Republican Jen Kiggans flips Democratic Rep. Elaine Luria’s seat in critical GOP victory in Virginia’s 7th Congressional District
This post has been updated to include new results in the 7th District.
WASHINGTON, D.C. – In the most critical Virginia primary election this cycle, Democrat Jon Ossoff raised just under $9 million in the first three months of the year, but Republican challenger, Congressman Jen Kiggans, led his Democratic challenger by more than $5 million in the same period. Ossoff, who had just a few years before been a House Member himself, received a lot of attention recently for his fundraising prowess after winning a special election to fill a vacant House seat in 2017.
Kiggans, who had worked as an aide to former Representative Tom Perriello, was widely considered as well qualified to run, until her campaign raised $1.5 million in its first three months against Ossoff on the general election. After initially running a leaner message in the 7th District, Kiggans has been gaining steam and now has more than 20 campaign stops in her first month on the campaign trail to fundraise for her campaign.
In an effort to highlight her success, Kiggans released a detailed plan to reduce the nation’s deficits and put more money back in the budget for schools. The plan she released today focused on several key policy areas in the district, including health care and education funding, tax reform, education, immigration, and more.
Ossoff, who raised more money in his first month than Kiggans in her entire primary campaign, has promised to hold town hall meetings with constituents and release information on his voting record as a Member of Congress. Ossoff’s campaign is attempting to focus on the issues that are most important to the voters of the 7th District, including education, health care, tax and immigration reform, gun control, and infrastructure.
The latest Washington Post-Schar School poll, Kiggans and Ossoff both had a similar level of support with 32 percent to 30 percent. Kiggans came out on top of the poll with 32 percent of those polled saying that they were voting for her. Ossoff came out third with

Beat the butter and caster sugar together until pale and fluffy. Then add the eggs and beat in for about a minute. You then need to mix in the yogurt, vanilla extract and milk. Combine the flour, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda in a bowl with ¼ tsp fine salt.
Add this into the wet ingredients and stir in. Finally, fold in the blueberries and divide the mixture between the muffin cases.
Bake for 5 mins, then reduce oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and bake for 15-18 mins more until risen and golden, and a metal skewer inserted into the muffin comes out clean.
Cool in the tin for 10 mins, then carefully lift out onto a wire rack to finish cooling. Will keep for 3-4 days in an airtight container.
You can after a day or two, pop them in the microwave for 10-15 secs on high to freshen up.
We often have blueberries in the house, but eating them raw I have never been that impressed, much prefer blackberries, raspberries and strawberries.
I make pancakes for breakfast on a regular basis, both the traditional flat ones and the American style small ones. This time I decided that I would have a go at making some blueberry pancakes and see if this would change my mind about blueberries.
I took my usual pancake mix, in a bowl add:
A cup of self-raising flour
½ tsp of baking powder
½ tsp of vanilla extract
A cup of milk
1 tbsp of caster sugar
This I whisked into a batter. I then added a handful of blueberries (50g).
Using my non-stick pancake frying pan, which as is getting older, I brushed it with some sunflower oil, after heating it up on the hob. I then poured in a spoonful of pancake mixture. You don’t want it too hot, otherwise the inside of the slightly thicker pancakes won’t be cooked.
I left the pancakes to cook until air bubbles started to appear on the top, then turn them over.
I obviously didn’t use enough blueberries as not all the pancakes by the time I cooked the batter had blueberries in them, this in the end wasn’t so bad as the little people in the house didn’t want blueberries in their pancakes.
I served mine with some maple syrup and if you wanted to you could have added some uncooked blueberries too.
I was really pleased with the results, really tasty and I will certainly be cooking them again. I may even now have a go at cooking blueberry muffins.

Very amazing game! I love it so much <3 Even though I'm not a fan of this girl to girl romance, this is super cute!! Amazing game 10/10!
thank you for playing my game! i'm glad you enjoyed it. however it's very sad for me to hear you're not a fan of "girl to girl romance" considering... that's what the whole game is about. i've gotten a lot of comments like this over the years from well-meaning people, but it always feels bad, because to me, when someone feels the need to include that, it implies that enjoying gay media is somehow shameful, and they want to distance themselves from it. i know you didn't mean any harm by it, i just wanted to express my feelings, especially since more people might listen and be able to go forward and not continue the same behavior. thanks again!
Actually quite sweet story (with some horror element), but its name sounds so sadistic xD
Like Time and Space are a BDSM couple and Time is a dom xD
I love this game so much, it's absolutely adorable

wowee the ending stopped me from ever replaying this game again /_\ <3
This was such a sweet game! I just feel like it was forcing the whole Nil thing, and it gave more time for the player to connect with Space instead. It adds more development and character to Space, and opts out to give Nil a sad backstory we're supposed to pity and fall in love with. I really did love this visual novel though, it had a great art style and story!
The cheesy things you would just fall in love with ❤
very cute!!! I really enjoyed getting to know the characters even though it was a short game. the art was great and I loved all the little design details, like Space crying stars and them having cut out symbols for their respective ideas. adorable little wlw game, great job!!
I enjoyed this visual novel so much! I really enjoyed the rewind feature a first of it's kind for visual novels to use it as, a mechanic I think! I also enjoyed the start overs but, with memories made along the way to enhance the story. I knew I was in for a treat anyways as, I've played your RPG game Lonely Wolf Treat on my main channel. Wish I had the money to buy a her tears were my light shirt i'd totally rock it! Keep doing what you do!

Agreement Forged on Softening Energy Hikes
Friday, April 21, 2006
Maryland Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. announced the terms of a tentative agreement with the state's largest power supplier yesterday that he said will help ease customers into paying a 72 percent increase in their electricity bills.
"Our number one priority has been working Marylanders," Ehrlich (R) said at an evening news conference on the front lawn of the governor's mansion. He laid out details of the complex deal while flanked by first lady Kendel Ehrlich and Lt. Gov. Michael Steele, who told reporters, "The weight seems to be lifting from the ratepayers of Maryland."
In fact, the weight is less lifting than shifting.
The deal described yesterday is similar to one Pepco announced two days earlier. Under the terms, which state regulators must approve, 1 million Baltimore Gas and Electric customers will be given an option of shouldering the entire 72 percent increase starting in July or phasing it in over 18 months. Those who choose to phase in the increase will have to pay additional charges of about $15 a month extra for the average customer over two years.
An additional $600 million in relief -- about $4 a month for the average customer -- would hinge on whether BGE's parent company, Constellation Energy Group, gets approval for a merger with a Florida power company. If not, customers who deferred rate increases would have to pay more interest.
That aspect of the deal brought immediate criticism from Ehrlich's two major political rivals, both of whom made their own efforts to address rising electric costs.
"Bob Ehrlich is asking Marylanders to opt-in to a loan shark deal that will cost Maryland families more than 72 percent in the long run," said Jonathan Epstein, Baltimore Mayor Martin O'Malley's campaign manager. He called the $15 monthly fee "Ehrlich's energy tax."
Montgomery County Executive Douglas M. Duncan (D) said it "falls woefully short of protecting the rate payers and does nothing to address the long-term implications of failed energy deregulation."
But Ehrlich heralded the deal as a major political and personal victory, describing how he spent the past 10 days in tense, late-night meetings "awash in spreadsheets."
The governor said it appeared at first as though ratepayers would be left with few options because the General Assembly adjourned April 10 without approving a plan.
Two days later, though, he said BGE officials returned to the bargaining table.
In the end, the governor said the agreement he brokered was only slightly less generous than the one left on the table when state legislators left Annapolis. That deal would have started the rate increases at 15 percent instead of 19 percent, and the monthly fee for deferred payments would have been about $3 monthly, not $15.

Covid-19 vaccines are being developed at a pace faster than for any other disease, yet there are shortages. India will look forward to procuring more vaccines and a proposed IP waiver from global manufacturers.
Covid-19 vaccines were developed at an astonishing pace. No other disease has seen so many vaccines developed so fast. Out of 250 candidate vaccines that were being developed, at least 10 have already been approved for emergency use in different parts of the world. Most of the first flush of approved vaccines were based on two technologies never used in humans earlier. These include mRNA-based vaccines of Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, and the viral vector-based vaccines of Astra Zeneca/Oxford University, Sputnik V, Janssen of Johnson and Johnson, and Coronavac of CanSino Biologics from China.

Product Life cycle in Retailing21/08/2022 0 By indiafreenotes
The retail life cycle theory holds that retail institutions experience the cycle of innovation, growth, maturity and decline, like goods and services that they sell, similar to that of the product life cycle. The market traits and strategies which are taken by retail institutions should differ in variable stages of retail life cycle. The theory of retail life cycle is first introduced by William Davidson W. R, Betas A. D and Bass S. J in 1976.
Different stages of retail life cycle
In the innovation stage, in which the reformation and development of business methods promote the emergence of new retail formats, the operating characteristics of new formats have not been understood by both consumers and the industry, lowering market share. Moreover, because of the development cost of new formats, it is hard for retail companies, which apply the new methods, to make profit at this stage.
This theory holds that the innovation in retail institutions is realized through the reformation of business methods. The reformation of business methods is mainly realized by decreasing the cost of operation and the price of products or services. However, it may also be innovated through improvement of product mix, customer service, sales, store selection, store design or sales promotion, business hours, logistics system and other ways, some of which are usually combined and innovated. Sometimes the company which leads the new retail format may become the target of hit (Roth, V. J., & Klein, S. 1993). During the period, the emergence of new forms can also lead to the blow of competitors and retaliation. In this stage, it has little impact on the existing competitive structure for its low market share.
In the growth stage, Langlois, R., & Robertson, P. (1995) points out that the new business formats start to be accepted by consumers and traits of new formats are widely understood in the industry. As a result, the market share begins to ascend and copycats are also on the rise. The competition between companies that apply traditional methods and new methods gets more intense. At that time, companies who have reformed their operating activities firstly can increase the marker sales and the profitability.
At the meanwhile, the competition between companies of new and original retail formats begin to turn out white-hot. With the rapid growth of reformed companies, customers of companies without innovation intend to choose products and services of innovative companies. Therefore, the unreformed retail institutions begin to take various actions to reduce the loss of customers. In fact, many companies which use original retail formats meet challenges of new formats with the positive attitude and apply some new methods in the existing formats. The competition of different retail formats is unique and increase the vitality in the market.
Later in the stage, with the wide application of new formats, the competition of companies which accept new formats will emerge and augment. The competition of different retail formats does not take the main role in the market. In the competition of new formats, some companies lacking competence start considering to leave the market. The remaining companies are inclined to take actions like improvement of service standard, expanding the commodity portfolio and improvement of shop facilities. Despite the continuing growth of sales, the cost will surge as well. Apart from the direct cost, indirect cost will increase sharply including promotion cost and the expense incurred by the increasing size of the organization. The cost may be higher than the sales and companies will face the non-profit situation.
In this stage, companies of new retail formats are incapable of taking more market share and expand the customers’ base. In this period, companies which won out in the growth stage are trying to maintain the market share. However, the profit margin begins to decline because the new retail formats could not make any company have edge on the others and companies have to decrease the price in order to defeat competitors. Therefore, how to decrease the cost is the main problem that each enterprise faces. In order to pursue the differential advantage in the period of competition, the enterprises compete to make the market more mature and stable. Characteristics of new formats have been gradually lost and new formats change to traditional formats. Thus it becomes an important opportunity for the emergency of another new format.
For chain businesses, in this stage, they need to consider to close inefficient shops and open new shops in good addresses as well as develop to diversified and compound retail organization (Turner, S. 2002). It should be pointed out that the retail format even in the maturity stage can be improved to make the company come back to the growth stage. According to the research of Sun, L., Kay, R., & Chew, M. (2009), department stores in the United States has been in the maturity stage after World War II. After that, the development of shopping centers gave department stores an opportunity to grow again because department stores were different at that time form before and they were reformed based on the model of shopping centers.
In decline stage, the new formats have become the traditional ones and with the change of consumers’ buying behavior and the appearance of newer formats, the market begins to shrink and traditional formats (original new formats) could not make any profit but may suffer great loss due to the decreasing sales. During this period, some companies decide to leave the market. As a result, the competition among the same retail formats is not serious but the competition of different formats will get increasingly intense.
Companies of the traditional format compete through the price, which makes their profit get less and less. Companies of the new format have edge on the others due to their advantages in other aspects like service, product quality and operation style. The situation of decline stage is similar to the innovation stage but in the term of traditional formats.
After this stage, the market will enter the next life cycle.

Abstract: The characteristics of blood flow patterns detected by transvaginal pulsed and color Doppler ultrasonography were evoluated in ectopic pregnanacies. Two hundred and fifteen patients with surgically and histopathologically confirmed ectopic preg-nancies were included in this study. Of 215 patients, 113 (52.5 %) had an ectopic trophoblastic flow. 106 of them (93.8 %)showed a typical trophoblastic flow characterized by a high-velocity and low-impedance flow, whereas 7 (6.2 %) had bizarre blood waveforms including high-impedance and reversed diastolic flow. It was concluded that although most of the cases with ectopic pregnancy demonstrate a typical flow, a wide range of flow waveforms including some bizarre forms may be detected. In the presence of ectopic trophoblastic flow suggesting an ectopic pregnancy, both ovaries should be visualized seperately and it should be cleary demonstrated that this flow is obtained seperate from ovaries and uterus.
Keywords: Ectopic pregnancy, ultrasonography, color Doppler, Trophoblastic flow.

It’s much of the same for the Buccaneers today. Outside of Jason Pierre-Paul being upgraded to full participation, everyone had the same participation level in Friday’s practice.
Look for Vita Vea to try and give it a full go in Saturday’s practice. If he can and wakes up fine Sunday morning and has no setbacks, expect the rookie to make his season debut on Monday night.
It’s looking bleak right now that Beau Allen will be able to go on Monday, but we will know more about his status come Saturday afternoon.
Other then that, the Buccaneers should be as healthy as they have been all year in their week three matchup with the Steelers.
Below is the full injury report:

Led by travel and aviation trade bodies such as Association of British Travel Agents (ABTA), the day of action will call upon UK Government to allow a safe return to international travel by properly implementing the Global Travel Taskforce’s plan for a traffic light system, expanding the Green List in line with the scientific evidence and making restrictions more appropriate, whilst following a strong Red list to guard against variants.
The Travel Day of Action will task a motion for the UK Government to bring forward a package of tailored financial support, such as the extension of furlough, in recognition of the travel sector’s ability to bounce back being much slower than anticipated.
Robert Hough CBE, chairman of Peel Airports, said: “Doncaster Sheffield Airport is proud to add its voice to the Travel Day of Action and stand by our aviation and travel industry partners in asking the Government for clarity and transparency on the return to safe international travel in time for Summer.
“Regional airports are vital not only for getting passengers on their well-earned summer holidays to spend time with their families.
"They also have an important economic role to play in the regions they serve too, providing jobs and acting as a catalyst for economic growth.
"We trust that the Government will take note of the day of action and offer vital support and clarity for safe international travel in time for the peak summer season along with other parts of Europe.”
Doncaster Sheffield Airport is responsible for an annual contribution of £67m to the wider economy.

Sun. roundup: Good Counsel looks good in win
FOLLOW RIVALSHIGH: Follow us on Twitter | Friend us on Facebook
As the game wore on - and St. Xavier maintained its one-touchdown lead over Good Counsel - two numbers figured to be in their favor: The size of their roster (more than double that of their opponenet) and the temperature in Ohio (92 degrees at game time) on a sunny Sunday.
As it turns out, the only number that mattered was on the stat sheet: Turnovers.
Olney (Md.) Good Counsel, No. 17 in the RivalsHigh Top 100, took advantage of six turnovers by No. 43 Cincinnati (Ohio) St. Xavier to help produce three fourth-quarter touchdowns and come away with a 21-6 victory.
The victory was an impressive one for Maryland - going on the road to beat a powerful Ohio club. But Good Counsel coach Bob Milloy was more impressed with his defense.
"Our defense played great," he said on TV at the end of the game. "Our offense was embarrassing. But we'll get that corrected."
True, the defense did produce those six turnovers, but it was offense that gave the team the lead for good.
Trailing 6-0, Dorian O'Daniel put Good Counsel on the board when he scored on a 3-yard run. Kyle Hamby's point after gave Good Counsel a 7-6 lead.
Then the defense took over.
Michael Jefferson returned an interception for a 58-yard score to make it 14-6. Moments later, Stefon Diggs (who had an 83-yard punt return for a score called back earlier in the quarter) scored on a 50-yard interception return.
St. Xavier started strongly. After holding Good Counsel to a three-and-out, it produced a 70-yard scoring drive, capped by an 11-yard run by Conor Hundley. Sean Duggan's point-after attempt went wide right.
From there, Good Counsel dominated. And had it not had two touchdowns called back and a missed field goal, they result could have been worse - and decided earlier.
In other games involving Top 100 teams Sunday:
No. 91 Cincinnati (Ohio) Moeller 35, Huber Heights (Ohio) Wayne 28
Memo to coach John Rodenberg: Whatever you did with your team at halftime, do it again.
After looking slow and sluggish for much of the first half, Cincinnati (Ohio) Moeller - ranked No. 91 in the RivalsHigh 100 - came out with a fire and passion after the break and scored 21 unanswered points to stun Huber Heights (Ohio) Wayne, 35-28.
Moeller senior tailback Tucker Skove accounted for all five Moeller touchdowns - including the game-winning score on a leap over the pile from 1-yard out with five seconds remaining in the game - and finished with 220 yards.
But as much as the second half was dominated by Moeller, the first half was an offensive display by Wayne and its four-star quarterback and Ohio State commit Braxton Miller.
Miller scored the game's first touchdown on a 27-yard run, and then followed that up with a 75-yard run where he pump faked, tucked the ball and simply outran the Moeller defense to the end zone. After a 17-yard interception return by Darien Thorton for Wayne's third touchdown, Miller added a fourth - this time on a 21-yard run.
Wayne led 28-14 at the half and Miller had more than 200 yards. In the second half, he had just five and was sacked multiple times by a Moeller defense that suddenly showed some spark in getting off the line, putting pressure on the star quarterback.
Offensively, Moeller's comeback was rooted in both the legs of Skove and the arm of senior quarterback Charlie Fiessinger, who made several big throws to put his team in scoring position. While Fiessinger looked uneasy in the first half in his first varsity start and shared time under center with junior quarterback Spencer Iacovone, he looked poised and confident in the second half, stepping up into the pocket with a solid presence.
Fiessinger's 11-yard screen pass to Skove late in the third quarter tied the game at 28-28, before Skove's final game-winning dive.

Motion for leave to bring in a Bill (Standing Order No. 23)
I beg to move,
That leave be given to bring in a Bill to make provision about the appropriate level of access to NHS services and accommodation for mothers with perinatal mental illness; and for connected purposes.
The Bill is in addition to my other Bill on the need for accountability and transparency in the commissioning of mental health services. I thank the Minister for Community and Social Care for meeting me and the team from the Royal College of Psychiatrists, led by the president, Professor Simon Wessely. The royal college fully supports the Bills.
We have come a long way in improving attitudes to mental illness over the past few years and I pay tribute to the work of the current Government and the coalition Government for their efforts to improve the quality and provision of care for people with mental ill health. Nowhere is improvement needed more than for women with perinatal mental illness. Perinatal mental illnesses are those that start or are already present during pregnancy and the initial year after birth, which is a time when the risk of mental illness is heightened. Approximately 10% to 20% of women will experience a mental illness in the year after childbirth. In fact, a woman is 33 times more likely to be admitted to a psychiatric ward after giving birth than at any other time in her life. That means tens of thousands of women in England every year.
The consequences of not intervening adequately can be severe. These women might be catatonic or delusional, experiencing hallucinations or suicidal thoughts, and they might be unable to recognise their family or even their baby. Not only is this a traumatic experience for them, but, unsurprisingly, the child’s development can be severely impaired. Tragically, suicide is a leading cause of maternal death associated with approximately 15% of overall deaths in the perinatal period. Although such cases are rarer, some women will kill the child as a result of their illness. Recently, we will all have seen in the media the coroner’s report on the tragic case of Charlotte Bevan, who committed suicide along with her baby. Her parents call for extra perinatal units, and the coroner has called for better services.
Aside from the tremendous human cost, there is an economic cost that far outweighs the cost of providing adequate treatment. A comprehensive economic evaluation conducted last year by the London School of Economics and the Centre for Mental Health calculated that the annual cost of perinatal mental illness to the NHS is £1.2 billion and that the total cost to society is £8.1 billion. Although many cases of perinatal mental illness can be managed by services based in the community, specialised care is required in thousands of cases each year and the mother will have to be admitted to hospital. In such circumstances, typical adult psychiatric wards are inadequate as they are not equipped to allow the baby and mother to remain together and bond. Specialised mother and baby units, which are the subject of the Bill, are designed with that in mind, and research shows that women with serious perinatal mental illness will have better outcomes and better relationships with their infants if cared for in these specialised units.
Guidance from the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence accordingly recommends that mothers who require in-patient treatment for any mental health problem in the perinatal period should be admitted to such a unit with their child. Last month, I had the pleasure of seeing the fantastic work that the specialist units do first hand when I visited the Margaret Oates mother and baby unit in east London. The Scottish NHS is some years ahead of ours when it comes to providing such vital services. Since 2003, the Mental Health (Care and Treatment) (Scotland) Act, which was the inspiration for this Bill, has stipulated that commissioners must provide enough mother and baby unit services so that women with depression who require in-patient admission and their infants can be accommodated together.
There is no similar provision in English law and both NHS England and NICE have acknowledged that there is a significant national shortfall in the provision and distribution of mother and baby units of approximately 60 to 80 beds. As a result, women with serious mental illness are forced either to be admitted without their babies to general adult psychiatric wards or to travel hundreds of miles out of their area to a specialist mother and baby unit. Both have damaging consequences for the mother and baby. Dr Liz McDonald, one of the country’s leading perinatal psychiatrists, calls this
“the bleakest of all postcode lotteries”.
I agree, and the Bill seeks to correct that.
It is important to note that the number of beds needed is not the only consideration. Thought must also be given to where they are located. I recently met Dr Giles Berrisford, a senior perinatal psychiatrist who runs an excellent mother and baby unit in Birmingham. He told me that he has received patients from as far away as Cornwall and that new motherhood, the onset of mental illness and having to travel huge distances for care, being separated from families, friends and communities, are a toxic combination. That is why the Bill will make it a requirement that 95% of the women who need such services should be able to access them within 75 miles. Those figures were recommended to me by experts at the Royal College of Psychiatrists, who strongly support the Bill.
The distance element is innovative. I appreciate it might raise an eyebrow or two in the Chamber, but it is just a different way of conceptualising the rights that already exist. For years, patients have had the legal right to access NHS treatment for physical illnesses within a maximum period of 18 weeks. Unfortunately, this 18-week target would not be relevant to acute perinatal mental illnesses, whereas, as I have explained, the problem is with both the shortage and the location of these services. That is why the Bill thinks slightly differently and uses distance, rather than time, as a basis. This is novel for the NHS, but innovation is not a bad thing.
If we can enshrine a time-based right in law, with no ill effects, why not a distance-based one? It is not unheard of. In the United States, Kentucky, Illinois and Minnesota have laws about the maximum distance patients have to travel for care. Moreover, the financial implications of the Bill are actually positive. An evaluation by the London School of Economics and the Centre for Mental Health estimates the cost of providing the 60 to 80 beds that NHS England and NICE say are needed to be approximately £7 million. I am pleased that the Government have already earmarked extra funding for perinatal mental services more generally. In the March 2015 Budget, a pledge was made to spend £75 million over five years on improving perinatal mental illness services, but no detail has been forthcoming about what it means in practice.
The Bill complements existing Government spending plans, but importantly would serve to compel NHS England to act and focus its attention on these much-needed mother and baby units. When I have spoken to colleagues about the Bill, some have cautioned that it might lead to legal action being taken if these services are meant to be available but are not. I am pleased to say that these concerns are unfounded. The Royal College of Psychiatrists informs me that it is not aware of the similar Scottish law having led to any such cases.
I have also been asked why these services are a special case, deserving of their own Bill. There is a particularly strong argument for action in this case. As we know, the Government have set the laudable objective of giving mental health parity of esteem with physical health, reflecting the fact that unfortunately mental healthcare has lagged behind physical healthcare for so long, and perinatal mental healthcare has lagged behind other areas of mental healthcare and so has been doubly disadvantaged in many ways. This and the consequences of not getting this care right for mothers and babies justify the Bill and the novel approach it takes. As for whether the Bill will set a precedent, that, as right hon. and hon. colleagues will know, is ultimately within Parliament’s control.
In summary, the Bill reflects current NICE guidance and will result in better outcomes for the mothers and infants concerned—
Order. I am extremely grateful.
We have a moral duty to make sure the Bill is fully considered and taken on board by the Government.
Order. We have got the thrust of it. I am afraid that people will have to rediscover the habit of staying to time. The hon. Gentleman did so in the last Parliament, but he will need to brush up a little bit. None the less, we are grateful to him.
Question put and agreed to.
That Rehman Chishti, Norman Lamb, Frank Field, Tim Loughton, Fiona Bruce, Tom Brake, Jim Shannon, Valerie Vaz, James Berry, Jeremy Lefroy and Kelly Tolhurst present the Bill.
Mr Rehman Chishti accordingly presented the Bill.
Bill read the First time; to be read a Second time on Friday 20 November 2015, and to be printed (Bill 78).

The Nexus Q page in the Google Play store says the media streamer is "no longer for sale." Does this mean Google has given up on the device? Maybe.
What a year for technology, what with all its tiny tablets and overhauled operating systems. But for every Nexus 7 triumph, a Nexus Q disaster reared its gruesome head. Here are the worst screw-ups the tech industry endured in 2012. Advanced warning: They're not for the faint of heart.
Google is reportedly sending letters to customers who pre-ordered its bizarre media streaming orb, saying it needs time to make it better." Ouch.
The Nexus Q is an odd little piece of hardware, filling a very small niche rather expensively. It could, however, turn out to be more useful than first thought, because a simple hack seems to bring it to life with the Android launcher, apps and as a result—you guessed it—Netflix.
Google unveiled its media-streaming glowing orb to many oohs and ahhs, followed by head-scratches. The thing looks cool. And it sounds good, both in concept and fidelity. But two major questions remain: Who is it for, and how well does it work?
Google's Nexus Q is many thing to many people. A miniature Death Star, an alien being, necessary but overwrought or, umm, a media streamer. It also has an extra, hidden function: it works as a magic 8-ball.
Google revealed a lot at Google I/O: a shimmering tablet at a good price, a sci-fi home theater orb, seriously sophisticated search, and Jelly Beans. It also revealed an unsettling lack of human understanding.
We've spent some time with Google's new media Orb, and put our eye-orbs all over it. It's a funky little device, but is it funky in the right ways?
The Nexus Q is Google's $299 cloud service-streaming box—er—orb. It's only for Google Play and YouTube. Plus! It has trippy flashing lights and looks like an alien weapon. But is it any good?

He's got some new tracks coming out on the ever banging Man Recordings, produced by DJ Amazing Clay.
He's touring Europe too. Go check him out...

I like that video alot. Here's Znobia cutting it up. Crazy energy.
Some new joints from Portugal (I think) off an album called Africa love Bombastic
DJ SoLman - Cuzi O Mambo Zig Zag
DJ Maravilha - Megamix Kuduro
The majority of the beats on this mix are quite a bit slower than your usual hyperjacking kuduro BPMs, nodding more to R'n'B, reggae and pop. Not quite sure what to make of this, seems to have someone playing a ringtone along as part of the melody.
Dj Perigoso - Parvoiçes
Is this because its from Portugal rather than Angola, going down a more commercial road, or is this just less dancefloor orientated strains that I just haven't heard. Or is Kuduro slowing down ?

I used to play Hip Hop back in the day. In the late 90s Me and Dave from Punks Jump Up went to New York on a Ragga-Hip Hop record hunt. We found tonnes of amazing records and I picked up a Bobby Konders mixtape (which I need to rip for you one day) from Rock & Soul which kind of got me into straight dancehall. On that trip I also found the 12" of this classic PR party break which still sounds hot. If you don't know it, here it is...
Frankie Cutlass - Puerto Rico

'The Octopus' rules for many reasons:
He is so fast on that damn thing his tentacle-like arms become a blur before your eyes.
He has the coolest 80s looking MPC sample trigger pad thing.
He samples his own voice live. And dog woof sounds.
He does Champeta-Trance.
Champeta music sounds like kuduro sometimes.
The Afro Colombians living in Cartagena and Barranquilla on Colombia's northern carribean coast make Champeta music.Traditionally a mix of African zouk and Tropical latin rhythms, it recently seems to be getting a lo-fi electronic overhawl (read as: RAVE) and is even getting blended with Trance and reggaeton. Don't know if I could listen to it everyday but definitely feeling the DIY aesthetics a la baile funk.

Writing grime song titles is really dull because you always have to write about 43 artist names followed by a tiny song title. Can't they all stick together in bands called Rah or something. I don't mind writing it when the music is this good.
Aftershock have been putting out alot of good records- A few years back they put out hammers like Crazy Titch's first single 'I can see U' which is a classic. Label boss and producer Terror Danjahs beats are getting more crazy by the day and his new album Harddrive vol 1. is tuffer than ever. Some tracks are just mental like his grime version of Planet Rock. But some are literally white hot like this Barrington Levy sampling funster. This is proper grime for 2008. I predict a good year.
Terror Danjah ft. Levy, Badness, Tripple Threat, Teddy Bruk, Shut & Bruza - Work
Buy Harddrive Vol.1 here
Its been a bit slow here at Ghetto Bassquake but i'm going to pick up the pace a bit. Kicking off boring January with some Argentotreats sent to me by Grant from Whats Up Buenos Aires and resident at the Zizek night. They even got live at Zizek podcasts.
Princesa has surely got to blow up this year. Here is a hypnotizin new minimal drumladen remix by Marcelo Fabian.
Princesa - Aqui Princesa (Marcelo Fabian remix)
Check back soon for some hot new kuduro, fresh Terror Danjah grime and my blogariddims mix. Happy New Year!

Launched one week apart, these are the only two phones under Rs 10,000 to offer 3 GB RAM. While Intex Cloud Swift is priced at Rs 8,888, the Coolpad Note 3 costs Rs 8,999. In terms of price along and brand value the Intex Cloud Swift has surely an upper hand. But the Coolpad Note 3 too is stuffed with attractive features. So let’s delve a bit deeper and see which one is a better value for money device.
The Intex Cloud Swift has a very interesting fine criss-cross pattern design on the rear panel. The phone measures 144.5 x 72.5 x 8.9 mm and weighs 140 grams. The Intex Cloud Swift has a dull metal surround on the edges too.
The Coolpad Note 3 too is quite attractive with matte finish back panel and almost zero bezel on the left and right hand side of the display. Plus it has got curved edges and thus offers a good grip. The Note 3 has a shiny metal finish on the edges. The rear of the phone has a fingerprint sensor too. The Coolpad Note 3 weighs 155 grams and measures 151 x 77 x 9.3 mm.
One can here say that the Note 3 is a heavier and bigger device but as per our experience, it is quite comfortable to hold and use. As far as look is concerned, it is open for debate.
The Coolpad Note 3 has a 5.5 inch IPS display with resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels but it does not have any protection. The Intex Cloud Swift on the other hand has a 5 inch IPS display with the same 720 x 1280 pixels resolution and is also has the Asahi Dragontrail Glass protection.
You have to see what size works better for you. Do not factor in the Asahi Dragontrail glass into this, as we strongly recommend that you use a tempered glass screen guard no matter if your device has any protective glass or not.
Processor & Memory
The Intex Cloud Swift has a quad-core processor clocked at 1.3 GHz, with a ridiculous 3 GB of RAM. The internal storage stands at 16 GB to which you can add another 128 GB via a micro SD card.
The Coolpad Note 3 has a 1.3 GHz octa-core processor which also runs with 3 GB of RAM. The internal storage stands at 16 GB to which you can add another 64 GB via a micro SD card.
The Coolpad Note 3 is armed with a better processor, which thus should outperform the Cloud Swift but it has less expandable storage space than the Intex handset. Also keep in mind with quad core processor and 3 GB RAM, the Intex smartphone is quite a powerful smartphone too and should not have any problem in multitasking or while playing high end games.
Both these phones run on Android Lollipop (5.1), and have mild customisations on the UI.
The Coolpad Note 3 has a 3000 mAh battery, while the Intex Cloud Swift has a 2500 mAh battery. But owing to bigger display and octa core processor, the Note 3 has higher battery power requirement. So we expect the devices to offer identical back up with similar usages.
The Intex Cloud Swift has an 8 megapixel primary camera with autofocus, face beauty mode, smile shot, face detection, voice capture, video recording, and flash. The front of the phone has a 5 megapixel selfie taker on the front.
The Coolpad Note 3 has a 13 megapixel primary camera which comes with autofocus, 5p lens, HDR, burst shot, CMOS sensor, 1080p video recording ability, and an LED flash light. It offers a 5 megapixel front camera.
Spec for spec, the Coolpad Note 3 wins this round with ease; however we usually wait for a real world test to declare a winner.
The Coolpad Note 3 is a dual-SIM 4G phone with GPS (A-GPS), Bluetooth 4.0, and WiFi.
The Intex Cloud Swift is also a dual-SIM 4G phone with GPS (A-GPS), Bluetooth, and WiFi.
The Intex Cloud Swift has higher storage capacity, but the Coolpad Note 3 has a larger display, better processor, larger battery, and a better camera too. So at this point of time the Coolpad Note 3 seems like a better choice. Currently we are reviewing the Coolpad Note 3 so keep checking The Mobile Indian for our final verdict on the phone.


An automatic sliding gate opens by sliding along the property fence line. A sliding gate is usually a single gate which, when open, may be hidden behind the fence or wall.
This type of gate is often used in commercial and industrial settings, and is popular in residential applications where there is no room for a swing gate. There are many different types of automatic swing gates, and the specific technical information will vary depending on the type of gate you are inquiring about.
However, some common features of automatic swing gates include sensors that detect when someone or something is trying to pass through the gate, and then the gate will automatically open to allow passage. Other features may include timers that automatically close the gate after a certain amount of time, or that open the gate at certain times of the day.
Some automatic swing gates may also have keypads or other devices that allow authorized users to enter a code to open the gate.


The State Working Committee of the All Progressives Congress in Abia has said that the party’s chairman, Mr. Donatus Nwankpa, who was reportedly abducted on Monday night, has yet to regain his freedom from his abductors.
News Agency of Nigeria reports that Nwankpa was abducted by gunmen while the party was tidying up preparations ahead of President Muhammadu Buhari’s presidential rally on Tuesday.
The Publicity Secretary of the party, Mr. Benedict Godson, told newsmen in Umuahia on Thursday that the chairman was still being held hostage by his abductors.
He expressed the confidence that Nwankpa “is well and safe” and that the party was waiting for his safe return.
He said: We believe that he is well and safe, but we plead with his abductors to help us by releasing him. Right now, we are not accusing anybody,” Godson said; adding that the party “does not know whether or not his kidnap has political undertone.”
He said that the party was doing the necessary thing to ensure his safe return, adding that “everything is under control.”
“I believe that the situation is being handled the way it should,” he said, when he was asked whether the party had formally reported the matter to the state Police command.
The party’s spokesman also said that it was not to the knowledge of the party whether the abductors had made demand for ransom so far.
He said that Nwankpa was kidnapped along with his personal aide, Obioma Chigbu, who was reportedly manhandled and later set free.
Chigbu was said to have been released by their assailants when they discovered that he was bleeding from the suture he had after a hernia surgery.
Godson said that Nwankpa, who was travelling from Umuahia to Aba, was kidnapped around 11.00pm at Arungwa Junction on the Enugu-Port Harcourt Expressway.
He said that the chairman was travelling without his security aide when the assailants struck.
NAN reliably learnt that the abductors shot into the car and immobilised it before whisking the chairman and his aide away.
Meanwhile, the Police Public Relations Officer, SP Geoffrey Ogbonna, told NAN that the incident was being investigated.
Already, Rev. Augustine Ehiemere, the Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance and Inter-Party Advisory Council, has issued a statement in Umuahia, condemning the abduction.

This is the tip I found by chance on the “The Waving Flag” blog of Martin who runs Vexillia. I found Vexillia during my interest in impetus rules and italian figure makers.
Then I dropped out of that and very recently came to Martins blog by way of one of his recent posts and then having wandered around his blog site again I found the tips section. And wet pallettes update from 2016!
OK so I am slow on the uptake but I do remember a lot of discussion about wet pallettes a while ago (was it in 2016 though?) and it passsed me by. It so happened this time round I was in the middle of a lot of painting and well the article or should I say tip caught my eye.
And yes I followed Martins advice and it works and works really well.
I had some ochre base paint in the wet pallette box for the best part of 3 weeks – no mould in sight and the paint remained perfectly workable.
So thank you Martin.
This is also my 50th post so I can say that starting this blog and achieving this very small milestone in the blogging world is in lots of ways due to the work of others. All those other blogs I have followed over the last 10 years for example.
Here are some that have inspired my gaming, painting and an appreciation of what blogging has contributed to the wargames hobby.
Thank you to one and all. And for those omitted from the list, thank you as well – it is the variety that matters – the different tastes and interests mean there is always something for everyone to enjoy or discover.
And my whole DBA 15mm world received a massive jolt one day in 2007. I picked up a magazine in WH Smiths at a railway station. Nothing untoward you say, except it was a copy of Battlegames published by Henry Hyde.
Subsequently in one of his magazines I read about the beginners guide to blogging by Greg Horne and his Duchy of Alzheim blog. At the time with zero wargames playing going on blogging looked like a waste of good gaming or even painting time.
Much later, much much later in the atlantic publishers era I read in Battlegames Henry’s guide to starting your own blog. Still not for me. And the site link above is Henry’s consolidated site now – the guide I followed in the magazine has been removed. But his main site mentions it.
Another site Henry introduced me to was meeples & miniatures blog and Neil Shuck, and that led me to podcasts – but thats another story.
Some of my favorite blogs have been the following…………
Pauls Bods – absolutely excellent painting of 1/72 plastics and most recently metals by tumbling dice
Wargaming for Grown Ups – great all round musings and plenty of 1/72 ancients plastics that got me out of a 15mm DBx rut and into simpler gaming with plastics and even modifying them
Plastic Soldier Review – has simply fed my 1/72 craze
Blogs of War – source of so many great blogs
Keith’s Wargaming Blog – I found Keith’s blog back in 2009 and have enjoyed his writing
The Sharp End of the Brush – another early blog discovery, plenty of written word and 1/72 wargaming
Olicanalads Games – battle reports, scenarios and scenery – another early discovery I have regularly visited

Pijlie’s Wargames Blog – lots of variety including some 1/72 material
History in 1/72 – great for ideas about what you can do in 1/72
Parade Ground – got me back into 20mm metals with the likes of tumbling dice/newline/SHQ alongside plastics – motivated my purchase of Late Romans by Miniart. excellent 1/72 ideas, painting and figures
The Grand Duchy of Stollen – simply drove my enthusiasm for 18th century imaginations wargaming
The Eastern Garrison – pics of the much missed figures of greenwood and ball – the garrison metals I always wanted were the Carthaginians. Great archive.
Sumer to Sargon – exemplary painting of early ancients
Harness and Array – excellent medieval material, motivated me to do or rather start my stoke field project. Sadly it is my one 28mm enterprise and remains unfinished despite the fantastic figures.
Dark Age Wargames – although it only ran from 2006 to 2016 I found this site very useful for my interests in the Dark Ages
Cameronian only a game – good 1/72 selection – one of the first blogs I found
Camisado – always top of his game and consistently wonderful blog about the 15th/16th century european wars
Je Lay Emprins – excellent figure painting and another blog that stoked my interest in wars of the roses – no pun intended!
Aut Ceasar Aut Nihil – ok all 28mm but I just love the figures and posts
Dalauppror – great discussions/observations on the hobby and gaming ideas and one of my early blog discoveries
The League of Augsburg – drew me back into the late 17th century – sheer quality of material hard to beat
Wars of Louis Quartorze – also drew me back into the late 17th century with a wealth of information
Pauls Wargames Blog – a great variety of posts and a good read
The Wars of Wine and Cheese – another imagination thought stream that got me revisiting horse and muskest warfare – but always with a “fantastic” leaning
Vintage Wargaming – so enjoyed the old metal ranges being replayed I rebased mine and used them again
Bennos Figures – great painting inspirations
Baueda – got me properly going with PVA priming and dipping my toe in the plastics world
DBx wargaming with 20mm soft plastic figures – wealth of ideas about gaming with 1/72 plastics
John’s Wargames page – another blog that got me convinced to go down the soft plastics 1/72 route
Heres no great matter – sustained my interest in 15mm, showed me the drawbacks but pleasure of ancient and medieval warfare (AMW) and lots of small but great ideas like dice army pics to show each turn development when reporting a game
20mm wargamer – lots of 1/72 plastics ideas
Dux Homunculorum – painting inspiration for my 1/72 plastics
Jim Duncan Wargamer – plenty of painting and ideas
Carpat’Land – simply amazing figures to enjoy especially in medieval period and L’art de la guerre ruleset appeared to me here
Steves Random Musings on Wargaming – consistently offers a variety on interesting ideas for me – books and war of the spanish succession to name but two
20mm figures and modelling – wargaming info provided lots of useful links plus news, rulesets views and some interesting carolingian material
the duchy of tradgardland – another imaginations find in my ealry days of reading other peoples blogs
As I say these are just some of the wargame blogs I have enjoyed – some are no longer updated but I think all I have listed can still be visited.
Thanks to every author who has committed time to share their ideas on this fascinating hobby.

Let’s kick some ice!
No, just kidding, let’s just watch this panda eat a popsicle instead.
That first pun is actually from Batman & Robin where Arnold Schwarzenegger played Mr. Freeze. Do you guys remember that?
ANYWAY, what made me think of all that was ice puns! Like, chill out! And cool off! And stay cool! Somehow those last two counted as two different ice puns in Batman & Robin, I think?
So if it’s not to much to ice, let’s all have some good clean fun out there today! Like this panda.
(I wanted to write novels … but a panda novella will do.)

Our intent is to illustrate some of the old English stories through dance, music, verse and the occasional song, and to enjoy ourselves whilst doing it.
The dances are in the Border style of Morris dancing. Border Morris originated in the Welsh border areas; the origins are lost in the mists of time as with all Morris. There are, we believe, only 4 recorded, traditional, Border Morris dances – all the other dances have been made up in a similar style. We have carried on this living tradition by adopting and adapting dances we have seen and tying them together with a story.
The stories are traditionally English; mainly pre-Christian. They combine narration, dance, music and occasionally song, and each last about 20 to 30 minutes. There are currently five stories:
- The Green Man – The cycle of seasons and the spirit of the Wildwood
- The Knuckerhole Dragon – A traditional story from around Arundel
- Herne the Hunter – Another one of those mythical good(ish) guys
- The Kings Men – The story of the Rollright stones near Oxford
- Cerridwen Cauldron – The story of the birth of Taliesin
- John Barleycorn – The tale of the growing and harvest of barley

Light fermented and light roasting Four Season Oolong has attributes of no astringency for longer brew time.
Leaffree Four Season Oolong originates from Nantou county in Taiwan.
In early years, people called it “not knowing spring” because its sprouting period is earlier than other varieties.
Because of this characteristic, Four Season teas are harvested many times a year.
Good plantation managements enable higher productions and stable qualities of Four Season Oolong.
This oolong is light fermented tea which helps highlight the original elegant aroma of this variety.
Four Season Oolong is ball-shaped with the characteristic of ginger lily aroma.
Its tea liquid is light green and clear, along with the aroma of ginger lily and fresh taste.

Blackhawk Golf Club (Spruce Grove, AB)
Designer: Rod Whitman
The Scorecard: While Rod Whitman’s Wolf Creek was always regarded as a fine golf course, it was the course builder’s Blackhawk that demonstrated he was a major talent as a golf designer. With wide fairways, scruffy bunkers, greens with plenty of movement and a smart, if occasionally awkward routing, Blackhawk is a throwback to another era, and certainly among the best modern designs built in Canada in the last 25 years. Yes, there are a couple of unusual moments in the design – but overall it is smart and fun to play. Whitman has only had a few chances to design in Canada (Sagebrush, Cabot Links, Wolf Creek), and while Cabot may be hailed as his best, Blackhawk is what defines him as a designer.
- Aesthetics. I’m a sucker for Whitman’s bunkers, with their ragged edges and wild movements. If that occasionally means you’ll get stuck in one of the bays of these messy hazards without an obvious shot, so be it. Bunkers were meant to be a hazard, something Whitman points out time and again at Blackhawk.
- The Back Nine. Yes, the front nine is solid, and I think it has some of the best holes (#2, with its approach to a plateau green is sensational, and the par four 5th, with its fairway narrowing to a difficult green site is smart), the course is very solid from the 11th hole on. Playing off a ridge high above the fairway on the 11th, players descend into a rugged river valley for the remainder of the nine. Great holes abound – the 12th with its heroic carry; the 14th with its fescue-lined fairway, and 15th, a par five where the fairway dips down a hill and gives away to the green.
- The close. The 435-yard 18th, with its angled green set on a hillside and protected by bunkers below the right of the putting surface, is one of the best closing holes in Canada.
- The routing. As much as I think parts of the routing are ingenious and well-executed, there are some awkward elements. Like at Sagebrush, his design in the interior of B.C., Whitman routes the first hole straight up a hill, creating an odd tee shot that climbs steeply. The ninth and 10th holes are opposites, with the ninth running hard downhill and the 11th a slightly less aggressive version of the first with a more difficult green. I like the 9th (it reminds me of the 8th at Highlands Links), but understand why many would feel these three holes, which are all short in stature, hurt the design. That said, they don’t bother me.
The Final Tally:
Blackhawk is certainly in a handful of courses that could be discussed as the best modern designs in Canada. Whitman’s use of width and contour in the fairway, and the attractive rugged bunkers, make for a terrific mix. There are few forced carries on the course (the par three 12th and 16th, both with water in front, are the only two I can recall) make Blackhawk very playable for all, but it has enough length, teeth and contour in the greens to be interesting for good players as well. What I find remarkable is with the exception of the 12th hole, there are very few forced carries, meaning a higher handicap could enjoy the course and a lower handicap would find it entertaining. That’s a rare combination. Blackhawk is a course that warrants its place in the discussion of the best courses in the country.

Vatican City, Oct 1, 2019 / 07:40 am
Vatican prosecutors seized documents and electronic devices in a raid executed Tuesday at the offices of the most senior curial department.
According to a statement from the Holy See press office Oct. 1, the raid was conducted at the offices of the general affairs section of the Secretariat of State. The action was authorized by the Vatican City court's Promoter of Justice, Gian Piero Milano, and Adjunct Promoter of Justice Alessandro Diddi.
The documents and devices were taken in connection to an investigation following complaints brought last summer by the Institute for Religious Works (IOR) - commonly called the Vatican Bank - and the Office of the Auditor General concerning a series of financial transactions "carried out over time," the statement said.
The Secretariat of State is the central governing office of the Catholic Church and the department of the Roman Curia which works most closely with the pope. It is also responsible for the governance of the Vatican City state.
