Help is on the way for Canadian businesses slammed by the COVID-19 virus pandemic.
The federal government on Wednesday announced $82 billion worth of aid and stimulus. But accountants with small businesses and non-profits may be wondering just how the programs will work and how to tap into them.
Kin Lo, accounting professor at the Sauder School of Business at the University of BC, said the two key programs for small and medium-sized businesses are a tax deferral program and a wage top-up for employees.
"The tax deferral part is extremely important, just in terms of liquidity," Lo said. "Many of these businesses are temporarily closed, and so they're not earning any money. So being able to retain whatever precious cash they have and not have to pay that to the government, I think that's a fairly important measure."
Businesses typically pay corporate income taxes quarterly. If a business has a tax payment due in April, they can now defer it until the end of August. The move will keep $55 billion in the hands of business in Canada for the next five months.
“What they’re saying is, ‘everybody is going to owe that much in taxes to the government," said Tara Benham, national tax leader for Grant Thornton. "'We’re going to defer that and leave it within the economy.’”
For employers struggling to keep employees on their payrolls, they will get help in the form of a wage top-up, which covers 10% of an employee’s wages, and is intended to help business retain employees throughout a period when business revenues are dropping.
It covers up to $1,375 per employee, and $25,000 per employer and applies to businesses and non-profits.
But the federal government isn’t cutting cheques. Rather, it is telling business to just keep the money it would normally be sending to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) through employee income tax remittances.
Employers estimate how much income tax each employee should pay, takes it off their paycheques and remits it to the CRA every month or every two weeks. They can now hold back some of that money.
For example, if your employee’s salary is $2,000 for a two-week pay period, 10% of that is $200. If the income tax on that salary was $300, you would remit $100 and keep $200 back every month until it reaches $1,375 per employee.
For most business, their two key concerns is their employees and cash flow. If they have to lay employees off temporarily, the federal government has relaxed employment insurance to make it easier for laid off employees to apply for EI.
Employees who have to be laid off due to illness can file for sick benefits here.
Employees laid off due to business closures or cutbacks can apply for employment insurance benefits here.
The usual one-week waiting period to apply for EI has been waived so they can apply as soon as they are laid off.
To address cash flow crunches, the federal government is launching the business credit availability program worth $10 billion.
It's not clear yet how businesses will access that program.
"We're on getting details on that and what that looks like," Benham said.

text: FXStreet (Guatemala) - Philip Rush, analyst at Nomura explained that at noon on 5 November, the BoE will announce its latest monetary policy decision and publish both the minutes of the monthly meeting and the quarterly Inflation Report, consistent with the changes introduced a few months ago. Key Quotes: "Further falls in oil prices present disinflationary pressure in the near term, but unemployment’s resumed decline and wage pressures mean the medium-term outlook should be more buoyant. China might actually be beating its forecast." "The market’s focus on the downside news has caused a large dovish repricing that should add about 20bp to the BoE’s inflation forecasts over policy relevant horizons. This is the other side of inflation’s assumed elasticity to Bank rate appearing to have been doubled under Mark Carney’s tenure." "With the Fed’s first rate hike appearing closer, the MPC should be comfortable guiding the more cyclically advanced UK economy toward expecting earlier rate hikes. Whether the market sees such a message as living up to its pricing on the day is the bigger hurdle. Mark Carney’s reports usually drive dovish action."

Arizona might quickly be a part of a lengthening record of states pledging to achieve 100 % carbon-free energy by 2050, though a ultimate choice on its plan to get there received’t be made till after Tuesday’s election.
Thursday’s Three-2 vote by the Arizona Company Fee accepted a plan that’s been the topic of a months-long debate amongst regulators over one of the simplest ways to renovate the state’s renewable vitality mandates, which have been set at 15 % of technology by 2025 for greater than a decade.
The newly handed modifications will enhance these targets dramatically for investor-owned utilities Arizona Public Service and Tucson Electrical Energy, mandating a 50-percent lower in carbon emissions from 2016 to 2018 common ranges by 2032, and a 75-percent lower by 2040. By midcentury, these utilities might be required to section out all fossil-fueled technology.
“The local weather disaster is impacting Arizonans proper now,” ACC Commissioner Sandra Kennedy wrote in a ready assertion after the vote. Arizona skilled a record-setting heatwave this summer time, and it and different states throughout the Western U.S. are dealing with larger and extra devastating wildfires. “I’m glad the Fee was lastly capable of look previous partisan politics to help science and economics-based coverage that stakeholders, utilities and ratepayers might all agree upon and profit from.”
Arizona’s investor-owned utilities have already laid plans for decarbonization. Arizona Public Service promised in January to achieve zero-carbon vitality by 2050, with interim 2030 targets to exit its remaining coal-fired energy crops and attain 65 % clear electrical energy, together with 45 % renewable vitality and carbon-free energy from its Palo Verde nuclear energy plant.
Tucson Electrical Energy plans to shut its remaining coal crops by 2032 on its solution to reaching 70 % renewables by 2035, however has but to set a 100-percent carbon free mandate. Sprawling municipal utility Salt River Venture, which isn’t topic to the ACC’s laws, plans to lower emissions by 62 % by 2035 and 90 % by 2050.
New targets for distributed storage, long-term renewables planning
However the guidelines package deal accepted by the ACC additionally consists of numerous amendments that may affect the combo of assets utilities undertake to achieve their carbon discount targets. These embrace a mandate that 5 % of the state’s useful resource combine by 2035 encompass vitality storage programs, and that 40 % of that complete be customer-owned or leased.
Arizona is already constructing a whole lot of megawatts of batteries to retailer and form technology from gigawatts of latest utility-scale photo voltaic tasks. APS plans so as to add 962 megawatts of renewable vitality to its present 1,700 megawatts, in addition to 850 megawatts of vitality storage.
However Arizona utilities have additionally shifted rooftop photo voltaic compensation guidelines in ways in which cut back worth for standalone photo voltaic however improve them for battery-backed photo voltaic. Including a carveout for distributed photo voltaic might drive deployment of greater than 200 megawatts of customer-owned or leased vitality storage in the state by 2035, or about 40,000 dwelling battery storage programs, in response to the teams selling the modification, which included residential photo voltaic installer Sunrun, nonprofit advocacy teams Vote Photo voltaic and Photo voltaic United Neighbors and the Arizona Photo voltaic Vitality Industries Affiliation (AriSEIA) commerce group.
One other modification supported by The Sierra Membership would add new transparency and aggressive procurement necessities to the 15-year built-in useful resource plans that utilities undergo regulators. APS and TEP have submitted IRPs this 12 months that lay out a number of pathways to reaching their carbon discount targets involving main buildouts of renewable vitality, vitality storage, demand response and vitality effectivity.
Each additionally plan to retain or increase their use of pure gas-fired energy for the capability they might want to exchange closing coal crops and meet load development over the approaching decade, though not on the ranges contained in earlier IRPs rejected by regulators.
And an modification handed earlier in October will enhance the vitality effectivity targets for investor-owned utilities to equal 35 % of their 2020 vitality demand by 2030, up from a earlier goal of 22 % by 2030.
The package deal narrowly accepted in Thursday’s vote should nonetheless be compiled right into a ultimate rule by ACC employees which might be voted on at a future assembly. If the ultimate rule is handed by ACC commissioners — three of 5 of that are dealing with challengers for his or her seats in Tuesday’s election — it will likely be dropped at the Arizona Secretary of State for a proper rulemaking course of open to public remark.
If established as state coverage, the rule will add Arizona to an inventory of states together with Hawaii, California, New York, Maine, Virginia, New Mexico, Nevada and Washington state that have set insurance policies to achieve 100 % renewable vitality or lower carbon to zero by 2050. Connecticut, Colorado, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, Rhode Island and Wisconsin are within the midst of debating related mandates.

“The court’s mixed decision strikes a blow against one form of race-based preferences,” said Terry Pell, President of Center for Individual Rights (CIR). “It openly addressed the dirty little secret of this case: the use of segregated admissions tracks, bonus points, grids and other quota-like devices for college admissions. “
Critics of race-based preferences should take heart from the fact that the court struck down the point-system used by the University of Michigan’s undergraduate college,” he said. “The court, however, failed to strike down the law school’s policy of allowing a diversity officer to quietly make race the deciding factor in admissions. The court failed to recognize that the law school’s practice is, if anything, more egregious. “This makes today’s decision a tricky one for universities,” he said. “It heightens the risk for universities that want to continue to use racial preferences in college admissions. Although the court upheld the law school system, this too, will end up as cold comfort for Michigan and schools with similar practices. Anything they do will likely be a smokescreen for quotas-and that just puts us back in litigation.”
Pell, who heads the public interest law firm representing the three plaintiffs, said the top court’s decisions did not take into account the five states that are achieving minority enrollment without discrimination. “California, Florida, Georgia, Texas and Washington have kept minority enrollment above Michigan’s stated goal of at least ten percent,” Pell said. “They’ve managed to do this in most community colleges,flagship universities and professional schools without resorting to discrimination against applicants on the basis of race.”
Pell noted that today’s decision will end some of the university’s unlawful practices on behalf of African American, Hispanic and Native American applicants.
For undergraduate applicants in these preferred racial categories, the University of Michigan’s College of Literature, Science and the Arts added “bonus” points to their admissions index. “This is tantamount to adding a full-grade point,” Pell said, noting that this policy effectively discriminated against more accomplished students. “The Court upheld the law school’s practice of achieving the same effect in an informal, private way,” he said. “However, the complexity of today’s decisions make it risky for most schools to rely these means. Few schools can afford the risk that someday, a federal judge may find their standards amount to a quota system.
“Today’s mixed verdict is ultimately bad news for those who would uphold preferences,” Pell said. “It is just another in a long series of verdicts that are whittling away at the flawed logic of race-based preferences.”
In 1996, CIR won a landmark lawsuit, Hopwood v. Texas, that resulted in a ruling that overturned the system of racial preferences at the University of Texas Law School on the basis that it violated the equal protection clause of the U.S. Constitution. “CIR was a very lonely voice then,” Pell said. “We were the first to say what others were thinking-that it’s flagrantly wrong to judge people by race, and that universities were violating even the loose standards of Bakke. “We were confident that if people understood what these admissions officers were really doing, they would understand why it was unfair,” Pell said. “It’s evident that the American people agree. In 2001, a Washington Post poll showed that nearly 9 out of 10 Americans from all racial groups had come to believe that race shouldn’t be a factor in college admissions or employment.
“Today’s mixed verdict is the beginning of the end of race preferences.”

Rating – 0/5
With this as the opening blurb:
Spoken word artist. Playwright. Author. Stand-up comic. BELOWSKY has been many things throughout his rich and varied career.
However, in something of a first for the Mancunian-born star, he is teaming up with ALAN McGEE to release a new single on the Creation 23 label: ‘2020 Ball Drop’.
I couldn’t help but feel a rising trepidation at what was about to unfold.
Hmmmm. I’ll start by dredging up that old chestnut “jack of all trades, master of none” and follow it up by saying how genuinely rare it is to find a true polymath. Not just in this day and age but in the whole of human history. Therefore it is less of a surprising conclusion that we haven’t found one here.
I imagined I’d write this review saying that if they had cut out the music and left the no doubt pithy observations of this annus horribilis to stand on their own it would have been a much more successful venture.
I’d have only been partially correct.
Yes, leave out the music. It’s dire. It sounds like the background music from a scrolling shoot em up game from the late 80s. The vocal effects render the words largely unintelligible and absolutely irritating as fuck to listen to.
But the words are largely irrelevant too. There has been much discourse about the whys and wherefores of the wonder of a year that was 2020. Some of the finest literary minds still alive have penned riveting and insightful discourse concerning the last 12 months and to be honest, this is not among that rarified group.
If I confess I stopped listening at around the 2 minute 30 mark then you can blame me for not giving it a true chance and hearing it to it’s potentially life affirming conclusion.
Try it for yourself. You may just give me a medal for making it that far.
Avoid at all costs. Like everything else left to us by 2020. Oh, and just in case, wash your hands.

Clubcoin 7 Dec – Blockchain: Secure Online Purchasing for Everyone
We would like to thank you for coming to Ethereum in looking for “Clubcoin 7 Dec” online. Bitcoin is the principal cryptocurrency of the internet: a digital money standard by which all other coins are compared to. Cryptocurrencies are distributed, international, and decentralized. Unlike conventional fiat currencies, there is no authorities, banks, or another regulatory agencies. As such, it truly is more immune to outrageous inflation and corrupt banks. The benefits of using cryptocurrencies as your method of transacting cash online outweigh the protection and privacy threats. Security and seclusion can easily be achieved by just being clever, and following some basic guidelines. You wouldn’t place your entire bank ledger online for the word to see, but my nature, your cryptocurrency ledger is publicized. This can be fixed by removing any identity of possession in the wallets and thereby keeping you anonymous. Since one of the oldest forms of earning money is in cash financing, it’s a fact which you can do this with cryptocurrency. Most of the giving sites currently focus on Bitcoin, Some of these sites you might be needed fill in a captcha after a certain time frame and are rewarded with a small amount of coins for seeing them. It is possible to visit the www.cryptofunds.co web site to find some lists of of these sites to tap into the currency of your choice. Unlike forex, stocks and options, etc., altcoin markets have quite different dynamics. New ones are constantly popping up which means they don’t have lots of market data and historical view for you to backtest against. Most altcoins have somewhat inferior liquidity as well and it is hard to produce a reasonable investment strategy. Anyone can become a Bitcoin miner running software with specialized hardware. Mining software listen for broadcast trades on the peer-to-peer network and perform the appropriate tasks to process and affirm these trades. Bitcoin miners do this because they are able to bring in transaction fees paid by users for faster transaction processing, and new bitcoins in existence are under denominated formulas.
Clubcoin 7 Dec – The New World Order, Maybe – BITCOIN
Mining cryptocurrencies is how new coins are put into circulation. Because there is no government control and crypto coins are digital, they cannot be printed or minted to produce more. The mining process is what creates more of the coin. It may be useful to think of the mining as joining a lottery group, the pros and cons are just the same. Mining crypto coins means you will get to keep the full benefits of your efforts, but this reduces your chances of being successful. Instead, joining a pool means that, overall, members are going to have much greater chance of solving a block, but the reward will be divided between all members of the pool, predicated on the amount of “shares” won.
If you are thinking of going it alone, it is worth noting that the applications configuration for solo mining can be more complex than with a pool, and beginners would be probably better take the latter course. This option also creates a secure stream of earnings, even if each payment is modest compared to completely block the reward. Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, LiteCoin, Ether, YOCoin, and many others happen to be designed as a non-fiat currency. Quite simply, its backers argue that there is “real” worth, even through there is no physical representation of that worth. The worth climbs due to computing power, that’s, is the only way to create new coins distributed by allocating CPU electricity via computer programs called miners. Miners create a block after a time period that’s worth an ever diminishing amount of money or some sort of wages in order to ensure the shortage. Each coin contains many smaller components. For Bitcoin, each unit is called a satoshi. Operations that take place during mining are exactly to authenticate other trades, such that both creates and authenticates itself, a simple and elegant alternative, which will be one of the appealing aspects of the coin. The one who has mined the coin holds the address, and transfers it into a value is supplied by another address, which is a “wallet” file stored on a computer. The blockchain is where the public record of transactions lives.
The fact that there is little evidence of any growth in the utilization of virtual money as a currency may be the reason why there are minimal efforts to control it. The reason behind this could be just that the market is too little for cryptocurrencies to warrant any regulatory attempt. It is also possible that the regulators just don’t understand the technology and its consequences, awaiting any developments to act. In the event of a fully functioning cryptocurrency, it could actually be traded like a product. Supporters of cryptocurrencies proclaim that this kind of online income isn’t managed by way of a main bank system and is not thus susceptible to the whims of its inflation. Because there are a minimal amount of products, this moneyis value is based on market forces, permitting owners to deal over cryptocurrency trades. When searching online forClubcoin 7 Dec, there are many things to ponder.

Despite the criticism and skepticism, a cryptocurrency coin may be better suited for some uses than others. Fiscal solitude, for instance, is excellent for political activists, but more problematic as it pertains to political campaign financing. We need a steady cryptocurrency for use in trade; should you be living paycheck to paycheck, it would happen included in your wealth, with the rest allowed for other currencies. For most users of cryptocurrencies it isn’t crucial to comprehend how the procedure functions in and of itself, but it’s simply vital that you comprehend that there’s a process of mining to create virtual currency. Unlike currencies as we understand them now where Authorities and banks can just choose to print endless quantities (I am not saying they are doing so, just one point), cryptocurrencies to be managed by users using a mining software, which solves the sophisticated algorithms to release blocks of currencies that can enter into circulation. Ethereum is an unbelievable cryptocurrency platform, yet, if growth is too fast, there may be some problems. If the platform is adopted fast, Ethereum requests could rise dramatically, and at a rate that exceeds the rate with which the miners can create new coins. Under a situation like this, the whole platform of Ethereum could become destabilized because of the increasing costs of running distributed programs. In turn, this could dampen interest Ethereum platform and ether. Uncertainty of demand for ether may result in a negative change in the economical parameters of an Ethereum based company that may lead to company being unable to continue to operate or to discontinue operation. The physical Internet backbone that carries information between different nodes of the network has become the work of several firms called Internet service providers (ISPs), including firms offering long distance pipelines, sometimes at the international level, regional local pipe, which ultimately joins in households and businesses. The physical connection to the Internet can only happen through any of these ISPs, players like level 3, Cogent, and IBM AT&T. Each ISP manages its own network. Internet service providers Exchange IXPs, owned or private businesses, and sometimes by Authorities, make for each of these networks to be interconnected or to move messages across the network. Many ISPs have agreements with providers of physical Internet backbone providers to offer Internet service over their networks for “last mile”-consumers and companies who want to get Internet connectivity. Internet protocols, followed by everyone in the network makes it possible for the info to flow without interruption, in the correct area at the right time.
While none of these organizations “possesses” the Internet together these businesses determine how it functions, and recognized rules and standards that everyone stays. Contracts and legal framework that underlies all that’s occurring to determine how things work and what happens if something bad happens. To get a domain name, for example, one needs permission from a Registrar, which has a contract with ICANN. To connect to the Internet, your ISP must be physical contracts with providers of Internet backbone services, and suppliers have contracts with IXPs from the Internet backbone to connect to and with her. Concern over security dilemmas? A working group is formed to focus on the issue and the alternative developed and deployed is in the interest of all parties. If the Internet is down, you might have someone to phone to get it fixed. If the problem is from your ISP, they in turn have contracts set up and service level agreements, which regulate the way in which these problems are worked out.
The benefit of cryptocurrency is that it uses blockchain technology. The network of nodes the make up the blockchain isn’t governed by any focused firm. No one can tell the miners to upgrade, speed up, slow down, stop or do anything. And that’s something that as a committed promoter badge of honor, and is identical to the way the Internet operates. But as you comprehend now, public Internet governance, normalities and rules that regulate how it works present inherent difficulties to an individual. Blockchain technology has none of that. You’ve probably noticed this often times where you often spread the great word about crypto. “It is not unstable? What happens if the price crashes? ” sofar, many POS devices offers free transformation of fiat, improving some problem, but before the volatility cryptocurrencies is resolved, most people will soon be resistant to put up any. We have to find a way to combat the volatility that is inherent in cryptocurrencies. If you are in search of Clubcoin 7 Dec, look no further than Crypto-Currency.

Menstrual cramps are the pain and cramping some women experience during their monthly periods.
About half the women of childbearing age have menstrual cramps. Between one quarter and one third of women have dysmenorrhea.
There are two kinds of dysmenorrhea: primary, which means there is no physical cause for it other than hormonessecondary, which means it stems from another health problem in a woman's body
Menstrual pain is linked to a chemicals called prostaglandins. Prostaglandins stimulate uterine and tubal contractions. Women with dysmenorrhea have prostaglandin levels that are 5 to 13 times higher than normal.
Menstrual pain usually does not become severe until late in the teen years. Symptoms can begin on the first day of a period. These can include: diarrheaheadacheheavy menstrual flowlower abdominal tendernessnausea and vomitingpelvic cramping
Experts do not know what triggers high prostaglandin levels.
Secondary dysmenorrhea is caused by other disorders, such as: adenomyosis, or growth of the lining of the uterus into the muscles of the uterusendometriosis, a condition in which tissue from the lining of the uterus appears in other parts of the body such as the ovaries, bladder and lining of the abdomen called the peritoneumfibroids, or benign growths in the uterusa narrow cervix, or uterine openingovarian cystspelvic adhesions, or scar tissue, from past abdominal surgerypelvic inflammatory disease (PID)premenstrual syndrome (PMS)a uterus that is retroverted, or tipped backward
Here are some factors that increase a woman's risk for menstrual cramps: an intrauterine device, or IUDlack of exercisepsychological and emotional factors, especially in teensstress
Menstrual cramping is not always preventable. However, some women may find these interventions helpful: a balanced diet, low in animal fats, dairy products and eggs, while high in raw seeds and nuts (which may increase the production on beneficial prostaglandins)moderate exerciseoral contraceptivesstress management techniquesdietary supplementation with vitamin B1 (thiamine) may be effective when used for at least 90 daysdietary supplementation with fish oil (alone or in combination with vitamin B12) may be effective when used for at least two months. taking NSAID medications before and during the menstrual cycle
There is no evidence that condoms prevent dysmenorrhea.
Diagnosis of menstrual cramps begins with a medical history and physical exam, including a pelvic exam. Tests to rule out physical causes may include: blood testscultures to check for sexually transmitted diseasean ultrasound of the vagina and uteruslaparoscopy, a procedure in which a small lighted tube is inserted into the abdomen, is rarely needed
If physical causes are found, secondary dysmenorrhea is diagnosed. Primary dysmenorrhea is diagnosed by ruling out possible physical causes.
Mild menstrual cramps and primary dysmenorrhea have no known long-term effects. The cause of secondary dysmenorrhea determines its long-term effects. These may include: chronic pelvic paindyspareunia, or painful sexual intercourseinfertility
Menstrual cramps are not contagious and pose no risk to others. However, if the problem is due to an undiagnosed STD, the woman may spread this to her partner.
Treatment depends on the severity and cause of the pain. Measures that may be helpful in relieving menstrual cramping include: a heating pad applied to the lower abdomenmoderate exerciserelaxation therapy
Other therapies that man be helpful include: a balanced diet, low in animal fats, dairy products and eggs, while high in raw seeds and nuts (which may increase the production on beneficial prostaglandins)a low-fat, vegetarian diet has been shown to significantly decrease paindietary supplementation with vitamin B1 (thiamine) may be effective when used for at least 90 daysdietary supplementation with fish oil (alone or in combination with vitamin B12) may be effective when used for at least two months. preliminary clinical research shows that vitamin E supplementation may decrease pain.
Mild cramps can be treated with pain medicines, such as aspirin or acetaminophen (i.e., Tylenol). Some over-the-counter products combine one of these medicines with a diuretic, or water pill.
For dysmenorrhea, healthcare providers often recommend medicines that lessen the production and effect of prostaglandins. These include nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen (i.e., Advil, Motrin, ketoprofen (i.e., Orudis), ketorolac (i.e., Toradol), fenoprofen, and naproxen (i.e., Aleve, Naprosyn).
It's best to take NSAIDs on a scheduled basis. They are started 1 to 2 days before the woman's period and menstrual cramps begin. They should be continued 1 to 2 days into the woman's period.
If over-the-counter medicines or prescription NSAIDs are ineffective, the provider may prescribe prescription NSAIDs, celecoxib (i.e., Celebrex, which is not FDA approved for this indication), mefenamic acid, or (i.e., Ponstel), tramadol (i.e., Ultram).
Sometimes, low-dose oral contraceptives are prescribed to prevent ovulation and prostaglandin production. Some healthcare providers use the calcium channel blocker nifedipine (i.e., Adalat, Procardia), in low doses, or transdermal nitroglycerine, although these are not FDA approved for dysmenorrhea.
In suitable candidates, progestin-containing IUDs may be considered. In addition, some women experience relief with Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulators (TENS) or acupuncture.
Endometrial ablation is an option for women with very painful periods or heavy menstrual flow. Dysmenorrhea is not an approved indication for endometrial ablation, although this procedure is approved for menorrhagia (excessive amount or duration of menstrual flow, at more or less regular intervals) or metrorrhagia (excessive amount or duration of menstrual flow, at irregular intervals).This procedure uses a heat-generating device to burn away the lining of the uterus.
If a woman has secondary dysmenorrhea, treatment may focus on the underlying disorder.
Leuprolide (i.e., Lupron), goserelin (i.e., Zoladex) or nafarelin (i.e., Synarel) are used to treat fibroids or endometriosis. Antibiotics will be used if PID is suspected. Surgery may be used to treat certain conditions.
Pain medicines and antibiotics may cause stomach upset inflammation of the colon or colitis or allergic reactions. Medicines used to treat endometriosis or fibroids may cause hot flashes or headaches. Surgery may cause bleeding, infection, or allergic reaction to anesthesia.
Menstrual cramps often improve after a woman has given birth to her first child.
Any new or worsening symptoms should be reported to the healthcare provider.

BATTLE CREEK, Mich. (April 17, 2014) — Michigan State Police are taking a close look at an arrest video involving a Battle Creek police officer from 2012. The outcome of the investigation may decide how officers in the city are trained in the use of force in the future.
Acting Police Chief Jim Blocker said after seeing the arrest video himself last month, he decided to hand the recording over to the Michigan State Police to investigate whether the officer went too far when he slammed the suspect to the ground.
According to sources close to the investigation. Officer Christopher Hug claims he was kicked by the suspect, Kenneth Moye, while confronting the suspect about pulling a woman out of a car by her hair. Hug responded by striking Moye the head and throwing him to the ground.
The actions were caught on a surveillance camera outside a convenience store in the city on October 2, 2012.
Moye would serve 221 days in jail after he pleaded no contest to assaulting an officer and resisting arrest.
While this happened years ago, the city just recently paid Moye not to sue the city. “Everyone knew but nobody knew how to take care of it,” saidCity Commissioner Jeff Domenico. “We settled with (Moye) a couple of weeks ago so now liability is no longer there.”
Domenico has made claims about police corruption for years.
“Rather than communicate it and further prove my point that we have a corrupt police department, I decided to continue to withhold that information, hoping that there would be an appropriate time that we could address this and not put the city at risk,” said Domenico.
As far as the settlement with Moye, Domenico said it was under $50,000. Any amount above that would have required a vote by city commission.
Officer Hug was investigated internally by the Battle Creek Police Department. He was cleared of any wrongdoing back in 2012. He currently remains on-duty. The chief said officer Hug is aware of the investigation by state police.
A source tells us Officer Hug is also in charge of teaching defense techniques to others within the department.
Chief Jim Blocker told FOX 17 he is reviewing policies and procedures in the use of force. He invited an expert to come speak to the department about that issue in May.
Domenico said these are issues that should have been dealt with years ago. He looks forward to the outcome of the MSP investigation. “We will see what they have to say in the weeks ahead,” he said.
The video from the store is only one angle the state police will take a look at, according to Chief Blocker. They are also reviewing the officer’s statements, the statements of other officers that arrived on scene, as well as any dash cam and audio from the arrest that may be available.

Gold headed lower yesterday, weighed down by a stronger dollar, and may re-test a seven-month low after a failed attempt to break higher in the previous session.
Spot gold was down 0.3 percent at $1,253.60 an ounce by 1030 GMT, after retreating from its highest since June 26 at $1,265.87 in the previous session.
US gold futures for August delivery were 0.4 percent lower at $1,254 an ounce.
“If this dollar strength continues, we could see another test of $1,240, the lows from last week and mid-December, a crucial technical level,” said Carsten Fritsch, commodity analyst at Commerzbank in Frankfurt.
Bullion has been in a downtrend since touching $1,365.23 on April 11, the strongest in nearly three months.
The dollar’s index against a basket of six major currencies was up 0.2 percent at 94.263 after dropping to its lowest since mid-June on Monday.
A stronger dollar makes greenback-denominated gold more expensive for holders of other currencies. Investors were also on the sidelines awaiting developments on the trade war between China and the United States, said Dick Poon, general manager, Heraeus Metals Hong Kong Ltd. –

Самолет NB-52A «Мячик-3» выполняет сброс гиперзвукового ракетоплана X-15 - полигон Роджерс Дрю Лейк в пустыне Мохаве в Калифорнии, 1959 г.
With the rocket powerplant yet to be ignited, the first X-15, 56-6670, is launched from the NB-52 mothership early in the test programme.
Макет палубы авианосца и катапульты в НИЦ авиации Великобритании в Бедфорде сыграли важную роль в программе Buccaneer. На снимке - первый S.Mk 2 во время испытаний, он вооружен блоками из 24 ракет (на вооружение не приняты).
During the summer of 1964 the Blackburn Buccaneer S.2 prototype XK526 was used extensively for “Minimum Launching Trials” at the Royal Aircraft Establishment at Bedford. Geoff Higgs, soon to become head of the A&AEE’s Naval Test Squadron, made a catapult take-off from the dummy deck at Bedford on August 25, 1964.

Geoff Higgs in the front seat of one of the three Buccaneer S.2s sent to the USA for trials aboard the USS Lexington in 1965. On October 4 that year Higgs and Lt-Cdr A. Taylor returned to the UK in S.2 XN974, flying from Goose Bay to Lossiemouth without refuelling to complete the first non-stop crossing of the Atlantic by an FAA aircraft.

With its two-chamber Curtiss-Wright XLR25 rocket motor ignited, X-2 46-674 leaves the Boeing B-50 mothership and F-86 chase aircraft behind at the beginning of one of its 13 powered flight between November 1955 and late September 1956.

Although the first sequentially of the two built, it was actually completed after 46-675, and was the example in which Kincheloe made his first flight in the type in May 1956, when he reached a comparatively sedate Mach 1-14 at 46,000ft (14,000m).

Three X-15s were built, the others being '671 and '672, the latter being the example in which John McKay (seen at LEFT with the aircraft) reached Mach 5-33 and an altitude of 295,600ft (90,100m) on September 28, 1965, with Geoff Higgs observing in an F-104B. nasax2
For some time before the end of the X-2 programme, plans had been in place for the development of an even more extraordinary aircraft for hypersonic and very-high-altitude research; the result being North American’s remarkable X-15, three examples of which were built. Seen here is the first, 56-6670, on the lakebed at Edwards.
The third North American X-15, 56-6672, streaks away from F-104B chase aircraft 57-1301 on September 28, 1965.
On its introduction into service in the summer of 1957, the Supermarine Scimitar became the largest, heaviest and most powerful fighter the Fleet Air Arm had acquired up to that time. Its twin Rolls-Royce Avon engines of some 10,000Ib-thrust each also made it the noisiest. Seen here is first production Scimitar F.1 XD212.

The Robert P. Patterson Jr. Mentoring Program at The Bronx Defenders is designed to serve young people in the South Bronx. We have an inaugural class of 11 mentees, ages 14 through 18. Through our holistic mentoring model, we aim to expand each young person’s support system while strengthening their positive social network through educational and emotional support, community engagement, and exposure to new and exciting experiences.
Our program was developed in close collaboration with young people from various backgrounds in the South Bronx, whom we call “Youth Ambassadors.” With the input and support of our Youth Ambassadors, we have carefully crafted a program tailored to the needs of the community, as determined by the community.
Our holistic mentoring model equips each young person with:
Our diverse group of mentors each receives several weeks of intensive training on practices critical to youth development, mentorship and diversity.
Offerings and activities include but are not limited to:
Here are the thoughts of one of the many families who have benefited from the full range of services offered by RPP:
“I know my daughter is very active in school, but she has been introverted in my house for as long as I can remember. I’ve noticed that since joining RPP though, she has gained so much more confidence and has become assertive in areas where she wasn’t before. For me, RPP makes space for people to belong, and the atmosphere is always warm and inviting. It’s not like other programs I’ve seen where things are forced and burdensome, and that’s one of the reasons I believe Emily loves it so much. My husband and I actually look forward to being there and are always made to feel welcome as parents in the parent engagement meetings.” – Rose Hostos, mother of mentee Emily Feliciano
“To me RPP is a place where youth like myself can come together and learn important life lessons and skills to empower ourselves and others. I have had the chance to be a part of something outside of school and meet and interact with people from my community and create new relationships. It has given me an opportunity to learn more about the career in law that I want to pursue in the future to interact with people in that field. It has also given me a chance to express how I feel, not only about the issues we face as a community but about the challenges I personally face in everyday life. I am thankful to be a part of the RPP program and everything it has done for me. ” – Mentee Emily Feliciano

Before you decide to breed your female, give careful consideration to the effort and expense, which goes into producing a litter of healthy and active puppies. It can be both time-consuming and expensive. If you own a purebred dam, you should also consider her overall conformation, disposition, and the qualities she will pass along to her puppies.
Another factor to consider is that many purebred puppies cannot be sold locally. This means advertising and the added cost and effort of finding the right sort of home in which to place them.
In contrast to popular belief, the female does not need to have a litter to be psychologically fulfilled. In fact, a spayed female makes an outstanding house pet.
Most breeders mate their female on her second or third season, at which time she is emotionally mature and able to adjust well to the role of a brood matron.
Once you decide to mate your female, take her to your veterinarian for a physical check-up to make sure that her vaginal orifice (opening) is normal in size. There should be no constricting ring which could prevent normal entry.
Her physical check-up should include a test for heartworms in areas where this is a problem. If you own a female of the larger breeds, ask your veterinarian to x-ray her pelvis. This should be done after one year of age. If the x-rays show bone changes of hip dysplasia, do not breed her. Certification by the OFA is highly recommended.
Also, before mating, the female should be checked for worms. Roundworms are difficult to avoid in puppies. Other parasites, if found, should be vigorously treated. A female with an active worm infestation is less likely to whelp healthy active puppies.
The Stud Dog
Unfortunately, not all great show dogs are outstanding producers. By the same token, some of the top producers have not been particularly outstanding in the ring.
If a stud dog has sired the type of dog you like, particularly if several females were used, you have strong evidence in favor of his potency. The number of champions produced is not always as meaningful as you might think. Usually, there is a lapse of several years before mating and a championship. Some of the top producers are often recognized well after they have stopped producing, but their offspring may retain their sire’s potency.
Some breeding kennels offer stud service. If you have an outstanding female from that bloodline, you may give serious thoughts to using a stud from that same strain to reinforce the best qualities in your female.
It is the responsibility of the breeder (who is the owner of the female) to come to a clear understanding with the owner of the stud dog concerning the breeding terms. Usually, a stud fee is paid at the time of the mating, or the stud’s owner may agree to take “pick of the litter”, which is a puppy of his own choosing. The age of the puppy should be agreed upon. If the female does not conceive, the stud’s owner may offer a return service at no extra charge. However, this is not obligatory in any way. Terms vary with the circumstances and policies of the kennel. If these are in writing, there will be no misunderstanding at a later date.
Before a dog is offered as a stud to the public, a brucellosis slide test should be made to establish that he is free from this disease. Brucellosis, once introduced into a kennel, can cause widespread sterility and the ruin of an outstanding breeding program.
A male may be used at stud after he is over one year of age. If an older dog is not a known producer, a sperm count is desirable. Before your dog is used at stud for the first time, check to be sure he has no problems that could interfere with successful mating. Some males have a long flexible forepart to the penis. If it bends backwards, it could make mating impossible. If this is the case, he will have to be bred by artificial insemination. A retained fold of skin (frenulum) may prevent protrusion of the penis. When present, it can be easily corrected. Red, pimple-like bumps or growths on the penis should receive veterinary attention. Other abnormalities include: stricture foreskin; an infection beneath the sheath (covering tissue); abnormal or undescended testicles; and a discharge from the urethra. If one of these is present, the dog should be treated by a veterinarian before mating.

Actually I live in a small village 13 km from Granada in the foothills of Sierra Nevada, with my family. After 5 years of Arts studies in Granada city we settled at this peaceful place.
I have been working as house restaurateur for years, renting out the products of this to tourists. We have had hundreds of guests throughout the last years and that is, how I came to appreciate contact with people of different cultures from all over the world.
I love to see when people feel well and happy, and the work of a tourist guide has given me many chances to experience this.
Our tours are thus not that much aiming to give you a big ammount of information (although we can bang your head with historical details if you wish to), but rather to make you experience a bit of that charming ambience that you can breathe in Andalusia.
If you have time, I would be glad to invite you to our beautiful house to have a tea or a coffee with sweets, so you might understand what made us decide to stay here so many years ago.
Let us know about your special wishes and we will do our best to make them come true and make you feel comfortable.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry — the Duke and Duchess of Sussex — announced to the world that their bundle of joy finally saw the light of day. The couple announced that their baby boy was born on May 6, coming in at 7lbs. 3oz. Nice job, guys!
Now, on the same day they presented the little dude to the public, we are finding out critical details like more importantly: HIS NAME!
The latest royal baby is named Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.
First, take a breath y’all.
Yes, it’s a damn long name, and we’re so here for it.
We take pride in our long names. It’s a cultural thing that many Latinos embrace.
We must admit, we were so curious to see how Meghan and Harry would name their child seeing that he has so much history on both sides.
This little baby has a lot to live up to. He’s got L.A. roots from his mother’s side and royalty on the other, so we think this combo of names is fitting. Don’t you?
Some people naturally thought the name is a tribute to actor KJ Apa who plays Archie on “Riverdale.”
We had no idea the royal couple were fans of the “Riverdale.” Though there could be other possibilities as to why they named him Archie.
The name Archie is also Prince George’s nickname, apparently.
We hope this baby name doesn’t cause too much family drama.
All we can say to Archie is, we get your struggle — and it’s going to be a long one.
Don’t worry, though, people will get over it in no time.
For the record, this is the longest Latino name ever.
Prince William was visiting the Albert Kennedy Trust to learn about the issue of LGBTQ youth homelessness when talked turned to his own children: George, Charlotte, and Louis.
Despite a complicated history with LGBTQ rights, the Royal offered up an answer to a pretty delicate question with a response that left many people shocked and overwhelmed with joy.
Prince William says it would be “absolutely fine by me” if any of his three children come out as gay.
The royal, who celebrated his 37th birthday last week, visited the Albert Kennedy Trust on Wednesday to learn about the issue of LGBTQ youth homelessness and what the organization is doing to alleviate the problem. During his chat with young people being supported by the charity, William was asked how he would react if Prince George, 5, Princess Charlotte, 4, or Prince Louis, 1, came to him one day to say they are gay.
“Do you know what, I’ve been giving that some thought recently because a couple of other parents said that to me as well,” William said. “I think, you really don’t start thinking about that until you are a parent, and I think — obviously absolutely fine by me.”
The Duke of Cambridge, as he’s also known, went on to say he would worry about the pressures his children may face if in the future they came out as gay or lesbian.
“I wish we lived in a world where it’s really normal and cool, but particularly for my family, and the position that we are in, that’s the bit I am nervous about,” he said.
He added: “How many barriers you know, hateful words, persecution, all that and discrimination that might come, that’s the bit that really troubles me. But that’s for all of us to try and help correct and make sure we can put that to the past and not come back to that sort of stuff.”
The possible future king was at the Albert Kennedy Trust to learn about issues facing LGBTQ youth.
LGBTQ youth across London – and the entire world for that matter – face hardships that non-LGBTQ youth can’t even imagine.
Homelessness among LGBTQ youth in London is seven times greater than the average population.
To many, this was a huge moment for the LGBTQ community around the world.
For a member of the British Royal Family to give such an endorsement to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights, and their fight for equality, is a big deal, especially in a time when the visibility of LGBT people is being continually questioned.
However, with the Duke of Cambridge being a figurehead for the Royal Family as well as the Commonwealth, it is also worth remembering that homosexual activity is still a criminal offence in 35 of the 53 Commonwealth nations – and it is only legal in 18.
Many will now be wondering whether Prince William’s words could have a positive impact on these places, where people are still fighting for their lives because of who they love.
People on Twitter reacted with absolute joy – especially since his announcement came during Pride Month.
And the fact that both him, his brother, and their families have been vocal advocates for the LGBTQ community.
While others thought it took way too long…
Though most countered that argument with “better late than never.”
And others wondered if Prince William would face the same backlash that Megan Markle did for her support of Pride on Instagram.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry also celebrated the LGBTQ+ community this month by dedicating their @SussexRoyal Instagram page to the cause. The royal couple, who welcomed son Archie on May 6, gave their Instagram page a rainbow tribute in honor of Pride Month, which kicks off June 1 in the U.K. and the US.
Meghan and Harry shared a collage made of photos — which included one of Harry’s late mother Princess Diana — from accounts they are following this month which included The Trevor Project, Stonewall UK, SAGE and artist Ruben Guadalupe Marquez.
“This month we pay tribute to the accounts supporting the LGBTQ+ community – those young and old, their families and friends, accounts that reflect on the past and are hopeful for a deservedly more inclusive future,” the couple captioned the post.
“We stand with you and support you 🌈 Because it’s very simple: love is love.”
Apparently, Megan got in hot water for the post she made on Instagram in support of Pride month.
Let’s hope that this was a one time mistake by the Royal family and that they’ll throw their support behind the LGBTQ community moving forward. Having another royal, Prince William, speak out in favor of the LGBTQ community has got to have some effect on the family as a whole.
On July 10, Cardi B and her fiance Offset welcomed their baby girl into the world. The Bronx rapper broke the news this morning on her Instagram. While everyone is exicted for a new member of the Bardi family, there was a lot of attention given to her name.
Cardi informed the world that her baby’s name is KultureKiariCephus.
So how did the couple come up with this interesting name? Well, Offset’s real name is Kiari Cephus. So what about the Kulture? The couple have yet to fully disclose the reasoning behind the name, here’s some easy clues as to why they named their baby girl Kulture.
