Construction may see degrowth of -6.5% in FY2021
Forecast for GDP growth now -6.4 per cent for FY2021: CARE Ratings. July 2020
Under the mandala of a mellow British sun the colour of magic being wrought upon brown earth is a bright flaming yellow. These are the JCB excavators, backhoe loaders, telescopic handlers, wheeled loading shovels, articulated dump trucks and forklifts in action. We are at a test site at Plumpton on the fringe of the West Midlands brewery town of Rochester, which is also the global headquarters of the legendary digger manufacturer JC Bamford, which recently celebrated the production of its one millionth machine - a 22 tonne JS 220 tracked excavator in shimmering silver.
Over 2500 dealers, customers and the world media have been in attendance at the new product presentations and performance displays of JCB machines. To top it all, in what is a first for the company, the press has been made privy to a top secret innovation facility.
The production landmark itself merits being etched in letters of gold. For one million machines translate to lining up JCB's metal goliaths from the United Kingdom to Australia. And indeed that is a huge geographical spread which underlines the global reach of the equipment manufacturer who has left its imprimatur on the construction and agricultural business since 1945.
Just to correct any wrong impression. This piece is not just about great history - JCB, anyway, is that and more. That the British manufacturer reached the landmark product development statistic of one million is not being gloated over with satisfaction by its minders. Also the fact that the feat took all of 68 years - incredibly enough a third of those machines have been produced in the last six years - is not lost upon them. The promise now of delivering a similar next installment of yellow products in the next ten or so years, is testimonial to both ambition and aggression.
But JCB Chairman Sir Anthony Bamford is however predisposed to British understatement, "Given our continuing growth, JCB's two millionth machine will be produced in considerably less time."
It is not difficult to admire a gung ho spirit which seems effortless, and is so very matter of fact.
If JCB weren't a private enterprise many would have been tempted to dub its growth surge as Britain's Second Industrial Coming. Indeed, JCB is one of the great symbols of British manufacturing, an area of development which has seen a progressive low in recent years, and there is solid global evidence to back this. With 22 factories, eleven of them abroad, JCB is third biggest manufacturer by volume of earthmoving machinery in the world after Caterpillar and Komatsu.
Understandably therefore, half a world away, in India, JCB occupies pride of place: it is the number one brand - many would dub it 'King' when it came to construction equipment. It is, in a sense, an extension of Empire in a more benevolent, eminently likeable, and more development friendly form. It is easy to see why Sir Anthony, an early bird who began his operations in the country in 1978, persists with his romantic dalliance, and is wont to trill, "In India, we are regarded as an Indian company."
This is no idle boast. In many ways across India a JCB is a machine of choice - and in some cases is a lifesaver. It was a JCB that proved to be a saviour for Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister during the flash floods that enveloped the Himalayan state last month.
Innovation is the new mantra for JCB as it outlines its future strategies for world markets, of which India - largely backhoe and telescopic handler country - is a very key player.
Graeme Macdonald, Chief Executive Officer - Designate, JCB, says, "India will play a huge role in that innovative push as we move ahead. We are partners in the India growth story and our investments and strategies are very much in alignment with the country's development surge forward."
Ergo, the month of May saw the laying of the foundation stone of JCB's fourth manufacturing plant at Jaipur at an estimated cost of Rs 500 crore. The 115 acre site, coming up on the high growth Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor, and bolstered by existing facilities - two at Ballabgarh near Faridabad and one at Pune - will drive innovation further with the launch of new products in the JCB yellow products range and propel India as a major global sourcing centre. The facility is slated for a phase one opening next year.
With there being a huge need for infrastructure development and increasing urbanisation across India, equipment manufacturing firms like JCB will end up supplying more to the rural areas to offset the labor that has moved to cities. The demand therefore is expected to be huge. India is already on its way to becoming a major global sourcing hub for the digger maker. Currently backhoes, excavators and other equipment are being exported to Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Africa.
Tim Burnhope, Chief Innovation Officer, JCB, explains, "With high volume production out of India and the fact that we now produce the JCB engine there, it is a great export market. It is a perfect central location. Our exports are based on great production quality, and design testing done there. The machines are being designed for the climate and environments to which they are destined and will address challenges like temperature differences, ground conditions and so on."
Innovation and Investment
JCB's mantra for both the present and the future is very clearly spelt 'Innovation', both in terms of product and processes. The company's current approximate spend on innovation is to the tune of £150 million. ''Innovation is not just company policy it is part of JCB's lifeblood and that is what makes us stay ahead of the competition," avers Macdonald.
Innovation has also found another solid partner in investment. JCB's investment in new plants, products and customer support continues to underpin future growth, with the opening in September 2012 of a new £63 million purpose-built factory in Brazil to manufacture backhoe loaders and large excavators. Other recent investments include £62 million in a fourth factory in Jaipur and a £36 million extension to its backhoe loader plant at Ballabgarh outside New Delhi - which is now the largest backhoe loader factory anywhere in the world - a £40 million JCB Heavy Products factory in Uttoxeter, Staffordshire; £40 million to design, develop and manufacture a completely new range of 17 skid steer loaders and compact tracked loaders at its plant in North America; and around £80 million for the development of the JCB Ecomax T4 engine in readiness for incoming Tier 4 interim emissions legislation for mid-range machines. Earlier in December 2011, JCB announced its intention to invest £31 million over a three-year period to develop new engine technology to support its product range from 2015 onwards.
The leap in innovation has seen the company in just over eight years catapulting from a new entrant to engine manufacturing to a major global producer with a reputation for fuel efficiency and innovation. The first engine rolled off the production line in the UK in November 2004 and since then production has also extended to JCB India's Ballabgarh plant, where the first engine was manufactured in 2011. To date more than 250,000 engines have been produced globally. JCB has now announced plans to produce production of six cylinder engines with the addition of the JCB Dieselmax 672 to its engine line-up.
But with competitors edging closer there are challenges to be met. Says Michael Mohan, Group Engineering Director, JCB. "We are not complacent. We are investing considerably in India on innovation and will be on our toes to ensure that we keep offering customers the best solutions, something that is different from that of our competitors in terms of productivity and fuel efficiency."
Very obviously, despite their outstanding success, JCB's minders remain rooted to terra firma as they chart the progress of the yellow products across the globe.
The British hunger for the sun still remains but the scorching pace will ensure that there will be no basking under it.

Yesterday I took a couple hours off work to film Braggin' Rights, a local sports trivia competition on Metro Sports. I didn't know what to expect.
It was a blast!
On television it looks like this. If you don't feel like clicking, there are two teams--a guest team (us) and "The Posse" (sports guys/ringers). The other team isn't present; we are taped at different times and locations.
After both teams are introduced, a question appears on the TV. They show us giving our answer, then the Posse gives it a try, then the correct answer is revealed. Each episode is ten questions long, and we taped four total episodes that will run on consecutive days (probably next month).
The actual taping simply consisted of us being asked all 40 questions in succession. The rest is editing.
We talked a lot of the questions out and came up with the right answer more often than not. In fact, we scored a more-than-respectable 34 out of 40. That may not be enough to unseat the Posse, but we definitely didn't embarass ourselves.
I'm really eager to see how this turns out.

Some of such women are housewives while others have a substitute occupation. It is the most widely recognized to discover air masters filling in as escorts low maintenance.
While the reality of the matter is that a lot of escorts works on different occupations too, however, it is likewise genuine that you will probably discover air master working low maintenance as escorts in Pakistan. Thus, as you would envision, these are among the best Karachi Escorts out there, who have dependably sought after. They are constantly sharp looking and attractive.

From an expert air entertainer, you would expect somebody is shrewd, looks great and has an incredible identity. This is the reason air lady is so extraordinary as Pakistani autonomous escorts. They as of now have the characteristics of a Vip Lahore Girls high-class escort. Along these lines, even the offices enlisting them wouldn't need to invest additional exertion for preparing them.

A frightening phantom dominates the yemeni southern and eastern provinces since the UAE invasion and occupation forces controlled them , and despite aggression's media claims of the liberation of these provinces, they are all under the torture whip of UAE , no way to escape the death nor to be a way of being tortured .
These provinces witness security chaos and all are in the circle of targeting.

DUBLIN, Ohio -- Olentangy Liberty continued to build on an outstanding victory against Pickerington North this weekend by knocking off a red hot Dublin Jerome team 57-48 on Tuesday, snapping the Celtics six game win streak.
While the Patriots did reign victorious, it was a hard fought match up from the tip as Dublin Jerome controlled the first quarter, leading 12-6 after one.
Most of their success was centered around taking away star senior Ben Roderick, who saw blitz's on ball screens, double teams in the post, and a swarm of crashing help defenders every time he drove into the lane. The Celtics were adamant on not getting beat by the areas second leading scorer.
Jerome received early scoring contributions from the senior duo of Matthew Montgomery and Joey Pickering, who combined for 10 points. This left the Patriots scrambling to find secondary scoring that was not provided early.
After a tough first quarter, Liberty finally found the spark they needed without Roderick who was sidelined for a period in the second quarter with foul trouble. Senior wing Nick Nakasian and sophomore guard Henry Hinkle combined for 11 of their 16 second quarter points.
Despite outscoring Dublin Jerome in this quarter, the full court zone press of the Celtics started to make a major difference. This was a clear issue as Liberty's guards are not ideal ball handlers with elite size to see the openings over top of the press, which resulted in lost possessions, missed opportunities, and the occasional easy bucket for the Celtics who were still holding onto a 23-22 lead at halftime.
It was only a matter of time before Roderick started to get into the game for the Patriots, however.
After a perfectly executed first half gameplan, the senior wing erupted for 11 of his game high 20 points in the third quarter as he thrived in transition and attacking closeouts in the weak side corner out of the Jerome full court zone press. Roderick's surge, combined with a sloppy third quarter where the Celtics committed a few turnovers and missed quality open looks resulted in a 40-32 Liberty lead heading into the last quarter.
The resiliency of the gritty Jerome team should never be questioned as they surged back into the game early in the fourth. After a huge early run by senior forward Trey Ballengee and junior guard Dan Lee, the deficit was cut to one as the Patriots were forced to call a timeout. As the fourth quarter continued, Liberty slowly scraped their way ahead inch by inch, leading by seven with 2:41 left.
After a pair of missed free throws and a possession that milked nearly a minute off the clock, Hinkle finished with at the rim through contact drawing the foul call and demoralizing the home crowds spirit as the Patriots led by 11 with 1:40. After a few free throws the game ended with a final score of 57-48
Dublin Jerome now moves to 10-5 on the season, but they are not discouraged by this tough loss.
"It was a great learning experience and litmus test," Dublin Jerome coach Richie Beard said. "We know we can compete and win a district title, but our attention to detail and grittiness must be elite for us to accomplish that. We were just a little short."
The Celtics will look to recover against Hilliard Darby on Friday, and look for them to continue to make some noise throughout the end of the season. They are an incredibly well coached team with talented players that can expose a ton of matchup problems with a majority of their roster being 6-foot-1 to 6-foot-5 with great frames and versatility on both sides of the ball.
Olentangy Liberty now moves to 13-4 on the season and remains one of the top Division I teams in the area and should continue to build onto their impressive resume on Friday at Westerville North.
Nick Nakasian (6'3 WF / Olentangy Liberty / 2019): Nakasian was incredible tonight. Finishing with 16 points, the Carnegie Mellon commit was more impressive as a passer than a scorer. Early on in the game, he was able to attack the zone looks from Jerome off spots ups and made quick decisions once getting into the lane to find open cutters. Continuing to make one exceptional low usage pass after another to create good looks for his teammates or initiate ball movement, he also made a few backdoor cuts within the zone leading to a dunk and easy layups.
I'm a big fan of Nakasian's game and look forward to keeping an eye on his collegiate career. His style of play should allow him to be a player that can thrive in an off ball role once he develops a more consistent shooting stroke. As a solid athlete with exceptional leaping explosion, I would like to see him continue to develop as a mover laterally to make him more of an on ball threat defensively. The senior already showcases a wide array of valuable on ball skill, and his passing vision and decision making off the dribble should make him a productive collegiate wing.
Trey Ballengee (6'4 WF / Dublin Jerome / 2019): Ballengee led the Celtics in scoring with 17 points. The senior wing possesses an intriguing set of skills at 6-foot-4 with the strength of a collegiate four to pair with a good handle, and burst off the dribble. This can cause a lot of mismatches for opposing teams like we saw today where he was switched onto a smaller Liberty guard on a ball screen and just backed him down for an easy layup. Another player that stood out for his passing prowess, the forward did an outstanding job of reading the weak side of the floor once driving into the lane. One beautiful read stood out in particularly, where Ballengee drove baseline as the help took away the simple opposite corner read, he whipped the ball over to the weak side wing for a wide open three. He also has the movement ability with his size and strength to become a versatile defender in the future.
As a slashing wing with a great feel for the floor as a passer, Ballengee would likely thrive best in an uptempo collegiate system where he could add potential value as both a transition handler on grab and go's and a transition finisher converting shots at the rim off significant momentum and applying his athletic tools. I'd like to see him continue to develop his decision making as ball handler, along with off the ball on the defensive end of the floor. Regardless, he is a player that Division III's and NAIA's should be in touch with immediately.

Toronto, Ontario -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/07/2012 -- The consumer financial services market is one of the most competitive in the world, especially in Scandinavian countries like Norway. Banks and other financial services companies compete incredibly hard in order to gain custom for products like credit cards and consumer loans. Despite this, consumers can occasionally have difficulties finding the right loan for them. The key to solving this problem is knowledge. The more educated consumers are about the financial services market, the better deals they can find.
One Norwegian financial services website that has been getting a lot of attention recently is KredittKortGuide.no. This site has built a huge reputation for helping consumers learn more about what is available to them in the Norwegian financial services market and guiding them towards the best possible deal. Although initially intended purely for the domestic market the site has gained a large following among Norwegians living in North America.
The site contains a huge number of details about the various credit cards available to people living in Norway, as well as information about various types of loans. Each financial services offering is carefully graded in an impartial way, in order to provide maximum value for the consumer.
The site rates financial services from both large name banks and more niche providers, including Bank Norwegian, Santander and Real Finans.
There is also a section that deals specifically with credit cards that give a discount on petrol. Petrol is particularly expensive in Norway, and it makes up a large proportion of consumer expenditure. This makes the money saving information on KredittKortGuide.no particularly valuable for Norwegian consumers.
A spokesperson for the site said: "It's insane how many people in Norway are paying far too much on their credit card interest, loan repayments and fuel. Most people simply aren't aware of the huge range of deals out there. Shopping around can be incredibly time consuming and difficult to fit into a busy lifestyle. Here at KredittKortGuide.no, we've put together a full rundown of credit card, small loans and consumer loans available in Norway. We've carefully examined each offering, with the aim of giving our site visitors an impartial guide to the state of the financial services market in Norway today. KredittKortGuide.no is a comprehensive source of credit card and loan information, and our aim is for consumers to use the site to get the very best deal possible."

LEWISTON, Maine – No. 2/2 Amherst College's Ali Doswell '17 became the program's all-time leading scorer and all-time leader in career three-pointers made as the Purple & White scored a staggering 33 points in the first quarter to highlight a 75-37 victory over NESCAC rival Bates College Friday evening in Lewiston, Maine.
With the win, Amherst improves to 21-0 overall, 7-0 in NESCAC action, while Bates moves to 6-14 on the season, 2-6 in league play. The Purple & White travel to No. 1/1 Tufts University tomorrow afternoon in Medford, Mass.
In Amherst's dominating first quarter of play, the Purple & White hit on 14-of-19 shots including a 14-point effort from Meredith Doswell '17, and five points each from Emma McCarthy '19 and Ali Doswell who tied the program's all-time scoring mark in the first period. The visitors were also 4-for-7 from three-point range (57.1%) as Ali Doswell tied that mark as well in the opening 10 minutes of play.
A back-and-forth second quarter saw both teams score 13 points as Allie Coppola led Bates with six points, while McCarthy scored four to lead Amherst, as the Purple & White held a commanding, 46-22 lead at intermission.
Ali Doswell broke both the scoring, and three-pointer record with her first shot of the third quarter as Amherst outscored the Bobcats, 19-9 in the frame. Jackie Nagle '17 chipped in six points on 3-for-4 shooting in the stanza, while Bernadette Connors accounted for four points for Bates.
Maeve McNamara '19 highlighted the fourth quarter for the visitors, scoring five points, while Cam Hendricks '20 and Hannah Fox '20 followed with three and two points respectively to help Amherst close out its convincing win.
- Meredith Doswell finished with a game-high 17 points on 7-of-10 shooting including a 3-for-4 effort from three-point range, while McCarthy chipped in 11 points on 5-for-6 efficiency from the field.
- Off the bench, McNamara and Nagle provided 12 points each as McNamara scored a collegiate-career high on 5-of-6 shooting including a pair of treys.
- Hendricks added a game-high seven rebounds off the bench, while Nagle collected six boards. Meredith Doswell dished out six assists and notched three steals, while JJ Daniell '19 added four assists in the winning effort.

AUSTIN (KXAN) — As more and more people move to Austin, we've seen many changes to historic neighborhoods, one of them being East Austin.
For many, the area of 12th and Chicon Streets looks totally different than what it was less than a decade ago. In the early years, the area was a thriving business corridor but the area became overrun with drugs and prostitution during the '90s and continued to stay that way until recently. In 2011, there were more than 1,000 reported crimes within 1,000 feet of the intersection of the infamous 12th and Chicon. So far this year, there have been 144 reported crimes.
Many long-time residents say while they're happy to see the changes, they don't want the community to forget what East Austin was and how it's changed.
"People of color existed on this side of 35, in this pocket of the city, was very much by design… it was a result of segregation," says Natasha Madison, longtime East Austin resident and community ambassador for Urban Co-Lab, a space for growing entrepreneurs.
She says East Austin is rich in history. "I grew up in this area, we went to Givens Park every Sunday. We went to Sam's Barbeque with my mother."
Many of the original families living in the area no longer call this area home.
"We all know that the black population in East Austin is dwindling and a lot of the people who would otherwise be residents of East Austin are now residents of Manor or Pflugerville, Round Rock, Kyle, Buda," Madison says.
While the community has changed, there's now a push to rediscover East 12th Street.
"So rediscovering in a sense has to do with how many of us, of "us" meaning people who are familiar with this area in a way that's very personal, how many of us can we get together to come back and get together like the old days," says Madison.
A festival will celebrate the old while embracing the new.
"I'm proud to be from this area, and maybe as importantly, I'm very proud to be a part of developing the future of this area and making sure that the future of this area acknowledges and fully embraces the past."
The Return and Discover East Austin Festival runs from 11 a.m. until 5 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 10 at 12th and Chicon. There will be food, crafts and fun for the whole family.

Grow your own
This strikes me as kind of odd, but maybe it is not. In a recent poll
, we asked providers the following question: Do you use special events like World COPD Day and Breast Cancer Awareness Month to promote your business and product offerings?
How many do you think said they did?
Alien dvd The answer: 9%.
Granted, the results probably do not qualify as statistically valid. Sixteen providers logged onto the poll but only 11 answered it. Of those 11, 10 said they did no marketing around special events like World COPD Day.
Ten out of 11 do nothing. Huh (duh?). I would have expected, at a minimum, that the results would have broken down 50/50. It seems logical that providers would take advantage of such an obvious opportunity to promote their business and services, to draw public attention to these chronic disease states and the HME therapies available. Doesn't that sound like a good thing to do?
Like I said, this is not a statistically valid or scientific study, but it is, nonetheless, troublesome. It reconfirms that a lot of HME providers don't understand the new consumer-based healthcare paradigm. In case you haven't heard: Consumers want information that helps them make decisions. If you're not tapped into this, you're missing a great opportunity.
Good Luck Chuck hd The days of simply relying on referral sources for business are gradually diminishing in importance. As reimbursement declines, the industry must offset that by growing the market. You do that by educating consumers about COPD and other chronic disease states—sleep disordered breathing and obesity, for example. You've got to believe that a lot Medicare beneficiaries as well as younger folks have these chronic diseases but, for a variety of reason, have not sought medical help. One reason, I suspect, is because they don't know help exists; they don't know what products are available, who makes them or who provides them. Do you think the pharmaceutical industry would allow this situation to continue? No way. They'd start licking their chops over all the business to be had.
The bottom line: Cultivate referral sources but also grow the market. Feed the pipeline.

Make Better Leadership Decisions Using Leadercast NOW
Take an Inside-Out Approach to Goal Setting
Do you look within yourself before making plans for your future?
Robbi Crawford—professional mentor, sociologist, speaker and author—recommends both her students and leaders take an inside-out approach to setting their goals.
"It's so important to meet each student where he or she is," shares Robbi. "I start with an inside-out approach that starts with the student. Where are you? Assessing where you are, who you want to be, what you want to do, what you want to contribute, all of that is really important."
Watch the video to learn more about this inside-out approach to goal-setting and apply it as you make plans for you and your team's futures.
I like to talk to students about presence and how powerful our presence is. And when we're not sure who we are and what we want, we don't tend to come off with a powerful presence. In other words, our body language, our voice, how strong we are and what we want to say, asking questions, feeling empowered to go for what we don't see.
One of my analogies is it's like a buffet. We're presented with a buffet and maybe there are four or five things on there and you're told, you're pretty much conditioned to believe this is what you choose from. And I'm like, "OK. I want you to say, 'This is who I am and I really want this, and I don't see that on the buffet. Where can I go get that?'" And I don't think always students are strong enough to think, especially students who may come from populations where they grew up in abuse or neglect. They don't have that kind of personal empowerment. They don't have that kind of confidence to ask for what they want and then to go for it, [unapologetically].
And I think that's one of the big benefits is when you take this inward-out approach, because you're clear on who you are, and I like to even call it their natural rhythm, when you understand what your natural rhythm is from a mental perspective, from an emotional perspective, a physical perspective, spiritual perspective. And even your environment, understanding the kind of environments you flourish in, when you understand what your natural rhythm is, it just makes you feel so much more confident to go after what you want in life.

Company Expands in Avilla's New East Industrial Park
(Article shared with permission, courtesy of KPC Media Group. Written by, and photo by Andy Barrand, published 9/4/19).
AVILLA — With the ceremonial turning of a shovel of dirt Tuesday afternoon work unofficially began on a new 47,500-square-foot facility in Avilla's east industrial park.
The building located a half-mile east from the intersection of S.R. 8 and S.R. 3 will be the future home of McLaughlin Furnace Group, which currently operates out of a building in Avilla's west industrial park.
Owner Jeff McLaughlin said construction on the project is set to begin within a week, with hopes of being in the building by March or April of 2020.
The new construction is the first of what town officials hope will be many.
"McLaughlin Furnace Group has been a good employer," said Paul Shepherd, Avilla Town Council President. "We are glad to have them, they continue to grow with us."
The new industrial park is 80-acres, bids are currently being taken for an entrance drive into the park off of S.R. 8.
Avilla purchased the 80 acres of ground for $415,000 in 2015 when the town realized its industrial park just off the west side of S.R. 3 was full. Since then, the town has been planning future development in the area, including extending utilities to the east to make the land ready for growth.
Despite being one of Noble County's smaller communities, Avilla is home to several significant industrial firms. It's location on S.R. 3 about 8 miles west of Interstate 69 access in DeKalb County or about 15 miles from Fort Wayne's north side, along with nearby railroad access, have positioned the town well over the years to grow an industrial sector.
Shepherd hopes that the new construction will help to attract other businesses to the park.
McLaughlin Furnace Group uses cutting-edge technology in producing heat-treating furnaces for industry world-wide.
McLaughlin described his business as a one-stop shop for industrial facilities. The company custom builds and designs furnaces for business along with providing service and maintenance.
The facility currently produces furnaces for a wide variety of industries including the military, the coal mining industry and more.
"A lot of people don't realize how important industrial furnaces are to industry," he said.
Later this week McLaughlin is meeting with representatives from SpaceX before traveling to Vietnam to work with a client.
McLaughlin said the new facility will provide his company with the space it needs to help his business run more effectively and efficiently.
The new facility will include new offices, break room and workout facility for employees, while tripling the facility's workshop space.
McLaughlin Furnace Group currently employees 42 people, with hopes of hiring 15-30 new employees within the next five years.
"We needed this expansion for awhile," McLaughlin said. "Avilla has been great to work with. There are a lot of good things going on in the community."
Leatherman Construction and Eshelman Excavating will be doing the work on the new building.

Maino Spins Grit into Gold
One of Maino's strongest assets is his authenticity—his street credibility, which is on full display in YouTube videos featuring the promising young rapper. But the man behind the 2008 hit "Hi Hater" isn't just marketing chutzpah. Maino's story is an inspirational one, detailing a climb from hardscrabble beginnings.
Jermaine "Maino" Coleman grew up in Brooklyn's tough Bed-Stuy, where he witnessed the crack epidemic firsthand. Both his parents succumbed to drug addictions, leaving the barely teenaged boy to care for himself and younger brother. Petty crimes evolved into bigger ones, and by the early 1990s Maino was serving a 10-year sentence for a drug-related kidnapping. ""I just started rapping as something to do," he has said. "I feel like hip-hop kept me alive."
After his release in 2003, Maino started Hustle Hard Entertainment, and landed a radio appearance after a chance meeting with DJ Kay Slay. Guest mixtape spots followed, and a performance on the underground sensation Smack DVD was among the cameos that landed him a deal with Universal Records.
But Maino and Universal split in 2007. Through T.I., Maino moved to Atlantic Records, which released If Tomorrow Comes… in 2009. Though it features A-listers including Swizz Beatz and Just Blaze, Maino held his own with his first single, the bouncy "Hi Hater." A summer anthem during 2008, "Hi Hater" peaked on three Billboard charts, hitting # 8 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 and #16 on the Billboard Hot Rap Tracks.
Then he outdid himself with follow-up "All the Above," featuring T-Pain. The song became Maino's first to hit the Billboard Hot 100 and went gold. His third single, "Million Bucks" featuring Swizz Beatz, was released in June.
Equal parts charm, grit and swagger, Maino promises to deliver more portraits of his rugged reality.

I see some people in online comments are taking issue with the country of origin of my breakfast jam. Of course I support Washington raspberry farmers. I believe our agricultural industry in Washington is poised to boom. As living standards rise around the world, the first thing people want to improve is the quality of their food. With productive wheat fields, nutritious potatoes, world-class fruit and specialty crops, and the most productive dairy cows in the nation, our state is producing the foods Washington residents and the world want and need.
To meet our potential, the state needs to work with farmers to ensure they have the water they need to grow the crops, and the infrastructure in place to get those crops to our in-state and export markets. Farmers trying to make a profit and build their business for the next generation need regulatory certainty so they can focus on the future. And the federal government needs to finally provide reforms that will ensure a stable, legal farm workforce.
Washington agriculture is a critical component of our state economy. Food and food processing make up 12% of the economy, and over 18% of our exports are ag products. Raspberries are crucial to Cascadia agriculture, and I will do everything in my power to make sure it stays that way. My jam choice should reflect this stance, and I intend to change it.

Researchers cast neural nets to simulate molecular motion
Happy Wednesday, friends Worldwide from Dr. TJ Gunn in Houston Texas….
by Los Alamos National Laboratory / Phys.org
New work from Los Alamos National Laboratory, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and the University of Florida is showing that artificial neural nets can be trained to encode quantum mechanical laws to describe the motions of molecules, supercharging simulations potentially across a broad range of fields.
"This means we can now model materials and molecular dynamics billions of times faster compared to conventional quantum methods, while retaining the same level of accuracy," said Justin Smith, Los Alamos physicist and Metropolis Fellow in the laboratory's Theoretical Division. Understanding how molecules move is critical to tapping their potential value for drug development, protein simulations and reactive chemistry, for example, and both quantum mechanics and experimental (empirical) methods feed into the simulations.
The new technique, called the ANI-1ccx potential, promises to advance the capabilities of researchers in many fields and improve the accuracy of machine learning-based potentials in future studies of metal alloys and detonation physics.
Quantum mechanical (QM) algorithms, used on classical computers, can accurately describe the mechanical motions of a compound in its operational environment. But QM scales very poorly with varying molecular sizes, severely limiting the scope of possible simulations. Even a slight increase in molecular size within a simulation can dramatically increase the computational burden. So practitioners often resort to using empirical information, which describes the motion of atoms in terms of classical physics and Newton's Laws, enabling simulations that scale to billions of atoms or millions of chemical compounds.
Traditionally, empirical potentials have had to strike a tradeoff between accuracy and transferability. When the many parameters of the potential are finely tuned for one compound, the accuracy decreases on other compounds.
Instead, the Los Alamos team, with the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and University of Florida, has developed a machine learning approach called transfer learning that lets them build empirical potentials by learning from data collected about millions of other compounds. The new approach with the machine learning empirical potential can be applied to new molecules in milliseconds, enabling research into a far greater number of compounds over much longer timescales.

Too Pretty Not to Share No. 4
Hello friends!
How's your week? I had some technical difficulties with another post I was working on for today, so I'm sharing this picture instead. These tulip petals were waiting on my kitchen counter when I went downstairs this morning. And when Sofia requested tea (yes, really, she kills me!) with her breakfast this morning, I served it in her great grandmother's demitasse cup.
A friend made my day when she commented on this picture on Instagram:
"I love your stunning pics, Amy. You should produce a photo coffee table book 'explosions of color!'"
What a fun project that would be!
I hope to be back up and running with another colorful post tomorrow!

In 1905, Pablo Picasso visited the studio of Spanish painter Ignacio Zuloaga. He was so intrigued by what he saw there that he returned time and again over the next two years until he finally produced the piece that his trips had inspired.
Les Demoiselles d'Avignon was the first Picasso that radically departed from a traditional style and set the stage for the creation of the Cubist movement.
But it wasn't the Spanish artist's work that had caught the budding Cubist's eye. Zuloaga liked to surround himself with the art of his idols, and the white walls of his studio were covered "with canvases which he prizes above all else in the world, all saving his wife, his daughter Lucia and son Antonio," according to a 1917 article in the Fine Arts Journal.

First, Do No Harm, Right?
Mollie Walker Freeman ♦ March 7, 2014 ♦ Leave a comment
The Hippocratic Oath has long been revered for it's wisdom. It is my contention, knowing personally a few doctors, and having conversed with far too many, besides, that most doctors are in their profession to actually help people. Of course, we may ask ourselves how we could ever know this for sure. In certain circles today, the motives of medical doctors are being harshly questioned. People are fed up! I get it.
Studies and statistics, I have observed, can be used to "prove" almost any theory. However, lots of folks are suffering at the hands of the ones who are supposed to be helping. During my schooling to become certified as a health coach, I heard from a well-known medical doctor that iatrogenic death was the 3d leading cause of death in the United States, and causes many more deaths worldwide. I was not familiar with this term – how could it possibly be so common?
Iatrogenic simply means "resulting from medical treatment." In 2000, a study was conducted by Dr. Barbara Starfield, a medical doctor with a Master's degree in public health. The study was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. For the study, the U.S. was compared with 12 other industrialized nations, and was found to rank last or nearly last in many important indicators. Perhaps the most disturbing of these were the findings around iatrogenic death, including 12,000 deaths a year from unnecessary surgeries and 106,000 from nonerror, adverse effects from medications. In all, about 225,000 deaths were due to iatrogenic causes. However, other sources think the number may be as high as 284,000. (See chriskresser.com)
In 2006, the Nutrition Institute of America ran an independent review of "government approved" medicine entitled,"Death by Medicine." The group was made up of such well-known physicians and professors as Gary Null, Carolyn Dean, and Martin Feldman. As a result of their research, they believe that only as many as 5 – 20% of iatrogenic deaths are reported, partly due to fear of lawsuits, and partly because codes for reporting these deaths do not even exist. They say that the numbers may be many times higher. (See "Death By Medicine")
I personally know a woman who had a breast removed due to "cancer," only to learn that she never had cancer in the first place. I know a man who was admitted into the ER with his wife, a registered nurse, telling staff that he was suffering from a heart attack. However, they were told that he was not having a heart attack and to settle down. In the morning, the shocked cardiologist exclaimed, "This man's in cardiac arrest!" – and had been all night long.
I have a client who was advised to have her gall bladder removed immediately. Due to insurance complications combined with a desire to try to treat without surgery, she postponed the surgery for a couple of months. A good thing, too, since 2 months later it was found that her gall bladder was perfectly healthy. She had a stomach ulcer.
We pretty much all know that our "health care" system needs help. That is not my point. The blame for our current state can be spread around, I think. Doctors are not perfect and do not have all the answers. Even when they may say that there is nothing further to be done, people often find ways to heal. (Check out this New York Times article "The Island Where People Forget To Die.) Why is that? I suspect that it is, in large part, a result of taking responsibility for one's own health.
We may not be able to do it alone. We need support, help, information. It would be great if businesses, schools, industry, the government and others would take responsibility to do what they can to make our collective health a priority. And, despite accusations of greed and selfish motives, many do attempt to do so. But let's think about it. No one can make you eat vegetables, sleep, drink water, or exercise. Most of the main factors that determine our health are controlled by ourselves.
And, even those monster-big scary organizations are made up of individual people. Sometimes, those people are affected by health challenges, and they also have to educate themselves and take responsibility for their own outcomes. Sometimes, those individuals end up participating in "bad" things while trying to do something good, like developing a drug to help people which ends up doing damage.
After some pretty bad experiences with doctors & hospitals during my formative years, I decided that it would be best for me and my children to stay out of the hospital and the doctor's office as much as possible. We have taken care of ourselves as best we can, as much as it depends upon us, and with good results. After raising 5 children to adulthood, I can only recall 3 emergency room visits. Other than childbirths and my husband's hernia surgery, we've avoided being hospitalized for 30 years. (And, I must say, by the grace of God!)
I have to note that when Scott went in for his hernia surgery, he received excellent care. I'm happy to know that doctors and hospitals are there if we need them in a true emergency.

Hyderabad: A recent survey by Cuemath found that children in school tend to face the highest amount of pressure to perform well in mathematics rather than any other subject.
The survey found that 89 per cent of parents believe math is the toughest subject for their kids yet 81 per cent said their child's performance in maths was most important. Around 77 per cent believed that math was not taught well in schools and 75 per cent saw tuitions as a must.
The survey considered a randomised set of over 1,000 parents in metros to gauge their awareness of 'maths anxiety.' While 68 per cent of parents were not aware of 'maths anxiety', 67 per cent were willing to take corrective measures.
"The problem is that maths is looked at as just a subject, not a life skill. Blackboard teaching and rote learning have created unnecessary hurdles," said Cuemath CEO and founder Manan Khurma.
"Seventy-nine per cent of parents said their child shows interest in solving maths-based activities like puzzles and Rubik's cube, a clear indication that an engaging and intuitive way of learning will generate more interest and curiosity from the child," he said.
Mr Khurma said maths anxiety stemmed from a lack of development of strong fundamentals. "To overcome this, early-stage math skills development is crucial," he said. "The recent move by HRD minister Prakash Javadekar to form a committee to tackle math phobia is thoughtful." Mr Chandrajeet Singh, a parent, said maths was not taught well in schools. "I spent time with my kid to see whether he understood the concept or not. To my surprise he did not and I had to explain it."...
