancers to interact with other dancers and even the audience. Street jazz dance emerged from an amalgamation of modern dance styles that were performed in nontraditional settings.
Inspired by modern hip hop, street jazz dance resembles this original street style. Rumba is a family of percussive rhythms, songs and dance that originated in Cuba as a combination of the musical traditions of Africans brought to Cuba as slaves and Spanish colonizers.
The name derives from the Cuban Spanish word rumbo which means "party" or "spree". Rumba has also been described by some as a folkloric music and dance complex combination. The Africans brought over to be slaves had a history and culture that later merged with the other cultures they had been pushed into.
The African origins of Rumba can be traced to two secular dances of the Bantu origin. The two influences and roots for rumba in particular being from the "Yuka" and Makuta, styles of dancing. There are numerous other African influences in the rumba that helped shape it into what it is today but those are the main influences that are noticeable today in the styles of dance. But why Mix?
Well Mix represents all the dances which comes from La Rumba and we are going to learn, like Makuta , Garabato, Gaga, Palo, which make our subject full of enjoyment and meaning. It is a more relaxed, free style of dance in which choreographers and teahcers use emotions and moods to design their own steps, in contrast to Afro-cuban structured code of steps. It has a deliberate use of gravity, whereas modern dance is rigid in its technique because of the common history, the two forms afro-cuban and modern share a similar terminology and structure.
Ballet is a highly technical form of dance with its own vocabulary. Ballet's disciplined positions give you better posture, which is great for your spine as well as your appearance. It also develops your strength and muscles, keeping you fit and trim at the same time. It also builds bone density which is an advantage in later life to keep your body in a great shape and strength.


For much of Friday morning, the line snaked out the door, people lined up in a light rain for free groceries. They came for pantry items like rice, pasta and beans; for premade sandwiches and box lunches; and for fresh onions, bananas and gai lan.
A bus would arrive — route 131/132, downtown Seattle to Burien — and the line would swell even more, as people streamed off, towing folding shopping carts and reusable bags.
Each day, Northwest Harvest’s SODO Community Market gives groceries to 750 people from its small food bank south of the stadiums. But private charities alone are not nearly enough to feed the number of people in the area who struggle with hunger, officials said Friday.
U.S. Reps. Suzan DelBene, D-Medina, and Kim Schrier, D-Sammamish, toured the food bank Friday to discuss and denounce a new Trump administration rule that the state says would take food stamps away from nearly 70,000 people in Washington state.
Announced in December, the rule change applies to able-bodied adults without children, who, if they’re not working regularly, receive food stamps (officially known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP) for only three months every three years. States with high unemployment rates have been able to waive time limits. But the rule change, which is scheduled to go into effect April 1, would set stricter criteria.
The change would cut food benefits for 688,000 people across the country, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). The Washington State Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) says the change would cut food benefits for 68,000 people in Washington, in 26 counties, including King, Pierce and Snohomish.
“SNAP is the first line of defense in meeting hunger,” Thomas Reynolds, CEO of Northwest Harvest, said. “Charity is not enough.”
DelBene, who noted the average household with SNAP receives about $7 a day in benefits, said the change would drive people “further into poverty.”
“SNAP benefits are not a luxury, they are a need,” Schrier said, calling the cuts “incredibly draconian.”
U.S. Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue said the rule will help move people “from welfare to work.”
“States are seeking waivers for wide swaths of their populations and millions of people who could work are continuing to receive SNAP benefits,” he said in December.
There is debate about how many people would lose food benefits, with several states indicating it will be more than the Trump administration has said.
Washington’s estimate, for instance, is nearly 10% of the national estimate, even though the state makes up only about 2% of the U.S. population.
The state says it is confident in its estimate.
“We don’t know and so couldn’t speak to how USDA came up with their relatively low national impact estimate,” Norah West, a DSHS spokeswoman, said.
Janna Kimosh, a USDA spokeswoman, offered no explanation on the administration’s 700,000 figure, and referred questions back to the state.
Fourteen states (including three with Republican governors), Washington, D.C., and New York City have sued the Trump administration to block the change. Their lawsuit estimates that in their states and two cities combined, as many as 850,000 people will lose benefits.
Chris Suh, 32, now works at Northwest Harvest, but said 10 years ago he was struggling with hunger himself, skipping meals, turning the heat off and dreading the first of the month when he’d have to “hustle to come up with rent.”
He said when a friend told him about SNAP, “the weight on my shoulders became a little less.”
He had a job, but it was part time at a restaurant and the owner insisted on paying him in cash, under the table. If this change had been implemented back then, he said, he would have lost his benefits because he wouldn’t have fulfilled the work requirement.
His laptop now sports a sticker that says #SNAPworks, Suh said, “because it did for me and so many others.”
Staff reporter Joseph O’Sullivan contributed to this report from Olympia.

An attempt in the Arkansas Senate on Tuesday to override Governor Asa Hutchinson’s veto – that allowed for Medicaid expansion to continue – failed on a voice vote. Many on both sides expected the veto override move to fall short of the needed majority since nearly all of the lawmakers who sent the budget bill to the governor's desk- knowing in advance he planned to veto the provision that would end Medicaid expansion - were supporters of his Arkansas Works plan.
State Senator Bart Hester of Cave Springs in Benton County made the motion on the Senate floor to override the governor's veto. No one re-hashed remarks made earlier this fiscal session but speaking afterward, Sen. Hester said the fight is not over.
"Time is on my side. There's never been a Medicaid program that has met expectations. They are all over enrollment predictions and over budget. Time is going to be my friend and we'll come back next year and show that this was not a good plan," said the northwest Arkansas Republican. "We'll continue to argue."
State Senator Gary Stubblefield, of Franklin County in western Arkansas, has opposed the governor’s Arkansas Works plan. He voted to override the line item veto from his fellow Republican too.
“We have done something, the governor has done something with these tactics that he’s using to get this thing through that I’m not sure he hasn’t circumvented the Constitution of the State. It’s just never been done before, defunding a measure and then refunding it through a line-item veto,” said Sen. Stubblefield.
Proponents of the move including Republican Senate President Jonathan Dismang and Democratic Joint Budget Chair Larry Teague have said it is a constitutionally sound use of the line item veto.
Last week, Sen. Dismang said additional legislation could be presented in a special session to safeguard the governor’s veto and the intent of the majority of the legislature at the time to keep Medicaid expansion through 2021 via the circuitous line item veto route. A minority of the Republican party had been blocking the overall Medicaid budget bill which required a three-fourths majority to pass. The line item veto was crated to work around the impasse.
Medicaid expansion is made possible by the Affordable Care Act and covers over 267,000 low-income Arkansans. The state will have to contribute up to 10 percent of the program’s coverage costs by 2021.

Our Risk-Free Creative Process
During this step, we hold briefing/brainstorming online sessions to discuss ideas, understand the client's goals, study formats, and develop the best strategies. After that, we move on to developing the script and visual style guide, which are reviewed by the customer and adjusted if needed, so that everything is perfect to move on to the next phase.
Once the art direction, style guide and the script are approved, we start working on the illustrations for each scene and put together a storyboard for client's review. The arts are adjusted in this phase, prior to animation, if necessary. Voice over or presenter casting takes place during this step as well. Our producers hold auditions so the client can preview a short piece of the script with the artists voices and make his best choice. Live action recordings happen during production phase as well.
The final step starts once all artwork, filming and/or voice over recording are completed and approved. Our video editors and motion graphics designers work on giving life to each by building amazing fluid animations. Soundtrack and sound effects are then added by our audio editors to enhance the viewing experience. We deliver the finished video to the customer via an online review platform so they can easily watch it and make adjustments suggestions before seeing and approving the final version.
