Things to Do in Detroit
As the second largest metropolitan area in the Midwest after Chicago, Detroit and its surrounding urban area is home to over four million people. It's a major cultural center known for its thriving music scene and significant contributions to the world of design and architecture.
With headlines like this to boast of, it isn’t hard to see why many people love to visit Detroit every year. There’s plenty to see and do here, from museums and sightseeing attractions to delicious restaurants and iconic landmarks. If you’ve ever visited the city, then you know just how busy it will keep you. If you’ve never visited before, then you’re in for a treat you won’t soon forget.
Here are 11 family-friendly Detroit activities to fill your time on the next trip you take to our beautiful city. Work your way through this full list, check off just your favorite highlights or use it as a guide to track down your own favorite spots off the beaten path. Either way, you’re sure to have a memorable experience with some of the best things to do in Detroit.
1. Catch the Sights on Belle Isle
In the middle of the Detroit River that separates the state of Michigan from Canada, you’ll find Belle Isle — a 982-acre island that’s been cultivated as a state park. The island is a beautiful piece of nature in the midst of a busy city, but there’s also much more to see and do here than just bask in nature.
Here on Belle Isle, you’ll also find the Belle Isle Conservatory, which is a greenhouse surrounded by acres of gorgeous botanical gardens you can browse at your leisure. The Belle Island Aquarium also operates on the island and is one of the oldest aquariums in the country. Belle Isle Nature Center is another highlight, inviting visitors from near and far to get up-close and personal with Michigan’s wildlife. Additional attractions include the Dossin Great Lakes Museum — showcasing maritime life and history — a golf course and a beautiful swimming beach.
2. Get Some Fresh Air While Enjoying the Detroit World of Art
If you’re looking for outdoor things to do in Detroit, why not enjoy the vibrant art scene our city has to offer? Detroit is home to many outdoor art installations, but two standout pieces are worth making an effort to see during your visit:
- Detroit Institute of Arts: Stop by DIA to spend a few hours, or even a whole day, exploring different painters, periods and styles. This museum, founded in 1885, has one of the largest and most historically and culturally significant art collections in the country. It boasts a diverse collection of artworks, with pieces representing European, modern, graphic, Native American, African American, Islamic and ancient art — and much more. Rotating exhibits continually bring in new works, and the beautiful Beaux-Arts building, designed by Paul Cret, has been called a "temple of art."
- Dabls MBad African Bead Museum: The Dabls MBad African Bead Museum is nearly an entire city block that’s been turned into an art installation dedicated to the heritage of African Americans. Using traditional African beads, artist Dabls MBad’s installation features mosaics, murals and sculptures all along a city block, as well as a museum that catalogs and explains the history of the very same beads used to create the art.
- The Heidelberg Project: The Heidelberg Project — an outdoor art project started by Tyree Guyton in Detroit’s east side and since carried on by many other artists and volunteers. The goal of the project was to transform a poverty-ridden neighborhood where many families, children and residents felt unsafe walking down the streets to a place where every home was a work of art and people could enjoy living. Today, if you walk down these streets, you’ll see houses painted in beautiful colors and patterns in a cheerful explosion of beauty and creativity.
3. Rock Out to Some Live Music
Detroit’s music scene has never been livelier, as they consistently attract big-name music acts coming through on tour while also boasting plenty of local up-and-coming talent you can often catch around town, as well. When you come by, we recommend checking out who’s playing at The Magic Stick. This legendary Detroit rock room is located in a former bowling alley, where the lanes have been removed to make room for a stage, pool tables, a bar and a huge dance floor.
If the weather is fine and you’d rather hang out at an outdoor concert venue, then Detroit also has plenty to offer in this vein, including the events you’ll find at New Center Park. Not only is New Center a beautiful park located in the midtown area, but it’s also known for the large number of special events it hosts. Just a few of these events include outdoor movies, theatrical performances, family events and of course plenty of live music and concerts. Check out who’s playing when you’re in town or feel free to wander the park — even if no one’s playing — to enjoy a bit of greenery in the middle of the city.
Or check out Detroit's large arenas, where powerhouse concert tours stop by throughout the year:
- Little Caesars Arena: New to Detroit as of late 2017, Little Caesars Arena is where fans throng to cheer on the Detroit Red Wings and Pistons at home. It's also a great place to find music superstars of all genres who are rocking out on arena tours. Little Caesar's headliners have included Paul McCartney, Jay-Z, Lady Gaga, Ed Sheeran, the Jonas Brothers and many more.
- DTE Energy Music Theatre: Formerly the Pine Knob Music Theatre, the DTE Energy Music Theatre is located in nearby Clarkson, Michigan, and is one of metro Detroit's favorite places to go in the summer. DTE is one of the top-selling outdoor concert venues in the world and brings in fans from all over to hear their favorite singers and bands perform. Bob Dylan, Bob Seger, Kid Rock, Linda Ronstadt and Motown's own Diana Ross all once performed here nearly every summer. Recent performers have included the Smashing Pumpkins, Mary J. Blige, the Dave Matthews Band and a host of other all-star acts.
4. Get Out on the River With Detroit River Sports
When you’ve got a city set on the river like Detroit, it would seem a shame to not take advantage of this perfect opportunity. While there are beaches along the river for swimming, such as the one you’ll find on Belle Isle, we’ve got a different activity in mind for this experience. If you’re looking for family-friendly things to do in Detroit, why not take the kids and go kayaking down the river?
At Detroit River Sports, guests have the opportunity to experience guided kayak tours up and down Detroit’s waterways. Enjoy a trip to Belle Isle, explore the city’s historic canals or even go on tours set at sunset or on the nights of the full moon for a truly unique experience. Each separate tour comes with a recommended skill level that you’ll want to pay attention to, ranging from beginner to expert, and kayaks and paddles are provided. All you need to bring is your enthusiasm and natural excitement for adventure.
5. Enjoy Some Exercise With Wheelhouse Detroit
You can always explore Detroit by car, and walking is an option, as well. Arguably the very best way to see and experience Detroit, however, is to explore it by bicycle. When you visit Wheelhouse Detroit, you can choose how you want to see the city. Rent a bike to strike out on your own and ride wherever strikes your fancy, or keep things a little more structured and go out with one of the guided tour groups Wheelhouse Detroit regularly hosts.
There are tours for everyone, and you’ll always know the difficulty level and projected length before you choose which one might be right for you.
6. Browse the Stacks at John K. King Used & Rare Books
When it comes to exploring Detroit, no trip to our beautiful city would be complete without stopping in at John K. King Used & Rare Books. Selected by Business Insider as one of the world’s best bookstores, this gem is one place you won’t want to miss. The store is located across four floors of what was once an abandoned glove factory building and is today home to over a million books that stock the shelves. With a second location in Ferndale, it’s now easier than ever to experience the incredible atmosphere of this Detroit classic.
While there’s plenty to keep you occupied if you’re a book lover shopping for your next read, there’s also a lot to enjoy if you’re a fan of antiques and rarities from the past. The rare book room holds more than 25,000 treasures, including first editions, autographs, fine books and bindings, maps and ephemera. Whether you’re looking to read up on philosophy or gardening, to grab a picture book for the kids or find some classic sci-fi for yourself or to grab something gently used or much rarer, there’s something for every book lover here. This also makes a great thing to do indoors in Detroit if the weather is too poor for outdoor activities.
7. Do Some Outdoor Shopping at the Eastern Market
These days, every city and town has an outdoor market to boast about, and we’re happy to see so many of them popping up. But here in Detroit, we’re especially proud of our Eastern Market, one of the largest and oldest year-long public markets in the country.
Keep your eyes open as you browse the streets of our market district, and you’ll stumble across everything from fresh produce, spices and meats to fresh-cut flowers, handmade jewelry and crafts and one-of-a-kind works of arts. Be sure to double-check the hours and days that the market is operational before you go, however, as these will differ depending on the season. Don’t forget to grab a map, too, as you’ll need this to navigate the incredible number of stalls, sellers and streets.
8. Experience Some Architectural History at the Guardian Building
The towering Guardian Building in the financial district demonstrates Detroit's innovative history in architecture and design. This historic skyscraper was completed in 1929 and is noted for its bold and eye-catching Art Deco style. Originally known as the Union Trust Building, the skyscraper has since been nicknamed the “Cathedral of Finance” due to its gorgeous and sumptuous design that features a three-story vaulted lobby, striking mosaics, murals and multiple towers and spires.
Today, visitors can take guided tours through the building as they enjoy the beautiful design and learn about the architecture, the Art Deco movement and this skyscraper’s significance in history.
9. Grab Some Brunch at Some of Detroit’s Best Eateries
No matter what city you’re visiting, one of the best ways to both enjoy the sites and get a taste for the local food scene is to grab brunch. On top of being more budget-friendly than dinner, brunch also commonly features many fresh foods, from crepes and avocado toast to salads and wraps.
If you’re out sightseeing in Detroit and looking to grab a quick bite early in the day, there are a few spots we know you won’t want to miss out on:
- Brooklyn Street Local: At Brooklyn Street Local, you’ll find a restaurant that’s focused on community feel and locally sourced ingredients — a recipe for success in our book. While we’re highlighting this restaurant as a perfect brunch spot, they’re also open all day for breakfast, lunch and dinner. No matter what time you make it there, you’ll always be able to find something delicious. Just a few of the brunch features you’ll find on their menu include banana walnut pancakes, grilled cheese and spinach and feta omelets.
- La Dolce Vita Restaurant: If you’re looking for the restaurant that’s been awarded the title of “Best Patio in Detroit” multiple times, then you’ll want to stop by La Dolce Vita Restaurant. La Dolce Vita serves up classic Italian cuisine for both dinner and lunch, but perhaps one of their biggest draws is their famous Sunday brunch. Every Sunday from 11 to 3, La Dolce serves up bottomless Bloody Marys and mimosas, as well as favorites like steak and eggs, seasonal fruit crepes and fettuccine Florentine. You can enjoy it all while listening to the sounds of live music on the patio.
- Honest John's: For those scouring Detroit for a casual restaurant offering a down-home feel and breakfast all day, the place to be is Honest John’s. Honest John’s has cemented a much-beloved spot in the heart of Detroit residents by serving up tasty American classics and staying open until the wee hours of the morning. Enjoy your breakfast foods at any hour of the day, or stop by for Sunday brunch starting at 9 a.m. Just a few of the breakfast and brunch items you can enjoy here include smothered hash browns, breakfast burritos, blueberry pancakes and chicken and waffles.
- TRIA: A Dearborn favorite located right up the road from The Henry Ford, TRIA is an excellent restaurant option offering upscale American cuisine. Offering breakfast, lunch, dinner and late night options every day of the week, TRIA truly has something for everyone. Stop by for a happy hour from 3 to 6 Monday through Friday for food and drink specials!
10. Explore the World of Middle Eastern Cuisine
You might not expect to find the delicious tastes of Middle Eastern cooking in a city in the snowy American Midwest, but that’s exactly what you’ll get in metro Detroit. Dearborn, in particular, is home to one of the highest concentration of Middle Eastern Americans in the United States, many of whom immigrated in the mid-'90s to work in the auto industry. The culinary flavor that Middle Eastern chefs bring to the region is delicious and unparalleled.
- Al Ameer: This Dearborn restaurant serves up a variety of authentic Mediterranean cuisine. Of the five initial Middle Eastern restaurants that started up in the area in the 1980s, only Al Ameer and one other remain. Al Ameer offers farm-fresh fruits, vegetables and meats in dishes from tabouli salad to pita and hummus to juicy, flavorful shawarma and kebabs. The restaurant has been featured multiple times in Eater.com's annual list of the 38 best restaurants in America.
- Shatila Bakery: This longtime Dearborn bakery was featured in the culinary magazine bon appétit and is not to be missed. Dessert lovers can feast on iconic buttery, nutty, honey-drizzled baklava treats, and the bakery also offers luscious, cheesy pastries like knafeh and katayef, along with a variety of other pastries and cookies. Shatila's thick, creamy Middle Eastern ice cream has received an award from Saveur, and the bakers even make custom wedding cakes. They recently opened a new location in West Bloomfield.
- Sheeba Restaurant: This wonderful Dearborn restaurant offers authentic Yemeni cuisine. One of its signature dishes is a stew called fahsah, which includes lamb and potatoes and is served in a bubbling hot clay bowl alongside traditional Yemeni bread. Lamb and chicken haneeth platters also allow guests to savor a type of Yemeni fare that is traditionally cooked with palm fronds. Sheeba offers an array of familiar Middle Eastern dishes like hummus, falafel and kebabs, too, as well as delicious Yemeni tea.
- Al Chabab: Al Chabab, founded by a chef who fled Aleppo just before the outbreak of civil war, offers traditional Syrian fare in the heart of Dearborn. The rich history of that famous Silk Road city infuses the dining atmosphere, and local foods like Aleppo chilis give the cuisine a unique, spicy flair. Stop by Al Chabab to try mohamara, a unique Aleppian take on hummus that's made of peppers, pomegranates, local nuts, olive oil and spices. Or fill up with lamb or beef pies, baba ghanoush, meat, eggplant and cherry kebabs or kibbeh, a dish of raw meat with spices that puts a Middle Eastern twist on steak tartare. Sheep's head is also an option for the adventurous palate.
- Bucharest Grill: Here, you can enjoy a range of food styles, from traditional Romanian dishes to Middle Eastern classics like shawarma and American favorites with a distinctive twist. Even the briefest glance at their menu shows diverse offerings like beef shawarma, falafel wraps, quesadilla sticks and stuffed grape leaves. With five different locations to choose from, you should have no trouble finding them. Whether you’re hanging out Downtown or in Corktown, Rivertown or Milwaukee Junction, there's a Bucharest Grill near you.
11. Kick Back With a Few Drinks
After a day of shopping and marveling at all the art and architecture of Detroit, spend the evening relaxing in one of these breweries.
- Detroit Beer Co.: If you’re looking for things to do with kids in Detroit, you may think this item is off the table. But while you can certainly enjoy the Detroit Beer Co. with an adults-only party, there’s plenty for the kids to enjoy here, as well. You can find the Detroit Beer Co. in the historic Hartz building right in the heart of Downtown Detroit, making it conveniently close to plenty of other exciting spots. Detroit Beer Co. features seven to nine house brews daily, and the rotating selection makes it easy to try something new every time you visit. You’ll also appreciate the full menu of appetizers and entrees. There’s even a kids' menu, so everyone can find something to enjoy.
- Motor City Brewing Works: This Detroit favorite was constructed out of discarded scrap metal and salvaged equipment from Detroit's renowned industrial past. The brewery features handmade brick-oven pizzas and handcrafted draft beers, and the local art on the walls lends a homey touch to the ambiance. Seasonal beers rotate through the menu regularly, and the regular flagship selection, featuring beers like Ghettoblaster and Motor City Pale Ale, offers local flavor that no beer lover should miss. A cozy taproom and deck seating offer options for fresh air or an intimate indoor setting.
- Eastern Market Brewing Company: Eastern Market Brewing Company often offers live music, and local food trucks park outside to offer convenient and delectable snacks. This brewery is dog-friendly, so visitors with canine friends can enjoy a beer or two with the dog in tow. Be sure to try the signature Elephant Juice beer, or get a flight to sample several of the craft beer varieties on tap.
- Jolly Pumpkin Pizzeria and Brewery: This fun spot is known for its sour beer, but they also offer dozens of other beers on tap, and their pub food staples like pizza, truffle fries, chicken nachos and curried potato chips make for the perfect ending to a long day of exploring. If mixed drinks are more your speed, know that they have a cocktail menu as well.
- Brew Detroit: The largest brewing facility in all of Detroit, Brew Detroit also offers a variety of small-batch craft beers. Try your hand at pub games like darts, foosball and shuffleboard, sample a flight of new beers, or sip some wine while relaxing in a dog-friendly, laid-back atmosphere in Detroit's historic Corktown District.

A new treatment option for stomach cancer may be in the offing. Researchers from School of Life Sciences and Special Centre for Molecular Medicine at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) have found that anti-arthritis drug diflunisal can be used to kill Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium responsible for stomach-related problems ranging from chronic gastritis and ulcers to cancer.
The development assumes importance as stomach cancer is the second-most common cancer among men and third-most among women worldwide. Its symptoms and signs are often reported late when the disease has progressed to advanced stage. Cause of gastric cancer includes Helicobacter pylori infection, diet and lifestyle factors, consumption of tobacco and alcohol as well as genetic susceptibility. Gastric ulcers are also caused by H. pylori as it damages mucus that protects stomach and small intestine.
JNU researchers made the discovery about new use for arthritis drug while investigating a protein called beta-clamp in the bacterium which is a crucial target for drugs. A screening process with all drugs approved by the USÂs Food and Drug Administration showed that diflusinal was able to inhibit the growth of the bacterium very well.
In a paper presented in a recent issue of journal, FEBS Letters, the research team led by S. Gourinath, Professor at the School of Life Sciences, observed Âdiflunisal inhibits the growth of H. Pylori in the micro-molar rangeÂ.
Speaking to India Science Wire, he pointed out that since diflunisal is an FDA approved drug, it could be taken in combination with the existing quadrapole therapy, which could reduce the length of treatment for H. Pylori infection. Quadrapole therapy involves administration of antibiotics, H2 blockers, Proton pump inhibitors and stomach-lining protectors for four to six weeks.
Diflunisal is presently used to relieve mild to moderate pain. It reduces pain, swelling, and joint stiffness caused by arthritis, and is categorised as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It works by reducing the levels of prostaglandins, chemicals that are responsible for pain, fever and inflammation. Diflunisal blocks enzymes that make prostaglandins resulting in their lower concentrations.
The team of researchers included Dr S Gourinath, Preeti Pandey, Vijay Verma, Gunjan Gautam, Nilima Kumari from School of Life Sciences and Suman Kumar Dhar from Special Center for Molecular Medicine. (India Science Wire)

In June, Capcom detailed its plans for the Dai Gyakuten Saiban: Naruhodou Ryuunosuke no Bouken DLC, which are basically the same as those for Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. Every week, Capcom is going to release a new issue of the Randst Magazine (a name inspired by the Strand Magazine, in which the Sherlock Holmes stories were first published), with new extra scenes, concetp-art, music, and more.
Last week, Capcom released third paid issue, which is available separately (300 Yen) or part of a bundle with all issues (2 000 Yen). And today, they released the fourth paid issue of the Randst magazine, which includes:
– a short episode
– a Nintendo 3DS Theme featuring Barok Van Zieks
– a commentary video with Shu Takumi (Director), about Episode 2
– concept-art for Iris Watson, with voice clips (including unused voice clips), beta music and more
Here’s some pictures for this fourth paid issue of the Randst magazine:
Unfortunately, Capcom still hasn’t made any announcement regarding a possible release of Dai Gyakuten Saiban: Naruhodou Ryuunosuke no Bouken outside Japan.


Cycling is becoming ever more popular, and not just with road users. Governments are keen to include the bicycle as part of their sustainable and inclusive transport policies.
But more cyclists on the roads places added strain on motorists, especially in busy urban areas. So, in this the United Nations' decade of traffic safety, Heijmans is working on solutions to make cycling safer.
The Bikescout is an intelligent warning system that constantly monitors the speed and distance of oncoming cyclists, calculating their arrival time and notifying motorists via LED indicators in the road surface.
How the Bikescout works
Bikescout's tracking radar technology is already being used by the automobile industry to provide signals to other road users. The radar measures the changing position of individual road users and continuously analyses this data, up to 50 metres in advance. By taking into account the speed of an approaching object (cyclist or pedestrian), the Bikescout warns the motorist appropriately.
Especially in places with poor visibility of approaching cyclists, the Bikescout system increases traffic safety by giving timely warnings of cyclists crossing the road. Highly robust, dimmable LEDs, which can be fitted flush with the road surface, can provide signals in various configurations and are more effective and visually attractive than other safety measures.
Via mobile Internet and an online Web application, local traffic control can view the Bikescout's availability and the traffic flow. This makes Bikescout a valuable management tool as well as making our city streets safer.

Her work is fantastic and she did the entire mural in less than a week. The only regret I have is that she worked so quickly I didn’t have more time to spend with her. I reccommend her to all my friends and most of them also have Murals by Morgan in their homes now.

Creating a Snug and Loving Home for Your Pet
November 1, 2023 | by petcosy.ie
Welcome to PetCosy.ie, the ultimate Irish blog for pet lovers who want to provide comfort and joy for their furry friends. We understand that pets are not just animals; they are members of our family. That’s why we are dedicated to sharing tips and tricks on how to create a snug and loving home for your beloved pets.
One of the most important aspects of a pet-friendly home is providing a cozy and comfortable space for your furry friend. Whether you have a dog, cat, or small mammal, having a designated area where they can relax and feel safe is essential. Consider setting up a pet bed or a soft blanket in a quiet corner of your home. This will give your pet a sense of security and a place to retreat to when they need some downtime.
Another way to make your pet feel at home is by creating a stimulating environment. Pets, especially dogs and cats, need mental and physical stimulation to stay happy and healthy. Provide them with interactive toys, scratching posts, and climbing trees to keep them entertained. You can also set up a window perch for your cat to observe the outside world or create a play area with tunnels and hiding spots for your small mammal.
Nutrition is another crucial aspect of pet care. Just like humans, pets need a balanced diet to thrive. Consult with your veterinarian to determine the best diet for your pet’s specific needs. Make sure to provide them with high-quality pet food that is appropriate for their age, breed, and size. Additionally, always have fresh water available for your pet to drink.
Regular exercise is vital for your pet’s physical and mental well-being. Dogs, in particular, require daily walks and playtime to burn off energy. Take your dog to the park or go for a hike together. Not only will this keep them physically fit, but it will also strengthen the bond between you and your furry friend. Cats and small mammals can also benefit from playtime. Use interactive toys or engage them in activities that mimic their natural instincts.
Lastly, don’t forget about regular veterinary care. Schedule annual check-ups for your pet to ensure they are in good health. Vaccinations, parasite prevention, and dental care are all essential for their well-being. Your veterinarian can also provide guidance on any specific health concerns or issues your pet may have.
At PetCosy.ie, we believe that every pet deserves a snug and loving home. By following these tips and tricks, you can create a space that your furry friend will truly appreciate. Join our passionate community of pet lovers and explore our blog for more insights on pet nutrition, play, and relaxation. Let’s work together to make the world a better place for our beloved pets.

Higher oil prices and increased output helped BP Plc (NYSE: BP) quadruple its second-quarter profit from a year earlier as the oil major finally shakes off the after-effects of 2010’s Deepwater Horizon spill and the last oil market slump.
Second-quarter results have been a mixed bag for the world’s top oil companies. Total SA (NYSE: TOT) beat forecasts and boosted production targets while Royal Dutch Shell Plc (NYSE: RDS.A) launched a $25 billion share buyback program despite profits falling short of expectations.
BP confirmed it would increase its quarterly dividend for the first time in nearly four years, offering 10.25 cents a share, an increase of 2.5%. The company bought back shares to the tune of $200 million in the first half.
In a further sign of recovery, BP last week agreed to buy U.S. shale oil and gas assets from global miner BHP Billiton for $10.5 billion.
The deal, BP’s first major acquisition in 20 years, marked a watershed for the company in the United States as it looks to leave behind the $65 billion fallout from the deadly explosion of its Deepwater Horizon rig in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.
Benchmark Brent crude futures, currently over $74 per barrel, rose about 16% in the first half of 2018 and are up about 60% since June last year.
BP’s output in the first six months of the year was 3.662 million barrels of oil equivalent per day (MMboe/d), including production at Russia’s Rosneft, of which it owns just under a fifth, from 3.544 MMboe/d a year earlier. That helped underlying replacement cost profit, BP’s definition of net income, rise to $2.8 billion, exceeding forecasts of $2.7 billion, according to a company-provided survey of analysts.
The company earned $0.7 billion a year earlier and $2.6 billion in the first quarter. BP’s shares were up about 1.2%, hitting a two-week high in early trading.
BP has paid around $2.4 billion of expected 2018 costs of just over $3 billion related to Deepwater Horizon, and plans to split the outstanding payments equally between the third and fourth quarters, CFO Brian Gilvary said.
Meanwhile, the company has tightened its investment budget for this year to about $15 billion from previously up to $16 billion and increased its divestment guidance to over $3 billion from $2 billion to $3 billion.
Gearing, the ratio between debt and BP’s market value, declined to 27.8% at the end of the quarter from 28.1% at the end of March. Net debt was $39.3 billion at the end of June compared with $40 billion at the end of March.
“With gearing nudging down sequentially, dividends raised, and execution on track, 1Q and 2Q are the start of a new positive trend for BP,” Bernstein analyst Oswald Clint said.
ABB’s board of directors and Ulrich Spiesshofer have mutually agreed for him to step down from his role as CEO, which he has held since 2013, the company said on April 17.
The total capital investment of the Project is over $150 million, and there will be up to 250 people employed at the site during the height of construction activity.
Top oilfield services provider Schlumberger reported a drop in quarterly profit, hit by weak demand for its equipment and services from oil producers under pressure to rein in spending.

‘Below Deck’: Eddie Lucas Wants the Show to Return to Yachting, Not ‘F**king and Fighting’ (Exclusive)
After five years away from the spotlight, bosun Eddie Lucas has returned to Below Deck. Lucas makes no bones about it — he’s been doing some soul-searching since his “rocky” third season.
Lucas told Showbiz Cheat Sheet that producers had been asking him to return for some time. “But this time around I was I feeling like I was a good place my life,” he remarked. “I felt like I had learned a lot over the past five years from the mistakes I’ve made.” Lucas was a straight-shooter cast member who ended up getting entangled in an affair with third stew Raquel “Rocky “Dakota during season 3.
Dakota caught feelings for Lucas and when he realized the romance had gone past hooking up, he suddenly ghosted her and denied the affair to the crew. He finally came clean on the final night of the season, but left on a sour note.
Eddie Lucas doesn’t want season 3 to define him
“I came back into it like, ‘You know, this is a good time for me to come back,'” he said. “I’m in a good place in my career. My family is in a good place right now. They’re all healthy, they’re happy. And I’m in a good place personally, in my private life and everything. So I’m ready to dive back into this and show viewers that the mistakes I made on season 3 are not what define me.”
“And I’m not going to let them define me,” he added. “I’m going to come back and be like, ‘Okay, let’s make some coin. Let’s do some hard work. And let’s bring Below Deck back to when I first came into it as a show about yachting. Not just about f**king and fighting.”
Lucas isn’t the only person who thinks the Below Deck franchise has changed over the years. Colin Macy-O’Toole from Below Deck Mediterranean recently observed on the Hot Takes and Deep Dives podcast that in season 5, Below Deck Med changed from a show about yachting to a show about backstabbing.
Being on ‘Below Deck’ was never about getting camera time
Lucas shared how he ended up becoming an original cast member on the series. He said it had everything to do with working in the industry he loves and nothing to do with being on television. Lucas had moved back home to Baltimore after graduating from college and found himself selling sporting good equipment.
“I was working at REI, Recreation Equipment Incorported, a fantastic outdoor store,” he recalled. “I was selling hiking boots and rain gear and other camping accessories. And it was fun but at the same time I was selling hiking boots.” Retails sales weren’t going to make a dent in his student loans, so he looked for a job in the boating industry so he could utilize his skills.
Lucas posted his CV and got a call while he was at work. “The guy’s like, ‘Hey, are you still active? Are you still looking for a position on a crew?’ Like, absolutely, what do you got? And he explained the position. I was like, ‘Sounds great. I love it.’ But he’s like, ‘Well, this is actually a little different.’ Then he starts going into the reality documentary, Below Deck. And I’m sitting there with hiking boots in my hand and I’m like, ‘Anything could be better than this.'”
Eddie Lucas became a constant on the series for three straight seasons
Producers moved fast and Lucas suddenly found himself on a superyacht hosting the first group of charter guests — photographers who ended up getting busted for having cocaine in their cabin.
“That was my first time ever being on a luxury yacht,” he remarked. “It was was totally new to me. I was completely green, but I wasn’t green to hard work.”
Lucas said he wasn’t chasing fame or trying to be on a reality television show. “I went in as a job,” he said. “It was a job. And I went in working as hard as I could. And trying to make my family, my friends, and myself proud. I think I accomplished that for a couple of seasons.”
“Eddie Lucas is just one of those guys who is so likable,” Stars Marketing Group CEO Gabriella Schwager told Showbiz Cheat Sheet. “He had so many fans when he was on a few years ago and it was nice to see how well received he was when he announced his return. Stars Marketing Group is beyond thrilled to add Eddie Lucas to our family!”
Below Deck Season 8 premiers on Monday, Nov. 2 at 9/8c on Bravo.

An agreement is a cooperation agreement between two or more parties, which describes the cooperation agreement on a project. Contractual guarantees are less important conditions and are not fundamental to the agreement. They cannot terminate a contract if the guarantees are not fulfilled, but they can claim damages for the losses incurred. A legal agreement takes place between two parties when the two parties have reached a mutual position and exchanged something valuable – the so-called “counterpart” – between them. Writing a contract can be intimidating. Contracts are serious legal documents, and many people are afraid of missing something important or misunderstood their contracts, so they remain unprotected. To make sure you`ve covered the basics of your contract, here are the essential things that a contract should contain: an agreement that details the terms of payment between two parties. Sections include payment amount, payment schedule, stakeholders and more. If you write your contract, the other party may have different conceptions of what the terms of the agreement should be. The contract of your webdesigner could stipulate, for example. B, that contract jurisdiction is in Travis County, Texas, where they live, and if the contract is to be tried, you should go to Texas to solve the problem. You could try to negotiate the provision of the contract, so that all disputes must be resolved in Dade County, Florida, where you live and work.
Whether you are a landlord/owner or owner/private tenant, use this sublease contract to put everything on paper, update the time, place and conditions. After you have established the first draft agreement, you can create a contract model in PandaDoc so that sending your contract model is quick and easy. Safe guarantees for debt using this streamlined model of guarantee agreements. Construction companies often use joint ventures to pool resources and pursue major projects. This joint venture agreement model can be completed in minutes and helps you and your partner reach a legally binding joint venture agreement. An agreement that includes the terms and details of an agreement between two parties. Text of an example contract that is easy to adapt and use. Other types of agreements protect confidential information or allow professionals and independent contractors to use a company`s intellectual property while ensuring that they cannot obtain a loan. This simple partnership contract model can be used by two individuals or companies to create a partnership or joint venture.

Section 3 is really for registration purposes to indicate payments to the outgoing contractor at the time of the agreement – although it may be more convenient to indicate an earlier date. It may also be useful to indicate any amount owed to the employer by the contractor at the time of the renovation and to indicate whether the outgoing holder or the incoming contractor is responsible for the payment. If you wish to transfer a commercial lease to another commercial tenant for the fixed term, Net Lawman proposes an agreement to transfer a lease. In the Blyth-Blyth case, the developer instructed one of the designers named Blyth-Blyth Limited to plan the construction work, and the design contract was reassigned to the contractor according to the original project. This contract was based on the fixed flat price, including the allocation of any errors in the project. Although the contractor made changes and incurred additional costs to meet the employer`s original requirements, the court refused to award additional costs to the contractor. The contractor submitted that under the innovation agreement, the term “employer” must be considered a contractor and that the design consultant is liable. However, the contractor was not entitled to claim additional costs of breaching the design advisor`s obligations to the employer prior to the renovation, as the contractor agreed to bear the costs of the design defects. The innovation process can create the feeling that designers have mixed allegiances and it can be difficult to determine where responsibility for design work is carried out before innovation.
If the contractor does not effectively assume the design team, as if he had been the employer from the beginning, it may be useful for the contractor to obtain guarantees from the designers for prior innovations. The customer may also demand guarantees from innovative designers (see Blyth – Blyth Ltd v Carillion Construction Ltd). Innovation agreements are adopted by construction industry employers to ensure the quality of the project by the initial project by a professional design office and to take into account the quality of the construction, giving design responsibility to a contractor who is a construction expert and who is aware of the practical problems that may arise during the actual construction. Suppose Michael buys a car from Peter, which owes him $5,000 in the sale price until Peter negotiates with the MoT.
A business license generally allows unlimited use of a product or system throughout the company, although some restrictions and restrictions may apply. A business license makes it useless to save software every time it is installed on a new device or used by a new person in the company. Sometimes an Enterprise password is set for program users. Maximizing the cost-effectiveness of software consumption is a delicate balance. Under-consumption can lead to unaccounted for consumption opportunities, while excessive consumption can lead to financial difficulties for businesses and suppliers can often use overruns to encourage businesses to make new purchases. With the promise of maxim value and an optimized purchase, the IT sector sees a significant increase in the spread of ELA. Traditional software stars still have their long-standing ELA offerings for large and medium-sized enterprises. More recently, however, we see that non-traditional software vendors are focusing on these specialized agreements as a simpler and more strategic way to deliver value to their customers. When establishing a business licensing agreement, certain pitfalls should be avoided. These pitfalls can devastate a software company.
First of all, the simple approach and only the provision of full access to a website or the unlimited use of a software program is not recommended. Some companies opt for this model, but it can be problematic. This approach limits your ability to be properly compensated for the use of your product. ELA are actually a pre-purchase of rights to all software that the company wants to use during this lifetime. As a result, the manufacturer is willing to give a discount on the price of this software compared to the traditional purchase price. Depending on the customer, the importance of the ELA and the total investment in technology, Ahead has achieved savings of up to 25-30% on these agreements compared to the normally discounted costs of software and maintenance. Since ELA is generally an unbudgeted event, manufacturers generally offer generous financing terms for the agreement. AES can also simplify customer operations by consolidating several purchase and support contracts and providing a single agreement with co-terminus with reduced overhead. Most software companies have a licensing model that allows them to design a business licensing agreement, transmitting their software to customers based on certain licensing metrics (users, devices, revenue, system, organization department, etc.). Licensing generally works effectively for small and medium-sized customers, but less so for large customers.
Enterprise agreements and their terms may vary depending on the needs of the customer and the software provider. Before designing or providing an agreement, you need to define what the terms mean for both large customers and the software company. Interested companies need an agreement that offers additional flexibility, low costs/predictable prices and simple management.
But if you are the recipient of the confidential information, you will probably want to insist on a certain amount of time when the agreement expires. Finally, after a number of years, most of the information becomes useless anyway and the cost of the policy confidentiality obligation can be costly if it is an “forever” obligation. In the NDA`s standard agreement, the “revealing party” is the person who reveals secrets and the “receiving party” is the person or company that receives the confidential information and is required to keep it secret. The conditions are activated to indicate that they are defined in the agreement. The model agreement is a “unite” agreement (or in a legal agreement, “unilateral”), that is, only one party reveals secrets. A common NOA (also known as bilateral NOA) transmits confidential information in both directions. In this agreement, both parties act as parties to the publication and reception. We recommend that you search as long as possible, preferably without limit. But you recognize that some companies want a fixed period and some courts, if the NDAs interpret, require that the period is appropriate. Determining adequacy is subjective and depends on the confidential material and the nature of the industry. For example, some trade secrets may be short-lived within the software or internet industry.
Other trade secrets. For example, the Coca-Cola formula has been kept a secret for more than a century. For example, if others are likely to stumble on the same secret or innovation or cancel within a few years, you are unlikely to be damaged by a two- or three-year period. Remember that once the period is over, the revealing part is free to reveal your secrets. In the process of negotiating and drafting the contract, you and the other party can make oral or written statements. Some of these statements manage to enter into the final agreement. Others don`t. The integration rule verifies that the version you signed is the final version and that none of you can rely on instructions that have been made in the past. That`s right! In the absence of an integration rule, it is possible that each party may assert rights on the basis of promises made prior to the signing of the agreement. Here is an example of how to launch an NDA and base the parties to the agreement. Note that the NDA example clause also indicates which transaction or relationship relates to the NDA: These are just a few examples of the types of information you want to keep confidential under the protection of your NDA.
Your agreement may list as much or little confidential information as necessary, but you need to know exactly what information the receiving party cannot disclose.
This confidentiality agreement falls within the jurisdiction of [Owner.State] and, furthermore, all legal proceedings that take place under this agreement are conducted as such. Another approach to identifying trade secrets is to declare that the unveiling party will certify what is confidential and what is not. For example, physical data such as written material or software are clearly identified as “confidential.” In the case of oral information, the publication part indicates in writing that a trade secret has been disclosed. This is an appropriate provision that was taken from the NOA sample in the previous section. All communications relating to this confidentiality agreement are made in person, by mail or by authenticated letter to the addresses listed below. In the NDA`s standard agreement, the “revealing party” is the person who reveals secrets and the “receiving party” is the person or company that receives the confidential information and is required to keep it secret. The conditions are activated to indicate that they are defined in the agreement. The model agreement is a “unite” agreement (or in a legal agreement, “unilateral”), that is, only one party reveals secrets. The heart of a confidentiality agreement is a statement that establishes a confidential relationship between the parties.
The declaration establishes an obligation for the receiving party to keep the information confidential and restrict its use. This obligation is often defined by a sentence: “The receiving party holds and maintains the confidential information of the other party in a situation of strict trust, to the exclusive and exclusive benefit of the revealing party.” In other cases, the provision may be more detailed and include disclosure obligations. A detailed provision is shown below. PandaTip: This section of the NDA model gives you the right to claim damages in the event of a violation of this Agreement. Beta NDA Tester Software – When you develop software (including web applications) and assign beta versions to external testers, you`ll find a privacy agreement here that you can use. All privacy agreement templates provided above are empty, filled in and downloadable for free. They contain all the clauses and languages necessary to keep your confidential information secret. However, it is easier to create a confidentiality agreement in minutes with our free legal document builder. You cannot prohibit the receiving party from disclosing information that is known to the public, that was legally acquired from another source or developed by the receiving party before they meet you. Similarly, it is not illegal for the receiving party to reveal your secret with your permission.
These legal exceptions exist with or without agreement, but they are usually contained in a contract in order to make everyone understand that this information is not considered a trade secret. You can also insist on the return of all trade secrets that you provide as part of the agreement. In this case, add the following language to the receiving party`s obligations. PandaTip: You and your lender or subcontractor must sign this model with the following fields. The contracting parties undertake to waive the sale, transfer or delegation of the provisions of this agreement to third parties without the prior written consent of the responding party. The agreement should begin with a clear approach to the parties to the contract. The parties may be companies, organizations, companies, individuals or a mixture of one of them. If one of the parties is excluded, the treaty requirements cannot apply.
A series of campus shuttles carrying biodiesel and used vegetable oil revolve around the campus on six different routes.  The Utah Transit Authority (UTA) uses several buses through the university`s territory and the TRAX Red Line (urban train) that serves southern Jordan. Drivers can travel downtown, FrontRunner (S-Bahn), West Valley, Salt Lake City International Airport or Draper Via Trax Green or Blue Linien. Students and staff can use their university credentials to drive UTA, TRAX and FrontRunner buses.  The university`s track and field teams, the Utes, participate in the NCAA Division I Athletics (FBS for Football) as members of the Pac-12 conference. His football team received national attention to win the 2005 Fiesta Bowl and the 2009 Sugar Bowl.  In March 2012, the university won unanimous approval from the Board of Directors for the creation of a new university, the School of Dentistry, which is the university`s first new university in sixty years.  The new school received funding for a new structure and was launched as a debt-free program.  The new school enrolled its first students for the fall 2013 semester and has on average the same cost as the university`s medical education.
 In 2015, the university helped open the Ensign College of Public Health in Kpong, Ghana.  Ms. Arbogast is a professor at Weber State University in specialized pedagogy, a visiting professor at the University of Utah, and a frequently requested lecturer on legal issues related to students with disabilities at the national and state level. The University`s Turkish Studies Program, funded by the Turkish Coalition of America and led by Mr. Hakan Yavuz, has been criticized for promoting the denial of the Armenian genocide.    Professor Keith David Watenpaugh accuses the program of “promoting the falsification of history through its scholarships and political representation… The University of Utah has made an institutional homeland available to the denial of genocide.  Nearly 50% of newcomers live on campus, but most students choose to live elsewhere after the first year, with 13% of students living on campus.  The university is located in a large metropolitan area, but many students live in the neighborhoods that directly surround the university.
An additional 1,115 family apartments are available for students, staff and teachers. One of the University`s four main goals for long-term campus growth is to increase student engagement by adding campus housing, intramural areas, sports centres and a new student activity centre.  The university hosts the Neal A.
It should be noted that a larger deposit of your own funds and not a gifted deposit will also benefit you, as subcontractors consider this as the borrower who is more invested in the property. So if you have been denied a mortgage, you should consider filing a larger deposit. First-time buyers, buy-to-it mortgages are a unique mortgage offer and often come up with certain specific criteria that first-time buyers must meet in order to obtain approval. This is largely the recent crackdown on buyers taking buy-to-let (BTL) mortgages on a property they want to live in if they cannot afford to buy their own home. If you`re having trouble getting feedback from the lender, don`t worry. The specialists we work with can often tell you why your mortgage was rejected in principle as a result of an application, without even talking to lenders. They can even get a full credit check for free, and that won`t affect their creditworthiness. Fortunately, every lender has a different policy regarding what is acceptable and what is not, and many specialize in certain areas, so just because a lender has refused you before does not mean that there is no lender for you. There may be a variety of reasons why you did not meet your minimum credit criteria to get a mortgage in principle that may be acceptable with other lenders, for example: if your mortgage is refused during the insurance phase, if you already have an agreement in principle, it can be frustrating. Sometimes the underwriter finds a problem with your app that is causing concern. Sometimes this can be solved with the help of your broker, who can talk and work with the underwriter to get things back on track.
To confuse matters, mortgage lenders refer to the initial mortgage decision-making procedure, either by the term “agreement in principle (AIP)” or “decision in principle” (DIP). In principle, a mortgage agreement is followed by a full mortgage application and the information provided in the original decision is accompanied by referrals. It is therefore important that the facts made available to the mortgage lender be correct for the first time, as the erroneous information of their insurers is reprehensible and may lead to rejecting your case or changing the terms they are willing to offer. If you have already approved an agreement in principle with a lender, but if your full mortgage application was rejected during the insurance phase, it is likely that the lender`s UK insurers were not satisfied with both: if you look at your credit history, lenders will in most cases see six years of payment history, including whether the payments were made in full. , on time or even. What mortgage lenders do not want is a recently opened form of credit, whether it is a new credit card, a loan or a financing contract. It is important to determine why your mortgage has not been approved and at what stage. This will give us an idea of what went wrong and why. Most importantly, it provides us with information that we can use to get your mortgage back on track. For example, they were rejected in the initial phase of an agreement in principle. On the other hand, you may have turned down a mortgage offer because of the property itself. The objective of an agreement in principle is to give the mortgage lender a timely guarantee of its loan will.
It is a matter of establishing hard facts about the applicant`s personal circumstances. Mortgages are rarely refused, especially because the applicant is a first-time buyer. A refusal in these circumstances is usually related to something other than the lender is not happy, such as bad loans or accessibility. Refusing a mortgage at the acquisition stage can be extremely frustrating.
In addition to improving the social security of working workers, international social security agreements help ensure continuity of benefit protection for people who have received social security credits under the U.S. system and another country. The detached house rule may apply if the U.S. employer transfers a worker to work at a foreign branch or in one of its foreign subsidiaries. However, in order for U.S. coverage to continue when a transferred employee works for a foreign subsidiary, the U.S. employer must have entered into a Section 3121 (l) agreement with the U.S. Treasury Department with respect to the foreign subsidiary. The agreements allow sSA to add U.S. and foreign coverage credits only if the worker has at least six-quarters of U.S. coverage.
Similarly, a person may need a minimum amount of coverage under the foreign system to have U.S. coverage accounted for in order to meet the conditions for granting foreign benefits. As a precautionary measure, it should be noted that the derogation is relatively rare and is invoked only in mandatory cases. There are no plans to give workers or employers the freedom to regularly choose coverage that contradicts normal contractual rules. Applications should include the name and address of the employer in the United States and the other country, the full name, place and date of birth of the worker, nationality, U.S. and foreign Social Security numbers, location and date of employment, and the start and end date of the assignment abroad. (If the employee works for a foreign subsidiary of the U.S. company, the application should also indicate whether U.S. Social Security Insurance has been agreed upon for employees of the related company pursuant to Section 3121 (l) of the internal income code.) Self-employed workers should indicate their country of residence and the nature of their self-employment.
When applying for certificates as part of the agreement with France, the employer (or non-employee) must also certify that the worker and all accompanying family members are covered by health insurance. The competent authorities and agencies of the parties assist each other in the implementation of this agreement, within the framework of their respective authorities. This assistance is free of charge, subject to any waiver agreed in an administrative agreement. This agreement may be amended in the future by complementary agreements which, as soon as they come into force, will be considered an integral part of this agreement. International social security agreements are beneficial for both those who work today and those whose careers are over. For current workers, the agreements eliminate the double contributions they might otherwise make to social security plans in the United States and another country. For people who have worked in the United States and abroad and are now retired, disabled or deceased, agreements often result in the payment of benefits to which the worker or family members would not otherwise be entitled. Totalization agreements only apply to self-employed workers and people who are deployed by their employers to work in another country.
As we grow up, we will reach agreements between ourselves and ourselves. An agreement is to share certain symbols on which we can communicate, such as language, as we learned in the last summary of the book. You can only understand what you are reading or hearing now because you agree with the writer on the meaning of words. So if the majority of what you perceive about yourself is a relative truth created by symbolism, how do you know who you really are? Following the five chords. If you do your best, you will see that the first three chords will manifest much more easily in your life. Moreover, the different religions, philosophies and mentalities create our knowledge and are born of agreements that we conclude with our fellow human beings on common symbolism. If you commit to the five chords: be impeccable with the word; Don`t take anything personally Don`t make assumptions Always do your best and be skeptical, but learn to listen, you will be able to discover who you really are and lead a simpler, happier life. Imagine all the skills you`ve learned in your life. No matter if you talk, read or ride a bike, you would be unaware of these things if you hadn`t done them frequently. Therefore, repeated practice is essential if you want to integrate all three chords into your life. The four chords have been printed and pinned to my fridge for years. Words are relevant and wise and help me live with less stress and grief. It delves deeply into the difficulties that many of us experience in our daily lives.
This is one of those “need to read”! I love the way small businesses lead you to something you might need. I hope you enjoy my summary of the agreements. You may be buying it on your next trip to bookstores. For those who have it, it may be a little help to reopen it. The first three chords will cause positive changes in your life, but it won`t be possible to master them if you don`t practice them as best you can. In this summary, you learn to regain your normal human tendencies by engaging in the five simple chords that should guide your daily life. You`ve learned three chords: be flawless with words, don`t take anything personally and don`t make assumptions. But how can you integrate them into your life? By dedicating yourself to the fourth convention: always do your best. Sometimes it`s too painful because we`ve gained the grief we`ve gained along the way. Yet we can`t run away from agreements. First of all, it takes time, determination and above all discipline to free yourself. As our broader knowledge is based on a common symbology, it can be understood as a relative truth.
When we perceive our environment and our environment, this world becomes our truth. And through the symbology that is transmitted to us, we form whole belief systems on these objects and people that become our knowledge. But even this is a choice, no one can exploit you if you don`t build such a hostile relationship with yourself. “The Fifth Agreement” talks about control to avoid gossip and not comment on the ignorance or prejudice of others. In other words, don`t take life too personally! Practice is the only way, but it requires patience, so don`t get angry if you don`t try to subdue everyone right away at the same time. For example, we could learn that we should go to church every Sunday to be a good Christian, or we should be thin, intelligent and beautiful to live a happy life.

Amun-Re was the last Pharaoh of the land of Bakar in the Raurin around the 4th century DR. He had commissioned a theft-proof tomb, the Pyramid of Amun-Re. He called on Osiris to curse the river Athis out of existence upon his death; though the god felt bound to carry out his bidding, he also cursed the Pharaoh not to enter heaven until his tomb was plundered.
Per the Book of Amun-Re, the Pharaoh believed tomb accoutrements were necessary to make it possible to complete his trip to the afterlife. He often had nightmares as a boy that, were his tomb to be plundered, his funerary arrangements would not be sufficient to satisfy Osiris' judgement. After personally examining the damage to his beloved father's plundered tomb, he became traumatized, weeping tears of fury.
This led him to make war on his neighbors and heavily tax his own people in order to finance the construction. During a riot in the capital, the Pharaoh called down a curse to threaten the rioting mob. In the name of his ruling staff, Osiris, and the Star of Mo-Pelar, were his heart to stop, then so would the spring of Athis.
A spear came from the mob, striking the Pharaoh dead. Osiris was required to fulfill the Pharaoh's curse, as it had been called in his name, but he did not accept his soul in the afterlife, for Amun-Re's monument was supposed to be his people, not his tomb. He would not be able to enter his tomb and pass on until a mortal soul had taken away the implements by which he had called down this curse.
After his death, Amun-Re was considered the greatest of the gods in heaven westward, for he manifested his own power in his own temple: per the Tale of the Years of his priests, sacrifices of gold and food were made daily into the temple, and all that was placed in the Eastern temple disappeared, presumably claimed by Amun-Re.
By the mid-14th century DR, Amun-Re was an apparition in the area once covering the Kingdom of Bakar. He'd approach travelers every night, requesting that men of valor plunder the Ruling Staff and the Star of Mo-Pelar out of his tomb, so that he may pass on to the afterlife. The odds of being approached by the pharaoh were slim, but they were increasingly cumulative for as long as one remained in the area. Once one had been visited by the pharaoh, the apparition would repeat every night until they left Bakar. If they were within sight of the pyramid, the apparition would raise its arm to point that way.
The wizard Martek had given Amun-Re the Star of Mo-Pelar.

Judicial Watch: Federal Court Hearing on Official DHS Emails in Private, Unsecure Email Accounts of Former Secretary Johnson and Other Top Officials
Hearing set for Friday, February 17
(Washington, DC) — Judicial Watch today announced a hearing will be held on Friday, February 17, 2017, regarding Judicial Watch’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit seeking emails “relating to official United States Government business sent to or from” Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson and three other top Homeland Security officials that used “non-‘.gov’” email addresses (Judicial Watch, Inc., v. United States Department of Homeland Security (No. l:l6-cv-00967)).
The hearing will focus on whether the Department of Homeland Security has made any efforts to recover the official government emails still residing in the private email accounts of former Secretary Johnson and other officials.
The hearing was ordered subsequent to a May 23, 2016, FOIA lawsuit filed by Judicial Watch after Homeland Security failed to respond to a December 29, 2015, FOIA request.
The court hearing is scheduled for Friday afternoon:
Date: Friday, February 17, 2017
Time: 2 p.m. ET
Location: Courtroom 21
U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia
333 Constitution Ave NW
Washington, DC 20001
Judicial Watch already has obtained 215 pages of documents containing official emails sent through the private, unsecure email accounts of Johnson and three other top Homeland Security officials. The documents include emails discussing high-level meetings Johnson was to have with the Kuwaiti ambassador and Saudi Arabian Interior Ministry officials, as well as a West African $4.5 million online consumer fraud scam.
Prior to the Obama administration’s leaving office, Judge Moss ordered the Department of Homeland Security to preserve email records sought by Judicial Watch “to minimize the risk of an inadvertent loss of potentially responsive emails.” In petitioning the court for the preservation order, Judicial Watch argued:
A court order requiring preservation of these emails is particularly necessary now as DHS has suggested that these officials may have been acting without authorization by sending emails from these accounts … As such, there is no assurance that these officials will abide by a “request” by the agency to preserve these emails, particularly after their employment ends. …
Judicial Watch previously uncovered documents revealing that Secretary Jeh Johnson and 28 other agency officials used government computers to access personal web-based email accounts despite an agency-wide ban due to heightened security concerns. The documents also reveal that Homeland Security officials misled Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA) when Perry specifically asked whether personal accounts were being used for official government business.
