Open your window shades during cooler months to take advantage of natural heat from the sun.
Replace or clean furnace filters once a month. Dirty filters restrict airflow and increase energy use.
Insulate your water heater pipes. Using pipe insulation available from your local hardware store, insulate the first five feet of pipe coming out of the top of your water heater. If the whole length of exposed pipe between the water heater and the wall is less than five feet, insulate the full length.
Take advantage of extra daylight – make sure only the lights you need are turned on.
Reset your programmable thermostat to the coolest comfortable temperature to save on heating costs. Decrease the temperature when you go to bed or leave your home for the day.
Lower your water heater's maximum temperature to approximately 120 degrees. This will produce savings of 7-11% on water heating costs.
Replace regular light bulbs with energy efficient compact fluorescent lights (CFLs) or light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Switching one CFL can save $40 or more over the lifetime of the bulb and LED lights use at least 75% less energy than incandescent lighting.
Make sure your attic and basement are properly insulated. If your insulation is just level with or below your floor joists (i.e., you can easily see your joists), you should add more.
Leaks and drafts cause unnecessary energy use. Weatherize your home by caulking and weather-stripping all doors and windows. Also, use locks on your windows to make them tighter and draft resistant. According to the Department of Energy, if you reduce drafts in your home you can cut your energy bill by as much as 30%!
Keep shades and curtains open during the day on the south side of your home to prevent your heating unit from working twice as hard to warm the space.
Have your cooling system serviced once a year and regularly replace furnace filters. During the winter months when heating is used most frequently, change or clean furnace filters once a month.

Italy's government proposes to limit fixed-term job contracts
A new law reverses recent reforms and highlights the government's split personality
SO INGRAINED is the dream of the "posto fisso" in Italian culture, that the highest-grossing film of 2016 was a comedy about a man who stops at nothing to keep his permanent job in the country's public bureaucracy. A series of reforms in recent years has liberalised Italy's labour market. On July 2nd the government introduced legislation which changes tack.
The "dignity decree" aims to limit the prevalence of short-term job contracts and of firms shifting jobs abroad and simplifies some fiscal rules. (It also bans advertising of gambling, except for government-run lotteries). Businesses are livid; unions have offered mild praise. But the real impact on the job market may be less than its political effect.
The reform is the first big bit of legislation by the month-old government, an uneasy coalition between the anti-establishment Five Star Movement, led by Luigi Di Maio, and Matteo Salvini's right-wing League. It is the brainchild of Mr Di Maio, minister of economic development and labour, who hailed it as the "Waterloo of job insecurity". Mr Salvini, the interior minister, whose focus is on blaming immigrants for Italy's ills, skipped the cabinet meeting at which the law was approved. He instead attended Siena's Palio, a treacherous horse race around the medieval town's central piazza.
Confindustria, Italy's main business lobby, has decried the law, lamenting that firms are "paying the price of an endless electoral race". The bill reduces the maximum duration and number of renewals of short-term contracts, and increases their cost to employers. It also reintroduces an obligation on firms to justify their renewal. Besides that, it imposes fines on firms which, having benefited from state subsidies or other incentives, leave Italy within five years; and it simplifies minor aspects of the tax system.
Michel Martone, a professor at Rome's LUISS University and a former vice-minister of labour, suggests that the fiscal and anti-gambling reforms are laudable. But penalising firms that move and the use of fixed-term contracts—which account for around 15% of employment, in line with the European average—risks discouraging firms from hiring and investing in Italy. Unemployment stands at 10.7%, the lowest level since 2012 but still the third-highest rate in Europe; youth unemployment is at 31.9%. Rather than helping to reduce this, the legislation will merely lead to a rise in lawsuits, Mr Martone predicts.
Better, he says, is a government initiative to bring together unions and food-delivery companies to negotiate better rights for "riders". It is these workers in the gig-economy who need to be given more dignity, argues Vittorio De Luca, an employment lawyer.
Alberto Castelvecchi, also of LUISS, suggests that for all the rhetoric, the proposed reform does not touch the substance of the job market. "It is more political and tactical than economic and substantial," he notes. It is milder than the original version, and may still be modified by parliament, which must approve it within 60 days. On July 4th Mr Salvini said the law was "a good start, but parliament will make it even more efficient".
A month in, Messrs Di Maio and Salvini continue to focus on their own constituents rather than on governing together. This strategy will get harder in the autumn when discussion turns to the budget. Reconciling the government's split personality may then prove an endeavour more treacherous than the Palio.

The oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico should be a wake-up call to governments and energy companies, argues William Jackson, raising deep questions about our addiction to oil. Compensation may be paid for immediate damages - but what about the wider environmental harm?
The world changed one summer's day in 1858. In a field in Pennsylvania, in the United States, the world's first specially constructed deep well struck oil. The trickle of oil from the Earth, long extracted by humans in small amounts, became a torrent.
Relatively easy to find, extract, process, store and transport - and above all cheap - liquid oil quickly became our most important energy source to cook, heat, cool and transport things.
From plastics to supermarkets, and from globalised industry supply chains to the layout of our towns and cities, almost every aspect of human life has been radically altered over the past 150 years by oil.
Although cheap and plentiful oil has given many people choices and freedoms that never existed before, our addiction has been costly, measured in increased air and water pollution, rampant land use change, overharvesting of our seas, increasing greenhouse gas emissions and consequent climate change, acid rain and urban sprawl.
After 150 years, and with the Gulf of Mexico being the latest place where a major oil spill threatens nature and people in predictable and unpredictable ways, it is time to look again at the technologies and risks involved in getting the oil to which our societies are addicted.
The days of easy access to oil are over. Humans are inventing ever more ingenious ways to find and extract more difficult to access oil reserves in more extreme and generally more ecologically pristine regions.

William and Kate will miss Friday's service of thanksgiving for Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother and Princess Margaret as they enjoy a skiing holiday.
By Tim Walker 29 March 2012 • 7:28am

The Queen, the Duke of Edinburgh and other senior members of the Royal family will attend Friday's service of thanksgiving for Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother and Princess Margaret at St George's Chapel, Windsor. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will, though, be conspicuous by their absence.
The couple have caused surprise by not returning in time from their skiing holiday in Méribel with Michael and Carole Middleton. "The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are unable to attend the service," says a St James's Palace spokesman.
The service will mark the 10th anniversary of the deaths of Queen Elizabeth and Princess Margaret. Prince William and Kate flew to the French Alps after he returned from his tour of duty in the Falkland Islands.
Flintoff is bowled over by the wild
Bear Grylls, the Chief Scout, parted ways with the Discovery Channel last week over a "contractual dispute".Already, it seems, there may be a contender to fill the shoes of the Man vs Wild presenter.
Andrew "Freddie" Flintoff, the former England cricketer, is to present his own series on the channel, Freddie Into The Wild. "I never thought I'd get to do something like this," he tells me at a party at Somerset House in London. "Now, I've found something I'm into as much as playing cricket."
I trust Flintoff will not feel the need to check into hotels when he is supposedly out "roughing it", as Grylls did. Still, Flintoff does not profess to be a superman. "I didn't overcome my fear of the dark," he admits. "But I got to deal with it a little better. I'm still keeping the light on at home, for the kids."
Floella Benjamin, the former Play School presenter, who was elevated to the house of Lords by the Liberal Democrats, is returning to children's television.
"I'm working on a new children's film drama, called Sea of Tears," Baroness Benjamin tells Mandrake at the launch of HiBROW, a new internet platform for the performing and visual arts.
"It's based on my first novel about a girl from south London who moves back with her family to Barbados. It's about facing and triumphing over adversity and prejudice - subjects very close to my heart. It's early days but, fingers crossed, the BBC are going to pick it up. I'm so keen to encourage children to use their imagination."

El Campionat d'Escacs del Pakistani és un torneig d'escacs estatal del Pakistan per determinar el campió del país, organitzat per la Federació d'Escacs del Pakistan.

Anterior al 1970, varen tenir lloc quatre campionats al Pakistan de l'oest sense la participació de jugadors del Pakistan de l'est. Això va canviar el 1970 amb el fundació de la Federació Nacional d'Escacs del Pakistan, que per primer cop va incorporar jugadors i membres executius d'ambdues parts del Pakistan, i el campionat nacional d'aquell any va tenir lloc a Chittagong. El 1977 el nom de l'organització fou canviat per Federació d'Escacs del Pakistan. El primer campionat del Pakistan femení tingué lloc el 2001.

Rams vs Ravens on Monday Night Football
Rob Carr/Getty Images
LOS ANGELES -- Sean McVay and the Los Angeles Rams know what it's like to redefine how the NFL looks at offensive football, so they appreciate what Lamar Jackson is doing this season with the Baltimore Ravens.
The Rams aren't exactly looking forward to seeing the latest innovations in person Monday night when they welcome the team on the NFL's biggest surge to the Coliseum.
Well, most of the Rams aren't, anyway.
"Lamar, love him and know the type of person he is, so it's like the proud big bro watching him from afar, the success he's having," said Rams safety Eric Weddle, who played the past three seasons for Baltimore.
Jackson and the Ravens (8-2) get a national spotlight when they take on the Rams (6-4), whose attempt to stay in the NFC playoff race won't survive many more defeats. While Los Angeles has one of the NFL's most effective defenses in recent weeks, it hasn't seen anything like the multitalented Jackson, who presents innumerable challenges to any group.

GUYS DRINKING BEER
A Few Thoughts About Gender And What Beer Women "Should" Drink
In Beer News by Karl July 3, 2013
Do you know what beer women should drink?
Since this started a bunch of shit on the Tweets yesterday, I thought it demanded more than 140 characters at a time.
For those just joining us, at 2pm yesterday afternoon, the folks at Howells and Hood tweeted a link to a video clip that their beverage director, Ken Hendricks, participated in for a site called Women's Forum. The first line of that piece reads as follows:
Ladies, I know, beer can be so confusing!
Remember back when Mattel came out with Teen Talk Barbie and started a nationwide shitstorm because Barbie said stuff like "math class is tough"? This reads like the 2013 beer dork version of that kerfuffle. The piece/video goes on to explain that girls like fruity beers like lambics, as well as Belgian ales because they're "sweeter" and ciders because again fruit.
Despite egregious beer sins including calling hops "hoops" and some other various poor un-copyedited grammar errors, I'm not really here to shred the wording or even the beer choices specifically.
I am here to take issue with the message.
See, I'm not just a guy who drinks beer and writes about beer. I'm also a guy married to a girl who drinks beer. All kinds of beer. Mostly sours and saisons at the moment. For [deity's] sake, my wife was the one that got me into good beer in the first place, with gateway brews like her beloved Oberon — when we met I was downing Busch Light like it was going out of style.
Ryan is similarly married to a female who also likes beer. She likes IPAs and other hoppy beers. Two different people. Two different preferences. We like them, and they like beer. As far as we're concerned: end of story.
Our thesis statement today is this: Women can drink whatever the hell they want. Yesterday morning we would have thought this was an obvious statement, but apparently it bears repeating.
There is no specific style that pairs better with estrogen than it does with testosterone and there is no one beer that is specifically "for" women any more than there is any beer that's specifically "for" men. Women can drink strong beers, aggressive beers, bitter beers, angry beers, beers with demons on the label, beers named after metal bands, "lite" beers, fruity beers, beers that are good and beers that are bad. Any beer they want.
And why am I writing this?
Because maybe guys need to say it too. Yes, we have gotten shit for our choice of URL in the past, but we've always been of the mindset that "guys" is a pretty all-encompassing term at this point, and fairly gender-neutral. I'm not trying to be an Internet White Knight here to save womankind from the silly girls-talking-down-to-girls whatnot but I've always tried to be an ally where possible, and this seems like a good time to plant the flag and say hey — beer knows no gender, and never has, in our experience.
I think the thing that really stuck out for us was not so much the idea that "girls like these beers because sweet and fruity" as opposed to the tone of the whole thing, which seems to be: We girls sure are such little uneducated things, and don't know what beer is, and here are some girly beers because here's what probably fit traditional gender roles.
It's reinforced by exclamation-point-laden posts like "How to Find the Right Beer for You" ("…if you don't want to choose one yourself, have the waiter or waitress help you. Try something new!") and "Become a Beer Expert" ("Alcohol experts aren't just for wine-o's [sic]. There are some beer experts out there, too!").
Maybe we're hanging out with people that aren't in the target demo for WomenForum, but we know a whole bunch of kickass women who don't need the oh-gee-golly-aren't-we-silly-little-princesses attitude.
Perhaps it's best to close with the words from one of Chicago's leading brewers, who also happens to be female — Metropolitan Brewing's Tracy Hurst.
Dear Media: Please do stop trying to identify what a person will drink based on their genitals. Unless a drinking vessel requires the *actual use* of a woman's delicate flower or a man's joystick, please just stop. Just. Stop. – Signed, the broad who owns a brewery and drinks whatever the hell she wants.
Hear, hear.
Ladies, drink whatever you want. Guys, drink whatever you want. Pretty simple, huh?

The idea for the development of this emotionally appealing campaign for Pedigree was the call to adopt a dog. To attract as much attention as possible, the images communicate a surprising reversal of roles: the photos show lonely people whose lives would be a bit happier if they were "adopted" by a dog. The scenes in the photos, set in various interiors, vividly illustrate the dreary loneliness of the people. In combination with the headline and the logo, the message reveals itself to the viewer.

Students and teachers of the Central European University and their sympathizers protest in Budapest. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has signaled that he was willing to listen to the European Commission's observations on his controversial university law | Attila Kisbenedek/AFP via Getty Images
Orbán 'ready to discuss' university law with EU
Juncker tells Hungarian PM to change his university law, 'stop anti-Brussels slogans' and support the EU.
Updated 2/7/18, 12:13 PM CET
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán signaled at an EU summit on Saturday that he was willing to listen to the European Commission's observations on his controversial university law that has angered Brussels and Washington.
At a pre-summit meeting of leaders of the center-right European People's Party (EPP), which includes Orbán's increasingly nationalistic Fidesz party, Orbán said he would explore the Commission's recommendations on the law, seen by critics as a way to target George Soros-funded Central European University.
"Unlike the Polish government, Orbán wants to discuss," said Manfred Weber, who leads the EPP group in the European Parliament, referring to Poland's reluctance to comply with EU rules.
In a forcefully worded statement after the meeting, the EPP said it had asked Fidesz and Hungarian authorities to comply with the Commission's request, adding: "Prime Minister Orbán has reassured the EPP that Hungary will act accordingly."
The EPP said it would "not accept that any basic freedoms are restricted or rule of law is disregarded" and that "blatant anti-EU rhetoric" was unacceptable, citing Orbán's public consultation asking Hungarians how to deal with policy issues, which is titled "Let's stop Brussels."
The Commission stepped up the pressure on Orbán this week over his crackdown on the Central European University. It gave Budapest one month to make the case that its education bill complies with EU law — or face a fast-tracked court case.
Sources in the EPP said conservative leaders including European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker didn't ask Orbán's Fidesz to leave the EPP as many MEPs requested.

In talks that an EPP official described as "tough but fair," Juncker told Orbán he should change his university law, "stop anti-Brussels slogans and hold more pro-European speeches," the official said.
Rafał Trzaskowski, a Polish MP from the Civic Platform party who participated in the EPP meeting, said Orbán has shown before that "he is able to back down and change some of his decisions."
"The question is now whether he will follow what he says. Then, obviously, he can stay with us," Trzaskowski said.
Saturday's meeting became tense "when Orbán clearly said he will never accept Muslim migrants" in his country and asked for a debate on this issue at the EPP, the EPP official added. Last year, Hungarians rejected European Union migrant quotas in a referendum.

Cupra to reveal coupe-crossover as first standalone model
Currently reading: Cupra to reveal coupe-crossover as first standalone model
First Cupra model with bespoke styling will make its debut at Geneva motor show
Autocar's image of what the Cupra coupé-crossover could look like
by Lawrence Allan
Cupra will reveal its first standalone model, a coupé-SUV with bespoke styling, on 22 February ahead of the Geneva motor show.
Seat's new sister brand has released a single darkened teaser image of the rear of the concept car, showing a sculpted body that suggests the high-riding stance of a crossover with a sloping roofline. The machine also sports a distinctive LED light strip across the boot lid, which also features both the Cupra logo and the brand name spelt out.
Cupra says the new machine, which will be unveiled in an online event exactly one year since the brand was launched, will take "the high-performance vehicle to the next level" and offer "a unique driving experience."
Brand boss Wayne Griffiths added that the concept "is a synthesis of what Cupra stands for". It has been hinted that the car will showcase the future direction of the brand in terms of both design and technology.
The model, rumoured to be called Terramar, will be the first Cupra whose exterior design is a unique departure from Seat's range, with the aim to help the brand distinguish itself from its parent company.
It adapts the bodystyle of the 20V20 concept seen at Geneva in 2015, but with a radically different look distinguishing the model from other, similar-sized Volkswagen Group SUVs.
It will be wider and lower than Cupra's first model, the Ateca, with a sloping roofline, pronounced rear haunches and a front end design that takes inspiration from the Tarraco large SUV.
Autocar understands that the new SUV won't be totally new under the skin, instead being likely to adopt the engine and running gear of the Ateca. That means the familiar EA888 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine, possibly with more than today's 296bhp, mated to a variable four-wheel-drive system and a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox.
Cupra might also look to alter the car's chassis and suspension components beyond simple tuning revisions. The car appeared to sport a wider track in previous leaked shots, which would in theory improve body control.
Cupra plans to reach 30,000 sales per year in the next three to five years and will hire brand-specific staff.

5 Ways You're Screwing Up Irish Coffee
12.03.2016 Слава Ирландская кухня
Dale DeGroff identifies common pitfalls—and offers tips for making the cocktail the right way.
This is not supposed to be a tricky cocktail. The idea is simple: Mix coffee, whiskey, sugar and cream. But bartenders find a million ways to sabotage the drink. Cocktail expert Dale DeGroff, who's been making Irish Coffees for decades, explains what can go wrong, and why these nuances matter.
1. Your coffee is too strong—or you're adding too much of it.
«You don't ever want to use espresso. It has its own character, it's very intense and it's too big for the drink. You lose balance, and the whiskey, behind all that intensity. Use fresh beans that are roasted medium. They can be single-sourced beans like Colombian or they can be blends. The coffee absolutely must be sweetened because the cream is not. And without sweetness, the drink ceases to exist because it becomes a bitter mess. Also use no more than four ounces of coffee and an ounce and a half shot.»
2. The whiskey is too heavy.
«Companies are starting to reproduce Irish whiskey styles from the 19th century, which are bigger flavor-wise and often a single-malt. But when it comes to Irish coffee, a big pot-stilled, single-malt style isn't appropriate. A regular blend is fine. That's also why you don't want a 2 and ½ ounce shot of whiskey. The perfect blend is 1½ ounces of whiskey to 4 ounces of coffee. Yes, Jameson's normal bottling is perfect for this. Or Tullamore Dew or Clontarf.»
3. You're not adding properly frothy cream.
«You absolutely have to whip it. Because if you don't whip it, it will not float. I don't care if you pour it across the back of a big fat spoon, it ain't gonna float unless you whip it. Now you don't want to whip to the point where it peaks, because then it's gonna be a peak on top of the drink and it will look goofy. I want it to look like a Guinness—the black and white of a really well-poured Guinness after it's settled. That's the look. An absolute demarcation between black and white. Why not whipped cream? Because it's so full of air that within a minute it's nothing more than an oil slick on top of the drink. There's no there there.»
4. The glass is way too big.
«Some places serve the drink in a mug with a handle to hold onto because the glass can get hot when you first pour it. At home, you could use a nice 7- to 9-ounce white wine glass—as long as you have a stem to hold on, as long as it's not oversized. You want a glass that will force you to pour the right amount of coffee.»
5. Don't add nutmeg or any unnecessary spice.
«[Some people] add nutmeg to creamy drinks—like a Brandy Alexander—and they think it will be nice in an Irish Coffee. But it takes away from the drink because it pulls the drink into a seasonal slot; we're expecting Christmas [when we smell it]. It takes away from the beauty of the cream and the subtleties of the flavors of the drink, and it's a bully. It's me, me, me, you know?»
Irish Coffee by Dale DeGroff
4 oz coffee (hot)
1/2 oz demerara sugar syrup (2 parts demerara sugar to 1 part water, heated until the sugar dissolves)
1 1/2 oz premium Irish whiskey
Heavy cream, whipped lightly to remain pourable
Prepare the drink in an 8 oz stemmed glass. Combine the coffee, sugar syrup and Irish Whiskey, then top with cream to taste.

FCA US Announces Sales For Month Of February:
Ram Truck Brand Up 24%, Cherokee Hits Sales Record For February...
Robert S. Miller Send an email March 1, 2019
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA US) released their sales numbers for the month of February in the United States, today. It was no surprise that the Ram and Jeep® brands continue to break records, even despite a month of bitter weather across much of the key regions for the brands. However, overall the sales for the United States were down 2% over the same time period last year.
FCA US had 162,026 leave showroom floors for new homes, during the month. FCA US noted that some of that decrease was due to the Jeep brand sales, after benefiting from having the 2018 Jeep Wrangler (JK) and 2018 Jeep Wrangler (JL) models being in showrooms at the same time. But while Jeep overall sales were down for the month, the Jeep Cherokee (KL) had its February sales month ever.
The Ram Truck brand also had another record month as well. Ram Trucks had an increase of 24% over the same time period last year. If you remember, that was about the time that we started to see the all-new 2019 Ram 1500 hit showrooms. FCA US also stated that Heavy Duty pickup sales were also up. With the new 2019 Ram Heavy Duty models hitting showrooms now, Ram has put a lot of good incentives on the 2018 model year inventory.
"The overall industry is starting off slower due in part to weather, the U.S. government shutdown and concern over tax refunds," U.S. Head of Sales Reid Bigland said. "We still see a strong, stable economy and anticipate any lost winter sales will be made up in the spring. For us, the Ram brand was the standout in February, and Jeep Cherokee set a February record as well."
So let's take a look at the overall month, broke down by brand…
2019 Jeep Cherokee Latitude 4×4. (Jeep).
Jeep® Brand:
Despite sales for February being down 2% over the same time period last year, the Jeep brand was able to sell 67,075 vehicles in the United States. Leading the way for the brand, was the Jeep Grand Cherokee with 18,009 units sold for the month (up 3% over the previous February). Not too far behind was the Jeep Cherokee with 16,020 units (up 31% over the same time last year). The Jeep Wrangler and Wrangler Unlimited models accounted to 15,001 of the total Jeep sales total for the month (down 6% over last February). Compass had another solid month, with 12,063 units of the compact SUV leaving lots (down 25% over last February). The compact Renegade struggled in February, despite the release of the updated 2019 models. Only 5,909 Renegades left dealer showrooms for the month of February (down 28% over the same time last year). Jeep also sold 3 left over Jeep Patriot units in dealer inventory during the month.
The most interesting thing on the sales report was the addition of 70 units of the all-new 2020 Jeep Gladiator mid-size truck, sold during the month of February. We reached out to FCA US, asking about the sales of the Gladiator units and they told us that they were sales to FCA US employees. The vehicle will still be launched in the second quarter of this year.
2019 Ram 1500 North Edition. (Ram).
Ram Brand:
Sales rose 24% for the month of February for the Ram brand, with a sales total in the United States of 45,542. This marks the second consecutive month of being up 24% over the same time the previous year for the brand. Of course leading the way was the Ram Pickup lineup with 39,950 units sold during the month (up 20% over the same time last year). Ram also sold 4,632 of its Ram ProMaster vans during the month (which was up a whopping 107% over the same time last year). The Ram ProMaster City, did see a 20% decrease in sales over its total last February, with only 960 of the vans leaving lots.
2019 Dodge Journey Crossroad. (Dodge).
Dodge Brand:
The Dodge brand happened to sell 37,073 units for the month of February in the United States. However, that was down 8% over the same time period last year. Leading the way for the Dodge brand was the Dodge Grand Caravan with almost one-third of total sales for the brand with 12,521 units leaving dealer lots. The Dodge Journey was the second most popular Dodge vehicle sold during the month, with 8,258 units finding new homes (up 73% over the same time last year). The Dodge Charger was next with 6,547 units leaving showrooms (down 13% over last February's totals). Hot on it's heels was the Dodge Durango with 6,105 units of the performance SUV going home with customers (up 17% over last February). The Challenger despite having an all-wheel drive option for winter drivers, had a 40% decrease in sales over the same time last year with only 3,639 units leaving lots. Dealers were also to sell 3 leftover Dodge Darts from their inventories for the month.
2019 Chrysler 300S Sport Appearance Package. (Chrysler).
Chrysler Brand:
The Chrysler brand also had a disappointing month. The brand's overall sales fell 36% compared to February 2018. The Pacifica led the way with 7,854 of the minivans leaving dealers. That was down 32% over last year. The Chrysler 300 Series had a decrease as well, with only 2,508 vehicles finding new homes (down 44% over the previous year's numbers). Both vehicles did have better sales numbers than January. Chrysler dealers were able to sell 6 leftover Chrysler 200 Series models in dealer inventories during the month as well.
2019 Fiat 500X Trekking Plus. (FIAT USA).
Fiat Brand:
FCA US' Italian mainstream brand continues its decline in sales, despite several revised products in the 2019 model year lineup. The Fiat brand sold 616 units in United States for the month of February. That was down 50% over the same time last year. Leading the way was the Fiat 500X crossover, which revised 2019 models are just hitting showrooms. Only 219 of the Fiat 500X models left dealer lots during the month (down 55% over the same time last year). The Fiat 500 was the second best selling Fiat vehicle during the month, despite sales dropping 50% over the same time last year with a total of 207. The Fiat 124 Spider had 139 units of the sporty roadster leave lots during February (down 38% over the same time last year). While the Fiat 500L, struggled with a decrease of 57% over last February's sales with only 51 units leaving dealers.
2019 Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio. (Alfa Romeo).
Alfa Romeo Brand:
FCA US' premium performance lineup also seen a decrease during the month of February, with sales in the United States of 1,362 (down 13% over last February). Leading the way for the brand was the Alfa Romeo Stelvio SUV, which was up 1% over the same time period last year with 700 units. Not too far behind was the Giuila sedan with 646 units sold for the month of February (down 24% over the same time last year). While the Alfa 4C had 16 units leave dealer lots (down 20% over last February).
Overall, we are still seeing that value is driving a lot of the sales for models such as the Dodge Journey and Dodge Grand Caravan. Dodge's Grand Caravan continues to outsell the much more modern and luxurious Chrysler Pacifica, showing that customers want value over the latest product.

For some disputes, legal proceedings are not appropriate, especially in relationships that the parties wish to continue in the future. In such situations, the two parties can come to us for mediation.
With the guidance of the mediator, the parties themselves are led to find a joint solution that is satisfactory to both parties. The parties then enter into a 'settlement agreement' by which the problem is resolved, also from the legal standpoint.
When this has been achieved, there is nothing to stand in the way of future co-operation. Mediation is available for both family relationships and business relationships. One of our lawyers is a highly experienced mediator, accredited by the Netherlands Mediation Institute.
We always work in accordance with the regulations of this national Institute.
Parties can request the guidance of our mediator in contract negotiations and the creation of contracts.
You will then be assured that a contract actually contains what you wanted to agree.
This service is especially recommended for international contracts.

Harpy, Hero, Heretic: Hillary
Why she stokes our deepest fears and darkest hatreds
Illustration by Tim O'Brien
Daniel Edwards is that sculptor whose work includes a shiny dollop said to be the bronzed poop of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes' baby, the severed head of baseball legend Ted Williams, and a nude Britney Spears in a primal birth position. A few months ago, the Museum of Sex in Manhattan unveiled his latest work: a bust of Hillary Clinton. Cast in the heroic style of the 19th-century statesman found in any City Hall park, it showed the New York senator with a long, elegant neck and solemn expression above two perfectly round, youthful, barely covered breasts. I'd guess a 36B.
"It was a quote by Sharon Stone that triggered it," Edwards explained to me. Stone, an actress famous for exposing a different part of her anatomy, had recently expressed doubt that Hillary could become president because "a woman should be past her sexuality when she runs. Hillary still has sexual power, and I don't think people will accept that. It's too threatening."
Edwards says he wanted to imagine Hillary Clinton as president of the United States and created, therefore, a monumental image. "But that wasn't enough," he explains. "I had to make sure she was depicted as a woman, unmistakably a woman. The way I did that was to be more revealing with her breasts than is normally seen."
Edwards' version of Hillary's breasts is where it all gets interesting. He chose not to depict Hillary with bared breasts, in the classical style of Greek sculpture; his Hillary's bust is upheld by a bustier worthy of Victoria's Secret. "I didn't want the sculpture to be titillating or a piece of graphic realism," he explains. "It's more symbolic of womanhood and to reveal her as a woman."
Hillary's "womanhood" is in need of public revelation? What does that say about her? But, more curiously, what does it say about us that Hillary inspires this casual intimacy? Her life, her looks, her politics, her marriage—and now her breasts—are all daily grist at the nation's coffee shops, still, 15 years after she was introduced to America. According to one accounting, there are 17,000 websites devoted to Hillary Clinton. And there is really no aspect of our collective fears or furies that cannot be grafted onto her character. Did she refuse to meet with mothers of dead soldiers? Did she kill Vince Foster? Did she get two Black Panthers off on murder charges? Did she cause the Enron scandal? Despite their proven falseness, such accusations are routinely made because it's easy to mold the facts and fictions of Hillary's life into any kind of argument you like. Even her body has become a public landscape that most Americans feel quite comfortable trekking across in search of cultural clues about ourselves and our politics. Edwards' sculpture merely makes literal this national impulse.
It all began when the nation had regular debates about her hair, but now we're comfortable in our kitchens and on our talk shows presuming any damned thing we want to about her. Is she gay or straight, closet conservative or secret liberal, snarling she-wolf or one smart cookie baker? It isn't only her career as a public figure that's clay in our hands. No part of her life, however sacred, is off-limits. John McCain once got a lot of laughs cracking this joke: "Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly? Because her father is Janet Reno." Chelsea was still in high school at the time. In 2003 Americans happily participated in a CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll to determine whether Hillary should get a divorce. In the spring of 2006, the New York Times ran a front-page story that employed investigative journalism tactics to extrapolate the potential number of conjugal visits the Clintons' marital bed hosted each month. Using "interviews with some 50 people and a review of their respective activities," the author concluded: "Since the start of 2005, the Clintons have been together about 14 days a month on average, according to aides who reviewed the couple's schedules. Sometimes it is a full day of relaxing at home in Chappaqua; sometimes it is meeting up late at night…. Out of the last 73 weekends, they spent 51 together. The aides declined to provide the Clintons' private schedule."
Damn aides.
When Edwards fashioned Hillary into the image that he thought most telling, he was on to something. Hillary is way beyond something so banal as a politician. The details of her life are familiar enough; perhaps that's why all the profiles of her over the last 10 years have always seemed tedious and repetitive. It's how we shape those facts that's interesting. Hillary herself once said she had become some kind of Rorschach blot in which Americans see many things.
Almost every American has an opinion about Hillary. Consider her poll numbers. Hillary Clinton has favorables in the high 40s right now and unfavorables running about even. Her "no opinion" numbers are in the low single digits, approaching zero. Most politicians start with a huge swath of "no opinion" voters whom they can then try to convert. If Hillary runs, she will need to invent a whole new form of campaign strategy: She will need to flip voters who pretty much hate her.
Hillary-hating is such a national pastime, for both Democrats and Republicans, that it should be its own verb: "Hillarating." Typically, even her supporters make the case for her only after plowing through a lot of caveats, lessons learned, and after muttered contempt for some aspect of her person. Hillarating is not like normal political hating—opposing someone's ideology, for example. Loathing Hillary happens on multiple levels, ranging from her marital choices and fashion sense to her ambivalence on torture or support for a flag-burning amendment. And liberal feminists are as comfortable Hillarating as anyone else, perhaps more so.
"The source of the strong feelings goes all the way back to when we were introduced to her as Bill Clinton's copresident," says Nora Bredes, director of the Susan B. Anthony Center for Women's Leadership in Rochester, New York. After the health care defeat in 1993, Hillary retreated into being a wife and then a proper first lady before emerging again "as an international leader and then in the late '90s re-creating herself as a victim of his infidelity and then again stepping out as a candidate for the Senate," says Bredes. "People get uncomfortable when it's not a neat story. Is she a progressive feminist or a cautious moderate? People don't know exactly who she is, and so different reactions are almost invited."
Not since Richard Nixon has the body politic been treated to so many variations on the same person. "The New New Nixon" was introduced with such frequency once upon a time that it became shorthand for a kind of political marketing joke. Hillary has assumed that cultural niche, always inventing a new look and more "humanized" self for each situation. And in turn, we've seized upon various elements of her changeling character to shape, à la Daniel Edwards, our own private Hillarys. She is a Cosmo quiz of an enigma, so let's cut right to the answer key in the back pages and find out what kind of Hillary you see.
The Martha Stewart Hillary: For you, the New York senator is, as Newt Gingrich's mother once observed, "a bitch," or, as William Safire phrased it, "a congenital liar." You tend to relish the catty details that reveal her as a petty-minded overachiever, like when she peevishly denied her ghostwriters writing credit. You believed the 2003 rumor that Wesley Clark had been ordered into the campaign by some Clinton consigliere to serve as her stalking-horse. In the mid-1990s, you wanted to buy that Jerry Falwell tape alleging that she bedded and then killed Vince Foster, had him rolled up in a rug and dumped along the Potomac. You snarkily refer to her by the name that grates most on those who despise her, Hillary Rodham.
The Tammy Wynette Hillary: The famous invocation of the country-western singer happened during a 60 Minutes interview in 1992. Hillary defended her husband's philandering by saying, "I'm not sitting here some little woman, standing by my man like Tammy Wynette." And this is where it can get tricky. Most people forget Hillary's next line: "I'm sitting here because I love him." The cognitive dissonance is confusing, because, of course, that is the Tammy Wynette position ("And tell the world you love him / Keep giving all the love you can"). When she dissed Tammy, she left the impression that the real reason she was standing by Bill was ruthless desire for power. Then after getting into hot water over health care reform, she assumed the Tammy position, that of doggedly loyal wife. This was the Hillary who beamed at Bill's side and cut her hair in a prim, wifely fashion. Amid a flurry of sex scandals that would culminate in Monicagate, this Hillary allowed herself to be photographed in her one-piece bathing suit snogging with Bill on the beach—causing an entire nation to wince.
The Eleanor Roosevelt Hillary: This Hillary first emerged at her 1969 college graduation, when her commencement speech was considered so controversially feminist that it landed her in the pages of Life magazine. The speech sent Wellesley's president, Ruth Adams, into such a tizzy that, after spotting Hillary swimming, she had a campus security guard run off with her clothes to humiliate her. This is the Hillary who figured out, after the health care train wreck, how to be a good first lady, and quickly became the "Most Admired Woman in America" several years in a row. This Hillary had an office in the East Wing that handled the protocols of napkin folding, and an office in the West Wing that adroitly kept up her silent participation in the crucial political issues of the day.
The Dianne Feinstein Hillary: You see her as a phony centrist always triangulating toward the ideological middle, willing to betray her true liberal self for power.
The Barbara Boxer Hillary: You see her as a phony liberal, always playing to the amen chorus of the far left, willing to betray her true centrist self for power.
The Lisa Simpson Hillary: We're seeing of lot of this conscientious Hillary lately. When she ran for Senate, her critics said she was just running on name recognition. "But she was able to give milk prices to upstate New Yorkers," says Helen Thomas, the former UPI reporter who has covered the White House since John Kennedy. "Then, in the Senate, she acted like Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm, asking experienced Republican senators to 'teach me' how it all works." This is the Hillary who got straight A's; the law school graduate who in 1974 wowed the old D.C. pols on the Watergate Committee; the one who attempted to master health care in 1993; and who in 2000 visited Buffalo 26 times and earned its citizens' votes. This Hillary first appeared at age four when, according to her mom, the future senator confronted the neighborhood's meanest girl bully, knocked her down, and then exclaimed, "I can play with the boys now!"
The Diana Prince Hillary: Bill's wife is the secret identity of Wonder Woman. Is there anything she can't do? Even if you hate her, you admire her fundraising ability and her $8 million book advance. You hear that joke about Bill seeing Hillary chatting with an old boyfriend pumping gas at a filling station and Bill says, "Just think, if you'd married him, you could have been the wife of a gas station attendant," to which Hillary replies, "Bill, if I'd married him, he would have become the president"—and you think it's just good reporting.
The Lady Macbeth Hillary: You fixate on pictures of Hillary wearing big dark sunglasses, behind which she conspires to take over the world. Ruthless, conniving, calculating, icy, and manipulating, this Hillary crafted that phony post-Monica talking point—"I could hardly breathe"—as evidence of her "emotional side." This Hillary spooked her potential senatorial opponent K.T. McFarland, a former Pentagon official, into charging that she "had helicopters flying over my house in Southampton today taking pictures." This Hillary will abandon her principles for short-term political gain and will coldly undercut her oldest friends if need be—remember Peter and Marian Wright Edelman? This is the Hillary who, hours after hearing the truth about Monica, was in the solarium considering whether to help Bill's speechwriters draft his dodgy confession. This version of the senator is known by the name that elevates her into the pantheon of scheming one-named women such as Medea and Evita. She is, simply, Hillary.
It's not just that Hillary herself is seen in half a dozen ways, but that each variety of Hillary is embraced across the political spectrum. The word-association part of the Hillary Rorschach test fails as political litmus because everyone uses the same essential vocabulary. The language that one expects to hear from her right-wing critics—that she's untrustworthy, two-faced, opportunistic, and scheming with a hidden agenda—you are just as likely to hear from other women in power, feminists, and people on the left. You expect to read Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan calling her a "cynical leftist political operative" who sees "our country as a platform for her core ambitions." But you also get Cindy Sheehan comparing her to Rush Limbaugh; Susan Sarandon complaining, "What America is looking for is authentic people who want to go into public service because they believe strongly in something, not people who are trying to get elected"; and the late Wendy Wasserstein saying Hillary "has flip-flopped on so many issues of image that her behavior can justifiably be called erratic."
Some of the more common adjectives hurled at Hillary are familiar to any high-achieving female. And, sure, the woman known in high school as "Sister Frigidaire" faces all the glass-ceiling, woman-in-a-man's-job, underestimated, underpaid, overworked gender guff that also frustrates senators Olympia Snowe and Mary Landrieu. But what makes our reaction to her far more extreme?
More than any other public figure, Hillary forces us to acknowledge that the path to power for American women is not all that clear, more an odyssey than a march. The national trauma began when Hillary violated perceived roles of domesticity, says Betty Winfield, a University of Missouri professor who has been monitoring Hillary's public perception since the campaign of 1992. "People had a very preconceived idea about how a first lady was supposed to act, the image of a supportive wife but not too outspoken," says Winfield. "Hillary had no noblesse oblige cause, nothing coming from the domestic sphere like highway beautification or illiteracy or anti-drug use among teens. No, no. She was going to change the entire health care system for the whole country."
This didn't sit well, says Winfield, in part because "women who attain power or public recognition as satellites of great men are subject to a lot more criticism than women who arrive to the public arena on their own accomplishment." (In her day, Dolley Madison was accused of being lascivious, Jefferson's mistress, and trading sex for votes.) Of course, long before she was first lady, Hillary was already accomplished, having clawed her way up the law firm ladder to become the first female partner in Arkansas' oldest and most prestigious firm. The closest parallel at the time was…Marilyn Quayle. How quickly we all forget that Marilyn was a law partner with her husband in a Clintonesque firm called Quayle and Quayle. When Dan was named vice president in 1988, the governor of Indiana offered to appoint Marilyn to fill out his term in the U.S. Senate. Hillary merely took up the work of bushwhacking a path originally macheted by a woman now almost entirely forgotten.
Like Quayle, Hillary had her career sights aimed high, so how awkward was it that when she ascended to the West Wing in 1992, it was via the highest bedroom in the land. Certainly it explains why she uttered such mortifying lines as the classic: "If you vote for my husband, you get me; it's a two-for-one blue-plate special."
That original confusion about her role persists. Typically, says Winfield, women in power are seen as "either the domineering dowager or the scheming concubine." In the American psyche, Hillary is a two-for-one special, seen as both Election's Tracy Flick and a postmenopausal Margaret Thatcher power-Frau—despised for possessing sexuality and being devoid of it.
One of the first criticisms, says Edwards of his sculpture, "was that critics said the piece looked like 'Jimmy Carter with boobs.'" Edwards notes that the Internet is a kind of Dantean pit of Hillary imagery; he describes his work as an attempt to rescue her femininity from the sexual inferno in which he discovered her. "Before I came along, there were all these Photoshopped images of her," he says. "They'd take a lot of porn images and then splice her in. Oh my God…she's had to have seen them."
Most men, especially when women aren't around, will typically open up a conversation about Hillary in precisely these terms. Long before they get to her politics, they gossip about her comeliness, and the judgment is always harsh. Busting Hillary back down to mere dame, and a rejected one whose sexual allures fail, seems to be a necessary preamble to any discussion of her. In October, her Senate opponent, John Spencer, accused her of being ugly. (He now officially denies it.) The Daily News quoted him as claiming that Hillary had spent "millions of dollars" on plastic surgery. "You ever see a picture of her back then? Whew," Spencer said. "I don't know why Bill married her."
The point is, whether the real Hillary is brimming with sexuality or is entirely drained of it, any talk about her is always borne ceaselessly back to her intimacies, her appearance, her sexuality, her femininity. Why?
There are so many answers to that question, it's one of the reasons the country can't stop talking about her. But here is one: Hillary is an avatar of an existential dread skulking in the hearts of every couple who've tried to put together a life since the feminist revolution. This anxiety explains why the darkest question a liberal feminist can ask is: Why didn't she leave that son of a bitch? And it's why the coarsest question a conservative man can ask is: Who would do the bitch? Both point to deep fears that emerged alongside feminism, grounded, as every question since that revolution is, in the politics of the bedroom.
Hillary has come to embody a dark fear in the hearts of modern men: the wife who neglects the joys of the bedroom for her career. The middle years of marriage are hard enough (or so I have read), trying to keep the flame flickering amid the anxieties of bills, the call of career, the squall of little children. That's the age-old stuff. Add to that a novel stress on the guy: a new destructive Oedipal force right at his side, his wife. She wants a career equal to, if not better than, her husband's. Will she be more famous, make more money, hold more prestige?
And there's Hillary, pushing onward, to where? The presidency itself. She could possibly pull off what George W. Bush has attempted: surpassing a familial predecessor in achievement and esteem. As always, we imagine, Hillary is watching and learning, waiting her turn.
The flip side to Hillary's ambition evokes every career woman's greatest fear. How fragile is marriage? It can come apart as quickly as that girl delivering the pizza can snap her thong. And there is no amount of superachieving or hard work that can prevent this lurking humiliation. Just ask the other Hillary: As Martha Stewart ascended to the heights of fame, her husband, Andy, pulled a Bill and started screwing one of the young office assistants. It's absurd, sure. It's clichéd and pathetic. But, for the working wife, trying to build a career off the foundation of her marriage to even the nicest (smartest, richest, handsomest) man, her worst fear is that he'll stray in this, the most debasing of ways. It's a complete denial of her womanhood, an essential insult. It's why the kind of anger liberal women feel toward Hillary always circles back around to the issue of why she stayed in the marriage. Why didn't she take a stand against male grossness?
Instead, she toughed it out. And she gets no love from any side for it. To the right, she stayed not for any principle or for Chelsea but because she's a clawing shrew who will suffer any ignominy to attain power. To the left, she had a chance to take a stand for all the women who've been humiliated, and she didn't. (Bill, it should be noted, is largely forgiven, even revered, by left-leaning women.)
But the more body blows Hillary withstands from critics (or her husband), the stronger she can look. Who can forget when Rick Lazio marched across a stage in 2000, shoved a campaign pledge in her face, and tried to strong-arm her into signing it? Hillary coldly asked him to step away. It was the turning point of that campaign. That motherfucker. Suddenly female voters saw in Hillary every woman who has had to put up with demeaning crap from men. And a lot of male voters simply saw an underdog standing up and rallied to her side. She crushed Lazio by 12 points. In November, John Spencer, who will be remembered only for calling Hillary ugly, went down to a defeat three times as ignominious.
It's amazing to see just who can rush to Hillary's side when the issue becomes the bare-naked question of trying to bring down a high-achieving woman. During a discussion of snipes at Martha and Hillary on Tina Brown's TV show, Laura Ingraham, who once wrote a book called The Hillary Trap: Looking for Power in All the Wrong Places, confessed, "I've gone through that. I'm the right-wing info babe. That's the box I'm put in…. Powerful women carry a heavier burden…. No one likes to see a woman get too powerful, too fast, too smart."
Ask your friends if their fear and loathing of Hillary has anything to do with her being a woman, and you'll undoubtedly get a denial. That might be someone else's problem, but certainly not mine. But after a Lazio moment, or when John Edwards' wife told guests at a Ladies' Home Journal luncheon that her "choices" had made her "happier" and more "joyful" than Hillary, an epiphany can occur, as it did for The Nation's Katha Pollitt, who wrote, "If people keep making sexist attacks on Hillary Rodham Clinton, I may just have to vote for her. That means you, Elizabeth Edwards!" One has to wonder, especially considering the massive voter support she's received in two elections, if Hillary doesn't already have her own hidden vote: not just feminist columnists, but moderate and even Republican women who might exult in Hillarating until they step into the seclusion of the voting booth, where all the watercooler chitchat, pissy remarks, and catty complaints fall away to reveal a working woman getting harassed in a man's world—and they recognize what they see.
Hillary is an icon of our most transformative personal revolution. Racial integration was about bringing excluded people to a metaphorical and literal lunch counter that was already there. A public place. But the feminist revolution was about remaking the private world, the nest and resting place for all us careerists.
Hillary explained it in that notorious speech at Wellesley in 1969. She said, "But we also know that to be educated, the goal of it must be human liberation. A liberation enabling each of us to fulfill our capacity so as to be free to create within and around ourselves." She was in the first class of women's libbers, back when "the Working Woman" was more an idea than a reality and the future held infinite possibility. She left Wellesley fired up with the rhetoric of Steinem and Friedan. They had revealed to the world the new theory; she would show them how it worked in practice. Hillary is the real revolutionary: She had a career. She had a family. She had a husband with a career. They were both ambitious boomers—perhaps the most ambitious. They wanted not just good jobs but the very best of all possible jobs. And every step of the way she demanded and got—to use the old-school rhetoric—the freedom to choose.
That language pops up with Hillary from time to time, such as one curious moment during her first Senate campaign when men and women, liberals and conservatives, all still had inflamed opinions on whether she should stay in her marriage or not. Asked after a speech about her decision to remain with Bill, she said: "I fought all my life for women to make their own choices, in their personal and professional lives. I made mine."
How retro-1970s an answer is that? Hillary is still talking that talk and walking that walk, even though the revolution never really worked out as drafted. Those day care and health care support systems never arrived. Glass ceilings appeared, lower pay persisted. Feminism gained an angry militant opposition that now works to outlaw abortion state by state. Without widespread public support, the movement fell onto the shoulders of the individual women who could tough it out, women like Sister Frigidaire, the woman who could visit Buffalo 26 times. A lot of women just got tired. Many shrugged off the fight for full professional independence and happily went home to raise the kids. Feminists gamely tried to make the argument that their intention all along was to allow any of these fine choices to be made. But a lot of compromises were made all around. Now Gloria Steinem is like some oldest living Confederate widow occasionally showing up on TV to remind us what it was like, back in the day. Then, a certain ideal seemed inevitable—the feminist enjoying both the pleasures of motherhood and the Eisenhower-era man's life of full professional reward. Of those idealists, Hillary is arguably the only one still in our face.
In her Wellesley speech, she concluded with a poem, a portion of which eerily captures the trajectory of the woman she would become: "And the purpose of history is to provide a receptacle / For all those myths and oddments / Which oddly we have acquired / And from which we would become unburdened / To create a newer world / To transform the future into the present."
History's receptacle. And an entire nation has been filling it with our myths and oddments ever since: Hillary Clinton. Who soldiers on, even as the rest of America has backed off from 1970s-style feminism just a little (or a lot). Once upon a time, to use the old-school rhetoric again, people like her said, "I can have it all." She wholeheartedly believed it. She would like to have it all. And in two years, she just might get it.

Q: How to delete on swipe an item from Filtered list? [RecyclerView] I'm having an issue while trying to delete an item from a RecyclerView after i've searched for it by using SearchView, while if i don't use the SearchView and delete the item normally it's works fine.

A: Check the code in the getFilter() method. You can clearly see that the filter keeps the list of item inside a temp list because during filtering the main list is switched out. So when you delete/remove an item from the filtered list you delete from the temp list, not from the main list.
Though there could be a workaround using getFilter() and SearchView I would recommend using a custom searchview which makes your task far more simple.

A: Because You are removing the data from the list which you had populated with recylerView and you'r not removing the data from filtered list that why it showing..

public void removeItem(int position) {
        variantiConstructors.remove(position);
        mFilteredList .remove(position);
        notifyDataSetChanged();
    }

A: I was facing this issue long ago. But finally I've found the work around.
Here is the adapter class:
public class DataAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<DataAdapter.DataHolder> implements Filterable {

private List<DataModel> dataList;
private List<DataModel> dataListUnFilter;

private RecyclerListener mRecyclerListener;
private SearchFilter mSearchFilter;

private String mSearchTerm;

DataAdapter(List<DataModel> dataList) {
    this.dataList = dataList;
    this.dataListUnFilter = new ArrayList<>();
}

void setRecyclerListener(@NonNull RecyclerListener mRecyclerListener) {
    this.mRecyclerListener = mRecyclerListener;
}

@NonNull
@Override
public DataHolder onCreateViewHolder(@NonNull ViewGroup viewGroup, int i) {
    View v = LayoutInflater.from(viewGroup.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.data_model, viewGroup, false);
    return new DataHolder(v);
}

@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull DataHolder dataHolder, int i) {
    DataModel data = dataList.get(i);

    dataHolder.tvSubtitle.setText(data.getSubtitle());

    String title = data.getTitle();

    if (TextUtils.isEmpty(mSearchTerm)) {
        dataHolder.tvTitle.setText(title);
    } else {
        int startPos = title.toLowerCase().indexOf(mSearchTerm.toLowerCase());
        int endPos = startPos + mSearchTerm.length();

        if (startPos != -1) {
            Spannable spannable = new SpannableString(title);
            ColorStateList blueColor = new ColorStateList(new int[][]{new int[]{}}, new int[]{Color.BLUE});
            TextAppearanceSpan highlightText = new TextAppearanceSpan(null, Typeface.NORMAL, -1, blueColor, null);
            spannable.setSpan(highlightText, startPos, endPos, Spanned.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
            dataHolder.tvTitle.setText(spannable);
        } else {
            dataHolder.tvTitle.setText(title);
        }
    }
}

@Override

    return dataList.size();

// Filterable method
@Override

    if (mSearchFilter == null) {
        dataListUnFilter.clear();
        dataListUnFilter.addAll(this.dataList);
        mSearchFilter = new SearchFilter(dataListUnFilter);

When the item is being removed while searching, both ArrayLists i.e. ArrayList of Filter and ArrayList of Adapter have to be updated.

A: Delete item from the original list
for (int i=0;i<AppConstants.linkModelList.size();i++){
                        if (model.getID() == AppConstants.linkModelList.get(i).getID()){
                            AppConstants.linkModelList.remove(i);
                            filterLinkList = AppConstants.linkModelList;
                            holder.binding.expandable.setVisibility(View.GONE);
                            Toast.makeText(context, "Deleted successfully", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                            notifyDataSetChanged();
                            return;
                        }
