PROPOSED SABAL TRAIL RAISES ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE, HEALTH CONCERNS
CONGRESSMAN BISHOP AND GEORGIA HOUSE DEMOCRATS DEMAND ALTERNATIVES
ALBANY, GA — Today, Congressman Sanford D. Bishop Jr. (GA-02)
spearheaded a letter with Congressmen John Lewis (GA-05), Henry
‘Hank’ Johnson Jr. (GA-04), and David Scott (GA-13) to the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) raising concerns regarding Sabal
Trail’s application for a certificate of public convenience and
necessity to construct a 516-mile-long, 36-inch-diameter natural gas
pipeline through Alabama, Georgia, and Florida. The letter
especially cites the proposed location of the pipeline and an
accompanying compressor station in Albany, Georgia, which is located
in Dougherty County. The proposed location raises serious
environmental justice issues that have not been fully addressed by
FERC in its Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) for the
Congressman Bishop, as well as Representatives Lewis, Scott, and
Johnson, are members of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC), which
has highlighted issues of environmental justice. The Environmental

I recently heard of a scandalous situation involving something called a ‘fake Chloe Silverado bag’.It’s so frustrating to think that people exist who scam innocent others in such a way. Naturally, as soon as I heard about it, I had to know more.
I did some research and what I found is that someone had put up a website advertising the sale of luxury designer bags. So far, so good. But, unfortunately, the bags were actually counterfeits. Anyone who purchased them believed that they had the real-deal and they were paying well over the odds for something they ended up being duped into buying; it was very sneaky.
I was horrified when I heard that part of the scam effort revolved around the false promise of authenticity. A special kind of hologram seal was created the replicate the real Chloe Silverado collection. It seems like they had gone to great lengths to create these bags to appear to be genuine.
What was worse is that the crooked website had used some gullible models to sell the bogus items. Testimonies were made on the website to provide false reassurance to the consumer. Of course, these testimonies weren’t real either.
My first thought was that I hope no one I know has gotten sucked into buying one of these fake Chloe Silverado bags. I’m sure they felt really disappointed, and I personally felt really angry as it’s a horrible thing to do.
Next, I tried to think of what the police or louis vuitton outlet authorities could be doing about these scammers, louis vuitton outlet but it seems like their efforts so far are making no great impact. Despite warnings and notice boards being put up all around the country, there are still people who are getting duped at every turn. It’s a shame that enough isn’t being done to catch the culprits who are making a living off of scamming others out of their hard-earned money.
I think that people need to be increasingly aware of this type of thing. Everyone needs to be vigilant and look out for each other so that they don’t fall into this kind of trap themselves. Even with times being tough financially, it’s better to not spend a penny than to risk your money on a fake Chloe Silverado bag.
It’s sad to see that some people will stoop so low as to try and exploit people who only have the best intentions. We should be helping each other, not taking advantage of people in such a malicious way.
I think that greater measures should be taken by the government to ensure the protection of vulnerable people online since it seems like there are some individuals who don’t seem to have any moral compass when it comes to these scams.
Maybe if there was some kind of certification scheme available through legitimate sources it could help people to make sure anything they’re buying is genuine. Especially when it comes to luxury and designer goods, there

How can I listen to radio through WiFi?
Internet radio can be accessed using your web browser, or you can use a media player if you prefer. Windows Media Player and VLC are both suitable programs for streaming radio from the internet, and you can bookmark your favourite stations for easy access.
What is the WiFi radio?
One type of device might be called a “Wi-Fi radio” or “Internet radio”. Rather than receive radio waves from local broadcast stations, it connects to the Internet through an available WiFi network (you must be able to log in), and it plays Internet audio streams through its own mono or stereo speakers.
Is there an Internet radio?
Internet radio (also web radio, net radio, streaming radio, e-radio, IP radio, online radio) is a digital audio service transmitted via the Internet. It can either be used as a stand-alone device running through the internet, or as a software running through a single computer.
Does a digital radio need WiFi?
The short answer to this question is: No, DAB radio doesn’t need WiFi or an internet connection. These transmissions are in the form of DAB in the UK, although the later and more efficient DAB+ technology is available in other countries and may become the standard here although there are no plans to do this just yet.
Is Internet radio better than FM?
Internet radio offers by far the widest choice — tens of thousands of stations — and the most variable sound quality. But it can offer better sound quality, for two reasons. The 320kbps Radio 3 stream is encoded using AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) rather than MP2. Technically, it’s better than FM.
What is the best free radio app?
Best free music apps: free music on Android and iPhone
- Spotify. Still top of the game, though there’s plenty of hi-res competition around.
- Amazon Prime Music. The best streaming service you didn’t know you had.
- YouTube Music.
- TuneIn Radio.
- BBC Sounds.
What are 3 types of wireless connections?
There are four types of wireless networks — wireless local area networks, wireless metropolitan area networks, wireless personal area networks and wireless wide area networks — each with its own function. Below we discuss the different types of wireless networks and the various equipment and connections they require.
What is difference between wireless and Wi-Fi?
WiFi generally refers to wireless LAN (local area network) — the kind you get when you set up an 802.11 a/b/g/n router. Wireless usually means a wireless connection provided by a cell phone company, used by smartphones and laptops with a wireless Internet card.
Can I play any music on my internet radio station?
As a noncommercial broadcast radio station (that might also stream over the Internet), you cannot simply play any music you want legally; you need permission. Fortunately, you don’t have to go around cutting checks to every band whose music you use. Rather, you can pay to license music in bulk.
How do Internet radio stations work?
Online radio is either pre-recorded MP3 files or live, via-a-microphone broadcasts that are streamed over the Internet. They mix it all together, put it into a format that can be streamed and send it out through the Internet sound waves at the click of a link.
How do Internet radio stations make money?
Mimicking the same monetisation model as traditional terrestrial radio stations, internet radio stations make money mostly from ads as well as sponsors. These ads can be everything from on-air commercials, to Google ads placed on their site. Your marketing options and revenue increase as your listeners increase.
How does digital FM work?
In the United States, digital radio is broadcast using in-band on-channel technology. This enables radio stations to broadcast their regular FM or AM signal and their digital signal at the same frequency. In other words, a station at 88.7 FM would have a digital signal at 88.7 FM on a digital radio.
Which is better DAB or FM?
Q. Which is better, FM vs DAB? A: DAB. Digital radio is built to be better than FM as it offers more channels to choose from, has a more reliable signal and is available over longer distances.
Is digital radio the same as DAB?
DAB+ uses exactly the same transmitters and broadcast technology as DAB, it simply converts sound to digital in a different way and therefore requires sets capable of receiving DAB+. The majority of digital stations will continue to be broadcast on DAB for the forseeable future.

I recently read this novel on a recommendation. I thought it was strictly historical fiction. Instead, I found an allegory framed by a snippet of American history. It took me several chapters to adjust to Frazier's style of writing. His tale was weird and wonderful and gruesome almost beyond belief. I thought the ending rather abrupt. I'm not sure whether I would read any of Frazier's subsequent novels.
Dec 22, 2011
This is a truly wonderful story, beautifully told.
Oct 9, 2007
If you like war books mixed with a touch of really depressing romance, you'll probably love this. The writing style is interesting with the story line - be prepared to go without quotation marks in dialogue areas. This is better read if you have a good knowledge of Civil-War-era Southern society. History is written by the victors, so most of our collective Civil War knowledge comes from the Union perspective. This book challenges that perspective, giving a sympathetic view of a war-torn society.

A Love Letter
Being a resident of the Blue Ridge Mountains, and living down the road from Cold Mountain itself, I picked up the book out of curiosity, and with a hope to recognize some old hiking grounds. What I found instead was a masterpiece of narrative, and not about the adversity facing two lovers.
This is a love letter to the mountains. Frazier carefully details each scene in Cold Mountain with the smell of sweet hay, the buzzing of cicadas and wisps of bugs in the sunset floating over the tall weeds just outside of the garden. You're immediately transported to a time and place where you're reminded that yes, life can be simple, and what you need can be cultivated from the earth outside your door.
Several readers have mentioned that they found the book to be boring. I think if you get past the first chapter, the book can engage the reader completely.
Jul 19, 2007
This is an outstanding book. A true representation of the "war of nothern agression" portrayed through southern eyes. Although not a historical book, it is based on the authors' family. A wonderfull love story intertwined around the idiocy and terrible price of war. Truly a good read!

NEWBERRY, S.C. — According to the SC Department of Social Services, in the Midlands, there are more than 1,000 kids in foster care. Many have to stay in the DSS's offices for extended periods of time.
In Newberry, a non-profit opened what it’s calling a safe space to make the process a lot smoother.
“Her only option was to sleep in a chair in a cubicle with her case worker. And when she told me that story that’s when it kind of clicked. I said we can do better," Jennifer Tice co-founder of LilyPad said.
Jennifer and Ben Tice recalled the night one of the foster teens the couple took in had no bed to sleep in. The teen had to sleep in the DSS office. They say that story started the non-profit LilyPad because it provides a soft place to land like the rooms it creates for foster care youth.
“To have a space specifically designated with comfortable furniture seep spaces and all the linens they need. Tv, Nintendo switch, entertainment because if they’re not in school, if their spring break or during summer they have to stay in the building,” Jennifer said.
The organization started in the spring of 2022 in Greenville County, with a room for youth there. Its latest project is providing a safe space for youth in Newberry county.
“the seventh lilypad in Newberry county. LilyPad’s only been around for about a year. And we’ve been so appreciative of their work to create these spaces that are safe comfortable environments,” Will Batchelor with DSS said.
According to DSS, in South Carolina there are more than 3,800 children in foster care. But the room also serves children traveling to the next county as well as those registered in Newberry County.
“A lot of these kids do get transported around to different parts of the state where they’re coming from the low country to the upstate," Ben Tice said.
He said the goal is to create a constant in foster child’s ever-changing circumstances.
“For those kids to be able to have at least a little consistency that if they do go from one office to another they can know okay there’ll be a lilypad there,” Tice added.
LilyPad says the goal is to provide a room like this in every county in South Carolina.

The town of Petal got a little brighter with a new mural showcasing the relationship between the Petal Fire Department, Petal School District and the community.
The mural, which is located on the side of Fire Station # 3 on Mississippi 42, is the work of Brooke Bowden, an art teacher at Petal Upper Elementary School. The project, which is expected to be completed shortly after Thanksgiving, highlights several elements from each of the three aforementioned entities.
âI’m super excited about this project,â Bowden said. âI love the idea of ââconnecting our community and our schools through art. ”
The mural features the words “Home of the Petal Panthers”, with “Petal” prominently displayed in the middle. Within each of the five letters of “Petal,” various designs can be found including a fire hydrant, the Petal Panther mascot, a fire engine, and fans cheering for a sporting event.
“I wanted to do community spirit, so I didn’t want to do specific sports, because that’s the only thing I love about Petal is that there are so many things people are doing. are involved, âBowden said. âI wanted to show the city the cheers in general, so the first letters I wrote were the ‘Panthers’.
âWhen I was doing the ‘Petal’ part, the hydrants right in front of the station – and the flagpole is right behind – I knew I wanted to incorporate the fire station, so that was the fire truck and everything. that. Then I knew I wanted to be the panther, because he’s a bit like the resort’s mascot.
For the final part of the mural, Bowden expects to paint a silhouette of kindergarten and elementary school students pointing fingers at a graduate from the Petal School District.
âI want to show that we’re not just arts and sports, but we’re academics too,â Bowden said. âThe community supports that as well, and that’s what makes us one Petal community.
âSo that’s my idea. I have the elevator until Thanksgiving, and so I’m trying to finish – I have to do some touch-ups and finish the highlights and all the extra stuff, so hopefully that’ll be done maybe even before Thanksgiving. ”
The mural is from the Petal Fire Department, where firefighter Will Lewis pitched the idea to Fire Chief Joe Hendry. From there, Hendry broached the concept with Matt Dillon, the Superintendent of the Petal School District, to make the idea a reality.
âI liked it, so I told Dr. Dillon about it, and he was really excited about it,â Hendry said. âIt looks great, and I think it’s a good marriage between the community, the city and the school district.
“We’re going to have to turn on some lights, and unfortunately we’re probably going to have to set up cameras so no one disfigures him.”
The land where Station 3 is located, adjacent to Petal High School, was donated by the school district.Last month, the Petal Fire Department began displaying the district’s panther mascot on Engine 3.
âIt was really a tribute to the school district and our support for the school,â said Hendry. âIt kind of started after Hattiesburg got a USM pumper (truck) – it’s black and gold.
“(School officials) were talking about it last year, and I said” well, we can put the panther on the engine 3. good story about the school and the community.
Dillon said the district has an excellent working relationship with the department and appreciates their continued support.
âI think it’s just about who we are as Petal,â he said. âWhen you have an organization like the fire department, with Chief Hendry, to want to showcase the school and the city as a whole, to represent the fire department, it just shows that we are all Petals. Panthers.
âI think it’s pretty special that I can see that depicted on that wall right there on Hwy 42 in such an important place. Plus, we’re a district that believes in academics, the arts and athletics, and it’s a beautiful work of art that Brooke – one of our own very talented artists – was able to achieve in such a short time. time. ”


Fyvie wants to stick around and put things right for Hibs
Fraser Fyvie has added his name to the list of Hibs players who have declared a desire to stay and help the club win promotion from next season's Championship.
Doubts persist about how many of the current team will remain at Easter Road following this season’s failure to secure a return to the Premiership.
However, the likes of Marvin Bartley, Darren McGregor and James Keatings have already intimated that they want to stay at Hibs and put things right next season. And now Fyvie, who is contracted until next summer, has delivered a timely pre-Scottish Cup final boost by stating that he also remains totally content with the Edinburgh club and, unless told he is surplus to requirements, will be going nowhere.
“I like it here, I enjoy myself here,” said the 23-year-old midfielder, who has been a mainstay of the Hibs team this season. “My family and my kids are settled here. I thoroughly enjoy playing here. Obviously it is disappointing to not get to where we want to be, and some people might say where we should be, but we have to justify being in that league by winning something.
“I am happy here and I have another year on my contract so as far as I am aware I won’t be going anywhere.”
It remains to be seen how much of the current Hibs squad will remain intact beyond Saturday’s Hampden showdown with Rangers. On-loan trio Anthony Stokes, Liam Henderson and Niklas Gunnarsson are scheduled to return to their parent clubs, while highly-regarded defender Paul Hanlon is out of contract and set to have several options on the table. Prized assets John McGinn and Jason Cummings are also sure to attract interest from elsewhere despite being under contract.
Fyvie is hopeful that the sense of harmony in the Hibs squad will help persuade the majority of his colleagues to stick around for another tilt at promotion. “I think it will,” he said. “The club’s main aim is always to get promotion and I am sure it will be the same next season. As a player, I hope that is the case.”

Inside the Maze of Fire… Kindled with Desire
Boiling the Cauldron true… Filled with WITCHES BREW
-MANILLA ROAD, “Open The Gates”
WITCHES BREW is an underground record label based out of Germany. The name was inspired by the MANILLA ROAD song quoted above. Previous to starting the label I ran (and still do) an online zine called The Metal Gospel. It was through the zine that I was exposed to some really cool demos from unsigned bands which got me thinking: “I would sign these guys if I had my own label !”. I made it a reality in early 2002.
My vision with WITCHES BREW is to release stuff from bands that capture the true spirit of Heavy Metal, regardless of style. These days it seems a lot of focus has been taken off the fact that Metal is about fun, “attitude”, having a good time and the most important thing of all: MUSIC. I want to bring that kind of atmosphere back in the forefront. Those who “live” Metal know what I am talking about and also know that Metal is not about image, what format the music is recorded on or how limited it is in quantity. The bands on WITCHES BREW are those I would not hesitate to buy something from and neither should you. 😉
If you think along the same lines as I then get in touch ! Iīm especially looking for labels that are into Thrash, oldschool Death, REAL Black, Viking / Folk / Celtic, Heavy Metal to trade with.
A note to zines / radio / other writing for promo requests. Donīt. If you are worthy I will get in touch. All emails asking for promos will be deleted, unanswered. It may seem harsh but itīs amazing how many people claim to be such fans of our bands yet mispell their names, list bands not even on Witches Brew and other stupid shit. If you are such a “big” fan and want to actually SUPPORT the bands you claim to love then go to their websites and BUY the album from them OR buy it here. The underground stays alive because people put effort into REAL support and that means laying down your hard earned cash so underground labels and bands can keep going.

Guaranga Transcendental Food is a welcoming corner of Madrid, with a relaxing atmosphere. You shouldn’t expect luxury, but instead simple, balanced and nutritious food, cooked with love ♥
Everyday Guaranga Transcendental Food creates a fixed menu, which you can eat at lunch or dinner.
The menu usually consists of a tea which is prepared for everyone, a soup as a starter, a beautifully balanced plate, and a dessert. You can check their daily offering on their Facebook Guaranga Transcendental Food, where they post the plates of the day.
The ingredients are grown in a plot outside the city, in an ecological organic garden. All the food is vegetarian, as the restaurant is a Hare Krishna restaurant, which forbids the eating of animals and promotes a vegetarian lifestyle. I took this from the official website of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness:
The preparation and eating of food should be based on principles of compassion, non-violence and balanced living. Thus, Krishna devotees advocate a lacto-vegetarian diet, strictly avoiding meat, fish and eggs.
Everytime I go to Guaranga Transcendental, I leave with a feeling which I can only describe as my tummy being “happy”! Strange, I know, but having looked further into the background of the restaurant I think I understand why this might be.
For Krishna devotees, cooking is intertwined with spirituality; the art of cooking is a sacred experience. Furthermore, they believe that the food absorbs the consciousness of the cook, so if you are angry smashing up those chickpeas, Krishna philosophy says that you are transferring that conciousness to the food- and then to the person who eats it. The first time that I visited Guaranga Transcendental, a friend told me that the chef offers each dish to Krishna before serving, which might explain the soothing feeling after eating : )
Even if you are not a Hare Krishna devotee, this is reminder to slow down, watch what you are cooking and eat consciously. Our lives are so busy, especially when settling in a new city like Madrid. Slow Food has some good tips on how get involved in slow food and be a responsible consumer.
For gluten free peoples like me, the dessert can be a yoghurt with honey, nuts and berries, or if you are vegan, a simple cup of fresh fruit, depending on the produce that they have that day.
You can also see the Hare Krishna mantra on the mirror, which is a chant to enhance consciousness and therefore spirituality. You can hear just one example of the Hare Krishna mantra here, if you are interested.

>> which i love because photographs can sometimes have quite a bit of wear and tear over the years. this is gorgeous and comes with such a fabulous story attached to it. typically when we have pieces that come in to auction that we're unsure of an autograph you can have it authenticated. we all do that as auction houses and it helps sell the piece, it's a little like certifying a diamond, it eliminates any issues.
>> something like this, what do we think?
>> $2,000 to $3,000.
>> it cost about $300 to have it authenticated.
>> worth doing to know it's worth that much. next uhm up a reginald marsh painting from jody in westchester.
>> it was in her grandparents house 50 years. it's been top of her armoire gathering dust and she was told it has some value. she wants to know.
>> this is a nice piece because it's a drawing, an original artwork, not one of many and he was known for bathers, so this is a good example of what he would have done as an artist, and --
>> lots of bathers.
>> lots of bathers. about $1,500 to $3,000.
>> fantastic, pretty good.
>> next one is a micromosaic. we have jonan along with us. have you heard? this is the first time.
>> this came from joan's parents, they were given it by the vatican by the pope actually for making a donation, and kate has seen pieces like this before.
>> i have. this is a pretty classic theme as a micromosaic goes. they come up to auction every once in a while . what's amazing the tiles are cut and laid in by hand, this is all hand done work.
>> looks like a painting from far away.
>> doesn't it? a piece like this at auction about $7,000 to $9,000.
>> pretty good.
>> what do you think, joan?
>> very good. very good.
>> it could sell as much as $15,000. really high prices.
>> thank you.
>> we've got a hardhat near and dear to our hearts, a nasa hardhat brought in by our stage danger dave auerbach.

>> so you know it has value.
>> oh, yeah, absolutely.
>> now i know you know what it's worth now.
>> well i took a peek in the numbers.
>> something like this, even though there's so much nasa material out on the market, this is actually worth potentially $5,000 or more.
>> not bad.
>> he's giving it the thumbs up.
>> michelle sent this sword in, there's a legend in her family her grandfather was actually a pirate in italy. we don't think that's true but we think the sword has value.
>> the sword has value and has a serial number tells us it was german prussian and you could get it back to the soldier should it be lost in battle $300 to $400 even without the scabbard.

Join Steve Caplin for an in-depth discussion in this video Creating the basic texture, part of Digital Painting in Photoshop: Day for Night.
Our image so far works well as a nighttime scene but it's all rather to crisp and dry. We can liven it up by adding some rain easily on a New Layer. So let's go to the top of the layer stack and add a New Layer. I'll call this Rain. I'm going to begin by filling this with a mid-tone gray. We can go to our Swatches panel and choose a gray out of here, to be more accurate we could go to the Color panel, lower the Cyan, magenta and yellow values to zero. And set the black value to 50, and we know that will add an exact 50% mid-gray. To fill our new layer with this color, we use Option delete on a Mac, Alt delete on a PC.
And let's zoom in on this to actual size. We'll need two filters, to make our rain. We'll start with a bit of Gaussian Noise. We can go to Filter > noise > Add Noise. Here we can Choose Gaussian, and that produces a neater pattern. We don't want all this color in it, so we'll set the noise mode to monochromatic. And now we just get gray noise. For the amount, while we want quite strong rain, so let's drag the slider round about 25% gives us a good strong rain effect. And we'll say, OK.
Now to give the rain some sense of it falling, we need to apply a second filter and we'll use Motion blur for that filter, blur and Motion blur. This is going straight down. Let's have it driving in from the right and that's a good angle for our rain. The distance is much too great, however. So we can lower this, and as we drag it down, we get a more of a sleeting effect.
And that's the effect I'm after. So a distance of around about 14 pixels gives us the effect of rain coming in from the right. And let's say OK to that. So that we can see through this, we need to change the mode of this layer. Now because we created this on a gray base, if we change the mode of our layer from normal to hard light, all that gray will disappear and we're left just with the highlights and the shadows, and there's the rain coming in. Let's zoom out.
Well the whole rain effect is really too small. We need to take a section of this and enlarge it. So, let's use the Marquee tool to select, about, slightly less than a quarter of our image. And we can use Free Transform, to scale this. When we look to the corner, see, it goes right up there.
And now, we can drag it down to the bottom right corner of our image so it fills the whole scene and click OK. And let's deselect. If we change the mode of this from Hard Light back to normal, we can see exactly how the layer looks. We've now got much bigger raindrops because we took that small section and enlarged it. Let's put it back to Hard Light again. Well the rain effect isn't bad but it all looks rather to even we need to add more randomness to it and we can do this by adding a Layer Mask to our rain. We can go to Layer, Layer Mask, and reveal all till there is an empty Layer Mask.
Now we could paint on this to hide the rain and we don't want it, but to get more of a random effect, we can apply a filter to it, and we can use the clouds filter to produce our random effect. That's Filter > Render > Clouds. We've applied this clouds filter to the Layer Mask and not to the layer itself. And what that has done is to hide the rain in a random way, and we get a much more patchy rain effect that looks rather more convincing.
We can also paint on this mask using the Brush tool. Let's go for a large, soft-edged brush. By painting in black, we can hide the effect around the lamp, and let's take it down a little bit right in the foreground here, and a little over the figure. Finally, let's make the rain brighter. We'll go back to our main layer and use the Curves adjustment, to brighten up this entire layer. A little brighter and that's the rain effect that we want, and that looks fairly convincing.
The rain effect works well and it was easy to make using just three filters. Because we created it on a Hard Light layer, we were able to hide the grey base and allow just the highlights and the shadows to show through.

- Turning the scene into night

Almost thirty years ago I left a comfortable family business and went to Miami to start a drinking water company. This endeavor was a huge personal struggle, full of financial peril, rejection, and anxiety. I devoted a chapter to this ordeal in my book, “The Start Up Entrepreneur.” Fortunately, after more than a year of work and strain, a wealthy family made me an offer I couldn’t refuse and I sold out to them. For a few months after that I was in the chips.
I returned to Minnesota and with a partner started Investment Rarities. In two years (1975) our money was gone and we were on the ropes. One crisis led to another. At a critical moment my partner buckled. He proclaimed our venture was defunct and tried to leave with one of our few potential assets. We had a falling out. I bought his stock for a small amount. He left me with a load of debt and unpaid bills.
At the moment we stared failure in the face he quit while I persisted. He had no faith in our future while I was sure we would ultimately succeed. Why? I had an enormous advantage over him. I had previously suffered through the despair and pain of near failure in my water business. This had strengthened me. My partner lacked persistence because he had no prior experience with struggle. In his previous enterprise he had made a lot of money without paying much of a price. Things had been easier for him.
The founder of U.S. Steel, Andrew Carnegie, strived for success in business so that he “should never again be called upon to endure such nights and days of racking anxiety.” I have suffered through these severe business droughts and cyclical downturns over the past three decades and one thing stands out. The struggles of life teach the truly valuable lessons. We learn little from good times, and virtually nothing from success. Emerson said it best. “When man [or woman] . . . is pushed, tormented, defeated, he has a chance to learn something; he has been put on his wits, on his manhood, he has gained facts, learns his ignorance, is cured of the insanity of conceit; has got moderation and real skill.”
Now suppose that at the inception of my Miami water business there was a government program for young men that awarded me a large contract. My life would have been so much easier. I would have been an immediate success. At first glance this would have helped me enormously, but in reality it would have crippled me. I would have missed the lessons and struggles that had made me resourceful. Every bout of pain in life makes the next round more likely to be endured.
The government has programs and requirements that give money, or business contracts to women and minorities. These preferences supposedly help the recipient. But they do not. They simply relieve these people from learning the necessary lessons required to climb to the top and succeed on merit.
Those who oppose these government preferences are thought to be mean-spirited or reactionary. The media brands them as chauvinists or racists. In reality, most business owners or managers want a level playing field and would like to see minorities and women reach the upper levels of achievement. Most men in business want all people to experience success and are not in the least threatened by this prospect. But those of us who have struggled time and again know that this can never be accomplished with shortcuts. The government’s subsidy programs will ruin the chances of minorities and women to take their place on the pinnacles of success. If you accept business contracts or money you didn’t earn to speed your success, you undermine your long-term prospects and incur the dead opposite of what the government strives to accomplish. As Emerson instructs us, “Everything has its price – and if that price is not paid, not that thing but something else is obtained … it is impossible to get anything without its price.”
Author Napoleon Hill advises, “The necessity for struggle is one of the clever devices through which nature forces individuals to expand, develop, progress, and become strong through resistance ….. We are forced to recognize that this great universal necessity for struggle must have a definite and useful purpose. That purpose is to force the individual to sharpen his wits, arouse his enthusiasm, build up his spirit of faith, gain definiteness of purpose, develop his power of will, inspire his faculty of imagination to give him new uses for old ideas and concepts …..”
This philosophy is not just about getting ahead in business, it’s also about getting ahead in life. Look at the long-term recipients of entitlements, subsidies and free housing. This unearned money was supposed to lift these people from poverty to a better, more prosperous life. In reality, it locked them into poverty.
If you get a job or promotion because of your race or gender, it is no different than a subsidy. You get something that you didn’t earn, something for nothing. You are weaker for it than if you climbed the ladder by yourself. It may seem like a helping hand, but if it deprives you of skill and inner strength, it is a push backwards. Nothing good ever comes from getting something you didn’t earn.
Now the government and the media encourages those who get entitlements to see themselves as victims. This is just one more horribly negative outcome of subsidies. Once trapped in the belief that you are a victim, you surrender your birthright to compete for the prizes of life. In the mind of the victims and their sponsors, everything controversial that happens in the country becomes just another insult and a plot to keep them from succeeding. Such perceptions inevitably become reality.
It’s not just the underclass that suffers from something for nothing. A corollary exists with the children of wealthy people who shield their offspring from economic struggle. If you are affluent and want to harm your children, give them all the money they will ever need. If you leave them your fortune before they’ve made their own way, they will be weaker for it. Rich or poor, insulate them from life’s struggles and you will fashion people who cannot stand on their own, cannot build, accomplish or create. Herein lies the principal threat to American freedom, prosperity and greatness.

HBO’s “Superfly 2” card already had its main event, with Srisaket Sor Rungvisai set to defend his WBC super flyweight title against Juan Francisco Estrada on February 24, and now the event has a co-feature, too.
In another super flyweight fight (obviously), former titleholder Carlos Cuadras of Mexico will take on Puerto Rico’s McWilliams Arroyo, renewing the storied boxing rivalry between the two nations.
Cuadras (36-2-1, 27 KO) has lost two of three, both on HBO airwaves, but remains a top contender in the division. The 29-year-old is coming off of a defeat at the hands of the aforementioned Estrada on the first “Superfly” card, on September 9, losing by a single point (114-113) on all three cards in what was a terrific back-and-forth scrap.
Arroyo (16-3, 14 KO) is a banger who has also lost two of three. He dropped a decision to Amnat Ruenroeng in September 2014, and then lost to Roman “Chocolatito” Gonzalez on HBO in April 2016. That was his last fight, meaning he’ll be out of action nearly two years by the time he faces Cuadras at the Forum in Inglewood.
“This is exactly what I want, to fight the best fighters in the division on the biggest stages,” Cuadras said via press release. “I love fighting in Los Angeles, and for this fight I’ll be training in Big Bear Lake, California, with my new trainer Abel Sanchez. I can’t be stopped in 2018, and will be a world champion once again.”
“My fight with ‘Chocolatito’ was a great experience,” Arroyo said. “I loved fighting at the Forum with its loud and passionate fans, and history of great fights particularly in the lower weight classes. I can’t wait to get to Los Angeles to face Cuadras.”

Tesla CEO Elon Musk on Sunday revealed new details about the Model Y via Twitter, including confirmation of a debut on March 14 at the company’s design studio in Los Angeles. Invited guests will also get a chance to ride in the small crossover SUV, which is expected to start production in 2020.
Full pricing information will also be revealed at the debut, though Musk on Sunday hinted that the Model Y will cost about 10 percent more than the related Model 3, as the upcoming SUV will be about 10 percent bigger than Tesla’s popular sedan. With the Model 3 starting at $36,200, with shipping, we’re potentially looking at a starting price of about $40,000 for the Model Y.
The bigger size, along with a bigger frontal area than the Model 3, means range of the Model Y will be slightly less than the sleeker, more aerodynamic Model 3 for the same battery size. The entry-level Model 3’s range comes in at 220 miles.
Teaser for Tesla Model Y electric SUV due for reveal in 2019
Another tidbit revealed by Musk on Sunday is that the Model Y will skip the falcon wing-style doors, whose complex design led to delays in production of the Model X which introduced it. Curiously, previous teaser shots show the Model Y without any side mirrors, suggesting it may rely on tiny rear-facing cameras as opposed to bulky, aero-sapping side mirrors. Whether that will become a production reality will depend on regulators, however. Audi’s e-tron electric SUV has ditched side mirrors, though not for the U.S. market.
Musk has previously stated that the Model Y will likely need to be manufactured at a new plant as Tesla’s plant in Fremont, California, is already at capacity with Model S, Model X and Model 3 production. In a shareholder letter released in February, Tesla stated that production of the Model Y will most likely take place at its plant in Nevada. The plant currently builds batteries and Model 3 components. Tesla will also build Model Ys at a plant in China.
Finally, Musk also revealed Sunday that the first of Tesla’s new V3.0 Supercharger stations will open to the public on Wednesday, though no location was mentioned. The V3.0 Supercharger will be faster than the current 145-kilowatt stations, with Musk previously hinting at a peak power rating between 200 and 250 kw.

We adjourn tonight’s meeting in memory of Roderick Travis “Rod” Bennett, a Santa Clarita resident and beloved school teacher.
Mr. Bennett was a math and music teacher at Arroyo Seco Junior High School and was well-loved and well-respected by many students.
Rod studied music at DePaul University, UCLA and London’s Royal College of Music. He went on to perform with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, the UCLA Wind Ensemble, the UCLA Percussion Ensemble and the UCLA Marching Band. He also performed with several groups around the Santa Clarita Valley.
He was a friend and mentor to many and beyond music he loved the outdoors, traveling, gardening and cooking.
Our heartfelt prayers and deepest sympathies are with Arroyo Seco Junior High School staff and students, the bicycle community and the Bennett family during this difficult time.

Welcome to the forum and I am really glad to help you out.
There are 2 important risks to you. Firstly, due to the diabetes, thereâs always a risk of macrosomia (a big sized foetus).
Macrosomia can increase the risk of injuries to the pelvis. Secondly, because of your age, the ligaments of the pelvis instead of being laxed are quite rigid and thus the pelvis canât be relaxed properly and this also interferes in the delivery of the baby.
Yours is a slightly high risk pregnancy and the delivery should be done only under the expert hands. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care.

Yahoo Will Add Support for OpenID
In one of the greatest moves since the Zimbra acquisition, Yahoo announced today that it will provide support for OpenID 2.0 at the end of this month. "Yahoo! (...) announced its support for the OpenID 2.0 digital identity framework for all 248 million active registered Yahoo! users worldwide. OpenID, an open framework based on proven Internet technologies, enables users to consolidate their Internet identity, eliminating the need to create separate IDs and logins at all of the various websites, blogs, and profile pages they may visit in the course of their online session. In addition to the many leading Yahoo! services users already enjoy, anyone with a Yahoo! ID will be able to use the same ID for easy access to any sites that support OpenID 2.0. Yahoo!'s initial OpenID service, which will be available in public beta on January 30, enables a seamless and transparent web experience by allowing users to use their custom OpenID identifier on me.yahoo.com or to simply type in www.yahoo.com or www.flickr.com on any site that supports OpenID 2.0."
From January 30, any Yahoo ID will also become an OpenID that could be used to authenticate on any site that accepts OpenIDs (for example, to post comments on Blogger). Even if many important companies backed this authentication system, very few started to support it and this reduced its usefulness. Yahoo mentions that it will triple the number of OpenIDs to 368 million, although I don't think there's a way to calculate the total number of OpenIDs.
Hopefully this is just a start and many other companies, including Google, will become OpenID providers and will accept OpenIDs.
Blogger implements OpenID

Function and Comfort. Furniture should be practical and user friendly and must be made up of quality materials. Ensure that the home office furniture which you are planning to purchase is accommodating to your work requirements. You must be well aware of the requirements of the people who will be working along with you in the office you wish to furnish. You must have a rough idea about the drawer space and shelf space. This will be helpful in the total set-up and furnishing. Ensure that the furniture you select will be function well in your office. Nowadays because of the cut throat competition and deadlines, long working hours have become a necessity. Sitting in the same chair for hours may cause back problems. Comfort of the home office furniture plays a vital role in keeping you fresh and active throughout your working hours and at the same time helps you in increasing the productivity which in turn, increases your income. Comfortable furniture helps you in keeping yourself fit and healthy by providing you a good sitting posture. A good sitting posture helps in reducing the risk of injuries such as slipped disks, sore neck, shoulders and severe back ache. Functioning and comfort of the furniture are priorities when purchasing furniture. So it is very important that the furniture you purchase should be comfortable and practical. Filing cabinets, bookshelves, pencil drawers, and many additional office accessories are available at the supply stores to help keep your office organized.
Regardless of the type of lifestyle that an individual or household leads, there are a few traits of cardboard furniture that just about everyone can enjoy. For example, one of the best things about incorporating cardboard furniture into the decor of a home is that it allows a home maker to shake things up from time to time by purchasing a new cardboard table or cardboard chair from time to time. Due to the high cost of traditional furniture, people who invest in highly priced wooden furniture typically keep using the same furniture for decades, if not for their entire lives. These bulky items are sometimes even passed down for generations as heirlooms, regardless of whether the heirs actually want the old furniture or not. With cardboard furniture, on the other hand, a person does not have to feel guilty about donating their old cardboard items and picking up some new pieces that will really change the look and feel of a home.
Much of the synthetic and non-organic solid wood furniture release the chemicals they are imbibed with into the air. As time goes by, the harmful preservatives find their way out of the hardwood panels of the furniture and into your lungs. Since organic bedroom furniture contain none of these pesticides and chemicals, you can be assured that the quality of air you breathe inside your bedroom or home will improve. There will be no chemicals that will go to your lungs, poisoning you little by little.
Rattan all weather furnishings are surely the cream of the crop on the subject of furniture for your garden. What other type of garden furniture can say that it is UV resistant? What other sort of outdoor furniture can withstand all weather conditions as rattan outdoor furniture can? What other style of patio and garden furniture can say its anti-rust? Plus, what other material doesnt have to put up with mould as rattan garden furniture doesnt? Rattan furniture is certainly the king of all furniture for your garden. Whilst it may provide all of these amazing qualities, lets not neglect how wonderful it looks too. It really is crammed to the brim with personality and also warm energy. It also looks good in any garden space also because it is extremely versatile. Beauty durability plus unrivalled degrees of quality; how could you complain? Furniture events are not simply sales on furniture at low prices. Such events can be held for a number of reasons. Most are commercial and promotional of course, and many enable local furniture stores to show samples of their products. Many can be designed to promote the work of local craftsmen and women who might otherwise find it difficult to show off their skills to the public. Furniture events such as trade shows are sometimes organized by individual vendors or furniture warehouses to enable those they represent to display some of their new products. They can also be organized by trades associations or even professional event organizers, where exhibitors pay for their space.
Plastic or PVC Patio Furniture. Plastic or PVC patio furniture is the cheapest option and can be easily found at discount/bargain stores. Stackable Plastic or PVC patio furniture can be found at any discount store, sometimes even at the grocery store. They are easy to maintain because all you need to do for cleaning is simply to wipe the dirt off. It stands up well to any natural elements except strong winds and usually will only last for one season. They are not very sturdy and can break easily. There is a high possibility it becomes a safety issue if you have little children using it frequently because it tends to tip over or break. They also tends to crack and splinter very easily, which is dangerous even to adults. If you are looking for some cheap, quick patio furniture then plastic is the best choice but dont expect them to last. Having been a part of e-commerce now for over 10 years. Ive had the wonderful opportunity of speaking with folks all across the country who have been in the market for new furniture over the years. Many of these individuals were seasoned web shoppers with a lot of knowledge about how products are shipped and what to expect at the time of delivery. They had purchased large ticket items before and shopping online came very natural to them. There are also customers I talked with who were making furniture their first online purchase. They had never purchased so much as a CD or DVD online before and were starting out pretty big so to speak. These customers were always very pleased to find what they were looking for but may have been somewhat unprepared or perhaps didnt get a chance to read some of the information online about what to expect at the time of delivery or how the product would be packaged when it arrives. Id like this article to be a guide for consumers who are new to purchasing furniture online and perhaps this will answer some more common questions related to buying furniture online that arent normally addressed when shopping furniture stores online and take the mystery out buying furniture online.
All in all, organically grown, manufactured and assembled furniture in your bedroom will help your bedroom become more comfortable and costlier than before. With the benefits presented, it is surely worth getting organic furniture for your bedroom. Organic furniture brings many facets of benefits to you in one go! You need not sacrifice your health, environmentally friendly ideals and economic needs when choosing furniture. Organic furniture allow. To see beautiful photos of the furniture mentioned in this article, please see Erik Schimeks bedroom furniture website. This website features bed frames, armoires, cedar chests, bedroom dressers, nightstands and organic mattresses. Choosing patio furniture can be a little overwhelming because there are several material types and hundreds or possibly thousands of styles made from those materials. The type of materials that you choose should depend on your personal preference but also on the climate where you live, whether your patio is covered or uncovered, your budget and several other factors.

Chicago's rat problem has spread beyond the city's streets and alleys.
Six cases of Seoul virus, a type of hantavirus that can cause flu-like symptoms and, in severe cases, renal disease, have been linked to two Illinois rat breeders, according to the Illinois Department of Public Health. The two Illinois locations, referred to as ratteries, are also behind two cases of the virus in Wisconsin, where rats from the Illinois breeders were sold.
"Seoul virus is not known to be transmitted from person to person. Therefore, the general public is at extremely low risk," said Nirav Shah, director of the Public Health Department. "Out of an abundance of caution, we want to let the public know in the event they have recently purchased rats from an affected facility and become ill."
Public Health Department officials would not name the two ratteries, saying only that they are located in northwest Illinois and east central Illinois. The ratteries are not selling pets right now and are working with state inspectors, the Wisconsin Department of Health Services and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to identify the source of the outbreak.
Five of the six Illinois cases showed no symptoms of illness.
Symptoms of Seoul virus include fever, headache, back and abdominal pain, chills, blurred vision, redness of the eyes or rash. Only brown or Norway rats carry the virus, and it cannot be transmitted between other animals. Just a few cases of Seoul virus have been reported in the U.S., but severe incidents can lead to acute renal failure.
The virus is transmitted when humans come into contact with infected rat feces or urine that can be on items such as cage bedding.
Health officials stressed common-sense hygiene practices such as washing hands, using gloves and covering cuts when handling rats or their cages. The department also advised not to snuggle or kiss small pets.

Tau Ceti is - even today - CRLs finest hour. It not only sold a lot of copies but changed the image of the company considerably. It was instant credibility. Now we have Academy which is, effectively, Tau Ceti II.
Tau Ceti was all 3D Elite style line graphics, skimming across an alien planet's surface blasting things.
Academy is Tau Ceti massively expanded and improved. Instead of one single plot, the game has dozens of separate missions loaded in groups of four. You not only select a mission but also the equipment with which to tackle it - deciding according to what features will be necessary to cope with the planetary conditions and whatever obstacles could be involved.
This time you can build your own skimmer. How you construct it changes the gameplay. It affects the entire screen layout - information displays, position of cockpit 'window' on the outside world etc. It also effects in a noticeable way the handling characteristics of the ship.
Selection of missions and skimmer design are all accomplished by menu. Mission information includes a nifty picture of the planet involved and technical read- outs indicating the task ahead of you and giving practical advice.
Some missions are very specific - one in the first section requires you to shut down a reactor. Other missions are obvious. The one called 'If it Moves' requires nothing more than the complete destruction of everything that isn't you (more or less). You win when you amass an over 90 per cent score - that's a lot of killing. It provides a nice brutally violent first mission to get you going.
Different planets actually look different. 'If it Moves' features a planet with continuous lightening storms flashing across the sky. Other planets have giant suns filling the horizon or other unique touches.
The basic look of the game is similar to Tau Ceti. The same ultra-smooth movement, the same shaded geometric shapes representing buildings and enemy craft presented with one of the most convincing 3D routines I've seen on the Spectrum.
It isn't all shooting - there are places to dock to restore energy levels, make repairs and get new equipment. As with Tau Ceti, you dock just by flying towards a suitable building and lining up with a rectangular hatch. In some missions there are buildings which have to be entered without permission - this involved code breaking.
Flight controls are joystick plus keyboard for height and the launching of missiles, AMMS (anti missile missiles for when somebody else launches something at you) and flares to light the sky. On some planets a Jump command is also available. If you find a jump pad it works as an 'instant transport over large distances - which is really useful.
Academy is utterly astonishing. Not the least astonishing thing is how Pete Cooke has crammed so much into 48K it's Tau Ceti writ large, as though someone had hacked into that game, stolen the movement and graphics routines and some of the plot and added around 200K's worth of extra material, except that somehow it still runs on a normal Spectrum.
It passed the 'everybody in the office stops work to look' test which is always a good sign.
I don't see how, with a whole tapeful of extra missions (20 in all) you could exhaust even half the game by Christmas.
Buy it, buy it, buy it.
Author: Pete Cooke
Reviewer: Graham Taylor
If you liked Tau Ceti, Academy will leave you awestruck. One of the best 3D games on the Spectrum ever.
