Northwest Arkansas residents hear from transit officials, planners from Missouri, Oklahoma
Transit officials and planners from Kansas City, Oklahoma City and Tulsa spoke about ongoing transportation-related projects in their regions, offering insights on how Northwest Arkansas can implement transit plans here.
On Wednesday (Aug. 8), officials from the neighboring regions spoke in the fourth of a four-part speaker series on mobility. Northwest Arkansas Regional Planning Commission hosted "Growing Mobility for a Growing Region, Part 4: Our Next-Door Neighbors' Transit Initiatives" at the Jones Center in Springdale.
Now that the speaker series is completed the next step will be to develop a 10-year transit plan, said Tim Conklin, transportation programs manager for the commission. This fall, a consultant will be hired to help develop the plan, which should be completed over the next 12 to 18 months. Information gathered from the speaker series will be used in the planning process.
Following are the speakers who participated in the fourth part of the speaker series: Keith Sanders, chief engineer for the Kansas City Area Transportation Authority; Laura Machala, planner for Mid-America Regional Council; Dawn Warrick, planning director for Tulsa; Ted Rieck, general manager of transit provider Tulsa Transit; Jason Ferbrache, director of transit provider Embark in Oklahoma City; and John Sharp, acting executive director for the Association of Central Oklahoma Governments.
Sanders discussed Kansas City's streetcar service and that the city looks to expand the service and its existing 2-mile line. He also spoke about the city's bus service, which has 80 regional routes and 50,000 weekday riders. The city worked to develop bus rapid transit service after previous votes failed for light rail or streetcar service.
"Transit really needed a win," Sanders said. "We needed to change our image."
The plan was to develop a new system without new taxes and to expand the service to more choice riders. Between 40% and 50% of the system provided service to riders who were dependent on transit. The first bus rapid transit line opened in 2005 and has more than 6,000 daily riders. The second route opened in 2011 and has 8,000 riders. A third line should open in 2019 and projected to have 6,000 daily riders.
An advantage to bus rapid transit compared to light rail is cost. A mile of light rail ranges between $50 million and $70 million, compared to $5 million a mile for bus rapid transit. Also, a year after the line opened in 2011, he said crime along the route declined 23%.
The line that will open in 2019 will include platforms to easily board buses, technology improvements such as 55-inch touchscreens along the route and traffic signal priority that will use an algorithm to determine how it will receive priority at traffic signals. A late bus or one with 30 passengers might receive more priority at traffic signals.
Sanders said an advisory committee led to the success of its transit programs.
In Tulsa, transit was seen as a last resort to residents, and it also needed an image change, Rieck said. The city developed a long-range plan and renovated a bus to bring the message to the public, generating community interest. Rieck explained that cities often host public hearings requiring the public to come to learn about plans and receive feedback, but over four months, the bus went into neighborhoods to present plans and solicit feedback where residents live.
One of the keys to a voter-friendly initiative is to have partners, Rieck said. Tulsa voters approved a sales tax that will in part pay for bus rapid transit, and the first line is expected to start operating in fall 2019. Another line is expected to open in 2021, Warrick said. Rieck said to plan for setbacks.
"Transit is not the solution," he said. "It's part of the solution."
Sharp explained plans to create a regional transit authority that includes six cities in the Oklahoma City area. Oklahoma City has two weighted votes on the authority, and each vote is weighted at 26%, while the other cities have a smaller weighted vote. He said regions that receive federal funding are those that work together. And when building transit project, don't plan for what's needed now but for the future.
Ferbrache said to work incrementally to improve transit. In 2005, Oklahoma City developed a plan that envisioned what transit should look like in the city. One part of the plan was to establish downtown circulation, and the city is building a streetcar project that's expected to provide for this circulation.
The city improved bus routes by straightening them, and they have a minimum frequency of 30 minutes. Some have a 15-minute frequency. This was completed through city council approval and with general funds, Ferbrache said. Over the past three to five years, the city has added five routes that run until midnight, and it will soon have Sunday routes.
"We want to build out our vision from 2005," Ferbrache said. "You have to deliver incrementally and tell the story about what you're doing."
Studies can be expensive, but the results can be used to show elected officials the impacts of implementing a plan.

Call it the Scott Brown ?imperative.
If Scott Brown can pose naked in "Cosmo" — and be elected a United States senator and touted as a possible presidential contender — then surely 23-year-old Kaitlin Pearson can pose nearly naked and work as a teacher's aide with special needs kids in a Fitchburg grammar school.
"That's right," her mother, Paula, agreed enthusiastically last night in the cozy kitchen of the family's farmhouse-style home with Christmas wreaths still on the windows and a "Scott Brown: He's For US" sticker on the garage.
Kaitlin's father, Chuck, pointed to a local principal's letter to the editor defending his daughter in yesterday's Sentinel & Enterprise, the paper that received — anonymously — a packet of Pearson's modeling photos. The same packet was sent, anonymously, to school officials, and Pearson was placed on administrative leave Jan. 17.
In the letter, Principal Fran Thomas Jr. of Memorial Middle School said that while he doesn't know Pearson, he objected to the "cowardice" of the anonymous packet sender. "As a parent and an ?educator, I am far, far, far, more concerned about a student being in a classroom with petty, vindictive, sneaky, gutless bullies than with a former model." Sneaks, he said, are the ones who shouldn't be working in schools.
"Take it," Pearson's father said last night, handing me the letter. He has repeatedly defended Kaitlin as a devoted teacher who does her modeling on the side and did not deserve to be reprimanded.
Kaitlin Pearson did pose in racy pictures. Some show her embracing other semi-clothed women. But these pictures are far from pornographic. No one accused her of mixing modeling with her school duties, which she apparently performs very well and very responsibly. And "after reviewing all the relevant information," Superintendent Andre Ravenelle said in a press release, the school leader did the right thing and reinstated Pearson Tuesday.
Happily, times have changed.
Scott Brown, a gorgeous young thing, used to model to make ends meet. Kaitlin Pearson, quite spectacular herself, is doing likewise. Posing naked didn't make Brown a bad person, a sleazy person, an immoral person who does not deserve people's trust. I don't remember anyone ever saying he can't be a role model.
The same should be true for Kaitlin Pearson.
While she has declined to be interviewed, Kaitlin thanked her fans for their support on her Facebook page and said she hopes all this publicity will help her modeling career.
Me, too.

Sean Dyche described himself as frustrated and annoyed after his side were edged out by Manchester United at Turf Moor.
Anthony Martial's classy second half strike was the difference between the two sides on another day when the Clarets deserved more.
And the gaffer admitted he was delighted at another good performance that ultimately, brought no reward.
"I'm frustrated because I want to win and so do my players. But we are playing a clutch of top sides at the moment and we're so close. That's not just frustrating; it's annoying," said Dyche.
"We've had injuries and suspensions, and the thing that can be forgotten is the quality of opposition.
"We've still got Manchester City to come here, after playing Tottenham and Liverpool at home and Man U home and away. Add all that into the pot and they are the margins.
"We are a soft decision away from beating Manchester United at their place, a soft moment form taking a point against Liverpool when you have fought so hard, and then today.
"The margins are so tight and they've scored a fine goal today through a great finish, but you have to look at the performance levels and I was so, so pleased.
"We are definitely a team that has improved, in my opinion. You can't play like that as regularly as we have, against some of these sides, without seeing how far we've come.
"We are not just hanging into games. We are taking them on and I have been really pleased with that."
The defeat made it seven league games without a win for Burnley, who still sit eighth in the Premier League table.
And Dyche added: "We've still got work to do, but when you look at the points we've got all season and then see a performance like that, I think it's clear to see how the team is moving forwards, both as individuals and as a unit.
"Some of the quality of football today was excellent, we've taken on a top side and come so close in so many ways today.
"We haven't quite come out on the right side of the margins recently but with performances like that, that's how you get back on the right side, that's for sure.
"We've got to continue to be brave, take the games on as and hopefully get a few bodies back. We're hopeful on a few situations and also possibles on incomings. We'll wait and see."

Note: This shows two men seated in the scaffolding of a building, Léger carefully constructs an image defined by structure and weightlessness, qualities that characterizes the construction of multistoried building. Of this series Léger has stated: "I took Les Constructeurs down to the Renault factory, and they were hung on the walls of the canteen. The blokes came in at twelve. They looked at the pictures whilst they were eating. Some of them sniggered 'Just look at them! Those blokes could never move with hands like that!' In fact they were making judgments and comparisons. My pictures seemed funny to them. They didn't understand them. Sadly eating my soup I listened to them. I went back to eat at the canteen eight days later. The atmosphere was different. The blokes weren't laughing any more, they weren't looking at the paintings. Nevertheless, quite a few of them, while eating, glanced up, had a quick look at the pictures before digging into their plates again. Who knows if the canvases intrigued them or not. But when I was getting ready to go one of the blokes came up to me: 'You're the painter, aren't you? You'll see. My mates are going to notice the difference when you take your paintings away. When they'll be looking at blank wall in front of them, my mates are going to realize what your colours are like…' that's the kind of statement that gives one pleasure" (Francia, 204 - 205).

Ages 4-7
Best friends Cork & Fuzz are back, but the spirit of competition is driving them apart. A running race, a game of stickball, and a game of tackleball all end in victory for Fuzz the possum, and frustration for Cork the muskrat, who was certain he would come out on top. When Cork suggests a swimming race, Fuzz doesnt even have time to say he cant swim before Cork is across the pond.

text: Exegesisme 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2015 (edited) 13 That Evil History of Communism, Political Philosophy for Human Future By Exegesisme 1 Now it is very clear in my reflection, that addiction of communism regime was concocted by a Jew named Karl Marx for liberation of Jews out of religious conflicts, by replacing the position of religious conflicts with class conflicts. The civilized good religious conflicts are the real driver of the creative evolution of human civilization, rather than evil class conflicts. 2 Carl Marx did that work by evilly taking use of two human arrogant processes in his era, first arrogant process of Kantian evil philosophy to put human as end and tried to trap god in a region Kant defined, second arrogant process of human war armed with capitalism and scientific technology on nature and society. 3 Western civilization has cognitive faculty to insight that evil addiction of communism and has avoided that evil end of communism of Karl Marx. 4 That core of Chinese civilization is fa school, which takes evil as human nature and has developed an evil system which has been taken use as core of all systems of all Chinese rulers since that emergence of fa school. That evil is nature and fa school takes use of that evil nature. 5 That evil core of Chinese traditional civilization concocted with that evil core of communism had concocted Chinese communism party, that evil party apparently still takes evil communism as its end which actually is only a disguise took by that party to cover its evil and ugly behavior.

Posted by ProPortion Foods Blog on Apr 17, 2018 in Aged Care, Nutrition, Packaging, Protein
As we face a burgeoning aging population, food quality in aged care has entered the limelight. After all, nutrition is pivotal for good health and healthy aging. Food also enhances quality of life through the joy of eating and the social interaction that it fosters.
Yet more than half of Australian aged care residents suffer or are at risk for malnutrition.
Malnutrition carries a host of negative outcomes like increased risk of falls, osteoporosis, arthritis, poor recovery from illness, delayed wound healing, depression and mortality. It lowers quality of life. And it is preventable.
It's not just a matter of ensuring all nutritional needs are met, which include protein, energy and a variety of foods from each food group. Several other considerations factor in.
Improving older people's nutrition status would need a multifactorial approach to address problems with swallowing, dentition, food packaging, eating support, appetite, food preferences, taste and environment.
Fundamentally, quality food needs higher priority in aged care budgets.
Even though people and organisations like Maggie Beer, Nutrition Australia, The Lantern Project and others are tackling this issue, systemic change may only come with mandatory guidelines.
Services provided at residential aged care facilities are regulated under the Aged Care Act, through the Aged Care Standards and Accreditation Agency. The standards include general nutrition information, but no mandatory guidelines for nutrition and menu planning. Hospitals have standards, so why doesn't aged care?
To rectify this situation, mandatory nutrition standards would need to be created, implemented and enforced for all Australian aged care facilities.
The new standards could contain the following recommendations:
The residential aged care landscape is fragmented. Cooperation among all stakeholders would be imperative for the successful creation, acceptance, adoption, rollout and continuation of new mandatory standards.
Stakeholders include the government's Australian Aged Care Quality Agency, My Aged Care program, Residential Aged Care Facilities (RACFs), Leading Aged Services Australia, Dietitians Association of Australia, and Speech Pathology Australia.
Challenges would need to be ironed out. Thousands of aged care workers complain about cost cutting, understaffing and rationing in RACFs, resulting in "struggle to provide the most basic level of care and dignity for elderly people."
Clearly, a cultural overhaul in aged care facilities would be essential for a new mandatory policy to succeed. This could be achieved through collaboration with stakeholders, priority budgeting, and a directive issued from above: the government body responsible for aged care quality.

Jumping the Shark. We all love this phrase don't we? It's a hilarious example of how a TV show can get the story wrong. I mean seriously The Fonz water skiing? In his jacket? Okay I get the jacket, The Fonz did everything in his jacket. But water skiing? I think it was an excuse to the send the cast and crew to the beach for a few days. Here ya go, take a moment, I'll wait. Enjoy. Youtube link to the actual event on Happy Days.
In all seriousness, Jumping the Shark is a real problem in storytelling. We may not experience it that often in novel writing because we don't usually use an episodic story structure. You Jump the Shark when you've run out of everything you could possibly say or do with your characters, run out of every possible combination of plots. You resort to the unthinkable. Jumping the Shark.
What if you wanted to write episodic fiction?
The episodic story structure works brilliantly when done well. It produces the never ending series. Any writer who loves the world they've built, or who has readers who love the world you've built, could benefit from using an episodic story structure.
Young children also enjoy the predictability of the episodic structure. Children love the familiarity of the characters and the predictability of the plot. Think of The Magic Tree House series by Mary Pope Osborne.
It's that same predictability and familiarity that can cause you to jump the shark. I think the episodic style probably works best for writers who plot (but pantsers, let me know your thoughts). When you plot an episodic series, there are a few things I've learned that we need to keep in mind that can help avoid the dreaded loss of potential ideas.
The main character of the story needs to have depth. So do all the characters but the main character needs to be able to pull this episodic thing off. He or she needs to be a stand out among characters, we're going to want to follow him or her on this journey, no matter where it goes. The key to keeping readers reading without having to resort to extraordinary shark jumping, is to make sure that your character, this awesome personality, GROWS along a character arc. Even if you're planning 50 episodes in your series your protagonist is going to have grow across those 50 novels. If he/she doesn't your reader will get bored. And so will you.
Another important aspect of writing the episodic story is the plot. Becoming the master of tension is important here. Keeping the reader turning the page, caring about what happens. Not only does the main character have to evolve so does the plot and linking the two will create the best backdrop.
What I've just stumbled through in this blog post, Chris over at King of Elfland's 2nd Cousin, *giggle* has done a brilliant job on breaking down the episodic series into an understandable and useful 3 part blog post. If you want to avoid jumping the shark keep these things in mind:
1. Main Character – must be interesting and have something going on that forces them repeatedly into adventures.
2. Main character must emotionally grow over the course of the series. the emotional arc must exist
3. Plot and pacing – Action and a mystery to solve, with a sense of escalation. As Chris mentions, you can't save the world in book 1.
4. Tension – keep the pages turning. Donald Maass does a great job in his book The Fire in Fiction about the importance of tension in each scene.
5. Leave the reader wanting more on both the story conflict and the emotional conflict.

Brad Pitt is thought to be 'absolutely smitten' with new girlfriend Neri Oxman, after his split from Angelina Jolie.
The Ocean's Eleven star has reportedly been 'quietly dating' the university professor since last year.
And it looks like things are going well for the rumoured lovebirds, with an insider claiming: 'Brad's absolutely smitten by her. Their chemistry is off the charts.
'They got romantically involved almost right away. He's been going to great length to make sure he's not spotted by prying eyes.'
It seems things are getting serious between the 54-year-old and the MIT professor, with the source adding to Us Weekly that they've been enjoying secret getaways.
How cute!
Brad and Neri were first photographed together last November, after he appeared to attend one of her MIT classes.
While at the lecture, he spent time with his fellow classmates, and posed for pictures with them – as well as his new girlfriend.
The news comes as it was revealed Brad and Angelina – who is also thought to be dating other people – have reached a divorce settlement, following their split in 2016.
The couple, who share six children together, have reportedly agreed on a truce, with lawyers putting the 'finishing touches' on paperwork.
And insiders have revealed the pair – who were together for nearly 12 years – have come to a mutual agreement over the custody of kids Maddox, 16, Pax, 14, Zahara, 13, Shiloh, 11, and nine-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
'The terms of the divorce are now agreed,' a source claimed. 'They are being finalised by both legal teams, but will be filed within weeks.'
They added to The Sun: 'It's a huge turnaround from where the marriage ended, especially given the claims Angelina made against Brad, but they are now on pretty good terms.
'Both decided it was crucial for the children that they had a respectful relationship.'

Year-Round News & Updates on the Minnesota Timberwolves
The Minnesota Timberwolves finished the season 31-51, which was bad enough for the 9th-worst record in the NBA. As such, they have the #9 pick in the 2013 NBA Draft.
The Wolves do have a small chance of winning the NBA lottery and getting the first overall selection, however. A very small chance. A 1.7% chance. But a chance nonetheless.
The Wolves also own the Memphis Grizzlies' first round selection. Because the Clippers & Grizzlies both finished the season 56-26 they 'tied' for the 25th overall selection. The tie was broken by a coin flip that the Grizzlies (Wolves) lost and thus, the Clippers get the 25th pick and the Wolves get the 26th overall pick.
The Wolves also own two picks in the Draft's second round. Neither of which is their own. Minnesota will select with Brooklyn's 52nd overall pick and Oklahoma City's 58th overall pick.
So, will the Wolves draft a rookie that will be on the roster in 2013-14? Or will they instead look to trade the majority of these picks to get established, veteran players? We'll wait and see. That's all for now, thanks for reading HOWL and GO WOLVES!

Finance: How did the last email campaign work out?
Marketing: We had 500,000 impressions and a click thru rate of 1%. So, we had 5,000 get to the promotion page which is good.
IT: We only had 317 transactions with that promo code, so it didn't work out so....

Review of the Effects of Housing Place on Individual and Social Development and Academic Success of University Students by Focus Group Discussion
Erdal ARLI
Kocaeli Üniversitesi, Karamürsel Meslek Yüksekokulu, Kocaeli, Türkiye
Housing place, Individual and social development, Student, Higher education
Students who are entitled to get into a university in our country usually live with their families. However, when a student gets into a university which is far away or when it is difficult to go and return, one of the problems which their family has to solve is housing. Housing place alternatives might be government owned hostel, private hostel or houses for rent. The young student who has lived with their family until that age may find themselves in a different environment. This life might make the young people gain socialization, sense of responsibility and sharing, being able to manage their lives in the community - and it might also make them gain qualifications like being able to make discrimination between good and bad. The basic objective of this research is to identify the effects of housing place on individual and social development. The research has been applied to the students of Kocaeli University, Karamürsel Vocational High School . For the research, five focus group discussions have been carried out, each of which is formed of 8 participants and one assistant. In the study which was carried out based on question and answer, 3 general to special questions were directed . Group members have been formed of students who stay in house and hostel also students who stay with their own family. Maximum diversity sampling has been executed. According to the results, it appears that most essential contributions of staying in a hostel are mainly information sharing, growing mature, learning about recognizing human beings, being able to make discrimination between good and bad, learning about trusting, learning about making more moderate spending, and being able to make decisions freely. Besides, participants stated that any type of environment was available for studying both in governmental hostel and in housing environment, and studying in groups increases their successes.

Stress is plain and simply a killer! When the Flintstones roamed the caves of our earliest ancestors, they survived only because of their stress capability. When some large animal was eyeing you, licking its lips in anticipation of a tasty treat, you needed the extra energy and power that came from high stress levels. All your energy was shunted into your arms and legs, and away from repair of your vital organs, so that you could run or fight. Once the crisis was over, your nervous system returned to normal and all was well.
However, when your stress levels skyrocket because you've been called to the Big Boss's office and you're afraid of being laid off, you don't discharge those stress hormones and chemicals. Instead cortisol and other such harmful and even deadly chemicals linger on in your blood stream, wreaking havoc with your body. If this goes on for years – and it almost always does – illness and disability is a highly likely result.
So here are five simple, easy, natural ways to reduce stress – and they won't cost you much of anything.
#1: Your breath: simply put your attention on your breath. You don't have to try to "control" your breath or change it or affect it in any way. You're simply taking your attention off your churning mind and on to the rhythm and calmness of your breath. Yes, your Monkey Mind will continue to chat and drag your attention away, but that doesn't matter. Don't get upset or frustrated. Simply peacefully bring your attention again and again to your breath. Your entire body and mind – your bodymind – will calm down.
#2: If you can, walk barefoot in the grass. The earth has an electrical charge that boosts your immune system and gives you a much larger supply of life-saving antioxidants, as well as calming your nerves.
#3: I have a tool called a "bonger". It's a hard rubber ball attached to a metal handle about a foot long and it's for massaging areas of your body that are hard to reach. But a plain old tennis ball will work equal wonders, even though it's not as convenient. It's especially relaxing to put your tennis ball under your feet and roll them around. Also, roll your ball between your hands. The entire field of reflexology is based on the understand that all kinds of nerves end in our hands and feet and massaging them is extremely relaxing.
#4: Have you ever tried dry skin brushing? It's wonderful and we have an entire article on it linked in the sentence before. If you've ever been tempted, be sure to check it out. You will feel luscious after a few days.
#5: I love kale – but I don't like the hard stalks. Ditto broccoli. But these veggies and others like them are powerhouses of nutrition and can be easily made into a drinkable broth that is simply loaded with all kinds of vitamins and minerals.
These five ways of relieving stress are do-able, inexpensive, simple and actually pleasurable. I use all five of them so I KNOW that you will feel better for using any of these methods.

About me
Welcome to my Web page. I am happy to have this chance to introduce myself. I feel very fortunate to work at Kaiser Permanente because of my wonderful colleagues and patients, and look forward to meeting you.
I grew up in Iowa and received my bachelor's degree at the University of Iowa. (Go Hawks!) Then I moved out to California for podiatry school. I very much enjoyed not having to scrape ice off my car windshield six months out of the year, so I stayed in California. I did my first two years of residency at the VA Palo Alto teaching hospital, and then another year at Kaiser Permanente in Sacramento. It was there that I realized how much I believed in the integrated medical system Kaiser Permanente provides, and I feel fortunate to have been able to make this my professional home.
About my practice
I enjoy all aspects of podiatric care, from ingrown toenails to trauma and reconstructive surgery.
How I thrive
I try to stay mentally and physically fit. I do my best to go to the gym daily. I run, spin, and lift weights. What I look forward to the most is my nightly walks with my husband and two dogs.

Former You Say Party! We Say Die! singer Becky Ninkovic releases her solo album Woe.
Becky Ninkovic
Woe | Paper Bag Records
When You Say Party! We Say Die! drummer Devon Clifford collapsed on stage in Vancouver in 2010 the punk/dance band were rising stars. After Clifford died from the brain hemorrhage he suffered, the closely knit band called it quits. Singer Becky Ninkovic felt the loss of her friend profoundly. The press release accompanying the album says she "found herself deep in a mental health crisis triggered by trauma and grief."
Her debut solo release, Woe, is a collection of 10 tunes that have been in the making for a long time.
From dealing with losses to becoming a parent, the songs on the record weren't really produced with an album release as the goal. But music has a way of healing and artists have a need to share, so now the album is available to all to enjoy. It's a very different ride than her earlier band's work, and neither partying nor passing appear to have any part in the process.
Here are five things to know about Woe:
1. In the Beginning
The opening tune is a deeply moody song with an undulating, sparse beat and whispery, chanted vocal that paints a clear sense of meditation in the lyrics such as Now we lay/Aware of our bodies/Knowledge on our tongue/Awake in the darkness. So, yeah, not exactly a feel-good piece but one that fans of later period Siouxsie and the Banshees will certainly appreciate.
2. Therapeutic verses
From declaring that 'I will not carry your pain anymore' (The Carrier) to 'I'm the one you called when no one was at home' (So Low) and others, there is a true sense of pain pervading the material. You can hear her working through it in each tune as the stark arrangements and big, open atmosphere of the production sort of leaves you with the impression that you are listening to someone's inner thoughts. Very effective and pretty much perfect melancholy rainy-day music.
3. The Drums
The song that sounds the most like her old band is this mutant funk groove with its staggered verses and made-for-group sing-along chorus. There are some very cool synth drops and a child's voice that turn up at the end of the song. The next song, Happy Healthy, is a call-and-response between Ninkovic and, presumably, her daughter, that has been given an ambient studio sheen.
4. Nordic vibe
About halfway through the record, it occurs that this could fit in nicely with artists such as Bjork, Samaris and other female vocalists with a penchant for spartan soundscapes and testimonial lyrics. Yes, you could call it more mature pop and there is nothing wrong with that. The video for The Carrier also reinforces the artier side of what the artist is into. It's a very cool piece.
5. Playing live
Ninkovic is not only back in the business of making and releasing music, she is also getting back into live performing. Her Facebook page says the Becky Ninkovic Debut Album Release Party! takes place Aug. 24, 8 p.m., at 100 Braid Studios in New Westminster.
A$AP Ferg
Floor Seats EP | Sony
More upbeat trap from the Harlem rapper whose platinum-selling albums have all featured incredibly popular singles that lock in your head. This nine-song EP is no different, with a couple of obvious winners in the somewhat ridiculous Butt Naked and Drake-y Ride. But the genre is pretty limiting in the end and this could have been a much more EP-length release and benefited from it.
Jeremie Albino
Hard Time | Sleepless
This Toronto-born Filipino/French Canadian soul/blues shouter was all set up to become an organic farmer in Prince Edward County, but fortunately started to write music. His debut opens with the knockout punch of Last Night that sounds like a lost Sun Records side from the rockabilly era. And he doesn't just motor on one gear either, as the slow folk of Amelia or country boogie of Hard Time make clear. Catch him in Vancouver at the Westward Music Festival on Sept. 15 at the Vogue Theatre. Tickets and info at eventbrite.ca.
Red Hearse
Red Hearse | Sony
The grouping together of Sam Dew, Jack Antonoff and Sounwave was sure to produce some pretty slick and sexy sounds and the group's debut doesn't disappoint. It's full of the sort of R&B electronica that the airwaves love of late. Chances are they will be embracing songs such as Half Love, with its Prince-like vocal, gated drum beats and funky break. It's a pretty instant like, but might not hold the test of repeated plays.
Redd Kross
Beyond the Door | Merge
Beloved by fans and critically adored, this band — fronted by brothers Jeff and Steven McDonald — deserves credit for longevity alone. But writing gems such as the opener The Party, which could be a missing Sunset Strip-era psychedelic garage pop classic, makes listening to the band's latest a blast. Where some bands want to get all serious and deep, songs such as Fighting, Punk II or the Question Mark and the Mysterions-style The Party Underground are there to smile and bang your head along to. Covering Sparks When Do I Get to Sing My Way is pretty awesome too. Basically, Redd Kross rocks.

The Charleston Historical Society will co-sponsor its next lecture at the Karpeles Manuscript Museum at 68 Spring Street on Thursday, March 25, 2010, at 7:00 PM. The lecture, entitled, "Charleston and its Irish: De Valera in the Holy City" will be presented by Stephen J. White, Sr. It will summarize some of his recent research and writings on one of the milestones local Irish history. The lecture is free and open to the public.
Eamon De Valera arrived in Charleston in early April of 1920. He had traveled to the United States from the newly proclaim Republic of Ireland in an attempt to gain diplomatic recognition for and raise money to support his fledgling nation. Escorted by a select committee in a parade down King Street, he received a spectacular welcome led by Charleston's first Irish Catholic mayor, John P. Grace, and most members of the city council which granted him "Freedom of the city." He was celebrated at a sumptuous banquet at the grand Charleston Hotel, and applauded at speeches given to enthusiastic audiences at both the Garden Theater and the Academy of Music. This subject will be expanded upon in greater detail in a much larger book on the Irish story in Charleston.
Stephen Jennings White, Sr. is a native of Charleston who attended Cathedral Day School and Bishop England High School. He is a 1975 graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he was a history and philosophy major. He spent several years teaching in local high schools before going on to graduate work. In 1981 he received an MA in history from the University of Virginia. Continuing his doctoral studies he also taught there for five years as a graduate assistant and instructor. He went on to complete all of his course work and oral comprehensive examinations towards the doctorate—finishing all but the dissertation (ABD). He worked for three years as a research assistant at the Papers of George Washington Editing Project at the University of Virginia. He has taught at St. Andrew's School in Boca Raton, Florida, at the College of Charleston, the Citadel, and Trident Technical College. He worked for three years in the Admissions Office at the College of Charleston, and for four additional years as an Academic Advisor in the Office of Academic Advising and Planning at CofC. In 1995 he completed a Masters in Public Administration (MPA) in the University of Charleston/University of South Carolina joint program. He has taught in the History Department of the College of Charleston, served as Museum Historian, and currently as the Executive Director of the Karpeles Manuscript Museum. He is also the founder and director of the Charleston Historical Society. Most recently he was an organizing co-chair of the "Kilkenny to Carolina" conference in March of 2009.
For more information about this lecture and all future lectures, call Stephen White at the Charleston Historical Society at (843) 723-3398, or at the Karpeles Museum at (843) 853-4651.

United States District Court, D. Utah, Central Division
April 26, 2018
REDMOND, INCORPORATED, a Utah corporation Plaintiff,v.WILLOW CREEK SALT, INC., a Utah corporation; and JESSE P. NIELSEN, an individual; Defendants.
case arises from a claim of copyright and trademark
infringement, false advertising, trademark dilution and
violations of the Utah Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices
Act. There are two motions before the court: Plaintiff's
Motion for Partial Dismissal of Counterclaims filed on
November 30, 2017 and Defendants' Motion for Summary
Judgment filed on January 2, 2018. Plaintiff is claiming that
the second, third, fifth, and sixth counterclaims fail and
should be dismissed. Defendants' summary judgment motion
seeks dismissal of Plaintiff's complaint stating they are
not in violation of any of Plaintiff's trademarks or
protected copyrights.
has an extensive rock-salt formation in Sanpete and Sevier
Counties. The open-cut salt mines near Redmond, Utah have
produced rock salt on a commercial basis for many years.
Plaintiff Redmond Inc. ("Redmond") and its
predecessors in interest have been in the salt and mineral
business for fifty years. Redmond owns the registered
trademark "REDMOND" on the Principal Register of
the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for various salt-based
agricultural feed products, nutritional supplements for
animals and table salt. Defendant Willow Creek ("Willow
Creek") is a corporation organized and existing under
the laws of the State of Utah, and states its principal place
of business is in Redmond, Utah. Defendants developed a
website, business cards, and advertisements containing
information which included a logo for Willow Creek Salt Co.,
which had "REDMOND, UT" in red lettering beneath
it. After Redmond complained of the similarity to their
alleged Trademark, Willow Creek changed the coloring of the
lettering to tan. Willow Creek states they are only
demonstrating the geographic location and origin of their
business and products. Redmond objects to Willow Creek's
use of "Redmond" in any capacity under their
logos and on their website.
filed a motion for an order dismissing the second, third,
fifth and sixth counterclaims filed by Willow Creek against
Redmond pursuant to Rule 12(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of
Civil Procedure. Willow Creek has voluntarily withdrawn
its sixth counterclaim. Redmond claims that Willow Creek has
failed to set forth actionable facts to support each claim.
pleading must contain "a short and plain statement of
the claim showing that the pleader is entitled to
relief." Fed.R.Civ.P. 8(a)(2). "To survive a
motion to dismiss, a complaint must contain sufficient
factual matter, accepted as true, 'to state a claim to
relief that is plausible on its face.'"
Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678 (2009)(quoting
Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 570
(2007)). The plausibility standard requires "more than
a sheer possibility that a defendant has acted unlawfully.
Where a complaint pleads facts that are 'merely
consistent with' a defendant's liability, it
'stops short of the line between possibility and
plausibility of entitlement to relief.'"
Id. (Quoting Twombly, 550 U.S. at 557).
Creek alleges in its second counterclaim that Redmond has
engaged in "naked licensing" practices and thus
abandoned any valid trademark. This court finds that Willow
Creek has plead sufficient facts to overcome a motion to
dismiss and that genuine questions of fact exist as to this
counterclaim three, Willow Creek alleges that Redmond has
engaged in unfair competition and false advertising under the
Lanham Act § 43(a). This court finds that there are
sufficient facts alleged to overcome a motion to dismiss but
that there are additional facts alleged in their response.
The court therefore grants Willow Creek leave to amend its
counterclaim to include additional facts that are alleged.
Creek's fifth counterclaim is for declaratory judgment of
invalidity and unenforceability of copyrights. This court
finds that there are not sufficient facts alleged to show any
invalidity or unenforceability of copyrights and therefore
also grants Willow Creek leave to amend its fifth
counterclaim or voluntarily withdraw it.
have filed a motion for summary judgment seeking dismissal of
Plaintiff's Complaint arguing that their use of
"Redmond" and all associated references thereto
is a protected geographic exception to any alleged Trademark
violation and that their business and advertising materials
do not infringe on any protected copyright. Summary judgment
is appropriate "if the pleadings, depositions, answers
to interrogatories, and admissions on file, together with the
affidavits, if any, show that there is no genuine issue as to
any material fact and that the moving party is entitled to a
judgment as a matter of law." Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(c). Given
the state of the case and that discovery has yet to be
conducted, the summary judgment motion is denied as premature
to allow discovery with leave for the parties to file
additional motions as deemed appropriate at a later time.
For the
foregoing reasons, Plaintiffs Motion for Partial Dismissal of
Counterclaims is denied and the
court grants Defendants 30 days to amend its third and fifth
counterclaims as stated above and Defendants' ...

The Utility Agenda
Indiana's major utility companies (Duke, AEP, IPL, Vectren, NIPSCO) provide retail electric service essential to the health and vitality of Indiana, its economy, and its citizens. It is a business that has public interest mandates, and they have been granted state franchised monopolies that protect them from competition and guarantee them an opportunity for profit in exchange for a requirement they provide adequate and reliable electricity service at the lowest reasonable cost to the public.
However, once local utilities are now part of growing corporate empires that stretch over many states. As a result, the public service aspect of their business has virtually disappeared. Moreover, the lobbying efforts of these monopoly utilities are erasing the regulatory and legal balancing act between utilities and ratepayers interests.
Significant deregulation occurred during the 1990s under the pretense of competition. Ratepayers were going to have a choice of supplier and those owning power plants would compete for customers. What happened, however, was further consolidation of the industry and entrenching of monopolies who gamed the deregulated system to receive windfall profits. The manipulation of gas markets and electric wholesale markets continues on a smaller, but still, detrimental scale today.
Indiana avoided the catastrophe of near total deregulation the utility industry won in other states. However, Indiana's utility industry has found ways to force, through law and regulation, virtual (or backdoor) deregulation.
CAC, with the critical and necessary support of its members and other citizens, has kept the floodgates from opening. However, as a spokesperson for some of Indiana's industrial energy consumers once quipped, the current utility deregulation approach is "like being nibbled to death by ducks."
Since 2002, Indiana's large gas and electric utilities have aggressively implemented the following strategies:
- Recover costs from ratepayers as quickly and automatically as possible;
- Reduce or eliminate regulatory oversight of planning, revenue, and profits;
- Create new incentives on top of their cost-plus rates to increase their rate of return (profit) for making investments they are already obligated to do under the law.
Some of the ways utilities do this are:

With the launch of Panasonic's Lumix DMC-GF3, the company's smallest interchangeable-lens camera just got even more compact and lighter while maintaining a strong set of features. Surely there has to be compromises?
Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF3 review
Build and handling
The external dimensions of the GF3 measure 107.5×67.1x32mm, excluding protrusions. When used with the 14mm pancake lens, the size difference between this and Panasonic's flagship compact camera, the Lumix DMC-LX5, is barely distinguishable. The GF3 is larger by the smallest of margins, which is no mean feat considering the GF3 holds a much larger sensor. Between the GF3 and the Sony NEX-C3, the NEX-C3 is slightly smaller.
It is clear that the main talking point of the GF3 is its tiny size. It is so small, in fact, that the circumference of a lens like the 14-140mm is larger than the height of the camera body. As such, the body curves elegantly around the mount to fit such a lens in, and therefore make the camera's use with a tripod possible.
The body feels solid enough, housed in a tough and lightweight aluminium casing, with grooves for thumb and hand moulded to a natural holding shape. It rests beautifully in the hand, and it is only when larger lenses such as the 14-140mm optic are mounted that the other hand is needed for extra support.
As well as the reduction in size and weight and the change of shape, there is a new control wheel. This complements the touchscreen very effectively, giving two options for navigating menus and shooting settings. The shooting mode can be selected via the new GUI menu. This is like having a shooting mode dial, but it is on the touchscreen instead of the top-plate, as with advanced camera bodies. Modes can be selected by touch or via the control wheel. Consequently, the GF3 is very quick to handle.
It comes as no surprise that certain sacrifices have been made. The most obvious is the omission of a hotshoe mount, meaning there is no option to use an external flashgun or viewfinder. It is a bold step for Panasonic, and a tricky one, as this may well be enough to put some people off the GF3 – especially those who desire creative off-camera flash or a viewfinder in bright conditions. A flash has not been sacrificed completely, though, as a pop-up unit is positioned centrally on the body above the lens, with a GN of 6m @ ISO 100.

Chinese delegation in Tanzania to explore business opportunities
Tuesday February 12 2019
Dar es Salaam. A delegation of businesspeople from Hong Kong, the People's Republic of China, has visited Tanzania to explore various investment opportunities in Tourism, Agriculture, Health and Industrial sectors, to mention a few.
The delegation, which consists of seven representatives of Chinese business communities, is in the country since February 10. During their stay, they had the opportunity to hold talks with managements of various relevant investment authorities including Tanzania Investment Centre (TIC) and the Export Processing Zone Authority (EPZA) to discuss issues related to investments.
"We are delighted to receive detailed information about the investment opportunities in Tanzania. I can assure you that we will come back to invest in the agro-processing factories, particularly the cashew nut processing industries," said Jessica So, a delegation member, during their visit to the TIC on Tuesday, February 12, 2019.
At TIC, the Chinese delegates held a meeting with the minister of State in the Prime Minister's Office, responsible for Investment, Ms Angellah Kairuki. Among others, the minister reaffirmed the government's commitment to create a conducive environment to enable domestic and foreign investors to explore various investment opportunities and establish businesses.
"The government is determined to provide requisite incentives in order to make sure such proposed investments become successful," promised Ms Kairuki.
Among other participants, the meeting was also attended by TIC top officials including executive director Geoffrey Mwambe and John Mnali, the director of Investment Promotion.
Referring to the rapid increase in Foreign Direct Investments (FDIs) in Tanzania, the minister pointed out that it would create direct and indirect jobs to Tanzanians and foster the country's socioeconomic development through foreign exchange.

Publish-Morin, Path Will get Chatty
Korea's Kakao is making an enormous change to Path eight months after buying the social app. Path individuals can now message one another contained in the app, somewhat than having to open the separate Path Speak app. It might be a transfer to invigorate customers, and streamline the product.
Whereas constructing a whole companion app for chat labored for Fb, splintering customers between Path and Path Speak may need been a more durable promote for a much less vibrant social community. Maybe Path will merge the 2 apps quickly. That would bolster the worth of Path's premium subscription to sticker packs and digital camera filters. The extra locations its apparent for individuals to make use of these contained in the Path ecosystem, the extra prepared some could be to pay.
Dave Morin, former Path CEO, declined to remark, saying he's not concerned with Path anymore. LinkedIn says he accomplished his time there in June, as soon as the hand-off to Daum Kakao was full.
The Korean social big lately changed its co-CEOs with a brand new one named Ji Hoon "Jimmy" Rim. He's tasked with making Daum Kakao's merchandise extra related overseas. Making Path a one-cease store for interacting with shut associates might give the app a lift in markets the place Fb has develop into such a core utility to that it's overloaded with distant acquaintances you wouldn't need to chat with.

Happy First Day of Fall! I'm so excited. Ok, ok, what could I possibly be excited about? Florida has one season…summer, year round, with the occasional 20 days a year of cold weather. Still, from the first day of fall until about March 1st, I'm in my element. The colors, the sounds, the smells…all of it delights me. Pumpkin Spice everything (although the Spam seems to be a little much), boots, football, and winter clothing, I'm excited enough to turn the AC down cold enough to pretend I'm experiencing fall weather. If I'm feeling really frisky, I'll turn my fake fireplace on in my bedroom and really use my imagination. How did I spend my day? Well, I went to the gym and ran errands and then came home and cooked a meal for a neighbor who needed a little extra help today. Kindness matters and the smallest gesture can sometimes make the biggest impact.
What is your favorite season? Are you like me and now totally in your element or do you wish summer would hang around? Share your thoughts in the comments section and Friday I will draw a name to win one of my favorite candles from Bath and Body Works (Sweater Weather and Autumn are a tie so it will be a surprise). If you share this post on social media, I will enter your name in twice for every share. Make sure you enter your Twitter handle in the comments so I can follow you back!
Happy Monday!

A personal mobility device (PMD) user who allegedly attempted to hit a man with his e-scooter after a dispute was charged in court on Thursday (24 May) on one count of causing hurt by a rash act and one count of intentionally causing harassment.
Chew Hup Seng, 37, is said to have ridden his e-scooter along a narrow corridor on the fifth floor of the Keat Hong Community Club on 24 July last year, resulting in a near collision with Pedro JR Garcia Mondejar, 48.
This was after the two had an argument around 10.02am at the community club's multi-purpose hall, during which Chew allegedly pointed his middle finger at Mondejar and used an expletive on the latter. He also allegedly accused Mondejar of bringing "shame to his country" and told the latter that he "should take the next budget flight back to his country the next day".
In court on Thursday, Chew, a Singaporean, said that he is bipolar and intends to engage a private lawyer so that he can plead guilty. The prosecution offered to proceed on one charge while taking the other into consideration.
Also charged in court on Thursday were an e-scooter user and a cyclist who collided with two elderly pedestrians in separate incidents.
Singaporean Ho Jun Wei, 17, was charged with one count of a rash act causing grievous hurt after he rammed into Wong Ah Jee with his e-scooter, causing the 78-year-old to fall face down. Wong sustained multiple fractures to his face and nose.
Ho was riding on a pavement along Yishun Ring Road near Yishun Junior College at around 3.31pm on 17 February this year when the incident occurred.
Appearing in court with his mother, Ho said he intends to plead guilty. He will be back in court on 7 June.
In the third case, Sathappan Anbarasan, 33, was riding a bicycle along a footpath at Simei Street 1 towards Jalan Pelatok when he collided into 73-year-old Ng Yock Chun on 21 September last year at around 8.30pm. As a result of the crash, Ng sustained a four-part fracture to her right shoulder.
Sathappan, an Indian national, told the court that he intends to plead guilty and apply for legal aid. He will return to court on 31 May.
For a rash act causing grievous hurt, the maximum jail term is four years, and/or a fine of up to $10,000. For a negligent act causing grievous hurt, an offender may be jailed up to two years, and/or fined up to $5,000, or with both. For rash act causing hurt, an offender faces up to six months jail, and/or a fine of up to $2,500.

They Never Listen is a tome found in Adventure Mode of Diablo III. It is dropped by Zoltun Kulle when the Nephalem uses Kanai's Cube successfully for the first time.
It reads as follows:
They never listen. The small minds that surround me ignore my greatness — and then kill me! First the Horadrim, those plodding fools. Then the nephalem! Imagine if that one had listened? We would have angels and demons for servants. We'd be riding them like horses. Perhaps I am being unkind. It's not that their minds are so small, it's just that mine is so large.
