The Chilean Citrus Committee has unveiled its new marketing campaign to promote consumption of Chilean citrus in the UK and Japan.
The UK campaign started with participation with a stand at the recent London Produce Show and Conference, held from 6-8 June.
"The promotions in the UK are aimed at strengthening the presence of Chilean citrus in the market, highlighting its characteristics and availability, as well as enabling visitors to taste our citrus," said Monserrat Valenzuela the committee's manager.
"The London Produce Show and Conference brings together people from across the supply chain, acting as a forum where you can meet suppliers, buyers, nutritionists, chefs, and other professionals linked with the fruit world."
Charif Christian Carvajal, Asoex's marketing director, added: "As part of its participation in the event, the Committee delivered a presentation where its general manager outlined the Chilean citrus industry.
"Taking part also enabled us to make contact with potential buyers. It's important to mention that as part of the show, Chile took part in a seminar about the Pacific Alliance where we highlighted Chilean fruit production and exports."
The UK campaign will feature articles in specialist trade publications for the fresh produce sector. Principally published online, these articles will also be distributed through social media channels. As well as this, Chile has invited a specialist trade journalist to visit the country to learn about the Chile's citrus sector and export offer.
In terms of the Japanese market, the Committee will be organising workshops for importers and the media to learn more about the health benefits, versatility of use for different culinary dishes and food safety of Chilean lemons.
These activities will be complimented by 'cookery shows', in which participants will learn how to prepare different dishes which, as well as tasting them, they can share with readers and customers.
Although the US remains the principal destination for Chilean lemons, Japan has become an interesting market for the product due to the high value that Japanese consumers place on Chilean fruit.
Last season Japan accounted for more than 80 per cent of lemons exported from Chile to Asia.
For this season the Committee is forecasting a 17 per cent increase in citrus exports. This will be led by mandarins, which will be 32 per cent up on the previous season, followed by oranges and clementines.
In terms of mandarins, the Committee anticipates that exports will reach 100,819 tonnes, up from 76,373 tonnes during the previous season. Orange exports are expected to amount to 84,449 tonnes, equivalent to a 12 per cent increase from the last export campaign's 75,478 tonnes.
In third place, clementines are forecast to record a 27 per cent increase to 51,924 tonnes, from 41,000 tonnes the season before. Finally, lemon exports are set to reach 78,104 tonnes, a 1 per cent increase from the 75,478 tonnes exported during the previous campaign.

Wayne Harley Brachman knows what it's like to pack two children off to school with filled lunchboxes, so his advice in "See Dad Cook" (Clarkson Potter, $16.95 paper) rings true. Mr. Brachman is an experienced chef, but his friendly book, which might be just right for a Father's Day gift, assumes little familiarity with the kitchen. It covers tools, shopping, shortcuts and, perhaps best of all, how kids can be enlisted to help out at mealtime. The recipes are basic: pasta primavera, for example, pot roast, even popcorn. The blueberry muffin recipe is excellent.
The esthetics of Japanese food, so evident on the plate, start with often hand-crafted kitchen implements. Cooks everywhere have discovered the santoku knife, but in "Cool Tools: Cooking Utensils from the Japanese Kitchen" (Kodansha International, $28), Kate Klippensteen discusses many more utensils, like slender chopsticks used in cooking, ceramic pots, special graters and graceful bamboo colanders. A list of sources is given.
"Off Duty: The World's Greatest Chefs Cook at Home" (William Morrow, 2006, $39.95) is a collection of menus and recipes that David Nicholls, an English chef, assembled from contributions by 47 well-known chefs and one food writer, some of them American, after his 19-year-old son, Daniel, was paralyzed in an accident. Proceeds from the beautifully photographed cookbook raise money for a spinal injury foundation that Mr. Nicholls started in his son's name.
Among the selections: Charlie Trotter's Yukon Gold potato soup with poached oysters, Wolfgang Puck's zesty lemon bars and Alain Ducasse's brioche French toast.

NEN-EN-IEC 62464-1 specifies measurement procedures for the determination of many essential image quality parameters for MR EQUIPMENT. Measurement procedures as addressed in this document are suitable for - quality assessment in the ACCEPTANCE TEST, and - quality assurance in the CONSTANCY TEST. Required levels of performance for ACCEPTANCE TESTS are not provided for all tests. This document does not address - image quality assessment of MR EQUIPMENT with a static magnetic field intensity greater than 8 Tesla, if not otherwise stated, - image quality affected by MR-compatibility issues, - special diagnostic procedures such as flow imaging, perfusion, diffusion, radiotherapy and image-guided therapy applications, and - TYPE TESTS. The scope of this document is also limited to measuring image quality characteristics in images acquired on TEST DEVICES, not in PATIENT images. The measurement procedures specified in this document are directed to - MANUFACTURERS, who can demonstrate compliance by performing ACCEPTANCE and CONSTANCY TESTS as described by this document, - test houses, who can confirm performance of MR EQUIPMENT using methods described in this document, - regulatory authorities, who can reference this document, and - RESPONSIBLE ORGANISATIONS who want to perform ACCEPTANCE and CONSTANCY TESTS using methods described in this document. The essential image quality parameters and measurement methodologies defined in this document are - SIGNAL TO NOISE RATIO, - UNIFORMITY, - SLICE THICKNESS in 2-D scanning, - 2-D GEOMETRIC DISTORTION, - SPATIAL RESOLUTION, and - GHOSTING ARTEFACTS. Each of these procedures can be performed standalone or in combination with any of the other procedures. This document describes the preferred measurement procedures. It also describes alternative normative methods in Annex A. The preferred test methods may be substituted with these alternative normative methods. If necessary, other methods not described in this document can be used, provided those other test methods are documented and validated against the methods described in the document: it means an analysis is done by comparison to the original method that demonstrates a similar, or better, level of sensitivity to the same parameter of interest and a similar, or better, level of robustness against unrelated parameters. All methods will produce quantitative results. The rationale to the preferred and alternate methods, and their pitfalls, are described in Annex B. This document also presents requirements for CONSTANCY TESTS suitable for MR EQUIPMENT quality assurance programs concerning essential image quality parameters. There are no preferred CONSTANCY TEST methods, to provide flexibility in using existing automated procedures where available, but suggested examples of test methods can be found in Annex A. This document places an emphasis on consistently repeatable, automated measuring tools that facilitate trend analysis and the frequent quick testing of a small set of important parameters that are sensitive to the overall operating characteristics of the MR EQUIPMENT.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is using the Total Airspace & Airport Modeller (TAAM) to support the planning and environmental analyses of the Re-Evaluation of the O'Hare Modernization Environmental Impact Statement. TAAM is a fast-time delay and travel time computer simulation model that is being used to calculate delays and travel times as well as to provide information to be used in the Air Quality and Noise Analyses.
The Air Traffic workgroup involved in the TAAM modeling was composed of both FAA Management and National Air Traffic Controllers Association (NATCA) representatives from O'Hare Tower (ORD ATCT), Chicago TRACON (C90), and Chicago Center (ZAU). Representatives from the FAA Great Lakes Region and Chicago Airports District were also involved in the modeling. The assumptions and review process is unprecedented in scope and duration for any single airport modeling project in the U.S. for a Re-Eval. Together this workgroup represents more than 190 cumulative years of experience with and the knowledge of real-world air traffic operational issues in the Chicago area. They provided the assumptions and operational perspective on the TAAM model's depictions of future operational procedures for O'Hare International Airport.
The process for the TAAM work for the Re-Eval follows the method used for the original EIS work completed in 2003-2004. The 2003-2004 method and the 2014-2015 work conducted by Ricondo & Associates, a City of Chicago contractor, was completed at the direction, oversight, review, and approval of the FAA.
As this data becomes available in draft final form, the FAA will post the various components of each analysis including the operating assumptions, and TAAM project files. However, please be advised that this TAAM data continues to be reviewed by the FAA and may change.
For each scenario, the following directories will be available:
- TAAM Project Files;
- TAAM Assumptions/Results Data Package; and
TAAM is a commercially available model developed and maintained by Jeppesen. It is used to develop representative "what-if" analyses of various airfield and airspace environments. The files listed under the section TAAM Project Files are used in running the model. However, due to licensing agreements, the TAAM model itself is not available on this website.

People infected with HIV or have AIDS need a quality of life
that does not undermine their health. There are people dying due to the stress on an already stressed and suppressed immune system.
There is added stress due to a lack of funds available to support nutritional diet and good health. Proper nutrition is necessary for
HIV infected individuals, as those who eat well feel better compared to those who consume a less than adequate diet. Malnutrition can
compromise their ability to fight off in-fection. We should be making good nutrition a high priority in AIDS treatment!
There are people living with HIV who are in constant need of medical attention due to the poor quality of food and water. Water must be clear of micro-organisms
and tap water is not fit to drink by people with a suppressed immune system, as they are susceptible to Cryptosporidiosis and Microsporidiosis. There
is a need and an added expense of purchasing bottled water for drinking and cooking. The lack of bottled water contributes to their disease. There is a
need for affordable housing, providing a comfortable and stress free environment in which to live.
My concern and disappointment is directed at the lack of consideration given to the present situation of poverty, poor nutrition, inadequate sanitation
and housing for people living with HIV. These issues are of the utmost importance to individuals who are infected with HIV.
A call for action is necessary. The present situation dictates that these are vital necessities for people living with HIV/AIDS
throughout the world! A simple exercise in these directions and implementation would have an enormous impact on the fight against AIDS!

Keeping up with our loving but furry friends can be a challenge at times, especially if they happen to be large friends. This new Dyson Cordless Vacuum—the V10 Animal—has 20% more suction power than the V8, plus has a whole-machine, completely sealed HEPA class filtration system.
Lightweight, maneuverable, with additional cleaning tools designed for animal lovers, cleaning your home has never been easier.
The Dyson V10 Animal comes with a powerful torque drive cleaning head that removes 25% more dust from carpeting. Equipped with a DC motor inside the brush bar, this cleaning head is more efficient, digging deeply into carpets to loosen and remove pet hair and fur, as well as dirt and debris.
Along with this new motor, is the new in-line configuration. The motor, bin, and cyclones are all aligned so air is drawn directly from the cleaner head into the cyclones in a straight line, increasing suction to 20% more than the Dyson V8.
Dyson's new digital motor is smaller, yet lighter and stronger than their V8 motor. Placing the impeller in the back of the motor, axial airflow draws in cooler air, reducing temperature and allowing the motor spin at up to 125,000rpm. This generates the suction of a big vacuum, while giving you the convenience of a cordless stick vac.
The 14 cyclones create 79,000g force that can throw dirt and debris into the dust bin, and because they are concentrically placed, airflow is more efficient. The cyclones narrow from top to bottom so as air flows through them it accelerates from 45 mph to 120 mph creating immense centrifugal force. This enables the vacuum to capture even microscopic particles—not to mention pet fur and dander.
With the new in-line configuration, Dyson added new features to completely seal the whole machine so nothing escapes into your home air.
With whole-machine filtration, the V10 Animal retains 99.97% of particulates as small as 0.3 microns—HEPA Class filtration—and you get cleaner, fur-free air.
A lithium-ion battery with an additional 7th cell is more energy-dense without adding weight to the vacuum. With 7 cells, this battery runs at a higher voltage, creating more power than ever. Thanks to internal LED system diagnostics and altitude sensors, it automatically optimizes power to the cleaner head for fade-free power. Up to one whole hour of it!
At times you need more than the standard cleaning tools when you have pets. Dyson knows this and includes two extra tools that help make keeping the fur and hair under control
Dyson didn't stop at a new motor, battery, and deep cleaner head. Take a look at these upgraded features that will make cleaning your entire home a breeze.
You'll love cleaning up after your pets almost as much as you love them, with the Dyson V10 Animal Cordless Stick Vacuum. More suction, more power, more pet-friendly tools in a light-weight machine. What's not to love?

Jennifer Lawrence gives an update on her movie with Amy Schumer
'We're meeting with directors,' the actress told 'Vogue'
Jennifer Lawrence is still one of the busiest actresses in Hollywood. The enigmatic trailer for her latest movie, Darren Aronofsky's mother!, premiered early Tuesday morning, and in a new Vogue cover story she talks about that film and also gives an update on another project she's working on: A movie with her friend Amy Schumer.
"We're meeting with directors," Lawrence told Vogue. She added that the two of them would play "dysfunctional twins" in the untitled project, and that the movie's plot is both "sad" and "funny."
"She's the funniest person I've ever met," Lawrence said of Schumer. "She's also an amazing dramatic actress, which I want to bring out."
Vogue also got comment from Schumer herself, who said that "Jen is funny like a comic" and that "She understands the rhythm of a joke and how to play both the straight man and the idiot. She has one of the darkest senses of humor I've ever encountered and it's delightful. My only problem with her is that she's fat."
Read the full story at Vogue.


text: This quote hangs in my office. I read it every day. For me it expresses the very definition and value of inspiration. I guess I could argue that nothing inspires me more than inspiration. Sometimes I gather so much inspiration – images, photos, tear sheets, books, notes – that it overwhelms me, making me feel disorganised, unfocused and like I'll never have enough time in my life to put it all to use. But I can't resist it – if I see something that moves me I want to remember it, archive it, file it away for when I need it. Recently Pinterest has helped me enormously to store digital images, and my inspiration board in my office is constantly evolving with the addition of new things – advertisements, invitations, fashion stories, tickets, place cards. I also have an album in iPhoto titled Inspiration – To Sort where I can put things I find to file later. Whenever I have a new project to work on, I consult my inspiration, take what I need, leave the rest, and it feels as if the conceptual part of my thinking has been expressed physically, sending me on my way to word hard and create something new.

We often think that "green" promotional products are those that are recyclable, biodegradable, made from post consumer or renewable materials, etc. However, if the products are not used or are effective in your customer's promotional campaign, then resources are still wasted as far as time, money and effort by the end customer which can then hurt your return sales. Furthermore, even if products are made from eco friendly materials, they may have been transported half way around the world, which counters the "green" idea…so it's also a good idea to check for local Suppliers or businesses that can produce the products, especially if they are low quantity orders.
Eco friendly products definitely have their place in the promotional product industry, however, the "greenest" promotional products are the ones that are actually used and not quickly tossed aside or in the trash. This is where you, the Distributor has a vital role, as you are the specialist that your customer relies on for an effective promotional campaign…even if it's just your customers business cards, since business cards often lead to more lucrative promotional product orders.
So when your customers ask for green promotional product ideas, make sure to take the all variables into consideration, and most importantly, not sacrifice efficiency for the "idea" of going green.

Pitso points to Shonga, Mulenga threat
Mamelodi Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane admits they will have their work cut out in trying to tame Orlando Pirates' Zambian duo of Justin Shonga and Augustine Mulenga.
Shonga and Mulenga are likely to start when table-toppers Pirates visit defending Absa Premiership champions Sundowns at Loftus Stadium on Saturday (15h30).
Mosimane has previously spoken about Shonga signing on the dotted line for Sundowns, but despite the coach's adamance that the player put pen to paper on a contract with the Brazilians, the 22-year-old forward ended up wearing the famous black and white of the Buccaneers.
Now Sundowns have to make sure they keep out the player who is on a high after breaking his scoring drought in Pirates' 2-1 victory over Polokwane City on Tuesday.
"Shonga was here, I saw him signing. I was sitting on the table when he was signing. But anyway, their combination is good and they shoot well. They have the proper technique to score and they have power. They are typical Zambian players," the former Bafana Bafana coach said.
"The way they play is typical Zambia style – that's how they play. That's how Zesco play; full of energy, movement."
Mosimane's centre-backs, who are not the fastest, will have to make sure they position themselves well to keep out the Zambian pair. Motjeka Madisha and Mosa Lebusa are likely to start for Sundowns in central defence.
Their mission is to ensure the strikers do not get a lot of time and space in the box to do as they please.
"Do you remember Alje Schut and Thabo Nthethe? We've never had the quickest centre-backs, but if you really look we don't concede [much]. In the five years I have been here, probably we have conceded less goals than anybody else and I have had those kind of centre-backs," Mosimane said.
"Sometimes it's the intelligence, positioning. People like [Ricardo] Nascimento is not fast, but he knows how to position himself."

Hangzhou Sports Park | NBBJ & CCDI
"The issue is not about how to sustain a large stadium commercially between games, but is about how a massive stadium can lead a 2 million-square-meter mixed use commercial program in a green park setting, form a future urban center, and redefine a new lifestyle. Our design provides what is exactly needed to support that agenda." Hu Xiaoming, design director of CCDI's Sports Division.
Courtesy of NBBJ & CCDI
The Hangzhou Sports Park is a design collaboration between NBBJ and CCDI for Hangzhou's new urban environment and is situated on the Qian Tang riverfront opposite the new Central Business District. Balancing the long-term commercial viability of the sports development, the park creates picturesque and sustainable public spaces that redefine sustainable design excellence in sports facilities while also retaining the importance of circulation.
Courtesy of NBBJ & CCDI
A weaving pedestrian experience is created through the flowing forms of the landscape and pathways that echo the geometries of the nearby river delta. The site is organized to clearly define circulation and areas of concentrated activities, tying together the sports and commercial programs. The paths also connect the two planned major transportation hubs on the east and west ends of the site, allowing not only easy movement in and around the park but in and out of it as well.
Courtesy of NBBJ & CCDI
The park is composed of three layers of activity. The above-grade areas are defined by a platform that indicates the higher concentrated areas of activity deemed the 'sports boulevard' that consists of the main stadium and tennis tournament facilities. The ground level is designated for public recreation activities such as alternative and extreme sports and was designed using a vast array of pathways, gardens, and plazas to accommodate the public's needs. Finally sunken spaces and courtyards lead to an extensive below-grade retail facility containing boutique stores, restaurants, and a multiplex cinema.
Courtesy of NBBJ & CCDI
The most dominant feature of the park, a 80,000-seat Main Stadium, broke ground in December of 2009 and is slated for completion in 2013 as an premier international sports venue. According to the designers, the stadium's exterior shell geometry draws from the serene flora iconography found on the banks of Hangzhou's West Lake in order to create a powerful and unique image along the fast growing Qian Tang riverfront. On the north end of the stadium, the seating bowl opens to reveal a view to the Yangtze riverfront, providing a connection between the stadium and the new Central Business District to exist. The circulation experience was carried through the stadium by means of the bowl program and structure that coordinated with the exterior shell to create a unique concourse.

Brexit uncertainty continues to be the key determinant of sterling's movement in the coming quarters. Market consensus signals that GBPUSD would rally as much as 4% in 6 months and about 6% in 2019. The forecasts are based on the assumption of a smooth Brexit. We are, however, skeptical over such optimism. We expect that the UK Parliament would eventually ratify the Withdrawal Agreement, avoiding a no-deal Brexit. Yet, this is just the beginning of the Brexit process. As the UK officially leaves EU on the deadline of March 29 and enters the 21-month transition period, negotiations of future trade relations with the EU would be again create uncertainty in the well being of UK's economy and BOE monetary policy. Volatility in GBP should persist in 2019.
Brexit Uncertainty Remains after March 29
The UK Parliament is expected to vote on the Withdrawal Agreement on January 15, after PM Theresa May called off a vote last month amidst doomed defeat. While refusing a second referendum and extending the Brexit process, May vowed that she would seek further "assurances" from the EU on issues such "measures specific to Northern Ireland" and "a greater role for parliament as we take these negotiations forward into the next stage for our future relationship". We expect some tactical changes in the agreement might lead to eventual approval by the MPs. Despite the threats from hardliner Brexiteers, they are probably unwilling to bear the sin of contributing to no-deal Brexit.
Yet, approval of the Withdrawal Agreement does not mean the dust is settled. Indeed, this marks the beginning of a more critical stage. As UK enters the 21-month transition period, negotiations on future trade relations with the EU starts. The negotiations involve discussion on UK-EU trade relations from 2021 onwards. For the UK, tt is a matter of trade-off between sovereignty and free- trade privileges. Although PM May had attempted to entangle trade issues with the divorce bills and Irish border, the EU stood firm and insisted on separating trade issues from the withdrawal deal. We expect EU would remain assertive in trade negotiations. This would not bode well for the UK. After all, leaving the single market, which has taken up 40% of UK exports and contributed about 45% of UK's imports, is prone to have tremendous impacts on UK's economy.
Economic Outlook
The latest Markit report shows that the country's manufacturing PMI rose to a 6-month high of 54.2 in December. Note, however, that the strong reading was driven by rises in new business and stocks of purchases. Rather than showing confidence in the Brexit outlook, these signaled producers and customers, both at home and overseas, are preparing for the hard time in case of Brexit disruption. Services PMI climbed +0.8 point higher to 51.2 in December. This was compared with a 28-month low made a month ago. indeed, the final two months of 2018 saw the weakest back-to-back expansions of business activity since late-2012. As noted in the accompanying statement, the companies surveyed indicated their anxiety over Brexit and need for "clarity on Brexit" so as to "prevent the economy sliding into contraction".
UK's economy has been struggling over the past year. Although growth has been picked up from the exceptionally weak first quarter, the recovery is mild. Monthly data suggest that has been flat in August and September, before showing a +0.1% expansion in October. From 3-month basis, GDP grew +0.4% in the three months to October, easing from +0.6% in the three months to September. According to the government, "GDP growth slowed going into the autumn after a strong summer, with a softening in services sector growth mainly due to a fall in car sales". "This was offset by a strong showing from IT and accountancy". For the first 10 months of the year, GDP has gained +1% from the end of the prior year.
Inflation has remained above BOE's +2% target. However, it has been falling from the +3.1% peak in November 2017. The central bank should feel less urgent to raise interest rate to curb inflation.
BOE Monetary Policy
The central bank's monetary policy is also highlt dependent on Brexit. As such, forecast BOE's rate hikes is as challenging as forecasting the outlook of sterling. Prolonged Brexit uncertainty might delay rate hike. BOE increased the policy rate twice (November 2017 and August 2018) after the 2007/08 global financial crisis. Both hikes were triggered by soaring inflation and adopted reluctantly by the central bank. If inflation steadies or continues its downtrend this year, BOE would prefer to take a wait-and- see mode, trying to leaving the policy rate as low levels so that it would not interrupt the economic recovery. The consensus (Reuters poll) forecasts that there would one rate hike by BOE this year, taking the bank rate from the current 0.75% to 1%.

text: a wounded mind… by Mary Jo Heyen | Oct 9, 2017 | Current, Feelings, Front Page Slider, Natural Dreamwork, relationship, soul | 0 comments Besides journals I've kept over the years, I also have a precious collection of scraps of paper, all shapes, colors and sizes…where I've written a thought, a quote, a question, an insight. In a quiet moment I'll take them out and look through them, as I would an old photo album…savoring each one…often remembering what inspired me to write it down. A couple of weeks ago I was sitting with my little leaf pile of papers and came across an insight I had from before I began working with my dreams… A wounded mind thinks in a wounded way. At the time I sensed the truth in my statement but wasn't sure how…or even if… this wounded mind of mine could be healed in a true way… This time in the reading so many years later, so deeply in relationship with my dreams it was different. For myself I have found the how of healing…and I have to look no further than my dreams…and what it is they teach me, what it is they want me to remember about who I truly am…and how they support my healing…and my feeling…all the way through…and how much I feel part of the Eternal. What was wounded in us was not our heart. What was wounded in us was not our soul… A quality of soul is its capacity to feel it all… love, pain, joy, sorrow, hurt, grief…the whole palette of feelings. And these feelings…all of them…even the most painful…are not wounds. They are the feeling waters that nourish our soul…liquid grace. They keep us connected to and in conversation with our soul lineage…to Spirit. What was wounded in us was our mind… What was wounded in us was how we think… about ourselves, about the world, and our place in it. "I don't belong…" "There is love for others but not for me…" "I'm not enough…" "It's my fault…" "If I meet everyone else's needs they'll love me…" We never lost the connection to our true self…our soul…to Spirit… but a wounded mind thinks in a wounded way…and we forget… and we believe something is inherently wrong with us…that it is our fault. Perhaps all it takes to be wounded is this human experience. And when we experience hurt, which includes the many forms of physical and emotional abuse, especially when young and inarticulate, it changes us. It changes the way our minds work…and we think and make sense of the world in a wounded way. It changes the way we think…about ourselves…about what it means to love…to be loved. Our dreams show us what we often call the dream ego. Perhaps a more accurate naming would be that the dreams show us how we are in the world from our wounded mind…doing things…saying things…either out loud or the frantic reasonings of our mind… Our dreams want to help us with this tender and heartbreaking misunderstanding…and that what was wounded can be healed…that this wounded way of thinking can be healed…and that we can recover this connection to our true self. And in our willingness to explore our dreams…to drop into the feelings a dream image carries…to embody it…let it move through us…we take the medicine the dream offers…and the wounded mind begins to heal…begins to remember who we truly are.

TUCSON, AZ (KOLD News 13) - We're launching a new segment to you keep you safe when you grab a bite to eat.
Each month, the Pima County Health Department inspects hundreds of restaurants and fast food places.
KOLD News 13′s Vicki Karr has our first Restaurant Report Card.
This past week - 12 restaurants were given a fail rating. Some of these are just changes of ownership or adding new equipment
Others were operating without a permit
But one caught our attention. This restaurant was put on probation the week before and the health department said it failed to hit the mark during re-inspection
Inspectors first visited Golden Phoenix Restaurant near 22nd and Country Club on Jan. 28.
Here are the major violations they found, according to the report:
- Not storing food at appropriate temperatures
- Unclean equipment
- Not separating food properly to avoid cross contamination
- The inspector said she saw rodent droppings on the floor and under shelving
The health department gave the owner 10 days to make changes and went back for re-inspection on on Feb. 7.
Here's what the health department says was corrected:
- Owner installed new, clean equipment
- Food was separated properly
- Rodent droppings cleaned up
But according to the report, some of the cold food was still not being stored at the proper temperature.
FDA rules require it be stored at 41 degrees or below. With that not being fixed, the food inspector gave this place a failing grade.
The owner has 10 additional days to make changes before the inspectors drop back in.
Golden Phoenix Restaurant has had a pretty good inspection track record since 2000. But, it has been placed on probation before.
KOLD News 13 reached out to Golden Phoenix Restaurant for comment and we have not heard back as of 4 p.m Friday, Feb. 15.

Appeal No. 120,875: In the Matter of Kevin P. Shepherd
Archived oral argument video
Shepherd, of Topeka, was suspended from the practice of law for two years for violating the Kansas Rules of Professional Conduct on competence; diligence; communication; safekeeping property; preserving client funds; withdrawing from representation; making a false statement in connection with a disciplinary matter; engaging in conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit, or misrepresentation; and engaging in conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice
Appeal No. 120,924: In the Matter of Joshua T. Mathews
Archived oral argument video
The Supreme Court today ordered Mathews, of Leawood, who was admitted to practice law in Kansas in April 2008, be censured and that the censure be published in the Kansas Reports. The court agreed with a recommendation from a panel of the Kansas Board of Discipline of Attorneys and the Disciplinary Administrator's Office that Mathews should be disciplined for misconduct in reporting his continuing legal education credits information to the Kansas Continuing Legal Education Commission in 2017. The court found he engaged in misconduct including dishonesty by falsely denying to the commission he had viewed online CLE courses while attending an in-person CLE program, and inaccurately stating on an affidavit that he completed one hour of ethics credit.

Winona Ryder's Motivations For Making Girl, Interrupted
Catch Girl, Interrupted on Sunday, May 13 @ 5:30P | 4:30C, and stay tuned for the enhanced version at 8P | 7C!
When Winona Ryder was 20, she checked herself into a psychiatric ward for a few days. The insomnia and anxiety attacks she had been suffering on and off for years had become paralyzing. At the tail end of a long, difficult parting with Johnny Depp, her first serious boyfriend, she said she "hit bottom." A week after entering the hospital, she signed herself out, feeling she had not been helped.
Ryder recalled, "The worst part of it was not being able to describe the overwhelming horror of the anxiety attacks – even to my own family, to the people closest to me… My breathing would get labored, everything would start speeding up, and I'd get very scared. The closest I ever came to describing it was that feeling when you almost get in a car wreck and you swerve, and for a second there are needles in your head and needles in your body. It's that moment, but stretched out."
Winona talks more about her emotional crash after the jump.
Ryder said that when she checked herself into the hospital, "I was
so tired, I just wanted to sleep. They didn't help me at all… What I
learned was that, no matter how rich you are and how much you pay some
hospital or doctor, they can't fix you. They can't give you a pill or a
secret answer to anything that's going to make you all better."
"Successful actors aren't really allowed to complain, which I
understand," confessed Ryder. "And I understand that when actors
complain, it sounds a little nauseating. We're very lucky. We're
sickeningly well-paid and we have these very charmed lives. But along
with that, there is a lot of kind of ugly stuff that goes with it that
the public doesn't see… There's a lot of soul-selling stuff that goes
with it. And that's the kind of stuff that breaks us down."
Ryder came to the conclusion that "you have to figure it out for
yourself. Suddenly everything became very real, and I realized it was
okay to not have the answers. I just had to get through it on my own.
And that life was confusing, the world was a weird place full of a lot
of things that I'll never understand, but that I'm not supposed to
understand… Life is just weird, and messy. And I just have to get
through it, and do my best. Either choose to move on, or stay
miserable. And I chose to move on."
When Winona Ryder was 21, she was given Susanna Kaysen's memoir
Girl, Interrupted in galley form by her father Michael Horowitz, a
rare-book dealer. Ryder immediately identified with the author's
experience. "I was just coming out of my very serious depression, and I
didn't know what to label it, just as Susanna doesn't know what to
label hers," Ryder revealed.
"I was blown away by it, but also saddened a bit that it hadn't been
published when I was in my late teens," said Ryder. "I could have used
Susanna's insights back then to get through my own struggles at 17 and
18 years old. To me the book is a timeless story about timeless
characters and timeless feelings. It is an incredibly honest,
courageous, sensitive and, most amazingly, wickedly funny account of
what was a terribly painful time in her life."
Winona Ryder decided to make Girl, Interrupted into a movie because
she believed the author's insights could really help certain young
people. "I hope the teenagers who feel alone out there will see this
movie and say, 'Thank God.' Because movies like this aren't really
offered, and I would like to offer it. If I had seen this movie at 19,
I would have taken a lot of comfort in it… Life is just weird. Life is
a mess. This world is a mess, and anyone who understands this world I
would worry about… We're normal to feel crazy, in a way."

Improvement in art making. What an idea. It really comes down to being able to express what you intended to express – in my case visually. So, I'm going to work on a few aspects and post the trials (and successes and fails).
Contrast. That's one of those cool words that artists use to explain their works and sometimes their process. Defined in Google: "the state of being strikingly different from something else in juxtaposition or close association."the day began cold and blustery, in contrast to almost two weeks of uninterrupted sunshine""
well, I don't know about bluster or uninterrupted sunshine in regard to these recent examples. But if you've been watching my past posts, these are quite strikingly different. I didn't think I'd like concentrating on shapes. Then, these came out of the brushes! I'm not sure what to make of them, but I like them.
They are a series. I am a believer in working in series. As others have said and taught, you really do push yourself and get different, more risky results. I like that. Every brushstroke isn't quite so precious.
I like how the big shapes contrast with the smaller ones. And the dark shapes with the light shapes. But now, stop. There are so many different ways to use contrast. This uses one, maybe two, or a few more.
Will I be able to do this again? I don't really know. But more important to me, will I be able to replicate the energy, the interest? Was I too "in the zone" to remember what I was thinking, or not thinking? All I know is – it was in there (me and the brushes), so it's still in there. And that means I can find it again – in some way.
Ok, I can pause on this. Think, reflect, breathe.
In gratitude.

Kitchen and bathroom design is a serious business, as it is important to make smart choices that will provide you with the best return on your investment. Custom kitchen designs will offer the most choice when it comes to cabinetry, making it a top choice for many homeowners. However, each type of cabinet for a kitchen remodel in Fall River will be different, depending on the amount of financial investment you make. Custom cabinets for Fall River kitchens and bathrooms will be at the high end of the price scale but offer many benefits that will increase the value of your home.
Kitchen Cabinets 101: Learning the Basics
It is helpful to have a basic understanding of the different types of kitchen cabinets and cupboards that can be used in your Fall River kitchen remodel or new home construction project. Stock, semi-custom, and custom and the three most common types of cabinetry used in North America today. The type that you ultimately choose will be based on the design, style, and color of the materials, the method required for installation, and your budget.
- STOCK CABINETS – These are what you will typically see when you visit a local home improvement store. While they might look nice, there are definite limitations to these ready-made cabinets that are pre-manufactured at the factory. They are mass-produced based upon the popular designs and colors that are most in demand by American homeowners. Sold in modular units, there is no customization available other than being able to pick from a set selection of colors and possibly to add embellishments with custom doorknobs and drawer pulls. The biggest advantage is the cost, as these are by far the most affordable of all types of cabinetry. The downfall can be the materials used to make them and restrictions on choice for color, the type of wood, shapes, sizes, and styles. Standard width ranges between nine and 48 inches, increasing by three-inch increments.
- SEMI-CUSTOM CABINETS – The middle ground between stock and custom, many semi-custom cabinets are simply stock cabinets that have extra detailing options that are popular with consumers. In addition, the ability to choose cabinetry for Fall River kitchens and bathrooms to suit specific dimensions is also available. The basic cabinetry range remains, but cabinet depth can be increased or decreased, as needed. Cabinet drawers and door fronts can be resized as well. This option allows homeowners to have the sizes and specifications they need with Massachusetts kitchen cabinets without having to pay for custom grade materials. Instead of being limited to three-inch increments, semi-custom cabinets can be increased in increments of just one-inch.
- CUSTOM CABINETS – Just as they sound, with custom kitchen designs, everything is built according to your specifications. Perfect for brand new construction and a kitchen remodel in Fall River, custom cabinets are either built on-site by a skilled carpenter or are built off-site after measurements are taken. Some are even manufactured on a built-to-order basis to meet the needs of clients. If you have odd-sized Fall River kitchens and bathrooms that require new cabinets, custom is typically the best route to go. If you want to upgrade your kitchen, but don't want to change the existing layout, a custom solution might be the right choice. Work with a reputable cabinet installer like Paul's Quality Kitchens to get professional insight that will help you to make the right decision for your new kitchen and bathroom design.
How to Hire a Professional Installer
If you are planning on installing new cabinetry for your Fall River kitchens and bathrooms, make sure to work with a professional. Even a small scale remodel or installation can be a considerable investment. The goal is to get the most out of any project that you do to maximize the value that you receive from doing the work. Whether your goal is to make improvements to sell your home in the future or if you are adding a custom kitchen and bathroom design for a brand new construction project, it pays to work with a pro. Contact Paul's Quality Kitchens in Fall River to set up a FREE consultation. We will come to your home, listen to your ideas, take measurements, and provide you with options for you to consider for your brand new Massachusetts kitchen cabinets or bathroom vanities. Call today at 508-324-9464 and speak with one of our designers about your needs for custom kitchen designs and bathroom installations.

Brussels tests out incentive for recycling empty cans
You can now make money from handing back empty drink cans in Brussels, in a new experiment at select locations.
A project launched on Monday has equipped three public places with machines that give five-cent coupons for each discarded can.
The project, based on an initiative from ministers Céline Fremault and Fadila Laanan, is meant to reduce cans being littered in the environment. Each can placed in the machine will produce a five-cent coupon which can be presented at participating businesses. The machines can hold up to 4,500 cans.
The three machines will be on the ULB Solbosch campus in front of Avenue Paul Héger in Ixelles, the Alma site of UCL and at Place de la Monnaie in downtown Brussels.
The system will be tried for at least six months, while impact tests are being run.
The businesses that accept the coupons will be posted on www.primeretour.brussels.

Medical Revenue Recovery
At HCPP we undertake the recovery of old accounts receivable (A/R). If your practice has accumulated, unresolved A/R, perhaps due to the lack of proper follow-up either from in-house billing or from another medical billing company, you stand to lose a substantial amount of money. One of the major problems faced by providers, is that a large portion of rejected/denied claims go unattended and are never reprocessed. HCPP's revenue recovery system will uncover and resolve the problems which led to rejection/denials, consequently shortening the A/R revenue cycle. The process establishes a trend between individual payor codes and common rejection/denial reason codes, which reveals billing and coding weaknesses, thus reducing future rejection/denials.
For claims that are denied and need to be appealed, appeal letters are prepared and sent along with supporting documents for processing.
Calls are made to patients to obtain missing demographics, insurance information, and to discuss outstanding balances. Each patient account is tracked and followed up by our experienced staff until the payment is received or resolved.
