Guidelines for Consultant Interpreters (Annex 1 to the Professional Standards)
Version adopted in 2012 entering into force at the 2015 Assembly (Addis Abeba).
- Published:
- Last updated:
Consultant Interpreters are frequently contacted well in advance of the meeting and asked for advice and a quote. Thus they are the first impression conference organisers have of the interpreting profession. Consultant Interpreters have the task of ensuring a high-quality service adapted to the client's needs while obtaining optimum working conditions for the interpreters at every conference.
The Consultant Interpreter's duties
Consultant Interpreters are a link - not a screen - between the team of interpreters and the conference organiser. Both the organiser and the interpreters rely on Consultant Interpreters to ensure that the AIIC Code of Professional Ethics is observed.
- Consultant Interpreters must be accessible. Office facilities, such as a separate phone line, fax, computer, secretarial services can be helpful, in order to react quickly and professionally to incoming enquiries.
- As much information as possible about the planned meeting should be obtained from the conference organiser in order to compile an accurate quote. Such information should include: active and passive languages, subject matter, date, venue, timetable, number of delegates, whether interpretation is to be recorded, etc.
- Once a conference organiser has accepted a quote, written confirmation should be obtained. A master contract stipulating terms of cancellation can be signed.
- When recruiting, the Consultant Interpreter shall insure that teams cover all required languages and take account of specialisations where appropriate. Use of relay should be kept to a minimum.
- When contacting interpreters the Consultant Interpreter should make clear whether the offer is firm or is an inquiry about availability, the latter implying no obligation on either side.
- Regular contact with a conference organiser in the period before receiving the signed contracts will instil confidence in the organiser, especially if he/she is working with interpretation for the first time. The Consultant Interpreter can also obtain useful information about the meeting as it becomes available.
- Where possible the Consultant Interpreter should arrange for publication of the names of team members in the programme and/or list of participants.
- The conference organiser must be advised about how important it is for the interpreters to receive agendas, background documents and scripts well before the meeting. Either the Consultant Interpreter or the organiser should arrange to photocopy and distribute documents to the interpreters as soon as they become available. The Consultant Interpreter should also inquire whether a glossary exists and may arrange for a briefing session if the meeting is technical. The Consultant Interpreter should take measures to ensure that the interpreters receive documents as they become available during the meeting, for this purpose the conference organiser should be aware of the necessity of having a photocopier available
- If the Consultant Interpreter is not a member of the team, a Team Leader must be appointed who is fully acquainted with the arrangements and will report back after the meeting.
- The Consultant Interpreter should check how the conference went with the conference organiser and, if appropriate, seek references for members of the team.
- When members of the Association act as Consultant Interpreters they shall be bound by the strictest secrecy, which must be observed towards all persons and with regard to all information disclosed in the course of the practice of the profession to anyone acting as a Consultant Interpreter or anyone working as an interpreter at a gathering not open to the public.
Amendment Procedure
Proposals to revise this Annex shall be decided by the Executive Committee, if necessary after seeking legal advice, by a majority of 2/3 of the votes cast.

The American sculptor John Chamberlain was inspired by Van Gogh's use of colour and expressive brushstrokes. Several of Chamberlain's abstract sculptures were on display at the Van Gogh Museum from 27 September 2018 to 28 January 2019.
At first sight, there appears to be little connecting the work of John Chamberlain (1927-2011) and that of Vincent van Gogh. However, Chamberlain was certainly inspired by Van Gogh, especially by his use of colour and expressive brushstrokes. He even greatly admired Vincent's work: 'I noticed about Van Gogh that his work was perfect' (John Chamberlain, 2007).
Use of colour and choice of material
Colour plays a major role in Chamberlain's abstract sculptures; it is one of the reasons why he enjoyed working with car wrecks. He set to work as a collagist, transforming these wrecks into new figures, twisting and bending the car parts until he was completely satisfied.
Chamberlain used the original colours of the parts, but sometimes painted the surfaces using a spray can or brush. The emphasis on colour in the finished works and the expressive use of materials link Chamberlain's sculptures to Van Gogh's paintings.
In Chamberlain's words: 'It was Van Gogh who got me started in a way, and here I am (…) coming back to visit him with my sculptures' (John Chamberlain, 2007).
Chamberlain at work
Unique titles
John Chamberlain's works often have striking titles, such as Latraviataposexia and Allgirladagio. They are based on the titles of books or operas, on sayings, or are combinations of random words. Chamberlain always chose words that produced harmonious combinations of sounds and letters. The titles of his works are often devoid of meaning.
Van Gogh inspires
Van Gogh inspires, to this very day. His choice of subject, brushstroke and sense of style fire the imagination of many modern and contemporary artists. An alternating presentation of work by one such artist is always on display at the museum, often together with a work by Van Gogh.
Since 2014, presentations have gone on display featuring paintings by Francis Bacon, Edvard Munch, Frank Auerbach, Willem de Kooning, Peter Doig and Zeng Fanzhi, as well as expressionist works from the Merzbacher Collection.
John Chamberlain's sculptures White Thumb Four (1978), Blue Brownie (1979), Allgirladagio (2008), Sobriquetqueen (2008) and Latraviataposexia (2009) were on display at the Van Gogh Museum from 27 September 2018 to 28 January 2019.

Mud and wet scabs can be a real problem for some horses and their owners. The scabs can often be quite painful for horses and can easily spread in saturated turn out, many owners have to make a decision between turn out or keeping their horses legs healthy and scab free. With our Mud starter pack you can do both.
Aromaheel should be applied to any weeping or scabby skin to quickly and painlessly soften and remove any scabs on your horse's legs and heels. The Aromaheel then soothes the sore skin, and the extraordinary natural properties of the essential oils, safely and effectively encourage natural regeneration of healthy tissue, and promote rapid hair regrowth.
Aroma-Mud can be used in conjunction with Aromaheel to stop scabs spreading but can also be used after the skin is clear to prevent any future outbreaks. Aroma-Mud offers additional anti-bacterial protection against bacteria found dwelling in the soil & on the skin's surface – providing added support for the skin against any knocks, cuts and abrasions.
Mud starter pack I thought these products were amazing, the mud rash was gone in a week of using the aroma heel twice a day every day. The Aroma mud was also great as a preventative. Both products smell gorgeous.
I will definitely be buying the itchy horse starter pack for the summer.

Aromaheel This really is great stuff, I've used it on and off for years and find its the only stuff that gets rid of mud fever. I like that you can still turn out whilst using as my tb hates staying in during the day. I highly recommend this product and I personally don't use anything else.
(11/04/2019) Janette - Worcester
Aroma heel ointment This ointment is absolutely fantastic it really does work I have recommended this product to everyone. My horse had mud rash I had tried everything and nothing worked.. my friend from the farm gave me some to try I was sceptical but thought Id give it try ... I saw results in a day .. All mud rash cleared completely within a week .. magic
(24/01/2019) Katie/poncho - Radcliffe
Great product, easy to apply, effective I have used the Aromesse products on my horse several times now as he is highly prone to severe mud rash in his extaordinarily muddy field. Within a couple of days of using, the scabs soften and start to loosen, they gradually work their way out themselves leaving healthier and softer skin underneath. My horse has had no adverse effects from repeated use, it doesn't seem to sting broken skin and helps cracks heal very quickly.
(17/01/2019) - Edinburgh
Extremely pleased Our pony had a problem for the first time this year and i was amazed how quick and effective this product was and the mud fever has not come back since.
(10/04/2018) Kim - Plymouth
aromaheel ointment I used this product successfully on my TB who had dreadful scabs from his coronet to fetlock on his two white legs and small scabs on the others too.
The best thing about he product is that you DON'T HAVE TO WASH THEIR LEGS! which is what most other products rely on (& drying them after- who's got time for that?? ...and it's painful for the horse). Slather it on, breathe in the lovely smell and it will improve within a week!
(12/02/2018) linda phelps - bristol
Best on the market! When I was starting to loose hope on something to get rid of my horses mud fever someone recommend this. It worked within days and has help keep it at bay ever since.
Would highly recommend!!!
(09/01/2018) Aimee - Manchester
These products are a horse owners MUST hAVE!! Winter 2015 my T/Bred suffered from terrible mud rash. A friend recommended Aromaheel. after washing his legs and completely drying them I applied the Aromaheel and did this for seval days, after the 3-4th day the difference was unbelievable the scabs had fallen off, the angriness had disappeared and the fur was growing back.
I now use the Aromaheel barrier daily and no signs of problems this winter. Now I just keep the Aromaheel ointment for any minor scraps etc.
These products are a horse owners MUST hAVE!!
(07/02/2017) Nicola - Cheshire
Best product My mare had a very bad case of greasey heal and was under vetinary help but nothing seemed to work. After over several months of trying everything on the market I cam across this product and within 2 weeks everything was gone and has not returned since. One day I'd like to be able to offer it to more Australians!! Best product!!!
(07/02/2017) Aleisha - Australia
Aromaheel and Aroma-Mud Barrier Fantastic products! My sensitive chestnut Arab with four white socks who is prone to mud problems has not had any outbreaks since using your products. The Aromaheel cleared up his scabs very quickly. Now I use the Aroma-Mud barrier as a preventative with occasional application of Aromaheel.
(03/02/2017) imogen - warwick
A great product I have successfully used Aroma Heel to get rid of mud scabs on a white legged horse! Excellent product. Aroma mud is now making sure it doesn't come back.
(14/01/2017) Olivia Heywood - Wiltshire
Really works We tried everything to shift the mud problems on our horse and then a friend suggested we try the mud starter pack. It took 1 1/2 tubs to completely get rid of it all, but it has completely gone! We are using the barrier and even in the wettest muddy field it has kept away.Very pleasee
(20/12/2016) Emmajane - Lincs
Effective dual attack Once an acute attack has been controlled by aroma-hee, aroma-mud helps with keeping it at bay.
I always have a pot of aroma-heel by the stables as I use it on any minor cuts scratches and bites, for horses, dogs and humans!
(10/08/2016) Sal - Cornwall
Brilliant product that fulfills its claims Tried this after seeing it advertised elsewhere last summer. Battled with Pastern dermatitis for 5 months & nothing vet recommended could clear it. Figured a money back guarantee was a bold claim to make that it had to be worth trying as nothing else had worked. Blow me after 3 days persistent scabs had fallen off, after 5 days all raw skin healed & fur regrowing. Few scabs reoccurred at Christmas this year & again within 5 days all healed. Now using liquid as a preventative measure. Absolutely does what it says on the tin as long as you follow instructions . Worth every penny !
(18/01/2016) Kate - Plymouth
We would recommend our Mud Starter pack to anyone whose horse has any of the problems below:
Also anyone who:
Aromaheel is quick, easy and pleasant to use in one simple step, and requires no bandaging or washing. It is effective for use on your horse's heels, legs and body.
Aroma-Mud can also be used on its own after scabs have gone to help prevent them returning.
There is no need to wash your horses legs between applications, in fact we recommend to avoid washing as much as possible. Simply wipe away any excess product or mud and reapply the products.
What do Aromaheel and Aroma-Mud contain?
Both Aromaheel and Aroma-Mud contain a unique blend of essential oils and herbal extracts specifically chosen for their soothing, antibacterial and barrier properties.
How often do I need to apply them?
Initially Aromaheel needs to be applied thickly once or twice a day to all scabs. After the first application either wipe away any excess first or apply more ointment over the top. Once the scabs have come off and the weeping has stopped you will be able to apply less and gently rub it in.
Aroma-Mud then needs to be applied around the areas of Aromaheel until the area is fully healed. Then if you continue to use Aroma-Mud as a preventative, dependent upon the severity of the conditions, an application every 1-2 days will provide complete protection against wet and mud conditions.
Do I need to wash my horses legs before reapplying?
No, we advise to avoid washing your horses legs as much as possible. Simply wipe off any mud or excess product before reapplying.
If you do wish to wash the legs at any point, we advise using an antibacterial shampoo such as our Itchy Horse Shampoo Bar and to ensure your horses legs are completely dry before applying Aromaheel or Aroma-Mud.
Could my horse be sensitive to Aromaheel or Aroma-Mud?
Aromaheel and Aroma-Mud are usually suitable for any horse however, it is possible for some horses to be allergic to even natural ingredients. We always advise performing a double patch test over 48 hours on a small area of normal skin (not on the legs) before first use.
What is the shelf life of Aromaheel and Aroma-mud?
Both these products have a shelf life of 12 months from purchase if stored in a cool place. After this time their effectiveness may be reduced.
Can these products be used on other animals?
These products have been developed and tested specifically for use on horses only, therefore we do not recommend using them on other animals.

A Walk in the Woods is based on the 1998 book by travel writer Bill Bryson- a book I read a few years ago- so I was eager to see the film version starring Robert Redford and Nick Nolte. I am sad to say I enjoyed the book way more (I know, always the case). However, I was not prepared for how much worse the movie was. It's possible that because Redford initially confirmed he would produce and star in the film adaptation in 2005, and had numerous people in to adapt the screenplay and direct, finally settling on Bill Holderman and Ken Kwapis, this may have lead to the choppy and uneven film version.

All of us Long Beach Island residents know the importance of the South Jetty Light House. Here is an article from the SandPaper about the restoration project currently underway here:
The 150-foot barge Fathom Innovation, carrying a 200-ton crane, turned heads on Saturday, Sept. 19, when it tied up off Fourth Street in Barnegat Light. It was there to pick up supplies before starting a project to rebuild the Sandy-damaged light tower on the South Jetty. Marine Technologies Inc. of Baltimore expects the job to take six to seven days after it starts, said Project Manager Dustin Hawley. After demolishing what's left of the old tower, they'll build a galvanized steel tower that is anchored to the jetty rocks by a concrete foundation. Read more…

Development Diary: Moscow Rules
by Michael D. SellersMoscow Rules is a project which we are developing at MovieBank Studios and Quantum Entertainment based on true events in Moscow during the height of the Cold War in 1985. The story has been classified these many years … until very recently the CIA decided to declassify major portions of it. Our particular angle on it is a little unique in that the film-maker was a participant in the events that will be described, so it will have a higher degree of credibility, and realism, than any other espionage movie attempted.My involvement in the actual events came about as a result of my being assigned to the CIA's Moscow Station during 1984-86. During that time I was one of a handful of CIA officers assigned to the US Embassy in Moscow. Our job was essentially to look like diplomats but–with KGB surveillance following us virtually 100% of the time — figure out ways to meet clandestinely with a very small number of high-level Soviet Agents who were considered to be worth the risk of handling in Moscow's extremely hostile environment.My own activities in Moscow began in September of 1984 and continued until March of 1986 when I was arrested and eventually expelled from the USSR after a brief stay in Lubyanka Prison. At the time I didn't know it — but my compromise, which resulted in the death of the agent I was handling, a Soviet KGB officer named Vorontsev, was to become the first of a string of compromises caused by a "mole" in the CIA, Aldrich Ames. Ultimately as many as a dozen agents were compromised. Ironically enough … when researching this on the internet I came across actual KGB photos of my arrest. The first one is at the moment of the arrest, and the second one is during my interrogation at Lubyanka, with all the spy gear laid out in front of me. I will be writing more about this, and putting up a photo gallery. In the meantime, anyone who is interested in learning more about this can download the file below, which is a very fascinating CIA study, which the agency recently declassified, of one of the main cases the CIA was running in Moscow at the time. I will also be putting up a photo gallery which sheds further light on this project. Download tolkachev_a_worthy_successor_to_penkovskyu.pdf

text: I had a coworker ask for me to create a couple of Gift Sets for her to give a loved one. She is an elderly lady, so I wanted something with a more traditional feel. I packaged them in some clear card boxes that I purchased on Etsy. I like keeping these on hand for gift-giving. I usually add a wide grosgrain or sheer ribbon and a gift tag for the recipient. Las year when Lindsey needed lots of hostess gifts for her bridal showers, we made Monogrammed note card sets for each of the hostesses. They were VERY well received. I love using my Stampin' Up! supplies to make personalized gifts! Why don't you give it a try!

Automatic Water Change System (AWCS)
Hi All,
Tired of water change?
I have an Automatic Water Change System (AWCS) which I developed to offer. This system performs daily water change, water top up, anti-chlorine dosing to keep your fish tank water in healthy condition.
Daily water change amount is adjustable from 1L to 500L++, depends on your setup.
Whole system operates on DC12V, safe and easy to use.
Specially useful for fishes which need large amount of water change like aros, rays, monster fishes, goldfish, koi, ranchus...
some of parts of the AWCS.
pm for more pic and video.
This system consists of :-
1) Flexi-overflow: Adjustable overflow setup, no drilling on tank needed.
2) Precision Dosing Pump: Adjustable dosage from 3drops / 0.2ml to 5ml+.
Small amount water change. Eg: Seachem Prime 10ml treats 400L tap
so this dosing pump can dose from 0.2ml to treat 8L tap water top up.
3) Customized wireless controller with apps.
4) 12V power supply, valves, pumps, piping.
AWCS operations: (Initial setup - fill and age water in reservoir tank.)

Guten Tag und Herzlich Wilkommen!
I'm very pleased to be joining the staff of Eagle Ridge and Smarts Mill middle schools in 2019-20 as your German teacher. At age 17 I left the tiny town of Johnsonburg in northwestern Pennsylvania to be an exchange student in Germany. It was the first step of a great adventure that continues to this day. I am eager to find out what adventure awaits YOU!
This is my third year teaching German, and my second year in Loudoun County. I came to teaching in 2013, after studying international affairs, spending nearly four years doing research in Germany and Austria, and working as a staffer and researcher in the public policy research world of Washington, DC. I look forward to getting to know my students, exploring the German language and culture with you, and having a great school year. Taking a foreign language is a big step into the unknown, but one we will take together.
View my favorite video on learning to speak a foreign language from the folks at Easy German.
Course Descriptions
Please find below the syllabi for German I and II, which describe the courses in detail.
Material for both courses is drawn from a variety of textbooks and online resource banks, and is made available in Google Classroom. Vocabulary lists can be found in Quizlet (search for Krista_Rogers1).
Here is a video in which I describe course and classroom expectations (prepared for Back to School Night at Smarts Mill Middle School on 8/21/19):
Where to Find Me, Contact Information
I teach at Smarts Mill Middle School on A days. My classroom is B13. During my planning block, 1/2, I can usually be found in the House B resource center.
I teach at Eagle Ridge Middle School on B days. I am in B10 for blocks 5 and 6, and in B16 for Block 8. During Block 7 I can usually be found in the House B resource center.

The clock is ticking. At Escape 20/20 in Okemos you only have 60 minutes to break your way out of a locked room.
Your only help are the puzzles and clues you find around you.
Escape rooms are the newest trend across the country.
Kathleen Fox and her sisters just opened up the Lansing area's first escape room business in January.
"When I first started looking at this, about 300 of them were open in the United States," says Fox, "in the last six months it has doubled in size. And what I wanted was Lansing to be on the map.'
Whether you're with family, friends, or co-workers, it's a test of wits.
You'll find yourself locked in a turn of the century parlor, or maybe in a 1950s sitting room decked out in memorabilia.
Escape 20/20 caters to families looking for a fun time, or businesses hoping to build teamwork.
"You can critique and figure out what worked and what didn't work and then practice those skills," says Fox.
And so far, "breaking out" is getting rave reviews.
Maybe you'll have to search a book case or enter the right set of numbers - either way, the countdown is on.
You have to call to make a reservation. It costs $24 a person.
They have cameras going in the rooms to keep an eye on things and help out if you need it.

Ongoing construction activity in the region, including that for factories, has made it imperative for the company to stay in readiness for greater business
August 2014
Dubai Cranes & Technical Services LLC, a subsidiary of Dubai Investments PJSC, has announced the opening of its crane storage and assembly facility in the region, which will significantly reduce the delivery time for standard cranes across the GCC and Mena region and lead to savings in cost and time for clients and partners.
The new Dubai Cranes facility, within the Dubai Investments Park (DIP), is currently a one-stop destination for a wide variety of standard, overhead crane kits which are high in demand amidst the unprecedented construction activity across the region.
With its new facility, Dubai Cranes can now deliver standard cranes for projects within four weeks compared to the average turnaround period of 16 weeks, which factored in time required for manufacturing in Europe, shipping, assembly and delivery time.
All hoists, controls, end carriages and electrical equipment offered at Dubai Cranes' new facility are built and supplied by UK-based Street Cranes. Street offers one of the world's most comprehensive ranges of crane components with capacities from a few kilogrammes to 250 tonnes incorporating important safety and operating advantages which make the equipment particularly suited to conditions in the region.
The new facility will stock over 50 standard overhead crane kits from the Street ZX and LX product range offering various lifting capacities and be able to accommodate crane spans of up to 20 m. Apart from storage, the facility offers fabrication services for crane beams, gantries and other structural crane parts and also spare parts for both the company's cranes as well as for competitor crane companies.
Andrew Kay, general manager of Dubai Cranes, said: "We are thrilled to offer a unique facility, which will revolutionise the entire crane industry in the region. With our new storage facility, we have cut the average turnaround time for cranes from 16 weeks to four weeks, which will have significant implications on the overall costs as well as project schedules. This is a major lift-up for the construction sector in the region.
"Apart from the storage, we offer a holistic range of value-added services directed towards crane installation, fabrication and overhauling and also provide spare parts to make it a one-stop shop for anything related to cranes. We understand that when a crane is down in the field, customers need spare parts and maintenance as fast and as economically possible, and we provide that."
The company is currently catering to a vast number of projects, including Emal, Dubal and Dubai Electricity & Water Authority (Dewa). Dubai Cranes is also witnessing a huge demand for its cranes in a wide array of infrastructure projects in the midst of unprecedented construction under way across the region.
Dubai Cranes is one of the region's leading manufacturers of overhead material-handling equipment and specialises in advanced lifting solutions and maintenance services. Products include wire rope hoists, industrial cranes and explosion-proof cranes – used in almost all industries.
Rigorous safety inspections and preventive maintenance programmes are regularly performed by the Operational Reliability Inspection Team, to ensure the maintenance status of the equipment and eliminate any potential safety hazards, says the company. This includes testing all cranes for critical component damage to determine any possible wear, deterioration or malfunction of the machinery.
The company offers a maximum lifting capacity of up to 300 tonnes.
The cooperation between Dubai Cranes and Street Cranes, UK, began in 2011 following the conclusion of an agreement under which advanced design factory cranes would be available to manufacturers in the UAE on short lead times.
The agreement enjoined that Dubai Cranes would carry a substantial stock of Street's crane kits that would be used with locally fabricated structual components to meet the lifting needs up to 300 tonnes and that Street Crane would share technical expertise with Dubai Crane so that major crane structures such as gantries and crane beams could be fabricated to UK and European standards in Dubai.

Immigrants' Eligibility for Unemployment Compensation
April 2002
To be eligible for unemployment insurance, immigrant workers must satisfy the same basic requirements as other workers. First, they must be unemployed "through no fault of their own." Second, they must have enough wages earned or hours worked to establish a claim. Third, they must be able and available to work, and they must be looking for, and not refuse, "suitable" work. Additionally, under federal law, immigrant workers must be in particular immigration categories in order to qualify for unemployment insurance. Under the law, the state will look at immigrants' status at the time the work was performed, (the "base year") and at the time that the worker applied for benefits, (the "benefit year"). This fact sheet explains the law.
A. State-funded benefits.
Most immigrants receive regular UI benefits funded through a payroll tax on employers. This section explains eligibility for those benefits.
1. Immigration status during the Base Year.
Federal law says that the following immigrants can use their "base year" wages to qualify for unemployment insurancebenefits for the first twenty six weeks of unemployment.
(1) Immigrants who were admitted for permanent residence at the time services were performed,
(2) immigrants who were lawfully in the United States for the purpose of performing services, and
(3) immigrants who were "permanently residing in the United States under color of law."
a. Admitted for Permanent Residence.
The first category covers lawful permanent residents of the United States – those who have a "green card," or "MICA," as it is commonly called in Spanish. Immigrants' Eligibility for Unemployment Compensation
Immigrants' Eligibility for Unemployment Compensation
b. Lawfully in the US to perform services.
The second category covers immigrants who have authorization to work in the United States. This category includes Canadian and Mexican immigrant commuters authorized to work in the US, nonimmigrants granted work authorization, such as H2 and H1B workers, and any other immigrant who has "work authorization" from the INS.
c. "Permanently residing under color of law" or PRUCOL. The third category, those "permanently residing under color of law," is much broader. The Department of Labor has issued a series of policies on its definition of PRUCOL. At least the following groups of immigrants will have wages credited to them under DOL's policy:
"¢ Refugees;
"¢ Immigrants who have been granted political asylum;
"¢ Immigrants who have been "paroled" into the US. (This is not "parole" in the sense of on "parole" from a criminal conviction, but a different kind of parole given for humanitarian reasons);
"¢ Immigrants who have received "withholding of deportation;"
"¢ People who are "conditional entrants" into the US (this is a category that was used before 1980 to describe refugee status);
"¢ Cuban/Haitians who have been granted parole, applied for asylum or have not received a final order of deportation;
"¢ Immigrants who have been notified in writing by the INS that deportation action will not be taken against them or that deportation is indefinitely delayed;
"¢ Certain immigrants presumed to have been lawfully admitted for permanent residence under 8 CFR 101 (these include narrow categories of immigrants who entered from certain countries at different times, all prior to 1943);
"¢ Immigrants who have been granted a lawful immigration status that allows them to remain in the US for an indefinite period of time. Other groups of immigrants should qualify for the first 26 weeks of benefits, even though they are not directly mentioned in Department of Labor policy. These include one group of immigrants who are considered "qualified" under the Personal Responsibility Act of 1996:
"¢ Battered spouses or children approved or with applications pending under the Violence Against Women Act (abused spouses and/or children of US citizens or lawful permanent residents).
Are there any other groups of immigrants who qualify for unemployment insurance under state laws?
DOL's policy on the groups of immigrants who are PRUCOL is much narrower than the court decisions defining PRUCOL. States that have laws that are more generous that DOL's policy risk sanction of their UI system.
However, at the hearing level, advocates might argue that other groups of immigrants qualify for the first 26 weeks of unemployment benefits. These groups of immigrants are not directly mentioned in the law, but the law generally covers people who are in the United States with the knowledge and permission of the Immigration and Naturalization Service. Advocates might be able to help immigrants qualify for benefits if the immigrant has applied for a particular immigration status, and has some indication that the INS knows about the person and does not intend to deport him or her. DOL's Additional test for PRUCOL: "Permanently residing" in the US. Immigrants whose base period wages are counted for a claim under the PRUCOL category must also show that they are "permanently" residing in the US. This term means a relationship that is continuing or lasting. The Department of Labor says that only people who have been granted some kind of unconditional permission to be in the US will qualify under this category. This interpretation is not in keeping with the usual meaning of the term "permanently residing." Advocates should argue in individual cases that where an immigrant intends to permanently remain in the US, he or she is "permanently residing" in the US.
More tests for PRUCOL: Does an immigrant have to have "work authorization" in the base year, in order to have wage credits?
DOL's policies say that a PRUCOL immigrant must also have work authorization in order for base period wages to be counted toward a claim. DOL's policy conflicts with the law itself, which covers immigrants who EITHER have PRUCOL status OR work authorization. Advocates should argue that PRUCOL status in the base year is sufficient to establish a claim.

Any what?
Since you do not formulate your questions clearly ( and even if you did I am not a legal attorney to advise you ), my suggestion is that you read the above guidelines on unemployment compensation attentively and act accordingly.
If you still have questions ,or have difficulty comprehending the text written in plain English, your best bet is to contact National Employment Law Project at (212) 285-3025 [ email: firstname.lastname@example.com website: www.nelp.org ]or consult an attorney specializing in the relevant field (Immigration and Employment Law).
Many Attorneys provide free first consultations and answer to basic questions free of charge ( if money is your concern).

'Batten down the hatches!' 36x18 Oil on Canvas. Private collection.
The Schooner Wharf bar in Key West. Colorful and lively with live music spilling across the water. I was painting from a dock and noticed that all the boaters around me suddenly got busy adding extra dock lines and batting down anything that moved. The clouds that you see in the background turned out to be a front moving in from the SW and within minutes of this stage of the painting the wind hit hard and sudden, blowing it off my easel and into the water where it was retrieved by a guy in a dinghy just before it sank! Rain came in sideways as I struggled to fold up my easel and gear and tourists were scrambling for cover. An exciting end to a relaxing day of painting!
'Petronia St. Rooster'
18"x24" Private collection.
I did many paintings in and around Bahama Village as do many other painters who see the special fabric this little neighborhood has. The green building was my first home in Key West. The rooster in the foreground owned this corner.
'Santa Maria' 20"x40" Private collection.
Over the intercostals waterway in St Augustine , Florida. Everywhere you turn around here looks like a painting. This is my first in the Nations oldest city.
'High wire'
This is really a painting about adolescence. Watching my oldest son navigate between child and adulthood and relating it to my own high wire act. I left this painting at a consignment shop and lost track of it. I hope it's found a good home.
'Old Ft. Lauderdale Bridge'
Private collection
I finished this painting just as the rain you see in the distance reached my spot. I was folding up my stuff when a couple got out of a cab with bags of groceries and hurried to their inflatable dinghy anchored at a near by dock. In the rush to beat the rain I regret we didn't meet. I watched them from my van as they loaded their bags on to their boat in the rain.
'Three Generations'
20"x40" Oil on canvas
Private collection.
These are the reasons I love to paint. This started out to be a simple painting of an old abandoned rusty and overgrown bike that was chained to the wooden fence right outside my door in Bahama Village. I planned on throwing out some rice to sketch some chickens in the foreground. But, it was Sunday morning and these three elegant ladies were on their way to church. I saw them coming and had just enough time to snap a bad picture and make some quick notes with my brush. I painted over the bicycle and fed the chickens anyway. I love this painting.
'Violin Practice'
Private collection.
My daughter can actually learn things by practicing in her head while she naps. Her music teacher thought she practiced diligently. This is the only painting I have ever regretted selling.
'St. Augustine Cat'
8"x10" Oil on canvas.
Private collection.
I was asked by a friend to paint this significantly historic building for a gift to his wife. The cat stole the show.

- This may be the perfect 24 hour or EDC bag.Review by Mr. Pond
The lower front features an exceptionally well laid out admin / organiser pocket with plenty of space for pens, notebooks, EDC tools, medical supplies, spare phone batteries and even a kindle or small iPad. This is possibly the best 'organisation' pocket I've ever seen and used on a bag this size - it allows you to carry everything you need without being so big that it encourages you to over-carry pointless bits & pieces. Forces you to be mission-critical in other words.
There's a soft pocket on the top for sunglasses or a larger phone, and finally a separate pouch at the back for a hydration bladder. The pack has a stiffener at the back so it's comfortable to use even when filled with things that have corners e.g. Peli cases.
For military users, this is a really good option for a RAID or 24 hour pack. At a stretch you could use it as a 48-hour pack, but if you have to include food in your load then it might get a bit tight for space. Otherwise an excellent option for 24-hour (or under) ops. This pack really is well thought out. It allows you to carry everything you need for 24 hours, or a day out, and works extremely well as an EDC bag, without being so big that it encourages you to overload it.
A note on the "double tap" colour - I was hoping that this would match the "storm grey" in which 5.11 offer a lot of their gear, but in reality double tap is much darker than storm grey. Unlike one of the other reviewers I haven't found it to be green at all, but it definitely doesn't match any of the other 5.11 storm grey kit. This isn't necessarily a disadvantage, since double tap is actually a nice subdued dark grey, but if like grey and for some reason (uniform for example) you need your gear to match, then it's something to be aware of.
I've used my Rush 24 daily for over 3 months and it's held up perfectly, even when I've severely overloaded it as described above. 5.11 bags really are incredibly tough. Ultimately I think it's slightly expensive for a pack of this size (~30L) but the quality of construction, the very well thought out layout and the sheer variety of storage pockets and organisational capability means that it comes very highly recommended.

- Exactly as ExpectedReview by Jonathan
- My go to bagReview by _Slevy
- Great Pack (but watch out for double-tap!)Review by Dave
I watched Youtube vids about the colours, and whilst black was my preferred choice, it was out of stock here at HH so I went for double tap. The pics here make it look like a charcoal grey with black webbing.
This is not the case!
It's actually a really dark green with black webbing. Seriously - none of the pics online can represent this color properly. Mine also looks even more green in direct sunlight.
In any case it's not grey, so keep that in mind when ordering it.
+ This thing is bomb proof. The 1050D nylon triple coated blah blah is strong stuff.
+ Very roomy. Pocket after pocket combined with the strong material makes this a tardis.
+ It sits very well on your back. The chest strap is great for me, and I don't find the need for a waist strap with this size pack.
+ All the good stuff people say about this pack is true (check YT).
+ The bag does stand up on it's own (I saw a review saying they don't, but if you pack the bottom of the bag out - they do).
- For added water resistance, I would have liked for the zips on the top pockets (when looking at the front of the pack) to terminate at the bottom, so water couldn't run into these from the top.
- The side pockets do eat into the space of the main pack, but not detrimentally. However a 750ml bottle or thermos is about the largest you'll comfortably get into these side pockets.
I'm returning the double tap version and getting the black one (as they're now in stock again).
HH have been as great of course.

- A solid, well made and useful daysackReview by James
I'm glad I settled on the Rush 24. It's just about the perfect size for travelling, can hold a tonne of stuff and yet also has enough small pockets that I can still organise travel documents and personal electronics. It's also very solidly built and I would have no problem strapping it to the back of a bergan and taking it into the field. Acres of MOLLE means that I can strap more pouches to it if required too. The colour I chose (sandstone) looks pretty innocuous, but fits well with MTP, so works well for my purposes.
I'll admit that this is at the expensive end of the daysack range, but it's a quality product and one that I would no problem recommending to anyone with similar requirements.

How Will SEO Help my Business? (How does SEO Work?)
By Zukais
"How will SEO help my business?"
I get this question all the time.
Especially since I live in a small town.
It's sad that most businesses fail and shutdown.
In fact, a lot of businesses these days go into so much debt before they shut down.
Spending many years dedicated themselves to their business, only to be further behind than when they started.
I believe if these businesses implemented SEO, many of them would still be running today.
So, will SEO help your business?
Yes, SEO will help your business.
SEO is simply the act of putting pages on Google that come up as a search query result.
For example, someone types in "Best gym in Liverpool" and your gym business shows up…
…there's a good chance that the person typing this search query into Google will become a customer of a business showing up in the search results.
Because they're looking for a gym in Liverpool and they're being presented with a bunch of relevant results.
You could completely change your business with SEO.
In fact, some businesses tell their marketing agencies to calm down with the SEO because they can't handle any more clients.
That's a good problem to have.
SEO can be applied to most businesses.
I say "most" just to be careful because there might be businesses where SEO can't be applied.
None that come to mind but that may be the case.
I know some people who got their start in SEO because they wanted to help their parent's business succeed.
And they did exactly that!
SEO is a pretty straightforward concept to grasp.
It's easy said than done.
There's a lot that goes into optimizing web pages to show up on the first page of Google.
Here's what you have to do:
- Do the correct keyword research
- Create a website with the correct structure
- Put up content on that website that ticks many different boxes
- Optimize the content for the search engines
- Build backlinks to the website
There's a lot that goes into these 5 steps and it can be overwhelming.
I know I was overwhelmed when I got into SEO.
If you're serious about taking your business to the next level and want to learn SEO…
…check out the SEO Blueprint.
Everything you need to know about search engine optimization for your business is in there.
Do you want someone else to handle all the SEO work?
If you want someone else to take care of the SEO, you find an SEO agency.
This agency can't be some crappy little agency you hire that will do your SEO for £150 per month.
I've personally spoken to business owners who fell into this trap…
…and there was more bad than good done to their site.
Spammy, outdated strategies were used.
You need to find an SEO agency that's well-known, has a ton of positive reviews and gets the work done.
ClickDo is the SEO agency you need.
We offer you a fair price and premium SEO.

- Jets HC Todd Bowles said RB Matt Forte underwent an MRI on Monday and is "day-to-day" after hyperextending his right knee during Week 14. (Rich Cimini)
- Although Bowles said Forte experienced swelling as well as "cracking and popping" in his knee, he is confident that there is no ligament damage.
- Michael Rothstein of ESPN could see the following contract-year players for the Lions test free agency: WR Andre Roberts, RT Riley Reiff, RG Larry Warford, DE Armonty Bryant and LB Josh Bynes.
- Rothstein mentions that while Reiff and Warford have played well for Detroit, they could both command sizeable contracts on the open market.
- The question for Reiff remaining on the roster is whether he's willing to continue playing at right tackle or look for an opportunity to move back to left tackle.
- As for Warford, it depends on how the staff feels he compares to Laken Tomlinson, Joe Dahl, or someone not currently on the roster.
- While the Raiders have yet to hear anything about suspended DE Aldon Smith being reinstated, they are "hopeful" to have an answer within the next couple of days. (Paul Gutierrez)
- When asked about GM Les Snead's future with the team, Rans COO Kevin Demoff said the team is undergoing a full review: "Starting today we'll have a complete review of the entire organization. We'll analyze that department." (Ian Rapoport)
- Demoff mentioned that they will be open in regards to their coaching search and will not limit their criteria to interviewing just offensive, defensive, or special teams coaches. (Myles Simmons)
- Regarding former HC Jeff Fisher, Demoff said the decision to fire him was performance based and took into account the team's disappointing Week 14 showing: "Solely a performance issue. We wanted to make sure games like yesterday didn't happen again." (Ian Rapoport)
- Demoff didn't pure everything on Fisher, saying: "This is an organizational failure. … We all have to take a look in the mirror," (Myles Simmons)

Sheer Mag
Words by Emanuelle Honnorat
Sheer Mag's " Fan the Flames" was my first introduction to the band. A bluesy rock band, their guitar riffs and main singer's voice are reminiscent of indie music favorite "Alabama Shakes".
An American rock band formed in 2014 and originating from Philadelphia, Sheer Mag combines 1970s rock and punk without the teenage angst usually associated with punk rock. Between 2014 and 2016, the band released three EPs, eventually propelling them to their latest Studio Album "Need to Feel Your Love".
The release of their first studio album, however, is not the first musical recognition they've had. The band has already been featured in prominent music magazine Rolling Stone and was included in the "10 New Artists You Need To Know". Not so surprisingly, the magazine also described them as " a gang of punks with a not-so-secret love of Seventies classic rock." Making their way to the big leagues, the band was part of the Coachella 2016 lineup and performed on Late Night with Seth Meyers.
Just like any other band, there's a story of transformation and metamorphosis for Sheer Mag as well.
Lead guitarist Kyle Seely and his brother Hart Seely had a previous band by the name of D's Licks, a recording, and design project Kyle made for a class in college. The two brothers ended up recording what became the tracks of Sheer Mag's eponymous debut EP.
One just has to listen to their music to understand how each riff compliments another. The bass, drums, and guitar have their own dialogue happening with lead singer Christina Halladay wrapping up the sound perfectly. Halladay's ferocious howls can only be echoed by a band equally as strong.
Maybe it's the punk aspect of the band or the fact that band rose from the depths of upstate NY's DIY rock scene, but Sheer Mag makes you feel nostalgic about times you didn't even live through. Sheer Mag reminds you of when you'd dream of driving from coast to coast, bare feet on the dashboard of a convertible Mustang, hiding behind heart-shaped sunglasses thinking you were the queen of the world. Perhaps it's a classic cliche of teenage escapism tuned to beats of rock, but everyone always has a bit of punk in them. sheermag

Over the past few days, I have been reorganizing my Lightroom Catalog and my external hard drive. I have over 14 years worth of images, both personal and professionally on this drive. 30 thousand images. I have client images from when I first started my photography career on that drive. I had the "smart" idea to delete old file folders off of this drive without thinking really to check them. It was my new folder that I deleted.
So, after crying for a few minutes, I remember back a few years ago when my brother was being funny and sprayed my window with the water hose and the water came in through the seal. My original hard drive fell to the ground and crashed. I couldn't get it up and working. At that time I lost 6-7 years worth of photos on that drive. Today, I am going to tell you how I went about saving those images, and how I am saving the day today to restore 14 years worth of photos!
If You're Reading This Post Because You too Lost Files
Stop And Take A Deep Breath
Really, if you are here because you also lost images like I have, then just stop and take a breath. I can not guarantee that they will all be recoverable. Especially if it was like what happened the first time to me, but if you accidentally "permanently" deleted them like I did today, then there are a few things you might be able to do to restore them.
If you have saved anything else to the drive or SD card, then you may have written over the origial data on the drive, so don't do anything until you look in your Trash Bin to make sure it isn't in there! Unfortantly when I deleted the files, they were to big to go in the trash bin and were "permanently" deleted.
First thing you will want to do is download the Recuva program. Just follow the prompts and install it on your computer. It didn't take long for me to get this up and running on my computer.
Then, you can select just to recover photos only. Since I had my lightroom catalog and much more in there, I wanted to try and recover everything! I would also suggest not recovering to the same drive that this happened to. It could override what you are trying to recover.
I am recovering a lot of files. I am told it would take about 19 hours! BUT, the green ones mean they have not been overwritten by any other files. The yellow dots mean that the files is partially recoverable, and red means that I had written over them. So, 30 thousand files may be back, may not. I will find out once this process is done. But, looking in the folder I am using to recover the files, I am hopeful most if not all of the files I accidently deleted are recoverable since I didn't do anything else.
Hopefully this helps you get your files back, and your not sending your drive off to a professional that will cost several hundreds to restore. I know when I called seagate to recover my old drive I was quoted $700.00 for it. I can't afford that. I also didn't follow common practice in the photography field and have backups… that is something that I am changing today. I am doing a cloud backup and I am getting a few new hard drives as I can afford it.
