Tillis introduces bipartisan bill to strengthen community health workforce
WASHINGTON DC – As communities across the country battle the COVID-19 pandemic, U.S. Senators Thom Tillis (R-NC), Bob Casey (D-PA), Tina Smith (D-MN), and Lisa Murkowski (R- AK) introduced bipartisan legislation to strengthen the community health worker workforce and address health disparities among underserved communities. Studies have shown that community health workers can identify and respond to the specific health needs of their communities, promote healthy behaviors and reduce hospitalizations. The Building a Sustainable Workforce for Healthy Communities Act would reauthorize a competitive grant program to support state and local governments, tribal organizations, and community organizations in expanding health care programs. community health workers.
“With the workforce shortages currently facing our communities, we must continue to invest in the future of our healthcare workforce,” said Senator Tillis. “Our communities need more support, appropriate resources and access to necessary health care. I am proud to introduce this no-nonsense bill that will do just that, ensuring we recruit, train and retain qualified frontline healthcare professionals.
Funding from the grant would be used to recruit and train community health workers who understand community needs and support outreach to underserved communities and those in need of additional assistance during a public health emergency. . These health workers would promote positive healthy behaviors and improve access to services that promote physical and mental health, such as child care, housing, education, nutrition and employment.

Nairo Quintana started the Tour de France among the top favorites for the overall title. Things haven’t gone his way in the GC battle over the past two weeks, but he earned a worthy consolation prize Wednesday, soaring to victory atop the highest mountain of the race in stage 17.
“We were a bit depressed in the last few days, so we needed this victory,” Movistar’s climber said. “Today is a marvelous day.”
Movistar rode into the Tour with a hyped three-pronged-attack. Quintana, twice a Tour runner-up, was one of the top contenders on the start list, but ace climber Mikel Landa and grand tour stalwart Alejandro Valverde were also co-leaders.
The trio has struggled to live up to expectations this July. Crashes and mechanicals have played their part, but their form was also suspect. Two weeks into the race, it was clear that none of the three would be winning this Tour de France. Instead of gaining time in the Alps, as Movistar knew it must to have a chance at the overall win, the team saw all three of its heavy hitters lose time.
As of Wednesday morning, Landa was sitting sixth overall with Quintana in eighth and Valverde in 11th place. With yellow almost certainly out of reach, Quintana shifted his focus to claiming his first Tour stage win since 2013, when he climbed to victory in the penultimate day of racing.
He delivered in stage 17, which squeezed three hard mountain climbs into a short 65 kilometers.
Quintana followed an attack from Dan Martin (UAE Team Emirates) early on the final climb of the Col du Portet. Before long, he dropped the Irishman. Behind, the other GC contenders were content to let the Colombian go.
It was the long-range attack many had hoped Quintana would deliver earlier in the race.
“I’m sorry to not have had better sensations in prior days; my body was not feeling well and I lost too much time, which made me feel very bad,” he said after the stage. “Fortunately, my body is feeling well again for what remains of the Tour.”
After going solo, Quintana began motoring through the remnants of the early break. He briefly linked up with one of those riders — Valverde — and then pressed on, ultimately sweeping up the last man from the escape, Tanel Kangert (Astana). From there, there was nothing but daylight between him and the finish.
“It went just the way we had planned. We had Valverde and Soler up the road and their work was really important,” Quintana said. “We knew that it was a stage for pure climbers and we showed our strength.”
[related title=”More Tour de France news” align=”right” tag=”Tour-de-France”]
The high-mountain raid propelled Quintana up the overall leaderboard into fifth overall, 3:30 behind race leader Geraint Thomas (Sky). With an individual time trial still to come — and with four time trial talents in front of him on GC — Quintana may find it hard to land the final podium even with another big performance in the upcoming stage 19.
Still, he promised to “keep fighting.”
“We know the overall win is difficult, but we will make the race hard and we’ll see where we are capable of ending up,” he said.
No matter how the rest of the Tour plays out, Quintana has a hard-earned stage victory in one of the most difficult days of the race. Even if he came into the Tour with loftier goals, Wednesday’s victory at least gives Quintana and Movistar something to show for their efforts in the biggest event of the season.
“Things did not go well in this Tour. We had some sad days,” he said. “This victory brought the dream back and encouraged us to keep working.”

Phil and I decided to do a podcast even though we had no central movie to discuss. I guess we just missed each other. But it is very early into the new year, so we decided to have a casual conversation about the year that was 2016, RIP. Well, maybe not total peace.

Japan recently ordered its military to intercept any North Korean rocket or its debris that falls towards Japanese territory even as the United States began moving Navy ships into position to track the launch.
Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda announced the shoot-down order Friday following a Security Council meeting attended by cabinet officials, including Defense Minister Satoshi Morimoto.
"We will spare no effort in making preparations to deal with any launch in order to protect the Japanese people's assets and lives," Noda said as he toured two Patriot missile firing units deployed on the grounds of Japan's defense ministry in central Tokyo, the Wall Street Journal has reported.
The report said Tokyo was more likely to use the land-based Patriots rather than the sea-based missile defenses, if the need arose, to avoid provoking Pyongyang.
"We do not expect any debris [from a North Korean missile] under normal circumstances," chief cabinet spokesman Osamu Fujimura was quoted as saying by news agencies Friday.
North Korea plans to launch its rocket between Dec. 10 and 22, saying it is intended to put a satellite into space.
However, other nations, including the U.S., say the launch constitutes a test of a long-range missile technology that is banned under U.N. resolutions and suspect that the mission is a cover for testing technology for intercontinental ballistic missiles that could eventually be used to carry nuclear weapons.
Pyongyang’s attempt to launch the Unha-3 rocket in April, as part of a celebration to mark the 100th birthday of the nation’s founder Kim Il-Sung, failed after only about 100 seconds of powered flight.
Adm. Samuel J. Locklear III, the commander of U.S. military forces in the Pacific region, said Thursday that warships equipped with advanced radar and other ballistic-missile defense systems were being relocated to monitor the launch, the New York Times reported.
During a Pentagon news conference, he said Pyongyang’s launch operations would be watched “very closely” to determine “what kind is it? What is it about? Where does it go? Who does it threaten?”
Citing anonymous sources, South Korea's Yonhap news agency reported that North Korea was filling up a fuel tank at the Dongchang-ri launch site in its northwestern region, as it prepared to inject fuel into a long-range rocket.
The report said Pyongyang was expected to set a launch date depending on weather, considering severe conditions in the northern region in winter.
Japanese media speculated that leader Kim Jong-un may fire off the rocket on Dec. 17, the first anniversary of the death of his father Kim Jong-il, to pay tribute. The anniversary comes just two days before South Koreans vote to elect a new president.
The following post was originally published by International Business Times, a new Diplomat partner.

What A Disappointment
Monday’s meeting of Emmetsburg City Council was one big disappointment.
The first disappointment came with the resignation of Councilman Pat Degen. For 11 years Pat has represented the citizens in Ward 2 and the community as a whole. He has given each item considerable thought and did his homework on issues facing the community. I have watched as, over the years, Pat has taken a stand and not wavered. His presence will be missed at City Hall.
Along with the good, comes the bad. I was also disappointed with the conduct of the mayor and city council. In my 30-plus years of covering city government, these recent years have been disturbing. This last meeting left me dumbfounded.
Here’s the rub: Mayor John Schad publicly chastised members of the Public Properties Committee in a letter to the editor (September 14), citing a “hole in the Iowa Open Meetings Law.” He asserts that “the law does not provide for a guarantee that people attending an open meeting may speak at the meeting, only that they may be present.”
Mayor Schad used my editorial on abuse of the Open Meetings Law as the springboard for his letter. I think the mayor is giving the Open Meetings Law a bad rap.
Unfortunately I was not at the committee meeting in question. But, the meeting was open to the public and an agenda was posted. Citizens attended the meeting.
That these citizens did not speak is, to me, a procedural problem and not an Open Meetings Law issue. They attended an open meeting where discussion was among the committee. Had anyone raised a hand to be recognized, I believe he/she would have been allowed to speak.
Historically our city and county governments have not been as stringent as the state legislature. At the statehouse the public is allowed to observe proceedings, but not participate. We have been through the process of handing the doorkeeper a note requesting to speak to a representative or senator, then waiting until they have time to leave the chambers to speak to you.
The stress level was high when Councilman Steve Finer addressed the mayor Monday night. The battleground became: who talked to whom about being able to address the council committee or sit in silence and observe the committee meeting. Monday night, statements were misconstrued, there were interruptions, allegations and misinterpretations as accusations were tossed back and forth across the table. I quit taking notes and just listened.
When my name came out again pertaining to the Open Meetings Law, I raised my hand to speak. I told the mayor and council that I am not an expert on the Open Meetings Law. But, in my opinion, the Open Meetings Law and Roberts Rules of Order were perhaps being confused. I know of no law that prevents a person from speaking.
I felt like I was speaking to the wind but at least I was voicing my opinion. No one said I couldn’t.
Emmetsburg City Council has a time for public comment during each council meeting. City Attorney Brian Thul suggested Monday night that a time for public comment could be placed on every agenda (including committee meetings) so no person would be discriminated against.
The opportunity is there for residents to attend public meetings. Chapter 21 of the Iowa Code, the Iowa Open Meetings Law, spells out when a meeting can be closed. Chapter 22 is about the public’s right to know and examine documents that are open to the public. These are two of the most important laws that exist today.
Mayor and Council, you have disappointed me once again. Is the name of the game divide and conquer? None of us needs that kind of stress in our lives. This type of behavior is not acceptable in public or anywhere.
There are so many good things going on in our community it’s heartbreaking to witness senseless bickering. Let’s put this to rest and get on with making positive accomplishments in Emmetsburg.

Details to shop the 3d printer
February 23, 2020
What is rapid prototyping Rapid prototyping RP can be characterized as the programmed development procedure of any strong articles this technique includes freestyle strong manufacture process. RP strategies were first come practically speaking in 1980s while the idea of structuring prototype parts and models for vehicles was first evolved. In the ongoing years RP systems have propelled a great deal and these are fundamentally and viably being utilized in motorsport application.
There are different kinds of rapid prototyping strategies and they are as per the following:
- Fused statement demonstrating FDM
- Laminated object producing LOM
- Stereolithography SLA
- Selective Laser Sintering SLS
- Multi stream demonstrating, etc.
If there should be an occurrence of sports vehicle it is important to offer significance to the ideal streamlined shape to decrease the drag power. By bringing down the drag power speed of the vehicle can be expanded to a noteworthy sum and simultaneously fuel utilization can be diminished. Drag power of any vehicle is identified with streamlined shape and skin contact. That is the reason it is important to keep up high flawlessness of built shape with the structure. Rapid prototyping application in the development helps keeping up ideal structure quality inside a brief timeframe and in a financially savvy way.
Strong freestyle producing process is applied to acquire the last physical model of the motorsport. This procedure requires PC helped plan of the item or best 3d printers under 300. By utilizing reasonable programming, introductory structure can be changed into virtual examples which help shaping the total model with the entertainment of physical space. In this manner indistinguishable correspondence is being made in the middle of virtual and 3D space model by the WYSISYG procedure.
Assembling machine cannot peruse the structure and information right now. That is the reason extra parameters are added to the PC helped configuration to make it clear. SLT document group is utilized as the regular information interface in the middle of the structuring programming and the assembling machine. The state of the motorsport is controlled by the SLT document by the execution of triangular units. At that point the necessary materials are expended to give the shape a total structure. The materials can be of fluid, strong or powdered structure. The crude materials are then prepared and utilized as needs be to get the last state of the vehicle. Materials utilized for the development of the shape can be delegated part material and bolster material. Bolster material is utilized to tie up the suspended components during the development procedure. At long last the suspended materials are expelled by heat expansion process or by dissolving it to an appropriate dissolvable.

Trust is central to day-to-day life, relationships, work endeavours, friendships and family. When trust is lacking, life tends to grind to a halt – people go in their own directions, concern for others diminishes, and hurt and resentment prosper. Yet, when trust flourishes, we have teamwork, communication, care and people working to improve the lives of those around them.
But what about teenagers?
Can they be trusted…and more to the point, should they be?
Through our own teenage experience we know that our parents had no idea about most of the things we got up to, a lot of which involved elements of risk. What we also know is that, thanks to technology, teenagers today have a world of risk taking and mischief available to watch on YouTube, 24/7 access to peer influences through social media, online access to synthetic or real drugs, and more disposable income than ever before. This endless connectivity also means predators have 24/7 access to them. Yet, teenagers need freedom if they are to develop independence and grow into responsible adults.
Many parents struggle with balancing a teenager’s need for independence and the need for protection and guidance. Trust is a key mediator in this balance. Trust works when we trust trustworthy people. Parents who have a good foundation of trust in their trustworthy teen are a lot less stressed about letting them explore the world. Parents who don’t trust a trustworthy teen have ongoing conflict and can be overly restrictive, while parents who trust their untrustworthy teen end up placing that teenager at greater risk of harm.
Trust starts with you as a parent. Teenagers, as much as they may argue this point, look to adults for guidance about how to be and how to act. UCLA professor of psychiatry Dr Daniel Siegel says cultivating healthy relationships means to be Present, Attune, Resonate and create Trust (PART). Being present means being aware of your surroundings and mindful of the person you are relating to, listening to what they’re saying without getting lost in thinking. Attune means to be attuned to the emotion of the situation and person you are relating to. Resonating means to reflect that emotion back to the person you are relating to. Trust is created when this process is translated into reliable interactions. Dr Siegel calls this being a PART of another’s life; being present to attune and resonate your emotion, and build trust through understanding.
This may sound a bit idealistic, a level of perfection beyond daily life. However, we don’t actually want perfection because perfection is unattainable. This is about practising as adults, practising being aware when we deviate from this PART approach and then making an effort to return to it. This is important, because this is what we want our teenagers to do when they stray from the clear path we set for them…which they will. We want them to acknowledge it and make every effort to get back on track. This is trustworthy behaviour.
This process is important as the seeds of whom we blossom into as adults are sewn in our teenage years. Teenagers need freedom to seek out new experiences and discover themselves apart from their parents. And parents also need to begin letting go of their teenagers in order for them to do this successfully. This is how teenagers grow into healthy independent adults. If either process is not completed, we end up with unhealthy dependency and resentment in adulthood. So, how do we navigate this balance between allowing freedom and giving direction? Trust. Trust is the compass that tells us how much freedom to give and how much direction to provide.
When two trustworthy people trust each other, decisions about freedom and independence are much simpler.
So now that we are modelling trustworthiness as a parent, how do we instil this in our teenager? We need to build a pathway of trust. There are four basic parts in building a pathway to trust: identify your family values, develop some house rules based on these values, guide your teenager toward your expectation and refine their efforts when they make a mistake.
Discovering your family values begins with taking the time to sit down and answer the following questions:
Write these up and discuss them as a family when developing the house rules.
House rules are drawn from family values and are, therefore, different for each family. As parents, start by answering the following questions:
From this, develop a skeleton of house rules to be discussed and decided upon as a family. Teenagers must be involved, to varying degrees, in household decisions, of which rule making is one. This gives the whole family ownership and reduces conflict later on.
House rules need to include what the expected behaviour is, what constitutes breaking the rule, what the response will be once a rule is broken and how one can rectify the situation after breaking a rule. It is important that once this process is complete and the person who broke the rule has rectified the situation satisfactorily that it is not brought up again in the future. House rules allow us to let go and move on.
Guidance begins with the development of house rules. Guidance is where you as a parent provide instruction and positive influence on your teenager’s behaviour through development of clear expectations. Guidance also involves providing advice, modelling desired behaviour and attitudes, and sharing challenges to find solutions. Guidance can be obvious or very subtle, but it all involves proactive and supportive involvement in the teen’s life in an effort to make them successful. Guidance relies on relationship.
As a parent of a teenager, your relationship with them is an essential tool for influence. If you have no relationship with them, you essentially have no influence over them. Take the time to know them, revisit what they like and their strengths. Talk to them and make time to spend with them. Develop a special ritual that only the two of you share. It is through the conduit of this relationship that they will ask your advice and, more importantly, ask for your help.
When something is refined the impurities are removed, generally through the application of extreme heat. Refinement in this context is when a negative part of our attitude or behaviour (the impurity) creates hurt or suffering for ourselves or someone else (the heat). Refinement is the way you respond when rules are broken or trust is lost. Good refinement is essential because, as noted earlier, perfection is unattainable and teenagers will stray.
If a teenager strays a little, house rules should be sufficient to provide a clear response and get the teen back on track. But what if the teenager strays a lot? What if trust has been violated over and over? Then greater refinement is necessary and a detailed pathway back to trust needs to be developed. A basic pathway back to trust involves: do A (the responsibility) and get Z (the privilege). The less trustworthy a person is, the more steps required. For example: do A (a little responsibility) to get some of Z, do B (a little more responsibility) to get some more of Z, and do C (total responsibility) to get the rest of Z.
A pathway back to trust allows for errors to be made, such that if we fail to meet a certain level of responsibility then we lose access to that level of privilege. These errors can then be corrected, the privilege reinstated and trust earned back.
Everyone arrives at parenthood with different experiences of trust based on their experiences of life. However, we all know the importance of trust and how essential it is to life and relationship. So it is worth the extra effort to repair it if it has been broken and build on it for the future. Remember, set reasonable expectations, be firm, and be ‘all in’. When a teen has done the hard yards and earned trust, then trust them. Do not bring up the past, and give them the freedom promised to them unreservedly. This is being a trustworthy parent who trusts their trustworthy teenager.

Disabled people won’t be able to pay for essential items because of government cuts to benefits, MPs have claimed.
The new tranche of cuts to the Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) were meant to encourage disabled people to find work.
But that’s been slammed by the Commons Work and Pensions Committee who said that it was: ‘ambiguous at best’.
Government officials want to reduce the difference between the employment rates of the disabled and non-disabled.
That figure is referred to as the ‘disability employment gap’.
New cuts were designed to half this gap but the committee pointed out that it would require almost 1.5 million disabled people to find work.
While it was described as a ‘laudable’ aim it would take 200 years at current rates to achieve.
The proposed cuts in numbers
Currently disabled people who are out of work take home £102.15 a week. But if they are ‘adjusted’ to be able to work they will now receive £73.10 a week.
The reduction of £29.05 is the same as an able bodied person who is also out of work.
It has been pointed out that disabled people face higher unavoidable living costs and so may have less disposable incomes than JSA claimants on the same money.
Now, the Committee said government officials must provide extra cash for those who won’t be able to meet their living costs with the new money.
They said: ‘The Government expects the new, lower rate for the ESA-WRAG [work-related activity group] to enhance incentives to work. The evidence is, at best, ambiguous.
‘We heard substantial concerns about the possible impact of the new rate on disabled people’s capacity to look for and move into work.’
Committee chairman Frank Field said: ‘We expect the Government to respond to this report before the proposed new lower rate of ESA is due in April.
‘If they intend to proceed with these cuts, we expect an explanation of how this will not be detrimental to its target of halving the disability employment gap, by making finding and keeping a job even more difficult for disabled people than it already is.’
The Department of Work and Pensions were rocked when Tory grandee Iain Duncan Smith resigned in 2016.
He claimed he could no longer support Tory plans to cut disabled benefits at the same time taxes were cut for the better off.
A DWP spokesman said: ‘Our welfare reforms are increasing the support and incentives for people to move into work, while keeping an important safety net in place for those who need it. In addition to ESA, we also offer support through Personal Independence Payments, to help with the extra costs associated with being disabled.’
However the cuts were slammed by Liz Sayce, chief executive of Disability Rights UK.Prince Harry accuses social media companies of creating 'crisis of hate'
She said: ‘We’re not aware of one single disability employment or benefits expert who thinks this particular cut will be an incentive for disabled people to get a job.’
Additionaly Mark Atkinson, chief executive at disability charity Scope, said: ‘We know that reducing disabled people’s incomes won’t incentivise them to find a job and won’t help halve the disability employment gap. It will just make life harder.’
Labour were quick to criticise the Government for the latest round of cuts. Shadow work and pensions secretary Debbie Abrahams described the report as ‘a clear indictment that the Tories are failing to support disabled people’.

The officer ordered the burritos from a Taco Bell for himself and his fiance.
Advertisement - story continues below
The Newton Police Department posts a statement on social media, after a police officer was given two burritos with the word “pig” written on the wrappers.
The photo has been circulating on social media, saying the officer ordered the food from Taco Bell in Newton. The Newton Police Department posted this statement on its Facebook page Sunday morning:
“There is a photo depicting a derogatory term written on the food wrappers of one of our officers who stopped in to our local Taco Bell to pick up dinner for himself and his fiance last night. That photo was posted to social media by a person who is not connected with the Newton Police Department. The photo has gone viral causing strong emotions to be voiced in opposition to one of our local businesses. We do not support this sentiment.
The store manager is terribly apologetic of the actions of her employee and assures us the situation is being handled appropriately. A meeting this morning with the Senior Director of Operations yielded positive results, and we are actively working to develop a partnership with Taco Bell to host a community event in the near future. Details will be announced when available.
The employee was later fired by Taco Bell for the stunt.

CALIFORNIA, USA — In a statement released by her family, Disney Legend and award-winning actress Angela Lansbury has died peacefully in her sleep at age 96.
“The children of Dame Angela Lansbury are sad to announce that their mother died peacefully in her sleep at home in Los Angeles at 1:30 AM today, Tuesday, October 11, 2022, just five days shy of her 97th birthday,” her family said in a statement.
Though well known by all ages as the voice of Mrs. Potts of the 1991 animated Disney film Beauty and the Beast, Lansbury was also America’s favorite TV detective in the long-running series “Murder, She Wrote.”
The late actress began her career early in her life. At 20, she debuted in the movie “Gaslight” in 1994, in which she gained her first Oscar nomination. She gained two more nominations for the film “The Portrait of Dorian Gray” in 1945 and “The Manchurian Candidate” in 1962.
Though she did not win from any of the nominations, she did receive Golden Films for the latter two films. She also accepted an honorary Oscar in 2013.
Over the years of her career, she collected five Tony awards and amassed 11 Emmy nominations for her role as Jessica Fletcher (Murder, She Wrote), but she never won.
Angela Lansbury, Disney Legend
Lansbury starred in Disney films starting in 1971 in the movie musical “Bedknobs and Broomsticks.” Then she later voiced Mrs. Potts in the Oscar-nominated animated film “Beauty and the Beast.”
“Oddly enough, children recognize my voice,” she told The Huffington Post in 2012. “They’ll hear me and say, ‘Mom, that’s Mrs. Potts!'”
Her final performance in Disney was in the 2018 sequel “Mary Poppins Returns,” where she starred in a small role – the unnamed balloon lady.
Lansbury achieved her greatest achievement as Jessica Fletcher, a well-loved crime-solving mystery writer in the long-running series “Murder, She Wrote.”
The series began in the 60s and ended in 1995.
She went on to continue working in her 80s and 90s.
”I love this industry, and I love being in it,” Lansbury said in a 1998 interview with the Archives of American Television.
RIP, Angela Lansbury. – WhatALife!


JJVL CASE: NAB’S HASTE FAILED TO JUSTIFY ARRESTS
By Nasir Mahmood
KARACHI: The Sindh High Court while accepting the bail applications of Shoaib Warsi and Zuhair Siddiqui for rupees two million each in JJVL case against former petroleum minister Dr Asim Hussain and others have observed that undue haste was demonstrated by the NAB Authorities while obtaining custody of both the petitioners. According to detailed order by the SHC division bench, comprising Justice Aqeel Ahmed Abbasi and Justice Sadiq Hussain Bhatti, since the facts of both the petitions and the allegations as contained in NAB Reference No.19/2016 against both the petitioners are similar, therefore, by consent of learned counsel for the petitioners Noor Muhammad Dayo Special Prosecutor NAB duly assisted by the SIO Abdul Fatah, NAB, the above petitions are being disposed of by this common order. With reference to the Constitutional Petition No.D-1199/2016 petitioner Shoaib Warsi, Deputy Managing Director of SSGC was picked up on 26.08.2015 by the officials of Pakistan Rangers Sindh outside the head office of SSGC from his official. The order said that undue haste was demonstrated by the NAB Authorities while obtaining custody of both the petitioners from Pakistan Rangers, Sindh, after expiry of the period of ninety days detention of the petitioners under Section 11EEEE(1) of Anti-Terrorism Act, 1997, without any order by competent authority or the competent Court of jurisdiction. Whereas, prosecution has failed to produce any lawful authorization of inquiry and investigation by the competent authority in respect of allegations as contained in the investigation report and reference No.19/2016 filed before the Accountability Court. No sufficient incriminating material specifying the role of the petitioners relating to allegations of misuse of authority and corruption or the benefit derived by the petitioners or extended to M/s. JJVL has been produced by the NAB, therefore, the possibility of misuse of authority and the malafide on the part of NAB Authorities as alleged by the learned counsel for the petitioners cannot be ruled out.

Clutha families to learn at last why helicopter crashed
Families of the victims of the Clutha pub disaster in Glasgow are expected to hear the findings of an official inquiry into the crash tonight.
Ten people died and many more were injured when a police helicopter plunged on to the roof of the Clutha Vaults, a city centre pub, in December 2013, but it has taken almost two years for the Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) to complete its report.
Lawyers for families of the dead and injured said they hoped “answers will finally be provided”.
Last year, in the second of two interim reports, the AAIB said that both engines failed, but the cause was not outlined. Those initial findings suggested the engines had “flamed out” before the helicopter crashed into the packed

Brakes are not constantly the peaceful system they ought to be. Automobile proprietors frequently ask you if it is time for brake repair when their brakes begin making some uncommon sounds. While many noises do suggest an issue or the possibility for an issue, not all noises show an emergency situation. Right here are some typical noises you could speak with your brakes and what you ought to do concerning them.
If you hear your brakes screeching, do not panic. This is rarely an emergency situation. While you may intend to have your brakes serviced soon or considered to rule out a trouble, you likely have a couple of weeks or months prior to this are misting likely to transformed into an emergency situation.
Sometimes screeching takes place when dust or various other particles collects on the pads. This suggests it is time to have the pads replaced or even cleaned up. A knowledgeable mechanic will certainly have the ability to tell you this with an aesthetic analysis.
Nonetheless, screeching could additionally suggest that steel is massaging on metal. If you have semi metallic pads on your brakes, this is likely not an issue. If your pads are not semi metallic, then squealing ways you should have them considered. You do not want to have steel scrubbing against metal, so this would be trigger for brake service el cajon. Other problems that could cause squeals consist of dust in the drums, difficult cellular linings or cheap cellular linings.
Scraping sounds could be a bit much more serious. This commonly takes place when the brakes start to use down, especially when the pads come to be worn out. If the brakes start to rub against the blades, it could cause a scratching audio. Obviously, roadway particles that obtains lodged between the pad can additionally create a scratching audio. It is best to have your brakes considered if you see this issue. Even if the cause is roadway debris, you should have the debris eliminated prior to it triggers a much more serious as well as pricey trouble.
If you have grinding sounds coming from your brakes, take the cars and truck in for brake repair as quickly as you can. In almost every situation, grinding ways that steel is scrubbing against metal when you stop your car. This produces an extremely hazardous scenario, and also can additionally damage your brake blades and caliper, which will certainly cause price fixings in the future.
The lower line is that a little squeak or screech in your brakes does not suggest an emergency situation. However, anything else should be looked at rapidly to eliminate a possibly unsafe situation. Grinding and also scraping noises should not be neglected, because doing so will certainly leave you with more price fixings down the road.

My general plan for this composition task was to have quite an upbeat, ‘jiggy’ feel. To achieve this I decided to select 6/8 with a moderate pace (moderato: 108-120). I felt as if using quavers would best suit this ‘vibe’ so utilised them in my piece.
1st time working on composition:
This was the first time I worked on my composition. I decided to have 2, 8 bar phrases. With this in mind I created the chord progression for the first 8, working around the circle of fifths. With the chord progression figured out I laid out the chords in the bass line and begun to work on the melody in the violin 1 line. I also made sure of having a cadence point at the end of the 8 bars and thought about potentially modulating to Gmaj from the cadence into the 9th bar. The last 4 bars of work were done by Ben when I was out the room. However, I do like the sound of what he did so I may keep them or scrap them.
2nd time working on composition:
This time round I had little time to work on my composition so I did not make any huge advancements or changes. Although I did add another 4 bars on to the original 12 bars. I then moved bens work to the last 4 bars and up an octave, as I believed that in respect to the piece it would sound better as a closing phrase.
3rd time working on composition:
Again, I had little time for this session of work. So I only made a few changes, these were: figuring out more of the chord progression for the latter part of the piece and discovering how to change the speed on Sibelius. With this knowledge I changed the piece from around 40BPM to 100BPM, this allowed me to have a greater knowledge of where this piece was going.
4th time working on composition:
In this session I had begun to extend on the melody and focused on the violin II and viola part. To get the instruments working and intertwining with each other I worked of the notes in each chord and vertically aligned them. I decided to make the violin I part I had made previously as the recurring motif. In doing so the violin II and viola part were very similar to the violin I part. The main difference was that they were spread out and had different entrances in the piece (creating a bit of a canon). I also took out all the slurs just to see what the effect would be and if it would benefit the piece.
5th time working on composition:
In this session I started working on incorporating rests in the piece and sharing the melody between instruments. I had made this decision as I noticed that the majority of the piece was focussed on the violin I part and made it like a lead instrument. However, a key feature in baroque string quartet pieces was that all of the instruments other than the bass line were “equal” and the melody was shared.

Kim Collins Olympic hopes in peril following injury
Olympic gold for St. Kitts and Nevis Track and Field star Kim Collins may be in jeporady, following news that the 100 meters sprinter sustained injuries at the recent Dimond League Meet in Oslo, Norway.
Fresh from setting a new world Master record of 9.93 seconds in the 100 meters, Collins was leading his race until he had to pull up at the mid-way point due to a cramp on the left side of his groin. Since the meet, Collin confirmed that he would have to withdraw from the St. Kitts and Nevis National Olympic Trials.
“I would like to once again thank everyone for their continued love and support over the years. However, due to a recent injury at the Oslo Diamond League I will not be able to attend the S.K.N National Olympic trials scheduled for June 18th-19th,” said Collins in a statement on his Facebook page. “All those competing, I wish you the best of luck.”
The 2016 Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, was to be Collins’ fifth and final Olympic s. Now forty years old, the sprinter first competed for his country at the 1996 Games in Atlanta, Georgia.
Meanwhile, the St. Kitts/Nevis Amateur Athletic Association (SKNAAA) has confirmed that Collins would not be competing in the national trials, wishing him “a speedy recovery and longevity for the remainder of the 2016 campaign,” said Evris Huggins, the Public Relations Officer for the SKNAAA.
However, the Association did not clarify whether Collins has applied for a medical waiver from the championships to select the country’s Olympic team. Collins has expressed in the past his goal to become the first 40-year-old sprinter to break 10 seconds in 100 meters sprint event at an Olympic Games.

Cover Page The main photo showed in the main optical area is a low angle mid-shot of the lead singer/guitarist of Green Day. The photo is used to support the cover story of the magazine which is shown on the right of the main optical area, on the shoulder of the band member. The cover story has “Green Day” wrote in the exact same stile of the logo of the band. This is used to help attract fans of the band to read the magazine as it is the main story within the magazine. The stand first of the cover story is shown in black writing high lighted green as it stands out of the background and its high lighted green as the band is called Green Day. The language of the cover story is informal as it is talking to the reader as it address the audience in a friendly term which appeals to the reader as it makes the author more related to the reader of the magazine.
Cover Page In the terminal area on the lest hand side there are sub headings of two other articles which are in side the magazine. These have been position here as they have no significant to the main headline of the cover but they are still important to the magazine. The typography of the headings are sans serif fonts as the writing is consisting of big and bold text. The language of the text is informal as its more of an everyday life speech as the anagram of “WTF?!” is another form of swearing. The mode of address to the reader is very caesural and inviting as its speeches to the reader as if they were good friends and wont feel offended to the type of language that is being presented. The colour scheme of the sub articles are yellow and green which helps separate each article and it carries on the theme as the Green Day article is in green and the Slipknot article which is in yellow.
Cover Page The masthead of Kerrang is placed on the top of the magazine, this is the first thing to be seen by the reader as its at the beginning of the root of the eye. The word Kerrang that is an onomatopoeia as it sounds like a guitar once a note has been played. It is also a nonsense word as it has been made up for the purpose of the magazine. The title has been wrote in a bold white text as it stands out of the background, it also shown to have a crack in it as the magazine is heavily based around rock music and some rock artistes are associated whit braking things while the artist are on stage
Cover Page The imprint in the terminal area of the cover shows another band from the same genre of rock as slipknot is a heavy metal band. The image of the band shows mid shots of the members at the back and close ups of the members in the foreground. The costumes of the band members are dark colours of blacks and greys as this it signifies a heavy metal band. The imprint is shown in the terminal area as not as important as the main cover story, however it is used to attract other rock fans who like heavy metal music and who like the band slipknot. The typography of text used in the imprint is large, bold text on a yellow background to help it stand out on the dark background of the Green Day photo and the white text shows up more brightly on the yellow background. The word “WIN!” is in a larger font with a different background as it shows its importance to the article. The tone of the text is quite foreseeing as quotes “MEMORY LANE” means the band could be see how their career has been so far.
Contents PageIn the top left corner of the contentspage there is a letter from the editor ofthe magazine addressing the reader in afriendly manor as he has wroteinformally as he is telling the reader whatis inside the magazine.

Contents Page• The imagers on the contents page are of bands and artist of the rock genre of music as Kerrang is a rock magazine. The photos in the bottom half of the page are low angle close ups of the artist/ band member how are talked about in the articles within the magazine. The low angle, close ups of the artist/band member are used to show the faces of the main person that is linked to the article so it is easy for the reader to recognize the person with in the photo. Low angle shots are used because it give the person in the photo more power and status, as the people who read the magazine look up to the people shown in the photos. The photos on the top half of the page are mid shots of different bands from the music genre of rock. The photos on the right are of the band members in in smart, black, casual clothing to show the reader that the bands are in their element as they have normal body language and they have a straight face on them as well. The large image on the left shows a mid shot of one of the band members in the of the photo in a smart costume which is similar to a school uniform as he is wearing a tie. The prop of the cricket bat shows that the band is English and quite young because of the costume of the uniform. The bat is covered in blood which seem to be the blood of the two men behind him who are darkly dressed with blood poring down there faces, because of the pale white make up on the two mens farces makes them seen like zombies attacking the man in front.

I came across this site while looking up information about wheels for larger riders. I'm currently riding a Trek 1.2 (my first road bike), but also have a Trek Singletrack 800. Right now, I am riding anywhere from 100 to 200 miles per week, but the average is probably 150. When motivated, I commute, but often enough there are things to do that don't let me. I started riding seriously about a year ago, when I finally realized that my sore knee was from the running I was doing, and I probably shouldn't do that anymore So far, this new life of bicycling is as much fun as the old one of running, but you sure need to spend more time at it.

And money too.
When the spirits are low, when the day appears dark, when work becomes monotonous, when hope hardly seems worth having, just mount a bicycle and go out for a spin down the road, without thought on anything but the ride you are taking. — Arthur Conan Doyle

The Biden administration is issuing a new eviction moratorium in the wake of criticism from liberal lawmakers after a previous ban on evictions was allowed to expire over the weekend.
According to details released late Tuesday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the new moratorium will be more targeted than the blanket prohibition that was in place previously. The CDC said it would apply to counties “experiencing substantial and high levels of community transmission levels” of the virus that causes COVID-19.
The CDC will define which counties the moratorium applies to. If the transmission rate in a county drops before the moratorium expires, it will no longer apply. The opposite is true for any county where the moratorium won’t initially be in effect if transmission rates worsen.
“The emergence of the delta variant has led to a rapid acceleration of community transmission in the United States, putting more Americans at increased risk, especially if they are unvaccinated,” said Dr. Rochelle Walensky, director of the CDC.
“This moratorium is the right thing to do to keep people in their homes and out of congregate settings where COVID-19 spreads,” Walensky added. “It is imperative that public health authorities act quickly to mitigate such an increase of evictions, which could increase the likelihood of new spikes in SARS-CoV-2 transmission. Such mass evictions and the attendant public health consequences would be very difficult to reverse.”
The CDC’s order cited research suggesting that Americans at a higher risk of eviction are also more likely to be unvaccinated against COVID-19. The order only applies to evictions based on the nonpayment of rent — as with the previous prohibition, evictions for other reasons such as criminal activity or violating other lease obligations will be allowed.
As with the previous moratorium, protection does not apply automatically. Rather, residents who cannot pay the rent must provide a signed declaration to their landlord, which is available on the CDC website.
People who previously submitted declarations under the prior moratorium will still be protected from eviction and do not need to submit a new declaration. In situations where an eviction was ordered but not completed, those residents are allowed to stay in their homes under the new moratorium.
The new order will expire on Oct. 3.

The Arizona State Sun Devils continue to see their 2021 recruiting class fall apart, as highly coveted ATH Larry Turner-Gooden de-committed from Arizona State on Thursday.
Turner-Gooden becomes the third commitment for Arizona State to reopen their recruitment for the Sun Devils' class of 2022, following Alfonzo Allen and Jaylin Marshall. September becomes the third straight month ASU has seen a recruit step away from the program.
Turner-Gooden, who initially committed to Arizona State on Feb. 26, recently had a visit to Penn State, where he was able to watch the Nittany Lions defeat a ranked Auburn Tigers squad in a whiteout atmosphere.
That same day, the Sun Devils fell to BYU on the road. Turner currently also has a visit lined up with Texas in the future.
Turner-Gooden currently has over 30 scholarship offers, and with his recruitment now back open, expect that number to jump. Turner-Gooden has collected offers from prestigious programs such as Alabama, Clemson, Georgia and Notre Dame among others.
Turner-Gooden, although listed as an athlete, was set to play safety for the Sun Devils prior to his de-commitment.
Now, Arizona State boasts just four names in their current 2022 class: Tevin White, Tristan Dunn, Carter Brown and Syncere Massey. The group of four players for Arizona State is the lowest out of all Power-5 programs.


There was an article in The Globe and Mail last week about how scientists are using the principles of 3-D printing to attempt to create a bionic heart. At about the same time, The Wall Street Journal published a lengthy story about how 3-D printing could revolutionize manufacturing by cutting both costs and timelines dramatically.
One example from the WSJ article: Ford Motor Company is using 3-D printers in its design centres to make moulds for prototype parts. “It takes four days and costs $ 3,000 to print a 3-D prototype of an engine’s air intake manifold, compared to four months and $ 500,000 without 3-D printing,” WSJ writer Bob Tita said.
3-D printing is a technology that makes it possible to create a solid object out of virtually any material from metal to human tissue. It has already been used to produce everything from titanium knee joints to plastic guns. The weapons applications scares the daylights out of authorities and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has asked for legislation to make that aspect of the process illegal.
I don’t pretend to understand how it works but from everything I’ve read the end products are as good or better than those made in traditional ways.
The process is not as new as most people think. According to Wikipedia, the technology has been around since the 1980s with the first working printer created by an inventor named Chuck Hill for 3D Systems Corp. But it is only in the past couple of years that the commercial applications of this mind-boggling technology have begun to capture the imagination of entrepreneurs and attract billions of dollars in investment money.
Someone asked me the other day to try to envisage what impact 3-D printing technology would have on the world a decade from now. I think it could potentially be as transformational as the Internet – perhaps even more so. The manufacturing implications are obvious – the U.S. Navy is already using the technology on an experimental basis to build equipment. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Imagine a 3-D printer in every home. Families could use 3-D kits to create toys for the kids, a kitchen table, patio furniture, new clothes, and maybe even a high-definition TV set. You may even be able to produce your own steaks. Let your imagination run wild!
As in the early days of the Internet, tech-savvy investors have been plunging into the stocks of 3-D printer companies, driving up prices to absurd levels in hopes of huge profits as the technology becomes cheaper and more widely available. Indeed, some basic 3-D printers can now be purchased for around $ 1,000 although those with commercial applications can run to hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Predictably, this has already led to a boom-bust scenario. 3D Systems Corp. (DDD), one of the industry leaders, has seen its share price plummet from a high of $ 97.28 in early January to the $ 50 range currently (figures in U.S. dollars). The company recorded a 45% growth in revenue in 2013 to $ 513.4 million. GAAP earnings for the year were $ 0.45 a share. The good news is the company is profitable but even at the current price the shares look very expensive.
Another big company is Stratasys Ltd. (SSYS), which posted revenue of $ 484.4 million last year but lost about $ 27 million ($ 0.68 a share). Its stock is down from a high of $ 138.10 in January to around $ 100 now, but it has held up better than many of its competitors.
The ExOne Company (XONE) is a smaller player but it is developing an impressive client list including the U.S. Navy, Caterpillar, and United Technologies. Sales last year were $ 39.5 million, up 38% year-over-year, but the company lost $ 6.5 million ($ 0.51 a share) and based on management projections ExOne will do well to break even in 2014. Its stock has also plunged, falling from a high of $ 78.80 last summer to around the $ 30 level now.
The bottom line is that 3-D printing is an exciting technology with what appears to be an almost limitless future, but investing in the sector right now is a minefield. Normally, the best way to take a speculative position in a rapidly developing field such as this would be through a specialty exchange-traded fund (ETF). However, none that focuses exclusively on 3-D printing companies has been created to this point, although several broader-based technology ETFs hold shares of DDD, SYSS, and others.
Therefore, my advice right now is to stand back while this fledgling market shakes itself out. There will be money to be made down the road but the challenge will be to identify which companies to choose. I’m intrigued by the potential here so I’ll keep a watch on the sector.

You know those songs that you absolutely love and know all the words to, but actually have no idea what those words mean when they're put together into a cohesive unit? Yeah, "Youth" by Troye Sivan is one of those songs. The sound and melody are intoxicating, and I can't help but blast it with the windows down whenever it graces the radio airwaves, but, honestly, I don't quite know what the song is exactly about, per say. However,, since Sivan is set to perform at the Billboard Music Awards thanks to his clenching of the Kia's One To Watch title, we should probably figure out what the lyrics to Sivan's "Youth" mean.
Truth is, the song is a bit abstract. It's no coincidence that we're all just slightly confused on the overarching meaning of it. It takes a greater, more in depth analysis than a mere listen, or even a closer reading of the lyrics, to really "get" it. So, let's do the damn thing. Let's analyze, what "Youth" is about, people.
According to Radio.com, "Youth" may not be as philosophical as one might have initially thought. At least, not totally. Sivan explained the song's catchy hook and how the rest of the tune was subsequently born, as this, "The lyric that we kind of started with was, 'My youth is yours.' That kind of sprung a few different [ideas] in my mind. As someone who has grown up on the internet — you can go back and watch videos of me from when I was 12 — I’ve sort of given my youth, online, to the public."
While that notion may have gotten the ball rolling, there's a deeper concept at hand here, that can be found in these lyrics:
What ifWhat if we start to driveWhat ifWhat if we close our eyesWhat ifWe're speeding through red lights into paradise'Cause we've no time for getting oldMortal bodies, timeless soulsCross your fingers, here we go
While the musician may have started off with the concept of giving his youth to the general public via the internet, the song developed into something else entirely. Case in point, this song is romantic in nature. Sivan reveals that it's about the whimsical feeling of "giving" your youth away to a first love. And, no doubt, the song's sound echoes that particular brand of whimsy.
He explains this notion of all-encompassing young love, saying,
The idea of getting into a relationship when you’re young, and waking up when you’re 25, and you’ve given all of your young years to a particular person, that was super romantic and cool to me. And we started writing a song about leaving everything and running away and having absolutely no idea where you were going, or what you were going to do in the future, or whether this person is just going to be with you for two days and just be a fling, or is it going to be someone who you are going to spend the rest of your life with. And having all of those questions and still not caring about any of the answers because you’re young and you don’t have any responsibilities.
There you have it, folks. We just needed to be pointed in the right direction to fully understand the song as a whole. It's a good thing, too, because I can't wait to sing along to "Youth" now at the Billboard Music Awards with a renewed sense of purpose.
