Sen. Bernie Sanders may not be endorsing his own son's congressional bid, but he rallied on a hot Monday night in Maryland to fire up voters for Ben Jealous' campaign for governor.
The senator known for his reluctance to endorse politicians joined the former NAACP president outside an early voting center in Silver Spring, Maryland.
"I am proud to be here because Ben is one of those leaders who is not going to be nibbling around the edges, but understands we have got to transform the economic and political life of this country,'' Sanders said in a plaza outside the voting center as a crowd of supporters cheered. Jealous stood by his side.
Although Sanders isn't endorsing his son Levi's bid for a New Hampshire congressional seat, he has endorsed Jealous. Jealous has been tied in recent polls with Prince George's County Executive Rushern Baker in Maryland's Democratic primary to challenge popular Republican Gov. Larry Hogan in a state where Democrats outnumber Republicans 2-1.
Jealous and Sanders share support for tuition-free college and expanding Medicare to all. Sanders also praised Jealous for supporting a $15 minimum wage and equal pay for equal work. Sanders also said he wanted to see Jealous become governor to be a loud voice against President Donald Trump in nearby Washington.
"And when the president of the United States continues to do outrageous things, like separating children from their parents, I want Mr. Trump to hear Ben Jealous' loud voice,'' Sanders said as supporters, many of them young adults, cheered.
The forced separation of migrant children from their parents fueled a weekend of intense criticism of Trump's immigration policies.
Sanders endorsed California Rep. Jimmy Gomez last year in his successful congressional campaign. He also endorsed Virginia's Tom Perriello, who failed to win the Democratic nomination for governor there.
Jealous has received endorsements from other progressive lawmakers, including Sens. Cory Booker of New Jersey and Kamala Harris of California.
Baker has been endorsed by Maryland officials who have worked with him during his two terms as county executive of Maryland's second-most-populated county and before that, when he was a delegate in the Maryland General Assembly. Sen. Chris Van Hollen and Attorney General Brian Frosh have endorsed Baker, as has former Gov. Martin O'Malley.
Polls have shown Jealous and Baker are in a close race, with considerable distance between the other candidates in a crowded Democratic primary for governor. Early voting began Thursday in Maryland and runs through this Thursday. The primary is June 26.

Speaking of streetcars, did you know OKC's first streetcar system was actually installed more than 110 years ago? Putting in a streetcar system in the early "aughts" was difficult, but as a great man once said, "if you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything."
All the "Back to the Future" streetcar jokes aside, in the city's early days, OKC's increasing density made public mass transit a part of its destiny. As Oklahoma City continued to experience ridiculous levels of growth after the Land Run (OKC's population more than doubled – twice -- from 1890 to 1910), something other than horses and their requisite, er, "crab apples" was needed to get people and goods around the increasingly crowded urban environment in a clean, safe manner. City leaders had no interest in seeing citizens make like a tree and get out of here, so familiar names John Shartel and Anton Classen formed the Metropolitan Railway Company in 1902, and the following year electric-powered streetcars replaced beefarino-fueled raw horsepower as the transportation mode of choice for Oklahoma Citians. By 1911, interurban lines to El Reno, Norman and Guthrie were established, along with Moore and Edmond.
Want more? Our friends at the Association of Central Oklahoma Governments (ACOG) have a cool interactive historic streetcar route map on their website, with equally awesome photos taken at different points along the various routes. Great Scott! Check it out, and get hyped for the MAPS 3 streetcar.

By Jim Provance
The Ohio Supreme Court on Wednesday unanimously sided with the state against the city of Toledo in a decision that could cost the city millions of dollars if it continues to use stationary traffic cameras.
Lucas County Common Pleas Court and the 6th District Court of Appeals previously found state lawmakers could not enact laws designed to financially penalize Toledo and other cities that operate traffic cameras. But in the decision Wednesday, the Supreme Court found those lower court rulings infringed upon the lawmaking authority of the General Assembly.
"Here, the trial court lacked authority to enjoin enforcement of the spending provisions relating to traffic cameras enacted in [House Bill] 64 because no action has been filed challenging their constitutionality and no court has found them unconstitutional," Justice Sharon Kennedy wrote.
The justice added that a lower court permanent-injunction from 2015 could not prevent state lawmakers from enacting new laws related to traffic cameras, because the "separation-of-powers doctrine precludes a court from enjoining the General Assembly from exercising its legislative power. ..."
The financial penalties enacted in 2015 were never enforced as a result of the lower-court injunction.
Toledo never separately challenged the spending provisions' constitutionality, but city Law Director Dale Emch said the city now will file a new lawsuit to do just that.
"The state continues to penalize Toledo and other cities for their traffic-law enforcement cameras, in effect making roads less safe," he said. "They are penalizing Toledo for making decisions as to what's best for our city."
Through May, the city collected $800,862 from stationary red-light cameras, for which it budgeted $1.8 million in revenue for 2018. By comparison, handheld speed-enforcement cameras -- not affected by the state restrictions -- brought in $2.1 million through May toward the $5.7 million budgeted.
Revenue from the cameras goes into the city's $255 million general fund.
City spokesman Ignazio Messina said the possible loss of revenue is something Mayor Wade Kapszukiewicz and city council members will have to evaluate, if the state ultimately prevails.
He said the city will continue to use the cameras in the immediate future.
"We are planning on asking for a new injunction," he said. "If for whatever reason, the court denies the request for an injunction, then the question of continuing to use them will have to be addressed."
The Supreme Court last year in a different case ruled in favor of Toledo and other traffic-camera cities by finding they had the constitutional home-rule authority to operate such programs. In the process, it struck down portions of a state law that imposed restrictions on how such programs operated.
Among those restrictions was a requirement that a police officer be present to witness the violation caught on camera, something the city contended would make the program economically infeasible to continue.
But the case decided by the Supreme Court this week revolved around a subsequent budget provision to reduce state aid to cities that did not comply with those restrictions. The reduction in Local Government Fund distributions would have offset the amount of fines contained in civil citations issued for violations, regardless of whether the cities collected all those fines.
That set up the potential for cities to lose money on the camera programs.
"We are pleased the Ohio Supreme Court agreed with our arguments that there are significant separation-of-powers issues that arise when a court attempts to enjoin the General Assembly from enacting legislation," said Dan Tierney, spokesman for Attorney General Mike DeWine.
Mr. Tierney deferred questions on whether the current law will now be enforced to the General Assembly.
State Rep. Bill Seitz (R., Cincinnati), a primary force behind the original budget language and a new bill revising it, said he doesn't believe the court's decision will result in the retroactive loss of millions in revenue for Toledo. He said he would prefer to wait for Senate passage of a new House-passed bill that does not tie the revenue to compliance with a state law that has been partially invalidated.
In March, the House of Representatives passed House Bill 410, which would withhold an amount equal to the fines actually collected rather than simply issued. That bill is pending in the Senate.
"This is a real shot across the bow to places like Toledo and Dayton that have been scofflaws for many years and have exalted their local situations above what the legislature believes is appropriate public policy," Mr. Seitz said. "They had better tread very carefully, because after [House Bill] 410 passes, we will know whether this is about safety as the cities contend or is in fact about revenue."
Mr. Emch disagreed with the contention that the cameras are all about cash. He said the cameras force drivers to think more about the rules of the road and drive more carefully.
"It certainly makes me more conscious of my driving as I'm going through those areas," he said. "It makes all drivers a little more aware of their speedometer and think before a yellow light as to whether to push and go through."
Judge William A. Klatt of the Columbus-based 10th District Court of Appeals sat on the case in the place of Justice Terrence O'Donnell, who had recused himself.
Justice Pat DeWine participated despite the fact that his father, Mr. DeWine, brought the appeal on the state's behalf. He has taken the position that he does not have to recuse himself unless his father personally argues the case.

Poll: Next season's left winger
26 comments:
- pep said...
You can vote until Friday 12 pm bt. Multiple votes are not counted.
- 01 April, 2009
i really feel that my vote counts in this poll, especially because it was worth 33% of the total votes.
- 01 April, 2009
- pep said...
Enjoy that feeling while it lasts... :)
- 01 April, 2009
Iniesta should of course be the one. What are people thinking??
- 01 April, 2009
...ribery is very good,but for me,there's no better option than silva...while ribery is playing for munich and becoming a star,silva is more the guy who would suit in at barca as a good add to messi and etoo with more teamplaying skills then ribery...ribery is best and feels best when you let him play freely and give him many space,like dinho had,what could be difficult with players like xavi,iniesta or messi...silva showed how good he add with xavi and iniesta at the eurocup...while ribery struggles with france...silva is versatile,agile,fast like ribery too and also knows how to play in barcas system,that is also played by the spanish team too...the other thing is that a frenchman never improved at barca...but no problem if he would prove me wrong...
- 01 April, 2009
- Vj said...
Ahemm.. 'frenchman never improved at Barca' ?? Thierry Henry? if you don't call this season an improvement over the last, I don't know what is an improvement.
BTW it seems that Ribery is staying at Bayern while Silva is almost surely leaving Valencia.. lets see what Txiki does at the end of the season..
- 01 April, 2009
- sashi said...
Silva is a far far cheaper option and he is in par wit Ribery wit respect to skills... and he knows how to play in Spain... so, logically Silva would be a better buy unless Txiki plans on splashing cash on Ribery...
- 01 April, 2009
guys, ribery is good but he would never score and assists as much as henry is doing.
i would love to see aguero filling that position. his abilities allows pep to teach him the left wing position like he and rijkard did with henry. if eto'o doesnt play as a striker for different reasons than aguero could play his position. that guy is worth gold.
- 01 April, 2009
silva is 3-4 years younger than ribery. that would put him a little in a better position. but i don't know if he is really as agile as ribery is. both silva and ribery aren't scoring or assisting wingers. there are a lot better out there. what about robinho? i'm not really sure if he's a happy at manchester. he is currently the best left winger in the world. what about his buyout clause? maybe he would be pleased to play for barca because he left madrid in a bad way. what about some revenge :)
- 01 April, 2009
the person who barca buys would be next season`s left winger because it does not matter what anyone of you say for barcelona has the final word on who to purchase and who not to buy
- 01 April, 2009
So smart anonymous. we didn't figure that out. DOUHH!!
- 01 April, 2009
Robinho? Give me a brake.The best left winger in the world? in what? Drinking and using drugs maybe...
- 01 April, 2009
- Shubham said...
I think Ribery would be perfect for Barca for the sheer pace and talent of the man. All we'll need is a LB (Evra??) and a GK for an unbeatable team.
Alves-Messi on the right and Evra-Ribery on the left with Xavi-Etoo in the centre. Yaya, Puyol and Iniesta plugging the other gaps and creating more for the attackers... would be splendid...
Silva wouldn't be too bad either, he already has an understanding with Xavi and Iniesta from the La Roja Furia team.
So Txiki, please get either of the two... and GK pleeeeeezzzz
- 01 April, 2009
@Tero: Have you ever seen Robinho playing soccer? He was maybe the best player in spain last season.
- 01 April, 2009
Silva made 4 goals and 4 assists in 23 games this season.
within the last years he played 163games and he made 23 goals and 18 assists.
i like him but that's really poor for a left winger.
- 01 April, 2009
Robinho 179 games, 50 goals and 28 assists
Henry 184 games, 103 goals and 29 assits
Ribery 167 games, 45 goals and 56 assists.
i thing silva would be the worst choice.
- 01 April, 2009
last one :)
messi 145 games, 73 goals and 38 assists
- 01 April, 2009
- Humankind said...
I agree with Anonymous. Robinho indeed might have been the best player in Spain last season. In my opinion he was the best. And to say that he abuses drugs and drink is ignorant, because with the right attitude and motivation, Robinho is arguably the best left winger in the world. He surely is more talented than Ribery. He is also more dangerous.
Some people will call me crazy or perhaps stupid but Robinho is world class when he is world class. Full stop.
I would love to see him at Barcelona. We would be unplayable with him and Messi on the wings. Nobody could defend that.
- 01 April, 2009
Gai Assulin is the real deal. If you watch a 'Barça Atletic' it's easy to see that he has something special. He will soon get the double nationality and I expect him to be playing for both Barça and Barça Atletic next season.
- 01 April, 2009
...the statistics above are nice,but...ribery's games also including games in turkey for gala and for marseille france...while silva played his games in la liga...and so many games,for a guy who's also eurocupwinner,isn't that bad at his age...to vj...have to say that henry very lately made a step forward...nice to see...this season seems to become a good one for him...but there were many like blanc,christanval,dugarry,petit,giuly a little wo were not at their best at barca...but f'it as long the team improves...to robinho...i'm not a big fan of babyboys...so b'please...ONE LOVE!!!
- 01 April, 2009
Barcelona need a LW than can also play as a striker, which is why Henry is perfect for Barcelona. With the front line constantly switching places, it would be hard for ribery or silva to to play as ST. Going by this season, the only other person that might be able to play the same way as Henry would be Villa, but he probably woundn't go out on the wing enough.
Henry > All.
- 01 April, 2009
Or what about iniesta on the left wing and Fabregas in midfield? Just puttin it out there!
- 01 April, 2009
I think we should use Henry next season too. If we sign a new winger then there are no spots avaliable for Gai in the next 5-10 years.
I've heard that Gai is really close to a PL-club (Chelsea), can anyone confirm/deny that rumour?
What we really need is a backup-keeper, leftback, backup-rightback and a new striker instead of Eto'o, this is the time to sell him. It would be the best for the club.
- 02 April, 2009
i agree with people wanting robinho,the lad is amazing and you can tell by watching him play with brazil national team.he would fit us perfectly ,he is better than ribery and cheaper .
i voted for silva,mainly because robinho option wasnt in the poll and i dint want to vote someone else.
also iniesta is not a pure winger,yes he can play there but he doesnt want to and he plays better in midfield.also we are more of a threat with iniesta on midfield and a left winger.
come on laporta bring robinho to barca.....funny thing is that the lad calmed down now,chilled his head and he is hungry for trophies,moving to city was a good move in order for barca to get him.lets see if we can do the henry + money trade for little roby. in my book robinho>henry>any player on that list any day
- 02 April, 2009
- maximi83 said...
Why do we always have to buy players?? We have the best youth system in the world so use them!!
My first choice would also be gai assulin!! great talented player! A little bit messi like. Hope he gets next year the spnish passport and will be promoted to the A team!
If not it would be a shame! So we would have enough people as forwards if everyone stys. Thats my opinion.
If pep really decides to buy a forward we should get agüero. Great young player with pretty much talent. I know that he is not a really winger but he has the physis and technique to play there.
- 02 April, 2009
...gai?...you people must be joking...if gai is good enough,he surely will find his way...but with his age of 17 years and b-football experiance in 2-3 years he could be an good add or more...did anyone of you specialists saw him playing in a-team games?...think not...not everyone is a messi...see bojan...

A number of different aging mechanisms constantly degrade mechanical components, electrical equipment and buildings. Fatigue cycles accelerate aging and can limit the remaining lifetime of components. Degradation may generate unexpected failures and could cause the blackout of essential systems. The availability and reliability of the plant are significantly reduced, in extreme cases plant safety might even be compromised.
The Plant Lifetime Management for Long-Term Operation (LTO) ensures the long-term profitability of your plant. Aging management focuses on safety-relevant components to eliminate safety-relevant events and support the license renewal process. Lifetime management expands system coverage in the plant to include availability-related components and equipment.
Our Plant Lifetime Management increases the reliability, availability and safety of the plant by implementing an optimum scope of maintenance, testing, monitoring and diagnostics, obsolescence management and efficient component repair and replacement.

Biowaste stands for discarded biodegradable material. This means it can be broken down into carbon dioxide, water, methane or simple organic molecules by micro-organisms under anaerobic and aerobic conditions. One of the main reasons why biowaste represents a threat to the environment is the production of methane during its decomposing in landfills. This environmental impact can be significantly reduced through separate collection and use of biowaste.
In terms of usage potential, meaning soil or energy recovery, biowaste is still largely underutilised. Employing traditional practices in recycling, reusing and composting can significantly decrease uncontrolled waste disposal, which is especially important in regions without access to formal collection services. Composting, for example, can even ensure the generation of good quality natural fertiliser, which is why this practice should be encouraged.

5 Reasons For Visiting the Netherlands in Spring
- Written by News Company
The Netherlands is a stunning part of Europe and according to Markus De Jong, travel expert at adviesjagers.nl Australians love to visit the Netherlands as part of their travels around Europe as many are of Dutch descent. Nowadays, a lot of Australians use it as a base to live, work and study thanks to a relatively straight forward visa process. Today we're going to look at why you should visit the Netherlands in the spring; one of the most beautiful times of the year in the country.
Tulips, Tulips, Tulips
The Netherlands is known across the world for its incredible display of tulips which you can only go and see during the spring months. The best place to go see them is in the Keukenhof, which is usually open from the first day of spring (March 21) to around mid-may. Here you can find millions of tulips planted across 32 hectares of land. Some displays have even been designed to look like a river running through the gardens. With over 800 varieties of tulips on display, you'll b sure to have an unforgettable experience.
It's the Perfect Time for Cruising the Canals
As the days begin to get a little longer and milder, there's no better way to explore The Netherlands than on one of its famous waterways. The 'Venice of the North' has endless options of rivers and canals that are open to exploration and offer calm and tranquil waters at this time of year. Bring along a picnic and spend the full day seeing the country from a different perspective.
Not only is seeing the windmills a great way to chill out and relax in the fresh spring air, it also makes for a pretty good Instagram shot too. We recommend visiting the windmills at Zaanse Schans or Kinderjik, these are both popular spots and are really authentic. The latter is actually a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is home to a variety of flora and fauna including some rare species of birds like the Purple Heron.
Great Weather
April is actually one of the driest months of the year in the Netherlands which makes it ideal for outdoor activities. Whether you want to roam the streets of Amsterdam, check out a local beach or go for a swim, there's plenty to keep you occupied in the great outdoors. You can always just sit back and relax on one of the outdoor patios of canal-side cafés and people watch. If you're looking to be a little more active, rent a bike as your transport for the day.
Street Parties
Every year, on April 27th the crowds descend on Amsterdam for the largest street party in the world to celebrate Kings Day. It's a great opportunity to learn about the rich history of the Dutch Monarchy and the atmosphere is something to rival Carnival in Rio. Just be sure to bring something orange to wear.

How to organize a place to read in the apartment? It is known that this requires a special, cozy atmosphere, for the creation of which you need to know some subtleties and tricks. Our review will help you create the perfect place for your favorite occupation. To completely immerse yourself in the world of the book, you need privacy. When there is no special room or cabinet for the library, you can read anywhere. However, a separate zone with a comfortable place forms a ritual of unhurried "absorption" of intellectual food. So, what do you need to know to create the perfect place to read?
Closer to the light - window sill
First of all, look for a secluded place. The main condition is silence and peace, so that you can stay with a tete-a-tete book. The most common place for reading is a wide window sill near the window. This place is well suited for daytime reading. For the eyes this is an excellent source of lighting. And relieve tension and relax after a long reading will help the view outside the window. For a comfortable stay on the windowsill, use decorative pillows. If you want, you can equip the place with shelves. The main thing is that this space does not conflict with the general style of the interior. As a bench, a window sill with a height of up to 45 centimeters will be convenient. If it is a little higher, then it can quite claim the role of a table, behind which it is comfortable to read, make notes, drink tea, coffee.
Balcony, terrace, loggia, attic
In good weather, the perfect place to readThere will be a balcony, a terrace or a loggia. A soft blanket and pillows will help create a cozy atmosphere. The attic has one positive feature - it adjusts to relaxation. To read books a lot of space is not needed. Do not be scared if the room is small. This will make the atmosphere chamber. Equip the attic with bookshelves, put a comfortable chair (chair, sofa) at the window. This place is the lightest. So you will get real pleasure from the reading process. Our opinion: - When you have only one room, the effect of intimacy in one space will be achieved using screens, open racks or bookcases. Knigomanam important to relax, immerse yourself in reading and as real as possible to imagine described in the work.
Which chair is better
You can read on anything: On a chair, bench, sofa, couch, but the most comfortable place is the chair. And it's even better when it's with a footrest. There are specially equipped models. If you do not have such an armchair, then the puff is the main contender for this role. It's good when the armchair has comfortable armrests. Designers offer non-standard versions of armchairs, equipped with a mini-library. They have additional storage space. Our opinion: - Choose any place that is convenient for you to read. It can be a leather armchair in the form of a throne, rocking chair, hanging lightweight design, chest or couch. The main thing is that it meets your comfort requests. If you do not use the footrest, place a soft mat in the chair area. The situation will become more comfortable and the feet will be warmer. So, you can immerse yourself in reading without experiencing any discomfort.
Everything is fine!
Books in the interior create a special atmosphere. It is important that they support a stylistic decision in the house and do not clutter up space. Choose them by color, which will make the room stylish. It's good when the bookshelves are next to the place for reading. When this is not possible, use baskets and boxes for books. So you can take a few books and not create a mess on the floor.
In friendship with the light
Think good lighting. After all, the burden on vision is serious. In addition to daylight, use additional fixtures, sconces, or a floor lamp with height adjustment. Choose incandescent lamps that are close to daylight. Bright directional light in the reading area is useful to those who read at night. Our opinion: - In order not to drop the shadow on the book by hand, it is recommended that the light source be installed on the left for right-handers and on the right for left-handed people. The main condition of lighting is that the light should fall on the pages of the text. It is recommended to create a place for reading in the interior with a light finish. A light surface can scatter light and reduce tension. Beacont.com, hongkiat.com, domidej.si, depo.ba, delcosingles.com, servicecentral.com.au

Consequences Of Non Compliance With Independent Audit Requirement
An important issue for companies in Turkey is the "Independent Audit" of their financial statements. However, as surely known, not all, but only some of the companies are subject to independent audit. According to the latest status, companies must retain independent auditors if they meet during two subsequent financial years at least two of the criteria below, either itself or together with its affiliates:
-A total assets value of TRY40,000,000 or above.
-A net sales revenue of TRY80,000,000 or above.
-200 employees or more.
So the requirements for being subject to an independent audit are actually obvious. But what says the law about the consequenses of non-compliance with independent audit requirements? In other words, what if a company reaches the abovementioned tresholds, but still do not appoint an independent auditor in accordance with the law? The answer to this question is not as obvious as it is about the requirements of being subject thereto.
There are two "clearly" regulated conseqences by the law: One provision stipulates that financial statements and the annual activity report of the board shall be deemed as null and void (TCC Art. 397/3) and the other one regulates that the board members of the company subject to independent audit shall be obliged to pay a judicial fine of 300 days to 400 days if they should not make a web-site with a content which is in accordance with the law (TCC Art. 1524/12). Side effects associated with the first sanction are following:
-Financial statements may not be submitted to financial institutions, which would have also the result that credits may not be granted;
-Board members may not be released for their activities in the relevant financial year;
-General assembly may not approve the financial statements, which would have also the result that the dividends may not be distributed to shareholders;
-Capital increase and decrease is not allowed.
Few months ago, the General Directorate of Internal Trade, which is entitled to audit and send circulars to trade registries has "created" a new sanction: Companies who did not appoint an independent auditor, even though they were supposed to do so, and did not registrate the resolution about the appointment of the independent auditor may not registrate any resolution of their Company. In this circular, the Directorate of Internal Trade has mentioned also that these companies shall be notified by the relevant trade registries and warned therewith to pay an administrative fine of TRY 4.000 if they should not comply with the independent audit requirements since TCC Art. 33 regulates that companies are obliged to pay this mentioned fine if they do not registrate an issue which is mandatory according to the TCC.
The reliance on Art. 33 of the TCC with regard to the application of the administrative fine may be acceptable since the law clearly regulates which companies are obliged to appoint an independent auditor and that the resolution about such appointment must be registrated with the trade registry. However, it is not understandable and it has no reliance on any provision of the law, that the trade registry may reject the registry of other issues, for example the appointment of a new board or signatory authories, with the grounding that a mandatory provision about an completely different issue has not been met. For example, it might be understood and would found a legal basis if the trade registry rejects the registry of a board resolution about the appointment of signatory authories, if the duty term of the board has expired.
It is also worth to be mentioned that the practise of the trade registry about the non-compliance to the law is not unique. For example, Art. 409 of TCC regulates that the ordinary general assembly must convene within 3 months as of the end of each financial year. However, we did not expierenced any "registry blockage" for Companies, which did not held an ordinary general assembly for years.
An interesting question about that issue is also after which moment the trade registry may reject the applications of a company, that has not appointed an independent auditor for the previous financial year. The law says that the independent auditor may be appointed until the last day of the subsequent financial year, f.e. 31st December of 2017 for the financial statements of 2016. So does that mean the Company may not request any registration after the 1st January of 2018? We are of the opinion that the trade registry will apply the registry blockage only to Companies, which have been already notified to remedy the non-compliance within 30 days about the independent auditor appointment.
As a final word, we would like to notice that it is a necessity of the principal of legality, that the practise of the trade registries has a legal basis in the law. Especially the regulations about the appointment of independent auditor and the audit itself must be revised since the lawmakers did not even published any regulation about the audit of financial statements of Companies, which do not reach the abovementioned tresholds and are therefore not subject to independent audit.

Country superstar George Strait is lending his voice pro bono for several TV and radio spots as part of a Comeback campaign, "Find Yourself in Rockport-Fulton," to help revitalize tourism after Hurricane Harvey wreaked destruction on the Rockport and Fulton communities Aug. 25, 2017.
The two TV commercials will begin airing June 18 on San Antonio TV stations and Austin, while the three radio spots will air in the Hill Country and New Braunfels. They were a collaborative effort created for the Rockport-Fulton Chamber of Commerce by San Antonio-based Helen Thompson Media, The Pulse Group of Austin, and Jeff Hunt and Andrew LaVanway of ICF of Fairfax, Va. In addition, Strait's "Back to Being Me" is played in the background of the TV commercials as he provides the voiceover.
"Hello everybody. This is George Strait, and I've traveled all over yet there's no place I'd rather be than right here in Texas," he says in the TV and radio spots. "One of my favorite places is the Rockport-Fulton area on the coast. Every time I cross over the Copano Bridge to see that beautiful bay, it feels like home. I hope you find yourself in Rockport, Texas soon."
View the TV spots here:
Betty Hattman, chairman of the Board of the Rockport-Fulton Chamber of Commerce, said the Come Back Campaign is a major step in the recovery process of the Gulf Coast communities.
"Tourism fuels the economy of Rockport-Fulton. Prior to the storm, direct spending numbers from tourism were reaching $101.1 million annually," Hattman said. "Tourism for Aransas County employs more than 1,300 people contributes $1.4 million to local government and $5 million to state government coffers. We are going to lose what businesses we have if we don't get the economy back flowing."
Paula Dean, chairman of the Tourism Development Council of the Rockport-Fulton Chamber of Commerce added that "the creative aspect of the campaign reveals the feeling in all of us as we describe the mystical, spiritual affection we have for the Rockport-Fulton area."

Social stereotype - a simplified, schematic, often distorted domestic point of view about any social object (group of man belonging to any society, and other). Various social groups, people communicating with each other, create certain social stereotypes. These stereotypes rarely occur from personal experience, people usually pick them up from their parents in childhood, from teachers, out of the group that owns, from the mass media sources. Stereotypes wear off, become blurred if people from the different groups start to cooperate more closely, learn more about each other, seeking common goals (Tu 2013, 2014). Well-known ethnic or national (ethnic) stereotypes are, for example, that the English are very polite, the Germans - pedantic, French - are light, Russians - wide, unpredictable soul people, and so on. Thus, the image of the interviewer, negotiation opponent is formed on the basis of stereotypes. How much is an accurate first impression of stereotypical image is complex issue. On the one hand, almost everyone adult, having an experience, can quite accurately under clothing, language, manners, behavior to describe his interviewer characteristics: psychological characteristics, age, social class, profession. However, it works most accurately on neutral situations, while in other, when people are interested in each other, higher or lower potential errors. And if the people (in this case the negotiators, the interlocutors, opponents) are more interested in each other - the higher is the probability of error (Gunia et al. 2014).
The perception of interviewer and possible errors of perception are determined by the following factors: superiority, attractiveness and approach to us.
Participants of business communication and business negotiations generally are not completely equal: they differ in their social status, life experience, intelligence and so on. The inequality of interlocutors and opponents, leads to perceptual errors resulting from the advantage factor.
This scheme is as follows: when we meet someone with some kind of advantage, we tend to assess him more positively than in the case if we would be equal in accordance with that parameter. On the contrary - if we have certain advantages against our interviewer, we underrate him and transfer our advantages to other our properties (parameters). Thus, the advantage is fixed by one parameter only, and self-overestimation (or underestimating) is moved to many properties. However, this scheme is activated only in case if there is significant advantage (Elahee, Brooks 2004; Fells 1993). How is determined advantage of other person, what criteria can be used? When we meet him for the first time, information about the participant provides: a) the clothing, the overall human image (glasses, hairstyle, jewelry); b) car, office equipment; c) behavior, manners (such as sitting, walking, language, etc.).
Attractiveness factor occurs when we evaluate the exterior - we like or do not like the other person. If we like him, we tend to keep him smarter, better, more interesting, and so on. Thus we overestimate many characteristics of the interviewer.
Approach to us factor works as follows: if the interviewer appreciates us very well, so we will evaluate him better. If the opinions and attitudes of interlocutors overlap more, the better they assess each other.
When we communicate with somebody who is already familiar - appear these interpersonal communication mechanisms: identification, empathy and reflection. Identification in business negotiations and business meetings - this is an unconscious identification with negotiator. In the case of identification interlocutor inserts himself mentally into the opponent's position and decides how he would behave in such a situation. Very close identification is empathy, that is, the ability to feel existence of the interlocutor, to empathize with his feelings, to enter into his inner world, to accept him all with his feelings and thoughts. Empathetic person knows how to understand others, interest in each other, to be tolerant. There are three forms of empathy: a) emotional empathy that is based on the projection, the ability to imitate motor and emotional reactions of another person; b) cognitive empathy that is based on intellectual mental processes: the search for analogies, comparison, etc.; c) prediction empathy, characterized by as a human's ability to anticipate another person's emotional reactions in specific situations. Reflection in business negotiations or business meetings is the understanding of interviewers as well as the perception of opponents. The phenomenon of reflection in business communication explains well the mirror "I" concept - that's "I", which, in my opinion I am perceived by other people. Meanwhile, the content of the actual or real "I" indicates what does the person see about himself in fact, without embellishment - capacity physical and moral qualities, behavioral goals and motives. Demonstrative "I" - is the "I" part, which we think is the best representing us. This demonstrative "I" is beautified with all kinds of ways and it means that person will present himself to others so as to create a favorable impression, align his behavior with interviewer desires, circumstances and environments requirements.
Already at the beginning of the business negotiation, business meeting with the interviewer it is very important to be able to take off the mask, to be open and sincere. In an open, honest communication it is impossible the trust worthy relationship. In order to better understand your business relationships characteristics with other human we have to take interest what is his reaction, what are your own deeds in specific situations, to evaluate the real consequences of your behavior, expressions. With this information - how we perceive, understand, evaluate - from different people we can see ourselves in several different mirrors and modify the behavior in further stages of the business relationship in the right direction, avoiding difficulties, confidence-building problems at the beginning of conversation (Lewicki 2006; Lennane, Weidner 2006).
What are characteristics which man emphasize and exaggerate, when he seeks to create a credible human image for surroundings? It appears that most we want to appear nice, friendly and sincere, understanding and polite, intelligent and talented, energetic, hardy, able to do everything on time as required. We also want to look honest, tolerant and even altruistic, temperate and modest, that we should be more reliable (Ross, LaCroix 1996; Sinaceur 2010).
Creating trust often gets indulging, insinuation, the interviewer praise direct or indirect approval of his opinion. If this behavior is successful, other people become enthusiastic with person, who is seeking favor, not because of the specific features and characteristics, but because of his behavior. Research shows that trust is created by the following:
1. Responsiveness to other people, taking into account their views, needs and interests;
2. Ambient pleasing behavior, though it would be contrary to your own beliefs or values;
3. Showing of respect and sympathy, but do not overdo praising as well as complimenting words;
4. The aid proposal, the provision of services;
5. Approval the opinion of the surrounding (or more);
6. The demonstration of such properties, which are assessed around and hiding those that can be evaluated negatively.
One can predict that in doing so, person must be very careful, because other people can see his behavior as a manipulation. To create and maintain confidence is necessary communication and willingness to cooperate between the relations of two (or more) participants. If one side will be inclined to trust only and the other indiscriminately will seek their goals alone, after one naive trust case will come ... distrust. The importance of trust or distrust intensifies when two people or groups are functionally dependent, and any process error can harm them both or whole group. For trust building in business negotiations and business talks are essential the following components:
• the ability to trust (which includes all the life experience of both sides of the negotiations, which formed the ability of its members and willingness to risk by relying on others);
• perception of your and the opponent's competence (your negotiating team), evaluation of skills to compete in the current circumstances, evaluation of the opponent's (the opponent's negotiating team) capacity to compete;
• perception of the intentions of negotiators, opponents (your understanding that opponents actions, words, missions and decisions are influenced by companies, he represents rather than the opponents motives).

I had a request from a member to reprint the article on mold makers I recently wrote for the FS.
The Mold / Mould Marketplace Today
There are many mold makers no longer in business such as Belding & Mull, Cramer, Eagan, Herters, Hensley & Gibbs, Peerless, Modern Bond, Yankee, Ohaus, Lachmiller, Ardito and just recently, NEI are just a few.
But today we still have a long list of makers who produce an astonishing array of bullet designs of well-made molds. Most commonly they are made of high quality iron alloys, aluminum & brass. Some makers offer only molds of one material, others of all three. One thing you can count on is that they will all stand behind their products. But before you buy, research the design & dimensions if available. None of them offer refunds if the bullet is not accurate, that is on you to choose wisely. However, defects and dimensions not to spec will almost always garner a quick repair or replacement. Probably the best tip I can give you about buying bullet molds is to call on the experience of your fellow CBA members. They are a wealth of knowledge available through the Fouling Shot, CBA forum, by email or phone. I have never talked to a member not willing to share his or her knowledge and experience with various molds.
However, the purpose of this article is to give you a general overview of the makers. It is not intended as review of their complete line of molds or quality. I apologize in advance for any maker that I have left of this list.

In addition to molds, many of them produce fine casting products such as sizing dies and other casting accessories.
As you can see, we have a lot of choices. I personally own at least one mold from all but two of these makers. Am I happy with all of them, yes. Some are better than others, however I think you can get good service from all of them. None of them are abuse resistant, but with proper care they will last a lifetime. All will be passed down from me to my son and/or grandsons and there is no reason they too will get a lifetime of use from them.
