FISHER OWNERS GROUP OF NORTH AMERICA
is for sale!
I have decided to sell our 1975, 25 Foot Fisher Motor sailor, COOT. I am asking $35,000. It is in the water at the marina in Des Moines Washington. I spent 5 years on the hard in Costa Mesa, California rebuilding it - new wires, windows, cushions, varnish, caprail, Yanmar engine, paint, hardware, etc. and then moved it to Des Moines where completed it with new tanbark sails, rigging, electronics, and a diesel stove/heater. It is lacking a head and fresh water plumbing. Family obligations have forced a move to Montana 7 years ago and the boat has been sitting in the water, with semi-annual maintenance done by CSR marine. I have a thumbdrive with extensive pictures of the rebuild and can arrange a dock visit if you are interested in seeing her in person. Lots of work done on her but still a few projects left to revive her after 7 years of neglect! Please email me at firstname.lastname@example.org for more information. Thanks for your consideration.October 28, 2019
"It never rains in Southern California"[Editor's comment]
March 10, 2003Kristi and I were owners of a Pacific Seacraft 27' Orion, (a great boat), but
a planned move to Alaska (Whittier) started a search for a more cold-friendly
boat. Through some odd happenstance, a Pacific Seacraft owner in Dana Point,
had just purchased a Fisher 34 and it was love at first site when we saw it.
After an internet search we finally arrived at the FOG archives and this 25'
was listed from a year ago. A quick call to the owner and we found out it was
still for sell. It was located in Florida and I bought it sight-unseen,
mainly because the seller was very honest with me about the condition of the
boat (poor) - and being a hot-rodder in my previous life, I did not mind
takling a project.
Coot arrived in Dana Point on Dec 23, 2002 and I have
started a complete re-make. The main problem was that the fitting to hull
bonding was leaking in various places and that water had seeped in behind the
vinyl through-out the cockpit. I have ripped all of the vinyl out and am also
in the process of removing the cap-rail for a complete re-do of this - the
stanchions, cleats, etc. We are thinking of ditching the head (just using a
bucket) and turning this space into either a hanging locker, or extending the
front berth back. I also got rid of the propane and plan to put in a diesel
heater/stove. Fresh water is next on the list of thoughts as is a new diesel.
If anyone out there really wants 2 original Volvos MD2Bs - the one in the
boat, and one "new" spare let me know. The second one would be great for a
restoration project. I haven't decided on Universal/Volvo/Yanmar or Saab yet
for the replacement.
Coot is going up on the hard this month in Newport Beach for various re-fittings.
I will keep you updated as I pass different milestones, and hope to make it up north
on our way to Alaska, by next summer. By the way - the picture here is the only
day it rained for the past 2 years in Dana Point. The yard almost cancelled the haul
because of "bad-weather".
All the best and if anyone is ever down in the LA/San Diego
area, drop me a line.

Fan Jingzhong's new book "Art and Civilization" is published
A few days ago, the new book "Art and Civilization" by Professor Fan Jingzhong of our school was published.
"Art and Civilization" is the accumulation of decades of academic thinking by Professor Fan Jingzhong. With a broad cultural vision, he conducts multiple observations on the development of Western art. He not only outlines the historical evolution of Western art from its origin, growth, and transformation in depth and detail but also fascinatingly combs the internal and external context of the development of Western art. The intricate and complex relationship between social influences includes both a macroscopic overall grasp and detailed interpretation of specific details, which are vast and subtle.
The "Art and Civilization" series focuses on Western art and Western civilization. By combing through the 20,000-year history of Western art, it directly hits the scene of civilization behind the artwork. The book traces back to the origin of art, from primitive art downstream, passing through ancient Greek, ancient Roman art, and Gothic architecture, interspersed with an interesting history of Chinese and Western manuscripts, and finally to the new one represented by Giotto. The era opened the prelude to the Renaissance. "Art and Civilization: Lectures on the History of Western Art (Original Art-Medieval Art)" consists of forty lectures, each focusing on a work of art or an artist. In order of time, with "art as the spokesperson of civilization" as the core point of view, the discussion focuses on two aspects of "art knowledge" and "eyesight". The content not only focuses on traditional categories such as architecture, statues, and paintings but also music and books. The extension of broad fields such as culture, philosophy, etc., is interspersed with Chinese art from time to time for comparison.

At E3, Square-Enix took the stage to show off quite a bit of its long-awaited Final Fantasy VII Remake. After fans clamored for the remake of the classic PlayStation game for years on end, Square-Enix finally announced the title at E3 2015, and now they’ve got quite a bit to show. The game will be episodic with the first installment (spread over two Blu-rays!) taking place solely in Midgar while also expanding and redoing some aspects of the narrative. This is a remake in the true sense of the word, not just an HD upgrade to the PlayStation game.
At this year’s E3, Square-Enix explained how the combat will work and how it’s a mix of action and active-time elements, so that you’re hacking and slashing in real-time, but you can use your ATB meter to pause the flow of the gameplay and decide on your next move. Square-Enix also showed off a new trailer, and it gave me a giddy thriller to travel back to one of my all-time favorite video games now with HD graphics.
There are still a lot of questions about how the whole game will be tweaked and upgraded. Will you still have different limit breaks? Are the basic RPG elements in place in terms of new weapons and armor? If you don’t change weapons, how does the Materia system work? Final Fantasy VII is more than just a great story filled with interesting characters. It’s also got terrific gameplay that goes far beyond just combat.
Assuming the game holds to its release date, there will presumably be more answers in the days, weeks, and months ahead. For the time being, it’s great to see such a long-awaited title so tantalizing close. And if you’ve never played the original Final Fantasy VII, you should definitely pick it up on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, or Switch.
Check out the Final Fantasy VII Remake demo and trailer below. The game arrives on PlayStation 4 on March 3, 2020.

Philadelphia Phillies and MLB 2020 season days lost to the COVID-19 pandemic: 9.
NOTE: If viewing our stories on your mobile device, switch to “Hide Reader View” in order to get the full experience which usually includes pictures, video content, and key social media posts.
Photographers from The Inquirer have been scouring the city of Philadelphia during the coronavirus pandemic, providing a look at how the pandemic is affecting some of the areas most iconic sites.
At 2:00 p.m. EDT on Friday, April 3 the governor of Pennsylvania, Tom Wolf, will provide a live update of efforts to mitigate the health crisis here in the Commonwealth. You can watch at this link: “4/3: Governor Wolf live stream“.
The Sheetz convenience store chain has launched a free meals program for kids at dozens of stores across six states including Pennsylvania. Children can receive a free turkey sandwich, chips, and a drink. Per Michael Tanenbaum at The Voice, Sheetz CEO Travis Sheetz stated: “It is our hope Sheetz’s Kidz Meal Bagz program will make a small difference and provide nourishment to those in need during these uncertain times.”
The Pennsylvania 2020 election primary has been moved to June 2 due to the pandemic, with May 18 now the last day to register to vote and May 26 to apply for mail-in or absentee ballots.
The mayor has announced that Philadelphia trash and recycling pick-ups are running about a day behind their usual schedules due to sanitation workers calling out sick. Philly residents should continue to put trash out as usual on their normal day and it will be collected as soon as possible.
Stay updated on the pandemic here in the Philadelphia area via The Inquirer coronavirus live news ticker on the subject. Also, be sure to to understand the City of Philadelphia Business Activity and Stay at Home Order. The CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) and the NIH (National Institutes of Health have tremendous resources as well.
Jayson Stark at The Athletic reports on how MLB and the NCAA’s response to the COVID19 pandemic has caused havoc for college programs and players: “College baseball,” says one agent, sadly, “is screwed.”
Former Phillies 1982 starting pitcher and current San Francisco Giants broadcaster Mike Krukow posted this fantastic video greeting regarding the game’s delay and the health crisis. While it was directed specifically at Giants fans, I think we can all appreciate and enjoy his message:
Now for the latest Philadelphia Phillies news from local and national resources:
Jim Salisbury at NBC Sports Philadelphia wrote on what MLB teams including the Phillies are telling their employees during these uncertain times: “Phillies general manager Matt Klentak on Thursday was asked about the potential for layoffs or salary cuts within the organization.”
“That’s a situation that is not unique to baseball, unfortunately,” Klentak said per Salisbury. “A lot of decisions will be made above my pay grade, obviously. For all of us, we are hopeful that we’ll resume and not have to take measures like that. We trust that the Phillies are owned and run by very good people — and have been for a long time. Everybody is trying to do the best thing right now.”
“The 25-year-old right-hander reported feeling soreness on March 9, the day after he pitched a scoreless inning during a Grapefruit League game. Phillies doctors evaluated him. Their initial evaluation included the possibility of Tommy John surgery. Domínguez was preparing to get a second opinion on his arm — the same issue that forced him to miss the final four months of the season because of a UCL injury — when the remainder of spring training was canceled on March 12 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.”
Phillies superstar outfielder Bryce Harper and wife Kayla have announced a half-million dollar donation to help charities here in Philadelphia and in their native Las Vegas, Nevada during the health crisis:
Frank Fitzpatrick at The Inquirer took a look back at 1995 spring training when baseball was still in the throes of the strike and the Phillies began the Grapefruit League season with replacement players:
“If baseball historians ever chronicle the bizarre spring of 1995, among the artifacts they ought to examine is a box score from the Phillies’ 7-5 loss to Pittsburgh on March 5. That Sunday afternoon in Bradenton, Fla., manager Jim Fregosi used five pitchers. His starter was a rock guitarist who hadn’t pitched anywhere in four years. The four who followed were the son of a Philadelphia sportswriter, a Texan who raised ostriches, the recent MVP of a Delco softball league, and a Western Pennsylvania aluminum worker who, until February, had been coaching in Italy.“
Tom Housenick at The Morning Call wrote on former Phillies minor leaguer Matt McBride decision to retire. The 34-year-old McBride, a Bethlehem native, reached the big-leagues and appeared in 92 games with the Colorado Rockies and Oakland Athletics:
“I still want to stay connected in baseball even if it is not professionally,” McBride said per Housenick. “Helping coach younger kids, kids in high school, I still really enjoy that.”
Many players are trying to stay in shape using various home routines. It’s easier for some, who may have extensive home gym equipment and large outside areas to work out. However, others, especially many in the minor league system, have fewer options. Here, Phillies lefty pitching prospect Jeff Singer demos one of his home workout routines:
Former Phillies player and general manager Ruben Amaro Jr has joined the Twitterverse @RAJr_20 over the last few days and has taken to the social media platform like a fish to water. Here he sends out thanks to former teammate John Kruk:
On Monday afternoon, I appeared as a guest on the “Phillies Talk” podcast hosted by Rich Baxter in which we talked about the numerous effects that the coronavirus pandemic has had on baseball and society. It was a wide-ranging discussion that I think you would enjoy.
You can view the archives for these Lunch Bell reports at any time. They are released every day all year-round barring some unusual circumstance. Each report highlights important updates on the Phillies and MLB, including articles curated from around the web, social media posts, and video. During the pandemic we will include any relevant updates in that regard as well.

Boilers form the beating heart of your homes hot water and central heating systems; they essentially ensure that your radiators and / or domestic hot water supply are kept heated based on a variety of settings that you have all or some control of. The type of control, and how the system works, will differ depending on the type of boiler that you have.
At Howarth Timber & Building Supplies we offer three different types of Boiler:
Also known as Regular Boilers, Conventional Boilers or Open Vented Boilers, Heat Only Boilers were once the most commonly used Boiler in the UK. That means that if your boiler needs replacing, because it is getting old, it is highly likely that you will have this type of boiler.
Heat Only is suitable for large families or homes with three or more bathrooms, as it allows more than one hot water outlet to run at a single time, without any interference that is common with other types of boiler.
Combination Boilers get their name from the fact that it acts as both a water heater and a central heating boiler. However, a Combi Boiler does not physically store any water; instead it heats up water directly from the cold mains as-and-when you need it. This means that a hot water cylinder is not required.
Combi Boilers are suitable for homes that have limited space, and that have less than three bathrooms. They are a popular choice because they give your home hot water on a supply-and-demand basis.
System Boilers are virtually the same – in theory – to Heat Only Boilers in the sense that they both work on the method of heating up water that is stored in a Hot Water Cylinder. However, they differ in the fact that whilst Heat Only Boilers have a separate expansion cistern and pump, a System Boiler has both of these components built-in.
System Boilers are used with a pressurised unvented hot water cylinder, meaning that a loft-based cold-water storage cistern is not needed as the water is fed from the mains supply.


La Crosse County may move emergency management position to Sheriff’s Office
When disaster strikes, dispatchers are the first to know.
And for decades La Crosse County has had the same people in charge of its emergency response.
“These two public servants have given us decades of public service to this community,” said La Crosse County Board Chair Tara Johnson.
This year both Emergency Services Administrator Jay Loeffler and Emergency Management Coordinator Keith Butler announced their retirement.
The county board is moving forward with moving Butler’s position of helping coordinate how a county plans and reacts to emergencies from the dispatch center to the sheriff’s department.
“The 9-1-1 dispatch center, Jay Loeffler and his department are pretty thin on support staff and clerks,” added Johnson.
“Keith’s on his own. Having the sheriff’s department have more personnel available to help him, that’s a good thing,” explained Loeffler.
In addition to more help, the county hopes that moving Butler’s position will allow whoever fills Loeffler’s shoes to focus more on new technology coming to the center.
“We’re going into a next generation of 9-1-1 that would allow people to start texting and send videos,” said Loeffler.
“The new Jay Loeffler will be able to concentrate on making sure those transitions are smooth,” added Johnson.
The county hopes the move to the sheriff’s department will make it easier for the new hires, but knows it’s going to be hard to say good bye.
“We are losing a tremendous amount of knowledge, professionalism,” expressed Johnson.

Pete Seeger is gone. I first met him at Buck’s Rock Work Camp when I was 14. He was standing on the big cement porch, surrounded by kids. After hearing him, nothing was the same. He was my lifelong hero. I had few others. I wasn’t alone -- many of you first heard Pete at camp or school. That’s how he made his living during the time he was blacklisted.
President Barack Obama is paying tribute to Pete Seeger for reminding us where we come from and showing us where we need to go.
Seeger, the veteran folk singer, died Monday night at age 94. The writer of "If I Had a Hammer" and "Turn, Turn, Turn," he welded his music to activism on issues of American workers and the disadvantaged.
It’s a day of mixed emotions today as we remember the iconic Pete Seeger. The sadness of his passing last night at the age of 94 is eased by the celebration of his long and impactful life. Today we want to talk about our friend Pete.
His music catalog and social activism spanned six decades, but now a major folk voice has been silenced. Beacon resident Pete Seeger died Monday night in New York City after being hospitalized for six days.
As a teenager in 1936, Seeger joined the Young Communist League. An early recording features Seeger on "c" for Conscription, a track that appeared on Songs for John Doe, the 1941 debut album of the Almanac Singers, an influential early folk music group.
Pete Seeger’s musical legacy touched many lives, including those of many folk singers across the region. North Country Bureau Chief Pat Bradley spoke with a few this morning about his influence on their music.
Originally published on Tue January 28, 2014 9:35 am
Much will be said and has been said about Pete Seeger, who died Monday at 94, as an activist and musician. Blacklisted, tireless, stubborn, and funny, he wrote a lot of songs that seem to have simply always existed: "Where Have All The Flowers Gone?", "If I Had A Hammer," "Turn, Turn, Turn."

Leaker Reveals Details of iPhone 13, Apple Watch Series 7, AirPods 3
Just ahead of Apple’s ‘California Streaming’ special event next week, where the company is expected to unveil its new ‘iPhone 13’ flagship smartphone lineup, as well as the Apple Watch Series 7 and AirPods 3, leaker Max Weinbach has shared some interesting new details in a series of Tweets.
Contrary to recent reports, Weinbach says a price hike across the ‘iPhone 13’ lineup will not be happening. The overall device weight and thickness will however increase compared to last year’s models. “This will be especially noticeable on the Pro Max variant, as you’d expect,” he notes.
The Pro Max variant will continue to be “the true flagship smartphone from Apple,” differentiating itself from the standard Pro model,” Weinbach adds. “We expect the iPhone mini variant to offer an additional ~1 hour of battery life.”
Other tidbits shared by the leaker include the following:
- The Pro Max models will see a 18-20% larger battery, compared to last years model.
- Both 6.1″ iPhones will again use the same battery component, while an increase in capacity of around 10% can be expected. Although the Pro might perform slightly worse due to the presence of 120hz
- The Displays on the Pro Series will throttle to a 60hz refresh rate when Low Power Mode is enabled. This cannot be changed.
- All sensors across the board now receive at least 15% more light, while the Ultra Wide sees the biggest change with up to 40% more light.
- Portrait “Cinematic” Video employs our previously leaked EIS system known as “Warp”.
- Cinematic Video will also attempt to keep a subject close to the center of the frame, while also ensuring that it does not come off as unnatural.
AirPods 3 case should receive around ~20% larger battery, compared to the 2nd Gen. Wireless Charging is a standard feature.
- Apple Watch Series 7 is bound to see its first real battery life improvement since the original Apple Watch.
Apple will live stream the special event next week at 10am PDT/1pm EDT.


Drivers from I-66 East will use the new ramp and traffic signal to reach Route 123 North
Drivers exiting from I-66 East to Route 123 (Chain Bridge Road) North toward Oakton will use a new ramp and traffic signal beginning on or about Friday night, Feb. 21.
Traffic heading to Route 123 North will use the current exit from I-66 East to Route 123 South, then stay to the left to use two signal-controlled turn lanes to turn left onto northbound Route 123. Traffic on I-66 East heading to Route 123 South will stay to the right using the existing exit ramp.
Implementing the traffic shift will require lane closures and stoppages on Friday night, Feb. 21. A single lane on Route 123 North and South will be closed between 10 p.m. and 8 a.m. The ramp from I-66 East to Route 123 will be closed between midnight and 5 a.m. Traffic will be detoured farther east to Route 243 (Nutley Street) North, stay to the right for I-66 West, then follow signs to Route 123 North or South.
The old loop ramp from I-66 East to Route 123 North will be demolished to allow construction of Express Lanes ramps and a shared-use path at the redesigned Route 123 Interchange as part of the Transform 66 Outside the Beltway Project. Drivers should be alert for changing traffic patterns and the new traffic signal. Drivers are reminded to slow down and pay attention as construction-related detours and traffic pattern changes will continue through 2022 when the new Express Lanes open.
Learn more about the I-66 Outside the Beltway Project and sign up for project updates and lane closure alerts at Transform66.org.
COVID-19 meeting restrictions lead to 2nd EDA grand jury extension
Contacted by phone, Rockingham County Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney Michael Parker confirmed that Judge Clark Ritchie had extended the term of the Warren County Special Grand Jury impaneled to explore potential criminality tied to the Front Royal-Warren County Economic Development Authority (EDA) civil litigation.
That extension is for six months and came as the grand jury’s first extension was coming to an end Tuesday, March 31. The EDA special grand jury was empaneled shortly after the EDA civil litigation was filed on March 26, 2019. Its first six-month term was extended another six months in October 2019.
Parker said the newest six-month extension comes from an “abundance of caution” both legally and medically.
Due to restrictions on public gatherings ordered by Governor Ralph Northam as part of the Commonwealth of Virginia’s emergency management response to the COVID-19 Coronavirus pandemic, what have been described as non-essential court functions have joined other enterprises deemed “non-essential” in the private sector in being put on hold at least through much of April. Consequently, it was decided it was unsafe for the grand jury to continue meeting in this pandemic emergency response environment.
In this fluid medical and legal environment, it is uncertain when the EDA Special Grand Jury will be able to meet again. However, Parker said he believes once those meetings begin, it will not take anywhere near six months for the grand jury to complete its business.
“Our goal is to conclude as soon as possible,” Parker said.
Following the recusal from EDA legal matters of Warren County Commonwealth’s Attorney John Bell and his entire staff in the wake of his November 2019 election, Parker was appointed to handle criminal indictments stemming from alleged EDA financial improprieties discovered by a forensic audit commissioned by Warren County on behalf of the EDA in September 2018.
The EDA civil litigation is now seeking recovery of $21.3 million from 15 defendants, including former EDA Executive Director Jennifer McDonald and two real estate companies she is alleged to have used to misdirect EDA assets to her own benefit.
In a series of filings by the EDA grand jury, McDonald now faces a total of 34 financial felony charges. Also indicted criminally on fewer charges has been a tight circle around McDonald, including her husband Samuel North, her former EDA Administrative Assistant Michelle “Missy” Henry, and former EDA small business loan recipient and B&G Goods proprietor William Lambert. At the time of his business relationship with the EDA Lambert is purported to have been in a relationship with a McDonald sister.
Criminal charges against another McDonald associate, Donald Poe, were dropped by Parker due to an approaching January perjury trial date he was not prepared for with his late 2019 appointment and the mountain of paperwork filed in relation to the EDA civil and criminal cases – estimated at or around a million pages of documentation.
However, as he noted at the time, Parker can refile the criminal indictments against Poe if he feels the evidence so warrants. Poe’s perjury charges related to his testimony to the EDA Special Grand Jury regarding his business ties to McDonald.
The next EDA criminal case hearing dates are scheduled for April 17. Parker said he should have more information on how things will be proceeding forward within the coming week.
A federal grand jury has also been impaneled in Harrisonburg related to the EDA financial allegations and civil litigation. On April 16, 2019, agents from the FBI and Virginia State Police searched and seized documents and materials from the EDA’s Kendrick Lane offices, including the executive director’s office that had been cordoned off and locked down since McDonald’s December 20, 2018 resignation under increasing scrutiny by the investigative auditing firm Cherry Bekaert and her EDA Board of Directors. However, the federal grand jury has yet to issue any indictments from its investigation.
FDA requests removal of all Ranitidine products (Zantac) from the market
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced (April 1, 2020) it is requesting manufacturers to withdraw all prescription and over-the-counter (OTC) ranitidine drugs from the market immediately. This is the latest step in an ongoing investigation of a contaminant known as N-Nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) in ranitidine medications (commonly known by the brand name Zantac). The agency has determined that the impurity in some ranitidine products increases over time and when stored at higher than room temperatures and may result in consumer exposure to unacceptable levels of this impurity. As a result of this immediate market withdrawal request, ranitidine products will not be available for new or existing prescriptions or OTC use in the U.S.
“The FDA is committed to ensuring that the medicines Americans take are safe and effective. We make every effort to investigate potential health risks and provide our recommendations to the public based on the best available science. We didn’t observe unacceptable levels of NDMA in many of the samples that we tested. However, since we don’t know how or for how long the product might have been stored, we decided that it should not be available to consumers and patients unless its quality can be assured,” said Janet Woodcock, M.D., director of the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. “The FDA will continue our efforts to ensure impurities in other drugs do not exceed acceptable limits so that patients can continue taking medicines without concern.”
NDMA is a probable human carcinogen (a substance that could cause cancer). In the summer of 2019, the FDA became aware of independent laboratory testing that found NDMA in ranitidine. Low levels of NDMA are commonly ingested in the diet, for example, NDMA is present in foods and in water. These low levels would not be expected to lead to an increase in the risk of cancer. However, sustained higher levels of exposure may increase the risk of cancer in humans. The FDA conducted thorough laboratory tests and found NDMA in ranitidine at low levels. At the time, the agency did not have enough scientific evidence to recommend whether individuals should continue or stop taking ranitidine medicines, and continued its investigation and warned the public in September 2019 of the potential risks and to consider alternative OTC and prescription treatments.
New FDA testing and evaluation prompted by information from third-party laboratories confirmed that NDMA levels increase in ranitidine even under normal storage conditions, and NDMA has been found to increase significantly in samples stored at higher temperatures, including temperatures the product may be exposed to during distribution and handling by consumers. The testing also showed that the older a ranitidine product is, or the longer the length of time since it was manufactured, the greater the level of NDMA. These conditions may raise the level of NDMA in the ranitidine product above the acceptable daily intake limit.
With today’s announcement, the FDA is sending letters to all manufacturers of ranitidine requesting they withdraw their products from the market. The FDA is also advising consumers taking OTC ranitidine to stop taking any tablets or liquid they currently have, dispose of them properly and not buy more; for those who wish to continue treating their condition, they should consider using other approved OTC products. Patients taking prescription ranitidine should speak with their health care professional about other treatment options before stopping the medicine, as there are multiple drugs approved for the same or similar uses as ranitidine that do not carry the same risks from NDMA. To date, the FDA’s testing has not found NDMA in famotidine (Pepcid), cimetidine (Tagamet), esomeprazole (Nexium), lansoprazole (Prevacid) or omeprazole (Prilosec).
In light of the current COVID-19 pandemic, the FDA recommends patients and consumers not take their medicines to a drug take-back location but follow the specific disposal instructions in the medication guide or package insert or follow the agency’s recommended steps, which include ways to safely dispose of these medications at home.
The FDA continues its ongoing review, surveillance, compliance, and pharmaceutical quality efforts across every product area, and will continue to work with drug manufacturers to ensure safe, effective and high-quality drugs for the American public.
The FDA encourages health care professionals and patients to report adverse reactions or quality problems with any human drugs to the agency’s MedWatch Adverse Event Reporting program:
Complete and submit the report online at www.fda.gov/medwatch/report.htm; or
Download and complete the form, then submit it via fax at 1-800-FDA-0178.
The FDA, an agency within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, protects the public health by assuring the safety, effectiveness, and security of human and veterinary drugs, vaccines and other biological products for human use, and medical devices. The agency also is responsible for the safety and security of our nation’s food supply, cosmetics, dietary supplements, products that give off electronic radiation, and for regulating tobacco products.

Social Security benefits will be paid on time and other updates related to the COVID-19 pandemic
Andrew Saul, Commissioner of Social Security, reminds the public that Social Security and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefit payments will continue to be paid on time during the COVID-19 pandemic. The agency also reminds everyone to be aware of scammers who try to take advantage of the pandemic to trick people into providing personal information or payment via retail gift cards, wire transfers, internet currency, or by mailing cash, to maintain Social Security benefit payments or receive economic impact payments from the Department of the Treasury.
“Social Security will pay monthly benefits on time and these payments will not be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic,” Commissioner Saul said. “I want our beneficiaries to be aware that scammers may try to trick you into thinking the pandemic is stopping or somehow changing your Social Security payments, but that is not true. Don’t be fooled.”
The Department of the Treasury will soon provide information about economic impact payments under the recently enacted law, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, or CARES Act. Treasury, not Social Security, will be making direct payments to eligible people. Please do not call Social Security about these payments as the agency does not have information to share.
The agency continues to direct the public to its online self-service options whenever possible. Local offices are closed to the public but are available by phone. People can find their local field office phone number by accessing the Field Office Locator.
To allow available agents to provide better phone coverage, the agency is temporarily changing the National 800 Number hours starting on Tuesday, March 31, 2020. The hours will change from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. local time to 8:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. local time.

Please visit the agency’s COVID-19 web page at www.socialsecurity.gov/coronavirus/ for important information and updates.
Governor Northam COVID-19 update briefing – April 3, 2020
Important updates from Congressman Ben Cline – April 3, 2020
Since last week’s passage of H.R. 748, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, federal agencies have issued guidelines for how this bill will be implemented. This important bill will utilize new resources to fight on the front lines of the coronavirus pandemic in America and will inject funding into the economy to help American workers, families, small businesses, and industries so that our country can not only survive this crisis but thrive when we do.
Day by day, more details continue to be made available about both the Paycheck Protection Program for small businesses and the Economic Impact Payments available to individuals, which are provisions of the CARES Act designed to provide key relief to the American people in the wake of the spread of the coronavirus. For an overview of action the U.S. Department of the Treasury has taken since the bill’s passage, please visit treasury.gov/cares.
The Supply Chain Stabilization Task Force, which is being run by FEMA and focused on meeting the demand for critical medical resources and supplies, published a fact sheet detailing its four-pronged approach to address issues related to critical protective and life-saving equipment: Preservation, Acceleration, Expansion, and Allocation.
To learn more about the Economic Impact Payments available to individuals through the CARES Act, please visit irs.gov. There, you will find information about who is eligible to receive payments and whether you need to take any action in order to receive the payments, among other helpful information. The IRS has said it will begin distributing the checks in the next three weeks.
For business owners struggling to keep their doors open and their employees’ taken care of during this difficult time, the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) has two loan programs. First, the recently passed CARES Act created the Paycheck Protection Program, an initiative that provides 100% federally guaranteed loans to help small businesses through the COVID-19 crisis.
Secondly, the SBA has now approved Virginia for its Economic Injury Disaster Program. The SBA will work directly with state governors to provide targeted, low-interest loans to small businesses and non-profits that have been severely impacted. Please visit sba.gov/coronavirus for more information on the two loan programs.
This week, the President announced that the CDC’s nationwide guidance to slow the spread of the virus, which was published 15 days ago, will be extended until at least April 30th. As Dr. Fauci said, “The reason why we feel so strongly about the necessity of the additional 30 days is that now is the time, whenever you’re having an effect, not to take your foot off the accelerator.”
Additionally, during one of this week’s briefings, Dr. Fauci said that vaccine trials are, “right on target for the year to year and a half.” On the subject of treating the virus, Dr. Birx announced that a coronavirus antibody test could be available within this month. Such a test could help identify those who have had the virus and recovered.
As of March 30, the U.S. Navy’s gigantic floating hospital ship, the USNS Comfort, arrived in New York City where it has been sent to help relieve the pressure on the city’s hospitals that are overwhelmed with coronavirus patients. The Comfort’s 1,000 beds and 12 operating rooms will largely be used for non-coronavirus patients, freeing up much-needed space at the city’s overtaxed hospitals. Likewise, the USNS Mercy sits on the shores of Los Angeles.

Third-quarter operational data from OOCL is the first hard evidence of huge profits made by ocean carriers during the period, which could oblige those that are stock market-listed to again upgrade their full-year outlook.
The Cosco subsidiary’s revenue soared 125% on Q2 20, to $4.3bn, despite a 7.2% decrease in its liftings, to 1,810,142 teu.
However, perhaps more impressively, compared with the previous quarter, OOCL’s revenue jumped by 25%, for an average …

The Sewage Treatment Plant Project is which utilises its membrane process for producing water suitable for re-use, which can be intended to provide low-cost cleanliness and ecological defence while providing extra profits from the recycling of water. We use the MBR technology for sewage treatment plant project, which is made of complex tissue hollow fibre, which has greater inoxidability. It has very strong erosion resilient constancy against numerous chemicals such as alkali, strong acid and oxidizer etc. The sludge concentration of MBR system wastewater treatment is high, which is numerous times of that in customary active sludge process, and its impact-resistant load ability is good. The product water quality is good can be re-used directly, it has low sludge production and lessen the expenditure of sludge removal.
The Sewage Treatment Plant Project uses aerobic biological treatment methods that require fewer chemicals compared to conventional technologies. It also meets the stringent purification standards. The plant uses non-conventional bacteria that consume wastewater and produce compact granules. The special microorganisms used in the treatment system do not develop in floc structures as in conventional methods, but form concentrated, compact granules.
Design parameter for typical sewage treatment:
Note: effluent quality satisfy Chinese national standards GB/T 18920-2002 and Class 1-A of GB/T
The MBR technology and its benefits：
It has a number of advantages over other wastewater technologies. MBRs delivers high-quality sewage, better biotreatment and have a small footmark.
Uncoupling hydraulic retention time (HRT) and solid retention time (SRT):
An important benefit of the MBR procedure is that the organic solids are totally reserved in the bioreactor. This means that the SRT in the bioreactor can be measured self-sufficiently from the HRT. This is unlike the CAS procedure where the flocculent entities that create the biomass have to be permitted to produce in the extent to the level where they can be established in the subordinate clarifier.
The small hole size of the membrane means that the cured sewage is of very extraordinary clearness and meaningfully abridged pathogen absorption as associated to the CAS process.
Membrane bioreactor procedures deliver a considerably elucidated and clean sewage of extraordinary enough value to be cleared to subtle delivery bodies or to be domesticated for claims such as urban rinsing, efficacies or toilet reddening. It is also of superior for nourishing right away to a reverse osmosis process. <br/>

Being Aussie, it’s not a holiday I grew up with, but I like the idea of celebrating how much we have to be thankful for – it’s okay, I’m not going to start a list 😉 but I do want to say that you all make writing a lot less of an alone-in-an-attic activity than it traditionally was. Thank you for your comments and support!
November Roundup of SciFi Books
Since starting the Facebook page, Always Another Great Book, to help people find great books in Kindle Unlimited, I’ve been reading a lot more science fiction.

Wandering Around the Net
I am a gold star procrastinator, and sometimes I call it research! I thought I’d share some of my discoveries with you.
Urban Fantasy’s Unique Female Hero (I’ve actually read a lot of urban fantasy with male leads, but the feminist analysis remains interesting).
The Piri Reis Map (I love way-out theories and mysterious objects and places).
And finally, because in writing The Ceph Sector I’m obsessed with all things octopus) the story of an octopus’s gratitude.
My Christmas novella, Jingle Stars, is out next Monday. When I originally thought of writing a Christmas novella with Ahab, the artificial intelligence from the Orion starship, as the hero, I imagined it would be light and funny. Instead, as I wrote, the story grew quite surprisingly tough. I channelled something of Charles Dickens into a space opera: the idea of street children (or in this case, space station junkyard kids) having no one to help them, but being there for one another. I guess, as Dickens knew, the reward of a happy ending is that sweeter when you’ve endured the characters’ struggles with them.

The New Geography of Jobs
A rising young economist at Berkeley argues that where you live will soon determine how successful you are—and tells us what that means for the country.
As the global economy shifted from agriculture to manufacturing to innovation, the world was supposed to become more flat. Geography was supposed to matter less. But the pundits were wrong. A new map is being drawn and it's not about red vs. blue or rich vs. poor. The rise of the hubs is causing huge geographic disparities in education, wealth, life expectancy, and political engagement. Dealing with this split—encouraging growth in the hubs while arresting the decline elsewhere—will be the challenge of the century.
Enrico Moretti is a professor of economics at the University of California, Berkeley, whose research has been supported by the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health and has been featured in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and Slate, among other publications.

About 1 in 3 adults have it - an unwanted health risk.
The good news is that it is largely preventable.
It’s called metabolic syndrome, also called insulin resistance syndrome, which is a group of conditions that together raise your risk for coronary heart disease, diabetes and stroke.
KNOW YOUR RISK FOR METABOLIC SYNDROME
“It is important for everyone to know their risk for heart disease, and the combination of these conditions significantly raise your risk for heart disease. People with metabolic syndrome have 50-60% higher cardiovascular risk than those without the syndrome,” said Elizabeth Jarry, CNP at Baystate Cardiology.
Anyone with at least three of the following risk factors is considered to have metabolic syndrome:
- A large waistline, also called abdominal obesity or "having an apple shape." Too much fat around the stomach is a greater risk factor for heart disease than too much fat in other parts of the body.
- Having a high triglyceride level. Triglycerides are a type of fat found in the blood.
- Having a low HDL cholesterol level. HDL is sometimes called the "good" cholesterol because it helps remove cholesterol from your arteries.
- Having high blood pressure. If your blood pressure stays high over time, it can damage your heart and lead to other health problems.
- Having a high fasting blood sugar. Mildly high blood sugar may be an early sign of diabetes.
CAUSES OF METABOLIC SYNDROME
Several causes acting together can lead to metabolic syndrome including:
Being overweight or obese
- An inactive lifestyle
- Insulin resistance, a condition in which the body can't use insulin properly. Insulin is a hormone that helps move blood sugar into your cells to give them energy. Insulin resistance can lead to high blood sugar levels
- Age - your risk goes up as you get older
- Genetics - ethnicity and family history
“The good news is that most heart disease is 80% preventable and adopting a heart-healthy lifestyle can reduce your risk of developing metabolic syndrome and overall cardiovascular disease,” Jarry said.
She cited the American Heart Association’s Life’s Essential 8, also supported by the American College of Cardiology, as health behaviors and factors to address heart disease risks and metabolic syndrome.
REDUCE YOUR RISK OF HEART DISEASE
“The components of Life’s Essential 8 include eating better, being more active, quitting smoking (this includes vaping), getting healthy sleep, managing your weight, controlling your cholesterol, managing blood sugar, and keeping your blood pressure in check,” Jarry said.
“Losing weight, especially if you are obese, alongside exercise will provide you with the greatest benefit in reducing many of your risks including high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes,” she added.
There are times, however, when lifestyle changes need to be augmented with medical interventions such as medications to lower your cholesterol or blood pressure or even weight-loss surgery.
HEART DISEASE IN TEENS
While your risk for metabolic syndrome goes up as you get older, Jarry said clinicians are starting to see evidence of all five factors in the adolescent population.
“I suspect that this is largely due to the typical teenage diet of pizza, chips, soda and ice cream. Unfortunately, processed foods tend to also be less expensive and are created to be more addictive. As a result, we can expect to see a rise in heart disease over the next few years in younger age groups,” she said.
February is American Heart Month – a time to shine a spotlight on heart disease, the number one killer of Americans, when all people can focus on their cardiovascular health and address their risk factors for the disease.
Now is the time to have a discussion with your primary care provider about reducing your risks and setting strategies to achieve your goal of being heart healthy,” Jarry said.
Learn how to check your heart health. Know your risk and work with your doctor to create a plan to reduce your risk and protect your heart.

Tropical Bass Empire, Miss Isa GT, and her record ETORO are releasing their annual X-Mas compilation.
Navidades con ETORO is a sweet travel to the actual Latino-inspired scene, which actually serves as a curator type of experience:
If you want to know more about the actual meaning of the music, I will refer to Isa’s words:
“Music compilations are very important at xmas time in Colombia, it is a nice memory I have from xmas time, the soundtrack of December, each track brings so many memories. It was clear for me that when I had my record label , I’d curate a compilation every December”
All the tracks in this compilation are festive and upbeat, a premise of Isa’s curatorial duties. Let this compilation play from start to finish, let it it take you places.
The compilation kicks off with Cero39, one of Colombia’s most talked about artists of 2013. The track Berlombia uses of the marimba, characteristic of the Colombian pacific coast, to evoke feelings of long journeys into the deep unknown.
Track number 2 is a worldwide premier. Many Faces is the new project of Isa GT and Sasa (In Flagranti). ‘If You Want’ gives listeners a glimpse of what’s coming up on their debut EP. The shimmering melodies are complemented with Isa’s raw talent for combining catchy lyrics with aloof vocals.
Etoro compilation regular Moroka presents us with Loop Edge, a track with a hint of early Daft Punk. Moroka takes a loop and crafts it a whole song, by taking one section to build into an exciting composition.
Track 4 is a collaboration between two Colombian artists Caballo (Mad Decent) and Pernett. ‘Calle Infierno’ is a critical look at today’s situation in Colombia. The song combines current events with dance music, denouncing the injustice of the farmers’ crisis.
Track number 5 marks the return of Waya Waya, the duo from Aguascalientes, Mexico who released the amazing La Tribu EP on Etoro last year. For this compilation Waya Waya bring their tribal sounds to Ashewo, a haunting rooty futuristic piece.
On track 6, Isa GT teams up with Texas duo Royal Highness, who created the perfect mix of punchy beats and Latin cadence for Isa to jump on vocal duties and pay respect to Latino star Chingo Bling (who coined the term Juan Hunna)
Next Brain Damage by Argentina’s Fede Flores, features a Latin rhapsody full of compassed rhythms and drums.
To wrap up the compilation we have Bigote from Spain, who adds Suck My Dick to the compilation. The Jersey House-inspired track has bold lyrics and spirit that make you vogue all the way home.


General Motors Co. says the 40-mile (64.4-km) range of its Chevrolet Volt extended-range electric vehicle could vary by as much as 20%, depending on the climate and the basic laws of physics, which will impact its performance in mountainous regions.
