Low Head Pilot Station Maritime Museum
On the picturesque Low Head Peninsula at the mouth of the Tamar River is Australia's oldest pilot station, dating from 1806. It is a delightful collection of cottages in a beautiful setting. The Museum occupies the 1835 convict-built Pilots' Row, the oldest and largest building on the site. It tells stories of shipping on the Tamar River, and has an extensive display of relics from the days of sail and steam.
The museum is a delight for families, having something of interest for people of all ages. Children are encouraged to handle the ship's helm, operate the engine room telegraphs, sound the fog horn, ring the ship's bell and send messages in Morse Code. There is a collection of small craft in the boatshed (open on request) and other exhibits around the grounds.
Continue to the headland, past the old cable station to Australia's third oldest light station, with its grand lighthouse. Here is the only operating G-type fog horn in the Southern Hemisphere. It sounds at noon each Sunday.
Low Head is less than an hour from Launceston along the East Tamar Highway and only five kilometres from George Town which has museums, good accommodation and shopping facilities.

Toledo Flooring Contractor Employs Winning Business Model That Also Combats Labor Shortage
Gary Johnson thinks he has figured out the formula to a successful business model which also counters the construction industry-wide crisis of labor shortage. But it's not just conjecture. Johnson's INSTALL company, American Flooring & Interiors, a Toledo-based floorcovering and painting business with 40+ employees, counts a running list of noteworthy business achievements. For starters, American Flooring & Interiors has grown 500%+ in the last five years. Numbers like that have gained national attention.
A Look at the Numbers
The Initiative for a Competitive Inner City (ICIC) is a nonprofit research and strategy organization and the leading authority on U.S. inner city economies and the businesses that thrive there. Founded in 1994 through Harvard Business School, ICIC strengthens inner city economies by providing businesses, governments and investors with the most comprehensive and actionable information in the field about urban market opportunities.
Every year, with the support of partners Staples, Inc. and Chevron, ICIC identifies and supports the 100 fastest growing inner city companies. These firms represent the kind of innovative and diverse organizations that create significant economic growth in inner cities. Although based in the inner city, these companies derive more than half their revenues from regional, national and international sales. The Inner City 100 Companies produce jobs in their local communities, competitive advantage for their business partners and profits for their investors. Across all sectors, Inner City 100 firms are more productive than sector peers throughout the U.S., according to U.S. Census data.
In 2014, the study ranked American Flooring & Interiors #1 in the Construction industry for The Inner City's Fastest-Growing Companies. The same study also ranked American Flooring & Interiors #11 overall for The Inner City's Fastest Growing Companies.
So what is Johnson's secret? Simply put, he invests in the right people and then provides them with the right training and certification. When hiring installers, Johnson identifies core personality characteristics that he believes distinguishes the kind of person that will succeed: integrity, outstanding work ethic and a sense of loyalty. When he finds people with these invaluable characteristics, he then invests in their future knowing that it is in turn an investment in his company. He does so through providing the employee with access to the most superior training and certification program in the industry — INSTALL.
INSTALL, the International Standards and Training Alliance, joins together major flooring manufacturers, contractors and professional installers across the U.S. and Canada. Its comprehensive training and certification program is based on the direction and continued review of floorcovering mills and manufactures making it the most endorsed and recommended training programs in the industry.
"Our business philosophy is that nobody is more important than the next person. Whether you're the person delivering the materials to the job site to the person installing the flooring, if one person fails, we all fail," says Johnson. "It's very important to me that everyone who works for me is on board with that mission. By partnering with INSTALL for training, I have people at my disposal who are already on board with that philosophy. There's a built-in trust in the people I'm getting."
The personal and professional development that employees at American Flooring & Interiors receive through INSTALL is just one of the benefits Johnson sees to his business. He recognizes a significant advantage in his ability to handle larger contracts by gaining access to a pool of experienced, certified installers from across the country that he can pull in as needed to support any size contract or bid. Other firms without this access to labor can experience the full brunt of the industry-wide shortage of skilled labor when they have business opportunities but don't have the people to complete the work.
Johnson often relies on INSTALL's bank of trained professionals to support his team when they're bidding on a large scale project. This allows his relatively small company to be equipped to handle large multi-million dollar projects.
Johnson's business model of starting the right person and then building them up with the right training is a direct method for pulling new blood into the skilled labor force. Said Johnson, "If more floorcovering businesses adopted this model, using INSTALL as a key tool in developing new workers, the country would be on a better path to combatting this and any future skilled labor crises."

Supermarkets and Alcohol Permits
Two ballot questions to change the law regarding the sale of alcohol in supermarkets were recently filed with the State Attorney General. The Boston Herald reports that the MA Food Association is attempting to increase the total amount of permits that can be held by any one chain.
Currently, Massachusetts law restricts an individual or corporate entity to holding no more than three alcohol permits. This means that a supermarket chain can only sell alcohol from a maximum of three of its locations, regardless of how many individual stores are in the state. This generally explains why certain supermarkets sell beer and wine from only a few locations and not others. Supermarkets must choose which three stores will sell alcohol, which can create problems in store uniformity and customer expectations.
Supermarkets and many customers have been pushing for this law to be changed for years. Senate Bill 1851, if approved by the legislature, would increase the amount of licenses available to a supermarket chain from three to twenty. The bill would also restrict the number of licenses that could be held by a supermarket chain to one per town and two per city. The local licensing authorities would still have to approve a permit application for each location and all alcohol permit quotas would still apply.
It remains to be seen whether Attorney General Martha Coakley will certify either ballot question or whether the legislature will vote favorably on Senate Bill 1851. Needless to say, change could be coming to a supermarket near you but don't plan to drink-up just yet.

My wife Margaret likes Starbucks and, when I ask her what she likes about it, she can't quite put her finger on just what it is.
She tells me that the coffee is good (I don't drink coffee, so I wouldn't know) but I have friends who say that McDonald's coffee is even better.
She said, "it's the lighting and that they have windows."
"But Tim Hortons has more windows," I counter.
It's the "ambience," she says, "how you can just sit there and be at peace, how people are friendly, or that they change it up regularly."
Let me say that I know lots of people who don't like Starbucks coffee too. My father tells me the coffee is so strong that he has to dilute it with 50 per cent water. I have other friends who frown on the high cost of a drink or others who don't appreciate the fact that they won't find their friends sitting around there.
So what is it that Starbucks does that keeps their customers so loyal? And what could you learn from Starbucks that would make your business better?
6 a.m. run. I wasn't going to get a drink because we were heading home shortly. Alyson, one of the baristas whom my wife knew by name, but I didn't, came over to our table a couple minutes later with a drink in hand and hands it to me, telling me it's on the house.
Low and behold, the drink is "my drink," the special drink I order almost every time I go into a Starbucks (which I might add is fairly rarely compared to my wife, because I don't drink coffee). How many of our businesses would know enough about our customers to take care of their spouses? How many of our staff would go that extra mile to make visitors feel special or do something extra for someone outside of our core customers?
Alyson did exactly that at my local Starbucks and my gut feeling is that Starbucks supports their staff in going that extra mile.
2. Exclusive products: Where else can you buy a triple, venti, half-sweet, non-fat, Caramel Macchiato? And what does that even mean? Where else could I buy something like that? Not only does Starbucks have a level of quality that seems to exceed their competitors, they have names that spell exclusivity.
So often in business we try to have similar products to our competitors and we fail to differentiate ourselves as Starbucks does. When we fail to give unique reasons for our customers to buy from us, we reduce the long-term value of our business.
Don't just always do everything the same. Do something different.
3. Ambience: Whether you are going to meet a friend or read a book by yourself, Starbucks has something for you. No, it's not typically a place where you will find a group of retired seniors on a budget, but you will find a table full of mothers, a couple athletes, three business people, a mother and daughter, two friends and three students, all who want to relax while having a favourite drink. Having just the right lighting, colours and odours that allow your customers to relax when they are doing business with you goes a long way to ensuring that they keep coming back.
4. Pricing: I have never ever had anyone tell me that they thought Starbucks was cheap.
In fact, they are generally considered to be an expensive place to buy coffee. Yet every time I go to pick up my wife from Starbucks, the place is wall-to-wall people. So often in business we think we need to have the lowest prices to get more customers and, as a result, many businesses never make it. We are so focused on low prices that we forget that customers want so much more. Studies show that most customers are more interested in value than pricing, yet we often fail to understand what that value really is. It's obvious that Starbucks has figured out what that value is for their customers.
5. Systems: Whether it's opening or renovating a store, picking a location or serving their coffee, Starbucks revolves around having great systems that promote efficiency, quality and timelines. Having great systems ensures that the Starbucks coffee you order in Prince George is going to taste the same as the coffee you get in Heathrow Airport in London. Could you say the same for your business? That the product or service you deliver is going to be equally good each and every time? Having great systems in your business means that you have systems to ensure the proper hiring and training of baristas like Alyson who go over and above your customers' expectations.
After talking to Margaret, I am not sure I could pinpoint what it is that she likes about Starbucks, however I do know that Starbucks costs me money and that she tends to go back there regularly to get her fix.
Margaret seems happier if she has a Starbucks coffee in her hand, having come away talking to a barista like Alyson. Although some of the small local coffee shops can sometimes give her that feeling, as a husband, I know that a happy wife equals a happy life.

La liebre de piornal o de Castroviejo (Lepus castroviejoi) es una especie de mamífero lagomorfo de la familia Leporidae endémica de la Cordillera Cantábrica, en España.

Características
La liebre de piornal (llamada así porque uno de sus hábitats característicos lo constituyen las laderas montañosas cubiertas de piornos (Cytisus oromediterraneus) presenta un tamaño intermedio entre el de la liebre europea (Lepus europaeus), más corpulenta, y la liebre ibérica (Lepus granatensis), más pequeña. Mide de 49 a 52 centímetros de largo, a los que se suman alrededor de 8 de cola y pesa entre 2,6 y 3,2 kilos. La mayor parte del pelaje es pardo, más oscuro en el dorso, aunque tiene base blanca; en el vientre, parte trasera de la cola, "collar" y parte de la cara hasta los ojos es completamente blanco. La punta de las orejas es negra, así como la cara dorsal de la cola.

Distribución y conservación

Además de en los piornales, se la puede encontrar también en brezales y bosques de montaña situados entre los 1000 y 1900 metros de altitud. Su área de distribución mundial está restringida a la cordillera Cantábrica, donde la zona ocupada por la especie tiene unos 230 km de longitud por 25 a 40 km de anchura, desde la sierra de los Ancares, entre Lugo y León, hasta la sierra de Híjar, entre Cantabria y Palencia. Aunque es relativamente abundante en la mayor parte de su área de distribución, actualmente se encuentra en regresión en el extremo oriental de ésta, en los límites con las provincias de Cantabria y Palencia.

No se han hecho estudios de su población, aunque está considerada como una especie vulnerable debido a lo reducido de su área de extensión. A pesar de todo ello es una especie cinegética en León y Cantabria. Su caza está vedada desde hace años en Asturias, no obstante en ninguna provincia está protegida.

Cabinet Secretary Hunter Roberts spoke in favor of giving South Dakota agricultural producers and processors more protection against neighbors' nuisance…
Cabinet Secretary Hunter Roberts spoke in favor of giving South Dakota agricultural producers and processors more protection against neighbors' nuisance claims Tuesday. A House panel backed HB-1090.
SD House panel: Make anti-ag lawsuits more difficult
by: Bob Mercer
PIERRE, S.D. (KELO) — South Dakota agriculture producers and processors, as well as agrotourism businesses, would get greater protection against neighbors' nuisance claims under a proposal that's moving forward in the Legislature.
The House Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee voted 12-0 Tuesday to endorse HB-1090 that came from Governor Kristi Noem. Republican Rep. James Wangsness carried it for her.
CLICK HERE for the latest coverage of the 2023 South Dakota Legislative Session
The legislation heads to the House of Representatives for debate Thursday.
A long list of agricultural groups, including Farm Bureau and Farmers Union, sent lobbyists to speak in favor at the hearing Tuesday.
"It will provide protections. It will help us move forward with ag production in the state of South Dakota," said Brenda Forman, representing the S.D. Assn. of Cooperative and S.D. Dairy Producers.
Also supporting it was a member of the governor's office staff and Hunter Roberts, cabinet secretary for the state Department of Agriculture and Natural Resources. Lieutenant Governor Larry Rhoden watched from the back of the room.
No opponents testified against it. The committee's chairman, Republican Rep. Roger Chase, said Dakota Rural Action wanted to remotely speak against it but didn't meet the 24-hour notice necessary for remote testimony.
SD House changes county zoning law for Noem
The additional protections would apply to any producer or processor of crops, timber, livestock, swine, poultry, livestock products, swine products or poultry products, or any agrotourism activity.
One of the provisions would limit lawsuits to a property owner within one mile of the agricultural operation.
Another provision says an agricultural operation may not be held liable for nuisance unless the plaintiff proves by clear and convincing evidence that the claim arises out of conduct that did not comply with local, state, or federal environmental laws or regulations.
"Agriculture smells. It stinks. Has dust. There's times we live within it and we complain about the odors and smells we have in our own operations, and the dust we create," Chase said.
He continued, "People in urban areas don't understand the noise and the impacts of what happens in rural South Dakota, and we need to make sure that we protect the producers that are out there working day in and day out. And so sometimes bright lights and noise and traffic and diesel smell, at midnight, is still going, and those producers need to do what they got to do, to get everything done."
Republican Rep. Lynn Schneider called for the committee's endorsement of the bill. "Especially this fall, as dry as it was, when you're talking about combining, and a few times when we really had no wind, it was just pervasive, the dust in the air, miles and miles — just part of agriculture. I think it's a good bill," he said.
Schneider added, "You can't make this stuff perfect, but we need to be pro-active in this area, because the other side is constantly chipping away at ag."
Republican Rep. Marty Overweg said agriculture is South Dakota's number-one industry and a nuisance complaint can change a producer makes a living. "This is an important bill to have," he said.

Is there any specific value that the startup is going to get through funding?
Soujanya Consultant Asked on August 1, 2017 in Advice.
Getting funding also means that your startup has been validated by a set of experienced people. This, in turn, adds a significant trust factor that helps acquire customers.
This is apart from the monetary help to your startup with which you can expand, market, hire, and become more successful.
Palash Bagchi Consultant Answered on August 1, 2017.


If you are looking for a career that lets you impact the field of education without teaching, you might consider the types of jobs available in curriculum development. Whenever a new standard is introduced into the national, state or even local school systems, curriculum must be brought into alignment with it. That calls for people who understand different learning styles as well as teaching methods, are able to visualize concepts and, most importantly, to communicate those concepts with teams that create new materials. Learning does not just occur in schools and universities; corporations teach employees, the military instructs service people and there are many online courses available to adult learners. That means that curriculum development jobs are available in almost every sector of society.
According to the Glossary of Educational Reform, the term "curriculum" can be used in the broad sense of all educational materials, or in the restricted sense of individual components. It includes "lessons and academic concepts taught in a school or a specific course or program." It also encompasses the "knowledge and skills students are expected to learn, learning standards and objectives, units and lessons instructors use, assignments and projects given to students, books, materials, videos, presentations and readings used in a course and the tests that are used to assess learning." A developer is a person who uses his or her knowledge of styles of learning, specific learning populations, such as adults or special learners, technology and other factors to create new information delivery systems or to improve existing ones.
Professionals in curriculum development, in general, must be able to analyze existing materials and factors impacting learning. They must have a sense of design and understand how visuals and things like videos work to help people learn. They must be able to select the appropriate delivery methods, or at least to understand why a specific delivery method works as well. In addition, curriculum specialists should know how curriculum is formulated and assessed, even if they are not directly involved in the creation of materials. That is because some curriculum developers work in marketing and sales of programs.
Director of Learning Commons. This job is offered by a university. The professional oversees the materials and methods used to tutor students at a university learning center. He or she works to integrate technology into tutoring, and to bring curriculum to a level that is easily understood to help students achieve academic success outside of the classroom.
Instructor/ Curriculum Director. This is a corporate job that involves developing or overseeing the creation of material used in professional development, and presenting or supervising the presentation of the materials. The applicant for the job must have a grasp of how adults learn.
National Curriculum Specialist. This is a position offered by a nationally-recognized educational materials manufacturer. It involves building relationships with clients to problem solve and assess their curriculum needs. The assessment is then used to recommend existing materials or to set parameters for the development of new materials to meet the school needs. In other words, it is primarily a sales and marketing position that demands an understanding of curriculum development.
Customer Experience Learning and Development Manager. This is a corporate position within a national sporting goods retail chain. The job entails developing training materials that will align employees with the company goals and objectives.
These jobs are representative of the scope of positions available. Universities employ curriculum developers to modernize program curriculum; school districts sometimes hire them to create unique learning materials. Governmental agencies use the professionals on teams of educators that adopt new standards for learning. Whether you want to work directly with teachers, or in a marketing and business environment, there are many types of jobs in curriculum development.

Hero Inventor Patents Device To Keep Your Balls From Touching The Toilet
#Inventions
by Douglas Charles October 1, 2015 2:36 pm
When I first read this story about a man who created an invention to keep saggy balls from touching the toilet bowl I had to check around to see if it was real.
Turns out that it is, and for all you saggy-nutted men of the world, you now have a new hero and is name is Vladimir Laurent.
The Coral Springs insurance executive received a patent Tuesday for a device meant to prevent men's genitalia from touching the bottom of the toilet bowl. Laurent is now the proud holder of U.S. Patent # 9,145,667 B1, which protects the intellectual property for a "toilet sanitary shield for male genitalia." According to the anatomically, er, correct drawings submitted with the patent application, the device is basically a plastic cup that holds hanging body parts up and away from the bottom of a toilet bowl when squatting. The cup is attached to a suction mechanism that keeps it in place and can rotate through the clever use of a ball-and-socket joint.
"It's a hygienic product," Laurent told the South Florida Business Journal in an exclusive interview. "It's a home product and it's designed for a specific need, for something that I felt was needed, personally."
Laurent says he and other partners have invested between $25,000 and $30,000 on developing the product, and that it does have real life applications in the medical field.
There's even a picture of the product, uh, in action…
Laurent says that he's taken some of his samples to hospitals and that they have "shown interest."
And now that he has his patent he plans on producing an initial run of 24,000 of these devices he calls "The Shield." He plans on selling them at 90 cents a piece, but you'll have to buy them in bulk.
So is this something you think needed inventing? Myself I have never had an issue with my nuts hitting the toilet bowl, but maybe I'm in the minority? Let me know.

May 22, 2017 Benj B.
A few weeks ago, this random girl stopped me and told me that she liked how my clothes fit. I think I know what she meant, but it struck me as an odd thing to receive a compliment for. She likely told me this because 90% of the guys I see Uptown every day are wearing clothes that do not fit correctly. I occasionally see clothes that are too small, but the majority of what I see are clothes that are too big. Now I am a tall guy, 6'4″ to be exact, and I wear a medium shirt. You would think I wear a large or XL being that tall, but I don't. Medium. All day long. So first things first, learn what size you wear and buy that size. Be honest with yourself. Just because you wore a large in high school does not mean that is what you wear now. Wearing clothes that fit is a quick, easy way to make yourself look 100% better. Second thing. If you don't have a tailor or alterations person, get to know one. My go-to in Charlotte is Myers Park Tailors. They have touched every suit, jacket, pant, and shirt that I own. A good tailor can make a $300 suit look like a $1,000 suit. And contrastingly, a very expensive suit not properly tailored will look extremely sloppy. Pay attention to fit. Please.
So let's forget about clothes for a second, and just think about finding the right fit in life. This applies to a number of categories including relationships, career, where you live, and so on. Finding the right fit can involve some trial and error and/or may take some time, but when you find it, the result can be fantastic. For example, I played soccer in college, and for a variety of reasons decided not to play my senior season. It can best be described that it was no longer a good fit for me. It was an extremely tough decision that I thought about for months on end. However, that decision opened up the door for me to continue playing elsewhere in graduate school, which ended up being one of the best experiences of my life. Literally the perfect fit. Another example revolves around finding the right place to live. I have wanted to live in the big city for as long as I can remember. I love the skyscrapers, the sports teams, the restaurants, and all of the action. 10 years ago, my wife and I lived in a rural area, which was lovely, but didn't have everything we were looking for. We then moved to Charlotte about 15 minutes from Uptown. Again, it was lovely, but didn't have exactly what we were looking for. So about a year ago, we finally found it: the perfect lot in the perfect location where we built the perfect house. I know life can be complicated and involves a certain amount of compromise, but you also have to be willing to pursue the things that fit who you are and what you are looking for in life.
When I was in my teens and twenties, I would oftentimes buy designer clothes that were on major sale, even if they weren't exactly the right size. I thought, "it doesn't exactly fit, but who cares, it is X designer." Big mistake. I have learned that one of the most important things about presenting yourself is wearing clothes that fit. It doesn't matter if you wear $15 shirts from TJ Maxx, high fashion designers, or somewhere in between. Make sure it fits. If you are feeling a little inspired by reading this, I challenge you to go to your closet with a trash bag and fill it up with things that don't fit and will likely never fit. Take that bag to Goodwill and you will be accomplishing two things at once: giving someone that really needs them the opportunity to buy these clothes for a few bucks, and not tempting yourself to continue wearing things that don't fit. While you are doing that exercise, turn on some tunes and think about if the things you are doing in your life and people you are surrounding yourself with are good fits for you. If so, fantastic. If not, give it some real thought and consider doing something about it.
Wonderful Blog!! It made me think about something's myself!!

Georgia estimated the loss from the Russian tourist traffic
In connection with the flight ban imposed by the Russian authorities, the tourist flow from Russia to Georgia will be reduced by 1 million tourists, which will significantly affect the economy of the Republic. This was reported by the head of the National Tourism Administration Mariam Kvrivishvili.
"In 2018, 1.4 million tourists from Russia visited Georgia, and revenues of the tourism sector of Georgia from the Russian side amounted to 2 billion lari. In 2019, we expected 1.7 million tourists and 2.5 billion lari (more than $ 886 million). Thus, according to our forecasts, by the end of the year we will lose about 1 million tourists from the Russian Federation and lose up to 2 billion lari," she said.
In addition, the National Administration also noted that the majority of Russians (80% of the 540 thousand visits) get to Georgia by air. Mariam Kvrivishvili added that they try to minimize such losses and are looking for new markets.
On June 21, 2019, the Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree "On certain measures to ensure the national security of the Russian Federation and protect citizens of the Russian Federation from criminal and other unlawful actions", which prohibits Russian airlines to fly from Russia to Georgia. Later the restrictions spread to Georgian air carriers. In turn, tour operators and travel agencies were also recommended to refrain from selling tours to Georgia.

The Waldorf Astoria auction's most valuable lots, plus some oddities
Thursday, October 15th, 2020 at Life & Art
Decor from New York's iconic luxury hotel is on the block for collectors of a very specific taste
By HANNAH ELLIOTT
The Indo Peshawar Palace Carpet has a Sultanabad design in navy, rust and cream
JUST two days remain until Oct 17, when the Waldorf Astoria Hotel auction will end. It may take about that long to comb through the more than 80,000 items offered in the first-ever fire sale of one of New York's — and the world's — most prestigious hotels.
After announcing a years-long renovation in 2017, Park Avenue's landmark venue will be selling classical baroque and rococo French furniture from the Windsor Suite, the Cole Porter Suite, the Winston Churchill Suite and the Marilyn Monroe suite, among others.
Kaminski, which has held estate sales for Oprah and for Martha Stewart, is leading the auction, which started online on Oct 3. There's something for everyone, provided everyone's taste encompasses crystal chandeliers, porcelain eggs, brass sconces, Barbizon-style chairs, leather-bound books and old photographs of celebrities, including Ella Fitzgerald, Conrad Hilton, Buddy Hackett, Gloria Vanderbilt, Elizabeth Taylor and the Shah of Iran.
Plenty of the Waldorf haul is estimated in the thousands of dollars — but hundreds of notable lots could possibly be had for less than US$1,000 (RM4,150). (A pair of pug pillows, perhaps?) There's so much inventory it took a team of a dozen movers six weeks to stage it all in a mall 40 miles (64km) outside Boston.
Here are 10 of the most intriguing items up for sale.
Cartier Electric Clock
Lot No: 1,633.
Notes: Straight from the Presidential Suite, which hosted 16 presidents, the electric clock comes carved in burl walnut and measures 87 inches by 18.5 inches by 9 inches. It was made by hand in France.
Estimate: US$1,500-US$2,500.
Straight from the Presidential Suite, the Cartier electric clock was made by hand in France
Steinway & Sons Baby Grand Piano
Lot No: 695.
Notes: The Steinway & Sons black ebony baby grand piano comes from the Saudi Arabian suite. It comes with the highly desirable Model M Steinway & Sons New York label and measures 38 by 67 by 57 inches.
Estimate: US$5,000-US$8,000. (The current bid is US$22,065.)
Yamaha Conservatory Baby Grand Piano
Notes: Can't bring yourself to ante up for the Steinway? Consider the 72-inch Yamaha instead. It's from the 30th Floor Waldorf Tower suites and comes in black, with a small bench.
Estimate: US$8,000-US$17,000.
Indo Peshawar Palace Carpet
Notes: With a Sultanabad design in navy, rust and cream, the carpet measures nearly 14ft wide by 19ft long.
Portrait of a Dog
Notes: An oil on canvas painting of an old- fashioned King Charles Spaniel next to a tree — one of the more distinctive paintings on offer.
Estimate: US$600-US$1,200.
A dark, wooden 4-panel folding screen with a parrot and jungle motif
Still Life of Fruit and Flowers
Notes: Oil on canvas, one of the better examples of the myriad oil paintings of flowers and food offered.
Exotic Folding Screen
Notes: A dark, wooden four-panel folding screen with a parrot and jungle motif; the panels are 18 inches wide.
Estimate: US$200-US$300.
Lot No: 9.
Notes: From the Marilyn Monroe Suite, the bevelled mirror comes embossed in black, with gold trim and ribbon detail. It measures 38 inches by 30 inches.
Estimate: US$100-US$150. (The current bid is US$480.)
Pink Chair with Ottoman
Lot No: 11.
Notes: Covered in blush-pink silk, this scalloped chair with rounded back comes with a large, rectangular ottoman and a lumbar pillow with cream lace detail. From the Marilyn Monroe suite.
Wicker Carriage Chest
Notes: Direct from the Winston Churchill suite, it comes with travel labels, side handles and metal clasps for further security. The dimensions measure 25 inches by 24 inches by 23 inches.
Estimate: US$300-US$600. — Bloomberg

Kerch is a city in the Crimea on the Kerch Peninsula, standing on the shores of the Kerch Strait. Kerch is one of the oldest cities in the world. Its territory is full of historical and architectural monuments belonging to different eras and cultures.
In the summer, due to its location on the shores of the Black Sea and the Azov Sea, Kerch attracts tourists from the countries of the former Soviet Union.
Chersonese was a city-state, founded by the ancient Greeks in the south-west coast of the Crimea. At present, the ruins of the city are located in Gagarin district of Sevastopol.
For two thousand years, Chersonese was a major political, economic and cultural center of the northern Black Sea region. During the years of Soviet power, Chersonese Historical and Archaeological Reserve became one of the largest archaeological centers.

You and your liver are invited to this health-check roadshow in Derby city centre
Derby has one of the highest rates of hospital admissions for liver disease in the country
Derby people will get a chance to assess their risk of getting liver disease next week.
The British Liver Trust's Love Your Liver event in The Spot, St Peter's Street, Derby, will offer free advice, screening and scans to people most at risk.
Those passing through the city centre on Monday, October 1, between 10am and 4pm, will also be able to find out what preventative measures they can take to keep their liver healthy.
British Liver Trust chief executive Judi Rhys said: "One in three of us are at risk of getting liver disease.
"It is a silent killer and people often don't realise they have a problem until it is too late.

"Although the liver is remarkably resilient, if left until symptoms appear, liver damage is often irreversible.
"Approximately 20% of the people we scan need to go and have further checks.
"The Love Your Liver roadshow in Derby is a great opportunity for people to find out their risk of liver disease and the first one hundred people to attend will receive a free non-invasive scan."
The roadshow comprises of a mobile unit where people can take a free online screening test and find out if they are at risk.

For some reason, you will find fairy tale characters (except of Nutcrackers and several dwarves) only sporadically during Mannlzeug. But our Cinderella takes care of something that is very important for the Erzgebirgian Christmas, namely lentils. In many families they are one of the nine parts of the Neinerlaa. The Erzgebirgians say in the next year they will bring coins into the house (other families eat for this purpose millet). Like Cinderella, we have something to sort in our puzzle.
There are three forms (triangle, circle, square) in three colors (red, blue, yellow). Place in each row and column three of the colored forms, so that all forms are different, but have the same color or the same form. The three border forms say, that in this column or row the forms have to be the same.

Home/Herbal products/Libidofem Capsule
Libidofem Capsule
Pharmaceutical form: 1000 mg capsule
Ingredients: Root extract of Maca (Lepidium meyenii), Root extract of Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), Root extract of Eleuthero (Eleutherococcus senticosus), Root extract of (Rhodiola rosea ) standardized to contain 2/72 mg total fatty acids of Maca.
Therapeutic benefits: Increased sexual desire, sexual stimulation, Improve arousal and orgasm in women
Recommendations: 2 capsules daily, preferably 1 capsule twice daily with meals. If a more heightened effect is desired, take up to 4 capsules daily.
Maca: maca is an adaptogenic plant. Adaptogens generally support the body in dealing with physiological, biochemical and
psychological stress factors, including changes that occur during the perimenopausal and postmenopausal years. Australian research involving perimenopausal and postmenopausal women has revealed that a concentrated maca preparation stimulates the body's own production of oestrogens and lowers the concentrations of stress hormones, such as cortisol and the adrenocorticotropic hormone. It is worth noting that maca does not contain oestrogens or other hormones, and can therefore be a safe alternative to hormone replacement therapy. It has been suggested that the mechanism of action is that the plant sterols that are present may have a stimulating effect on the hypothalamus, hypophysis, adrenal glands and ovaries. Other endocrine glands that are modulated by maca are the thyroid gland and the pineal gland. Because of the adaptogenic properties and regulating function of maca on the endocrine glands, it is an important candidate for the holistic treatment of perimenopausal and postmenopausal symptoms. Another favourable effect of maca is that it can have a beneficial effect on bone density. Research involving animals has revealed that an extract of maca is effective in the prevention of osteoporosis when the production of oestrogen ceases, and that it can improve bone density.
Low oestrogen levels in post-menopausal women is one of the causes of osteoporosis.
Maca seems to have a normalising effect on the hormonal imbalance. Based on traditional use and by maca being prescribed by doctors who specialise in complementary medicine, it has been found that this can relieve the cramps, bloated feeling, headache and the aforementioned symptoms.
Many sexual problems relate to a lack of sex drive in both men and women or erectile disorders in men. Research has shown that maca can possibly improve sexual functioning in men and women. Animal studies involving rats and mice have shown that maca boosts libido. Furthermore, after taking maca, increased androgen-like effects were seen in rats. Maca contains a relatively high concentration of amino acids, such as tyrosine and phenylalanine which are precursors of neurotransmitters and also determine sexual functioning, and also arginine that plays a role in the formation of nitric oxide, which combats impotence in men.
Ashwagandha: Research has shown that an extract of ashwagandha increase lipids metabolism. This plant increases the production of antibodies and has a significant activity in controlling the physical and chemical stresses. Also, the extract of this plant, by creating the effect of iron ions rejuvenation, can produce antioxidants effects and increase body iron. Ashwagandha improves short-term memory and treatment of amnesia disorders. It also increases significantly the concentration of blood hormones, the number of red blood cells, the number of white blood cells and platelets.
This extract may induce the synthesis of nitric oxide synthase expression, probably by acting at the transcriptional level, and the increased nitric oxide production.
Eleutro: Extracts of the roots have an adaptogenic effect
that produces a non-specific increase in the body's defence against exogenous stress factors and noxious chemicals. The roots also stimulate the immune system, and promote an overall improvement in physical and mental performance.
An increase in the resistance of rats to adverse environmental condition such as stress, inactivity, or chemicals
was observed after oral administration of a 33% ethanol extract of the roots. The antistress or adaptogenic effects of Radix Eleutherococci are produced through metabolic regulation of energy, nucleic acids and proteins of the
tissues. The root extracts increase the formation of glucose-6-phosphate, which in turn decreases the competition between the different pathways of its utilization. The plant root reduces blood sugar and subsequently increases glycogen synthesis and high energy phosphate compounds. Research shows that the plant reduces stress, increases libido and alleviates digestive disorders. Eleutro also improves the function of white blood cells and improves the body's ability to fight infection.
Rhodiola: The systematic study of the pharmacological effects of R. rosea, begun in 1965, found that small and medium doses had a simulating effect. In contrast, larger doses were found to have more sedative effects. Small doses increased the bioelectrical activity of the brain, presumably by direct effects on the brainstem ascending and descending reticular formation. Further studies showed that medium range doses, unlike tranquilizers, enhanced the development of conditioned avoidance reflexes in rats and facilitated learning based on emotionally positive reinforcement. Overall, in small and medium doses, R. rosea stimulated norepinephrine (NE), dopamine (DA), serotonin (5-HT), and nicotinic cholinergic effects in the central nervous system (CNS). R. rosea may affect emotional tone by influencing neurotransmitter monoamine levels in nerve tracts involved in the regulation of mood, anxiety, and emotion in the amygdala, hippocampus, hypothalamus, and midbrain. The stimulation of nicotinic cholinergic activity in the emotional circuits of the limbic system may also contribute to these effects. Alterations in monoamine levels underlie this complex spectrum of psychotropic activity:
stimulating, tranquilizing, anti-stress, and antidepressant.
roseacan help patients with depressive syndromes, mental and physical fatigue, memory loss and cognitive dysfunction from a variety of causes, sexual dysfunction, and menopausal-related disorders. A number of studies have shown that R. roseaincreased physical work capacity and dramatically shortened the recovery time between bouts of high-intensity exercise. Athletes given R. rosea had statistically significant increased shooting accuracy, less arm tremor and better coordination. R. rosea improved recovery time, strength, endurance, cardiovascular measures, and coordination. R. rosea increased essential energy metabolites, adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and creatine phosphate in the muscle and brain mitochondria . It may also enhance the ammonia reassimilation and energy metabolism of the cell by increasing ATP, ribonucleic acid (RNA), protein, and amino acid synthesis. R. rosea, like other adaptogens, enhanced thyroid function without causing hyperthyroidism. In addition, the thymus gland functioned better and was protected from the involution that occurs with aging. Egg maturation was enhanced in rats and an anabolic effect in males (increased muscle building and gonad strengthening similar to effects of low-dose testosterone) was observed in a number of species. Administration of rhodosin (extract of R. rosea) to sexually mature female mice, reduced the resting period from 3.8 days (control) to 2.2 days (rhodosin treated). In the majority of rhodosin treated animals, the number of growing follicles, the oocyte volumes, the accumulation of RNA in oocyte cytoplasm, the proliferation of the lining and glandular cells of the uterine horns, and the preparation of uterine mucosa for fertilization all increased.

On a visit to the garden of our friend Merren we discovered this rare and interesting fruit tree, the Buddah's hand citron. It is grown in Asia where there are many cultivars and variations of this plant and it was exciting to find it growing so well in Sydney.
The gnarled fruit, when mature, looks like a hand with fingers. The fruit pictured is still to mature and further develop its finger like protuberances.
Here is a picture of the mature fruit, a closed hand variety.
The fruit ripens in late autumn to early winter and is used in a variety of ways.
Like other types of citron the Buddah's hand citron can be is used to make delicious candied peel as it is mainly thick rind with very little moisture and no seeds. It can be infused in syrup or vodka to make citrus flavoured drinks and the zest can be used to flavour a variety of foods and for making preserves and marmalade.
The fruits are very fragrant and are often kept in a bowl to perfume the air with their sweet citrus fragrance.
It is used as an offering for Buddhist religious practice and in China is a symbol of happiness, longevity and good fortune.
In Asia the skin from the green fruit is dried and used medicinally.
The tree is small and shrubby in habit with oblong leaves and fruit that matures to between 15 – 30 cm. It is propagated by grafting.
Like all members of the citrus family it prefers full sun and good drainage and protection from frosts. Fertilise during the growing season. Fruit is generally harvested from May to September.
This is a really interesting plant to add to your garden, look out for it.

Yom Hashoah Ceremony Emphasizes Family, Unifies YU Community
By: Noam Feifel | News | May 10, 2016
A somber atmosphere pervaded Wilf Campus's Lamport Auditorium this past Wednesday night, May 4th, as it hosted Yeshiva University's annual Yom Hashoah ceremony.
The dimly lit auditorium filled quickly, as Yeshiva and Stern students alike piled in for the evening's commemorative programming.
Before the event commenced, a blaring siren sounded and instantly gripped the room, similar to the one heard throughout Israel on this day to commemorate the Holocaust's fallen.
YU acapella group The YStuds followed by delivering powerful renditions of both the American and Israeli national anthems to begin the ceremony.
Holocaust survivor Martin Greenfield then greeted the audience. "How lucky you are to be the future of our people here in America," he told the crowd full of college students. "The safest place to be." He stressed how privileged YU students are to be part of such an institution, and commended America as a safe haven for modern Jewry.
His opening remarks were followed by an on-stage interview, conducted by senior Yedidyah Weiss, who serves as President of YU's Student Holocaust Education Movement (SHEM). Mr. Greenfield touched upon childhood memories, recalled his experiences in the Holocaust, and shared stories of his family, a theme that would be revisited many times throughout the evening. He urged the young crowd to realize how fortunate their situation is in America, a place where they could they could live happily with their loved ones and create the future that they desired for themselves.
Though the moment was serious and topic grave, Mr. Greenfield kept the mood lighthearted with his frequent quips, animated personality, and bright red socks that illuminated the stage.
Rabbi Hanoch Teller, renowned speaker and author, carried on the programming, continuing to discuss the importance of family, and its role within our lives. "Our message is family," he preached, "which we have to carry on and which we must cherish and appreciate every moment, especially at YU, which is itself a family." Urging the crowd to internalize and appreciate how significant family relations are, he encouraged students to imagine a devastating reality of having family stripped from their sides, a reality that so many Jews experienced during the Holocaust.
This message resonated amongst students in the audience. "Rabbi Teller's words made me really stop and think, and realize how lucky I am to have my whole family not only around me, but also healthy and happy," offered Syms Sophomore Binyamin Zirman. "The stories you hear about the Holocaust really put everything into perspective."
After Rabbi Teller provided scholarly insight and moving anecdotes from behind the podium, audience members, including grandchildren of Mr. Greenfield, were called up to the stage. One by one, they lit six candles, each representing approximately one million Jews who perished during the holocaust.
"We realize how valuable our relationships are, and need to appreciate that every Jewish person is family," offered SHEM Creative Designer Emma Mael, responsible for the evening's closing remarks. "Today, we stand strong as one family," she finished.
The YStuds, who retook the stage multiple times during the procession, gathered one last time to conclude its poignant performance with a recital of Ani Ma'amin, echoing throughout the auditorium until the procession came to a close.
"The whole evening was really moving," said Syms sophomore Eli Lipner. "I think it's so powerful how our school can become so unified over an event that attempted to do just the opposite."
After the auditorium emptied, and the event drew a close, Mael reflected on the evening. "I feel that the event went really well, and we gave over the unique message that we intended to." The Stern junior also noted that the program received very positive feedback from students, and that all the hard work that went into planning it, showed.
In a night that commemorated a tragic time in Jewish History, the YU community was able to join together and bond over the unparalleled value of family, while exuding a sense of unity and religious pride. The evening successfully provided a forum to remember the past, appreciate the present, and look forward to better future for Jewry all around.
