Feb 26, 2019
A cold weather front that consumed the Lower Mainland during the past week and brought a rare snowfall to the downtown core on Sunday, didn’t deter boating enthusiasts from attending the Vancouver International Boat Show this year.
Western Canada’s largest boat show’s attendance numbers at both the indoor show at BC Place and the Floating Show at Granville Island are reported at 28,764 for the 2019 show, compared to 28,739 the previous year.
“Despite unprecedented winds, weekend snowfall and challenging road conditions, the crowd turnout was favorable, and BC’s recreational marine dealers and service providers are cautiously optimistic in advance of the fast approaching boating season,” said Show Manager Eric Nicholl. “By most accounts, exhibitors were greeted by serious buyers, and initial feedback from key markets throughout the Province suggests this year will be relatively stable.”
Snowfall on the Sunday forced the closure of the Floating Show mid-afternoon, and likely contributed to reduced attendance numbers comparable to previous Sunday counts; this year’s Sunday attendance was down 15% compared to 2018, while attendance on the Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday were all up comparative to last year.
On the Saturday, sustained Arctic outflow winds in Howe Sound damaged docks and boats in West Vancouver’s Horseshoe Bay, with nearly a dozen boats breaking loose from Sewell’s marina and washing ashore. BC Ferries sailings were cancelled for a large part of the day making it a challenge for Island-based residents to make their trip to the show.
People travelling from the Interior regions of the BC, specifically from the Okanagan / Kamloops / Merrit area were faced with treacherous driving conditions as mountain passes were under heavy snowfall warnings and advisories.
Weather was a significant factor on overall attendance as nearly 1,000 pre-purchased electronic tickets were not redeemed.
Guests in attendance expressed interest in a wide range of products, including canoes/kayaks/paddleboards, bowriders and fishing boats, ski & wakeboard boats; and even the luxury yachts and cruiser segments.
“The 2019 Boat Show has been positive and we’ve seen sales through a large cross-section of models,” said “Bob Papajohn, President of M&P Mercury Sales. “But, perhaps the most promising aspect of the event has been the enthusiasm of people who are new to boating and are understanding the affordability and ease in which they can get into this activity.”
Yamaha Motors Canada had a similar, positive experience at the Vancouver Boat, according to District Manager of Sales, Steve Cyr, who suggested, “Show attendance and the quality of the crowd has been good.”
Jason Burks of Sundance Yachts was direct in his position on the 2019 show. “This was the most qualified traffic at the Vancouver Boat Show in years. We closed three deals this week on a 46 Prestige, 52 Prestige and the Prestige 680.”
Roderick Roy of SeaNet Co. Inc. experienced his first Vancouver Boat Show, and said the reception from the local boating community was positive, as was the response from potential buyers. “We spoke with many serious buyers who were drawn by the color and unique style of the Navetta 58.”
For retail and service based exhibitors such as Hardeep Gill of Royal City Bedding which specializes in boat seats and seat upholstery, the Show has met expectations. “We have had a good response from customers and have laid the groundwork for what we believe will be promising sales over the next several months.”
Friday and Saturday were favorable for Matt Price of Harbour Chandler. “We put more focus on inflatable boats and fishing tackle and we’re optimistic this will pay off.”
Don Prittie, the General Manager of Canoe Cove Marina Ltd., suggested the event has been a positive experience for himself and fellow exhibitors. He adds, “We received feedback from people who hadn’t paid a visit to the event in several years and commented on its substantial positive change and growth.”
With over 125 combined speakers and presentations, the 2019 event contained a program that was educational, entertaining – and had something for everyone. Featured guests, the cast of Discovery Channel’s Cooper’s Treasure, also proved to be a positive draw for the public.
Dates for the 58th Vancouver International Boat Show are scheduled for February 5 – 9, 2020 at BC Place and Granville Island.
Western Canada’s largest consumer boating event, the Vancouver International Boat Show is owned by the Boating BC Association and produced by Canadian Boat Shows.

It has long been recognised that discretion is vital to good police work. However, in Britain (and many other countries), practices of discretion in the stop and search context have come under much scrutiny as it has widely been linked to racist practices, i.e. a disproportionate amount of Black and minority ethnic individuals are stopped and searched compared to White people. In a bid to counteract the discretionary practices that are seen to be linked to racist stops and searches, police officers are required (in stops and searches under section 1 of the PACE code A) to have ‘reasonable grounds for suspicion’. This article evaluates what has been claimed as the tension between the required reasonable grounds for suspicion and the need to draw on generalisations (police discretion) for effective policing.

When will a vaccine for COVID-19 be available?
In a previous article about COVID-19, we covered everything you need to know about the disease’s signs, symptoms and treatment. Since then, one of the most common questions we’ve received is “when will doctors have a vaccine?”
Currently, doctors are treating COVID-19 with supportive care. That means a patient’s vital signs, such as heart rate, blood pressure, breathing function, and temperature, are monitored and stabilized. It’s up to the patient’s immune system to fight off the virus.
What’s reassuring to know is that 81% of COVID-19 cases are mild. Some people won’t even know that they’re sick. And this is part of the danger. It means groups of people who have a mild form of the illness can easily spread it to people who are at higher risk, like senior citizens, or people with pre-existing health conditions. That’s certainly not to say that these are the only groups at risk — even young healthy people have ended up in hospital.
That’s why social distancing and practicing good hygiene are so important — they’re the best strategy we have to lower the number of new infections. And at this point, there is no cure or vaccine for COVID-19. The good news is that there’s an international effort underway to quickly develop a vaccine. But how long before it’s publicly available? We’ve got the latest facts on the situation here.
What is a vaccine?
There are several types of vaccines, but they all work on the same basic principle. Scientists isolate a virus and make changes to it so it’s no longer harmful to humans. Then, doctors administer the altered pathogen to patients. The patient’s body recognizes the vaccine pathogen as foreign, and develops antibodies to neutralize the threat. If the patient is exposed to the full-fledged version of the virus later on, their body knows how to fight it off.
After developing a prototype vaccine, scientists determine the right dosage to give to patients. Then, the vaccine enters three rounds of testing. First, scientists test the vaccine on healthy people with low risk of complications. Then, they test the vaccine on its intended patient group, such as children in the case of the chickenpox vaccine. Finally, scientists test the vaccine on a wide range of individuals from various geographic locations and lifestyles. After all this testing is complete, the vaccine is distributed. Scientists continue to test the vaccine on an ongoing basis to ensure it’s still working properly and is not causing unintentional complications.
Timeline for a COVID-19 vaccine
The World Health Organization estimates that a vaccine for COVID-19 will be ready in 12-18 months. There are currently 11 vaccine formulations in wide-scale efficacy trials. While 12-18 months might sound like a long time, it’s actually pretty speedy for vaccine development. Most vaccines hit the market after 5-15 years of development and testing. If scientists can achieve their goal of 12 months, it will be an impressive feat.
Over 35 companies and academic institutions are currently working on developing a COVID-19 vaccine. The Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI), and the World Health Organization are helping to coordinate and accelerate these efforts.
Since the novel coronavirus shares genetic similarities with SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Disease) and MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome), scientists have a head start towards a COVID-19 vaccine. They can leverage the existing body of research on previous coronaviruses to develop a vaccine faster.
There are two drugs that have received media attention for their potential in treating COVID-19 patients. The first is Remedsivir, which is used to treat Ebola. The second, Chloroquine, is an anti-malaria drug.
Chloroquine has seen modest results in helping patients with COVID-19 recover quicker by preventing the coronavirus from attaching to lung cells. However, the FDA advises against the use of chloroquine outside of hospital settings or clinical trials as it may cause heart rhythm problems.
Remedsivir has been used in compassionate care, for when patients have few options left. Some patients who’ve taken it have shown great recoveries. The medication works by interfering with RNA replication within the coronavirus.
More testing is needed to confirm the long-term effectiveness and safety of both these drugs. In the meantime, we’ve listed below the best steps to protect yourself from catching COVID-19.
The best solution for now
Following community guidelines like physical distancing and frequent hand washing is the best thing you can do to stop the spread of COVID-19.
According to epidemiologists, if it were possible to wave a magic wand and make all North Americans freeze in place for 14 days while sitting six feet apart, the whole pandemic would sputter to a halt. The virus would die on every contaminated surface, and everyone carrying the virus would display concrete symptoms.
In lieu of standing still for two weeks, you can do your part to stop the spread of COVID-19 by staying at home and following official health recommendations:
- Wash your hands regularly, for at least 20 seconds each time.
- Avoid leaving your home for non-essential trips.
- Practice physical distancing.
- Take steps to boost your immune system.
If you’re feeling sick, it’s important to take extra precautions in addition to the above:
- Cover your cough with a tissue or elbow.
- Visit a healthcare professional virtually or call your local public health authority. Try to avoid in person facilities unless you are experiencing severe symptoms.
- Monitor your symptoms for 14 days, even if they’re mild.
- Wear a face mask when around other people.
Scientists are working around the clock to develop a vaccine for COVID-19, but unfortunately we can’t expect a finished product for at least 12 months. By that point, the coronavirus pandemic may be long behind us. In the case of SARS and MERS, vaccines for both illnesses were in development, but production halted when the outbreaks were eventually contained.
In the meantime, it’s important to self-isolate, monitor yourself for symptoms and practice good hygiene. We as a community are the best bet to suppress COVID-19.

There’s something truly magical about Christmas. Filled with remarkable true stories of the kindness of strangers and the blessings of answered prayers, this collection with its small miracles truly captures the spirit of the season.
These stories of hope, faith, and joy are a moving tribute to the true meaning of Christmas and remind us all that the greatest gifts in life can’t be gift wrapped.
Deirdre woke early, just like every December 25. She tiptoed downstairs, hoping against hope that this would be the year her dream would come true. Her parents were already awake and seated at the kitchen table; that fact alone gave the young girl pause, as they were never downstairs on Christmas morning until much later.
“Morning, sleepy head,” Ben, Deirdre’s father said. “‘Bout time you rolled outa the hay!” When Nancy, Deirdre’s mother, tried to hide her giggle behind her coffee cup, Deirdre knew something was up.
So began the short story—or some variation—that I wrote every year growing up. It was my dream to walk downstairs Christmas morning and find a paint horse tied outside the picture window. I, like most girls, was obsessed with horses. Usually, that obsession passes like any other fad. Mine didn’t. In fact, it set down roots so firm that not even marriage to a “nonhorse” man could pull them up.
Every year I wrote a similar story, “Dreaming of My Paint Horse,” and gave it to my parents, hoping that they would get the hint. It seemed they never would. Every year I looked out the picture window to find an empty yard and disappointment, a vacant space where my horse ought to be.
We were never deprived as kids, far from it. But I’d have gladly relinquished every toy, every item of clothing, even every horse statue and book for that Dream Horse.
My childhood passed, as did many of my interests. Tennis? Too much work. Knitting? Knot! Horses? Now that was the constant passion in my life. I read about them, wrote about them and even joined a 4-H club that taught about them. Of course, I also dreamed about them. My own horse, though, was always out of reach.

Even if you think you can't paint, you can paint this sweet Valentine's gift box. And the materials, less than $5. [video]
At some point when you were a kid, you probably made some artwork by blowing paint around on paper using a straw. These Halloween loot bags feature the same technique, but with a much more sophisticated result. Brown paper lunch bags are the very simple (and cheap!) base, and India ink creates the blackest black, spooky branches.
MATERIALS + TOOLS
+ Paper lunch bags (available at dollar stores and supermarkets)
+ India ink (available for about $2 from art supply stores)
+ A straw
+ Hole punch (optional)
+ Ribbon (optional)
Before you start, lay down some newsprint or other scrap paper to protect your work surface.
Dip the end of the straw in India ink and use it to draw a line along the bottom of the paper bag. Wipe off any excess ink from the straw, then blow through it at the ink, directing the ink across the bag. (Starting with a line up the side of the bag also looks cool.)
It takes some testing and practice to get a nice branching effect, so be sure to have extra bags or scrap paper to experiment with. And pace yourself — I got some serious head rushes from blowing through the straw so much!
Set aside to dry and repeat for each bag.
Once dry, fill the bags with candy or other spooky loot as desired.
To finish off each loot bag, fold over the top, punch two holes and thread through some ribbon, tying a bow. (I used a combination of black tulle, orange satin, and gold glitter ribbon.)
It seems to be all about paint this week! Here are three DIY projects I pinned that each use paint to create gift containers.
* Spray-painted cookie tins: turn those tacky tins into stylish ones with a bit of paint. By Cynthia Shaffer. I'd be inclined to leave the tins just a plain colour, without adding the extra decorations. Maybe just tie ribbon around them.
* DIY glitter gift bag. This time paint dresses up a plain muslin bag. By Jenny of Hank + Hunt on The Sweetest Occasion blog. Also includes instructions on how to switch out the bag tie if you don't like the colour the bag comes with.


Islamabad, May 06, 2014 (PPI-OT): “The present government was committed to address the issue of power shortage in the country and would encourage the local and foreign investment in energy”. Prime Minister Muhammad Nawaz Sharif said this while addressing at the inauguration ceremony of Port Qasim Thermal Power plant today at Karachi.
Dr Ishrat ul Ebad Khan, Governor Sindh, Syed Qaim Ali Shah, CM Sindh , Abid Sher Ali, MOS For Water and Power, H.E. Sun Weidong, Chinese Ambassador in Pakistan, H.E. Sayar Abdul Rehman Al-Mawadah, Qatar Ambassador in Pakistan, Mr. Fan Jixiang, Chairman Power China , H.E. Sheikh Jasim, Chairman Al Mirqab , Kamran Michael, Minister For Ports And Shipping and Ghulam Murtaza Jatoi, Minister of Industries and Production were also present at the inauguration ceremony.
“We will eliminate darkness from this country soon “, the Prime Minister said. The Prime Minister further said his government did not waste a single day during the last eleven months and the current 660 MW project, which is the first phase of 1320 MW power project, reflected the commitment of the government to address the energy issue.
Prime Minister Sharif said after coming into power he utilized most of his time to get the country out of energy crisis through consultation with experts, which shows the government’s priorities. He said the current project was the result of government’s untiring efforts, which was planned during the last eleven months and today it is being implemented.
The Prime Minister said that the present government conceived this project, removed all the hurdles and started it in a short period of time. The Prime Minister said he had no doubt in his mind from the very first day of his government that realizing the dream of socio-economic development was impossible without addressing the issue of energy.
“The severity of this crisis required day and night work on power projects, so that we could replace the darkness with lights”, he remarked. He said the ground-breaking of this power project at Port Qasim has a special significance due to the importance of Karachi in Pakistan’s economy.
The Prime Minister said the government would raise the power generation to 21000 MW. He further said that since the production of electricity from the coal fired power plants was cheaper, ten coal fired power projects with a capacity of 660 MW each are being initiated at Gadani in Balochistan, which would add a total of 6600 MW electricity in the national grid.
He said that 3500 MW electricity would be generated from Diamer Bhasha Dam in Gilgit Baltistan and 950 MW of electricity would be available from the Neelum Jhelum power project next year. He also referred to other power projects such as a 1320 MW project at Jamshoro as well as the planned power projects at Rahim Yar Khan, Muzaffargarh, Sahiwal and Jhang.
The Prime Minister said that this journey continued at rapid pace and they laid the foundation for power generation in the next five years, greater than the total power produced in the countries Whole history. The 1320 MW project is also a part of this series. In the first phase coal-fired 660 MW power would be generated.
He said that with the coal-fired power generation, the cost of electricity would be reduced, enabling the general public to get electricity according to their purchasing power. “It is our desire that we should have not only ample power at our disposal but also a cost-effective one so that a large populace can get relief,” he added.
Prime Minister said it was a matter of immense pleasure for him that Power China Company and Qatar’s Al Mirqab Capital have collaborated to initiate this project. The projected time of completion was 2017 and looking at the past performances of the companies, PM said that the project would be completed ahead of the scheduled time.
“These energy projects are result of our successful foreign policy which also shows the consistency perseverance in the Pak- China relationship. These are early harvest projects and will bear fruit in short time. Pak-China friendship will play a crucial role in stabilizing the economy of Pakistan as well as bringing peace and prosperity in the region,” he added.
About Qatar’s cooperation in the energy sector, the Prime Minister said that it was also very crucial and hopefully this project would further strengthen the relationship between the two Countries.
“People knew when we took responsibility of running the government, what was the situation on ground. The people are very well aware of the fact how we are working day and night to overcome the crises,” PM said.
The Prime Minister also said that a common Pakistani could very well discern between the past and the present. It was a matter of satisfaction for him that the people were hoping for the betterment and the rewards of good governance. He further said that Nandipur Thermal Power Project which had been stalled for a long time was put on track for completion which would add 425 MW power in the system.
The work on Neelum-Jhelum hydro-power project had been expedited and after completion in 2016, 969 MW electricity would be available adding the expansion work on Tarbela iv and v projects would be accomplished in 2017 with total production of 2760 MW power.
The Prime Minister said that the project of Motorway initiated by his government during the 1990s and has benefited the people of Pakistan a lot and those who were critical of the Motorway project at that time later appreciated it. The Prime Minister thanked Power China and Al Mirqab Company for trusting government policies and investing in Pakistan.

There is a lot of advice about whether or not it is safe to drink herbal tea in pregnancy, and about all the reasons you should drink certain herbal teas in pregnancy. Unfortunately, much of the advice about tea and pregnancy is conflicting, conservative, defensive, or over exaggerated. It can be confusing to know if you should drink herbal teas or not. In this article I will explain the concerns and teas to avoid and also shed light on the potential benefits of herbal tea and their proper use. (The term “herbal tea” usually refers to an infusion of plants (often herbs or fruits) made without using the tea plant. These are also referred to as “herbal infusions.”)
When is it unsafe to drink herbal tea in pregnancy?
There are safety concerns regarding herbal teas because herbal teas contain pharmacologically active constituents. In other words, they can stimulate or inhibit biological activity and can also interact with other drugs.
The primary reason herbal teas are unsafe during pregnancy is their interactions with other drugs. If you are taking other drugs it may be unsafe to drink certain herbal teas. Any tea you are taking regularly should be discussed with your doctor or pharmacist, and you may also ask them for a list of teas that could interact with any drug you are taking.
Some herbal teas can, by themselves, cause actions that are unsafe. This is rare, and applies only to certain teas that are properly prepared in order to extract their biologically active components, and taken in quantities that can cause harm. Caution is more necessary when taking a tea regularly or intentionally for medicinal purposes.
Some women are simply concerned with the safety of having a cup of herbal tea with breakfast or after dinner. Most herbal teas commonly used for pleasure drinking are safe in pregnancy, both because the herbal teas themselves are safe even in larger doses, and because a considerable amount of herbal tea – several cups daily over a few days – is necessary to achieve a medicinal effect. The few herbal teas that can be toxic in small amounts taste bad and are not commonly served. I recommend moderation and variety as safeguards for any problems that could arise with excessive use of commonly served herbal teas such as mint, orange, chamomile, ginger, and lemon. Licorice root may be worth extra caution. Licorice root is sometimes found in tea blends, and is should be avoided due its steroid-like properties.
Other women are concerned about caffeine when they ask about tea and pregnancy. Black, green, yellow, oolong, and white tea do contain caffeine unless they are specifically label decaffeinated or caffeine free (because the caffeine has been removed). Herbals teas do not contain caffeine. Red, or Rooibus, tea is actually considered an herbal tea and so is also caffeine free. The amount of caffeine in tea varies, although teas typically have less caffeine than coffee. Caffeine should be limited during pregnancy, but does not need to be eliminated. These teas are healthful beverages with beneficial antioxidants. In moderation they are OK during pregnancy, and if you have a caffeine dependency using these teas to step your caffeine intake down is a great option. It is important to drink plenty of plain water when drinking these teas because non-herbal teas encourage the body to get rid of water.
If you are interested in using teas for medicinal purposes or to promote health (herbal or otherwise) it is more crucial to understand the action of the teas in use. Teas may be very beneficial! But respect for the power of plants and knowledge about their use is important.
Most herbal teas are not well researched, so the information available on safety is primarily anecdotal. This is one reason why herbal tea advice is often conservative. Safety has not been proven through research, and therefore practitioners will not recommend an herbal tea that they can’t guarantee is safe. If the potential for benefit is very low this makes sense, but many herbal teas may provide a significant benefit which might be lost due to caution.
Information on the nutritional composition of herbal teas is readily available. Many herbal teas have a valuable nutritional role.
While there are few double-blind randomized trials regarding herbal tea efficacy or safety, there is a wealth of traditional knowledge about herbal tea use. The use of herbal tea and pregnancy is part of a strong tradition of women’s health wisdom. Midwives and others have been using herbal tea beneficially since early history. If you are comfortable looking to traditional wisdom for information about the benefits and risks of various teas, and how to use them effectively, there is a wealth of information to glean. One of my favorite books sharing traditional wisdom about herbal tea and pregnancy is Susan Weed’s Wise Woman Herbal for the Childbearing Year. This book will share information on the safe and effective use of herbal teas for health promotion and herbal medicine during the childbearing year from conception through breastfeeding.
Safe and Unsafe Herbal Teas During Pregnancy
Red raspberry leaf is the herb most often recommended for the healthful use of herbal tea and pregnancy. There was one double-blind, placebo controlled study done in Australia on the use of red raspberry leaf tea in pregnancy which found that drinking the herbal tea causes no negative effects on mothers or infants, and that those who drank the herbal tea pushed for less time then those who did not. There was also a 30% reduction in the use of forceps in the group of women who drank the herbal tea, and a slight decrease in the rate of C-sections*. I felt wonderful drinking this herbal tea, along with nettles, for my health during and after pregnancy. They did wonders for my constipation! I have many clients who have used them and feel they were very beneficial. Women have shared stories with me of the problems they have when they stop drinking these herbal teas for a week or more during pregnancy – bloating, constipation, and decreased energy.
Other Nourishing Herbs
Alfalfa, barley, borage, nettles, oatstraw, parsley, and red clover are other herbs that are regarded as nourishing and safe for regular use during pregnancy. In order to reap the nourishing benefits of herbal teas they must be properly prepared. As a general guide herbal teas with a strong smell when you crush the leaves are high in essential oils. These herbal teas, such as mint and lemon, only need to be steeped for 3-5 min, where as many others need to be steeped for 20 minutes or even several hours depending both on the plant and the part of the plant used. Herbal teas can be purchased in bulk (Starwest Botanicals and Mountain Rose Herbs are great), or bags (Earth Mama Angel Baby sells herbal teas specifically for pregnancy).
There are various herbal tea suggestions throughout Mara’s World as you explore the articles related to pregnancy discomforts, postpartum healing, and even helping with baby problems such as baby acne. Wherever a specific use is recommended instructions are also given.
Potentially Toxic or Harmful Teas
In addition to any herbal tea that interacts with drugs you are taking, these herbal teas are generally regarded as unsafe during pregnancy: pennyroyal, poke, blue or black cohosh, cayenne, cotton, dong quai, licorice, Lobelia, mistletoe, St. Johns wort, and tansy. There may be others. Educate yourself on any specific herbal tea you are planning to take regularly or in medicinal quantities. The Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database and Natural Standard are two very good resources for information on herbs. It is also helpful to find a local practitioner in naturopathic or herbal medicine who is familiar with pregnancy.
Why is this so different than advice I read on other web sites?
The primary reason so many web sites caution against herbal teas is because safety is not proven. There simply is not enough research on their safety or their effectiveness. However it is also important to realize that there is a deep disrespect or disbelief in alternative ways of knowing. Herbal knowledge is largely an area of knowledge passed down from one person to another. Women healers and midwives who have used these herbs for generations historically went through periods of persecution. This is related to why skepticism, disrespect, fear, and sensationalized support of herbal use find expression in our culture today. You may find that using herbal tea during pregnancy feels uncomfortable for you because of the lack of research or that it is a meaningful act of connecting with a tradition of knowledge you are proud to keep alive. Perhaps you will have both feelings at the same time. You are certainly entitled to either response, and all the options in between, and I support you in following your intuition combined with the knowledge you gain as you continue your exploration of herbal tea and pregnancy.

From Imperial Spain: 1469-1716, by J. H. Elliott (Penguin, 2002), 2nd ed., Kindle Loc. 2057-2076:
In spite of the increasingly grave problem of the national food supply, Ferdinand and Isabella adopted no vigorous measures to stimulate corn production. On the contrary, it was in their reign that the long-continuing struggle between sheep and corn was decisively resolved in favour of the sheep. The great expansion of the mediaeval wool trade had revitalized the economic life of Castile, but there inevitably came a point at which further encouragement of Castilian wool production could only be given at the expense of sacrificing agriculture. This point was reached in the reign of the Catholic Kings. The importance of the wool trade to the Castilian economy, and the value to the royal treasury of the servicio y montazgo, the tax paid the Crown by the sheep-farmers, naturally prompted Ferdinand and Isabella to pursue the policies of their predecessors and to take the Mesta under their special protection. As a result, a whole series of ordinances conferred upon it wide privileges and enormous favours, culminating in the famous law of 1501 by which all land on which the migrant flocks had even once been pastured was reserved in perpetuity for pasturage, and could not be put to any other uses by its owner. This meant that great tracts of land in Andalusia and Estremadura were deprived of all chance of agricultural development and subjected to the whim of the sheepowners. The aims of this policy were obvious enough. The wool trade was easily subjected to monopolistic control, and, as a result, it constituted a fruitful source of revenue to a Crown which, since 1484, had found itself in increasing financial difficulties, exacerbated by the flight of Jewish capital. An alliance between Crown and sheepowners was thus mutually beneficial for both: the Mesta, with its 2½ to 3 million sheep, basked in the warm sunshine of royal favours while the Crown, whose control of the Military Orders gave it some of the best pasturing lands in Spain, could draw a regular income from it, and turn to it for special contributions in emergencies.
There were no doubt certain unintended advantages to Castile, in the intense royal encouragement of the wool industry. Sheep-farming requires less labour than arable farming, and the vast extent of the pasture-lands helped to produce a surplus of manpower which made it easier for Castile to raise armies and to colonize the New World. But on the whole the favouring of sheep-farming at the expense of tillage can only appear as a wilful sacrifice of Castile’s long-term requirements to considerations of immediate convenience. It was in the reign of Ferdinand and Isabella that agriculture was confirmed in its unhappy position as the Cinderella of the Castilian economy, and the price which was eventually to be paid for this was frighteningly high.

The term for awareness in Tibetan means "the knowledge that realizes egolessness through awareness." Awareness brings egolessness because there is no object of awareness. You are aware of the whole thing completely, of you and other and of the activities of you and other at the same time. So everything is open. There is no particular object of awareness. If you're smart enough, you might ask the question," Who is being aware of the whole thing?" That's a very interesting question, the sixty-four-dollar question. And the answer is, nobody is being aware of anything but itself. The razor blade cuts itself. The sun shines by itself. Fire burns by itself. Water flows by itself. Nobody watches -- and that is the very primitive level of egolessness.

POMPEY will aim to send Alex Bass out on loan next season.
And Kenny Jackett has backed the Blues youngster to become a top keeper after he was handed a new deal.
Pompey have taken up a club option to give the academy graduate a fresh contract, as they announced their retained list yesterday.
It ties down the 20-year-old in a campaign in which he has operated as Luke McGee’s understudy.
With a lack of alternative options, Bass was kept at the club after they initially considered sending him out on loan.
Jackett, who is looking to bring in an experienced keeper, explained that would be his preference moving forward.
The boss said: ‘It’s been a frustrating season for Alex to a degree.
‘He’s had to play second to fiddle to McGee.
‘Stephen Henderson was brought in halfway through the season so he could go out on loan and get some experience.
‘Obviously, the injury changed that and then we didn’t have time to react.
‘That would be the ideal (to go out on loan). I think he needs that. He’s improved but it comes down to games.
‘I’ve got a lot of time for him and I think he will continue to get physically stronger. When he does I think he’s going to be one hell of a keeper.’
Bass picked up a clean sheet last weekend on his league bow, a fact Jackett believes will lift his spirits.
He added: ‘I was very pleased with him against Peterborough.
‘It was good for him to get a taste in a win with a clean sheet. That should give him confidence going into the summer.
‘He has a good temperament and, as he gets stronger, he’ll improve.’

My brother Dave’s fiancee, Kim, turns 24 today, and we’re celebrating at their house with a garden party!
In keeping with the theme, I made finger sandwiches: pimiento cheese on thin-sliced sourdough baguette. I usually bake my own bread, but there’s no way mine could be as yummy as this fluffy, chewy, delicious stuff from Luna Baking here in Athens.
And the gorgeous lime green dish was my Christmas gift from the birthday girl. It may be a pie pan, but I think it makes a lovely serving vessel for these yummy bites. 🙂

Rosh & the Blind Cafe Orchestra
Since 2010, Rosh & The Blind Cafe Orchestra has specialized in performing in the complete and total pitch dark at Blind Cafe events across the USA. Rosh, an American songwriter, born in Boston, MA, stumbled upon a temporary 'cafe in the dark' while on tour in 2007 in Reykjavik Iceland. It was so dark, he could not even see his hands in front of his face. It was then that he dreamed up the idea of creating positive social change experiences in the dark, intended to help people 'see' their world from a new perspective.
In 2010, the first Blind Cafe event was launched with the formation of The Blind Cafe Orchestra accompanying Rosh's original songwriter music. The Blind Cafe Orchestra, is an evolving group of orchestral musicians, consisting of cello, violin, viola, female vocals and more. This rare and unique approach to listening to music in the dark, with an array of orchestral strings and various instrumentation, has led them to perform for over 10,000 people in the dark since 2010.

So Bioware co-founder Dr. Ray Muzyka released a statement today in regards to the outcry from the fans about the ending of Mass Effect 3. He adresses the fact that even the most loyal Mass Effect fans felt negative emotions about the ending of the third installment in the series. He states that “Our first instinct is to defend our work and point to the high ratings offered by critics – but out of respect to our fans, we need to accept the criticism and feedback with humility.” He also says that the Bioware team is currently working on ” a number of game content initiatives that will help answer the questions, providing more clarity for those seeking further closure to their journey.” Muzyka says that we will hear more about this content in April, and that they also plan on releasing new game content and even full length games set in the Mass Effect universe in the future. He goes on to state that they are looking for constructive criticism from fans so that our questions may be answered.
I was personally delighted to read this. I am very glad to hear that Bioware understands our concerns and that they wish to answer our questions about the ending of the game. One of my main issues with the ending, personally, was the fact that there were so many unanswered questions. These questions weren’t even minuscule issues that could be looked over, they were major and left me with an empty/confused feeling after it was over. Being a huge fan of the Mass Effect series, this did hurt a little bit. People are even creating theories such as the “Indoctrination Theory” in order to get some kind of answer to their confusion. I’m hoping that the content that was mentioned will answer all the main questions and make this game whole.
All in all, Mass Effect 3 was an amazing game. Game of the year, hands down, no contest. But I really would like to see some answers about the ending. All rage aside, I’d just like to be at peace with my favorite game to date.

House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) has said the chamber’s appropriators are considering a stopgap budget measure that would keep the government funded at current levels, Federal Times reported Tuesday.
Andy Medici writes Hoyer told reporters that House Appropriations Committee Chairman Harold Rogers (R-Ky.) and Ranking Member Nita Lowey (D-N.Y.) have discussed a continuing resolution that aligns with a spending deal that was passed in December.
A Republican congressional staffer predicts the CR would let government operating on this fiscal year’s budget levels through December, according to the publication.
Hoyer believes House and Senate lawmakers could pass legislation to avert a shutdown before the end of this month.

In an attempt to get folks in Washington vaccinated for COVID-19, the state Liquor and Cannabis Board has authorized licensed weed shops to gift a free joint to card-bearing members of the vaccinated populace.
The Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board announced Monday that the promotion, called "Joints for Jabs," was effective immediately and would run through July 12. During the afforded time period, state-licensed cannabis retailers are permitted to give one free pre-rolled joint to customers who are 21 or older when they receive their first or second dose of a COVID-19 vaccine at an active, on-site vaccination clinic. Customers can only claim the complimentary joint from the retail location during the same visit as receiving the jab, according to the board.
The weed in Washington is really good and COVID is still doing its thing in the great white north, this may be more effective than a lottery where no one understands the tax rules but suspects the government just gets their cash back.
If they start offering free poutine or a Dick's Deluxe to folks with a vaccination card, you could have a pretty great afternoon!

RIVERSIDE, Calif. (KABC) -- The families of several inmates who died in the Riverside County jail system last year have filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the county and Sheriff Chad Bianco.
The lawsuit comes after 18 inmates died in Riverside County jails in 2022, the most in one year since 12 inmates died in the county jail system back in 2005.
According to the lawsuit, the defendants "deliberately failed to take even modest actions to prevent in custody deaths at the Riverside County correctional facilities."
"This is a county that locks away people, throws away the key and then covers up deaths," attorney Christian Contreras said at a news conference in front of the federal courthouse in Riverside, surrounded by several family members of the deceased.
"(Sheriff) Chad Bianco talks about law and order right? Law and order applies to all aspects of this county including how the jails are being ran," Contreras said.
The lawsuit alleges several federal charges against the county, including failure to protect from harm, failure to provide medical care, supervisory liability causing constitutional violations and negligence.
The mother of Richard Matus, Jr., an inmate who was awaiting trial for attempted murder charges but was found dead in his cell over the summer, spoke out at the news conference as well.
"It was my granddaughter's first day of school when he died, and when she came home I had to tell her the news," said Lisa Matus, whose other son is also currently in custody facing attempted murder charges related to the same incident.
"What do you expect when you go to jail? Well, the expectations when going to jail shouldn't be that you die," Matus said.
According to the lawsuit, the coroner's report ruled that Matus, Jr. died of an "accidental overdose."
Bianco did not comment on the current lawsuit, but did speak with Eyewitness News about Matus, Jr.'s death last summer.
"We did nothing wrong," Bianco said at the time. "He chose to do drugs while he was in custody and we were not able to revive him when he overdosed."
According to the lawsuit, of the 18 inmates who died in the Riverside County jail system last year, five deaths were due to drug overdoses; four were from natural causes; two were suicides; two were homicides; one death was ruled an accident.
Three of the deaths are still awaiting autopsy results.
Attorney Denisse Gastelum said one of the main problems in the Riverside County jail system is the lack of proper and consistent safety and welfare checks on the inmates.
"What's required at a minimum for the general (jail) population, is for every hour on the hour, for deputies to walk by each and every one of the cells, look into the cells," said Gastelum, who alleges that the standard of care is far below that requirement.
"I have interviewed inmate witnesses already. They tell me out of the 24 times a day that these title 15 checks have to be occurring, they see deputies walking by once or twice (per day).
That means for 22 hours those folks being incarcerated aren't being checked."
The lawsuit comes on the heels of the California attorney general announcing a civil rights investigation into the Riverside County Sheriff's Department's practices after deaths in the county jails hit a two-decade high.
"It is time for us to shine a light on the Riverside County sheriff's office and its practices," Attorney General Rob Bonta said.
Bonta called the allegations of misconduct "deeply concerning," although he said no specific incidents were a tipping point to prompt the civil rights investigation.

The findings from this year's survey of fundraising and finance professionals in the charity sector are extremely timely – coming out just days before the budget. Managing in the 'new normal': Adapting to uncertainty reveals a picture where charities are being remarkably resilient and even more innovative in their approach to fundraising as economic conditions continue to be incredibly tough.
Austerity is biting, statutory funding is rolling back and welfare cuts are cutting into people's incomes and everyday lives. However, the latest in the 'managing in a downturn' series has shown some pleasing signs that charities are adjusting to this environment, and importantly that morale in the sector may be improving as people become more used to operating in it.
In the 2012 report we introduced the concept of managing in the new normal. Nearly 12 months on the characteristics of this new normal remain very relevant, and it's clear they are likely to continue for some time yet.
The research with our partners PwC and the Charity Finance Group (CFG) shows a fundraising environment that remains very challenging. The vast majority of the 400 members of the institute who responded to the survey are telling us loud and clear that they expect it to get even tougher in the coming year.
Last year's survey highlighted falling statutory funding and increased demand for services and that looks set to continue. This year nine out of 10 charities (93%) have said the fundraising environment has got tougher. More than two-thirds (67%) reported an increase in demand for their services. Over half of the charities that responded (58%) indicated that government policies have had a negative impact on their funding levels during 2012.
At the same time, the sector is clearly adapting and responding flexibly to the challenges. Charities are expanding trading activity and exploring merger. Nearly two-thirds (63%) of charities are planning to use their reserves, and a fifth are seriously considering merger, or have already made the decision to merge. So long as these moves are being taken strategically, for the interest of each charity's beneficiaries, these are exactly the right moves to make.
Interestingly, fewer donors are ceasing to donate to their favourite charities – surely a sign not just that people are adapting to the new normal, but that fundraisers are doing a better job at continuing to secure their support for vital causes.
We know that strategic investment in fundraising is essential if a charity is going to sustain and grow its impact. It is therefore incredibly positive that even in these difficult economic times almost two-thirds of charities are increasing their fundraising activity, and over half are exploring new fundraising options.
We also know that investing in fundraising training works. We have a growing body of evidence, which shows that those small charities that have come on our training programmes have now successfully attracted new sources of income.
The institute's 350 charity members brought in over £6 billion last year in voluntary income towards charitable causes. They know that investment in fundraising, and investment in fundraising training, works. At the same time some smaller charities struggle to find that investment. That is why we are calling for the government to continue to invest in fundraising training for small charities, so they can continue to provide and develop services for vulnerable communities.
Key survey findings
Of the 427 charities that responded to the survey:
93% reported that fundraising had got tougher
58% reported that government policy had resulted in a negative impact on funding levels
67% said there had been an increase in demand for services and 73% expected an increase in 2013
64% planned to increase fundraising during 2013
56% said they would explore new fundraising options
50% had taken steps to reduce salary costs during 2012, including restructure or redundancies
21% were considering merger or had merged
63% were planning or considering dipping into reserves
55% had increased trading or social enterprise activity since the start of the downturn.

Season 12 (The Knockouts Premiere)
The knockout rounds began Monday night and the contestants were throwing out all the punches they could with the hopes of securing a ticket to the live playoffs! Instead of having a key advisor for the knockout rounds, the artists that were competing against each other sat in on their opponents rehearsal to see exactly what they would be going up against. This definitely increased the pressure on each contestant, but at least they could make adjustments to the their song to put them one step above their opponent. Monday night got started with a performance that I believe is the best in the history of The Voice!
Chris Blue “Superstition” vs. Quizz Swanigan “Chains”
Two things happened as I watched Chris perform. I couldn’t stop smiling and I was in complete awe of the notes he was singing and the way he moved across the stage. I agree 100% with Blake: Chris Blue will win this season of The Voice. He is unstoppable. His voice gets better with each performance (which is almost impossible because of how good he is to begin with) and the way he performs is on a different level than anyone else who is or has been on the show. Gwen mentioned that she is his biggest fan, but I’d have to disagree and say that I am his biggest fan. Quizz definitely had his work cut out for him, but he delivered an incredible performance as well. His vocals and performance were on point and the fact that he is 13 is unbelieveable. I get annoyed when the coaches focus on contestants age and the fact that they are young, but when it comes to Quizz, a majority of other 13 year olds couldn’t imagine doing what he is doing, and on top of that he’s KILLING every performance. I’m not sure how he truly feels when he’s on stage, but he looks way more comfortable than I ever was. Quizz held his own against Chris but unfortunately even that wasn’t enough to give him the upper hand. Alicia chose Chris as the winner (Obviously my winner of this knockout is Chris too. I may have a man crush on him...) BUT Gwen hit her STEAL button for Quizz, removing his feeling of disappointment after only a few seconds. Wow. What an incredible way to start the knockouts!
Autumn Turner “Respect” vs. Hanna Eyre “Bleeding Love”
I’ve got mad respect (pun intended) for Autumn after hearing her sing this Aretha Franklin classic. With that being said, I would tell most contestants to stay away from Aretha. It’s tough to bring something new to such a classic son. Plus the listener can’t help but compare her rendition to the original. Autumn delivered a great vocal performance, but I didn’t feel like it was enough to push her through to the Live Playoffs. Hanna took center stage next and belted out the Leona Lewis hit with such ease. There were a few notes that were a little under the correct pitch but her great moments definitely outweighed those few notes. Hanna is going to continue to grow and develop as she continues to get more and more comfortable on The Voice stage. Like Adam, my winner of this knockout was Hanna. The live playoffs are a whole different experience compared to the episodes that are pre-taped. Best of luck, Hanna!
Hunter Plake “I Want to Know What Love Is” vs. Johnny Gates “Million Reasons”
I’ve said this before and I’ll continue to say it: the tone of Hunter’s voice is amazing. He reminds me of Chris Martin from Coldplay and he sings with so much emotion. He brought an older song to 2017 in a very creative way, showcasing his artistry and ability to modernize any song. Considering I sing a lot in my falsetto, I really appreciate the way he approaches that part of his voice. He floats effortlessly from his belt to his higher register, but the musical choices he makes never sound out of place. On the other hand, Johnny’s performance of Lady Gaga’s newest single was really solid. He hit every note and owned the stage as he surprised us with a few of his own embellishments to the melody. There’s no denying his talent and vocal ability, but unfortunately Hunter gave a really solid performance as well, and for me he took the upper hand in this particular situation. Gwen also gave the win to Hunter. That’s the crappy thing about competition, sometimes both sides are really good but there can only be one winner. Johnny, congratulations on a great run. I’m looking forward to seeing what you do next. Hunter, I’ll see you in the Live Playoffs!
Casi Joy “My Church” vs. Felicia Temple “My Heart Will Go On”
Maren Morris is a current favorite of mine, so I was pumped to see that Casi chose to sing this particular song. During the performance she was able to showcase the rock edginess to her voice, where as before she showcased more of that classic country sound. It was cool seeing her play guitar and her performance was super energetic. We saw a different side of Casi during this performance and it seemed like she was in her sweet spot because she sang her butt off! Felicia’s performance couldn’t have been any different from Casi’s. She came out in an elegant outfit and delivered the Celine Dion classic beautifully. Like Autumn, I would normally tell people to stay away from powerhouse vocalists like Aretha and Celine, but Felicia pulled it off! She hit every note with ease and her performance was packed full of emotion. She didn’t sing it much different from the original but she nailed the performance, which is tough to do when you are singing such a big song. Because they both come from Team Blake, I think Casi had the upper hand in this pairing. Blake probably wouldn’t say it, but he is definitely going to gravitate to that classic country sound than any other genre of music. Blake chose Casi as the winner of this knockout and I can’t argue with that. Both delivered a great performance, which made the decision extra tough!
Johnny Hayes “Statesboro Blues” vs. Josh West “Carry On Wayward Son”
I put Johnny up there with Chris Blue as two of the most comfortable performers of this season. He effortlessly worked the entire stage while delivering a killer vocal performance. There wasn’t one bad thing about what he did. Every vocal decision he made was spot on and the way he sang made you think he was belting out one of his own original songs. My voice was hurting just watching him belt some of those high screamy notes that are somehow on pitch. It’s pretty incredible! Josh had the tough task of following Johnny but he was definitely up for the challenge. Josh gave a great performance and there is no denying his talent. However, maybe it’s the fact that i’m not a big fan of classic rock music, but I thought Johnny gave better performance. Josh worked the stage and left it all out there, but it was a bit too showy for my taste. Again, this is probably just a personal preference thing, so i’m not trying to take away from the fact that Josh is super talented. I gave the knockout win to Johnny but Adam chose to keep Josh in the competition.
Ashley Levin “Fancy” vs. Lilli Passero “Tears Dry on Their Own”
Ashley definitely didn’t take the easy way out with her song choice! There are SO many words in “Fancy” and she clearly said each words without faltering once. Her vocals were powerful and she truly did showcase that country/soul thing that she has going on. There was one note towards the end of her performance that sounded a little shaky, but other than that she nailed it. She looked super comfortable on stage and stayed in the pocket of the song the whole time (which is hard to do when you are singing as many words as she was). Lilli gave us the last performance of the evening and the one word that kept coming to my mind as I watched her was “mature”. Like Ashley, she was comfortable on stage and the way she performed paired with what she was wearing gave off a classic mature vibe. She also had a few notes that were a little shaky, but she made up for it with her confident performance. Lilli really knows how to deliver the meaning of a song. This was a tough decision for me but my winner of this battle was Ashley! Alicia also chose Ashley but Lilli was in high demand when Adam AND Blake hit their STEAL buttons (I kind of feel like Blake pushed the button just to make Adam mad). Lilli chose to join Team Adam! Welcome to the Team Adam family Lilli.
WOW! What an amazing night of performances. I’ll give you my thoughts on last night’s episode tomorrow but in the meantime, leave a comment letting me know what you thought of the knockout premiere! How are everyone’s teams holding up???

Fred MacMurray and Irene Dunne
Surprisingly effective story about bullheaded boxer (Fred MacMurray) and the society girl (Irene Dunne) who fall in love but then face some hard times.
The two stars are top-notch and turn in solid performances even when the material goes astray and the story turns soapy. Dunne is warm and gracious as always and makes the most of the comedy here; MacMurray is excellent as the goofy fighter determined to be world champ. His final fight scenes are among the best and most realistic I've seen.
Solid support from William Collier as Dunne's wise father and Charlie Ruggles as the wary fight manager. Billy Cook is the son, Marion Martin the the blonde, Virginia Brissac is the nurse, Oscar O'Shea is the judge.
But the stars here dominate this film. I've always been a big Irene Dunne fan but I must say I'm gaining a whole new vision of Fred MacMurray. Having grown up with "My Three Sons," it's amazing to see the young MacMurray in a variety of solid 30s roles (many with Carole Lombard).
Excellent film with something for everyone.

In the hot sun, Lankershim Boulevard in North Hollywood spreads out wide and flat, the granite fronts of office buildings glistening in the light. Austere sentinels of palm trees tower over the street. The community was named in hopes of catching a whiff of the glamour conjured by Hollywood to the south. And, as with a life devoted to chasing stardom, the rhythms of this swatch of the San Fernando Valley are both prosaic and poetic.

Wet carpet is piled in a heap behind her as fashion designer Dana Bernard haggles on the phone with a manufacturer over a tiny swatch of fabric. "It's not right," she says, talking over a noisy fan. "I need the color a little more grainy." A plumbing problem the night before flooded the office, which is now empty except for a couple of desks and racks of clothes, but fashion waits for no plumber. Such is the seductive world of a designer.

Caroline Vega and her roommate alternate using the kitchen, but neither of them is fighting for rights to the stove. She's a student of fashion design, he's a writer, and they both want dibs on the kitchen's picnic table. "I work on a wooden picnic bench that's set up in the kitchen. It's a big old mess," she says. "Yesterday John was typing, so today I'm sewing."


The United Kingdom’s broadcast regulator Ofcom is considering letting “re-advertised” analog radio station licenses extend for twelve years, the maximum possible license length. The current policy is to set licenses approaching their expiration date at seven, but “market and regulatory developments” since 2010 suggest a reconsideration, a Ofcom consultation concludes:
” . . . we have not identified any further factors which might justify a shorter licence period than the statutory maximum. As a longer licence period would provide greater commercial certainty for operators, we are proposing a new policy that licence durations will be set at 12 years.”
The consultation also indicates that the government thinks that its transition to DAB digital broadcasting is succeeding:
“DAB is a significantly more widely adopted technology now, with greater availability of a greater number of services; more DAB sets in homes and cars; and more listening to DAB in terms of both reach and share. The trends since 2010 and going back further, plus the recent policy announcements by Government, suggest that there will be sustained growth and development of the DAB radio platform.
We consider that these developments will reduce the need for flexibility for Government, Parliament and Ofcom in introducing new licensing regimes or spectrum planning for the FM band, since it now seems that these would not be necessary, post-switchover.”
Here in the United States, broadcast radio station licenses extend to eight years. Ofcom is soliciting feedback on its proposal through May 6.

In this article, the author makes an excellent case against being chill and how sometimes dating can seem like a competition of who can care the least.
