At My Cash Cow, our goal is to provide the best customer service in the Payday Loan Industry. We provide Payday Loans against all types of income including benefits, disability, pension and employment. Our application processing company uses secure internet encryption technology to protect your privacy, which verifies your identity and allows you to sign the documents.
If MyCashCow receives your payment after the due date of your loan, it will be considered late, and you will be charged a fee of $50 from MyCashCow. Annual interest for late payment is calculated at 59% after the original due date of the loan. You may also incur an overdraft charge from your bank. The best way to avoid making late payments is have sufficient funds in your bank account on your payment due date. MyCashCow has agreements with third party collections agencies, authorizing them to collect on delinquent accounts. Accounts may be settled for less than the amount actually owing, at the discretion of the collection agency.
If a pre-authorized withdrawal is returned for any of reason you will be charged an NSF fee of $50 from MyCashCow. You may also incur an overdraft charge from your bank.
Any customer who does not repay his or her loan in full by the loan's due date will be considered delinquent and the loan will be classified as non-payed. In such cases, the customer's file will be sent to a third party collection agency and customer will have this default reported to a credit agency. The customer's credit rating may be negatively impacted..
Our Annual Percentage Rate (APR) for loans is 596%. Currently we are not lending in Quebec, Manitoba and Ontario. This calculation is based on a sample client who would borrow and re-borrow the same amount of money for 26 consecutive paydays in one year.
Money can be emailed for small extra fee or received same day in your account if your loan is approved before 2.pm est.
Pursuant to relevant payday loan statutes and regulations, applecash.ca does not offer refinances, rollovers or extensions to its payday loans in any jurisdictions that prohibit refinances, rollovers, or extension.


The VMI 600 is designed to directly replace the spring mass, diaphragm actuator and mixing bowl in existing Impco 600 Gas Engine Carburetors.
By providing a multitude of fuel inlet vanes and passages evenly dispersed throughout the low-pressure region of the venturi, the fuel is more evenly distributed and providing a more homogenous mixture to the engine.
This upgrade to an older gas engine carburetor can improve mixing and assist with the air/fuel ratio by keeping the mix approximately at a desired rate. It will still be necessary to control and modify the ratio with a AFR controller.
The VMI 600 includes a carefully designed venturi designed specifically to maintain a constant fuel mixture and any load by drawing just the proper amount of fuel for the specific amount of air that is being drawn into the engine.
This will ensure that the ratio of fuel to air is constant and it will make the work of the air fuel controller much easier.
Mechanical carburetors are often designed to run richer as the load increases. The VMI will flatten out the fuel profile so that at any load the mix will still be about the same. By using an insert instead of the stand alone venturi like the VM-350, effort to install the venture in place of the carburetor is minimized.
If the engine is to be run in a lean burn mode, the improved mixing will extend the lean limit allowing the engine to be run leaner than it normally can with a traditional carburetor.
We recommend using the Continental Controls ECV 5 in conjunction with the VMI-600. This valve can precisely control fuel pressure which is ideal for fuel control along with a venturi.
Warning: A mechanical Carburetor normally provides for one last gas shutoff. With the diaphragm and the traditional carburetor removed, this final shut off has been eliminated. The user will be responsible for insuring that the control system has the ability to reliably and safely shut off all of the fuel to the engine.


As a B2B marketer, you're always looking for ways to more effectively reach your goals and support sales by bringing in qualified leads and generating demand for your company's products and services. Traditionally, marketers do all they can to maximize their voice in the market and engage the largest number of potential buyers with broad-reaching demand generation techniques. However, it's important that marketers consider all the available methods to move the needle and drive revenue for their organization and select the one that is most suited to their business. Account-based marketing (ABM) can be an effective alternative approach to marketing for many businesses.

Moving The Mound Back May Not Help Hitters At All
Photo by Tim Warner/Getty Images)
Baseball America learned on Thursday that Major League Baseball and the Atlantic League are planning to announce a series of significant rules changes for the independent league that will include moving back the mound beyond the current 60-foot, 6-inch standard. It will also use computerized doppler radar tracking to call balls and strikes (popularly known as robot umpires, although no robots are actually involved). There are also expected to be unspecified equipment experiments.
There are many significant questions about what these changes will do for the on-field product in the Atlantic League. And there are further concerns as to what such changes will mean for the players. Trackman statistical data that will be provided to all 30 MLB teams will make it easier for players in the Atlantic League to be analyzed by MLB front offices and should help players get signed. But the difficulty of extrapolating data of a different pitcher-batter battle will likely hinder some of that analysis. (Although it will create a small arms race among analytics departments to best figure out how to translate the data).
But when it comes to the even larger questions—will a mound move increase risks of injuries and will it benefit hitters as has been proposed?—the real answer is no one knows. Which is one of the main reasons MLB wants to conduct experiments in a real league which will provide countless data points.
Kyle Boddy is the founder of Driveline Baseball. His company is as data-driven as they come. So when asked about what could happen with a change to the distance from the pitching mound to home plate, his first answer is to point out that there is no research that he is aware of where anyone has significantly studied and actually measured the impact of moving back the mound with actual on-field or lab testing.
But Boddy does have some expectations based on his years of working with pitchers and hitters.
For one, he said he does not believe such a decision would increase the risk of injury. And he knows of no data or research to prove otherwise.
But maybe as interestingly, Boddy believes such a move will actually benefit pitchers much more than hitters. His hypothesis is that rather than increasing balls in play and making life easier for hitters, pitchers will find the combination of computerized balls and strikes and a moved-back mound to be very helpful for them. The move of the mound has been proposed because of the belief that the further distance would help hitters put the ball in play, cutting the skyrocketing strikeout rates that have concerned MLB.
Thanks to Trackman calling balls and strikes, "there are gonna be a lot of fastballs at the knees called balls and top-shelf breaking balls called strikes, plus buried sliders/changeups that are called strikes," Boddy said.
While it may seem counter-intuitive, Boddy also said that moving the mound back will allow pitchers to rely even more heavily on nasty breaking balls. While fastball effectiveness might be reduced slightly (because hitters have more time to react), breaking balls would become even tougher to hit, especially when combined with a computerized strike zone that gives pitchers more options for backdoor sliders or bounced curveballs that catch an edge of the zone.
"The mound being moved back will be way worse for hitters," Boddy said. "The difference is not large from a velocity/reaction-time standpoint, but the movement difference is huge."
The further the ball has to travel, the bigger break a breaking ball has both in actual movement and just as importantly in perceived movement to the hitter.
"Play catch with a big leaguer throwing sliders at 50 feet and then play catch at 70 feet," Boddy said. "(Catch at) 70 feet is infinitely more terrifying."
A year from now, theories will have turned into reality. But for now, it will be very interesting to see what is learned from the Atlantic League's great experiment.

Witnessing a mesmerizing sunrise amidst a sea of cloud after a gruesome 2 hour trek is an experience in itself to cherish for a long time.
This is what one can expect at the Skandagiri trek.
Skandagiri is also known as Kalavara Durga. It is an ancient mountain fortress located approximately 70 km from Bangalore city.
The peak stands at a height of 1350 meters overlooking the Nandi Hills.
- The trek starts from the Papagni Mutt, which is located at the foothills of the Kalwara village.
- The participants get to see a majestic view of the fortress located on the peak at a height of 1350 meters above sea level.
- The trail itself passes through a maze of dense shrubs which can be quite intriguing.
- There is an old abandoned Shiva temple at the top where the hikers can relax and enjoy the view of their magnificient surroundings.
Please keep in mind that we are entering a forest protected zone and it becomes our duty to protect it and help in nurturing it for all the future generations, so please help us by avoiding any kind of littering of plastic, making a lot of noise. We also prohibit our trekkers from playing music on speakers during the trek, however listening to music using a pair of head phones is absolutely fine.

Nature contains in itself a supreme intelligence that knows exactly what everything within it needs in order to thrive. It has been said that the primordial consciousness in nature, is identical to that of humans, including all animals and living beings that live within it. Within each thing is contained all things. In the seed is the tree; in the tree is the forest. Therefore, intelligence is contained implicitly in the many worlds and dimensions of nature, not only in our human-centered world.
Consciousness, or what I like to call mystical intelligence, exists in all forms of life. I believe that it is in itself that which animates life into the manifested existence. In other words, consciousness is the gas that pulsates reality. Life, creation and evolution are the stages of the unfoldment of consciousness. Plants, animals, humans, current consciousness, ancestral consciousness, are all part of the current reality as they exist beyond the confines of time -- constantly collaborating to create life.
Before we start going too deep on how consciousness is the blood line that connects us all, lets talk about adaptogenic herbs.
Adaptogens have long historical uses for their ability to reduce all kinds of stress, from environmental to mental to emotional, while supporting the body and mind with rapid recovery. The powerful nutrition of this particular class of plants is quite profound, so much so that many have been recorded for thousands of years for their deeply impacting effects on the psyche, mind, body and emotions. Not only were they revered for their normalizing effects on oxidative stress, or their ability to enhance metabolic function or their ability to powerfully protect the immune system, they were primarily revered for the deep spiritual attributes.
Most adaptogenic herbs have a strong regulating effect on our hormonal system, known as the 'molecules of consciousness'. Herbs that powerfully influence the hormonal system are usually associated to spirit herbs, as they clearly control our mood, perception, sleep-wake cycles and connection of reality. The dragons that dominate the hormonal system are basically in-charge of how we experience life, and how we perceive our reality.
It's no wonder the incredible popularity these herbs have received in today's world. We're in deeply transformative times in history, and these herbs are particularly excellent to nourish us with adaptive strength with the constant changes that are happening and might come.
Each adaptogen attunes the body to a particular energy, or set of energetic pathways. Because they work closely with the hypothalamus and pituitary glands, each adaptogen is ultimately experienced differently within each person. They directly attune the glands that control our perception, while simultaneously working on different energetic pathways. The hypothalamus is about the size of an almond and is located just behind our optic glands. Many ancient cultures have associated this gland as the god-center / the seat of consciousness or spirit. The hypothalamus secreted neurohormones that communicate with the pituitary gland, signaling the release of key pituitary hormones, which in turn activate pineal gland function, in other words, third eye abilities.
In other words, these herbs work directly with our consciousness and how we perceive life, essentially providing enlightening nutrition that ultimately taps the mind and body to higher frequency. Many believe that these herbs are popularly appearing on Earth to shift the current collective consciousness into a higher evolution. Ancient civilizations regarded these mystical herbs as transformers; agents of change that contributed to the shift of consciousness across different points in time. At this point in our planetary history, there is no point in simply surviving, it's essential we consciously feed ourselves the nutrition that grants us a passage beyond balance.
We stopped by today the 16th thinking it was your grand opening day. I did not see the updated date. Sorry we missed you we would have loved to speak with you. It is too far for us to come back during the week. Maybe in the future.


Vegetarian and vegan diets are acceptable for all levels of life, including during infancy, pregnancy, childhood, adolescence and old age, the authors write able assertion from the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.
An individual with diminished appetite will possible reply more positively to small meals and snacks versus an overflowing plate. Smaller meals can also profit individuals who have certain digestive issues. Appetite stimulants could also be warranted in some cases. Inquire with the doctor to see if it's applicable. Hunger and poor nutrition amongst children are widespread across Africa. India, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Bangladesh are among the many hardest hit countries by way of the numbers of kids affected, Branca told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.
Researchers discovered that women who had been more optimistic have been higher in a position to comply with wholesome consuming tips, each when they had been instructed to do so and once they chose to make changes on their own. At present, USDA oversees the contents of school lunches and bars the sale of meals with minimal nutritional worth, such as soda in the lunchroom. It does not control meals bought in a la carte strains or school stores. A nationwide 10 percent subsidy on vegetables and fruit could be probably the most useful coverage, with roughly 150,500 lives saved from deaths by coronary heart illness over the 15-year study interval, the authors estimate.
Using dietary fiber for example, the authors level out that 6 g is 23 percent of the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for ladies, adding that U.S. ladies are likely to fall in need of their recommended fiber intake by 8.9 g a day. When we discard food, we're also discarding quite a lot of wholesome nutrients. And many of those are nutrients lacking in the common American diet," lead creator Marie Spiker advised Reuters Health in an e-mail. The change comes as Donald Trump, one of the extra quick-food-friendly presidents in recent times, has vowed to slash regulation.
The most perishable foods, and those that we're almost certainly to throw away – vegetables, fruits and seafood – are additionally a few of the most nutritious," mentioned Spiker, a researcher at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in Baltimore, Maryland. Hingle and her group found that probably the most optimistic one third of the ladies noticed probably the most enchancment in their diets, whether or not or not they had completed the nutrition program.

Data Management // Big Data Analytics

Inside IBM's Big Data, Hadoop Moves
IBM DB2 adds in-memory analysis and compression tricks, while PureData System for Hadoop arrives as an appliance. But will IBM beat other tortoises in the Hadoop race?
13 Big Data Vendors To Watch In 2013
(click image for larger view and for slideshow)
IBM is making a series of high-profile analytics announcements on Wednesday from its Almaden Research Center in San Jose, Calif., a fitting location at the epicenter of big data activity. The themes of the announcements will sound familiar because they've been the subject of announcements by plenty of competitors in recent years, but IBM contends it's setting new standards of performance.
There are two major announcements. This first is BLU Acceleration, a combination of compression, in-memory analysis and vector-processing techniques that IBM says will drive huge improvements in relational database performance. BLU is set for release in the second quarter, and it will benefit DB2 first and foremost. IBM is also bringing the technology to the Informix database with this release and, according to sources, to the Netezza database in future releases.
The second announcement is IBM PureData System for Hadoop, an appliance-based platform that customers will be able to scale up by simply adding more boxes. The hardware will run an upgraded version of IBM's InfoSphere BigInsights Hadoop distribution that's also being announced on Wednesday.
In typical IBM fashion, the announcements are loaded with bravado about the billions the company has spent acquiring software companies in recent years, but there's plenty of substance behind the buzz words.
[ Want more on big data analytics announcements? Read 6 Big Data Advances: Some Might Be Giants. ]
With BLU Acceleration, IBM is taking advantage of the same breakthroughs in low-cost memory and processing power that SAP has been talking about in connection with its Hana in-memory database. BLU is not IBM's answer to Hana, however. The focus for now is strictly on analytics and does not, as yet, address transaction processing, so it's more of a competitive response -- bar raising, IBM contends -- to the likes of Teradata, HP Vertica and EMC Greenplum, and data warehousing uses of Oracle Exadata and Oracle Exalytics.
The techniques employed by BLU include hybrid row and columnar storage, advanced compression, data skipping, vector processing and leveraging of increasingly affordable memory to speed processing. We've seen all these techniques before -- mixed columnar and row from Teradata, HP-Vertica and EMC Greenplum, data skipping from InfoBright and IBM's Netezza database, vector processing from Actian (formerly Ingress), and aggressive use of memory from multiple vendors -- but IBM is alone in putting all of these techniques together.
With BLU, IBM says it will be able to crunch 10 terabytes down to 1 terabyte; bring that 1 terabyte into memory; and effectively crunch it again down to 10 gigabytes. With the data-skipping technology, the database can then focus in on the 1 gigabyte that matters to a query without wading through repeating or irrelevant data. Your mileage may vary, as the saying goes, but IBM reports that BLU improves performance by 8X to 25X over the last DB2 release (10.1).
All these enhancements will undoubtedly reassure existing DB2 customers that the database roadmap is keeping up with state-of-the-art features. "What's novel in IBM's approach is that it's doing acceleration in several ways," analyst Robin Bloor of Bloor Group told InformationWeek. Whether it breaks new performance benchmarks and changes market share dynamics remains to be seen.
"The 25X figure is very aggressive, but when people are making purchase decisions, they do proof-of-concept benchmarks and put one database up against another," said Bloor. "You don't actually know what kind of performance you'll get until you've done the comparisons."
What IBM has yet to address with BLU, and what will likely require more extensive use of memory, is transaction processing as well as analytics. That's what SAP is doing with Hana, it's what Microsoft has announced it will do with project Hekaton (expected in 2015) and it's what Oracle is rumored to be working on for a future Oracle Database release.
"We do see an evolution of this technology beyond reporting and analytic workloads, but I can't comment on a timeframe for that," IBM's Tim Vincent, IBM fellow, VP and chief technology officer told InformationWeek. If the same pattern holds that IBM took in introducing the BLU technologies, it might wait to see what others do before attempting to do them one better.


@Miyto: This is all relatives. Someone/something with average human intelligence doesn't even begin to compare to (certain) high tier spirits, capable of pulling off a Xanatos gambit. It could just mean that they most likely are just trying to fulfill the role of "make more pactins" as opposed to some grander scheme, such as "slowly subvert/convert a large group of mages to unwittingly release a large number of X from the abyss in order to accomplish Y, using steps A, B, and C, by riling up the Vampires in location Z and offering power to defeat those vampires..."
Now I'm curious what he caught relative to my previous text dump.
@The_Hyena_King: Means one of a few things.
Hope this doesn't spoil anything plot-wise, but our Mage campaign was very abyss-heavy.
Important note on this one: If entity A sufficiently controls the mind of entity B, (and entity B still exists) then entity A can force entity B to cast spells. This suggests Asia is still in there, and can be saved.
2. That may not have actually been Supernal magic at all... Spirit numina can look similar to all sorts of spells. (abyssal entities are generally a form of spirit) Since we do not yet know the details of what numina Hizrim has at full-strength after absorbing a Mage... this may suggest Asia is beyond saving.
3. Mages historically know very little about the Abyss, and that information that exists tends to be EXTREMELY well guarded, due to people like the Guardians of the Veil not wanting it to get into the hands of people who would use it for the "other side". Intentionally making deals with the abyss, summoning abyssal entities, using abyssal magic, is grounds for a death sentence in many parts of the world. With that much secrecy, there is a very real possibility that the book didn't have enough information, and/or is WRONG. This shows what the people think Pactins are. This doesn't mean that is what Pactins REALLY are. As a result... maybe it CAN continue to use Asia's powers after it for most intents and purposes has killed her. Maybe it just needs to save certain pieces, just not the pesky parts like personality or memory.
This is very well done. Thank you very much!
There will be about 4 or 5 of these pages... they are text-dense, so I am doing them in the format above. Since they are single-panel, I'll hopefully be doing double-updates on some of them.
Huh... the page broke somehow. Fixed now, sorry about that.
Final page for this chapter.
I'm sure there are still some things that don't quite make sense from this scene.
1. Mark crashed through White's window.
2. He threw bombs at her.
3. White transforms to bat and back again instinctually, to instantly heal the burns/explosion. Suddenly having bat-wings is not good on a night-gown.
5. Not realizing the dagger actually means something, she hits him with a disenchant, killing his "color sight" spell/illusion.
6. The entire room suddenly looks different. Less dark. More... normal and home-like. She looks different. Younger and less witch-ey. She's in her night gown of all things. (Now torn and burnt for obvious reasons) NOT the almost cult-ish garb she appeared to be in previously.
7. She is actually a were-bat, but comments that that should be obvious... so obviously shouldn't be a problem. It's not like she was hiding it from the other Magi.
8. The poison becomes a bit more obvious when she tries to shift-heal the dagger wound... and it doesn't work.
10. She is looking at all of this from a very calculating standpoint. She doesn't know what exactly is going through Mark's head at this point, but she knows he was being deceived somehow with mind magic. She has had enough people/things try to kill her in the past, that she can be a bit more practical about the situation. She knows she wouldn't be able to stop him if he decided to just flee... so she decided to be a bit more threatening about it. If it happens to work out that he turns himself in as a result... all the better. Then the truth can come out.
11. She then obviously needs to focus all of her energy on actually surviving this situation.
12. Her survival is unknown.
Well, realized that I wasn't going to be able to fit as much as I wanted onto one page, so had to re-think things a little bit.
The next page is done already, so that one can't be late.
This week has been crazy at work... Sorry, but no updates this week.
In case it wasn't obvious... part of the last page was an april fools joke... I'll be "fixing" the page soon.

SmartAsset Study Rates Ferris a Best Value Among Michigan Universities
A New York City-based financial data and technology company has named Ferris State University one of the 10 best-value colleges in Michigan for 2016. SmartAsset had included Ferris in its inaugural report, in 2015, with the ranking based on factors that included the average total of scholarships and grants awarded, the average starting salary for graduates, and the university's student retention rate. Ferris ranked seventh in this recently-released study, a repeat of its standing in last year's report.
Ferris' Dean of Enrollment Services Kristen Salomonson said that the concept of higher education affordability addresses the notions of value, and tangible outcomes.
"It's exciting to be on this list," Salomonson said. "At all levels of the university, we recognize that student debt is a significant concern, so we want to be a partner in limiting that debt. Tuition increases have been kept low, and we provide aid to help students so they can prepare for a career in their chosen field, understanding what it takes to succeed there."
Salomonson added that internship opportunities available to Ferris students, and the university's student-to-faculty ratio, accentuate the learning process and improve a student's experience as they pursue their degree.
The University of Michigan-Ann Arbor, Michigan Technological University, Michigan State University, Kettering University and Oakland University join Ferris State University as Michigan colleges included in both of SmartAsset's best-value college studies.

Lennox furnace running happily without any problems.
One of the most common reasons why furnaces break down is due to a dirty filter.
The more dust and debris that gets clogged in your filter, the more energy your furnace uses to pull the air through. This causes the motor to work harder and, once it's been overworked, it'll likely break down.
Since your Lennox furnace is constantly running, it's important to change the filters every 1-3 months to extend its lifespan and efficiency. If your home has a drier or dustier environment, it is better to replace the filter even more frequently to improve and maintain the quality of the air.
The majority of condensing furnaces use higher energy efficiency to operate, thus producing more heat while using less fuel. An external intake pipe is used for air supply. When the pipe is blocked or clogged, it reduces the efficiency of your pipe and can also cause a harmful buildup of carbon monoxide.
Make sure to seek the intake pipe on the outside of your home and ensure that it is clear of snow, ice, or other environmental factors. If you cannot locate the intake pipe on your own, have an HVAC technician do it for you. Remember, this is not just about HVAC maintenance, this is a safety precaution!
While there are thing you can do to keep your HVAC in decent condition, in the end, putting it in the care of certified and knowledgeable conditions is your best bet for prolonging the appliances life.
You can have regular HVAC maintenance appointments set up so that you can catch any issues before they worsen. The maintenance appointments will pay off in the long run, as they will help you avoid costly repairs.

Preservation of embodied carbon in the built environment
Some fascinating insights from acumen7 Member and MD of C-Probe Systems Graeme Jones, including the fact that 70% of infrastructure damage is due to corrosion, with the tragedies of the condo collapse in Florida and the bridge in Genoa two stark examples of why the issue can't be ignored. C-Probe has the technology to automate, streamline and improve the way we buy and warrant, build and manage buildings and infrastructure on a low carbon, sustainable basis. It's time to think differently in terms of decarbonisation for whole life by repurposing industrial wastes, securing embodied carbon and ensuring sustainability with futureproofing.

Confronting the barriers to MMC
Polypipe's Divisional MD Vince Fenson spoke about confronting the barriers to the adoption of MMC (Modern Methods of Construction). A discussion followed on the reasons for the slow adoption of MMC, with the carbon neutral agenda being posed as a way of moving in the right direction in future. MMC eradicates the many 'snags' common in traditional builds and, as well as improving energy performance, also means less waste and pollution in the construction process. Polypipe's businesses focus on developing and delivering engineered water and climate management solutions for the built environment.

Climate Risk Reporting: What Directors should know, right now
The Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TFCD), chaired by Michael Bloomberg, has been quietly working away on recommendations for corporate reporting of climate change risk. Companies will almost immediately need to take action. As the Wall Street Journal reports: "Working out who might be hit next is challenging for investors. The potential impact and costs of climate change are complex to estimate, particularly given the long time horizon and range of pathways the world might take as it tries to decarbonize. By forcing companies to work through different scenarios publicly, the TCFD reporting should bring some much-needed clarity to risks outside of obvious problem sectors like oil and gas. It should also shed light on climate leaders and laggards within sectors."
Please see the link to an Insight from acumen7 member Peter Dixon, looking at what Directors should know, right now:

Net Zero carbon homes: Is hydrogen the solution?
Moving over to a hydrogen economy is a major strategic decision that needs to be made soon
In its Future Homes Standard proposals, which are set to take effect from 2025, the government favours a combination of high energy efficiency standards combined with the use of heat pumps for heating new homes. But heat pumps are expensive to install and work best in well insulated homes, so might a shift to hydrogen work best for existing homes to meet the 2050 net zero carbon target as this would allow the continued use of gas boilers?
For this to happen the government needs to make a major strategic decision whether to back a hydrogen economy. This is because the gas grid must be either shut down or turned over fully to hydrogen.
If the network is switched off, then the government will need to press ahead with the proposed ban on gas boilers and insist on the use of air and ground source heat pumps, or direct electrical heating, along with rigorous installation standards. If the network is converted to hydrogen, then new builds could be equipped with whichever heating source is most economic at that point in time.
It may well be economic for large scale housing developments to be equipped with district heating systems, but again, the energy source is dependent upon whether hydrogen is available or not, and thus subject to the same uncertainty as for individual houses. But the decision is perhaps more urgent since the investment is for over a longer period than for say, a heat pump or boiler.
The big issue is existing homes, where some are connected to the gas grid, and some are not. If there is a hydrogen grid, then hydrogen boilers can be used, and in an interim period, boilers would need to be convertible from natural gas to hydrogen. Alternatively, depending upon the relative prices of hydrogen and mains electricity, then it would be viable for many homes to be equipped with air source or ground source heat pumps. Interim solutions include 'hybrid heat pump / gas' systems, where gas or hydrogen can be used to 'top up' the heat extracted from the heat pump so it is hot enough for radiators. Heat pump systems are increasingly prevalent today, although a major retraining programme for installers and maintainers will be required, as even many highly proficient technicians are unfamiliar with the different technology.
Homes that aren't connected to the gas grid and are unsuitable for heat pump technology would need to be equipped with direct electric and/or biomass heating.
If the government decides to back hydrogen where we would get it from? Steam methane reforming of natural gas is the dominant commercial technology, and currently produces hydrogen on a large scale but by its nature is not low carbon. It is essential that carbon capture and storage is combined with the process.
Electrolytic hydrogen production, also known as electrolysis, splits water into hydrogen and oxygen using electricity in an electrolysis cell. Electrolysis produces pure hydrogen which is ideal for low temperature fuel cells, for example in electric vehicles. Commercial electrolysers are on the market and have been in use for many years. Electrolysis is calculated to be more costly than methane reforming; however, it is clear to see that both methods may imply cost penalties over direct use of electricity.
Although hydrogen production facilities already exist at scale significant investment would be needed to produce the vast quantities of hydrogen needed to replace natural gas.
The lead times look very long on this decision as all new heating systems, whether fully electric or hydrogen based would need to be fully operational 10-15 years ahead of 2050. A hydrogen grid would also fulfil many other energy needs including transport which means the decision needs to be made even earlier. The Committee on Climate Change says that work needs to start on building a hydrogen grid by 2030.
Given the time scales within which actions must be taken, the government must soon make the major strategic decision as to whether to back a hydrogen economy or abandon the network altogether. It is thus in the interests of the housing industry to lobby hard now for a rapid and transparent consultation and decision process, since, as always, uncertainty is the enemy of good decisions, and the driver of increased costs.

A credible alternative to Europe's energy needs
acumen7 were treated to an enlightening presentation by Serge Colle on the benefits of Thorium Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) – a clean, safe energy alternative. Thorium is a readily available metal that is put aside when mining other metals. A small ball of Thorium that would fit in your hand can supply all of the energy you need for your whole life if it is put into a Thorium reactor. Another positive is that MSRs use plutonium waste from the nuclear industry, leaving smaller amounts each time, which is an environmentally friendly and safe way of recycling nuclear waste.

Flashback: ABC Pays the Price After Joy Behar Attacks Christianity on 'The View'
By Randy DeSoto
Published February 20, 2018 at 1:43pm
The offices of The Western Journal are closed on Sundays to allow employees to rest, spend time with their families, and worship if they choose. Therefore, we are sharing this popular article as a service to our readers.
"The View" co-host Joy Behar's comparison of Christianity to a mental illness on the Feb. 13, 2018, episode prompted over 25,000 calls to flood into the ABC network in protest in about a week.
The Media Research Center watchdog group reported that this tally had come in as of the following Monday morning.
The segment where Behar made the comparison centered around a back-and-forth regarding Vice President Mike Pence's faith, based on some recent comments made by former White House staff Omarosa Manigault.
"He's extreme," Manigault told Vanity Fair. "I'm Christian. I love Jesus, but he thinks Jesus tells him to say things. And I'm like, 'Jesus ain't say that.'"
First, co-host Sunny Hostin observed, "I think what's interesting is she says that Jesus tells Mike Pence things to say."
"When you have a Mike Pence that now puts this religious veneer on things and who calls people values voters, I think we're in a dangerous situation," she added. "Look I'm Catholic. I'm a faithful person, but I don't know that I want my vice president, um — speaking in tongues and having Jesus speak to him."
Behar chimed in, joking, "Like I said before, it's one thing to talk to Jesus. It's another thing when Jesus talks to you."
"Exactly. That's different," Hostin replied.
"That's called mental illness, if I'm not correct. Hearing voices," said Behar.
The Bible, in fact, records in the Gospel of John that Jesus said regarding born-again believers, "My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow me."
He further described Himself as a good shepherd, "And when (a good shepherd) brings out his own sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice. Yet they will by no means follow a stranger, but will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers."

Pence responded to Behar's put down of his faith in an interview that aired on "Fox & Friends" on Monday.

Host Ainsley Earhardt asked the vice president, "Is it hypocrisy that Liberals, Democrats, mainstream media, they preach tolerance, but yet when someone wants to be a Christian and says that God speaks to them, they have a problem with that?"
Pence responded that he is used to criticism, "But when I heard that ABC had a program that likened my Christianity to mental illness, I just couldn't be silent."
He continued, "Look, my Christian faith is probably the most important thing in my life. I do try and start every day reading the Bible. My wife and I try and have a prayer together before I leave the house every morning. But I do think I'm a very typical American."

"I think (Behar's comment) is evidence of how out of touch some in the mainstream media are with the faith and values of the American people," Pence stated.

Continued Settlement Construction Will Lead to Israel's Demise: Iran Revolution Guard
Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif shakes hands with former US Secretary of State John Kerry. (Photo: via Press TV)
As the dust settles on a UN resolution condemning illegal Israeli settlement building in occupied Palestinian territory, Iran has come out with a statement saying that Israel will pay dearly for continuing with the construction.
A spokesman for the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said that, by going ahead with settlements, the Israeli regime is risking "complete destruction," as it will "definitely provoke a reaction," as quoted by Tasnim news agency.
The rhetoric from Iran comes a day after US Secretary of State John Kerry had criticized Israel's activities in occupied Palestine, while playing down the United States' role in facilitating the passage of the UN Security Council's anti-settlement resolution.
not anymore. The beginning of the end was the horrible Iran deal, and now this (U.N.)! Stay strong Israel, January 20th is fast approaching!
Washington chose to abstain from voting at a Security Council meeting last Friday, when members voted to condemn the illegal construction. The Iranian spokesman hailed the move as a "sign that Washington has come to realize the course of events and continued settlement construction will result in the collapse of the Zionist regime of Israel."
The resolution was upheld with 14 votes in favor. While the US didn't vote for the resolution, it didn't veto it either, which is seen by some as a landmark change, given that Washington has blocked virtually every attempt to criticize Israel at the United Nations for decades.
Israel took control of Palestine in 1967, and has since faced mounting criticism of its occupation, which has included the construction of Israeli settlements on Palestinian land. Though the UN maintains that the settlements are illegal, construction has only been stepped up over the last year.
Has Kerry ever told Iran or Syria that their practicing of Islam is preventing peace? https://t.co/ILdw9iexsY #tcot
— IBDeditorials (@IBDeditorials) December 28, 2016
Some 430,000 Israeli settlers currently live in the West Bank, with another 200,000 calling occupied East Jerusalem home – a city that the Palestinians also view as their own capital.
In his recent comments, Kerry sharply criticized Tel Aviv, asserting that Israel's settlements in the Palestinian territory have "nothing to do with Israel's security," as Israel often claims.
Kerry argued that, without a two-state solution, "Israel can either be Jewish or democratic, it cannot be both, and it won't ever really be at peace."

How you can get FSSAI license easily online?
Our team will help you to get Fssai license.
Food Licensing & Registration System (FLRS) is an online application launched by Food Safety and Standards Authority of India to facilitate Food Business Operators (FBO) in India to apply for License/Registration Certificate and track their applications during the course of processing.
Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) is an autonomous body established under the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India. The FSSAI has been established under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006 which is a consolidating statute related to food safety and regulation in India. FSSAI is responsible for protecting and promoting public health through the regulation and supervision of food safety.
Every Food Business Operator(FBO) is required to obtain FSSAI registration. Operating a Food Business without a license is a punishable offence.
Food License or FSSAI (Food Safety Standards Act Of India) created under FSSA Act 2009 is an obligatory prerequisite for Food Business Operators to have. In the event that the Food Business doesn't obtain it, yet continues to work, the business is no more legitimate.
Application to FSSA Authority for new FSSA license requires Online registration on FSSA website and document file preparation according to licensing requirements as per Central/ State licensing/registration requirements.
We provide customize guidance on conversion of existing PFA license to new FSSA license OR guidance on applying for a new FSSA license to Central Licensing Authority OR to State Licensing Authority.
FSSAI application can be a tedious process. FSSAI Licenses and Registrations takes time. Moreover, nearly 93% FBO do not know in which of the three categories they fall for obtaining a FSSAI License. This lack of knowledge may result in wastage of time and efforts. But we are at the rescue, we will provide you guidance from the start to the end of this process.
The three licenses, however, differ on the basis of the scale of operation of the food business which is being carried out. The following is the detailed information on the three food licenses.
1. FSSAI Registration Central License: Food business operators such as the Importers, 100% Export Oriented Units, large manufacturers, operators in the Central Government agencies, airports, seaports etc are however required to obtain a Central Food License. The Central license is issued by the Central Government. Furthermore, FBOs have to obtain the Central License for their head office, and if they have operations in more than 1 state. It is thus mostly for the units who are having an annual turnover which is greater than 20 crores.
2. FSSAI Registration State License: Food business operators like small to medium sized manufacturers, storage units, transporters, retailers, marketers, distributors etc. are however required to obtain the Fssai State License. The State License is issued by the State Government and it is important that you have operations in only 1 state, in order to obtain the State license. It is thus mostly for the units having an annual turnover of more than 12 lakh.
3. FSSAI Registration: The Food business operators like petty food manufacturers and also the small-sized manufacturers, storage units, transporters, retailers, marketers, distributors etc are thus required to obtain the FSSAI Registration. The FSSAI Registration is however issued by the State Government. Depending upon the eligibility, an FBO can thus fall under the State or Registration license. It is thus mostly for the units having an annual turnover which is up to 12 lakh.
The Food Business Operators seeking a new license or looking of fssai License renewal their existing license have to apply through application form B, so there is just one application form for either applying for a new fssai License or to renew the existing license of a food business.
An FSSAI license is thus the single most important license which are necessary for food business operators in India. All the eligible food operators like manufacturers, transporters, distributors, retailers, etc are also required to have an FSSAI license before the commencement of the business. But, it is not necessary only getting of an FSSAI license , infact it is equally important in order to renew your license from time to time.
The validity of an FSSAI license extends from 1 to 5 years and it depends upon the number of years which is chosen by the food operator. The cost of the license thus increases with the number of years applied for. Thus as per the FSSAI guidelines, you would need to apply for the renewal of the license within 30 days of the expiration of the existing one.
1. In order to get fssai License renewal ,application for fssai License renewal shall be made in FORM B to the concerned central Licensing authority or the state fssai Licensing authority, based on the eligibility criteria for the food business..
2. The application shall be accompanied by a self attested declaration in the specified format declaring that he conforms/shall conform to the Food Safety and Standards Act,Regulations/Bye Laws and shall follow the guidelines on Hygiene and Sanitary Practices provided under Schedule - 4 of the Registration and Licensing Regulations, along with the requisite documents and requisite license fee.
3. The Authorities for fssai License renewal will carry out inspection of the food business.
4. The fssai License renewal shall be issued by the concerned licensing authority within a period of 60 days.
5. If from the date of making the completed application, a fssai License renewal is not issued within 60 days or the applicant has not received any intimation in this regard the applicant may commence his food business without waiting for further communication.
Based on Annual Turnover a FBO has to either apply for simple registration in FORM A with FSSAI or apply for a License given by FSSAI in FORM B.
Why you should get FSSAI License?
There is a high degree of consumer confidence in safety & quality of food.
It helps to promote innovation in foods products.
It helps in removal of multiple regulations.
It facilitates trade without compromising consumer safety & a larger share.
What is FSSAI all about?
Decentralization of licensing for food products.
Simple and easy issue of license with time frame of 1 month.
This act assures safety of consumer and ensures full compensation to victim in case of injury or death.
Food Business Operator must be registered.
If Food Business Operator is operating in more than 1 state, one additional Central License for Head Office is necessary.
Importers are allowed to take one single central license at their Import Export Code address.
One presumption with various types of businesses is eligible for one registration only.
Food Business Operator must obey the rules and conditions of registration.
Our Mission is to make available supreme quality FSSAI Services to everyone in India at reasonable price.


All too often, patients do not see their dentists regularly. Instead, many people in the Gibsonia area figure if they don't have tooth pain or other noticeable problems it is safe and economical to skip regular preventative care visits. However, "crisis" dental visits often end up costing patients significantly more money and time away from work than if they had kept with their preventative care visits.
At Today's Dentistry Matthew D. LaNeve, D.D.S, we know that many dental problems do not have noticeable symptoms until they become serious issues. Small and painless cavities can take 3-4 years before they become painful. By then, you likely will need a root canal and crown to stop the decay.

Every October is investor education month in Canada. All the securities Commissions will remind investors to check the registration status of their "advisor". You should do that but be forewarned the process isn't easy. Be aware that the title "advisor" has no legal meaning – it won't match any of the registration categories. If you see they are under "strict supervision", it's time to change advisors.
Our concern is with those "advisors" that are registered and how senior investors can be exploited. Yes, they are required to follow IIROC and MFDA rules but the rules aren't as tight as you'd think and they aren't enforced to the necessary degree by the industry self-regulators. As Vanguard founder John Bogle has remarked "The scandal isn't what's illegal, it's what's legal".
Advisors are required to sell you suitable investments but they are NOT required to act in your best interests. Senior financial abuse and exploitation continues to be one of the most prevalent and "lucrative "enterprises in Canada.
Approximately 30-35 % of all complaints received by regulators involve seniors. I suspect the elderly statistics are distorted as it's my experience that the elderly are usually reluctant to formally complain for many reasons. Seniors often avoid publicity or litigation due to the embarrassment of having been bilked. They may unduly blame themselves for losses, are reluctant or unable to formulate a complaint or unaware that something is amiss.
A 2007 Canadian Securities Administrators Investor Study: Understanding the Social Impact of Investment Fraud, estimates that over one million adult Canadians have been the victim of investment fraud. The study shows it is a common occurrence in the lives of many Canadians, with almost one-in-20 having been victimized.
account churning and lately, reverse churning and pension commutation.
5. Be wary of inflated titles: A few advisors may use inflated titles to market themselves such as Vice President , Seniors Specialist and the like. Too often, these are meaningless. Don't be intimidated by the titles.
may even be available to individuals with no experience.
7. Avoid "Free lunch" financial seminars for seniors: These seminars may be carefully scripted sales presentations designed to prey upon seniors' fears. Some of these seminars may pitch investments that may be unsuitable or fraudulent.
8. Make sure that you clearly communicate your investment objectives to your advisor: Don't let him/her steer you into investments that are not in line with your investment objectives, risk profile or time horizon.
10. Take great care in filling out the NAAF/KYC form .Anything you declare can and will be used against you in the event of a complaint. Don't exaggerate investment experience or risk tolerance.
11. Never make payments to an advisor: When making an investment, use a method of payment that can easily be tracked. Make payments only to the registered dealer, NEVER to an individual.
12. Avoid any personal financial dealings with your advisor: You are not a bank so don't start lending out money. Avoid assigning POA or executorship to an advisor.
15. Contact your provincial securities regulator . Every province has a Commission/agency devoted to protecting people from financial abuse and fraud. Contact your provincial securities regulator if you suspect you've been treated badly or targeted as part of a financial scam.
And above all, read your account statements and trade confirmation slips. If something appears amiss, act quickly to get it resolved. Do NOT let problems accumulate.

Q: How to match precisely an expression finishing with 0 and another finishing with 0 followed by a number with grep? I have made a simulation in R with 125 scenarios, each simulated 100 times.
The scenarios are identified by fraction numbers, such as "075_05_0", "025_025_025", "0_05_1", where the results of each simulation is stored in a data frame.
I would now like to put these scenario-specific data frames in a nested list, where the first level of the list relates to the scenario, and the next level stores the 100 data frames of the given scenario.
I  tried to use the following code:

reslist  <- list()

for(i in seq_along(scenarios){
 reslist[[i]] <- mget(ls(pattern =  scenarios[i]))

}

where "scenarios" is a character vector containing the names of all the 125 scenarios.
This code works fine, except when the ending number of my string is 0 (e.g., 075_025_0). Whenever this is the case, the second level of my nested list includes also the data frames of all scenarios whose ending number starts with a 0 followed by a number (for example: 075_025_025, 075_025_05, 075_025_075).
I then tried to replace my code by using explicitly the "^" and "$" to match the start and end of my string, respectively, as follows:

reslist  <- list()

for(i in seq_along(scenarios){
 reslist[[i]] <- mget(ls(pattern =  grep("^",scenarios[i],"$",value=T)))

}

However, this leads to the same problem.
I need to assure that simulations from a scenario such as 075_025_025 (alternatively 075_025_05, 075_025_075) are stored in a separate list from the list of the scenario finishing with a 0 not followed by any other number (i.e., 075_025_0)
Is there any regular expression to match precisely a scenario finishing with 0 and another matching scenarios finishing with 0 followed by a number (_025, _05, _075)?
If you can recommend better way to approach my problem, it would be greatly appreciated.

A: We can use grep outside the ls.  Here, we read the question as the match the last chunk of numbers that starts with 0.  The pattern used will be match the _ followed by 0 and one or more digits (\\d+) at the end ($ of the string
reslist <- list()
for(i in seq_along(scenarios) {
      reslist[[i]] <- mget(grep("_0\\d+$",
                 ls(pattern = scenarios[i]), value = TRUE))
}

Lookout! Records: 1987-2012
Lookout! Records, the California-based independent record label that helped usher in the modern era of pop punk as we know it via such bands as Green Day and the Queers, has closed down after twenty-five years of operation. Somewhere, the laces of an anonymous teenager's black Converse high tops have become irreversibly knotted out of frustration and sadness.
Founded in 1987 by friends Larry Livermore and David Hayes, Lookout! Records quickly aligned itself with San Francisco's East Bay punk clique by issuing discs from that scene's giants (Crimpshrine, Operation Ivy, et al). The signing of a nascent trio named Green Day in 1988 would prove to the be label's wisest business decision; when that group exploded onto MTV seven years later, their first two efforts for Lookout! became an unexpected revenue goldmine. Of course, by that time, Lookout! Records had also cemented its reputation as the underground's premiere purveyor of pop punk, having released pivotal albums by such melodically-inclined outfits as Screeching Weasel, the Queers, and the Mr. T Experience.
Things behind the scenes at Lookout! were not always as upbeat as the records they pressed; a legal kerfuffle nearly broke out in the mid-'90s after Screeching Weasel front man Ben Foster began publicly taking Livermore's business ethics to task RE: the group's 60/40 contract (which in fact favored the band). At the brink of lawyering up, the label decided to simply re-sign Screeching Weasel to a contract where everything money-wise was clearly spelled out. Around the same time, Larry Livermore sold his stake in the company, although he would always remain the figure most closely associated with that iconic eyeball logo.
Livermore's departure marked the beginning of Lookout!'s decline as new management had apparent difficulty handling monies. Dodgy bookkeeping was the complaint most often leveled at the label as one flagship act after another jumped from Lookout! to competitors such as Asian Man and Fat Wreck Chords. Such maneuvering always hurt, but no blow proved bigger than Green Day's July 2005 decision to pull their first two albums from their former home over alleged unpaid royalties. Lookout! Records would never fully recover from the defection of their poster band (and only seven figure generator); just a year later, the label ceased issuing new releases to focus on selling their storied back catalog.
Lookout! Records was to me in the '90s what Stax was to kids in the '60s. It was just a goldmine for all who loved snot-nosed Ramonesy junk. They released the three best Queers albums (Beat Off, Love Songs For The Retarded, Don't Back Down), the two best Screeching Weasel albums (Boogadaboogadaboogada!, Anthem For a New Tomorrow), every Donnas album I'm embarrassed I don't own, the only Mr. T Experience album I wasn't embarrassed to own (Everyone's Entitled To Their Own Opinion), and the best-sounding thing Furious George ever recorded (the Goes Ape! EP). I can't think of another record label I ever consciously, or even subconsciously, pledged my allegiance to like that.
That said, it would be a stretch to say it's a shame Lookout! is finally folding after x amount of years. They had a nice little dynasty for probably three times longer than they thought they would. Also, if you're sitting on two Green Day records and you still can't manage to pay Pansy Division on time, well, your business license should probably be revoked anyway.
Then again, what do I know about running a record label? Diddly squat. I just snap up what they poop out. Who knows, maybe a couple of those Pansy Division albums cost several million clams to make.

Thanks for the backstory, I had no idea there was trouble in paradise for so long.
Larry Livermore says : March 8, 2013 at 1:06 am
There wasn't. The writer is misinformed. There was no problem with unpaid royalties prior to or during the Weasel events of 1996 and 1997. The issue was not that Screeching Weasel weren't being paid – they were; every penny, and always on time – but that Ben Weasel wanted to tear up his contract in favor of a new one that would give him more money and more favorable terms than all the other bands. That's what the legal battle was about. Go ask any of the other bands. Lookout paid its royalties like clockwork every three months; this was one of the reasons so many bands wanted to be on our label. In fact, we often paid our bands in advance if they needed money for touring or merchandise or living expenses; ironically, Screeching Weasel was the band that most frequently availed themselves of this privilege. Lookout, under its new owners, eventually did run into trouble keeping up with royalties, but not until many years later, largely as a result of some bad business decisions, one of those being the ever more hopeless attempt to placate the implacable Mr. Weasel.

Okay, I double-checked my source on this (that lengthy East Bay Express article by Rob Harvilla) and I see how I worded things in a sentence or two there to make it sound like the label had royalty and/or bookkeeping issues before Larry departed. This was not apparently the case and I've reworked my original piece to reflect that. Apologies!

Q: Почему не работает код? Эзотерический язык на питоне Не выводит резльтат(документация языка(не питон)) Например в script.ph содержится hackType pentagon;
connect pentagon;
hack;
С помощью рандома при выполнении команды "connect pentagon;" должно вывести: "Connected!" или "Ah! Cool protection!"
Потом с помощью великого рандома при выполнении команды должно выдать "HACKED THIS SITE" или "oh ................ FBI OPEN UP!"
В итоге ничего не выводится. Вопрос: почему? Ошибок змейка не выдает.
Сам код

A: Для двух-сложных команд, как hackType ppp, connect ppp, замените операторы проверки с == на startswith:
if code[i].startswith('hackType'):
