August Congressional Recess Perfect Opportunity to Meet Your Congresmember
Attend a Town Hall During the August Congressional Recess and Ask a Question about Housing Funds or Policy
Members of Congress are on an August Congressional Recess and will be home through Labor Day.
Now is the perfect time to schedule an in-district meeting or site visit with your federal lawmakers to educate them about the importance of affordable housing and how potential budget cuts will hurt people with low incomes.
Eleven members of New Jerseys congressional delegation attended the July 26 Congressional Reception in Washington, D.C. And one staffer sent staff from his office.
Inviting your federal lawmakers during the August Congressional Recess to tour your affordable housing or to an in-district meeting with individuals impacted by homelessness and the affordable housing crisis is a wonderful way to follow up on the success of the Congressional Reception. The Congressional Reception took place in conjunction with the NLIHC's Our Homes, Our Voices Housing Week of Action.
Some resources you can use for the August Congressional Recess include:
- Summer 2017 Issues Guide: Top five critical issues before Congress.
- Resources from the Our Homes, Our Voices campaign: Resources include talking points, sample op-eds, tweets, and how-to guides for setting up in-district meetings and site visits.
- Town Halls: Check out townhallproject.com to see if your lawmakers are holding town hall meetings you can attend.
Congressman Norcross is holding another town hall on Wednesday, August 9, 2017 at 7:30 p.m. at the Carmen Tilelli Community Center at 820 Mercer St, Cherry Hill, NJ 08002. Call (856) 216-2119 to per-register.
If you attend a Town Hall with your elected official, here are some housing questions to ask:
- Question 1: Only 1 in 4 people who need housing assistance gets this help. Without a deal to lift the spending caps, this shortfall could get even worse if we see funding cuts to programs that help families keep roofs over their heads. Where will these families go if they are evicted from their homes or are forced to live out of their cars?
- Question 2: Without a bipartisan deal to lift spending caps, Congress may cut or eliminate resources that our state uses to revitalize distressed areas, build senior centers and health clinics, help families get out of shelters and into homes, and help the lowest income people afford a place to live. What are you doing to help reach a budget deal?
- Question 3: We are facing an affordable rental housing crisis in our state and across the nation. It will be impossible to solve this problem unless Congress lifts the spending caps so that we can invest more — not less — in housing opportunities. Will you commit to this? And what more should Congress be doing to address this national crisis?
- Question 4: Republicans in Congress are currently discussing ways to reform the mortgage interest deduction in the broader conversation around tax reform. This raises the question of how Congress should invest the savings generated by mortgage interest deduction reform: lower tax rates or reinvest the savings in affordable housing. Do you support keeping housing dollars in housing?

When I Get Older, Losing My Hair
I don't feel older. Okay, sure, my stomach has been giving me some strange problems for the past several days. Not sure if it's a stomach virus or something more indicative of my age. And yes, I don't have as much hair as I used to (though it was goofy looking, sometimes I miss that big hair and mullet I had in my 20's). And, okay, my body creaks a little when I move a certain way and I'm not nearly as flexible as I used to be. And while I've a bald spot and receding hairline up top, other hair has sprung up in strange places that hair doesn't belong -- old man fashion.
But in many ways, I don't feel a day older than 17.
I recall my father's 40th birthday and sitting around with the family celebrating it. It seemed like such a landmark and it seemed so darn far away. My father seemed mature, responsible, the fully confident head of our household and, okay, I'll be honest -- OLD. Looking at him that day, I remember thinking how far away the age of 21 seemed to me, nevermind 40. And, lo and behold, 40 snuck up on me and here it is. And yet while I know I must be responsible and if not mature, then at least capable of acting mature when the situation calls for it, I still don't feel "old."
I suppose that's a good thing.
I was going to start listing a bunch of landmark things that I'd hoped to accomplish by this age, but I never really established a list of things I'd wanted to accomplish by the time I was 40.
One thing I've always wanted to do was write. And I've at least had some moderate success in that area. It's nice to know that I've stuck with something for so long that I've been truly passionate about for most of my life -- that feels really good.
From the time I was a young teenager, I remember sitting in the basement on a hot summer day while outside the window a group of friends were running around, laughing and splashing in the pool -- and there I was, sitting at my mom's old Underwood typewriter and pounding out a terrible novel inspired by some Dungeons & Dragons adventures I'd had. There was fun and games to be had outside, but there was a story and characters tearing around inside my head that were begging to be released onto the page. That hasn't changed -- characters, situations and ideas continue to plague me. What also plagues me is being able to find the time to get them all down onto a page. (Although it's a virtual page these days rather than a physical one)
Back back to physical pages, and typewriters, I remember trying desperately to find a photocopier (those were rare back then) so I could copy a story I had typed up and send it to a publisher for publication consideration. (Because otherwise I'd have to re-type it every time I wanted to send that story out) -- technology has certainly made that process easier.
Of course, technology has also taken many things away from my writing time. Rather than sitting in the basement pounding out a story or novel, I spend time goofing around online, a minute here, a minute there -- the next thing you know, an hour has passed and I haven't gotten any real writing done.
Like now, for instance. Here I sit, having gotten up early with the intent to write, but instead I've farted around on Facebook, checked my email, then babbled on a meaningless blog post.
Time I could have spent writing.
Gee, I wonder if, along with my hair, I've also lost that sense of discipline that allowed me to stick to a writing project?

welcome to 40. mullet or not it looks good on you and list or not i'd say you have achieved great success in life. you have a wife and son you adore, a job you love and you get to write (and enjoy success with it). may the next 40 be full of more love and success as well (but please, never resurrect the mullet). :)
What do I keep saying about your writing time? Stop going on line and blogging and get down to writing. You are still 17 - only then you were unfocused cause you were thinking of boobies and now you are unfocused and looking at boobies!

Our Ohio office has much to celebrate this year! We opened the Ohio offices three years ago, and the team has grown substantially since then. Ohio is a region in which EEI already enjoyed many major partnerships with clients, so growing our team has allowed us to take on more work while offering additional educational benefits to our clients. In fact, our Ohio team can currently offer a USGBC and AIA accredited course on Monitoring-Based Commissioning to interested facilities management staff, architects, and anyone interested in gaining CEUs this year. We look forward to offering new courses in the near future.
Just this summer, our Columbus branch moved to a new office and is officially up and running in the new location. Our Ohio team would be happy to meet with you in the office or at an alternate location to discuss your upcoming commissioning needs. In fact, our Ohio Branch Manager, Mike Ball, is offering a complimentary hour of consultation to interested parties in the Columbus area! Call Mike at 614-257-9246 or email him at email@example.com to schedule your consultation today!
The Ohio team consistently finds interesting and unique projects to work on, and has made an impression throughout the State. One major accomplishment was receiving the American Electric Power (AEP) Retrocommissioning Provider of the Year award last year! AEP is the local utility provider in the region and EEI Ohio has been working with the company to identify energy savings opportunities in a variety of facilities in Ohio. Our team is just wrapping the AEP Service Center in Lucasville and has already found several key opportunities for improvement that will save the owners money. The team is also wrapping up the Pomerene and Oxley Halls Renovation project at the Ohio State University (OSU); the first project that EEI Ohio officially landed! EEI is working on several commissioning projects for OSU, including healthcare and higher education projects. One exciting project that is currently underway is the Schumaker Student-Athlete Development Center, a new athletic training center on OSU's campus that will allow a variety of student athletes to train at a single state-of-the-art facility!
We are thrilled that the EEI Ohio office continues to witness success and look forward to seeing what they do next!

Best Action Movie
Top Contributors: Mark Ryan Sallee, SteveButts, Greg Miller + more
Not only can Sam Mendes direct action, he can also make it look beautiful. There's still plenty of action in Skyfall, including a barnstorming finale, but the film is unafraid to intersperse it within scenes of literary dialogue and emotion. The action here is all in service of telling a story about betrayal and revenge, and one that takes Bond back to his ancestral home and makes him evaluate the few relationships he has.

SALT LAKE CITY (KUTV) - Coffee lovers rejoice; you can have that late-night cup of coffee and it won't affect the quality of your sleep, according to a new study which was reported in The Independent.
The same goes for caffeinated tea, according to the study published in Sleep.
Researchers from Harvard Medical School and Flordia Atlantic University arrived at their conclusions after studying 785 people for a total of 5,164 days and nights.
The researchers then recorded how much caffeine, alcohol, and nicotine people consumed.
Those results were compared with wrist sensors and sleep diaries which recorded sleep duration, sleep efficiency, and how quickly people awoke after falling asleep.
Researchers found that while alcohol and nicotine both disrupted sleep, caffeine seemed to have no effect, which was surprising to researchers.
Writing in the journal Sleep, Dr. Christine Spadola, of Florida Atlantic University said:
This study represents one of the largest longitudinal examinations of the associations of evening use of alcohol, caffeine, and nicotine with objectively measured sleep outcomes. A night with use of nicotine and/or alcohol within four hours of bedtime demonstrated worse sleep continuity than a night without. We did not observe an association between ingestion of caffeine within four hours of bed with any of the sleep parameters.
Nicotine was the biggest sleep disruptor, taking off a total of 42 minutes of sleep time on average.
Other doctors say it's a myth that drinking coffee before bed will keep you awake. It all depends on the person and how their body reacts to caffeine.
Sleep expert Dr, Neil Stanley told The Independent:
Some people are very sensitive to the effects of caffeine and for these people it's important to avoid drinking beverages containing caffeine too close to bedtime – but there is no golden rule about this, just listen to your body. For some people the effects caused by caffeine are much lower and [it] may not have any effects at all. If you have been drinking two strong black cups of coffee every evening for the past 40 years and you have just developed a sleeping problem, then it is almost certainly not the coffee.
The conclusion to the study published in Sleep reads:
Nicotine and alcohol use within 4 hours of bedtime were associated with increased sleep fragmentation in the associated night, even after controlling for multiple potential confounders. These findings support the importance of sleep health recommendations that promote the restriction of evening alcohol and nicotine use to improve sleep continuity.

Moving To Johor Bahru From Singapore
The high cost of living in Singapore can make you more curious about living a different life north of the border. Johor Bahru is a city just next to Singapore on the Southern tip of Peninsular Malaysia. The thought of paying lower rates, more space and cheap goods make people relocate to Johor Bahru.
Many Singaporeans move into Johor Bahru to do shopping, eat and play golf over the weekends. There was a large number of Singaporeans who decided to move from Singapore to Johor Bahru. The main reason for relocating to JB is money issues. It is considering that a 4-room flat in Singapore will enable the expatriate to sustain his/her living expenses in Johor Bahru.
JB commonly known to locals as Islander Malaysia has a population of 1.7 million people with tourism being one of the most significant factors that contribute to the town's economic growth. The city is easily reached from Singapore through the Causeway link and various bridges, receiving over 49.9% 0f the country's nearly 22.5 million foreign tourists.
Does the move from Singapore to Johor Bahru mean savings and a better lifestyle? For those expatriates who want to relocate, the answer to the resounding question is yes! A family of two or three people can save on a monthly basis on basics like grocery, utilities and petrol. In addition to that, the lifestyle of expats changes for the better.
Kids have the opportunity of attending elite schools like Marlborough College Malaysia, a place they can enjoy extensive sporty programs that the school provides. Besides, children will have the freedom of coming home, drop their bags and grab their bikes to visit friends in the beautiful town. Unlike Singapore, Malaysia is more relaxed and less humid, and in most cases, you will benefit from the breeze blowing through your home and garden.
Instead of commuting every day to work from JB to Singapore, you should consider driving instead of taking a bus or riding a motorbike. If you choose to commute, it will take you approximately 1 to 1.5 hours in the morning, 1.5 to 2.5 hours during the evenings and door to door.
The process of relocating to a new country for a new job, business and holiday can be tedious, and JB is not exempted from this. Expatriates move with most of their belongings; furniture, clothes and household goods from Singapore to JB and relocating services offered by Astro movers will be helpful.
When compared to neighbors Singapore and Karta, Kuala Lumpur is the best place you can relocate and live comfortably. It is the largest city in Malaysia and a great business and travel hub in Southeast Asia. The town is filled with many shopping malls, restaurants, and world-class airports. Apart from that, Kuala Lumpur is one of the cities in Asia that is always connected to its culture.
What does Kuala Lumpur mean? The unique name is derived from tin mining activities done in the town during the 1800s. The name factually means "muddy estuary." The city boasts of significant infrastructure and architecture consisting of world-class highways, the modest subway system, and the tallest skyscrapers in the whole world.
Compared to other cities in Malaysia, the cost of living in Kuala Lumpur is generally expensive. However, since the city offers all services needed by a modern man, the price is understandable and reasonable. It is ranked among the most expensive cities to live in Malaysia, but unlike Asian cities like Hong Kong, Karta and countries such as Singapore, KL is the cheapest city to live in Asia.
What makes Kuala Lumpur unique and convenient? It has a modern transit system with numerous trains and buses connecting all points of the city. Although the town is often prone to traffic during peak hours, you can always opt for public transport to avoid getting late to work. The city has become a famous shopping destination with well-constructed boutiques and shopping centers transforming the experience shopping enthusiasts. Besides, if you have children, you will not fail to notice the numerous top-notch international schools within the city.
Furthermore, the city is also a major hub for those people who wish to have a great weekend experience away from the hurdles of work and noisy surroundings of the town. There are popular holiday destinations around the city such as the seaside town of Malaka and the Cameron Highlands that will offer all the exciting and thrilling experiences that kids will also love. If you wish to have a different taste of the outside country, you can have a quick and cheap and quick flight to Singapore, Bangkok, and Bali.
Kuala Lumpur city is taking the international scene and is the best destination for those people who desire to experience adventure and all the beautiful the town offers. The city is accessible from any part of the world because it is situated along major international routes.
When relocating to Kuala Lumpur for either business or a new job, you need the services of a moving company to make the process even more accessible. We at Astro movers can offer you the best relocating services at a pocket-friendly price. Don't hesitate to contact us through the hotline +6567912488 for more inquiries.
Moving To Malaysia
Are you are planning to relocate to Malaysia? It is a popular destination for expatriates and a brilliant country to live in. To make the most of your expat experience, take time to be well-prepared before heading off to Malaysia. Astro movers will ensure your relocating expertise is worth-fulfilling.
Malaysia is a traditional nation that depends on resource exports and currently striving to expand its economy in sectors such as tourism, science, medical tourism and even commerce which will increase expat employment opportunities.
Malaysia, a Southeast Asian nation has a long history of both immigration and colonization with a mix of cultures and nationalists; the country offers expatriates a lifestyle full of first-class comforts and conveniences. Besides, it has many natural and accessible jungles and island getaways that provide a great sense of adventure.
Kuala Lumpur, the capital city of Malaysia and it is a cultural, economic and financial center of the nation. It is also a major hub for air travel. The town had many skyscrapers, beautiful Dutch architecture and packed with luxurious restaurants, shopping malls, and colorful markets. It is the most convenient place to live for those expatriates who love shopping.
If you are planning to travel within Malaysia, you will not spend much, and it is generally cheap and easy, especially within Peninsula Malaysia. The country has a broad road and rail network making it compelling to travel from one city to the other. Regarding health care, the nation has an affordable public healthcare system with various world-class private facilities available.
Furthermore, the presence of international schools in Kuala Lumpur will offer high quality education for your kids unlike in Singapore and other surrounding cities. Another primary advantage to the expat lifestyle in the country is the cuisine that reflects the various ethnic groups present in Malaysia. The main influences come from the Chinese and Indian immigrants.
Malaysia has two regions that are separated by the South China Sea: East Malaysia and Peninsular Malaysia, but its landscape and climate are relatively similar in all areas. The nation has an equatorial climate with the Southeast monsoon experienced from April to October and the Northeast monsoon from October to February. Both parts of the country have similar geographical characteristics that consist of mountains and coastal plains rising to hills.
If you need moving services to Malaysia, there are a number of required documents you should plan to have including:
- Passport
- Work Permit
- Visa (for both employment and residence in Malaysia)
- Letter from your employer in Malaysia stating the specific reason for import, job function and approximate length of stay
- Letter of Authorization to Destination Agent, signed by customer, for your shipment to be cleared
There is a lot to think about as you plan an overseas move to Malaysia or some other destination worldwide. Astro movers will ensure your moving experience is worth-filling. With 20 years of experience moving expatriates to Malaysia, you are guaranteed of top quality services.

Cypermethrin is a synthetic pyrethroid used as an insecticide in large-scale commercial agricultural applications as well as in consumer products for domestic purposes. It behaves as a fast-acting neurotoxin in insects. It is easily degraded on soil and plants but can be effective for weeks when applied to indoor inert surfaces. Exposure to sunlight, water and oxygen will accelerate its decomposition. Cypermethrin is highly toxic to fish, bees and aquatic insects, according to the National Pesticides Telecommunications Network (NPTN). It is found in many household ant and cockroach killers, including Raid and ant chalk.
Human exposure
Excessive exposure can cause nausea, headache, muscle weakness, salivation, shortness of breath and seizures. In humans, cypermethrin is deactivated by enzymatic hydrolysis to several carboxylic acid metabolites, which are eliminated in the urine. Worker exposure to the chemical can be monitored by measurement of the urinary metabolites, while severe overdosage may be confirmed by quantitation of cypermethrin in blood or plasma.
Study in animals
A recent study at Xuzhou Medical College in China showed that, in male rats, cypermethrin can exhibit a toxic effect on the reproductive system. After 15 days of continual dosing, both androgen receptor levels and serum testosterone levels were significantly reduced. These data suggested that cypermethrin can induce impairments of the structure of seminiferous tubules and spermatogenesis in male rats at high doses.
Long-term exposure to cypermethrin during adulthood is found to induce dopaminergic neurodegeneration in rats, and postnatal exposure enhances the susceptibility of animals to dopaminergic neurodegeneration if rechallenged during adulthood.
If exposed to cypermethrin during pregnancy, rats give birth to offspring with developmental delays. In male rats exposed to cypermethrin, the proportion of abnormal sperm increases. It causes genetic damage: chromosomal abnormalities increased in bone marrow and spleen cells when mice were exposed to cypermethrin.[4] Cypermethrin is classified as a possible human carcinogen, because it causes an increase in the frequency of lung tumors in female mice. Cypermethrin has been linked to an increase in bone marrow micronuclei in both mice and humans.
One study showed that cypermethrin inhibits "gap junctional intercellular communication", which plays an important role in cell growth and is inhibited by carcinogenic agents.[6] Studies have shown that residue from cypermethrin can last for 84 days in the air, on walls, the floor and on furniture.
Environmental effects
Cypermethrin is a broad-spectrum insecticide, which means it kills beneficial insects and animals as well as the targeted insects.Fish are particularly susceptible to cypermethrin.
Resistance to cypermethrin has developed quickly in insects exposed frequently and can render it ineffective.

Which Beatles album is actually their last?
- Bring on the Lucie by Hallelujah the Hills - October 9, 2015
- Experiment: Two Words - July 27, 2013
- POV - July 19, 2013
Rob Sheffield in Rolling Stone:
So let's argue: Which album truly counts as the grand finale?
The case for Let It Be: It came out in 1970, which was after 1969. The case for Abbey Road: (1) virtually all of Let It Be was in the can before the Abbey Road sessions even began; (2) Abbey Road feels more like a classic Beatles record; (3) "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" was the last time all four played in the studio together; (4) the last song on Abbey Road is called "The End"; (5) except for "Her Majesty"; (6) rebounding from the Let It Be debacle was the main reason the lads summoned up that team spirit for Abbey Road; (7) "Her Majesty" is awesome; (8) in the end the love you take is equal to the love; (9) you make.
What do you think?

The only real argument for Let It Be as the "last" album is that "I Me Mine" was recorded after Abbey Road–it was, if I recall correctly, the last "Beatles" recording session, albeit one missing John Lennon.
It's a pretty weak argument. Abbey Road is the last Beatles album.
"Abbey Road," no question. Yes, "Let it Be" was chronologically last, but it was finished earlier (to the degree it can be said to be "finished" at all), and the band didn't think of it as their last album. On "Abbey Road" they knew it was the last go-round.
Anyone want to take up the cudgels for "Let It Be"?
Anyone want to take up the cudgels for "Let It Be"?
No. I've always seen Abbey Road as the last Beatles album. I've always seen Let It Be as sort of an official bootleg album, if that makes sense.
– hologram sam
Abbey Road has a sense of closure and reflection. Once I knew that it was the last thing they did together, I couldn't un-know it, so I will always hear it that way.
Even I can't make the case for Let it Be. Abbey Road was their final creative output, plain and simple, and it in itself drew FROM the Let it Be sessions, not the other way around (while Let it Be was in some ways an outgrowth of the White Album).
If Let it Be is their "last" album, then really we should say their last album was Anthology 3 — their last release of previously unreleased songs.
Or, going by the "I Me Mine" rule (which was the only thing I had in favor for LIB being last, too), then really it's Anthology 2, since it had a new recording in "Real Love."
'Let It Be' is the final slanging match before the divorce, 'Abbey Road' is them accepting the divorce and making a tidy ending of it, for the kid's sake, for everyone's sake…
The whole 'Get Back' project was meant to be a fresh start but ended up the complete opposite. Certainly they knew what they were doing when they repackaged it 'Let It Be', that it was some sort of ending.
Even I can't make the case for Let it Be. Abbey Road was their final creative output, plain and simple, and it in itself drew FROM the Let it Be sessions, not the other way around (while Let it Be was in some ways an outgrowth of the White Album).
THIS, especially the last sentence. The reason I find Let It Be unlistenable–I mean, psychologically painful–is how it is a continuation of the White sessions disharmony without any of White's moments of incredible brilliance. And the reason I can listen to Abbey Road (though I don't listen to it often) is that it's a return to White's songwriting and production excellence, and commitment to group harmony (as difficult as it was to maintain). Abbey Road is The Beatles half-healed, halfway to the new working methods they needed, halfway to what they would've been (and should've been) in the Seventies.
The difficulties in The Beatles were like a fever that hit after India, intensified through the White sessions, burned hottest during those first Twickenham sessions, then gradually but steadily cooled. McCartney's idea to tour/perform live was a bad idea, because it was an attempt to weld the four of them back together via compression and heat. But heat was exactly what they didn't need; what they needed was for all four of them to do what George did in '69, cool it. But you can understand why Paul suggested what he did, because it had always worked before.
If a "cool" solution had been applied post-White, Lennon's departure would've been temporary–1972? And even with the trauma of Let It Be, it wouldn't have stuck but for the legal/financial problems caused by Klein, and the need for McCartney to sue to protect himself, and The Beatles' catalog.
"I Me Mine" was recorded after Abbey Road–it was, if I recall correctly, the last "Beatles" recording session, albeit one missing John Lennon.
I didn't know that! How interesting.
Yeah, Abbey Road gets my vote, too. I never got around to commenting in Nancy's "analyzing the medleys" post, much as I wanted to. It's hard for me gather my thoughts on the subject; side two of Abbey Road is what drew me deep into The Beatles and made me the uber-fan that I am today. The way the music cycles between desperate regret and desperate hope is deeply moving to me. I just love it to bits.
And the "slideshow" effect of "Carry That Weight/The End", where we see snapshots of each Beatle individually, is a lovely way to say goodnight. Goodnight, but not goodbye: "You gonna be in my dreams, tonight."
I completely agree about Abbey Road, but LIB certainly has a doomy air about it- the black cover with the individual portraits, grainy back cover photos, etc. If Abbey Road is the self-consciously positive yin of the breakup, then LIB is the yang. Out of control, half finished and wrung through the mill by Mr. Spector. i do love it for some reason. Especially my gnarled Apple vinyl copy.
Well said, King Kevin — I've never thought of it that way before, but this will be my new answer. The two are inseparable, yin and yang.
Oddly, I find AR to be the uglier album, thanks to some tracks I've always found hard on the ears ("Come Together," "I Want You," "Because"); and—contrary to MG—LIB has always felt expansive & even hopeful to me ("I Me Mine" aside)…
Wow, @Ed–does that go for the Nagra reels and stuff, or just the Spector? What do you think of "Let It Be–Naked"?
Just the Spector!
Sure–actually I can see that, that makes a kind of sense.
So much of my negative feelings about LIB and sessions come from serial disappointment over things like Sweet Apple Trax as a kid. I suspect if I'd only had the Spector LIB to listen to, I'd feel differently.
Abbey Road is The Beatles half-healed, halfway to the new working methods they needed, halfway to what they would've been (and should've been) in the Seventies.
@Michael Gerber – I agree about the sound of Abbey Road. So what do you think happened to disrupt the half-healing? Do you think it was another disruptive event after Abbey Road?

Payment Gateway: Online Transactions SimplifiedNovember 30th, 2015 by Admin Backup1 Comments
In today's technology-driven world, online transactions have become a common phenomenon.
Each second, numerous payments are being made online all over the world. The payments are
made through various methods, such as, PayPal and EFT exchanges, but, the major transaction of
the payment depends on the payment gateway technology. A payment gateway permits an
association between a website and a bank, implying that payments can be made specifically on a
website, which will be deposited straight into a bank account. A payment gateway is a server that
is committed to linking websites and banks so that online credit card exchanges can be
completed in real-time.
How does a payment gateway work?
Payment gateways work by being the safe and important connection between a website (web
server) and the bank. At the point when the subtle elements of the credit card are submitted on a
website, the payment gateway gets these points of interest and sends them to the bank for
verification. The bank then reacts to this either by acknowledging it or declining it. The payment
gateway then conveys the reaction of the bank to the web server and the proper message is
shown to the client – for example 'Your payment has been successful'.
What is required for a payment gateway?
A payment gateway is extremely essential if you look at the problems faced while dealing with
credit cards on a website. There are three primary prerequisites for a payment gateway to work:
1. A website that meets the security and eligibility prerequisites for the bank to issue a
merchant account.
2. A merchant account from a bank. A merchant account is an uncommon sort of bank
account that can be connected specifically to a payment gateway. These bank accounts are issued
with endless supply of a website to guarantee that it meets the protection and security
prerequisites. The requirements for this account are an SSL endorsement and a security strategy.
3. A payment gateway supplier. Payment gateway providers offer the server which serves as
the connection between the website and the bank. The server has an exceptional arrangement and
a good state of security because of the crucial way in which the information is transferred.
Once each of the three prerequisites are met, the payment gateway should then be connected to
the website and to the merchant account. The real-time credit card processing will then take
What are the benefits?
By connecting a payment gateway with your e-trade website, you can guarantee you are giving
the least demanding and most streamlined purchasing background for your customers.
A payment gateway is gainful for a few reasons:
The customers visiting the website will remain focused. Various websites make use of outsider
or hosted payment processing offices, for example, PayPal. These technologies do function
effectively and prove to be good payment alternatives, but, they do have certain drawbacks. One
of the most important benefits of a payment gateway is that customers won't leave your website
to make payment. All client data and credit card points of interest are filled on your website,
which means, fewer strides for the purchaser. Further to this, re-guiding clients to a different
website for payment frequently prompts doubt and payment abandonments.Share it

Sorry. Video is not available for this recipe.
This recipe pre-dates my 5 Ingredients philosophy.
Warm Fig, Prosciutto & Buffalo Mozzerella Salad
From Stonesoup
This salad started out life as Jamie Oliver's sexy fig salad which is still a favourite of mine as a starter but I like to think that my warm salad gives Jamie a run for his money. Especially when the evenings are getting cooler and you're more in the mood for a quick main course salad.
Buffalo mozerella can be a bit tricky to source so If you aren't able to get hold of any or it's not quite in your price range you could substitute in some bocconcini. It won't have quite the same lovely milky melt-in-the-mouth texture but it will be a hundred times better than rubbery old supermarket mozerella. Of course you could always try another angle with some fresh ricotta or even goats cheese.
If you don't have a BBQ or feel a bit weird about BBQing lettuce – which I do understand – you could either leave the radicchio as is for a lighter feel or ditch the radicchio altogether and go for a couple of handfuls of basil or flat leaf parsley leaves.
A final option, if you or your guests are more of the vegetarian persuasion you could leave out the prosciutto (although if it were up to me I would be tempted to have a go at trying to convert them) and substitute in some roasted walnut halves or pinenuts.
Serves 4
a hunk of sourdough or other rustic bread (approx 120g or 4oz)
1 head radicchio, leaves washed and separated
2T aged balsamic vinegar
1 clove garlic, peeled and smashed
6T extra virgin olive oil
1 small sprig rosemary, leaves picked and finely chopped
6 fresh black figs, halved lengthwise
200g (7oz) buffalo mozerella, bocconcini or ricotta, torn into chunks
4 – 6 slices prosciutto, torn into bight sized pieces
1. Preheat your BBQ or a char grill pan.
2. Tear bread into bight sized chunks (stale bread is fine) and lightly toast under the grill or broiler to warm and freshen it up a little but not to make it golden or crispy.
3. Whisk together balsamic, garlic, oil and rosemary in the base of a large bowl and season well. Take out 2T of the dressing and reserve for serving. Wash radicchio leaves but don't worry about drying too much. Cook leaves on the BBQ for a minute or so until the leaves have started to wilt and char around the edges. Toss the wilted leaves through the dressing with the bread and allow to stand for at least 10minutes.
4. To serve, fish the garlic out of the salad and place the leaves and bread on a platter or divide between individual plates. Artfully arrange the figs,cheese and prosciutto over the top. Drizzle each fig cut side with a little of the reserved dressing. Serve straight up.

Dear 100 Hour Board,
What's the best candy distributed by Hershey?
Dear cat,
Almond Joys or York peppermint patties.
However, you should know that there's a world of better candy (especially chocolate bars) up north, and Hershey's has nothing on anything manufactured in Canada. They don't mix wax into their chocolate so it actually has flavor and doesn't leave a gross feeling in your mouth. You should try Crunchies, Wunderbar, Smarties... and Mr. Big... and I could keep going but the point is that Hershey's is sub-par.
Dear nyan,
Okay so my placeholder for this question was very harsh because I misread the question. I thought it said "Why is the best candy distributed by Hershey's?" and I was quite shocked. I know you didn't read it (unless you're a writer or alumnus), but I'm still a little bit sorry for that.
Anyway yeah Reese's is pretty much the only Hershey's brand that is really good, but not including Reese's Pieces or anything that has them in it. Hershey's Special Dark isn't nearly as bad as their milk chocolate either. Most of the other typical American candies that I really enjoy are Mars or Nestle.
-The Entomophagist
Dear person,
Reeses are good. I also don't hate the cookies and cream bar.
Dear meow,
Pay no attention to these candy snobs above me and go buy yourself a Take 5. Milk chocolate, peanuts, caramel, peanut butter, and pretzels. Perfection.
The Man with a Mustache
Dear Symphony Milk Chocolate with Almonds and Toffee Bars,
I'm with The Man with a Mustache.
Fellow writers: there is a time and place for choco-snobbery, but whom among us would not eat a Hershey's item when encountered in a dark alley?
If we seek esoteric, rich chocolates, let us seek them well: Callebaut's exclusive ruby chocolate, Chocolate Naive's Dark Chocolate with Porcini Mushrooms, single-origin 85% cacao bars from Nacional cultivar cacao by a Kichwa cooperative in the Ecuadorian Amazon, entirely new chocolates made with cupuaçu (Theobroma grandiflorum)--a sister species--instead of the familiar Theobroma cacao.
If we seek chocolate, seek these, and be happy.
But don't you shame my Hershey's. I heard you say "candy," and therein there lies latitude for more accessible, attainable and affordable pleasure.
There for me when I want it and need it, and often encountered on steep post-holiday discounts, Hershey's fills an unassuming, comforting role, one where I don't always have to consider my candy carefully as I consume it.
To my compatriots, I suggest you take five and reconsider your opinions.
As for TMwaM, El-Ahrairah, and I, we'll just Take 5.
--Ardilla Feroz
Dear cat,
I respected The Man with a Mustache and Ardilla Feroz, but never so much as when they defended the honour of the Take 5 bar. It is missing from far too many stores.
Dear meow ~
The one that was made in Europe instead of the US.
Let's take wax out of chocolate!
~Dragon Lady
Dear friend,
I was going to concede that European Kit-Kats are pretty decent, but apparently those aren't even Hershey's. Everywhere else except the U.S., Kit-Kats are made by Nestlé and that's why they taste so much better! Which does go to show how much Hershey's is missing the mark.
Why is our country the only one deprived of delicious tasting Kit-Kats? Why do I have to travel all the way to World Market just to get some Kit-Kats made with decent chocolate? It's not fair.
-Van "Kit-Kat Snob" Goff
Dear you,
Before I even read Van Goff's answer, I too was going to go off on Kit-Kats and how they're better in other countries. Particularly Melon Mascarpone cheese Kit-Kats are wondrously scrumptious. By the way, did you know Japan has over 200 different kinds of Kit-Kats (including, of course the aforementioned melon-mascarpone ones)? 'Tis a truly magical place.

Meet the Docs Who Charge Medicare Top Dollar for Visits
Medicare paid for more than 200 million office visits for established patients in 2012. Overall, health professionals classified only four percent as complex enough to command the most expensive rates. But 1,800 providers billed at the top level at least 90 percent of the time. Experts question whether the charges are legitimate.

Mynna is a girl in the middle of her teenage turns, perhaps sixteen or seventeen. She stands about five and a half feet tall, with a thin frame and muscles toned from daily manual labor. Her skin is naturally light, but has a slight tan from time spent out in the sun. Her hair is a light blonde color, flowing straight just past her shoulders, and her eyes are a honeyed brown. Her face is round, with a tiny nose, large eyes, and a wide smile. While still very young looking, she has the figure of a fully mature woman. She moves with a great natural energy, a smile almost always on her lips.
Mynna is dressed very simply, wearing a utilitarian outfit for labor in hot weather. She wears a dark grey tank top, cut just above her navel, and a pair of light brown shorts that end at her thighs. A brown leather pouch hangs from her hip, carrying whatever she might need on hand. Her feet are protected by a simple pair of brown shoes with no socks.
Mynna was born the daughter of a stablegirl at Western Weyr. Her mother's mother was a stablegirl at Western Weyr, as was her mother, and so on and so forth back as far as anyone cares to remember. So it was little surprise that as she grew older, Mynna herself ended up caring for the Weyr's runners and following in her family's footsteps. Still, throughout childhood Mynna has always had bigger dreams, concocting elaborate plots to flee the weyr and start a new life of fame, fortune, and adventure. Given her lack of skills which would help her appeal to any craft, it is little wonder that she has yet to make any of these dreams into reality.
Green Image
This little lady is a haphazard conglomeration of olivine and avacado patches, which seem to encompass her whole body. Here and there, hints of a brighter jade undertone peek through, like moonlight through a forest canopy. Pale golden-green rims one faceted eye, a thin line dripping down her muzzle like a tear shed for all that might have been. Washed-out pea green rings her snout, with an incongruous little spot of pine right at the tip. Her mottled coloration is otherwise echoed over her whole body, with her wingsails picking up the washed-out pea green around her snout. Her little ebony talons glitter brightly, lending the appearance of a woman at least trying to look presentable. Despite her motley appearance, there is something very sweet about her, in the way she does her best to hold herself with some measure of pride.
Well Begun is Half Done Green Ingriath
Glorious fits as vibrant grass green is the starting color on this brightly colored and very large girl. It starts between head knobs and runs down her over long spine of rippling ridges till it ends upon her tail spade. There it reaches down over broad shoulders, barrel and hips in spikes that bleed into a bright lime. Bright lime fades into lemon grass and progressively lighter to her underside where her belly is bright enough that it is almost yellow. Her wings are much the same, the grass green spreading over her overlarge spars and fading out into the bright lemon grass of her sails. Her limbs are predominantly the same lemony green of her sails at the feet, darkening as they go up till they meet with the darker pattern. Apart from her neck looking over long, which heightens the effect of her size, she's well proportioned and rather lovely to look at.

If the S & P breaks 2532, what then?ReplyDelete
If this completes as your analysis is showing, then we begin wave 5?ReplyDelete
So I gather from your analysis that building a long position over the next 1-5 days is a reasonable trade to make now.ReplyDeleteReplies
Everyone has different trading style and risk perception.Delete
Personally I am a buyer because I think the indexes are days away from a bottom.
On the other side I think there will be one more higher low for an entry. So if some one wants a confirmation and low risk should wait.
Whats your s and p target for april mayDelete
Something around 2800 and if I am wrong new ATH.Delete
I agree and thanksReplyDelete

C or iii ....waiting to see what happens if we rally to 2608/9 or if support holds at 2585/6 . Would've hoped tech would be leading , but not so far.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousApr 4, 2018, 10:44:00 AM
Looking like new lows . If futures stay hard down , we'll leave a huge gap & those tend to fill pretty quickly . Could be a big drawdown first though- have to manage the risk of seeing another 50-100 handles lower over the next few days before a reversal.ReplyDeleteReplies
A lot of overlapping it should be ED which means not much lower than the last low. When I measured the waves one of the targets for the end of the move was 2542 and it looks very good for a low of an ED pattern. It will be interesting wat happens around this level.Delete

Krasi, rather than your green 4 , is it possible that was a , we had an expanded b wave to the 2553 low on monday and are now in c of 4 ?ReplyDelete
I'm trying to figure out how we rally here , but still have a more normal end to B down, as today just doesn't feel or look like a bottom.
If so, I'd guess the C wave up could have us near 2700 next week .
Not very likely, this will be very strange pattern.Delete
A lot of overlapping I suppose ED. Yes, it does not feel like a bottom.
I hope to see one final flush lower, it will look very good - finished pattern, everybody shitting their pants and giving up:)
Come on bears where are you? Smack the market lower:)

Hard to know , but this rally today with tech leading might have legs if the gap fill doesn't resist.ReplyDelete

So this is the bottom or another wave down? Thanks.ReplyDeleteReplies
Isn't that the million dollar question that we try to find the answer for from Sir Krasi? :-)Delete
It looks the bottom to me.Delete

Thanks. I know its engulfing, but another concern is its volume is still low...Delete
I do not use volume. I do not think it matters much.Delete
Is there a level you add to position or max it out? ;) just trying to figure out if you a) ride momentum from here or b) continue to buy weakness at this stage. thanks in advanceReplyDeleteReplies
I trade usually the pattern not levels. The pattern was looking mature and days away to be finished. This was confirmed from indicators,market breadth and cycles so I was buying every sell off since last week... although I knew the low will be most likely this week:)Delete
Short term cycles say 2-3 weeks higher. Intermediate term cycles says 40 week cycle low so 2 months higher will not be a surprise.
So I will buy every corrective move lower in the next 2 weeks and the end of April the next short term cycle high I will see how the pattern looks like. If it is not so strong I will take profits. If it is strong just 20%-30% to secure some profits.
Thank you Krasi for teaching a man how to fish! :)Delete
Hi Krasi, I think the low is in and an intermediate term rally should happen now for 1-2 weeks? What do you think?ReplyDelete
- AnonymousApr 5, 2018, 9:41:00 AM
Hi Krasi!ReplyDelete
Your comments yesterday morning made me smile, because you put words on my thoughts, a last puke would have been the cherry on the cake :-) but it's not as markets behave, always trying to inflict pain. Anyway, glad you're long, so am I and i hope most people here!
Now, do you have by any chance any short term level, or is it still the case that we need to see more to know the pattern emerging in the next month. We've got daily MA50 at 2717, a level to enter a little short term downside punt? I guess today is really important, if the market does hold yesterday's gains, we might have that last lower low for ED. Otherwise medium term target of 2830s or new ATH by may?
Thx and good luck!!
At the moment an impulse is not well visible. If it is an impulse I expect it to make a high around MA200 hourly and MA50 daily around the 2700 area +-10 points.Delete
Intermediate term I expect around 2800-2820 end of April. I have the suspicion that this is not waves IV/V, but I will think about that in a few weeks. First to see how April develops then we should know if the top is in or to expect new ATH.

Also, a move to around 2694 would still allow for an expanded flat, which would revisit the low seen monday, don't you think?ReplyDelete
Willem from prognosis might update his promisinng turn days calender tool too :-) expanded flat fits quite well with his predictions.

Thanks Krasi for the update. What's the likelihood that we are seeing the 1 of C from the recnt decline ie the ongoing rebound is 2 of C and that spx would not hit 2800 level. ThanksReplyDeleteReplies
If this plays out this will be ii of 3 and not C any more.Delete
- AnonymousApr 5, 2018, 3:51:00 PM
Any reasons why this scenario is less likely to happen as compared to your base case? ThanksDelete
Because cycles, the indicators and market breadth point rather to intermediate term low than a pause and continuation lower.Delete

Index futures sharply goes down after the market was closed. What does that mean? Thanks.ReplyDelete
I'm sure you all saw the news...this was the next BIG risk, it's a huge threat to everything, and IF the market can brush this off and trade higher tomorrow, we're all cleared for takeoff: https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-04-05/futures-tumble-after-trump-orders-ustr-consider-another-100-billion-china-tariffsReplyDeleteReplies
Yesterday I was to lazy to post a chart:) it looks like 1-2-3 higher is running and wave 4 is expected. Currently the markets are where the low of w4 should be. If we see the markets recover we have a confirmation for an impulse. If not we will look for another pattern.Delete
I hope you're right :) i think futures traders are probably too scared to sell the market too hard at the moment until cash markets open tomorrow because of how badly they got hurt jumping the gun on Wednesday...so tomorrow AM will be key, and we also have jobs #s to consider, but normally trades up on that data no matter whatReplyDelete
- AnonymousApr 6, 2018, 9:09:00 AM
Morning Krasi!ReplyDelete
Thx for your answers :-)
Is the market holds, what is the target for w5? Is that the waves of ii of 3? A chart would have been paradise, but will gladly wait for tomorrow's update :-) good luck and thx for your work!
Tech sector looks weak and the FANG stocks I would say one more low for finished pattern will look better.ReplyDelete
Interesting.... one more low for the FANG/NDX? For the major Indexes too or just deep retracement?
- AnonymousApr 6, 2018, 1:35:00 PM
Real news today will be the payrolls . A strong number there that follows the ADP could see a double whammy . Would still prefer to see a test of the lows , but the pattern is beyond me .I'll leave that to you Krasi!ReplyDeleteReplies
I am just guessing too:) but I think I know we are close to intermediate term low.Delete
I expect the low to be tested too, looking at the weekly histogram I do not think we will see a rocket launch.
And today I was digging deeper the tech sector(single shares) because it was lagging seriously yesterday a red flag.... to be honest for the FANG stocks we should see a lower low for a finished pattern. This means NDX should make one more lower low and SP500/DJ??? Today will be important day to confirm or negate reversal.
- AnonymousApr 6, 2018, 2:43:00 PM
Payrolls weak but revisions strong . More whipsaw...ReplyDelete
As you say , tech is the tell..

How did we start?
Our Story & Vision
Paul Odom established Fonté Coffee Roaster in 1992, with the intention to offer quality dark roast to Seattle. Fonté's Master Roaster, Steve Smith, joined Paul to bring many years of coffee roasting experience to Fonté. Steve's wealth of coffee knowledge and Paul's drive to create a successful business were the recipe for success. Today Fonté roasts daily at their headquarters located in Georgetown. Fonté also has a joint venture with a hospitality management company in Dublin, Ireland which supplies Ireland and the EU with Fonté coffee and equipment services. Fonté offers wholesale coffee for high-end hospitality, including hotels, restaurants and independent coffee bars as well as online at fontecoffee.com. Additionally, there are two Fonté Cafe bars, located in downtown Seattle and Bellevue, Washington. Fonté Cafe & Wine Bar became the first bar to become LEED's certified in Seattle back in 2010.
"Fonté is known for the roast to order format originally developed to support wholesale clients so they could better compete against the chain coffee bar operators. To this day we still follow this format. Our hospitality clients get the same quality as our own coffee bars and online customers. If you order from Fonté before 6:00 am, we roast your order and ship your coffee that afternoon. This sort of standard is unheard of in a roasting facility producing over a million pounds of coffee annually. We're always pushing. When we opened in 2010, Fonté was the first independent coffee bar to open a full scratch kitchen and wine bar, which is located adjacent to the Seattle Four Seasons."- Paul Odom

High-Functioning Autism Treatments: An Overview
Defining High Functioning Autism
Autism is a neurological condition that interferes with a person's ability to communicate and interact socially with others. High-functioning autism is an informal term that attempts to categorize how impacted by the disorder an individual is.
Listed are some of the characteristics used to distinguish high-functioning autism from Asperger's, low functioning autism, PDD-NOS, and other developmental disorders.
Characteristics of High-Functioning Autism
- IQ of 80 or above
- ability to read, write, and speak
- may appear to lack empathy
- monotone speech or lack of appropriate intonation, expression
- lack of eye contact
- likes or demands routine or sameness
- limited or obsessive interest in a particular topic or subject
- may be clumsy or seem uncoordinated
Although individuals with high-functioning autism experience severe difficulty with social interaction and communication, with specialized treatment or therapy they can learn many skills in these areas to help them succeed in society.
Here, you will learn about some of the most effective high functioning autism treatments.
Treatments for High-Functioning Autism
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) has been deemed by many autism experts as the most effective high-functioning autism treatment. Applied behavior analysis is a scientific approach to examining behavior and what in the environment affects it (negatively or positively). One principle of ABA is using positive reinforcement to reward appropriate behavior. For example, during speech therapy a child may be asked to repeat a sound or word. When successful, they are given a reinforcer. The belief is as appropriate behavior is rewarded, the child will learn to repeat the desired behavior. As a consequence there should also be a decrease in negative or inappropriate behaviors as well. This method has been well researched and documented and has proved to be extremely effective for many individuals with autism.
TEACCH is the acronym for Treatment and Education of Autistic and related Communication Handicapped Children. This method is a highly structured program to teach communication skills to people with learning disabilities including all levels and ages on the autism spectrum. TEACCH methodology is structured around the belief that people with autism are predominantly visual learners. Their environment should be organized so work, school, tasks, and schedules are filled with visual cues and aids. TEACCH advocates believe that many of the negative autistic behaviors are the result of individuals not knowing what to do in an unfamiliar situation. Therefore, each individual is given a personalized program which is geared to address what is appropriate in certain situations, while acknowledging his or her strengths and weaknesses. Begun at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, TEACCH has become internationally recognized as an effective, evidence-based intervention program that recognizes the "culture of autism." Instead of seeking to cure the disorder, TEACCH instructors work with those affected by autism and other disabilities so they can learn to lead full, meaningful lives.
Speech and Language Therapy is also a successful tool for helping high-functioning autism individuals. Although they are able to speak, read, and write, individuals with high-functioning autism need assistance in learning how to use and interpret facial expressions, intonation, humor, and other nuances of language.
Physical and Occupational Therapy can help develop the fine and gross motor skills lacking in many individuals with high-functioning autism. Since many with high-functioning autism have poor gross motor skills and difficulty with balance or coordination, physical and occupational therapies are effective means to help them improve these skills through play, exercise, and other activities.
Alternative Treatments
There are a few other effective high-functioning autism treatments. Those treatments are generally reserved for autistic individuals who also have other, co-existing conditions or illnesses.
They are:
- chiropractic massage
- gluten-free and/or casein-free diets
- medications for anxiety or depression such as Zoloft and Prozac
Medications are usually prescribed to treat some behaviors (i.e. hyperactivity) that result from another condition but not the autism itself.
High-functioning autism, like all forms of autism spectrum disorder, is not curable. However, it is treatable. The best treatments come in the form of specialized therapy that seeks to promote appropriate social and communication behaviors.

The College of the Canyons swim program made its annual trip north to compete at the Cuesta College Invitational held March 10-11, returning from San Luis Obispo with three first place finishes and three new school records.
COC freshman Jessie Kim continued his strong start to the season with a pair of first place finishes in the 100-yard backstroke (54.31) and the 100-yard individual medley (55.17).
His time in the individual medley established a new school record, as did his second place pace of 24.03 in the 50-yard butterfly.
Fellow freshman Tyler Tran finished second in the 100-yard individual medley right behind Kim at 55.84.
Later, the 400-yard medley relay team of Kim, Tran, William Karren and Jonathan Gragas placed third at a time of 3:49.25.
COC freshman Jennifer Yamauchi won the 50-yard backstroke with her pace of 29.95.
Yamauchi also put her name in the COC record books with a new school-best mark of 2:44.70 in the 200-yard breaststroke.
Canyons will continue its conference schedule on Friday, March 17, at Western State Conference meet No. 2 hosted by Los Angeles Valley College. Events begin at 11:30 a.m.

How the Failure to Enforce the Laws and Rules Can Effect Your Health
The situation - where it was recently charged or acknowledged that Federal Aviation Administration staff had prior knowledge of safety related problems at ValuJet before the accident that brought it down - is hardly news to the thousands of Americans who work in local, state and national government jobs across the country.
Everyone who works in government is under pressure to go along to get along and avoid being disciplined for voicing what should be covered under freedom-of-speech laws. Some of this is merely general social group pressure. And some is direct pressure that comes from the veiled or voiced threat to be disciplined for divulging mishandling of various governmental responsibilities, policies, issues or what have you.
I recall once in Palm Beach County, Florida, where as the site planner with the County Planning, Zoning and Building Department, when the word filtered down from the county manager's office that a particular project was to be fast-tracked. The project was only to receive a cursory review and specific aspects of it were excused for specific reasons. As a result, an outdoor "band shell" was built facing a community that has experienced major noise problems since.
And, while with the zoning office of the city of Tampa, I recall a time when staff was ridiculed for suggesting that a planned expansion of a nonconforming jail in a low-to-moderate-income neighborhood required a major general plan amendment and a rezoning hearing as required by the zoning and planning regulations in effect at the time. …
