Stocks listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE) are typically seen as higher risk than their TSX-listed counterparts. However, when it comes to pot stocks, those that are on the CSE also present a lot more opportunity. It's not just because they're cheaper and therefore could rise more in value, but it's also because the TSX is much more restrictive.
For instance, you won't find a TSX-listed stock that has operations in the U.S. The TSX has in the past alerted companies that they risk being delisted from Canada's major exchange if they are involved in the U.S. cannabis industry. Since it is illegal federally, it would not be in compliance with U.S. laws and that would be a problem for TSX-listed stocks.
We've seen Aphria Inc (TSX:APHA)(NYSE:APHA) previously divest of its U.S. interests after initially not showing much concern about the potential issues it might've run into. Getting delisted is a big problem as it means losing access to some big investors and so it's not something that companies take lightly.
The CSE, however, has had a much laxer approach to companies that operate in the U.S.: it allows them. Stocks like MedMen Enteprises Inc (CSE:MMEN) and Curaleaf Holdings Inc (CSE:CURA) have significant operations in the U.S. and they have had no trouble trading on the Canadian exchange. The CSE has offered U.S. cannabis stocks a way to raise capital and to help grow their business while other exchanges have not been nearly as welcoming.
This gives CSE-listed stocks a big advantage over ones that are listed on the TSX. They present the best option today for investing in U.S. pot stocks. And given the growth potential and the early results we've seen from that market thus far, that's a big opportunity. With more States opening their doors to marijuana, the industry is only getting bigger and there's a lot more potential in the U.S. than there will be in Canada.
While Canadian cannabis companies may have been producing some strong, early results thanks to the recreational market being open for business, individual companies could quickly run into a ceiling, especially given how much competition there is. And with significant restrictions on advertising, it's very difficult for smaller players to get their names out there. That means that if you're not already one of the big pot stocks in the country, getting to that level is going to be very difficult.
And even for the ones that are already big, trying to build growth opportunities is what drives many to expand into other parts of the world. While the European markets present growth, it's a fraction of what can be achieved in the U.S., and it'll be more difficult and costly to move across the ocean and set up and manage operations. By not being able to tap into the U.S. marijuana industry, stocks on the TSX are going to face some bigger hurdles than those on the CSE. While the farm bill has at least opened the door for hemp products to be sold in the U.S., that's still a very small subset of the market.
Whether or not investors will get a better return from TSX or CSE-listed stocks is debatable, but for those looking to get into the U.S. cannabis industry, the CSE is the place to start looking.

NYUP.com Article: Marijuana businesses and NY labor unions: Cannabis Insider Q&A
A clause within the state's Marijuana Regulation and Taxation Act says anyone seeking a license must first execute a peace agreement with a "bona fide labor organization." That mandate has unions eyeing the tens of thousands of workers expected to enter the marketplace, said Nikki Kateman, the political and communications director for Local 338 RWDSU/UFCW.
"This is going to be a really good opportunity to build an industry from the ground up, and do it right," Kateman said.
Since 2016, Local 338 has secured collective bargaining agreements with six of New York's 10 registered medical marijuana companies, she said, and the union represents about 70% of the overall workforce — or roughly 500 employees.
Local 338 is banking on that experience to entice cannabis workers throughout the emerging market.
"Our ultimate goal is here: We want this industry to succeed because we want workers to succeed," she said.
Read the full article at
https://www.newyorkupstate.com/marijuana/2021/10/marijuana-businesses-and-ny-labor-unions-cannabis-insider-qa.html
Kateman will co-host a panel on cannabis industry staffing and recruitment as part of New York Cannabis Insider's half-day conference on Thursday, Oct. 28. (Tickets are available here). What follows is a Q&A in advance of the event. It is edited for length and clarity.

When Jessica was a teenager, her life was upended. Her mother was killed leaving her and her sister jumping from one home to another while in foster care.
At 17, Jessica was living on her own and navigating her final year of high school.
Without traditional family support, Jessica turned to Beyond Emancipation to help with her move towards adulthood.
Jessica worked towards making a brighter future for herself and got into Stanford University. Beyond Emancipation helped pay for her textbooks, which gave her money for other expenses, like fueling her car. She also received life coaching and emotional support as she grew from a teenager to an adult.
"These were the kind of expenses and support that most students would get from their parents if they were living in a normal family situation," Jessica said. "for me, B:E was able to offer that support. It was a huge help."
Today, Jessica has a master's degree from Stanford University.

#SOPA 24 hours protest is just the beginning
Thursday, 19 January, 2012
Even if the current incarnations of SOPA and PIPA laws are stopped, this will just be one of the many battles in a long war. The industries and lobbyists will keep on pushing. It is up to us to ensure future incarnations of SOPA and PIPA are not overreaching thus doing more harm than good.
As one of the lead Fair Copyright for Canada Calgary organizers who has written articles, sent in personal submissions for parliamentary copyright committees, and organized protests since December 2007, I try to do my part to help shape Fair Copyright laws in Canada. Given that experience, I know the anti-SOPA and anti-PIPA has to be the beginning and we should be prepared to keep up the effort for sometime to come.

Battles and War in the fight for Fair Digital Copyright for Canada – Government to Reintroduce Bill C-32 "In Exactly the Same Form"
Friday, 9 September, 2011
My heart sank reading Michael Geist, Sept 9, 2011, "Government to Reintroduce Bill C-32 "In Exactly the Same Form"" So my concerns and worries expressed in my Sept 5th, 2011 article, "Fair Digital Copyright for Canada – Insights from a new Phd thesis by Blayne Haggart" may have come true. But I am not giving up easily and Canadians shouldn't go down without a fight.
Here is an excerpt from Winnipeg Free Press, Sept 8, 2011, "Long-awaited copyright bill returns, but top court to wade in too" (emphasis added)
"One of the hotly debated issues around the bill, around how educators are able to use copyrighted materials, has now popped up before the Supreme Court.
The justices will be hearing a case about whether grade school teachers who make copies of textbooks for their students should be shielded from paying tariffs.
The same issue came up before the Commons committee last March. Groups who represent educators and provincial ministers of education would like to see more explicit protection for classroom copying included in the "fair dealing" section of the Act, while those who represent publishers say they deserve to be compensated for the textbooks they create.
NDP heritage critic Charlie Angus said the government should be listening to criticism of the bill and making changes before it is forced to by the courts.
"There are problems that need to be fixed and we can do this in a collaborative way or a confrontational way, but I would prefer to get this bill done," Angus said.
"I want to know that they're actually listening to the witnesses, because witnesses have identified some serious shortfalls with the bill that can be fixed." […]
Internal U.S. embassy cables posted by Wikileaks this year suggested former industry minister Maxime Bernier offered to show American officials a previous copyright bill before it was tabled in Parliament.
The cables also detailed how the office of another former industry minister, Tony Clement, suggested Washington include Canada on an international piracy watchlist in order to push legislative efforts along."

Fair Digital Copyright for Canada – Insights from a new Phd thesis by Blayne Haggart
Monday, 5 September, 2011
A while ago, I was interviewed by Blayne Haggart, a Carleton University Phd student, for his doctoral dissertation on digital-copyright reform in North America (Canada, Mexico, and United States). We talked about my my work with the Fair Copyright for Canada Facebook group plus organizing an impromptu citizens' meeting with the then Minister of Industry Hon. Jim Prentice in December 2007 (see report here and here).
I want to publicly congratulate Blayne for defending his Phd thesis successfully in May 2011. Congrats Dr. Haggart!
In my congratulation email to Blayne, I wonder out loud the dilemma we face. I wonder if we, the Canadians who have cared so much about Digital Copyright that we spent hours to protest and sent in our written submissions for government's various consultations over the years, have won these battles in defeating bad Digital Copyright bills but may ultimately lose the war to the lobby groups because of a Harper majority government?
I hope the Harper majority government will have learned to respect Canadians' views expressed in the previous failed Digital copyright reform. Even though I am not optimistic as the lobby groups are strong, I am willing to be hopeful, in fact, I have no choice but be hopeful. Because at this point, a new bad copyright bill will lead to new protests and I would rather be doing something else!
Dr. Blayne Haggart's Phd Thesis
Here is a link to Blayne's full Phd thesis "North American Digital Copyright, Regional Governance and the Potential for Variation" (provided to me by Blayne and reposted with permission).
Canadians may find "CHAPTER 4: CANADA AND THE INTERNET TREATIES: ABORTED IMPLEMENTATIONS" (page 248 of the Phd thesis PDF file, and page 237 of hard copy) very interesting to read. Here is "Facebook activism comes to Canada" an excerpt from Chapter 4 subsection "ii. Facebook activism comes to Canada" under section "III. 2007-08: Bill C-61 and the triumph of the U.S. lobby" (page 297 of the Phd thesis PDF file, and page 286 of hard copy),

Following his arrival at Industry Canada, Prentice attempted to introduce a DMCA- style copyright bill and ended up fomenting widespread public protests that panicked the government, confounded Cabinet colleagues and led to a six-month delay in the bill's introduction that rendered it collateral damage when the September 2008 election was called. This uprising vindicated Austin and Bernier's intuition about the political dangers of copyright reform. In the end, the Conservative's Bill C-61, like the Liberals' Bill C-60, never got beyond first reading.
In the October 16, 2007, Speech from the Throne, the Conservative government pledged to "improve the protection of cultural and intellectual property rights in Canada, including copyright reform" (Canada 2007). When the government placed An Act to Amend the Copyright Act on the Order Paper on December 10, 2007, observers of Canadian copyright expected that this new bill would be much closer to the DMCA than the Liberals' C-60 had been.216
What happened next caught everyone off guard. The first weekend in December, Geist set up a Facebook page, Fair Copyright for Canada (FCFC).217 The site's initial objectives were relatively modest: to inform people and to get people involved in opposing the bill. Its main demand was that the government listen to the public. Eventually, this demand became more specific: that the government hold public consultations on any new bill. Geist and others critiqued the upcoming bill by referring to it as the "Canadian DMCA." This approach not only focused on a bad policy (i.e., DMCA-like law would be bad for Canada) but linked the issue to the always-latent sentiment of Canadian anti-Americanism. This symbolic bricolage, which played to a long-standing Canadian prejudice, was made more potent given the fact that the United States, and U.S.-based industries were the main groups lobbying for this bill. It was such a powerful linkage that it necessitated a direct rebuttal from the government, which insisted that the bill was indeed "Made in Canada" and his opponents were practicing base anti-Americanism.
With Geist's Facebook page, the public interest in copyright that had been building for almost a decade exploded into view. After only a month (in January 2008), the page had almost 40,000 members; as of June 2010 it had just under 88,000 members. FCFC proponents argued these numbers represented frustration with the "resistance on the part of our policymakers to grapple with what's really going on and to produce solutions that are right for us," in the words of Toronto-based technology lawyer and FCFC member Rob Hyndman (Interview by author, April 22, 2008). In contrast, the government saw the protests as representing only a passionate minority causing "a lot of miscommunication, a lot of misinformation," according to Jean-Sébastien Rioux, Chief of Staff to then-Industry Minister Jim Prentice (Rioux, interview by author, February 26, 2009).
Individuals also used the FCFC page to organize quasi-independent lobbying efforts, local FCFC groups and grassroots-action campaigns (Geist, interview by author, May 14, 2008). One member, Kempton Lam, a Calgary blogger, software engineer, consultant and documentary maker, used FCFC to organize an impromptu meeting (covered by the mainstream media) with Prentice during a Christmas Open House in his riding office on December 8. Between 40 and 60 people showed up and were eventually able to talk with the minister.218 This Facebook-based activism and the mainstream media press it attracted worried Conservative MPs, who had to deal with irate constituents on an unfamiliar issue, while cabinet ministers who understood the technology were also reluctant to move forward on this copyright bill (Austin, interview by author, April 30, 2008)."
"This dissertation proposes an historical-institutionalist framework for understanding regional governance issues in general and North American governance in particular. Using digital- copyright reform as a test issue, it demonstrates that regional institutionalization can preserve differences and does not necessarily lead to regional policy convergence. This conclusion emerges from historical institutionalism's focus on understanding the interaction of the policy-relevant ideas, institutions and interests shaping a region, no matter on what "level" they may be located. Regional governance processes must be understood within their own particular historical contexts. This approach allows the researcher to account for relevant influences that are either downplayed or ignored in other approaches to regionalism.
With respect to copyright, this dissertation finds that U.S. digital-copyright policy is shaped decisively by its own domestic ideas, institutions and interests, with international and regional factors playing a minimal role. For Canada and Mexico, while the United States has attempted to influence copyright reform in its neighbours, both countries' copyright policies continue to be influenced significantly by domestic factors, and both countries continue to display significant copyright-policy autonomy. U.S. ability to influence its neighbours is constrained by the North American Free Trade Agreement's (NAFTA) guarantee of market access, which limits the U.S. ability to link copyright reform to improved access to its market, suggesting that NAFTA's rules play a role in maintaining policy autonomy and reducing the potential for policy convergence."
P.S. Blayne must be doing his job right since he received, in June 2010, some alarming and unseemly comments from Minister James Moore. [HT Blayne]
Unfortunately, I think many people who don't totally agree with Moore have sadly seen the dark sides of James Moore. In my case, I have shared my James Moore experiences in "Democratic right Twitter-blocked by @MPJamesMoore" (March 2011).

University of Calgary drops Access Copyright Licence
At this point, I've written way more about recent Canadian copyright law than I ever wished or planned to. But as a Canadian who cares about our digital future, I see I don't have any choice but to make my voice heard and to keep an eye on things!
With a Harper majority government, judging from what the government tried to do previously, I expect to find it will kowtow to the US government and the lobbyists represented industrial giants and again try to ignore the loud complains by Canadians in the various copyright consultations.
Here is some information on what the University of Calgary decided to do.
"* IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT, JULY 6, 2011 – The University of Calgary has notified Access Copyright, the Copyright Collective, that as of September 1, 2011, the university will no longer operate under the Interim Tariff as presented by the Copyright Board in December 2010.

Flawed Digital Copyright Modernization Act "Fixable"?
Thursday, 3 June, 2010
I've finished reading Michael Geist's "The Canadian Copyright Bill: Flawed But Fixable" and started to read the Bill C-32 (PDF file). Here is an excerpt from Michael's article,
"The foundational principle of the new bill remains that anytime a digital lock is used – whether on books, movies, music, or electronic devices – the lock trumps virtually all other rights. In other words, in the battle between two sets of property rights – those of the intellectual property rights holder and those of the consumer who has purchased the tangible or intangible property – the IP rights holder always wins. This represents market intervention for a particular business model by a government supposedly committed to the free market and it means that the existing fair dealing rights (including research, private study, news reporting, criticism, and review) and the proposed new rights (parody, satire, education, time shifting, format shifting, backup copies) all cease to function effectively so long as the rights holder places a digital lock on their content or device. Moreover, the digital lock approach is not limited to fair dealing – library provisions again include a requirement for digital copies to self-destruct within five days and distance learning teaching provisions require the destruction of materials 30 days after the course concludes."
My initial reaction was, "What the heck? Did the Government of Canada (the ministers) listen to Canadians in the Canada-wide online and offline consultations _at all_ ?"
May be I shouldn't have been surprised by the industrial biased when ministers Tony Clement and James Moore unveiled the bill at Electronic Arts instead of a more neutral location that might signified a more balanced approach to the two sets of property rights (rights holders' vs consumers').
Michael is more optimistic and generous and called the bill "Flawed But Fixable". I am more pessimistic and, I think, more realistic in not having high hopes. I will try to read and understand different parts of C-32 and feedback from different people.

Copyright Modernization Act (Bill C-32) introduced
Wednesday, 2 June, 2010
Update: – Have a look of Bill C-32 (PDF file). [HT Corey]
– Read Michael's "The Canadian Copyright Bill: Flawed But Fixable" to find out his first impression from attending the media lockup. Here is an excerpt,
"The digital lock provisions are by far the biggest flaw in the bill, rules that some will argue renders it beyond repair. I disagree. The flaw must be fixed, but there is much to support within the proposal. There will undoubtedly be attacks on the fair dealing reforms and pressure to repeal them, along with the U.S. and the copyright lobby demanding that their digital lock provisions be left untouched. If Canadians stay quiet, both are distinct possibilities. If they speak out, perhaps the bill can be fixed. I'll post an update of my 30 things you can do shortly."
Copyright bill would outlaw breaking digital locks [CBC] The following is an excerpt from CBC.
"The express legalization of format shifting, or the copying of content from one device to another, such as a CD to a computer or an iPod.
The express legalization of time shifting, or recording television programs for later viewing but not for the purposes of building up a library.
A "YouTube" clause that allows people to mash up media under certain circumstances, as long as it's not for commercial gain.
A "notice-and-notice" system where copyright holders will inform internet providers of possible piracy from their customers. The ISP would then be required to notify the customer that he or she was violating the law.
A differentiation of commercial copyright violation versus individual violation. Individuals found violating copyright law could be liable for penalties between $100 and $5,000, which is below the current $20,000 maximum.
New exceptions to fair dealing that will allow copyright violations for the purposes of parody, satire and education."
Will read the bill in full to find out more when it is posted online.
With this Notice Paper, looks like the bill is coming soon. Will have to take a closer look of the bill when it is tabled. [HT Michael Geist]

Canadian DMCA Bill Within Six Weeks?
Wednesday, 5 May, 2010
If Prof. Michael Geist is right in "PMO Issues The Order: Canadian DMCA Bill Within Six Weeks", then this is very troubling development as it means the Harper government has not listened to Canadians' concerns and the months of consultations across Canada were just for show.

Maleficent deluxe Adult Costume
Includes: dress, brooch & horns
Not included: shoes or sceptre
Maleficent is a fictional character from Walt Disney's 1959 film Sleeping Beauty and an official Disney Villain. She is the (self-proclaimed) Mistress of All Evil, who, after not being invited to a royal christening, curses the infant Princess Aurora to "prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and die" before the sun sets on her sixteenth birthday. The character is Disney's version of the wicked fairy godmother from the original French fairy tale and Tchaikovsky's famous ballet. She was voiced by Eleanor Audley in the 1959 film, but has since been voiced by Lois Nettleton for Disney's House of Mouse and by Susanne Blakeslee for the Kingdom Hearts video game franchise, in which Maleficent is a recurring villain.
Includes a beautiful black dress with bat wings, high collar with a black detachable brooch at the middle and a black headpiece with twisted horns, resembling the evil witch Maleficent.

A quarter of the cabinet flew out to the Davos World Economic Forum on Wednesday at a time when the government is struggling to resolve the Brexit impasse, prompting the Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn, to accuse them of wasting time at a "billionaires' jamboree".
Philip Hammond, the chancellor, is leading the British delegation of six senior ministers, which also includes the health secretary, Matt Hancock, and the culture secretary, Jeremy Wright.
Downing Street insisted that Davos was "an important event, an opportunity to discuss investment opportunities into the UK" as it sought to justify the presence of so many senior figures.
The prime minister had been planning to attend, but pulled out last week after the crushing rejection of her Brexit deal so that she could "focus on matters" at home. It is the first time May has passed up attending Davos since becoming prime minister in 2016. Her decision to remain at home meant that the leadership of the delegation passed to Hammond.
The chancellor, a Davos regular, will speak at Thursday's British business lunch, a closed-doors event that is a fixture on the summit calendar. Representatives of the 100-plus UK companies present are expected to attend the CBI event, traditionally held at the luxury Belvedere hotel.
It has emerged, however, that Hammond pulled out of the key closing session at the forum at the 11th hour, amid speculation that the Treasury objected to him being on the same platform as the economist Mariana Mazzucato. The session, a discussion on the global economy, is due to be chaired by the IMF boss, Christine Lagarde.
Hammond agreed to be part of the discussion months ago, and the Treasury said he had to withdraw due to pressure of work. Davos insiders, however, said the real reason was Mazzucato's attendance.
The trade secretary is in Davos for two days, trying to secure more "continuity of trade" with countries that have existing deals with the EU. These are limited agreements, and nothing like the 40 comprehensive free-trade deals the minister once predicted he would have signed by Brexit day in March.
Fox is meeting trade ministers from South Korea, Hong Kong, Canada, Colombia and Israel among others. He is also meeting other unspecified "top investors" and will host a round table with business leaders to demonstrate the UK's commitment "to the global rules-based system".
The UK government, as part of the push, has erected a huge banner that reads, "Free Trade is Great", complete with union flag branding, on the facade of the Belvedere hotel, the site of many Davos champagne parties.
Downing Street said the business secretary would be attending business and energy events and hosting investment meetings at the summit, on a three-day trip. Clark's two-day trip last year cost £2,008; unlike Hammond, he took a scheduled flight in order to get to the event.
The health secretary, whose job is primarily to run the NHS in England, is holding a solo press conference on Thursday morning, setting out a national action plan for the UK's efforts to tackle antibiotic resistance. Hancock is also expected to stay until Friday, meeting other global health ministers.
The international development secretary is in Davos as part of UK efforts "to lever in more private sector investment so that we alleviate extreme poverty", according to a spokesperson from her department.
"The UK delegation is focused on building partnerships with other nations and sectors to grow our economy and trading opportunities," the spokesperson added, without providing details of any meetings that the minister had lined up.
The culture secretary is in Davos "to promote the UK's world leading AI, cyber-security, and cultural industries" and is due to address the forum's "global AI council" in a private session on Thursday morning.
The minister is expected to meet Klaus Schwab, who runs the Davos World Economic Forum, Kent Walker, the senior vice-president of global affairs at Google, and Kai-Fu Lee, the chair and CEO of Sinovation Ventures, described by Whitehall sources as a "global thought leader".

Fabulously located close to the beach and village, I am off to check out this lovely beach house tomorrow. If you would like to as well, here are her details.
I love her sandstone foundations, fireplace and retaining walls. The bead boarding on the outdoor ceilings with exposed beams are also fabulous. I can't wait to swan around here tomorrow and live the dream, if only fleetingly.
Gorgeous is the perfect word for this house!!!
it a bit and close to the beach = where I want to be.
This is a stunning home. One of the nicest you have featured (from the inside).

The development environment has been running fine with the carbon-based Graphite (latest release) but I'm not preparing the actual production system and I was wondering if the Ceres-based 1.1 is worth a try?
Obviously we do care about the data but I was wondering if the branch is good enough for production? Or is it better just to keep going with the carbon and plan the switch to ceres in the more mature future?
You'll be best off at the moment planning to switch to Ceres in the near future. Ceres support is merged in here if you want to play with it: http://github.com/mleinart/carbon/tree/graphite-megacarbon along with some changes to how Carbon is configured. The webapp version in master does support reading from it.
Thanks! The production setup is now with Carbon, we'll update to Ceres when the time will be right.

Q: Problema en función llamada imprimir5veces5 que muestra por consola 5 veces el número 5 El problema es el siguiente:
Definir una función llamada imprimir5veces5 que muestre por consola 5 veces el número 5.
El código que yo realicé fue el siguiente:

function imprimir5veces5() {
  for (let i = 0; i <= 4; i++) {
    console.log(5);
  }
}

imprimir5veces5();

Pero me da el siguiente error:

      **La función imprimir5veces5 debe iterar 5 veces**

Se los agradecería bastante si me pudieran ayudar. Por favor.

A: En las páginas donde se evalúan ese tipo de ejercicios solo se debe hacer el código que solicitan, en este caso una función llamada imprimir5veces5() y eso es todo. La página se encargará de ejecutar la función y evaluar el resultado.
En tu caso luego de declarar la función la estás ejecutando. Entonces la página ejecuta la función y eso produce las primeras 5 impresiones luego se ejecuta de nuevo y eso agrega otras 5 y de ahí el error.

Some deliciously weird vocal funk from the Philpot label, occupying a similar part of the music universe to Jamie Lidell or Bodily Functions-era Matthew Herbert, coloured by bloopy, minimal beat constructions and flickers of Rhodes piano. B-side 'Modernme' ditches the vocal and spurts forth a good old-fashioned drum machine-fuelled beat propped up by jolts of synth squelches and piercing stabs. Finally, label co-founder Michel Baumann supplies a remix of 'Modernist' under his Soulphiction moniker, partially preserving the vocal, but focussing on no-nonsense skeletal techno minimalism. Ace.


Many of our (potential) customers ask us whether we are accredited.The answer is YES we are! However, it is not clear to everyone what this accreditation implies and what the added value of an accredited certification body is. Therefore: a short explanation on the subject of accreditation.
Which accreditation body is accepted?
Each Member State has one accreditation body, or "notified body". For example The Netherlands has the RvA, Germany has the DAkkS and England the UKAS. All these accreditation bodies are affiliated with the IAF/MLA: an international establishment that registers all notified bodies and issues mandatory documents on a globale scale. It is possible that a certification body is accredited by multiple establishments, as long as they are registered with the IAF/MLA and are therefore internationally recognised.
What does an accreditation mean?
An accreditation body is designed to monitor the certification bodies in a professional, impartial and independent manner and can also be known as a conformity assessment body. The certification bodies are assessed through tests on, among others, national (NEN, DIN & BS), European (EN) and international (ISO and IEC) standards. The aim is to give the customer confidence and to have this trust be justified by an official institution. The accreditation body shall review the certification body at least once a year. In this review all operation processes and the qualification of the auditors will be assessed.
An accreditation may be granted after an extensive procedure for different standards. The certification body is entirely free to have not only the conformity assessment accredited for various industries, but also the EN-ISO/IEC 17021:2015, i.e. ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and/or ISO/IEC 27001. Please note that an accreditation is not an obligation and certificates may also be granted by non-accredited, certification bodies.
QMS International has been accredited in Germany since 2005 and results therefore under the German accreditation body DAkkS, part of the Bundesministeriums für Wirtschaft und Energie (BMWI). QMS International's processes are assessed by the DAkkS several times annually. In addition, the accreditation body demands various witness audits. This means that the accreditation body may also carry out witness audits at customers locations and their systems.
For QMS International, getting accredited means that our processes are assessed, justified and confirmed by the DAkkS and are internationally registered under the IAF. Something we are very proud of!

Permits should never be placed on the windshield, the only information that should be placed on the windshield is the vehicle registration and inspection stickers.
If a permit holder wishes to transfer a permit to a different vehicle, or there is a change of license plates on a vehicle with a permit, the new license plate number and vehicle identification number must be reported to the City Clerk. A new permit will be issued without charge, only if physical remnants of the old permit are returned. If the physical remnants of the old permit are not returned, the new permit will only be issued if there is an eligible permit available for the property, at a cost of $45.

The 1920–21 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team represented Georgetown University during the 1920–21 NCAA college basketball season. John O'Reilly coached the team in his seventh season as head coach. Georgetown was an independent and played its home games at Ryan Gymnasium on the Georgetown campus in Washington, D.C. and finished the season with a record of 10-4.

Season recap

On-campus Ryan Gymnasium, where the Hoyas had played their home games since the 1914-15 season, had no seating, accommodating fans on a standing-room only-basis on an indoor track above the court. This precluded the accommodation of significant crowds, providing the self-sustaining Basketball Association with little revenue with which to fund the teams travel expenses, and Georgetown averaged no more than three road games a year from the 1918-19 season thrtough the 1926-27 season in order to keep travel to a minimum. The 1920-21 teams only road trip outside of Washington was to play schools in Pennsylvania at the end of the season.

The Hoyas home winning streak at Ryan Gymnasium reached 34 games at the end of this season, dating back to a victory against Bucknell on the last day of the 1916-17 season; it would reach 52 before finally coming to an end during the 1923-24 season. Highlights of the home season at Ryan included Georgetowns upsets of Georgia Tech and North Carolina, two of the most highly regarded teams in the United States at the time. Georgetown also defeated crosstown rival George Washington twice this season, giving the Hoyas a 14-game winning streak against George Washington – 10 of the wins at Ryan Gymnasium – dating back to 1915.

Junior forward Jack Flavin was the teams highest scorer, scoring about a third of the teams points. An excellent shooter, he averaged 12.5 points per gane, and scored a total of 175 points.

Junior guard Andrew "Andy" Zazzali played in all 14 games, averaging 4.8 points per game and scoring a total of 65 points. He played an excellent defense during the season; over a stretch of five games that included games against nationally renowned St. John's, North Carolina, and Georgia Tech, his defense played a major role in holding opponents to an average of less than six points in the first half.

Sophomore forward Paul Florence was the only new player on the team, which had finished with a 13-1 record the previous season. He was a very accurate shooter, and despite being surrounded by veterans led the team in its season-opening 10-game winning streak. He finished second in scoring, appearing in 12 games, scoring 72 points, and averaging 6.0 points per game for the season.

The team won its first 10 games, nine of them at home and one across town against George Washington. It then finished the season by losing all four games on its only road trip to end with a 10-4 record.

O'Reilly fell ill after this season and was unable to coach the Hoyas for the next two seasons. He returned to the head coaching position in time for the 1923-24 season.

Roster

Sources

Georgetown players did not wear numbers on their jerseys this season. The first numbered jerseys in Georgetown mens basketball history would not appear until the 1933-34 season.

Senior forward Bill Dudack later served as the Hoyas head coach during the 1929-30 season.

It was common practice at this time for colleges and universities to include non-collegiate opponents in their schedules, with the games recognized as part of their official record for the season, so the January 24, 1921, game against a United States Army team from Camp A. A. Humphreys in Virginia counted as part of Georgetowns won-loss record for 1920-21. It was not until 1952, after the completion of the 1951-52 season, that the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) ruled that colleges and universities could no longer count games played against non-collegiate opponents in their annual won-loss records.
