Roenick had a goal and assist and Recchi scored the go-ahead
goal to lead Philadelphia to its fourth straight win, 2-1 over the
New York Islanders on Tuesday night.
Amonte added an assist to extend his scoring streak to a
career-best nine games, the longest current streak in the league.
"We are having a lot of close support, and that's the biggest
thing," Recchi, 35, said of his 33-year-old linemates. "We have
three guys that can skate very well and compete very well."
Jeff Hackett stopped 23 shots and center Michal Handzus made a
brilliant save to help Philadelphia win for the fifth time in six
games and remain unbeaten at home (5-0-2). Vancouver (7-0-1) is the
only other NHL team without a home loss.
Adrian Aucoin scored for the Islanders, who lost
consecutive games for the first time this season. New York blew a
2-0 lead in a 4-3 loss to Atlanta on Saturday.
"It's tough. They're big, they're strong, they're quick,"
Islanders coach Steve Stirling said of the Flyers. "They're a
speed and power team."
Just 50 seconds after the Islanders tied it at 1 in the second
period, Recchi gave the Flyers another lead with his fifth goal.
Marcus Ragnarsson's shot from outside the circle was knocked down
by Aucoin in front of the net, but Recchi got the rebound and slid
it past Islanders goaltender Garth Snow.
"I was just going to the net, and the puck bounced right to
me," Recchi said. "I was able to go through the five-hole on
Snow, a former Flyers player, had 31 saves. He was unbeaten his
previous three starts.
"They put a lot of shots on net and created a lot of traffic in
front of the net," Snow said.
The best save of the night came early in the second period when
Handzus slid into an empty net and stopped a point-blank shot by
Shawn Bates after Trent Hunter drew Hackett away from the crease
with a terrific move.
"It was one of those things sometimes it looks better than it
actually is," Handzus said. "It was a real lucky one. I mean it
just hit me. I tried to go down, and it just hit me."
Roenick, Recchi and Amonte have 44 points in 14 games this
season. The trio was united during a four-game West Coast trip when
Recchi filled in after Radovan Somik went down with a knee sprain.
Roenick and Amonte have known each other since they were kids.
They played together in prep school in suburban Boston in the 1980s
and again with the Chicago Blackhawks in the mid-1990s before
reuniting last season in Philadelphia.
"It's kind of hard for that chemistry to go away," Roenick
said. "We feel really good together right now. I think Rex is the
absolute perfect guy to play along with us."
Roenick gave the Flyers a 1-0 lead with 4:28 left in the first.
He took a centering pass from Amonte and slapped it past Snow for
his seventh goal.
"Tony holds and holds and then he gives the pass," Roenick
said. "You can't teach that. That was an unbelievable pass."
Amonte, acquired by the Flyers from Phoenix, has six goals and
seven assists during his scoring streak. He didn't have a goal in
the first five games.
"It's been fun," Amonte said. "I'm playing with J.R. and Rex,
two of the better players in the game. It's fun to go out there,
try to work hard and move the puck around. Those guys are so
creative and try to get in the open."
The Islanders tied it on a power-play goal by Aucoin midway
through the second. Alexei Yashin won the faceoff and sent the puck
to Janne Niinimaa at the point. Aucoin one-timed the pass from
Niinimaa between Hackett's legs just five seconds into the
man-advantage for his first goal.
Islanders C Jason Wiemer was a healthy scratch. General
manager Mike Milbury told him to stay home over the weekend because
the team is trying to trade or waive him for financial reasons.
Wiemer is making $1.62 million this season. ... The Flyers are
7-0-3 in their last 10 regular-season home games, dating to last
season. ... The Islanders were unbeaten in their previous five
games in Philadelphia (4-0-1). The Flyers' last win at home over
the Islanders had been Feb. 1, 2001. ... Hackett has consecutive 2-1

We actually had a relatively cool day a few weeks ago here in the Midwest, and I was really craving a cake-like dessert. I decided it was cool enough to turn on the oven. A Caramelized Banana Upside-Down Cake sounded amazing.
It’s challenging to write recipes for a “healthy sugar” product and the ZenSweet Life blog when most sweet recipes are baked. Corey’s a stickler when it comes to turning the oven on if the temperature is anything above 75 degrees outside. Needless to say, the summer is challenging for bakers.
I have yet to master ZenSweet Ice Cream, but plan to do so very soon as well as bring you other no-bake desserts. But, this specific afternoon we wanted cake!
This recipe is relatively simple and eye catching with a spiral of banana slices on top. It’s a nice alternative to the standard pineapple upside down cake. It is a great cake to bring to a pot luck or make for a party because it’s just a little different and delicious. You can serve this Caramelized Banana Upside-Down Cake with fresh whipped cream, coconut cream or ice cream if you desire.

–Anwar Majeed asks SC to reconsider decision of ordering NAB to file references in Islamabad
— Accuses FIA of ‘stalling case on purpose’ by not presenting challan in banking court
ISLAMABAD: Omni Group Chairman Anwar Majeed on Wednesday submitted a petition in the Supreme Court seeking reconsideration of an earlier decision to transfer the fake accounts case to National Accountability Bureau (NAB) in Islamabad.
All allegations are connected with Karachi and all witnesses live there as well. The order for National Accountability Bureau (NAB) to file the reference in Islamabad is illegal,” the petition said.
Majeed argued the case “is related to the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), not NAB”, as he accused the FIA of stalling the case on purpose by not submitting challan in the banking court. Hence, he added, FIA should be asked to file a challan soon.
Claiming that the report submitted by the joint investigation team (JIT) was based on speculation as it gives the impression that “all money in the mentioned bank accounts was collected through crimes”. Any further investigations in the case will jeopardise the petitioner’s right to a fair trial, it argued.
Further, the petition stated that Majeed faces ill health and has submitted medical reports as evidence to substantiate the claim. It also alleged that the FIA had launched a media campaign against the petitioner as media was being provided details of the investigation’s progress.
Zardari and Talpur filed a similar petition with the SC seeking a review of its decision to send the fake bank accounts case to NAB on Jan 28, merely a week after NAB Chairman Javed Iqbal, in compliance with court orders, transferred the cases to Islamabad.
Zardari and Faryal in their petition had asserted that a JIT had been forced by SC on the request of FIA, and took issue that the accused “appeared before JIT, submitted written replies but the agency has not found any direct evidence against them”.
It had argued that the JIT report is “based on assumptions as it did not include our stance”. Further, it asserted that the JIT had recommended further probe into the case while the apex court agreed that there was the absence of “substantial evidence”.
The case was transferred from Karachi to Islamabad “without any reason” and “Zardari has been the target of political revenge throughout his life”, the petition had said.
The Supreme Court decision will affect the “fair trial” and the top court’s January 7 should be reviewed, they had pleaded.
On December 24, the JIT, formed on the apex court’s orders to probe into the alleged money-laundering case, presented its 128-page final report to the court which included recommendations for filing 16 NAB references.
The report had mentioned that 29 fake accounts were identified by the FIA which had laundered Rs42 billion, however, the team further discovered 11,500 bank accounts of 924 account holders, 59 Suspicious Transaction Reports (STRs) and 24,500 Cash Transactions Reports (CTRs). All of these details were scrutinized, besides the loan profile of 924 individuals.
The report further stated that the fake accounts were opened through the Omni Group, however, the accounts had been engaged with direct transactions with the Zardari Group, Bahria Town, Sindh government departments and certain contractors while the ultimate beneficiary of money laundering was Zardari’s family.

8 Life-Changing Questions to Ask Before You Turn 18
One of the classes that’s missing from high school is Success 101—a class that teaches you how to be a happy, fulfilled, and successful adult.
It’s a class that doesn’t exist because most adults don’t have those things figured out. But it doesn’t have to be this way.
Below are 8 questions to start asking before you turn 18 that will increase your chances of success—and more importantly, happiness.
If you can answer all of them at 18, you’re a unicorn. If you can’t, don’t worry. Write them down, keep them in the back of your mind, and come back to them often.
1. What’s one activity that makes you lose track of time?
There’s this thing called flow state, and it’s one of the most powerful mental states you can be in. Time and distractions seem to disappear.
But this isn’t a passive thing, like scrolling through social media or watching YouTube. Flow state is an active process.
It might happen when you’re playing sports, playing an instrument, writing, building things, volunteering, programming, or drawing.
If you can’t think of anything you’ve tried that puts you in this state, try as many things as possible until you find something that does. This will help you figure out one of two things:
- A possible career path that you may be good at and enjoy
- If not a career, a hobby that will bring you fulfillment for the rest of your life
2. What do you want to be remembered for?
Finding your purpose is the ultimate life hack. It acts as a reference point for decision making, gives you a clear path, and provides you with strength, courage, and energy.
One of the best ways to find your purpose in life is to work backward. Ask yourself, “What are three things I would want to be remembered for?”
Think about the things that overwhelm you with anger, sadness, or happiness. Is there anything that keeps you up at night? Is there something about the world you feel must change?
For me, these things are:
- The failures of our current education system
- An increasingly dirty and polluted environment
- The terrible way we treat the animals that become our food
3. What topic could you talk about for an hour (with passion)?
It could be anything. Sneakers, music, dogs, space, fashion, woodworking, makeup, computers… anything. Doesn’t matter what it is, just be passionate and informed.
If you’re a Jack or Jill of many interests—meaning you known a little about a lot of things—figure out what one thing you like best and double down on that.Tip: It is (really) valuable to be well-rounded, but ultimately fortune usually favors people who are known for being great at a specific thing.
4. Are you surrounded by people who make you the best version of yourself?
Your friends, boyfriend/girlfriend, teachers, coaches, and role models all influence your well-being, how hard you push yourself, and ultimately what you achieve.
Think about the people you spend the most time with. Do they have a positive attitude? Do they support and believe in you? Do they challenge you? Do they make you dream big?
Or… Do they have a negative attitude? Do they put you and your dreams down? Do they think small? Do they encourage you to be lazy and settle?
The first group of people will make you the best version of yourself. The second group of people will drag you down and are the types of people you should cut out of your life.Takeaway: Cutting people out of your life is a difficult thing to do in high school, but becomes increasingly important to your success and happiness as you get older.
5. Who inspires you (and why)?
We all need people to look up to. People who have done what we want to do. People who have the character, personality, or integrity that we admire. People who inspire us.
It doesn’t matter if they are a parent, friend, teacher, business person, celebrity, or athlete. What matters is that they provide an example to follow.
This is very different from someone who is simply your favorite comedian, athlete, or celebrity. This person is someone you are in awe of that makes you want to be better.
Identify those people and more importantly, write down why they inspire you.
6. What are three things you take for granted?
This is a check on your ego. Don’t mistake ego for confidence. They are not the same thing. Arrogance and ego not only make you less likable but also cloud your judgment.
We all have our moments. Unfortunately, those moments can leave a lasting impression. Trust and respect are two of the hardest things to earn and easiest things to lose.
One of the easiest ways to reign in arrogance is to reflect on what you take for granted. No matter your circumstances, there are likely things you take for granted.
Were you born with a rare talent? Do you come from a privileged background? Are you surrounded by incredible people? Do you have access to clean water?Tip: When you’re feeling judgemental or superior, reflect on what you take for granted. The people around you might have the same things you have. When you remind yourself of this, it often checks your ego.
7. What are three things you are grateful for?
Understanding what you’re grateful for can lift you up when you are feeling down and give you strength when you’re feeling weak. This is the positive spin on what you take for granted.
You stop taking things for granted when you recognize their positive impact on your life and express gratitude for them.
Reminding yourself of three things you are grateful for can have a profoundly positive effect on your mood and relationships.Insight: Some of the most successful people in the world—including Oprah and Rihana—remind themselves of what they’re grateful for every morning.
8. Are you comfortable in your own skin?
This is the hardest question on the list. Many people struggle with being comfortable in their own skin for their entire lives.
If at 18, you already feel comfortable with yourself you’ve overcome one of life’s greatest obstacles. If you’re not, have no fear. We’re all a work in progress.Insight: Everyone around you has their own insecurities, fears, and struggles. The more comfortable you can become with your personality, abilities, and weaknesses the less time and energy you will spend worrying, doubting, and feeling uneasy.
What to do next
It’s cliche, but the best things in life are rarely easy. These questions should be difficult to answer. Each one has elements that might take your whole life to master. And that’s ok.
The more you work on figuring out answers to the questions above, the more likely you will have the self-awareness, purpose, tools, and relationships to be happy and successful.

Two years after Apple threw a wrench in the once easy-to-penetrate online marketing ecosystem, Instagram ads remain a tough addiction for fashion and beauty start-ups to quit.
Brands are spending 28 percent more on paid ads on social media, mostly on Meta (Facebook and Instagram’s parent company), this year, according to data from analytics software firm Triple Whale. Many brands say more than half of their marketing budgets goes toward buying ads on Facebook and Instagram. This is reflected in Meta’s own rebound: The company’s advertising revenue fell 1 percent to $114 billion in 2022 but rose 4 percent year-over-year to $28 billion in the first quarter of 2023.
“People never really left [Meta],” said Rabah Rahil, chief evangelist at Triple Whale, which helps brands manage their digital marketing. “They might have turned spend down a bit. There was never an exodus.”
The rules of advertising on the social media giant have changed, though.
For starters, brands today are not as dependent on Instagram for growth. When Apple introduced privacy restrictions in 2021 — letting iPhone users opt out of being tracked across different apps and sites — brands saw their sales plummet as it became harder to target shoppers most likely to buy their goods.
Instead of leaving social media, brands adapted. Before they dive into paid ads, brands are ramping up content on their own feeds — such as short videos that show people discussing their products — so there’s more for prospective consumers who have seen their ads to engage with. Many brands are only increasing their ad budgets on platforms like Meta when they know that the shoppers they’re targeting will spend enough for the brands to generate a profit on those orders.
“What we would observe two years ago was a much broader, inefficient throw money at a bunch of ideas kind of approach,” said Taryn Jones Laeben, president and founder of IRL Ventures, which consults DTC start-ups like intimates brand Parade on their business strategies. “What we advocate for now is, in a more modulated way, testing into more targeted hypotheses on a much smaller scale and then leaning into spend as you find success.”
A Measured Approach
Companies are targeting ads at customers on platforms like Meta when it’s clear that the value of those shoppers’ first order will be more than the cost to run a campaign.
To help track that, advertisers are accounting for the costs to produce, pack and ship the goods when they place those ads. Meta also released new tools in 2022 — like its feature that automates the process of selecting the best campaigns to reach new audiences who are most likely to shop with a brand — to support these efforts. (Meta is still the biggest social media platform in online marketing, owning a little over 20 percent of total digital advertising in the US in 2022, according to estimates by Insider Intelligence).
Brands are also willing to reduce spending at any moment if they are not breaking even.
This tactic is working for brands like wellness start-up Bear Balanced. The 3-year-old company, which sells energy-boosting creatine gummies, is not afraid to spend up to 50 percent of its marketing budget on Facebook and Instagram ads or to significantly drop that portion, depending on how profitable the sales it gets from those ads are. Bear Balanced generates up to 35 percent EBITDA margins — earnings before interest and taxes — each month, and it expects its annual sales will grow 100 percent year-over-year in the next 12 months, largely from its paid ad strategy on Instagram.
“You put in a dollar, you get a second dollar out,” said Dylan Menter, founder and chief executive of Bear Balanced. “The further we are away from that, the less I’m going to spend on those campaigns.”
The Right Content
Newer brands are easing their way into buying ads on social media, which they are using to punctuate their pre-existing brand-building tactics.
When Dibs Beauty launched in 2021, it was mostly posting videos on its social pages of the brand’s co-founder and other content creators using items like its double-ended blush and bronzer sticks and face and body highlighters. Last September, the 2-year-old cosmetics seller started placing ads on Instagram to increase sales on its site.
The company repurposed the videos on its page as campaigns, spending as little as $10,000 a month, and saw a sales bump. That monthly budget has increased to more than $100,000, which also accounts for other social media platforms like TikTok, YouTube and ads on Google. Dibs Beauty anticipates it can triple sales this year as its social media advertising budget grows.
“We’ve been pretty conservative in terms of how we begin to scale our [paid ad] program,” said Mindy Luong, vice president of digital at Dibs Beauty. “It is cost-efficient for us to lean into content that is already created in the marketplace.”
In the last six months, more brands have used social media management platform Dash Hudson’s entertainment score, which measures engagement and how long people spend watching a brands’ videos, to decide which content to use as paid ads on Instagram and TikTok, said Kate Kenner Archibald, chief marketing officer at Dash Hudson.
“The right content in the right space matters more than ever,” Archibald said. “The better content you have, the better it is going to drive people down the funnel.”
Refining the Mix
Brands have become exact in how they identify the right moment to raise their social media marketing budgets, often doing so when they know they can drive higher revenue.
Skin care brand Loops, which sells hydrogel masks, will spend as much as seven times more on paid ads when launching a new product.
Prior to launch, the brand will send out email ads to prospective customers to sign-up for the new product. The day the product is unveiled, the brand will target ads at people on social media who signed up for events, offers and launches through email, along with the audiences of its celebrity creative director, actor Camila Mendes, its retail partners like Ulta and Target, and content creators, who are also promoting the new item. If the brand breaks even on the orders from those ads, it will increase spending to push out more ads in the following days.
“We know who’s promoting it and who’s talking about it,” said Meg Bedford, Loops’ chief executive. “It always behoves us to have partners to help amplify the message and kind of make the conversation bigger.”
Loops’ approach also proves that brands’ paid ads work best when coupled with other marketing channels.
Glamnetic, which offers magnetic eyelashes and press-on nails, counts on its email and text message marketing, loyal fans congregating on Facebook groups and distribution at retail partners, including Ulta and Sephora, to establish brand awareness. That awareness increases the likelihood that a person who is exposed to the brand’s campaigns on social media will click through and spend enough money for the brand to earn a profit from that order.
“All of those things have to work,” said Kevin Gould, founder and CEO of holding and operating company Kombo Ventures and co-owner of Glamnetic. “If you’re missing one, that one piece can make the whole performance funnel not work.”

Exceptional and prolonged drought conditions have created the potential for elevated fire danger, largely in southern Wisconsin. That’s led the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources to require burn permits in designated DNR protection areas across a dozen counties.
The special fire order affects Columbia, Crawford, Green Lake, Marquette, Portage, Richland, Sauk, Waupaca and Waushara counties. It also effects parts of Dane, Grant, and Iowa counties.
Beginning Monday, people in those areas must get a permit for burning debris piles, grass or certain wooded areas. They must also obtain a permit for using burn barrels. Permits won’t be required for campfires, but the agency urges people to use extreme caution.

The DNR said a lack of rain has created concerns that wildfires may occur in southern Wisconsin.
Todd Rieck, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service Office in La Crosse, said many parts of southwestern Wisconsin have seen a shortfall of 9 to 12 inches of rain since April.
“We’re moving into a higher fire danger season (where) the grasses start dying off, the leaves start falling more,” Rieck said. “With all this dried litter and tinder, fires are going to be a lot easier to catch and can move a lot faster.”
The DNR said debris burning continues to be one of the leading causes of wildfires. As of early August, Wisconsin had seen about 250 more wildfires than normal this year due to ongoing drought conditions.
The agency typically requires burn permits from January through May. The DNR said it plans to require burn permits until drought conditions improve due to lots of rain or snow.

Romanian southern city of Ploiesti is the only one with two malls being built at the same time, namely Ploiesti Shopping City project and AFI Ploiesti.
Thus, NEPI and Carrefour are close to finishing the Ploiesti Shopping City, while Israel’s AFI Europe has built 70% of the structure of AFI Ploiesti, which it’s scheduled for opening on October 3 2013.
Ploiesti had remained one of the few large Romanian cities without a modern mall, although developers did not bypass the city during the real estate boom, when at least five investors bought land in order to develop shopping centers.
But then the crisis came, companies such as Sierra, Mivan and Westhill put their plans on hold, and one of the major cities of Romania, which accommodates operations of multinationals such as Unilever, Timken, Cameron, Yazaki, Kaufland (logistical center), Lukoil and OMV Petrom, has yet to have a modern shopping center.
But last winter, NEPI and Carrefour started work on a project around Carrefour’s hypermarket located on the outskirts of Ploiesti, at the exit towards Brasov, and in May AFI Europe kicked off construction of AFI Ploiesti, a EUR49 million investment.
Whereas the project next to Carrefour is almost ready, AFI is still working on the concrete structure, which is 70% ready and should be finalized by the end of the year.
AFI’s mall will therefore be the city’s second, scheduled to open next autumn, but almost 70% of the spaces have already been rented out to retailers such as Cora, H&M, Reserved, New Look, Nike and Flanco. In addition, the project’s developers say they have not given incentives to future tenants, a common practice lately on the shopping center segment.
“This was the first project I bought for AFI Europe in 2007, when I was the company’s business development manager. The Flacara factory had gone insolvent, somebody bought it and we took over the four-hectare land from them,” recalls David Hay, who in 2011 took over as CEO of AFI Europe Romania, the company that developed the most expensive shopping mall on the Romanian market – AFI Cotroceni – a EUR300 million investment.
But things are different for the Ploiesti mall. The plot is located somewhere in between the city center and the exit to Buzau and the intention is to build as “clean” a mall as possible, without the “bling bling” of the Cotroceni project in Bucharest, which was built in different times.
“The Cotroceni mall was built during a peak time for the market, (…) at an above-average standard not just for Romania, but at European level. For instance the Cotroceni glass dome was extremely expensive, you will only find something like that in Moscow. The Ploiesti project has been adjusted to the city and to the times,” Hay says.
There are around 350 employees of Israeli Danya Cebus working on the Ploiesti construction site. This is also the company that built the Bucharest mall, with Danya Cebus and AFI Europe having joint shareholders.
The project consists of an underground level, a ground floor and an upper floor and has a 28,500 square-meter lettable area and in the back area a second stage of construction is provided for, with a 3,500 square-meter area allocated for a future multiplex cinema.
On the underground level there are 350 parking spaces, Cora storage facilities, 2,300 square meters of commercial spaces, as well as a 600 square-meter shelter against chemical and biological attacks. The ground floor will accommodate the Cora hypermarket, stores that provide services (banks, drugstores, telephony stores) and the first level of the H&M store, while the company plans to place the rest of the fashion stores on the upper floor.
“We know that many provincial malls have problems – some are located outside the city, others have design problems and most have problems with their upper floors, a problem we have faced ourselves at Cotroceni, until we managed to stabilize our activity. But in Ploiesti we want to take all fashion stores to the upper floor and persuade retailers that this is the right solution,” David Hay says.
The manager says the average mall rent is close to EUR20/sq m/month, the hypermarket excluded.
According to ZF estimates, AFI Europe has so far invested around EUR20 million in this project (the land alone cost EUR9 million) and hopes to sign a financing contract for the mall with an Austrian bank by the end of this year.
What results does he expect? “We have ordered a market survey and the city’s purchasing power is around EUR500 million per year. There are around 180,000 people in Ploiesti and around 250,000 in the surrounding area and we expect a daily traffic of around 20,000 people. A lot of people from Ploiesti go to Baneasa (a mall on the outskirts of Bucharest i.e.) which is a 50 minute ride from Ploiesti. They even come to Cotroceni Mall for shopping and will probably continue to come even after the opening of the Ploiesti malls, because [the Bucharest malls] offer a different variety of stores.”
On the way to Bucharest, the manager is already thinking of future projects, as he believes the Ploiesti mall is “on the right track”. AFI Europe, controlled by billionaire Lev Leviev, has invested around half a billion euros on the Romanian market, where it owns land in Arad, as well as at the intersection of Bucharest’s ring road with the highway to Ploiesti and in Bucurestii Noi (northern Bucharest), where the company paid over EUR70 million for the Laromet platform five years ago.
“This is the project we need to focus on now because it’s been too many years since we bought the land and haven’t built anything yet. We got the town planning permit, we hope to also get the construction permit by the end of the year and then start construction of the commercial area. The Ploiesti project and the offices next to the Cotroceni mall, where we started to work on the second building, are on track.”

Design and Implementation of Parallel Computing Models for Solar Radiation Simulation
MetadataShow full item record
In order to simulate geographical phenomenon, many complex and high precision models have been developed by scientists. But at most time common hardware and implementation of those computation models are not capable of processing large amounts of data, and the time performance might be unacceptable. Nowadays, the growth in the speed of modern graphics processing units is incredible, and the flops/dollar radio provided by GPU is also growing very fast, which makes large scale GPU clusters gain popularity in the scientific computing community. However, GPU programming and clusters' software deployment and development are associated with a number of challenges. In this thesis, the geo-science model developed by I. D. Dobreva and M. P. Bishop proposed in A Spatial Temporal, Topographic and Spectral GIS based Solar Radiation Model (SRM) was analyzed. I built a heterogeneous cluster and developed its software framework which could provide powerful computation service for complex geographic models. Time performance and computation accuracy has been analyzed. Issues and challenges such as GPU programming, job balancing and scheduling are addressed. The SRM application running on this framework can process data fast enough and be able to give researchers rendering images as feedback in a short time, which improved the performance by hundreds of times when compared to the current performance in our available hardware, and the speedup can easily be scaled by adding new machines.

The Ministry of Public Health’s Mental Health Unit has recorded a decrease in suicide cases in 2018 when compared to the previous year.
This was disclosed by Head of the Unit, Dr. Util Thomas, who was speaking at a Mental Health Workshop held by the British High Commission in collaboration with the Guyana Press Association (GPA) at the High Commissioner’s Bel Air Gardens, Georgetown residence on Saturday.
She said suicide is a priority mental health problem.
Dr. Thomas said the Unit only began tracking the suicide rates when she was appointed in 2016. It found that in 2017, there were 184 cases of which 127 were males. This reduced in 2018 to 141 cases of which 117 were males and the remainder females.
She pointed out that there are many contributing factors which the Ministry is working to address. One of those is substance abuse and another is self-harm.
Firstly, she said persons tend to commit acts when they are intoxicated which they would not have otherwise done.
As such, the Ministry of Public Health is looking to establish a substance abuse ward in 2020 at the National Psychiatric Hospital located in New Amsterdam, Berbice.
The Mental Health practitioner told the News Room that “most of the admissions to the [psychiatric] ward are dual diagnosis, there are psychosis brought on by some form of substance abuse.”
She explained that substance abuse treatment can be done on an outpatient level as well, however, such a person will have to show up regularly for counselling and do whatever is asked of them.
“The main purpose of the facility is to keep them away from the substance because a lot of the do not have the strength to voluntarily keep them away from the substance,” she added.
Secondly, Dr Thomas pointed out that the Ministry is conducting a programme targeting persons who harm themselves.
“Most persons practice until they build up the courage to perform the act,” she said when asked about the origin of the programme.
The self-harm surveillance program targets persons who in one form or the other perform acts to physically harm themselves, inclusive of those who attempt suicide.
There are social workers embedded in strategic areas to ensure that the programme is effective, including the New Amsterdam Hospital (Region Six), the West Demerara Regional Hospital (Region Three), Suddie Hopsital (Region Two) and Linden Hospital (Region Ten).
Follow ups are done with the patients until a psychiatrist certifies that they’re no longer at risk, Dr. Thomas said.
“We also assess the survivors, we check if there is any family member with increased risk of suicide,” she said.
Additionally, the Ministry offers services at its Mental Health Unit at Brickdam, Georgetown from 08:00hrs to 16:00hrs on week days.
The other causes of suicide in Guyana, Dr. Thomas said are financial loss, chronic pain which interferes with a person’s ability to sleep, family history of suicide, abuse and depression among others.
The context of family history is often debated but the Mental Health practitioner explained that family members most times “share coping mechanisms” and this contributes to what is referred to as ‘the copycat’ symptom.
In the Americas, the highest suicide rate was found among persons of over 70 years of age while in Guyana the highest cases of suicide come from persons who are between 60 to 64 years.
Dr. Thomas said one of the challenges faced is the lack of mental health specialists to cater to the entire population.
There are about seven psychiatrists for the entire population, she said, noting that that’s less than one psychiatrist for every 100,000 population.
The Ministry is, however, teaching primary care doctors, teachers and others to assist in treating mental health.
At Saturday’s workshop, the media was educated on how to effectively report on mental health and suicide without contributing to the problem.
Other presenters included Deputy British High Commissioner Ray Davidson, Professor Paloma Mohamed and social activist Vidyartha Kissoon and veteran journalist, Neil Marks.


An inverted metallurgical microscope is a specialized microscope used in metallurgical analysis, materials science, and other fields where observation and analysis of opaque samples are necessary.
Unlike a traditional upright microscope where the objective lens is above the specimen, an inverted metallurgical microscope has the objective lens located beneath the specimen stage. This allows for the analysis of large or bulky samples that cannot fit onto a traditional microscope stage.
The inverted design also allows for easy manipulation of the specimen, as the stage can be adjusted to accommodate samples of different sizes and shapes. Additionally, the light source in an inverted metallurgical microscope is located above the stage, allowing for better illumination and contrast when viewing opaque specimens.
Inverted metallurgical microscopes are commonly used in the analysis of metals and alloys, as well as in the study of biological tissues and other materials that cannot be easily viewed with a traditional microscope. They are often equipped with specialized features such as polarizers, filters, and cameras to aid in the analysis of samples.
Inverted metallurgical microscopes are commonly used in metallurgical analysis and research, material science, and industrial quality control. They allow for the observation of opaque materials, such as metals, ceramics, polymers, and composites. Inverted metallurgical microscopes are especially useful for analyzing cross-sections of materials, as well as for examining the microstructure of samples that have been polished and etched.
Inverted metallurgical microscopes can be equipped with a range of imaging techniques, such as brightfield, darkfield, phase contrast, and fluorescence microscopy. They may also have additional accessories, such as cameras, image analysis software, and specialized illumination sources, to aid in the analysis of samples.
One important application of inverted metallurgical microscopes is in the field of failure analysis. Inverted metallurgical microscopes can be used to analyze the structure of failed components and identify the root cause of failure. This information can then be used to improve the design and manufacturing of future components.
Inverted metallurgical microscopes can also be used for live cell imaging and other biological applications, as they can accommodate thick samples, such as tissue culture cells, with ease. This makes them useful for studying the behavior of cells and tissues in real-time.
Another advantage of inverted metallurgical microscopes is that they can be used with a wide range of magnifications, from low magnification for macroscopic observations to high magnification for detailed analysis of microstructures. They are also capable of producing high-quality images with high resolution and contrast, making it possible to visualize fine details and defects in materials.
In addition to their applications in metallurgy and materials science, inverted metallurgical microscopes are also used in other fields, such as geology, forensics, and environmental science. They can be used to analyze geological samples, such as rocks and minerals, as well as to examine forensic evidence, such as fibers and hair samples.
Overall, the inverted metallurgical microscope is a powerful tool for analyzing a wide range of materials, from metals and alloys to biological tissues and forensic samples. Its unique design and specialized imaging techniques make it an essential tool for researchers, engineers, and industrial professionals working in a range of fields.
In summary, the inverted metallurgical microscope is a specialized tool used in the analysis of opaque materials. It has a unique design that allows for the observation of large and bulky samples, as well as the manipulation of specimens for analysis. With a range of imaging techniques and specialized accessories, inverted metallurgical microscopes are essential tools for metallurgical analysis, material science, and industrial quality control.

New York State Bill S1379/A2736 would stop police and prosecutors from using possession of condoms as evidence of prostitution. Currently, police and courts can use the fact that a person has or is carrying condoms to prove that they are engaging in prostitution-related offenses.People who are or are profiled as involved in the sex trades report that they are more likely to be arrested if they carry condoms. Police officers regularly confiscate condoms from people they allege are engaged in prostitution to use as evidence against them at trial. District Attorneys routinely refer to the number of condoms a person had on them in criminal court complaints accusing them of engaging in prostitution-related offenses such as “loitering for the purposes of prostitution” (NYPL 240.37)
As a result people are hesitant to carry condoms to protect themselves and others, for fear that it will lead to arrest or be held against them in court. Sound public health policy would encourage condom use by eliminating the fear that carrying a condom will be used against you by police or in a court of law.
Follow this link to read the text of New York State Bill S1379/A2736 and to stay updated on the Bill’s actions in the State Legislature.
Join us for a rally and lobby day in Albany April 23, 2013 to advocate for an end to this practice!
See our Memos of Support for this legislation.
President’s Advisory Council on HIV/AIDS passes resolution urging an end to the use of condoms as a basis of criminal prosecution or sentence enhancement.
Two new reports document the harms caused by the use of condoms as evidence in multiple cities and countries.
On Thursday, July 19th, HUMAN RIGHTS WATCH released a report entitled “Sex Workers at Risk: Condoms as Evidence of Prostitution in Four US Cities,” about the harms caused by this practice in 4 major U.S. cities. The report reveals that efforts to take condoms in multiple U.S. cities negatively impact the health of sex workers and transgender women, and furthermore undermine public health campaigns for HIV prevention. Read more about the HRW report here.
On Tuesday, July 17th, OPEN SOCIETY FOUNDATIONS released a report entitled “Criminalizing Condoms,” about the use of condoms as a means to target sex workers in six different countries. This report reveals that the “treatment of condoms as contraband forces sex workers to make a choice between safeguarding their health and staying safe from police harassment or arrest” by documenting law enforcement practices and the resulting harms for sex workers in Kenya, Namibia, Russia, South Africa, the United States and Zimbabwe. Read more about the OSF report here.

The Nature of New York: An Environmental History of the Empire State Hardcover – August 6, 2010
Frequently bought together
Customers who bought this item also bought
"Stradling examines virtually every major environmental issue in U.S. history from the point of view of how it played out in the state of New York. In some cases, the environmental actions of such New York men as the Roosevelts and Bob Marshall of The Wilderness Society influenced the whole country. . . . Stradling's scope runs from the effects of the Erie Canal in producing the market revolution to the pollution by chemical industries that caused the Love Canal crisis. . . . This accessible, gracefully written book meets its goal and will be especially useful for students of New York history."―Choice, June 2010
"A focused, accessible, and comprehensive environmental history. The bibliographic essay is particularly helpful and the text is well-complemented by 12 color plates and 30 figures and maps. The narrative flows as swiftly as any Catskills mountain stream."―Lawrence C. Swayne, Kaatskill Life (Fall 2011)
"In what proved to be a brilliant paring of project and author, Cornell University Press invited David Stradling to write 'an accessible, comprehensive environmental history of New York State.' The resulting book stands as an exemplary stae-focused history. It is also a book brimming with insights into the complex relationship between technology and the environment . . . an outstanding work of environmental history."―Jeffrey K. Stine, Technology and Culture (October 2011)
"David Stradling's survey of New York’s nature over four hundred years―from the Lenape and Leatherstocking to Levittown and Love Canal―is a marvel of environmental writing. In at times heartbreaking detail, he reminds us that New York, like anywhere, is a living place―pristine, violated, cleansed, preserved―where humans are just one organism, a part of and apart from the destiny of the place."―Gerard Koeppel, author of Water for Gotham: A History and Bond of Union: Building the Erie Canal and the American Empire
"Don't be fooled by the term 'environmental history' in its subtitle; The Nature of New York is a big, broad, ambitious, important, and best of all, highly readable book. Given that the Empire State has so often led the nation in environmental progress (and at times in degradation as well), this book will interest anyone who cares about American attitudes toward our natural inheritance. For New Yorkers in particular, David Stradling's book should be required reading."―Paul Schneider, author of The Adirondacks: A History of America's First Wilderness
"What most impresses me about The Nature of New York is David Stradling's focus on events, people, and places that are obviously connected to the state's natural history and his ability to connect that environmental history to the overall history of the region. Simply put, Stradling persuasively illustrates how one cannot fully understand the history of the Empire State without also taking into account the state's intimate relationship to the natural environment."―Neil M. Maher, author of Nature's New Deal: The Civilian Conservation Corps and the Roots of the American Environmental Movement

Though Stradling is a history professor, this is not a dry academic tome. He has a lively writing style and his pasion for the state is evident on every page. The author and the press did a wonderful job with the production. They included a glossy insert of paintings showing the state's environmental past through the centuries, including classics by famous Hudson River School painters.
I moved to central New York from the western U.S. seven years ago, and since then, I've wised for a well-written history of the state that explains the development of its various landscapes. Finally, here it is! If you are interested in the state's history, you'll want this book. If you have a friend or someone in the family with this interest, the book will make a great gift.
New York State has undergone a lot of environmental change in the past 500 years as the author details very well. It is the foundation for the future looming crisis of Climate Change.

Earlier this year, Siya and I were invited to Mexico to take part in the #BarceloStories campaign with several other bloggers and vloggers. Of course we couldn’t say no as Mexico is one of our favourite vacation spots and filming our experiences is what we love to do most.
We spent a week at the Occidental Grand Xcaret in the Riviera Maya, which is approximately 13 km from Playa del Carmen and 67 km from the Cancun airport. The Riviera Maya is one of the hottest destinations on the planet, and with good reason. This slice of paradise has everything you’d want for your getaway vacation. The many shades of blues and greens that make up the ocean waters will captivate you, the white silky sand will comfort you, the cuisine will make your tastebuds dance, the friendly locals will make you feel at home and the countless activities will keep your days fully booked if you choose to.
The Occidental Grand Xcaret combines a fully preserved natural and cultural environment within an all inclusive resort. It has 700 rooms, 10 bars, 11 restaurants and tons of daily and nightly activities and entertainments to keep you busy throughout your entire stay. It welcomes singles, couples and family making it a great vacation spot for all.
Siya and I got to experience another first while staying at the resort, and that was participating in a massive foam pool party.We have been to foam parties before, but none like the one that the resort put on. They clearly know how to give their guests a good time.
We enjoyed relaxing at the resort and indulging in all the delicious food and cocktails that our hearts desired. However, we always make sure to get outside of the resort for some fun. Since the resort is located in such a perfect location, there is plenty to see an do within only a short drive away.
A must experience when in Mexico is to visit the cenotes. A cenote is a natural pit or sinkhole, created from collapsed limestone bedrock that exposes groundwater underneath and were sometimes used by the ancient Maya for sacrificial offerings. There are 6000 cenotes in Mexico, giving you many to choose from.
The area that surrounds the resort has some of the most amazing places for snorkelling or diving in Mexico. Make sure to rent yourself a pair of snorkels and fins and get in that water. You’ll be amazed at what you discover.

Tom Felton, who plays Draco Malfoy in the “Harry Potter” franchise, might have teasingly presented to be in Ariana Grande’s next music video but Grande is taking it seriously and is now considering to really including the Slytherin heir in her next production. Read on to know more.
MTV News reports that the “Harry Potter” star replied to a fan image of Grande’s “Focus” teaser, which played on her platinum blonde, Malfoy-esque hair by inaugurating her into House Slytherin, with Draco—even if he had earlier pegged her for a Gryffindor.
— Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) January 23, 2015
@ArianaGrande if you need an actor in your next music video, I can dig up a very dashing white wig.
— Tom Felton (@TomFelton) October 27, 2015
I will 100000000000% take you up on this. https://t.co/rKdxwTJIwy
— Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) October 27, 2015
Grande made her intent very clear when she guested on the “Zach Sang and the Gang” show and said that Felton’s appearance could last a spilt second and she will most definitely still be fine with it because for the actor, that’s how little it takes to be mind-blowing. Grande is totally working towards having Felton in her next video.
“He tweeted, he was like, ‘If you ever need anyone in your music video.’ I was like, ‘I don’t know what the next single is, but we’re gonna find it, and we’re gonna make sure you’re here.’” she said.
“’I haven’t decided yet. I don’t know what the video treatment is, which song it’s going to be next, but single number two, you’re the lead. Let’s go. Let’s go,’” she added. “He can walk by in the background. That’s it. That’s all I need.”
Here’s Grande’s radio interview:
Grande also noted that she develops creativeness from fellow musician and well-known hair chameleon and pop goddess Katy Perry, who in one time, was able to join her in a prayer circle and provided some wisdom to the “Baby I” singer.
“Katy was very nice to me when I first put out music, and she took me under her wing was like, ‘Hey, if you ever need anything, I can totally be here,’” Grande said.
“She was very welcoming and wonderful and it was so crazy because I went to her show at the Staples Center a couple of years ago. And I was totally inspired by it. I was like, ‘Wow. I want to do this.’” she added.
Little did Grande know that after three years, she herself would be on the very same stage at Staples Center.
“She came, and she held my hand in the prayer circle, and she was there, and she was like, ‘Girl you were here a few years ago watching me, and now I’m watching you. You better kill it, girl!”

She was the fourth mate for Mr. Bird!
I brought home a new mate for him but he only
lived a couple more weeks himself! One morning last week he was laying
dead on the bottom of the cage when I went to
feed them! Apparently his old age finally
caught up to him! He was a whopping 12 years old!
Unheard of for a parakeet!
Our pet cemetery in the back yard is growing!
Have I told you that The Mister swears he's burying me out there, too?
Hopefully he'll wait until I'm dead. lol....
The new Mrs. Bird is on the left. She's a pretty turquoise color. She seems to like the new Mr. Bird, too.
Can you guess why I picked him? I mean..it's obvious, isn't it?
Just look at those feathers...they look just like a blue sky with clouds! :)
The both sing such sweet songs to each other.
It's really quite sweet they way they kiss, feed each other and coo!

Boeing have come under fire over recent years, due to the tragic and fatal crashes of two 737 MAX aircraft since 2018, as well as a non-fatal accident occurring in December 2023 in which a door plug blasted out of a 737 MAX at an altitude of 16,000 feet. The question arises as to how and why these incidents were allowed to happen.
The two fatal crashes were that of a Lion Air 737 MAX into the Java Sea in October 2018 and of an Ethiopian Airlines 737 MAX which crashed in March 2019, just five months later. 346 people were killed in total, and as both downed planes were of the same model, questions arose as to it’s safety.
Despite Boeing initially blaming the pilots, it soon came to light that the true cause of the crashes was a flawed new system, one that had been added to the planes without the pilot’s knowledge, and for which they were offered no training – MCAS. The Manoeuvring Characteristics Augmentation System was designed to help with the ‘angle of attack’, maintaining a safe pitch, preventing the aeroplane going up too steeply and stalling. The 737 MAX used larger, more fuel-efficient engines than previous models, these engines had to be positioned higher up and further forward on the wing. However, in a nose up pitch (for example: on take-off), this would make a stall more likely. Therefore, MCAS was added to stabilise the plane, sensing when the aircraft was pitched too steeply and forcibly pushing the nose down.
At first, this seems like a good addition to the predecessor, the Boeing 737, making it more fuel efficient as well as safer. But the problem was that around the same time, Airbus had just globally released their new design of the Airbus A320, known as the A320 NEO. The 737 MAX was designed primarily to compete against the popularity of the NEO. Andy Pasztor states in the documentary Downfall: The Case Against Boeing that derivatives of other aircraft require less time to be approved by the FAA than new models and also have a much lower chance of requiring pilot training. The 737 MAX wasn’t an innovation – it had been built in a rush, out of desperation in the face of declining profits.
The 737 MAX wasn’t an innovation – it had been built in a rush, out of desperation in the face of declining profits.
The use of MCAS on the MAX would have a greater certification impact and therefore pilot re-training may have been required by the Federal Aviation Administration, who issue and enforce regulations and minimum standards for aircraft. The problem Boeing faced was that they didn’t have the time and were unwilling to spend the money on getting MCAS FAA certified, so instead, they externally declared that MCAS was merely an addition to Speed Trim, negating the need for pilot re-training.
In the case of both crashes, it was found that the single sensor feeding the MCAS system, which told the processing unit if the pitch was too steep, had failed. The sensors were behaving as if the plane was stalling, when in reality it was flying normally. Hence, when MCAS pushed the nose down, it sent the planes hurtling to earth.
Congressman Peter DeFazio who was part of the court case against Boeing says in the Downfall documentary that Boeing had decided to stop using two of these sensors and instead use one for their new 737 MAX aircraft. DeFazio said that this decision was fatal as “MCAS is safety critical and on an aeroplane, you never have a safety critical system that has a single point of failure.”
“MCAS is safety critical and on an aeroplane, you never have a safety critical system that has a single point of failure.”Peter DeFazio, US Congressman
At the very core of the issue is profit. Pressure from Wall Street as well as the suffocating competition of Airbus led to Boeing cutting a multitude of corners, purposefully withholding information from airline companies and pilots in order to cut costs and maximise profits.
Boeing’s shift towards a profit-above-all attitude towards the aviation engineering was the result of the company merging with McDonnell Douglas in 1997. Boeing’s ethos had previously been grounded in expensive, ground-breaking engineering and with the merge, the company moved towards McDonnell Douglas’s cut-throat culture where they focused on cutting costs where possible and favouring upgrading models rather than creating fresh ideas. Aeroplanes are not products that can be churned out like smartphones on a production line, and the treatment of them in this way proved fatal.
The future of aviation is on thin ice when taking this cost cutting into consideration. Finding ways to make products cheaply is not limited to the aviation industry. For decades, companies have been sourcing ways to keep their costs down, by offshoring labour and seeking out cheap components. In an industry like aviation however, where safety is so critical, this attitude is concerning. The recent and sudden blowout of a door plug on another Boeing 737 MAX, which was less than three months old, does not bode well for the reputation of the company. The problem related to the door plug failure had been outsourced labour to Sprit AeroSystems in Malaysia, a company with historical issues with quality control.
In January 2021, after the two fatal crashes of Boeing 737 MAX aircraft, Boeing had to pay a criminal monetary penalty of 243.6 million dollars as well as compensation payments to its 737 MAX airline customers, which totalled 1.77 billion dollars. It’s a small financial price to pay when considering the company’s annual profits and many are left to wonder how the human cost of these greed-fuelled moves from Boeing may increase over the next few years.

Monks, and gorgeous art, and cliches oh my!
Ok, let’s talk about Nova Zen today. I see this sort of comic a lot these days. It fits in this category of indie comics that have art good enough to be in a mainstream comic (or better) but the writing isn’t up to snuff.
Let’s talk about the good first. The art, particularly the cover art, is second to none. We have a realistic very vibrantly illustrated character with a compelling shaolin monk inspired character design… that we never see in issue #1. The overall style on the interior pages is downright beautiful with full color illustrations, excellent use of panel layout and overall composition. There is a ever so slight cartoonish feel (some of the monks have exaggerated facial features) but it’s merely a hint and it helps differentiate the style of the artist (in a good way). If I had to nitpick (hey… that’s why you are reading this right?) there are a few scenes where there are some oddly lumpy muscles and some variance in proportions (but nothing major).
Now let’s talk about the writing. I know this is a first issue but… man I wish it was as good as the art. It rushes through its own source material is just bland. It’s like the writer took every Kung Fu and “chosen one” storyline cliche and just tossed them in a blender. Basically a guy from “somewhere” shows up at a monastery grasping the hilt of a magic sword (I assume it’s magic) and the monks start chattering about how he is the “chosen one” because of a “prophecy”. The guy wakes up and takes it pretty well and we get some vague exposition about how he needs to save the world. See, if we had SOME (and I mean ANY) insight into what this prophecy was, who said it, what it pertained to, or what the guy (named “Nova”) is supposed to do it might have been a good plot hooke but instead we are told vaguely that he needs to “save the world”. There is no SUBSTANCE to it. We aren’t compelled to want to know more because this is so stock and we have no specifics whatsoever. We are then run through some very stock “monk things” including a martial arts demo, some meditation, and painfully simple explanation of a “cosmic energy”. Then we meet some stock bad guys whose only defining characteristic thus far is that they are bad. I mean we LITERALLY have a character say, “this is immoral” and the other one say, “Yeah I know but we are going to do it anyway”. I guess, on the whole, it just feels derivative of other works. (We also have a spelling mistake on page 14 (“he we are, don’t be worried.”) and a few awkward lines sprinkled over the whole comic.)
There is also this weird failure of logic in the comic. Like we have a guy meditating with Nova who suddenly informs him that he is late to meet with his next instructor- why! They weren’t doing anything so why does he suddenly have to rush! Or the martial arts master says Nova looks “a little scrawny” when the guy is built like a house (like one step below a Rob Liefeld character). The master also orders him into a horse stance and, despite knowing nothing at all he just drops into one (also- page 13 has a little white border on the left side).
I feel like this comic wants to mimic a lot of great martial arts stories but doesn’t know enough to actually give it any substance. We have a stock, ill-defined, prophecy about a guy with no memory who trains with some monks with an ill-defined set of mystical beliefs/powers, who will protect the world against an ill-defined threat. I mean there isn’t a lot to work with here as a reader. Like, I like the artwork. I really do but there just isn’t any substance for me to grab onto. When you have the means to tell a story it is your obligation to tell one with a purpose. However, I can tell that this team has a lot of passion and really loves their source material and I really want to see them succeed. They obviously have a much larger story to tell and I really wish they would toss in a few more proper nouns and character traits for the protagonist.

text: I would HIGHLY recommend Bettis Floral Inc, located in West Mifflin, PA to anyone looking for flowers for their wedding, or otherwise. I went in before my wedding to speak with the florist and described to him what I wanted. Since my wedding was in the fall, I wanted fall colored flowers, flowers that were available in the fall, straw in my flowers....I wanted it to look like they came from a meadow. He listened to everything I had to say, and offered some choices to me and provided me with some of his ideas. When the day of my wedding came, the flowers arrived on time and they were beautiful. They were exactly what I had imagined. He had picked out a beautiful lily to be included in my bridesmaid's flowers that I wish I had him put in mine....I didn't want lilies in my flowers, but upon seeing the type he chose, I would've changed my mind beforehand. The flowers had the straw and wheat that I wanted, my bouquet style was exactly what I had in mind. The colors of all the flowers he used was absolutely appropriate and the colors I had in mind. They were wonderful to work with, listened very well, and produced flowers that I was proud to display at my wedding. They were reasonably priced for the work that they did, as well. The flowers were delivered on time, they were fresh, and they held up beautifully throughout the whole day. Not one of my flowers wilted by the end of the day.

Sites and Monument Record: Westquarter House Doocot (SMR 55)
This lectern doocot stands near the W end of Dovecot Rd, Westquarter. It is in an excellent state of preservation, the roof having been renewed by Historic Scotland. Slightly oblong in plan, it measures 18 ft 3 ins from E to W by 16 ft 3 ins transversely over walls 2 ft 10 ins thick, and is built of random rubble with dressed quoins and door-rybats. The door is in the centre of the S side, and above this a heavy round perching course runs all round the building. Resting on this above the door is an heraldic panel topped by a small moulded cornice, above which there is a row of three openings for the birds. From the wall head of the S wall the roof slopes up towards the N wall, which is considerably higher, the slope being interrupted to provide space for a further row of sic openings for pigeons. The side walls are crow-stepped to a point about half way up the upper portion of the roof, where they meet the returns of the tabled parapet that tops the N wall. This parapet is finished with scrolls and pilasters, and bears ball finials at the corners. The inner faces of the walls consist wholly of stone built nests, which number 868; they are built in regular rows each about 9 ins high. The floor is laid with bricks, in which a circular setting marks the socket hole of the vanished potence. The armorial stone is fully described in the noted documentation.
