1 (6-pound) frozen turkey breast with bones, defrosted
1. Combine the mustard, maple syrup and orange juice concentrate.
2. Loosen the skin from the meat and spread some of the mustard baste on the meat with a spoon. Replace the skin.
3. Place the turkey on a rack in a roasting pan and roast in a preheated 350-degree oven 1½ hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 175 degrees on an instant-read thermometer. Baste often with the mustard baste.
4. Carve the turkey from the bone and arrange on a serving platter. The turkey can be served warm or cold.
Note: If preparing the turkey for use in sandwiches make a double batch of the baste and serve the excess as a spread in place of regular mustard.

The long saga of the Cleveland Avenue bicycle lanes has been put to bed, at least on paper.
Following roughly a year of public discussion, the St. Paul City Council on Wednesday night voted 5-2 to support the bike lanes, which drew dozens of calls, letters and emails for and against the project.
“This process has been an extended one,” said Council President Russ Stark.
Council Members Dan Bostrom and Jane Prince voted in opposition.
The north-south bike route will span approximately 2.75 miles from Highland Parkway to University Avenue. Of particular concern to many residents and business owners, stretches of parking on both sides of Cleveland will be eliminated.
Most of the parking loss will take place on the west side of Cleveland between Myrtle and James avenues, and on the east side between James and Randolph avenues.
The city will install two new half-block parking bays near Randolph and Palace Avenue, and make several changes to permit parking areas.
Stark said he will recommend adding one-hour customer parking along both Dayton Avenue and Wilder Street, as well as additional changes to the proposed permit parking resolutions. Those tweaks will be voted on at a later date.
The project is expected to cost roughly $360,000, most of it for the parking bays.

I did a test once , comparing my glass bedded custom M98 and a new Rem 700. Mine shot to original POI immediately when returned to the stock. The 700 returned to original POI after about six rounds .
I would assume this is typical .
Glass bedding is a good idea to strenghten the stock, resist warping from humidity changes ,and returning to POI after removing the action.

"Exactly the help I needed."

"The best place for brainstorming ideas."
- Michael Majchrowicz, student @ University of Kentucky
The new Avionics Modernization Program (AMP) systems installed in the F-111E and EF-111A have
raised their share of questions, so I have decided to continue my series of "Everything You Always Wanted
To Know" handouts to you pilots, navigators, and maintenance technicians on how the cotton-picken' thing
works. This informational pamphlet is an overview of the GPS system as a whole, NOT the system-
specific hardware that you find in your respective aircraft. I'll cover the basic theory of operation here, and
if there proves to be sufficient interest in platform-specific installation, that will be covered in a later
GPS works by triangulation, the process of finding where you are by the angle to fixed known points. In
the old method of DME position determination, you would tune one DME channel and draw a circle on
your chart around the DME transmitter, the radius of which was your DME reading in nautical miles. Then
you'd tune in a second DME station and repeat the process. On your chart at this point there would be two
circles whose lines intersected at two points. Even a vague guess of your whereabouts would be enough to
discard the bogus point, and you'd be left with a pretty good idea of your position. Better yet, take a cut
from a third DME transmitter and draw a third circle on your chart. Now you'd have three intersecting
circles and your position would be inside the little triangle formed by the intersection of the three circles.
Got the picture? This is basically how GPS triangulates, except that instead of circles, we're dealing with
TIMING IS EVERYTHING
Think of GPS satellites as floating DME stations. They move along in orbit and that complicates things but
forget about that for the moment. How can we measure distance?
The satellites in the GPS are some 10,900 miles up, but they're not geostationary (they'd have to be much
higher and thus would require more power to reach earthbound GPS receivers) and they travel along at a
ground speed of about five miles a second. Like DME, GPS measures the time that it takes the signal to
reach the receiver. However, unlike DME, the receiver doesn't have the benefit of a returning pulse from an
interrogation to act as a baseline. It relies purely on one-way timing. You can see right away how it begins
to get complicated. The speed of microwave communication is roughly the speed of light, and from 10,900
miles up, any pulse from the GPS takes about 1/17 (0.059) of a second to reach us. The math is simple
enough. All we need to know is exactly when the signal left the satellite. And I do mean exactly. An error
of a mere .001 of a second would trash the fix by a factor of 180 miles or so. Obviously, very accurate
clocks are required.
DO YOU HAVE THE EXACT TIME?
Each satellite carries four atomic clocks internally, each of which uses the oscillation of cesium and
rubidium atoms to keep extremely accurate time, accurate to within one second over more than 30,000
years. (For you graduates of the USAF Academy, that's one part in 1013, or one part in
10,000,000,000,000). All satellites in the system are synchronized at exactly the same time and they are
kept within 176 nanoseconds of the Universal Time Code (UTC), plus accumulated jump seconds to
account for things like solar time. Navigation messages from the satellites announce the difference
between GPS time and UTC, providing self-recalibration of the clocks.
Okay, we have accurate clocks in the satellites. Now all we need are accurate clocks in our GPS receivers,
synch 'em up and we're in business. Of course, if your el cheapo K-Mart GPS receiver had a cesium clock,
it'd cost about $200,000 and be about the size of a desktop computer. The way around that was to develop
internal receiver clocks that are consistently accurate over relatively short periods of time, as long as they're
reset often enough to keep them synched. Here's how the receiver clocks are reset: Remember how we
explained that DME business, with three intersecting circles? Well, GPS does the same thing, only it uses
three intersecting spheres to determine position. Let's for a moment assume that the

What is an atoll formed from?
An atoll is formed from a coral reef and sometimes receding land or a volcanic structure.

Thanks for the feedback!
An atoll is a coral island that encircles a lagoon partially or completely. Yaren, is a district and constituency of the Pacific nation of Nauru. It is the capital of Nauru.… Yaren does not have an atoll, but instead is a part of an island in Micronesia.
An island of coral that encircles a lagoon partly or completely.
These atolls are both in the Marshall Islands.
How can coral atoll be attached to ocean floor when coral cannot live or form reefs in the deep ocean?
Coral atoll are tiny sea animals that live in shallow water, but when reefs form the new coral grow over the skeleton of the ol…d. As the ocean crust beneath the volcano sinks, the coral sinks with it, and the new coral continues to form on top of the old. Eventually, coral covers the whole volcano. It can survive with the ocean waves bringing in new food and more marine life.
Features of an atoll are: They thrive in warm tropical and subtropical waters. Most are found in the Pacific Ocean. They are products of the growth of topical sea organi…sms. They are usually round and formed around a lagoon.
An atoll is formed first as a reef that fringes a volcanic island. As the island sinks (after the volcanic activity has ceased and the crust has cooled, becoming denser), th…e reef continues to build upward, eventually ending up as a ring-shaped structure.
Atole is made of corn flour,sugar,cinnamon sticks,milk, and the flavour of atole you want!! (example:corn,pineapple....)
Atolls develop in the remnants of volcanic islands. As the island ages and erodes, it becomes an atoll with the crater at the center.
Yes. Bikini Atoll (You may have heard of this famouis atoll) was populated till the US decided they wanted to test Nukes their and kicked the local population off in 194…6. Sure, why not? People live on Wake and Midway Islands which are both atolls.
there is not any antonyms for atoll. I'm very sorry I have been searching the webfor about a week for this word and it is not found
In most cases, the land area of an atoll is very small in comparison to the total area. Lifou (land area 1146 km²) is the largest raised coral atoll of the world. Lif…ou is a commune in the Loyalty Islands Province of New Caledonia, an overseas territory of France in the Pacific Ocean. It is situataed about 190 klms east of the New Caledonian mainland. It is the largest of the Loyalty Islands and is also the most heavily populated. For the source and more detailed information concerning this subject, click on the related links section indicated below.
A volcanic island or underwater mountain forms via volcanic activity. This allows a surface near the water surface for corals to attach too. The corals form a ring around the …volcano.
No, Kure still keeps its head above water, and no, it has had no volcanic activity for thousands of years.

Grizzlies announce community assistance fund to help Memphis during coronavirus pandemic
The private fund, which partners with the Community Foundation of Greater Memphis, was first encouraged by the players and features their contributions along with Grizzlies coaches, front office personnel and business operations staff.
It will target education, food needs and the Community Foundation's Mid-South COVID-19 Regional Response Fund.
The Grizzlies said a portion will go to the Mid-South Food Bank as well as MIFA Meals on Wheels. The fund will partner with Shelby County Schools to help cover the cost of take-home learning materials for students.
“We want everyone to know that the Grizzlies are committed to supporting our community and loyal fan base," Grizzlies vice president of community engagement Abusheri Ohwofasa said. "If we are able to relieve some pressure from families worried about their next meal, students trying to keep up on their studies and front line medical workers risking so much to care for those who are ill, we’re here for them.”
The fund comes after Grizzlies forward Justise Winslow and radio analyst Elliot Perry partnered with the Mid-South Food Bank to help provide families with 14-day food boxes last month.
Grizzlies owner Robert Pera also donated 300,000 meals to a local food bank earlier this month and agreed to pay all Grizzlies part-time, game-night employees throughout the remainder of the team's home schedule.
In addition to the Grizzlies, Pepsi and Gatorade will also donate 15,000 units to the Mid-South Food Bank and MIFA Meals on Wheels. Delta Dental of Tennessee will also provide hygiene kits to SCS students.

The Energy Department’s $28 billion loan programs for clean energy and high-tech vehicles, associated with failures like Solyndra and successes like Tesla Motors, are estimated to cost taxpayers more than $2.21 billion when all loans are repaid.
But that projection is down considerably from the Obama administration’s previous estimate of $4.49 billion, a government audit found, due to stronger performance in the vehicle loan program.
Legislation that requires creation of voluntary energy efficiency standards for commercial buildings has been approved by the House on a voice vote, and sent on to the President for his signature, The Hill reports.
With Congress back in town, a group of businesses, trade associations and electric grid operators are urging the House to move quickly on a Senate efficiency package passed last month, to avoid an impending Energy Department deadline for large-volume electric resistance water heaters.
The bill, introduced and passed by Sens. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., and Rob Portman, R-Ohio, includes a number of measures aimed to boost energy efficiency and would also exempt certain large-volume, grid-enabled heaters from rules set to take effect on April 16.
Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Gina McCarthy says a proposal to improve the fuel efficiency of trucks and buses is getting reviewed by the White House Office of Management and Budget, The Hill reports.
It took several years and a vote in the wee hours of the morning, but Senate approval Friday is a major step forward for long-delayed energy efficiency legislation -- with the House preparing to move on a bill of its own. Representatives already have a history for backing efficiency legislation, and have a bill teed up.
Sens. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., and Rob Portman, R-Ohio, were the sponsors of the Energy Efficiency and Improvement Act. They were also the only two people to vote for it. All the other senators had gone home following a marathon session of voting on budget amendments.
Cleaning up a Tesoro Corp. pipeline spill in northwestern North Dakota, which has left oil covering more than 7 acres of land, will take at least two and a-half more years, according to state regulators, The Associated Press reports.
Plants would no longer be exempt from air pollution regulations when they’re starting up, shutting down or malfunctioning, under a new regulation from the Environmental Protection Agency, The Hill reports.
A series of major energy and environmental regulations will be published by federal agencies between June and August, including the Environmental Protection Agency’s rules limiting power plant carbon emissions, the Interior Department’s rule protecting streams from mountaintop removal coal mining, and the Obama administration strategy for cutting methane emissions, The Hill reports.
A group of senators - 17 Democrats and Independent Bernie Sanders - has written to Interior Secretary Sally Jewell, asking her to stop Royal Dutch Shell or anyone else from drilling in the Arctic, Reuters reports.
The reaction in Washington to this week’s oil spill off the coast of Santa Barbara has been muted, National Journal reports, despite wishes expressed by environmentalists that the incident generate backing for policies moving the country away from fossil fuels.
A website set up by Sens. James Lankford, R-Okla., and Heidi Heitkamp, D-N.D., to collect grievances about federal regulation and bureaucracy has received complaints about a wide variety of the Environmental Protection Agency’s pending regulations, E&E reports.
Mississippi electric power cooperatives are backing away from a deal in which they would take 15 percent ownership of the Kemper County coal plant that will use carbon capture technology, because they said the power it generates would end up being too expensive, E&E reports.
A stronger dollar combined with the drop of only 1 oil rig in Baker Hughes’ weekly count sent crude prices sliding Friday. Benchmark West Texas Intermediate crude lost 1.6 percent, or $1, to settle at $59.72 a barrel on the Nymex, while in London, Brent was $1.17 , or 1.8 percent, lower, at $65.37, The Wall Street Journal reports.
Standard & Poor’s thinks oil companies that have managed to survive the slide in crude prices by borrowing more money may start running into trouble in the coming months, particularly if the price stays in the $50 range, FuelFix reports.


The Boston Celtics defeated the Golden State Warriors, 120-108, in Game 1 of the NBA Finals in San Francisco to take a 1-0 series lead Friday night.
Playing in his first NBA Finals game - which is true of the entire Celtics roster - Al Horford scored 26 points on 9 of 12 shooting to go with six rebounds. Jaylen Brown added 24 points, seven rebounds, five assists and two steals, while Derrick White came off the bench to score 21 points and post a game-high plus-25.
All-NBA first-teamer and Eastern Conference Finals MVP Jayson Tatum struggled from the floor, shooting just 3-for-17 but contributed a game-high 13 assists and five rebounds.
For the Warriors, Steph Curry scored a game-high 34 points (more on him below), while Andrew Wiggins added 20 points.

Identity In Crisis
In 2016, The Museum of the City of Skopje held an international student design competition titled, “Identity in Crisis”. The goal of the competition was to represent struggles with identity that can be recognized across all walks of life, and its role in self discovery. Through visual metaphor, these posters strive to represent identity crisis through naturalistic forms and a dark, somber tone. Both posters take different approaches towards tackling the idea of the conflict of outside forces changing, damaging, or otherwise altering one’s ability to self-identify.

Be careful what you do for a first baby, you may have to do the same for the second, third etc., Luckily for me, I love making bunting.
A friend has recently had a second baby boy and so here I go again!
Thankfully the baby has a lovely short name, Dylan.
So, first of all, I cut out some triangles and then rummaged in my button box for suitable buttons.
As this will be going in a nursery, I stick the buttons down with UHU glue (it dries clear and doesn’t discolour with age) and then hand sew the buttons on, once the glue is dry. It’s worth taking the time to do this securely, babies and buttons really don’t mix.
Once I like the layout, I get sticking and sewing…
I’ve kept a restricted colour scheme with yellow and white fabric and blue buttons and used a bright yellow thread to stitch the buttons on.
As you can see above, I’ve used a contrasting fabric on the back, by folding over the corners it makes the bunting more interesting.
Get yourself a bit of ribbon or bias binding or tape and lay the bunting flags evenly along the ribbon. I used the cotton reel as a spacer. You could measure!
Then I sewed along the front, folded the tape over and went over again. You could do this in one go, my ribbon was quite narrow so I didn’t want to miss catching the bunting.
I sewed a metal ring at the ends and that’s it, ready to pack up and send off,
I’ve done a card to match
and now it’s making it’s way to the family, hope they like it.

Manchester United left-back Luke Shaw is now the only player who has defended under-fire manager Jose Mourinho for his side’s poor performance.
United faced the third Premier League defeat this season as they fell 3-1 against West Ham United at London Stadium on Saturday.
The Red Devils have also been crashed out of the Carabao Cup by the Championship side Derby County last week.
Portuguese boss Mourinho, who has taken the brunt of the blame for his side’s terrible performance, is reportedly on the verge of losing his job at Old Trafford.
However, England international Shaw has claimed that the manager is not responsible for Saturday’s defeat and insisted that United players are to blame for a poor run.
“We have to look at ourselves as players,” he told reporters. “We’re the ones who go on the pitch. The manager isn’t on the pitch, is he? If you want the truth I think it was honestly horrendous.”
“We didn’t look like a team that was going to beat West Ham. I think individually and as a team we were awful. That’s not good enough. It’s hard to take and we’re sorry to the fans for what they saw.”
“Obviously at half-time, there were a few words and I think it was needed. It was wake up and words that he’s said before: we need to be moving, we need to concentrate more, we need to want the ball, we need to be playing. That didn’t happen. It’s disappointing and a very, very bad day for us.”
United will host La Liga side Valencia on Tuesday night in the Champions League before playing their Premier League home game against Newcastle United on Saturday.

A year of work-group sessions, drafts, redrafts and heated debate on regulating development along the Mississippi River may have been for naught.
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, ordered by the Legislature to establish new rules for a 72-mile stretch of the river, missed a key deadline, meaning its authority to make the rules has expired.
Restarting the process would require the Legislature to grant the DNR more time, which some say is highly unlikely. Moreover, legislation was introduced last week to eliminate the rulemaking process altogether.
The area in question, the Mississippi River Corridor Critical Area (MRCCA), stretches from the Anoka County city of Ramsey to southeastern Dakota County. The rules, intended to standardize what is now a mishmash of local regulations, would dictate how tall buildings can be in the corridor and how near to the top of a bluff a structure could be built, for instance.
"It was disappointing to us, surely, that we weren't able to get updated, common-sense rules passed by the deadline," said Whitney Clark, executive director of Friends of the Mississippi River, an advocacy group deeply involved in the rulemaking.
Clark said his organization had little warning that the DNR would miss its deadline, which was 18 months after the effective date of the law establishing the rulemaking process.
The agency missed the deadline because it lacked enough time to evaluate public input, said DNR hydrologist Jeff Berg, who helps head the rulemaking project.
Berg said 18 months wasn't a realistic time frame to get all differences settled.
"There's a pretty large gap in opinions," he said.
The 2009 Legislature instructed the DNR to create the guidelines and appropriated $250,000 for the task in 2010 and again in 2011.
Two DNR staff members led the project, and others worked on it as well. They met with the staffs and officials from all 30 cities and townships inside the corridor, convened meetings and two open houses, created three drafts of the standards, and met with interest groups to get their comments.
But some municipalities and lobbying groups complained that the DNR was overstepping its boundaries and not adequately balancing environmental protections and other local interests.
Jan. 1 was the deadline for the DNR to publish notice of its intent to adopt the rules. Under state statute, since notice was not given in time, the authority for the rules expired.
What happens next depends on the Legislature. It could do nothing, which would terminate the rulemaking process; repeal the legislation that directed the process, or authorize the DNR to continue.
Help from the Capitol seems unlikely with Republicans in charge of the Legislature, Clark said.
"If we could just go to the Legislature and the DNR could just get more time, we would be in support of this," he said. "I don't think there's a chance of that happening."
Sen. Benjamin Kruse, R-Brooklyn Park, who introduced the bill to terminate the process, said that the rules would have been detrimental to residents.
Residents "are kind of out in limbo right now. ... What we want to do is get that cleared up for them," Kruse said.
To Berg's knowledge, DNR management has not decided how to proceed, he said. The agency is working on a new draft of the rules that it hopes to complete this week.
Even if the rules aren't enacted, Berg said, the year was not a waste.
"If the executive branch or the Legislature decides to take this up again, at least we will have a starting point."

High-quality early care and learning supports positive development and helps prepare children for success in school and beyond. Quality child care is also critical for families, as it allows parents to maintain employment. With support from the Richard W. Goldman Family Foundation and the JP Morgan Chase Foundation, Reinvestment Fund conducted a study of the supply of and demand for child care in the five-county metro Atlanta region (Clayton, Cobb, DeKalb, Fulton, and Gwinnett counties).
In addition, an interactive web based tool was created to present the results of this analysis, accessible at www.atlaccessmap.org. The analysis and mapping tool complement existing tools and initiatives in the region to increase access to high-quality child care. With this information, funders, practitioners, and advocates can make data informed decisions about where resources and interventions are needed most.
In 2014, with support from The William Penn Foundation, Reinvestment Fund conducted an initial analysis of the supply of and demand for child care in Philadelphia to identify areas of the city where targeted investments could help address shortages of high-quality child care. Now in its third update, Reinvestment Fund’s 2017 childcare analysis provides updated estimates to track the change over time in the supply of, demand for, and shortages in child care. This report presents the results of descriptive and spatial analyses of the child care landscape in Philadelphia in 2017. It details both short- and long-term changes in the supply of, demand for, and gaps in care; the year-to-year changes from 2016 to 2017, as well as shifts since the first analyses were conducted in 2014.
Each year, lending institutions across the country report their mortgage lending activity under a law known as the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA). Enacted by Congress in 1975 and amended several times since, HMDA data are a critical resource to understand how dollars flow into communities to support home purchasing, refinancing mortgages, or making home improvements. Regulators use HMDA for various purposes, which include assessments of lenders’ community reinvestment obligations and adherence to civil rights laws.
The 2016 HMDA data were recently released providing an opportunity to look at the local mortgage lending environment – trends in loan volume, the kinds of loans being made, where loans are made, how efficiently different groups can access credit, what entities purchase the home loans once made, and what lenders are originating mortgages in Philadelphia.
Since 2014, Reinvestment Fund has conducted an annual analysis of the gap between the supply of and demand for high-quality child care in Philadelphia. In June 2017 Pennsylvania’s Quality Rating and Improvement System (QRIS), Keystone STARS, initiated changes to the standards for childcare providers across the state.
Reinvestment Fund presents an overview of the changes to the Keystone STARS rating system that may impact the childcare gap analysis, and models how these changes could impact the estimated gap in supply and demand for high-quality child care.
In 2016, Reinvestment Fund conducted a study of the supply of and demand for early childhood education (ECE) in Passaic County, NJ. Adapting a methodology developed for a 2014 study of child care in Philadelphia, the study results for Passaic County, NJ suggest that over half of all ECE (57%) is provided in state licensed childcare centers, and 27% is provided in high-quality centers. With support from the Nicholson Foundation and Taub Foundation, Reinvestment Fund created an interactive web-based tool to present the results of this analysis, accessible at www.passaiccountychildcaremap.org.
Middle neighborhoods are neither the poorest nor the wealthiest neighborhoods in a city, typically experiencing neither precipitous decline nor rapid appreciation. In many cities, they account for a significant share of residents and are reasonably affordable to middle income households. This research brief examines conditions and trends in Philadelphia’s middle neighborhoods differentiated by their racial, ethnic, and national origin makeup. A deeper understanding of the dynamics at play in different types of middle neighborhoods can help guide policy and investment approaches to shore up the inherent strength in these areas, and also head off decline that could potentially diminish not only residents’ financial health and neighborhood quality of life, but also Philadelphia’s overall wellbeing.
Policy Solutions estimated gaps in access to high quality childcare with the support of the William Penn Foundation. The analysis used six different databases to estimate the universe of childcare establishments and capacity in Philadelphia (approximately 25% of which is not certified by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania). The Keystone STARS program, Pennsylvania’s QRIS, provided a metric of childcare quality along a one to four star scale. The methodology was designed and tested in Philadelphia in close consultation with a stakeholder group of 25+ subject matter experts (including policymakers, practitioners, investors, government officials and technical assistance providers).
Fund for Quality (FFQ) helps providers of high-quality early childhood education in Philadelphia reach more families. In 2015, Reinvestment Fund and PHMC created a survey to be administered for each new seat created through FFQ. This white paper presents preliminary findings related to the increased capacity of FFQ-supported providers, along with select survey responses from parents. These findings provide initial insights into the way FFQ support influences the local supply of high-quality care, the children occupying FFQsupported seats, parental preferences for care, and the overall demand for child care in the neighborhoods served by FFQ-supported providers.
The goal of Reinvestment Fund’s ReFresh initiative is to increase the capacity of the community development financial institution (CDFI) industry to fund healthy food projects by creating tools and resources, offering technical assistance, and helping peer organizations learn together. ReFresh has been an important partner as Colorado Enterprise Fund (CEF), headquartered in Denver, Colorado, has grown its portfolio of healthy food lending. In 2016, Reinvestment Fund and CEF collaborated to take a closer look at some of the ways that ReFresh has helped CEF grow its food lending capacity.
In 2016, Matthew Desmond published his truly extraordinary study of evictions in Milwaukee, WI titled Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City. Inspired by Desmond’s work we at Reinvestment Fund decided to examine the eviction issue in Philadelphia, PA. This brief includes an overview of select housing market data in Philadelphia followed by a summary of the eviction filings: rates, patterns and areas for further inquiry into the eviction issue in the city of Philadelphia. Eviction filing records for this brief cover the period 2010-2015, inclusive, and originate with Philadelphia’s Landlord-Tenant Court (LTC).

The doctor who oversaw the nation’s Medicare program and who would play a role in the next administration said he saw no conflict between George Bush’s desire for a kinder America and indications the president-elect would seek major Medicare savings. “Of all the problems of our health care system, I, for one, don’t believe one of the problems is too little money,” William L. Roper said. “The problem is we’re not spending as best we could the money we are spending.” Bush, pressed by reporters about the budget chief’s assertion that Medicare cuts were likely to be a part of a deficit-reduction drive, said only that he wanted to make the program more efficient. Despite widespread criticism that Reagan administration cuts in Medicare spending threatened the welfare of nearly 32 million elderly and disabled Americans covered by the program, the thrust of the approach had been to cut into the profits of providers such as hospitals rather than reducing benefits. Roper, the first physician to head the Medicare program, acknowledged that the next target would be doctor fees and the outcry would be intense. The eventual answer, Roper maintained, was getting more value for dollars spent, which required a more questioning attitude to the way medicine was practiced – a highly emotional topic for doctor and patient alike.

Pursuit intervention on Almond Avenue
A South Dakota woman faces felony and misdemeanor charges after she led a high-speed sheriff's pursuit in Plymouth County while driving a vehicle stolen from Sioux City.
At around 2:45 p.m. Sept. 3, the Plymouth County Sheriff's Office was advised of a vehicle stolen from Sioux City that was reportedly in the area of County Road K22, near County Road C44, according to a press release from the Plymouth County Sheriff's Department.
Deputies and Iowa State Patrol troopers responded and located the vehicle travelling east on Highway 3, about five miles west of Le Mars. Deputies attempted to pull the vehicle over, but the driver failed to stop and a pursuit ensued.
The vehicle travelled through Le Mars on Highway 3 and continued east on 180th Street. The vehicle continued travelling through rural Plymouth County roads until it started east on County Road C16 north of Remsen, according to the press release.
Near the intersection of C16 and Almond Avenue, the Iowa State Patrol used "the pursuit intervention technique," according to the press release, and the vehicle ended up in the ditch.
The driver, identified as 27-year-old Denise Sanchez of South Dakota, was taken into custody without further incident.
Sanchez faces charges including possession of a stolen vehicle, a class C felony, eluding while participating in a felony, a class D felony and operating while intoxicated, first offense, a serious misdemeanor.
"Numerous traffic charges will also be filed after the investigation is complete," the sheriff's office wrote in the press release. Speeds during the pursuit in the rural sections of the county reached approximately 112 miles per hour.
The Plymouth County Sheriff's Office and the Iowa State Patrol were assisted by the Le Mars and Remsen police departments.

Hollywood could be looking at a sizable new hand out.
A bill that was unveiled in the California state legislature Sunday night would boost the Golden State’s film and television tax credits program by $330 million, should Governor Gavin Newsom sign it. The bill’s sponsors include Senator Anthony Portantino and assembly members Wendy Carrillo and Autumn Burke.
According to the proposed legislation, $150 million of the total $330 million would be earmarked for new soundstage construction in the state. Production space is currently limited and additional facilities would allow for more projects to film in California. Lawmakers would also require productions that receive the soundstage credit to submit a diversity plan.
The bill would boost the tax credits program far more than initially expected. In May, Governor Newsom, who is facing a recall, pledged to add $30 million to the state’s film incentives in the wake of California’s $75 billion budget surplus. Then a month later, California lawmakers proposed a $180 million injection into program.
“This is an opportunity for those productions, TV and others, in places like Georgia, whose values don’t necessarily always align with the production crews, to consider coming back to the state of California,” said the governor at the time, alluding to the Peach State’s controversial voter law.
The substantial new funds would add to the tax incentive program’s $330 million-a-year pot. Should the bill pass, the film commission could start distributing the funds next year. The film office holds various allocation periods throughout the year for both television and feature projects that meet certain budget thresholds, with projects applying for tax credits proportional to their in-state spending.

The historic region of León is located in the North-West of Spain. The city is the most important crossroad in NW Spain and has a metro area of around 225.000 inhabitants. Due to its location, it has been since long populated. Next to the Cantabrian mountains and irrigated by numerous rivers is the main city in the St. James Way before arriving to Santiago de Compostela.
The city was founded by the Romans more than 2.000 years ago to defend the mines in the mountains, but the area was before populated by Celts and Iberians,during the Middle Ages it was the main city in Christian Spain. It had its own Kingdom which controlled a vast territory and somehow it´s been the origin of what we now know as Spain. The main land of the Old kingdom of León is what nowadays are the provinces of León, Zamora and Salamanca, even though some parts of Portugal, Galicia, Asturias, Castille and Extremadura also formed part of it.
In Modern days, the city is a place with lots of cultural life, green areas and historic buildings; the nearby mountains make it even more attractive and within a 45 min. ride you can do winter sports or visit wonderful charming villages. Behind the mountains you´ll find our brother region of Asturias with the wild Cantabrian Sea; to the west, León limits with the beatiful Galicia and to the South-East with the historic and rival region of Castille.
But let´s stop the talk and see by yourself the beauty of my historic home-city.
Comments are very welcome
You can arrive to León by foot, horse or bike (mainly pilgers) but if you are not one of them you still can come by road, train or by plane in the new terminal. León is one of the main military airports in the country and has a long flying tradition. During the Spanish Civil war the Condor Legion (Hitler´s aid airforce to Franco) settled here. Still a very important military base and since almost twenty years it shares the base with civil flights.

Several new counties added to MN burn ban
ST. PAUL, MINN. (Valley News Live) - The intense drought in Minnesota has the Department of Natural Resources adding more counties to the existing burn ban.
The new counties include: Aitkin, Becker, Benton, Carlton, Clearwater, Mahnomen and Stearns counties.
These counties are added to the existing list including Beltrami, Cass, Cook, Crow Wing, Hubbard, Lake of the Woods, Lake Morrison, St. Louis, Todd, Wadena and the eastern part of Roseau County.
Under a burn ban, you are not allowed fires in remote areas or for backcountry camping. If you have a fire ring and it’s used near a home, cabin or resort, the fire may be permitted pending local ordinances.
The state will also stop issuing burn permits for brush or yard waste.
This is all done in an effort to prevent wildfires. According to the DNR, more than 1,600 wildfires have been reported in the state this year, burning a total of 35,000+ acres.

The pesky insects damage turf grasses in the coastal plain and occasionally in piedmont areas of Georgia. They're active from early spring to late fall, he said. But they damage turf the most in late summer and early fall.
The best time to cancel their dinner reservations, Hudson said, is around the first week in July, when all of the season's eggs have hatched but the nymphs are still too small to do much damage.
"Mole crickets spend the winter mostly as adults in the soil," Hudson said. "As the weather warms, adults emerge and begin to feed and mate, beginning in March and continuing into May and June."
More mole cricketsMole crickets lay eggs in the soil, mostly in April and May. A single female may lay as many as six or eight clutches of about 40 eggs per clutch.
In three to six weeks, he said, the eggs hatch into nymphs that look much like adults but are smaller and don't have wings. Nymphs grow all summer and change into adults in the fall.
"Mole crickets damage turf both by tunneling and by feeding on the grass," Hudson said.
At low infestation levels, tunneling is probably the more damaging, he said, particularly in newly seeded areas.
With higher infestations, mole crickets will eat the grass and leave the soil pulverized and spongy to the step. Although adults can do considerable damage in the spring, the most serious injury usually comes from August to October, when the nymphs are large and active.
'Take that!'By late June or early July, though, all the eggs should have hatched into nymphs, he said. That's when an insecticide treatment can punch their little lunch tickets.
Homeowner insecticide options are limited. Products containing bifenthrin are effective if you apply them in June and July against small nymphs.
Products containing fipronil are effective, too. And they have a longer window of effective application - from early June through mid-July in most of Georgia's mole cricket infestations.
Irrigate before you apply insecticide sprays or granules if the soil is dry, Hudson said. Treat as late in the afternoon as you can, and water in sprays and granules with a quarter-inch of irrigation soon after application, unless the label advises otherwise.
Plan BAnother option is to treat them in fall or spring with insecticide baits. A number of commercial baits are available.
Baits are best used in the fall or spring, Hudson said, because they work better when the crickets are bigger.
"An advantage to baits is that you don't have to water them in," he said. For best results, apply baits near dusk.
You can find out how many mole crickets you have, he said, with a detergent solution. Dissolve 1 ounce of liquid detergent in 2 gallons of water and pour it over 1 square yard. Then count the number of mole crickets that emerge.
Repeat the process around the yard. A rule-of-thumb is that if you flush an average of more than five crickets per site, treat the lawn with an insecticide. But that can vary, Hudson said.
"It really depends on how healthy your lawn turf is and what demands you place on it," he said. "If you take really good care of it and just look at it, the turf can stand a lot of mole crickets and stay healthy."

As you walk forth into the end of 2014, the energy of completeness walks slowly by your side. In the recognition of completeness you come to the apex of your knowing, releasing the need for things. All is automatically filled by parallel parts of completion. As you sit in all of what you once were and all that you are destined to be, you come to a climatic point of orientation. You look back upon your life and ponder, was all of that necessary in order to become? Could I have reached an all-natural state without the stress, the strains, the pains, and the hurts? The answer that you hear so tediously in the background of your thinking is No!

95 OAS probationers visit Bhubaneswar Operations Centre
Bhubaneswar: In order to have a hands-on knowledge on the operations and utility of the command and control centre for the Smart City Project, 95 OAS probationers undergoing training at Gopabandhu Academy of Administration visited the Bhubaneswar Operations Centre (BOC) at Bhubaneswar Smart City Limited (BSCL) on Saturday.
Led by Joint Commissioner of Gopabandhu Academy of Administration Prafulla Swain, last evening, the probationers were delighted to see the state-of-the art facility, which would manage the city operations.
Notably, the first-of-its-kind centralised command and control centre to monitor, operate, and control existing services of the city, was inaugurated by Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik on July 9.
The Adaptive Traffic Signal System, tracking of buses and Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation vehicles along with Grievance Redressal System is being operationalised at present from BOC.
General Manager (Operations) of BSCL Bijay Kumar Swain explained how the operations centre was envisaged to be developed further in a manner to keep an eye on several functions like traffic management, incident management, city surveillance, emergency services and disaster management.
The state-of-the-art centre includes a massive video wall of more than 80-foot length (with 16 x 2 configuration of 70 inch panels) and will be used to monitor the large volume of close circuit television (CCTV) footage and highly sophisticated sensor data.
It will provide a digital platform for integrating multiple city sub-systems of parking, public transport, and Common Payment Card.
Sambit Satpathy, a probationer said “I am happy to see this command and control centre and really proud that the being our State Capital, Bhubaneswar has done such progress during the development of the Smart City.”
Rupalika Das added that the technological innovations for the city’s development and citizen’s welfare speak a lot about the meaningful implementation of the Smart City ideas. “I hope the city will benefit immensely from BOC’’ she said.
After visiting the BOC the probationers also visited the BSCL office and interacted with several project leaders to know more about the Smart City work.

Toyota announced an additional $1.3 billion of investment at its Georgetown, Kentucky plant today. The brand said in a statement that the investment will be earmarked for assembling its upcoming three-row electric SUV for the U.S. market.
The new investment will also support the construction of a new battery assembly line. This complements Toyota's plans to assemble batteries at its North Carolina facility. With this latest investment, Toyota's commitment to electrification in the U.S. amounts to nearly $10 billion.
Get Fully Charged
Toyota steps up its U.S. electrification efforts
Toyota has long been accused of being an intentional latecomer to the EV game, with company leadership favoring hydrogen and hybrid cars. It's had a ton of success lately with the latter, but may now be coming around on full EVs.
At Toyota's Beyond Zero summit in 2021, the automaker announced its plan to launch 30 BEVs globally by 2030. One of those concepts was labeled “bZ Large SUV.” The new model for North America is likely related to that and is rumored to be named the bZ5x.
Toyota's largest global manufacturing site in Georgetown, Kentucky
After decades of building combustion and hybrid cars, Toyota is a late bloomer in the EV race. There’s only one Toyota-branded pure electric car sold in the U.S., the bZ4x. The Subaru Solterra and the Lexus RZ 450e are the same underneath but wear different clothes.
The new investment comes as part of Toyota's multi-pronged approach to electrification. That approach includes promoting self-charging hybrids, plug-in hybrids (PHEVs), hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles (FCEVs), and battery electric vehicles (BEVs). Toyota will also continue to invest in combustion engines.
Jack Hollis, Toyota Motor North America’s head of sales, doubled down on this approach recently. “Our dealers are not telling us that the customer wants EVs more than other things. They’re telling us they want EVs as a choice,” he said at a NADA conference last week.

Senior financiers are to gather at the London Stock Exchange to advise young women on how to advance their financial services careers.
The event is part of the UK Treasury’s Women in Finance Charter and will see 40 senior financial services leaders advise 40 women at the beginning of their finance careers. They will offer advice on how to advance in this male-dominated industry.
The session will use speed mentoring techniques with each participant having a series of short, focused conversations.
Firms present include Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, HSBC and Jupiter Asset Management, all of which have signed the Treasur’s charter, which commits firms to increasing gender diversity at senior levels of the business.
A Treasury-backed review found 77% of women feel mentoring schemes will make a diffence to their career progression.
Banks were found to be setting the most ambitious goals relative to their current gender diversity levels, as a group they aim to increase the number of women in senior roles by more than 40% over the next five years.
Xavier Rolet, CEO of London Stock Exchange Group, will open the event, and said: “A diverse global workforce is pivotal to the success of our business, and as a signatory to the Women in Finance Charter, we are firmly committed to nurturing female talent within all levels of our organisation.”

Food Matters Live Trends Panel – A Taste of Trends: Immune Health in 2023
17th October 2022
Written by Zainab Jawed and Katie Avis
Last week, two of our placement students, Katie and Zainab, had the opportunity to attend a Food Matters Live Trends panel – A taste of trends: immune health in 2023, on behalf of HRS. Here’s what they learnt!
What is driving consumers to buy immune health products?
The Covid-19 pandemic has undeniably altered our perceptions of immune health. Where we once took our immune defences for granted, more and more people are now searching for ways to aid our bodies in keeping fit and well. Looking back, it is now evident that Covid-19 has had a significant impact on the food and nutrition landscape.
The public is now more aware than ever about the impact that diet and lifestyle factors can have on health and health outcomes. During the pandemic, many people reflected on why they were so concerned about Covid-19 and realised that they might not be as healthy as they would like to be. For example, they started to consider what they eat, how much sleep they get, how much exercise they do and so on. So along came the influx of home workout videos, meditation apps and healthy eating guides, which corresponded to consumers’ newly proactive nature. People have gradually seen the benefits of their lifestyle changes and are now looking for ways to maintain them.
In addition, consumers have become more and more interested in ‘quick fixes’ to support their health needs. ‘Boosting’ their immune health is what they seem to be after. People are actively looking for products that will aid their immune defences and help them avoid illnesses or recover faster. They want products that offer a variety of benefits in order to get the most bang for their buck. In response to this, many products have modified their marketing strategy to emphasise their role in immune health support. Many more immune claims, for example, are being used on juices, soups, tea, and even snacks. Consumers, on the other hand, are becoming more sceptical; they want to see scientific evidence to back up the health claims they hear. But not too much, as that would be far too overwhelming.
Food supplements or food-like supplements?
Consumption trends indicate that people are starting to prefer immune-boosting foods and drinks over the traditional capsule or syrup supplements. Consumers are frequently sceptical of what’s inside the supplements, they are concerned about forgetting to take them, and the pleasure of eating or drinking something that tastes good is often the priority.
So, is there evidence to support the choices that consumers are making? Do supplements have their place?
The trends panel discussed how evidence suggests that supplements traditionally used for immune health, such as vitamin C, do not seem to influence the likelihood of becoming infected. Probiotic supplementation, on the other hand, have been shown to be beneficial. But why is this the case? 80% of our immune system sits around the gut. Gut bacteria absorb proteins from food and deliver them to immune cells via the gut lining. Practices that promote a diverse and healthy gut microbiome can therefore benefit immune health. For example, research shows that a Mediterranean dietary pattern, rich in fruits and vegetables, nuts, seeds, wholegrains, and legumes is best when it comes to supporting gut health. With its numerous components, this dietary pattern is difficult to translate into a single product. As a result, many manufacturers are incorporating elements of it into their products, such as adding wholegrains and legumes in salads and soups. Furthermore, consumer spending habits have shifted, with kombucha and fermented products on the rise. However, it should be noted that one size does not fit all, and different people will react differently to probiotics. What might benefit someone may have no effect on someone else.
Will the obsession with improving immune health fade as we transition from a pandemic to an endemic? According to the experts on the trends panel, this focus on immunity is here to stay for the foreseeable future.
What does this mean for health care professionals?
Registered Dietitians and Nutritionists can play a vital role in supporting consumers with making informed decisions and really understand the products they are purchasing. This includes advising on a balanced food intake and deciphering health claims. Companies and brands should be encouraged to collaborate with Nutritionists and Registered Dietitians to sort through the available scientific evidence, cut through the noise, and get the right message across.
This panel talk broadened our knowledge of an important topic and provided an excellent platform for gaining the most up to date industry insights and consumer data. Thank you Food matters live for this insightful discussion!

Qualitative and quantitative recognition of chiral drugs based on terahertz spectroscopy
Chiral drugs are drugs with chiral or asymmetric centres in their molecular structure. Different enantiomers of the same chiral drug have noticeably different pharmacological activities and pharmacokinetic properties. However, its distinction has been perplexing scholars for many years in the qualitative and quantitative detection of antagonistic drugs. Conventional detection methods, such as polarimetry, circular dichroism, and high-performance liquid chromatography, are time consuming, cause sample loss and have cumbersome operations, and they can be applied only to the sampling method. In this paper, we propose a fast, accurate, qualitative and quantitative method for the study of chiral drugs based on linearly polarized terahertz (THz) spectroscopy and imaging technology. Taking ibuprofen as an example, based on the THz absorption spectra of the enantiomers RS-ibuprofen, (R)-(−)-ibuprofen, and (S)-(+)-ibuprofen, their characteristic peak frequencies, peak amplitude differences and peak area differences were extracted to qualitatively and quantitatively distinguish and identify the three substances. THz spectral imaging provides more intuitive results than those obtained from previous methods. In quantitative identification, the stability and detection accuracy of THz spectroscopy are much greater than those of Raman spectroscopy (88.8–99.8% vs. 21.42–94.62%, respectively). The qualitative recognition accuracy was 100%, and the quantitative recognition standard deviation was less than 0.01, and it is also a non-destructive testing method. Furthermore, the above method combined with principal component analysis (PCA) and the support vector machine (SVM) neural network classification algorithm was applied to the analysis of other chiral drugs. These results are significant for the rapid, accurate and non-destructive identification of chiral drugs.

The Musser Public Library (MPL) is offering another cohort of LENA (Learning Environmental Analysis) to guide parents and adult caregivers in helping children ages 0-3 develop their minds, particularly in the area of language skills.
The no-cost program still has openings. It will begin around the middle of June and lasts 10 weeks.
During the program – at home and everywhere – participating children wear a small recording device. A shirt with a pocket for the device is provided. The device tracks how many words the people in their lives speak to them and their number of interactions. It does not record what words are being said.
Parents and caregivers meet weekly with the children’s librarians to learn more about how to talk to children up through age three (3) in an engaging and understandable manner. They also receive books for the children. Children are welcome at these sessions, but their attendance is not required.
The local LENA program is funded by a combination of an Early Childhood Iowa – Muscatine County grant and MPL funding.
Children’s Librarian Betty Collins encourages anyone interested to sign up for the next cohort by sending an email to her at firstname.lastname@example.org or calling her at (563) 263-3065.

In 1998, in a response to significant industry need the British Retail Consortium, or BRC, introduced its first BRC Food Technical Standard to evaluate the food brands that retailers put onto their shelves. A little more than 10 years later, in 2009, BRC and RILA, or the Retail Industry Leaders Association, collaborated on a new standard, called the Global Standard for Consumer Products North America. What they developed was a series of process safety management standards which manufacturers, food handlers, and retailers would follow to ensure food was being handled properly. These events represented significant steps toward bringing down the incidence of food borne illnesses like E. coli, which can incubate for one to 10 days.
These process safety management standards developed by BRC and other certifying agencies around the globe have paved newer paths toward handling food better and of eating safe foods. Through specific training in ISO 14000, a set of environmental process safety management standards designed to aid organizations in minimizing how what they do affects the natural environment through following stricter standards, and other certifications like ISO 50001, which helps businesses broaden the energy consuming use of their assets, companies see a real difference in their quality. There are other food safety certification standards that tie very closely with the process safety management mentioned earlier, including Haccp certification training, CMMI certification, Iso 9000 training and ISO 9001 training, and all aim toward bringing better quality foods that are more safely handled to market.

Australian PM says she favors vote on gay marriage; critics say vote is destined to fail
CANBERRA, Australia (AP) ' Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard says she favors allowing a parliamentary vote on same-sex marriage ' although she personally opposes changing the law.
In an opinion piece published Tuesday in the Sydney Morning Herald and other Australian newspapers, Gillard says lawmakers "should be free to vote in Parliament according to their own values and beliefs."
However, Gillard quickly came under attack from same-sex marriage advocates, who claim the prime minister is endorsing a vote she knows is destined to fail in order to keep the status quo.
Currently, three Australian states recognize civil unions, which entitle same-sex couples to the same federal benefits as married couples. Recent polls indicate a majority of Australians favor allowing same-sex marriage.
