text:
PUBLIC BIDDING — Just because a publically bid requirements contract has its estimated requirement substantially reduced after the contract had been awarded does not mean that a substantial post-award change to the Request for Proposal has been made and therefore the contract does not need to be rebid because it still controls the rights and obligations of the parties.
A county awarded a five year contract to provide medical and mental health services to inmates. Almost five years later, in anticipation of the expiration of the contract, the county issued a request for proposal (RFP) for a new five year contract. The RFP required the successful bidder to provide a minimum of 1,653 hours of staffing for a certain number of designated positions, locations, and shifts per week. It did not require the successful vendor to submit a breakdown of the hourly rates for staff until after the contract was awarded. An evaluation committee reviewed five proposals and recommended the contract be awarded to the existing vendor.
While the recommendation was under consideration, the county asked an expert to review the staffing requirements at the inmate centers. Before receiving the report, the County Board of Chosen Freeholders awarded the contract to the existing vendor. Thereafter, the vendor submitted its hourly rates for the required staff positions. Then, the county expert recommended a substantial reduction of the total number of staffing hours required under the contract. The county and the vendor agreed to change the contract's staffing requirements, and the county adopted a resolution reflecting the revised, lower contract price which was published.
A competitor bidder filed suit to enjoin the contract award and require the county to re-bid the contract pursuant to the Local Public Contracts Law (LPCL). The lower court held the competitor had standing to seek relief, and that the board's final resolution was invalid because it represented a material and substantial post-award change to the RFP in violation of the LPCL. However, the court rejected the demand that the county be ordered to re-bid the contract.
On appeal, the Appellate Division affirmed the lower court's rulings. The Court was satisfied that the competing bidder had sufficient interest in the amendment of the contract to give it the standing to challenge the board's final resolution and seek a re-bid of the contract. The Court, however, found that the bidder did not challenge the initial contract award or seek to compel the county to accept its bid.
Secondly, the Court did not find the lower court in error when it invalidated the board's final resolution. The Court said that while a local contracting unit may waive minor or inconsequential discrepancies and technical omissions in a bid proposal, material conditions contained in bidding specifications may not be waived. It found these principles applied to a post-award change to a contract that materially altered the basis upon which the contract was bid and awarded. The Court found the record supported the lower court's finding that the amendment would result in a thirty-six percent reduction in the staffing requirement and a significant difference in price. The Court opined that these substantiated changes might have influenced whether a potential bidder submitted or refrained from submitting a proposal in response to the original RFP.
The Court also held the county and winning bidder did not intend to abandon the original contract, as awarded, despite their agreement to substantially reduce the staffing levels under the agreement. The competitive bidder had argued that the original contract could not be revived and the only appropriate remedy was for the court to order the county to re-bid the contract. In this regard, the Court agreed with the lower court's finding that the original contract still controlled the rights and obligations of the parties and it was for the county to determine whether to terminate the agreement without cause on thirty days written notice, as permitted under the contract, and re-bid the contract.

The fly rod is what?
[dropcap]Y[/dropcap]our uncle Vinny gave you a brand new, top-of-the-line, fly rod and you're complaining? You say it's too fast, too slow, too heavy, too light, and can't throw bushy flies.
You don't know what you're talking about. Here, put this fly line on, and you can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares because for about $137 you can straighten it all out.
A $137 is a lot of money! What do I get?
You get a new fly line, new running line, new tips – just add a leader, and a wallet to keep them in. With these new tools, you are now ready to take certain steps.
You can now cast using a water haul and cast further than expected and more accurately. Yes, just like the spey boys and girls do. You do not have to 'ever' double haul again (it's a single, non-stop cast). You can roll cast distances not possible before, produce accurate casts as a matter of choice, and cast all day without calling for a reliever in the 'noon' inning.
You will fear no river bank, bush, canyon wall or forest stealing your fly – frustration will never be summoned.
With a made to order leader system and looped connections, you'll be able to quickly changeout from floating to mid-water or to fast sinking and start drifting along the bottom. Too, add different flies (if need be). All very quickly – not the old changeout way.
Who promises better casting results for the tired, poor, huddled anglers?
The fly line is the invention (extreme modification) and vision of a West Coaster with decades of angling experience and the short suit of aged knees, which we're told was the "stimulator" for his coming up with a better way. He was willing to try what was never tried before.
The Wizard is Ed Ward. A reliable source told us (paraphrasing) that Ward wanted to extend his angling enjoyment by nullifying orthopedic issues – make casting easier (R.M. Meiser).
What happened?
He made improvements to the "common" shooting head fly line – achieved his goal with a new, heretical version and also came up with one helluva shooting line as supporting cast.
However, it was the added benefits that baffled everyone
Beginner fly casters were no longer beginners, journeymen and women got to be pros, and pros got to invent the yet to be invented.
Ward made fly casting easier and better with "egalite" improvement across the broad spectrum of angler talents.
Start thinking in grain weights for your fly lines, not 2-weight, 9-weight . . .
Okay, okay but folks have been adding short mono-core lines (shooting heads) for many years, enabling them to reach previously unreachable distances, and getting deep – the whole point of using lead lines. But that was not an easier softer way. It was fraught with issues and a bear to manage.
What about there being umpteen versions of shooting heads already out there?
Other fly lines can, of course, achieve the same performance as the Commando Head and Lazur setup, but not as easy nor with as many options. The two-hand cast or single hand "without" having to double haul is an enormous OPST benefit. The OPST Skagit is not a "perfect" performer in every possible situation, but for one rod all day, it's a mountain of improvement for any angler.
Coming attraction
The remaining issue for Ward's "Commando Head" fly line is casting upstream and not frightening the trouts, but some modifications allow for reasonable approaches. We're sure Ward/OPST will figure something out. If they can, then there might not be any other fly line needed!
What about saltwater?
For those with a briny preference, the Commando Head and Lazur Running Line are even more worthy and productive.
More than in riverine applications, the distance of a cast, dealing with the wind (it blows 15 to 20 almost all winter in the Keys and the Bahamas), and big flies are better remedied with an OPST setup.
Flies, bigger than the usual for freshwater, are predominant when fishing the salt. Think kings, sharks, sails, snook, reds, blues, stripers, and more. The Commando and Lazur are perfect fits.
What about Spookus easyus, Aintno flipperus, Buttkickus fishus, Leapus maximus?
Bonefish (Spookus) using a floating tip and super long leader might do the trick. Dolphin, perfect. Tarpon, yes. Sailfish, you bet.
Although Ward has critics, I'm not one of them. If the Commando/Lazur makes fly casting easier for any level of casting classification, presentations better, and has the reserve of casting 100-feet – what's to criticize?
Watch this short video – it might rid you of stinking thinking. Disregard his fishing a small stream with lightweight rods – think any weight

Thousands rally in Cape Town against rising crime, high unemployment
CAPE TOWN- Thousands went to the streets here in the South African capital on Tuesday morning to voice their anger over rising crime and high unemployment.
Protests took place in several communities hit hard by crimes and unemployment.
The mass rally was largely peaceful, except at one location where protesters scuffled with police and prompted a police crackdown. Police officers fired teargas.
Witnesses said that rubber bullets were also used, causing injuries to several protesters. The city's Mayoral Committee Member for Safety JP Smith confirmed police use of teargas and rubber bullets at one location.
The city said the various gatherings in the city were illegal as organizers did not submit an application beforehand as required by the law.
The protests were organized by the Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU), which represents millions of workers and is also a coalition partner with the ruling African National Congress (ANC).
The planned "shutdown" of Cape Town by protesters had a limited impact and police had the whole situation under control, said Smith.
The city has deployed a large contingent of law enforcement officers to prevent the situation from running out of control, the city's traffic service spokesperson Maxine Bezuidenhout said.
Unemployment hovers above the 27 percent mark in South Africa. The country is also among the countries with the highest murder rate in the world, with 57 murders reported every day, according to statistics released by Police Minister BhekiCele earlier this month.
Releasing his annual report on crime statistics in Parliament on Sept. 11, Cele said 20,336 people were murdered in South Africa in the period from April 1, 2017 to April 31, 2018, up 6.9 percent from the 19,016 murders for the previous period.
Among other crimes, robbery of cash-in-transit vans also saw a sharp increase in the period surveyed, up by 86 counts, from 152 to 238, with most robberies happening on the roads and in business areas, and 40 in shops and malls.
In most instances, security guards' weapons were taken from them. Rape has increased by 0.5 percent, or by seven more people per day, meaning that 109 people are raped every day in South Africa.
Residential burglaries have decreased by 7.5 percent, with some 625 homes burgled every day in South Africa, the minister said.

People who are obese or have more than 10 pounds, they lose weight quickly. A healthy diet with a good exercise program is your best bet. However, some over-the-counter (OTC) products also offer many quick promises. For example, the weight loss patch claims to promote quick and easy weight loss. But does the weight loss patch really work, and is it safe to use? Let's find out.
About weight loss patches
You can find many types of online weight loss Calculator like TDEE. Manufacturers of these patches claim that they increase the weight by increasing metabolism or rapidly absorbing carbohydrates of the body. They claim that patches are not due to side effects.
These patches are applied once every day on the skin. It is usually herbal ingredients that enter the body through the skin and are released more than 24 hours. Some examples of these components are:
In most cases, there is no indication that a weight loss patch is effective. This is because these products are marketed as dietary supplements in the United States. And the nutritional elements are not required to meet similar standards of efficacy as OTC and medicines. As a result, the FDA Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has tested the test pills which prove they actually work.
There is very little, if any, evidence or weight loss patch works. Most effectiveness studies done by manufacturing manufacturers are low and do not meet general standards for scientific study.
In some cases, the government needs to take action. In 2004 the Federal Trade Commission claimed the maker of slamming patches for a false representation. The manufacturer said that scientific research has shown that its weight loss patch was approved by the FDA due to a lot of weight loss and the main component of the product (Fuqas vasiculosus or sea calf). None of these claims are true. As a result of the suit, the manufacturer agrees to stop this claim.
Side effects
Because the FDA does not control dietary supplements such as other medicines, the side effects of weight loss patch are not fully understood. Apart from that, different pens have different components, so the side effects can change. The best way to find out how much weight is reduced is to talk to a doctor. They can help you decide whether they are a safe option for you.
Because they regulate individually compared to OTC or medicines, complementary safety standards are not required to be met. Many dietary supplements, including weight loss patch, have not been tested for safety.
Unknown element
Due to this lack of testing, many do not know about weight loss patches (included). In fact, the FDA has decided that the content on the label is not always included in the production. Some dietary supplements for weight loss include prescription drugs. It can be very risky. If you choose to use any of these contaminated products, it can interact with other drugs you take and cause serious harm.
Uncertain content
Weight-loss patch can not even confirm known ingredients. Many weight loss patches claim natural ingredients from plants. Despite the side effects they have no guarantee that they will be safe. Research has shown that many of these herbal ingredients can lead to similar risk to prescription drugs.
For example, a gur is a berry from South America that says you can help with weight loss. Whether it is true or not, it increases the heart rate of the guru and makes an unusual heart rhythm. Another natural product, Efedra (M Huang), was once found in weight loss products. However, in 2004, the FDA was restricted by the FDA because it had serious risks such as heart attack and stroke. Some people who take an ephedra die from these effects

Many of us grew up watching Kanga and Roo hop around while Winnie the Pooh lumbered along as best he could. But new research suggests that kangaroos actually move more like Tigger bouncing on his tail.
Researchers from Simon Fraser University in British Columbia have discovered that kangaroos use their tails as a fifth leg. In fact, when on all fours (or maybe it should be fives), the tail does the heavy lifting. The tail not only helps to balance and support the kangaroo, but "it's also a very strong motor," says Max Donelan, an associate professor at Simon Fraser University.
"It provides most of the propulsive forces that push it forward. Basically, it's a tail in name only. The function it plays for them during slow walking is indistinguishable from a leg."
The discovery was made by an ingeniously simple method: build a box with a base of force plates that is low enough that it forces kangaroos into their natural walking position. Then synchronize the data from the force plates, which measure how much pressure is being exerted, with the video to see which limb, or in this case tail, is working at a given time.
Donelan's research typically focuses on human leg locomotion—how people move and how much energy is consumed while moving. Research models show that for humans, walking or running efficiency is tied to when we push off with our back leg. "If they pushed off with the correct timing, they could reduce the energetic cost of walking by about four-fold," Donelan says. "It turns out that healthy humans do that nearly perfectly."
But people that have suffered trauma, such as a stroke, amputation or surgery, don't. Donelan says this leads to wasted energy that can limit how far or fast they can walk, and may impact what kind of career they can have.
So why kangaroos?
Donelan says the same type of model that showed how efficient humans can be when walking suggested that kangaroos wouldn't be able to time their movements well when moving slowly, which would result in a lot of wasted energy. But it turns out their tail touches the ground at the right time to ensure maximum efficiency.
"So the question is, can they actually use their tail, which evolved to hang from trees, to actually be a functional leg?" Donelan asks. The answer is yes.
He says that that though there isn't a direct human application for the research, it's important to do this type of research because it can lead to surprising outcomes. "It's forced me to think about what a leg really is."

About the product
What Is It:
Who says your mist can't be as elegant as your serum? Sulwhasoo brings the oft forgotten mist into prominence with this extraordinary formulation. The First Care Activating Serum Mist is an oil-water serum mist featuring five precious ingredients that make up Sulwhasoo's JAUM Balancing Complex™, a complex that helps restore the balance and radiance of skin. This balance is achieved by improving the skin's overall appearance, vitality, firmness, clarity, nourishment and skin turnover. The Sulwhasoo First Care Activating Serum Mist provides an incredibly concentrated moisture that is instantly absorbed into the skin. The mist soothes the senses with its aromatic herbal fragrance, and its refreshing effect can be enjoyed anytime, anywhere, while providing your skin with all the benefits of Sulwhasoo's sophisticated formula.
What exactly is the JAUM Balancing Complex™? It's Sulwhasoo's unique formula that replenishes the yin energy to restore balance lost with age. Approximately 3,000 traditional Korean medicinal herbs, such as the "Boncho gangmok" and "Sinnongbonchogyeong" are used for cosmetic purposes as identified in ancient Korean texts—and after thousands of tests, 163 were selected for their efficacy. Among these 163 medicinal herbs, Sulwhasoo narrowed the selection down to 30 of the most powerful for further research. By testing the efficacies of each medicinal herb, Sulwhasoo finally discovered the five optimum ingredients, namely: Peony, Sacred Lotus, Solomon's Seal, White Lily, and Rehmannia. But this luxury Korean brand did not stop there. They applied the traditional method of brewing while testing the formula every 10 minutes, in order to allow the five ingredients to create a synergy through 'Harmony and Balance'.
After numerous tests, Sulwhasoo discovered that the ingredients did not reach their peak potency when brewed less than 18 hours, and became ineffective when brewed longer. Thus, they concluded that 18 hours was the optimal brewing time, giving birth to the JAUM Balancing Complex™, which leaves the skin smooth and moisturized, and replenishes its energy deficiency in order to restore the skin's balance.
What does all this mean? Sulwhasoo has bridged the gap between ancient wisdom and modern technique to bring you one of the most elegant and powerful mists available on the market today. Indulge your skin in thousands of years of knowledge, cutting edge extraction and brewing techniques, and see the wondrous results for yourself today.
Our insight:
Using a spritz of mist in between each of your skincare steps adds a serious layer of hydration, boosting the effects of your skincare regimen and providing your skin with major boost from the incredibly powerful herbs and extracts with each shot!
How to use:
Before using, give the mist bottle a thorough shake to mix the oil-water essence. At a 3-5 inch distance, lightly spray the mist onto face. Gently wrap your palms around your face and press in to promote absorption.

Brand info:
This prestige beauty brand, focused on hanbang ingredients indigenous to Korea, is as highly respected in its native land as it is abroad. Proof? Locals say its Ginseng Cream is something you'd gift to a potential mother-in-law. In its earliest iteration, that ginseng cream was what launched Sulwhasoo over 50 years ago. While helping his mother's camellia oil business, Sulwhasoo founder Suh Sung-whan came to appreciate the power of traditional Korean herbs. Working with Kyunghee University of Oriental Medicine to blend traditional Korean medicinal herbs and methods with science-backed research, Suh founded the company that would become Sulwhasoo in 1966. All of Sulwhasoo's ingredients are meticulously cultivated in AmorePacific's herb farm, from the saponin-rich ginseng to white lily to East Indian lotus. Its signature formula of jaumdan, which consists of five potent herbs, targets the body's Yin energy to fight dryness, dark spots, and inflammation. In 2004, Sulwhasoo became a best seller in Hong Kong, and in 2010, the prestige skincare line made its North American debut at Bergdorf Goodman.
Reviews & Comments 2
This product is amazing. The ultra fine mist hydrates my skin beautifully without running my makeup down my face. The herbal smell is like being in a day spa. Great for a freshen up at any time of the day.
I don't know that I can do this product justice by reviewing it, but I'll try. If you're looking for a light way to include oil in your daily routine, this is it. If you want the finest atomizer ever known to mankind on a mist bottle, this is it. If you're hopelessly addicted to beautiful skin, then this is a must have. I've been using this for a few weeks now, and it adds a level of moisture to my skin that is utterly surprising. I've used it on days when I was completely lazy and didn't want to... Read more
Thanks for the review! You have convinced me to pick it up!! :)
I hope you love it, mochiandblush! I have to restrain myself from spraying it excessively because it smells so lovely. It\'s amazing in between layers of serum, too.
Thanks Tracy! Sulwhasoo makes the best smelling items!! I heart them so much! :)
OMG I've been adding and removing it from my cart for the past few days HAHA because I tried it at the counter and it was SO good, just like how you described it! Maybe I'll wait for the next time it goes on sale :/
One question, is the 110ml one unwieldy? I can't decide between getting a 50ml to try first or going straight for the 110ml.
Ba ha ha! I do that, too. In the cart. Out of the cart. :)
Buy the 110ml. It's not any bigger than most Sulwhasoo (or other toner) bottles, and once you buy it, you'll want as much of it as you can humanly handle. This one puts all other mists to shame.

By Morgan McSmith
Living in an area surrounded by water can make it hard to believe how scarce such an imperative source can be. As the world watches one of the largest cities in South Africa drip dry, people have begun to wonder how this happens and what steps to take to prevent it from happening.
Looking at Cape Town's water crisis highlights some major issues regarding water sustainability and population growth. Without the proper planning many areas around the world could find themselves counting down to "day zero" as well.
Australia has seen this before during the Millennium Drought from 2001 to 2009 when large regions across the country experienced prolonged periods of dry conditions, making it the worst drought on record in Australia. From 2012 to 2015 there was another scare in Queensland when rainfall patterns fell drastically.
Associate professor Neil Tindale says when Australia experienced the major Millennium Drought most people didn't realize how close Queensland got to running out of water.
"Can you imagine what it would be like when you went into your house and turned the tap on or flushed the toilet and nothing happened?" he asks. "Most people have never had that situation. Water is something most people in Australia take for granted and don't appreciate how serious the issue is."
Australia is the driest inhabited continent in the world, the only drier one being Antarctica and that's only the first major concern. Like many other locations across the globe water sustainability in Australia relies directly on precipitation, which is currently dwindling.
"The trend present in this region is that our precipitation is declining, in other words our rainfall is getting less which means that our population is getting greater, our demand for water is increasing but the water available is decreasing in terms of precipitation," Dr Tindale says. "If the amount of precipitation and rainfall decreases then obviously the amount of water will also. But drought in Australia is not unusual. In fact in many places' droughts are much more likely than wet conditions and large parts of Australia can go years without getting any appreciable rain which can be a bit scary."
Rainfall between May and July has reduced by about 19 per cent in Western Australia since 1970. Since the mid-1990's growing season (April-October) rainfall in the southeast of the continent has declined around 11 per cent. Considering agriculture uses around 62 per cent of Australia's total water consumption, this is especially concerning. Looking at March 2018 alone, rainfall has decreased in inland and western Queensland and the east coast of New South Wales. Western to central and southern Queensland have continued to experience severe rainfall deficiencies throughout the last several months.
One of the simplest ways to keep an eye on the amount of rainfall a region has received is by checking the dam levels. The Sunshine Coast falls into Grid Twelve which is made up of 12 South East Queensland dams and as long as we continue to have enough rainfall to keep them full we're headed in the right direction.
In preparation for a drought SEQwater (Southeast Queensland Water) has created certain regulations in regards to what is done once water in the dams start to decrease. When the dams reach 70 per cent Southeast Queensland enters a "drought readiness stage". At 60 per cent the "drought response" starts where a campaign is launched encouraging residents to restrict water usage to 150 litres per person per day. If the dams reach 50 per cent compulsory water restrictions will be enforced limiting individuals to 140 litres of water per day. To put that into perspective, during the Millennium Drought the combined dam levels dropped to about 20 percent, which is nearly the same (20.9 per cent) as current water levels in the Cape Town dams.
Essentially the dams are empty once they get that low as all of the sediment and pollution sinks to the bottom making the water nearly impossible to treat. As we enter the dry season the average capacity for all 12 dams is just above 82 per cent. However, in 2017 the Sunshine Coast experienced their second consecutive failed wet season, with the largest dam on the Coast, Baroon Pocket, experiencing record lows. When it comes to water in our dams, the more is the merrier.
However, that's not always the case with the growing numbers of society. The second issue concerning water sustainability that relates specifically to the Sunshine Coast is population growth. Growing populations demand more water for domestic, industrial, and municipal use as well as the evacuation of waste materials and agriculture. Ultimately, population growth limits the water availability per person.
Sunshine Coast deputy mayor Tim Dwyer says that the Southeast Queensland plan for the next 20-30 years sees the population of the Sunshine Coast going from about 330,000 to about 550,000.
"If we get good rainfall our water supplies on the Coast will be adequate, if we don't have the capacity in the Baroon Pocket dam, the Ewen Maddock dam and the Wappa dam obviously our ability to service the growing community in the future will be compromised," he says.
"We need to be able to stay in front of things at the time or before population growth hits us, we can't be playing catch up like we're doing with our roads and public transport systems at the moment. We can't get into that situation with water."
During the 20th century the global human population increased fourfold while water withdrawn from freshwater ecosystems increased eightfold. Queensland's population increased about 1.6 per cent from 2016 to 2017. From 2016 to 2021 the Sunshine Coast is estimated to expect a 2.65 per cent population increase. Population growth is simply an undeniable aspect regarding water sustainability.
As population grows globally, projections estimate by 2035 3.6 billion people around the world will be living with water stress or scarcity. The two concerns, rainfall and population growth, run parallel when looking at the big picture of water sustainability. The catch being, we have little control over neither of them.
Unfortunately what tends to happen when supply (water) decreases and demand (population) increases is that the price increases as well. This can be seen in 2016 when the fixed household water tariff on the Coast was $245 compared to areas like Toowoomba where water is scarcer, the cost was significantly higher at $590. As demand increases with population the cost of water is bound to as well. In Cape Town water cost has skyrocketed in the hope of reducing water consumption.
However, Mr Dwyer says he thinks water has got to be at cost price. "Water has to be made affordable, there's no doubt about that," he says.
While we might not have control of annual precipitation, population growth and/or cost there are things that can be done to limit water usage helping ensure water sustainability on the Coast. On average the Australian household uses about 340 litres of water per day. In 2015-16 a total of 16,132 gigalitres was consumed in Australia increasing household water consumption by 3 per cent compared to the previous year.
The demand for water is impacted by climate, population growth, weather and changes in how the community consumes water. For instance, during the hot dry spells of February and September in 2017 water usage spiked from the average 176 litres to 211 litres per person per day.
Mr Dwyer says it's the little things that will help the Coast's water sustainability and we should be doing whatever we can to reduce the amount of town water we get into. "Everyone has to do what's right for them but whatever you can do to make sure the amount of water you use is as small as possible will help," he says. "Don't wait for the government to mandate you, do something. Everybody has a shared responsibility to look after things that are important to us."

Bad News Update
>> Thursday, September 06, 2007
If you didn't hear the bad news read the post directly below this one first.
Well, it's about 10pm. I am spending the night at the hospital with my step mother. I will head home in the morning when my brother and sister come. And I'm sure I'll be back for quite a while tomorrow. And the next day...
Dad has still not regained conscienceness but he did nod when we spoke to him and he did squeeze my brother's hand. He's on pain meds now as he can feel pain. And there is a lot of it.
So, really, not much has changed. It's going to be a long night.
I was awoken by the nurse saying "Squeeze my hand" to my dad. He had come out of the fog of painkillers for a few minutes and seemed conscience. He was able to squeeze her hand a bit. He opened his eyes a bit and was quite restless. I'm sure he was experiencing a lot of pain. I spoke to him and told him who had been there, who would be coming. He nedded and seemed to want to answer. He seemed, of course, very confused.
I don't think he is breathing on his own yet, which is not good. And though he could see me (I think) and he was responding I am not sure that he knew me. I hope he did.

Louisiana rapper Lil Boosie is ready to leave a distinctive mark on the rap game by adding fellow Southern hip-hop artist Big K.R.I.T. to his growing collaboration wish list.
According to K.R.I.T., he found out of Boosie Bad Azz's intent to work with him through a family member.
"It's crazy because his brother promoted a show for me before Boosie got out, and he was like, "Man Boosie really want to work with you." And I'm like, "Word?" I'm kind of shocked, like, "Okay, yeah put it together if you can." And I just kind of went by my way. And then I was in New York, right before SXSW, shooting a video. And he called me, and my man was like, "Boosie want to talk to you." And I was like, "Word." And he was just like, "Man, I want to come though, make some beats and vibe." And I was like, "Hell yeah, I'm there." (Nah Right)
Recently, G-Unit's 50 Cent revealed Boosie reached out to him as soon as he became a free man last month.
"Boosie had an idea that we were doing together and I'm not sure if I ever got back his vocals on it. Because right after, he was charged with murder and then that shit just got out of hand. I got to get up with him. He tried to reach out to me as soon as he got out but I was travelling and had so much shit going on. I'll give him a call this week. I haven't had a chance to finish [the song] but possibly you can hear something from me and Lil Boosie." (VIBE)
Boosie Bad Azz recently talked about his fame and wanting to reach rap mogul Jay Z's high-profile status.
While he was behind bars, the 31-year-old become a rap champion of sorts, and now that the "Free Boosie" movement can happily quell, the Louisiana native wants to lift himself to "Jay Z status," he tells BET.com. In the future, he aspires to spread out in different directions, like Hov has done with the Roc Nation record label, in addition to sports, film, and management ventures. Climbing up to Jay's level is a slow journey, and one that Bossie says he's ready for. "I know it'll take a little time." (BET)
While fans have to wait for its full-length release, behind-the-scenes footage from Boosie and fellow Louisiana rapper Webbie's "Show the World" shoot landed online a few weeks ago.
Boosie been busy since his release from prison. Having taken his first selfie, dropped a freestyle on the ride home from the pen, and held a press conference, he's now back with his old running mate Webbie, shooting a video for their song "Show the World.' Kids, remember what Webbie says, stay in school. Also, don't forget to wear your Jimmy Graham jersey backwards. (Complex)

|Just a reminder of what it looked like after a couple of turns.
After checking the instructions, I placed the light infantry as a flank guard, posted behind a marsh as per a die roll. The Cavalry were given the left flank and one infantry Brigade was posted on the right while the other took the centre. Each had an attached battery.
Now, a proper deployment of the time would normally have seen each brigade in a single line with a separate brigade forming a 2nd line. Well, the table was not long enough for my brigades to form in a single line but too long to be covered by 1 Brigade, so, I put one Battalion of each Brigade in reserve with the independent battalion in army reserve as per the deployment roll.
For the Attackers, I rolled up a plan of using 1/2 the army to press directly on the near flank while the other half manoeuvred to pin the centre and far flank. Since there were woods and a marshy bit on the left I put all of the light infantry there, put the cavalry on the right and sent in the infantry, 2 brigades deep in the centre with artillery to either side. About 1/2 way through I had to make a second die roll to see if the plan was modified and this directed me to send the light troops on my left backed by any reserve around that flank of the enemy line since it was still holding.
The first couple of turns were a bit rocky as I had proposed a return to the original 4,5,6 to hit rule which I had dropped a few years ago since it was too bloody. It soon became obvious that it was still too bloody and I quietly dropped the 4 apart from sharpshooters etc.
I also realized mid-game that when doling out the light infantry, all single figures, mostly on sabots, I had meant to deploy 3 figures on a wide base as a "stand" with 2 per unit, capable of acting as independent units but having only small sabots on hand which were crowded with 3 figures, I placed them in pairs with 4 figures then immediately forgot that each pair of sabots was 1 "stand". So, in effect, I doubled the number of light infantry.
Oh well, at least all of these things applied to both sides.
Apart from that, it all went very well indeed. A tense game with some swings of fortune, some good tactical decisions and a few "shouldn't ha' done that" moments. I had set my now usual 15 turn limit and while it was looking very iffy for Rosmark's attack by around turn 10, the order change allowing a left hook by the light troops who now outnumbered the defending light troops by 3:1 threatened to reverse the fortunes of the day. The additional pressure here and the weight of artillery fire had the Alliance starting to feel uneasy but the Rosmark Chasseurs suddenly seemed to run out of bullets while the Alliance ones finally found the range. A desperate all out assault by the Rosmark infantry almost turned the tide at the last moment but the battered remnant of the Old Brigade held and the Yellow Hussars twice refused an order to charge up the hill despite the success of an earlier charge, which had pushed back the white coats and overran a battery of guns, and the moment passed.
I fully expected to miss the grid but the combination of larger, based, units and my painted measuring sticks in 3" increments was every bit as easy and managed a better ratio of weapon range to unit frontage without having to resort to 2 grid area wide units or doing away with all non-skirmisher musketry.
The new version of Orders, something I have been tinkering with since the 1980's, finally worked the way I have wanted it to. Try, try and try again!
What's coming next is still a surprise. To me that is. There is no "Ready for Paint" pool to draw on right now, just a choice between cast and assemble some new figures, cobble a partial unit out the various bits boxes or refurbish(yawwn) something, and I have yet to prepare a heated spot for winter casting.
But it's -16C outside and there are various chores, mostly outside, which I suddenly don't feel like doing today, so, there is time for... well..something.
Link to current version of Hearts of Tin rules.
(Note: the following summary will not be updated but the link above will remain attached to the current version as it is updated and filled out.)
(Abbreviated Version)
Basic: Units are 3 stands of infantry or cavalry, 2 stands of artillery or skirmishers or train. Light infantry and artillery may be split into 1/2 units. Single stands may be fielded as outposts or garrisons. Measurements are in "lengths" as selected for figure and table size. Standard units are 2 lengths wide in line.
Initiative Deck. The game is designed to be played using a standard deck of cards to decide who goes first each turn and as "Chance Cards" which are amongst the oldest methods for adding a little uncertainty to wargames. Shuffle an ordinary card deck including the jokers then draw as many cards as the maximum number of turns to be played to make the game deck. Assign Black to one Side and Red to the other. At the start of each turn draw the top card. The colour indicates which player will go first that turn. If it is a face card then a "Chance Event" has happened to that player. If it is a Joker the turn is over and another card must be drawn. When the last card is played, the game is over.
King: Getting the Jump. The player may choose one unit that may move or shoot or rally before the turn starts. The units may act again as normal during the turn.
Queen: Angel of Mercy. The player may remove 1 hit from a unit.
Jack: Confusion. The enemy may nominate one brigade or detached unit and issue it a valid order, rolling with a -2 to the die but ignoring all normal modifiers. If successful the unit may not be given a different order that turn but if it fails the unit may be ordered as normal.
Ace. They couldn't hit an Elephant. Pick one of your enemy's commanders who is within range of one of your units and roll 1 die. On a score of 1 that commander is hit by a sniper or stray shot and is removed.
Joker. Where does the time go? The turn is over. Pull the next card. The turn counts as having been played for things like the arrival of reinforcements and the end of the game but not for things like mining a bridge.
Sequence: Active player issues Orders then moves OR shoots OR rallies units. Then resolve melee.
Command Control: Generals and Brigadiers. The General cannot be everywhere at once but may intervene where it is important. He may move at light cavalry speed to attach to a Brigade or independent unit at the start of the orders phase.
Brigades are 2-4 units plus Brigadier. Brigades and Independent units require an order to move or attack or to change their destination. Units in a Brigade must stay within 1 move of their Brigadier or within a base width a unit of their Brigade which is within command.
Orders are:
- Hold. May be assumed automatically when some orders fail or cannot be executed or may be ordered to stop a movement or attack before it is complete. Needs 2+. If failed continue previous order.
- Move. Needs die roll of 2+ Must have specific destination. If no route specified move by direct route. May not move within 1 length of enemy and the brigade will revert to Hold if the way is blocked. If it fails the roll go on Hold orders. When destination is reached go on Hold orders. If not playing solo it is useful to write down the destination and path if any.
- Attack. Needs roll of 4+ unless already on Prepare to Attack. Must specify target of the attack. Normally a terrain feature or position. Move directly towards the specified target and attack. If fail go on Prepare to Attack orders for next turn. Brigade/Unit may form to face enemy then must move forward. Artillery and Train units may not be given an Attack order.
-1 if General is attached to a different Brigade/Unit or is more than 6 lengths away or has no line of sight to Brigade/Unit or has been lost.
-1 if the Brigadier has been lost.
-2 if Brigade has lost 1/2 or more of stands and is being ordered to Attack.
Movement: Measure farthest point moved. Change facing as required.

What is a Commercial Loan?
If you've never borrowed money for your business, you may be in for a surprise. Whether you want to borrow working capital to expand your business or leverage equity in a commercial real estate venture, you will soon find the commercial loan process is very different from the more-common home mortgage process. Commercial loans, unlike the vast majority of residential mortgages, are ultimately backed by a governmental entity such as Fannie Mae. Consequently, most commercial lenders are risk-averse; they charge higher interest rates.
What do I Need to Qualify?
Credit Scores– One of the main differences between a residential and commercial loan is the amount of weight the credit score holds. It's always better to have a good credit score. For residential mortgages, a lot hinges on your credit scores only, and of course income. But with commercial real estate loans, credit score is not the top consideration.
Net Worth– When applying for a commercial loan, one of the first things a lender will look at is the business's net worth. Your net worth is the difference between your assets and your liabilities.
However, a net worth equal to or greater than the loan isn't always the rule. For the example above, you could have a net worth of $600,000 or $800,000, but you need to make up for it with something else. For example, if you have a high income, then net worth isn't as important.
Liquidity– Liquidity is also a significant factor. For a $1,250,000 loan, if covering the $250,000 down payment exhausts all your liquid cash, the lenders will look upon that as a little weary because you have no cash left. They don't like to see someone use all their cash after a closing and then not have anything for an emergency, such as a $10,000 to $20,000 deductible for an insurance claim.
The liquidity requirement varies from lender to lender. The general rule is 10% to 20% of the loan amount. If you want to borrow a million dollars, you have to have at least $100,000 after closing; $150,000 or $200,000 is even better. Other times lenders may require 6 to 12 months' worth of principal and interest payment. If the monthly payment is $10,000, for example, a lender may want to see $120,000 in liquidity.
Ownership & Management– The lender will also want to know about your ownership experience. Owning a duplex or three or four single-family rentals, or maybe 10 or 12 (you could even have 30 of them) – that's even better if you have a large portfolio of single-family rentals. But if you've only had one or two, and maybe a couple of duplexes, that's not the same as a multifamily because it's a little bit different animal.
If you are purchasing anywhere between 5 and up to maybe 50 units, the lender will pretty much allow you to self-manage the property because there's not a lot of third-party management of that size; it's just too small, and they don't make enough money on it. Therefore, since you will be self-managing, the lender will want you to have previous management experience. Do you know about leasing? Do you know how to perform credit checks, verify employment, and run a background check?
If you aren't managing the property yourself, however, ownership experience will be more important than management experience.
Income– Finally, the last area a lender will be asking about is your income, whether you're self-employed or a W2 employee. If you already own a portfolio of properties, they will want to look at your global cash flow, which is how much cash you earn after debt service. If you experience a hardship on one property, the lender wants to make sure you can move cash around to keep all your debt service intact.
There's no ratio on [global cash flow]. We typically don't use your debt-to-income ratio, in commercial real estate. We look at the property's loan-to-value, and debt coverage ratio, meaning how much does the net operating income exceed the monthly principle and interest payment.

Lori, it's a nice thought: your friends going to hospital with you to help lessen the stress and pain! Your poochies will miss you and I see you also make arrangements not to leave them alone. I am already planning my trip in June that my house lady comes in every morning to feed my cats and then again in the afternoon to set out clean water, and evening cookie treats.

With the 10th Street Bridge scheduled to be closed, it is anticipated response times for the Owen Sound Fire & Emergency Services (OSFES) as well as the Inter Township Fire Department (ITFD) could be impacted due to both departments using alternate routes to cross town.
Working cooperatively with the Municipality of Meaford and the Township of Georgian Bluffs, a plan has been developed to maintain public safety and response times.
The 10th Street corridor is a main route for the ITFD and the OSFES to respond to emergency calls. It is anticipated this bridge closure will affect our response to the west side of town and the ITFD's response to the east side of town. An agreement has been approved by Meaford and Georgian Bluffs Councilsin an effort to minimize any impact to fire emergency service levels to the citizens of Owen Sound, Georgian Bluffs and Meaford.The plan is to make fire prevention services available reciprocally among the partners.
This will be accomplished by:
- OSFES housing a pumper at the ITFD from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. staffed by 2 suppression staff.
- If the OSFES truck and staff is dispatched to a fire or life threatening incident on the City's west side, the on duty ITFD staff will respond and assist until the otherOSFES staff arrive on scene
- The ITFD will house one pumper at the Owen Sound station 24/7. ITFD staff will respond to the Owen Sound station and respond to the incident from that location
- In the event the ITFD are called to a life-threatening incident orstructure fire in the Sydenham area, if required, ITFD staff will instruct dispatch to request OSFES to respond with one pumper tanker with 1 officer and 2 firefighters if available and they will respond immediately. The OSFES apparatus and staff will remain on scene until adequate ITFD staff arrive on scene. The ITFD Incident Commander will determine when OSFES staff may clear the scene.
- ITFD staff will advise fire dispatch if and when the OSFES pumper and crew is requested. Dispatch will tone out the Owen Sound station along with a description of the incident and directions.
- This agreement will stay in effect from the closing of the 10thStreet Bridge until it is reopened for daily traffic.
- Any response under this agreement will be considered a sharing ofservices and there will be no cost recovery by any party involved.Any request for assistance over and above this described agreement will be considered a mutual aid response.
- All parties involved may agree to modify this agreement while it is in place.

Dr Dan Fisher shares stateside knowledge
Posted on 18, November 2009
As reported by Mary O'Hara in the Society Guardian, Dr Dan Fisher MD, PhD, has flown over from the States to be the keynote speaker at Together's first ever national conference, which is being held at the Royal College of Physicians today.
Dan, who experienced schizophrenia before training as a psychiatrist, was one of two key mental health advisors to the Obama presidential campaign. He is a positive role model for people with experience of mental health issues, the Executive Director of the National Empowerment Center in Massachusetts and a steering committee member of the National Coalition of Mental Health Consumer/Survivor Organisations (NCMHCSO).
Different models of personalisation have been operating stateside for more than a decade. Against this backdrop the implementation of personalised mental health services in England is relatively new.
At Together's conference Should Service Users lead the Personalisation Agenda? Personally, Locally, Strategically? Dan will be talking about how personalisation has been made to work in the USA, give an overview of working with direct payments, and discussing how to prove its value and impact by evidencing associated health benefits, as well as cost savings.
Other leading practitioners in the field, all of whom have also experienced mental health issues, will be sharing best practice and running workshops aimed at demonstrating how people with experience must be at the centre of planning personalised services.
Together believes that service user leadership at every level is critical to the success of personalisation and have made it one of our key strategic objectives. By 2014 we are aiming for all people using our mental health services to be able to fully direct their own support, and be able to access services using personal and individual budgets.
A crucial part of this is the re-balancing of power between services users and professionals, with a growth in peer led and peer support services. Together believes that we are well-placed to do this given our investment in service user involvement.

The Chronicles of Dust Mask
Even if it's the case that the respirator fits well a single day, it may not the next. Changing filters also makes it less difficult to breathe utilizing the respirator. The Advantage MSA respirators arrive in various models, each focused around diverse particular applications.
Filters may persist for a couple of minutes or a couple of days based on how much chemical is in the air where they're used. When you have a little air compressor it's possible to run a random orbital sander with a vacuum system attached to it. In case the air stays in the respirator, it is most likely an excellent seal. You only have to add water to it. When you have completed the cleaning, check in the event the computer is working properly. Spray-based rust cleaners are very simple to use as in the instance of contemporary rust removal chemicals. Take care when utilizing a hair dryer as it becomes extremely hot.
In case the mask isn't comfortable, you will rather not wear it when it is necessary. There are lots of kinds of asbestos masks you need to search for in order to remain safe. If you prefer to have a step up, then you ought to strongly think about a reusable mask. A standard vapor mask resembles a particulate mask that has a small canister positioned horizontally underneath it.
You wind up trying to form the mask all around your nose tightly enough, so that you ought to make certain to get a good disposable mask so that you may reach a better fit and keep protected. Now you know how to create a dust mask, you can decide on one of these types. You don't have to put on a dust mask to safeguard yourself. You may want a dust mask to shield yourself from the dust that might have gathered up over time. A dust mask is intended to be disposable and ought not to be reused. It helps to protect the person's lungs from damage caused by inhaling these particulates. For this undertaking, you may want to put on a dust mask and goggles.
Rust, like steel, will abrade by means of sandpaper. Removing rust isn't a simple task. If, but the paint is chipped, peeling, crackling, or has other troubles, you may not have the ability to prevent the sandpaper. Before beginning painting the exterior of your house, it is vital to fix and prepare the surfaces you anticipate repainting. If you blow attic insulation, you will not just save on power debts, but in addition make your house comfortable. One other important situation to keep in mind is maintaining appropriate ventilation for the attic.
Some people today develop allergy symptoms when they're around cockroaches. In case you have asthma or other breathing difficulties, it may be hard to breathe utilizing a mask or respirator. Breathing in a disposable respirator can get difficult in the event the filter material gets clogged. Furthermore, you don't want to risk breathing in the more compact particles since this can cause respiratory problems too.
For a little ceiling medallion, you ought to be able to hold this up with one hand whilst tracing around it using a pencil. The entire face part is flexible and features a 1 part lens with an exceptional area of vision. When you cut up various parts of wood, there'll be small bits flying everywhere, regardless of what type of shields your tool might have.

Outdoor Learning Campaign
Teachers and school districts employ a variety of different teaching strategies to help students learn, but students are the experts in how they want to be taught. For this campaign, Hear Me partnered with the Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy. Hear Me asked students to talk about the role that hands-on learning outdoors could or should play in their education. For the purposes of this campaign, Hear Me and the Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy defined outdoor environmental education as a process that allows students to learn about and investigate their environment, and to make intelligent, informed decisions about how they can take care of their environment.
