Kampala has experienced rapid development over the last decade. Whilst the city has a comparatively small urban population compared to East African neighbours, it has one of the highest average annual population growth rates in Africa.
The population has increased from 95,000 in 1950 to 2,012,000 in 2015. UN-HABITAT estimates that by 2030 the population will grow to 3,939,000 (ca. 103% increase in population). The city is home to 31.5% of Uganda’s urban population. Data for urban agglomeration population density is missing.
Kampala faces numerous urbanisation challenges including a rapidly growing population, the influence and intervention of the national government in city management, limited institutional capacity and financial resources to provide urban service. Motorisation rates are intermediate in Kampala compared to other study cities.

“You are not a drop in the ocean,
you are the entire ocean in a drop.”
Ecstatic in the bounty of the rain today.
Its waters slow sinking deep into our earth,
A boundless love offering,
A pour of life.
Today, I am in gratitude for the rain.
“Let the rain kiss you. Let the rain beat upon your head
with silver liquid drops. Let the rain sing you a lullaby.”
“How quick we are to find the rainbow,
before being thankful for the rain.”
What is it about living with the wild ones?
I only know that it is necessary.
“I make myself rich by making my wants few.”~ Henry David Thoreau“The cost of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it”~ Henry David Thoreau
I almost missed this one. It’s just the second annual celebration and it caught me off guard and unprepared. Shopping for my Mom for Mother’s Day on Thursday, I realized it – today was Woman’s Day!! My day to celebrate being a woman. That nurturing, independent, deepening, wisdom seeking, free flying, sometimes scattered, loving, spiritual, lover of music, books, travel, nature, friends, Little Bear, Mom and husband… all that makes me a woman.
I am child-less but not Less.
I have found myriad ways of giving and absorbing love without the great benefit of the boundless kind showered on a child that is born to you.
Unconditional love is possible for me, without the teachings that bearing and raising a child unfolds and deepens in you (thanks Betsy for saying that to me so many years ago – you’ve likely forgotten but I never have).
So Woman’s Day did happen for me after all. I stopped right then, and asked myself how I wanted to celebrate. I had chocolate in the afternoon, I bought a boho vest and a flying free feather bearing woman mobile (she SO speaks to me of this woman’s day celebration and celebrating being a woman!), I spent time in quiet space on the healing mat, I listened to music and absorbed the forest. A grand Woman’s Day indeed.
The importance of the intent and the doing and being were not lost.

How To Remove A Live Primer From A Shotgun Shell?
If you have a shotgun with a live primer in the chamber, here’s how to remove it. First, make sure the gun is unloaded. Then, open the action and look down into the chamber.
You should see the primer at the bottom of the chamber. Using a small screwdriver or other tool, gently pry the primer out of its seat. Be careful not to damage the primer or let it fall into the action.
Once the primer is out, you can dispose of it safely.
- Using a pair of pliers, carefully remove the primer from the center of the shotgun shell
- Hold the primer in the pliers and gently pull it out of the shell
- Discard the primer in a safe place
How to Deprime a Shotgun Shell – EASY
How Do I Remove Primer?
Assuming you are talking about paint primer:
The best way to remove primer is with a chemical stripper. You can find these at most hardware stores.
They come in both gel and liquid form. The gel is easier to control, but the liquid will work faster. Before you begin, make sure that the area is well ventilated.
Put on gloves and eye protection. Apply the stripper according to the directions on the package. Let it sit for the amount of time specified before beginning to scrape it off with a putty knife or other blunt object.
Once all of the primer has been removed, wash the area with soap and water to remove any residual stripper. Allow it to dry completely before painting or priming again.
What Metal are Shotgun Primers Made Of?
The vast majority of shotgun primers are made from lead styphnate. Lead styphnate is a highly effective primary explosive that has been used in ammunition for over 100 years. It is relatively stable, and not particularly sensitive to shock or friction.
These characteristics make it ideal for use in shotgun shells. There are a few other metals that can be used in shotgun primers, but they are not as common. These include zinc diazonium perchlorate and copper azide.
Zinc diazonium perchlorate is sometimes used in small caliber ammunition because it is very sensitive to shock and can provide a very high muzzle velocity. Copper azide is occasionally used in larger caliber ammunition because it is less sensitive to shock than lead styphnate but still provides good performance.
What is in a Shotgun Shell Primer?
A shotgun shell primer is a small metal cup that contains a charge of explosive material. This charge is used to ignite the gunpowder in the shell. The primer is located at the base of the shell and is inserted into the firing chamber of the gun.
When the trigger is pulled, the firing pin strikes the primer, igniting the charge and setting off the gunpowder.
Can You Reuse Primers?
There’s a lot of debate surrounding the topic of whether or not you can reuse primers. Some say that you can, as long as they’re stored properly, while others argue that it’s not worth the risk. So, what’s the verdict?
As with most things in life, it depends. If you’re planning on storing your primer for an extended period of time (months to years), then it’s probably best to err on the side of caution and toss them out after one use. However, if you’re only looking to extend their life by a few days or weeks, there are some things you can do to increase their shelf-life.
Here are a few tips for storing used primers: 1. Keep them clean – This seems like a no-brainer, but it’s important nonetheless. Be sure to wipe down your used primers with alcohol before storing them away.
This will help prevent any bacteria from growing on them. 2. Store them in a cool, dark place – Again, this will help prevent bacteria growth. A fridge is ideal, but if you don’t have one available simply store them in a cupboard or drawer away from direct sunlight.
3. Use an airtight container – This will keep your primers dry and free from dust and other contaminants. Mason jars work well for this purpose. Simply screw on the lid tightly and label accordingly (date used etc.).
4. Inspect before using – Before applying your reused primer, give it a once over to make sure it looks clean and fresh. If there’s any discoloration or signs of spoilage, ditch it and start anew!
Remove Live Primer
If you’re like most people, you probably have a few cans of primer sitting in your garage or basement. And if you’re like most people, you’ve probably never used them. But what if I told you that there’s a way to remove live primer from your hands without using any chemicals?
Here’s what you’ll need: -A can of compressed air -A pair of gloves
-A paper towel or rag First, put on the gloves. Then, hold the can of compressed air upside down and spray the primer onto the paper towel or rag.
Hold the cloth over the affected area for a few seconds, then wipe it away. Repeat as necessary until all the primer is gone.
How to Dispose of Live Primers
If you have live primers that you need to dispose of, there are a few things you can do. First, if the primer is small enough, you can flush it down the toilet. If the primer is too large to flush, you can place it in a container of water and freeze it until it is solid.
Once frozen, throw the primer away in your regular trash. You can also bury the primer in dirt or sand to ensure that it will not go off.
Shotgun Shell Primer Removal Tool
A shotgun primer removal tool is a handy little gadget that can make removing primers from shotgun shells much easier. This can be a useful tool for those who reload their own ammunition or for those who simply want to clean out their firearms after using them.
The main advantage of using a primer removal tool is that it can help to prevent accidental discharge while you are working with your gun.
It is also much easier to control the amount of force that you apply when using this type of tool, which means that you are less likely to damage the shell or the primer itself. To use a shotgun primer removal tool, simply place the tip of the tool against the back of the primer and push down firmly. The tool will then release the primer from the shell so that you can remove it easily.
Be sure to dispose of the used primer safely so that it does not pose a danger to anyone else.
If you’re a hunter or a shooter, at some point you’ll likely come across a shotgun shell with a live primer. While it’s not dangerous to handle, it can be tricky to remove. Here’s a quick guide on how to do it safely.
First, make sure the shotgun is unloaded and the chamber is clear. Next, find something to use as a spacer – something that will fit snugly into the shell but won’t damage the primer. A pencil or pen works well for this.
Gently insert the spacer into the shell until it rests against the primer. Now comes the slightly tricky part – using needle-nose pliers (or something similar), grip the edge of the primer and pull straight out. It may take a little bit of force, but be careful not to bend or twist the primer as you remove it.
Once it’s out, dispose of it properly and inspect the shell for any damage before reloading.

According to the Guardian, at least 33 cities across the eastern United States have used water-testing “cheats” to conceal dangerous levels of lead. Twenty-one cities used the same techniques that resulted in felony charges against three government employees in Flint, Michigan, accused of misleading regulators.
At a preliminary budget hearing on Monday, New York City Housing Authority chair Shola Olatoye testified before the City Council that the city recently tested the water in random, vacant public housing units. The tests were conducted “out of an abundance of caution” to check for elevated lead levels.
In tonight’s Democratic debate, citizens of Flint, Michigan have been asking the candidates questions that hit close to home—questions like, what can you do to promise us we won’t be poisoned, for instance. Which, for Hillary, meant swearing to get rid of every last bit of lead in the country in five years time.
Yes, life is hard for the residents of Flint, MI, many of whom have no clean water and toxic levels of lead coursing through their veins. But life is also hard for Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder, who can’t even enjoy a night out anymore without being reminded of the fact that thousands of his constituents were poisoned on his watch.
The water in Flint, Mich. is poisoned. On Tuesday, many months after its residents rightly suspected its water might be tainted and sickening, Michigan Governor Rick Snyder declared a state of emergency. On Thursday, Flint Mayor Karen Weaver said the cash-poor city might need to come up with as much $1.5 billion to fix its water system, a sad coda to a crisis that stems from a broken down city looking to save money anywhere it could.

Hyperpigmentation is a common skin condition in which areas of skin on the face or body become darker in color than the normal skin tone. Hyperpigmentation can be very difficult to improve, and topical treatments such as skin brightening creams can help reduce the hyperpigmentation. In addition to topical treatments, procedural treatments such as IPL, laser, chemical peels, or microneedling may also be performed to reduce the appearance of the hyperpigmentation.
While hydroquinone (HQ) has long been the gold standard for improving hyperpigmentation, it is surrounded by controversy given its potential issues with long term use, adverse reaction profile, and cellular toxicity seen in animal studies. It has been banned for consumer use in Europe, Japan, and other parts of the world. As a result, there has been a consumer demand for a hydroquinone alternative topical product that is safe and effective in improving hyperpigmentation.
Skinuva® Brite is an advanced, science-backed skin brightening cream that is hydroquinone-free and does not contain any other harsh ingredients such as retinol, parabens, dyes, or other peeling-like agents. Instead, its selective use of synthetic growth factors that specifically help improve hyperpigmentation and formula consisting of other clinically backed ingredients make it one of the most effective products in improving hyperpigmentation.
The Limitations of Hydroquinone
One of the biggest downsides of using HQ for hyperpigmentation is that it can cause adverse skin reactions. Some negative side effects include burning, stinging, or other mild skin irritation and sensitization, dermatitis, dryness, and redness, While HQ has been proven to help improve hyperpigmentation, the negative effects on the skin can sometimes outweigh the benefits.
HQ is also not suitable for long term use. Due to its inflammatory effects, many physicians limit the use of HQ to no more than 1-3 months. Once a patient has stopped using HQ to treat their skin, it can potentially cause rebound hyperpigmentation, where the hyperpigmentation becomes worse after taking a patient off HQ. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding (who often develop pregnancy related melasma) should also not use HQ.
Why You Should Choose Skinuva Brite to Treat Hyperpigmentation
Skinuva Brite was specifically designed as an alternative to hydroquinone to be safe for daily long-term use, but also to provide results that have clinically been shown to be nearly 30% better than HQ 4% in a head-to-head clinical trial that was recently published in the Journal of Cosmetic Science.* Skinuva Brite does not contain any harsh ingredients, but instead includes both natural and scientifically proven ingredients in its formulation:
- Selective Synthetic Growth Factors: Epidermal Growth Factors and others have been shown to help reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and improve the inflammation that can result in hyperpigmentation
- Tranexamic Acid: Helps minimize the appearance and recurrence of discoloration and stubborn brown patches with continued use.
- Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Water-soluble vitamin that has been shown to help reduce the appearance of skin discoloration.
- Vitamin C: Powerful antioxidant and prevents melanin production.
- Arbutin: Found in bearberry plants and reduces hyperpigmentation.
Skinuva Brite’s revolutionary Growth Factor technology and other ingredients are more effective at improving hyperpigmentation than HQ. Because it does not contain HQ, it can be used twice daily, morning and night, long term.
Other advantages over HQ and other skin brightening products include its pleasant scent, easy use, safe ingredients suitable for all skin tones and types including for pregnant and breastfeeding women, and a better value for doctors, patients, and customers.
If you suffer from hyperpigmentation such as melasma, sunspots, dark spots, or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), you can purchase Skinuva Brite here.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Hip-Hop' started by Omega_Reborn_AGAIN, Oct 20, 2013.
So far all I have is Charli XCX-True Romance and Ariana Grande-Yours Truly.
Those were the 2 I was going to recommend too. If you like indie pop rock try Foster the People or Two Door Cinema Club.
FtP are decent, but not a huge fan of indie rock.
Thats usually the type of rock I listen to but its not for everyone.
I wouldn't call it "pop" but I think you'd like Chase and Status.
good call. i dig this "count on me" song. which album do i peep
No More Idols.
You could always try Icona Pop I guess.
just peeped them. eh.
Yeah its a mixture of electronic and pop.Theyve got a few good songs but also a couple bad ones.
i was really annoyed by that "i don't care" song or whatever
Yeah that song gets annoying quick. Its on the radio all the time too.
heard this song for the first time last week and liked it.
Cannibal Corpse - Tomb of the Mutilated
bro, if you're going to rec some death metal, at least post something decent
Beach House - Bloom
this is good, but indie rock.
this shit is amazing so far. will definitely check out. very nice atmosphere.
digging this too, seems like it's on the banger side of things, which i always love
hmm, not fucking with this though.
the xx is some good indie pop. Jamie xx remixed a Gil Scott Heron album that is amazing too.
I second Beach House.
if you wanna try some pop-rap, hoodie allen definitely has some nice songs for that category.
some good names mentioned already though.
will peep the rest tomorrow. i've got 3 albums lined up for now
I really feel like pop and rap should stay into separate genres. I feel like pop singers can be a featured artist in rap but thats it.
You could always give Passion Pit or The Naked and Famous a listen to.
I thought Rihanna - Talk That Talk was pretty dope lol, that album bangs
Also not really pop, but since someone suggested Chase and Status, there is tons of sick electronic music out.
If you like rap that has some popish beats listen to The Deans List/The Kings Dead. They changed their name a while back. Chris Webby and Kid Ink are decent too.
I'm sure you've already heard of them ,but Toro y Moi and Neon Indian are both good starters for chillwave music.
Big Black Delta has some really nasty beats.
Jagwar Ma, San Cisco, and Tame Impala are some cool Aussie groups. Tame Impala being more psychedelic, and San Cisco is really poppy.
Foxygen is also a pretty sick psychedelic rock group .
haven't heard anything mentioned ITT, i already have enough to check out for now, thanks hhb
Lorde's album is nice.
I would probably prefer to watch a abortion on loop for a day than listen to Chris Webby.
I personally dont like him either but my friends like pop rap, its the only rap they like, and they like him. I honestly dont know what good pop rap is since I dont like pop rap so I just listed what they like.
Chiddy Bang is another pop rap group.
I think B.o.B's debut album is pop rap done somewhat well.
Well its not terrible like most so it is better. I think The Kings Dead might be the only pop rap group I actually sort of like. I guess Chiddy Bang has a few decent songs but most of their stuff is also pretty annoying.
frat rap =/= pop rap
Well whatever the difference is I dont like either.
i'm glad I decided to open my mind a bit this year, i don't regret delving into pop one bit. In a way, I can draw a parallel to the trap music I love, both are incredibly catchy and I find a lot of replay value in them.(Doesn't reflect fact, just my opinion).
this sounds similiar to BSBD production
I shall gets atchoo later. Lmao at me being tagged though.
Alunageorge are nice. Just an easy one.
yeah i have body music in my backlog, should've mentioned that.
tagged you because i remember you liking charli xcx true romance.
GTA V opened me up to a few new awesome acts.
I dare you to tell you don't feel like you're the shit and the toilet when you listen to this track:
This is how this track makes me feel ^^^
A lot of good recommendations in here. Surprised to see it went so long without a mention for Chvrches:
The lead singer is pretty hot.
More electronic music
Also BSBD (the name) reminds me of BSOD (better sounding on drugs / Deadmau5 + Steve Duda)
Some of these aren't really "pop", so eh..they're just not Hip Hop, so yah.
You got Jessie Ware's album, Devotion, which was one of my favourites last year. Also got a c/s from Tyler
Then you have Katy B's album, On A Mission, which was one of my favourites the year it dropped. This is probably my favourite song off the album
I just recently got into Banks who has an EP called "London". It's a 4 track. She's opening for The Weeknd along his tour, but I dig.
Will post more. Double posts and shit.

FORMER ZBC TV presenter, Oscar Pambuka and former Zanu PF legislator, Psychology Maziwisa were Thursday sentenced to 78 months each after they were convicted of swindling the Zimbabwe Power Company (ZPC) through a bogus public relations deal.
They were facing two fraud counts and were convicted of both.
Harare magistrate Lazin Ncube sentenced the pair to 54 months each for the first count and on the second count, they were sentenced to 24 months each.
On the first count, 12 months were suspended on condition they restituted ZPC $12,000 by January 2019 and a further 12 months were suspended on condition of good behaviour.
The magistrate further ruled that 24 months of the second count will run concurrently with the remaining 30 months of the first count.
Effectively, the two will each serve 30 months imprisonment.

Steve Wynn, the former Wynn Resorts Ltd. Chairman and CEO, says airline service to Las Vegas will be critical to helping the gambler’s paradise rebound. Properties with a presence in Macau will have an edge over those that don’t.
“For Las Vegas, the first hurdle is the airlines,” Wynn said in an interview with Fox Business. “We’ve got to make sure the service that has supported those (150,000) rooms on the Strip that the airport is up to speed. Otherwise, people will only be able to drive from California.”
Before reopening, casinos housing poker rooms in Nevada will need to adhere to strict health and safety guidelines. And many properties are expected to go above and beyond to keep visitors safe and confident in visiting the strip.
“Assuming that we get lift from the airlines, I know that they’re (the resorts) planning to have separation at the tables, even having some (clear plastic) barricades. They’ll be using gloves, they’ll be using masks. They’re going to take people’s temperatures. They’re going to be using all the common-sense defenses that have been promulgated to the public by the government. And I know they’ve got the staff to do that.”
Wynn also noted that it’s not quite clear how the relationship between the United States and China is going to play out in terms of affecting tourism. Many high rollers who visit Las Vegas poker rooms are from China.
“While Macau may be open and their rate of COVID occurrences have been at or near zero for 30-plus days, until that border opens up, Macau will still be struggling along,” noted Brendan Bussmann, the Director of Government Affairs for Global Market Advisors, LLC, based in Las Vegas “I think we’ll see really depressing May numbers next month, but there is pent-up demand over in China and once you’re able to go over from Guangdong and even Hong Kong when those restrictions are lifted, I’ll think you’ll see Macau come back fairly quickly.”
With confidence in visiting Macau returning, and with airline service resuming to Las Vegas, there could be pent up demand to return to the worldwide capital of gambling.

New Pakistani port is Chinese pearl
The Chinese have transformed Pakistan's Gwadar town on the rugged Baloch coast into one of the region's most important trading hubs, a crucial gateway of trade between the Gulf countries and Central Asia. Kamal Siddiq reports.world Updated: Sep 15, 2009 22:20 IST
Dust storms blow now through empty streets in the half-finished Pakistani port town. At its only five- star hotel, rooms are vacant. And in the streets, the Chinese customers of the fish sellers are gone.
After staying here for five years, most went away last year from Pakistanis southwestern Gwadar town, on its sleepy Arabian Sea coastal backyard, after threats from suspected Baloch rebels. But the Chinese have transformed it into one of the region's most important trading hubs, a strategic foothold for China in the Asian heartland, a crucial gateway of trade between the Gulf countries and Central Asia.
When commissioned -- there is no fixed date -- it will be a tax free port set up with investments from both China and Pakistan that authorities hope will create at least 2 million jobs.
Gwadar, located at the mouth of the Strait of Hormuz, was inaugurated last year and has already become a key part of China's plan to build "a string of pearls", a series of ports across the Indian Ocean that it doesn't own, but where it can use its warships.
The port has not taken off because a highway that the government has promised would be built to link Gwadar with the Punjab province and Afghanistan on the other side has not been completed.
Most cargo is shipped in to Gwadar's bulk terminal and then must go to Karachi before being distributed across Pakistan.
But all the attention has taught Gwadar's youth to dream big. The young men who hang around the Gwadar Club and on the pristine beachside say their goal is to find work in Muscat, or to go to Karachi, the nearest city - about 700 kilometers away.
And it is sending incomes soaring for local businessmen, after the construction of the grand Coastal Highway that connects Karachi with Gwadar and has opened up endless possibilities.
"Earlier, it took three days for my products to reach Karachi. Now it takes one day," said Haji Abdul Qadir, president of the Gwadar Chambers of Commerce, who also owns a seafood processing factory. Qadir said the Chinese presence helped give the town "international exposure."
The port project was inaugurated in the spring of 2007 by Pakistanis then-military ruler, General Pervez Musharraf, with Chinese Communications Minister Li Shenglin, on his side. It is now being expanded into a naval base with financial and technical assistance from China.
Many Chinese still remain but keep a low profile.
All that has made America and India view it with deep suspicion.
"The Indians see the Chinese presence in this area as somewhat of a threat. But it is an economic presence not a military one," said defence analyst Ayesha Siddiqa.
Some think that with most Chinese gone, all is over.
"The Chinese brought with them good fortune," said Dr Muhammad Jamil, a local doctor. ôWhen they were here, we had prosperity. When they left, they took their fortunes with them.
But for most in Pakistan, Gwadar and its development has meant the opening up of economic opportunities for people in Balochistan, considered one of the most neglected and backward provinces in the country.
President Asif Ali Zardari is keen on Chinese help to complete the project. He has vowed to visit China "every few months" so he can bring back aid, investment and technical know-how to areas like Gwadar. In his most recent trip in August, Zardari signed deals with the Chinese for building dams in the province.
All that is plugging Gwadar into the world. Using binoculars, sitting at the grand Pearl Continental Hotel, one can spot the massive tankers that make their way in and out of the Persian Gulf.
The hotel, the only five-star property for hundreds of miles around, stands atop a hill overlooking Gwadar, a town of about 50,000. It was here that most of the Chinese engineers were relocated after attacks on them by what were described as Baloch nationalists. Now most of the rooms are empty as the Chinese have left.
At the Fishermen's Jetty next to the Gwadar Port project, fishermen recall Chinese men and women would come ambling by, looking for fresh fish.
"They even made requests on certain types of fish," said one fisherman, declining to be named in the town of great political sensitivities. They would give us extra money if we caught it for them.

The Gunners ready to try again the Juventus midfielder, the 22-year-old Belgian would enter the deal
Arsenal would be ready to return to the office for Manuel Locatelli. According to the English press, the Gunners have again in their sights the Juve midfielder, already searched without success a year ago. This time to take the 24-year-old blue they would be ready to offer Albert Sambi Lokonga, the 22-year-old Belgian midfielder. Both players have a valuation of around € 30 million.
The midfield is currently the weak link of the Gunners, top of the class in the Premier League with 7 wins in 8 games. It is true that Thomas Partey and Grant Xhaka are immovable starters, but complicit in the injuries behind them there is too little for Arteta to feel comfortable, in a season in which Arsenal have so far proved to be the best team after City. The Gunners on the last day of the transfer market have tried for a long time with Aston Villa for Douglas Luiz, without finding an agreement despite a proposal that has reached up to 30 million euros. In January, a reinforcement in the middle will be the number one goal, and this is where Locatelli comes in. Arsenal had fallen in love with him after the European Championship and had treated him for a long time with Sassuolo, but Manuel had preferred Juve. Things are not going as planned for Juventus, but Arsenal have not lost interest. And it is ready to move immediately.
Also for this reason Arsenal would be ready to sacrifice Lokonga. The 22-year-old who grew up in Anderlecht landed in London last year but has not yet made the breakthroughs the team expected of him. “He needs to play to grow and is frustrated because he doesn’t play – he recently said of midfielder Kevin Campbell, former Gunners striker – he would need more minutes elsewhere.” Juve for him could be that change of scenery he needs.

Are you tired of paying out the nose to pay car insurance each month? You have the same problem as the majority of other vehicle owners in South Carolina.
Sad but true, almost 70% of drivers kept buying from the same company for a minimum of four years, and 38% of drivers have never even compared rates from other companies. Columbia consumers can save about $750 each year by just shopping around, but they mistakenly think it's difficult to compare other rate quotes.
Online insurance companies like State Farm, Farmers Insurance, GEICO and Allstate all promote huge savings with ads and it can be hard to see through the cute green geckos and mayhem and find the best price available.
It is always a good idea to check car insurance prices once or twice a year because prices change regularly. Despite the fact that you may have had the lowest rates on Ford Mustang insurance in Columbia on your last policy you can probably find a better premium rate now. Block out anything you think you know about car insurance because you're going to learn the things you must know in order to save money, get proper coverage and the best rates.
If you currently have auto insurance, you will be able to get lower rates using this strategy. Buying the cheapest auto insurance in Columbia is actually quite easy if you know where to start. But South Carolina car owners can benefit from knowing how insurance companies charge you for coverage because it varies considerably.
Companies offering Ford Mustang insurance in South Carolina
The providers in the list below provide quotes in South Carolina. If multiple providers are shown, we recommend you visit several of them to get the best price comparison.

Cost estimates assume single female driver age 40, no speeding tickets, no at-fault accidents, $1,000 deductibles, and South Carolina minimum liability limits. Discounts applied include claim-free, multi-vehicle, homeowner, safe-driver, and multi-policy. Rate quotes do not factor in Columbia location which can raise or lower rates considerably.
The illustration below illustrates how choosing a deductible and can increase or decrease Ford Mustang premium costs for different ages of insureds. The premiums assume a single female driver, full coverage, and no discounts are applied to the premium.
Verify you're earning every discount
Companies offering auto insurance don't always publicize their entire list of discounts in an easy-to-find place, so the next list breaks down both the well known as well as the least known discounts that you can inquire about if you buy Columbia car insurance online.
- No Claims - Drivers who don't have accidents pay less as compared to insureds who have frequent claims or accidents.
- Discounts for New Vehicles - Adding a new car to your policy can be considerably cheaper due to better safety requirements for newer vehicles.
- Homeowners Savings - Just being a homeowner can earn you a little savings because owning a home requires personal responsibility.
- Driver Education Discount - Teen drivers should successfully complete driver's ed class in high school.
- Discount for Life Insurance - Not every insurance company offers life insurance, but if they do you may earn a break if you buy life insurance from them.
Don't be surprised that some credits don't apply to your bottom line cost. Some only apply to specific coverage prices like comprehensive or collision. Even though the math looks like all those discounts means the company will pay you, companies wouldn't make money that way.

You may need help from an insurance agent
Some consumers just want to buy from a local agent and that is not a bad decision The biggest benefit of comparing auto insurance online is the fact that drivers can get cheaper car insurance rates and still buy from a local agent.
For easy comparison, once you complete this quick form, your insurance coverage information is sent to local insurance agents who will give you bids for your business. There is no need to leave your house due to the fact that quote results will go straight to your inbox. You can find the lowest rates and work with a local agent. If you need to compare rates from a specific auto insurance provider, just find their quoting web page and give them your coverage information.
Picking the best insurance company should include more criteria than just a low price. Any agent in Columbia should be forthright in answering these questions:
- How would your car be valued if totalled?
- Do they have adequate Errors and Omissions coverage? This protects you if they make a mistake.
- If you have an accident, are you able to get your vehicle repaired at the shop of your choice?
- Are they actively involved in the community?
- Will the quote change when the policy is issued?
- How are they compensated?
Types of auto insurance agents
If you are wanting to find a reliable agent, there are two types of agencies that you can select. Auto insurance agencies are classified as either independent or exclusive.
Exclusive Insurance Agents
These agents write business for a single company and examples are American Family, State Farm, and Allstate. These agents are not able to shop your coverage around so they have to upsell other benefits. Exclusive insurance agents are usually quite knowledgeable on their company's products and that allows them to sell at a higher price point.
Below is a list of exclusive insurance agents in Columbia willing to provide rate quotes.
Charles Piercy - State Farm Insurance Agent
7626 US-1 - Columbia, SC 29223 - (803) 788-1200 - View Map
Independent Agencies or Brokers
These agents are not employed by any specific company and that allows them to write policies through lots of different companies and potentially find a lower price. If you are not satisfied with one company, the agent simply finds a different carrier and that require little work on your part.
When comparing rate quotes, you definitely need to get rate quotes from several independent agencies in order to compare the most rates.
The following are Columbia independent agencies who can help you get rate quotes.
Lower rates by being persistent
Throughout this article, we presented quite a bit of information on how to shop for Ford Mustang insurance online. The key concept to understand is the more rate comparisons you have, the better chance you'll have of finding low cost Columbia car insurance quotes. Drivers may even discover the most savings is with a lesser-known regional company. These smaller insurers can often provide lower rates in certain areas than the large multi-state companies such as State Farm and Allstate.
Low-cost Ford Mustang insurance in Columbia can be bought online in addition to local insurance agencies, so you need to shop Columbia car insurance with both to get a complete price analysis. Some auto insurance companies do not offer online quoting and usually these small, regional companies sell through independent agents.
When shopping online for auto insurance, it's not a good idea to reduce coverage to reduce premium. There are many occasions where someone dropped collision coverage only to discover later that the few dollars in savings costed them thousands. Your goal should be to buy enough coverage at the lowest possible cost but still have enough coverage for asset protection.

Football coach Derek Mason shares his thoughts on Vanderbilt senior inside linebacker Jordan Griffin.
NASHVILLE – Having coached the likes of All-Pro cornerback Richard Sherman and All-American linebacker Zach Cunningham during his career, Vanderbilt head coach Derek Mason has seen immensely talented defensive players come and go.
But when it comes to Vanderbilt senior inside linebacker Jordan Griffin, Mason doesn’t mince words.
“If you get him in a room and talk to him, JG is probably the smartest defensive player we have, all the way around,” Mason said. “He knows it all, top to bottom.”
Those smarts have been put on display in Griffin’s last two games. The Tampa, Fla. native has recorded 18 total tackles in back-to-back games for the Commodores, the first player to do so in the last two decades of Vanderbilt football. Griffin also recovered two fumble recoveries last week against Kentucky, the first two of his career.
That penchant for stat-stuffing has emphasized Griffin’s importance as a senior leader on Vanderbilt’s defense. On Oct. 13 against Florida, Griffin chipped in 10 solo tackles and eight assisted stops. He managed six solo tackles and 12 assisted stops against Kentucky. Those two performances have helped Griffin leap atop the SEC standings in total tackles (86) and solo tackles (43), averaging 10.8 per game.
Yet asked to react to his individual success, Griffin is blunt.
“In the past two games that I’ve gotten 18 tackles, we’ve lost,” Griffin said. “So, I haven’t felt much joy in that. I’d rather get a win than 18 tackles.”
Griffin’s priority is to help Vanderbilt bounce back from a three-game losing streak and keep its eye on the goal of reaching the postseason. This Saturday, the Commodores venture to face Arkansas in Fayetteville (11 a.m. CT on SEC Network). Last week, Vanderbilt limited No. 14 Kentucky to just 14 points, but Mason said the Dores must stand taller in the home stretch of SEC play.
Griffin is a key piece to that puzzle, the coach said.
“People have seen him as an undersized linebacker, but I think in football we’ve seen plenty of undersized linebackers with great skills and abilities and a nose for the football, and that’s what he’s had,” Mason said. “He’s sudden, he can key and diagnose quickly, he’s always been able to do it even as a young guy. But I think now as he’s older he’s having to carry the weight a little bit with young guys around him.”
Griffin credits his football maturation to a long-held focus on details, an approach he honed during a stellar career at Armwood High in Tampa. Griffin was tabbed a high school All-American as a senior in 2014, when he registered 158 tackles, nine sacks and seven fumble recoveries for the Hawks. Griffin finished his high school career with 428 tackles, second all-time at Armwood, but he says the small details ultimately led to that success.
“I’ve learned a lot here, but I credit a lot to my high school,” Griffin said. “Coming from Armwood, we learned that you’ve got to sit down and focus on the details, and that will make you a better player. Coach Mason and Coach [Chris] Marve, they’ve just enhanced my film study since I’ve been at Vanderbilt, and it’s made me a better player.”
Details and all, Griffin’s journey through his final collegiate season continues Saturday against Arkansas. And make no mistake, the senior’s goal is to return to Nashville with a win – no matter what he leaves on the stat sheet.
“I’m just trying to do anything I can to help this team win,” Griffin said. “That’s all I care about.”

TOKYO (TR) – G-cup AV actress Reiko Yamaguchi has spent much of her career playing “mature” leading ladies. Yet ten years after her debut she finds herself as a full bar mama-san at a snack in Tokyo’s entertainment district of Kabukicho.
“Since I have experience as a hostess and I also wanted to create a venue for interaction with my fans, I decided to open this bar,” says the AV veteran to evening tabloid Nikkan Gendai (July 12) about her club called Bar Nude, which opened in April. “With me working ‘naked’ on a regular basis, I came up with this name because I wanted to expose the other side of me.”
The bar has 15 seats behind the counter. Entry fees start at 60 minutes for 2,500 yen. Sparkling wine (Cafe de Paris) can be purchased for 3,000 yen, and the actress, who has starred in roughly 500 adult video features, will sandwich the bottle between her 98-centimeter breasts as a no-charge extra before pouring. On Friday and Saturday nights part-time girls also serve.
“While sometimes I may have to close down for shoots, the bar is usually open,” she says. Bar Nude can be reached at 03-3208-5019 — and, who knows, perhaps Reiko-san is reachable as well.

There are two methods for importing shells modeled in the main program into the wall modules for design
1. Integrated Design. Modules – Assign
2. Standalone Design. Modules – Standalone
The Integrated Design option imports the wall geometry, material property, and forces from the main program. The module works as a post-processor: the analysis is completed in the main program, forces are imported into the module, and wall design is completed in the module using those forces. Once the design is performed, the results are stored in the main model file (*.etz). After the design is saved and the module is closed, an orange rectangle representing the wall design will be displayed within the shell elements as shown in the image below. The wall design can be edited or reviewed later by editing the assigned wall (Modules – Edit or double-click on the orange rectangle). If changes are made to the wall geometry or loads in the main program, those changes will automatically be imported in the wall module file when the wall is edited at a later date.
Because the module is a post-processor and a second finite element analysis is not completed in the module, it is not possible to change properties of the wall (thickness, opening locations, etc) or loading within the module. All items marked with a red arrow (see yellow circle in image below) cannot be modified in the module. To include changes to these items in the wall design, the change must be made to the shells in the main program, the model must be reanalyzed, and the assigned wall design must be edited so the wall information is reimported into the module. Items marked with a blue pencil (see red circle in image below) can be modified in the module.
Out-of-plane wall pressure, such as wind load on an perimeter wall, can present problems for the Integrated Design option. Typically, wind loads are applied as story forces at a point on a diaphragm and not as pressures applied directly to exterior walls. This is how lateral loads are imported in models that are imported from RAM Structural System. If wind loads are applied this way, there is not a way to add the out-of-plane wind pressure when the wall is passed into the module. To consider the out-of-plane pressure in the wall design, the wind loads would need to be modeled as pressures on the exterior shells or a second model using the Standalone Design option would need to created to evaluate the out-of-plane condition.
The Standalone Design option imports the wall geometry and material only. The loads acting on the wall and the load combinations must be defined in the module after the wall is imported. A separate 2D finite element analysis is completed in the module based on the imported geometry and material properties, the manually defined loads, and the assumed boundary conditions. The wall design is saved in a separate file (*.cwd, *.msw, *tup). There is no direct integration between the module file and the main program file. Any changes made in either file will need to be copied over manually to the other file.
For either the Integrated Design or Standalone Design option, the shells are imported into the wall module by first selecting the shells for one wall elevation and then clicking on the menu option noted above. The selected shells that are passed into the module must meet the following requirements:

MOSCOW, March 3. /TASS/. The Russian defense ministry received no messages from Pentagon concerning the dangerous encounters between the Russian and the US warplanes which allegedly took place on February 10, the ministry’s spokesman Major General Igor Konashenkov said.
General Tod Wolters, commander of the US Air Forces in Europe and Air Forces in Africa said earlier that on February 10, four dangerous encounters between the Russian and NATO warplanes had occurred. According to Wolters, three encounters involved the Russian Sukhoi Su-24 aircraft while one encounter involved an Ilyushin Il-38 warplane.
"We have received no messages either from Pentagon or from General Wolters concerning any dangerous encounters involving the Russian warplanes that could have taken place on February 10. Our aerospace forces conduct all flights in strict compliance with international rules and security requirements," Konashenkov said.
The Russian defense ministry spokesman pointed out that the Su-24 aircraft was a tactical bomber while the Il-38 was a four-engine anti-submarine aircraft. "This kind of aircraft do not make any sudden maneuvers or encounters," Konashenkov explained.
"If the US pilots feel agitated when they fly near Russia’s borders or detect some other planes in the same airspace, this is not Russia’s problem," he added.


The ruling Chinese Communist Party has banned news from unofficial sources, including social media, from appearing on websites and social media platforms in the country.
Websites and mobile content providers wishing to use social media as a source for stories must first verify the contents of the posts or tweets independently, the country's powerful Cyberspace Administration said in a statement on its website.
"Websites are strictly prohibited from using fabricated news, or news stories based on unnamed news sources, hearsay or guesswork," the statement said.
Media outlets must provide true, objective, and impartial coverage by improving news production procedures and internal checking mechanisms, it said.
The administration has already sanctioned some major news portals after accusing them of "fabricating" stories this year, it warned, citing sina.com, ifeng. com, 163.com and Tencent as examples.
"We will keep up the pressure on the regulation of false news and information online, and ... continually regulate the orderly use of information online," the statement quoted an unnamed administration official as saying.
Widening government control
The rules also apply to all mobile news portals, microblogging platforms and the smartphone messaging app WeChat, it said.
Activists and online writers said the move is the latest in a string of directives to emerge from internet regulators, who are widening government control over freedom of speech and public opinion.
They said the inclusion of mobile chat and social media posts in the ban was a key factor behind the directive.
"The main point of controlling websites is to control social media platforms ... like WeChat which lack a [comprehensive] censorship system at present," Guangzhou-based online writer Ye Du told RFA.
"Their attempt to shut the stable door after the horse has bolted, which is a sort of threatening behavior, is aimed at increasing a sense of fear among internet users," he said.
Guangdong rights activist Jia Pin said he wouldn't pay much attention to the directive, however.
"I'm just going to carry on posting what I want to post," Jia said. "Most rights activists' online activities won't be affected, but the authorities will likely make use of these rules to detain some internet users."
The move is the latest in raft of controls on what Chinese internet users can see online, and comes amid an ideological campaign launched by President Xi Jinping earlier this year.
The party's internal disciplinary arm has warned its powerful propaganda department that it is failing to exert enough control over public opinion, particularly online and in universities.
War on Western ideas
Meanwhile, Xi has hit out at "western" ideas entering Chinese public debate, adding that he wants all public debate to be shaped by the Communist Party and not by "hostile foreign forces" peddling values like democracy, human rights and the rule of law.
Last month, authorities in the central province of Henan set up an online task force comprised of volunteers from schools and universities who wage an ideological "struggle" on behalf of the ruling Chinese Communist Party.
In January, the Cyberspace Administration said it would prioritize "using Chinese views and Chinese plans to lead to a transformation in the governance system of the internet globally."
President Xi has called for a system for the global internet whereby "sovereignty" rests in the hands of individual countries, which may control what users in their country can see or do online.
The internet regulator also pledged to "let the party’s achievements in theoretical innovation and practical accomplishments become the highly held main tone and key themes in cyberspace."

Polmont Young Offenders Institution to improve education role
Polmont Young Offenders Institution is upgrading its education and training services in an attempt to tackle criticisms following an inspection.
In February, the unit was criticised for not motivating offenders and falling short in tackling reoffending.
For the first time government body Education Scotland will be directly involved in supervising inmates.
It aims to ensure offenders do not end up with an educational or training deficit compared with other youngsters.
In his report, HM Chief Inspector of Prisons Brigadier Hugh Monro said a lack of continuity had hindered Polmont in helping to reduce reoffending.
Brig Munro said the regime did not motivate or encourage young offenders to get out of bed and take part in activities.
The Chief Inspector said he believed a three year period of "frequent management changes" was the most likely reason for the lack of progress.
He suggested a period of stability to enable progress, particularly in the area of access to "purposeful activity".
Polmont has now teamed up with Education Scotland to become a "secure learning environment".
It wants to improve the services offered on site - ranging from basic reading, writing and counting skills to specific help training for trades.
There are also plans for better facilities and staff will be given more training.
It is hoped a link with the education curriculum will mean young offenders can continue course work started inside once they have been released.

Joe Bailey (author of Thriving in the Eye of the Hurricane) is dedicated to helping you nurture and grow your natural resilience.
We have four powerful guests featured in my upcoming book“THRIVING IN THE EYE OF THE HURRICANE, UNLOCKING RESILIENCE IN TURBULENT TIMES” appearing live on our podcast. Here’s a small introduction to each.
Director, facilitator and speaker
Derrick Mason is a director, facilitator and speaker
He first came across Beyond Recovery during his time in HMP Onley, taking the course purely to improve his chances for getting to open prison! He was so impacted by his experience that upon release from prison in August 2018 he got a job and started building good family relationships with his partner and children. When he hit a low spot in May 2019, he contacted Jacqueline and was invited to speak at a global conference about his transformative experience.
Since then, he’s become a director with Beyond Recovery, he is also now on the board of directors of the 3 Principles Global Committee and is co-founder of Beyond Truth. Derrick co-facilitates a BR Virtual Impact Program in the community and presents on webinars and radio programs.
Director, facilitator, and speaker
Omar Wilson is a director, facilitator, and speaker
He grew up in Manor Park, East London. At a young age he was diagnosed with ADHD & Dyslexia. Growing up in a single parent household with his two siblings plus a low income. Omar thought having money would help change everything and because of his disability education was not an option. The only role model he had was killed when Omar was 13. With no guidance but what was in front of him …DRUGS. Omar was part of one of Newham’s (in London) biggest drug organisations for almost 10 years. As a result of this he was sent to HMP Onley where he found Beyond Recovery.
Omar became a BR Peer Mentor helping to facilitate groups. Since leaving prison he has worked closely with Beyond Recovery at HMP Nottingham and online, in addition to working with young people affected by crime and has now become a Director at Beyond Recovery with the blessing of MamaJ
He is one of the founders of Beyond Truth.
Founder of Beyond Recovery, a facilitator and speaker.
Jacqueline Hollows (aka MamaJ)
Jacqueline Hollows (aka MamaJ) is the founder of Beyond Recovery, a facilitator and speaker.
BR’s mission is to revolutionise the way addictions, mental health and offending behaviour are viewed and treated. Through sharing an understanding of how our experience of life is created from our own minds, the pioneering work that BR does has the potential to reform the criminal justice system from the inside out.
Jacqueline is an author of research papers evidencing BR’s approach and is a regular contributor for a prison newspaper: InsideTime (readership c60,000).
Jacqueline is passionate about uncovering the potential in people who have been marginalised and eliminating the stigma human beings suffer as a result of mental health issues. She is an author and is working on her second book Mind Beyond Bars – Stories of Transformation and What They Mean for Humanity which describes some of the wonderful changes she has seen in people who have been in prison and charts her journey from a trauma filled childhood to becoming a pioneer in the world of prison reform.
Pete Mears loves to share and help others. He has spent a lifetime suffering in a dark, lonely place and trying to escape the devil he thought was inside him. For 25 years he tried to escape through drink and drugs, even threw the breakdown of his marriage and eventually couldn’t see any other way out resorted to jumping off a bridge. Fortunately, he was saved by a passing policeman and is here to tell his story.
Pete has now realised the irony that the very thing he was trying to escape was himself! He didn’t know he had a choice to be how he wanted to be. He felt negative much of the time and now he realises that is all down to Thought.
Now he can see a way of welcoming negative thoughts in as there is something to be learned from everything.
He has been sober and most importantly happy for 9 months and he wants to share his inner joy with others to spark the light in them. His message is that “you are not alone” and “the solution is simple”.

More About Joe
At the age of 40 I reluctantly began writing about my approach to the Three Principles of Psychology at the request of a publisher.
Since then, I found that writing books to be just another way I can continue to help people find true happiness and peace of mind.
WHAT IS THREE PRINCIPLES PSYCHOLOGY AND HOW IS THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE CREATED?
I hope this newsletter will serve you as an essential guide to a RESILIENT LIFE that includes:
- Prevent Stress & Burnout
- A Sense of Purpose
- Freedom from Addiction, Depression, Anxiety
In 1980, I was fortunate to learn of a paradigm shift happening in psychology. It was in its infancy but showed promise in illuminating the constant principles behind all human experience–whether in people with mental dysfunction or very successful people who were functioning at levels of creativity, resilience, performance, and success.

Unlocking Resilience in Turbulent Times
What is the Transformation Principle? This principle is a realization of the fundamental way our mind works that brings about a “transformative resilience” that radically shifts the way we understand ourselves and our chaotic world. It creates an inner strength and self-confidence, enabling us to see it is our thinking that creates our experience and the quality of our lives.
Burnout prevention and resilience in a changing world. As a leader in the field of addiction therapies and strategies for overcoming fear and burnout, Joseph Bailey has piloted a number of programs on transformative resilience at the Mayo Clinic, The University of Minnesota Medical School―Center for Spirituality and Healing, addiction treatment centers, and healthcare facilities. Thousands of students, clients, and professionals have been inspired and educated by his Transformation Principle. He has provided his program of practical tips and proven methods to first responders and a variety of professions including businesses, social service agencies, hospitals, universities, and school communities.

Articulations of Self and Politics in Activist Discourse: A Discourse Analysis of Critical Subjectivities in Minority Debates (Postdisciplinary Studies in Discourse) (Paperback)
This book focuses on the discursive processes that allow activists to make sense of themselves and of the modes of politics they engage in. It shows how political and metadiscursive awareness develop in tandem with a reconfiguration of one's sense of self. The author offers an integrated pragmatic and poststructuralist perspective on self and subjectivity. He draws on Essex style discourse theory, early pragmatist philosophy, and linguistic pragmatics, arguing for a notion of discourse as a multi-dimensional practice of articulation. Demonstrating the analytical power of this perspective, he puts his approach to work in an analysis of activist discourse on integration and minority issues in Flanders, Belgium. Subjects articulate a whole range of norms, values, identities and narratives to each other when they engage in political discourse. This book offers a way to analyse the logics that structure political awareness and the associated boundaries for discursive self-interpretation.
Jan Zienkowski is a post-doctoral researcher at the Institute for Culture and Society (ICS) at the University of Navarra (UNAV) in Pamplona, Spain. His research focuses on subjectivity, reflexivity and critique as articulated in large-scale political debates on migration, integration and neoliberalism. He seeks to understand how human beings deal with hegemony with varying degrees of critical and political awareness.
