4. Are you in favour of a casino resort being located in Collingwood?.
The short answer is No. In my 4 consecutive terms on council I did not hear from the public that their vision of Collingwood included a casino. More hotels and resort like amenities yes but a casino, no. I did address a similar question from you the last time you did a thorough interview and ask that you provide a link to that answer. Also please review the link to the Ontario Auditor General’s report that questions the revenue projection benefits to local governments from gambling. http://www.auditor.on.ca/en/reports_en/OLGC_modernizationplan_en.pdf
How can a local council reach a conclusion if the information fed to them from OLG is suspect in its validity, the old “garbage in garbage out” result will happen every time.
I feel the provincial government’s unwillingness to properly fund the needs of its stakeholder has led to the creation of an alternate taxing scheme called gambling. You may call it entertainment and I respect your point of view but I believe there are only limited consumer dollars out there and to provide another large user such as a casino will only take dollars away from many of the small business owners who compete for the same consumer dollars. A commercial needs study should be provided by OLG in order to understand the impact of this new use on the local economy.
I thought the debate by this council on the slot barn was their finest hour. The comments were thoughtful and heartfelt and I was not surprised it was a 5-4 vote as I do believe this could be used as a wedge issue during the upcoming election. It would be better to have a community consultation phase if a proposal is brought forward by various development interests and let all of our citizens have a say in the future of our community. I recognize that there are people in our community who need employment and a hotel-casino would provide an opportunity for employment so a thorough discussion of the pros and cons needs to be understood by our community before such a development occurs within Collingwood or on our border.
5. The Downtown BIA seems to have become a completely ineffective organization. Reduced to complaining to council about lack of usage of the arena rather than any constructive conversations like unified store opening hours or a much needed revitalization of the downtown core. As mayor how would you rethink downtown Collingwood.
I think our BIA has done a wonderful job for its members albeit with some controversy on particular issues (patio debate comes to mind- DOH!) The BIA was a strong partner in the discussion of the 10 million dollar revitalization/reinvestment of the downtown and all members collectively put their money (1 million dollars towards the project) where their livelihood is dependent upon. They have a significant portion of their lives invested in the success of our downtown and their concerns should be heard by Council. The BIA does have a number of competing and complimentary stakeholders such as retail and office and at times they may be at odds.
I continue to be proud of the work of the BIA Manager and her Team in the many successful programs implemented throughout the calendar year to achieve “animation” within the downtown; one of the key objectives contained with the Vision 20/20 document. The downtown as a group is our largest employer and biggest tax payer. Council should listen to the needs of our key frontline stakeholders. The Town often provides without question unlimited resources to ensure access to vehicles throughout our road network in the winter and so we should but we should also provide better snow removal in the downtown in order for people to access the professional services and commercial interests all of us rely upon to lessen the residential property tax portion. I believe the Town’s Economic Development Officer should attend the BIA meetings as a key resource (note the Town has not had an EDO for 2 years now). Bringing people into the downtown core is essential so once again both the Shipyard development and the Hume/Hurontario projects are key infill projects. Looking at the work that was done in the St. Bonafice (Winnepeg) downtown to bring people to the downtown core would also be an opportunity to ensure continued prosperity of our downtown. If merchants are busy ringing in sales I believe none of us would be surprised to hear less concerns. An economic recession and recovery causes all kinds of stresses and providing for your family and employees wellbeing is probably the highest daily stress we face.
6. Speaking of downtown the last remaining parcel of waterfront land from Mountainview Hotel to Heritage Way has a proposed site plan that is underwhelming at best. Any chance that that could be revisited with you as mayor?
The project will likely be under construction within weeks. All planning approvals and public appeal processes have concluded, all necessary fees have been paid; so NO. (This one was moot sorry.)
7. A blueprint for the possible future of Collingwood was put forward 15 years ago called Vision 2020. You were a councillor at that time. What was your view of that document?
I went into the process somewhat skeptical but saw firsthand the community engagement process and the wonderful work achieved by many non-elected community leaders. A lot of the listed outcomes have been achieved including incorporating the 8 core principles into our Official Plan. I was proud to be a bit player in a grand process and community led vision project. It was a tremendous learning experience for me; a thorough public consultative process can produce great results.
8. How will you deal with the attacks and accusations that your term as mayor was ineffective and dysfunctional?
The facts contradict that assertion but perception must be dealt with and I will address them to the best of my abilities. Many of the votes were unanimous and some of the controversial ones of the 2006-2010 council were 7-2 or 6-3. It was often Sandra and Ian who voted contrary to the majority but that is okay as they were elected because of their views however they did represent the minority view yet managed the majority of press coverage so were effective in promoting unintentionally I am sure the perception of conflict and ineffectiveness instead of the reality of an active, democratic and progressive council. I am proud of the investments made in Collingwood by the Council of 2006-2010 often with funds from both Provincial and Federal government agencies. Many of the capital projects came in under budget and addressed much need local infrastructure renewal and expansion such as waste water sewers, storm water sewers and road improvements. My former colleagues have been harmed by the political rhetoric and electioneering in the 2010 election. None of us were perfect least of all me but my former colleagues did a wonderful job serving the needs of our community.
9. Part of the problem with your term as mayor was your detractors including the current mayor voting as a bloc. I do not agree with voting blocs I find them undemocratic. If you become mayor but the current voting bloc of (pick any 5) Lloyd, Lloyd, Cunningham, Chadwick, Edwards or West become part of your council how do you deal with that dynamic as mayor?
As Mayor I led a Council (2006-2010) that adhered to the procedural by-law and the policies of the community established by previous council and the council of the day. I would do the same again. The public has the privilege to select whomever they wish to represent their interests. I respect the citizens of Collingwood right to choose their representatives and will continue to act with the integrity, openness, honesty and transparency of good leadership according to the circumstances as they present themselves.
10. Are you planning on endorsing any other candidates for town council?

Almost fifty years since Mel Brooks’ original film was released, The Producers is taking to the stage again, and will be making a stop in Leeds at the Grand Theatre from 8th June until the 13th.
Telling the story of two devious Broadway producers who scheme to produce the worst musical ever and make a fortune from the insurance money when it tanks, The Producers was adapted for the stage in 2001 by Brooks from his original film, and this stage adaptation was in turn adapted for a 2005 film starring Matthew Broderick and Nathan Lane.
This time, the musical has been brought to theatres by the producer of sell-out successes Midnight Tango and Dance ’Til Dawn and acclaimed Top Hat director Matthew White. With an all-star cast led by comedians Jason Manford and Ross Noble, the musical has been touring since the beginning of March and has received a slew of four and five star reviews from the national and regional press, including The Times and The Daily Mail, with What’s On Stage writing “If you’re looking for an easy, fun night out at the theatre, the new touring production of The Producers is very much for you.”
Featuring classic songs including “Springtime for Hitler” and “Keep it Gay”, this new adaptation is certain to delight audiences with its tongue-in-cheek satire of the theatre world, and for fans of Mel Brooks’ original or anyone merely interested in seeing what acting chops Manford and Noble have, it’s sure to provide a great night out.
Tickets are available from https://www.leedsgrandtheatre.com/ priced from £18.50-£40

Manchester United last night made a significant step towards eventually losing to Barcelona in the final of the Champions League when they overcame a lacklustre Chelsea side at Old Trafford.
Although there is still a very tricky semi-final to negotiate – probably against German side Schalke – United are quietly confident of securing the honour of being out-played and generally embarrassed at Wembley on May 28th by the Catalan maestros.
A delighted club executive told the Cutter last night, ‘We’ve dreamed of this all season. The players are absolutely beside themselves to be only a two-legged tie away from a Champions League runner-up medal. Playing Barcelona will be a privilege none of those boys will ever forget. In fact Darren Fletcher has even asked if he can take his autograph book onto the pitch with him. Personally I cannot wait for the opening whistle to blow, knowing that anything could happen in those ninety minutes. We might have a meaningful attack at some point or even – God willing – a corner!’
United gained the opportunity to trudge off the pitch at the end of May after getting past an underwhelming Chelsea who now must concentrate on securing a top four place in order to have the chance to lose to Barca at some stage next season.
A dejected John Terry summed up the mood of the cockney camp.
‘We were desperate to add to our runners-up feat of three years ago. I’ve even been practising my bawling in the mirror so people would actually believe I was gutted at the loss. I bet Ferdinand hasn’t done that which just shows why he isn’t even captain of his club, never mind the national side.’

Early figures showed 7,936 attended the three-day event, which opened at Harrogate International Centre on 19 January. Up by some 30 per cent on last year's attendance, the surge in visitor numbers corresponded with an increase in exhibitors and the opening of a fifth exhibition hall.
Among the mowing equipment to debut was the John Deere 9009A TerrainCut rough mower (left). The latest addition to the firm's A Model mowers, it combines higher-capacity mowing with premium cut quality and after-cut appearance. "With the 9009A, our widest model yet, you can maximise productivity and cut quality from a wide-area mower while having more control over how it performs in the rough," said John Deere turf division manager Chris Meacock.
The 9009A has five 68.6cm (27in) independent rotary mower decks, providing an overall cut of 2.7m (9ft). Rated at a maximum 55hp, the direct injection four-cylinder diesel engine uses integrated cooled exhaust gas recirculation and automatic particulate filter cleaning to meet Stage IIIb emissions regulations.
Making its worldwide debut at BTME, Jacobsen's LF577 has seven cutting units to give a mowing width of 3.53m (11ft 6in) and a prodigious output of 4.5ha per hour at a mowing speed of 12.9kmh. Features include an electronically controlled hydrostatic traction pedal to provide smooth operation through controlled acceleration and deceleration, helping to reduce wheelspin and lower the pedal effort needed by the operator. The unit's SureTrac four-wheel drive parallel-cross series system also provides traction along with climbing ability.
The standard power unit is a Kubota 28kW (37.5hp), three-cylinder, liquid-cooled diesel engine, with the option for a Kubota 36.5kW (48.9hp) four-cylinder diesel if preferred. The LF577 uses 17.8cm (7in) diameter Classic XP cutting units fitted with nine or 11 blade reels. Smaller 12.7cm (5in) diameter sevenor nine-bladed reels and true set adjustment are available.
The Reelmaster 5010-H hybrid fairway mower also launched at the show as Toro distributor Lely - Partners in Turfcare focused on energy efficiency. The 5010-H is the industry's first fairway mower with a true hybrid drive system. Offering operators up to 20 per cent savings in fuel costs, this mower attracted a lot of attention.
Powered by Toro's new patented PowerMatch technology, the drive system couples the power from a 24.8hp diesel engine with a self-charging 48V battery pack to match the power needed for traction and cutting based on mowing conditions.
Lely national sales manager Jeff Anguige explained: "On most fairways, a 24.8hp engine has enough power to complete a job. However, when there are more challenging mowing conditions, such as hilly terrain, more power is needed. That's when the Reelmaster 5010-H sheds the cutting unit load from the engine to the battery pack, allowing more horsepower to be allocated to the traction circuit. If at that point even more power is necessary, the battery pack continues to power the cutting units while also boosting the engine, giving the machine the equivalent of over 40hp."
Crossover utility vehicle
Also attracting attention on the Toro stand, the next-generation mid-duty Workman GTX is a turf and grounds crossover utility vehicle. Available in petrol or electric versions, it boasts 300 configuration options including front and rear attachments, a flatbed and a four-seat option.
"This model is first in the range to offer the option to seat four, working as a personnel carrier as well as materials carrier, and does so without compromising on power, comfort or control," said Anguige. "It is an exceptionally versatile and powerful machine. A host of additional features means the model meets high power and performance standards, while also being incredibly comfortable to drive. While more compact and lightweight, meaning it's kind to turf, power hasn't been substituted for a light tread - this machine has both."
A new integrated cab is a key feature of the Grand L40-II models exhibited by Kubota. Designed specifically for comfort, so maintaining high productivity throughout the day, the cab includes a deluxe seat and incorporates extended legroom as well as big improvements to the control panel for ease of use and heightened performance.
"A machine that offers the operator increased comfort and productivity is what business owners demand to ensure that output is high," Kubota Groundcare business development manager Adrian Langmead pointed out. "The Grand L40-II will deliver this."
Alongside improvements in the cab, fuel efficiency remains a key feature. "In addition to functional and operational environments, our E-TVCS (three vortex combustion system) engine will deliver efficiency and reduced emissions output to further streamline operational costs and improve profitability," Langmead added.
New kit launches for turf maintenance drew the crowds to several stands. The Double A Turf Maintenance System was one such product. Designed and built by the company, it allows greenkeepers and groundsmen to operate a range of attachments from the seat of any utility vehicle, tractor or ride-on mower.
With no requirement for a hydraulic system, the unit incorporates an electrically operated ram that lifts attachments up and down through a patented linkage system. Currently available attachments include core collector, dragmat drag brush and spring tine rake.
With the introduction of sprayer testing, turf managers finding their current sprayers old and outdated took the opportunity to view new applicators at BTME. Gambetti reported much interest in its 200-litre Mini-Demount Skid sprayer with 3.5m or 4m height-adjustable boom.
Full nutrient support
With fertiliser and seed high on turf managers' shopping lists at this time of year, new products commanded a great deal of attention - including a new liquid fertiliser that provides full nutrient support for fine sports turf.
Following the trend for little-and-often spoon-feeding turf, Basfoliar Turf Complete SL from Compo Expert contains the full spectrum of turfgrass nutrients, having an NPK content of 9-4-6 plus essential trace elements and being fortified with magnesium for improved sward colour. It has been formulated to give rapid soil penetration and improved uptake to ensure immediate absorption into the root system of golf greens, tees and football pitches.
The product also contains five per cent Ascophyllum nodosum seaweed extract, adding to the range of beneficial bioactive substances that help combat stresses caused by excessive wear and unfavourable conditions. But it is the addition of block co-polymer technology that enables the liquid fertiliser to rapidly penetrate thick layers of hydrophobic material and so make nutrients readily available within the root zone.
"Basfoliar Turf Complete SL enables greenkeepers, course managers and groundsmen to apply exactly the right balance of nutrients at precise timings," explained Compo Expert UK director Jerry McHoul (pictured). "The ability to spoon-feed fine turf grasses on such a precise and timely basis ensures that nutrients are assimilated as efficiently as possible during the growing season and has the added advantage of ensuring that no granular residues, speckling or colouration differences affect the playing surface."
Headland Amenity also brought a new fertiliser to this year's show. Xtend Fine offers a slow-release source of nitrogen that feeds turf for up to three months. The 1.5mm soluble granules dissolve in water, eliminating pickup, and are safe for areas without irrigation.
Uflexx stabilised nitrogen limits nitrogen loss to the atmosphere. The formulation also features a nitrification inhibitor that slows the conversion of 88 per cent nitrogen into usable forms over a two to three-month period. NPK analysis is 26-3-3. The product is suitable for use on close-mown areas cut at 6mm and above.
Turf managers were given two opportunities to speed up germination thanks to technology introduced at BTME. Rigby Taylor launched Germin-8 grass seed treatment to stimulate and support accelerated germination and emergence through a potent cocktail of speciality penetrating surfactants, nutrients, sugars and mycorrhizae pre-applied to each individual seed.
A 4G seed coat technology was also launched by Johnsons Sports Seed, part of DLF Trifolium. The patented ProNitro seed coating focuses on improved nutrient utilisation during the early stages of plant growth. It contains 15 per cent nitrogen in a combination of both fast-acting and slow-release forms. "By combining the seed and fertiliser, the new seed receives the full benefit and not the surrounding plants - especially important when overseeding into a competitive sward," said DLF amenity sales manager Derek Smith.
Among new seed lines unveiled at BTME, Germinal's Cabrio perennial ryegrass attracted interest for its fineness of leaf. It scored a class-leading 9.2 for fineness in the latest edition of Turfgrass Seed yet promises harder-wearing and more attractive swards. With a mean score of 8.3, Cabrio is expected to dominate Germinal's sales in 2017.
"A mean score of 8.3 should put Cabrio at the top of the main L1 table in 2017," said Germinal amenity sales manager Richard Brown. "The current top-rated variety has a mean score of 8.1 so we are confident that Cabrio will be a popular choice."

How to Choose the Right Exercise Treadmill for Your Fitness Goals
Are you looking to get in shape and improve your overall health? If so, purchasing an exercise treadmill can be a great investment. With so many options available, it can be overwhelming to choose the right one for your fitness goals. In this article, we will provide you with tips on how to choose the right exercise treadmill for your needs.
Consider Your Fitness Goals
Before purchasing an exercise treadmill, it’s important to consider your fitness goals. Are you looking to lose weight, improve your cardiovascular health, or train for a specific event? Different treadmills offer various features that can help you achieve your goals. For example, if you’re training for a marathon, you’ll want a treadmill with a high maximum speed and incline range. If you’re looking to lose weight, you’ll want a treadmill with built-in workout programs and a heart rate monitor.
Think About Your Budget
Exercise treadmills come in a range of prices, so it’s important to think about your budget before making a purchase. While it may be tempting to go for the cheapest option, it’s important to invest in a quality treadmill that will last you for years to come. Consider the features that are most important to you and look for a treadmill that fits within your budget.
Check the Treadmill’s Motor
The motor is one of the most important components of an exercise treadmill. It’s responsible for powering the belt and ensuring a smooth and consistent workout. Look for a treadmill with a motor that has a minimum of 2.5 horsepower. This will ensure that the treadmill can handle your workouts and won’t break down over time.
Consider the Treadmill’s Size
Exercise treadmills come in a range of sizes, so it’s important to consider the space you have available in your home. Measure the area where you plan to place the treadmill and look for a model that will fit comfortably. Keep in mind that you’ll also need space to move around the treadmill while using it.
Look for Additional Features
Many exercise treadmills come with additional features that can enhance your workout experience. Look for a model with built-in workout programs, a heart rate monitor, and adjustable incline settings. Some treadmills also come with built-in speakers and a tablet holder, allowing you to watch movies or listen to music while you exercise.
In conclusion, choosing the right exercise treadmill for your fitness goals can be a daunting task. However, by considering your goals, budget, motor, size, and additional features, you can find a treadmill that will help you achieve your fitness goals and improve your overall health. Remember to invest in a quality treadmill that will last you for years to come, and enjoy the benefits of a great workout from the comfort of your own home.
Tips for Proper Form and Technique on an Exercise Treadmill
1. Start Slowly
When you first start using a treadmill, it’s important to start slowly and gradually increase your speed and intensity over time. This will help you avoid injury and build up your endurance. Begin by walking at a comfortable pace for 5-10 minutes, and then gradually increase your speed and incline as you feel comfortable.
2. Maintain Proper Posture
Maintaining proper posture is key to getting the most out of your treadmill workout. Keep your shoulders relaxed and your back straight, and avoid leaning forward or back. Make sure your feet are pointed straight ahead and your knees are slightly bent.
3. Use Your Arms
Using your arms can help you maintain balance and increase the intensity of your workout. Swing your arms naturally as you walk or run, and keep them bent at a 90-degree angle. Avoid clenching your fists or swinging your arms too high.
4. Stay Hydrated
Staying hydrated is important for any workout, but it’s especially important when using a treadmill. Make sure to drink plenty of water before, during, and after your workout to avoid dehydration and cramping.
5. Use Proper Footwear
Using proper footwear is essential to avoiding injury and getting the most out of your workout. Make sure your shoes fit well and provide adequate support for your feet and ankles. Avoid wearing shoes with high heels or thick soles, as these can cause instability and discomfort.
6. Cool Down Properly
Cooling down properly after your workout can help prevent injury and reduce muscle soreness. After your workout, slow down your speed and incline gradually, and then walk at a comfortable pace for 5-10 minutes to allow your heart rate to return to normal.
In conclusion, using a treadmill can be a great way to improve your fitness and achieve your goals. But, it’s important to use proper form and technique to avoid injury and get the most out of your workout. By starting slowly, maintaining proper posture, using your arms, staying hydrated, using proper footwear, and cooling down properly, you can enjoy a safe and effective treadmill workout.
Common Mistakes to Avoid When Using an Exercise Treadmill
Mistake #1: Not Warming Up
One of the biggest mistakes people make when using a treadmill is not warming up properly. It’s important to spend a few minutes warming up before you start running or walking on the treadmill. This can include some light stretching or walking at a slower pace to get your muscles warmed up and ready for the workout ahead.
Mistake #2: Holding Onto the Handrails
Another common mistake people make when using a treadmill is holding onto the handrails. While it may seem like a good idea to hold onto the handrails for balance or support, it can actually throw off your balance and lead to bad posture. Instead, focus on keeping your body upright and engaging your core muscles to maintain balance.
Mistake #3: Using the Wrong Footwear
The type of footwear you wear when using a treadmill is important. Wearing the wrong shoes can lead to discomfort, pain, and even injury. Make sure to wear shoes that are specifically designed for running or walking on a treadmill. These shoes provide the necessary support and cushioning to help protect your feet and joints.
Mistake #4: Setting the Incline Too High
Many treadmills come with an incline feature, which can be a great way to add some variety to your workout. However, setting the incline too high can be a mistake. It can put unnecessary strain on your joints and muscles, and can even lead to injury. Make sure to start with a low incline and gradually increase it as you become more comfortable.
Mistake #5: Not Cooling Down
Just like warming up, cooling down is an important part of any workout. It helps to gradually lower your heart rate and prevent injury. Make sure to spend a few minutes walking at a slower pace or stretching after your workout to cool down properly.
Using a treadmill can be a great way to get in shape and improve your overall health. However, it’s important to avoid common mistakes to ensure a safe and effective workout. Remember to warm up properly, avoid holding onto the handrails, wear the right footwear, set the incline appropriately, and cool down after your workout. By following these tips, you can make the most of your treadmill workout and achieve your fitness goals.
Advanced Workouts to Try on Your Exercise Treadmill for Increased Fitness Results
Interval training is a great way to increase your cardiovascular endurance and burn more calories. To do interval training on your treadmill, start with a warm-up at a moderate pace for 5-10 minutes. Then, increase the speed to a sprint for 30 seconds to 1 minute, followed by a slower recovery pace for 1-2 minutes. Repeat this cycle for 20-30 minutes.
Hill training is another great way to challenge yourself on the treadmill. Start with a warm-up at a moderate pace for 5-10 minutes. Then, increase the incline to a steep hill and maintain a slower pace for 1-2 minutes. Lower the incline and increase the speed for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Repeat this cycle for 20-30 minutes.
Reverse walking on the treadmill is a great way to target different muscles in your legs and improve your balance. Start with a warm-up at a moderate pace for 5-10 minutes. Then, turn around and walk backwards on the treadmill at a slow pace for 1-2 minutes. Increase the speed and maintain the backwards walking motion for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Repeat this cycle for 20-30 minutes.
High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT)
HIIT is a popular workout style that involves short bursts of high-intensity exercise followed by periods of rest. To do HIIT on your treadmill, start with a warm-up at a moderate pace for 5-10 minutes. Then, increase the speed to a sprint for 20-30 seconds, followed by a slower recovery pace for 10-20 seconds. Repeat this cycle for 20-30 minutes.
In conclusion, there are many advanced workouts that you can try on your exercise treadmill to increase your fitness results. Whether you choose interval training, hill training, reverse walking, or HIIT, make sure to start with a warm-up and gradually increase the intensity of your workout. Remember to listen to your body and adjust the speed and incline as needed. With dedication and consistency, you’ll be able to achieve your fitness goals and take your treadmill workouts to the next level!

Tomer Erlich, doing business as an anonymous LLC, has filed applications for a four-story, eight-unit residential building at 204 Monroe Street, in western Bedford-Stuyvesant, located seven blocks north of the Nostrand Avenue stop on the A and C trains. The building will measure 10,000 square feet in total, with 8,000 square feet being used as residential space. Units will average 1,000 square feet apiece, and two duplex units will be located across the third, fourth, and penthouse floors. Robert Lin’s Flushing-based A&T Engineering is the applicant of record. Permits were filed in December to demolish an existing single-story warehouse.
Queens-based Xiaozhong Yuan has filed applications for three three-story, three-unit residential buildings at 108-43 – 108-47 52nd Avenue, in Corona, located just west of Flushing Meadows Corona Park. Two of the buildings will have 3,201 square feet of residential space each, while the third structure will contain 2,942 square feet. Across the entire development, full-floor units will average a relatively spacious 1,038 square feet apiece. Flushing-based Zheng & Associates is the applicant of record. Demolition started last week on two existing two-story townhouses, according to filings.
Flushing-based D&K Realty Development has filed applications for three three-story, three-family residential buildings at 518-522 West 232nd Street, on the southern end of Riverdale in the North Bronx. The square-footage of each building differs slightly, although the entire development will have 8,670 square feet of residential space. Across the buildings, units will average 963 square feet apiece, so either small condos or spacious rental apartments could be in the works. Flushing-based Michael Kang is the architect of record. The site is currently vacant, as its three-story predecessor was demolished back in 2007.
In May of 2015, YIMBY reported on applications for a four-story, seven-unit residential project at 797 Sterling Place, in eastern Crown Heights. The developer, Ari Kirschrnbaum, however, has since filed permits for a larger building. The new filings call for a six-story, eight-unit mixed-use structure measuring 13,292 square feet in total. A 1,706 square-foot children’s day care is now planned on the ground and cellar levels. The residential units will begin on the second floor and should average 1,034 square feet apiece, which means small condos may be in the works. Suresh Manchanda’s Flushing-based L&C Associates is the applicant of record. The site is located within a five-block radius of the 2, 3, 4, 5, and Franklin Avenue Shuttle (S) trains.
Will the former First Church of Christ, Scientist in New York City at 361 Central Park West become condominiums? We still don’t know. But we do know many in the community don’t want the conversion and at least one pastor wants to preach there.

A new influenza pandemic is being seen by experts as the most significant global public health emergency caused by a naturally occurring pathogen.
Since 1918 when more than 40 million people died in a global flu outbreak there have been two other pandemic outbreaks, 1957 in South East Asia which resulted in 2 million deaths and a further one million died in the 1968 pandemic.
In the last 12 months, the world has moved closer to an influenza pandemic than it has been at any time since then. The crucial factors which might spark off a pandemic are a new virus subtype transmittable to humans, which has the ability to replicate in humans and cause disease, and be efficiently transmitted from human to human.
Health experts are concerned that the current avian influenza virus, H5N1, meets these pre-requisites. The first instance of probable human-to-human transmission was reported in September 2004 in Thailand and even though this appears to be an isolated case, experts are dubious and think others may not have been identified and reported.
Of the 88 identified human cases in Asia, by mid April 2005, 51 of them had died. The main victims have been young, healthy adults and this is puzzling the scientific experts.
The H5N1 virus is now endemic in many south-Asian countries and experts are now aiming at containment rather than eradication. It was first identified in 1997, and since 2004 the avian flu virus has become more pathogenic, surviving several days longer, has been found in mammals and can be asymptomatic - 1/3 of domestic ducks in Thailand are reportedly infected without developing any obvious signs.
An expert from the World Health Organization (WHO) has estimated that even in the best case scenario the global death toll could be between 2 and 7 million people.
The WHO were urging all governments in January this year to draw up and implement a national preparedness plan and to strengthen global influenza surveillance.

In this article, we shall be looking at one of the hotly debated topics on why consuming raw green vegetables are good for your health. Certainly having vegetables in any form is a good way of adding to the nutritional value of your diet. But with this being said, surely, having potatoes or other cooked vegetables with a cheese dip isn’t the best way of consuming vegetables either.
The more you fry or cook your food in any way the nutritional value of your food items breaks up. Vegetables provide you with a low-calorie diet while it is also a great way to add all the nutrients to your diet.
All green vegetables are rich in vitamins such as Vitamin B, Vitamin C, Vitamin D, and others. They can also help you to have loads of antioxidants, fiber, minerals like magnesium, calcium, potassium, also with some protein and carbohydrates.
Whether having cooked or uncooked is a good idea for you to take in vegetables and this surely is going to reduce the use of pills like Fildena 150 to a lot.
Here are some of the reasons why the uncooked version of green vegetables is good for a diet of men-
Add more water-soluble vitamins to your diet
One of the reasons that go with the intake of raw green veggies is that it can add up more water-soluble vitamins to your diet. There are some nutrients in food items take for example Vitamin C that tend to break when you expose them to high heat such as the deep frying method of cooking.
It tends to leach out all the nutrients and mix them with the water. For example, this is why nutritionists are prescribing you to eat raw cauliflower than fry it.
The answer is simple that is you can get more amounts of water-soluble vitamins such as Vitamin B and Vitamin C rather than when you cook the same green vegetable.
But some say that despite all this the number of vitamins that are left in the green veggies after a hard boil or a deep-fry can still make up for the nutritional needs for your day.
More content of antioxidants with raw green veggies
Another reason why you would want to have raw green vegetables is because of the rich antioxidant content that you get with them. Surely you know the importance of antioxidants in our diet. They help you to obtain fewer calories and prevent inflammation too.
Some parts of antioxidants leach out in the water eventually when you cook them. The other problem is that due to the high heat content and being in contact with air the whole time some of the powers of antioxidants get neutralized due to the general oxidation process that gets triggered at high temperatures. When you take a fresh green vegetable and have it in the raw uncooked form then it allows you with having all the nutritional contents intact in them. This will help you to avoid having pills like Cenforce later on.
Add up a bit of freshness and crunchiness into your meals
When you take uncooked raw items in your diet and present them on the dinner table it certainly looks pleasing to the eyes. It is one of the best ways to add more variety to your diet. For example, when you have a look at fresh green salad containing cucumber, gourd, lettuce, broccoli, spinach, and kale, it looks so fresh and juice that you would just want to munch in it right away.
We believe that undertaking such healthier forms of diet can add to your nutritional diet and help you to avoid pills like Cenforce 100. It also offers you to add up all the seasonal green veggies to your diet and thus further enhance the nutritional content of your diet.
Problems of having raw green vegetables
The problem is that while having uncooked food items can avoid damaging or losing some of the nutritional content, vice versa is true as well. For example, some nutritional items become more available when you cook them.
Although the example we are going to mention is not a green vegetable but still it is worth having a look at. For example, carotene becomes more bioavailable when it is cooked, or even that same is true with lycopene which you can obtain through tomatoes.
The other benefit is that it does take a long time digesting the raw uncooked food items as the nutritional items are still in the unprocessed stage. The absorption process will take time and may not suit those already having weaker bowel movements.
The way out…
Well, we will love to keep things mid-way. At least do not consume your vegetables entirely on the raw stage and ensure that they are cooked at least such as boiled, baked, grilled, etc. this way you can have avoided buying more pills from Powpills.com.

How to check your car’s MOT status and what to do when it runs out
Following the end of the Covid-related MOT extension, an extra 4.5 million vehicles are expected to be presented for the test before the end of the year, leading to potential backlogs and delays.
With the automatic extension, millions of drivers were able to forget about the annual roadworthiness test for a few months but might now be struggling to work out when their car’s MOT expires.
To help, we’ve rounded up answers to the most common questions around the MOT, ranging from how to check and expiry date and what it costs to how long it takes and what it covers, so here is our guide to everything you need to know about the MOT.
What is the MOT?
The MOT test is an annual check of a vehicle’s roadworthiness, essentially to ensure that it meets basic standards for safety.
Different vehicles undergo different tests, with separate categories for cars, motorbikes, and large passenger and goods vehicles.
The MOT is a test of your vehicle's roadworthiness (Photo: Shutterstock)
When is my car's MOT due?
Cars are exempt from the MOT for the first three years of their lives but then must be tested once a year until they reach 40 years old. After this, they are exempt from the MOT, although you can still present them for testing.
Your car’s first MOT will be due on the third anniversary of its first registration and the pass certificate remains valid for 12 months from that date.
You can submit your car for a test up to one month (minus a day) before the current MOT runs out and keep the same renewal date. For example, if your MOT runs out on May 15, the earliest you can get an MOT to keep the same renewal date for next year is April 16. If you take your vehicle for its MOT on April 14 the expiry date changes to April 13 the following year.
Remember, if it fails the test before the renewal date, the old certificate is still valid, but the vehicle might not be safe to drive.
How much does it cost?
The maximum price a garage can charge for a Class 4 (car) MOT is £54.85, as set by the DVSA (Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency). However, some garages and dealerships will offer cheaper tests as a way to attract customers (and ensure they get their business if any repair work is needed).
How long does the MOT take?
There is no set length of time for an MOT test but, according to MOT specialists Halfords Autocentres, it will typically take between 45 minutes and an hour.
Can anyone carry out an MOT?
No, the test can only be carried out at an accredited MOT testing station and by a qualified MOT tester who has undergone specific training.
All test centres will display the MOT symbol of three intersecting white triangles on a blue background and while they are no longer required to display the qualification certificates of all their MOT technicians many still choose to do so.
All MOT centres must display this symbol (Photo: Shutterstock)
What does the MOT cover?
The MOT test looks at the mechanical and electrical operation of your car to ensure it meets certain safety standards.
The test changed in 2018 to include new fault categories and stricter emissions testing.
The technician will either grant a pass certificate or issue a failure notice on the grounds of major or dangerous faults. Minor faults do not constitute a fault but act as an advisory of issues that will need to be addressed soon.
A full list of items checked can be found on the DVSA website but major areas covered include the structural integrity of the vehicle; braking, suspension and steering; fuel system; tyre condition; lighting; exhaust system and emissions; seats; horn and registration plates.
What can I check myself?
Some issues are pretty hard to spot to the untrained eye but many failures are easily avoided.
The 10 most common reasons for MOT failures include issues with lights, tyres, brakes, suspension and visibility. Many of these can be avoided by carrying out some basic maintenance, and the DVSA gives the following list of items it recommends drivers check themselves:
the windscreen, windows and mirrors are cleanall lights workthe brakes workengine oilwater level in the radiator or expansion tankbrake fluid levelbatterywindscreen washer fluid leveltyres - they must have the correct tread depth and be free of cuts and defects
How do I check when my MOT is due?
You should be given a paper copy of the pass certificate after each test, which includes the expiry date.
If you’ve lost this or can’t be bothered rummaging around in your filing, the DVSA has a tool for checking your car’s MOT status as well as its MOT and safety recall history.
Can I drive a car without an MOT?
No. An MOT is a legal requirement and if you are caught driving a car without a valid MOT certificate you can be fined £1,000.
Despite what some people might tell you, there is no MOT grace period after its expiry date.
The only times you can legally drive without an MOT are if you are driving the car to an MOT testing station to have a pre-booked test carried out, if you are taking it to be repaired, or if the vehicle is more than 40 years old, and thus exempt from the test.

Cape Town – Conjoined twins that were born at Jane Furse Hospital through a caesarean section died in the early hours of Thursday after their condition deteriorated overnight.
In a statement, the Limpopo Department of Health said that health MEC Dr Phophi Ramathuba had received with sadness the news of the demise of the conjoined twins.
Since their admission to Mankweng Neonatal ICU, specialists from various Clinical disciplines from both Mankweng-Pietersburg Complex and Dr George Mukhari Central Hospital, had been hard at work in persuit of the best possible intervention for the case, the statement said.
The initial set of studies revealed multiple complexities which required appropriate and thorough planning of further management, it said.
“We were hopeful that the scheduled joint academic meeting between specialists from Mankweng Tertiary Academic and George Mukhari Central Academic Hospital would bring the desired results for the future of the twins. Unfortunately the twins could not make it. Our sincere condolences to the family and community at large,” Ramathuba was quoted as saying.
According to News24, the twins were born on April 7 to a 41-year-old woman.
Initially, the mother was diagnosed with a normal twin pregnancy during antenatal clinic visits. It was only during the operation that doctors discovered the babies were joined at the chest and abdomen.
The babies had been believed to be the first conjoined twins in Limpopo, the report said.

At Summer Jam yesterday, it was revealed that ASAP Ferg’s upcoming project was pushed back to August 20th. That was disappointing because as far as we knew, it was going to be a mixtape. But on Twitter today, we got word from ASAP Yams that Trap Lord has now become his debut album on Polo Ground/RCA. That’s great to see, and also interesting because Ferg doesn’t have much material out, but that may actually help him out as people may peep into his album after hearing his few great songs.
trap lord is an album

Taliban fighters in the Afghan capital, Kabul, started collecting weapons from civilians on Monday because people no longer need them for personal protection, a Taliban official said.
"We understand people kept weapons for personal safety. They can now feel safe. We are not here to harm innocent civilians," the official told Reuters.

City resident Saad Mohseni, director of the MOBY group media company, said on Twitter that Taliban soldiers had come to his company compound to enquire about the weapons kept by his security team.
Earlier today, the Taliban declared the war in Afghanistan over after taking control of the presidential palace in Kabul while Western nations scrambled on Monday to evacuate their citizens amid chaos at the airport as frantic Afghans searched for a way out.
President Ashraf Ghani fled the country on Aug 15 as fighters from the group entered the capital virtually unopposed, saying he wanted to avoid bloodshed, while hundreds of Afghans desperate to leave flooded Kabul airport.
"Today is a great day for the Afghan people and the mujahideen. They have witnessed the fruits of their efforts and their sacrifices for 20 years," Mohammad Naeem, the spokesman for the Taliban's political office, told Al Jazeera TV.
"Thanks to God, the war is over in the country."

I have been doing drawings for my journal. I’ve been drawing humans mostly and animals – just like tigers, lions – the lions I copied by a snowflake that Mariah did. She made a mistake snowflake and it turned out to be a lion for me! I copied it by drawing.
This is a portrait of Mom, Makayla, Mariah and me. I just watned to do a portrait for mom. It took one day. It took me a while because I lost the pencils I was working with (giggle!). I like that I did framing.
My second one, yup, is a kind of a person. I designed in on my own. It’s a bad guy girl. I kind of did this (made a triangle on his forehead) to make him look bad. It kind of looks like Daedelus (inventor from Percy Jackson). What I like about it is the bad guy triangle.
What I like about this one is I drawed my way. I like that I did a smile. I like how I did eyebrows…oh! I need to add texture to it! (see the eyebrows)

Eleanor Kennedy at the Business Journal has caught up with the happenings at health care technology company Shareable Ink. Founder and CTO Stephen Hau, who relocated the company here from Boston in 2010, left in May and CEO Hal Andrews says he is refocusing his team's efforts on working with electronic health vendors rather than selling directly to doctors. Get the full story here.
Local health care entrepreneur Hal Andrews has been elected to the board of Medify, a Seattle-based health care data analytics venture formally launched this summer. Medify's team says its technology "mines hundreds of millions of real patient experiences from disparate data sources that are backed by medical professionals. Medify then makes the most personalized and relevant experiences discoverable, trackable, and shareable by patients and their families to help them answer their most important questions." Andrews a few years ago built Data Advantage before selling that venture to Press Ganey.

Don’t fear the ReaPeR?
Remember how you could play albums backwards and hear secret messages? On The Beatles album, “Abbey Road” many people heard the phrase “Paul is Dead”, which caused many fans to believe that Paul McCartney had died in a car crash.
Some messages are not so hard to understand. Take the 1976 hit from Blue Oyster Cult, “Don’t fear the Reaper”
“All our times have come
Here but now they’re gone
Seasons don’t fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain..we can be like they are…”
1. MRIS is the largest MLS provider in the country.
Not being able to get the largest MLS in country to sign up doesn’t bode well for the future.
2. Dale Ross, RPR’s CEO, is the former CEO of MRIS
If you can’t get the MLS you used to run sign up, then who can you get?
3. MRIS covers Washington D.C. the very place RPR hopes to sell the MLS data.
If you can’t get the local MLS to sign up, then how good is your coverage?
Plus 2 other significant developments have happen.
1. Laura Wolford has left the VP of marketing position or MRIS and has been replaced by Rob Hahn (as a consultant), the blogger/consultant who declared “The death of RPR” is now running their marketing department. Not a great sign for RPR either.
2. Also, rumor is that MRIS is working on a home grown version of RPR, where they get to keep all the profits. Doubters might say that this will prove to be unsuccessful. These doubters are wrong and have not been paying attention to what MRIS CEO David Charron and his team have accomplished in the past several years.
“Come on baby…don’t fear the reaper
Baby take my hand…don’t fear the reaper
We’ll be able to fly…don’t fear the reaper
Baby I’m your man…”
Of course the MRIS board of directors could change their mind, but when you add all these factors up it doesn’t look good.
“La la la la la
La la la la la”
It’s clear now that RPR not offering MLS providers a way to share revenue generated from their respective data was a mistake. Some companies are not only allowing MLS to “dip their beak” , but go for a swim!
So the solution is pretty clear, the MLSs have spoken…. MORE COW BELL RPR!!!

Nonetheless, Tesla critics assume that the vehicle manufacturer were profitable in recent quarters on account of the inclusion of increased environmental regulatory credits. Tesla receives credits at status regulators due to the generation of zero-emission motor vehicles. Other automakers purchase these kinds of credits out of Tesla to comply with emission laws. Throughout 3Q, Tesla’s profits from regulatory credits improved 196 % Y/Y to $397 zillion.
Furthermore, sony has cut its vehicle rates many times this year to be cut-throat, particularly in markets as certain analysts and China are actually worried about the effect of this low selling price cuts on margins over the long-range. But, it is important that Tesla’s vehicle gross margin (even soon after excluding tax credits) extended to 23.7 % in 3Q20 when compared to 20.8 % in 3Q19.
Meanwhile, Tesla goes on to aim for 500,000 deliveries this time inspite of pandemic led output disruptions somewhat earlier this season. The company is actually committing heavily found capability development during its Shanghai, China factory and it is building new industry with Berlin, Germany and Austin, Texas. (See TSLA stock evaluation on TipRanks)
The business enterprise likewise looks at considerable growth potential for its energy production and also storage organization. Profits from this particular organization expanded 44 % to $579 million in 3Q but accounted for only 6.6 % of Tesla’s general top-line.
Tesla stock have risen by a staggering 403 % this time. And that is the reason the standard analyst selling price aim of $379.26 suggests a possible drawback of 9.9 % inside the weeks in front. The Street is now sidelined on the Stock which has a Hold analyst consensus that breaks done straight into nine Buys, nine Holds and 9 Sells.

The company currently sells a 7-seater electric SUV ES8 and the variant of its the 6-seater ES8, a 5-seater electrical SUV ES6 as well as the 5-seater electric coupe SUV EC6, that the business started out deliveries in September.
Lately, J.P. Morgan analyst Nick Lai up Nio to buy from Hold and also nurtured his selling price objective to forty dolars through $14 because he views this company as a long term victorious one within the China premium EV room. He expects Nio to command ~30 % of this premium passenger EV industry or reach 334,000 units by 2025.
Nio shares have been soaring the week on multiple beneficial update versions. On Nov. 4, Nio stock price surged 6 % as Citigroup analyst Jeff Chung brought up his price objective to a Street-high of $46.40 from $33.20. The analyst boasts a bullish view for China’s NEV segment and thinks that this business features a much better solution cycle on 2021.
Chung reiterated a purchase rating for Nio influenced by (1) strong purchase backlog (1-5-1.8 month quantity) with higher margin visibility; (two) 3Q20E gross processing margin apt to attain 13 16 % amount, followed by 4Q20E disgusting processing margin during 22-25 % level; (3) increase in advertise share; (four) battery price reduction; and (5) policy tailwind relevant to exports.
Shares in addition rose sticking to unconfirmed media reports which Nio is actually entering the European market together with the launch of its ES8 and ES6 styles next year. And also preceding this week Nio provided an internet business replace, that suggested that a business’s EV deliveries doubled Y/Y to 5,055 contained October. It can bring Nio’s absolute year-to-date deliveries in 2020 to 31,430, reflecting a 111.4 % growing.
All eyes are set in place on Nio’s future 3Q consequences slated on Nov. seventeen. Last month, the business found which its vehicle deliveries surged 154.3 % Y/Y to 12,206 inside 3Q. (See NIO stock evaluation on TipRanks)
With shares rising by an astounding 838 % year-to-date, the average analyst price aim of $25.69 implies a drawback potential of about 32 % inside the upcoming weeks. The Street is cautiously optimistic on Nio. A Moderate Buy analyst opinion for the stock is founded on 6 Buys as opposed to 3 Holds and one Sell.

He is said to be “clinically stable, with no serious symptoms”.
The health minister said they are working on identifying people the patient might have contacted since entering Nigeria.
This is the first case of the virus in sub-Saharan Africa.


I actually finished this last Saturday, but with the time it takes to dry after blocking and the fact that it is winter I couldn't get a good shot until this morning. I've already worn it to work - it fits perfectly. The color is really hard to get right in these photos. This shot is pretty close, but is still a little too blue.
The close up of the shoulder is definitely too blue, but it was the best I could do, even with correcting the color.
I wanted to show how beautifully the top-down set in sleeve joins with the body of the sweater. The instructions in Barbara Walker's book Knitting from the Top tell you to figure out how many stitches you need at the top of your sleeve and then figure out how to pick that many stitches evenly around your armhole edge. But I don't do that. Instead I pick up stitches evenly around the armhole - every other row, and one stitch for each bound off stitch in the underarm, and whatever I end up with is what I start out with for the size of my sleeve. I figure that this gives me a better fit between the armhole opening and the top of the sleeve. So far I have always ended up with more stitches for the sleeve than what the pattern calls for (typically on the order of about an inch extra), but this is fine as I like my sleeves a little roomier.

Daniel Jones weighed 220 as a rookie. He weighs closer to 230 now.
“He will look more cut-up,’’ private quarterbacks trainer Anthony Boone told Paul Schwartz of The Post.
Boone works for QB Country and worked exclusively with Jones this offseason, estimating the two have gotten together 20 times.
Jones returned home to Charlotte, North Carolina, after his rookie season, increasing his lifting regime to get bigger and stronger while not eating “a lot of crap” at the table with his parents, two sisters and one brother.
“He’s done a good job of putting together a good physique,’’ Boone told Schwartz. “At the end of the day, he wanted to get stronger and get a little more meat on his bones but still maintain being able to run and move around and being on the field the whole time. Not ‘I’ve put on too much weight and I get short-winded now.’ His thing was make sure he could stay mobile, agile and be out on the field the whole time.’’
The Giants head coach, offensive coordinator and offense are new. Jones hopes to be improved.

PESHAWAR, 21 November — Prime Minister Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Mahmood Khan on Saturday ordered the Department of Energy and Power to ensure that all ongoing power projects are completed on time and to progress proposed projects according to the given timelines.
He expressed these views when he chaired a progress review meeting of the Department of Energy and Power the other day.
KP CM described the establishment of the Provincial Transmission and Shipping Company as an important step of the provincial government towards power-related issues and ordered the relevant authorities to start the recruitment process for the company as soon as possible so that the company without any delay can be established.
The participants in the meeting on the progress made so far with power projects in the province were informed that a total of eight projects are reflected in the Annual Development Program 2020-21, six of which were approved by the competent forum, while PC-1s from the remaining two were prepared and submitted for approval.
The bid was received for a 300 MW Balakot hydropower project worth Rs 4352 million, and construction is expected to start by February 20221, while 93 percent of work on phase 1 of the 356 mini-hydropower project has already been completed.
The meeting was further informed that progress with the 88 MW Gabral hydropower project and the 157 MW Madayan hydropower project will be ensured according to the specified timelines, while the civil and mechanical work on the 17 MW Ranolia power project is completed.
He said 60 percent civilian work on the 84 MW Gorkin Matiltan power project and 97 percent civilian work on the 10 MW Jabori power project had been completed.
The meeting announced that the pioneering work of the 10.5 MW Chapri Charkhel power project in the Kurram district would be carried out in January 2021 and the project would be completed with an estimated cost of Rs. 4378 million.
With regard to the establishment of the Provincial Transmission and Shipping Company, it has been approved that the feasibility study has been prepared and submitted to the relevant forum, and it is expected that the license for the establishment of the company will be issued by NEPRA next month.
As for the zoning project of the department, it has been notified that the contract has been awarded for the zoning of 8000 public schools in the province, while the contract for the zoning of 187 basic health units will be awarded soon.
He added that progress was being made with the solar electrification of 4000 mosques in the province according to the given timelines.
The meeting, among others, was attended by CM Energy Adviser Himayatullah Khan and Energy and Power Secretary Muhammad Zubair.
Representatives of Pakhtunkhwa Energy Development Organization (PEDO) and other quarters involved were also present at the event.
