NEW YORK, February 28. /TASS/. Russian citizen Roman Seleznev, who was sentenced in the United States over cyber fraud charges, has been transferred to a prison in Butner, North Carolina, with milder conditions, his defense attorney Igor Litvak told TASS.
Earlier, Seleznev had been serving his 27-year sentence in the USP Atlanta, a medium-security US federal prison in Atlanta, Georgia. He was sent to the Butner federal correctional complex in late January.
"This is much better than in the USP Atlanta, they aren't comparable," the defense attorney stressed.
"This is considered to be a very good prison, with a good hospital. He can walk there, there is a library there, and people may go in for sports," Litvak said, noting that this facility is one of top ten federal prisons in the United States.
The only disadvantage of the new prison is that Seleznev has to register every two hours between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m.
"This is very tiresome for Roman, and we don't understand the reason for this. In this prison he is the only person, who has to undergo this program," Litvak said, stressing that there is no need for these measures. The prison's authorities unreasonably consider that the Russian citizen is a "very dangerous criminal," he noted.
Several times Seleznev was just one minute late when he registered and the authorities threatened to send him to a confinement cell. All attempts by the defense attorney to scrap this program have been in vain. "The only result so far is that they told Roman he would face worse conditions if we further challenged this."
Seleznev case
Roman Seleznev was detained at the international airport of the Republic of Maldives on July 5, 2014. On the same day, he was extradited to the island of Guam, an unincorporated territory of the United States. Guam's district court refused to release the Russian and handed down a decision to deport him to Seattle, where charges against him were brought.
US investigators suspected Seleznev of having intended to steal and sell information about US citizens' credit cards between October 2009 and February 2011. According to the investigators, the Russian national was involved in the theft of some 200,000 credit card numbers. In August 2016, Seleznev was found guilty on cyber crime counts. On April 21, 2017 he was sentenced to 27 years in prison and was ordered to pay $170 mln.
Moscow stresses that Seleznev was not arrested but "kidnapped" by the US authorities while the case against him is politically motivated.
In September 2017, prosecutors in the US state of Georgia, who also had brought charges against Seleznev, announced that the Russian citizen pleaded guilty to colluding to carry out a cyber attack against Worldpay, which provides payment services for banks. In Nevada, Seleznev was accused of having been involved in crimes since 2009 as part of the Carder Internet group. Its members committed computer crimes linked to stealing credit card numbers and personal information of banks' clients.
In December 2017, the US Justice Department announced that Seleznev was sentenced to another 14-year prison term based on charges in Georgia and Nevada. Seleznev will serve his sentence in parallel with his 27-year prison term.

You know I think I get more accomplished on nights when I can't sleep than any other time. In school that's when I got the majority studying done - papers written - homework finished. And it is also when I get work on projects done, too! I've been working on an album for Emma's first year and tonight I got another page finished - this page is the first time she tried baby cereal. She didn't know what to do it with it at first and would push the cereal out with her tongue, but eventually she got the hang of it!

Wilkin Family Crest
The English surname Wilkin is of patronymic origin meaning son of or descendent of Wilkin. The medieval personal name Wilkin was a pet form William. The name Wilkin is first recorded as a personal name in 1166, in the Northumberland Pipe Rolls, as "Wilechin". John Wilkins married Merget Martyn on April 15th 1541 at St. Michael Bassishaw, London, and on November 30th 1550, George Wilkins was christened at St. Andrew Hubbard, London. One John Wilkins and his wife appear as early settlers in the New World; they are listed as residents of "the Eastern Shore" in Virginia in February 1623.

The rapid development of technology allows terrorists to "even more actively" use the internet for "recruitment, attracting funds, hacking and other cybercrimes," the deputy secretary of Russia's Security Council, Yury Kokov, said at a security-themed event in the city of Ufa in central Russia.
The official said the internet has become the "main mechanism" for various extremists to "control their scattered forces and resources," while there are currently around 30,000 "extremist and terrorist websites" online.
This allows us to conclude that an age of technological and digital terrorism is approaching. In terms of consequences, [this type of terrorism] may be comparable to the weapons of mass destruction in the nearest future.

Kokov also highlighted the "unending attempts" of terrorists to gain access to "the data on making components of nuclear, chemical and biological" weaponry.
Another surprising tactic that he mentioned is that terrorist groups have begun training frogmen. Kokov said they use divers to "place mines in ports and seize civilian vessels, mostly oil tankers and gas freighters."

Approach Considerations
Prehospital care is primarily supportive, with appropriate attention paid to the ABCs (airway, breathing, circulation). Emergency department (ED) care is primarily supportive as well. [34]
The entire poisoning episode usually subsides in 6-8 hours; some symptoms may take up to several days to fully resolve. Benzodiazepines may be used for sedation and treatment of panic attacks, hallucinations, and seizures. Psychiatric consultation and evaluation may be needed for persistent psychotic symptoms. [1]
Supportive Measures
Symptomatic patients may be treated with supportive measures, including the following:
Consider gastric lavage if ingestion occurred within approximately 1 hour of presentation (though there are no data to support the efficacy of the procedure in this setting)
Consider oral administration of activated charcoal if the patient presents within 1 hour of ingestion [35] ; however, adsorption to activated charcoal has not been demonstrated for these constituents, [36] and there is no evidence that routine administration of multiple doses of activated charcoal is useful
Consider administering intravenous (IV) fluids if vomiting becomes prominent (a rare occurrence) or signs of volume depletion are present
Provide agitated patients with a quiet, nonthreatening environment.
Provide psychiatric care to patients with intentional ingestions and suicidal thinking
With good supportive care, most patients recover within 6-8 hours and may be discharged from the ED at that time, provided no complicating issues are present and they have a safe environment to which to return.
Pharmacologic Therapy
Most patients with poisoning due to ibotenic acid−containing mushrooms can be treated without medications. If patients are severely agitated, anxiolytics (eg, benzodiazepines) may be needed. For seizures lasting longer than 5 minutes, various anticonvulsants have been used. It should be kept in mind that respiratory depression has been reported when these agents are administered IV. Preparations must therefore be made to support the airway if necessary. [13]
Ipecac syrup should generally be avoided. Central nervous system (CNS) symptoms develop relatively rapidly after ingestion of ibotenic acid−containing mushrooms, and evidence for the effectiveness of ipecac in this setting is lacking.
With A muscaria poisoning, despite the implications of the species name, few muscarinic effects are observed; consequently, anticholinergic drugs such as atropine are rarely, if ever, needed.
Fever in this setting should not be treated with antipyretics; it is probably the result of agitation and increased motor activity.
Cautious mushroom hunters eat only 1 type of mushroom and save a sample in a dry paper bag for later identification, if needed. Identification of mushrooms is best left to experts. Prevention is achieved by eating only mushrooms that are commercially cultivated for human consumption. Mushrooms should be regularly removed from sites where children are routinely present.
A mycologist should be consulted to assist with mushroom identification. The regional poison control center may be contacted for consultation, referral, and, if necessary, assistance in mushroom identification. A nationwide telephone number, 1-800-222-1222, is available in the United States; calls to this number are automatically directed to the nearest poison control center. A mycologist can also be contacted through a mycology club, the North American Mycological Association (NAMA), a botanical garden, or a local university.
Consultation with a medical toxicologist may be helpful, if available. Consultation with a psychiatrist is advisable when the patient may have had suicidal intent.

I recently made a "JohnnyBox" for a friend.
While it isn't anywhere near being a complete collection, there are somewhere in the neighbourhood of twenty-five CDs in there, many without cases or proper cover art, which led to some fun when coming up with CD designs that allowed me to relay all of the pertinent information on the discs themselves. It also smells nice inside.
Because of the work involved, I rarely do this. But every once in a while it's fun to put a thing like this together. There's even a little ID tag on the bottom, in case the box ever tries to escape from its owner and ends up in the wrong hands. I'd decorate the outer shell, but I would just end up defiling it without intending to, and I kind of like the way it looks as-is.
And now for the main event. If you've been longing for a bloated collection of music that touches on some of my invisible adventures as a musical fish over the past almost-decade, you're in luck, because the long-in-development OUT-TAKES, MISFITS & OTHER THINGS compilation is just about finished. My sequencing ideas seem to be working well enough, the first and third discs are in finished form, and all that's left to do is finish mixing two more songs, hope the sequencing works out for the second disc, and then figure out how to package the thing.
I doubt it's something that will interest many people. We're talking about three hours of music and close to seventy songs here, and that's after being whittled down rather savagely from the insane collection it could have been. Even in scaled-down form, there's no way it can work as a proper album, and I'm not sure if anyone will have the stamina to listen to the whole thing in one sitting. But it felt like something that needed to be done.
I'm going to try and get it release-ready within the next month or so if I can. The main potential stumbling block is the booklet, which will be pretty thick, what with all the stories behind the songs. Worst case scenario, if no one wants to go to the trouble of making me something suitably hefty in booklet form, I'll just put all the info up here on the appropriate album page.
I need to write/record some more ukulele-based songs now that I have a uke that doesn't suffer from poor intonation. I also have an idea for a cover song I'm pretty excited about, though it might be difficult to incorporate into a proper album. Maybe I'll put it up here if it turns out well enough. I think it'll be pretty surprising. All I'm going to say about it right now is that it's a hit from the '80s that will be altered to the point of being almost unrecognizable, but the soul of it will still be left intact, albeit warped to suit my own purposes.

Since I am back in town full time I am starting to make some progress. I cut the legs to attain the seat slope listed in the Anarchist's Design Book but ended up cutting it a second time to take an additional 3/4 inch off the front two legs. I then pinned the crest rail tenons with bamboo skewers and trimmed them flush.
After a bit of sanding it was time to start the finishing process. I have been repainting the third bedroom in our house so all of my drop-cloths were already out upstairs so up we went. I had mixed ups some van-dyke crystal dye last year as mark of a test batch of finish so I used that
I was planning on the black on red milk-paint from the Chair-maker's notebook but now I'm starting to rethink that. This is a test project so I might try some Watco over the stain and see how it looks.

Two-Thirds Of Millennials Can't Say What Auschwitz Is: Study (patch.com)
A common trap that many teachers fall into is assuming that when their students get to them, those students will have learned the same things that they'd learned at that particular age or grade level. For some teachers, this is an honest mistake that they're not even aware that they're making; others, however, may not particularly care about all the factors involved in why their students aren't aware of certain issues, because they view every perceived shortcoming in their students' knowledge as an excuse to treat them like idiots. I've dealt with far too many teachers, both as a student and a teacher myself, who harbour this attitude, and I firmly believe that anyone who treats their students that way has absolutely no business being a teacher.
There are many reasons why the things that get taught in school change over time. The world we live in now is radically different from the world of twenty, or even ten, years ago; just look at how technology has changed how we access information in those time frames, and imagine (if you've been out of school for that whole time) how those changes would influence how you'd write a research paper. The political climate in which American education operates is a huge influence on what gets taught in our schools as well, and although this is hardly a new phenomenon, it's been more visible in recent years, as evidenced by recent controversies about everything from AP US History guidelines to which people get mentioned in history textbooks.
It's hardly a surprise that history is one of the subject areas most prone to political combat, given its power to influence not just how we see our past, but our present and future as well. Even with an ideal history teacher, who gives their students the tools with which to make their own decisions instead of deigning to make those decisions for their students, there's only so much material that can be taught over a term, and those choices are bound to influence the students who take that class, albeit to a lesser degree than the unscrupulous history teachers who tell their students what to think about the material they cover.
I made my first trip to the Holocaust Memorial Center in suburban Detroit when I was twelve years old, just as I was beginning to form my first real political understandings thanks to the rap music I was listening to back then. The treatment of minorities has always been a core component of my political beliefs, and even though I'd studied the Holocaust in earlier social studies classes, the exhibits at that memorial provided a kind of accessibility similar to what 1980's rap music was teaching me about the plight of African-Americans in this country. It was a very affecting experience for me, and definitely deepened my early development as a political person; if you've never been to a Holocaust memorial before, I strongly suggest that you go to one as soon as you can.
I remember being told at the time that some teachers and schools just didn't teach the Holocaust to their students. I think the impulse back then was to protect young children from learning about humanity's capacity for evil; much like the modern movement to remove racial slurs from classic literature like Mark Twain's novels, the root impulse may be based on the best of intentions, but it does children a disservice not only by treating them as incapable of handling difficult material, but also by not alerting them to the real dangers that are out there when humans give in to their darkest desires. Without knowledge of the worst massacres and genocides in history, people may live their entire lives believing that such atrocities could never happen, either back then or right now.
Not teaching young people about the Holocaust would be horrible enough on its own, but the reality in America right now is that thanks to the continued war on public education through the demands of the political-corporate standardized testing regime, more and more students aren't even taking history classes, or at least not as many as they used to. If students aren't even taught the most basic of facts about how the world they live in became how it is right now, then they can hardly be expected to comprehend the dangers of humanity's worst moments potentially being relived in their own lifetimes.
The fact that the rich and powerful — the people who have benefited the most from the rising and falling tides of history — are the ones whose children are most likely to have comprehensive history classes in their schools is no coincidence. They are the ones who are most responsible for the decimation of America's public school system, to enrich themselves and their friends at the expense of those who were already much less fortunate. They are the ones whose educations gave them not only the greatest understanding of how to manipulate our economic and political systems for their own gain, but also how to manipulate their victims into turning against one another instead of fighting their oppressors. They are the ones working hardest to be portrayed as Nietzchian übermenschen today, especially through their manipulation of media and culture, because they know that a population without historical literacy and comprehension is more likely to lionize them to the point of making them historical figures themselves.
More to the point, these are the same people whose habitual lambasting of millennials long ago reached a level where comic examples (killing Applebee's, spending all their money on avocado toast, et cetera) became iconic. The danger in this comedy, though, is that it masks the malevolence of the people making those accusations. Above and beyond the superficial concern of these people being seemingly incapable of and/or unwilling to acknowledge any faults or mistakes of their own, their rhetoric continues to perpetuate the old notion that young people are inherently lazy and stupid, and need to be "protected" from themselves by subjugating their individuality and free will to the service of the rich and powerful.
This is why headlines like "Two-thirds of millennials don't know what Auschwitz is" can be tremendously misleading, because without a broader understanding of the larger forces at work, the wording of those headlines feed right into the whole "millennials are stupid" nonsense. The reality is that between going to schools that are rapidly losing their ability to give their students any real history education, and coming home to households where their parents can't supplement their in-school education because they're too busy working countless jobs just to pay all the bills, the main reason why so many young people lack basic knowledge about the Holocaust is because they live in a society where they haven't had the opportunity to even learn about the Holocaust, and the same people who bemoan their alleged indifference to history are the ones most responsible for their lack of historical understanding.
The importance of understanding the Holocaust can't be overstated, perhaps even more so at this crucial moment in our history. I've been making my way through Hannah Arendt's The Origins of Totalitarianism these past few weeks, and learning far more than I ever knew before about the factors that led to the Holocaust and the atrocities of the early Soviet Union. The historical parallels between then and now are downright chilling, and worse yet is the fact that breeding ignorance in the larger population is among the most prominent of those parallels. Trying to teach this history to young people who were never exposed to it in their earlier schooling is nothing short of a monumental task, but it may be one of the most important for us to take right now.
There is a world of difference between ignorance and willful ignorance. Millennials who weren't sufficiently taught about the Holocaust in school may be ignorant about it, but they did not choose to be ignorant. The people responsible for them not getting that opportunity not only willfully robbed them of that chance, but are also practicing the worst kind of willful ignorance themselves, by fostering some of the same conditions that led to the most genocidal of 20th century regimes. Their will to ignorance may be incredibly strong, but our will to educate has to be stronger.

Alex Iwobi says that the Gunners second goal against Huddersfield was the consequence of training ground drills in which Unai Emery looks for his team to transition quickly in the opposition half.
Iwobi picked up a pass from Laurent Koscielny, fed Henrikh Mkhitaryan in space before he in turn picked out Ainsley Maitland-Niles whose low, hard cross was turned into the back of the net by Alexandre Lacazette for his 12th goal of the campaign.
Speaking afterwards, the 22 year old was quick to credit the head coach for the work they've been doing.
"We've been working a lot on transitioning when we get the ball, to counter-attack and attack with speed," he said.
"So when the goal went in it was a great team move and I was also happy for Laca to get the goal as well."
Iwobi also had words of encouragement for Maitland-Niles who had an up and down game, but the Nigerian is hopeful the assist will boost his confidence.
"Ainsley did well today," he said. "He's an attacking threat. You can see that he can get up and down, he's got a lot of stamina.
"It'll do him a lot of good and hopefully he continues this run of form."

Considering how unmoving Massimo Bottura, the world's best chef, is rumoured to be when it comes to the identity of his brand, Osteria Francescana, it doesn't come as a surprise that he initially declined W Dubai, the Palm Hotel's offer for him to open an outpost of his award-winning Modena-based restaurant.
"Osteria Francescana has its roots and identity in Modena and we never had any intention of replicating it anywhere else in the world," says Bottura. "They insisted and invited us to Dubai. When we arrived and saw the property on the Palm, we started to think again. The more we talked and shared ideas, the more we realised that Dubai could be the perfect place, but not for Osteria Francescana or our casual restaurant Franceschetta, but an opportunity for a brand new concept. And that is where the first seeds of Torno Subito were planted."
When Dubai-based interior design firm, Bishop Design, headed by Paul Bishop was tasked with the design, the brief they were given was quite simple: "It was to realise the sentiment of Massimo having fun," says Bishop. "It was to be a manifestation of beachside days reminiscent of Rimini's coastal playground of the 1950s and 60s, featuring amazing food, drinks and ultimate relaxation."
On his part, Bottura was convinced about the kind of restaurant he did not want to create. "We saw that there were plenty of beautiful fine dining Italian restaurants with leather chairs, and even more rustic Italian restaurants with brick ovens and checked tablecloths," says the culinary wizard. A few brainstorming sessions and some imaginative thinking later, Bottura and the design team had one concept in mind — something completely out of everyone's pre-packaged idea of Italy.
"We are constantly trying to shake up preconceptions of Italy and the Italian kitchen and this thread weaves through all of our projects from when we first opened our doors at Osteria Francescna to our latest projects in Florence with Gucci Osteria or the soon to be opened Casa Maria Luigia, a guesthouse in the Emilian countryside," says Bottura.
After many conversations with the chef, Bishop came to the conclusion that the former desired to create something entirely nostalgic with his restaurant, reflective of his innovative approach to food. "Massimo's sentiments of 'tradition in evolution' steered the design direction to inherit the best of the past and carry it forward to the future," says Bishop, who began to interpret Bottura's nostalgic days of Italian pop culture into a space.
Mixing fantasy with memories of a bygone era, the interiors would become the conduit for vintage Italian cinema, especially, the works of famous Italian filmmaker, Federico Fellini. "The venue in its entirety was to be a beautiful fusion, bringing together the design, food and influences from the golden days into one harmonious offering," says Bishop.
The design narrative was beginning to transform into a storyboard of ideas, concepts and fantasies, which would culminate in an ultimate La Dolce Vita vibe filled with an explosion of colours alongside a relaxing beachside terrace. "Torno Subito is an effusion of utterly beautiful reminiscence," says Bishop. There are references from beach balls to the pastel-coloured pedalo boats and the faux sandy floor.

"With Torno Subito, we wanted to transport our guests to another place and time — the dolce vita of 1960s Riviera where life was always sunny with the Dubai skyline in the background so that you can have best of both worlds simultaneously," says Bottura about the new interpretation of dolce vita.
For Bottura, the creative process for Torno Subito began by pulling images from some of his favorite Italian places, movies, posters, and icons —everything from circus images to Fellini, from 1960s dolce vita (a term Italians constantly use to reference good life) to postcards from the Italian Riviera. "Once we had a slideshow of images, the concept started coming together, and we envisioned a gathering place that could showcase a design-focused, colourful, and delicious Italian experience," shares Bottura. "The menu followed the design and colour scheme and we divided the kitchen into difference areas — from pasta to gelato and pizza — to highlight the diversity of the Italian kitchen."

Pastel tones mixed with a bold mélange of colours, in turn contrasting against a morphing monochromatic floor dynamic which seamlessly blends into a unique, three-dimensional agitated sand print flooring. An eclectic array of black and white Polaroid photos from the '60s are suspended from the ceiling, many of them from Bottura's very own collection. The modern influences include corrugated iron representative of a red curtain which surrounds the WC entrance. Animated graphic-stamped ceiling panels float in irregular lines representing the canopies of old Italian food market tents that Bottura has been frequenting since he was a child. Furniture is eclectic, thoughtfully developed and curated from the design classics of Paola Lenti.
The objective of Torno Subito, as envisaged by Bottura and executed by Bishop, is far beyond being solely an F&B venue. "The walls tell a beautiful story inspired by Massimo's memories, enabling guests to relive these experiences," says Bishop. Serving emotion as the main ingredient in every dish is mirrored through each element of the design. Even the name, Torno Subito, translates into "I'll be back soon," reminiscent of signs hung in Italian shopkeepers' windows during lunchtime, captures the sentiments of the eatery, adding a tongue-in-cheek reference to Bottura's presence at the restaurant.
"The funny thing about the phrase, Torno Subito, is that you really never know when the shopkeeper is coming back — it could be 10 minutes or 10 days," Bottura explains. "There is a kind of irony about the expression and a lighthearted quality. You need to trust the words that the person will return."
Despite initial skepticism, the hotel representatives soon comprehended the concept. "From our first meeting with Paul [Bishop], it was clear that there was no way we could turn back," says Bottura, describing it as a magic combination. "He completely got the concept, the irony and the design focus and took it to where it is today. If I remember correctly, in one of our first meetings Lara, my wife, said, 'Think Memphis-meets-Fellini', and that was all it took to get everyone aligned."

Explaining the riotous colour scheme, Bishop notes that every element from the bold monochromatic striped flooring to the sunshine yellow tiles, glossy teal counters and graphic-infused ceilings, the entire venue is a fusion of perky hues that shouldn't work together, but somehow do. "With the project superseding Massimo's expectations, it has been a truly inspiring and amazing chapter for the studio," says the designer. When speaking with Commercial Interior Design's sister publication, Caterer Middle East, Bottura had commented: "I'm very critical on myself, on my team — nothing is good enough for me, never. But I have to say when I walked in, it was unbelievable."
The interior perfectly captures Bottura's view of the world, which is multi-layered, profound and often filtered through a child-like wonder and his Italian enthusiasm.

The DN-300DH is full-featured AM/FM digital tuner with the addition of DAB+. This new component is perfect for global commercial installations that require a tuner capable of delivering clear, uninterrupted reception of radio broadcasts coupled with unsurpassed ease of use, versatile connections and 1 RU size.

Digital audio broadcasting is more efficient than analog broadcasting and thus can offer more radio services (such as pausing the program or saving broadcasts to memory cards) than analog radio. With the DN-300DH, users will enjoy the benefits of both analog radio and the latest in digital radio programming.
Tuning is automatic or manual and the user can store up to 40 favorite station presets including RDS broadcasts. Balanced and unbalanced audio outputs make it easy to integrate into any installation, and there is a USB port for firmware updates. The display brightness is adjustable, and the operation can be switched from stereo to mono. An IR remote is included.

Must Have Edmonton Home Move-In Checklist 2015
Congratulations! Now you are officially the owner of your Edmonton dream home! We couldn't be happier for you! ;)
Now, as part of our effort to help all our clients and readers make their Edmonton real estate experience as smooth and pleasant as possible, we have gathered this Saturday a "must have" move-in checklist.
Read, take note and enjoy!
- LOCKS. First things first… change the locks. There can be good possibility that somebody aside from the previous owner/s have a duplicate of the key, so in order to avoid the risk of having somebody enter your new home without permission, the best and easiest way is to change it. You can hire professionals to install deadbolts to thoroughly secure your property.
Peace-of-mind… check!
- CARPETS. Now that the doors are secured, let's move on to the interiors. Clean the carpets before installing your new furniture. Again, you can hire professionals to do the work for you.
A fresh, clean carpet for a brand new start!
- CABINETS. Now that you have the carpets covered, the next thing that you should do is clean the cabinets. Use a non-toxic cleaner and wipe it inside and out before placing your dishes and bath supplies.
You may think "Oh! The previous owners already cleaned it!" but we have to ask you this, did you see them do it?
- PLUMBING. This is just to make sure that everything is running perfectly. Check for leaks, although your home inspector might have already done it, it's best that you also double-check.
A simple life-hack is to close all the faucets then right down the meter readings on a one-hour gap. If there's a change in the meter within the one-hour gap, you definitely have a leak.
- WATER VALVE. Since you're already going to check the plumbing, we recommend that you also check and become the master of your water valve. Learn how to turn it off. This will come very handy in a plumbing emergency since you can immediately turn off all the water supply.
- CIRCUIT BREAKER. Its best that you get familiar with your circuit breaker since you may have to do bulb replacements in the future. This is so you can avoid being electrocuted.
Ah, yes! This is a very simple checklist, but that is what makes it problematic. Edmontonians often take them for granted. Just like checking your car before going on for a road trip (for security purposes), you should also do these checklist before you become cozy in your new home. You wouldn't want to experience problems while in the middle of the ride.

Security and Safety: What to Consider When Finding a College Apartment
February 4, 2016Managed WordPress Migration UserUncategorizedComments 0
College students who choose to live in an apartment make very good choices because they come with a number of advantages. If you are going to college and you are looking for an apartment or you are already in college and you have decided to try out apartment living, it is not enough to just look at what amenities are made available to you. Your security and safety should also be looked into if at all you are to have a good time living off campus. Here are some of the security and safety measures you should check when selecting an apartment.
The apartment location
Is the location reputable in terms of security or will you be worrying all the time when commuting to and from school? How is the neighborhood in terms of security? Are there security agencies within the area? These are some of the questions that can help you evaluate how reliable the apartment location is in terms of security. Find out as much as you can about the location and crime, then make a decision you will be comfortable with. The more you know about the location, the better off you'll be knowing you remain safe and secure.
Security fence
A fence does not only take privacy to another level, but it actually elevates security levels within the property. Look at the type of fence the apartment has and how secure it makes you feel when within it. Some modern apartments have electric fences around the entire property and this makes students feel very secure at all times. Choose an apartment in which the perimeter wall can be trusted for heightened security.
Security cameras and systems
An apartment block that has HD cameras and remote monitoring tends to be best for students who are conscious about their safety and security. When you know that the property is under surveillance, you feel secure and relaxed. The security systems also have a way of keeping criminals at bay. An apartment that has such systems will make you feel safe and secure even when off the building because you know that your belongings and valuables remain safe.
Fire systems
Fires cannot be overlooked, especially considering how mischievous some students can be. A good apartment designed for college students should have reliable fire systems. They can be made up of smoke detectors and fire extinguishers and even alarms. Consider the system that your apartment has and how effective it will be in case of a fire breakout. You will also want to look at the fire exits made available and how functional they can be in case an emergency occurs. The systems are commonly overlooked, but they are some of the most important as far as your safety off campus is concerned.
Also important to look at when thinking of safety and security is the security lock system available in the apartment. The apartment should have a reliable system that makes unauthorized entries impossible.
If you are looking for a safe and secure apartment to make your college life more enjoyable and relaxed, then Westbridge Apartments is where you should be. The apartments have your safety and security as a priority thanks to the top notch systems in place.

Class of 2018
International Development or Humanitarian Aid
After spending ten years as an entrepreneur and building two successful businesses, Davis Smith used his experiences in creating new ventures to build a social enterprise that could give back. Smith grew up in Latin America and spent much of his adulthood back in the region, which inspired the launch of Cotopaxi, an outdoor gear brand with a humanitarian mission at its core.
One of the key focuses of Cotopaxi's impact work involves refugees, which was also Smith's area of focus during PLS. During his time in the program, he worked and continues to provide refugee entrepreneurs with mentors, workshops, and a culminating new venture challenge.

Despite the fact that 2018 is not the best time for cryptocurrencies in terms of capital performance, many projects are developing according to a long-term vision. One of them is VeChain, where many technological changes and progress have been made over the last year. VEN, because this is what the ticker of this cryptocurrency is now established, implemented a new ecosystem based on VTHOR tokens. How will the change affect VeChain's prospects in 2019? We check.
Why and whom VeThor was introduced for?
VeThor is a token, straightforwardly, thanks to which business ventures and corporations will be able to access VeChain blockchain resources. VeThor tokens are created by everyone who has VET. The minimum rate of VTHO generation has been set at 0.000432 VTHO / day, for every 1 VET. It is worth noting that the idea for such a distribution of producing tokens has already been implemented in the world of cryptocurrencies, for example in the Neo cryptocurrency.
How does the VeChain business ecosystem work? At the beginning of the project, VEN tokens were introduced. Along with the development of the business vision, they have evolved into a VET and VTHOR pool. These two types of cryptocurrencies, although closely related, serve different purposes:
VET is smart money, used for financial billing and business activity support. They are used to generate VTHOR and are de facto shares in the VeChain ecosystem.
VTHOR is a working currency used to handle transactions and power smart contracts and applications. VTHOR can be generated by holding VET or purchased on cryptocurrency exchanges.
Is it worth investing in VeChain in 2019?
All cryptocurrency projects that introduce additional investment incentives are worth noting. In the case of VeChain, it is a regularly distributed amount of VETHOR tokens. Investors can count on the increase of their portfolio's value. What further speaks for VeChain? Holders of a large number of VET can directly influence the future of the project. In addition, the community has been electrified the news of deepening cooperation with the BMW automotive mogul. On the other hand, the price of VET and VTHOR does not look optimistic: the market pricing this project very low, throwing VeChain out of the top twenty by coinmarketcap.
Return on investment is not difficult to calculate. The value calculator generated by the possession of VET cryptocurrencies indicates that an ROI of 1.3% should be expected, which is a bit down from 2018's 1.7%. This is not a stunning result, especially in the light of much better, potential returns eg from the cryptocurrency market dividend, additionally offering an affiliate program, allowing a return of over 10%! By the way, this exchange also offers VeChain trade. And to be completely clear, both VET and KCS suffered huge loses during 2018 downturn and are reasonably priced in 2019.
Where to buy VeChain and how to store VET?
The largest place where you can buy VET is the Binance cryptocurrency market. What is very important, the monthly generated VeThor allocation is automatically received on this exchange. How to buy VeChain step by step?
- Create a free account on Binance,
- Deposit cryptocurrencies, e.g. Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin,
- Find a VET / BTC pair and buy the VeChain cryptocurrency (you will pay the lowest 0.075% commission in the BNB promotion)
At the end of 2018, the price of VET was moving around a month's low while transactions did not generate high daily volumes. In the first weeks of 2019, however, there has been significant rebound on the cryptocurrency market. It is still an opportunity to get a long-term position cheaply, especially if you have the technical capability to establish a node in the VET ecosystem or keep tokens throughout 2019.
How to store VeChain? VET wallet
VeChain is, despite the risk, often stored on the cryptocurrency market. This strategy, supported by the fact that Binance is automatically distributing VTHOR, worked well throughout 2018. The alternative is to use the VeChain Thor's native wallet or, and it seems the most sensible, to keep VeChain in 2019 on a secure wallet Ledger Nano S.

Wrongful Death Accidents in Las Vegas
Losing a loved one is an extremely traumatic event in an individual's life. This is even more so the case in the event of an unexpected and sudden loss through wrongful death. A wrongful death is when an individual passes away because of another's behavioral misconduct. When this happens to a family, they often wish to seek justice and financial assistance for the life that was lost. These can be sought with the help of an experienced attorney.
What is Wrongful Death?
When an individual dies because of another person's negligence, carelessness, or misconduct, it is called a wrongful death. This may happen as a result of an accident, product malfunction, medical malpractice, unsafe premises, and more. When a loved one dies, the family is left to pick up the pieces of the unfortunate event. In the event of wrongful death, loved ones must handle not only the loss of a life, but the loss of an income and a great amount of pain and suffering as a result.
Types of Cases
There are many ways in which a wrongful death could occur. Lawsuits are usually pursued in situations involving automobile accidents, medical malpractice, unsafe premises, product liability, and more. These situations typically have to do with any circumstances in which the death occurred as a result of another individual's misconduct or negligence. There are some cases in which wrongful death lawsuits may relate to a workplace accident if the death was caused by the negligence of someone other than the deceased employee, their employer, or co-worker.
When loved ones take care of the aftermath of wrongful death, there is a great financial burden on top of their own personal suffering. This can include several expenses that must be handled. Because of this, loved ones often seek compensation after a wrongful death in order to cover the expenses. This can often be difficult, which is why it is important to have an experienced attorney at your side while fighting for wrongful death damages. In the state of Nevada, compensation may be sought for the following:
- Funeral and burial costs
- Administration costs of a will

Carol, the latest film from Todd Haynes, is unyieldingly admirable in almost every way that matters in the construction of great cinema. The screenplay, adapted by Phyllis Nagy from a novel by Patricia Highsmith, is meticulous and thoughtful, spelling out the conflicts of the main characters in a determined, empathetic fashion. The performances evidence an equal amount of care. Maybe more than anything, Haynes's directing job, heavily abetted by the cinematography of Edward Lachman, is the sort that can be studied for decades, held up as the embodiment of the way that images can be framed and finessed to tell a story through their agonizing attention to thematic detail. If it feels like all this slightly abstract praise is leading to a mighty caveat, I must admit that it is. For all its many, many merits, Carol is also chilly and tidily bloodless. It hits every tone with precision, but it never really sings.
Set in the nineteen-fifties, the film tells the story of a forbidden romance. Therese Belivet (Rooney Mara) works the counter of a posh department store. In the run-up to Christmas, she encounters a posh, refined woman named Carol (Cate Blanchett), shopping for a gift for her young daughter, although fully open to being intrigued by less material offerings. Gradually, the two fall into an affair, depicted more as elegant ache than riotous passion. In a way, Haynes is returning to the territory of what remains his pinnacle achievement as a filmmaker, Far From Heaven. With this outing, however, Haynes is less invested in capturing a florid emotional authority meant to roughly approximate the issues dramas of the era in which the film is set. Instead, he means, so it seems, to pitch his film toward piercing drama, set in an era long past, but meant to offer parallels to the roiling social anxieties of today. There's nothing inherently wrong with the different approach, even if it does ultimately contribute to keeping the film locked in a safe idle.
The relative safety of the film doesn't mean that Haynes has rejected all manner of complication, locking his creativity into a mode of staid security. He's too complicated a filmmaker for that. Carol is scored with enlivening friction, most notably in the intriguing divide between the sterling lead performances. Blanchett plays Carol with a fluctuating pulse of stylized confidence, adopting a snap of mild artifice that adds jarring depth to the moments of more direct, forceful emotion that she's called upon to play. Against that, Mara opts for an icy stillness that gives way to quiet tumult, conveying her character's journey while simultaneously reinforcing, more clearly than anything else in the film, the way that society prevents her from being her whole self. It is a performance that invites a fervent examination of its deeply embedded clues, thusly providing an potential entryway into the deeper treasures of Carol. Finely honed as his vision may be, Haynes isn't a warm enough filmmaker to completely find his way to a satisfactorily compelling vision about passion, even the repressed kind. Luckily, he's also a thorough enough craftsman and astute recruiter of collaborators that he can enlist those, such as Mara, who will help bridge the distance he can't quite cross on his own.

Terrorist, Murders, Mindless Killers
The carnage of the blameless,
Regardless of nationality or gender
Senseless assassination by the aimless:
The slaughtered in the subway
For what reason may I ask?
To satisfy the needs the mindless
A Bus is blown apart
The British people and the rest of the world
That is - the ones that are part of civilisation,
Will stand together in dignity
And await their salvation.
Devastation and trauma of innocent people
In shock and in anger, remember,
Dignity without malice will destroy
The enemy must be dismembered.
Victory in spite of terror
For without victory there is no survival,
There is no time to hesitate
God be with you, the survivor's.

Planning, Zoning and Wetlands
Mission Statement
The Planning, Zoning and Wetlands Department mission is to assist applicants throughout the municipal approvals process, to ensure that proposals comply with applicable regulations, and to enforce the Town's Zoning, Subdivision, and Inland Wetlands and Watercourses regulations. Meetings with developers are encouraged and held often, prior to formal application and plan submission to the Land Use Commissions.
The department is responsible for issuing zoning permits and for resolving zoning and environmental complaints. A zoning permit is required to construct, enlarge, alter, move, or change the use of primary and/or accessory structures, and prior to commencement of the operation of a home-based business. For activity proposed within the 75' upland review area (the "buffer") of a wetland or a watercourse, a wetland buffer permit is required prior to issuance of a zoning permit. However, permitted uses as of right and non-regulated uses do not require a permit. Work within the actual wetland and watercourse requires a permit from the Inland Wetlands and Conservation Commission.

In my last post I discussed how you can create a layout and potential structure for your intranet with a paper prototype.
If you want to validate your layout you may want to create an electronic wireframe. If that's the case, I find a very effective way is to use specific wire framing software such as Axure. These are designed to link each page together so you can get an idea of the logical flow between different site areas.
To test out your site you'll want to assemble a sample group of typical intranet users who are from a wide variety of backgrounds.
Using your wireframe, ask them to perform a task.
During stakeholder interviews you'll have got a good understanding of the type of tasks that are performed frequently.
This may have been:
- Finding a contact
- Finding a document
Based on this, you can ask your test group to perform one of these tasks.
You can then measure how successful the layout is by giving them a certain amount of time to find the information or counting clicks. As a general rule,three clicks or less is the ideal amount of time.
If there are minor adjustments needed you can adjust the wireframe and retest. However if the layout doesn't appear to be working well at all and staff are struggling to find content quickly, you will probably need to go back and rethink your paper prototype.
After you've completed testing successfully, you'll have a site that works well for your intended audience.

Typefaces give words a tone of voice. The font chosen for a communication plays an important, if subtle, part in our identity. Communications are most effective when the content is consistent in both meaning and appearance, and brands are most effective with a consistent tone of voice that becomes familiar across many encounters.
When choosing a font for your communications, consider one that fits the personality of your design and supports the message. Within a single communication, it is recommended that no more than two different fonts be used.
Libre Baskerville
This traditional serif font traces its heritage to a typeface designed in 1757 by John Baskerville whose aim was to improve legibility over older serif faces. By increasing the contrast between thick and thin strokes, and giving the letterforms a more regular shape, his design has become a classic. A research study showed that the use of the Baskerville font increased the likelihood of the reader agreeing with a statement over other typefaces: it conveys authority and intelligence.
Libre Baskerville is an updated and redrawn version of the font created by Argentinian type designer Pablo Impallari. This new version has a taller x height, which optimizes its legibility on screen, while still working beautifully in print. It is a free, open-source font, making it easily downloadable without license restrictions.
To ensure consistency, please only use the Open Type format of Libre Baskerville. In cases where it is not possible or practical to use Libre Baskerville, these fonts may be substituted: ITC New Baskerville, Baskerville Old Face, or Caslon.
Source Sans Pro
Source Sans is a humanist style sanserif font designed by Paul D. Hunt as Adobe's first open-source typeface family. The font is available in a wide variety of weights and includes the fullest set of international characters. Source Sans is characterized by an open, upright design that is neutral and friendly. It draws inspiration from the clarity of American gothic typeface designs, but it has been simplified and enhanced to create a pleasant reading experience in both long passages and short text strings. It is optimized for both print and web applications and is highly legible at all sizes.
It is a free, open-source font, making it easily downloadable without license restrictions. In cases where it is not possible or practical to use Source Sans Pro, these fonts may be substituted: Open Sans, Calibri, or Arial.
Rockwell was designed in 1934 by Frank Hinman Pierpont and published by the Monotype Foundry. It is based upon several earlier geometric typefaces from the early 20th century, including Litho Antique distributed by a St. Louis type foundry. Slab serif fonts retain a bold, nostalgic and somewhat casual air, recalling their original use on posters and handbills. Today, this mono-weighted face is well suited to headlines and other display applications that require a confident tone. It should not be used for body text.
Rockwell is included with many desktop publishing licenses (Microsoft Office), or is available to purchase in both web and desktop versions.

NICE has published final recommendation for ILUMETRI ®▼ (Tildrakizumab), as a cost-effective option for adults with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis.
The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) has published its final guidance approving Almirall's ILUMETRI ® (Tildrakizumab), a humanized, high-affinity IL-23p19 monoclonal antibody, for treating adult patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who are candidates for systemic therapy. Following a single health technology assessment submission to NICE in August 2018 and the subsequent questions for clarification and appraisal committee meetings, NICE completed its assessment of Tildrakizumab and has recommended it as a cost effective treatment option for the NHS for the patients specified in the Final Appraisal Determination.
Tildrakizumab is a high affinity, humanised, IgG1 K antibody targeting interleukin IL 23 p19 that represents an evolving treatment strategy in chronic plaque psoriasis. Tildrakizumab constitutes an important step forward in the treatment of moderate-to-severe chronic plaque psoriasis. Tildrakizumab is administered by subcutaneous injection, every three months during maintenance.
Almirall in-licensed Tildrakizumab from Sun Pharma Global FZE (Sun Pharma) in May 2016. The agreement is for commercialisation of ILUMETRI® (Tildrakizumab) in Europe. It was approved by the European Commission in September 2018, is already available in Germany and is due to be marketed in all EU Member states.
Its approval in Europe is based on reSURFACE 1 and 2 positive results, with the dose of 100mg. Both pivotal phase III clinical trials, which included over 1,800 patients from more than 200 clinical sites worldwide, showed that Tildrakizumab offers clinically meaningful benefits over time, which is promising news for patients and physicians.
According to both studies' data, an average of 62% of patients achieved 75% of skin clearance (Psoriasis Area Sensitivity Index or PASI 75) by week 12 and an average of 77% at week 28 after only three doses. Moreover, an average of 54% of patients treated with Tildrakizumab 100mg achieved PASI 90 and an average of 23% reached PASI 100 at week 28; while an average of 58% of patients treated with Tildrakizumab 200mg achieved PASI 90 and an average of 29% reached PASI 200 at week 28.
The results of a pooled analysis through three years from reSURFACE 1 and reSURFACE 2 phase III trials show the consistent maintenance of efficacy and safety over three years of Tildrakizumab in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who were responders at week 28. According to the data, PASI 75 responses were maintained with continued treatment with Tildrakizumab in 9 out of 10 patients up to week 148. More than 50% of patients reported that psoriasis no longer affected their lives after only three doses. Tildrakizumab was well-tolerated with very low drug-related serious adverse events and discontinuation rates.

It's amazing, really, how often in life we do things with never a thought that someday we will be asked to explain ourselves. Case in point - "Clearing". In the 1970s, our little trio - Joan, Sarah and Jeff - performed throughout New England at a large variety of venues - often in Unitarian churches for Sunday services and other gatherings.
By 1973 we had expanded our interests and repertoire to the point where we wanted to make another record - of our own material - to be called simply "Clearing". We hadn't really enjoyed the "Ace Recording" experience, and besides we were low on cash, so we decided to record this one on our own. We managed to find some war-surplus recording equipment, and by this time Joan and I were living in the big house with its giant library room - perfect as an ad-hoc studio. Most of the recording took place there, with our friend Tom Rothschild at the rudimentary controls. It was an unlikely setting - with people coming and going and pauses as airplanes flew overhead - but we had the advantages of ignorance, enthusiasm and naivete. Some cuts were done at other locations - notably at a church we found in Waltham that had fantastic acoustics. For a very reasonable fee, we got to use it for a couple of evenings, late enough to avoid serious traffic noises. In the spirit of the times, we invited several friends and family members to participate on this record, as noted on the track list. The album had a pressing of 2000, most of which were sold at performances and through the UUA. Clearing continued on until about 1976.
After Clearing, we pursued various interests. Joan Faber had a long career as a singer-pianist performing standards in various nightclubs in the Boston-Cambridge area. She is currently the head of the sheet music Department of Johnson String Instrument in Newton. Jeff Brewer developed an interest in rock climbing in the 1980s, and invented a treadmill-like machine for climbing called the Treadwall. He is currently partners in the company that manufacturers this device. Joan and Jeff still live on the big-house property with members of their extended family. Sara Benson moved from the Boston area to Charlemont, a western-Massachusetts town with an active alternative life-style population. She became an important and much-loved member of that community. In 2008 Sara passed away. Her loss is sorely felt by her friends and family. --- Jeff Brewer

text: Chewie 8 Report post Posted August 4, 2017 Whilst the Neymar transfer fee is crazy, there is something to be said for the logic of allowing a player to move for an agreed sum once a fee has been met (if the player wants to).. but rather than (somewhat) arbitrary buy-out fees, I reckon the fee should be set at a value that accurately reflects the players value to the football club. This is best measured by looking at wages. So, I'd propose that a player's buy-out fee could be triggered by a preset multiple (let's say x 2 or x 3) of the remaining cost of his contract. i.e. Phil signed a new contract worth a rumoured an approximate £8mil in wages per year for the next 5 years. That means we currently stand to pay out £40 million to him. I don't think there'd be anything unreasonable about valuing him at say £80 mil (x 2 ) this summer. Next year his cost to us over the contract would be £32 mil and so his buyout could be £64 million. The potential downside would be that older players (29+) who are probably on larger wages might be less attractive for teams to buy, but that's up to the agents etc to time their contracts right and I'm sure there's an easy enough work around such as reducing the multiple to say 1.5 of the remaining contract value after a certain age - I think in some American sports once a certain tenure is reached there is more freedom on what can be paid etc.. Anyway - it'd have the instant benefit of putting an actual price on every player and once that price is met a player can move if he wishes to... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
